OAKLAND A major San
Francisco Bay Area transit system
was to continue running train
service for Tuesday mornings
commute after unions and manage-
ment agreed to extend labor talks
past a midnight deadline.
Bay Area Rapid Transit unions
had said they would go on strike if
they didnt reach a contract deal by
midnight Monday after extending
stalled negotiations from over the
weekend.
The possibility of a strike
loomed as the unions gave man-
agement a 24-hour reprieve from
what would have been the second
strike in more than three months.
BART workers walked off the job
for nearly ve days in July. That
strike resulted in trafc jams and
long lines for buses.
Representatives of BART, the
Amalgamated Transit Union Local
1555 and the Service Employees
International Union Local 1021
resumed negotiations Monday
afternoon, hours after tense nego-
tiations ended around 3 a.m.
Sticking points in the 6-month-
old negotiations include salaries
and workers contributions to
their health and pension plans.
BART General Manager Grace
Crunican said a last, best and
nal offer presented to the unions
Sunday was $7 million higher
than a proposal presented Friday.
It includes an annual 3 percent
raise over four years and requires
BART to continue running

Longtime San Mateo Deputy
Police Chief Mike Callagy is leav-
ing the force to become a deputy
county manager focused on crimi-
nal justice issues like state prison-
er realignment.
Im very excited about working
at the County Managers Ofce,
Callagy said. Life takes you on
different paths sometimes and this
is an outstanding opportunity.
County leaders are also excited
to welcome Callagy aboard.
The alleged criminal justice
system isnt really a system at all
but a group of disparate parts. We
need someone who can bring it
together as a system and Mike can
bring a really strategic point of
view, said Don Horsley, president
of the Board of Supervisors.
Horsley also sat on the three-per-
son interview
team.
Callagy, 51,
retires from San
Mateo Nov. 11
after 29-and-a-
half years and
begins with the
county Nov.
11.
When you
love your job, you dont want to
take a break. I love being a cop but
I really look forward to becoming
a deputy county manager and get-
ting to work on some countywide
issues, Callagy said.
Callagy, who joined the police
department fresh from college and
has numerous degrees including
law, will ll the void left by the
retirement earlier this year of for-
mer deputy county manager Mary
McMillan. Supervisor Carole

Israeli gay rights debate
JERUSALEM The goal was merely
to promote clean energy in Israel
but television ads starring a pair of
male puppets called "plug" and "sock-
et" have instead unleashed a debate
about gay pride.
The puppets, named Sheka and Teka
in Hebrew, have appeared in ads for the
state-owned Israel Electric Corp. for
more than a decade. Israelis have long
playfully questioned whether they
might be gay. But the arrival of a baby
puppet in the new campaign set off
fresh speculation about their sexual
orientation.
The ads highlight a striking paradox
of the Holy Land: Although religion
holds great sway and there is no civil
marriage, gays have gained a wide-
spread acceptance that is increasingly
noted around the world. Gay activists
demand the ad characters, who have a
close but ambiguous relationship,
ofcially come out of the closet.
Some gay rights advocates accuse
the company of being intentionally
ambiguous about their sexuality in a
cynical publicity ploy.
"This should weigh on the con-
science of everyone who worked on
this campaign, who will come home
and ask themselves whether they
would want to raise a child in a country
where the electric company says:
`Hide, don't be proud,'" wrote Dvir Bar
in nightlife magazine City Mouse.
Sheka and Teka have drawn compar-
isons with another famous puppet
pair: Bert and Ernie, whose sexuality
also has come into question in pop
culture. Sesame Workshop, which pro-
duces "Sesame Street," has declared
that the two are just good friends and
they "remain puppets, and do not have
a sexual orientation."
In their latest ad, Sheka and Teka are
seen in a living room, talking to a
pinkish baby puppet with a tuft of
orange hair. The scene then ashes
back to a hospital nursery, where the
baby is sucking on a pacier and Teka
congratulates Sheka on the birth of
his child. It's unclear who the mother
i s.
Later in the ad, the duo sits on a park
bench with the child. They breathe in
the fresh air the electricity company
suggests is made possible by cleaner
energy production. Teka sniffs and
suggests that the baby needs a diaper
change.
Other ads have seen the two on a
shaded paddle boat in the Dead Sea,
driving a red convertible in crisp
black suits and sunglasses, and loung-
ing on the couch in their pajamas.
They have also been seen sharing a
room with single beds. Many of the
ads are public service announcements,
warning children about the dangers of
climbing electricity towers or getting
too close to space heaters.
The Israel Electric Corp. says it does
not understand the fuss over the cam-
paign. It says the puppets, who have
been on the air since 2002, are merely
delivering the company's messages.
"They represent the concerned
Israeli, who is really worried about the
air quality he is breathing and the
environment he lives in. The baby
that was born now represents the next
generation," said Oren Helman, a sen-
ior vice president who is behind the
commercial. "There are no hints or
ambiguities here."
Although sections of Israeli society
especially ultra-Orthodox Jews and
Arabs remain conservative and
often deeply opposed to homosexuali-
t y, Israel is seen as one of the world's
most progressive countries in terms of
gay rights.
Gays serve openly in Israel's mili-
tary and parliament, and the Supreme
Court has granted gays a variety of
family rights such as inheritance and
survivors' benets. Gays, lesbians and
even a transsexual are among the
country's most popular musicians and
actors.
Ofcially, there is no gay marriage
in Israel, primarily because there is no
civil marriage. All weddings must be
carried out through the Jewish rab-
binate, which considers homosexuali-
ty a sin and a violation of Jewish law.
But the state recognizes same-sex cou-
ples who marry abroad, although they
are not granted all the rights extended
to heterosexual married couples.

After lengthy community input, ideas
for Foster Citys newest park, Werder,
have been narrowed down to include most-
ly passive uses that maintain open green
spaces.
Werder will be the citys 22nd park and
will be mostly undeveloped without any
athletic fields or basketball courts added to
it. The city took over the park area, adja-
cent to State Route 92, from San Mateo
County and early proposals included con-
structing an ice rink or ferry terminal for
the property.
Those plans have died, however, and the
preferred alternatives for Werder now
include a space for mobile concession,
picnic tables, benches, limited parking,
open space, a maintenance storage area
and rest room.
Mayor Pam Frisella, however, is hoping
that the property will generate some future
revenue for the city from concessions such
as bicycle rentals or food sales.
It is worth looking at since the view is
priceless and the price was right, Frisella
wrote the Daily Journal in an email.
The county conveyed the park area to the
city at no cost.
A rest room is already on the Werder
property but was only open for about six
months and will need some refurbishing,
said Parks and Recreation Director Kevin
Miller. The county closed the park quickly
after it opened it because it did not have
the funds to maintain it, Miller said.
The city is also moving toward sprucing
up Destination Park, the triangular-shaped
parcel near Halibut Street that was once
considered for a fourth elementary school
in the city.
Both parks are accessible from the levee
pedway that wraps around Foster City.
Destination is technically considered
one of the citys parks already although it
has no amenities, Miller said.
So far, only conceptual preliminary
designs have been approved by both the
citys Parks and Recreation Committee and
Planning Commission. The City Council
will next consider how to approach the
parks at a public forum next week.
Early cost estimates to turn both spaces
into parks are about $2.2 million with
ongoing costs estimated to be about
$40,000 a year, mostly to maintain the
bathrooms, Miller said.
But Vice Mayor Charlie Bronitsky is not
ready to spend that kind of money now on
constructing new parks since the city is
facing a structural deficit in the coming
years.
As I have said publicly since the incep-
tion of this idea, I do not think it is good
timing to be spending city funds on two
new parks given the number of parks we
have, the financial condition of our city
and the fact that we will be able to develop
these later should we so choose,
Bronitsky wrote the Daily Journal in an
email.
Bronitsky would rather spend city funds
on economic development.
We are already projecting a return to
deficit spending in just two years and that
does not include any more spending on the
development of new parks, Bronitsky
wrote.
Councilman Art Kiesel hopes that if the
city does invest in Werder that it generates
some money for the city.
Destination Park, however, will likely
just be a destination from which the city
will not realize any income, Kiesel said.
Councilman Herb Perez thinks the 2.6-
acre Werder site is a great opportunity for
the city to modernize its approach to pub-
lic spaces and would also like to see
amenities and concessions that generate
revenue for the city, too. The pier adjacent
to the park is still owned by the county.
The public forum is 6:30 p.m., Monday,
Oct. 21, City Hall, 620 Foster City Blvd.,
Foster City.

Gov. Jerry
Brown signed
As s embl y Bi l l
5 3 2 into law
Sunday. The legisla-
tion, authored by
Assembl yman Ri ch Gordon, D-
Menlo Park, provides local housing
trust funds throughout California access
to additional nancial resources to sup-
port, construct and preserve affordable
housing.
As of January 2013, $8.8 million of
Propos i t i on 1C monies remained
available for newly established LTHFs.
These funds are scheduled to transfer into
the CalHOME Programin November of
2013, if not expended by that date. AB
532 ensures that these funds do not
expire, and can continue to be utilized in
California communities by existing hous-
ing trusts such as HEART of San
Mateo County throughout the state,
according to Gordons ofce.
Brown vetoed Senat e Bi l l 475
(Local Control Over Gun Shows)
which sought to close a loophole in cur-
rent law that allowed rearms and ammuni-
tion to be sold at the Cow Palace with-
out local input, according to the ofce of
state Sen. Mark Leno, D-San
Franci sco, who authored the bill.
The bill required the boards of supervi-
sors from both the county of San Mateo
and the city and county of San Francisco
to pass a resolution supporting a gun
show at the Cow Palace before such an
event could be held, according to Lenos
ofce.
Email hackers commit wire fraud
Two businesses in South San Francisco
reported to police last month that they were
defrauded out of more than $20,000 each by
computer hackers who posed as overseas ven-
dors who requested that payments be sent to a
different bank account, according to police.
The email hackers tricked the business
owners by using specic names of account
managers and by changing their email
addresses by just one letter or number. The
business owners did not notice the subtle dif-
ferences in the email addresses and believed
they were corresponding with their vendors,
according to police.
The actual vendors would commonly bill
the businesses by email and the bills would be
paid by wire transfer, according to police.
Police urge that the public verify all email
correspondence prior to sending money.
Hunter found in
California forest ate squirrels
SAN FRANCISCO The 72-year-old
hunter who was lost for more than two weeks
in a Northern California forest survived by
eating squirrels and other animals he shot
with his rie and by making small res and
packing leaves and grasses around his body to
stay warm, according to his family.
Deer hunter Gene Penaor was found
Saturday in Mendocino National Forest by
other hunters who carried him to safety in a
makeshift stretcher, the Mendocino County
Sheriffs Ofce said in a statement Sunday.
Penaor disappeared after heading out with
a partner during the rst week of deer hunting
season in the rugged mountains of far
Northern California, a trip he takes annually.
He goes hunting every year, and he comes
home every year, his daughter-in-law
Deborah Penaor said Monday outside Gene
Penaors small home in San Franciscos
Bernal Heights neighborhood. Wed gotten a
little complacent that he would always come
back.
Gene Penaor had separated from his hunt-
ing partner for a couple of hours as usual to
stalk deer. While they were apart, Gene
Penaor fell, hit his head and passed out,
Deborah Penaor said.

MARCO BORGGREVE
St. Lawrence String Quartet joined a Stanford Live performance last weekend.
By David Bratman
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
The St. Lawrence String Quartet brought
an important new work by a rising young
composer to its Stanford Live performance
at Bing Concert Hall Sunday.
Samuel Carl Adams, 27, of Oakland, is try-
ing to make a name for himself separate
from being the son of the Pulitzer Prize-win-
ning composer John Adams.
The younger Mr. Adams has had works
played by the San Francisco Symphony and
other noted ensembles. String Quartet in
Five Movements was commissioned by the
Spoleto Festival USA, of Charleston, S. C.,
for the St. Lawrence Quartet, and was rst
performed by the quartet there in June.
Mr. Adams has since revised the work, and
Sundays was its rst performance since the
premiere.
The piece is about 22 minutes long. All
ve movements sound rather alike, and what
they sound like is a musical depiction of
slinking along on little cat feet sliding on
ice. The music is mostly quiet and fairly

NATION 7
By David Espo
WASHINGTON Racing the clock, the
Senates Democratic and Republican leaders
closed in on a deal Monday night to avoid
an economy-menacing Treasury default and
end the two-week partial government shut-
down.
Weve made tremendous progress,
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid declared
after an intense day of negotiations with
Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell
and other lawmakers. Perhaps tomorrow
will be a bright day, he said, suggesting
agreement could be announced soon after
weeks of stubborn gridlock.
McConnell also voiced optimism
although not as much as Reid, D-Nev., had
and the details under discussion generat-
ed little if any satisfaction among rebel-
lious House conservatives.
Ofcials said that in the discussion to
date, the $16.7 trillion federal debt limit
would be raised enough to permit the
Treasury to borrow normally until mid-
February, if not a few weeks longer.
The government would reopen with
enough money to operate until mid-January
at levels set previously, and agencies would
be given exibility in adjusting to reduced
funding levels imposed by across-the-board
spending cuts.
Officials cautioned that those details
could change, and there was even more
uncertainty about other elements of a possi-
ble deal.
Under discussion was a one-year delay in a
$63 fee imposed on companies by the
health care law known as Obamacare for
everyone covered by an employer-spon-
sored plan. By days end, though,
Republican opposition to the provision
placed it in jeopardy just as Democrats
had earlier pushed back against the pro-
posed repeal of a medical device tax con-
tained in the health care law.
The two sides were also discussing a
requirement that individuals seeking subsi-
dies under the health care law to pay for cov-
erage would be subject to stronger income
verication measures.
The government has been partly closed
since Oct. 1, and the Obama administration
says the Treasury will run out of borrowing
authority to fully pay the nations bills on
Thursday.
The result has been a partisan showdown
that polls show is alienating all sectors of
the electorate except tea party supporters
and has been a big political loser for
Republicans.
As a midweek deadline for raising the debt
limit neared, the stock market turned posi-
tive on bullish predictions from the two
longtime antagonists at the center of the
talks, Reid and McConnell.
Though McConnell expressed optimism
about an agreement, his words were not as
strong as Reids. Weve made substantial
progress, and we look forward to making
more progress in the near future, he said as
the Senate adjourned for the evening.
At a mid-day visit to a charity not far from
the White House, President Barack Obama
blended optimism with a slap at
Republicans.
My hope is that a spirit of cooperation
will move us forward over the next few
hours, he said. And yet, he added, If we
dont start making some real progress both
in the House and the Senate, and if
Republicans arent willing to set aside
some of their partisan concerns in order to
do whats right for the country, we stand a
good chance of defaulting.
Stock prices, which had risen strongly
late last week on hopes of an agreement,
Shutdown deal in sight? Reid, McConnell optimistic

WASHINGTON After a weeklong inter-
rogation aboard a U.S. warship, a Libyan
al-Qaida suspect is now in New York await-
ing trial on terrorism charges, U.S. offi-
cials said Monday.
Abu Anas al-Libi was grabbed in a mili-
tary raid in Libya on Oct. 5. Hes due to
stand trial in Manhattan, where he has
been under indictment for more than a
decade on charges he helped plan and con-
duct surveillance for the bombings of U.S.
embassies in Africa in 1998.
Preet Bharara, the U.S. attorney for the
southern district of New York, confirmed
that al-Libi was transferred to law enforce-
ment custody over the weekend. Al-Libi
was expected to be arraigned Tuesday,
Bharara said.
President Barack Obamas administra-
tion took criticism years ago when it
decided to prosecute admitted 9/11 master-
mind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed in New
York, rather than at the naval prison at
Guantanamo Bay.
After reversing course, however, the
government has successfully prosecuted
several terrorism cases in civilian
courts.
A federal law enforcement official and
two other U.S. officials said al-Libi arrived
in New York on Saturday. The officials
insisted on anonymity because they were
not authorized to publicly discuss the mat-
ter.
Intelligence officials interrogated him
for a week aboard the U.S.S. San Antonio
in the Mediterranean. Interrogations at sea
have replaced CIA black sites as the U.S.
governments preferred method for holding
suspected terrorists and questioning them
without access to lawyers.
Al-Libis al-Qaida ties date back to the
terrorist groups early years, according to
court documents. That would make him a
valuable source of information about the
groups history.
Its unclear whether he could offer fresh
intelligence on the group, the core of
which has been battered and fragmented.
Al-Libi has longstanding health issues
and will get medical testing while in cus-
tody to determine whether he needs treat-
ment, U.S. officials said. Where exactly al-
Libi is being held and where that testing
would take place is unclear.
Al-Libi, whose full name is Nazih Abdul-
Hamed al-Ruqai, used to be on the FBIs
list of most wanted terrorists. His family
denies he was in al-Qaida.
Known as one of al-Qaidas early com-
puter experts, al-Libi is believed to have
used an early-generation Apple computer
to assemble surveillance photographs in
Kenya before a bombing there killed more
than 200. That information was presented
to Osama bin Laden, who approved the
bombing, a former federal law enforcement
official has said.

tuned in to a classical radio station for a
moment, occasionally appear.
Its an interesting work, and will doubt-
less grow on listeners after further expo-
sure. But it resembles a string quartet in the
same way that a Frank Gehry structure
resembles a building. The roots of similar-
ity are there, but its too offbeat to be
assimilated by any standards other than its
own.
The Adams quartet was surrounded on this
program with works by Haydn and
Beethoven. In the hands of the St.
Lawrence Quartet, the old masters are still
the best masters.
Haydns Quartet in D, Op. 71, No. 2, was
played as if it were by Bach. It was all intri-
cate Baroque gures and deep contrapuntal
harmony. Haydns wit snuck in gradually,
and took over by the lively nale. The
piece was full of bounding enthusiasm, and
made for a total delight.
Geoff Nuttall played rst violin in the
Haydn and Adams. He switched with Scott
St. John for Beethovens Quartet in A
Minor, Op. 132. This enormous late-period
quartet was all lyric energy. The urgent, and
surprisingly memorable, themes of the
scherzos trio, the Andante interludes of the
slow movement, and the nale, carried both
tension and passion.
Particularly striking moments came when
Nuttall, on second violin, and violist
Lesley Robertson growled together in the
middle parts of the ensemble, and in many
small, pulsating solos for cellist
Christopher Costanza.
The full chords making up most of the
main Adagio parts of the slow movement
were, like many in the Haydn, rich and
hymn-like. So was the encore, the slow
movement of Haydns Quartet in C, Op. 76,
No. 3, a theme and variations on an actual
hymn that he wrote for the Holy Roman
Emperor, Francis II. This tune is better
known for its later employment as the
German national anthem, Deutschland
ber alles. In this concert it was no
anthem, just a hymn played as gracefully as
the St. Lawrence Quartet can do it.

were down at the start of the day but then
pushed higher as the Senate leaders voiced
optimism. The Dow Jones industrial aver-
age rose 64 points.
Reid and McConnell met twice before
midafternoon, their sessions sandwiched
around a White House announcement that
Obama was calling them and the party lead-
ers in the House for the second time in less
than a week to discuss the economy-threat-
ening crises. The meeting was subsequently
postponed and it was not clear when it
might be rescheduled.
Any legislation would require passage in
the Senate and also in the House, where a
large faction of tea party-aligned lawmak-
ers precipitated the shutdown two weeks
ago despite the efforts of both McConnell
and Republican Speaker John Boehner.
Boehner met with McConnell during the
day, then with other House GOP leaders. His
spokesman, Michael Steel, later said, If
the Senate comes to an agreement, we will
review it with our members. Aclosed-door
session was set for Tuesday morning.
One conservative with a seat at the GOP
leadership table, Oklahoma Rep. James
Lankford, said that based on what he had
been told, the emerging package contained
no policy victories for his party. As for
raising the debt limit until February, he
said, Thats a lot of dollars.
In addition to other elements of any deal,
the two Senate leaders are expected to
announce that House and Senate negotia-
tors will seek a decit-reduction agreement
that could ease or eliminate a new round of
automatic federal spending cuts scheduled
to begin in January. While the current
round of these cuts fell on both domestic
programs and the military, the new reduc-
tions would hit primarily the Pentagon.
Democrats were resisting a Republican-
backed proposal to suspend a medical
device tax that was enacted as part of the
health care law.
The officials spoke on condition of
anonymity, saying they were not author-
ized to comment on the private discus-
sions.
The president and a wide array of econo-
mists, bankers and politicians in both par-
ties at home and backed by world leaders
have all warned that default could have
catastrophic consequences for both the
domestic and global economies.
The doubters alternatively say no default
will occur or that if it does, it wont be the
calamity that others claim.
But after holding center stage for much of
the current impasse, there was little doubt
that they had been shunted aside as Reid and
McConnell worked toward an agreement.
The prospect of a default and the possi-
bility of a follow-on recession largely
overshadowed the partial government shut-
down that has furloughed 350,000 federal
workers. Government research labs have
been affected, veterans services curtailed
and much of the Occupational Safety and
Health Organization shuttered.
With federal parks off-limits to visitors,
the impact on tourism prompted several
governors to petition Interior Secretary
Sally Jewell successfully to permit the
states to nance some re-openings.
The shutdown began on Oct. 1, at the
beginning of the budget year, after the
House adopted a strategy of conditioning
broad federal spending legislation to a pro-
posal to starve the three-year-old health
care law of funding.
The president and Democrats refused, and
the bruising struggle began, mergi ng
quickly with the fast-approaching deadline
for a debt limit increase.
In the two weeks since, public opinion
polls have charted a steady decline in
Republican approval ratings, and an
increase in the view that the partys law-
makers are acting out of political motiva-
tion.
The shutdown has proved problematic for
the GOP in the Virginia governors race,
which is on the ballot this fall. Public
opinion polls show the Democrat, Terry
McAuliffe, ahead of Republican Ken
Cuccinelli, who is caught between tea party
supporters on the one side and the publics
general unhappiness on the other, magni-
ed by the large presence of federal workers
in the state.

OPINION 9
Redwood City Planning
Commission gets it right
Editor,
Hats off to the Redwood City
Planning Commission, under the
leadership of Chair Ernie Schmidt,
in making the right decision on the
proposed building of the California
Way Water Storage Tank, Pump
Station and Supply Lines in
Emerald Hills. The tank capacity of
750,000 gallons measuring 23 feet
high by 80 feet in diameter was to
be at grade level in the middle of
the neighborhood. An issue at the
Oct. 1 meeting was the approval of
a Mitigated Negative Declaration
study, conducted by consultants
hired by Redwood City, and a subse-
quent recommendation to the
Redwood City Council.
In the two-and-a-half hour hear-
ing, the Planning Commission lis-
tened attentively to testimony from
residents living in the affected
neighborhood and extensively
questioned the consultants. Its 7-0
decision was to not approve the
study and to send the project back
to the Redwood City Community
Development Department to inves-
tigate and analyze additional
options. Among the options were
submerging the tank, inserting it
into the hillside and moving it
away from the very prominent road-
side location. The decision was
based on the commissions
expressed concern that, although
the study met the letter of the law,
it neglected to properly address the
aesthetic impact such a large and
out-of-scale project would have on
the neighborhood of single-family
homes.
The commission stated their mis-
sion is to be a good neighbor and
their decision reflects that commit-
ment. This is a great example of
participatory democracy. Perhaps
Washington can learn something
from Redwood City.

Government shutdown
Editor,
Bruce Joffes letter Shutdown
who is to blame? in the Oct. 9 edi-
tion of the Daily Journal explains
the Republican shutdown of govern-
ment clearly, accurately and com-
pletely. If that political party didnt
refuse to continue government func-
tion, then the government would be
functioning. Pretty simple.
Somehow Mr. Obama will be blamed
for running the state toward insol-
vency in the near future if he
enforces the law which makes us all
buy heath insurance. The Republican
answer is to run the government
into insolvency right now. How
cool is that?
Either we get what we want or the
House comes down on everyone.
Now theres statesmanship for you.
Scott Abramson (letter Is this lan-
guage appropriate? in the Oct. 10
edition of the Daily Journal) sees
that we should be trying to compro-
mise with these economic terrorists.
Lets not call them what they are as
that might make it harder to surren-
der later. Delusional thinking
brought to you by the flat earth
society.

Letters to the editor
By Mike Guingona
T
axpayers have paid more than
$100,000 for a transparent
and fair district line drawing
process. After residents voted to
change its county-wide elections for
members of the San Mateo County
Board of Supervisors last year, the
board agreed to form an independent
advisory committee to help create the
new electoral districts. Over the past
six months, the board touted its sup-
port for the community-driven
process. Several of the supervisors
who are up for re-election even stated
that they intentionally stayed out of
the redistricting process to avoid the
clear conict of interest. Last week,
all of this went out the window when
the board indicated its desire to reject
the advisory committees recommend-
ed maps in place of its own
Hundreds of residents, including
myself, volunteered our time to help
the committee draft district lines over
the course of 10 evening and weekend
meetings. All of the meetings were
public and map drafts were posted
online to maximize community input.
Residents many of whom had never
participated in a county-wide process
came from all
over the county
based on the prom-
ise that their voices
mattered. The city
councils of the
countys largest and
most diverse cities
also participated in
the process, with
Daly City and South San Francisco
supporting the maps produced by
county residents. As a result of this
collaborative effort, the committee
recommended three maps that best
protect the countys diverse communi-
ties.
After all this, it appears the super-
visors continue to favor the status-
quo keeping district lines created
under the previous at-large system.
Yes, the same at-large system which
was sued in 2011 for being discrimi-
natory toward the Asians and Latinos
who make up more than 50 percent of
the countys population. That lawsuit
cost taxpayers over a million dollars
and could have been prevented had the
supervisors put the issue to the peo-
ple as they were urged to do in 2009
by the civil grand jury. History seems
to be repeating itself as the board
ignores warnings of another discrimi-
nation lawsuit should it adopt the cur-
rent lines instead of a committee-
approved map.
Most importantly, however, this is
the countys rst redistricting
process. Every decade going forward,
the county will readjust district lines
to reect its changing population.
This is a unique opportunity to do the
right thing from the beginning and
leave a legacy that encourages, rather
than undercuts, civic engagement.
Instead of setting a precedent that
leaves the door wide open for politi-
cal gerrymandering, I urge the board
to respect the people of San Mateo
County by voting on a map created by
the community itself.
The board will likely vote on a new
district map at its Oct. 22 meeting.
Mike Guingona is a member of the
Daly City Council, which represents
the county's largest city.
Support civic engagement Importance of g and e
L
eave it to spell check to provide an insight into
political candidates favorite words and turn of
phrase.
All it took was a g and an e.
An errant nonsensical word in a lengthy Q&A with a
specific citys council candidates is what started the
unexpected revelation a ge hanging out in the
middle of a sentence for no good reason short of this
transcribers fat finger and sloppy, fast typing. Spell
check highlighted the suspicious non-word for consid-
eration but doesnt have a delete button allowing its
outright removal. The answer was instead trying the
replace all button which seemed to do the trick. A
secondary spell check pass through the document,
however, revealed my genius to be short-lived.
Spell check removed every use of the g and e
together. Most people, myself included, probably
never pay that much
attention to how often
those two letters help
form words. Even less
cognizance is given to
how often those letters
help form words beloved
by political hopefuls.
Take this question-and-
answer piece, for exam-
pl e.
Once spell check had its
devious way, peppered
throughout the article,
the candidates spoke of
toether, bigst challen
which should have read
together, biggest and challenge. Over and over again,
like a magnifying glass held over the candidates own
explanations of city highlights and issues, the phrases
and words affected by the spell check gaffe illustrated
familiar refrains.
Remove them and one is left with either a really
bizarre Mad Libs approach to political reporting or the
impression that, rightly or wrongly, many of the can-
didates have similar mindsets and homogeneous meth-
ods of communicating.
For example, the budget never was there another
ge word that popped up as frequently in the conversa-
tion as the catch-all for city finances. Of course, this
makes perfect sense. Without the budget, the city does-
nt have the ability to do much else.
General also gets some ink, particularly when refer-
ring to the general fund of the previously addressed
budget.
Engagement civic engagement, community
engagement. You name it and the candidates always
want to engage it. Guess that formal phrase sounds bet-
ter than plainly getting (or would that be tting?)
everybody to start paying attention, attend meetings
and stay informed ahead of votes, referendum threats
and elections.
The aforementioned together we must all work
together. We must come together. Partnerships, merg-
ers and shared services are hot ticket ideas lately which
means wait for it working together. Even invest-
ing in ones community and committing to making it a
great place to live takes team work. Again, together-
ness.
When it comes to election-oriented words, let us not
forget biggest and challenge, preferably used together
to address the citys greatest issue and hardest-to-solve
problems.
Manager got at least one mention and diligent also
earned an appearance because it is only fair to get the
city manager some credit and remind voters of the need
to stay on top of matters.
If budget is among the most common words uttered
by people running for office, challenge certainly gives
it a run for its money. Every city, it seems, has chal-
lenges. Thank goodness these council hopefuls are
ready and able to be diligent, at least generally speak-
i ng.
Passage is another popular refrain although it really
doesnt pop up as much when a jurisdiction isnt talk-
ing about proposed taxes or ordinances.
But the true test of these candidates mettle isnt in
what they say now, it is in what they actually do if
lucky enough to win. Candidates can say anything they
want when campaigning but post-election is when we
see if they follow their promises to the letter.

NEWYORK Stocks rose Monday,
helped by signs that Washington was
moving closer to a deal that would avert
a default by the U.S. government.
The stock market started the session
broadly lower after negotiations
between the White House and House
Republicans broke down over the week-
end. However, stocks erased those loss-
es in early afternoon trading following
news that President Barack Obama
would meet with Congressional leaders.
The market extended those gains after
Senate leaders in both parties said
progress was being made.
Democratic Majority Leader Harry
Reid opened the Senate session
Monday by saying he was very opti-
mistic we will reach an agreement this
week thats reasonable in nature. The
Republican Senate leader, Mitch
McConnell, seconded Reids view, say-
ing there had been a couple of very use-
ful discussions.
The Dow Jones industrial average
added 64.15 points, or 0.4 percent, to
close at 15,301.26. The index was
down as much as 100 points earlier in
the day.
The Standard & Poors 500 index rose
6.94 points, or 0.4 percent, to
1,710.14. The Nasdaq composite rose
23.40 points, or 0.6 percent, to
3,815.27.
The United States will reach the limit
of its borrowing authority Thursday,
according to estimates from the
Treasury Department. If the debt ceiling
is not raised, investors fear the U.S.
could default on its borrowings in the
coming weeks.
Mondays modest gains follow a
surge in the market last week on signs
of progress between Congressional
Republicans and the White House. The
Dow jumped 323 points on Thursday,
its biggest gain of the year, and rose
another 111 points Friday.
Investors continue to express hope
that a deal can be reached before the debt
crisis causes any lasting damage. In the
last few years, political deals over
major budget disputes have gone down
to the last minute.
We dont need some well-crafted,
detailed deal, said Quincy Krosby, mar-
ket strategist with Prudential Financial.
We just need to buy some time so they
can keep negotiating.
The U.S. government remains par-
tially shut down because House
Republicans want to attach conditions
to a budget bill that would scale back
the countrys new health care law.
President Barack Obama is insisting
that the government be reopened with-
out strings attached.

LONDON Industrial output across the
eurozone rebounded in August, ofcial g-
ures showed Monday, raising hopes that the
sector will contribute to a pick-up in eco-
nomic growth.
Eurostat, the EUs statistics ofce, said
industrial production rose 1 percent. The
increase was roughly in line with market
expectations and the biggest monthly rise
since July 2011. It also recouped Julys
equivalent decline summer gures can be
volatile given the holiday season.
The increase suggests the sector will con-
tribute to the eurozone economic recovery
if September shows a rise. Recent surveys
have suggested that the sector continued to
grow during September, though not spec-
tacularly given the headwinds facing the
eurozone, such as high government debt
and near-record unemployment in many
countries. The elevated value of the euro
may also put a dampener in the months
ahead as it potentially makes eurozone
exports less competitive in the internation-
al marketplace.
The recovery in eurozone manufacturing
should gain momentum in the second half of
the year, said Anna Zabrodzka, economist
at Moodys Analytics. Nevertheless, euro
area growth risks remain weighted to the
downside.
The economy of the 17 European Union
countries that use the euro emerged from its
longest-ever recession in the second quar-
ter, when it grew 0.3 percent from the pre-
vious three-month period.
There are hopes that the third quarters
growth rate will be higher after recent sur-
veys and indicators have suggested that the
recovery is getting more broad-based and
not overly dependent on Germanys per-
formance. Eurostats gures even showed
Greeces industrial output rising by a
monthly rate of 1 percent. Portugals
bounce was even sharper at 8.2 percent.
Industrial output across the eurozone was
nevertheless 2.1 percent lower than the
same month the previous year. That was
slightly worse than Julys equivalent 1.9
percent decline. The sector is still around
12.5 percent smaller than before the global
nancial crisis erupted in 2008.
Policymakers will be encouraged by the
ongoing recovery trend, but will be remind-
ed of the huge surplus of capacity that per-
sists compared to before the crisis struck,
which means any growth is unlikely to ring
inflationary alarm bells for quite some
time, said Chris Williamson, chief econo-
mist at financial information company
Markit.

SACRAMENTO, State ofcials knew a
computer upgrade for the states unemploy-
ment insurance program that delayed tens of
thousands of benet checks was vulnerable
to problems before it was installed, accord-
ing to a report from The Sacramento Bee.
The newspaper reported ofcials underes-
timated how many unemployment claims
would be affected by a glitch in the nearly
$188 million system upgrade implemented
over Labor Day weekend.
The data-conversion problem delayed job-
less benefits for nearly 150,000
Californians, skewing reporting of initial
jobless claims by the U.S. Department of
Labor.
The governors office ordered the
Employment Development Department in
late September to begin paying backlogged
claims immediately, putting off a determina-
tion on payment eligibility. The agency
announced in early October that it had
cleared the backlog of claims.
Employment Development Department
ofcials had believed the problem in con-
verting old unemployment claims to the
new system would affect only a small num-
ber of people whose claims could be
approved by hand. They initially cheered
the computer upgrade, which appeared at
rst to be a success.
In a Sept. 11 email obtained by the Bee
through a public records request, the depart-
ments deputy director for information tech-
nology, Gail Overhouse, indicated to other
IT ofcials that the problem was larger than
expected.
She wrote that the unemployment insur-
ance program knew this situation would
occur, however, they believed the number of
claims that would be routed for manual pro-
cessing would be much less, so they planned
on handling it as a manual workload.
Well, it turns out we have a high number
of claims getting routed into the queue,
Overhouse wrote.
Another employee at a customer-service
center emailed department ofcials a day
after the new system went live to highlight
problems with opening new claims and
helping claimants.
Emails indicate the governors press
ofce directed ofcials to push a message
that reduced federal funding was part of the
problem. In one message, Employment
Development Department spokeswoman
Loree Levy wrote that the governors ofce
was requesting estimates on the employee
overtime needed to address the delayed pay-
ments in order to bolster that message.
The agency has apologized for the delay
and says employees were working around
the clock to process backlogged claims.
Levy told the Bee that tests conducted prior
to the computer changes suggested the
problem would be manageable.
The state has had difculty with other big
technology projects, including an upgrade
to the state payroll system that was aban-
doned earlier this year.
Glitch known before changes delayed in unemployment checks
Microsoft's phone
update to feature driving mode
NEWYORK Microsoft is updat-
ing its Windows software for cell-
phones to accommodate larger
devices and make it easier for
motorists to reduce distractions while
driving.
It's the third update to Windows
Phone 8 software since the system's
release a year ago. Devices with this
update will start appearing in the
coming weeks, and older phones will
be eligible for a free upgrade, too.
Something that may appeal to
motorists: a new Driving Mode will
automatically silence incoming calls
and texts so that you can focus on the
road. You also can configure the fea-
ture to automatically send out a reply
to say that you're driving.
It can be activated automatically
when the phone is linked wirelessly
with a Bluetooth device in the car,
such as a headset. Apple has a Do Not
Disturb feature for iPhones, but that
needs to be turned on manually.
What the Driving Mode won't do,
however, is block outgoing calls or
texts. And there will be ways to over-
ride it. The feature won't stop a
teenager from texting while driving,
but it will help reduce distractions for
those who want that, says Greg
Sullivan, director for Microsoft's
Windows Phone business.

Second Levis stadium worker dies
SANTACLARA Construction is slated
to restart Tuesday at the new $1.2 billion
San Francisco 49ers showcase stadium after
police and re investigators determined a
truck drivers death was a workplace acci-
dent and not a crime.
The delivery truck driver was crushed early
Monday by a bundle of rebar being unloaded
from his truck, ofcials at the scene said.
Its the second worker death at the construc-
tion project.
An ambulance rushed the severely injured
worker to a local hospital, where he died,
according to a spokesman for
Turner/Devcon, the construction company
building the stadium.
We are deeply saddened to conrm that
the driver has passed away as a result of his
injuries, spokesman Jonathan Harvey
said.
Harvey said state workplace safety of-
cials told them Monday that while their
investigation is ongoing and could take
months, the jobsite has been deemed safe
and is permitted to reopen.
The man was an employee of Gerdau
Ameristeels Napa Reinforcing Steel facili-
t y, a subcontractor working on Levi
Stadium, said Gerdaus spokeswoman
Kimberly M. Selph. His name was not
released.
In a statement, the 49ers said their
sincerest thoughts and prayers are with
the family, friends and co-workers affect-
ed by this tragedy. The team also said
there were plans to have support on-site
Tuesday to help workers with their emo-
tions following the tragedy.
The stadium is in Santa Clara, about 40
miles south of Candlestick Park, which it is
replacing. Construction is slated to be n-
ished in July, and crews have been working
in high gear to meet that deadline. Ofcials
say the accelerated work plan involves a
highly coordinated scheme to maximize
efciency and avoid delays.

Right about now, there isnt a sweeter
sports gig in the county than being the
Serra High School quarterback. Said head
coach Patrick Walsh of the position Friday
night, after a 50-3 win: We have two good
quarterbacks. We have a luxury right now.
You never know what is going to happen
during a season. I was really happy with
both their efforts.
This weeks Honor Roll starts with Matt
Faaita and Anthony Smock, who both saw
action Friday night and were very effective.
The two signal-callers combined to go 6 of
12 passing for 186 yards and two touch-
downs.
As a whole, Serras offense continues to
improve and help them win ball games.
Besides their quarterbacks, the Serra run-
ning game was dynamic. Kava Cassidy ran
the ball 11 times for 121 yards and pair of
touchdowns. And Gabriel Cabezon came in
late during the game and made the most of
his four touches he scored twice and
racked up 101 yards on the ground.
Finally, for the second straight week, the
Serra defense held a West Catholic Athletic
League team to under 200 yards of offense
(on Friday, it was actually less than 100)

Every great volleyball team has a go-to
player. And with the Peninsula Athletic
League Bay Division being an all-out war
every single game, these players must come
up huge for their squads on a consistent
basis.
After all, thats what makes them great.
Over in Belmont, Carlmont has enjoyed
the luxury of Ella McDonough for some
time now and in this, her senior season as
the go-to Scot, it appears No. 10 is putting
the team on her shoulders and carrying the
load like many blue and white greats have
before her.
Shes really grown into that role this
year of being the man for the team, said
Carlmont head coach Chris Crader. Its like
in basketball. Its one thing to score a lot of
points and another to want the ball and
score with the game on the line. Ella is com-
fortable in big situations and that gives
your team a lot of condence. The whole
team believes shes going to score.
Last week was a prime example of what
McDonough brings to the Carlmont attack
and defense in what was a six-match week
for the Scots. McDonough was the team
leader in kills for all six of those matches, a
stretch of volleyball when Carlmont went
4-2, including a big bounce-back victory
against San Mateo in Peninsula Athletic
League Bay Division play two days after
a ve-set thriller found the Scots on the los-
ing end.
In all, the Carlmont outside hitter and its
biggest weapon racked up 70 kills for an
average of 11.4 a match.
Shes hitting the ball really well all year
long, Crader said. And I guess thats all
been a part of the plan to have her take as
many swings as possible [and] lead us in
kills. And shes been stepping up day after
day after day.
And so today, its for her efforts that
McDonough is the San Mateo Daily Journal
Athlete of the Week.
The week began with an inspired effort by
I
ts interesting to hear peoples per-
ceptions when it comes to football
game results, especially when it
comes to the Peninsula Athletic League.
Take Mills 14-6 win over El Camino
Friday, for example. Nearly every person I
talked to following that game be it
coaches from other teams or ofcials
believed that game to be an upset.
I, however, dont believe that. It seems
most people favored
the Colts based on
how well they played
against Aragon in
Week 2. Meanwhile,
Mills wasnt getting
a whole lot of atten-
tion, despite build-
ing an identical pre-
season record as El
Camino 3-1.
Turns out, the
teams could not have
been more evenly
matched. While El
Camino lost to Aragon, which is now 4-1
overall, the Vikings lone loss came to a
then undefeated Los Altos team a game
Mills lost by a pair of points. Since then,
Los Altos has been beaten leaving the
Eagles at 4-1 as well, same as Aragon.
Acomparison of the rest of the schedule
for both Mills and El Camino shows that
Fridays game really could have gone either
way. In fact, I had Mills the favorite in the
game against the Colts. The two basically
played the same caliber of teams in the pre-
season, but it was the Vikings averaging
more than 30 points per game, compared to
21 points per contest for the Colts. Both
defenses had been stingy all season and it
added up to a defensive battle that put the
onus on the offenses making plays.
Mills has a bit more of a passing threat
than El Camino and that proved to be the
difference Friday.

BEIJING With an injured Kobe Bryant
on the bench, the Los Angeles Lakers will
be looking at different player combinations
when they play the Golden State Warriors.
We have guys competing for jobs,
Lakers coach Mike DAntoni said at practice
Monday. Theyre trying to earn jobs. So
its a hard time for these players but theyre
doing well.
The Lakers play two exhibition games
against the Warriors: in Beijing on Tuesday
and in Shanghai on Friday.
Although he made the trip to China,
Bryant is expected to be out for much of the
season with a torn Achilles tendon and an
ailing right knee.
The China trip is part of the NBAs Global
Games, an effort to promote the leagues
global brand. The league played its rst
international game when Washington visit-
ed Maccabi Tel Aviv in Israel in 1978. By
the end of this season, the NBA will have
played nearly 150 of them, including 18 dur-
ing the regular season.
Pau Gasol said the Lakers have enough on
offense to make up for Bryants absence.
Its just a matter of having everybody
else healthy so we have as many guys as
possible to be able to make up for Kobes
absence, he said.
Golden State guard Stephen Curry knows
that with Gasol and Steve Nash the Lakers
can pose plenty of trouble.
They dont have Kobe and probably
wont for a little bit, but theyve still got a
lot of talent, Curry said.
Bryant is one of the most popular NBA
players in China and was the focus of media
attention at Mondays practice. Amid ques-
tions about his teammates and his latest sig-
nature shoe design, he looked back to last
season when the Lakers struggled with
injuries and were swept by San Antonio in
the rst round of the playoffs.
I think it was an unfortunate year,
Bryant said. We got so many injuries, dec-
imated with injuries. But ... were looking
forward to getting back out there this year
and making up for lost time.

MORAGA Saint Marys coach Randy
Bennett must serve a ve-game suspension
and wont be allowed to recruit off campus
this season as the NCAA has upheld penal-
ties against the successful mid-major pro-
gram for recruiting violations.
In making the announcement Monday
from the NCAAs infractions appeals com-
mittee, the athletics governing body denied
Bennetts appeal that included the claim of a
procedural error involved. The school said
Bennetts penalty would begin on Dec. 30 at
midnight for ve games, including one non-
conference contest.
In March, the NCAA put Saint Marys on
four years of probation for a failure to mon-
itor its mens basketball program, reducing
scholarships by two for the 2014-15 and
15-16 seasons.
While the College is disappointed with
the decision, we respect the NCAA appeals
process and will comply fully with the
penalties given to our athletics program,
the school said. Saint Marys remains com-
mitted to excellence in its athletic pro-
grams, compliance with NCAArules and the
colleges proud tradition of providing our
students with positive, life-changing expe-
riences. We look forward to the upcoming
mens basketball season and continuing the
important work of educating and developing
our talented student-athletes.
Saint Marys will still be allowed to par-
ticipate in the league tournament and the
NCAA tournament but cant play in presea-
son or in-season tournaments not already
contractually obligated to attend.
The Gaels, seeded 11th, lost 54-52 to
sixth-seeded Memphis in this years NCAA
tournament and nished the season 28-7.

Two Oaks named as
Players of the Week
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
Menlo College soccers Andrew Cota and
Kayla Cisneroz were rewarded for their
stellar weeks of play when they were
named Cal Pac offenisve and defensive
Players of the Week respectively.
Kayla Cisneroz was named the Cal Pacs
Defensive Player of the Week in a recent
announcement from the Cal Pacs main
office. The Morgan Hill native anchored
the conferences stingiest defense as
Menlo rolled off two wins to stay on top
of the Cal Pac with a perfect 4-0 record, 7-
1 overall.
The junior defender won a number of crit-
ical balls in the air and helped control the
pace of the game in wins against UC
Merced and Simpson. The Lady Oaks,
which have allowed only five goals in
eight matches this season, now have won
seven straight, including five shutouts.
For the second time this season,
Menlos Andrew Cota has been named the
Cal Pacs Offensive Player of the Week.
Cota, a senior forward from Santa Clara
repeats the Player of the Week honor, hav-
ing earned the selection a month ago.
He powered in four goals to lead a Menlo
offense that scored big wins over Pacific
Union and Simpson to remain atop the
North Division of the Cal Pac at 4-2, 5-3-
2 overall.
Cota is in the top four in the Cal Pac in
points per game, goals per game, shots
per game, and shots on goal along with
leading Menlo with 10 goals on the sea-
son.

and single digits points. Daniel Lavulo was
the big man on defense. He led the Padres
with nine tackles, including four for a loss.
Other notable gridiron performances
include Terra Novas John Wallace. While
the Tigers have been known for throwing
the ball at will this season, it was actually
the running attack that carried Terra Nova
past Sequoia in its Peninsula Athletic
League Bay Division opening win. Wallace
rushed for 130 yards on 23 carries and two
touchdowns. His teammate, Jaylend Jones,
led the receiving attack with six catches for
79 yards and a TD. Jones was one of four
Terra Nova receivers to catch at least four
balls.
Sequoias offense hung in with Terra
Novas they were only outgained 346 to
303. Cameron Greenough did the heavy lift-
ing for the Cherokees. He had 124 yards of
total offense. But Sequoia might have done
more damage were it not for crazy defending
by Trevor Utler and David Melton, who
combined for 26 1/2 tackles. Melton had
six of those for a loss. Wyatt DeShane was
also in double digits for Terra Nova.
Josh Sved of Mills football was instru-
mental in the Vikings rst Lake Division
win a 14-6 holdoff of El Camino. Sved
caught six passes for 92 yards and a score
all in the second half. He also had a key
block that sprung quarterback Marquis
Adkins for Mills second score of the day.
Also picking up a big win in the Lake
Division was Hillsdale. And a lot of it was
Giancarlo Boscaccis fault. The senior run-
ning back was Carlmonts worst nightmare
Friday afternoon. No. 21 rushed for 272
yards on 28 carries and found the end zone
three times. His quarterback, Cole
Carrithers, had a solid game as well, com-
pleting 11 passes for 179 yards and two
scores. Brandon Butcher caught five of
those throws for 120 yards and a TD.
A tough non-league schedule for
Woodside finally paid dividends for the
Wildcats in a 42-27 win against Half Moon
Bay. Robert Wang and Josh Holman were a
big reason why Woodside won. Wang com-
pleted 13 of 29 passes for 284 yards and a
pair of touchdowns. Holman was the main
beneficiary and target for Wang. Holman
caught seven passes for 194 yards and both
of Wangs scoring passes.
Robby Baumgarten of Burlingame foot-
ball was huge in keeping the Panthers unde-
feated on the year. The Panthers Swiss
Army knife, Baumgarten returned a kick 64
yards for a score, added a pair of intercep-
tions including a 10-yard pick-6 and
rushed for 57 yards on just three carries in
the Panthers 58-0 win over Kings
Academy Friday night.
Over on the volleyball court, Devin Joos
of Menlo-Atherton made quite the debut and
proved she was worth the wait after transfer-
ring from St. Francis-Mountain View. In her
rst match, in a key PAL Bay Division
matchup against Carlmont, Joos nished
with a match-high 27 kills. Against
Aragon, she nished with 17 kills and 16
digs as the Bears remained undefeated and in
rst place in league play.
Also in the PAL, Woodside Wildcats sen-
ior Christine Alftin notched a match-high
31 kills in a ve-set win over a tough
Burlingame squad. Sophomore Jesse Larkin
added 10 kills in that match. Burlingame
outside hitter Morgan McKeever tabbed a
team-high 17 kills, while Tatum Novitsky
had 14 kills and Bianca Alvarez had 12
kills.
In West Bay Athletic League play,
Victoria Garrick, Natalie Marshall and
Mamie Caruso of Sacred Heart Prep volley-
ball helped the Gators capture the Aragon
tournament by going a perfect 5-0, drop-
ping only one set in the process.
Garrick paced the offense with 46 kills
and 24 digs, Marshall pumped out 85 assists
and Caruso had 30 digs.
Finally in the pool, Nick Bisconti of
Menlo School water polo scored three
goals, including the game winner, as he
helped the Knights all but clinch the
Peninsula Athletic Leagues Bay Division
water polo title with an 8-7 win over sec-
ond-place Menlo-Atherton. Bisconti con-
verted a 5-meter penalty shot with 47 sec-
onds left to play to give the Knights the
lead.
And staying in the Valparaiso area, the
Sacred Heart Prep Gators traveled to Irvine
over the weekend and went 3-1 in the S and
R Sport tournament. The Gators advanced to
the championship game where they fell to
Harvard-Westlake, 15-8. In two matches
Friday, SHP beat Irvine and Foothill 16-5
and 13-9, respectively. In the seminals,

improved to 5-0 overall and opened the
Bay Division with the win.
No, the upset was Sequoia holding Terra
Novas high-octane offense to just 26
points about half of what the Tigers
have been averaging this season.
For Sequoia, however, it was verication
that the Cherokees do belong in the Bay
Division. When I talked to coach Rob
Poulos late in the summer, he jokingly said
be careful what you wish for. Deep in his
heart, Im sure he was condent the team
could compete in the Bay Division, despite
being in the Lake only three seasons ago.
But Im also sure there was a little nagging
feeling somewhere in his brain that won-
dered how his team would fare playing
against the best the PAL has to offer.
The task doesnt get any easier for the
Cherokees. They are now tasked with slow-
ing down another prolic offense when
they host Menlo School Friday night.

When the Daily Journal sports depart-
ment myself and sports reporter Julio
Lara sat down Thursday to put together
the primer on the PAL football season, one
of the criteria we used in ranking teams was
strength of schedule.
My biggest fear was we would uninten-
tionally offend a coach with the ranking
we gave their preseason schedule.
What I was condent of, however, was
the ranking we gave to the Woodside
schedule, which, along with Terra Nova,
had one of the strongest non-league sched-
ule of all PAL teams.
Despite going 0-4 during the non-league
portion of the schedule, it appears to have
paid off as the Wildcats basically doubled
up Half Moon Bay in their Ocean Division
opener, 42-27, racking up 520 yards of
offense in the process.

After a false start a few weeks ago,
Menlo-Atherton has, ofcially, hired a new
wrestling coach to front its program.
Nathan Pantoj, a sixth- and seventh-
grade English and history teacher at
Beechwood School in Menlo Park, a has
more than 10 years coaching experience in
both the Clovis Unied School District
a hotbed of wrestling in the state and
here on the Peninsula. He is also one of the
founders of the East Peninsula Wrestling
Club, which serves athletes in the fourth
through eighth grades. The club nished
third in the Peninsula Middle School
League last season and one of his athletes,
a sixth-grade girl, took fourth in the girls
Middle School State Championship in
Vallejo.

ALAMEDA The worst game of Terrelle
Pryors career wont cost him his job as the
Oakland Raiders starting quarterback
now or anytime soon.
One day after Pryor threw three intercep-
tions, including two in the nal 4 1/2 min-
utes of a 24-7 loss to Kansas City, Raiders
coach Dennis Allen said he remains com-
mitted to the young quarterback and has no
plans to make a change.
I dont think he played as well as he
would have liked or what we wanted him to,
but again, hes still a young player, Allen
said Monday.
Hes still got a lot of growing to do and a
lot of getting better to do. Hes a talented
player and were going to continue to try to
build with him and try to grow with him.
Still, Allen acknowledged Pryors play
was pivotal in Oaklands second-half col-
lapse against the Chiefs.
Most of the mistakes were self-inicted.
The 24-year-old struggled to get plays
called on time, resulting in three delay of
game penalties. He also called the wrong
play during one drive, and called for the
wrong pass protection on another.
One of Pryors interceptions came while
the quarterback was backpedaling and threw
a high pass that was picked off.
He was also sacked 10 times and had a
career-low rating of 45.7.
What disappoints me is we lost a game
because of me, thats how I look at it,
Pryor said. Defensively we played great,
offensively we played great. It was just No.
2. He didnt play well.
I deserved them hits because I made bad
plays. Little stupid mistakes like that, I
deserved to get pile-driven into the ground.
While Oaklands locker room was mostly
barren after the team fell to 2-4, Pryor
answered questions from reporters for near-
ly 15 minutes.
Raiders to stick with Pryor at quarterback
McDonough in a huge PAL showdown
with division-leading Menlo-
Atherton. In what turned out to be a
ve-set battle in favor of the Bears,
McDonough shined and led an overall
great effort for the Scots. She recorded
21 kills in that match to complement
Amelia Tupou and her 21 assists.
The loss was disappointing and it
dropped the Scots into a packed center
of great PALtalent trying to now catch
up with Menlo-Atherton. But
Carlmont did not dwell on the loss
very long.
In Thursdays match against San
Mateo, the outside hitter recorded 12
kills and hit .450 from the eld in
what was a smooth three-set victory
for Carlmont.
The PAL is the best its ever been,
Crader said. In terms of quality and
depth, its the best its ever been.
There are a lot of great outside hitters
and for us to compete, were going to
need our outside hitters to play great,
too. Ella has been a great leader for us
and she really helps the younger play-
ers get better.
The win was great momentum for the
Scots, who then went on to play at the
12-team Mountain View-Los Altos
tournament where, after saving three
match points in a semifinal win
against Burlingame, they went on to
fall to host Los Altos and take a sec-
ond-place trophy back home.
McDonough led the Scots in kills
during all four of their matches.
She recorded seven in an intra-dis-
trict affair with Sequoia that was
over in two sets.
Then, against Harker, the Scots ral-
lied from one set down to win the
match. McDonough had 12 kills and
two blocks.
In that seminal battle against fel-
low PAL member Burlingame,
Carlmont saved three match points,
rallying from decits of 8-13 and 11-
14 in the nal set to beat the Panthers
for the second time in 11 days.
McDonough had nine kills, four digs
and two aces.
But, the emotion of that seminal
proved too much for Carlmont in the
nal, where they lost to Los Altos in
two sets. Still, McDonough showed
her consistency, nishing the match
with nine kills.
Shes really taken her play to
another level this year, Crader said.
And were really going to need that.

been done to prevent what is now the second deadly acci-
dent at the site.
An elevator mechanic, 63-year-old Donald White, was
killed at the stadium in June when he was struck by a coun-
terweight while working in a shaft.
White worked as an elevator mechanic for more than 40
years and was employed by Schindler Elevator Corp. An
investigation into his death by the Occupational Safety
and Health Administration is underway.
The stadium project is expected to open its doors just in
time to host the 50th Super Bowl, in 2016, in the heart of
the Silicon Valley. The airy, open stadium would have the
largest lower bowl in the league, ensuring the 68,500 fans
are close to the action.
The construction costs are being paid by $800 million in
seat and luxury box sales, along with a 20-year, $220 mil-
lion naming rights agreement with Levi Strauss and Co.
announced in May.
As rookie Sonny Gray to have thumb surgery
OAKLAND Athletics rookie right-hander Sonny Gray
will have surgery on his left thumb to repair a torn liga-
ment.
Gray injured his glove hand on a comebacker by
Detroits Prince Fielder in a 3-0 Game 5 loss in the A: divi-
sion series Thursday night, which ended Oaklands season.
He underwent an MRI exam Friday. The date of surgery is
yet to be determined.
In addition, 2012 Gold Glove right elder Josh Reddick
is likely to have arthroscopic surgery on a sprained right
wrist that twice landed him on the disabled list for the two-
time reigning AL West champion As. Reddick will be
examined by Dr. Mark Belsky, a hand specialist in Newton,
Mass., who performed surgery on Reddicks left wrist in
November 2011.
Right-hander Jarrod Parker will rest a strain in his right
forearm.

SANTACLARA One decisive 18-
play drive told the story of San
Franciscos successful day on offense.
The 49ers (4-2) churned out 89 yards
and used up 9 1/2 minutes of clock
time, from late in the third quarter to
just less than seven minutes left.
Kendall Hunters 6-yard touchdown
run put his team ahead of Arizona by
nine points on the way to a 32-20 vic-
tory Sunday.
Vernon Davis produced a career per-
formance with 180 yards receiving
and touchdown catches of 61 and 35
yards, while Frank Gore ran for 101
yards in his second 100-yard day this
year. Quarterback Coin Kaepernick
found his groove again in both the
running and passing games, and San
Francisco looked its most balanced
yet.
We wanted to win every scorecard,
every round, offensive coordinator
Greg Roman said. Then, at the end of
the game, we wanted to knock them
out. But they are a tough defense. It
took 60 minutes to wear them down.
And, for the second straight week,
the 49ers vaunted defense forced four
turnovers leading to points. During
the Niners three-game winning
streak, they have forced 10 turnovers
and turned them into 54 points on
nine scoring drives including a
pick-6 by Tramaine Brock in a 34-3
rout of the Houston Texans on Oct. 6.
That felt good, right tackle
Anthony Davis said. We need it.
Good offenses are balanced. It felt pro-
ductive.
Davis declined to accept the game
ball for best offensive performer.
Davis vowed to give it to Kapy, as
he is now referring to the QB.
He could bequeath it to somebody
else, Harbaugh said. Thats
allowed.
When Hunter scored to put the 49ers
ahead 29-20, safety Tyrann Mathieu
threw Hunter and was agged for a per-
sonal foul as Arizonas defense let its
frustration show.
Harbaugh credited the offensive line
and even the unsung plays, such as
wide receiver Anquan Boldins block
as fullback Bruce Miller went up the
middle for 3 yards on a fourth-and-1 to
sustain the long drive.
We really start feeling good when
were moving the chains like we were
doing and when were moving the
clock down, continue to hold onto the
football, Miller said. But the big
thing was nishing with a touchdown
to make it a two-score game on them.
That was huge for our defense and our
team.
The reigning NFC champion Niners
now begin a two-week stretch leading
into their bye week in which they play
at Tennessee on Sunday, then travel to
London to face Jacksonville at
Wembley Stadium.
Theyre happy to be on a nice roll
again after the rst back-to-back loss-
es of third-year coach Harbaughs
tenure against Seattle and
Indianapolis in Weeks 2 and 3.

Dodgers top Cardinals
By Beth Harris
LOS ANGELES Led by a pair of preco-
cious rookies, the Los Angeles Dodgers got
themselves right back into the NL champi-
onship series.
Hyun-Jin Ryu outpitched Adam
Wainwright with seven innings of three-hit
ball, and Yasiel Puig celebrated twice on his
RBI triple that helped Los Angeles beat the
St. Louis Cardinals 3-0 Monday night in
Game 3.
Adrian Gonzalezs RBI double ended a 1-
for-17 drought for the Dodgers with runners
in scoring position. An ailing Hanley
Ramirez added a run-scoring hit as Los
Angeles handed Wainwright his rst post-
season loss and trimmed its decit to 2-1 in
the best-of-seven series.
The playoffs are one-day momentum
swings, Dodgers manager Don Mattingly
said. Right now I feel like weve kind of
grabbed it.
Puigs youthful exuberance, which ener-
gized the Dodgers as they surged from last
place to first during a torrid midseason
stretch, was on full display in the fourth
inning.
The 22-year-old Cuban defector was so
excited when he connected that he raised his
arms immediately and stood in the batters
box to watch the ight of the ball toward
right eld, clearly thinking it was going
out of the park.
Once he realized it wasnt, Puig started
charging. He roared into third base and
clapped his hands before raising them again
as the sellout crowd of 53,940 cheered.
Puig had reason to exult, having struck
out seven times in the series before getting
his rst hit.
He brings unbelievable energy every
day, Ramirez said. When we spoke to
him, he told me, I got it today, and he did.
Hes a great player.
Game 4 is Tuesday at Dodger Stadium,
with Ricky Nolasco scheduled to start
against St. Louis right-hander Lance Lynn.
But there was speculation the Dodgers
might switch to Zack Greinke, especially
after they passed over Nolasco with short
notice in the previous round.
Everybodys trying to do the best they
can to get to the World Series, Puig said
through a translator.

NEWYORK Warren Buffett likens it to
a nuclear attack. Economists warn that gov-
ernment spending on programs like Social
Security would plunge. The Treasury says
the economy would slide into a recession
worse than the last.
Yet you wouldnt know that a U.S. debt
default could amount to a nightmare from
the way many companies and investors are
preparing for it: They arent. The assump-
tion seems to be that in the end,
Washington will find a way to avert a
default.
Doomsday is nigh, and everyone
shrugs, said Nicholas Colas, chief market
strategist at ConvergEx Group, an invest-
ment brokerage in New York.
Brian Doe, a wealth adviser at Gratus
Capital Management in Atlanta, has 35
clients whove entrusted him with $50 mil-
lion for safekeeping. He isnt losing sleep
over a potential default. Neither are his
clients, apparently. Not one has called him
about the issue, he said.
Ive not done anything, he said. He puts
the odds of default very low. People in
Washington are stupid but not that stupid.
Marcello Ahn, a fund manager in Seoul, is
more prepared, sort of. He doesnt think the
U.S. will default. But if it does, the econom-
ically sensitive stocks of shipbuilders and
chemical companies will get hit especially
hard. So hes held off buying them.
But he hasnt sold a single stock or made
any big moves to protect his portfolio.
We are not taking actions based on the
worst-case scenario, he said.
That worse case is inching closer. The
Treasury says it will run out of money to
pay its bills if Congress doesnt increase its
borrowing authority by Thursday. That
includes paying interest and principal on
already issued U.S. Treasurys, considered
the most secure nancial bet in the world.
Treasurys are used as collateral in trillions
of dollars of loans rolling over every day.
They are also the standard against which the
riskiness of stocks and bonds are measured.
A default would cast doubt on the value of
those assets and throw the global nancial
system into chaos.
Which is a key reason many seem unpre-
pared for it: Why bother if you cant really
protect yourself? Or, as an ofcial response
from Frances Total oil company put it,
Nobody can imagine the consequences, so
we dont have any plans.
Neither apparently does Sony Corp.
There isnt a whole lot that one company
can actually do, CEO Kazuo Hirai said
Friday at the companys Tokyo headquar-
ters.
Still, the business world isnt entirely
unprepared. Big U.S. companies have been
hoarding cash since the nancial crisis for
fear of another credit crunch. And nancial
regulators, major banks and mutual funds
have moved to shore up their defenses, too.
One area of concern is Treasury bills that
mature shortly after Thursday. The fear is
that owners of those bills may not get their
money returned to them in case of a default.
As a result, the Hong Kong stock
exchange is demanding that investors who
use those bills as collateral in certain trades
post more of them because they are riskier
now. Funds that usually are filled with
Treasury bills are scrambling to protect
themselves, too. In a rare move, Fidelity
Investments and JP Morgan Chase said last
week they had purged their money market
funds of all U.S. bills coming due soon after
the default deadline.
Owners of U.S government bonds due
later are less likely to get stiffed. But
theyre still vulnerable. In the event of a
default, Standard and Poors and other cred-
it-rating agencies will consider those bonds
higher risk and likely downgrade them.
That could cause their prices to plummet,
guaranteeing losses to sellers who cant
wait until the bonds mature. But the specter
of a downgrade has yet to scare many.
As U.S. default nears, investors shrug off threat
workers to contribute 4 percent toward
their pension and 9.5 percent toward
medical benefits.
Crunican said the unions had two
weeks to accept the deal before it would
be taken off the table.
The unions said the parties were about
$16 million apart over four years.
Workers from the two unions, which
represent more than 2,300 mechanics,
custodians, station agents, train opera-
tors and clerical staff, now average
about $71, 000 i n base sal ary and
$ 11, 000 in overtime annually, the tran-
sit agency said. BART workers currently
pay $92 a month for health care and
contribute nothing toward their pen-
si ons.
BART is the nations fifth-largest rail
system. It serves about 400,000 riders
each weekday.

DO YOU HAVE KNEE PAIN?
Experience relief with advanced, non-surgical treatments.
Do you wake up with
knee pain?
Does knee pain limit your
level of activity?
Has your doctor
recommended surgery?
Do you have pain when
walking up or down
stairs?
Have you run out of
options to relieve your
pain?
If you answered yes to
any of these questions,
you are a candidate
for our non-invasive
treatment program.
Meet Dr. Brian Mitchell
Millions of individuals give up their
active lifestyle to knee pain because they
feel they are too young for major surgery.
I am here to tell you theres an effective
and FDA approved alternative to surgery.
If you suffer from any degree of knee pain,
I invite you to regain control of your life by
visiting our state of the art facility.
How Do We Treat Knee Pain?
We use a non-invasive, multi-
disciplinary approach to provide
complete care and dramatically
improve patients results. We cus-
tomize our treatment programs for
every individual. This may include
visco-supplementation to lubricate
the joint, individualized rehabili-
tation to strengthen the muscles
surrounding the injury, or bracing
for stabilization and support.
What Is visco-
supplementation?
Visco-supplementation, also known
as joint therapy, supplements the
knee with a natural occurring sub-
stance called hyaluronic acid that
is often decient in arthritic knees.
This lubricates the knee joint to
reduce friction between the bones
of the knee to provide signicant
pain relief.
Why is individualized reha-
bilitation Important?
The muscles surrounding the
injury can become weak and stiff
making it difficult to do everyday
tasks. Individualized rehabilita-
tion reduces inflammation and
increases range of motion, flex-
ibility and strength.
Will I feel better right away?
Most patients feel relief in a matter
of weeks and can go back to their
daily activities.
Will insurance cover
the cost?
Yes, most insurance providers and
Medicare will cover treatment upon
approval of your benets.
Are the treatments
successful?
Weve treated thousands of patients
and over 90% have experienced
signicant pain relief and regained
mobility.
How will I know if this
is right for me?
If youre suffering from knee pain,
your rst step is an evaluation with
Dr. Brian Mitchell.
What are patients saying?
I arrived to my rst appointment in a wheelchair because I couldnt bear any weight on my right
leg. The physician and therapists worked together to create a plan specically for me. I quickly
progressed from a wheelchair, to a walker, to a cane, to full weight on my leg. The treatments and
one-on-one rehabilitation gave me my life back. Diana V., Huntington Beach, CA

This months glitch-lled roll-
out of the health insurance market-
places created by federal law is a
business opportunity for brokers
and agents, but regulators warn
that it also opened the door for
those who would seek to line their
pockets by misleading con-
sumers.
New Hampshires insurance
commissioner sent a cease-and-
desist letter last week to an
Arizona company he accused of
building a website to mislead
health care shoppers into think-
ing it was the ofcial marketplace.
The site was taken down Friday.
Regulators in Washington state
and Pennsylvania also have told
agents to change websites that
seemed likely to convince con-
sumers they were connecting to
government-run sites.
Connecticuts insurance depart-
ment warned agents and brokers
this summer that it will take
action against agents who mislead
consumers or design sites to repli-
cate the state-run exchange.
An organization run by the top
insurance regulators in each state
recently issued an alert on the
potential for scams related to the
marketplaces. The National
Association of Insurance
Commissioners advised con-
sumers that bogus sites have been
spotted and warned people to
beware of unsolicited calls by peo-
ple claiming they need personal
information to help them enroll in
insurance.
Not all insurance agents are
licensed to sell insurance on the
exchanges, and buying a policy
from one of them could leave con-
sumers without the tax subsidies
that make the health insurance
affordable. Consumers who seek
an insurance professionals help
are urged to make sure they know
who theyre dealing with.
We all need to be on the look-
out right now. We dont want con-
sumers to get confused, said
Jessica Waltman of the National
Association of Health
Underwriters, a trade association
representing agents and brokers.
Susan Johnson, the Northwest
regional director for the U.S.
Department of Health and Human
Services, said while some brokers
are passionate about helping, oth-
ers are seeking to take advantage.
In one such case, a state-
licensed broker in suburban
Seattle bought the domain name
washingtonhealthplanfinder. org
and built a website with fewer
computer glitches than the states
new health insurance marketplace,
wahealthplannder.org. The bro-
kerages site told customers:
Welcome to the Exchange! in
big print until the state insurance
commissioner asked for changes
to avoid confusion.
You dont want to go to the
wrong portal, Johnson said.
The insurance broker, Jeff
Lindstrom, said he thought he was
being creative when he bought 40-
50 domain names to bring in new
customers. He said he is not trying
to confuse the public. Lindstroms
toll free phone number was also
very close to the ofcial call cen-
ter number, said Stephanie
Marquis, a spokeswoman for
Washingtons insurance commis-
sioner.
In New Hampshire, newhamp-
shirehealthexchange.com offered
free price quotes on insurance, but
it wasnt afliated with the state or
the federal government, which is
running New Hampshires ofcial
online market. The site was taken
down days after the state sent a
cease-and-desist letter.
It put itself forward as offering
health insurance through the
exchange, and consumers are natu-
rally misled by that into thinking
its the government site, said
Deputy Insurance Commissioner
Alex Feldvebel.
The insurance department took
action after getting a complaint
from a small business owner who
called a phone number on the mis-
leading site.
He called and ended up talkng
to someone who said, Unless you
Brokers simplify, confuse health exchange shopping
By Matt Sedensky
THEASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO Stung by a reces-
sion that sapped investments and
home values, but expressing
widespread job satisfaction,
older Americans appear to have
accepted the reality of a retire-
ment that comes later in life and
no longer represents a complete
exit from the workforce. Some
82 percent of working Americans
over 50 say it is at least some-
what likely they will work for
pay in retirement, according to a
poll released Monday by the
Associated Press-NORC Center
for Public Affairs Research.
The survey found 47 percent of
working survey respondents now
expect to retire later than they pre-
viously thought and, on average,
plan to call it quits at about 66, or
nearly three years later than their
estimate when they were 40. Men,
racial minorities, parents of
minor children, those earning less
than $50,000 a year and those
without health insurance were
more likely to put off their plans.
Many people had experienced a
big downward movement in their
401(k) plans, so theyre trying to
make up for that period of time
when they lost money, said
Olivia Mitchell, a retirement
expert who teaches at the
University of Pennsylvania.
About three-quarters of working
respondents said they have given
their retirement years some or a
great deal of thought. When con-
sidering factors that are very or
extremely important in their
retirement decisions, 78 percent
cited nancial needs, 75 percent
said health, 68 percent their abili-
ty to do their job and 67 percent
said their need for employer bene-
ts such as health insurance.
Graphic designer Tom
Sadowski, 65, of Sterling, Va. ,
had expected to retire this year,
but the recession caused his busi-
ness to fail and his savings to take
a hit. With four teenage daughters,
he knew he had to put retirement
off.
At this age, my dad had already
been retired 10 years and moved to
Florida, he said. Times are differ-
ent now for most people.
Sadowski now plans to retire in
about ve years, but even then, he
expects to do some work for pay.
He notes that some of his friends
without children have begun to
retire, but he tries not to dwell on
his shifted plans.
For a moment, maybe, I have a
twinge of, I wish that were me,he
said. But you cant live that way.
The shift in retirement expecta-
tions coincides with a growing
trend of later-life work. Labor force
participation of seniors fell for a
half-century after the advent of
Social Security, but began pick-
ing up in the late 1990s. Older
adults are now the fastest-growing
segment of the American work-
force; people 55 and up are fore-
cast to make up one-fourth of the
civilian labor force in 2020.
That growth has paralleled a ris-
ing interest in retirements that are
far more active than the old
stereotype of moving to Florida,
never to work again.

Aman who answered the phone declined to comment at
the company identied as running the site, Arizona-based

In Pennsylvania, a consumer law group this summer
tipped off regulators about a licensed brokers website that
featured a logo mimicking the state seal and telling visi-
tors: Welcome to the Pennsylvania Health Exchange!
The broker took down PAhealthexchange.com a day after
the state insurance departments enforcement bureau called.

ons green jacket and $11,910 in prize
money yesterday morning. He received an
additional $1,000 for having the biggest
pumpkin from California at the competi-
tion. The 40th anniversary of the weigh-off
competition drew a crowd of both young and
old.
The second and third prize pumpkins also
came from Napa County.
With only two pumpkins to go in the com-
petition, Miller said the odds were 50-50
that hed win.
Millers grandchildren joined him on the
stage after he won. A photo of his young
grandson with the champion pumpkin land-
ed on the Internet and prompted someone to
say that the pumpkin was so large it proba-
bly ate his grandsons twin sister. Others
worked to try to gure out the pumpkins ori-
gin.
The current world record heaviest pumpkin
weighed at 2,032 pounds. The new record
was set this past Saturday at a weigh-off in
Morgan Hill.
So how do they all do it?
Eda Muller, wife of Half Moon Bay Vice
Mayor Farmer John Muller, grew a 1,104-
pound pumpkin this year, beating her hus-
bands pumpkin.
Its the seed, location and soil, Eda said.
It can get a disease at the drop of a hat. Its
hard work and takes friends who can help
you with different services.
For the past 31 years, local musician Jim
Stevens played his Americana music at the
weigh-off.
I just wonder how they get them into the
truck, Stevens said. Lots and lots of
friends.
Mayor Rick Kowalczyk turned out for the
festivities as well, noting that the day was
another great reason to be in Half Moon Bay.
The second and third place winners were
also from Wine Country. Napas Tim
Mathison came away with the second place
prize with his 1,894-pound pumpkin. He was
the world record setter this past weekend at
the 23rd annual Giant Pumpkin Weigh-Off in
Morgan Hill, but pumpkins that won prizes
in any other weigh-off competitions are not
eligible in the Half Moon Bay competition.
Third place went to Leonardo Urena, also of
Napa.
There are certain rules participants must
follow, including bringing in specimens that
are healthy and undamaged, free of rot, holes
and cracks through the cavity, chemical
residue and soft spots. To be classied a
pumpkin, the specimen must be 75 percent
yellow and, or, orange.
The rst place winner is paid $6 per pound
of the pumpkin, while second place gets
$2,000, third place receives $1,500, fourth
place gets $1,000 and fth through 10th
places go away with $500 each. A special
prize for the most beautiful pumpkin went to
Los Altos Hills Vince Zunino.
Pleasant Hill, Ore.s Thad Starr won the
grand prize last year with a 1,775-pound
pumpkin.
To continue its fall festivities, the city will
host an art and pumpkin festival this week-
end, 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Oct. 19 and 20 on Main
Street in Half Moon Bay. The top pumpkins
will be on display this weekend and there
will be entertainment, a parade, haunted
house, arts and crafts, costume contests and
other activities.

Groom, who worked with Callagy when she
sat on the San Mateo City Council, called
him a good strategic thinker and all-around
great guy.
County Manager John Maltbie wants diver-
sity on his team which Callagy will con-
tribute, Groom said.
An email notice of Callagys pending exit
made the rounds to San Mateo city employees
but San Mateo County has not yet made its
formal announcement.
The countys job posting for the position
lists the salary range as $158,954 to
$198,702.
The posting states that the deputy county
manager in charge of criminal justice realign-
ment will pursue new initiatives, evaluate
policy to ensure the county is best using its
resources, monitor the performance of his
assigned departments and keep the county
manager informed of the overall condition of
criminal justice-related programs and issues.
Fourteen people applied for the job and two
were interviewed by District Attorney Steve
Wagstaffe, County Counsel John Beiers and
himself, Horsley said.
While Horsley joked that he had to make
clear to Callagy that in his new job hell no
longer be able to simply order people to do
things. But Horsley said Callagy has many
transferable skills honed through decades
with the department and overseeing projects
both successful and less so like the attempt to
merge police services with the city of
Burlingame.
Alot of things hes done in San Mateo are
pretty admirable, Horsley said.
Groom also pointed to Callagys experi-
ence with budgets and thinks hell bring an
interesting perspective and new set of eyes to
allocating the Measure Ahalf-cent sales tax
revenue.
Callagy graduated from Notre Dame de
Namur University in 1984 and simultaneous-
ly joined the San Mateo Police Department
and enrolled in law school at Santa Clara
University.
In 2007, the department named then-cap-
tain Callagy to the newly-created role of
deputy chief and, in 2010, the San Mateo
City Council approved a contract to let him
take over the Burlingame Police Department
for a year while the two cities mulled a shared
services agreement. However, subsequent
study showed a merger would result in less
savings than originally projected and
Callagy returned solely to San Mateo while
interim Burlingame police chief Ed Wood was
named to the permanent post in 2011.
Callagy said the decision to apply for the
job was mutual between him and the coun-
t y.
Callagys departure isnt a huge surprise
because he has been courted by other cities
previously and is very talented, said San
Mateo Mayor Jack Matthews.
We created the position of deputy chief for
him in hopes of keeping him longer and it
worked for a while but we are grateful for the
length of time he stayed and really wish him
well, Matthews said.
Matthews did not know if the deputy chief
position will remain after Callagy leaves.
Horsley and Groom said Callagy may tack-
le other county challenges in his new posi-
tion but right now the focus will be criminal
justice and changing the pattern of recidi-
vism.
We certainly get good information from
the state and the sheriff but he will also be a
really good addition, Groom said.
Despite his enthusiasm for his new venture,
Callagy said he will miss the San Mateo
Police Department.
Its been a really great time. I really cher-
ish my time here, he said.

The last few years have seen Redwood
Citys downtown become a destination
and the budget balanced without dipping
into reserves but several of the candidates
say now is not the time to rest on its lau-
rels.
The city has a toehold on greatness,
said Seybert who along with Gee joined
the City Council in 2009 as Howard exit-
ed. Were at a point where the momen-
tum will continue or stall.
Howard, a resident since 1981, said
shes ready to bring her experience and
leadership back to the council now, par-
ticularly as the shift moves from reno-
vating downtown to keeping the effort
going.
Han, who has called Redwood City
home for all but ve college years, is
focused on ensuring that momentum can
be shared widely and not just those who
can afford pricey housing.
I want to make sure as we grow we
dont leave anyone behind, Han said.
Hans priorities include responsible
development which he said includes hav-
ing developers give back to the city
though fees and benets. His preference,
he said, are creative alternatives and
inclusive development that can keep
Redwood City a little more working
class.
Unlike the other candidates, Rankin
said she is also motivated by a desire to
get residents in their 30s and 40s who
have historically abdicated involvement
in city government to get involved.
Shes very vocal about public safety and
said she is ready to ght legislatively
when necessary for Redwood City.
One of the big issues coming down the
road is the continued taking by the state
of extra property taxes, Gee said.
For Redwood City, that will mean the
loss of $4 million to $5 million.
The worry over nances underscored
nearly all the candidates self-professed
best ideas. For Seybert, it is living with-
in the citys means although he admitted
that might sound boring. Howard
would like to hold a series of town hall
meetings outside a traditional City
Council meeting to discuss the communi-
ty benets project, a plan to help the city
capitalize on development by receiving
things like playing elds or affordable
housing units.
Gee also looks to the budget, putting
liabilities on a balance sheet and consid-
ering selling services to other cities. For
Redwood City, Gee is also ready to
explore everything in city contracting
beyond its current agreements like the
shared re department with San Carlos.
Howard and Rankin both agree future
consolidation probably means working
with San Mateo County, especially as the
city is the county seat and jurisdictional
lines are already blurred.
Han isnt so sure
about expansion.
Some consolidation
makes perfect sense
because cities on the
Peninsula bleed into
each other but resi-
dents like their own
police and re depart-
ments and giving up
local control should-
nt advance much fur-
ther, he said.
Han would put
affordable housing
back on the agenda
and Schmidt is
thinking about the
next generation of
Redwood City resi-
dents. He suggested
created a Youth City
Council to give the
council a direct link
to the younger set.
Another major
nancial challenge
for Redwood City
all cities actually
are ballooning pen-
sion and benet lia-
bilities.
Redwood City
enacted a two-tier
pension system before the state followed
suit, Seybert said.
Gee said the city needs to look at total
compensation rather than only salaries
when negotiating or weighing changes.
We have to look at everything togeth-
er, not just one piece of it, he said.
The city is on the right path but con-
versations over pensions and health care
obligations need to happen, particularly
in light of the pending health care reform
charges, Rankin said.
Nearly all the candidates said the city
needs to continue working proactively
with its labor groups to evaluate benet s
packages but Han believes developers
can also be mandated to contribute and
the city nd other moneymakers.
Schmidt also prefers creative revenue
enhancement.
I dont think cutting should always be
the number one answer, he said.
Like the others, Han complimented
how far downtown has come but said res-
idents dont see that reected in city serv-
ices.
The downtown precise plan, the blue-
print of city development, also drew a
mixed bag of opinion by the candidates
but all agreed it is time for a revisit as new
housing and with it parking needs
come.
Seybert and Gee said the city didnt
think big enough the rst time around.
We simply didnt see this kind of suc-
cess coming, Seybert said.
Howard is glad the plan was challenged
in court over its historic inventory
because she had had similar concerns and
said another pass at it should revisit
allowable heights and study trafc prob-
lems. She called the effort managing of
success, phase two.
Parking also trou-
bled Rankin, using
her own downtown
ofce front as an
example of how the
downtown plan creat-
ed some challenges
for existing tenants.
In her case, Rankin
said she was required
to do remodeling and
move her entrance
away from the front.
Just as the candi-
dates have disparate
views, each agreed
the Redwood City
community is also
lled with differences
of opinion often
over development
concerns, like the
now-defunct Cargill
Saltworks site, the
placement of the new
county jail and the
Finger Avenue subdi-
vision which a
Superior Court judge
just sent back to the
city drawing board.
The reason,
Schmidt said, is
passion and the citys role is to nd
balance and bring the sides to the table.
Sometimes residents get the perspec-
tive we are against them, Schmidt said,
adding that his role on the council would
be nding and promoting commonality.
Seybert said that passion also raised its
head with Measure Q, the referendum over
planned towers now known as Marina
Shores, and the planned development of
Petes Harbor. The benet is an airing of
views and eventually the best outcome
for the city, he said.
I think this wrestling is a good ten-
sion, he said.
A common element through all these
recent controversies is water, Gee said.
From recycled water programs to Petes
Harbor, the connection is the communi-
tys strong opinions about what happens
to and on its water which is why a group
like the Inner Harbor Task Force is so
important, he said.
Another reason for these community
battles is fear of change, Rankin said.
Residents are used to the way things
look, she said, so without city or devel-
oper outreach, they push back.
When you dont know, youre quick to
ght it, she said.
But while the candidates are largely
happy with the city they call home, is
there any tax, fee or ordinance they would
change if given the chance?
For Schmidt, Ranking and Howard, the
answer is no although Howard has high
praise for the citys business utility tax.
Seybert would do away with the state
takeaways and Han would halt jail expan-
sion. Gee looks a little closer to home,
suggesting the lowering of park fees to
help promote quality of life.

WORLD 28
By Paul Larson
MILLBRAE I
recently received a
phone call from a
local realtor who
was shocked to find
an urn with
cremated remains
located in the closet
of an empty house under renovation. He
had been told by someone working on the
property to just throw these cremated
remains into a dumpster, which didnt seem
right, and he wanted my advice. I told him
that under no circumstances are cremated
remains to be thrown into a dumpster. In
cases where unidentified human remains are
discovered, the County Coroners Office is
to be notified so they can investigate and
determine the appropriate course of action.
Discovering unidentified or seemingly
abandoned cremated remains is disturbing
but not uncommon. Stories of cremated
remains being found on their own in an
unoccupied house or apartment is a problem
that is significant and needs to be addressed.
Ive met with countless families at the
Chapel of the Highlands whove selected
cremation as the final disposition. Even
though these families have decided on
cremation, this is still not the final step of
the process. The next-of-kin is required to
inform us on where the cremated remains
are to go after the physical cremation has
taken place. The cremated remains can
either to be inurned in a cemetery, scattered
at sea or taken to the residence of the next-
of-kin. Those who select to keep the
cremated remains at home feel a desire to
have their loved ones ashes close to them,
or simply have not decided on a final
location to place their loved ones cremains.
The key concept for these families to
understand is that keeping cremated remains
at home is a temporary solution and not a
final destination. Some may think that the
cremated remains will be passed down to
following generations and cared for in their
family, but this idea is not being realistic. It
is important to be prepared with a plan to
place the cremated remains in a more
permanent location such as a cemetery or
having them scattering at sea. At the Chapel
of the Highlands we regularly assist families
by guiding them toward a comfortable
solution when these types of situations come
up. Even after long periods with cremated
remains being kept at home we can always
help families in making the correct decisions
and to plan for the future.
Remember, if cremated remains are kept
at home, no matter how well intended,
unforeseen situations can and do come up.
The next-of-kin, who has custody of the
cremated remains, may become ill or pass
away without leaving instructions on what to
do if the cremated remains are left behind.
No matter what the situation you can call us
at the Chapel of the Highlands and we will
help in finding an appropriate solution for
placement of the cremated remains.
If you are still keeping cremated remains
at home please plan a permanent disposition
by leaving instructions in a will, with family
or an executor. This will help insure that the
cremains will be given a final resting place
and shown the respect they deserve.
If you ever wish to discuss cremation,
funeral matters or want to make pre-
planning arrangements please feel free to
call me and my staff at the CHAPEL OF
THE HIGHLANDS in Millbrae at (650)
588-5116 and we will be happy to guide you
in a fair and helpful manner. For more info
you may also visit us on the internet at:

Cremated Remains Found

STOCKHOLM Three American profes-
sors won the Nobel prize for economics
Monday for shedding light on how stock,
bond and house prices move over time
work thats changed how people around the
world invest.
Two of the winners Eugene Fama, 74,
and Lars Peter Hansen, 60 teach at the
University of Chicago. The third, Robert
Shiller, 67, is a professor at Yale University
and is well-known as a creator of the well-
known Case-Shiller index of home prices.
The three economists were honored for
separate research that collectively expanded
the understanding of asset prices.
Beginning in the 1960s, Fama showed
that prices change so quickly and efciently
to reect new information that investors
cant outperform markets in the short term.
This was a breakthrough that helped popu-
larize index funds, which invest in broad
market categories instead of trying to pick
individual winners.
Two decades later, Shiller reached a sepa-
rate conclusion: That over the long run,
markets can often be irrational, subject to
booms and busts and the whims of human
behavior. The Royal Swedish Academy of
Sciences noted that the two mens ndings
might seem both surprising and contradic-
tory.
Hansen developed a statistical method to
test theories of asset pricing.
The three economists shared the $1.2 mil-
lion prize, the last of this years Nobel
awards to be announced.
Their methods have shaped subsequent
research in the eld and their ndings have
been highly inuential both academically
and practically, the academy said.
Monday morning, Hansen said he
received a phone call from Sweden while on
his way to the gym. He said he wasnt sure
how hell celebrate but said he was still
working on taking a deep breath.
Shiller, famous for having warned against
the bubbles in technology stocks and hous-
ing that burst over the past two decades,
said he responded with disbelief when he
received a phone call about the Nobel.
People told me they thought I might
win, Shiller told the Associated Press. I
discounted it. Probably hundreds have been
told that.
Of the three winners, Fama was the rst to
expand the knowledge of how asset prices
move. His work helped revolutionize
investing by illustrating how hard it was to
predict the movement of individual stock
prices in the short run. It was a nding that
spurred wider acceptance of index funds as
an investment tool.
Shiller showed that in the long run, stock
and bond markets tend to behave more irra-
tionally than economic fundamentals would
suggest. That encouraged the creation of
institutional investors, such as hedge
funds, that take bets on market trends.
In the late 1990s, Shiller argued that the
stock market was overvalued.
Three U.S. economists receive
Nobel for work on asset prices
By Karin Laub
BEIRUT The destruction of Syrias
chemical weapons stockpile is well under-
way, and the agency overseeing it the
Organization for the Prohibition of
Chemical Weapons has won a Nobel Peace
Prize. But despite global praise and a smooth
start, the mission faces difcult challenges,
from tight deadlines to safety risks for
inspectors trying to get to sites near ght-
ing. Theres also political fallout. The deci-
sion to make Syrian President Bashar Assad a
partner in destroying the stockpile appears
to have restored some of his legitimacy and
boosted his chances of staying in power
longer, while angering his opponents who
now balk at attending political transition
talks the U.S. hopes will begin in November.
Alook at the mission:
WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?
Syria became a full member of the OPCW
on Monday, and U.N. Secretary-general Ban
Ki-moon has selected Sigrid Kaag of The
Netherlands, a Middle East expert, to lead the
joint U.N.-OPCWteam charged with destroy-
ing Syrias chemical weapons. By Oct. 27,
Syria must submit a plan for the destruction
of its stockpile. By Nov. 1, the inspectors
must complete verication of the inventory
and render production, mixing and lling
facilities unusable. By Nov. 15, they must
adopt a plan for destroying the stockpile,
aiming for completion by mid-2014.
HOW BIG IS SYRIAS
CHEMICAL ARSENAL?
Syria has briefed the OPCW, which is not
releasing the information. The U.N. says
Syria has about 1,000 metric tons of chemi-
cal weapons materials. Former OPCWofcial
Ralf Trapp and disarmament expert Jean-
Pascal Zanders believe Syria has about 300
metric tons of sulfur mustard, a blistering
agent, and about 700 metric tons of the nerve
agents sarin and VX. The OPCW wont say
how much of the nerve agent is weapons-
ready, but suggests much is in precursor
form, as separate components.
HOW MANY SITES?
Ahmet Uzumcu, the head of the OPCW, was
quoted as saying Monday that his team has
visited ve of at least 20 sites. U.S. chemical
weapons nonproliferation expert Amy
Smithson said that among the sites are four
production facilities near the towns of Sara,
Khan Abu Shamat, Homs and Hama; six stor-
age facilities near Sara, Homs and Hama and
the towns of Furqlus, Latakia and Palmyra;
and a research and development site in
Damascus.
HOW DANGEROUS IS THE MISSION?
Sixty OPCWinspectors and U.N. staff are
on the ground, and the team is to grow to
100. The OPCWchief told the BBC that one
abandoned site was in rebel-held territory and
routes to others led through it, preventing
access. The U.N. is to arrange safe passage
for inspectors, but rebels have not promised
cooperation. The risks were illustrated when
regime warplanes bombed the rebel-held
town of Sara last week, near one of the like-
ly chemical weapons facilities. Over the
weekend, two mortar shells struck 300
meters (yards) from the Damascus hotel
where the inspectors are staying.
HOW REALISTIC IS THE TIMETABLE?
Trapp, Zanders and Smithson said destroy-
ing munitions and machinery with blow
torches, sledgehammers and bulldozers by
Nov. 1 is achievable. Destroying the chemi-
cal arsenal will be more complicated. Steven
Bucci, a former U.S. defense ofcial, said the
target dates are wildly optimistic, noting
that it is taking the U.S. and Russia decades
to destroy much larger stockpiles.
Tough job for team destroying
