Six months. A good amount of
time to some, but nothing when it
may be the last months you have to
live and see your family. This was
the situation when doctors told
Kelvin Yu he was on limited time
because his liver
was failing and
the only thing
that could save
his life was a
liver transplant.
Hanging on for
life and the hope
of seeing his
two teenage
sons again, Yu survived because of
an organ donation that has kept him
alive now for 16 years. He found an
appreciation and renewal of life that
has remained with him since.
You feel like a new person, he
said. Its my second life.
To celebrate, give back and hope-
fully help someone in a similar situ-
ation, Yu shared his story with oth-
ers whose lives have been affected
or saved by organ donation at the
Millbrae Library July 31 as part of
National Minority Donor
Awareness, a week that aims to
increase awareness and registrations
of organ donors in minority com-
munities. The event, hosted by the
California Transplant Donor
Network, was specically targeted
at the Asian Pacic Islander com-
munity to open up the discussion
about organ donation and encourage
more Asians to register as donors.
The API community is dispropor-
tionately represented in terms of
registered donors compared to those
in need of organ transplants. Fewer

Dealing with overcrowding while

could be aided by a $130 million
bond measure the San Mateo-Foster
City Elementary School District
Board of Trustees will consider
placing on the November ballot one
day before the deadline to le.
The vote comes one week after
SCORE, also known as the
Superintendents Committee on
Overcrowding Relief, shared its rec-
ommendation with the board to
eliminate school overcrowding in
Foster City by replacing Bowditch
Middle School and moving fifth
graders there. Trustees agreed that
Bowditch needed to be replaced.
While they were open to the idea of
moving fifth graders, there were
many questions yet to be answered
about curriculum, design, trafc and
the impact on elementary schools
that would lose its young leaders.
Dealing with overcrowding in
Foster City has been a focus, how-
ever, district officials have also
noted a need for upgrades through-
out the district. On Thursday, it will
consider a districtwide, $130 mil-
lion bond measure to address issues
at all schools.

Driving along a paved El Camino
Real only became possible about
100 years ago, when ground was
broken on the state highway in San
Bruno a moment celebrated by
political and transportation leaders
yesterday morning.
A crowd gathered in front of San
Bruno City Hall Tuesday morning,
many of them would later take part
in a historic car procession down the
street that was being celebrated. The
popular thoroughfare was the rst
highway in the California Highway
System to be paved, said Bijan
Sartipi, California Department of
Transportation District 4 director.
Our parents, grandparents and
great-grandparents paved the way so
we could have a better future, he
said.
The celebration focused on how
state Highway 82 allowed people to
easily go from town to town provid-
ing freedom from the Southern

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
RICHMOND A major re at one of the
countrys biggest oil reneries that sent hun-
dreds of people to hospitals with complaints of
breathing problems will push gas prices above
$4 a gallon on the West Coast, analysts said
Tuesday.
The re, which sent plumes of black smoke
over the San Francisco Bay area, erupted
Monday evening in the massive Chevron ren-
ery about 10 miles northeast of San Francisco.
It was out early Tuesday.
The West Coast is particularly vulnerable to
spikes in gasoline prices because its not well-
connected to the reneries along the Gulf Coast,
where most of the countrys rening capacity is
located, analysts say.
The Chevron renery is particularly big and
important to the West Coast market, said Tom
Kloza, chief oil analyst at Oil Price Information
Service.
It produces about 150,000 barrels of gasoline
a day 16 percent of the regions daily gaso-
line consumption of 963,000 barrels, he said.
Californias average price Tuesday for a gal-
lon of regular gasoline was $3.86. But with
inventories in the region already low compared
with the rest of the country, pump prices along
the West Coast will soon average more than $4
a gallon, Kloza said.
Chevron spokesman Lloyd Avram said he did
not have an update on when the renery could
be restarted and declined to comment on what
kind of impact the shutdown might have on the
gasoline market.
Spot prices have already increased by as
much as 30 cents per gallon in some West Coast
markets and thats before the renery damage
has been fully assessed, said analyst Patrick
DeHaan of the website GasBuddy.com.
The re began around 6:15 p.m. Monday in
the renerys No. 4 Crude Unit, about two hours
after a vapor leak of hydrocarbons similar to
diesel, said Heather Kulp, a Chevron spokes-
woman.
At approximately 6:30 p.m., the volume
increased and personnel evacuated the area,
she said at a news conference. The hydrocar-
bon vapor then ignited and a re occurred.
Kulp said there were no explosions, and staff
at the renery initiated an emergency response
immediately after the re started. The cause is
under investigation.
The black smoke and ames could be seen
miles away from the renery that has long been
the target of complaints and lawsuits by people
who live near it in Richmond, a mostly low-
income community with ve major oil reneries.
Mayor Gayle McLaughlin said the re was
unacceptable.
We live with the day-to-day risk of this type
of manufacturing and rening that has an
impact on our community with pollutants being
released, but with the accident that happened
yesterday, that doesnt mean its acceptable,
because its not, McLaughlin said in a KCBS
radio interview.
State workplace safety investigators cordoned
off the entire crude unit, and no one was being
allowed to enter without approval from the
state, said Erika Monterroza, a spokeswoman
for Californias Division of Occupational Safety
and Health, or Cal/OSHA.

NEW YORK Marvin
Hamlisch was blessed with perfect
pitch and an infallible ear. I heard
sounds that other children didnt
hear, he wrote in his autobiography.
He turned that skill into writing
and arranging compulsively memo-
rable songs that the world was
unable to stop humming from the
mournful The Way We Were to
the jaunty theme from The Sting.
Prolific and seeming without
boundaries, Hamlisch, who died at
68 after a short illness, composed
music for lm heroes from James
Bond and Woody Allen, for power-
ful singers such as Liza Minnelli
and Aretha Franklin, and high-kick-
ing dancers of the Tony-winning A
Chorus Line. To borrow one of his
song titles, nobody did it better.
He was a true musical genius,
but above all that, he was a beautiful
human being. I will truly miss him,
said Barbra Streisand, who rst met
the composer in 1963 and sang his
The Way We Were to a Grammy
win in 1974. It
was his brilliant-
ly quick mind,
his generosity,
and delicious
sense of humor
that made him a
delight to be
around.
Hamlisch col-
lapsed and died
Monday in Los
Angeles after a brief illness, his publi-
cist Ken Sunshine said, citing the fam-
ily. Other details were not released.
The New York-born Hamlisch
composed more than 40 lm scores,
including Sophies Choice,
Ordinary People, The Way We
Were and Take the Money and
Run. His latest work came for
Steven Soderberghs The
Informant!
Hamlisch became one of the most
decorated artists in history, winning
three Oscars, four Emmys, four
Grammys, a Tony, a Pulitzer and
three Golden Globes. The marquees
of Broadway theatres in New York
will be dimmed in his memory on
Wednesday at 8 p.m.

NEW YORK Judith Crist, a
blunt and popular lm critic for the
Today show, TV Guide and the
New York Herald Tribune whose
reviews were at times so harsh that
director Otto Preminger labeled her
Judas Crist, has died. She was 90.
Her son, Steven Crist, said his
mother died Tuesday at her
Manhattan home after a long illness.
Starting in 1963, at the Tribune,
Crist wrote about and discussed thou-
sands of movies, and also covered
theater and books. She was among
the rst reviewers of her time to gain
a national following, and Roger Ebert
credited her with helping to make all
lm critics better known, including
such contemporaries as The New
Yorkers Pauline Kael and Andrew
Sarris of the Village Voice.
With the growing recognition of
such foreign
directors as
Francois Truffaut
and Federico
Fellini, and the
rise of such
American lm-
makers as Robert
Altman and
Martin Scorsese,
the 1960s and
1970s were an inspiring time for
movie reviewers. But Crists trade-
mark quickly became the putdown.
An early review was for Spencers
Mountain, a sentimental family
melodrama starring Henry Fonda and
Maureen OHara. Unmoved by a
story that became the basis for the TV
series The Waltons, Crist
denounced the lms sheer prurience
and perverted morality and cracked
that it makes the nudie shows at the
Rialto look like Walt Disney produc-
tions.

PASADENA NASAs latest
adventure to Mars has given the
world more than just glimpses of a
new alien landscape.
It opened a window into the
trip itself, from video footage of
the landing to a photo of the
rover hanging by a parachute to a
shot of discarded spacecraft
hardware strewn across the sur-
face. And the best views of
Mars and the journey there are
yet to come.
Spectacular, mission deputy
project scientist Joy Crisp said of
the footage. Weve not had that
before.
Since parking itself inside an
ancient crater Sunday night, the
Curiosity rover has delighted scien-
tists with views of its new surround-
ings, including the 3-mile-high
mountain it will drive to. It beamed
back the rst color picture Tuesday
revealing a tan-hued, pebbly land-
scape and the crater rim off in the
distance.
Locale aside, Curiosity is giving
scientists an unprecedented sense of
what it took to reach its Martian
destination.

SAN FRANCISCO Mayor Ed
Lee said Tuesday he was no longer
considering a tactic that would
allow police to stop and frisk suspi-
cious people in an effort to get
weapons off San Francisco streets.
The move came after weeks of
criticism that the
policy would
bring racial pro-
ling to a city
known for its
strong liberal
outlook.
Lee said at a
news conference
the city will
instead rely on
more traditional strategies such as
targeted enforcement and use of
crime-tracking software to combat
surging gun violence. The city has
had 29 rearm homicides so far this
year, more than half of those in June
and July, police said.
All the plans we are announcing
today may not sound brand new, but
they are a reinvigoration of where
are hearts are, Lee said.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
The alleged Norteo gangmember
accused of stabbing four people out-
side a wedding reception in Half
Moon Bay in January pleaded not
guilty Tuesday to multiple attempt-
ed murder and assault charges.
Wilmer Manuel Ucan, 18, of El
Granada, is the only suspect arrest-
ed in the Jan. 28 attack although the
Sheriffs Office previously said
there are other young men involved.
They and Ucan are allegedly afliat-
ed with the Media Luna Norte or
Half Moon North gang. On
Tuesday, he entered not guilty pleas
to all charges, said District Attorney
Steve Wagstaffe. Ucan will be back
in court for a pretrial hearing Sept.
21 and a jury trial is set to begin
Dec. 3.
Ucan was 17 at the time of the
stabbings but prosecutors charged
him as an adult due to the serious
nature of the alleged crime and his
age being so close to 18.
According to authorities, four men
in their 20s were leaving a wedding
reception at the I.D.E.S. hall on
Main Street shortly before midnight
when they were approached by a
group of males and stabbed by at
least one of the suspects. No motive
or other details about the altercation
were released. Ucan was arrested
Feb. 10 and there may be one or two
more suspects at large.
All four victims were treated at a
local hospital and released.
Ucan remains in custody on
$500,000 bail.

Siblings struck on El Camino Real
A brother and sister were struck by a car in
Millbrae yesterday morning and suffered
serious injuries, according to the San Mateo
County Sheriffs Office.
A 16-year-old girl and her 11-year-old
brother are in critical condition at San
Francisco General Hospital after both were
struck on El Camino Real near Hillcrest
Boulevard, according to the Sheriffs Office.
The accident happened at about 10:45 a.m.
and the female driver of the car remained on
scene and was cooperative with investiga-
tors, according to the Sheriffs Office.
The accident occurred on the 100th
anniversary of the groundbreaking of El
Camino Real.
Auto burglary
suspects taken into custody
A routine traffic stop in San Carlos for a
vehicle having a broken brake light led to the
arrest of two people for multiple offenses
including burglary and possession of stolen
property, according to the San Mateo County
Sheriffs Office.
The vehicle was pulled over yesterday at
about 10 a.m. at the intersection of Arroyo
Avenue and Elm Street, according to the
Sheriffs Office.
During the traffic stop and the ensuing
investigation, deputies learned the driver,
later identified as Marcos Patino, was driv-
ing with a suspended drivers license.
The deputies also discovered that Patino
and his passenger, a 16-year-old male juve-
nile, were in possession of burglary tools
and several items that were stolen in auto-
mobile burglaries from the cities of Fremont
and Belmont. Both Patino and the juvenile
reside in Fremont, according to the Sheriffs
Office.
Patino was subsequently arrested and
booked into jail for driving with a suspend-
ed license, conspiracy, burglary, possessing
burglary tools and for possession of stolen
property. The juvenile was also arrested and
booked into the Youth Services Center for
conspiracy, burglary and possessing stolen
property, according to the Sheriffs Office.
Vehicles burglarized on coast
Three cars parked in a lot near Sams
Chowder House Restaurant in Half Moon
Bay had their rear windows busted out and
items taken from them Monday night,
according to the San Mateo County Sheriffs
Office.
Two laptop computers and a binder were
taken from the vehicles.
In the first case, the suspect broke out a
rear passenger window of a silver Chrysler
200 and a binder containing miscellaneous
paperwork was removed.
In the second case, the suspect broke out
the passenger window and removed a laptop
computer from a blue Toyota Rav4 which
was parked along Highway 1.
The third vehicle, a silver Honda Civic,
also had the rear passenger window broken
out and the suspect stole a laptop computer
from the back seat, according to the Sheriffs
Office.
In each case, the window appeared to have
been broken out using a punch type instru-
ment. It is believed the suspect reached in
through the broken window to steal the
items, as all vehicles remained locked when
the victims returned to their cars. Other items
of value contained within the vehicles were
not taken, according to the Sheriffs Office.
Anyone who may have witnessed this inci-
dent or who has information is encouraged to
contact the San Mateo County Sheriffs
Office at (650) 363-4911. You may also call

Line at (800) 547-2700.

Pescadero man
killed in crash identified
A 65-year-old Pescadero man killed in a
crash in southern San Mateo County
Monday evening was identified as Gerald
Kearby, a California Highway Patrol Officer
said.
Kearby was driving west in a white Ford
pickup truck on Pescadero Creek Road when
the crash happened at about 6:30 p.m., CHP
Officer Art Montiel said.
Kearby lost control of the truck just south
of Roy Gulch. In an attempt to correct the
vehicle, Kearby crossed over the eastbound
lanes and the truck overturned, crashing into
a tree on the shoulder, Montiel said.
Kearby was pronounced dead at the scene.
No other vehicles were involved and the
crash and alcohol did not appear to be a fac-
tor, Montiel said
The incident remains under investigation
by the CHP.

Loughner pleads
guilty to Arizona shooting
TUCSON, Ariz. Jared Lee
Loughner agreed Tuesday to spend the
rest of his life in
prison, accepting
that he went on a
deadly shooting
rampage at an
Arizona political
gathering and
sparing the vic-
tims a lengthy,
possibly traumatic
deat h- penal t y
trial. His plea
came soon after a federal judge found
that months of psychiatric treatment
for schizophrenia made Loughner able
to understand charges that he killed six
people and wounded 13 others, includ-
ing his intended target, then-Rep.
Gabrielle Giffords. I plead guilty, the
23-year-old college dropout said.

Republican Mitt Romney accused
President Barack Obama on Tuesday
of ditching a long-standing work
requirement for welfare recipients,
accusing him of fostering a culture
of dependency and backing up the
charge with a new television com-
mercial.
White House press secretary Jay
Carney said the allegations were
blatantly dishonest ... hypocrisy
knows no bounds. He added that
Romney, while serving as
Massachusetts governor, had once
petitioned the White House to loosen
employment rules for those on wel-
fare.
Romney made his accusation in a
relatively rare occurrence in the race
for the White House an appear-
ance before voters outside the small
group of battleground states likely to
settle the Nov. 6 election.
Illinois and its 20 electoral votes
are politically safe territory for
Obama in the fall. Romney was there
for a fundraiser as well as a stop at a
manufacturing company, part of the
intense competition between the two
candidates to stockpile cash for the
stretch run to Election Day.
The president was speaking at two
private events, one of them a
fundraiser, at a hotel a few blocks
from the White House. And after
being outraised by Romney in recent
months, his campaign announced a
fundraising shoot-around and din-
ner in New York on Aug. 22 featur-
ing several professional basketball
stars.
In a race as close as this one, the
taunts were getting personal.
Romney, interviewed on Fox
News, said Obama was saying
things that are not accurate when it
comes to taxes. He referred to a
crack the president made on Monday
night as Obama-loney, rhyming it
with baloney.
At a fundraiser, Obama called
Romneys tax plan Robin Hood in
reverse Romney Hood and
repeated his accusation that it would
mean tax breaks for the wealthiest
Americans while forcing the middle
class to pay the IRS as much as
$2,000 more a year.
The president wants to extend tax
breaks due to expire at all income
levels, except above $200,000 for
individuals and $250,000 for a cou-
ple. He has made his proposal central
to a pitch to middle- and working-
class voters as he seeks a second term
with unemployment at 8.3 percent.
Romney wants to keep the tax cuts
in place at all income levels, and has
proposed an additional 20 percent
reduction in rates.

BEIRUT Syrian President
Bashar Assad made his rst appear-
ance on state TV in nearly three
weeks Tuesday in a show of solidar-
ity with a senior Iranian envoy, even
as the U.S. urged stepped up inter-
national planning for the regimes
collapse.
The visit to Damascus by the
highest-ranking Iranian official
since the uprising began coincided
with a warning by an increasingly
agitated Tehran that it holds the
U.S. responsible for the fate of 48
Iranians seized by Syrian rebels.
Appearing together on state TV,
Assad and Irans Saeed Jalili vowed
to defeat the rebels and their back-
ers, while U.S. Secretary of State
Hillary Rodham Clinton predicted
Assads regime was quickly unrav-
eling, with high-level defections
such as his prime ministers switch
to the rebel side.
Jalilis visit highlighted Assads
deepening reliance on a shrinking
list of allies, led by Tehran. Assad
seen on state TV for the rst time
since a July 18 bombing in
Damascus killed four of his top
security ofcials used Jalilis
visit to portray a sense of command
and vowed to ght his opponents
relentlessly.
Jalili, the secretary of Irans
Supreme National Security Council,
promised Iran would stand by Syria
against its international enemies

Western backers and others such as
Saudi Arabia and Qatar.

ATLANTA Finally some good
news about cholesterol and kids: A
big government study shows that in
the past decade, the proportion of
children who have high cholesterol
has fallen.
The results are surprising, given
that the childhood obesity rate didnt
budge.
How can that be?
Some experts think that while
most kids may not be eating less or
exercising more, they may be get-
ting fewer trans fats. Thats because
the artery-clogging ingredient has
been removed or reduced in many
processed or fried foods such as
doughnuts, cookies and french
fries.
Thats my leading theory, said
Dr. Sarah de Ferranti, director of
preventive cardiology at Boston
Childrens Hospital. She wrote an
editorial that accompanies the study.
The study did not look at the rea-
sons for the decline, but its lead
author, Dr. Brian Kit of the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention,
said the theory makes sense.
The research, released online
Tuesday by the Journal of the
American Medical Association, also
showed that childrens average over-
all cholesterol levels declined slight-
ly.
Too much cholesterol in the blood
raises the risk of heart disease. It
isnt usually an immediate threat for
most children, but those who have
the problem often grow into adults
with a high risk.
Kit and his colleagues drew data
from an intensive national study that
interviews people and does blood-
cholesterol tests. They focused on
more than 16,000 children and ado-
lescents over three periods 1988-
94, 1999-2002 and 2007-10.
During the most recent period
studied, 1 in 12 children ages 6
through 19 had high cholesterol.
That was down from 1 in 9 during
each of the earlier periods rough-
ly a 28 percent decline.
The average overall cholesterol
level fell from 165 to 160. In chil-
dren, 200 is considered too high.
Kids cholesterol down; fewer trans fats cited

Letters to the editor
Times Herald, Port Huron, Mich.
T
heres an ugly truth that keeps nag-
ging us. As much as we might like
to, it cannot be ignored.
More Americans are becoming poor.
The nations 2011 poverty rate is expected
to hit 15.7 percent, according to an
Associated Press forecast, a troubling
increase from 15.1 percent in 2010 and a har-
binger of worse rates to come.
Theres no disputing the Great Recessions
impact on the growth of poverty. The nation-
al rate increased from 13.2 percent in 2008,
when the economic crisis began, and has
grown steadily ever since.
With the ranks of the poor signicantly
expanded with victims of the economy, it
stands to reason that the threat of the grow-
ing poverty rate ought to have emerged as a
critical issue. It has not.
Election campaigns locally, statewide
and nationally dont address the threat of
poverty or the increasing ranks of the
poor. You wont hear a robocall, watch a
television ad or read a campaign flier that
mentions the issue, much less proposes
ways to fight poverty.
Thank goodness for the soup kitchens,
food pantries and other services that help the
poor. Most of them struggle to meet the ris-
ing demand for their services despite reduc-
tions in government aid.
You wont see many politicians paying
them visits in this election year and you
wont hear the candidates making any prom-
ises to win these resources greater support
for the vital work they do.
Poverty is the status we fear and ght to
avoid, but it is a condition few of us seem
willing to do something about. It also is a
circumstance that is becoming greater and
that ought to trip some alarms.
Poor Sue
Editor,
So Daily Journal columnist Sue Lempert is
at it again, this time, attacking the NRA
(Batman versus the NRA in the Aug. 6 edi-
tion of the Daily Journal). Yes, there are
tragedies we all sincerely regret but dont
take it out on the hundreds of thousands of
law-abiding citizens simply because a few
have caused major grief and sorrow for some
in this society. This is an age old argument
and Im not going there.
Ms. Lempert should focus on other issues
that plague our state and society today
(California already has some of the most
restrictive gun laws in the country). I would
like to hear her solutions for more funding
for (better) education and jobs creation that
would most likely reduce the need for crime.
Maybe she could offer funding suggestions
for job programs that include Jerry Browns
pipe dream for Southern California and the
railroad to nowhere.
To create this funding, there could be sev-
eral revenue streams on which Ms. Lempert
could draw. Double taxation on the wealthy 1
percent as they can afford it. Raise property
taxes since senior citizens wont mind as they
get Social Security. Increase taxes for all
who work for a living (its only fair). Dont
forget sales tax also. But wait, theres more.
Provide a 7.5 percent guaranteed return on
all Individual Retirement Accounts just like
government pensions do. Any shortfall could
be backlled by the state.
Rick Zobelein
San Mateo
Batwoman against the NRA
Editor,
Daily, ordinary law abiding citizens use
rearms for sport, hunting and yes on occa-
sion for self-defense against criminals.
Mainstream media and Daily Journal
columnist Sue Lempert disregard those facts.
They prefer to join the frenzied swarm that
titillates in demonizing the National Rie
Association that defends rights guaranteed by
the Second Amendment.
Might Mrs. Lempert have the rearm
industry in her ... crosshairs? Or simply, capi-
talism?
Lempert lambastes the rearms industry
(private business) for succeeding in manufac-
turing and selling their product guns.
Horrors. This may be the only business that
Obama has actually affected in creating a
positive cash ow because since his election,
gun sales have skyrocketed.
Additionally, unmentioned are the plethora
of alternatives a disturbed individual(s) might
use to inict mass casualties:
Fertilizer for explosives Oklahoma
City;
SUVs University of North Carolina,
2002;
Airplanes 9/11;
Screws and bolts numerous attacks by
homicide bombers against Israelis/Indians;
Heavy equipment Caterpillar attack
against Jerusalem pedestrians by an Arab ter-
rorist; and
Kool-Aid Jim Jones, Jonestown mas-
sacre.
How could any of these unspeakable
crimes, including Aurora, Colo. and
Wisconsin Sikh Temple been prevented?
Perhaps by implementing psychological
proling that would recognize individuals
that might need increased access to mental
health options or that would identify individ-
uals embracing an ideology that reveres
death.
Until our society extricates itself from the
testicular grasp of political correctness, this
approach will never be utilized because it
requires responsible judgment and imple-
mentation.

ts not exactly news that college loans
could be the next bubble, passing the $1
trillion mark.
College loans are now greater than credit
card debt.
Because they cannot be eliminated, even in
bankruptcy, college loan debt can follow peo-
ple to Social Security.
Now a Wall Street Journal article illustrates
just what a bad debt college loans can be.
Lenders are offering college loans without
the same kind of checks that used to be
expected. And students, too often immature
when it comes to offers of easy money, too
often are taking on much more in loan bur-
dens than they can afford.
So a new program from the Obama admin-
istration ought to be applauded. It encourages
colleges to have students ll out a Shopping
Sheet that illustrates the real cost of the debt
to be undertaken.
Dawn Lockhart, CEO of Family
Foundations ... would like the proposed
checklist of college costs to include a place
for the student to pick a career that shows the
sort of income the student can expect to
make.
The income of the profession the student is
pursuing will make a huge difference in the
justication of the loan.
The student should have to take a moment
and realize just how much of his beginning
salary will go to college loans. As much as a
car payment? As much as a mortgage pay-
ment? ... families with the means owe it to
their children to take a long hard look at the
loans their children are taking. And colleges
themselves owe it to their students to force-
fully encourage a hard look.

Keith Kreitman
T
hose of you who regularly read
the weekend edition of the Daily
Journal may have noticed the
absence of Keith Kreitmans column in
recent weeks. Love him or hate him,
Keith has pro-
vided a certain
perspective
couched in a
historical con-
text and a
felicity of
expression.
His absence
can be
explained by
simply stating
his new resi-
dence is the VA
in Palo Alto. He
is in hospice care.
For the most part, he is in good spirits
and though he can no longer write a col-
umn for us, has found plenty of people
with whom to share his viewpoints. The
care is excellent and even the food is
good, he reports.
Keith has had a storied life in what
he calls the apex of Americas greatness.
Having served as a combat medic in
World War II, where he was awarded a
Bronze Star and two Oak Leaf clusters.
With two unit citations for heroism, he
returned stateside and benefitted from the
G.I. Bill along with 20 million others.
From there, he said, America hit a lucky
streak in which he was more than happy
to participate. For him, life is an adven-
ture and he embarked on adventure after
adventure in various industries. He has
been a professional musician, award-win-
ning playwright, interior designer with
degrees in political science and journal-
ism. He also had a career in the insurance
business, as a commodities options broker
and with four major private corporations.
And those adventures brought him to the
Peninsula more than 25 years ago. But
you probably knew most of that from his
tagline that appeared at the end of his
columns that appeared in the Daily
Journal every week.
It was six years ago that Keith began
writing his weekly column for us and he
has grown a fairly sizable following since.
His columns receive praise from the left
and scorn from the right, but his ability to
put current events into a historical per-
spective is without peer. I often disagreed
with his stances on certain subjects, but
appreciated the amount of time and effort
he put into his writing.
And though I sometimes cringed at his
run-on sentences, I did notice his felicity
of expression. He also wrote scores of
theater reviews in a time in which many
local production companies were thirsting
for coverage. There was seldom a produc-
tion in which he did not find some value,
and he often delighted in their work. I
know his effort in reviewing theater did
not go unnoticed.
Keith is also a heck of a nice guy, with
a cutting humor in even the most dire of
situations. At the VA, he remarked how he
is often prodded and poked and how a

NEW YORK It was a day of mile-
stones for the stock market.
Stronger corporate earnings reports
and expectations that central banks will
act to support the economy powered the
Standard & Poors 500 index past 1,400
for the rst time in three months. The
index rose 7.12 points to close at
1,401.35 on Tuesday. Energy stocks
increased the most of the 10 industry
groups tracked by the index.
The Nasdaq composite index marked a
milestone of its own: the rst close
above 3,000 since early May. The
Nasdaq rose 25.95 points to 3,015.86.
The S&P hasnt closed above 1,400
since May 2, and the Nasdaq hasnt
closed above 3,000 since May 3.
Theres been a bunch of positive
earnings numbers, said Stephen Carl,
head of equity trading at The Williams
Capital Group. While that makes some
investors happy, Id like to see some
more robust growth.
The Dow Jones industrial average rose
51.09 points to 13,168.60. The Dow is
now 996 points below its all-time high of
14,164.53 reached on Oct. 9, 2007, prior
to the nancial crisis. The Dow would
have to rise 7.6 percent to break that
record.
Energy companies rose broadly after
Chesapeake Energy reported that its
income doubled in the second quarter.
Revenue from oil, natural gas and natu-
ral gas liquids rose. Chesapeakes stock
soared $1.67 to $19.37, lifting other
energy stocks with it Cabot Oil & Gas
jumped $2.09 to $42.88 and Occidental
Petroleum rose $2.48 to $90.74.
Chesapeake was the latest major U.S.
company to turn in a stronger earnings
report. Of the 430 companies in the S&P
500 that have reported earnings through
Tuesday, 65 percent beat Wall Streets
expectations, according to S&P Capital
IQ. More than 43 percent have reported
double-digit growth.
On Tuesday, accessories maker Fossil
reported that its second-quarter net
income climbed 12 percent thanks to
growing demand in Asia and strong
watch sales. The performance topped
analysts estimates, and the stock popped
$21.98, or 31.5 percent, to $91.77, the
biggest gain in the S&P 500 index.
MGM Resorts International reported a
29 percent surge in revenue even though
the casino company had a quarterly loss.
The stock rose 70 cents, or 7.5 percent,
to $10.08.

NEW YORK More than 20,000
AT&T workers in California, Nevada
and Connecticut started two-day
strikes Tuesday to protest what the
union called harassment by the compa-
ny.
The phone company is negotiating
new contracts with the
Communications Workers of America.
The company is restricting standard
bargaining-support activities such as
wearing union stickers and buttons,
said Libby Sayre, president of the
CWA district covering California and
Nevada.
Unlike a bargaining strike of indefi-
nite duration, this one is limited but
extendable, Sayre said.
AT&T spokesman Marty Richter
said the company has been negotiat-
ing in good faith.
The workers are on the landline side
of the company. Richter said the com-
pany was well prepared to handle the
disruption.
In June, an unknown number of
workers in California and Nevada
walked off the job to protest a memo
that the union says impugned their
work performance. That work stoppage
lasted a day and wasnt as broadly
organized as Tuesdays.
The contracts expired in April, and
negotiations have been going on since
February.
At issue in the negotiations are job
protection clauses and health care pre-
miums and co-payments. AT&T says it
wants employees to shoulder more of
their growing health care costs and
wants more leeway to downsize its
shrinking landline operations. Some of
its workers have contracts that guaran-
tee them job offers at different parts of
the company if theyre laid off.

Disney beats 3Q profit views but revenue misses
LOS ANGELES The Walt Disney Co.s prot for the
third-quarter beat analyst estimates but revenue failed to meet
expectations due to unchanged revenue at its movie studio
despite a surge in prot from The Avengers.
The company said Tuesday that net income rose 24 percent
to $1.83 billion, or $1.01 per share. There were minor adjust-
ments that had no impact on the per-share results. Analysts
polled by FactSet expected earnings of 93 cents per share.
Revenue rose 4 percent to $11.09 billion, short of the $11.32
billion expected by analysts.
Disneys movie studio was behind much of the revenue
miss, although the Marvel superhero epic The Avengers
helped boost prot in the segment. Studio revenue was almost
unchanged from a year ago at $1.63 billion, which was less
than the $1.77 billion analysts expected.
Studio prots jumped to $313 million from $49 million a
year ago. The company said upbeat ticket sales to movies like
The Avengers and Brave were offset by fewer sales of
DVD and Blu-ray discs. Prominent home video titles during
the quarter included John Carter and The Muppets, lms
that were shepherded to the big screen by former studio chair-
man Rich Ross.
FAA suspends operation that led to near-collision
WASHINGTON The Federal Aviation Administration
will bar airports nationwide from using a trafc-reversing
operation that led to a close call last week at an airport near the
nations capital.
No commercial airports will be able to use the maneuver, in
which controllers direct some planes to take off and land from
the opposite of the usual direction, until a standardized proce-
dure can be put in place, aviation ofcials said. There is no
national standard for the maneuver, although airports follow
their own procedures.
The FAA expects to have new procedures in place within a
month, said FAA Chief Operating Ofcer J. David Grizzle. In
the meantime, airports can only use the maneuver known as
opposite-direction operations in emergencies.

As the national spotlight shines with greater
fervor on head injuries in sports, California
legislation will require all high school coach-
es to receive training in concussions that could
affect the way local schools handle this type
of injury.
On Monday, Assembly Bill 1452 passed
through the state assembly 65-0 on its way to
the Gov. Jerry Browns desk.
The bill would require high school coaches
to receive training every two years on recog-
nizing the signs of concussions and respond-
ing to them appropriately.
If youre an athletic coach, especially at
this level, it is not only a job, its a responsi-
bility of you and it should be a mandate to be
so safety conscious, said Phillip De Rosa,
head girls soccer coach at Burlingame High
School. You have to remember, were deal-
ing with kids. Parents entrust the kids to us
and we want to make we have all the knowl-
edge that we possibly can to keep those kids
safe.
Im not surprised, said Steve Sell, head
football coach at Aragon. I think history
shows, once something like this gets pro-
posed, it becomes law faster than anything.
Nobody is going to oppose it. Right now, its
a hot issue.
Hot indeed, especially after a study pub-
lished in the Journal of Athletic Training
found that the two highest rates of concus-
sions in high schools in the United States per
100,000 player games or practices occur in
football (47) and girls soccer (36).

As the 2012 Olympic gymnastics competi-
tions come to an end in London, a young
woman from San Carlos watches with the
dream of one day donning the red, white and
blue.
Her name is Ilana Gordon, a member of
Airborne Gymnastics and as recently as a year
ago, the dream of one day being an Olympic
athlete was nowhere to be found.
A lot of my dreams, I
didnt know if they were
realistic or not and it was
kind of scary, said the 16-
year-old Gordon, whos
been a gymnast since the
age of 5. I felt like I was
running out of time to
make my dreams comes
true. But [now] I see I have
much more time than I thought I did. I de-
nitely was not condent in myself and didnt
realize how much potential I have. I believe in
myself now and I think thats great.
The resurgence in condence hasnt come
cheap for Gordon, who travels to Santa Clara
to train at Airborne and basically puts in a 9-
to-5 shift at the gym to work on improving her
skills. But she translated her hard work this
year into a spot at Nationals where she put
together the best performance of her career
she posted scores that wont get her to the

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. Players names are
being added to Penn States football jerseys for
the coming season, the university announced
Tuesday, along with blue ribbons to show sup-
port for victims of child abuse.
The teams generic look blue-and-white,
no names on jerseys has long been a trade-
mark and was associated with the buttoned-
down style of former coach Joe Paterno, who
was red last year after his former assistant Jerry
Sandusky was arrested on child molestation
charges.
School ofcials said adding the names was a
way to recognize the resolve and dedication of
the players, as the team faces a four-year bowl
ban and loss of scholarships under the severe
penalties handed down by the NCAA last month
over the schools handling of the Sandusky scan-
dal.
The changes will take effect with the Sept. 1
season opener at home against Ohio University.
We want our fans to know and recognize
these young men, said coach Bill OBrien, who
was hired after last season. They have stuck
together during tough times, and I commend
them for the leadership they have shown.

HARTFORD, Conn. A federal appeals
court has ruled that colleges cannot count
competitive cheerleading as a sport when try-
ing to comply with gender-equity require-
ments, upholding a U.S. District Court deci-
sion against Quinnipiac University.
In a decision released Tuesday, the 2nd U.S.
Circuit Court of Appeals found that competi-
tive cheerleading does not yet meet the stan-
dards of a varsity sport under Title IX, the
1972 federal law that mandates equal opportu-
nities for men and women in education and
athletics.
The ruling comes on an appeal led by
Quinnipiac, a school with about 8,000 stu-
dents in Hamden, which had been successful-
ly sued by its volleyball coach after it tried to
eliminate the womens volleyball program in
favor of competitive cheering.
Like the district court, we acknowledge
record evidence showing that competitive
cheerleading can be physically challenging,
requiring competitors to possess strength,
agility, and grace, the court wrote. Similarly,
we do not foreclose the possibility that the
activity, with better organization and dened
rules, might someday warrant recognition as a
varsity sport. But, like the district court, we

SANTA CLARA Michael Crabtree
smiled, took a breath and tried to explain how
his latest injury happened. After a few silent
seconds, the San Francisco 49ers wide receiv-
er nally gave up.
I dont know too much about injuries, bro.
You would think I would
know, he said, laughing.
Maybe nobody with San
Francisco should know
more.
Speaking publicly for
the first time since
Januarys NFC champi-
onship game, Crabtree
said Tuesday that his
strained right calf an
injury that had been a
mystery to everybody out-
side the 49ers locker room wont sideline
him for San Franciscos preseason opener
Friday night against the Minnesota Vikings at
Candlestick Park.
Whether he actually plays is unclear.
I dont think the 1s are going that much,
he said about the rst-team offense.
The wide receiver also said that his latest
limited offseason will not slow down his
development. He pronounced himself pain
free at least for now and participated in
all team drills except the 2-minute offense for
the rst time this training camp in Tuesdays
afternoon practice after doing individual drills
the last few days.
Its always something different in foot-
ball, Crabtree said. Im sure everybody go
through stuff. It was just my calf, and I had to
stay off of it. I didnt want nothing serious to
happen to it. Like I said, it was all the training
staff and coaches did that stuff for me. When
they say Im going, Im going.
This training camp has followed a similar
pattern to Crabtrees career.
Crabtree has missed all 12 preseason games
the last three seasons because of two foot sur-
geries, a neck injury and a lengthy contract
holdout after San Francisco drafted the Texas
Tech wide receiver 10th overall in 2009. He
injured his calf on the rst day of training
camp this year and is still sporting a black
sleeve over it.
Crabtree caught 72 passes for 874 yards and
four touchdowns last season in San
Franciscos tight end-friendly offense. He has
175 receptions for 2,240 yards and 12 touch-
downs in his career.
This offseason was supposed to be different.
The 49ers signed free agent receivers Randy
Moss, Mario Manningham and drafted A.J.
Jenkins 30th overall out of Illinois with the
teams only rst-round pick. With quarterback
Alex Smith coming off a breakout season
behind NFL Coach of the Year Jim Harbaugh,
the returning staff nally offers some continu-
ity on offense.
Crabtree red back at reporters when asked
about not having another full offseason
schedule. He said every player misses time
You think everybody goes like every day
of camp? he asked at one point and said
his situation is no different than any other
49ers player, even though Crabtree is the only
starter to miss every exhibition the last three
years.
I dont think about it like that, he said. I
think about it like football, and whenever I can
go, Im going. If I cant go or they wont let
me go, then I cant be out there. I look at it like
as football, man. Im listening to the training
staff and coaches and whats wise for me to
do.

SANTA CLARA Colin Kaepernick has
never sought attention at San Francisco 49ers
headquarters. He always praises starter Alex
Smith, keeps his answers short and simple, and
deects everything back to the team.
In other words, what a backup quarterback
should do.
So when Kaepernick stepped to the lectern
Tuesday, the second-year quarterback out of
Nevada stayed mostly on
script with one major
exception. Kaepernick made
it clear he has no desire to be
a career backup, outlining his
goals this year in the most
expansive comments hes
ever offered.
To go and show that I can
be a starter in this league,
Kaepernick said. I want to
go out, perform my best and
show everybody what Im capable of.
All the 49ers faithful are still waiting to see what
that might be.
So long as Smith stays healthy and keeps San
Francisco (No. 4 in the AP Pro32) on schedule for
another playoff appearance, its doubtful that
Kaepernick sees any meaningful minutes again
this season. Kaepernicks best chance to shine g-
ures to start Friday night when the 49ers host the
Minnesota Vikings (No. 29) in the preseason open-
er for both teams.
Colin, specically, he needs that work, 49ers
coach Jim Harbaugh said. Its been a long time
since hes played in game action. Kind of liken it
to a golfer who does nothing but play the same
course over and over and over again. Thats kind of
what practice can be like for a quarterback.
Theyre getting a lot out of practice, practice tempo
and things of that nature. But theres something
about playing the games that makes them advance
even further.
At least for now, Kaepernicks career has stalled.
The 6-foot-4, 230-pounder is the only player in
college football history with three seasons in
which he passed for at least 2,000 yards and ran for
at least 1,000. The production came while playing
in Nevadas Pistol offense, which never really
required him to take snaps from under center, and
tossing passes from different arm angles in a habit
the former pitcher is still trying to break.
The transition to Harbaughs complex version of
the West Coast offense only became more difcult
with last years lockout wiping away offseason
workouts and turning training camp into a speed
race. Kaepernick was swamped just trying to grasp
the schemes, formations and terminology much
less complete passes and often looked lost.
I denitely wasnt as prepared as I wouldve
liked to be last year, he said. But you have to deal
with the situation we had to deal with. With the
lockout, we went out there and did the best we
could.
All Kaepernick seemed to do as a rookie in the
preseason was give Harbaugh headaches.
In his rst possession as an NFL quarterback,
the blitz-happy New Orleans Saints sacked
Kaepernick three straight times to end the drive.
He nished the preseason with a 23.9 passer rating
lowest among the 80 quarterbacks who threw at
least 20 passes while completing 24 of 50 pass-
es for 257 yards, ve interceptions and no touch-
downs.
His nal stat line in the regular season: 3 for 5
passing for 35 yards in three games. He also lost 2
yards on two carries.
I dont think he was overwhelmed, 49ers
offensive coordinator Greg Roman said. I think
he was grinding through it, might be a better way
to put it. It was a completely different offense,
playing under center for the rst time with a new
group of players who you really havent played
with before. Denitely, theres a curve there.
The lack of playing time hasnt helped.
The 24-year-old Kaepernick, who grew up
about 100 miles east of San Francisco in Turlock,
sat behind Smith while the 2005 No. 1 overall pick
turned in the best season of his career and led the
49ers to the NFC championship game. The only
work Kaepernick could do during games was lis-
ten to the coaches-quarterback radio frequency on
a headset, pay attention and go through the plays
just like I was in the games, looking at the defense,
seeing where Id be going with the ball.
Now theres competition just to hold onto that
spot.
San Francisco signed Josh Johnson in the off-
season, reuniting the Tampa Bay Buccaneers
backup with Harbaugh, who rst took a chance on
the undersized quarterback while he coached at the
University of San Diego. Johnson started ve
games in four seasons with Tampa Bay, complet-
ing 96 of 177 passes for 1,042 yards, ve touch-
downs and 10 interceptions. Scott Tolzien, who
spent last year on the 49ers scout team, is also
back.
Kaepernick to
get his chance
Colin
Kaepernick
has bylaws in place to deal with concussions.
On May 7, 2010, the State CIF Federated Council passed
Bylaw 313 that requires a signed medical release before a stu-
dent-athlete who is suspected to have sustained a concussion
can return to play.
The bylaw states: A student-athlete who is suspected of sus-
taining a concussion or head injury in a practice or game shall
be removed from competition at that time for the remainder of
the day. A student-athlete who has been removed from play
may not return to play until the athlete is evaluated by a
licensed health care provider trained in the evaluation and man-
agement of concussion and receives written clearance to return
to play from that health care provider.
Currently, the CIF bylaws do not require a high school coach
to have formal education on concussions. The CIF says schools
should ensure that all coaches (paid or volunteer) are educated
in the nature and risk of concussion or head injury prior to the
rst practice and/or competition. The education shall include
signs and symptoms of concussion and/or brain injury.
There are those medical professionals that believe that pre-
ventative and proactive measures should go a step further.
I think thats great, said Jo Silken, the former head athletic
trainer at Skyline College for 33 years, and current trainer for
the Pac-West, a subdivision of the Pac-12. Of course as an ath-
letic trainer, and if you talk to others in my profession, theyll
tell you the same thing. While we think thats a good step to
take, we would prefer that they hire an athletic trainer at every
school that is going to access the athletes and not leave it up to
coaches.
The proposed California legislation would require coaches to
take a two-hour online course. Silken believes that simply isnt
enough. Currently, a voluntary 20-minute course exists on the
CIF website.
A lot of times, theres just one thing wrong with the athlete
and it might be something that you can visually see is wrong
with them, Silken said. The reality is, most schools have a
nurse there during the day, when the risk of serious injury is far
less than when sports are going on. So, why would you provide
care for P.E. class injuries and daytime injuries with a nurse and
not provide any care after school?
Schools like Burlingames have a head trainer who is very
visible and accesible throughout the athletic year.
Its extremely helpful to have him at our games, De Rosa
said of Matt Smith, Burlingames athletic trainer. Were so
involved with coaching in the games, sometimes we dont see
those things. And its peace of mind knowing I have a trained
professional going out there to deal with this injury. It just takes
a lot of pressure out of coaching.
The athletic trainers, we work with [sports medicine doc-
tors] all the time. Were doing the same medical tests theyre
doing, and thats the thing, Silken said. These athletes need to
be monitored and re-tested every day and coaches just dont
have time to do that.
According to Sell, the San Mateo Unied High School
District recently allocated funds for every school in their district
to hire a part-time athletic trainer (20 hours a week). On top of
that, the education all high school coaches would receive might
help the actual athletes be more careful with their bodies, espe-
cially when dealing with something as serious as a head injury.
I think generally the awareness is up, Sell said. I think the
referees are more in tune, coaches are more in tune, parents are
more in tune, the players are more in tune. The question is: is it
going to successfully change behavior? Maybe. If it helps one
kid, its worth it.
Now, given all thats going on, concussions are at the fore-
front of all sports, especially at the youth level, De Rosa said.
Having said that, we educate the kids on it and will continue
to do so. If you have an injury, if you feel like youve banged
your head, we need to made aware of it. Theres a certain
responsibility on their part.
Anytime a teacher, a coach, has additional training, becomes
more cognizant and aware of injuries, how to deal with them,
how to be aware of symptoms, that is extremely important.
Brown, after receiving AB 1451, will have 12 days to decide
whether to sign or veto it. If he does neither, the measure would
become law automatically and take effect next January.

LONDON Marlen Esparza already
knows shell stand on a podium Thursday
with a medal around her neck from the rst
Olympic womens boxing tournament.
The American yweights next two ghts
the last of her boxing career will deter-
mine its color.
In the U.S., if its not gold, its not good
enough, so Im trying to
get a gold, Esparza said.
Thats classic Esparza
blunt, contemplative,
more than a bit self-criti-
cal.
That personality drove
her to the top of a sport
that allowed no Olympic
aspirations when she took
it up over a decade ago.
And that drive has secured
her place in the sports his-
tory no matter what hap-
pens in her seminal bout
Wednesday against
Chinas world champion,
Ren Cancan.
Esparza and mid-
dleweight teammate
Claressa Shields are
among the 12 medalists in
a tournament receiving
widespread praise and
driving international interest in an amateur
sport thats decades removed from its most
dynamic days. The women have upstaged the
men as the best thing in the London ring, and
not just for the novelty.
The quarterfinal rivalry bout matching
Irelands Katie Taylor and Britains Natasha
Jonas had the most electric atmosphere of the
tournament, yet the quality of boxing also was
undeniably top-notch. No less an authority
than Amir Khan, the British silver medalist in
Athens and now a successful pro, said he
thinks Taylor could beat many of the men in
her weight category in London.
When you see womens boxing at the high-
est level, how can you argue that women
arent just as good as the men? Jonas asked.
The eld of medalists ghting Wednesday
reects that talent.
Russia, China and the U.S. team will take
home two medals apiece. The other winners
range from the expected Taylor, the pound-
for-pound champion of the womens game
to the delightfully unexpected: lightweight
Mavzuna Chorieva, who clinched Tajikistans
rst-ever Olympic boxing medal with an upset
win over Chinas Dong Cheng.
Esparza t in comfortably with the worlds
best in recent weeks, and her talent has made
her a bigger name than even she realized.
Esparza has done commercials for Cover Girl
makeup and Coca-Cola in recent months, and
Kobe Bryant, LeBron James and Carmelo
Anthony asked her to pose for a photo with
them in the Olympic Village while she was
hitting the pads with her coach.
Thanks to a rst-round bye in this relatively
small tournament, Esparza had to win just one
Olympic bout to secure a medal although
the women have fought for years just to reach
this stage.
It took like 50 ghts to get here, so I dont
really see it that way, Esparza said. I see that
I got a denite blessing in the brackets, and I
think it was well-deserved, because my brack-
ets (in other tournaments) have been horrible.
... I deserved that bye, and it took me a long
time to get here.
Esparza and Shields both have fathers who

ST. LOUIS Buster Posey continued his
second-half tear with a three-run homer, Barry
Zito pitched 6 2-3 innings of two-run ball and
the San Francisco Giants defeated the St.
Louis Cardinals 4-2 Tuesday night.
Posey leads the major leagues with a .448
batting average and 30 RBIs since the All-Star
break, including 12 in his last six games.
Posey has an 11-game hitting streak, batting
.431 (19 for 44) during the stretch
Joaquin Arias drove in the Giants other run
with an RBI double. Melky Cabrera also dou-
bled for San Francisco, giving him a big
league leading 152 hits.
Zito (9-8) allowed two solo home runs by
Allen Craig. He gave up eight hits overall with
four strikeouts and no walks. Jeremy Affeldt
got the last four outs for his third save in four
chances.
The multihomer game was the fourth of
Craigs career and second of the season. He
last did it July 2 against Colorado.
Cardinals starter Lance Lynn (13-5) failed
in his bid to become the National Leagues
fourth, 14-game winner, allowing four runs on
eight hits with two walks and six strikeouts in
six innings.
Things started poorly for
Lynn as Angel Pagan and
Marco Scutaro opened the
game with back-to-back
singles. After Cabrera
grounded into a elders
choice, Posey blasted a
417-foot homer to dead
center to give the Giants a
3-0 advantage.
Craig homered with two
out in the third and two out in the fth to make
it a one-run game. San Francisco made it 4-2
in the sixth on a single by Brandon Belt, a
stolen base and a double by Aria to the gap in
left center.
NOTES: Carlos Beltran extended his hit-
ting streak to nine games with a rst-inning
double. ... Ryan Vogelsang (9-5) will face
Cardinals rookie Joe Kelly (2-4) in the third
game of the four-game set Wednesday. ...
Pagan also walked and has been on base 14
times in last 26 plate appearances. ... Rafael
Furcal went 1 for 4 and has just two hits in his
last 21 at-bats. ... San Francisco has hit 51 of
its 71 homers on the road, including eight on
its current road trip.

Goodson carted off field
NAPA Oakland Raiders running back
Mike Goodson left the hospital and returned
to training camp headquarters on Tuesday
night after he was injured in a helmet-to-hel-
met collision during practice earlier in the day.
Goodson was taken away from practice by
ambulance with a possible neck injury after an
on-field collision with teammate Philip
Wheeler. The Raiders said in a statement that
a CT scan and MRI both came back negative,
and that Goodson went back to the team hotel.
The Raiders received encouraging news
Tuesday night from doctors treating Mike
Goodson, who left the practice eld with a
neck injury, with movement in his extremi-
ties, the team statement said.
Goodson was attempting to catch a pass
from Carson Palmer during a passing drill
when he was leveled by Wheeler with what
appeared to be a helmet-to-helmet hit that
could be heard at the opposite end of the eld.

TRANSACTIONS
LONDON In their rst
Olympics, April Ross and Jennifer
Kessy will play for the gold medal in
an all-American beach volleyball nal.
In their nal Olympics together,
Kerri Walsh Jennings and Misty May-
Treanor are playing for something
more.
We want to seal the deal that were
the best team thats ever happened,
Walsh Jennings said Tuesday night
after the two-time gold medalists
advanced to their third consecutive
Olympic nal with a 22-20, 22-20 vic-
tory over China. I want to win tomor-
row for us. ... This will be our last
match together, so we want to go out
on top.
A few hours later, Kessy and Ross
beat the top-seeded Brazilians in a per-
sistent rain to join their fellow
Californians in Wednesday nights
gold medal game. Prince Harry is
expected to attend, following prime
minister David Cameron by one night
to the stands at Horse Guards Parade,
which has also hosted such luminaries
as Bill Gates, Prince Albert of
Monaco, London Mayor Boris
Johnson and a handful of NBA stars
from the U.S. mens basketball team.
I cant believe it. I only let myself
picture it in my dreams, Ross said. I
never really expected it. I knew that we
could do it, but the competition in the
nal four is so big.
Ross and Kessy rallied from a rst-
set loss and a four-point decit in the
second to beat reigning world champi-
ons Juliana and Larissa 15-21, 21-19,
15-12. The Brazilians will play in the
third-place game against Chinas Xue
Chen and Zhang Xi, who are trying to
repeat their bronze medal nish from
Beijing.
Despite a medal shutout by the
American men, the United States has
clinched multiple beach volleyball
medals for the fourth time in ve
Olympics since it became a recog-
nized sport in 1996.

Olympic Games ... yet. But, admittedly, even
getting to Nationals to compete was something
she wouldnt have been able to do a year ago.
In her rst year as a Level 10 Optional gym-
nast, Gordon went to Nationals and posted an
overall score of 37.775, after solid showings on
the vault, oor and bars.
I did better than I had ever done in my gym-
nastics career, Gordon said. I still wasnt a
condent gymnast at the beginning of the year,
but I think I turned out to be at the end of the
year. I think just from the rst few meets, I was
already there.
Gordon said her goal was to improve 1/10th of
a point in the all-around competition. And while
she had a rough go of things at Regionals,
Gordon bounced back at Nationals, much to her
delight.
Gordon placed sixth on oor with a 9.625,
11th on vault with a 9.7 and 11th on bars with a
9.475. All this after a shaky start on beam.
That was a tough one for me, Gordon said.
That was the rst event at Nationals and thats
always been the one event that Ive been the least
condent on. So I denitely was really shaky.
But I think I did a really good job of putting that
behind me and let all the negative thoughts out
of my head. I went to oor and rocked that.
Gordon was quick to credit Peninsula
Gymnastics in San Mateo with laying the prop-
er foundation for her. They got me to where I
was, thats huge, she said.
But the switch to Airborne gave Gordon a jolt.
And admittedly, it something she needed.
The change wasnt easy, said Gordon, com-
paring it to the rst day at a new school. I was
really nervous to go there because I had heard so
much about them and I didnt know if I could
live up to their standards. I was denitely intim-
idated when I rst walked in there. The rst
week, I was like, Oh my god, am I going to
make friends?
More than friends, Gordon found con-
dence. Not that it wasnt there before, but
Gordon admits sometimes you need some-
thing to light a re under you to get your
dreams revved up again.
My coaches really helped me and reminded
me that its fun, not to have any regrets when Im
there, just do my best, Gordon said. One of my
coaches taught me my favorite quote: If you
think you can, you can. And if you think you
cant, youre right.
It only motivates me for next year to get
those tenths back and have no regrets, Gordon
said of her time at Nationals. Gordon plans to
carry her newfound condence into her junior
year at St. Francis High in Mountain View with
the hopes of one day making a college gymnas-
tics team.
My coaches always remind me that if I did
what I was capable of, I would blow my mind,
Gordon said.
GORDON
conclude that the record evidence shows that that
time has not yet arrived.
The appeals court agreed with U.S. District
Judge Stefan Underhill, who found in 2010 that
competitive cheerleading did not have the organi-
zation, post-season structure or standardized rules
required to be considered a varsity sport.
An activity can be considered a sport under Title
IX if it has coaches, practices, competitions during
a dened season and a governing organization.
The activity also must have competition as its pri-
mary goal not merely the support of other ath-
letic teams.
Several volleyball players and their coach had
sued Quinnipiac University after it announced in
March 2009 that it would eliminate the team for
budgetary reasons and replace it with a competi-
tive cheer squad.
Underhill ordered the school to keep volleyball
and after his ruling, Quinnipiac decided to keep
both teams.
This year marks the 40th anniversary of Title
IX, and its tting that this decision underscores its
importance, said Jonathan Orleans, who repre-
sented the plaintiffs. This is a great victory for
Quinnipiacs female student athletes and for
womens collegiate sports.
The schools competitive cheerleading team has
since renamed acrobatics & tumbling, and
joined the National Collegiate Acrobatics and
Tumbling Association, which was formed in part
to help develop the activity into a recognized sport,
and distance itself from traditional sideline cheer-
ing.
John Blake, the executive director of that asso-
ciation, said the courts ruling is based on old
information about an activity that no longer exists.
He said he believes acrobatics and tumbling will
get federal recognition.
Weve done both what the judge asked us to do
and what the NCAA has asked us to do, and weve
been in communication with the Department of
Education, he said. Were making strides toward
it. Were denitely making progress.
Other schools compete in competitions put on
by USA Cheer and Varsity Brands Inc., in some-
thing they are calling STUNT, with a similar goal.
The idea is to remove the crowd-leading and
focus on the technical aspect of cheerleading, such
as jumps and tumbling skills, Varsity said.
Varsitys motivation continues to be to protect
the young people who participate in traditional
cheerleading, while also creating an alternative
discipline that uses cheerleading skills in a new
format that would create a separate sport for Title
IX compliance purposes, said Sheila Noone, a
spokeswoman for Varsity. The rapid develop-
ment of STUNT, under the direction of USA
Cheer, is well on its way to achieving that goal.
The court also agreed with Underhills nding
that female runners who participate on schools
indoor, outdoor and cross country track teams
should be counted just once for Title IX purposes,
rather than three times as the school had sought.
The university naturally is disappointed that
the court did not rule as it had hoped, school
spokeswoman Lynn Bushnell said in a statement.
Quinnipiac will continue to enhance opportuni-
ties for our female student-athletes, which include
volleyball, acrobatics and tumbling, basketball,
cross country, eld hockey, golf, ice hockey,
lacrosse, rugby, soccer, softball, tennis and indoor
and outdoor track and eld.
The school did not indicate whether it would
appeal the decision to the U.S. Supreme Court.
RULING
Fran Fisher, a longtime Penn State radio
announcer, said the jersey changes may rufe
some feathers among former players, and the
vanilla uniforms will continue to be associated
with Paterno.
I think Coach OBrien has a right to do
whatever he wants to do to have an identity for
his team, Fisher said. I think that the plain-
ness of the Paterno era will be remembered
because he considered it to be a team sport.
Sandusky, 68, awaits sentencing on 45 crim-
inal counts, probably next month, and is likely
to spend the rest of his life in state prison.
Paterno died of lung cancer in January, and
a university-commissioned investigation of the
Sandusky scandal concluded he and other top
Penn State officials concealed allegations
against Sandusky going back to 1998.
The NCAA also stripped the school and
Paterno of more than 100 wins, dropping him
from atop the list of the winningest coaches in
major college football history.
PENN ST.
love the intensity and violence of boxing
just not necessarily for their daughters.
Esparzas father, David, hoped his two sons
would become boxers, but Marlen showed a
talent they couldnt match. David initially was
reluctant, but saw his daughters passion for
the sport and embraced it.
Clarence Cannonball Shields always
wanted a son who could share his love of box-
ing, particularly after his own amateur career.
He spent seven years of Claressas youth in
prison, but piqued her interest in boxing with
stories of Laila Ali and his favorite ghters.
Claressa pestered him for two years to try
boxing until he relented when she was 11.
I have a strong determination not to lose,
Shields said. I feel like growing up, I lost so
much. I just want to be a winner. I love box-
ing, I put all my time into boxing, and I feel
like I deserve to win.
While Esparza is a chiseled, poised techni-
cian in the ring, Shields ghts on ample
reserves of emotion and power. Shields paid
close attention to U.S. coach Gloria Peeks
instructions between rounds of her victory
over Swedens Anna Laurell, yet she also kept
her ears open to instructions shouted from the
stands by a coach who knows her even better.
Jason Crutcheld has been training Shields
for years at Berston Field House in Flint,
Mich., and thinks of Shields as his daughter.
His instruction from the stands is mostly to
direct her mind, reminding her of a game plan
that sometimes doesnt seem like fun when
her fearsome sts are ying.
Im boxing in there. I just happen to hit
hard, Shields said. Thats how I was taught.
I wasnt taught to load up. If I was to load up
on every punch, I would have been stupid
tired in that last round, and she would have
won. I was just being sharp, and I just happen
to hit hard. Ive been paying attention to the
point system, I really have.
Shields path to a gold medal got clearer
with the shocking loss of top-seeded
Savannah Marshall of Britain, who beat
Shields at the world championships
although Shields wasnt happy.
She gave me my rst loss, Shields said
wistfully. Thats something that has motivat-
ed me: If I win, Ive got Savannah my next
ght.
Instead, Shields will face Kazakhstans
Marina Volnova, who I really dont think is a
very tough opponent for me, she said with
her usual teenage matter-of-factness.
Dont worry: Crutcheld has plenty of time
to channel that energy before Shields next
step into Olympic history.

Sichuan peppercorns: Big flavor with a jolt
A
ny food that can make your tongue tingle has got to
be worth a taste. Im not talking a seltzer-like zippi-
ness or even a searing chili-like heat. I mean literally
tingling because your tongue is at once numb and buzzingly
alive.
That is the power of the Sichuan pep-
per (also called Sichuan peppercorn). But
why would you want to (albeit mildly)
numb your mouth? Because aside from
the basic coolness of a tingling tongue,
that sensation also changes the way you
taste food seasoned with the pepper,
adding a wonderful punchy vibrancy and
warmth unlike anything else.
First, the basics. Despite appearances,
Sichuan pepper is not a true peppercorn.
It is the dried rind of the berry-like fruit
of the prickly ash tree. And chances are
youve had it before. Sichuan pepper is a
basic component of Chinese ve-spice powder.
As its name suggests, the spice has left a serious thumbprint
on the cuisine of Chinas Sichuan province. It also is used in
Japan, where it is called sansho. The taste has been compared
to lime zest combined with black pepper, cardamom and hot
peppers. The tingling is likened to an electric charge.
SICHUAN PEPPER MEATBALLS
Start to nish: 30 minutes
Makes 3 dozen meatballs
For the meatballs:
2 teaspoons Sichuan pepper
1/2 star anise
1/2 teaspoon dry ground ginger
1 egg
4 scallions, whites and greens, nely chopped
2 teaspoons salt
1 pound lean ground beef
1 pound lean ground pork
Sesame oil, for frying
For the dipping sauce:
1 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons honey
Pinch salt
Heat the oven to 400 F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil
and coat with cooking spray.
In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the Sichuan pepper,
star anise and ginger for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Transfer
to a spice grinder and grind until reduced to a ne powder.
Transfer to a large bowl.
Add the egg to the seasoning blend, then whisk well. Mix in
the scallions and salt, then add the beef and pork. Use your
hands to mix well. Form the mixture into tablespoon-size meat-
balls.
In a large skillet over medium-high, heat about 1 tablespoon
of sesame oil until nearly smoking. Working in batches and
without crowding the pan, brown the meatballs on all sides,
about 5 minutes.
Transfer the meatballs to the prepared baking sheet. Repeat
with remaining meatballs, adding oil to the skillet as needed.
When all of the meatballs have been browned, place them in
the oven and roast for 8 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare the dipping sauce. In a small bowl,
whisk together the sour cream, honey and salt.
When the meatballs are nished, serve them with toothpicks
and ramekins of the dipping sauce.
J.M. HIRSCH
In Chinese cooking, Sichuan pepper is toasted before being crushed or ground. This mutes the spices citrus avors and
heightens its woody notes, making for an excellent pairing with meats.

Red wine blends mix
things up for summer
By Michelle Locke
Red wine blends are having a red hot moment.
After years of being passed over for single-variety wines
such as cabernet sauvignon and pinot noir, a new wave of
blended red wines made in a crowd-pleaser style and priced
at a budget-friendly $9 to $12 a bottle is winning favor with
consumers.
Theyre drinking the red blends, says Doug Bell, national
wine and beer buyer for Whole Foods Market. The wines tend
to be kind of plush, very fruity, very smooth, and offer an
alternative to consumers who want to try red wines but arent
looking for the traditional single-grape varieties.
Wines made from more than one red grape arent new, of
course. The classic Bordeaux blends from France generally are
made from a blend of six grapes, with the predominant grapes
being cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc and merlot. And
even single-variety wines arent necessarily pure. By law, they
can contain up to 25 percent of a grape different from whats
listed on the label.
The blends making news in the United States often incorpo-
rate the New World grape zinfandel, as well as syrah, which
hails from France but has become more associated with the
New World, especially Australia.
Red blends started getting trendy about two years ago, with
brands such as Menage a Trois, made from three red grapes.
Some popular blends at Whole Foods include Frey
Agriculturist, a California wine that is a blend of carignan,
merlot and syrah, and Innovac!on Shiraz Cabernet from
Argentina along with Innovac!on Tempranillo-Malbec.
Roy Cecchetti, cofounder of Cecchetti Wine Co., also based
in Sonoma County, expects the red blend wine category to
continue to grow over the next 18 to 24 months. Hes launched
a blend called Exitus (Latin for departure) that retails for $25.
The 2010 blend combines three grapes from California
Central Coast syrah, petite sirah from the Mendocino Coast
and merlot from Lake County.
Last week, the board heard survey
results from Godbe Research about a
possible bond measure. The 408-person,
18-minute survey given throughout the
district earlier this month showed sup-
port for placing a measure on the
upcoming November ballot, said Godbe
President Bryan Godbe. A larger bond
could allow the district to address issues
in both Foster City and San Mateo.
The district has long struggled with
how to approach paying for the over-
crowding problem.
Voters previously approved Measure
L, a $175 million bond measure in 2008,
but it fell short of the $330 million out-
lined in the 2007-08 facilities master
plan. In addition, some Measure L
money was put aside to help with the
Foster City growth, specically to pur-
chase land.
Last year, building a fourth elementary
school was the districts focus. Covering
the rest of the cost was to come from a
new bond measure, which could be dis-
trictwide or only in Foster City.
Over the last year, the district created
a Special Facilities Improvement
District made up of Foster City residents
and placed a $25 million bond on the
November 2011 ballot for only Foster
City residents money which would
have been used to fund a fourth elemen-
tary schools construction. The board
pulled the bond last August, nding the
move premature before a possible site
had been identied and studied.
Earlier this year, the board considered
placing a measure on the June ballot but
pulled back after public backlash from
the districts interest in purchasing a six-
acre shopping center located at 1050-
1064 Shell Blvd. in Foster City known
as Charter Square. As a result, the joint
city-district effort of SCORE was put
together in hopes of nding a suitable
option.
Moving fth graders to middle school
would reduce the number of students at
elementary schools and eliminate over-
crowding. First, Bowditch would need to
be renovated or torn down and rebuilt.
Tearing down and rebuilding the school
comes with an estimated $65 million
price tag.
SCORE member Yvonne Ryzak, who
served as a representative appointed by
the City Council, spoke highly of
Bowditch but said the facilities needed
to be addressed. Ryzak also asked the
district to consider allowing everyone
time to learn about the plan before ask-
ing for tax dollars.
If San Mateo-Foster City moves for-
ward with the bond, it will be the fourth
school measure before local voters in
November.
Earlier this month, the San Carlos
Elementary School District Board of
Trustees placed a $72 million bond
measure on the November ballot. Such
funds could be used for updating tech-
nology, repairing schools, improving
traffic safety, reducing overcrowding
and upgrading energy efciencies to cre-
ate long-term savings, according to the
district. The Burlingame Elementary
School District placed a $56 million
bond measure on the November ballot to
increase capacity and technology.
The San Bruno Park Elementary
School District Board of Trustees placed
a ve-year $199 annual parcel tax on the
November ballot. Such a measure
requires two-thirds support to pass. If
passed, the tax would go into effect July
1, 2013.
The board will meet 7 p.m. Thursday,
Aug. 9 at the District Ofce, 1170 Chess
Drive, Foster City.
SM-FC
contacted about the car and a meeting
was set for another location in Belmont,
with a person Christopher John Prew,
59, thought was another potential buyer,
according to police.
The second buyer, however, turned out
to be a Belmont police ofcer and the
Nissans actual owner turned out to be
Hertz Car Rental, according to police.
Prew was taken into custody without
incident Saturday after arriving to meet
the next buyer in the Nissan on the 900
block of Ralston Avenue after 5 p.m.,
according to police.
Prew was booked into the jail on a
charge of theft by false pretense and for
an outstanding arrest warrant out of
Santa Clara County. The car Prew rented
was returned to Hertz, according to
police.
Police described Prew as a transient
who was staying at a local hotel.
Anyone who may have information on
this incident, or any other similar crimes
involving Prew, are asked to contact
Belmont police at (650) 595-7400 or the

Asians are registered compared to other ethnic
groups, said CTDN communications special-
ist Anthony Borders. Of the 21,000
Californians who are waiting for a lifesaving
organ transplant, 20 percent are Asians,
according to a CTDN press release. However,
out of all the organs donated in 2011, less
than 3 percent came from Asians, said Kathy
Normant in a press release. Normant was a
speaker at the Millbrae event who is also liv-
ing today because of a liver transplant.
Since the need is much greater than the
availability of organs, it is important that the
API community be informed of the impor-
tance of registering and providing for those
who need it, said Borders. In 2011, about 170
Californians from the API community died
while waiting for an organ.
[We are] opening up the idea that Asian
Pacic Islanders can register, said Borders.
Theyre in need of transplants like other
patients.
The lack of registered members from the
API community may be because of cultural
challenges, said Borders. Families may want
to avoid discussing the topic of organ dona-
tion and someones death, he said. Yu also said
that older Asians believe that all the organs
should be saved when someone dies but, after
having his own life saved with the help of a
donation, he believes it is more important a
donation is made instead of being wasted.
Heaven doesnt need your organs. Leave
them on Earth, said Yu.
If it werent for someone who registered as
an organ donor, Yu, 62, would not be around
to tell his story. Originally from Hong Kong,
Yu moved to San Francisco in 1966 and had
lived a healthy life until he tested positive for
hepatitis B when he was 25, which he con-
tracted from his mother at birth. During the
1970s, he remembered there was nothing that
could be done to cure this disease, so he con-
tinued to live normally until he noticed severe
side effects in his 40s.
At age 46, he became gravely ill and doc-
tors at Stanford Hospital determined that his
liver was in the end stage, and that a trans-
plant was necessary to survive. Yu was on
the waiting list for three months, half way
through his expected survival period, when
he finally received a donor. After a 16-hour
surgery, he began the start of a very emo-
tional and physical journey back to life. He
had confidence in his transplant team and
was touched by their support.
The moment I woke up, I saw my surgeon
and team of doctors. He said Lets pray for
Mr. Yun for a speedy recovery. I had tears,
said Yun.
It took two to three years to recover fully,
including taking medication to prevent organ
rejection, relearning how to walk and sleeping
upright for half a year. His two sons were
around to support him and help with the work
at home for which he once was responsible. It
was a challenging time, but Yu said that he
was grateful for another chance at life to see
his wife and kids and appreciate what he took
for granted before.
Yu has found a new perspective on life by
trying to keep in good spirits and taking things
easy. He doesnt get angry about things and
realized there isnt a need to worry so much
about anything after having been given anoth-
er chance at life. His new lifestyle includes
taking two vacations a year and keeping in
shape by biking, walking and practicing tai
chi at his present residence in Redwood
Shores.
Yu never found out the donor was who pro-
vided the liver, only that he was a man in his
mid-40s, but he personally expressed his
indebtedness to the donors family.
I wrote them a card after the transplant to
thank them for the gift of life, he said.
Yu has now taken on the duty to inform and
inspire more people to register through his
own experience. He became a director with
the CTDN for three years and helped to pro-
mote API donor registration by publicizing
the cause at events like dragon boat festivals
and Chinese New Year festivals. He believes
though that he must reach out to as many peo-
ple as he can for this cause.
It needs to be promoted in all communi-
ties, he said.
Yet, his main way of connecting with peo-
ple is telling his personal story of gaining a
second chance through an organ transplant.
One of the most recent miracles that Yu has
witnessed was welcoming the birth of his
granddaughter only six weeks ago. It is an
event like this that emphasizes how important
it is to tell his story and encourage more peo-
ple to sign up as a donor, and potentially save
a life.
Telling your story, it introduces the idea of
organ donation. Without it, I wouldnt be
here, he said.
For more information on organ and tissue
donation or to register as a donor visit
ctdn.org, or answer Yes, I want to be a
donor when asked at the DMV.
DONATION
ical leaders noted upgrades to Caltrain will
continue to support the growing number of
commuters throughout the Peninsula.
U.S. Rep. Jackie Speier, D-San Mateo,
described it as a lifeline for the community.
She added it could be greatly improved and
will take lots of vision, as well as money, to
make that a reality.
Assemblyman Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo,
echoed her sentiments noting its important to
understand the link between economic viabil-
ity and mobility. To keep that strong, modern-
ization is needed, he said.
Use of the thoroughfare switched to more of
a hometown highway with the construction
of Highway 101 and Interstate 280, said San
Bruno Mayor Jim Ruane.
Looking forward, Ruane, like the others
pushed a plan to create more opportunities for
public transit and safely using El Camino Real
without getting in a car.
The 30-minute presentation ended with the
speakers, who also included Adrienne Tissier,
president of the San Mateo County Board of
Supervisors, reenacting the groundbreaking.
Then, a line of historic cars from the Mid
Peninsula Old Time Auto Club traveled down
El Camino Real ending at Washington Park in
Burlingame where a community picnic was
held.
The San Mateo County History Museum
will reopen an exhibit celebrating the 100th
anniversary of the California Highway System
called Journey to Work Sunday, Oct. 7.

MEXICO CITY Mexican archaeolo-
gists say they have found an unprecedented
human burial in which the skeleton of a
young woman is surrounded by piles of
1,789 human bones in Mexico Citys Templo
Mayor.
Researchers found the burial about five
meters (15 feet) below the surface, next to
the remains of what may have been a sacred
tree at one edge of the plaza, the most
sacred site of the Aztec capital.
The National Institute of Anthropology
and History said the find was the first of its
kind, noting the Aztecs were not known to
use mass sacrifice or the reburial of bones as
the customary ways to accompany the inter-
ment of a member of the ruling class.
University of Florida archaeologist Susan
Gillespie, who was not involved in the proj-
ect, called the find unprecedented for the
Aztec culture.
She said Tuesday that when the Mayas
interred sacrifice victims with royal burials,
they were usually found as complete bodies,
not jumbles of different bone types as in this
case. And, except for special circumstances,
the Aztecs, unlike other pre-Hispanic cul-
tures, usually cremated members of the elite
during their rule from 1325 to the Spanish
conquest in 1521.
Although the bodies of sacrificial victims
have been found in burials of elite persons in
Mesoamerica going back to at least the
Preclassic period, funerary deposits for
Aztec elites have only rarely been encoun-
tered, Gillespie wrote in an email.
The institute said some of the bones
showed what may be cut marks to the ster-
num or vertebrae, places where a ritual heart
extraction might leave a mark, but added that
it didnt seem likely the dead were sacrificed
on the spot to accompany the burial because
their bones were found separated.
The researchers discovered the skulls of
seven adults and three children in one pile,
long bones like femurs in another grouping,
and ribs in another.
Physical anthropologist Perla Ruiz, who
was in charge of the dig, said that might sug-
gest the bones were disinterred from previ-
ous burials and reburied with the woman.
While some pre-Hispanic cultures disin-
terred bones as part of ancestor worship, it
isnt clear the Aztecs did.
The burial dates to about 1481 to 1486,
based on the stage of temple buildings at
which they were found. The Templo Mayor,
like many sites, was rebuilt by successive
generations, one stage atop another.
Another unusual finding was the sacred
tree, actually a rather battered oak trunk
found planted on a small, round platform
near the burial at what would have been the
edge of the temple complex. It may be a cou-
ple of decades older than the burial.
The Aztecs, like other pre-Hispanic cul-
tures, venerated trees, believing they had
spiritual importance.
Institute archaeologist Raul Barrera said it
may be related to the four sacred trees the
Aztecs believed held up the sky, but
Gillespie noted it could also have been a tree
or trunk brought in for an annual ceremony.
It seems to have been positioned there for
a span of time, perhaps for a special ceremo-
ny or to create a particular vision of a sacred
landscape, but then abandoned as uses of
that limited sacred space changed over
time, Gillespie wrote.
Barrera said the tree trunk appeared to
have been split, perhaps intentionally.
