A humanely placed bullet is a generations-old method of dispatching pets

in rural parts of the country where a
veterinarians syringe can be expensive and hours away. And even those
angry at how Bruno died say outlawing
the practice isnt likely because it is
so deeply ingrained in the nations
agrarian traditions, where farmers and
ranchers have long put down domestic
animals with a gunshot.
New Hampshire is among 27 states
plus the District of Columbia that
have no laws governing emergency
euthanasia, according to the
American
Veterinary
Medical
Association. Justice For Bruno has
contacted state officials and its
change.org petition has more than
36,000 signatures in support of a new
law.
State Rep. John Tholl, who lives in
New Hampshires north country and
chairs the House public safety committee, said a ban on shooting a pet as
a form of euthanasia faces long odds,
especially in rural states.
Its been common practice for people up here to put down their animals
not just dogs because theyre
hurt in such a way that they cant be
saved or theyre so old that they need
to be relieved of suffering, Tholl said.
And the cost to do that through a vet
is quite expensive.
The dog whose death prompted calls
for new legislation, however, was not
injured.

Sisters charged with elder abuse after mothers death

By Scott Morris
BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE
Two San Mateo sisters pleaded not guilty

to elder abuse charges Friday after police
found the decaying body of their mother
lying in filth in their home two years ago,
prosecutors said.
After two years of investigation, prosecutors filed charges last week against the sisters after concluding they criminally neglected their 73-year-old mother while they lived
together for about two years, San Mateo
County District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe
said Monday.
Moala Siafoou Tatola, 40, and Tafolosa
Haisaane Tatolamahe, 47, were living with
their mother as caregivers in a home in the
1600 block of East Third Avenue in San
Mateo from sometime in 2011 until her death

in early 2013, according to prosecutors.
They reported their mothers death on
March 9, 2013, and when police arrived,
they found the mother lying nude on the bed,
already decaying with feces all around her.
Her back and legs were nearly black from
filth, gangrene and dying flesh, prosecutors
said.
An autopsy revealed the woman died of
pneumonia. The sisters told investigators
they tried to care for her but she refused to go
to a doctor despite suffering from diabetes.
However, they said they didnt notice the
squalid condition she was in before her death,
prosecutors said.
Wagstaffe said that after a lengthy investigation and review process, it was clear the
woman could not have ended up in the condi-
tion she did if the daughters were not criminally neglectful.

For example, if she refused to go to the
doctor, the sisters could have sought assistance from San Mateo County Adult and
Aging Services, he said.
While the pathologist was unable to pinpoint exactly when the woman died, its possible the sisters continued living with her for
some time before reporting her death,
Wagstaffe said.
The woman couldnt be in that condition
without being totally ignored, Wagstaffe
said.
The sisters remain in custody on $150,000
bail and are scheduled to return to court for a
preliminary hearing on Nov. 25.

West hit with blast of

winter-like weather
By Christopher Weber
LOS ANGELES A wintry blast of air

brought blizzard-like conditions Monday to
parts of the West after whipping up a damaging tornado in Central California and buffeting the Los Angeles area with gusts topping
70 mph, forecasters said.
Drivers in Southern California mountain
areas were urged to use caution as light snow
and hail fell at elevations as low as 4,000
feet. Powerful winds knocked down branches and caused scattered power outages.
Blowing snow and ice also slowed traffic
on mountain highways in northern Arizona
and New Mexico as the weather system
moved east.
As much as 18 inches of snow was possible when Colorado gets hit later Monday,
the National Weather Service said.
The worst conditions were expected early
Tuesday in areas south and east of Denver
and on the Eastern Plains.
The storm that originated in the Gulf of
Alaska could be a harbinger of El Nino, the
ocean-warming phenomenon thats predicted to bring heavy rain to the West in the
coming months, said Kathy Hoxsie of the
National Weather Service.
Its the beginning of the winter season,
she said. We want storms. We want rain.
Weve been projecting that were going to
have a wet winter and this is a sign that its
going to happen.
PG&E hit for flawed

documentation at Diablo Canyon

Monday that Pacific Gas and Electric Co.
changed a method it used to evaluate the
design of several Diablo Canyon plant components, without adequate justification to
the agency.
Around the world

Palestinian official: Gaza
border deal reached with Egypt
RAMALLAH, West Bank A senior
Palestinian official says the Palestinian
Authority has reached an agreement with
Egypt to reopen the Gaza Strips main border crossing, bypassing the territorys
Hamas rulers.
Azzam al-Ahmad, an aide to Palestinian
President Mahmoud Abbas, said Monday
the deal was recently reached in Cairo. He
said it aims to open the Rafah crossing to
the maximum possible to allow the movement of students, laborers, medical patients
and even commercial goods.
Such a deal could bring great relief to
Gaza, the borders of which are largely
sealed by an Israeli and Egyptian blockade.
It could also mark a setback for Hamas,
which seized control of Gaza from Abbas in
2007.
However, Hamas is giving the plan a cool
reception, raising questions about its viability.
There was no immediate Egyptian comment.
Around the state

The utility recognized the mistake in
2013 and made revisions.
Utility spokesman Blair Jones says
PG&E used a method approved by NRC, but
it was not sufficiently documented. He says
the violation did not challenge the seismic
safety of the plant.
Critics have long argued that PG&E has
underestimated the threat from nearby earthquake faults that werent recognized when
the plant near San Luis Obispo was initially
designed.

IS could ultimately force West to consider invasion

By Dan Perry
CAIRO This is the fundamental contradiction, after Paris: Few in the West want to
send ground troops to Syria and Iraq to battle the Islamic State group, but it may be
even harder to find anyone who thinks
airstrikes alone will defeat the radical
extremists.
So far, policy makers and experts tend to
focus on incremental steps, and indeed the
initial French response was more airstrikes.
President Barack Obama on Monday insisted
that the current strategy is ultimately is
going to work, and rejected any suggestion
that American soldiers should be deployed.
But if IS carries through with its threats of
further attacks on the West, such an
approach may soon be unsustainable, as
public pressure would demand action more
effective than the combination of airstrikes
and ground advances by a mix of local allies.
An international ground operation could
become conceivable, and would not necessarily rely on Americans a constellation
of nations, including Egypt, Iran, the Gulf,
Europe and Russia, has become increasingly
enraged at the jihadis.

That prospect doesnt faze the extremists.
In official statements and online chatter,
they even taunt the West to launch another
doomed crusade in the Middle East.
The narrative of a holy war against the
infidels is strong in radical Islamic circles.
While losing their territorial caliphate in
Syria and Iraq would be a setback in the short
term, a costly and bloody outside intervention also fuels the groups apocalyptic
appeal and could serve to convert yet more
Muslims to their cause.
And though the speedy liberation of the
town of Sinjar in recent days suggests IS
forces are far from invincible, a ground war
against them would not be easy.
An invasion of Syrias Raqqa and Iraqs
Mosul ISs main urban strongholds in
Syria and Iraq, respectively risks incurring huge losses both among ground
troops and civilians in block-by-block,
door-to-door, close-quarters combat like
that seen in grueling earlier U.S. battles for
Ramadi and Fallujah. The militants are
known to set up booby traps and IEDs for
their enemies and are likely to use civilians
as human shields.

U.S. increasing intel sharing with France
Paris attacks may

renew encryption debate
NEW YORK The deadly attacks
in Paris may soon reopen the debate
over whether and how tech
companies should let the government sidestep the data scrambling
that shields everyday commerce and
daily digital life alike.
So far, theres no hard evidence
that the Paris extremists relied on
encrypted communications
essentially, encoded digital messages that cant be read without the
proper digital keys to plan the
shooting and bombing attacks that
left 129 dead on Friday. But it
wouldnt be much of a surprise if
they did.
By Ken Dilanian
WASHINGTON The Obama

administration
announced
Monday a new intelligence-sharing arrangement with France
designed to more readily and
quickly allow joint military planning in the campaign against the
Islamic State.
After President Barack Obama
announced the arrangement to
reporters
in
Turkey,
the
Pentagon issued a statement saying that Defense Secretary Ash
Carter and Director of National
Intelligence James Clapper have
authorized military personnel to
share information quickly with
their French counterparts.

Pentagon spokesman Peter
Cook said the action was taken in
light of the terror attacks in Paris.
French warplanes bombed Islamic
State targets in Syria Sunday in
close cooperation with the U.S.
military.
Cook did not provide details
about the kinds of intelligence
that would be shared but said the
new instructions build on efforts
made over the past year to work
more closely with French military,
intelligence and security services
to target the Islamic State.
Current and former American
intelligence officials, speaking
on condition of anonymity
because they were not authorized
to discuss the matter publicly, said

Washington already maintains
extremely close counter terrorism
cooperation with Paris. The new
sharing mainly involves military
intelligence in Syria and Iraq, they
said. Bureaucratic hurdles slow the
exchange of such information,
even among allies.
The new arrangement would
allow the U.S. to share intelligence with France that previously
has been limited to whats known
as the Five Eyes of Englishspeaking countries the U.S.,
Britain, Canada, Australia and New
Zealand. The intelligence would
allow France to increase its ability
to identify and propose targets to
be hit by airstrikes, officials say.

Letters to the editor

two capitals for two groups of people.
The worlds policeman

Editor,
For those of you who believe the
United States should not be involved
in helping out the Middle East be it war
or migration, perhaps you are too
young or have forgotten another period in history.
This would take us back to World War
II. The United States (Franklin
Roosevelt was president) decided we
should not be involved in Germany and
Japans wars with other countries
around the world. It wasnt our business
was the way of thinking. It was only
when Japan bombed Hawaii that
President Roosevelt decided we would
become involved as the war affected us
directly.
Not that long ago, the United States
experienced 9/11. Once again, this led
us into involvement with a problem far
away from our country. The old saying
is You can pay now or pay later. The
writing is on the wall as we see terrorism spreading throughout the world.
No, we cannot be the worlds policeman. We need to make sure other countries step up around the world and do
their share. But, we cannot afford to
stand by and do nothing.

Attack on the West

Editor,
The correct word for what happened
so tragically in Paris is war, not terrorism. Some groups in the world were
called terrorists to defame their
cause, like the ANC and the IRA. This
Islamic violence is different, however,
because it is not targeted at just one
country like South Africa or the United
Kingdom. It is against all Western
nations.
Islam is a political religion, and its
origins are based upon how to govern.
This is why you have the Islamic
Republics of Iran and Saudi Arabia.
Some Muslims are not interested in
spreading the inuence of their faith
while others are, and those are the ones
that we need be concerned with. It is
the same way some Christians will
come knocking on your door to get
you to join their church and others
wontbother. These people aretesting
the Wests resolve to ght Islamic revolution. Their desire is to spread
Islamic idealogy throughout the world.
The way to stop them is to locate the
funders and planners of such attacks,
and understand what places are susceptible to their desire for maximum publicity (like airports, the Boston
Marathon, tourist resorts, important
holidays, government buildings etc.),
since all of these incidents have the
same commonality of shocking the
public conscience. Arrest or kill them
and defeat them, in which ever order is
most appropriate.

Revenge is not the answer

Editor,
The recent attacks by Islamic Arab
terrorists in Paris were horrendous and
cant be justied. But it is also true that
the Arab terror attacks in France do not
justify a disproportionate French
response.
Yet, exacerbating the cycle of violence, French president Hollande has
vowed revenge. And in a disproportionate response that shows no concern for innocent Arab civilians,
France has launched scores of sophisticated supersonic jets to bomb Raqqa,
the capital of the Islamic State. By
contrast, only eight militants allegedly attacked France, using suicide vests
and a few guns instruments of
oppressed people everywhere.
France needs to do more to halt the
cycle of violence. The rst step should
be a gesture to the Islamic State, such
as Frances immediate withdrawal from
Corsica, and an offer to share Paris as

Veterans Day: An
unfortunate irony
L
ast week, our nation honored the service of our men

and women in uniform in recognition of a national
holiday Veterans Day. Veterans Day is one of two
national holidays that commemorate our fallen heroes, the
other being Memorial Day.
Last year, my family and I paid respects to my
Grandfather Warren Madison a Vietnam veteran who
proudly served our beloved nation at the Memorial
Cemetery. Warren Madison served in the hard-fought battles
of Vietnam during the 1960s.
As we made our way up the Hill to his beloved spot of
rest, I placed a small U.S. ag and some owers on his
granite plot. After a brief moment of silence, I found myself
conicted in thought with respect to how our country honors our wounded heroes. Namely, I wrestled with the fact
that, while our nation designates two holidays to pay
respects to our brave men and women in uniform, we provide very little support for those who are in urgent need of
medical care and support services.
I have seen time and again
that our fallen comrades are
treated with little to no respect
with regard to their health and
stability following years of
patriotic service. Take for example the fact that, every 65 seconds, a vet commits suicide.
This is in large part due to our
nations inability to provide
effective treatment for our
wounded warriors, many of who
suffer from post-traumatic stress
disorder in addition to a multitude of physical ailments.
Jonathan Madison
Whats more, more than
573,000 of our wounded comrades are unemployed, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Beyond that, the Department of Veterans Affairs the
federal agency tasked with administering emergency assistance and services for our wounded heroes is signicantly underfunded and inadequately staffed. As a result, the VA
faces several challenges in providing quick and effective
treatment for veterans who need it most. Such inefciencies
often result in thousands of our patriots being mistreated
and forced to wait in long lines for urgent medical care.
In spite of this horric reality, nothing moves our spirits
to a more patriotic place than our recognition of the sacrices these beloved soldiers make on our behalf. Indeed,
there is nothing we could ever do to fully repay their fearless service. These courageous heroes continually sacrice
their lives for the preservation of our freedom. The least we
can do is provide basic necessities for their health and
longevity during and following their patriotic period of
service.
Needless to say, it is ironic that a nation that honors its
patriots with two national holidays cannot seem to muster
the support to provide basic necessities for the brave men
and women who have sacriced their lives for the preservation of our dear nation. Our wounded warriors deserve better
treatment than each of us. Sadly, this is not the case. Not
even close.
In spite of the consistent increases we see in our national
defense budget, we have continued to witness an embarrassingly limited amount of dollars designated to support our
fearless soldiers following their service. A recent CNN
investigation into the VA determined that our brave men
and women in uniform continue to wait months for care at
some VA facilities. The investigation also noted that a
federally funded report prepared for the VA released in
September concluded the agency remains plagued by problems including growing bureaucracy, stafng challenges
and unsustainable costs.
This Veterans Day, I pray each of us took a moment of
silence to honor our fallen heroes. Moving forward, let us
begin the work of restoring our commitment to our patriots
who have sacriced everything. Let us work together to
assist them in obtaining meaningful employment and treating their mental and physical battle wounds to the highest
degree. Above all, let us work to ensure that no veteran
goes to sleep hungry, thirsty or cold. At the very least, we
must provide them with the basic necessities of stability in
life.
One thing is certain. Our nation will continue to be in a
constant state of hypocrisy if we celebrate our veterans on
two national holidays without doing more to ensure that
our homeless, unemployed and medically impaired patriots
receive care. I hope you will stand with me in urging our
government to do more to assist the brave men and women
who sacrice their lives for our dear nation.

Leaders say no to Russian track at Rio Games

By Eddie Pells
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. Leaders of

the world anti-doping movement called for
Russian track athletes to be banned from next
years Olympics, saying Monday that the
nine-month window between now and the
Games isnt enough to ensure the program
and its athletes are clean.
The Institute of National Anti-Doping
Organizations (iNADO) will send its declaration to the World Anti-Doping Agency, which
holds its annual meetings this week in

Colorado Springs.
The iNADO leaders are responding to last
weeks report by an independent commission
that detailed corruption and rule-breaking
inside the Russian track team and the countrys anti-doping system.
The sports governing body, IAAF, has
provisionally suspended the track team.
While the Russian and International
Olympic Committees negotiate the countrys
return, the iNADO leaders, who represented
16 countries, said the Russian track team has-
nt demonstrated it can send a clean team to

the Olympics.
Were not convinced theres enough time
between now and then for them to clean up
their act, David Kenworthy, the chair of
iNADO and the UK Anti-Doping in Britain,
told The Associated Press.
As part of its declaration, iNADO also
wants WADA to devote at least as much
money to compliance as it does to research
something that falls in line with what the
independent-commission report recommended. The WADA budget comes in at around $26
million a year, funded half by the

International Olympic Committee and half
by governments around the world.
Currently, WADA gets the bulk of its information about the efficiency of a countrys
anti-doping program from questionnaires
filled out by policymakers in the countries
themselves.
Wed like to allow WADA to have the ability to robustly examine countries, rather than
rely on self-reporting, Kenworthy said.

TKAs Washington wows Tie goes to

Athlete of the Week
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Wow, was it a Rivalry Week of huge individual gains on the gridiron.

To cite just a few examples, Hillsdale running back Cameron Taylor rushed for 303 in
the Battle of the Fleas win over Aragon;
Capuchino tailback Damien Jacobs ran for
346 yards in the Mustangs Battle of the
Strip victory over Mills; and Wildcats quarterback Scudder Stockwell passed for 478
yards in Woodsides loss to Menlo-Atherton.
None of those, however, have anything on
the career night of The Kings Academy sophomore running back Maurice Washington III.
In an 11-man team sport like football, saying
one standout player does it all is obviously
hyperbole. Washington, though, came about
as close as one can get in Fridays 62-49 win
at Jefferson.
He had a little extra bounce to him (before
the game), TKA head coach Mike Johnson
Sr. said. He told me in pregame, he said,
Coach its going to be one of those games.
And I said, OK, Im going to give it to you.
And he delivered.
He sure did. Washington was a one-man
highlight reel, rushing for 402 yards on 18
carries with six touchdowns, which alone
cinched his being named Daily Journal
Athlete of the Week.
But the sophomore did so much more. He
also totaled 100 yards and a touchdown on
kickoff returns, and netted one 49-yard reception for a touchdown. He even punched in a
two-point conversion, giving him 50 total
points on the night. And just for style
points, he completed his first ever varsity
pass on a 10-yard option play.
All told, Washington gained 461 total
yards, 539 all-purpose yards and eight touchdowns.
I didnt realize what I did until after,
Washington said. But I realized during the
game I was really in the zone.
Washington said the extra bounce he
brought to the field was a culmination of a
really tough week. And, for personal reasons,
he almost didnt play Friday. The Knights

he Crystal Springs boys and

girls cross country teams are no
strangers to Central Coast
Section success. Both teams won CCS
titles in 2014 and were expected to be in
the running (no pun intended) for the
team titles this season.
But no one could have predicted the
roller coasters that were the CCS
Division 5 girls
and boys championship races. When
the dust nally settled and the math
was checked several
times, both Crystal
Springs teams were
declared repeat
champions winning on a tiebreaker each time.
Last year, we
were favorites to
win, said Crystal Springs cross country
coach Albert Caruana. This year [on the
boys side] there were denitely two
teams who would be tough St. Francis
(Watsonville) and York. The girls, we
knew it would be us and Woodside Priory,
and it would be super close.
Caruana nailed it on both counts. The
girls race was rst and was won by
Priorys Hana Marshek, but team titles
are won by nish, not time. In cross
country scoring, teams are awarded
points based on where a person nishes
in a race. The rst-place nisher earns
one point, the second-place nisher
regardless of how far she nishes behind
the winner gets two points and so on.
After ve runners nished, the teams were
tied with 62 points each. The tie was broken by the sixth-fastest runner on each
team. Crystal Springs Sophie Lawrence

49ers sticking with Gabbert under center for now

By Janie McCauley
SANTA CLARA San Franciscos starting quarterback might be a week-by-week

decision for coach Jim Tomsula, yet he is
noncommittal on what might happen next
week after Sundays game at Seattle.
Blaine Gabbert is the guy for now as he
makes a second straight start after leading
the 49ers to a 17-16 win against Atlanta on
Nov. 8 ahead of the teams bye week. He will
try to find a rhythm against the Seahawks
this weekend at CenturyLink Field that previous starter Colin Kaepernick has not.
Its going to be a true

test going to Seattle and
see how he does in that
environment, said center Daniel Kilgore,
returning from injury to
practice this week. I
think hell do great.
Tomsula met with the
Blaine Gabbert quarterbacks last week
before players departed
for their extended break, letting them know
he would stay with Gabbert for now, then
spoke about the decision in his news conference Monday.
When asked whether he would have a

weekly meeting with the QBs to discuss the
plan, Tomsula didnt exactly say, offering,
Well, yes and no. San Francisco (3-6) will
host NFC West-leading Arizona on Nov. 29.
As far as Blaine, I like what Blaine did, I
like where hes at. Were going to continue
with Blaine, Tomsula said. Blaine did a
nice job and I liked where he was, I liked the
way he handled the game, I liked the way he
played the game. Move forward with Blaine,
and well go from there.
A month after a 20-3 loss to rival Seattle
at Levis Stadium, the 49ers must play in
one of the leagues loudest venues, where
the Seahawks (4-5) lost 39-32 to the firstplace Cardinals (7-2) on Sunday.
Blaine, hes been in this position before
coming from Jacksonville, said Kilgore,
whose 21-day window to return to the active
roster began Monday after a second leg surgery this past summer. Hes dealt with
adversity, whereas Kap, he had a lot of success at the beginning of his career. Theyre
both doing a great job right now, Kap handling the situation, whatever you can call it,
Blaine stepping in taking control of what
he has to do, what his role is.

Texans backup QB hands Bengals first loss

By Joe Kay
CINCINNATI The Texans were the perfect team to give the Bengals their first loss
on their home field in a big Monday
night game, no less. They have a way of
doing this to them especially if T.J.
Yates is running the offense.
Yates took over in the third quarter after
Brian Hoyer sustained a concussion and led
Houston to a 10-6 victory on Monday
night, throwing the touchdown pass that
knocked the Bengals out of the ranks of the
NFLs unbeaten.
The Bengals (8-1) were trying to make
NFL history and join New England and
Carolina at 9-0 theres never been such a
trio. A backup quarterback with a history of
beating them got in the way.
Yates beat them twice as a rookie during
the 2011 season, including a first-round
playoff win that was the Texans first-ever
in the postseason. That experience helped
get him through his impromptu performance on Monday night.
Its a little nostalgic, said Yates, who
went 5 of 11 for 69 yards.

I have a lot of good
memories
in
Cincinnati.
And now, another one.
Cincinnati contained
some of the NFLs top
quarterbacks while getting off to the best start
in club history. Yates
T.J. Yates
was something else. And
so was the Texans defense, which looked
awfully familiar as well.
The Texans (4-5) made Andy Dalton look
bad during first-round playoff wins over the
Bengals during the 2011 and 2012 seasons.
J.J. Watt returned an interception for a
touchdown in that breakthrough playoff win
in 2011.
The Texans were all over Dalton again on
Monday night.
I feel like its 2011, said Watt, who had
one of the three sacks of Dalton. Im pretty excited. This is an incredible team.
And no longer an unbeaten team, thanks
in large measure to Yates.
Yates ended his first drive with a 22-yard
touchdown pass to DeAndre Hopkins, who

made a one-handed catch in the end zone for
the games only TD.
I cant say enough about T.J. doing what
he did, Watt said. I think every time we
come into this stadium, he should be our
quarterback.
Dalton had another tough time against a
Texans defense, going 21 of 37 for 187
yards with an interception and three sacks.
Cincinnatis final chance slipped away
when A.J. Green made a catch for what would
have been a first down at the Texan 23-yard
line, then was stripped of the ball by
Quintin Demps with 40 seconds left.
I had both hands on the ball and I took
one off to break my fall and he ripped it
out, Green said. I was trying to break my
fall.
Well be all right. Its tough to lose. Not
everything is going to be pretty.
Yates touchdown pass decided a lackluster
game by both offenses.
The Bengals led 6-3 after a first half that
was filled with penalties and missed plays.

Since joining the varsity ranks at TKA,

Washington surged to the Peninsula Athletic
League Ocean Division regular-season rushing title. Washington totaled 1,701 ground
yards, edging Taylor of Hillsdale, who gained

Its just one facet of TKAs dynamically
balanced offensive attack. Freshman quarterback Michael Johnson Jr. ranked third in the
PAL Ocean Division with 1,863 passing

yards. And Smith led the league with 697
receiving yards.
For us, it all starts with the running
game, Johnson Sr. said. If were running
the ball well, we do everything well. And for
[Johnson Jr.] being a freshman, Maurice
really helps take the pressure off.
Washington too has been a starter since
the outset of his freshman year, and led a balanced Knights ground attack. As a team in

Raiders remain confident
despite back-to-back losses
SPORTS
By Josh Dubow
ALAMEDA The Oakland

Raiders have lost back-to-back
games, not their confidence.
The mood after Sundays home
loss to Minnesota was more of a
missed opportunity than a lost
season after the 30-14 defeat left
Oakland with a losing record and
ground to make up in the playoff
chase.
That followed a last-second 3835 loss in Pittsburgh as the
Raiders (4-5) have dropped two in
a row after consecutive wins over
San Diego and the New York Jets
put them in the lead of the AFC
wild-card race.
You have to own what was,
understand where it needs to be better and work toward it, coach Jack
Del Rio said. Theres no time to
sit around and feel sorry for yourself. You cant dwell on the posi-
tive or negative too long. You have

to move onto the next weeks work
and thats what were going to do.
There was plenty of blame for
this latest loss. The offense generated very little other than back-toback touchdown drives in the second quarter. The defense struggled
to contain Adrian Peterson for
most of the game and the special
teams allowed a momentumchanging kickoff return for a
touchdown
by
Cordarrelle
Patterson.
We had our shot, Del Rio said.
We had opportunities in that
game, and in each of the three
phases we didnt do well enough to
get the win. I think its clear that
there were opportunities and they
were the better team yesterday.
The Raiders are tied with Kansas
City and Miami in the AFC playoff
race, a game behind sixth-place
Buffalo and the New York Jets in

just 142 total yards, fewer than the
164 they had on Thanksgiving
night last year and their worst total
since 133 yards against the
Vikings on Nov. 5, 2006.
Kaepernick dropped to 1-6 in
seven starts against Seattle with
three touchdown passes to nine
interceptions and 24 sacks, including the NFC championship game
loss in January 2014.
The 49ers have lost four in a row

RUSSIA
Over the weekend, IOC president Thomas Bach and the head
of the Russian Olympic Committee, Alexander Zhukov,
reached agreement on a roadmap for Russia to follow to
become compliant with rules of the IAAF and WADA. No time
frame was set. Bach said all the implicated coaches, doctors
and athletes would have to serve their sanctions, and a top-tobottom reform of Russias track and field program would have
to take place.
The iNADO leaders have no confidence all that can happen
before Aug. 12, 2016 the day track and field starts at the Rio
Olympics.
If they can achieve that by 2016, great, Kenworthy said.
But we just feel they cant, because of the damage thats been
done to both their systems and to their credibility. If youve
got to start from scratch, it takes years. Its not something
that just takes six months.
WADA has already declared Russias anti-doping laboratory
out of compliance. On Wednesday, WADAs Foundation Board
is expected to suspend the Russian anti-doping agency. WADA
doesnt have direct say in the eligibility of Russias track
team. That falls under the jurisdiction of tracks governing
body, the IAAF, which itself is being investigated by the independent commission.
Kenworthy said its important to get the anti-doping
process back up and running in Russia immediately, whether
on a caretaker or permanent basis. The iNADO members said
their agencies would be available to help Russia with its testing program while it is being revamped.
What you cant do there is just leave a vacuum, he said.

nished with 21 points; Priorys Emma
Jaeger had 27 points.
The Gryphons won the title.
Which in and of itself would have been
great, as far as Caruana was concerned.
They didnt announce anything (at
rst), Caruana said. Then I heard its a tie
and we won by tiebreaker. I said, Well, at
least were going to win one (CCS title). I
knew the boys (race) would be super
tough.
But not impossible. The Gryphons boys
team put together a strong run and just as
Caruana predicted, the nal score was close.
He said the announcers at the meet said
unofcial results showed St. FrancisWatsonville winning the title.
After all, St. Francis swept the top-three
spots on the podium.
Caruana said he saw the St. Francis team
begin to celebrate. He said he was on his
computer, trying to get the most up-to-date
info about the race. He knew, being as close
as it was, that things could change by the
second.
It shows up (on my monitor) and I see
our team name rst, Caruana said.
It was conrmed minutes later as they
called out the top three nishers: York in
third and St. Francis-Watsonville in second.
Turns out the Division 5 boys race also
needed to be decided by tiebreaker. Also by
the sixth-fastest runner.
Guess who won the tiebreaker?
Craig Virgin, a two-time cross country
SPORTS
world champion and member of three United
States Olympic teams, was at the race in
Belmont. Now a motivational speaker,
Virgin gave a speech at Crystal Springs in
the days leading up to the CCS championships.
He said hes never seen anything like
this. Two teams, from the same school,
winning championships on tiebreakers,
Caruana said. People were coming up to
me saying they couldnt believe it.
Now the Gryphons have two weeks to
prepare for the state meet Nov. 28 at
Woodward Park in Fresno. Its nothing new
for Crystal Springs. The girls team has
qualied for the Division 5 eld at the state
meet for the 12th straight year. Its eight in
a row for the boys. The girls nished second at the state meet in 2005 and the boys
have twice nished 10th.
Its pretty tough. Its always humbling
to go there, Caruana said. I think we
could potentially [nish in the top 10], but
there are a whole bunch other schools
thinking the same thing.

You wont nd too many Burlingame students hanging out with their peers from San
Mateo during Rivalry Week, but everyone
found that all barriers can be overcome
through music.
Members of both the San Mateo and
Burlingame choirs came together Saturday
morning to perform one of the best renditions of the Star-Spangled Banner I have
ever heard. I even turned around to make
sure what I was hearing was actually live
and not a recording.
I hear the national anthem a lot just
because of the nature of my job. There will
be times I stand for the anthem two or three
THE DAILY JOURNAL
times in a day as I cover various games.

Ive heard a rainbow of styles and renditions, heard the Whitney Houston Super
Bowl recording hundreds of times. Ive even
heard the crowd continue the song after the
microphone or speaker system broke.
I have never heard anyone straight butcher the song and very rarely have I heard
someone fumble over the lines when
singing live. There have been some offtune moments, but I think most people who
sing it live give our national anthem the
respect and reverence it deserves.
But I have never heard anyone do it better
than what that combo choir did prior to the
kickoff of the Little Big Game.

Half Moon Bay announced Claire
Rietmann-Grout as the schools new varsity
softball coach. Rietmann-Grout, a Half
Moon Bay native and a 2004 MercyBurlingame grad, replaces Deanna RochaTowers and will be only the third coach
since 1984. Naomi Patridge retired in 2010
after 27 years coaching Half Moon Bay.
Rietmann-Grout helped lead the MercyBurlingame softball team to the Central
Coast Section Division IV seminals her
senior year, falling to top-seeded Notre
Dame-Salinas 8-1. She went on to play in
college, beginning her career at Towson
University and nishing it at Cal State
Northridge in 2009.
A press release from the school said she
spent time with the Wil Devils in the Swiss
National Softball League before embarking
on her high school coaching career.
Rietmann-Grout has spent the last ve
years coaching in Southern California, the
last two as head coach for the HarvardWestlake team in Studio City, compiling an
overall record of 12-27-1. The three years

prior to that appointment, she coached at
Immaculate Heart School in Los Angeles,
where she was 38-29.
Half Moon Bay has made the Central
Coast Section playoffs the last four years,
reaching the 2013 Division III nals. Last
year, the Cougars were 16-13 overall and 77 in the Peninsula Athletic League Bay
Division, which was good for a four-way tie
for third.

Transplant gives new face, scalp to burned firefighter

By Malcolm Ritter
NEW YORK A volunteer firefighter

badly burned in a 2001 blaze has received
the most extensive face transplant ever,
covering his skull and much of his neck,
a New York hospital announced Monday.
The surgery took place in August at the
NYU Lan g o n e Medi cal Cen t er. Th e
patient, 41-year-old Patrick Hardison, is
still undergoing physical therapy at the
hospital but plans to return home to
Sen at o b i a, Mi s s i s s i p p i , i n t i me fo r
Thanksgiving.
The surgery has paved the way for him
to regain normal vision, and in an interview last week he said that will let him
accomplish a major goal: Ill start driving again.
More than two dozen face transplants
have been performed worldwide since the
first one in France in 2005. Dr. Eduardo
Rodriguez, who led the surgical team that
did Hardisons transplant and recently
wro t e a rev i ew o f t h e fi el d, s ai d
Hardisons is by far the most extensive
performed successfully in terms of the

amount of tissue transferred.
The transplant extends from the top of
the head, over Hardisons skull and down
to the collarbones in front; in back, it
reaches far enough down that only a tiny
patch of Hardisons original hair remains
its color matched by the dark blond
hair growing on his new scalp. The transplant includes both ears.
Its a historic achievement, said Dr.
Amir Dorafshar, co-director of the face
transplant program at the Johns Hopkins
University School of Medicine, who was
not involved in the operation. This type
of treatment option will potentially revo l ut i o n i ze t h e care o f p at i en t s wi t h
severe facial burn injuries.
The surgery began Aug. 14 and lasted
26 hours. It left no scars on Hardisons
new face because the seam of the transplanted tissue runs down the back of his
skull.

PARIS
community is still too divided and too incoherent.
As he spoke, thousands gathered around
candlelit memorials at the Place de la
Republique square and beneath the Eiffel
Tower, which like many top attractions in
one of the worlds most-visited cities
reopened for business Monday in a defiant
spirit. The tower was bathed in red, white
and blue floodlights of the French tricolor,
with the citys centuries-old slogan
Tossed but not sunk, suggesting an
unsinkable city braving stormy seas projected in white lights near its base.
French and other Western intelligence
agencies face an urgent challenge to track
down the surviving members of the three
Islamic State units who inflicted the
unprecedented bloodshed in France and, perhaps more importantly, to target their distant commanders in IS-controlled parts of
Syria.
A French security official said anti-terror
intelligence officials had identified
Abdelhamid Abaaoud, a Belgian of
Moroccan descent, as chief architect of the
Friday the 13th attacks on a rock concert, a
soccer game and popular nightspots in one
of Paris trendiest districts.
The official cited chatter from IS figures
that Abaaoud had recommended a concert as
an ideal target for inflicting maximum casualties, as well as electronic communications
between Abaaoud and one of the Paris
attackers who blew himself up.
The official spoke on condition of
anonymity to discuss the sensitive investigation.
Abaaoud came to public attention last year
by boasting in an IS propaganda video
about his pride in piling the dead bodies of
infidel enemies into a trailer. Anti-terror
agencies previously linked him to a series
of abortive shooting plots this year in
Belgium and France, including a planned

French Interior Minister Bernard
Cazeneuve said police seized a Kalashnikov
assault rifle, three automatic pistols and a
bulletproof vest from a suspected arms dealer with jihadist sympathies, and a rocket
launcher and other military-grade gear from
his parents home.
But police have yet to announce the capture of anyone suspected of direct involvement in Fridays slaughter. Seven attackers
died six after detonating suicide belts and
a seventh from police gunfire but Iraqi
intelligence officials told The Associated
Press that its sources indicated 19 participated in the attack and five others provided
hands-on logistical support.
French police accidentally permitted the
suspected driver of one group of gunmen,
26-year-old Salah Abdeslam, to avoid arrest
at the border Saturday and cross to his native
Belgium. On Monday, Belgian police in
balaclavas, gas masks and body armor raided Abdeslams suspected hideout in the
Molenbeek district of Brussels but came out
empty-handed.
Abdeslams brother, Brahim, was among
the suicide bombers and killed one civilian
after blowing himself up outside a restaurant. Police in Molenbeek arrested another
brother, Mohamed, but freed him Monday
without charge.
After he left police custody, Mohamed
Abdeslam told reporters that his family
couldnt believe that both of his brothers
were jihadists. He said all three siblings
grew up in Belgium and seemingly were content with life in the West.
I have not been involved in any way with
what happened on Friday the 13th in Paris.
We are an open-minded family. We never had
any problem with justice, he said.
He said he didnt know where his brother
Salah was or whether he would surrender to
police, and expressed familial loyalty to
him despite his shock over the mass
killings. You have to understand that we
have a family, we have a mom, and he
remains her child, he said.
Determined to root out jihadists within
French communities, Hollande said he
would present a bill Wednesday seeking to
extend a state of emergency granting the
police and military greater powers of search
and arrest, and local governments the right
to ban demonstrations and impose curfews
for another three months.
REFUGEE
Muslim sentiment reminiscent of the 9/11
era, as much as keeping open the pathway
for refugees.
Americas vision of itself as a welcoming
destination for the displaced was colliding
with its recent memories of devastation
caused by terrorists, all part of a quandary
over what to do about the masses of people
escaping the brutality of the Syrian conflict, perhaps with radicals in their midst.
On Monday:
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott ordered his
states refugee resettlement program not to
accept any more Syrians, and some other
Republican governors including two
GOP presidential contenders, John Kasich
of Ohio and Bobby Jindal of Louisiana
announced or suggested they were suspending cooperation with Washington on the
program, at least until assured the newcomers were being vetted effectively for security
risks. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie of
New Jersey, also a presidential candidate,
said not even orphans under 5 should be
let in because the government cant be trusted to check people properly.
Republican lawmakers called for suspension of the federal Syrian refugee program
and threatened to try to stop it in legislation
that must pass by Dec. 11 to keep the government running. New House Speaker Paul
Ryan neither endorsed nor ruled out that
course.
Other Republican presidential candidates, already skeptical if not hostile to the
refugee-welcoming plan before the attacks,
stepped up their rhetoric against it. Donald
Trump said that, rather than allowing
refugees into the country, the U.S. should
build a big, beautiful safe zone in Syria
where refugees can wait out their brutal civil
war. Hed been among the first to warn that
the refugee crisis could represent a Trojan
horse with terrorists infiltrating the ranks
of innocent refugees.
THE DAILY JOURNAL

Calls by GOP rivals Ted Cruz and Jeb
Bush to give preference to Christian
refugees from Syria prompted a sharp
rebuke from Obama. Shameful, he said.
We dont have a religious test for our compassion.
Democratic presidential candidate Bernie
Sanders expressed support for Obamas
position. We will not turn our back on
refugees, the Vermont senator said at a campaign event in Cleveland.
At the heart of the debate is the Obama
administrations decision to raise the
nations annual limit of 70,000 refugees by
10,000, with most of the new slots for
Syrians, in the budget year that started Oct.
1.
That potential Syrian influx pales in comparison with the masses coming to Europe
and those being accepted elsewhere.
Canada, with just more than one-tenth of the
U.S. population, plans to take in 25,000
Syrians in the next few months.
But indications that at least one of the
attackers who killed 129 people in Paris
may have crossed into France with refugees
have given critics of Obamas plan a footing to demand a cutoff.
Until we can sort out the bad guys, we
must not be foolish, Republican presidential contender Ben Carson said after a
Nevada campaign swing Monday. And he
said of Syrians already in the U.S., I would
watch them very carefully.
Like Trump and others in the GOP race,
Carson was critical of the resettlement program before Paris came under assault. But
the attacks were persuasive to some who had
been more open to the idea or on the fence.
Its not that we dont want to, its that we
cant, said one of them, Florida Sen. Marco
Rubio.
Bush, too, altered his tone, asserting the
focus ought to be on the Christians who
have no place in Syria anymore, because
theyre being beheaded, theyre being executed by both sides. Before the attacks, he
had spoken of moderate Muslims also being
slaughtered in Syria, when arguing that the
U.S. had a responsibility to protect them, as
well.

Rare TB case shows difficulty

diagnosing, treating children
By Lauran Neergaard
While some women use marijuana during or after pregnancy to ease nausea, chronic pain or
depression, there are alternatives without the potential risks.
AMA: Pot use in pregnancy may

be harmful, warnings needed
By Lindsey Tanner
CHICAGO Warning: Marijuana use during pregnancy and breast-feeding poses

potential harms.
That message would be written on medical
and recreational marijuana products and
posted wherever theyre sold if the nations
most influential doctors group has its way.
The American Medical Association agreed
Monday to push for regulations requiring
such warnings be written on medical and
recreational pot products and posted wherever theyre sold. The decision was made
based on studies suggesting marijuana use
may be linked with low birth weight, premature birth and behavior problems in
young children.
Critics say evidence of harm is weak, but
while advocates agree that more research is
needed, they say erring on the side of caution makes sense.
Some studies have linked marijuana use in
pregnancy with childhood attention problems and lower scores on problem-solving
measures. THC, the main active ingredient
in marijuana, has been found in the milk of
women who use it while breastfeeding, and
some data suggests the drug can affect the
quality and quantity of breast milk, the
AMAs new policy says.
There are similar warnings for alcohol and
tobacco, so why not do the same thing
with marijuana since it is the most commonly used illicit drug during pregnancy,
said Dr. Diana Ramos, a Los Angeles physician with the American College of
Obstetricians and Gynecologists, which
proposed the warnings at an AMA policymaking meeting in Atlanta.
Theres much more scientific evidence of
harm from alcohol and tobacco than from
marijuana, but marijuana has not been
proven safe to use during pregnancy or
breast-feeding.
The AMA voted to adopt the proposal,
meaning its now on AMAs lobbying agenda.
In advice issued earlier this year against
marijuana use during pregnancy, the OBGYN group cited data putting use during
pregnancy at about 5 percent nationwide,
but as high as 28 percent among some urban
low-income women.
Ramos said getting the AMA on board
really gives power to the proposal. She
said the ultimate goal is a federal requirement for warning signs, but because marijuana use is illegal under federal law, the policy seeks local and state measures.
While some women use the drug during or
after pregnancy to ease nausea, chronic pain
or depression, there are alternatives without
the potential risks, said Dr. Judy Chang, an
associate OB-GYN professor at the
University of Pittsburgh who studies substance abuse in pregnancy.
WASHINGTON When a 2-year-old

returned sick from a visit to India, U.S. doctors suspected tuberculosis even though
standard tests said no. It would take three
months to confirm she had an extreme form
of the disease a saga that highlights the
desperate need for better ways to fight TB in
youngsters in countries that cant afford
such creative care.
Drug-resistant tuberculosis is a global
health threat, and its particularly challenging for young children who are harder even
to diagnose, much less treat.
Doctors at Johns Hopkins Childrens
Center are reporting how they successfully
treated one of the few tots ever diagnosed in
the U.S. with the worst kind extensively
drug-resistant TB, or XDR-TB, thats impervious to a list of medicines.
This was so difficult, even when we had
all these resources, said Hopkins pediatric
TB specialist Dr. Sanjay Jain, who coauthored the report being published Monday
in The Lancet Infectious Diseases. The child
now is 5 and healthy, but Jain calls the case
a wake-up call to the realities of TB.
Tuberculosis is a bacterial infection that
usually strikes the lungs, spreading through
coughs and sneezes. A recent World Health
Organization report says TB sickened nearly 10 million people worldwide in 2014,
including 1 million children. Thats double
earlier child estimates, reflecting some
countries better counts. Many experts suspect the toll is still higher because children
in hard-hit countries can die undiagnosed.
In much of the world, doctors dont have
anything like a CT scan to use to help them
with this. They just have to use a stethoscope and a scale and their clinical judgment, said Dr. Anna Mandalakas, director
of the global tuberculosis program at Texas
Childrens Hospital and Baylor College of
Medicine.
The Hopkins patient, who wasnt identified, returned from a three-month family trip
to India with a high fever. A battery of tests
yielded no diagnosis, and no relatives were
sick. But X-rays and CT scans found clues, a
spot on her lung and some enlarged lymph

nodes.
To diagnose adults, doctors check their
sputum for TB germs. Children, especially
younger than 5, dont harbor nearly as much
bacteria and tots tend to swallow rather
than cough out the mucus, Jain explained.
Suspicious doctors threaded a tube into the
girls stomach for samples, so a lab could
try to grow and identify any bacteria lurking
in them.
Meanwhile, the child was prescribed four
standard TB drugs. Her fever broke, and she
gained weight changes that in many TBstricken countries would signal successful
treatment. But X-rays showed persistent
lung inflammation. And after a month,
workers finally detected slow-growing TB
germs in one of those lab samples, something to use for more complex testing.
Confirmation that she had the scary XDRTB came 12 weeks after the girls initial
exam, Jain said. Three of the four drugs she
was taking didnt work. Her fever roared
back, lung tissue began dying. Doctors
switched her to five different, riskier, medications but had no fast way to monitor if
they were working.
So Jain tried something experimental,
stemming from his research on using special low-radiation CT scans to track infections. A scan showed her lungs were starting
to clear weeks into the new therapy. She was
declared in remission after 18 months of
treatment, and continues to be healthy.
Drug-resistant strains of TB are on the
rise, especially in India, China and Africa.
The hardest-to-treat XDR form is very rare in
the U.S., where patients are isolated from
the public while being treated to prevent the
strains spread. The Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention counts 74 XDR-TB
cases since 1993, two in children under 5.
The Hopkins case offers a lesson for hardhit countries, that children may harbor
resistant TB even if they seem to improve
shortly after beginning standard treatment,
Mandalakas said.
Beyond the challenge of diagnosis in
children, few TB medications come in pediatric doses, forcing health workers or parents to chop or crush pills.

BELMONT
City planners and staff say Belmont
has stringent and subjective regulations
concerning single-family home remodels. Because of the controversy concerning the amendments, the city is now
seeking a transparent process that
encourages public feedback, according
to Community Development Director
Carlos de Melo. The input gathered at the
workshop and future meetings will be
used to inform the updates that seek to
establish a more objective remodel
process, according to de Melo.
Its the second go-round for the amendments since the group Ask Belmont
Citizens gathered more than 2,000 signatures to overturn the changes
approved early this year after the
Planning Commission and City Council
held several public hearings.
In opting to rescind the ordinances
instead of placing them for a vote Nov.
3, the council outlined a public outreach
plan to engage a broader section of the
community. It includes the workshop, a
flier mailed to all Belmont households,
more information posted online and
future hearings during Parks and
Recreation as well as Planning
Commission and council meetings.
The interactive, facilitator-led workshop will provide an opportunity for
people to share their thoughts and ideas
on how to improve the citys ordinances, said Councilman Charles Stone.
Im excited that were getting additional community input and hopeful that
the interactive community workshop
will elicit additional new ideas and perspectives. This workshop is going to be
TOXINS
lead to construction of a school, ensuring student safety is a primary concern
for the charter school, David Kuizenga,
Bay Area vice president of Rocketship
Education, said in an email.
The health and safety of our students
is our top priority. We do environmental
testing on all our schools and are well
aware of the environmental concerns
with this particular site, he said. We
have been in open and ongoing conversations with the city and county planners from the moment we began seriously considering the site.
Traces of benzene, dichloroethene,
trichloroethylene and vinyl chloride
have all been detected at the site, which
could potentially contaminate the air
and soil at the property, according to the
California Water Resources Control
Board website.
According to the U.S. Department of
Labor, those who have sustained exposure to benzene, which is used to manu-
an excellent opportunity for stakeholders to get educated and give feedback at

the same time, Stone said in an email.
Yet members of ABC remain concerned
the city is plowing ahead and isnt heeding their suggestions.
According to their website, ABC members advocate for a bottom-up process
that first identifies any problems with
the ordinances, prioritizes the issues,
then breaks them down into categories.
They seek a solution-oriented approach
based on facts and an analysis of the
potential impacts.
The group also sought an advisory
committee that included members of the
public, however, the council opted
against the suggestion when it outlined
the process in August.
Kristin Mercer, ABC member and former planning commissioner, said shes
not sure what to expect but hopes the
city wont cram all of the varied topics
into one meeting.
That was one of the foundations of
the referendum petition; that its far too
much material to be addressed as one big
topic, Mercer said, adding theyd like
separate meetings on each of the five or
so core categories.
The meeting is close to Thanksgiving
and many members of ABC are unable to
attend the meeting, she added. However,
the group submitted a list of questions
and request for information about what
the root problems are and how many
homes would be affected by changes.
Mercer and ABC member Daniel Pierce
said they hope the city wont use the
meeting solely to promote changes officials have already decided upon, but will
listen and incorporate public input.
Im hoping well see some actual
open-minded, objective willingness
to look at the issues instead of immediately jumping to their proposed
solutions, Mercer said.

Im concerned about there only being
one meeting and Im concerned that its a
quote, unquote workshop, but its not, as
far as I can tell, an opportunity to get
public input. It seems more like an
opportunity for the council and staff to
defend what theyre already planning to
do, Pierce said.
Even after Wednesdays workshop, the
public will have opportunities to comment further about the amendments during Planning as well as Parks and
Recreation commission meetings, and
City Councils review of the amendments early next year.
Stone said the city has heard from a
variety of people, many who support the
measures. The workshop will help distinguish a balanced approach to ease the
process for those seeking to accommodate growing families while tending to
the concerns of other residents, Stone
said.
Over the last year, weve received a
lot of support for updating single family
home remodel/addition rules and the tree
ordinance, but weve heard some objections as well. Ill be listening to hear
folks objectives, not just their objections, so that council can make sure the
rules are tailored to meet those objectives without unnecessarily and unreasonably constraining home owners and
growing families, Stone said. Im confident we can clear up some of the confusion over the councils proposals over
the next several months and end up with
some greatly improved ordinances.
facture plastics, detergents, pesticides

and other chemicals, have contracted
leukemia and died. Other symptoms
include drowsiness, dizziness and
unconsciousness.
Dichloroethene and trichloroethlylene are also potential carcinogens
which can be hazardous to humans,
known to cause skin irritation, lung
damage and harm to the cardiovascular
system in some instances, among other
potential health issues, according to the
website. Vinyl chloride is commonly
used to make plastic pipes as well as
wire and cable coatings, which can lead
to respiratory damage, as well as loss of
consciousness plus lung and kidney irritation, among other concerns, according to the Environmental Protection
Agency website.
Horrigan said no plan to mitigate the
potential health hazards has been developed yet, as the property owner is still
addressing the issue with the state
Department of Toxic Substance
Control.
Rocketship Education just joined the
district this year, and is currently splitting its students between Taft and
Hoover elementary schools, while
working toward constructing its own

site. Murphy noted the soil contaminants were identified when the charter
first applied to join the district.
In coming to the district, the charter
planned to build its own school, but the
environmental concerns may have
slowed that process.
Kuizenga said the district is waiting to
hear what sorts of mitigations the property owner and state department will
agree on before proceeding with the
school development.
He said school officials will err on the
side of safety prior to attempting to
move forward with the school construction.
We remain committed to opening a
new, high-quality elementary school
that the Fair Oaks Community can call
their own, he said. But we will never
consider building a school that does not
meet our strict safety requirements for
our students health and well-being.
Rocketship education is one of two
charters which joined the district this
year. KIPP Excelencia Academy recently
opened on the campus of John F.
Kennedy Middle School as well.
The community workshop begins 6

p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 16, on the second
