MOODYS: MORE CALIFORNIA CITIES AT RISK OF BANKRUPTCY

Authorities Friday sought a high-
risk sex offender with a history of
violence who escaped a locked
Redwood City mental facility
where he was committed as incom-
petent to stand trial on a misde-
meanor charge of annoying a child.
D e r r i c k
Sanders, 34, a
resident of
C o r d i l l e r a s
Mental Health
Facility at 200
Edmonds Road
in Redwood
City, went
missing Friday
m o r n i n g ,
according to the San Mateo County
Sheriffs Office.
As of Friday afternoon, there
was no word of his whereabouts
and his destination remained
unknown, said Sheriffs Lt. Larry
Schumaker. Sanders is considered
high risk because he is a sex
offender, not necessary because of
the nature of the offense,
Schumaker said.
Sanders was discovered missing
by staff at Cordilleras Center dur-
ing early-morning rounds Friday.
He is believed to have possibly left
the facility through an elevator
shaft, according to the Sheriffs
Office.
Sanders is a transient who fre-
quents San Mateo and Alameda
counties. He is described as 5 feet
11 inches and 165 pounds. He was
last seen wearing a red polo shirt
and blue jeans. He is also wanted
on a parole violation warrant
issued by the California
Department of Corrections.
Sanders was prosecuted in 2009
for failing to register as a sex
offender and he was arrested in
May 2011 for allegedly annoying a

Not everyones culinary dreams
are meant to be. At least, not the rst

For Foster City resident Debbie
Kaufman, the second attempt at a

Is a ve-minute video featuring
Burlingame and hosted by former
NFL quarterback Terry Bradshaw
worth $20,000?
The City Council will have the
chance to weigh in on that idea
Monday. Burlingame was approached
by Today in America, a program
that describes itself as a cable show
hosted by Bradshaw. Scheduling the
shoot for the ve-minute video comes
with a $19,800 fee. In the staff report,
City Manager Jim Nantell warns
some have called the program a scam
but it does produce what could be
described as an infomercial. Since the
city has previously expressed interest
in creating a promotional video,
Nantell brought the item forward for
discussion.
Mayor Jerry
Deal explained it
could be an
opportunity to get
a well-produced
p r o mo t i o n a l
video for the city.
If people dont
know about the
city, they cant be
here to visit and
shop, said Deal.
The price would allow Burlingame
to own the segment. It might run on
television but Deal was most interest-
ed in the ability to distribute it locally
to hotels as a way to entice those
planning larger events to use
Burlingame. If it were to move for-
ward, Deal anticipated putting togeth-
er a focus group to decide what would
be featured in the piece.

Flowers will bloom this weekend at the
Maple Street Shelter in Redwood City thanks
to Jake Bornstein, a Boy Scout from Los Altos
who will nally get his wings.
This weekend, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.,
Bornstein will lead a group of approximately
10 to 15 Boy Scouts and their families in
rebuilding a community garden for the people
of the Maple Street Shelter as part of his nal
step to becoming an Eagle Scout the Boys
Scouts of Americas highest honor.
It all comes down to this, to see if you can
become a leader, Bornstein said of the project.
In complying with the leadership project
rules, Bornstein chose the Maple Street Shelter,
a nonprot of the InnVision Shelter Network
that has been aiding homeless adults since
1987.
The garden that Jake is putting together is a
key component to providing [a] safe environ-
ment so that people can overcome the chal-
lenges (of homelessness) and get back to per-
manent housing, said Maria Duzon, market-
ing manager for InnVision Shelter Network.
This project is a form of leadership,
Bornstein said. Its probably the hardest step
in becoming an Eagle because this is where
youve proved everything
youve learned throughout
your Boy Scout experi-
ence.
The garden will take
shape in front of the shelter
and Bornstein said he
hopes the residents will
spend time in the garden
and help with the upkeep
once the initial remodel is
nished.
It means a great accomplishment to have
said that I was able to do this, something that
takes years to be able to become, Bornstein
said of becoming an Eagle Scout. It really
teaches you how you can help other people and
be a leader in ways you never thought you
could be.
Since the Boy Scouts was founded in 1910,
only 5 percent of its Scouts have reached the
Eagle level and each of the 21 badges is a huge
amount of work that can take any number of
months to obtain.
Bornstein said his community project took
four months of planning and donations from
the community. Lyngso Gardens in Redwood
City was a huge contributor, donating many of
the supplies needed to complete the garden.
He (Bornstein) is a very sweet guy. I was
very impressed with his maturity, Pamela
Parkinson of Lyngso Gardens said.
[Donations] are new for Lyngso and it was a
small amount he needed for a small area to add
beauty. A little goes a long way.
Additional donations came from other gar-
den-supply companies, family and friends. On
top of the garden, the money raised will go
toward a solar-powered fountain, something
Bornstein said he felt was a must for the resi-
dents of the shelter.
Not only is it (the garden) helping residents
that are there now but its going to help the res-
idents that come through our doors for years to
come and were so honored to be a part of this
great project, Duzon said.
Self-independence, character building and a
service to others are all goals of the Boy
Scouts and theyll be on display this weekend
when Bornstein rebuilds a garden for the resi-
dents of the Maple Street Shelter.
Its pretty much the rst time Ive had a sig-
nicant amount of leadership and Im feeling
pretty excited and nervous at the same time,
Bornstein said, Its myself leading the group
of Scouts in this garden and Ill be in com-
mand.

A Placerville sex offender linked by DNA to
the 1986 rape and fatal beating of a 17-year-
old Ben Lomond girl whose body was discov-
ered down a San Mateo County embankment
was charged Friday with special circumstance
murder.
The charge of murder during the course of
either kidnapping or sexual assault could leave
John William Kelley, 49, facing the death
penalty or life in prison without the chance of
parole in the death of Annette Thur.
Prosecutors could not charge him with rape
or kidnapping because the statute of limita-
tions has expired, said District Attorney Steve
Wagstaffe.
On Friday, Kelley appeared in court for the
rst time since his Wednesday arrest but held
off entering a plea until after he is assigned a
court-appointed attorney. A judge upheld his
no-bail status and ordered him back Aug. 28.
Kelley was previously convicted of rape
which led to his genetic proles presence in
the DNA databank that linked him to Thurs
killing.
Thur was last seen early Dec. 6, 1986 leav-
ing a party in Boulder Creek with the intention
of hitchhiking. Later that day, a tourist stop-
ping to check out the view from Skyline
Boulevard just north of Alpine Road spotted
her body eight feet down the embankment
with a denim jacket over her head and torso.
Investigators determined Thur had been sexu-
ally assaulted, beaten and possibly strangled
but were never able to pinpoint a viable sus-
pect.
Earlier this year, the county crime lab ran
DNA from the scene again and hit on Kelley,
a registered sex offender who has lived in
Oregon and California. Kelley lived in Ben
Lomond at the time of Thurs death and, near-
ly a decade later, in 1995, was convicted of
rape in Humboldt County.
Kelley has a duty to register as a sex offend-
er but is not listed on the Megans Law data-
base website.
Investigators interviewed Kelley in
Placerville Wednesday and arrested him after
nding sufcient probable cause, according to
a Sheriffs Ofce statement.
The Sheriffs Ofce had forwarded the Thur
case and several others to the crime lab for
new analysis after it received a grant for cold
cases, said Sgt. Linda Gibbons.
Had the technology been available at the
time, Wagstaffe said Kelley most likely would
have been nabbed in the original investigation.
If what occurred now could have occurred
then we would have had him. This guy had no
connection with her at all and the detectives
talked to everybody but they just didnt have
the database, Wagstaffe said.
Anyone with information about the crime or
Kelley is asked to contact Detective Andy
Armando at 363-4347 or aarmando@smc-
gov.org or Detective Matt Broad at 363-4363
or mbroad@smcgov.org. Callers may also use
the Sheriff s Ofce Anonymous Witness Line
at (800) 547-2700.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
Ready to strut this weekend?
Consider joining hundreds of people
Saturday morning for the 18th annual Mutt
Strutt dog walk and fundraiser at Coyote Point
in San Mateo. In recent years, the fundraiser
supporting the Peninsula Humane Society and
SPCA has drawn between 400 to 500 people
and raised more than $60,000 annually.
If each walker asked 10 friends for $10
each, we could signicantly change the lives
of hundreds of homeless animals who need
specialty care or attention before they can be
made available for adoption, PHS/SPCA
President Ken White wrote in a prepared state-
ment.
Walkers can participate in a 1K or 3K stroll
starting at 11 a.m. Registration starts at 9 a.m.
All registrants will get a T-shirt and a bandan-
na for their dog.
In addition to the walk, there will be animal-
related vendor booths, animal demonstrations,
prizes and music. Also, dogs can compete in
pre-walk contests to earn the title of most tal-
ented or best costume.
In addition to the $28 registration fee,
PHS/SPCA encourages participants to collect
pledges and will give prizes to individuals at
the $100, $200, $300, $400 and $600 levels,
as well as a nights stay at pet-friendly
Stanford Inn in Mendocino for the top
fundraiser.
Last year, PHS/SPCA took in more than
4,000 stray, injured, abused or abandoned
dogs and, for the sixth straight year, found a
new home for every healthy, adoptable dog.
With funds raised during Mutt Strutt,
PHS/SPCA will be able to make a greater
number of treatable animals well so they, too,
can be adopted, according to the PHS.
Coyote Point Park is located at 1701 Coyote
Point Drive, San Mateo. For more information
contact Dawn Kelsey Fanara at 340-7022 ext.
375 or DKelsey@PHS-SPCA.org.

A $147 million project to raise the Caltrain
tracks 18 feet above three busy intersections in
downtown San Bruno is about halfway com-
pleted, transit ofcials announced.
The San Bruno Grade Separation Project,
which broke ground in November 2010, will
elevate nearly a mile of Caltrain tracks above
San Bruno, allowing multiple daily trains to
pass safely above trafc and pedestrians on
newly constructed bridges passing over inter-
sections at San Bruno, San Mateo and Angus
avenues.
Caltrain spokeswoman Christine Dunn said
the change in downtown San Bruno is already
dramatic, with bridges and support structures
for the tracks reaching up into the skyline.
I dont know if youve driven by in a while,
but the change is dramatic, Dunn said. You
get a real sense of the project taking shape.
The reinforced concrete support structures
sit atop a series of more than 300 steel pilings,
some of which plunge more than 70 feet into
the ground, Dunn said.
Given the busy nature of the location of the
project, mitigating the effects of construction
on trafc has been challenging, Dunn said.
The northern end of the project is adjacent
to Interstate 380, while the bridges are being
constructed over San Bruno Avenue which
connects to Highway 101 and San Mateo
Avenue, which is one of the main surface
streets that leads into to downtown San Bruno.

For Bonello, the grand prize, double the
amount given out last year, will help cover
two years of college at California State
University, Monterey. She plans to study
health and human services and work with
immigrant families, like her family which
moved to the United States from Malta when
she was 2.
While this is the sixth annual queen of the
festival, the festival itself has a longer histo-
ry.
The celebration began as a small commu-
nity event taking up less than a block with
about 1,500 people attending. This years
event, which included national advertising
spots, was expected to bring 40,000 patrons.
When it started, the festival was funded
completely by the San Mateo County
Sheriffs Office, but that was unsustainable.
After a two-year hiatus, the festival returned
seven years ago as a benefit for youth pro-
grams offered through the Sheriffs Office
like athletics, homework clubs, literacy
clubs, anti-drug and gang programs and
other education opportunities. Along with
the reemergence came a public outcry for a
queen a traditional aspect to such festi-
vals. The idea came to be one that would
also support educational opportunities for
the candidates.
Possible candidates go through a rigorous
selection process which requires maintain-
ing certain grades, collegiate plans and com-
munity service. Only five young ladies can
be chosen to participate, but numerous
applications are welcome. The competition
is tied to ticket sales. Bonello noted the win-
ning girl had always sold at least 2,000 tick-
ets. Her goal was to sell more. She broke the
record with more than 3,100 tickets sold.
Altogether the girls raised a record
amount of money between the end of April
and beginning of August $30,000. Money
raised goes to support community programs.
This years festival also has some new fea-
tures in hopes of reaching a younger crowd,
said Tompkinson. Luche Libre wrestlers will
be on hand to get things kicked off. But also,
for the first time, the festival will include
some techno/dance music along with more
traditional tunes.
As the goal of the event is to inform the
community, those who attend will also have
an opportunity to donate blood and register
for Be The Match, a company that helps find
possible bone marrow donor matches.
The North Fair Oaks Community Festival
will be held from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday,
Aug. 19 on Middlefield Road between First
and Fifth avenues in Redwood City. For

State unemployment rate show little change in July
Unemployment rates changed little in California and in the
Bay Area in July, according to a report released by state employ-
ment ofcials.
Californias unemployment rate hovered at 10.7 percent in
July for the second month in a row, according to the California
Employment Development Department. That rate is lower than
the 11.9 percent rate seen in the state a year ago, but higher than
the U.S. rate of 8.3 percent.
Marin County, which maintains the lowest jobless rate in the
state, saw a small increase for the second month in a row, from
6.6 percent in June to 6.7 percent in July.
Meanwhile Solano County, which has the highest unemploy-
ment rate in the Bay Area, saw a small decrease, from 10.5 per-
cent in June to 10.3 percent in July.
Elsewhere in the Bay Area, San Francisco saw a slight
decrease, from 7.8 percent in June to 7.6 percent in July.
Alameda County was at 9.5 percent and Santa Clara County at
8.7 percent in July.
Unemployment rates rose in 44 U.S. states in July
WASHINGTON Unemployment rates rose in 44 U.S.
states in July, the most states to show a monthly increase in more
than three years and a reection of weak hiring nationwide.
The Labor Department said Friday that unemployment rates
fell in only two states and were unchanged in four.
Unemployment rates rose in nine states that are considered
battlegrounds in the presidential election. That trend, if it contin-
ued, could pose a threat to President Barack Obamas re-election
bid in less than three months.
Nationwide, hiring improved in July after three months of
tepid job gains. But the national unemployment rate ticked up to
8.3 percent from 8.2 percent. Monthly job gains have averaged
150,000 this year.
Cities dispute redevelopment
money sought by California
SACRAMENTO Gov. Jerry Browns nance department
said 27 local governments have failed to pay or have underpaid
the state after the governor tried to sweep up billions of dollars
from community redevelopment agencies that were eliminated
this year.
Yet cities such as San Jose, Stockton and Brea are disputing
the bill from the administration, saying it is using unreasonable
accounting methods. Ofcials there said forcing payments to the
state could trigger bond defaults.
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
The fall trial of a Woodside man
accused of killing his wife two years ago
and staging the shooting as a suicide to
collect millions of dollars in insurance
payouts was delayed Friday because his
defense attorney needs more time to pre-
pare for the potentially capital murder
trial.
Pooroushasb Peter Parineh, 66, was
originally scheduled for trial Oct. 1 on
charges of murder, gun use and murder for
nancial gain. However, on Friday, Judge
Jack Grandsaert allowed attorney Dek
Ketchum more time to ready for trial and
reset it for Jan. 22.
Parineh has pleaded not guilty to the
Aug. 13, 2010 death
of Parima Parineh, 56,
who was shot twice in
the head in the bed-
room of the couples
multi-million dollar
home on Fox Hill
Road in Woodside.
At a preliminary
hearing last fall, the
prosecution argued
Parineh stood to ben-
et from $31 million in life insurance
policies and, outside court, said he also
had a longtime mistress.
Parineh allegedly gave authorities dif-
fering stories; once, he said he found his
wife dead and, another time, that he found
her wounded and nished the job at her
request.
At the time of his wifes death, Parineh
was $13 million to $14 million in debt and
his list of foreclosures included the Fox
Hill home and several properties scattered
throughout the state. His wife had a num-
ber of life insurance policies totaling $31
million but they had a lien against them
and were about to end without payment.
In April, the Parineh children sued their
father for wrongful death, claiming that
she survived the attack for some period
of time before dying as a result and that
they also believe his purpose in willfully
and maliciously murdering her was to
benet nancially from certain life insur-
ance payouts.
Trial delayed for man charged in wifes slaying

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO One of the
nations top credit rating agencies said
Friday that it expects more municipal
bankruptcies and defaults in California,
the nations largest issuer of municipal
bonds.
Moodys Investors Service said in a
report that the growing scal distress in
many California cities was putting bond-
holders at risk.
The service announced that it will
undertake a wide-ranging review of
municipal nances in the nations most
populous state because of what it sees as
a growing threat of insolvency.
The report has both investors and gov-
ernment leaders worried.
Three California cities Stockton,
San Bernardino and Mammoth Lakes
have led for bankruptcy so far this year.
They are not likely to be the last,
Moodys said.
Moodys reports that some cities are
turning bankruptcy as a new strategy to
take on budget decits and avoid obliga-
tions to bondholders, an emerging
dynamic that could have ripple effects
throughout the investment community.
The municipal bond market has long
been characterized by low default rates
and relatively stable nances, Moodys
said, but that outlook is beginning to
change as bankruptcy becomes a tool for
cash-strapped cities.
As a result, the agency will reassess
the nancial position of all cities in
California, which issues about 20 per-
cent of the municipal bond volume
nationwide, to reect the new scal
realities and the governmental prac-
tices.
The agency also will examine the out-
look for municipal bonds in other trou-
bled states, according to Robert Kurtter,
managing director of public nance at
Moodys.
Moodys would not say which states it
will review, though Kurtter mentioned
Michigan and Nevada as possibilities.
Fridays report noted that cities across
the country are in nancial distress but
said that a greater share of bankruptcies
are expected in California.
In California, officials rushed to
downplay the report.

MOSCOW Three punk rock-
style activists who briey took over
a cathedral in a raucous prayer for
deliverance from Vladimir Putin
were sentenced to two years in
prison for hooliganism on Friday, a
decision that drew protests around
the world as it highlighted the
Russian presidents intensifying
crackdown on dissent.
Protesters from Moscow to New
York and musicians including
Madonna and Paul McCartney con-
demned the prosecution of the three
women, members of a band called
Pussy Riot. Several countries,
including the U.S., and even some
Kremlin loyalists decried the ver-
dict.
Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, 22,
Maria Alekhina, 24, and Yekaterina
Samutsevich, 30, were arrested in
March after performing a punk
prayer in Christ the Savior
Cathedral, dancing and high-kick-
ing as they called on the Virgin
Mary to save Russia from Putin,
who was elected to a third term as
Russias president two weeks later.
Judge Marina Syrova ruled Friday
that the band members had com-
mitted hooliganism driven by reli-
gious hatred. She rejected the
womens arguments that they were
protesting the Russian Orthodox
Churchs support for Putin and did-
nt intend to offend religious believ-
ers.
Putin himself had said the band
members shouldnt be judged too
harshly, creating expectations that
they could be sentenced to time
served and freed in the courtroom.
This, however, would have left the
impression that Putin had bowed to
public pressure, something he has
resisted throughout his 12 years in
power.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry
Peskov said that Putin couldnt
intervene in the judicial
process and refused to com-
ment on the sentence.
Activists get two years for anti-Putin protest
Firebomb thrown into taxi
wounds six Palestinians
JERUSALEM Six
Palestinians have been wounded in
a suspected firebomb attack by
Jewish extremists in the West Bank,
The Israeli military said.
The six were traveling in a taxi
Thursday night when the firebomb
was allegedly thrown into the car.
The military suspects Jewish
extremists to be behind the attack.
Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu condemned the fire-
bombing, saying Israel will do
everything to catch those responsi-
ble and bring them to justice.
Extremist Israeli settlers often
attack Palestinians and their prop-
erty as part of a campaign they call
the price tag, which is meant to
retaliate for either army action
against settlers or Palestinian
attacks. Several more firebombs
were hurled earlier Thursday
toward settler vehicles in the West
Bank.
The Israeli military says it is still
searching for the culprits.
In the United States, state depart-
ment spokeswoman Victoria
Nuland condemned the heinous
attack, noting that the Israeli gov-
ernment had pledged to bring the
perpetrators to justice.

SOUTHAMPTON, N.Y. The
jobs-and-economy election sud-
denly seems all about Medicare
for now, at least.
Republican Mitt Romney is
embracing a topic his party usually
approaches gingerly. He is taking a
calculated risk that voters worries
about federal deficits and the
Democrats health care overhaul
have opened the door for a robust
debate on the solvency of
Medicare, the insurance program
for retirees.
P r e s i d e n t
Barack Obama
is welcoming
the conversa-
tion, which has
t e mp o r a r i l y
taken attention
from the weak
e c o n o m i c
recovery.
One party
may regret its position on Nov. 6.
Retirees in politically prized
states such as Florida have often
resisted changes in Medicare, one
of the governments most popular
but costliest programs. But GOP
strategists say
todays voters
r e a l i z e
M e d i c a r e
spending must
be constrained,
and Romney is
banking on dis-
e nc ha nt me nt
with Obamas
2010 health
care law to
pave the way for his own propos-
als.
Romney, who has spent more
than a year running almost entirely
on the economy and jobs, put
Medicare at the campaigns center
when he chose as his running mate.
Rep. Paul Ryan is Congress chief
advocate of significantly restrain-
ing entitlement programs.
Ryan was critical of Obamas
handling of Medicare during a
campaign stop in Springfield, Va.,
repeating his assertion thata the
GOP ticket welcomed the debate
over the future of Medicare. The
Wisconsin congressman is expect-
ed to revisit Medicare in some
depth in Florida on Saturday. He
will face voters in a retirement
community north of Orlando
known as The Villages. Ryans 78-
year-old mother, a Medicare recip-
ient, plans to attend.

OPINION 9
Letters to the editor
By Steve Okamoto
S
everal months ago, I wrote on how
well our four Foster City schools
were doing when it came to API test
scores. All four of our schools scored at or
near the top of all San Mateo County
schools. The current scores were recently
announced and, again, our four schools did
very well.
The good news is that our children are
doing well in school. The not so good news
is that our success is creating a large demand
for families to move into Foster City, which
means our schools are impacted by an inux
of new students. Of course, our properties
maintain their strong values as well.
The San Mateo-Foster City Elementary
School District recognized that problem of
overcrowding and has been doing its best to
overcome this issue. One way the district
decided to solve this dilemma was to create a
citizens committee of Foster City residents,
parents and business owners. It was created
to explore different ideas on how to solve
this overcrowding problem. The committee
was to bring their recommendation to the
school board for its consideration and
approval. The school board then would
decide if this recommendation could alleviate
the overcrowding problem. The committee
that Superintendent Cyndy Simms put
together is called the Superintendents
Committee on Overcrowding Relief, or
SCORE.
This committee of 13 interested and con-
cerned citizens has met almost every week
for the past 10 weeks discussing and explor-
ing as many options that could be uncovered
to try and solve this overcrowding issue. The
ideas, a full 30 of them, ranged from the out-
rageous to the sublime. But the members of
the committee showed respect and restraint
when discussing each idea. The committee
members came from different points of view
but they all realized that they needed to come
together to solve this com-
munity problem. I applaud
them for their effort, con-
cern and congeniality.
After discussing all
options, they condensed
them down to about 10.
Some of the options were
simply to build a new
school to accommodate
the ever-growing school-age population. The
stumbling block to that idea was to nd a
suitable location. Was it parks, shopping cen-
ters or wetlands? No one seemed to be able
to answer the location question. They looked
at adding buildings or oors to existing facil-
ities. They even talked about making all
schools in town into year-round programs.
No option was ignored, but each was looked
at from a pro and con perspective. The com-
mittee members were all aware of potential
problems with each idea and looked at them
from a practical perspective.
The committee was led by a most experi-
enced moderator named Geoff Ball who kept
this group of highly motivated members on
the singular path to nd the solution. Also
assisting was Steve Newsome, a land use
expert, who has worked with many school
districts advising them about the legal
requirements for building or redesigning
schools.
After 10 grueling weeks and close to 30
hours of discussion consensus was nally
reached. Actually, a fairly simple solution
was reached. By moving the fth graders
from each of the three elementary schools,
classrooms would be freed up for the inux
of kindergartners in the next two or three
years.
The fth graders, as suggested by the
SCORE group, would move to the Bowditch
Middle School campus. However, this sug-
gestion would be a costly option. The plan
would cost $65 million that would be funded
with a bond issue. It would also require
Bowditch to be demolished and a new school
built. The recommendation created by the
committee proposed that the new school be
designed to house fth and sixth graders on
one side and seventh and eighth graders on
the other side. They would share a common
gym but each side would have their own
library, classrooms, labs and LGIs so there
would be considerable separation between
the younger and older groups.
Proposing to build onto the Bowditch cam-
pus has many advantages. Of course, it
would serve the primary purpose of SCORE
and that was to nd space for the new
kindergartners. Second, it would provide all
Foster City kids with a state-of-the-art
school. The third reason would be the fact
that new land does not need to be purchased
since the school district already owns the
Bowditch campus. This means no parks will
be affected as well as the initial thought of
trying to use the Charter Square property as
the location for the new school. The plan to
rebuild Bowditch also will provide more out-
door space for lunches and recess times.
Finally, the property values in Foster City
will increase signicantly because a new
school is in town.
This option was presented to the school
board on the second of August for considera-
tion and then to the City Council on Monday,
Aug. 6 as an information item. According to
Superintendent Simms, this document will be
presented to the public for additional input
sometime in the near future.

Council. He can be reached at sokamoto@fos-
tercity.org or 286-3501.
Many ways to transfer on SamTrans
Editor,
Mr. Douglas Bells letter: Transfer ease
would help SamTrans in Aug. 14 edition of
the Daily Journal, indicated that he was
unaware of the many ways SamTrans passen-
gers can transfer between buses and neigh-
boring services to make their trips on our
system easier and more efcient.
I am writing to correct that concern.
As of the beginning of this year, SamTrans
offers a Day Pass, which allows riders to ride
all day, on any route, as many times as they
like, for one low fare. The Day Pass is priced
at the costs of three one-way tickets and is
available for purchase on the bus.
AC Transit, BART, Caltrain, Dumbarton
Express and VTA riders can also use tickets
from those systems to transfer to connecting
SamTrans buses at no additional charge.
Discounted tokens are another option for
riders.
Tokens offer riders a 20 percent discount
off a local ride ticket and they never expire.
Finally, if new riders nd our service to be as
easy to use and convenient as we hope they
will, they can always purchase a Monthly
Pass for unlimited rides on all SamTrans
routes at a substantial discount over the one-
way ticket cost.
SamTrans Customer Service Center repre-
sentatives are available to help riders plan
their trip call (800) 660-4287.

Ecuador protects Julian Assange
Editor,
Bravo Ecuador! They have stood up and
are being counted when it comes to protect-
ing Julian Assange and his whistle-blowing
Wikileaks efforts. In this world we need
more transparency, not less. Even though
there are sexual assault charges against him,
no one seriously believes that is actually
what is motivating the high-prole persecu-
tion of this man. Folks can rape and pillage
the world nancial system and get all sorts of
accommodations when it comes to prosecu-
tion. Just take a look at our own failure to
launch effort or lack thereof with all the
fraudsters whove shaken our economic sys-
tem. Even though Ecuador may not have the
best record on transparency themselves, they
are doing what has to be done to protect
those whove committed the ultimate sin.
Namely embarrassing the worlds sole super
power. Im shocked, literally shocked that
gambling is going on in this establishment
said Claude Raines in that great thriller,
Casablanca. Keep the faith, Ecuador.

Pricey
pandering
The (Riverside) Press-Enterprise
L
egislators should not mindlessly
ratchet up personnel costs for gov-
ernment. But a low-profile bill in
the Legislature would offer an egregious
handout to politically powerful public safe-
ty unions, at taxpayer expense. The Senate
should kill this irresponsible legislation
and if the Senate fails, the governor should
veto it.
AB 2451, by Assembly Speaker John
Perez, D-Los Angeles, would tinker with
workers compensation to effectively create
a taxpayer-funded life insurance policy for
police, firefighters and other public safety
workers. The bill is now awaiting a final
Senate vote.
Currently, when workers die from job-
related injuries, workers comp pays their
families death benefits, usually running
from $250,000 to more than $300,000. But
the law generally limits those payouts to
deaths that occur within 4 1/2 years of the
injury. AB 2451 would erase that time limit
for public safety workers, entitling their
survivors to a death benefit from job-relat-
ed health conditions regardless of when the
worker left public employment. State law
already automatically assumes that ail-
ments such as heart disease, cancer and
pneumonia, among others, are job-related
for public safety workers.
The result would be a sweeping and
nearly unlimited expansion of government-
funded death benefit payouts for one class
of employees. Under the bill, the families
of public safety workers who die, for
example, from cancer or heart disease
common late-life illnesses would
receive the taxpayer-funded death benefit,
even if they retired 25 or 30 years earlier.
And that payout would not require demon-
strating any link between job and illness.
That approach upends the whole concept
of workers compensation. Californians do
not begrudge death benefits to people who
die on the job, or from work-related caus-
es. But requiring taxpayers to fund sur-
vivor benefits on the basis that workers
deaths might somehow have been caused
by a job they left years ago stretches that
premise to the breaking point.
Nor does this largesse come cheap,
though the Legislature has downplayed that
issue. The bill bypassed the legislative
committees responsible for fiscal analysis
which should be a warning sign. The
only mention of cost at all is in an
Assembly analysis that puts the price at
potentially in the hundreds of millions of
dollars for state and local governments.
The California State Association of
Counties, however, estimates that AB 2451
would increase costs for counties alone by
$60 million a year. Creating a huge new
public expense is reckless when state and
local governments are swimming in red
ink.
Supporters of the bill argue the current
time limit on receiving the benefits is too
short for ailments, such as cancer, which
can take years to develop. But that con-
tention hardly justifies scrapping all limita-
tions on these publicly funded payouts.
Besides, state law is already exceedingly
generous to public safety workers.
The Legislature does not need to inflict
yet another fiscal disaster on California.
AB 2541 ignores public costs in the serv-
ice of political pandering and that
approach alone is reason enough to kill
this bill.

Stocks resembled summer vacationers
on Friday, rising not-too-impressively in
the morning and then mostly laying
around for the rest of the day.
Positive news from retailers was the
main reason U.S. indexes posted small
gains. Apple helped too by hitting a new
high.
Traders in both the U.S. and Europe
are on vacation, so volumes were low.
And the dog days continued for
Facebook. A 4 percent decline left it
shares at about half the price of its May
initial public offering.
The Dow Jones industrial average rose
25.09 points to close at 13,275.20. The
Standard & Poors 500 index rose 2.65
points to close at 1,418.16. The Nasdaq
rose 14.20 points to close at 3,076.59.
The modest gains put some indexes
close to their highs for the year. The
Dow is now within four points of
13,279, its high for the year set on May
1. The S&P 500 is within one point of its
four-year high set on April 1.
The Dow has now risen eight out of
the last 11 days and nished the week up
a half-percent. The Dow is sporting a
gain for the year of almost 8.7 percent
for the year, while the S&P 500 is up
almost 12.7 percent.
Next week is likely to be more event-
ful. Investors will get Chinese housing
reports, minutes from a closely-watched
Federal Reserve meeting, and jobless
claims. And Europes problems, which
were mostly off center stage in recent
days, return front-and-center as German
Chancellor Angela Merkel meets in
Berlin with Greek Prime Minister
Antonis Samaras to talk about progress
in overcoming Greeces debt crisis.
Next week, you have somebody say
something that no one expects, in thin
trading it could really move markets
around, said John Canally, investment
strategist at LPL Financial.
Strong retail earnings and outlooks
drove Fridays gains. Gap Inc. shares
rose 4.8 percent after it boosted its out-
look and posted a 29 percent jump in net
income. That suggests the operator of
Gap, Old Navy and Banana Republic
stores is nally on the way to a turn-
around.
Shares of Ann Inc., the parent of retail-
er Ann Taylor, jumped 20 percent after
its second-quarter prot rose 24 percent.
Foot Locker rose 1.7 percent after quar-
terly prots leaped 59 percent, boosted
by higher sales, cost controls and a small
tax-related gain.

Big movers
By Peter Svensson
NEW YORK Apples stock hit a
new high Friday after a four-month
swoon, as investors looked ahead to the
release of a new iPhone and possibly a
smaller iPad.
Already the worlds most valuable
company, Apple Inc. saw its stock hit
$648.19 just before closing, before
retreating to $648.11. That was up
$11.77, or 1.9 percent, from Thursdays
close.
The previous high for the stock was
$644, hit on April 10.
Apple has a market value of about
$608 billion, almost 50 percent higher
than No. 2 Exxon Mobil Corp. at $408
billion.
Apples stock fell last month after the
companys earnings report for the April-
June quarter showed the slowest growth
in more than two years. It was only the
second time in 10 years that Apple had
missed analyst expectations.
Jefferies & Co. analyst Peter Misek
raised his price target on the stock to
$900 from $800 on Friday, saying an
iPad Mini is in production in China.
His belief is based on readings of reports
from Apples suppliers, contract manu-
facturers and contacts in the region. He
now believes Apple will build 25 million
iPads of all kinds in the current quarter,
up from a previous estimate of 16 mil-
lion, which did not include the Mini.
The Cupertino company hasnt said
anything about a new iPhone or iPad.
Speculation about a smaller iPad has
been rife this year. Analysts believe
Apple wants to make a cheaper tablet
computer to counter the threat of the
Google Inc.s Nexus 7 and Amazon.com
Inc.s Kindle Fire, both of which sell for
$199. The cheapest current iPad costs
$399.
Analysts now believe the iPhone 5
will go on sale in late September, and its
widely believed that it will be the
biggest phone launch ever. Rumored
upgrades include the ability access the
latest wireless data networks in the U.S.
and a slightly bigger screen.
Apple stock hits new high
NEW YORK Facebooks stock fell
to $19 for the rst time on Friday, losing
nearly half its market value since the
companys initial public offering in May.
The stock dipped 87 cents, or 4 per-
cent, to briey hit $19, just minutes
before it closed the trading day at
$19.05. Facebooks shares ended the
week down nearly 13 percent.
Facebook hit the $19 milestone, a day
after the expiration of a lock-up period
that had previously prevented some early
investors and insiders from selling their
shares. Stakeholders who owned a com-
bined 271 million Facebook shares before
Thursday can now sell their holdings.
A breakdown of just how many major
Facebook Inc. shareholders sold their
stock this week wont be available until
next week at the earliest. Securities reg-
ulations give sellers at least three busi-
ness days before they have to disclose
such transactions.
Facebooks stock has struggled since
the companys mid-May IPO. It closed
its rst day of trading barely above its
initial offering price of $38. It has been
below that level since.
The stock has been down on 38 trad-
ing days, up on 25 days and unchanged
on one since its initial public offering.
Investors have been concerned about
the social networks ability to increase
revenue and make money from its grow-
ing mobile audience. Many analysts,
however, hold positive opinions of the
companys long-term prospects.
The least loved day is
also the markets worst
NEW YORK Its not just in your
head. Mondays really are the worst.
Monday is the only day the stock mar-
ket is more likely to fall than to rise. The
Dow Jones industrial average has been
down 10 of the past 11 Mondays. And
the two worst days in market history are
both known as Black Monday.
Theres no single reason why
Mondays are so blue. Then again, theres
no single reason the market rises or falls
on any given day, driven as it is by the
whims of traders placing millions of
individual buy and sell orders.
Some anecdotal evidence comes to
mind: Companies are prone to release
bad news on Friday nights, when fewer
people are paying attention. Monday is
the rst day investors can react.
And when companies collapse, they
often do it late Sunday or early Monday,
after spending a last weekend trying to
stay aoat. See Wachovia, Bear Stearns
and, most famously, Lehman Brothers
investment bank, on Sept. 15, 2008.
Kickstarter projects
generate millions of dollars
NEW YORK A funny thing hap-
pens on Kickstarter, the website where
people ask for money to nance their
projects. Sometimes, they get more
money than they ask for.
Sometimes, they get millions more.
In April, three-person startup Pebble
Technology sought to raise $100,000 to
make 1,000 wristwatches that can be
programmed with different clock faces.
Donors on Kickstarter showered them
with more than 100 times that amount:
$10.3 million. It would have gone high-
er had Pebble not put a cap on contribu-
tions and ended the fundraising early.
We had tried raising money through
the normal routes, and it didnt really
work, said Eric Migicovsky, the 25-
year-old founder of Pebble.
Kickstarter is the largest of dozens of
sites devoted to crowdfunding, in which
donors contribute small sums of money
to get a project off the ground.
Inventors, artists and entrepreneurs
post their projects on a Kickstarter page,
usually with a video presentation.
Facebook falls to half of public offering price

SAN DIEGO Matt Cain pitched eight
dominating innings and the San Francisco
Giants scored eight runs in the third inning to
move into rst place in the NL West with a 10-
1 win over the San Diego Padres on Friday
night.
Cain (12-5), who pitched a perfect game on
June 13, surrendered one run on four hits. The
right-hander didnt allow his rst hit until
Yonder Alonsos one-out double in the fth.
Alonso scored one out later on Everth Cabreras
single.
Cain, 6-0 in nine starts following a San
Francisco loss, struck out six and did not walk a
batter. The Giants moved one-half game ahead
of the Los Angeles Dodgers, who lost 4-3 in 11
innings at Atlanta.
Marco Scutaro homered and drove in two
runs and Angel Pagan had three hits and two
RBIs to lead the Giants 15-hit attack. All nine
San Francisco starters had at least one hit.
San Francisco played its second game since
outelder Melky Cabrera, was suspended on
Wednesday for 50 games following a positive
test for testosterone.
Scutaro hit a solo homer
in the rst inning before
San Franciscos season-
high scoring output in the
third off Ross Ohlendorf (4-
4) and reliever Nick
Mikolas.
The Giants eight runs
came on eight hits includ-
ing two doubles and a triple
two walks and a passed ball as they sent 13 bat-
ters to the plate.
Pagan had an RBI triple and a run-scoring
single in the inning. Scutaro, Pablo Sandoval,
Gregor Blanco and Cain all had RBI singles and
Hunter Spence drove in a run with a double.
Ohlendorf gave up a leadoff double in the
inning before getting an out. He then allowed
the next six batters to reach safely before get-
ting pulled for Mikolas.
Ohlendorf allowed a career-high eight runs
on six hits in 2 1-3 innings. The right-hander,
who gave up seven runs in three innings of
Sundays 11-5 loss at Pittsburgh, saw his ERA
rise from 6.41 to 7.58.
San Francisco has won 18 of the last 24 meet-
ings with the Padres.

FLYING HIGH
By Bob Baum
GLENDALE, Ariz. John Skelton made a
brief appearance in his battle with Kevin Kolb
for Arizonas starting quarterback job, just
long enough to throw the rst touchdown pass
for either player this preseason.
Skeltons 3-yard toss to a wide open
Anthony Sherman was part of a 17-point sec-
ond quarter by Arizona, and the Cardinals beat
the Oakland Raiders 31-27 on Friday night.
Skelton entered the game after Oakland
fumbled the ball away at its 23. He completed
3 of 3 passes for 23 yards.
Kolb was 3 of 3 for 22 yards in Arizonas
opening touchdown drive but was sacked in
the end zone for a safety on the Cardinals
next possession. He completed 3 of 6 passes
and was sacked three times.
Arizona coach Ken Whisenhunt said of the
quarterback situation, We didnt get a lot of
plays with John, so its hard to say.
Raiders backup quarterback and former
Cardinals starter Matt Leinart left the game in
the third quarter with a nger injury to his
right (non-throwing) hand after he took a late
hit from Arizonas Ricky Lumpkin, who was
called for a personal foul on the play.
In a matchup of teams tied at No. 23 in the
AP Pro32, Oakland had a 184-52 advantage in
yards at halftime but trailed 24-11, thanks to
two turnovers that resulted in 10 Arizona
points. Another Cardinals TD came on a
Raiders score but lose
OAKLAND Josh Donaldson hit a
tiebreaking single with the bases loaded in the
eighth inning and the Oakland Athletics ral-
lied from four runs down to beat the Cleveland
Indians 6-4 on Friday night.
Chris Carter drew a leadoff walk against
Cleveland reliever Joe Smith (7-3) and
Brandon Moss followed with a single. Pinch-
hitter Josh Reddick then blooped a single into
right field off Vinnie Pestano before
Donaldsons fourth hit of the night scored
pinch-runner Adam Rosales.
Cliff Pennington added a sacrice y to cap
the outburst for the As, who pulled within ve
games of rst-place Texas in the AL West and
a half-game of the second wild-card spot.
Shelley Duncan hit his rst career grand
slam for the Indians.
Jordan Norberto (4-1) pitched 1 2-3 innings
for the win and Grant Balfour worked the
ninth for his 10th save, capping a stellar night
for Oaklands bullpen after starter Tommy
Milone struggled.
Cleveland managed only one hit and two
baserunners following Duncans grand slam
off Milone in the fourth. Pat Neshek relieved
in the sixth and pitched 1 1-3 scoreless innings
before giving way to Norberto.
Donaldson, recalled from the minors
Tuesday, had three singles, a double and two
RBIs. It was the rst four-hit game of his
career.

NEW ORLEANS The NFL Players
Association led documents in federal court
disputing Commissioner Roger Goodells
sworn statement that he was prepared to disci-
pline players for their involvement in the
Saints bounty pool back in March but waited
until May as a courtesy to the union.
Attorneys for four players suspended in the
bounty investigation have argued the punish-
ment handed down by Goodell should be
overturned, in part because the commission-
ers public statements last spring showed he
had improperly pre-judged the players
actions.
The documents led Friday include sworn
declarations by sanctioned linebacker Scott
Fujita and union chief DeMaurice Smith.
Fujita reiterated comments he made in an
interview with The Associated Press in June in
which he described a phone conversation he
had with Goodell in March.
During our phone conversation on or about
March 20, Mr. Goodell told me that he would
be coming down hard with punishments on
Saints coaches, but that with respect to Saints
players, he was not quite sure what he had on
them, and that player pun-
ishments would therefore
take some time, Fujitas
declaration said.
U.S. District Judge
Ginger Berrigan had asked
for the league and union to
file evidence this week
related to the NFLs con-
tention that Goodell
delayed ruling on the play-
ers only because he was
asked to do so by the union while it conduct-
ed its own bounty probe.
In a declaration led Thursday, Goodell
stated he agreed in a phone conversation with
Smith to address discipline of the club and
non-player employees and then to afford the
NFLPA a reasonable opportunity to conduct
its own investigation and express its views
before I imposed discipline on the players.
Smith, however, stated in his Friday decla-
ration that while a phone conversation with
the commissioner took place, he and Goodell
never reached the agreement the commission-
er described.
The NFLPA also noted in its ling that as
late as April 24, Goodell was quoted in media
reports saying he and league investigators
have been continuing our
work investigating player
conduct, and I hope to
reach those decisions very
soon.
Goodell disciplined the
Saints, coaches and gener-
al manager Mickey
Loomis on March 21.
Head coach Sean Payton
was suspended for the
entire season, while Loomis was docked half
a season and assistant head coach Joe Vitt six
games. Former Saints defensive coordinator
Gregg Williams was suspended indenitely
for running the bounty program, which the
NFL said paid defensive players improper
cash bonuses for hits that injured opponents
from 2009 through 2011.
During the following weeks leading up to
May 2, Goodell made public comments
describing player involvement in the Saints
bounty pool, including statements that Saints
linebacker Jonathan Vilma had offered
$10,000 bounties on quarterbacks Kurt
Warner and Brett Favre during the 2009-10
playoffs.
NFL attorneys have argued that Goodell
was performing his duty to keep the public
informed on what league investigators had
uncovered information he had used to
make his judgment in the matter as the
leagues labor agreement allows.
Goodell later suspended Vilma for the entire
season, and he is currently barred from Saints
headquarters, where he was hoping to rehabil-
itate from offseason knee surgery.
Saints defensive end Will Smith has been
suspended for the rst four regular-season
games and is currently participating in the
preseason.
Two former Saints who are still active also
were suspended: Green Bay defensive end
Anthony Hargrove was penalized eight games
and Fujita, now with Cleveland, got three
games.
Vilma has asked Berrigan to grant a tempo-
rary restraining order that would allow him to
return to the Saints while his case proceeds,
and the judge has said she would be inclined
to rule in his favor because she found the
NFLs disciplinary process in the bounty mat-
ter unfair and the punishment excessive.
However, she has held off while trying to
determine if she has jurisdiction to intervene
in the NFLs collectively bargained discipli-
nary process and has urged all sides to try to
settle out of court.
NFLPA challenges Goodell over bounty case
Roger Goodell DeMaurice
Smith
By Ralph D. Russo
Joe Paterno had to be prodded by
his family to read the grand jury
report regarding Jerry Sandusky and
did not understand some of its
graphic terminology, according to a
new book.
The book, Paterno by Joe
Posnanski, was purchased Friday by
the Associated Press in advance of
its release next week.
In the book, Posnanski describes a
scene at Paternos home, two days
after Sandusky had been charged
with child sex abuse last November.
Paternos family and a close adviser
were trying to explain to the Penn
State coach that there was a growing
sentiment Paterno must have known
for years about the accusations
against Sandusky.
The book quotes Paterno as shout-
ing Im not omniscient!
Paterno did not want to read the
report, but family members and
Penn State football communications
and marketing assistant Guido
DElia insisted
that he must.
The book also
i n d i c a t e s
Paterno didnt
comprehend all
the terms in the
report, asking
his son what
sodomy meant.
According to
the book, later that night Paternos
son, Scott, told his mother that she
should brace herself for the possibil-
ity that Joe could be red.
Sue Paterno responded, Scotty,
that will kill him.
Paterno was fired by school
trustees two days later, on Nov. 9. He
died in January at age 85 of cancer.
Sandusky, Paternos longtime
defensive coordinator, is jailed and
awaiting sentencing after being con-
victed in June on 45 criminal counts
involving 10 boys.
Former Athletic director Tim
Curley and now-retired school
administrator Gary Schultz are
awaiting trial on charges of lying to
a grand jury and failing to report the
abuse allegations against Sandusky.
Paterno was not charged, though
the NCAA last month slammed his
beloved football program with a
range of tough sanctions. Among
them, the Nittany Lions were forced
to vacate 112 wins from 1998-2011,
meaning Paterno no longer has the
most coaching victories in major
college football.
The penalty seemed to grow from
a report commissioned by the school
from former FBI director Louis
Freeh. It said Paterno, Curley,
Schultz and former school president
Graham Spanier concealed allega-
tions against Sandusky dating back
to 1998. Paternos family and the
three ofcials have all vehemently
denied the conclusions.
Paterno had granted access to
Posnanski to write a biography in
2011, well before Sandusky was
charged.
Nobody would argue and cer-
tainly my book does not argue
that the good Joe Paterno did in his
life should shield him from the hor-
rors of his mistakes, Posnanski
wrote in a column for USA Today
earlier this week. Some would
argue, especially in the white-hot
emotion sparked by the latest revela-
tions, that Paternos role in the Jerry
Sandusky crimes invalidates whatev-
er good he might have done. My
book does not argue that either. My
book, I believe, lets the reader make
up his or her own mind.
The book also details the long and
frosty relationship Paterno had with
Sandusky while they worked togeth-
er at Penn State.
According to the book, the two
were never friendly and late in
Sanduskys tenure, Paterno felt the
defense was not performing well and
neither was Sandusky.
Paterno did not want to fire
Sandusky because he was so popular
in the community and with fans,
according to the book. The book
indicates that Sandusky showed
interest in taking an early retirement
in 1999, and Paterno encouraged
him to do so and let his assistant
know he would not be the next head
coach at Penn State.
Sandusky and Curley negotiated a
retirement package, and among
Sanduskys demands was to stay on
through the 1999 season.
The book indicates Paterno reluc-
tantly agreed, and then regretted the
decision when the team, which was
considered one of the national cham-
pionship favorites going into the sea-
son and reached No. 2 in the nation,
lost three games late in the year with
an underperforming defense.
Sanduskys early retirement at age
55 has led to speculation that a 1998
allegation by a boy against Sandusky
that was never prosecuted by author-
ities led to Penn State quietly push-
ing Sandusky out.
Paterno told a grand jury he was
unaware of that allegation but evi-
dence uncovered by Freeh report
investigators suggest that he did.
According to the book, Paterno,
who obsessively took and kept hand-
written notes, had no notes in his
les that mentioned the investiga-
tion.
New book sheds like on Paternos reaction to scandal
Joe Paterno
GREENSBORO, N.C. Jimmy
Walker left the booming, highlight-
reel drives to his playing partner. A low
score was good enough for him.
Walker shot an 8-under 62 on Friday
to take the lead at 12-under 128 after
two rounds in the Wyndham
Championship.
Defending champion Webb
Simpson (63) was one stroke back.
First-round leader Carl Pettersson
(68), Tim Clark (67), Sergio Garcia
(63) and rookie Harris English (64)
were at 10 under.
Tim Herron matched the tourna-
ment record with a 61, but was still
nine strokes back.
Play was halted for 1 hour, 17 min-
utes late in the day when a system of
thunderstorms passed through the cen-
tral North Carolina Triad.
Walker, who began the day four
strokes back, had eight birdies in com-
piling one of the best two-day scores in
event history. Only Pettersson at 125 in
2008 was better than Walker through
36 holes at Sedgeeld Country Club.
I was playing with J.B. (Holmes),
and he was bombing the driver every-
where, and I was just kind of bunting
the 5-wood around and hitting good
approach shots, Walker said. It was
pretty boring-looking golf not a lot
of drivers, not a lot of 3-woods.
Theres a lot of 5-woods and some
irons, and its just kind of placement
around the golf course.
Walker hopes his strong round
proves that hes getting back to the
form from earlier this year, when the
winless 33-year-old Texan nished in
the top 10 in three of his rst six tour-
naments.
Things went south when he tore his
left meniscus, so instead of going to
the U.S. Open, he went to the doctor
for a cortisone shot to reduce the
swelling.

But Uganda has still drawn vocal fans who
cheered wildly, especially after Daniel Alios
towering home run to center in the sixth. He
showed off a methodical homer trot that
would have made David Ortiz proud.
I thought I wouldnt hit a home run, the
soft-spoken Alio said. But my coach told me
to make contact.
Canada, Texas and Indiana also won Friday
Day 2 of the youth baseball marathon.
Alio and his teammates, though, were the
biggest stars. Manager Henry Odong said
theyre proud to represent Africa, where base-
ball is an emerging sport but not nearly as
popular as soccer.
The rest of Africa is behind us, Odong
said in recounting his message to players after
early struggles at the plate. People are watch-
ing ... just make contact.
Its been a special month already for
Uganda sports after Stephen Kiprotich won
gold in the mens marathon race at the London
Olympics.
No record crowds this year, unlike the tens
of thousands who showed up each night in
2011 to root on Keystone kids from nearby
Clinton County.
But the locals seemed to have taken to the
scrappy Uganda team that is also one of the
more popular squads at the Little League
dorms. Third baseman Ronald Olaa has
already developed a reputation as one of the
top ping pong players in the rec room.
Friday was all about baseball.
They managed just three hits. They commit-
ted four errors.
But they had their share of highlights, too,
like Alios homer.
Or Alio backpedaling into short right to
make a tough catch on a high popup.
Or pitcher Tonny Okello making a lunging
catch of a weak popup on the rst-base line
while trying to avoid the runner.
Not a bad start at all considering this team is
used to playing back home on old soccer elds
strewn with pebbles and the occasional anthill.
Ugandas coaches hope their trip to the
series and the experience playing before large
crowds helps build more interest in baseball
back home, where soccer is the dominant
sport.
This is the biggest crowd that we have ever
seen, Odong said. I told them that no one
even cares what we were doing in rooting for
the team.
Panamas pint-sized players had their own
treat Friday when injured Phillies All-Star
catcher Carlos Ruiz visited the team from his
native country.
He encouraged them to have fun but to work
hard on the diamond. Looks like they listened.
Ruiz said major leaguers always pay atten-
tion to the Little League World Series. Marlins
first baseman Carlos Lee, who is from
Aguadulce, has been calling the Little League
team as well.
Starter Julio Goff struck out seven and
allowed just a hit over 2 2-3 innings in draw-
ing the tough starting assignment.
Pitching here against Uganda, with that
crowd, it made it very hard, Goff said through
interpreter Antonio Gonzalez, but thank God
that we won.
Panama spoils Ugandas World Series debut
STOCKHOLM Olympic champion
Sanya Richards-Ross edged Botswanas
Amantle Montsho to win the womens 400
meters at the DN Gala Diamond League meet-
ing on Friday.
Richards-Ross moved in front of Montsho
down the stretch and nished in 49.89 sec-
onds. Montsho clocked 50.03, with Britains
Christine Ohuruogu taking third in 50.77.
I feel good. Coming back for a race like
this after the Olympics, you can feel physical-
ly and emotionally drained, Richards-Ross
said. But it went pretty well. And the atmos-
phere was fantastic.
American countryman Michael Tinsley also
picked up a victory, beating Olympic champi-
on Felix Sanchez in the 400-meter hurdles in
48.50 seconds. Dominican Sanchez nished
0.43 behind while Jamaican Leford Green
was third in 48.97.
I think its pretty good to get your legs
going after the Olympics,
Tinsley said. There is a
lot of physical and mental
stress going into the
Olympics, so its nice to
come out and relax and
run.
Sanchez, who only
arrived in Stockholm from
his home country on
Friday, felt he couldnt
have done much better
under the circumstances.
My legs are really tired and I didnt get out
well at all, he said. My stride pattern was all
messed up, so I was happy to come second. I
havent been in Stockholm for 24 hours. My
body is on auto-pilot right now.
Olympic triple jump champion Christian
Taylor of the United States managed 18.72
yards to win his event. Ukraines Sheryf El
Sheryf was second, and Russian Lyukman
Adams took third.
It went wonderful today, Taylor said. My
hopes were high and every time I compete I
try to go over that 17-meter barrier...
Obviously Im on a high from the Olympic
Games and I am just so blessed to have a won-
derful coach, and winning this has been the
icing on the cake.
Shot put star Valerie Adams, coming off the
New Zealanders second Olympic gold in
London, dominated her event, throwing 22.16
yards. Russian Yevgenia Kolodko was second
with her 20.87-yard throw, while Germanys
Christina Schwanitz was third.
The goal was to win today, thats always
the goal, Adams said. I wanted to throw
more but after the drama thats gone on over
the last seven days its been pretty hard to get
back up. So Im happy with the win.
Croatias Olympic discus champion Sandra
Perkovic set a new meeting record, winning
her event with a 75.23-yard throw. Russian
Darya Pischalnikova was second and German
Nadine Muller third.
American Charonda Williams won the 200
meters in 22.82 seconds, followed by country-
woman Bianca Knight (22.86) and Ukraines
Mariya Ryemyen (22.94). Olympic champion
Allyson Felix was not in the eld.
In the womens 3,000 meter steeplechase,
Olympic champion Yuliya Zaripova of Russia
clocked a sparkling time of 9:05.2. Tunisian
Habiba Ghribi was second (9:10.36) and
Ethiopian Etenesh Diro Neda third (9:14.07).
American Ryan Bailey won the mens 100
meter race in 9.93 seconds. Jamaicans Nesta
Carter and Michael Frater nished second and
third respectively, but failed to dip below the
10-second mark.
2008 Olympic champion Dawn Harper won
the womens 100 meter hurdles, nishing in
12.65 seconds, ahead of fellow American
Kellie Wells (12.76) and Bulgarian Alina
Talay (12.79).
Richards-Ross continues her winning ways

Armstrong, USADA argue over jurisdiction in case
NEW YORK Lance Armstrong and the U.S. Anti-Doping
Agency are exchanging written arguments in federal court about
who has jurisdiction in the drug case against the seven-time Tour de
France winner.
USADA charged Armstrong in June with using performance-
enhancing drugs throughout his career. Armstrong sued in federal
court in Austin, Texas, to block the case, claiming USADAs rules
violate athletes constitutional right to a fair trial.

Douglas, McKayla Maroney, Kyla Ross and Aly Raisman gave
the United States its rst Olympic team title in womens gym-
nastics since 1996.
Douglas also won the womens all-around individual gym-
nastics competition.
They insist theyre not tired or homesick, despite going weeks
before making their way home late this week. Wieber says she
has jammed pretty much everything she owns into four suitcas-
es, including her own pillow, and hasnt looked back.
Weve been having so much fun the past few days, agreed
Douglas, who has Tweeted photos of herself meeting Nicki
Minaj, Karmin and Nick Cannon, and also has savored online
congratulations from Justin Bieber and Taylor Swift. She shared
a couch with rst lady Michelle Obama on Tonight with Jay
Leno.
She is still waiting for her invitation to appear on The
Vampire Diaries, hands-down her favorite TV show. Wieber?
Shed like a little gig on Teen Wolf.
Douglas and Wieber are still girls, and they acknowledge not
being fully prepared for all the attention and publicity theyve
received over the past few weeks. Douglas is 16, and Wieber 17.
I dont think anyone expected this. ... I didnt expect this,
said Wieber, of DeWitt, Mich.
Instead of making back-to-school plans for the fall, theyre
gearing up for the 40-city Kelloggs Tour of Gymnastics
Champions.
Not many 17-year-old girls get to do this, so I dont feel like
were missing much, Wieber said.
Douglas, who lives and is home schooled in Des Moines,
Iowa, to be near her coaches most of the time, would just like to
have time to do a little light gymnastics training in the interim
before the tour and maybe try a CrossFit conditioning work-
out that emphasizes endurance and cardio. We all want to stay
in shape, she said.
On Thursday, they were doing their latest round with journal-
ists at Manhattans swanky Surrey Hotel off Madison Avenue.
There were publicists, makeup artists, photographers and fami-
ly members all over the penthouse suite as Douglas and Wieber
talked up the products they use as P&G Beauty spokeswomen.
(Pantene Pro-V shampoo and conditioner for Douglas; Olay
facial cleansing wipes for Wieber.)
During the Olympics, they did their own hair and makeup for
all the competitions and those millions of photos. As a team,
sometimes theyd critique themselves, Douglas said, deciding
the next day to lighten up on the eyeliner or wear more blush.
But they didnt pay much attention to any critics of their appear-
ance even as Douglas slicked back half pony-tail became the
talk of the Olympics.
Douglas, who on Thursday wore her hair loose and owy, said
while she loved the transformation the pros give to their look,
she, Wieber and their teammates decided they sort of like it bet-
ter when they do it themselves.
Sometimes, Douglas said, it just looks a little bit more like
us.
GYMNASTS
The As also got an emotional lift from Reddick, their leading
home run hitter who was not in the starting lineup after under-
going a second dental procedure earlier in the day.
Yoenis Cespedes had two hits, Pennington added two RBIs
and Moss scored twice to help the As win for the 10th time in
21 games following a 16-2 run in July.
Cleveland dropped to 1-3 on its nine-game road trip. The
Indians fell to 10-24 since the All-Star break, the worst mark in
the AL.
It didnt start out so bad for manager Manny Actas club.
Carlos Santana walked leading off the rst and went to second
when Cespedes misplayed Michael Brantleys y ball to left for
an error. Jason Donald followed with a single to load the bases
before Duncan hit a 3-2 pitch from Milone into the stands above
the left-eld scoreboard.
It was Duncans 11th home run this season but only his fourth
hit in August. The designated hitter went into the game batting
.107 this month.
Cleveland starter Zach McAllister, who began the season with
Triple-A Columbus, couldnt make the four-run lead hold up.
The right-hander had six strikeouts and one walk but pitched
with runners on base in every inning.
He gave up an RBI double to Donaldson in the fourth and the
As pulled within 4-2 when Moss scored on Derek Norris
grounder. Pennington followed with a two-out single to drive in
Donaldson.
Oakland tied it in the fth when Cespedes doubled, stole third
and scored on Carters sacrice y.
Milone struck out six and walked one. He is winless in his last
ve starts and has a 7.13 ERA during that span.
NOTES: Norris, Oaklands catcher, was hit in the back of the
head on Santanas follow-through in the rst but remained in the
game. ... Several members of the As 2002 team were on hand.
The franchise is celebrating the 10th anniversary of Oaklands
20-game winning streak, which was the subject of the movie
Moneyball.
ATHLETICS
blocked punt as Arizona won for the rst time in three presea-
son games.
Arizonas Justin Bethel, a sixth-round draft pick out of
Presbyterian College (enrollment 1,200), blocked the punt and
returned it 19 yards for a touchdown. He later blocked an extra
point.
Carson Palmer played the rst half for Oakland, completing
13 of 24 passes for 107 yards. He was intercepted once.
Darren McFadden ran nine times for 34 yards for the Raiders
(0-2), who scored their rst touchdown of the preseason when
Lonyae Miller ran in from the 1-yard line against the Arizona
reserves in the third quarter.
Rookie Eddy Carmona kicked a 52-yard eld goal for
Oakland after Sebastian Janikowski booted three eld goals
and called it a night.
The Cardinals Ryan Williams, the second-year pro playing
for the rst time since tearing his right patella tendon in the pre-
season a year ago, rushed ve times for 25 yards, including a
3-yard touchdown run.
I cant even lie, I was so nervous, Williams said. I felt like
I was six years old again playing Pop Warner.
Oakland running back Mike Goodson, who fumbled the ball
away twice, left later in the second quarter with a chest injury.
Arizona starting left tackle Levi Brown was sidelined in the
second quarter with a triceps injury. Raiders wide receiver
Jacoby Ford also left early with a foot injury.
Bethels blocked punt return capped Arizonas 17-point sec-
ond quarter.
Moments later, Goodson fumbled, and Stewart Bradley
recovered for Arizona at the Raiders 23. Skelton threw 11
yards to Todd Heap on his rst play, connected with Rob
Housler for 8 yards, and then tossed to Sherman for the touch-
down.
King boomed a 71-yard punt early in the game, but Patrick
Peterson, who returned four punts for touchdowns as a rookie
last season, returned it 46 yards to the Raiders 41. Kolb com-
pleted all three attempts for 22 yards, and Williams carried four
times for 19, including a 15-yarder to the Oakland 5.
Two Oakland turnovers resulted in 10 rst-half points for the
Cardinals. First, Palmer overthrew intended receiver Darrius
Heyward-Bey, and Kerry Rhodes intercepted, returning it 66
yards to the Oakland 5 to set up Jay Feelys 32-yard eld goal.
On Arizonas second possession, Kolb was called for inten-
tional grounding, pushing the ball back to the Cardinals 1. On
the next play, Tommy Kelly broke through to sack Kolb for a
safety.
Following the subsequent free kick, the Raiders drove to the
Arizona 23, and Janikowskis 40-yarder gave the Raiders their
rst lead of the preseason, 8-5.
Arizona rookie quarterback Ryan Lindley was stripped of the
ball from the blind side by Carl Ihenacho, and Hall Davis
scooped it up. Davis staggered across the goal line for the
touchdown that tied it 24-24 with 39 seconds left in the third
quarter.
Lindleys 30-yard pass to DeMarco Sampson set up William
Powells 9-yard touchdown run that put Arizona back on top
31-24 with 11:25 to play.

Reading for the
sake of reading
By Carly Bertolozzi
A
s a student entering my
12th year of school, I
have read my fair share of
poems, essays, speeches and, of
course, novels. However, I cannot
seem to recall a single piece of lit-
erature that was not accompanied
by an assign-
ment due the
next day, week
or even month;
a large reason
why the love of
reading in high
school has been
greatly dimin-
ished.
In freshman year, my peers and I
were assigned Night by Elie
Wiesel. It recalls the struggles of a
boy who was brutalized, dehuman-
ized and tortured within the
cramped walls of Auschwitz. After
arriving at the conclusion of the
story, we were to pull quotations
from the text and analyze how
Wiesel formatted his words to con-
vey the emotions his characters felt.
Sometimes, even before reading
the text, we were expected to com-
plete an assignment. Sophomore
year was when my classmates and I
collaborated on a slideshow reveal-
ing the details of William
Shakespeares life; this assignment
was designed to arm us with an
understanding of the life who
scribed our next adventure through-
out the pages, which was Othello.
Before junior year even began,
my fellow AP English, language
and composition classmates and I
were directed to purchase and read
the majority of the content of 100
Great Essays. It included many
well-known pieces of work, such as
By John Kosik
Youve just planted a surveillance
bug on orders from your superior
ofcer. As you sneak away you
receive a text message. Your con-
nection at the chop shop needs a
high-end sports coupe. You spot the
car and tear the driver from the front
seat, kicking him in the midsection
before speeding off to claim your
money.
The line between hero and villain
is wonderfully blurred in the action
role-playing game Sleeping Dogs
(Square Enix for the Xbox 360,
PlayStation 3, $59.99; for PC,
$49.99).
As undercover mole Wei Shen
you are tasked with inltrating the
Sun On Yee triad in a ctionalized
and fantastically rendered version
of Hong Kong. This simple premise
sets up a series of moral dilemmas:
Can you push yourself to the limit
to gain trust and rise in the triads
hierarchy? Or will you waver and
risk blowing your cover?
Sleeping Dogs is played in the
traditional over-the-shoulder view
of similar sandbox games such as
Grand Theft Auto and Saints
Row. While I could stoop to calling
this a GTA clone the similari-
ties are legion the uid combat, a
few nice touches in the shooting
mechanic and the exotic locale help
it stand out quite a bit.
Finding the right balance to help
the story progress is key, and the
great voice acting including Tom
Wilkinson and Emma Stone, among
Sleeping Dogs has some bite

The stop-motion animated
ParaNorman unfolds tragically: So
much drawing for such an unworthy
script.
The labor necessary to create a lm
like ParaNorman is colossal. Tens
of thousands of facial expressions
were drawn. 3-D printers (a new
advancement in stop motion pio-
neered here) ran through 3.8 metric
tons of printer powder. One scene
alone took a year to shoot.
So its tempting to applaud the 3-D
ParaNorman politely, sympatheti-
cally simply because of the
admirable work. No one wants to
tell 60 puppet makers that their
months of toil were ill spent.
But though ParaNorman is
impressively crafted, the frequently
wondrous and whimsical visuals far
surpass the disappointingly slipshod
story of an 11-year-old boy named
Norman (voiced by Kodi Smit-
McPhee) who can see and speak to
the dead.
While stop-motion animation has
largely gone out of favor with the rise

of computer animation, the Portland-
based studio LAIKA has carried the
flame. The studio, which is owned by
Nike founder Phil Knight and run by
his son, Travis Knight (a producer on
ParaNorman), previously made
2009s Coraline.
ParaNorman bears some of the
same fantasy-horror spirit of
Coraline, which was based on Neil
Gaimans novella. It also has some of
the elements of the British studio
Aardman Animations (Wallace and
Gromit); ParaNorman is directed by
Sam Fell (who co-directed Aardmans
Flushed Away) and Chris Butler,
who also wrote it.
With a thick forest of rigidly spiked
brown hair, Norman appears as if in
perpetual fright. But he greets the para-
normal with casual familiarity, talking
to his grandmother (Elaine Stritch)
while they watch TV and greeting
invisible passersby while he walks
down a seemingly empty street.
Hes an avid horror film watcher
with zombie posters in his bedroom
and a cell phone ringtone of the
Friday the 13th theme. His parents
(Jeff Garlin, Leslie Mann) and older
sister (Anna Kendrick) have little
patience for Normans eccentricities
and the kids in school call him
Abnorman and worse.
Norman is contacted by his uncle
Prenderghast (John Goodman) who
shares Normans gift. He tells him that
the myth of their town, Blithe Hollow
that it was cursed by a witch 300
years ago is true, and that its now
Normans duty to keep her at bay with
a ritual.
Prederghast, who promptly croaks,
also appears to Norman from the bow-
els of a school toilet. Its the scene that
took a year to shoot, and its when
ParaNorman is at its best: brilliantly
textured, comical and bizarre.
After Norman fails in the ritual, he
and an improvised gang his round
redhead friend Neil (Tucker Albrizzi),
Neils hunky and dimwitted older
brother (Casey Affleck), a bully who
resembles the one that preyed on
Calvin from Calvin and Hobbes (Alex
Borstein), and Normans sister flee
from a septet of zombies, with much
shrieking and plan making.
The running around town takes up
what feels like two thirds of the film,
robbing ParaNorman of pace and set-
ting it on a tiresome and frantic trajec-
tory before enough character develop-
ment has taken place. Some awkward
rhythm and poor sound design (outside
of the score by Jon Brion) also prevent
ParaNorman from the smoothness of
a major studio animated film.
The setup is promising and film has
its charms Norman responds to a
demand to swear! with hesitance:
Like, the F-word? but it never
quite finds its tone, and sometimes
seems lucky to have avoided a PG-13
rating.
ParaNorman, blessed with other-
worldly animation, cant escape the
demons of story.
ParaNorman, a Focus Features
release, is rated PG for scary action
and images, thematic elements, some
rude humor and language. Running
time: 92 minutes. Two stars out of four.
NORMAN
Martin Luther King Jr.s I have a
dream speech as well as Platos
Allegory of the Cave, that proved
very interesting. For every essay read,
we were to answer five questions per-
taining to the authors motives, liter-
ary devices and so forth.
However, Mr. Hill, an AP literature
teacher who instructs seniors, sur-
prised the incoming class.
Out of pure passion for the novels
that the soon-to-be seniors typically
received at the end of their junior
year, Hill petitioned the other AP liter-
ature teachers and granted us the priv-
ilege to read the novels without the
accompaniment of quotation analysis,
presentations or inquiries designed to
test our comprehension. We were sim-
ply asked to read.
The summer reading books Hill
feels so passionate about are Jane
Eyre by Charlotte Bronte and Wide
Sargasso Sea by Jean Rhys classic
stories that many of the people sur-
rounding you have either heard of or
read themselves.
To be able to sit down and hold a
book you are enjoying with both
hands, instead of attempting to hold
the book with one hand and take notes
with the other, is a great feeling.
However, reading novels such as Jane
Eyre or Wide Sargasso Sea is far
less common than it once was.
In high school, I must be honest, a
teacher must provide work to go along
with text, otherwise the text will not
be read. Today, students complete
much more work than required of oth-
ers in the past and, in my opinion, the
effects of this workload is tragic. With
the workload today, to be successful
in school, students need to prioritize.
And if there is no worksheet being
collected as homework the next day
that required knowledge of the text,
you better believe the piece of litera-
ture assigned has just dropped to the
bottom of the priority list.
The way I see it, there is a problem
here. Homework means less enjoy-
ment of the novel. No homework
means that a large percentage of the
time the reading simply will not be
completed. As of right now, students
are not being encouraged enough to
read and appreciate literature.
Nowadays, it is hard for an autobi-
ography that may take countless hours
to finish to compete with Twitter.
It is difficult for a sonnet to over-
come a song on iTunes.
It is challenging for a fiction novel
to appear more colorful than a movie
in 3-D.
But, were a love for reading taught,
more would be able to enjoy the com-
plexity of a persons life detailed in
140 pages rather than 140 characters,
more would be able to hear the
stressed and unstressed syllables in a
poets flow of words instead of the
beat of a drum, and more would be
able to paint mental scenes of mystical
creatures or undiscovered lands rather
than have them popping out in your
face.
With the fast-paced society that
most of us now live in, a love for
reading is not something that always
comes naturally, but needs to be
taught.
Of course, there are exceptions to
the rule but, for the most part, like in
almost anything in life, we must be
taught how to do something before we
are capable of repeating it, and hope-
fully turning it into a life-long routine.

others and a solid script keep you engaged through a few
clever twists and turns. Wei Shens moral ambiguity and his
personal stake in taking down the Sun On Yee begin to weigh
on him as the game moves forward, making him one of the
more well-drawn characters in the genre.
The role-playing elements consist of upgrades that fall under
both police and triad skill trees. The more police tasks you
complete, the more experience you gain to improve those
skills; the same for triad tasks. This design forces you to
choose certain skills at the expense of others, but you also need
to maintain balance to throw off suspicion on both ends.
Completing minor tasks builds your Face meter, which
determines how people respond to you and earns you passive
abilities such as hints on the minimap and a lackey who will
bring you a car whenever you want. Increasing your face level
unlocks new apparel and vehicles, giving you great incentive
to bolster your street cred and bag that sweet ride.
You can travel to various martial arts schools scattered
throughout the city to ght, join the street racing circuit or just
drive around listening to one of several radio stations. Kerrang
Radio, featuring British alt-rock, was my personal favorite.
There is money to be earned betting on cockghts, and you
can visit a massage parlor to, um, ease the tension. (Yes, this
game is rated Mature.) And then theres a hysterical karaoke
minigame: Lets just say theres nothing like a heavily tattooed

ing the choice again, I would have gone
to culinary school, Kaufman said.
Rugelach (pronounced rug-a-la)
dates back to very old traditional baking
done in Eastern Europe, Kaufman said,
and people brought their recipes to
America when they immigrated. Its still
popular today on the East Coast because
theres a larger Jewish population and
more of a Jewish deli scene, which
isnt as present in Northern California,
she said.
Kaufmans rst attempt at a rugelach
business was about 25 years ago when
she changed careers and started a cater-
ing company out of her home, and came
to focus more on baking and rugelach
exclusively. She chose rugelach because,
at the time, single-item companies like
Mrs. Fields were becoming more popu-
lar, she said, and the rugelach shed
found in the area wasnt like she remem-
bered.
If youre going to make a business
out of this, maybe instead of trying to be
good at everything just try to be good at
one thing, Kaufman said.
But Kaufman didnt use a generations-
old family recipe for her rugelach. She
found a recipe she liked and tweaked it
until it was just right. The pastry is made
from cream cheese, butter and our and
can have a variety of sweet llings.
Unfortunately, though she said the
rugelach was catching on, the business
proved to be too difcult for Kaufman in
the late 1980s. She didnt have a strong
business background, she said, and had
to do everything on her own. At the same
time, she was a mother with two small
children. Kaufman gave the business up
after about a year and, a few years later,
she went back to working in architec-
ture.
Nevertheless, Kaufman didnt gave up
rugelach altogether. She kept baking it
over the years because people asked for
it, she said, and eventually began selling
it. It became a seasonal business under
the radar, she said, and one holiday sea-
son she baked 1,000 of the treats in her
kitchen.
Everyone was saying, Oh youve
just gotta get this out there, no ones
making really good rugelach around
here, Kaufman said.
Then three years ago, fate handed
Kaufman another twist when she was
laid off from her job in architecture. And
she seized the opportunity and started
the business up again as Debbies
Rugelach.
She was starting from scratch,
Kaufman said, so her business didnt
take off right away. The business world
had changed since the 1980s, she said,
and an online presence like a website
and a Facebook page is necessary. But
Kaufman also had a lot more help this
time around. She had a business partner
now, and got help from her family with
social networking and the business
website.
Pretty much everyone in the family is
involved, Kaufman said. There really
is a lot of love involved in this.
Debbies Rugelach rst started selling
in coffee shops around the Peninsula,
and then expanded to San Francisco.
Today, Kaufmans rugelach is in more
than 20 Bay Area coffee shops, cafes and
grocery stores. Recently, the business
has started selling in a coffee shop out-
side of the Bay Area, which Kaufman
said is very exciting. Debbies
Rugelach sells three avors: traditional
walnut currant, chocolate chip and apri-
cot.
Since rugelach is a more ethnic prod-
uct, the Jewish community is Kaufmans
main target.
They know what it is, and for a lot of
them, when they taste it, it reminds them
of their grandmothers, and thats such a
great compliment, Kaufman said.
Kaufman said she also spends half her
time educating people about rugelach
because they arent familiar with it.
Debbies Rugelach is also available at
the San Mateo and Burlingame farmers
markets, and thats been the best tool for
marketing and giving people informa-
tion, she said. Customers can also buy
Kaufmans rugelach through the web-
site. They ship all over the country,
Kaufman said, and have even shipped as
far as Hawaii.
At this point, the business is focusing
more on getting their name out rather
than the number of products sold, but
Kaufman said theres no comparison
between how well her business was
doing when she rst tried 25 years ago
and how it is today.
Were definitely operating in the
black, but its not paying our bills yet,
Kaufman said.
Despite baking now being her job,
Kaufman is still passionate about it. The
artist in her still wants to make a great
presentation with her product, she said,
and shes a foodie through and
through.
But she never expected to be where
she is now, Kaufman said. For years
shed been stuck in a job that wasnt her
calling but paid her bills, and shed
probably still be in architecture if she
hadnt been laid off, she said.
The artisan baked goods business is
very competitive today and rugelach is
expensive and labor-intensive to pro-
duce, Kaufman said, so you have to
be pretty savvy to make this business
work. The economy was down when
she first started Debbies Rugelach,
but shes more hopeful at this point.
In the future there may be plans to
expand Debbies Rugelach to include
other items, but right now the focus is
to put rugelach on the map,
Kaufman said. And so far it seems to
be working.
We keep feeling the response and
the kudos that we get from people are
so amazing that were just going to keep
going forward, Kaufman said.
RUGELACH
Today in America contacted the city
last month, Nantell wrote in the staff
report. Since then, both he and Deal have
had conversations with the shows staff.
Previously, Burlingame has worked with
the Chamber of Commerce and a local
Realtor to produce promotional videos.
Finishing that project could require an esti-
mated $2,500 to $5,000 contribution from
the city, Nantell wrote. Staff has been hes-
itant to move forward without clarity on
how and where such videos would be
used.
In discussing the Today in America
proposal, although it is ve times more
expensive than the locally produced video,
given the fact that it would be hosted by
Terry Bradshaw, a well-known former
NFL quarterback, it may attract more
attention from potential viewers, Nantell
wrote.
Posting such a video online, he contin-
ued, would most likely generate more hits
than a longer, locally-produced segment.
Regarding whether its a scam, Nantells
report poses the question: is a ve-minute
promotional video worth $20,000? If so,
he wrote, it would not be classied as a
scam.
Deal doesnt consider it a scam adding
the company was upfront about the costs.
At the same meeting, the council will
consider approving the 2011-12 report
from the Burlingame Avenue Area
Business Improvement District and state
the intent to establish the levy rates for the
upcoming scal year.
The council meets 7 p.m. Monday, Aug.

SATURDAY, AUGUST 18, 2012
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Avoid making any promises
or relying on the vows of others. Its much smarter to
stand on your own two feet and let everybody else
do the same.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- A supportive attitude
could do wonders in promoting goodwill and coopera-
tion between you and someone whose help you need.
You wont be able to get until youre willing to give.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Treating the problems of
your colleagues indifferently will draw similar treat-
ment from others. Conversely, a caring attitude will
do wonders.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Humility is one of the
best tools you can use for making a good impression
on others. Tooting your own horn or exaggerating,
however, will produce just the opposite.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Instead of mak-
ing up an excuse when things are going wrong for
another, try to fnd a kind way to help the person out.
Later, you wont have to worry about what you said
to whom.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Be generous to
others, but be careful not to carry it too far. If you do,
you could make a promise that you truly cant afford,
and get yourself in a whole lot of trouble.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- In order to appease
you, someone might make you a promise that youll
take to heart but he or she wont be able to keep.
Dont put all your eggs in one basket.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Theres a good chance
that something youve been counting on wont come
through. If its just the timing thats off, youll still get
whats promised, but itll come later.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Dont waste your time
joining a social clique that contains people who make
you feel uncomfortable. Hang out with pals who
welcome you and put you at ease.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Youre asking for disap-
pointment if your hopes and expectations are totally
unreasonable. Operate within parameters that are
practical and achievable.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Dont be indifferent or
careless, hoping everything will fall into place all on
its own. Attention to detail will be extremely impor-
tant in helping you make the right choices.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- It behooves you to
pay attention to any clever idea that you and/or an
associate come up with. It might not be perfect, but
there could be enough there to work with.
