Sometimes you have to spend money to make money. At least thats the thinking behind a recommendation to grant nearly $2.2 million to a variety of county programs that could generate savings of more than $2.69 million in their rst year. The Board of Supervisors must still sign off on the proposals but its nance and operations subcommit-
tee this week gave the green light to nine of 16 departmental applicants ranging from digitizing prosecution les to targeting highCarole Groom risk, high-cost Health System clients to increase reimbursements. Auto fleet management will be automated under one proposal while
another calls for off-site computerbased testing of work applicants. The grant program is called SMCSAVES, an 18-month, $5 million effort open to any department that can use the money for startup projects to decrease expenses or raise revenue. The one-time money cant be used for existing expenses but departments were allowed to apply to expand current programs if they generate measurable savings. The idea is for the county not just to cut its way to reducing the struc-
tural decit but implement ongoing methods that save or make money. The program places no minimum or maximum amounts awarded. They are all very valuable and worthy. You can tell the departments worked hard on them, said Carole Groom, president of the Board of Supervisors and member of its nance and operations subcommittee. The subcommittee took a look at the recommendations and agreed to forward them all to the full board.
The supervisors are expected to take a nal vote on the recommended proposals at a meeting in November with the funds released in January for work to be done by June 30, 2013. Groom was particularly excited by the plans that cut out paper through technology, such as plans being stored on thumb drives rather than large rolls of blueprints. Planning Director Jim Eggemeyer

San Mateo Parks and Recreation commissioners visited the site of a 12-acre park to be constructed at Bay Meadows Phase II.Roads are in place and construction is set to start in 2012.
Developers are being sought to build the rst round of housing for the second phase of the Bay Meadows project in San Mateo that will eventually see more than 1,100 units of rental and for-sale properties on the 83-acre site. A request for proposals by Wilson Meany Sullivan is seeking a builder for 156 townhomes, just south of where a 12-acre commu-
nity park will be constructed, said Janice Thacher, project manager with WMS. Construction should start in 2012, Thacher told a group of Parks and Recreation commissioners during a tour of the site last week. The commissioners visited the site to weigh in on the last details of a large community park that will eventually be deeded to the city to manage. The high-density transit-oriented development, tucked between the Hillsdale and Hayward Park Caltrain stations east of El
Camino Real, will also feature more than 715,000 square feet of ofce space and 93,000 square feet of space set aside for retail. So far, WMS has leveled the former horse race track to construct the beginning infrastructure for the project, including roads, landscaping, lighting and a pond. The parks segment of the project has been in the works since 2005 and the commission gave its last recommendations to WMS last

Singer Paul McCartney and his bride Nancy Shevell are showered in confetti as they leave after their marriage ceremony at Old Marylebone Town Hall in London Sunday.
Gone was the memory of McCartneys terribly unhappy marriage to Heather Mills, which ended in 2008 in an ugly public divorce. Remembered was his marriage to Eastman, a serene union that lasted nearly three decades until her life was cut short by breast cancer, leaving McCartney alone and adrift despite his fame and wealth. The ceremony Sunday afternoon was everything his wedding to Mills was not: simple, understated, almost matter of fact. By contrast, McCartney and Mills married in an over-the-top lavish spectacle at a remote Irish castle that was disrupted several times by news helicopters ying overhead, hoping for a glimpse of

After 26 years of sunlight, Belo Miguel Ciprianis world went dark. He had weeks earlier been the victim of a brutal attack that resulted in the loss of his eyesight. After reconstructive surgery, his eyesight slowly improved. It deed logic for doctors but Cipriani was hopeful his improvements would continue until one morning he woke up and everything was dark. Im a total. That means Im totally blind, he said, which is not that common among those who are legally blind. Now 31, Cipriani is still becoming accustomed to life without the ability to see. He had to learn how to do the most mundane daily activities again. Cipriani is always improving upon his ability to read Braille. No challenge could keep Cipriani from writing his rst book, Blind: A Memoir. While he lives in San Francisco, Cipriani will return to Notre Dame de Namur University, his alma mater, Wednesday to discuss his memoir. Writing wasnt Ciprianis original plan. As a teen, Cipriani had an interest in writing. But, as a gay teen in the 90s, he didnt see topics that interested him in print. The things I wanted to write about, there wasnt an audience for me, he said. Cipriani, a Bay Area native, didnt let that get him down. After completing his bachelors degree, he found a successful career in the corporate world. He was working at a fast
A weekly look at the people who shape our community pace and nding himself with the ability to buy his rst home in San Francisco at 24. His life changed at 26 on an evening that should have been an ordinary night out. Cipriani ran into a group of former high school friends. What could have been a serendipitous occasion soon turned into harsh words that escalated to violence. The four former friends jumped Cipriani. He had studied martial arts for years and worked on protecting his body. But Cipriani was kicked in the head so many times that his retinas detached causing him to go blind. Everything went black; I wasnt sure if I was dead or alive, he recalled. He was able to scramble to his cell phone and call a friend. The days that follow are fuzzy. He shouldnt have been able to see again, and overall he wasnt. There was, however, a brief period where Cipriani had hope. Eyes keep their shape through a jelly-like substance

which Cipriani had lost in the attack. In an attempt to save his eyes, a synthetic alternative was put into his eyes. Miraculously, Ciprianis sight began slowly improving giving him hope of regaining his ability to see. Unfortunately, he woke up one morning in darkness, which hes lived in ever since. Blind: A Memoir, explores the assimilation process for Cipriani. He took solace in books but found most were old and described
life of people who had always been blind. Those stories missed the mourning period Cipriani experienced. He has spent time in dorms at various Bay Area schools learning life. Ciprianis rst major victory came when he learned the layout of his home giving him complete freedom in at least one place. Using a cane was also a great experience. It was amazing how I was able to move so much faster. I could really navigate everything. I felt connected to my surroundings, he said. Cipriani also has a faithful guide dog now, a Labrador named Madge. Blind: A Memoir is a start for Cipriani, who is a full-time writer. Hes working on a second novel and enjoying giving talks throughout October, which happens to be National Disability Awareness Month. To give one of those talks at Notre Dame is like a homecoming to Cipriani who has wonderful memories of the Belmont campus. Belo Miguel Cipriani will talk about his book, Blind: A Memoir, at the NDNU library, 1500 Ralston Ave. in Belmont at 4 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 12. Copies of Ciprianis memoir will be available for sale. Although there is no charge for the program, contributions will be accepted for Guide Dogs for the Blind and the Trauma Recovery Center, which provided support to Cipriani after he lost his sight. The talk will be followed by a reception from 5 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.
Minors will soon nd it difcult to purchase over-the-counter remedies containing the drug dextromethorphan without a prescription beginning Jan 1. The state law is one of many to make it into the books by route of a contest envisioned by state Sen. Joe Simitian, D-Palo Alto, through his There Oughta Be A Law contest, now in its 11th and nal year as the senator is being termed out of ofce. Senate Bill 514, formally introduced as AB 1853 eight years ago, prohibits the sale of non-prescription drugs containing DXM to a person under 18 in California. The bill was created by two local police department employees, Sgt. Wayne Benitez of Palo Alto and Police Chief Ron Lawrence of Rocklin, who were given the opportunity to submit
their idea for a new law through state Simitians contest. Simitians contest has allowed citizens to submit ideas for a new law, or to modify or appeal an existing law. At least one contest winner is selected Joe Simitian each year, and his or her idea is introduced the following spring as a legislative proposal. Since the inception of the program, 18 Oughta entries have been signed into law. As with any bill making its way through the Capitol, There Oughta Be A Law bills still face resistance. Senate Bill 514 stalled twice due to lack of support from the Assembly and Senate; however, the more people became educated on the topic, the easier it was to recruit support, according to Simitians ofce.
As a former juvenile detective, I discovered high school students were getting high by non-prescription medicine containing DXM, Benitez said. Ron [Lawrence] and I wrote a thesis on how to prevent the underlying sale of DXM and were determined to limit
the possession of the drug in the hands of minors. When Simitian held his contest, we knew we had to join it to bring awareness to the problem.

Police responded to the PetSmart in San Mateo Saturday night after a man shot one of the clerks in a robbery attempt.The clerk suffered non-life threatening injuries.
CONTEST
Continued from page 5
Simitian started the contest in 2001 as a way to remain connected with constituents. Before being elected to the state Legislature in 2004, he lived full-time in the areas he represented and, after spending more time in Sacramento, he wanted to be informed about the issues the community faced. California continues to face major challenges. Especially in tough times, the public wants to make a difference. Our community wants to make government work, and they have good ideas for how to do it, Simitian said in a prepared statement. The Oughta contest exemplies the communitys viable perspectives on government agendas and the ability to generate engaging ideas. A number of legislators were inspired to create similar contests, including Assemblymembers Jerry Hill, Sandre Swanson and Jared Huffman and Senators Mark DeSaulnier and Bob Huff. Hill, D-San Mateo, followed in Simitians footsteps by starting his own There Oughta Be A Law contest in 2009 for residents of his 19th Assembly District. Hill feels the benet of his contest is being able to engage the community in the legislative process directly. Any type of ideas can inuence future legislation, Hill said. Its important for people to feel involved in the process that is created for them. Who is better at knowing what the people need than the citizens themselves? Legislators conne proposals by categorizing them through which ideas are being created, changed or enforced into law; what are the nancial requirements; who is in support or opposition; and if the proposal is
A clerk at a PetSmart store in San Mateo was injured during an armed robbery of the store on Saturday night, police said. San Mateo police responded to reports of an armed robbery at the PetSmart at 3520 S. El Camino Real shortly after 8 p.m. Police said that a suspect armed with a handgun entered the PetSmart and approached one of the sales clerks. The suspect demanded cash and then red several shots at the clerk and ed from the store, police said.
The clerk, a 34-year-old San Mateo man, suffered a gunshot wound and was transported to a nearby hospital. His injuries were not life threatening, police said. There were about 15 customers in the store at the time of the robbery, and police interviewed witnesses at the scene. Part of South El Camino Real was closed for about an hour during the investigation. Police said the suspect is described as a black man between 30 and 35 years old, stands 5 feet 9 inches tall and weighs about 180 pounds. He was wearing a black cap and sweatshirt, police said.
HISTORY

production of ships occurred on the West Coast, many came from facilities the did not exist prior to Dec. 7, 1941. Cement ships were produced to the south of the Western Pipe and Steel yards in South San Francisco, near Belle Air island (just north of United Airlines repair facilities at SFO). The cement ships they produced were intended for use by
being pulled by another ship and to move bulk goods. They had no engines. Henry J. Kaiser Permanente Metals ToddCalifornia Shipbuilding Corporation immediately began enlarging the Yard #1 in Richmond that had been building Ocean Class freighters for the British and improving on the Britishs outdated ship by installing oil-burning engines instead of the coal-burning ones. Yard #2 was built by Permanente Metals nearby. What started as a 6-way yard in 1941 was expanded to a 9-way yard and almost immediately enlarged to a 12-way site. After the ships were begun, they were
transferred to an outtting dock for completion. Yard #3 in 1942 had drydocks to service the completed ships. Yard #4 produced frigates, tank-carrying landing ships and baby Liberty ships. The most heralded ships of World War II were the Liberty ships. All ships were designated Ships for Victory at rst, then a specic ship was designated the Victory ship. Built by the New England Shipbuilding Corp., the S.S. Jeremiah OBrien is a good example of the average Liberty ship. Original identication was EC2-S-C1 and the rst was launched June 19, 1943.

WORLD/NATION
WASHINGTON After two years on the unemployment rolls, Selena Forte thought shed found a temporary job at a delivery company that matched her qualications. But Forte, a 55-year-old from Cleveland, says a recruiter for an employment agency told her she would not be considered for the job because she had been out of work too long. She had lost her job driving a bus. They didnt even want to hear about my experience, said Forte. It
didnt make sense. Youre always told just go out there and get a job. Forte, scraping by now as a part time substitute school bus driver, is part of a growing number of unemployed or underemployed Americans who complain they are being screened out of job openings for the very reason theyre looking for work in the rst place. Some companies and job agencies prefer applicants who already have jobs, or havent been jobless too long. She could get help from a provision in President Barack Obamas jobs bill, which would ban companies with 15 or more employees from refusing
to consider or offer a job to someone who is unemployed. The measure also applies to employment agencies and would prohibit Barack Obama want ads that disqualify applicants just because they are unemployed. But Obamas bill faces a troubled path in Congress, as Republicans strongly oppose its plans for tax increases on the wealthy and other
spending provisions. Should the bill fail, Democrats are sure to remind jobless voters that the GOP blocked an attempt to redress discrimination against them at a time when work is so hard to nd. The effort to protect the unemployed has drawn praise from workers rights advocates, but business groups say it will just stir up needless litigation by frustrated job applicants. The provision would give those claiming discrimination a right to sue, and violators would face nes of up to $1,000 per day, plus attorney fees and costs. Threatening business owners with
new lawsuits is not going to help create jobs and will probably have a chilling effect on hiring, said Cynthia Magnuson, spokeswoman for the National Federation of Independent Business. Business owners may be concerned about posting a new job if they could face a possible lawsuit. A survey earlier this year by the National Employment Law Project found more than 150 job postings on employment Web sites such as CareerBuilder.com and Monster.com requiring that applicants must be currently employed or using other exclusionary language based on current employment status.
BEIRUT Syrias foreign minister warned the international community Sunday not to recognize a new umbrella council formed by the opposition, threatening tough measures against any country that does so. Foreign Minister Walid alMoallem did not specify what measures Damascus might take. But he went on to say that countries that do not protect Syrian missions could nd their own embassies treated in the same way. We will take tough measures
against any country that recognizes this illegitimate council, alMoallem said without elaborating on what type of reaction it might bring. The Syrian National Council, announced last week in Turkey, is a broad-based group which includes most major opposition factions. No country or international body has recognized it so far as a legal representative of the Syrian people. Bourhan Ghalioun, the opposition councils most prominent ofcial, said he expects the organization will be recognized in the coming few weeks.
CAIRO Flames lit up downtown Cairo, where massive clashes raged Sunday, drawing Christians angry over a recent church attack, Muslims and Egyptian security forces. At least 24 people were killed and more than 200 injured in the worst sectarian violence since the uprising that ousted Hosni Mubarak in February. The rioting lasted late into the night, bringing out a deployment of more than 1,000 security forces and armored vehicles to defend the state television building along the Nile, where the trouble began. The mili-
tary clamped a curfew on the area until 7 a.m. The clashes spread to nearby Tahrir Square, drawing thousands of people to the vast plaza that served as the epicenter of the protests that ousted Mubarak. On Sunday night, they battled each other with rocks and firebombs, some tearing up pavement for ammunition and others collecting stones in boxes. At one point, an armored security van sped into the crowd, striking a half-dozen protesters and throwing some into the air. Protesters retaliated by setting re to military vehicles, a bus and private cars, sending ames rising into the night sky.
After midnight, mobs roamed downtown streets, attacking cars they suspected had Christian passengers. In many areas, there was no visible police or army presence to confront or stop them. Christians, who make up about 10 percent of Egypts 80 million people, blame the countrys ruling military council for being too lenient on those behind a spate of antiChristian attacks since Mubaraks ouster. As Egypt undergoes a chaotic power transition and security vacuum in the wake of the uprising, the Coptic Christian minority is particularly worried about the show of force by ultraconservative Islamists.

Step 3- Nutrition
Often times patients are deficient in certain vitamins and minerals or can have a toxic buildup in their system which can be contributing to or may even be causing some of their pain. At Crossroads Health Center we will take an extensive history and perform any tests necessary to determine if a nutritional deficiency or toxicity may be present. Then an individualized nutritional program may be recommended to decrease pain and inflammation, speed up healing and improve overall health.

My doctor recommended surgery but surgery terrifies me. Too many unknowns and too many horror stories. How Pain Has Been Treated in the Past. Are Drugs and Shots the Answer? Until now, people have masked their pain by frequently taking prescription pain pills or by getting cortisone, epidural or steroid injections. This type of relief masks the cause, is temporary, and more often can lead to even more pain or worse yet, addiction to drugs. Many people innocently fall into abusing prescription pain pills while initially using them to alleviate pain. Do you know that prescription medications kill more people every year than illegal drugs do? How many stories have we heard in the news over the last year of people dying from abuse of prescription pills? With all the potential side effects are pain pills really the best long term solution to pain?

ith the start of realignment that began this month, we are all acutely aware of the added burden the state is placing on counties. This only adds to the necessity of solving our jail overcrowding problem. My concern during my tenure as a supervisor has been to focus on what the tremendous cost of a new, largescale jail will add to our budget, particularly if the full complement of beds is built out, practically doubling our capacity when the new jail is complete. Like all of my colleagues on the board, I have met individually with the sheriff and with his jail planning team, and we have all attended study sessions on the jail. I have raised a number of issues and all of those issues were answered by the Sheriffs Ofce to my satisfaction. A board majority has now authorized the county to submit a conceptual application for state funding to help in the construction phase of the jail. We should not forgo this possibility, no matter how much or how little money Sacramento ultimately decides to grant us. I voted to support the Sheriffs Ofce recommendation on the size of the jail contained in Option B, but at the Oct. 4 board meeting, I also expressed some caveats. One: If at all possible, I would like the womens facility to be separate from the mens facility. I know that the Sheriffs Ofce is sensitive to the issues that women face in prisons and jail and I applaud their pursuit of gender-based
programming. I want to be sure that our womens facility is a model for the state, if not the country, for genderbased programs with extended visiting opportunities for the children of incarcerated women. And I dont mean just the women in transitional housing, I mean all women in our facilities with children under 5 years of age. Second: The Sheriffs Ofce proposal shows a stacking of modules with the top oor as vacant space for potential future expansion. I understand from talking with the sheriff that the model that we have seen is only conceptual and that the nal design decisions will be made by the architectural team. I would ask that the jail design team consider placing the future expansion in a position where it can be used for other potential uses. Perhaps it could be placed either on the ground oor or be a separate part of a module attached to the larger facility or even the womens facility if at all possible. I am concerned that if it is at the top of what looks like a maximum security facility, it will have no other use than jail capacity. I have been assured that the design process will consider these and other factors. Third: I do support an expansion of re-entry programs. The jail models I have seen to date appear to be medium to maximum security. I will advocate that the nal design permit state-of-theart re-entry programs. It is my under-
standing that future state funding will be predicated on how successful our correctional system is in lowering the recidivism rate. Fourth: If jail facilities and services are to be expanded, and indeed that is the whole point of realignment, and while I believe that public safety is the highest priority for local government, jails arent the only part of public safety. What I cannot accept is the possibility that a new jail will solve one set of problems only to create a whole new set of problems elsewhere because of nances. This scal threat to the safety net services for our most needy residents is unacceptable to me. It will be imperative to nd realistic ways to offset the added costs without damaging the very services that focus on the neediest and most at-risk people in our county. Adding $20 million or $30 million or $40 million to our annual budget must be balanced with serious discussion of how to pay for these new responsibilities without bankrupting health or social services or closing parks and libraries. We are in this together and we must approach this scal challenge with the same serious examination as the sheriff and my colleagues have already put into jail planning.

NEW YORK Are investors overreacting to the prospect of a recession? The slightly better jobs report on Friday notwithstanding, the odds of a recession appear to be climbing, and thats bringing back scary memories. Though stocks may look cheap thanks to record corporate prots, that was also true the last time the U.S. was heading into a downturn. Based on recent recessions, prots could fall a third if the economy crumbles. Investors have been worried about a new recession for months. Headlines last week ratcheted up the fear. On Tuesday, the Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke testified to Congress that the recovery is close to faltering. Goldman Sachs said Europe could fall into recession by the end of the year, and push the U.S. to the edge of one itself. A co-founder of the Economic
Cycle Research Institute, a forecasting rm that called the last three downturns, made the rounds of TV news shows to say a U.S. recession was all but inevitable. With memories of the Great Recession so fresh, investors are understandably spooked. A year after that downturn began in Dec. 2007, prots at companies in the Standard & Poors 500 index turned into losses. Three months after that, stocks hit bottom at half their prerecession peak. But recessions come in many varieties, and most are less scary than the last one. A review of past ones shows that: Prot drops range widely. From peak to trough, prots at S&P 500 companies, excluding nancial rms, fell an average 32 percent in the past ve recessions, according to Adam Parker, U.S. equity strategist at Morgan Stanley. He excludes nancial rms because their record write-offs in the last recession turned S&P prots into losses, and would exaggerate the drop at the average company in the index. The biggest fall in prots: 57 percent from the peak before the 2001 dot-com recession. Prots during the 1981-82
recession fell 17 percent. Recessions usually last less than a year. A recession that began in January 1980 was over in six months. The Great Recession that ended June 2009 lasted 18 months, the longest since the Great Depression. The 11 recessions since World War II averaged 11 months. Stock investors can get clobbered, but not always. Bear markets that accompany recessions have pulled stocks down an average 38 percent in the last ve downturns, based on data from Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist at Standard & Poors. From their October 2007 peak before the last recession, stocks fell 57 percent. But in the bear market during the recession that began in July 1990, they fell only 20 percent. By the time the economy falls into recession, much of the damage to stocks is usually over. The stock market famously looks forward six to nine months, and thats mostly true on the cusp of downturns, too. Stocks had been dropping for a year by the time the 2001 recession began. Thats worth remembering if another recession is coming. The S&P 500 is already down 15 percent from its recent peak in April.
HARTFORD, Conn. Connecticut ofcials are not giving up on requiring Internet sellers to collect state sales taxes, despite signs from online retailer Amazon.com that it has no immediate plans to abide by the states new Internet tax law. State officials confirmed to the Associated Press that Amazon wrote the Department of Revenue Services this month, saying the company is not obligated to abide by the law because it does not have a physical presence in Connecticut. Amazon contends that by not having a physical presence, it does not have to collect and remit taxes to the state, a protection of the U.S.
Constitution. Connecticut plans to press Amazon for the taxes the state believes it should have collected at least during the month or so when the new law was in effect and Amazon still had afliations with websites in Connecticut through its Amazon Associates Program. Amazon severed those ties in June. The state could expect up to $9.4 million a year in additional revenue if remote sellers, including Amazon, complied with the new law, according to an estimate by the General Assemblys Ofce of Fiscal Analysis. That estimate was based on data from a comparable New York law. Connecticut ofcials believe Amazon is obligated in other ways, as well.
All we have to do is get in the door. Once we get in the door, there are some more opportunities that come, DRS Commissioner Kevin Sullivan said. Connecticut plans to evaluate some other connections Amazon has with people in the state and start building a case that Sullivan predicted will ultimately be decided in court. He said he didnt know how much money the state could expect to collect from the month or so thats in question. Theyre not ghting against a burden on their ability to do business in the state of Connecticut, Sullivan said. Theyre ghting to protect an advantage against everybody else whos doing business in the state of Connecticut, he said.
Dow, Saudi oil company sign accord for $20 billion plant
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Dow Chemical Co. and the Saudi Arabian Oil Co. said Saturday that they signed an agreement that advances their plan to build one of the worlds biggest chemical plants in Saudi Arabia. The $20 billion complex is expected to begin production in 2015. The two companies agreed to a joint venture for Sadara Chemical Co., which will own the plant being built in the desert kingdom. The companies estimate it will generate about $10 billion in revenue annually within a few years of operation. Dow and Saudi Aramco together are investing about $12 billion, and a portion of Sadara will be sold to shareholders in a public offering in 2013 or 2014. The complex, with 26 manufacturing units, will be the largest integrated chemical facility ever built in one go, the companies said.

Two up. Two down. Midway through the third quarter of Serras WCAL matchup against Saint Ignatius, the infamous Padres Sixth Man broke out into a chant that went something to the degree of Thats-too-easy thats-tooeasy. And at times against the Wildcats, that observation was not an exaggeration. For the second week in a row, the Padres went on the road against a tough league opponent, and for the
second week in a row Serra had their way offensively. The Padres racked up 545 yards of total offense, all of which came on the ground and won comfortably over the Wildcats 49-28. The line was blocking great, said Serra head coach Patrick Walsh. And those guys are an arm tackle away from going to the house. All three of those guys. Walsh is referring of course, to the three-headed rushing monster that is Erich Wilson, Eric Redwood and Joey Erdie. The Serra backeld could not be stopped on Saturday.
The monster ate the Wildcats up for 539 yards on 43 carries. I was happy with the great run game that we had. Hey man, Im not ashamed to say that we run the football. Some people throw it, from people run it, some are balanced. But were a running football school. When you run the ball as well at the Padres have in 2011, there is absolutely nothing to be ashamed of. Serra got the party started on their first offensive possession. Eight plays in, Erdie pitched it to
Redwood who took the ball over the right side and danced his way into the end zone from 17 yards out for the 7-0 lead. Redwood was the workhorse for the Padres on Saturday. The junior rushed for 130 yards on 17 carries. Serra would add to their lead on their next drive, once against grinding their way down the eld until eventually Redwood would nd the house once again on a 5-yard touchdown run with 11:56 left in the second quarter.
HOUSTON Coach Hue Jackson sank to his knees, buried his face in his hands and nally released the emotions hed been holding back. Up in the visitors suite at Reliant Stadium, Mark Davis wiped away tears with a paper towel and glanced to the sky. The Oakland Raiders won the day after their maverick owner Al Davis died, beating the Houston Texans 25-20 on Sunday behind Jason Campbells two touchdown passes. Michael Huff intercepted Matt Schaubs pass in the end zone on the nal play, and the Raiders ran to celebrate a bittersweet victory unlike any other in the storied history of the franchise. Al, this ones for you. One thing coach (Davis) always taught me was he said: Hue dont believe in plays, believe in players and eventually the players will make plays for you, Jackson said. And thats what I did. I could just hear
SAN FRANCISCO Alex Smith never got a chance to help during an embarrassing shutout loss to Tampa Bay last year. He watched from the sideline as former coach Mike Singletary chose Troy Smith to start instead. Smith did in the Buccaneers this time, throwing two of his three touchdown passes to Vernon Davis and leading the San Alex Smith Francisco 49ers to a 48-3 win Sunday for their best start in nine years. Carlos Rogers returned an interception 31 yards for a touchdown and tight ends Davis and Delanie Walker each caught TD passes of 20-plus yards in San Franciscos third straight win since blowing a late lead in a Sept. 18 overtime loss to the Cowboys. Frank Gore ran for a touchdown in his second straight 100-yard rushing game, but a late injury to wide

HOUSTON The Oakland Raiders wore decals on their helmets to h o n o r Raiders owner Al Davis during their game Sunday against the Texans and left Houston with a 25-20 win. The stickers on the back of the helmets read AL in silver letters over the black Raiders shield.
Davis died Saturday at his home in Oakland, Calif. He was 82. Thats all he was ever interested in was winning, this organization, the Raiders, coach Hue Jackson said. This man bleeds silver and black. He is what the Raiders are all about. I will still hear him every step of the way and were going to miss him. The Raiders and Texans also observed a moment of silence for Davis before the game. The teams and fans paused for the moment while a short video of Davis was shown on the video board. Most Raiders players kept their heads down and a few clasped hands as the video was shown.
The Raiders won three Super Bowls for their Hall of Fame owner. Quarterback Jason Campbell, who threw two touchdown passes in Sundays win, said it was a difcult day for the team. We knew it was going to be a tough game, he said. We were fighting against our emotions to hold them back, but at the same time go out and win a game for him. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said before the Bills game against the Eagles that a moment of silence would be held before every game this weekend.
MILWAUKEE The barbs already were ying. Come Sunday, the Milwaukee Brewers bashed the St. Louis Cardinals with their bats. Needing a rally in the NL championship series opener, Milwaukee turned to its power duo of Ryan Braun and Prince Fielder, then got a clutch hit from Yuniesky Betancourt to beat the St. Louis Cardinals 9-6. Braun launched a two-run, 463foot homer in the rst inning and added a two-run double during a sixrun burst in the fth. Fielder hit a two-run homer and the typically light-hitting Betancourt added a two-run homer to cap the big comeback. The midgame turnaround came so fast that the crowd wasnt done cheering Brauns big hit when Fielder went deep. I dont even know if I heard the ball come off Princes bat, Brewers manager Ron Roenicke said. I knew it was a good swing and came off nice, but when you cant hear the ball, the sound of it, because of all the people yelling. I wasnt sure what was going to happen there until I saw the ball ight. At least for one game, the bitter NL Central rivals avoided any onfield confrontations in their first

5:00 left in the third. St. Ignatius responded behind the arm of Stinn, who came into the contest as the sections fourth-best passer according to Maxpreps.com. He was aided by the fact that Wilson, Serras best cornerback, spent some time on the sideline getting some help by the training staff. The Wildcats quarterback took advantage and moved his team down the field, setting up a one-yard touchdown plunge by Kerry Crowley to make it 35-14. But as mentioned, on this particular day, Serras reactions to S.I. touchdowns were quick. On the Padres next offensive play, Erdie kept the ball himself, dashed down the field and up the sideline, showing breakaway speed along the way to an 89-yard touchdown run. Ive just been working hard all summer, Erdie said of his run. All the credit goes to the O-line for creating the holes. Thats pretty much all I can say. They were big holes and we just ran through them. The Serra offensive line opened one more huge hole on Saturday and once again Wilson was there to make advantage. With 6:26 left in the fourth quarter and following another Crowley touchdown, Wilson took the handful and barreled into the trenches. He appeared to be stopped for a minimal game, but kept working, breaking four or five tackles, getting into the second half of the S.I. defense and then finding daylight one last time for a 67-yard touchdown run to make it 49-21. I just saw grass, Wilson said of his run. And if you think about it, that doesnt open up for any reason. Its the offensive line doing the work there. Crowley would add another score to his day with a late touchdown to make it 49-28. After three straight road games, the Padres return home next Friday for their homecoming matchup against Archbishop Mitty.

St. Ignatius would pull that score back following a 10-play drive that was capped with a 6-yard touchdown run by quarterback Jack Stinn. But it would be a theme for the afternoon that, as soon as S.I. managed anything offensively, Serra would respond emphatically. On the next Serra possession, Redwood would score his third touchdown of the game, taking the ball into the end zone on a 55-yard run it came 1:49 seconds after Stinn had scored for the Wildcats. The Padres were just getting warmed up. On their next offensive play (after stalling a St. Ignatius drive), Wilson bolted through the heart of the Wildcat defense and straight down the field for an 84-yard touchdown run that put the Padres up 28-7. The run by No. 21 jump-started another spectacular afternoon for the Colorado bound running back, who finished the game with 244 yards rushing on only 13 carries. Great players make great coaches, Walsh said, and when you have personnel like Erich, Redwood and Joey, and a great offensive line, it makes us all look good. So, Im really proud of those guys. It feels good right now, Wilson said. Its a big rival in S.I. I know my linemen, they dont like S.I. So, if my linemen dont like S.I., I dont like them. So, I ran for my linemen today feel good about it. The three-touchdown lead would hold until the halftime whistle. Serra wasnt done though. After a stalled drive and a fourth-down stop on a fake punt, Wilson scored his second touchdown of the game on a four-yard touchdown run with

WINNIPEG, Manitoba The NHL returned to Winnipeg with a cold reminder of the challenge that lies ahead. Carey Price stopped 30 shots and the Montreal Canadiens put a damper on a massive civic celebration with a 5-1 victory over the Jets on Sunday. The return of big-league hockey to the city had fans celebrating in the streets hours before the puck was dropped and horns honking outside the MTS Centre throughout the afternoon. Virtually everyone was decked out in Jets gear both new and old. With so much of the focus on the anticipation surrounding the NHLs
return after 15 years, the performance of the team itself almost seemed secondary. But that changed in a hurry with a sloppy game by the Jets that suggested they have plenty of work to do to become the playoff team coach Claude Noel believes they can be. Mike Cammalleri, Tomas Plekanec, Yannick Weber, Travis Moen and Max Pacioretty scored for the opportunistic Canadiens, who bounced back from a 2-0 loss in Toronto to open the season. Nik Antropov replied for Winnipeg. The Atlanta Thrashers finished 12th in the Eastern Conference last season and all but four players from that team were in the Jets lineup Sunday. The roof was nearly blown off the
intimate arena when Antropov scored the rst goal for the reincarnated Jets at 2:27 of the third period. The growing tension was palpable before Antropov drove hard to the net and shovelled a rebound behind Price to make it 2-1. A surge of momentum followed as Winnipeg poured on the pressure in an effort to tie the game. But Montreal soon went back ahead by two after Weber scored on a one-timer at 4:51 while Dustin Byfuglien was serving an intereference penalty. Moens breakaway goal at 10:31 and Paciorettys perfectly placed wrist shot at 12:33 ended any hope for a fairy-tale comeback. Montreal was a hand-picked opening night opponent for the Jets
We thought it would be a terrific matchup, said NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman but it didnt play the role of gracious guest. Price was particularly sharp and the Habs took advantage of Johnny Oduyas two turnovers to build a 2-0 lead. The rst ended up on the stick of Cammalleri, who quickly beat Ondrej Pavelec with a nice wrist shot at 3:05 of the rst period. Plekanec made it 2-0 at 14:17 of the second period after winning a puck battle with Oduya. The soldout 15,004-seat building the NHLs smallest was rocking before the game. Fans rose to their feet after a pre-game video montage that ended with the words Its Time, applauded a touching
tribute to former Manitoba Moose player Rick Rypien and belted out the words to O Canada along with Chantal Kreviazuk and Jim Cuddy. It was the kind of scene owner Mark Chipman had long imagined in his dreams while plotting a way to convince the NHL to return. He seemed genuinely humbled by the emotion in the city and the building. I know how it happened, Chipman said about the NHLs return. I can go back over the past 16 years and I can tell people how it happened, but Im not sure why it happened. Ive had an enormous amount of good things happen to me and Im not sure why that is. I struggle with that one. Even when I do pinch myself, it doesnt come to me.
TOKYO Jonathan Horton will have an unusual spot for the mens all-around. In the stands. The reigning world bronze medalist had the fth-best individual score in qualifying at the world gymnastics championships Sunday. But countries are limited to two gymnasts in each nal, and John Orozco and Danell Leyva nished second and third. Honestly, I dont care at all. All I ever dream about is standing on top of the awards podium with my team, Horton said. I learned at the
Olympics and Ive said it b e f o r e , Standing up there with your brothers next to you is so much more satisfying than being up there alone. I Jonathan cannot wait to Horton be able to stand on the award podium with them and hear my national anthem play. Im extremely happy for Danell and John, they did great job today. I know theyre going to do awesome in the all-around final, Horton added. Im just going to put 100
percent of my effort into that team nal on Wednesday. I cant wait to be out there and push everybody to the next level. Horton finished with 89.689 points, a mere .159 points behind Leyva and less than a point from Orozco. He needs only to look at pommel horse to see where he fell short. Pommel horse has long been Hortons nemesis. A fall at the national championships in August helped cost him a third title, and hed have another world medal and maybe one from the Beijing Olympics if not for his low start values and shaky routines. Horton actually was looking
stronger and more confident on horse than he has in a long time. But he failed to complete a handstand early in the routine, a doublewhammy because he didnt get credit for the skill and was penalized on his execution mark. The error, one Horton doesnt usually make, cost him more than a point, he said. Honestly, if hadnt messed up that one skill ... I would have been right there with John, Horton said. That really hurt me. But other than that, I was swinging really good on horse today. My circle was so much better. Horton is still in the running for the nals on still rings and high bar,
where he is the reigning Olympic silver medalist. But really, he said, the only medal that matters is the one he needs ve other guys help to win. The U.S. was second to Japan in qualifying, nishing almost 3 points behind. But the Americans are set up better for team nals, where three gymnasts compete on each event and all three scores count. This is the best team weve ever had on a world championship oor, Horton said. Were trying to stay very grounded and very humble and I think were doing good job with that. At same time, were excited. We cant help but know were a good team. ... We feel really good

With Smith making all the right calls behind center, those occasional Blue Angels yovers for Fleet Week just added some extra entertainment on a gorgeous fall afternoon in the Bay Area. A 2 1/2-point favorite coming in, the 49ers delivered a shocking blowout. Smith made his mark, going 11 for 19 for 170 yards and no sacks or interceptions before giving way to rookie backup Colin Kaepernick midway through the fourth. The 49ers are 4-1 for the rst time since 2002, the last time the franchise had a winning record and reached the playoffs four head coaches ago.

Fielder then showed off his repertoire of celebrations, giving the teams Beast Mode gesture upon his arrival at home plate and exchanging mock knockout blows with Braun as he trotted back to the dugout. That was it for Garcia, who left with no outs in the fth and his team down 6-5. It that wasnt the end of trouble for the Cardinals, though.

ATLANTA After a sluggish start for Aaron Rodgers and the Super Bowl champs, the result was the same. Another win in Atlanta for the Green Bay Packers. Following up on a blowout of the Falcons in last years playoffs, Rodgers threw for 396 yards and a pair of touchdowns to rally the Packers from an early 14-point hole, keeping Green Bay unbeaten with a 25-14 victory Sunday night. The high-scoring Packers (5-0) were held without a touchdown in the rst half by Atlanta (2-3), which was trying to make up for an embar-
rassing 48-21 loss to Green Bay last January. The Falcons had the Georgia Dome rocking when they raced to a 14-0 lead early in the second quarter, scoring on their rst two possessions. After that, the home fans had little to cheer about. Green Bay settling for three eld goals by Mason Crosby, closing to 14-9 before Rodgers got rolling. He connected with James Jones on a 70-yard touchdown that gave Green Bay its rst lead late in the third. Then, on the rst play of the fourth quarter, Rodgers connected with Greg Jennings on a 29-yard scoring play that stretched the lead to 22-14.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. BenJarvus Green-Ellis ran for a career-high 136 yards and two touchdowns. Tom Brady had another strong game, completing 24 of 33 passes for 321 yards and one touchdown as the Patriots scored at least 30 points for the 13th straight regular-season game. Meanwhile, New Yorks Mark Sanchez had another tough one, passing for just 166 yards against the team that entered with the NFLs lowest-ranked defense. One week earlier, he threw for 111 yards in a 34-17 loss at Baltimore. In the last meeting between the Jets and Patriots, Sanchez outplayed Brady in New Yorks 28-21 playoff win on Jan. 16, adding to the erce rivalry between the AFC East teams.
a 6-yard touchdown with 50 seconds left to lift New Orleans (4-1) Brees threw for 359 yards and two touchdowns, including a nearly awless nal drive in which he completed 8 of 9 passes for 80 yards to take back momentum after Cam Newton and the Panthers (1-4) had taken their rst lead early in the fourth quarter. The Saints defense nally sealed the win, letting the Panthers reach only mideld before Newtons desperation heave downeld fell incomplete for the games the nal play. Newton threw for 224 yards and two touchdowns, including the go-ahead 5-yard scoring pass to Greg Olsen for a 27-23 lead with 12:32 to play. He also scored on a sneak late in the third quarter.
Whitehurst, who replaced the injured Tarvaris Jackson in the third quarter, led the Seahawks (2-3) on an 80-yard TD drive, which he capped with his pass to a wide-open Baldwin with 2:37 left on a play that the Giants (3-2) seemed to stop after defensive end Osi Umenyiora jumped offside. The Giants, who had staged fourth-quarter rallies to win their last two games, mounted another late drive and had rst-and-goal at the Seahawks 5 after consecutive completions of 41 and 19 yards to Victor Cruz. A procedure penalty on rst down pushed the ball back to the 10, then Eli Mannings pass tipped off Cruzs hands, bounced off Kam Chancelor and was picked off at the 6 by Browner.

omething the size of a single grain of rice could save your pet. Its readily available, no appointment necessary. And it will set you back just $20 if you visit on a Monday. This week, were announcing Microchip Mondays at our new Lantos Center for Compassion, 1450 Rollins Road in Burlingame. On Mondays only (11 a.m. to 7 p.m. on weekdays, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekends), you can get your dog or cat implanted with a chip for just $20; the regular fee is $30. Youll be singing Homeward Bound instead of I Dont Like Mondays. Implant may be a scary word for some. In reality, the procedure is quite simple, quick, and requires no pain meds. A tiny microchip is injected just under the skin between your pets shoulder blades. And we know this chip is sometimes the difference between a pet being reunited and lost forever. Just $20 for this kind of insurance and peace of mind is a pretty sweet deal! Of course, we recommend that owners have ID tags and a microchip form of identication. Nice part about the chip is that it never fades and never falls off. However, owners need to update their info on le if they change addresses or phone numbers. The chip is only as good as the contact information owners provide. A few years back, we reunited a cat who had been separated from his owner for 10 years. That was extreme; we make other matches each week thanks to microchips. Scanning incoming stray animals for microchips is among our very rst steps. Our ofcers, too, do this in the eld when they rescue stray dogs from harms way. I dont like giving lots of stats, because people rarely remember them. But this is one that might stay with you for a while: nationally, just 1 percent to 2 percent of stray cats are returned to their owners. Scott oversees PHS/SPCAs Adoption, Behavior and Training, Education, Outreach, Field Services, Cruelty Investigation, Volunteer and Media/PR program areas and staff from the new Tom and Annette Lantos Center for Compassion.
LOS ANGELES Boxing robots are the undisputed champions at the weekend box office. Hugh Jackmans Real Steel, set in a near-future when robot fighters have replaced humans in the ring, debuted at No. 1 with $27.3 million, according to studio estimates Sunday. A DreamWorks release distributed by Disney, Real Steel added $22.1 million in 19 overseas markets for a worldwide total of $49.4 million. The movie casts Jackman as a former boxer reluctantly thrown together with his young son as they turn a junkyard robot into a world-class contender. George Clooneys political saga The Ides of March was the runner-up, opening at No. 2 with $10.4 million. The Sony release stars Ryan Gosling as an aide to a presidential candidate (Clooney) caught up in scandal. Clooney also directed. The previous No. 1 movie, the Warner Bros. family film Dolphin Tale, slipped to No. 3 with $9.2 million, raising its domestic total to $49.1 million. Males accounted for two-thirds of the audience for Real Steel, though Jackmans sex appeal and a romantic subplot involving co-star Evangeline Lilly was a draw for women, said Dave Hollis, Disneys head of distribution. The movie brought in a solid mix of couples and parents with children, he said. The men might have been more attracted to this idea of boxing robots and the Rock Em Sock Em part of it. For women, it was more Hugh and the Hugh and Evangeline angle, Holis said. For families, its this father-son story and the somewhat redemptive rise to glory toward the end. The Ides of March presents an acting dream team, with Academy Award winners Clooney, Philip Seymour Hoffman and Marisa Tomei in great form opposite Oscar nominees Gosling and Paul Giamatti. Its one thing to have a great cast of actors like we have in this film, but its

really cool watching them chew it up, said Rory Bruer, head of distribution for Sony. Other than the sizable opening for Real Steel, it was a typically quiet fall weekend at theaters, a lull before big holiday movies start arriving in late October and early November. Overall domestic revenues totaled $94 million, virtually identical to the same weekend a year ago, when The Social Network led with $15.5 million, according to box-office tracker Hollywood.com. Real Steel felt like a summer movie, and I think that appealed to family audiences, said Hollywood.com analyst Paul Dergarabedian. If you release a summerstyle movie in the fall, you can still grab a pretty good audience.

Parks and Recreation Committee. Going forward, Perez thinks the city needs to make caring for the citys aging population a top priArt Kiesel ority. We have a moral and ethical obligation to provide services for our seniors, he said. Okamoto, 69, is recently retired after working for the Herb Perez American Cancer Society as a fundraiser. He has paid close attention to the citys deficit and has attended every study session related to the budget in the Jennifer MinkeySelvitella past year. I have no personal agenda, he said. I want to concentrate totally on the business at hand. Okamoto endorses using the citys reserve to protect programs for children and seniors. Minkey-Selvitella, 42, was born and raised in Foster City and owns a small insurance company and majored in politics at the University of San Francisco. She is the past president of the parent-teacher association in Foster City. As a young woman, she said she represents a different demographic than her opponents do. We live in a unique community. I spent my life here and I want to maintain the good things about the city with no major changes, she said. She touts her current good relationship with the school district as a way to bring the city and school officials closer together to help solve the citys need for a fourth elementary school. Incumbent Kiesel, however, said there is a misconception by the public that it is the citys job to educate children. The public needs to be better educated on what is the responsibility of the school district and the city such as funding crossing guards, he said. The council reluctantly approved fundcrossing Steve Okamoto ing guards at the citys schools for $20,000 this year after deciding previously to cut the funding. The school board needs more public Bill Schwarz outreach, said Kiesel, 68. Regarding the citys structural deficit, the council has a l r e a d y approved $2.8 million in cuts and put a hotel occupancy tax Patrick Sullivan on the November ballot to raise an additional $250,000 annually for the city, if approved. Foster City is in very good nancial shape compared to neighboring cities, he said. Ive had four years of experience with budgets in recessionary times. Ive made the hard choices already but there is more to the city than just the decit. He said the councils worst decision while he has served on it was to approve a contract with the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees before the city realized revenue was on the decline. Sales tax revenue went down further than was expected, he said. One proposal has units priced between $400,000 and $600,000 while the other has units priced between $800,000 and $1 million. We have to do what is in the best interest of our seniors, he said. Okamoto calls the vacant 15-acre site a potential crown jewel for Foster City and even the Peninsula. It is a big decision. You have to hear what the public is interested in, he said. The council will likely have a developer in place for the site prior to this Novembers election, however. Sullivan said Sares-Regis, which is offering one of the two development proposals the city is currently considering for the 15 acres, already dropped out of an exclusive development deal to construct a project on the site called Mirabella. The Mirabella project fell through because the developer could not secure the nancing for the project. Realistically, development on that site wont move forward for three or four years, Sullivan said. Sullivan is not condent either proposal is best for the city.

third if Kiesel is not re-elected. Joining Kiesel in the race are Steve Okamoto, Herb Perez, Bill Schwarz, Jennifer MinkeySelvitella and Patrick Sullivan. All six were invited to the Daily Journal ofce for an endorsement interview Wednesday. In the interview, candidates shared their views on why they are seeking the council seat, what their political philosophies are, what the citys biggest issue is, how to bridge the fractured relationship with the San Mateo-Foster City School District, what the councils worst decision was in recent years and other issues. Some also offered opinions on the vacant 15-acre lot adjacent to City Hall. Both Sullivan and Schwarz say they are running for council with one goal in mind, to close the citys nearly $3 million ongoing structural decit. Sullivan, 58, is a real estate broker and substitute teacher who has lived in Foster City for 20 years. My life is public service and I have a passion to work with the decit, Sullivan said.
are the 650 families in Foster City who have supported my campaign with their time and small donations, said Perez, who has lived in Foster City for ve years with his wife and children. Sullivan has received endorsements from Assemblyman Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo, and county Supervisor Dave Pine. He said the city must rst look at the state and county budgets to see what the potential impacts will be on Foster City. I cant live on projections in an uncertain economy, Sullivan said. The city intends to have a balanced budget by scal year 2013-14 without having to tap the citys nearly $19 million reserve. But Sullivan said the reserve is not as robust as it should be. Ive spent countless hours looking at the budget. We do not have $19 million in reserve. It has been tapped, he said.
Crossing guards
Regarding senior buses and crossing guards, Perez himself attempted to donate roughly $20,000 of his own money to the city twice to fund both programs but was rejected. The school district also rejected the donation, he said. Turning down donations is not wise. The city can partner with small businesses to fund some of these at-risk programs, he said. Minkey-Selvitella said the school district now might be more keen to accept the donation with a new superintendent. The lines of communication have been opened with new leadership in place, she said. Okamoto, who has lived in Foster City for 33 years, said it was time for a fresh start with the school district. We need to open up the lines of communication and work together, he said. Schwarz, however, said it is not in the purview of the council to take care of school issues. Sullivan was critical of the council for not funding crossing guards. Dont put kids at risk because you want to eliminate a line item, Sullivan said. The election is Tuesday, Nov. 8.

Several developments
Minkey-Selvitella is optimistic the city will realize a boost in revenue from several developments in the pipeline, including the PilgrimTriton development and the vacant 15-acre site. The projects, however, are years down the road, she said. There are other revenue-generating opportunities and the city needs to conduct outreach to the small business community to nd them, she said. She said city staff and the council has done a good job in closing the decit. Schwarz, who has lived in Foster City for 31 years, called city staff quite competent. He did say, however, that some Foster City residents feel like they are not being listened to by city staff which leads to frustration, particularly at the Planning Commission level. Both Minkey-Selvitella and Okamoto have garnered endorsements from each member of the current City Council. They both said that was a sign of trust from the citys top ofcials. Perez, however, said he was most proud of the endorsements he has received from the public at large. My biggest endorsement for me
Paying salaries
About 78 percent of the citys general fund budget goes toward paying salaries, Sullivan said, and that number could increase to above 80 percent if the city doesnt start reforming the way it handles retirement costs for its employees. Schwarz, 70, a retired nancial consultant, said he is disappointed with how the city has addressed the decit. I wish council would have spent more time addressing the budget decit more aggressively, he said. He called the citys reserve, about $19 million, healthy but said the city should work within its means. Perez is running a second time for council, he lost in 2009, and touts his skill set, education, experience and passion as reasons why he should be elected to the council. Perez, 52, was the rst in his family to graduate high school and college and now wants to give back to the community, he said. He owns Gold Medal Martial Arts in Foster City and serves on the
Police and re
In the current poor economy, Schwarz said the city can nd additional savings by seeking concessions from the citys police and re personnel. Regarding the vacant 15-acre site adjacent to the Peninsula Jewish Community Center, the city is currently courting two proposals to building senior housing on the site with a mix of retail. Perez said of the two proposals, one has signicantly lower prices for the housing units than the other.

The third bill requires insurance coverage for autism. Brown vetoed a fourth health care bill, AB791, which would have required extra warnings for the 40 percent of women over 40 who have breast tissue dense enough to mask or mimic cancers on mammograms.

week for a 12-acre park that will feature soccer and baseball elds. The project will also feature a 1.5acre neighborhood park and 1.5-acre linear park which will also one day be maintained by San Mateo. The site of the bigger park is intended to serve as the stormwater retention facility for the entire development and WMS has constructed a pond adjacent to Saratoga Drive to handle excess water during wet weather. Park and Recreation commissioners had one last request for the developer, however, to build a bathroom facility at the park. Our only reservation was the lack of rest room facilities, said Dave
San Mateo could have opted to take the $1 million but decided to let the developer build the park instead. The rst phase of Bay Meadows' comprehensive redevelopment was essentially completed in 2003 and features ofce, retail and residential uses, including Park Place and the Whole Foods Market. Kaiser Permanentes new medical ofces at Saratoga Drive and Hillsdale Boulevard represent the last project for Bay Meadows Phase I. Wilson Meany Sullivan is the development manager for a joint venture between the Bay Meadows Land Company and Stockbridge Real Estate Funds.
