Harbor District picks new general manager

Several staff positions remain open after a large number of staff have left the rocky agency
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
After nearly a year of interim leadership

while weathering troubling times, the San
Mateo County Harbor District announced it
has found a new general manager and perhaps just in time as a large number of staff
have either resigned, retired or left under
questionable terms.
The Board of Commissioners reported

Wednesday it selected Steve McGrath, current manager of the Port San Luis Harbor
District, to step in and steer the local agency
toward a brighter future.
McGrath may take over as early as Oct. 19,
thereby ending the temporary leadership the
district has employed, which includes two
interim general managers, since 17-year
leader Peter Grenell retired in January.
On top of a long list of responsibilities and

ongoing projects, McGrath would be responsible for hiring or restructuring several key
positions recently vacated or about to be.
Many commissioners have said the boards
new members elected last November, along
with hiring a new general manager, would
help address a range of concerns raised during
recent scrutiny.
The special district has been in the hot seat
since a scathing civil grand jury report and the

Local Agency Formation Commission recommended it be dissolved and the county absorb
its duties which primarily includes owning
Pillar Point Harbor in Half Moon Bay and
managing Oyster Point Marina/Park in South
San Francisco.
Now, commissioners are hopeful several

Heat wave leads to early grape harvest

By Bill Silverfarb

San Mateo before 7:42 p.m. Sunday, Sept.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Its peak harvest week for the dozens of vineyards that run along the San Andreas Fault in
the Santa Cruz Mountains.
In fact, its the earliest harvest in at least 78
years, said David Page, the owner of La Honda
Winery in Redwood City.
The areas recent heat wave put this years
harvest at least two weeks ahead of last years,
which was the earliest harvest the region has
seen in decades, Page said.
La Honda Winery and Post & Trellis
Vineyards farm over 50 private estate vineyards
from Atherton in San Mateo County south to
Saratoga in Santa Clara County.
On Tuesday, winemaker Colin McNany led a
crew in prepping just-picked grapes for La
Hondas pinot noir, chardonnay and cabernet
varietals.
Page said the Santa Cruz Mountains has terroir that is the envy of the world.
I wouldnt want to be anywhere else, Page
said.
The Santa Cruz Mountains are underappreciated for the grapes they produce and are overshadowed by Sonoma and Napa counties, he
said.
But the climate, exposure and soils in this
area lead to the production of good fruit.
If youre not growing good fruit, youre not
making interesting wine, said Page, who
bought La Honda Winery in 2010.
Page, from England, grew up in the wine
business as his father managed wineries in
France.
A philosophy and economics graduate from
Oxford University, Page moved to the Bay Area
in 2001 in a quest to get to know California
wine.
What he has found in the Santa Cruz
Mountains is the perfect terrain for all different
types of fruit.
The eastern exposures and huge degree of different elevations make for some delicious varieties, he said.

chardonnay and pinot noir. In Atherton, grapes
grown there are used to make sauvignon blanc
and pinot noir. To the south in Los Altos Hills
and Saratoga, grapes grown there make for the
perfect cabernet sauvignon because of the
warmer temperatures, soil and elevations, Page
said.
La Honda starts with great grapes but it takes
a great winemaker to make it all work, Page
said.
La Hondas winemaker, McNany, is a graduate of University of California at Santa Cruz in
sustainable agriculture and viticultrue. McNany
was invited onto the judging panel for Wine &
Spirits Magazine in 2012 and spent time in New
Zealand working at Martinborough winery. He
has also traveled to Argentina and Chile on
wine expeditions.
La Honda uses state-of-the-art equipment with
Old World craftsmanship and makes only small
batches. The urban winery on Fair Oaks Avenue
also hosts about 200 corporate parties, charity
events, cooking parties and weddings a year.
This weekend, La Honda Winery is hosting a

wine and cheese harvest party starting at noon
that will feature artisan creamery cheeses from
Harley Farms and Redwood Hill Farms.
The winery itself on the inside features stone,
wood and wine barrels with just the right lighting to make for a unique, fun experience, Page
said.
La Honda Winery is generally closed to the
public but does host a monthly open day and
wine tasting, typically on the third Saturday of
the month. It also will host private tours and
tastings for groups of 10 or more.

Some say they werent warned about wildfires

By Janie Har
MIDDLETOWN High school math

teacher Bill Davis watched from his home as
smoke mounted from one of the most
destructive fires in California in recent memory.
From a previous fire in late July, he knew
to expect a recorded call on his cellphone or
look for someone coming through the neighborhood with a bullhorn yelling for people to
evacuate.
None of that happened, he said. His
house in Lake County burned after he finally
rounded up his cats and left.
Davis was among a number of survivors
who say they never got an official evacuation
notice Saturday about the blaze a situation
that raises questions about whether more
could have been done to notify residents.
Authorities defended their warnings and
rescue attempts, saying they did all they
could to reach people in the remote area of
homes, many prized for their privacy.
You may get that notice, or you may not,

depending on how fast that fire is moving. If
you can see the fire, you need to be going,
said Lynnette Round, a spokeswoman for the
California Department of Forestry and Fire
Protection, known as Cal Fire.
Round said two men in Calaveras County
66-year-old Mark McCloud and 82-yearold Owen Goldsmith died after rejecting
orders to evacuate.
Three people were killed in a separate fire
in Lake County. It wasnt clear if they
received evacuation notices. However, two
of them declined requests by friends and
family to leave.
The body of 72-year-old Barbara
McWilliams, who used a walker, was found
in her home in Anderson Springs. Her caregiver, Jennifer Hittson, said there were no
evacuation orders when she left McWilliams
home around 3 p.m. Saturday and no indication the fire was that serious.
She asked McWilliams if she wanted to
leave but the retired teacher declined, saying
the fire didnt seem bad.
California eases restrictions

on water for some farmers
SAN FRANCISCO The state on Friday

cleared some farmers, water agencies and others
to resume pumping from three Northern
California waterways, easing one of the toughest restrictions stemming from the states fouryear drought.
The limits, and the new order easing them,
were among the most stringent ever imposed on
so-called senior water-rights holders, who hold
some of the strongest claims to water from
California watersheds. State officials say it is
the first time they have lifted a 2015 restriction
on senior rights holders.
The order from the state Water Resources
Control Board allows a certain group of senior
water-rights holders those who claimed
stakes between 1903 and 1914 to resume
pumping from the Feather and Sacramento
rivers and from the delta of the Sacramento and
San Joaquin rivers, said Kathy Mrowka, the
boards manager for water

rights.
It applies to 238 water
rights, although some
farmers and others hold
more than one of the rights.
The state had told those
rights holders to stop taking from the waterways
Jerry Brown earlier this year. Reduced
water use by those still
allowed to pump from the watersheds allowed
California to ease the restrictions, Mrowka said.
California water law is based largely on
ensuring the rights of those with the oldest
claims, dating back more than a century. The
state has cut the water allotted to countless other
farmers, water agencies and others with newer
rights.
Gov. Jerry Brown this spring also ordered
cities and towns to cut their water use by 25 percent.

Man sentenced for string
of fraudulent iPad purchases
A Daly City man was sentenced to two
years, eight months in prison Thursday for
fraudulently purchasing
more than 167 iPads,
prosecutors said.
Jesus Binay Morales,
38, was convicted of
using financial information from more than 24
victims to buy iPads at
Verizon stores or kiosks
Jesus Morales in Burlingame, San
Bruno and South San
Francisco.
The 76 different transactions from July to
October 2011 resulted in an estimated loss
of more than $146,000, prosecutors said.
In the case that was brought before Judge
Leland Davis, Morales pleaded no contest to
felony counts of grand theft and identity
theft, and admitted the theft of more than
$65,000 on the condition that he serve two
years and eight months in prison.
He will serve the time after finishing a
federal prison sentence hes already serving.
Attorney Tom Greenberg was representing
Morales.
He was assigned to the defendant through
the San Mateo Countys private defender
program in May, after Morales former attorney was arrested.
The attorney, Deron Kartoon, was arrested
when a judge learned that his law license
was inactive and that he had a warrant out
for his arrest.
Kartoon, who promptly posted $15,000
bail, reportedly faced drug, identity theft
and other charges in San Mateo and Marin
counties.

Californias unemployment

Michelle Obama has said that she would fight to the bitter end to make sure kids have good
nutrition.
Another food fight? Congress

mulls school meal standards
By Mary Clare Jalonick
WASHINGTON Congress is deciding

whether it wants another pitched battle with
first lady Michelle Obama and the administration over school lunches that put more
whole grains in kids meals and cut salty
foods.
Last year, school food rules pitted Mrs.
Obama against Republicans seeking full
exemptions for some schools. The first lady
declared that she would fight to the bitter
end to make sure kids have good nutrition.
Lawmakers are now hoping to find bipartisan compromise on the rules and also dollars
for the nations child nutrition programs
before the law expires Sept. 30. So far, however, negotiations have failed to produce a bill
in either the House or the Senate.
Lawmakers may not seek an immediate
extension if the law expires. The school foods
rules wont change unless Congress takes
action, and the Agriculture Department says
other programs would continue to operate as
long as Congress passes a budget this fall.
The rules phased in since 2012 set fat, calorie, sugar, grain and sodium limits on foods in
the lunch line and beyond. Schools have long
been required to follow government nutrition
rules if they accept federal reimbursements for
free and reduced-price meals for low-income
students, but the new standards are stricter.
While many schools have had success putting the rules in place, many Republicans say
the standards have posed too many challenges
for school nutrition officials who must bal-
ance serving healthy foods with keeping participation up in their programs.

The School Nutrition Association, a group
of school nutrition directors, has pushed
Congress to ease the whole grain and sodium
standards and eliminate the stipulation that all
children buying a full lunch take a fruit or vegetable. They are also seeking a higher federal
reimbursement rate.
Democrats, including Mrs. Obama, would
like to leave the standards alone and argue that
they are working.
Beyond school lunch, child nutrition programs expiring at the end of the month include
the Agriculture Departments Women, Infants
and Children program for new and expecting
mothers and their children, summer feeding
programs and other government institutional
food aid.
Sen. Pat Roberts, R-Kan., chairman of the
Senate Agriculture Committee, is negotiating
with the panels top Democrat, Debbie
Stabenow of Michigan, to get a bipartisan bill.
He said this week that changes to the sodium
standards are a priority.
The 2012 standards already lowered salt
levels in school meals, with even lower sodium levels set to start in two years. Some
schools have said they will have to take many
popular items off their menus if the 2017 levels go into effect.
Jessica Shelly, food service director at
Cincinnatis urban public schools, says the
new standards would mean she couldnt serve
soy sauce or hot sauce with some items,
condiments that have helped her get kids to
eat healthier foods like greens.
SACRAMENTO Californias unemployment rate dropped to 6.1 percent in August,

down slightly from 6.2 percent in July, the
state Employment Development Department
reported Friday.
The state added 36,300 nonfarm jobs last
month but the increase wasnt as strong as the
80,400 jobs added in July.
Californias jobless rate remains above the
national average of 5.1 percent in August.
The state employment agency reported
there are roughly 17.9 million Californians
holding jobs while another 1.2 million are
unemployed. The numbers are based on federal and state surveys of employers and households, but dont take into account people who
have stopped looking for work.
Seven of 11 employment classifications saw
job gains, including construction, transportation, financial activities, educational and

health services, leisure and hospitality and
government.
The four areas that reported job losses
include mining and logging, manufacturing,
professional and business services and one
category labeled other services.
The state has added more than 2 million
jobs since Californias recovery began in
February 2010, according to EDD.
State unemployment is now the lowest its
been since January 2008. A year ago,
Californias jobless rate was 7.4 percent.
The number of people receiving unemployment benefits dropped as well. EDD reported
367,255 people receiving unemployment
checks in August, compared to 377,940 in
July.
U.S. appeals immigration

family detention decision
LOS ANGELES Federal officials on

Friday appealed a court order to quickly
release immigrant children from family detention centers.
Homeland Security Secretary Jeh C.
Johnson said in a statement that officials were
taking steps to comply with the order by U.S.
District Judge Dolly M. Gee but disagreed
with portions of her decision. He did not specify which portions.
In recent months, the government has been
converting family detention centers into processing centers for interviews and screenings,
Johnson said.
The detention of families is becoming
short-term in most cases, he said.
Last month, Gee ruled that the federal gov-
ernment was in breach of a longstanding legal

agreement stipulating that immigrant children
cannot be held in secured facilities that arent
licensed to care for children.
She gave authorities until Oct. 23 to comply
with her order to release them, with their
mothers when possible.
Federal court records show the government
filed the notice of appeal on Friday.
Peter Schey, an attorney for the plaintiffs,
said he expected the government would argue
the children are not covered by the 1997
agreement because they arrived on the U.S.Mexico border with their mothers and not
entirely alone.
Were disappointed that Secretary Johnson
is persisting in pursuing a mindless policy that
causes extreme harm to innocent children, he
said.

House OKs GOP bill

blocking Planned
Parenthood funds
By Alan Fram and Andrew Taylor
WASHINGTON Seeking to avert a government shutdown, Republican leaders drove

a bill blocking Planned Parenthoods federal
funds through the House on Friday, hoping to
contain conservatives demands for a politically risky showdown with President Barack
Obama by striking a quick blow against abortion.
The nearly party-line 241-187 vote followed a no-holds-barred debate that included
a graphic, poster-sized photo of a scarred,
aborted fetus and underscored how abortion
has resurfaced as a white-hot political issue.
The battle has been rejoined just in time for
the 2016 election campaign and next weeks
historic address to Congress by Pope Francis.
The issues re-emergence followed the
release of secretly recorded videos of Planned
Parenthood officials offhandedly discussing
how they sometimes procure tissue from

aborted fetuses for medical research. The
anti-abortion activists who made the videos
say they show that Planned Parenthood is illegally profiting from fetal organ sales.
What does it say about this Congress that
today were here on the House floor debating
the killing and harvesting of aborted babies?
said Rep. Marlin Stutzman, R-Ind. How can
there possibly be two sides to this?
Democrats said the true GOP goal was to
whip up conservative voters with legislation
that would make it harder for women to get
health care. Planned Parenthood, whose clinics provide sexual disease tests, contraception
and abortion, says its done nothing illegal
and is being victimized by misleadingly edited videos.
Republicans are willing to risk womens
lives just to score political points, said
Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla.,
who chairs the Democratic National

Committee. Enough is enough.
Planned Parenthood gets around $450 million yearly in federal payments, mostly
Medicaid reimbursements for handling lowincome patients. Thats around one-third of
the organizations $1.3 billion annual budget.
Practically none of the federal money can be
used for abortions.
Beyond Fridays bill, some conservatives

want to attach language halting Planned
Parenthoods payments to broader legislation
financing government agencies, which otherwise run out of money next Thursday. Those
Republicans say a shutdown fight would at
least produce a veto battle that would show
voters where Republicans stand.
Obama, Raul Castro speak ahead of popes visit to U.S., Cuba

By Julie Pace
WASHINGTON President Barack Obama

and Cuban President Raul Castro had a rare
phone call Friday ahead of Pope Francis
impending visit to both their nations.
The White House said Obama and Castro
commended the popes role in advancing relations between our countries. Francis was
instrumental in the secret talks that led to a thaw
in relations between the Cold War foes, even
offering the Vatican as a

neutral location for negotiations.
Francis visit to the U.S.
and Cuba comes as the two
countries painstakingly
work to normalize relations after a half-century
diplomatic freeze. Earlier
Barack Obama Friday, the U.S. eased
rules for citizens wishing
to travel to Cuba or do business with its grow-
ing ranks of independent

entrepreneurs, a step aimed
at kindling greater economic freedom on the island.
The Treasury and
Commerce departments
said the regulations that
take effect Monday simplify procedures for
tourism, telephone and
Raul Castro
Internet investments, and
money transfers to Cuba.
Even as the U.S. and

Cuba move forward on
easing tensions, deep differences remain. Cuba
wants the U.S. to fully lift
its economic embargo on
the communist island, a
step the Republican-controlled Congress opposes.
Pope Francis The U.S. also has concerns
about Cubas human rights
record and detainment of political prisoners.

Investigator: Bergdahl
left post to expose problems in unit
SAN ANTONIO The officer who led the investigation of
Bowe Bergdahls disappearance and capture in Afghanistan
six years ago testified Friday that the Army
sergeant said he walked away from his post
as part of a plan to spark a search and get
the attention of a general so he could
express his concerns about his units leadership.
Maj. Gen. Kenneth Dahl told a packed
courtroom at Fort Sam Houston in San
Antonio that Bergdahl felt the problems
Bowe Bergdahl were so severe that they put his platoon in
danger, but that Bergdahls perceptions
were completely off the mark.
Dahl said Bergdahl had an elaborate plan to head from his
post to the forward operating base roughly 19 miles away,
expecting to arrive while a search was underway and to create
a PR event that might get a general to listen to him.
He felt it was his duty to intervene, said Dahl, who
described Bergdahl as having few friends but who seemed
motivated to help others. He said he doesnt think Bergdahl
should go to prison.
Marines seek to keep

combat jobs closed to women
WASHINGTON The commandant of the Marine Corps
has recommended that women be excluded from competing
for certain front-line combat jobs, U.S. officials said Friday,
as the Corps distanced itself from the other military services
that are expected to allow women to serve in battlefield
posts.
Officials said Marine Gen. Joseph Dunford submitted his
recommendation to Navy Secretary Ray Mabus on Thursday.
Mabus has made it clear he opposes the proposal from and recommended that women be allowed to compete for any Navy
or Marine Corps combat jobs.
The developments have raised questions about whether
Mabus can veto the Marine Corps proposal to prohibit women
from serving in certain infantry and reconnaissance positions.
And it puts Dunford, who takes over next week as chairman of
the Joint Chiefs of Staff, in the position of defending an exclusion in his own service that the Army, Navy, Air Force and
U.S. Special Operations Command have suggested isnt warranted in theirs.
Russian, U.S. military talks: Concerned over Syria

WASHINGTON American and Russian military chiefs
began talks Friday over Moscows buildup in Syria, signaling
the U.S. is resigned to Russias emerging plans but anxious to
avoid dangerous misunderstandings on the battlefield.
A 50-minute phone call between U.S. Defense Secretary
Ash Carter and Russia Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu
marked the first military-to-military conversation between the
two countries in more than a year. And it came as Russia continued to send aircraft, troops and military equipment into
Syria and the U.S.-led coalition kept up its assault against
Islamic State militants.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov broached the idea
of direct talks earlier this week in a phone call with U.S.
Secretary of State John Kerry, and Shoigu initiated the call to
Carter on Friday.

NEW YORK Fears over slowing

global growth hammered stocks in the
U.S. and Europe on Friday and lifted
prices of government bonds and other
assets seen as safer bets.
The selling pushed down major stock
indexes in Germany, France and Britain
before spreading to the U.S. The
Standard and Poors 500 index slumped
to its biggest loss in more than two
weeks as all 10 industry sectors of the
broad market gauge fell. Energy companies dropped the most as oil plunged.
The stock sell-off came a day after the
Federal Reserve decided to hold interest
rates near zero. That means borrowing
costs will remain low for a while yet, a
prospect that has in the past typically
boosted stocks. But some investors,
expecting the Fed would be confident
enough to nudge rates up by at least a
quarter of a point, interpreted the stance
as a sign that the global economy is dangerously weak.
If growth in the strongest economy
the United States isnt strong
enough to raise rates even a quarter of a
point, what does that say about the
prospects for global growth? said Bill
Strazzullo, chief strategist at market
research firm Bell Curve Trading.
The Fed has kept its benchmark rate
close to zero for almost seven years. In

that time, U.S. stocks have nearly
tripled from their financial crisis low.
The Fed meets again next month and in
December.
The Dow Jones industrial average
ended down 290.16 points, or 1.7 percent, to 16,384.58. The S&P 500
slumped 32.17 points, or 1.6 percent, to
1,958.03 and the Nasdaq composite
shed 66.72 points, or 1.4 percent, to
4,827.23.
Bonds rallied as investors sought
safety. The benchmark 10-year Treasury
note gained, pushing down its yield to
2.13 percent. Gold also gained.
A gauge of investor fear, the VIX
index, shot up 7 percent to 23. In early
July, this measure of expected swings in
stock prices was 12.
In its rate decision Thursday, the Fed
cited low inflation, weakness in the
global economy and unsettled financial
markets. Investors have been on edge
about a slowdown in China and other
emerging market nations since last
month. The S&P 500 index is down
about 8 percent from its record close of
2,130.82 set in May.
UBS strategist Julian Emanuel said a
mix of other factors may have also fed
the selling Friday.
Investors are worried about thirdquarter corporate earnings, which are
forecast to drop 4 percent for companies
in the S&P 500. Also, several dozen

House Republicans have said they
wont vote for a funding bill that
includes
money
for
Planned
Parenthood, raising the specter of a government shutdown next month.
When you add up the Fed, China, the
cloudy earnings outlook and, and possibly of government shutdown, its not a
surprise that the market has had a defensive reaction, Emanuel said.
In Europe, Germanys DAX fell 3.1
percent while the CAC-40 in France
dropped 2.6 percent. Britains FTSE
100 ended the day 1.3 percent lower.
Among U.S. stocks making big
moves, JPMorgan Chase fell $1.71, or
2.7 percent, to $60.94 as investors
judged that lower interest rates for
longer mean banks wont be able charge
more for loans. Citigroup slumped
$1.36, or 2.6 percent, $50.29.
La Quinta plunged $2.92, or 15 percent, to $16.05 after the hotel company
announced late Thursday that its CEO
Wayne Goldberg had stepped down
after almost a decade in charge. The
company also lowered its 2015 sales
forecast due to weak demand in August
and September.
In metals trading, the price of gold
rose $20.80 to $1,137 an ounce. Silver
climbed 17.9 cents to $15.16 an ounce
and Copper fell 6.6 cents to $2.39 per
pound.
What the Federal Reserve wants to see before raising rates

By Josh Boak
WASHINGTON So what will it take for

the Federal Reserve to finally raise interest
rates?
The U.S. economy is now in its seventh
straight year of expansion. Its growing at a
steady if unexciting 2.2 percent annual rate.
Unemployment has sunk from a 10 percent
peak to a reassuring 5.1 percent. Auto and
home sales have accelerated.
Yet on Thursday, Fed officials declined to
lift rates from record lows.
The decision left some Fed watchers mystified over what the central bank needs to
see to begin phasing out a policy it
launched in 2008 to help save a collapsing
economy. Many consumers and businesses
wouldnt even likely feel the consequences
of a single rate hike, at least not immediately. And Yellen has stressed that the Feds
rate increases would be modest and gradual.

At a news conference, Yellen declined to
spell out what exactly would give the Fed
enough confidence to raise the federal funds
rate the interest that banks charge each
other from near-zero.
I cant give you a recipe for exactly what
were looking to see, she said.
What she does see now are too many lingering risks.
Inflation is still undershooting the 2 percent
target that the Fed regards as consistent with
stable growth. Financial markets have turned
stormy as doubts have spread about whether
Chinese officials can sustain decent growth in
the worlds second-largest economy.
Emerging markets from Brazil to Malaysia
are struggling. Europe is straining to avoid
stagnation. And falling oil prices have pulled
Canada the largest U.S. trading partner
into recession.
The doubts remain so severe that the Fed
appears to consider even a mild rate hike
one that many economists say will barely

affect most Americans a step too far.
Yellen signaled some concern Thursday
about Chinas slowdown and volatile financial markets. But many economists say the
Fed is paying particular attention to three key
gauges in weighing whether to raise rates.
They say the Fed needs to see:
decline has suppressed inflation. The Fed

forecasts that its preferred inflation measure
will be just 0.4 percent this year a fraction
of its 2 percent objective. Fed officials may be
reluctant to act until they believe that oil
prices have bottomed.
A STABLE DOLLAR
Over the past year, employers have added

2.9 million jobs, and the unemployment rate
has dropped a full percentage point to 5.1 percent. The Fed considers that level consistent
with a balanced economy. But the hiring
has yet to spur faster wage growth a trend
that would improve peoples well-being and,
Yellen stressed, help inflation reach the Feds
objective.
The Fed doesnt want to assume that all
three of these economic measures will naturally improve. So on Thursday, it said essentially that it needs more time before finalizing
a decision.
The dollar has risen 14.8 percent against a

basket of currencies in the past year. This has
hurt U.S. manufacturers by causing their
American-made goods to become more
expensive abroad. It also reduces inflationary
pressures because foreign-made goods
become cheaper. A stronger dollar can put
inflation further below the Feds target rate.

Farmworkers union claims victory in labor battle

By Scott Smith
FRESNO Organized labor claimed a victory in a decades-long fight with one of the
nations largest fruit growers when a judge
ruled that the company interfered with its
employees vote on whether to reject union
representation.
A decision issued late Thursday sets aside
an election held nearly two years ago by
workers at Gerawan Farming Inc., which
hires thousands of people annually to harvest nectarines, peaches and grapes in
Californias Central Valley. It says Gerawan
used unfair labor practices in its support of a
key worker who organized the campaign
against the United Farm Workers.

The farmworkers votes remain locked up
and uncounted amid the dispute.
The decision says a Gerawan employee,
Silvia Lopez, unlawfully asked for and
received $20,000 from a fruit growers association affiliated with Gerawan to fund the antiunion fight. It says that on one day, Lopez
physically blocked workers from the farm to
collect roughly 1,000 signatures calling for a
vote to reject the UFW, and Gerawan unfairly
granted Lopez time off work to lead the effort.
Gerawan also made a well-timed wage
increase to win the favor of workers,
Administrative Law Judge Mark Soble said,
citing evidence he considered to dismiss the
petition that sought the vote.
The misconduct created an environment

which would have made it impossible for true
employee free choice when it came time to
vote, Sobles ruling concludes.
Dan Gerawan, who runs the family business
in Fresno County, said in a statement that his
workers are being denied their democratic
rights by leaving the ballots uncounted.
Labor relations in agriculture are often
highly contentious, said Philip Martin, professor emeritus of agricultural and resource economics at University of California, Davis, and
the feud between the UFW and Gerawan
Farming started more than two decades ago.
Clearly, this illustrates the difficulty of
negotiating agreements in agriculture,
Martin said.
U.S. airlines step up campaign against rivals from Middle East

By Scott Mayerowitz and David Koenig
The CEOs of American Airlines and Delta

Air Lines met with Secretary of State John
Kerry as they stepped up their fight against
what they say is unfair competition from the
three biggest Middle East airlines.
It remains unclear, however, whether the
Obama administration will accept the CEOs

argument that the Middle East carriers are
heavily subsidized by their governments. The
U.S. airlines first lodged their complaints
early this year.
American Airlines CEO Doug Parker
and Delta CEO Richard Anderson met
with Kerry in Washington on Thursday.
The State Department said Kerry indicated that the administration is still review-
ing the CEOs complaints.

Kerry is meeting the foreign minister of the
United Arab Emirates, one of the governments accused of unfairly subsidizing Gulf
airlines, this weekend in London. State
Department spokesman John Kirby said he
didnt know whether Kerry would raise the
airline issue. Kerry and the foreign minister
are close friends who sometimes meet socially.

Business brief
EPA says VW intentionally
violates clean air standards
WASHINGTON The Environmental
Protection Agency on Friday ordered
Volkswagen to fix nearly 500,000 VW and
Audi diesel cars that the agency said are intentionally violating clean air laws by using software that evades EPA emissions standards.
VW, which owns Audi, faces billions of
dollars in fines, although exact amounts were
not determined.
The cars, all built in the last seven years,
include a device programmed to detect when
they are undergoing official emissions testing,
the EPA said, adding that the cars only turn on
full emissions control systems during that
testing. The controls are turned off during normal driving situations, the EPA said.
The EPA called the companys use of the
device illegal and a threat to public health.
The EPA called on VW to fix the cars emissions systems, but said car owners do not need
to take any immediate action. The violations
do not present a safety hazard and the cars
remain legal to drive and sell, the EPA said.
The German automaker said in a statement
it is cooperating with the investigation, but
declined further comment.
The EPA said VW faces fines of up to
$37,500 per vehicle for the violations a
total of more than $18 billion.

The Redwood City Rumble is an early

contender for game of the year.
Actually, we have a winner.
Woodside (3-0) pulled off a major upset
with a 33-32 overtime win over rival
Sequoia (1-2). While the Wildcats wildly
celebrated their second consecutive win in
the annual matchup, they almost let it slip
away.
Im all banged up, Woodside head coach
Justin Andrews said. I feel like I played the
whole game.
The rst half saw a dominant Woodside
performance. The Wildcats took a 26-0 lead
into halftime. But Sequoia responded with a
26-point comeback in the second half. But
with a dominant rushing performance by
Sequoia the Cherokees outgained the
Wildcats 320-140 on the ground the
game came down to special teams.
Sequoia missed two consecutive extrapoint attempts after each of its rst two
touchdowns. Then, after a miraculous comeback that saw senior fullback Faavae Brown
take a 6-yard touchdown reception to the
house to tie it 26-26 with 40 second remaining in regulation, the Cherokees made the
unorthodox decision to attempt a two-point
conversion.
Woodside stopped that conversion
attempt cold an off-tackle attempt to
Brown that was met by Woodside middle
linebacker Sione Halaapiapi to all but force
overtime.
Thats ballgame, Sequoia head coach
Rob Poulos said. Take your pick. Thats 3
to 6 points off the board. You cant have
that.
Overtime proved a microcosm of the
entirety of regulation. With overtime rules
dictating each team starts from the oppositions 10-yard line and trading possessions
until there is a winner, Woodside was awarded the rst possession.

Following a pair of easy wins to start the season, the San Mateo football team took a big
step up in competition when it hosted Mountain
View in the Bearcats home opener Friday night.
And while the Spartans came away with a 2714 victory, San Mateo coach Jeff Scheller was
satisfied with the way his team rallied in the second half. Down 20-0 at halftime, San Mateo
scored twice to cut the Mountain View lead to 2014 with just over five minutes to play.
The Spartans, who had been stymied by the
Bearcats defense the entire second half, finally
found a rhthym. They drove 80 yards for the
game-clinching score with just over a minute to
play.
Were preparing for the Lake (Division),
Scheller said. Were trying to win the division.
A team like Mountain View is a big test for
us.
San Mateo (2-1 overall) failed the first-half
test miserably. The Bearcats could not get anything going offensively in the first two quarter
as they finished with just 36 yards of offense and
just two first downs. The defense wasnt much
better as Mountain View (2-1) scored on three of
its five first-half possessions.
Not even the Bearcats special teams could
make anything good happen as that unit had
punts of 18 and 14 yards.
We just couldnt find a rhythm, Scheller
said. Our special teams didnt help and our
offense didnt help our defense with three-andouts.
In the second half, it appeared the teams
changed uniforms. Suddenly, it was San Mateo
that couldnt be stopped, while Mountain View
struggled to put anything together offensively.
Theyre a big, physical team. They took it to
us (in the first half), Scheller said. We (the San
Mateo coaching staff) took it to them (the team)
at half.
We were proud of the way we played in the
second half.
San Mateo amassed 145 yards of offense over
the final two quarters, with quarterback Austin
Salvail throwing for 87 yards and a touchdown.

Confusion surrounds Mills-Galileo schedule

By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Peninsula Athletic League teams have not

been kind to Galileo-SF this season.
First came opening week when visiting
Jefferson marched to a 38-0 victory. But at least
Galileo actually got to play that game.
Still looking for its rst win, Galileo showed
up at Mills Friday for a scheduled 3:15 p.m. varsity kickoff. Only, Mills wasnt there. The
Vikings were anticipating a Saturday game. The
two teams rescheduled for Saturday, with the

varsity game slated for a 2 p.m. kickoff.
The miscommunication between Galileo head
coach Mark Huynh and Mills head coach Mike
Krieger originated from an exchange of text
messages earlier this year, when the teams were
organizing their respective non-league schedules.
Huynh has the text on his phone from Krieger
that says: I would like to host Galileo varsity
on Friday at 3:15 p.m. Huynh responded with
a conrmation text.
Somehow we were not on the same page,

Krieger said. Were the host school. Its probably on me.
Ironically, Huynh said he initially wanted to
play the game on Saturday due to a frosh-soph
scheduling conict. Krieger originally requested to play the varsity game on Friday afternoon,
with the frosh-soph game preceding it Thursday
afternoon. However, Galileos frosh-soph team
had scheduled a Saturday game for Week 2 on
Sept. 12 against De Anza-El Sobrante, which
did not allow for the requisite ve days off
between games, according to Huynh.

As it turns out, Galileos frosh-soph team didnt play Sept. 12, as De Anza frosh-soph ultimately forfeited the game. Galileos varsity
team lost to De Anza 43-0.
Its just one of those seasons, Huynh said.
We havent scored yet either.
There were differing schedules posted on local
prep websites. Maxpreps.com had the game
listed Friday at 3:15 p.m. Calpreps.com had the

Players: Coach told them to hit referee

DALLAS A Texas high school football

coach directed two players to strike a referee during a game because of missed calls that had hurt
the team, the players claimed Friday during a
national broadcast.
During an appearance on ABCs Good
Morning, America, Michael Moreno and
Victor Rojas also repeated earlier claims that the
ref had used racial slurs.
Moreno said he regrets hitting Robert Watts
and wants to apologize. Rojas said he was just
doing what he was told.
The two were suspended from the Jay High
School football team in San Antonio in the

aftermath of the game early this month at
Marble Falls. The Northside school district
moved them to an alternative school as investigations into the matter continue.
Video from the Sept. 4 game shows Rojas
blindsiding Watts and Moreno diving on top of
him. Watts was the umpire on the defensive side
watching a play along the line of scrimmage.
The players didnt name the coach Friday. The
school district has suspended assistant coach
Mack Breed pending an investigation.
Attempts to find a phone number to contact
Breed for comment were unsuccessful.
Rojas alleged that Watts at one point told a

Four arrests in Levis parking lot beating
SANTA CLARA The Santa Clara Police department
says four people have been arrested on suspicion of felony

Stadium following the San Francisco 49ers 20-3 victory
over Minneosta on Monday night. One was a season ticketholder.
Police said Friday the arrests were made late Thursday.
When police arrived to the scene after the game all parties
involved had left. But a video of the assault surfaced Tuesday
morning on social media and helped lead to the arrests of

America. The soft-spoken Rojas said he couldnt explain why he targeted Watts, only saying
he was following instructions.
Moreno contends the ref used a racial slur
directed at a black player. The teenager also said
at the last moment he realized the gravity of
what he was about to do and softened his blow
on Watts.
Thats not who I am, he said. Underneath
the helmet and the pads, Im really a great kid.
Watts has denied using inappropriate language.
His attorney, New Jersey lawyer Alan
Goldberger, told the Associated Press on Friday
that the game video shows a crime was committed against Watts and now the perpetrators are
blaming the victim for their actions.
He didnt say hurtful things to anybody and
he certainly didnt say racial epithets,
Goldberger said, adding that civil action is
being considered.
Watts has officiated hundreds of football
games over 14 years, but has stepped aside
because hes now under a doctors care for
injuries inflicted by the players, Goldberger
said.
Its so typical that these accusations are
made, he said. Its always the referees fault.
Oakland beats fading Astros

Josh Reddick and Valencia hit back-to-back homers to start

the fourth and cut the lead to 3-2.
Drew Pomeranz (5-5) struck out two in a perfect seventh for
the win and Ryan Dull pitched a scoreless ninth for his first
career save.
Felix Doubront went six innings for Oakland, yielding five
hits and three runs with four strikeouts.
The Astros couldnt do anything after building the early lead.
Jake Marisnick singled with two outs in the fourth before
Oakland retired the next 15 batters. Colby Rasmus walked with
two outs in the ninth, but pinch-hitter Preston Tucker struck
out to end the game.
An RBI single by Lowrie gave Houston a 1-0 lead in the first.
Carters 19th homer and Houstons 200th this season
came in the second inning to make it 2-0.
HOUSTON Danny Valencia homered twice, including a

go-ahead two-run shot in the eighth inning, to help the
Oakland Athletics to a 4-3 victory Friday night that sent the
scuffling Houston Astros to their fifth straight loss.
The recent skid has allowed the first-place Texas Rangers to
move 2 1-2 games ahead of the Astros in the AL West.
Oakland trailed by a run with one out and one on in the eighth
when Valencia launched a pitch from Pat Neshek (3-6) into the
seats in left field to make it 4-3. Valencia had a solo shot in the
fourth inning, his second career multihomer game and the first
since 2010.
The Astros had a 3-0 lead after three innings thanks to two
RBIs from Jed Lowrie and a home run by Chris Carter.
Diamondbacks shut out Giants

SAN FRANCISCO Rubby De La Rosa pitched into the

sixth inning to outduel Madison Bumgarner, and the Arizona
Diamondbacks beat the San Francisco Giants 2-0 on Friday
night.
A.J. Pollock had two hits and made a stellar defensive play
in the eighth to help preserve the Diamondbacks 10th
shutout of the season. Paul Goldschmidt also had two hits and
scored a run as Arizona got its fifth consecutive win at AT&T
Park.
De La Rosa (13-8) allowed only one hit over 5 2/3 innings
to beat the Giants for the third time this season. He walked
four and struck out five before leaving with the bases loaded in
the sixth.
Bumgarner (18-8) gave up only one earned run in eight
innings but was denied in his bid to join Jake Arrieta of the
Chicago Cubs as baseballs only 19-game winners this season.
The Giants dropped 8 1/2 games behind the Dodgers in the
NL West with 15 to play. Los Angeles magic number to win
the division is now eight.

De La Rosa faced only two over the minimum through five
innings before loading the bases with two outs in the sixth.
Reliever Andrew Chafin retired Brandon Belt on a grounder to
end the threat.
Brad Ziegler pitched the ninth for his 27th save.
The win preserved the Diamondbacks slim playoff hopes,
although they would have to go 15-0 the rest of the way while
hoping the Dodgers lose all of their remaining games.
Arizona was eliminated from the wild-card contention earlier
in the day when the Chicago Cubs beat St. Louis.
Bumgarner beat the Diamondbacks twice this season and
pitched in and out of two jams early before running into trouble in the sixth.
Pollock, who led off the game with a single, opened the
inning with his second hit off Bumgarner. One batter later,
Goldschmidt lined a double down the left-field line. The ball
rolled and glanced off the glove of Alejandro De Aza for an
error, allowing Pollock to easily score from first.
Welington Castillo followed with an unusual 6-2-3 RBI
groundout to make it 2-0.

11 carries took a 10-yard sweep around
end for a score. Then place kicker Alex
Roque nailed the point after, which proved
to be the game-winner.
Sequoia was able to nd the end zone on
two plays, with quarterback Nick DeMarco
taking a play-action bootleg 8 yards for the
score. But then Sequoia opted to go for all
the marbles with a two-point conversion
attempt. DeMarco attempted a short pass
but got pressured by Wildcats defensive end
Xavier Cruz. DeMarco rushed his pass, and
Halaapiapi snagged it to end the game.
I just saw the quarterback sneak out,
Halaapiapi said. Xavier came in and sacked
him. I was just able to come in and make the
play.
The rst half was all Wildcats from the
opening kickoff. Woodside senior Adam
Swan opened the game with a 91-yard return
for a quick-strike touchdown. Swan was virtually untouched after taking the kickoff
reception between the hash marks before
darting around the left sideline with impressive speed for a 6-2 big-man.
Woodside took some time to establish its
offense, taking a quick three-and-out on its
rst possession near the end of the rst
quarter. But the Wildcats defense was up to
the task, stopping the Sequoia offense once
with an interception by Chester-Riley.
Then after the three-and-out, Chester-Riley
turned in another INT, this time for a pick-6
with an 87-yard scoring return, staking
Woodside to a 14-0 lead.
We were waiting for a game like this
from that kid because hes had it in him

since he stepped onto the eld as a ninth
grader, Andrews said.
After a Sequoia three-and-out, Woodside
looked poised to score again. The Wildcats
drove to the Sequoia 6-yard line, but fumbled it away with Sequoias Blake
Carbonneau producing the recovery.
Sequoia then marched down eld and forced
rst-and-goal from the 7-yard line.
But Woodsides defense produced a pivotal
defensive stand, capped by consecutive
stops from the 1-yard line. Wildcats outside
linebacker Guillermo Adame had the big hit
on fourth down, being the rst defender to
the spot in a swarm of Woodside bodies to
stop the 6-2, 270-pound Brown for no gain.
We felt really excited, Adame said. We
stopped the run. We stopped the charge.
We keyed on their big guy and manned up
and were able to stop it.
The Woodside offense reciprocated with a
quick three-play, 99-yard drive. ChesterRiley set up the score on the rst carry, taking a shotgun trap off tackle for a 79-yard
gainer up the left sideline. Two plays later,
Haliaapiapi pounded in a 4-yard score to
give the Wildcats a 20-0 lead.
The Wildcats struck once more just before
halftime. Taking over with 2:31 remaining
in the half, quarterback Scudder Stockwell
who was 11-of-14 passing for 177 yards
bided his time after several negative-gain
plays to hit senior receiver Spencer Gawle
for a 46-yard strike to advance to the
Sequoia 15-yard line. Stockwell then found
Chester-Riley for a 15-yard touchdown
pass, giving the Wildcats a 26-0 lead going
into the half.
The second half was a different story.
Poulos said he preaches the setback-comeback approach. But this is generally a
short-term strategy. Instead, the Cherokees
applied it for a stunner of a 26-point

49ers defense vows to stay dominant

By Janie McCauley
SANTA CLARA Linebacker Michael

Wilhoite calls him Mangenius.
That nickname for Niners defensive coordinator Eric Mangini might just catch on if
San Francisco can replicate its defensive
shutdown of Minnesota this weekend
against a tougher test: on the road at
Pittsburgh in a short week.
With all the tools that we installed in
OTAs and fall camp, we just showed a small
package of what we can do, Wilhoite said.
Theres a lot of stuff Mangenius has, and a
lot of tricks up his sleeve.
Wilhoite is unconcerned with who is no
longer on San Franciscos menacing
defense long known as one of the NFLs
toughest. He insists the mentality will stay
the same regardless of personnel and major
alterations.
Mangini appreciates the compliments,
but knows how fast

things can change in this
league.
Well, I hope he was
using in a complimentary
way, not ironically,
Mangini said Friday.
You have a good week,
you get positive things,
Eric Mangini and if you dont, then
that name changes. Ive
heard other variations of my last name.
They werent as friendly and as positive.
The 49ers chased down Teddy Bridgewater
for five sacks in their Monday night win
even without Patrick Willis, Chris Borland,
Justin Smith and Aldon Smith.
Thats been the mentality and identity
weve had here for a long time, when I got
here with (Jim) Harbaugh, and that was kind
of set with Justin and Pat and those guys
that have left us, Wilhoite said. But I
think we kept it here. Wed like to think that
were one of the best teams at playing that
style of football and thats lining up man to

man and just playing physical and hitting
people. We showed we can play that kind of
football.
Vikings coach Mike Zimmer credited San
Francisco for being far more physical in the
20-3 victory, and that meant a lot to firstyear coach Jim Tomsula who actually
interviewed with Minnesota when it hired
Zimmer last year.
Tomsula was promoted from defensive
line coach to replace Harbaugh.
I speak for the guys, thats a compliment
to them. In terms of an identity, I just want
us to be who we are, and our locker room is,
what I believe, a tough-minded, physically
tough and mentally tough group of guys,
Tomsula said. Its a test of wills.
For the 49ers, that test of wills began
months ago when Willis retired, then
Borland after his standout rookie year, followed by veteran Justin Smith. Aldon Smith
was released Aug. 7 following another legal
run-in and signed last week with the
Oakland Raiders.
Manginis scheme was a lot to master,
too.
He gives us a ton of information and it
was difficult at first, Wilhoite said. Were
professional athletes. If you challenge us
were going to try to rise to it. Thats why
were here and thats why were in the position being 1-0 and playing really well on
defense, because we embraced the challenge
that he placed in front of us in learning so
much information. We attacked it head-on.
Now, NaVorro Bowman is back after he
missed all of last season recovering from
left knee surgery from an injury sustained in
the NFC championship game at Seattle in
January 2014.
You could tell he was in his element, he
was in a zone, he was where hes supposed to
be, Wilhoite said. He shined.
Bowman ,who played all but one snap
when he needed a break after a hit to the
groin, and safety Antoine Bethea each had
seven tackles and a sack Monday. Five
Raiders unsure if Woodson will play Sunday

ALAMEDA Raiders cornerback Charles

Woodson was limited in practice for the second
straight day Friday, leaving his status in jeopardy for Sundays game against the Baltimore
Ravens.
The 38-year-old is trying to recover from a
dislocated shoulder he suffered late in last
weeks loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. The
Raiders have already lost starting safety Nate
Allen to a knee injury.
Woodson went through individual drills on
Thursday and Friday but was kept out of all contact drills and scrimmages. Woodson is listed as
questionable on the teams injury report and
coach Jack Del Rio said it

could be a game time decision whether Woodson
plays.
Hes been fighting his
way back all week. Hes
really trying hard to make
it, Del Rio said.
Losing Woodson would
be a big blow to Oaklands
Charles
pass defense, which was
Woodson
picked apart by Cincinnati
quarterback Andy Dalton.
Allen, the veteran safety who signed with the
Raiders as a free agent this past offseason, was
placed on injured reserve. Hes eligible to rejoin
the team for practice in six weeks but wont be

eligible to play until Oaklands game against
the Minnesota Vikings on Nov. 15.
Larry Asante, who started two games for the
Raiders in 2014, has been working with the
first-team defense in practice and is likely to
start. Oakland has also been working in Taylor
Mays, who was signed Tuesday after spending
part of training camp with the team.
Rookie Keenan Lambert, claimed off waivers
from Seattle, is also an option.
If you lose guys like Charles and Nate, its
definitely going to trigger some questions
because theyve been the guys that have been
there, Asante said. But Taylors been in the
system since college, he knows it. So Im con-

Mays joined the Raiders late in training camp
after spending time in the offseason with
Vikings and Detroit Lions. Hell be the replacement at free safety if Woodson is unable to play.
Hes got some work to do, defensive coordinator Ken Norton Jr. said. He has some history of the system back in his early college
days.
Del Rio said Woodsons status will determine
who else plays.

with a team-high 68.
Josh Fakava, who is supposed to be
the Bearcats lead running back, managed only 22 yards on just six carries.
After a 2-yard gain on his first carry of
the game, he came limping to the
sideline.
He always has something (banged
up), Scheller said of Fakava.
[Perdomo] was doing really well for
us. He had the hot hand.
Less work on offense meant more
work on defense for Fakava, who

game listed Friday at 2 p.m.
Both coaches said they had never
previously run into a scheduling
mishap such as this. Huynh is in his
seventh year as Galileos head coach.
Krieger is in his fourth season as
the Spartans. Starting on their own

40, the Bearcats went to work. They
methodically drove into the red zone,
converting a fourth-and-6 with
Salvail finding Alejandro Alvarez
Zamora for 10 yards to keep the drive
alive.
Alvarez Zamora finished the game
with six catches for 53 yards.
As the third quarter ended, San
Mateo had a second-and-goal at the
Mountain View 5. On the first play of
the fourth, Boris Mazin scored from
five yards to get San Mateo on the
scoreboard.
San Mateo forced a third consecutive punt by the Spartans and the
Bearcats offense again found pay dirt.
Starting at their own 45, the Bearcats
went 55 yards on 11 plays, with
Salvail hooking up with Joseph
Baker in the left corner of the end
zone to cut the Mountain View lead to
20-14 with 5:33 to play.
The Bearcats, however, could not
get that one last stop defensively to
give themselves a chance to win the
game. Mountain View used a 11-play,
80-yard scoring drive to ice the victory.
If we would have played the first

have been a different game, Scheller
said. We havent been challenged

THE DAILY JOURNAL
JAKE
as Coach Jake has rightly become synonymous with El Camino sports. With the
South San Francisco campus opening in
1961, he has been integral to Colts athletics for over half the schools 54-year existence. But it is the most recent chapter in
his life, his battle with Charcot-MarieTooth Disease, that has seemed to define
Jacobson in recent years.
Wont back down

But Jacobson sees the context as greater
than just his individual battle with the disease. His deeper mission has been not to
allow the disease to define him, but instead
to use his fight as a shining example as one
of the many entwined in his legacy.
Even in being forced to take a lesser role
with El Camino football after having his
right foot amputated in 2010, he remained
on staff as an assistant coach. He seems as
tortured by the time he spent away from the
field in 2007 when he began going through
the most physically painful episodes that
led to the amputation. He even knows the
precise number of days he missed that year,
81, mostly due to hospitalization.
I never see myself not coaching,
Jacobson said. I dont see myself retiring.
I see myself dying coaching.
Jacobson now wears a prosthetic right
leg. He also has had bone replacement surgery in his left foot, which is fused with permanent screws at the ankle, allowing the
foot no up or down mobility.
Sports brief
Garrick, USC rolling
heading into Pac-12 play
No. 3-ranked USC completed its non-conference schedule Friday by extending its
undefeated record to 12-0, reeling off backto-back wins at the Oklahoma Invitational
hosted by University of Oklahoma.
Friday, the Trojans swept University of
Maryland 25-18, 25-15, 25-17. Thursday,
USC downed host Oklahoma in four sets 2514, 23-25, 25-20, 25-20.
Sacred Heart Prep alumnae Victoria
Garrick continues to provide bedrock
defense for USC. The freshman combined
for 18 digs in the tourney, including 11
While he can walk with the use of the

prosthetic, he often uses a Rascal scooter to
negotiate the terrain of daily football practices. The Rascal is El Camino red. As a rule,
he always wears something black; this isnt
a statement, but an ode to his favorite musical artist Johnny Cash.
I always felt confident in that color,
Jacobson said.
A larger-than-life figure
When Jacobson started his coaching
career in 1991 while still an undergraduate student after injuries ended his career as a
two-sport athlete at City College of San
Francisco he quickly developed quite the
sideline persona. In addition to often sporting a trench coat in the notorious cold
weather of South San Francisco, he always
wore a cowboy hat and boots.
I stopped that after the first couple years,
mainly because I couldnt fit the headset
over [the hat], Jacobson said.
Nowadays, Jacobson often settles for a
black sweatshirt with the school motto
Colt Pride scrawled across it. In many
ways, Jacobson is Mr. Colt. But it doesnt
take long while listening to his honest,
matter-of-fact recounting of his otherwise
horrific medical history to realize the operative word in his affinity with the motto is
pride.
He rediscovered that pride through coaching, when now retired El Camino head coach
Lonnie Beckenhauer who began his
longtime coaching career there in 1976
hired Jacobson and his friend and former EC
teammate Kevin Burr as assistant coaches.
Man, I loved it, Jacobson said. I was
like, Hey, this is better than playing.
Thats really saying something, because
Jacobson was one hell of a player. By his

senior year at El Camino of 1987-88, he
was a football all-leaguer as a lineman and
earned the baseball team MVP. These were
the two sports he initially played in college, which was the reason he chose to
attend CCSF it was the only local community college to offer both sports.
Yet, Jacobson said it was the 1987-88 El
Camino basketball team that stands out.
Jacobson was a sixth-man off the bench on
the historic team that, at the time, set the
schools all-time mark with a 22-5 overall
record and advanced to the CCS Division II
semifinals. One of 11 core seniors on the
team, Jacobson can readily name each of the
other 10 seniors without pause. And he still
has a newspaper clipping hanging in the EC
coaches office from his career-best 12point performance against Menlo-Atherton
that season.
I loved playing basketball that senior
year, Jacobson said. It was the most fun
Ive ever had.
Coaching familiarity
Now, Jacobsons career has come full circle. Two of the core figures of his coaching
staff in Junio and frosh-soph head coach
Jeff Cosico were players during Jacobsons
17
first post as head coach with the 1991

frosh-soph football team. Turner too was a
member of that team. And the vast majority
of El Caminos coaching staff is also composed of former alumni.
And while Jacobson continues to battle
through daily pains of merely negotiating
the hilly terrain of El Caminos athletic
facilities, he said he has no intention of
missing any more time doing what he
loves. He missed enough time in 2007,
when he was first hospitalized with debilitating Charcot-Marie-Tooth symptoms,
which he describes as being similar to diabetes.
Jacobson missed a total of 81 days that
year. Yes, he knows the exact number. He
also missed two games, including the regular-season rivalry finale against South City.
He did return for El Caminos playoff game
against Palo Alto that season one of just
four postseason berths in program history.
With El Camino playing in the C-league
Peninsula Athletic League Lake Division
this season, the program has an uphill
climb to return to the postseason. But even
if it is some years off, Jacobson remains
poised to be coaching that fifth all-time
playoff appearance.
I love doing it, Jacobson said. I cant
see myself ever not coaching.

By Lindsey Bahr
Everest is not an easy movie to watch. No entertainment

that contains such tragedy should be.
The truly breathtaking spectacle and technical achievements can make you feel like you too are on a vertical
slope at 29,000 feet. But this awe-inspiring movie is
also one thats laced with dread, little triumph and
even less perspective as you wait, with a knotted
stomach, for the disasters to manifest.
Everest recounts the events of, and leading up
to, May 10, 1996, when a series of controversial
decisions and a heap of bad luck led to the deaths
of 8 climbers then the deadliest day in Everest
history.
It is not, however, based on the most famous
account, journalist Jon Krakauers book Into
Thin Air. Its an amalgamation of stories,
reports and never-before-heard tapes from the

My only regret is that I wish I had

to drive because I thought it would
be a distraction. But I didnt know
until now that learning how to drive
would teach me about so much
more than just traffic rules and
identifying road signs.
Being a good driver requires an
intense level of focus and responsibility. It takes every ounce of
willpower in me not to fall asleep
behind the wheel when there is traffic on the highway, but this is not

charming musical, Amlie

At Berkeley Rep, award-winning actress Samantha Barks as Amlie with the cast of Amlie, A
New Musical.
Assuming that Broadway is its intended

destination, Berkeley Repertory Theaters
world premiere production of Amlie, A
New Musical is well on its way.
This musical version of the 2001 French
film tells the story of a shy young woman
whose small gestures help people connect
while she herself moves closer to her own
romantic connection.
With ear-pleasing music by Daniel Mess,
lyrics by Nathan Tysen and Mess, and a book
by Craig Lucas, Amlie is an utterly engaging show.
It features Samantha Barks as the title char-
acter with an assured Savvy Crawford as

young Amlie. Her caring but distant parents
are played by Alison Cimmet and John
Hickok.
The adult Amlie finds work and a family
of sorts with the patrons and other workers in
a Paris cafe. From there, a series of adventures leads her to a photo-collage artist, Nino
(Adam Chanler-Berat).
It takes a long time on her part and a lot of
effort on his before they finally connect in
person in a shy, sweet scene.
Most of the 13 performers in this ensemble
cast play varied roles, and all do well, often
transforming themselves in seconds.

HELP PEOPLE WITH DEPRESSION.
Actor and KGO radio personality Brian
Copelands solo show The Waiting Period,
performed at The Marsh in San Francisco,
focuses on a period in his life when he decided to commit suicide by shooting himself.
Copeland was able to step back from the brink
during the 10-day mandatory waiting period
between the time he purchased a gun and the
day he could legally pick it up. In The Waiting
Period, Copeland deftly and sensitively
sketches fellow depression sufferers, impacted family members, and well-intended if misguided friends, and uses the dramatic frame of
those 10 days in his own life to tell the broader story of depressions debilitating effects
and sometimes deadly outcome. Now,
Copeland and The Marsh seek to raise
$150,000 so they can present The Waiting
Period weekly for one year free of charge.
They are doing this because the show has literally saved lives by getting people to seek
help. Suicidal people have changed their
minds and reached out after seeing the show.
The actor and the theater want young people

Clarke leads the ensemble cast of Everest,

doomed 1996 expedition that claimed the lives
of eight climbers the deadliest day on the
mountain at the time. To scale the planets
highest peak on screen, the actors Clarke,

Josh Brolin, Jake Gyllenhaal, John Hawkes and
Michael Kelly had to train like real mountaineers.
Director Balthasar Kormakur insisted on
authenticity, so he brought his cast and crew to

16,000 feet. (The highest ski resorts in the U.S.
top out around 13,000 feet. Most are less than

acterized by headache, nausea, dizziness and

exhaustion.
Where climbers experience gradual elevation gain during their ascent that helps them
acclimatize to the thinner air, the Everest cast
and crew were flown in. Advance preparation
was essential, and still sometimes insufficient.
We were dropped off in helicopters at the
end because it was too hard to walk up there
and then shoot a scene, Kormakur said. At
that point, I just saw the crew start falling apart.
People got sick. We had to evacuate them.
Other snowy sequences were filmed in the
Italian alps at around 12,000 feet still high
enough to cause the aches and foggy thought
associated with being at high altitude.
To work up there, the actors had to become
hikers months before production began
which suited Clarke and Brolin just fine.
Brolin was already a rock climber, and he
used the film as an excuse to up his outdoor
game. He spent seven months training, climbing on Switzerlands famous Eiger and sum-
miting Californias Mts. Shasta and Whitney.

This is selfish to me, he said. I got to do
all the things I love to do and I got to do it in
an extreme fashion that I probably wouldnt
have if I didnt have the excuse of doing a
movie.
Brolin plays Beck Weathers, who miraculously survived the fated 1996 Everest expedition, despite spending 18 hours stranded on
the mountain, weathering its extreme conditions. He lost his hands and nose to frostbite.
His book, Left for Dead: My Journey Home
From Everest, served as an inspiration for
the film.
Actors Hawkes and Kelly, who wouldnt
consider themselves mountaineers, each hiked
to ready for their roles. Still, they felt the
wearying effects of working at high elevation.
There was a part of you going, Im lightheaded, Im not thinking clearly, Hawkes
said, but it also affords you a chance to really
not act and just be in the moment, which is a
great gift for actors.
EVEREST
Icelandic director Baltasar Kormkur (2

Guns) wrangles the story, characters, and
beastly natural setting as best as he can. The
film trots along briskly and hits beats with sitcom precision as we go from sea level to base
camp to the ultimate ascent. There is some
levity too, thanks to Gyllenhaals earthy expedition leader Scott Fischer, but mostly blunt
foreboding.
The scenes on the mountain are truly outstanding, and the 3-D is atmospheric, not gimmicky. You can almost feel the ice thrashing
against the characters faces as the remarkable
storm hits. A brief, thrilling scene with a helicopter is worth the price of admission alone.
The grandiosity of the mountain, though, is
juxtaposed with Kormkurs odd choice to
shoot many of the character scenes in extreme
close-up. Unless youre in the ideal center in
an IMAX theater, the effect can be claustrophobic, and it does not make the emoting
more effective. Instead, it detracts from the
performances.
Fictionalized accounts of real tragedy are
not impenetrable. James Cameron made us
feel for a ship full of characters wed never
met. Everest cant break that seal, and its a
handicap. Maybe theres too much reverence.
Maybe the story and the truth are supposed to
be enough and anything else would have
seemed exploitative. With 19 years of perspective and the technical ability to visually
tell the story that weve all heard so many
times at this point, though, it should have been
more.
Everest is a good movie, but it could have
been a great one.
Everest, a Universal Pictures release, is
rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture
Association of America for intense peril and
disturbing images. Running time: 121 minutes. Two and a half stars out of four.

day, focused mostly though on Adventure
Consultants lead Rob Hall (Jason Clarke), and
Texan climber Beck Weathers (Josh Brolin).
Krakauer is a character in Everest,
(House of Cards Michael Kelly), but a
peripheral, underdeveloped one. His presence
as a journalist covering the expedition frames
the growing tension between customer service
and safety inherent in the commercialization
of adventure. The script also uses him as a
why climb observer. He can bluntly ask
what the audience is thinking, and he does at
one point. The scene goes nowhere, though.
The other characters crack wise or choose
silence, as though the desire to climb Everest
is so unexplainable. Because its there, they
say.
So when a handful of climbers do make it to
the peak, its harder to feel their euphoria. All
we can see is looming death.
Thats part of the problem of Everest. All
the elements are there, but the emotions never
land even with the inclusion of previously
private conversation between Rob Hall and
his pregnant wife Jan (Keira Knightley) as his
plight atop the mountain becomes direr.
The large ensemble cast is packed with recognizable faces Clarke, Brolin, John
Hawkes, Jake Gyllenhaal, Emily Watson,
Knightley, Sam Worthington, and on and on. It
can be distracting, but perhaps it is the only
way to truly orient an audience with whos
who. Theres not a lot of time to get to know
the individuals before their faces are obscured
with ski masks and goggles and theyre
reduced to, and dependent on, our ability to
recall the color of their snowsuits.

ELECTION
The eager candidates are Davina Hurt, an
attorney and current vice chair of Belmonts
Planning Commission; Doug Kim, director of
planning at SamTrans, Caltrain and the San
Mateo County Transit Authority as well as
chair of the citys Planning Commission; and
Dwight Looi, a computer engineer and director
of product development for an industrial computing company.
Recovering from controversy

Changes to the citys Zoning and Tree ordinances, which guide how property owners
remodel their homes, sparked more than 2,000
citizens to sign a referendum claiming they
wanted more input and forced the council to
repeal the amendments it claimed were meant
to ease remodels for growing families.
From potentially reducing parking requirements to increasing maximum home sizes for
large lots, the city is now seeking to engage citizens as it forges ahead.
As planning commissioners, Hurt and Kim
reviewed the ordinances and recommended
they be approved. Since the referendum, both
said they want to work with citizens to provide
more progressive rules that will improve
Belmonts housing stock.
I think all and all, open government and
transparency is present and were going to further that along by taking a second look, Hurt
said, later adding its time to heal. Moving forward, we should find consensus and build community. Lets find the things we do agree on
and build upon that.
Kim agreed, adding the numerous changes
reflect how planning and zoning is like a web
of requirements aimed at avoiding unintended
consequences.
I believe that in spite of the fractured nature
of Belmont politics over the last few months, I
think were going to end up with a good product when we take this back to the citizens,
Kim said. Lets make the requirements more
objective so it becomes a more straightforward
approach and lets have the level of scrutiny
properly calibrated to the size of your addition.
Looi said while hes not opposed to all of the
changes in principle, the process was flawed
and he believes citizens should be polled twice
a year to allow for more feedback.
SCHOOL
housing project dedicated for district teachers
and staff, as well as those employed by other
public agencies.
District officials have long been seeking a
new home for the alternative education program, due to concerns regarding the considerable distance between the San Bruno campus
and the homes of students. Most of Peninsulas
students live in San Mateo.
Skelly said the most recent recommendation
is an amalgamation of concepts which have
been bandied by district officials.
Some of these ideas have been batted around
for some time, said Skelly. This is an accumulation of good ideas.
Considering much of the Peninsula student
population has a prolonged history of absenteeism from their home campuses, some officials have questioned the logic of asking them
to take hour-long bus rides to reach a remote
region of the district to attend classes.
Crestmoor is probably not the best site for
the continuation school, given its distance from
the center of the district, said Skelly.
The proposed location on Rollins Road,
which is currently the home of the districts
charter school Design Tech High School, or
d.tech, is centrally located and is considerably
more accessible via public transportation,
according to a district press release.
This is a location that can serve kids well,
Skelly said of the property in Burlingame.
D.tech is in the process of reaching an agreement to move onto the Oracle Corporation campus in Redwood Shores. The Redwood City
Council gave unanimous approval in June to
begin an environmental impact review of the
proposed move.
District officials reached a two-year agreement in March to move the charter school from
Mills High School to the property owned by
While personally against

an increase in density, Looi
said the councils job is to
heed residents concerns.
As a councilman, I
believe it is important that
my personal opinion be
subservient to the opinions
of the citizens, Looi said,
later adding, I think on
Davina Hurt certain issues, people have
strong opinions. Having a
contentious debate is a good thing, I dont see
why we should reduce that.
Creating a downtown
Kim said Belmont only has a small area with
which to work but the city could benefit from
having a symbolic heart particularly if it
functions as an economic or sales tax generator.
While balancing growth, Kim said hed centralize parking, attempt to attract a few restaurants to serve as hubs and build pocket parks as
a draw for families. Hes an advocate for using
a downtown to diversify the citys housing
stock and encouraging residences as a way to
promote a central gathering place.
Looi said Belmont is not isolated and there
are numerous downtowns nearby so having
another retail cluster isnt absolutely necessary.
However, he wouldnt be opposed to increasing residential or commercial density in a
downtown so long as it doesnt add to traffic.
Hurt said shed like to see the city partner
with businesses to promote more of a downtown surrounding City Hall and Twin Pines
Park. Cognizant of limited space, Hurt said she
wants to maintain a small-town feel and the
existing tree canopy while creating more family-friendly streetscapes.
Fixing infrastructure
and improving Ralston Avenue
The city recently completed the Ralston
Avenue Corridor Study, which outlines
improvements for all modes of transportation
on Belmonts busiest and main east-to-west
thoroughfare.
Looi said he wouldnt support adding other
entities like a new school that would overcrowd Ralston Avenue without better mitigation measures an issue coming to the council with the private Crystal Springs Upland
School looking to open a site off Davis Drive.
Opposed to any new taxes, Looi said hed prefer to find the funds needed to fix streets by
cutting administrative costs.
county Office of Education in Burlingame,
soothing concerns that had arisen regarding the
two schools cohabiting the same campus in
Millbrae.
Should the proposed musical chairs of facilities proceed as anticipated, the Crestmoor High
School campus, which was closed for full-time
use in 1980, would be left vacant and potentially available for staff and teacher housing.
Regardless of the direction officials elect to
move with proposed use of the Crestmoor campus, the athletic fields at the site will remain
open to the public, according to the release,
which has been a desire reiterated by San Bruno
residents when discussing the future of district
property.
We acknowledge those fields are really
important to the city of San Bruno, said Skelly.
In an effort to address another prevailing set
of concerns, Skelly said the housing component
of the proposal is designed to aid district teachers and staff who have had trouble keeping up
with the constantly escalating cost of living in
San Mateo County, said Skelly.
The ability to possibly offer teacher and staff
housing could also help make the high school
district seem more lucrative when pursuing
highly-qualified workers, said Skelly.
We all know that quality teachers are the
best indicator of a quality district, he said.
This is a chance for us to create what we think
could be a potentially game-changing advantage in terms of attracting the very best teachers
we possibly can.
But as officials balance a variety of competing needs and demands, the domino effect of
district programs relocating is contingent on
Peninsula Alternative High School moving to
the site on Rollins Road, according to the
release.
Also under the recommendation, the headquarters of the district administration will stay
put at its current location on the San Mateo
High School campus. The district offices had
been targeted for relocation as well, but the centralized location and accessibility to district
families has encouraged officials to reconsider,

Hurt
said.
Instead, shed prefer to promote economic
development thereby having taxes contribute to
the citys crumbling infrastructure while also
pursuing grants.
With Belmonts streets rated some of the
worst in the region, Kim said its critical to
address infrastructure needs by pursuing possible long-term financing options for repairs.
As for Ralston Avenue, Kim said coordinating with the schools for various start times to
taper student dropoffs would help manage traffic. Along with spreading traffic demand, he
too would prioritize building traffic signals at
key intersections.

Dwight Looi in setting prices and therefore, the way I look at it, if
you cant afford to live in the city or you cant

Priorities
Hurt said she supports workforce housing

and ensuring police, teachers and those who
work in the city have options.
We can look to different development
agreements for large properties that come up
and see if theres a percent that works, Hurt
said in regards to having below-market rate
units built within a new housing complex. Its
definitely a priority, this affects everyone and
we should work and do what we can to keep
folks living and working in Belmont.
Kim said cities need to do their part and
would consider the downtown as an area in
which to diversify the housing stock in terms of
supply and affordability.
We have a pro rata responsibility to help
deal with this issue, Kim said. I believe that
we should be responsible for constructing our
fair share of housing at different affordability
levels to continue to provide the foundation for
long-term economic sustainability in our
region.
Looi said he appreciates Belmonts current
character and increasing density could have
negative consequences. In general, he opposes
taxpayers funding housing and believes people
should live within their means.

up with is changing. As a transportation planner, Kim said he has unique insight and wants
to find ways to balance growth.
Working families, with every passing day,
are finding it more challenging to live and
flourish here and whether you care about those
people or not, it ultimately affects us all. It
affects our economy and transportation system, Kim said. What we need in Belmont is
a sophisticated way at looking at the tradeoffs
of policy decisions, lets find a sweet spot.
Looi said he wants to focus on tackling the
citys unfunded liabilities and its time to stop
kicking the can down the road. A newcomer to
politics, Looi said hes ready to bring a fresh
perspective.
I think the city of Belmont has two issues
that I think warrant attention. The first being
that I think the current council has acted in a
way that I guess is relatively indifferent to the
views and the opinions of the residents, Kim
said. I intend to bring a private sector perspective to the operation of government. I think
government has a lot to learn from the private
sector in terms of keeping things clean and efficient.
Hurt said shes seen Belmont undergo
progress, but shes also seen stagnation. She
said shes motivated to push progressive ideas
that will support families and community.
My priorities are pretty simple, I want to
strengthen our neighborhoods by doing infrastructure improvements and modernization, I
want to preserve our open space and I believe
economic development will [help fund
improvements] to our infrastructure, Hurt
said. I think efficiency and cost are important
and when we try to build consensus and community, we should balance all those items.
according to the release.

Officials will also search for a location in an
industrial area to serve as the future home of the
districts maintenance, information technology
and student nutrition services departments. An
earlier proposal to purchase property on the
Burlingame Bayfront for new district offices
and other uses was ultimately never pursued.
During the meeting, district staff will recommend trustees approve rebuilding the district
office at its current location, support an effort to
acquire industrial office space and seek permission to extend the Rollins Road lease with the
county Office of Education beyond the current

2017 deadline, according to the release.
Each component of the proposed plan though
requires a great deal of consideration by district
staff, trustees and the public, said Skelly.
Each piece of this is really important, and
they all have to fall into place, said Skelly.
Often that takes time and conversations, and I
think thats what we need to do.

Driving has also taught me the importance
of finding the perfect balance between being
impulsive and being slow if you are slow,
you will miss your opportunity and if you are
impulsive, you could end up causing a lot of

I cannot change lanes without turning on my

New Maze Runner film

lacks urgency of original
By Justin Lowe
LOS ANGELES Wes Balls

adaptation of the first book from
James Dashners Maze Runner
young adult novels, about a group
of teens consigned to a mysterious
labyrinth, yielded a feature that
proved it could compete for the
same audience as the Hunger
Games and Divergent series.
The second installment, which
reveals some of the reasons behind
the teens imprisonment, lacks a
similar sense of originality and
urgency, undercut by overly familiar characterizations and dilatory
pacing.
The conclusion of 2014s The
Maze Runner revealed that the
teenagers known as Gladers were
confined to their maze by the World
Catastrophe Killzone Department
(WCKD), a quasi-governmental
agency tasked with eradicating a
viral plague that has killed off
much of the worlds population and
transformed many survivors into
homicidal, zombielike Cranks.
Confronting WCKD and exposing
its oppressive policies becomes the
teens primary mission in The
Scorch Trials, but this imperative
increasingly diverges from the
realm of speculative fiction that
forms the basis of the book series in
favor of an action-adventure format.
Now free of their maze after suf-
fering several significant casualties,

the Gladers are confronted by the
widespread breakdown of social
order following a series of unprecedented solar events that have overheated the Earths surface critically
and decimated many terrestrial
ecosystems. After unidentified soldiers evacuate them to an ominous
underground paramilitary facility,
the teens discover that their group
was only one of several subjected
to the mysterious maze trials.
Janson (Aidan Gillen), who appears
to run the operation, separates the
Gladers for medical exams and
debriefings, aggressively interrogating Thomas (Dylan OBrien)
and whisking Teresa (Kaya
Scodelario) away to an unknown
location. Befriending young loner
Aris (Jacob Lofland), an escapee
from a different maze, Thomas discovers that the facility is actually a
cover for WCKD and that Janson is
working for WCKDs dreaded
director of operations, Dr. Ava
Paige (Patricia Clarkson), conducting intrusive medical procedures on
the maze survivors.
Rescuing Teresa from similar
exploitation, the Gladers evade
Jansons thugs and break out of the
underground bunker, emerging into
the devastated landscape of the
Scorch, a pitiless desert. Thomas
plans to lead the group across the
expanse and into a distant mountain
range, where they hope to make
contact with a rebel group known

they seek shelter in an abandoned

A significant portion of The

Wes Ball, Hollywoods

blockbuster visionary
By Lindsey Bahr
UNIVERSAL CITY Wes Ball didnt

mean to have a signature hat. He cant even
remember where he got the tattered, sweatstained, beige baseball cap with the white
embroidered Catskill Mountains stitching.
But he knows one thing for sure hes not
taking it off anytime soon, and definitely not
during production.
During one of the busiest weeks near the
end of filming The Scorch Trials, the second movie in the Maze Runner trilogy, Ball
thought he might try out a new hat, and everything went haywire. Not only were they
shooting the most complicated sequence in
the shortest amount of time, it was also at
night in the New Mexico desert, where the
temperature sometimes dropped to the single
digits. Then the cast started having medical
issues.
Ki Hong Lee got appendicitis. Kaya
Scodelario had a kidney failure. Dexter
Darden was hospitalized with sickle cell anemia. Then Dylan OBrien contracted the flu,
was out for two days, and came back only to
break a leg in the middle of a scene.
And yes, he used the take where he breaks
his leg.
The whole end scene hes got a broken leg.
You can see him hobbling, said Ball on a
recent afternoon at his office in the San
Fernando Valley. I was like, Im never taking off this hat again.
In the end, this perfect storm of chaos only
added two days to the schedule and they still
came in under budget. Not bad for a green
director who was plucked out of near obscurity to set the tone for The Maze Runner
franchise, Foxs attempt at making a Hunger
Games of their own.
With the first Maze Runner, which was
made for $34 million and earned over $340
million worldwide last year, Ball has proven
himself to be a pro who can deliver. Fox loves
him. His actors love him. Its the sort of reputation you need when youre making your
name in Hollywood.
He doesnt waste
money. He knows where
he wants to spend. He
knows what he needs to
build and then what he
can add on to with visual
effects, said veteran producer Wyck Godfrey. He
has vision. Thats the long
and the short of it... It
Wes Ball
wasnt just talk.
At 34, hes not exactly a wunderkind. Hes
paid his dues. Ball attended film school at
Florida State University with dreams of
directing. He won a Student Academy Award
for an animated short that helped him get a
foot in the door when he first moved to Los
Angeles. That translated to jobs in VFX and
post work, which paid the bills and continued
his technical education while he developed
projects on the side.
Then one took off. Ruin, an 8-minute
computer animated post-apocalyptic adventure, went viral. Suddenly he was getting calls
from agents and taking meetings all over
town. During this time, someone at Fox gave
him James Dashners The Maze Runner to
look at. He did, developed a pitch, and within
a few days he had sold Ruin and gotten the
Maze Runner job, both at Fox.
Its rare that you give somebody a shot
based on an animated short film to do a live
action movie. You could see in the short that
he had real cinematic flair, said Godfrey.
Balls Studio City office, a multi-level loft
that he shares with filmmaker friends, is a hub
of creativity and a film geeks paradise.
Among the workstations and flannel shirts
strewn on the couches, theres a model of R2D2, and posters for 1980s adventure cult classics like The Goonies and Joe Dantes
Explorers are hanging about. He laughs that
even the baseball cap is some Indiana
Jones-style extension of his person, or from
watching too many Steven Spielberg behindthe-scenes clips.
The child-of-the-80s furnishings are no
accident. Ball wants to tell small stories on a
big canvas, like his idols.
terrestrial environment that threatens humanitys survival. (Some

type of super ozone hole or rapid
deterioration of the Earths atmosphere? An unprecedented solar
flare-up?) The evidence connecting
that event to the development and
spread of a deadly virus is so vague
as to appear almost speculative.
As the groups de-facto leader,
OBrien imbues the role of Thomas
with a degree of determined stoicism that appears little evolved
since the franchises first installment, relying more on withholding
emotion than displaying it. Janson
represents the Gladers foremost
threat, and Gillen deceptively displays the duplicity required as a
WCKD agent whos tasked with
extracting information from the
Gladers and preparing them for the

next ominous phase of their ordeal.
Cinematically, Ball attempts to
sustain engagement by providing
each successive setting with a different combination of threats and distinctive stylistic treatment, borrowing from drama, thriller and horror
genres. While the technique adds
visual diversity, its not particularly
cohesive, lending the sequences a
distinctly episodic quality.
Maze Runner: The Scorch
Trials, a 20th Century Fox release,
is rated PG-13 by the Motion
Picture Association of America for
extended sequences of violence
and action, some thematic elements, substance use and language. Running time: 131 minutes.

crucial projects such as repairing the West
End Trail near Mavericks and tending to
erosion at Surfers Beach will proceed
under McGrath.
Everyone is really looking forward to
the new manager coming on. Weve got a
tremendous start to a number of projects
and before the years end, were going to
see even more progress, said board
President Tom Mattusch. These are the
types of things that excite us, were actually moving the Harbor District forward
in a way that hasnt been done before.
Vice President Nicole David, who
served on the executive search committee
with Mattusch, agreed shes confident
they found a qualified leader.
Commissioner Sabrina Brennan, who
conflicted with Grenell and current
Interim General Manager Glen Lazof,
said shes looking forward to McGrath
coming on board.
Im very excited about it. I think he is
going to be a steadying factor for the district. I think hes all business and no nonsense. I think he has a lot of experience
getting grants and thats going to be very
helpful. Im looking forward to it, its
been a long time coming and I think this
really signifies the end of an era,
Brennan said. Were finally going to be
able to make a transformation and this is
the start of that. Its a key position and we
cant do it without him.
Now, the district is also in need of finding replacements for other key positions
such as the IT and Human Resources
director, deputy secretary, office assistant
and finance director.
The finance position is currently being
filled by a former staffer and opened up

put their money than their own slowing
economy. Investors from China are now
second only to Canadians in the number
of U.S. homes they buy.
In the last few months, amid signs that
Chinas economy is slowing even more
than expected, Chinese investors have
stepped up their buying even more. The
governments decision last month to
downgrade the countrys currency added
to their urgency, since a weaker yuan
makes buying real estate in dollars more
expensive.
I got a spur of buyers contacting me

after the district reached a six-figure settlement with Debra Galarza.
Galarza spent nearly 10 years with the
district and was serving as finance director when she filed two internal complaints as well as a tort claim. Galarza
also accused Brennan and the district of
discrimination by filing a charge with the
states Department of Fair Employment
and Housing, according to the settlement
agreement.
To avoid litigation, the district opted to
pay Galarza $295,000 as well as nearly
two years of health benefits, according to
the agreement.
Galarza agreed to step down Sept. 4 in
exchange for a letter of recommendation
and the six-figure payment, according to
the agreement. A hefty payout, the commissioners wouldnt discuss the merits of
Galarzas claim, which involved an
extensive investigation and legal fees.
The district chose to settle the claim
and complaint filed by the former director
of finance to avoid the expense, uncertainty and distraction of prolonged litigation. In deciding whether to settle the
claim, the future unknown risk of losing
in court was considered against the certainty and finality that a settlement
brings, David wrote in an email.
Along with the key finance position,
McGrath will also be in charge of filing
vacant positions and rebuilding our team.
The district has lost key staff recently and
it will be essential to bring in new hires to
help the district run smoothly, David
wrote.
While excited by the prospect, complications over McGraths contract have
resulted in the need for another formal
vote, Mattusch said. Mattusch and
Brennan said theyre hopeful the issue
concerning relocation fees will be
resolved.
According to the San Luis Obispo
Tribune, McGraths contact at his current
job was not renewed and expires Nov. 30.

Lazof, who spent more than four
months with the district after current
Harbormaster Scott Grindy opted to
return to his post instead of continuing as
interim general manager, got a taste of
the controversy. An alleged conflict
between Lazof and Brennan prompted
him to send a memo to staff and the
board expressing concern over staffs
well-being. He requested staff avoid
speaking directly with her outside of
public meetings. Brennan denies the
accusations and noted the relationship
seems to have improved. Although the
board recently hired an attorney to investigate an allegation of harassment its
unclear whether that claim was made by
Brennan or Lazof.
Brennan did not support hiring the outside counsel and said shes concerned by
the districts high legal fees.
For Lazof, he said leaving the district is
bittersweet.
As challenging as its been, I really
have enjoyed, for the great majority of the
most part, the people and the community
I worked with, Lazof said. Theres
potential for that place. I really hope
weve created a foundation for McGrath
to do wonderful things.
Brennan said shes confident McGrath
will provide long-term stability for the
district and help build a dream team to
lead the district. However, while many
want to see quick progress, it could take
time for the new general manager to catch
his bearings, Brennan said.
Hes a very, very experienced manager and will make smart decisions about
staffing, Brennan said. Hes not going
to be able to make radical changes
overnight. Its going to take some time to
get caught up. Were just going to
have to be patient. But were finally
going to be moving in a positive direction.
sent just a sliver of overall U.S. home

sales, they have impacted markets significantly in certain cities such as New York,
San Francisco, Seattle and Irvine,
California. Buyers are also showing up in
more affordable Midwestern areas like
Chicago.
In the 12 months ended in March,
roughly 209,000 U.S. houses were sold to
buyers living outside the U.S. or immigrants in the country for less than two
years, according to the National
Association of Realtors. That represents
about 4 percent of all sales of previously
occupied homes in the same period.
Of the $104 billion in total sales,
Chinese buyers accounted for the biggest
portion, $28.6 billion. Half of those sales
involved homes in Florida, California,
Texas and Arizona.
Overall, U.S. home sales to foreign
buyers have been falling 10 percent in
the 12 months ended in March compared
to the same period a year earlier but
the devaluation of the yuan makes a slowdown in Chinese deals unlikely.
Thats one reason its likely that
Chinese who are interested in buying real

estate wont pull back now, said
Lawrence Yun, chief economist for the
National Association of Realtors.
So far this year, the yuan has fallen 2.6
percent versus the dollar. It now takes
about 6.37 yuan to buy $1. Thats still
better than five years ago, when 6.77
yuan bought $1.
For now, the change in the currency is
likely not enough to dissuade well-heeled
homebuyers from China, said Wei Min
Tan, a real estate broker who caters to
investors looking to buy condominiums
in Manhattan.
My clients may say, OK, Ill just
negotiate an extra 5 percent off, said
Tan, whose clients tend to buy condos
priced between $1 million and $5 million.
That price range is typical of Chinese
investors buying homes elsewhere in the
U.S. And most of them pay in cash.
In the last year or two, weve seen
more sales pushing $5 to $10 million,
said Tere Foster, managing broker for
Team Foster at Windemere Real Estate in
Seattle.

Europeans shut
borders to halt
migrant surges
By Danica Kirka and Dusan Stojanovic
ZAGREB, Croatia Thousands of

migrants were trapped Friday in a vicious tugof-war as bickering European governments
shut border crossings, blocked bridges and
erected new barbed-wire fences in a bid to
stem the wave of humanity fleeing conflict
and poverty in the Middle East and Africa.
Asylum-seekers who fled westward after
being beaten back by tear gas and water cannon on the Hungarian-Serbian border just
days earlier found themselves being returned
to Serbia, where their ordeal began, after
Croatia declared it could not handle the
influx.
The EUs failure to find a unified response
to the crisis left this tiny Balkan nation, one of
the poorest in the European Union, squeezed
between the blockades thrown up by Hungary

and Slovenia and the unending flood of people flowing north from Syria, Iraq and
Afghanistan.
With more than 17,089 migrants arriving in
just three days, Croatian Prime Minister
Zoran Milanovic declared that his nation of
4.2 million could no longer cope and the asylum-seekers could not stay.
What else can we do? Milanovic said at a
news conference. You are welcome in
Croatia and you can pass through Croatia. But
go on. Not because we dont like you, but
because this is not your final destination.
Croatia has shown it has a heart, he said.
We also need to show we have a brain.
Across eastern Europe, barriers to the
migrants passage were thrown up as nations
tried to shift the burden of handling the influx
onto their neighbors, leaving asylum-seekers

ever more desperate and confused.
Croatia declared itself overwhelmed and
began busing migrants to Hungary and closing its border crossings with Serbia. Slovenia
halted rail service to Croatia and was sending
migrants back there, while Hungary began
building yet another razor-wire border fence,
this time on its border with Croatia.

Caught in the middle of this high-stakes
game of hot potato were the masses of miserable men, women and children who have
found their way to the wealthier European
nations they wish to settle in blocked at every
turn.
Feds China comments reinforce unease about growth prospects

By Joe McDonald and Paul Wiseman
BEIJING The Federal Reserve chiefs

rare comments on China reinforced unease its
weakening economy might be headed for a
deeper slump. But many experts still think
fears of a China crisis are overblown.
The worlds second-largest economy has
been stubbornly resistant to stimulus following
five interest rate cuts since November. Growth
in many industries is still decelerating. August

exports and auto sales shrank.
On Thursday, U.S. Federal Reserve chairwoman Janet Yellen mentioned China along
with inflation after Fed governors put off a
long-expected interest rate hike. Such concern
is unusual for the Fed, which usually limits its
focus to the U.S. economy.
The question is whether or not there might
be a risk of a more abrupt slowdown than most
analysts expect, Yellen told reporters.
Much of Chinas slowdown is self-imposed

as part of the ruling Communist Partys effort
to replace a worn-out model based on trade and
investment with more self-sustaining growth
driven by domestic consumption.
Instead of leveling off in what President Xi
Jinping has dubbed the new normal, economic growth has ground steadily lower as
steel mills, coal mines and other heavy industry shed jobs, raising the risk of a politically
dangerous spike in unemployment.
We are not expecting a hard landing, but

clearly there is no sign that things are improving any time soon, said economist Wei Li at
Commonwealth Bank of Australia.
Many economists say fears of a Chinese collapse are not grounded in reality.
The main stock market index, despite a collapse in prices in June, is up 40 percent from its
level last year. Auto sales contracted by 3.4
percent in August but Chinese drivers still
bought 1.4 million cars, minivans and SUVs.
