State and federal agencies are ini-
tiating an effort to preserve the
Pescadero lagoon; habitat to threat-
ened and endangered marine
species. Winding under Highway 1
south of Half Moon Bay, the lagoon
will be manually breached in an
attempt to combat dwindling sh
populations.
The lagoon is a complex ecosys-
tem amidst varying water quality
that suffers from oxygen depletion
and release of toxic hydrogen sul-
de during periods of disconnect
from the ocean due to the forming
of a sandbar, said Patrick Rutten, a
representative of the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administrations Restoration
Center.
Naturally formed in the fall, the
sandbar and consequential stagna-
tion of the lagoon has been deter-
mined to be affecting the procre-
ation and resilience of native sh for
the past 17 years.
California is one of the most bio-
diverse states with an estimated
6,400 species, said Chuck Bonham,
director of the California
Department of Fish and Game.
Habitat to various coastal sh, tur-
tles, frogs, snakes, birds and, of spe-
cic concern, the steelhead trout,
the lagoon has experienced an
inux of sh kills. Since the 1980s,
the population of steelhead has
diminished from 600,000 to a scant
200,000, Bonham said. Steelheads
are a popular catch and shing for

Waste agency
adopts budget
Recycling coordinator
position eliminated
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The South Bayside Waste
Management Authority board
approved a $38.2 million budget
yesterday that
calls for the
elimination of
the agencys
recycling coordi-
nator, who
alleged she was
being retaliated
against for
repeatedly com-
plaining about
contracts she deemed suspicious.
Cathy Hidalgos claim that her job
was on the chopping block because
she questioned Executive Director
Kevin McCarthys awarding of a
contract to a friend led to a whistle-
blower investigation that ultimately
cleared McCarthy of any wrongdo-
ing.
Hidalgo attended yesterdays
meeting but sat in silence when the
opportunity came to comment on the
scal year 2012-13 budget that axed
her job.
The budget passed unanimously
on a 11-0 vote.
With approval of the budget, it
gives McCarthy the authority to
eliminate Hidalgos $86,724-a-year
recycling coordinator position.
Budget adoption was delayed
nearly 10 weeks as an outside con-
sultant investigated Hidalgos
claims.
The board was set to adopt its
budget June 28 but since then
McCarthy told the board that com-
modity revenue dropped drastically
in the past two months, leading to a
reduction in net income from about
$3.2 million to just more than $1
million.
The drop in revenue is due to a
drop in demand for recycled paper,
McCarthy told the board yesterday.
The budget also reects nearly

Sri Lankan diamond saga:
Swallowed gem was fake
COLOMBO, Sri Lanka Sri Lankas
diamond-swallowing saga took an unex-

revealed the stone swallowed by a visi-

ued at $13,000.
Police arrested Chou Wan, 32, after a
gem owner complained a man had swal-
lowed his 1.5 carat diamond at a jewelry
show in Colombo last week. An X-ray

and Chou was given a laxative so the

the authority informed police the dia-
mond Chou swallowed was fake and had
no nancial value. He said investigators
suspect another Chinese man seen with
Chou may have the real diamond worth
1.8 million Sri Lankan rupees ($13,636).

A San Bruno man accused of torturing his
live-in girlfriend with punches, pliers and
threats to bury her in the yard because she had
an affair with a coworker will receive seven
years in prison after pleading no contest to
two counts of felony domestic violence.
Richard David Northey, 30, also admitted
committing serious felonies and inflicting
great bodily injury on the woman during the
repeated attacks April 5. By taking a negotiat-
ed plea, Northey avoids trial on other charges,
including torture which
could have imprisoned
him for life.
San Bruno police arrest-
ed Northey after his girl-
friend of six years told
them while hospitalized
that for 11 hours he tor-
tured and beat her repeat-
edly because she cheated.
The woman said he also
threatened several times to
kill her and bury her in two trash bags in the
yard. He also allegedly threatened to kill her
family if she cheated again and painfully
squeezed one of her ngers with a pair of pli-
ers. He threatened to pull off her ngernails,
swung her by her hair and slammed her head
into a wall and held a cigarette to her eyes
while threatening to burn them, according to
prosecutors.
The following afternoon, the woman told
Northey she had to go to work as an excuse to
ee. Northey will be formally sentenced Oct.
25 and remains in custody in lieu of $100,000
bail.

Two transit repairmen accused of stealing
more than $40,000 from Caltrain ticket
machines will stand trial on more than a dozen
charges of embezzlement and grand theft after
a judge found sufcient evidence yesterday.
Orvilla Taylor, 60, and Herbert Todd, 53,
face between three and 15 years depending
upon whether they can be sentenced for each
of 14 counts individually or collectively. Both
men have pleaded not guilty to all charges but
were held to answer on all counts except one
of false impersonation after a three-day pre-
liminary hearing that
wrapped up yesterday.
Prosecutors say the
men, both employees of
the San Mateo County
Transit District for more
than 25 years, stole money
on 12 separate dates in
2010 from broken ticket
machines they brought in
to repair. They reportedly
disassembled the equip-
ment, took the money and returned the
machines to service. Caltrain discovered
money was missing during
an internal audit and the
defendants were reported-
ly caught acting suspi-
cious and irregular on

Taylor and Todd are on

leave and free from cus-
tody on $150,000 bail each. They return to

and 2-year-old son from
their grandmother while
the childrens mother was

When it came to one of the most important
days of her life, Lynda Frigard felt she could
not go through with it without Anne Cashman
by her side.
I couldnt get married without her, said
Frigard, 41.
Frigard and Cashmans friendship began
long before wedding plans were being thought
up when both were members of the Friends
for Youth family, an organization that matches
troubled youth with positive adult role models
based out of Redwood City.
The Friends for Youth organization has
served San Mateo County and North Santa
Clara County for more than 33 years.
They are actually referred to us, or identi-
ed to us, by schools, teachers, principals,
school counselors, by juvenile probation of-
cers, by childrens protective service ofcers.
Many have abuse in their background, said
FFY Executive Director Becky Cooper of the
youth her organization targets, so theyre
identied to us as youth who really are strug-
gling either at home, at school, in their neigh-
borhoods or all of the above and the profes-
sional is saying theyre really lacking a posi-
tive adult role model in their life and could
benet from that.
As a 9 year-old, Frigard met a 22-year-old
Cashman, now 54, when Friends for Youth
was known as Partners, Inc. Frigards mother
had left and her father felt it was important for
her to have a positive female adult role model
in her life, so he contacted Partners, Inc.
Cashman was fresh out of college and looking
for volunteer work when she met Frigard.
Their connection seemed perfect from the
beginning.
Each friendship looks
very different, Cooper
said. We match as closely
as we can. We dont just
take the top people off the
list but we match as closely
as we can with common
interests, common styles
and coping skills and really
look for compatibility
because we want this to be
a long-term and, in the case
of someone like Anne and
Lynda, a lifelong relation-
ship.
She was very sweet and
loyal, Frigard said of
Cashman. I trusted her. I
wouldnt let her leave my
side.
FFY has more than 200
active friendships between
Senior Friends and Junior Friends. Both parts
of the friendship are considered volunteer
work since the Junior Friend cannot be part of
the organization as a condition of probation.
We have at least three group activities
every month, Cooper said, and those are
anywhere from recreational, going to see the
Giants, going skating; to cultural, going to
museums, going to festivals to celebrate cul-
tural heritage; to community service where we
might go do a beach cleanup together or we
might go visit a nursing home. We try to make
sure were doing a spattering of those. Many
of our kids are struggling with school and we
want our kids to develop a curiosity for learn-
ing outside of a school setting and interest and
not push them too far in that direction.

The teenage girl who used a fellow stu-
dents email to send Burlingame High School
administrators a false bomb threat that put the
campus on lockdown earlier this year was
sentenced yesterday to 15 days in jail and 32
hours of counseling.
Christine Nicole Azzolino, 19, must also
spend two years on supervised probation fol-
lowed by a year of court probation. She
receives a day of credit against the term and is
prohibited from possessing weapons.
Restitution, if any, will be determined at a
Nov. 16 hearing.
Azzolino pleaded no contest to a misde-
meanor count of making a false explosives
report in return for 30 hours community serv-
ice along with the jail time and 32 hours
counseling. Chief Deputy District Attorney
Karen Guidotti called the sentence appropri-
ate.
Defense attorney Jeff Jackson called the
sentence a very good outcome for his
client, saying both he and Azzolino appreci-
ate her being given the chance to give back to
the community through public service work
rather than serving a lengthy jail sentence. He
said she is also on a positive path since her
arrest.
She ultimately graduat-
ed from high school, is
now employed and has
been doing very well,
Jackson said.
Azzolino sent the email
at approximately 2 p.m.
Feb. 10 and school of-
cials immediately locked
down the campus. They
tracked the message back
to a male student from whose account it orig-
inated and police swept the campus and the
boys possessions with four bomb-snifng
dogs.
No bombs were found and no one was
injured.
The lockdown was lifted shortly after 2:30
p.m. Police ultimately figured out that
Azzolino actually sent the message from the
boys account and she was arrested the fol-
lowing Monday, according to prosecutors
who say she said there was no intent to actu-
ally carry out the threat.
Jackson previously said his client was only
a high schooler playing a prank without being
fully aware of the consequences.
Azzolino has been free from custody on
$50,000 cash bail.

LOS ANGELES Gov. Jerry Brown on
Wednesday signed into law sweeping pen-
sion changes that will save California tax-
payers billions of dollars in the future and
aims to reform a system that is woefully
underfunded.
Brown praised lawmakers on both sides of
the aisle for reaching a deal that will
increase the retirement age for new employ-
ees depending on their job, cap the annual
payout at $132,120, eliminate numerous
abuses of the system and require workers
who are not contributing half of their retire-
ment costs to pay more.
Whooping cough
vaccine loses punch too fast
NEW YORK As the U.S. wrestles with
its biggest whooping cough outbreak in
decades, researchers appear to have zeroed in
on the main cause: The safer vaccine that was
introduced in the 1990s loses effectiveness
much faster than previously thought.
A study published in Wednesdays New
England Journal of Medicine found that the
protective effect weakens dramatically soon
after a youngster gets the last of the ve rec-
ommended shots around age 6.
The protection rate falls from about 95 per-
cent to 71 percent within ve years, said
researchers at the Kaiser Permanente Vaccine
Research Center in Oakland.
The U.S. has had more than 26,000 whoop-
ing cough cases so far this year, including
more than 10,000 in children ages 7 to 10.
The substantial majority of the cases are
explained by this waning immunity, said Dr.
William Schaffner, an infectious-disease spe-
cialist at Vanderbilt University.
CDC reports incidents
of tainted ricotta cheese
WASHINGTON Federal health ofcials
say ricotta cheese tainted with listeria bacteria
is linked to 14 illnesses including at least one

The imported Italian ricotta salata cheese
distributed by Forever Cheese, Inc., of New
York is linked to illnesses in 11 states and the
District of Columbia, according to the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Forever Cheese issued a recall of one lot
800 wheels of ricotta salata, or roughly 4,800
pounds on Monday.
The cheese was distributed to retail stores

The public exchanges between strik-
ing Chicago teachers and the school dis-
trict grew more personal Wednesday as
negotiators returned to the bargaining
table on the walkouts third day.
A top district negotiator, Barbara
Byrd-Bennett, criticized teachers union
President Karen Lewis for using the
word silly when describing the negoti-
ations to a crowd of adoring teachers a
day earlier.
It is not silly that we spent over 10
hours yesterday attempting to bridge the
gap, Byrd-Bennett said just before the
talks resumed. We take these negotia-
tions incredibly serious.
The strike has canceled classes for
more than 350,000 students.
Union officials continued to play
down the chances of a quick resolu-
tion to the dispute, which centers on
the districts proposed new teacher
evaluation process and a policy on
rehiring teachers that have been laid
off. The district said it had presented
the union with a new comprehensive
proposal Tuesday and was demanding
either a response in writing or a com-
prehensive counter-proposal.
Chicago teachers strike grinds into third day

WASHINGTON The nations
poverty rate remained stuck at a record
level last year, while household income
dropped and the number of people who
dont have health insurance declined.
A Census Bureau report released
Wednesday provided a mixed picture of
the economic well-being of U.S. house-
holds for 2011 as the nation enters the
nal phase of a presidential election
campaign in which the economy is the
No. 1 issue.
The overall poverty rate stood at 15
percent, statistically unchanged from the
15.1 percent rate in the previous year.
Experts had expected a rise in the pover-
ty rate for the fourth straight year, but
unemployment benets and modest job
gains helped stave that off, the bureau
reported. For last year, the ofcial pover-
ty line was an annual income of $23,021
for a family of four.
While unemployment eased slightly
from 2010 to 2011, the gap between rich
and poor increased. The median, or mid-
point, household income was $50,054,
1.5 percent lower than 2010 and a sec-
ond straight annual decline.
In a blog post, the White House said
the latest gures show that government
policies can help the poor, middle class
and uninsured, while more work remains
to be done.
While we have made progress dig-
ging our way out of the worst economic
crisis since the Great Depression, too
many families are still struggling and
Congress must act on the policies
President Obama has put forward to
strengthen the middle class and those
trying to get into it, the White House
post said.
At a fundraising event in Jacksonville,
Fla., Obamas GOP rival for the White
House, Mitt Romney, said the president
is the candidate thats pushed the mid-
dle class into poverty. Were the party of
those who want a brighter, prosperous
future for themselves and for their kids.
Were not the party of the rich. Were the
party of the people who want to get
rich.
U.S. poverty rate unchanged
While we have made progress digging our way out

Officials probing possibility of planned attack
By Matthew Lee
WASHINGTON The Obama
administration, roiled by the rst killing
of a U.S. ambassador in more than 30
years, is investigating whether the assault
on the U.S. Consulate in Libya was a
planned terrorist strike to mark the
anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks
and not a spontaneous mob enraged over
an anti-Islam YouTube video.
President Barack Obama declared in a
White House appearance that the U.S.
would work with the Libyan govern-
ment to bring to justice those who killed
Ambassador Chris Stevens and three
other Americans. The attack on the
Benghazi consulate was a planned,
coordinated, well-executed military style
event, House Intelligence Committee
Chairman Mike Rogers said.
In a show of force, the Pentagon
moved two warships to the Libyan coast.
Ofcials said one destroyer, the USS
Laboon, moved to a position off the coast
Wednesday, and the destroyer USS
McFaul was en route and should be sta-
tioned off the coast within days, increas-
ing the number of Navy destroyers in the
Mediterranean from four to ve.
Ofcials said the ships, which carry
Tomahawk cruise missiles, do not have a
specic mission. But they give com-
manders exibility to respond to any
mission ordered by the president.
Pentagon spokesman George Little
said, Without commenting on specic
ship movements, the United States mili-
tary regularly takes precautionary steps
when potential contingencies might arise
in a given situation. Thats not only logi-
cal in certain circumstances, its the pru-
dent thing to do.
At the same time, some 50 U.S.
Marines headed to Libya to reinforce
security at U.S. diplomatic facilities, ini-
tially at the American embassy in Tripoli,
not Benghazi.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. Republican challenger Mitt
Romney sought to portray President Barack Obama as weak
on foreign policy Wednesday after violent attacks on U.S.
diplomatic missions in the Middle East. Obama steered clear
of the political ght, declaring as commander in chief that
justice will be done in response to the deaths of four
Americans in Libya.
Romney used the attacks as an opening to assail Obama
during an appearance in swing state Florida, accusing the
administration of sending mixed signals to the world and
failing to lead in the face of violence.
Obama avoided engaging his campaign rival during an
appearance in the White House Rose Garden with Secretary
of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. Addressing the nation and
the world, he said there was absolutely no justication for
this kind of senseless violence none. He was responding
to the Tuesday night attack that killed U.S. ambassador to
Libya Chris Stevens and three American members of his staff.
Romney had jumped to criticize Obama as the attacks were
being waged on U.S. diplomatic missions in Egypt and Libya.
Angry mobs attacked the facilities to protest an obscure lm
by a California lmmaker that ridiculed Islams Prophet
Muhammad.
The U.S. Embassy in Cairo initially issued a statement that
criticized the lm. Romney, trailing Obama in public opinion
polls on their leadership on foreign policy, quickly pounced
with a statement before news of the diplomats deaths, saying
the administrations response seemed to sympathize with
those who waged the attacks.

BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE
A Bay Area native who was serving as
the U.S. ambassador to Libya was killed
along with three other Americans in an
attack by militants at the U.S. consulate
in Benghazi, Libya, on Tuesday night.
U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens was
fatally wounded while American and
Libyan security personnel fought the
attackers together, Secretary of State
Hilary Clinton said in a briefing in
Washington, D.C., Wednesday morning.
Heavily armed militants assaulted the
compound and set re to our buildings,
Clinton said.
Clinton said a small and savage
group committed
the attack, but the
motive is still
unclear.
Stevens, 52, had
been serving as the
U.S. ambassador to
Libya since May,
according to the
State Department.
Stevens had served
twice previously in Libya, including as a
special representative to the Libyan
Transitional National Council from
March to November 2011, during the
countrys revolution.
Stevens spent most of his career serv-
ing in the Middle East and northern
Africa, including stints in Jerusalem,
Israel, Damascus, Syria, Cairo, Egypt
and Morocco.
President Barack Obama praised
Stevens Wednesday morning.
Chris was a courageous and exempla-
ry representative of the United States,
Obama said in a statement. His legacy
will endure wherever human beings
reach for liberty and justice.
Stevens was a 1978 graduate of
Piedmont High School. He obtained a
bachelors of arts degree in history from
the University of California at Berkeley
in 1982.
He then went on to receive his doctor-
ate from the University of Californias
Hastings College of the Law in 1989.

KARACHI, Pakistan Fires at two clothing
factories in Pakistan left 283 people dead
many trapped behind locked doors and barred
windows tragedies that highlight workplace
perils in a country where many buildings lack
basic safety equipment and owners often bribe
ofcials to ignore the violations.
The blazes broke out Tuesday night at a gar-
ment factory in the southern port city of
Karachi and a shoe manufacturer in the eastern
city of Lahore. At least 258 people died in the
re in Karachi, where rescue workers were still
searching Wednesday for bodies in the charred
building. Another 25 perished in Lahore.
Panicked workers in Karachi had only one
way out since the factorys owner had locked
all the other exit doors in response to a recent
theft, ofcials said. Many victims suffocated in
the smoke-lled basement.
The owner of the factory should also be
burned to death the way our dear ones have
died in a miserable condition, said Nizam-ud-
Din, whose nephew was killed in the re, one
of the deadliest industrial accidents in Pakistani
history.
Police were searching for the factorys man-
agers and placed the owner on a list of people
who are not allowed to leave the country, said
Roshan Ali Sheikh, a top government ofcial in
Karachi.
It is a criminal act to lock the emergency
exit doors, and we are trying to know who did
it, and why, Sheikh said.
The re started when a boiler exploded and
the ames ignited chemicals that were stored in
the factory, which manufactured jeans and
other clothes for export.

Once a young man or woman is matched
for awhile they kind of take a leadership role

they can really break cycles where older sib-

kind of break that cycle.
Frigard and Cashman spent more than the
required amount of time together. Fullling
the goal of the organization, the women now
maintain a friendship that extends to their
lives as grown women with careers, husbands
and children.
Frigard and Cashman are just one of hun-
dreds of friendships that FFY has paired over
the past 33 years and theyll all come together
in a reunion on Sept. 15 at Red Morton Park in
Redwood City.
Were going to really try to catch up with
each person, Cooper said. We will try to
update people these days with what were
doing with Friends for Youth. So well try to
get people to know each other a little bit, learn
their stories; denitely capture their contact
information so we can follow up. And hope-
fully that will be the beginning of regular
events like this.
The starting point really is to try to recon-
nect everybody, she added. From there I
think denitely, once we see who shows up,
we want to have follow up and I think we
would certainly want to ask whether they
know anyone who would want to be mentors
to Friends for Youth or could we come to their
workplace or service club and give a little
presentation. So I think denitely its a good
resource, a great group to ask for some help,
especially in recruiting new mentors, which
we always need.
The reunion starts at noon and is open to
alumni and their families with a suggested
donation of $10.
I always had a tendency to work with trou-
bled youth, Cashman said, looking back at
her time with FFY. I think anytime you work
one-on-one you get as much out as you put
in.

The one-story villa that serves as the con-
sulate was a burned-out wreck after the
crowd armed with machine guns and rocket-
propelled grenades rampaged through it.
Slogans of God is great and Muhammad
is Gods Prophet were scrawled across its
scorched walls. Libyan civilians strolled
freely in charred rooms with furniture and

President Barack Obama vowed in a Rose
Garden address that the U.S. would work
with the Libyan government to bring to jus-
tice those who killed Ambassador Chris
Stevens, information manager Sean Smith
and two other Americans who were not iden-
tified. Three other Americans were wound-
ed.
Stevens was the first U.S. ambassador
killed in the line of duty in 30 years.
We reject all efforts to denigrate the reli-
gious beliefs of others, but there is absolute-
ly no justification for this type of senseless
violence. None, said Obama, who also
ordered increased security at U.S. diplomat-
ic posts abroad.
Republican Mitt Romney accused the
Obama administration of showing weakness
in the consulate killings, but the president
retorted that his rival seems to have a ten-
dency to shoot first and aim later. Some in
the GOP called Romneys remarks hasty.
The mob attack on Tuesday the 11th
anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist
strike in the U.S. was initially presumed
to have been a spontaneous act triggered by
outrage over a movie called Innocence of
Muslims that mocked Islams Prophet
Muhammad that was produced in the U.S.
and excerpted on YouTube. The amateurish
video also drew protests in Cairo, where
angry ultraconservatives climbed the U.S.
Embassys walls, tore down an American
flag and replaced it with an Islamic banner.
But a U.S. counterterrorism official said
the Benghazi violence was too coordinated
or professional to be spontaneous. The offi-
cial spoke on condition of anonymity
because he was not authorized to discuss the
incident publicly.
The FBI was sending evidence teams to
Libya, a law enforcement official said.
Libyas new leadership scrambling to
preserve ties with Washington after U.S.
help to overthrow former dictator Moammar
Gadhafi vowed to find those behind the
attack. Interim President Mohammed el-
Megarif apologized to the United States for
what he called the cowardly assault, which
also killed several Libyan security guards at
the consulate in the eastern city.
Parliament speaker Omar al-Houmidan
suggested the attack might have been
planned, saying the mob may have had for-
eign loyalties an apparent reference to
international terrorists. We are not sure.
Everything is possible, he said.
A Libyan jihadist group, the Omar Abdel-
Rahman Brigades, claimed responsibility for
a bomb that went off outside the Benghazi
consulate in June, causing no injuries. The
group, which also carried out several attacks
on the International Red Cross in Libya, said
at the time that the bomb was revenge for the
killing of al-Qaidas No. 2, Abu Yahya al-
Libi, in a U.S. drone strike in Pakistan.
About 50 U.S. Marines were sent to Libya
to guard U.S. diplomatic facilities. The
Marines are members of an elite group
known as a Fleet Antiterrorism Security
Team, or FAST, whose role is to respond on
short notice to terrorism threats and to rein-
force security at embassies.

Letters to the editor
By Linda Koelling
A
s you may remember, Gov. Jerry
Brown and the state Legislature
voted to eliminate redevelopment
agencies in an effort, in my opinion, to cir-
cumvent Proposition 22, overwhelmingly
passed by the voters. Proposition 22 closes
the door on state raids of local funds and
stops the state from using cities like an end-
less ATM. Voters understood what was hap-
pening and twice sent a message to state law-
makers. Its funny to hear Gov. Brown try to
convince everyone that its their voices he
wants to hear in November with regards to
raising his tax measure.
Now hell listen to the voters? The people
of California voted to stop the state raids of
local government funds with passage of
Proposition 1A in 2004 and with Proposition
22 in 2010. Rather than xing the rich pen-
sions and irresponsible spending, the gover-
nor is dangling the fate of our childrens edu-
cation in front of us if the tax is not passed.
Does anyone else feel their arm being twist-
ed?
Cities with redevelopment agencies are
now experiencing a signicantly complex
process of redistributing funds back to the
state which in turn will be given to other
government agencies. I currently serve on the
oversight board for dismantling my citys
redevelopment agency and, in my opinion,
the process is a joke. Given each agency is
different, some will have an easier time of
sifting through their funds than others but
bottom line, time and money could have been
saved if the governor had just demanded a
donation from every city to fund their budget
gap. This process is a dog and pony show,
and makes a mockery of our governmental
processes. It is evident that the public is
unaware of what this
process entails, the impact
to their city or the addi-
tional costs involved.
There has been little news
coverage about these pub-
lic meetings.
We live in a period of
global danger; have a fed-
eral government balanc-
ing on a thread of eco-
nomic uncertainty and a state government
that cant gure out how to clean up its budg-
et mess without taking funds or taxing the
people. Wasting time and putting off reme-
dies to the budget crisis is a curse to our gov-
ernment system. Cities are being devastated
and it was everyones hope that passing
Proposition 22 would force Sacramento to
dissolve the polarization that has been
stalling their ability to get California back on
track; instead they dissolved the very mecha-
nism that helps citys redevelopment plans,
affordable housing and construction jobs.
To add insult to injury, the new law is con-
fusing, even to those who passed it. Recent
trailer bills or as lawmakers call it, cleanup
language, has been added to the new law.
They are literally making up the rules of the
game as they go along which convinces me
that eliminating redevelopment agencies was
an overreaction to the passage of proposition
22.
The Department of Finance has been given
new powers for this assignment which begs
the question, why have oversight boards?
Independent counsel is needed for both the
successor agencies and oversight boards and
some agencies may require independent
auditors. The process drags on until
Sacramento gures out how much of the
funds to take. At the end of the day, the state
budget problems are still there and cities face
uncertain futures. What have we gained?
Cities still struggle with their budgets and
look to unique ways for providing services.
So how have Sacramento lawmakers contin-
ued to do the same things over and over ...
and get away with it? Have both political
parties become twisted by special interests
and if so, who really is in control here? Are
we going to allow elected ofcials to contin-
ue to turn their backs on the voters? Has the
power of our vote been rendered meaningless
in California? Its time residents do some real
fact nding about the issues and question the
decisions we are being forced to accept from
Sacramento and their future impacts. Our
judgment about the job these elected ofcials
are doing has been clouded by their smoke
and mirror effects. Common sense thinking
seems to have eluded them.
We have become a nation of sheep and
allowed ourselves to be sucked into a black
hole of promises. We fail to see what goes on
under our radar. Special interest groups have
been allowed to set the course for us whether
we like it or not and have become the invisi-
ble government behind those we elected. Its
time for residents to see what is happening
and get involved. Attend the oversight board
meetings in your city and check the links

redevelopment.

BART, best for the Bay
Editor,
The extension of BART to San Jose was
recently started. With now three possible dif-
ferent means of transportation: BART,
Caltrain and the coming high-speed rail, its
about time to reduce excessive costs and
improve our current transportation and travel
systems.
BART travels from SFO, under the Bay to
cities like Richmond, Concord, Walnut
Creek, Oakland and Hayward, out to
Pleasanton, down to Fremont and soon to
San Jose. It would be more practical to com-
plete BART and have it go up and down the
Peninsula, not having to take multiple modes
of transportation to get to a location. In addi-
tion, it would be great to have BART go
somehow near the Dumbarton Bridge and
even across 237, and some day out to Tracy
and possibly Stockton, circulating the entire
Bay Area and East Bay.
High-speed rail could then be applied to
run from San Diego up through the Central
Valley, then up through California to Oregon
and possibly Washington state. Its too fast
and dangerous to go down the Peninsula.
Those wanting to travel north or south on
the high-speed rail could take BART from
San Francisco to a new high-speed rail or
BART station possibly located somewhere in
the Central Valley if BART would expand as
far as Tracy or Stockton.
Having high-speed rail in the East Bay or
Central Valley instead of on the Peninsula
will save many houses from being removed
and a four-track system will not be needed.
The millions of dollars that Caltrain wants to
spend on electrifying its trains could be used
instead to add BART tracks on the Peninsula
and possibly out farther in the East Bay.
As a past commuter and for those I know
who currently commute, having BART
extend would be a better idea and used more
than the high-speed rail.

U.S. Embassy stormed
Editor,
On Sept. 11, 2012 Islamists in Egypt
stormed the U.S. Embassy, ripped down our
ag and replaced it with a ag honoring Al-
Qaida. Meanwhile President Obama, who
has given $1.5 billion of our taxpayer money
to the Muslim Brotherhood, blames
American Christians for this Jihadi rampage.
I, for one, feel disgust and shame for the
actions of my president.

The trouble with dissolving redevelopment
Lost cause
T
his must be how senility starts, I
thought not with one big chunk of
memory gone but with small losses or
misplacements, just enough to make you think
youre going a little
crazy.
I hadnt felt
fuzzy-brained just
hours prior. I man-
aged to enjoy a few
cups of coffee,
locate the cereal,
feed the dogs at the
right time and
dress myself like a
grown-up with
matching shoes
and everything. My
packed lunch was
fetched from the
refrigerator admittedly, there are rushed
mornings this doesnt happen and I had
already checked that the laptop power cord
was shoved into the computer bag.
But as I let the car warm up and reached for
my wallet in preparation of a stop at the gas
station, the absence of the bank card hit me
like a swift slap. Id obviously just overlooked
it, I thought, double-checking behind my dri-
vers license and other assorted plastic. It must
have fallen out then but no, it was not in the
bottom of my purse or anywhere else. Pull up
the oor mats, push aside the collection of
sweaters and jackets accumulating in the back
seat to accommodate the Peninsula microcli-
mates, rie through the cluttered glove box
past long-outdated registration cards and oil
change receipts still nothing.
Back in the house. Look in other purses used
this week. How about the oor? Under the
desk? Back to the car. One more look in the
wallet. House. Car. House. Car. Where in the
heck could it be? And please dont let the
neighbors be watching.
Please dont be gone, I pleaded to no spiritu-
al being in particular, imagining the frustration
of sitting on hold with the banks customer
service, trying to remember my secret pass-
word to access the information (If I cant
remember where I put the card, how was I
expected to remember which pets name or car
model I used when setting up the account a
million years ago?) and trying to convince the
representative Im really me. Maybe instead I
can nd my checkbook to instead offer up the
account number wait! Online banking has
obliterated the need for checks. Where would I
have put the checkbook?
Parallel to endless news crawl of possible
locales rocketing through my mind was a run-
ning commentary on how the possibly pur-
loined card was being abused. Maybe theyre
buying gas before prices jump again. Probably
enjoying a Big Mac and super-sized fries
before being bombarded by calorie counts.
Most likely racking up Amazon deals before
the sales tax collection law takes effect this
weekend.
Then again, what would they care its not
their card anyway.
Ive misplaced the card several times before
but that is always in conjunction with an entire
wallet left on a counter or dropped from a bag.
On rare occasion an entire handbag may go
AWOL. Unlike those situations, everything
else was intact so having only one card go
missing was even more confusing to my obvi-
ously addled mind.
The last time I recalled using the card was a
few days before, also for gas, when I remem-
ber literally telling myself half-jokingly not to
accidentally throw it in the trash along with the
paper towel with which I wiped the window
squeegee.
Theres no way I would have actually or
is there? Could I really have not only done
something dumb but done it in spite of
myself? Unfortunately, I cant outright dismiss
the likelihood. Just as unfortunately, theres no
way to conrm the possibility short of a little
dumpster diving that, now days later, would
prove fruitless.
In the end, the bank received a call after all
and my card, like my sense of sound mind,
remains a lost cause.

NEW YORK The stock market
edged higher Wednesday after a court
cleared the way for Germany to partici-
pate in a European rescue fund.
Attention shifted to the Federal Reserve,
which began a big two-day meeting.
The highest court in Germany ruled
that the country could contribute to
Europes $640 billion rescue fund to
help indebted governments. The ruling
offered investors relief, but not much
more.
The issue was more speed bump than
hurdle, Dan Greenhaus, chief global
strategist at the brokerage BTIG, told
clients. More legislative and political
challenges lay ahead. Todays ruling
simply does nothing to change that larg-
er story.
The Dow Jones industrial average
climbed 9.99 points to close at
13,333.35, a four-year closing high. The
Standard & Poors 500 index added an
even 3 points to 1,436.56, also close to a
four-year high.
The ruling helped push Germanys
main stock index, the DAX, to its high-
est level since July of last year. The euro
rose to a four-month high against the
dollar.
When the Fed wraps up its meeting
Thursday, investors and economists
expect it to announce new steps to stim-
ulate economic growth, especially after a
Labor Department report showed
employers added fewer than 100,000
jobs last month.
Many investors are banking that the
Fed will commit to buying more bonds
and extend its pledge to keep short-term
interest rates near zero until 2015. The
Fed previously offered to keep them
there until late 2014.
Everyone is expecting the Fed to put
the pedal to the metal, said Jack Ablin,
chief investment ofcer at Harris Private
Bank in Chicago. Anything short of that
and we could have some serious disap-
pointment if the Fed doesnt come
through. No news will be bad news.
Ablin was skeptical that the Fed would
begin another bond-buying program.
The Fed hatched two previous efforts
when economic gures looked bleaker
than today. The rst came in March
2009, right after the nancial crisis. Both
programs ignited stock rallies.
The economy has plenty of problems
now, but there are some great things
happening, too, Ablin said.
In fact, he was about to give a talk
detailing reasons for optimism.

SAN FRANCISCO Apple on
Wednesday revealed that the new
iPhone 5 will be in stores in the U.S.
and several other countries on Sept. 21.
The other launch countries are
Australia, Canada, France, Germany,
Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore and the
U.K.
A week later, the phone will be avail-
able in 22 more countries, including
Italy, Poland and Spain.
In the U.S., pre-orders will start this
Friday.
The phone is thinner and lighter than
the iPhone 4S and a third of an inch
taller. That provides room for a taller
screen, as expected. That means another
row of icons will t on the screen, but
the phone isnt wider than its predeces-
sors.
The iPhone 5 is the years most eager-
ly awaited phone launch, and analysts
expect Apple Inc. to sell tens of millions
of units before the year is out.
The phone will cost the same as the
iPhone 4S did when it debuted, starting
at $199 with a two-year contract in the
U.S. Meanwhile, the price for the
iPhone 4S will drop to $99 for new con-
tract signers, and the iPhone 4 will be
free.
The iPhone 5 will come with the
capability to connect to the fastest new
wireless data networks, both in the U.S.
and overseas. Thats another feature that
was widely expected. Some competing
phones in the U.S. have had this ability
for a year and an half.
Apple: iPhone 5 in stores Sept. 21
At Ford, questions remain about life after Mulally
DETROIT The big question at Ford these days: Whats
next?
The company has thrived under the charismatic leadership
of Alan Mulally. But the sunny 67-year-old CEO who joined
Ford six years ago appears close to retirement. Reports say
hell step down at the end of next year.
That leaves many wondering whether the storied
Dearborn, Mich., automaker can continue to prosper without
the man that saved it from nancial collapse.
The front-runner is Mark Fields, who for years has run the
companys most protable operations in North, South and
Central America. Fords board likely will discuss succession
plans at a meeting Thursday. Whoever gets the job will face
tremendous global challenges.
Fields, 51, could be named chief operating ofcer, a sign
that hes the boards pick as the next CEO. He wrote the
restructuring plan that Mulally used to bring Ford back from
the edge of bankruptcy. But before Mulally, Fields had trou-
ble getting the plans to work in a dysfunctional company,
even with support from then-CEO Bill Ford Jr.
Zuckerberg lifts Facebooks battered stock
NEW YORK CEO Mark Zuckerbergs talk of
Facebooks mobile prospects and his acknowledgment that
the company cares about making money as well as making
the world more open and connected lifted the battered
shares of the social networking icon on Wednesday.
On Tuesday, Zuckerberg spoke at a tech conference in San
Francisco in his rst interview since Facebooks rocky initial
public offering in May. The stock has lost roughly half its
value since the IPO. On Wednesday it gained $1.50, or 7.7
percent, to close at $20.93, still 45 percent below its IPO
price of $38.
He explained past missteps and challenges related to
mobile and provided reasons for related optimism, wrote
S&P Capital IQ equity analyst Scott Kessler in a note to
investors.

f youre a fan of Peninsula Athletic
League sports, youve seen John
Mylod at various PAL football and
basketball games. Hes usually well dressed
and moving a mile a minute around the
eld or the court, always in a hurry.
As the sports director at KCEA 89.1 FM,
Mylod is the life blood for live coverage of
football and basketball games during the
season, as well as the weekly Inside the
P.A.L. show, live from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.
Wednesdays. With the proliferation of
attention paid to high
school sports in vari-
ous media, Mylod has
represented the PAL
for the last 16 years.
Friday marks the
451st live broadcast
of games when
KCEA does the
Woodside at San
Mateo football game
at 7 p.m.
Mylod, a 1987
Sequoia High gradu-
ate, fell in love with
radio early on. He worked as intern at
KNBR and, by the time he left in 2002, he
was the executive producer of the Fitz and
Brooks and Razor and Mr. T shows.
When he started the broadcasting of PAL
games and doing the Inside the P.A.L
show, he thought it was for the betterment
of his own career.
In the beginning, [I did it] for selsh
reasons. I wanted to work on myself, start
working up (the radio ladder), Mylod said.
Now its something I cant imagine not
doing.
The year before he took over at KCEA,
the weekly half-hour show was taped and
there were no live game broadcasts.
Sixteen years later, Mylod is proud to say
he has missed only a handful of broadcasts,
and none in the last 13 years.
Not even Mylod, who wears as many
hats as can be conceivable, can do it alone.
He enlists the help of mostly high school
students, who become producers and engi-
neers. They learn the nuts and bolts of the
radio industry, not only behind the scenes,
but as on-air talent. Most students only stay
for one or two seasons, although ideally

Serras Anthony Buljan winds for a shot during the Padres12-8 loss toSt. Francis in the WCAL opener Wednesday. Buljan scored three times.
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Serra water polo coach Bob Greene was so
red up about the prospects of this years
team, that he thought the Padres had a chance
to run the table in the West Catholic Athletic
League.
Turns out the Padres have a little more work
to do. Hosting perennial Central Coast
Section power St. Francis in the league open-
er Wednesday, the Padres closed the gap with
the Lancers, but St. Francis pulled away in the
second half for a 12-8 victory.
Were happy with the way we played, said
Serra hole set Anthony Buljan, who led the
Padres with three goals. We were with them
the rst three quarters. In the fourth quarter,
we let them get some counters.
Serra led 5-4 at halftime and 6-5 early in the
third quarter following a Buljan goal on a 5-
meter penalty shot, but the Lancers slowly
wore down the Padres, outscoring them 7-2
the rest of the way.
We ran out of gas, Greene said. We went
hard in the rst and second (periods). We tried
to slow things down in the third, but costly
turnovers led to counters and they got to us.
The Lancers really turned up the defensive
pressure in the second half, coming up with
10 steals in the third and fourth periods alone.
They then beat the Padres to the other end of
the pool for a number of odd-man attacks that
resulted in goals.
You can [have] quality possessions and not
get a shot off. But turnovers kill you, Greene
said. You cant turn the ball over [in the mid-
dle of the pool]. If youre going to make a
mistake, make it down by the cage.
St. Francis got on the board rst, but Buljan
tied the game at 1. Goaltender Steve Olujic,
who nished with 13 saves, nearly gave the
Padres the lead, but his length-of-the-pool
shot just missed the St. Francis goal as the
rst-period buzzer sounded.
Serra eventually took a two-goal lead less
than three minutes into the second period on
back-to-back goals from Joe Kmak and
Brandon Yee, but St. Francis got a goal back a
minute later. Serra pushed the lead back to
two on Yees second goal of the match, but the
Lancers tied the game on a 5-meter penalty
shot and a goal with less than two minutes to
play in the half off of a Serra turnover.
But Serra went into the break up a goal
when Buljan chased down a pass from Olujic,
held off the defender and slammed a shot into
the back of the cage with ve seconds left in
the second period.
St. Francis tied the game on a fast-break
goal early in the third before Buljan converted
his penalty shot, giving Serra its last lead of
the game, 6-5.
The Lancers tied the game at 6 on a power-

The College of San Mateo football team is
coming to a television near you.
CSMs athletic department and Astound
Broadband announced Wednesday a partner-
ship that will bring Bulldog football game
telecasts to KCSM, Astound channel 17 on
the Peninsula and channel 21 in the Concord-
Walnut Creek-Pleasant Hill areas. Astound
serves over 90,000 customers in Northern
California and is instrumental in bringing
CSM Football to television in the Bay Area.
The rst telecast will be CSMs Hall of
Fame Game against Diablo Valley College.
Its scheduled to air at noon on Sunday.
Although this weekends game will be
broadcast, the agreement between CSM and
Astound is still being nalized.
This unique partnership with Astound is
ground-breaking for College of San Mateo
and will bring a quality product, Bulldog
Football, to Bay Area residents, said CSM
Athletic Director Andreas Wolf. Astound
continues to demonstrate their commitment to
local programming and connection with the
county of San Mateo and the greater Bay
Area.
The partnership is the brainchild of CSMs
Sports Information Director Fred Baer, who
said the wheels began turning when he was
doing work at the 2012 London Olympic
games.
Its really a great opportunity for us, Baer
said. This particular thing came together sur-
prising well and only over the last couple of
weeks did everything fall into place. If they
(Astound) wanted to pick a game to do, it
would have been CSM and DVC. And here it
was sitting in front of them. So that made our
job a little easier. It wasnt a hard sell.
We couldnt be happier about partnering
with CSM to bring Bulldog football games to
Bay Area television, wrote Astound Chief
Marketing Ofcer Arah Peck in press release.
[Its] a true testament of our commitment to
supporting the communities we serve and
delivering the quality programming our cus-
tomers want. Astound provides a unique local
choice for advanced cable services and we
appreciate the opportunity for more local area
residents to discover Astound through our
support of CSMs football program.
According to the agreement, Astound cable
customers will receive enhanced benefits,
including availability of games on demand.
KCSM, CSMs pioneer educational television
station, is must-carry on all systems, so all
CSM football games will be available in more
Astound to broadcast CSM football games

Last year, the College of San
Mateo inducted into its Hall of Fame
legendary baseball coach John Noce
and his 771 career wins.
In 2012, the rst of his legendary
players, Frank Pignataro Jr., will join
him.
Pignataro is one of 15 new mem-
bers scheduled for induction Friday
afternoon at the Hall of Fame plaza
on the College of San Mateo campus.
To be honest with you, Pignataro
said, its still being processed. My
career there at San Mateo was so
many years ago and to have this
come in at this time of my life, its
totally unexpected. Its totally appre-
ciated but Im extremely humbled by
the honor.
Its quite an honor to be inducted
into the Hall of Fame with coach
Noce already being there and thats
what makes it kind of surreal for me
with his accomplishments and
the excellence in which he was able
to do his career. Im totally honored
by that.
Pignataro attended CSM from the
fall of 1966 through the spring of
1968. He became one of the best
baseball players to ever wear a
Bulldog uniform. Pignataro was cap-
tain of the 1967 and 1968 Bulldog
baseball teams and the Most Valuable
Player in 1968. He was named to the
All-Golden Gate Conference team in
1967 and 1968, and was additionally
named MVP in his second season.
Just the overall experience of
playing for John Noce was excep-
tional, Pignataro said. There were
so many things that I was able to
learn about the game of baseball but
also things that not only helped me
become a better ball player, there
were things I was able to transfer
over into every day life as I left ath-
letics and started a professional
career.
The relationships with the play-
ers, the opportunity to make some
life-long friends that were there it
really was a team for two years.
When I left to go somewhere else
after that, it still felt more as a team
those two years in San Mateo than I
did in any other location that I may
have gone to.
Before his time as a Bulldogs,
Pignataro owned high school athlet-
ics at Carlmont High School where
he earned 11 Block C letters in
addition to being his senior class
president, Frank was All-Conference
in football, soccer and baseball. He
was named to the All-SPAL baseball
team all four years playing under Jim
Mason, who he credits a lot of his
lifes success to on and off the eld.
Pignataro was Carlmont High
Schools Athlete of the Year in 1966.
Athletics was something that was
still very important, Pignataro said
of his time at Carlmont. A lot the
older upperclassmen were very good
athletes. You just wanted to emulate
them a bit and being an athlete was
important to me. It kept me off the
street. I think athletics kept my nose
headed in the right direction.
When Pignataro left Carlmont, he
joined CSM and tore up the baseball
diamond.
He hit .369 in 1968 and he set a
two-year career batting average
record of .355.
I think for me, when I was play-
ing, I just really wanted to put solid
contact on the ball and try to not do
too much with it, Pignataro said of
his skill as a hitter. If a pitch tended
to be over the plate outside, Id go to
right, right-center. If they gave me
something inside, Id pull the ball a
little bit. But, try to make good con-
tact using the alleys. I had a pret-
ty small strike zone and I think a lot
of pitchers had to come into my zone
and I thought I had the chance to see
some pretty good pitches a lot of the
time. I was more of a line drive hitter,
more of an alley hitter and a lot of my
hits tended to go in that direction.
Upon transferring to the University
of California at Riverside, Pignataro
continued his outstanding play. In
each of his two seasons at UCR, he
was the team captain and MVP.
Pignataro earned a bachelor of arts
degree in social science and a high
school teaching credential. After a
career in teaching and school admin-
istration, Pignataro became an execu-
tive with State Farm Insurance
Companies. Now, a couple of days
from joining his legendary coach in
CSM immortality, Pignataro recalls
with fondness his time as a Bulldog.
The things I keep coming back to,
it was always about the team,
Pignataro said. It was never about
the individual when you played for
coach. No matter how good you
were, that was always left at the door
and it was always what you could do
to contribute to the team and it made
the team better. He was a stickler for
fundamentals. Do the little the things
and repeat it, repeat it and repeat it.
And with the fundamentals and the
repetition comes the discipline
behind that and the work that goes
behind it. You cant just go do it once
and say you got it. And that takes dis-
cipline and perseverance.
If you could play for him (Noce),
I mean, even before I got to San
Mateo I knew his reputation that he
was tough, great baseball man but it
wasnt going to be easy, he said.
Yet if you could do it, you were
going to come out a better player and
a better person than before you got in
there. Without a question, thats what
happened. Hes probably the best
baseball man Ive ever been around.
The CSM Hall of Fame ceremony
will begin at 4 p.m. with a plaque
unveiling. Along with Pignataro, the
2012 class includes, Norm Angelini,
Stacy Bergstedt, Greg Buckingham,
Oliver Byrd, Chris Diehl, Rich
Donner, Jeff Fishback, Cindy
Galarza, Steve Hamann, Ed Kertel,
Mike Lewis, Tom Scott, Steve
Shafer, Jack Thur and Berny Wagner.
Following the unveiling, there will
be a cocktail hour and silent auction
at the Bayview dining room before
the dinner and induction ceremony at
6 p.m.
I would like to be able to relate to
the fact that my opportunity in sports
started at home with my mother and
father and their openness and sup-
port, Pignataro said. My dad, Frank
Sr., coached me all through little
league and was important in instilling
in me the love of sports and baseball.
And doing it the right way.

SANTA CLARA David Akers
mouth fell open and his eyes popped
as he threw his arms into the air in
both celebration and disbelief.
Somehow, a eld goal from 63 yards
out had gone in after bouncing off
the crossbar.
Akers knows well that this one eas-
ily could have missed badly, and
poked fun at himself as he relived the
record-tying kick this week.
Its about like a once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity, Akers said, once nally
able to reect and watch the eld goal
on lm. It was neat to get the oppor-
tunity and to nish it off in such a
great fashion, because most of my
kicks that have hit the poles in years
past make that lovely sound like we
heard and then it comes bouncing
back onto the eld.
Moments later, San Franciscos
spot-on kicker was mobbed by team-
mates as the 49ers (1-0) headed into
halftime of last weeks season-open-
ing victory at Green Bay with a 16-7
lead.
Akers facial expressions became
nearly as big a deal in the highlight
reels as the kick itself, which just so
happened to tie an NFL record for
longest ever. Coach Jim Harbaugh
jumped for joy.
Akers compared his feat to a golfer
going with just the right club and
making a hole-in-one.
You have to do two things on
every kick: You have to get it long
enough and youve got to get it
between the sticks, Akers said. The
one thing I didnt want to do is over-
kick it. I almost didnt hit it, I
thought, well enough. Thats where a
lot of the shock came from. To me I
just think its a blessing and a mira-
cle, honestly, for my own little per-
sonal deal. Thats the way I saw it. I
was like, Theres no way I hit it good
enough.
And thats saying something com-
ing from the guy who set a single-
season record with 44 eld goals last
year.
On Tuesday, the ball was still at
team headquarters but being prepared
for its trip to Canton, Ohio, and the
Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Many of Akers teammates remain
amazed the Eagles ever let this guy
get away after 12 years in
Philadelphia.
The 37-year-old Akers, a six-time
Pro-Bowler in his 15th NFL season
out of Louisville, was considered
among the 49ers most important off-
season acquisitions after they signed
him to a three-year deal in late July
2011.
He showed just why from Day 1,
and the rest of the way as San
Francisco fell just short of reaching
the Super Bowl in a 20-17 overtime
loss in the NFC title game to the
eventual champion New York Giants.
Aside from his 44 made eld goals
last season, Akers also set a record for
most attempted at 52 and most points
without a touchdown with 166. That
far surpassed the 49ers previous best
by Hall of Fame receiver Jerry
Rice, no less. Rice scored 138 points
in 1987.
But Sundays milestone meant a lot
because such kicks just dont come
around every day. Thus, his reaction
when he nailed it.
I thought it was amazing. Again,
you hit it and you dont think you hit
it well enough, then it hits the cross-
bar. Im like, All right, thats going
to be great, you have 63 and you
came up an inch short, and then it
was the opposite and it went in,
Akers said.

ALAMEDA The high-risk, high-reward
passes that characterized Carson Palmers rst
half-season as Oakland Raiders quarterback
were absent in the season opener.
Instead of taking chances for big plays down
the eld in the passing game, Palmer mostly
chose the safer route of dumpoffs to running
back Darren McFadden.
The change in strategy led to a turnover-free
performance from a quarterback who threw 16
interceptions in nine games a year ago but also
led to a lack of big plays for an Oakland
offense that relied on them last year.
Palmer threw just three of his 46 passes more
than 20 yards downeld, completing none of
those throws, in the season-opening 22-14 loss
to the San Diego Chargers. Last season, Palmer
threw about one out of every seven passes
deep, completing 16 of those throws that
accounted for six of his 13 TD passes.
Were going to be patient, Palmer said.
Im going to continue to let the offense come
to me and take shots when theyre there, but
also be smart with the ball and try to stay on
the eld and move the chains and win the time
of possession battle.
Palmer had a 104.9 rating on deep passes last
season, seventh among all quarterbacks with
more than 10 such throws. The players ahead
of him on that list were some of the most effec-
tive passers in the game last season: Aaron
Rodgers, Tony Romo, Matt Schaub, Drew
Brees, Matthew Stafford and Tom Brady.
With a new offense
under coordinator Greg
Knapp that stresses a more
ball-control style, the
absence of injured deep
threats Denarius Moore
and Jacoby Ford, and a
Chargers defense geared to
stop the deep ball, Palmer
ended up throwing shorter
passes instead.
He threw 18 passes to McFadden, tied for
the most targets to any running back in a game
since 1991, as he followed the maxim of taking
what the defense gives.
I thought Carson did a nice job of looking,
trying to get the ball downeld, not forcing the
ball downeld, taking his checkdown when it
was available, coach Dennis Allen said. We
threw the ball effectively, we had ve explosive
gains in the passing game. So the passing game
was not the issue.
McFadden only gained 86 yards on his 13
catches as Palmer averaged 9.3 yards per com-
pletion, down from his mark of 13.8 a year
ago, which was second best in the NFL.
Palmer had only one pass play over 25 yards
after having eight in two games against San
Diego a year ago.
You cant let it frustrate you, Palmer said.
Once you start getting frustrated thats when
you start forcing the ball into holes where they
want you to throw it. If theyre going to make
us check it down and we have Darren to check
it down to were going to do it.
Moore was one of the games best deep
threats as a rookie with his average catch com-
ing 14.3 yards down eld fourth highest in
the league. He missed the opener with a ham-
string injury rst sustained in minicamp in
June. Moore practiced briey at the start of
training camp before being shut down again.
He returned to the practice eld last week
but was held out of the game by Allen, who did
not want to risk further injury. Moore practiced
again Wednesday and is expected to play this
week in Miami.
He looked like Denarius of old, Palmer
said. He made a couple phenomenal catches.
His burst was there last week, its just I think
more conditioning, really getting in practice.
Theres a totally different type of shape.
Ford, meanwhile, will be out for a signicant
amount of time to undergo surgery on a
Lisfranc injury to his left foot.
NOTES: CB Ron Bartell broke his shoulder
blade Monday and will be sidelined for a
while. ... The Raiders signed LS Nick Guess,
DL Brandon Bair and CB Coye Francies and
released WR Brandon Carswell, LB Nathan
Stupar and DL Vaughn Meatoga. Guess could
be activated for the game if Pro Bowl long
snapper Jon Condo cant go. Condo did not
practice because of a concussion. Oakland
botched three punts Monday after Condo left
the game. ... C Stefen Wisniewski got rst-
team work and could start for the rst time
since being sidelined in the exhibition opener
with a calf injury. ... RB Taiwan Jones (ribs)
and LB Rolando McClain (ankle) missed prac-
tice and are day to day.
Palmer plays it safe in Raiders opener
DENVER Tim Lincecum pitched effectively
for six innings to extend his road winning streak to
a career-best ve straight, Brandon Crawford dou-
bled twice and drove in two runs, and the San
Francisco Giants beat the Colorado Rockies 8-3
Wednesday night to continue their strong play
away from home.
Marco Scutaro added three hits, including a pair
of run-scoring singles, to help the NL West-leading
Giants take two of three from the Rockies and
improve to 21-7 on the road since the All-Star
break, best in the NL. They
are unbeaten in their last nine
series on the road (8-0-1).
Lincecum (9-14), who
allowed three runs on six hits,
has gured prominently in
that run of success, going 5-0
with a 2.61 ERA in his last
ve road starts. The two-time
NL Cy Young award winner
had struggled on the road
earlier, going 1-6 with a 9.00
ERA through his rst 10 starts away from home.
He nished with eight strikeouts and four walks.
Jeff Francis (5-5) couldnt recover from a tough
rst inning and took the loss, allowing ve runs on
seven hits in three innings. He struck out ve and
walked none.
Down 6-2 in the sixth after Crawford doubled
for the second time and scored on Scutaros second
single, the Rockies added a run in their half of the
sixth on Charlie Blackmons pinch-hit RBI double.
But the Giants added a pair of runs in the ninth
on a run-scoring triple by Hunter Pence and
Joaquin Arias sacrice y.
The Giants had grabbed a 5-0 lead by batting
around in the rst inning. Gregor Blanco tripled off
Francis to start the game and scored when Scutaro
followed with a single. Buster Posey and Arias
each singled around Pences elders choice to
account for another run and Hector Sanchez hit an
RBI single ahead of Crawfords two-out, two-run
double that rolled to the right eld wall.
Colorado pulled to 5-2 behind Wilin Rosarios
RBI single in the rst and his solo homer in the
third. Rosario drove Lincecums 83 mph changeup
deep into the left eld bleachers for his team-lead-
ing 24th homer, one shy of the Rockies rookie
record set by Todd Helton (25) in 1998.
NOTES: The Giants last lost a series on the road
July 6-8 when they dropped two of three in
Pittsburgh. ... Rockies C Ramon Hernandez had a
second MRI on his injured left hamstring after the
results of the rst were inconclusive. Results from
the second MRI were pending. ... Giants CF Angel
Pagan was held out of the starting lineup after a cal-
lous on his left hand cracked, causing a cut. He
made an appearance as a pinch-hitter in the eighth
and nished the game in center. ... The Giants have
an off day Thursday. ... RHP Matt Cain (13-5) is
slated to start Friday nights game at Arizona
against the Diamondbacks Tyler Skaggs (1-1). ...
Since July 1, Crawford is hitting .441 (15 for 34)
against left-handed pitching. ... Slumping Giants

ANAHEIM A.J. Grifn threw eight score-
less innings, becoming the second Athletics pitch-
er in 85 years to start his major league career with
six straight wins, and Yoenis Cespedes homered
for Oakland in a 4-1 victory over the Los Angeles
Angels on Wednesday night.
The Athletics, who can sweep the four-game
series by beating Angels ace Jered Weaver on
Thursday, have won 15 of 18 and are 22 games
over .500 (82-60) for the rst time since the 2006
club nished 93-69.
The As won their 12th consecutive road game,
matching the 1971 squad for the longest streak
since the club relocated from Kansas City to
Oakland in 1968. The franchise record is 14 in a
row, set in May 1931.
Oaklands road winning streak is the longest in
the majors since 2003, when Seattle won 13
straight away from Safeco Field.
Grifn struck out six and walked none in the
longest of his 11 career starts. The 24-year-old
right-hander, one of four rookies in the As rota-
tion along with Jarrod Parker, Dan Straily and
Tommy Milone, lowered his ERA to 1.94 in his
third start off the disabled list.
The only other As pitcher since 1927 to win his
rst six decisions as a big leaguer was Jim Nash,
who was 7-0 over his rst nine starts in 1966.
Sean Doolittle gave up a leadoff homer in the
ninth by Albert Pujols before Ryan Cook got the
nal out for his 14th save. Pujols, a three-time NL
MVP, became the rst player in history with 30
homers in each of his rst 12 big league seasons.
He also tied Stan Musial and Willie Stargell for
28th place on the career list with No. 475.
Ervin Santana (8-12) was charged with two
runs one earned and four hits over six
innings. He struck out six.
It was the eighth time this season that his team-
mates didnt score a run while he was in the game
including ve straight starts by Santana in
which the Angels were shut out.
Oakland got an unearned run in the rst when
Josh Reddick doubled with two outs and scored
on an error by shortstop Erick Aybar.
Cespedes made it 2-0 with his 18th homer lead-
ing off the sixth, ending a career-worst 22-game
homerless drought. The As tacked on two runs in
the eighth with Derek Norris RBI double and an
RBI single by Coco Crisp.
Oakland on fire, go for sweep today
UConn mens basketball coach
Jim Calhoun set to retire
NEW YORK Jim Calhoun has spent
more than half his life as a head basketball
coach, never venturing far from the New
England area where he was born.
Between coaching stints at Northeastern
and Connecticut, he racked up 873 wins
625 of them coming at his beloved UConn,
where he ran the mens program for 26 years
and won three national titles.
Recently, though, the 70-year-old Hall of
Famer has struggled with health problems,
including a fractured hip last month that put
him on crutches. On Thursday, he planned to
announce his retirement, a person familiar
with the decision told The Associated Press.
The person spoke to the AP on condition of
anonymity because Calhouns move had not
yet been made public. WVIT-TV in Hartford
rst reported the expected announcement.
Assistant coach Kevin Ollie was expected to
replace Calhoun, the person who spoke to the
AP said. The school scheduled a 2 p.m. news
conference to address the future of the mens
basketball program.
Ollie will take over a Huskies team that is
ineligible for the 2013 NCAA tournament
because of its failure to meet national aca-
demic standards, one of several off-court
problems that hit UConn late in Calhouns
tenure.
The Huskies will open this year with just
ve players who saw signicant playing time
last season.
Before fracturing his hip, Calhoun fought
off cancer three times and missed eight games
last season while suffering from a painful
spinal condition. He returned just four days
after having back surgery to coach the
Huskies in their regular-season nale and the
postseason.
UConn nished the year 20-14, losing to
Iowa State in the rst-round of the NCAA
tournament.

Bay Area homes than those of any other area
college or university.
Im trying to do this statewide, said Baer,
who coordinates athletic information through-
out California. We make JC footballs infor-
mation for everybody available not just
CSM. Were trying to be at the forefront and a
pioneer and do it right and we want to do all
the things we can do. You have to have the
support. We have great support for athletics
here [administrators] who see the value of
it. Its a very positive thing.
After Sundays broadcast, all six remaining
regular season games will be aired live in high
denition. Astound is a leading provider of
video, Internet and phone services, serving
residential and business customers in commu-
nities in the San Francisco Bay Area, includ-
ing San Francisco, Daly City, South San
Francisco, Burlingame, San Mateo, Redwood
City, Walnut Creek, Concord, and Pleasant
Hill.
In recent years, the College of San Mateo
football program has gone from a great pro-
gram to one of the most elite not just in
California but the United States.
CSMs football program is part of the
NorCal Conference, arguably the toughest
conference in the state and nation.
In 2009, the Bulldogs went 10-2, were
Northern California Champions and nished
the season ranked fourth in the nation after
hosting the state championship game. In 2010
and 2011, they posted 8-3 seasons, winning a
bowl game in each.
Each year, 15 to 25 CSM football players
earn scholarships and move on to four-year
schools including the University of Southern
California, University of Oregon and last sea-
sons national runner-up, Louisiana State
University. These transfers equal approxi-
mately a million dollars annually in scholar-
ships awarded to players and their families.
The added exposure doesnt just benet the
athletes but the College of San Mateo educa-
tion system as well.
Were discovering that this is something
we can show the Board of Trustees that
KCSM is viable and they can take it off the
auction block, Baer said. And hopefully the
board can take another look at what they can
do locally and the infrastructure they have.
The Bulldogs began the 2012 season with
wins over Laney and Chabot colleges and face
a huge threat this weekend against DVC.
Kick-off for that game is scheduled for 1 p.m.
Im thrilled that we can take advantage of
what we have here and use all of it, Baer said
of the partnership. Its been frustrating in
recent years not to take advantage of KCSMs
capabilities and now were opening the door
to do that again. That is very exciting. Were
trying to show that community colleges can
be out in front.
BROADCAST
Mylod would like them to start their fresh-
man year in high school and then move on
when they graduate. Currently, Joe Lami has
been one of the longest tenured producers
working with Mylod, entering his sixth year.
Mylod said the most students hes had at one
time always seems to max out at four.
He would love to have more because that
would mean even more coverage of the PAL.
Without me leading, we probably would-
nt be doing [the show], Mylod said. But
without the kids, we wouldnt be doing it
(either).
Despite being a real radio show, there is
not million of dollars of equipment. In fact, a
computer and phone is about all Mylod
needs to broadcast games onsite. He said he
uses his smartphone as an Internet hub to
send signal back to the radio station and uses
Skype to do the play-by-play and color com-
mentary.
Its crystal clear, Mylod said.
And, if only for a few instances when the
signal gets disconnected, the technology is
remarkably reliable. In the old days, Mylod
said, he used to broadcast games through his
cellphones essentially a three-hour phone
call. Before that, We had a microwave sig-
nal with a 50-foot antenna and about a hun-
dred pounds of equipment. It was brutal.
Now, he can t almost all his equipment in a
milk crate.
The Wednesday night Inside the P.A.L.
show is done in studio and features the
coaches and a player from each team for that
weeks game broadcast (last night, it was San
Mateo coach Jeff Scheller and Bearcat Larry
Campbell, along with Woodside coach Josh
Bowie and quarterback Josh Holman). There
is also a call-in segment, stats and highlights
from last weeks games, and just a general
discussion about PAL football, along with a
little bit of West Catholic Athletic League
talk as well.
I think people like it when we show up
(to broadcast games). I think the coaches like
it. They like the little bit of publicity they
get, Mylod said. In the history of the
Inside the P.A.L., weve never missed a
show. In the last 13 years, weve never
missed a scheduled game. I am proud of
that.
While the gig is essentially a working
classroom for the high school producers, it is
also run like a professional radio station in
that there are no excuses for not getting the
job done. Its a big commitment and while
Mylod understands there are school obliga-
tions, he expects all his producers and engi-
neers to manage their day so that they can
get school and radio work done. Dont think
its cool to ake out at the last minute. Much
like playing on an athletic team, if you make
the commitment to be there, youd better be
there for the team.
Not that Mylod is a taskmaster. He under-
stands and accepts that school comes rst,
but think about everything you do before you
commit to working with Mylod.
I like telling the kids, No matter what,
we dont quit, Mylod said. They do, and
their parents, understand that commitment.
What originally started as a half-hour,
taped segment of PAL football has morphed
into a weekly game along with a weekly,
two-hour live, in-depth look at football and
basketball on the Peninsula. Mylod should be
applauded for his dedication to the local
sports scene. Could even Mylod imagine how
far this has come?
No. Not even close. I always thought I
would be moving on and moving up, Mylod
said. Once I got to 10 years, I couldnt
imagine not working the show.
If there are any students interested in get-
ting a rsthand look at how a radio broadcast
is set up, contact Mylod at
john@advocate4athletes.com, or call him at
650-456-8976.
Were always looking for kids (to help
with production), Mylod said. They dont
need to know anything (about radio). They
just need to have an interest and passion for
sports.

Kmak tied the score at 7 when he put home a
rebound off a Buljan miss, but St. Francis

quarter to take a 9-7 lead heading into the nal

The Lancers scored the rst two goals of the

and all but end Serras chances of making a

Despite the loss, Greene was pleased with
his teams performance.
Last year, we werent close at all. Last
year, they were a legitimate 10 goals better
than us, Greene said. This year, were as
good as they are.
Im not disappointed at all. My starting

in. We need three guys that step up and
then well beat these guys.

Akers also booted a pair of eld goals from
40 yards or beyond, giving him another
impressive opener after he kicked four in Week
1 of the 2011 season against Seattle.
The farther you get back, its not whether
you have the strength, its whether you can
keep it straight for that distance. Thats a long
way, 49ers punter Andy Lee said. David hit
the ball great and that was awesome.
The Lions (1-0) wont be shocked by Akers
leg strength and accuracy come Sunday night
at Candlestick Park. They watched him hit a
55-yarder last fall at Ford Field, where San
Francisco rallied to hand Detroit its rst defeat
following a 5-0 start.
As always with the unselsh, team-rst
Akers, he was quick to give credit to the offen-
sive line for standing in and giving him ample
time to make it at hostile Lambeau Field.
You cant go out and even attempt stuff like
that without them really sticking their nose in
there and being the old mudhogs that they are,
he said.
Harbaugh last season said he would be com-
fortable letting Akers kick from 60 yards if the
conditions and game situation made it the right
move and Akers has proved himself
dependable from way out.
It doesnt surprise us, safety Donte
Whitner said. We understand that hes
arguably the best kicker in the National
Football League. I think that Coach agrees
with that and the rest of my teammates and the
coaching staff.

BRISTOL, Conn. Former ESPN
anchor George Grande says that when
he signed on to host the rst
SportsCenter in 1979, he had a feeling
there might be a market for more than
just the 3 minutes of sports people were
used to seeing on the local news.
He was right. On Thursday, ESPN
will air its 50,000th SportsCenter, the
networks agship show of highlights,
news and analysis that has had a major
impact on the nations sports culture.
Its changed the expectation of
every sports fan in the United States,
said Dennis Deninger, a former ESPN
executive who now runs the sports
communications graduate program at
Syracuse University. We now expect
to see highlights from every game,
wherever it is played. If there is some-
thing odd or strange anywhere a
triple play we expect to be able to
see it, and see it immediately. Thats
what this show has done.
It also has given the job of sports-
caster national celebrity status, blurred
some of the lines between entertain-
ment and news, and in some cases had
an impact on the sports themselves,
said Pamela Laucella, the academic
director of the National Sports
Journalism Center at Indiana
University.
When the show highlights a dunk,
catch, touchdown or goal, athletes
know theyve made it when theyre on
SportsCenter and the weeks top 10
plays, she said.
Deninger said SportsCenter has also
made foreign the idea of sitting down
and watching an entire game on televi-
sion to many viewers who have grown
up with ESPN, and few fans, he said,
pick up a newspaper to read about a
game anymore.
Game stories are basically
dinosaurs, he said. People have
already seen that on SportsCenter. You
have to do personal features and nd
different layers.

L
ate September is an excellent time to
plant trees and shrubs. They can focus
on developing their root systems dur-
ing winter, and will be well established come
spring, when its time for the top to grow.
Prepare the planting area
Unless youre lucky enough to have loamy
soil, you rst will need to loosen the soil in
which you will plant the tree or shrub. The
planting area should be at least two to three
times the diameter of the plants root ball and
as deep as the root ball. Break up the soil well
with a rototiller, shovel or spading fork. If you
have very hard soil, you may need to use a
bore or auger.
Many gardeners add organic material to the
planting area, but its not proven to be of con-
sistent benet. If you do add organic matter,
make sure it is very well composted and con-
stitutes no more than about 25 percent of the
soil in the upper foot of the soil.
If you are planting a camellia, azalea or
rhododendron, all of which do best in well-
drained and acidic soil, you should add an
amendment (Our local soil is alkaline and
does not drain well). Check with your favorite
nursery about what type of amendment it rec-
ommends for these plants.
If you are planting a tree, keep it well away
from your house or other structure to reduce
damaging the foundation. After several years
in the ground, a healthy trees roots extend far
beyond its canopy (essentially the circumfer-
ence of the top of the tree). Most roots stay in
the top two feet of soil, and can stretch as far
a distance as two to three times the diameter
of the canopy.
Proper planting
Take the plant out of its container. If some
of its roots circle
around the root
ball (known as
being root bound),
gently separate
them and try to
coax them down.
If there is a mat of
roots at the bottom
of the root ball, prune it off. Cut off any bro-
ken roots, too.
Center and straighten the plant in the hole,
with the top of the root ball at or slightly
above the level of the surrounding soil. Fill
the hole with the prepared soil, then water the
plant well to settle the soil.
A few words about staking trees:
Trees that grew properly in the nursery
dont need to be staked. If the trees top is
much larger in proportion to its roots, it may
need to be staked for support. Use two stakes,
one on each side of the tree. Using soft ties
(without wires), loosely tie the trunk to each
stake so that the trunk can move a couple of
inches in every direction. You dont want the
tree to stand rigidly at attention when buffeted
by wind; you want it to ex and move a little,
and for the trunk to bend in the opposite
direction of its top.
Use stakes for the shortest time possible.
Remove the stakes once a tree has passed its
second growing season. Its always sad to see
a mature tree still tethered to its stakes, years
after being planted. Im always tempted to
launch a night-time raid to free the tree.

Trail cameras are becoming as
popular with gardeners and farmers
as they are with hunters, who use
them to monitor animal behavior.
These remotely operated devices
can detect anything moving through
orchards or elds in daylight or
darkness, good weather or bad.
The nature market is where our
cameras were popular in the begin-
ning, especially in Europe and the
U.K., said Darin Stephens, product
manager for Bushnell (Corp.) Trail
Cameras. Were talking wildlife
observers, scientists and backyard
naturalists.
But theyre also being purchased
now by people who have just been
planting things in their patch.
Theyre seeing some incredible
stuff.
That can include surprise wildlife
species, such as mountain lions in
territory where none were known to
exist, or deer eating their ll in sub-
urban vegetable beds.
Sometimes, the trail cams also
record uninvited guests pilfering
melons from gardens or siphoning
gasoline from farm fuel tanks.
A friend of mine has his set up
to watch coyotes and other preda-
tors to safeguard his cattle herd,
said Robert Good, a wildlife
watcher from rural New Market,
Va. I use mine primarily to see
whats out there thats not sup-
posed to be there.
Unlike pocket cameras, motion-
sensitive trail cams are remotely
operated by infrared sensors and
powered by batteries lasting up to a
year. The small, weatherproof units
come in cases that can be attached
to fence posts, utility poles and
trees, or mounted a few feet above
the ground near trails and ponds.
Images can be still, time-lapse or
video, and many of the devices
include audio. Newer models can
transmit real-time images directly
into computers. Prices vary from
around $100 to more than $400.
These optical gatekeepers have
come a long way since being intro-
duced a few decades
ago, said Stephens.
We offered models
with 1.3 megapixels (the
number of parts in a dig-
ital image) when we
started out, he said.
That was good enough
for seeing what was get-
ting into your garbage.
We have 8-meg cameras
now.
That magnitude of
enhanced resolution
delivers magazine-quali-
ty pictures. Their content
has become the stuff of
photo contests, websites,
even new business ven-
tures.
Jim Schoenike of
Mequon, Wis., works in
the investment service industry
when he isnt bow hunting or stalk-
ing the states forests and prairies.
His trail-cam-generated wildlife
pictures have become so popular
that hes begun imprinting and sell-
ing them on calendars, note cards
and clothing. (www.bigoakprod-
ucts.com )
You never really know whats
out there, Schoenike said.
Looking at the memory card after
the camera has been positioned for a
while is like opening Christmas
presents. Ive come up with some
uncommon pictures of bobcats
when Ive been expecting to see less
cautious raccoons. Capturing can-
did wildlife images requires more
thought than simply stashing a trail
cam in the woods, Schoenike said.
Some suggestions:
You need good quality light,
he said. I have a bias toward point-
ing my cameras toward the north to
avoid getting any glare from the
sun.
Remove grass or tree limbs that
might grow large enough to block
sightlines or trip the camera if its to
be left unattended for long periods.
Limit the time you spend around
the remote setup to reduce or elimi-
nate your scent. Human scent
spooks a good many animals,
Good said.
Remote cameras can be great tools for gardeners

them is one of the most remarkable sporting
experiences out there, Bonham said.
Maintaining these sh and other threatened
species has spawned a plan of action set to
take off in the upcoming week.
Shovel in tow, community and governmen-
tal volunteers will extend the dwindling chan-
nel by 75 feet in length, 3 feet in width and 1
foot in depth, Rutten said. Permits have been
issued allowing breach of the lagoon twice
from now until the end of the year. The rst
breach depends on water quality and forma-
tion of the sandbar. After testing on
Wednesday as well as Friday, the breach may
occur as early as Monday, Rutten said. An
expected 20 or so volunteers could spend sev-
eral hours to complete the pilot channel. Yet
regardless of this substantial effort, the pas-
sage is only expected to last a few days,
Rutten said.
An ongoing effect depends on crucial infor-
mation gathered by water quality monitors,
visual observations and the tagging of steel-
head. A science panel will review the data
before, during and after the breach in hopes of
developing a long-term strategy, Rutten said.
The goal of the movement is to resume a
balanced ecological system and encourage a
healthy estuary for the continuance of coastal
marine species, said Susan Moore, eld super-
visor of the Sacramento U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Ofce.
As simple as the digging of the channel may
be, the idea and potential results are delicately
complex.
Everything you do has an impact on every-
thing else; thats why endangered species are
important, thats why we protect them,
Moore said.
LAGOON
Food Center on Claremont Street for 19 years.
Some of the markets current customers
were once loyal Sunnybrae customers, said
Barbara Lentz, daughter and partner at Trags.
Lentz has been with Trags since day one as
has Chris Delios, a brother-in-law.
Lentz has watched her customers age grace-
fully over the decades and has seen a whole
new generation of customers discover the
market. She has a picture of a customer and
her two young children from many years ago.
They are in their 30s now, Lentz said.
Lentz and Tragoutsis were busy Wednesday
stufng gift bags to be given out over the next
couple of weeks as the store celebrates its
birthday.
Tragoutsis is mostly retired now but still
spends about 20 hours a week in the market
after running the markets meat department
for many years.
Hes our inspiration. Hes got a good atti-
tude and a lot of spirit, Lentz said about her
father.
Mostly now, Tragoutsis likes to keep an eye
on the books.
Service and quality, Tragoutsis said, is why
customers keep coming back.
There is no need to buy your produce at a
farmers market, he said.
We are a farmers market, he said. The
market buys its produce three times a week
from the same vendor.
The deli, he said, is also a big draw during
lunch when workers at the nearby hospital and
ofce buildings take their breaks.
As far as trends go, Lentz said people these
days are buying a lot more prepared foods.
The store has undergone three major remod-
els over the years and recently got a new paint
job. There was a bit of a dispute between the
family on what the colors should be.
Lentz lost the argument with the rest of the
family though and those pink tiles that adorn
the front of the market are still in place.
Despite the minor disagreements, the fami-
ly sticks together.
We are very fortunate to have such loyal
customers and good employees that have sup-
ported us through the challenging years,
Lentz said.
Trags market will hold a fundraiser for the
San Mateo High School band starting at 11
a.m., Saturday, Sept. 15, 303 Baldwin Ave.,
San Mateo.

Judge Britney rules on X Factor
LOS ANGELES Judge Britney Spears is
in control on The X Factor.
During the season debut airing Wednesday
on Fox, the audience cheers her, Simon Cowell
defers to her and Spears is crisp, if not a wit, in
her contestant verdicts.
We get the pop princess who knows how to
hold the spotlight, not the young woman who
has struggled in her personal life, in the taped
premiere of X Factor. Live episodes start air-
ing in November.
In the episode screened Tuesday night at
Graumans Chinese Theater, Spears frets that it
will be difcult to sit there and be opinionat-
ed.
Not so much.
I want to know who let you onstage, she
says to a contestant who insulted Demi Lovato,
the other freshman joining Simon Cowell and
Antonio L.A. Reid as a judge.
I felt I was listening to Alvin and the
Chipmunks, she tells one singer. Youre aw-
less, she says to another.
Jitters may be making her matter-of-fact, and
even stern, but she appears unlikely to morph
into a Paula Abdul-style pushover even if she
gets more comfortable. Her X Factor style:
sleek, form-tting dresses and an impressive
array of frowns and surprised smiles.
Cowell, the shows creator, executive produc-
er and the Scrooge of compliments, practically
beamed as he tended to
give Spears the last word
on contestants which
often is no, at least as this
episode has it.
Youre very good at
this, he tells Spears at one
point. Everyone says Im
the mean one, he adds
later.
At one point, when a
pained-looking Spears
joins the panel in rejecting a singer shed
recorded with, and who is attempting a come-
back, she hangs onto her composure.
There are more changes to X Factor than
the addition of Spears and Lovato, who
replaced season one Abdul and Nicole
Scherzinger after the show fell short of
Cowells high-ying ratings predictions.
The revamped X Factor retains the pro
forma mix of oddballs and genuinely talented
singers, but its less grandiose. One example:
The addition of a reality TV-style backstage
glance at contestant rivalries, but with a light
touch.
Foxs show isnt the only game in town. NBC
expanded this weeks return of The Voice to
three days, with an episode airing Wednesday
against X Factor.

People in the news
Britney Spears
THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 2012
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Its admirable of you to
be compassionate and charitable to persons who are
less fortunate than you. However, be practical when
it comes to the extent to which you help them.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Dont be surprised if a
couple of friends turn to you for help when it comes
to a problem that they cant unravel. Fortunately,
youll know how to resolve their issues.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- It is quite likely that
youll have a slight edge over your adversaries in a
competitive development. However, your margin of
error is rather thin, so dont push your luck.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- It might prove to
be benefcial to try to communicate with an old friend
who is presently residing at a new, distant location, if
youve got something he or she might be interested in.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- The chances of
achieving an important objective are likely to be bet-
ter today than they will be tomorrow. Dont put any-
thing off if it can easily be taken care of right now.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Pay heed to your
mates suggestions if a decision regarding a matter
of mutual concern has to be made sooner rather than
later. The added perspective could prove to be just
what the doctor ordered.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- A project that youre
undertaking with another has plenty of promising
potential. However, both parties must be patient,
because the rewards will be slow in coming.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Dont think less of
opportunities that presently offer only small rewards
because with time, some of them could turn out
quite well. Make sure you have an eye on long-term
potential.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- The main reason
that most conditions appear to be so promising
is because of your ability to overcome diffculties.
Youre able to accomplish what you envision, and
that counts for a lot.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Dont let a Johnny-
come-lately associate try to assume control of an ar-
rangement that youre better equipped to handle. Stand
up for what you know is not only fair but also best.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Trust your innate busi-
ness acumen because its the asset that will put you
in the black. Youre especially adroit at handling both
your pennies and dollars.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Others are likely to fnd the
example youre setting to be an excellent one, mostly
because theyll see you taking your responsibilities
seriously.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
JOHN J. LEE
Case Number 122692
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: John J. Lee. A Petition
for Probate has been filed by John J.
Lee, Jr. in the Superior Court of Califor-
nia, County of San Mateo. The Petition
for Probate requests that John J. Lee, Jr.
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 au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection 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 28,
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.
