In a rare move, the Belmont City Council Tuesday unanimously approved a new zoning designation to preserve its open space portion of the San Juan Hills. The council directed city staff in September to amend the original zoning designation of the properties to reect its desire to keep its section of the hills as dedicated open space. Consequentially an
entirely new zoning classification was required. The citys Community Development Director Carlos de Melo presented his research and proposal at Tuesdays City Council meeting. Its very rare that the city creates a brandnew zoning district, de Melo said. The ordinance establishing Open SpacePublic zoning district was immediately attached to the citys remaining acres of the San Juan Hills. The initiative came after Belmont took
out a $1.5 million loan from itself to purchase 35 acres in the valley from the U.S. Marshals Service in 2009. It was able to recoup its investment after the sale of eight acres for $2 million earlier in the month. The city put a condition of the sale that the owners designate six of their acres back as open space. When rst purchased, the citys portion was classied as hillside residential and open space and the surrounding privatelyowned lots are zoned as both hillside resi-
dential and open space or single family residential. The Open Space-Public designation is extremely unique as it doesnt allow for any residential developments; even its agricultural zone allows for a single residential home, Councilman Dave Warden said. Jeanette Sacco-Belli, member of the Friends of San Juan Canyon, said she is thankful for the environmentally-con-
A21-year-old transient grabbed a woman crossing the San Mateo Caltrain station stairs to the other side of the tracks and covered her mouth before she was able to ght her way free on Sunday night, according to prosecutors. The woman spotted Fernando Chamale-Boch standing in a dark hallway as she approached the stairwell about 7 p.m. Oct. 20 and turned to go back up, according to the District Attorneys Ofce. Chamale-Boch reportedly grabbed her by the waist, blocking her mouth as she screamed, and pulled her 6 feet down the stairs as she punched and scratched at his face. The woman was able to get away and call 911 . Responding ofcers found Chamale-Boch later that night and reported him having scratches on his face. The woman also identied Chamale-Boch as her attacker. He denied any involvement. Prosecutors charged Chamale-Boch with kidnapping with the intent of rape, assault with the intent to rape, false imprisonment and battery. At his initial arraignment, he requested a court-appointed attorney and put off a plea to the charges until Nov. 5 when he can identify his lawyer. Judge Stephen Hall set bail at $2 million and ChamaleBoch remains in custody.
Pedestrians have more room to roam on certain blocks of Burlingame Avenue as work is completed on a $16.5 million streetscape project.
The 1200 block of Burlingame Avenue opened with new renovations for both pedestrians and cars in September and city ofcials say they are seeing more positive feedback about the Burlingame Avenue Streetscape project. Work is currently being conducted
on Burlingame Avenue between Park and Primrose roads on both the north and south sides of Burlingame Avenue. Both lanes are currently closed to vehicle trafc there. The 1300 block of Burlingame Avenue between Park and Primrose roads will be closed to vehicular trafc until late November and will reopen before Thanksgiving. Syed Murtuza, Burlingames public works director, said the construction
has been coming along very well and is on track to nish on time. The project is expected to be completed by the end of the summer 2014.

crash at San Francisco International Airport has left the hospital after 15 weeks and 30 surgeries to recover from critical wounds she suffered in the commercial air disaster this summer. San Francisco General Hospital spokeswoman Rachael Kagan said Wednesday that the patient, whose family has asked that her name not be released, was moved to a rehabilitation center Tuesday. Shes a real save. Thats what we call it when things go well. She was smiling when she left. It was a beautiful sight, said a written statement from surgeon Dr. Margaret Knudson, who performed 21 of the surgeries. In all, 304 of the 307 people aboard the plane survived the July 6 crash when the airliner slammed into a seawall at the end of the runway. The impact ripped off the back of the plane, tossed out three ight attendants and their seats and scattered pieces of the jet across the runway as it spun and skidded to a stop. Three Chinese teens died; one during the crash, a second was run over by a re truck on the tarmac, and a third later died in the hospital.

Tool thief sentenced
A 25-year-old tool thief who hid from police inside a Belmont home next to its frightened occupant after eeing in May was sentenced to four years in prison. Mitchell James Borden faced up to four years in prison Mitchell after pleading Borden no contest to felony counts of possessing stolen property, residential burglary and false imprisonment. At sentencing, Borden said he needs help and will do anything just to get the help, said District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe. At the time of his arrest, Borden had three pending arrest warrants. Judge Barbara Mallach imposed the maximum at the urging of prosecutors with credit of 198 days earned while in custody on $75,000 bail. Belmont police arrested Borden May 4 after he wedged open a storage unit at a Village Court apartment complex shortly after 9 a.m., stole tools and ran from a yelling neighbor. Borden reportedly bailed out of the getaway car in the parking lot of a convalescent home, leaving his girlfriend inside with the stolen tools, while he ed over a fence and inside an unlocked home. Inside, he told a 44-year-old woman working on her computer he was running from police because of drunk driving and told her not to alert authorities. The frightened woman sat quietly until Borden reached toward her and police found him, according to prosecutors.
A convicted sex offender is mentally competent to stand trial for allegedly ashing a mother and child at a Christmas tree lot and, while out on bail four months later, reportedly harassing several San Bruno children, according to a majority of doctors who evaluated him. Two court-appointed doctors were divided in their assessment of Allan Wayne Meaney. A third, however, tipped the scale to a nding of competency which reinstated criminal proceedings against the 67-year-old man and put him back on track for trial Jan. 27.
Meaney has pleaded not guilty to charges in both cases including indecent exposure, hit-andrun and child annoyance. In the first Allan Meaney case, a woman reported spotting Meaney grabbing himself through an open zipper Dec. 1, 2012, at a Colma Christmas tree lot where she was shopping with her 6-year-old daughter. The woman screamed, Meaney ran and reportedly crashed
his car while eeing. He posted bail and was free in April 2013 when a father called San Bruno police to report him lingering near children playing soccer. When the father of one child questioned Meaney about his presence, he reportedly said he was looking for somebody named Jim and continued returning to the location each time he was told to leave. The last time, he reportedly agged down a 9-year-old girl in a school uniform whom was asked four to ve times if she had a boyfriend, according to the District Attorneys Ofce. Meaney has several prior con-
victions for sexual abuse against children and was once detained at a state facility as a mentally disordered sex offender, a label that has since been replaced by the term sexually violent predator. He faces a third strike and possible 25 years to life imprisonment if convicted in the ashing incident. Meaneys defense attorney raised a doubt about his clients competency in July. Meaney remains in custody on $500,000 bail in the rst case and $125,000 for the second. He returns to court Nov. 19 for a pretrial conference to either settle the case or conrm the jury trial date.
A gangmember who participated in the fatal shooting of a man mistaken for a rival in 2010 because of his navy blue jacket will be sentenced to 26 years in prison after pleading no contest to rstdegree murder and a special gang enhancement. Jaime Tetro Rodriguez, 22, took the plea deal for the at 26-year term rather than stand trial and face life in prison without the possibility of parole for the Nov. 28,
2010 death of Julio Pantoja Cuevas. A fellow defendant, Gerardo Aboytes, 21, accepted a plea deal already and received 17 years in prison for mayhem, perjury and assault with a deadly weapon. Prosecutors say Aboytes warned Rodriguez and co-defendants Michael Rodriguez, no relation, and Mario Cazarez Jr. Cuevas was allegedly visiting three female friends at a Madison Avenue apartment complex in Redwood City Nov. 28, 2010, two workplace fatalities on the site this year. The California Department of Occupational Safety and Health said Wednesday that it has rescinded its no violation decision for subcontractor Shindler in the death
wearing a navy blue jacket. Defendants Michael Rodriguez, Jaime Rodriguez and Mario Cazarez Jr. allegedly approached Cuevas and challenged him about what gang he claimed. After a shoving match, Michael Rodriguez allegedly pulled a gun and shot him several times. Cuevas ran down an alley where he fell and died and the suspects ed in the opposite direction. Aboytes was not physically at the scene when Cuevas, 21, was shot but called his alleged accom-
plices to alert them to the presence of possible gang rivals, according to prosecutors. Rodriguez and Cazarez were arrested the day after the shooting. Jaime Rodriguez remained at large until June 2011 when he was arrested in Santa Fe, N.M. for a domestic dispute in a casino. Jaime Rodriguez returns to court Jan. 21 for formal sentencing. Michael Rodriguez is sent for trial Oct. 28. The men remain in custody without bail. informing the company it was reopening the investigation on Oct. 14, the same day 61-year-old Edward Lake Jr. was killed at the stadium site when a load of rebar fell on him.

OAKLAND The tentative contract that ended the San Francisco Bay Areas transit strike includes a 15 percent raise over four years but also increased worker contributions toward their health insurance and pensions, a person with direct knowledge of the agreement said Wednesday. The Bay Area Rapid Transit district and its two largest unions reached the agreement Monday night, but its details have yet to be made public because the two sides still were double-checking the wording before presenting the deal to union members for a vote. The person with direct knowledge of the deal that allowed BART service to resume after a four-day strike said workers would get paid 15.4 percent more by the time the agreement ends in 2017. Thats more than the 12 percent raise BART presented as its best and nal offer before the strike. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the details hadnt been
discussed with rank-and-le members of the two unions, which represent more than 2,300 mechanics, custodians, station agents, train operators and clerical staff. The deal also requires employees to contribute more toward their benets. Monthly health insurance premiums would increase from $92 to $129. And, for the rst time, workers would have to contribute to their state pensions. The rate would be 1 percent in the rst year, topping out at 4 percent in the fourth year. At the same time, workers would get back 72 cents for every dollar they contribute in an arrangement called a pension swap. Chris Daly, political director for one of the unions Service Employees International Union local 1021 conrmed the basic salary, health care and pension changes. But he disputed the suggestion that workers would be earning 15.4 percent more when the new contract expires, saying higher costs for health care and pensions make the take-home increase more like 2 or 3 percent over each of the four years.
Specics on nonnancial work rule changes contained in BARTs proposed agreement the sticking point in the unionsdecision to walk off the job last week remains sketchy.
Plans to revamp recently-acquired Werder and Destination parks in Foster City passed a hurdle this week as the City Council approved a $2.2 million plan to create passive recreational space there. City staff will now begin negotiations and continue to develop plans and specications with the design and planning rm Callander and Associates, said Kevin Miller, Foster Citys director of Parks and Recreation. The county gave the 2.6 acres of land along the Bay to the city with stipulations for it to remain open space, Miller said. The parks are currently closed to the public and
have primarily been used as a parking lot and construction equipment storage site, Miller said. The new plans will maintain the Beach Park Boulevard entry and access to the Bay Trail, create an open meadow, plant native vegetation and install picnic tables and benches, according to a staff report. A restroom was previously constructed by the county, but was closed shortly after and needs signicant repairs, Miller said. In addition to the $2.2 million construction cost, the city anticipates another $40,000 a year in maintenance. Monday nights vote was 4-1. Councilman Charles Bronitsky voted against the motion with the citys projected budget decit in mind.
Ive been against the expenditure of over $2 million on these parks since inception. I think that we should explore ways to use the funds that will reduce the burden on the general fund rather than increase it, Bronitsky said in an email. However, the money used to purchase the park did not come from the citys general funds, Councilman Steve Okamoto said, and the annual maintenance fees are allocated for in the citys Parks and Recreation budget. The city is responding to the challenges of investing in parks that typically dont generate revenue. There is the potential to have mobile concession stands like bike rentals or small snack trucks that would pay fees to the city, Miller said.
The Bay Trail is a countywide system that connects Foster City to other cities along the Bay, Miller said. The council would like to nd a mobile bike distributor for Werder Park, Okamoto said. The pedway of our part of the Bay Trail is ideal for bike riding. Theres a lot of people who dont have bikes or cant transport bikes, Okamoto said. The most inuential aspect of investing in the park may be its ability to increase property values in the area, Miller said. Parks make life better in Foster City. This will enhance the real estate and home values around [Werder]. Its still going to be a park and open space, but we are going to pursue our ability to generate revenue out of the site, Miller said.

WASHINGTON Bucking some of the same conservative groups that encouraged the government shutdown, Republicans and Democrats united Wednesday to overwhelmingly pass an $8.2 billion House bill mapping out plans for dams, harbor, river navigation and other water projects for the coming decade. Members of both parties praised the measure just a week after Congress voted to end a bitterly partisan standoff that shuttered much of the federal government for 16 days and threatened a rst-ever default on its debt. It passed the House 417-3. Its another example of the peoples house focusing on way to strengthen our economy, House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said after the vote. Im proud that it passed with a strong bipartisan vote.

House Speaker John Boehner,R-Ohio
rolling back President Barack Obamas health care law. That strategy ultimately failed despite the Obama administrations troubled rollout this month of computerized exchanges for people to buy medical insurance. The water bills sponsors attracted support from members of both parties by including projects from coast to coast and labeling the measure an engine for job creation. To attract conservatives, sponsors emphasized the measures lack of earmarks, or projects for lawmakers home districts, and changes including an accelerating of required environmental reviews that have dragged out many projects for years. Transportation is one of the few things Congress should actually spend money on, said Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., a conservative elected in the tea party wave of 2010.
Make no mistake, this is a jobs bill, said Rep. Steve Southerland, R-Fla., who like Massie voted last week against the measure that ended the shutdown and averted a potential federal default. Although the legislation labeled the Water Resources Reform and Development Act contains reform in the title, it fails to deliver on the promise, 10 conservative groups wrote in a letter to lawmakers. The groups said the bill did not do enough to cut spending or block unneeded projects. Congress last enacted a bill approving water projects in 2007, a lapse that created pent-up demand among lawmakers for such work. This bill is about strengthening our infrastructure so we can remain competitive. Its about economic growth, its about trade, its about jobs, said Rep. Bill
Shuster, R-Pa., chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, which wrote the measure. Added Rep. Alcee Hastings, D-Fla., Repairing our nations aging infrastructure, including our water infrastructure, is the best jobs creator out there. Shusters committee had no rm estimate on how many jobs would be created nationally by the legislation. Wednesdays debate underscored lawmakers sensitivity to public opinion polls showing voters disdain for Congress rising to new heights. We have today the opportunity to demonstrate that Congress can work toward the best interest of our country, said Rep. Ted Yoho, R-Fla., a conservative who opposed last weeks bill reopening the government and averting default. Business groups led by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the National Association of Manufacturers strongly backed the bill. The chamber distributed state-by-state fact sheets and said it would consider the measure a key vote when it determines which lawmakers to support in next years election.
WASHINGTON Crowdfunding is about to go big time. For years, lmmakers, artists and charities have used the power of the Internet to generate money for projects. But in the coming year, with the blessing of Congress, startups will be allowed to raise money this way by selling stock to small-time investors. For those investors, its a chance to make a small prot and possibly get in early on the next Twitter or Facebook. But its also
extremely risky, given that a majority of startups fail. And critics warn that investment crowdfunding is ripe for fraud. The Securities and Exchange Commission on Wednesday took a step toward implementing the law by proposing how much people could invest and how much companies must divulge. The SEC voted 5-0 to send the proposal out for public comment. Final rules could be approved next year. Under the proposal, people with annual income and net worth of less than $100,000 could invest a maximum of 5 percent of their yearly income. Those with higher incomes
could invest up to 10 percent. Companies also would be required to provide information to prospective investors about their business plan and nancial condition, as well as a list of their ofcers, directors and those who own at least 20 percent of the company. There is a great deal of excitement in the marketplace over crowdfunding, SEC Chairman Mary Jo White said before the vote. We want this market to thrive, in a safe manner for investors. Crowdfunding is hardly new. Sites like Kickstarter and Indiegogo have for years helped fund projects through donations raised
online. Through those sites and others, supporters can pledge $10 or tens of thousands of dollars to help start a project, be it a business, a charity or the arts. In return, supporters can receive a gift, such as a T-shirt or a song named after them. Others simply feel satised knowing that they helped a good cause. Or some get to join Spike Lee courtside at a New York Knicks basketball game. Thats how Lee rewarded donors who gave the maximum of $10,000 to his latest lm project, which he funded through a Kickstarter campaign in July that raised $1.4 million.

WASHINGTON On the defensive, the Obama administration acknowledged Wednesday its problem-plagued health insurance website didnt get enough testing before going live. It said technicians were deep into the job of fixing major computer snags but provided no timetable. Democratic unhappiness with the situation began growing louder including one call for President Barack Obama to man up and fire someone as the presidents allies began to fret about the political fallout. Democrats had hoped to run for re-election touting the benefits of the health care law for millions of uninsured Americans, but the computer problems are keeping many people from signing up. The White House also signaled a change underway in the timeline for signing up for coverage. Consumers have until Dec. 15 to apply for coverage thats effective Jan. 1. Even though open enrollment lasts until March 31, people would face a penalty if they postpone buying coverage beyond mid-February. Calling that a disconnect, the White House said officials will soon issue policy guidance so that if

consumers sign up by the end of March they will not face a penalt y. No action from Congress is needed to make that happen, the White House said. Republican sniping about the websites flaws continued unabated, with House Speaker John Boehner declaring, Weve got the whole threat of Obamacare continuing to hang over our economy like a wet blanket. Obama himself, though strongly defending the health
care overhaul, has been increasingly willing to acknowledge extensive problems with the sign-up through online markets. Amid all that, the Health and Human Services Department on Wednesday provided its most specific accounting yet of the troubles with HealthCare.gov an issue that is also about to get a lengthy, even-less-forgiving airing on Capitol Hill. The first of several hearings is set for Thursday in the Republican-led House, with lawmakers ready to pounce on the contractors who built the balky online enrollment system. Acknowledging whats been obvious to many outside experts, the administration said Wednesday that the system didnt get enough testing, especially at a high user volume. It blamed a compressed time frame for meeting the Oct. 1 deadline to open the insurance markets. Basic alpha and user testing are now completed, but thats supposed to happen before a launch, not after. The Health and Human Services explanation identified some bugs that have gotten little outside attention. For example, technical problems have surfaced that are making it hard for people to complete the application and planshopping functions.

Dzhokhar Tsarnaev
The outlines of a possible defense came into focus this week when it was learned that Ts a r n a e v s attorneys are trying to get access to investigative records
implicating the now-dead brother in a grisly triple slaying committed in 2011 . In court papers Monday, federal prosecutors acknowledged publicly for the rst time that a friend of Tamerlan Tsarnaev told investigators that Tamerlan participated in the unsolved killings of three men who were found in a Waltham apartment with their throats slit, mari-
juana sprinkled over their bodies. The younger Tsarnaevs lawyers argued in court papers that any evidence of Tamerlans involvement is mitigating information that is critical as they prepare Dzhokhars defense. They asked a judge to force prosecutors to turn over the records. Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 20, faces 30 federal charges, including using a
weapon of mass destruction, in the twin bombings April 15 that killed three people and injured more than 260. Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, died in a gunbattle with police days later. The government is still deciding whether to pursue the death penalty for the attack, which investigators say was retaliation for the U.S. wars in Muslim lands.
NATION/WORLD
DANVERS, Mass. A well-liked teacher was found slain in woods behind this quiet Massachusetts towns high school, and a 14-year-old boy who was found walking along a state highway overnight was charged with killing her. Blood found in a second-oor school bathroom helped lead investigators to the body of Colleen Ritzer, a 24-yearold math teacher at Danvers High School who was reported missing when she didnt come home from work on Tuesday, Essex District Attorney Jonathan Blodgett said. She was a very, very respected, loved teacher, Blodgett said. The suspect, Philip Chism, was arraigned on a murder charge Wednesday and ordered held without bail. The teenager, described by classmates as soft-spoken and pleasant, also did not come home from school the day before and was spotted walking along Route 1 in the neighboring town of Topseld at about 12:30 a.m. Wednesday. Officials didnt release a cause of death and havent discussed a motive in the killing. A court ling said Ritzer and Chism were known to each other from the high school, but it did not elaborate. The arrest was made based on statements by the suspect and corroborat-

ing evidence at multiple scenes, investigators said in court documents. Ritzers family said they are mourning the death of their amazing, beautiful daughter and sister. Everyone that knew and loved Colleen knew of her passion for teaching and how she mentored each and every one of her students, the family said in a statement provided by her uncle Dale Webster. At his arraignment in adult court in Salem, Chisms defense attorney argued for the proceeding to be closed and her client to be allowed to stay hidden because of his age. The judge denied the request. The lawyer, Denise Regan, declined to comment outside court. The tall, lanky teenager had moved to Massachusetts from Tennessee before the start of the school year and was a top scorer on the schools junior varsity soccer team, said Kyle Cahill, a junior who also plays soccer. He said the team had been wondering where Chism was when he skipped a team dinner Tuesday night.
SPARKS, Nev. The parents of the two boys wounded by a seventh-grader who fatally shot their teacher before turning a semi-automatic handgun on himself said Wednesday they dont believe their children were targeted in the schoolyard rampage. Police were interviewing dozens of students who witnessed the shooting as investigators continued to try to unravel the mystery of what motivated the shooter, whom they still have not identied two days after he took his own life on an asphalt basketball court
outside Sparks Middle School. Sparks police Lt. Erick Thomas said investigators still dont know whether the shooting spree 15 minutes before the start of school Monday morning was random or targeted specic individuals. But parents of the two 12-year-olds recovering from gunshot wounds said they dont think they were singled out. One said her son was trying to help the dying teacher, Michael Landsberry, when he was shot in the abdomen with a bullet that exited his back. We do not believe he was in any way the target in this shooting, Jenifer Davis told reporters outside Renown
Regional Medical Center, where she said her son Mason was doing well ... in good spirits, although saddened by the loss of his friend, Mr. Landsberry. From what weve learned from others at the scene, Masons rst instinct was to intervene and he did all he could to help Mr. Landsberry, she said. It is my understanding that he was trying to help Mr. Landsberry at the time he was shot. A parent of the other boy, who was shot in the shoulder, declined to be identied or speak with reporters but said in a statement released by the hospital, We do not believe our son was a target in this shooting.
OPINION
Just desserts
Unnamed ofcials tell the Post that Americans should not be worried because the sleuths are only looking for links to terrorist plotters. All that personal stuff is safe. Right, it is safe until some low-ranking employee with a big security clearance decides the world ought to know whom ordinary Americans are communicating with. That kind of random decision is how Americans know about this profound level of surveillance; former NSA contractor Edward Snowden leaked the secrets before he ed to Russia. Hundreds of millions of communication contacts could be dumped by someone else who perceives a higher purpose. Get Congress involved, and wake up the White House. orget a Coke and a smile. For a stronger buzz and real grin of delight, word on the street is Oreos are the way to go. A study released last week by Connecticut College claims that, at least in lab rats, Oreos are as addictive as cocaine. Seems rats who ate the fat-laden treats had brain pleasure center activity mirroring actually, exceeding that of rats exposed to cocaine or morphine. In other words, as previous studies have suggested, chocolate might parallel sex but cookies are the really guilty pleasure. Of course, the naysayers claim that theres not enough information because there havent been enough studies done on people with Oreo withdrawals. Easy x head to a newsroom late on election night or anywhere other place with a broken vending machine. In reality, its a little hard to equate cookies with illegal drugs although maybe that explains why those annoying and prevalent pop-ups on computers are called cookies. Like addiction, they dont seem to go away easily and act as a terrible gateway to other addictions mainly online shoe shopping. However, we should certainly all milk this new nding as long as possible. First off, this could be a valid excuse for those who prefer nose candy to, dare we call it, nose cookies. Imagine the explanation: I was going to just take the edge off with a few Oreos but have you seen the fat content in those things not to mention the addictive quality? Its sort of akin to how I jokingly justify a soft spot for gin and zinfandel (not together, thank you). With all the worries about whats oating in the drinking water some tasty chloramine or overouridation, anybody? why not just be safe and stick with adult beverages? Just imagine, too, if this new Oreo study gains wider traction and leads to some widespread legal reform. With cookies (you know the authorities wont just stop at Oreos) on the controlled substance list, there will undoubtedly need to be revamped rehab programs. Members of Overeaters Anonymous may get more sympathy if their drug of choice is now actually considered a drug. The Legislature and courts can launch Proposition 36-style diversion programs and the jail population will fatten up with offenders who just cant let go of that addictive sandwich cream and chocolate wafer goodness. The pundits will go crazy at rst, of course, debating whether these cookie ends are mere victims of genetic tendencies and widespread availability or monsters who are getting their just desserts. Filmmakers looking for a new way to turn old Hollywood favorites into money makers for future generations can swap out cocaine for Oreos. Imagine Tony Montana in a remade Scarface chowing on a pile of cookies sitting on his desk. Kind of gives his gun competition for the label my little friend. Or what about the Johnny Depp biopic on cocaine importer George Jung entitled Blow? Guess the new version would be aptly named Chew. Maybe even dunk as a nod to cookies common partner in crime. Singers can get into the act, too, so that the Miley and Bieber sets have a newfound appreciation for the Eric Clapton tune Cocaine. Hum it to yourself If you wanna hang out youve got to take her out, Oreo. But alas, history shows that this weeks health scare is next weeks latest surprise ounce of prevention for cancer or heart disease. The chances of the Oreo study resulting in anything other than an eyebrow raise a switch to Chips Ahoy! are slim. That is, as they say, how the cookie crumbles.

overseas. This is a variation on endlessly holding terror suspects in foreign jails and torturing them outside of U.S. legal restrictions. Irony of ironies, the NSA is collecting communications data at a volume that has imperiled the capacities of storage repositories. Both Congress and the executive branch come off badly. Lawmakers are fully empowered to hold hearings, ask questions and rewrite budgets if they do not like the answers or outcomes. President Obama is absolutely responsible for how the money is spent, and this bald evasion of the law does not reect well on the Harvard Law School grad.
istributing revelations about the voracious appetite of the National Security Agency for personal email and instant messaging accounts stir a basic question: Where is Congress and the executive branch? Who is looking out for the rights of Americans? Apparently no one. The NSA, which already legally collects U.S. call records, also collects contact lists. The Washington Post reports the agency is not authorized by Congress or the special intelligence court created by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act to gather this data. Collecting the information is illegal in the United States, so the NSA does its work

one for their support and help these past 16 years. There have been so many changes over the years. We have weathered many storms and celebrated many events. It has been a lot of hard work and I am confident that we will have many storms ahead, and will celebrate many good things as well. There are so many things that happen and can distract us from our goals, but fortunately the city has remained on course and maintained our balance and focus. There are many things that give me hope for the future. First, we have a good council that clearly loves Redwood City. Please re-elect Jeff Gee and John Seybert. They are good people, smart, very hard working and deserve our support. Their skills and commitment have clearly helped make our city better. Second, we have a very hard-working staff and excellent leadership. They are creative, caring and hard working. I am impressed with their work ethic and time commitment. There are many people running for my seat. However, I believe there is only one person that has the vision, commitment and maturity to be a part of the council team and lead our city forward. The depth of the issues and the understanding of how to balance the needs of the community with the resources available is a daunting job. Diane Howard is by far the best choice for the city.

Nasdaq Altera Corp.,down $5.02 to $32.30 Falling prots,falling revenue and a weak forecast made the computer chip maker the biggest decliner on the S&P 500. Cree Inc.,down $12.55 to $61.77 The LED lighting company issued a weak forecast,which overshadowed a big jump in prots during the most recent quarter.

NEW YORK A four-day streak of record closes ended for the Standard & Poors 500 index Wednesday after Caterpillar reported weak earnings and falling oil prices hurt energy stocks. Caterpillar, which makes mining and construction equipment, is considered an important barometer of the global economy. The plunge in Caterpillars third-quarter profit discouraged investors and stalled a twoweek surge in the stock market. Energ y stocks dropped as the price of oil fell to its lowest in almost four months. The S&P 500 fell 8.29 points, or 0.5 percent, to 1,746.38, ending its longest streak of record closes since mid-May. The S&P 500 had surged 6 percent over the previous two weeks, capped by a record close of 1,754.67 on Tuesday. The index climbed as lawmakers inched toward a deal to end a 16-day partial government shutdown and avert a potential U.S. default. Investors also became more convinced that the Federal Reserve would refrain from pulling back on its economic stimulus until possibly next year. We need to let a little bit of air out of the balloon here, said Alec Young, a global equity strategist at S&P Capital IQ. Weve seen a huge rally, so theres a bit of short-
term exhaustion. Energy stocks fell the most of the 10 industry groups in the S&P 500. The price of oil slipped $1.44, or 1.5 percent, to $96.86 a barrel, on higher supplies of U.S. oil and weak demand for fuel. Along with weaker earnings, Caterpillar issued a lower prot forecast. Its stock dropped $5.41, or 6.1 percent, to close at $83.76. Broadcom was another company that disappointed Wall Street. Shares of the communications chip maker fell 78 cents or 2.9 percent, to $26.36. The company on Tuesday gave a disappointing revenue outlook for the fourth quarter. Also weighing on the stock was Apples decision not to include a new wireless computer networking standard in its latest iPad model. It wasnt all bad news from Corporate America. Boeing raised its prot estimate for the full year because deliveries of commercial planes continue to accelerate. The plane makers stock climbed $6.54, or 5.3 percent, to $129.02. In other trading Wednesday, the Dow Jones industrial average fell 54.33 points, or 0.4 percent, to 15,413.33. The index of 30 leading U.S. companies hasnt rallied like the S&P 500 index, and remains 263 points below its own all-time closing high reached on Sept. 18.
The Nasdaq composite dropped 22.49 points, or 0.6 percent, to 3,907.07, ending a ve-day streak of higher closes. While some earnings disappointed investors on Wednesday, most companies are reporting prots that are better than expected. About sixty percent of the companies in the S&P 500 that have reported third-quarter earnings have beaten analysts forecasts, according to data from S&P Capital IQ. Obviously weve had one casualty today with Caterpillar but, so far, most companies have beaten market expectations, said Peter Cardillo, chief market economist at Rockwell Global Capital. S&P 500 companies are expected to report earnings growth of 3.5 percent for the July-to-September quarter over the same period a year earlier. Revenue is expected to rise by 3.9 percent. In government bond trading, the yield on the 10-year Treasury note eased to 2.50 percent from 2.51 percent late Tuesday. The yield, which is used to set interest rates on many kinds of loans including mortgages, is the lowest its been since mid-July. It has fallen 0.5 percent since reaching a high for the year of 3 percent on Sept. 5. Investors have bought Treasurys, pushing down their yield, as the outlook for economic growth has weakened since the government shutdown.
Business brief
Yahoo buys image-recognition startup for Flickr
SUNNYVALE Yahoos latest acquisition will bring image-recognition technology to its Flickr service for sharing photos. The Internet company is getting the new tools and expertise through its purchase of a startup called LookFlow. Financial terms of the deal announced Wednesday werent disclosed. Its a small acquisition, as have been most of the more than 20 deals that Yahoo has completed since hiring Marissa Mayer as its CEO 15 months ago. The one exception was the Internet blogging service Tumblr, which cost Yahoo Inc. $1.1 billion earlier this year. Yahoo is picking up ve LookFlow engineers in its latest deal. Mayer, a former Google Inc. executive, has been particularly interesting in snapping up startups with expertise in making applications for smartphones and tablets.
SAN FRANCISCO Activist investor Carl Icahn may be putting more pressure on Apple CEO Tim Cook to get more aggressive about boosting the iPhone makers stock price. Icahn posted on his Twitter account Wednesday that he had sent Cook a letter in the afternoon. He said he would share the letter Thursday on a new website called Shareholders Square Table. The missive follows up on a Sept. 30 dinner with Cook that Icahn hosted at his New York apartment. During that get-together, Icahn said he lobbied Cook to spend $150 billion buying back Apple Inc.s own stock. Thats
more than double the amount that the Cupertino company has committed to spend. Icahn, whose wealth is estimated at $20 billion by Forbes magazine, has said his fund has invested about $2 billion in Apple. At that amount, Icahn would own less than a 1 percent stake in Apple. Icahn, 77, has a long history of buying signicant stakes in companies with a slumping stock price and then pressing the corporate leaders to pursue plans that he thinks would make the shares more valuable. While Apples market value of about $477 billion is more than any other publicly traded company, its stock prices has fallen about 25 percent from a peak 13 months ago. Investors have
been worried about tougher competition facing Apple in the smartphone and table market, as well as the lack of a breakthrough product since the death of its chief visionary, Steve Jobs, two years ago. Those worries didnt dissipate with unveiling of Apples latest iPads on Tuesday. Apples stock rose $5.09 Wednesday to close at $524.96. Icahn believes Apple could lift its stock by taking advantage of low interest rates to borrow money to nance its proposed stock buybacks. The buybacks would fuel demand for Apples stock and increase the companys earnings per share by reducing the amount of stock. Higher earnings per share usually lift a companys stock price.

BOSTON Given a bit of help by the umpires and a lot more by the Cardinals, the Boston Red Sox turned this World Series opener into a laugher.

The College of San Mateo womens water polo team put together one of its best efforts of the season in earning a key 8-6 win over visiting West Valley Wednesday afternoon. While the Bulldogs played well all four quarters, it was a stellar third period that sparked CSM to the win. That was our best quarter of the season. We clicked, said CSM coach Randy Wright. The way the game was shaping up, you knew one big quarter could decide it. The tidal wave of momentum that swung over to the Bulldogs side of the pool actually began at the end of the second period. With the score tied at 2 midway through the second period, West Valley scored two unanswered goals within 30 seconds of each other to take a 4-2 lead. Jasmine Zaldivars goal with 11 seconds left before halftime, however, proved to be the jump-start the CSM offense needed. The second of Zaldivars four goals on the day pulled the Bulldogs to 4-3 at halftime and her third goal 36 seconds into the third period tied the game at 4. The Bulldogs went on to score three more times in the third period to take a 7-4 lead going into the nal eight minutes of the match. It was really a momentum boost, Wright said. CSM took the lead for good, 5-4, on Zaldivars third-straight goal, scoring off an assist from Sinclaire Cheong. Erica Staben red home a shot on a CSM power play from the perimeter to give the Bulldogs a 6-4 advantage before Shelby Chung scored CSMs third goal on the man-advantage with 44 seconds left in the period to put the Bulldogs up 7-4 going into the fourth period. CSM scored on both of its power plays in the third period, after scoring just once on four opportunities in the rst two quarters. The Bulldogs pushed their lead to 8-4 less
ou know who is even more happy than Tim Lincecum and his fans after the San Francisco Giants signed him to a two-year, $37 million contract? The Major League Baseball Players Association because the Giants have now set a new bar for middling, under-.500, over-4.50 ERA pitchers. The signing means even below average players will continue to get p-a-i-d. In other words, the Giants overpaid for a player again. Put Lincecum in the Marvin Bernard, Barry Zito and Aubrey Huff category of players who the Giants gave more money to than the free agent market would have paid them for their services. There is no way any other team in the majors would have paid Lincecum that kind of money, especially considering they would have had to give up draft picks to do so. San Francisco would have made Lincecum a qualifying offer in the amount of about $14 million, which would have meant any team that signed Lincecum would have to give the Giants some kind of compensatory draft pick. Considering how much draft picks are valued nowadays, that would have been a tall order. And if they did? Thanks for the memories, Tim. All those fans applauding the move are Lincecum fans and not necessarily Giants fans. If I presented you a pitcher who had just posted a 10-14 record with a nearly 4.60 ERA and said the Giants just signed him for $17 million a year, the team

AUSTIN, Texas ATexas high school football coach whose undefeated team won its last game 91-0 said Wednesday a district investigation found no grounds to support a bullying complaint led by a parent of the losing team. State law requires school districts to investigate complaints of bullying. That includes the unusual accusations lodged by a parent following Aledo High Schools lopsided victory Friday over Fort Worth Western Hills, which went beyond the usual magnitude of blowouts in Texas high school football.

administrators notied him the complaint had been cleared Wednesday. Basically, there were no grounds for bullying during the game, prior to the game or after the game, Buchanan said. Texas has no mercy rule in 11-man high school football to automatically end the game when the score becomes too lopsided.
A copy of the complaint obtained by the Associated Press quoted a parent, whose name was redacted by the Aledo school district, who said: we all witnessed bullying rsthand. Picking up my son from the eldhouse after the game and taking him home was tough, the complaint read. I did not know what to say to my son on the ride home to explain the behav-
ior of the aledo (sic) coaches for not easing up when the game was in hand. One section of the complaint asks to list the names of any witnesses to the bullying. Wrote the parent: everyone in the football stadium. The parent put no blame on Aledo players, and instead praised them for good sportsmanship and wished them good luck. Buchanan said he tried stopping the game from getting out of hand, even speaking to referees before the game about clock management if the score was a blowout. He approached referees again at halftime, he said, and asked to

game is key Busting out burpees to beat cancer Run to spread offense
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
By John Marshall
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
In boot camp-style tness classes across the Peninsula, there is one exercise that universally makes all exercise connoisseurs cringe and sometimes even groan with pain the infamous burpee, AKA up-downs or squat thrust. Former San Mateo Bearcat turned tness and lifestyle guru C.J. Easter has heard every single reaction under the sun in the now four years since he started the Performance Science Training Institute out of Menlo Park. Now that his business and passion has extended throughout San Mateo County, hes witnessed the love-hate relationship all of his clients have with the dreaded B word that has inspired T-shirts and memes not just here but across the nation. Every reaction, facial expression, grunt, groan, sound that the human body can make, weve seen it and heard it, Easter said. Its the best body weight exercise known to mankind. Its total body workout and gets you off the ground. And you can do a burpee anywhere. Its also a very difcult strengthwise and cardiovascular-wise. People dont really like it that much. We actually have a Tshirt that says Burpees Dont Like You Either. But for us tness professionals, its one of the better tools in the toolbox. Ah yes, the burpee. Its a simple move, really stand, get down to a push-up position, spring up to your feet and then jump in the air but the health benets behind the particular exercise have won over experts like Easter. And while you may not love them permanently, Easter is hoping that people from across the county will put their hatred aside for one day to aid in a very important cause. This Saturday, Easters brand new PSTI Body Transformation and Performance Center in Redwood City is hosting the second annual Burpees For Boobies, an hour or so of full body pain with 100 percent of the proceeds raised going to the American Cancer Society. Last year, Easter and his Burpee Warriors raised over $2,000. This year, the goal remains the same. I think just the fact that everyone is having a good time, Easter said of the event.
Everyone is working hard. Its a tough workout, but it puts a smile on their face because they know its for a good cause. So this year, were taking it up another level. Burpees for Boobies has it roots in one of PSTIs rst clients, who was diagnosed with breast cancer two years after she began work with Easter. After undergoing a double mastectomy, she was back in the gym working out just six weeks later. Hence, Easter and his trainers refer to her as a surthriver. Her doctor credited her positive spirit and overall tness level, Easter said of her return. Shes one of those perpetually positive people and just brings a great energ y. So, thats kind of where it all started. Since then, PSTI has sadly been hit by tragedy after the loss of another client,Melodi, to the disease. This years Burpees for Boobies is dedicated to her spirit, Easter said. Its something that is near and dear to our hearts. Weve taken it and run with it, he said. This years event will be start at 8 a.m. with the workout (ve laps around the PSTI facility with 20 burpees interrupting each lap) followed by a VIP social featuring healthy snacks a protein shakes. A DJ will play music throughout the two hours. For the $40 entry fee, participants receive a Tshirt and the chance to win $100 cash. Weve built a great community and thats really what were all about, Easter said. Weve always been big on that culture and thats something that is growing stronger especially because we have our own location
now. Thats one of the things that is currently taking the business to the next level. Easters PSTI has been on solid ground since it began in February of 2009. In August, his team nalized the Redwood City facility. There was two things I always knew growing up: I wanted to be my own boss and I wanted to be involved in sports or tness somehow, Easter said. I guess I kind of went the safe route when I went to Stanford and got a degree in engineering. When I got out, graduated and started sitting at a desk, I realized that wasnt my passion sports and tness is what I wanted to do. At that time, I gured all I needed was a roof over my head and some protein on my plate. So it was a good time to take that risk. Since then, its been, continue to give my clients great results and build from there. From there, it kind of builds on itself. We wanted a lot of functional movement space, Easter said of what he refers to at PSTI World Headquarters. We dont have any machines. Its all body weight and free weights. We believe in movement-based training. We believe in nding our clients movement patterns and from there we can challenge them once they develop the proper patterns. There isnt a lot of standard gym equipment. Its body weight based. And yes, those body weight exercises include lots and lots burpees perfect training for Saturday morning starting at 8 a.m. Itll be the most rewarding burpees youll ever do. I would say so, Easter said.
TUCSON, Ariz. The spread offense has an image problem. The perception of the spread is that its a wide-open offense with receivers zigzagging across the eld and a mobile quarterback who throws on every down or can take off when no ones open. The reality of the spread is that its often a run-rst system and the cog that makes it go is an explosive, versatile running back. It really is a bit of a misconception, Arizona associate head coach and co-offensive coordinator Calvin Magee said. It (the spread) really is to take advantage of numbers, take advantage of angles, take advantage of the eld. We still want to run the ball. The proliferation of spread offenses in college football has led to prolic numbers in recent years, teams piling up yards and points as defenses have tried to gure out ways to slow them down. The idea of the spread is to make the defense cover all of the 53 1-3 yards between the sidelines and the 100 yards between the end zones. With four and sometimes ve receivers spread out across the line of scrimmage, there are more passing options and a natural inclination to believe thats what teams are going to do every time. Many times, the passing game is just there to take the pressure off the run; some of the best spread offenses in the country run more than they pass. Second-ranked Oregon, the standard-bearer for fast-paced, spread offenses, was a run-rst team under Chip Kelly and that hasnt changed in its rst season under Mark Helfrich. The Ducks have the nations No. 2 offense overall and are No. 2 in rushing offense at 332.4 yards per game. Northern Illinois has the nations seventhbest offense and does most of its damage on the ground, averaging over 304 yards rushing, fourth nationally. Ohio State is a powerrunning team out of the spread, averaging nearly 280 yards per game, and Auburn churns out 300 yards per game rushing in a run-toopen-up-the-pass spread.

ALAMEDA Terrelle Pryor has had plenty of time to rehash the worst start of his brief NFL career. After spending the bye week for the Oakland Raiders trying to correct all the mistakes he made against Kansas City, Pryor can now turn his focus to the Pittsburg h Steelers. Pryor is looking to bounce back from a three-turnover, nine-sack performance that tempered the enthusiasm surrounding a stellar start the previous week against San Diego and help the Raiders (2-4) win the game after the bye for the rst time since the 2002 season. He used his time off to hone his mechanics with his personal coach, rewatch his previous games and spend extra time working with offensive coordinator Greg Olson and quarterbacks coach John DeFilippo. Ive become a better quarterback from that game, Pryor said. The two days I had with Olson and Coach Flip we really hammered home on situational football and understanding. I believe I became a better
quarterback just by sitting in the room with them the two days we had during the bye week. Thats something Im very proud of that we worked hard on that and Im getting better at that. Pryor followed up his Terrelle Pryor best game as a pro in a win against San Diego when he went 18 for 23 for 221 yards, two touchdowns and no turnovers with his worst the following week at Kansas City. Pryor struggled with the Chiefs defense, a record-loud crowd in Kansas City and injuries that decimated Oaklands offensive line in a 24-7 loss. Pryor completed just 18 of 34 passes for 216 yards, while throwing his rst three interceptions since the season-opener in Indianapolis and taking nine sacks. Pryor struggled to get the plays called on time, leading to three delay of game penalties and also called a wrong play and a wrong protection that added to Oaklands offensive woes. I think its part of the growth process
overall, Olson said. He did a number of good things the previous week, and then came in and had to play a very good defense. We were a little bit short-handed with what we had up front and the loudest environment in the history of the National Football League. I think its all part of the growing process and part of his growth process as we move forward. While many players went home after the final bye week practice last Wednesday, Pryor stayed in town to work with his coaches and ne tune his mechanics with his offseason throwing coach Tom House. Pryor said his balance was off and his head was in the wrong position at times, limiting his ability to drive the ball. There were some things we had to clean up but also things I am doing really good, he said. Just keep on getting better. Its a process. Im doing ne but there are some things I need to clean up and I started work when they got here. It was good work. Pryor could be helped out a bit this week by improved help on the offensive line. Starting center Stefen Wisniewski practiced Wednesday for the rst time since injuring his knee against Washington on Sept. 29.
That injury proved especially costly when backup Andre Gurode left the game against Kansas City with a quadriceps injury, forcing guard Mike Brisiel to play center for the rst time in the NFL. Thats huge, coach Dennis Allen said. I think what he means to our offensive line, the type of player he is, his intelligence level, it helps us with a lot of the communication. Not only with protection and schemes but also in the run game. I think having him back out there is a big boost for us. Starting right tackle Tony Pashos, who also left the Chiefs game with an injury, was not back and practice and worked on the side with a trainer as he tries to rehab his hip injury. Matt McCants, who started against San Diego and replaced Pashos in the rst half of the Chiefs game, once again worked with the rst team. NOTES: The Raiders claimed LB Martez Wilson from New Orleans and waived DT Christo Bilukidi, the teams sixth-round pick in 2012. Wilson appeared in four games this season for New Orleans, posting four tackles and one sack. ... LB Kaluka Maiava (hamstring) and Gurode did not practice.
NEW YORK David Sterns NBA owners gathered one last time, toasting the outgoing commissioner before he leaves after 30 years on the job. They also changed back one of the earliest changes Stern made. Leaving with Stern is the NBA Finals format he implemented in his rst full year on the job, one that alleviated travel concerns but critics felt also gave an advantage to the lower-seeded team. Beginning with the 2014 nals, the higherseeded team will host Games 1, 2, 5 and 7. The lower seed gets Games 3, 4 and 6, following the same format the NBA uses in all other rounds. The NBA for the previous 29 years has used whats referred to as the 2-3-2 format, in which the higher seed hosts the rst two games, then goes on the road for three straight. The 2-3-2 format was instituted in 1985 in
part to ease the amount of cross-country travel with the Celtics and Lakers frequently meeting for the championship. But some felt it also worked against the team that should have the advantage. There certainly was a perception ... it was unfair David Stern to the team that had the better record, that it was then playing the pivotal Game 5 on the road. So this obviously moves that game back to giving home-court advantage to the team with the better record if its a 2-2 series, Deputy Commissioner Adam Silver said. The unanimous vote to approve the 2-2-11-1 format came Wednesday during Sterns nal preseason meeting with his board of governors. Owners also voted to add an extra day between Games 6 and 7. The leagues competition committee had recommended the change last month back to 2-2-1-1-1, which was used in all but one nals
from 1957 to 1984. Stern has often said he was acting on advice or complaints about the travel from former Celtics boss Red Auerbach when the nals format was switched. But with commercial ights long since replaced by charters, teams didnt have the same difculties now with the number of trips. Instead, the ones who had the higher seed found it more inconvenient, Stern said, to be on the road for as many as eight days in a row when the opponent hosted the middle three games. Silver, who will become commissioner after Stern retires Feb. 1, is a proponent of the 2-2-1-1-1 format, though he said Stern and other league executives all thought it was time for the change. It reached a crescendo where basketball people thought it was important and the business people stood down and said it was no longer necessary for the convenience of transportation or the media, Silver said. Beyond the re-election of Spurs owner Peter Holt as chairman, there was little other busi-
ness for the owners, who toasted Stern during dinner Tuesday night. Stern said there was a video tribute voiced by Bill Russell, Magic Johnson, Michael Jordan, Larry Bird, Tim Duncan, Kobe Bryant and LeBron James, along with some speechifying and a series of totally embarrassing photos of me over the last 36 years. I got the opportunity to thank my colleagues at the NBA for their incredible work and saying how pleased I was that the league was in such good hands under those colleagues and Adams stewardship, Stern said. The owners were also presented with a Stern bobblehead doll. The commissioner said Cleveland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert joked that unlike most bobbleheads whose heads nod up and down, Sterns only moves side to side as if shaking its head no. Its been a great opportunity, Stern said. Believe it or not, even including my interaction with the media and the burns that come from being a lightning rod, its been a great run, and Im grateful to the owners for giving me the opportunity.

No. 6 Baylor has taken spread to a new dimension. The Bears have had three different 1,000yard rushers the past three seasons after having six total since 1945 and though they have more passing yards than rushing, still like to run rst. Baylor leads the nation in total yards with 714 per game and is seventh nationally in run offense at 300 yards per game. I grew up with a run-based offense, so were always going to run the football, Baylor coach Art Briles said. Well throw it for air, but were going to run it to win. The teams that run the spread the best have one key element: Agreat running back. Arizona runs one of the fastest spread offenses in the country under coach Rich Rodriguez and its keyed by KaDeem Carey, whos leading the nation in yards per game for the second straight year, averaging 160 yards this season.

implement a running clock in the fourth quarter to hasten the games end. Buchanan said none of his players felt good about the nal score, and believes his players were confused by suggestions that they bullied an opponent. They didnt understand how it was dened as bullying, what they knew bullying to be, Buchanan said. Aledo is an undefeated suburban football power (7-0) and a state championship contender this year. Theyve racked up several blowouts this season, due in part to being placed in a new district that isnt as strong in football. The Bearcats average victory margin in four district games this season is 77 points, and the team averages 69.3 points a game. On Friday, Aledo ran just 32 plays, rushing for 391 yards and eight touchdowns, as well as scoring two touchdowns each on passes and punt returns and one on a fumble recovery. lying as seriously given this lame suit. Thankfully, the school district found no grounds to support the bullying claim. The winning coach responded by saying he did everything he could to keep the score down: took his starters out after just a handful of plays and inserted his second- and third-string players early in the game. And even the teams subs overmatched the opposition. There has been no word from the coach of the losing team, but if he says anything other than, Its our own fault for not being able to stop them, he is not worth his salt as a coach.
Baylors versatile Lache Seastrunk is ninth nationally at 126 yards per game, while Oregon always seems to have someone among the rushing leaders, including Byron Marshall at No. 20 this season. Washington turned to an up-tempo, spread offense this season and its worked because of Bishop Sankey, who was the nations leading rusher until Arizona State bottled him up last weekend. I think just the running game in general is huge, for us, Washington coach Steve Sarkisian said. I dont know how everyone else operates, but for us so much of what we do comes off of our running game. Were just fortunate we have a guy in Bishop that can handle that load. Part of what makes running teams so effective out of the spread is the formation creates more running lanes. With so many players spread out trying to cover the receivers out by six or seven teams when it comes to spending and have proven they will pony up to pay players. But if management and ownership beg off signing other players that could help the team, claiming poor after giving Hunter Pence $90 million over the next ve years and the Lincecum deal, then signing the pitcher is a bad move. If the Giants go into spring training with the Gregor Blanco/Andres Torres platoon in left eld, dont nd an upgrade in center and stick with an aging, injured Marco Scutaro at second base, then the Lincecum signing is a horrendous decision. The one saving grace is the contract is only for two years and if you compare it to Lincecums just-expired, previous two-year deal in which he made $22 million per, then this deal is, essentially, a pay cut for er than it really was. As good as the CSM offense was, the defense was just as strong. In that third period, the Bulldogs weathered three West Valley man-advantage situations and Mullany came up with four saves in the quarter. She nished with 10 for the match. The game got off to a slow start as the teams managed to score just one goal apiece in the rst period. West Valley got on the scoreboard rst when Jessi Boyamankin slammed home a backhand shot just 55 seconds into the match. CSM equalized on Zaldivars rst goal of the game on the power play at the 3:19 mark.
the sidelines, it forces teams to make up more ground to clog holes that backs might run through. Many of the teams that run the spread have similar plays to offenses that run out of the I and other formations, its just that the running backs usually come from the side of the quarterback instead of directly behind. The key to making it work is nding a versatile running back who has good quickness, is explosive through the hole and runs hard essentially all the attributes any good running back in any system should have. If you dont have a good running back in a so-called pro-style offense, it makes you onedimensional as well, Magee said. You want to have a good tailback because you want to be able to take advantage of those lanes you are creating with those matchups. As some of the nations offenses have shown, it works. The Freak. But if it means, as Daily Journal advertising representative Charles Gould said, shopping at the Dollar Store to ll out the roster, then this deal is not worth it. *** I was once a longtime subscriber to Sports Illustrated and one of the features it had on a weekly basis was Signs the Apocalypse is Upon Us, which was a small blurb about the audacity and idiocy the world of sports can sometimes be. If the following story doesnt make it into S.I. over the next week or two, Id be shocked.

This kind of frivolous investigation gives real bullies a bad name, so to speak, in that people may not take a real situation of bulWright said he wasnt surprised the game got off to a slow start as both teams focused on defense. You knew it would be a tough rst quarter, Wright said. After that, we made it happen. We locked up the rst quarter. Thats what I am. I dont want a shootout. I want the game plan to take over. West Valley took a 2-1 in the second quarter when Boyamankin tipped in a shot that just eluded Mullany 1:10 into the period, but CSM came right back 25 seconds later on a Chung score to tie the match at 2. West Valley scored the next two goals before the Bulldogs came roaring back.

The match was a big one for both teams as the winner would stay in second place.

The Menlo College mens soccer team continues to lead the Cal Pac North after a 1-1 draw with the divisions second place team, William Jessup, in NAIA action this week. The two teams were locked in match that saw Menlo lead 1-0 until a Warrior goal in the 85th minute tied it and eventually forced overtime. The Oaks lone goal was scored by Bryce Nelson off an assist from Sean Kane in the 65th minute. The goal was Nelsons second of the season. Further proof of how equally matched the teams are came in the total shots category that saw Menlo hold a 13-12 advantage with each team notching six shots on goal. In the rst half, Menlo was dominant on its offensive attack and in control of the ball. The Oaks worked hard in the attacking third and were rewarded with a number of solid goal-scoring opportunities and a 53 advantage in shots in the half. The second half was much of the same and included a pair of shots that found the cross bar and post off the foot of leading-scorer Andrew Cota. Despite a number of shots that just missed, Menlo did manage to nd the net in the 65th minute when Kane connected with Nelson. The two team remained locked in a stalemate that was not settled by the two 10-minute overtime periods, resulting in the 1-1 draw. With the draw, Menlo remains in rst place and three points ahead of William Jessup in the Cal Pac North standings. The teams will play again on Nov. 9 at 3 p.m. in Rocklin. Menlo moves to 6-4-3 (53-1) on the season while William Jessup now sits at 5-7-1 (4-4-1). The Oaks return to action on
Friday as they welcome Soka University to Wunderlich Field for a conference match at 2 p.m. For the womens side, William Jessup is leading the Cal Pac and gained three valuable points by taking down Menlo 1-0. Alyssa Wimmer scored the lone goal in the 72nd minute. Goalkeeper Katelyn James and the Warriors defense did the rest. The rst half of play was a challenging one for the Lady Oaks who struggled to retain possession offensively and subsequently were unable to generate any signicant scoring opportunities. A strong defensive effort from the Warriors led to a 6-1 rst half advantage in shots. Despite the difcult start, Menlo begin connecting on passes and maintain possession in the second half to bridge the gap in the second half shot differential, 3-1. In the second half, Menlos leading goal-scorer Danielle McCarthy made a great run for the best scoring opportunity of the game for the Lady Oaks. The freshman found an opening and red off a shot that was deected by James back in front of the net where McCarthy had one more chance. This time, the leftfooted shot was sent away by Warrior defender Amanda Lopez, denying the Lady Oaks its best scoring chance of the game. Menlo and William Jessup meet on Nov. 9 in Rocklin for the nal regular season game of the year. The loss on Tuesday drops Menlo to 7-3 (4-2) while William Jessup improves to 9-6 (7-2). The Lady Oaks return to action on Friday afternoon when they will also play Soka.
St.Louis shortstop Pete Kozma,left,drops the ball for an error as Bostons Dustin Pedroia slides into second base during Game 1 of the World Series.Pedroia was originally called out, but after the umpires conferenced, he was ruled safe to pave the way for a three-run rst inning.

looked sloppy at every turn. Wainwright bounced a pickoff throw, Molina let a pitch skitter off his mitt, center elder Shane Robinson bobbled the carom on Napolis double and there was a wild pitch. The Cardinal Way? More like no way. Game 2 is Thursday night, with 22year-old rookie sensation Michael Wacha starting for St. Louis against John Lackey. Wacha is 3-0 with an 0.43 ERA this postseason. Lester blanked the Cardinals on ve hits over 7 2-3 innings for his third win this postseason. Ryan Dempster gave up Matt Hollidays leadoff home run in the ninth. Boston brought the beards, but it was a most hairy night for St. Louis. The Cardinals wrecked themselves with just their second three-error game of the season.
The umpires made a mistake, too, but at least they got to x it in a hurry. After the control-conscious Wainwright walked leadoff man Jacoby Ellsbury, Dustin Pedroia singled him to second with one out. Ortiz then hit a slow grounder to Carpenter, and it didnt appear the Cardinals could turn a double play. Hurrying, Kozma let the backhanded ip glance off his glove. DeMuth instantly called Pedroia out, indicating that Kozma dropped the ball while trying to transfer it to his throwing hand. Boston manager John Farrell quickly popped out of the dugout to argue while Pedroia went to the bench. Farrell argued with every umpire he could and mustve made a persuasive case. As the fans hollered louder and louder as they studied TV replays, all the umpires gathered on the dirt near shortstop and conferred and decided there was no catch at all. Pedroia came bounding from the dugout and suddenly, the bases were loaded in the rst. Napoli unloaded
them with a double that rolled to the Green Monster in left-center. Napoli certainly picked up where he left off the last time he saw the Cardinals in October. In the 2011 Series, he hit .350 with two home runs and 10 RBIs as Texas lost in seven games to St. Louis. The Red Sox added to their 3-0 lead with two more runs in the second. A elding error by Kozma set up Pedroias RBI single. Ortiz, who hit a tying grand slam at Fenway in the AL championship series win over Detroit, sent a long drive to right-center. Beltran, playing in his rst World Series, braced himself with one hand on the low wall in front of the bullpen and reached over with his glove to make the catch. Beltran hurt himself on the play, however, and left in the third inning. There was no report on his condition. The Red Sox got another run in the eighth on a sacrice y by 21-yearold rookie Xander Bogaerts. While St. Louis stumbled, Boston made the key plays.

At the beginning it was all impact, impact, impact and all they see is negative, Zucca said.

We dont know who will get on the council and we dont know what goes on behind closed doors. Theres a lot of people who would love to get on that land ... but money shouldnt be put in front of preserving nature, SaccoBelli said.

The $16.5 million beautication of the avenue includes more pedestrian-friendly features, with sidewalks widened from 10 to 16 feet, more landscaping and outside dining space.

Although it became clear nothing would be in perpetuity, the city is determined to make it as hard as possible to alter its new zoning district and vision for the property, Mayor Christine Wozniak said. The Friends of San Juan Canyon are considering a ballot petition to make the area a park, Sacco-Belli said. The city plans on taking immediate actions to declare it a park by labeling it on the city map and using some of its prots from the land sale to install a sign, Wozniak said.

ELECTION

Board of Trustees was also of concern for the candidates.
Economic development
The candidates believe there are opportunities for adding more businesses to the city. Candidates agreed that the citys aging infrastructure does pose a challenge for further developing the city, as San Bruno soon turns 100 years old. Bringing in biotechnology companies and other technology-oriented companies is the key to growth in San Bruno, Mason said. He also noted that, with the aging infrastructure, its important to stay ahead of the curve to x things before there are lawsuits. There is limited land mass, but we need to be forward thinking and embrace technologies, Mason said. The city is moving in the right direction, Ibarra and Rico Medina agreed. Ibarra said the plans made in the last 17 years have made San Bruno inviting to businesses. Im very proud of what were doing, he Ibarra said. There are now 6,000 workers in the Bayhill area. A select-service hotel has great potential for coming into the city, Rico Medina said. The citys Transit Corridors Plan will address some of the concerns. The plan aims to create higher density development in the area surrounding the future San Bruno Avenue Caltrain station, emphasizing a mix of residential and commercial uses that will promote walkability, transit use and economic development. The city has tried to make positive changes for business, but endured two mini recessions, Marty Medina said. He believes the transit plan is promising. Theres a lot of potential in the Bayhill area, he said. We are caught between an airport, freeway and cemetery and our downtown is struggling. It makes sense scally to redo the
Utilities
With a recent increase in sewer and water rates, Mason, Rico Medina and Marty Medina, all opposed the change. Rico Medina cast one of the votes against the hike on the councils 3-2 vote. In my world, this is too much for residents, he said. Partnering with the utility companies could bring efciencies, Mason said. He would like to make it more scally conservative for residents. The city needs someone with construction experience to review plans if the city plans to raise rates, Marty Medina said. If weve been raising rates since 1997, well be doing this until 2030, he said. Whats going to happen if we allow the momentum to continue? We need to quit doing things the old way. On the other hand, Ibarra said the decision to increase the rates came as a result of a lot of studies. The money was also necessary for repairs to an aging system, he said. No one likes to see 3-2 decisions, Ibarra said. We pride ourselves on consensus. We could have held off on the vote or informed the city better.
