FIGHTING CONTINUES DESPITE HAMAS, ISRAEL
PLEDGING TRUCE

A scathing labor dispute about
the installation of solar panels at
Nueva Schools new state-of-the-
art campus at Bay Meadows is
prompting the San Mateo City
Council to look into whether it
can ensure contracts are upheld.
The dispute centers on the gener-
al contractors hiring practices and
if electricians or laborers should do
the solar work an industry with
wide interpretation as to who can.
And while city ofcials have taken
an interest, it is not clear what, if
anything, can be done.
Still, Councilman David Lim
brought the matter to the councils
attention and instructed city staff
to research the matter at a study
session last week.
We need to send a clear message
to developers
that if theyre
going to enter
into a project
labor agreement
with our
unions, they
better be
damned sure to
follow it, Lim
said.
However, as the city is not a
party to the agreement, it may not
have authority to enforce the PLA.
The private Nueva School is
building its rst high school at
Bay Meadows, currently in Phase
II of the former race tracks 83.5-
acre redevelopment off Highway
101 north of Hillsdale Boulevard.
Construction of the environ-
mentally-friendly 2.7-acre campus
started in early 2013 and is slated
to be mostly nished in time for
school to start in the fall.
Prior to construction, the gener-
al contractor, Devcon
Construction, entered into an
agreement with unions to hire
locally and iron out which trades-
men would be hired for specic
jobs, according to multiple
sources. However, the addition of
solar panels came after the PLA

The downtown Burlingame post
ofce will not be moving to 1100
Howard Ave., the current location
of Calico Corners, but the long-
vacant 329 Primrose Road is now
being considered.
In a letter dated July 9 to
Councilman Jerry Deal, the U.S.
Postal Service says it was unable
to secure a lease for the property
located at 1100 Howard Ave. that it
had informed the city about in
March. The Primrose location is a
few doors down from Burlingame
Avenue and about a block away
from El Camino Real. Currently,
Cafe on Primrose is next door to
the space.
We believe this new location
will provide the community with
an upgraded, modern facility that
offers a safe working environment
for our employees and the level of
service expected by our cus-
tomers, the letter states.
Parking at the proposed loca-
tion should not be a problem
because there is a parking lot
behind the building, said U.S.
Postal Service spokesman James
Wigdel.
Once all is solidified, which
hinges on the sale of the old post
ofce building, we will make the

DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
When the owner of Tasty Thai in
downtown San Mateo saw an
online ad about a restaurant for
sale, she jumped on a ight from
Huntington Beach.
The only catch?
The new restaurant owner
could serve any type of food
except Chinese. The ad was
placed by the owner of Bow Thai
at 43 S. B St. and the lease did
not allow for another Chinese
restaurant to compete with
China Bee just two doors down.
That was no problem for
Chutima Buntora, affectionately
known as Monica by her regulars,
since she is from Thailand and had
thought about starting her own
business since she moved to the
United States in 2007 with her
children Patrick, 19, and
Michelle, 17.
It was perfect, I wanted a Thai
restaurant so I can serve my coun-
trys cuisine and when I called the
number on the ad, it was a Thai lady
on the other end, Buntora said.
After 22 years in operation, the
owner of Bow Thai was looking to
sell the business and retire.
Buntora spotted the ad on
Craigslist and wasted no time
booking a ight out to San Mateo
to negotiate the sale.
You have to nd your opportu-
nity and once you have it, you go
for it, said Buntora.
Within a few months, her
boyfriend Frederick Donson and
her children were painting, clean-
ing and renovating the restaurant
into a sleek and modern urban
space. The purple accents on the
walls add color and liveliness to
the ambiance that mirrors
Buntoras personality. She

Tortoise an accomplice
in alligators zoo escape?
NAUBINWAY, Mich. An owner of a
zoo in Michigans Upper Peninsula says
a 12-inch alligator has escaped, possi-
bly with some help from a tortoise.
TV stations WWTV-WWUP and
WPBN-WTOM and MLive.com report
the alligator named Carlos got out of
an enclosure over the weekend at the
GarLyn Zoo near Naubinway. He was
spotted by people nearby, who called
police, but he wasnt caught.
Gary Moore, who runs the zoo in
Mackinac County with his wife, says
he suspects the alligator slipped under
a fence. Moore says a large tortoise
that walks in the area, wearing away
dirt, likely was an inadvertent accom-
plice in Carlos getaway.
GarLyn Zoo is home to about 100
animals, including two adult alliga-
tors. Anyone who spots Carlos is
asked to contact police or the zoo.
Yes! Former WWE champ
catches suspected burglar
PHOENIX Aformer WWE champi-
on known as Daniel Bryan chased two
burglary suspects he saw exiting his
Phoenix home this week and subdued
one until ofcers arrived, investiga-
tors said.
According to police, Bryan Danielson
and his wife, Brianna, drove into the car-
port of their Arcadia home and saw a door
to the house start to open.
Thats when Danielson and his wife,
a fellow former WWE star known as
Brie Bella, ran inside to check on their
dog, Josie.
I saw the guys running out the
back. I chased them. I caught one of
them. I kept him until police got
there, Danielson said.
Danielson and Cesar Sosa, 22, got
into a struggle, but the former champ
subdued him until officers arrived,
Phoenix police Sgt. Tommy
Thompson said. The second suspect
got away.
The former champ said he didnt
have to apply the Yes! lock - his sig-
nature move- to get Sosa to surrender,
but he did put him in a rear naked
choke hold.
Unfortunately, he wasnt in very
good shape, Danielson said. So, it
didnt take much.
Sosa was arrested and faces a burgla-
ry charge. It was not known if he had
an attorney who could be reached for
comment.
Thompson said Sosa also had a
felony warrant for burglary and kid-
napping in another case.
Danielson said he was happy his
neighbors called 911 to report suspi-
cious activity about 10 minutes before
the couple arrived. He said his wife had
just picked him up from the airport.
I got really angry at first,
Danielson said. Theyre actually
lucky that I got them instead of Brie,
because she probably would have been
a little more violent.
Brianna Danielson said that while
her husband went chasing the intrud-
ers, she found Josie hiding in the cou-
ples bathroom.
We didnt know if they had Josie,
too, she said.
Danielson, known for his Yes!
chants, is recovering from a previous
injury.
No booze for DC folks?
New Hampshire may fix law
CONCORD, N.H. New Hampshire
is assuring residents of the nations
capital that they can purchase alcohol
in the state despite a law that suggests
otherwise. But cigarettes? Maybe not.
The New Hampshire Liquor
Commission recently told retailers
they should accept Washington, D.C.,
drivers licenses when determining a
buyers age, even though state law
does not explicitly include them and
instead refers to licenses from anoth-
er state or Canada.
The issue came up this month when a
Concord store clerk refused to sell
alcohol to a 25-year-old Washington,
D.C., man. The incident, rst reported
by the Concord Monitor, prompted
Executive Councilor Colin Van Ostern
to approach the commission.
New Hampshire depends more on
tourism, liquor sales and democracy
than probably any other state, so any-
thing that threatens the combination
of those certainly raises red ags for
me, he said. Even if its only been a
few instances, I think its a bad mes-
sage to send.

n 1602, Sebastian Vizcaino sailed from
Acapulco (Mexico) to nd a good port
to land at when the ships that crossed
the Pacic Ocean from the Philippines car-
ried gold. Immediately, Vizcaino found dif-
culty in traveling against the current that
later was found to go around the entire Pacic
Ocean from Japan. To go north, he had to
travel 600 miles to the west, turn back
toward the shore hoping to make mileage to
the north. This process had to be repeated
numerous times to make any headway.
In 1769, three ships had left La Paz, Alta
California with the aim of supplying Gaspar
de Portola and his expedition upon arriving
at San Diego Harbor. The rst ship, San
Carlos, left Jan. 9, 1769 and landed four
months later, April 29, in San Diego. The
second ship, San Antonio, left Feb. 15,
1769 and arrived before the San Carlos. The
third ship was never heard of again.
In 1602, the explorer Sebastian Vizcaino
discovered a vast, beautiful harbor he knew
would be a good landing site for the Spanish
in Alta California. Upon his return, he high-
ly recommended the site for settlement and
named it after the viceroy of Spain, Conde de
Monterey. It was not until the Russian threat
of settlement on the California coast that
the Spanish sent Captain Gaspar de Portola
to explore the area and make a settlement at
Monterey.
Starting out from La Paz, Baja California
in 1769, Captain Portola and his expedition
traversed the devastatingly hot, dry, hilly
desert of the Baja Peninsula and arrived at the
harbor of San Diego on July 1, 1769.
However, of the three ships from La Paz that
were to support Portola, only two had
arrived at San Diego and the men on the
ships were very sick. After weighing his
options, Captain Portola decided to continue

MILLBRAE I
recently read an
article in the trade
journal American
Funeral Director
about the famous
quote by the late
Sir William Ewart
Gladstone, the celebrated English four term
Prime Minister who was known for his
colorful oratories and speeches on the floor
of Parliament. This 19
th
century statesman
was renowned for many unique sayings, but
he is most noted among Funeral Directors
for saying this: Show me the manner in
which a nation cares for its dead, and I will
measure with mathematical exactness the
tender mercies of its people, their respect for
the laws of the land and their loyalty to high
ideals. This quote is very lyrical and well
thought out. It has become a long time
custom for many Funeral Homes to display
this quote on a plaque for all to see. The
meaning is obvious and is a direct
comparison between caring for our fallen
loved ones and the way we care for
ourselves, our community and our society.
To many observers it may appear that
weve lost the motivation to care for our
loved ones in a proper way, and that our
society has become misguided. Taking into
consideration the way our government
leaders sometimes act, without the maturity
to function unselfishly, is disturbing, and the
reasons they got elected can be alarming.
Also, in the eyes of logical people violence
should be against our nature, but seemingly
is embedded in our way of life. It is topsy-
turvy for a culture to view cruelty and tribal
brutality as a form of normality, and for love
to be viewed as an obscenity.
Yes, some say our society is falling apart,
but looking at the overall big picture I see
most people yearning to live a peaceful and
courteous life with those around them. Most
people are not violent. Most people want to
be accepted. Most people want to be happy.
Remember that hate is taught.
Wouldnt it make more sense for love to
be taught? Teaching youngsters to be
curious and to enjoy the differences of
those around them would be a good start.
They say that its hard to teach old dogs new
tricks. But old dogs will not be here forever,
and with effort every young dog could be
cultivated with ideals for supporting others
with respect. Putting this into practice may
seem daunting, but its not impossible and
over time could be valuable for our future.
Humanity has always been burdened with
a good percentage of bad guys. But, all in
all, the ideals that the majority of us value
and strive to promote, life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness, are shared in our core.
Going back to Gladstones quote, I see
the vast majority of the families we serve at
the CHAPEL OF THE HIGHLANDS
deeply committed to doing the right thing
for their loved ones. They come to us with a
desire for closure and to enact final tributes
for those theyve cherished. Whether public
or private their feelings are similar, and
showing one last bit of proper care is their
goal. For me this is a sign of hope, showing
that overall we are a society of good people
with a nature to live in harmony and peace.
If you ever wish to discuss cremation,
funeral matters or want to make pre-
planning arrangements please feel free to
call me and my staff at the CHAPEL OF

Who Or What Is Gladstone And
Why This Is Important

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
For 15 years, Students Rising Above has
been helping low-income, rst-generation
college students graduate and the program
only continues to grow.
This year, the program is bringing in its
biggest class ever: 100 students from 58
Bay Area schools in nine Bay Area counties
selected during their high school junior
year. Previously, the biggest class was 65
students and the rst class only had 10 stu-
dents. Half of the students come from San
Mateo and Santa Clara counties.
Were taking kids who probably offer
some of the biggest payoff to our communi-
ties, said Executive Director Lynne
Martin. Theyre the best possible role
models.
Ninety percent of students in the program
graduate college, three times the national
rate for low-income, rst-generation col-
lege students and 73 percent are foster kids.
The program grew out of a KRON 4 news
series called Beating the Odds by Wendy
Tokuda on what its like to grow up in
poverty and the killing elds neighbor-
hoods. Television viewers then started
sending in money and it became a scholar-
ship program.
It was clear not 50 percent of these kids
were graduating, Martin said. They needed
so much more than just a check.
Now Students Rising Above includes a
mentorship program that follows the stu-
dents from age 17 until the year after they
nish college, along with college funding.
Within 12 months of college graduation,
more than 80 percent of alumni are either in
career-ladder jobs or enrolled in graduate
school. Two-thirds of the students attend
University of California and California
State University schools.
College was the dream, Martin said.
The problem is when
you nally get there the
dream doesnt always
match up to the reality.
Youre competing
against children of great
privilege. You dont have
money to go out for
pizza on Saturday night.
Perhaps you were the A
student in your high
school class and now youre with kids
whose parents are doctors and lawyers and
went to Europe on summer vacation. Its a
culture shock.
The knee-jerk reaction for many students
when it gets really hard is to run and quit,
Martin said.
The advisor says, lets think about your
other options, she said. Every kid will
have a moment and our job is to help them
deal with those moments and ask them to
look back and say, what did you learn? We
want to give them life skills and say, this
is what I learned when I had this moment.
One student in the program, Claire
Alvarenga, 22, said she denitely had her
own moments in the program. She graduat-
ed this June from the University of
California at Los Angeles with a degree in
anthropology. Initially, Alvarenga entered
college pre-med, but ultimately decided
being a doctor wasnt for her. Still, she
wants to have a health-related career.
I cried to my advisor I was really frustrat-
ed with academics, said Alvarenga who
graduated from Jefferson High School in
Daly City. She (her advisor) just kept
motivating me to succeed and mentioned
theres other things I can do to impact the
community other than being a doctor.
Either youre pre-med or youre just some-
thing else. Theyve (Students Rising
Above) just been a great support group
since the beginning.
Alvarenga grew up in a household that
moved around a lot after their trailer burned.
Her parents divorced and her mother remar-
ried and they moved to Manteca. Eventually,
her mother decided to move to Texas and,
when Alvarenga was in seventh-grade, she
was dropped at her fathers house in South
San Francisco. They lived in a living room
of her fathers friend, while he worked at a
ea market to help support them.
Other students come from tremendous
hardships as well and are often very
resilient, Martin said.
Every time we think we have seen it all,
the short answer is, we havent, she said.
A full approach
The group takes a 360-degree approach
when they work with these students. Twelve
years ago, the group asked Martin, who
came from the for-prot sector, to come over
as a volunteer for fundraising. She helped
formalize the program and raised her hand to
become executive director. The funding now
comes from a variety of sources: a third from
individuals, a third from events and the other
third from corporations.
I think I have one of the best jobs in the
world, Martin said. I get to help kids who
grew up in poverty not just go to college,
but get a degree. Kids who come from noth-
ing and navigate the emotional, social and
academic challenges of college.
She notes that when the students rst
come into the program, theyll raise their
hands and say, how much money do I get?
Grads will say, the money was helpful,
but you really have become my extended
family, Martin said. For kids that have
no stable family base, its a miraculous
thing. The Bay Area community has
embraced these kids and this program.
There is this growing bond between our kids
and the general public.
Financials are an important part of the
organizations package. The group tries to
help its students graduate without a lot of
college debt and helps students navigate
through the applications for student aid.
All our kids apply to at least 12 colleges
and sit down and look at best options,
Martin said. Half the kids are graduating
without student loan debt, one fourth with
$5,000 and another one fourth with
$5,000-$10,000.
Having to pay student loans can start
within six months of graduating from
college.
It delays their ability to buy houses, cars
and they might have to go home and live
with a parent, she said.

which Tokuda has moved, now follows stu-
dents in the program.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OKLAHOMA CITY One mans quest to
explain his brothers mysterious jail cell death
19 years ago has rekindled long-dormant ques-
tions about whether others were involved in
the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing.
What some consider a far-ung conspiracy
theory will be at the forefront during a trial
set to begin Monday in Salt Lake City. The
Freedom of Information Act lawsuit was
brought by Salt Lake City attorney Jesse
Trentadue against the FBI. He says the
agency wont release security camera videos
that show a second person was with
Timothy McVeigh when he parked a truck
outside the Oklahoma City federal building
and detonated a bomb, killing 168 people.
The government claims McVeigh was alone.
Unsatised by the FBIs previous expla-
nations, U.S. District Judge Clark Waddoups
has ordered the agency to explain why it
cant nd videos from the bombing that are
mentioned in evidence logs, citing the pub-
lic importance of the tapes.
Trentadue believes the presence of a sec-
ond suspect in the truck explains why his
brother, Kenneth Trentadue, was own to
Oklahoma several months after the bomb-
ing, where he died in a federal holding cell
in what was labeled a suicide. His brother
bore a striking resemblance to the police
sketch that ofcials sent out after the bomb-
ing based on witness descriptions of the
enigmatic suspect John Doe No. 2, who
was the same height, build and complexion.
The suspect was never identied.
I did not start out to solve the Oklahoma
City bombing, I started out for justice for
my brothers murder, Jesse Trentadue said.
But along the way, every path I took, every
lead I got, took me to the bombing.
The FBI says it cant nd anything to sug-
gest the videos exist, and says it would be
unreasonably burdensome to do a search
that would take a single staff person more
than 18 months to conduct.
Jesse Trentadues belief that the tapes
exists stems from a Secret Service document
written shortly after the bombing that
describes security video footage of the
attack that shows suspects in plural
exiting the truck three minutes before it
went off.
A Secret Service agent testied in 2004
that the log does, in fact, exist but that the
government knows of no videotape. The log
that the information was pulled from con-
tained reports that were never veried, said
Stacy A. Bauerschmidt, then-assistant to the
special agent in charge of the agencys
intelligence division.
Several investigators and prosecutors
who worked the case told The Associated
Press in 2004 they had never seen video
footage like that described in the Secret
Service log.

Oklahoma City bombing

SAN DIEGO Amid the costumes and
fantasy of this weekends Comic-Con
convention, a group of young women
drew widespread attention to a very real
issue allegations of sexual harassment
at the annual pop-culture festival.
Geeks for CONsent, founded by three
women from Philadelphia, gathered near-
ly 2,600 signatures on an online petition
supporting a formal anti-harassment poli-
cy at Comic-Con.
Conventioneers told Geeks for CONsent
they had been groped, followed and
unwillingly photographed during the
four-day confab.
Meanwhile, what Geeks for CONsent and
others regarded as blatant objectication
continued on the convention oor. Scantily
clad women were still used as decoration for
some presentations, and costumed women
were described as vaguely slutty by panel
moderator Craig Ferguson. When Dwayne
Johnson made a surprise appearance to pro-
mote Hercules, 10 women in belly-baring
outts stood silently in front of the stage
for no apparent reason.
Groping, cat-calling and other forms of
sexual harassment are a larger social issue,
not just a Comic-Con problem. And many
comics and movies still portray women as
damsels in distress. But Geeks for CONsent
says things are amplied at the festival,
where fantasy plays such a large role.
Its a separate, more specic issue within
the convention space, said Rochelle
Keyhan, 29, director of Geeks for CONsent.
Its very much connected (to the larger
problem) and its the same phenomena, but
manifesting a little more sexually vulgar in
the comic space.
Comic-Con has an explicit Code of
Conduct that addresses harassing and offen-
sive behavior, said Comic-Con
International in a statement on Sunday to
The Associated Press. This Code of
Conduct is made available online as well as
on page two of the Events Guide that is
given to each attendee.

PLYMOUTH Fireghters in Northern
California on Sunday battled a wildre that
has destroyed 10 homes and forced hundreds
of evacuations in the Sierra Nevada
foothills, while a fire near Yosemite
National Park destroyed one home and grew
signicantly overnight.
East of Sacramento, the Sand Fire in the
Sierra foothills has burned about 3,800
acres, roughly 6 square miles, of steep,
rugged terrain near wine-growing regions in
Amador and El Dorado counties since
Friday, according to the California
Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.
The re, which has also destroyed seven
outbuildings, was 35 percent contained
Sunday afternoon, but it threatens hundreds
of homes in the drought-stricken region,
according to CalFire.
All of the vegetation in the area is
struggling. Its burning very easily,
spokeswoman Lynne Tolmachoff said. It
causes the fire to be a lot hotter and to
spread more easily.
The Sand Fire has prompted authorities to
evacuate about 500 homes and close several
roads near the town of Plymouth. Nearly
1,500 reghters, aided by aircraft includ-
ing a DC-10 air tanker, are working to con-
trol the blaze.
CalFire ofcials say the re started Friday
when a vehicle drove over dry vegetation.
Alfred Shults, his wife, Carolyn, and their
granddaughter ed their home in El Dorado
County on Friday after receiving an auto-
mated telephone call ordering residents to
evacuate, according to the Sacramento Bee.
Before he left, Shults said he packed as
much as he could into his vehicle and turned
on a sprinkler to soak the area around his
beloved motorcycle.
We just wanted to get out of there, and
hope theres something left when we get
back, Alfred Shults, 65, told the Bee on
Saturday as they waited for news at an evac-
uation center in Placerville.
West of Yosemite National Park, a wildre
that began Saturday afternoon quadrupled in
size overnight to 2,100 acres, or more than
3 square miles, and was burning out of con-
trol Sunday. It destroyed one home in the
small community of Foresta, adjacent to the
park, Ranger Scott Gediman said. The park
itself remained open.
About 400 reghters aided by xed-wing
helicopters were battling the flames
Yosemite, Gediman said. The cause wasnt
immediately known.
An estimated 100 homes in Foresta and
the small community of Old El Portal were
evacuated Saturday, and residents remained
out of their homes on Sunday. Two shelters
were opened for people and animals.
There have been no injuries so far, which
is wonderful, Gediman said.

MONROVIA, Liberia One of Liberias
most high-prole doctors has died of Ebola,
officials said Sunday, and an American
physician was being treated for the deadly
virus, highlighting the risks facing health
workers trying to combat an outbreak that
has killed more than 670 people in West
Africa the largest ever recorded.
Asecond American, a missionary working
in the Liberian capital, was also taken ill
and was being treated in isolation there,
said the pastor of a North Carolina church
that sponsored her work.
Dr. Samuel Brisbane, a top Liberian
health ofcial, was treating Ebola patients
at the countrys largest hospital, the John F.
Kennedy Memorial Medical Center in
Monrovia, when he fell ill. He died
Saturday, said Tolbert Nyenswah, an assis-
tant health minister. AUgandan doctor died
earlier this month.
The American physician, 33-year-old Dr.
Kent Brantly, was in Liberia helping to
respond to the outbreak that has killed 129
people nationwide when he fell ill, accord-
ing to the North Carolina-based medical
charity, Samaritans Purse.
He was receiving intensive medical care
in a Monrovia hospital and was in stable
condition, according to a spokeswoman for
the aid group, Melissa Strickland.
We are hopeful, but he is certainly not
out of the woods yet, she said.Early treat-
ment improves a patients chances of sur-
vival, and Brantly recognized his own
symptoms and began receiving care imme-
diately, Strickland said.
The American missionary, Nancy
Writebol, was gravely ill and in isolation in
Monrovia, her husband, David, told a
church elder via Skype, according to the
Rev. John Munro, pastor of Calvary Church
in Charlotte, N.C.
Munro said the couple, who had been in
Liberia for about a year, insisted on staying
there despite the Ebola threat. These are
real heroes people who do things quietly
behind the scenes, people with a very
strong vocation and very strong faith,
Munro said.

WASHINGTON Stepping up pressure
on Moscow, the U.S. on Sunday released
satellite images it says show that rockets
have been red from Russia into neighbor-
ing eastern Ukraine and that heavy artillery
for separatists has crossed the border.
The images, which came from the U.S.
Director of National Intelligence and could
not be independently verified by The
Associated Press, show blast marks where
rockets were launched and craters where they
landed. Officials said the images show
heavy weapons red between July 21 and
July 26 after the July 17 downing of
Malaysia Airlines Flight 17.
The four-page memo is part of the Obama
administrations push to hold Russia
accountable for its activities in neighbor-
ing Ukraine, and the release could help to
persuade the United States European allies
to apply harsher sanctions on Russia.
The timing of the memo also could be
aimed at dissuading Russia from further mil-
itary posturing. The Pentagon said just days
ago that the movement of Russian heavy-
caliber artillery systems across its border
into Ukraine was imminent.
Moscow has angrily denied allegations of
Russias involvement in eastern Ukraine.
Russias foreign ministry over the weekend
accused the U.S. of conducting an unrelent-
ing campaign of slander against Russia,
ever more relying on open lies.
Secretary of State John Kerry spoke by
phone Sunday with Russian Foreign
Minister Sergei Lavrov, urging him to stop
the ow of heavy weapons and rocket and
artillery re from Russia into Ukraine, said
a State Department ofcial. Kerry did not
accept Lavrovs denial that heavy weapons
from Russia were contributing to the con-
ict, said the ofcial, who spoke on condi-
tion of anonymity to provide details of the
call.
There was no immediate comment from
Moscow. The White House had no separate
comment on the release, referring queries to
the State Department.
The U.S. images claim to show multiple
rocket launchers red at Ukrainian forces
from within Ukraine and from Russian soil.
One image shows dozens of craters around a
Ukrainian military unit and rockets that can
travel more than seven miles.
The memo said one image provides evi-
dence that Russian forces have red across
the border at Ukrainian military forces and
that Russian-backed separatists have used
heavy artillery provided by Russia in
attacks on Ukrainian forces from inside
Ukraine.
Another satellite image depicted in the
memo shows ground scarring at multiple
rocket launch sites on the Russian side of
the border oriented in the direction of
Ukraine military units within Ukraine.
The wide areas of impact near the
Ukrainian military units indicates re from
multiple rocket launchers, the memo said.
Moreover, the memo included a satellite
image that it called evidence of self-pro-
pelled artillery only found in Russian mili-
tary units on the Russian side of the border
oriented in the direction of a Ukrainian mil-
itary unit within Ukraine.

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip Israel
and Hamas launched new attacks
Sunday in the raging Gaza war,
despite going back and forth over
proposals for a temporary halt to
nearly three weeks of fighting
ahead of a major Muslim holiday.
The failure to reach even a brief
humanitarian lull in the ghting
illustrated the difculties in secur-
ing a more permanent truce as the
sides remain far apart on their terms.
After initially rejecting an
Israeli offer Saturday for a 24-hour
truce, Hamas said Sunday that it
had agreed to hold re ahead of the
Eid al-Fitr holiday marking the end
of the Muslim fasting month of
Ramadan. But as Israels Cabinet
met to discuss the offer and the
ongoing war, rockets rained down
on southern Israel and Israeli
strikes could be heard in Gaza.
Each side blamed the other for
scuttling the efforts.
Hamas said that due to the lack
of commitment by Israel, it
resumed its fire. Israeli Prime
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
said that Hamas showed it could
not be trusted after it violated
other cease-re efforts.
Israel is not obliged and is not
going to let a terrorist organiza-
tion decide when its convenient
to re at our cities, at our people,
and when its not, Netanyahu said
in satellite interviews from Israel
carried on U.S. network Sunday
news programs.
In a phone call later Sunday,
President Barack Obama told
Netanyahu the United States is
growing more concerned about
t he ri si ng Pal est i ni an deat h
toll and the worsening humani-
tarian conditions in Gaza. The
White House said Obama reiter-
ated that Israel has a right to
defend itself and condemned
Hamas rocket attacks that have
killed Israelis, but pushed for
an immediate cease-fire.
International diplomats had
hoped a temporary lull could be
expanded into a more sustainable
truce to end the bloodshed and
U.N. chief Ban Ki-moon urged the
sides on Sunday to accept a 24-
hour break in ghting.
However, both sides were hold-
ing out for bigger gains in the
Gaza war.
Hamas wants to break the seven-
year blockade of Gaza and believes
the only way to force serious
negotiations on ending the clo-
sure is to keep ghting. Israel,
which launched the war on July 8
to halt relentless Hamas rocket re
on its cities, wants more time to
destroy Hamas rocket arsenal and
the military tunnels the Islamic
militants use to infiltrate into
Israel and smuggle weapons.
The 20-day war has killed more
than 1,030 Palestinians, mainly
civilians, according to the
Palestinian health ministry. Israel
has lost 43 soldiers, as well as two
Israeli civilians and a Thai worker
killed by rocket and mortar attacks
from Gaza, the Israeli military
said.
Following Hamas call for a
break in fighting, an Israeli
airstrike killed one person in Gaza
when it hit a vehicle carrying
municipal workers on their way to
x water pipes, the Palestinian
Red Crescent said.

Pope goes to stronghold
of Naples-area mobsters
CASERTA, Italy Pope Francis
has traveled to a southern Italian
stronghold of a clan of mobsters
who poisoned local farmlands by
dumping illicitly trafcked toxic
waste.
Francis made a late-afternoon
visit Saturday to Caserta, the main
town in the turf of the Casalesi
crime clan of the Naples-area
Camorra syndicate. During his
homily outside the 18th-century
Reggia palace, Casertas main
tourist attraction, Francis drew
applause when he urged his ock
to have the courage to say no to
every form of corruption and law-
lessness.
Against the Camorra, read a
banner in the crowd.
His reference to mobsters was
apparent when he denounced evil,
violence and sheer abuse of
power.
Last month, in Calabria, anoth-
er southern region plagued by
organized crime, Francis said
mobsters were excommunicated
for their adoration of evil.
Police visit to MH17
disaster site canceled
DONETSK, Ukraine Ateam of
international police ofcers that
had been due to visit the site of the
Malaysian plane disaster in east-
ern Ukraine canceled the trip
Sunday after receiving reports of
ghting in the area.
Alexander Hug, the deputy head
of a monitoring team from the
Organization for Security and
Cooperation in Europe, said it
would be too dangerous for the
unarmed mission to travel to the
area from its current location in
the rebel-held city of Donetsk.
It was not immediately clear
where precisely clashes had bro-
ken out.
Malaysian Airlines Flight 17
was shot down with a surface-to-
air missile over a part of eastern
Ukraine controlled by pro-
Russian separatists last week,
killing all 298 people on board.
U.S. and Ukrainian ofcials say it
was shot down by a missile from
rebel territory, most likely by
mistake.

OPINION 9
Conflicts of interest
Editor,
After learning that the San Mateo
County Harbor District staff is oper-
ating a bank out of the districts
administrative office in South San
Francisco (http://www.california-
maritimeinfrastructureauthority. org/
), I wonder if any of the districts
machinations could possibly get
more bizarre.
The California Maritime
Infrastructure Bank and Authority
website lists Peter Grenell, general
manager of the Harbor District, as the
president of the bank and the chair of
the authority. The Harbor District
ofce address, phone number and
email address have been included on
the banks website for many years,
but were only removed recently after
public attention, including an unfa-
vorable editorial in the Half Moon
Bay Review. More than half of the
revenue that funds the Harbor District
comes from San Mateo County prop-
erty taxes. How much of the costs of
this operation are falling on the
Harbor District?
Is there a conict of interest for the
Harbor District? Is there a conict of
interest for Mr. Grenell? Do Mr.
Grenells terms of employment allow
him to hold a position as president of
a bank in addition to his management
position with the Harbor District?
Can Mr. Grenell be trusted when seri-
ous questions are being raised about
Harbor District nances when he leads
a bank that gives loans to harbors?
And why dont all commissioners
know about the existence of the bank?
Theres an alarming need for trans-
parency regarding our Harbor
District management and its finan-
cial operations. Answers to these
and other questions from the public
would be a good start.

Billionaires and U.N. agendas
Editor,
Kudos to Matt Grocott for address-
ing U.N. Agenda 21 in Sue Lemperts
column in the July 21 edition of the
Daily Journal. The idea of a U.N.
plot sounds nutty at rst, until you
realize the U.N. acts largely as a front
for the billionaires and politicos
pushing this agenda. Recall that
Rockefeller funded the U.N. headquar-
ters in New York City; Ted Turner
donated $1 billion to the U.N. Gates
has given $26 billion to philanthro-
py much to U.N. programs;
Buffett gave $31 billion to Gates.
Apparently these globalists love
Agenda 21, essentially a two-tiered
totalitarian system everything
severely rationed for us food,
water, housing, energy, land-use,
health care, etc. and limitless for
the ruling elite.
In 2009, Rockefeller, Gates,
Soros, Turner and Buffett gathered
for a lets change the world meet-
ing. When these multi-billionaires
dine together, we the people are on
the menu. They have the combined
power of a mighty country one
potentially hostile to Americas
freedom and sovereignty.
Agenda 21, aka Sustainable
Development, calls for human set-
tlements in transit villages with
only public transit, no cars.
Interestingly, San Carlos already has
an approved transit village, and the
planned Grand Boulevard Initiative
would turn El Camino Real into main-
ly a bus route. Furthermore, Plan Bay
Area, a regional blueprint for all our
cities, co-opts local control, rezones
your property out from under you and
forces urbanized high-density housing
projects on our suburbs all consis-
tent with Agenda 21s template.
Residents should educate themselves
and protest these regional plans that
trump individual rights while urbaniz-
ing and homogenizing our cities. Our
freedom hangs in the balance.

Millbrae budget questions
Editor,
Since before April 2014, the people
of Millbrae were sold that the city
was in a nancial crisis and that if
the $1.5 million re assessment tax
was not passed, it would cripple the
city. This assessment has since
passed and will be in effect for an
overly lengthy 10 years.
On June 9, 2014 the Daily Journal
published Millbrae budget causes
worry with quotes from Mayor
Wayne Lee expressing concern for our
budget and shortfalls in the coming
years. Shortly later that month at the
state of the city address Mayor Wayne
Lee claimed we have some kind of
unexpected budget surplus and now
can afford spending expansions.
During this last eight months, Ive
seen nancial director Stephanie
Beauchaine be hired from Rio Dell
then dismissed. Weve hired an assis-
tant city manager, Steve Toler, from
Foster City and Chip Taylor as a
Public Works director. The city quick-
ly proceeded to give Ms. Marcia
Raines, our city manager, a prompt
and quick $43,000 raise with a
$20,000 bonus. Ive called upon the
City Council numerous times to
establish an audit commission as
many cities have done. I have
reviewed the mid-year budget and Im
simply at a loss to where this unex-
pected nancial windfall came from.
In 16 years, theyve never rotated
to another CPArm to look at their
books. I think the facts are very
telling that the information presented
to the public differs from what is hap-
pening in City Hall.
Doug Radtke
Millbrae
Comedy Central in Millbrae
Editor,
Stand up and applaud Millbrae for
the humor being generated from
recent articles regarding the towns
politics. You cant make this kind of
silliness up!
Millbrae councilmember travels to
China to promote investment. Hello,
I think these folks already are invest-
ing in Millbrae but perhaps the pro-
posed new electronic billboards need
nancing?
Supporters say the billboards will
attract travelers on Highway 101 to
stop and spend money in Millbrae
my guess is they just want to get
In-N-Out.
Mayor Lee is worried about budget
decits. Millbrae is near the bottom
in the county year to year in sales tax
generation. That surprises most resi-
dents who witness daily trafc jams
and packed restaurants perhaps a
cash receipts audit at the over 50 eat-
ing establishments is due?
Instead of recruiting high-end
retailers to the community, business
leaders plead with a local merchant to
reopen a consignment store that
closed recently that should help!
The fact is you cant buy a new pair
of shoes or undies in Millbrae but you
can get a foot massage in your choice
of a dozen parlors.
City leaders promised the
Intermodal city would deliver a boon
to hotel and retail sales from world-
wide travelers. The fact is BART
arrived and brought an increase in
retail crime and undesirable transients.
All is not negative. The city once
known for bowling alleys and burger
joints is waking up. Leaders are call-
ing for business diversication. Dim
sum palaces and yogurt stands are
ourishing even without parking.
Planning Commissioner Andrew
Baksheeff proclaims noise complaints
are reduced with increased wind.
One piece missing might be the

Famous local high
school graduates
M
any students who have graduated from our local
public high schools have gone on to become
famous in the arts, technology and sports. San
Mateo Highs famous alums include Sam Francis, artist;
Merv Grifn, creator of Jeopardy; Kris Kristofferson, musi-
cian/actor; Lee Mendelson, producer of Charlie Brown spe-
cials ; and Peter Thiel, cofounder of PayPal, to name a few.
From Burlingame Marc Benioff, founder of Salesforce;
Sequoia Gordon Moore, founder of Intel; Carlmont
Dana Carvey of Saturday Night Life; Aragon Ann
Kiyomura, Wimbledon ladies doubles champ; Brad Lewis,
Academy Award winner for producing Pixars Ratatouille;
Hillsdale Valerie Fleming, Olympics silver medalist
bobsledder. But no mention of the local connection of
todays most important graduate, John Holdren, 61, who is
President Obamas science advisor and plays a pivotal role
in the White House.
***
It was just by chance I dis-
covered that Holdren was a
Hillsdale graduate. Don
Leydig, former Hillsdale
principal and a Hillsdale
grad himself, mentioned it
some time ago. Then, last
month, The New York Times
published an article about
Holdrens important role:
Obama Adviser on Front
Lines of Climate Fight.
Leydig reports he couldnt
provide more information,
other then that Holdren was
very smart, because he was a
lowly sophomore when
Holdren was a senior.
Instead, he suggested I con-
tact Holdrens closest high
school friend, Allan Prager. Prager wrote as follows:
John and I met in rst grade at Beresford Park School
and were good friends through high school and right up to
the present. Johns interest in science manifested itself
early. When we were in fourth- or fth-grade, Johns parents
bought an encyclopedia set. I often rode my bike over to
his house just off the Alameda and would nd John
seated cross-legged on the living room oor, reading an
encyclopedia article on aeronautics, the solar system, biol-
ogy or some other scientic topic.
One of Johns lifelong avocations is shing; these days
its catch and release. One of our English teachers at
Hillsdale gave our class an assignment to write an essay to
convince. John salivated at the prospect of shing in
Crystal Springs Reservoir and wrote a passionate essay
advocating that Crystal Springs be opened to shing. In his
adolescent enthusiasm, the prospect of hooking large sh
right in our own backyard overshadowed the need for pure
drinking water. Of course, John has gone on to become one
of the nations experts at balancing competing needs for
natural resources, but the passion for shing remains.
Prager, 61, was editor of the student newspaper and stu-
dent body president, while Holdren was on the tennis team
and a member of the student council. Now, Prager is a vol-
unteer board member at NatureBridge, which brings 30,000
youth and their classroom teachers to Yosemite, Golden
Gate, Olympic and several other national parks each year
for outdoor environmental education. His current project is
to build a new sustainable, universally accessible, LEED-
platinum environmental education campus in Yosemite that
will be the National Park Services agship for environ-
mental education.
***
Holdren earned a bachelors degree from MIT in 1965 and
a Ph.D. from Stanford University in 1970. He taught at
Harvard University for 13 years and at the University of
California at Berkeley for more than two decades. He is
known for his work on the causes and consequences of
global climate change and on U.S. energy policies. He
delivered the Nobel Peace Prize acceptance lecture on behalf
of the Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs in
December 1995. He has also chaired the Committee on
International Security and Arms Control for the National
Academy of Sciences and was president of the American
Association for the Advancement of Sciences.
***
According to the New York Times, Holdren has had one of
the more prominent careers in academia and policy making
of any scientist in the land. He has spearheaded the most
recent National Climate Assessment report which painted a
stark picture of the impact climate change is having on the
nation. It seems he deserves listing as a famous alum.

No column on famous local high school grads would be
complete without mentioning Serra, a private parochial
school, which has a long list of famous athletes topped by
Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, the Pittsburgh Steelers
Lynn Swann, and the San Francisco Giants Barry Bonds.
And of course there is journalist Bill Keller, former execu-
tive editor of the New York Times and Pulitzer Prize winner.

BUSINESS 10

SAN FRANCISCO FedEx
Corp., the latest company accused
in a federal probe involving ille-
gal online pharmacies, says it will
ght the charges that it knowing-
ly shipped drugs to people who
lack valid prescriptions.
The company says it would have
to invade the privacy of customers
to stop such deliveries.
By contrast, UPS Inc. paid $40
million last year to resolve simi-
lar allegations and vowed to over-
haul its procedures and work with
investigators to detect suspicious
activity.
The contrasting responses to
the decade-long federal probe of
the prescription drug black market
underscore the difculty shippers
have in determining how far to go
to ferret out illicit online pharma-
cies among their customers and to
alert the government.
Wall Street analysts, legal
experts, anti-drug crusaders and
the companies themselves are
split on the issue.
FedEx could face $1.6 billion in
penalties after its July 17 indict-
ment on charges that it conspired
with illegal online pharmacies to
deliver prescription drugs to cus-
tomers it knew lacked valid pre-
scriptions.
The federal investigation of the
two shipping giants stems from a
blitz against online pharmacies
that was launched in 2005. Since
then, dozens of arrests have been
made, thousands of websites shut-
tered and tens of millions of dol-
lars and pills seized worldwide as
investigators broadened the probe
beyond the operators.
Google Inc. in 2011 agreed to
pay $500 million to settle allega-
tions by the U.S. Department of
Justice that it proted from ads
purchased by online pharmacies
that the search giant knew was
improperly selling prescription
drugs.
Many online pharmacies fill
orders without following proper
prescription protocols, often
requiring a customer to simply l l
out an online form that is reviewed
remotely by a physician.
The advent of Internet pharma-
cies allowed the cheap and easy
distribution of massive amounts
of illegal prescription drugs to
every corner of the United States,
while allowing perpetrators to
conceal their identities through
the anonymity the Internet pro-
vides, said San Francisco-based
U.S. Attorney Melinda Haag
Companies up and down the
online pill supply chain have
been grappling with defining
their duty to uncover and
report quest i onabl e Int ernet
pharmacies.
We are a transportation com-
pany we are not law enforce-
ment, said FedEx spokesman
Patrick Fitzgerald. He said FedEx
has often worked with investiga-
tors to thwart illegal drug activi-
ty during the companys 43-year
history.
Fitzgerald said that to comply
with Drug Enforcement Agency
demands to determine and then
disclose to the agency customers
who are illegally shipping pre-
scription drugs would require the
company to violate the privacy
of its customers.

ITHACA, N.Y. A physicist
from Armenia, a juice-maker from
Bermuda and a Burmese sushi chef
are crafting new careers in agricul-
ture under a program that applies
the business incubator model to
farming.
The Groundswell Center for
Local Food and Farming is one of
dozens of incubator farms spring-
ing up around the country to nur-
ture the next generation of agricul-
tural entrepreneurs. The projects
help would-be farmers get started
by providing a plot of land, shared
equipment, mentoring on busi-
ness planning and marketing, and
the opportunity to build a track
record of success that will help
them qualify for startup loans
when theyre ready to launch their
own farms.
Its giving me an opportunity
to implement business ideas that I
hadnt had a chance to before,
said Damon Brangman, 43, an
immigrant from Bermuda who
wants to grow his own vegetables
for the mobile juice business he
runs with his wife in Ithaca. Im
looking to buy or lease land, but
theres more risk and cost
involved. This was more within
my reach.
The 10-acre farm in Ithaca, in
New Yorks Finger Lakes region
140 miles west of Albany, is now
in its second growing season with
Brangman and two other farmers
tilling quarter-acre plots that they
can use for three years. Surik
Mehrabyan, 54, came to upstate
New York with a contract for
physics research at Cornell
University, but after it ended, he
wanted to return to the agrarian
lifestyle he grew up with in
Armenia.
My goal is to understand what
to grow to make a living,
Mehrabyan said as he spaded
stony soil to build a raised bed in
his plot at Groundswell. All the
time, Im doing different experi-
ments and nding markets, plan-
ning. For me, its most important
to get established with buyers
before I invest in land.
Ye Myint, 47, a native of
Myanmar, is growing sushi
cucumbers and greens such as
gongura and water spinach, which
are popular in Asian communities.
I have a deal with a Burmese gro-
cery store in Syracuse to buy
gongura, said Myint, who makes
sushi for the Cornell University
food service.
There are about 105 incubator
farms in 38 states, many of them
still in the planning stage or just a
few years into operation, accord-
ing to the National Incubator Farm
Training Initiative at Tufts
University in Massachusetts. The
program, launched in 2012, advis-
es new incubator farms and helps
farmers connect with them.
More than half the farms serve
immigrants and refugees, but oth-
ers nurture a range of new farmers
including young people, career
changers and retirees.
In 2008, new grants from the
U.S. Department of Agricultures
Beginning Farmer and Rancher
Development Program spurred a
number of incubator programs into
existence. The USDAprogram was
a response to the rising average
age of U.S. farmers and the 8 per-
cent projected decrease in the num-
ber of farmers from 2008 to 2018.
The 2014 farm bill includes $100
million for the program.
The barriers to getting into
this industry are so large that we
have to come up with new strate-
gies to get people on the land,
said Jennifer Hashley, project
director of the New Entry
Sustainable Farming Project, par-
ent organization of the Incubator
Training Initiative.

Survey: U.S. gas prices
fall 9 cents to $3.58
CAMARILLO Anational survey nds the
average U.S. price of regular-grade gasoline
has plummeted 9 cents a gallon over the past
two weeks to $3.58.
Thats the largest drop this year.
Industry analyst Trilby Lundberg said Sunday
the decrease came despite a rise in crude-oil
prices.
Lundberg says U.S. reners, enjoying plen-
tiful supplies, aggressively cut wholesale
prices to chase sales.
Midgrade averages were $3.78, and premium
averages were $3.93.
The U.S. average retail diesel price is down 4
cents per gallon, to $3.90.
The lowest average price Lundberg found in
the lower 48 states was $3.23 in Tulsa,
Oklahoma. The highest was $4.03 in San
Francisco.
The lowest average price in California was
$3.86 in Sacramento.

BRUSSELS Months after
Russia annexed Crimea and
stepped up support for separatists
in eastern Ukraine, Europe and the
United States are still searching
for a way to persuade Russian
President Vladimir Putin to
change course.
Targeted economic sanctions and
threats of tougher ones have yet to
alter what western ofcials say is
Moscows growing backing for the
rebels, including the shelling of
Ukrainian military targets in
southeast Ukraine from inside
Russian territory and alleged plans
to boost weapons supplies.
The Pentagon says the move-
ment of Russian heavy-caliber
artillery systems across its border
into Ukraine is imminent. That
escalation of military posturing is
not the retreat the West was hop-
ing sanctions would encourage.
Putin has been walking a
tightrope in recent months, limit-
ing his involvement in the
Ukraine crisis just enough to avoid
truly biting Western sanctions.
But the downing of a Malaysia
Airlines passenger jet July 17,
blamed by the U.S. and Ukraine on
pro-Russian rebels possibly
with Russian help might have
changed the equation, galvanizing
support among reluctant
Europeans for additional penalties.
The European Union has said it
will enact more sanctions on
Russia by the end of the month
and the United States, which had
imposed its toughest sanctions
just a day before the plane went
down, is expected to follow suit.
Yet despite the promise of more
pain, Russia has only boosted its
role in the days since the plane
went down, with the loss of nearly
300 passengers and crew, accord-
ing to U.S. ofcials. That has left
Washington and Brussels in a
quandary over finding Putins
Achilles heel and exploiting it.
Sanctions have not yet bitten
Putin hard enough to change his
behavior and neither have diplo-
matic moves to isolate him.
Having been tossed out of the
Group of Eight bloc of leading
industrialized nations and seen his
already limited contacts with
NATO further reduced, Putin was
still invited to join western lead-
ers at ceremonies marking the
70th anniversary of D-Day in
France. And France said this week
it will go ahead with the sale of
two warships to Russia, the
biggest ever sale by a NATO coun-
try of military equipment to
Moscow.

PARIS Vincenzo Nibali won the
Tour de France on Sunday, becoming the
rst Italian in 16 years to triumph in
cyclings greatest race by chiseling a lead
over his main rivals a few seconds at a time
and dominating them in the mountains.
The 29-year-old Sicilian, who called himself
a ag-bearer of anti-doping during the race,
nished in a bunch behind Marcel Kittel, who
won the 21st stage in a sprint nish.
Nibalis victory comes after the pre-race
favorites 2013 champion Chris Froome and
two-time winner Alberto Contador crashed
out with injuries in the rst half of this years
Tour.
Astana team leader Nibali is only the sixth
rider to win all three Grand Tours France,
Italy and Spain. The last Italian to win the Tour
de France was Marco Pantani in 1998.
After cruising in 24 seconds after Kittel a
German who got his fourth stage win Nibali
received pats on the back, kissed his wife and
infant daughter, and was mobbed by cameras as
race organizers hustled him away to prepare for
the awards ceremony.
Unbelievable, said Kittel, whose victories
bookended this Tour. He won Stage 1 when
British rival Mark Cavendish crashed out in the
nal sprint.

COOPERSTOWN, N.Y. Frank Thomas
choked back tears, Joe Torre apologized for
leaving people out of his speech and Tony La
Russa said he felt uneasy.
Being enshrined in the Hall of Fame can have
those effects, even on the greats.
Thomas, pitchers Tom Glavine and Greg
Maddux, and managers Bobby Cox, Torre and
La Russa were inducted into the baseball shrine
Sunday, and all paid special tribute to their fam-
ilies before an adoring crowd of nearly 50,000.
Im speechless. Thanks for having me in
your club, Thomas said, getting emotional as
he remembered his late father. Frank Sr., I
know youre watching. Without you, I know
100 percent I wouldnt be here in Cooperstown
today. You always preached to me, You can be
someone special if you really work at it.I took
that to heart, Pop.
Mom, I thank you for all the motherly love
and support. I know it wasnt easy.
The 46-year old Thomas, the rst player
elected to the Hall who spent more than half of
his time as a designated hitter, batted .301 with
521 home runs and 1,704 RBIs in a 19-year
career mostly with the Chicago White Sox.
Hes the only player in major league history to
log seven straight seasons with a .300 average,
20 homers, 100 RBIs and 100 walks.
Ever the diplomat as a manager, Torre some-
how managed to assuage the most demanding
of owners in George Steinbrenner, maintaining
his coolness amid all the Bronx craziness while
keeping all those egos in check after taking
over in 1996. The result: 10 division titles, six
ALpennants and four World Series triumphs in
12 years as he helped restore the luster to base-
balls most successful franchise and resurrected
his own career after three rings.
Torre, the only man to amass more than
2,000 hits (2,342) and win more than 2,000
games as a manager, was last to speak, and in
closing delivered a familiar message.
Baseball is a game of life. Its not perfect,
but it feels like it is, said the 74-year-old Torre,
who apologized afterward for forgetting to
include the Steinbrenner family in his speech.
Thats the magic of it. We are responsible for
giving it the respect it deserves. Our sport is
part of the American soul, and its ours to bor-
row just for a while.

Maddy Price anchored Team Canadas 4x400 meter relay team which set a new Canadian
junior womens record at the IAAF World Junior Championships in Eugene, Oregon.
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
In front of thousands of international
fans, recent Menlo School graduate Maddy
Price made Canadian history with her
national team in the 4x400-meter dash
womens relay.
Running for Team Canada at the IAAF
World Junior Championships at the
University of Oregon on Sunday, Price
anchored the 4x400 team which shattered
the Canadian junior womens record with a
time of 3 minutes, 33.17 seconds. The pre-
vious record, set in 2010, was 3:34.50.
Sundays record-breaking time just missed
the podium, as the Canadian relay team
Marian Abdul-Rashid, Christian Brennan,
Kendra Clarke and Price took fourth place
overall.
Obviously it was a little frustrating that
we didnt get the medal that we wanted,
Price said. But setting the record was huge
and we had a great time.
Price took the baton for the anchor leg
trailing Team Germany by approximately 10
meters. With the anchor for the Nigerian
close behind so close, Price said she
could see the green of the Nigerian uniform
out of her periphery Price accelerated
around the nal turn. She succeeded in hold-
ing off the Nigerian anchor and just missed
catching the German.
As soon as I crossed the nished line, I
collapsed, Price said. I was putting my
head down on the track and was kind of frus-
trated that we didnt get the medal we had all
been working hard for. But after seeing our
time, and after my coach (Tony Clarke) told
me what my split time was and how we broke
the record, we were happy and satised with
that race. It was denitely mixed emotions,
for sure. And we can denitely be proud of
how we performed, especially on the world
stage.
Finishing ahead of Canadas time of
3:33.17, Germany took bronze with a time
of 3:33.02; Great Britain took silver with a
time of 3:32 at; and the U.S. took gold

The sum of Glenn Hubbards 40 years in
professional baseball, whether on the dia-
mond or as a coach, can be described with
one word range.
As a player, Hubbard
never won a Gold Glove
award. That is only
because in manning sec-
ond base for the Atlanta
Braves through most of
the 1980s, his elite defen-
sive range was overshad-
owed by the sure hands of
Cubs nine-time National
League Gold Glove win-
ner, Ryne Sandberg.
As a coach from his rookie season of
1990 with Braves Rookie-class affiliate
Bradenton to his 11 years as a major league
first-base coach from 1999 to 2010 in
Atlanta Hubbard has ranged through near-
ly every level of afliated baseball.
And while Hubbards name has never so
much as appeared on a Hall of Fame ballot,
the former Braves and Oakland As second
baseman is in elite company in regards to
this years class of Hall of Fame inductees.
Of the six greats to be enshrined Sunday in
Cooperstown, New York three managers:
Bobby Cox, Tony La Russa and Joe Torre;
and three players: Tom Glavine, Greg
Maddux and Frank Thomas Hubbard has
on-eld connections to ve. Only former
journeyman relief pitcher Steve Karsay has
connections to all six.
Hubbard played for all three managers:
including for Cox and Torre during his 10
seasons with the Braves, and for La Russa in
his two seasons with the As. During his
big-league coaching tenure, he served for
the nal years of Maddux and Glavines
respective careers in Atlanta.
Now in his fourth year as a minor-league

SANTA CLARA Lawrence Okoye
speaks as if he is hoping to win a contest
for the Oxford University debate team. That
very well may be next on his list of things
to accomplish.
The rugby player turned track and eld
athlete turned football player has been
accepted to the prestigious English educa-
tional institution, where he intends to study
law, and has a spot reserved until 2017.
Playing defensive end for the San
Francisco 49ers is the latest of his engage-
ments and hes given himself over to sculpt-
ing his body into a precision instrument for
the football eld.
Training is different in regards to
weightlifting, Okoye said. But there is a lot
of carryover. Its about getting winded and
how well you perform when youre fatigued.
He has impressed 49ers coach Jim
Harbaugh, among others.
Hes really playing with a lot better pad
level, Harbaugh said
Sunday. Hes playing
lower, and the bull rush,
right now, is a real
strength. Hes a strong
man with long arms.
Okoye, who holds
Britains national record
in the discus and repre-
sented the country in the
2012 London Olympics,
lost last season to a knee
injury. Hes ready to make huge strides this
year.
Its great to be back in pads, he said.
Its been a long journey. Ive tried to spend
as much time as possible working out.
Okoye hurt his knee during an exhibition
game last August and never made it back to
the eld until training camp.
Okoye grew up a promising rugby player
through high school before taking up the
discus in 2010. He turned his attention to
football after reaching the Olympics nal,
where he placed 12th.
I enjoy the collision aspect of it, Okoye
said. Rugby was a big deal for me and foot-
ball was a sport I could let loose a little bit.
The 49ers like his raw talent at a position
where injuries took a toll last year. Despite
his lack of experience his rst taste of
football was at a regional NFL combine
Okoye understands the level of commitment
it takes to play at an elite level.
I have a long way to go, Okoye said. If
Im satised, Im selling myself short. Im
enjoying the whole process. Its crazy, real-
l y. I cant watch tape from last year, I wince
a lot. I feel like a different player.
He lined up for pass rushing drills
Saturday for the rst time and overwhelmed
Jonathan Martin, who is learning a new
position. He wasnt quite as successful
against eight-year veteran Joe Staley.
Thats why its good to go up against the
best left side in the league, said Okoye said.
Its all part of the learning process. Its going
to be tough but I expect to beat people.
The 49ers currently list 10 defensive linemen
on their roster, including six with two years or
less of experience. Rookie Kaleb Ramsey is on
the physically unable to perform list.
Okoye and second-year pro Tank
Carradine lived and worked out together for
most of the offseason, developing a close
relationship.
I feel like its a group of hungry play-
ers, Okoye said. Its a bunch of guys who
are willing to do the necessary things.
NOTES: Linebacker Aaron Lynch was acti-
vated from the physically unable to perform
list and center Marcus Martin was activated
from the non-football injury list.
Offensive lineman Alex Boone remains
on the did-not-report list as he continues
his holdout.
Its the life cycle of were in camp and
were focused on the season, Harbaugh
said. I think were at the cycle where thats
the stance we choose to take.
Cornerback Chris Cook, who signed as a
free agent this season, spent the past three
years with the Minnesota Vikings.
Im not a rookie any more and its denite-
ly better weather here, he said. I feel like
Im on a good track and Im on the rise.
Niners DE Lawrence Okoye preparing for the NFL
Lawrence

NAPA Not a lot has changed in the year
since Oakland Raiders quarterback Matt
McGloin entered the NFL as an undrafted
free agent.
Hes still buried on Oaklands depth chart,
still spending most of his time in practice
waiting for the occasional rep or two with
the offense.
The only difference might be in
McGloins expectations.
Coming in here last year, I wouldnt get
any reps actually, McGloin said. To now
get a few here and there is a lot better. In
terms of being prepared mentally, it kind of
makes you feel more comfortable day in and
day out.
After starting six games during his rookie
season and drawing high praise from coach
Dennis Allen and offensive coordinator
Greg Olson, the former Penn State walk-on
didnt inch when Oakland made a pair of
offseason moves for quarterbacks and imme-
diately penciled them in ahead of McGloin.
He embraced the arrivals of Matt Schaub
and Derek Carr as posi-
tives for a team strug-
gling to end an 11-year
playoff drought. Still, he
wants another crack at
the starting job.
McGloin had an up-
and-down day Sunday
when the Raiders held
their rst practice in full
pads but he finished
strong with a pair of nice throws late in the
afternoon workout.
In between, he stood behind the offense
and patiently watched as Schaub ran the
rst-team offense while Carr worked with
the second unit.
My mentality has always been it is what
it is, McGloin said. Theres two ways you
can go: You can either be the guy who shows
up every day and doesnt want to be there
and complains and pouts, or you can be the
guy who says Im going to make the most
out of my reps, Im going to do whatever I
can and Im going to continue to ght and
scratch and claw and compete every day.
A year ago McGloin would have been
happy just to have a member of the coaching
staff remember his name. The Raiders invited
him to camp to give the other three quarter-
backs ahead of him at the time a break.
It quickly became clear he could do much
more than that.
By the time camp ended McGloin had out-
played Tyler Wilson, making the fourth-
round draft pick expendable. When veteran
Matt Flynn was released in October and
Terrelle Pryor suffered a knee injury four
weeks later, McGloin got the nod.
He passed for three touchdowns in a 28-23
win over Houston, raising hopes that
Oakland might have accidentally stumbled
upon their franchise quarterback.
Instead, what followed were ve consecu-
tive losses in which McGloin and the
offense regressed. He sat out the season-
nale against Denver when Allen opted to
go with Pryor.
Theres good things you take away from
it, and also a lot of bad things happened,
said McGloin, who passed for 1,547 yards
with eight touchdowns and eight intercep-
tions. Im always searching for something
better. Thats what gets me up and gets me
going every day.
Allen, who at times last season seemed to
gush over McGloin, says the second-year
quarterback remains a part of Oaklands plans.
I love our quarterback room ... all the
way from one to four on the depth chart,
Allen said. We feel very condent that if we
needed to call on Matt to go in and perform
and win a game for us, that he could go in
and perform at a high level.
For now, McGloin will continue to try to
soak up whatever knowledge he can from
the two quarterbacks ahead of him.
Im glad its a guy like Matt Schaub, who
I can learn from every day, and a guy like
Derek Carr who I can compete with every
day, McGloin said. Its a good opportuni-
ty for me. Im learning a lot and Im a lot
further ahead than I was last year.

(hip exor) and wide receiver Rod Streater

SAN FRANCISCO Carl Crawford hit an
RBI triple to back Hyun-Jin Ryus third
straight victory, and the division-leading
Los Angeles Dodgers completed a sweep of
the San Francisco Giants with a 4-3 victory
Sunday night.
Ryu (12-5) moved within two wins of his
rookie total last year and improved to 4-1 in
ve outings at AT&TPark, where in one dom-
inant weekend the Dodgers made quite a state-
ment to take over the NLWests top spot.
In his Giants debut, Jake Peavy threw a
pair of wild pitches in the fifth as the
Dodgers went ahead on Hanley Ramirezs
RBI single ahead of Crawfords triple to the
corner in deep right field.
Matt Kemp singled twice and the Dodgers
leave the Bay Area with a 1 1/2-game divi-
sion lead after outscoring the Giants 17-4.
San Francisco suffered its rst three-game
sweep in the rivalry since June 24-26, 2013,
at Dodger Stadium. The last Dodgers sweep at
AT&T Park came July 27-29, 2012.
Buster Posey hit a solo home run in the
fth for San Franciscos rst extra-base hit
since Hunter Pence doubled in the ninth
inning Wednesday at Philadelphia the
Giants rst three-game stretch without an
extra-base hit since May 30-June 1, 2002.
Ryu struck out seven in six innings and
improved to 8-2 in 11 road starts. Kenley
Jansen followed scoreless innings by J.P.
Howell and Brian Wilson for his 30th save.
Peavy (0-1) pitched a day after being traded
from the Boston Red Sox to the Giants for a
pair of minor league pitchers, reuniting him
with former manager Bruce Bochy. Peavy
pitched for Bochy and the Padres in the play-
offs in 2005-06.
Bochy stuck with the right-hander to get
through the sixth after he allowed a leadoff
walk to Juan Uribe. Peavy drew regular roars
from a lively sellout crowd at AT&T Park as
fans found plenty to cheer for after a frustrat-
ing few days.
He allowed six hits and four runs
three earned struck out five and walked
two in six innings.
Peavy dropped to 14-3 with a 2.28 ERAi n
26 starts against Los Angeles, including a
three-hitter last Aug. 25 at Dodger Stadium in
which he struck out ve and walked one.
Second baseman Dan Uggla committed two
errors, including one that helped tie it early
after he scored the games rst run in the bot-
tom of the third. Ugglas elding error leading
off the top of the fourth allowed Ramirez to
reach and Uribe later singled in the tying run.
The Giants lost for the 19th time in
their last 25 home games.
NOTES: The Giants optioned right-han-
der George Kontos to Triple-A Fresno to
clear room for Peavy.
Former Giants closer Wilson drew cheers
during pregame warmups, then boos for the
beard when the Los Angeles reliever jogged
out for the bottom of the eighth.
Madison Bumgarner (12-7) pitches when
San Francisco begins a three-game series at
home with Pittsburgh on Monday night
while the Dodgers have an off day before
starting an eight-game homestand Tuesday
against Atlanta.

ARLINGTON, Texas John Jaso drove in
three runs, helping Scott Kazmir and the
Oakland Athletics beat the Texas Rangers 9-
3 Sunday night.
Jaso had a run-scoring single during
Oaklands ve-run second inning and added
a two-run double in the fth.
The Athletics rst three batters Jaso,
Stephen Vogt and Yoenis Cespedes each
had a double and a single, and Josh Reddick
added three singles.
Kazmir (12-3) moved into a tie for the
American League lead while allowing seven
hits in ve innings. He walked two and
struck out two.
The victory enabled Oakland to remain two
games ahead of the second-place Los Angeles
Angels in the AL West. The Athletics are 7-5
against the Rangers this season.
Adam Rosales had a two-run homer in the
second for the Rangers,
and Adrian Beltre added a
solo shot off reliever
Evan Scribner in the
eighth. Beltre was 2 for 3
with a double and a walk.
Miles Mikolas (1-3)
allowed seven earned runs
on seven hits and four
walks in 4 2-3 innings.
With one out in the sec-
ond inning, Mikolas walked Jed Lowrie and
Eric Sogard. Craig Gentry, the No. 9 hitter,
hit a soft grounder to Mikolas, who threw to
second hoping to start a double play but the
ball went into center eld. Lowrie scored on
the play.
Jaso and Vogt followed with run-scoring
hits. Cespedes doubled to drive in the
final two runs.
Jaso has an 11-game hitting streak against
Texas and a 15-game streak as the Athletics
leadoff batter. He is batting .394 (13 for 33)
against the Rangers this season and .380 (19
for 50) in his last 15 games overall.
Texas cut the gap to 5-2 on Rosales
homer in the bottom of the inning.
In the fth, Sogard doubled home the
Athletics sixth run. After Mikolas walked
Gentry with two out, left-hander Ryan
Feierabend came on and gave up Jasos dou-
ble that stretched the lead to 8-2.
Reddick singled against Feierabend to
drive in another run in the sixth inning.
NOTES:Center elder Coco Crisp was not
in the starting lineup because his neck was
bothering him again, according to manag-
er Bob Melvin.
Oakland activated infielder Alberto
Callaspo (strained right hamstring) from
the disabled list and optioned rst baseman
Nate Freiman to Triple-ASacramento.
The game-time temperature was 100
degrees.

Nibali won four stages a feat not
equaled by a Tour winner since Lance
Armstrong won five a decade ago. The
Italian wore the yellow jersey for all but two
stages since Stage 1. His 7 minute, 37 sec-
ond margin over runner-up Jean-Christophe
Peraud equals that of Armstrong over Swiss
rider Alex Zulle in 1999 a result nullied
for doping. Before that, the biggest margi n
was that of Germanys Jan Ullrich: He beat
second-placed Richard Virenque by just over
9 minutes in 1997.
In one of the subplots of this race, Peraud and
third-placed Thibaut Pinot became the rst
Frenchmen to reach the Tour podium since
Virenque in that year a fact not lost on many
homegrown fans. Pinot was 8:15 behind.
But such comparisons, many cycling
insiders have noted, miss the mark.
Armstrong, Ullrich and Virenque were three
of the big-name riders caught in nearly a
generation of doping scandals in cycling.
Armstrong, in the biggest scandal ever in
the sport, admitted to doping and was
stripped of his record seven Tour titles.
Nibali and many others in the peloton say
that era is past. But his own victories in the
2010 Vuelta and the Italian Giro last year
were tarnished by high-prole doping cases
involving other riders. While cyclings
governing body, the UCI, has made great
efforts to halt use of drugs and other per-
formance-enhancers, such as through the
biological passport program, few cycling
observers believe the pack is fully clean.
Many naysayers may argue that Nibali
was the best of the riders still in this Tour.
Colombias Nairo Quintana, who won the
Giro dItalia in May, did not ride. Bradley
Wiggins, the 2012 Tour champ, was passed
over so his Sky Team could focus on
Froome. Then Froome and Contador pulled
out due to injuries.
But even before they left, Nibali had
gained a 2-second advantage on them by
winning Stage 2, surprising even himself.
Then, in Stage 5 after Froome crashed out,
the Italian excelled on cobblestone patches
that slowed down Contador, who lost more
than 2 1/2 minutes to Nibali. The Spaniard
was forced into a need to attack.
On a downhill in Stage 10, Contador
crashed and fractured his tibia. But Nibali,
who is known as The Shark of the Strait
a nod to the waterway near his hometown
of Messina, Sicily didnt stop there. He
went on to win that stage into La Planche
des Belles Filles. It was the rst of three
stages with uphill nishes that he won,
adding one in the Alps (Chamrousse) and
another in the Pyrenees (Hautacam).
Nibali said this Tour layout, announced last
fall, was almost made to measure for me.
Tejay van Garderen, the highest-placed
rider from the United States, said on Twitter
this was the hardest of the four Tours that
hes competed in. He nished fth overall,
11:24 back of Nibali, after climbing a spot
in Saturdays time trial.
The 101st edition began in Yorkshire,
England, and guided riders over 3,664 kilo-
meters (2,277 miles) including cobble-
stones, wind-swept ats and climbs in the
Vosges, Alps and Pyrenees.
With the Arc de Triomphe in Paris as the
backdrop, other riders getting TV time on
the winners podium included Peter Sagan of
Slovakia, winner of the green jersey given
to the races best sprinter; Rafal Majka of
Poland, the best climber; and Pinot, the best
young rider born since the start of 1989.

with a time of 3:30.42.
Price said her split time was the fastest of
any in the 4x400 nals
Thats faster than Ive ever run before,
Price said.
So fast, Price said it was all a blur. Thats the
desired effect, however, according to her chiro-
practor and mentor, Peter Grimes.
He always says, If somebody asks you
after one of your races how it felt, a lot of the
time you cant really remember which is
true, Price said. Alot of my races are a blur. I
cant even remember what happened. That was
the case today. I remember thinking, What
just happened?
In Saturdays trials, the Canadians tabbed the
second best time overall. With a 3:34.88, it was
less than four-10ths off the then Canadian jun-
ior womens record; and it was the rst time the
quartet had ever run together as a team, no less.
Price also competed individually in the
womens 400 meter, but did not advance out of
the trials. Her time of 54.06 in the July 23
seminals was the 10th best time overall, with
the top eight times qualifying.
I didnt have a great race, Price said. I did-
nt really get out on the last curve. I got out
really strong, felt super relaxed. I just relaxed
too much on the back curve.
Brennan, Prices 4x400 relay teammate, did
qualify for the individual womens 400 meter
and ultimately nished seventh overall.
Price competes for Team Canada because she
has duel citizenship. Her father Shawn and
mother Sarah are both Canadian natives who
have since become duel citizens of the U.S.
Price, along with her younger sister Nikky,
were both born in the U.S. Her parents and sis-
ter all made the trip to Eugene, Oregon for the
prestigious World Junior Championships.
With her 2014 track season now completed,
Price said she will take a month off before relo-
cating to North Carolina, where she will attend
Duke University in the fall on a full athletic
scholarship. She begins practice with the Blue
Devils on September 1.
Im really excited to join that [4x400] team
and hopefully do really well at NCAAs my rst
year, she said.

WHERE THE READY GET READY
Every Battery For Every Need
By Jenna Fryer
INDIANAPOLIS With a fth Brickyard
400 victory on the line Sunday, Jeff Gordon
looked like the driver he was 20 years ago.
Gordon nailed the nal restart of the race
no given because restarts have been
Gordons Achilles heel to pass Hendrick
Motorsports teammate Kasey Kahne with 17
laps remaining at Indianapolis Motor
Speedway.
His power move from the outside lane past
Kahne put Gordon out front for good, and he
put in cruise control for a NASCAR-record
fth victory at historic Indy. The win came
on the 20th anniversary celebration of
Gordons win in the inaugural Brickyard 400,
and on Jeff Gordon Day as declared by the
Mayor of Indianapolis.
The win moved Gordon
into a tie with Michael
Schumacher, whose five
Formula One victories at
Indy had been the gold
standard.
God, I nally had the
restart of my life, Gordon
screamed on his radio.
Hed botched one earlier
in the race, and the four-
time NASCAR champion has struggled with
restarts for some years.
So when a late caution gave Gordon one
last shot at Kahne, who dominated and led a
race-high 70 laps, Gordon and his No. 24
team knew the driver was in control of his
own destiny.
Crew chief Alan Gustafson talked fuel
mileage with the driver Gordon had
enough to get to the nish, and Kahne was
cutting it close but Gustafson said noth-
ing about the pressure looming over the nal
restart.
The restart is going to be the race, really,
Gustafson conceded in a television interview
moments before the eld went green.
Nobody had any reason to worry as Gordon
nailed it when he needed it most.
Im not very good on restarts and wasnt
very good today, and I nally made the restart
of my life when it counted most, Gordon
said in Victory Lane. I knew we had a great
race car, we just needed to get out front.
Kahne plummeted to fth after the restart,
then ran out of gas on the nal lap and had to
nurse his car home to a sixth-place nish.
Kyle Busch nished second, 2.325 sec-
onds behind Gordon, and was followed by
Joe Gibbs Racing teammates Denny Hamlin
and Matt Kenseth.
Joey Logano was fth in the highest-n-
ishing car from Team Penske, which brought
Juan Pablo Montoya to the race in an effort
to get the win. Roger Penske has won a
record 15 Indianapolis 500s, but is winless
in the Brickyard. Montoya was never a factor
and nished 23rd.
Kyle Larson, who grew up a Gordon fan,
nished seventh and likened Gordons win
on Sunday to Dale Earnhardt Jr.s season-
opening win in the Daytona 500.
Kevin Harvick, the polesitter and the driv-
er with the car most everyone thought would
be tough to beat, was eighth and followed by
Earnhardt and rookie Austin Dillon.
Carl Edwards nished 15th hours after
Roush-Fenway Racing nally conrmed he
was leaving the team at the end of the season.
Jeff Gordon ties record with 5th checkered flag at IMS
Jeff Gordon
If all of us who love baseball and are doing
our jobs, then those who get the game from us
will be as proud to be a part of it as we were.
And we are. This game is a gift, and I am hum-
bled, very humbled, to accept its greatest
honor, Torre said.
The day was a reunion of sorts for the city of
Atlanta. Glavine, Maddux and Cox were part
of a remarkable run of success by the Braves.
They won an unprecedented 14 straight divi-
sion titles and made 15 playoff appearances,
winning the citys lone major professional
sports title.
Im truly humbled to stand here before
you, Cox said. To Tom Glavine and Greg
Maddux, and I have to mention the third mem-
ber of the big three John Smoltz I can
honestly say I would not be standing here if it
werent for you guys.
Smoltz, part of the MLB Network telecast of
the event and eligible for induction next year,
ashed a smile in return for the compliment.
Glavine was on the mound when the Braves
won Game 6 to clinch the 1995 World Series,
pitching one-hit ball over eight innings in a
1-0 victory over Cleveland. And the slender
lefty was one of those rare athletes, drafted by
the Braves and the Los Angeles Kings of the
National Hockey League.
In my mind, since I was
drafted ahead of two Hall of
Famers in Luc Robitaille
and Brett Hull, that obvi-
ously means I would have
been a Hall of Famer in
hockey, too, Glavine
chuckled as the crowd
cheered. But Im positive
I made the right choice.
The 48-year-old Maddux
went 355-227 with a career
ERAof 3.16 in 23 seasons
with the Braves, Cubs,
Padres and Dodgers and
ranks eighth on the career
wins list. He won four
straight Cy Young Awards
in the 1990s and won 15
or more games for 17
straight seasons with his
pinpoint control.
I spent 12 years in
Chicago, 11 in Atlanta, and
both places are very spe-
cial, Maddux said.
Without the experiences
in both cities, I would not
be standing here today.
La Russa, who ranks
third in career victories as a
manager with 2,728,
behind only Connie Mack
and John McGraw, was chosen manager of the
year four times and won 12 division titles, six
pennants and three World
Series titles in stints with
the White Sox, Oakland As
and St. Louis Cardinals.
La Russa spoke from the
heart. There was no written
speech.
Its uncomfortable
because I didnt make it as a
player. Not even close,
said La Russa, who made his
big league debut as a teenage
inelder with the 1963
Kansas City Athletics and
appeared in just 132 games
over six seasons, hitting
.199 with no home runs.
Since December, I have not
been comfortable with it.
Theres no way to mention
everybody, and that bothers
me.
From managing parts of
two years in the minor
leagues, after thinking
about all the other young
managers who paid a lot of
dues in the minor leagues
and I get a chance and then I
go into the big leagues with
three organizations, he
said. All that equates to me
is Im very, very fortunate.
Ive never put my arms around the fact that
being really lucky is a Hall of Fame credential.

LONG BEACH Top-seeded Americans
Kerri Walsh Jennings and April Ross won the
World Series of Beach Volleyball on Sunday,
beating fth-seeded Agatha Bednarczuk and
Barbara Seixas of Brazil 21-17, 21-17.
We love you, Wash Jennings told the

in the ASICS World Series of Beach
Volleyball and you are dedicated, smart fans.
You got some points for us. We thank you.
The victory was Walsh Jennings 50th on
the FIVB World Tour.
At our best, were really hard to beat,
Walsh Jennings said. That being said,
there are no easy matches. The second game
today, that was so close.
Walsh Jennings and Ross have won seven
titles in 11 events together.
It was a great team win for us, Ross
said. Kerri was playing well on defense
and I was having a little success at the net.
Kerri had them gured out on defense. We
wanted this so bad. We really wanted to win
in Long Beach.
The top-seeded American team of Sean
Rosenthal and Phil Dalhausser won the
mens title, beating second-seeded
Mariusz Prudel and Grzegorz Fjalek of

coach in the Kansas City Royals organization, Hubbard
relies on much of the expertise he gained while playing
for the trio of Hall-of-Fame skippers.
I took something from each one of those managers
that helped make my coaching career, Hubbard said.
Thats a wealth of knowledge right there all different.
Ive been blessed.
Hubbards blessings were evident from the outset of his
professional career. A20th round selection out of Utahs
Ben Lomand High School in 1975, Hubbard was the only
player in his draft class to blossom into a major league
regular. In fact, he went on to accrue 4,441 at-bats in the
big leagues. Not until the 1979 draft would a Braves
draftee go on to surpass that total, when 23rd round pick
Brett Butler ultimately totaled 8,180 at-bats in the
majors.
With Hubbards arrival in the big leagues in 1978,
during Coxs rst tenure with the Braves, he joined
the likes of former rst-round picks Dale Murphy and
Bob Horner. This was amid the beginnings of a revo-
lutionary boon in baseball television broadcasting,
as then Braves owner Ted Turner was launching
Braves TBS Baseball. Hubbard even wore No. 17, the
channel number upon which Superstation WTBS aired
via cable networks across the U.S.
In 1982, Cox was replaced at the helm of the middling
Braves by Torre and the team saw immediate success. In
Torres rst season in Atlanta, he led the Braves to their
rst NLWest crown in 13 years.
We went into spring training we werent supposed
to be anything, Hubbard said. Then we reeled off 13
(wins) in a row.
Indeed, the Braves started the year by winning 13
straight games. By July 29, 1982, they moved out to
their biggest lead in the NL West standings, holding a
nine-game advantage over the second-place Dodgers.
However, that is when things got weird in a hurry. If cur-
rent San Francisco fans think losing a 9 1/2 game lead in
June was bad as the Giants did earlier this season try
doing so heading into August. That is precisely what hap-
pened in 1982, when the Braves went on a 2-19 skid,
including getting swept in two four-game series with the
Dodgers and going 1-5 against the Giants between July
20 and August 18.
The press was saying were losers again were
done, Hubbard said. We came back, we had to go on a
10-day road trip on the West Coast, we had to win seven
out of 10 just to have a chance. We won seven out of 10.
The regular season culminated in one of the most infa-
mous season nales in Giants history, when the Braves
entered it clinging to a one-game lead over the Dodgers in
the standings. With the Braves losing in San Diego earli-
er in the day, a Dodgers win would have forced a one-game
playoff for the NLWest title. But when San Francisco sec-
ond baseman Joe Morgan launched a now infamous three-
run home run in the seventh inning to give the Giants a 5-
3 victory, it dashed the Dodgers playoff hopes, and gave
the Braves the NLWest pennant.
Were all sitting in the clubhouse in San Diego,
[Terry Forster] gives up a home run to Joe Morgan
and that puts us into the playoffs, Hubbard said. It was
phenomenal.
After playing for Cox for two more years during his sec-
ond tenure in Atlanta, Hubbard left via free agency fol-
lowing the 1987 season, signing with the up-and-com-
ing As to play for La Russa. In his rst and only full sea-
son in Oakland, he helped the As to their rst of three
consecutive World Series appearances. But in 1989, after
playing the rst half of the season, Hubbard was released
at the trade deadline. Despite not playing in the postsea-
son for the As World Championship team on 1989,
Hubbard received a World Series ring, and rooted for
Oakland every step of the way.
I thank the Oakland As for the opportunity to play for
them, Hubbard said. Those were great players. You had
power, you had speed, you had starting pitching. We had
middle relievers, we had the closer who was [Hall of Famer
Dennis Eckersley], we had the manager who was as pre-
pared as any manager I have ever been around. So, I was
blessed.
Now three of the managers who spanned most of his
major league career are in the Hall of Fame and Hubbard
said he would like to see his greatest baseball hero some-
day enshrined in Cooperstown as well.
I think Pete Rose should be in the Hall of Fame,
Hubbard said. I think the stuff he did (to receive a lifetime
ban from Major League Baseball) was as a manager. His
player stats, theyre not blemished in any way.
And the reason for Hubbards afnity for Rose can be
summed up in one word hustle.
Hes the watermark for hustle, Hubbard said. That
was his name, Charlie Hustle.And you know what? Son
of a gun, I had a picture of him in my locker when I was in
the minor leagues. He was the one I wanted to play the
game like.

I
ts time for one of my bi-annual myth-busters
columns, starting with this classic: pit bulls
have locking laws. Not so, its physiologically
impossible! Pits have stronger jaws than most
breeds, but they actually shed fth in the only study
I know of that measured dog breeds biting power. A
National Geographic study ranked Rottweilers,
German Shepherds, Mastiffs and Dobermans ahead of
Pits. Heres another one: all Chihuahuas are ankle
biters. True, and they are also calf, knee and nger
biters. Im being just partially serious. The point is,
yes, a Chihuahua or any other dog breed might nip at
your ankles, but you, as an owner, have incredible
control over this. Too often, small dog owners allow
their dogs to nip at them when the dogs are just pups;
its acceptable, cute behavior. But, its also sending
the wrong message. These behaviors should not be
allowed, especially with pups. Personalities are best
molded when the clay is still soft! If your sleeping
dog quivers, twitches and lets out little yelps, hes
having a nightmare and should be woken up, right?
Not so, says most experts who study this. They gen-
erally agree that dogs dream, but also believe those
movements do not indicate dogs are having a night-
mare. Let sleeping dogs lie! Moving to wilder ani-
mals, heres one everyone knows: if you attempt to
place a baby bird back in its nest, the mother will
reject her. Not true! Some babies are pushed out by
mom; its normal development. Those that fall out
accidentally can be placed back in the nest. Are black
cats bad luck? In many cultures, they are considered
good luck. Is declawing relatively harmless? Not at
all, its painful (think of individual amputations) and
can lead to physical problems in your cat down the
road. Do rabbits multiply like all the rabbits multi-
plying jokes suggest? Yes, so if you have an oppo-
site sex couple, get them xed.

LOS ANGELES Luc Bessons
Lucy proved mind can overpower
muscle, topping a remake of
Hercules by director Brett Ratner at
the box ofce on the weekend.
The Universal Pictures-released
movie starring Scarlett Johansson as
an accidental psychokinetic took in
$44 million in North American movie
theaters over the weekend, according
to studio estimates Sunday.
Hercules, starring Dwayne The
Rock Johnson and produced by
Paramount Pictures and Metro-
Goldwyn-Mayer, brought down an
estimated $29 million.
Universals president of domestic
distribution, Nikki Rocco, said audi-
ences were attracted to the original
story about the main character gaining
superhuman powers by using more and
more of her brain.
People also wanted to see Johansson
in an action role, something shes
done more frequently in movies like
The Island (2005), Iron Man 2
(2010), The Avengers (2012) and
Captain America: The Winter Soldier
(2014).
The main reasons for coming to see
the film were the story, and then
Scarlett, Rocco said. Shes very
diversified in what she does. Luc
brought out the best of her in this
movie.
Lucy, rated R, opens internation-
ally next week.
Meanwhile, Johnsons draw with
men, women and
children helped PG-13-rated
Hercules power into the No. 2 spot.
In addition to its domestic haul, the
lm brought in $28.7 million from
Russia, Australia, Britain, Malaysia
and other countries in Asia.
Megan Colligan, Paramounts head
of domestic marketing and distribu-
tion, said Johnson once again proved
his appeal as a global action star who
ghts bad guys with a a wink and a
smile.
He can be very serious and menac-
ing and imposing, and he has this abil-
ity to melt it all away, which is why
women show up for a movie like this,
Colligan said. He has a lot of appeal
for kids.
Johnson himself drove over half of
the buzz on social media platforms
like Twitter, said Benjamin Carlson,
president of tracking rm Fizziology.
They werent talking about any of
the co-stars or Brett Ratner, the direc-
tor, Carlson said. It was all about
The Rock with this lm.
Despite the two lms solid perform-
ances, the summer box ofce is still
down by around one-fth compared to
last year, according to Paul
Dergarabedian, senior media analyst
with Rentrak.
Thats partly because one would-be
huge performer, Fast & Furious 7 was
postponed from its July 11 release due
to the death of actor Paul Walker, he
said. This summer also lacked some
other blockbuster sequels like last
years Despicable Me 2.
That puts a lot of pressure on
Guardians of the Galaxy, a Marvel
superhero lm being released in the
U.S. next week, to outperform, he
said.
Even though it features lesser-
known characters, including Chris
Pratt as Peter Quill and Zoe Saldana as
Gamora, it could still break out,
Dergarabedian said.
Any time you have a Marvel movie
in the summer, its still a factor, he
said.
Another lm that opened in wide
release over the weekend was the Rob
Reiner-directed romantic comedy And
So It Goes, starring Michael Douglas
and Diane Keaton, which collected an
estimated $4.6 million, according to
distributor Clarius Entertainment.
Boyhood, a Richard Linklater lm
that tracks the life of a boy from age 5
to 18, gained traction in its third week
of release by distributor IFC Films
with $1.7 million from just 107 loca-
tions.
Estimated ticket sales for Friday
through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian
theaters, according to Rentrak. Where
available, latest international num-
bers are also included. Final domestic
gures will be released on Monday.

was drafted and has spurred a dispute
between a San Mateo electricians
union, a solar energy subcontrac-
tor, Devcon and the city.
Terry Lee, associate head of
Nueva School, said he could not
comment on the dispute.
Lim said he spoke with a Devcon
representative who said the solar
portion of the project came up last
minute and, in trying to have the
project completed by August, admit-
ted the company violated the PLA.
The proper procedure would have
been to hold a meeting announcing
the change to allow everyone an
opportunity to bid for the job,
according to multiple sources.
Devcon Controller Bret Sisney
said the company followed the PLA
and the unions could have requested
a meeting once the solar compo-
nent was added. Sisney said he did-
nt know when solar panels were
added to the project and the repre-
sentative who informed Lim of the
companys violation did not return
a request for comment.
Laborers or electricians
The fact that its solar installa-
tion further complicates the situa-
tion, as state agencies have deter-
mined solar panels can be installed
by various tradesmen and laborers.
Luminalt Solar Energ y
Solutions was awarded the job and
is using union laborers from San
Mateo County and San Francisco,
CEO Jeanine Cotter said.
Luminalt was not aware of the dis-
pute at the time it entered into the
PLAand its work is being disrupt-
ed by other union representatives
showing up at the job site and
videotaping workers, Cotter said.
Representatives from the
International Brotherhood of
Electrical Workers, Local Union
617, said the PLA was violated
when Devcon hired Luminalt as
they were never given an opportu-
nity to discuss the job. IBEW also
contends the laborers are getting
paid lower wages and some are from
outside of San Mateo County.
Underlying the dispute are two
jurisdictional conicts. The rst is
who should install solar laborers
or electricians and the second is
whether the union members live in
San Francisco or San Mateo
County.
As a new technology, there isnt
an industry standard as to who
should be awarded solar installa-
tion work, Cotter said.
A variety of unions claim solar.
There is no solar installer union,
were a relatively young industry.
... So we are in the middle of a juris-
dictional dispute between the IBEW
and the laborers about who owns
solar work, Cotter said. There is
great work thats being done out
there and its being overshadowed
and its really sad.
Cotter said shes passionate
about the environment and hiring
people of diverse backgrounds.
Being able to use qualied laborers
who charge less than electricians
allows more companies to go solar
but, in light of the controversy,
Luminalt hired an IBEWsingle con-
tractor to help smooth things over,
Cotter said.
IBEW Business Manager Mark
Leach said the very nature of solar
panels is to create electricity and
should therefore be electricians
work. However, this case isnt
about what type of tradesmen were
awarded the job, its about the
process and hiring San Mateo
County residents, Leach said.
The community of San Mateo
works really hard at turning an old
race track into an economic engine
for the county and the city and a lot
of promises were made, Leach
said. Theyre not following the
PLA and the whole idea was to cre-
ate the best possible environment
to create jobs.
Creating jobs locally
Councilman Jack Matthews said
although the city couldnt require a
PLA, part of the motivating factor
for approving Bay Meadows was
the idea that it would provide jobs
locally.
David De La Tore, a business
agent for Laborers Local 261, is
working for Luminalt and said most
of the 12 union laborers are from
the county.
Everyone is working to allay the
issues to ensure the work is com-
pleted by the time the school is
ready to open, De La Tore said.
Solar is really touchy because
its an open market and people are
jockeying for positions, De La
Tore said. But someone dropped
the ball, and it usually falls on the
general contractor.
Lim said even if theres nothing
the city can legally do, he wants to
create a resolution expressing dis-
appointment with Devcon for not
honoring the PLA throughout the
entire project.
I would like to us to take a strong
stance in enforcing project labor
agreements, even when were not a
party to them, Lim said. Because
over the years, the council has
taken a strong stance in supporting
local labor groups to get jobs in our
city. Because number one, we think
its good for the community and its
good for the project.

retained the main kitchen staff of
Bow Thai but added her twist by
altering the ingredients and
spices to up the avor ante of tra-
ditional menu offerings.
Buntora said she lived a com-
fortable life in Bangkok but
immigrated to the United States
for her children so they could be
educated in the West and have a
chance for a better future.
It is difcult to nd a job in the
U.S. with a Thai accent and lack
of transferable skills, Buntora
said. She said she thought of
ways she could support her fami-
ly and realized her love for food
and Thai cuisine could equate to
starting a restaurant.
Today, Buntora is often found
sitting and chatting at the tables
of her patrons if she is not busy
in the kitchen overseeing the
execution of orders. She speaks
openly about the struggles of
owning a restaurant but remains
optimistic about the future while
taking in the daily experience.
I have no prot right now, my
prices are low and reasonable so
people can eat, Buntora said,
but Im getting busier because I
dont just sell food, I sell myself, I
sell my passion, I sell my love.
Must try dishes:
Pad Thai, savory with a hint
of sweetness and the chewable
rice noodles pair well with fresh,
crisp bean sprouts.
Khao Soi, soup with thin
egg noodles and chicken in a
creamy red curry sauce. It is
topped with a bed of crunchy fried
noodles to add an element of tex-
ture while the cilantro, red onions
and bean sprouts add freshness to
contrast the rich avors.
Papaya Salad, shredded
green papaya, tomatoes, and
green beans tossed in a tangy and
sweet dressing with a hint of gar-
lic and red pepper spice.
Pa-Naeng Curry, tradition-
al Thai curry is light and simple
yet flavorful. Served with a
choice of meat, red and green bell
peppers and basil.

Corsiglia, 50, is facing 30 years to
life for two counts of second-degree
murder in the crash. In addition to the
multiple drivers he injured, Corsiglia
also killed cousins Arnulfo Picazo, 39,
of San Bruno, and Usbaldo Picazo
Gomez, 37, of South San Francisco,
after having a seizure while driving
exactly two years ago today.
The pair were on their way to pick up
beverages for a baptism celebration
when Corsiglia suffered a seizure and
slammed his vehicle into several east-
bound cars at an El Camino Real stop-
light while driving east on Sneath
Lane just after noon.
Two adults and a 9-year-old boy were
also hospitalized with serious injuries.
One of those adults, Mary Chan, led
suit against Corsiglia as did the fami-
lies of the two cousins.
According to Salgados suit, he was
driving a Dodge Ram when Corsiglia
hit the Toyota Corolla behind him and
forced the car to rear-end the truck.
Prosecutors charged Corsiglia with
murder because they said he was legally
forbidden from driving due to his petite
mal seizure history and had a record of
other crashes due to the condition.
The civil suits, including the one
led at the end of last week by Salgado,
echo the sentiment.
Corsiglia acted with malice and
conscious disregard for the rights and
safety of Salgado, his suit states.
Corsiglias drivers license was per-
manently suspended in 2011 but his
record of crashes linked to the condi-
tion date back to 2002. Between 2002
and 2011, Corsiglia had seven trafc
accidents. Six were between 2007 and
2011 and all were reported to involve
speeding and seizures. One day in
2007, Corsiglia reportedly left one
Redwood City accident that injured
three to rent a new car. Afew hours later
in San Bruno, he reportedly ran a stop
sign and broadsided a car with two pas-
sengers before running off an embank-
ment and into a tree.
A case management conference in
the latest civil suit is scheduled for
Nov. 26.

appropriate notications, he wrote in
an email.
The new proposed address is down-
town, so it should work well, Deal
said. Deal agrees parking shouldnt be
too much of an issue.
I dont see any problem with it all,
he said. When people go to the post
ofce, they do multiple things; theyll
nd parking.
Conversely, Councilman Ricardo
Ortiz does worry parking will be a prob-
lem at the 329 Primrose Road location.
Mayor Michael Brownrigg agreed.
Coincidentally, it is very near
where the post ofce used to be long
ago, he said. We have some ques-
tions about the parking, but I think
its a ne location near the civic area
of City Hall and the library.
Meanwhile, the Postal Service does
have a potential buyer in negotiations
for the old post ofce building at 220
Park Road, but not under contract. The
Postal Service is hoping to be com-
pleted with negotiations and closing
within about three months, Wigdel
said. There is one known possible
buyer. Grosvenor, an international
property development, investment
and fund management group, put for-
ward a mixed-use project using lot E
located between Lorton Avenue, Park
Road, Burlingame Avenue and Howard
Avenue and the adjacent post ofce.
Burlingame Public Works Director
Syed Murtuza previously said the com-
pany has expressed interest in buying
the post ofce property as well. Its
unclear who is in the nal running for
the property though.
Other councilmembers expressed
their sadness in seeing the old build-
ing go.
We will all miss our beautiful, large
post office but understand the U.S.
Postal Services need to downsize and
save money, Vice Mayor Terry Nagel
previously said.

POST
on his expedition with far fewer men
than he originally had planned on using.
Vizcaino became very cautious and
kept far from the rocky shore to avoid
the danger of being wrecked and sunk.
He found out after passing the Los
Angeles area that along the coast was a
mountain range that had steep cliffs
near the shore and very few good har-
bors. After he arrived at Monterey in
January 1603 and after naming a point
he sighted Punta de Ano Nuevo for
the day it was sighted (New Years)
he mapped the bay. It would be more
than 160 years before any Spanish
ship dropped anchor in that bay.
Portolas expedition discovered the
San Francisco Bay in November 1769
then returned to San Diego. It was not
until 1775 that an expedition, one on
land and one on sea, was sent to the
Bay Area from Monterey. After all
ships had missed seeing the entrance to
the Bay for hundreds of years, Lt. Juan
Manuel Ayala commanded the ship San
Carlos into the Bay in August 1775 to
map the area for six weeks. He had left
Monterey Harbor on July 26, 1775.
The sailing ships of the time were at
a great disadvantage when traveling
along the coast of California. Shoals
and reefs appeared numerous places and
submerged rocks could rip the bottom
out of a boat. If this were not enough,
fog would sometimes cover miles of
ocean for weeks at a time.
Attempts of nd a good harbor along
the San Mateo Coast proved futile.
W.W. Weddell built a wharf by Ano
Nuevo but that ended in failure. On May
1, 1853 the ship, Carrier Pigeon, with
Capt. Azariah Donne at the helm, was
wrecked on the rocks. On Jan. 7, 1865,
the clipper ship, Sir John Franklin,
was wrecked north of Ano Nuevo. In
1868, Josiah Ames erected a pier at
Mairmar in 1868 but the weather and a
re stopped that enterprise. In 1868,
Capt. Soule of the ship, Hellespoint,
lost his ship near Pigeon Point with
the loss of 27 souls. This wreck
prompted a movement that resulted in
the erection of the Pigeon Point
Lighthouse in 1872. Finally, relief was
given to the many lost ships that plied
the coast through the fog, wind and
adverse currents.
Due to the water hazards at Point
Montara, a steam whistle was erected in
1875. It took a tremendous amount of
coal to maintain the re for the steam
whistle so, in 1900, a whale oil lamp
was set up to warn the vessels along this
area. Later, a Fresnel lamp was installed.
Needless to say, these instruments
were helpful but, nevertheless, the
coast still posed numerous dangers to
ships. The fog was especially danger-
ous. In 1897, the Columbia was strand-
ed off of Pigeon Point Lighthouse.
Thousands of gallons of white paint
were salvaged by residents of the area
and within the following year, every
house within a short distance of the
stranded ship acquired a new coat of
white paint.
In 1898, the ship, New York, ran
aground off of Arleta Park in Half Moon
Bay. Its load of whiskey was saved by
the residents of the area. Mussel Rock
in Daly City was the scene of the sink-
ing ship, William Grifford. Sharps
Park was the site of a ship that ran
ashore in 1909. So long as the wind
blows and the fog prevails, ships are in
danger while sailing along the San
Mateo County coast.
Rediscovering the Peninsula by Darold
Fredricks appears in the Monday edi-
tion of the Daily Journal.

id you know that 30 million Americans
suffer from back and neck pain every day?
Sciatica and herniated discs are often
misunderstood. They can cause pain and
numbness in the back, neck, legs, and feet. This
pain affects everything that you do, from work
to play, and ultimately your quality of life. We
are here to tell you that there is hope. We have
the technology and experience to help you fnd
relief from sciatica and back pain. At Bay Area
Disc Centers, we have helped thousands of pain
sufferers just like you. We offer only the most
advanced non-surgical treatments.
Are pain pills effective, long-term solutions
when dealing with Sciatica and Back Pain?
ABSOLUTELY NOT!
Until now, people have masked their pain by
frequently taking prescription pain pills. This
type of pain relief is temporary. Often these
treatments lead to even more health problems
or worse yet addiction. Many people innocently
fall into abusing prescription pain pills while
initially using them to alleviate real, constant pain.
Is Surgery the Answer?
It is true that surgery may be the answer for
certain types of back injuries. When considering
your options, ask yourself this question
If there is a solution to back pain that doesnt
require surgery, is it worth exploring?
The Solution: TDC
TM
Therapy
TDC TherapyTraction Decompression Combined
Therapyis a proven treatment exclusive to Disc
Centers of America doctors for the relief of neck
and lower back pain. By utilizing traction thats
isolated to the spinal segment involved, the
purpose is to create spinal decompression as a
result to specifc traction.
TDC Therapy offers a significant success rate
and patients have experienced dramatic pain
relief and healing. This non surgical solution
is changing the way doctors treat severe disc
conditions. TDC Therapy is a unique and
innovative approach for the relief of neck and
lower back syndromes, including:
Herniated or buging discs
De-generative disc disease
Posterior facet syndrome
Spina Stenosis
Sciatica
TDC Therapy is non surgical and non invasive. It is
a gentle form of traction and disc decompression.
The treatment is not only safe, but also
comfortable and relaxing. The goal is symptomatic
relief and structural correction.
How Does TDC
TM
Therapy Work?
TDC Therapy can isolate a specifc vertebra and
distract the vertebrae surrounding an injured
disc 5 to 7 millimeters. TDC Therapy treatment
isolates the specific vertebrae that are causing
the pain. The 25 to 30 minute treatment
provides static, intermittent, and cycling
forces on structures that may be causing
back pain. Negative pressure promotes the
diffusion of water, oxygen, and nutrients into
the vertebral disc area, thereby re-hydrating
the degenerated disc. Repeated pressure
differential promotes retraction of a herniated
nucleus pulposus.
The TDC Therapy treatment works to reduce
pressure on the vertebral joints,promote
retraction of herniated discs, and promote self
healing and rehabilitation of damaged discs,
thereby relieving neck or lower back pain.
Why Bay Area Disc Centers
Dr. Thomas Ferrigno D.C. and his team have vast
experience in treating patients suffering from
severe disc disease. Dr. Ferrigno has performed
over 25,000 decompression treatments and
is currently only 1 of 2 doctors in the state of
California who is Nationally Certied in Spinal
Decompression Therapy. Dr. Ferrigno is also part
of the Disc Centers of America Team who are a
national group of doctors that have gone through
extensive training that follow the protocols set up
by The International Medical Advisory Board on
Spinal Decompression, and utilizes the protocols
set forward by Dr. Norman Sheay the Honorary
Chairman, former Harvard professor, and probaby
the most published doctor in the world on spinal
decompression therapy.
