After working without a contract for more
than a year, about 750 registered nurses have
reached a tentative agreement on a new col-
lective bargaining agreement with Mills-
Peninsula Health Services.
Details of the deal are scarce, however, as
California Nurses Association members will
take a vote Thursday, Oct. 4 on whether to rat-
ify the new contract.
A tentative three-year deal was reached
Tuesday night after months of negotiations
that led to a few one-day strikes and subse-
quent four-day lockouts. The contract, if
approved, will cover this past year and expires
in June 2014.
The CNA represents the registered nurses
who work at Mills-Peninsula, a Sutter Health
Affiliate, which operates hospitals in
Burlingame and San Mateo.
Key to the agreement was the decision by
local hospital ofcials to withdraw more than
three dozen substantial reductions in patient
care protections and nurses economic and
contract standards, as well as improvements
in safe stafng, according to a statement
released by the CNA yesterday.
On pay, the nurses will receive a 2 percent
increase a year over the next two years,
according to the CNA.
Hospital ofcials praised the deal.
This has been a long and challenging
process and we believe the result is a fair
agreement for all concerned, Maynard
Jenkins, the health systems vice president of
Human Resources wrote the Daily Journal in

Her daughter was the 9-year-old who was groped and

SACRAMENTO Gov. Jerry Brown
announced Wednesday that he has signed
legislation that could reduce the use of
standardized tests in calculating the annu-

Under the bill, the Academic
Performance Index rankings will be calcu-
lated using a combination of test scores,
attendance and graduation rates, as well as
other yet undetermined measures to gauge student learning.
Those measures could include whether students are promot-
ed to the next grade or prepared for college-level courses.

Police: Drunken man on
horse arrested after chase
BUNNELL, Fla. A man was intox-
icated while riding his horse as he led
police on a half-hour chase through a
northeast Florida town, authorities said
Tuesday.
Charles Larkin Cowart, 29, was arrest-
ed Monday afternoon in the city of
Bunnell, about 60 miles south of
Jacksonville.
A police ofcer was responding to a
report of an intoxicated male riding a
horse when he turned on his emergency
lights to stop trafc as Cowart crossed
the street, according to the charging af-
davit. Cowart said he was on his way to
his grandmothers house in nearby
Flagler Beach, but refused ofcers order
to dismount and in an aggressive man-
ner reared the horse back and took off
running.
Ofcers did not immediately chase
after him, the report said, citing the pub-
lic and the horses safety. Cowart contin-
ued to ride through town, causing a
crowd of people to come out of their
homes and a train to slow down as
Cowart crossed over a set of railroad
tracks. Police kept their emergency lights
on, but did not use their sirens to prevent
the horse from being frightened and
potentially making the situation worse.
Cowart ignored several verbal com-
mands to get off the horse, which after
more half an hour, became exhausted.
Cowart eventually jumped off and took
off running. He was captured a short time
later. The horse returned to Cowarts
family and is doing ne, police said.
Cowart was booked into the Flagler
County Jail on charges that included dis-
orderly conduct, resisting arrest without
violence and cruelty to animals. He was
being held Tuesday on $7,000 bond.
A message was left Tuesday at a phone
listing for Cowart in Bunnell, about 60
miles south of Jacksonville. It was not
immediately known if he has an attorney.
Cowart was arrested for petit theft on
Sept. 9 and on a DUI charge in October
2010. The disposition of those charges
wasnt immediately known.
Owner of cussing
cockatoo appealing noise fine
WARWICK, R.I. The owner of a
foul-mouthed cockatoo in Rhode Island
who was slapped with a $15 ne for vio-
lating a noise ordinance is appealing.
The Providence Journal reports that
Warwick resident Lynne Taylor is
appealing to a state court a ne imposed
by a municipal judge. The judge said
Taylor had broken a local law that pro-
hibits residents from letting their pets
habitually howl, bark or make other
noise.
Taylors lawyer says the ordinance is
unconstitutional because it gives no
parameters for what noise constitutes a
violation. He notes the statute says that if
someone is annoyed, its a public nui-
sance.
A neighbor accused Taylors bird of
parroting vulgar phrases, cursing and
loudly speaking expletives. The neighbor
lives with Taylors ex-husband.
Mr. Sexy Back tries
to bring Myspace back
NEW YORK Who am I to say I

Those are the opening lines of a song
that accompanies a New Myspace pro-
motional video. The once-mighty social
network is trying to stage yet another
comeback with the help of Justin
Timberlake. The new site, for which peo-
ple can request an invitation, looks a bit
like an entertainment-focused version of
Pinterest, with a dash of Twitter and
Facebook thrown in.
But Myspace has tried redesigns
before, to no avail. Will it work this
time?
If you break my heart a second time,
I might never be the same, continues the
song, Heartbeat, by the group JJAMZ.
From the sound if it, Myspace wants to
win the hearts and minds of tech-savvy
hipsters. Founded in 2003 and initially a
fast-rising star, Myspace attracted mostly
teenagers and twentysomethings, offer-
ing them a place to express themselves
online. It peaked in 2008 with some 76
million U.S. visitors in October.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A bill to warn prospective tenants when the
property they are looking to rent is subject to
foreclosure was signed into law by Gov. Jerry
Brown Tuesday.
Senate Bill 1191 requires that a landlord
who receives a notice of default provide writ-
ten notice to any prospective tenant before a
lease is signed. Under existing law, a landlord
is not required to disclose this fact to a
prospective tenant.
The bill was authored by state Sen. Joe
Simitian, D-Palo Alto, and was a winning
entry in the lawmakers There Oughta Be a
Law contest.
The bill proposal was submitted by
Samantha James of San Jose. About a year
ago, James rented a property, paid her securi-
ty deposit and furnished her apartment, only
to nd out two months later that it was in fore-
closure. Sale of the property had been sched-
uled at various times, and then postponed,
according to Simitians ofce.
As James noted in her contest entry, proper-
ties in foreclosure might soon change owners,
possibly forcing a new tenant to move out
within months, or making
it difcult to get a security
deposit returned.
I am extremely pleased
that the governor signed
this bill, Simitian wrote
in a statement. In this
foreclosure crisis, much of
the focus has been on
homeowners, and renters
have gotten lost in the
shufe. This bill, once it
becomes law, is going to ensure that renters
dont get their homes yanked out from under
them, and are fully informed before they sign
a lease on the dotted line.
A foreclosure sale can extinguish leases.
For example, if the new owner intends to
make the property their residence, then exist-
ing leases are invalid.
Additionally, during foreclosure, tenants
can face:
Loss of their security deposit;
Decreased services from the landlord;
Additional moving and refurnishing costs;
and
Having to change schools for children.
The bill is a common sense solution. It
doesnt prohibit a landlord from renting a
home; it simply requires the owner to ensure
that the tenant has full disclosure about the
rental home that is currently facing foreclo-
sure, Debra Carlton, senior vice president of
the California Apartment Association, wrote
in a statement.
SB 1191 allows tenants to void the lease if a
landlord fails to disclose the foreclosure and
sets forth other penalties.
The bill takes effect on Jan. 1, 2013.
The bill was opposed by the Rental Housing
Coalition, a nonprot, the San Diego County
Apartment Association and the Apartment
Association of Greater Los Angeles among
others.
The groups urged Brown to veto the legisla-
tion.
SB 1191 may be well-intentioned but in an
effort to help consumers make better-
informed decisions, the author has overlooked
the potentially destructive impacts the bill
could have on property owners, including the
likelihood of hastening foreclosures, accord-
ing to a RHC statement.

A man charged with touching the buttocks of
a 6-year-old girl shopping with her family at a
San Bruno Target store also committed an inap-
propriate act on another child the same day,
according to prosecutors who said he was
caught on video surveillance.
After Glenn Albrecht, 39, was arrested Aug.
26, authorities reviewed store tapes and report-
edly spotted him improperly touching an 11-
year-old girl after the rst incident and before
police took him into custody. The girl did not
report the incident but police were able to iden-
tify her and she described the man grabbing her
buttocks with his hand, according to the District
Attorneys Ofce.
At the time, prosecutors charged Albrecht
with a lewd act and child
pornography possession in
that case, he was already
facing a similar molestation
charge for the earlier
alleged incident. Police say
Albrecht, wearing a shirt
emblazoned with the slogan
Rub me for luck, touched
the girl when she wandered
by herself into an aisle. The
girl told her parents immediately and pointed
out a man later identied as Albrecht when he
reentered the store. The father struck Albrecht
and store security detained him until police
arrived.
A search of Albrechts home turned up a life-
sized doll of a female child, according to the
District Attorneys Ofce.
Prosecutors will seek to consolidate the two
cases and set a preliminary hearing date Oct. 30.
He has no signicant criminal history in San
Mateo County and was out of custody on a
$100,000 property bond. However, Albrecht
was remanded on $200,000 after the new case
was charged.
He will ask for a bail reduction at his upcom-
ing court appearance.

Father of murder
suspect convicted of molestation
SAN JOSE The father of a man accused in the disap-

convicted of sexually molesting a younger female relative.
Prosecutors say 51-year-old Genaro Garcia Fernandez
repeatedly raped his relative beginning when she was 7 years
old. A jury in Morgan Hill on Wednesday found guilty of 17
counts. He faces a life sentence.
The molestations took place in the same San Martin home
where his 21-year-old son Antolin Garcia-Torres grew up. His
son has been charged with murder and kidnapping in the dis-
appearance of Sierra LaMar.
The younger Garcia-Torres is being held without bail pend-
ing trial. The Morgan Hill teenager went missing in March

County supervisors will keep a fire
engine running in the Highlands area
of San Mateo County another three
months while awaiting a final analysis
on whether it should be closed for
good.
The Board of Supervisors, at its
annual budget adoption Tuesday,
agreed to fund Engine 17 on Tower
Road through December when county
staff are expected to come back with its
final report. The extra three months of
full staffing costs $250,000.
Although the report is not complete,
Deputy County Manager Peggy Jensen
said the initial look showed that Station
17, which houses both the county
Engine 17 and Cal Fire Engine 1, has a
relatively low number of incident calls.
Very few calls, too, involve both
engines simultaneously called to dif-
ferent situations. Instead, Engine 17
spends a significant amount of time
covering for other companies.
San Mateo County has been mulling
shared services as a way to cut costs
and increase efficiencies. Talks are
ongoing with the cities of San Carlos
and Redwood City about combining
fire services in the Edgewood/Alameda
de las Pulgas area and, in June, looked
at reducing Engine 17. Station 17
would still house Cal Fire Engine 1.
The board asked then for a report back
in September on the potential impacts
but Jensen said more time is needed for
consultants to wrap up their work and
gather feedback from the Highlands
community.
The consultants also want to look at
how much time all engines in the sur-
rounding area spend on training activi-
ties.
The supervisors shared some worry
about how quickly the engine might be
closed once the final report is returned
in December but County Manager John
Maltbie was hopeful a plan can be
worked out to ease the transition.
Maltbie also told the board the
$250,000 can be accommodated in the
adopted budget.

Planned natural gas
venting causes concern
A planned venting of a natural gas line for

The company had notied residents of its

Route 92 and Interstate 280, but it took place
later in the day than the original 1 p.m.-3 p.m.
window. Instead, the work began at 4:45 p.m.,
according to PG&E.
Winds had shifted and caused the natural
gas to have a greater impact than expected,
according to PG&E. The company asks that

BRANSON, Mo. For many Americans,
particularly those on the older OK, squarer
side of the generation gap, Andy Williams
was part of the soundtrack of the 1960s and
70s, with easy-listening hits like Moon
River, the Love Story theme and The
Most Wonderful Time of the Year from his
beloved Christmas TV specials.
The singer known for his wholesome, mid-
dle-America appeal was the antithesis of the
counterculture that produced rock and roll.
The old cliche says that if you can remem-
ber the 1960s, you werent there, Williams
once recalled. Well, I was there all right, but
my memory of them is
blurred not by any
drugs I took but by the
relentless pace of the
schedule I set myself.
The entertainer, who
died Tuesday night at his
Branson home following
a yearlong battle with
bladder cancer, had a
plaintive tenor, boyish
features and clean-cut demeanor that helped
him outlast many of the decades rock stars
and fellow crooners such as Frank Sinatra
and Perry Como. He remained on the charts
into the 1970s and continued to perform into
his 80s.

SAN FRANCISCO The University of
California has agreed to pay $1 million to set-
tle a lawsuit led by demonstrators who were
pepper-sprayed during an Occupy protest at
UC Davis last fall, according to a preliminary
settlement led Wednesday.
The Nov. 18, 2011, incident prompted
national outrage, angry campus protests and
calls for the resignation of Chancellor Linda
Katehi after online videos shot by witnesses
went viral.
Images of a police ofcer casually spraying
orange pepper-spray in the faces of nonviolent
protesters became a rallying symbol for the
Occupy Wall Street movement. The demon-
strators had been protesting steep tuition hikes
and police brutality.
Under the proposed settlement, UC would
pay $30,000 to each of 21 plaintiffs named in
the complaint and an additional $250,000 for
their attorneys to split.
Katehi, who has publicly apologized for the
incident, would be required to issue a formal
written apology to each of the plaintiffs, who
are current students or recent alumni.
If the $1 million settlement is approved,
total costs associated with the incident could
exceed $2 million, according to the
Sacramento Bee newspaper. Those expenses
come as UC faces the prospect of deep budg-
et cuts if Gov. Jerry Browns tax initiative fails
in November.

Charter idea to
go before SMUHSD board
The concept of a 400-student charter
school will be presented to the San Mateo
Union High School District Board of
Trustees tonight.
The six-page presentation from
Capuchino Vice Principal Ken Montgomery
and teacher Nicole Cerra explains a number
of ideas for a school called Ideal High
School, or i.hs.
It outlines a vision for a creative environ-
ment thats different from the traditional
classroom and pulls from Stanford
University research. Also, students and
teachers would use a flexbook online plat-
form to individualize work.
The overview provides no information
about a timeline, possible location or
finances.
At the same meeting, the board will dis-
cuss naming a building at Capuchino in
honor of former superintendent Sam
Johnson Jr. Also, the district will vote to
approve the athletic manual.
The board meets 7 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 27
at the San Mateo Adult School, 789 E.
Poplar Ave., San Mateo.

WESTERVILLE, Ohio
Slipping in states that could sink
his presidential bid, Republican
Mitt Romney declared Wednesday
that I care about the people of
America and can do more than
President Barack Obama to
improve their lives. In an all-day
Ohio duel, Obama scoffed that a
challenger who calls half the
nation victims was unlikely to
be of much help.
Romneys approach reflected
what he is up against: a widening
Obama lead in polls in key states
such as Ohio, the backlash from a
leaked video in which he dispar-
ages Obama supporters as govern-
ment-dependent people who see
themselves as victims, and a cam-
paign imperative to make his pol-
icy plans more
plain.
With under
six weeks to go,
and just one
week before the
first big debate,
Obamas cam-
paign reveled in
the latest public
polling but
tried to crush any sense of over-
confidence. If we need to pass
out horse blinders to all of our
staff, we will do that, said cam-
paign spokeswoman Jen Psaki.
The days setting was Ohio,
where Obamas momentum has
seemed to be growing. Its also a
state no Republican has won the
White House without carrying.
Romney, eager to project confi-
dence and brush aside suggestions
that he was faltering, went after
working-class voters outside
Columbus and Cleveland before
rolling to Toledo. Obama rallied
college crowds at Bowling Green
State University and Kent State
University, reminding Ohioans
their state allows them to start
cast ballots next week. Early vot-
ing has already begun in more
than two dozen other states.
For Romney, in his appearances
and in a new TV ad in which he
appeals straight to the camera, it
was time for plain talk to contrast
himself with Obama, and to
mince no words about his expec-
tations.
There are so many people in
our country who are hurting right
now. I want to help them. I know
what it takes, Romney told the
crowd in Westerville. I care
about the people of America, and
the difference between me and
Barack Obama is I know what to
do.
Polls slipping: Romney assures voters he cares
By Steve Peoples
ABOARD AIR FORCE ONE
The White House said
Wednesday that President Barack
Obama considers the deadly
assault on the U.S. consulate in
Libya a terrorist attack.
White House spokesman Jay
Carney said it is certainly the
case that it is our view as an
administration, and the presi-
dents view, that it was a terrorist
attack. Four Americans were
killed in the attack, including
Chris Stevens, the U.S. ambassa-
dor to Libya.
Carneys comments came after
Republican Mitt Romney accused
Obama of failing to acknowledge
what Secretary of State Hillary
Rodham Clinton and other offi-
cials have said that the attacks
in Benghazi were acts of terror-
ism against the U.S.
Obama has declined several
chances to call the incident a ter-
rorist attack. He said last week
that extremists used an anti-Islam
video as an excuse to assault U.S.
interests.

WASHINGTON It still divides
us, but most Americans think
President Barack Obamas health
care law is here to stay.
More than 7 in 10 say the law will
fully go into effect with some
changes, ranging from minor to
major alterations, a new Associated
Press-GfK poll nds.
Only 12 percent expect the
Affordable Care Act
Obamacare to dismissive oppo-
nents to be repealed completely.
The law covering 30 million
uninsured, requiring virtually every
legal U.S. resident to carry health
insurance and forbidding insurers
from turning away the sick
remains as contentious as the day it
passed more than two years ago.
Theres still more than another year
before its major provisions go into
effect on Jan. 1, 2014.
Although the overhaul survived a
Supreme Court challenge in June,
the November election appears like-
ly to settle its fate. Republican Mitt
Romney vows to begin repealing it
on Day One while Obama pledges
to carry it out faithfully.
But the poll found that Americans
are converging on the idea that the
overhaul will be part of their lives,
although probably not down to its
last comma. They dont totally buy
what either candidate is saying.
People are sort of averaging out
the candidates positions, said
Harvard School of Public Health
professor Robert Blendon, who
tracks polling on health care issues.
Most see health law being implemented

ATHENS, Greece Europes
fragile nancial calm was shattered
Wednesday as investors worried that
violent anti-austerity protests in
Greece and Spains debt troubles
showed that the continent still can-
not contain its nancial crisis.
Police red tear gas Wednesday at
rioters hurling gasoline bombs and
chunks of marble during Greeces
largest anti-austerity demonstration
in six months. The protests were
part of a 24-hour general strike, the
latest test for Greeces nearly four-
month-old coalition government
and the new spending cuts it plans to
push through.
The brief but intense clashes by
several hundred rioters among the
60,000 people protesting in Athens
came a day after anti-austerity
protests rocked the Spanish capital.
In Madrid, thousands of angry
protesters again swarmed as close as
they could get Wednesday night to
Parliament, watched by a heavy
contingent of riot police. There was
no fresh violence, but the demon-
strators cut off trafc on one of the
citys major thoroughfares at the
height of the evening commute.
The protesters chanted for the
release of 34 people detained
Tuesday night in clashes that injured
64 others. They also demanded new
elections to oust Prime Minister
Mariano Rajoy and his conservative
government, which has imposed
cutbacks and tax hikes, deepening
the gloom in a country struggling
with recession and unemployment
of nearly 25 percent, the highest
among the 17 nations using the
common euro currency.
Spains central bank warned
Wednesday the countrys economy
continues to shrink signicantly,
sending the Spanish stock index
tumbling and its borrowing costs
rising.
Across Europe, stock markets fell
as well. Germanys DAX dropped 2
percent while the CAC-40 in France
fell 2.4 percent and Britains FTSE
100 slid 1.4 percent. The euro was
also hit, down a further 0.3 percent
at $1.2840.
Greek riots, Spanish marches shatter market

test results make up no more than 60
percent of the index rankings for
high schools starting in 2016. The
law maintains the current formula for
elementary schools and middle
schools, where test scores should
account for at least 60 percent of the
ranking.
The legislation requires the state
superintendent of public instruction
to examine other ways to measure
student achievement, such as subject
mastery, technical skills, and valid,
reliable and stable measures of pupil
preparedness for postsecondary edu-
cation and career.
For high school, the scores also
should factor in how many students
graduated in four, ve and six years,
which the superintendent should ana-
lyze for accuracy.
It also directs the state superintend-
ent to place more emphasis in the
calculation on science and social sci-
ence, which have little weight in the
current school-ranking system, and
measure the accuracy of reported
high school graduation rates.
Im pleased the governor agrees
that test scores alone are hardly a true
indicator of the success or failure of
our students, Steinberg said in a
news release. Life is not a bubble
test, and that system has failed our
kids.
The school ranking system, which
parents use to gauge school perform-
ance, compares schools with similar
student compositions based on
aggregated scores on student
achievement tests, including the high
school exit exam. The lowest-per-
forming schools are required to
improve their scores annually or face
state sanctions and possible takeover.
Brown, a Democrat, vetoed similar
legislation by Steinberg last year,
saying it was loaded with turgid
mandates and that the reforms were
better handled by local panels that
could visit schools, observe teachers,
interview students and examine their
work.
Such a system wouldnt produce
an API number, but it could improve
the quality of our schools, Brown
wrote then.
The new legislation says the super-
intendent may choose to develop a
program exactly like the one
described by Brown if there is
money set aside for it in the state
budget.
The governor did not provide a
statement to accompany
Wednesdays signing.
The previous bill would have
required that test scores account for
no more than 40 percent of the per-
formance index score.

Corruption of
moral or social doctrines
Editor,
The column by Dorothy Dimitre,
Media madness, in the Sept. 25 edi-
tion of the Daily Journal, hit a chord
with me. I had just finished reading
Why America failed the roots of
imperial decline by Morris Berman.
Dorothy, from her perspective as an
elder, points out what has been lost in
our society in the way of moral truths
and civility. Morris Berman goes fur-
ther in outlining the cunning business
mindset that he calls the hustler
mentality that has become the primary
driving force which contributes to
corrupting moral or social doctrines
of the past and helped make the coun-
try a model for other nations to emu-
late. Its an uncomfortable book to
read but is worth looking at his per-
spective on current events in our soci-
ety.

Sidewalk bicyclists
Editor,
Why isnt the Burlingame Police
Department issuing warning citations
to sidewalk bicyclists along California
Drive? Since 1941, Municipal Code
1476 has stated, It is unlawful for
any person to ride or operate a bicycle
on the sidewalk in any of the business
districts of the city and no bicycle
shall be operated on the sidewalk in
any of the residential districts when
and where the sidewalk is being used
by pedestrians.
Why doesnt the Burlingame City
Council, city manager and city attor-
ney hold the police and themselves
accountable to me as a claimant of
sidewalk safety and as a 29-year resi-
dent of this mixed business and resi-
dential corridor?
I would remind them all that the
Organizational Compass of 2003 was
designed to encourage and emulate
19 values and behaviors as a vital part
of the way city employees do business
and provide municipal services.

Music on the Square
Editor,
I went to see a Journey cover band
at Music on the Square a couple of
weeks ago. Years ago when I was
growing up, music was a very person-
al or even an emotional thing, but now
music is viewed much the same as
flossing ones teeth. Back to the
Journey band. When the band started,
the mix was about as musically pleas-
ing as a tax audit. As time went on, it
didnt get much better.
A few years ago, going to
Courthouse Square was a real joy
similar to listening to music when I
was a kid. I just learned now that
Redwood City paid more than
$60,000 for the right to control the
quality of the music that we listen to
at the square. They now own the
sound and stage.
I have done the number crunch and
the city will not turn a profit on that
$60,000 venture until 2051. All of this
would be justified if it would just
sound better than it did before they
got into the entertainment business,
but it doesnt not by any stretch of
the imagination. Whatever the cause
of the degradation of sound quality
(equipment or personnel), after three
years, it ought to be working right.
But it isnt. I spoke to two of the
Parks and Recreation staff and they
seemed pleasantly satisfied that it
sounded the way it did. Neither of
these two people were over the age of
30 (and I would hazard a guess not
two weeks out of Scooby Doo under-
wear).
Week after week it is like a blind
man with a machine gun, whether or
not these neophytes will get it even
close to sounding right. The city just
keeps loading and the Parks and
Recreation staff just keeps firing.

Letters to the editor
T
he city of Half Moon Bay cur-
rently pays about 10 percent of
its budget toward the repay-
ment of a bond that was needed to
acquire a piece of property to end a
land dispute that had gone on too long.
The Beachwood property saga ended
with the $18 million purchase that, with
interest, required a $30 million bond
which the city pays about $1 million
toward every year.
That payment puts quite a crimp in
the citys budget and its capital
improvement needs road resurfac-
ing, plans to expand its library and crit-
ical needs like ensuring the Main Street
Bridge is seismically safe. With that in
mind, the city is asking voters to pay
for a half-cent sales tax increase for
three years that aims to raise about
$870,000 annually. Though the money
cannot be earmarked for specic proj-
ects, the city will likely hold hearings
after the November vote to determine
the communitys priorities for the
money if Measure J is successful.
The city has been aggressive in cut-
ting its costs by contracting out services
such as police and parks and recreation
and is currently running a very lean
operation. The additional money would
provide a much-needed buffer until rev-
enue returns to higher levels, propo-
nents contend.
That may be true, but recent reports
indicate city tax revenue is on the rise
and the city recently enjoyed a prelimi-
nary judgment in which it will likely
receive $10 million in an insurance
claim related to the Beachwood devel-
opment. That is in addition to a $5 mil-
lion settlement in early 2008 with the
Association of Bay Area Government
PLAN for a different insurance cover-
age period. Those two amounts will go
a long way toward bridging the gap in
the citys nancial obligation for the
Beachwood property. The city is also
moving toward selling the property for
development, which will bring in addi-
tional revenue from the sale and from
whatever is allowed for the 24-acre site.
While there is an opportunity to pay
down the debt, and that should be the
citys primary focus, there is also an
opportunity to move forward on some
of the more pressing capital improve-
ment needs with this money.
Though the time frame for this tax
measure is modest, three years, this is
not the time to be burdening the popu-
lace with a new tax that has the possi-
bility of providing a disincentive for
visitors and their tourist dollars. The
city has been nancially responsible in
reducing staff and sharing services.
Revenue is climbing, albeit slowly. The
timing is not right for such a proposal
because individual families are still
struggling with the economic downturn
and the recent judgments provide the
city with much-needed wiggle room in
its budget. While the pull for additional
revenue is strong and the intent of the
city is valid, voters should say no to
Measure J.
No on Measure J
Want a voice? Vote
T
he irony wasnt lost. Inside the Board of
Supervisors chambers Tuesday morning, dozens
upon dozens of people railed at the elected offi-
cials over the planned new jail. The onslaught of anger
was peppered with threats, both veiled and not, to each
supervisors legacy and political future. Vote for the jail
and kiss your career goodbye, they said in essence. Some
called for recalls OK, maybe not so scary for District
Four Supervisor Rose Jacobs Gibson who is being termed
out this year while others stuck with warnings about
upcoming elections. Youre not representing us, they said.
We can and will replace
you. Furthermore, we
will defeat the proposed
half-cent sales tax. Take
that, jail advocates!
Outside the chambers
in the rest of the world,
community activists,
legislators and those
who just know the value
of democracy and public
participation put out the
rallying cry for people
to be able to make good
on the types of chal-
lenges laid bare for
county leaders. In case
you missed it, Tuesday
was declared National Voter Registration Day courtesy of
state Sen. Leland Yee, D-San Francisco/San Mateo. Yee
even made the process easier with an earlier bill creating
online registration and, just signed this week, a bill allow-
ing for same-day registration. In other words, no excuses.
On Tuesday, if the press release stack is any indication,
officials and organizations jumped on the bandwagon. The
California secretary of state reminded Californians to
check their registration or sign up if necessary. Groups
with official forms stopped shoppers heading into stores
for milk and socks. Would you like a side of democracy
with your groceries, maam? Even in the aforementioned
room at 400 County Government Center, clipboards
passed around to make sure that those with something to
say on any level of government arent just paying lip serv-
ice.
All in all, the day apparently kicked some into gear. The
Secretary of States Office reported roughly 110,000
Californians registered online in the first week. Not a bad
start at all. The question now is how many of those will
actually vote.
Take the June primary, for example. That election win-
nowed down the candidate pool to two for the District
Four seat replacing Jacobs Gibson, the supervisor who
drew particular ire from the anti-jail contingent because
they argue a strong majority of minority inmates hail from
the jurisdiction. Voter turnout in San Mateo County was
36.5 percent with 123,312 ballots cast out of the 337,702-
person pool a low number by any standard but espe-
cially when one considers that a presidential primary usu-
ally brings in about 56 percent, according to the local
elections office.
And while the presidential race is important, local elec-
tions are just as important if not more so. Cases in point:
The Board of Supervisors, the jail, taxes. Voters chose the
supervisors who in turn approved the new jail. By that
logic, voters do have a say in the future of the county.
Same goes for the half-cent sales tax its fate is in the
hands of voters, not just those who agree or disagree in
theory.
Those who dont bother to actually vote cant effect
change and they sure as heck dont earn the right to vent.
Californians have until Oct. 22 to register for the Nov. 6
election. Hopefully, the momentum of National Voter
Registration Day carries on. Secretary of State Debra
Bowen said in a prepared statement Tuesday that a com-
mon reason people dont register to vote is simply
because they were never asked. Consider this the ques-
tion.
The angry masses before the supervisors wanted them
to know that with every vote its time may be up. Lets
hope they, and all eligible people, remember to register
and actually follow through with a ballot before their
valid time to speak is up, too.
Register to vote online at RegisterToVote.ca.gov. or pick
up a paper application at many post offices, libraries,
Department of Motor Vehicles or other government
offices.

youre most vulnerable to sell-offs when
there are negative headlines like the

SAN FRANCISCO Yahoos new
chief nancial ofcer is getting a big
raise to join the struggling Internet com-
pany.
Ken Goldman, who will become
Yahoos CFO next month, is starting out
with an annual salary of $600,000 and
could earn a bonus of up to $540,000,
according to documents filed
Wednesday. He is also getting restricted
stock and stock options valued at $12
million.
The stock awards will gradually vest
over the next three to four years, and
could end up being worth more or less
than $12 million. That depends on how
Yahoos long-slumping stock fares
under a new management team led by
Marissa Mayer, who became the compa-
nys CEO two months ago.
The pay package represents a signi-
cant bump from Goldmans current job
as CFO of Fortinet Inc., a security soft-
ware maker based in Sunnyvale, Calif.,
less than ve miles from Yahoo Inc.s
headquarters in the same city.
Fortinet paid Goldman an annual
salary of $327,818, according to the
companys most recent compensation
disclosures six months ago. Goldman,
63, also was eligible for a bonus of about
$200,000 at Fortinet.

By Barry Wilner
NEW YORK (AP) So long, replacement
refs. The NFLs regular crews will be back on
the eld starting Thursday night.
After two days of marathon negotiations
and mounting frustration among coaches, play-
ers and fans the NFL and the referees union
announced at midnight Thursday that a tentative
agreement had been reached to end a lockout
that began in June.
Commissioner Roger
Goodell, who was at the
bargaining table Tuesday
and Wednesday, said the
regular ofcials would work
the Browns-Ravens game at
Baltimore.
The tentative eight-year
deal must be ratied by 51
percent of the unions 121
members. They plan to vote Friday and
Saturday in Dallas.
Welcome back REFS, Buffalo Bills run-
ning back C.J. Spiller tweeted shortly after the
news broke.
The replacements worked the rst three
weeks of games, triggering a wave of outrage
that threatened to disrupt the rest of the season.
After a missed call cost the Green Bay Packers
a win on a chaotic nal play at Seattle on
Monday night, the two sides really got serious.
We are glad to be getting back on the eld
for this weeks games, referees union presi-
dent Scott Green said.
The agreement hinged on working out pen-
sion and retirement benets for the ofcials,
who are part-time employees of the league. The
tentative pact calls for their salaries to increase
from an average of $149,000 a year in 2011 to
$173,000 in 2013, rising to $205,000 by 2019.

Menlo School volleyball coach Atlee
Hubbard scheduled a pretty rugged non-league
schedule for the Knights this year, knowing
that her team had a chance to do some damage
this season.
Wednesday night, however, marked the
Knights biggest challenge to date as they host-
ed defending Division II state champion
Presentation. While the Panthers are not the
same team that won the state title last year
they lost a number of key players to graduation
they are still among the best squads in the
Central Coast Section year in and year out.
There were some big matches (I scheduled)
in preseason and Presentation is one of them,
Hubbard said. I scheduled them because I
knew wed have a pretty good team.
Looks like Menlo might be in store for a spe-
cial year after dispatching Presentation in ve
games, 23-25, 25-11, 25-22, 22-25, 15-8.
Nothing came easy for Menlo (12-5 overall)
well, except for the rout in Game 2 but
in the end, the Knights had a little bit more
repower, kept their composure, and passed,
set and received serve just a little bit better
than the Panthers.
Our offense is really clicking, Hubbard
said. Our serving has been on re. Serving is
so important. If you let a team like
[Presentation] pass, theyre going to beat you.
It took a game before the Knights really
turned up the pressure on their service game.
The Panthers jumped out to a 6-1 lead in Game
1 and while Menlo did a good job of staying in
the game, the Knights never could quite get
over the hump. Despite getting eight kills from
Maddie Huber in Game 1, Presentation held on
for a 25-23 win.
We started off a little slow, trying to gure
out what our rhythm would be, Hubbard said.
Game 2, however, was a different story.
Behind strong serving from just about every-
one in the rotation, the Knights crushed the
Knight notch big win
F
ollowing the rst football game of the
NFL season, I said in this space that
the replacement referees would not
have an impact on the game. Boy was I way
off on that one. Over the last three weeks, the
quality of ofciating seems to have deteriorat-
ed to the point of the comical. It came to a
head this past Monday night when the sports
world was atwitter both guratively and
literally following the debacle that ended
the game with a
Seahawks touchdown
for a 14-12 Seattle win
over Green Bay.
Is it any coincidence
that the NFL and the
locked out ofcials are
now feverishly trying
to get a deal done to
get the regular refs
back on the eld?
Darren Rovell, a sports
business analyst for
ESPN, tweeted
Wednesday there were
59,000 tweets per minute skewering the
replacement refs, NFL commissioner Roger
Goodell, NFL owners and the NFL in general
following Monday nights ending. We already
knew social media was having an impact
around the world (Arab Spring, anyone?) and
now it seems to have impacted sports.
The simple fact is Monday nights game
was the straw that broke the camels back, the
seminal moment when fans said enough is
enough. Their cries had to have been heard
by Goodell. Even he had to face-palm him-
self watching that game. He had to say to
himself, This was my biggest fear. Weve
got to x this. Apparently he was ne with
the level of ineptness until it not only cost one
team a win, but cost a team in the most dra-
matic way possible on the last play of the
game.

ARLINGTON, Texas Yoenis Cespedes
had one of Oaklands two triples in the rst
inning and the Athletics jumped out to a quick
lead in a 9-3 victory at Texas on Wednesday
night to pull within three games of the AL
West-leading Rangers.
The Athletics, who had played ve consec-
utive one-run games, led 5-0 only eight bat-
ters into the game. They chased Martin Perez
(1-3) before the rookie left-hander got all the
way through the batting order.
Oakland has won two of three in the series
that wraps up with a day game Thursday.
After that, the As go home
for a three-game weekend
series against Seattle
before hosting the Rangers
for the nal three games of
the regular season next
week.
Stephen Drew had four
of Oaklands 16 hits,
including a double leading
off the game before scor-
ing on Cespedes triple
into the right-center gap.
The only Oakland starter without a hit was
No. 9 hitter Cliff Pennington. Even Josh
Reddick ended a career-long 0-for-30 slump
with singles in the seventh and ninth innings.
Rookie righty Jarrod Parker (12-8) won his
third consecutive decision over four starts. He
struck out eight in six innings, and his 109
pitches were his most since 111 on June 4,
when he threw eight scoreless innings and
allowed only one hit against the Rangers in
Oakland.
Oakland had a 2 1/2-game lead over the
Angels for the ALs second wild card. Los
Angeles was playing at home later
Wednesday night against Seattle.
The magic number remained at ve for the
two-time defending American League cham-
pion Rangers, who host the Angels for three
games this weekend.
Matt Harrison (17-10), the All-Star left-
hander, starts for Texas in the series nale,
when he will try to become the Rangers rst
18-game winner since Kenny Rogers in 2004.
He faces lefty Travis Blackley (5-3).
The Athletics set an AL record for striking
out the most in a season with their 11 against
six Texas pitchers. They have 1,333, nine
more than Tampa Bay had in 2007, and they
still have seven games left.

ALAMEDA The Oakland
Raiders made a move to bolster their
struggling pass rush on Wednesday by
signing proven defensive end Andre
Carter to a free-agent contract.
The Raiders (1-2) had brought
Carter in twice before for workouts in
training camp and earlier this season
before signing him to ll a glaring
need.
I think hell be instrumental, said
defensive tackle Richard Seymour,
who was picked one spot ahead of
Carter in the 2001 draft at sixth over-
all. Hes a proven guy in this league.
Obviously, it will take some times to
get his legs under him, but hes a guy
thats shown he can rush the passer
and I think that
will be essential
for us.
Carter has 76
sacks in 163
career games
over 11 seasons
in the NFL. He
was named to the
Pro Bowl for the
rst time last sea-
son after recording 10 sacks for the
New England Patriots but his season
was cut short by a quadriceps injury
that forced him to miss the nal two
games of the regular season and the
postseason.
Carter was credited with 51 quarter-
back pressures by Pro Football Focus
in 14 games for the Patriots last sea-
son. He tied a New England record
with four sacks in a game against the
New York Jets on Nov. 13.
But because of the injury, Carter
was still looking for a job this season.
Its always tough, he said. It def-
initely gives you a different perspec-
tive. Here I am trying to train hard and
work hard and just get better, and as
the season continued to progressed
and watching Sunday football on the
couch with my son ... I knew God had
a plan and I just kept on continuing to
be patient and in the end it worked out
well.
Carter is trying to get up to speed
with the playbook and his new team-
mates this week but said hed be ready
to play Sunday in Denver against
Peyton Manning and the Broncos if he
gets the call.
If I wasnt ready then I wouldnt be
here, he said.
Carter said on a scale of 1-to-10 that
he was physically at 100, but
acknowledged it would take some
time to get into football shape.
The Raiders are hoping it doesnt
take long because they are in dire need
of a proven pass rusher after having let
Kamerion Wimbley go in the offsea-
son in a cost-cutting move. Oakland
has just three sacks this season one
ahead of last-place Jacksonville as
their lack of a speed rusher on the out-
side has hurt them.
There were a few times where we
had a little something going in the
game last week, and (Ben)
Roethlisberger does a good job of
maneuvering in the pocket, coach
Dennis Allen said before the team
announced the move. But, obviously,
we got to try to do some things that get
a little bit more pressure on the quar-
terback. As we go throughout the sea-
son, were going to need that.
Carter also worked out for Arizona
and St. Louis before signing with the
Raiders. He has returned to his roots,
having starred in high school in San
Jose, playing college ball at California
and spending his rst seasons in the
NFL with the San Francisco 49ers.
Now after stops in Washington for
ve years and one year in New
England, Carter is back home with the
Bay Areas other team.
I had a lot of friends who said you
crossed over to the dark side, he said.
Everything comes full circle. Where
Im at in my career why not be back in
the Bay Area where it all started for
me.
Raiders bolster pass rush, sign DE Andre Carter
Andre Carter
BOARDMAN, Ohio Coach
Jim Harbaugh wants the San
Francisco 49ers to get focused,
avoid obstacles and get back to win-
ning.
Harbaugh refused to let a day-
long rain dampen plans to get the
offense untracked Wednesday. A
purposefully placed bus wouldnt
get in his way, either.
Still smarting from a 24-13 loss at
Minnesota on Sunday, Harbaugh
directed a morning walkthrough on
the rain-slickened asphalt of a hotel
parking lot. Then practice took
place in rain at their home-away-
from home, Stambaugh Stadium at
nearby Youngstown State
University.
Patrick Willis, Brandon Jacobs
and Ted Ginn returned from injuries
to work in full pads, though nose
tackle Isaac Sopoaga, nursing a left
knee injury, did not.
Harbaugh couldnt wait to work
on issues that kept the 49ers from a
3-0 start. He ignored a bus parked in
the middle of his walkthrough, then
had players slog through rain to cor-
rect mistakes.
I think when you come off a loss,
you want to get back to work and
make darn sure it doesnt happen
again, he said. Thats the mindset
we have every day, including today,
to work on that mindset in prepara-
tion for the game.
The 49ers moved practice to Ohio
this week in preparation for playing
the Jets at the Meadowlands on
Sunday.
A year ago, they came to the area
between road wins in Cincinnati and
Philadelphia. Harbaugh said then it
was a unique experience for a young
team to bond with its new coach.
Now in his second season and
after a trip to the NFC championship
game, Harbaugh doesnt want dis-
tractions derailing the same atmos-
phere from developing. It was busi-
ness as usual, with an extra helping
of hard work.
The challenge (is), see how
much you can get out of today as it
relates to preparation for the Jets
game, Harbaugh said. Dont know
that theres any rule that it has to be
exactly like it was when were back
in San Francisco or even similar.
Challenge is to see how much we
can get out of today.
Quarterback Alex Smith believes
the 49ers are more advanced at this
point than a year ago. He cautioned
that it wont automatically lead to an
eight-game winning streak and 13-3
nish like last season.

OAKLAND Mark Jackson isnt making
any playoff promises for the Golden State
Warriors this season.
Maybe its a lesson learned for the point
guard, preacher and boisterous broadcaster
turned NBA head coach. Or maybe hes tem-
pering expectations entering his second sea-
son considering, well, there actually are
expectations with a reshaped roster built
around rehabilitating cen-
ter Andrew Bogut and
point guard Stephen
Curry.
Im not going to say
it, Jackson said
Wednesday. Not because
I dont believe it. But ulti-
mately it comes to a point
where, enough of the talk-
ing, go out and do it.
That time is almost
here.
With training camp beginning next week,
Jackson still made it clear that not making the
postseason would be a major disappointment.
He also recognizes the season outlook and
perhaps his own future hinges largely on
the surgically repaired ankles of Bogut and
Curry, who have had repeated problems stay-
ing on the court throughout their young
careers.
Asked how condent he is both will return
to form and stay healthy this season, Jackson
quipped: I hope so. My family certainly
hopes so.
Same goes for Warriors fans who have long
waited for a winner.
For a franchise that has made the playoffs
once in the last 18 years, talking about the
postseason at any time might seem strange, let
alone before any exhibitions have been
played. Looking at the roster on paper, any-
way its easy to see why the Warriors dont
nd that goal so silly.
The Bogut-Curry combo, if healthy, would
be teamed with power forward David Lee,
second-year shooting guard Klay Thompson
and either Brandon Rush or seventh overall
pick Harrison Barnes of North Carolina at
small forward. Golden State is deeper than in
recent years, too, with Jarrett Jack, Carl
Landry and Richard Jefferson complementing
rookies Draymond Green and Festus Ezeli,
who both impressed enough during summer
league and offseason workouts to be consid-
ered rotation players.
Jackson also has had more time to prepare
this season than last, when the labor lockout
eliminated most of the offseason and training
camp not to mention limiting practice time
during the crammed 66-game schedule.
Injuries also decimated the roster, which has
been quickly reconstructed under new general
manager Bob Myers, and that has Jackson
more optimistic than anything after going 23-
43 last season.
What makes us better is not the timetable,
Jackson said. Its the talent.
Bogut, the 2005 No. 1 overall pick and best
center the franchise has had in at least a
decade, fractured his left ankle Jan. 25 with
Milwaukee and sat out the rest of the season
when he was acquired in a trade for guard
Monta Ellis. He isnt expected to be ready at
the start of training camp Tuesday, but
Jackson is hopeful Bogut will be in the start-
ing lineup for the regular-season opener at
Phoenix on Oct. 31.
Curry, who was medically cleared to resume
all basketball-related activities last week,
repeatedly sprained his surgically repaired
right ankle last season while playing only 26
games. The team said his most recent opera-
tion on April 25 was an exploratory proce-
dure that revealed a stable ankle with no
structural damage and consisted of cleaning
out loose debris and scar tissue.
Injuries aside, Jackson has been pleased
with the progress his team made over the sum-
mer.
He said the reason he made the bold playoff
prediction when he was hired last year was to
change the culture of a losing franchise that,
despite all its failures, is consistently among
the NBAs top-10 in attendance and whose
fans are among the most vocal in the sports
saturated Bay Area.
Warriors coach has high
expectations,not promises

SAN FRANCISCO Matt Cain pitched
seven innings and had two hits and an RBI to
lead the San Francisco Giants to a 6-0 win over
the Arizona Diamondbacks on Wednesday night.
Brandon Belt added three hits, Pablo Sandoval
singled twice and drove in two runs, and Marco
Scutaro extended his career-best hitting streak to
14 games while helping Cain to his career-best
16th win.
Its San Franciscos rst victory since clinch-
ing the NL West division for the second time in
three years.
The Giants were the fth NL team to pitch a
shutout Wednesday. The last time there were at
least ve shutouts in the same league on the same
day was Sept. 18, 2003, in the NL, according to
STATS LLC.
Miguel Montero and Gerardo Parra had two
hits apiece for Arizona, which only managed to
get one runner past second base while losing for
just the third time in 10 games.
Cain (16-5) looked sharp in his next-to-last
start in the regular season. The right-hander scat-
tered four hits and had six strikeouts, two in the
seventh when he pitched out of two-on, no-outs
situation.
It was exactly the type of outing San Francisco
needed from its ace after two-time NL Cy Young
Award winner Tim Lincecum was knocked
around by the Diamondbacks a day earlier.
Cain, who hasnt lost since Aug. 6, lowered his
ERA at AT&T Park to 2.03. He did it despite
three Giants errors on a sloppy night defensively
for both teams.

Panthers. Presentation struggled with its serve
receive and did everything it could to just keep
the ball off the oor. The Knights took advan-
tage, nishing with 19 kills and just two errors
in the set. Menlo led 3-2 before going on a 5-
1 run to take control. Following a Presentation
kill that made the score 9-4, the Knights put
the game away by winning nine straight
points for an 18-4 advantage. The Panthers
made a small run late, but Menlo nished
Game 2 by winning the nal four points.
The Knights kept that momentum going in
Game 3, but the Panthers also regrouped and
made Menlo work. The Panthers won four
straight points late in the game, cutting a 17-
11 decit to just two points, but a serve into
the net gave the Knights a sideout. Huber,
who nished the match with 25 kills, had
back-to-back put aways to push the Knights
advantage to ve, 20-15 and then outlasted the
Panthers down the stretch.
Menlo had a chance to put the Panthers
away in four games, but Presentation clawed
its way to a win in Game 4, which stayed
close throughout. The Panthers eventually
built a 16-13 lead, but the Knights went on a
5-0 run to take an 18-16 advantage. The
Panthers responded with a run of their own to
tie the game at 20 and it then became a race to
see which team could win ve points rst. A
Presentation hitting error gave Menlo a 21-20
lead, but the Panthers came back with four
unanswered points to take a 24-21 lead before
nishing out the game and forcing a fth and
deciding set.
The Knights, however, treated Game 5 like
Game 2. They jumped out to a big lead early
and were never seriously threatened, building
a 7-1 lead and then cruising to the victory.
It was going to be a good matchup. I know
Pres has a lot of power and it forced us to
think about our defense, Hubbard said. It
was nice to see our team come together, espe-
cially after Emma Thygesen went out (with an
ankle injury), and stay composed. Finishing
matches is something weve been working
on.
The Knights were led Hubers 25 kills and
Maddy Frappier, who finished with 18.
Hubbard said the two have traded off this sea-
son in leading the team and when they are
both involved in the offense, the Knights are a
tough team to beat.
They both are really nice hitters, Hubbard
said. It makes it nice when theyre both on
(top of their game on) the same night.
MENLO
By Doug Ferguson
MEDINAH, Ill. Rory McIlroy has gone
from being a rookie in the Ryder Cup to a
marked man at Medinah.
McIlroy is the rst European in nearly 20
years to go into the Ryder Cup as the No. 1
player in the world, although the star power of
this 23-year-old from Northern Ireland is
dened by much more than a computer ranking.
He already has won two majors, with a record
score in the U.S. Open last year at
Congressional and a record margin at the PGA
Championship last month at Kiawah Island.
His four wins this year are the most of anyone
in the world, all against the strongest elds.
So it was no surprise when Jim Furyk referred
to Boy Wonder as the present day Tiger
Woods and a marked man at this Ryder Cup.
Thats the role Woods played for so many years
in these matches when he dominated golf. There
was a feeling among Europeans that beating
Woods was worth more than one point because
of the emotional lift it gave the rest of the team.
McIlroy doesnt see it that way.
This week Im not the No. 1 player in the
world, he said Wednesday. Im one person in
a 12-man team, and thats
it. Its a team effort. Theres
12 guys all striving toward
the same goal. Im just part
of that.
But even in this team
competition, its easy to get
wrapped in a single star, as
it was for Woods.
Theres only one way to
keep score in the Ryder
Cup, though its tempting to make individuals
accountable. Even when Woods was at his best,
he still could only deliver a maximum of ve
points if he played every match. He never came
close, and didnt even produce a winning record
until his fth Ryder Cup.
I dont have a number. I dont have a total,
McIlroy said. I think with the U.S. playing
here at home, I think they are the favorites. Its
a very strong team. So we know we have got to
go out there and play very, very well to have a
chance. So if I play on Friday morning, I just
want to get my point and then take it from
there.
Wednesday brought the Ryder Cup one day
closer to the start of matches that are growing in
anticipation. Both teams look strong on paper,
with all 24 players among the top 35 in the
world. The Americans are loaded with experi-
ence behind Woods, Furyk and Phil Mickelson.
Europe has only one Ryder Cup rookie, Nicolas
Colsaerts, and has the experience when it comes
to winning. It has captured the cup six of the last
eight times.
And while captains Davis Love III and Jose
Maria Olazabal have preached civility and
respect throughout the week, leave it to Ian
Poulter to set the record straight on how the
intensity can change when the rst tee shot is
struck Friday morning.
Its not that we dont like each other, the
Englishman said. We are all good friends, both
sides of the pond. But theres something about
Ryder Cup which kind of intrigues me, how you
can be great mates with somebody, but boy, do
you want to kill them in Ryder Cup.
Poulter is not alone. Among the four
American rookies is Brandt Snedeker, coming
off an $11.44 million payday for winning the
Tour Championship and the FedEx Cup.
Im very, very competitive, Snedeker said.
People dont get that, because Im polite. But I
tee it up on Friday here tee it up against any-
body Im going to try to beat their brains in
as bad as I can.
Love brought the rst dose of tears to
Medinah when talking about the time spent
Tuesday night at a team dinner, when he
showed a video of past captains and spoke of
the camaraderie in the team room. Then, he
dressed his team in bright red pants for a prac-
tice session of foursomes, keeping together the
same partnerships he had the previous day.
Olazabal mixed up his team ever so slightly,
with Luke Donald and Sergio Garcia together.
They are 4-0 in foursomes.
Both teams played only nine holes, trying to
conserve energy for the most dynamic three
days in golf. Even for such a short practice ses-
sions, fans poured into Medinah and set a tone
for the noise level, chanting, USA! USA! just
for players leaving the practice range.
McIlroy, for all his ability, is so unfailingly
polite and respectful that everyone likes him.
Woods calls him such a great kid. The gallery
adores him. Perhaps for the rst time in his
career, he might not get a lot of love from the
other side of the ropes.
I expect it to be loud. I expect them to cheer
for them, McIlroy said. Hopefully, I wont get
heckled, but if I do, then youve just got to stay
calm and be focused on the golf and just get on
with it.
McIlroy the marked man of this Ryder Cup

Under the proposed deal, the current dened
benet pension plan will remain in place for
current ofcials through the 2016 season or
until the ofcial earns 20 years service. The
dened benet plan will then be frozen.
Retirement benets will be provided for new
hires, and for all ofcials beginning in 2017,
through a dened contribution arrangement.
The annual league contribution made on behalf
of each game ofcial will begin with an aver-
age of more than $18,000 per ofcial and
increase to more than $23,000 per ofcial in
2019.
Beginning with the 2013 season, the NFL
will have the option of hiring a number of of-
cials on a full-time basis to work year round,
including on the eld. The NFL will have the
option to retain additional ofcials for training
and development purposes, and may assign
those additional ofcials to work NFL games.
The number of additional ofcials will be
determined by the NFL.
As you know, this has to be ratied and we
know very little about it, but were excited to be
back. And ready, referee Ed Hochuli told The
Associated Press in a telephone interview.
And I think thats the most important message
that were ready.
Replacement refs arent new to the NFL.
They worked the rst week of games in 2001
before a deal was reached. But those ofcials
came from the highest level of college football;
the current replacements do not. Their ability to
call fast-moving NFL games drew mounting
criticism through Week 3, climaxing last week-
end, when ESPN analyst Jon Gruden called
their work tragic and comical.
Those comments came during Monday
Night Football, with Seattle beating Green
Bay 14-12 on a desperation pass into the end
zone on the nal play. Packers safety M.D.
Jennings had both hands on the ball in the end
zone, and when he fell to the ground in a
scrum, both Jennings and Seahawks receiver
Golden Tate had their arms on the ball.
The closest ofcial to the play, at the back of
the end zone, signaled for the clock to stop,
while another ofcial at the sideline ran in and
then signaled touchdown.
The NFL said in a statement Tuesday that the
touchdown pass should not have been over-
turned but acknowledged Tate should have
been called for offensive pass interference
before the catch. The league also said there was
no indisputable evidence to reverse the call
made on the eld.
That drew even louder howls of disbelief.
Some coaches, including Miamis Joe Philbin
and Cincinnatis Marvin Lewis, tried to restore
some calm by instructing players not to speak
publicly on the issue.
Players were in no mood for apologies from
anyone.
Ill probably get in trouble for this, but you
have to have competent people, Carolina
receiver Steve Smith said. And if youre
incompetent, get them out of there.
NFL
I feel kind of bad for the replacement of-
cials. These guys do know the game. They have
been football referees for many years. But none
of them were prepared for the harsh spotlight
brought on by working with arguably the
biggest sporting entity in the world.
They had to know they were in for a world of
scrutiny, but I can understand not wanting to
pass up the kind of money NFL ofcials make.
I asked a local football referee, before the sea-
son started, if he would go if he had gotten the
call. He said he would.
I wonder if he would have the same response
now?
On the other hand, these scabs, as some are
calling them, went into this with eyes wide
open. You reap what you sow. What they were
sowing were constant conferences on the sim-
plest of calls and it went downhill from there.
While a lot of the blame falls on the NFL for
not working hard enough to make a deal with
the regular refs, I also put a lot of onus on the
ofcials. One of the big sticking points was
NFL ofcials wanted a better pension plan.
Pension plan? For what? For the three hours
of work they put in on game day? I know of-
cials spend a lot of hours during the week going
over video of games, dissecting and critiquing
the games they worked, but come on. Most of
these guys are already nancially secure thanks
to their day jobs. Now they want the NFL to
set them up for life after they retire from the
NFL? Please. These guys already earn pretty
good money ofciating in the NFL. They need
more after theyre done with the game? The
NFL barely takes care of retired players and
now ofcials want more? Sorry. No sympathy
here.
But weve seen what the results are when the
regular refs arent working games. At this point,
Im sure most football fans would agree the
NFL should give the regular refs whatever they
want. The NFL is a multi-billion dollar industry.
Would giving ofcials a few more million hurt
the bottom line?

Menlo School announced last week the hiring
of three new coaches. Marc Kerrest takes over
the boys varsity soccer team, Jason Orlando
will lead the varsity boys lacrosse squad, while
Glenn Simms is the new softball coach.
All three have extensive coaching resumes
and have experienced success playing and
coaching at several levels.
Kerrest, a native of France, guided the Menlo
girls frosh-soph soccer team to a 14-1-3 record
last season. He has played for several semi-pro
teams in both the Bay Area and New York. He
holds D and C coaching badges.
Orlando played lacrosse at Duke and was a
member of the 2010 national championship
team and made the NCAA seminals three
times during his college career. He began his
coaching career while at Duke and has spent the
last several summers coaching with All-West
Lacrosse, which helped develop lacrosse in
Northern California.
Simms has been a xture in the Menlo and
Peninsula coaching scene for a long time. He
has coached various sports at Menlo for the 15
years, including frosh-soph football, freshman
basketball and volleyball as well as a varsity
baseball assistant for the last several years. He
has also spent several years on the club sports
circuit. He currently coaches club basketball
and softball.

three consecutive singles. The last was Josh
Donaldsons grounder up the middle that then
rolled under the glove of center elder Josh
Hamilton for a two-base error, making it 4-0.
Derek Norris tripled to left-center on a liner
Hamilton appeared to misplay and let get over his
head.
A night after Yu Darvish was scratched from
his scheduled start because of neck stiffness, and
Scott Feldman and ve other relievers were need-
ed in a 10-inning loss, the Rangers were already
back in their bullpen before the end of the rst
inning.
Wilmer Font, the third Texas pitcher, walked
the only two batters he faced to start the third
before Drews two-run single made it 7-3. Moss
doubled and scored on a single by Norris an
inning later.
Parker walked leadoff hitter Ian Kinsler before
Elvis Andrus doubled off the left-center eld wall.
Michael Young and David Murphy had consecu-
tive singles to start the second, scoring on a eld-
ers choice grounder and a sacrice y by Andrus
that made it 5-3.
Chris Carters strikeout in the second inning
was the third of the game for the As, and pushed
them past the 2007 Rays. Oakland already is well
past its previous franchise mark of 1,226 strike-
outs in 2008.
Carter was the second of three consecutive bat-
ters who struck out against Roy Oswalt. Yoshinori
Tateyama struck out four in 2 1-3 innings, and
was the only Rangers pitcher who didnt allow a
base runner.

Fall is the best time to prepare lawns for the
next growing season by mowing, raking, aer-
ating and fertilizing. The game plan changes,
though, if drought-stressed grass has been dor-
mant for a long time. In that case, preparation
escalates into repair.
You need to determine if the grass is dead,
said Dave Minner, an extension turf-grass spe-
cialist with Iowa State University at Ames.
Then youll need to renovate with re-seeding
to get it going again.
Ignoring dead or damaged patches in your
turf will only cost more in the end, Minner
said.
Dead areas of the lawn that are not repaired
this fall will likely be invaded by weeds next
summer, he said.
The goal is to get new grass established
before winter sets in. Plant early, Minner
said. Get the leaves up and mow once or
twice. Growth should occur three to four
weeks after planting.
Its difcult to distinguish dead from dor-
mant grass, said Mark Schmidt, principal sci-
entist at John Deere. They both look bad.
When you get plentiful rainfall or cooler
weather, does it bounce back? Look at the
crown the base of the turf plant and you
should see some green color there. If you
dont see any green, its likely dead or dying.
The hot, late-summer sun typically pushes
many lawns into dormancy. The grass turns
brown after shutting down its growth to store
energy. That condition persists only until the
cool autumn rains arrive a month or so later.
The moisture greens things up again, opening
the way for end-of-season revitalization.
But this has not been a typical year. Nearly
79 percent of the contiguous United States had
experienced some degree of drought by Sept.
11, according to a U.S. Drought Monitor
update.
Dormant plants left unaided during an
extended drought will die.
Heres how to deal with stressed lawns to
help them weather another dry season:
Be as gentle as you can, Schmidt said
about drought-damaged grass. Dont douse it
with a lot of water right away or dump a load
of fertilizer on it.
Ease off the mowing with a higher turf cut.
Continue watering to promote grass recovery
if local restrictions allow.
Rake up leaves as they fall. Leaves can
leave a wet mat and block so much light that
they inhibit turf growth, Schmidt said. Pick
them up as early as you can so the grass can
get enough energy and sunlight to build on for
the next season.
There is little to gain from applying fertil-
izer to brittle, dry lawns, said Kurt Bland,
president of Bland Landscaping Co. in Apex,
N.C., and a spokesman for the Professional
Landcare Network. Its just a waste of prod-
uct, he said.
Care for grass now
or replace it later
By Lisa A. Fram
When the lazy days of summer give way to
hectic fall schedules, there is nothing like
dashing in from the cold and being enveloped
by a home lled with delicious smells.
These days, there are endless ways to add a
special scent to your home. Home fragrance
products have exploded into a $5 billion
industry, with candles, diffusers, room sprays
and oils offered everyplace from drug stores to
high-end retailers. There are many use-what-
you-have, do-it-yourself options as well.
The idea is to create an inviting, comforting
and calming environment, whether youre
having 20 people for a sit-down dinner or sim-
ply hanging out on the couch for the evening.
This is a time when people are spending
more time at home, and they want that cozy,
holiday, warm feeling, and maybe you want
that even when youre not entertaining you
want it on a Tuesday night when youre watch-
ing TV, said Jessica Romm, lifestyles editor
at Martha Stewart Living.
Fragrance is a really nice way to do that.
Once comprised mostly of candles and pot-
pourri, the home fragrance market took off in
the mid- to late 1990s, and retail sales in the
United States hit a high of $5.3 billion in
2011, according to Karen Doskow, industry
manager for consumer products at Kline and
Co., a market research company in
Parsippany, N.J. Sales last year were up 4 per-
cent over 2010, she said.
Todays offerings include candles, room
sprays, reed and plug-in diffusers, wax melts,
essential oils, and old standards like drawer
liners and sachets. Many products now offer a
more sophisticated scent and theyre more
decorative as well, Doskow said.
Just as there are scores of scents to choose
from (Yankee Candle has about 200 candle
fragrances), the prices vary greatly. It can
range from a Renuzit adjustable (air freshen-
er) for 99 cents up to a Jo Malone scented can-
dle thats in excess of $100, Doskow said.
In fact, Jo Malones luxury candle offers
230 hours of burn time and sells for $425,
while a large Yankee Candle that offers up to
150 hours of scent costs $27.99. Crabtree &
Evelyn has scented sprays for $19, while
French perfumer Frederic Malles perfume
gun spray sells for $145.
Whatever your budget, try to capture the
natural smells of the season in a simple and
minimal way, Romm says. She mentions mas-
culine scents like wood and leather, and the
smells of seasonal fruits and vegetables, such
as pumpkin, apple, pear and squash.
Youd think about meals that youre cook-
ing or things you would have around fruits
of the season or spices you might use, Romm
said. Our philosophy in terms of home fra-
grance is to not battle or compete with what
you would naturally have in your home during
the fall.
As winter arrives, a fresh Christmas tree is
great, Romm says, but without one, you can
introduce the smell of pine, or eucalyptus, and
spices like clove and cinnamon.
A good way to carry fragrance through your
home is to use multiple products at once, says
Hope Margala Klein, executive vice president
for brand, design and innovation at Yankee
Candle.
We recommend a layered approach, with
the candle being the focus, she said.
About an hour before guests arrive, a host
might light a candle or a no-ame alterna-
tive if kids or pets are an issue in each of
the major entertaining spaces, such as the
kitchen, dining room and great room, and
accent those with diffusers. By the time
guests get here, the house smells amazing,
Klein said.
Dont forget to add a glow to the bathroom,
where you may also want to display a can of
room spray for a concentrated burst of fra-
grance if needed, she recommends.
The amount of scent you should use
depends on the size of your home.
People who have enormous rooms would
probably need more, Klein said. Or if youre
living in a small apartment in New York City,
you could probably do one candle for the
whole place. You dont want it to overpower
folks.
One scent can be used throughout the home
for an intense smell, or you can combine
scents. People will create their own recipes
for what they think is great, Klein said.
Romm is partial to DIY home fragrance,
like setting a pot of apple cider with cinnamon
or cloves to simmer on the stove, displaying a
pretty bowl of cinnamon sticks, or drying
sliced apples on parchment paper in the oven
on low heat.

By Melissa Rayworth
Summer travel leaves many of us with
memories of ocean sunsets or foreign street
scenes or other only-on-vacation sights. Now
that summer is over, how can we hold onto
some of that beauty and bring it into our living
spaces?
The weeks after a trip can be the perfect
time to make small but powerful changes to
your home. I love what traveling does to peo-
ples imaginations and to their creativity, says
Los Angeles-based interior designer Betsy
Burnham.
With minimal effort and expense, she says,
you can live year-round with a bit of the charm
and feeling of your favorite travel destina-
tions. You dont have to redecorate. All you
have to do is kind of pinpoint what it is that
evokes the sensation of still being there.
Look back through your photos and just
think about the sense of place, she says. It
can be as simple as a jar of shells that appears
in your guest bathroom, or as dramatic as
repainting a room.
Here Burnham and interior designers Kyle
Schuneman (author of The First Apartment
Book: Cool Design For Small Spaces, due
out Aug. 28 from Clarkson Potter) and Brian
Patrick Flynn, founder of decordemon.com, to
share advice on bringing your travels into your
home.
COLOR PALETTE
When people get stumped on colors or dec-
orating ideas for a room they spend a lot of
time in, the rst thing Ill do is ask them to
think of a time and place that they went to that
really made them happy, says Flynn.
For one client, he repainted a bathroom the
exact shade of robins egg blue that was used
throughout a hotel where the couple stayed
during a memorable anniversary trip. Every
time she thinks of that color, it brings her back
to that time before they had kids and got busy
with their careers, Flynn explains.
Another client, living in Los Angeles, want-
ed to be reminded of his sun-drenched
Australian home. In his breakfast nook, we
went with pure, bold, almost radiation yel-
low, Flynn says. It always feels sunny and
reminds him of how it feels to be in Australia.
BEGIN A COLLECTION
Schuneman suggests picking up similar
items from different places to create a collec-
tion that will grow with each vacation.
Whether it be something free, like ticket
stubs from everywhere youve been to togeth-
er, or pottery that you can display together, he
says, incorporating these memories are what
good design is all about.
I think creating a collection in your home
from your travels is such an important part of
design, says Schuneman. I actually have a
chapter in my book called The Collector, as I
think those collections are what are so impor-
tant to making a house a home.
Burnham agrees: On her familys rst trip to
Paris, her children bought inexpensive Eiffel
Tower statues sold on street corners. Its so
corny when youre there, she says. But if you
gather similar items during and after a trip and
display them together, it becomes a design
statement and conversation piece. Her fami-
lys Eiffel Tower collection has grown over the
years, and all of a sudden weve got this kind
of funky collection.
LOCALLY GROWN ITEMS
Flynn urges travelers to buy original, local
art. Whether it depicts your destination or just
captures the areas sensibility, the work of
local painters and artisans can commemorate
your trip and add beauty to your home.
Local art is often extremely affordable,
Flynn says, and its a permanent story sitting
on your walls. Youre lling the walls and
telling a story about your vacation.
Along with appreciating artistic beauty, also
keep natural beauty in mind: Burnham sug-
gests taking note of the plants and owers you
saw during your summer travel. If the climate
is at all similar, try to use the same or similar
plants in your own yard. Maybe its a topiary
in a pot, something European, she says, or
beach grass that evokes a sleepy seaside town
you loved visiting.
FRESH USE OF PHOTOS
When you return with photos from your
trip, skip traditional frames in favor of some-
thing more creative.
A great idea for displaying photos is taking
some of your favorites and nding a rustic
slab of wood or maybe a sleek piece of metal,
Schuneman says, and decoupaging the photos
in a random pattern. For little or no money,
you have a cool art piece that will forever be a
memory board and can be customized to just
your taste and the trips feeling.
Choose the material based on the vibe of
your destination perhaps mount camping
photos on unnished wood or photos from an
urban destination on metal.
Another option is choosing a more artistic-
feeling photo maybe a landscape or a
close-up shot and having it blown up on
canvas. Canvas On Demand is one of my
favorite sources for this and their quality is
great, Schuneman says.
Bringing your summer travels home
If you gather similar items during and after a trip and display them together, it becomes a
design statement and conversation piece.

The girls parents, who the Daily
Journal will not name to protect the iden-
tity of the girl, were emotional but put
forward ideas for more security on cam-
pus like requiring badges to get into
classrooms or offering better identica-
tion for children.
The mom said the situation could have
been worse.
Superintendent Cynthia Simms agreed
the situation was scary. She added that
everyone involved children, employ-
ees and parents did what they should
have done. Children got away from a
scary situation, informed an adult and the
adult contacted police.
Deputy Police Chief Mike Callagy
explained that a few problems came up
on Friday. First, Mrozek is accused of
harassing two girls and offering alcohol
to 12-year-old boys at Bayside STEM
Academy on Friday and was also report-
edly escorted from the grounds of
Horrall Elementary School by an admin-
istrator who found his presence suspi-
cious. Then, Mrozek is believed to have
gone to Parkside.
Authorities say Mrozek groped the girl
and covered her mouth with his hand
before carting her off campus just before
2:45 p.m. Sept. 21. A short distance
away, the girl escaped by kicking her
attacker and running back to the school
where she reported the incident, accord-
ing to San Mateo police.
While parents were happy that Mrozek
was identied and arrested swiftly, they
had numerous concerns and ideas as a
result of the situation. For example,
many parents questioned why all schools
within the district were not made aware
of the situation to be on high alert from
the rst event.
Simms said the events happened
quickly. Callagy added that police were
on school campuses and parks quickly
looking for the suspect.
Gabriel Gudino, parent of a 9-year-old
boy, requested better notication of par-
ents when something of concern hap-
pens.
I get an alert on my phone if my son
is absent, he said, asking why some-
thing like that couldnt be offered in this
situation.
Parents were notied by either email,
phone or text depending on the informa-
tion provided to the school. Releasing the
correct information in a timely manner
and in both English and Spanish took
time, explained Molly Barton, assistant
superintendent of student services.
Parents quickly responded that they had
not received the updates in the way it had
been described. Barton said the district
would look into that and asked parents to
update contact information to be sure
what the district has is current.
Sonia Cole, who has a rst grader,
wanted to be sure the school was really
safe. She suggested adding a doorbell or
camera for those trying to enter the ofce
to sign in before entering the campus.
Her suggestion was echoed by other par-
ents.
Fences are currently being constructed
around the school where there are gaps a
person could enter, said Simms. In addi-
tion, previously approved bond money
allows for the purchase of security cam-
eras on school campuses. The board
introduced rules for using those cameras
at its meeting Thursday. Simms wrote
down other ideas from parents like offer-
ing self defense courses for students,
teaching parents how to identify poten-
tially dangerous situations, giving chil-
dren whistles to wear in case of an emer-
gency, and rotating lunches to create a
lower student to adult ratio during times
when children are out of the classroom.
Mrozek, who was arrested Saturday,
was in court Tuesday but did not enter a
plea. The San Francisco man asked for a
court-appointed attorney and was
ordered back to court Oct. 2 to identify
his lawyer and enter a plea, said District
Attorney Steve Wagstaffe. He faces eight
charges including kidnapping, molesta-
tion and misdemeanor counts of trespass-
ing on school grounds, child annoyance
and offering alcohol to a minor. If found
guilty on all charges, Wagstaffe said
Mrozek could face 15 years to life as
well as a requirement to register as a sex
offender.
He remains in custody without bail.
Anyone with information about Mrozek
or the incidents is asked to notify San
Mateo police at 533-7700.

an email. We will be able to share more
information about the agreement once it
is nalized by CNA members.
Nurses also praised the deal.
From the beginning, we were pre-
sented with 30 takeaways and patient-
protection removals, said Sharon Tobin,
a registered nurse at the intensive care
unit at the Burlingame campus.
The nurses held their rst work stop-
page for a day last September and then
were locked out by Sutter the next four
days, said Tobin, a 25-year nurse.
The ght was not about money, she
said, but rather for respect for nurses and
the patients they serve.
The nurses came together to stand up
for our community, she told the Daily
Journal.
Another nurse at Mills-Peninsula,
Genel Morgan, called the new contract a
great victory.
We prevailed with our solidarity and
willingness to ght for our practice and
our patients, Morgan wrote in a state-
ment.
Mills-Peninsula nurses were pleased
to see administrators abandon a propos-
al which would have forced nurses who
are sick for more than a week to utilize a
short-term disability program that, when
combined with state-funded disability,
would provide only a fraction of a
nurses salary, according to the CNA.
Sick leave and a slight variation of the
short-term disability proposal have been
key sticking points at other Sutter hospi-
tals, especially Alta Bates Summit
Medical Center in the East Bay, accord-
ing to the CNA.
Among the many other cuts dropped
by Mills-Peninsula management were
demands for a number of reductions that
affect nurse compensation, limits in time
off for medical and pregnancy leaves
and limiting staff nurse participation on
hospital committees, according to the
CNA.
Nurses cited advancements regarding
processing of issues under the contracts
grievance procedure, greater staffing
flexibility and improved language to
enhance stafng based on patient needs.
During lengthy negotiations, Sutter
Health ofcials said full-time nurses are
given up to 40 paid days off for vacation,
sick days and other personal uses. On
average, full-time registered nurses earn
more than $130,000 annually with the
option of choosing either 100 percent
employer-paid benefits or low-cost
health benets with an employer-paid
pension plan, Sutter ofcials said during
negotiations.
The concessions Sutter sought includ-
ed paying thousands of dollars more
annually in out-of-pocket medical
expenses and restrictions on doctor
choices, reduced benets for employees
working less than 30 hours a week,
reduced maternity leave and disciplining
nurses who dont meet arbitrary patient
satisfaction goals based on budget pri-
orities, according to the CNA.
