FlightCar, an airport startup that allows people to rent out
their personal cars, has to shut down operations in the city
of Millbrae over a number of code violations.
Basic code violations the city noted included inadequate
response to issues such as lack of background checks of its
renters, unwarranted electrical generators, poor mainte-
nance of shrubs, re code violations among other concerns.
Emily Charley of the city attorneys ofce said it is only
just now that FlightCar has limped into compliance.
Theres no indication why FlightCar started building
before they received their rst building permit, she said.
They (FlightCar) said revocation was akin to anti-busi-
ness. We approached them with an open mind, but Millbrae
does not welcome businesses that dont abide by the rules.

The proposed San Carlos Transit Village
project once again appeared poised to
escape a City Council decision on approval
but not because a majority preferred waiting
until after the post-election reorganization.
After twice extended the meeting, the
City Council had not as of 11:30 p.m. dis-
cussed when it might take a vote. Prior to
the meeting, two members had indicated a
desire to wait until after the council reor-
ganizes in December with new member
Cameron Johnson.
However, the public hearing was devoted
mainly to staff and developer presentations
followed by lengthy public comment rather
than discussion of timing. The council also
approved 3-2 a request to waive the citys
below market rate requirements to allow
developer Legacy to build only 10 percent
of affordable units. At the suggestion of
Councilman Ron Collins, the council
required the percentage be evenly split
between moderate and low affordability.
The project was last proposed as 280 res-
idential units spread over eight buildings
with four stories, however, some of the top
oors have already been reduced by devel-
oper Legacy Partners in response to com-
munity outcry. There is also 36,319 square
feet of commercial space, a transit center
and 226 commuter parking spaces.
The council also has two alternatives
which make changes such adding trees and
cutting stories off some buildings. In the
second alternative, the units will drop to no
more than 265. The option, known as
Alternative B, proposes removing the
fourth oor from buildings one, two, three
and six and removing the third oor from
building eight. This plan will reduce the
projects visibility to the neighborhoods
east and south of Holly Street and along El
Camino Real. The commercial square
footage is also reduced.
If the council opts for either of the alter-
natives rather than the 280-unit model, Jeff
Byrd of Legacy said the company will be

The rst order of business in this
nights Probation Department sweep
is getting the equipment in gear and
double-checking contact information.
The bulletproof vests. The jackets.
The ashlights. The stickers for any
children in the home. The lists of
domestic violence offenders slated for
the nights unscheduled visit by law
enforcement to ensure they arent vio-
lating the prohibition on rearms that
came along with their conviction.
Rhonda Collins, the probation serv-
ices manager heading up the opera-
tion, updates the status of some
offenders handpicked by team mem-
bers for checks. One is in rehab so
scratch him off. Another was taken
into custody the night before. Scratch
him off the list, too. A few are high-
lighted because they have gang ties or
registered weapons
Once everything is current, the
group breaks into their respective four
teams for the operations, with two
heading south and one each to central
and north San Mateo County. The
sweep will cover Daly City to East
Palo Alto and many hands are on deck.
Thirty-two probation staff members
are joined by nine other ofcers from
the police departments of East Palo
Alto, Redwood City, San Mateo, South
San Francisco and Daly City and the
Sheriffs Ofce Firearms Compliance
Unit.
The participants arent ever certain
what they will encounter. But what
they do know is that the most impor-
tant tools they pack arent those with
bullets; it is their brain, their ears and
their eyes.
The sweep, a secret operation during
the month of October to coincide with
Domestic Violence Awareness Month,
targeted nearly four dozen residents
convicted of that specic crime and, as

Pearls are formed inside oysters. The
formation of a natural pearl begins
when a foreign substance slips into
the oyster shell. The irritant is cov-
ered with layers of nacre, which is the
substance that is used to create the
shell. This is what forms a pearl.
***
There is a simple test you can do to see
if a pearl is real or fake. Rub the pearl
gently against your teeth. A natural
pearl will feel slightly rough, like ne
sandpaper, because of the texture of
natural nacre. An imitation pearl will
feel smooth.

The domestic violence and assault convic-
tions against former San Francisco 49er
Kwame Harris should be dismissed because
the statute of limitations has run out on the
misdemeanor charges for the 2012 incident,
according to his defense.
Kwame Harris, 31, was scheduled for sen-
tencing Tuesday but instead attorneys
argued whether the convictions can legally
stand. After hearing both sides, Judge
Joseph Scott said he need more time to study
the issue and set the next appearance for
Dec. 20 for either dismissal or sentencing.
Harris faces up to roughly a year in jail
plus associated fees and counseling for
abusing his ex-boyfriend during a dispute
over table manners and underwear at a
Menlo Park Chinese food restaurant. The
former flame, who was
left with broken facial
bones, refused to testify
and also dropped a civil
lawsuit against Harris.
Prosecutors had origi-
nally charged Harris with
felonies but added the
misdemeanor alternatives
just before the jury retired
to deliberate. After less
than full day, jurors Nov. 4 acquitted Harris
of the felonies and convicted on misde-
meanor counts of domestic violence, assault
and battery.
The statute of limitations for a misde-
meanor is a year which is the basis of the
defense argument but Chief Deputy District
Attorney said the jury has the ability to con-
vict on the lesser included charges.
Harris defense never disputed he threw
punches but claimed it was self-defense after
the victim swung rst.
At the time of the Aug. 12, 2012, inci-
dent, the men were no longer dating but
maintained a friendship and Geier stayed
with him while traveling here for business.
That night, prior to Harris taking Geier to
San Jose International Airport, the men
dined at a two-person table at Su Hong To
Go. Geier poured soy sauce into a container
which angered Harris who questioned his
lack of table manners. Outside the restau-
rant, Harris accused Geier of wearing his
underwear and reportedly tugged several
times at his pants. Geier threw two punches
and Harris hit back.
Harris is free on $75,000 bail.

The wheelchair-bound former Mid-
Peninsula Water District worker accused of
stealing more than $200,000 to fund a gam-
bling addiction pleaded not guilty yesterday
to embezzlement in her rst court appear-
ance on the alleged crimes prosecutors say
went unnoticed for three years until she left
on medical leave.
Catherine Marie Abou-Remeleh, 53, is
charged with theft of government funds over
$200,000, identity theft and an allegation
of committing aggravated white collar
crime. After entering her plea, she waived
her right to a speedy prosecution and a pre-
liminary hearing was set for Friday.
Meanwhile, she remains free from custody
on her own recognizance and is reportedly
in assisted living because of the 2011
stroke that sparked discovery of the alleged
embezzlement.
Abou-Remeleh, of Hayward, was the
administrative services manager of the Mid-
Peninsula Water District which primarily
serves Belmont and reportedly worked there
for about a decade. Just before Christmas of
2011, she took a leave of absence after suf-
fering a stroke and another employee dis-
covered some nancial irregularities that
prompted its own audit in late 2011.
Those irregularities reportedly included
writing 187 checks to herself from the dis-
tricts Wells Fargo account between
November 2008 and November 2011. The
$247,881 in purloined funds was allegedly
used to pay gambling debts.
An anonymous source previously told the
Daily Journal her interim replacement
allegedly found a stack of checks hidden
away in a ling cabinet that were all made
out to Abou-Remeleh.
She also allegedly used the company cred-
it card which led to the identity theft charge.
The district launched its own audit and
turned over the ndings to prosecutors who
conducted its own forensic evaluation
before ling charges in October.
Abou-Remeleh returns to court Jan. 22 for
a Superior Court review conference prior to
her preliminary hearing.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SANTA CLARA San Francisco 49ers
linebacker Aldon Smith has pleaded not
guilty to three felony counts of illegal pos-
session of an assault weapon, stemming
from a party at his home last year.
Deputy District Attorney Brian Buckelew
says the 24-year-old San Jose resident
appeared in Santa Clara County Superior
Court on Tuesday with his lawyer and par-
ents.
The charges stem from a June 2012 party at
Smiths home. Investigators say several
shots were red, two party-
goers were injured and
Smith was stabbed. In the
subsequent investigation,
prosecutors say detectives
found ve unregistered
weapons in Smiths house,
including two Bushmaster
ries and an Armalite AR-
10T. They say those are
assault weapons illegal to
possess under California law.
Smiths next court appearance is sched-
uled for Jan. 15.

Stanford student pleads not guilty
to drunken driving, manslaughter
A Stanford Graduate School of Business
student Tuesday pleaded not guilty to multi-
ple felony charges related to a fatal wrong-
way crash on Highway 101 in South San
Francisco last month, according to the San
Mateo County District Attorneys Ofce.
Zachary Katz, 24, has been charged with
one count of vehicular manslaughter and two
counts of felony drunk driving causing great
bodily injury in connection with the Oct. 5
crash that killed 62-year-old Pedro Juan
Soldevilla of Puerto Rico, Chief Deputy
District Attorney Karen Guidotti said.
According to the California Highway
Patrol, Katz had a blood alcohol content of
around .15 when he drove the wrong way
onto southbound Highway 101 near Sierra
Point Parkway at 3:50 a.m.
He crashed into an SUVtaxi, which veered
across several lanes and was struck by a
Mazda, the CHP said.
Soldevilla, who had been a passenger in
the cab, was ejected and died at the scene.
Another passenger and the taxi driver were
seriously injured, the CHP said.
The driver of the Mazda was not injured.
Katz suffered several broken bones and was
hospitalized for four days before he was
arrested and booked at San Mateo County
Jail.
He remains out of custody on $250,000
bail, Guidotti said.
Prosecutors have requested an increase in
bail based on the number of charges, District
Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said.
Abail hearing has been set in San Mateo
County Superior Court on Friday at 9 a.m.
Woman recovering after
car rolled away on steep slope
A75-year-old woman was injured when her
vehicle rolled down a steep slope and
dragged her in unincorporated San Mateo
County on Monday, a California Highway
Patrol spokesman said Tuesday.
The accident was reported at about 8:15
a.m. on Tunitas Creek Road near state
Highway 35, in the area of the Tunitas Creek
Open Space Preserve.
The woman exited her car to open a gate on
a roadside property and the vehicle started to
roll away, CHP spokesman Officer Art
Montiel said.
She tried to reach through an open window
to stop it but was dragged about 12 feet,
Montiel said.
The woman eventually dislodged herself
from the car before it continued moving,
broke through the gate and rolled across
Tunitas Creek Road and 300 feet down an
embankment, Montiel said.
The woman suffered moderate leg and back
injuries in the accident.
Garage shot at for third time
An unoccupied garage on the 600 block of
Grand Avenue was shot for the third time
around 2:31 a.m. Nov. 12, according to
South San Francisco police.
The garage is detached from the occupied
residential property and a similar incident
was reported on Nov. 9 after gunshots were
heard around 2:54 a.m. and bullet holes were
found, said Sgt. Bruce McPhillips.
The owner reported an initial incident after
he found bullet holes in October, said
McPhillips.
Police have no motive or suspect at this
time and request anyone with information
call the San Francisco Police Department at
(650) 877-8900.
Demolition of old
eastern Bay Bridge span begins
The new, $6.4 billion eastern span of the
San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge is done,
and demolition of the 1930s-era bridge has
begun.
The tricky, years-long demolition of the
old span presents myriad engineering chal-
lenges of its own, said Brian Maroney, the
California Department of Transportations
bridge engineer.
The old bridge is the worlds largest armed
bow and arrow, Maroney said. We have to
de-string it very carefully or it will go
boom!
Crews conducting the $281-million demo-
lition will rst dismantle the old bridges
steel frames, called trusses, roadway deck and
piers that are closest to the new span, allow-
ing the new bridges bike and pedestrian path
to be completed.
In all, about 7 1/2 million tons of asphalt,
concrete and steel will be removed.
Contractors are concerned with how the
Depression-era spans old steel will behave
as heavy equipment is rolled onto it.
Crews will use gauges that measure strain
in each piece before it is cut, and will use
500-ton jacks to help balance loads.
Work was delayed on the demolition plan-
ning after a series of seismic safety bolts on
the new span failed, requiring extensive
engineering work and repair before its open-
ing.

Menlo Park couple walking their dog and
crashing into a car of teenagers before hit-
ting a tree pleaded not guilty yesterday to
two counts of gross vehicular manslaughter
and two felony counts of driving while under
the inuence causing injury.
Marjorie Ann Reitzell, 54, has been in and
out of the hospital herself since the Oct. 24
crash but was cleared for court just before 1
p.m. Tuesday and made it in time for the
afternoon arraignment calendar. After enter-
ing her plea, Reitzell waived her right to a
speedy trial and was scheduled for a six-hour
preliminary hearing Jan. 17. Meanwhile she
remains in custody in lieu of $2 million bail.
Reitzell has a long history of criminal
convictions, including several drug-related,
and a prior misdemeanor conviction of driv-
ing while under the influence from last
November. She was on
probation for that crime
when she allegedly caused
the death of Balbir and
Kamal Singh, 50 and 45,
respectively, just before
7 p.m. Oct. 24 as they
walked their dog on
Chilco Street. Reitzell,
who is on probation for a
2012 DUI conviction,
reportedly struck the cou-
ple from behind as they walked on the paved
shoulder before going over a center divider
and hitting the second car head-on then
coming to rest against a tree. The couple
died at the scene and their Chihuahua was
injured but survived. The four teenagers in
the second car had minor injuries.
Reitzells blood alcohol content was .23
several hours after the incident, said District
Attorney Steve Wagstaffe.

WASHINGTON Adding pressure to x
the administrations problem-plagued
health care program, former President Bill
Clinton says President Barack Obama
should nd a way to let people keep their
health coverage, even if it means changing
the law.
Clinton says Obama should honor the
commitment that the federal government
made to those people and let them keep
what they got.
The former president, a Democrat who has
helped Obama promote the 3-year-old
health law, becomes the latest in Obamas
party to urge the president to live up to a
promise he made repeatedly, declaring that
the if Americans liked their health care cov-
erage, they would be able to keep it under
the new law.
Instead, millions of Americans have start-
ed receiving insurance cancellation letters.
That, coupled with the troubled launch of
the health care laws enrollment website,
has prompted Republican critics and frus-
trated Democrats to seek corrections in the
law.
House Republicans have drafted legisla-
tion to give consumers the opportunity to
keep their coverage. Ten Senate Democrats
are pushing for an unspecied extension of
the sign-up period and in a private White
House meeting last week several pressed
Obama to do so. Sen. Mary Landrieu, D-La.,
has proposed legislation that would require
insurance companies to reinstate the can-
celed policies.
The White House says it is working on
changes that would ease the impact of the
cancellations for some people. But the xes
under consideration are administrative
actions, not congressional changes to the
law.
White House spokesman Jay Carney on
Tuesday reiterated the White House argu-
ment that the cancellations apply to only
about 5 percent of Americans who obtained
health care insurance. He also argued that
more than half of those people receiving
termination notices would benet from bet-
ter insurance at lower prices either through
expanded Medicaid or through new health
care marketplaces.
For the remainder, Carney said, The pres-
ident has instructed his team to look at a
range of options.
The issue facing the administration now
is how to ease the impact on people who
are losing their plans and dont qualify for
subsidies to cover higher premiums.
Carney said the White House opposes a
House Republican bill, proposed by Rep.
Fred Upton, R-Mich., that would allow
insurers to keep selling insurance that
doesnt offer the type of benets required
by the new law.
Any x that would essentially open up
for insurers the ability to sell new plans
that do not meet standards would create more
problems than it xed, he said.
Jonathan Gruber, a Massachusetts
Institute of Technology economist who
advised the Obama administration on the
health care law, said the White House has
few if any administrative options available.
One solution, he said, would be to offer a
transitional tax credit to those consumers
who are losing their insurance and must pay
more for new coverage that meets the laws
standards.
I dont know how you do that without
Congresss permission, and theyre not
going to give it to you, he said.
Clinton: Obama should honor health care pledge
SACRAMENTO Health insurer Anthem
Blue Cross of California has agreed to a two-
month extension of about 104,000 individ-
ual policies after failing to give the required
90-day cancellation notice, state Insurance
Commissioner Dave Jones announced
Tuesday.
The policies had been set to expire on
Dec. 31 but will be extended until Feb. 28
for those who choose to re-enroll. Notices
informing customers of the extension will
be sent out this week, Anthem said.
Jones said the company notified the
Department of Insurance that it failed to give
enough notice because of a computer glitch
and voluntarily offered to extend the poli-
cies.
Anthem spokesman Darrel Ng said a sub-
set of individual customers was inadver-
tently omitted from the original mailing
notifying them that their policies were
being terminated. He declined to say how
many Anthem customers were being notied
their policies were ending.
More than 1 million cancellation notices
have been sent to Californians as the
Affordable Care Act begins allowing indi-
viduals to buy insurance through exchanges,
Jones said. The federal law requires policies
to offer minimum levels of coverage, forc-
ing companies to terminate many existing
plans. But Jones said that under the law,
insurers have another year to do so.
Last week, Blue Shield of California said it
would extend 113,000 policies by an extra
three months after it failed to provide 180
days notice to customers. Blue Shield was
required to provide a lengthier notication
period than other insurers because it opted to
switch from being regulated under the insur-
ance commissioners office to the state
Department of Managed Health Care.
The state health care exchange, Covered
California, has been accepting customers
since Oct. 1 but has yet to say how many
people have signed up for new policies.

George W. Bush heads to Lenos stage next week
LOS ANGELES Former President George W. Bush is
headed to The Tonight Show next week to talk about
his post-White House years with Jay Leno, NBC said
Tuesday.
The 43rd president has kept a mostly low prole since exit-
ing ofce in early 2009 while the country was in two wars and
struggling with an economic crisis. But he made headlines in
July by urging Congress to reach a positive resolution on
immigration reform, an issue that eluded him during his pres-
idency, and he also appeared in Africa with President Barack
Obama at a ceremony to remember victims of terrorism.
Bush, a 67-year-old grandfather, is scheduled to appear on
Lenos couch Nov. 19. It will be the fourth time that Bush has
been a guest on Lenos show since his rst appearance during
the 2000 campaign season.
GOP blocks key Obama
court nominee in Senate vote
WASHINGTON Senate Republicans blocked another of
President Barack Obamas picks for one of the nations top
courts on Tuesday, the latest skirmish in a nominations bat-
tle that has intensied partisan tensions in the chamber.
The vote derailed Obamas selection of Georgetown
University law professor Cornelia Pillard to ll one of three
vacancies on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of
Columbia Circuit. The roll call was 56-41 in favor of ending
GOPprocedural delays that have blocked Pillard from winning
conrmation four short of the 60 votes Democrats needed.
The D.C. circuit court is considered one of the nations
most powerful because it rules on administration orders and
regulations and because some of its judges ultimately become
Supreme Court justices. The D.C. circuits eight current
judges are divided evenly between Democratic and Republican
nominees.

than Ortiz.
The San Mateo County Elections
Ofce released updated numbers from
the Nov. 5 election 4:30 p.m. yester-
day, but will also release nal numbers
today at 4:30 p.m.
Ortiz formerly had 15.6 percent with
1,644 votes and Cohen took 15.5 per-
cent with 1,634 votes, respectively.
The vote then ipped when numbers
were reported Friday and Cohen led by
17 votes. Yesterday, the latest count
revealed the vote difference had nar-
rowed, with Cohen still on top. Cohen
took 1,995 and Ortiz took 1,992
votes, according to the latest count.
Both have 15.5 percent of the vote.
Either candidate would ll a third open
seat, as two other candidates already
decisively won. Mayor Ann Keighran
got 22.96 percent of the vote, while
Councilman Michael Brownrigg took
20.55 percent of the vote.
Cohen, 54, said the race is certainly
closer than close. Cohen is vice presi-
dent of the Burlingame Historical
Society, founder and chief curator at
the Burlingame History Museum and
executive director of the Palo Alto
Business and Professional
Association. He was on the council
from 2005-2007.
I dont think it can get much closer
than this, he said.
The results are nuts, said Ortiz, 50.
He is waiting it out for the results
today.
I dont know if my stomach can
handle this, he said. You go from 10
over, to 17 under, to three under. Holy
smokes.
He has lived in Burlingame for 20
years and is the Burlingame High
School Drama Boosters president and
is on the Peninsula Health Care
District long term planning commit-
tee.
Meanwhile, another close race, for
the third and nal slot on the Belmont-
Redwood Shores Elementary School
District Board of Trustees, seems to be
solidifying with Amy Koo up 89 votes
over Herb Neuman after Election Day
results had her up 21 votes. Neuman
could not be reached for comment, but
as of Friday he had yet to concede.
Either candidate would ll the third
open seat on the board, as the other
two have already been decisively lled
by incumbent Charles Velschow and
Suvarna Bhopale, who received 22.8
percent and 18.1 percent of the vote,
respectively, according to the latest
results released today. Naomi
Nishimoto, Rakesh Hegde and Kelly
Redmon also ran. Incumbents Andy
Stulbarg and Brian Matthews did not
seek re-election.
In the Burlingame race, Nirmala
Bandrapalli, Steve Duncan, Alexander
England Kent, Andrew Peceimer and
Robert Schinagl also ran. Incumbent
Cathy Baylock opted not to run again.
Of the 15,857 people registered to
vote in Burlingame, 4,948 cast ballots
in the election, meaning voter turnout
was around 31.2 percent.
The provisional ballot count hasnt
been completed yet and Elections
Ofce doesnt keep records of vote
counting subtotals, so it is unsure how
many votes are still left to count,
Elections Office officials said. The
Elections Ofce will begin its 1 per-
cent manual tally Nov. 14 in anticipa-
tion of certifying the results in early
December. The tally conrms that the
election was properly conducted. More

FlightCars conditional use permit be
revoked and decided to close the business.
FlightCar came to defend itself at the meet-
ing, saying its corrected its issues.
This is a company nding its way, its
on the cutting edge of the carsharing econo-
my, said FlightCar representative Dave
Hyames. For those mistakes we apolo-
gize.
Members of the council disagreed with
FlightCar. It appears there was blatant dis-
regard for the permit and there are still vio-
lations, said Mayor Gina Papan.
The safety concerns are very, very
important to us, Papan said. These are
more than just trivial concerns, said
Councilman Robert Gottschalk.
Unfortunately, this is not sustainable as
its been conducted so far, Gottschalk
said.
FlightCars primary service is renting out
peoples cars through its website while
traveling, giving them a share of the pro-
ceeds, free airport parking and a car wash in
exchange. Customers are taken by limou-
sine from a nearby airport parking lot to
their flights at the San Francisco
International Airport, while the company
says renters get a cheaper price.
Issues with the city of Millbrae include
three FlightCar rentals being stolen since
the company moved into the 14,159-
square-foot 480 El Camino Real site on two
parcels of the former Daland Nissan, accord-
ing to the police department. The compa-
nys claim that one cant report a stolen car
for ve days is not true, police said. The sus-
pects in the cases have criminal records and
this invites crime into the city, police said.
In addition to issues with Millbrae, the
company ran into trouble this summer with
the San Francisco City Attorney Dennis
Herrera, who wanted to shut it down until it
complied with the regulations, including
conducting pickups and dropoffs at a special
area, paying 10 percent of gross prots to
the airport and paying a $20 per rental
transaction.
Other noncompliance problems included
the fact that FlightCar hasnt paid the citys
airport parking tax or obtained a business
license. A tax should be paid, said
Councilwoman Marge Colapietro.
Theyre adults trying to do an adult busi-
ness, she said. There is a history of non-
compliance. It appears to me that they were
trying to get away with as much as they
could possibly get away with. I dont want
to set a precedent for businesses who come
into this community and refer back to the
FlightCar matter and say look what you did
for them, do that for us.
City ofcials found a number of other
issues with the business.
On Aug. 15, the Fire Marshal Jim Allan
observed two electrical generators on the
site and a neighbor on Hermosa Avenue
reported to staff that a generator had been
operating 24 hours a day. The use of the
generators was never approved, according
to a staff report. He also observed a
makeshift exhaust for the temporary gener-
ator attached to a portable toilet enclosure.
The downspout/exhaust stack was unpro-
tected and was very warm to the touch and
could have potentially reached a tempera-
ture capable of burning skin, according to
the report.
Additionally, there was an empty fire
extinguisher and no smoke detector in the
temporary office structure, unauthorized
curb painting and stored vehicles present a
potential Class B re hazard. Dead plants
observed on the property also violated the
requirement that the landscape must be
maintained in neat, healthy and growing
condition, according to the report.
The use of the property becomes a viola-
tion of citys zoning code if FlightCar con-
tinues business following the revocation,
said Tim Fox of the San Mateo County
Counsels Ofce.

The nations first new guidelines in a
decade for preventing heart attacks and
strokes call for twice as many Americans
one-third of all adults to consider taking
cholesterol-lowering statin drugs.
The guidelines, issued Tuesday by the
American Heart Association and American
College of Cardiology, are a big change.
They offer doctors a new formula for esti-
mating a patients risk that includes many
factors besides a high cholesterol level, the
main focus now. The formula includes age,
gender, race and factors such as whether
someone smokes.
The guidelines for the rst time take aim
at strokes, not just heart attacks. Partly
because of that, they set a lower threshold
for using medicines to reduce risk.
The denition of high cholesterol isnt
changing, but the treatment goal is. Instead
of aiming for a specic number, using what-
ever drugs get a patient there, the advice
stresses statins such as Lipitor and Zocor
and identies four groups of people they
help the most.
The emphasis is to try to treat more
appropriately, said Dr. Neil Stone, the
Northwestern University doctor who headed
the cholesterol guideline panel. Were
going to give statins to those who are the
most likely to benet.
Doctors say the new approach will limit
how many people with low heart risks are
put on statins simply because of a choles-
terol number. Yet under the new advice, one-
third of U.S. adults 44 percent of men and
22 percent of women would meet the
threshold to consider taking a statin. Under
the current guidelines, statins are recom-
mended for only about 15 percent of adults.
Some doctors not involved in writing the
guidance worry that it will be tough to
understand.
It will be controversial, theres no ques-
tion about it. For as long as I remember,
weve told physicians and patients we
should treat their cholesterol to certain goal
levels, said the Cleveland Clinics Dr.
Steven Nissen. There is concern that there
will be a lot of confusion about what to do.
The governments National Heart, Lung
and Blood Institute appointed expert panels
to write the new guidelines in 2008, but in
June said it would leave drafting them to the
Heart Association and College of
Cardiology.

Typhoon victims queue for free rice at a businessmans warehouse in Tacloban city, which was battered by Typhoon Haiyan,
in central Philippines.
By Todd Pitman and Jim Gomez
TACLOBAN, Philippines
Desperately needed food, water and
medical aid are only trickling into this
city that took the worst blow from
Typhoon Haiyan, while thousands of
victims jammed the damaged airport
Tuesday, seeking to be evacuated.
We need help. Nothing is happen-
ing. We havent eaten since yesterday
afternoon, pleaded a weeping Aristone
Balute, an 81-year-old woman who
failed to get a ight out of Tacloban for
Manila, the capital. Her clothes were
soaked from a pouring rain and tears
streamed down her face.
Five days after the deadly disaster, aid
is coming pallets of supplies and
teams of doctors are waiting to get into
Tacloban but the challenges of deliv-
ering the assistance means few in the
stricken city have received help.
Ofcials also were working to determine
how many people had been killed, with
the countrys president saying the death
toll could be lower than earlier feared.
There is a huge amount that we need
to do. We have not been able to get into
the remote communities, U.N. human-
itarian chief Valerie Amos said in
Manila, launching an appeal for $301
million to help the more than 11 mil-
lion people estimated to be affected by
the storm.
Even in Tacloban, because of the
debris and the difculties with logistics
and so on, we have not been able to get
in the level of supply that we would
want to. We are going to do as much as
we can to bring in more, she said. Her
ofce said she planned to visit the city.
Presidential spokesman Edwin
Lacierda said relief goods were getting
into the city, and the supply should
increase now that the airport and a
bridge to the island were open.
We are not going to leave one per-
son behind one living person
behind, he said. We will help, no mat-
ter how difcult, no matter how inacces-
sible.
Tacloban, a city of about 220,000
people on Leyte island, bore the full
force of the winds and the tsunami-like
storm surges Friday. Most of the city is
in ruins, a tangled mess of destroyed
houses, cars and trees. Malls, garages
and shops have all been stripped of
food and water by hungry residents.
The loss of life appears to be concen-
trated in Tacloban and surrounding
areas, including a portion of Samar
island that is separated from Leyte
island by a strait. It is possible that
other devastated areas are so isolated
they have not yet been reached.
In Cebu, to the southwest, the
Philippine air force has been sending
three C-130s back and forth to
Tacloban from dawn to dusk, and had
delivered 400,000 pounds of relief sup-
plies, Lt. Col. Marciano Jesus Guevara
said. A lack of electricity in Tacloban
means planes cant land there at night.
Guevara said the C-130s have trans-
ported nearly 3,000 civilians out of the
disaster zone, and that the biggest
problem in Tacloban is a lack of clean
drinking water.
Water is life, he said. If you have
water with no food, youll survive.
A team from Midecins Sans
Frontihres, complete with medical sup-
plies, arrived in Cebu island Saturday
looking for a ight to Tacloban, but
hadnt left by Tuesday. Aspokesman for
the group said it was difcult to tell
when it would be able to leave.
We are in contact with the authori-
ties, but the (Tacloban) airport is only
for the Philippines military use, Lee
Pik Kwan said in a telephone interview.
An Associated Press reporter drove
through Tacloban for about 7 kilometers
(4 miles) and saw more than 40 bodies.
There was no evidence of any organized
delivery of food, water or medical sup-
plies, though piles of aid have begun to
arrive at the airport. Some people lined
up to get water from a hose, presumably
from the city supply.
Doctors in Tacloban said they were
desperate for medicine. At small
makeshift clinic with shattered win-
dows beside the citys ruined airport
tower, army and air force medics said
they had treated around 1,000 people
for cuts, bruises, lacerations and deep
wounds.

Lawmakers remove senator
from committee assignments
By Don Thompson
SACRAMENTO State Sen. Ron Calderon was stripped
of his committee assignments Tuesday amid a federal inves-
tigation involving allegations that he
accepted money in return for promoting
certain bills.
The Senate Rules Committee voted
unanimously to remove the Los Angeles-
area Democrat from all committees. Its
believed to be the rst time the commit-
tee has taken such action against a sena-
tor. No charges have been led against
Calderon, who denies wrongdoing and
said he was disappointed with the move.
Senate President Pro Tem Darrell
Steinberg said the committee was making no judgments
about Calderons alleged conduct and that the actions were
temporary, pending the outcome of the FBI investigation.
Steinberg said lawmakers were acting in the interest of the
institution.
Our job here is not to determine whether or not there has
been any violation of criminal law, said Steinberg, D-
Sacramento, who is chairman of the Rules Committee. Our
job is to uphold the standard of conduct of the Senate.

New beginnings

In these days of government dys-
function and mind-numbing cable

Everyone is gifted
Editor,
I found Dorothy Dimitres column
(Marching to a different drum in
the Oct. 16 edition of the Daily
Journal) exceptional. It brought a
tear to my eye because still today
there are a number of students who
are not realizing their potential and
whose needs are not being met in
school. One size does not fit all.
Schools need to be more creative,
know their students and treat each as
a unique and gifted individual.
Everybody is gifted, it is just we all
have unique gifts.
If each student were treated as a
gifted student in the classroom, and
all teachers truly understood the
gifts each student had, I suspect
we would have less bad stuff going
on in our society.

T
he San Mateo County Harbor
District maintains clean mari-
nas as a major public service
goal. The district is an independent
special district created under state law
by the San Mateo County Board of
Supervisors in 1933. The district was
created to build, operate and maintain
harbors in the county, and is now cel-
ebrating its 80th anniversary.
The district built its rst harbor at
Pillar Point on Half Moon Bay
between 1959 and the mid-1980s as a
harbor of refuge for the commercial
shing eet and other vessels. At
South San Franciscos request, the
District took over operation of the
citys Oyster Point Marina/Park in
1977.
Clean Marina Cert i cat i on
f or Pi l l ar Point and Oyster
Poi nt : In spring 2013, the district
received its clean marina certica-
tions for Pillar Point Harbor and
Oyster Point Marina for the rst
time. Both harbors surpassed the
minimum passing criterion of 75 per-
cent: Oyster Point scored 90 percent
and Pillar Point scored 92 percent.
The clean marinas program is a
statewide partnership of public mari-
na operators, private marina owners
and yacht clubs, which aims to pro-
vide clean boating facilities and to
protect waterways from pollution.
Program inspectors came from around
the San Francisco Bay Area. They
noted the districts program, initiated
and carried out by its Harbor Patrol,
addresses petrol containment, under-
water boat hull cleaning, topside
cleaning, marina operations, marina
debris, boat sewage discharge, solid
waste, liquid waste, sh waste, haz-
ardous materials and storm water
runoff. Our Harbor Patrol crews con-
tinue routine management and dispos-
al of a variety of waste materials,
public education on the importance
of proper disposal, and enforcement
of District ordinances.
Harbor Di stri cts Pl ace i n the
Coastside Community and
Resource Conservati on Di stri ct
Study and Water Qual i ty
Sampl i ng: The
Harbor Districts
primary role is to
serve the boating
public. However, it
has solidly estab-
lished its position
in the broader
coastside and
Bayside communi-
ties. For example, the district has
nancially supported the County
Resource Conservation Districts
(RCD) June 2013 study to identify
sources of fecal contamination in
Pillar Point Harbor.
Astudy highlight is that high
canine and bovine fecal bacteria
counts recorded at Capistrano Beach
and the Deer Creek outfall next to the
boat launch ramp are a landscape
issue, not based at or in the harbor
itself but rather in the upland urban
area [my emphasis] of El Granada
and Princeton.
The study recommends several
approaches to solving the problem,
including advocating more regular
cleaning of upland drainage pipes to
reduce contaminated sediment in
storm water drainage, encouraging
proper disposal of dog feces, pursu-
ing upstream bovine best manage-
ment practices by landowners, and
further investigation of fecal sources
from wildlife and sewer inputs to the
storm water drainage system.
An important follow-up to the
RCDs study is the regular monthly
sampling of inner harbor water quali-
ty by Harbor District staff. The staff
has been trained by the RCD, which
takes the samples and analyzes them
for various water quality measures.
Thus far, the inner harbor remains a
clean marina relative to the con-
cerns that led to the RCD study.
Sol vi ng t he Pi l l ar Poi nt Air
Force Stati ons storm water
runoff probl em: The State Water
Resources Control Board notied the
U.S. Air Force that storm water runoff
from its Pillar Point Air Force
Station, which overlooks the harbor,
was contaminating the environmen-
tally sensitive ocean waters of the
Fitzgerald Marine Reserve. The Air
Forces consultant proposed rerout-
ing the runoff into Half Moon Bay
near Pillar Point Marsh. In July
2010, the Harbor District, fearing
contamination of the enclosed harbor
waters which are frequented by the
public along Princeton beach, object-
ed to this approach. Eventually,
SWRCB approved the Air Forces
alternative proposal, which called for
on-site treatment of 90 percent of the
runoff and disposal into the ocean,
completely bypassing harbor waters.
Repl aci ng ol d sewer l i ne s
under Johnson Pi er and on
shore : The district is in the process
of replacing old sewer lines under
Pillar Points Johnson Pier and the
building occupied by restaurants and
shops. These replacements over the
next few months are part of the dis-
tricts ongoing facilities mainte-
nance and upgrade activities at Pillar
Point and Oyster Point.
Tightening regulations and
enforcement in Pillar Points Outer
Harbor to eliminate dumping of waste
materials and other unsafe practices:
The Harbor Commission recently
adopted ordinance code amendments
to strengthen its ability to regulate
and reduce environmental hazards in
the Outer Harbor. Several private ves-
sels are either moored or anchored in
the Outer Harbor under the umbrella
of the harbor of refuge. Many of
these vessels are either inoperable or
otherwise unseaworthy. Harbor Patrol

Harbor boaters meet environmental
regulations.
These and other efforts reect the
Harbor Districts commitment to
maintaining clean marina status for
its harbors.

Clean marinas Eat Like You Mean It?
W
e all assume that whatever is must be nor-
mal. Industrial food is not normal. Nothing
about it is normal. It is a grand experiment
on an ever-widening global scale. We have not been here
before. The three trillion members of our intestinal commu-
nity have not been here before. Joel Salatin, Declare
Your Independence, Food, Inc.
Today, when we read or hear about reports that appear reg-
ularly about how much of our food supply is increasingly
becoming a threat to our
health and well-being in
large part due to the reluc-
tance of our U.S.
Department of Agriculture
and the Food and Drug
Administration to stand up
to corporate interests that
are increasingly determin-
ing the composition and
content of what we eat and
drink how can we have
any faith in any govern-
ment agency that is purport-
ed to have our best interest
at heart? When you think
about all of the bacterial and
chemical ingredients in our food and environment that are
undermining our well-being, the future looks very dismal.
How much attention decit hyperactivity disorder,
autism, cancer and who knows what other illnesses and dys-
functions of children and adults are being caused by the
adulteration of our food? When will the possibility of an
epidemic of chemically caused poisoning of humanity be
taken seriously enough for our government to do some-
thing about it? There is no justication for this except to
increase prots for greedy, exploitative corporate interests.
Three recent examples follow. First, the adulterated. It
was reported that articial colors used in much of our food
can cause serious behavior problems in some children.
Studies report that symptoms are like those of ADHD.
Many children who no longer ate articially colored foods
(and it isnt easy to nd them) lost the problem behaviors.
This is only a drop in the bucket of the numerous chemical
additives in our food not just those that have been added
to products developed by industry, but those used on crops
like herbicides, pesticides, chemical fertilizers, etc.
Now consider the contaminated. Salmonella in Foster
Farms chickens was discovered recently that sickened at
least 278 people across the country that we know about.
For some unknown reason, the chicken wasnt recalled by
the USDA. It was allowed to remain in stores, yet people
could have purchased them and eaten them who were oblivi-
ous to the problem. It makes you wonder what kind of inu-
ence Foster Farms has over the USDA. Now Foster Farms is
apologizing on the radio acting deeply concerned about
the lack of cleanliness in their plants and assuring us that
the problem has been taken care of!
And yet, the USDAhad sent a letter to Foster Farms
informing them: these samples, coupled with illnesses
suggest that the sanitary conditions at the facility could
pose a serious ongoing threat to health. Then the USDA
reported that Foster Farms has failed to demonstrate that it
has adequate controls in place to address the issue. So
where have the government inspectors been? Who is pay-
ing them to keep quiet? Has there been a ne? Has anyone
been held responsible?
And then theres the manufactured Coca Cola, the
prime example of one facet of the food industrys total lack
of concern for anyones health. For example, some years
ago, Coca Cola decided to increase its prots by vigorously
promoting its products in Mexico. When I read Marion
Nestles nutrition column a few weeks ago, she reported
that the Mexican government wants to increase taxes on
soft drinks as a way to reduce the countrys high prevalence
of obesity and Type 2 diabetes. She wrote, This makes
obesity a relatively new problem in Mexico, one widely
understood to result from the introduction of processed
foods especially sodas into the Mexican food mar-
ket. This is a particularly egregious example of a corpora-
tion that has concern for nothing but prot s.
What is thoroughly disgusting is that this corporation
shamelessly broadcasts elaborate commercials (especial-
ly on PBS) that attempt to convince us that they are very
benevolent good guys who regularly fund good causes. I
guess were supposed to overlook the fact that their product
is undermining the health of numerous consumers.
Whatever happened to integrity?
We all need to Eat Like You Mean It by refusing to be
taken in by such blatant chicanery. We need to eat like we
mean it by avoiding those products that have been grossly
formulated or adulterated by the industry. We mean to stand
by our principles and refuse to add to the coffers of such
irresponsible and exploitative industries even if its
only prot from one bag of M&Ms or one Coke.
Our philosophy is not best expressed in words, it is
expressed in the choices one makes. Eleanor
Roosevelt.

Big movers
By Steve Rothwell
NEWYORK Disappointing com-
pany earnings and falling oil prices
pulled stocks back from record highs
on Tuesday.
NRG Energy slumped after the com-
pany lowered its earnings forecast,
leading other power companies lower.
News Corp. fell after the media compa-
ny posted an unexpected revenue
decline due to weakness at its
Australian newspapers. Energy stocks
declined after oil dropped to a ve-
month low.
Winners included airlines. The gains
were led by JetBlue Airways after the
Justice Department said it cleared the
way for American Airlines and US
Airways to merge, creating the worlds
biggest airline.
This years 24 percent surge in the
stock market has slowed in November.
The Standard & Poors 500 has edged
up 0.6 percent this month after an aver-
age monthly increase of 1.7 percent in
the previous 10 months.
The market looks tired to us, said
Jim Russell, a regional investment
director at US Bank. A little bit of a
pause is actually healthy, allowing
the economy time to catch up to the
gains the stock market has made.
After closing at an all-time high on
three of the previous four trading days,
the Dow Jones industrial average fell
32.43 points, or 0.2 percent, to
15, 750. 67. The S&P 500 index
dropped 4.20 points, or 0.2 percent, to
1,767.69 points. The Nasdaq compos-
ite edged up 0.13 point to 3,919.92.
Six of the 10 industry groups in the
S&P 500 index fell. Banks and utilities
slid the most.
NRG Energy was one of the biggest
decliners in the S&P 500, slipping 98
cents, or 3.5 percent, to $27.06. News
Corp. fell 27 cents, or 1.5 percent, to
$17.15.
Energy stocks fell broadly. Pioneer
Natural Resources, an oil exploration
company, dropped $5.63, or 3 percent,
to $182.70. Chevron lost $1.20, or
0.9 percent, to $120.
Stocks have climbed this year as the
Federal Reserve has maintained its $85
billion in monthly bond purchases to
keep interest rates low and encourage
borrowing and hiring. Now, investors
may start focusing more on an improv-
ing economy rather than the future of
the Feds economic stimulus program,
said Joe Quinlan, chief market strate-
gist for U.S. Trust Bank of America
Private Wealth Management.
The U.S. economy expanded at an
annual rate of 2.8 percent in the third
quarter, up from 2.5 percent in the pre-
vious quarter and more than economists
anticipated, the government reported
last Thursday. That was followed by an
unexpectedly strong October jobs
report.
Economic data has really come in
strong of late, said Douglas Cote,
chief market strategist at ING
Investment Management. Theres a
lot of room for this market to continue
higher in 2014.
Investors will also be following
Thursdays confirmation hearing for
Janet Yellen, who has been nominated
to succeed Fed Chairman Ben
Bernanke. Theyll look for clues about
when the Fed may begin to scale back
its economic stimulus.
Some discussion of tapering could
well take place next month, Fed Bank
of Atlanta President Dennis Lockhart
said Thursday in a radio interview with
Bloomberg Radio. The Feds last poli-
cy meeting of the year starts Dec. 18.
In U.S. government bond trading,
the yield on the 10-year Treasury note
climbed to 2.78 percent from 2.75 per-
cent Friday. The bond market was
closed Monday for the Veterans Day
holiday.

Seat belts on commercial buses delayed 45 years
WASHINGTON After a drunken driver on a California
highway back in 1968 slammed into a bus carrying pas-
sengers to Las Vegas, killing 19, investigators said a
lack of seat belts contributed to the high death toll. But
45 years later, safety advocates are still waiting for the
government to act on seat belts and other measures to
protect bus passengers.
Over the years, the National Transportation Safety
Board has repeated its call for seat belts or some other
means to keep passengers in their seats during crashes
involving the large buses used for tours, charters and
intercity passenger service. About half of all such motor-
coach fatalities are the result of rollovers, and about 70
percent of those killed in rollover accidents were ejected
from the bus.
The board has also repeatedly recommended stronger
windows that dont pop out from the force of a collision
and help keep passengers from being ejected, and roofs
that withstand crushing. Those recommendations are
nearly as old as the seat belt recommendation. No require-
ments have been put in place, even though all have long
been standard safety features in cars.
Southern California home
buying sees October uptick
SAN DIEGO Southern California homebuying
climbed last month compared with September but sales
fell short of a year earlier, a research group reported
Tuesday.
Atotal of 20,150 houses and condominiums were sold
in Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San
Diego and Ventura counties in October, up 5.4 percent
from a month earlier, DataQuick reported.
However, sales were down 4.4 percent from October
2012, and they were 14.4 percent lower than the October
sales average, the San Diego-based company said.
Southern California hasnt topped average sales in any
month in more than seven years.
The median price paid for Southern California homes
meaning half the homes sold for more and half for less
was $383,750. That was a half-percent increase from
September.
Tesla CEO: Definitely no recall of the Model S
DETROIT Tesla Motors CEO Elon Musk says the
company denitely wont recall its Model S electric car
despite three vehicle res in the last six weeks.
The headlines are extremely misleading. If re risk is
your concern, you would have a great deal of difculty
being in any better car than the Model S, Musk said.
There is one re for every 1,300 gas-powered cars on
U.S. roads, and for the Model S, thats closer to one in
8,000, Musk said during an interview Tuesday at The New
York Times DealBook conference. He underscored that
none of the drivers in the three cases was injured.
Theres denitely not going to be a recall. Theres no
reason for a recall, I believe, he said.

DALLAS American Airlines and US
Airways reached a deal with the govern-
ment that lets the two form the worlds
biggest airline and opens up more room
at key U.S. airports for low-cost carri-
ers.
The settlement announced Tuesday
if approved by a federal judge would
end a fight with the U.S. Justice
Department and head off a courtroom
showdown later this month.
It preserves hub airports in Phoenix,
Philadelphia, Charlotte and four other
cities for at least three years. And it
caps a series of mergers that have
already eliminated four big U.S. airlines
and stoked fear about higher travel
prices.
For American, the nations third-
biggest airline, the deal lets parent
AMR Corp. exit bankruptcy protec-
tion, repay creditors and reward share-
holders.
At US Airways, the No. 5 U.S. carrier,
shareholders will own 28 percent of the
new company, employees stand to get
more pay, and top executives will real-
ize their dreams of running an airline
even bigger than United or Delta.
The Justice Department said it
extracted the largest divestitures ever in
an airline merger. Attorney General Eric
Holder said the agreement would ensure
more competition on nonstop and con-
necting routes throughout the country.
For American and US Airways cus-
tomers, theyll get reciprocal frequent-
ier benets in January and, executives
said, more service to more places even-
tually. Doug Parker, the US Airways
CEO who will run the new airline, even
suggested that customer service will
improve because workers will share in a
more prosperous industry.
William Baer, assistant attorney gen-
eral for Justices antitrust division, said
that even a few more gates and ights
for low-fare carriers would help con-
sumers. He said that when Southwest
picked up slots at Newark, N.J., as part
of the 2010 merger of United and
Continental, it had a ripple effect that
reduced fares on many routes.
The airlines were close to nishing
the merger in August until the Justice
Department and several states led an
antitrust lawsuit to block the deal, say-
ing it would reduce competition on hun-
dreds of routes around the country and
lead to higher consumer prices. Atrial
was scheduled to begin Nov. 25.
To avoid the uncertainty of a trial,
American and US Airways agreed to
give up about 15 percent of their take-
off and landing rights at Reagan
National Airport near Washington
theyll still be the biggest airline there
and a smaller number of slots at
LaGuardia Airport in New York.

FROM NEAR DEATH TO A DEGREE: TIERRA ROGERS, A FORMER STAR AT SACRED HEART CATHEDRAL, GETS HER DIPLOMA FROM CAL > PAGE 13

Youll have to forgive Hillsdale head ten-
nis coach Jackie Nachtigall if she seemed a
bit nervous following her teams matches
Tuesday afternoon.
Its just that, its been a while six years
to be exact since she coached in a girls
Central Coast Section match.
Those nerves quickly turned into joy for
the Knights head coach when Brooke
Branting closed out her No. 4 singles match
against Tanvi Gambhir. It was Hillsdales
decisive fourth point and it secured the
Knights would not go one-in-done in their
return to the playoffs. Behind strong sin-
gles play and Mariko Iinumas continued
adjustment and improvement as a doubles
player, Hillsdale beat Salinas High School
5-2.
The goal has always been playing CCS
as a team, Iinuma said, who is a team cap-
tain. Were really happy that we got here.
Throughout the year, there were a lot of
tough times for us. I think those times real-
ly tightened our bond. I think were a really
good team.
Everyone is really proud of everyone,
Branting said. Were all grateful for the
players we do have, but were all trying real-
ly hard and support each other. I havent
played CCS before. Im really excited for it.
Im so happy we all made it to CCS. Were
all playing as hard as we can and show our
Knight spirit.
Nachtigall admitted the last couple of
weeks have been a shufing act for her. With
injuries across her lineup of players, shes
had to make moves, sticking experience

Saturday is the 52nd annual Bell Game
between the El Camino and South San
Francisco football teams.
Despite the rivalry being more than a half
a century old, this year will be a rst: a home
game for El Camino.
While the Colts have been the home
team every other year, they have never host-
ed the game. This year, however, thanks to
the passing of bond Measure J in 2010, the
school began a modernization of its eld
facilities, installing a new turf eld and all-
weather, eight-lane track, along with new
bleachers and press box.
Construction began in May and now, six
months later, workers are putting on the
nal touches in time for the Colts to nally
host South City.
Its been quite the nail-biter, said El
Camino Principal David Putney. Were
hearing its going to be done Friday after-
noon. Everyone is pushing hard (to get it
all nished). Were too far into it to back
out now.
Putney said tickets to the game and T-
shirts commemorating the opening of the
new eld have been printed, and invitations
to area dignitaries to celebrate the occasion
have been sent as well.
Putney said the new bleachers seating
capacity will be for 1,000 people 700 on
the home side and 300 more on the visitor
side. Count the standing-room only area
around the track, Putney estimates maybe

Christine Alftin has been ahead of her
time since the day she started playing vol-
leyball.
Alftin Woodsides 6-1 senior outside
hitter has always been a tall one. So,
when she began playing club volleyball at
age 11, she was immediately promoted to
the 12-year-old team. As she has moved up
the competitive ladder, she has consistently
played at a more advanced age level.
Now, Alftin is coming into her own as a
superstar. For the upcoming club season,
she will be playing at her age level for the
rst time, albeit in her second year with the
prestigious Vision 18 Gold. She was recent-
ly ranked the No. 55 girls volleyball play-
er in the nation by Maxpreps.com, and
earned a preseason Under Armour All-
American second-team nod. Next fall, she
will be attending Cal, with her ofcial sign-
ing ceremony scheduled for noon today at
Woodside.
And it doesnt hurt that she has a whole
Katniss Everdeen thing going on.
The thing about her is she is a complete
player, Woodside head coach Kyle
Mashima said. A lot of girls can hit, but
she plays the backcourt too and she and
[fellow senior Dani Walsh] are the two best
passers on the team.
As for her immediate agenda, Alftin is cur-
rently eyeing the postseason field, as
Woodside opens Central Coast Section play
tonight. The No. 6-seed Wildcats are set to
host No. 12-seed Branham in the Div. II
bracket at 7 p.m. The winner will travel to
No. 3-seed St. Francis in Saturdays quarter-
nal.
Coming off a momentous regular-season
finale in which Woodside captured the
Peninsula Athletic League Bay Division
title with a ve-set triumph over Menlo-
Atherton, the Wildcats are poised for a run at
a CCS crown. And Alftin is already looking
forward to a possible showdown with St.
Francis.
The way we played [last Thursday against
Menlo-Atherton] was just unbelievable,
Alftin said. We essentially played out of
our minds. Ive never seen us play like that,
which is good. I hope we can do that again.
Alftin hungry to make Woodside history

Quietly, College of San Mateo
running back George Naufahu is
putting together a stellar career as
a Bulldog.
Neither of which the manner
in which hes accomplishing it
and the fact that hell go down as
one of the all-time greats is a
surprise to those who bleed CSM
blue.
George did a great job, said
CSM head coach Bret Pollack
about Naufahus game against De
Anza. It did not feel like he had
229 yards at the end of the game. I
was actually shocked that he had
31 carries. I really didnt notice he
had that many carries and that
many yards.
Naufahus 229 was two yards
better than a record that has stood
since 1987. Afour-yard touchdown
run gave the former San Mateo
Bearcat the mark last Saturday as
the De Anza defense has zero
answers for his tough, all-up-in-
your-face style of running. The
performance was vintage Naufahu.
They tried to copy DVC
because they gured DVC had suc-
cess against us which they
did, Pollack said of De Anzas
defense. But if there was one team
that stopped you, and that team is
3-5, well maybe we stopped our-
selves. We had an adjustment to
make and we made it. It took them
a while to react. Its just a game of
cat and mouse. Its as simple as
whether I line up on your inside
shoulder or your outside shoulder.
So, once they changed, we
changed back. And George was
doing a good job of sliding off a
block and getting into the open
eld.
With at least two games remain-
ing on the San Mateo docket,
Naufahu fans will have a couple of
records in their sights. No. 9 is
ve touchdowns away from being
second all-time at CSM and sur-
passing former Carlmont Scot
David Aknin. Hes eight from rst.
Also, Naufahu is 270 yards from
being second all-time in career
rushing yards.
Additionally, Naufahu is just
341 yards from eclipsing Julian
Edelmans single season rushing
mark of 1,253. No. 9 can also
reach Sione Tavakes mark for
touchdowns in a season. Naufahu
is at 14 heading into Saturdays
game against Santa Rosa.
Tavakes record is 18.
Every game ... hes picked his
performance, Pollack said.
Theyre hard, tough yards.
Theyre not easy yards, the ones
he gets are tackle to tackle.
Caada repeat
as Nor Cal champs
The repeat is complete.
In what turned out to be a domi-
nating performance, the Caada
College womens golf team made it
a back-to-back championship run
by besting the eld at the CCCAA
Northern California tournament.
The Lady Colts, led by medalist
Shannon Wong and her 71 (-1),
bested second play Modesto
College by 46 strokes. As a team,
they shot a 322 after a 324 during
Day 1.
They both feel good, said
Caada head coach Rick Velasquez.
We sort of expected this one. We
just knew we kind of had to play our
game.
With the win, Caada advances
to the state tournament where
theyll represent the north with
Modesto. Santa Barbara and
Fullerton colleges will represent
the south.
The two-day tournament will
begin Monday, Nov. 18.
Naufahu dominates on field, Caada women on links
SAN FRANCISCO The San
Francisco 49ers released wide
receiver and return man Kyle
Williams on Tuesday after three-
plus seasons, while also waiving
cornerback Perrish Cox.
Linebacker Nick Moody was acti-
vated from the injured reserve/des-
ignated for return list Tuesday. The
rookie returned to practice Oct. 23
for the rst time since Week 1,
when he went on injured reserve
with the designation to return after
breaking his hand. Moody is a
sixth-round draft pick who transi-
tioned from playing safety.
Decisions like these are always
difcult, especially at this time of
year, 49ers general manager Trent
Baalke said. Kyle and Perrish have
represented the 49ers organization
very well, both on and off the eld.
We appreciate their dedication and
contributions and wish them all the
best.
Williams agent, Wynn
Silberman, was told of the move
Tuesday by the reigning NFC cham-
pions.
Were looking forward to the
opportunity to compete within the
league somewhere this year,
Silberman said. Were very appre-
ciative of the San Francisco 49ers
organization for the opportunity to
contribute.
Williams missed last seasons run
to the Super Bowl a 34-31 loss to
the Ravens because of a serious
knee injury but remained a key
member of the team and was hon-
ored with the teams Ed Block
Courage Award.
San Francisco (6-3) is looking
for more production in the passing
game, and Williams had fallen on
the depth chart with the return of
Mario Manningham for Sundays
10-9 loss to the Carolina Panthers.
In addition, 2012 leading wideout
Michael Crabtree resumed practice
last week for the rst time since
undergoing surgery in May for a
torn right Achilles tendon. Coach
Jim Harbaugh wouldnt say whether
Crabtree might be ready in time for
Sundays game at New Orleans (7-
2).

STANFORD If Stanford coach David
Shaw had his way, there would be an eight-
team playoff this season. The champions
from the six major conferences SEC, Pac-
12, ACC, Big Ten, Big 12 and the American
Athletic would automatically qualify, and
there would be two at-large bids.
It makes too much sense, Shaw said
Tuesday.
Unfortunately for Shaw and Stanford,
thats not the case this year or even next
year, when the BCS will be banished in
favor of a four-team playoff. All the
Cardinal, ranked fifth in The Associated
Press poll and fourth in the BCS standings,
can control right now is winning the Pac-12
title.
Even after beating Oregon last week, the
reigning Rose Bowl champions still have a
few hurdles to clear before it can host the
league championship game for the second
straight season.
The Cardinal (8-1, 6-1, Pac-12) visit
surging Southern California (7-3, 4-2) on
Saturday night before facing rival
California (1-9, 0-7) at home next week,
likely needing to win both to hold off the
Ducks in the Pac-12 North. Stanford also
hosts Notre Dame in its regular-season
nale Nov. 30.
I think were at that point in the season
now where we cant afford to go up and
down, Shaw said. Its November, and
theres only one way you can play in
November, and thats all-out.
The best message Shaw said he can relay
to his players is to remind them what hap-
pened last time they lost focus. Losing at
Utah last month is the only thing keeping
the Cardinal out of the mix with the four
major remaining undefeated teams
Alabama, Florida State, Ohio State and
Baylor for a spot in the BCS champi-
onship.
Shaw said the loss to Utah has had the
same kind of positive effect on his team as
the overtime defeat at Notre Dame last year,
when Stanford rebounded to win its nal
eight games, including the Pac-12 champi-
onship over UCLA and the Rose Bowl
against Wisconsin.
The margin for error is razor-thin again.
Even one loss would likely derail the
Cardinals dreams of repeating as confer-
ence champions and booking a return trip
to Pasadena.
That win-or-else mentality has every-
body at Stanford focused on the Trojans,
who have won three straight and four of ve
since Lane Kifn was red and Ed Orgeron
took over as interim coach.
(The BCS) is all hypothetical scenarios.
It doesnt matter at this point. We lose a
game, whew, its all for naught, said line-
backer Shayne Skov, who was named the
Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Week. The
recipe for us ending up anywhere relevant is
for us to win the rest of our football
games.
While most Stanford fans cant help but
ponder the possibilities if the Cardinal
were still undefeated, Shaw said his team
remains locked-in on the next opponent
because theyve been in a similar situation
the past few years highly ranked but not
in control of a berth in the BCS champi-
onship.
Shaw, who also has advocated for every
team to play the same amount of conference
games, said hes still excited about the
direction college football is headed. He just
doesnt have time for projections or poli-
ticking at least for now.
I think its why were going to a play-
off, Shaw said. We all enjoy the conver-
sations and hate the conversations at the
same time, because you shouldnt have con-
versations, you should have football. So I
think the playoff, most of us in college
football believe it cant get here fast
enough. I keep hearing people saying, Oh,
youre going to miss the BCS. Theres been
so much drama. I think the BCS has been
great for what it was used for, and I cant
wait for it to be gone so we can get to a
playoff, because thats where everything
should be decided, on the eld.
No. 5 Stanford focused on
USC, not the BCS standings

BERKELEY There were moments Tierra
Rogers questioned whether she would stay in
college, let alone do enough to earn her degree.
The former California basketball player, who
never played a single minute because of a rare
heart condition that could have killed her, has
that diploma in hand at last four years after a
frightening collapse that derailed her college
career before it began.
The highly touted guard stopped breathing
outside the Cal training room in September
2009. While she never played for the Golden
Bears, ranked No. 10 this week, Rogers attend-
ed practice whenever possible and played a part
in Cals rst ever trip to the Final Four last sea-
son.
Rogers battled depression and sought coun-
seling, but stayed in school to earn her bache-
lors degree in African American Studies. She
posted a photo of her diploma on her Twitter
account with the message that Without God,
Support & Family this wouldnt have been pos-
sible.
She credited not only her coaches but athletic
director Sandy Barbour and the Cal support staff.

1,300 to 1,400 fans could pack in to see Saturdays game.
People know [the Bell Game] is coming this weekend. I
think it will be really crowded. Thats why we suggest people
get there for the [frosh-soph] game, Putney said.
He added there will be a ceremony between the frosh-soph
and varsity games to ofcially christen the eld.
El Camino coach Mark Turner and his staff are excited about
the prospects of playing the Bell Game at home. All but one
member of the coaching staff are El Camino alums, and the
one who isnt started coaching at the school in 1971.
Its denitely a history-making day there Saturday, Turner.
It will be nice not to get on a bus for a rival game. It will be
nice to walk from the locker room to the eld.
Weve been the hometeam before, but it has never been a
home game.
South City holds a 42-9 advantage in the series, beating El
Camino 26-3 last season. The Warriors have won nine
straight against the Colts, with El Camino last winning 22-12
in 2003.
Or as Turner put it, Too damn long.
Over the last 20 years, El Camino has beaten South City
only four times.
Turner, however, wont believe it until he sees it. Hes heard
a number of deadlines for the completion of the facility.
Originally it was to be nished before the start of the season.
Then, midway through the schedule. Then, it was to have been
done in time for last weeks game against Jefferson.
Now, Turner is hearing by Friday.
Im always going to be doubtful until it happens, Turner
said. Not to be a pessimist, but I dont know whats going to
happen until Saturday.
Theyll probably be working on stuff on Saturday.
Putney said the school is not in control of the construction
timeline. Anyone who has ever had major work done on their
house or works in the industry knows that timelines have to
be exible.
I think people understand its outside my control, even out-
side the superintendents control, Putney said. We were hop-
ing it would be done in September, but there are so many mov-
ing parts.
Putney went on to say the bleachers would have been
installed earlier, but there was a delay in their construction and
transport from Texas.
Turner, however, said he doesnt have time to worry about
the eld. His focus is on getting his team ready for Saturday.
Turners big theme for his team this season has been oppor-
tunity. The Colts have failed a couple times already this sea-
son when given the opportunity to win a big game. Turner
hopes the Colts fortunes change this weekend.
As a coach, I have to do everything I can do to make my
team ready to play, Turner said. For most of these guys, its
one last chance (to take advantage of an opportunity).
Putney, however, is condent the school will be ready to go
Saturday to welcome their South San Francisco rivals. As far as
Putney is concerned, its full speed ahead.
Theres no turning back at this point. If I got the phone call
(saying its a no go), I would be shocked. It has to (go on)
at this point.
The [construction manager] is working on it said he hasnt
missed a deadline in 15 years.
BELL
Our womens basketball staff and the entire Cal community
are so proud of Tierra, coach Lindsay Gottlieb said Tuesday. She
is a model of courage and perseverance. Seeing her with her diplo-
ma from Berkeley in hand is just as gratifying as cutting down the
nets and going to the Final Four.
Rogers graduated despite a learning disability that makes num-
bers and reading comprehension that much more challenging. A
tutor helped her along the way not to mention former Cal
coach Joanne Boyle, who was there for every step at the begin-
ning before departing to take the Virginia job.
I spoke to her last week. So proud of her, Boyle said in a text
message. Im hoping for her to come visit me sometime soon.
Rogers career was cut short as she was still grieving 20
months after her father was murdered during one of her high
school games in San Francisco.
On Sept. 21, 2009, Rogers collapsed at Haas Pavilion after she
had trouble breathing during a workout. She was taken by ambu-
lance to a hospital, where she spent a week for testing and obser-
vation. Once doctors determined she had a cardiac condition, she
was transferred to UC San Francisco Medical Center. There, doc-
tors discovered her condition Arrhythmogenic Right
Ventricular Dysplasia and implanted a debrillator.
Last year, Rogers even began taking part in a clinical trial at
UC San Francisco in an effort to help others with her condition.
Ahigh school All-American at San Franciscos Sacred Heart
Cathedral Prep, her dad was shot to death at halftime of a game
across the street from her home gym on Jan. 12, 2008. She con-
sidered giving up basketball after that.
As it turned out, that decision wasnt hers to make.
Rogers has appreciated everybody who stayed involved to
keep her going through the tough times.
Not possible without the entire staff, Rogers wrote.
ROGERS
with inexperience as her teams turned the Peninsula Athletic
League corner and headed toward CCS.
None of those injuries or moves has been more signi-
cant than Iinumas move from the No. 3 singles spot to No.
1 doubles. Still, the move and an ankle injury havent
stopped the junior from leaving her mark. On Tuesday, her
and freshman Kathy Li made 6-1, 6-0 work of Jill
Zimmerman and Hannah Shaw.
Today was our fourth time playing together, Iinuma
said. We were able to communicate well. Whenever I knew
I couldnt get a ball because of the ankle, shed get it for me.
I think our communications skills were good today. It was a
really fun match.
Her teammate Cindy Liu might say her match was fun as
well with the way she disposed of Alissa Loftus in quick 6-
0, 6-0 fashion. Liu rebounded nicely from her runner-up n-
ish against Carlmonts Cori Sidell in the PAL champi-
onship match.
Natalie Spievacks 6-1, 6-1 win at No. 2 singles inched
the Knights closer to victory shortly after.
But Hillsdale dropped a point at No. 3 singles before
Branting proved to herself she had enough in the tank to
overtake Gambhir 7-5 in the second set. In only her second
time playing singles for the Knights, the senior was the
Hillsdale hero for the day.
In the beginning, I was pretty strong, Branting said.
But near the end I was getting a little more tired because Im
not used to singles. I think its a combination of stamina
and not being used to the court. In singles court, youre lim-
ited. In doubles, I feel like you have more freedom and you
have someone to rely on.
Hillsdales reward for a well-deserved win in a match with
No. 1 Menlo School at 2 p.m. Wednesday.
In other CCS action, Carlmont beat Los Gatos 5-2. The
Scots advance to play No. 2 Saratoga, which is 12-5 on the
year.
Meanwhile, the Aragon Dons saw their season come to an
end at the hand of Carmel, 5-2. The Dons nish their 2013
season with an 11-9 record.

If we keep playing like that, we can take St.
Francis on Saturday, and hopefully even
make it to the championship.
A clash with the West Catholic Athletic
League powerhouse has a special meaning to
Alftin for several reasons. Last year, it was
St. Francis that eliminated Woodside in the
opening round of CCS play. And on a per-
sonal note, Alftin played at St. Francis for
two years, before transferring after her soph-
omore season to take up with Woodside as a
junior.
Of course, its an old sports adage that a
team should never look past the opponent at
hand. But the ercely competitive Alftin just
cant help herself.
Especially for me coming from St.
Francis, its hard not to skip forward and start
thinking about it, and start planning out how
were going to beat them, Alftin said.
Peaking at the right time, it seems this
could be the team to do what no Woodside
squad has done in the history of CCS girls
volleyball. The Wildcats have never
advanced past the seminal round, twice
making it as far; rst in 1989, and again in
2007.
This years starting sixAlftin, Walsh,
senior Haili Hoeft, junior Heilani Hoeft,
sophomore Jesse Larkin, junior Danielle La
Force, along with senior libero Ana
Oropezatook the court in last weeks regu-
lar-season nale wondering if it would be
their last home game of the season. Going
into todays playoff opener, they know it
will be the teams nal match on its home
court.
Also the odds-on favorite to capture Bay
Division MVP honors, Alftins success
should come as no surprise. After all, she
belongs to a very athletic family. Her father,
Per, was a competitive skier in his native
Sweden until relocating to the U.S. at 22. Her
mother, Jenine, was a three-sport prep ath-
lete. And of her four siblings, all of whom are
athletes, two of them currently row crew in
college.
Still, Alftin, admittedly something of a
homebody, has got some butteries about
leaving home for Cal next year.
Its not because Im a baby, Alftin said.
I just enjoy being with my family. And I
think its going to be hard for me in college,
but itll be a good hard. Itll be a wake-up
call.
With hopes riding high into tonights
postseason opener, Woodside is looking to
serve a walk-up call to the world of CCS
girls volleyball.

DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Ali Vidali may have a most melod-
ic name, but no one dare tease her
about it.
Terra Novas volleyball star jun-
ior stands 5-11, which is intimidat-
ing enough. But once she gets air-
borne, Vidali is one of the ercest
hitters in the Peninsula Athletic
League.
People remember me that way,
Vidali said of her alliterative name.
They always nd it really interest-
ing, and they always think Im kid-
ding when I tell them my name.
Vidali is a third-year varsity play-
er, and is all-but certain to soon tab
her third rst-team All-League nod
in as many seasons. Since winning
the Ocean Division titleTerra
Novas rst since 2009she is also
looking to lead her Tigers to their
rst postseason win in 30 years, as
Central Coast Section play begins
tonight with No. 9-seed Terra Nova
opening Div. III play at No. 8-seed
Notre Dame-San Jose at 7 p.m.
Although seven teams from the
Bay Division qualied for the CCS
playoffs, Terra Nova is the only
team representing the Ocean
Division. Following a two-team
race with Sequoia, the Cherokees
were denied an at-large bid, stress-
ing the importance of Terra Nova
sweeping the season series between
the two.
Sequoia is a really strong team,
Vidali said. If they got a bid, I
would not have been surprised. I am
a little surprised that they havent
but they denitely played hard,
and it could have gone either way
very easily.
Sequoia was denied by virtue of
power points, a ranking-system
that is also affecting Terra Nova in
the CCS opening round. Despite n-
ishing the season with an overall
record of 20-2, Terra Nova will open
on the road against an Notre Dame-
San Jose team that nished the sea-
son at 16-17 overall.
To make matters worse, Terra
Nova libero Katie McKay is con-
tending with an ankle sprain. After
rolling her left ankle in practice two
weeks ago, the sophomore missed
the nal three games of the regular
season. She was nally cleared to
start practicing at the beginning of
the week, and said she felt the ankle
was at 75 percent after of last
nights practice.
Im just going to see how it
goes, McKay said. Im planning
on playing, and hoping [head coach
Craig Dillie] will put me in, and Ill
just do my best.
Terra Nova is still a relatively
young team with only one senior in
its starting lineup. But there is a
sense of urgency to make a mark in
the CCS playoffs, as the Tigers
havent won a postseason match
since capturing the Div. II title in
1983.
Vidali is the type of catalyst that
seems tailor-made to make history
though. This year, she committed to
playing volleyball year round, after
dabbling in track and eld as a fresh-
man, and swimming as a sopho-
more. Now, she is committed to the
club volleyball circuit, and is slated
to play the upcoming season with
Encore 18 out of Redwood City.
And while she has another year to
decide on college, Vidali has her
sights set high. She isnt sure
where, but she hopes to play for a
Division I program.
I shoot for the stars, so I say DI,
Vidali said.

An easy grilled chicken
youll go bananas over
By J.M. Hirsch
Most of us have a pretty limited banana repertoire. We eat
them straight up, baked into quick breads, pureed into
smoothies, or sliced into either fruit salad or some sort of
breakfast food. Thats about it.
But a friend recently if unknowingly introduced me
to the savory side of bananas, and I was completely smitten.
Sassy Latina chef Daisy Martinez loves working big,
bold avors into easy dishes. Thats my style of cooking.
So when she recently launched a great new web video series,
I was eager to watch the rst episode a breezy walk
through her take on fried chicken. Im sure the chicken is
delicious, but it was one offhand comment about a condi-
ment that really caught my attention.
Banana ketchup.
Sounds odd, yes. But Ill confess that I consider ketchup
in all its forms to be a major food group unto itself.
And I simply had to try Daisys recipe. Turns out it is easy
to make and delivers an amazing sweet and tangy punch that
blew me away. Think of it as the Hispanic equivalent of
Asian sweet-and-sour sauce. It totally works.
Serve this on tortillas, in buns, over rice or just straight up.

Ive now used this sauce on chicken in
several ways. The easiest is to simply cut up
boneless, skinless chicken breasts, saute
them with olive oil and onion, then dump in
the sauce and just bring to a simmer. Serve
this on tortillas, in buns, over rice or just
straight up. But since grilling season still
is going strong, I decided to create a recipe
suitable for chicken on the grill.
CHICKEN KEBABS WITH
CHILI-BANANA SAUCE
I like to briey brine my chicken breasts
when cooking them kebab-style. It adds a-
vor and keeps them from drying out.
Start to nish: 45 minutes (15 minutes
active)
Servings: 4
1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 1/4 pounds boneless, skinless chicken
breasts (about 3), cut into 1-inch chunks
1 1/2 bananas
1/2 cup ketchup
1 to 2 whole fresh jalapenos (for less
heat, split them open and remove the seeds
and ribs)
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar or cider
vinegar
In a large zip-close plastic bag, combine
the water, salt, paprika and pepper. Close
the bag and shake to blend, then add the
chicken. Seal the bag, then turn to coat the
chicken. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. If
using wooden skewers for the kebabs, soak
them in water while the chicken brines.
Meanwhile, in a blender or food processor
combine the bananas, ketchup, jalapenos
and vinegar. Puree until very smooth. Set
aside.
When ready to cook, heat the grill to
medium-high. Use an oil-soaked paper
towel held with tongs to oil the grill grates.
Remove the chicken from the brine, then
thread the pieces onto 4 skewers. Grill,
turning regularly, until cooked through,
about 12 minutes total. Using a basting
brush, lightly coat the kebabs on all sides
with chili-banana sauce, then grill for
another minute. Transfer the kebabs to serv-
ing plates, then drizzle each with additional
sauce.
CHICKEN
pressed to accommodate the 10 percent
moderately affordable units.
The more units we have the more exi-
bility we have, Byrd said.
During public comment, several speakers
called on the council to hold off on the
votes of the project and the housing waiver
because there are still too many unsettled
issues about the projects size, scope and
impacts.
You must take the time to make it right,
said Tim Hilborn.
The Greater East San Carlos group wants
guarantees that trees planted on the berm
will be viable with future electrication,
that shuttles will be moved to the east side
of El Camino Real and that residents wont
be stuck paying for parking permits. The
advocates also want 100 percent of collect-
ed park in-lieu fees to be exclusively for
improvements or expansion of Laureola
Park.
But not every speaker opposed the project
and many lauded it for providing more hous-
ing and economic opportunities.
No project is perfect Ive seen in 40
years, said former mayor Don Eaton.
Architecturally the project is sound.
Suzanne Stevens said the land is the citys
rst impression to visitors which is why
she supports replacing the now-vacant lots
used seasonally for Christmas trees and
pumpkin patches.
I think its a shame it looks the way it
does, she said.

VILLAGE
By Mary Esch
SCHAGHTICOKE, N.Y. Justine and
Brian Denison say they adhere to all the
growing practices required for organic certi-
cation, yet if they label their beans and
tomatoes organic at the farmers market,
they could face federal charges and $20,000
or more in nes.
Because the Denisons chose not to seek
organic certification by the U.S.
Department of Agriculture, the Denison
Farm, which has been under organic man-
agement for more than 20 years, is banned
from using that term. So they and hundreds
of other small direct-marketing farms
across the country have adopted an alterna-
tive label: Certied Naturally Grown.
Started by a group of organic farmers in
New Yorks mid-Hudson Valley as a backlash
against federal takeover of the organic pro-
gram in 2002, Certied Naturally Grown has
expanded over the past decade to include
more than 700 farms in 47 states, executive
director Alice Varon said.
Certied Naturally Grown is tailored for
direct-market farmers producing food with-
out any synthetic chemicals specically for
their local communities, Varon said. Its a
particular niche of the agricultural world. Its
not in direct competition with the national
organic program.
Many small farmers previously certied
organic by an independent organization
have declined to participate in the federal
program. They voice a variety of objections:
extensive record-keeping requirements; fees
that can amount to 6 percent of a small farms
gross sales; and philosophical objections to
joining a monolithic government-run pro-
gram that also certies huge operations that
ship produce across the country.
We have noticed over time that more and
more farmers often, younger farmers
who appear to be following organic prac-
tices dont bother to get certied, said Jack
Kittredge, co-owner of a certied organic
farm in Barre, Mass., and editor of The
Natural Farmer, journal of the Northeast
Organic Farming Association. My major
concern is that sometimes, unless youre cer-
tied youre not even aware of some of the
problems, such as calling livestock organ-
ic even though the animals eat feed contain-
ing genetically modied crops.
Atina Difey, an organic farming consult-
ant and author in Farmington, Minn., said
alternative labels create confusion for cus-
tomers. She said there are only about 13,000
USDAcertied organic farms out of 2.2 mil-
lion farms, and more organic farms are need-
ed to bolster the movements impact on
national farm policy. When farms have an
alternative certication, theyre not count-
ed, she said.
Sam Jones, spokesman for USDAs
organic certification program, said the
agency doesnt comment on guidelines
other than its own and doesnt take a posi-
tion on whether alternative labels cause
confusion.

SAN FRANCISCO Wineries are coming
out loud and proud in their support of gay
marriage. Theyre putting it right on the
label.
Little by little, were breaking down the
barrier, says Gary Saperstein of Out in the
Vineyard, an events and tour company based
in Sonoma wine country that caters to gay
travelers.
One of the barrier-breakers is Same Sex
Meritage, a red blend that sends its message
on the bottle and at the cash register $1
for every bottle sold is donated to the advo-
cacy group Freedom to Marry.
Its the right thing to do, says Matt
Gold, who is based in Chicago and teamed
with Josh Stein of Stein Family Wines in
California to make the wine, which
launched last December. Meritage is a brand
name that refers to a Bordeaux-style blend.
And, of course, it sounds a lot like marriage.
Gold and Stein see their business partner-
ship as a way to make wine and make a state-
ment. Everyone should have the right to
marry. Everyone should have the same
rights as anyone else, says Gold.
Same Sex Meritage isnt the only wine
reaching out to the LGBT community.
Egalite, a bubbly from the Burgundy
region of France, was launched earlier this
year with the name French for equality
reecting the wines origins as a Burgundy
cremant (sparkling wine) and its support for
the gay community. Each quarter, a portion
of prots is donated to a LGBT nonprot
organization chosen by fans of the wine on
Facebook; $15,000 has been donated since
the wines January launch.
From Stand Tall Wines, theres Genetic
Pinot Noir, which refers to sexual orienta-
tion having genetic origins. Stand Tall
Wines was founded by Larisa Stephenson
and partner Dana Sabin. The wine is being
made in the Napa Valley using grapes
shipped from Oregons Willamette Valley
and 1 percent of Genetic sales is being
donated to the Napa LBGTQ Project (which
is the process of changing its name to
LGBTQ Connection).
More wines come out in support of gay unions

such, prohibited from possessing a gun.
Although the effort is aimed at the
weapon restriction, the visits are also a
chance to make sure their probationers
are toeing the line in all regards and
serve as reminder that their offense
leaves them open to search and seizure
at any time for the duration.
The most common refrain every time
a team or member checks in is to be safe.
Thats the primary goal of the night.
But Collins has another thought as the
group leaves the Probation Department
conference room in the late afternoon.
Dont worry if you dont get to
everybody on the list, Collins said.
Its not like they know youre coming
and will be disappointed.
***
In addition to potential incarceration,
a typical rst-time misdemeanor offend-
er spends 18 months on supervised pro-
bation followed by 18 months court
probation. A felony carries three years
supervised probation. Each requires the
offender to complete 104 hours of
domestic violence counseling.
Collins said the San Mateo County
Probation Departments adult domestic
violence success rate dened as not
reoffending is between 83 percent
and 86 percent. The real challenge is
getting the victim to take the rst step
to report the abuse.
Detective Bridget Hensley, a rearms
expert with the Sheriffs Ofce who that
night was contacting the registered gun
owners and conscating weapons from
any probationer with them, said while
some victims fear their abusers retribu-
tion others wont contact authorities
because of their own potential crimes or
questionable actions.
Just because you live a certain
lifestyle doesnt make you ineligible to
be a victim, she said.
***
As the teams visit their assigned pro-
bationers, Hensley and Collins rotate
between them and coordinate with local
police departments to make sure their
covert operation doesnt inadvertently
trip up other activity. The rst stop is in
Redwood City actually, a fast-food
parking lot to coordinate, which man-
ages to nab a little attention. Collins
make a point to visit a parked driver
throwing glances their way; she is only
the rst of many curious passersby and
neighbors that night as the white vans
and black-clad ofcers pay visit. Its
important for them to know something
routine is going on and the county is
keeping the area safe, Collins said,
adding that the point is always to be
positive.
Next the team heads to a street with
well-manicured lawns and collections of
Halloween decorations. Cars in the
driveway run the gamut of makes and
models and it isnt surprising the
appearance of ofcers leads to ques-
tions. But the subject isnt
home. Hensley had been keen
to meet with him because of
his registered Beretta, but it is
too early in the evening and
some on the list are still at
work. Domestic violence is
an equal opportunity crime,
across the socio-economic
spectrum, Hensley said.
Theyll circulate back again
later if there is time.
***
Although the focus is on
weapons this particular
evening, domestic violence
isnt necessarily a crime that
needs more than opportunity.
The majority of weapons are
hands, feet and sts, Hensley
said. Yet, women are 20 times
more like to die at the hands
of a rearm if it is in the
home, Hensley said.
In San Mateo County, most
domestic cases dont escalate
to homicide but that doesnt
mean there is a lack of crimes.
Roughly, an equal number of
cases submitted to prosecu-
tors are rejected and led. Few go to
trial. In 2001, the District Attorneys
Ofce rejected 669 case, led 674 and
saw six jury trials. Five came back
guilty and one jury hung. In 2012, 628
cases were rejected, 691 cases were led
and 14 went to jury trial. Nine came
back guilty and the rest hung, said Chief
Deputy District Attorney Karen
Guidotti.
Judge V. Raymond Swope recently
took over as the dedicated domestic vio-
lence judge which has provided more
conformity in sentencing decisions and
means offenders who violate their pro-
bation know exactly who theyll face
upon return. And those who succeed may
feel a more vested interest. The job isnt
necessarily the most coveted but Swope
specically requested the assignment.
***
At an East Palo Alto group home, the
team meets up with Robin. The woman,
who suffers from some depressive issues
and mental challenges, thinks highly of
her probation ofcer and is glad to know
she passed the check. But a few others in
the home of six are also on probation.
Although not targeted and not convicted
of domestic violence, they are searched
and questioned just by virtue of their
probation status and where they happen
to be.
A similar wrong place, wrong time
scenario also happens elsewhere in East
Palo Alto. The probationer was ne; but
the two males possession of enough
marijuana for sale in the garage? Not so
much. The sweep teams had planned for
such instances, setting aside a few mem-
bers for transport to the jail for booking
if necessary so that the others can con-
tinue on. Back at the East Palo Alto
Police Department, the scent of the con-
scated drugs being processed by Ofcer
Brian Lee is overwhelming and unmis-
takable. The fate of the two suspects
less certain.
***
Several of the searches illustrate that
the strings of a domestic violence con-
viction bind not just the offender but
often also his or her family. The home
in which the person resides is subject to
search within the space a person can be
expected to occupy. Aparents bedroom
might be off limits if it is clear the
offender does not reside in the room but
others like a living room or kitchen is
fair game. The offender is the one con-
victed but everybody within the home
may pay the price.
In East Palo Alto, a check in one home
turns up no offender hes not home
yet but his grandmother is surprised
by the amount of ofcers streaming in.
Across the street, as night falls, neigh-
bors check to make sure everything is
OK. Shes a nice lady, they say. And pro-
bation quickly exits. The goal is not to
frighten the family.
***
Luis Garcia, 23, wasnt there when the
detail showed up at his parents home.
But as the team introduced themselves to
the couple and looked around the prem-
ises, the East Palo Alto man arrived on
the scene.
I was nervous, Garcia said of recog-
nizing his probation ofcer Matt
Nelson and seeing the crowd with him.
The last time I saw him I went to jail.
That last time, Garcia said, he missed
a court date which is why he was taken
into custody. This time, he didnt think
he had done wrong but the anxiety was
still there.
Garcia said he warned his parents early
on the ofcers were allowed to visit
whenever they wanted. That doesnt
mean its easier, he said.
Garcia was convicted of abusing his
girlfriend. Aside from that fact, Garcia
said they no longer have a relationship
because of the no-contact order that is
fairly standard in such cases.
Its kind of hard to be together when
we cant see each other, he said.
The ofcers ask Garcia how things are
going, hows his job? He has more than
one now, he said.
Nelson makes a nal check of Garcias
car and comes back with a trio of
Modelo cans shrink-wrapped together.
How old are you again? Nelson jok-
ingly asks.
See? Im a good boy and drinking at
home, Garcia cracks back.
***
Back at Youth Services Center which
served as the operations headquarters, a
northern team member shared a visit to
one Daly City address. The probationer
wasnt home but the home owner let the
ofcers into the unit. The space was
clean for anything illegal but, accord-
ing to ofcers, inside was the most
amazing bar setup ever. Lights, mir-
rors, every possible liquor. Despite
looking straight out of a nightclub,
there was no sign of questionable activ-
ity like a card room. It was searched
thoroughly, the ofcer joked.
Another location was less lucky, at
least for the occupant. That probationer
was rebooked into jail on a new crime
and the ofcers came back bearing mari-
juana, zigzag papers, wire cutters and
some apparatus in the form of a killer
whale. They theorized maybe a
vaporizer?
***
In total that night, 58 of the 67
offenders on the list were contacted.
Three arrests were made in Daly City,
San Mateo and East Palo Alto. Two
rearms and one rearm replica were
conscated as well as a few unplanned
items: three knives, alcohol, pipes, a
scale and marijuana.
The evening was a success, Collins
said. The majority of probationers were
actually compliant and every team mem-
ber came back safe.
Although the sweep targeted offenders
on a grand scale, Collins said enforce-
ment is what ofcers do every day.
Likewise, while last month was high-
lighted as Domestic Violence Awareness
Month, Collins said, for those charged
with keeping probation in check, the
focus is strong every day.
Domestic violence doesnt stop at
the end of October, she said. Well
still be doing this Nov. 1.

what you learn, it will end up being benecial.

home and take care of any renovations, decorations or
changes you want to make. Prepare for something that
you are looking forward to it will turn out well.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You should take
pride in what you do. Dont worry about the changes
going on around you. Concentrate on what makes you
happy, and strut your stuff.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) Listen carefully, but
dont bend to what someone else wants if it doesnt
suit you. Make changes based on past experience.
Dont lead anyone on; be upfront and keep moving.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) Avoid impulsive
moves based on emotional or personal incidents. Your
focus should be on reaching your goals and turning
whatever you do into a sweeping success.

emotional today. Dont feel pressured to react when
you should be reviewing and re-evaluating. Time is on

enthusiasm will bring good results. Turn a power
struggle into a positive situation that will allow

please everyone, but as long as you are true to your
word, you will command attention and respect. A
favorable change in a relationship will bring you
good fortune.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Look over your personal
nancial matters. Money may come from an
unexpected source. A quick change of plans will be

change, and emotional situations will develop
among your friends and co-workers. Dont make

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Robert J. Murphy
Case Number: 123876
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: Robert J. Murphy. A Pe-
tition for Probate has been filed by Moni-
ca Murphy in the Superior Court of Cali-
fornia, County of San Mateo. The Peti-
tion for Probate requests that Monica
Murphy be appointed as personal repre-
sentative to administer the estate of the
decedent.
The petition requests the decedents will
and codicils, if any, be admitted to pro-
bate. The will and any codicils are avail-
bale for examination in the file kept by
the court.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ster the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
203 Public Notices
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: December 4, 2013
at 9:00 a.m., Dept. 28, Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo, 400
County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063.
If you object to the granting of the peti-
tion, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hear-
ing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent cred-
itor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representa-
tive, as defined in section 58(b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal de-
livery to you of a notice under section
9052 of the California Probate Code.
Other California statutes and legal qutho-
ity may affect your rights as a creditor.
You may want to consult with an attorney
knowledgeable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.

Obama faces worry at home, abroad over Iran talks
WASHINGTON President Barack Obamas hopes for a
nuclear deal with Iran now depend in part on his ability to
keep a lid on both hard-liners on Capitol
Hill and anxious allies abroad, including
Israel, the Gulf states and even France.
Each of the wary parties is guided in
some measure by domestic political inter-
ests. But they also share concerns that
Obama may want a breakthrough with Iran
so badly that he would be willing to accept
a deal that prematurely eases economic
pressure on Iran and gives the Islamic
republic space to pursue a nuclear weapon.
All of us want to see diplomacy, Sen.
Bob Corker, R-Tenn., told NBC News. But were also con-
cerned about an administration that seems really ready to
jump into the arms of folks and potentially deal away some of
the leverage we have.
It would be imprudent to want an agreement more than the
Iranians do, Sen. Robert Menendez, D-N.J., wrote in an edi-
torial in USAToday.
Indeed, theres little question Obama desires a deal with
Iran, which could give him a boost during a shaky stretch in
his presidency that has included the deeply awed rollout of
his signature health care law, new revelations about U.S.
government spying and falling approval ratings.
Despite ruling, Egypt holds off on ending curfew
CAIRO Acourt declared that Egypts 3-month-old state
of emergency expired Tuesday, two days earlier than expect-
ed, but the military and security ofcials held off from imple-
menting the ruling and lifting a nighttime curfew, amid wor-
ries that the measures end will fuel protests by supporters of
ousted President Mohammed Morsi.
Morsi, meanwhile, held his rst extensive meeting with
lawyers in a prison near the Mediterranean city of Alexandria.
He had been held in secret military detention with almost no
contact with the outside world since he was ousted in a July 3
popularly backed coup, but he was moved to a regular prison
last week after the rst session of his trial on charges of incit-
ing murder.
The lawyers, who hail from the Muslim Brotherhood and its
allies, on Wednesday will relay a message from Morsi
addressing the Egyptian people and all parties, according
to Morsis son Osama, a lawyer who was among those who
met him.
