The San Mateo County
district attorneys request
that a judge set an execu-
tion date for a man con-
victed in the torture mur-
der of a young graduate
student 27 years
ago was delayed yesterday until after
the Nov. 6 election in which
California voters will decide if the
death penalty will stand.
Judge Craig Parson was scheduled
Friday to hear prosecutors and
Robert Green Fairbanks state-
appointed defender argue whether a
date should be set now even though
executions have essentially been on
hold for years while the courts wran-
gle with the question of cruel and
unusual punishment.
A court has ruled the states previ-
ous use of a three-drug cocktail could
not continue and a judge in a different
case also declined to set an execution
date for a Death Row inmate despite
that prosecutor maintaining a single
drug would bypass the concern.
A similar argument was anticipat-
ed by prosecutor Joe Cannon on
behalf of the San Mateo County
District Attorneys Ofce. On
Tuesday, however, the defense asked
to push back the hearing and Cannon
did not oppose the request.
The hearing was reset for Nov. 16
at which time the question may be
moot.
California voters are faced with
Proposition 34 which would prohibit
the death penalty and commute the
sentences of all Californias current

Sandovals three HRs lead Giants to 8-3 rompin opener
By Ben Walker
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO With three mighty
swings, Pablo Sandoval put the San
Francisco Giants ahead in this World Series
and put himself in a class with Mr. October.
Sandoval hit three home runs and joined
Reggie Jackson, Babe Ruth and Albert
Pujols as the only sluggers to do it in the
Series, and the Giants jolted Justin Verlander
the Detroit Tigers 8-3 on Wednesday night in
Game 1.
A rollicking AT&T Park crowd a sea of black
and orange outts roared as Sandoval connected in
his rst three at-bats. Popular in the Bay Area as the
Kung Fu Panda for his roly-poly shape, he went 4 for 4
and drove in four runs. A Giant panda for sure.
Verlander, the reigning Cy Young winner so dominant
in this postseason, looked uncomfortable from the get-
go and constantly pawed at the mound.
The nal score raised a nagging question for manag-
er Jim Leyland and his favored Tigers: Did too much
rest after a playoff sweep of the Yankees mean too
much rust?
Tagged by Sandoval for a solo shot in the rst inning,
Verlander could only mouth Wow! after the Giants star

School bus, truck
crash without drivers
BEAVER FALLS, Pa. Police dont
plan to cite the drivers of a truck and
school bus which crashed in western
Pennsylvania.
But only because neither vehicle had a
driver when they wrecked.
Police in Patterson Township tell the
Beaver County Times the incident hap-
pened just before 10 a.m. Tuesday when
the parked bus began to roll down a hill.
Police arent sure why that happened,
because the driver had engaged the park-
ing brake.
The bus rear-ended a parked truck,
which also began rolling down the hill
alongside the bus, until the truck ipped
onto its side. The bus continued on,
shearing off one utility pole and hitting
another before rolling to a stop a few
feet from the porch of a home.
Nobody was hurt.
Patterson Township is about 30 miles
northwest of Pittsburgh.

A Foster City attorney previously disci-
plined for misconduct is facing disbarment for
reportedly misappropriating thousands of dol-
lars from her son while representing him in
several civil matters.
Elizabeth M. Barnson Karnazes was found
culpable of 10 of 17 charged counts of profes-
sional misconduct connected to representation
of her son, according to the California Bar
Associations recommendation she be prohib-
ited from practicing law.
Karnazes, who was admitted to the state Bar
in 1985, represented her now-25 year-old son
in several lawsuits that ended with nancial
settlements.
The Bar found Karnazes failed to keep
records of her sons money, endorsed his
checks without consent, used his trust account
for her personal use and failed to maintain his
money. The account should have held more
than $157,000 for her son but instead the bal-
ance fell below $10,000 and she refused to
give him any of his own funds for more than
two years. Karnazes also tried having herself
appointed as her sons conservator while still
acting as his attorney which the Bar court
found breached her duty to remain uninu-
enced by her own nancial interests.
Even after the Bar launched an investiga-
tion, Karnazes remained her sons attorney
and proposed she give him $63,000 of his
funds in return for his not cooperating with
the prosecution.
In recommending Karnazes be removed, the
Bar court cited the multiple acts of miscon-
duct which signicantly harmed her son by
denying him the opportunity to pick his own
doctors and pay outstanding medical bills.
The Bar also considered Karnazes prior
discipline in March 2010 for being convicted
of trespassing. In the same consolidated case,
the Bar found Karnazes not culpable of mis-
conduct for failing to stop practicing law
when her mental condition made it unreason-
ably difcult.
Three years previous she had allegedly
taken several items without paying from the
Sears department store in San Mateo while
dressed in a furry red Santa Claus cap and
snow boots. Authorities placed her on a men-
tal hold after apprehending her because she
threatened to kill herself and said she could
lose her law license.
The following month, she was accused of
taking a $19.97 printer ink cartridge from
Radio Shack in Foster City and colliding with
another vehicle while driving away.
Karnazes pleaded not guilty by reason of
insanity in both cases but was found sane and
ultimately pleaded no contest to misdemeanor
trespassing.
Karnazes is also in the midst of a legal bat-
tle with the city of Foster City over her home
which the city declared a public nuisance
because of the alleged amount of debris and
clutter. The two parties settled the case in
October 2008 and Karnazes agreed to bring
her home into compliance but, according to
court documents, failed to follow up with
inspections and xes. The city re chief
reported Karnazes created a re hazard with
items lling all major rooms of the house and
garage with some piles more than 10 feet
high.
Barring any appeals by Karnazes, the dis-
barment will be effective once approved by
the California Supreme Court, according to
Bar Acting Communications Director Laura
Ernde.
Meanwhile, she remains inactive.

Draper University officials are fine-tuning
their proposal to occupy three buildings in
downtown San Mateo after facing the
Planning Commission Tuesday night.
The commission sent the university back
to the drawing board to come up with more
detailed plans for the project, especially for
the Collective Antiques building on Third
Avenue.
The entrepreneurial school held its first
session this past summer with 45 students
and plans to start up again this January with
about 150.
The university, founded by venture capi-
talist Tim Draper, currently occupies the old
Benjamin Franklin Hotel downtown and
wants to expand to the Collective Antiques
building across the street and the old
Wachovia bank building on Fourth Avenue
for a retail store and administrative offices.
They are not quite sure what the plan is
for the Collective Antiques building. It is a
work in progress and we asked them to put
more work and thought into the plan,
Planning Commissioner Kelly Moran told
the Daily Journal yesterday.
In general, though, the commission is in
support of the project, she said.
We really want to see this project be suc-
cessful, Moran said.
The commission gave university officials
direction on a number of items including
parking for visitors, bicycle parking, signs
and even paint colors.
Draper plans to keep the pool in the back
of the hotel and will need to fence it since it
shares a courtyard that is partly owned by
the city.
The main questions, however, were cen-
tered around the plans for the Collective
Antiques building, including how the space
will be partitioned and used.
We challenged them to be more creative,
Moran said.
Draper bought the Collective Antiques
building earlier this year from the Musich
family and won the Benjamin Franklin Hotel
in a Dutch auction in 2011 for about $6 mil-
lion. He already owned the old Wachovia
Bank property before setting his sights on
opening a school.
If all goes according to plan, the universi-
ty will be housed at the hotel at 36-44 E.
Third Ave., the Collective Antiques building
at 51-65 E. Third Ave., and the old Wachovia
bank building at 37 E. Fourth Ave.
The school plans to have four 10-week
sessions that coordinate with the Stanford
University quarterly system.
It expects to board about 150 students,
aged 21 to 24, at the hotel with a condition
that the students leave their cars at home.
At the end of the session, students will
have the opportunity to pitch for funding
from Silicon Valley venture capitalists.
Draper is the founder of the venture capi-
tal firm Draper Fisher Jurvetson and funded
Hotmail, Skype and Baidu in their infancies.
Draper University officials will have to
come back to the Planning Commission
before the City Council takes final action on
the proposal.
We are going to keep working with city
planners to improve certain aspects of the
proposal, Carol Lo, the universitys chief
operating officer, said.

Ex-Goldman exec given
two years for inside trades
NEW YORK A former Goldman Sachs
and Procter & Gamble Co. board member was
sentenced to two years in prison Wednesday,
culminating a spectacular fall from grace for a
man whose good deeds worldwide brought
him leniency after he was convicted of feed-
ing inside information about board dealings to
a billionaire hedge fund owner who was his
friend.
Rajat Gupta, 63, of Westport, Conn.,
learned his fate from U.S. District Court
Judge Jed Rakoff, who defended the length of
the prison term he levied, blasting federal sen-
tencing guidelines that he said called for
Gupta to serve at least 6 1/2 years behind bars.
He also ordered him to pay a $5 million ne.
Citing information he received under seal,
Rakoff said Guptas crimes may have
occurred because Gupta may have longed to
escape the straightjacket of overwhelming
responsibility, and had begun to loosen his
self-restraint in ways that clouded his judg-
ment.
Oregon scientists make
embryos with two women, one man
NEW YORK Scientists in Oregon have
created embryos with genes from one man
and two women, using a provocative tech-
nique that could someday be used to prevent
babies from inheriting certain rare incurable
diseases.
The researchers at Oregon Health &
Sciences University said they are not using the
embryos to produce children, and it is not
clear when or even if this technique will be
put to use. But it has already stirred a debate
over its risks and ethics in Britain, where sci-
entists did similar work a few years ago.

SEATTLE An Algerian man whose sen-
tence for plotting to blow up the Los Angeles
airport around the turn of the new millennium
was thrown out for being too lenient was
ordered Wednesday to spend 37 years in
prison.
Ahmed Ressam, who had trained with al-
Qaida in Afghanistan, was arrested in
December 1999 when a customs agent noticed
that he appeared suspicious as he drove off a
ferry from Canada onto Washingtons
Olympic Peninsula. A resulting search turned
up a trunk full of explosives.
Ressams capture, after a brief foot chase,
prompted fears of a terrorist attack and the
cancellation of Seattles New Years Eve re-
works.
U.S. District Judge John C. Coughenour
had twice ordered him to serve 22-year terms,
but both times the sentences were rejected on
appeal.
This time, Ressams
attorneys conceded that he
should face at least three
decades to satisfy the
appeals courts, but no
more than 34 years.
The Justice Department,
which previously sought
sentences of 35 years and
of life in prison, recom-
mended a life sentence
again because of the mass murder Ressam
intended to inict. In those pre-Sept. 11 days,
it was a virtually unimaginable horror,
Assistant U.S. Attorney Helen Brunner told
the court.
If Mr. Ressam had succeeded, she said, it
is likely hundreds if not thousands of innocent
lives would have been lost.
Brunner also argued that Ressam continues
to pose a threat, as evidenced by his recanta-
tion of prior cooperation, which forced the
government to dismiss charges against two
coconspirators.
Ressams lawyer, Thomas Hillier, dis-
agreed, pointing to a letter Ressam sent the
judge this week in which he wrote: I am
against killing innocent people of any gender,
color or religion. I apologize for my actions.
Ressam, who made a similar statement to
the court in 2003, did not speak at the hearing
Wednesday.
Prosecutors and defense attorneys said they
would review the ruling, and neither indicated
whether they would appeal. U.S. Attorney
Jenny Durkan said that regardless of whether
she agreed with the judge, the case represent-
ed a victory for the rule of law.
We afforded a man who sought to do us the
greatest harm the full due process of the law,
she said.
Coughenour read his lengthy sentencing
order from the bench, noting that of the 4,000
to 5,000 sentences he had handed down in his
31-year career, Ressams case was the only
one he could remember in which the 9th U.S.
Circuit Court of Appeals deemed him too
lenient.

SACRAMENTO The official voting
record makes it appear that state lawmakers
were eager to wade into the politically sensitive
debate about whether certain people listed as
child abusers when they were minors should be
given a second chance.
The ofcial recorded vote in the California
Assembly shows that 64 of the 80 lawmakers
voted yes on AB1707, which would allow
people listed on a central child abuse registry as
minors to eventually have their name removed.
In fact, the legislation actually passed by just
a single vote in August, with more than one-
third of Assembly members opting not to cast a
vote when the bill was debated. Instead, they
added their names after the issue had been
decided.
AB1707 provides a case study of vote
changing in the Assembly. It attracted 36 vote
additions and three after-the-fact vote reversals
on both Assembly oor votes, more changes
than almost any other piece of legislation this
year.
Democrats appear to have been reluctant to
endorse the bill until they were sure of its pas-
sage, while Republicans appear to have been
wary of incurring anger from the law enforce-
ment community.
Tough-on-crime posturing always makes
issues like this tough to put out there, said the
bills author, Assemblyman Tom Ammiano, D-
San Francisco.
A yearlong analysis by the Associated Press
found that lawmakers in the Assembly took
advantage of the practice more than 5,000
times during the nine-month session that ended
in August. Many of the bills that attracted the
most changes this year dealt with politically
divisive topics such as taxes, health care and
crime.
The social welfare groups that supported
Ammianos AB1707 said the bill would level
the playing eld for foster children, who often
end up on the states child abuse registry for
stghts or even playing doctor when they
are young because their caretakers have a legal
obligation to report all incidents, no matter how
trivial.

DAVENPORT, Iowa President
Barack Obama is condently pre-
dicting speedy second-term agree-
ment with Republicans to reduce
federal decits and overhaul immi-
gration laws, commenting before
setting out Wednesday on a 40-hour
campaign marathon through battle-
ground states that could decide
whether hell get the chance.
Republican Mitt Romney looked to
the Midwest for a breakthrough in a
close race shadowed by a weak
economy.
Romney declared, Were going to
get this economy cooking again,
addressing a boisterous crowd in
Reno, Nev., before ying back east-
ward to tend to his prospects in Ohio
and Iowa. Romney urged audience
members to consider their personal
circumstances, and he said the out-
come of the Nov. 6 election will
make a difference for the nation, will
make a difference for the families of
the nation and will make a difference
for your family, individually and
specically.
With 13 days until Election Day,
opinion polls depicted a close race
nationally. Romneys campaign
claims momentum as well as the
lead in Florida and North Carolina,
two battleground states with a com-
bined 44 of the 270 electoral votes
needed to win. Obamas aides insist
the president is ahead or tied with his
rival in both of those states and in the
other seven decisive battlegrounds.
Not even Obama, in an interview
with radio host Tom Joyner, predict-
ed that fellow Democrats would win
control of the House from
Republicans, who are looking to
renew a majority they won two years
ago in a landslide triggered by the
Tea Party.
The Democrats and Republicans
are struggling uncertainly for control
of the Senate. And for the second
time, a hard-fought Senate campaign
was jolted by a dispute over abor-
tion, in this case a statement by
Republican Richard Mourdock of
Indiana that when a woman becomes
pregnant by rape, thats something
God intended and there should be
no abortion allowed.
Romney said he disagreed with
the remarks. However, unlike an ear-
lier abortion-related controversy
involving Rep. Todd Akin of
Missouri, Romney did not disavow
his support for Mourdock, who is
locked in a close race with Rep. Joe
Donnelly, his Democratic opponent.
The presidents major focus was
his coast-to-coast-and-back again
tour.
Were going to pull an all-
nighter. No sleep, the president said
shortly after Air Force One touched
down in Iowa, rst stop of a swing
that included Colorado, California,
Nevada, Ohio, Virginia and Florida,
with a quick stop in Illinois to cast
an early ballot, before he returns to
the White House on Thursday
evening.
On his second stop of the long day,
Obama told a crowd of about 16,000
people at Denvers City Park that he
was red up though tempera-
tures dropped near 50 degrees.

WASHINGTON Two hours
after the U.S. Consulate came under
attack in Benghazi, Libya, the White
House was told that a militant group
was claiming responsibility for the
violence that killed the U.S. ambassa-
dor and three other Americans.
A State Department email sent to
intelligence ofcials and the White
House situation room said the
Islamist group Ansar al-Sharia
claimed responsibility on Facebook
and Twitter, and also called for an
attack on the U.S. Embassy in Tripoli.
The document may fuel
Republican efforts to show that the
White House knew it was a terrorist
attack, even as the U.S. ambassador
to the United Nations was saying
ve days afterward that it
appeared to be a protest gone awry.
The Obama administrations
account of the Benghazi events has
become a campaign issue, with
Republican challenger Mitt Romney
and GOP lawmakers accusing the
White House of misleading
Americans about the nature of the
attack. But militant groups often sur-
face after such attacks claiming
responsibility and its difcult to
immediately verify such claims.
The Associated Press and other
news organizations obtained the
unclassied email and two related
emails from government ofcials
who requested anonymity because
they were not authorized to speak
about them publicly.
The House and Senate committees
that oversee intelligence received a
raft of documents from the Ofce of
Director of National Intelligence on
Monday, two congressional aides
said. Congressional staffers combing
through the documents have found a
kaleidoscope of sometimes conict-
ing intelligence, backing up much of
what intelligence ofcials explained
over the past several weeks.
But members of both committees
are still complaining that the original
brieng they were given just after the
Tuesday, Sept. 11 attack, differed
markedly from the explanation the
CIA director David Petraeus gave
them by the end of that week. In that
rst brieng, just 12 hours after con-
sulate was burned down, the intelli-
gence committees received a report
that it was a military style assault, but
just days later, Petraeus stressed that
militants had inltrated a mob, a U.S.
ofcial said.

LORDSTOWN, Ohio
President Barack Obamas decision
to help Americas automakers could
end up being what helps drive him
back into the White House.
Some 850,000 jobs in this critical
battleground state are tied to autos
and Obamas campaign constantly
reminds voters theyd be jobless if
not for the decision to inject taxpay-
er dollars into General Motors and
Chrysler. However, the move has
not translated into automatic sup-
port for the president, even in areas
that depend on the industry.
Republican Mitt Romney also is
pitching these voters hard with his
message that Obama hasnt bal-
anced Washingtons checkbook the
same way voters must.
One in eight jobs in Ohio can be
linked to the auto industry
whether its working on a factory
oor or selling groceries to plant
workers. The presidential races out-
come could boil down to whether
voters interpret Obamas move as
saving Detroit or bailing it out. But
like other ashpoints in this rough
campaign, there is little middle
ground between the versions of
events and what it means for voters
neighbors.
Auto bailout could be key
to Obama victory in Ohio
Locked in a stubbornly tight race,President Barack Obama and Republican Mitt Romney are demonstrating the
urgency of the campaigns nal stretch, with the incumbent alone set to cover 5,300 miles in the busiest single
day of his re-election bid.

JERUSALEM Hamas mili-
tants in the Gaza Strip red dozens
of rockets and mortar shells into
southern Israel on Wednesday in the
heaviest bombardment on the area
in months, drawing ominous Israeli
threats of retaliation and dangers of
escalation.
The violence came a day after a
landmark visit to Gaza by the emir
of Qatar. Israeli ofcials suggested
the visit, the rst by a head of state
to the Hamas-ruled territory,
emboldened the militant group.
The rocket re began shortly after
the emir left Gaza late Tuesday and
continued through the night. Israeli
ofcials said more than 80 projec-
tiles were red, and Hamas claimed
responsibility for many of the
attacks.
Israel responded with a series of
airstrikes on rocket launchers,
killing two Palestinian militants,
according to Gaza medical ofcials.
Two other Palestinians were killed
Tuesday.
Three Thai laborers working on
an Israeli farm were wounded, two
seriously, when a rocket hit a chick-
en coop. Other rockets badly dam-
aged ve houses and broke car win-
dows. Schools in the area were
closed.
Many people spent the day
indoors, while others stayed in close
proximity to the makeshift cement
shelters found in the streets of
southern Israeli towns. In one farm-
ing community, shrapnel covered
trees and a childrens playhouse in a
backyard.
Sometimes it feels like a scene
out of the movie Platoon, some-
thing out of the Vietnam war. We
can stay at home and just hear the
noise of the war, said Tamara
Cohen, a resident of the border
community of Ein Habesor whose
children, ages 9 and 5, spent the
night in a fortied safe room in
their home.
A video issued by Hamas mili-
tary wing showed six rockets peel-
ing off in rapid succession, then
later, from what appears to be a dif-
ferent location, eight rockets shoot
off, leaving plumes of black smoke
behind them.
Hamas said the video was made
earlier in the day, though it provided
no proof.

Nothing typies the dilemma more

Letters to the editor
By David Lewis and Ron Fong
T
he recent passage of a model bag
ban by the San Mateo County Board
of Supervisors could be a boon for
the Bay without harming businesses. To pro-
tect the Bay from trash and level the playing
eld for businesses from San Jose to San
Francisco, all cities in San Mateo County
should adopt this simple, effective ordi-
nance.
The ordinance bans single-use plastic bags
at all retail stores, except restaurants, and
requires businesses to charge customers a
minimum of 10 cents for each paper bag.
The California Grocers Association supports
this regional approach that creates consisten-
cy for businesses and consumers while bene-
ting the environment. Bans combined with
store charges are also a powerful incentive to
nudge consumers to bring their own reusable
bags. According to the association, stores
located in cities that require bag charges
report that up to 90 percent of customers
bring their own, a clear win for the environ-
ment.
The impact of plastic bag pollution on our
rivers, bays and oceans is well documented.
Plastic never biodegrades in a marine envi-
ronment, and it smothers wetlands and
chokes wildlife. Even if
people are conscientious
about not littering, light-
weight bags blow out of
uncovered garbage cans,
down storm drains and
into our waterways.
Californians use 19 billion
plastic bags annually, and
at least 1 million end up
in San Francisco Bay.
Eliminating this pervasive
litter doesnt just benet
the environment; it saves
cities from spending
money to unclog storm
drains and clean streets
and creeks. Regulating
bags will help everyones
bottom line.
San Mateo County
partnered with more than
20 cities, including six in neighboring Santa
Clara County, and conducted a full environ-
mental impact report to develop this model
ordinance. The results speak for themselves
in this weeks unanimous vote by the San
Mateo County Board of Supervisors to
approve the recommendation. Now its time
for cities to move forward and adopt a uni-
form approach throughout the county.
A healthy San Francisco Bay is essential
to our quality of life and our economy. As
more cities ban plastic bags, and encourage
consumer adoption of reusable bags region-
wide, it will make a huge difference for the
Bay and wildlife, while reducing consumer
confusion.
Thanks to the leadership of San Francisco,
San Jose and other cities, half the Bay Area
population now lives in communities where
bans on single-use plastic bags are in force
or imminent. All cities in San Mateo and
Santa Clara counties should join them, and
make the whole Peninsula plastic bag-free.
David Lewis is executive director of Save The
Bay, the San Francisco Bay Areas oldest and
largest organization working to protect and
restore the Bay. Ron Fong is president and
CEO of the California Grocers Association, a
nonprot, statewide trade association repre-
senting the food industry since 1898.

Editor,
Congratulations to the San Francisco
Giants! On the brink of elimination for many
games, they defeated the Reds, and the
Cards. The Giants winning the National
League Championship was the result of
many factors that each of us can apply to our
own lives: hard work, perseverance, team-
work, communication (Pences motivational
pep talks before do or die games) and coach-
ing. Think about it and apply it to your own
life, career and marriage or relationships. Go
Giants!

High school football coverage
Editor,
There is nothing more enjoyable for me
than to go to a high school football game on
a beautiful fall day.
Last Friday afternoon (Oct. 12), I attended
the Aragon Dons vs. Half Moon Bay game at
Aragon.
The following day I love to read the Daily
Journal account of the game. In my opinion,
your papers coverage of local high school
sports is simply the best.
The headline Passing game leads Aragon
to victory by Nathan Mollat I was read-
ing the article about the game when the six
or seven paragraphs really got my attention.
Coach Steve Sell said he is ghting himself
in trying to identify what kind of team he
has. We have some unique players, Sell
said in the Oct. 13 edition of the Daily
Journal. Sell said, I ght the internal battle
of sticking to our core offense (the run game)
or shaping the offense around the athletes we
have.
The answer for me is: A great coach
always makes the adjustment to the talent he
has, a great parent has to adjust to each child.
A great teacher has to adjust their lesson plan
according to the abilities of the students, etc.,
etc., etc.
The sports world is made up of cliches. I
would like to close with a few cliches of my
own: intelligence is adaptability; humility is
teachability; my way or the highway does not
work.
This year the Aragon Dons have more tal-
ent than the Sera Padres.

The Wisconsin lesson
Editor,
I think Sue Lempert is drawing the wrong
impression about Wisconsin to inform her
position on Proposition 32. In her column,
How I plan to vote and why in the Oct. 22
edition of the Daily Journal, she writes:
Proposition 32 Political Contributions:
NO. This is another union busting initiative
put on by special interests who are trying to
achieve Wisconsin skullduggery in
California.
I dont think Proposition 32 will prevent
the free association of people who want to
form union-related political committees to
promote activist agendas. Proposition 32 is
about preventing unions from stealing from
paychecks to promote political agendas con-
trary to the wishes of the workers. Those tel-
evision ads are asinine misdirection and if
she wants to draw a lesson about Wisconsin
political skullduggery, she should try the one
in which Wisconsin thugs attack Republicans
for posting yard signs. Now thats a skull-
duggery impression.
Sue should also explain how it isnt a con-
ict of interest for public ofcials to negoti-
ate contracts with government worker unions
while receiving political contributions from
the same unions. Actually, I would say its
fraudulent, but what would I know? Im just
one of those ignorant Tea Party types who
couldnt possibly understand how the good
deeds done with tax dollars and union dues
always outweigh the bad, no matter how
absurdly awful those bad deeds are. After all,
our political betters and union leaders always
know whats best to do with any spare
change or paychecks we might happen to
have.

described the girl as a mixed-heritage

Yep, her dad hails from a similarly

With her lighter complexion and eyes, Soa

ber of mixed-race individuals should be
equally insulted Soa isnt considered good
enough to represent.
Of course, all little girls want to see them-
selves reected in their princesses and dolls.
This explains why all my Barbies ended up
with quasi-mullets in a sad attempt to give
them bangs like mine. Little did I know then
what I really needed was a strong pro-bang
contingent with a social media account to
shame Mattel.
Admittedly, all Disney princesses have a
certain look regardless of its foray beyond
the old-fashioned blonde tresses of Rapunzel
and Sleeping Beauty. Mulan, Jasmine, Tiana
and Pocahontas still bear the large, doe-
shaped eyes, button nose and radiant smile of
their predecessors. Even if Soa got a tan,
chances are she wouldnt stray too far from
the tried and true Disney ideal.
But this isnt Mickey Rooney playing an
Asian caricature in Breakfast at Tiffanys
or even Robert Downey Jr. playing an
Australian playing a Black man in Tropic of
Thunder.
Soa apparently isnt trying to be anything
other than who she is. If that is Latina, great.
If that is a melting pot of ethnicities, even
better. Unless the authorities in Galdiz take a
page from the Arizona playbook and ask for
identication and papers, Soa shouldnt
have to justify her heritage to anybody.
As one character in the movie Mean
Girls explains after another questions why a
girl from Africa is not black You cant just
go around asking people why theyre white.
Someday, perhaps, Disney and other ani-
mators will give us princess who better
reect the world. Maybe these new royals
will have a face only Prince Charles can
love; the company cant get much more real-
istic than that.
But until then, leave Soa be. Regardless
of whether the character is actually meant to
be Latina, those who think theres only one
appropriate way of appearing Hispanic
enough are the people who really live in a
fairytale world.

NEW YORK The steep losses
stopped Wednesday as the stock market
turned calm, a day after one of its biggest
sell-offs of the year. Indexes ended with
slight losses after the Federal Reserve said
the U.S. economy still needs support.
The Dow Jones industrial average
closed down 25.19 points at 13,077.34, a
day after one of its worst drops this year.
The Standard & Poors 500 index fell
4.36 points to close at 1,408.75 while the
Nasdaq composite index fell 8.76 points
to 2,981.70.
Today were assessing the damage,
said Mark Luschini, chief investment
strategist at Janney Montgomery Scott.
Everybody just got clobbered yesterday.
Lower corporate revenue and expecta-
tions for the rest of the year drove the Dow
down 243 points Tuesday, its third-biggest
drop this year. DuPont, 3M, UPS and
Xerox all reported lower sales than a year
ago.
It seemed out of the blue, but what we
were seeing was stock prices adjusting to
corporate protability, Luschini said.
The market itted between small gains
and losses for much of the day. Indexes
started to fade after 2 p.m., after the Fed
repeated its assessment that the U.S. eco-
nomic recovery remains modest at best.
At the end of its latest two-day meeting,
the Fed said the economy is still expand-
ing at just a moderate pace and that it
needs time to see whether a new bond-
buying effort launched in September will
spur economic growth and new hiring.
Third-quarter earnings reports have
mainly disappointed investors. The Dow
has risen just one day in the last ve, a
gain of two points on Monday. It lost 205
on Friday following poor results from
Microsoft, General Electric and
McDonalds.
The latest batch of earnings reports was-
nt as dire, and there was the occasional
piece of encouraging news.
Facebook had its best day since its stock
market debut in May. The company said
late Tuesday that 14 percent of its adver-
tising revenue came from mobile devices,
allaying some investor concerns.
The social networks stock soared $3.73
to $23.23, a jump of 19 percent. Facebook
has swung widely since its IPO at $38,
and has traded as low as $17.55.
AT&T, which is part of the Dow aver-
age, said it added the fewest wireless cus-
tomers since 2003, far behind Verizon
Wireless. AT&Ts results still managed to
beat the estimates of nancial analysts.
AT&T slid 29 cents to $34.71.

NEW YORK The latest federal law-
suit over alleged mortgage fraud paints an
unattering picture of a doomed lender:
Executives at Countrywide Financial
urged workers to churn out loans, accept-
ed fudged applications and tried to hide
ballooning defaults.
The suit, led Wednesday by the top
federal prosecutor in Manhattan, also
underscored how Bank of Americas pur-
chase of Countrywide in July 2008, just
before the financial crisis, backfired
severely. The prosecutor, Preet Bharara,
said he was seeking more than $1 billion,
but the suit could ultimately recover
much more in damages.
This lawsuit should send another
clear message that reckless lending prac-
tices will not be tolerated, Bharara said
in a statement. He described
Countrywides practices as spectacular-
ly brazen in scope.
He also charged that Bank of America
has resisted buying back soured mort-
gages from Fannie Mae and Freddie
Mac, which bought loans from
Countrywide.
Bank of America spokesman Lawrence
Grayson said the bank has stepped up and
acted responsibly to resolve legacy mort-
gage matters. He called the allegation that
the bank has failed to buy back loans sim-
ply false.
At some point, Grayson said, Bank of
America cant be expected to compensate
every entity that claims losses that actually
were caused by the economic downturn.
Countrywide was a giant in mortgage
lending, but was also known for approving
exotic, even risky, loans. By 2007, as the
market for subprime mortgages collapsed,
Countrywide was anxious for revenue.
The lawsuit alleged that the company
loosened its standards for making loans
while telling Fannie Mae and Freddie
Mac, which were buying loans from
Countrywide, that standards were getting
tighter.
U.S. suit alleges brazen fraud at Countrywide
Facebook shares post biggest single-day gain
NEW YORK Facebooks stock gained the most in a sin-
gle day Wednesday since it began trading in May, a sign that
the social media companys complicated relationship with
Wall Street may be getting brighter.
Its been a rough ve months since the social networks
initial public stock offering, and its too early to tell whether
investors optimism is here to stay. But on Wednesday they
latched on to clear signs of growth in the companys third-
quarter earnings report. Several analysts upgraded the stock.
Besides posting quarterly results that inched past Wall
Streets expectations, Facebook on Tuesday also gave details
for the rst time on how much money it made from mobile
ads. This has been a concern since before its IPO. Although
the majority of 1 billion people who use Facebook each
month now access it using a mobile device, the 8-year-old
company was created in the age of desktop computers, for
Web pages. Facebook now calls itself a mobile-rst com-
pany, but it only started showing mobile ads earlier this year.
Zynga posts 3Q loss, shares jump after-hours
NEW YORK Battered shares of Zynga Inc. soared in
after-hours trading Wednesday after the social gaming com-
pany posted stronger-than-expected revenue for the third
quarter and said it will enter the gambling business.
The past few months have been tough for the company
known for games such as FarmVille and Words With
Friends. Interest in many of its Facebook games has waned,
and Zynga has had trouble making money from mobile
games. It laid off workers for the rst time on Tuesday to cut
costs, and on Wednesday posted an outlook for the year that
fell short of analysts forecast.
As it had earlier warned, Zynga booked a loss in the July-
September quarter due largely to a charge marking down the
value of mobile game company OMGPop, which it acquired
in March for $183 million.
The company lost $52.7 million, or 7 cents per share.
Thats down from earnings of $12.5 million break-even
on a per-share basis from a year earlier, when it was still
privately held.

Fans Third Avenue Sports Bar and Grill inSanMateo celebrate the second of PabloSandovals three home runs during the Giants8-3 win over
Detroit in Game 1 of the World Series.
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
In the 1980s and early 90s, there was an
NBC sitcom called Cheers, a Boston bar run
by a former Red Sox pitcher Where every-
body knows your name.
The bartenders at Third Avenue Sports Bar
and Grill may not know everybodys name,
but when San Francisco Giants playoffs
games come around, everyone is family.
Its great camaraderie (at the bar), said
Sara Puliatch, a bartender/waitress at Third
Avenue Sports Bar and Grill. Everyone (is)
having a good time.
Puliatch said the bar has been very busy
since the playoffs began, adding that last
Thursday was especially busy with the
Giants-St. Louis Cardinals game as well as
the San Francisco 49ers-Seattle Seahawks
football game. Bay Area sports talk radio sta-
tion 95.7 The Game was also in attendance.
The bar was three-people deep, Puliatch
said.
All the seats in the establishment were all
but lled 20 minutes before the rst pitch of
Game 1 of the World Series between the
Giants and the Detroit Tigers and the place
was standing-room only by the time the
national anthem was sung.
It didnt take long for the place to become a
party. When Detroits Delmon Young ground-
ed into a elders choice to end the top of the
rst, the patrons gave a big round of applause.
It was nothing compared, however, to the
eruption that happened in the bottom of the
rst when San Franciscos Pablo Sandoval hit
the rst of his three home runs on the night,
tying a World Series record.
San Mateos Mark Osier, a New York trans-
plant who grew up a Mets fan but who has
now adopted the Giants, said he has been at
Third Avenue a few times during the postsea-
son.
I think I was here for three of them. I live
a couple blocks away so its a convenient way
to watch sports, Osier said.
He said he would be just as satised watch-
ing the game at home with a few friends, but
the atmosphere of the bar during the World
Series trumps anything that can happen at
home.
Its a good atmosphere, Osier said. I can
have 30, 40 people cheering along with me.
Since the Giants played so well, recording a
8-3 win over Detroit, the crowd stayed hyped
all game long. When Marco Scutaro was
thrown out at rst on a close play moments
before Sandovals rst home run, the crowd
released a collective groan.
It was soon replaced by an eruption of noise
and the slapping of high-ves as fans cele-
brated the Giants taking a 1-0 lead on a
Sandoval blast to right-center eld. It would
be a recurring theme throughout the night as
Sandoval hit a pair of home runs off Detroit
ace Justin Verlander and added a third against
reliever Al Alburquerque.
That rst [homer] was a game changer,
Osier said. (It proved) Verlander is human.
Let the good times roll
C
.J. Easter had it made. The former
three-sport standout at San Mateo
High was a recruited walk-on to
play football at Stanford University where
he eventually earned a degree in engineer-
ing. He had a job working for a technology
company and everything was good.
But Easter wanted more. In 2009, after
graduating from Stanford, he began what
would eventually evolve into Performance
Science Training
Institute (PSTI), an
athletic training
regime for kids and
adults.
We ran our first
summer camp in
2009. At rst, it was
just a side job. I also
worked 9 to 5, Easter
said. I was training
from 6 to 9 in the
morning, then work-
ing 9 to 5 and training
again after work. I
was having much more fun coaching peo-
ple.
Since that rst summer camp teaching
speed training to kids, Easter and PSTI has
grown to offer boot camp-style training ses-
sions in Burlingame, Foster City, Palo Alto,
Redwood City and San Carlos, as well as
semi-private training in Menlo Park.
Saturday, Easter and PSTI will be giving
back as it will sponsor the rst annual
Burpees for Boobies breast cancer
fundraiser at Gunn High School in Palo Alto
Saturday. Easter said he was inspired to
raise money for breast cancer after one of
his clients was back training just six weeks
after a double mastectomy. Easter said the
doctor credited her swift recovery to not
only her positive attitude but also the way
she threw herself into her workouts.
She calls herself a breast cancer
surthriver because shes doesnt want to
just survive but thrive, Easter said. Shes
the inspiration (for Burpees for Boobies).
She was a client (before being diagnosed)

coach Mark Jackson jokes that his familys
nancial future depends on it. General man-
ager Bob Myers turns to inspirational quotes
not to dwell on it, and fans and reporters
always question it.
For all the moves made
and money spent, Golden

resting on two surgically
repaired ankles recovering
and staying at full
strength through a gruel-
ing 82-game schedule.
Stephen Curry and
Andrew Bogut, a dazzling
guard-center combo if healthy, also form a
duo that has struggled to stay on the court
before it ever came together and still hasnt
really come together yet. Bogut didnt play
during the preseason, and Curry sat out the

ankle again.

SAN FRANCISCO Barry Zito is playing
his part in this World Series, all right.
After years of being labeled baseballs most
overpaid pitcher, Zito took the ball
Wednesday night and thoroughly outshined
reigning AL MVP and Cy Young Award win-
ner Justin Verlander to lead the San Francisco
Giants to an 8-3 victory over the Detroit
Tigers that sent the orange-crazed home fans
into a Zito-fueled frenzy.
Three home runs from Pablo Sandoval only
helped Zitos cause in Game 1.
The left-hander watched
his teammates clinch the
World Series title two
years ago in Texas, never
playing a part on the eld
that postseason. That was
all the motivation he need-
ed to revive his career in
his early 30s.
Now, he has the Giants
one win closer to another
championship after a dazzling World Series
debut. The left-hander has just about earned
his $126 million contract in a sensational span
of six days. A hefty chunk of it, anyway.
Last Friday night at Busch Stadium, Zito
pitched a season-saving 5-0 victory against St.
Louis and sent the Giants home trailing the
defending champion Cardinals 3-2 and
they rallied again to reach a second World
Series in three years.
For anyone who doubted Zito could deliver
on the big October stage, while facing the
daunting task of dueling with Verlander, he
didnt inch once. And when two-time NL Cy
Young Award winner Tim Lincecum came out
of the bullpen to replace him in the sixth, Zito
ran off to a roaring standing ovation and
Zito shines in World Series debut

ALAMEDA As prolic as hes been in his
career, Oaklands Carson Palmer is on an
unparalleled pace for him.
Palmer is on track to join 2002 NFL MVP
Rich Gannon as the only quarterbacks in fran-
chise history to eclipse the 4,600-yard mark in
a single season. Gannon passed for 4,689 yards
during the 02 season when he led Oakland to
its rst Super Bowl appearance in nearly two
decades.
That would be quite an accomplishment for
Palmer considering the Raiders receiving corps
has been banged up since training camp.
Oakland has also had issues with pass protec-
tion and the running game, making it easier for
defenses to concentrate on Palmer.
Its also something hed
almost rather not see hap-
pen.
Yeah, because we want
to run the football, Palmer
said Wednesday. Thats
what we talk about, thats
what we work on. The bet-
ter you run the football,
those yards might go up
and the pass attempts go
down.
Palmer said the Raiders would be better off
being more balanced offensively.
Thats not happened so far. Not even close.
Oakland has been held to 120 yards rushing
or fewer in ve of the rst six games of the sea-
son. Much has been made about the zone
blocking schemes implemented by offensive
coordinator Greg Knapp but the Raiders also
added a handful of the gap-blocking plays that
running back Darren McFadden had success
running in 2011. The results continue to be
mostly disappointing.
Even though Palmer has thrown for 1,732
yards 11th in the NFL and has his high-
est passer rating (86.0) since 2007, the numbers
havent translated into many wins.
The Raiders (2-4) are coming off a 26-23
overtime victory against lowly Jacksonville, a
game in which Oaklands offense was dreadful
before Palmer led four scoring drives after half-
time.
It was the second time this season Palmer,
32, rallied the Raiders after they trailed heading
into the fourth quarter.
Thats one of the reasons Oakland coach
Dennis Allen isnt making too big a deal about
Palmers passing numbers.
I want to win, whatever it takes to win foot-
ball games, Allen said. If its throwing it 50
times a game, well do that. If its running it 50
times a game, well do that. Whatever the game
dictates for us to have a chance at winning the
football game, thats what were going to do.
Overall, the Raiders rank ninth in passing
and 31st in rushing heading into Sundays
game in Kansas City.
A more balanced attack would improve
Oaklands passing game even if it meant fewer
throws by Palmer.
I dont have a crystal ball, but the more you
run the football the more defenses have to
focus on it, Palmer said. Thats when you get
your opportunity to really throw the ball down
the eld on the nakeds and the keepers and
those long play-actions.
Palmer wants Raiders to be more balanced

The players union and the four players sus-
pended in the Saints bounties case led motions
Wednesday to have former NFL Commissioner
Paul Tagliabue removed from hearing their
appeals.
They asked in U.S. District Court in New
Orleans that Tagliabue recuse himself because of
a conict of interest, and also asked for a neutral
arbitrator to be appointed by the court.
The NFL said it would oppose Tagliabue step-
ping aside.
Commissioner Roger Goodell removed him-
self from hearing this set of appeals and appoint-
ed his predecessor last week. But the players and
their union contend Tagliabue should be disqual-
ied because of his employment by a law rm
that has handled bounty-related matters for the
league and represented Goodell in Saints line-
backer Jonathan Vilmas defamation lawsuit
against him.
The hearings are scheduled for next Tuesday,
subject to any court rulings.
The players association has concerns about
ethical and legal issues involving Tagliabue
hearing appeals by Vilma and defensive end Will
Smith, Browns linebacker Scott Fujita and free-
agent defensive end Anthony Hargrove.
Fujita, meanwhile, will be placed on injured
reserve later this week by Cleveland and will miss
the rest of the season. His suspension originally
was three games, then was reduced to one by
Goodell after a rst set of player appeals.
Vilma was suspended for the entire season, but
played last Sunday while the appeals process is in
motion. Smith has a four-game suspension and
Hargrove got eight games, subsequently reduced
to seven. But he was cut in preseason by Green
Bay and does not have a team.
The union also contends that such pay-for
programs existed when Tagliabue was commis-
sioner, with his knowledge.
We have advised the union that we believe
there is no basis on which former Commissioner
Tagliabue should recuse himself and we will
oppose any request that he do so, NFL
spokesman Greg Aiello said in an email. The
appointment is consistent with the CBA and past
practice, and there is no question that
Commissioner Tagliabue is fully qualied to hear
these appeals.
Last week, the NFL and the union discussed
the possibility that Tagliabue would step in if
Goodell recused himself from hearing the
appeals, and the union also suggested several
outsiders who could be used in place of Goodell.
After Tagliabue was chosen by Goodell, Vilma
said:
I think its a good rst step for Paul to be the
neutral arbitrator. We expect that he is going to do
things in a neutral capacity, which would be to
allow us to cross-examine some of the witnesses,
allow us to see more of the evidence if there is
more evidence and be able to have a fair hear-
ing.

There are no playoff predications from
Jackson heading into his second year. No
scintillating sound bites from the former
broadcaster and point guard, either. Just the
promise that if the franchises futility doesnt
turn around soon, aggressive owners Joe
Lacob and Peter Guber could make more
changes next summer.
I dont care who Im coaching, the pres-
sures always going to be to win and do the
job, Jackson said. Certainly we have a bet-
ter basketball team and I think theres added
pressure across the board. I dont run from it,
I embrace it.
Myers, the former sports agent promoted
from assistant general manager at the end of
last season, said the roster he helped assemble
is good on paper.
The true test of the season, though, will not
be looks.
It will be durability.
Curry, one of the NBAs best shooters when
healthy, missed 40 of 66 games last season
and has had repeated problems with the ankle
throughout his career. The former Davidson
star had arthroscopic surgery in April and had
surgery to repair a tendon in the ankle in the
summer of 2011.
The fourth-year point guard is eligible for
an extension with the team until Oct. 30 the
night before the season opener at Phoenix
or he will become a free agent next summer.
Myers has said the team plans to pick up
Currys extension by the deadline, though that
was before Curry sprained his ankle again in
Golden States 101-97 preseason win at
Portland last Friday night.
The Warriors also said Bogut is on schedule
and has not had any setbacks on his surgically
repaired left ankle, which he fractured on Jan.
25 while with Milwaukee and missed the rest
of the season. He came to Golden State in a
trade for guard Monta Ellis, among others.
Bogut had hoped to return for the season
opener, but the team has not set any deadline,
and even if the 7-footer from Australia played
it likely wont be for extended minutes.
It is frustrating and it does play on me a lit-
tle bit. But at the same time, I look back at the
injuries that Ive had and that could happen to
anybody, said Bogut, the 2005 No. 1 overall
pick. I cant control landing on somebodys
foot, and I cant control coming off the rim.
The Bogut-Curry combo, if healthy, has
solid support around it.
Power forward David Lee, who has aver-
aged close to a double-double most of his
career, will start along 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 the preseason to be considered
rotation players.
Jackson has had more time to prepare this
season than last, when the labor lockout elim-
inated most of the offseason and training
camp and limited practices during the
crammed 66-game schedule. Injuries also
decimated the roster, which has been quickly
reconstructed under Myers, and that has all
involved more optimistic than anything after
going 23-43 last season.
Theres a lot of excitement in here, said
Curry, who expects to start opening night.
The roster is deeper and we have a little bit
more experience than we did last year.
Hopefully we can get the season off on the
right foot.
The fear is still health.
Myers often ips to his phone for inspira-
tional quotes to keep him focused and moti-
vated. He admits he thinks about his stars
sturdiness often, then thinks backs to one of
his favorite phrases by writer Ralph Waldo
Emerson that starts: Dont waste life in
doubts and fears.
Jackson always has tried to concentrate
more on the players who are healthy than the
ones who arent. But looking at his roster, he
also knows Curry and Bogut are the key to
Golden States success and perhaps his
own future.
Jackson said the reason he made the bold
playoff prediction when he was hired last year
was to change the culture of a losing fran-
chise that, despite only making the playoffs
once since 1994, is consistently among the
NBAs top-10 in attendance and whose fans
are among the most vocal in the sports satu-
rated Bay Area. He said the teams mindset
has changed and there is no need for words
anymore.
Ultimately it comes to a point where,
enough of the talking, Jackson said. Go out
and do it.

offered a quick tip of his cap before disap-
pearing into the dugout.
During his 2012 transformation back to reli-
able starter, the 33-year-old Zito never wanted
the focus to be on him or how hes accom-
plished this remarkable comeback but rather
what he could add to make the Giants a win-
ner and playoff contender again. And, possi-
bly, win another World Series ring along the
way.
Nobody is questioning Zitos talents now.
His line of one run on six hits, three strikeouts
and a walk in 5 2-3 innings was hardly spec-
tacular but it rarely is. Zito is doing just
what manager Bruce Bochy asks of him: giv-
ing the Giants a chance to win.
Zito even added an RBI single in the fourth,
following up his bunt base hit in Fridays win,
as Giants starting pitchers drove in a run for
the fourth straight game.
This is the ultimate win for Zito, years in
the making. Not that he will say it quite that
way. Thats not how he operates.
When Zito was told he wasnt going to be
on the postseason roster in 2010, in one of
manager Bruce Bochys toughest conversa-
tions with a player, the pitcher immediately
went to work. He threw a bullpen session, he
kept himself ready if needed but never got
the chance. It hurt to the core, even if he never
said it.
He tried different deliveries and pitching
motions, he added a cutter to his repertoire to
give him four solid pitches to keep hitters
guessing.
In front of a sellout crowd at AT&T Park on
this night, he pitched rst to chants of Barry!
Barry! and later to hollers of Zito! Zito!
Who could have seen this memorable World
Series moment coming for Zito, only two
years after all the boos, from every direction,
in his home ballpark?
The Giants have won Zitos last 14 starts,
and he hasnt lost since Aug. 2 against the
Mets. Zito went 15-8 this season for his most
victories since joining the Giants
They score runs for him, general manager
Brian Sabean said, in very odd ways.
With the Giants, Zito has never been the
dominant pitcher he had been across the bay
as a member of Oaklands Big Three with Tim
Hudson and Mark Mulder. Fans quickly gave
up hope of Zito turning things around when he
went 43-61 over his rst ve seasons with the
Giants.
In a strange turn of roles, it was Lincecum
who pitched the Game 5 World Series
clincher against the Rangers in 2010 who
came in for Zito. Lincecum credits the veter-
an lefty for showing him how to better handle
the struggles, like this season when The Freak
fell into a long funk.
Lincecum came through, too. He pitched 2
1-3 scoreless innings of relief with ve strike-
outs.
Lincecums outing marked the rst time one
Cy Young Award winner relieved another in
the World Series since Baltimores Jim Palmer
came in for Mike Flanagan in 1983 against the
Philadelphia Phillies, according to STATS
LLC.
Zito and Lincecum certainly will share a
hug or a handshake after this one.
Hes a lot tougher than people think and
hes got a lot of pride and respect for the
game, Sabean said of Zito. He really want-
ed to be out there.

SCHENECTADY, N.Y. Jeff Blatnick, who
overcame cancer to win a gold medal in Greco-
Roman wrestling at the 1984 Summer Olympics
and went on to a career as a sports commentator
and motivational speaker, died Wednesday in New
York state at age 55.
Ofcials at Ellis Hospital in Schenectady, N.Y.,
said he died there of heart failure.
Blatnick was a high school state champion in
suburban Albany in the mid-1970s and was a two-
time Division II National champion and three-
time Division II All-American at Springeld
College in Massachusetts.
He qualied for the U.S. Olympic team and was
a member of the 1980 squad that didnt compete
because the U.S. boycotted that years games in
Moscow.
In 1982, he was diagnosed with Hodgkin lym-
phoma. He was treated and the disease went into
remission before he won the gold as a super
heavyweight in Los Angeles in 1984.
Blatnick was also a three-time Greco-Roman
national champion and won eight Greco-Roman
All-American awards, two World Cup medals and
two Freestyle All-American honors.
USA Wrestling National Greco-Roman Coach
Steve Fraser also won a gold medal at the 1984
games as a teammate of Blatnick. Fraser and
Blatnick were the rst two U.S. Greco-Roman
wrestlers to ever win gold medals.
I am devastated that Jeff Blatnick, who was a
great Greco-Roman champion, has passed away,
Fraser said. I am stunned by it.
Fraser talked to Blatnick a few weeks ago about
working to promote Greco-Roman wrestling.
I am heartbroken, he said. He has done so
much for the sport as an athlete, an announcer, a
leader and a spokesman.

While Osier may be new to the Giants
bandwagon, Gabe Garcia is a lifelong Giants
fan. In fact, Garcia has developed a ritual this
postseason, along with his friends Mike and
Basima, that encompasses a few watering
holes around the Peninsula. He said he starts
his pre-game routine at Buckys in San Mateo
before heading over to Third Avenue for a few
drinks and some food.
But he doesnt spend the entire game at
Third Avenue. After four innings, he excuses
himself and heads to Newalls Lounge in San
Bruno to nish up the game.
I have a pretty good track record (doing
this), Garcia said.
Garcia was pretty positive the Giants had a
chance to get to Verlander in Game 1, consid-
ering the Tigers were coming off nearly a
week of not playing meaningful games.
Any sport, you get too much time off, any-
thing can happen, Garcia said. Zitos record
against the [American League]? I like it.
As the game moved along, its surprising
how so many people become baseball experts.
Whether discussing Verlanders pitch count, a
surprising visit to the mound by the Detroit
pitching coach or a gentleman in his late 40s
or early 50s telling a young couple about the
vagaries of the splitter and the circle change-
up, everyone had an opinion on something.
The Giants, meanwhile, kept making plays.
Another huge roar rose from the crowd when
San Francisco left elder Gregor Blanco made
a sliding catch of a Miguel Cabrera dying y
ball. When Scutaro had yet another base hit to
drive in a run in the bottom of the third, the
crowd went wild again, with chants of MVP!
MVP! rising from the gathering.
When Sandoval hit his second home run off
Verlander, the place went absolutely nuts.
Not the same as watching with a few
friends in the apartment, is it? Osier cried
amid the din.
The icing on the cake was a Barry Zito RBI
single in the bottom of the fourth inning,
which gave the Giants a 4-0 lead, the crowd
quickly erupted with a chant of Zito! Zito!
Zito! And when he was lifted for a reliever
with two outs in the top of the sixth innings,
the Zito chants started anew.
Sandovals third homer of the game in the
bottom of the fth had everyone in amaze-
ment, but it didnt quiet the crowd as more
high-ves and celebration ensued.
The Giants tacked on two more runs in the
bottom of the seventh to give them an 8-1 lead
and everyone was already looking toward
Game 2.
While happy with the win, there was one
voice of reason among the noise, Third
Avenue owner John Chin.
I dont like it when they run up the score,
Chin said, intimating hed rather have the
Giants save some of those runs for Game 2.
For most of the fans, however, Game 1 of
the 2012 World Series was a time of celebra-
tion. Theyll fret over Game 2 tonight.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK NHL Commissioner Gary
Bettman says it looks as if a full-82 game
schedule is not going to be a reality, as the
lockout nears its seventh week.
Speaking at a news conference Wednesday
announcing the New York Islanders move
from Nassau Coliseum to Brooklyns
Barclays Center in 2015, Bettman seemed
resigned to looking at a shortened season with
the NHL and the players association still at
odds after months of negotiations.
Bettman stated, in making the NHLs most
recent offer, that a deal needed to be in place
by Thursday for the season to begin Nov. 2
and allow for each team to play a full 82-game
slate. With no negotiations scheduled, reach-
ing a deal in one day appears very unlikely.
The fact of the matter is there are just
sometimes that you need to take time off
because its clear that you cant do anything to
move the process forward, Bettman said.
Were at one of those points right now
because we gave our very best offer. That
offer, for better or for worse, was contingent
on playing an 82-game season. So I think
things actually in some respects may get more
difcult.
The players association reached out to the
NHL on Tuesday night in an attempt to set up
a face-to-face bargaining session Wednesday,
but the league declined. The NHLs position is
if the union isnt willing to talk about the
leagues offer that is on the table and isnt pre-
pared to make a new proposal of its own riff-
ing off that offer, there is no reason to talk.
There seems to be no interest in making
any sort of deal along the lines of what we
have expressed a desire and a need for,
Bettman said. Sometimes in collective bar-
gaining you have to take a deep breath before
you can move forward.

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. The
new-look Penn State Nittany Lions are
getting quite adept at proving skeptics
wrong.
Most of them stuck it out this sum-
mer after the NCAA announced sanc-
tions so severe, some college football
observers opined the program was bet-
ter off with the so-called death penal-
ty. About 10 players transferred
before preseason practice. Then, an 0-
2 start had even the die-hard fans won-
dering if a feared post-sanctions dry
spell had arrived early in Happy
Valley.
Not even close.
Penn State football is making head-
lines again for whats happening on
the eld. A ve-game winning streak
sparked by a fun, unpredictable
offense and trademark Linebacker U.
defense has propelled the Nittany
Lions (5-2, 3-0 Big Ten) into the
Leaders Division title race headed into
the Saturday evening tilt against
unbeaten No. 9 Ohio State (8-0, 4-0).
Both schools might be ineligible for
the overall Big Ten championship
because of sanctions, so Saturday
nights game has extra juice as a virtu-
al midseason bowl game in Happy
Valley.
These are the kinds of games you
dream of playing ... but we also feel
that we worked to get here, running
back and senior leader Michael
Zordich said. Weve earned this spot.
Perhaps no other team in the history
of college football has had to endure
the kind of adversity that has swirled
around the Nittany Lions the past year.

of the measure, and in fact a co-chair of the
coalition ghting the change, but said that
stance has no connection to his ofces push for
a Fairbanks execution date.
It seems logical that people would think that
but its not true. Its just time to keep this case
moving and follow through on the jurys ver-
dict, Wagstaffe said.
Fairbank, now 58, was sentenced to death for
the Dec. 12, 1985 attempted sexual assault and
murder of San Francisco resident Wendy
Cheek, a graduate student. Cheeks partially
burned body was found near Hillsborough off
Highway 280. Cheek had been stabbed repeat-
edly with a barbecue fork, knife and screwdriv-
er before being set on re. Two days into his
1989 trial, Fairbank, already a convicted felon,
pleaded no contest.
Wagstaffe said Fairbanks legal options to
stave off the imposed punishment have run out.
Regardless of whether his ofce prevailed in the
request for a date, Wagstaffe said he is obligat-
ed to keep the case on track because his case no
longer merits further appeal.
The last San Mateo County resident sen-
tenced to death was Alberto Alvarez for the
2006 murder of East Palo Alto police Ofcer
Richard May.
The last San Mateo County inmate executed
was Donald Beardslee in January 2005 for the
1981 double murder of Patty Geddling and

DELAY
launched a two-run drive in the third. Sandoval
reprised his power show from this years All-
Star game, when his bases-loaded triple high-
lighted a ve-run rst inning against Verlander.
And if there was any doubt that Verlander
was shaky, the best sign came in the fourth.
Thats when pitcher Barry Zito, a career .099
hitter, sliced an RBI single with two outs off the
current AL MVP for a 6-0 lead.
The festive crowd stood and applauded when
it was announced that Verlander was being
pulled for a pinch hitter in the fth. Sandoval
gave them another reason to get up moments
later when he hit a solo homer off reliever Al
Alburquerque in the fth, answering the cheers
by waving his batting helmet in a curtain call.
Pujols homered three times last year, Jackson
accomplished the feat in 1977 and Ruth did it
in 1926 and again in 1928.
For good measure, Sandoval lined a single
his last time up.
From start to nish, it was basically a perfect
game by the Giants. Coming off a Game 7 win
over St. Louis on Monday night, they looked
totally fresh.
Zito shut out the Tigers until Triple Crown
winner Miguel Cabrera hit an RBI single in the
sixth, and Tim Lincecum came out of the
bullpen to prevent further damage.
NL championship series MVP Marco
Scutaro hit RBI singles after doubles by Angel
Pagan. NL batting champion Buster Posey con-
tributed two hits and left elder Gregor Blanco
made diving catches to rob Cabrera and Prince
Fielder.
Game 2 is Thursday night, with Doug Fister
starting for the Tigers against Madison
Bumgarner.
The Tigers seemed out of sync in their rst
game following a ve-game layoff. That was an
issue in 2006, too, when Verlander and his
teammates had nearly a week off before getting
wiped out by the Cardinals.
ALCS MVP Delmon Young failed to run
after a tapper in front of the plate that the
Giants turned into a double play. The Giants,
meanwhile, kept getting good bounces, with
Pagan hitting a double that hopped off the
third-base bag.
Pitching in San Francisco for the rst time
since 2008, Verlander scuffed at the rubber
while warming up for the rst inning, pulled off
his glove after badly overthrowing a curve and
kept taking deep breaths. He hardly resembled
the guy who was 3-0 with an 0.74 ERA in three
playoff starts this year.
Ever since two poor outings in the 2006
Series against St. Louis punctuated by two
throwing errors Verlander has worked hard
to harness his emotions and 100 mph in the
early going.
Verlander was trying to settle in when
Sandoval tagged him, pouncing on an 0-2 fast-
ball and lining it into the front row over the
center-eld wall. Quite a start for the team that
nished last in the majors in home runs.
Get this: It was the rst three-homer game at
the stadium originally known as Pac Bell Park
since the very rst one, when Kevin Elster did
it for the Dodgers in 2000. Nope, not even
home run king Barry Bonds had done this.
It was certainly a moment of retribution of
Sandoval. He was benched during the 2010
World Series, his production and condence
down, his weight up. In the stands on this night,
fans wearing furry panda hats celebrated with
him.
Verlander got into trouble again the third,
and pitching coach Jeff Jones strolled to the
mound when the count went to 2-0 on
Sandoval. Verlander stared at Jones and shook
his head. On the next pitch, Verlander could do
little but watch the ball sail into the front row in
left.
To some, this looked somewhat similar to the
2010 Series opener. That day, the Giants beat
up the supposedly unhittable Cliff Lee on their
way to a ve-game romp over Texas.
This how got it bad for the Tigers: Former
closer Jose Valverde made his rst appearance
in 11 days. Leyland still isnt what hell get
from the struggling reliever.
Lincecum, meanwhile, retired seven straight
batters and struck out ve of them. The two-
time Cy Young winner has embraced his new
role in the bullpen.
Jhonny Peralta hit a two-run homer for the
Tigers in the ninth off mop-up reliever George
Kontos.
NOTES: Tampa Bays Desmond Jennings
was the only other player this year to homer
twice in a game off Verlander. ... Willie Mays
and fellow Giants Hall of Famers Willie
McCovey, Orlando Cepeda and Gaylord Perry
took part in the rst-ball ceremony. ... Tigers
great Al Kaline, now a team executive, watched
Detroit take batting practice from behind the
cage. ... The Game 1 winner has won eight of
the last nine championships. ... Cabrera and
Posey marked the rst set of batting champs to
face each other in the World Series since 1954
when it was Mays of the New York Giants and
Bobby Avila of Cleveland. When Cabrera
walked on a close full-count pitch, he playfully
patted the Giants All-Star catcher on his way
to rst base.

I used to think spring was the
busiest time of year in the garden,
but after reviewing my list of fall
chores I am not so sure any more.
I prefer a well-kept garden, opt-
ing to keep up with work as it needs
doing rather than letting it pile up
for one big assault. Experienced
gardeners know that gardening is
all about timing. I try to think about
what my garden will look like one
or two months into the future: what
the weather will be like, how I want
the garden to look and what will be
growing, blooming or dying back at
that time.
This strategy helps me keep up
with gardening chores and keeps
my rather large garden from
becoming overwhelming.
Now that the growing season has
pretty much come to a close, I am
thinking ahead to winter and to next
spring. Completing work now with
the future of the garden in mind
will make less work for me when
those seasons arrive.
Here is a sampling of chores that
may help you plan in your own gar-
den.
Cut yellowing perennials back
to the crown so they have time to
establish basal growth prior to win-
ter. This practice is benecial to
many garden perennials, and makes
spring clean up much easier.
Take soil samples from your
vegetable garden and send off to
your local county agricultural agent
for testing. Prepping your soil now
for deciencies will pay dividends
in next seasons bounty.
Place netting over ponds and
water features to keep out blowing
leaves. This will not only save you
time during future cleaning, it will
also keep pumps and lters work-
ing as they should.
Order spring bulbs while there
is still time to plant them, and plant
them as soon as they arrive.
Planting bulbs prior to cutting back
annuals and perennials allows you
to place them in spots where they
will be the most visible rather
than guessing. If you have already
cut things back before your bulbs
arrive, place markers in the ground
where you have space for bulbs to
grow.
Check gutters to make sure
they are clean. It is surprising how
much gunk builds up in gutters and
how quickly. Cleaning them now
while the weather is mild is much
better than cleaning them later
when the weather takes a turn for
the worse.
Divide and transplant perenni-
als that have grown too big or too
crowded. Cut back the plants before
dividing to make the task easier. Let
your friends know your plans ahead
of time and you will have a waiting
list of willing takers for extra plants
you dont have room for. Good gar-
dening friends will happily recipro-
cate with extras of their own!
Top dress garden beds with n-
ished compost. Conditioning soil in
the fall is easier once beds are cut
back and clear. Adding compost in
the fall allows time for the compost
to work into the soil prior to plant-
ing next spring.
Begin new compost piles with
fall cleanup refuse.
Collect and save seed from
favorite plants and vegetables. I
save the seeds from my heirloom
tomatoes every fall by collecting
them from tomatoes that ripen
faster than I can eat them;
inevitably, my heirlooms ripen all
at once!
Sew seeds for biennials such as
foxgloves. Once they are large
enough, transplant them directly
into the garden. Planting many
biennials in the fall will yield better
results than planting in spring.
A garden to-do list for fall
Planting bulbs, such as the tulips pictured here, is a fall task that you will appreciate having done come spring.

One of the most enduring of
Halloween icons, candy corn is now
over 130 years old.
Back in the early 1900s, when the lit-
tle striped treat was one of a variety of
fondant novelties crafted into shapes
like turnips, chestnuts and leaves, work-
men had to run buckets of hot, sugary
slurry back and forth across molds to
make it. Today, companies like Jelly
Belly and Brachs produce over 35 mil-
lion pounds of candy corn most of it
around Halloween.
One of the reasons candy corn has
remained so popular is that its a limit-
ed edition. This is really the only time
of year you can easily get it, and that
limited availability makes it attractive,
says Susan Whiteside, spokeswoman
for the National Confectioners
Association.
Candy corn has become not only a
staple of the trick-or-treat bowl, but an
inspiration for seasonal decor.
Whether youre setting a festive scene
or just indulging a nostalgic affection,
there are lots of ways to use candy corn.
You can even make some yourself
both edible and non-edible versions.
Candy corn kernels have more visu-
al impact en masse than individually.
An array of clear lidded jars filled to
the brim looks wonderful. Dump a bag
or two in the bottom of a hurricane or
large vase; add a pillar candle,
Halloween ornament, or twisty
branches painted black or gold and
youve got a great centerpiece.
Womans Day magazine suggests hot-
gluing kernels to Styrofoam balls for
colorful bowl fillers. (www.womans-
day.com)
Candy corn topiaries can be made by
studding foam or
paper cones,
adding stems,
and placing in
pots. Wreaths
made of
rows of
candy, hung
with a black
r i b b o n ,
look strik-
ing.
A n d
while youve
got the glue out,
consider adding a
few candy corns to
twigs to create candy blossoms. Or, if
youre patient, try stringing kernels into
a garland for the mantel or door frame.
Making faux candy corn is easy, with
a few craft materials in the signature
colors of orange, yellow and white.
Wool retailer Lion Brand provides free
online patterns to crochet stuffed toys
and little carry bags.
(www.lionbrand.com )
Get out the paint pots and paint the
top and base of orange trafc cones for
clever Halloween-night driveway mark-
ers. Better Homes & Gardens website
offers instructions to make a door deco-
ration by cutting a foam cone in half
lengthwise, painting it and adding dried
fall plant material. Spray paint gourds
and pumpkins for more entryway decor.
(www.bhg.com)
Ready-made decor with the candy
corn motif is easy to nd; look for string
lights (www.lightsforalloccasions.com),
votive holders (www.pier1.com), throw
pillows (www.way-
fair.com) and fab-
ric. (www.bug-
fabric.com)
Finally, if
youre up for
making your
own treats,
F o o d
Ne t wo r k
star Alton
Brown has
a recipe
o n l i n e .
(www.foodnetwork.com) Evoke the
idea of candy corn by creating tricolor
gelatin or sherbet parfaits, and topping
pretzels or cupcakes with tinted icing.
Nabisco is selling a limited run of
Oreos with candy-corn-colored lling.
(www.target.com)
Jamie Lothridge, a middle-school
teacher and avid baker in Toledo, Ohio,
who blogs about her passion at
www.mybakingaddiction.com, has
already repurposed the Oreos by turning
them into trufes.
As a recipe developer, new ingredi-
ents get my creativity owing. Ive long
been a candy corn fanatic, and autumn
is my favorite season, so making a
recipe with all my favorite things is kind
of a dream come true, she says.

Cut flower gardens are attractive options
for those who dont like removing the best
blooms from their borders and beds for
indoor display.
The bouquets also open new avenues for
creativity along with becoming something
personal to share. And perhaps best: The
cuttings can grow into a profitable sideline.
Ours is a hobby gone berserk, said Gail
Burr, who with her husband, Steve, operates
Everlastings and Time Country Gardens in
the Finger Lakes region of central New
York.
We always had an interest in gardening
so when we retired, we started selling our
bouquets and arrangements, she said. The
Canandaigua (N.Y.) Farmers Market is our
primary venue, although we also sell for
weddings.
The price of a Burr garden bouquet runs
$8 and climbs to around $25 for something
larger, like a hospital spray.
In my mind, flowers that bring beauty
into the home should be affordable. Burr
said. Typical florist prices are precipitous
for many.
The roots of cutting gardens go back to
the Victorian era or to wealthy landowners
who grew flowers for the manor house, said
Debra Prinzing, author of The 50 Mile
Bouquet (St. Lynns Press, 2012).
Thats what we think of as cutting gar-
dens, she said. One row of sunflowers, one
of snapdragons, one row of zinnias. Now,
though, were looking at adding cutting
ingredients to natural gardens. Theres
enough variety there that you wouldnt have
a bare spot.
Which blooms are best for bouquets? The
choices are vast, and include annuals, peren-
nials, bulbs, fruit, vegetables and flowering
woody stems. Think lilacs, zinnias, peonies,
mums, hydrangeas and sunflowers. Dont
forget roses, dahlias, cattails, succulents,
kale, grasses and lilies.
Many people have begun planting peren-
nials in their cutting gardens with new
genetics that produce tougher plants, more
blooms and longer flowering times, said
Anthony Tesselaar, president and co-
founder of Tesselaar Plants, in Silvan,
Australia.
Once cut, these newer plants come back
with even more flowers that grace the gar-
den, Tesselaar said.
Some suggestions for prolonging the
beauty of cut botanicals:
Cut the owers when theyre dew fresh in
the morning rather than wilted from the after-
noon sun.
Use sharp shears to prevent crushing the
stems, which reduces the ow of water to the
blooms.
Use a commercial oral preservative to
acidify the container water. Homemade for-
mulas include table sugar and bleach.
Adding some lemonade also extends the life
of the water, Tesselaar said.
Growing a cutting garden is one thing.
Knowing how to create a stunning display
with the cut owers is quite another. Here are
some tips:
Use a dominant ower or owers. Many
designers prefer working with uneven num-
bers, Prinzing said.
Insert a vertical feature, such as a ower-
ing branch or some ornamental grass.
Drape the arrangement with spillers
(vines, foliage, fruit) that soften its look.
Cut ower gardens boost the longstanding
tradition of garden-to-garden sharing,
Prinzing said.
I have a friend who saves inexpensive
glass vases, she said. When someone
leaves her house, they always leave with a
bouquet of roses from her house.
Cutting gardens can yield beauty inside and out
Many people have begun planting perennials in their cutting gardens with new genetics that
produce tougher plants, more blooms and longer owering time.

How to Sell Your Peninsula Home

Peninsula Market - If you've tried
to sell your home yourself, you
know that the minute you put the
"For Sale by Owner" sign up, the
phone will start to ring off the hook.
Unfortunately, most calls aren't
from prospective buyers, but rather
from every real estate agent in
town who will start to hound you
for your listing.
Like other "For Sale by Owners",
you'll be subjected to a hundred
sales pitches from agents who will
tell you how great they are and
how you can't possibly sell your
home by yourself. After all, without
the proper information, selling a
home isn't easy. Perhaps you've
had your home on the market for
several months with no offers from
qualifed buyers. This can be a very
frustrating time, and many hom-
eowners have given up their
dreams of selling their homes
themselves. But don't give up until
you've read a new report entitled
"Sell Your Own Home" which has
been prepared especially for
homesellers like you. You'll fnd
that selling your home by yourself
is entirely possible once you
understand the process.
Inside this report, you'll fnd 10
inside tips to selling your home by
yourself which will help you sell for
the best price in the shortest
amount of time. You'll fnd out
what real estate agents don't want
you to know.

In the letter, she thanked Belmont
residents who have worked tirelessly
on our behalf.
CSUS officials first stood in front of
the City Council in April 2011 with a
preliminary design review for the Davis
Drive project that the council enthusi-
astically supported, according to
school officials. The initial endorse-
ment of the project by the council sent
the school down a lengthy and expen-
sive process to design a new middle
school, according to school officials.
In the end, the council voted 3-2
against a general plan amendment
which would have allowed for the nec-
essary rezoning of the property we
hoped to develop. We are, understand-
ably, disappointed in this result,
Richards wrote in the letter.
At Tuesday nights meeting, much
discussion was centered on why the
opinions of some of the councilmem-
bers changed over the course of the past
18 months.
Councilman Warren Lieberman said
at the meeting he was caught off
guard by some of the councilmembers
who had never indicated that amending
the general plan to allow for a school
use on the property was a problem.
At the meeting, Lieberman was pre-
pared to discuss in detail the develop-
ment deal CSUS offered to the city that
guaranteed $250,000 in annual pay-
ments; a one-time $1 million payment;
and use of its turfed athletic field.
Lieberman even went through the
minutes of the April 12, 2011 meeting
with CSUS to see if he missed any-
thing as far as his colleagues opinions
were on the project.
At that meeting, Councilwoman
Coralin Feierbach, who was then the
mayor, said I think its fine. Welcome.
Please do it. I really like the idea. I like
everything about it. I like that your
school is coming to Belmont. I really
approve.
Tuesday night, however, Feierbach
said she changed her mind on the proj-
ect after CSUS started a publicity cam-
paign by mailing out fliers in late
August and for wicked comments
made on an online message board.
But some Belmont residents said
Feierbach had started to speak nega-
tively on the project before CSUS start-
ed its public relations campaign.
Also Tuesday night, Mayor Dave
Warden said during the meeting I have
tried to want to vote yes for this proj-
ect before he voted no with
Feierbach and Vice Mayor Christine
Wozniak. Lieberman and Councilman
David Braunstein voted to amend the
general plan.
He said the councils vote was a land-
use decision that has no right answer.
My vote is my opinion.
At the April 12, 2011 meeting, how-
ever, Warden said I think its a great
plan. I like it a lot. I think if you can
make it work now in Hillsborough, you
can make it work on Davis Drive.
He did at that meeting, however,
express concerns about increased traf-
fic.
Opponents of the project cited
increased traffic and noise as a reason
to vote down the project.
Wakefield Drive resident Joe
Brennan was initially the most vocal
opponent of the project during the
Planning Commission process who
started gathering support from neigh-
bors to oppose it in letters and petitions
sent to the City Council. He cited
increased trafc, noise and the loss of
heritage oak trees as reasons to vote
down the project.
The Planning Commission voted
against changing the zoning for the prop-
erty, which houses an ofce park current-
ly, before it sent the project to council for
nal approval.
Early on, Tahoe Drive resident
Michael DellAguila was a vocal oppo-
nent of the project based on increased
trafc.
Getting out on a normal day is hard
enough, he said about the trafc that
already exists in the morning at Ralston
Middle School.
He has mixed feelings on Tuesday
nights council vote, however.
Im kind of happy and kind of disap-
pointed. It did have some positives, he
said about the CSUS proposal.
Brennan, in an email he sent to the
Daily Journal yesterday, wrote: I feel
both CSUS and Belmont lost: CSUS lost
a dream, and Belmont lost an excellent
school. But, Belmont defended itself
against a misguided choice of a location
by CSUS that had serious short-term and
long-term consequences, both from qual-
ity-of-life and nancial standpoints.
CSUS wanted to purchase an ofce
building on 6-8 and 10 Davis Drive that
it currently leases, demolish it and build
a new school campus with a turfed ath-
letic field and one day a pool. CSUS
had offered use of its field to youth
sports groups in the city during summer
and on some weekends the rest of the
year, since Belmont youth have a lack
of suitable playing fields.

door proceedings to determine fines
against Pacic Gas and Electric. The
CPUC did not respond to a request for
comment.
There was a process in place and it
was totally violated by Mr. Peevey, said
Ruane.
There are two issues, he said. First, the
decision to have conversations behind
closed doors. Second, the CPUCs deci-
sion to select former U.S. senator
George Mitchell to serve as the media-
tor. While Ruane had nothing negative to
say about Mitchell, the process by which
he was selected is in question.
Its not right what happened. Were
all very upset, he said.
Holding the meetings behind closed
doors is a practice that led to dangerous
conditions that caused the fatal Sept. 9,
2010 explosion in San Bruno, Ruane
said. Sharing the information and safety
concerns, the resolution argued, is nec-
essary. As things are currently set up,
Ruane said Peevey is brokering a back-
room deal without the participation of
those affected by the event.
PG&E could face nes of between
$200 million and $2.5 billion for the
2010 explosion, which killed eight peo-
ple and caused a re that destroyed 38
homes. The CPUC, which regulates the
states utility providers, is considering
how much to ne PG&E for potential
violations such as poor record keeping,
operating a gas pipeline in a populated
area without the correct safety margins
and the failure of the San Bruno pipeline
itself.
On Oct. 5, the CPUC requested that
good faith hearings on possible nes
levied against PG&E take place behind
closed doors with a mediator talking
with seven parties involved in deciding
how much to ne PG&E. An administra-
tive law court ruled in the CPUCs favor
on Oct. 11. Mitchell was tapped to act as
a mediator. Letters were sent to
Mitchells ofce from the city this week
asking him to step down, said Ruane.
The parties to the mediation include the
city of San Francisco, the CPUCs
Consumer Protection and Safety
Division, the city of San Bruno, PG&E,
the states Division of Ratepayer
Advocates, Southwest Gas Corp. and
The Utility Reform Network consumer
advocacy group.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 25, 2012
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Dont feel obligated to
attend a social function just to keep up appearances.
If you dont like the event and/or some of the people
wholl be there, give your regrets.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Time is too pre-
cious to squander on just anything or anybody. Share it
with those you truly like and enjoy doing things with.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- It could turn out to
be a huge learning experience when you get involved
in a stimulating discussion with someone whose
views diametrically oppose yours.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- This can be an ex-
tremely favorable day in terms of fnancial gain, but
not necessarily from investments or joint ventures.
Youll play your own game for a big payoff.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Friends will have little
doubt as to where you stand, and youll be respected
for your candor, even when your position opposes
that of the majority.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- An old obligation that
has been owed you for quite a while is collectable
at this point in time. Approach the debtor in such a
manner that he or she will get the message without
resenting it.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Youre likely to be ap-
proached to chair a committee within a certain group
or club in which youre involved. It may be a tough
job, but it will have interesting side benefts.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Several of your goals
are achievable, but not necessarily in the way you
envision. If you discover you cant get past the ob-
stacles blocking your path, youll go around them.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- The old adage Experi-
ence is the best teacher will be true in your case.
When you discover you could once again repeat a
mistake that cost you some bitter moments, youll
circumvent it.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Someone who considers
you to be an easy mark is in for a rude awakening.
When push comes to shove, youll be extremely
resourceful.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Even though youll be
negotiating from a position of strength, youll still be
fair in your dealings. Youll go out of your way to make
sure that both you and the other guy come out well.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Service you render will
be given both willingly and expertly. However, no one
should expect a freebie, because you value your
work and the remuneration you deserve for it.
