The San Mateo City Council
will hold a special meeting
Tuesday to interview three con-
sulting rms, one of which will be
tapped to conduct a management
audit of the Community
Development Department follow-
ing a series of hiccups as some
on the council have described it.
D e p u t y
Mayor Robert
Ross, however,
is looking to
broaden the
scope of the
audit to take a
closer look at
all of the citys
d e p a r t me n t s
and their poli-
cies and procedures to help limit
the citys future liability.
The council decided last month
to conduct the audit although all
are not in support of doing it now,
such as Councilman Jack
Matthews.
It is not a process I endorsed
but I will take part in it,
Matthews said.
The department may have had
some hiccups such as the con-
troversial 7-Eleven on San Mateo
Drive the council ultimately ruled
was permitted to operate in error
but, for the most part, Matthews
said, the CDDs work has been
excellent.
He also does not like the word
audit.
It is not a good word. We need
to look at what the best practices
are and what a consultant would
recommend to make any
improvements, Matthews told
the Daily Journal.
Ross, however, wants a process
that will keep the public fully
informed on how the city conducts
its business.
An audit would help the city cor-
rect its past mistakes so that they
do not happen again, he said.
There has to be accountabili-
t y, Ross told the Daily Journal.
Auditor sought to dig into city
San Mateo to look deep into Community Development Department after hiccups

The countys waste agency is
meeting this week for the rst time
since replacing its board with
elected ofcials and members will
begin discussing whether they
need a technical adviser and a con-
duct code.
A technical advisory committee
would include appointees from
each member of the South Bayside
Waste Management Authority. The
committee would be charged with
helping the newly remade board
better understand the technical
aspects of waste management.
The SBWMAboard already has a
nancial conict of interest code
in place but, at Thursdays month-
ly meeting, it will also talk about
developing a code of conduct. A
previous code adopted in 2006 was
limited to the contractor selection
process but the board may consid-
er expanding it to other specic
actions like operating the
Shoreway facility.
Both ideas grew out of a blue rib-
bon task force convened earlier
this year to evaluate the SBWMAs
governance and operations.

With San Mateo City Manager
Susan Loftus recently announcing
her retirement, the City Council
will decide tonight how it wants to
go about recruiting a new boss to
handle the citys $160 million
annual budget and more than 500
employees.
Loftus departs her job Nov. 1 and
the council will likely have to
appoint an interim city manager
to handle her duties while the city
embarks on a hunt to fill her
shoes.
The council will decide whether
it should hire a consultant to nd
her replacement or whether the
human resources department
should handle
the job.
Staff is rec-
ommending the
council hire an
outside con-
sultant as it did
more than ve
years ago after
Arne Croce
announced his
retirement from the city managers
position.
Loftus was working under Croce
when he retired and the council
hired her to the citys top post
after a recruitment consultant nar-
rowed down a list of nalists to
just a few.

The national anthems of the sister cities of San Mateo and Toyonaka, Japan play before the
start of Game 3 of the Toyonaka Sister City Baseball Games on Aug.17 at Fitzgerald Field in San
Mateo Central Park. The San Mateo All Stars competed with the Toyonaka All Stars in a series
of ve games as part of festivities celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the Sister City relation-
ship.A delegation of Toyonaka city ofcials,student ambassadors,citizens,traditional Japanese
dancers,and young baseball players traveled to San Mateo to celebrate the milestone and reaf-
rm the Sister City relationship. Below left, San Mateo Mayor David Lim meets the players.

Paul Frank teams up with
Native American artists
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. It was
Fashions Night Out in Los Angeles.
Celebrities and models packed parties
and shopping extravaganzas thrown by
designers and retailers.
The people at Paul Frank Industries
famous for putting Julius the monkey
on everything from T-shirts to bicycles
were hoping to have some fun with
the latest trend of
Native American
inspired designs. Their
offerings included
feather headbands, toy
tomahawks and glow-
in-the-dark war paint.
The backlash was in
full swing within 24
hours.
Bloggers and other
critics blasted last
years neon-lit pow-
wow as racist and the
latest fashion faux pas to anger Native
Americans.
After apologizing, Paul Frank
Industries spent nearly a year working
with its most vocal critics and a diverse
team of Native American artists and
designers to create a new collection of
merchandise with a distinct Native avor.
This time, it was done right, said Elie
Dekel, president of Saban Brands, the
parent company of Paul Frank.
The beaded sunglasses, brightly col-
ored handmade accessories, tote bags
and graphic T-shirts were set to be
unveiled Friday evening at the Museum
of Contemporary Native Arts in Santa
Fe as part of the annual Santa Fe Indian
Market festivities.
Bloggers Adrienne Keene, a member
of the Cherokee tribe who writes Native
Appropriations, and Jessica Metcalfe, a
Turtle Mountain Chippewa from North
Dakota who runs Beyond Buckskin,
were among those involved in the
monthly conference calls
and hundreds of emails that
were shared over many
months as the project
developed. Keene, in a
recent blog post, called the
collaboration a big win
for Indian Country but
said it was important to
remember what sparked the
collaboration.
Remembering the
beginning is how we con-
tinue to move forward
together, she wrote. History is writ-
ten by those in power, so we need to
continue to push to have our version
shared and not forgotten.
People who worked on the project
were hoping the collaboration will
serve as a template for other manufac-
turers to be more thoughtful when deal-
ing with cultural imagery.
We were sincerely aghast at how we
had found ourselves in that situation
about a year ago, and today its truly
humbling to all involved that it has
emerged into something so positive,
Dekel said. Dekel said it wasnt until he
started talking to Keene and Metcalfe
that he learned the problem was much
bigger than a Warholesque ier featur-
ing Julius in a headdress.
It illuminated a larger issue of wow,
Native American imagery and cultural
references have been appropriated by
numerous companies and businesses
and industries over generations now,
he said. This is an ongoing issue.
Last fall, Victorias Secret apologized
for putting a Native American-style
headdress on a model for its annual fash-
ion show. The outt was criticized as a
display of ignorance toward tribal cul-
ture and history.
The band No Doubt also apologized
after running into criticism for its cow-
boys-and-Indians-themed video. In
2011, Urban Outtters Inc. set off a
restorm with its line of Navajo-brand-
ed clothing and accessories that includ-
ed underwear and a liquor ask.
The collection created by Paul Frank
and the Native designers incorporates
beading techniques and designs that are
inuenced by tribal cultures that stretch
from the Navajo and Taos Pueblo in the
Southwest to the Great Plains and Canada.
The designers include Autumn Dawn
Gomez, who is Comanche and Taos;
Louie Gong of the Nooksack Tribe;
Candace Halcro, who is Plains Cree and
Metis Aboriginal; and Dustin Quinn
Martin of the Navajo Nation.

apt. Paul Boyton created the Shoot-
the-Chutes in New York for the
famous Coney Island. It proved a
money winner, so he built one outside the
1893 Worlds Fair at Chicago where it suc-
ceed beyond his dreams.
The people loved it.
The (at-bottom boats) Shoot-the-Chutes
traveled at 60 mph down an incline which
rose 70 feet above the ground and down a
slope 350 feet long into a man-made lake.
The ride thrilled everyone. Accidents did
occur and some took a bath when the boats
overturned but the passengers only got a lit-
tle wet. Boyton decided to go national so he
sold rights to use his model to many cities.
The rst city to build a chute happened out-
side the 1894 Mid-Winter Fair in San
Francisco, inside the Golden Gate Park.
Railroad attorney Charles Ackerman
acquired property on Haight Street between
Cole and Clayton streets and opened it to
the public Nov. 2, 1895. The site was with-
in walking distance of the Childrens Park
in Golden Gate Parks east end. Atrolley ran
by the chute and ended at the Childrens Park
in Golden Gate Park.
The Shoot-the-Chutes became an instant
success. He charged 10 cents for adults and 5
cents for children. When it opened, it had
only the chutes and a food concession
stand. At the top of the chute, he had a
Camera Obscura housed in a Japanese struc-
ture. It had a convex lens focused on a mir-
ror that gave the view of the area around the
chutes. It was totally dark in this structure
and the operator suddenly pulled a lever that
released the chute and the passengers sud-
denly dropped down the slope at 60 mph.
What a thrill.
Later in the year, he enlarged his conces-
sion (for an extra fee) to include a scenic
railway that was almost a roller coaster. It
made dips and circled the perimeter of the
park, almost a mile in length. At the end of
the ride, it went into a 600-foot tunnel that
had lit-up scenic worldwide views of foreign
lands. The chutes offered food concessions
but no alcoholic beverages were sold. It was
a very clean operation and family-oriented.
A miniature railway, named Little
Hercules, that ran on a 9-inch track gauge
was built for the park as well as a English-
built merry-go-round named the The
Galloping Horses that gave a gently up and
down movement that the American merry-
go-rounds were lacking at this time. This
was free to the children.
Numerous activities were added to the
Shoot-the-Chutes. A bewildering London
Door Maze challenged patrons and drove
many crazy in their effort to get out.
The zoo opened in 1896 with animals
from around the world. Animals such as
Wallace the Lion, a jaguar, bears, a small
pride of lions, kangaroos, leopards and a
family of Orangutans, plus other animals. A
Darwinian Temple housed a variety of mon-
keys with a glass case in the middle of the
temple that had reptiles in it.
Achutes museum of animals was built that
housed dead stuffed animals. Agreat curiosi-
ty for the kids.
On June 27, 1897, a 100-foot-wide-by-
130-foot-long theater was opened. It had

Principal bans streaking at Paly
The principal of Palo Alto High School is
putting an end to the tradition of students
streaking across campus.
The ban came after a couple of boys took
off everything and ran across the Palo Alto
High School campus on the rst day of
school Thursday.
Typically this type of behavior has
occurred during the end of senior year prior
to graduation, Principal Kimberly Diorio
wrote in a letter to parents. In my six years
at Paly, it never has happened on the rst
day of school.
She said streaking at the start of the
school year creates a negative environment
at the school. Students who participate in
naked tomfoolery could face suspension and
a talk with school police, she stressed.
Streaking is a popular tradition at the
school, but students said some have become
more brazen with the routes they run and the
costumes they wear.
Senior Vivian Laurence said that when she
was a freshmen, a group of nude guys carry-
ing live chickens crashed her girls football
game, throwing the clucking, flapping
birds to the ground before racing off.
Sophomore year, another bunch of boys
wearing only cowboy tops rode stick hors-
es through campus. And the end of last year
there were several streaking incidents,
including one that had about 20 female stu-
dents dressed in the barest of Native
American accouterments who bolted across
the grounds, letting out whoops and
hollers.
Last year was pretty excessive,
Laurence said.
Man charged with assault of
homeowner during burglary
ARedwood City was charged on Thursday
with injuring a San Carlos homeowner in
March during a home invasion robbery,
according to the the San Mateo County
Sheriffs Ofce.
Ever Rodriguez Ochoa, 19, was arraigned
in San Mateo County Superior Court on
Thursday on charges of rst-degree burgla-
ry, assault and attempted robbery, Sheriff's
Deputy Rebecca Rosenblatt said.
Bail was set at $500,000 for Ochoa, who
is currently in custody on unrelated charges,
Rosenblatt said.
Ochoa was charged in connection with a
March 20th incident in which a San Carlos
resident was injured when he interrupted a
burglar eeing from his yard.
The resident returned to his home in the
100 block of Oakview Drive around 11:20
a.m. and discovered the suspect in the yard
about to leave with some of his property,
deputies said.
The homeowner tried to stop the suspect
from leaving and was assaulted by the sus-
pect, deputies said.
The homeowner was taken to the hospital
for treatment of his injuries, deputies said.

SAN JOSE Few are more
excited about Legos new
Mindstorms sets rolling out next
month than Silicon Valley engi-
neers.
Many of them were drawn to the
tech sector by the agship kits
that came on the market in 1998,
introducing computerized move-
ment to the traditional snap-
together toy blocks and allowing
the young innovators to build
their rst robots. Now, 15 years
later, those robot geeks are entre-
preneurs and designers, and the
colorful plastic bricks have an
outsized inuence in their lives.
Techies tinker at Lego play sta-
tions in workplaces. Engineers
mentor competitive Lego League
teams. Designers use them to
mock up larger projects ideas. And
executives stand Lego creations
on their desks alongside family
photos.
Everyone I work with played
with them as children. We sit
around talking Lego. Its a shared
common experience, said Travis
Schuh, who reaches into his bin of
plastic blocks when he needs a
quick prototype at the Silicon
Valley medical robotic rm where
he works.
The new Mindstorms sets, on
sale Sept. 1, are simpler for the
younger crowd and more versatile
for sophisticated users than two
earlier versions.
The sets are designed for kids
over 10 and make it easy to build
basic, remote-controlled robots,
including a cobra-like snake that
snaps Lego brick fangs. Some
shoot balls, others drive along
color-coded lines.
But for $349, far more expen-
sive than typical building toys,
customers get a much more com-
plex and powerful system.
Theres actually a lot of engi-
neering that goes into Lego bricks
and the systems you can prototype
out of them are pretty sophisticat-
ed, says Stanford University
engineering professor Christian
Gerdes, who uses them in his
classroom.
Professional hackers will also
nd plenty to do with the new
Mindstorms, as the open source
software uses Linux for the rst
time, and controller apps are inte-
grated for tablets and mobile
phones.
Adult users
San Francisco-based software
engineer Will Gorman is one of
those adult users. He has torn apart
Mindstorms kits to create a Lego
toilet usher, a Wii-playing robot
that bowled a perfect game and a
Lego Mars Curiosity Rover.
I dont consider myself an adult
really, said the 36-year-old father
of two last week, setting up yet
another creation on a table in a
sunny Redwood City library over-
looking San Franciscos bay wet-
lands.
ProtoTank co-founder Adam
Ellsworth, whose headquarters are
on the third oor of TechShop San
Francisco, says, there is a culture
of design in the Silicon Valley,
and Lego bricks are how so many
of us started.
This place is just one big Lego
station, he added, raising his
voice above the buzz of laser cut-
ters and 3-D printers. Taking an
idea, a concept, and nding the
right way to turn it into some-
thing real, thats fundamentally
what youre doing with Lego
bricks.
Denmark-based Lego rst sold
their plastic bricks 55 years ago,
and watched them grow into one of
the worlds most popular toys. But
company officials say
Mindstorms, designed for children
but quickly snapped up by adults,
changed their market.
In the last 15 years, we have
worked hard to balance the needs
and wants of this shadow market
while at the same time engaging
kids, said Michael McNally, a
brand director at LEGO Systems,
Inc.
Interest
Kellen Asercion, a Stanford
University engineering graduate
student, rst snapped Lego bricks

SAN FRANCISCO A San
Francisco Fire Department ban on
video cameras now explicitly
includes helmet-mounted devices
that film emergency scenes,
according to Chief Joanne Hayes-
White.
The edict comes after images
taken in the aftermath of the July
6 Asiana Airlines crash at the San
Francisco airport led to questions
about first responders actions,
which resulted in a survivor being
run over by a re truck.
Hayes-White told the San
Francisco Chronicle
(http://bit.ly/16zguEN ) she is
concerned about the privacy of
victims and reghters.
There comes a time that priva-
cy of the individual is paramount,
of greater importance than having
a video, she said.
The footage recorded by
Battalion Chief Mark Johnsons
helmet camera shows a Fire
Department truck running over
16-year-old Ye Meng Yuan while
she was lying on the tarmac cov-
ered with re-retardant foam.
Two other passengers died and
180 people were injured when the
Boeing 777 clipped a seawall
while approaching the runway and
caught re.
Images from the video were pub-
lished in the San Francisco
Chronicle, which reported that the
footage indicates that Johnson
had not been told that Ye was on
the ground.
San Francisco police, the San
Mateo County coroner and the
National Transportation Safety
Board are reviewing the footage.
Hayes-White said her 2009 ban
on video cameras in facilities was
meant to include emergency
scenes, but critics inside and out-
side of the department question the
timing.
The department seems more
concerned with exposure and lia-
bility than training and improv-
ing efficiency, Battalion Chief
Kevin Smith told the newspaper.
Helmet cams are the wave of the
future they can be used to
improve communication at inci-
dents between firefighters and
commanders.
The attorney for Yes family also
criticized the decision.
Why would anybody not want
to know the truth? asked
Anthony Tarricone.
Hayes-White said shes con-
cerned that the fire department
could be liable for violating priva-
cy laws. Houston and Baltimore
also ban the use of helmet cam-
eras.
Theres a lot of concern related
to privacy rights and the city tap-
ing without a person being aware
of it while responding to medical
calls, she said. Alot of informa-
tion is sensitive.
After airliner crash, helmet cams banned
Arrest after Facebook tip
in Calif. riot vandalism
HUNTINGTON BEACH Authorities
in a Southern California beach communi-
ty say they tracked down a suspected van-
dal after he liked photos on the police
departments Facebook page of patrol
cars damaged in a riot that followed a
popular surf contest.
Huntington Beach police say 18-year-
old Luis Enrique Rodriguez of Anaheim
was taken into custody Friday on vandal-
ism charges for allegedly scrawling
obscenities on the side of police cruis-
ers.
The Orange County Register reported
Sunday (http://bit.ly/16X9HD2 ) that
investigators identified Rodriguez after
the activity on the Huntington Beach
Police Departments Facebook page pro-
duced a series of tips.
The damage took place during mob vio-
lence last month that followed a surfing
tournament in the community.
An off-duty firefighter was among
those arrested after a mob broke win-
dows, looted and fought along the down-
town streets.
Rodriguez was arrested by Anaheim
police.

SAN DIEGO The effort to
recall San Diegos embattled
mayor is kicking off in the
nations eighth-largest city
Sunday, one day before Bob Filner
is set to return to work at City Hall
after undergoing behavior thera-
py.
The petition drive to boot Filner
from ofce amid sexual harass-
ment allegations was free to offi-
cially begin at midnight
Saturday, and organizers said
they expected some volunteers to
start gathering signatures right
away.
This is a tremendous grass-
roots undertaking truly the
people taking back their govern-
ment from an
abuser who has
betrayed San
D i e g a n s ,
d e m e a n e d
women and who
can no longer
lead our city,
said Michael
Pallamary, who
filed the peti-
tion to recall the Democrat.
Theyre ready to tell Filner, Its
over, Bob. The people are going
to show you the door.
The 70-year-old former con-
gressman has resisted numerous
calls to resign from the nine-
member City Council, and state
and federal elected officials,
including House Minority Leader
Nancy Pelosi, who has said that
Filner should step down and
spare San Diego the pain and
expense of a recall election.
More than a dozen women have
publicly accused Filner of mak-
ing inappropriate statements or
advances. The latest came
Thursday when a volunteer city
worker who assists senior citi-
zens said Filner repeatedly
rubbed her hands, asked her on
dates and made sexually sugges-
tive comments.
Recall organizers say they
have raised more than $100,000
so far and more than 800 people
have signed up to volunteer for
the effort. A table will be set up
Sunday at the finish line of
Americas Finest City Half
Marathon in Balboa Park, while
businesswomen and military sex-
ual assault victims will lead an
afternoon Freedom from Filner
march downtown. They also set
up a website at
http://www.RecallBobFilner. co
m , which includes a real-time
mapping function for petition
drive locations and petition
forms to download and circulate.
The petitions will include
Filners response, filed Monday
with the city clerks office, in
which he tells voters this is not
the time to go backwards and
touts his administrations job-
producing projects and quality of
life initiatives, like removing
cars from Balboa park and pro-
posing the 2024 Olympic Games
be held in San Diego and Tijuana.
Filner made no mention of the
allegations against him in his
response. He has said in the past
that he has disrespected women
but has denied being guilty of
sexual harassment.
The recall effort must collect
101,597 signatures of registered
San Diego voters by Sept. 26. If
the petition has fewer than that,
the recall campaign will have 30
more days to circulate a supple-
mental petition to gather the
additional valid signatures.
If enough signatures are vali-
dated by the city clerk, the peti-
tion will be presented to the City
Council, which must schedule an
election within 60 to 90 days
from then.
Filners lawyers said he com-
pleted two weeks of intensive
behavior therapy. He is expected
to return to work Monday.

Closed SoCal freeway
expected to open early
SEAL BEACH Atemporarily closed section of one of
Southern Californias busiest freeways was expected to
reopen earlier than expected Sunday, after workers demol-
ished a bridge.
The work along a 4-mile strip of Interstate 405 in Orange
County had raised fears of agonizing trafc jams, but of-
cials reported only minor congestion around detours.
State Transportation Department spokesman David
Richardson said the southbound lanes should be open by 2
p.m., several hours ahead of schedule, with the northbound
side following about an hour later.
Extensive publicity before the construction work appears
to have convinced most drivers to stay away from the area.
As many as 300,000 vehicles pass through the stretch of
freeway on a typical weekend day.
Obviously you are going to have some congestion with
a piece of a busy freeway shut down, Richardson said.
The closed section of I-405 is near its junction with State
Route 22 and Interstate 605.
Workers helming cranes and bulldozers began ripping up
the 700-foot bridge Saturday night. The demolition is part
of a $277 million project to link carpool lanes between the
freeways.

LONG BEACH The latest experi-
ment in American journalism is a
throwback: a new daily newspaper to
compete against an established one in
a big city.
With Mondays debut of the Long
Beach Register, the ambitious owners
of the Orange County Register are
expanding their bet that consumers
will reward an investment in news
inked on paper and delivered to their
doorsteps.
The competition is the Long Beach
Press-Telegram, which was founded
more than a century ago and maintains
an average weekday circulation of
about 55,000.
As a result of the budding newspaper
battle, this city of 468,000 is joining
the likes of Chicago, Philadelphia and
Boston as what has become a rarity in
21st century America the two news-
paper town. Never mind shrinking cir-
culations and online news migration.
We believe that a city with the size
and vibrancy of Long Beach should be
happy to support a great newspaper of
the variety we want to provide, said
Aaron Kushner, who since buying the
Orange County Register a year ago
with a partner has surprised industry
watchers by expanding
reporting staff and page
counts. If it is, well
make healthy money. If
its not, thatll be unfortu-
nate for everyone. But we
believe well be success-
ful.
By launching the Long
Beach Register, Kushner,
publisher of the Register
and CEO of Freedom
Communications, is tak-
ing his contrarian
instincts outside Orange
County.
Media business analyst
Rick Edmonds said the last
time he can recall a major
U.S. city adding a new
daily paper was around
World War II, when
Chicago got the Sun-
Times and New York got
Newsday. Abrewing news-
paper war in New Orleans
between that citys Times-
Picayune and a challenger based about
80 miles away in Baton Rouge, La., is
the closest to whats unfolding in
Long Beach.
How will it play out? asked
Edmonds, of the Poynter Institute, a
journalism foundation in St.
Petersburg, Fla.
Dont really know
until it happens.
Long Beach is a
diverse city better
known for its
sprawling contain-
er ship port one
of the worlds
largest than its
beaches.
While its ocean-
front drive features
a large aquarium
and the historic
Queen Mary ocean
liner, it also has
big city problems
including gangs.
Bordering Orange
Countys urbanized
north, it is in Los
Angeles County,
about 20 miles
south of downtown
LA.
In their small,
sunlight-ooded newsroom, reporters
for the new Register were greeted
Thursday by two boxes of doughnuts
and the kinds of issues that bedevil
startups: who sits where, how come
this outlet has no power, and how to
get an Internet connection?
Despite odds, city becomes 2 paper town

WASHINGTON Members of
Congress are split over whether
the U.S. should cut off military aid
to Egypt, highlighting the dif-
cult choices facing the Obama
administration amid spiraling
violence on the streets of an
important Middle East ally.
Democratic leaders have gener-
ally supported the presidents
approach. But on Sunday, Rep.
Keith Ellison, D-Minn., said he
would end aid to Egypt. Ellison is
the first Muslim elected to
Congress and is co-chairman of
the Congressional Progressive
Caucus.
I would cut off aid but engage in
intense diplomacy in Egypt and in
the region to try to say, look, we
will restore aid when you stop the
bloodshed in the street and set up a
path towards democracy that you
were on before, Ellison said. In
my mind, theres no way to say
that this was not a coup. It is. We
should say so. And then follow
our own law, which says we can-
not fund the coup leaders.
Among Republicans, there were
growing calls to eliminate mili-
tary aid to Egypt. But others were
more hesitant.
Rep. Pete King, R-N.Y., said
curtailing aid could reduce U.S.
influence over Egypts interim
government, which controls
access to strategic resources,
including the Suez Canal.
We certainly shouldnt cut off
all aid, said King, who chairs the
House panel on counterterrorism
and intelligence.
King said there are no good
choices in Egypt. Ousted
President Mohammed Morsi, a
member of the Muslim
Br ot her hood,
was democrati-
cally elected.
But, King said,
the group has
not demonstrat-
ed a commit-
ment to democ-
racy.
The fact is,
theres no good
guys there,
King said. But of the two, I think
there is more opportunity to pro-
tect American interests if we work
with the military and continue our
relationship with the military.
The split among members of the
same political party illustrates the
uncertainty facing President
Barack Obama as he tries to navi-
gate volatile developments in
Egypt, where crackdowns last
week left more than 600 people
dead and thousands more injured.
Obama has denounced the vio-
lence, canceled joint military
exercises scheduled for September
and delayed the delivery of four F-
16 fighter jets. But the White
House has refused to declare
Morsis removal a coup a step
that would require Obama to sus-
pend $1.3 billion in annual mili-
tary aid. The president insists that
the U.S. stands with Egyptians
seeking a democratic government.
But he says America cannot deter-
mine Egypts future.
Sen. John McCain of Arizona
renewed his call Sunday to stop aid
as the Egyptian military contin-
ues to crack down on protesters
seeking Morsis return.
For us to sit by and watch this
happen is a violation of every-
thing that we stood for, said the
senior Republican on the Senate
Armed Services Committee.
Were not sticking with our val-
ues.
The military ousted Morsi July 3
after millions of Egyptians took
to the streets to demand he step
down, accusing him of giving the
Brotherhood undue inuence and
failing to implement vital reforms
or bolster the ailing economy.
But Rep. Eliot Engel, D-N.Y. ,
said he supports the presidents
approach.
These are very, very difficult
choices, said Engel, the top
Democrat on the House Foreign
Affairs Committee. Im very
unhappy, obviously, with the
crackdown. But we essentially
have two choices in Egypt. And
thats a military government,
which hopefully will transition
as quickly as possible to civilian
government, or the Muslim
Brotherhood. I dont think the
Muslim Brotherhood is a
choice.

FORTHOOD, Texas The pros-
ecutors pursuing the death penalty
against the Army psychiatrist
accused in the 2009 Fort Hood
shooting rampage will soon
begin trying to answer a difcult
but key question: Why did Maj.
Nidal Hasan attack his fellow sol-
diers in the worst mass shooting
ever on a U.S. military base?
Both sides offered a few hints so
far. Although hes been mostly
silent in the courtroom, Hasan
used his brief opening statement
to tell jurors he
had switched
sides in what
he called
Americas war
with Islam and
he later leaked
documents to
the media show-
ing he believed
he could be a
martyr.
Military prosecutors opened the
trial by saying they would show
that Hasan felt he had a jihad
duty, referring to a Muslim term
for a religious war or struggle.
After calling almost 80 witnesses
over two weeks, prosecutors said
Friday they would begin tackling
the question this week.
How much they can say to
jurors, however, may be limited
by the judge. Even though plenty
of information about Hasans
extremist views has been pub-
lished outside the courtroom since
the rampage, the 13 military of-
cers on the jury said they had not
closely followed the case and
wouldnt read news coverage dur-
ing the trial.
Prosecutors asked the military
judge, Col. Tara Osborn, on Friday
to approve evidence and several
witnesses to explain Hasans
mindset. Such evidence includes
references to Hasan Akbar, a
Muslim soldier sentenced to death
for attacking fellow soldiers in
Kuwait during the 2003 Iraq inva-
sion.
Prosecutor Col. Steve Henricks
told Osborn that Hasan had shown
interest in Akbars case and prose-
cutors wanted to prove Hasans
attack was a copycat. The skep-
tical judge told Henricks she didnt
want to hold a mini-trial of
Akbar and asked how he would
introduce the case to jurors.
Henricks said he planned to call a
prosecutor to discuss its basics,
but he didnt identify the prosecu-
tor. Akbar was prosecuted by Col.
Mike Mulligan, the lead prosecu-
tor in Hasans trial.
Henricks has alleged that
besides his so-called jihad duty,
Hasan was looking for ways to get
out of deploying, and he said wit-
nesses could include former class-
mates who heard him talking
about suicide bombers.

NEWYORK After years of burnishing a
reputation as one of the nations most
potent police forces, the New York Police
Department appears poised to become one
of the most closely monitored.
Afederal judge this week said the depart-
ment made thousands of racially discrimina-
tory street stops and appointed a monitor to
direct changes. And city lawmakers are
readying for a nal vote Thursday on creat-
ing an inspector general for the NYPD and
widening the legal path for pursuing claims
of police bias.
Its a one-two punch of outside tinkering
that will muddy police work, a pair of com-
plementary steps to protect civil rights or a
rash of policymaking that may end up
meaning little on the street, depending on
who gets asked. But from any perspective,
it would be the onset of a new era of over-
sight for the countrys biggest police
department, though the impacts would be
dened by particulars and politics still in
play.
The federal ruling outlines but doesnt
always detail reforms, and the city plans to
appeal it. The City Council, if it succeeds in
overriding a mayoral veto, would establish
a monitor but not select the person or spec-
ify exactly what gets investigated. And a
new mayor will take ofce next year, which
could well mean new police leadership.
The complexity, at this point, is that
there are so many moving parts, said John
Jay College of Criminal Justice professor
Eugene ODonnell, who isnt involved in
the litigation or legislation. And it doesnt
help that it became very adversarial.

States revisit mandatory
sentences for juveniles
SUFFIELD, Conn. When Nicholas
Aponte recalls the night in 1995 that sent
him to prison, he describes an immature 17-
year-old who told himself he was tough but
in reality lacked the nerve to say no to a
cousin he admired for being a troublemaker.
Sitting with a group of boys on a porch,
playing cards and drinking, the cousin said
he needed to do a robbery and asked if
Aponte wanted to tag along.
I said, OK, well do the robbery or what-
ever, Aponte said. It was spur of the
moment.
The plan failed. A 28-year-old sandwich
shop assistant manager was killed during the
robbery. Aponte was later arrested, as was
his cousin, younger brother and a friend.
Even though Aponte didnt re the gun,
prosecutors considered him the ringleader.
He was treated by the courts as an adult and
sentenced to 38 years without parole. That
means he will be 55 when hes freed.
All this time was hard to perceive, for
somebody so young, Aponte said in a prison
interview this week. Now 35, with more than
half his life spent in Connecticut prisons,
Aponte dreams of nishing his bachelors
degree, becoming a nurse and spending time
with his family, including a son who was an
infant when he was imprisoned.
Aponte is among an estimated 2,100 so-
called juvenile lifers across the country
inmates sentenced to lengthy prison terms
without parole who hope for a reprieve in
the wake of a 2012 U.S. Supreme Court rul-
ing, Miller v. Alabama.
The decision determined such sentences
are cruel and unusual punishment.

CAIRO Soldiers red their
ries in the air to keep a crowd
from attacking supporters of oust-
ed President Mohammed Morsi as
they were being taken, one by one,
out of the Al-Fath mosque in Cairo
where they had been besieged by
security forces overnight.
One man in the crowd, however,
was able to reach over the soldiers
and strike a detained protester with a
stick. Others chanted against
Morsis Muslim Brotherhood group.
The scene encapsulated the ven-
omous mood in Cairo.
The streets of Egypts capital
have become a deadly battle-
ground between Morsis support-
ers and backers of the military that
overthrew him. The crisis has sev-
ered friendships and, in some
cases, turned neighbor against
neighbor in the city of more than
18 million people.
More than 450 people have been
killed in Cairo over the past four
days, just over half the countrys
nationwide death toll during the
week of violence. Hundreds of those
victims died when Egyptian security
forces attacked two pro-Morsi sit-
ins in Cairo on Wednesday.
How events play out in Cairo
could largely determine whether
Egypt can step back from the
brink of chaos.
Over the weekend, street battles
raged throughout the metropolis,
once a stable corner of the Middle
East. Armed civilians and security
forces fought armed Morsi support-
ers and protesters. People openly
red automatic ries and pistols at
one another on main overpasses and
roads. Most residents cowered in
their homes, many staying clear of
windows and balconies.
Metro stations near protest sites
are closed, and military tanks
enforce an army-imposed state of
emergency that grants security
forces broad powers to make arrests.
Residents have locked entrances to
their apartment buildings, and
police stations and prisons have
come under attack.
The city, normally bustling at
all hours of the day and night, now
slips into an eerie quiet interrupted
at times by gunre during an 11-
hour curfew that starts at 7 p.m.
The usually gridlocked streets are
devoid of nighttime trafc.
Vigilantes and police dressed in
civilian clothes stand at
makeshift roadblocks, frisking
people without identifying them-
selves. Many brandish guns. The
Interior Ministry warned civilians
Sunday against breaking the cur-
few to man checkpoints.
Some grocery stores are running
low on merchandise, with bread
cleared from the shelves and resi-
dents stocking up on water and
canned food. Banks opened for just
three hours Sunday after being
closed for four days. Others cannot
see friends and family who live on
opposite ends of the city because
marches and protests have made road
conditions unpredictable.
For taxi driver Ahmed Hosni, the
blocked roads, violence and curfew
have choked his income. He spends
his nights instead at a civilian
checkpoint in the poor neighbor-
hood of Basateen.
Hosni had voted for Morsi, but a
year later joined the calls for his
ouster. He also took part in mass
protests last month in support of
military action against potential
terrorism by the Brotherhood. He
said he was upset by the bloodshed
that followed.
We are living off what we have
in the coming days, said the 31-
year-old, who provides for his
mother and siblings. God is with
us all these coming days.
Along major roads of the upscale
neighborhood of Mohandiseen,
apartment buildings are riddled
with bullet holes, the sidewalks
are strewn with broken glass, pub-
lic benches have been ripped out of
the ground and several cars are
smashed from last weeks ghting,
sparked by anger at police for
clearing out the sit-ins. Stores
were looted in the mayhem.

LONDON Poor families in Britain
are struggling to provide basics for
their children as the cost of living rises
faster than wages and benets, research
released by a charity Monday suggested.
The cost of raising a child during the
rst 18 years of life rose 4 percent to
148,105 pounds ($230,376) last year,
while average earnings rose 1.5 per-
cent and safety net benets rose 1 per-
cent, according to the report from the
Child Poverty Action Group.
This research paints a stark picture of
families being squeezed by rising prices
and stagnant wages, yet receiving ever-
diminishing support from the govern-
ment over the course of the last year,
said Alison Garnham, the groups chief
executive. Every parent knows its get-
ting harder to pay for the essentials
their children need, and they dont feel
like politicians see them as a priority.
The report comes as Britains coali-
tion government, elected in 2010,
imposes tough austerity measures to
reduce the nations budget deficit.
Those programs include limiting bene-
t increases to 1 percent annually for
three years, forcing many low-income
residents to pay local council tax for
the rst time, and a new fee for public
housing tenants with spare bedrooms.
Treasury chief George Osborne said
the recovery is taking longer than any-
one hoped, but says that tackling the
decit will be better for the country in
the long run despite the short term pain.

OPINION 9
Dont mess with Central Park
Editor,
After reading the Aug. 15 Daily
Journal article, San Mateos Central
Park faces redesign, I could feel my
blood pressure rising 20 points. Why
do local bureaucrats seemingly pos-
sess the incessant desire to x (i.e.,
spend a lot of taxpayer dollars on)
what isnt broken? The Parks and
Recreation Department is reportedly
so very concerned that the master
plan for Central Park has remained
unchanged for 30 years. So what?
Central Park is ne the way it is and
doesnt need a redesign. The parking
garage and tennis courts dont need to
be moved. Id be willing to bet that
the overwhelming majority of those
who use the park on a regular basis
are happy with Central Park and its
historical layout. Instead of worry-
ing about the safety and accessibili-
ty guidelines of the childrens play-
ground, why not give back to these
deprived kids the jungle gyms, merry-
go-rounds and slides that were
enjoyed by their parents years ago at
Central Park? Of course, grossly
overprotective city bureaucrats
removed them.
Instead of wasting 300,000 hard-
earned tax dollars on a Central Park
master plan update, I have no doubt a
number of San Mateans can point out
some longstanding potholes on their
streets that need lling. Apart from

Measure A money for what?
Editor,
OK, I want to make sure I have this
right. Measure A, the half-cent
increase is San Mateo Countys sales
tax was passed in November by coun-
ty voters to bring in an estimated $60
million a year in additional revenue.
Despite not having a designated pur-
pose, our ofcials stated the uses of
the money could be for things like
child abuse prevention, re preven-
tion, park operations and to protect
county services from budget cuts. All
these things seemed like issues we
could all get behind and like the good
citizens you all are, decided to tax
yourselves to pay for them. Full dis-
closure, I voted against measure A.
Last week we nd out that our coun-
ty supervisors have decided to use
$50 million of that money to fund
pensions of our county public
employees. I dont recall that being
one of the uses you voted for when
measure Awas passed. Another $10
million of Measure Amoney will be
given to Seton Medical Center, a pri-
vately run hospital. Keep in mind the
campaign for Measure Awas largely
funded by the Daughters of Charity
Health System who run Seton Medical
Center.
So I ask my fellow county voters, if
you knew that the lion share of
Measure Amoney was going to pay
down the huge unfunded liability of
our countys public employee pen-
sion and that the rest is going to a
privately run hospital, would you
have voted yes on Measure A? Just
curious.

Hillary Clinton 2016
presidential candidate?
Editor,
The media silence is deafening
around Hillary Clintons activities
with companies that have been doing
business with Iran and were ned $1
billion last year. Mrs. Clinton start-
ed, founded, funded, ran and provided
access to the wealth, creating a
machine in Washington. Perhaps it is
time to let your readers know about
this so they do some research, get
some personal knowledge and vote
accordingly come 2016 because she
will be on the ticket.

The Fresno Bee
F
or decades, California lawmak-
ers have imposed ever tighter
restrictions on logging, farm-
ing, and other activities that can foul
water and damage the environment.
But they arent showing the same
aggressiveness about halting damage
being done by marijuana farmers.
That timidity needs to end.
Proponents of medical marijuana
and marijuana legalization want their
harvest to be treated like other com-
mercial products. However, too often
they ignore the most basic rules that
other farmers follow.
Too many growers overuse fertiliz-
ers and pesticides, and spill the toxic
chemicals into waterways.
Increasingly, they denude mountain-
sides so they can grow their quasi-
legal crops in the fullest sun, with no
concern about erosion.
Attorney General Kamala Harris,
always interested in combating crime
against the environment, should use
her position to bring civil suits
against growers who would reap prof-
its at the expense of the land.
Senate President Pro Tem Darrell
Steinberg is carrying legislation to
regulate marijuana dispensaries. If he
wants to further legitimize marijuana,
he should consider amendments to
ensure that further cultivation doesnt
threaten water quality or the environ-
ment.
The state has signicant authority
over timber harvests. Marijuana
growers avoid regulation that applies
to lumber companies by not selling
the trees they fell as they clear forest-
land for their farms. That needs to
change.
In June, the Department of Pesticide
Regulation found residue of an illegal
pesticide on strawberries and ordered
the Santa Cruz County grower to
destroy the crop and pull berries off
store shelves. Perhaps pesticide regu-
lators should check for pesticide
residue on marijuana sold as medicine
in dispensaries, and act accordingly.
The Department of Pesticide
Regulation is proposing to restrict
some of the most problematic roden-
ticides used by marijuana growers.
Second-generation anticoagulant
rodenticides kill mice and rats by
causing them to hemorrhage. But the
products also kill pet dogs and cats,
and wildlife including endangered
species that eat the pesticide or ani-
mals that already have eaten it. The
time to comment about the proposed
regulation will end on Sept. 3. The
department cannot act fast enough.
Californias regional water quality
control boards clearly have a role.
They can issue nes for pollution and
erosion that fouls waterways.
However, as Pamela Creedon, execu-
tive director of the Central Valley
board recently noted, water board
investigators arent rst-responders.
While no one should blame envi-
ronmental regulators for not wanting
to confront potentially armed and
dangerous marijuana growers, there
are ways inspectors can do their jobs.
They could request assistance from
Attorney General Harris or sheriffs
departments. The worst message to
send is there will be no penalty for
disregarding environmental laws.
Pot growers must obey environmental laws
Burlingames
class of 1949
I
n those post-World War II years, 93 percent of the stu-
dents at Burlingame High School were college prep. In
the 1949 class of 320, for example, 27 were admitted to
Stanford and 27 to UC Berkeley.
Four of those 49 graduates have remained close friends
even though they have pursued different but rewarding careers.
Mary Massey, Barbara Rosberg and Win Grifth, lived within
eight blocks of each other,
attended McKinley
Elementary School and then
Burlingame High School
where they were joined by
Peter Grothe.
Rosbergs father, Carl,
immigrated from Sweden in
1898 when he was 25. He
started Peninsula Auto
Rebuild in San Mateo in
1928. The building still
stands on San Mateo Drive.
After World War II, he and a
friend started Town and
Country builders of custom
homes. Mary Masseys
father was a newspaper man and managing editor of the San
Francisco News. San Francisco enjoyed four newspapers in
those years two morning papers, the Chronicle and the
Examiner; and two afternoon papers, the News and the Call-
Bulletin. When the News folded along with most afternoon
dailies, he became editor of newspapers in the Richland,
Hanford area of Washington state.
Meanwhile, his daughter Mary Massey followed in his
career footsteps. She worked for a variety of local papers
including the Palo Alto Times, the Times-Tribune and the San
Francisco Chronicle. One of her articles was nominated for a
Pulitzer Prize. Her friend Barbara Rosberg took a different
path. She started off as a corporate home economist, then
taught home economics in East Bay schools for 32 years.
When she retired she became a U.S. customs agent. Today,
she runs an antiques and collectibles business.
Win Grifths became a journalist, wrote several books
including Humphrey: ACandid Biography and articles for
the New York Times magazine but spent a good part of his
career as a political press aide. His bosses included U.S. sena-
tor and vice president Hubert Humphrey an unsuccessful candi-
date for U.S. president) and Californias Superintendent of
Instruction Wilson Riles.
In college, Peter Grothe was a stringer for the Chronicles
green pages. He wrote Great Moments in Stanford Sports
while at the same time nishing a doctorate in political sci-
ence. He served as a foreign relations adviser to Sen.
Humphrey. At Humphreys request, Grothe drafted the bill that
created a program which ultimately became known as the
Peace Corps under President John F. Kennedy. Grothe was
among the rst group to serve in Ethiopia. After leaving the
Peace Corps, Grothe taught at San Jose State University,
Odense University in Denmark and the State University of
New York, Stony Brook. In recent years, he was an adjunct
professor at the Graduate School of International Policy
Studies at the Monterey Institute of International Studies. In
addition to teaching and mentoring, he nancially helped 145
international and minority students pursue their education.
Grothe died last year but the other three are still in touch and
frequently share fond memories of their high school years.

Theres a place for peaceful reection away from busy
Burlingames bustle just below but on the Kohl Mansions
40-acre estate. While Mercy High School, occasional wed-
dings and Music at Kohl Mansion locate at the historic man-
sion, two dozen members of the Sisters of Mercy live at
Mercy Center. This is a quiet place on beautiful grounds even
though it also serves as a conference center and hosts groups
from around the world. Its location near SFO and reasonable
rates have attracted conferences from Japan, Australia, New
Zealand, the United Kingdom and the Philippines. The rate is
$125 a night for modest accommodations (shared bathroom)
but also includes meals and access to the centers meeting
rooms.

Apopular event, open to the public, is Taize which origi-
nated in a French village and has spread throughout the world.
At Mercy Center, Taize is celebrated the rst Friday of every
month in a candlelit chapel. The service includes quiet chants,
prayers and other musical offerings.

Charles Frederick Kohl (Freddie) built the existing mansion
of 53 rooms for his second wife. Before that, he lived with
his family in a 40-acre estate in central San Mateo, now the
site of Central Park. Freddie was the ultimate playboy and
spent his time fox hunting and polo playing when he was not
hosting and attending parties. After his wife left him, he
moved to San Francisco and hired caretakers for The Oaks, as
the mansion was called. In 1924, the Oaks was sold to the
Sisters of Mercy, where it remains one of Burlingames nest
pieces of real estate but no longer home to wild parties.

BUSINESS 10
NEWYORK U.S. regulators are look-
ing into whether JPMorgan Chase hired
the children of Chinese officials to help it
boost its business in China, The New York
Times reported.
The Times said Sunday details of the civil
investigation were in a confidential U.S.
government document that it saw.
According to the document, the anti-
bribery unit of the Securities and Exchange
Commission asked JPMorgan for records
about some of the banks hires in China.
According to the Times, the document
shows that the bank hired the son of a for-
mer Chinese banking regulator who is now
chairman of the China Everbright Group, a
state-controlled financial conglomerate.
The paper reported that after the chair-
mans son joined the bank, JPMorgan won
several assignments from Everbright.
JPMorgans Hong Kong office also
hired the daughter of a Chinese railway
official. The official was later detained on
accusations of taking cash bribes in
exchange for handing out government
contracts, the Times reported, citing the
U.S. document and public records.
The woman came to JPMorgan at the
time that The China Railway Group was in
the process of picking JPMorgan to
advise it on its plans to go public.
JPMorgan helped China Railway raise
more than $5 billion when it went public
in 2007.
Information sought by the SEC included
documents sufficient to identify all per-
sons involved in the decision to hire her,
the Times reported.
SEC spokesman Myron Marlin declined
to comment.
JPMorgan referred to the investigation in
a securities ling earlier this month. It said
the SECs enforcement division is seeking
information about the banks employment
of some people in Hong Kong and its busi-
ness relationships with some clients, but
didnt give any other details.
On Sunday, JPMorgan issued a statement
saying We publicly disclosed this matter
in our 10-Q filing on Aug. 7, and are fully
cooperating with regulators. A spokes-
woman for the New York bank declined to
comment further.
The Times report said its common for
global companies to hire the children of
Chinese politicians, but that its unusual
for a company to hire the children of offi-
cials of state-controlled companies.
The government document did not defin-
itively link JPMorgan hiring to its abili-
ty to win business, or suggest that the
employees were unqualified, the Times
reported. It also noted that theres nothing
illegal about hiring well-connected peo-
ple, as long as theyre qualified for the
j ob.
JPMorgan investigated for China hiring

SCHAGHTICOKE, N.Y.
Justine and Brian Denison say they
adhere to all the growing practices
required for organic certication,
yet if they label their beans and
tomatoes organic at the farmers
market, they could face fed-
eral charges and
$20,000 or more in
nes.
Because the
Denisons chose not
to seek organic certi-
cation by the U.S.
Department of
Agriculture, the Denison
Farm, which has been under
organic management for more than
20 years, is banned from using that
term. So they and hundreds of other
small direct-marketing farms
across the country have adopted an
alternative label: Certified
Naturally Grown.
Started by a group of organic
farmers in New Yorks mid-Hudson
Valley as a backlash against federal
takeover of the organic program in
2002, Certied Naturally Grown
has expanded over the past decade
to include more than 700 farms in
47 states, executive director Alice
Varon said.
Certied Naturally Grown is tai-
lored for direct-market farmers pro-
ducing food without any synthetic
chemicals specifically for their
local communities, Varon said.
Its a particular niche of the agri-
cultural world. Its not in direct
competition with the national
organic program.
Many small farmers pre-
viously certied organic
by an independent
organization have
declined to participate
in the federal program.
They voice a variety of
objections: extensive
record-keeping require-
ments; fees that can amount
to 6 percent of a small farms gross
sales; and philosophical objec-
tions to joining a monolithic gov-
ernment-run program that also cer-
ties huge operations that ship
produce across the country.
We have noticed over time that
more and more farmers often,
younger farmers who appear to
be following organic practices
dont bother to get certied, said
Jack Kittredge, co-owner of a certi-
ed organic farm in Barre, Mass.,
and editor of The Natural Farmer,
journal of the Northeast Organic
Farming Association. My major
concern is that sometimes, unless
youre certied youre not even
aware of some of the problems,
such as calling livestock organic
even though the animals eat feed
containing genetically modified
crops.
Atina Difey, an organic farming
consultant and author in
Farmington, Minn., said alterna-
tive labels create confusion for cus-
tomers. She said there are only
about 13,000 USDA certified
organic farms out of 2.2 million
farms, and more organic farms are
needed to bolster the movements
impact on national farm policy.
When farms have an alternative
certication, theyre not counted,
she said.
Sam Jones, spokesman for
USDAs organic certication pro-
gram, said the agency doesnt com-
ment on guidelines other than its
own and doesnt take a position on
whether alternative labels cause
confusion. But he noted that grow-
ers are required by law to get federal
certication if they want to sell
their product as organic. Jones said
USDA has a new program called
Sound and Sensible, aimed at
reducing paperwork and other bur-
densome aspects of certication.
Ryan Voilland, co-owner of the
certied organic Red Fire Farm in
Granby, Mass., said the certica-
tion fees and paperwork arent a
big burden. He grows 100 acres of
produce and has gross sales of
about $2 million, and pays $2,000
a year for certication, of which
$750 is returned in a federal rebate
program. The premium price for
organic produce far outweighs the
fee, he said.
But farmers who opt for labels
like Certied Naturally Grown and
The Farmers Pledge, sponsored by
the Northeast Organic Farming
Association of New York, say
theres room for all the labels;
some farms even boast several
alternative labels in addition to
USDAorganic.
The Farmers Pledge is a better
program for direct-sales farmers
like me, who find the national
organic program too burdensome,
said Mark Dunau, who farms ve
acres in the Delaware County town
of Hancock.
About 130 farmers in New York
and Connecticut have signed The
Farmers Pledge, a commitment to a
broad set of farming principles
that address labor issues, organic
production practices, community
values and marketing.
Farmers who participate in
Certied Naturally Grown rely on
peer inspection by other farmers
to ensure they follow organic prac-
tices, such as avoiding synthetic
pesticides and fertilizers and using
cover crops and rotation for
healthy soil. While critics say
peer review rather than USDA-cer-
tied inspectors could lead to cut-
ting corners, Varon said thats
unlikely.
Its a different mindset that peo-
ple bring to Certified Naturally
Grown, Varon said. They believe
in farming in harmony with nature
as an expression of their values.
Its not something they do to get a
premium in the marketplace.
Denison agrees. She and her hus-
band operated a conventional farm
in Maine before they bought the
164-acre farm in Schaghticoke, 20
miles northeast of Albany, in
2005. They switched to organic
farming because they and their two
daughters had developed illnesses
they believed were caused by expo-
sure to agricultural chemicals.
We were one sick family,
Denison said. We were close to 50
when we bought this farm, but we
were ready to change course and
make a commitment to Certied
Naturally Grown.
Naturally Grown: An alternative label to organic
CARSON CITY, Nev. The chair-
man of the Nevada Senate Judiciary
Committee is asking the drug compa-
ny that makes OxyContin to turn over
information about Nevada doctors sus-
pected of overprescribing the powerful
pain medication.
Sen. Tick Segerblom, D-Las Vegas,
wrote a letter to the president of the
drugmaker Purdue Pharma LP on
Friday, saying the company has an
ethical duty to provide the informa-
tion to the Nevada Board of Medical
Examiners.
I have been concerned for some
time about the mounting death toll
related to certain addictive drugs, such
as OxyContin, he wrote in the letter
rst reported by the Las Vegas Review-
Journal (http://bit.ly/15OYsbo ).
Segerblom made the request days
after two California lawmakers did the
same based on a Los Angeles Times
article that said the company has a
database of 1,800 doctors who showed
signs of dangerous prescribing but has
referred only 154 cases to authorities
since 2002.
I am dismayed by the ndings of
the Los Angeles Times investigation
that revealed that although Purdue
Pharma has compiled a database of
hundreds of doctors who are suspected
of recklessly prescribing OxyContin,
it has been unwilling to alert authori-
ties in each state about its ndings,
he said. I am also requesting that the
criteria utilized by Purdue Pharma in
determining signs of reckless/danger-
ous prescribing of this narcotic be
sent, as well.

Crews rush to clean up former California nuke lab
SIMI VALLEY The sun was barely up at a former Cold
War rocket test site when crews in hard hats, neon vests and
steel-toe boots collected jars of dirt as part of a massive
effort to clean up from a partial nuclear meltdown a half cen-
tury ago.
Parties that inherited the toxic mess face a 2017 deadline
to restore the sprawling hilltop complex on the outskirts
of Los Angeles to its condition before chemical and
radioactive wastes leached into the soil and groundwater.
For residents living downhill from the Santa Susana Field
Laboratory, it would seem like a conclusion to a protracted
ght. But many remain dissatised that a large portion of
the land wont be cleaned to the highest standards.
I dont care how long it takes, I just want it cleaned,
said 62-year-old Holly Huff, whose family moved into the
area a month before the 1959 nuclear accident.
The road to decontamination has been long and costly, as
winding as the two-lane path to the lab entrance 30 miles
northwest of downtown LA. Decades in the works, the
cleanup has been complicated by the web of owners and
responsible parties at the nearly 2,900-acre site.

By John Wawrow
SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa.
Offense is what led Chula Vista,
Calif., to the Little League World
Series, and the West champions
nally put their big bats on dis-
play Sunday.
Jake Espinoza, Micah Pietila-
Wiggs, Michael Gaines and Grant
Holman all homered in a mercy
rule-shortened 15-3 victory over
Newark, Del.
Holman was the one to cap an
eight-run fourth inning, by hit-
ting the rst pitch he faced over
the fence in center for a game-end-
ing grand slam.
Now thats more like it, Chula
Vista manager Rick Tibbett said,
referring to a team that average 11
runs in six games to clinch the
West championship after beating
Belmont-Redwood Shores.
Thats what we do best,
Tibbett said, whose team needed
an extra inning to pull out a 3-0
victory over Grosse Pointe,
Mich., in the series opener. And
Tibbett certainly wasnt bothered
Sunday, when his team trailed 2-0
after the top of the rst inning.
Yeah, two runs is not going to
keep us down. It just doesnt,
Tibbett said. Normally, we score
8-10 runs a game. It didnt bother
us one bit.
Chula Vista (2-0) advanced to
play Westport, Conn. (2-0), on
Wednesday. The winner of that
game advances to play in the U.S.
bracket nal. Westport hung on
for a 9-7 win over Sammamish,
Wash., earlier in the day.
Newarks Jack Hardcastle had a
two-run double and Brandon
Sengphachanh had a two-out
home run in the fourth for Newark.
The Mid-Atlantic champions (1-1)
will face Nashville, Tenn., in a
U.S. losers bracket game
Monday.
In an International game,
Mexico improved to 2-0 with a
13-0 four-inning win over
Aguadulce, Panama, (1-1).
Espinoza hit a two-run homer in
the rst to tie it. Pietila-Wiggs hit
a three-run shot in the second
inning. Gaines hit a solo home
run as part of a two-run third.

Melvin shufed the Athletics bat-
ting order and got the type of pro-
duction he was looking for from
the top of the lineup.
Chris Young and Alberto
Callaspo, hitting in the No. 6 and
8 spots, provided a nice boost as
well.
Young and Callaspo homered in
the fth inning and Oakland beat
the Cleveland Indians 7-3 on
Sunday.
Thats always nice when you
get contributions all over,
Melvin said. We feel like we have
just as good a chance to score
down in the lineup as we do up in
the lineup.
Jed Lowrie, batting leadoff for
only the third time this season,
had two hits and scored twice for
Oakland. Josh Donaldson drove in
three runs as the As pulled within a
half-game of AL West-leading
Texas.
One day after being held to a sea-
son-low three hits in a 7-1 loss to
the Indians, the As jumped on
Cleveland starter Scott Kazmir
early.

MIAMI After hitting two dou-
bles and a triple in Fridays game,
Hunter Pence admitted he was frus-
trated that he hadnt homered in
over a month.
Pence broke through with a
home run in his rst at-bat Sunday,
and drove in three runs for the San
Francisco Giants in a 6-5 loss to
the Miami Marlins.
There were a lot of big hits, but
at the end of the day we didnt get
the win, Pence said. It was a
tough loss.
It was his rst home run since
July 13 at San Diego, a span of
111 at-bats. He has 15 this sea-
son.
Im sure it was a little bit of a
load off his mind hitting that one
today, Giants manager Bruce
Bochy said. He had a good at-bat,
took a good swing and certainly
smoked that one.
Despite the longball drought,
Pence is batting .328 (22 for 67)
with seven doubles, three triples,
one home run and 13 RBIs in
August.

MOSCOW Usain Bolt stum-
bled on the track, even almost fell
down.
Dont worry, everybody, it was-

No, this near-tumble happened
in the middle of his celebratory
dance, when a barefooted Bolt
hammed it up after winning a third

world championships.
He even tossed his spikes into
the crowd.
And why not? He certainly didnt
need them anymore. His work was
nished.
In the very last race of the cham-
pionships Sunday, Bolt grabbed
the gold-colored baton for his
anchor leg of the 4x100-meter
relay and churned toward the nish
line, hufng and pufng to gener-
ate more speed.
Not that he needed it.
Justin Gatlin couldnt catch
him. The rest of the eld couldnt
catch him, either. Very few can

the mound at Volunteer Stadium was too
slick, Newark manager John Ludman would-
nt blame that on the games outcome.
I dont want to make excuses, Ludman
said. They smoked us and thats the bot-
tom line.
That doesnt mean there wasnt a problem
with the mound. And Tibbett also com-
plained of it being slick, and forcing starter
Nick Mora to adjust his motion.
Ludman was forced to pull his starter,
Hardcastle. He said, he was advised by a
trainer that by slipping on his plant foot,
Hardcastle was putting pressure on his
Achilles tendon.
In the earlier game Westport, Conn.,
nearly squandered a 7-0 lead before Alex
Reiner shined in relief to preserve the 9-7
win over Sammamish, Wash.
After the Northwest champions scored
twice in the fourth inning and four more
times in the fth, Reiner stopped a sixth-
inning threat by striking out Jack Rud to
end the game and stranding two base-run-
ners.
Just a big sigh of relief knowing we got
the game and are going to the U.S. semi-
nal, Reiner said.
Westport appeared in full control build-
ing a 9-2 lead in the fourth inning. Thats
when manager Tim Rogers elected to rest
starter Harry Azadian.
If you want to make a run at the tourna-
ment, you have to manage your pitching,
Rogers said. We knew we werent going to
shut them out. We didnt pitch with the
accuracy we normally do.
The move nearly back-red.
The last three innings felt like it took
four hours, Rogers said. It was painful.
Sammamish had pitching troubles of its
own early, in having to overcome the loss
of ace Jacob Dahlstrom. He sustained a deep
bruise and did not return after a line drive
struck him in the right knee in the second
inning.

for a long time that can be frustrating, but it
doesnt change the constant of being ready
for the next at-bat and the next at-bat after
that and trusting that eventually it will hap-
pen, Pence said.
Jeff Mathis hit an early home run, then
lined a tiebreaking double in the eighth
inning that bounced off Giants center elder
Andres Torres to help lift the Marlins.
You denitely a little bit of luck there
today for us, Marlins manager Mike
Redmond said. We scored a couple a couple
runs on some wild hops and a wild pitch, but
hey well take it.
It was 5-all in a back-and-forth game when
Ed Lucas led off the eighth with a single
against Sandy Rosario (3-1). With one out,
Mathis hit a liner to left-center and the ball
dropped in front of Torres dive and caromed
off him.
When I was getting ready to dive, my
foot kind of got stuck in the ground and I
missed the ball, Torres said. It just got
away from me and kept rolling.
Chad Qualls (4-1) pitched 1 1-3 scoreless
innings and Steve Cishek worked the ninth
for his 27th save in 29 chances.
Hector Sanchez singled with one out in
the ninth before Buster Posey grounded into
a game-ending double play.
Brandon Crawford also hit a home run and
Gregor Blanco had three hits for the Giants.
Miami starter Tom Koehler allowed three
runs and seven hits in ve innings.
Crawford led off the seventh a home run
against Mike Dunn, tying it at 4. Sanchez
hit a go-ahead double later in the inning that
put the Giants ahead.
Guillermo Moscoso, who struck out the
side in the sixth, allowed an RBI double by
Donovan Solano in the seventh to tie game
at 5.
After Pences homer, Mathis hit a solo
home run in the third off Madison
Bumgarner to cut the Marlins decit to 2-1.
Back-to-back RBI singles by Lucas and
Adeiny Hechavarria in the fourth gave
Miami a 3-2 lead.
GIANTS
said Bolt, whose team nished in a world-
leading time of 37.36 seconds. Continue
dominating.
Oh, he did that all right, winning gold in
the 100, gold in the 200 and even more gold
in the relay. With that, Bolt became the most
decorated athlete in world championship
history with eight golds and two silvers,
moving past Carl Lewis (8 golds, 1 silver, 1
bronze) and Michael Johnson (8 golds).
Its not just about the talent, its about
rising to the occasion. He understands what
that means, said Gatlin, who anchored the
U.S. to a silver medal despite momentarily
stepping outside his lane. That takes you
up another level. To be able to rise to the
occasion when an entire stadium full of peo-
ple are either rooting for you or want to see
you fail and youre able to hold it together,
that takes talent.
Overshadowed by Bolt mania was the per-
formance of teammate Shelly-Ann Fraser-
Pryce, who also won three sprinting events.
She nished it off by breaking away from the
field in the 4x100, easily beating an
American squad that struggled to get the
baton around again.
Originally finishing third after a bad
exchange, the Americans were later bumped
up to second after France was disqualied.
Still, the Jamaicans went 6-0 in the
sprints against the U.S. in Moscow. These
days, the proud sprinting nation owns this
rivalry.
As a country, we should be elated,
Fraser-Pryce said.
As a nation, the Americans may be search-
ing for some answers. Sure, the United
States won an impressive 25 medals. But
only six of them were gold as Russia edged
them with seven, making it the rst time the
U.S. failed to at least tie for the gold-medal
lead since the rst world championships in
Helsinki 30 years ago.
Yeah, but look at how many young ath-
letes we have on our team, Gatlin said.
Once again, the relays caused problems for
the Americans.
First, a botched exchange in the womens
race. Then, a stumble by Gatlin in the mens
competition. The night before, a shaky
exchange in the womens 4x400 nal.
BOLT
Lowrie singled and scored in the rst,
then doubled and scored in the second.
Derek Norris added two hits and reached
base four times while Donaldson had a pair
of RBI singles and also drove in a run on a
groundout in the rst.
Thats when were at our best, when we
have equal parts and we can trust everybody
up and down the lineup, Lowrie said.
Thats been our key offensively. I dont
think Im a prototypical leadoff hitter but I
get on base a lot.
Young hit his 11th home run off Kazmir
(7-6) to break a 3-all tie in the fth. Three
pitches later, Callaspo followed with his
sixth homer and rst since being acquired
from the Los Angeles Angels in late July.
Ryan Raburn homered for Cleveland,
which has lost six of its past seven in
Oakland. The Indians dropped seven games
behind Detroit in the Central and fell 4 1/2
games behind the As in the ALwild card race.
Its go time, said second baseman
Jason Kipnis, who had two of Clevelands
nine hits. We dont have time to sit around
and fell sorry for ourselves about losing
two of three here. Its time to take care of
business.
Dan Otero (2-0) retired ve batters for the
win in relief of starter Tommy Milone.
Grant Balfour pitched the ninth.
Kazmir had a rough afternoon while
pitching on eight days rest. The left-han-
der had been moved back after saying he had
a dead arm after his previous start.
Kazmir gave up a pair of two-out scoring
hits in the rst two innings. He was hit by
Josh Reddicks liner that ricocheted off him
and went into right eld in the third.
Ahead 5-3, Oakland got a boost when left
fielder Yoenis Cespedes threw out Nick
Swisher at second base in the seventh when
he tried to extend a single. Center elder
Young made a stellar play to rob Michael
Brantley of extra bases in the eighth.
Raburn homered in the second, hitting a
towering solo shot that bounced high off
the wall beyond the center eld fence.
Called up from Triple-A Sacramento
before the game, Milone ran into trouble in
the third following Callaspos throwing
error at third base.
Callaspo made up for the gaffe when he
followed Youngs solo home run in the fth
with his blast to left.

SAN FRANCISCO The Louis
Vuitton Cup nals have been more about
survival than sailing.
Emirates Team New Zealand fell out of
the second race of the series because of a
mechanical problem Sunday, handing
Italys Luna Rossa a victory that evened
the nals at one apiece.
After a nosedive sent two men tum-
bling overboard during its opening win,
Emirates sailed smoothly at the start of
the second day. The Kiwis pushed ahead
by about 400 meters before the electron-
ic system that controls the hydraulics
malfunctioned near the end of the third
leg of the ve-leg race on foggy San
Francisco Bay.
Devastated, Emirates tactician Ray
Davies said. That was one we had in the
bank.
For the second straight day, ofcials
called off the second race due to strong
wind. Two makeup races will be held
Monday, previously a scheduled day off,
if conditions permit.
The winner of the best-of-13 series
will face Oracle Team USA in the 34th
Americas Cup starting Sept. 7.
Most of the maneuvering has been on
the mechanical side of these high-per-
formance 72-foot catamarans so far.
Both teams had to make overnight
repairs following an opening day of
damage and drama.
Emirates tore the trampoline tarp in
the center of its boat when skipper Dean
Barker put the hulls deep in the water try-
ing to make a sharp turn at high speeds
and in windy conditions Saturday. The
frightening scene brought back chilling
memories of when British sailor Andrew
Bart Simpson died in the capsize of
Swedish Team Artemis Racings rst
boat during a training run May 9.
The Kiwis still won the opener
because the Italians dropped out just sec-
onds into the race after struggling to
repair a new lifting system around their
right daggerboard.
Earlier Sunday morning, the left rudder
of one Oracles boats broke during a
practice competition between its crews.
General manager Grant Simmer said the
catamaran, skippered by Ben Ainslie,
hooked a ferry demarcation buoy trying
to avoid a small yacht Saturday and the
problem resurfaced during a prestart
maneuver Sunday.
Even Luna Rossas win came with col-
lateral damage. The Italian catamaran
had a few cracks in the rib of its wing.
The crew quickly repaired the cracks, and
skipper Max Sirena said they wouldve
raced had there been a second competi-
tion.
I think the main issue here is to do
two races a day. Theyre pretty painful
for these boats, Sirena said. Theyre
pretty fragile boats. And probably, at
the moment, not built to do two races a
day.
Regatta director Iain Murray expected
a slightly calmer wind but a stronger cur-
rent Sunday, giving the already chal-
lenging conditions another twist.
Members of both teams insist they still
prefer the afternoon start times, when
the wind is often stronger and so is the
risk of a wash out.
While the sun shined at the nish line
between Alcatraz Island and the San
Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge, thick
fog shrouded the start near the Golden
Gate Bridge.
Luna Rossa beats hobbled Emirates
REUTERS
Luna Rossa Challenge is seen after they won the second race of their Louis Vuitton Cup challenger series yacht race against
Team Emirates New Zealand in San Francisco Sunday.
Dodgers lose to the
Phillies 3-2, ending
10-game win streak
PHILADELPHIA Hanley Ramirez and the Los Angeles
Dodgers are not about to wallow over one loss. Theyll just
try to start a new winning streak Monday.
Carlos Ruiz had four hits and the Philadelphia Phillies
beneted from two ninth-inning errors by Ramirez at
shortstop to beat the Dodgers 3-2 on Sunday, giving inter-
im manager Ryne Sandberg his rst victory and ending Los
Angeles 10-game winning streak.
Its tough to explain, Ramirez said. We dont think
about negative stuff. We just move on. Its denitely
tough, but games like this will happen.
Andre Ethier homered for the Dodgers, who have lost just
nine of their last 51 games.
Brandon League (6-4) relieved Paco Rodriguez with one
out in the ninth and nobody on. After Casper Wells reached
on Ramirezs throwing error, Ruiz singled to right to put
runners on rst and third.
League intentionally walked pinch-hitter Jimmy Rollins
to load the bases for pinch-hitter Michael Young. He
grounded sharply to Ramirez, who bobbled a potential dou-
ble-play ball as Wells scored to end the Dodgers streak of
12 straight victories in one-run games.

Leading local news coverage on the Peninsula
By Paul Larson
MILLBRAE
Have you ever
attended a funeral
or memorial service
and felt ill-at-ease,
uncomfortable or
awkward when
talking to the family
of the deceased? Have you ever stumbled
through your words and condolences
because you just didnt know what to say or
how to say it? Have you even decided to not
approach the family for fear of saying the
wrong thing or making a fool of yourself? If
so you are not alone. Many people in this
situation want to provide some kind of
comfort to the immediate family, but just
dont have the verbal tools to do so in an
assuring manner.
Learning Funeral Etiquette can be
useful. Using the right words at the right
time is an appropriate way to show that you
care, and in situations like this can be of
great help when provided correctly.
Standard condolences such as I am sorry
for your loss have become routine and
generic. A personalized phrase can be
welcomed such as John touched many
lives or I will miss John. DO NOT ask
the cause of death, offer advice or make
comments that would diminish the
importance of the loss such as Oh, youre
young and can marry again.
Other ways to demonstrate your support
include: 1. Listening. The family may feel
the need to express their anxiety, and giving
them that opportunity can be therapeutic; 2.
An embrace. This can show that you care
without the need for words; 3. Offering your
services. This shows the family that you are
willing to give extra time for them: Please
let me know if there is anything I can do to
help (be prepared to act if needed).
Even if you dont feel confident in
approaching the family there are other ways
to show that you care: 1. Attending the
funeral and signing the Memorial Book will
show the family that you took the time to be
there in support; 2. Dressing appropriately
for the funeral will demonstrate your efforts
to prepare for this special occasion (dark
colors are no longer a requisite for funerals,
but dressing in a coat, tie, dress or other
attire that youd wear to any special event
are considered a way of showing you care);
3. In certain cases friends are invited to
stand up and offer BRIEF personal feelings.
Prior to the funeral write a few key notes
and reflections which will help you organize
your thoughts. Even if there is no
opportunity to speak before a group you
may have a chance to offer your thoughts to
the family following the ceremony; 4. A
personalized card or note will help you
arrange your words better and can be kept
by the family. If you dont have their
mailing address you can send your envelope
to the funeral home and they will forward it
to the next of kin; 5. Providing flowers is a
long time tradition, or making a charitable
donation in the deceaseds memory will give
the family a strong sense of your regards; 6.
If appropriate a brief phone call can show
your immediate concern, but generally this
should be avoided to give the family the
privacy they may need.
If you ever wish to discuss cremation,
funeral matters or want to make pre-
planning arrangements please feel free to
call me and my staff at the CHAPEL OF
THE HIGHLANDS in Millbrae at (650)
588-5116 and we will be happy to guide you
in a fair and helpful manner. For more info

BROOKLYN, Mich. Joey
Logano gave Ford a Sprint Cup
sweep in Michigan and enabled
team owner Roger Penske to cele-
brate a victory in his home state.
Now Logano can start to envi-
sion a happy nish to what has
been an eventful season for the
23-year-old driver.
Were close, were close,
Logano said. What a great place
to win what a great time to win,
being in Fords backyard.
Logano boosted his chances of
reaching the Chase for the Sprint
Cup, winning for the rst time
this season in a fuel-mileage race
at Michigan International
Speedway on Sunday.
Logano and Kevin Harvick both
breezed past Mark Martin with just
over three laps to go in the 400-
mile, 200-lap
race. Martin had
been trying to
stretch fuel, but
when he fal-
tered, Logano
was able to hold
off Harvick.
The win put
Logano in 13th
place in the
standings. Hes seven points
behind Martin Truex Jr. for the
second wild card.
Its been an up-and-down year
for Logano. He and teammate Brad
Keselowski were docked 25 points
each after NASCAR inspectors
conscated parts from the rear sus-
pensions of their cars before the
April 13 race at Texas.
More recently, Logano has had
to recover from back-to-back
40th-place showings at Daytona
and Loudon, but hes now right in
the middle of a wild race for the
nal Chase spots.
A roller coaster, to say the
least, Logano said. Weve just
got to keep that momentum
going. It just goes to show, as
long as nothing goes wrong
knock on wood weve been
pretty good. Weve had some good
speed in our cars.
Everything went pretty much
according to plan at Michigan.
Logano won the pole Friday and
took Sundays race by a second
over Harvick, who is safely in
fourth place in the standings.
I was very pleased with the
day, Harvick said. Its just going
to come down to getting on a hot
streak over 10 weeks and not mak-
ing any mistakes.
There are three races left before
the Chase, and the jockeying for
the nal spots is just as muddled as
it was before Sundays race.
Keselowski, the defending cham-
pion, is still in eighth place with
667 points, but Kurt Busch is now
only two points behind him after a
third-place showing Sunday.
Greg Biffle (663) is in 10th
place. Kasey Kahne (659) and
Truex (653) are currently in line to
be the wild cards, but Logano
closed a lot of ground.
Points leader Jimmie Johnson
lasted less than 60 laps Sunday
before engine trouble knocked
him out. He still has a 41-point
lead over Clint Bowyer.
Bife nished ninth after win-
ning the previous two Cup races at
Michigan. His victory in June was
the 1,000th for Ford Motor
Company across NASCARs three
national series Cup,
Nationwide and Truck.
Bife drives for Roush Fenway
Racing. This time, it was Penskes
turn to celebrate.
I go back about 30 years here at
the track this is probably one
of the biggest wins, Penske said.
I say its my home state, its my
home track, and Detroits my
city.
It was the third Cup win of
Loganos career, and it came after
he posted the ninth-fastest pole-
winning speed in NASCAR histo-
ry during Fridays qualifying.
Johnson, Kyle Busch and Dale
Earnhardt Jr. were among the big
names to have problems, but the
race was a clean one for Logano in
his No. 22 Ford. He was battling
Kurt Busch for the lead at the very
start and needed only to outlast
Harvick at the end.
Sundays race began with 10 of
the rst 17 laps under caution.
There were nine cautions in all,
and Logano and Kurt Busch led for
94 of the 200 laps nearly half
the race.
Logano holds off Harvick for crucial Michigan win
By Joe Kay
CINCINNATI Rafael Nadal
extended his sizzling summer with a
rst-time title. One set away from her
own breakthrough, No. 1 Serena
Williams wilted.
Nadal took advantage of the few
openings he got against John Isner on
Sunday, grinding out a 7-6 (8), 7-6 (3)
win at the Western & Southern Open
that added yet another title to his sen-
sational summer.
The 27-year-old Spaniard won the
championship in Montreal a week ago
and has back-to-back hard-court cham-
pionships for the rst time in his illus-
trious career. Hed never even reached
the nals in Cincinnati.
When his backhand down the line
nished it off, Nadal opped on his
back and screamed.
It means a lot winning two straight
titles on hard (courts), Nadal said.
Its just amazing for me. I never did
something like this in my career.
So it was an emotional moment.
Williams had never won a Cincinnati
title, either. Like Nadal, she was trying
for her second championship in two
weeks, fresh off her championship in
Toronto.
She dominated the rst set, then fell
apart, giving No. 2 Victoria Azarenka a
chance to rally for a 2-6, 6-2, 7-6 (6)
win that ended Williams 14-match
winning streak. Williams committed
58 unforced errors that turned the
momentum.
I just felt really off this whole week,
but I was surprised to be in the nal and
surprised to be doing well, Williams
said. So I dont know, theres a few
factors. I think what matters most was
just ghting the whole time and sur-
vived to the end.
The week in Cincinnati provided a
preview for the U.S. Open, with the
mens bracket more jumbled at the top.
I would say Rafa is the favorite
going to the U.S., Isner said. Clear-
cut? I wouldnt say that. I think hed
probably say the same.
Nadal, Azarenka win 1st titles in Cincy

I
wish a had a dollar every time Ive
heard people introducing two dogs
say something like this: just let em
go at it ... they will sort it out eventually as
thats what dogs do. They reason the domi-
nant dog will put the other dog in his or her
place and the fur will stop ying. While
this may be the case in nature with wild ani-
mals, the wild bunch in your home or yard
arent exactly the same. For one, wild ani-
mals severely injure or even kill each other
establishing this hierarchy. This is not
something you want to see between your
resident dog and a new dog you are bring-
ing into your home, or between your dog
and a family member or friends dog. Adog
ght can be scary to you, traumatic for the
dogs and costly if you have to make a trip
to the emergency clinic. It can be costly in
other ways, straining a family relation or
friendship. Also, in nature, the less domi-
nant animal has the option of leaving the
pack or group. If you have a new dog you
are trying to introduce to your resident dog,
you dont have that option and you dont
want to have to return your new dog. So,
dont let the two dogs duke it out. Have
them meet, on leash, somewhere unfamiliar
to both dogs. If this goes well, you can see
how they interact off-leash in this same
neutral territory. If one is off-leash and the
other is not, the dog left on-leash may feel
vulnerable. And, of the two options
ght or ight ght will be the easier one
since ight isnt possible. If you have any
doubts, you may want to have a profession-
al trainer observe the initial meetings. We
do this quite often when adopters who have
resident dogs bring those dogs to our
center to meet a new dog.

LOS ANGELES Lee Daniels The
Butler is serving up success at the box
ofce.
Starring Forest Whitaker as a longtime
White House butler and Oprah Winfrey as
his boozy wife, the Weinstein Co. biopic
debuted in the top spot with $25 million,
according to studio estimates Sunday. But
the weekends three other major new releas-
es, including the action romp Kick-Ass 2,
failed to nd traction with fans.
We expected to do well, but we didnt
expect to do this well, said Erik Lomis,
president of distribution and home enter-
tainment for Weinstein Co., adding that
The Butler is the companys rst No. 1
debut since 2009s Inglourious Basterds.
Even with a full slate of newcomers, last
weeks top movies claimed the second and
third spots in the box-ofce race. The Jason
Sudeikis-Jennifer Aniston Warner Bros.
comedy, Were the Millers, held onto sec-
ond place in its second week of release with
$17.78 million, while last weeks No. 1,
Sonys Elysium, dropped to third with
$13.6 million.
It was tough if you were any other lm
opening other than The Butler, said Paul
Dergarabedian of box-office tracker
Hollywood.com.
Kick-Ass 2, Universals tale of every-
day teenagers who dress up as superhero
crime-ghters, opened in fourth place with
$13.56 million. Open Roads Steve Jobs
biopic, Jobs, debuted in seventh place
with $6.7 million. And Relativitys
Paranoia, which stars Harrison Ford, Gary
Oldman and Liam Hemsworth, didnt crack
the top 12.
Maybe it should have been Oprah
Winfreys Jobs, Dergarabedian said. It
would have had a better shot.
Apart from Winfreys unmatched market-
ing power, The Butler also marked the
moguls return to the big screen for the rst
time since 1998s Beloved.
She was a signicant factor in the lms
success this weekend, Lomis said. Her pub-
licity machine really kicked into high gear,
and the entire cast, Lee Daniels and Forest
Whitaker, they delivered a quality lm and a
great campaign.
The summer typically belongs to super-
heroes and big-action fare, which is why
Weinstein chose to release The Butler
now.
Its different from pretty much every-
thing else in the marketplace, Lomis said.
That really seemed to help.
But the power of Oprah cannot be under-
estimated.
Its stronger than anything else,
Dergarabedian said.

seating for 2,000 on the lower oor
and 1,000 in the gallery. This turned
out to be a big money winner as it had
class acts from the country as well as
local amateur nights, etc.
All went well until the property
became too valuable and houses were
to be built on the site. Also, the area
was becoming too small for all of the
attractions so, on March 16, 1902, the
site was razed and a new site on D
street (now Fulton) between 10th and
11th avenues (on the north side of
Golden Gate Park) was chosen for the
new chutes. All of the concessions
found their way to the new site and a
new Pavilion Theater that could
accommodate 4,000 patrons was built.
The new site boasted the rst movie
house in the city, named Gillos
Artesto. It offered silent lm short
movies. Many other attractions were
added such as Down the Flumes that
offered a boat ride that passed scenic
panoramas over 10 scenes from for-
eign places and the Circle Swing that
had baskets on a wire that swung out
from the center that went faster and
faster and higher and higher.
The 1906 earthquake shut the chutes
down for a few weeks but things had
begun to change and the business
nally closed in 1907-08 for repairs.
It nally closed in 1909 after having
built a new skating rink. They prom-
ised the site would reopen, but it never
did. The skating rink, however,
reopened.
On March 9, 1909, the owners
announced that the chutes would
rebuilt downtown between Fillmore,
Turk, Webster and Eddy streets. The
site was too small for the chutes, so
they built a less than thrilling Down
the Flume and painted scenes around
the site. On May 29, 1911, a fire
destroyed the park.
The management assured the public
that they would rebuild, but it never
happened.

HISTORY
body ve days later in a woodsy area
near Lagoon Valley Park in unincorpo-
rated Vacaville in Solano County.
This is a man with convictions for
murder and kidnapping. He was the last
person seen with my sister, but claims
he has nothing to do with her disap-
pearance and killing, said Tanya
Coke, Sandra Cokes sister, in a writ-
ten statement. He is clearly someone
who thinks nothing of lying and
manipulating to serve his purposes.
Why would we or anyone else believe
what he has to say?
Alana appeared in an Alameda
County courtroom on Friday to face
allegations that hed violated his
parole by contacting Coke, a capital
case investigator for the federal public
defenders ofce in Sacramento. Alana
was also accused of resisting arrest,
failing to charge a GPS monitor he was
required to wear on his ankle and
absconding from parole.
Alana was arrested on Aug. 6 for vio-
lating his parole, two days after Coke
was reported missing after leaving her
Oakland home and telling family mem-
bers she was meeting someone with
information about her missing dog.
Judge Morris Jacobson did not say
why Alana had been ordered to stay
away from Coke. Alameda County
prosecutor Paul Hora told reporters
after Fridays hearing that he didnt
know why Alana had been told to stay
away from Coke, but said the condi-
tion is specic to her.
Hora said Oakland police are still
investigating Cokes death and Alana
has not been charged in connection
with the incident.
Alana told the newspaper that his
attorney advised him not to talk to
anyone about the case, but he said he
had nothing to hide. He said he had
nothing to do with Cokes murder.
We recently talked about getting
married, Alana said.
Alana said that he violated parole
ve times and spent extended time in
the Santa Rita Jail. Deputies told the
newspaper that Coke was a regular
visitor of Alana.
Coke worked for the federal public
defenders ofce as an investigator on
death penalty cases. She also had
worked for the California Appellate
Project, the San Francisco Public
Defender Office, the Equal Justice
Initiative of Alabama, and she had her
own private investigation rm.
According to a press release issued
by the federal defenders ofce, her
work contributed to a recent effort to
overturn a 2001 Sacramento County
murder conviction.
She dedicated her work and her life
to looking for the best in people, to
give some explanation to why people
do what they do even the most
heinous of acts, all based upon the
belief that no person should be judged
only by the worst act he or she com-
mitted, the release said.

The drugmaker, based in Stamford, Conn., did not imme-
diately respond to requests for comment.
OxyContin is a trade name for the drug oxycodone
hydrochloride, which is prescribed for chronic pain.
Douglas Cooper, executive director of the state medical
board, said that in addition to the names of physicians, he
also would need the information that raised red ags about
them before he could investigate. If the information was
provided and was the basis for a complaint, he said the
board would open an investigation.
In 2007, Purdue Pharma paid $600 million to settle
claims that it misled doctors about the drugs risk of addic-
tion.
Larry Pinson, executive secretary of the Nevada State
Board of Pharmacy, said there is no question that prescrip-
tion drug abuse is a huge problem in the United States.
Pinson said 80 percent of manufactured opiates in the
world, which includes OxyContin, are consumed in the
U.S.
Pinson said Nevada has one of the longest-running pre-
scription monitoring programs in the country, which iden-
ties consumers who are doctor-shopping to get pre-
scription drugs. Doctor shopping is a felony in Nevada, he
said.
ACenters for Disease Control and Prevention report last
year called prescription drug overdoses an epidemic. The
CDC said the unprecedented rise in overdose deaths in the
U.S. parallels a 300 percent rise since 1999 in the sale of
strong painkillers such as OxyContin.
DOCTORS
By Holly Ramer
CONCORD, N.H. Patients at
a New Hampshire hospital who
were infected with hepatitis C by a
traveling medical technician with
a drug problem are pleased with
his guilty plea but are still push-
ing to hold others accountable.
David Kwiatkowski, 34, pleaded
guilty last week to 16 federal drug
charges under an agreement that
calls for him to spend 30 to 40
years in prison. He admitted steal-
ing painkiller syringes from hos-
pitals where he worked and replac-
ing them with saline-filled
syringes tainted with his blood.
Before he was hired at Exeter
Hospital in New Hampshire in
2011, Kwiatkowski worked as a
cardiac technologist in 18 hospi-
tals in seven states, moving from
job to job despite being red at
least four times over allegations
of drug use and
theft.
Everyones
been pointing
a t
Kwi at kowski ,
and to some
extent they
should, but
what Exeter
Hospital is
trying to do is
hide behind Kwiatkowski and
point the finger at him, said
attorney Mark Abramson, who
represents 12 patients suing the
hospital and others. That does
not absolve them of their
responsibility, because no mat-
ter how bad of a jerk
Kwiatkowski is, the truth of the
matter is, it never shouldve got-
ten to this point.
Forty-six people in four states
have been diagnosed with the
same strain of hepatitis C
Kwiatkowski carries. Thirty-two
patients were infected in New
Hampshire, seven in Maryland,
six in Kansas and one in
Pennsylvania. Kwiatkowski also
worked in Michigan, New York,
Arizona and Georgia.
Most of the New Hampshire
patients are suing Exeter, the
national accreditation organiza-
tion for radiological technicians
and two of the stafng agencies
that employed Kwiatkowski. Six
cases have been settled in
Rockingham County Superior
Court, and the remaining 23 are
tentatively set to go to trial start-
ing in November 2014, according
to the hospitals lawyer, William
Dailey.
The civil litigation is moving
along as we anticipated, and were
hopeful that more matters can be
resolved as time passes, he said.
The hospital has strongly
denied allegations that it ignored
employee concerns about
Kwiatkowskis alleged drug use,
saying he always offered plausible
explanations for his appearance
and behavior.
According to court documents,
Kwiatkowskis co-workers said he
sometimes showed up for work
with bloodshot eyes, sweating
profusely or foaming at the
mouth. In each case, Kwiatkowski
cited plausible personal medical
issues or family crises, the hospi-
tal said.
He claimed to have Crohns dis-
ease, and when one co-worker
complained he looked like he was
on something, he told a supervi-
sor he had been up since 3 a.m.
crying over his aunts death.
The hospital notes that
Kwiatkowski held the appropriate
certication for the job and had
been highly recommend by his
two previous employers, and it
argues the outbreak was caused by
a single health care worker with
criminal intent.
David Kwiatkowskis mali-
cious and callous acts deeply vio-
lated the trust of patients,
providers and employees of Exeter
Hospital, the hospital said last
week.
The state Supreme Court on
Friday accepted a petition from
Maxim Healthcare Services,
which employed Kwiatkowski in
2008 and 2009. The company is
asking the court to throw out a
lower court ruling requiring its
employees to travel to New
Hampshire to be questioned by
lawyers.
Depending on what the court
decides, that could further slow the
progress of the civil cases,
Abramson said. Depositions
havent been scheduled yet, and
the various parties are still wran-
gling over which documents must
be shared, he said.

Having an outside consultant pick
Loftus as a nalist offered greater cred-
ibility to the decision to hire her,
Councilman Jack Matthews told the
Daily Journal.
We deemed her the best qualied and
the process legitimized the decision,
Matthews said.
Although Matthews had hoped to
end his time on the council with Loftus
as the citys boss, he said her retire-
ment is well deserved.
Loftus has worked for the city for
more than 25 years.
Im disappointed shes not staying
longer, but shes put in her time, he
said.
According to a staff report, hiring a
consultant will be benecial because it
would be familiar with the applicant
pool and will likely be aware of viable
candidates who would be interested in
applying for the job.
Executive recruitment consulting
firms keep databases of potential
applicants and have the skill and
expertise to perform the search,
according to the staff report the coun-
cil will hear Monday.
The consultant would:
Develop the city manager position
prole;
Prepare the recruitment brochure,
marketing materials and advertising
plan;
Conduct candidate outreach;
Assess and screen the candidates;
Recommend nal candidates;
Conduct interviews; and
Do a background check on the
nalist and negotiate terms of employ-
ment.
The process will take up to six
months, according to the staff report.
Deputy Mayor Robert Ross said the
search may include candidates from
across the nation but that an adminis-
trator already working in California
might be the best way to go.
It would give the city manager an
advantage to know state law, he said.
The city managers job also includes
the hiring of top administrators and
department heads.
With Community Development
Department Director Lisa Grote leav-
ing the city in a few weeks, Loftus
could technically hire Grotes replace-
ment before she leaves in November.
Ross, however, thinks the citys
next city manager might be the best
choice to hire the new CDD director.
It might be better to weather the
storm and bring in a brand-new team,
Ross said.
The council meets in a special study
session 5:30 p.m. tonight, City Hall,
330 W. 20th Ave., San Mateo.

Rethink Waste, negotiates waste rates
for its member agencies and oversees
the Shoreway Environmental Center
in San Carlos which provides recy-
cling. Members are Atherton,
Belmont, Burlingame, East Palo Alto,
Foster City, Hillsborough, Menlo
Park, Redwood City, San Carlos, San
Mateo, San Mateo County and the
West Bay Sanitary District.
When the task force recommended
replacing appointed staff on the board
with an elected official from each
agency, eight of the 12 members had
to agree. They did by July 24, effec-
tively implementing the switch.
Several of those agencies also voiced a
desire for the code and technical advi-
sory committee but determined the new
board should decide for itself whether
to implement the suggestions.
Interestingly, a few months after the
task force made its recommendation to
change the board makeup, the San
Mateo Civil Grand Jury issued a report
calling for the exact opposite. The
jury called a change unnecessary
because elected ofcials already have
sufcient inuence on major decisions
like contracts and rate increases.
However, the jury added that if the
SBWMA members did opt for change,
it should add the technical advisory
committee.
Doing so would have no fiscal
impact on the SBWMA but each mem-
ber agency would feel it because of
their staffs time spent on committee
business, according to a staff report
from SBWMA attorney Robert
Lanzone.
The South Bayside Waste
Management Authority Board meets 2
p.m. Thursday, Aug. 22 at the
Shoreway Environmental Center,
upstairs community room, 225
Shoreway Road, San Carlos.

Regarding 7-Eleven, Ross said the
City Attorneys Ofce provided con-
icting advice to the applicant and
that it should have never happened.
There should have been a le that
the planners could have looked at to
see what the prior determinations were
for the propertys use, he said.
Everybody should have been in the
loop. No conflicting advice should
have been given.
In the public hearing last month,
both Planning Commissioner Rick
Bonilla and Public Works
Commissioner Anna Kuhre urged the
council to move forward with the audit
as did Christine Stiles, who has been a
vocal opponent of the citys approval
of the 7-Eleven.
Currently, the city is in a legal battle
with 7-Eleven and property owner
Portfolio Development Partners that
is set to go before a judge soon. If the
store is forced to close, 7-Eleven and
PDP contend they will be out $8 mil-
lion.
The proposed cost to conduct the
audit ranges from $40,000 to
$120,000, according to a staff report.
The meeting is 5:30 p.m., Tuesday,
Aug. 20, City Hall, 330 W. 20th Ave. ,
San Mateo.
