CHICAGO Americans got
their rst chance Tuesday to shop
for health insurance using the
online marketplaces that are at the
heart of President Barack Obamas
health care overhaul, but govern-
ment websites
designed to
sell the poli-
cies struggled
to handle the
traffic, with
many frustrated
users reporting
trouble setting
up accounts.
State and fed-
eral agencies were working to x
the sites, which represent the
biggest expansion in coverage in
nearly 50 years. There should be
time to make improvements. The
open-enrollment period lasts for
six months.
Administration officials said
they were pleased with the strong
consumer interest. At least 2.8
million people had visited the
healthcare.gov website as of
Tuesday afternoon, said Medicare
administrator Marilyn Tavenner,
whose office is overseeing the
rollout of the Affordable Care Act.
The website had seven times the
number of simultaneous users ever
recorded on the medicare.gov site.
But at most only a handful of
people had been able to success-
fully enroll online through the
federal website in that time period,
according to two industry ofcials
with knowledge of the situation.
The ofcials spoke on condition
of anonymity because they were
not authorized to speak about the
issue publicly. The number of
those enrolled is expected grow as

SACRAMENTO Thousands of
Californians seeking to buy their
own health insurance ooded call
centers with questions and over-
loaded the states online market-
place Tuesday on the rst day of a
new federal health care law that
will dramatically change the way
Americans buy health insurance.
Dozens of workers at a call cen-
ter in the Sacramento suburb of
Rancho Cordova began fielding
calls after a countdown to the 8
a.m. opening of the health
exchange. The agency that runs
the exchange, Covered California,
initially reported on Twitter that
more than 30,000 telephone calls
were received during the rst 90
minutes of operations, but later
lowered the number to 6,500.
We are here in California on the
right side of history, Peter Lee,
executive director of Covered
California, said during a news
event in the Rancho Cordova call
center, one of three in the state.
He said Tuesday was just the
starting point, and it was evident
that exchange ofcials had work
to do after the website and phone
system were hit with a crush of
inquiries.
While no major glitches were
immediately reported, the site was
slow to load once users clicked on
a tab that said Start Here.
Ofcials had predicted delays on
the rst day and said many would
merely be seeking information

Belmont call center helps

Enrollment counselors in rows
of cubicles at the Belmont call
center had all the tools needed to
connect people with a new insur-
ance plan or expanded Medi-Cal
coverage a computer screen, a
telephone, hours of training on
the complexities of what is collo-
quially known as Obamacare.
All the employees needed were
the calls.
By mid-afternoon on the first
day of enrollment, some of the 46
call agents hadnt yet elded a call
while others could tick off a few.
Perhaps the slow trickle was fueled
by early news reports of glitches
and long wait times or uncertainty
of whether the federal government
shutdown was similarly hampering
enrollment. Regardless, the staff
at the Human Services Agency cen-
ter on Harbor Boulevard said they
were ready from the 8 a.m. start
Tuesday and will remain so
through the end of the enrollment
period in March and beyond.

announcement to withdraw from the race at

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A caretaker accused of hitting a now-
deceased 88-year-old Millbrae man over the
head with a walker pleaded no contest to
felony counts of assault and physical elder
abuse.
Jalome Sukulu Balekaba, 50, took the
plea deal rather than stand trial as sched-
uled on Monday, Oct. 8. He faces up to
seven years in prison when sentenced Nov.
26 instead of the 11 years if he had faced a
jury.
Balekaba worked as a
caretaker for the man and,
during a Dec. 19, 2011
phone call with his
nephew, reportedly
sounded intoxicated,
according to the District
Attorneys Ofce.
The nephew contacted
the Sheriffs Offices
Millbrae Bureau for a wel-
fare check and police
reported finding Balekaba asleep in his
room while the man was in a living room
chair bleeding profusely from the head. The
man was hospitalized where he was treated
for a stroke and became comatose. He died
10 weeks later.
Investigators cannot conclusively prove
the alleged strike led to the mans death 10
weeks later which is why Balekaba was
charged with felony counts of assault and
physical elder abuse rather than homicide.
The plea deal is an excellent outcome,
said District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe.
He remains in custody on $200,000 bail.

Solving Ralston Avenues trafc woes,
what to do to attract more commerce to down-
town and moving past some recent contro-
versial decisions by the Belmont City
Council are some of the most pressing con-
cerns the six candidates in the race for three
open council seats expressed in a recent sit-
down with the Daily Journal.
The candidates are incumbent Planning
Commissioner Gladwyn dSouza, incumbent
Vice Mayor Warren Lieberman, Planning
Commissioner Kristin Mercer, Eric Reed,
who is a former planning commissioner,
attorney Charles Stone and real estate broker
Michael Verdone.
Lieberman is seeking his third term on the
council and Reed narrowly lost a bid for the
council two years ago, being edged out by
current Mayor Christine Wozniak. The other
candidates are seeking elected ofce for the
rst time.
The candidates were given the same ques-
tions to answer in 50 words or fewer to help
the Daily Journal determine endorsements.
Answers are arranged alphabetically by the
candidates last name.
Shoul d the ci ty i nvest more
resources i n sol vi ng trafc condi-
ti ons on Ral ston Avenue? In your
opinion, what is the best way to
sol ve the probl em?
Gladwyn dSouza: Yes, we should work
with the Transit Authority and C/CAG to use
regional funds for Ralston. Ralston is our
main arterial. And we need to use existing
resources to enforce speed limits. In the long
run, planning and design done right would
save money, because enforcement would be
engineered.
Warren Lieberman: Traffic planners
have previously been hired to provide us
with a plan for improving mobility on
Ralston, including bicycling and walkabili-
t y. They have identied a range of efforts to
improve conditions, some of which can be
easily implemented.
Kristin Mercer: For starters, employ
low-cost solutions. Enforce speed limits,
narrow trafc lanes to make wider bike lanes
and to buffer sidewalks, and restripe cross-
walks. Schools are major contributors: work
with all schools to develop transit plans,
stagger bell times, employ carpool
apps/websites, develop a pay-in school shut-
tle-bus, improve sidewalks and trails on safe-
routes-to-school and organize walking
school-buses.
Eric Reed:At a recent community event
where the Ralston Corridor Study data was
released, I was impressed with the innovative
suggestions that came from the engaged audi-
ence. Yes, the city should work to address
trafc issues on Ralston and the best way to
do that is by working with the community.
Charles Stone:Yes, but there is no sin-
gle cure-all approach for the problems
plaguing Ralston. Success involves balanc-
ing trafc and bicycle access to nd workable
solutions that dont compromise the safety
of pedestrians; particularly children walking
to school. Ill engage the community, deter-
mine priorities and build consensus around
workable options like better crossings,
smart signals and well-marked bike routes.
Michael Verdone: Yes. While the city
has been proactive in the Ralston corridor
study and has allowed for public input,
improving the poor lighting conditions,
pedestrian right of way, bike paths and trafc
congestions during peak hours is crucial and
only the beginning to alleviating trafc.
What is most pressi ng i ssue faci ng
Belmont right now?
Gladwyn dSouza: Manage the budget to
keep police and re service. Belmont, like
most cities in California, is at a crossroads of
unfunded mandates overrunning the ability to
provide services. The problem is much worse
with the schools. Belmont needs to also
account for Sacramento stealing money from
the local level to pay for its extravagant
ideas.
Warren Lieberman:We have several
important issues including nalizing a plan
to improve the sports complex, including
the identication of funding sources; identi-
fying revenue sources to improve our infra-
structure, especially roads; and following up
on the recommendations of the citys eco-
nomic consultants for creating a revitalized
downtown.
Kristin Mercer:During the recession,
the city balanced the budget by prioritizing
essential services. Now we need to improve
our infrastructure and facilities. Essential
needs are estimated at $140 million, but our
wish list is double that. We need to engage
the community in a pragmatic dialogue about
priorities; given the price tag of each item,
where should funds go rst?
Eric Reed: Belmonts El Camino Real
corridor is not generating the kind of income
Belmont candidates weigh in on issues

Man suspected of
robbing 7-Eleven arrested
after Happy Donuts robbery
A San Mateo man is in custody
for robbing a Happy Donuts in
Redwood City early Tuesday morn-
ing and police are linking him to
an early-morning robbery of a 7-
Eleven in San Mateo last week.

Local briefs
SACRAMENTO California
Gov. Jerry Brown on Tuesday
signed a bill outlawing so-called
revenge porn and levying possi-
ble jail time for people who post
naked photos of their exes after
bitter breakups.
Senate Bill 255, which takes
effect immediately, makes it a mis-
demeanor to post identiable nude
pictures of someone else online
without permission with the
intent to cause emotional distress
or humiliation. The penalty is up
to six months in jail and a $1,000
ne.
Until now, there was no tool for
law enforcement to protect vic-
tims, the bills author, Sen.
Anthony Cannella, said in a state-
ment. Too many have had their
lives upended because of an action
of another that they trusted.
Cannella, a Republican from
Ceres, has said
revenge porn is
a growing prob-
lem in the age
of social media,
when photos
and videos that
were made pri-
vately during a
r e l a t i o n s h i p
can find their
way onto hundreds of websites.
Before the criminal law was
enacted, California allowed vic-
tims to sue their virtual assailants,
but that is an expensive and time-
consuming option.
The American Civil Liberties
Union had opposed the bill, argu-
ing it might restrict free speech
rights, which has been a concern
in other states as well.
Florida lawmakers rejected a
similar bill this year after First
Amendment concerns surfaced
there.

Its a political perfect storm:The pairing of a government shut-
down with the rollout of a big chunk of the health care law is
illustrating all sorts of partisan and cultural tensions that are
roilingAmerica.Biggovernment vs.small.TheRepublicanPartys
identity crisis.Sharpening political divisions among Americans.
And plenty more.
HOW BIG IS TOO BIG?
Dueling images of the government powering itself down just
as Americans for the rst time are logging on to Obamacares
new health-insurance exchanges bring into high relief a de-
bate that Americans have been having since the birth of the
nation.How much government do we really need? How much
is too much?
The Founding Fathers rejected the tyranny of kings and ap-
portioned powers among Congress, the states, the executive
and the courts in a balance that Americans of diverse beliefs
have argued over ever since.Ronald Reagan famously declared
government the problem,not the solution then added to its
size. Bill Clinton announced the end of the era of big govern-
ment and pared it back. Barack Obama won election
twice holding out the promise of an activist government
that could do so much more for its citizens.
Now, Republicans have turned Obamacare into a political
metaphor for what they hold out as the heavy hand of Wash-
ington. Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, said people in his state are
telling him that if shutting things down is the only way to stop
the runaway train called the federal government, then were
willing to try it.
Others question whether its a fair ght.
There are no Republicans who talk about Obamacare as any-
thing other than socialized medicine, a government takeover
of the health care system,says Calvin Mackenzie, a professor
of government at ColbyCollegeinMaine.Anybodywhos stud-
ied Obamacare would nd that a hard conclusion to draw.
GOP SOUL SEARCHING
Sure, theres a huge clash between Republicans and Democ-
rats unfolding in Washington.But the more interesting struggle
is playing out within the Republican Party,whose tea party con-
tingent is forcing even conservative members to tack ever
farther right and making it harder for Congress to nd com-
mongroundonall sortsof bigproblemsnot just thebudget.
House Speaker John Boehner was reluctant to provoke a shut-
down but ultimately bowed to pressure from tea partyers in
his caucus insistent on linking the ght over Obamacare with
nancing for the government.
Obama put the blame for Washingtons paralysis all on one
faction of one party, in one house of Congress, in one branch
of government.That was an oversimplication, no doubt, but
one that summed up the roiling divisions in the Capitol and
withintheGOP.It laidbarethesenseamongDemocratsthat the
tea party is not just an opposing force, but a corrosive one.
There are plenty of Republicans who are ne with a govern-
ment shutdown. But others in the GOP worry that the party is
heading for a repeat of the 2012 elections in which GOP pres-
idential candidate Mitt Romney and a number of conservative
candidates for Congress didnt have enough appeal with mod-
erates to produce GOP victories.
The standoff over Obamacare could be a moment of truth for
a party trying to determine its direction.
THE HEALTH CARE DILEMMA
The president accuses GOP critics of Obamacare of trying to
keep people uninsured; Republicans say theyre waging a prin-
cipled ght against a mammoth government overreach.
Both arguments oversimplify the debate. At the heart of Oba-
macare are complicated questions of what kind of health care
Americans are entitled to, how much they should have to pay
and how to rein in the huge share of U.S.economic activity that
is swallowed up by health care costs.
Americans spend nearly 20 cents of every dollar on health care.
What worries economists most is the rate of growth. The na-
tions health care tab has consistently grown faster than just
about everythingelse,outpacingwagesandthegrossdomestic
product.That means it could crowd out other priorities,such as
business investment and government spending on education.
Government programs cover more than 100 million Ameri-
cans about 1 in 3 people. That share is going to grow as
Obamas health care law takes hold.
But unlike many other developed nations, the United States
seems likely to keep its mix of employer coverage,government
programs and individual responsibility instead of adopting a
government-run model for all.
NANNY WARS
The Obamacare debate touches on a long-running debate in
America about the idea of a nanny state when the gov-
ernment goes too far in protecting people from themselves.
Does the mandate to obtain health insurance just concern the
person who is forced to get it? Or does it benet the health
care system and the economy to make sure nearly everyone is
covered? Thats part of the debate over the health care law.
Prohibition said no to making and selling booze in the Con-
stitution,noless,until another constitutional amendment made
it easy to get plastered again.Washington pushed for state mo-
torcycle helmet laws, with mixed success, and mandated seat
belts in vehicles.
Hillary Clinton earned plenty of ridicule from the right for as-
serting that it takes a villageto raise a child. And in the face of
substantial childhood obesity,Michelle Obama has taken some
hits for her campaign to get kids to exercise and eat healthy
food.
Polling suggests that Americans value personal choice over
government involvement whenit comestobehavior,but itsnot
quite that simple.In an Associated Press-NORC Center poll out
this year, 8 in 10 favored government policies that make it eas-
ier for people to make healthier choices, such as providing
nutritionandexerciseguidelines,andthree-quarterssupported
government money for farmers markets and bike paths. But
most didnt like government mandates on their choices.
RED vs. BLUE
Obama came to national attention almost a decade ago on
the strength of a keynote speech to the 2004 Democratic Na-
tional Convention that rejected the notion of red states and
blue states and declared theres not a liberal America and a
conservative America; theres the United States of America.
Many times since hes played on that theme of a nation not
split by those party colors, in what can only be called wishful
thinking.
Whats happened in the budget impasse,the struggle over the
health care law and much else in Washington is very much a
product of red vs. blue, sometimes to a point where each side
can barely talk to the other.
Of todays political divisions, Mackenzie says:Theyre about as
hard as they can be.
Not because the middle ground has necessarily disappeared
but because it is not what counts the most to some ideologues
at this time. (Check back on that when the 2014 elections roll
around).Republicans who have placed their opposition to the
health care law at the center of everything are responding only
to a slice of public opinion, Mackenzie says.Theyre thinking
about the people who elect them and the people who fund
them and those people are very supportive of what theyre
doing.
To be sure, bipartisanship is still a feel-good word in Washing-
ton, but its thrown around loosely. Everyone ideally wants the
political cover that can come when hefty chunks of both par-
ties agree on something, and they claim it even when it isnt
there.
Several Republican lawmakers did just that after a series of po-
larizing votes leading to the shutdown,particularly the one on
the House resolution that sought to pass a budget only on con-
dition that the health care law be stripped of money. Sen.Ted
Cruz of Texas claimed a strong bipartisan majorityin the vote;
Rep. Kevin McCarthy of California said:It was a bipartisan mo-
ment because were all Americans.
It was actually more of a bipolar moment. Only two Democ-
rats voted with the Republican majority and one Republican
voted with the Democrats.
ITS PERSONAL, TOO
This is a political and policy dispute thats also personal.
The tea partyersdisdain for the president is unrestrained, with
talk of impeachment all the rage.
Republicans were quick to re-label the Affordable Care Act as
Obamacare to personalize their dislike of the thing.
Even Boehner, typically known for his even keel, did a mock-
ing impression of Obama on the House oor as the shutdown
neared,parroting the presidents voice in saying:Im not going
to negotiate, Im not going to negotiate. Im not going to do
this.
Newt Gingrich, the House speaker who orchestrated the last
government shutdown in the 1990s, chimed in Tuesday to say
that Obama refuses to behave like an American president. He
refuses to deal with the Congress as his equal, which it is in the
Constitution.
Obama complained that House Republicans were trying to
messwithmebypassingabill tocut off moneyfor Obamacare.
But thepresident andtheDemocratsthemselveshaveungout
plenty of overheated rhetoric,referring toRepublicans as black-
mailers, anarchists, extortionists, and more.
Obama offered assurances,though,that were not demonizing
the other side.
Budget fight a perfect storm of issues
By Kathy Matheson and Mark Scolforo
PHILADELPHIA Visitors arrived to nd
CLOSED signs at the Statue of Liberty,
the Smithsonian and other parks and his-
toric sites across the country. Callers look-
ing for help from the government reached
only voicemail. And federal employees were
left to wonder when they would return to
work.
The first government shutdown in 17
years took hold Tuesday in ways large and
small.
About 800,000 federal employees were
sent home a number greater than the com-
bined U.S. workforces of Target, General
Motors, Exxon and Google.
After next week, if were not working,
Im going to have to nd a job, said Robert
Turner, a building mechanic at the
Smithsonians American History museum in
the nations capital. He was called in for part
of the day to take out the trash, turn off the
water and help close up the place.
The effects played out in a variety of
ways, from scaled-back operations at federal
prosecutors ofces and the FBI to revoked
permits for dozens of weddings at historic
sites in Washington.
Campers and hikers at the Grand Canyon,
Yosemite, Yellowstone and other national
parks were given two days to pack up and
leave, and new visitors were being turned
away. St. Louis landmark 630-foot-high
Gateway Arch was off-limits as well.
In Philadelphia, Paul Skilling of Northern
Ireland wanted to see the Liberty Bell up
close but had to settle for looking at the
symbol of democracy through glass. And he
wasnt optimistic about the chances of vis-
iting any landmarks in Washington, the
next stop on a weeks-long visit.
Politics is fantastic, isnt it? he said
ruefully.
In New York, tourists who had hoped to
see the Statue of Liberty were instead offered
an hour harbor cruise.
There has to be better ways to run the
government than to get to a standstill like
this, said Cheryl Strahl, a disappointed
visitor from Atascadero, Calif. Why take it
out on the national parks?
The government closings did not stop the
launch on Tuesday of the enrollment period
for the online insurance marketplaces estab-
lished under President Barack Obamas
health care overhaul the program at the
very heart of the dispute that produced the
shutdown.
The two federal employees in orbit around
the Earth NASAastronauts Karen Nyberg
and Michael Hopkins carried on as usual
aboard the International Space Station, with
essential employees at Mission Control in
Houston supporting the lab and its six
inhabitants.
There were no TV or web updates, howev-
er, as most of NASAs workforce was fur-
loughed.

NATION 7
By David Espo and Donna Cassata
WASHINGTON First slowed, then
stalled by political gridlock, the vast
machinery of government clanged into par-
tial shutdown mode on Tuesday and
President Barack Obama warned the longer
it goes the more families will be hurt.
Republicans said it was his fault, not
theirs, and embarked on a strategy
opposed by Democrats of voting on
bills to reopen individual agencies or pro-
grams.
Ominously, there were suggestions from
leaders in both parties that the shutdown,
heading for its second day, could last for
weeks and grow to encompass a possible
default by the Treasury if Congress fails to
raise the nations debt ceiling. The two
issues are now all together, said Sen.
Dick Durbin, D-Ill.
Speaking at the White House, the presi-
dent accused Republicans of causing the
rst partial closure in 17 years as part of a
non-stop ideological crusade to wipe out
his signature health care law.
House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio,
gave as good as he got. The president isnt
telling the whole story, he said in an opin-
ion article posted on the USA Today web-
site. The fact is that Washington
Democrats have slammed the door on
reopening the government by refusing to
engage in bipartisan talks.
Both houses of Congress met in a
Capitol closed to regular public tours, part
of the impact of a partial shutdown that
sent ripples of disruption outward from
museums and memorials in Washington to
Yellowstone and other national parks and
to tax auditors and federal ofces serving
Americans coast to coast.
Officials said roughly 800,000 federal
employees would be affected by the shut-
down after a half-day on the job Tuesday to
ll out time cards, put new messages on
their voice mail and similar chores.
Among those workers were some at the
National Institute of Healths famed hospi-
tal of last resort, where ofcials said no
new patients would be admitted for the dura-
tion of the shutdown. Dr. Francis Collins,
agency director, estimated that each week
the shutdown lasts will force the facility to
turn away about 200 patients, 30 of them
children, who want to enroll in studies of
experimental treatments. Patients already
at the hospital are permitted to stay.
Late Tuesday, House Republicans sought
swift passage of legislation aimed at
reopening small slices of the federal estab-
lishment. The bills covered the Department
of Veterans Affairs, the Park Service and a
portion of the Washington, D.C., govern-
ment funded with local tax revenue.
Democrats generally opposed all three,
saying Republicans shouldnt be permitted
to choose which agencies remain open and
which stay shut. As a result, all fell well
short of the two-thirds majority needed for
passage.
The White House also issued veto threats
against the bills, drawing a jab from
Michael Steel, a spokesman for Boehner.
Obama cant continue to complain about
the impact of the government shutdown on
veterans, visitors at National Parks, and
D.C. while vetoing bills to help them, he
said.
Several House Democrats used the occa-
sion to seek a vote on a standalone spend-
ing bill, a measure that Rep. Elizabeth Esty
of Connecticut said would end the tea party
shutdown. The requests were ruled out of
order.
Republican aides said all three bills that
were sidetracked could be brought up again
on Wednesday under rules requiring a mere
majority to pass. They said the House
might also vote on a measure to reopen the
hospital at the NIH, after several
Democrats cited the impact on patients.
Ironically, a major expansion of the
health care law the very event
Republicans had hoped to prevent was
unaffected as consumers ocked for the rst
time Tuesday to websites to shop for cover-
age sold by private companies.
The talk of joining the current ght
the Republicans are trying to sidetrack the
health care law by holding up funding for
the fiscal year that began at midnight
Monday to a dispute involving the
national debt limit suggested the shutdown
could go on for some time.
The administration says the ceiling must
be raised by mid-month, and Republicans
have long vowed to seek cuts in spending
at the same time, a condition Obama has
rejected.
In Washington, some Republicans con-
ceded privately they might bear the brunt of
any public anger over the shutdown and
seemed resigned to an eventual surrender in
their latest bruising struggle with Obama.
Democrats have all the leverage and
weve got none, said Sen. Saxby
Chambliss of Georgia.

OPINION 9
Disagree with
Measure P editorial
Editor,
I agree philosophically with your
editorial Yes on Measure P in the
Sept. 27 edition of the Daily Journal
especially the topic of trust, but:
The superintendent and four of the
trustees have lost my trust after
learning the specics of their plan
which was initially pitched to every-
one that this is for the good of our
education system. However, I am now
against the current plan in place.
This measure is not ready as there are
too many issues and questions.
Building a Taj Mahal (including a
planetarium) in Foster City while
window dressing San Mateo facilities
is one sided. Even the upgrade of dor-
mant Knolls makes no sense, which
will become a distraction requiring
possible redistricting other schools.
Bowditch was built in the 1970s
and is one of the newer facilities.
So why replace Bowditch with a Taj
Mahal while the older schools in San
Mateo get window dressing updates? I
do not consider this an equitable con-
sideration.
Solar: San Mateo Union High
School District has spent little to no
money on its solar installations. The
manufacturer paid for all installation
costs and also supplies power at a
greatly reduced price. Solar panels do
wear out. Will there be another bond
measure when that day comes?
Avery similar deal with computers.
Most large OEMs (Dell, HP, Apple,

7-Eleven must close
Editor,
Regarding the story San Mateo
Drive 7-Eleven robbed at knifepoint
in the Sept. 28 edition of the Daily
Journal, I was very vocal during the
meetings with both the Planning
Commission and City Council. I
warned that we did not want to end this
in tragedy. Thankfully, that has not
happened. Their attorneys said we were
grandstanding and called us racists.
Now approximately six months
later, we have an armed robbery, trash
all over our streets, huge parking
issues and dangerous trafc during
morning commute because of their
deliveries.
It is now a disgrace to our communi-
t y. Everything that we cautioned about
and they said would not happen has in
fact happened.
Its time for them to close before its
tragic.

W
ith three open seats on the
Belmont City Council and
two longtime councilmem-
bers opting out of running again,
there will soon be a new day for city
leadership.
And with six candidates running for
three seats, there are plenty of choic-
es. As has long been the case in
Belmont, there is interest in the race
after a controversy. In 2011, there
was the matter of eld usage at Koret
Field at Notre Dame de Namur
University and the councils decision
to restrict hours of usage. This time
around, there is the decision to not
allow Crystal Springs Uplands
School to expand with a middle
school on Davis Drive. Both issues
were contentious and the concerns,
which boiled down to noise and trafc
impact, were also allowed to boil over
into a less than productive process.
How a city council conducts itself and
how that translates into public per-
ception can have a chilling effect on
its success. Make no mistake,
Belmont is doing well. Its nances
are in order and several key planning
processes are in the works. Still, this
election is an opportunity for a breath
of fresh air and a more inclusive
approach to city business.
Of the candidates, incumbent
Warren Lieberman is a clear choice.
Having served on the council for two
terms, Lieberman is well-versed in the
city and its governance. Though
sometimes sidelined by the council
majority, Lieberman is analytical,
responsive and responsible. It will be
interesting to see how he develops
into the longest-tenured councilmem-
ber and the leadership that entails.
Another clear choice is Eric Reed. The
Daily Journal endorsed Reed in the
2011 election because he has a posi-
tive mindset and is determined to
work with the entire community. He
also has a rm grip on how the city
runs and will bring a key perspective
from his time on the Planning
Commission. He has a calm demeanor
and a refreshing strength of ideas and
accountability while seeking to avoid
what he terms, the nanny state.
Of the other candidates, Charles
Stone provides enthusiasm and a new
perspective. He is a relative newcom-
er to city politics and got involved
during the Crystal Springs Uplands
discussion. The citys demographic is
changing and there are more young
families who have felt as if they have
not been represented by the current
council. Avote for Stone will provide
that perspective. He also has a practi-
cal sensibility on how to approach
city issues both big and small and is
interested in rebuilding relationships
with leaders from other areas.
The other candidates, notably
Kristin Mercer, also brings much to
the table. Mercer has a keen knowl-
edge of city issues and has provided
service on the Planning Commission.
We would like to think Mercer will
continue to serve in that capacity and
provide her expertise as the city
explores changes to its downtown.
This is a transitional time for the
Belmont City Council and Lieberman,
Reed and Stone will provide the right
balance of openness, inclusion,
enthusiasm, experience and know-
how for the city.
Lieberman, Reed, Stone for Belmont City Council
Let us pray
P
atriotism is your conviction that this coun-
try is superior to all other countries because
you were born in it. George Bernard
Shaw.
Afew weeks ago, on Sept. 11, after watching members
of Congress gather on the steps to sing God Bless
America to commemorate the day, I was stunned by the
hypocrisy of it all. Why, I thought, would the God that
they believe has powers to bless us, consider us worthy
of blessing?
It seems that, as a nation, we like to think we have a
special connection to God and that she will bless us if we
ask. Never mind our actions. After all, we sing God
Bless America, and recite
under God in the pledge
whenever the occasion
arises, and our money pro-
fesses In God We Trust.
But whatever the connec-
tion, whatever the spiritu-
ality we might have at
one time demonstrated as a
nation, has been deled by
the actions of arrogant,
clueless and greedy little
men who are hell-bent on
accumulating as much
power and wealth for them-
selves as possible. Add
government leaders who aided and abetted the whole mess
by neglecting to investigate and regulate such activities
and we have the economic situation and government dys-
function that plagues us today.
These, and many others, have no doubt disturbed God
greatly. Consider the eight long years when we had a
president who believed he was sent by God to govern this
country and we all know how that turned out. Lately we
hear about politicians, though they profess to be men of
faith, carry on like they are exempt from any restraints
as they refuse to negotiate or compromise as required in a
democratic form of government.
So what is missing here? Start with integrity and
humility related to spirituality, or whatever it is, that
inhabits a persons psyche that makes him see life as an
opportunity to make the world a better place for all
instead of grabbing all of the power and prizes for him-
self. It is the kind of spirituality that is missing in the
aforementioned culprits a way of being that is demon-
strated by the life orientation of a person, whether reli-
gious or not. It encompasses responsibility, honesty,
compassion, decency and that all-important humility. No
matter how pious a person may profess to be, he is not
spiritual if he behaves selshly and/or unethically. Nor is
one who lives a cloistered, tightly closed existence, sur-
rounded by an invisible wall of righteousness.
Despite this countrys allegiance to God and all of the
professed church attendance, where is our spiritual core?
How many people delude themselves with a lot of talk,
comfort themselves with denial and ignore the truth
that our cultural spiritual compass is increasingly drawn
to and distorted by the magnetic eld of the corporate
world? Too many worship at the altar of corporate inter-
ests that exploit us for prot as we let them get away with
it. And while the wealthy, the narcissistic and even the
crude and depraved are idolized instead of those who are
thoughtful, erudite and prudent, we stray farther and far-
ther from any spiritual path.
So, what does God Bless America mean? If there were
a spiritual essence out there somewhere in the ether, I
would imagine she might be thinking something like,
Look, I gave you brains to use. If you have used them for
destructive instead of constructive purposes; if you are
out there grabbing all you can get while ignoring the sad
plight of so many; if you are so hung up on dogma that
your vision is cloudy; if the word hypocrite applies to
you; if you always mindlessly go along with the status
quo, dont expect miracles! My blessing is in the satis-
faction you feel when you do the right thing and the
peace of mind you experience when you act thoughtfully
and generously. As a nation, it would mean getting your
priorities in order so that liberty and justice for all
means something.
Woody Allen must have been thinking of times like
these when he quipped: More than any time in history,
mankind faces a crossroad. One path leads to despair and
utter hopelessness. The other is total extinction. Let us
pray that we have the wisdom to choose correctly. Are
we beyond the point of no return?
We must break our silence on those moral truths that
have not been eroded by time and social change. However
unsure we are of how to meld them with the particular cir-
cumstances of contemporary life, we must still speak out
for the major human values imbedded in our collective
conscience throughout our history: honesty, responsibil-
i t y, decency. Maxine Schnall, Limits.

Big movers
By Steve Rothwell
NEWYORK Investors stayed calm
on the rst day of a partial shutdown of
the U.S. government Tuesday and sent
the stock market modestly higher.
A long-running dispute in
Washington over President Barack
Obamas health care law caused a dead-
lock over the U.S. budget, forcing
about 800,000 federal workers off the
job and suspending all but essential
services. With the Republican-con-
trolled House of Representatives and
Democratic-controlled Senate locked
in a stalemate, it was unclear how long
a temporary bill needed to nance gov-
ernment activities would be stalled.
Despite the political rancor,
investors didnt push the panic button.
That suggests that, at least for now,
they arent anticipating that the stale-
mate will cause enough disruption in
the economy to threaten a gradual U.S.
recovery and a four-year bull run in the
stock market.
The trend of the economy appears
to be in a positive direction, said
Michael Sheldon, chief market strate-
gist at RDM Financial Group. Unless
this really gets ugly, we think the mar-
kets should start to look ahead to what
we believe should be better economic
data over the next six to 12 months.
In the latest encouraging news on
the economy, a private industry group
reported Tuesday that U.S. manufactur-
ing expanded at the fastest pace since
April 2011 last month on stronger
production and hiring.
The Dow Jones industrial average
rose 62.03 points, or 0.4 percent, to
15,191.70. The Standard & Poors 500
index gained 13.45 points, or 0.8 per-
cent, to 1,695.00. The Nasdaq com-
posite rose 46.50 points, or 1.2 per-
cent, to 3,817.98.
All ten sectors of the S&P 500 rose,
led by gains in health care and tech-
nology.
Merck helped lift the health care sec-
tor. The drugmakers stock rose $1.13,
or 2.4 percent, to $48.74 after it
announced plans to cut another 8,500
jobs as part of a plan to reduce its
annual costs by about $2.5 billion by
the end of 2015.
The technology sector was given a
boost by Apple, which gained $11. 21,
or 2.4 percent, to $487.90, after bil-
lionaire investor Carl Icahn tweeted
about his dinner meeting with Apples
CEO Tim Cook. Icahn, who said he has
invested $2 billion in Apple, is push-
ing for the company to spend $150
billion buying its own stock.
I feel very strongly that this should
be done, Icahn told CNBC in an inter-
view. Its a no-brainer.
The Apple board pledged in April to
spend $60 billion buying back its
stock through the end of 2015. About
$18 billion of that commitment had
been exhausted through June.
The S&P 500 index has fallen 2 per-
cent since climbing to a record on
Sept. 18, when the Federal Reserve
surprised investors by saying it would
continue with its economic stimulus.
The index has fallen seven out of eight
days leading up to the partial govern-
ment shutdown.
Were not jumping in with both feet
but were selectively putting money to
work, said Joseph Quinlan, chief mar-
ket strategist for U.S. Trust Bank of
America Private Wealth Management.
On the other side of the government
shutdown, youve got continued sup-
port from the Fed and a global econo-
my thats rebounding.
Markets rise despite shutdown
By Michael Liedtke
SAN FRANCISCO Activist
investor Carl Icahn is pressuring
Apple to spend $150 billion buying
back its own stock, a target that would
more than double the amount that the
companys board authorized in a previ-
ous attempt to placate frustrated share-
holders.
Icahn took to the Internet and the
TV airwaves Tuesday to make it clear
that he believes Apple Inc. isnt doing
nearly enough to boost its stock
price, which has fallen by 30 percent
from its peak in September 2012. The
slump has turned Apples stock into a
bargain, Icahn said on the financial
news channel CNBC, making it a
no-brainer for the maker of the
iPhone and iPad to pour more money
into its shares.
The Apple board
pledged in April to
spend $60 billion
buying back its
stock through the
end of 2015. About
$18 billion of that
commitment had
been exhausted
through June.
Icahn went public with his demands
after making his case with Apple CEO
Tim Cook in a Monday dinner hosted
at his New York apartment. The face-
to-face conversation came seven
weeks after Icahn, a billionaire who
has built his fortune by investing in
out-of-favor companies, disclosed that
he had bought a signicant stake in
Apple and signaled he would be cam-
paigning for changes.
Icahn wants Apple to spend
$150 billion buying its stock
Hyundai to defer
payments for federal workers
COSTAMESA Hyundai is offering
to defer new-car payments for 800,000
workers who have been furloughed due
to the partial U.S. government shut-
down.
The company says workers who buy
or lease cars this month wont have to
make payments until January. Those
who already own a Hyundai nanced
through the company wont have to
make payments until they go back to
work.
Hyundai won a lot of good publicity
four years ago when it offered U.S. cus-
tomers who lost their jobs the chance
to return their new cars for a refund.
The Hyundai Assurance program
boosted sales at a low point in the eco-
nomic downturn.
The automaker says the program for
government workers helps them at a
time they need it most.

CSM football looks to protect ball, perfect record
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
As the College of San Mateo football
team embarked on to Phase 2 of its 2013
plan, one goal remained unaccomplished
from Phase 1 and poured over to the current
stage: the turnover battle.
Yes, in three previous wins, the Bulldogs
were still superior in the turnover-margi n
category. But 11 turnovers in that span did
not sit well with head coach Bret Pollack
and his staff.
But in Saturdays 49-32 win over Modesto
College, it would appear the Bulldogs took
step one in checking that goal off their list.
You only turn the ball over once and you
run for 400 yards, youre not going to lose
very many games, Pollack said. Im good
with one. Youre going to screw up two
or below Im ne with, really. But, we were
four, four, three in the rst three games. So
the trend is where I want it to be. Its good to
see there was an effort to reduce those.
The turnover came early in the game
against the Pirates. And the more impres-
sive part was, instead of letting a fumble
affect the Bulldogs psychologically to the
point that they would fall back into a previ-
ous pattern, CSM focused and did not give
up the football again.
Defensively, they stayed their aggressive
selves, forcing two turnovers and more
debilitating to the Pirates, they turned them
into points.
I think the main thing was, the offensive
line was physical, Pollack said. They had
56 knockdowns. Thats a pretty high num-
ber considering we were at 34 or 30, so the
physicality is something that stood out to
me. Its something that I think we needed to
do.

OAKLAND Bartolo Colon never
expected to be pitching at age 40, not in the
playoffs, and especially not as the Game 1
starter.
And not this well a year after being sus-
pended 50 games for a positive testosterone
test.
The veteran right-hander will get the ball
for the Oakland Athletics in the opener of
their AL division series against Detroit on
Friday night, his rst postseason appear-
ance in eight years.
It means so much to me. Im 40 years old
and never thought Id be here, Colon said
in Spanish. It is more special, a lot. The
rst reason is because of
the Oakland organiza-
tion, and I thank them for
bringing me here to pitch
another time.

missed the playoffs for
the As while serving the
suspension, he won 18
games and is getting
another chance on base-
balls big stage in his first playoff
appearance since 2005 with the Angels.
The things hes done this year, we want
him to have another four, ve starts this
year, catcher Derek Norris said.
Everything he gets, he has deserved. Al ot
of us may have been a little upset about the
suspension, but he came in to spring train-
ing and he worked hard. It was noted that it
was done with, we wanted to move on. He
came in, worked his butt off, had one of his
best years since his Cy Young year with
L.A. and I dont even think any one of us in

It was a Peninsula Athletic League show-
down when the Half Moon Bay boys water
polo team traveled to San Mateo to face
Hillsdale Tuesday afternoon.
The Cougars came into the match 4-1 in
Ocean Division play, a game behind both
Mills and Hillsdale, who are 5-0. By the
time the nal horn sounded, the Knights
were another game clear of Half Moon Bay
in the standings, thanks to a 13-10 win.
It was a tough game, said Hillsdale
coach Ren Hodzic. [Half Moon Bay has] a
really good defense and theyre fast, so they
tested us.
Fortunately for Hodzic, his team was just
a little bit better defensively and just a
smidge faster. Actually, it was the Hillsdale
defense that jump-started its offense. And
that defense begins with goaltender
Anthony Pappas, who not only nished
with 15 saves, but also assisted on six of
the Knights goals.
Tony does a great job, Hodzic said.
Thomas Simons also played well in the
cage for Half Moon Bay, nishing with 14
blocks.
Also playing tough defensively for the
Knights was Javier Rosas. Known more as
an offensive player, it was Rosas defense
especially in the third period that held
the Cougars at bay. Several times Half
Moon Bay appeared to have a breakaway
and each time Rosas came out of know
where to thwart the attack.
Once we got up a couple of goals, we
kinda put him (Rosas) in the back (defen-
sively), Hodzic said. That was one of the
best performances Ive ever seen from
Javvy.
Half Moon Bay coach Justin Ferdinand
said those failed opportunities did in his
team.

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)

Terra Nova volleyball holds off Mills in five games
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
From the looks of Terra Nova and
Mills respective volleyball teams
postgame powwows yesterday, it
seemed the outcome was the oppo-
site of what it actually was.
Terra Nova won a ve-set thriller
at Mills 25-17, 25-15, 19-25,
16-25, 15-12 but despite the
score, Mills was all smiles follow-
ing the loss, while Terra Nova head
coach Craig Dillie was admittedly
upset with his teams performance.
The Tigers went up early with con-
vincing wins in the rst two games,
hitting the court with authority that
proved too fast and too strong from
the young Vikings squad. After Terra
Nova subbed in some bench players
in Game 3 though, Mills caught a
spark of momentum and almost
pulled off the comeback of the year.
The girls stopped moving their
feet, Dillie said. They thought it
would be an easy third game. They
thought it would be easier than it
was.
Terra Nova junior Ali Vidali was
consistently outstanding through-
out, tabbing a match-high 30 kills.
But the third-year varsity starter
moved to the backline in the pivotal
Game 3, and despite reliable digs in
an unfamiliar role, Terra Nova could
not slam the door Mills.
The Vikings were noticeably
lackadaisical early on, totaling just
four service points in Game 1. In
Game 2 though, middle hitter
Pricilla Young provided a much-
needed spark. Young totaled 18
match kills, and dazzled at net with
eight blocks.
In the decisive Game 5, the lead
changed hands ve times, with
Mills taking a late lead 12-11 after a
net violation by Terra Nova. The
Tigers responded with four straight
points though, including Vidali
hammering a kill through the mid-
dle to give her team a 13-12 lead,
before she ultimately scored the
match point by nessing a lob over
Mills front row to end it.
Even with Mills taking two
games, the young squad couldnt
seem to avoid volleying to Terra
Novas best player, Vidali.
Theyre learning how to read the
game still, Mills head coach Polly
Wiard said. I have sophomores on
the court [along with one junior and
one senior]. I think with more
experience you nd your ability to
play, and you have the condence
to do it.
Despite featuring a solid starting
eight, Mills is still trying to nd
the right chemistry. Wiard used 12
players yesterday. The match was
the rst ve-game performance of
the season for Terra Nova.
Other Ocean action
Sequoia (3-0, 11-4) downed
Jefferson (0-3) in straight sets 25-
5, 25-7, 25-11. With Cherokees
senior Joy Robinson still out of
action with a hamstring injury, her
younger sister Leanne Robinson
stepped up with a match-high 10
kills. Junior setter Angela Hudelson
had 25 assists and four aces.
Westmoor (2-1, 11-10) swept
Capuchino (1-2, 4-6) 25-16, 25-
11, 25-21. Rams senior Michelle
Kong had a match-high 10 kills,
and junior Roni Nievera notched 17
assists. Westmoor is coming off a
rough outing at Saturdays
Cupertino tournament, in which the
Rams posted a 1-4 record. Earlier in
the season, they had strong show-
ings in a pair of tourneys, posting a
3-1 record at the NorCal
Tournament, and a 3-2 record at the
Carmichael Tournament.
We just played in the Cupertino
Tournament and it kind of hum-
bled us, Westmoor head coach Rex
Mauga-Head said. So hopefully
that will motivate us for the rest of
the season.
Half Moon Bay (3-0, 7-6)
remained unbeaten in league, edging
El Camino (0-3, 0-4) in straight sets
28-26, 25-23, 25-20. In Game 1,
the Cougars trailed by eight, but ral-
lied back behind the net play of sen-
ior McKenna Crofton. Freshman
Hailey Merkes paced Half Moon
Bay with 13 kills and 15 digs.
Bay Division results
Carlmont (3-0, 10-5) downed
Burlingame (1-2, 9-6) in four sets
25-15, 21-25, 25-18, 25-17. Scots
senior Ella McDonough paced her
team with 14 kills, while senior
Amelia Tupou tallied 38 assists and
16 digs. Sophomore Alexis Morrow
had career highs in kills (8) and
blocks (10).
I thought we played really, said
Carlmont coach Chris Crader.
Menlo-Atherton (3-0, 9-3)
remained unbeaten in league, sweep-
ing South San Francisco 25-13,
25-14, 25-22. M-A senior Pauli
King tabbed 12 match kills, while
Kirby Knapp totaled 24 assists.
KARA MCGEE
Terra Nova junior Ali Vidali rose to
the occasion,totaling 30 match kills
in Terra Novas ve-set win at Mills.

NEW YORK Major League Baseballs average atten-
dance fell 1.2 percent this year, with the Miami Marlins
and Philadelphia Phillies experiencing big drops.
The average was 30,514, down from 30,895 last year and
the peak of 32,785 in 2007. Total attendance of 74.03 mil-
lion was down from 74.86 million last season but was the
sports sixth-highest.
There were 37 postponements this year, up from 21 in
2012.
After the challenges posed by poor weather early in the
season, our game showed its resiliency with a terric sec-
ond half, commissioner Bud Selig said.
After cutting payroll ahead of their second season in a
downtown ballpark, the Marlins went 62-100 and experi-
enced a 29 percent drop in home attendance, from 2.2 mil-
lion to 1.6 million. The Phillies were 73-89 in their poor-
est season since 2000 and watched home attendance fall
from 3.57 million to just over 3 million.
Milwaukee fell from 2.8 million to 2.5 million in a sea-
son when NL MVP Ryan Braun was suspended for the nal
65 games after admitting he used banned performance-
enhancing drugs. Minnesota (66-96) dropped by 298,000
and Texas by 282,000.
Toronto rose 437,000 to 2.5 million after acquiring Jose
Reyes, Mark Buehrle and R.A. Dickey. The resurgent Los
Angeles Dodgers climbed by 419,000 and led the major
leagues at 3.7 million. Washington went up by 281,000,
Baltimore by 255,000 and Cincinnati by 187,000.
MLB attendance
drops 1.2 percent
We just missed a lot of advanta-
geous opportunities that then became
opportunities the other way,
Ferdinand said.
All told, the Hillsdales defense came
away with 19 steals, while the Cougars
committed seven turnovers.
The match started well for Half Moon
Bay (4-2 PAL Ocean), as the Cougars
scored on their rst two shots of the
game to take a quick 2-0 lead less than
a minute and a half into the contest.
Jackson Crane fed Dylan Cummings
for a power-play goal at the 6:21-mark
of the rst period and Crane gave the
Cougars a 2-0 less than 40 seconds
later when he took a pass from Simons
and buried a shot on a counterattack.
Despite the quick decit, Hodzic said
his team never panicked.
One, it was pretty early (in the
match) and my guys are pretty con-
dent, Hodzic said. Its not the rst
time its happened. We knew if we
stayed the course, its going to even
out.
Hillsdale (6-0) responded about 30
seconds later with its rst goal. From
the left wing, Erik Rudberg dumped a
pass into the path of a driving Brandon
Clore, who beat two defenders to the
ball and slipped a shot past the goal-
tender to cut the Half Moon Bay lead to
2-1.
The Cougars got the goal back on a
score from Garrett Kern, but the
Knights answered with three unan-
swered goals to take the lead for good,
4-3, after one period of play.
Kevin Hoffert scored the nal two
goals of the period for Hillsdale and
nished with a team-high six.
He did a good job of stepping up,
Hodzic said. Hes shown the ability to
do that all year. We really havent
seen anyone in the league who can
match up with him.
Hoffert scored his third goal in a row
to start the second period and stretch
the Knights lead to 5-3, but another
goal from Half Moon Bays Cummings
again cut the Hillsdale lead to one, 5-4.
Hillsdale, however, went on to score
four more goals in the period a pair
each from Rosas and Rudberg t o
lead 9-6 at halftime.
The third period was a defensive
struggle as the teams combined to
score only three times. Hillsdale
played smothering defense in the
third, holding the Cougars to just two
shots, only one of which was on
frame.
In the fourth period with Half Moon
Bay applying pressure, the Cougars
outscored the Knights 3-2, but it was
too little, too late for Half Moon Bay.
Despite the loss, Ferdinand was
pleased with his teams effort.
To play at this level, you have to be
consistent for four quarters and we were
consistent for three, Ferdinand said.
But we never quit. Were going to
keep going.

KNIGHTS
By Antonio Gonzalez
STANFORD The feeling of
disappointment and despair in the
locker room after losing 17-13 at
Washington last season is some-
thing Stanford players will never
forget.
What hap-
pened on the
field is even
more painful to
recall.
The offense
has undergone a
m a j o r
makeover under
q u a r t e r b a c k
Kevin Hogan
since that set-
back in Seattle, and players and
coaches believe it will make all
the difference when the fifth-
ranked Cardinal (4-0, 2-0) host the
No. 15 Huskies (4-0, 1-0) in a crit-
ical Pac-12 North showdown
Saturday night.
Kevins mobility changes
things, Stanford coach David
Shaw said Tuesday. He allows us
to be a much more diverse
offense.
A year ago, Stanford failed to
score an offensive touchdown
against Washington. Former quar-
terback Josh Nunes completed 18
of 37 passes for 170 yards and an
interception, often throwing at
the feet of receivers or misring
completely. The Cardinal, who ran
for a school-record 446 yards in a
65-21 win over Washington in
2011, were held to 65 yards on the
ground.
Denitely not an experience I
want to have again, left tackle
Andrus Peat said.
Hogan saw his rst action in
that loss, carrying the ball once
for 5 yards on a read-option keep-
er. This time, he wont be as much
of a spectator.
Hogan is 9-0 as a starter since
taking over for Nunes. He has
completed 63 percent of his pass-
es for 832 yards and 10 touch-
downs with three interceptions
this season. He also is the teams
third-leading rusher with 124
yards.
Stanford, known best for its
power running game, has shifted
its passing attack from short and
intermediate throws to tight ends
to going deep to wide receivers
who are increasingly creating sep-
aration.
Hogan threw for 286 yards and
three touchdowns in a 55-17 vic-
tory last week against Washington
State, showing just how far the
offense has progressed on that
same Seattle eld in a years time.
He found Devon Cajuste for touch-
downs of 57 and 33 yards in the
rst half and hit Michael Rector
on a 45-yard TD in the third quar-
ter.
Its something that you need to
be able to prove to a defense
before they start to respect that.
With the run game that weve
shown in previous years, we
havent had that type of passing
game, said wide receiver Ty
Montgomery, who leads the team
with 20 receptions for 327 yards
and four TDs.
The Huskies, under first-year
defensive coordinator Justin
Wilcox last season, also caught
the Cardinal off guard. Shaw said
Washingtons defense did some
different things against us that
they hadnt shown before and
Stanford failed to make the proper
adjustments during the game. He
declined to discuss specics.
They did a great job against the
run, Shaw said, and we didnt
make them pay for it with the
pass.
The Cardinal can still take some
positives out of last years game.
They sacked mobile quarterback
Keith Price three times and tallied
seven tackles for a loss, though
Washington was dealing with sev-
eral injuries to its offensive line,
which has since been rebuilt. Trent
Murphy also returned an intercep-
tion 40 yards for a touchdown to
help Stanford take a 13-3 lead late
in the third quarter.
The defense has dominated most
of its opponents since and it
hasnt crumbled late like it did
against the Huskies when Kasen
Williams caught a 35-yard touch-
down pass from Price with 4:53
remaining for the winning score.
Were older, wiser I think at dif-
ferent positions, Shaw said. The
same guys I think are just better
than they were a year ago. Just
older and a year wiser, hopefully.
NOTES: All-American OL David
Yankey, who missed last weeks
game to attend to a family situa-
tion, was back practicing with the
team Tuesday night. Shaw said
Yankey will start Saturday at left
guard. ... Shaw said he was sad to
hear Lane Kiffin was fired by
Southern California and expected
the coach to land on his feet.
Jokingly told he was reportedly
on USCs short list of coaching
candidates, Shaw said: It might
be short, but its one person too
long. ... Starting DE Henry
Anderson (knee) is expected to
walk without crutches this week.
Shaw said Anderson is still at least
3-4 weeks from returning. ... Shaw
said RB Barry Sanders, son of the
Hall of Famer with the same name,
will continue to have a role each
game.

Whitner may start his own cloth-
ing line if he continues to get
flagged for
u n n e c e s s a r y
roughness.
The San
F r a n c i s c o
strong safety
learned Tuesday
he was being
fined $21,000
for his hit on
St. Louis Rams
wide receiver
Chris Givens in the end zone with
just under six minutes to play in
Thursdays 35-11 49ers victory.
Whitner said he would appeal
the penalty and has made up T-
shirts with (hashtag)LegalHitner
on the front that he will sell to
drum up support. Hes even sug-
gested he might remove the W
from his last name.
In my mind that hit was legal,
Whitner said. I lowered my shoul-
der and went for the midsection,
where the ball was.
Whitner appeared to turn his
shoulder into Givens in a success-
ful attempt to knock the ball
loose. He was called for unneces-
sary roughness when he appeared
to make contact with Givens hel-
met.
Im not happy with it,
Whitner said. The intent is not
there. Maybe we should all put
ags on and pull them off. Maybe
the fans will like that.
The Rams scored on the next
play.
The game is changing,
Whitner said. If the coaching
staff thinks it was a legal hit,
theres nothing I can do except
appeal it. The guy who was hit said
it was a legal hit. I dont know
what else I can do.
Whitner faced a similar situation
against the Indianapolis Colts. He
was agged for unsportsmanlike
conduct after hitting Colts run-
ning back Ahmad Bradshaw with
what seemed to be the crown of his
helmet.
Replays showed that Whitner
hit Bradshaw with his shoulder, so
the penalty was rescinded and no
further action was taken.
Its a different story this time
around.
It seems like on any big hit,
they make the call on what the hit
looks like, Whitner said. I dont
duck my helmet. I could have ran
through the guy. Lets get Instant
Replay, and get these things
reversed on the eld.
Whitner, who said he was ned
during his rookie season with the
Buffalo Bills in 2006, wants to get
the word out regarding what he
considers improper assessment of
the new rule protecting defense-
less wide receivers. He said hes
produced about 125 T-shirts and
will soon open for business.
The former rst-round draft pick
intercepted a Sam Bradford pass in
the end zone late in the second
quarter and finished with three
tackles, one for a loss, and two
passes defended.
NOTES: WR Jon Baldwin was
active for the rst time and caught
a pair of passes against the Rams.
You never know when youre
going to get the opportunity and
you have to make the most when
you do get the opportunity, said
Baldwin, who was acquired in a
trade with the Kansas City Chiefs.
Jons father Jeffrey Baldwin was a
defensive lineman for the
University of Pittsburgh and was
teammates with Tony Dorsett for
one year. ... FB Bruce Miller is
getting more comfortable as a
receiver. Hes caught eight passes
through four games. He entered the
year with 25 career receptions.
Coming over from defense I am
amazed at how everyone has to be
in unison on offense. We put some
things together, he said. ... The
49ers waived QB B.J. Daniels and
FB Owen Marecic. LB Jermaine
Cunningham was signed to a one-
year deal.

Hillsdale girls tennis coach
Jackie Nachtigall has had some
quality players during her time
with the Knights.
Just never enough of them at the
same time until this year. The
Knights have arguably the
strongest singles players on the
Peninsula and it has shown as
Hillsdale improved to 5-0 in the
Peninsula Athletic League Bay
Division standings following a 5-
2 win over Half Moon Bay
Tuesday.
Despite not being at full
strength, the Knights still had
enough to get past the Cougars.
Nachtigall was especially pleased
with the performance of Kathy Li,
who moved from her spot in No. 3
doubles to play at No. 4 singles.
The Knights were without No. 2
singles player Natalie Spievack
and half of the No. 1 doubles team
in Hannah Bodin.
Only a freshman who didnt start
playing tennis until seventh
grade, Li made her second singles
start for the Knights and pulled out
a 2-6, 7-5, (10-6) win over Half
Moon Bays Cali Conklin.
Nachtigall expects to have her
full starting lineup for
Wednesdays showdown with
Carlmont, which also improved to
5-0 in Bay Division play follow-
ing a 6-1 win over Menlo-
Atherton.
The Knights four singles play-
ers Cindy Liu, Spievack,
Mariko Iinuma and Irene Palisoc
have yet to lose a match in PAL
play this season and are a big rea-
son for the Knights success.
Liu returned to the team this sea-
son following a one-year hiatus
after finally gave in to
Nachtigalls prodding over the
summer to return this season.
During the summer, she told me
she was coming back, Nachtigall
said, adding Liu told her she was
encouraged by the coachs perse-
verance in getting her to rejoin
the team.
The other big get for the
Knights was Spievack, a senior
who had never played for the high
school team, but was an accom-
plished junior player on the tour-
nament circuit.
She and her father practiced
here (at Hillsdale) every Sunday
for three years, Nachtigall said.
After talking with Spievack on
several occasions, she convinced
her to join the Knights as well.
I want to give these girls a high
school memory, Nachtigall said.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime
chance.
The Knights, which have domi-
nated the Ocean Division for
years, but always struggles when
they move up the Bay, have a
chance to win a Bay Division title
for the rst time in a long time. A
win over Carlmont today would
put them in line to do just that.
San Mateo 4, Burlingame 3
In other PAL action, San Mateo
pulled off the upset of the day by
beating Burlingame 4-3. It is the
first San Mateo win over
Burlingame in recent memory.
The Bearcats won three of the
four singles matches and the No. 1
doubles match to clinch the victo-
ry. The match was decided at No. 2
singles, where San Mateos
Michele Kwon held off Sarah
Sinatra in three sets, 6-2, 5-7, 7-
5.
It was the only three-set match
of the day. Kwon battled through
blisters and needed a medical time-
out but persevered to give the
Bearcats the victory.
Other San Mateo winners were:
Lizzie Siegle (No. 1 singles) and
Lindsay Pantuso (No. 3 singles).
Burlingame was without its No.
1 singles player, Alex Harrigan.
Carlmont 6,
Menlo-Atherton 1
The Scots had an easy time
against the Bears, sweeping the
four singles spots and taking two
of three doubles matches.
Cori Sidel had the easiest match
of the day for Carlmont, winning
at love at No. 1 singles. The No. 1
doubles tram of Cassidy Sobey and
Morgan Watson needed three set to
win their match. After dropping
the rst set 4-6, they rebounded to
win the next two, 6-3, 6-3.
M-As win came at No. 3 doubles
where Camilla Calasini and Julia
Chang won 6-3, 7-5.
Menlo School 7,
Crystal Springs 0
The Knights opened West Bay
Athletic League play with an easy
win over the Gryphons.
Menlo did not lose a set as it
improved its record to 10-1 over-
all.

The CSM men finished fifth at
Crystal Springs despite missing their
No. 2 runner in former Carlmont run-
ner Matthew Rouse. Currently, the
Bulldog men are ranked eighth in
northern California.
Anthony Cortes finished fourth
overall with a 22:06. He improved his
Crystal Springs time by almost two
minutes over his best freshman year
performance.
I think hes in much better shape
this year, said CSM head coach Joe
Mangan. I think hes really starting
to think, Im really going to do it this
year. His training is going good. His
condence is pretty good. He trained
pretty hard over the summer for it. And
thats what we like to see out of a sec-
ond-year athlete.
Francisco Vargas improved his
Crystal Springs time by 30 seconds.
He nished 15th. Rory Lynagh-Shann
nished just outside the top 50 (51st).
Mangan said the mens team will get
a major boost once Rouse returns next
week. Additionally, reinforcements are
coming from the Great Northwest via
Washingtons Kenyon Butler who
nished second in the state running
the 800 meters last year.
On the womens side, a solid effort
was squandered since CSM currently
lacks a fifth girl. For that season,
despite nished four runners in the top
21 (and in the top seven if you only
count the Coast Conference runners),
the Bulldogs nished outside the team
scoring.
Mei-Lin Okino led the charge in her
rst race as a Bulldog with a 20:02.
She can run a lot better, Mangan
said. But what I liked about it was, I
said I think you went out to hard. She
said coach, I wanted to go out hard
because thats what Im going to have
to do anyway (in the future). And
sometimes thats a good way to do it.
In the championship races, youre
going to have to go out hard. So, I
think that was a smart thing. Her train-
ing has been ramping up. Its taken her
a while to nd her stride, and as she
told me, Joe, I think I nally found
my rhythm.
Megan Guillermo was 11th with a
20:07. Alejandra Marin and Jordan
Chase both nished in under 21 min-
utes, too.
CSM WATER POLO
The results simply werent there last
week for the CSM womens water polo
team.
And that 1-3 stretch of play can be
traced to two things: turnovers and
missed shots.
Its just not going to get it done
against the good teams, said CSM
head coach Randy Wright. Now, its
not a back to the drawing board by any
means, but there has to a pride of own-
ership in holding the ball, shooting
the ball. I like what I saw, but at th
same time, you dont like seeing all
those lost opportunities.
The Bulldogs lost three straight
before picking up a 13-6 win over
Ohlone at the Cabrillo College tourna-
ment. In all three losses, CSM had dou-
ble-digit turnovers and missed shots.
Its a statistic Wright said his team
would like to keep under 20. Right
now, the Bulldogs are around 24 to as
high as 39.
:Were in the range of youre going
to lose, Wright said. Youre going
to lose close games if youre in that
range. It is concerning. Lack of game
experience increases anxiety. We de-
nitely have the pieces, but clearly
there are some fundamental issues that
need to be resolved. There is no simple
answer.
With a 3-6 record, early realities are
settling in. Last year, the Bulldogs
made the postseason as a Coast
Conference wild card winner. The early
struggles of this season suggest that
wont be the case this season.
We are probably not going to be a
wild card, Wright said. Anytime you
start have to count on another teams
success, you better start changing your
tactics. So were denitely looking
forward to our conference schedule to
start in a week. I still like our teams
chances. Were kind of grinding this
week.
Wright also announced Tuesday that
the College of San Mateo will host the
Northern California championships in
six weeks.
COLTS
total offense for CSM 124 of which came from DJ
Peluso (El Camino) and another 120 from quarterback
Casey Wishman.
Saturday also allowed CSM to show a bit of depth on the
offensive slot position. With premiere players like Quincy
Nelson and Robert Johnson (Carlmont) out, Jared Puamau
and Michael Latu (San Mateo) saw increased playing time.
The two combined for 166 yards.
Thats why its a team, Pollack said. When someone
is down, the others have to step up. Injuries are going to
happen as you get farther into the season and thats why
its the best team. Thats why you have 65 guys on the ros-
ter.
CSM has one more test before they hit a bye week and
head toward the gauntlet that is the the NorCal Conference.
On Saturday, theyll travel to Stockton and face San
Joaquin Delta a team that is 1-3 on the year. While the
record does not sound like much, Delta has played some
really tough opposition.
I never play that game, Pollack said when asked if this
was one of those games where you shouldnt rely on statis-
tics to dictate how you prepare for your opponent. I just
look at their players, look at their coaching and it is what
it is. Theyre starting a lot of young guys that are rst-time
starters thats why theyre experiencing a lot of ups and
downs. They have good players, they have good coaches. I
try not to surmise anything because its all speculation.
Im not very good at speculating or Id be in the stock mar-
ket and not coaching football.
The money is on Delta handing the ball often to Theo
Wifford, their most consistent offensive player. Wifford, a
running back, has rushed for 393 yards and has four touch-
downs to his name.
On the outside, Pollack called William Ma and TJ
Brown a pair of dangerous outside threats.
Delta is currently working with a couple of quarterbacks
who could both see action on Saturday. Jeremy Mata is the
more accurate of the two although Cody Weinzheimer has
almost as many passing yards.
Were familiar with them, Pollack said. We played
them last year so there is no longer an unknown element
with Delta.
Pollack said the Delta defense boasts a couple of dynam-
ic players. Their linebacking core is having a nice season.
Jamie Christopherson, Adrian Ramos and Dashaun Perkins
have combined for 116 tackles including nine for loss. On
the defensive line, keep an eye out for Nathan Didonato
who has four sacks and eight tackles for loss.
Were going to have to play hard and harder than we did
play, Pollack said. We raised the bar with playing hard
and because we raised the bar, we fell short (against
Modesto). So, we have to remind them.
Kickoff for Delta versus CSM is scheduled for 1 p.m. on
Saturday in Stockton.
CSM
in his third start since coming off the dis-
abled list last month. Cueto gave up four
runs in 3 1-3 innings and appeared rattled
by a raucous ballpark that taunted him
throughout by chanting his name.
Byrd, acquired by the Pirates in late
August from the New York Mets, celebrated
the rst postseason at bat of his 12-year
career 1,250 games by sending
Cuetos fastball into the seats to give the
Pirates the lead. The shot sent another jolt
through an already electric crowd, which
began singing Cue-to, Cue-to in unison
when Martin stepped in.
Martin sent a drive into the bleachers in
left eld. The Reds never recovered, ending
a 90-win season with a six-game losing
streak.
Three of those losses came against
Pittsburgh at Cincinnati in the nal series
of the season that determined the site of the
win-or-die game.
Cincinnati manager Dusty Baker backed
Cueto before the game, saying his ace
thrives on this environment. Maybe, but
the right-hander never looked comfortable
in front of the largest crowd in PNC Park
history, a place where Cueto has dominated.
Cueto, who came in 8-2 at the ballpark by
the Allegheny River, even lost his grip on
the ball while standing on the mound.
A moment later, he lost his grip on the
game.
Martins 405-foot shot to left-center gave
Pittsburgh a 2-0 lead and all the momentum
Liriano would require.
Signed on the cheap in the offseason after
a mediocre 2012 split between the
Minnesota Twins and the Chicago White
Sox, Liriano has been reborn in Pittsburgh.
He went 16-8 with a 3.02 ERA during the
regular season, his devastating slider nearly
unhittable against left-handers.
The Reds proved no match. Joey Votto
went 0 for 4 with two strikeouts. Jay Bruce
produced an RBI single in the fourth but
Cincinnati never really threatened on a
night baseball officially returned to
Pittsburgh after a 20-year trek through pur-
gatory.
Shin-Soo Choo homered in the eighth, a
drive to right eld that was upheld by video
review.
Pittsburghs 94-win regular season
reignited a relationship sullied by years of
mismanagement and miserable play.

was sorry and he apologized, and he came
back and he earned back his respect
throughout baseball and through all of us.
Manager Bob Melvin made the announce-
ment before a workout Tuesday at the
Coliseum, where the grounds crew worked
to prepare the eld two days after the NFLs
Oakland Raiders played a home game.
Ah, its an easy one, hes been our ace all
season, Melvin said of Colon. We have
that veteran presence thats going to lead us
off we didnt have last year.
It sure has been $3 million well spent by
general manager Billy Beane, who gave
Colon another chance in 2013.
Eight months ago, Colon apologized to
his teammates at the start of spring train-
ing, put his head down and went back to
work.
He felt like he needed to do that, and he
got it out of the way early and has been an
integral part since, Melvin said. It really
has felt like since hes been here that he
hasnt missed a beat and hes been here the
whole time. Very disappointing for him to
miss the end of last year for the reasons that
have been documented, but hes done every-
thing that he can to be the teammate that he
is again. It feels like he was never gone.
Colon went 18-6 with a 2.65 ERA in 30
starts and 190 1-3 innings. He became an
All-Star in his best season since his 21-8
Cy Young Award season of 05. He might
have a couple more wins had he not spent a
stint on the disabled list with a strained
groin.
You could tell how it affected him last
year and how he missed out on a chance to
be a part of what we did down the stretch,
reliever Sean Doolittle said. To have a vet-
eran presence like that in your rotation, a
rotation full of young guys, taking the ball
every fth day and you know hes going to
go into the sixth or seventh inning, when-
ever he pitches, under whatever circum-
stances, its almost like you know what
youre going to get out of him. Hes been a
really good stabilizer for us all year long.
The Game 2 starter for the AL West cham-
pions is rookie Sonny Gray, who will pitch
in a ballpark he knows well with the home
crowd behind him Saturday night.
A.J. Grifn, a 14-game winner, is out with
elbow tendinitis that has become worse as
he has tried to pitch with the problem. He
could be added to the roster for the next
round if the As advance. Jarrod Parker will
pitch Game 3 in Detroit and Dan Straily
goes in a potential Game 4.
They made the decision, Grifn said.
Its a bummer. Hopefully I can bounce back
from this in the next week or so and be ready
for the next round.
Left elder Yoenis Cespedes said his trou-
blesome right shoulder has improved not a
lot but some, and he joked he will play the
outeld even if I have to throw left-hand-
ed. Cespedes didnt play the final two
games of the season at Seattle, and could be
used as designated hitter if the shoulder isnt
ready.
We just want to make sure hes healthy,
Melvin said. At the very least, hell be DH-
ing.
For Colon, this year will be far from his
last as long as he can keep pitching. Then,
he will return to New Jersey full-time with
his wife and four children.
As long as I can and my body lets me,
he said. One year at a time.
Colon notes he has no idea what Id be
doing if he werent on a pitching mound.
And, he doesnt have to be. All of that will
come later.
Right now Im not thinking about it,
Colon said. This is my job.
Athletics: A year after surprising almost everyone
with a torrid nish to win the AL West title, the low-
budget As repeated as division champs under
Melvin over high-priced Texas and the Los Angeles
Angels. ... Oakland (96-66) was consistent all season,
becoming the only team to post a winning record
each month, capped by a 19-8 September. ...The As
found their power stroke in the second half, led by
Moss and Crisp. Oakland hit a major league-leading
88 HRs after the All-Star break, including 74 over the
nal 49 games. ...The As got strong pitching all year,
with ve 10-game winners in the rotation and a deep
bullpen. ... Colon is expected to pitch Game 1 after
missing the playoffs last year due to a drug suspen-
sion. ...The As held opponents to an AL-low .299 OBP
their best mark since 1972.They allowed an AL-
low 428 walks with an Oakland-record 1,183 Ks. ...
With the high strikeout total and a staff that allowed
the fewest groundballs in the majors, the As set a
record for fewest assists in a non-strike season with
1,377.That doesnt mean they were poor defensively
they led the AL in percentage of balls in play
turned into outs.
Tigers: Detroit (93-69) won the AL Central by one game
over Cleveland,but that slim margin was deceiving.The
Tigers were in control from mid-August on....Martinez
hit .361 after the All-Star break and Fielder batted .337
in September. ... The bullpen was a work in progress
early, but Benoit has performed well as the closer, and
Smyly has been terric for the most part. Hard-throw-
ing right-hander Bruce Rondon is unlikely to pitch
because of elbow problems. ... Scherzer was baseballs
lone 20-game winner, and the Tigers look to have the
same excellent depth in their rotation as they did when
they won the AL pennant last year. ... Detroit manager
Jim Leyland is making his eighth postseason appear-
ance.He is 39-34 in postseason games....The Tigers lost
to Texas in the 2011 AL championship series and were
swept by San Francisco in last years World Series.They
have not won the World Series since 1984.

FOOD
By Sara Moulton
When I was in high school, my mom
and I threw all kinds of dinner parties.
OK, she threw the parties and I
helped with the cooking. Our go-to
entree was veal scaloppini. I liked it
no matter how we cooked it. At the
time it seemed so fancy. Now I realize
that it was all about the sauce. In its
velvety blandness, veal really is little
more than an excuse for sauce, a cake
in search of frosting.
This recipe substitutes pork chops
for veal. A generation ago, this
switcheroo wouldnt have worked; the
chops would have been too rich and
fatty. But modern-day engineering has
turned pork chops into that other
white meat. They have very little fat
and, consequently, very little avor.
Fat is a conductor of avor, as well as a
provider of moisture.
Accordingly, one of todays stan-
dard-issue supermarket pork chops is
nearly as suitable as veal as a vehicle
for sauce and its cheaper, too.
Fine, you say, but isnt it going to
take me a ton of time and effort to
make a good sauce? Not necessarily.
There are, of course, a world of sauces
to choose from, and many of them are
indeed big productions. But pan
sauces, as I discovered during my
restaurant days, are speedy to make,
and thats what this recipe calls for.
SAUTEED PORK CHOPS AND
GRAPES WITH MUSTARD SAUCE
Start to nish: 25 minutes
Servings: 4
Four 1/2-inch-thick boneless pork
chops (about 1 pound total), trimmed
of any fat
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
Wondra our, for dredging the pork
chops
1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1/4 cup nely chopped yellow onion
1 cup seedless red or green grapes,
halved
1/4 cup dry white wine
3/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon packed dark brown
sugar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Season the pork chops on both sides
with salt and pepper. One at a time, dip
the pork chops in the our, coating
them well on both sides, but shaking
off the excess.
In a large skillet over medium-high,
heat 1 tablespoon of the oil. Add the
chops to the pan and cook until light-
ly browned on the rst side, about 2
minutes. Add the remaining oil to the
skillet, turn the chops and cook for 1
minute on the second side. Transfer
them to a plate and cover loosely with
foil.
Add the onion and grapes to the skil-
let, reduce the heat to medium-low and
cook, stirring often, until the onions
are golden brown, about 3 to 4 min-
utes. Increase the heat to high, add the
wine and bring to a boil. Simmer, stir-
ring, until the wine is reduced to 1
tablespoon. Add the stock and sugar
and simmer until the broth is reduced
by half.
Reduce the heat to medium-low,
return the pork to the skillet, along
with any juices that have accumulated
on the plate and simmer very gently,
turning the pork several times, for 1
minute. Transfer each pork chop to a
serving plate. Add the mustard to the
sauce, whisking, then season with
salt and pepper. Pour the sauce evenly
over each portion and serve right
away.

McDonalds to offer
salad, fruit as side
By Candice Choi
NEWYORK Want a side salad with that Big Mac?
McDonalds says it will start giving customers the choice
of a salad, fruit or vegetable as a substitute for french fries
in its value meals.
McDonalds Corp. will roll out the change early next year
in the U.S., where people will be able to pick a salad instead
of fries at no extra cost. McDonalds says it already lets cus-
tomers make such swaps in some countries, such as France.
But now it says it now work to make the options available
in 20 of its biggest markets around the world, which repre-
sent 85 percent of sales. McDonalds, which has more than
34,000 locations around the world, said the change will be
in place in 30 to 50 percent of the areas within the next
three years and 100 percent the regions by 2020.
The worlds biggest hamburger chain made the announce-
ment at the Clinton Global Initiative in New York City,
where CEO Don Thompson made an appearance on stage
with former President Bill Clinton.
In an interview before the announcement, Thompson said
McDonalds is looking at developing other healthy sides
that will appeal to customers. He noted that the company
could also take the fruits and vegetables it offers in other
parts of the world, such as cups of corn and kiwi on a stick,
and make them more widely available.
What is it that customers will choose, and what will they
eat? Thompson said. What we dont want to do is just put
something on the menu and say, hey, we did it. We really
want consumption.
McDonalds also announced that it would use its packag-
ing to make healthier options more appealing to kids. For
example, a side of carrots might come in a more colorfully
designed bag. Parents will still be able to order soda with
Happy Meals, but McDonalds says it will only promote
milk, juice and water on menu boards and in advertising. All
advertising to kids will include a fun nutrition or childrens
well-being message, the company said.
Margo Wootan, director of nutrition policy at the health
advocacy group Center for Science in the Public Interest,
said taking soda off the menu as an option for Happy Meals
was a big step that other fast-food chains should follow. But
she said the push to include positive nutrition messages in
ads to kids could serve to give McDonalds a health halo
that it doesnt necessarily deserve.
The changes McDonalds are making make the food
somewhat healthier. But I dont think a hamburger, some
applies and fries is something Id call healthy, she said.
The announcement comes as McDonalds faces criticism
from health advocates who say it promotes bad eating
habits. After years of outperforming its rivals, McDonalds
is also struggling to shake its fast-food image and keep up
with shifting tastes. Late last year, the company reported its
rst monthly sales decline in nearly a decade and sales per-
formance around the world has been choppy ever since.
To better reect the way people are eating, McDonalds
recently started giving customers the choice to substitute
egg whites in all its breakfast sandwiches.
Modern-day engineering has turned pork chops into that other white meat.They
have very little fat and, consequently, very little avor. Fat is a conductor of avor,
as well as a provider of moisture.

WASHINGTON The Agriculture
Department says 524 schools out of
about 100,000 have dropped out of the
federally subsidized national school lunch
program since the government introduced
new standards for healthier foods last year.
The new standards have met with grum-
bling from school nutrition ofcials who
say they are difcult and expensive to fol-
low, conservatives who say the government
shouldnt be dictating what kids eat and
unsurprisingly from some children who
say the less-greasy food doesnt taste as
good. But USDA says the vast majority of
schools are serving healthier food, with
some success.
According to USDA data released
Monday, around a half-percent of schools
have dropped out since last year. Ninety
of those 524 schools that have dropped
out said specically that they did so
because of the new meal-plan require-
ments. Most of the rest did not give a
reason.
Eighty percent of schools say they
have already met the requirements,
which went into place at the begin-
ning of the 2012 school year.
Its important to remember that
some schools werent as close to
meeting the new standards, and
they may need a little more time
for their students to fully embrace
the new meals, said Dr. Janey
Thornton, the USDAdeputy under-
secretary in charge of the school
meals. She said it is clear that the majority
of schools think the new standards are
working.
In an effort to stem high childhood obesi-
ty levels, the new guidelines set limits on
calories and salt, and they phase in more
whole grains in federally subsidized meals
served in schools main lunch line. Schools
must offer at least one vegetable or fruit per
meal and comply with a variety of other
specic nutrition requirements. The rules
aim to introduce more nutrients to growing
kids and also to make old favorites healthi-
er pizza with low-fat cheese and whole-
wheat crust, for example, or baked instead
of fried potatoes.
If schools do not follow the rules, or if
they drop out,
they are not eli-
gible for the fed-
eral dollars that
reimburse them
for
free and low-cost meals served to low-
income students. That means wealthier
schools with fewer needy students are more
likely to be able to operate outside of the
program.
Some school nutrition ofcials have said
buying the healthier foods put a strain on
their budgets. Astudy by the Pew Charitable
Trusts Kids Safe and Healthful Foods
Project, also released Monday, said that 91
percent of school food ofcials the group
surveyed said they face challenges in put-
ting the standards in place, including prob-
lems with food costs and availability, train-
ing employees to follow the new guide-
lines, and a lack of the proper equipment to
cook healthier meals.
The group said almost all schools they
surveyed had expected to meet the require-
ments by the end of last year. Even though
some schools are still working out the
kinks, It shows that this is certainly
doable, said Jessica Donze Black, director
of the Pew project, which has lobbied for
healthier foods.
Leah Schmidt, president of the School
Nutrition Association and director of nutri-
tion programs at a Kansas City, Mo. school
district, said any schools that would consid-
er forgoing the federal funds would have to
have very few students eating the free and
reduced-cost meals.
She said it is to be expected that some
schools have met challenges.
Any time you have something new,
youre going to have some growing pains,
she said.
Dr. Howell Wechsler, the CEO of the
Alliance for a Healthier Generation, a group
that is aiming to reduce childhood obesity,
said that though some schools are still
working to catch up, many have exceeded
the standards. The alliance has worked with
more than 18,000 schools in all 50 states,
and Wechsler says many are thinking of cre-
ative ways to encourage healthy eating,
like holding walk-a-thons or farmers mar-
kets to raise money instead of bake sales.
He said that many of the schools have
reported better academic performance and
less student sick days as a result.
Just about all of the schools that partici-
pate with us they say there is a difference,
Wechsler said.
As some schools struggled to fol-
low the new guidelines at the begin-
ning of the last school year, USDA
relaxed some of the original require-
ments. In December, the department
did away with daily and weekly limits
on meats and grains that school nutri-
tion ofcials said were too hard to fol-
low.
Congress has also had its say on the
standards. In 2011, after USDA rst
proposed them, Congress prohibited
the department from limiting pota-
toes and French fries and allowed
school lunchrooms to continue
counting tomato paste on pizza as a
vegetable.
The school lunch rules apply to federally
subsidized lunches served at reduced or no
cost to low-income children. Those meals
have always been subject to nutritional
guidelines because they are partially paid
for by the federal government, but the new
rules put broader restrictions on what could
be served as childhood obesity rates have
skyrocketed.

it could for the city; the vacant storefronts and
empty lots are stark reminders of this fact. The
city needs a viable, proactive economic devel-
opment strategy that brings businesses and
their customers into Belmont to increase the
citys tax base.
Charles Stone: Belmonts biggest chal-
lenge is a council thats been an obstacle to
improvement. We need strong leaders who can
dene priorities and give clear direction to
staff; leaders with vision who will engage
stakeholders and build bridges between dis-
parate viewpoints to get to successful out-
comes. I am one of those leaders.
Michael Verdone: Belmonts long neg-
lected infrastructure that only gets more cost-
ly as time progresses. We must generate a suf-
cient sales tax base by being more business
friendly in order to relieve the nancial bur-
dens that will eventually be placed on our res-
idents.
Did you agree wi th the Ci ty
Councils decision to not allow a pri-
vate middle school to occupy the
zoned ofce use on Davis Drive and
why?
Gladwyn dSouza: Yes. Education is fan-
tastic, I would love to have another new
school in Belmont. But the fact is this is an
elite private academy that was not ready to
adapt to Belmonts needs for police, re,
library, public schools, etc. ... City services
are hurting nancially. Everybody needs to
pay their fair share.
Warren Lieberman: I did not agree with
the councils decision to not allow a private
middle school to occupy the zoned ofce use
on Davis Drive. Many reasons provided by
three councilmembers on why they changed
their minds seemed arbitrary and without sub-
stance. No discussion of potential problems
such as trafc or the potential nancial bene-
ts was allowed so a thoughtful decision could
be made.
Kristin Mercer: We need a master plan to
revision the use of Davis Drive, and I support
the inclusion of schools in the plan. However,
CSUS did not offer adequate protections for the
city, which would have no tax-lien recourse as
it would have with a tax-paying owner. The 2
percent annual increase would not keep pace
with ination.
Eric Reed: I was the only planning com-
missioner to fully support the Crystal Springs
project and I did not believe that the city made
an optimal decision by turning Crystal
Springs away. We should have worked closely
with the school to nd a win-win solution
one that addressed residents valid concerns
and enabled CSUS to make Belmont its home.
Charles Stone: No. The project would
have provided good revenue ($1 million one-
time payment/$250,000 annually) and a
world-class, modern and green school. I was
disappointed a council majority was for it
before they were against it. They acted prema-
turely even though CSUS was willing to con-
tinue negotiating. The process and outcome
sent a terrible message to businesses interest-
ed in Belmont.
Michael Verdone: No, however, I would
have not accepted the proposal as presented.
There are denitely mitigating factors that
could have been considered and negotiated.
The CSUS ordeal highlights the inefciencies
and mixed message in working with the city
of Belmont for any development project.
What is your vi si on for the ci tys
downtown?
Gladwyn dSouza: Belmont needs to take
advantage of its location between San
Francisco and San Jose. We need quality jobs
in the downtown for both young and older
workers. Downtown should be vibrant, a place
where people can go to gather, shop and work.
The rst place to start is with the input of res-
idents of the downtown.
Warren Lieberman: My vision for the
citys downtown is consistent with the com-
munitys input that we create a gathering place
with a village feel. The citys economic con-
sultants have provided us with a plan for
accomplishing this.
Kristin Mercer: I see Carmel or Los
Altos, not San Mateo. It needs to be consis-
tent with our small-town trademark, appropri-
ately scaled, compact and pedestrian dominat-
ed. The vision document I authored has shared
parking, wider sidewalks, plazas, pedestrian
paseos bisecting blocks and lots of trees. In
the two core blocks, the plan allows second-
oor retail, rooftop cafes and connecting
pedestrian bridges.
Eric Reed: In the future, Belmonts down-
town is a place where those living and work-
ing in Belmont can enjoy a walkable, vibrant
retail and dining environment. It is a place
that meets the needs of residents, university
students and employees in nearby businesses.
Charles Stone: Belmont is a small city
but we can have big ideas. I envision high
quality architectural design that creates a safe,
walkable and bike-friendly downtown con-
nected by green paths and gathering places for
arts and entertainment; a vibrant marketplace
that increases revenues and becomes a destina-
tion instead of just a point on a map.
Michael Verdone: Centralize parking
downtown to allow for more development in
various lots around the area. Move Safeway to
the frontage of El Camino and elevate it to
allow for centralized parking underneath as in
Millbrae. With better utilization of space, we
can add additional mixed-use projects to
accomplish retail and housing objectives.
What is a decision the City Council
has made in last four years that you
disagree with and why?
Gladwyn dSouza: I disagreed with not
zoning our parks as parklands. Currently
parks zoned as open space or agriculture can
be sold especially if there is no parks usage in
effect or residents lack the wherewithal to sue
over the transfer. Parks shouldnt be used for
other uses except parks in order to reduce the
impact on other city infrastructure like roads.
The city of San Mateo has such a rule in effect.
Warren Lieberman: I disagreed with the
councils efforts to impose conditions on the
use of NDNUs soccer eld even though the
council did not have the authority to do so.
NDNU told the council that its terms and con-
ditions were unacceptable and sought to work
with the council in a cooperative manner, but
the council refused to do so. NDNU ultimately
rejected the conditions and the relationship
between the city and NDNU suffered.
Kristin Mercer: The councils greatest
tool for achieving its goals is the budget, and
the ability to allocate funds to align with
council priorities. Council lists 41 priorities
(which is akin to having no priorities). Yet
every year council rubberstamps a budget that
is guaranteed not to accomplish those priori-
ties.
Eric Reed: As a planning commissioner, I
voted yes on the CSUS project, no on the
heavy-handed tree ordinance and no on the
restrictive sign ordinance. The council voted
down CSUS and approved the tree and sign
ordinances. I believe that on those issues, the
council missed opportunities to improve our
nances and reduce burdens on businesses and
residents.
Charles Stone: I disagree with the City
Councils decision to focus time and energy
on an overly restrictive tree ordinance and a
poorly written sign ordinance while our eco-
nomic development is anemic and our infra-
structure is crumbling. Im committed to pri-
oritizing growing our tax base by growing our
economy rather than by asking residents to
pay more.
Michael Verdone: The councils insular
mentality and inability to work with neigh-
boring cities on regional issues of transporta-
tion, economic and housing issues is leg-
endary. Our decoupling of Belmont and San
Carlos re departments is a prime example of
councils failure to work with our neighbors to
achieve economic benets.

FOOD 21
By Sara Moulton
The rst time I ate white chicken chili, it
was wrapped in a burrito. And I fell instant-
ly in love.
Of course, Id always been a fan of toma-
to-based red chili, but the white version
avored with green chili peppers and thick-
ened with sour cream struck me as clean-
er. And I didnt miss the sometimes cloying
sweetness that tomatoes bring to red chili.
So here is my lightened-up version of
white chicken chili. It can be eaten straight
up by the bowl, over rice (preferably
brown), or spooned into a whole-wheat tor-
tilla. To make this dish creamy without any
cream, I thickened it by mashing up some of
the white beans. Combined with a tiny bit
of reduced-fat sour cream, the mashed beans
provide this impeccably slimmed-down
chili with an unexpectedly luxurious tex-
ture.
Good avor and thickening ability aside,
white beans also happen to be a powerhouse
of good nutrition. Theyre a terric source
of ber which means this chili will l l
you up and a very good source of folate
and manganese.
The list of ingredients in this recipe is
longish, but good chili requires a fair
amount of avors. On the other hand, this
version, unlike the traditional one, doesnt
need to simmer for hours, which makes it
quite do-able on a weeknight. Then again, if
you happened to cook it on a weekend and
didnt serve it until a few days later, the a-
vors would only improve.
The base of this chili is ground chicken
and white beans, both of which are afford-
able. If you cant nd ground chicken, use
ground turkey. And if youre not a fan of
either, youre welcome to swap in lean
ground beef.
As written, this recipe isnt especially
spicy. To save time, I call for canned green
chili peppers (which are quite mild) and
generic chili powder (a blend of ground chili
peppers and spices, often oregano and
cumin).
But if you wanted to heat it up, you can
lose the canned chilies in favor of fresh
ones. Poblanos roasted, peeled and
chopped would be perfect, as would
chopped and sauteed jalapenos and serra-
nos. Or you can use pure chili powder made
from ground dried chilies, such as chipo-
tles. Or just finish the dish with your
favorite hot sauce.
And please dont forget the garnishes.
Even though they require extra work, I cant
recommend them highly enough. They add
so many layers of avor and texture to the
nished bowl of chili.
WHITE CHICKEN CHILI WITH LIME
Start to nish: 1 hour (30 minutes active)
Servings: 6
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 cup nely chopped yellow onion
1 red bell pepper, cored and chopped
1 pound ground chicken or turkey
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 1/2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon all-purpose our
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 cup white wine (optional)
1 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth (use
2 cups if not using the wine)
Two 15 1/2-ounce cans white beans,
drained and rinsed
4 1/2 -ounce can chopped green chilies
(use less if you prefer a very mild chili)
1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream
Salt and ground black pepper
To serve:
Chopped scallions
Chopped fresh cilantro
Grated low-fat Monterey Jack cheese
Lime wedges
In a large nonstick or stick-resistant skil-
let over medium, heat the oil. Reduce the
heat to medium-low, add the onion and red
pepper, then cook for 5 minutes, or until
the onion is softened. Add the chicken and
cook, breaking up the any large pieces,
until the chicken is no longer pink, about 5
minutes.
Add the garlic, chili powder, our, cumin
and oregano and cook, stirring, for 2 min-
utes. Add the white wine, if using, and the
broth in a stream, whisking. Bring the mix-
ture to boil and simmer for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, use a fork to mash 1 cup of
the beans. Add both the whole and mashed
beans and the chilies to the chili and sim-
mer for 10 minutes. Stir in the sour cream
and cook until hot. Season with salt and
pepper.
Ladle the chili into bowls and accompany
at the table with scallions, cilantro, cheese
and lime wedges.

The Michelin Guides menu of top tier
restaurants in New York City tastes a lot like
it did last year. And the year before that.
For a third year running, just seven restau-
rants earned the organizations coveted three-
star rating the same seven that got the nod
in 2012 and 2013: Daniel, Per Se, Masa, Le
Bernardin, Eleven Madison Park, Jean
Georges and Chefs Table at Brooklyn Fare.
I wouldnt take that as a sign of lack of cre-
ativity, Michael Ellis, director of the
Michelin guides, said by telephone Tuesday.
Theres some fascinating things that are
going on in New York. Its only a matter of
time before we have some new three-star can-
didates.
Michelin guides, which cover 23 countries,
are considered among the premier ratings of
the restaurant world. Based on the experiences
of anonymous inspectors, the guides award
ratings of one, two or three stars using crite-
ria including quality of ingredients, mastery
of technique, how the chefs personality is
expressed in the food, and consistency.
A total of 930 restaurants spanning 61
cuisines were included in the 2014 edition of
the New York City guide, which was released
Tuesday. Only 67 of them got a star rating.
The citys ve two-star restaurants include
Matthew Lightners seasonally focused Atera;
Soto, Sotohiro Kosugis sushi bar; David
Changs tasting menu-driven Momofuku Ko;
Marea, Michael Whites ode to high-end
Italian seafood; and newcomer Jungsik,
which features the contemporary Korean cui-
sine of executive chef Jungsik Yim.
Nine new restaurants earned one-star rat-
ings, including Asko, Babbo, Carbone,
Caviar Russe, Ichimura, Le Restaurant,
Lincoln, the Musket Room and Telepan. A
total of 55 restaurants earned one Michelin
star.

remain in this race, but will be taking
some time off to attend to my 100-
year-old mother.
At the debate, further developing the
city was a top concern shared by candi-
dates running for the two-year seat on
the council during a forum last night
moderated by the League of Women
Voters. The two-year seat is the com-
pletion of Kevin Mullins term neces-
sitated when he was elected to the
Assembly. Pradeep Gupta, who was
appointed to the seat, is running for
one of the three open four-year seats,
one of which is currently held by
Matsumoto.
Matsumoto, Collin K. Post and
Carlos Martin are running for the one
open two-year seat on the council.
At last nights forum, candidates dis-
cussed ways to bring more business to
the city and its downtown.
We need good incentives to retail-
ers to make them want to come to
South San Francisco, Post said.
Showing property owners the city
has great infrastructure is important,
Matsumoto said, noting that adding
mixed-use housing and retail on Grand
Avenue will also bring in more busi-
ness.
Additionally, establishing a new
economic development agency would
help to bring in new business, Martin
said. He added that the city needs to
work with biotech companies to keep
them in town.
Matsumo agreed
that biotechnology
companies are a
huge part of South
San Francisco.
South San
Francisco is the
biotech capital of
the world,
Matsumoto said.
Further, in creating
a new library in town, Post suggested
adding more computers to the citys
libraries.
I feel that we should get on board
with making everything computer-
ized, Post said.
The citys libraries are social centers
and important to the community,
Martin noted, while Matsumoto said
the city has prioritized establishing a
new library by creating a library
board.
The programs they provide for our
city are above and beyond any in this
county, Matsumoto said.
In terms of funding items on their
agendas in light of dwindling
resources, Martin said the city needs to
think creatively about using its
resources.
Further, Matsumoto added that the
city should create a balance for its
expenses.
Candidates discussed revitalizing
downtown as well. Post is not pleased
with the current state of downtown,
which he believes is unsafe.
Downtown is still the way it was
when I ran for City Council in 1996.
We need to really
clean up down-
town, Post said,
adding he would
have a program for
businesses to keep
it clean and notify
police of loitering.
Matsumoto said the
city gets a bad rap
because all the com-
munity services are downtown, but
that things arent really worse than
other cities along the Peninsula, like
in San Mateo.
Im proud of what weve been doing
in the South San Francisco downtown
area, Matsumoto.
Martin did agree with Post in some
respects. There has been a bigger
homeless problem in town, Martin
said. Restaurants, startups and theater
would be on Martins agenda for a revi-
talized downtown.
The citys housing needs were also
felt by those running.
Martin noted that people should be
able to live closer to where they work.
A variety of groups need housing and
high density is key to this,
Matsumoto said. Walkable communi-
ties are key for seniors, she added.
Transportation was also a concern for
candidates such as Post, who noted
that the location of Caltrain is current-
ly very unsafe.
Its kind of like a desert, its just out
there, Post said. Increasing bicycle
paths in South San Francisco was a
suggestion from Martin in terms of
improving transportation.
ELECTION
technicians tackle and resolve glitch-
es.
In Obamas home state, dozens of
people who came to a Champaign, Ill.,
public health ofce to sign up for cov-
erage found computer screens around
the room ashing an error message:
System is unavailable.
Kimberly Shockley logging in
from Houston, Texas and Mike
Weaver, who lives in rural southern
Illinois, ran into the same glitch as
many others: They could not get past
the security questions while trying to
set up their personal accounts through
healthcare.gov.
Im frustrated, very frustrated, said
Shockley, a self-employed CPA. She
spent more than an hour trying to get
the security questions to work without
success. When she clicked on a drop-
down menu of suggested security ques-
tions, none appeared. She then tried to
create her own questions, but that did-
nt work either.
Weaver, a self-employed photogra-
pher, said he also ran into problems
with the drop-down menus. And when
they started working, he still wasnt
able to set up his account.
The rst day of something that you
know is going to have a lot of bugs,
its not that frustrating, he said. If it
was the last day to sign up ... then Id
be terribly frustrated.
Shockley has health insurance, but
is looking for a better plan. Weaver is
uninsured.
State-operated sites also experienced
trouble.
Minnesota got its site running after
a delay of several hours. Rhode
Islands site recovered after a tempo-
rary crash. A spokesman for the New
York Department of Health blamed dif-
culties on the 2 million visits to the
website in the rst 90 minutes after its
launch. Washington states market-
place used Twitter to thank users for
their patience.
Exchange ofcials in Colorado said
their website would not be fully func-
tional for the rst month, although
consumers will be able to get help
applying for government subsidies
during that time. Hawaiis marketplace
wasnt allowing people to compare
plans and prices.
Connecticut seemed to be a bright
spot, although some users reported
some snags. Access Health CT sent out
a tweet shortly before noon Tuesday,
confirming the marketplace logged
10,000 visitors in the rst three hours
of operation and 22 enrollments. A
family of three was the rst to sign up
for coverage.
California, home to 15 percent of
the nations uninsured, reported delays
online and on the phone because of
heavy volume. The first completed
health insurance application was taken
at 8:04 a.m., just minutes after the
exchange opened.
In Portsmouth, N.H., Deborah
Lielasus tried to sign up for coverage
but got only as far as creating an
account before the website stopped
working. She said she expected prob-
lems.
Lielasus, a 54-year-old self-
employed grant writer, currently
spends about $8,500 a year in premi-
ums and more than $10,000 for out-of-
pocket expenses because she has a
health condition and her only option
has been a state high-risk insurance
pool. She said she expects those costs
to decrease signicantly.

NOTICE OF CITY COUNCIL PUBLIC HEARING
CITY OF FOSTER CITY
GILEAD SCIENCES INTEGRATED CORPORATE CAMPUS
MASTER PLAN
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the City Council of the City of Foster City will hold a Public Hearing
to review the Gilead Sciences Integrated Corporate Campus Master Plan including: (1) Certication
of the Final Subsequent Environmental Impact Report including adoption of the Mitigation Monitoring
and Reporting Program and ndings regarding signicant environmental impacts including a State-
ment of Overriding Considerations (EA-11-005); and (2) an Amendment to the Vintage Park General
Development Plan (Master Plan)/Rezoning (RZ-11-004).
The Public Hearing will be held at 6:30 pm on Monday, October 21, 2013 in the Council Chambers
located at 620 Foster City Boulevard, adjacent to City Hall.
PROJECT LOCATION:
Vintage Park 300-368 Lakeside Drive; 301 Velocity Way - (APNs: 094-901-290; 094-901-300;
094-901-310; 094-901-340; 094-901-370; 094-901-380; 094-901-390; 094-901-400; 094-901-

094-122-150), 72 acres of a portion of the Vintage Park business park owned by Gilead Sciences.
The project site is bounded by East Third Avenue to the north, Vintage Park Drive/Marsh Drive to the
east, Bridgepointe Shopping Center/Home Depot in San Mateo to the south, and Mariners Island
Boulevard in San Mateo to the west. Figure 1 depicts the location of the project site.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND:
The proposed project would amend the 2010 Gilead Sciences Master Plan and the Vintage Park
General Development Plan to incorporate and develop an additional approximately 32 acres acquired
from Electronics for Imaging (EFI) adjacent to the 40-acre site comprising the 2010 Master Plan.
The 2012 Master Plan would redevelop portions of the approximately 72-acre project site, including
demolition of up to 12 of the existing ofce and laboratory buildings, and construction of up to 17
new buildings. Buildout of the 2012 Master Plan would result in a total of up to 22 ofce and labora-
tory buildings (comprising approximately 2,500,600 square feet of interior space) and 6,050 parking
stalls on the project site. Development envisioned under the proposed 2012 Master Plan requires an
amendment to the Vintage Park General Development Plan/Rezoning and various other City entitle-
ments, including demolition, construction, and building permits. The Planning Commission reviewed
these applications at their meeting of September 12, 2013 and recommended City Council approval.
The public is invited to attend and to offer comments at the Public Hearing. The Public Hearing will
be aired live on television on Comcast Channel 27. The Final Subsequent Environmental Impact
Report, including the Response to Comments Document are available on the Citys website and for
review Monday through Friday, between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., at the Foster City City
Hall, Community Development Department, 610 Foster City Boulevard, Foster City, California, 94404
except on specied holidays.

raring to go, having been trained
from July 15 until Monday on how to
guide callers and coordinate with
Covered California, the states health
care exchange.
The challenge, she said, might be
being able to explain it in a way to
someone who might be a little bit con-
fused, Martinez said.
In the cubicle across the way, Kathy
Switzer had already elded some calls
and said she found many well-versed in
the unprecedented health care expan-
sion in large part to the media blitz
leading up to Tuesdays kickoff.
Alot of information about the initial
enrollment trends in calls and ques-
tions, overall numbers, who is qualify-
ing for what wont be known ini-
tially.
Every day were going to be learn-
ing something, said Ed Kiryczun,
health care reform team project lead
and call center manager.
Most health officials, including
those in San Mateo County, have pre-
dicted that a glut of initial interest will
level out before a bigger sign up surge
close to the Dec. 15 deadline for cover-
age starting Jan. 1. Customers must
sign up by the end of March to avoid
tax penalties.
Early tax season with a new question
asking if the payer has a qualifying
health insurance program may also
provide a push, Kiryczun said.
On Tuesday, the attitude in the local
center was one of optimism.
Weve been preparing two and a
half years for this day, said HSA
Director Beverly Beasley Johnson.
Its a really important day for San
Mateo County. Now we can offer insur-
ance options to so many more people
which is pretty signicant.
A key message the HSA staff wants
the community to know is that when it
comes to enrolling in health coverage,
there is no wrong door. Residents can
contact Covered California or the
county directly either via phone or
even by walking into one of HSAs
regional ofces. If a person qualies
for Medi-Cal and calls Covered
California, they will be transferred to a
county worker at the Belmont call cen-
ter. On the other hand, if the person
qualies for a different plan on the
exchange or a tax subsidy, the county
workers can process that application,
t oo.
On Tuesday, the county had yet to
receive its needed password from
Covered California by mid-day which
left callers either leaving their name
on a callback list or lling out a thick
staff of paper forms for input later.
Another benet of contacting the
county for those who qualify for
expanded Medi-Cal is that workers are
also screening callers for possible
enrollment in other sustainability pro-
grams like Cal-Fresh, the states food
stamp program.
Those who are choosing a private
plan can pick it out themselves but the
employees are specically trained to
help with selection.
The Obama administration has said
it hopes to sign up 7 million clients
the rst year and eventually grab at
least half of the countys 50 million
uninsured.
Locally, the expectation is up to
51,000 under Medi-Cal in the next 12
to 15 months and serving up to 38,000
families who qualify for subsidies, said
Clarisa Simon, director of economic
self-sufciency.
The ACA expansion of Medi-Cal
made an estimated 13,000 new county
residents eligible for Covered
California exchange plans and about
4,000 enrollees in ACE the coun-
tys low-income health coverage pro-
gram Access and Care for Everyone
are also eligible. Of those, the Health
System expects about half to switch in
the rst year.
In addition to gearing up for
enrolling people through the ACA, the
county also brought its own health
nancing programs in line with the
states plan with increased cost shar-
ing and tightened eligibility parame-
ters as a way to encourage moving
over. The county also implemented a
limited ACE program until Dec. 31 for
those who are eligible but do not
enroll.
Information on enrollment is avail-
able at www.coveredca.com,
www.mybenefitscalwin, (800) 223-
8383 or any of the Human Services
Agency regional ofces. The Covered
California phone hours through March
are 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday to Friday
and 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday.

it is unknown whether the detonating
device brandished in the crime was real
or not, according to police.
Responding officers conducted an
extensive check of the area but were
unable to locate the suspect.
During a canvass of downtown, of-
cers discovered that the suspect, how-
ever, was captured in a photograph as
he checked his disguise.
The suspect was wearing a white T-
shirt with a logo on the pocket and a
dark ball cap with what appeared to be
a blond wig with a ponytail attached,
Based on witness accounts, the sus-
pect may be bald or have very short
hair and he escaped with an undis-
closed amount of cash.
He is further described as a middle-
aged white man, about 5 feet 8 inches
tall with a heavy build.
Police are also working to obtain
and evaluate any more video surveil-
lance downtown that may have cap-
tured his image.
Police are encouraging anyone who
may spot the suspect not to approach
him since he may be armed.
Anyone with information regarding
the bank robbery is encouraged to con-
tact San Mateo police at 522-7650.
The secret witness line is 522-7676.

rather than signing up for coverage, which begins in the new
year.
Like anything when you rst start, youve got to adjust a
little bit, said Pat Macht, a spokeswoman for Covered
California . The systems not been down, but it might have
had some slower response time. But people are signing up.
Gov. Jerry Brown, meanwhile, announced he had signed a
package of bills to help implement the new law and expand
the states Medi-Cal program for those who are too poor to
pay for the subsidized insurance.
While extreme radicals in Washington shut down our gov-
ernment, here in California were taking action to extend
decent health care to millions of families, Brown said in a
statement, referring to the impasse in Congress that has led
to a partial shutdown of federal government operations.
California ofcials said the shutdown had no effect on the
state exchange. Some 5.3 million Californians are eligible
to apply for coverage under President Barack Obamas health
law, known as Obamacare, about 1.4 million of them
through expanded access to the states health insurance pro-
gram for the poor, Medi-Cal.
The rst completed health insurance application was taken
at 8:04 a.m., said Carene Carolan, deputy director of the
Rancho Cordova service center.
We are getting a huge, huge volume of calls, she said.
Ofcials said gures on how many people enrolled would
not be available until Nov. 15, as agents need time to
process and approve the applications.
Lee, the executive director, was joined at the Rancho
Cordova call center Tuesday by state Health and Human
Services Agency Secretary Diana Dooley, lawmakers who
support the federal Affordable Care Act and the president of
the states largest public employee union, which represents
the call center workers.

UNITED NATIONS Israeli Prime
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu played the
spoiler Tuesday to any easing of Irans rela-
tions with the West, telling world leaders
his country will do whatever it takes to pre-
vent Tehran from developing nuclear
weapons, even if it has to stand alone.
Speaking at the U.N. General Assembly,
Netanyahu asserted that Iranian President
Hassan Rouhani must have known about a
terror attack on a Buenos Aires Jewish com-
munity center in 1994, as well as the 1996
bombing in Saudi Arabia that killed 19
Americans, because he was national securi-
ty adviser at the time.
Last week, President Barack Obama and
the Iranian leader spoke on the phone, the
highest level contacts between their coun-
tries in 34 years.
Netanyahu said Israels future is threat-
ened by a nuclear-armed Iran seeking its
destruction and urged the international com-
munity to keep up pressure through sanc-
tions.
Israel will not allow Iran to get nuclear
weapons, he said. If Israel is forced to
stand alone, Israel will stand alone, but in
standing alone Israel will know that we will
be defending many, many others,
Netanyahu added.
An Iranian diplomat, Khodadad Sei, shot
back: Unlike Israel, Iran would not and did
not attack any country.
It is not due to its inability, but due to its
principled policy in rejecting any use of
force, Sei, a deputy ambassador to Irans
U.N. mission, told the assembly.
Therefore the Israeli prime minister had
better not even think about attacking Iran
let alone planning for that.
At the White House, press secretary Jay
Carney said Netanyahus skepticism about
Iran and its intentions is entirely justi-
able because until recently Irans leader-
ship was pledging to annihilate Israel. He
said the U.S. shares Israels goal of keep-
ing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon.
Netanyahu: Israel wont let Iran get nuclear arms
By Nicole Wineld
VATICAN CITY Pope Francis says he
doesnt want a Vatican-centric church
concerned about itself but a missionary
church that reaches out to the poor, the
young, the elderly and even to non-believ-
ers. Thats the vision he laid out as he
opened a landmark meeting Tuesday on
reforming the 2,000-year-old institution.
Francis convened the inaugural meeting
of his eight cardinal advisers for three days
of brainstorming on revamping the anti-
quated Vatican bureaucracy and other
reforms. The move ful-
lls a key mandate of the
cardinals who elected
him: They wanted a pope
who would involve local
church leaders in helping
make decisions about the
1.2-billion strong
church.
The closed-door meet-
ing got underway against
the backdrop of one of the most tangible
signs that change is already afoot: The
secretive Vatican bank, under investigation
for alleged money-laundering by Italian
prosecutors, released its rst-ever annual
report Tuesday, the latest step toward nan-
cial transparency championed by Francis
and his predecessor Benedict XVI.
Net earnings at the bank, known as the
Institute for Religious Works, rose more
than four-fold to 86.6 million euros
($116.95 million) in 2012, the report said.
More than 50 million euros of that was
given to the pope for his charitable works.
Francis has put the Vatican bank on
notice, forming a commission of inquiry to
look into its activities amid accusations by
Italian prosecutors that its clients may have
used its lax controls to launder money. The
banks two top managers have already
resigned and a Vatican monsignor has been
arrested after trying to smuggle 20 million
euros into Italy from Switzerland without
declaring it at customs.
Francis has formed another commission
of inquiry to look into the Vaticans overall
nancial health, but his decision to name
the eight cardinals from around the world as
a permanent advisory panel represents the
most signicant sign that he wants to shake
things up at the Vatican.
No decisions are expected this week and
Francis himself has said the reform process
will take time.
