The ofcer who shot and killed a
South San Francisco teenager at a
gas station in June feared for his life
and the shooting was a lawful
response to the boys actions that
night, according to a statement by
San Mateo County District Attorney
Steve Wagstaffe
yesterday.
Family and
friends of the
slain teen,
Derrick Gaines,
said yesterday,
however, they do
not believe the
ofcer needed to
shoot him. His mother and great
aunt were planning a speakout and
rally Sept. 20 to demand justice for
Gaines, who they say was a victim
of police brutality.
Sept. 20 would have been the
teens 16th birthday.
His great aunt Dolores Piper,
however, told the Daily Journal in
an emotional response yesterday
that she is not sure the rally will
take place after the District
Attorneys Office announced its
findings yesterday. Gaines lived
with Piper from about the age of 3.
Gaines was shot June 5 at the
Arco gas station at about 9 p.m.
after he and another teen were
stopped by South San Francisco
police Ofcer Joshua Cabillo, who
suspected the teen was carrying
drugs or possibly a weapon due to
his suspicious behavior.
The ofcer told Gaines to put his
hands in the air and the teen started
to comply before eeing the scene.
The ofcer gave chase and caught
up to him quickly before grabbing

Maurice Tanis genre-bending musical representation of Oblique Americana will be making their Peninsula

The El Deora was a custom after-
market variant of the Cadillac
Eldorado in the 1970s. An extrava-
gant boat of a vehicle, the once-lux-
urious land sharks are typically
trashed specimens of patina a
perfect namesake for the Maurice
Tanis genre-bending musical repre-
sentation of Oblique Americana.
Tani, 58, the fuel behind the 77 El
Deora band, draws from this
hideous Frankenstein of a ride,
lending itself to everything from
good ol honky-tonk rock to poetic
romance.
The East Bay and San Francisco
are the bands usual stomping
grounds, but 77 El Deora will be
making their Peninsula debut at
Angelicas Bell Theatre tonight in
Redwood City.
Tani has played in everything
from a 1960s R&B tribute band to
his current group started in 2004.
Regardless of various denitions,
singing and art are functions of
tension and release, Tani said.

A new charter school should open
next fall after the Redwood City
Elementary School District Board
of Trustees approved the proposal
from local parents last night.
Earlier this summer, Connect
Community Charter School submit-
ted a proposal to the district in hopes
of opening a school on the east side
of town that features shared leader-
ship, social-emotional learning and
an inquiry-based approach. On
Tuesday, the petitioners approved
the proposed memorandum of
understanding. On Wednesday, the
board also voted to move forward.
Now, Connect supporters can start
raising funds, publicizing the new
school in hopes of generating
enrollment and looking for a home
to open the new school.
Its a unique opportunity but also
a unique model that we dont have.
As a school district of choice, it
does offer an opportunity for our
school district and parents, said
Superintendent Jan Christensen.
Trustees agreed with the superin-
tendent. Trustee Shelly Masur
thanked the petitioners for their
responsiveness and expressed
excitement about the possibilities of
working together.

Fake coyotes used to scare
geese at Michigan beach
HOWELL, Mich. A Michigan com-
munity thats fed up with geese fouling
up a beach is hoping fake coyotes
encourage the birds to land elsewhere.
The Livingston County Daily Press &
Argus of Howell and WHMI-FM report
that the beach on Thompson Lake at
Howell City Park is expected to be
closed for the rest of the summer swim-
ming season because of elevated E. coli
levels. The beach was shut down this
month and goose poop is blamed.
Debbie Mikula is director of the
Howell Area Parks and Recreation
Authority. She says the fake coyotes
have shown some success in keeping the
birds away. Theyre being moved at night
to trick the geese into thinking theyre
real.
The hope is that the beach about 45
miles northwest of Detroit will reopen
next year.
FX orders 90 more episodes
of Anger Management
LOS ANGELES FX is ordering 90
more episodes of Anger Management,
Charlie Sheens TV comeback vehicle
after being red from Two and a Half
Men.
The unusually large order reects the
original agreement that FX made for the
sitcom that stars Sheen as a therapist.
As part of the deal,
FX set a ratings tar-
get for eight of the
rst 10 episodes of
A n g e r
Management. The
show reached the
threshold, earning an
automatic 90-
episode order, the
channel said.
The round gure of 100 episodes is the
benchmark for series syndication, and
thats the future for episodes that have
shown first on FX, said producer
Debmar-Mercury, a Lionsgate sub-
sidiary.
Anger Management will go into syn-
dication in September 2014, the compa-
ny said Wednesday. Its a model that
Debmar-Mercury used with the Ice Cube
sitcom Are We There Yet? and on
Tyler Perrys House of Payne and
Meet the Browns.
FX Networks executive vice president
Chuck Saftler said hes condent the pro-
ducers and cast will be able to produce
the full order during the next two years
after quickly turning out the rst 10.
In July, Sheen said the prospect of con-
tinuing is as exciting as hell, and
added, I dont think 90s gonna be
enough.
FX called Anger Management
cables highest-rated new comedy series
this year, averaging 4.5 million total
viewers.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A Norteo gangmember facing three life
sentences for two separate attacks on rivals,
including one that left him facing attempted
murder charges, settled the dual cases in
return for four years in prison.
Christian Serrano DeLeon, 22, pleaded no
contest to felony assault with a rearm and
gun and gang charges in an Aug. 14, 2011
shooting of a Sureos foot and pleaded no
contest to felony assault and gang afliation in
a Dec. 27, 2010 assault. He was out of custody
on the earlier case when he committed the
second.
DeLeon, who receives credit of 390 days
against his sentence and must serve 85 percent
of the remainder, asked
not to be sent to prison
until Sept. 30. He remains
in custody at the county
jail without bail until that
time.
Authorities arrested
DeLeon after linking him
to the shooting of Jose
Monroy, 28, who was
found bleeding from a
gunshot wound to his foot
on the 200 block of Grove Street. A few days
later, another gunshot victim showed up at
Seton Medical Center and deputies tracked
down the suspects, including DeLeon.
Authorities believe DeLeon and Monroy were
in different gangs who exchanged slurs before
DeLeon, who reportedly goes by Spooky,
pulled out a handgun and red. Monroy was
hit in the foot and the other victim had a bul-
let lodged in his sternum.
During the search that turned up DeLeon,
deputies reported nding a large quantity of
marijuana and a bicycle that matched the
description of the shooters bike. The bike had
been painted a different color.
In May, prosecutors tired of waiting for a
preliminary hearing asked a criminal grand
jury to indict him on attempted murder and
weapons charges. Prosecutors dropped the
cases against the other suspects arrested
because the evidence of involvement was
insufcient.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO The bulk of the pro-
jected savings in the public pension reform
deal announced by Gov. Jerry Brown wont be
felt for decades because most of the proposed
changes will affect government workers who
have yet to be hired.
While Brown touted his deal as a way to
shore up Californias retirement systems, the
legislative package he announced Tuesday
also illustrates the difculty in addressing run-
away pension costs. Thats because retirement
benets for current government employees are
protected by decades of court decisions.
The governor announced a compromise
with Democratic lawmakers after months of
negotiations. On Wednesday, the chief actuary
of the states main pension fund the
California Public
Employees Retirement
System estimated the
pension plan will save the
system $40 billion to $60
billion over 30 years. The
fund currently has an esti-
mated $100 billion in
unfunded liabilities,
according to spokesman
Brad Pacheco.
Unlike private-sector retirement plans,
which employers can change, court decisions
over 60 years have made clear that future pen-
sion benets are guaranteed to current public
employees. Last year, for example, the state
Supreme Court ruled that implied contracts
covering retirees health care are valid.
That case was brought by Orange County
and other local governments trying to reduce
their retiree health costs, and remains in fed-
eral litigation.
People have vested rights. You cant take
away something that somebody has already
earned, said Jeff Lewis, an Oakland-based
attorney who represents public employees and
retirees. People work in exchange for not just
their paychecks but also the promise of future
benets under a specic plan.
A 2011 pension report by the Little Hoover
Commission, an independent state oversight
agency, had urged lawmakers to challenge
legal decisions by changing current employee
benets.
Public agencies must have the exibility
and authority to freeze accrued pension bene-
ts for current workers, and make changes to
pension formulas going forward to protect
state and local public employees and the pub-
lic good, the commission wrote.

San Mateo County is redesigning its
Get Healthy website which it credits
over the last eight years with helping
obesity rates drop, including 5.6 percent
in the last year alone.
San Mateo County is one of only three
counties where obesity rates decreased
and the San Mateo County Get Healthy
Collaborative behind the push is ramp-
ing up the effort with its redesigned site,
www.gethealthysmc.org. The site is one-
stop shopping for sharing information,
discovering creative ways to stay active
and learning about upcoming events and
available funding for local programs.
With many of our cities rates of
childhood obesity in excess of 30 per-
cent, the county wants to ensure that
communities have access to the informa-
tion they need to make the most
informed decisions for themselves and
future generations, said Supervisor
Rose Jacobs Gibson in a prepared state-
ment.
Get Healthy is also launching a new
Facebook page at
www.facebook.com/gethealthysmc.
Get Healthy places a special focus on
areas in the county with the fewest
options for physical activities and
healthy food.
[W]e need everybody to take action.
Get Healthy relies on partnerships with
our cities, our planning departments, our
farms and our schools and the Get
Healthy website is one place where
everyone can stay connected, said ST

planning, in an announcement of the
revamped site.

A 25-year-old Redwood City man
who drank six beers and crashed into a
parked car, breaking the leg and neck of
its passenger, was sentenced yesterday
to four years and four months in prison.
Angeles Torres-Fuentes faced up to
five years after pleading no contest in
April to felony drunk driving and
admitted causing great bodily injury in
the April 3, 2011 crash. On Wednesday,
Judge Craig Parson imposed just shy of
that term.
The sentence is not bad for the cir-
cumstances of the
case, said District
Attorney Steve
Wagstaffe.
An g e l - To r r e s
admitted having six
beers prior to the
April 3, 2011 crash
in unincorporated
Redwood City and
showed a blood
alcohol level of .16
percent, according to the District
Attorneys Office.
According to prosecutors, at approxi-
mately 2:33 a.m., Torres-Fuentes struck
a car holding three people parked on El
Camino Real from behind. One passen-
ger suffered a broken neck and left leg
while another had back and head pain.
The California Highway Patrol said
Torres-Fuentes was obviously intoxi-
cated and failed field sobriety tests.
At the time, Torres-Fuentes drivers
license was suspended, prosecutors said.
Torres-Fuentes was originally sched-
uled for sentencing in July but forfeited
his $20,000 bail by failing to appear in
court. He has been in custody without
bail since being apprehended.

SACRAMENTO A bill that would
ban the public display of ries and shot-
guns in most California cities and towns
was on its way to the governor after the
state Assembly approved it Wednesday
over strenuous objections from several
lawmakers.
Assemblyman Anthony Portantino, D-
La Canada-Flintridge, said he initiated
the legislation in response to gun rights
advocates who began carrying unloaded
long guns to protest legislation approved
last year that prohibited the public dis-
play of handguns. Opponents, mainly
Republicans, called it an attempt to
infringe on Second Amendment rights.
Supporters noted that the latest legis-
lation, AB1527, was sought by the state
police chiefs association and the Peace
Officers Research Association of
California, which represents local, state
and federal law enforcement ofcers.
Assemblyman Gil Cedillo, D-Los
Angeles, invoked a rash of recent gun
crimes, including fatal shootings this
summer inside a movie theater in subur-
ban Denver and a Sikh temple outside
Milwaukee. None of the high-prole
incidents he referenced are believed to
have included ries or shotguns.

Public transit
agencies are one
step closer to pro-
viding better cus-
tomer service for
patrons who choose
to park in their facilities. Authored by
Assemblyman Rich Gordon, D-Menlo
Park, Assembly Bill 2104 will authorize
these entities to enforce their own parking
regulations to help alleviate parking con-
gestion problems. The bill was sent to Gov.
Jerry Browns desk after it was passed in
the Assembly Wednesday.
Reports of transit agency-run parking
facilities being plagued by various prob-
lems, including parking by non-transit cus-
tomers, overnight parking and storage or
vehicle abandonment, have surfaced across
the state. Currently, only peace officers or
designated employees by the state, board of
supervisors or city council can ticket or
remove vehicles that violate parking
restrictions. Exempt from this enforcement
authority are employees of the transit agen-
cies themselves, who regularly monitor the
parking lots and onsite facilities.
Assembly Bill 2104 would grant these
employees the ability to remove and ticket
illegally parked vehicles.
Gov. Brown announced the appoint-
ment of Gordon to serve on the Pacific
State Marine Fisheries Commission.
Established by Congress in 1947, the
PSMFC is an interstate compact agency
that helps resource agencies and the fishing
industry sustainably manage and conserve

convenience stores, drug stores, clothing stores
and other retail stores. Shoppers are encouraged
to bring reusable bags for shopping.
The types of businesses exempt from the ordi-
nance include food vendors, including restau-
rants and take-out food establishments; dry
cleaners and nonprot charitable reuse organi-
zations. The ordinance also does not apply to
protective types of bags, including for meat,
produce and bakery items. Stores will be
allowed to distribute paper bags, although the
paper bags are required to contain a minimum
of 40 percent post-consumer recycled content
and the stores will charge a minimum of 10
cents for each point-of-sale paper bag. The
stores will retain the charge for the bags. The
requirements for the recycled content and
charge on the paper bags are included in an
effort to reduce the negative impacts to the envi-
ronment from any potential increased use of
paper bags and to help the stores recover the
cost of the paper bags.
To help with the transition to using reusable
bags, the city will continue to distribute reusable
cloth shopping bags made from 100 percent
post-consumer recycled plastic bottles for
Millbrae residents. Those interested in a free
bag can visit the Public Works counter at City
Hall, 621 Magnolia Ave. during normal busi-
ness hours.
Burglary suspects in custody
A Redwood City man found prowling in the
backyard of a Woodside home Wednesday
morning was arrested by San Mateo County
Sheriffs Ofce deputies after searching for him
and nding several pieces of property stolen
from vehicles that were parked in the driveway
of Woodside homes.
Dean Goble, 21, was arrested for conspiracy,
possession of stolen property, probation viola-
tion and being under the inuence of a narcotic.
A probation search of Gobles home also
resulted in the arrest of another man, Killian
Hackett, who was in possession of crystal
methamphetamine and a pipe used for smoking
narcotics, according to the Sheriffs Ofce. A
search of Hacketts vehicle revealed a case of
exotic wine and champagne that was stolen dur-
ing a residential burglary in Portola Valley,
according to the Sheriffs Ofce.
Killian, 19, was arrested for conspiracy, pos-
session of stolen property, possession of a con-
trolled substance and possession of parapherna-
lia.
Suspect at large in armed robbery
A woman walking with her two children on
the 700 block of Indian Avenue near North
Humboldt Street was robbed at gunpoint yester-
day morning, according to the San Mateo Police
Department.
The suspect brandished a handgun and
demanded property from the 36-year-old victim
while she was walking with her 13-year-old
daughter and 6-year-old son, according to
police. After taking the property, the suspect ed
the area southbound on North Humboldt Street
and is still at large.
The suspect was described as a white or light-
skinned Hispanic male in his late teens to early
20s. He was described as around 6 feet in height
with a stocky build. The suspect appeared to be
armed with a handgun, according to police.

Bill cracks down
on party bus drinking
SACRAMENTO Operators of so-called
party buses would bear legal responsibility
for drinking by underage
passengers under a bill
that responds to several
recent tragedies.
AB45 would hold party
bus operators to the same
standards as limousine
drivers. It requires them to
have a chaperone to make
sure underage passengers
dont drink and makes
them liable if passengers break the law.
Violations would be misdemeanors and
could merit civil penalties by the California
Public Utilities Commission, which regulates
limousines, shuttles and buses.
The bill, authored by Assemblyman Jerry
Hill, D-San Mateo, passed 30-0 Wednesday
and returns to the Assembly.
It is named after 19-year-old Brett
Studebaker of San Mateo, who died in 2010
after drinking on a party bus. He crashed
while driving home an hour later.
Authorities say his blood alcohol level was
three times the legal limit.
State moves to give
licenses to immigrant drivers
SACRAMENTO California is moving to
give drivers licenses to young immigrants
who are in the country illegally but would no
longer face deportation under a recently
announced policy change by the Obama
administration.
AB2189 would require the Department of
Motor Vehicles to accept as proof of legal res-
idence whatever document the federal govern-
ment provides to participants in its deferred
action program. It passed 25-7 Wednesday
and returns to the Assembly.
The bill by Democratic Assemblyman Gil
Cedillo of Los Angeles drew support from
three conservative Republicans.
Bill would improve
media access to prison inmates
SACRAMENTO Reporters could
request interviews with specic inmates in
California prisons under a bill headed to Gov.
Jerry Browns desk.
Sen. Curren Price, a Democrat from Los
Angeles, says the bill would improve trans-
parency and accountability in the prison sys-
tem.
AB1270 passed the Senate 21-13
Wednesday with the support of more than two
dozen media organizations, groups supporting
inmates rights and prison reforms, and the
union representing most prison guards.
Bill gives domestic
workers union-style work rules
SACRAMENTO Nannies, housekeep-
ers, child care providers and caregivers in
California would be eligible for overtime and
meal breaks under a bill making its way
through the Legislature.
The bill also would require that live-in
workers be compensated if their eight-hour
rest period was interrupted.

Jerry Hill
In the music industry since the late 1970s,
Tani has performed throughout the United
States and in other countries. His bandmates
and group names have changed throughout
the years, and he met Jenn Courtney, 44, the
penetrating voice behind the 77 El Deora, dur-
ing a brief interlude when the two played in
the band Hillside Wranglers.
In hearing Courtneys sultry voice, margin-
ally higher than his own, Tani recognized they
made a commanding duet. In search of artistic
satisfaction, he took his new muse and wrote
about a ctional character now portrayed by
Courtney, Tani said.
Courtney has been singing in rock bands
since the 1980s. Her musical taste is eclectic,
which drew her to the group, she said.
He and I have an amazing chemistry since
day one, our voices come together really
well, said Courtney.
The comically witty song I just dodged a
bullet from their 2011 CD The Crown and
the Crows Confession, is a light-hearted
banter full of cheesy breakup lines in which
Tani and Courtney are heard in a humorous
sparring of the sexes, said Tani.
This type of comedy is central to Tanis pro-
fessed trailer park operetta fragment of 77
El Deoras range. After all, its always better
to have people laugh with you, than at you,
Tani said. Still, Tani noted a sincere and
sophisticated meaning in the bands songs
which explore deeper into base ideas of love
and life, more concerned with, he said,
human relationships, and what makes those
things kick. The variant resonance of lyric,
sound and venue lift 77 El Deora to a unique
breed of music. This transformative style
adjusts to their audience.
Rarely do we get to do a show that is com-
prehensive of all the different forms of music
we play, Tani said.
Tonights performance will highlight the
lighter, more sensual style in which Tani
hopes to engage the audience. He likes to cre-
ate music on a level that relates to [listeners].
[Im] trying to reframe the human experiences
we all have, he said. In place of a usual ddle
player, Randy Craig will be on the piano.
Rocking may occur, but it will be a more
rened rock, he said.
This Labor Day weekend, the ddle will be
thrown back into play at El Rio in San
Francisco as 77 El Deora will be playing on,
Tani said, Full rock band mode, as loud and
as bashy as we can get.
Regardless of venue and style, the heart
wrenchingly funny country design paired with
lyrical stories remains constant for Tani.
Unlike verses from alternate music genres
where there is little, if no actual story progres-
sion, Tani thrives off what he refers to as a
lyrical song device. Each verse progresses and
tells you a little more about the character.
Information you couldnt glean the mean-
ing of off the bat, he said. You have to get
all the way through the song before you can
get to what the writer really meant.

Trustee Alisa MacAvoy was excited to see

Community Charter Schools 118-page peti-
tion outlines plans to operate on the east side
of town with a focus on social-emotional
learning and inquiry-based learning that
would, at capacity, serve 300 students in
kindergarten through eighth grade. First
heard by the board in June, district staff and
charter backers worked together over the
summer to clarify details. Also, the district
had the financial aspects of the charter pro-
posal analyzed by School Services of
California, Inc.
Ultimately, Christensen recommended
approval despite some concerns about the
schools financial viability during a time of
continuous state budget cuts.
Connects program calls for integrating
social and emotional learning. The program
would allow students to work with the same
teacher for two consecutive years to build a
relationship. Daily curriculum would include
visual arts and physical education.
Opportunities for hands-on service learning
with the community would be offered.
Connect would participate in mandated state
tests and include a teacher-led professional
learning community through a shared gover-
nance model.
As proposed, the schools founders aim
to open in the 2013-14 school year with
25 students in kindergarten, first and sec-
ond grades and 50 students in sixth grade.
In the years to come, one grade will be
added to the elementary and middle
school section until the fourth school
year, 2016-17, when the campus would be
at capacity with 300 students.
Since the petition was approved, Connect
will most likely make a Proposition 39
request to access facilities. Since the school
isnt starting at full capacity, it would most
likely use a number of classrooms at an
existing district site to start.
Currently, the district does not have any
charter schools. Previously, Garfield School
was a charter school sponsored by the
Redwood City Elementary School District. It
was the states 49th charter school in 1994.
In February 2009, the Garfield Charter Board
voted unanimously not to renew the schools
charter and return to the district.

Isaac sidesteps direct
blow on New Orleans
By Cain Burdeau and Michael Kunzelman
NEW ORLEANS Hurricane Isaac sidestepped New
Orleans on Wednesday, sending the worst of its howling wind
and heavy rain into a cluster of rural shing villages that had
few defenses against the slow-moving storm that could bring
days of unending rain.
Isaac arrived exactly seven years after Hurricane Katrina
and passed slightly to the west of New Orleans, where the
citys fortied levee system easily handled the assault.
The citys biggest problems seemed to be downed power
lines, scattered tree limbs and minor ooding. Just one person
was reported killed, compared with 1,800 deaths from Katrina
in Louisiana and Mississippi. And police reported few prob-
lems with looting. Mayor Mitch Landrieu ordered a dusk-to-
dawn curfew just to be sure.
But in Plaquemines Parish, a sparsely populated area south
of the city that is outside the federal levee system, dozens of
people were stranded in ooded coastal areas. The storm
pushed water over an 18-mile levee and put so much pressure
on it that authorities were considering intentionally puncturing
the oodwall to relieve the strain.
Im getting text messages from all over asking for help,
said Joshua Brockhaus, an electrician who was rescuing neigh-
bors in his boat.

Few think Bernanke to
signal action at conference
WASHINGTON Investors are hoping
Chairman Ben Bernanke will at least hint
Friday that the Federal Reserve is ready to
launch another round of bond purchases to try
to lower long-term U.S. interest rates and spur
more borrowing and spending.
Hes unlikely to deliver.
Economists who monitor the Fed doubt
Bernanke will say anything dramatic when he
speaks at an annual economic conference in
Jackson Hole, Wyo. Many think a slightly
brighter economic outlook
has lessened the urgency
for the Fed to act soon.
I dont expect him to
give some signicant clue
as to what the Feds next
move is, says economist
Timothy Duy at the
University of Oregon.
At the end of every
August, economists and
central bankers convene in
the Rocky Mountains at a symposium organ-
ized by the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas
City. They present papers and argue about eco-
nomic issues. But mostly, they wait to see what
the Fed chairman has to say.
CDC: 103 ill with
salmonella tied to mangoes
WASHINGTON Federal health ofcials
are investigating a foodborne illness outbreak
that has sickened more than 100 people in 16
states and has been linked to salmonella-taint-
ed mangoes.
Authorities said Wednesday they are still
probing what caused an outbreak of 103 cases
of salmonella Braenderup infections since July,
and they are trying to identify which mango
brands or sources are tied to the illnesses.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention says 78 of the cases were reported
in California. No deaths have been reported.
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency also
recently reported illnesses resulting from the
same bacterial strain. Several U.S. and
Canadian retailers have issued releases saying
they will recall or remove Daniella-brand man-
goes from stores.

By David Espo
TAMPA, Fla. Seizing the campaign
spotlight, vice presidential candidate Paul
Ryan accepted the
calling of my genera-
tion to help lead the
country at age 42 and
told roaring
Republican National
Convention delegates
and a prime-time TV
audience Wednesday
night that Mitt
Romney and he will
make the difcult decisions needed to
repair the nations economy.
After four years of getting the
runaround, America needs a turnaround,
and the man for the job is Governor Mitt
Romney, the Wisconsin lawmaker
declared in what amounted to his debut on
the national stage. He spoke at a conven-
tion dogged by Tropical Storm Isaac,
downgraded from a hurricane but still
inicting misery on millions along the
nearby northern Gulf Coast.
We will not duck the tough issues; we
will lead, Ryan promised in a speech that
was part attack on Democratic President
Barack Obama and part spirited testimo-
nial to presidential candidate Romney,
warmed by a loving tribute to his own 78-
year-old mother, Betty.
To this day, my mom is a role model,
Ryan said as she beamed in her seat across
the hall and exchanged smiles with one of
his children. Delegates cheered their
approval.
A generation younger than the 65-year-
old Romney, Ryan emphasized their dif-
ferences as well as their joint commitment
to tackle the economy, an evident appeal
to younger voters who ocked to Obamas
side in 2008.
There are songs on his iPod which Ive
heard on the campaign bus and on
many hotel elevators, he said to laughter
in the hall.
As for his own favorites, he said
Romney actually urged me to play some
of these songs at campaign rallies. I said,
I hope its not a deal breaker, Mitt. But
my playlist starts with AC/DC and ends
with Zeppelin.
Romney, in a secondary role if only for
a moment, accused Obama of backing
reckless defense cuts amounting to $1
trillion. Addressing the American Legion
in Indianapolis, he said, There are plenty
of places to cut in a federal budget that
now totals over $3 trillion. But defense is
not one of them.
Romney delivers his own nationally tel-
evised acceptance speech Thursday night
in the nal act of his own convention. The
political attention then shifts to the
Democrats, who open their own meeting
on Tuesday in Charlotte, N.C., to nomi-
nate Obama and Vice President Joe Biden
for second terms.
Deep into a two-week stretch of nation-
al gatherings, the race for the White
House is in a sort of political black hole
where the day-to-day polls matter little if
at all as voters sort through their impres-
sions.
Criticizing Obama, Ryan said of the
president and Democrats: Theyve run
out of ideas. Their moment came and
went. Fear and division is all theyve got
left.

WASHINGTON A Navy SEALs
rsthand account of the raid that killed
Osama bin Laden pulls back the veil on
the secret operations conducted almost
nightly by elite American forces against
terrorist suspects.
Former SEAL Matt Bissonnettes
account contradicted in key details the
account of the raid presented by admin-
istration ofcials in the days after the
May 2011 raid in Abbotabad, Pakistan,
that killed the al-Qaida leader, and raised
questions about whether the SEALs fol-
lowed to the letter
the order to only use
deadly force if they
deemed him a
threat.
Bissonnette wrote
that the SEALs spot-
ted bin Laden at the
top of a darkened
hallway and shot
him in the head even
though they could
not tell whether he was armed.
Administration ofcials have described
the SEALs shooting bin Laden only after
he ducked back into a bedroom because
they assumed he might be reaching for a
weapon.
Military experts said Wednesday that
if Bissonnettes recollection is accurate,
the SEALS made the right call to open
re on the terrorist mastermind who had
plenty of time to reach for a weapon or
explosives as they made their way up to
the third level of the house where he hid.
Bissonnette wrote the book, No Easy
Day, under the pseudonym Mark Owen
as one of the men in the room when they
killed bin Laden. The book is to be pub-
lished next week by Penguin Group
(USA)s Dutton imprint. The Associated
Press purchased a copy Tuesday.

Egypt pulls back some Sinai tanks
EL-ARISH, Egypt Egypt on Wednesday withdrew some
of the tanks it deployed near the Israeli and Gaza borders as
part of a military operation against militants in the Sinai
Peninsula.
The tank deployment earlier this month had brought com-
plaints from Israel since the peace treaty between the two coun-
tries bans such heavy weapons from a zone along the border.
Israel had quietly agreed to Egypt sending thousands of troops
into the area also barred under the treaty to ght mili-
tants, but it had not consented to the tanks.
Nearly a dozen tanks that had been stationed near the Rafah
border crossing into Gaza were seen heading out of northern
Sinai on Wednesday afternoon. Military ofcials told the
Associated Press they were returning to their base in Ismailiya,
just on the other side of the Suez Canal from Sinai.
With the withdrawal, nearly 40 tanks remain in the border
zone. The ofcials gave no reason for the pullback. The of-
cials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not
authorized to discuss the deployment.
The head of security in Port Said, Sameh Radwan, said secu-
rity was being reinforced along the Suez Canal after threats the
strategic waterway could be targeted in retaliation for the offen-
sive, according to the state news agency MENA.

KABUL, Afghanistan Afghan President
Hamid Karzai moved to replace the countrys
intelligence chief and the ministers of defense
and interior Wednesday, the rst step in what
senior government ofcials said was a planned
wider Cabinet shake-up aimed at solidifying
the presidents power before elections and the
drawdown of foreign forces.
The president also is trying to shore up his
shaken security team as his administration
struggles to build an army and police force in
the face of a resurgent Taliban as the U.S. and
other foreign forces begin to withdraw. Those
coalitions training efforts have increasingly
become a target for insurgents NATO said
Wednesday that three more of its service
members were killed by
an Afghan wearing an
army uniform in the latest
in a string of attacks by
Afghans on international
trainers.
Karzais latest reshufe
of top ofcials if it
goes through appeared
to be an attempt to stack
the Cabinet and electoral
commission with his allies in a bid to retain
power behind the scenes after his nal ve-
year term ends and the international troops
withdraw in 2014.
With the elections coming, with the transi-
tion ... it is a time for him to re-strengthen his
team, said Martine van Bijlert, an expert at
the Afghan Analysts Network. I think we
could be seeing a major reshufe. ... The ques-
tion is always: Can he make it stick?
An Afghan ofcial close to the presidents
ofce told the Associated Press the head of the
countrys election commission, the attorney
general and the nance minister were expect-
ed to be among the top positions to be part of
the shake-up. The ofcial spoke on condition
of anonymity because he was not authorized to
brief the media.
Nothing is nal until there is an ofcial
announcement from Karzai, and the president
could still change his nominees or leave the
government largely untouched. But van Bijlert
noted that while rumors of Cabinet shake-ups
are common, Karzai may use the window pro-
vided by the parliaments sacking of his
defense and interior ministers to make wider
changes.
However, any changes must be conrmed
by parliament, and it is unclear whether Karzai
would be able to muster the necessary support
from lawmakers, many of whom feel the pres-
ident too often ignores parliaments constitu-
tional powers, to push his nominees through.
There were already grumblings among law-
makers about some of the names that have
emerged.
Two senior Afghan ofcials, speaking on
condition of anonymity because they were not
authorized to release the information, told AP
that Assadullah Khalid, the minister of tribal
and border affairs, would replace Rahtamullah
Nabil as the head of the National Directorate
of Security the countrys main spy agency.
Khalid, a former governor of two provinces,
has been criticized for alleged human rights
violations and could be a controversial pick.

Letters to the editor
The Telegraph, London
M
itt Romney has been introduced
to the American people in many
guises: the hard-nosed executive
who saved Utahs Winter Olympics; the mid-
dle-of-the-road governor who brought univer-
sal health care to Massachusetts; the repen-
tant and radicalized Right-winger who cam-
paigned (twice) for his partys presidential
nomination; and now, since the selection of
Paul Ryan as his running mate, as the scal
conservative to bring sanity to the nations
nances.
In Tampa, Romney will be attempting to
synthesize these personae into something at
once more complex and more simple: a com-
mander in chief. If the making of a president
is Americas most distinctive rite, then the
party conventions are arguably the most
important moment in the liturgy, save for the
candidates debates, and of course Election
Day itself. Romney and his party will unveil
with full orchestration what they hope
will become the campaigns dening themes,
even as the Democrats seek to insert their
own nagging counterpoint.
Americans attention will be on Tampa not
merely because of the storm warnings, but
because there is a palpable sense thanks in
part to the selection of Ryan of how much
this contest matters. Often in elections, what
appears to be a cataclysmic contest of ideolo-
gy turns out to be a choice between shades of
technocracy. Not this time. The Republicans
chosen battleground is the very shape and
scope of U.S. government, not least since a
combination of political and scal pressures
mean that whoever is elected will face choic-
es that could ultimately determine whether
the worlds greatest power remains not just
prosperous, but even solvent. The stage is set
and, for the moment, is Romneys to
seize.
Propositions to raise
taxes for education
Editor,
We are at it again. More tax ... more services
... more waste. We are staunchly looking away
from the areas that need to be cut back and
programs that do not make one iota of differ-
ence for all of us but cost us all a major chunk
of available tax receipts in California. Yes, the
high-speed rail disaster is one of those projects
for sure, but there are many more.
In the meantime, politicians are just unde-
terred and are grabbing our pocketbook once
more. I guess it is much easier to get it from us
then to look at the obvious. There is over-
spending at all levels of government and
bureaucratic public services. Cut that rst and
produce the savings. Segregate the general
fund from vital services and prevent anybody
from putting their grabby hands in the till.
Then come back and ask us again. I predict,
you wont need it anymore.

The real question
Editor,
In response to the letter entitled
Questions for voters published in the Aug.
24 edition of the Daily Journal, how on
earth can anyone be so blindly hi-jacked by
right-wing hate propaganda to think that
Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan can do a better
job than what President Obama has done?
While Obama has proved himself as a capa-
ble occupant of the highest office in the
world, Romney has used every opportunity
to demonstrate that he is uniquely unquali-
fied for the office, as well as dangerous to
the world.
This letter writer is not only illogical in
his assumption but also factually wrong.
Despite compact obstruction from an unpa-
triotic Republican party dead set on taking
him down, Obama has been able to drag us
partly out of the economic, social, scientific,
legal and military mess Bush left behind.
Contrary to the letter writers claims,
Obama turned heavy job losses under Bush
to steady job growth. Unemployment is still
high, partly due to sharp reductions in pub-
lic employment, but to think that Romney
could do better based on his record of
wrecked businesses, layoffs and outsourcing
is sheer nonsense. International relations are
vastly improved under Obama, a person to
whom the world looks as a responsible
leader who weighs the consequences of his
decisions and actions and who is pulling us
out of ill-conceived wars started by Bush
instead of diving blindly into new ones as
suggested by Romney. And lets not forget,
Obama did get Osama bin Laden using
more cool brain power than hot-tempered
fire power.
The question should rather be, Do we
want four more years of what George W.
Bush stuck us with or four more years of
continued progress under President Barack
Obama? The latter we need, the former we
cant afford.

The Republican National Convention

Omaha (Neb.) World-Herald
O
K, so its been a while since there
was any real drama at a national
political convention.
Back when, the Democrats could brawl for
16 days and 103 ballots (New York, 1924) in
picking their nominee. Republicans
(Chicago, 1912) could watch a slugfest
between an incumbent president, William
Howard Taft, and a former president,
Theodore Roosevelt, that would leave the
loser running anyway as a Bull Moose.
But lately? Modern conventions pretty
much are scripted coronations for nominees
chosen months earlier in primaries and cau-
cuses. Even the announcement of a vice pres-
idential choice comes well before the con-
vention opens.
So the major television networks, which
once aired the events almost gavel-to-gavel,
have pulled back. ABC, CBS and NBC are
promising only three hours of coverage
spread over the four nights of each conven-
tion Republicans in Tampa, Fla. and
Democrats in Charlotte, N.C.
But despite network TVs shrinking inter-
est, the 2012 conventions may be more
accessible to interested voters than ever.
Newspapers will report on the events in
detail, and there will be a new wave of live
coverage utilizing the Internet, social media
such as Facebook and Twitter, tablet comput-
ers and smartphones.
These conventions are an institution going
back to the 1830s, yet many 21st-century
Americans are still paying attention. For
three convention nights over two weeks in
2008, more than 40 million people watched
the speeches of Barack Obama, John McCain
and Sarah Palin on television.
While its easy to poke fun, these quadren-
nial pep rallies remain more than a place to
see donkey jewelry and elephant hats.

Granted, I havent been to Curry Village in

rat. The worker
who found the ani-
mal popping up from the sink certainly claimed
rat although that might be the surprise and
adrenaline talking. Another person thought
mouse, although the critter may have appeared
smaller being spotted across a room.
Either way, the signs of an unwelcome guest
were inarguable. Droppings in a desk drawer. A
plant one day disturbed, the next day complete-
ly uprooted. Plastic cracker package wrapping
chewed open and crumbs scattered about.
Pieces of chocolate missing think chocolate
is as fatal to vermin as it is to dogs? With most
reporters hoarding stashes of cookies and pro-
tein bars, candy and popcorn for late-night

out of the question, the mouse or rat or what
have you certainly hit the culinary jackpot.
Unfortunately for him or her, they also

the mouse, put its head on a stick as a warning
to any others to stay away. That last one was
mine.
Suddenly, we were a combination of The
Hunger Games and Apocalypse Now
and this was before the hantavirus outbreak
upped the ante.
The hype has hantavirus delivering on the
hysteria promised in past years by SARS, avian
u, West Nile virus, contaminated lettuce and
mangoes.
Of course, if the mice dont get us with the
hantavirus the squirrels with plague are waiting
in the wings. Yep, in another nod to vintage
infections, three ground squirrels this week
tested positive for bubonic plague. Somehow
the cute creatures scurrying up and down the
trees outside the ofce window dont look so
warm and fuzzy anymore. Instead, they are
deathtraps with a bushy tail, eager to wipe out
those few the hantavirus leaves behind.
Obviously, the vermin are beginning to work
together and the humans are on the losing side.
But the dangers to humankind arent just
those with a heartbeat. Two guests at a Chicago
hotel died of Legionnaires disease and six oth-
ers fell ill from the water-borne bacteria. Nine
have died from Legionnaires disease in
Quebec City. Even if we stay inside to avoid
the evil vermin, the air conditioning systems
will still get us.
Whats next? Ebola?
The time has obviously come to put our-
selves in a sterile bubble or stock up on face
masks and latex gloves at least until we
learn those products carry their own batch of
hazards.
Or, maybe we can just take a deep breathe
albeit one not anywhere near a tent cabin or a
well-cooled hotel and realize the only thing
really catching is fear.

NEW YORK Slightly better eco-
nomic growth and stronger housing
sales nudged the stock market higher
Wednesday. The Dow Jones industrial
average managed a four-point gain.
The U.S. economy expanded at a 1.7
percent annual rate from April through
June thanks to rising consumer spend-
ing and exports. Thats an improvement
from the initial estimate of 1.5 percent,
but not enough to put a dent in the
unemployment rate.
The National Association of Realtors
said its index of sales for previously
owned homes increased 2.4 percent in
July, reaching its highest level since
April 2010, the last month buyers could
qualify for a federal tax credit.
Its a mixed message overall, said
JJ Kinahan, chief derivatives strategist
at TD Ameritrade. We all know we
need 2 percent (economic) growth. And
you cant continue to improve on hous-
ing if the unemployment picture doesnt
improve. At some point, the numbers
have to match.
The Dow added 4.49 points to close
at 13,107.48.
The Standard & Poors 500 index
added 1.19 points to 1,410.49, while the
Nasdaq composite index gained 4.05
points to 3,081.19.
Crude oil lost 84 cents to finish at
$95.49. Hurricane Isaac made landfall
Tuesday night, but its heavy winds and
rain arent expected to cause extensive
damage to oil production and refinery
operations in the Gulf of Mexico.
Markets have slipped into a late-sum-
mer lull. Indexes have barely budged
amid some of thinnest trading days this
year. After three days of minuscule
moves, the S&P 500 index is down less
than one point for the week.
Just over 10 billion shares have been
traded on the New York Stock
Exchange over the past four sessions,
the slowest stretch since the last four
days of 2011. One measure of stock-
market volatility, the Vix, recently sank
to a five-year low.
Kinahan said the markets apparent
lack of direction makes sense, especial-
ly ahead of the Labor Day weekend and
a highly anticipated speech by Federal
Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke on
Friday.
Theres no incentive to take a big
trading position, he said. Many peo-
ple I know plan on taking a three-day
weekend or are just coming in for the
speech to see if (Bernanke) says any-
thing interesting or market-moving. If
not, theyre outta there.

Big movers

NEW YORK Drivers are being hit
with the biggest one-day jump in gasoline
prices in 18 months just as the last heavy
driving weekend of the summer approach-
es.
As Hurricane Isaac swamps the nations
oil and gas hub along the Gulf Coast, its
delivering sharply higher pump prices to
storm-battered residents of Louisiana and
Mississippi and also to unsuspecting
drivers up north in Illinois, Indiana and
Ohio.
The national average price of a gallon of
gas jumped almost ve cents Wednesday
to $3.80, the highest ever for this date.
Prices are expected to continue to climb
through Labor Day weekend, the end of
the summer driving season.
The national average will keep ticking
higher, and its going to be noticeable,
says Patrick DeHaan, senior petroleum
analyst at Gasbuddy.com
The wide storm shut down several
reneries along the Gulf Coast and others
are operating at reduced rates. In all, about
1.3 million barrels per day of rening
capacity is affected. So, its no surprise
that drivers in Louisiana, Alabama,
Mississippi and Florida saw gas prices
rise by a dime or more in the past week.
But some states in the Midwest are suf-
fering even more dramatic spikes. Ohio
prices jumped 14 cents, Indiana prices
soared 13 cents and Illinois prices jumped
10 cents on Wednesday alone according to
the Oil Price Information Service.
Isaac brings higher gas prices
Amazon.com to begin collecting sales tax
HARRISBURG, Pa. Beginning Saturday, Amazon.com
Inc. will start collecting Pennsylvania sales tax on orders
that are shipped to the state, a spokesman said Wednesday.
The online retail giant had previously refused to register to
collect Pennsylvanias 6 percent levy on its orders. But a
spokesman said the company reversed itself because a state
directive requiring it takes effect Saturday.
We believe that customers (in Pennsylvania) will contin-
ue to come to Amazon because we offer the best prices with
or without sales tax, said the spokesman, Scott Stanzel.
The Seattle-based company currently collects sales taxes
on orders shipped to six other states Kansas, Kentucky,
North Dakota, New York, Texas and Washington. It plans to
add California to the list on Sept. 15, he said.
Yelp shares surge as insiders hold on to stock
SAN FRANCISCO Yelps early backers apparently
still have a high opinion of the online business review serv-
ice, much to Wall Streets relief, after insiders at several
other Internet companies dumped some of their shares at the
rst opportunity.
A Wednesday increase of more than 22 percent n Yelps
stock price signaled the companys major shareholders are
holding on to their stakes instead of seizing on a chance to
reap the gains that have accumulated from investments made
before the 8-year-old service went public in early March.
Judge refuses to delay case for Google appeal
NEW YORK The federal judge presiding over challenges
to Google Inc.s plans to create the worlds largest digital
library has refused to delay the 7-year-old case while Google
appeals his decision to grant authors class certication.
U.S. Circuit Judge Denny Chins order was put in the
court le Wednesday in Manhattan, where he ruled in May
that class action was more efcient and effective than
requiring thousands of authors to sue individually. His order
was dated Tuesday.

Terra Nova built for success
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Regardless of the
offensive system or the
graduation of key play-
ers, there has been one
constant for the Terra
Nova football program:
w i n n i n g .
Since the advent of the
Peninsula Athletic
Leagues Bay Division,
the Tigers are the only
team that has remained
in the PALs most com-
petitive division since its
inception in 1996. On top of
that, the Tigers have had only one losing season in
22 years.
Were doing something right, especially at a
public school where the talent level uctuates annu-
ally, said coach Bill Gray, who enters his 23rd sea-
son at the helm of the Terra Nova program. Getting
there (to the top) is fun, staying there is really hard.
The way we do things works. It lends itself to not
having the ups and downs.
The biggest change for the Tigers this season is
replacing quarterback Chris Forbes and a bevy of
wide receivers. For a lot of teams, the loss of a pro-
lic player such as Forbes would almost guarantee
a down year the following season.
Not for the Tigers. Gray plugs in senior KRen
Spain who, in his one start against Half Moon Bay
last season, accounted for 483 yards of total offense,
throwing for 360 yards and rushing for 123.
Spain has garnered a lot of press around the Bay
Area leading up the start of the season, but Gray
doesnt believe that puts any undue pressure on
Spain. Mainly because Gray doesnt pay attention
to what others say.
[Spain] is very even-keeled, fun-loving student
of the game of football who just loves to play the
game of football. Its a pleasure to watch him every
Woodside looking to restore a sense of pride
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Not too long ago, youd be hard pressed to nd
another team with more football swagger than
Woodside High School.
But after a couple of atypical seasons, includ-
ing a 1-4 PAL Ocean Division campaign in 2011,
even brand new head coach Josh Bowie said that
feeling had slowly left the Wildcats locker room.
So when Bowie took over the job less than a
month ago, step one was to try and track down
that Wildcat condence present when he was the
defensive coordinator from 2007 to 2009.
And with their rst showdown of the year a
couple of days away, Bowie said slowly but sure-
ly that swagger is re-emerging.
Thats going to be the magic ticket, Bowie
said. Every team has good athletes, every team
has players that work hard. But it takes those indi-
vidual players and those individuals athletes to
get them to play together as a team, to truly care
and to truly want to win for each other. Thats
when the magic happens.
Bowie knows a thing about that magic. As a
former defensive coordinator for the Wildcats, he
had his hand in a pair of very good Woodside
football teams before heading south to assist at
Sacred Heart Prep. Hes also a former Woodside
player, graduating in 1998. So to say that he
bleeds black and orange isnt an overstatement.
I love Woodside football, Bowie said. I care
about it and I want to see it continue and get to
those years when we had signicant success. I
really wanted to take it a little further and build
these kids into quality adults that are a part of
something bigger then themselves.
One of the main things that I really like about
these kids is that they all want to get better,
Bowie said. Theyre willing to push themselves.
The biggest thing is, they still dont know how
hard they can really go. They dont they can go
way past their own limitations. And what were
trying to do is show them different ways of doing
things. So far, the attitude has been great. Every
kid has been buying into what were doing and
buying into the philosophy of it.
Woodside could very well take their fair share
of bumps and bruises in 2012. But in a sense, this
season is about laying down a new and proper
foundation at Woodside since, for the rst time in
20 years, Steve Nicolopoulos will not roam the
Wildcat sidelines.
I think that they sense my enthusiasm for
Woodside football, Bowie said. Because I have
knowledge of these great teams of the past, I have
instant credibility with the kids. The other thing
too, being a Woodside alum, I have been in the
same seat as them. I know some of the challenges
these kids have to deal with, and because Im a
part of that Woodside family myself, I again have
that instant credibility with some of these kids.
These kids are eager to learn, theyre ready to
work hard and all they want to do is to get better.

ou know what I nd to be the most
impressive aspect of the Little
League World Series? Its not the 6-
3 kid from Petaluma, or the fact nearly every
player can hit moonshots well past the fence
and onto the hill beyond the outeld. Its not
the feel-good story about the team from
Uganda (which was absolutely inspirational.
If you didnt catch the Jimmy Rollins-led
feature before the United States champi-
onship game, nd it online), or the sheer
amount of attention these kids get.
No, what I nd most incredible is the journey
just to get there. Take the Petaluma team, for
example. Its coach said
in an interview the
team had played 25
tournament games to
that point. The incredi-
ble part? Neither
Petaluma nor any
other team on the U.S.
side had lost two
games in a row essen-
tially all summer long.
Think about that.
Teams have to win a
district championship, a
sectional title, a divisional crown and win a
regional tournament to get to Williamsport,
Pa. All the while, those teams can not lose
two games in any single tournament. One
loss makes the task that much harder, but at
least theyre still in it. Lose two? Done. Its
over.
These kids really are the best of the best.
***
While on the subject of the Little League
World Series, anyone else in awe of the sheer
distance some of these kids were hitting
home runs?
The ones I saw were no simple wall scrap-
ers. They were no-doubt-about-it blasts that
ended up on the hill behind the stadium in
Williamsport.
I dont begrudge the kids. Its something
every Little Leaguer dreams of: hitting a
home run. Regardless of the level of play, its
difcult to hit a homer. But when those Little
League kids at the World Series got a hold of
one, man they were impressive.
That being said, its time Little League
does something. The organization either
needs to move the fences back or dumb

49ers sign Masifilo, waive Beeler
SANTA CLARA The San Francisco
49ers have signed defensive tackle Matthew
Masilo to a two-year contract.
The 49ers also announced Wednesday that
they waived center Chase Beeler.
Masifilo originally signed with San
Francisco as an undrafted free agent out of
Stanford in May. He was released on
Monday, but brought back two days later.
Beeler spent last season on the teams prac-
tice squad.
Raiders pick up DB Coye Francies
ALAMEDA The Oakland Raiders have
claimed defensive back Coye Francies on
waivers from the Seattle Seahawks.
The Raiders announced the move
Wednesday, two days after Francies was
waived by Seattle.
Francies played in eight games with the
Cleveland Browns from 2009-10 and also has
experience as a kick returner. Oakland needs
help in that area with Denarius Moore and
Jacoby Ford both nursing injuries.
To make room on the teams active roster,
the Raiders waived defensive back Conroy
Black.
Oakland also moved offensive lineman
Zach Hurd (head), fullback Rashawn Jackson
(hip), and offensive lineman Ed Wang (shoul-
der) from waived/injured to injured reserve.
Former RB says Irish need bad guys
SOUTH BEND, Ind. Notre Dame ath-
letic director Jack Swarbrick took exception
Wednesday to comments by former Irish run-
ning back and current radio analyst Allen
Pinkett, who said a team needs to have some
bad guys because it provides an edge.
In a radio interview with Chicagos WSCR-
AM, Pinkett said: Ive always felt like, to
have a successful team, you have to have a
few bad citizens on the team.
In a statement before the team left for
Dublin for Saturdays season opener against
Navy, Swarbrick called Pinketts comments
nonsense.
Pinkett said thats how Ohio State used to
be get an edge.
Coach Brian Kelly recently suspended top
tailback Cierre Wood and backup defensive
end Justin Utupo for two games for violating
team rules. Earlier, quarterback Tommy Rees
and linebacker Carlo Calabrese were sus-
pended for Saturdays opener against Navy
for their roles in a skirmish with police fol-
lowing a party in May.

STANFORD Jordan Williamson walks
around the sunny, tree-lined Stanford campus
with a smile now. Hes surrounded by an
extended family of friends and fans he never
knew he had, willing to help him through the
most trying time of his young life.
Perhaps nobody has looked forward to No.
21 Stanfords season opener Friday night
against San Jose State more than the sopho-
more kicker. Now he can nally get past that
humbling night at the Fiesta Bowl, holding
nothing back about what happened or what
followed.
And make no mistake: Its been a long road
back.
Williamson has been reminded for nearly
nine months that he missed three eld goals in
the Arizona desert, including a potential game-
winner at the end of regulation and another in
overtime. He puts more blame on himself than
any of his coaches or teammates ever will for
his role in sending No. 1 overall pick Andrew
Luck and an elite class of seniors out with a
41-38 loss to Oklahoma State.
It was really difcult because I had never
been through anything like that before,
Williamson said this week in a rare interview
since the bowl game Jan. 2. I would say that
thats the toughest thing that I had to deal with.
I got advice from a lot of other people, and a
lot of people helped. Its just one of those
things that heal with time. Its something you
wont forget, but its something that you have
to use to motivate you.
Williamson is willing to talk about what for
so many months he couldnt.
His redshirt freshman season started strong.
He made his rst six eld goals and 11 of 12
to start the season, including two from beyond
40 yards. He had been a Lou Groza Award
seminalist for the nations top kicker.
Everything changed when he tore a groin
muscle in practice in October and missed three
games Southern California, Oregon State
and Oregon. Eric Whitaker went 4 of 5 lling
in during that stretch. Williamson returned and
missed 2 of 3 eld goals and did not handle
kickoffs in the nal two games against Notre
Dame and California.
Then came the Fiesta Bowl.
All three misses by the right-footed
Williamson landed left. He missed from 41
yards and made from 30 yards earlier in the
game. Stanford coach David Shaw ran out the
clock on Lucks nale drive a decision he
has repeatedly defended and set the stage
for Williamsons 35-yard attempt with the
game tied on the nal play of regulation.
To be honest, I was pretty excited,
Williamson said. I was feeling pretty good. I
was thinking things are going to go my way,
but obviously they didnt. That was a little dis-
appointing, but I was ready for it.
Unfortunately, it just didnt go my way.
Williamson, who also missed a 43-yarder in
overtime, is adamant that he was healthy
enough to play. He believes the misses were
due to his mechanics failing and the extended
time off from handling eld goals and kick-
offs.
Picked my head up a little quick, got excit-
ed and it just came across, he said. I think a
lot of people thought, Oh, it was a mental
deal. But to be honest, I dont really think
thats what it was. I think it was more me just
trying to get back in the rhythm and the differ-
ent timing.
After the game, Williamson wept in the cor-
ner of the locker room. Teammates shielded
him from reporters, patted him on the head,
tried to console him and offer words of encour-
agement. While there were nasty Facebook
messages, there were far more encouraging
emails and text messages.
Williamson returned home to Austin, Texas,
where he was met by a group of friends at the
airport. They took him out and tried to get his
mind off the misses. Alone at night, there were
more emotions for the psychology major.
Williamsons mother, Laura Burton, even
sent a letter to the parents of Stanford players
to express my utter sorrow for how things
played out and thanking them for never in
my life have I seen the kindness, maturity, and
love that has been displayed by this Stanford
family for helping her son.
Stanford kicker finally over misses
I got advice from
a lot of other
people, and a lot
people helped. Its
just one of those
things that heal
with time.

NEW YORK The NFL will open the reg-
ular season next week with replacement of-
cials and said it was prepared to use them as
much ... as necessary afterward.
Replacements will be on the eld beginning
Wednesday night when the Dallas Cowboys
visit the New York Giants in the season opener,
league executive Ray Anderson told the 32
teams in a memo. Negotiations are at a standstill
between the NFL and the ofcials union.
The NFL Referees Association was locked
out in early June and talks on a new collective
bargaining agreement have gone nowhere.
Replacements have been used throughout the
preseason, with mixed results.
In 2001, the NFL used replacements for the
rst week of the regular season before a con-
tract was nalized. The speed of the game and
the amount of time starters are on the eld
increase exponentially for real games, making
the replacements task more challenging.
Anderson, the NFLs executive vice president
of football operations, told the clubs in a memo
Wednesday that the replacements will work as
much of the regular season as necessary,
adding that training with each crew will contin-
ue.
The NFL noted it has expanded the use of
instant replay as an ofciating tool this year to
include all scoring plays and turnovers.
Ofciating supervisors will be on hand to assist
the crews on game administration issues.
We are not surprised, based on Ray
Andersons statements ... that the NFL was not
going to reach out to us, NFLRA spokesman
Michael Arnold said. However, this is consis-
tent with the NFLs negotiating strategy which
has been take it or leave it and lock them out.
It now appears the NFL is willing to forego any
attempt to reach a deal in the last seven days
before opening night.
The NFL Players Association, which went
through a 4 1/2- month lockout last year before
settling on a new contract, expressed disap-
pointment about the decision to use replace-
ments.
Colts safety Antoine Bethea said there is a
feeling of solidarity with the ofcials.
Theyve got to do what theyve got to do,
and we were in a similar situation a little while
ago, Bethea said. So you cant fault those
guys for doing what they have to do.
Anderson said the sides remain considerably
apart on economic issues, including salary and
retirement benets. He also told the teams there
is a substantial difference on operational issues.

TRANSACTIONS
CLEVELAND Josh Donaldson
hit a three-run homer and ve
Oakland Athletics pitchers combined
to beat the Cleveland Indians 8-4 on
Wednesday night.
Oakland took over the AL wild-
card lead by one game over
Baltimore with its 11th win in 13
games as Travis Blackley (5-3) gave
up two runs over 5 2-3 innings. Ryan
Cook got four outs for his 13th save.
Donaldson connected off rookie
Corey Kluber (0-3) in the fourth
inning for a 3-2 lead. Shoddy elding
by the Indians, losers of 13 of 14,
helped the Athletics later extend the
lead.
Jason Donalds homer in the third
broke the Indians 24-inning score-
less streak, but they fell to 5-26 since
July 27.
Indians shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera
was ejected in the rst inning by plate
umpire Gary Darling, who took
exception to the All-Star arguing a
called third strike. The whiff made
Cabrera 4 for 36 (.111) in his last 10
games.
Cleveland, scoreless in 52 of its last
57 innings, scored more than three
runs for the rst time in 10 games.
Yoenis Cespedis and Josh Reddick
each had three of Oaklands 15 hits as
the Athletics moved to 7-0 against the
Indians since April 22, outscoring
them 44-14.
Donalds homer was the Indians
rst run against the Athletics in 29
innings. They hadnt scored against
them since the ninth inning of an 8-5
loss in Oakland on Aug. 18.
Ezequiel Carrera then tripled and
scored on a groundout by Jason
Kipnis.
Donaldson made it 3-2 in the
fourth, hitting a two-out, 3-2 pitch
from Kluber for his third homer.
Klubers defense deserted him in
the sixth. With Reddick on rst with
a one-out ineld single, he got
Donaldson to ground to third. Jack
Hannahan elded the bouncer and
threw to second to start a possible
double play, but the ball went
through second baseman Donalds
legs, putting runners on rst and
third. Donald was charged with the
error for failing to get the low but
accurate throw.
Derek Norris followed with an
RBI grounder to rst baseman Matt
LaPorta, who stepped on rst for the
out. LaPorta turned to throw to sec-
ond for an inning-ending double
play, but instead held the ball before
throwing home, too high and too late
to get Reddick sliding in from third.
Seth Smith doubled home a run
and scored on Carters single in the
seventh to make it 6-2.
Cleveland scored two unearned
runs in the eighth following an error
by Donaldson at third.
Kluber struck out a career-high
seven without issuing a walk over six
innings.
As take wild card lead
As 8, Indians 4
By Kristie Rieken
HOUSTON Hunter Pence hit a
three-run homer and Joaquin Arias
drove in two with a triple to help the
San Francisco Giants to a 6-4 win over
the Houston Astros on Wednesday
night.
Pence has been a nightmare for the
Astros since they traded him away in
July 2011, hitting four homers in just
seven games against his former team
with the Phillies and Giants.
The Giants had a 1-0 lead before
Pences 19th homer pushed the lead to
4-0 and elicited the loudest cheers of
the night from the sparse crowd.
The announced attendance was just
13,207, the smallest crowd in the his-
tory of Houstons 12-year-old ball-
park. The previous record-low came a
night before as the Astros struggle to
get fans out to see this team that has
the worst record in the majors.
Houston cut the lead to 1 before
Arias triple in the sixth inning, which
came after an error by the Astros,
pushed the advantage to 6-3.
Angel Pagan hit a leadoff double,
advanced to third on a sacrice bunt
and scored on a single by Pablo
Sandoval to give San Francisco a 1-0
lead. Buster Posey walked before
Pences shot to left-center of Dallas
Keuchel (1-7) pushed the lead to 4-0.
Chris Snyder doubled in the second
inning and scored on a two-out single
by Brandon Barnes to cut the lead to
4-1. Snyder slid in behind Posey to
beat the throw home.
Jose Altuve singled and stole sec-
ond base in the third inning before
scoring after consecutive singles by
Tyler Greene and Brett Wallace. A
sacrice y by Jimmy Paredes sent
Greene home and got Houston within
4-3.
A single by Fernando Martinez
chased San Francisco starter Barry
Zito, who was replaced by George
Kontos (1-0). Kontos struck out four
in 2 2-3 scoreless innings for the win.
Zito yielded seven hits and three
runs in a season-low 2 1-3 innings.
Javier Lopez got the last two outs
for his fth save.
The loss is Houstons fourth straight
and its 11th in the last 12 games.
Keuchel had retired 14 in a row
after Pences homer before Marco
Scutaro started the sixth inning with a
double which bounced off the wall in
left eld.
Sandoval drew a walk after that to
end Keuchels night. He allowed four
hits and ve runs in 5-plus innings.
He was replaced by Mickey Storey,
who got Posey to ground into a double
play. Pence reached on an error by
third baseman Scott Moore before the
triple by Arias.
The y ball by Arias sailed just out
of reach of leaping left elder
Martinez and rolled into the corner to
score Sandoval and Pence and push
the lead to 6-3.
San Franciscos Guillermo Mota,
who was activated from the restricted
list on Tuesday after serving a 100-
game suspension for his second posi-
tive drug test, made his rst appear-
ance since May 5 in the sixth inning.
Mota allowed a hit and a walk in 2-3
innings.
Pence, Arias lead Giants over Astros

day, Gray said. He has more good days than bad and when he
has bad days, hes still having fun. Its contagious for the rest of
the kids as well.
While the passing game has been the staple of the Tigers offen-
sive attack the last several years, Gray said he expects to run the
ball a bit more this season. Tanner Piccolotti will get a bulk of the
carries, but expect Spain to also have a big year running the ball.
KRen is an active, elusive runner, Gray said. [Forbes] was
a very good runner. He was a quarterback who could run. KRen
is a running back playing quarterback.
Dominic DeSouza and David Smathers will anchor a big offen-
sive line for the Tigers. DeSouza is moving from right tackle to
left tackle while Smathers returns as the starting center.
The rest are young guys who played very well as freshmen and
sophomores, Gray said. Our offensive line is big and its rugged
and its powerful. [DeSouza] is 6-6, 265; left guard is 6-1, 260;
[Smathers] is 6-foot, 205; right guard in 6-foot, 220; and right
tackle is 6-1, 230.
While the offense should be ne, the big question mark for
Terra Nova comes on the defensive side where Gray will be
replacing nine of 11 starters from a year ago. Matt Motylewski
returns as a starting linebacker and Clark Tolero will be back as a
starting cornerback.
Everybody else is a new defensive player, either a senior who
got a lot of work as a junior, or some talented juniors coming up
from the frosh-soph ranks, Gray said. Were a reasonably young
football team. At times, we play like a young team. Were consis-
tently inconsistent.
Thats what the non-league portion of the schedule is for, to
give inexperienced players the experience they need if the Tigers
are to win their fourth-straight Bay Division title.
But Gray is looking even further than that. He knows that the
Bay Division champion will be playing in the Central Coast
Sections Open Division, so he schedules his non-league games
accordingly. The Tigers open the season against Sacred Heart
Cathedral and St. Ignatius the two CCS Division III nalists
from a year ago. Also on the schedule are perennial CCS teams
Pioneer and Salinas, along with Sacramento power Inderkum.
I absolutely refuse to schedule weaker teams in preseason. The
reason is, our goal, as always, is to win the PAL (Bay Division).
We need to nd out who we are and you cant do that by playing
lesser teams and racking up big wins, Gray said. If youre suc-
cessful in our league, youre going to end up playing a WCAL
school anyway (in the playoffs). You have to get your kids to work
up to that level. Were trying to elevate our level of play.
Our history has shown a very tough preseason contributes to
later success.
TIGERS
down the bats. The fences in Williamsport are 225 feet away
from the plate, all the way around the outeld. Before 2006,
the fences were at 205 feet. I think its time to move them
back even further because its obvious those distances cant
contain these kids.
To put it perspective, the right-eld fence at Aragon is only
286 feet and that is one of the shortest porches in all the
Peninsula Athletic League.
An easier solution might be to put more regulation on the
bat companies. In the wake of all the news about kids and
sports injuries, its amazing more kids arent being blasted by
comebackers off the barrels of these bats. Imagine if the ball
hit over the fence were hit directly at the pitcher or one of the
inelders? It could cause some serious damage.
Im not trying to take the fun or excitement out of the
game. I just think the stars should have to align pretty per-
fectly to hit a home run. I saw plenty of swings and hits that
should have been routine y balls only to see them soar,
majestically, out of the park.
It should have to be tougher than that.

LOUNGE
NEW YORK Preparing for what she knew would be her last
professional tennis tournament, Kim Clijsters four-time Grand
Slam title winner; mother of 4-year-old Jada devoted her effort
and energy to the U.S. Open.
Family time needed to wait a tad longer.
She was like, Why dont you come with us to go out, go for
a walk? Im like, Mamas almost done, Clijsters said
Wednesday after her singles career ended where she wanted it to,
just not the way she hoped. So, yeah, I think shes going to be
excited to kind of have her mom around more, on a more regular
kind of basis.
Clijsters lost 7-6 (4), 7-6 (5) to 18-year-old Laura Robson of
Britain in the second round of the U.S. Open, and will head into
retirement after she nishes playing doubles at Flushing
Meadows.
Its been an incredible journey, and a lot of dreams for me have
come true because of tennis. As a little girl, I got Christmas rack-
ets under the tree and outts of Stef Graf and Monica Seles, and
I would want to wear them to bed, I was so excited, Clijsters said.
So for me to have been able to have been a part of womens ten-
nis, and on top of womens tennis for so many years you dont
think about it when youre in it; youre kind of on automatic pilot.
... Now that I think about it, its been a crazy rollercoaster at times,
as well.
She walked away from the sport once before, in May 2007, then
returned after a hiatus of two-plus years. Now 29, the Belgian
insisted this season that she means it this time, and decided the
U.S. Open and its hard courts that she conquered on the way
to three championships would be her nal tournament.
Clijsters ends career
with loss at U.S. Open
be on offense. Bowie brings with him the y sweep from
Sacred Heart Prep and he said he has the trio of runners and an
offensive line that can execute the new game plan.
That line is led by Kiola Mahoni, a three-year varsity play-
er.
Hes a physical specimen that can run and block, Bowie
said. And hes a team leader for us out there.
Taking the snaps is new varsity quarterback Titus Uelese.
Hell hand the ball off to Seth Humble, Tommy Cook or Oscar
Constantini the latter two being juniors.
Our goal is to run that offense crisp, move the ball, no mat-
ter what the defense is doing, Bowie said. We have to take
what the defense gives us offensively. If they do stack it up,
then we have to be able to open it up.
To open thing up, Bowie said hes got a dangerous weapon
in the physically-gifted Matt Koloamatangi. He can play basi-
cally anything you want, Bowie said. I think hell be tough
for other teams to game plan for.
On defense, Bowie said hes got himself a gem in linebacker
Michael Barragon. We think hes going to be the real deal for
us, Bowie said. He hasnt played linebacker much, but his
instincts are incredible. Just watching him last week (in a
scrimmage), he made some plays that you just cant coach. He
plays with an intensity and re. I think hes really going to
shock some people this year.
Barragon is joined by Aaron Garcia at the inside linebacker
position. Hes the vocal leader, Bowie said, the emotional
leader of this team.
Because Bowie took over the Wildcats so late in the summer,
there has been and will continue to be a learning curve for
player and coach alike. But Bowie is optimistic about the ini-
tial returns.
Guys shock me every day, Bowie said. And thats the
beauty of it. You see new things and possibilities from all the
kids. Because of the kids are working so hard, its nice to go
out there and see them get better. Im seeing different kids
shine.

Decor dreams take ight
when dollhouse decorating
In a kids entertainment world of expensive
game systems and disposable plastic toys, there
is an alternative: Make something. Play with it.
The do-it-yourself trend, which embraces
projects in electronics, engineering and crafts,
dovetails nicely with the perennially popular,
mainly girl-driven activity of decorating. An
abundance of room-decorating games appears
online; Girlsgogames.com has at least 30
games in which a bare space a witchs
house, say, or a Chinese palace or a baby nurs-
ery can be revamped.
Making or redecorating an actual dollhouse
in the real, not virtual, world isnt as easy as
clicking on colors and furniture; it takes time,
creativity, and patience. The reward? It actually
exists.
My girls dollhouse, a $5 yard sale nd, has
four tall rooms and an attic. Currently, the
store-bought Barbie furniture mingles with
repainted wooden furniture and sits on rugs
made from origami paper and fabric scraps.
The walls are covered with contact paper or
scrapbook paper or, in one case, white printer
paper. That wall is a doodle wall, my 8-year-
old recently proclaimed, demonstrating its use.
I wish I lived in this house, she added.
The house has fullled many fantasies: It has
contained traditional bedrooms and living
rooms, boutiques and cafes, playgrounds and
kennels, depending on the current interest of
the decorator. We sit down with whatever
paper and fabric we have around, occasionally
raiding the magazine rack or the bag of out-
grown clothing. I can participate without direct-
ing; I just take a room. I have my own bathroom
renovation dreams.
Angela Holton of Larchmont, N.Y., also got
a dollhouse started and watched her daughter
run with it.

Police Chief Mike Massoni yesterday.
As Gaines fell to the ground, a gun fell
from his person onto the ground close to the
teens knee, according to the letter to
Massoni.
Before Officer Cabillo could even man-
age to say the words dont, Mr. Gaines lift-
ed up his shoulders, began to sit up, and with
his right hand reached across his body
toward the firearm on the ground by his left
side. At that point, Officer Cabillo believed
that the subject was reaching for the firearm.
Officer Cabillo concluded that he did not
have enough time to get to the firearm
before the subject would, and believed that
once the firearm was seized by Gaines that it
would be used on the officer. Fearing for his
life, Officer Cabillo fired a shot, which hit
the subject in the neck, Wagstaffe wrote in
the letter to Massoni.
The officer immediately started life-sav-
ing techniques on Gaines, who died later at
a hospital. It was later determined that the
gun Gaines was carrying, a .45 revolver, was
inoperable due to the absence of a firing pin.
An autopsy showed Gaines had cocaine,
methamphetamine and amphetamine in his
blood. Both marijuana and methampheta-
mine pills were also recovered from his per-
son upon removal of his clothing, according
to the District Attorneys Office.
Cabillo has been on paid administrative
leave since the incident and will not face
criminal charges.
Friends of Gaines and his family
expressed disappointment in the district
attorneys findings yesterday.
It is unbelievable, said family friend
Georgeann Farrar. Seriously, I dont think it
is justified at all.
Farrar, a family friend for 10 years who
visited with the teen earlier in the day before
he was shot, said Gaines had some troubles
but should not have been killed.
He lived with Piper, who resides near the
scene of the shooting.
Piper and Gaines mother, Rachel Guido-
Red, had been planning a speakout and
march at the gas station Sept. 20, which
would have been his 16th birthday.
We want to make sure this man, the offi-
cer who shot Derrick, will not be on the
streets. We want his job, and I want him
behind bars, Guido-Red wrote in a media
advisory announcing the planned march
Tuesday before the District Attorneys
Office announced its findings yesterday.
Family attorney John Burris could not be
reached for comment yesterday. Burris, a
civil rights attorney, is famous for represent-
ing the family of Oscar Grant, slain by a
BART police officer in 2009. Grants family
was awarded millions in two separate civil
suits.
Wagstaffe sent the letter to Massoni yes-
terday explaining the offices findings.
It is my conclusion that the use of lethal
force under the circumstances encountered
by Officer Cabillo on that date, although
tragic, was justifiable pursuant to the provi-
sions of California Penal Code Section 196,
Wagstaffe wrote in the letter to Massoni.
Cabillo noticed that Gaines continued to
make furtive gestures with his hands in his
waist area at the gas station on Westborough
and Gellert boulevards. Cabillo was suspi-
cious that the decedent was hiding some
type of contraband, such as drugs or
weapons, due to Gaines furtive gestures and
evasive movements, in an attempt to avoid
the officer, according to Wagstaffes letter.
Gaines and his friend Remy Carrillo kept
looking over their shoulders at the officer,
causing Cabillo to become increasingly sus-
picious, according to the letter.
Minutes later, Cabillo shot Gaines in the
neck as the teen was reaching for the .45,
according to the letter.
Multiple witnesses corroborated the offi-
cers telling of the story, according to the let-
ter.
After Gaines death, officials with the
National Association for the Advancement
of Colored People rallied at the scene of the
teens shooting to protest police brutality
and harassment.

GAINES
We won; hes there, she said Tuesday
just before getting on a flight to London.
Joe Wise was a swimmer prior to his diag-
nosis. His passion, however, was baseball. It
was while playing baseball that his parents
noticed Joe Wise was running funny. The
family took him to the doctor. It took about
six months and many incorrect diagnoses
before the family was given the diagnosis of
mitochondrial disease. It actually resulted in
the doctors testing Joes younger brother
who also has the muscular disorder.
While the diagnosis was devastating,
Marie Wise said the family made a choice to
make their boys lives as normal as possible.
Running was out but swimming could still
work. Joe Wise also has asthma, which is
actually why his mom originally pushed him
into the sport. She had learned many
Olympic swimmers had asthma but that the
steam from the pool helped. Despite not
always enjoying the sport, Joe Wise was fast
from a young age, his mom recalled. After
watching another local swimmer compete in
Olympic trials, Joe Wise was excited about
the sport.
While a student at Sacred Heart
Preparatory School in Atherton, Wise got his
chance to compete in the Beijing Paralympic
Games, an international multi-sport event
where athletes with a physical disability
compete. The games are held immediately
after the Olympic Games. He was 15, the
youngest swimmer there, at the time and
placed fifth in the 400-meter freestyle.
Just getting there in the first place was a
challenge. As a result of the disorder, Joe
Wise uses a ventilator twice a day at
night when he sleeps and during the day
when he naps. Marie Wise attributes the help
from everyone who has supported her son
and family as getting him this far. Doctors,
coaches, family members and schools have
all played a part, she said.
Joe Wise is a sophomore at Loyola
University in Maryland this year studying
political science and communication with a
hope of becoming a disability rights lawyer.
Training was particularly difficult for the
2012 games as Joe Wise was struggling with
his diagnosis earlier this year. With the sup-
port of so many, Marie Wise is just happy to
see her son compete. And she certainly will
have a chance to see him in lots of events.
Joe Wise will compete in the 200 individual
medley, 400 freestyle, 100 freestyle, 100
breaststroke and 100 butterfly this year start-
ing today and running through Sept. 6.
Hes outlived his expected life. He has
amazing focus and courage, said Marie
Wise.

WISE
THURSDAY, AUGUST 30, 2012
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- A matter that is quite
meaningful to you is likely to be resolved to your
advantage, yet you might still think you didnt get
enough. Dont get greedy.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Youll think far more
highly of yourself if you dont modify your views just
to placate another. Be your own person at all times,
and let the chips fall as they may.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- When it comes to an
issue that could advance your work or career, dont
broadcast your intentions in advance. If you do so, a
competitor who steals your ideas could beat you out.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Be on guard if you
are in the company of two friends who are having a
disagreement, so that youre not put in the middle.
Whichever side you choose will get you in trouble.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Your fnancial affairs
could turn out favorably, provided you are prudent
in the management of your funds. Dont let a good
margin get out of hand.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Do not pepper your
thoughts with reasons why something cant be done.
Instead, focus your imagination on positive elements
regarding ways to accomplish your purposes.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- If you are able to
separate the wheat from the chaff, this can be a
productive day for you. Dont devote more time to the
insignifcant than to the benefcial and rewarding.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- When involved in a
group endeavor, single out one person who is shy
and hanging back. Youre the one who can get him or
her to join in and enjoy what is going on.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Although things in
general are favorable for you, nothing is likely to be
handed to you on a silver platter. What you get must
be acquired by your own merit.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- By being methodical
and practical, the possibilities for fulflling your aims
will be substantially enhanced. Dont let opportunities
of great potential go unfulflled.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You must be able to
recognize the difference between a good value judg-
ment and a poor one in order to be successful. Dont
waste time on that which yields sparse rewards.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Although you might be in-
clined to think otherwise, someone with whom youre
involved will be far more considerate and tolerant
than you are. Look at yourself realistically.

Welcome to the 42nd
Annual Millbrae Art &
Wine Festival
T
he Millbrae Chamber of Commerce welcomes
you to the 42nd annual Millbrae Art & Wine
Festival. With over 200 artists, 20 food vendors,
great live entertainment, a fun-flled childrens
area, interesting sponsor presentations and
fve locations along Broadway to purchase your
favorite beverage we are certain that there is
something for everyone at this years festival!
Not only is the Art & Wine Festival a fun event
to shop for unique, hand-made arts and crafts
and to eat great food, but also it is a way for us to
showcase Millbraes merchants and restaurants.
We encourage you to visit them during and after
the festival.
As you make your way along the festival route,
you will want to stop by the Millbrae Cantina and
the Classically Cool Car Show, located in the city
parking lot towards the south end of the festival.
It is the place to see great street rods and classic
cars, sit down, relax and have a cold beverage,
and sample tasty, seasonal microbrews in our
tasting tent. Youll also want to make time for the
gifted, young entertainers at the Streets Filled
with Talent Community Stage sponsored by South
San Francisco Scavenger Company. We have also
added some new seating areas along the festival
for the comfort of our attendees.
The proceeds from the festival help fund the
Chambers activities including business develop-
ment, legislative and governmental affairs,
scholarship programs, and a variety of commu-
nity events. We invite you to visit our Informa-
tion Booth located between Hillcrest and Taylor
along the festival route to learn more about the
Millbrae Chamber of Commerce.
It is through the dedicated efforts of the Cham-
bers Art & Wine Festival committee, all of the
volunteers, and the City of Millbrae that we are
able to once again bring you the Bay Areas best
Labor Day Weekend event. Special thanks are due
to the following people for their efforts in this
years event: Sgt. Ron Caine (Police Services),
Linda Maule (Block Captain Coordinator), Lee
Clothakis (Volunteer Coordinator).
We would also like to acknowledge the efforts
of the Boy Scout Troop 355 who perform the
trash collection and clean up services throughout
the weekend and the Millbrae Police Explorers
who provide traffc control services during the
festival. Millbrae Community Television (MCTV)
will, once again, be on site during the weekend
doing live broadcasts from the festival literally
bringing the event into our residents homes.
We also express our gratitude and thanks to our
many outstanding corporate partners whose gen-
erous support helps make the festival possible.
Again we welcome you and hope you enjoy all that
our festival offers. Please be kind to your pets
and leave them in the comfort of their home. Put
on some sunscreen, comfortable shoes and come
enjoy the fun.
Ive heard from many people theyve never seen
a community that is so enthusiastically support-
ive of its hometown festival than Millbrae. For
that, we can all be proud.

merce, please visit

last to the past with sensational Beatles and Journey tribute
bands. Crank it up with the best of 80s rock and roll. Pulsate to
high-energy Latin rhythms. Kick back and enjoy some original west
coast blues. Whatever your musical tastes, eight dynamite bands
turn the downtown streets of Millbrae into the Bay Areas enter-
tainment hotspot for a weekend during the Art & Wine Festival,
September 1-2 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Broadway.
Evolution A Tribute to Journey truly defes description. These
fve musicians make it their lifes work to capture the sound, spirit,
and energy of a 1980s Steve Perry era Journey show. Fans and crit-
ics alike claim that, if you close your eyes, you will believe you are
experiencing Journey. No wonder they were named the KFOX Top
Tribute Band in Northern California.
Rock On Broadway deftly conjures the sounds of Van Halen, Bon
Jovi, Pat Benatar, Whitesnake, Mtley Crue, Journey, Heart, Def
Leppard, and Ozzy Osbourne, to name a few. With three smashing
sets, there is plenty of 80s rock to re-live. Featuring Ronaldo Vezza-

American counterpartsPhilly cheesesteaks. Vegetarians will de-

key-lime-marinated fried calamari accompanied by lime-watercress
pesto. Succulent cheesesteak sandwiches and fried calamari are

Legendary East Bay gourmet Mike Hustlar makes no beans about
naming his most popular item the giant bad-ass sausage. It takes
a giant appetite to tackle this half-pound of smoked pork and beef
with grilled onions and sauerkraut stuffed into a substantial roll.
He also offers a corndog for more moderate appetites.
The friendly folks at Earthly Delights are serious about their
selection of succulent sandwiches, cooking up Philly cheesesteaks,
Italian garlic chicken sandwiches, Cajun chicken sandwiches, and
barbecued pork sandwiches, as well as addictive Parmesan-garlic
fries.
Despite its dessert-y name, Sweet Delights has garnered a follow-
ing for hand-dipped foot-long corn dogs and succulent sausages.
They do deliver the sweets, though, with fuffy gourmet funnel
cakes topped with fresh strawberries, bananas or mango and a
dollop of whipped cream.
People line up at Uncle Bills Gourmet Corndogs for one item and
one item only. They say the batter is so light its like eating crisp-

rice with vegetables.

and whipped cream orfor the little Franois or
Franoise in all of usNutella.
And for something completely different, check
out the Silly Spuds fried up by the family-run
Manor Coffee Shop in San Franciscos West Portal
neighborhood. Like a giant spiral French fry made
of an entire potato, theyre practically a meal in
themselves when accompanied by one of the 14
seasonings including bacon-cheese, barbecue,
Parmesan and pizza.
A summer street fair wouldnt be complete with-
out plenty of corn. Ear-Good Corn Roaster offers
bi-color ears served just roasted and on the husk
with their own handle for easy eating.
Olde Tyme Kettle Corn satisfes the salty-sweet
tooth with the classic snack that will never go out
of style. Its the perfect stroll-around snack!
In the September sun, just about everybody is
craving something cool and sweet. Kurlander

butter pecan and pia colada.

downand powering up. The super healthy

apples, grapefruit, kale, baby spinach, collard
greens, chard, and fax. For folks looking for a
little drama in their cup, Volcano Splash drinks,

ans of classic, custom and exotic cars will be thrilled to hear
that the Classically Cool Car Show will kick things up a notch
at this years Millbrae Art & Wine Festival, September 1-2 from 10
a.m. to 5 p.m. on Broadway.
An incredible array of vintage touring cars, custom hot rods,
powerful muscle cars, and sleek sports cars are just a sampling of
the cars expected to be on display each day.
A different set of cars will be displayed each day, so its worth
coming out both days to check out the magnifcent machines, said
festival chair Lisa Fitzgibbons-Charney.
The car show will be located in the festivals popular Cantina, on
Broadway between Victoria and La Cruz. Along with the car show,
the Cantina features the Microbrew Tasting tent with an excep-
tional selection of seductive and tasty seasonal craft brews from
the top producers in the world and great live music by local rockers
Abandoned Space.
The Cantinas evolved into the perfect spot to kick back at some
point during the festival, said Fitzgibbons-Charney. Its a shaded
oasis where you can sit down, take a break, enjoy some live music,
sample the delicious microbrews in our tasting tent, and then
wander among the rows of world-class cars.
