SMALLER MEMORIALS ON SEPT. 11 ANNIVERSARY
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A Jordanian man working at United Parcel
Services San Bruno hub was discriminated
by coworkers as a terrorist who might blow
up the building and involuntarily transferred
after reporting the harassment that included
assaults with rocks and bottles, according to a
lawsuit led on his behalf.
The suit filed by the U.S. Equal
Employment Opportunity Commission on
Tuesday charges the global shipping company
with violating federal law by allowing dis-
crimination of Talal Alfaour and illegally
retaliated against him after he reported the
behavior to the company and his union.
Alfaour faced egregious and intolerable
harassment at UPS but remains employed
there in hopes of remedying the situation, said
William Tamayo, regional attorney for the
EEOC in San Francisco, in a prepared
announcement of the ling.
That remedy includes monetary damages
on behalf of Alfaour, training on anti-discrim-
ination laws and posting anti-discrimination
notices at the work site.
Alfaour, who is Muslim, joined UPS in the
South San Francisco center in 1995 as a
loader and revenue worker. Since at least
2004, Alfaour was physically and verbally
assaulted by coworkers and supervisors who
called him Dr. Bomb, Al-Qaida and
Taliban, according to the EOCC.
Alfaour reported that a supervisor told him
he could never work with hazardous materials
because you are a terrorist and you are going
to blow up the building. The suit also states
UPS suedfor discrimination

MICHELLE DURAND/DAILY JOURNAL
Opponents of a proposed new jail in San Mateo County expressed their concern over plans during the public comment
period of the Board of Supervisors meeting yesterday morning.
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Ongoing site preparation for a new
San Mateo County jail hasnt dampened
opponents who again gathered at the
Board of Supervisors meeting to
demand they focus on rehabilitation and
programming rather than a new incarcer-
ation facility.
The standing-room group, a mixture
of several organized groups and some
individuals who hoisted signs, said the
supervisors risk their political careers by
continuing forward with the jail and
demanded they rethink $44 million in
planning funds at the Sept. 25 county
budget hearing. By turns for nearly two
hours, the opponents also knocked the
jail plan as a way to incarcerate more
minorities who can be used as free labor,
generate federal money and avoid strate-
gizing ways to cut recidivism.
This is the agenda of the 1 percent,
said Sandy Sanders who said money
spent on jails is money that wont go for
more important needs, like schools.
The crowd has made similar
entreaties, often when the issue is on the
board agenda, and is undaunted by the
county not heeding its demands.
Were going to keep coming back
until you stop the jail, said Emily Harris
of Californians United for a Responsible
Budget.
Harris suggested the county follow the
example of Contra Costa County which
decided not to go forward with a jail.
The county signed off on a new incar-
ceration facility on the former Chemical

City delays vote
on school move
Residents argue merits of Crystal Springs
Uplands Schools plan to expand in Belmont
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The Belmont City Council listened for hours last night as to
why it should or should not allow a private school to expand
on land that is currently occupied by a vacant ofce building.
After hearing multiple reports related to trafc, noise, eco-
nomic benets and the environment related to Crystal Springs
Uplands Schools desire to build a new middle school on
Davis Drive, the council then heard from about 40 members of
the public on the issue. Many people expressed opposition to
the project based on a problem the city already has bad traf-
c conditions on Ralston Avenue.
The council listened so long, however, it decided not to
make a decision on the matter last night but voted instead to
table the public hearing until its Oct. 9 meeting, giving it
another month to weigh the merits of the plan.
Many residents said the school would make trafc on
Ralston even worse despite multiple trafc studies that indi-
cate otherwise.
The term eminent domain was even brought up as the school
has indicated it would be willing to build a right-hand turn lane

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A 92-year-old Washington state woman is
suing Burlingame-based Splendid Products
which distributed salmonella-contaminated
mangoes that she claims left her hospitalized
for weeks.
The suit on behalf of Dorothy Pearce, of
Stanwood, Wash., holds Splendid liable for
distributing Daniella mangoes identied by
the Center for Disease Control and Prevention
as the source of a nationwide outbreak last
month.
According to the personal injury suit led in
western district court, Pearce ate a Daniella
mango and fell ill Aug. 20. For two days, her
symptoms included nausea, vomiting, diar-
rhea and severe stomach cramping that led to
her hospitalization. Lab tests conrmed sal-
monella Braenderup and, as of Sept. 5, Pearce
was still hospitalized, according to her
attorney William D. Marler.
The suit claims Pears
suffered severe physi-
cal and emotional
injuries and sub-
stantial econom-
ic loss.
S p l e n d i d
Products did
not respond to
an inquiry for
comment.
Marler said
to date the
contamination
has sickened
204 people in the
United States and 21
in Canada.
The up to 1 million recalled man-
goes were packed in Mexico
and distributed by
Splendid Products
between July 12
and Aug. 29.
The Mexican
manufacturer and
producer of the
mangoes has yet
to be identied,
according to the
suit.

SAN FRANCISCO A federal
appeals court blocked
implementation of San
Franciscos cellphone
radiation warning law
pending the outcome of an
industry challenge.
The ordinance,
believed to be the rst of
its kind in the nation,
requires cellphone dealers
to tell customers the devices
may expose them to cancer-
causing radiation levels.
It was scheduled to take
effect last October but it has
been on hold because of court challenges.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on
Monday barred enforcement while
the case continues. In its brief,
unpublished opinion, the court
reversed a trial court judge who
said the city could
compel cellphone
companies to dis-
tribute a fact
sheet because
its Board of
Supervisors concluded
there is debate in the scien-
tic community about the
health effects of cell-
phones.
The ordinance requires retailers to give cell-
phone buyers a fact sheet saying the World
Health Organization classifies cellphone
radio-frequency emissions as possible car-
cinogens.
The cellphone industrys lobbying group
led a lawsuit in 2010 seeking to invalidate
the citys ordinance. The industry claims that
the citys requirements go beyond disclosures
that are purely factual and uncontroversial
and stray into disputed views of cellphones.
The disclosures would advise consumers on
what to do if they want to reduce cellphone
emissions.
This language could prove to be interpret-
ed by consumers as expressing San
Franciscos opinion that using cellphones is
dangerous, the three judges concluded in the
unsigned ruling.

Gas prices stabilizing after record highs
Motorists in Northern California are seeing a slowdown in
the rise in gas prices after a month of volatility at the pump,
according to AAA Northern California, which tracks gas
prices as a service to consumers.
In San Mateo, AAA reports the average price for a gallon of
gas is up ve cents to $4.24. Californias average for a gallon
of regular, unleaded gasoline is $4.17, up seven cents since last
months AAA report Aug. 14. Thats 22 cents more than
Californias average price on this date last year. Among all 50
states, California has the second highest state average price for
regular, unleaded gasoline. Hawaii is rst at $4.37, according
to AAA.
Northern California gas prices are now averaging $4.18, up
eight cents from last month. In the San Francisco Bay Area,
motorists can expect to pay an average price of $4.25, which
is a seven-cent increase. The national average price of $3.84 is
up by 14 cents, which is 18 cents more than the national price
on this date last year, when it was $3.66, according to AAA.
Conicting economic factors last week resulted in little
change in oil prices. Continued bearish economic news, both
domestically and internationally, pressured prices lower, while
tight supplies and rumors of a potential third round of quanti-
tative easing by the Federal Reserve, designed to stimulate the
U.S. economy, pressured prices higher, according to AAA.
Man pleads not guilty to touching child in store
A man charged with touching the buttocks of a 6-year-old

the store after the incident and was identi-
ed by the child. The girls father struck
Albrecht and held him until police arrived.
Police reported Albrecht was wearing a

up a life-sized doll of a female child.
Albrecht remains in custody in lieu of $100,000 bail.

LOS ANGELES Californias com-
munity colleges are reorienting their regis-
tration system to give priority to students
who are focused on earning a degree or
transferring to a four-year college.
The governing board of the 112-college
system on Monday voted in favor of the
plan, which will go into effect in 2014.
Under the system, students in good aca-
demic standing who have not exceeded
100 units will be given priority to register
for classes.
The policy comes as colleges are cut-
ting class offerings due to budget reduc-
tions and students are nding it hard to get
courses they need to complete their asso-
ciates degrees and either start their
careers to transfer to earn a bachelors
degree.
It marks a shift in the orientation of
community colleges, which have histori-
cally been places where failing students
could repeat courses or community resi-
dents could easily take courses for person-
al enrichment.

BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE
Gov. Jerry Brown was at Oracle
Headquarters in Redwood Shores
Tuesday morning to sign legislation cre-
ating a new department that aims to
strengthen economic ties with foreign
trading partners.
Assembly Bill 2012 designates the
Governors Office of Business and
Economic Development or GO-Biz
as a central ofce of contact for eco-
nomic development between businesses
in California and other countries, such as
China, Mexico and South Korea.
The bill paves the way for California
to ofcially welcome visiting delega-
tions and re-open the states foreign
trade ofces in key trading countries that
had to be closed in 2003 due to budget
cutbacks.
Bill Wunderman,
CEO of the business
advocate group Bay
Area Council, said at
Tuesday mornings
signing ceremony
that the new GO-Biz
office will partner
with private
California firms
wishing to bolster
relations with foreign trading partners,
and help a variety of businesses in the
state form important economic ties with
Pacic Rim nations.
This bill shows that California is
open for business, Wunderman said.
Wunderman said that California
has the ninth largest economy in the
world, and added that strengthening
business ties with countries enjoying
strong positive growth like China
would help stimulate the states eco-
nomic growth as well.
Chinas economy is growing and
growing, Wunderman said. It would be
so wonderful to grow together.
Assembly Speaker John Perez one
of AB 2012s sponsors said that the
newly established GO-Biz ofce will
offer a one-stop shop for California
businesses wanting to foster relation-
ships with overseas entities.
This is progress, this is economic
development, Perez said. This is what
the business community in California
has been waiting to enjoy.
Gov. Brown said that California is
embedded in the world economy, and
that the bold move to re-open foreign
trade ofces and encourage international
trade and investment will ultimately help
California move from economic recov-
ery to economic prosperity.
Were making progress, folks. Were
making progress, Brown said.

The Redwood City Council
approved a controversial plan for a
nine-home subdivision on Finger
Avenue after moving the houses on
three parcels away from the street
and the top of the creek bank, as rec-
ommended by city staff. The propos-
al calls for demolishing six existing homes at 50, 80 and 88
Finger Ave. and replacing them with nine houses and a U-
shaped private road on the 1.69-acre site. The developer and
opposing residents are also working on an acquisition deal
for some of the property.
The Foster City Council voted 4-1 Monday night to
approve the sale of an 11-acre city-owned property to the
North Peninsula Jewish Campus for $20 million. The land
is adjacent to City Hall. Mayor Art Kiesel voted against the
land sale.

WASHINGTON Both parties are
using a brief pre-election session of
Congress to make campaign appeals to
returning veterans.
Senate Democrats are pushing
President Barack Obamas proposed $1
billion Veterans Jobs Corps to relieve
high unemployment among servicemen
and women returning from Iraq and
Afghanistan. House Republicans are
pushing a bill making it a crime to ben-
efit from lying about military services
or awards.
Lawmakers in both parties agreed
this week to come up with more money
to help the Veterans Administration
reduce a disability claims backlog.
Obama proposed a job corps for vet-
erans last February that would put
place them in jobs restoring public
lands and beefing up local police and
fire departments. It cleared a prelimi-
nary test vote Tuesday, as was expect-
ed, but aides said progress could easily
unravel as lawmakers negotiate what
amendments and how many of them
will be allowed.
Although the legislation is not
expected to become law this session, it
gives lawmakers a chance to display
their support for the nations 21 mil-
lion-plus veterans before Congress
adjourns for the campaign season.
The unemployment rate for veterans
of Iraq and Afghanistan has been trend-
ing lower in recent months, but hit a
bump last month. Joblessness among
them was nearly 11 percent in August
compared, compared with an 8.1 per-
cent jobless rate nationwide.
Sen. Bill Nelson of Florida said the
problem is likely to grow as troops are
withdrawn from Afghanistan.
For the troops, when they come
home, the fight is not over. Theres
another fight when they get back home
to America, said Nelson, the bills
lead sponsor who is in a tough re-elec-
tion contest. We need to give them as
many opportunities as possible to suc-
ceed when they get back home here in
America.
Ruth Lise Locatelli (Harmegnies)
Ruth Lise Locatelli (Harmegnies) died
Sept. 9, 2012 after a short battle with
leukemia.
Born in 1936 in Canada, Ruth was the
oldest of ve children. She received her
nursing degree before marrying her hus-
band of 53 years, Tarcisio, and relocat-
ing to California in 1959. She was a reg-
istered nurse and provided loving care to
obstetrical patients at Sequoia Hospital
in Redwood City and Mercy San Juan in
Carmichael.
Ruth raised two daughters (Julia
Locatelli and Annalise Locatelli
OConnor), and
loved her three
grandchildren (Jason
Varni, Marissa Varni
and Nicholas
OConnor).
Ruth and her hus-
band moved to Grass
Valley in 1983. She
volunteered for the
Interfaith Food Ministry, Animal Save
Thrift Store and Sierra Nevada
Memorial Foundation. Ruth loved trav-
eling, cooking, shopping, attending
retired nurses luncheons and gardening,
especially multiplying geraniums.
She is survived by her husband, two
daughters, son-in-law (Brian
OConnor), three grandchildren, two
brothers and one sister.
In lieu of owers, memorial gifts may
be made to the Interfaith Food Ministry,
Animal Save or the Sierra Nevada
Memorial Hospital Foundation.
A memorial service will be conducted
noon Sunday, Sept. 16 at the Biblical
Gardens on Auburn Road in Grass
Valley followed by a light lunch.

First group of delayed young deportees approved
WASHINGTON Just three week after the Obama admin-
istration started accepting applications from young illegal immi-
grants seeking to avoid deportation and get a work permit, the
government already has approved some of the roughly 72,000
applications the government has received.
The Homeland Security Department said Tuesday that a small
group of applications has been approved and those immigrants
are being notied this week about the decision. The department
did not say how many applications had been approved.
The rst wave of approvals comes months head of DHS own
internal estimates of how long the application process for the
administrations Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals pro-
gram could take and less than 60 days before the Nov. 6 elec-
tions. According to an internal DHS document obtained by the
Associated Press, the departments Citizenship and Immigration
Services had estimated that each application could take several
months to be completed.
Following a thorough, individualized case review, USCIS
has now begun notifying individuals of the determination on
their deferral requests, DHS spokesman Peter Boogaard said in
a statement.

NEW YORK After weeks of
speculation, anticipation and a dose
of hype, Apple is widely expected to
announce a new smartphone at an
event in San Francisco on
Wednesday.
Apple isnt saying anything about
the topic of the event, but the email
invitation it sent to reporters con-
tains a shadow in the shape of a 5
a nod to the iPhone 5. It is being
held in San Francisco at Yerba
Buena Center for the Arts Theater,
where Apple has held many product
launches.
The new model is expected to
work with fourth-generation, or 4G,
cellular networks. That capability is
something Samsungs Galaxy S III
and many other iPhone rivals
already have. A bigger iPhone
screen is also possible. The new
model will likely go on sale in a
week or two.
Apple Inc. also plans to update its
phone software this fall and will
ditch Google Inc.s mapping service
for its own, as a rivalry between the
two companies intensies.
In a related development, Google
said Tuesday that it is releasing a
new YouTube app for the iPhone
and the iPad. The changes come
amid the expiration of a ve-year
licensing agreement that had estab-
lished YouTube as one of the built-in
applications in Apples mobile
devices.
Still unknown is whether Apple
will announce a smaller version of
its iPad on Wednesday.
Apple dominates the market for
tablet computers, shipping seven out
of every 10 tablets worldwide in the
second quarter, according to
research rm IHS iSuppli. Rivals
have been trying to compete by pro-
ducing smaller, cheaper models
such as Amazons Kindle Fire. A
mini iPad would challenge those
relative newcomers.
Sales of Apples iPhones are still
strong, though the company lost the
lead in smartphones to Samsung this
year. Samsung Electronics Co. ben-
eted from having its Galaxy S III
out in the U.S. in June, while Apple
was still selling an iPhone model it
released last October. A new iPhone
will allow Apple to recapture the
attention and the revenue.

WASHINGTON It sounds like
good news: Annual premiums for
job-based family health plans went
up only 4 percent this year.
But hang on to your wallets.
Premiums averaged $15,745, with
employees paying more than $4,300
of that, a glaring reminder that the
nations problem of unaffordable
medical care is anything but solved.
The annual employer survey
released Tuesday by two major
research groups also highlighted
another disturbing trend: employees
at companies with many low-wage
workers pay more money for
skimpier insurance than what their
counterparts at upscale rms get.
Overall, its historically a very
moderate increase in premiums,
said Drew Altman, president of the
Kaiser Family Foundation, which
conducted the survey with the
Health Research & Educational
Trust.
He quickly added: But even a
moderate increase feels really big to
workers when their wages are at or
falling. The rise in premiums easily
outpaced workers raises and ina-
tion.
Following a 9-percent hike in pre-
miums last year, the 2012 increase
quickly became fodder for the polit-
ical debate. Republicans said
President Barack Obamas promises
to control health care costs ring hol-
low in light of the ndings.
But the most signicant cost-con-
trol measures in Obamas law have
yet to take effect, and the presidents
big push to cover the uninsured
doesnt start until 2014. Those
measures include a new tax on the
most expensive insurance plans and
a powerful board to keep Medicare
spending manageable.
Trying to head off critics, the
administration issued a report esti-
mating that consumers have saved
$2 billion as a result of the health
care law. Thats due to a combina-
tion of insurance rebates for
employers and individual policy
holders, as well as closer state over-
sight of proposed rate increases,
facilitated by Obamas law.
Still, the Kaiser survey shows pre-
miums for job-based family cover-
age rose by nearly $2,400 since
2009 when Obama took ofce, with
a corresponding increase of nearly
$800 for employee-only coverage.
We arent happy to see any
increase in health insurance premi-
ums, said Gary Cohen, head of the
administrations Center for
Consumer Information and
Insurance Oversight, adding that
ofcials are heartened it was only
a modest rise this year and look for-
ward to slowing costs as more pro-
visions of the health care law take
effect.
Most independent experts say the
fact that premiums keep rising faster
than overall ination reects under-
lying problems with the health care
system that have frustrated policy-
makers of both parties for years, as
well as corporate benet managers.

LAHORE, Pakistan Factory
fires in two of Pakistans major
cities killed 45 people and injured
dozens more on Tuesday, including
some who had to break through
barred windows and leap to the
ground to escape the ames, said
ofcials and survivors.
Workers recounted how their col-
leagues were trapped behind
blocked exits, and reghters said
that one reason why the blazes were
so deadly is that the buildings a
shoe factory in the eastern city of
Lahore and a garment factory in the
southern port of Karachi lacked
clear escape routes.
Such safety issues are common
through Pakistan, where buildings
also lack emergency equipment like
alarms and sprinklers and municipal
rules are rarely enforced.
The re that swept through the
four-story shoe factory in Lahore
killed 25 people, some from burns
and some from suffocation, said
senior police ofcer Multan Khan.
The factory was illegally set up in a
residential part of the city.
It broke out when people in the
building were trying to start their
generator after the electricity went
out. Sparks from the generator made
contact with chemicals used to
make the shoes, igniting the blaze.
Pakistan faces widespread black-
outs, and many people use genera-
tors to provide electricity for their
houses or to run businesses.

WASHINGTON The massive
teachers strike in Chicago offers a
high-profile test for the nations
teachers unions, which have seen
their political inuence threatened as
a growing reform movement seeks
to improve ailing public schools.
The reforms include expanding
charter schools, getting private com-
panies involved with failing schools
and linking teacher evaluations to
student test scores.
Union leaders are taking a major
stand on teacher evaluations, one of
the key issues in the Chicago dis-
pute. If they lose there, it could have
ripple effects around the country.
The American Federation of
Teachers and the National Education
Association the nations two
largest teachers unions have
been playing defense in jurisdictions
around the country as Republicans
and Democrats alike seek greater
concessions in a bid to improve ail-
ing public schools.
After decades of growth in mem-
bership and inuence, the unions
now are in a weaker position, said
Rick Hess of the American
Enterprise Institute, a nonpartisan
think tank.
They are playing on more hostile
terrain and they are facing opponents
the likes of which they have not had
to face before, Hess said.

President Obama
Editor,
I particularly appreciated the analogy
of the neighbor buying ve cars (in
response to Randy Swans letter Tax the
rich in the Sept. 11 edition of the Daily
Journal). I think thats perfect. He has a
job where he can afford ve new cars
and the security in that job to know that
hes going to be there a while longer.
The auto industry is alive, well and pro-
ducing vehicles. The economy has
turned the corner and we are on the road
to full recovery. Thank you, President
Obama! You are obviously on the right
track!

Earth to women,
are you out there?
Editor,
Watching woman after woman come
forward at the Democratic National
Convention whining about a war on
women in this country was a complete
insult to many men in America. This rant
culminated with a completely self-
absorbed woman who took a swing at
imaginary evil men keeping her from
abortion, contraceptives and health care.
Sandra Fluke and many women like her
really need to get over themselves.
Ladies, the majority of men dont care
two cents about your bodies or what you
do to them and we are denitely not
at war with them.
As if this is the main issue that needs
our immediate attention in this country
right now. Really? Nobody is threatening
your need to have unlimited access to
abortions and contraceptives. What we
do ask is that we not have to pay for
your unlimited access to abortions and
contraceptives. Cause you see, some of
us dont believe the same things you
believe and dont really want our tax
money being spent on your choices. So,
here is the bottom line. We wont get in
the middle of your business concerning
abortion, contraceptives and your body if
you agree not to get in the middle of our
wallets and make us pay for it. Deal?

Support for Israel
Editor,
Is it just me or was the kerfufe at the
Democratic Convention on Jerusalem as
Israels capital much ado about nothing?
I support Israels declarations supporting
Jerusalem as its capital. I favor support-
ive language in both party platforms.
What bothers me is pandering attempts
by some in the GOP to turn support for
Israel, an issue with overwhelming
bipartisan support, into some sort of lit-
mus test or wedge issue. Its just silly.
Despite empty promises in every presi-
dential administration since 1967, has
the U.S. Embassy moved from Tel Aviv
to Jerusalem? Has international support
for Israel increased? Id almost say quite
the opposite.
Shame on those who try to make polit-
ical hay by attempting to divide us. To
my friends in the GOP, stop trying to
turn support for Israel into a divisive
issue. It isnt. American leaders in both
parties overwhelmingly support Israel
where it counts as do the vast majority of
American voters. There are real dangers
facing our community from those who
delegitimize Israel at every turn, support
terrorists who threaten Israelis and Jews
the world over, and those who advocate
openly for Israels destruction.

T
he San Mateo County Harbor
District may not make deci-
sions that have a direct impact
on everyone in the countys day-to-day
lives, but it is funded by our tax dollars
and is the steward of two well-estab-
lished and critical gateways to our com-
munity. The rst gateway is at Pillar
Point Harbor on the coast the only
place for most commercial, recreational
and charter shermen to launch their
vessels to collect the oceans bounty.
That enterprise is constantly facing
challenges and needs thoughtful assis-
tance by those in charge of the harbor.
The second gateway is the Oyster Point
Marina/Park with ferry service to and
from the East Bay. It is providing an
alternative transit opportunity for those
who live and work in South San
Francisco, though it is mainly used as a
way for workers who live in the East
Bay to get to the biotech hub of South
San Francisco. There is an opportunity
for progressive thought in getting more
transit alternatives, whether it be addi-
tional ferry stops or nding new and
sustainable ways to get workers to their
places of work once they arrive at the
Bay shore.
Fortunately for voters in San Mateo
County, there are six people running for
three seats on the Harbor Districts
Board of Commissioners and an oppor-
tunity for new ideas.
Of the six, we recommend Sabrina
Brennan, William Holsinger and Pietro
Parravano. All three bring a variety of
experience and ideas to the table. For
Brennan, maintaining water quality of
both locations is key to its success and
development at either site should be
embarked upon with the environment
and community access at the forefront.
Brennan is quick with new ideas, and
suggested a bike rental station at Pillar
Point as a way to allow visitors quick
access to more of what the coast has to
offer while also providing revenue for
the district. Her scal conservatism is
refreshing from someone so focused on
environmental stewardship. Holsinger
has lled the seat of former commis-
sioner Sally Campbell since after her
death earlier this year. As a former can-
didate for a seat several years ago,
Holsinger has been a quick study and,
as an attorney, has a keen eye when it
comes to legal language. Parravano
understands the needs of the shermen
and has spent years working toward
nding ways to make it a viable career.
His idea of creating a curriculum at
local community colleges for the sh-
ing industry is a solid step in formaliz-
ing the ins and outs of the industry
knowledge whether it be navigation,
boat maintenance or marketing. That
last component is key since many sh-
ermen have signicant work to do once
their boats are tied up after the days
catch. By providing new avenues of
selling their catch, they can maintain an
industry that has as many ebbs and
ows as the ocean itself. Brennan, too,
would like to extend the reach of the
seafood caught off the coast and would
like to work with local companies with
in-house chefs or restaurants with chefs
who understand the importance of local
and sustainable seafood. Parravano also
has a track record of getting shermen
to branch out when shing is not
allowed in partnering with research
groups to the benet of both.
The shing industry is in constant
change, and the environment of Pillar
Point Harbor is key to its welfare.
Members of the Board of
Commissioners serve in a support role
for the industry while taking care of the
natural resource of the harbor that
houses the industry. Key too is the
Oyster Point Marina/Park and its capa-
bility to provide new ways for people to
enter our county for work or for pleas-
ure. Brennan, Holsinger and Parravano
would provide the best balance of expe-
rience, points of view and forward-
thinking for both, and for all of us.

Going organic?
E
ven if we discount the research intuitively, foods
grown with chemicals that are literally poisons
cant be as safe and wholesome as foods grown
without them. Jonathan Wright, M.D. and Linda Larson,
Eating Clean for Dummies.
A new study related to organic foods came out over the
Labor Day weekend. The purported purpose of the research,
under the direction of Dr. Dena Bravada, a senior research
afliate at Stanford University, was to determine if organic
food products are more nutri-
tious than regular foods.
According to Dr. Bravada and
associates, fruit and vegetables
labeled organic were, on aver-
age, no more nutritious than
their conventional counterparts,
which tend to be far less
expensive.
I doubt there are many peo-
ple who prefer organic foods
who are as concerned about
their nutritional content as they
are about the differences in
pesticide, hormones and addi-
tives and the differences in
effects on human health and
the environment. And yet, Michael Pollan wrote in In
Defense of Food: Recently a handful of well-controlled
comparisons of crops grown organically and conventionally
have found appreciably higher levels of anti-oxidants,
avonoids, vitamins and other nutrients in several of the
organic crops.
Dr. Bravada states that the aim of the research was to pro-
vide an objective view of the current science of organic foods
so people can make more informed choices. She says that the
study was not inuenced by anyone with a vested interest in
the results. Though the researchers claim they used no out-
side nancing and wanted us to have no perception of bias,
it is just the kind of study onto which the food industry would
latch. And one statement that makes one wonder is: A lush
peach grown with the use of pesticides could easily contain
more vitamins than an unripe organic one. Really?
The above study has provided an opportunity for me, with
the help of some of my favorite nutritionally focused authors,
to describe some of the more important reasons to go organic.
Ill start with Gary Hirshberg who wrote in Food Inc.
Organic Healthy Food and So Much More; I see organ-
ic as part of a philosophy of wholeness, the science of integra-
tion, the need to keep nature humming as the interdependent
web of life. Organic is also a pragmatic state of mind, offering
real antidotes to societys assorted ills and errors. It backs a
sensible farm policy that protects not only family farmers, but
also the health of all Americans. When you eat better, you are
better. In fact, an organic food system could bring down
health-care costs by eliminating toxic lifestyles and the unnec-
essary disease and illness they cause.
Add Marion Nestle, who wrote, Eating Made Simple, also
from Food, Inc.: The USDA forbids producers of Certied
Organic fruit and vegetables from using synthetic pesticides,
herbicides, fertilizers, genetically modied seeds, irradiation
or fertilizer derived from sewage sludge ... Although the
USDA is responsible for organics, its principle mandate is to
promote conventional agriculture, which explains why the
department asserts that it makes no claims that organic food is
safer or more nutritious than conventionally produced food.
Organic food differs from conventionally grown food in the
way it is grown, handled and processed. ... Organics may be
somewhat healthier to eat, but they are far less likely to dam-
age the environment, and that is reason enough to choose
them at the supermarket.
Dr. Bravada concluded: People purchased organic food for
a number of reasons. Concerns about the effects of pesticides
on young children, the environmental impact of large-scale
conventional farming and the potential public health threat if
antibiotic resistant bacterial genes jumped to human
pathogens.
I hope Dr. Bravada will soon conduct a study on the report-
ed effects of exposure to pesticides on pregnant women and
young children. As reported in The San Mateo County
Times, three studies published last year followed pregnant
women exposed to higher amounts of pesticides known as
organo-phosphates, then followed the children for years and
found that in elementary school their children had, on average,
IQs several points lower than those of their peers.
But the debate over whether organic foods are more nutri-
tious than conventionally grown crops seems almost irrelevant
when we consider the big picture as described by Marion
Nestle. Organic methods of agriculture can help stabilize
food prices and reduce our dependence on foreign oil. They
can lead to true national security, which, in time, fosters plan-
etary security. By using less fossil fuel and chemicals, and by
trapping and building carbon in the soil instead of in the
atmosphere, organic farming is a crucial WME (weapon of
mass enlightenment) in humanitys now or near ght against
the air pollution that causes global warming In short, there
is nothing alternative about organic.

NEW YORK Investors spent
Tuesday preparing for two events sure to
move markets this week: a Federal
Reserve meeting and a court decision on
whether Germany can help support its
struggling neighbors. And if the stock
markets gains Tuesday are any sign,
they expect both events to turn out well.
The Dow Jones industrial average rose
69.07 points to close at 13,323.36. The
average of 30 large company stocks has
already gained 1.8 percent to start
September, a month which is usually
dismal for stocks.
Bank of America led the 30 stocks in
the Dow, rising 5 percent, or 45 cents, to
$9.03.
Federal Reserve ofcials will gather
for a two-day meeting on Wednesday.
Many expect the Fed will announce a
new effort to revive the sluggish econo-
my Thursday afternoon.
On the same day the Fed starts its
meeting, Germanys high court is
expected to rule on whether the country
can participate in a European bailout
fund. The court rejected a last-minute
appeal to delay the decision on Tuesday.
Its going to get interesting this
week, said Randy Frederick, managing
director of active trading and derivatives
at the brokerage Charles Schwab.
Frederick expects the Fed will make
some sort of move, especially after the
government reported last Friday that
employers added fewer than 100,000
jobs in August.
Prior to the employment report peo-
ple werent as sure, Frederick said. I
am denitely on the majority side here.
Theres some sort of easing coming.
In other trading, the Standard & Poors
500 index rose 4.48 points to 1,433.56.
The Nasdaq composite increased 0.51 of
a point to 3,104.53.
The assumption that the Fed will
announce new stimulus measures is so
widespread that some worry the market
could take a plunge if the Fed fails to
deliver.
Ron Florance, managing director of
investment strategy at Wells Fargo
Private Bank in Scottsdale, Ariz., said
hes always wary when stocks rise on
nothing more than expectations.
These are the things that make you
nervous, when markets are going strong
in anticipation of news, Florance said.

SAN FRANCISCO Facebook CEO
Mark Zuckerberg, acknowledging con-
cerns about his companys stock perform-
ance, said Tuesday that Facebook has sur-
vived troubles before.
He spoke to a standing-room-only
audience at a tech conference in San
Francisco in his rst interview since the
companys rocky initial public offering in
May. Facebook Inc.s stock has lost half
its value since the IPO.
Zuckerberg said the drop has obvious-
ly been disappointing, but he said its a
great time to double down on the com-
panys future.
Facebook has not
been an uncontrover-
sial company,
Zuckerberg said. Its
not like this is the rst
up and down we have
ever had.
Among other
things, Facebook Inc.
has repeatedly faced
criticism and user
rebellion over its
policies and practices affecting data pri-
vacy.
Wearing a gray T-shirt, jeans and
sneakers, Zuckerberg appeared Tuesday
in a half-hour reside chat at the San
Francisco Disrupt conference organized
by technology blog TechCrunch.
After he began speaking, Facebooks
stock increased 74 cents, 3.8 percent,
$20.17 after-hours trading. Thats on top
of a 3.3 percent gain during the regular
session.
We have a pretty good compass,
Zuckerberg said. I always like to think
that when folks are being too nice, we
arent as good as they say they are. And
when the media is being too critical, we
are not as bad as they say we are.
Investors have been concerned about
Facebooks ability to keep growing rev-
enue, especially as more people use it
from mobile devices, where this is less
room to how ads.

KB Home acquires
330 acres for home development
AUSTIN, Texas KB Home said Tuesday that it bought
Mason Ranch, a 330-acre piece of land near Austin, Texas,
and hopes to develop it into a planned community with 1,019
home sites. Financial terms were not disclosed.
KB Home said the community will include energy efcient
homes that are built to order and are located on roads that wind
through a family friendly neighborhood. The area includes
nationally recognized schools, a variety of retail establish-
ments and nearby access to interstate highways and toll roads,
the company said.
Land development is scheduled to begin in early 2013, with
model homes opening later in the year.
YouTube offers new iPhone app
SAN FRANCISCO YouTube is being reprogrammed for
the iPhone and iPad amid the latest fallout from the growing
hostility between Google and Apple.
The changes are being made because Google Inc. and Apple
Inc. didnt renew a ve-year licensing agreement that estab-
lished YouTubes video service as one of the built-in applica-
tions in the operating system that runs the iPhone and iPad.
YouTube is being bumped from the menu of pre-installed
apps on the next version of Apples mobile operating system,
or iOS, which could be released as early as Wednesday when
the latest iPhone is expected to be unveiled.
AMD invests in cloud gaming company CiiNow
SUNNYVALE Chip maker Advanced Micro Devices
Inc. said Tuesday that it has invested in CiiNow, a provider of
cloud-based video game technology.
AMD did not say how much it invested and a representative
could not immediately be reached for comment.
Cloud-based gaming lets people stream video games over
the Internet. One of the most prominent startups in this area,
OnLive, recently went through a complex bankruptcy alterna-
tive, reorganizing its business amid nancial difculties so it
could keep operating.

The Serra water polo team warmed up for
its West Catholic Athletic League opener
Wednesday by hosting Carlmont Tuesday
afternoon.
If nothing else, the Padres should be full of
condence heading into Wednesdays match
against St. Francis following a 14-2 win over
the outgunned Scots. The Padres scored seven
goals on nine shots in the opening period and
cruised to the victory.
Hole set Anthony Buljan scored six times
for Serra, while Brandon Yes added three, all
in the opening minutes of the game. Matt
Blais added a pair, while Dominic Mirt and
Joe Kmak each scored once.
Carlmonts Nathan Callahan scored both his
teams goals one in the second period and
one in the fourth. Elias Sebti assisted on
Callahans rst goal.
With such a lopsided win, it begs the ques-
tion: why schedule an obviously overmatched
team? For Serra coach Bob Greene, the
answer is two-fold: one, to see what kind of
talent he has on his bench and two, to hope-
fully make teams like Carlmont better for hav-
ing played the Padres.
When youre early in the season, its very
hard to truly evaluate what your bench can
do, Greene said. Also, Im a San Mateo guy.
I want Carlmont, Aragon, Burlingame,
Hillsdale (and the like), I want all those guys
to have good polo (programs). If they can
learn some things from playing us, maybe
they can take that [into Peninsula Athletic
League play].
As far as nding out how good his team can
be, Greene said a couple of players have been
a revelation. Blais has scored 10 goals already
this preseason.
He was low on my bench, but he has a nice
shot, Greene said.
The other surprise has been Daniel
Campoverde. Greene said he is the smallest
member or the team, but has played himself
into the Padres rotation with his preseason
performance. Greene said he wasnt even sure
Campoverde would stay with the varsity team.
I didnt know if he could contribute at a
high level, Greene said. Now, hes playing
about a quarter of a game.
Green said its imperative the Padres have a

The Sacred Heart Prep girls volleyball
team, which was the Central Coast Section
Division IV runnerup last year and advanced
to the Northern California seminals, is poised
for another strong year in 2012.
The Gators improved to 8-1 on the young
season, sweeping past host San Mateo 25-15,
25-22, 25-17 Tuesday evening in San Mateo.
With eight seniors, a number of which were
part of the Gators Nor Cal championship team
in 2010, this could be their last run at great-
ness with this core of players. Hoping to make
the most of it is senior Sonia Abuel-Saud, who
missed most of last season after tearing both
the anterior cruciate and medial collateral lig-
aments in her knee in the nal game before the
start West Bay Athletic League play last sea-
son.
How important is Abuel-Saud?
We win (CCS with her). Period, said
Sacred Heart Prep coach Damien Hardy. The
kid is worth eight points a set. Were happy
to have her back.
Abuel-Saud said it was hard watching the
Gators make their run through league play and
into the playoffs. But she was determined to
get back on the court as soon as she could. She
had surgery at the end of September and was
back on the oor with her club team at the end
of December.
It was really tough. I was really excited for
my junior year, Abuel-Saud said. I had an
amazing surgeon. He was so awesome with
his positivity.
Abuel-Saud was determined not to have the
knee injury dene her. She wore a brace for a
few weeks, but got rid of it as soon as she felt
comfortable. Not only did she want to use it
as a mental brace, she wanted to affect the
psyche of opponents as well. She did not want

If the week before the Peninsula Athletic
League is meant to be a dress rehearsal of
sorts, then it would appear that the Burlingame
volleyball team is ready for the show to begin.
The Panthers were methodical Tuesday
evening, defeating Woodside High School 25-
19, 25-19, 25-17 in preparation for the start of
the PAL Bay Division season Sept. 18.
Were a pretty young team, said senior
outside hitter Morgan McKeever, who had 12
kills for the match. Were a little stronger
offensive then defensive so far. Weve had a
pretty good start.
The Panthers were strong from start to nish
against the Wildcats. While Woodside threat-
ened to make runs at certain times, you never
got the sense that Burlingame wasnt in com-
plete control.
More than anything else it was our pass-
ing, said Woodside coach Kyle Mashima of
his teams performance. If we controlled the
serve and got our offense going, we were even.
So, really the difference was in our ability to
control the rst ball. I think Burlingame was
serving the ball really well and we werent
passing as well. The rest of the offense was
pretty even. Things will get better as we go
forward.
Game 1 was pretty even with Woodside
leading midway through the frame on the help
of several Burlingame hitting errors (11 by
sets end).
But the Panthers found their stride, gaining
the lead at 13-12 and never really letting up
the rest of the match. Isabell Walker was all

By glancing at the College of San Mateo
football schedule and seeing an upcoming
game against an 0-2 team, there are those peo-
ple who might think the Bulldogs have caught
a break.
But make no mistake about it. Diablo Valley
College is not your typical 0-2 team. Not by a
long shot. And the Bulldogs know that from
here on the out, theyre in for seven all-out
wars.
This team should be 2-0, said Tim
Tulloch, CSM assistant head coach and defen-
sive coordinator Tim Tulloch. We know
theyre a great team. You just look at the lm
and we see it. If they long snap a little bit bet-
ter, they win both their games.
Tulloch is talking about two impressive per-
formances against two giant opponents
City College of San Francisco (the reigning
national champions) and Santa Rosa. The
Vikings lost both games by a combined nine
points while racking up an average of 521
yards of offense against two very well-
coached and respected defenses.
Theyre extremely well-coached on the
offensive side of the ball, Tulloch said. And
they challenge you because they can run the
ball extremely effectively out of the spread.
They can run the ball until the cows come
home when they want to. And its not four
yards here, six yards there, theyre explosive
plays. They have some serious weapons.
While competing against very talented
teams is nothing new to CSM, Saturdays
game against DVC comes on the heels of a

DENVER Madison Bumgarner hit a three-
run homer on a night when he struggled on the
mound and Brandon Belt drove in four runs,
helping the San Francisco Giants hold on for a 9-
8 win over the Colorado Rockies in rainy condi-
tions Tuesday.
Belt broke a tie in the fth with a two-run dou-
ble. He also brought in a run on a elders choice
and added a solo homer for
the NL West leaders, who
are 20-7 on the road since
the All-Star break.
Bumgarner was roughed
up by the Rockies, allowing
ve runs and 11 hits in 4 1-
3 innings. The lefty gave
the Giants a big boost,
though, with his bat, send-
ing a 93 mph fastball from
Jhoulys Chacin into the
left-eld seats.
San Franciscos bullpen was stellar heading
into the ninth, giving up just one run. But Sergio
Romo gave up a two-out, two-run homer to
pinch-hitter Tyler Colvin to make things inter-
esting. Lefty Javier Lopez was called in to face
Jason Giambi, who popped up to end the game.
It was Lopezs seventh save.
George Kontos (2-1) picked up the win by
bailing the Giants out of a tight spot in the fth
with two strikeouts.
Chris Nelson, Wilin Rosario, Jordan Pacheco,
Matt McBride and Carlos Gonzalez all had RBI
singles for the Rockies.
After a shaky outing from Chacin, Carlos
Torres (4-2) took over in the fth and promptly
ran into trouble. Belt gave the giants the lead for
good when he doubled off the glove of Gonzalez
in left. As the ball rolled into the corner, Marco
Scutaro and Buster Posey came around to score.
Scutaro has been quite a catalyst for the Giants
since he was acquired from the Rockies in late
July. Hes hit safely in 34 of 43 games since don-
ning a San Francisco uniform.
For him coming up with some of the big hits
with the Giants, Im not the least bit surprised,
Colorado manager Jim Tracy said before the
game. Hes a terric player. Hes a very heady
player.
Down 4-0 in the fth, the Giants rallied to tie
it. The big blow was Bumgarners three-run shot
a no-doubter, too, as Gonzalez briey turned
to give chase before watching it leave the park.
Bumgarners only other major league homer
came three months ago against Houston.
While Bumgarner shined at the plate also
lacing a single he never found a groove on the
mound. Thats unusual for Bumgarner in this
park, where he had allowed just two earned runs
in his last three starts at Coors Field.
The quirky Colorado weather befuddled the
Giants in the third inning. With San Francisco
about to bat, the wind and rain moved in, mak-
ing the conditions almost look like swirling
snow. Chacin yielded two singles, but wiggled
out of the jam when Pablo Sandoval ew out.
Then, in the bottom half of the inning, the rain
all but vanished.
And the Rockies took full advantage of the
change in weather. Chacin ignited a three-run
inning with a leadoff double. He later scored
when Josh Rutledge hit into a double play.
Bumgarner then gave up four straight hits,
including run-scoring singles to Rosario and
Pacheco.
Colorado scored a run in the second on
Nelsons RBI single. Bumgarner escaped any
further trouble by getting DJ LeMahieu to hit
into an inning-ending double play.
NOTES: The Giants reinstated RHP Clay
Hensley (groin) from the disabled list. ... RHP
Tim Lincecum (8-14) will start Wednesday
against LHP Jeff Francis (5-4). ... Rockies C
Ramon Hernandez (hamstring) had an MRI on
Tuesday. ... LHP Jorge De La Rosa (elbow)
threw 3 2-3 innings and gave up one run
Monday for Class-A Modesto.
Giants increase lead

ANAHEIM Jerry Blevins got Howie
Kendrick to ground into a game-ending dou-
ble play with two runners on in the ninth
inning, and the Oakland Athletics held off the
Los Angeles Angels 6-5 Tuesday night for
their fth straight victory.
Brandon Moss and Yoenis Cespedes home-
red and Dan Straily pitched into the seventh
inning of his fourth major league start for the
As. Oakland emerged with its 11th straight
road victory, matching the second-longest
streak in franchise history.
Torii Hunter and Albert Pujols had run-scor-
ing singles in the ninth for the Angels, who
had runners at the corners and nobody out
before Blevins relieved As closer Grant
Balfour and earned his rst save since 2010 in
dramatic fashion.
Coco Crisp hit a ninth-inning RBI triple and
scored on Hunters error in right eld for the
As, who have taken two straight at Angel
Stadium with a rookie starter on the mound.
This one wasnt nearly as tidy as Mondays
3-1 win, however.
Balfour walked Chris Iannetta and Mike
Trout to open the ninth, and Hunter cut
Oaklands lead to two runs with a single to
center. Pujols then drove an RBI single to left,
chasing the As closer.
Blevins, who had just one save in his rst
204 career appearances, struck out Kendrys
Morales. Kendrick then grounded to third, and
Oakland smartly turned the double play to end
it.
Vernon Wells hit an early two-run homer
and Hunter chased Straily with a seventh-
inning shot for the Angels, whose wild-card
hopes took another hit. Los Angeles had won
six straight and 11 of 12 before opping twice
against the As, who were swept by the Angels
in a three-game series last week.
Straily (2-0) yielded seven hits and struck
out eight in his rst start since coming up from
Triple-A Sacramento last week to take the
rotation spot of injured right-hander Brandon
McCarthy.
Oakland (81-60) has won 14 of 17 and 20 of
25, moving 21 games over .500 for the rst
time since the end of the 2006 season. The
Athletics grasp on a wild-card spot gets
stronger with each game in Anaheim, and
theyre just three games behind Texas for the
AL West lead.
The As hadnt won 11 straight road games
since 1981. Theyll attempt to match the fran-
chise record of 12 straight road wins
Wednesday night when A.J. Grifn pitches
against Los Angeles Ervin Santana.
Trout had three hits for Los Angeles (77-
65), which dropped 2 1/2 games behind
Baltimore and the Yankees (79-62) for the sec-
ond wild-card spot with its rst back-to-back
losses since Aug. 25-26. Tampa Bay (77-64)
also is between the Angels and that wild-card
slot.
Jerome Williams (6-8) couldnt make it out
of the fourth inning in his rst start for Los
Angeles since July 19. The veteran gave up
four runs and ve hits, including four straight
during Oaklands three-run fourth.
Cespedes hadnt homered in his previous 21
games until he connected in the second
inning, his line drive barely eluding Trouts
glove at the wall in center.
Wells put the Angels in front with a two-run
shot down the left-eld line in the second
inning, his fth homer in 15 games.
Williams was the Angels fth starter early
in the season before injuries sidelined him, but
he got a spot start when ace Jered Weaver
skipped a turn to rest the tendinitis in his right
shoulder.
After Moss hit his 18th homer, Josh
Donaldson singled and scored on Stephen
Drews sacrifice fly off reliever Nick
Maronde.
Hunter, who is hitting well over .400 in the
past two weeks, connected for his 14th homer
in the seventh.

COLUMBUS, Ohio Spurred on by a
roaring crowd decked out in red, white and
blue, the United States used all of that emo-
tion as fuel to pull off a signicant World Cup
qualifying victory.
The U.S. rebounded from a loss at Jamaica
four nights earlier and moved back into a tie
for its group lead by beating the Reggae Boyz
1-0 Tuesday night as Herculez Gomez curled
in a free kick in the 55th minute.
It was a night when the only respite from
the din from a capacity crowd of 23,881 was
the moment of silence before the game in
remembrance of the 11th anniversary of Sept.
11 terrorist attacks.
That was an awesome homecoming,
Gomez said afterward, almost drowned out as
fans left Crew Stadium chanting and cheer-
ing. You couldnt ask for more. The crowd
was great, and the guys fed off of it.
The U.S., which made ve changes to its
starting lineup from Fridays 2-1 loss in
Kingston, is tied with Guatemala (2-1-1) at
seven points in Group A of the North and
Central American and Caribbean seminals.
Jamaica (2-1-1) also has seven points but
trails on goal difference.
The top two nations advance to next years
six-team regional nals, which will produce
three qualiers for the 2014 tournament in
Brazil.
Seeking its seventh straight World Cup
appearance, the U.S. plays at virtually elimi-
nated Antigua and Barbuda on Oct. 12, then
completes the semis four days later against
Guatemala at Kansas City, Kan.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SANTA CLARA Leonard
Davis is one of the NFLs biggest
men today because his parents, both
of whom had lost spouses, found
each other in small-town Texas and
decided to add one more child to their
already enormous blended family.
He became No. 22 in the brood,
between them.
No wonder Davis has been such a
perfect t in Jim Harbaughs family-
oriented San Francisco locker room
since the 12th-year guard signed with
the 49ers this summer.
When his mother remarried,
Sammie Lee Davis never doubted
she would have one more child to
give her 11.
Little did she know, her last would
wind up a 6-foot-6, 355-pound offen-
sive lineman. After all, Davis was
born at a healthy, yet rather average 7
1/2 pounds, less than a month after
she turned 40.
He got big in a hurry.
Ive been the biggest since Day
1, Davis said, From kindergarten
all the way through.
In fact, Davis began growing so
fast he was out of his infant clothes in
no time, and he fussed so regularly
his mom nally realized he was just
plain hungry. All the time.
I started to put a teaspoon of baby
rice in his bottle with formula, and it
was just like you gave him a sleeping
pill, she recalled.
Sammie Lee was twice a widow
when she married Davis dad. She
lost her rst husband in a car accident
and her second to cancer. L.A. Davis,
a minister who died in 2007, was
already a father to 11 of his own
before his rst wife died of a hemor-
rhage.
One of his young sons was in
school with one of her daughters.
Davis is doing a much better job
keeping track of the 49ers complex
playbook than he ever has remember-
ing how many nieces and nephews he
has, let alone their names.
People dont have that many kids
nowadays, said Davis, a father of
two girls, 9-year-old Meeya and 7-
year-old Mariya.
Davis emerged as a rock-solid run-
blocker during his best seasons from
2007-2010 with the Dallas Cowboys,
who released him before training
camp in 2011. He started every game
from 2006, his last season in Arizona,
through 2010.
Yet the 34-year-old Davis didnt
play a single snap last season after
signing with Detroit in November.
Then, Davis had offseason foot
surgery. Harbaugh gave him a shot
after Davis visited the 49ers this
spring. He signed four months later,
ahead of training camp.
Leonard Davis literally a big addition to 49ers
back-to-back performances in
which the Bulldogs consider them-
selves somewhat fortunate to come
away with wins.
Against Chabot College, CSM
found themselves down 13-0 before
waking up and charging out to a 27-
13 lead behind three Quincy Nelson
touchdowns.
Chabot answered and tied the
game at 27 and it took a strong n-
ish by the Bulldogs to come away
with the 40-27 win.
Tulloch knows that comebacks
are nice, but if the Bulldogs have a
similar start against DVC, they
might nd themselves at the bottom
of a pit way too deep to claw out of.
We cant dig ourselves holes,
Tulloch said. The first drive is
extremely important. We have to
make sure rst series, rst quarter,
we start with that killer instinct.
That we punch rst. In any ght,
you have to punch rst and you have
to punch hard. And I think thats
what were preaching this week.
You have to start strong. You cant
dig yourself a hole against a great
team.
DVC has some gifted weapons.
Pulling the trigger at quarterback is
Quinn Kaehler, a two-year starter
whos thrown for 860 yards and
eight touchdowns already in 2012.
A ne trio of receivers helps
Cameron Rowland in the slot is
DVCs leading receiver while
Diante Jackson, a bounce-back from
Oregon University, and Andre
Lewis (Utah-committed already)
and his ve touchdowns, are major
threats on the outside.
No. 1 thing we need to do is play
hard and play together, Tulloch
said. If we do that, were going to
be on the right track and ready for
these teams of this caliber. You cant
start slow, you have to start strong
and you have to eliminate easy ones.
You have to make it earn it. You
have to make good teams earn their
points.
Names on a roster aside, CSM
hasnt looked very sharp defensive-
ly in 2012. The Bulldogs come into
Saturdays game allowing an aver-
age of 387 yards on defense.
[Thats] way too much, Tulloch
said. Way too much. I dont think
anybody on defense, players and
coaches included, are happy with
what were doing. And we surely
havent played our best. We need to
take a step forward and hopefully
this is the week we do it. If we
dont, with DVCs offense, youre
going to have your hands full. Its
going to be a long day. So, you bet-
ter make some strides and I know
the players are committed to do it.
We expect on defense to change it.
Tulloch made it clear his defense
isnt backing down. And the same
goes for the CSM offense, who is
airing the ball out a lot more in 2012
behind John Willis.
What was great [against Chabot]
was seeing all the explosion on
offense, Tulloch said. You seen all
the skill players really step up and
that was a big thing. Obviously the
turnovers are something were
working hard to address. If we can
do be explosive like we are and run
the ball like we did last week, along
with protecting the football, were
going to continue to make those
strides. Defensively, we just have to
play harder.
Theyll have to play much harder
from here on out. While DVC is 0-
2, after Saturdays game, their
remaining six opponents are cur-
rently a combined 12-0.
We respect everybody, Tulloch
said, but were not a team thats
going to be scared of anybody.
Theres a big difference. We respect
what they do. We understand the
challenges they pose but there not
an ounce of fear. Were going to out
and play Bulldog football.
We see the best offenses in the
state year in and year out. So, our
guys, its no different for them.
They know theyre going to be chal-
lenged by the best and thats why
they came to (CSM). They want to
play this schedule. We want to
coach this schedule. You embrace it
and you encourage it. Its great for
our guys.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Mary A. Marshall
aka Mary Albertina Marshall
Case Number 122657
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: Mary A. Marshall aka
Mary Albertina Marshall. A Petition for
Probate has been filed by Marilyn M.
Moon in the Superior Court of California,
County of San Mateo. The Petition for
Probate requests that Marilyn M. Moon
be appointed as personal representative
to administer the estate of the decedent.
The petition requests the decedents will
and codicils, if any, be admitted to pro-
bate. The will and any codicils are avail-
able for examination in the file kept by
the court.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ster the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: October 2, 2012 at
9:00 a.m., Dept. 28, Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo, 400
County Center, 1st Floor, Redwood City,
CA 94063. If you object to the granting
of the petition, you should appear at the
hearing and state your objections or file
written objections with the court before
the hearing. Your appearance may be in
person or by your attorney. If you are a
creditor or a contingent creditor of the
decedent, you must file your claim with
the court and mail a copy to the personal
representative appointed by the court
within four months from the date of first
issuance of letters as provided in Pro-
bate Code section 9100. The time for fil-
ing claims will not expire before four
months from the hearing date noticed
above. You may examine the file kept by
the court. If you are a person interested
in the estate, you may file with the court
a Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.

CAIRO A movie attacking Islams
prophet Muhammad sparked assaults on U.S.
diplomatic missions in Libya and Egypt on
Tuesday. A Libyan security ofcial reported
an American was shot to death as protesters
burned the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, and in
Cairo, protesters scaled the walls of the U.S.
embassy walls and replaced an American ag
with an Islamic banner.
It was the rst such assaults on U.S. diplo-
matic facilities in either country, at a time
when both Libya and Egypt are struggling to
overcome the turmoil following the ouster of
their longtime leaders, Moammar Gadha
and Hosni Mubarak in uprisings last year.
The protests in both countries were sparked
by outrage over a video being promoted by an
extreme anti-Muslim Egyptian Christian
campaigner in the United States.
In the eastern Libyan city of Benghazi, a
large mob stormed the U.S. Consulate, with
gunmen ring their weapons, said Wanis al-
Sharef, an Interior Ministry official in
Bengazi. A witness said attackers red auto-
matic weapons and rocket-propelled grenades
at the consulate they clashed with Libyans
hired to guard the facility.
Outnumbered by the crowd, Libyan securi-
ty forces did little to stop them, al-Sharef
said.
The crowd overwhelmed the facility and set
re to it, burning most of it and looting the
contents, witnesses said.
One American was shot to death and a sec-
ond was wounded in the hand, al-Sharef said.
He did not give further details, and there was
no immediate U.S. conrmation of the death.
Hours before the Benghazi attack, hundreds
of mainly ultraconservative Islamist protest-
ers in Egypt marched to the U.S. Embassy in
downtown Cairo, gathering outside its walls
and chanting against the movie and the U.S.
Most of the embassy staff had left the com-
pound earlier because of warnings of the
upcoming demonstration.
Say it, dont fear: Their ambassador must
leave, the crowd chanted.
Dozens of protesters then scaled the
embassy walls, and several went into the
courtyard and took down the American ag
from a pole. They brought it back to the
crowd outside, which tried to burn it, but fail-
ing that tore it apart.
The protesters on the wall then raised on
the agpole a black ag with a Muslim decla-
ration of faith, There is no god but God and
Muhammad is his prophet. The ag, similar
to the banner used by al-Qaida, is commonly
used by ultraconservatives around the region.
The crowd grew throughout the evening
with thousands standing outside the embassy.
Dozens of riot police lined up along the
embassy walls but did not stop protesters as
they continued to climb and stand on the wall
- though it appeared no more went into the
compound.
The crowd chanted, Islamic, Islamic. The
right of our prophet will not die. Some
shouted, We are all Osama, referring to al-
Qaida leader bin Laden. Young men, some in
masks, sprayed grafti on the walls. Some
grumbled that Islamist President Mohammed
Morsi had not spoken out about the movie.
A group of women in black veils and robes
that left only their eyes exposed chanted,
Worshippers of the Cross, leave the Prophet
Muhammad alone.
By midnight, the crowd had dwindled. The
U.S. Embassy said on its Twitter account that
there will be no visa services on Wednesday
because of the protests.
A senior Egyptian security ofcial at the
embassy area said authorities allowed the
protest because it was peaceful. When they
started climbing the walls, he said he called
for more troops, denying that the protesters
stormed the embassy. He spoke on condition
of anonymity because he was not authorized
to speak to reporters.
