NEARLY A WEEK AFTER STORM, THOUSANDS STILL IN THE
DARK
By Michelle Durand

Consider it business not as usual.
After decades of the status quo,
County Manager John Maltbie says
it is time San Mateo County take a
hard look at how the organization is
structured and operates to keep up
with changing times.
San Mateo
County then
was an 8 to 5
operation, with
demogr aphi cs
more alike than
not, a narrow
provision of
service and high
tech dened by
correcting typewriters. The county
now is a mix of economics and
ethnicities, a wide array of services
and technology that changes nearly
as soon as it begins.
Life has changed both inside and
outside our organization, Maltbie
said.
If the county wants to keep up, it
needs to consider changing its orga-
nizational structure and way it
works, Maltbie told the Board of
Supervisors.
The county needs to attract and
retain diverse talent and create an
organizational culture of continuous
learning, Maltbie said, because
gone are the days when workers
stayed for the span of their career or
werent interested in cross-training
or exploring new areas. The coun-
tys cost and revenue models are
obsolete, the expectation of the role
and value of government have
changed and the countys relation-
ship with the state is littered with
potholes of scal instability and
eroded voter control and confi-

Report says
developer to
pay $11.7M
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Developers of the San Carlos
Transit Village, a proposed mix of
luxury units and retail space around
the train station, will pay the city an
estimated $11.7 million in fees if
given the green light, according to
an economic study of the project.
Of the total fees, $8.5 million
would be affordable housing in-lieu
fees, $507,000 would go to San
Carlos schools and $447,000 to the
Sequoia Union High School
District.
Developer Legacy Partners
Residential could provide 15 per-
cent of the units at below-market
rates to sidestep the in-lieu fee but
representatives have said that
depends on how big a project is
potentially approved by the City
Council, said Assistant City
Manager Brian Moura.
The actual size of the project also
determines how much is allotted to
schools because the calculation is
based on units and square footage,
not the number of students.
The things that happen as you
scale back the proposal is that the
city gets money instead of afford-
able housing and less money for
schools, Moura said.
The other non-school fees include

Members of the California High-
Speed Rail Authority will soon be
subject to the same nancial disclo-
sure rules as other state agency
members if Gov. Jerry Brown signs
legislation crafted by a local state
lawmaker.
Assembly Bill 41, authored by
Assemblyman Jerry Hill, D-San
Mateo, was sent to the governors
desk Thursday night. Brown has
until the end of September to con-
sider the bill and about 270 others.
AB 41 would require members of
the rail authority to disclose nan-
cial investments and close a loop-
hole that allowed board members to
receive thousands of dollars from
special interests while voting on
issues that would affect them.
Two members of the authority
reportedly received more than
$10,000 in consulting fees from
rms with nancial interests in the
project.

13 heart attack.
The 6-foot-5, 300 pound Duncan
appeared in dozens of films, including
such box office hits as Armageddon,
Planet of the Apes and Kung Fu
Panda,
Duncan had a handful of minor roles
before The Green Mile brought him
an Academy Award nomination for

corrections officer at a penitentiary in

Police arrested her again after her
nephew said he tried to remove some
of his belongings from her house and
she threw the frying pan at him.
Coffey was jailed Friday and could-
nt be reached for comment. WMUR-

she use headphones.
Lauren Anne Miller calls
on family for Good Time
NEW YORK Lauren Anne Miller
isnt afraid to talk dirty.
The 31-year-old actress stars in the
racy romp For a Good Time, Call ...
that she also produced and co-wrote
with her former college roommate
Katie Anne Naylon.
You know girls ... we talk about sex
and we talk about dirty things and in
the writing process I loved any moment
that I could write something that made
Katie blush or be like, You wrote
that? Miller said in a recent inter-
view.
In the film, roommates Lauren
(Miller) and Katie (Ari Graynor) start a
phone-sex company in their New York
City apartment. The story is loosely
based on the pairs real-life friendship.
(Naylon ran a phone-sex line out of her
Florida State dorm room.)
But the script was finished before R-
rated, female-centric comedies like
Bridesmaids and Bad Teacher
proved to be major box-office hits, so
Miller and Naylon struggled to find a
studio willing to take a risk on their
bawdy flick.
One day it hit me like a ton of
bricks, and it was like, We need to
make this happen for ourselves
because no one is going to hand us this
opportunity, Miller said.
They decided to produce it them-
selves, with family and friends helping
get the film off the ground.
Graynor signed on as executive pro-
ducer, as did Millers brother Daniel,
who helped find the funding. Millers
husband, actor Seth Rogan, appears
briefly in the movie and her father
helped in the writing process.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
With the dissolution of the citys
Redevelopment Agency, San Mateo is looking
to hire an economic development specialist to
work closely with the business community to
nd ways to ensure the citys economic vitali-
ty.
With RDA gone, the city has signicantly
diminished funding for economic develop-
ment activities, but city ofcials want to come
up with a strategy that links the city with the

Downtown San Mateo Association to nd
ways to attract new businesses to the city and
keep the ones that already operate here from

San Mateo last adopted an Economic
Development Plan in 1998 and city staff is

establish goals, objectives, policies and an
action strategy that reects the citys current
economic reality and focuses on maintaining a
healthy economy, according to a staff report
the City Council will discuss tonight.
The city is currently looking to relax zoning
codes downtown to allow for ofce uses on
ground oors and is also developing a down-
town parking study to nd ways to assure cus-
tomers can nd convenient and fairly-priced
parking.
The city is also working with the DSMA to
help market downtown and its various annual
events and has also partnered with the local
chambers Economic Development and
Growth Enterprise initiative to link the city
with its top businesses to identify shared inter-
ests and concerns.
The plan calls for developing marketing
strategies and identifying where vacant retail
and ofce uses are as well as guring out
which companies that operate in the city are
ready for expansion.
City officials will develop the new

of the next few months and the City Council is
expected to provide some direction to staff at
its meeting tonight.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TOLEDO, Ohio Parades, picnics and
politicians celebrated the American worker on
Labor Day, with President Barack Obama
seeking votes from Ohio union members and
rivals for Senate seats marching in
Massachusetts and Virginia.
But for many, Mondays holiday was a last
chance to enjoy a nal summer cookout, roller
coaster ride or day at the beach. Or perhaps
even a stroll from Michigans Upper Peninsula
to its Lower Peninsula along the longest
suspension bridge in the Western Hemisphere.
Politics was a big part of Labor Day, the
time when much of the public usually starts to
pay attention to the campaigns.
Terence Glaze, a 47-year-old reghter,
waited to catch a glimpse of Obamas motor-
cade at the presidents speech in Toledo, but
his two young sons were eager to get to the
movies instead.
Its a time for the family to be together and
just spend time with one another. Thats the
most important aspect, Glaze said.
But I do also think about the sacrices
unions have made, as it relates to wages, as it
relates to safety issues, he added.
At his speech to members of the United
Auto Workers and United Steelworkers,
Obama noted his decision to rescue automak-
ers General Motors and Chrysler in 2009 a
move opposed by his rival, Republican nomi-
nee Mitt Romney.
If America had thrown in the towel like
that, GM and Chrysler wouldnt exist today,
Obama said. The suppliers and the distribu-
tors that get their business from these compa-
nies would have died off, too. Then even Ford
could have gone down as well.
Romney supporter Kenneth Harbin, a mem-
ber of the University of Toledo College
Republicans, waved signs for his candidate
outside the rally and scoffed at Obamas deci-
sion to visit the labor stronghold.
Hes gotta come home and say, Heres
what I did for you. Now heres what you can
do for me, Harbin said.
Getting union voters in Ohio to turn out in
November will be crucial for Democrats.
About 650,000 workers in the state or 13
percent are union members.

NEW ORLEANS Tens of thousands of
customers remained in the dark Monday in
Louisiana and Mississippi, nearly a week after
Isaac inundated the Gulf Coast with a deluge
that still has some low-lying areas under
water.
Most of those were in Louisiana, where util-
ities reported more than 100,000 people with-
out power. Thousands also were without
power in Mississippi and Arkansas.
In Louisiana, many evacuees remained at
shelters or bunked with friends or relatives.
My family is split up, said Angela Serpas,
from severely flooded Braithwaite in
Plaquemines Parish. Serpas and her daughter
were staying with her in-laws while her hus-
band and son were staying in Belle Chasse, a
suburban area of the parish.
This is the second time weve lost our
home. We lost it in Katrina, she said.
Meanwhile, inspectors from the Federal
Emergency Management Agency are out try-
ing to get a handle on losses. Residents can
apply for grants to get help with home repairs
and temporary housing, among other expens-
es.
President Barack Obama was to visit
Louisiana on Monday, a day ahead of the
Democratic National Convention. He will
meet with local ofcials, tour storm damage,
and view response and recovery efforts before
addressing reporters at St. John the Baptist
Parish. Republican presidential nominee Mitt
Romney visited the state Friday. Obamas
Homeland Security Secretary, Janet
Napolitano, visited Bay St. Louis, Miss., and
Slidell, La., on Sunday.
We are part of a team to make sure
Hurricane Isaac is put to rest as soon as we can
for all those affected, Napolitano said. In the
meantime, please know all of us are thinking
about those in Louisiana who are without their
homes or without their businesses.
At least seven people were killed in the
storm in the U.S. ve in Louisiana and two
in Mississippi.
In St. John the Baptist Parish, where the
president was to visit, residents spent Labor
Day dragging waterlogged carpet and furni-
ture to the curb and using bleach and water to
clean hopefully to prevent mold.
LaPlace resident Barbara Melton swept
mud and debris from her home, which was at
one point under 2 feet of water. The garbage,
debris and standing water combined with
heat reaching the 90s created a terrible
stench.
Its hot, it stinks, but Im trying to get all
this mud and stuff out of my house, she said.
Melton was grateful for the presidents visit.
I think its awesome to have a president
that cares and wants to come out and see what
he can do, Melton, 60, said.
A few houses away, Ed Powell said Isaac
was enough to make him question whether to
stay.
I know Louisianas a gambling state, but
we dont want to gamble in this method
because when you lose this way, you lose a
lot.
Powell said even if Obama comes up with a
plan or solution to the ooding problem in his
area, time is not on the residents side.
Even if they narrow down what the prob-
lem is and begin to resolve the problem, it usu-
ally takes years. And between now and when-
ever, a lot of things can happen, Powell said.
More than 2,800 people were at shelters in
Louisiana, down from around 4,000. State
ofcials were uncertain how many people
would eventually need longer-term temporary
housing. Kevin Davis, head of the states
emergency ofce, said housing would likely
include hotels at rst, then rental homes as
close as possible to their damaged property.
Nearly a week after Isaac,
thousands still in the dark

LOCAL
dence, he said.
Maltbie is forming a task force to
gather information on workforce trends,
how services are delivered and under-
stand current ofcials thoughts and, in
particular, frustrations with how it oper-
ates.
We need to rethink what we do, why
we do it and how we do it, Maltbie said.
Supervisor Don Horsley said he is
frustrated with the slow regulatory envi-
ronment that is difcult to navigate.
We are not very nimble in dealing
with any of that, he said.
As an example, Horsley cited the more
than a year and a half hes spent trying to
get Redwood City to absorb a small
water district in his supervisorial district.
Later in the meeting, the Board of
Supervisors opted to loosen its arrange-
ment with Pleion Lineal which desig-
nates the company as the countys fur-
nishings provider a move Board
President Adrienne Tissier said was
indicative of Maltbies focus.
This is the perfect example of how
we tie our hands, Tissier said.
The county may continue to use
Pleion but removing it as the standard
allows more and sometimes less cost-
ly options, said Deputy County
Manager Peggy Jensen.
Pleion was chosen in the 1990s
because it complied with the countys
ergonomic standards but, in the dozen
years since, computers and ergonomic
tools changed. Flat screens dont require
bulky desks or corner work stations, for
example, and new work stations can be
modied to t a worker. The county
saves money by not needing to recong-
ure the work space every time a new
employee needs it.
The task force, and the board, should
look at similar policies that are no longer
applicable as a way to streamline gov-
ernment, she said.
The task force will include some
supervisors but Maltbie also asked them
to consider members of the public.
Tissier further suggested those citizens
may have some fresh eyes.
The youth perspective is also desired
since, as Tissier put it, youngsters are
moving at lightning speed and are
already 100 steps ahead of us.
Maltbie also wants the task force
brainstorming to be more than lip serv-
ice.
Once it pins down some concrete
ideas, Maltbie will bring them back to
the board for recommendations on next
steps. He anticipates returning before
Christmas.

room, while exploring some of the millions
of digitized historical artifacts and docu-
ments available on the librarys website.
Educators attending the teacher institutes
develop primary-source based teaching
strategies that they can take back to their
school districts, apply in the classroom and
pass along to colleagues. Teaching with pri-
mary sources is a powerful way to help stu-
dents ask engaged, probing questions, devel-

LaPLACE, La. President
Barack Obamas trip to the hurricane
zone three days after rival Mitt
Romney looked over ooded homes
and businesses underscores the dif-
ferences in the way the presidential
candidates see the role of govern-
ment.
So far, the presidents remarks
about the storm have focused on what
money and resources the federal gov-
ernment can marshal to help.
Romney, the Republican challenger,
used his trip Friday to emphasize the
need for charitable donations to help
people recover.
Obama was visiting Louisiana late
Monday to hear about the damage
from local ofcials, view the recov-
ery efforts and make a statement like-
ly to highlight the governments role
in the crisis. Obama was slated to
walk through hard-hit St. John the
Baptist Parish, 30 miles outside of
New Orleans. Its a small, heavily
Catholic area of about 45,000 resi-
dents. The largest city is LaPlace,
where several neighborhoods were
inundated by water and some resi-
dents were rescued from rooftops by
boats.
Greeting the president at the air-
port in New Orleans were
Republican Gov. Bobby Jindal;
members of the states congressional
delegation, including Democratic
Sens. Mary Landrieu and
Republican David Vitter, and
Landrieus brother, Mitch, the citys
mayor.
On the ight from Ohio, White
House press secretary Jay Carney
said natural disasters are apolitical,
but he jabbed at the Republican pres-
idential ticket
and their stand
on the govern-
ments role in
aiding the vic-
tims.
It is worth
noting that last
year there was an
effort to under-
fund the money
thats used to provide relief to
Americans when theyve been hit by
disasters, Carney said. That effort
was led by Congressman Paul Ryan,
who is now running to be vice presi-
dent. Ryan spokesman Brendan
Buck said the Wisconsin congress-
man believes providing aid to vic-
tims of natural disasters is a critical
obligation and should be treated as a
high priority within a scally respon-
sible budget.
Aside from drawing a distinction
with Romney on the role of govern-
ment, Obama also will signal the
advantages he has over his opponent
as a sitting president. The White
House publicized how much Obama
has done to oversee the storm
response he called governors and
mayors, received briengs by weath-
er and security advisers, and
declared states of emergency before
the storm hit.
Since the storm hit last week,
Democrats have been using the dis-
aster issue to hammer Romney and
his running mate, whose budget had
proposed eliminating $10 billion a
year in disaster spending and requir-
ing Congress to pay for emergencies
by cutting from elsewhere in the
budget. GOP leaders blocked that
proposal, and Romney hasnt said
whether he agreed with Ryans pro-
posed cuts.
Obama, Romney visits to Gulf highlight differences
By Charles Babington
CHARLOTTE, N.C. Its a
question that aides to any president
seeking re-election should be ready
to handle: Are Americans better off
now than before he took ofce?
This seemingly simple query,
however, ummoxed President
Barack Obamas team over the
Labor Day weekend, throwing the
campaign on the defensive just as the
Democrats are about to open their
national convention.
Republican Mitt Romneys cam-
paign pounced. Running mate Paul
Ryan, speaking Monday in another
North Carolina town, amped-up his
partys long-running efforts to per-
suade Americans, once and for all,
that Obamas economic record dis-
qualies him for a second term.
Democrats acknowledged that
Obamas team must get a better han-
dle on the question, an updated ver-
sion of the Ronald Reagan line that
helped sink President Jimmy Carter
in 1980.
The Obama aides halting respons-
es reected the dilemma the presi-
dent faces. If he emphasizes the eco-
nomic crisis he inherited from
President George W. Bush, then
Obama looks as though hes shirking
responsibility for current problems.
But if Obama claims positives
owing from his policies effective-
ness even with endorsements
from independent economists he
risks appearing tone-deaf and insen-
sitive to millions of voters fears in a
climate of 8.3 percent unemploy-
ment, sharply lower home values
and uncertain futures.
You can understand the Obama
campaigns ambiguity, said Ferrel
Guillory, an expert on Southern pol-
itics at the University of North
Carolina.

PESHAWAR, Pakistan A sui-
cide car bomber rammed into a U.S.
government vehicle in the north-
western city of Peshawar on
Monday, killing two Pakistanis and
wounding more than a dozen
including two Americans in one
of the worst attacks against the U.S.
in Pakistan in recent years, ofcials
said.
The bombing was a vivid
reminder of the danger of operating
in Pakistan, especially in the north-
west where Taliban and al-Qaida
militants are strongest. The U.S. has
persisted because its work in
Pakistan is seen as key to countering
militants who threaten American
interests in neighboring
Afghanistan and elsewhere.
Insurgents have carried out scores
of bombings in Peshawar in recent
years, but attacks against American
targets have been relatively rare
because of extensive security meas-
ures by the U.S. government
ones that diplomats sometimes
complain limit their effectiveness
and ability to move around.
The U.S. said it would review its
security procedures following
Mondays attack, which was con-
demned by Secretary of State
Hillary Rodham Clinton.
We pray for the safe recovery of
both American and Pakistani vic-
tims, and once again we deplore the
cowardly act of suicide bombing
and terrorism that has affected so
many around the world, Clinton
said during a visit to Indonesia.
The armored SUV from the U.S.
Consulate in Peshawar was attacked
as it traveled through a heavily
guarded area of the city that hosts
various international organizations,
including the United Nations. It was
unclear how the bomber penetrated
the area and knew which vehicle to
attack.
The car driven by the bomber was
packed with 110 kilograms (240
pounds) of explosives, police said.
The blast ripped apart the SUV
tossing its engine at least 6 meters
(20 feet) away and started a rag-
ing re. Rescue workers and resi-
dents rushed to put out the re and
pull away the dead and wounded.
All that was left of the SUV was a
charred mass of twisted metal with
a red diplomatic license plate.
The SUVs driver, Atif Nawaz,
said the blast knocked him out.
When I came to my senses, I
jumped out of my car and screamed,
`What happened? said Nawaz,
whose face and hands were badly
burned.
The attack killed two Pakistanis
and wounded 19 other people,
including police who were protect-
ing the Americans, said senior
police ofcer Javed Khan.

BEIRUT The Syrian regime
said Monday there will be no dia-
logue with the opposition before the
army crushes the rebels, the latest
sign that President Bashar Assad is
determined to solve the crisis on the
battleeld even if many more of his
people have to pay with their lives.
The statement comes a day after
activists reported that August was the
bloodiest month since the uprising
began in March 2011.
There will be no dialogue with the
opposition prior to the Syrian armys
imposition of security and stability in
all parts of the country, Information
Minister Omran al-Zoebi told
reporters at a news conference in
Damascus.
The opposition has long rejected
any talks with the regime until Assad
is removed from power.
Muhieddine Lathkani, an opposi-
tion gure based in Britain, respond-
ed to the ministers comments by say-
ing the key to any dialogue will be
the departure of Assad and disman-
tling of the regimes security agen-
cies that committed all these crimes.
Lathkani told the Associated Press
by telephone that after that happens,
there could be a dialogue.
Earlier in the day, the new U.N.
envoy to Syria acknowledged that
brokering an end to the civil war will
be a very, very difcult task.
Activists on Sunday said some
5,000 people were killed in August,
the highest toll in the 17-month-old
uprising and more than three times
the monthly average. At the same
time, the U.N. childrens fund,
UNICEF, said 1,600 were killed last
week alone, also the highest gure
for the entire revolt.

Stop jail construction now
Editor,
It is clear to me and other letter writ-
ers that the proposed jail is unneces-
sary. This project is obviously aimed at
currying favor with the construction
industry and trade unions. A vote of the
people should be required before such a
project begins.

Letter to the editor
By Jack Kirkpatrick
W
ith all the ballyhoo over the
controversy of building a
new jail and supporting
services for rehabilitation, we are
deluding ourselves regarding support-
ing services. Although we need a new
jail to address those prisoners released
under the state realignment program,
we are still without any effective reha-
bilitation programs for prisoners,
parolees and probationers. By exten-
sion, this should include wards of the
court who have been committed to
juvenile facilities for criminal behavior.
There are few longitudinal studies
that follow prisoners, parolees and pro-
bationers who were offered rehabilita-
tion services which reect measurable
results that dovetailed with comparative
data every year over a 10-year cycle.
This is as signicant as we can see
from published reports encompassing
Proposition 36, the Substance Abuse
and Crime Prevention Act of 2000,
which required adults convicted of
using or possessing drugs for personal
use generally be sentenced to drug
treatment and probation, not jail time.
As many as 24,000 nonviolent drug
possession offenders per year would be
diverted to drug treatment, instead of
being sent to prison. The result: less
than 27 percent completed the program.
Many did not show up during the initial
interview while others sent to programs
dont go. Some stay for a short time,
and nearly all relapse within days or
weeks or months. Yes, there are suc-
cesses, but there are few. And the state
pays counties $120 million to imple-
ment the program.
In 2007, San Mateo County Juvenile
Probation Department negotiated a con-
tract of $363,742 from the state to keep
all but the most serious juvenile offend-
ers housed at the local Youth Services
Center or a program choice, even if it is
in another county or state. Interestingly,
the courts have selected some minors to
be treated as adults, which may be a
good option as opposed to sending
them to the Juvenile Justice Division of
the California Department of
Corrections and Rehabilitation.
Although many local rehabilitation
programs are available, I suspect that
many do not have high success rates,
even though their data may differ from
my observation. There needs to be a
uniform, comprehensive audit and com-
pliance review with measurable results
that are followed over a 10-year period
for all referrals. Short-term follow-ups
can be easily skewed in a programs to
enhance their competitive contractual
bids. These longitudinal studies are a
necessity when it comes to public funds
being allocated for government and pri-
vate contractual programs. Even the
county programs measure the results
without looking toward the long-term
successes or failures rates and often
dened terminology or methodology
that favors a success rate. This may
require a task force who can make dis-
tinctions between differences within
programs and how they should be
assessed according to the laws, rules,
policies and procedures of that pro-
gram. After assessment, deciencies
can be corrected should there be any
shortcomings or need for added audit
items.
If we do not demand more from our
at-risk people, we will not be success-
ful in any of our entitlement programs
for the truly needy. For some reason,
many drop out of our traditional
resources, never recapture their inde-
pendence and are lost in the interim.
The specialized resources, if used, may
be helpful, but the bottom line to enti-
tlements is to get nearly everyone main-
streamed to todays requirements and
become independent. Of course, there
are some people who need a service for
the rest of their lives; they should not
be confused with the majority. We need
job training, mental health services and
addiction treatment.

The Leader-Telegram, Eau Claire, Wis.
T
he recent debate about the
future of Medicare is being
framed as the Democrats doing
nothing as the system goes broke and
the Republicans privatizing the program
so they can shove granny off a cliff.
Voters who havent been hypnotized
by the political extremes and hope-
fully there are some of those left are
clamoring for some middle ground on
which our elected leaders could work
together to head off a calamity.
The status quo is not an option. The
Medicare Trustees most recent report
predicts that after 75 years the govern-
ment health care system for retirees
will have an unfunded liability of $38.6
trillion, or nearly $330,000 per house-
hold. The trustees predict that from
2045 to 2085, tax revenues would cover
about 67 to 69 percent of projected
expenditures. Dont touch my
Medicare, indeed.
To make matters worse, current law
calls for a 31 percent cut in payment
rates to doctors for Medicaid patients
next year. However, Congress has
approved similar cutbacks every year
since 2003, and every time it has
rescinded the cuts after providers
protested.
There are some obvious things law-
makers should do but wont because
they lack the backbone lest they be
voted out of ofce. Sadly, that says
more about the ignorance of the elec-
torate and the power of negative adver-
tising than the wisdom of lawmakers
who are nothing if not survivors.
The need to lay out a plan of shared
sacrice to preserve Medicare for
future generations is crucial. That wont
happen before the election. And, sadly,
given the seemingly never-ending elec-
tion cycle, it may never happen, or at
least not until its too late.
The ticking Medicare clock
Keep on trucking
I
still havent had a banh mi. Once again, I
approached the weekly Wednesday afternoon food
truck gathering outside the Hiller Aviation Museum
in San Carlos with banh mi in my heart, or shall I say
palate, and the increasingly notorious Nom Nom truck in
my sights.
This time, I thought, this time Ill see what these
Vietnamese sandwiches are all about. This time I can say
Ive visited the truck put on the map by the first season of
Food Networks
Great Food Truck
Race and that was
admittedly a large
draw when the
weekly foodie event
began last year.
Among the grow-
ing number of food
trucks, Nom Nom
had name recogni-
tion.
Nom Nom also
had a crowd.
The snaking line
outside the truck last
summer led me to
Plan B: a bit of
lumpia loveliness,
empanada excellence and perfect paninis. In other words,
there was life without Nom Nom. On a recent return visit,
Nom Nom still remained out of reach.
When the downtown San Mateo Monday food truck
event went through a transitional period, naysayers
wagged that we might also return to a life without a glut
of mobile food options. Trucks were too trendy; trucks
were on their way out.
Obviously, these negative Nellies havent been over to
Hiller lately. If trucks meals are headed the way of fondue
parties and Jell-O molds, nobody told the crowds fighting
for parking at the hotel across the street or mulling
whether to commit to a lobster roll and chowder, discov-
ering that mac and cheese actually works on a sandwich
(dont forget the bacon!) or heading straight to a butter-
scotch-y dessert.
A maze of fabric barriers kept the hungry patrons in
line; obviously this is the modern culinary equivalent of a
velvet rope at the hottest clubs. All the event needed was
a Kardashian sister, a bevy of paparazzi and flashing cam-
eras to give it even more cachet than it apparently has
already.
But as much as I may bemoan the crowds too quote
Yogi Berra, Nobody goes there anymore. Its too crowd-
ed I will still return. Maybe for the banh mi. Mostly
for the goodies I discover when Nom Nom is too crowd-
ed.
Granted the countys civil grand jury report on truck
operations gave me a slight pause. They need better regu-
lations, it said. There arent enough safety inspections, it
warned.
But did I mention the pause was slight?
No different than when I head to a friends for dinner or
line up at any number of buffet or mass-meal events, I
assume a slight amount of risk with any food I didnt pre-
pare myself. As a side note, with the goods I cook myself
the risk assumption jumps a couple of notches.
In any case, health warnings and trendy overkill factors
not withstanding, Im thrilled to see the food truck extrav-
aganza calling Hiller home still exists and thrives.
Sometimes a downtown taqueria doesnt fill the craving.
Sometimes the fast-food joint down the street doesnt fit
the bill. At the Hiller gathering, every week is different
and every slate of truck offers a chance at enjoying a few
favorites, stumbling upon a new must-have and when
Im lucky running into people I know doing the same.
If somebody could just figure out a way to swing a liquor
license and sell a well-chilled beverage to go with the
meal, that would be the icing on the cake. In the mean-
time, Ill just enjoy the icing on the available cupcakes.
Chances are strong then, a banh mi, not to mention lots
of other delicious sounding offerings, wont be in the
future of my narrow lunch window. I cant possibly wish
an outlet ill only so that the lack of crowd means I might
grab a sandwich right before they close for good.
Instead, it continues giving me a good excuse to turn
the car toward mid-Peninsula mid-week. Ive got a goal in
mind and while it may seem a nominal wish forgive
the pun Id like to say its my attempt to keep on
trucking.

LONDON Markets started yet
another potentially crucial week on a
solid note as investors betted on more
central bank action and that China would
enact more stimulus measures following
a dispiriting manufacturing survey.
However, with Wall Street out of
action because of the Labor Day holiday,
the August trading lull continued into the
rst trading day of the new month.
Mondays trading was dominated by a
survey suggesting that Chinas manufac-
turing sector was contracting. Though
that is a bad sign for the global economy,
investors think it makes it more likely
that the countrys monetary authorities
will ease monetary policy soon.
August saw Chinese manufacturing
activity hit a three-year low, prompting a
return of the bad news is good news
trade as markets rose on expectation of
some action from the Politburo in
Beijing, said Chris Beauchamp, market
analyst at IG Index.
Options available to Beijing include
reducing interest rates, lowering the
amount banks have to hold in reserve or
increasing spending. Chinas economic
growth has already fallen to a three-year
low of 7.6 percent in the second quarter.
Hopes that more stimulus in China
was on the cards helped European mar-
kets post solid gains. Britains FTSE 100
advanced 0.8 percent to 5,758 while
Germanys DAX added 0.6 percent to
7,014. The CAC-40 in France was 1.19
percent higher at 3,453.
Investors around the world will have a
number of issues to contend with over
the rest of the week, which culminates
with Fridays U.S. nonfarm payrolls
report for August.
But before then, all eyes will be on
Thursdays European Central Bank
monthly policy meeting. Its president,
Mario Draghi, is expected to announce
details of a new bond-buying program
thats intended to keep a lid on the bor-
rowing costs of countries like Spain and
Italy.
Michael Hewson, markets analyst at
CMC Markets, warned that markets
may once again be getting ahead of
themselves again as Draghi may wish
to wait to hear the verdict of German
constitutional court on the legality of the
European Stability Mechanism,
Europes planned bailout fund. The rul-
ing is expected on September 12.
Hopes that the ECB will play a more
crucial role in the debt crisis have helped
support the euro in recent weeks. After
nearly dropping to near two-year lows
below $1.20, the euro has pushed back
above $1.25. Its trading 0.14 percent
higher Monday at $1.2595.
The U.S. payroll gures, which often
set the market tone for a week or two
after their release, could be particularly
important this month too. Last Friday,
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben
Bernanke suggested that more central
bank action was possible to support the
U.S. economy so a bad set of data could
mean persuade investors to think the Fed
will act sooner rather than later. Previous
Fed stimulus packages have shored up
markets as the fresh liquidity on offer
made its way round nancial markets.
Earlier in Asia Monday, stocks closed
mostly higher. Japans Nikkei 225 shed
earlier gains to close 0.6 percent lower at
8,783.89. Hong Kongs Hang Seng
added 0.4 percent to 19,559.21 and
South Koreas Kospi climbed 0.4 percent
to 1,912.71.

The nations oil and gas hub along the
Gulf Coast is slowly coming back to life
in the aftermath of Hurricane Isaac.
Offshore oil platforms are beginning
to ramp up production as crews are
returning. Reneries are beginning to
restart units as power is restored and
oodwaters are cleared out.
While a substantial amount of oil and
gas production remains off line, produc-
tion is coming back as expected. No
major damage to oil platforms or rener-
ies have been reported, and no further
storm-related spikes in energy prices are
expected.
The Bureau of Safety and
Environmental Enforcement said
Monday that 800,000 barrels per day of
oil production remained ofine, 58 per-
cent of Gulf of Mexico production.
About 100,000 barrels per day of pro-
duction was restored between Sunday
and Monday.
At the height of the storm 1.3 million
barrels per day of oil production was
suspended. The U.S. consumes an aver-
age of 19 million barrels of petroleum
every day.
Companies have been quickly return-
ing workers to platforms. About 12 per-
cent of the regions platforms were still
without staff. Nearly all of the Gulfs
offshore platforms and rigs were evacu-
ated last week.
Nine reneries in the path of Isaac are
restarting or operating at reduced rates,
according to the Energy Department.
One renery has returned to full opera-
tion and one, the Belle Chasse, La.,
renery operated by Phillips 66, is still
shut down because it is still without
power.
The company said Sunday most of the
oodwater had been cleared from the
renery and most renery personnel had
returned to work to prepare the plant for
re-start when power was restored. On
Monday, the company said there was no
update to the renerys status.
The national average price of gasoline
rose 11 cents last week as Isaac threat-
ened the Gulf Coast and then swept
ashore with high winds and ooding
rains.
Oil and gas production ramping up post Isaac
China manufacturing weakens, services grow
BEIJING Chinas manufacturing decelerated further in
August while construction and services grew at a slow rate,
according to two surveys Monday, adding to conicting sig-
nals about whether the countrys slowdown is bottoming out.
HSBC Corp. said its purchasing managers index fell to 47.6
from Julys 49.3 on a 100-point scale on which numbers below
50 represent a contraction. It was the tenth month of decline
and the lowest reading since more than three years ago in
March 2009. Manufacturing companies shed jobs at their
fastest rate in 41 months, HSBC said. New orders and export
orders also declined.
Beijing must step up policy easing to stabilize growth and
foster job market conditions, HSBCS China economist,
Hongbin Qu, said in a statement.
Also Monday, the National Bureau of Statistics said its
index of non-manufacturing activity rose to 56.3 from Julys
55.6. A sub-index for construction activity rose to 61.1 from
Julys 60.4. The index also covers industries such as air travel
and telecommunications.
Valeant agrees to pay about $2.6B for Medicis
TORONTO Valeant Pharmaceuticals International Inc.
has agreed to buy dermatology products maker Medicis
Pharmaceutical Corp. for about $2.6 billion in cash in a deal to
strengthen its position in skin treatments and care.
Montreal-based Valeant, Canadas largest publicly-traded
pharmaceuticals company, said Monday that it has agreed to
pay $44 per share for Medicis, a 39 percent premium over
Fridays closing price of $31.87 for the Scottsdale, Ariz., tar-
get company.
The boards of both companies have approved the deal. It
needs approval by Medicis shareholders and regulatory clear-
ance. The companies hope to complete the deal in early 2013.
Valeant Chairman and CEO J. Michael Pearson said the deal
would be a signicant next step toward making his compa-
ny the leader in dermatology by expanding its products to treat
acne as well as injectable aesthetic products often used to
smooth out wrinkles and make people look younger.

The good and the bad of prep Week 0
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
The opening weekend of San Mateo county
prep football was a mixed bag with its fair
share of surprises.
But if youre all about the wins and losses,
then a 5-11-1 record isnt the most eye-pleas-
ing.
Among the most surprising outcomes is
South Citys 27-6 loss to Santa Clara. The
Warriors lone score came in the third quarter
behind Orlando Garcias 13-yard run. From
there, the South City defense had a hard time
stopping Adrian Gutierrez, who ran for two
touchdowns for Santa Clara.
On the other side of the spectrum, Carlmont
High School has to be very pleased with its
effort in the season opener. The Scots domi-
nated The Kings Academy 33-0 behind
impressive performances by Mark Concilla
(two touchdowns on the ground) and Diairea
James, who threw for two scores, both to Matt
Stalun.
Serra traveled to Wilcox High School and
the initial look at their defense appears to be
quite positive. The Padres won 30-6, getting
big games on defense by Fia Malapeai, Cody
Brown, Matt Jacobs and Jason Lower.
On offense, Serra racked up 137 yards in
the air, courtesy of Zack Kazakoff and his 8 of
16 passing, plus 224 yards on 53 team carries
(Eric Redwood led the way with 87 yards on
19).
Sacred Heart Prep, Menlo-Atherton,
Sequoia and Menlo School picked up opening
week victories.
MENLO OAKS LOSE FIRST GAME
Menlo colleges bid to break their all-time
winless streak to Lineld fell short over the
weekend as the Oaks were downed 30-9 to the
fth ranked, NCAA DIII Wildcats.
The loss makes it 14 straight against
Lineld as Menlo pulled their 2012 record to
an even 1-1.
Turnovers were the big difference maker
with the Oaks surrendering the football on
four separate occasions three fumbles and
an interception. The Wildcats turned those
four turnovers into 21 points.
Menlo put together a solid game on the
ground, rushing for 147 in the rst career
Oaks loss for rst year head coach Mark
Speckman. Matt Pelasasa and Joey Evans
both led the charge with 51 yards gained,

t was a tough opener for Peninsula
Athletic League football teams as they
combined to go 5-11-1 on the rst
weekend of the season.
There was one team, however, who man-
aged to stay clean:
Aragon, both on the
eld and in the stand-
ings. Thats because,
while the rest of the
PAL was busy getting
starting its season,
Aragon coach Steve
Sell loaded his team
on a bus and headed
to Stanford Stadium
to watch Stanford beat
San Jose State 20-17.
Its a way to let
them (the team) know
its not all business,
Sell said. Its kind of strange to take a trip
on a bus and you havent had a win or a
loss.
While a majority of teams opened their
seasons last weekend, technically, its called
Zero Week, not Week 1. When teams
play a game during Zero Week, it means they
will have a bye at some point during the sea-
son. Aragon, since it didnt play, will now
play straight 10 straight weekends without a
break.
Some say its great to have a bye in the
middle of the season, but I dont really think
so, Sell said. You go, go, go in game mode
and then the kids have a week of practice
without a game.
More than that, however, Sell just doesnt
feel prepared. As a coach, father, teacher and
athletic director, Sell just has too much going
Aragon emerges
unscathed from

McIlroy holds on at Deutsche
REUTERS
McIlroy of Northern Ireland tees off on the ninth hole during the nal round of the Deutsche Bank Championship golf tournament.
NORTON, Mass. In a Labor Day nish
lled with some of golfs biggest names, Rory
McIlroy sent his stock soaring in the Deutsche
Bank Championship.
McIlroy overcame a three-shot deficit
Monday in ve holes, and then overcame a
few mistakes on the nal two holes to close
with a 4-under 67 and escape with a one-shot
victory over Louis Oosthuizen.
McIlroy joined Tiger Woods as the only
three-time winners on the PGA Tour this year,
and with one of his wins being the PGA
Championship, that might be enough for his
peers to vote him player of the year. He also
nally built a comfortable gap at No. 1 in the
world.
Oosthuizen had a 12-foot birdie putt on the
18th hole to force a playoff, only it slid by on
the right side for a 71.
Woods made an early charge to get back in
the hunt, though he never got closer than three
shots until a two-putt birdie on the par-5 18th
gave him a 66. He nished in third place, two
shots behind, and earned enough money to
become the rst player to surpass $100 mil-
lion in PGA Tour earnings.
Phil Mickelson also had a 66 and tied for
fourth, along with Dustin Johnson, who had a
70 and likely played his way onto the Ryder
Cup team. Brandt Snedeker made a strong

Pistorius moves to diffuse
Paralympics blades row
LONDON After years as the poster boy
of the Paralympics, a chastened Oscar
Pistorius moved Monday to defuse the row
that threatens to blemish the clean-cut image
he forged during a protracted struggle for
acceptance within his sport.
Throughout numerous legal ghts to be
allowed to compete alongside able-bodied
rivals, Pistorius could at least always count on
returning as the icon of the Paralympics and
collecting gold medals.
But the era of Paralympic invincibility for
the so-called Blade Runner appeared to end
when his bid for a third straight gold in the
200 meters was thwarted Sunday night by
another double amputee on carbon ber pros-
thesis.
Victory seemed certain for Pistorius when
he reached the bend on the London track, but
Alan Oliveira of Brazil came storming down
the home straight on his blades to overtake the
defending champion.
Rather than hailing his rival, Pistorius
accused the 20-year-old Brazilian of gaining
an unfair edge by using lengthened blades.
Thats despite spending years himself con-
vincing authorities that he should be allowed
to compete in the Olympics a feat he
achieved last month because his prosthesis
did not inuence his athletic capabilities.
Having called on the world to focus on the
abilities of athletes rather than their disabili-
ties before the London Games, Pistorius has
shifted the spotlight back onto the advantage
technology might provide.
To many, the South African sounded like a
sore loser by launching his tirade within min-
utes of his rst ever Paralympic loss in the
200, failing to defend the rst of three titles
from Beijing.

Chris Iannettas 3 hits lead Angels past As
By Janie McCauley
OAKLAND Chris Iannetta hit a two-run
homer in a three-hit day, Vernon Wells had a
solo shot and RBI single, and the Los Angeles
Angels snapped the Oakland Athletics sea-
son-best nine-game winning streak with an 8-
3 win Monday.
C.J. Wilson (11-9) shut down the red-hot
Athletics in the Angels sixth victory in the
last seven. Oakland had all the momentum
coming off a commanding sweep of the Red
Sox in which the As outscored Boston 33-5.
Torii Hunter led off the third with a solo
homer and added a sacrice y in the sixth for
the Angels. Wells hit his 10th homer to start
the fourth and No. 9 hitter Iannetta connected
in the sixth.
Wilson outpitched fellow lefty Tommy
Milone (11-10) to win back-to-back starts for
the rst time since June 19 and 26.
Josh Donaldson hit a leadoff homer in the
fth and Josh Reddick added an RBI single
for the As, who lead the AL wild-card race.
They have homered in 10 straight games and
have 22 during that stretch.
Chris Carter hit a solo drive in the eighth off
LaTroy Hawkins. But Oakland missed a
chance to tie the clubs longest winning streak
since a 10-gamer during their last playoff sea-
son of 2006.
Milone was knocked out of the game after
giving up ve runs in a season-low three
innings. The rookies 10 hits allowed matched
the most he has surrendered this year and he
lost for the rst time in four starts.
And the Angels failed to do more damage in
the rst inning. Mike Trout and Hunter each
singled to start the game before Albert Pujols
grounded into a double play and Mark
Trumbo ied out.
Trout also stole his AL-leading 43rd base in
the sixth. Wells, not known to be the most
patient at the plate, drew two walks, reached
base four times, scored two runs and had his
third steal.
The Angels won this one the way the As
had been doing it in recent days: jumping on
the opposing starting pitcher right away.
Wells and Iannetta hit consecutive RBI sin-
gles in the second for Los Angeles, trying to
gain ground on the As in the wild card.
Iannetta is batting .386 (22 for 57) with 12
RBIs over his last 16 games.
Angels manager Mike Scioscia said before
the game he is unsure whether Jered Weaver
(16-4) will be able to pitch Friday as planned
back home against Detroit. Weaver was struck
on the right arm by a line drive from Dustin
Ackleys bat in the fth inning of his loss
Sunday at Seattle.
Jered is a little tender where he got hit,
Scioscia said. Were going to wait and see
how hes feeling.
NOTES: The Angels are 4-3 at the
Coliseum this season but trail the season
series 7-6. ... Oakland recalled RHP Tyson
Ross from Triple-A Sacramento and he will
work out of the bullpen as an option for long
relief. ... As manager Bob Melvin said it
might be a long-shot for the team to get INF
Eric Sogard back from a high ankle sprain. He
hurt the ankle while on a minor league rehab
assignment after missing time with a strained
back.
Big lead lost, Giants
rally for walk-off win
By Antonio Gonzalez
SAN FRANCISCO Marco Scutaro hit
an RBI single in the 10th inning after Buster
Poseys tying double in the ninth, and the San
Francisco Giants rallied to beat the Arizona
Diamondbacks 9-8 on Monday.
Brandon Crawford beat out a single to short
leading off the nal inning
and moved to second
when Brett Pill dropped
his first career sacrifice
bunt. Angel Pagan ground-
ed out to rst to advance
Crawford to third.
Scutaro sent the final
fastball from Bryan Shaw
(1-5) past diving third
baseman Chris Johnson
for San Franciscos seventh walk-off win.
Scutaro also doubled and scored the tying run
in the ninth to help hand J.J. Putz his second
straight blown save.
Putz had converted 19 consecutive saves
until blowing a chance against the Dodgers on
Sunday.
Sergio Romo (4-2) pitched a perfect 10th
for the Giants.
Scutaro hit a double to left leading off the
ninth against Putz and moved to third on
Pablo Sandovals groundout. Posey doubled
down the left-eld line to score Scutaro.
Putz intentionally walked Hunter Pence
and struck out Xavier Nady swinging. With a
full count and an announced sellout crowd of
42,045 roaring to its feet, he struck out
Hector Sanchez and quieted AT&T Park.
At least for a little.
The Giants, coming off a 5-1 road trip
against Chicago and Houston, returned home
with a 4 1/2-game lead over the Dodgers in
the NL West. The loss gave Arizona, now 10
1/2 back of San Francisco, another blow to its
fading playoff hopes.
The Giants handed starter Barry Zito plenty
of support in the rst inning.
On a relatively warm, windless day by San
Francisco standards, Poseys y carried over
the head of right elder Justin Upton and off
the scoreboard for a double that scored
Scutaro. Pence followed with a two-run triple
and Sanchezs ineld single gave the Giants a
4-0 lead.
Zito struck out ve of the rst seven he
faced and had Arizonas hitters chasing pitch-
es all over the zone and in the dirt until he
didnt.
In the fth, Chris Johnson sent an 80 mph
cutter over the wall in left for his 14th home
run, a two-run shot that sliced San Franciscos
lead to 4-2. Zito was replaced by Guillermo
Moto after allowing consecutive singles to
Upton and Jason Kubel to open the sixth.
Arizona sent ten batters to the plate in the
inning while getting an RBI from ve differ-
ent players Johnson, Paul Goldschmidt,
Willie Bloomquist, Chris Young and Aaron
Hill to take a 7-4 lead. Goldschmidts dou-
ble was the only extra-base hit.
Zito gave up four runs and seven hits and
struggled to go deep for the second straight
start. Arizona starter Patrick Corbin followed
suit, allowing four runs and seven hits in ve
innings. Both struck out six and walked none.
Zito left with a 4-2 lead, a light ovation from
fans and a mess Mota couldnt clean up. Mota,
who came back last week following a 100-
game suspension for his second positive drug
test, gave up two hits and a walk before the
boo-birds pelted the pitcher until he exited.
Sandoval singled home Angel Pagan in the
seventh as San Francisco began its own rally.
After Upton added an RBI single for
Arizona in the eighth, Crawford hit an RBI
double and pinch-hitter Brandon Belt fol-
lowed with a two-out single to bring the
Giants within a run.

SPORTS 13
By Josh Dubow
ALAMEDA The Oakland Raiders com-
pleted their offseason overhaul of the corner-
back unit Monday by signing recently
released Joselio Hanson and cutting 2011
third-round pick DeMarcus Van Dyke.
Hanson had been released last week by
Philadelphia after spending six seasons as the
Eagles nickel cornerback, where he excelled
playing in the slot.
Hes been a guy thats played a lot of years
in the league in the slot and we just felt like it
was a good thing to get another veteran guy in
there with what really amounts to a young
room. And so we thought that was something
that helped us and upgraded our team and
made us better, coach Dennis Allen said.
The move to get rid of Van Dyke means all
six cornerbacks on the Oakland roster are new
to the organization. Oakland released starters
Stanford Routt and Chris Johnson before the
start of free agency, let Lito Sheppard leave as
a free agent, and released both cornerbacks
taken in the 2011 draft. The team is transition-
ing from the bump-and-run style preferred by
former owner Al Davis to Allens new defense
that will feature more zone coverage.
The Raiders waived fourth-round pick
Chimdi Chekwa on Friday before bringing
him back to the practice squad, then cut ties
with Van Dyke on Monday.
Free-agent acquisitions Ron Bartell and
Shawntae Spencer are slated as the starters,
with Hanson expecting to get time in nickel
packages. Pat Lee, Phillip Adams and Coye
Francies round out the cornerback group, with
Adams and Francies being added in the past
week.
As things played out throughout OTAs,
minicamp and in training camp, we felt like
that was a position that we needed to try to
upgrade and we felt like with the players that
we brought in here that it helps us as a team to
be better, Allen said.
Hanson spent one season as an undrafted
free agent with San Francisco before joining
the Eagles in 2006. He has played 104 games
with 19 starts and four interceptions. He
played mostly in the slot for the Eagles and
allowed 21 catches on 42 attempts for 232
yards and two touchdowns, according to
game-tracking numbers compiled by STATS
LLC.
Over the last four seasons, Hanson has
allowed opponents to complete 54.5 percent
of their passes for an average of 5.3 yards per
attempt and a 76.5 passer rating against.
Its mostly his intelligence, Allen said.
Hes really smart. Hes got good quickness
inside and so he matches up with some of the
smaller, quicker slot receivers. I just think he
just understands route combinations and how
things happen inside in the slot, and I think
thats the biggest learning adjustment that
anybody that goes in and plays the nickel posi-
tion.
Allen said Hanson seemed to grasp the
defense quickly in his meetings with the
coaching staff and could be able to contribute
in the opener next Monday against San Diego.
I feel like in the next couple of days Ill get
it down, Hanson said. I went over the whole
playbook already, so its just now about all
about studying and reiterating it to myself. Its
the same defense, a 4-3 defense, its just dif-
ferent names, different plays, but once I get
that down Ill be ready to go.
Van Dyke was a prototypical Al Davis play-
er, having run the fastest 40-yard dash time at
the NFL combine in 2011 at 4.28 seconds.
That contributed to the Raiders taking him in
the third round despite the fact Van Dyke start-
ed just three games his senior season at
Miami.
Van Dyke had difculty in his rst presea-
son and saw limited action as a rookie.

Francisco 49ers are down a key member of
their talented defense heading into Week 1
after placing outside linebacker Parys
Haralson on season-ending injured reserve
Monday.
San Francisco also signed linebacker Clark
Haggans to a one-year contract to help ll the
void as the defending NFC West champions
prepare for Sundays season opener at Green
Bay.
The Niners announced the roster moves
during an off day Monday without providing
details on Haralsons injury, though he is
believed to have hurt his left arm during the
rst half of a preseason win at Denver on Aug.
26. He didnt play in Thursday nights exhibi-
tion nale, a 35-3 win over the San Diego
Chargers at Candlestick Park.
Afterward, all coach Jim Harbaugh would
say when asked about Haralsons status was
that hes working through something a
common, vague phrase used by the reigning
NFL Coach of the Year when it comes to
acknowledging injuries.
Haralson had been among the 11 returning
starters for 2012 on Vic Fangios defense that
ranked No. 1 at stopping the run during a
resurgent 13-3 season. But he was set to begin
the season as a backup to Ahmad Brooks and
Aldon Smith, who set a rookie franchise
record with 14 sacks last year.
The 28-year-old Haralson, San Franciscos
fifth-round draft pick in 2006 out of
Tennessee, started all but one game over the
past three seasons: 16 last year, 15 in 2010 and
16 in 09. He recorded 30 tackles, three forced
fumbles and two sacks last year as San
Francisco snapped an eight-year playoff
drought.

defenders on the injured reserved. Parys
Haralson had missed just one start in the past
three season at linebacker.

on with the start of school both for his
own family and at Aragon that he believes
he cant give the football team his undivided
attention.
Honestly, the beginning of the year is
always so hectic, Im just not ready, Sell
said. The last time we played in Zero Week
was against Pioneer in 2009. I remembered
before we got on the bus, I was literally
drawing stuff up, last-minute stuff. We
played the game without critical players. I
thought, This is stupid.
Sell believes the extra week gives his team
that much more time to prepare for its rst
opponent in this case San Mateo Friday
night. Also, it allows Sell to nish up the
paperwork necessary to get kids who have
transferred to Aragon eligible to play.
In the end, however, the extra week is
Sells time to mentally prepare for the sea-
son.
Eighty percent of [the reason not to play
Zero Week] is for my own sanity, Sell said.

Now that football season is upon us, its
time for annual how to do things properly
portion of the year. Its that time I tell play-
ers and support staff how to seamlessly get in
a groove for the season. Ive mentioned all
this stuff in the past, so consider it a refresh-
er course.
For players, the rst couple weeks of the
season is usually marred by leg cramps. You
go from practicing against each other for
months and then, when you get to actual
game time, emotions and adrenaline are run-
ning high. Next thing you know, youre
writhing around on the ground with a calf
muscle in a knot. At that point, no amount of
water is going to get you back to full
strength.
Instead, players need to be hydrating dur-
ing the week leading up to the game. Drink
as much water as you can during the week
and continue drinking water during the game
whether you feel you need it or not.
For support personnel, if there is one thing
I can stress, its this pay attention to the
game. It may seem like a small detail, but I
assure you, its the best thing you can do if
youre working the chain gang, the clock or
even serving as a water boy on the sideline.
Just a couple points for clock operators.
While its best to always keep your eye on
the ofcials, just know that if a pass is
incomplete, stop the clock. If a ball carrier
goes out of bounds, stop the clock. For
announcers, if you dont know what the actu-
al yardage picked up on a play was or dont
know where the ball is being marked, dont
say anything. I suggest you have a spotter
with you to help you keep track of the line of
scrimmage yard marker as well help gure
out how many yards were gained on a play.
Water boys you really only have to
worry about going out to the eld to give
water 12 times a game six timeouts per
team, three a half. Occasionally, you can also
run out during an injury timeout, but if
youre paying attention, you wont have the
coaching staff or other players screaming for
water.
Also, make sure to give players plenty of
water during the game. Force them to drink
it, it will keep them hydrated during the
game and you will be making an impact.
As for chain gangs, just pay attention to
the side judge working with you. Keep your
place if there is a ag on the play and hustle
down the sideline when called on. Its always
good to anticipate a little bit about where you
could be setting up for the next series, but
again, the No. 1 thing to do is watch the of-
cials.
So there you go, enjoy the new football
season.

Just wanted to weigh in on a little bit of
college football. Cal coach Jeff Tedford,
already on the hot seat following a number
of mediocre seasons, just saw the tempera-
ture gauge move from simmer to medium
following the Golden Bears 31-24 loss to
visiting University of Nevada Saturday after-
noon.
Nevada is a decent program that runs a
unique Pistol offense kind of a hybrid
spread system but there is no way the
Wolfpack should have run up 450 yards of
offense against any Pac-12 school.
If Cal doesnt get things turned around in a
hurry, Tedford may not make it to the end of
the season. Hes done a lot of good things to
turn around the Cal program, but that was
early in his career. The program has been
stalled in neutral the last couple of seasons.
If things dont change fast, he may not get to
take advantage of the new facilities Cal just
nished installing.

case for a captains pick with a 65-67 week-
end to nish sixth.
Davis Love III will announce his four picks
Tuesday morning in New York.
McIlroy didnt make it easy on himself. The
23-year-old from Northern Ireland had a
three-shot lead with six holes to play, and only
a clutch bogey putt on the 17th hole kept him
from losing all of his lead.
Oosthuizen, who had to cope with pain in
his right shoulder earlier in the round, came
back with two birdies on the back to get with-
in one shot. McIlroy hit a chip over the 17th
green into more rough, and it looked as if he
would struggle to make bogey. Oosthuizen,
however, chipped poorly to 10 feet and missed
his par putt, and Boy Wonder calmly sank his
5-foot bogey putt to stay one shot ahead.
I didnt nish off the way I would have
liked, McIlroy said. But I got there in the
end. Im very happy.
McIlroy nished 20-under 264 and moved
to No. 1 in the FedEx Cup, assuring he will
have a shot at the $10 million bonus at the
Tour Championship later this month.
It was the second time this year that
Oosthuizen, who won the British Open by
seven shots at St. Andrews two years ago,
failed to win after leading going into the nal
round. McIlroy made an early charge with
three straight birdies, but the turning point
came on the fth hole when Oosthuizen felt
pain in his shoulder on a tee shot that sailed
into the trees and led to double bogey.
The pain went away on the back, which the
South African attributed to an adrenaline rush.
As always at the TPC Boston, this was quite
a show on a late summer day in New England.
This is the tournament that delivers duels
between Woods and Vijay Singh (twice) and
Woods and Mickelson. This time, all of them
had eeting hopes of winning.
McIlroy and Oosthuizen turned it into a
two-man race, with Woods lurking until he
couldnt convert enough putts. In the end, nei-
ther could Oosthuizen. He missed from just
inside 10 feet for par on the 17th and from 12
feet on the 18th.
I probably made all my putts yesterday,
Oosthuizen said.
McIlroy becomes the youngest player with
ve PGA Tour wins since Woods, who had 15
wins at age 23.
There was other drama at the Deutsche
Bank Championship, though it was not nearly
as compelling as the top of the leaderboard.
Charley Hoffman went from the rst page
of the leaderboard to an unimaginable col-
lapse until he steadied himself at the end.
Hoffman, who was 13 under after a birdie
on the eighth hole, played his next nine
holes in 8-over par, including a quadruple-
bogey 7 on the par-3 11th. He came to the
18th needing a par to finish among the top
70 in the FedEx Cup and advance to the
third playoff event next week in
Indianapolis.
He went over the green in two, barely
chipped onto the putting surface, and then
ran his putt 12 feet by the hole. He made the
putt for par, and moves on.
I didnt expect to be playing next week,
Hoffman said. Shooting 42 on the back
nine, I dont think I deserved to play next
week. But I guess Ive got another chance.
Others who advanced included Dicky Pride,
who birdied his last two holes to get the 70th
spot by one stroke over Jonas Blixt.

Sports brief
No talks between NFL and
referee union as season nears
NEW YORK Ofcially at least in
their comments NFL players and coaches
arent concerning themselves with refereer-
ing.
The NFL and its locked-out officials
werent talking two days before the season
begins, a clear indication replacements will be
on the eld for Wednesday nights opener.
Doesnt matter, according to many of the
guys who call the plays or carry them out.
Were going to play the games regardless,
Chargers All-Pro safety Eric Weddle said
Monday.
Everyone makes mistakes. I make mis-
takes. Its just the way human nature is. You
cant get hard on guys that are trying to do the
best they can. Youve just got to deal with it.
Each week, each game, each practice,
theyll get better, so its not a concern of ours.
Regardless, weve got to go out there and exe-
cute and take it out of their hands. Lets go out
and play good football, execute at a high level
and then they wont be in position to throw
ags and make judgment calls.

while Thomas Reynolds ran for 15 yards
on three carries.
Linelds Josh Hill led all rushers with
113 yards on the ground.
Michael Alexander led all players with
ve receptions, totaling 76 yards, while
Robert Adan snatched three passes for
23 yards.
Defensively, the Oaks did not record a
sack, but junior Dylan Bunll led the
unit with seven total tackles and two
pass breakups.
Pelasasa ended the afternoon 9 of 15
for 118 yards, turning the ball over three
times on two fumbles and one intercep-
tion.
The Wildcats broke the scoreless clash
early in the second quarter, after the two
squads traded zeros over the rst 15 min-
utes of play. Lineld began its rst scor-
ing drive at the Menlo 45, after the
Wildcats grabbed one of the Oaks three
costly fumbles. Eight plays later, Mickey
Inns connected with senior wide receiv-
er Diedre Wiersma for a 14-yard touch-
down to give Lineld a 7-0 lead.
Less than ve minutes later, Inns and
the rest of the Wildcats offense was at it
again. On the ensuing Lineld drive,
Inns hooked up with senior Lucas
Jepson on a 40-yard scoring strike to cap
off a 6-play, 82-yard touchdown drive
that doubled up the score at 14-0 in favor
of the Wildcats.
Menlo would go into the half with
points on the board, thanks to sopho-
more Benjamin Vega splitting the
uprights on a 31-yard eld goal to make
it a 14-3 affair as the two teams headed
for intermission.
It wasnt until 7:13 left in the game
that the Oaks would add to their three,
behind a Pelasasa rush from 4 yards out
to chop the decit to 30-9.

to aforementioned Sacred Heart Prep.

Sports brief
Williams wins 6-0, 6-0 at US Open; Fish withdraws
NEW YORK Didnt take long for Serena Williams to
show her fourth-round opponent at the U.S. Open where
things were headed.
The rst point of the whole match, 82nd-ranked Andrea
Hlavackova explained, when I served, and she returned, like,
a 100 mph forehand return, I was like, OK, I know who Im
playing. You dont have to prove it to me. I know.
Mondays match was less than 15 seconds old. It might as
well have been over.
Dominant from the moment she ripped that return of an 88
mph second serve, forcing Hlavackova into an out-of-control
backhand that sailed well long, to the moment she powered a
116 mph service winner on the last point, Williams extended
her 2 1/2-month stretch of excellence with a 6-0, 6-0 victory
to get to the quarternals at Flushing Meadows.
Those two big zeros pretty much tell the story; its the fth
time in her career Williams won with whats commonly called
a double bagel. Some other impressive numbers: Williams
won 60 of 89 points, built a 31-9 edge in winners and
improved to 23-1 since losing in the rst round of the French
Open. That run includes singles and doubles titles at both
Wimbledon and the London Olympics.
Hlavackova knows this act all too well: She and Lucie
Hradecka were the doubles runners-up at both of those events.
Not that those 2-on-2 encounters helped prepare for the 1-on-
1 match in Arthur Ashe Stadium on Monday.
NEW YORK Bob Bryan insists he
didnt plan it. Mike Bryan says thats a
good thing.
But if the Bryan brothers end up win-
ning the U.S. Open, certainly the
between-the-legs trick shot Bob pulled
off Monday executed when the broth-
ers were two points away from losing
their third-round match will go down
as one of the most memorable shots
either man has hit over careers featuring
11 Grand Slam titles and an Olympic
gold medal.
There were 20 different options,
Mike Bryan said. He picked the 21st.
Tied at 5 in the second-set tiebreaker,
Bob Bryan was standing in the doubles
alley, facing the net when Santiago
Gonzalez rocketed a ball toward his mid-
section. Bryan stuck the racket behind
him and between his legs to knock it
back, then, after the ball came back
again, he closed out the point with an
acutely angled, inside-out forehand win-
ner.
The Bryans went on to beat Gonzalez
and Scott Lipsky 6-7 (8), 7-6 (5), 6-3 to
advance to the quarternals.
Bob Bryan called it the kind of shot
kids hit while theyre on the back, prac-
tice courts playing mini-tennis.
If I was a coach, Id tell my student
never to do that, he said. Or never do it
again. Its something you dont want to
try at home.
On the next point, Mike Bryan hit a
perfectly placed topspin lob for a winner
to close out the second set. Relatively
traditional by this days standards,
though Mike celebrated by doing the
lawn mower kneeling down and
pumping his st a few times.
Its the kind of move he says he nor-
mally reserves for Davis Cup matches,
though after those points, the Bryans
said the Grandstand court had that kind
of feel to it.

NCAA investigating
UCLA hoops recruits
LOS ANGELES UCLA freshmen Kyle
Anderson and Tony Parker are being investi-
gated by the NCAA for potential basketball
recruiting violations, according to a
Scout.com report.
Freshman Shabazz Muhammad has been
the subject of an ongoing NCAA investigation
involving alleged improper benefits he
received in his recruitment from boosters of
his AAU program. The forward from Las
Vegas was one of the nations mostly highly
sought-after recruits last spring when he
chose UCLA over Kentucky and Duke.
The report posted Sunday on Scout.coms
website, which cites unspecied sources close
to the situation, says the NCAA is looking
into allegations of violations involving
Anderson and Parker.
It says sources have indicated another col-
lege basketball program turned in evidence of
violations in the recruitments of Muhammad,
Anderson and Parker. The report said it was
unknown whether UCLA was specically
named in the alleged violations.

By Jeff Barnard
GRANTS PASS, Ore. Nina Musselman
had no trouble nding a family doctor when
she retired to rural Oregon nine years ago to
be closer to her children. But then that doctor
moved away, leaving her to search for anoth-
er who would take Medicare.
After a year of going from doctor to doctor,
she nally found one who stuck.
As record numbers of baby boomers go into
retirement, many are thinking about moving
from the places they needed to live to make a
living, and going someplace warmer, quieter
or prettier.
If they choose small towns like Grants Pass,
250 miles south of Portland, they could well
have a hard time nding a family doctor will-
ing to take Medicare, even supplemental
plans, rather than private insurance.
Its a sad situation for seniors, she said.
There are several reasons boomers, the 78
million Americans born between 1946 and
1964, could face difculties nding a doctor if
they retire to small towns over the next 20 years.
First, many primary care doctors prefer to
live and work in urban areas because of
greater cultural opportunities, better schools
and job opportunities for spouses.
Also, Medicare pays rural doctors less per
procedure than urban physicians because their
operating costs are supposedly less. That
makes rural doctors less likely to accept
Medicare patients.
With cuts to Medicare reimbursement for
doctors targeted under the federal health care
overhaul, the shortage is likely to get even
worse, said Mark Pauly, professor of health
care management at the University of
Pennsylvania.
That is, unless increasing reimbursements
for nurse practitioners and physicians assis-
tants encourages those providers to take up
the slack, Pauly said.
If the Medicare cuts go through, the doc-
tors are saying: Were out of here, Pauly
said. The least they are saying is: Well treat
Medicare patients like we treat Medicaid
patients, which is mostly not.
Boomers retiring to rural areas wont find doctors
Medicare pays rural doctors less per procedure than urban physicians because their operating
costs are supposedly less.That makes rural doctors less likely to accept Medicare patients.

HEALTH
Still, there is some good news, depending on
where you live.
Pauly said the Affordable Care Act puts a
lot of emphasis on wellness programs and pri-
mary care. Nurses, especially nurse practition-
ers, are intended to play a major role there.
In Oregon, Washington and 14 other states,
nurses and nurse practioners can operate inde-
pendently of doctors, writing prescriptions,
ordering tests, and even running clinics, Pauly
said.
Nationwide, the 22.5 percent of primary care
doctors who practice in rural areas roughly
matches the 24 percent of Medicare patients
living there, said Dr. Roland Goertz, chairman
of the American Academy of Family
Physicians board.
A survey of academy members nationwide
shows 83 percent take new Medicare patients.
But there is an overall shortage of primary care
physicians that still makes it hard for retirees to
nd a family doctor.
The real problem, he said, is that the health
care system has not supported a robust, ade-
quate primary care workforce for over 30
years.
According to the American Association of
Medical Colleges, rural areas need about
20,000 primary care doctors to make up for the
shortages, but only about 16,500 medical doc-
tors and 3,500 doctors of osteopathy graduate
yearly.
We are always trying to recruit doctors. We
are barely keeping even, said Lyle Jackson,
the medical director at the Mid-Rogue
Independent Physician Association, a coopera-
tive of doctors in Josephine County, where
Musselman lives.
Taking part in the Medicare Advantage pro-
gram, which pays a higher rate to doctors than
standard Medicare, helps, but is still not
enough, said Jackson, a former
family physician.
A 2009 survey of doctors in
the Oregon Medical Association
showed concern over Medicare
reimbursement rates topping the list of 23
issues, with 79 percent rating it as very impor-
tant, said Joy Conklin, an ofcial at the associ-
ation.
The survey showed 19.1 percent of Oregon
doctors had closed their practices to Medicare,
and 28.1 percent had restricted the numbers of
Medicare patients.
That really becomes evident in Josephine
County, which attracted retirees after the tim-
ber industry collapsed.
Low taxes, cheap housing, wineries, a sym-
phony and low trafc put it in top 10 lists for
retirement communities. The 2010 census puts
the number of people older than 65 at 23 per-
cent, compared to 14 percent for the state.
But the website County Health Rankings &
Roadmaps, which gathers a wide range of
health care data nationwide, shows 933 patients
for every primary care physician in the county,
nearly 50 percent higher than the national 631-
to-one rate.
At the Grants Pass Clinic, Dr. Bruce Stowell
said they are no longer taking new Medicare
patients. Medicare pays about 45 percent of
what commercial insurance pays.
As it is, their proportion of Medicare patients
is double that of a similar Portland practice.
We used to get a steady stream of high-qual-
ity (resumes) from U.S.-trained and U.S.-born
physicians, he said. Over the last year, that
stream has declined into a trickle. Very few
(doctors) are choosing to go into primary care.
Schools are turning out more nurse practi-
tioners and physician assistants.
How well they ll the doctor gap will depend
largely on how much independence states give
them to practice, said Tay Kopanos, director of
health care policy for state affairs at the
American Academy of Nurse Practitioners.
Meanwhile, overall demand for primary care
will be increasing as more people can afford it
under the Affordable Care Act, said Joanne
Spetz, a health care policy professor at the
University of California, San Francisco.
Dr. Atul Grover, chief of public policy for the
American Association of Medical Colleges,
said the nation is facing a tough time recruiting
for primary care as well as other specialties that
treat Medicare patients, such as oncologists.
When he decided to become a primary care
doctor in the 1990s, it was because of a wide-
spread belief that health maintenance organiza-
tions were going to be hiring all the doctors.

HEALTH 19

CHICAGO Dont call todays
young doctors slackers.
True, they may shun a 24/7 on-call
solo practice and try to have a life
outside of work.
Yet they say theyre just as com-
mitted to medicine as kindly Marcus
Welby from 1970s TV, or even
grumpy Dr. House.
The practice of medicine is in the
midst of an evolution, and millennial
and Gen X doctors seem to be per-
fectly suited for it and in some ways
may be driving it. The federal health
care law is speeding some of these
changes, too.
Its a fortunate accident, said
economist and health policy expert
Robert Reischauer. The two will
reinforce each other.
These doctors embrace technology
and teamwork. They like electronic
medical records and smartphone
apps. And they like sharing the load
with other doctors on the team.
Emal Nasiri and Leana Wen are
part of the new breed.
Nasiri, 32, is a medical resident at
the University of Oklahoma in Tulsa.
He likes the idea of working in a
large health plan group where doc-
tors, specialists and other medical
staff work as teams, with easy access
to patients electronic medical
records. That kind of setup is more
likely to be wired than smaller
practices, and Nasiri cant imagine
working without his iPad.
The older guys carry around little
pharmaceutical books when going
room-to-room visiting hospitalized
patients, Nasiri said. He thinks thats
less efficient than being able to
quickly view patients electronic
charts and online drug information.
Wen, 29, will soon nish a resi-
dency in emergency medicine at
Harvard-affiliated Brigham and
Womens Hospital and
Massachusetts General Hospital.
Shes also a newlywed whose hus-
band is an information technology
project manager.
I want to have a balanced life that
includes having time for my family,
she said.
She chose emergency medicine
because the hours are more exible
than those of primary care doctors.
That will allow her to work part-time
in the ER and follow her other pas-
sions teaching, research, writing
and blogging about empowering
patients to get the best medical care.
Wen finds her smartphone as
handy as her stethoscope. Its apps
help her quickly gure out proper
medicine doses for critically ill
patients, or translate medical instruc-
tions for Spanish-speakers. That
means she doesnt have to wait for a
hospital translator to arrive, and she
thinks it makes patient care safer.
She says those who call doctors
with outside interests less committed
have a fairly limited world view.
We need doctors who `just prac-
tice medicine, but we also need these
other doctors who can improve med-
ical care on the larger scale. It is also
better to have those taking care of
you to take care of themselves and
their families, so I would argue that it
is a healthier ... and in some ways,
more balanced workforce that is
emerging, Wen said.
Dr. Darrell Kirch, president of the
Association of American Medical
Colleges, thinks these new doctors
have a broader view of medicine and
life than their predecessors, and calls
that a positive trend. I see no evi-
dence that indicates that their ethical
commitment is any weaker, that they
care any less for patients, he said.
When Kirch graduated from med-
ical school 35 years ago, he envi-
sioned starting a small solo practice,
like many of his peers. A mentor
steered him into research and work at
an academic medical center. But that
was not the norm.
A typical model was of a male
physician who plunged into medi-
cine and was supported in doing that
by a totally supportive spouse or
partner who often gave up any work
aspirations of their own, he said.
Newer doctors often have working
partners and both share responsibili-
ty for raising children or caring for
elderly parents, he noted.
Consider some statistics:
When Kirch graduated in 1977,
only about 20 percent of medical
school graduates were women; now
nearly half are.
1 in 5 male doctors and 44 per-
cent of female doctors employed by
medical groups worked part-time
last year, according to an American
Medical Group Association survey.
That compares with just 7 percent
and 29 percent respectively in 2005.
New doctors in their rst year of
medical residency training can no
longer work 24-hour shifts. Since
last year, theyve been limited to 16-
hour shifts. Stricter limits began in
2003, cutting residents maximum
weekly hours to 80, to improve gru-
eling schedules and reduce medical
mistakes.
A 2011 survey of nal-year med-
ical residents conducted by national
physician recruitment rm Merritt
Hawkins found that only 1 percent
wanted to work as solo practitioners,
running their own small medical
ofces.
Rising numbers of medical
school graduates are seeking training
programs in high-paying specialties
offering exible hours; emergency
medicine and anesthesiology saw
some of the biggest increases in this
years medical resident match pro-
gram.
Those two specialties are popular
among young doctors, who on aver-
age face more than $150,000 in med-
ical school debt. The others are radi-
ology, ophthalmology and dermatol-
ogy, all offering better pay and work
hours than primary-care medicine.
Also rising in popularity are hospi-
talists, a specialty that didnt even
exist a generation ago. For decades,
internists and other primary-care
doctors have typically provided part-
time care for their patients when they
were hospitalized. Increasingly, hos-
pitalists have taken over those duties
full time. They often work several
12-hour shifts in a row, with an equal
number of days off the so-called
seven on-seven off model.
Forget Marcus Welby: Todays docs want a real life
Leana Wen, 29, will soon nish a residency in emergency medicine at
Harvard-afliated Brigham and Womens Hospital and Massachusetts
General Hospital.Shes also a newlywed whose husband is an information
technology project manager.

can knuckle down on details of the
actual proposal.
Currently, the transit village plan
would convert a 10.53-acre strip of
land within the existing Caltrain sta-
tion and running parallel to the rail-
road corridor. Legacys proposal envi-
sions eight four-story buildings with
280 housing units among a mix of
407,298 square feet of residential,
23,797 square feet of office space and
14,326 square feet of retail space.
The project, which first came for-
ward in 1998, would include 667 park-
ing spaces and a new SamTrans Transit
Center on 4.29 acres. SamTrans, the
lands current owner, would grant the
Foster City-based developer a long-
term lease for a little more than half
the site followed by ownership.
The plan is not without its detrac-
tors. The Greater East San Carlos
group worries about the impact on its
neighborhood through shadows and
parking not to mention when and if
high-speed rail begins although a
new alternative was recently added to
lower heights on most buildings north
of Holly Street, break up the massing
between two building and create tow-
ers immediately north and south of
Holly Street to accent the gateway.
Although the final product is still a
long way off, the fiscal impact analysis
generated for Legacy Partners and dis-
cussed by the citys Economic
Development Advisory Commission at
its last meeting provides a peek into
what aside from the physical proj-
ect itself the development would
provide to the city financially. There
may also be other project-related
financial terms drawn up later but
nothing has yet to be put forward.
The report also notes that the city
would spend an estimated $162,925
annually from the general fund on
police, parks, public works, fire and
other government services. More than
half the cost nearly 60 percent is
for police services.
Aside from the one-time developer
fees, the report concludes the project
would be an ongoing financial benefit
for the city of San Carlos both in the
domino effect to other businesses and
in approximately $150,000 of annual
revenue after expenses.
However, the report cautions, the 20-
year forecast of the projects fiscal
impacts assumes financial factors will
remain constant, particularly as the
timeline doesnt even start until 2015-
16. The two-decade span is an exten-
sive amount of time to expect stabili-
ty, the report states, and includes fac-
tors outside local control like regional
or national economy, natural disasters
or legal and policy decisions.

FEES
Members of the authority were not required to abide by the
same conict of interest requirements as members of other
government bodies, such as the Public Utilities Commission
and Coastal Commission, who must recuse themselves from
participating in, discussing or voting on matters in which they
have a nancial interest, according to Hills ofce.
The bill was also amended after it was reported that a trans-
portation expert hired by the authority to do an independent
review of ridership forecasts had worked for the company that
had prepared the estimate and has a close relationship with one
of the rms top executives.
As we go forward with one of the biggest public works
projects in the nation, we need to ensure there is maximum
transparency and prevent conicts of interest Hill wrote in a
statement.
If signed by the governor, AB 41 will require rail authority
board members to abide by the advanced disclosure require-
ments of the California Political Reform Act. The bill also
requires that contractors and subcontractors selected by the
rail authority as peer reviewers le statements of economic
interests with the Fair Political Practices Commission.
The rail authority has not taken a position on Hills legisla-
tion and amendment.
The authority does support disclosure, Lisa Marie Burcar,
the rail authoritys press secretary previously told the Daily
Journal.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Elizabeth Ann Murphy
Case Number 122627
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: Elizabeth Ann Murphy,
aka Betty Ann Murphy. A Petition for
Probate has been filed by Robert W. Bra-
dy in the Superior Court of California,
County of San Mateo. The Petition for
Probate requests that Robert W. Brady
be appointed as personal representative
to administer the estate of the decedent.
The petition requests the decedents will
and codicils, if any, be admitted to pro-
bate. The will and any codicils are avail-
able for examination in the file kept by
the court.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ster the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This
athourity will allow the personal repre-
sentative to take many actions without
obtaining court approval. Before taking
certain very important actions, however,
the personal representative will be re-
quired to give notice to interested per-
sons unless they have waived notice or
consented to the proposed action.) The
independent administration authority will
be granted unless an interested person
files an objection to the petition and
shows good cause why the court should
not grant the authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: September 24,
2012 at 9:00 a.m., Dept. 28, Superior
Court of California, County of San Mateo,
400 County Center, 1st Floor, Redwood
City, CA 94063. If you object to the
granting of the petition, you should ap-
pear at the hearing and state your objec-
tions or file written objections with the
court before the hearing. Your appear-
ance may be in person or by your attor-
ney. If you are a creditor or a contingent
creditor of the decedent, you must file
your claim with the court and mail a copy
to the personal representative appointed
by the court within four months from the
date of first issuance of letters as provid-
ed in Probate Code section 9100. The
time for filing claims will not expire before
four months from the hearing date no-
ticed above. You may examine the file
kept by the court. If you are a person in-
terested in the estate, you may file with
the court a Request for Special Notice
(form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory
and appraisal of estate assets or of any
petition or account as provided in Pro-
bate Code section 1250. A Request for
Special Notice form is available from the
court clerk.

TENTIAL BIDDERS If you are consider-
ing bidding on this property lien, you
should understand that there are risks in-
volved in bidding at a trustee auction.
You will be bidding on a lien, not on a
property itself. Placing the highest bid at
a trustee auction does not automatically
entitle you to free and clear ownership of
the property. You should also be aware
that the lien being auctioned off may be a
junior lien. If you are the highest bidder
at the auction, you are or may be respon-
sible for paying off all liens senior to the
lien being auctioned off, before you can
receive clear title to the property. You
are encouraged to investigate the exis-
tence, priority, and size of outstanding
liens that may exist on this property by
contacting the county recorder's office or
a title insurance company, either of
which may charge you a fee for this infor-
mation. If you consult either of these re-
sources, you should be aware that the
lender may hold more than one mort-
gage or deed of trust on the property.
NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER The
sale date shown on this notice of sale
may be postponed one or more times by
the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a
court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the
California Civil Code. The law requires
that information about trustee sale post-
ponements be made available to you and
to the public, as a courtesy to those not
present at the sale. If you wish to learn
whether your sale date has been post-
poned, and, if applica-ble, the resched-
uled time and date for the sale of this
property, you may call 1-800-281-8219

mation about postponements that are
very short in duration or that occur close
in time to the scheduled sale may not im-
mediately be reflected in the telephone
information or on the Internet Web site.
The best way to verify postponement in-
formation is to attend the scheduled sale.
