Five weeks after a deadly re dis-
placed nearly 100 in Redwood
City, former residents of the
Hallmark House Apartments
expressed a load of frustration last
night for not being able to nd
housing nor recover their belong-
ings from the six-alarm blaze.
Redwood City officials along
with other service providers from
the county and local nonprot s

night at the Fair Oaks Community
Center to give former residents,
about half still homeless, an
update on how to retrieve their
belongings and find permanent
housing.
Much of the night, however, was
spent answering lots of questions
from the former residents as to
why they still have not been able
to recover their clothes, keep-
sakes and valuables after the July 7

by a custody dispute involving
The Lost Boys actor Jason
Patric that would allow certain
sperm donors to seek paternity
rights in court is on hold after fail-
ing to clear a legislative panel
Tuesday.
Patric testied before state law-
makers about his court battle to
gain custody of his now 3-year-old
son, Gus. A judge deemed him a
sperm donor rather than a par-
ent during a custody dispute
over the boy.
He and his ex-girlfriend,
Danielle Schreiber, conceived the
child through articial insemina-
tion. Patric and Schreiber, who
never married, disagree on the role
Patric was to play in the childs
life.

As more schools ramp up for
high-tech classrooms as part of
the implementation of new
Common Core standards, experts
in the eld warned of the impor-
tance of ensuring districts have
the infrastructure for digital educa-
tion to work.
Teachers need to know that the
network is going to work, or
theyre not going to use it, said
Evan Marwell, of Education
SuperHighway, a nonprofit
focused on broadband adoption in
U.S. schools, at a conference yes-
terday to illustrate the challenges
of moving to a entirely new way of
teaching.
Marwell said its a $7.5 billion
price tag to upgrade the Wi-Fi net-
works in the United States to be up
to code for the new tests and learn-
ing models. Marwell collected data
on the bandwidths of every school
district in San Mateo County and
found 53 percent of schools in the
county are ready for the new
assessments.

NewSchools Venture Fund included
a Common Core implementation
prototyping session in Redwood

Never put your pinky up.
For those enjoying tea during the
Victorian era, the proper way to hold ones
cup ngers grasping the handle between
them and never looped through was a key
element. Such etiquette dos and donts will
be shared this Sunday at the annual
Victorian Days inside the Old Courthouse in
Redwood City.
Attendees of the afternoon Victorian tea
will also learn the language of fans how
young people communicated at parties
and eavesdrop on period reenactors gossip-
ing about the goings on of the time. For
instance, the Duke of Manchester in
England visiting Sen. Milton Latham in
Menlo Park and President Grant visiting
William Sharon at Belmont. And did you
hear about when Grants son visited the
Floods of Menlo Park or tidbits about the
Athertons and the Crockers?
Some juicy stuff, said Mitch Postel,
president of the San Mateo County
Historical Association.
The Victorian era was named for Queen
Victoria who ruled from 1837 to 1901. The
Victorian Days is a way to discover just
what life was like in the 1800s.
Unlike past Victorian Days when visitors
watched actors performing skits, this years
attendees will be encouraged to mingle with
the costumed performers and eavesdrop on
their chatter. Participants will sip tea
using newly learned tips like placing the
spoon to the right of the cup to signal a
desire for more tea and nibble on nger
sandwiches and scones. They will also learn
and practice the fan signals and see models
in vintage garb.
The models are all high-school-age girls,
said Carmen Blair, deputy director of the San
Mateo County Historical Association.
Theyre the only ones who t the sizes of
the era, she said.
The tea is just one component of Sundays
afternoon of fun and culminates months of
Victorian walking tours around San Mateo
County. Saturday will also be the last
docent-led tour through the 19th century
Union Cemetery in Redwood City.
There will also be childrens crafts includ-
ing tea cup decorating, designing old-time
hats, fashioning picture frames and creating
fans and toy pocket watches. They can also
make thaumatropes which are moving pic-
ture playthings and learn the code of
using calling cards.
Once visitors get their Victorian x, they
can also enjoy the rest of the museum for
free that day.
Victorian Days dates back to 1979 when it
began in San Mateos Central Park but
moved to the historical courthouse in
Redwood City about 10 years ago. The
interactive tea component is a rst, Postel
said.
We just wanted to try something differ-
ent, he said.
Victorian Days are noon to 4 p.m. at the
San Mateo County History Museum, 2200
Broadway, Redwood City. All events aside
from the tea are free. The tea is $5 for adults,
$4 for children and will be held in historic
Courtroom A at 1 p.m., 1:45 p.m., 2:30
p.m. and 3:15. RSVP for a session at 299-
0104. The Union Cemetery walking tour is
10 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 17 at Woodside Road
and El Camino Real.

Womans death
investigated as homicide
Awomans body was found at an East
Palo Alto apartment complex Tuesday
morning, and police are investigating
the death as a homicide, a police cap-
tain said.
At about 6 a.m., ofcers went to the
apartment building at 45 Newell Road
after a man in custody in San Mateo
County Jail made spontaneous
remarks to deputies about a possible
crime in one of the units, East Palo
Alto police Capt. Federico Rocha said.
A woman believed to be in her late
40s was found dead inside the resi-
dence, Rocha said.
The suspect, whose name has not
been released, had been arrested for
drunk driving in Redwood City at
around 9:30 p.m. on Monday, Rocha
said.
He remains in custody but has not
been arrested for homicide, Rocha
said.
The San Mateo County Coroners
Ofce remained at the scene as of 9
a.m. yesterday, he said.
The cause of the womans death has
not been determined, Rocha said.
Training offered to draw
supervisorial district maps
San Mateo County is offering resi-
dents training on how to draw their
own supervisorial district maps as part
of implementing the shift from at-
large to district elections.
The maps can be submitted to the
nine-member District Lines Advisory
Committee for consideration along-
side input offered at 10 scheduled com-
munity meetings. Six meetings have
been held so far.
The committee is charged with
redrawing the district lines, a require-
ment after voters in November 2012
changed the county charter governing
elections. Now only voters residing
within a specic district can elect a
supervisor from that same district.
Previously, voters countywide elected
all ve supervisors although each one
resided in an individual district.
The map training is 6 p.m. to 7:30
p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 27 at JobTrain in
Menlo Park. To register for the free
training and learn more information
on the redistricting visit www.smcdis-
trictcommittee.org.

OAKLAND Awomans body found
near a Northern California park last
week is that of a missing federal inves-
tigator, authorities said Tuesday.
The Alameda County Coroners ofce
has identied the body as 50-year-old
Sandra Coke of Oakland, who had been
missing since Aug. 4, Oakland police
spokeswoman Ofcer Johnna Watson
said during a brief news conference with
reporters.
Watson would not discuss Cokes
cause of death.
Coke worked as a capital case investi-
gator for the federal public defenders
ofce in Sacramento since 2009. She
was assigned to probe capital cases that
were appealed to federal court to ensure
death sentences were fair.
In a statement Tuesday, Cokes family
described her as a shining light and
big-hearted per-
son whose gener-
ous hugs will be
missed.
She passionately
devoted her profes-
sional life to help-
ing the poor and
those who endured
difficult child-
hoods, the state-
ment said. All of us will miss Sandras
beautiful, giving spirit.
Cokes federal court colleagues also
praised her. Alex Kozinski, chief judge
of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of
Appeals, said in a statement Tuesday
that Coke was an admired and respected
professional working in a highly chal-
lenging area of the law who performed
her duties with fairness and integrity.
She will be greatly missed, the
judge said. Our hearts go out to her
family.
Cokes former boyfriend Randy Alana
of Oakland remains a person of interest
in her disappearance, Watson said
Tuesday. Alana, 56, and Coke were seen
together on the day she disappeared,
police said.
Alana, a registered sex offender, was
arrested Aug. 6 on an unspecied parole
violation.
A family friend, Laura Burstein, said
Coke dated Alana more than 20 years
ago. Another friend, Dan Abrahamson,
said Alana recently reappeared in the
area and reached out to Coke for help.
Alana was being held in the Santa
Rita Jail without bail. He is considered
a high-risk sex offender, with state
records showing he has convictions for
rape and kidnapping. It wasnt immedi-
ately clear if he had an attorney.
Search and rescue crews found Cokes
body Friday afternoon in a woodsy area
near Lagoon Valley Park in unincorpo-
rated Vacaville.

S.F. police nab $1.5M worth of ecstasy in big bust
San Francisco police say they have made one of the
biggest drug busts in the departments history after discov-
ering a huge amount of ecstasy.
Chief Greg Suhr said Tuesday that ofcers seized more
than 23 kilograms of MDMApowder and more than 30,000
pills Sunday with an estimated street value of about $1.5
million.
Two men, Benjamin Hagerl and Steven Terrell, both of
San Francisco, were taken into custody after officers
responding to a burglary call spotted a trail of blood that led
them to an apartment where they found the drugs and
$30,000 in cash.
Police say one of the men cut his hands breaking a win-
dow to enter the building.
Police are investigating whether the drugs were meant to
be sold at last weekends Outside Lands music festival.
Tractor kills woman at San Jose City College
Ofcials say a woman was hit by a tractor and killed at a
construction site on the campus of San Jose City College.
School ofcials say the woman was hit when the backhoe
tractor backed into a walkway at about 11:15 a.m. Tuesday
between the colleges ne arts and vocational arts build-
ings. The woman was declared dead at a hospital.
San Jose Evergreen Community College Chancellor Rita
Cepeda expressed sympathies to the victims family at a
news conference, but ofcials would not say whether the
woman was a student, visitor or employee of the school or
construction company.
Classes are not in session at the school, which is between
its summer and fall semesters.
The California Division of Occupational Safety and
Health or Cal-OSHA is handling the investigation.
Actresses urge support for paparazzi bill
SACRAMENTO Actresses Halle Berry and Jennifer
Garner are urging California lawmakers to support legisla-
tion that would impose tougher penalties on paparazzi who
harass celebrities and their children.
The stars testied Tuesday before the Assembly Judiciary
Committee on SB606. The bill would change the denition
of harassment to include photographing a child without the
permission of a legal guardian.
It was Berrys second state Capitol appearance on the
measure. Berry, who is pregnant, told lawmakers the con-
stant presence of photographers has made her daughter
scared to go to school.

SAN FRANCISCO Plans to open
the new eastern span of the San
Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge as sched-
uled on Labor Day got a boost when fed-
eral ofcials signed off on a temporary
x for cracked seismic safety bolts that
have threatened to delay the opening by
months.
In a letter, the Federal Highway
Administration said it was impressed
with the level of expertise used to come
up with the temporary x and saw no
reason to delay opening the bridge to
trafc before long-term repairs are n-
ished. The letter, signed by FHA
Division Administrator Vincent
Mammano, is dated Aug. 9 and is
addressed to Steve Heminger, head of the
Toll Bridge Program Oversight
Committee.
Were happy to hear this, said
Randy Rentschler, a spokesman for the
Metropolitan Transportation
Commission, one of the three agencies
that would have to sign off on the tem-
porary x. This is meaningful new
information, and it will be duly consid-
ered.
Rentschler said he was not sure
when a final decision will be made.
The MTC, California Department of
Transportation and California
Transportation Commission were
scheduled to discuss the federal
findings on Tuesday.
The temporary x involves installing
steel plates in the area of the broken
bolts to help prevent movement during
an earthquake. It would be in place while
long-term repairs occurred. Those
repairs involve the installation of a
steel saddle that would replace the
clinching function of the failed bolts.

A former masseur at the Peninsula
Jewish Community Center pleaded no
contest to felony sexual battery for
touching a female client inappropri-
ately and forcing her to perform a sex-
ual act.
In return for Victor James Petush,
27, changing his plea, prosecutors
dropped other charges of misdemeanor
sexual battery, false imprisonment and
forcible digital penetration with a for-
eign object. He returns to court Oct. 30
for sentencing and faces up to a year in
jail and registration as a sex offender.
If convicted by a
jury, he faced up to
eight years in
prison on the pene-
tration charge
alone.
Petush was
employed by the
Foster City-based
PJJCs service part-
ner, Club One, and
is no longer working there, according
to the center.
On Feb. 10, a woman who had
received many massages previously at
the center but not from him, reported
Petush began the session with several
remarks about her great body and, dur-
ing the massage, touched her inappro-
priately, assaulted her with his hand
and made her masturbate him before
she could leave.
The woman contacted police who
arrested Petush. Petush reportedly
claimed all contact with the woman
was consensual.
Prosecutors say Petush has commit-
ted similar offenses on other people
but that those fall outside the statute of
limitations.
Petush is free from custody on a
$100,000 bail bond.
Defense attorney Josh Bentley did
not return a call for comment.

Air Force nuclear unit
fails key security test
WASHINGTON An Air Force unit that
operates one-third of the nations land-
based nuclear missiles has failed a safety and
security inspection, marking the second
major setback this year for a force charged
with the militarys most sensitive mission,
the general in charge of the nuclear air force
told the Associated Press on Tuesday.
Lt. Gen. James M. Kowalski, commander
of Air Force Global Strike Command, said a
team of relatively low-ranking airmen
failed one exercise as part of a broader
inspection, which began last week and
ended Tuesday. He said that for security rea-
sons he could not be specic about the team
or the exercise.
This unit fumbled on this exercise,
Kowalski said by telephone from his head-
quarters at Barksdale Air Force Base, La.,
adding that this did not call into question
the safety or control of nuclear weapons at
Malmstrom Air Force Base in Montana.
The team did not demonstrate the right
procedures, he said, and as a result was rated
a failure.

LONDON The recession thats gripped
the eurozone since late 2011 is likely over.
On Wednesday ofcial gures are expected
to show that economic growth among the
17 countries that use the euro inched up 0.2
percent in the April-June quarter compared
with the previous quarter.
The increase is slight. But it would end
six straight quarters of a debilitating reces-
sion the longest to afict the single-cur-
rency bloc since its creation in 1999.
And it would represent an encouraging
sign for other economies, including the
United States, the worlds largest, because
the eurozone is the worlds biggest trading
bloc. The eurozones recession held back
growth in the United States, Japan and else-
where as European consumers and business-
es spent less on goods from those nations.
Concerns about the eurozone were caus-
ing a lot of companies to put investment on
hold, said David Owen, chief European
economist at Jefferies International.
The eurozones recession was a byproduct
of the debt crisis that engulfed the currency
union in 2010. The crisis forced debt-laden
governments to impose painful cuts,
spooked investors and raised doubts about
the viability of the eurozone. Shrunken
government spending and higher taxes dev-
astated living standards in much of the euro-
zone, slowed economies and drove the
blocs unemployment rate to a record 12.1
percent.
The austerity programs embraced by the
most troubled eurozone countries contrast
with more expansionary efforts in the
United States. The Federal Reserve has also
been more active than the European Central
Bank in helping the economy. It drove bor-
rowing rates to record lows once the nan-
cial crisis erupted in 2008. Ultra-low U.S.
rates helped boost stock prices and home
sales. U.S. unemployment has dropped to
7.4 percent from 10 percent in late 2009
despite a subpar economic recovery.
In recent months, the picture has bright-
ened in Europe as well as governments have
shifted their focus away from debt reduc-
tion. Industrial production is rising.
Consumer spending has stabilized. Exports
have increased as key trade partners, includ-
ing the United States and Japan, strength-
en.
Condence has also recovered as stock
and bond markets have rallied. Thats partly
due to the European Central Banks pledge a
year ago to do whatever it takes to save
the currency union and its decision to cut its
main interest rate to a record low of 0.5 per-
cent.
In Spain and Italy, for example, govern-
ment borrowing rates have sunk in the past
year, a sign of investor confidence.
Analysts expect Wednesdays figures to
show improvement in both countries,
though both are likely to have remained in
recession.
Investors have bid up stock prices in key
eurozone countries this year. Stock indexes
in two major economies France and
Spain have reached 52-week highs.
Frances CAC 40 stock index has jumped 12
percent this year and Spains IBEX 7 per-
cent. Germanys DAX index is up nearly 10
percent this year and Italys FTSE MIB near-
ly 7 percent.

SACRAMENTO Public pension
reforms pushed by Gov. Jerry Brown could
cost the state billions of dollars intended for
transit projects, according to the federal
government.
The U.S. Department of Labor sent a letter
to the Democratic governor this month
warning that Californias efforts to limit
state and local government pensions appear
to violate a federal mass transit grant regu-
lation, The Sacramento Bee reported
Tuesday. The regulation requires that trans-
portation agencies protect employees col-
lective bargaining rights.
Decisions by the labor department later
this week could begin
stalling $1.6 billion in
federal money this year
alone. Ultimately, more
than 100 federal grants
could be halted unless the
problem is resolved.
California Labor
Secretary Marty
Morgenstern argued in a
letter to the federal gov-
ernment in February that the pension
reforms that took effect Jan. 1 do not affect
collective bargaining agreements. He said
the law simply modies retirement plans
that can be offered to government employ-
ees.

WASHINGTON Florida
Republican Sen. Marco Rubio
warned Tuesday that if Congress
doesnt pass immigration over-
haul legislation, President
Barack Obama may act on his
own to legalize the 11 million
immigrants already in the U.S.
illegally.
Rubio, a potential presidential
candidate and an author of the
sweeping immigration bill that
passed the Senate in June but
stalled in the House, noted that
the Obama administration took
action a year ago to give legal
status to many immigrants
brought here illegally as chil-
dren. He said without congres-
sional action, the president
might well be tempted to do the
same for everyone else here ille-
gally, too.
I believe
that this presi-
dent will be
tempted, if
nothing hap-
pens in
Congress, he
will be tempted
to issue an
executive order
like he did for
the DREAM Act kids a year ago
where he basically legalizes 11
million people by the sign of a
pen, Rubio said on The
Morning Show with Preston
Scott on Tallahassee radio sta-
tion WFLA.
Rubio said the possibility
highlighted the need for congres-
sional action because the alterna-
tive would be legalization with-
out benefits like border security
and an E-Verify system to require
employers to check their work-
ers legal status.

WASHINGTON About half
the people who now buy their own
health insurance and potential-
ly would face higher premiums
next year under President Barack
Obamas health care law would
qualify for federal tax credits to
offset rate shock, according to a
new private study.
Many other people, however,
earn too much money to be eligi-
ble for help, and could end up pay-
ing more.
The estimate, being released
Wednesday by the nonpartisan
Kaiser Family Foundation, tries
to answer one of the biggest
remaining questions about the
impact of Obamas law on
American families: Will con-
sumers wince or even balk
when they see the premiums for
the new plans?
The study found that 48 percent
of families currently buying their
own coverage would be eligible
for tax credits next year, averag-
ing $5,548 per family, or 66 per-
cent of the average cost of a
benchmark silver policy offered
through new state insurance mar-
kets.
About half of the people wont
be paying the sticker price, said
Gary Claxton, director of the
health care marketplace project at
Kaiser, an information clearing-
house on the health care system.
The people who get help will get
quite a lot of help.

win New Jersey special
U.S. Senate primaries
By Angela Delli
and Geoff Mulvihill
TRENTON, N.J. Arising star in
the Democratic Party and a
Republican former mayor won their
parties primaries on Tuesday to set
up a campaign of political and sty-
listic contrasts as they seek to l l
the nal 15 months of the term of
the late U.S. Sen. Frank Lautenberg.
Newark Mayor Cory Booker
defeated three experienced politi-
cians U.S. Reps. Rush Holt and
Frank Pallone and state Assembly
Speaker Sheila Oliver in a
Democratic primary that may have
been more competitive had the eld
been less crowded. The race was a
major draw for them partly because
of New Jerseys history of electing
only Democrats to the Senate over
the past 40 years.
In the Republican primary, former
Bogota mayor Steve Lonegan won
handily over Franklin Township
physician Alieta Eck, who had
never run for ofce before.
With about 60 percent of
precincts reporting late Tuesday,
Booker had about 75 percent of the
vote in the Democratic contest,
with Pallone, who had the support
of Lautenbergs family, a distant
second.

Brazil demands clarifications on NSA surveillance
BRASILIA Brazil demanded answers Tuesday from the
U.S. about National Security Agency spying in the country
and warned that trust between the two
nations would be damaged if U.S. expla-
nations about the program were not satis-
factory.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, who
was visiting Brasilia, sought to allay
Brazils concerns about the program,
saying the U.S. would work to provide
answers to Brazil and other Latin
American nations rankled by the NSA
surveillance revealed by systems analyst
Edward Snowden.
Were now facing a new type of challenge in our bilater-
al relationship, Brazil Foreign Minister Antonio Patriota
said at a news conference. The challenge is related to news
about the interception of Brazilian electronic and telephone
communications. And if those challenges are not resolved
in a satisfactory way, we run the risk of casting a shadow of
distrust over our work.
Egypts rival sides upset with new governors
CAIRO Egyptian revolutionary and Islamist groups

comeback.
The two sides are bitter rivals, but voiced similar condem-
nations over the appointments, which saw a total of 12 mil-
itary and police officials secure posts in Egypts 27
provinces. Many of these ofcials and others served in key
posts during Mubaraks three decades in power.

JERUSALEM Israel released 26
Palestinian inmates, including many
convicted in grisly killings, on the
eve of long-stalled Mideast peace
talks, angering families of those slain
by the prisoners, who were welcomed
as heroes in the West Bank and Gaza.
Buses carrying the inmates departed
the Ayalon prison in central Israel late
Tuesday, a nighttime release that was
aimed at preventing the spectacle of
prisoners flashing victory signs as
has happened in the past. Relatives of
the victims, many with their hands
painted red to symbolize what they
say is the blood on the hands of the
inmates, held protests throughout the
day, and some protesters tried briey
to block the buses from leaving.
The decision to release the men
stirred anguish in Israel, where many
Israelis view them as terrorists. Most
of the prisoners were convicted of
killings, including Israeli civilians,
soldiers and suspected Palestinian col-
laborators, while others were
involved in attempted murder or kid-
napping.
Celebrations erupted in the West
Bank and Gaza Strip, where thousands
of Palestinian well-wishers awaited
the buses arrival. Palestinians gener-
ally view the prisoners as heroes
regardless of their acts, arguing they
made personal sacrices in the strug-
gle for independence.
Fireworks lit the sky in Gaza, where
rival Hamas and Fatah supporters,
including several masked gunmen,
celebrated to the beat of drums. Some
danced while others flashed victory
signs and waved flags of the
Palestinian factions. Cars with loud-
speakers blasted nationalistic songs.
Today is a day of joy and happi-
ness. I cant wait until I hug my
beloved son, said Aicha Abu Setta,
the 68-year-old mother of freed pris-
oner Alla Abu Setta.
I am so excited that he will be free
and he will spend his first night
among us after more than 20 years,
she said, clutching a picture of her 43-
year-old son, who was arrested in
1994, charged, along with his cousin,
of killing a soldier.

BEIJING China, one of the most
visited countries in the world, has
seen sharply fewer tourists this year
with worsening air pollution part-
ly to blame.
Numbers of foreign visitors have
declined following Januarys
Airpocalypse, when already eye-
searing levels of smog soared to new
hi ghs.
Tourists have been put off by news
about smog and other problems, said
Frano Ilic of travel agency Studiosus
in Munich, Germany. He said the
number of people booking trips to
China through his company has fall-
en 16 percent this year.
You are reading about smog. You
are reading about political things,
said Ilic. All the news which is com-
ing from China concerning the non-
touristic things are bad, frankly
speaking,
China is the worlds No. 3 destina-
tion for international travel after
France and the United States.
Weakness in visitor numbers could
hurt government efforts to reduce
reliance on trade-driven manufactur-
ing by promoting cleaner service
industries such as tourism. Foreign
visitors are outnumbered by Chinese
tourists but spend more.
The decline could be long-term if
Beijing fails to make visible
progress in combatting pollution,
experts say.
That Chinas air and water are badly
polluted following three decades of
breakneck growth is not news. But
Januarys record-setting bout of
smog got worldwide news coverage
and was so bad some longtime for-
eign residents left the country.

Registering to vote
Editor,
I dont understand why we want to
automatically give someone the right
to vote just because they have come
of age. It really is not a hard process
to register. As I see it, if someone
really cared enough to want to vote
they would do what was expected to
register. My opinion is that someone
who is eligible, but isnt registered,
really doesnt care.
That person is not someone I want

Response to The
Lambeth Conference in 1930
Editor,
You recently published a letter by
Ross Foti of Belmont in the May 13
edition of the Daily Journal regarding
abortion and the availability of con-
traception to young adults. In his let-
ter, he falsely cites that abortions
cause breast cancer and other cancers,
a common scare tactic used to deter
women from their right to a safe abor-
tion. (Abortions, when done by a
licensed medical practitioner, are
actually a safer procedure than giving
birth).
He also says that getting abortions
will increase sexually transmitted
diseases, which makes no sense
whatsoever. Additionally, providing
free, reliable birth control could pre-
vent up to 71 percent of abortions in
the United States. Furthermore, there
is no proof that increased availabili-
ty of contraception will lower the
age at which people become sexually
active. I have yet to hear anything
about abortion causing a Social
Security crisis maybe because
abortions arent causing one.
Under the guise of this so-called
crisis, Mr. Foti is spreading misin-
formation that tells people that con-
traception and abortion have nega-
tive consequences. Is he going to say
next that abortions cause wars and
computer shortages? It seems as
though he may have fallen victim to
federally funded abstinence-only sex-
ual education, 84 percent of which
contains false or misleading informa-
tion.
If he really cared about the well-
being of the youth (and wanted to
decrease the amount of abortions),
then he would encourage the use of
contraception, comprehensive sexual
education, gender equality, universal
health care, healthy views of sex and
the right to a safe abortion.

N
ow that BARTworkers and

10 to come to a contract
agreement, we think it would be best
to revisit the requests on both sides

Thank goodness for Gov. Jerry
Brown for requesting the 60-day cool-

Sunday at midnight. The jury is out
whether it was a good idea to push a
possible strike into October or just
pull the Band-Aid now when summer
ridership is down. But the hope is that
the two sides will come to their sens-
es and come up with an agreement.
But really, the ball is in the workers

age for workers and the disclosure last
week that the difference between the
two sides are in the tens of millions.
BARTmanagement is offering about a
10.4 percent salary increase over four
years and asking workers to con-
tribute to their pensions. The workers
have dropped their 23 percent salary
increase over four years to 15 percent
over three years (not that much of a
difference, really). BARTworkers pay
a at $92 a month for health insur-
ance that covers their entire family
and that will likely remain the same.
In addition, BARTworkers can call in
sick one day, then work an off day for
overtime pay. They also get paid
about $70,000 a year with about
$10,000 more in overtime every year.
Not bad.
But at least the workers have
dropped their request. Its a start. Will
that number drop further? Workers
contend they provide a valuable serv-
ice in a very expensive place to live.
But the people who use BARTalso
live in a very expensive place. If the
workers do not bend, is it right to ask
the people to use the service to pay
more for an already expensive com-
mute? At what point does it become
cheaper to drive a car? We have been
encouraged to use public transit. If
that service is not reliable, then how
effective can that encouragement be?
There has been some discussion
about limiting the ability of such
workers to strike, and that is an idea
worth pursuing. However, unions
have quite a hold on local politicians
and we doubt any legislation to this
effect will be authored.
So until Oct. 10, we can only hope
that workers budge in their demands.
Being hopeful, however, is some-
times not the most comforting feel-
ing.
Two-month reality check
A long way to go?
F
or a very long time, America has ignored a
priority that should be one of its biggest:
making sure its people can eat well, not just
through the agriculture it practices but through the wages
it pays, the work and education it provides, and the rules it
keeps. Tracie McMillan, The American Way of
Eating.
On Aug. 7, news came out
that, according to the
Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention, the rate of
childhood obesity has fall-
en, declined or
dropped, depending upon
which newspaper you read.
From a couple of them you
rst get the idea that a dra-
matic change has taken
place in childhood obesity.
The lead line of the article
in this newspaper was the
most realistic. CDC
First national sign of childrens obesity drop.
Quoting from the newspapers I read, it turns out that in
18 states, there were at least slight drops in obesity for
low-income preschoolers ... most ages 2 to 4 who were
enrolled in the Federal Women, Infants, and Children
(WIC) program which provides food vouchers and other
services. ... It is reported that one in eight preschoolers
in the United States is obese and its even more common
in black and Hispanic kids.
This is all about a drop in obesity numbers among these
kids by maybe 1 percentage point. As one advocate
remarked, It means that theres some progress, but
theres still a lot of work we need to do. So to what may
this decline among some 2- to 4-year-olds be attributed? It
may be possible that some of these children are being fed
a healthier diet like not being given sodas and high fat
and sugar foods but that possibility is slim. It could
even be because of increasing poor health among the
group studied. It could also be that, because of the reces-
sion, many families are having a more difcult time pro-
viding adequate food for their children.
This brings to mind the Bill Moyers report on PBS of
June 30 that emphasized how so many low-income fami-
lies are having a very difcult time feeding their children
during the recession. Some had had decent jobs but when
they got laid off couldnt nd anything but part-time work
or jobs that paid very little and/or had no benets. Kristi
Jacobsons movie, APlace at the Table was featured. We
were informed that each day one in six Americans go hun-
gry and one in ve kids live in families that are food inse-
cure.
The unfortunate fact is that nothing much will happen
to alleviate the obesity problem of our preschoolers (or
anyone else) at least until:
1). There is comprehensive, required nutrition education
in all schools and much information about eating health-
fully is broadcast far and wide;
2. Ahalf-gallon of milk is as cheap as a liter of Coke;
3). Our food industry becomes as interested in the health
of our children (and all of us) as in enhancing the bottom
line;
4). The lower income people earn enough to buy better
food like fresh fruit and vegetables;
5). There is someone in most homes who has learned
about good nutrition, who takes the familys nutritional
health seriously and shops for and prepares healthy food
for the family. In our nations switch from natural to
processed foods, were still getting the fat, calories and
carbohydrates, but were not getting the nutritional build-
ing blocks we need. Robyn OBrien, The Unhealthy
Truth;
6). Fast-food establishments go out of business because
of lack of interest in their products. (Fat Chance!);
7). All of the chemicals in our food and environment,
etc. are tested for safety and their possible effect on chil-
drens health and potential to contribute to weight gain;
8). All mothers are t and healthy when they become
pregnant. As Gary Taubes wrote in Why We Get Fat
about possible future problems of our children with
insulin resistance: We have more than our own health to
consider when we get fat. Our children, too, may pay a
price, and their children. And each succeeding generation
may nd that is much harder to undo the problem;
9). Children are not allowed to spend so many hours in
front of the television or mesmerized by other electronic
devices; and
10). Aerobic physical education classes are a daily
activity in all schools.
The CDC, etc. may get excited by reports of a 1 percent
decline in obesity of 2- to 4-year-olds of low-income fam-
ilies in a few states, but it seems that this is an innitesi-
mal change that is hardly worth the front page of any
newspaper. There is, indeed, a LONG way to go.

Editorial
I
ts not often that a San Mateo
County team catches such wide-
spread interest, but the
Belmont-Redwood Shores All-Stars
11-12 Little League team did just that
in its recent run at the Western
Regional title.
Though the team fell short in its
quest to make it to the Little League
World Series in South Williamsport,
Penn., its run was nothing short of
spectacular. Put it this way, the team
was one of the last two teams in this
entire area of the country vying for a
spot in the Little League World Series
which features eight national teams
and eight international teams. This
summer, the team went 17-2 with
some fairly solid victories. On
Saturday, they were simply out-
matched by Chula Vista, though it had
defeated the squad previously. If the
game was played on a different day,
there very well could have been a dif-
ferent result. But it wasnt and it did-
nt so instead of taking a trip back
East, the team is heading back home.
It is here back home where many of
us jumped on the bandwagon of their
success and followed their victories
and well-executed play either at home
or in large gatherings at Carlmont
High School watching an Internet
feed, a Skype feed or the nal on
ESPN.
The entire run was a heck of a lot of
fun and team denitely did their part
to put both Belmont and Redwood
Shores on the map while raising the
local passion for youth baseball and
all of our collective spirits.
Three cheers for Belmont-Redwood Shores

Big movers

NEWYORK Major stock indexes
eked out small gains Tuesday after an
upturn in technology companies out-
weighed weakness in other parts of the
market, including a drop in airlines.
The gain in technology stocks was
driven by Apple. The technology com-
pany surged after billionaire investor
Carl Icahn said on Twitter that he held a
large position in Apple and that its
stock was undervalued.
August is shaping up to be a lacklus-
ter month for the stock market as major
indexes fail to add signicantly to the
gains they made in July. The Standard
& Poors 500 index has drifted lower,
uctuating between small losses and
gains, since closing at an all-time high
Aug. 2.
A sharp rise in Treasury yields also
rippled through the stock market on
Tuesday.
The yield on the 10-year note
climbed to 2.72 percent, close to its
highest in two years, on the latest
signs that Europe is emerging from its
recession. Industrial production in the
17 countries that use the euro rose in
June and investor condence increased
in Germany, the regions biggest econ-
omy.
The sharp rise in yields lifted nan-
cial companies because higher interest
rates could help them generate better
profit margins. That helped offset
declines in homebuilders and other
stocks that are sensitive to rising bor-
rowing costs.
The yield is also climbing on specu-
lation that the Federal Reserve will cut
its stimulus as the economy recovers.
Atlanta Fed President Dennis Lockhart
said Tuesday that it was too early to say
when the bank would ease back on its
stimulus, but hinted that it would likely
happen before the end of the year.
You could argue that stocks would be
up higher today if the bond market was
behaving, said John Canally, invest-
ment strategist for LPLFinancial. The
markets trend right now is higher.
Homebuilder stocks slid on concern
that mortgage rates will climb, raising
the cost of buying a home and potential-
ly blunting a recovery in the housing
market. The stocks of phone companies
and utilities that typically pay big divi-
dends also fell. Those stocks have been
slumping as Treasury yields have risen,
because some investors had been buying
them as an alternative to bonds as a
source of investment income.
Airline stocks slumped after the fed-
eral government challenged the pro-
posed merger of US Airways and
American Airlines, a deal between two
of the largest carriers. The government
says the deal would result in substan-
tial harm to consumers in higher fares
and fees.
Major indexes started slightly high-
er, drifted lower at mid-morning, and
were back up again in the afternoon.
Trading has been unusually light this
week and last as many investors take
vacation.
The market is drifting and consoli-
dating here, and we think this is likely
(to continue) over the next week or
so, said Jim Russell, a regional
investment director at US Bank.
The S&P500 index rose 4.69 points,
or 0.3 percent, to 1,694.16. Although
its advance has slowed this month, the
index is still up 18.8 percent this year.
The Nasdaq composite rose 14.49
points, or 0.4 percent, to 3,684.44.
The Dow Jones industrial average rose
31.33 points, or 0.2 percent, to
15,451.01.
Other indexes fell. The Dow Jones
Transportation average dropped 42.48,
or 0.7 percent, to 6,452, dragged down
by the slump in airline stocks. Indexes
measuring utilities and small-company
stocks also fell.
In government bond trading, the
yield on the 10-year Treasury note
jumped to 2.72 percent from 2.62 per-
cent Monday. The yield is used as a
benchmark to set interest rates on
many kinds of loans including home
mortgages.
Stock market ekes out small gains
You could argue that stocks would
be up higher today if the bond market was
behaving. ...The markets trend right now is higher.

Federal government
sues to block airline merger
DALLAS American Airlines and US
Airways expected to spend this week cruis-
ing toward completion of their huge merg-
er, a deal to create the worlds biggest air-
line worth $14 billion on paper.
Instead, they were stunned Tuesday when
the federal government and six states sued
to block the deal, saying it would hurt com-
petition and cost consumers hundreds of
millions of dollars a year in higher fares
and extra fees.
Antitrust regulators had done little to
interfere with three other big airline merg-
ers in the past ve years, so they were not
expected to stand in the way of American
and US Airways. But this latest deal would
leave four airlines controlling more than 80
percent of the U.S. air-travel market.
By further reducing the number of legacy
airlines and aligning the economic incen-
tives of those that remain, the merger of US
Airways and American would make it easier
for the remaining airlines to cooperate,
rather than compete, on price and service,
the lawsuit said.
The Justice Department turned the words
of US Airways leaders against them.
Business brief
By Michael Liedtke
SAN FRANCISCO Activist investor
Carl Icahn thinks Apple should be doing
more to revive its stock price, and wants
to help CEO Tim Cook with the resuscita-
tion.
Icahn, an outspoken billionaire renowned
for pouncing on out-of-favor stocks, sig-
naled he has Apple Inc. in his sights in two
short messages posted Tuesday on his
Twitter account. Until now, he had been
deploying Twitter as a weapon in his attack
on Dell Inc.s proposed
sale to a group led by its
CEO, Michael Dell.
The Twitter posts
announced that Icahn had
acquired a large but
unspecified stake in
Apple and that he had just
had a nice conversa-
tion with Cook about
his belief that the maker
of the iPhone and iPad should be using even
more of its $147 billion in cash to buy back
its own stock as soon as possible.
Apple spokesman
Steve Dowling described
Icahns discussion with
Cook as positive, but
declined to elaborate.
We appreciate the inter-
est and investment of all
our shareholders,
Dowling said.
Icahn, 77, probably
has already won some
fans among Apple shareholders. After he
tweeted, Apples market value rose by about
$13 billion.
Apple already has been trying to lift its
stock price under a program it adopted earli-
er this year under pressure from another
activist shareholder, hedge fund manager
David Einhorn.
In April, Apple pledged to spend $60 bil-
lion buying back its stock through the end
of 2015 as a way to return some of its cash
to shareholders. About $18 billion of that
commitment already had been spent
through June 29, according to the compa-
nys regulatory lings. Apple also plans to
dole out more than $10 billion in share-
holder dividends each year.

When Rudy Lopez rst put together the
Little League team that would eventually
advance to the Western Regional tourna-
ment, the core players on the team were 8
years old.
The plan ve years ago, as Lopez said,
was to get better playing baseball but also,
by the time they were 12, to get to San
Bernardino.
Mission accomplished. Despite coming
up short of the Little League World Series,
the Belmont-Redwood Shores All Stars did
something no other Peninsula team had
done. BRS was the rst District 52 team to
win the Northern California championship
and advance to San Bernardino, the home of
the Western Regional tournament since
1971.
We said from the beginning of summer,
we wanted to make history. To do something
no one (on the Peninsula) had ever done
before, Lopez said. We didnt start out
saying we were going to San Bernardino.
As the team grew up over the years, the
wins piled up as well. The majority of play-
ers that comprised the BRS all-star team was
used to winning and success. The only thing

Belmont-Redwood Shores Daylin McLemore legs out an ineld hit in the WesternRegional championship game. It was only one of two hits
for BRS, which lost to Chula Vista 9-0.
SAN FRANCISCO The head of
Americas Cup challenger Emirates
Team New Zealand accused defending
champion Oracle Team USA of
cheating in the latest controversy in
sailings premier regatta.
You cant actually get to any
other point than the fact they were
cheating, Emirates Team New
Zealand managing director Grant
Dalton told the San Francisco
Chronicle on Tuesday. I think its
really serious.
Oracle Racing last week admitted
it modied its boats without permis-
sion of the Measurement Committee
during four regattas in the Americas
Cup World Series, a warm-up to this
years regatta. Those regattas were
sailed in 45-foot catamarans, which
were prototypes of the 72-foot cata-
marans being sailed this summer in
the Louis Vuitton Cup and then the
Americas Cup match.
The international jury is investi-
gating and could punish Oracle with
a ne, forfeiture of races or disquali-
cation from the Americas Cup.
Any punishment would be another
smudge on already troubled regatta.
The best-of-17 Americas Cup
match begins Sept. 7 between
Oracle and the winner of the Louis
Vuitton Cup for challengers.
Emirates Team New Zealand faces
Italys Luna Rossa in the best-of-13
Louis Vuitton Cup nal starting
Saturday.
Oracle and regatta ofcials didnt
immediately respond to requests for
comment.
Oracle Team USA CEO Russell
Coutts admitted last week that some-
one with the syndicate illegally
placed weights in the bows of all
three of its 45-foot catamarans dur-
ing the Americas Cup World Series,
without the knowledge of manage-
ment. One of the boats was loaned
to British Olympic star Ben Ainslie,
who is sailing with Oracle Team
USAthis summer.
Coutts said it was a ridiculous
mistake because the weights did-
nt affect the performance.
Oracle forfeited its victories in
four ACWS regattas and its two over-
all season championships.
The modications appear to be
an intentional effort to circumvent
the limitations of the 45 class rule,
the Americas Cup Measurement
Committee said In a report to regat-
ta director Iain Murray.

The NFL Players Association
tentatively agreed to let the league
take 40 blood samples for HGH
tests each week during the season,
with a positive result drawing a four-
game suspension, according to a
memo the union sent players.
A copy of the NFLPAs email,
written in a question-and-answer
format, was obtained Tuesday by the
Associated Press.
The memo says a computer pro-
gram will randomly select ve
players apiece from eight teams
each week to take the blood tests.
First, though, every player partic-
ipating in NFL training camps this
year will provide a blood sample and
information about height, weight,
age, and race/ethnicity for a popu-
lation study to determine what
level of HGH will result in penal-
ties, the union wrote.
The NFLPAs letter says that if
more than 5 percent of all training
camp samples are above that thresh-
old, players who fail will have rea-
sonable cause testing during the
next two seasons meaning
theyll be subject to additional test-
ing. Aplayer testing positive again
during the 2013-14 or 2014-15 sea-
sons will get an eight-game suspen-
sion. Aplayer without another pos-
itive result in that time will be
removed from the extra testing pro-
gram.
Tuesdays email to players indi-
cates the union has signed off on
various aspects of the HGH program
and says owners and players will
likely nalize soon the in-season
weekly testing. But the memo does
not make clear what exactly the NFL
has agreed to at this point or give
specics about what stands in the
way of a nal accord.
No date has been set for the start
of testing, because there are still
issues that need to be negotiated
between the NFL and union, includ-
ing whether the commissioner or a
neutral arbitrator will handle certain
types of appeals of discipline.

HGH testing coming soon to NFL

SANTA CLARA Hitting and
tackling is not allowed during
team drills for the San Francisco
49ers, so Eric Reid practices prop-
er technique by driving his body
through a makeshift punching bag
with the other defensive backs.
Apparently, Reid still needs to
hit the bag some more.
San Franciscos rst-round pick
made six tackles in an impressive
preseason debut against the
Denver Broncos last Thursday
night, including a pair of high-
light-reel hits. Whether Reid will
be ready to start at free safety
against Aaron Rodgers and the
Green Bay Packers in the regular-
season opener
Sept. 8 is still
unclear.
He showed
progress. He
showed prom-
ise, defensive
coordinator Vic
Fangio said
Tuesday.
Fangio said
hes not sure if Reid will make his
rst start in Fridays exhibition at
Kansas City. For all the potent
potential Reid has displayed so
far, hes still a rookie and prone
to making rookie mistakes so
the 49ers are trying to ease his
transition to the NFL before mak-
ing him the last line of defense.
Reid, the former LSU standout
the 49ers traded up 13 spots in the
draft to take at No. 18, said he felt
positive about his performance
not giving up a big play and, for
the most of part, not missing any
tackles. He said starting has been
his goal since coming to the
49ers, but I try not to look too far
ahead.
I try to look at myself to get
better as a player, he said. When
the coach decides on whos the
starter, whether its me or another
guy, Im going to try to help this
team out any way I can.
While Reid is the kind of big
hitter San Francisco is looking for
to replace All-Pro safety Dashon
Goldson, hes still learning to

LONDON In international soccer, few rivalries are
greater and none is older.
According to former Scotland coach Craig Levein,
Scotland vs. England is the ultimate contest. It really is as
good as it gets.
But so erce is the rancor, that a quarter of a century ago,
facing a losing battle against rampant hooliganism, their
annual matches had to be abandoned.
Now, for the rst time since 1989, the old foes are meeting
again at their choosing despite sporadic fan violence return-
ing to haunt soccer in recent years and presenting security
fears ahead of Wednesdays game.
A heavy police operation is in place across London as
Wembley Stadium prepares to host the 111th meeting
between the cross-border rivals since the rst in 1872.
The English Football Association said a considerable
amount of intelligence-led work has been undertaken with
the police prepared for an inux of fans from north of the
border.
Police Scotland has sent specialized hooligan spotters to
London to work alongside the London force, with ofcers
particularly wary of fans amassing in the capitals main
square and drinking through the day.
We are aware that traditionally Scotland supporters con-
gregate in Trafalgar Square and this will form part of our
policing operation, the Metropolitan Police said in a state-
ment to the Associated Press, describing their plan as
appropriate and proportionate.
It will be a friendly in name, but not necessarily in nature.
There will be lots of banter, England coach Roy
Hodgson said. There will be lots of insults ying across the
way, but it will all be done in a reasonably good spirit.
The only England-Scotland games since 1989 have been
when they met in ofcial competitions, with the neighbors
facing off at the 1996 European Championship in London,
and home and away three years later in a Euro 2000 playoff.
England, Scotland to
resume soccer rivalry
WASHINGTON Adam LaRoche hit a two-run home run in
the sixth inning to help lift the Washington Nationals to a 4-
2 win over the San Francisco Giants on Tuesday.
The Nationals won their fourth game in a row on a night
when neither starting pitcher returned after a thunderstorm
caused a 1:17 rain delay.
Washington starter Gio Gonzalez threw four shutout
innings. Giants ace Madison Bumgarner allowed just one run
on an ineld ground out in his four innings before the rain
hit.
LaRoche sent a 1-0 pitch from San Francisco reliever
Guillermo Moscoso (1-1) off the facing of the second deck
above the Nationals bullpen in right eld. That came after a
leadoff single by Ian Desmond and broke a 1-1 tie.
Tanner Roark (2-0) earned the win with two innings of
relief after the delay. Rafael Soriano got his 30th save of the
season.
The Giants had evened the score after the rain delay ended
because of a Desmond error at shortstop with runners at rst
and third in the fth.
San Francisco scratched second baseman Marco Scutaro
(stiff back), who was originally in the lineup. Joaquin Arias
replaced him and had three singles and a double for a career-
high four hits.
Even with the winning streak, frustrations have mounted
for the Nationals in recent days. Earlier in the 11-game home-
stand, outelder Bryce Harper and manager Davey Johnson
argued in the dugout late in an Aug. 7 loss to Atlanta.
In the rst inning on Tuesday, Gonzalez was late covering
rst base on a elders choice ground out.
After the inning, television cameras caught Washington
outelder Jayson Werth and Gonzalez in a verbal altercation
in the dugout. Gonzalez had to be screened by pitching coach
Steve McCatty as Werth walked away.
Meanwhile, the Nationals kept pressure on Bumgarner
early. Washington stranded Anthony Rendon at second base
in the bottom of the rst after a one-out double. In the third,
Bumgarner struck out Werth with a 92 mph fastball with the
bases loaded and two out.
That good fortune didnt last. Desmond began the fourth
with a double to right-center eld. LaRoche followed with a
single to right. Then Wilson Ramos hit a ball off
Bumgarners right knee. It deected to third baseman Pablo
Sandoval, who threw out Ramos as Desmond scored to put the
Nationals up 1-0.
More struggles for Giants
OAKLAND Jordan Lyles pitched seven innings for his
rst win in nearly two months, Brandon Barnes doubled twice
and drove in two runs, and the Houston Astros beat the
Oakland Athletics 5-4 on Tuesday night to snap a six-game
losing streak.
Juan Castro singled in the fth to extend his hitting streak
to a career-high 11 games, scored a run and added a sacrice y
for Houston. Matt Dominguez added two hits, including one of
four doubles off As starter Bartolo Colon, who lost in his sec-
ond bid to become the rst pitcher in major league history to
win 15 games with four American League teams.
Yoenis Cespedes singled, doubled and homered for Oakland,
which nearly won the game on Chris Youngs long foul ball
that was reviewed, but missed a chance to move percentage
points ahead of Texas in the ALWest.
With a runner on rst base in the ninth, Young hit an 0-1
pitch from Chia-Jen Lo down the right-eld line. The ball
curved just outside the foul pole and third base umpire Doug
Eddings immediately ruled it foul.
After As manager Bob Melvin came out to argue the call, the
four umpires went underneath the stands to review the play
before conrming the original ruling.
The Astros had dropped 11 of the rst 12 games this season
between the division rivals before knocking Colon (14-5) out
of the game early and holding off a late rally.
Colon, who had defeated Houston three times already this
season, gave up ve runs and seven hits in four innings with
one walk and three strikeouts. Oaklands All-Star right-hander
has allowed 10 earned runs over his last two outings while his
ERAhas risen from 2.50 to 2.97.
Lyles (5-6) sailed through his rst career appearance against
the As. He gave up ve hits, allowed only one runner past sec-
ond base and got Oakland to ground into two double plays.
That ended an eight-start winless skid for the Houston right-
hander, who had been 0-5 since his last victory on June 18.
Houstons bullpen made Lyles sweat it out.
Josh Reddick singled in Jed Lowrie in the eighth and
Cespedes followed with a two-out, two-run home run off Josh
Zeid to pull the As within 5-4. After Kevin Chapman replaced
Zeid and hit pinch-hitter Nate Freiman, Lo got Josh
Donaldson to y out to center.
Lo recorded the nal four outs for his rst career save.

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

Funeral Etiquette Advice:
Show Up, Be Brief, Listen

By Nancy Armour
Even with dozens of safety meas-
ures in place, experts say theres no
way to fully protect a ballpark or
arena against falls like the one that
killed a Braves fan at a game in
Atlanta.
Ronald Homer fell 85 feet to his
death Monday night after tumbling
over a fourth-level railing at Turner
Field. Though police said the 30-
year-olds death appeared to be an
accident, it was one of more than
two dozen cases of fans falling at
stadiums since 2003, according to
the Institute for the Study of Sports
Incidents.
Three of the falls occurred within
the last year alone in Atlanta, at
Turner Field and the Georgia Dome.
But that doesnt mean something is
wrong with the Atlanta stadiums,
said Alana Penza, director of the
institute, which is part of the
National Center for Spectator Sports
Safety and Security, based at the
University of Southern
Mississippi.
The reality of it is, Turner Field
has had two major incidents in the
past ve years, Penza said. When
it results in a death, it always makes
you look at change. ... But its also,
in the simplest terms, an accident
often.
Though teams and municipalities
can build stadiums in the design of
their choosing, all must meet strict
safety guidelines. The International
Building Code is the industry stan-
dard, adopted in all 50 states and the
District of Columbia. It calls for
railings in front of seats to be a min-
imum of 26 inches. Protective rail-
ings in open-sided areas, such as
concourses on the outer edges of sta-
diums, have a minimum height
requirement of 42 inches.
Its sad to say someone could
lose their life and not yield some
lesson for the rest of us, but this one
is pretty close based on the initial
reports, said Steve Adelman, an
attorney who is considered an
authority on venue safety and securi-
t y. Its just a tragedy.
An Associated Press reporter on
Tuesday measured the guard rail of
the smoking platform where Homer
stood before he fell, and it was 42
inches. That would reach the top of
the stomach on a 6-foot man. Homer
was 6-foot-6.
Was it adequate? Certainly, said
Adelman, who is based in
Scottsdale, Ariz. The venue has a
legal duty to erect and maintain rail-
ings that are high enough to keep
people reasonably safe, given their
reasonably foreseeable conduct at
the venue. ... Because its not very
common to be standing at a railing
nowhere near the playing eld and,
for some reason, lean over and fall
there is no other instance of it
happening in the last 20 years
the venue doesnt have a legal duty
to create safety mechanisms to pre-
vent something which doesnt hap-
pen.
Most ballparks go beyond the
minimum requirements, Adelman
said. When the Miami Marlins were
building their new ballpark, which
opened in 2012, building inspec-
tors recommended raising the
height of some railings, he said.
People dont understand how
much it takes to get a major league
event off the ground, Adelman said.
These buildings dont go up
overnight. Many, many, many peo-
ple have to sign off on different
aspects of a stadium that will be the
centerpiece and crown jewel of a
municipality. There are city building
inspectors up and down who are
looking at these buildings at every
stage of construction.
There is never a time when rail-
ing heights are lowered, he added.
At Rangers Ballpark in Arlington,
Texas, the guard rails in front of the
left-eld seats were 34 inches, well
above local and international build-
ing requirements. Yet that didnt pre-
vent reghter Shannon Stones
fatal fall in July 2011, when he
reached out to catch a ball tossed his
way by then-Texas outelder Josh
Hamilton. Stones accident was wit-
nessed by his 6-year-old son.
After Stones fall, the Rangers
raised all front-row railings that
were above eld level to at least 42
inches, with some being raised by
more than a foot. (There were
already 42-inch rails at the base of
steps leading to rst-row seats, and
all along the second deck of seats
high above right eld in an area
known as the Home Run Porch.) The
new raised railings in the $1.1 mil-
lion project included beveled tops
and leaned slightly inward, making
it safer for fans in front-row seats
throughout the stadium.
We take it seriously, Rangers
general manager Jon Daniels said
Tuesday. Weve had outside people
come in and evaluate it. Obviously,
we raised the railings and have done
a lot to make people aware, both our
employees, and our fans, but
(Homers death) thats tough. ...
Thats tough to hear.
Even with guard rails, netting,
enclosed walkways and any number
of other safety measures, Adelman
said the best protection for fans will
always be common sense.
Steven Davidson, who was taking
in a Yankees game Tuesday with his
13-year-old son, agreed.
You wouldnt lean too far over
the Grand Canyon or over Niagara
Falls, he said. So why do it at a
sporting event?
Despite safety measures, stadium falls occur

strike a balance with his aggressiveness.
Reid made a jarring hit on Broncos tight
end Virgil Green in the second quarter, but
he arrived too late, allowing Green to make
the catch for 13 yards and a rst down. The
rookies most memorable played came in
the third quarter, when Reid raced in from his
free safety spot to knock Kemonte Bateman
off his feet.
The hard hit whipped teammates into a
frenzy on the sideline. But again, the play
went for 16 yards and another rst down.
The concern from coaches is that such
hits could come so late they could draw
penalties. Those ball-hawking skills take
time to hone in the NFL, where plays devel-
op at lightning-quick speeds.
We love the big hit and coach it and try
and get it at any time. Hes just got to be
smart and know not to hit after the whistle,
know not to hit a guy in the head, a defense-
less receiver, Fangio said. He didnt really
have any of those plays the other day. Were
going to be as aggressive as we can and as
physical as we can within the rules.
Veteran strong safety Donte Whitner has
been helping Reid adjust. He believes the
rookie has all the natural ability and intelli-
gence to become an NFL starter.
Its going to take a little experience,
Whitner said. Hes going to take some
lumps. Hell have to give up some passes
and understand where hes supposed to be.
But, hopefully, he comes along really fast.
Hes making plays on the football.
The competition to replace Goldson
who signed a free agent deal with the Tampa
Bay Buccaneers this offseason has been
among the closest in camp. C.J. Spillman,
Trenton Robinson and Craig Dahl all have
spent time starting in practice, though Reid
has started to emerge as a real possibility to
start in Week 1.
Dahl played the opening minutes against
Denver, but Reid got the majority of play-
ing time, albeit against mostly second-
stringers. That progress has slowed since
because Reid sat out practices Saturday and
Sunday with a stiff back, which he saw a chi-
ropractor for Monday to get back on the
eld.
I didnt know my spine could pop that
much, Reid quipped.
The 6-foot-1, 213-pound Reid said com-
prehending the more advanced schemes in
the NFL remains his toughest task. Hes
also adjusting to a 3-4 scheme after playing
a 4-3 alignment in college, and while the
concepts are the same for a safety, he said
his responsibilities can change often
after the ball is snapped.
Reid said his timing will improve he
just needs to keep learning and be patient.
A coach told me a long time ago, Reid
said, You dont necessarily look for the
big hit. It will come to you.
NOTES: Fangio said he doesnt expect
his two injured rookie defensive linemen,
second-round pick Tank Carradine (knee)
and fth-round pick Quinton Dial (toe), to
return to practice anytime soon. He also
said its possible both will be on the non-
football injury list to start the season. ...
Former British Olympic discus thrower
Lawrence Okoye, a 6-foot-6, 304-pounder
trying to make the transition to defensive
lineman, played six snaps in the preseason
opener. The 49ers are being patient with
Okoye but hoping to give him more play-
ing time in upcoming exhibitions. He is
making slight improvements, Fangio
said. And, in his case, slight is big.

49ERS
By Josh Dubow
NAPA Rashad Jennings takes every
precaution he can to keep his body in top
shape necessary for an NFL running back.
He eats a gluten-free diet and sticks to
organic foods. He stretches every night and
has a regular routine of pilates, acupuncture,
yoga and massage.
And when Jennings long days of training
camp are over instead of settling into a soft
bed, he climbs into a hyperbaric oxygen
chamber to sleep.
Jennings bought the oxygen chamber as a
rookie instead of splurging for a car, think-
ing it would help keep him fresh and pro-
long his career.
He admits it freaks some people out at
rst and the loud noise forced him into a
single room in what he calls the dungeon
of the team hotel in training camp.
But Jennings is working on getting some
converts, saying he has at least six team-
mates waiting to try out
the chamber next week to
see how they like it.
Its not an end all be
all, Jennings said. Its
not like this is the
biggest healer in the
world type of thing, but it
does heal you on a certain
level. It speeds up the
process. I love to prac-
tice and I love to stay on
the eld. It keeps you healthy. Playing this
game is important to me. The way I eat and
take care of my body is pretty important.
The Oakland Raiders are counting on a
healthy Jennings this season as the backup
to Darren McFadden, who has never made it
through an NFL season without an injury.
Playing the role of a backup to a big-play
back is something Jennings has plenty
experience doing, having served in that
role behind Maurice Jones-Drew in
Jacksonville to start his career.
I tell people all the time there arent any
backups in this league, Jennings said.
The backups are at home. You got to pre-
pare as the starter, you are the starter.
Its too late to prepare when the opportu-
nity presents itself. Im a piece of a puzzle.
When Im called upon I have to make sure
Im making my statement.
Jennings did a good job of that in the pre-
season opener when he ran nine times for
39 yards.
He got loose for a 16-yard run on a read-
option play with quarterback Terrelle Pryor
and showed the ability to grind for tough
yards in short yardage the Raiders are look-
ing for in McFaddens backup.
Jennings is working his way back from
two disappointing seasons in Jacksonville.
After averaging more than 5 yards a carry
in each of his rst two seasons, Jennings
missed all of 2011 with a knee injury.
He then struggled mightily last season,
averaging 2.8 yards per carry becoming
the 10th back to average under 3 yards a run
with at least 100 carries since 2000.
It was a lot of things, looking at lm, I
couldve done better, but its all in the past
whatever happened, it is in the past, he
said. Its a fresh start as a Raider and thats
what Im out here to capitalize on.
Jennings entered camp in a competition
with fth-round pick Latavius Murray to be
McFaddens backup and seems in position
to get that job because of his experience and
reliability.
Murray showed some good signs in the
preseason opener as well with eight carries
for 29 yards but has also missed time
throughout camp with injuries to the dis-
may of coach Dennis Allen.
Being available and being accountable
are two things that we have to make sure
were able to be, Allen said.
NOTES: LT Jared Veldheer had a second
MRI on his injured triceps and missed prac-
tice. ... LB Nick Roach left practice with an
undisclosed injury and DE Lamarr Houston
returned to the eld.
Jennings counted on to back up McFadden

left to do was make good on the plan of getting to San
Bernardino.
When Belmont-Redwood Shores got to Southern
California, it proved it belonged. In winning the ve games
leading up to the title game, BRS outscored its opponents
35-6.
Leadoff hitter Noah Marcelo was the spark plug for BRS.
He went into the championship game with a .533 batting
average, going 8 for 15 through the rst ve games with a
pair of home runs and two doubles, six runs scored and four
RBIs.
The top ve spots of the batting order Marcelo,
Nicolas Lopez, Brad Shimabuku, Dominic Susa and Sean Lee
combined to go 27 for 70, good for a .386 batting aver-
age.
As a team, the 13-member squad batted .357.
On the mound, BRS was just as formidable. Lee and
Nicolas Lopez were virtually unhittable early. Lee started
the rst game of the tournament for BRS against the Arizona
champion and spun a two-hit, 14-strikeout masterpiece.
Nicolas Lopez followed with a similar performance against
Hawaii in pool play, throwing a three-hit shutout. Lopez
came back to start the seminal game against Arizona with
similar results one run on four hits and nine strikeouts in
6 2/3 innings of work.
BRS most impressive pitching performance, however,
came during a 3-2 win over Southern California champ
Chula Vista in pool play. Four pitchers combined to limit
Chula Vista to just two runs on three hits it was one of
two games in which Chula Vista did not reach double gures
in runs scored, with BRS accomplishing the feat both
times.
Ryan Anderson picked up the win in that game, pitching
two innings of scoreless relief, striking out four. Lee earned
the save with a dominant two-inning performance in which
he struck out the nal six Chula Vista batters.
As a whole, the BRS pitching staff posted an ERAof 2.00
through ve games of pool play and the seminal.
Internally, among ourselves, we only ever really focused
on the next game, Rudy Lopez said. I remember worrying
about the rst district game. Worrying we wouldnt get past
that rst game. We made sure we didnt take anyone for
granted.
Its funny how one bad game can screw up your numbers,
however. In the championship game, nothing went right
for Belmont-Redwood Shores against Chula Vista. It man-
aged just two hits in 21 at-bats and, unlike the rst meeting,
Chula Vista solved BRS pitching, tagging Lee with six runs
on nine hits and adding three more runs on three more hits
against reliever Brad Shimabuku.
While the loss put a brief damper on BRS run, a look at
the numbers suggests it really could not have asked for a
better summer: Belmont-Redwood Shores finished the
Western Regional tournament with a .309 team batting
average and a 2.35 team ERA. It combined to go 17-2 in all-
star play, outscoring its opponents 167-47. It went 5-0 in
winning the District 52 championship, 3-0 in capturing the
Section 3 title, 4-1 in winning the Northern California
crown and 5-1 in San Bernardino.
And to come up one win short of qualifying for the Little
League World Series? Well, only eight teams from around
the country made it to Williamsport. To even be in a region-
al nal put BRS in elite company.
More than anything, it was a bunch of kids who worked
hard summer after summer and achieved something no other
team had been able to achieve on the Peninsula, ever, Rudy
Lopez said. They played not just the Little League season,
they played travel ball, they played (together) in the fall.
They would hit every Friday night, giving up dances, giv-
ing up their friends. Its just a testament to hard work.
This is what we were planning on doing. This was the
nal step of our plan from ve years ago.

McCarthy declined to comment on any specics in the NFLPA
memo, writing in an email to the AP: We do not have yet a
comprehensive agreement for HGH testing.
The league and the union originally paved the way for test-
ing in the 10-year collective bargaining agreement they
signed in August 2011, but two complete NFL seasons have
come and gone and a third is right around the corner with-
out a single HGH test being administered on a player.
During the two years since, the sides have haggled over var-
ious elements, including details of the appeals process and the
unions insistence on a population study to determine what is
a naturally occurring amount of HGH in NFLplayers.
HGH is a banned performance-enhancing drug that is hard to
detect and has been linked to health problems such as diabetes,
cardiac dysfunction and arthritis.
In January, shortly before the Super Bowl, House Oversight
and Government Reform Committee chairman Darrell Issa, a
California Republican, and ranking Democrat Elijah
Cummings of Maryland wrote NFLPAhead DeMaurice Smith to
chastise the union for standing in the way of HGH testing and
to warn that lawmakers could ask players to testify on Capitol
Hill.
Late last year, that House committee held a hearing at which
medical experts testied that HGH testing is reliable and that
the unions request for a population study was unnecessary. But
in March, a ruling by the Court of Arbitration for Sport in a
case involving a cross-country skier raised questions about the
reliability of thresholds for HGH tests.

Dalton disputed Coutts contention that the weights didnt
affect the boats performance.
Why would you actually do it, if it didnt make a differ-
ence? Dalton said in an interview with The Chronicle.
Properly placed extra weight does improve the performance
of the boat. Because of the design, you like the weight for-
ward. You put one guy really far forward to keep the bow in the
water.
He called Coutts insistence that management didnt know
about the placement of the weights complete nonsense. He
said he felt Oracle was trying to snow people with its expla-
nations.
Its inconceivable that a shore crew member woke up one
morning and decided it was a good idea that management
would think it was a good idea that to make the boat faster
you would put some weight in the boat, and then youd come
in to work one day and do it, Dalton said.
He said if someone were to add weights or move them
around on a Team New Zealand boat, the team would run tests
to see if it would help performance. He didnt buy the idea that
rogue employees committed violations on their own at
Oracle.
The violations were not discovered until July 26, when the
boats were tested in preparation of the Red Bull Youth
Americas Cup later this month.
Earlier this year, Dalton criticized Oracle Corp. CEO Larry
Ellison, who owns Oracle Team USA, for offering a grand
vision of the Americas Cup that has failed to materialize.
While Ellison and other organizers once projected a dozen or
so challengers, only three made it to the trials, mostly
because of the steep cost of running a campaign.
One of those challengers, Artemis Racing, suffered a crip-
pling blow when its rst catamaran capsized on May 9,
killing crewman Andrew Bart Simpson and destroying the
boat. Artemis missed the Louis Vuitton Cup round-robins and
was swept in four races by Luna Rossa in the seminals.
Dalton didnt accuse Coutts personally.
I can only say that theres a management failure, he said.

NEW ORLEANS Stuffed shrimp are
decor rather than dinner for some of the
folks who have caught the really big sort
invasive Asian tiger shrimp in the
Gulf of Mexico or along the East Coast.
Sometimes the shrimp become both food
and a wall display. Joe Strange of Joes
Taxidermy in Houma said he mounted three
last year, dining on the meat he removed
from the two smallest, about 7 and 10 inch-
es long.
I just threw them quick in a frying pan
with butter, salt and pepper, he said. That
way you get the true taste.
He liked them. They were better tasting
than our shrimp. I would trade them off for
our shrimp anytime.
Scientists and others are worried that
might happen, with possible devastating
effects on native shrimp and the Gulf of
Mexicos ecosystem. The invaders could
gobble up the tigers share of native
shrimps diet, not to mention crabs,
snails, oysters and other bivalves, and the
local shrimp themselves because all
shrimp are carnivores. And, in turn, that
could affect the larger animals that eat
those critters.
Tiger shrimp are named for their black-
and-white or black-and-yellow stripes.
Theyre known from the slip an extra
shrimp on the barbie line that brought
actor Paul Hogan to U.S. fame through an
Australian tourism TV ad in the mid-1980s.
The shrimp native to Indo-Pacific,
Asian, and Australian waters are bigger
enough than native species that they could
both outcompete and just plain eat their
smaller cousins out of existence.
Scientists say theres no evidence of that
happening so far. But the numbers of tiger
shrimp reported, with more in inshore
nursery areas and juveniles caught along
both coasts, indicate that theyre probably
breeding, said Pam Fuller, who keeps a fed-
eral invasive species database at the U.S.
Geological Surveys Southeast Ecological
Science Center in Gainesville, Fla.
Strange said hed tried taxidermy on
native shrimp, but they fell apart the
legs crumble off. Tiger shrimp seem to
have tougher carapaces and legs, he said.
The only thing it lost was its antenna. I
made them out of fishing twine.
Pete Miller of Water and Wildlife Studio
in Marshallberg, N.C., has mounted about
a dozen tiger shrimp, freeze-drying them
rather than scooping out the meat.
The shrimp have become so numerous in
U.S. waters that federal scientists dont
have a good handle on just how many are
out there, even though the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administrations
fisheries division asked last year for
shrimpers to report and freeze them for
DNAanalysis.
The number of reports has gone down
because people have gotten so used to see-
ing them theyve just stopped reporting
them, Fuller said.
Commercial fisherman Kenny Rustick of
Gloucester, N.C., said that about three
years ago, he reported the first of four tiger
shrimp he has caught on the 32-foot Mad
Lady II. He had that one and a second
mounted. He said hed seen photos on the
Internet, so he knew what he had.
Beyond dinner: Invasive shrimp mounted for display
Hundredsof tiger shrimp were caught along South Carolina,Georgia and Florida after a storm hit
a South Carolina shrimp farm in 1988,but none were reported in U.S.waters for the next 18 years.

After leaving the magazine in 2005, how-
ever, Anusasananan decided to learn more
about her own culture the Hakka people
of China, known for being nomadic as they
traveled south for centuries from Central
China down into Malaysia and Singapore
and nally the rest of the world.
Her grandmother had always told her she
should appreciate her Hakka heritage but
being the only Chinese family in Paradise,
Calif. many decades ago, Anusasananan did
not think much about being Hakka. Being
Chinese was enough to stand out in the rural
Northern California town as her father was
the rst to open a Chinese restaurant in
Paradise back in 1950.
After leaving Sunset, she set out on an
adventure to travel to China to learn about
the Hakka people and the food they eat for a
cookbook she had in mind to write.
She had neither a publisher nor an agent,
however, so she also had no deadline to
meet. She had never written a book before
and ended up traveling to China, Malaysia,
Singapore, Peru and Canada to learn about
her culture and how its food adapted over
time.
She was surprised to learn how scattered
the Hakka had become over the centuries
and how populous the group actually is
about 75 million living all across the
globe.
She spent six years working on the book,
mostly from her home in San Mateo, and it
ended up containing a lot more than just
recipes it became part history book and
memoir, she told the Daily Journal.
Published near the end of 2012, The
Hakka Cookbook, Chinese Soul Food from
around the World has already been named
the best Chinese cuisine cookbook in the
world by Gourmand International for its
annual World Cookbook Awards.
The book is also selling faster than expect-
ed as it is already in its second printing.
I thought it would take two years for
that to happen, she told the Daily
Journal.
Since the book was published, Hakka
people from all over have contacted her to
thank her for writing it.
I learned that they werent always wel-
come. They were hard-working migrants
who had to be adaptable, she said.
They were often inland people with little
access to seafood who lived in isolated
areas where the food had to last. Cured
meats and preserved vegetables with
strong flavors created a hearty, satisfying
cuisine, she said.
Some Hakka classics include stuffed tofu,
salt-baked chicken and steamed pork belly
with preserved mustard greens. Pounded tea
is also a Hakka classic and, depending on
what country you are in, can be a sweet
drink or a dish served over rice. Hakka food
in India also evolved to satisfy the tastes
of locals as it combines Indian spices with
Chinese ingredients.
They created dishes for the locals. It is
how they adapted and survived, she said.
While some Hakka dishes adapted to the
local culture, many have remained true to
its origins, she said.
Very few Hakka recipes, however, are
actually written in English, she said. There
are also very few restaurants in the Bay
Area that specialize in Hakka cuisine.
Some Hakka-type dishes might be show up
on a Cantonese restaurants menu, she said.
Anusasananan has garnered international
attention in the press for her work but her
neighbors in San Mateo probably do not
know that even though she has lived in the
Beresford-Hillsdale neighborhood for 30
years.
It will be nice to get a little local atten-
tion, she said.

on students using technology in class-
rooms. In doing so, ofcials say the stan-
dards will do a better job prepping students
for college and careers while replacing older
standardized tests with 2015 Smarter
Balance Assessments.
California was one of 45 states, the
District of Columbia and four territories that
got on board with the curriculum back in
2010. Since then, California schools have
been trying to get up to the new standards.
During one discussion featuring Marwell,
the federal ConnectED initiative was the
main topic of conversation. Marwells com-
pany operates a school speed test that
evaluates technology infrastructure at
schools. This is a huge part of the
ConnectED initiative, which aims to con-
nect 99 percent of Americas students to the
Internet through high-speed broadband and
high-speed wireless within ve years from
now.
Michael Steffen, director of digital learn-
ing for the Federal Communications
Commission, said its important to make
sure students have the devices to help them
learn, treating Internet as a basic utility
service, making phenomenal open content
available and preparing teachers to use the
technology.
Steffen said hes working on a guidebook
on how schools can get connected better.
One audience member asked about how to
support students outside of the classroom
who dont have the technology at home.
The member added that this could add to the
achievement gap.
Richard Culatta, director of the Ofce of
Education Technology at the Department of
Education, said off-campus access does offer
challenges said libraries are a fundamental
piece of that puzzle for student who dont
have connectivity at home or stay late at
school.
The discussion and activities of the day
mainly centered around leveraging technol-
ogy, the $1.25 billion for Common Core
implementation, and billions of dollars in
additional state funding for schools to
enhance the implementation.
The Education Trust-West, Education
Pioneers, Full Circle Fund, the Clayton
Christensen Institute for Disruptive
Innovation and Digital Promise all partici-
pated in discussions on utilizing technolo-
gy to plan the shift to Common Core
Standards.

family friendly ining since 1995
By J.M. Hirsch
By this point in the summer, Ive
had about all the burgers, dogs and
birds I can handle. Its time to try
something a little different on the
grill.
And one thing most of us dont do
nearly enough of grilled fruit. Not
only is grilled fruit crazy delicious
thanks to the intense heat carameliz-
ing all the natural sugars it also
pairs perfectly with savory meats.
So to help us all get out of our late
summer grilling ruts, I came up with
this easy recipe for pork tenderloin
cutlets topped with grilled cherry
salsa.
And if cherries arent your thing,
feel free to substitute apricots, plums,
nectarines, even grapes. They all grill
up deliciously. For the grapes, just
leave them right on the vine and toss
them on the grill the way they are.
That way you wont need to chase
rolling grapes around on the grill.
They are easily removed from the vine
after they cool.
PORK TENDERLOIN CUTLETS
WITH GRILLED CHERRY SALSA
Before starting the recipe, compare
the size of your cherries to the size of
the grates on your grill. If the cherries
are likely to fall through the gaps, use
a grill pan over the grates. Most gro-
cers sell disposable perforated foil
grill pans that work perfectly for this.
Start to nish: 45 minutes
Servings: 6
2 pounds pork tenderloins
1 1/2 tablespoons sh sauce
1 1/2 cups fresh cherries, pitted
2 tablespoons canola or vegetable
oil, divided
1 small red onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
2 tablespoons chopped fresh
cilantro
Salt and ground black pepper, to
taste
Cut the tenderloin crosswise into
rounds about 1 inch thick. One at a
time, set each round between sheets
of plastic wrap and use a meat mal-
let to pound to an even thickness of
about 1/4 inch.
Transfer the attened pork cutlets to
a large zip-close plastic bag. Add the
sh sauce, then shake to coat all of the
pork. Squeeze the air from the bag, seal
it and set side. This step can be done up
to 24 hours ahead.
When ready to cook, heat the grill to
high.
In a medium bowl, toss the cherries
with 1 tablespoon of the oil until well
coated. Carefully pour the cherries
onto the grill grates and grill until
lightly charred in spots and tender,
about 2 to 3 minutes. Use tongs to
return the cherries to the bowl. Set
aside to cool slightly. Leave the grill
on.
Once the cherries have cooled, add
the onion, garlic, vinegar and
cilantro. Mix well, then season with
salt and pepper. Set aside.
Add the remaining tablespoon of oil
to the bag of pork, then shake to coat.
Grill the tenderloins for 2 to 3 minutes
per side.
Arrange the cutlets on 6 serving
plates, then top each with some of the
grilled cherry salsa.

Give wild rice a second
chance in summer salad
By Alison Ladman
Wild rice seemed to have its moment back in the 90s.
Thats roughly when Americans rst seemed to discover there
was more to the rice world than long grain white. Since then,
wild rice (and yes, we know its really a grass, not a true rice)
seems to have lost its luster. People moved on to all the many
other new and exciting grains that have come along since,
things like quinoa and farro, not to mention the many design-
er and heirloom rices now lining grocers shelves.
HERBED WILD RICE SALAD
WITH APRICOTS AND BLUEBERRIES
Start to nish: 1 1/2 hours (30 minutes active)
Servings: 6
1 cup wild rice
Kosher salt
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
Ground black pepper
2 fresh apricots, pitted and diced
1 cup blueberries
In a medium pot, combine the wild rice, a hefty pinch of salt
and 6 cups water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.
Simmer for 35 to 45 minutes, adding water as needed. When
the rice is tender, strain through a mesh strainer and spread in
an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet to cool. To speed the
process, you can set the baking sheet in the refrigerator.
Once the rice has cooled, in a medium bowl, whisk together
the olive oil, vinegar, honey, mustard, chives, tarragon,
thyme and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Stir in the wild rice,
apricots and blueberries. Season with additional salt and black
pepper as needed.
Grilled fruit is delicious thanks to the intense heat caramelizing all the natural sugars and it also pairs perfectly with meats.

Woodland Apartments in East Palo
Alto, which currently has 21 studios
and two one-bedroom apartments to
rent, according to representatives
with InnVision Shelter Network.
About 70 attended the town hall
meeting and about half of them still
do not have permanent housing.
About half of the former residents,
however, have found permanent hous-
i ng.
Many who have not yet found hous-
ing are living in area motels until the
end of the month.
Many complained that the private
contractor hired to care for and decon-
taminate the units and the belongings
inside have been unresponsive.
Landlord KDF Hallmark refunded
residents July rent and returned
deposits and has also provided letters
of recommendations for the former
tenants to help them find new hous-
ing, said Teri Chin, Human Services
manager for Redwood City.
Shari Dewart and Ray Lavin have
been living at a Days Inn while they
search for housing.
They contend their unit only suf-
fered water damage and that they need
everyday items still in their unit such
as Lavins dentures to survive.
Ramona Boyd said her unit also
only suffered water damage and wants
her clothes back.
But the presence of asbestos has
made the complex toxic, Chin said.
Residents were only given 15 min-
utes two days after the fire broke out
to go inside their units to take back
any of their belongings.
At least 13 former residents have
filed a lawsuit against KDF Hallmark,
saying the landlord was negligent for
not installing fire sprinklers.
A fire incident report has still not
been completed, however, Chin told
the crowd.
Fire investigators have stated the
fire was likely an accident that started
in a third-floor unit where the
deceased, 48-year-old Darin Michael
Demello-Pine, was cooking at about
1:45 a.m.
The victims, many who receive
housing assistance, have learned
firsthand since the fire that there is a
lack of affordable housing in the area.
The city is responding to the fire
victims needs at a time when funds
for affordable housing have dried up.
Redwood City continues to
advance affordable housing despite
the challenge of $10 million in city
funds earmarked for below market
housing being appropriated by the
state when RDAs (Redevelopment
Agencies) were dissolved. Redwood
City proactively procures and dis-
burses grants expressly used for
the purpose of supporting affordable
housing from the Community
Development Block Grant program
and the federal governments HOME
grant program. Redwood City will
continue to support and seek to create
housing opportunities for our resi-
dents of all income levels, city
spokeswoman Sheri Costa-Batis
wrote the Daily Journal in an email
last night.
Some of the victims remain in good
spirits and are hopeful they will find-
ing housing soon.
Victim Angela Parks plans to visit
the Woodland Apartments in East Palo
Alto today to see if she can find a new
place to live.
Others, however, did not like the
idea of having to move to East Palo
Alto because of the citys high crime
rate.
Redwood City plans another open
house Aug. 20 for the victims.

VICTIMS
Patric says he hasnt seen the child
in months and asked lawmakers to
think about a child sitting daily and
wondering what happened.
As a result of that case and others
brought to his attention, state Sen.
Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo, put forward
legislation that would allow a man
whose sperm was used to conceive a
child through articial insemination
to seek parental rights if he can show a
certain level of involvement in the
childs life.
Hill says his bill, SB115, is an
attempt to clarify a 2011 statute,
which said unmarried men who provid-
ed sperm to a doctor or sperm bank do
not have parental rights unless other-
wise agreed to in writing prior to con-
ception.
The measure sailed through the
Senate without opposition but recent-
ly has generated aggressive lobbying
from representatives for Patric,
Schreiber and organizations involved
in child custody and womens rights.
Among the bills supporters are
Equality California and the National
Center for Lesbian Rights, which say
the bill strikes the right balance by
requiring a donor seeking parental
rights to have lived with the child and
presented the child as his own.
Opponents including the states
chapter of the National Organization
for Women, Planned Parenthood, and
the Academy of California Adoption
Lawyers say the measure is too
broad and could unintentionally affect
the rights of single mothers or same-
sex couples who use sperm donors.
In emotional but measured testimo-
ny Tuesday, Patric told the Assembly
Judiciary Committee that he went to
great lengths, including surgery, to
become a father. He said both he and
Schreiber signed an intended parent
document, but that current law prevent-
ed him from fully presenting his case
to the judge.
Other men have come to him to share
similar cases and every single one of
us was barred from proving our parent-
age by this loophole in a law, Patric
said.
Schreibers attorney, Fred Heather,
told lawmakers that a judge did consid-
er Patrics documents and videos of his
son, but ultimately ruled against him.
The suggestion that the trial judge
was confused as to the state of the law
is equally untrue, said Heather, who
asked lawmakers to refrain from acting
on the bill while the case is on appeal.
The Assembly Judiciary Committee
voted 5-2 to hold the bill in committee
for further discussion.
Assemblyman Roger Dickinson, D-
Sacramento, who voted to keep the
bill in committee, said he believes the
parental rights issue raised by the case
needs to be addressed but that the court
system rst should be allowed to nish
its work.
Its premature from my point of
view to have the Legislature take
action on this issue, Dickinson said.
Hill said after the hearing that he
will continue to work with various par-
ties to reach agreement on the legisla-
tion. The senator said he felt resist-
ance from some lawmakers to his
attempts to work on the bill and asked
the committee to reconsider an amend-
ed version before this years session
concludes.
Patric also expressed frustration
after the vote, remarking briey to an
Associated Press reporter that the com-
mittee doesnt care about children in
the middle of something and xing it.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Peggy Ann Thrope
Case Number: 123544
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: Peggy Ann Thorpe. A
Petition for Probate has been filed by
Linda S. Thorpe and Laura K. Wilson in
the Superior Court of California, County
of San Mateo. The Petition for Probate
requests that Linda S. Thorpe and Laura
K. Wilson be appointed as personal rep-
resentative to administer the estate of
the decedent.
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 9, 2013
at 9:00 a.m., Dept. 28, Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo, 400
County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063. If you object to the granting of the
petition, you should appear at the hear-
ing and state your objections or file writ-
ten objections with the court before the
hearing. Your appearance may be in
person or by your attorney. 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 provided in Pro-
bate Code section 9100. The time for fil-
ing claims will not expire before four
months from the hearing date noticed
above. You may examine the file kept by
the court. If you are a person interested
in the estate, you may file with the court
a Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.
