Final pipe laid in $4.8 billion seismic upgrade

San Francisco Public Utilities Commission replaces San Bruno
line, is nearing end of Water System Improvement Program
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

A multi-billion dollar project aimed at

ensuring more than 2.6 million Bay Area
residents will have access to water after
an earthquake is wrapping up with the
San
Francisco
Public
Utilities
Commission finishing one of its last
pipeline upgrades this week.
Now, just one project remains on the
Peninsula as part of the SFPUCs $4.8
billion Water System Improvement
Program, which took nearly a decade to
plan and is comprised of numerous proj-

ects throughout the Hetch Hetchy

Reservoir delivery system.
As a region prone to seismic activity
and drought, the SFPUC recognized the
importance of updating the system in
which much of the infrastructure dates
back to the 1920s, said Dan Wade, director of the Water System Improvement
Program.
A United States Geological survey a
few years back predicted that weve got
more than a 60 percent chance that within the next 30 years, theres going to be a
major earthquake on one of the three
major faults within the Bay Area the

Calaveras, the Hayward or the San

Andreas. And our system crosses all
three of those major faults, Wade said.
So we truly are in a race against time to
get these upgrades in place so that were
ready for that major earthquake.
The importance of tending to aging
infrastructure was underscored this July
when a 54-inch pipeline ruptured and
leaked nearly 15 million gallons in San
Bruno. This week, the SFPUC will wrap
up a project that would have supplemented the broken line and prevented the loss
of valuable treated drinking water.

a disaster
Redwood City pilot program
kicks off with a rough start
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

After the long holiday weekend, Redwood City residents

bound for work Tuesday morning on Farm Hill Boulevard
found what many described as a traffic disaster as the thoroughfare has been reduced to three lanes for safety reasons.
The council approved a one-year pilot program in January to
reduce the number of lanes from four to three, with a left turn
center lane and two bicycle lanes, on Farm Hill Boulevard and
Jefferson Avenue.

Saturation enforcement through holiday weekend

I think the most important thing about
DUI enforcement is impressing upon people that you shouldnt

STATE GOVERNMENT
The state Senate passed
Assembly Bill 1465 Monday authorizing the California Department of
Motor Vehicles to require anyone
applying for an original driver license
or identication card to show proof of
residency.
Assemblyman Rich Gordon, D-Menlo Park, authored
the bill to bring California toward full compliance with the
federal REAL ID Act. If California fails to fully implement
provisions of the REAL ID Act, federal agencies would be

for DUI offenders, according to Daly City

police.
The local event was funded in part by a
grant from the National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration, which estimated
10,076 people were killed in alcohol-impaired
driving crashes in the United States in 2013
alone. In California, there were 867 deaths
due to DUI offenders, according to the Daly
City police.
In continuing efforts to deter drivers from
getting behind the wheel, law enforcement
will conduct more regional efforts during
Halloween and during a December winter
DUI campaign, according to Daly City police.
While many drivers respond to the threat of
$10,000 cab ride straight to jail, Decker said
theres much more at risk.
I think the most important thing about DUI
enforcement is impressing upon people that
you shouldnt just be worried about arrests,
Decker said. Really, what it comes down to is
you could hurt someone or yourself or in
worst case, kill someone.

The Senate passed the legislation Monday in a vote of 380. The Assembly passed AB 1465 with a vote of 78-0 in June.
The bill now goes to Gov. Jerry Brown for consideration.

It can be a very expensive arrest for a
moment when you could have called a taxi or
Uber, Decker said.
Across the country, thousands are killed
every year by drunk drivers and, over the last
18 days in San Mateo County, there were six
injury collisions involving drivers under the
influence, according to Daly City police.
Its very important to take drunk drivers
off the street to avoid collisions or injuries
during the holidays, said Redwood City
police Lt. Sean Hart.
All of the injury accidents were reported by
California Highway Patrols Redwood City
division and included one Aug. 21, three on
Aug. 23 and two on Sept. 2.
The campaign also involved two checkpoints including one Friday, Aug. 28, in
Belmont as well as a Sept. 4 locale in San
Carlos. There were also 19 special saturation
patrols throughout the county that involved
two officer vehicles specifically looking just

Law enforcement throughout San Mateo

County arrested 126 people for driving under
the influence as part of this years Drive
Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign.
The 18-day enforcement culminated with
Labor Day weekend and officials were
pleased to announce there were fewer arrests
than last year.
Police from every department in the county,
San Mateo County sheriffs deputies and
California Highway Patrol officers participated in making arrests, issuing citations or stepping up their presence.
Last year, about 159 people were arrested
for DUI, down from those who were caught
driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol between Aug. 21 and Sept. 7 this year.
Known as the Avoid the 23 DUI Task
Force a reference to the number of law
enforcement agencies in the county the
goal is to prevent fatalities and make people
think twice before driving drunk.
History shows that there are these reoccurring holidays where the DUIs and DUI crashes and fatalities go up. So part of our effort is
just to go out there and stop the drivers before
they get killed or kill, said San Mateo police
Sgt. Rick Decker.

Gas prices on way down

Fuel costs plunge, further drop expected
By Rachel Matsuoka
BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE

Bay Area gas prices have plunged in the past

month and are expected to drop even further
with the approach of autumn, according to
AAAs latest gas survey released Monday.
The average price per gallon in the Bay Area
is currently $3.13, down 25 cents from the previous month. In the Bay Area, Fremont gas
prices decreased the most by 41 cents from last
month, now costing $3.01 per gallon. Concord
maintains the lowest gas prices in the region at
$3 per gallon and the average price for a gallon
of gas in San Mateo is now $3.18, down 23
cents from last month, according to the AAA
survey.
San Francisco experienced the regions
smallest monthly decrease in gas prices at 20
cents, and has consistently been home to the
highest gas prices in the Bay Area. Gas in San
Francisco now costs about $3.27 per gallon,
according to the survey.
Findings of the AAA survey also indicated

that Labor Day weekend gas prices were the

lowest they have been at that time of year in
more than a decade.
AAA Northern California spokeswoman
Cynthia Harris credits the drop in gas prices to
an oversupply of crude oil and record highs
in refinery output.
Harris expects that this is not the end of the
declining gas prices.
Nationwide, prices are expected to continue
to drop through the fall, Harris said in a statement. This expectation is contingent upon the
price of crude [oil] remaining relatively low
and refineries being able to perform routine
maintenance as they switch to the lower cost
winter formulation.
According to AAA, every Sept. 16 refineries
in many parts of the country switch over to a
winter blend of gasoline that is less expensive
than the summer blend.
The summer blend of gasoline is required by
the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in
some regions to address air quality issues during the summer months, according to AAA.

Clerk who fought gay marriage released from jail

By Adam Beam
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

GRAYSON, Ky. The Kentucky county

clerk jailed for refusing to issue marriage
licenses to gay couples was released Tuesday
after five days behind bars, emerging to a
tumultuous heros welcome from thousands of
supporters waving large white crosses.
I just want to give God the glory. His people have rallied, and you are a strong people,
Kim Davis told the crowd after stepping outside, her arms raised like a victorious boxer, to
the blaring Rocky-sequel theme song Eye
of the Tiger.
Her lawyer refused to say whether she
would defy the courts again.
Kim cannot and will not violate her conscience, said Mat Staver, founder of the
Liberty Counsel, the Christian law firm representing Davis. As for whether she will issue
licenses, Staver said only: Youll find out in
the near future.
The Rowan County clerk whose defiance
has made her a hero to many on the religious
right walked free after the federal judge who
ordered her locked up lifted the contempt ruling against her, saying he was satisfied that
her deputies were fulfilling their obligation to
grant licenses to same-sex couples in her
absence.
But U.S. District Judge David Bunning also
warned Davis not to interfere again, or else
she could wind up back in jail.
Davis, 49, has refused to resign her
$80,000-a-year job. As an elected official, she

can lose her post only if she is defeated for reelection or is impeached by the state General
Assembly. The latter is unlikely, given the legislatures conservative slant.
As the surprise news of her impending
release spread, a crowd of dozens of supporters who had gathered on the jailhouse lawn for
a previously scheduled rally swelled to thousands. They broke into Amazing Grace and
God Bless America and waved signs, flags
and crosses.
Cries of thanks to Jesus echoed through the
crowd as Davis emerged next to Republican
presidential candidate Mike Huckabee and her
husband, Joe, who was in overalls and a straw
hat. Huckabee and fellow GOP White House
candidate Sen. Ted Cruz visited her at the jail
just after the decision came down.
If somebody has to go to jail, Im willing
to go in her place, said Huckabee, a former
Baptist minister and Arkansas governor. She
has shown more courage than any politician I
know.
Natalie Ferguson, who came to the rally
from Elora, Tennessee, said: We have to
stand because if we sit back and be quiet, you
know then as a Christian community were
going to get run over.
Davis was locked up on Thursday for the
boldest act of resistance by a public official
yet to the U.S. Supreme Court ruling in June
that effectively legalized same-sex marriage
across the nation. Citing Gods authority
and her belief that gay marriage is a sin,
Davis, an Apostolic Christian, stopped issuing
all marriage licenses.

Little House rethinks programs

Wood shop set to close to make room for new offerings
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Seniors who rely on Little House in Menlo

Park to help fill their days with activities will
have to do without the wood shop and lapidary workshop as the nonprofit rethinks its
programming.
The two programs will be eliminated as
Little House officials consider how best to use
the vast spaces they filled at Little House,
Roslyn G. Morris Activity Center on Middle
Avenue.
The programs have had dedicated spaces at
Little House, which prevent the rooms from
being used for other activities such as dance or
exercise or computer skills training, said Little
House Director Peter Olson.
The wood shop only served five to seven
people a week and the space could serve many
more individuals with different programming,
he said.
We are reenvisioning Little House and are
trying to find ways to stay relevant in the
future, Olson said Tuesday.
The nonprofit established a Fresh Start
Committee to help it determine what seniors
are looking for when it comes to activities.
In the meantime, Ric Springer, who has

California guards charged

with inmates murder, assault
SAN JOSE Three Northern California
jail guards accused of beating to death a mentally ill inmate have also been charged with
assaulting another prisoner, prosecutors
announced Tuesday.
The three Santa Clara County jail guards
were arrested last week after Michael Tyree,
31, was found beaten to death his cell shortly
after midnight Aug. 27.
The three guards were formally charged
with murder Tuesday. Prosecutors also
charged the three with assaulting inmate Juan
Villa the night Tyree died.
Guards Jereh Lubrin, Rafael Rodriguez and
Matthew Farris appeared in court Tuesday, but
they didnt enter a plea. They remain jailed in
Alameda County without bail.
Rodriguez denied involvement in Tyrees
death in a jailhouse interview with the San
Jose Mercury News published Sunday.
These men violated the law, human dignity, and the job that they were sworn to do,
District Attorney Jeff Rosen said

taught woodworking at Little House for 25

years, is saddened by the shops closing and is
looking for other space to continue teaching
the craft.
Springer, 95, started volunteering at Little
House after retirement when he was 70 years
old.
I was under the impression that Little
House was dedicated to provide a variety of
activities. To shut down one or more opportunities for senior activities after more than 25
years is very disappointing for the community.
But to tell a small dedicated group to get out
within 30 days and take the machinery, tools,
equipment and materials with them knowing
full well that they have no place to go seems
downright unconscionable, Springer wrote in
an email.
Olson said eliminating the programs is not
about money but more about what programs
will best serve the Little House population.
We are engaging the community to see
what seniors today are looking for, Olson
said. Ric is fantastic. Its unfortunate.
The spaces where the wood and jewelrymaking shops are will likely be geared more
toward fitness programs, he said.
Were still talking about programming, he
said.

WASHINGTON The Obama administration wants to help its allies across the Atlantic
with an escalating migrant crisis, but is unlikely to open Americas doors to vast numbers of
Syrian and other refugees arriving each day by
the thousands in Europe.
While Germany braces for some 800,000
asylum seekers this year, many of whom are
fleeing Syrias civil war, the U.S. isnt saying
if it will increase its worldwide quota for resettling refugees from 70,000. Only a fraction of
those would be Syrians, who must first navigate a multiyear application process before
learning if they can start a new life in the
United States.
Secretary of State John Kerry plans to brief
members of the House and Senate Judiciary
committees on Wednesday about how many
Syrian refugees the U.S. is willing to take in.
When it comes to the current migrant challenge, the U.S. and Europe are clearly in different places. Whereas the United States is
separated by an ocean from the Middle East

Wednesday marks the completion of the San

Andreas Pipeline No. 3 a 1,100-foot segment
of a 66-inch line that runs through San Bruno
and can now withstand a 7.9-magnitude earthquake. Had this project been finalized just a few
months earlier, it could have been used instead
of allowing the ruptured San Andreas Pipeline
No. 2 to continue running which was necessary for more than 12 hours to make sure customers in San Bruno and North Coast County
Water District topped off their supplies and had
enough pressure for fire service.
Had the new line been in service just a few
months earlier, life would have been a lot easier, said Steven Ritchie, SFPUCs assistant
general manager of water. They needed to have
time to fill up their storage and get their alternative water supplies.
The rupture-caused influx of water flowed
into an existing creek and also prompted the
closure of Junipero Serra Park in San Bruno. A
temporary fix took nearly two weeks before the
surrounding communities were again serviced
by the pipe and, with the No. 3 line in action,
permanent repairs to the ruptured pipe will
begin soon.
The pipeline replacement was part of the
ratepayer-funded improvement program, which
is comprised of numerous projects including the
first tunnel to ever be drilled underneath the San
Francisco Bay floor.
The 5-mile long San Francisco Bay Tunnel
diverted another aging set of pipes that was estimated to have leaked between 52.5 million gallons and 65.7 million gallons of water over the
course of the last four or five years.
Between the drought highlighting the need to
maintain proper storage systems and predicted
seismic activity, finalizing system upgrades are
as critical as ever, Ritchie and Wade said.

it an obvious destination for people fleeing
war, persecution and poverty. And there are no
gut-wrenching images of refugees drowning
while trying to swim or smuggle their way
across 3,000 miles of open sea.
Still, a spokesman for the National Security
Council said Monday the U.S. was actively
considering steps to alleviate the situation in
Europe, where more than 340,000 people from
the Middle East, Africa and Asia now have
arrived. Beyond Syria, many are also fleeing
parts of Iraq that are under the Islamic State
groups control.
The spokesman, Peter Boogaard, said the
steps could include refugee resettlement and
White House press secretary Josh Earnest on
Tuesday said a range of approaches was
being studied. But as for taking more Syrians
and others in, Earnest said, There is a process
for doing this.
That process, as it currently stands, is slow.
Refugees wait around three years to find out if
they can move to the United States, meaning
Washington wouldnt be able to offer quick
assistance.
The whole Water System Improvement
Program was intended to make sure that we
have reliability into the future, Ritchie said.
One of the things our analysis showed, was if
we have a major earthquake in the system, the
Peninsula could have been out of water for six
months. So all of these projects that weve been
doing that were just getting close to the end of
now, were to make sure that this water would be
reliably available for people on a routine basis
and in an earthquake.
The SFPUC wholesales water to nearly all
San Mateo County suppliers and the new pipe
can more reliably transmit drinking water coming from the recently revamped Harry Tracy
Water Treatment Plant in San Bruno.
The $278 million upgrade culminated in April
with the treatment plant renovations now able to
provide 140 million gallons of water a day for
up to 60 days within 24 hours of a major earthquake.
Repairs to the San Andreas pipeline allow the
SFPUC and its customers to realize the benefits
of the treatment plant upgrade, Wade said.
With nearly 83 projects across seven counties,
the entire program is slated to replace more than
280 miles of pipeline. Its exciting to see the
costly effort nearing completion and the San
Bruno improvements mark the last major line
repaired as part of the program.
While many dont think much about water
until it becomes a problem, the SFPUC is striving to make sure the utility can sustain its customers well into the future, Wade and Ritchie
said.
Its fantastic. A program like this takes quite
a few years to plan and design. To see them
come to reality and construction, were 90 percent complete, by the time were done, itll be
about a 15-year period from beginning to end,
Wade said. At that point, we can celebrate the
fact that we completed the Water System
Improvement Program. But the work never
stops and we still have portions of the system
that we need to continue to repair and replace to
keep those service goals.

Carson calls for guest-worker status

Hillary Clinton signs autographs for supporters at a campaign event.

For Clinton, an apology at

last for email controversy
By Julie Pace
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON It took three interviews

and five days for Hillary Rodham Clinton to
say Im sorry.
After resisting apologizing for using a personal email account run on a private server to
conduct government business as secretary of
state, Clinton shifted course Tuesday.
That was a mistake, she said of her email
practice. Im sorry about that. I take responsibility, the front-runner for the Democratic
presidential nomination said in an interview
with ABC News.
Clintons late-arriving mea culpa came just
24 hours after she insisted in an interview with
the Associated Press she didnt need to apologize because what I did was allowed. That
comment came after a sit-down with NBC
News on Friday, in which Clinton said only that
she was sorry if her actions had caused voters
any confusion.
The apology evolution is the latest chapter
for an issue that has dogged Clintons presidential campaign for months. Despite a big
fundraising advantage and a slew of endorsements from party leaders, Clintons standing
with voters has slipped multiple polls show
a majority of Americans dont find her honest
and trustworthy.
After the shaky summer, Clintons advisers
say shell more fully address the email saga as
the campaign presses into the fall. Top campaign officials have started emailing memos to

anxious supporters and convening late-night

conference calls with prominent Democrats.
Clintons string of national interviews around
the Labor Day weekend was supposed to be
part of that process a signal that the candidate herself was on board with the idea of being
more forthcoming. Or, as Clinton told AP, to
take responsibility and be as transparent as
possible.
Yet in that same interview, while offering a
more contrite tone when pressed about her
decision to work outside the State
Departments email system, Clinton also rejected the idea that an apology was necessary.
What I did was allowed, she said. It was
allowed by the State Department. The State
Department has confirmed that.
While Clintons campaign offered no immediate explanation for why she changed her
mind on an apology, the fact that she did suggests an acceptance that it was untenable to
continue avoiding saying the words Im
sorry.
Clinton isnt the first politician take their
time reaching that conclusion.
It took 2012 GOP presidential nominee Mitt
Romney weeks to disavow his comments suggesting 47 percent of Americans believed they
were victims and entitled to government services. President Barack Obama at first resisted
apologizing to Americans who lost their existing health insurance after adoption of the
Affordable Care Act despite his promises they
would not. He, too, ultimately said he was
sorry.

SAN FRANCISCO Republican presidential hopeful Ben Carson jabbed Tuesday

at front-runner Donald Trumps proposal to
deport everyone who is in the country illegally, calling the plan impractical.

that would entail legally and otherwise,

send them?

Pope simplifies, speeds up the

marriage annulment process

Francis radically reformed the
process for annulling marriages
Tuesday, overhauling 300 years of
church practice by creating a new
fast-track annulment and doing
away with an automatic appeal that
often slowed the process down.The
move, which came a week after he
said he was letting all rank-and-file
priests grant absolution to women
who have had abortions, was further evidence of his desire to make
the church more responsive to the
needs of ordinary faithful.
The new law on annulments goes
into effect Dec. 8, the start of

yearlong jubilee during which the
pope hopes to emphasize the merciful side of the church. It will

Pope Francis

on

A Catholic needs a church annulment to remarry in the church, and
a divorced Catholic who remarries
civilly without one is considered

Democrats clinch critical

votes for Iran nuclear deal
By Erica Werner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Pressing their

advantage, the White House and
insistent Senate Democrats locked
up the votes Tuesday to frustrate
attempts by outraged Republicans to
pass a legislative rebuke to the Iran
nuclear accord.
Four previously undeclared
Senate Democrats Richard
Blumenthal of Connecticut, Ron
Wyden of Oregon, Gary Peters of
Michigan and Maria Cantwell of
Washington state announced
their support for the international

agreement in a coordinated burst.

That pushed supporters to a 42-vote
total, one more than necessary to
block a GOP disapproval resolution
with a filibuster, and prevent a final
vote.
There is no better deal available
now, declared Blumenthal, one of
the Senates Jewish Democrats,
announcing his support for an
accord that is strongly opposed by
Israeli leaders as well as Republican
senators.
Blumenthal, Wyden and Peters
were among just a handful of undeclared senators and were all considered possible no votes. Coming on
the first day of Congress fall session

after a five-week summer recess,

their announcements were a dramatic start to what promises to be a bitter, partisan debate on the deal aimed
at curbing Irans nuclear program.
The debate will take on some of
the trappings of a political circus
Wednesday with presidential candidate Donald Trump preparing to
headline an anti-accord rally outside
the Capitol.
It will play out at the start of a hectic three weeks on Capitol Hill.

OConnell, Salazar for San Bruno council

rogress in San Bruno has

always been slow going, and
many of its residents like it that
way. The city is working class through
and through with a core of good-hearted and hard-working residents who
understand the importance, and value,
of community.
So while much of the Bay Area and
the Peninsula is boom-boom, San
Bruno is awakening to seeing the possibility of its future. Managing that future
while retaining its charm and character
is paramount. There are three people
running for two open seats on the City
Council. They are longtime incumbent
Irene OConnell, incumbent Michael
Salazar and challenger Marty Medina.
Medina ran a spirited campaign in
2013 for one of two open seats on the
council with a focus on the citys infrastructure and water and sewer rates. He
brings that same issue to the forefront
once again with ideas on how best to
meet the citys needs without overburdening its residents with high rates.
One idea is to have the citys workers
do the infrastructure repair rather than
contractors. While it is important to
keep as much of the citys work in
house, there are also opportunities for

Editorial
cost savings through well-negotiated
contracts. As far as water and sewer
rates, his voice has been heard and
there will be opportunities to revisit
those rates in future years. Medina
brings much to the table and his
involvement and questions provide a
service to not only the council and staff
but the citys residents as well.
However, OConnell and Salazar
have a wider breadth of ideas and experience on the council that will better
serve the city right now. OConnell is
rmly trenched in the city and has a
good understanding of its communityminded philosophy though, at times,
has some difculty expressing it in a
polished way. But thats OK. Not all
members of a city council require polish, but rather a veneer burnished
through hard work and community
understanding. Salazar has a rm grip
on the citys business and is getting his
footing when it comes to standing up
for what he believes. He acknowledges
the city could have been more conservative when it approached rate increases but believes in the importance of the

work as the city ages and grows.

Salazar is a relative newcomer to the
city with 15 years of residency and six
years on the council after he was
appointed in 2009 and re-elected without opposition in 2011. He brings a
younger and fresh perspective to the
table with a keen understanding of the
citys issues both great and small.
The city also reported a surplus in
this years budget and has successfully
pulled its way out of the Great
Recession. How to manage that new
success while ensuring the city is
responsible with its revenue takes a
watchful eye, and Salazar can provide
that.
Right now, the city is at the precipice
of potential and dramatic change with
the voter-approved height limits being
raised in November 2014. With both
Caltrain and BART serving the city,
San Bruno is in a prime location for
new development it has not seen in
quite some time. Managing that change
while ensuring the city remains affordable to its current residents will take
experience, community-mindedness
and creativity. Salazar and OConnell
have those characteristics and deserve
your vote.

Aggressive bikers
pose a safety hazard
Editor,
Adults and teen bike riders are getting more aggressive on our downtown
sidewalks. They do not yield to pedestrians at all. A bike going 1 to 3 mph is
an intimidating metal weapon with possible bad consequences like a collision
with a walker.
San Mateos narrow downtown sidewalks are already crowded with
garbage containers stored there all day,
parking meters, signs, electrical boxes
and other impediments, leaving limited
space to be shared between pedestrians
and bikers.
As I have repeatedly and respectfully
suggested to several of our city ofcials
for some time now,lets copy the lowkey and inexpensive approach used by
the city of Palo Alto and paint the silhouette of a bike crossed by an X at
both ends of the sidewalk and also in
the middle of each block, with the

He says the San Mateo County Board

is that change was forced upon the
supervisors because they were unable
to defend against charges that they
were in violation of the California
Voting Rights Act.The other reason is
that voters passed Measure B in 2012.
In addition to the expenses for the district attorney, San Mateo County taxpayers had to pay in excess of a million
dollars to settle the case. We were luckier than Modesto. Modesto challenged
a similar lawsuit that failed, costing
that city $3 million in legal fees. Then
Mr. Kopp goes on to badmouth the voters of San Francisco, If you want dysfunction, examine the San Francisco

Grandparents Day

ur young are own new beginnings, a testament to our trust in the future. The innocence, the delight, the wonder, the vitality,
the openness to life of childhood are necessary to us.
Without them, we lose touch with what is young and tender and creative within ourselves. When we lose our
patience with childhood, and our joy in it, we lose touch
with our inner selves, with our own growing and becoming. Eda LeShan, When Your Child Drives You
Crazy.
Sept. 13 is Grandparents Day. In honor of grandparents,
great-grandparents and
potential grandparents, I
offer this column that was
published in 1986.
Little did I know, a little
over a year ago, how being
presented with my first
grandchild would change
my life. Of course, its no
way as traumatic as having
your own first child, but
when daughter and family
live nearby, many adjustments can be forthcoming.
After my children grew up
and were going out on their
own, I celebrated by becoming involved in many of the
activities that had been put on hold for so long. With
returning to college, becoming enthralled with volleyball,
taking up writing columns, plus continuing my regular
hobbies and activities, my life was full. The empty nest
never looked so good!
Then the unbelievable happened! I was going to become
a grandmother! Talk about ambivalent feelings! My life
was going well as I was experiencing a freedom and vitality that many women of my generation did not experience
until this time of life. But I knew myself well enough to
know that I would want to become involved with the new
baby, not only to enjoy her and help her grow up, but give
her mother support and relief that I would have liked when
my kids were small.
There is nothing that renews your faith in life than a
new baby. There is nothing more that entrances you more
than that little bundle of humanity. Is there anything that
emphasizes that vulnerability and preciousness of children
more than watching the development of an infant? What
can do more to remind us of our responsibility to our children than those little innocent, sparkling eyes looking at us
with complete trust or that tiny hand in ours as she takes
her first steps?
Im not sure exactly why Im so completely taken with
this child, but it seems to be an affliction of most grandmothers I know. Maybe its because shes my descendent
and shes very cute, but other things are involved. I think
one is that there are so many children in this world who
dont have it so good. Another is that she represents hope
for humanity.
I would think that all grandparents would be so moved
by those small miracles that their children present to them
that they would be up in arms about the way so many children in our society get such short shrift, about how they
are being exploited by profit-hungry corporations and selfobsessed politicians, how so many are pushed into despair
and hopelessness by indifferent and/or abusive parents,
and how so many hunger not only for food, but for love
and acceptance.
It takes a lot of energy that seems to be in shorter supply
for a grandparent to do all those things we love to do plus,
at regular intervals, chase a crawling or toddling baby all
over the place. These labors of love are wonderful, but its
important that we save up enough of ourselves so we can
do something to make the world a better place for all children.
And now, almost 30 years later, I am enjoying a 3-yearold great-granddaughter presented to us by that first
grandchild. And as I enjoy this little girl, I recall Alice
Miller who, in the 70s, wrote in For Your Own Good:
I can imagine that some day we will regard our children
not as creatures to manipulate or to change but rather as
messengers from a world we once deeply knew, but which
we have long since forgotten, who can reveal to us more
about the true secrets of life and also our own lives, than
our own parents were able to.
And then there was Penelope Leach who lamented, in
her 1991 book, Your Baby and Child: Our present
lifestyle has no obvious place in it for children; no easy
way for adults to function simultaneously as respected,
economically solvent individuals and as caring parents.
To commemorate Grandparents Day, wouldnt it be
great if we who qualify would do all we can to make the
world a better place for our progeny? Those of us who are
able could make a big difference in the future. After all,
they are our most precious gifts.

NEW YORK The wild ride for

investors continued on Tuesday.
Stocks surged to their second-biggest
gain of the year, more than wiping out a
big loss from Friday and leaving the
Dow Jones industrial average down just
slightly for the month.
The market was rebounding from a
steep sell-off last week, when a mixed
jobs report left investors uncertain about
the outlook for interest rates.
Big moves have become commonplace
in financial markets in recent weeks as
investors have worried about the health
of the Chinese economy and the outlook
for U.S. interest rates. Many slumps have
been followed by strong rebounds.
Some strategists believe a sell-off in
stocks that began in the middle of August
is over, while others say that there may
still be more selling.
There is some value out there, but Im
not fully convinced that the selling pressure is out of the picture, said Robert
Pavlik, chief market strategist at Boston
Private Wealth.
The Standard & Poors 500 index
gained 48.19 points, or 2.5 percent, to
1,969.41. The Dow rose 390.30 points,
or 2.4 percent, to 16,492.68. The Nasdaq
composite climbed 128.01 points, or 2.7
percent, to 4,811.93 points.
Trading was closed in the U.S. on
Monday in observance of the Labor Day
holiday.
Traders were encouraged by a rebound

There is some value out there, but Im not fully

convinced that the selling pressure is out of the picture.
Robert Pavlik, chief market strategist at Boston Private Wealth

in Chinas stock market despite some

disappointing news on its economy.
The countrys exports shrank 5.5 percent last month compared with a year
earlier, while imports tumbled 13.8 percent. Augusts figures were hit by disruption from a massive explosion at the busy
Tianjin port and government-enforced
factory shutdowns in the run-up to a
huge military parade in Beijing last
week. Chinas trade has been weak for
months, reflecting muted global demand
and a domestic slowdown.
Despite the disappointing reports,
Chinas Shanghai Composite Index
jumped 2.9 percent in a rebound from
losses earlier in the day. A big slump in
the Chinese markets this year has unsettled investors.
Investors also got some encouraging
news on mergers.
General Electric surged on reports that
the European Union is set to approve its
$17 billion acquisition of Alstom SAs
power business. The deal was announced
in June last year. GE climbed 96 cents, or
4 percent, to $24.96.
Teco Energy soared after agreeing to
be acquired by the Canadian energy and
services company Emera for about $6.5
billion. Tecos stock rose $5.27, or 25
percent, to $26.34.
Meredith jumped $4.53, or 9.9 percent,
to $50.47 after agreeing to be acquired

by rival media company Media General.

The deal news was a good sign for
investors because it signaled that executives and investors still believe that stock
prices are at reasonable levels, said
Quincy Krosby, a market strategist for
Prudential Financial.
We expect to see more deals, and the
more deals that are announced the more
helpful it will be, said Krosby.
In Europe, Germanys DAX advanced
1.6 percent, Britains FTSE 100 climbed
1.2 percent and the CAC 40 in France
gained 1.1 percent.
U.S. government bond prices fell,
pushing the yield on the 10-year benchmark Treasury note up to 2.18 percent
from 2.13 percent on Friday. The euro
rose to $1.1182 from $1.1168. The dollar
rose to 119.76 from 119.39 yen.
In metals trading, Gold was little
changed at $1,121 an ounce. Silver rose
21 cents to $14.75 an ounce and copper
rose 12 cents to $2.43 per pound.
The price of oil slipped slightly
Tuesday as traders weighed continuing
supply concerns against the possibility of
rising demand in the U.S. US. crude fell
11 cents to close at $45.94 a barrel in
New York. Brent Crude, a benchmark for
international oils used by many U.S.
refineries, rose $1.89 to close at $49.52
in London, reversing Mondays steep
decline.

Raiders turn to Del Rio to inspire a winner

So I believe in that. I believe that the guys
here really want to win.
Del Rio helped spearhead an upgrade in
the teams weight room and facilities, overhauled the strength and conditioning program, and brought a heightened sense of
competition to the franchise with a coaching staff filled with former NFL stars.
None of that will matter without better
talent on the field. It all begins with Carr,
who started all 16 games last season and
became the seventh rookie to throw for at
least 3,000 yards and 20 touchdowns in a
season.

He also averaged an NFL-low 5.5 yards

per attempt, but the Raiders hope an
increase in talent led by rookie receiver
Amari Cooper and former 1,000-yard wideout Michael Crabtree will help change that.
I think in some key positions where
weve added people, you add talented guys
that can be potential game breakers for
you, safety Charles Woodson said. Thats
what you need in this game. You need some
guys that can go out there and perhaps take
the game over at any given moment. I think

OAKLAND The Oakland Raiders have

had eight coaches, 18 starting quarterbacks
and one all-too-familiar result for the past
12 seasons.
The Raiders have lost an NFL-worst 136
games since the start of the 2003 season
and are the only team in the league that has
failed to produce even a single winning
record in that span.
But with stability at quarterback with
Derek Carr, a dominant defender in Khalil

Mack, and a new coaching staff led by Jack Del

Rio, the Raiders are
hopeful the ingredients
for a turnaround are finally in place.
We are changing the
mindset, the culture,
because as a football
Jack Del Rio team, in order to do the
things that we have on
our plan, you have to operate a certain way
and were operating that way, and were
learning what it looks like, Del Rio said.

The Battle of Belmont was just that a

battle.
Notre Dame-Belmont and Carlmont slugged
it out at Moore Pavilion Tuesday night. But in
the end, the team of destiny that is Notre Dame
(4-3) just kept marching, topping the Scots in
four sets 25-13, 16-25, 25-23, 25-21.
After coming within one game of advancing
to the CIF Division IV state championship last
season, Notre Dame returns a majority of its
starting lineup this season. And even though
star opposite hitter Katie Smoot is a week away
from being activated from an ankle injury, the
Tigers still have an impressive depth of talent.
Its just a great group to coach, Notre
Dame head coach Jen Agresti said. Theres no
resistance with them. They just all buy in.
Tigers outside hitter Tammy Byrne has carried
the team to a 4-3 start in 2015 and consistently
brutalized the Carlmont defense. Scots middle
hitter Alexis Morrow was able to keep the 5-11
junior in check at times. Unfortunately for
Carlmont (2-5), Morrow comes off the floor for
two rotations. Byrne does not.
Byrne recorded a match-high 12 kills, four
in each set. And her showdown with Morrow
only made Byrne better as the match continued. After Notre Dame convincingly won
Game 1, Carlmont tightened up following to
glut of early errors to even it up in Game 2.
But when the Scots stormed out to a 9-4 lead
in Game 3, Byrne threw the proverbial switch.
I was getting mad, Byrne said. I dont
like being behind but you get mad, you
score points.
In Game 3, the Tigers eventually took a 1413 lead while Morrow was off the floor
on a kill by junior Mele Fakatene. It was Notre
Dames first lead in the match since a 1-0 edge
to start Game 2. Then, much in part to Byrnes
heroics, the Tigers were able to maintain a 1point advantage throughout the set.
Byrne hammered home kills to give Notre
Dame leads of 16-14, 17-15 and 18-16. Then
opposite hitter Jenna Spini and middle
blocker Jess Beering got into the act with a

PHOENIX Tim Hudson pitched six

effective innings in his return to the rotation and hit his first homer in two seasons,
lifting the San Francisco Giants to a 6-2
victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks on
Tuesday night.
Hudson (7-8) was sharp while subbing for
Ryan Vogelsong, who pitched in relief the
night before. Hudson allowed a run and four
hits in his first start since July 26.
He helped with his bat, too, hitting a solo
homer in San Franciscos five-run third
inning
off
Chase
Anderson (6-6) and later
added a single.
Gregor Blanco and Joe
Panik also homered in the
third for the Giants, who
won for the third time in
11 games as they try to
make up ground on the
Los Angeles Dodgers in
Tim Hudson the NL West.
Jarrod Saltalamacchia
homered for the Diamondbacks.
Hudson struggled before going on the disabled list with a shoulder strain, posting a
5.63 ERA in six previous starts. He was
reinstated on Sept. 1 and made two relief
appearances.
Hudson was cruising before the
Diamondbacks scored a run in the fourth on
Jake Lambs sacrifice fly after three straight
singles. David Peralta was thrown out after
rounding third too far to end the inning, and
Hudson retired the final six batters he faced.
Blanco hit the first ball out of the infield
by either team over the wall in center for a
leadoff homer in the third inning. Hudson
followed with his fourth career homer
first since April 30, 2013 on a towering
shot to left. At 40, he is the oldest Giants
pitcher to hit a home run since Steve
Carlton on July 21, 1986, at 41 years old.
It was the first time San Francisco hit
back-to-back homers involving a pitcher

Dons too much for Mills to handle

By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The Aragon girls water polo team, once a

staple in the Peninsula Athletic Leagues
Bay Division, has bounced between the
Ocean and Bay divisions for the last several
years.
Last season, the Dons won the Ocean
Division championship and were moved up
to the Bay for the 2015 campaign.
This time, it appears Aragon might have

the firepower to stick around for a while.

A pair of underclassmen sophomore
Olivia Tobin and freshman Maria Sell
combined to score 12 goals, six each, in
the Dons 15-9 win over Mills in a nonleague match in Millbrae Tuesday afternoon.
They play like point guards, Aragon
coach Roxanne Tursi said of Tobin and Sell.
They lead the offense.
Both Tobin and Sell are versatile enough
to play on the wing, as well as post up at the

2-meter spot. Senior Monika Kepa and junior Rachel Downall are also effective in the
hole set and those two combined for three
goals.
We have a lot of great talent, Tursi said.
Mills has some talent as well, but were at
a disadvantage playing against a more experienced Aragon squad. Offensively, the
Vikings started strong, getting a number of
balls into the hole set, but they could not
finish. Aragon, on the other hand, started

Purcell makes 49ers roster after two years of development

By Chris Biderman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

When projecting the San Francisco 49ers

roster in the spring, defensive lineman
Mike Purcell was a long shot.
After all, the former undrafted free agent
spent most of the last two seasons on the
practice squad while the team signed notable
veteran Darnell Dockett and used a firstround pick on Oregons Arik Armstead. At
nose tackle, where Purcell spends the most
time, Ian Williams and Glenn Dorsey were
returning after missing significant chunks
of 2014 with injuries.
But after a strong preseason, including a
rare touchdown scored off an interception,
Purcell, 24, cracked the 53-man roster.

POLO
Continued from page 11
off fast, scoring five goals on seven shots in
the opening period.
That seemed to shell shock the Vikings,
who saw its offense sputter as the Dons
played pressure defense, which kept the
Vikings on the perimeter.
Sometimes if your key players are guarded
by their better players, your offense can stagnate, said Mills coach Erik Anderson.
Aragon (2-0 overall) scored the first two
goals of the match, both coming from Tobin,
before Mills Alyssa Monteserrat and Ava
Daniel worked a give-and-goal, with
Monteserrat finding the back of the net at the

Dockett, 35, was released

after playing 16 snaps,
despite signing a twoyear deal in March.
Purcell led the 49ers
defensive line with 17
tackles over four exhibition games, including
two for loss.
He got off to a strong
Mike Purcell
start with a six-tackle
performance in the preseason opener in
Houston that included playing a pivotal role
in an eight-play goal line stand in the first
quarter, when the 49ers forced a turnover on
downs.
Purcell backed that up the next week by
intercepting Cowboys quarterback Dustin
Vaughan and returning it 37 yards for the

touchdown. He made the play and he took

off. Thats the fastest Ive seen him run, Ill
tell you that, first-year head coach Jim
Tomsula said afterward.
Tomsula is very familiar with Purcell after
being his position coach since he joined
the 49ers out of Wyoming following the
2013 draft. Under Tomsulas tutelage,
Purcell evolved from practice squad afterthought to viable roster candidate.
I think Ive just grown overall, on and
off the field, Purcell said. In the books
and when it comes down to game day. You
can always practice well, but if you dont
carry it over into the games, it doesnt really help.
A significant portion of Purcells growth
away from football came with the birth of
his son, Kaimana, seven months ago.

Kaimana and Purcells wife, Christina, were

regulars at the teams facility during training camp, serving as reminders of what was
at stake.
I think that was one thing that really hit
him and hit home, said Williams, a captain
of the defense. It was like, I got my little
man in the world now. I can attest to that
because I have my daughter and my son. I
know (Purcell) is excited about the season.
Hes been working hit butt off and hes
ready to go out there and show 49ers fans
what he can do.
Purcell joins a list of formerly unheralded
defensive linemen to make an NFL roster
coached up by Tomsula that includes
Williams, Tony Jerod-Eddie, Quinton Dial,

3:37 mark to cut the Dons lead in half.

Monteserrat led the Vikings with five goals
and an assist.
Tobin scored two more for Aragon and Sell
rounded out the scoring on the fast break to
give the Dons a 5-1 lead after one period.
Aragon continued its offensive onslaught
in the second period as the Vikings struggled
to slow down Tobin and Sell. Tobins tally
early in the second period put Aragon up 6-1
before Downall got into the scoring act, scoring on a backhanded shot from the hole set.
Sell tallied her second goal of the game from
the left wing on a power play and found the
net again in the final minute to give Aragon a
9-1 lead at halftime.
We werent getting back on defense,
Anderson said.
Mills, however, played a much more even
match over the final two periods as the
Vikings outscored the Dons 8-6 over the final

14 minutes.
Mills scored a pair of unanswered goals to
start the third. Monteserrat scored her second
goal of the game from the point, off an assist
from Amanda Li less than a minute into the
second half. Monteserrat scored again midway through the period on a power play, taking a pass from Daniel on the wing and walking the ball in before pulling the trigger.
Aragon got both goals back, however,
before the end of the period, with Sell driving
from the wing and scoring before Kepa took a
long pass from goaltender Sara Frandsen and
put it away to give Aragon an 11-4 advantage
going into the final seven minutes.
The Vikings put together their best period
of the match in the fourth, outscoring the
Dons 5-4. Tobin scored her final goal of the
match off an assist from Kepa, before Tobin
returned the favor and set up Kepa for her goal
a couple minutes later.

Mills finally found some rhythm offensively after that. Daniel stepped up her offensive production, recording a a pair of goals
over the final 2:35 of the match, as did
Montserrat.
Sell rounded out the scoring for Aragon,
scoring the Dons final two goals for the 159 win.
We try to take advantage of situations and
opportunities to get a high percentage shot
on goal, Tursi said. Were excited to see the
good competition (in the Bay Division). We
think higher levels of play will elevate what
were trying to do.
Despite the loss, Anderson was pleased to
see his team continue to work hard.
They fought hard. Made it a competitive
game, Anderson said. Our goal is to be in
every game we play. We want to have a chance
to win a game. At least be there in the fourth
quarter.

x-Injured reserve

KYLE TERADA/USA TODAY SPORTS

The Raiders recorded just 22 sacks last year, but anticipate better containment of opposing
quarterbacks with the reurn on second-year defender Khalil Mack. As a rookie last year, Mack recorded
four sacks, but should fare better with an extended stay at the defensive end position this season.

RAIDERS

nerbacks Tarell Brown and Carlos Rogers leave in

the offseason and did not bring in reinforcements.
That was in part because of a belief in what youngsters TJ Carrie, DJ Hayden and Keith McGill can
do. Oaklands success will depend heavily on
whether those three can validate that confidence.
Carrie played well as a rookie, but Hayden has
struggled in two years since being a first-round
pick, and McGill got only limited action in his
first year in 2014.

Continued from page 11

we have a few guys like that.

Mack attack
The Raiders best player is already Mack, who
was dominant against the run as a rookie and generated consistent pressure on the quarterback
despite only four sacks. Mack will play more of a
defensive end role this season, limiting his drops
into coverage, and looks like a much more capable pass rusher. That will be necessary if Oakland
will increase its sacks total of 22 from a year ago.

Big-play targets
Oakland has lacked a big-play receiver since
Randy Moss left town eight years ago. The team
has not had a 1,000-yard receiver since Moss did
it in 2005, tied with Jacksonville for the longest
current drought in the NFL. With Cooper and
Crabtree on board, the Raiders have two receivers
capable of being standouts.

Suspect secondary
GM Reggie McKenzie chose to let starting cor-

Run to daylight
The Raiders were last in the NFL in rushing a
year ago as Darren McFadden and Maurice JonesDrew struggled mightily. Latavius Murray provided a late-season spark when he finally got his
chance by averaging 5.2 yards per carry. He will
be the featured back this season behind an
improved line anchored by free agent center
Rodney Hudson, bruising second-year guard Gabe
Jackson, and consistent left tackle Donald Penn.

Home sweet home

Hanging over the Raiders all season will be their
future home. The team is playing on a one-year
lease at the Coliseum and is in talks with the San
Diego Chargers about building a stadium in the Los
Angeles area. The decision on where they play in
2016 could possibly come late this season.

As tops Astros for second straight win

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND Sonny Gray outpitched close friend

Scott Kazmir, and the Athletics spoiled the former
Oakland leftys return to the Coliseum mound with a
4-0 win against the AL West-leading Houston Astros
on Tuesday night.
Mark Canha hit a three-run homer in the fifth
inning after Billy Burns earlier solo shot to back
Gray (13-7). The All-Star right-hander ended a fourstart winless stretch and got the best of mentor
Kazmir, traded by the As to his hometown Astros on
July 23.
Kazmir had been back to the Bay Area with Houston
but didnt pitch against his old team during that trip
in early August. He faced As for the first time since

The Astros began the day with a two-game division
lead over Texas.
Gray allowed five hits, struck out four and walked
two in seven innings. He ended a three-game losing
streak with his first victory since beating Houston
on Aug. 7.
Ryan Dull pitched the final two innings.
Kazmir (7-10) lost his second consecutive decision. He was tagged for four runs and seven hits in six
innings.
Gray got through a 1-2-3 first on 11 pitches.
Kazmir allowed two singles in the bottom half but
escaped unscathed on a night when the game-time
temperature of 87 degrees was the warmest at the
Coliseum all season.

A run-scoring double by Panik
and Matt Duffys RBI single were
enough for Diamondbacks manager Chip Hale, who immediately
called to the bullpen instead of

Brandon Belt added a run-scoring
double to put the Giants up 5-0.

Serena needs three sets to beat Venus, advances to semis

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Serena Williams has defeated sister Venus in three sets to move within
two victories of completing the first Grand
Slam since 1988.
The younger Williams won 6-2, 1-6, 6-3 in
the U.S. Open quarterfinals Tuesday night in
front of a celebrity-filled crowd at Arthur Ashe
Stadium. It was her 11th three-set victory at a
major this year.
Serena improved to 9-5 against her sister in

Grand Slam matches.

Serena was nearly perfect in the first set but
tightened up in the second. She pulled it back
together in the third, breaking Venus serve
right away. Showing the importance of the
moment, Serena started celebrating winners
with big fist pumps and loud yells of Come
on! unlike most matches against her sister.
The 35-year-old Venus kept up her sharp
play of the last two rounds, but Serena as
she so often is against everyone was simply better.

Continued from page 11

SAN ANTONIO Two Texas football players accused of intentionally ramming into a
referee during a high school game allege the
referee directed racial slurs at them, school
district officials said Tuesday.
The district, which previously suspended the
two players, has placed an assistant coach on
paid leave while it investigates allegations
that he suggested there should be retaliation
against the referee for missed calls, Northside
Independent School District Superintendent
Brian T. Woods said at a news conference.
The two suspended John Jay High School students, whose names arent being released, will
go through a disciplinary hearing and the incident will be treated as an assault on a school
official, according to the school district.
The incident is shameful and in no way
reflects who Northside ISD and Jay High
School are, Woods said.
The district, which has 105,000 students,
is in the process of filing a complaint about
the racial slur allegation with the Texas
Association of Sports Officials, Woods said.
Michael Fitch, the associations executive
director, didnt immediately return a call
seeking comment on Tuesday. The name of
the referee has not been made public.

captivating show to extend the lead to 22-19.

The point was the most exciting rally of
the night, which started with an exquisite
diving front-row dig by Spini and was prolonged by a Beering block. Then after a
gutsy dig from Carlmont libero Erin
Alfonso, Notre Dame exacted the point with
Beering scoring on a crosscourt kill.
After Carlmont jumped out to an early lead
in Game 4, Beering caught fire. She slugged
it out at net with Morrow the two are former club teammates from their ninth-grade

She next faces 26th-seeded Roberta Vinci,

who reached her first Grand Slam semifinal
and has never defeated Williams.
Moving two matches from history, topseeded Serena got all she could handle from
23rd-seeded Venus before moving onto the
semifinals at Flushing Meadows with a 6-2, 16, 6-3 victory Tuesday in the 27th installment
of the unique Williams vs. Williams rivalry.

Serena is 16-11 in their matches, taking

seven of their last eight meetings. She leads
9-5 in majors and 3-2 at the U.S. Open. Of
greater significance is this: Serena can still
become the first player since Steffi Graf in
1988 to collect all four Grand Slam titles in a
calendar year.

When it ended, they met at the net for a hug,

with a smiling Venus wrapping both arms
around Serena.

And if she can win what would be her fourth

U.S. Open in a row, and seventh overall, she
would equal Graf with 22 major championships, the most in the professional era and
second-most ever behind Margaret Courts 24.

front for good.
Beering went on to total five kills in the
set. The junior had nine on the night.
You get in a zone and just want to get ahead
and get a lot of points in row, Beering said.
Byrne paced Notre Dame with 11 digs
while senior libero Katarina Warburton

Tigers advanced ball control, a facet of
their game that will likely make them contenders for a state title again this season.
We served them into some trouble for a
while, Carlmont head coach Chris Crader
said. But the experienced ball control ended
up blunting our serve.
Morrow paced Carlmont with 10 kills.
Senior Mia Hogan and sophomore Maya
McClellan had nine kills apiece.
Elsewhere, Sequoia (8-1) prevailed at
Branham in four sets, 17-25, 25-14, 25-16,

25-15. Julia Carlson paced the Cherokees

with 13 kills. Rachel Fink added 11 kills
while Kara Herbert had nine kills and eight
blocks.
Hillsdale (2-1) swept at Cupertino, 25-14,
25-11, 25-23. Cherene Uale led the Knights
with 11 kills. Libero Taylor Kwan had 30

Capuchino (2-0) downed Alma Heights
Christian 25-16, 25-17, 27-25, 25-14.
Jordan Ramirez paced Cap with 12 kills and

Half Moon Bay (2-2) triuphed over
Mercy-San Francisco in straight sets, 2518, 25-21, 25-19. Junior outside hitter
Hailey Merkes paced the Cougars with 17

Cardinals manager Mike Matheny remembers watching Andujar play on television.
I heard a lot of great stories on the field
as a competitor and stories in the clubhouse, about the personality he was, and as
a teammate, Matheny said.

For his career, Andujar was 127-118 with a

Mickelson given spot on

U.S. Presidents Cup team
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Phil Mickelson kept alive a

streak and earned a footnote in
Presidents Cup history Tuesday
when he was selected to play on
his 21st consecutive U.S. team.
Mickelson was No. 30 in the
standings, the lowest of any player to be a captains pick.
U.S. captain Jay Haas also took
his son, Bill Haas, though that
was expected. Bill Haas won his
sixth PGA Tour title this year, finished one shot out of a playoff at
The Players Championship and
was 11th in the standings. His
father said he intended to take No.
11 regardless of who it was.
International captain Nick Price
selected Steven Bowditch of
Australia, who missed qualifying
by less than one-hundredth of an
average world ranking point, and

Sang-moon Bae of South Korea,

which attracted the most attention.
The Presidents Cup is Oct. 8-11
in South Korea, the first time it
has been held in Asia.
Bae has been ordered to start his
mandatory two-year military service in South Korea when he returns
home. Price said he has been told
that Bae, who won the seasonopening Frys. com Open last
October, will be able to first play
in the Presidents Cup.
Mickelson has gone two years
since his last victory in the 2013
British Open, and at No. 51 in the
FedEx Cup, he risks not making it
to the Tour Championship for the
second straight year. He was planning to skip the BMW
Championship next week north of
Chicago if he was not chosen for
the Presidents Cup team.

Easy veg skewers for

back-to-school nights
By Melissa DArabian
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Back-to-school is kind of like

New Years Day for my kids. Its
the perfect time to revisit personal
goals, which range from mastering
fractions to eating more vegetables.
But its also an incredibly busy
time of year with sports and activities kicking in, not to mention parent nights at school, fall festivals,
fundraising auctions and all the
other must-do events that mark the
start of another school year. So all
my healthy eating plans focus on
quick and easy meals that can be
prepped not just on a regularly busy
weeknight, but also on a weeknight
jammed with more than the usual
dance classes, soccer practices and
meet-the-teacher events.
These rainbow vegetable skewers
are inspired by the eat a rainbow
mantra so many of us introduced to
our children as toddlers. They are
fun to make together as a family
ahead of time. I just cut up the veggies and my kiddos and I thread
them onto the skewers together.
Then I cover them in the easiest of
marinades: bottled Italian dressing!
After that, they hang out for up to a
day until Im ready to grill or broil
them in just minutes.
Before I leave you to your skewering bliss, I have a small confes-

sion: I dont love that skewers are

deceptively tricky to cook. Its actually quite difficult to get all the veggies to cook properly, and Ill tell
you flat out that I have never actually eaten a skewered chunk of onion
that wasnt either too raw or too
burnt.
Thats why this skewer recipe is a
bit different. I tell you exactly how
to thread the skewers to optimize
them for perfect cooking. And I
leave off the onion. Instead, I give a
hint of oniony flavor from some
mild chopped chives at the end.
Because who needs to worry about
undercooked onion when there is
spelling homework to be done?

GRILLED RAINBOW
VEGETABLE SKEWERS
If you are using wooden skewers,
its a good idea to soak them in
warm water for 30 minutes or so
before threading the vegetables onto
them. This helps prevent them from
burning during cooking.
Start to finish: 30 minutes, plus
marinating
Servings: 4
16 cherry tomatoes
1 red bell pepper, cored and cut
into 1 1/2-inch squares
1 yellow (summer) squash, cut
into 1/2-inch-thick rounds
1 zucchini, cut into 1/2-inch-thick
rounds

These rainbow vegetable skewers are inspired by the eat a rainbow mantra so many of us introduced to our
children as toddlers.
1 orange bell pepper, cored and
cut into 1 1/2-inch squares
1 cup bottled Italian dressing (any
kind without Parmesan cheese in it)
3 tablespoons chopped fresh
chives
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Thread the vegetables onto 8
skewers, starting each with a tomato, then red pepper, squash, zucchi-

ni and orange pepper, then finish

with a second tomato. Thread the
peppers, squash and zucchini
lengthwise to make them more stable. Arrange the assembled skewers
in a baking dish. Drizzle the dressing over the skewers, then cover
and refrigerate for at least 1 hour
and up to 24 hours.
When ready to serve, heat the
grill to medium. Alternatively, heat

the oven to broil.

Grill or broil the skewers (if broiling, set them on a wire rack placed
over a rimmed baking sheet) for 6
minutes, then flip and cook for
another 4 to 6 minutes, or until nicely seared. Arrange 2 skewers on
each serving plate, then sprinkle
them with the chopped herbs. If
desired, serve with additional dressing for dipping.

Packaged seaweed salad makes

a perfect base for beefy tacos
C

an you handle just one more Asianfusion taco? Youre rolling your eyes.
I know. But what if its one thats
easy enough and delicious enough to truly be
worth making at home?
Truth is, most of the
popular Tex-Mex-Asian
blends have been produced in food trucks and
brick-and-mortar joints
that are far flung from
most Americans (because
though Los Angeles and
New York City hate to
admit it, the vast majority of our country doesnt
live in either city). The
result is that most folks
only get to read about the
deliciousness that is
Asian flavors packaged in a Tex-Mex-friendly
delivery system.
So my goal was to break down those flavors
into something easily reproduced at home.
And so I give you the beefy seaweed taco with
jalapeno-jicama slaw.
Lets start with the beefy. For a bold steaky
flavor, I went with flank. But I wanted as
much Asian savory goodness as possible, so
rather than cook it whole, we thinly slice it
across the grain, then give it a bath in a blend
of fish sauce, soy sauce and toasted sesame
oil. It takes just a couple minutes in the pan to
give us the sear we want.
The steak gets piled on top of that ubiquitous green of lower rung sushi joints seaweed salad. You know you love it, even if it is
dyed fluorescent green. Youll find it at most
Asian markets (and many natural foods grocers sell non-colored versions). On top of that
goes a quick slaw made from crunchy jicama
tossed with citrus juice and jalapenos. The
whole thing comes together with a bit of
cheese and youre done. Youll thank me on
Taco Tuesdays.

J.M. HIRSCH

BEEFY SEAWEED TACOS WITH

JALAPENO-JICAMA SLAW
Start to finish: 30 minutes
Servings: 4
3 tablespoons fish sauce
3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons sesame oil, divided
2 tablespoons sugar
1 pound flank steak
1 cup jicama, cut into matchsticks
1 jalapeno pepper, thinly sliced

Most folks only get to read about the deliciousness that is Asian flavors packaged in a Tex-Mex-friendly delivery system, however, now you
can make it at home.
2 tablespoons orange juice
2 tablespoons lime juice
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
Eight 6-inch corn tortillas
1/2 tablespoon cornstarch
8 ounces (about 1 cup) seaweed salad
1/2 cup crumbled queso fresco or blanco
cheese
Heat the oven to 200 F.
In a large bowl, whisk together the fish
sauce, soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of the sesame
oil and the sugar. Slice the steak across the
grain into very thin strips, then add to the fish
sauce mixture. Toss to coat evenly, then set
aside for 10 minutes.
In a medium bowl,
toss together
the jicama
and
jalapenos,
then add the
orange and

lime juices. Toss again to coat. Taste, then season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
Stack the tortillas and wrap them in foil. Set
the packet in the oven to warm.
In a large skillet over medium-high, heat the
remaining 1 tablespoon of sesame oil. Use
tongs to remove the meat from the marinade,
letting as much liquid as possible drip off back
into the bowl and reserving the marinade.
Transfer the steak strips to paper towels and
lightly pat dry. Add the dried steak strips to the
skillet and cook only until just barely seared,
about 1 minute.
Whisk the cornstarch into the reserved marinade in the bowl, then add the mixture to the

To assemble the tacos, remove the warmed

FARM HILL
Continued from page 1
The pilot will end in August 2016 after
which the council can choose to stick
with three lanes or revert the road to
what it was before it was restriped.
Many residents, however, want the
pilot to end now.
In January, the citys Senior
Transportation Coordinator Jessica
Manzi said the new lane configuration
should only add 60 to 90 seconds onto
travel times.
Angry commuters Tuesday, however,
told the Daily Journal their travel times
increased by more than 10 minutes.
They described gridlock, people
screaming out of their windows and
neighbors on the sidewalk watching the
chaos in disbelief.
City workers were busy watching the
traffic flow Tuesday morning on the first
official day of the pilot.
Its my hope it will get better. If we
need to make adjustments, we will make
adjustments, Mayor Jeff Gee said.
Gee has heard many of the complaints
and reminds commuters that the lanes
were reconfigured because of numerous
collisions, some fatal, on the road that
leads to Interstate 280 to the west and
downtown to the east.
Gee said many who traveled on Farm
Hill before the lanes were reconfigured
commonly exceeded the speed limit,
making it dangerous for bicyclists and
pedestrians.
But morning commuters said there
werent many bicyclists to be seen trav-

PG&E
Continued from page 1
motions in U.S. District Court on Labor
Day evening, two days before the fiveyear anniversary of a fatal pipeline
explosion in San Bruno on Sept. 9, 2010.
Eight people died, 66 others were
injured and dozens of houses were
destroyed or damaged in an explosion
and fire when a high-pressure PG&E
natural gas transmission pipeline segment in San Bruno ruptured.
The cause was a defective seam weld
in a pipeline segment that was incorrectly listed in PG&E records as seamless,
according to the National Transportation
Safety Board.
The federal criminal charges were
lodged in a superseding U.S. grand jury
indictment last year. The utility is
charged with one count of obstructing
justice in the NTSB investigation and 27
counts of violating record-keeping and
management requirements of the U.S.

THE DAILY JOURNAL

eling the road early Tuesday morning.

Farm Hill was even notorious for drag
racing and many had previously complained they had difficulty exiting driveways and side streets to access the road.
Resident Melissa Kenlay posted on
Nextdoor.com that it took her four minutes to exit her driveway Tuesday morning and 12 minutes to make it to
Interstate 280.
Day one and hoping that it gets a little better as the week goes on, she
wrote.
Many residents shared their complaints on the online portal after dealing
with the bad commute.
This morning it was a complete disaster, Michael Sterling told the Daily
Journal after posting some remarks
online. This is the dumbest idea anyone
has ever come up with.
Sterling also wonders how bad traffic
will get when all the new downtown
office buildings are filled up with workers.
The lane reconfiguration is unreasonable, he said, and will cause commuters
to use more gas and create more pollution in the area.
Motorists are also using side streets to
avoid Farm Hill, he said.
Many commuters took photos of the
traffic and posted them online.
A petition is currently being circulated, signed by more than 1,360 individuals, that is calling for the City Council to
scrap the pilot.
Donna Czarnecki signed the petition
and told the Daily Journal that the
restriping project has already likely
caused two traffic accidents.
She has lived in the neighborhood

since 1986 and said Tuesdays traffic

logjam in the morning was the worst she
has seen. She also said right-hand turn
lanes are too short and not being properly utilized.
Increased police patrols in the area
would be the best solution to making the
thoroughfare safer and not new paint,
she said.
Another resident, Jim Recker, said
traffic was moving in the morning at
only 10 mph.
It triples the time it takes to travel the
road now, he wrote in an email.
In the meantime, Gee hopes commuters will be patient with the pilot.
Its been difficult as any change is,
he said.
Much of the congestion was due to the
Emerald Hills intersection, said city
spokeswoman Meghan Horrigan.
In response, the city extended the two
lanes Tuesday after the morning commute in an effort to mitigate the congestion, she said.
Extra police will be at the intersection
this week to help the traffic flow better,
she said.
The lanes on Farm Hill and Jefferson
were also reconfigured for a series of
speed-related accidents and not for bicycles, Horrigan said.
The city wants feedback from
motorists and the realignment is not yet
complete, nor final, she said.

Natural Gas Pipeline Safety Act.

Federal prosecutors are seeking a fine
of up to $1.13 billion if PG&E is convicted of all charges. A jury trial in the
court of U.S. District Judge Thelton
Henderson is scheduled to begin March
8, 2016.
In a separate state administrative proceeding, the California Public Utilities
Commission in April imposed a record
$1.6 billion penalty on PG&E for violations related to the San Bruno explosion,
record-keeping practices and pipeline
operations in highly populated areas.
The five federal court motions filed
Monday seek dismissal of all of the
criminal charges for several different
reasons and many of the counts are covered by more than one motion.
One motion argues that the 27 safety
violation counts should be dismissed
because the state of California, through
the CPUC, has exclusive authority to
regulate pipeline safety in the state.
How is it that the federal government
can seek a duplicate penalty after it has
officially certified that the state has
exclusive authority to regulate pipeline

safety on intrastate pipelines in

California? the brief asks.
Another motion disputes prosecutors
method of calculating the potential
$1.13 billion penalty. PG&E lawyers
wrote that prosecutors proposed method
would profoundly complicate and
extend what will already be one of the
more complex criminal trials ever tried
in this district.
Other motions seek dismissal of various counts on grounds of duplication of
charges and allegedly incorrect grand
jury instructions.
A hearing on the motions is scheduled
before Henderson on Oct. 19.
U.S. Attorneys Office spokesman
Abraham Simmons said, We have no
comment, but we will be responding to
the motions in court in a timely way.
In July, PG&E filed a motion seeking
dismissal of seven counts on the grounds
that the statute of limitations has run.
Prosecutors argued in an opposition filing last month that the violations were
ongoing and thus within the statute of
limitations.
Henderson is scheduled to hear arguments on that motion on Sept. 21.

Turkey deploying forces into

Iraq to hunt down PKK rebels
By Suzan Fraser
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ANKARA, Turkey Turkey deployed

ground forces across the border into northern Iraq on Tuesday for the first time since
2011, stepping up its battle against Kurdish
rebels who have stung the Turkish military
with a string of attacks in recent weeks.
The move, however, could frustrate the
U.S.-led alliances efforts against the
Islamic State group because Turkey is now
hunting down the very fighters who are trying to hold back the militant group from taking more territory in Syria and Iraq.
Turkish authorities havent given a specific timeframe for the operation in northern
Iraq, although one official said it was a
short-term offensive to root out rebels.
Turkish jets also carried out more airstrikes
against rebel camps in the region.
The cross border operations came amid a
wave of attacks by the rebels of the
Kurdistan Workers Party, or PKK, that
killed at least 31 soldiers and police since
Sunday.
Turkey, a NATO ally, signed up for a more
active participation in the U.S.-led coalition,
after a deadly suicide bombing in July

blamed on IS. It has allowed U.S. warplanes

and drones to take off for missions against
IS in Syria and its jets have struck IS targets
near its border, in Syria.
But the countrys main focus has been its
fight against the PKK, which has waged a
decades-long insurgency for Kurdish autonomy. President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has
said in comments reported by the Turkish
media that IS is a lesser threat to Turkey
than the PKK.
Turkeys ground and aerial incursions
against the PKK pose a difficult situation for
the U.S.-led coalition. The Kurds are doing
much of the fighting against IS across the
border in Syria and in northern Iraq. The
PKK, which maintains bases in northern
Iraq, has fought alongside Iraqi Kurdish
peshmerga forces, notably in Shingal, a predominantly Kurdish town which was taken
by IS during last years blitz.
Turkey could not have helped Daesh
more if it had tried, said Nazmi Gur, a former legislator who is in charge of Turkeys
pro-Kurdish partys foreign relations, in reference to Tuesdays ground incursion in pursuit of the PKK. He was using an alternative
acronym for IS.
Critics accuse Erdogan of re-igniting the

militants in Van, eastern Turkey.
fighting with the Kurds, after more than two
years of peace efforts, for electoral gains.
Opponents say he aims to rally nationalist
votes around the ruling Justice and
Development Party, or AKP, and discredit a
pro-Kurdish party whose electoral gains in
an election in June deprived the AKP which
he co-founded of its parliamentary majority.
Erdogan denies the accusation.

However, the Turkish leader has also suggested that strong single-party rule after a
new election called for Nov. 1 would help
end the turmoil.
The Turkish troops crossed the border as
part of a hot pursuit of the PKK rebels,
who were involved in a roadside bomb
attack that killed 16 soldiers on Sunday, the
government official said.

Islamic State group loyalists eye a presence in Afghanistan

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

KABUL, Afghanistan Homegrown militants loyal to the Islamic State group are making inroads into Afghanistan, controlling territory in some parts of the country and ruling
with the harsh hand the group is notorious for
in Iraq and Syria, according to officials, military leaders and analysts.
IS expansion into Afghanistan has been a

concern for both Afghan and international

authorities for months, with officials warning
that the militant group was actively recruiting
members from other Islamic militant groups,
including the rival Taliban.
Now multiple local and international officials say IS loyalists have increased their visibility and in some parts of the country are violently confronting the Taliban which is still
waging its own 14-year-old insurgency to

retake power in Kabul.

There remains some confusion as to whether
the growing visibility of the now-familiar IS
black flag in Afghanistan constitutes the presence of an actual Islamic State group affiliate.
Authorities have yet to confirm the existence
of operational or financial links between the
local IS loyalists and the militant groups
home base in Iraq and Syria. However, the
number of local militants flying the IS flag or

claiming to be acting in the groups name has

increased dramatically.
Some of these are believed to be former
Taliban fighters who have broken with the
organization and adopted the IS flag out of
convenience. But at the very least, authorities
say recent events reveal the growing presence
and power of factions who emulate the Islamic
State groups ideals and seek to mimic its tactics.
