San Mateo County is supervising
15 percent more former state
parolees than anticipated and many
of those at risk of re-offending
refuse the local treatment programs
and services offered to help them
assimilate back into the community
and reduce the chance of recidi-
vism.
According to a county managers
quarterly report on public safety
realignment, 87 percent of the
supervisees prison inmates
released to the supervision of their
home county rather than state parole
are at high or moderate risk of
re-offending, 64 percent need sub-
stance abuse treatment and 26 per-
cent need mental health treatment.
But the majority will not take them
or other services, according to the
report which looked at the demo-
graphics between April and June.
Realignment is the shifting of state
prisoners to counties in a cost-cut-
ting move by the state.
Since the Oct. 1 start of realign-
ment, the Probation Department has
overseen 260 supervisees total and
45 have been released since January
of this year. The state had projected
San Mateo County would get an
average of 25 per month but the
local numbers the rst nine months
of the shift have running about 15
percent higher and 351 supervisees
should be in county care by
September 2013 when realignment
is fully implemented.
The higher trend is not a big sur-
prise and the Probation Department
received enough funding from the
state to cover the extra people, said
Legislative Coordinator Connie
Juarez-Diroll who will deliver the
Parolee numbers run high
County received more state inmates, supervisees than expected with realignment

With low ridership and high cost,
the San Carlos Elementary School
District decided not to continue a
bus serving Tierra Linda Middle
School and San Carlos Charter
Learning Center.
Earlier this year, the district
received a Safe Routes to School
grant from the San Mateo County
Ofce of Education for a bus service
test. Trafc often backs up on San
Carlos Avenue before and after
school. A bus, the district thought,
might offer a solution to that prob-
lem. While 98 students were signed
up for the bus by the end of the pilot,
daily ridership never reached over
38 making the cost too high.
The pilot project demonstrated
that although interest in this project
was high, it did not translate into
actual usage of the bus by the fami-
lies who signed up, according to a
release posted on the district web-
site Thursday. Between the low
participation rate and the high cost
of running the bus, the board deter-
mined that a transportation project
of this nature is not nancially feasi-

It was a keyboard in the activity
room of the Palo Alto-based Ronald
McDonald House that caught the
eye of many of the children while
Michelle Marsiske volunteered last
year.
She received requests from the
kids to play songs. But Marsiske,
who will soon start her senior year
at Carlmont High School, plays the
alto saxophone. So she didnt know
many songs to play on a keyboard. It
got her thinking because the chil-
dren were so intrigued by music.
When asked, however, many would
not have access to music in schools.
Marsiske was saddened by this.
She recalled being introduced to
music as a child. While in elemen-
tary school, Marsiske was a student
who benefited from the Music
Mentors at Carlmont. Now in its
ninth year, the volunteer group con-
nects instrumental music teens at
Carlmont with students in the
Belmont-Redwood Shores
Elementary School District once a
week. They offer small lessons to

Making appointments is often
made easier by simply going online.
Brad Simmons, 31, noticed a gap
in that offering when it came to
automotive repair shops. Many still
work by taking telephone calls.
Possible customers work directly
with the mechanics. A generation of
people under 35, however, are more
comfortable with tech-savvy
options like making appointments
online after regular business hours.
Thats what Simmons was trying
to address with ClearMechanic,
which launched in the Bay Area last
month. The website allows people
to go online, put in information
about their car and the problem and
look for appointments nearby. At the
moment, the service is only serving
people in San Francisco to San Jose.
Among those giving the service a
go is Mark Schwartz, owner of
Holland Car Care in San Mateo and
San Carlos.
Were always looking for new
customers, said Schwartz. They
do it with restaurants.
Schwartz, who was approached
by ClearMechanic, decided to give
it a try. It might be a way to reach
younger people. But in terms of the
impact ClearMechanic will have on
his business, Schwartz said the jury
is still out.
Taking auto services online start-
ed with the company in mind rather
than the customer. After nishing at
Harvard Business School, Simmons
saw an opportunity to take the busi-
ness virtual. It started with offering
mechanics the opportunity to send
their clients real-time photos and

Military sexual assault is
focus of YouTube series
SAN DIEGO The enormous obsta-
cles and emotional torment that a female
solider confronts in reporting a sexual
assault in the military are the focus of the
three-part Web series Lauren debuting
Monday on YouTubes new channel
WIGS, which focuses on drama for
women.
Featuring Flashdance star Jennifer
Beals and Troian Bellisario, Lauren
gives a close-up look at the challenges
women service members face in trying to
nd justice after being raped. Its a prob-
lem that military leaders have given
unprecedented attention to this year.
The Defense Department has esti-
mated that 86 percent of sexual
assaults go unreported, an
indication that some women
are worried about the effect
r e por t -
ing an
assault may have on their career and that
they mistrust the military prosecution
system. Nearly 3,200 sexual assaults
were reported in the military last year.
Military leaders say sexual assault is
not only dehumanizing to the victims but
threatens operational readiness. The
Pentagon has set up hotlines and has
been trying to encourage service mem-
bers to help victims. High-ranking Navy
leaders have likened their campaign to
the crusade years ago to stop rampant
drug abuse, although activists say sweep-
ing institutional changes are needed for
victims to nd justice.
Directed by Lesli Linka Glatter,
Lauren sets out to show viewers how
unfair and unsympathetic the military
can be toward the abuse of female serv-
ice members. At the same time, it
depicts the turmoil of many of the vic-
tims who have a deep love and respect
for the military but often feel betrayed
after coming forward.
The series opens with an Army com-
manding ofcer Maj. Jo Stone, played
by Beals scrutinizing a report made
by a sergeant named Lauren about being
raped by three fellow soldiers. Stone asks
the young soldier if she ever considered
a career as a ction writer and then asks
how many drinks she had the night of the
incident. She provides an ominous
warning if she pursues her accusations.
Even if the men are deemed guilty,
theyre likely to suffer a reprimand or a
slight pay cut, nothing more, Stone tells
the soldier. But WHAT will happen to
you may expose you to repercussions for
your entire career.
After Mondays debut, the second and
third episodes in the series will be avail-
able Wednesday and Friday.
Beals told The Associated Press her
characters words may at rst seem hurt-
ful and harsh but later viewers realize its
more complex for the commanding of-
cer, who herself has had to ght her way
up through the ranks.
Even though she seems so hard, there
is one little icker of humanity, Beals
said, adding later: You have to get to the
end (of the series) before you realize
what the real story is.
Bellisario said in an interview that she
was drawn to the script because even
though her father, NCIS and JAG
producer Donald P. Bellisario, served in
the Marine Corps, she was not aware of
the institutional barriers in todays mili-
tary that deter many female service
members from reporting sexual assaults.
The biggest problem when youre
overseas and youre serving, is all you
have is the guy or girl next to you and
your commanding officer, Bellisario
said. If your commanding ofcer does
not want to do it (report the rape), then
you have nowhere else to go.
More than a dozen U.S. veterans who say
they were raped or assaulted by comrades
led a class-action suit in federal court last
year attempting to force the Pentagon to
change how it handles such cases.

T
he 1940s after World War II was the
beginning of the largest housing
boom South San Francisco was to
experience. During the war, everyone who
wanted a job could have one but there wasnt
a great deal of things one could buy. Money
was invested in war and savings bonds that
helped fund the war effort. After 1945, almost
everyone was ready to spend their hard-
earned salaries on comfort that had been
denied during the frugal war times.
Food and clothing stamps were no longer
needed to purchase staples. During the war,
many families had to live in substandard con-
ditions while producing ships, food, tanks and
clothing for the war effort. Lumber now
became available for houses and thats what
was demanded. The following is a sample of
some of the beginning projects that catapulted
South San Francisco into a population of
54,312 and 10 square miles of incorporated
land by 1990.
Annexed in 1945, the section of South San
Francisco that had belonged to rancher
Custodio Silva who lived across from the
Tanforan race track was acquired, named
Brentwood and the land was prepared for
housing. A creek ran down the center of the
132 acres but this was a minor engineering
feat to cover it and proceed to mass produce
houses for the returning servicemen and
immigrants to the war industry on the
Peninsula.
The next onslaught of mass-produced hous-
ing was begun on the Buri Buri section just
north of the California Country Club. This
piece of land was separated from the country
club by a creek that flowed east from
Westborough and later the creek was umed
and Westborough Boulevard was built over
the ume. The rst 100 acres of Buri Buri was
annexed in 1946 with #2 and #3 sections
annexed by 1954. Three-hundred acres of
land between Junipero Serra to the west and
El Camino Real to the east had 1,200 homes
built on them. Lloyd Simpson, J. Frank
Barrett and two others constructed homes that
cost between $7,000 and $12,500.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
RENO, Nev. Two San Francisco artists
plan to appeal a jury verdict that found a
Nevada farmer wasnt liable for torching a
replica of a Spanish galleon that was aban-
doned for years after a Burning Man Festival.
Artist Simon Chefns and mechanical engi-
neer Gregory Jones are unhappy with the
jurys decision in federal court in Reno last
week. They plan to take the case to the Ninth
U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, their attorney
told the Reno Gazette-Journal.
The pair sought damages from a 57-year-
old Reno rancher, Michael Stewart, whose
lawyers say he was simply clearing land he
acquired when he burned the ship in 2006
after its display in several Burning Man festi-
vals.
The artwork was built around a school bus
with what the rancher says was a broken
axle. The artists insist they never meant to
abandon it.
The jury decided the artists had abandoned
their work, but their lawyer insisted the repli-
ca galleon was a type of art protected by the
U.S. Visual Artists Rights Act of 1990,
regardless of its location on private land.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Robert McQuaid Jr.
ruled Thursday that the ship was little more
than a mode of transportation and not a piece
of ne art.
No criminal charges were led over the
ships destruction.
After sitting abandoned for two years in the
harsh Nevada desert, the once iconic ship was
more a rusty eyesore than a crowned jewel,
Stewarts lawyer Keegan Low said.
Stewart considered the ship junk and
torched it when he acquired the private prop-
erty where it was stored, court documents
show.
The suit alleges Stewart made no attempt to
contact the San Francisco artists before taking
action.
Its not everyones cup of tea. We acknowl-
edge that, said Paul Quade, the artists Reno
attorney. But for someone to be so callous to
call it a piece of junk ... He said the ship was
most recently retrieved for a showing at
Burning Man in 2005.
The artists checked on the ship every few
months until it was torched in December
2006, he said.
The ship was regarded as an artcar for the
annual counterculture gathering, but it was
eventually banned from the festival because
of safety concerns. The driver of the bus, with
limited visibility, had to maneuver the mas-
sive vessel by radio directions from a pilot on
deck.
The artists parked the ship on a ranch with
permission from owner Joan Grant.
Stewart, a critic of Burning Man, bought the
property from Grant in 2004 but allowed her
to live there until she died or decided to move.
Grant moved in 2005 after her mobile home
burned down in a grease re, court records
say.

SAN FRANCISCO California health
ofcials are warning people not to eat oysters
from a Northern California company because
they may be contaminated with bacteria that
can make people sick.
In announcing the recall of shucked and in-
shell raw oysters from Drakes Bay Oyster
Co., the California Department of Public
Health said the oysters may be contaminated
with Vibrio parahaemolyticus, a bacteria that
can cause vomiting, abdominal cramps, diar-
rhea, headache, fever and chills.
Health ofcials said most people who get
sick from the bacteria recover without treat-
ment in a few days, but severe illness can
occur in people suffering from chronic liver
disease, cancer, or other conditions that weak-
en the immune system.
A statement from the Inverness-based com-
pany said it initiated a voluntary recall after
being notied by state health ofcials that
three illnesses had been linked to its oysters.
The shucked oysters are packaged under the
Drakes Bay Oyster Farm label and sold in 9
ounce, 1-pint, 1-quart and half-gallon jars or tubs.

LITTLE HOUSE
By Don Thompson
SACRAMENTO More than
800,000 Californians who own prop-
erty in wildre country will begin
receiving bills this week for a new
annual re-protection fee, rekindling
outrage among
rural residents
and leading to a
likely lawsuit
seeking to over-
turn the sur-
charge.
The fee,
passed by
Democrats in
the Legislature
and signed by
Gov. Jerry Brown last year, is
intended to raise an estimated $84
million in its rst year for re-pre-
vention efforts. The annual charge
can run as high as $150 for property
owners with a single occupied
dwelling, although there is a $35
discount for those who already pay
a local tax for re protection.
The discount will apply to about
95 percent of rural property owners,
but its not enough to quell the anger
in the parts of California where the
fee will apply.
Everybody that knows about it is
upset, but I think 90 percent of the
public has no idea its coming. Its
going to be quite a shock, said John
Little of Laytonville, chief of the
Long Valley Fire Protection District
in rural Mendocino County.
He said the $115 annual bill will
hurt residents in his 250-square-
mile district. The region, between
the Mendocino National Forest and
the Pacic Ocean, has a jobless rate
of 18 percent and many seniors liv-
ing on xed incomes.
The bills start going out Monday
and will have been issued to more
than 825,000 property owners by
years end. They are being sent to
counties in alphabetical order, so
residents of Alameda, Alpine and
Amador counties will be rst in line.
The fee was imposed on those who
own property within the 31 million
rural acres covered by the California
Department of Forestry and Fire
Protection, a responsibility area that
includes about one-third of the state.
Fire danger there is growing more
extreme, according to a recent
University of California, Merced
study prepared for the California
Energy Commission. Climate
change, development and changes
to the landscape may double the re
risk to rural homes over the next 40
years, researchers found.
Brown sought the fee mostly to help
close the states budget decit, calling
it a fee consistent with the beneci-
ary pays principle, in his signing
message. If additional money can be
raised and dedicated to CalFire, he
reasoned, a similar amount could go to
other state services that have experi-
enced deep budget cuts.
The fee will help prevent more
spending cuts for state reghters.
Over the last 18 months, the
department has dealt with an $80
million budget cut by hiring 700
fewer seasonal reghters, closing
an air base in Fresno and moth-
balling ve bulldozers and both of
its re engines serving the Lake
Tahoe area because it lacked enough
reghters to operate them. Fire
protection around Lake Tahoe is
now provided by local re districts
and the U.S. Forest Service.
Fire fee ignites anger
Jerry Brown
SAN FRANCISCO The resi-
dents of 40 homes in a rural area
northeast of Fresno remained out of
their homes Sunday as re crews
battled a brushre sparked by a dis-
carded cigarette, while far to the
north more reghters arrived to
help make a stand against a massive
blaze in the Plumas National Forest.
The re burning in an area of
foothills near the community of
Tollhouse, about 40 miles northeast
of Fresno, was 30 percent contained
after scorching 138 acres since it
was reported a little after noon
Saturday, said California
Department of Forestry and Fire
Protection spokesman John
Dominguez.
The spread of the re had been
stopped Sunday, but evacuations
remained in place over concerns
blowing embers could spark new
ames, Dominguez said.
We anticipate only improving
the line today, he said. We dont
anticipate the fire spreading, but
theres always that chance.
The more than 500 reghters
that rushed to the scene were work-
ing in rocky terrain and in sizzling
heat, with temperatures that were
expected to break 100 degrees
Sunday.
Mountain Lion spotted in
San Mateo Highlands
A mountain lion was spotted
Friday morning in the San Mateo
Highlands, San Mateo County
emergency ofcials said.
The big cat was seen near the
1700 block of Lexington Avenue in
unincorporated San Mateo.
The animal was walking through
San Francisco Watershed property,
ofcials said.
Ofcials warn if residents see a
mountain lion to not approach it and
avoid confrontation.

HIGH POINT, N.C. In Paul Ryans high-
energy debut as Republican vice presidential
candidate, Mitt Romney made one thing clear:
His ideas rule, not his running mates. I have
my budget plan, he said, And thats the
budget plan were going to run on.
Romney put gentle but unmistakable dis-
tance between his agenda and Ryans hot-
potato budget proposals on Sunday as the new
team soaked up excitement from partisans in
North Carolina and Ryans home state of
Wisconsin.
He walked a careful line as he campaigned
with Ryan by his side in North Carolina, sin-
gling out his running mates work to make sure
we can save Medicare. But the presidential
candidate never said whether he embraced
Ryans austere plan himself, and he addressed
the matter more directly in a 60 Minutes inter-
view, with Ryan still with him, Sunday night.
Democrats werent about to let them off that
hook.
President Barack Obama, attending cam-
paign fundraisers Sunday in Chicago, tagged
Ryan as the ideological leader of the
Republican Party.
He is a decent man, he
is a family man, he is an
articulate spokesman for
Gov. Romneys vision but
it is a vision that I funda-
mentally disagree with,
Obama said in his first
public comments about
Ryans selection.
Senior Obama adviser
David Axelrod and other
aides spent Sunday trying to brand Ryans
budget the Ryan-Romney plan.
During the Republican primary, Romney
had called Ryans budget a bold and exciting
effort that was very much needed.
Ryan proposed to reshape the long-standing
entitlement by setting up a voucher-like system
to let future retirees shop for private health
coverage or choose the traditional program
a plan that independent budget analysts say
would probably mean smaller increases in ben-
ets than current law would provide.
Romney and Ryan, in their rst joint televi-
sion interview Sunday, were clearly mindful
that some of Ryans proposals dont sit well
with key constituencies, among them seniors
in critical states like Florida and Ohio.

Tea party evolves, achieves
state policy victories
ATLANTA Tea party activists in Georgia
helped kill a proposed sales tax increase that
would have raised billions of dollars for trans-
portation projects.
In Pennsylvania, tea partyers pushed to have
taxpayers send public school children to private
schools. In Ohio, they drove a statewide referen-
dum to block state health insurance mandates.
These and other battles are evidence of the
latest phase of the conservative movement,
inuencing state and local policy, perhaps
more effectively than on a national level. Tea
party organizers are refocusing, sometimes
without the party label, to build broader sup-
port for their initiatives.
Storied 101st Airborne
marks 70th anniversary
NASHVILLE, Tenn. After months of
grueling road marches through the north
Georgia mountains, a group of elite paratroop-
ers had to put their training to the test in a trial
by re. They leapt from an airplane, bullets
whizzing past parachutes and shrapnel pelting
the planes side panels.
Ed Shames was among them. Now 90,
Shames was 19 when he signed up for new para-
chute units created military leaders who wanted
a quicker, more aggressive unit that could sneak
behind enemy lines in Europe. This week, thou-
sands of active-duty soldiers and veterans are
gathering at Fort Campbell, Ky., to honor the
101st Airborne Division that was created by the
military 70 years ago, even as its current soldiers
prepare to leave for Afghanistan.
Military ofcials at rst werent so sure the
101st Screaming Eagles would nd success.
And the day Shames rst saw combat turned
out to be one of the most crucial in U.S. histo-
ry the D-Day invasion of France.

By Bassem Mroue
BEIRUT The head of Syrias
main opposition group in exile
called Sunday for international
powers to impose a no-y zone in
border areas to protect civilians who
are coming under increasingly
intense attacks by regime warplanes
and helicopters.
The president of the Syrian
National Council, Abdelbaset
Sieda, told the Associated Press that
such a move by
the international
c o m m u n i t y
would show
P r e s i d e n t
Bashar Assads
regime that his
o p p o n e n t s
around the
world are seri-
ous.
The Syrian opposition has been
calling for a no-y zone over Syria
for months. But Sieda renewed the
plea a day after U.S. Secretary of
State Hillary Rodham Clinton said
Washington and Turkey were dis-
cussing a range of steps including a
no-y zone over some parts of Syria
as the regime increasingly uses its
air force to attack rebels.
There must be special protec-
tion, Sieda said by telephone. The
numbers of martyrs are increasing
and destruction too. If the country
keeps going this way, then we are
heading to a catastrophe.
Asked who will impose the no-y
zone, Sieda said: We leave it to the
international community.
Russia and China have vetoed
attempts to pass tough U.N.
Security Council resolutions aimed
at Assads regime. Last week, the
U.N. and Arab League envoy to
Syria, Ko Annan, announced his
resignation, following a frustrating
six-month effort that failed to
achieve even a temporary cease-re.
Sieda said the no-y zone should
be along borders with Jordan and
Turkey, adding that the opposition
had called for such a move during
last months Friends of Syria meet-
ing in Paris attended by world pow-
ers.
Now that Syrias air force is tak-
ing part in bombing cities and
towns, there must be protection for
the Syrian people. There must be a
no-y zone so that there will be safe
havens to refugees, he said.
Syrias civil war has spread to
almost every province in the coun-
try and the death toll has increased
over the past weeks.
Syrian opposition leader calls for no-y zone
Bashar Assad
TEHRAN, Iran Residents of the zone in
northwestern Iran hit by powerful twin earth-
quakes described moments of terror and panic
with birds crowing loudly in warning seconds
before the ground shook. As the death toll rose
Sunday to more than 250 with entire villages
leveled, rescuers called off searches for sur-
vivors and turned their attention to caring for
the 16,000 people left homeless.
At least 20 villages were totally destroyed
in the quakes on Saturday that were followed
by some 36 aftershocks, state television
reported. Ahmad Reza Shajiei, a senior gov-
ernment ofcial in charge of rescue opera-
tions, said more than 5,000 tents have been set
up to shelter the thousands of displaced who
spent the night outdoors.
The moment the earthquake hit, it was like
a snake biting from underground. It was the
worst experience of my life, said resident
Morteza Javid, 47, from Ahar.
The walls were shaking and moving from
side to side. It took about a minute before I
could run out of the house, he said. Seconds
before the earthquake, crows were making a
lot of noise, but I didnt understand why. It
was only after the quake that I learned the
crows were warning us. Javid said he drove
more than a dozen injured people to hospitals
during the night.
State television said at least 250 died. The
semiofcial Mehr news agency quoted a local
ofcial who put the toll at 277. State TV said
44,000 food packages and thousands of blan-
kets have been distributed in the stricken area.
In Washington, the White House press secre-
tary sent a message of sympathy for the victims.
Our thoughts are with the families of those
who were lost, and we wish the wounded a
speedy recovery, it said.

Egypts president seizes
powers back from military
CAIRO Egypts Islamist president
ordered the retirement of the defense minister
and chief of staff on Sunday and made the
boldest move so far to seize back powers that
the military stripped from his ofce right
before he took over. Mohammed Morsi has
been locked in a power struggle with the mil-
itary since he took ofce on June 30. But after
militants killed 16 Egyptian soldiers a week
ago at a border post with Israel in Sinai, he
has sought more aggressively to assert his
authority over the top generals.

OPINION 9
Respect The Dog and
those who use it
Editor,
This is an open letter to all Waterdog
Lake (or any other) trail users. The
main point is to respect the trail and
those who use it.
All downhill trail users (bikes, walk-
ers, runners) should be in enough con-
trol of their activity to always yield the
right of way to any uphill trail users.
Uphill trail users always have the right
of way.
Dog walkers, please be responsible
pet owners and always clean up after
your dog. Use the bags provided on the
trail or bring your own, but take it with
you. Even if you plan on picking the
bag up on the way back, it is just as
annoying and disrespectful to the trail
and all who have to go by your bag and
see it on the side of the trail (please
take it with you). If you do not abide
by the leash law, that is ne, but please
dont be so naive as to think that, if you
dont see your dog leave a gift, they
didnt leave one. You know they did
somewhere, so pick up any pile or
piles. Who knows, they may be yours
anyway.
Thank you for respecting the trail(s)
and the people who use them.

Response to
Responsible Republicans
Editor,
This letter is in response to Jerry
Emanuels letter published in the Aug.
9 edition of the Daily Journal suggest-
ing that Arnold Schwarzenegger is
responsible for the high-speed rail
debacle. Sufce to say that this clearly
is not the only mistake Schwarzenegger
made, at least two of which have had
massive consequences. Fortunately, the
high-speed rail project will bleed to
death. Unfortunately, we the innocent
taxpayers are going to be saddled with
a few billion dollars of additional debt.
I am looking to Jerry starting to buy the
high-speed rail bonds that Gov. Jerry
Brown is busy printing now. He might
be the only one.

Guest perspective
By Debra Marks, Ph.D.
W
hen you are surrounded by
fragility, you do not charge
in. You step cautiously,
move slowly, tread gently, so as not to
further wound or crack or break that
which is already compromised.
Sept. 9 will mark the two-year
anniversary of the Pacic Gas and
Electric pipeline explosion in San
Bruno, a moment in time when the land-
scape of our neighborhood and the inner
lives of our neighbors were forever
changed. Recently, this same neighbor-
hood was impacted once again, this time
when a pipe, located in the exact same
location as the 2010 tragedy, was rup-
tured by a contractors backhoe. The
contractor was hired by the city of San
Bruno to repair the infrastructure dam-
aged in the blast two years ago. The
contractor made a mistake.
As a result of this mistake, gas spewed
into our neighborhood once again. An
evacuation and a shelter-in-place were
announced. Sirens echoed once again.
Fire trucks rushed to the scene.
Helicopters circled above. Reporters and
cameramen invaded our streets and rang
our doorbells. And once again, our
hearts stopped and panic set in, as the
terror we felt two years ago pushed its
way back through the gates of any
progress we had made. For many, this
mistake opened wounds that had bare-
ly begun to heal and, in a split second,
we returned to Sept. 9, 2010 and stared
into the eyes of our terried, shaken and
wounded selves.
When you are surrounded by fragility,
you do not charge in. You stand patient-
ly, work quietly,
watch knowingly, so
as not to further strip
or bleed or crush that
which is already rav-
aged.
The contractor
promptly issued a
formal apology, and
it was most likely a
sincere one. For us,
however, apologies have ceased to mean
much. We have heard too many apolo-
gies from too many people, especially
from those who are responsible for caus-
ing the devastation two years ago. We
see their apology on television now,
veiled in a $10 million ad campaign
designed to make us feel better about
what they are doing to change the way
they have failed us.
Apologies dont mean much to this
community anymore.
I was home at the time of this latest
rupture, just as I had been two years ago,
and in an instant, I felt its impact. The
rst thought I had was, Its happening
again. The second thought I had was,
Do they use a backhoe in cemeteries?
Perhaps that seems morbid, but that is
the way I feel about these streets. They
are parcels of land where lives were lost,
and while some might see a dirty, torn-
up neighborhood under construction,
with beautiful new homes rising inside
chain-link fences, I see a graveyard for
my neighbors who are now deceased. I
see heavy machinery digging and
trenching on sacred ground.
I see it and so do many of my neigh-
bors.
Others do not.
Maybe that is what happens with any
tragedy. In the beginning, the eyes of
strangers surround you. They see every-
thing. They watch from behind their
one-way mirrors, hover with cameras
and microphones, linger and observe
your excruciating vulnerability. Then the
rush of attention gradually shifts and the
once attentive, somewhat voyeuristic
eyes begin to exit, moving along to the
next compelling human story.
A strange feeling emerges for those of
us left behind. Perhaps it emerges for all
who have experienced a trauma. It is a
confusing mixture, a mixture of wanting
others to see that you are still in pain
and resenting them for looking.
I have lived in San Bruno for just over
two years now, and I can see that this is
a resilient and unsinkable community.
We are building. We are moving through
and moving on as best we can, but it
takes nothing to bring us back to that
early evening on Sept. 9, 2010. It takes
nothing to cause us to struggle for air. It
takes nothing to cause our minds to go
blank. It takes nothing to feel our bodies
go numb. It takes nothing to open our
wounds.
So to our neighboring communities, to
our contractors and to those of you read-
ing this now, please do not forget.
You are surrounded by fragility.
Please do not charge in.

psychologist with a psychotherapy prac-
tice in San Francisco. She works regularly

Tom Huening
walks away
I
ts not every elected ofcial who voluntarily leaves
ofce mid-term when the issue is not health, family
problems or bad publicity. Huening gave up his secure
position as county controller because he wanted to concen-
trate on writing. He had an assistant waiting in the wings
(Bob Adler, the newly appointed controller) who could easi-
ly take over the job. Huening has served in local government
for 31 years, rst as a member of the San Mateo County
community college board (1981-86), then as a member of
the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors (1986-98) and
nally as county controller (1998-2012). He has a pension
and his health care costs are covered.
Huening is unique in so
many ways. He is writing
his second book on religion.
The rst, Spiritual
Choices: Putting the HERE
in Hereafter was published
on line in 2007 and has sold
about 300 copies. While he
was raised as a Catholic and
went to Catholic schools
and colleges, his beliefs are
mostly neutral on organized
religion. Since we really
dont know what the here-
after is, he explained, we
better take advantage of the
here. And he certainly continues to live a full and exciting
life.
***
Huening grew up in the suburbs of Chicago. He was one
of 12 children and the oldest son. He was not a good student
(girls) and worked after high school. He eventually attended
DePaul University and then attended Navy ight training
school in Pensacola.
I liked speed and living on the edge, he said.
He spent ve years in the Navy, much of it during the
Vietnam War where he ew training missions and provided
targets. After he left the Navy he worked for TWA as a pilot
ight engineer. He was furloughed by TWA for six-and-a-
half years. He worked for Coldwell Banker in real estate in
San Jose until he was called back by the airline. By then, he
and his family had moved to Hillsborough and to San Mateo
in 1985.
***
Huening is also one of the few successful Republican
politicians in San Mateo County and the only Republican on
the Board of Supervisors when he served with Democrats
Tom Nolan, Anna Eshoo, Bill Shumaker, Mary Grifn and
Mike Nevin. He ran as the Republican candidate for
Congress in 1998 and lost to Eshoo. He says he is scally
conservative but moderate on social issues. He refused to
join San Mateo Rotary until they accepted women in 1987.
The reason? He has four daughters.
***
And that brings us to the women in his life. Huenings rst
serious girlfriend was when he was 16 years old and in high
school. Fifty-ve years later, they are still good friends. He
married when he was 20 and a handsome y-boy. He and his
wife had four daughters but after 15 years of marriage the
couple divorced but remained best friends. Later on, he mar-
ried Denise DeVille, former head of SAMCEDA and an
unsuccessful candidate for the Board of Supervisors. She
lost to Rich Gordon. Huening said he and Denise remain
good friends. He still retains his good looks and probably
heads the list of the countys most eligible bachelors with
nine grandchildren.
***
Huenings political career is also unique because twice he
defeated an incumbent. In 1981, he was recruited by Eleanor
Nettle and Bud Bostwick to run for the community college
board against Bob Tarver. In 1998, he successfully beat Jerry
Trias for the job of county controller. By then, the once poor
student, had a masters in business and a law degree.
Huening is pleased the supervisors appointed his assistant
as his replacement. He supports the change to an appointed
rather than an elected controller but feels the position still
needs to be independent. He recommends a 10-year term
during which the controller could not be removed except in a
public process for cause. And now that Huening has retired
from public ofce, does he see himself winding down?
Absolutely not. Even though he just gave up running four to
ve miles a day he continues to be an avid cyclist and rides
his bike at least 54 miles a week. He has set a goal of either
walking/biking 25,000 miles in his lifetime. He is also in the
midst of writing a third book, this one on John Kelly, a fel-
low Rotarian, former priest, Sierra high school teacher and
head of Samaritan House. Huening may have walked away
from his county job but hes sprinting to circumvent the
earth (Thats the 25,000 mile goal).

BUSINESS 10
By Bernard Condon
NEW YORK For investors, this
restaurant chain is as hot as the red chili
salsa on its menus. Maybe hotter. Maybe
too hot.
The stock of Chipotle Mexican Grill
has climbed four-fold in ve years, and
for good reason. Most quarters, the com-
pany would report surprisingly high
earnings and investors would clamor to
buy. But last month, the pattern broke.
Chipotle posted blockbuster earnings,
but investors sold.
The companys sin? It missed its target
for revenues. The stock fell 21 percent,
from $404 to $317, in a day.
Chipotle is not alone. Six in 10 big
companies reporting second-quarter
results have missed revenue targets,
according to FactSet, a nancial data
provider. That is the worst showing since
the recession.
Companies meeting expectations
arent doing so well, either. Overall,
companies in the Standard & Poors 500
are expected to have increased revenue 2
percent in the second quarter, according
to S&P Capital IQ. That is the lowest
growth, outside of a recession, in more
than nine years.
Demand is drying up, says Michael
Thompson, managing director of S&P
Capital IQ. Im worried. Im very wor-
ried.
So are investors. On Wednesday,
Priceline.com fell $117 to $562 after
reporting revenue that was lower than
analysts had expected. The story has
been the same for dozens of companies
across industries, from Coach, a luxury
goods retailer, to Boston Scientific,
which sells medical devices, to glass-
container maker Owens-Illinois.
Revenue matters because its a good
path, though not the only one, to higher
prots. If you sell more, you will often
earn more. Companies in the S&P 500
index increased revenue 11 percent last
year. That helped lift earnings 16 percent
to a record high.
But now companies are having trouble
getting people to buy more. The U.S.
economy grew at an annual pace of just
1.5 percent in the April-June period.
And growth abroad is faltering, too.
Many of the 17 countries that use the
euro are in recession. Brazil and China
are slowing. On Friday, China reported
that export growth slumped to 1 percent
in July, down from 11 percent a month
earlier.
For all the ominous news, most
investors are still buying stocks. The
S&P 500 is up 11 percent so far this
year. That is because in the end, all that
matters is earnings, not revenue. And
earnings, after barely rising in the sec-
ond and third quarters, are supposed to
explode.
Wall Street analysts who advise
investors on stocks expect earnings to
rise 10 percent in the fourth quarter and
12 percent for all of 2013, according to
S&P Capital IQ. But their expectations
for revenues dont seem to jive with the
optimistic prot picture. Revenues are
expected to rise only 3 percent in the
fourth quarter, then drop nearly 2 per-
cent for all of 2013.
Economist Ed Yardeni, head of
Yardeni Research, says hes hoping
companies will post higher revenue, but
he doesnt think thats likely.
If anything, they will surprise on
earnings, he says, meaning earnings
will come in lower than expected.
Previously when revenue has faltered,
companies were able to cut costs to com-
pensate. They laid off workers, squeezed
remaining staff and used technology to
run more efciently.
Despite profit, stocks sink
By Stephen Ohlemacher
WASHINGTON As millions of
baby boomers ood Social Security with
applications for benets, the programs
$2.7 trillion surplus is starting to look
small.
For nearly three decades Social
Security produced big surpluses, collect-
ing more in taxes from workers than it
paid in benefits to retirees, disabled
workers, spouses and children. The sur-
pluses also helped mask the size of the
budget decit being generated by the
rest of the federal government.
Those days are over.
Since 2010, Social Security has been
paying out more in benets than it col-
lects in taxes, adding to the urgency for
Congress to address the programs long-
term nances.
To me, urgent doesnt begin to
describe it, said Chuck Blahous, one of
the public trustees who oversee Social
Security. I would say were somewhere
between critical and too late to deal with
it.
The Social Security trustees project
the surplus will be gone in 2033. Unless
Congress acts, Social Security would
only collect enough tax revenue each
year to pay about 75 percent of benets,
triggering an automatic reduction.
Lawmakers from both political parties
say they want to avoid such a dramatic
benet cut for people who have retired
and might not have the means to make
up the lost income. Still, that scenario is
more than two decades away, which is
why many in Congress are willing to put
off changes.
But once the surplus is spent, the
annual funding gaps start off big and
grow fast, which could make them hard
to rein in if Congress procrastinates.
The projected shortfall in 2033 is $623
billion, according to the trustees latest
report. It reaches $1 trillion in 2045 and
nearly $7 trillion in 2086, the end of a
75-year period used by Social Securitys
number crunchers because it covers the
retirement years of just about everyone
working today.
Add up 75 years worth of shortfalls
and you get an astonishing gure: $134
trillion. Adjusted for inflation, thats
$30.5 trillion in 2012 dollars, or eight
times the size of this years entire feder-
al budget.
Social Security surplus dwarfed by future deficit
Social media proves a force in consuming Olympics
NEW YORK The London Olympics may well be remem-
bered as the event that drove home the power of social media
partly to the chagrin but mostly to the benet of NBC,
which controlled images of the games in the United States.
Twitter estimates there were more than 50 million tweets
about the Olympics, at a pace of 80,000 per minute after
Jamaicas Usain Bolt won the gold medal in the 200-meter
sprint. Facebook saw the number of fans of Olympic athletes
soar: American gymnast Gabby Douglas had 14,358 followers
on July 27 and 540,174 less than two weeks later.
All of the activity pumped up interest in the games. NBC
executives privately anticipated the London games would have
a smaller audience than the Beijing Olympics of 2008. Instead,
the networks prime-time audience averaged 31.5 million peo-
ple a night through Friday, up 12 percent from Beijing.
Many factors surely drove interest, like compelling competi-
tion and the amount of coverage available on TV and online.
Maybe a recession-weary world wanted a collective, uplifting
experience.
John C. Schrup, president and CEO of
United American Bank, announced the
appointment of Teresa Adam as vice pres-
ident-branch manager in the Half Moon
Bay ofce.
Adam has more than 40 years of banking
experience and was most recently branch
manager for US Bank in Half Moon Bay. A
leader in the community, Ms. Adams is an
active Rotarian and member of the Half
Moon Bay Coastside Chamber of
Commerce & Visitors Bureau, Boys and Girls Club, BNI and
Half Moon Bay Garden Club.
United American Bank has ofces in San Mateo, Redwood
City, Sunnyvale and Half Moon Bay.

As make 3
errors, fail to
cover home
in 7-3 loss
CHICAGO Of several gaffes
the Oakland Athletics made on
Sunday, there was one that stuck out
to manager Bob Melvin: failing to
cover home plate in the seventh
inning.
The play was embarrassing,
obviously, Melvin said after a 7-3
defeat to the Chicago White Sox.
Wasnt our best defensive day.
Oakland made three errors and
fell 6 1/2 games behind the rst-
place Texas Rangers in the AL West.
The As lost two of three in the
weekend series and could be losing
third baseman Brandon Inge to the
disabled list.
A.J. Pierzynski scored from rst
on Alexei Ramirezs seventh-inning
groundout to shortstop, as third
baseman Adam Rosales and short-
stop Cliff Pennington bumped on
the play. No one was at the plate,
with catcher Derek Norris scram-
bling to third as Pierzynski.
We didnt cover that very well,
so that doesnt sit very well with
anybody, Melvin said.
Pennington had two throwing
errors as Oakland lost for the fth
time in eight games.
To make things worse, the As
announced after the game that Inge,
who separated his shoulder on
Saturday, could miss an extended
period of time. Inge will y back to
Oakland to have an MRI on
Monday. Its uncertain if a trip to the
disabled list is imminent.
The only report I want to hear is
if theres anything I could damage
that could be long-term, Inge said.
If theres nothing on film that
shows that I cant hurt anything, its
play through the pain whatever I
can tolerate. Id rather that than any-
thing else. Fifteen days for me feels
like an eternity.
Inge has provided a veteran pres-
ence to a young, inexperienced
team, which has stayed in con-
tention in the AL wild-card race.
We put a lot of weight on his
shoulders, Jonny Gomes said.
Were not letting balls go
between our legs or throwing to
the wrong base, just baseball mis-
takes that we rely on Brandon for.
Weve been winning a lot of games
taking advantage of mistakes. At
the same time, thats how we lose
games.
Men win gold
By Brian Mahoney
LONDON This was no Dream Team. This
was reality.
The gold medal was in doubt for the U.S.
mens basketball team.
The Americans led Spain by only one point
after three quarters, a back-and-forth, impossible-
to-turn-away-from game that almost anyone
would hope for in an Olympic nal.
Especially, it turns out, the U.S. players.
We knew it wasnt going to be easy. We didnt
want it easy, LeBron James said. A lot of teams
have won gold easy. We didnt want it that way.
Were a competitive team, and we love when it
gets tight. Thats when our will and determina-
tion kind of shows. It was the same way in 08.
Same result, too.
The Americans defended their title Sunday by
ghting off another huge challenge from Spain,
pulling away in the nal minutes for a 107-100
victory and their second straight Olympic cham-
pionship.
And just like 2008, the star-studded Americans
had to work for this one.
The London 2012 daily magazine proclaimed
them the new Dream Team in an article, but the
real Dream Team never had a game like this 20
years ago in Barcelona. And if that means this
group isnt worthy of the comparisons to Michael
Jordan, Magic Johnson, Larry Bird and Co., the
players had their own response.
Everybody wants to make that comparison,
but at the end of the day were both wearing
these, forward Kevin Love said, pulling on his
gold medal. Thats pretty good.
James capped one of basketballs most brilliant
individual years with a monster dunk and a huge
3-pointer in the nal 2:50 that nally ended a
Spanish threat few expected after the Americans
had been so dominant for so long in London.
Yet four years after beating Spain 118-107 in a
classic in Beijing, the U.S. found itself in anoth-
er tight one, unable to ever really slow the
Spanish down until the closing minutes.
Kevin Durant scored 30 points and James had
19 on a day he joined Jordan as the only players
to win the NBA title, regular-season MVP, NBA
Finals MVP and Olympic gold in the same year.
It was a good year. It was a great year for me
as an individual, James said. But this right here,
it means more than myself, it means more than
my name on my back. It means everything to the
name on the front. Im happy that I was able to
contribute to this great team. Its one of the best
teams ever.
Coach Mike Krzyzewski, who has said hes
retiring as national team coach after restoring the
Americans to their place atop world basketball,
emptied his bench in the nal minute
James stood with both arms in the air, then held
Durant in a long hug before they came off the
court.
The Americans, who insisted they were better
than their 2008 version and even good enough to
take a game from the 1992 Dream Team, may not
have been at that level.
Still, they were better again than Spain
though not by much.
When the nal horn sounded, Krzyzewski
locked James in a tight embrace as Bruce
Springsteens Born In The USA rocked the
arena.
The Americans hugged at midcourt, guard

cot, and then after being handed ags, this group

time together, paraded around the
oor, the Stars and Stripes owing
off their backs like capes.
Yes, they were Olympic super-
heroes again, but they had to ght
until the nish.
To do it twice is a special
moment, Carmelo Anthony said.
As the U.S. mens team, we go
through a lot. For us to persevere the
way we did is just a special moment
for myself, and for the guys who are
on this team.
For Kobe Bryant, it was his last
Olympic moment.
This is it for me, said Bryant,
who scored 17 points and now has a
second gold medal to go with his
five NBA championships. The
other guys are good to go.
Pau Gasol scored 24 points and
Juan Carlos Navarro had 21 for
Spain, which was again just a few
minutes from its first basketball
gold but couldnt finish the job
against the Americans.
The U.S. came in averaging near-
ly 117 points and stomping on their
competition with such ease that
even the Olympics own daily pre-
view had a hard time envisioning
intrigue, writing that it would like-
ly take a great game from Spain and
an off-day from the USA to cause
an upset.
Well, Spain brought the great
game and trailed by only a point
heading into the fourth quarter.
But the Spanish somehow lost
sight of James, and the games best
player drove uncontested and threw
it down for a 99-91 lead with 2:48
left. After Marc Gasol dunked,
James dribbled outside the circle
with Marc Gasol giving him just a
bit too much room, and James
pulled up for the 3 that made it 102-
93 with 1:59 to play.
Pau Gasol then was called for an
offensive foul on a pick, and the
Americans could sense that it was
over.
Gasol, who carried the ag for
Spain in the opening ceremony,
nearly carried his country to its
greatest Olympic basketball glory,
but had a big miss inside with Spain
down by six about three minutes to
go, screaming out loud in frustra-
tion as he went back down the court.
I am disappointed, but on the
other side Im very proud how of
the we competed, how we played,
Gasol said. We fought for 40 min-
utes. I am proud of having another
Olympic medal around my neck.
Its disappointing because I
thought we had our chance. We
were right there pretty much the
entire game. We let them get away
in the fourth and we couldnt get
back.
It was the 14th gold medal for the
Americans, who lost at least ve
players who might have been on the
team when Dwight Howard,
Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh and
Derrick Rose had to pull out with
injuries and Blake Grifn was hurt
in training camp.
Along the way, they showed they
could be vulnerable during their
exhibition schedule, falling into
early holes against Brazil and
Spain, having to hold on against
Argentina.
Any concerns once they arrived in
London seemed to be wiped away
as quickly as the way the Americans
play.
They were tested only once, beat-
ing Lithuania 99-94, and the statis-
tics revealed a tournament that was
more varsity against junior varsity
than best in the world against each
other. The Americans came in lead-
ing the tournament in eight statisti-
cal categories, with laughably lop-
sided advantages in points off
turnovers (198-77) and fast-break
points (175-55).
James didnt seem too concerned
Sunday, laughing his way through
warmups, even when he badly
botched a dunk.
He and the Americans would
soon realize this one wasnt going
to be all fun and games.
They used an 18-4 run to wipe out
their early five-point deficit and
made seven 3-pointers in the rst
quarter, yet led by only eight points.
Spain then opened the second peri-
od with a 12-2 burst, taking a 39-37
lead on a 3-pointer by Sergio
Rodriguez.
Spain, long considered a nesse
team, came to ght in this one,
Rodriguez delivering a blow to
Tyson Chandlers ribs while setting
a pick that led to technical fouls on
both players.
Both teams grew frustrated with
the ofciating Spain in particular
when Marc Gasol was called for his
fourth foul while going for a
rebound with 5:29 remaining in the
rst half. The Spanish scored their
nal seven points on free throws,
cutting the U.S. lead to 59-58.
Though a gold-medal rematch
was expected before the Olympics,
the Spanish struggled in London,
losing twice in the preliminary
round and saying that just getting to
the gold medal game was an accom-
plishment given some injuries they
faced. The Americans waved off
Spains claims of being tired and
hurt, and, sure enough, the Spanish
team they expected showed up in
the nal, believing they could pull it
off.
Of course we did. We wouldnt
be playing if we didnt think we had
a chance, Marc Gasol said. Give
them a lot of credit. They made a lot
of shots tough shots. They have
so many options, great players and
they made shots.
Size was always the Americans
biggest obstacle, and the 7-foot-1
Pau Gasol dominated them to start
the second half, scoring Spains rst
13 points to give them a 71-70 lead
at the midpoint of the third quarter.
Serge Ibaka at 6-10 also hurt the
U.S. inside, and the Americans led
only 83-82 heading into the fourth.

Victory by the mens basketball
team gave the United States its 46th
gold medal in London, the most ever
by Americans in a road Olympics.
The U.S. won 104 medals overall. It
took home 45 golds from Paris in
1924 and Mexico City in 1968.
Those totals are still far behind the
83 golds (174 overall) at the 1984
Los Angeles Games, boycotted by
the Soviet Union, and 78 golds (a
whopping 239 overall) at the 1904
St. Louis Games.
China nished with 38 golds, its
most ever on foreign soil. Britain,
riding home-eld support, savored
its best Olympics in more than a cen-
tury with 29 golds and 65 medals.
Russia had 24 golds and 82 overall.
Australia nished with a disap-
pointing seven golds, half as many as
it won in Beijing.
London brought the curtain down
on a glorious, $14.5 billion
Olympics with a little British pomp
and a lot of British pop. It was deliv-
ered in a psychedelic mashup that

stomping, cheering and singing

Highlights of Day 16 of the London Olympics
By Jill Lawless
LONDON Im talking bout my genera-
tion, sang The Who, capping a raucous, rock
n roll Olympic closing ceremony
But which generation? When the band mem-
bers rst sang My Generation, they were in
their 20s. Now they are pushing 70.
Like the Olympic torch passing from one
runner to another, the London games closing
ceremony was an all-
ages affair designed to
show the ame of British
creativity leaping from
one age group to the
next.
The 21-year-old
singer Ed Sheeran sang
Wish You Were Here
with members of Pink Floyd and Genesis.
Jessie J belted out We Will Rock You with
Queens Brian May. The Kaiser Chiefs played
The Whos Pinball Wizard.
The Spice Girls took us back to the Cool
Britannia 1990s and the Pet Shop Boys to the
synth-loving 1980s.
A ceremony that director Kim Gavin called
an elegant mashup of music and creativity
was designed to show that the British Invasion
never ended, thank you very much.
Its about how good British music is in the
world, and how global it is, Gavin said a day
before the ceremony.
So there was Annie Lennox and George
Michael, who got their start in the 80s but
the roars that greeted Michaels Freedom and
Lennoxs Little Bird suggested both are still
going strong.
If that was too old hat, there was One
Direction, boy band of the moment, as well as
Tinie Tempah, Jessie J and Taio Cruz who
performed their own songs, then a Bee Gees
track from the golden age of disco.
There was Elbow the kind of serious band
music journalists love as respite for those
who probably found the rest a bit cheesy.
And if that was all insufciently quirky, there
was a brass band playing Madness; a Guards
band in scarlet tunics and bearskin hats playing
Blur; and Monty Pythons Eric Idle singing
Always Look on the Bright Side of Life
accompanied by centurions, bagpipers and
roller-skating nuns.
We heard the voices and songs of the depart-
ed Queens Freddie Mercury singing
Bohemian Rhapsody, Liverpool choirs per-
forming John Lennons Imagine.
There were some notable absences: No
Rolling Stones the band said they were out
of practice. No Elton John, although he did
record one of the ofcial games anthems.
There was a David Bowie montage, but no
Bowie in person.
It wasnt just about the music. Gavin said he
wanted to show how U.K. culture, media,
music are locked together to create the next big
thing.
So there was a nod to Britains scandal-tarred
but vibrant press, in the newsprint-covered
landmarks and vehicles of the opening scene.
There was fashion. We saw 1960s Mods,
whose sharply tailored look can be seen in the
modern designs of Tom Ford and others. There
were images of supermodels in designs by
Vivienne Westwood, Paul Smith, Alexander
McQueen and Victoria Beckham, now a
designer as well as a Spice Girl.
One of the models was even a Jagger
Georgia May Jagger, daughter of Rolling Stone
Mick.
The show rocked the 80,000 spectators
inside Olympic Stadium, but didnt get rave
reviews from those watching on TV. Some
found it too kitschy, or too incomprehensible
youngsters wondering who Ray Davies
was, parents scratching their heads at One
Direction.

INDIANAPOLIS Andrew
Luck knows life in the NFL cant be
this easy for a rookie.
The No. 1 overall draft pick threw
his rst NFL pass for a long touch-
down, just like Peyton Manning in
1998, then led Indianapolis to two
more touchdowns. Luck one-upped
his predecessor by winning
Sundays preseason opener 38-3
over St. Louis Indys rst presea-
son-opening win since 1994.
To get a win, get in the game and
put some drives together is great,
Luck said. But I realize, and the
guys in the locker room realize, its
a preseason game and things will be
different as the season goes along.
Luck might have the toughest job
in football this season replacing
Manning, the longtime face of
Indys franchise.
But he showed everyone Sunday
that he can do whatever is asked.
Colts coaches wanted the man
billed as the most polished NFL
rookie since Manning to take 20 to
25 snaps. He got 24.
They wanted to keep him upright,
and though Luck hit the ground
twice, he was not sacked.
They wanted him to show his
command of the offense, and in less
than one half, Luck seemed to have
Mannings playbook down pat,
from the perfect baseball slide to
rushing his team to the line of
scrimmage so the Rams couldnt
challenge a catch on the sideline.
The rookie quarterback wound
up 10 of 16 for 188 yards with two
TD passes and a quarterback rating
of 142.6. Three of the incomple-
tions were drops, two were throw-
aways, and only one pass, the deep
out that rookie T.Y. Hilton barely
caught on the sideline, came close
to being picked off. It was the most
lopsided preseason win for the
Colts (No. 32 in the AP Pro32)
since a 35-0 rout of Washington in
1966.
I know we picked him up off the
turf a couple times, but hes a big,
strong, athletic guy and he can take
a hit. We dont want him taking too
many, but to see him perform the
way he did and do the things that he
did under pressure, I thought he
handled it well, new coach Chuck
Pagano said.
After everything the Colts
endured during the run up to draft-
ing Luck the injury to Manning,
an 0-13 start in 2011, the release of
many fan favorites including
Manning during a tumultuous off-
season Luck quickly turned the
page on the past with a start fans
may never forget.,
With the rookie quarterback
under pressure on his rst play,
Luck calmly stepped forward and
dumped the ball off to Brown, who
darted up the eld with blockers in
front, then cut from right to left and
outran the defense to the end zone.
Luck pumped his st in the air and
jogged to the sideline with a broad
smile across his face.
Longtime Colts fans had seen it
before. Back in 98, Mannings rst
pass was an 8-yard route to Marvin
Harrison, who took the ball and
sprinted to the end zone for a 48-
yard score.

NAPA Terrelle Pryor has been
waiting a long time to play in a foot-
ball game.
After an aborted rookie season
with the Oakland Raiders that
included no preseason games and a
penalty before his only snap in the
regular season, Pryor is more than
ready for this seasons exhibition
opener. Pryor will get that chance
Monday night when the Raiders
(tied for No. 23 in the AP Pro32)
play at home against the Dallas
Cowboys (No. 15, AP Pro32).
While Oakland coach Dennis
Allen is not even telling his players
how much or when they will play,
he did say Pryor would get plenty of
snaps at quarterback behind starter
Carson Palmer and Matt Leinart.
I cant wait, Pryor said. Its
been a long time for me to play
football. Its what I was born to do.
God blessed me. He gave me great
talent and I just want to try to ... use
it again. Its been a long time.
Pryor got very little out of a rook-
ie season that was doomed from the
start. He didnt decide to leave Ohio
State until after the NFL draft fol-
lowing an investigation into the
teams memorabilia-for-cash scan-
dal that cost coach Jim Tressel his
job.
Commissioner Roger Goodell
allowed Pryor into the supplemental
draft but ruled he must serve the
five-game suspension he would
have faced in college. The Raiders
used a third-round pick on Aug. 22
to select Pryor and signed him three
days later.
Pryor got to participate in only
three practices and no exhibition
games before his suspension kicked
in, limiting him to team meetings
and individual drills without coach-
es.
Even when Pryor was activated,
he mostly was a scout-team quarter-
back as the third-stringer behind
Palmer and Kyle Boller.
Pryor got in once last season on
Oct. 23 against Kansas City. He was
sent in for a third-and-1 quarterback
sneak. Pryor said he was told to call
for a quick snap and go for the rst
down.
Instead, he was penalized for a
false start for not pausing a second
under center before the snap.
Boller threw an interception that
was returned for a touchdown on the
following play and Pryor never saw
the eld again that season.
He gures to get much more time
Monday night.
Terrelle Pryor excited for exhibition opener

KIAWAH ISLAND, S.C. Right down to
his red shirt, Rory McIlroy looked every bit
the part of golfs next star in another com-
mand performance at the PGA
Championship.
McIlroy validated his record-setting U.S.
Open win last year by blowing away the eld
Sunday at Kiawah Island. One last birdie from
25 feet on the 18th hole gave him a 6-under 66
for an eight-shot victory, breaking the PGA
Championship record for margin of victory
that Jack Nicklaus set in 1980.
The 23-year-old from Northern Ireland
returned to No. 1 in the world, and he became
the youngest player since Seve Ballesteros to
win two majors. Tiger Woods was about four
months older than McIlroy when he won his
second major.
Just like the U.S. Open, this one was never
seriously in doubt.
McIlroy seized control with back-to-back
birdies Sunday morning to complete the
storm-delayed third round with a 67 and build
a three-shot lead. No one got closer than two
shots the rest of the way, and McIlroy closed
out a remarkable week by playing bogey-free
over the nal 23 holes of a demanding Ocean
Course.
David Lynn, a 38-year-old from England
who was playing in America for the rst time,
won the B-ight. He closed with a 68 and was
the runner-up.
Woods, who shared the 36-hole lead for the
second time this year in a major, was never a
serious factor. He tossed away his chances
Saturday before the storm blew in and never
could get closer than four shots. He closed
with a 72, failing to break par on the weekend
in any of the four majors for the rst time in
his career.
If there was a signature shot for McIlroy at
Kiawah Island, it might have been Saturday
when his tee shot lodged into a tree on the
third hole. He only found it with help from the
TV crew, took his penalty shot and red a
wedge into 6 feet to save par. He was on his
way, and he never let up.
McIlroy also won the U.S. Open by eight
shots, the kind of dominance that Woods has
displayed over so many years.
By winning the PGA Championship, he is
halfway home to the career Grand Slam.
It was a great round of golf. Im speech-
less, said McIlroy after hoisting the
Wanamaker Trophy, the heaviest of the four
majors. Its just been incredible. I had a good
feeling about it at the start. I never imagined
to do this.
Winning the nal major the year ends what
had been a tumultuous season for McIlroy.
Despite winning the Honda Classic in early
March, he went into a tail spin by missing
four cuts over ve tournaments, as questions
swirled that his romance with tennis star
Caroline Wozniacki was hurting his game.
Instead, McIlroy put a big hurt on the
strongest eld of the year.
Hes very good. We all know the talent he
has, Woods said. He went through a little
spell this year, and I think that was good for
him. We all go through those spells in our
careers. Hes got all the talent in the world to
do what hes doing. And this is the way that
Rory can play. When he gets it going, its pret-
ty impressive to watch.
McIlroy nished on 13-under 275.
Ian Poulter put up the stiffest challenge,
though not for long. Poulter, who started the
nal round six shots behind, made six birdies
through seven holes to get within two shots.
He made three straight bogeys on the back
nine and had to settle for a 69. He tied for
third at 4-under 284, along with Justin Rose
(66) and defending champion Keegan Bradley
(68).
In the nal qualifying event for the U.S.
Ryder Cup team, nothing changed.
Phil Mickelson was holding down the
eighth and nal spot, and he stayed there
when neither Bo Van Pelt nor Steve Stricker
could make a move on the back nine. Davis
Love III will announce four captains picks in
three weeks.
McIlroy was tied for the lead with Vijay
Singh when he returned Sunday. Twenty-
seven holes later, he had no peer in the nal
major of the year.
When he won the U.S. Open last year,
Padraig Harrington suggested that perhaps
McIlroy not Woods might be the one to
challenge the record 18 majors won by Jack
Nicklaus. That looked like nothing more than
one Irishman boosting another when McIlroy
didnt come close in the next ve majors.
But now?
I think winning his second major is going
to make things a lot easier for him,
Harrington said. I think last year he proved
it, but theres been ups and downs since his
last major win because of the pressure and the
expectations and the hype. Now hes delivered
again. Its going to be a lot easier for him
going forward. And hell get better.
McIlroy went out in 33, saving par with a
10-foot putt on the ninth hole. Thats what
Woods used to do in the majors.
Poulters birdie on the par-5 11th hole
closed the gap to two shots, but not for long.
From the sandy area short of the 10th green,
McIlroy blasted out and closed his eyes when
the wind blew sand into his face. He never
saw the ball check a foot from the cup. And
with a 10-foot birdie on the 12th, there was no
stopping him.
The win ends a streak of the last 16 majors
going to 16 different winners. McIlroy joined
Woods, Harrington and Mickelson as the only
players to win majors in consecutive years
over the last two decades.
It means an awful lot to look at the names
on that trophy, and to put my name alongside
them is very special, McIlroy said.
Pettersson tried to put up a good ght,
though he suffered a setback on the rst hole
without even realizing it.
The Swede drove just inside a red hazard
line. He checked to make sure his club could
touch the grass without grounding the club.
That part was ne. However, PGA rules of-
cials determined after scrutinizing a video
replay that a small leaf that moved as
Pettersson took back the club. That violates
Rule 13-4c moving a loose impediment
while in a hazard and three holes later he
was informed it was a two-shot penalty. The
par became a double bogey.
Pettersson responded with back-to-back
birdies. By then, it was too late for Pettersson,
really too late for anybody.
McIlroy might have won this major before
breakfast.
He was among 26 players who had to return
Sunday morning, playing the back nine to n-
ish the storm-delayed third round. Tied with
Vijay Singh at 6-under par, McIlroy missed
two short birdie chances, and then made
bogey on the 13th. He rebounded with birdies
on the 15th and 16th, a tough bunker save on
the 17th and a closing par for a 67 that gave
him a three-shot lead.
Not once during the nal round did the kid
look like he was going to lose this one.
After going back to his island home for
breakfast, a quick nap and a change of clothes
a bright red shirt, no less McIlroy
looked solid as ever. After pulling his
approach on the par-5 second hole under a
tree, he hit wedge off the wood chips to 6 feet
for birdie. He came up just short of the green
at No. 3, where the tees were moved up to
play 293 yards, and hit an even better ip
wedge to a tiny target on an elevated green.
McIlroy holed a 15-foot birdie putt, and he
was on his way.
Woods stepped into a cactus while hitting
out of the dunes on the 15th hole in the morn-
ing, and his day got even more painful from
there. He has gone 14 majors since winning
his last one, No. 14, at the 2008 U.S. Open.
He looks to be closer, with three PGA Tour
wins this year and two 36-hole leads in the
majors.
His regret when it was over he tied for
11th was all about attitude.
I came out with the probably the wrong
attitude yesterday, he said. And I was too
relaxed, and tried to enjoy it, and thats now
how I play. I play intense and full systems go.
That cost me.
It might not have mattered.
McIlroy said earlier in the week that he only
wanted to give himself a chance, to feel that
buzz of being in contention in the nal round.
He wound up putting the buzz back into golf,
a sport in which all the talk has been about
parity.
McIlroys name on the leaderboard means
something.
Rory is showing that his A game, every-
body else is going to struggle to compete with
him, Harrington said. And Tiger needs his
A game to come up against Rory. ... If Rory
is playing as well as he is, Tiger is not going
to pick a major off unless hes got his A
game out there.

Honest, professional and reliable. Yelp
By Rusty Miller
SYLVANIA, Ohio Even
though it had only been a little over
a year since her victory in the U.S.
Womens Open, So Yeon Ryu was
already feeling the pressure to win
again.
She lapped the eld to end the
drought Sunday.
Ryu rode a string of six straight
birdies in the middle of her round to
a 9-under 62 and a seven-stroke vic-
tory in the Jamie Farr Toledo
Classic.
This is just my turning point,
she said. I want to win again.
Ryu began the day locked in a
four-player logjam all South
Koreans for rst place. She took
the lead by herself for the rst time
with an 8-foot birdie putt at the third
hole and gradually stretched her
advantage until pulling away with
birdies on Nos. 9-14.
On hole No. 9, I made a really
long putt and my condence level
went up, she said.
Still, a good friend had provided a
cautionary tale. Yeon Jae Son, com-
peting for South Korea in rhythmic
gymnastics at the London
Olympics, was in line to medal
heading into the nal day of compe-
tition. But, she told Ryu by phone,
she had gotten ahead of herself and
ended up missing out on a trip to the
podium.
Ryu took that to heart on the
course.
It made me nervous because I
really wanted to win. ... She helped
a lot, Ryu said about the message
imparted by her friend. I didnt
want to be thinking of winning. I
was just thinking about my score.
Ryu ended up at 20-under 264
thanks to the lowest nal round by a
Farr winner by three strokes.
On the third hole, she hit her
approach from the light rough to 8
feet over the ag and made the
birdie putt to break free of the pack.
She added a 12-footer for birdie
at the par-4 fth to double her lead.
The lead could have grown even
more; Ryu missed birdie putts of 8,
6 and 10 feet at Nos. 4, 6 and 7.
Then, after I.K. Kim, who shot a
71 and ended up tied for fth with
Jennie Lee (67) at 11 under, nar-
rowed her lead to a shot, Ryu rolled
in a 30-footer from the front of the
green at the ninth hole.
From there she took control.
None of her next ve birdies were
outside 6 feet as she dialed in her
irons.
My ball-striking was great, she
said.
For good measure, she birdied the
last hole a kick-in from 2 feet
to cap her round.
Her 62 matched the fourth-best
round in tournament history. Her
20-under total has been surpassed
only by ve-time Farr winner Se Ri
Pak, considered the matriarch for a
generation of young South Korean
players on the LPGA Tour.
Ryu had picked up the game in
the second grade as part of her
schools extracurricular activities.
Shes also a gifted pianist.
Ryus birdie string gives her win in Farr LPGA
By John Kekis
N.Y. Slipping and sliding
around oil-spattered Watkins Glen
International on the last lap and
fighting for the lead, Marcos
Ambrose and Brad Keselowski did-
nt know what lay around the next
turn.
It was absolutely chaos at the
end, Ambrose said. I had really
burned off the brakes. I couldnt g-
ure out where it (the oil) was com-
ing from. It was just absolutely
crazy at the end.
Ambrose finally passed
Keselowski heading to the nal turn
in a stunning fender-banging duel to
win the Sprint Cup race at Watkins
Glen International for the second
straight time.
The oil had been spewing from
the No. 47 of Bobby Labonte and
ruined the day
for Kyle Busch,
who seemingly
held a com-
manding lead
heading to the
white ag of the
Finger Lakes
355.
In the end,
nobody knew
what was going
on, said Richard Petty, owner of
Ambroses No. 9 Ford. They were
slipping and sliding off the race
track. Marcos might have known a
little bit about it, but the rest of us
didnt. Marcos stayed with it all
day. Everything fell our way.
It didnt for Busch, who led 43
laps.
Kyle hit the oil, said Dave
Rogers, crew chief of Buschs No.
18 Toyota. The 47 broke. You can
see him, he just went by smoking.
He left oil down all over the track.
Kyle hit the oil and it allowed the 2
(Keselowski) to get to us.
Desperate for a win to move back
into contention for the Chase for the
Sprint Cup championship, Busch
skidded sideways coming out of the
first turn of the final lap.
Keselowskis No. 2 Dodge caromed
off the side of Busch heading uphill
through the high-speed esses and
Ambrose followed Keselowski
through as Busch spun to the side.
Busch slipped up big in turn
one, said Keselowski, who suffered
damage to the front of his car.
There was nothing he could do. We
all checked up and Marcos was
right on my bumper. We all just
about spun out. We got to the inner
loop, and again nothing but oil.
Skidding around the 11-turn,
2.45-mile layout, Ambrose and
Keselowski battled side by side
nearly all the way around. Both
even went into the grass in the inner
loop at the top of the esses but kept
charging.
I knew there was oil all over the
bus stop (inner loop), winning
crew chief Todd Parrott said. It
looked like the cars went through
the grass because there wasnt any
oil.
Ambrose slipped again in turn 10,
but Keselowski couldnt drive past.
Neither gave ground, and Ambrose
forged ahead on the final turn,
another hard right-hander, and
turned away Keselowskis final
charge on the outside.
I must have hit the oil one more
time and he didnt, Keselowski
said. I thought I had him.
Busch was not available for com-
ment after the race.
Entering the race, Ambrose had
one win and had never nished
lower than third in four starts at The
Glen for an average nish of 2.3 and
an average green ag speed of near-
ly 120 mph. Both were tops in the
series.
Jimmie Johnson was third to gain
the points lead by one over Greg
Biffle. Sonoma winner Clint
Bowyer and Sam Hornish Jr. were
next, giving Dodge, which is leav-
ing NASCAR at seasons end, two
in the top ve. Dale Earnhardt Jr.
spun late and nished 28th to fall
from rst to fourth in points, 17
behind Johnson.
Bife was sixth, and Busch, Matt
Kenseth, Regan Smith and Martin
Truex Jr. rounded out the top 10.
Ryan Newman finished 11th to
move back ahead of Jeff Gordon
into the second wild card slot.
Kasey Kahne, who has two wins,
holds the other.

ONDON Sebastian
Coe, the organizer-in-chief
who more than anyone
made the London Games possible,
is absolutely right. The Olympics
really are the Greatest Show on
Earth.
So cheers, mate, to you, London,
for reminding us of that fact.
Unlike four years ago in Beijing,
we could wrap ourselves in the
sport and the human drama here
without having to ignore our con-
science. In this splendid world city
that proved so telegenic, with
marat honers
sweating past
the Tower of
London and
cyclists zoom-
ing by
Buckingham
Palace, the
hairs on the
back of our neck tingled for all the
right reasons.
In short, after the 2008 Summer
Games that were as much about dis-
sidents and control as about sport,
we, the worlds people, got our
Olympics back. And they are just
that games for the entire planet.
Points in London were scored in
baskets, goals and on shooting tar-
gets, not in geopolitics. British
Prime Minister David Cameron did
display an uncanny knack for turn-
ing up at venues where hometown
athletes were scooping up gold. But
here, we could mock his oppor-
tunism.
Because these were games with
good humor aplenty. Moviemaker
Danny Boyle set the tone, parachut-
ing in stunt doubles of Queen
Elizabeth II and James Bond to his
quirky opening ceremony that sent
the message that this Olympic host
country was proud to show itself off
to the world, as they all are, but
could laugh at itself, too.
Above all, these were two weeks
devoted to sport and not the bag-
gage that often
goes with it.
And because
sport is one of
h u ma n i t y s
greatest inven-
tions, it was
two weeks
devoted to us,
a group hug
for the human
race.
The athletes
were the
actors, of
course, but we were their audience
and we lived the Olympics through
them, vicariously. They were us at
our most glorious, striving to go
faster, higher, stronger and be the
best we can be. Us shaking hands
and congratulating each other after
sweating bullets to beat each other.
Surely, the world would be a better
place if humans all got along like
we do at the Olympics. Why do we
seem able to do that only in two-
week bursts?
The Olympics are in the business
of manufacturing special moments,
and there were too many to list.
Mens 400-meter champion
Kirani James asking double-
amputee Oscar Pistorius for his
name bib to keep as a souvenir
reminded us that sportsmanship and
winning isnt everything dont have
to be mere slogans. The Olympic
Stadium crowd of 80,000 singing
along to All You Need Is Love on
the night Jessica Ennis led the hep-
tathletes she beat on a shared lap of
honor made the Beatles idealistic
lyrics seem possible, even true.
As much as Britons would love to
be able to bottle the glow of the
games, to bring out on one of their
many rainy days that mercifully
largely stayed away for the two
weeks, were not naive enough to
think that it will last.
As the Spice Girls and The Who
cleared their throats for Sunday
nights closing ceremony, foot-
ballers from Manchester City and
Chelsea spent the afternoon hacking
at each other in the Community
Shield game that starts the English
season, collecting eight yellow and
one red card. This was sport return-
ing to business as usual, ruled by
money and a stage for oversized
egos, not sport the noble endeavor
and higher calling it can seem at the
Olympics.
Seem being the operative word.
Because there was ugliness at the
London Games, too although in
mercifully small doses. Hypocrisy
reared its head in badminton, where
administrators suddenly got all
righteous and made an example of
eight players who didnt try hard
enough to win. British media vented
about empty seats at venues before
Team GB athletes gave them gold
medals to write home about. The
French sniped at the success of their
favorite enemies, the British.
Only 18, Colombian athlete
Diego Palomeque Echavarria was
going home not with a medal but
with the label cheat after lab tech-
nicians found testosterone in his
urine. Dozens of other frauds never
made it to London, caught by drug
tests that taxpayers largely fund. In
this case, our money was well spent.
So, too, was the 9.3 billion
pounds ($14.5 billion) Britons
forked out for this party. That was
far more than they were initially
told the games would cost. Olympic
gigantism is still a problem (other
than to add to Michael Phelps
record medal haul, do the games
really need 34 swimming events?)
But the use of temporary venues
showed future Olympic hosts alter-
natives to building white elephants.
The basketball and water polo are-
nas are among those that will be dis-
mantled.
And Olympic Park will become a
green lung for the long deprived
east of London, with ducks pad-
dling on cleaned-up waterways and
trees to picnic under.
But lets not get too serious. Not
after these Olympics where Usain
Bolt had us in stitches with his exu-
berant antics and declaration, I am
now a living legend. Bask in my
glory surely the gold-medal
quote of the games.
Not after the Incredible Hulk
a.k.a German discus thrower Robert
Harting gave us a hilarious victo-
ry celebration, ripping open his shirt
and jumping the hurdles.
And not after the cheery honesty
of British rider Scott Brash who,
asked about his gold medal in
equestrian team jumping, replied: I
really hope it improves my pulling
power with women.
It was all good and, we hope,
clean fun.
The Olympics as they should be.
Us, at our best.

TRANSACTIONS
MIAMI Chris Capuano was
well aware he was working on a no-
hit bid, thanks to a fan who con-
stantly gave him updates.
Capuano held Miami hitless until
the seventh inning and Hanley
Ramirez drove in three runs against
his former team, leading the Los
Angeles Dodgers over the Marlins
5-0 Sunday.
I started thinking about it a little
bit probably after the fth, sixth,
Capuano said. I had a nice heckler
today when I was in the on-deck cir-
cle that kept reminding me. I actual-
ly turned to him and said, Yeah, I
know.
Capuano (11-8) shut down the
Marlins until Jose Reyes lined a
clean single to center eld with one
out in the seventh.
Joses got a quick bat. I left one
over the middle and he smoked it,
Capuano said.
Capuano allowed two hits in eight
innings, striking out nine. The 33-
year-old lefty had lost his last three
starts with a 6.75 ERA in that span.
Hes tough and hes tough for a
younger club, Dodgers manager
Don Mattingly said.
Theyve got some older guys,
but theyve got some younger guys
that he can really pull the string and
rock you back and forth, hard, soft,
hard, soft. Thats tough for young
hitters, he said.
Ramirez, acquired in a trade with
the Marlins on July 25, hit a sacri-
ce y in the third. He added a two-
run single in eighth, giving him 500
career RBIs.
His swing is great and if he just
takes his hits, hes going to drive in
a ton of runs, but hes going to hit
more home runs too, Mattingly
said. Hanley can hit. He sees the
ball early. Hes a talented cat.
Capuano holds Miami hitless until 7th, Dodgers win

LOS ANGELES The Dark Knight
Rises has finally fallen out of first-place at
the weekend box office.
Jeremy Renners action tale The Bourne
Legacy took over as the No. 1 movie with a
$40.3 million debut, according to studio
estimates Sunday.
Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis politi-
cal comedy The Campaign opened at No.
2 with $27.4 million.
The new movies pushed The Dark Knight
Rises down to third-place with $19.5 mil-
lion, raising the superhero blockbusters
three-week domestic total to $390.1 million.
The weekends other new wide release,
Meryl Streep and Tommy Lee Jones marital
comic drama Hope Springs, opened at No.
4 with $15.6 million.
The Dark Knight Rises had been the No.
1 movie for three-straight weekends since
debuting amid tragedy as a gunman killed 12
people and wounded 58 at a midnight
screening of the film on opening day in
Colorado.
The violence seems to have had little
effect on the runaway success of the Batman
finale.
The opening weekend in our business is
very important, and this incident took place
before the picture officially opened. It took
place at a midnight screening. I cant give
you an actual number, but Im sure we were
affected on that opening, said Dan Fellman,
head of distribution for Warner Bros., which
released The Dark Knight Rises.
Universals The Bourne Legacy casts
Renner and Rachel Weisz in an offshoot of
the three hits that starred Matt Damon as
unstoppable operative Jason Bourne. Renner
plays an agent pursued by Bournes old spy
masters after they try to snuff out the espi-
onage program in a cover-up conspiracy.
The Bourne Legacy came in well behind
the $69.3 million debut of Damons last
entry in the series, 2007s The Bourne
Ultimatum. But the new film had a strong
start and establishes Renner as a sturdy
frontman to keep the franchise running.
I love the fact that we were able to reboot
this and do as well as we were able to. It
leaves it open for us to think about it going
forward, said Nikki Rocco, Universals
head of distribution. We are very much into
what its going to look like the next time.
While Damon was absent, his presence
is felt throughout The Bourne Legacy,
with characters commenting on Jason
Bourne sightings and his former handlers
jittery over the fact that the rogue agent is
still out there.
Renner is a bankable star to carry on solo,
but Universal might really cash in if the stu-
dio managed to lure Damon back.
The dream-team scenario of a Bourne
with both Damon and Renner would just be
irresistible, said Paul Dergarabedian, box-
office analyst for Hollywood.com. That
would be cool. Id be first in line for that.
The Campaign stars Ferrell and
Galifianakis as rivals in a mud-slinging con-
gressional election. Distributor Warner Bros.
hopes real-life politics can help keep the
movie afloat as the election season enters
the homestretch.
We hope so, Warner distribution boss
Fellman said. We hope they run their cam-
paigns a little more professionally than the
one in the movie, but sometimes, you have
to wonder.
Sonys Hope Springs, featuring Streep
and Jones as a couple in marriage therapy at
a weeklong retreat, had a modest start but
drew strongly among older women, a crowd
that does not tend to rush out in big numbers
over opening weekend.
Rory Bruer, Sonys head of distribution,
said the studio hopes the film will have a
long shelf life at theaters as women talk it up
to friends.
The Dark Knight Rises is nearing $400
million domestically and will become only
the second film in Warner Bros. history to
reach that mark. The first was 2008s The
Dark Knight, the middle chapter in director
Christopher Nolans Batman trilogy, which
topped out at $533.3 million.
Revenues for the finale are running 12 per-
cent behind The Dark Knight, which had
climbed to $441.6 million at the same point
in its theatrical run.
While the Colorado shootings may have
scared away some viewers, the Olympics
have dampened Hollywoods overall busi-
ness as fans stay home to watch the games.
The Dark Knight also had an advantage
the new film lacks: a mesmerizing, Academy
Award-winning performance by Heath
Ledger as the Joker, with the actors death
helping to fuel anticipation for the film.
All things considered, The Dark Knight
Rises is doing incredibly well,
Dergarabedian said.
The Dark Knight Rises has proven more
popular than its predecessor overseas, where
it has taken in $445.3 mil-
lion to give it a worldwide
total of $835 million. The
finale is on track to top the
$468 million international
total of The Dark Knight.

re trips in the car a nightmare for
you and your pet? They dont
have to be. For cats, the bad expe-
rience often starts right when they see you
pull out a cat carrier. To them, the mere
sight of the carrier could signal a trip to
your vet ofce or a boarding facility. Plus,
cats, in general, dont like being conned
like this. Odds are, they arent eager to
jump into the carrier; they may be cranky
or put up a royal battle. Your job is to
change the association to make these occa-
sional trips more pleasant or tolerable.
Theres that, plus you may need to use a
carrier in an emergency situation someday.
Creating a positive association is simple.
Open your carrier inside the home, and
place your cats bed, cat nip or a favorite
toy inside. Does your cat like curling up in
warm laundry? You can place a snugly
blanket in the carrier, too. If you do this
occasionally when you arent taking your
cat on a car trip, hell be more likely not to
put up a ght when you need to. Same idea
with dogs. If your dogs only car trips hap-
pen when you need to see a vet, he may
associate your car with a negative experi-
ence (even though us people love our
vets!). Dogs and cats use associations all
the time. I had a friend who used to take
her dog out to do her business before she
left for work in the morning; when the dog
did her business, she took her back inside
and left for work. After a week of this, her
dog got wise to the routine and stopped
going on these morning breaks. She knew
that as soon as she did her business, the fun
was over. So, my friend began making sure
that going to the bathroom did not signal
the end of the walk. Problem solved.

In 1949, Andres Oddstad built homes
on the northern slope of Sign Hill (at
Sterling Terrace) before moving on to
Pacica to develop Linda Mar.
Francisco Terrace was begun in 1949
along the newly developed Spruce
Avenue by El Camino Real. These one-
story homes were completed by the end
of 1950 and demonstrated that homes
could be built in this area, on the east
side of El Camino Real, where the
marshes of willows had been a barrier.
Spruce Avenue became a connecting
link to downtown South City and
opened the vast areas where once World
War II Army barracks of Lindenville
housing had been constructed. The
Lindenville housing was razed to make
way for an industrial section that would
produce much needed taxes for the
citys expansion.
In the 1950s, the High School
Division to the north-west of Spruce
High School was lled in with houses.
In the Southwood area, house con-
struction began after the South San
Francisco City Council accepted the
land west of El Camino Real on Dec.
15, 1958. Avalon Park, to the west of
Southwood, began its development
about the same time.
Sunshine Gardens had been a multi-
area piece of land that had been farmed
by many vegetable and ower growers.
In 1950, it was annexed to South San
Francisco and construction of houses
began in 1953. Avalon Park was begun
in 1954 and nished by 1955. Serra
Highlands, a piece of land north of Buri
Buri was begun and worked on in 1955
and 1956. Many other smaller pieces of
land in the west were developed in the
next few years but the most controver-
sial project was the Westborough hous-
ing development. The area had been
part of a large Christian dairy for many
years before Tom Callan acquired 1,000
acres west of Junipero Serra, east of
Skyline Boulevard, abutting Daly City
to the north and San Bruno to the south.
Water and sewer hookups proved to be
a dominant problem for the projected
development. Callan gured that annex-
ation to Daly City was a sure bet but he
ran into a tremendous amount of public
opposition. He nally was able to get
South San Francisco to annex the prop-
erty. This development defined the
western boundary of South San
Francisco.
Strangely, one parcel of land did not
get incorporated by South San
Francisco but is completely surrounded
by it. The Country Club Park #1 (west
of Walgreens on El Camino Real) has
remained unincorporated and the inde-
pendent-minded citizens of that area
intend to have it remain so.
In 1938, South San Francisco had
6,500 citizens living on 7.03 square
miles of incorporated land. By 1969, the
size of South San Francisco had
increased to include 10 square miles.
The citys population was 61,200 by
2005.

Fredricks appears in the Monday edition of

Chad Johnson arrested
for domestic violence
DAVIE, Fla. Dolphins receiver Chad Johnson was arrest-
ed Saturday on a domestic violence charge, accused of head-
butting his newlywed wife during an argument in front of their
home outside Miami.
Johnson and his wife, Evelyn Lozada, were at dinner and
she confronted him about a receipt she had found for a box of
condoms, said Davie police Capt. Dale Engle. The argument
got heated and continued on the drive home, he said.
When they arrived in their driveway in
Davie, the 34-year-old Johnson head-
butted Lozada, she told police. Lozada,
who is on the reality show, Basketball
Wives, was treated at a hospital for a cut
to her forehead, Engle said.
Johnson, who changed his last name
back to Johnson from Ochocinco after his
July 4 wedding to Lozada, was being held
Saturday night in Broward County Jail
where he will remain until he can appear
before a judge, which Engle says might not
be until Monday. He is charged with simple battery, domestic
violence, which is a misdemeanor.
Team ofcials were aware of the situation and are in the
process of gathering of relevant information, Dolphins
spokesman Harvey Greene said.
Johnsons agent, Drew Rosenhaus, declined to comment.
Johnson signed with the Dolphins in June, four days after he
was released by New England. A six-time Pro Bowl receiver
with Cincinnati, he caught only 15 passes in 15 games for the
Patriots last year after they acquired him in a trade for a pair of
draft picks
On Friday night in the Dolphins 20-7 loss to Tampa Bay in
the exhibition opener, Johnson let the only pass thrown to him
slip through his hands.
He was known as Ochocinco for the past four seasons. The
name was a playful reference to the No. 85 he wore on his jer-
sey.

video to explain needed repairs. That was the
focus until one month ago when the company
started taking a consumer focus.
Starting the website started with reaching
out to friends and family. Simmons quickly
realized the one thing missing was the option
for a person to say they dont know whats
wrong with the car.
There are more than 600 possible services
listed from which a person can choose.
However, Simmons said people either dont
know why the problem is happening or sim-
ply dont want to look through that many
options.
By making appointments with high-level
independent shops and dealerships available
online, Simmons hopes to introduce a
younger client base to the businesses.
Dealerships, for example, have a customer
who, on average, is at least 50 years old.
Moving forward, Simmons hopes to add
additional service to ClearMechanic like the
video and photo service to justify work. Also,
Simmons is interested in adding a feature that
would allow people to ask questions. The plan
is to start rolling out additional features in a
few months after building a customer base for
the appointment-making feature of the site,
Simmons said.

enhancing the musical experience.
Marsiske joined the group her
freshman year. As a result, she
knew teens could work with chil-
dren to teach them music if given
the opportunity. This summer, 19
of those Carlmont volunteers
decided to work together on a
recorder mentoring program twice
a week at the Ronald McDonald
House in Palo Alto.
Its been pretty great, Marsiske
said of the summer program she
helped start, which ended this past
week.
On Monday afternoon, the sec-
ond to last day of the program, a
group of children with varied expe-
rience gathered, eager to play.
Some were attending for the first
time while others had been practic-
ing for weeks even when not
attending the nearly hour-long
afternoon sessions.
New students were given the
option to pick a recorder in his or
her favorite color green, purple,
yellow or red. RhythmBand.com
donated recorders for the mentors
and gave a steep discount for the
others, explained Alan Sarver,
director of the Carlmont Music
Mentors and a Sequoia Union High
School District board trustee. Since
the families at the Ronald
McDonald House often changes,
the kids coming by arent always
the same. Once a child picked a
recorder, he or she could keep it
along with a book allowing them to
continue the lessons, Marsiske
said.
It doesnt take long for children
to start playing random notes here
and there. Children are broken into
groups. Those who are first timers
on one side. Those with a bit more
experience on another. Some work
in a group while others work one
on one with a teen volunteer. Songs
overlap, but quickly it becomes
clear who is working together as
their notes begin to match up as the
45-minute session goes on.
Like the children, 16-year-old
Kalila Kirk learned to play the
recorder this year. She previously
played, but it had been years. Kirk
smiled and pointed out 12-year-old
Adrienne, who has been practicing
all summer, was probably a better
player of the woodwind instru-
ment.
I was so excited, Adrienne said
of the option to learn the recorder
this summer.
She had used one before in fourth
grade. When she has the time, she
likes to practice the recorder out-
side of the summer sessions. She
hopes to one day play the violin,
like her brother.
For the teens, its the childrens
enthusiasm that really stands out.
My classmates in band arent as
excited to learn as the kids are,
said 15-year-old Monee McGrady.
I didnt know kids could learn so
quickly.
Fifteen-year-old David
Williamson agreed. Williamson
likes volunteering with students
who often dont appreciate the
music at the start. That way, he
said, he can watch as they begin to
see them enjoy creating music.
This year, the teens worked with
about 25 students throughout the
summer. Marsiske hopes to see the
program continue. If it does, the
students have enough recorders left
over to get a good start next year.

report to county supervisors Tuesday.
What was surprising is the number of
supervised individuals who refuse treatment
and services, she said.
It shows the greater push the staff is
going to have trying to engage them and
make sure they are taking the anger man-
agement classes they need or getting ready
for a job, Juarez-Diroll said.
A number of the programs and services
are coordinated through Service Connect,
which is run by the health and human serv-
ices agencies to provide the recently
released with safety nets like housing, food
stamps, substance abuse treatment and job
training.
The local implementation report offers a
snapshot of these supervisees and offenders
of non-violent and non-sexual offenses who
now serve their sentences in jail rather than
prison.
For example, of the total supervisees, 26
percent have new arrest warrants for failing
to appear at the Probation Department as
mandated, 19 percent have been arrested for
new offenses and 7 percent had their proba-
tion revoked. This population is over-
whelmingly men between the ages of 26
and 33 and 15 percent are homeless. Many
of the supervisees are from Redwood City
and East Palo Alto, with homeless being the
third largest category.
Since October, 170 inmates have been
sentenced locally which led to a 53 percent
increase in sentenced days at the already-
overcrowded county jail a reason why the
sheriff and jail planning team say a new
planned correctional facility in the county
needs to happen sooner rather than later.
This population is 82 percent male and 31
percent are between the ages of 30 and 39.
More than a fifth are voluntarily receiving
chemical dependency treatment and the
recidivism rate is 19 percent.
Juarez-Diroll said the real costs of
realignment will be penciled out this fiscal
year since it is the first full cycle and the
Sheriffs Office asked for funding which it
did not previously. The county received $4.8
million in fiscal year 2011-2012 and is
scheduled to receive $13.8 million for the
next two fiscal years.
The Probation Department and County
Managers Office are also looking beyond
the county structure, jointly offering $1 mil-
lion in realignment money to community-
based organizations for projects and pro-
grams targeting recidivism. To date, $1.7
million in applications have been received.
The point here is to be as innovative as
possible and generate some really good
ideas, Juarez-Diroll said.

ble for the district at this time.
As a result, there will not be a shuttle
offered for the upcoming school year.
The 17-day pilot May 18 through June
8 was also made possible through a part-
nership with the Sequoia Union High School
District, which loaned San Carlos a 72-pas-
senger bus and driver to the district. Students
were picked up from three locations
Heather School, Arundel School and
Devonshire Boulevard and Windsor Drive.
On average, the daily cost for the bus was
$405, according to an evaluation completed
after the pilot.
Of the 40 parents who gave feedback that
they felt their child was transported safely
and that the bus resulted in fewer car trips to
school. Students often didnt ride the bus
because he or she needed to be transported to
another activity, according to 55 percent of
responders. Over 20 percent said the bus
schedule didnt meet the family needs.
Parents were likely to use the service again
if more stops were added and if it was
offered for free, according to the respon-
dents.
Bus services have a long history in San
Carlos. The city previously tried to offer a
free shuttle service called SCOOT San
Carlos Optimal Operational Transit.
SCOOT provided door-to-door service. A
user called a city number, requested a ride
and got one without a set schedule or bus
stop. In 2002, the $1 million pilot program
was funded from a transportation sales tax,
gas tax and money typically used for street
repair. At its peak, ridership on the 20-per-
son shuttles included 19,387 trips. Primary
users include school children and the elderly
although more than 500 commuters also
benefit by taking routes to the Caltrain sta-

BAY CITY NEWS
Two suspected drunk drivers crashed into
each other in Menlo Park early Saturday
morning, according to police.
Ofcers responded to reports of a hit-and-
run crash near the intersection of Bayfront
Expressway and Chrysler Drive at about 2:30
a.m., according to Menlo Park police.
Witnesses reported that the driver of one of
two vehicles involved in the collision had ed
the area on foot, police said.
Ofcers quickly found the suspect in the
100 block of Constitution Drive. He was iden-
tied as Yungee Kim, 40, of Sunnyvale.
Kim was allegedly under the inuence of
alcohol, police said. He was arrested for DUI
with injury and hit-and-run with injury.
The driver of the other vehicle who was
identied as Zaquis
Coleman, 22, of East Palo Alto was also
found to be under the inuence of alcohol,
police said.
Coleman was arrested for DUI with injury.
A 24-year-old passenger in Colemans vehi-
cle was taken to Stanford Hospital with injuries
that were not considered life threatening.
The roadway was partially closed for about
seven hours while an investigation was con-
ducted.

NEW YORK Juliet Sandler dresses in
the latest $650 dresses and $400 shoes from
Parisian fashion house Lanvin. Juliet is 3.
Her mother, Dara Sandler, says she dresses
her daughter in the latest fashions because
Juliet is a reection of her even though her
daughter cant spell the names of the design-
ers, let alone pay for their clothes.
I dress my daughter exactly the way I dress
myself, says the 33-year-old Manhattan
mother, who spent $10,000 for her daughters
summer wardrobe. She plans to spend a few
thousand dollars more for fall.
Top fashion designers are pushing more
expensive duds for the increasingly lucrative
afuent toddler demographic. This fall, Oscar
de la Renta, Dolce & Gabbana, and Marni
launched collections for the pint-sized.
Luxury stores Nordstrom and Bergdorf
Goodman are expanding their childrens areas
to make room for the newcomers, many of
them with higher price tags. Late last year,
Gucci, which launched a childrens collection
two years ago, opened its rst childrens store
on Manhattans Fifth Avenue.
Some designer houses like Oscar de la
Renta and Marni say theyre careful to keep
the clothes appropriate for kids. But there are
plenty of miniature versions of the adult looks
that raise eyebrows because of their eye-
catching prices and sophisticated styles.
American households are expected to spend
an average of $688 outtting their children for
school, says the National Retail Federation,
and that includes supplies like pencils and
notebooks.
Thats most families. Some will spend $795
on Gucci backpacks or $1,090 on leopard
print puffy coats from Lanvin.
Sasha Charnin Morrison, fashion director at
Us Weekly, admits that some of the clothes are
outrageously prices. But, she says, things like
$200 Gucci sneakers make her kids happy.
Theyre a walking billboard of you.
Theyre a reection of who you are, so if you
are someone highly stylized, then you want to
make sure your kids are the best-dressed kids
out there, she says.
Critics say the trend promotes elitism.
This creates a class system of the haves
and have nots, says Dr. Alan Hilfer, director
of psychology at Maimonides Medical Center
in New York City. It creates a culture of
envy.
Only ve years ago, the high-end childrens
wear business was dominated by just a few
major designers like Ralph Lauren, Burberry
and Christian Dior. But the recent inux of
others is the latest sign that afuent shoppers
have gone back to splurging since the reces-
sion. And as the wealthy feel more comfort-
able about spending again, they increasingly
want their kids to reect themselves.
Its a mini-me phenomenon, says Robert
Burke, a New York-based fashion consultant.
It feels good. Its like one for me and one for
you, he says. The trend isnt limited to
Manhattan or Beverly Hills, but is occurring
in other big cities like Boston and Chicago, he
says. Sales of designer childrens wear are
also strong in resort areas where retirees who
tend to dote on their grandkids live, he says.
Luxury childrens sales account for just a
fraction, or just over 3 percent, of the $34 bil-
lion market, but its growing faster than the
rest of the childrens wear and clothing mar-
ket, according to NPD Group Inc., a research
rm. For the past 12 months ended in May,
childrens wear sales rose 4 percent, with the
upscale component up 7 percent, according to
NPDs most recent data. That compares with a
3 percent rise for the overall clothing market.
Designers, seeking more growth, are now
looking at childrens wear as another way to
deepen their relationship with their customers
as well as reach out to new ones.

MONDAY, AUGUST 13, 2012
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- If a friend helps you work
your way through a critical problem, be sure to
acknowledge the efforts that he or she put forth on
your behalf when others ask how you did it.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Avoid taking a side, no
matter how hard others try to make you do so. Once
the lines are drawn, it could be extremely diffcult to
get out of your position if and when you want to.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Be careful how you
respond to the barbs of your peers, so that you dont
end up being labeled a poor sport. Both your person-
ality and image are more vulnerable than usual.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- If you should encounter
a friend who holds opposing opinions equally as
strong as yours, avoid all volatile issues. Its possible
that you both have chips on your shoulders.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- It behooves you to
be a bit more security-conscious than usual regard-
ing your prized possessions. Leave nothing lying
around for others to take.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Its always wise to
analyze things before taking action, but you could
go overboard and cause yourself to be so picky and
indecisive that you get bogged down.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Wanting to be kind
and helpful to others is admirable, but you must be
careful not to let people who are capable of fending
for themselves burden you with their baggage.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Say no and mean it
if some of your peers attempt to entice you into doing
something that doesnt serve your best interests.
Maintain your high standards and morals.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Depression could
consume you if you permit yourself to believe that
everything works out well for everybody but you.
Believe me, you wouldnt want to change places with
others if you could.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Volatile subjects, such
as politics and religion, need to be avoided, because
they could easily get out of hand and lead to heated
exchanges. Stick to lighter subjects.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Run and hide if you see
a person coming toward you who is always borrow-
ing something from you but never returns anything.
Be smart and let history guide you.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Check out what
another knows before you allow him or her to make
an important decision for you. Dont just assume that
this individual has all the facts at hand.

There Is
New Hope!
A Health Center
Dedicated to
Severe Disc
Conditions
Youve seen the ads and heard the
radio commercials about my Non-
Surgical Spinal Decompression
treatment. At Crossroads Health
Center, Ive created an entire facility
dedicated to patients with severe disc
conditions that have not responded
to traditional care. My revolutionary,
Crossroads Method, provides a very
high success rate to patients with
serious back, neck, leg and arm pain
even when all else has failed. This

The Crossroads Method
This method which includes
computerized true disc
decompression is considered by
many doctors to be the most
advanced and successful non-
invasive treatment of serious back,
neck, leg or arm pain.
This procedure allows for a much
higher success rate by increasing
hydration of your discs, fexibility,
relaxation of muscles and ligaments
along with improving muscle and
core strength, balance and posture.
This results in a more effective and
lasting solution to your pain. There
are no side effects and no recovery
time is required.
This gentle and relaxing treatment
has proven to be effective even
when drugs, epidurals, traditional
chiropractic, physical therapy
and surgery have failed The
Crossroads Method has shown
dramatic results.
Patient Testimonials
During the 1 1/2 years of having
constant daily lower back pain and
spasms, I took anti-infammatory
and pain medication, but nothing
helped lessen the pain. When
an MRI showed that I had two
degenerative discs, I went through a
series of lumbar epidural injections
without success. The only thing
that made the pain and spasms go
away was Spinal Decompression
treatments at Crossroads Health
Center. Four years later and I am
still pain-free!
Lisa K.
My severe low back and sciatica
pain have been reduced signifcantly
since receiving spinal decompression
therapy at Crossroads Health Center.
I am now able to walk, golf, and do
things that I havent been able to do in
years! I would also like to say thanks
to Dr. Ferrigno and the offce staff as
they went above and beyond to make
sure my back problem was resolved. I
couldnt be happier!!

we can take them in our offce. Once
