Its hard to miss Christopher
Mahoney when visiting the San
Carlos Charter Learning Center.
The 43-year-old director of the
school is much taller than the stu-
dent body most of whom are
somewhere between 5 to 13 years
old. Also, especially since returning
from the summer, he has a yellow-
ish tint to his skin and eyes that the
children find hard to ignore.
Mahoney doesnt mind. In fact, he
enjoys the honesty of the children
its a break from thinking about
the serious reason behind the unique
skin tone.
Mahoney was first diagnosed
with primary sclerosing cholangitis,
known as PSC, in 2003. The chron-
ic liver disease reached a critical
level this spring. In March, he was
put on the liver donor transplant list.
Mahoney kept the diagnosis secret
until returning this summer when he
could no longer hide the effects.
Now, Mahoney is on a transplant
list. His wife and supportive friends
are working on getting his name on
the list of other hospitals and work-
ing out possible travel plans should
that option become available. And,
hes actively looking to inform peo-
ple about donor options. There is, of
course, the option to register as a
donor after death. Live donors are
also an option for liver transplant
patients. Anyone interested in being
a live donor for Mahoney must be
healthy, between 18 to 55 years old,
have a type A or O blood type (neg-
ative or positive), a body mass index
under 30 and current health insur-
ance.
Talking about organ donation
wasnt what Mahoney thought
would be part of his life.
He grew up in the Boston area.

County supervisors are ready to
adopt a $1.88 billion budget, up
more than $48 million from the doc-
ument recommended earlier this
year because of revisions that
include revenue from a new vehicle
rental business tax passed by voters
in June.
The Board of Supervisors on
Tuesday is set to sign off on the s-
cal year 2012-2013 budget that is
largely the same as that considered
during the week-long June budget
hearings but that adds back 21 posi-
tions and adjusts several funds and
departments to accommodate new
revenue and expenses. The tweaked
budget also increases county
reserves by $28.3 million and only
requires $11,730 in county costs.
The budget does not include any
major state budget reductions and
any adjustments needed because of
the November state sales tax meas-
ure will be considered later in the
year.
One major addition to the coun-
tys nances is $6 million in revenue
for the new tax on vehicles rented in
the unincorporated areas, primarily
at San Francisco International
Airport, which kicked in July 1.
Voters, which also defeated two
other tax measures, passed the 2.5
percent vehicle tax during the June 5
primary and it will bring in an esti-
mated $8 million annually. The $6
million adjustment represents the
rst three quarters.

Some of the areas most congest-

go down the line of bowls on a table
adding a little of this herb and some
of that spice to jars before passing
them across the table.
Rachel Gaeta takes the jar, puts a
lid on it and shakes it, mixing the
concoction inside. Then, with the
help of a funnel, she carefully put
the spice mixture into a smaller jar
before placing a lid on the chili pep-
per dip mix.
Its hand-packed with love,
Gaeta said.
The chili mix is one of many put
together using herbs grown on the
Filoli property. This time of year the
Herb and Vinegar Committee goes
into overdrive creating mixtures to
be sold during the spring and those
only available during Holiday
Traditions, Filolis top fundraiser
a nine-day event that combines
music, dinner, dancing and shop-
ping that kicks off in November.
Once a week, the group comes
together to gather and dry herbs or
make flavorful mixes. Holiday
Traditions is a time to showcase
some of the harder-to-get and
brand-new mixes from the group,
lovingly called the Spice Girls. This
year, the ladies have some new
recipes to share.
It isnt difcult to nd the Spice
Girls. Cumin, cayenne pepper,
oregano and other herb smells ll
the room as soon as one nears the
kitchen in the Filoli House Monday

some ladies work to mix the dried

Green Days Armstrong
getting treatment
NEW YORK Green Days Billie
Joe Armstrong is headed to treatment for
substance abuse.
Sundays announcement by the
bands rep comes after the 40-year-old
frontman had a meltdown onstage at
the iHeartRadio Music Festival in Las
Vegas on Friday. As Green Day was
wrapping up its performance during
the all-star, two-day concert,
Armstrong profanely complained that
the bands time was being cut short.
One minute left, one minute (exple-
tive) left. Youre gonna give me (exple-
tive) one minute? ... Im not (expletive)
Justin Bieber, you (expletives)! he
yelled (although Bieber was not part of
the nights festivities).
Armstrong smashed his guitar before
leaving the stage.
In a statement to The Associated
Press, Green Day apologized to those
they offended at the iHeartRadio
Festival and said its set was not cut
short by Clear Channel, the host of the
two-day festival.
The Grammy winning band also is
canceling some of its promotional
appearances. It is due to release the
album Uno on Tuesday, the follow-
up to 21st Century Breakdown,
released three years ago. Uno is the
first in a trilogy of albums; the second
is to be out in November, and the last
in January. The
band is due to kick
off a nationwide
tour Nov. 26 in
Seattle.
Armstrong was
hospitalized in early
September in
Bologna, Italy, for
an undisclosed ail-
ment, but recovered
well enough to per-
form at the MTV Video Music Awards
on Sept. 6. Since then, the band has
made a series of performances, includ-
ing a Good Morning America per-
formance and a New York City concert
for the launch of Nokia Music on Sept.
15. No interviews of the band were
allowed that evening, but the band
chatted with fans and Nokia and AT&T
executives before performing for about
two hours.
Its unclear what Armstrong is
receiving treatment for; in 2003, he
was arrested for DUI, and has
acknowledged in the past taking vari-
ous drugs but has said he now eschews
them.
Green Day is one of rocks top acts
and had huge success with its 2004
politically charged album American
Idiot, which went on to become a
Broadway musical.
Armstrong performed for a stretch in
the musical.
Most recently, he was a mentor on
the NBC talent competition The
Voice.
Sharon Stone checked out
before Milan auction
MILAN Sharon Stone helped raise
more than $1.1 million for AIDS
research at a charity auction, hours after
a brief trip to a hospital during Milan
Fashion Week.
The 54-year-old Stone experienced
migraine-related symptoms after the
Fendi runway show Saturday night, was
examined as a precaution and was given
a clean bill of health, the amfAR
Foundation for AIDS Research said in a
statement Sunday.
The foundation denied earlier reports
that she had fainted.
At the charity auction Saturday night,
Stone was in ne form, cracking jokes as
she enticed higher bids.
"Wild horses couldn't keep her away,"
the foundation said.
Designer Roberto Cavalli paid
$45,500 for a new interpretation of the
1972 Bocca sofa shaped like lips after
Stone reclined on the piece, demonstrat-
ing its comfort.
`'You can kiss my a-- anytime," she
joked with Cavalli, who was sitting at
Stone's table.

T
here are times when the world passes
you by unnoticed. This has been the
case of a piece of territory that once
was well known to most of the citizens of the
Peninsula. El Camino Real (Mission Road)
was blazed in the late 1700s as a means of
traveling from the Mission Santa Clara (San
Jose) and Mission Dolores (San Francisco). A
section of this well traveled road presented a
problem due to the Colma Creek yearly uc-
tuations little water in the summer and too
much water in the winter.
Nevertheless it had an attraction that was
exploited by the early soldiers and church
ofcials it was a good place to raise cattle
and horses they dearly needed. For more than
60 years this was its designated use raising
cattle and horses. In 1836, Jose Antonio
Sanchez was awarded this land for his service
to the Spanish and Mexican governments and
the land continued as a cattle ranch. His son,
Isidro, inherited the property when his father
died in 1843 and he lived on the land for a
while. But the lure of the good life in San
Francisco (Yerba Buena) was too appealing so
he moved to the big city to live. A piece of the
land along Mission Road was sold around
1850 and the 12-Mile House was built to serv-
ice the increased travel along this section of
the road. The ranch was sold to Mr.
Edmonson just after the 49er Gold Rush hit
California. Three years later, Charles Lux
bought it and the Miller-Lux Ranch was
formed. Mr. Lux built a palatial home along
the road and a small community called Baden
developed to furnish help for the cattle ranch.
Cattle was still king. In the late 1880s, Henry
Miller (Lux had died already), formed a part-
nership with Swift and Company for a meat
packing and land speculation faction. The
South San Francisco Land and Improvement
Company split up most of the land for house
lots and sold them to the workers of the area.
At this same time, Holy Cross Cemetery was
being developed to the northeast of the future
South San Francisco. Due to the increased
trafc and lack of facilities for the bereaved
that attended the burial service at Holy Cross
Cemetery, Brooks constructed an inn, called
Brooksville, across from the cemetery. It
became an immediate success and has served
countless thousands of travelers and cemetery
visitors since its development in 1894. It still
operates on Mission Road as Molloys.
When South San Francisco incorporated in
1908, the western border of the city became
Chestnut Avenue. Hillside Boulevard to the
Living on the Edge (tween Colma and SSF)

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A 37-year-old physical education teacher is hoping to nd a
bone marrow match to successfully ght acute lymphoblastic
leukemia.
San Mateo resident Eugene Borja, a husband and father of
two, was diagnosed with leukemia in April. Hes currently on
a medical leave from his job as a physical education teacher at
Our Lady of Mount Carmel School in Redwood City after
being admitted to the hospital Aug. 31. Now the family is
focusing on trying to nd a bone marrow donor. A bone mar-
row drive will be held in Brojas honor Sept. 30 at Hillsdale
High School.
Only 30 percent of patients nd donor matches from a rela-
tive, according with the National Bone Marrow Donor
Program website. The remaining 70 percent have a better
chance of nding a match with a person who is the same race
and ethnicity because tissue types are inherited. Borja is from
the U.S. territory of Guam. People who have a Pacic Islander
or Asian heritage are encouraged to get the swab test.
Registering is a simple cotton swab test and answering a few
questions. Potential donors must be 18 to 60 years old and in
good health.
Swab & Dance to Save a Life will be held from 10 a.m. to 3
p.m. Sunday, Sept. 30 at Hillsdale High School, 3115 Del
Monte St., San Mateo. Dance classes, music and a rafe will
be held. Also, there will be test kits to allow those interested in
registering for the National Marrow Donor Program. The on-
site test will be free. A master dance/hip-hop class will be
taught by Ronnie Reddick from 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. A
Zumba party fundraiser, by Gina Loba and Jennifer Sanchez,
will be held from 12:30 to 2 p.m. Registration is $5 to $25.

San Carlos woman
receives a high
academic honor
By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Things didnt always
work out the way Marilyn
Thomas had planned.
As a teen, she became
homeless as a result of her
parents substance abuse
problems. She welcomed
her son at 20 with plans of
starting a family which
fell through. But, she
used that moment as
inspiration to achieve the
one thing she had always hoped to do go
to and nish college. While enrolled in sci-
ence courses, Thomas noticed she was often
the lone black female in the class. Her interest
in why created a personal challenge for her to
work with programs encouraging students
who arent traditionally taking the science
path to stick with it. Recently, the work of the
37-year-old San Carlos resident was recog-
nized when she was chosen as the 2012
Trustee Emeritus Ali C. Razi Scholar, a a des-
ignation given to the highest-scoring recipient
of the William Randolph Hearst/California
State University Board of Trustees Awards.
She is the rst student from San Francisco
State University to receive this honor.
I didnt even know I was science minded,
Thomas said when retelling her first
encounter at College of Alameda, then
Caada College.
Thomas was born in San Francisco. Her
father, who had a drug prob-
lem, has never been played a
stable role in her life. The
family moved often during
Thomas childhood as her
mom would often change
jobs. At 13, the family moved
to the Peninsula and Thomas
enrolled at Mills High
School. It was the one school
at which she spent a signi-
cant amount of time.
While in high school,
Thomas mother began strug-
gling with addiction, speci-
cally with alcohol. At 15, her mother enrolled
in a rehabilitation program in San Francisco.
Thomas older brother tried to keep their
home together but it was too much for him. As
a result, she became homeless. Thomas would
basically stay with friends until she had worn
out her welcome an uncomfortable but

The city of San Carlos is consid-
ering a series of public art installa-
tions at its new medical center that
highlight the complex questions for
which many people particularly
patients seek answers and the
elements of daily life.
The citys Arts and Culture
Commission are recommending the
council accept the proposal by artist
Larry Kirkland for a series of
carved granite grates and a walkway
composed of question pavers. The
council will vote on the issue at
Monday nights meeting.
The public art installation is a
condition of the 2008 architectural
review permit granted for the Palo
Alto Medical Foundations new
medical center at 301 Industrial
Road. PAMF chose Kirkland and
the citys Arts and Culture
Commission simply gave him its
blessing, said Parks and Recreation
Director Doug Long.
The recommended gates are
meant to mimic the Chinese tradi-
tion of moon gates which are round
openings in walls to invite visitors
into beautiful gardens. The open-
ings of the San Carlos gates are the
shape of key holes to indicate the
way medical patients are looking
for the key to open the door of
understanding, according to a
memo to the council by Long.
The interiors will be engraved
with varying repetitive patterns with
hidden images of daily elements
like toys, equipment or tools to as
reminders of the uniqueness of the
individual.
On the ground, embedded granite
slabs will include graphically
arranged questions chosen by the
medical and city staff, according to
Longs report, that include ques-
tions that we all ask ourselves.
Kirkland, according to his web-
site, is known for large-scale, multi-
dimensional installations for com-
munity and business entities,
including municipal buildings, tran-
sit hubs, libraries, universities and
urban parks and plazas.
If approved by the City Council,
the art will be part of a 192,260-
square-foot campus will include an
urgent-care center, 75 primary
physicians and specialists with the
capacity to increase to 120, an on-
site laboratory and pharmacy, space
for outpatient surgery and a cafe.
The City Council meets 7 p.m.
Monday, Sept. 24 at City Hall, 600
Elm St., San Carlos.

City considers art for new medical center
A series of carved granite grates and a walkway composed of question
pavers are proposed for the new medical center in San Carlos.
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO In most
courtrooms, spontaneous applause
could get you thrown out.
But in this San Francisco court,
its expected - and strongly encour-
aged for the defendants.
Bowls of hard candy rest in front
of the judges bench, as a reward for
the men and women making their
weekly court appearances and
attending group therapy. Almost
daily, the judge awards one standout
a $5 grocery store gift card - while
the gallery claps and cheers.
These scenes have played out
thousands of times at the
Community Justice Center, a novel,
4-year-old court system in the citys
rough-edged Tenderloin district. Its
one of about 40 community courts
around the United States that tackle
mostly low-level crimes in troubled
neighborhoods using judges - not
juries - to send defendants to drug
treatment, shelter and social servic-
es, instead of handing down nes
and time in overcrowded jails.
We go to the root of the prob-
lems rather than just throwing them
in jail, said the Community Justice
Centers lone judge, Lillian Sing.
But its not all carrots and no sticks.
When obviously drunk or drugged
defendants stagger into the court-
room, the judge swiftly sends them to
jail for a few days to sober up.
This is called tough love, Sing
recently told one teary-eyed defen-
dant as a deputy handcuffed him. I
dont want to see you die on the
streets.
U.S. Department of Justice of-
cials say community courts improve
public safety by focusing on the
crimes that are less high-prole but
affect day-to-day life. They say the
courts, along with similar rehabili-
tative courts, represent a shift away
from judges just herding people
through the system.
Judges started guring out they
could help solve problems, so there
was a switch to looking at outcomes
instead of process, said Kim Ball, a
senior policy adviser.
And unlike the thousands of spe-
cialized drug courts across America,
community courts are designed to
provide quicker, cheaper justice
while improving life in specific
neighborhoods or police precincts.
Defendants perform community
service in the neighborhoods where
they broke the law. Taggers must
paint over grafti. And shoplifters
are required to help distribute
clothes to the poor.
The movement toward communi-
ty courts began almost two decades
ago in New York City, which estab-
lished one in Midtown Manhattan to
crack down on prostitution, grafti
and other street crimes.

WASHINGTON President
Barack Obama, defending his for-
eign policy record at a time of anti-
American rage in the Muslim
world, fired back at suggestions
from Republican Mitt Romney that
the president has been weak with
allies and enemies alike.
In an interview airing the night
before Obama meets with other
world leaders at the United Nations,
the president said, If Gov. Romney
is suggesting that we should start
another war, he should say so.
It was Obamas most direct rebut-
tal yet to persistent skepticism by
his White House rival on his han-
dling of an unraveling situation in
the Middle East. Romney has
charged the U.S. stance has been
marred by miscalculations, mixed
messages and appeasement.
As far back as May, Romney was
condemning Obamas response to
unrest in Syria, dubbing it a policy
of paralysis and calling for more
assertive meas-
ures, such as
arming the
opposition to
Syrian President
Bashar Assad.
As deadly anti-
A m e r i c a n
protests erupted
earlier this
month in Libya
and elsewhere, Romney sought to
undercut what polling shows is a
signicant foreign policy edge for
Obama by calling the presidents
handling of the situation disgrace-
ful and decrying a lack of U.S.
leadership in the region.
In a companion interview to
Obamas appearance on CBS 60
Minutes, Romney broadened his
reproach to include Israel, criticiz-
ing Obamas failure to meet with
the U.S. allys head of state,
Benjamin Netanyahu, during the
annual U.N. gathering. Romney
called it a mistake that sends a
message throughout the Middle
East that some-
how we distance
ourselves from
our friends.
The White
House has said
scheduling pre-
cluded a meet-
ing between the
two leaders,
who wont be in
New York at the same time. With the
nal six weeks of a hard-fought
election hanging over the U.N. sum-
mit, Obama has opted out of face-
to-face meetings with any of his
counterparts not just Netanyahu
during his compressed U.N.
visit.
But Obama pushed back on the
notion that he feels pressure from
Netanyahu, dismissing as noise the
Israeli leaders calls for the U.S. to
lay out a red line that Irans
nuclear program mustnt cross to
avoid American military interven-
tion.
When it comes to our national
security decisions, any pressure that
I feel is simply to do whats right for
the American people, Obama said.
And I am going to block out any
noise thats out there.
In a wide-ranging interview con-
ducted the day after U.S.
Ambassador to Libya Chris Stevens
was killed in an attack on Benghazi,
Obama defended his foreign policy
successes, noting hed followed
through on a commitment to end the
war in Iraq and had nabbed al-Qaida
leader Osama bin Laden.
He also waxed optimistic that
winning a second term would give
him a mandate to overcome
obstructionism from congressional
Republicans whose No. 1 goal, he
said, has been to prevent his re-elec-
tion.
My expectation is, my hope is
that thats no longer their number
one priority, Obama said. Im
hoping that after the smoke clears
and the election seasons over that
that spirit of cooperation comes
more to the fore.
Romney, in an interview conduct-
ed last week, sought to deect atten-
tion from his running mate,
Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan, over
their differences in Medicare poli-
cy: Im the guy running for presi-
dent, not him.
While reaffirming his commit-
ment to lowering all income tax
rates by 20 percent, Romney
expressed no unease about his
refusal to offer specifics, such as
which loopholes and deductions
hed eliminate to pay for the
cuts.
The devils in the details. The
angel is in the policy, which is cre-
ating more jobs, Romney said,
adding that he doesnt want to see
overall government revenue
reduced.
Addressing the seemingly
unshakable charge of ip-opping
on policy issues, Romney pointed
the finger at Obama, noting his
changes of heart on gay marriage
and military tribunals for terrorism
suspects.
Obama responds to Romneys tough talk on Mideast
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo.
Written off by many in his own
party a mere month ago, Republican
Rep. Todd Akin has been slowly
rebuilding his Senate campaign
after apologizing for inammatory
remarks about pregnancy and rape.
Now Akin is approaching a critical
week that could determine whether
his re-emerging campaign can gain
enough momentum to put Missouri
back in the battleground column as
Republicans attempt to win control
of the Senate from Democrats.
Tuesday is the deadline for Akin to
get a court order to drop his challenge
of Democratic Sen. Claire McCaskill.
But Akin says he wont do so.
Instead, Akin plans to ramp up his
campaign. Hes holding a fundraiser
Monday with former Republican
presidential candidate Newt
Gingrich. Hes addressing a poten-
tially inuential group of pastors
Tuesday morning. Then as the drop-
out clock ticks down, hes kicking off
a statewide bus tour for his Senate bid
that will include venerable conserva-
tive activist Phyllis Schlay.
I believe the state of the cam-
paign is looking better and better,
Akin said Friday after engaging
McCaskill in their rst debate and
then rallying on the Missouri
Capitol lawn with supporters of a
newly formed women-for-Akin
coalition.
Akin has apologized repeatedly
since a TV interview aired Aug. 19
in which he suggested that womens
bodies have a natural defense
against pregnancy in cases of legit-
imate rape.

OPINION 9
Say no to 7-Eleven
Editor,
I was dismayed and disheartened to
read about the proposed 7-eleven the
former Hilltop Market site (San Mateo
Drive nd Bellevue avenue). After all the
work that has been done with the help of
the city, volunteers and residents with
the AOD program (North Central San
Mateo Alcohol and Other Drug
Coalition) in deterring our teens from
drug and alcohol abuse, this is a huge
step backwards.
Back in the 1970s, Hilltop Market
was a popular spot for San Mateo High
students. Do we want a 7-Eleven to now
be their hangout spot? I am well aware
of the issues around the 7-Eleven on
Rollins Road in Burlingame. Do we
really want this in our neighborhoods?

Beware DMBs promises
Editor,
I read that Cargills developer, DMB
Associates, is busy breaking promises
they made to residents of Mesa, Ariz.
Here in Redwood City, wed be wise to
remember this when they come back
with a new plan to destroy our Bayfront.
Three years ago, voters in Mesa were
promised the moon when they approved
more than $125 million in tax breaks for
a huge upscale resort development. Now
DMB and their partners have nally
admitted that their plan has more or less
collapsed.
Cargill and DMB have promised to
come back with a new proposal to build
housing in the salt ponds. I am sure they
will have a shiny new slogan and PR
campaign, because the 50/50
Saltworks plan was a total failure. But
if this developers history is any indica-
tion, voters should not trust either of
these companies promises.

Take a stand in November
Editor,
Public unions own California politi-
cians. This can be evidenced by the lame
excuse of a pension reform that was just
passed by our governor. The taxpayers
pay public servants through state and
local taxes. Public employees are then
forced to give a percentage of this
money to support Democratic candidates
who are sympathetic to their demands,
and ultimately the Democratic
Legislature makes sure the interest of
unions remains a number one priority.
Nice cozy relationship, isnt it?
Public unions are using our taxpayer
money to get their candidates elected.
Does anyone else see a conict of inter-
est here? Does the taxpayer have a seat
at the table when negotiating contracts
with unions? No. These negotiations are
held behind closed doors, and we are
purposely kept in the dark. Dont be dis-
couraged: I want to give you the good
news. You have the power to stop this
come November and send a clear mes-
sage to Sacramento and your local gov-
ernment. Vote no on all tax initiatives
that are on your ballot. Stop rewarding
government inefciency with higher
taxes until lawmakers demonstrate that
they can manage our money responsibly.
If you are worried about education, tell
your representatives that you would
rather educate our children than build a
really fast train that nobody wants or
needs.

Retaining primary health care
Editor,
The Associated Press story, Forget
Marcus Welby: Todays docs want a real
life, in the Sept. 4 edition of the Daily
Journal, describes a new breed of doc-
tors drawn to technology, group prac-
tices and lifestyle specialties that pay
well while allowing time for family and
extracurriculars.
As a medical student with debt and a
baby on the way, Im attuned to the pow-
erful incentives that drive decision-mak-
ing among medical graduates. But as a
masters student in public health as well, I
worry about the implications on popula-
tion health of this trend taken to its logical
extreme. Primary care, the foundation of
our health care system, is what these doc-
tors are eeing in search of, a real life,
and as they do so they exacerbate a short-
age of primary care doctors expected to
reach 21,000 by 2015.
Obamacare, if it survives the upcom-
ing elections, will continue to offer
small inducements in an attempt to
revive primary cares appeal tax
breaks to providers, marginally
increased Medicare payments and
expanded loan forgiveness programs.
But these alone will not turn the tide.
Unless we can nd a way to make pri-
mary care as attractive as dermatology,
the real life of future doctors may
come at the expense of the health of the
most vulnerable in our communities.

The truth behind the
liberal media
Editor,
Conservative pundits complain about
the liberal media bias they see in this
country. The truth is, though, all of
Americas broadcasting companies are
owned by conservatives, with the only
exception being CBS (Columbia
Broadcasting System). It is the only,
truly liberal broadcasting company
because it has been around for much
longer than the others. This is a country
which mostly thinks Democratic but just
doesnt show up to vote on election day.
The other networks broadcast a liberal
view because they know this is the
demographic that is watching. After all,
why would such ultra-rich companies
like CNN support the Democratic Party
that would take away more of its prots
through taxes than the Republican Party,
which would keep them going on easy
street?

The Journal Times, Racine, Wis.
W
hen you buy a new home,
theres been a cherry on top
for years to help seal the
deal.
That incentive has been the mortgage
interest deduction, where homeowners
get to write off the interest they pay on
their homes.
The argument is it helps incentivize
homeownership and helps millions of
Americans achieve the dream of buying
a home for their families.
But following discussion at the
Republican National Convention, there
is concern that the deduction could go
away. Its a legitimate concern, if that
really is the case.
If you eliminate the deduction entire-
ly, all of a sudden millions of people
will see their tax bills go up by poten-
tially thousands of dollars or more.
Its thousands that people clearly can-
not afford, based on the number of peo-
ple ling foreclosures and unable to
pay property taxes.
Luckily, even though Republicans
didnt say in their platform they would
protect the deduction at all cost, they
said, We strongly support tax reform;
in the event we do not achieve this, we
must preserve the mortgage interest
deduction.
In that case, with a simpler tax code,
even though homeowners wouldnt get
a big bump in their checking account
after tax day, it would mean more
money in their paychecks throughout
the year, because less money would
come out initially.
As long as the bottom line ends up
the same for homeowners, that is OK.
Its vital, that in the end, homeowners
taxes especially those for the middle
class should come out the same with
or without the deduction. If that is not
possible, then keep the deduction. ...

A big vote for
the county
O
nce again, or at last, depending on your perspec-
tive, the Board of Supervisors is going to allow
voters to decide whether we should continue our
tradition of at-large elections or elect supervisors by dis-
trict, as is done in all other California counties. County vot-
ers rejected a change twice in the past, in 1978 and 1980. A
citizens charter review committee had recommended put-
ting this issue before the voters last year but the supes, with
one exception, did not accept the recommendation. The
boards newest member, Dave Pine, has been campaigning
for district elections for years. But in June, the Board of
Supervisors changed its mind and decided to put the issue
on the November ballot. A
civil rights lawsuit against
the county and a move by
the community college dis-
trict to also consider district
versus at-large elections was
the impetus. Now it will be
the voters turn to decide.
For a long time, I have
believed that at-large elec-
tions exemplified good gov-
ernment practices. It has
been a goal of reformers for
many years. District elec-
tions were once seen as a
vehicle for corruption and
cronyism. Countywide elections create better governing
because people are elected to represent the greater good
rather than just parochial interests. However, the new push
for district elections resonates after the poor showing of
two Latino candidates in the last board election.
I think we were all surprised when Memo Morantes,
member of the San Mateo County Board of Education, and
Carlos Romero, East Palo Alto councilman, garnered so
few votes even after an endorsement by U.S. Rep. Jackie
Speier, D-San Mateo. Romero received 8.7 percent of the
vote; Morantes 7.92 percent. They came in fourth and fifth
in a six-person race. Neither won in the fourth district they
hoped to represent. In our present countywide system, can-
didates must still reside in the district up for grabs even
though the vote is countywide. And District Four is the
one district where a Latino and an African-American have
previously served Ruben Barrales and the current occu-
pant Rose Jacobs-Gibson, who is termed out. It is a district
with a substantial Latino population. Many thought
Morantes, especially, had a good chance of surviving the
primary. But even the combined votes of Morantes and
Romero were not enough. As a result, some feel the only
way a minority candidate can win today is to compete in
just his or her own district and not the more expensive
countywide process. Maybe. Maybe better known candi-
dates like Mayor Sal Torres of Daly City or Mayor Alicia
Aguirre of Redwood City could win a countywide race.
After watching U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio, from Florida,
and San Antonio Mayor Julian Castro give stellar speeches
at the Republican (Rubio) and Democratic (Castro) conven-
tions you could easily envision a future race for president
between the two. Times are changing. And voters may now
feel its time for a change in how we elect our supervisors.
***
The two candidates for the board who were the top two
vote getters in June and are on the ballot this November are
Warren Slocum and Shelly Masur. In some ways this is a
contest between the old and the new. Slocum has been a
county administrator for the past 24 years serving as asses-
sor-county-clerk recorder and elections chief. Masur has
been on the Redwood City Elementary School Board for
seven years. Each has a long list of endorsements which
you can check on line. If you dont know the candidates
and are not sure how to vote, the best thing to do is to
attend a candidates night and make your own decision
based on their performance. The League of Women Voters
will be holding such a candidates event on Thursday
evening, Oct. 4, at the San Mateo Main Library at 7 p.m.
***
The League of Women Voters takes positions on state and
local issues after its members study and vote on whether to
say yes or no or not take a position at all. The League has
had an ongoing study of country government but is not tak-
ing a position on district elections. President Jackie
Jacobberger says League members are divided on the issue.
So it may be confusing to see former League president
Ruth Nagler signing the argument against district elections
as a former member of the San Mateo League. Nagler was
president in 1959-61 and at that time most League mem-
bers were probably against district elections. But times
have changed.

BUSINESS 10
By Bernard Condon
Ben Bernanke hopes his latest plan to
stimulate the economy will get you to
buy stocks and other risky assets. Maybe
you should. People who did that after
two similar Federal Reserve efforts are
sitting on big gains today.
But the odds of fat prots arent look-
ing as good this time, and seem to be
getting worse.
Stocks rose sharply before the Fed
chairman announced his plans Sept. 13
instead of falling, as they did before the
two previous efforts, suggesting less
room for gains now.
Meanwhile, the world economy is
slowing and Wall Street analysts are cut-
ting estimates for future corporate prof-
its. They expect them to fall this quarter
from a year earlier, the rst drop since
just after the Great Recession ended 3?
years ago.
The market seems like its climbing
on central bank intervention rather than
fundamentals, says Gary Flam, chief
stock manager at Bel Air Investment
Advisors. Im not a buyer right now.
The outlook for other risky assets like
high-yield bonds is darkening, too.
The highly indebted companies that
issue these bonds, popularly known as
junk bonds, usually offer fat interest
payments to compensate investors for
the risk that the companies will default.
Not now. In response to previous Fed
stimulus plans, investors have poured
money into these bonds, driving prices
up and yields, which move in the oppo-
site direction, down to 6 percent, the
lowest on record. In the boom years
before the recession, the lowest yield
was more than two points higher.
We have a high-yield bond market
without yield, and the Feds ngerprints
are on this, says James Grant, editor of
the newsletter Grants Interest Rate
Observer. If debt prices turn out gross-
ly overvalued, wont it owe an explana-
tion for people who lost money?
Earlier this month, the Fed chairman
said the central bank would spend $40
billion each month buying mortgage
bonds until the economy strengthens,
and maybe even after. In its two previous
programs, called quantitative easing, the
Fed bought $2 trillion worth of Treasury
and mortgage bonds.
The idea is to frustrate holders of con-
servative assets, like Treasurys, so
theyll have no choice but to shift money
into riskier fare. As they do, prices will
rise, making people richer and willing to
spend more money. And that, at least in
theory, will speed economic growth.
Some critics argue the Fed has failed,
noting that the U.S. economy grew at
just 1.7 percent annual rate in the April-
June quarter. But you cant deny its
been successful at least in part: People
have moved money into riskier assets,
and prices have jumped.
Since the Federal Reserve launched its
rst bond-buying program in November
2008, high-yield bonds have gained 68
percent, or 14.5 percent annually, 1.5
times their typical return, according to
Martin Fridson of FridsonVision, a high-
yield research firm. Meanwhile, the
Standard & Poors 500 index, in price
alone, has gained 85 percent.
In 2012, the S&P 500 has risen 16 per-
cent, almost all of it since June in antic-
ipation of the Feds new stimulus.
Its possible stocks will continue to
climb. The S&P 500 is trading at 14
times its expected per-share earnings for
the next 12 months, which doesnt
appear expensive. This earnings multiple
was lower meaning stocks were
cheaper at the start of the rst Fed
stimulus, in November 2008, but only
slightly: It was 12.9, according to S&P
Capital IQ, a research rm. At the start
of the Feds second round of bond-buy-
ing, in November 2010, the S&P traded
at 14 times, the same as today.
But stocks seemed just as expensive
then as they do now because expecta-
tions for earnings then were low. Since
the recovery began, Wall Street analysts
have mostly been scrambling to raise
their expectations, not cutting them, as
they are now.
Risk is high to buy stocks
By Joshua Freed
It was possible to walk into a store
Saturday and buy an iPhone 5. But it
took some hunting.
Some stores reported having Apples
newest phone available for walk-up cus-
tomers, though not all versions of it. A
random check of about a dozen stores
indicated that most were sold out.
A Verizon store in New York City said
the 32 and 64 gigabyte models, but not
the 16 GB version, were available. A
Sprint store in a suburb of St. Paul,
Minn., said all but the most expensive 64
GB iPhone 5s were sold out.
Before we were even scheduled to
open, we were pretty much out, said
Eric Rayburn, a worker at a Sprint store
in Phoenix.
The iPhone 5 went on sale Friday,
igniting intense interest around the
world. Apples website said phones
bought online would ship in three to four
weeks. Verizons website said they
would ship by Oct. 19.
Its hardly uncommon for supply
shortages to make it difcult to get new
iPhones in the first days after their

PITTSBURGH It sounds like a free-market success story:
a natural gas boom created by drilling company innovation,
delivering a vast new source of cheap energy without the gov-
ernment subsidies that solar and wind power demand.
The free market has worked its magic, the Barnett Shale
Energy Education Council, an industry group, claimed over the
summer.
The boom happened away from the greedy grasp of
Washington, the American Enterprise Institute, a think tank,
wrote in an essay this year.
If bureaucrats had known this was going on, the essay went
on, surely Washington would have done something to slow it
down, tax it more, or stop it altogether.
But those who helped pioneer the technique known as
hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, recall a different path. Over
three decades, from the shale elds of Texas and Wyoming to
the Marcellus in the Northeast, the federal government con-
tributed more than $100 million in research to develop frack-
ing, and billions more in tax breaks.
Now, those industry pioneers say their own effort shows that
the government should back research into future sources of
energy for decades, if need be to promote breakthroughs.
For all its success now, many people in the oil and gas industry
itself once thought shale gas was a waste of time.
Theres no point in mincing words. Some people thought it
was stupid, said Dan Steward, a geologist who began working
with the Texas natural gas rm Mitchell Energy in 1981.
Steward estimated that in the early years, probably 90 percent
of the people in the rm didnt believe shale gas would be
protable.
Decades of federal
dollars helped fuel
the gasoline boom

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
The College of San Mateos Sam
Atoe got the touchdown party start-
ed John Willis and Aaron
Criswell kept it going.
CSM football moved to 4-0 on
Saturday, traveling to Modesto and
picking up a 60-35 victory. The
Bulldogs sandwiched 21 points
with a couple of huge 20-point
quarters to begin and end the game.
The CSM defense shut down
Modesto in the nal period after
they had trimmed the Bulldog lead
to just ve points.
Modesto scored rst with 8:57
left in the rst quarter on a 17-yard
touchdown pass.
But CSM responded immediately
when Atoe took the ensuing kick-
off and raced into the end zone on a
93-yard touchdown the Bulldogs
dominated for the rest of the half.
Criswell and Willis hooked up six
minutes later on a 41-yard pitch and
catch to make it 14-7 and just before
the first quarter whistle, Quincy
Nelson, who rushed for 159 yards in
the win, used ve of those yards to
make it 20-7.
Criswell and Willis continued
making beautiful touchdown music
come the second quarter. Less than
two minutes in, the duo dialed up a
60-yard touchdown, increasing
CSMs lead to 20 points. Kenya
Price got in on the fun with 6:52 left
in the half, taking the ball 30 yards
to the house for another Bulldog
touchdown. CSM looked in com-
plete control.
But Modesto got a huge touch-
down just before the half on a 22-
yard run by Herb Whitehurst.
Modesto took that momentum
and outscored CSM 21-6 in the
third quarter. Jordan Dabneys catch
from Teejay Gordon with 29 sec-
onds left in the period made it 40-
35.
But Willis and Criswell put the
CSM offense on their backs during
the games biggest drive. The tan-
dem found one another on a huge
41-yard catch that set up Willis 2-
yard touchdown run to make it 46-
35 with 14:20 left in the game.
From there, the CSM defense
stepped up. They held Modesto to
just four rst downs in the fourth
period. Willis added another touch-
down run, this one from a yard
away to cap a 10-play, 71-yard
drive. Hed get into the end zone
one more time with 3:07 left in the
game to ice the win for CSM.

MINNEAPOLIS The San Francisco
49ers have become one of the NFLs most
feared and revered teams under coach Jim
Harbaugh, using a punishing, disciplined
defense and a mistake-free, balanced
offense to brand themselves as arguably
this seasons Super Bowl favorite.
Wherever these 49ers nish, this game
at Minnesota against the Vikings wont
make the highlight video.
Christian Ponder threw two touchdown
passes to tight end Kyle Rudolph and ran
for another score to help the Vikings beat
the 49ers 24-13 on Sunday. It was the rst
defeat of the year for the 49ers and just
their fifth loss in 21 games under
Harbaugh including the NFC champi-
onship game last season.
Bad day. We cant sulk about it. Cant
complain, point ngers. Got to suck it up,
and I know well do that, Harbaugh said.

and, most importantly, no turnovers or
sacks. After a dominant start to their NFC

Mills High School thumps Harker
SPORTS 12
consider that last season Mills
scored 107 points in 10 games and
they racked up more than half that
number in a single game.
I think the players are buying
in, said Mills head coach Mike
Krieger. The coaches are coaching
really well throughout the week. If
youre here watching the games and
listening to the coaches on the side-
line, we dont care what the score is
or what time is left on the clock
were coaching every down as hard
as we can. Youre staring to see our
base offense and our base defense
being executed very well.
The majority of the credit for
Saturdays win falls on the shoul-
ders of Mills running back Antonio
Jeffrey, who had a career day run-
ning the football for the Vikings.
No. 1 carried the ball 19 times for
364 yards and six touchdowns.
Harker simply had no answer for
Jeffrey.
Id have to say, execution,
Jeffrey said when asked about the
key to his performance on Saturday.
The offense did their job. All week
we practiced and Coach Mike has
been telling us, execute, you have
to execute, so it was just execution.
It starts with our offensive line. It
starts with our coach.
Hes got gears, Krieger said of
Jeffrey. He can jump up a gear
when he needs to. He sees the eld
very well subtle cuts, good feet.
Hes easy to coach in the backeld
for sure.
Jeffrey sure made it look effort-
less. After a successful pooch kick
to start the game, Mills used three
plays to get into the end zone with
Jeffrey carrying the ball 10 yards
for his rst score. Then, following a
Lawrence Wong interception,
Jeffrey visited Touchdown Land
once again, this time from 23-yards
away.
It didnt take Mills and Jeffrey
very long to add to that two-touch-
down lead. Following another inter-
ception, this one courtesy of Austin
Miyamoto, No. 1 reached End Zone
City once again, this time on a 4th-
and-4 play that turned into a 46-
yard run. With 2:40 left in the rst
quarter, Mills was up 21-0.
Long runs tend to get the score-
board going pretty quickly,
Krieger said. The offensive line
has been coming together, learning
their blocking assignments and exe-
cuting learning that they can
drive block, they can combo block,
whatever it takes to displace that
man that were running to. I dont
think Antonio got touched until he
was 10 yards down the eld. So cer-
tainly they get the credit.
I felt like it was good, Jeffrey
said of his start to the game. I
knew it was there. I just hit the hole
hard and went to where I needed to
be.
Truth be told, on Saturday the
end zone should have been renamed
Jeffrey-ville. After Harker nally
got their offense going and scored
to make it 21-6, the Vikings used
eight plays on their ensuing drive to
regain their three-touchdown
advantage. And once again it was
Jeffrey doing the honors and scor-
ing from 35 yards away. No. 1
racked up four touchdowns and 126
yards rushing in the rst half alone.
As a team, Mills gained 208 while
Harker had 132 and three turnovers,
the latter costing them six points as
Conor Hidalgo picked the ball off
and ran it back for a defensive
touchdown.
The defense did a nice job,
Krieger said. We talked about their
quarterback being dangerous out-
side the pocket he makes plays. So,
we had to be disciplined and our
linebackers really stepped up in
terms of dropping back in their
zones and getting underneath the
receivers they needed to. And I
think the pass rush got to the quar-
terback as well.
With a four-touchdown lead,
Mills and Jeffrey really put the
game away on the rst offensive
snap of the second half. No. 1 burst
through the heart of the Harker for
an 80-yard fun run to Jeffrey-ville to
make it 42-6.
From that point on, it was just a
matter of holding off an Eagle
offense that kept going to the air to
avoid a running clock come the
fourth quarter. They were successful
in nding the end zone once more,
but another Mills interception set
the Vikings up with the ball on their
14-yard line. While that might seem
like good position to most, on
Saturday the entire eld was the red
zone for Jeffrey. Two snaps into its
third drive of the second half,
Jeffrey took the ball down the right
sideline for an 87-yard touchdown.
It was my favorite run, Jeffrey
said. The offense picked up the
linebackers and my best friend,
Victor (Beglitsoff) picked up the
corner and I got outside.
Mills capped its 56-point barrage
with a Hidalgo to Josh Sved passing
touchdown with 7:23 left in the
game.
Mills is now 2-1-1 doubling its
win total from last season already
with seven games left to play.

vious ve games. Everth Cabrera
had four hits, walked and stole three
bases in ve plate appearances.
Street pitched the ninth for his
rst save since Aug. 10, his 22nd of
the season and 200th of his career.
His scoreless streak ended at 21 2/3
innings.
Its a round number but I dont
want to nish there, Street said. It
means something because I got the
ball authenticated and I dont get
that every save. Theres a certain
sense of accomplishment but theres
a lot more to get.
Pinch hitter Aubrey Huff singled
to lead off the ninth. Street got
pinch hitter Pablo Sandoval to y
out to right but then walked pinch
hitter Hunter Pence and Hector
Sanchez to load the bases. Posey
grounded out, driving in his 98th
run of the season before Ryan
Theriot lined out to center eld to
end it.
Its wasnt difcult if I dont
walk people, Street said. I walked
Pence on four pitches. Thats just
bad baseball. Its a test and its
never easy.
Xavier Nady, who had two hits,
Eli Whiteside, Emmanuel Burriss
and Buster Posey each drove in runs
for the Giants, who rested their reg-
ulars a day after clinching the NL
West Division title.
Eric Stults (7-3) worked six-plus
innings, allowing three runs on
seven hits, to win his sixth in seven
decisions. He struck out four and
walked one.
That was fairly typical of what
Eric has given us, Padres manager
Bud Black said. A wide range of
velocities and a mix of pitches. I
though Hustons stuff was good but
he was just a touch rusty. There are
a lot of ways to get it done and he
got it done.
Yusmeiro Petit made his Giants
debut, allowing two runs on seven
hits over 4 2/3 innings. He walked
four and struck out one.
I felt great, Petit said. Its been
three weeks without pitching. I felt
a little lost in the rst inning but
then I was able to do the job.
Clay Hensley (4-4) took the loss
after giving up Alonsos hit.
Petit made his rst major league
since Sept. 6, 2009 when he was
with the Arizona Diamondbacks as
the Giants had their six-game win
streak and seven-game home win
streak stopped.

OAKLAND Sebastian
Janikowski kicked a 43-yard eld
goal on the last play as the Oakland
Raiders scored the nal 13 points
after wide receiver Darrius
Heyward-Bey was knocked out and
hospitalized by a scary hit to beat
the Pittsburgh Steelers 34-31 on
Sunday.
The game turned somber early in
the fourth quarter when Heyward-
Bey was knocked unconscious by a
helmet-to-helmet hit in the end zone
by Steelers safety Ryan Mundy that
was not called a penalty by the
replacement ofcials. Heyward-Bey
was taken to the hospital with a
neck injury.
Carson Palmer then threw his
third touchdown pass for Oakland
(1-2) and Janikowski kicked two
eld goals to beat the Steelers (1-2)
and give coach Dennis Allen his
rst win.
The Raiders
took over with
the game tied at
their 25 with
1:42 remaining.
Palmer got the
drive going with
a 24-yard pass
to Brandon
Myers on third-
and-10 and then
hit Derek Hagan on a 17-yard pass
down to the Pittsburgh 26 with 27
seconds left.
Oakland then ran down the clock
to set up Janikowskis winning kick
that send the crowd into delirium
less than an hour after silence over-
took the stadium when Heyward-
Bey was injured.
Mundys helmet hit Heyward-Bey
in the facemask on an incomplete
pass in the end zone. Heyward-
Beys neck jerked violently and his
head also crashed into the ground.
Players from both teams kneeled in
prayer as Heyward-Bey was attend-
ed to for about 10 minutes. He man-
aged to raise his right hand while
being taken off the eld on a cart to
go to the hospital with a neck injury.
Four plays later, Carson Palmer
eluded pressure and found Denarius
Moore on a 6-yard touchdown pass
that brought Oakland within 31-28
early in the fourth quarter.
Raiders cornerback Pat Lee then
forced a fumble downfield by
Pittsburgh receiver Antonio Brown
that Philip Wheeler recovered at the
Oakland 36. Palmer then drove the
Raiders down the eld and they tied
the game on a 32-yard eld goal by
Sebastian Janikowski with 6:30 to
play.
With the Steelers missing Pro
Bowl defensive stalwarts Troy
Polamalu (calf) and James Harrison
(knee), the Raiders were able to
move the ball effectively most of the
game.
Darren McFadden ran for 113
yards, including a 64-yard TD burst
in the rst quarter that surpassed his
rushing total from the first two
games of the season combined.
Palmer overcame an interception
on the rst play of the game to go
23 for 33 for 209 yards and three
touchdowns, including a 3-yarder to
Heyward-Bey late in the rst half.
But Roethlisberger was even bet-
ter, throwing two TD passes to
Heath Miller in the rst quarter, as
well as third-quarter scores to Mike
Wallace and Brown. Roethlisberger
nished 36 for 49 for 384 yards as
Oakland failed to generate any sus-
tained pass rush.
But he failed to convert a third-
and-9 under pressure following the
two-minute warning to give
Oakland the chance at the winning
score.
Each team converted a turnover
into a touchdown in the opening
half with the Steelers taking a 17-14
lead at the break after
Roethlisberger 64 yards in the nal
1:54 without a timeout to set up
Shaun Suishams 33-yard eld goal
on the nal play.
The half started well for the
Steelers as well when Palmer was
intercepted by Ryan Clark on the
first play from scrimmage after
Moore slipped on the ineld dirt
while making his cut.
Roethlisberger converted one
fourth down before throwing his
rst of two 4-yard TD passes to
Miller in the opening quarter. In
between those scores, McFadden
scored on the longest run against the
Steelers since 2006.
Oakland tied the game again late
in the half after Joselio Hanson
recovered a fumble by Jonathan
Dwyer at the Pittsburgh 30. The
Raiders then drew Ziggy Hood off-
side with a rapid shift on fourth
down and Palmer found Heyward-
Bey on the next play.

NEW YORK Derek Jeter says
hes not injured. Still, manager Joe
Giardi is being cautious with one of
his most consistent stars.
Limiting the Yankees captain to
the role of designated hitter because
of a sore ankle has forced the mis-
take-prone Eduardo Nunez into
playing shortstop.
It hurt New York on Sunday.
Nunezs throwing error in the
sixth inning set up Cliff
Penningtons go-ahead RBI, and the
Yankees had their seven-game win-
ning streak come to an end with a 5-
4 loss to the Oakland Athletics.
I think its more that you worry
about the more hes on it, the better
chance he has of, I dont know what
you want to call it, re-injuring it or
irritating it more than it already is,
Girardi said of Jeter.
Jeter has played shortstop in only
three of the last nine games after
bruising his ankle trying to beat out
a throw against Boston.
I dont have a physical issue,
Jeter said. Im ne to play.
The Yankees kept their one-game
lead in the AL East because
Baltimore lost in Boston. Despite
the defeat, the Yankees have to like
their chances to win the division
their nal 10 games are against
three teams with records below
.500.
We control what happens, Jeter
said. We play how were capable
of, we win our games. We really
dont have to look at the score-
board.
A day after their stunning 14-
inning loss capped by a misplay
on Nunezs grounder the As
maintained their 2?-game lead for
the second AL wild-card spot over
the Angels.
Alex Rodriguez nearly tied it
again for the Yankees, hitting a drive
off closer Grant Balfour in the ninth
that Josh Reddick caught with his
back against the wall in right eld.
I thought it had a chance,
Girardi said.
Balfour did, too, after Oakland
twice lost in extra innings in the
Bronx.
The way things went for us in
this series, you never know,
Balfour said.
The As lost a 10-9 heartbreaker
Saturday when Brandon Moss mis-
played Nunezs spinning grounder
for an error with two outs in the
14th. This time they took advantage
of Nunezs two-base throwing error
on a tough play with one out in the
sixth.
An out after Josh Donaldson
reached second base, Pennington,
the No. 9 batter, singled to left eld
for his third hit and a 5-4 lead.
Pennington earlier hit a two-run
homer.
To lose two games in extra
innings is tough, especially when
these games mean so much,
Pennington said. It was really still
just another game, but it was a big
one.
Nunez, demoted in May because
of his struggles in the eld, also
made an error in the seventh when
he failed to get the ball cleanly out
of his glove on Yoenis Cespedes
grounder.
I have to keep practicing
defense. I have to keep working,
Nunez said. Tomorrows a differ-
ent day.
Cespedes had a tying single in the
fth after a wild pitch from Hiroki
Kuroda (14-11). The As scored a
run in the rst on another wild pitch
by the Yankees starter.
Jerry Blevins (5-1) pitched 1 1-3
innings in relief of A.J. Grifn.
In a seesaw series, the As opened
a 3-0 lead but the Yankees rallied for
four runs in the fourth before
Cespedes tied it.
Rarely do you lose a game like
you did last night, and I think com-
ing back from something like that
and scoring early in the game
showed some ght right away, As
manager Bob Melvin said. It was a
big game.
Oakland scored four runs in the
13th inning of Saturdays 5-hour,
43-minute game, but the Yankees
came back. The As bullpen locked
this one down, though, with 4 2-3
innings of shutout ball. Ryan Cook
worked 1 1-3 innings, Sean
Doolittle went an inning and
Balfour nished for his 20th save.
Donaldson led off the second by
beating out a grounder to shortstop.
But replays clearly showed
Donaldsons foot a few feet from
coming down on rst base when
Nick Swisher caught Nunezs low
throw. Two batters later, Pennington
homered to right eld for a 3-0 lead.
The young As 14 rookies on
the roster kept right on celebrat-
ing in their dugout, a day after for-
mer teammate and current Yankee
Eric Chavez told a New York
columnist that Oaklands rhythmic
clapping during its three-homer
spurt in the 13th inning was high
schoolish.
But in this tight series the Yankees
rallied again, and Raul Ibanez was
right in the mix in the fourth inning.
Trailing 3-0 and with only one hit
off Grifn through three innings,
the Yankees came back in the fourth
when Cano singled and Swisher
homered into the second deck in
right eld.
Yankees come up short, fail to sweep As

MENLO COLLEGE 59, LA VERNE 13
For the second time in as many weeks, No.
25 Menlo College eclipsed the 50-point
plateau, this time in a 59-13 rout of the
University of La Verne.
The overwhelming victory makes it three in
a row for Menlo (4-1), with the Oaks outscor-
ing their three opponents 156-32 during that
stretch, including 115-19 at home. Menlos
59-points are the most scored since Nov. 3,
2001, which just so happened to be a 58-7 win
over La Verne.
The Oaks racked up 635 yards of total
offense in the victory with the Menlo ground
game putting on a dominant performance.
The Oaks sprinted their way to a school
record 491 rushing yards, surpassing the old
mark of 331 on Nov.13, 2010 in a win against
Pacic University. The 635 total yards is also
the second most all-time.
On the ground, freshman Brandon Bell led
the charge for the third straight week. Bell
rushed for 184 yards on only eight carries,
including a 64-yard run to the end zone to
push Menlos advantage to 45-7 early in the
fourth quarter. Bell has now rushed for 408
yards in the last three games, as he continues
to lead the Oaks in yards on the ground.
Bells touchdown was part of a run that saw
Menlo score 52 straight points after getting
down 7-0 a little more than four minutes into
the game.
Defensively, Menlo stied La Verne, hold-
ing the Leopards to just 13 total points, while
forcing two turnovers. Junior Camyar
Meshkaty paved the way with seven total
tackles, two tackles for loss and a sack.
Senior Wade Hawkins chipped in with six

teams Green Bay and Detroit, the 49ers (2-1)
were beaten in every way by the team least
likely to do so.
The Vikings (2-1) began the game boldly
with a fourth-and-goal touchdown pass by
Ponder to his favorite target Rudolph. They
nished strong by forcing three turnovers and
two punts by the 49ers in a wild, drawn-out
fourth quarter due in part to more replacement
referee blunders. Twice in a six-play span, the
49ers were allowed to withdraw a called time-
out to challenge a play instead. The rst one
was reversed, a fumble by Toby Gerhart given
to the 49ers after video review.
But the Vikings played so well that didnt
matter. Neither did Gerharts second fumble a
few minutes later.
We just left too much out there and didnt
get into a rhythm at all. Continually put our-
selves in third-down situations. That makes
for a long day, said Alex Smith, whose fran-
chise-record interception-less streak ended at
249 straight passes when Vikings rookie Josh
Robinson picked him off with 2:18 left.
Playing against his former team in the reg-
ular season for the rst time, Randy Moss had
a quiet afternoon with three catches for 27
yards. He was wide open at the goal line on
second down during a second-quarter posses-
sion that ended in a eld goal, but Smiths
pass was high and Moss made an awkward
attempt to reach for it. He was on the sideline
for a few important drives and plays, but he
declined to discuss his usage.
I want to thank the Vikings fans for the
love, said Moss, who was cheered loudly
during the pregame introduction. I really
appreciate the love that they give, and we just
didnt pull it through today.
Smith overthrew an open Moss in the rst
quarter, too.
Ive got to connect, Smith said. Ive got
to get better balls there, on both those occa-
sions, because those were key plays.
But theres a lot more on the list of what
went wrong.
Frank Gore managed only 63 yards on 12
carries and lost a fourth-quarter fumble at
mideld. Donte Whitner dropped a sure inter-
ception and a potential touchdown a few min-
utes later after Vikings wide receiver Michael
Jenkins slipped on third down. David Akers
had a 43-yard eld goal blocked by Letroy
Guion late in the rst half. And Smith lost a
fumble on a late sack by Jared Allen.
Smith nished 24 for 35 for 204 yards. He
found tight end Vernon Davis on consecutive
passes, the second one a 1-yard play-action
fake, in the third quarter to pull within 17-13.
But with one third-and-goal pass by Ponder to
Rudolph, who reached around Whitner for it,
the lead was back to 11. That drive was fueled
by three 49ers penalties, including two unnec-
essary roughness calls, one by Dashon
Goldson against Rudolph that was vehement-
ly argued by the 49ers.
Peterson nished with 86 yards on 25 gru-
eling carries, helping give Ponder some room
to throw.
The Vikings went 82 yards in 16 plays to
start the game, but Peterson was stonewalled
for 1 yard on second-and-goal at the 2 and no
gain on third down. With inches to go, Ponder
rolled left under pressure by Goldson and
threw a oater off his back foot that Rudolph
ran down in the corner of the end zone for a 7-
0 lead. Rudolph had four catches on that
drive.
Then Ponder used his feet, taking off three
times for 34 yards on a second-quarter pos-
session, including the 23-yard sprint that
made it 14-3 Minnesota. Accelerating off a
cut inside the 10, perhaps reminding all the
49ers fans inside of their old favorite Steve
Young, Ponder dived across the goal line for
the nal yard.
49ERS
By Doug Ferguson
ATLANTA With the biggest round of
his career, Brandt Snedeker won something
far more valuable than money Sunday.
He proved to himself he could beat the best
in the world.
Snedeker knew his best chance to be the
FedEx Cup champion was to win the Tour
Championship, no simple task with East Lake
as tough as ever and Rory McIlroy and Tiger
Woods going after the same prize.
Snedeker was the only player in the last ve
groups to break par.
He answered the nal challenge with three
big birdies on the back nine, building such a
big lead that his nal tee shot sailed into the
grandstands to the left of the 18th green and it
didnt even matter. Snedeker still closed with
a 2-under 68 for a three-shot win in the Tour
Championship, and a $10 million bonus for
winning the FedEx Cup.
But this was never about money.
I think it solidies what I already know,
Snedeker said. I think when I play my best
golf, my best golf is some of the best in the
world. Ive never had more condence in
myself than I have the last ve weeks, and I
made sure that I kept telling myself that all
day. I am one of the best players in the world.
This is supposed to happen. Its OK to feel
nervous, and no matter what I feel today,
everybody else in the eld feels exactly the
same way I do.
So go out there and get it done. I did a
great job of that.
McIlroy, the best player in golf this year
and the No. 1 seed going into the Tour
Championship, faded early by dropping four
shots in a four-hole span on the front nine. So
did Woods, who already was 3 over on his
round before making his rst birdie on the
par-5 ninth.
Snedeker wound up with a three-shot victo-
ry over Justin Rose (71) to win the Tour
Championship, his second win this year and a
trophy that came with $1.44 million. Add the
$10 million bonus from the FedEx Cup, and
its the richest payoff in golf.
Big deal.
The 31-year-old from Nashville, Tenn.,
calls that kind of money crazy talk ... like
winning the lottery. Far greater perspective
came from a 30-minute hospital visit Sunday
morning with Tucker Anderson, the son of his
swing coach who was critically injured in a
car accident and is in a responsive coma.
I asked him if he thought I was going to
beat Rory McIlroy, and he gave me a wink,
Snedeker said.
He beat McIlroy out of the FedEx Cup, and
everyone else in his way at East Lake. Ryan
Moore was tied for the lead with birdies on
the 14th and 15th holes, only to make bogey
on the last three holes for a 70 to tie for third
with Luke Donald (67).
McIlroy had won the last two playoff events
and three of his last four tournaments dating
to his record eight-shot win at the PGA
Championship. He still is virtually a lock to
be voted PGA Tour player of the year, but he
had to settle for second place and a $3 mil-
lion bonus in the FedEx Cup.
And so ends the most successful year yet in
the FedEx Cup four wildly entertaining
playoff events packed with the biggest names,
even if the No. 1 player in the world wound up
at No. 2.
Im a little disappointed, but at the same
time, Brandt really deserves to win, McIlroy
said. He played the best golf out of anyone.
He knew what he needed to do. He needed to
come in here and win. He controlled his own
destiny, just like I did. And he was able to
come and do that. So because of that, he real-
ly deserves it.
How can Snedeker explain winning the
FedEx Cup over a player who won twice dur-
ing the playoffs?
Life is all about timing, he said, grinning.
Snedeker, who nished on 10-under 270,
won for the fourth time in his career and
moved into the top 10 in the world for the rst
time.
It also was his rst time winning with a
share of the lead going into the last day. In his
previous three wins, he came from ve shots,
six shots and seven shots behind, the latter at
Torrey Pines this year.
Thats what made Sunday feel more valu-
able than the cash. Thats what he takes to the
Ryder Cup next week at Medinah, where no
one can question why U.S. captain Davis
Love III picked him for the team.
Im a lot better under pressure than I gave
myself credit for, Snedeker said. I learned
that over the last four weeks. Ive had a lot of
pressure the last four weeks and a bunch of
different stuff going on in my life. To be able
to focus in and do what I did was pretty
impressive.
Snedeker joins Woods (twice), Vijay Singh,
Jim Furyk and Bill Haas as winners of the
FedEx Cup in its six-year history.
It was an emotional week in so many ways
for Snedeker, already a high-strung personali-
ty.
His father, Larry, ew in to watch nal
round at East Lake, only the second tourna-
ment he has attended since having a liver
transplant last year. And then came the visit
with Tucker.
It just made me realize ... as much as I
made today out be important, how unimpor-
tant it really is, he said. It got me focused on
the small stuff, which I did a great job of
doing today.
But he delivered some big shots a 40-
foot birdie putt on No. 8, just two holes after
he dumped his tee shot into the water on the
par-3 sixth and made double bogey; the 18-
foot birdie putt on No. 13 that gave him
momentum on the back nine; and a chip-in for
birdie from short of the 17th green that effec-
tively clinched it.
I had complete condence in what I was
doing, Snedeker said.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. Rob
Bironas kicked a 26-yard eld goal
in overtime, and the Titans stopped
backup quarterback Shaun Hill on
fourth-and-1 at the Tennessee 7 to
pull out a 44-41 win over the Detroit
Lions on Sunday.
The Titans (1-2) blew a 20-9 half-
time lead in a crazy game featuring
big plays, scoring swings and some
suspect ofciating. Detroit scored
18 straight points, then Tennessee
answered with 21 points before the
Lions scored the nal 14 of regula-
tion. Detroit recovered an onside
kick and got an assist from ofcials
who did not review a possible
turnover.
In overtime, Bironas third eld
goal put Tennessee ahead to stay.
The Lions (1-2) lost their second
straight when coach Jim Schwartz
decided not to let Jason Hanson
attempt to connect on a fth eld
goal. Hill, in for injured Matthew
Stafford , was stopped by defensive
tackles Jurrell Casey and
SenDerrick Marks on his sneak,
and Tennessee escaped with its rst
win of the season.
CHIEFS 27, SAINTS 24 OT
NEW ORLEANS Ryan
Succop kicked six eld goals, one to

Succops 43-yard eld goal with 3
seconds left completed a methodical
comeback by Kansas City (1-2)
after the Saints (0-3) had cashed in
on a pair of Chiefs turnovers to go
ahead 24-6 in the third quarter.
Kansas City needed only one
touchdown to win, a 91-yard run by
Jamaal Charles, who nished with
233 yards rushing and 55 yards
receiving.
The Chiefs also got a safety in the
fourth quarter on Justin Houstons
third sack of the game.
Drew Brees passed for 240 yards
and three touchdowns, but missed
all six of his passes through the
fourth quarter and overtime.

tion of the season, and a passer rat-
ing of 107.8 for the Falcons (3-0),
who improved to 6-0 all-time in San
Diego. DeCouds three takeaways,
plus William Moores fourth-quarter
fumble recovery, extended the
Falcons NFL-high turnover differ-
ential to plus-10.
San Diego (2-1) was the third
straight AFC West team to lose to
Atlanta.
Ryan Mathews made his season
debut for San Diego and looked

Arizona (3-0) sacked Vick ve
times in winning its seventh straight
home game, the second-longest

Philadelphia (2-1) became the
rst NFL team to open a season
with two one-point wins. The
Eagles didnt give themselves a
chance to rally for another victory,
picked apart by the quarterback they
cast away and hounded by
Arizonas attacking defense.

MIAMI Nick Folk received a

overtime.
Mark Sanchez hit Santonio
Holmes for a 38-yard gain to set up
the kick. Two plays later, Folks try
was blocked, but ofcials whistled
the play dead as the ball was
snapped because the Dolphins had
called timeout.
Folk then made the winner.
On the previous possession, the

the difference.
A 6-yard throw to tight end
Jermaine Gresham broke a 24-24
tie, then Dalton hit Andrew
Hawkins for a 59-yard score to give
the Bengals a two-touchdown cush-

WORLD
BENGHAZI, Libya The
Libyan army on Sunday said it raid-
ed several militia outposts operating
outside government control in the
capital, Tripoli, while in the east,
the militia suspected in the Sept. 11
attack on the U.S. Consulate said it
had disbanded on orders of the
countrys president.
President Mohammed el-Megaref
said late Saturday all of the coun-
trys militias must come under gov-
ernment authority or disband, a
move that appeared aimed at har-
nessing popular anger against the
powerful armed groups following
the attack that killed the U.S.
ambassador.
The assault on the U.S. mission in
Benghazi, which left Ambassador
Chris Stevens and three other
Americans dead, has sparked an
angry backlash among many
Libyans against the myriad of
armed factions that continue to run
rampant across the nation nearly a
year after the end of the countrys
civil war.
On Friday, residents of Benghazi
the cradle of the Libyan revolu-
tion last year that toppled dictator
Moammar Gadha staged a mass
demonstration against the militias
before storming the compounds of
several armed groups in the city in
an unprecedented protest to demand
the militias dissolve.
The government has taken advan-
tage of the popular sentiment to
move quickly. In a statement pub-
lished by the ofcial LANA news
agency, the military asked all armed
groups using the armys camps, out-
posts and barracks in Tripoli, and
other cities to hand them over. It
warned that it will resort to force if
the groups refuse.
On Sunday, security forces raided
a number of sites in the capital,
including a military outpost on the
main airport road, which were being
used as bases by disparate militias
since Gadha was driven from the
capital around a year ago, according
to military spokesman Ali al-
Shakhli.
Tripoli resident Abdel-Salam
Sikayer said he believes the govern-
ment is able to make this push now
because, thanks to the countrys rst
free election in decades that took place
in July, the public generally trusts it.
There was no trust before the
election of the National Congress
that is backed by the legitimacy of
the people and which chose the
countrys leader. There is a feeling
that the national army will really be
built, he said.
The government faces a number
of obstacles, though. It needs the
most powerful militias on its side to
help disband the rest. It also relies
on militias for protection of vital
institutions and has used them to
secure the borders, airports, hospi-
tals and even Julys election.
Some of the militias have taken
steps over the past several weeks to
consolidate and work as contracted
government security forces that are
paid monthly salaries.

DAMASCUS, Syria - Syrian
opposition gures who reject for-
eign intervention in Syrias 18-
month conict called for the ouster
of President Bashar Assad at a rare
meeting Sunday in the nations cap-
ital. The gathering was tolerated by
the regime in an apparent attempt to
lend credibility to its claims that it
remains open to political reform
despite its bloody crackdown on
dissent.
A senior former Assad ally, mean-
while, said Iran is providing mas-
sive support for the embattled
Syrian regime.
Iranians are active in leading
positions in the military, former
Syrian Prime Minister Riad Hijab,
who defected to the opposition last
month, told the German daily
Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.
Were not only talking about mili-
tary aid, but also logistical and eco-
nomic support by Iran.
Earlier this month, the top com-
mander of Irans powerful
Revolutionary Guard said the elite
unit has high-level advisers in Syria.
Iran is also believed to be sending
weapons to Syria.
In recent weeks, Assads military
has escalated airstrikes and shelling
of civilian areas to put down an
uprising that began in March 2011
with peaceful protests but has since
devolved into a civil war. Activists
say close to 30,000 people have
been killed.
Sundays opposition conference
was attended by diplomats from
Iran, Russia and China, Assads
main allies. It was likely to be
viewed as likely to be viewed as a
cosmetic gesture by Syrian rebels
and their many backers in the inter-
national community.
The loose network of Syrian rebel
groups and the political opposition
outside Syria believe Assad cannot
be trusted to negotiate reform or a
peaceful transfer of power, and call
for foreign military intervention to
break the stalemate in the conict.
The United States and its allies
have refrained from such action,
partly because of international divi-
sions over Syria and fears of a wider
conict. The opposition gures who
met in Damascus are open to the
idea of a political settlement, even
though the conict so far has eluded
all attempts at mediation.
Assads government tightly
restricts criticism in areas it con-
trols, and security was tight for
Sundays one-day conference at a
Damascus hotel, attended by dozens
of people. Streets leading to the
hotel were blocked off, plainclothes
security agents patrolled the
perimeter and participants passed
through security checks.

e like big buns and we cannot
lie. Yeah, I know. A famous rap-
per sampled this line from us
and made it something less tasteful. Let me
explain why we like em big when it comes
to bunnies and why you might consider big-
ger buns if youre looking to adopt. In gener-
al, bigger bunnies are more condent and
relaxed than smaller rabbits. They are a bet-
ter match for children than smaller rabbit
breeds. Sturdily built and hearty, they can
live into their teens; their large frames make
them much less susceptible to injuries. They
dont run around and jump as much as
smaller rabbits, preferring to lounge around
and even watch television yes, rabbits do
watch television! Their size and friendly
demeanor make them the perfect rst rabbit
for many homes. Two of the particularly
large breeds are the somewhat rare Flemish
Giants and the more traditional New Zealand
Whites. And, we currently have both avail-
able for adoption at PHS/SPCA. In fact, they
occupy the roomy second oor corner suite
inside our new Center for Compassion, much
to the chagrin of our president who had his
eye on this space. New Zealand Whites are
lovingly called the Labrador Retrievers of
the rabbit world, which should give an idea
of their demeanor. Gentle, loving, unafraid.
They have the biggest personalities of any
breed and are known for their goofy, enter-
taining, comical antics. Of all the rabbit
breeds, they are the most likely to let you
pick them up, be unafraid of dogs, let your
children pick them up and race to meet you
at the front door when you come home from
work. Flemish Giants are gentle, calm and
mellow and usually get along well with kids
and family pets. They blend in well with the
normal household activity. These sweet-
natured buns will sit on your lap or drape
themselves all over you as long as you con-
tinuously pet them.

LOS ANGELES Hollywood is
in photo-nish mode with three new
movies bunched up tightly for the
No. 1 spot during a sleepy weekend
at the box ofce.
Studio estimates Sunday put two
movies in a tie for rst-place with
$13 million each: Jake Gyllenhaal
and Michael Penas police story
End of Watch and Jennifer
Lawrences horror ick House at
the End of the Street.
And right in the same ballpark
was Clint Eastwood and Amy
Adams baseball tale Trouble with
the Curve, which opened with
$12.7 million.
Actual rankings will be deter-
mined Monday as studios release
nal numbers for the weekend.
No matter which movie comes
out on top, it was another slow
weekend for Hollywood, whose
business has been sluggish through-
out late summer. Revenues were
down for the fourth-straight week-
end, with all three of the top new
movies opening to modest crowds.
This was a clash of the non-
titans, said Paul Dergarabedian,
analyst for box-office tracker
Hollywood.com. When three lms
are duking it out for the top spot
with only around $13 million, that
doesnt represent a very strong peri-
od at the box ofce.
Overall domestic revenues totaled
$88 million, down 25 percent from
the same weekend last year, when a
3-D re-release of The Lion King
led with $21.9 million, according to
Hollywood.com.
The weekends other new wide
release, Lionsgates sci- action tale
Dredd, opened well down in the
rankings at No. 6 with $6.3 million.
The movie features Star Trek co-
star Karl Urban as a law enforcer
and executioner in a crime-laden
city of the future.
Open Road Films End of
Watch stars Gyllenhaal and Pena
as partners patrolling the mean
streets of LA. Relativity Medias
House at the End of the Street
casts The Hunger Games star
Lawrence as a youth who moves
with her mom next door to a house
where bloody misdeeds took place
years earlier. Trouble with the
Curve, released by Warner Bros.,
stars Eastwood as an aging baseball
scout whose daughter (Adams)
accompanies him on his latest road
trip.
Studios determine weekend esti-
mates by counting Friday and
Saturday ticket sales then projecting
Sunday revenues based on how sim-
ilar movies have played out in the
past. On rare occasions when the
top movies are this close, the rank-
ings sometimes change when
Mondays final numbers are
released.
That has led to grousing among
competitors that some studios might
be inating their Sunday estimates
to gain No. 1 bragging rights, even
if only for a day.
I took the high road myself and
put down the $12.7 million we
reported, said Dan Fellman, head
of distribution at Warner Bros.,
where Eastwood has been based for
decades. Ive got a major actor
with a solid group of people in this
movie, and I dont want to eat crow
on Monday.
Other studios were tracking End
of Watch and House at the End of
the Street at a bit less than $13 mil-
lion for the weekend, and some had
Trouble with the Curve at No. 1
by a fraction.
Its unbelievably close. I honest-
ly dont remember ever seeing it
this close, but were happy that
were in the race, said Kyle Davies,
head of distribution for Relativity.
We think our estimate is on target.
Well see tomorrow. I think
today everybody projected honor-
ably and honestly, said Tom
Ortenberg, chief executive ofcer
for Open Road Films. I think its
fair to say that nobodys sure whos
going to be No. 1.
While audiences were not too
excited about the new wide releases,
Lionsgates Summit Entertainment
banner had big crowds in limited
release for its teen drama The
Perks of Being a Wallower.
The lm took in $244,000 in four
locations for a strong average of
$61,000 a theater. That compares to
meager averages ranging from
$3,960 to $4,762 a theater for
Trouble with the Curve, House
at the End of the Street and End
of Watch, which all played in about
3,000 cinemas.
Perks features Harry Potter
co-star Emma Watson alongside
Logan Lerman and Ezra Miller in
the story of a troubled high school
freshman taken in by a clique of
senior mists.

north dened the boundary along San Bruno
Mountain. This left an unincorporated, no-
mans-land of sorts between Chestnut and
Holy Cross Cemetery from Hillside
Boulevard, past Colma Creek and to the west.
In 1861, the San Francisco and San Jose
Railroad was built along the Mission Road.
The ordeal of getting to San Francisco was no
longer so difcult. The Mission Road was
almost impassable in the winter due to the
gumbo-texture of the road bed. The train
became a more dependent means of getting
the farm products of the area to the San
Francisco market.
In 1894, Joseph Uccelli emigrated from
Italy and settled on former Lux-Miller Ranch
property along Grand Avenue and Oak. At
rst, he leased the property from the Lux heirs
but due to his thrift and hard work growing
violets, he was able to save enough money to
purchase a plot of land.
In 1903, the #40 Trolley Line was built
along Mission Road. A stop, Liepsic Junction,
was built close to the 12-Mile House. This
increased options for transporting the violets
to the downtown market to sell. In 1907,
Uccelli was able to convince his nephew Peter
to come to the United States and farm some
land by his plot. Later two other nephews,
Guissepi, and then Giovini, immigrated to the
area and began growing vegetables zucchi-
ni, beans and potatoes. Lettuce was tried later
and proved successful.
Numerous other, mainly Italian, farmers
settle in this No-Mans-Land between
Colma and South City. Included are:
Armanino family (Grand and Willow
avenues); Giannini family (owned land
around Holly, Heather Way in Sunshine
Gardens); Tiny Vago grew violets where
Kaiser Hospital is today); Rusticci and
Brusco grew vegetables at the point in
Baden In addition; the Spinelli family raised
violets next to Holy Cross (El Camino High
School area). There are many, many more
vegetables and ower growers that occupied
the vacant lands north of Grand Avenue and to
the west of El Camino Real.
In 1953, the land had become too valuable
for farming and the land between Chestnut,
Holy Cross, Hillside Boulevard and Mission
Road became annexed to South San
Francisco. The last farming activity in this
area was to the west of the home of the
Uccelli family who lived on Grand Avenue.
The Old Red Barn that had been a part of the
Charles Lux home at Chestnut and Mission
Road was torn down in the early 2000s and
houses, apartments and condos were built on
this property.
The 12-Mile House has been torn down, the
trolley line torn up, the Lux mansion was
razed and the Colma Creek (San Bruno
Creek) has been tamed allowing for better
roads throughout the year. BART was con-
structed on the old #40 trolley line alignment.

Honest, professional and reliable. Yelp
Mahoney learned early on that he
enjoyed working with kids and helping oth-
ers.
I found that, with helping others, you get
back so much more. Its not for praise but
knowing I made a difference, he said.
It was in late 2002 that Mahoney was set
up on a date with Michelle, who is now his
wife. He canceled after coming down with
the u and was intrigued when she gave
him a hard time.
I liked the fact that she was giving me
grief, he said, adding it was love at rst
sight when they met.
Shortly after they began dating, Mahoney
was diagnosed with PSC. He was told it
was terminal; most likely he had 10 years.
The autoimmune disease attacks the liver
like its foreign to the
body. As a result, liver
function diminishes and
it nally went into cir-
rhosis. Transplant is the
only real option for
treatment but one must
be very sick to get on
the list. Prior to being
reaching that level of
the disease, Mahoney
had another challenge.
In 2007, he was diagnosed with gallblad-
der cancer with about a 5 percent chance of
survival. His only option was a radical sur-
gery, which he took. After surviving,
Mahoney had a different outlook. He said if
he could get through that, he would focus
on keeping a positive outlook.
Hes been quite successful keeping that
outlook in recent years. Mahoney joined the
SCLC ve years ago. He and Michelle have
a 3-year-old son named Emerson. It wasnt
until this year that things took a turn and
Mahoney was placed on the transplant list.
Once the family decided to share what has
been going on, Mahoney has been over-
whelmed by the generosity of others in the
community. For example, the Chris
Mahoney Invitational Golf Tournament,
which benets the family, will be held 9
a.m. Monday, Oct. 22 at the Half Moon Bay
Ocean Course. Proceeds from the event will
be donated directly to the family. Individual
players are $250 while a foursome is
$1,000 to play. Skill level is unimportant.
The focus of the event is support Mahoney
who, as the website states, is a man who
has made it his mission to help the kids in
our community.
Anyone interested in learning more about
being a live donor can contact the Mahoney
family at savechrism@gmail.com. To sign
up for the Chris Mahoney Invitational Golf
Tournament visit

also allows for direct donations.

for $8.9 million to fund the reconguration of
the loop ramps at Highway 101 and Woodside
Road in Redwood City.
Absent from the list, however, are four proj-
ects that scored poorly against the agencys
technical criteria or did not meet the highway
program intent, including an application from
Belmont for a Ralston Avenue Corridor study
and improvements. The application request
was for $120,000.
Members of the Belmont Chamber of
Commerce and city ofcials plan to appeal to
the board at its Oct. 4 meeting to fund the
request, however.
The authority considered 27 applications
from cities and other agencies in the county
for local projects totaling more than $101 mil-
lion.
The other three projects not being recom-
mended for funding include an application
from Daly City for a trafc signal system
upgrade; an application from Millbrae for
improvements at Millbrae Avenue and Rollins
Road; and an application from San Mateo
County for bike facility improvements near
Alpine Road and Interstate 280.
The applications were reviewed by trans-
portation authority staff, Alameda County
Transportation Commission staff and Caltrans
ofcials.
While staff is recommending funding of the
23 projects, the board will make the nal
funding decision at its Oct. 4 meeting.
Other projects recommended for approval
include $7 million for trafc improvements in
Half Moon Bay along Highway 1; $7.5 mil-
lion for projects in Pacica including the
widening of Highway 1 from four lanes to six
lanes between Fassler and Reina Del Mar
avenues; and $3 million for improvements to
the Holly Street intersection at Highway 101
in San Carlos.
Other projects are recommended to be par-
tially funded including $5 million for inter-
change improvements at Highway 101 and
University Avenue in East Palo Alto; and $2.5
million for construction of a raised median on
Poplar Avenue between North Idaho Street
and Highway 101.
The authoritys role is to administer the pro-
ceeds from Measure A to fund a broad spec-
trum of transportation-related projects and
programs. It is an independent agency and is
governed by an appointed board of seven
directors, who are elected ofcials, represent-
ing the county, cities and the San Mateo
County Transit District.
The authority was formed in 1988 with the
passage of the voter-approved half-cent sales
tax for countywide transportation projects and
programs, known as Measure A.

Man arrested in attempted kidnapping
of 9-year-old girl from school
San Mateo police have arrested a San Francisco
man on suspicion of attempting to abduct a 9-year-
old girl from an elementary school on Friday.
Bradley Mrozek, 25, was arrested Saturday morn-
ing after police linked him to the incident at Parkside
Elementary School and to two prior incidents at
Horrall Elementary and Bayside STEM Academy,
Sgt. Dave Norris said Sunday.
Police believe Mrozek assaulted the girl at
Parkside shortly before 2:45 p.m. on Friday and
transported her a short distance away from the
school in an attempt to isolate her, Norris said.
The girl was able to escape by kicking her attack-
er and running back to the school, where she report-
ed the incident.
The attack was quickly linked to two other inci-
dents Friday, in which a stranger was escorted away
from Horrall and reported offering alcohol to stu-
dents at Bayside STEM Academy.

understanding situation for a teen, she
recalled.
Thomas remained enrolled at Mills until the
last semester of her senior year. She dropped
out at 17 and went to live at Daybreak,
StarVistas transitional living program for
teens, which helped her with a place to stay. It
gave Thomas a chance to work as a model and
take odd jobs.
She was able to save her money and then live
on her own. Shes still involved with the
organization as a result.
Thomas had always planned to go to col-
lege. Her mother had promised to offer
Thomas a place to live while she pursued her
degree once out of rehab. That offer was off
the table, however, at 18 when Thomas mom
made it clear she would be moving forward
with her life.
Thomas also decided to move forward by
starting a family with her then boyfriend. At
20, Thomas gave birth to her son Kingston
Jack. The couple didnt last. Thomas was a
single mom at 21, which made her realize it
wasnt the life she had set out to have.
At that point, I felt like I couldnt rely on
anyone any longer, she said, adding that is no
longer the case.
Thomas set out to go to college, realizing it
may take her longer given the circumstances.
She spent one year at College of Alameda
then transferred to Caada College.
She studied health sciences through biolo-
gy. She was particularly interested in addic-
tion. Noticing a divide in the types of people
enrolled in the science classes, she became
interested in working with programs that sup-
ported introducing opportunities through sci-
ence to students who arent traditionally
involved in it.
Thomas rst graduated San Francisco State
as a hood recipient and valedictorian. Now,
shes a second-year masters in public health
student who has developed the science, tech-
nology, engineering and math curriculum for
SF States Metro Academies program, which
focuses on retaining and graduating underrep-
resented, low-income and rst-generation col-
lege students. This semester, shes working
with the rst cohort of students to enter the
program.
Thomas will graduate at the end of this
school year. Her son will also graduate from
Carlmont High School around the same time.
Thomas is excited to see what will come next
for both herself and her son. Thomas may go
to medical school or pursue her doctorate.
Shes not quite sure yet. Either way, she plans
to continue working in the elds of public
health and social justice.
Achievement is not about the obstacles
youve overcome, Thomas said. Its what
you choose to do with your life despite that. It
doesnt have to be a sad story.

The largest September revision is $8.6 mil-
lion for countywide information technology
projects, including replacement of the voice
mail system and expansion of virtual and
wireless services.
One-time cost adjustments include
$620,416 for a negotiated labor increase with
the California Nurses Association, $1.8 mil-
lion to transition staff at the former
Burlingame Long-Term Care and smaller
amounts to shift coroner stafng, contribute
to the Mid-Coast Community Council and
adjust the civil grand jury budget.
The proposed budget is higher than last
years $1.756 billion budget which County
Manager John Maltbie in June attributed to a
number of capital projects, including $44.2
million for the rst planning and construction
phase of a 576-bed jail and $9.7 million for
tenant and seismic improvements to Circle
Star South which will house county depart-
ments including 911 dispatch.
Funding for the new jail has drawn dozens
of opponents to previous board meetings to
demand the supervisors rethink their desire
for a new correctional facility. At the last
meeting, speakers told the board they would
crowd the Tuesday budget hearing again if the
money was not removed from the budget
before approval.
By adding more than 500 beds to the coun-
ty jail system, the supervisors will strongly
discourage the sheriff from reducing the pop-
ulation while draining resources from life-
afrming programs and services that keep
people from becoming involved in the crimi-
nal justice system to begin with, said South
San Francisco resident Bernadette Rabuy,
member of Californians United for a
Responsible Budget, in a prepared statement.
The Board of Supervisors meets 9 a.m.
Tuesday, Sept. 25 in Board Chambers, 400
County Government Center, Redwood City.

pieces.
Committee Chair Charmaine Moyer joined
the group four years ago. She loves to garden
and to cook, so it seemed like a natural t.
Creating the unique spice mixtures takes time.
It can take three months to a year. First, the
product itself is developed through trial and
error, testing and tasting. Then, the ladies
develop a recipe (or more than one) that the
spice mixture will complement.
That way we can tell folk that its good
with this or to use it in that recipe, she said.
Often, delicious recipes are attached to the
jars; such is the case with the lavender sugar
a tasty mix only available during Holiday
Traditions. It was actually so successful that
another sugar was created for this year,
spearmint.
Its guring out how to use these special
spice mixes that Moyer truly enjoys. Ladies
will bring in their creations for others to try
a delightful treat for the volunteers.
This year, shoppers can also try Fault Creek
rub and lemon herb sugar. Named after one of
the four creeks on the property, the ladies
offer 15 recipes for the rub. The lemon herb
sugar features a lemon thyme grown on the
property in limited quantities. In addition to
the spice mixes, the Spice Girls make a vari-
ety of vinegar.
Some of the Spice Girls creations are avail-
able throughout the year at Filolis gift shop.
However, the new mixtures will only be avail-
able starting in November when Holiday
Traditions opens.
This years event, themed Let There Be
Magic, opens Friday, Nov. 23. Filoli closes
its doors for one month annually to allow for
the transformation. Step one is removing the
antique furniture which is replaced with items
for sale chairs, tables and cabinets, stuffed
animals, clothing and garden supplies.
Thousands of items will be sold during
Holiday Traditions. Elves, as the volunteers
called themselves, are already working on
frames and mirrors adorned with pieces from
around the Filoli grounds.
Holiday Traditions showcases several dif-
ferent events, tickets for which become avail-
able next week for members and in October
for non-members. Often tickets, which range
from $25 to $150 depending on the event, sell
out early. Tickets range from premiere access
to shopping to an evening of dinner and danc-
ing featuring the Joe Sharino Band.
Theres also a childrens luncheon
Saturday, Dec. 1, at which children eager to
meet Santa and Mrs. Claus have a chance to
party with the jolly man. Tickets are $35 for
children and $55 to $65 for adults.
For more information about Filoli and to

Volunteers Susan Chilton,left,and Carol Grassi
work together to create chili pepper dip at
Filoli Monday.
MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 2012
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Your way of doing things
is likely to be superior to those of your associates,
but you must be careful not to offend anybody who
cant keep up. Dont complain or show off.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- When you are left to
your own devices, you can be exceptionally good
at working out tedious complications. If you have a
problem to solve, seek a secluded place.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Show some
kindness by helping a friend complete an important
project. By doing so, you assure yourself of this pals
support down the line.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- As the day pro-
gresses, deliberately loosen up a bit. Dont make
everyone around you feel uncomfortable due to
unwonted seriousness.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Try to conclude your
business matters as early in the day as possible,
because when youre rested you are likely to be
thinking most clearly.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- If you and some
friends are going somewhere and you plan to share
expenses, you had better have a clear-cut under-
standing as to who pays for what.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Being too opinionated
causes others to walk away and do their own thing.
In order to attract friends, be open-minded and will-
ing to go along with others thinking.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- The days events may
cause you to get caught up with some essential last-
minute assignments. Plan ahead, just in case you get
stuck in the home stretch.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- If youre in need of
some fun after work, go out with your pals but try to
avoid crowed places. Youll enjoy yourself more in a
place where you can chat intimately.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- A matter youve been
anxious to get out of the way can be concluded to
your satisfaction. However, in order to do so, you
must make it a priority and not put it off for too long.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- By doing more listening than
talking, you could learn something of extreme value.
The secret is to fnd out what others know instead of
trying to impress them with your wisdom.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Financial trends look to
be exceptionally encouraging for you, not necessarily
in terms of making additional money, but for more
effective use of resources.

LOS ANGELES Homeland, which
puts the battle against terrorism on American
soil, was honored as best drama series at
Sundays Emmys and earned trophies for stars
Claire Danes and Damian Lewis. Modern
Family was named best comedy.
We feel so lucky, lucky not only to have
jobs in these challenging times, but to have
jobs that we love with people we love, said
Steven Levitan, co-creator of Modern
Family.
The drama Homeland stopped Mad
Men in its tracks, denying the show a record-
setting fth trophy and kept Bryan Cranston
from his fourth consecutive best drama award
for Breaking Bad and Mad Men star Jon
Hamm an also-ran once more.
The Emmys refused to play it predictably
Sunday, with Jon Cryer of Two and a Half
Men earning a best actor award and Jimmy
Kimmel proving a game but uneven host.
Im one of those pesky Brits, I apologize,
said Lewis, who plays an American in the
espionage thriller. I dont really believe in
judging art, but I thought Id show up just in
case.
Danes, eye-catching in a bright yellow
dress that gracefully draped the pregnant
actress, was effusive.
My husband, my love, my life, my baby
daddy, this doesnt mean anything without
you, she said to her spouse, actor Hugh
Dancy.
Backstage, Danes said she particularly
appreciated one fan: President Barack Obama
has said hes a fan of Homeland, about a
Marine and former POW whos suspected of
working for al Qaeda.
No pressure, the actress said. Its way
cool that he is a fan. It speaks to the relevan-
cy of the show and its hugely validating.
The acting trophies, along with a best writ-
ing award for the show, gave Homeland
momentum as it headed toward the best
drama award.
Aaron Paul won best supporting drama
actor for Breaking Bad and Homeland
won the best writing award.
Thank you so much for not killing me off,
Paul said of his drug-dealing characters lucky
survival. Thank you Hollywood for allowing
me to be part of your group, he added, noting
hed moved from Idaho to pursue his dreams.
On the comedy side, Emmy voters decided
that Two and a Half Men with Jon Cryer
and without Charlie Sheen is really good, as
Cryer claimed the best comedy actor trophy.
Dont panic, people. Something has clear-
ly gone terribly wrong. Im stunned, said
Cryer, who on the red carpet before the show
has expressed condence he wouldnt win.
Among others, he beat out two-time winner
Jim Parsons of The Big Bang Theory.
Ashton Kutcher, who joined the show after
Sheen was red, wasnt nominated.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus was honored as best
actress in comedy for Veep.
Andy Grifth topped a segment honoring
industry members who died during the previ-
ous year. Ron Howard, who played Grifths
son Opie in The Andy Grifth Show, said he
belonged in the pantheon.
Dang if he didnt make it look powerful
easy while he was going about it, Howard
said.
Phyllis Diller, Davy Jones of The
Monkees, Sheman Hemsley and Richard
Dawson were among the others honored in a
montage.
Earlier in the show, Kimmel dared to mock
the in memorian package that typically airs at
awards shows with one showing him in vari-
ous guises. Josh Groban sang a mournful
Youre Beautiful in background.
I will be missed, Kimmel said.
Maggie Smith was honored as best support-
ing drama actress for her tart-tongued dowa-
ger in Downton Abbey, unhurt by the pro-
grams move from the miniseries category.
Homeland, the domestic espionage
thriller, won the best drama writing award.
Modern Family made it look easy as the
comedy won the best direct-
ing trophy and Eric
Stonestreet and Julie Bowen
claimed supporting actor
awards.
There was at least a minor
backlash online as some ques-
tioned whether the show had a
deserving season.
Stonestreet was funny and
touching as he accepted for
his role as half of a devoted
gay couple.
I wouldnt be standing
here without Jesse Tyler
Ferguson, there is no Cam
without Mitch, he said, salut-
ing his co-star. We get the
awesome opportunity to play
these two characters on TV
and show America and the
world what a loving couple
we can be just like everybody
else.
Then he turned saucy: I
never knew Id be on TV as a
gay man, but I love the pic-
tures of hairy chests you guys
are sending me, its really
amazing. Thank you for
those.
Among reality competitors,
The Amazing Race was
honored as best reality series,
ninth time in 10 nominations
for the award. Tom Bergeron
of Dancing With the Stars won as best host
of a reality series.
Julianne Moores uncanny take on Gov.
Sarah Palin in the TV movie Game Change,
about the 2008 presidential campaign, earned
her best actress honors.
I feel so validated because Sarah Palin
gave me a big thumbs down, Palin said,
beaming.
Kevin Costner was named best actor for the
history-based miniseries Hatfields &
McCoys, while Tom Berenger was named
best supporting actor for the project and
Jessica Lange won supporting actress honors
for American Horror Story. Game
Change was crownd best series.
The Daily Show with Jon Stewart proved
unstoppable, winning its 10th consecutive
best variety show trophy.

A Health Center
Dedicated to
Severe Disc
Conditions
Youve seen the ads and heard the
radio commercials about my Non-
Surgical Spinal Decompression
treatment. At Crossroads Health
Center, Ive created an entire facility
dedicated to patients with severe disc
conditions that have not responded
to traditional care. My revolutionary,
Crossroads Method, provides a very
high success rate to patients with
serious back, neck, leg and arm pain
even when all else has failed. This
FDA cleared; non-surgical treatment
allows us to rehabilitate your
herniated or degenerative disc(s)
by reversing internal pressure and
enabling your disc(s) to heal from the
inside out. We succeed where other
treatments have failed by removing
the pressure that is causing pain to
your disc(s) and nerves without
drugs, injections, invasive surgery or
harmful side effects.
The only ofce to have
The Crossroads Method
This method which includes
computerized true disc
decompression is considered by
many doctors to be the most
advanced and successful non-
invasive treatment of serious back,
neck, leg or arm pain.
This procedure allows for a much
higher success rate by increasing
hydration of your discs, fexibility,
relaxation of muscles and ligaments
along with improving muscle and
core strength, balance and posture.
This results in a more effective and
lasting solution to your pain. There
are no side effects and no recovery
time is required.
This gentle and relaxing treatment
has proven to be effective even
when drugs, epidurals, traditional
chiropractic, physical therapy
and surgery have failed The
Crossroads Method has shown
dramatic results.
Patient Testimonials
During the 1 1/2 years of having
constant daily lower back pain and
spasms, I took anti-infammatory
and pain medication, but nothing
helped lessen the pain. When
an MRI showed that I had two
degenerative discs, I went through a
series of lumbar epidural injections
without success. The only thing
that made the pain and spasms go
away was Spinal Decompression
treatments at Crossroads Health
Center. Four years later and I am
still pain-free!
Lisa K.
My severe low back and sciatica
pain have been reduced signifcantly
since receiving spinal decompression
therapy at Crossroads Health Center.
I am now able to walk, golf, and do
things that I havent been able to do in
years! I would also like to say thanks
to Dr. Ferrigno and the offce staff as
they went above and beyond to make
sure my back problem was resolved. I
couldnt be happier!!
C.M. Allard
