STREET FAIR FEATURES EVERYTHING SUSTAINABLE IN
BURLINGAME
By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Starting a farm has long been a
dream of Jered Lawson and his wife
Nancy Vail.
The Southern California natives
always enjoyed nature whenever
given the chance to explore. What
they really wanted was more than a
farm. The couple wanted to create
an opportunity to connect people
with where their food comes. Today,
they run Pie Ranch, a nonprot in
Pescadero that, since 2005, has
operated as a working farm that
hosts area youth to participate in
farm-based activities. Partnering
with schools, the trips are often dur-
ing the day but the idea is to not
only get children outside but also
teach them about food, food justice,
production and nutrition.
Building relationships with
schools is a key part of the business.
To create the needed positions
required money. For that, the couple
turned to San Mateo-based nonprof-
it Foundation for Youth Investment,
known as FYI, which works to sup-
port outdoor opportunities for chil-
dren. The organization helps in
three ways investing in organiza-
tions, sharing information in the
eld and through bigger issues or
initiatives, said Executive Director
Steve Hagler.
Heres the thing about outdoor
education, if you ask any mother or
any father, OK you have a choice:
More than an outside chance
Farm, school partnership brings outdoor education to life
Test shows most
student writers
not proficient
By Christine Armario
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Students who have access to com-
puters at home and regularly use
them for assignments are more like-
ly to be strong writers, a national
exam suggests. But it also says just a
quarter of Americas eighth- and
12th-grade students have solid writ-
ing skills.
Twenty-seven percent of the stu-
dents at each of those grade levels
were able to write essays that were
well developed, organized and had
proper language and grammar 24
percent were considered procient,
3 percent advanced. The remainder
showed just partial mastery of these
skills.
It is important to remember this
is first-draft writing, said Mary
Crovo, deputy executive director of
the National Assessment Governing
Board, which administers the
Nations Report Card tests. They
did have some time to edit, but it
wasnt extensive editing.

Anxious customers of The Pantry
are awaiting the family restaurants
Monday reopening at a new loca-

waiting.
As the Morales family is working
hard to get their new place ready for
business, they are met with a con-

Are you guys open? asked one
man who peeked in the front door of
the Pantrys new home on South
Delaware Street in San Mateo.
No, not yet, said a smiling
Ramir Morales, son of Rudy and

DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
This Sunday, learning about sustainability
and environmentalism isnt just a service to
our community, its about having fun. The
fth annual Burlingame Green Street Fair pro-
vides a forum to discuss green solutions and
implementation to our daily lives.
The average person goes through an esti-
mated 500 plastic bags a year, said
Burlingame Councilwoman Terry Nagel, also
a co-organizer of this years fair. This waste
will take visual form on Sunday as the bag
monster. A person dressed in 500 plastic bags
will be walking through the fair to provide an
astonishing perspective of the human effect on
our ecosystem.
Were all so very busy, that we sometimes
take shortcuts when theres things we could
do to be environmentally sustainable, Nagel
said.
Envisioned as a family-oriented event, the
fair uses activities to bring the message home.
Bicycle-powered spin art allows one to choose
colors and bike across a canvas creating
unique compositions, Nagel said. Visitors can
take home an inspiring reminder about living
green with other decorative and abstract art-
works made from recycled materials. An eco-
friendly fashion show will demonstrate how
going green is in trend.
Visitors can watch martial arts, yoga and
zumba performances to impart simple ways to
make exercise gratifying. A body fat composi-
tion test and nutritional information can help
kick-start participants physical sustainability.
The 18 sponsors and 60 vendors supporting
the fth annual event make this the largest
green fair the city has put on thus far, Nagel
said. The event is free and the rst 500 visitors
will receive a colorful reusable shopping bag
filled with green products and gifts.
Participants can also snag free samples from
vendors such as Whole Foods, Nagel said.
Green businesses will be set up to encour-
age the public to patronize sustainable compa-
nies. The latest hybrid and electric cars will be
on display revealing earth-friendly traveling
options.
A major component of the street fair is the
conjunction of a state-licensed recycling facil-
ity where all items are recycled locally with-
out overseas landll shipping, Nagel said.
Universal Waste Management Inc. will freely
accept clothing; books; small household
appliances such as vacuums, lamps and toast-
er ovens; and small or large electronic items
such as televisions, computers and stereos.
Larger items such as washers and dryers,
refrigerators, dishwashers, microwaves, water
heaters and mattresses of all sizes can also be
recycled for a small fee.
The informative and participatory street fair
is a collaboration of city and community
effort. When she was mayor, Nagel assisted in
passing the Climate Action Plan to signi-
cantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The
fair is presented by the Citizens
Environmental Council-Burlingame, which
stemmed from CAP as a nonprot created to
endorse an environmentally and economically
sustainable community, Nagel said.
Were trying to show people theres a lot of
simple easy things you can do to help lower
carbon emissions and help protect the planet,
Nagel said.
The Burlingame Green Street Fair is this
Sunday from 9 a.m.-2 p.m. in downtown
Burlingame on Park Road between Howard
and Burlingame avenues. For more informa-

FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
U.S. Rep. Jackie Speier, D-San Mateo, introduced bipartisan leg-

tions from retaliation for government contract workers, who are non-
federal employees, when they report incidences of waste, fraud and
abuse of taxpayer dollars.
The Non-Federal Employees Whistleblower Protection Act, H.R.
6406, encourages internal reporting by contract employees who iden-
tify and expose inefciencies in federal programs and misconduct by government and con-
tract workers. It also provides protections to workers that report wrongdoing to oversight of-
cials and Congress. The bill is a companion to legislation introduced in the Senate by Claire
McCaskill, D-MO, who is a champion of whistleblower protections.

A Japanese diplomat accused of abusing
his wife several times will stand trial, a
judge ruled Friday, capping a preliminary
hearing spanning six days in which the
woman detailed him hitting her over the
head with a laptop, stabbing her hand with a
miniature screwdriver and throwing her from
a car in their San Bruno parking lot.
Vice Consul Yoshiaki Nagaya, 33, has pre-
viously pleaded not guilty to 17 counts of
domestic violence and assault with a deadly
weapon against his wife of 18 months, Yuka.
On Friday, however, Judge Lisa Novak ruled
there was sufficient evidence for Nagaya to
stand trial on all but one charge of spousal
abuse and all allegations of inflicting great
bodily injury. She ordered him back to court
Oct. 5 for Superior Court arraignment.
Nagayas case drew substantial attention
from the Japanese media, including crews
that traveled to San Mateo County for the
preliminary hearing. The hearing itself gen-
erated its own buzz, in part for the implica-
tion consul employees tried intimidating
Yuka Nagaya in the courtroom and because
her testimony dragged out over several days
because of translation issues, claims she did-
nt recall incidents and painstakingly
detailed cross-examination by the defense.
The couple married in April 2010, shortly
before they moved to California for his job
in San Francisco at the consulate, and she
gave police photos of injuries she said he
caused during arguments, often over her sus-
picions he was having a
relationship with a fellow
consul employee.
She said between
January 2011 and March
31, 2012, he also poured
milk over her head,
stomped on her chest sev-
eral times so she was
unable to move for hours,
struck her so hard an
upper molar later fell
from her mouth while eating and stabbed the
webbing of her hand with a miniature screw-
driver.
San Bruno police arrested Nagaya April 1
after he allegedly threw his wife from a car
in the parking lot of their San Bruno apart-
ment.
On Monday, Yuka Nagayas dentist testi-
fied that he saw her several days after the
alleged abuse and did not see any trauma to
the inside of her mouth. Novak held Nagaya
to answer for a count of spousal abuse stem-
ming from the incident but did not find
enough evidence to prove she lost her tooth
as a result.
Nagaya is free from custody on $350,000
cash bail. Prosecutors say he faces up to 20
years in prison if convicted.
Meanwhile, he remains employed with the
consulate.

The Pittsburg man charged with murder-
ing a childhood friend at a San Mateo shop-
ping center because he reportedly felt the
community activist was out to get him can-
not re the court-appointed attorney who
recently failed to convince a judge his
client is incompetent to stand trial.
After holding a condential hearing on
Gregory Elarms request for new counsel, a
judge ruled that he cannot have a new attor-
ney. Attorney Jonathan McDougall is
Elarms second attorney already, having
replaced the lawyer representing him
before he was committed to a state mental
facility. A previous request to release
McDougall was also declined.
Elarms is currently scheduled to start
trial on murder and
gun charges Oct. 29.
He is also charged
with lying in wait for
David Lewis which
leaves him facing no
chance of parole if
convicted of rst-
degree murder in the
June 9, 2010 shooting.
Elarms is accused of
following East Palo
Alto activist Lewis, 54, from the San Mateo
Medical Center where he was an outreach
worker to the parking lot of Hillsdale
Shopping Center on June 9, 2010. Just
before 6 p.m., Elarms allegedly pulled a
.44-caliber gun and shot Lewis in the torso.
During a preliminary hearing on the
murder and gun charges, a San Mateo
police detective testied that Elarms
believed gangmembers were after him and
that Lewis, once his friend, was now his
opponent. Lewis uttered the name Greg
before dying but police made no arrests
until contacted by Elarms six months after
the shooting.
Elarms prosecution was on hold for the
better part of a year while he was hospital-
ized in a state mental facility as incompe-
tent but he recently returned to San Mateo
County after doctors concluded he is now
able to aid in his own defense. A judge
declared him competent based on those
reports. Elarms then refused to waive his
right to a speedy trial and asked to replace
McDougall.
Elarms remains in custody without bail.
He faces life in prison with parole if con-
victed.

San Francisco Bay Area
home sales rise in August
SAN DIEGO A research rm says the San Francisco Bay
area posted its strongest August for home sales in six years.
DataQuick said Friday that nearly 8,600 new and existing
houses and condominiums were sold in the nine-county region
last month, up more than 14 percent from the same period last
year.
The median sales price was $410,000, up nearly 11 percent
from last year. It is the fth straight month of annual price
increases.
The San Diego-based research rm says low borrowing
rates, an improving economy and more interest in mid- to
high-end properties fueled the gains.

the companys mangoes were linked to salmonella illnesses in
15 states.
The FDA announced the import alert Friday against Agricola
Daniella, a mango supplier with multiple plantations and a sin-
gle packing house located in Sinaloa, Mexico. The alert means
the United States wont accept the imports unless the company
can show testing that proves the mangoes are safe.
A California importer recalled the Daniella brand mangoes
last month after they were linked by U.S. ofcials to dozens of
illnesses around the country, most of them in California.
House votes to end energy loan guarantee program
WASHINGTON Republicans on Friday pushed a bill
through the House shining a campaign-season light on the most
conspicuous failure of President Barack Obamas economic
stimulus package. The bill would phase out federal loan guar-
antees like those that went to the now-bankrupt solar power
company Solyndra LLC and left taxpayers on the hook for more
than $500 million.
The No More Solyndras Act, which passed on a mainly
party-line vote, has no chance of advancing in the Democratic-
led Senate and was assailed by House Democrats as an election-
year stunt. The vote was 245-161.

The Menlo Park Fire Department
determined that the Beechwood
Schools modular building that
caught re early Thursday morning
was not equipped with a monitored
re alarm system or sprinkler system,
which are required in permanent
structures.
This is the second modular school
building re in the last year we have
had here in Menlo Park, said Menlo
Park Fire Chief Harold
Schapelhouman.
The building was intended as a
temporary structure, and is not
required to have early alarm systems
and sprinklers, which could have pre-
vented the re from becoming as
large as it did. The school has used
the modular buildings since 1986,
and is looking into building a perma-
nent structure, Schapelhouman said.
Fireghters responded to
Beechwood School at 50 Terminal
Ave. after a caller reported seeing
smoke and re coming from one of
the schools portable classrooms at
about 3:50 a.m., according to
Schapelhouman.
Arriving units were delayed in
reaching the re because the caller
mistakenly gave them the wrong
address, and they arrived about a
quarter-mile away, causing a three to
four minute delayed arrival,
Schapelhouman said.
Schapelhouman said additional
time was needed to gain access to the
gated campus and locked building
that also had window bars on them.
The rst reghters arrived at 3:55
a.m., and found ames and smoke
coming from one of the modular
school buildings, a conguration of
several triple-wide trailers arranged
as a single building that housed the
schools administrative ofces and
several classrooms.
The re started due to an electric
stove in the teachers break room and
a pinched electrical cord that failed.
Fireghters assisted school staff
with salvage operations until 6 p.m.,
Schapelhouman said.
The other school buildings were
not damaged in the re, but power
was cut to the entire school and class-
es will be canceled until at least next
week.
The destroyed building is expected
to be razed and removed from cam-
pus by Monday, when classes are
likely to resume.
A total of 15 reghters and three
investigators responded to the blaze,
and received assistance from the
Redwood City Fire Department.

MADISON, Wis. A Wisconsin
judge on Friday struck down nearly
all of the state law championed by
Gov. Scott Walker that effectively
ended collective bargaining rights
for most public workers.
Walkers administration immedi-
ately vowed to appeal, while unions,
which have vigorously fought the
law, declared victory. But what the
ruling meant for existing public
contracts was murky: Unions
claimed the ruling meant they could
negotiate again, but Walker could
seek to keep the law in effect while
the legal drama plays out.
The law, a crowning achievement
for Walker that made him a national
conservative star, took away nearly
all collective bargaining rights from
most workers and has been in effect
for more than a year.

WASHINGTON Septembers
shock, Octobers surprise, early
Novembers can knock a campaign
sideways. In a presidential races
waning weeks, almost anything can
happen bedlam in the Middle
East, nancial panic at home, a
scandal in the headlines. And candi-
dates have little time to absorb the
blow.
Sometimes the kind of jolt known
as an October surprise matters in
the end. Other times it doesnt. But
every campaign knows enough to
worry about what might come.
A fall general election is a very
wild ride, said Steve Schmidt, who
managed Sen. John McCains cam-
paign and served on George W.
Bushs re-election team. Its a
volatile ride. Youre always on
guard.
Often the unforeseen sweeps in
from overseas. Anti-American
protests spreading through Muslim
countries this week and the armed
attacks that killed the ambassador
and three other Americans in
Benghazi, Libya, grabbed a presi-
dential race focused on the domestic
economy and spun it around to for-
eign policy.
Republican nominee Mitt
Romney seized on the unrest in
Libya, Egypt and then Yemen to
criticize President Barack Obama as
a weak world leader willing to
appease Islamic extremists. Obama
portrayed Romney as untested in
foreign policy and rushing to politi-
cize a tragedy before fully under-
standing the facts.
How much of that is remembered
by voters on Nov. 6 will depend on
what happens in the meantime.
Does the anti-American violence in
Muslim nations are or fade? Other
surprises, such as skyrocketing
gasoline prices or escalating trouble
between Israel and Iran, might
emerge and be fresher on voters
minds.
Every day matters. Every
moment changes the needle, said
Democratic strategist Donna
Brazile, a veteran of the Bill Clinton
and Al Gore presidential cam-
paigns. But she says its unlikely a
late surprise will reset the race
because the basic threads of this
election are already implanted in the
minds of voters.
The classic definition of an
October surprise a term popular-
ized by Ronald Reagan in 1980
is timely news orchestrated by a
president to help his own re-elec-
tion. Now its more broadly applied
to any unexpected development
with potential to sway the race
toward one candidate or the other.
In 2008, Obamas campaign ben-
eted from the autumn economic
shock that, in its aftermath, now
threatens his re-election.
Four years ago at this exact hour,
John McCain had a lead coming out
of a very successful convention.
Nobody had any idea a series of
events was going to unfold that
brought the global nancial system
to the brink of collapse, Schmidt
said Thursday. It effectively ended
the campaign.
On Sept. 15, 2008, Lehman
Brothers investment bank led for
the nations largest bankruptcy ever,
setting off a stock market crash and
global nancial panic that voters
largely blamed on the Republicans
in power. McCain didnt help his
cause by declaring that the funda-
mentals of the economy are strong
a statement mocked by the
Obama campaign. Thats not to say
Obama wouldnt have won, any-
way, but it would have been a dif-
ferent race.
Autumn surprise can change presidential race
Two Marines killed in attack
in southern Afghanistan
WASHINGTON Heavily
armed insurgents attacked a British
air base in southern Afghanistan
Friday, killing two U.S. Marines and
wounding several other troops, U.S.
ofcials said.
Prince Harry, third in line to the
British throne, is stationed at the
base on a four-month combat tour.
There was no immediate word on his
whereabouts at the time of the attack.
U.S. ofcials said the attack at
Camp Bastion in Afghanistans
Helmand province involved a range
of insurgent weaponry, possibly
including mortars, rockets or rocket-
propelled grenades, as well as small
arms re.
Lt. Col. Stewart Upton, a
spokesman at Camp Leatherneck, a
U.S. Marine based adjacent to the air
base, conrmed the attack and said
two coalition service members had
been killed but he did not specify
their nationalities.
Negotiators have framework
to end Chicago school strike
CHICAGO The citys nearly
weeklong teachers strike appeared
headed toward a resolution Friday
after negotiators emerged from
marathon talks to say they had
achieved a framework that could
end the walkout in time for students
to return to class Monday.
Both sides were careful not to
describe the deal as a nal agreement
and declined to release the terms.
They expected to spend the weekend
working out details before union del-
egates are asked to vote Sunday on
whether to call off the strike.

ANDREWS AIR FORCE BASE,
Md. Four Americans killed in an
attack on a U.S. consulate in Libya
returned home Friday, their remains
each carried in a slow procession by
six Marines as a military band lled
a vast air base hangar with the
mournful hymn Nearer My God to
Thee.
President Barack Obama led the
ceremony, recalling their lives in
deeply personal terms and declaring
the United States will never pull
back on its principles or retreat
from the world.
Their sacrice will never be for-
gotten, Obama said as four ag-
draped cases rested near him. He
had come to witness the return of
those slain in the assault on the
American diplomatic mission,
including the U.S. ambassador,
Chris Stevens.
In the heat of a presidential elec-
tion year, the scene was a gripping
reminder of the danger facing
Americans in diplomatic and mili-
tary service every day, and of the
turmoil in an incendiary region of
the world that continues to test
Obamas leadership.
Always in the background, cam-
paign politics gave way to a sense of
sheer loss. Secretary of State
Hillary Rodham Clintons voice
broke as she spoke before the presi-
dent, and she appeared to be ght-
ing tears as she listened to him.
In addition to Stevens, the cere-
mony also honored three other
Americans killed in Benghazi
Sean Smith, an Air Force veteran
who worked as an information man-
agement specialist for the State
Department; Glen A. Doherty, a
former Navy SEAL who worked for
a private security rm and was pro-
tecting the consulate in Benghazi;
and Tyrone S. Woods, also a former
Navy SEAL who had served protec-
tive duty in various U.S. posts.
They knew the danger, and they
accepted it, Obama said. They
didnt simply embrace the
American ideal. They lived it.
The ceremony recalled one 14
years ago, when President Bill
Clinton led a ceremony at Andrews
for the return of remains of 10
Americans killed in a bombing in
Nairobi.

Libyan officials: U.S.
drones behind airport closure
BENGHAZI, Libya U.S.
drones hovered over the eastern city
of Benghazi on Friday and militia
forces fired toward the crafts,
prompting authorities to close the
airport for several hours for fear a
commercial aircraft could be hit,
Libyan ofcials said.
Abdel-Basit Haroun, the head of
the militia in charge of city security,
said the drones could easily be spot-
ted from the ground. He says men
angry over perceived foreign inter-
vention red in the air and authori-
ties closed the airport.
The drones are like bees, he
said, referring to the long hours the
drones were seen, with their buzzing
noise heard in different neighbor-
hoods of Benghazi. Militias, known
as brigades, fought regime forces
during Libyas eight-month civil
war that led to Moammar Gadhas
fall last year. Since then, many have
roles in keeping security, though
they have not been integrated into
government forces.
Anti-Putin lawmaker
ousted in Russia; whos next?
MOSCOW Russias parlia-
ment on Friday expelled a former
Kremlin loyalist who joined the
growing opposition movement, pro-
pelling President Vladimir Putins
crackdown on political dissent into
the halls of power.
By punishing Gennady Gudkov, a
fellow former KGB ofcer, Putin
signaled his zero tolerance for any
type of revolt within the political
system. Gudkovs expulsion from
the State Duma also means he loses
his immunity from prosecution, and
his supporters fear he could face
arrest.

WASHINGTON A White
House report issued Friday warns
that $109 billion in across-the-board
spending cuts at the start of the new
year would be deeply destructive
to the military and core government
responsibilities like patrolling U.S.
borders and air trafc control.
The report
says the auto-
matic cuts, man-
dated by the
failure of last
years congres-
sional deficit
supercommit-
tee to strike a
budget deal,
would require
an across-the-board cut of 9 percent
to most Pentagon programs and 8
percent in many domestic pro-
grams. The process of automatic
cuts is called sequestration, and the
administration has no exibility in
how to distribute the cuts, other than
to exempt military personnel and
war-ghting accounts.
Sequestration would be deeply
destructive to national security,
domestic investments and core gov-
ernment functions, the report says.
The cuts, combined with the expi-
ration of Bush-era tax cuts at the
end of the year, have been dubbed
the scal cliff. Economists warn
that the one-two punch could drive
the economy back into recession.
The across-the-board cuts were
devised as part of last summers
budget and debt deal between
President Barack Obama and
Capitol Hill Republicans. They
were intended to drive the super-
committee evenly divided
between Democrats and
Republicans to strike a compro-
mise. But the panel deadlocked and
the warring combatants have spent
more time since then blaming each
other for the looming cuts than
seeking ways to avoid them.

Letters to the editor
By Herb Perez
F
oster City continues to face pre-exist-
ing, perpetual and newly revealed
challenges. This has been ongoing
and by nature are part of growth and prosper-
ity. These issues include the structural decit
in our budget and our overcrowded schools.
In both cases, these issues were foreseeable
and anticipated. Each has been addressed in
differing ways and utilized different methods
of analysis and potential resolution.
The ability to create a solution is based
upon a number of interconnected factors and
variables. While it is no small task to create
any solution, it is often challenging and, in
some cases, improbable that any one solution
can be enacted or will in fact solve a particu-
lar problem. In the case of a complex prob-
lem, the sheer number of interdependent
deliverables can make the implementation
and realization of a solution challenging or
unattainable. I would like to offer my insight
regarding both of these challenges and the
proffered solutions.
Our city has enjoyed great prosperity based
upon a number of unique circumstances. In
more prosperous times, the city was able to
manage its resources to create and maintain
our current quality of life. The hard fact is
that we must now nd additional nancial
resources or reduce our current expenditures
to balance our budget. If we cannot or will
not, we will continue to deplete our capital
reserves to the detriment of our city and its
families. Since this is not an option, the
council and city staff have undertaken an
aggressive course to balance the budget with-
in certain parameters. This included several
rounds of review by city staff. They were
tasked to reduce their expenditures while
maintaining the high levels of service our
residents expect. I believe our managers
employed their best efforts to meet the seem-
ingly diametrically opposed goals of less
expenditures and status quo of service.
The task is not complete, however, and this
year we must nd even more savings or face
additional cuts that are
likely to affect our quality
of life. In our upcoming
meetings, we will present
a number of alternatives
which will address the
decit and offer viable
solutions. There is no
doubt that we will see this
task through this year and
enact one of these solutions to solve this
problem. This is in our control as policy
makers and it is a duty that we owe our resi-
dents.
This year, the San Mateo-Foster City
Elementary School District under the direc-
tion of Dr. Cynthia Simms offered the rst
ray of sunshine and hope for our citys over-
crowded schools. They employed a broad-
based approach of review that encouraged
participation and input from various stake-
holders. After this review, the
Superintendents Committee on
Overcrowding Relief, or SCORE, offered a
solution that gained the most support
amongst its group.
The process was a welcome relief to the
past practices of administrations past. There
is no doubt it was inclusive and transparent.
The process allowed the sharing of ideas
both old and new as well as those previous
discounted as unattainable or improbable.
The next question is whether the group
was able to create a solution that could attain
critical mass. Simply stated, would there be
enough buy-in from the various stakeholders
to support the proffered solution. Now this
serious question creates the rst series of
potential problems. The majority of stake-
holders, who are residents in the district, will
have to buy into the solution and be willing
to oat a substantial bond measure to fund it.
Whether this critical mass can be obtained is
yet to be seen. There are many parents who
are not enamored with this solution and feel
it will create a campus with too many chil-
dren sharing too few resources.
The school board decided that this was not
the proper timing to put this question before
the voters. The timing of placement for a
bond issue on the November ballot would not
allow for adequate planning, education or the
building of public support. This opinion is
well-reasoned and responsible to the political
reality with which the school board is con-
fronted.
It is important that we as residents stay
vigilant and focused on this possible solu-
tion. The creation of a solution is not the
end-game. It is in fact, just a starting a point.
The best solution unimplemented is no better
than no solution at all. The better news is that
additional time will allow the school board
and its staff to evaluate the suggested solu-
tion and consider ways to ensure it can be
effectively implemented and be seen to
fruition. Moreover, new opportunities may
arise that will affect the proposed solution or
may create new pathways to solve this prob-
lem.
In closing, I do not offer any judgment of
the solution but merely speak to the impor-
tance of timing and follow-through. There is
no doubt that an additional year will pass
before the possibility of the solution is even
considered. Our schools will remain crowded
and it is highly likely that children currently
enrolled in our elementary schools will not
see that solution implemented. The good
news is that the process is under way and has
positive and productive. In the case of our
citys budget, we as policy makers can see
the end in sight and, with regard to schools,
we must remain vigilant and ever diligent in
our efforts to see it completed.

Arab winter
Editor,
Religions are different. Every religion
was created to solve a human problem.
Islam is similar to a political theory. It was
created to unite the warring Arab tribes to
submit to one religion, Islam, and be a per-
son who submits by becoming muslim, to
one God, Allah, through the teachings of
his prophet, Mohammed. The uprisings that
have been taking place in these Middle East
countries, like the Arab Spring, are bad for
America and Israel. Hopefully, Assad in
Syria will not be replaced. The forces that
are seeking power in Libya, Syria and
Egypt are all motivated, and inspired by
Islamic ideology. The more these uprisings
continue the more negative the results will
be for the United States. I believe that in no
more than a year from now if this trend
continues, the geo-political landscape of the
Middle East will be completely different,
and it wont be good for the United States.

Why tax the rich?
Editor,
In reply to a letter by Randy Swan (Tax
the rich in the Sept. 11 edition of the
Daily Journal), who provided an example
of a neighbor who owns five cars and helps
the economy by purchasing them. This
wealthy person is probably a corporate
executive who runs a lean and mean com-
pany, sort of like the policies of the
Republican Party. To gain more wealth, he
lays off a thousand of his employees and
gives himself a bonus. Does this hurt the
economy? Well not exactly, because with
his increased wealth he can now hire a cook
for his gourmet kitchen, a mechanic-driver
for his five cars, a crew to man his yacht
and a maid that can clean the five bath-
rooms in his mansion. This is what you call
the trickle down theory.

Reel giveaway
The (Riverside) Press-Enterprise
H
andouts to a politically well-con-
nected industry are not a credible
way for legislators to demonstrate
scal responsibility to wary taxpayers. Gov.
Jerry Brown should veto legislation extending
tax credits for lm productions. Giving the
wealthy lm industry additional tax breaks
would send a bizarre message when the gov-
ernor wants voters to pay more in taxes.
The Legislature last month approved AB
2026, which would extend the states motion
picture tax credit through 2017, instead of let-
ting it expire in 2015. The program, which
dates from 2009, offers $100 million in tax
breaks annually in an attempt to keep lm
production from eeing to other states.
Brown signed a one-year extension of the
lm tax credit last year, but he should not
make that mistake again this year. AB 2026s
special treatment for a favored industry col-
lides with both careful scal policy and the
governors own political strategy.
A state with persistently large annual budg-
et shortfalls, for example, should be ruthlessly
eradicating dubious tax loopholes, not widen-
ing them. While $100 million a year is not a
huge sum compared with the $91.3 billion
general fund budget, a state in scal trouble
should be weeding out all unjustied spend-
ing. Besides, there is no crisis requiring
immediate action; the current lm tax credit
runs until 2015.
And offering more largesse to the lm
industry would clash with the governors own
campaign to get voters to back higher sales
and income taxes. Brown realizes
Californians are skeptical about giving legis-
lators more money to oversee, and has tried
to demonstrate a tight-sted approach to gov-
ernment. Last week, for example, the gover-
nors ofce said Browns 2011 order banning
discretionary travel for state ofcials had
saved California $85 million since he took
ofce.
Yet a tax giveaway to a moneyed, political-
ly powerful industry hardly suggests respon-
sible management of public funds particu-
larly when there is not a compelling case that
the tax break is worthwhile. The lm industry
points to studies by UCLA this year and the
Los Angeles County Economic Development
Corp. in 2011, which show the tax credit
more than pays for itself in generating addi-
tional state and local revenue.
But the states legislative analyst in June
said those studies rely on questionable
assumptions that articially inate the return
on the tax break. The analyst concludes the
lm tax credit is a net money loser for state
coffers. And a report last year by the
California Research Bureau, an arm of the
state library, found that available data provid-
ed no clear evidence of any signicant dam-
age to the states industry or economy over
the past decade from other states efforts to
lure lm production away from California.
The Department of Finance says that a siz-
able portion of the credit likely goes to pro-
ductions which would have stayed in
California even without the tax break.
The state has better uses for public funds
than a special-interest handout. Taxpayers
readily understand that concept and so
should the governor.

NEW YORK The stock market
rose again Friday because of economic
help from the Federal Reserve. But even
some of the buyers werent believers.
The Dow Jones industrial average hit
its highest close since of December
2007, the start of the Great Recession.
The Russell 2000 index of smaller com-
panies briey traded above its all-time
closing high.
Markets rallied around the world in
places where traders were getting their
rst chance to react to the Fed announce-
ment: Stocks climbed more than 2 per-
cent in India and France and almost 2
percent in Japan and Germany.
Apple, the most valuable company in
American history, blew through its own
all-time high and neared $700 per share
as it started taking orders for the iPhone
5.
The gains came on top of a 206-point
climb for the Dow on Thursday, when
the Fed laid out additional plans to try to
energize the economy, including buying
$40 billion a month in mortgage bonds
for as long as necessary.
But a day later, even with the market
rising, plenty of investors were uncon-
vinced. They bought stock, but they also
worried that the Fed cant do much to x
the economy and predicted that the stock
market gains would be short-lived.
Tyler Vernon, chief investment ofcer
of Biltmore Capital in Princeton, N.J.,
wanted to capitalize on the market
euphoria while he could. That the Fed is
still taking such aggressive steps to boost
the economy, four years after the nan-
cial crisis, doesnt give him much com-
fort.
The Fed, Vernon said, is like the mor-
phine being pumped into the patient. It
keeps the patient walking and talking.
The Dow rose as much as 113 points
Friday before pulling back. It ended up
53.51 points to 13,593.37. It is a 4 per-
cent rally away from its all-time high of
14,164, reached Oct. 9, 2007.
The Standard & Poors 500 rose 5.78
to 1,465.77, almost exactly 1,000 points
below its all-time high. The Nasdaq
composite index, which has been trading
at the highest levels since 2000, climbed
28.12 to 3,183.95.
The Russell, which tracks 2,000
stocks with market values below $5 bil-
lion, closed at 854.70, a hair under its
all-time high of 865.29 on April 29,
2011. Because the index contains small
companies, it is seen as a gauge of
investors risk tolerance.
Stock market rises again
Wall Street
Stocks that moved substantially or traded
heavily Friday on the New York Stock Exchange
and Nasdaq Stock Market:
NYSE
AK Steel Holding Corp.,down 57 cents at $5.87
The steel maker said that it expects to post a

Big movers
NEW YORK Egan-Jones, an inde-
pendent credit-research rm, downgrad-
ed its rating on U.S. government debt to
AA- from AA on Friday, citing the
Federal Reserves plans to try to stimu-
late the economy.
The credit rating agency said the
Feds plans to buy mortgage bonds will
likely hurt the economy more than help
it.
The plan will weaken the value of the
dollar and push up prices for oil and
other commodities, Egan-Jones said.
That would leave less for consumers to
spend on other things.
But at the same time, Egan-Jones
warned that the federal governments
borrowing costs are likely to slowly rise
as the global economy recovers.
On Thursday, the Fed said it would
buy $40 billion of mortgage bonds a
month to help the economic recov-
ery.
Its the second time the Haverford, Pa.
shop has downgraded U.S. government
debt in ve months. In April, Egan-
Jones lowered its rating on the U.S. to
AA from AA+. It stripped the U.S. of a
top AAA rating in July 2011.
Sean Egan, the companys founder,
has long railed against the power of the
three major rating agencies, Moodys
Investors Service, Standard & Poors
and Fitch Ratings. Egan-Jones Rating
Co. is one of 10 rms the Securities and
Exchange Commission recognizes as a
rating organization.
Earlier this week, Moodys said it
would likely lower its Aaa rating on
U.S. government debt if budget negotia-
tions fail.
Standard & Poors stripped the gov-
ernment of its AAA rating on its
bonds in August 2011. Fitch Ratings
issued a warning of a potential down-
grade.
Egan-Jones cuts U.S. debt rating to AA- from AA
Delivery times rise for iPhone 5
NEW YORK Delivery times climbed quickly as Apple
Inc. started taking orders for the iPhone 5 on Friday, suggest-
ing strong demand.
Apple began taking orders for the phone at 12 a.m. Pacic
time. It initially promised delivery by next Friday, when the
new phone also goes on sale in stores.
Four hours later, the expected delivery time had grown to
two weeks, according to Topeka Capital Markets analyst Brian
White.
White said the quick rise in the expected delivery time sug-
gested much stronger demand than Apple expected. Last year,
one-week delivery of the iPhone 4S was available into the
afternoon of the rst order day.
Clearly, iPhone 5 fever is in full swing, White said.
By the afternoon, only Sprint was still promising delivery by
next Friday. Verizon Wireless said delivery would take two
weeks, and AT&T said it would take 14 to 21 business days.
Apples stock rose $8.02, or 1.2 percent, to $691 in after-
noon trading, after hitting an all-time high of $696.98 earlier
in the day.
Federal judge hands
Samsung setback against Apple
NEW YORK In a preliminary move, a federal judge has
denied Samsungs request for a ban on imports of the iPhone,
iPad and iPod.
Its another setback for Samsung in a globe-spanning legal
battle, where each company is accusing the other of violating
its patents.
A judge at the International Trade Commission in
Washington ruled Friday that Apple doesnt violate four
Samsung patents. The judge also found that the patents dont
apply to any domestic industry. That will make it harder for
Samsung to press the case before the full commission, says
patent litigation expert Florian Mueller.
Three weeks ago, a jury in California ruled that Samsung
owes Apple $1.05 billion for violating patents on features of
the iPhone and iPad.

The last couple of years, the
Encinal High School Jets have
been notorious for giving Serra
football headaches.
The Jets can consider Friday
afternoons beat down a bit of pay-
back.
Serra dominated and then some
against the team from Alameda in
handing them a 56-7 shelling. The
Padres led 28-0 after one quarter
and come the fourth, the football
game was nished under a running
clock. Serra racked up 404 yards
on offense and returned two punts
for touchdowns. It was as close to
a complete football game as youre
ever going to see by the Padres
all three facets of the games were
near awless.
In football, you cant take any-
thing for granted, said Serra coach
Patrick Walsh. We had a tough
challenge with the start time, but
Im glad our guys were able to take
advantage of this opportunity to
mature.
The defense had to take over
this season, said Serra linebacker
Peter Tuipulotu. This year, Serra
is going to be known for our
defense how fast we are to the
ball and how hard we hit. This
year, we were looking forward to
this game. They always put up a
ght. We came out and punched
them in the mouth right out of the
gate.
Serra started with a bang, scor-
ing on their rst offensive drive
after forcing -12 yards of offense
from Encinal. It took the Padres
four plays and 49 yards in less than
a minute of offense, for Eric
Redwood to hop into the end zone
from a yard out. The Padres ran
three plays of 10 yards or more on
that drive.
Theyd score their second touch-
down without touching the ball
offensively. Actually, their next
two scores were without a snap
from center.
After pushing back Encinal two
yards to force a punt, Easop
Winston corralled the football and
took the kick 60 yards down the
left sideline for a Serra touchdown.
The Jets actually gained
yardarge on their next drive, but a
4th-and-7 forced another punt.
This time, Kavapele Maka did the
honors, sprung by a huge Tyson
Terreros block near the Encinal
sideline. No. 7 turned on his jets
and ashed into the end zone from
55 yards away to make it 21-0 with
a little more than ve minutes left
in the rst quarter.
The Serra defense denitely set
the tone, playing with some seri-
ous intensity from the opening

To say the Half Moon Bay offense struggled
Friday night against host South City would be
an understatement.
The Cougars managed just ve rst downs
against a strong Warriors defense, which lim-
ited Half Moon Bay to just 90 yards of total
offense. Luckily for the Cougars, their
defense and special teams picked up the slack.
Despite not scoring an offensive touchdown,
Half Moon Bay managed to post a 17-2 victo-
ry over South City.
Its always nice to get a win, said Keith
Holden, Half Moon Bays rst-year coach.
Oh and three is not a pretty way to start (a
season). But our kids have been believers and
resilient despite all the changes on campus.
South City (1-2) did a great job on defense
and the offense played well at times, moving
the ball consistently. But six Warrior turnovers
killed any chance of winning, one of which
was returned by Jose Herrera for a touchdown
midway through the third quarter to give the
Cougars their nal margin of victory.
South City coach Frank Moro was nearly at
a loss for words following the disappointing
loss.
It didnt work out for us, Moro said. I
really cant explain this game.
Moro said his team was missing a number
of starters due to injury and there were some
disciplinary problems as well during the
week.
We had a difcult week (in practice) this
week, Moro said.
The Half Moon Bay defense set the tone
early. After South City picked up an initial
rst down on the rst drive of the game, the
Warriors were forced to punt from their 39.
The snap, however, slipped through the hands

A year ago at the Scott Roche Invitational
Water Polo Tournament, the Menlo Knights
snapped a ve-year drought and captured their
fth tournament title.
Friday, the Knights looked every bit the
defending champion, defeating Mt. Carmel 12-
1 in Game 1 of the prestigious tournament.
Were not really thinking about defending
the title, said Menlo coach Jack Bowen. This
is a brand new year, its a brand new tourna-
ment. We have a couple new, very tough teams,
but it really a nice way to come out and play
our system and play our system well.
Such is the Menlo system that year in and
year out the Knights reload and rene their
play in the pool. And the rst reports out of the
Menlo camp is that 2012 will be no different.
The Knights jumped out to a 6-0 lead after
one quarter of play and carried that momentum
to the victory. More impressive than their 12-
goal output was their defense Mt. Carmel
did not nd the back of the net until the 4:32
mark in the fourth quarter; a lapse of 19:28.
Its one of the cornerstones of our program.
Our team-oriented defense, Bowen said. I
think rst of all, our guys are really aware on
our team defense that theyre taking the
momentum from our defense and transferring
that immediately into our offense on the count-
er attack. But whats really important to see,
and what takes a little time, is to get that spac-
ing. What were essentially trying to create is a
6-on-5 a the end of our counter attack. And
thats what I mean by 85 percent, thats some-
thing they did very well in that game.
Menlo was deadly on that counter in the rst
quarter.

SAN FRANCISCO The overwhelming
consensus on San Franciscos elite defense is
that Calvin Johnson is the best wide receiver
the 49ers will face. And perhaps the best there
is, period.
They kept the man known as Megatron out
of the end zone last season, and that will be
the No. 1 priority again Sunday night in a
Week 2 conference showdown at Candlestick
Park in the defending NFC West champion
Niners home opener.
And the coaches plan to play nice this time,
too. When the 49ers rallied for a 25-19 win at
Ford Field last October to hand the Lions their
rst loss following a 5-0 start, Jim Harbaugh
enraged Detroit coach Jim Schwartz with a
rm backslap and handshake and the two
even had to be separated
coming off the eld.
Were both NFC teams.
Were both 1-0. We were
both playoff teams last
year, Schwartz said. Last
year doesnt matter.
While everyone has long
since moved on, or so they
say, San Francisco tight
end Vernon Davis
acknowledges that moment did plenty to re
up the 49ers going forward.
Im sure Coach Harbaughs not worried
about that. Its in the back of his mind, Davis
said. We dont need any distractions. ...
Coaches get upset just like the players. I dont
think its a big deal. It just makes the game

MIAMI Following a midday practice in
steamy sunshine, Miami Dolphins defensive
tackle Randy Starks sat at his locker peeling
off sweat-soaked gear as beads of perspiration
dripped from his nose and beard.
Someone asked if he likes playing in hot
weather.
No, Starks said. Not at all.
After four years in Miami, Starks still nds
uncomfortable the subtropical climate that
makes football an especially sticky business.
The forecast for the Dolphins home opener
Sunday against Oakland calls for tempera-
tures approaching Starks uniform number
94 and high humidity, too.
The Dolphins have practiced in such weath-
er since training camp began, but as Starks
noted, games are when the heats really on.
It takes its toll in the second half, he said.
With the adrenaline going, its going to be
much more intense than practice. You just
have to deal with it, especially in the fourth
quarter. We cant be the ones that fold.
Theyve got to be the ones.
At home of late, the Dolphins have been the
team to fade. Over the past three years theyre
9-15 in Miami, which helps explain why they
nished below .500 each of those seasons.
The Dolphins are eager to re-establish a
home-eld advantage, but they begin every
season saying the same thing, and they
havent won a home opener since 2005.
Were anticipating that were going to have
a great home-eld advantage, new coach Joe
Philbin said. Hopefully our fans will

PHOENIX Hunter Pence hit a grand
slam, Matt Cain dodged trouble for ve-plus
innings and the San Francisco Giants beat the
Arizona Diamondbacks 6-2 on Friday night.
Cain (14-5) walked three in the rst and
stranded five runners over the first two
innings. He failed to make it through six
innings for the second time in his last three
starts.
The right-hander allowed four hits, walked
a season-high ve and also hit a batter. He was
charged with one run and struck out two.
Buster Posey and reliever Santiago Casilla
each drove in a run for the NL West-leading
Giants, who won for the third time in four
games and are 11-5 in their past 16.
Chris Johnson drove in both runs for the
Diamondbacks. Tyler Skaggs (1-2) allowed
ve runs and ve hits in four innings after last-
ing only three innings in his previous start
against San Diego on Sept. 7.
Cain loaded the bases in the first and
allowed the rst two runners to each in the
second but escaped without surrendering a
run.
Skaggs got into trouble in the third, and the
Giants capitalized.
Cain had a leadoff walk and moved to sec-
ond on Marco Scutaros one-out ineld single.
After Pablo Sandoval singled to center to load
the bases, Buster Posey hit a grounder to third
and Cain slid under Dan Wheelers throw on a
close play to make it 1-0.
Pence followed with a long drive into the
left-eld stands for his fourth homer since he
was acquired from Philadelphia at the trade
deadline. It was No. 21 overall for the season.
The Diamondbacks nally broke through in
the sixth. Cain hit Miguel Montero in the foot
and Justin Upton singled to right. Cain then
gave way to Jose Mijares, who yielded an RBI
single to right by pinch-hitter Chris Johnson.
Giants beat Arizona
OAKLAND Yoenis Cespedes hit a two-
run homer while playing with a sore right
wrist, and the AL wild card-leading Oakland
Athletics beat Baltimore 3-2 on Friday night
to prevent the Orioles from moving into sole
possession of rst place in the AL East.
Jonny Gomes hit a go-ahead RBI single in
the fth to back As rookie Tommy Milone in
the opener of a key series between playoff
contenders. Oakland (83-61) received a club-
house visit before the game from pitcher
Brandon McCarthy, more than a week after he
was struck in the head with a line drive and
underwent surgery.
The Orioles (81-63) remained tied atop the
division with the New York Yankees, who lost
6-4 at home to Tampa Bay.
Milone (13-10) allowed one earned run
over 6 1-3 innings to win for the fourth time
in five starts. He induced three double
plays, allowed six hits, struck out two and
walked two. His 13 wins are an Oakland
rookie record.
As starters have walked three or fewer bat-
ters in 43 straight games.
McCarthy, the teams opening-day starter,
was hit in the head by a liner from the Angels
Erick Aybar on Sept. 5 and underwent surgery.
He was released from the hospital Tuesday.
Gomes had everybody sign a batting helmet
for the pitcher with the words heads up
written on the bill.
Cespedes, the rookie from Cuba, connected
for his 19th home run. That gave Oakland 85
homers since the All-Star break.
Cespedes played left field and batted
cleanup a day after leaving a loss to the
Angels in the fth inning after injuring his
right wrist on a slide.
Im going to rest after we get a champi-
onship, Cespedes said. Im going to be in
the lineup every day.
Chris Davis then tied it at 2 when he hit his
26th home run leading off the fth.

LAS VEGAS Just the idea of a big 160-
pound ght had promoter Bob Arum remi-
niscing about the 1980s, when Marvelous
Marvin Hagler and Thomas Hearns took on all
comers and middleweights ruled the boxing
world.
Saturday nights ght between Julio Cesar
Chavez Jr. and Sergio
Martinez isnt exactly
Hagler-Hearns, but it is
intriguing enough to get
boxing fans excited about
the middleweight division
again.
Chavez defends the
piece of the 160-pound
title Martinez believes
should still be his when
they meet in a ght that
seems quite personal to
both. Theres a good
chance the ght could turn
into an old-fashioned
brawl, the prospect of
which was enough to sell
out the 19,000-seat UNLV
campus arena for the
Mexican Independence
Day weekend bout.
Chavez Jr. is ghting to
escape from the shadow of
his father, the legendary
Julio Cesar Chavez, and establish himself as
one of the new stars of the sport. Martinez is
trying to solidify his position as the best mid-
dleweight in the world, and dispatch a ghter
he doesnt think even deserves to be in a title
ght.
At the nal pre-ght news conference, they
traded verbal shots, with Martinez about as
angry about an opponent as any ghter can
get.
It will not be an easy knockout, Martinez
said. I will punish him a lot and after that I
will knock him out.
Martinez is a 2-1 favorite in the scheduled
12-round bout, which will be for the WBC
title that Martinez held before being stripped
of it by the ratings organization. Chavez ended
up fighting for the vacated title against
Sebastian Zbik, part of the reason Martinez
says he has a lot of animosity toward him.
It is very simple. I cannot accept the fact he
is world champion, Martinez said. The only
reason he is world champion is because he is
Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., the son of the legend,
and his mouth is so big even bigger than his
own brain and hes talking too much.
The ght is part of a big boxing night in this
gambling city that also features Mexican sen-
sation Saul Canelo Alvarez in a 154-pound
title defense against Josesito Lopez a few
blocks away at the MGM Grand hotel. The
Chavez-Martinez ght will be broadcast on
HBO pay-per-view at a suggested price of
$49.95, while the Alvarez ght will be broad-
cast without an extra charge on Showtime.
Aside from their obvious dislike for each
other, the ght between Chavez and Martinez
offers some other good storylines.
Martinez is a late bloomer, a 37-year-old
Argentine who in recent years has fought his
way to the top of the middleweight division.
Hes a lefty with a style thats hard to counter,
though his chin his questionable and he has
been on the canvas in some of his ghts.
Chavez is taller and gures to outweigh
Martinez on ght night after struggling to
make the 160-pound weight limit. Hes a big
puncher who has come into his own in the last
couple of years after being brought along very
slowly by matchmakers who liked his deter-
mination but werent sure he had the skills to
become a top ghter.
Now he brings an unbeaten record of 46-0-
1 into the ght and has become such an attrac-
tion to Mexican fans that the ght sold out
nearly a week early.
In the last two years hes demonstrated to
everyone hes capable, Arum said. Theres a
lot of big things ahead if Julio is successful in
this ght. We think hell become one of the
biggest attractions in boxing, on the level of a
(Manny) Pacquiao or (Floyd) Mayweather.
Chavez is coming off perhaps his best per-
formance, stopping a tough Andy Lee in the
seventh round June 16 to defend his title.
Chavez trailed early in that ght but came on
strong and dominated Lee physically before
nally stopping him.
He hadnt had a lot of experience with
southpaws and he fought that ght great,
trainer Freddie Roach said. After that ght
we knew it was time to step up. We knew
Martinez was a southpaw. We know how to
ght a southpaw now and his father and I have
been coming up with a game plan.
Part of that game plan was getting Chavez
to the gym, something that proved difcult as
documented in the HBO 24/7 prefight
series. Roach was left waiting at the gym sev-
eral times, but says Chavez eventually put in
enough work to get him in shape for Martinez.
I had to wait in the gym for him a few
times, but for a world champion I will wait,
Roach said.
Chavez is guaranteed $3 million for the
ght, while Martinez is getting $1.4 million
plus a portion of the pay-per-view. The payout
reflects the popularity of Chavez, though
Martinez wanted the ght so badly he said he
is not troubled by being paid less money than
his relatively unproven opponent.
Chavez will get more money, he said, but
hes going to get more of a beating, too.
Its getting personal:

whistle. Encinal didnt gain its initial rst down until its third
drive of the game as opposed to the Padres who ran nine plays
on offense during the rst quarter, seven of which were on rst
down and the other on second. Matt Dickerson on the defensive
line practically set up camp in the Encinal backeld the entire
rst half.
We made it tough for them, Tuipulotu said. The defensive
line had their best game. We did what we had to do and came out
on top. We played our A game on defense.
Serras nal play of the half was a Kava Cassidy 1-yard touch-
down bulldoze into the end zone. His score came on the heels of
a 5-play, 55-yard drive set up by a big 28-yard run of his own
doing. It was the beginning of a big day for No. 8, who rushed for
65 yards on six carries and three touchdowns. The score was 28-
0 after one period and the game was all but over.
Come the second quarter, it wasnt about quick strikes for
Serra. Its rst drive of the period ended in a turnover, probably the
Padres lone mistake of the game.
But Kazakoff more than made up for that error on the next pos-
session, commanding the Padres downeld on a 10-play, 72-yard
gem of a touchdown drive. Redwood did the honors, carrying the
football over the goal line to make it 35-0 after the Anthony Toms
extra point. The half ended with that score and the stats spoke of
the domination: Serra outgained Encinal 216-4 158 yards on
the ground and 58 in the air. Encinal gained two rst downs;
Serra had 11.
The Padres picked up right where they left off to start the third
quarter. Gregory Newbeck came in at quarterback and led the
Padres on a 5-play, 55-yard drive capped off by Cassidys second
touchdown of the day.
Encinal did get on the board when Corey Sails set the Jets up
with great eld position on the ensuing Serra kickoff. Four plays
later, Tyrell Carrigan made it 42-7.
But that would be all she wrote for the Jets.
Newbeck scored on a keeper with 4:32 left in the third quarter
after an 8-play, 62-yard drive to make it 49-7.
The Padres nished off their touchdown barrage on the rst
play of the fourth quarter with Cassidy tallying his third.

of the South City punter. Half Moon Bays
Ben Thornton scooped it up and was dragged
down at the Warriors 6-yard line.
The South City defense stood tall, however,
and the Cougars had to settle for a 20-yard
Eulalio Mata eld goal to give them a 3-0 with
7:38 left in the rst quarter.
Obviously we want six (points in that situ-
ation), Holden said. But we came away with
points. Its not about the last play, its about
the next play.
That was four minutes into the game. We
still had a whole football game left to play.
After the teams exchanged punts, South
City took over at its own 44 and got a huge
break when the Cougars were called for
defensive holding as the Warriors punted.
It was short-lived, however, as the Warriors
fumbled the ball on a hook-and-lateral play
which was recovered by Half Moon Bay. The
Cougars eventually punted, but pinned the
Warriors at their own 2.
South City nally looked like it had found
its rhythm offensively. Starting from the 2, the
Warriors methodically marched downeld,
but on the 16th play of the drive which had
taken nearly eight minutes off the clock bridg-
ing the first and second quarters the
Warriors fumbled the ball away yet again.
Again, Half Moon Bay could do nothing
with it and the teams went into halftime with
the Cougars leading 3-0.
South City caught a break early in the third
quarter when the Cougars lined up to punt on
their rst possession of the second half. The
snap sailed over the punters head and into the
end zone, where he kicked it out of the back
of the end zone for a safety.
Turns out those would be the only points of
the night for the Warriors.
The Half Moon Bay defense forced South
City into a punting situation on its next drive
and again the Cougars special teams came
through with a big play. The snap was a
ground ball to the punter and by the time he
picked it up and stepped forward to kick it, it
was blocked by Mata. John Bali scooped up
the loose ball and bolted 25 yards for the score
and a 10-2 Half Moon Bay lead.
By that time, everything was going wrong
for South City. The Warriors dropped the ball
on three straight plays on their ensuing drive,
the last of which was picked up Herrera who
returned it 25 yards for the nal score of the
night.
Despite all the negatives, South City still
had a shot. The Warriors drove the length of
the eld, starting at their own 12 with 9:51
left, but they came up short on fourth-and-
goal at the 1-yard line. They got the ball back
with 1:31 and were looking to end the game
on a positive note, but the game ended with
South City at the Half Moon Bay 14-yard line.
We still had a chance to win, Moro said.

McCarthy visits As teammates
OAKLAND Oakland Athletics pitcher
Brandon McCarthy stopped by the clubhouse to
visit his teammates Friday, just more than a
week after getting hit in the head with a line
drive.
He was his usual jokester and worked on a
crossword puzzle.
I told him he should ll in a crossword and
put a bunch of letters backward, reliever Jerry
Blevins said. He said, Ill ll all the slots in
with smiley faces. It was really fun. Hes still the
same old guy.
Everybody was really excited to see him and
I think he was very excited to see us, too. Theres
just nothing that compares to the clubhouse
atmosphere and just having him back and being
around the guys, its hard to beat that, he said.
McCarthy underwent two hours of surgery
late on Sept. 5 after he was hit in the right side of
the head earlier in the day by a liner from the Los
Angeles Angels Erick Aybar. The right-hander
and Oaklands opening day starter was released
from the hospital Tuesday.
The 29-year-old McCarthy sustained an
epidural hemorrhage, brain contusion and skull
fracture on the play. The pitcher wasnt available
to the media Friday.
Outelder Jonny Gomes had an As batting
helmet signed by all of McCarthys teammates
with heads up written on the bill for the pitch-
er.
Upon being discharged from the hospital,
McCarthy said he hopes to return to the mound.
Blevins said everyone shook McCarthys hand
and gave him a hug after players made their way
inside following batting practice before the
series opener with the Baltimore Orioles.
There was an overall cheer, I would assume,
from all of us, Blevins said. Everybody just
kind of waited their turn and people got to talk to
him.

Alexander Carlisle began the scoring barrage with a goal at
5:25 after an exclusion. The man-advantage was set up by the
counter was a sign of things to come.
A little over a minute later, Cameron Walker scored two sec-
onds into another exclusion on a pretty pass by Micah Rosales.
Nick Bisconti scored off a nifty turn-and-shoot at the 1:30
mark to make it 3-0. The last three goals of the quarter for
Menlo came in the nal 60 seconds with Bisconti scoring
twice more and Chris Xi nding twine from just inside ve
meters with seven seconds left in the quarter.
We spend an inordinate amount of time on our counter attack
as far as our spacing and where were going, Bowen said. As
well as our awareness of getting into the counter. And that, to
me, we did very well. Were at about 85 percent right now
which is great, its only our second game of the season. So that
was really important to see.
Mt. Carmel appeared to settle down in the second quarter.
While they got nothing going on offense, they limited the
Knights to just another Rosales goal to make it 7-0 at the half.
The Menlo offense might have slowed down, but not its
defense. The Knights added goals by Carlisle and Bisconti in
the third quarter before Mt. Carmel nally found the back of the
net.
[Its] knowing when to leave the guy out that youre respon-
sible for to help a teammate or create a defensive pocket near
the center to force the offense to throw the ball to another area
so they can run a different split, Bowen said. So actually its a
relatively complex type of defense. So, the fact that they were
doing that, not only doing it in the Xs and Os manner, but it
takes a lot of energy, you really have to be committed to that.
Menlo capped off the win with goals by Andreas Katsis, Nick
dAlencon and Gregor Yock.
The Knights last repeated as champions of the Roche
Invitational in 2005 and 2006.

Spain sweeps U.S. in
singles for 2-0 Davis Cup lead
GIJON, Spain Even without facing Rafael Nadal, the
United States is on the brink of elimination by the clay-court
masters from Spain.
Sam Querrey and John Isner lost their opening singles
matches Friday, giving the defending champions a 2-0 lead
in the Davis Cup seminals.
David Ferrer put the hosts ahead in the best-of-ve series
with a 4-6, 6-2, 6-2, 6-4 win over Querrey. Nicolas Almagro
beat Isner 6-4, 4-6, 6-4, 3-6, 7-5 to leave Spain one point
from its fourth nal in ve years.
Almagro overcame 25 aces from Isner, who saved three
match points before hitting a forehand long.
The U.S. must win the doubles match Saturday to stay in
the series, with brothers Mike and Bob Bryan facing Marcel
Granollers and Marc Lopez. The Bryan twins are 4-0 when
the U.S. has faced a 2-0 decit, and 5-0 against Spain.
Reverse singles are Sunday. Spain is playing without
injured Rafael Nadal, and the U.S. is without Andy Roddick,
who retired after the U.S. Open.
The United States has only rallied back to win from a 0-2
decit once in 38 series in 1934 against Australia. Since
the start of World Group play, Spain is 37-0 after winning
both opening singles.
The winner plays either Argentina or the Czech Republic
in the nal in November.

will embrace this team and what theyre doing
and help us create that advantage. I think its on all
of us to create that spirit, momentum and positive
direction and build this thing back up.
More than the weather should work in the
Dolphins favor against Oakland. After losing to
San Diego in the NFLs nal season opener
Monday night, the Raiders must y 2,500 miles
for a game that will start at 10 a.m. California
time.
The Raiders might as well get used to it.
Theyre scheduled to travel 28,692 air miles this
season, the most in the NFL, and theyll play ve
games in the Eastern time zone, the most in fran-
chise history.
Getting the necessary rest beforehand will be
the most difcult challenge, quarterback Carson
Palmer said.
When you change time zones, you cant get to
sleep when its 11 oclock there, he said. Its 8
oclock for your body.
But, Palmer added, the Raiders are ready for
the road after their opening defeat.
Were not thinking West to East, time-zone
change, humidity, he said. Were thinking about
a chance to play football and get to 1-1 and get a
bad taste out of our mouths.
Miami also seeks to rebound. The Dolphins
30-10 loss at Houston was their most lopsided
season-opening defeat since 1988.
But poor starts are nothing new for the
Dolphins last year they lost their rst seven
games en route to a 6-10 season. Theyre 0-7 in
September at home since 2007, including a loss to
Oakland ve years ago.
We havent done a good enough job at home,
Miami tackle Jake Long said. Thats where
youve got to take your pride.
With the teams fortunes in decline, attendance
has been, too. The Dolphins lately have played
before thousands of empty seats at home, which
makes the atmosphere less than hostile for the
opposition.
Starks predicts the crowds will return when the
Dolphins start doing a better job of blocking and
tackling.
This fan base is really into football, he said.
Theyre just waiting for us to take care of busi-
ness and get a spark. Thats why right now we
dont have a packed house all the time. Once we
start winning, I can see there being nothing but
Dolphins fans in there.
Then the Dolphins could really turn up the heat.
There was a time when they were unbeatable in
Miami early in the season. From 1993 to 2002,
they won 17 straight home games in August and
September.
Players on those teams embraced the swelter-
ing late-summer weather as an advantage. But the
Dolphins of recent years havent played well
enough to make the visitors wilt.
If were banking on it being hot to win the
game, were banking on the wrong thing, defen-
sive end Jared Odrick said. For all we know, the
Raiders could be practicing inside a large sauna,
or a heat-infused bubble. So lets not even think
about an advantage with the weather.
RAIDERS
that much more interesting and that much
more exciting when you see coaches getting
red up like that. It denitely made me red up
for the next game. It was like, We got
Harbaugh going crazy like this? Oh, yeah, Im
all for him.
Schwartz and Harbaugh have seen each
other since and were civil.
Both will have plenty of other issues come
Sunday than to stew about mini-controver-
sies, as Harbaugh put it this week, from 11
months ago.
I do believe thats a thing of the past, 49ers
safety Donte Whitner said. Tempers were
aring. Coach was happy that we won. They
were probably upset that they lost in their
home. Each years a new year. But we do
expect a physical team, and we do expect a
physical game on Sunday. We understand that
they are upset coming up there last year and
beating them.
San Franciscos stingy defense already shut
down 2011 MVP Aaron Rodgers and the
Packers last week at Lambeau Field, where the
49ers snapped an eight-game losing streak
with their rst victory in Green Bay since
1990. Next challenge: Matthew Stafford,
another prolic passer with big-play potential,
and Johnson.
Johnson had seven catches for 113 yards in
last years meeting but didnt score. That after
he became the NFLs rst player with nine TD
receptions in the initial ve games of a season.
He had six catches with a 51-yarder
for 111 yards in Detroits 27-23 victory against
the Rams last week. Yet he was listed on the
injury report during this week with a foot prob-
lem.
I always get geeked up for games like this
because your backs against the wall, said
49ers cornerback Tarell Brown, who at 5-foot-
10 faces a signicant height disadvantage
defending the 6-5 Johnson.
Stafford threw for 355 yards against the
Rams last week, completing a 5-yard touch-
down pass to Kevin Smith for the winner with
10 seconds left. But he also threw three inter-
ceptions.
Obviously I cant do that again and expect
to win, Stafford said.
Stafford has now passed for at least 350
yards in four consecutive games, joining Drew
Brees as the only players to accomplish the
feat.
The 49ers already took Rodgers out of his
game. They sacked him three times and got a
game-changing interception from NaVorro
Bowman to set up Frank Gores late 23-yard
scoring run.
Each quarterback presents a different chal-
lenge, said San Francisco cornerback Carlos
Rogers, who shared the team lead with six
interceptions in 2011. Matt is a different chal-
lenge. He has one of the best receivers in the
league that hes going to get the ball to, going
to force the ball to no matter how many people
are on him. Thats our No. 1 target this week.

ife is notorious for being unpre-
dictable; it can present marvelous
opportunities or supply traumatic sit-
uations. In high school, the latter often seems
to be the more frequent.
But, many would say a
person who can over-
come these disadvantages
is worthy of admiration.
At Carlmont High
School, there are not only
students worthy of admi-
ration, there are students
worthy of admiration,
praise, gratitude and respect.
Students Offering Support (SOS) is a pro-
gram at Carlmont made up of students who
have undergone traumatic or challenging
experiences. However, instead of dwelling on
these experiences, they use their knowledge
to help peers who are going through similar
situations.
The program is run by Shelley Bustamante,
Carlmonts guidance counselor, along with
the help of co-presidents Christopher
Agbanusi and Miranda Santana. Also, there
are SOS members who lead subsections
which focus on specic categories, such as
LGBTQ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual,
Transsexual and Questioning) youth, hate
crimes, drug and alcohol abuse, sexual abuse
and death. Each subsection is often equipped
with members who have experience with
these topics and can sympathize with peers
as well as provide useful advice and informa-
tion.
Annually, members spend a week visiting
freshman history classes to speak about the
importance of topics such as safe sex, aca-
demic success and healthy relationships.
Although the awareness and support they
provide within the school is important, SOS
members are more than a hub for information
and people willing to lend a sympathetic ear;
they like to see themselves as a family.

Love it or hate it: Here
Comes Honey Boo Boo
By Kate Brumback
MCINTYRE, Ga. The reality show Here
Comes Honey Boo Boo has been a ratings win-
ner in recent weeks, capitalizing on redneck
stereotypes and the oversized personality of a 6-
year-old beauty pageant regular. But some
who live nearby are concerned about the
way their quiet pocket of central Georgia is
being portrayed on the TLC series.
The show centers around Alana Honey
Boo Boo Thompson, her mother June
Shannon and their family. The round-
cheeked second-grader, who previously
appeared on the TLC show Toddlers &
Tiaras, has a penchant for outrageous
catchphrases A dolla makes me holla!
and You better redneckognize! that
have gone viral and raised some eyebrows.
Yet as the show attracts healthy audiences
for a TLC series from two to three mil-
lion weekly it has also drawn strong
reactions. Some say it exploits and
mocks small-town people and perpetu-
ates offensive stereotypes of life in the
South. Others criticize the parenting
involved. Still others insist the series
shows a loving family that doesnt
let outside opinions bother them.
In an interview with the
Associated Press this week, Alana
said lming the show was fun
because she got to do things she
doesnt always get to do, like
going to a water park. Her
mother said the family has
enjoyed doing the show and
believes the way its edited
portrays their unscripted life

DAILY JOURNAL SENIOR CORRESPONDENT
SIX LINES OF FLIGHT AT THE SAN
FRANCISCO MUSEUM OF MODERN
ART. The art world is no longer dened by a
few primary art centers, but is now composed
of many centers, small and large, that possess
distinctive histories, constituencies and ethnic
backgrounds. In recognition of this, The San
Francisco Museum of Modern Art presents
Six Lines of Flight: Shifting Geographies in
Contemporary Art, bringing together 70
works by artists from six cities around the
globe that have become burgeoning artistic
centers: Beirut, Lebanon; Cali, Colombia;
Cluj-Napoca, Romania; Ho Chi Minh City,
Vietnam; San Francisco; and Tangier,
Morocco. The title Six Lines of Flight refers
to the six featured cities and also to the work
of French philosophers Gilles Deleuze and
Flix Guattari, who coined the term line of
ight to refer to a pathway leading to new
connections, experiences and forms of knowl-
edge.
Exhibition Organizer Apsara DiQuinzio,
SFMOMA assistant curator of painting and
sculpture, said, Six Lines of Flight convenes
artists who have created and helped build
diverse organizations on a grassroots level in
six cities around the world, presenting works
that index the distinctive histories and cultur-
al character of each location. Through the cul-
tivation of new connections among these dis-
parate regions, the exhibition itself emerges as
another cross-cultural platform.
BEIRUT, LEBANON. Art in Beirut now
thrives due in part to small institutions such as
the Beirut Art Center, founded by Lamia
Joreige and Sandra Dagher in 2009. The cen-
ter, which promotes local artists and brings
important international gures to Beirut, hosts
exhibitions, screenings, performances and
educational workshops, and houses a
mediathque an important digital multime-
dia archive for about 100 artists from all over
the Arab world.
CALI, COLOMBIA. During the last 10
years, a ourishing contemporary art scene
has developed in Colombia, a country associ-
ated with drug war violence and related con-
icts with guerrillas and paramilitaries. The
strife present in many Colombian lives is a
critical issue that Colombian artists address in
their work. Artistic collectives in Cali have
helped establish a vital community, beginning
with Ciudad Solar in the 1970s, a group that
included Oscar Muoz and Luis Ospina.
CLUJ-NAPOCA, ROMANIA. Over the
last couple decades, the art scene in Romania
has become one of the most vibrant and active
among countries in the former Eastern Bloc.
The political history of a country in radical
transition continues to be an important subject
for those living in the wake of Nicolai
Ceauescus reign of terror (196589).
HO CHI MINH CITY, VIETNAM. The
art scene in Vietnam has become increasingly
identied with Ho Chi Minh City, largely due
to the formation of Sn Art, an independent
art space initiated in 2007 by four Vietnamese
artists Tiffany Chung, Dinh Q. L, Tuan
Andrew Nguyen and Phunam all of whom
were primarily raised in the United States
after their families ed the war. The four
attended art schools in the United States, then
returned to live and work in Ho Chi Minh City
over the last two decades. Sn Art has brought
many international artists and curators to Ho
Chi Minh City for the rst time and regularly
presents the work of local Vietnamese artists.
SAN FRANCISCO. In the last decade, San
Francisco has seen a rise in new
galleries opened by young indi-
viduals, who have brought a
renewed interest to the citys art
scene. Additionally, a number
of collectives have formed,
chief among them
Futurefarmers, a collective of
teachers, researchers, design-
ers, gardeners, scientists, engi-
neers and illustrators, who
work collaboratively on artistic
projects that challenge current
social, political and economic
systems. Begun in 1995 by
Amy Francheschini, it has
grown over the years to include
Dan Allende, Ian Cox, Sascha
Merg, Josh On, Stijn
Schiffeleers and Michael
Swaine.
TANGIER, MOROCCO. In
Tangier, the Cinmathque de Tanger (CdT),
run by the artist Yto Barrada since 2005, has
introduced Moroccan lm to both local and
international artists, while also presenting
important international lms to Moroccans.
The Cinmathque has played a vital part in
conserving Moroccan, North African and
Arab film and video in the country and
abroad. Themes present in Barradas own
work include issues concerning living in
Tangier and along the Strait of Gibraltar, a
major gateway between Africa and Europe, as
well as Moroccos postcolonial relationship to
France.
The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art
is located at 151 Third St., near the Moscone
Center. For information call (415) 357-4000

Save Your Home
By John DeFore
LOS ANGELES A high-school
reunion story that spreads attention
among its high-prole cast members
more evenly than the average lm of this
sort, Jamie Lindens 10 Years is dedi-
cated to the urge to believe that a single
get-together can afford closure on every-
thing from prom night disappointments
to misguided life choices. More bitter-
sweet than funny but not a downer over-
all, the pic has reasonable prospects with
young viewers who havent seen many
of its thematic ancestors.
Lindens script spreads the subplots
around heavily, the movies main identi-
cation is with Jake (Channing Tatum,
who just so happens to be a producer),
who loves girlfriend Jess (Tatums wife,
Jenna Dewan-Tatum) but cant decide
when to pop the question. Bringing Jess
along to his 10-year reunion, hes us-
tered to see high school sweetheart Mary
(Rosario Dawson) and the husband (Ron
Livingston) he didnt know she had.
Buzzing around Jake in a urry of so
good to see you!s are old classmates
who became rock stars (Oscar Isaac),
moved to the big city (Justin Long), or
simply decided to grow up and stop bul-
lying nerds (Chris Pratt, helped by
unusually tolerant wife Ari Graynor). As
usual with a large ensemble, recounting
the subplots (and even the characters)
would take a while, but only a couple of
key cast members get lost in the shufe
(sorry, Anthony Mackie).
Among the more successful through-
lines is a second-chance courtship
between Isaacs rock star and the only
girl at the reunion (Kate Mara), who
isnt fawning over him, and, it turns out,
has never even heard his hit song.
Among the least pleasing is one in which
Pratt tries to make amends with every
nerd he ever belittled, winds up making
them deeply uncomfortable, and eventu-
ally drinks himself into a full reversion
to jerk mode. If anybody could keep this
ball rolling, its Pratt, who in previous
roles has trained viewers to love him
despite many faults. Though were with
Pratt for a while, Linden soon forces him
to be more of a boor than we can take.
It wouldnt be a party without some
drunken unpleasantness, of course. And
10 Years benets from actors (like
Dawson) who can generate enough dis-
tractingly warm-hearted vibes to keep
the overall mood positive. This isnt a
new generations Big Chill and does-
nt try to be but its a good deal more
genuine-feeling than American
Reunion, whose characters graduated
just a couple of years earlier than this
crew but seem much closer to settling
into dull adulthood.
10 Years, an Anchor Bay
Entertainment release, is rated PG-13 for
language, alcohol abuse, some sexual
material and drug use. Running time:
100 minutes.
Motion Picture Association of
America rating denition for PG-13:

gested for children under 13. Some

A look at Tatums
five films this year
By Christy Lemire
LOS ANGELES If it seems like Channing Tatum is
everywhere, its probably because he is. Hes appeared in ve
lms this year alone, with the latest being this weekends
ensemble comedy-drama 10 Years. The roles have come in
every imaginable genre, each strikingly different from the last.
And hey, what do you know? Five is a magic number around
here. So lets rank Tatums 2012 performances, in order of
preference:
21 Jump Street: Comedy is so underappreciated, and
what Tatum does here is especially tough: He plays the straight
man opposite a much more established comedian, Jonah Hill.
(Who is, come to think of it, also the straight man.) And yet,
Tatum also has to let himself get a little goofy and toy with his
hunky image as the lm itself gets goofy, which he does with
great enthusiasm. Satirically inspired by the 80s TV series,
21 Jump Street features Tatum playing a former jock who
returns to high school as an undercover police ofcer along-
side his partner (Hill), the nerd he used to torment way back
when. Its rowdy and raunchy but Tatum and Hill share an
unexpectedly sweet chemistry.
Magic Mike: The perfect blend of Tatums muscular
good looks, dramatic ability and dance skills. Steven
Soderberghs behind-the-scenes look at the life of a male strip-
per also happens to be one thats close to Tatums heart: He
worked briey as an exotic dancer before breaking into acting.
Anyone who saw the original Step Up from 2006, the movie
that put Tatum on the map, knows what a gifted dancer he is.
But here, hes just mesmerizing: condent, creative, acrobatic
and, above all, seductive. Hes just as charismatic offstage,
though, as he shows a young Alex Pettyfer the ropes and tries
to show Pettyfers sister hes a good guy after all. Tatum also
enjoys a couple of intense showdowns with Matthew
McConaughey as the swaggering strip club owner.
The Vow: Tatum shows his romantic leading-man side in
this old-fashioned, heart-tugging amnesia story. He stars as
Leo, who struggles to remind his wife, Paige (Rachel
McAdams), that they were happily in love after a car accident
wipes out the last ve years of her memories. Tatum is saddled
with a whole lot of explanatory voicevoer, full of obvious plat-
itudes about life being a series of moments of impact, blah
blah blah, but his sense of ache and sorrow is believable. Its a
nice idea: experiencing what its like to fall in love all over
again for the rst time. Tatum and McAdams sometimes make
the execution of it more tolerable than it should be, but not
often enough. This movie was hugely popular, grossing near-
ly $200 million when it came out back in February. I found it
contrived and treacly because Im cold and soulless.

This is who she is, Shannon said as her
daughter interrupted her with silly jokes and
giggles. This is her everyday life. Shes got her
own little personality, especially like when the
cameras come on and when shes got attention.
Alana, who turned 7 late last month after lm-
ing ended, was friendly and playful, though a bit
distracted, during her second national media
interview of the day. Like so many kids her age,
she likes to be the center of attention, and when
she said or did something funny, shed look
around to gauge the reaction of those around
her. She whined to her mother about not want-
ing to go to school, but nally headed out the
door to join her classmates in a tan dress and
strappy silver sandals with little heels.
The tiny town of McIntyre is nestled in a rural
county that is a major exporter of kaolin, a
chalky clay used in a wide range of products,
including cosmetics, medicines, catalytic con-
verters for vehicles and heat shields on space
shuttles. The towns population is around 650
and nearly 40 percent of the families had an
income that put them below the poverty level,
according to 2010 Census numbers. Main Street
stretches for about three blocks and features a
small handful of businesses.
The show has portrayed the area unfairly,
choosing to xate on shots of junk cars, garbage
dumps and stray animals, Wilkinson County
Chamber of Commerce president Jonathan
Jackson said in a statement, adding that hed
like to see more of the regions positive attrib-
utes on the air.
You cant very well ask and expect a televi-
sion network to possess tact and taste unless
it makes them a dollar, he said.
Among the more than two dozen locals
approached by the AP, the most common reac-
tion to the series was that, for better or worse, it
has put McIntyre on the map. Many said they
watch and enjoy the show, though most didnt
necessarily think it represents the way most
people in the area live.
I dont mind it, its just that it doesnt give a
good image for the county since it is a small
county, and its a really family-oriented county,
and we are basically, you know, church goers
down here, and a lot of the things they do ... we
dont agree with it, said Carolyn Snead, a
McIntyre resident who works as a tax preparer.
But she thinks Alana is funny and adorable and
that if the show helps her succeed, its worth-
while.
Tommy Floyd used to live near the family in
nearby Toomsboro and has ridden four-wheel
all-terrain vehicles with them and called them
good people to be around.
They dont put on, he said. Thats every-
thing they do every day. It aint just put on for
the show. Anita McGahee owns a ower and
gift shop near the familys home and said sever-
al fans have stopped by her shop to buy stuffed
animals or balloons for Alana or her 17-year-old
sister Anna, who recently had a baby. She said
she knows the family and called them simple,
country people.
It bothers me a little that people might think
that thats what everyone here is like. Its like we
all dont have any manners, she said, but that
doesnt stop McGahee from going to her moth-
ers house every Wednesday evening to watch
the show.
Homer Rawls lives in nearby Gordon and said
hes not too worried about the show making
people in other parts of the country think all
Southerners are backward rednecks.
They already think that, he joked. It kind
of makes country folks look a little bad, but its
done in fun.
Some people who stopped by a gas station
convenience store to pick up a burger or barbe-
cue for lunch said they didnt want to discuss it,
while others blasted the familys behavior. But
in this close-knit community where most people
know each other at least a little bit and word
travels fast, none of those with strong negative
opinions were willing to give their names.
Since the show premiered last month, online
criticism has focused on the familys behavior,
weight and diet which often includes junk
food and sometimes a mixture of Mountain
Dew and Red Bull they call go-go juice.
Many online commenters liken it to a train
wreck they cant stop watching because theyre
shocked and horried.
When the show began, Shannon said she was
concerned about online criticism of her family
and the way she parents, but she said she does-
nt go online much these days unless one of her
friends or a fan alerts her to a particular story.
She said she also knows opinions in town are
mixed.
Its small town living, she said. I dont
have any trouble with anybody here or whatev-
er, but people are going to have opinions. I
mean, thats everyday life.
Executive producer Lauren Lexton rejects
accusations that the show is exploiting the fam-
ily or playing on stereotypes. The show has
been so popular, she said, because the family
members clearly love each other and strike a
chord with the audience.
They seem outrageous, but then once you
get to know them, you really relate to them and
like them, she said.
Shannon declined to disclose how much TLC
is paying them for each episode, saying only,
We are very well compensated. But the
money isnt going toward lavish purchases and
is instead divided into equal trusts for each of
the four kids, she said. The family still lives on
the money Shannons partner, Mike Sugar
Bear Thompson, makes from his job in the
nearby chalk mines and has no plans to move
from the modest house they lived in before the
show, Shannon said.
The shows one-hour season nale is Sept. 26.
TLC isnt saying yet whether it will do a second
season of the hit show, but Shannon isnt con-
cerned.

Santana said she has known fellow co-pres-
ident Agbanusi since second grade, however it
was not until they joined SOS and bonded
over their parental losses that they became
close friends.
I joined SOS as a freshman when my
mom had cancer because dealing with school
and going to the hospital every day was tough
and I needed an escape and someone to talk
to. ... Its cool all the hard work weve put
into the program has paid off and (Agbanusi
and I) are just closer now, said Santana.
Similarly, Agbanusi said, No one really
knew how I felt in middle school, but when I
joined SOS, there were people in there with
my same story who I could connect with. I
like being president of SOS, not because Im
the president, but because I hold things
together. My job is to keep us a family, and
make sure we get the job done and get our
message out to the world.
The program has provided a way for stu-
dents to come together and form a close-knit
group of peers who share the same passion
for using their experiences to help others.
As a family, SOS members have also been
known to bond inside and outside of school.
Spotting members spending time together at
the formal dance or sports events is ubiqui-
tous, a handful of members previously organ-
ized a breakfast club where they cooked
meals together every Wednesday morning
before school, and Bustamante held a holiday
party during the winter season for all of the
members at which they sipped cider, admired
neighbors Christmas decorations and cheered
each other on during a dance competition.
Steven Tsujisaka, a recent graduate who
was a member of SOS, said, SOS has not
only given me my condence back, but I have
learned what the most important key in life is
from them: the true meaning of family, life,
love and happiness. All of the friends Ive
accumulated in SOS have and always will be
more than friends; theyre the brothers and
sisters I never had. I will cherish all of the
buoyant, indelible memories I had with every-
one.

STUDENT
Haywire: In Tatums first pairing with
Soderbergh this year, he mainly had to act
like MMA superstar Gina Carano wasnt
going to beat the complete crap out of him.
At least, not immediately. Because she easi-
ly could have and she could have with all
her stars, including Michael Fassbender and
Ewan McGregor which required her to
hold back a little while doing her own stunts
here in her feature film debut. At the films
start, a hungover and impatient Tatum meets
up with Caranos character, a covert-ops spe-
cialist, after a mission in Barcelona. He was
her partner on the job, and he may or may
not be trustworthy. A tense conversation
quickly turns into a knock-down, drag-out
brawl in a small-town diner.
10 Years: His latest isnt exactly his best.
Then again, hes part of a large ensemble that
includes larger personalities, including Ari
Graynor, Chris Pratt and Anthony Mackie, and
his role is comparatively low-key and formu-
laic. Tatum plays one of several old friends
whove gathered for their 10-year high school
reunion. Hes brought with him his longtime
girlfriend (played by his real-life wife and
Step Up co-star, the equally gorgeous Jenna
Dewan). Hes also brought along the engage-
ment ring he plans to give her, but hes had
trouble nding the right opportunity to pop the
question plus, as we learn in one of the
lms many intertwined storylines, he still has
some emotional loose ends to tie up with his
ex-girlfriend (Rosario Dawson). Theres not
much to his character the prom-king-
turned-mortgage-broker, hes kind of a dud
but at least hes fun to look at, as always.

After running The Pantry on El Camino Real for more than 20
years, the family was forced to relocate when their landlord
decided not to renew their lease.
When the restaurant closed in May, Ramir Morales told his
saddened regulars that the family would try to nd a new loca-
tion. And they did. The new spot is a red-roofed building near
State Route 92 that was once home to the Peninsula Grill. A cus-
tomer saw a for-lease sign on the building and told the family
about it. The Morales family signed a two- to ve-year lease on
the property. This gives us time to see where we can go from
here, said Ramir Morales.
The usual hours of 6 a.m. to 3 p.m. will remain, and the tradi-
tional breakfast and Filipino menu will be 99 percent the same.
Otherwise the customers would say, what happened to my
food? said Ramir Morales.
As she set up the front counter of the restaurant, Rhonda
Reyes, Ramir Morales sister, said working together in a new
building will take some getting used to.
Weve been doing this for 20 years [at the old place], she
said. We have to gure out our new dance routine.
Melba Morales, who is famous for joking with customers,
scanned the room and pointed to the entryway. She suspects this
is where her new perch will be, so she can watch people come in
and out. The family has some nishing touches left to do, but
they have begun to make the place their own. They already set up
their large collection of elephant gurines given to them by cus-
tomers over the years.
The family wanted to bring their old restaurant sign to the new
place, but they decided against it. They did not want to uproot the
owl family that has been living in the sign.
Melba Morales chatted with a customer who had been coming
to the old restaurant for 10 years, as Rudy Morales hustled
around the entryway with various tools, making phone calls.
Rudy Morales said, despite the showing of excited customers, he
is still nervous about the opening.
I dont know what to expect, he said.
Ramir Morales is happy that the new place is double in capac-
ity and has more parking, allowing for more people to get in and
eat on the busy weekends. Now, when families come in and see
each other, they can push tables together, he said.
Despite the larger space, the family is not hiring on anyone
new just yet.
Weve got the whole crew back, said Ramir Morales.
As the family worked, more customers came by, hoping for a
bite. Gary Graziani stopped by and chatted with Ramir and
Rhonda. We cant wait till its open, he said. Mamas been
real good to my son, she brings things over to his parties.
Teresa Patel from Belmont was driving around looking for a
place to eat breakfast and decided to stop by.
We were so sad when they left, said Patel, who loves The
Pantrys rolls. Wed rather give our money to them than Stacks
or anywhere else.
One customer told Rudy Morales that he owes him money, for
making him buy breakfast at another place, said Rhonda Reyes.
She is looking forward to French toast and hash browns, and
just hanging with my friends.
The Pantry reopens Monday at 1855 S. Delaware St., San
Mateo. Hours are 6 a.m. to 3 p.m., every day.
[Would you like your] kid on a sofa in
front of a TV or outdoors running
around? The natural inclination will be
[to have the] kid running around, said
Hagler, who added unfortunately the
opportunities are not always available
for kids to be safely outdoors in their
neighborhood.
FYI supports organizations and infra-
structure projects that will give children
those opportunities.
For example, Pie Ranch was given a
catalyst grant to support the outreach
effort into schools. As a result, Pie
Ranch has started building relationships
with schools and long-term curriculum
that can be taught on campus after the
farm visit ends, said Lawson.
Its those kind of opportunities that
Hagler loves. He was a high school
teacher of outdoor experiential educa-
tion before joining FYI. Hagler speci-
cally worked with students who were
close to dropping out of school. The cre-
ation of the organization gave Hagler an
opportunity to be a bigger part of the
outdoor experiential education about
which he was already passionate. While
FYI doesnt offer specific programs
itself, it works to fund and support those
which are available.
It all started when Pacic Gas and
Electric went into bankruptcy, which
created questions about the watershed
lands that generate energy. Instead of
selling it, it was decided through an
agreement with the California Public
Utilities Commission that the land
would be overseen by the Stewardship
Council. The councils job was expand-
ed at some point to include the Youth
Investment Program. FYI was created to
build on the Stewardship Council
efforts. Millions are earmarked for the
efforts over 10 years.
Since its start, FYI has been focused
on spreading information and supporting
organizations. Now, it is starting to work
on nding new revenue streams to sup-
port outdoor efforts in the years after the
settlement dollars are gone. In addition,
the nonprot is hoping to nd people
who will help with that work. FYI can
also help donors leverage their dona-
tions.
Were here to help people ... learn
about other organizations. Its really
about getting kids into nature spaces,
Hagler said.

Foundation for Youth Investment visit

Students who took the writing test in
2011 had an advantage that previous
test takers did not: computers with
spell-check and thesaurus. Previously,
young people taking the National
Assessment of Educational Progress
writing test had to use pencil and paper;
the switch was made in line with
changes in technology and a need for
todays students to write across elec-
tronic formats.
Because this was the first version of
the computerized test, the board cau-
tioned against comparing the results to
previous exams. In 2007, some 33 per-
cent of eighth-grade students scored at
the proficient level, which represents
solid writing skills, as did 24 percent at
grade 12.
Crovo said most students already use
such technology as spell-check on a
daily basis. Without those tools, she
said, Its as if years ago we had given
them a pencil to write the essay and
took away the eraser.
She said word processing tools alone
wouldnt result in significantly better
writing scores if students didnt have
the core skills of being able to organize
ideas and present them in a clear and
grammatical fashion.
Still, students in both grades who
used the thesaurus and the backspace
key more frequently had higher scores
than those who used them less often.
Students who scored below the 25th
percentile were less likely to have com-
puters at home: 87 percent said they
did, compared to 99 percent were in the
top quarter.
The technology gap was hinted at in
other statistics as well: The lowest scor-
ers reported less daily computer use for
school assignments, and 44 percent
fewer said they always used a computer
to make changes to papers or reports.
Mark Warschauer, an education pro-
fessor at the University of California,
Irvine, said research consistently shows
the use of computers in the classroom
improves writing performance. He said
students end up writing more, getting
more feedback from peers and teachers
and publishing more, all of which keeps
them motivated.
It just improves every aspect of the
writing process, he said.
The latest test results make a strong
argument for more use of technology in
English language programs at school,
Warschauer said, as home access is
more uneven.
The results at both grade levels
showed a continuing achievement gap
between white, black, Hispanic and
Asian students. At the eighth grade,
Asian students had the highest average
score, which was 33 points higher than
black students on a 300-point scale. At
the 12th grade, white students scored
27 points above black students.
There was also a gender gap, with
girls scoring 20 points higher on aver-
age than boys in the eighth grade and
14 points higher in 12th grade. Those
who qualified for free and reduced
price lunch, a key indicator of poverty,
had lower scores than those who did
not; there was a 27 point difference
between the two at the eighth grade.
For the 2011 exam, laptops were
brought into public and private schools
across the country and more than
50,000 students were tested to get a
nationally representative sample.
Students were required to write essays
that explained, persuaded or conveyed
an experience.
Kathleen Blake Yancey, a professor at
Florida State University who served on
the advisory panel for the test, said one
factor to keep in mind is that research
shows most students in the United
States dont compose at the keyboard.
What they do is sort of type already
written documents into the machine,
much as we used to do with typewriters
four decades ago, she said.
Yancey said for this reason there was
some concern about having students
write on computers as opposed to by
hand. Likewise, having the advantage
of spell-check assumes students know
how to use it. And in some schools and
neighborhoods, computers are still not
easily accessible.
There are not so many students that
actually learn to write composing at the
keyboard, she said.
Yancey added that many kids who do
have access to computers are not neces-
sarily using them to write at school, but
to take standardized tests and fill in
bubbles.
Digital technology is a technology,
she said. Paper and pencil is a technol-
ogy. If technology were the answer, that
would be pretty simple.

to power in the Arab Spring.
Security forces worked to rein in the anti-
American crowds but appeared to struggle in
doing so. Police in Cairo prevented stone-
throwing protesters from getting near the U.S.
Embassy, firing tear gas and deploying
armored vehicles in a fourth day of clashes in
the Egyptian capital. One person died there
after being shot by rubber bullets.
The State Department said U.S. Embassy
personnel were reported to be safe in Tunisia,
Sudan and Yemen sites of Fridays violent
demonstrations.
President Barack Obama said Washington
would stand fast against attacks on U.S.
embassies around the world. He spoke at a
somber ceremony paying tribute to four
Americans including U.S. Ambassador
Chris Stevens killed earlier this week when
the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, was
stormed by militants who may have used
protests of the anti-Muslim lm to stage an
assault on the 11th anniversary of the Sept. 11
terrorist attacks.
An elite Marine rapid response team arrived
in Yemens capital of Saana, where local secu-
rity forces shot live rounds in the air and red
tear gas at a crowd of an estimated 2,000 pro-
testers who were kept about a block away
from the U.S. Embassy, which protesters
broke into the day before.
In east Jerusalem, Israeli police stopped a
crowd of about 400 Palestinians from march-
ing on the U.S. Consulate to protest the lm.
Demonstrators threw bottles and stones at
police, who responded by ring stun grenades.
Four protesters were arrested.
Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton
had tried to pre-empt the violence a day earli-
er by saying the rage and violence aimed at
American diplomatic missions was prompted
by an awful Internet video that we had noth-
ing to do with.
Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi went
on national TV and appealed to Muslims not
to attack embassies. It was his rst public
move to restrain protesters after days of near
silence and appeared aimed at easing tensions
with the United States.
The United Nations Security Council
released a press statement late Friday con-
demning in the strongest terms the violence,
saying the very nature of diplomatic premis-
es is peaceful and ... diplomats have among
their core functions the promotion of better
understanding across countries and cultures.
But the demonstrators came out after week-
ly Friday prayers. Many clerics in their
mosque sermons urged congregations to
defend their faith, denouncing the obscure
movie Innocence of Muslims that was pro-
duced in the United States that denigrated the
Prophet Muhammad.
In addition to countries where protests have
occurred, U.S. embassies around the world,
including in France and Austria, issued alerts
Friday advising Americans to review their per-
sonal security measures and warning them
that demonstrations may occur and may turn
violent. Other embassies issuing alerts includ-
ed Mauritania and India. More than 50 U.S.
embassies and consulates had released similar
alerts Thursday.
Several thousand people battled with
Tunisian security forces outside the U.S.
Embassy in Tunis. Protesters rained stones on
police ring tear gas and shooting into the air.
Some protesters scaled the embassy wall and
stood on top of it, planting the Islamist ag
that has become a symbol of the wave of
protests: A black banner with the Islamic pro-
fession of faith, There is no god but Allah and
Muhammad is his prophet.
Police chased them off the wall and took the
ag down. Two protesters were killed and 29
people were wounded, including police.
Protesters also set re to the American
School adjacent to the embassy compound
and prevented reghters from approaching it.
State Department spokeswoman Victoria
Nuland said the school in Tunis was badly
damaged and is now unusable.
The heaviest violence came in Khartoum,
Sudan, where a prominent sheik on state radio
urged protesters to march on the German
Embassy to protest alleged anti-Muslim graf-
ti on mosques in Berlin and then to the U.S.
Embassy to protest the lm.
America has long been an enemy to Islam
and to Sudan, Sheik Mohammed Jizouly
said.
On Friday night, a U.S. ofcial said an elite
Marine rapid response team was headed to
Sudan. The ofcial spoke on condition of
anonymity because the deployment was not
made public.
Soon after, several hundred Sudanese
stormed into the German Embassy, setting
part of a building aame along with trash bins
and a car. Protesters celebrated around the
burning barrels as black smoke billowed into
the sky until police ring tear gas drove them
out of the compound. Some then began to
demonstrate outside the neighboring British
Embassy.
Several thousand then moved via a convoy
of buses to the U.S. Embassy on Khartoums
outskirts. They clashed with Sudanese police,
who red on some who tried to scale the com-
pounds wall.
The police then dispersed the crowd with
tear gas, starting a stampede. Witnesses
reported seeing three protesters motionless on
the ground, although there was no immediate
word whether they were dead or alive.
Islamic militants waving black banners and
shouting God is great! stormed an interna-
tional peacekeepers base in Egypts Sinai and
battled troops, wounding four Colombians,
said a senior ofcial with the multinational
force. The base near the border with Gaza and
Israel houses some 1,500 members of the
force, including U.S. troops.
The official, speaking on condition of
anonymity because he was not authorized to
talk to the press, said it appeared the attack
was connected to the wider protests in the
region.
One protester was killed in the northern
Lebanese city of Tripoli in clashes with secu-
rity forces after a crowd set re to a KFC and
a Hardees restaurant. Protesters hurled stones
and glass at police in a furious melee that left
25 people injured, 18 of them police.
