The former site of a drive-in the-
ater along the Burlingame
Bayfront could soon be developed
into a large office space as a sale
for the long-vacant property is in
the works.
The 300 Airport Blvd. property,
just south of San Francisco
International Airport, is owned by
the San Francisco-based
Millennium Partners. In 2012, the
Burlingame City Council
approved the application for
development of a new office/life
science campus on an 18. 13-acre
site. The proposed project con-
sists of 767, 000 square feet of new
uses, including office or life sci-
ence uses; retail and restaurant
uses in four buildings of five,
seven and eight stories; a two-
story amenities building with a
child care facility, a recreational
facility and
food service;
and a 5. 5-level
parking struc-
ture.
Although the
sale is still in
talks, an entity
c a l l e d
Bur l i n g ame
Point LLC,
was listed Aug.
11 with the California Secretary of
States Office as registered to the
Palo Alto office of H&Q Asia
Pacific. Robert Shen, managing
director of H&Q Asia Pacific is
listed as the Burlingame Points
agent.
It would do several good things
for Burlingame. One, it would help
with Burlingames shortage of
Class A office space, while at the
same time populating most or all
of it, said Mayor Michael
Brownrigg.
Theres a lot in it for the com-
munity of Burlingame, said
Brownrigg, who went to China
this past summer with the non-
profit group called China Silicon
Valley to establish relationships
that could lead to potential invest-
ments. The path along the Bay
would be enhanced. Its a big pos-
itive.

Founded 100 years ago, Dudley
Perkins Company has experienced
the entire arc of motorcycle culture
from its humble beginnings to
dramatic popularity and every-
thing in between.
The family-owned dealership,
through four generations of
Perkinses, suffered multiple reces-
sions and seen successful come-
backs. Firmly trenched in South
San Francisco just north of San
Francisco International Airport,
its extended existence has prolif-
erated by maintaining a familial
attitude toward customers and shar-
ing a love for motorcycles and
Harley Davidsons in particular.
Now owned by Janet and Thomas
Perkins, their son Christopher
handles sales and is acting vice
president of the company.
Growing up around motorcycles,
he said the gearhead mentality
has been passed down from his
great-grandfather who raced them
before starting the business.
He was in his late teens when
he started, he was a mechanic and
very hands on, Christopher
Perkins said of his great-grandfa-
ther, and he just basically started
a shop. His grandfather Dudley
Perkins Jr. took it over and his
three sons, Thomas Perkins and
his two brothers, were all
involved in their early years.

As the cost of living rises along
the Peninsula, those who work on
San Mateo city public works proj-
ects will be guaranteed prevailing
wages after the City Council
approved an ordinance codifying
existing policy and to adhere to
state regulations.
To receive state funding,
Californias newly enacted Labor
Code section 1782 requires charter
cites, such as San Mateo, to pay
workers at least the states prevail-
ing wage on public works proj-
ects, City Attorney Shawn Mason
said.
The ordinance was approved last
week but Councilman David Lim
said the City Council has long
strived to pay its employees pre-
vailing wages
and encourage
private devel-
opers to do so
as well.
We have a
lot of people
who work in our
community who
make a living
in our labor
groups. Theyre our friends who
are carpenters, electricians,
plumbers and, without prevailing
wages, the developers are able to
import workers from Southern
California or the Central Valley
who make much less, because
frankly, it costs less to live
[there], Lim said.

Man sends newspaper
check years after rack thefts
LAKELAND, Fla. Some 54 years
after stealing several newspaper racks,
a U. S. Navy veteran has sent a letter of
apology and a check for $200 to The
Ledger of Lakeland, Florida.
Bernard Schermerhorn says he's fol-
lowed the rules for most of his 73
years, but caved to peer pressure as a
teenager and went along with a friend's
scheme to steal several racks from The
Ledger).
In a Sept. 30 letter to the newspaper,
Schermerhorn says they took a hand-
ful of change and then dumped the
racks.
Schermerhorn, who lives in Le
Mesa, California, told the newspaper
the check would more than cover the
damage and theft of about $10.
Publisher Kevin Drake says he' s
sending Schermerhorn a thank-you
letter and will donate the money to a
children's charity in Lakeland.
Spiders force family
from upscale Missouri home
WELDON SPRING, Mo. A family
was driven from their suburban St.
Louis home by thousands of ven-
omous spiders that fell from the ceil-
ing and oozed from the walls.
Brian and Susan Trost bought the
$450, 000 home overlooking two golf
holes at Whitmoor Country Club in
Weldon Spring in October 2007 and
soon afterward started seeing brown
recluse spiders everywhere, The St.
Louis Post-Dispatch reported. Once
when showering, Susan Trost dodged a
spider as it fell from the ceiling and
washed down the drain.
She told St. Louis television station
KMOV-TV in 2012 the spiders "started
bleeding out of the walls, " and at least
two pest control companies were
unable to eradicate the infestation.
The couple filed a claim in 2008
with their insurance company, State
Farm, and a lawsuit against the home's
previous owners for not disclosing the
brown recluse problem.
At a civil trial in St. Charles County
in October 2011, University of
Kansas biology professor Jamel
Sandidge - considered one of the
nation' s leading brown recluse
researchers - estimated there were
between 4, 500 and 6, 000 spiders in
the home. Making matters worse, he
said, those calculations were made in
the winter when the spiders are least
active.
The jury awarded the couple slightly
more than $472, 000, but the former
owners declared bankruptcy, the insur-
ance company still didn't pay any-
thing and the couple moved out two
years ago.
The home, now owned by the
Federal National Mortgage
Association, was covered with nine
tarps this week and workers filled it
with a gas that permeated the walls to
kill the spiders and their eggs.
"There'll be nothing alive in there
after this, " said Tim McCarthy, presi-
dent of the company hired to fix the
problem once and for all.
Chocolate-covered bugs
served up at insect museum
NEW ORLEANS The menu
includes crickets and wax worms on
toothpick skewers for dipping in a
fountain of melted chocolate, along
with "tarsal toffee" made with bug legs
and mealworms and fudge infused with
crickets and marshmallows.
What looked like a Halloween trick
was actually an array of treats being
served up Saturday at the Audubon
Butterfly Garden and Insectarium in
New Orleans.
The 23, 000-square-foot facility is
the largest free-standing museum in
the United States dedicated to insects.
It houses thousands of live bugs,
including beetles, cockroaches,
wasps, bees, ants and termites. It also
has a butterfly exhibit created to
resemble a Japanese garden.
Insect-infused cuisine is also a huge
draw. Thousands annually visit the
museum's Bug Appetit kitchen, where
six-legged critters and worms are
cooked and served.
There is a Tiny Termite Caf with
bug-free foods for the less-adventurous
eaters.

U
ncle Toms Cabin was a road-
house that sat on the site of
Walgreens and an auto dealer-
ship in San Bruno. It was built in 1849
and lasted until 1949 when it was torn
down. It had been enlarged many times
and sold food and drinks on the first
floor and various other businesses on
the second floor. During Prohibition,
alcohol was outlawed as well as gam-
bling. At least that was what the law
said.
This is one of the conversations
heard in Uncle Toms Cabin in the
1930s.
The front door opened and the coun-
ty sheriff walked in. He hesitated,
looked around and walked over to the
restroom. The room got silent. The
men in the room kept their eyes down
but managed to catch a glance of the
man as he walked across the room. A
few minutes later, he returned to the
room and slowly walked over to the bar
in the back of the room.
Beer, Sheriff? the bartender asked.
On the house.
No, the man replied. I just wanted
to see what type of riff-raff was in the
place and he gave a great big guffaw
and slapped one of the men sitting
there on the back. The men in the room
burst into laughter at the sheriffs ges-
ture. Well, take it easy boys. Dont
get any diseases off the toilet seat and
he walked across the room and began
walking up the stairs that led to the
second floor.
Hes got his nerve, one of the men
said. Hell, he knows there are women
and gambling upstairs. Saw he up there
one time.
You saw him upstairs?
He knows all about this place, and
all of the sections of the Peninsula. He
has to know. He wouldnt stay in his
job if he didnt.
You mean he knows about Geneva
Avenue and he doesnt do anything
about it.
Geneva Avenue? Hell, thats the
least of the gambling. What about
Bayshore City, Marchbanks Villa
Mateo and the Northern up in Daly
City? another one chided in.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES Californias health
insurance exchange has awarded $184 mil-
lion in contracts without the competitive
bidding and oversight that is standard prac-
tice across state government, including
deals that sent millions of dollars to a firm
whose employees have long-standing ties
to the agencys executive director.
Covered Californias no-bid contracts
were for a variety of services, ranging from
public relations to paying for ergonomic
adjustments to work stations, according to
an Associated Press review of contracting
records obtained through the state Public
Records Act.
Several of those contracts worth a total of
$4. 2 million went to a consulting firm, The
Tori Group, whose founder has strong pro-
fessional ties to agency Executive Director
Peter Lee, while others were awarded to a
subsidiary of a health care company he once
headed.
Awarding no-bid contracts is unusual in
state government, where rules promote
open and fair competition to give taxpay-
ers the best deal and
avoid ethical conflicts.
The practice is generally
reserved for emergencies
or when no known com-
petition exists.
Covered California
was created in 2010 and
given broad authority to
award no-bid contracts
as a way to meet tight
federal deadlines for getting the new health
insurance marketplace operational by last
year. The same law also exempted it from
sections of the states public records law, a
loophole lawmakers closed last year after it
was disclosed by the AP.
The agency confirmed some no-bid con-
tracts were awarded to people with previous
professional ties to Lee, but emphasized
Covered California was under pressure to
move fast and needed specialized skills.
The fledgling exchange needed experi-
enced individuals who could go toe-to-toe
with health plans and bring to our con-
sumers the best possible insurance value.
Contractors like The Tori Group possess
unique and deep health care experience to
help make that happen and get the job done
on a tight deadline, Lee said in a statement.
As this organization matures, he added,
we will rely less on private contractors.
With so much taxpayer money in play, a
government watchdog group said more
oversight is essential.
Kathay Feng, executive director of
California Common Cause, said she recog-
nized the need to free Covered California
from cumbersome contracting rules that
could have hampered its ability to meet
Affordable Care Act deadlines.
But with tens of millions of taxpayer dol-
lars at issue, some accountability and
transparency is needed, whether through
audits or an alternative oversight body,
she said, adding, To spend $4. 2 million on
anything, let alone a contract to a friend and
former colleague, raises serious questions.
The no-bid contracts represent nearly $2
of every $10 awarded to outside companies
by the agency and were among roughly $1
billion in agreements disclosed to AP that
the exchange executed from late 2010
through July, according to the records.
Through its first year of operation,
Covered California was funded almost
entirely by federal grant money.
The founder of The Tori Group, Leesa Tori,
worked under Lee when she was a senior
executive at Pacific Health Advantage, a
small business insurance exchange that
failed in 2006. Lee was a longtime chief
executive of Pacific Business Group on
Health, which managed Pacific Health
Advantage, and Tori also worked with him
at the parent company.
Long before it opened its doors to the
public last fall, Covered California award-
ed a small contract to Tori for her advice
on designing a program to sell insurance
to small companies. The $4, 900 agree-
ment in late 2011 was executed without
rival bids.
The deal would mark the beginning of a
l ucrat i ve and far-reachi ng part nershi p
between the agency and the company Tori
formed about t wo years ago, j ust as
nat i onal heal t h care reform t ook root
across the U. S. An initial $150, 000 con-
tract with The Tori Group in March 2013
was executed by Lee, but later amendments
that increased its value to $4. 2 million

which leads visitors into the parks main
valley, reopened Sunday. The road was
closed after an air tanker hit the canyon wall
and disintegrated, with pieces landing on
the highway.
Fire investigators found that the blaze
broke out Tuesday after hot metal fragments
from a vehicle created sparks, the park serv-
ice said.
Meanwhile, a blaze along Interstate 80 in
the small community of Applegate, about
40 miles northeast of Sacramento, remained
at 459 acres and 67 percent contained, the
California Department of Forestry and Fire
Protection said.
Mandatory evacuations were suspended
Sunday but an evacuation warning remains
after the fire destroyed 6 homes and threat-
ened 400 more, the department said.
Thousands pack San Francisco
waterfront for Fleet Week return
SAN FRANCISCO Fleet Week weekend
kicked off with San Franciscos waterfront
packed by thousands of people who wit-
nessed the commissioning of the Navys
newest ship and the acrobatics of the Navys
precision flight team.
Shoulder-to-shoulder crowds in the
Embarcadero enjoyed airshow by the Blue
Angels, who returned to San Francisco
Saturday after Fleet Week was suspended last
year because of federal budget cuts.
Families sat in beach chairs, some
wrapped in black and orange Giants blan-
kets, and waited Sunday for the Blue Angels
team to soar over the city and perform their
signature climbs, stunts and rolls.
This years highlight was the commis-
sioning of the America, the U. S. Navys
newest addition to the Pacific Fleet, the San
Francisco Chronicle reported.
The 854-foot long is designed to land a
force of U.S. Marines by helicopter and plane
and it can provide help in case of a civilian
disaster. There is a hospital aboard, food and
provisions for thousands of troops.
After centuries-old naval ceremony and a
modern-day flyover by tilt-rotor Osprey air-
craft the vessel officially entered service
Saturday.
The ship was then turned on and radar dish-
es started to spin as the ships horn blew.
It never gets old, said Admiral Harry
Harris, commander of the Pacific Fleet, fol-
lowing the ceremony. I get a huge lump in
my throat. To have a ship named after our
nation, that is so incredibly cool.
Because the vessel is too wide to go through
the Panama Canal, it had to sail around South
America from Pascagoula, Miss., where it was
built. Several of the 4,000 Mississippi ship-
yard workers who put together the ship also
attended the ceremony.
Restaurants and bars along the
Embarcadero were packed with sailors and
Fleet Week visitors this weekend.
Fleet Week is great for us, said Rafael
Porras, Reds Java House manager. Fleet
Week and baseball they generate a lot of
money.
Dairy ranchers ask
for help with hungry elk
POINT REYES STATION Organic dairy
ranchers are urging authorities to remove
tule elk from agricultural land in the Golden
Gate National Recreation Area and Point
Reyes seashore and build a large fence to
keep them out.
The San Francisco Chronicle reported
Sunday the ranchers say their cows are com-
peting with the elk for vegetation, which
has become scarce after three years of
drought.
They say the animals gobble up the rye
grasses that cows rely upon.

DALLAS A breach of proto-
col at the hospital where Ebola
victim Thomas Eric Duncan was
treated before his death led to the
infection of a health care worker
with the deadly virus, and other
caregivers could potentially be
exposed, federal health officials
said Sunday.
The hospital worker, a woman
who was not identified by offi-
cials, wore protective gear while
treating the Liberian patient, and
she has been unable to point to
how the breach might have
occurred, said Dr. Tom Frieden,
head of the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention. Duncan
was the first person in the U. S.
diagnosed with Ebola.
The CDC confirmed Sunday after-
noon that the woman had tested
positive for Ebola the first
known case of the disease being
contracted or transmitted in the U.S.
The missteps with the first
patient and now the infection of a
caregiver raised questions about
assurances given by U. S. health
officials that any American hospi-
tal should be able to treat an Ebola
patient and that the disease would
be contained.
At a briefing in Atlanta, Frieden
said that at some point during
Duncans treatment, there was a
breach in protocol, and that breach
in protocol resulted in this infec-
tion. He added that officials were
deeply concerned by the infec-
tion of the worker.
President Barack Obama asked
the CDC to move as quickly as
possible in investigating the inci-
dent, the White House said.
Dallas police stood guard outside
her apartment complex and told
people not to go inside. Officers
also knocked on doors, made auto-
mated phone calls and passed out
fliers to notify people within a
four-block radius about the situa-
tion, although Dallas authorities
assured residents the risk was con-
fined to those who have had close
contact with the two Ebola
patients.
The worker wore a gown,
gloves, mask and shield while she
cared for Duncan during his second
visit to Texas Health Presbyterian
Hospital, said Dr. Daniel Varga of
Texas Health Resources, which
runs the hospital.
Duncan, who arrived in the U. S.
from Liberia to visit family Sept.
20, first sought medical care for
fever and abdominal pain Sept. 25.
He told a nurse he had traveled from
Africa, but he was sent home. He
returned Sept. 28 and was placed in
isolation because of suspected
Ebola. He died Wednesday.
Liberia is one of the three West
African countries most affected by
the Ebola epidemic, which has
killed more than 4, 000 people,
according to World Health
Organization figures published
Friday. The others are Sierra Leone
and Guinea.
Texas health officials have been
closely monitoring nearly 50 peo-
ple who had or may have had close
contact with Duncan in the days
after he started showing symptoms
but before he was diagnosed with
the disease.
The health care worker reported a
fever Friday night as part of a self-
monitoring regimen required by
the CDC, Varga said.
Another person who was
described as a close contact of
the health worker has been proac-
tively placed in isolation, he
added, without elaborating on
where that person is being moni-
tored. The hospital said its emer-
gency department is diverting
ambulances to other hospitals,
though still accepting walk-in
patients.
Frieden said officials are now
evaluating and will monitor any
workers who may have been
exposed while Duncan was in the
hospital.
Among the things the CDC will
investigate is how the workers
took off protective gear, because
removing it incorrectly can lead to
contamination. Investigators will
also look at dialysis and intuba-
tion the insertion of a breath-
ing tube in a patients airway. Both
procedures have the potential to
spread the virus.

SALT LAKE CITY Court decisions this
week paving the way for same-sex marriage
to become legal in dozens of states, includ-
ing Mormon strongholds like Utah, Idaho
and Nevada, have emboldened a growing
group of Latter-day Saints who are pushing
the conservative church to become more
accepting of gay members.
The churchs stance toward gays has soft-
ened considerably since it was one of the
leading forces behind Californias ban on
gay marriage in 2008, but high-ranking
leaders have reiterated time and again the
faiths opposition to same-sex unions.
Some Mormons hope to change that, or at
least work to make congregations more
welcoming places for gays and lesbians.
Erika Munson, co-founder of a group
pushing the faith to be more accepting of
gays, said she worries about losing younger
Mormons because of the churchs stance.
One of her five children, an adult son, has
chosen to not to practice Mormonism, in
part because of the religions stance on
homosexuality.
People under 30 all know somebody who
has come out. They are not the other, they
are not scary. They understand that they are
just like them, said Munson, whose group
Mormons Building Bridges stays neutral on
gay marriage because they want to work
within church doctrine. So, thats really
hard to reconcile with a Christian church
where we follow the teachings of Jesus.
On Monday after the U. S. Supreme
Court unexpectedly rejected appeals by
Utah and four other states trying to protect
their same-sex marriage bans The Church
of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints said in a
statement that the decision will have no
effect on church doctrine or practices, while
acknowledging that as far as the civil law
is concerned, the courts have spoken.
Still, church leaders are not ready to
accept gay unions. Dallin H. Oaks, one of
the churchs highest-ranking leaders, told a
worldwide audience last week at a Mormon
conference in Salt Lake City that legalizing
same-sex marriage is among the world val-
ues threatening Mormon beliefs.
Yet he also urged members to be gracious
toward those who believe differently in
what many gay advocates in the church saw
as the latest example of the softer tone lead-
ers are taking.
The majority of Mormons will stand
behind church teachings on the topic, said
Scott Gordon, president of a volunteer
organization that supports the church.
That doesnt mean they are bigots or hate-
mongers, though, as they are sometimes
labeled, he said.
The reality is that most Mormons have
gay relatives or friends they love, but they
also agree with the religions opposition to
gay marriage rooted in a deeply-held belief
that families are the center of life and for
eternity, and that a family led by a man and
a woman is best for children, he said.
Marriage is not just about love. Yes, love
is a large component of it, but marriage is
about having families and raising children
and doing those things that will help the
children grow into adulthood, said Gordon,
of FairMormon. The fundamental teach-
ings of the church are never going to change
on this. Well just adapt and move on.
The history of the church suggests
Mormons could alter their views, although
no one is expecting doctrinal change any-
time soon.

MECHANIC FALLS, Maine A
Halloween-themed hayride loaded with pas-
sengers crashed down a hill in the Maine
woods and slammed into a tree, fatally injur-
ing a teenage girl and leaving more than 20
other people hurt, police said Sunday.
Seventeen-year-old Cassidy Charette of
Oakland died from her injuries after the
Gauntlet Haunted Night Ride wagon over-
turned Saturday night at a rural farm in
Mechanic Falls, authorities said.
The crash threw everyone off the trailer
and into each other and into trees, said Sgt.
Joel Davis of the state fire marshals office.
He said a mechanical problem prevented the
SUV pulling the wagon from stopping.
Several actors participating in the rides
scenes assisted the injured riders includ-
ing some performing CPR and likely
helped prevent the accident from being even
worse, Davis said.
About a half-dozen of those hurt remained
hospitalized Sunday afternoon but their
injuries did not appear life-threatening,
Davis said.
Charette was among a group of friends
who visit Harvest Hills Farm every fall,
Davis said. One of her fellow students at
Messalonskee High School, 16-year-old
Connor Garland of Belgrade, was being
treated at Boston Childrens Hospital, state
police spokesman Steve McCausland said.
Charette was a member of the schools
girls soccer team and scored goals in recent
games, according to results in local media.
Garland was a member of the Central Maine
Owls, a 15-and-under baseball team that
won the state championship this year,
according to the Portland Press Herald.
The hay wagon was being pulled by a
1979 Jeep when it crashed, according to the
fire marshals office. The driver, identified
by police as David Brown, 54, of South
Paris, was among those hospitalized.
Brown is an experienced trucker who has a
commercial drivers license, according to a
spokesman for the farm.

SURUC, Turkey The shells
were already roaring down on the
Kurdish fighters from the hill
above Kobani when more than 30
Islamic State militants backed by
snipers and pickups mounted with
heavy machine guns began their
assault across the dusty fields.
Holed up in an industrial area of
squat, concrete buildings on
Kobanis eastern edges, the out-
gunned Kurds could do little to
repel the attack, recalled Dalil
Boras, one of the defenders during
the Oct. 6 assault. The Islamic
State groups firepower proved too
much, so the Kurds withdrew
through the gray streets to a tree-
lined park, ceding a foothold in
the town to the extremist fighters,
who promptly raised two black
flags over their newly conquered
territory.
A week later, the Kurdish men
and women of the Peoples
Protection Units, or YPG, are still
holding out, if barely, with a help-
ing hand from more than 20
airstrikes by the U. S. -led coali-
tion against Islamic State posi-
tions.
They have been battered by
tanks shells and mortars, and
picked off by snipers using
American-made rifles. They have
no answer for the heavy weapons
that Islamic State fighters have
looted from Iraqi and Syrian army
bases. And while they are slowly
yielding ground, they so far have
prevented the town from being
overrun, defending it zealously
with little more than light
weapons, booby-traps and a fer-
vent belief in their cause.
Along the way, the predomi-
nantly Kurdish town along Syrias
border with Turkey has
been transformed from
a dusty backwater into
a symbol of resistance
for Kurds around the
world. It also has
grabbed the interna-
tional media spotlight,
which has helped turn
the defense of Kobani
into a very public test
for the American-led
international effort to
roll back and ultimate-
ly destroy the Islamic
State group.
The battle itself is
now playing out in
Kobanis streets and
alleyways a fight
being watched by
scores of Syrian and
Turkish Kurds, as well
as dozens of journal-
ists, through binocu-
lars from hilltops and farms just
across the border in Turkey.
From that vantage point, the
town spreads out among the rocky
hills and brown fields just beyond
the frontier. Plumes of black
smoke billow over the low-slung
skyline. The occasional thud of
mortar shells mixes with the clat-
ter of heavy machine guns and
assault rifles.
Kurdish fighters and civilians
who have recently fled describe a
much grittier scene inside the
town. Both of the warring sides
have knocked holes in walls to
move between buildings a tac-
tic employed in urban fighting for
decades. On cross streets, blan-
kets have been hung to limit
exposure to snipers. Rubble lit-
ters the streets. Smoke hangs in
the air. The few remaining civil-
ians have sought shelter in base-
ments.
Boras, a short and stocky 19-
year-old dressed in dusty black
jeans and a black T-shirt,
explained how Kurdish fighters
are organized into small groups of
sometimes as few as five or six
people, who stake out positions
on the front lines. Teams with
rocket-propelled grenades and
Russian-designed machine guns
known here as Doshkas have
taken up positions in the upper
stories of some buildings to maxi-
mize the Kurds limited firepower.
We are communicating with
walkie-talkies, Boras said recent-
ly during a three-day break from
the fight. We tell them on our
walkie-talkie that theyre attack-
ing and we throw a red smoke
bomb to show the position of the
attack, and then the machine guns
and RPGs provide support.

T
he San Mateo Union High
School District is pleased to
see Sue Lemperts Oct. 6,
2014, column Repercussions of con-
cussions. Media
coverage like her
recent column serves
the important role in
building public
awareness around
options for protect-
ing young athletes
throughout the area.
The district priori-
tizes player safety, and in light of
Lemperts recent coverage, we wanted
to share five key elements of the
SMUHSDs comprehensive concus-
sion prevention and care program.
Immediate removal
and parent notification
First, if a student is suspected of
sustaining an injury to the brain, he
or she is immediately removed from
the practice and/or game, and not
allowed back until they are medically
cleared by their family physician. We
immediately notify families of the
injury and advise them of our policy
that the student must be cleared by a
family physician before rejoining his
or her team.
ImPACT
Another important aspect of our
concussion prevention plan is the use
of ImPACT a computerized test that
allows the district to obtain a base-
line of each athletes normal neu-
rocognitive functioning prior to ath-
letic participation. If a head injury is
suspected, the schools athletic train-
er can retest the athlete and compare
the two scores as another tool in the
recognition of a concussion. These
results can then be given to the ath-
letes family physician and/or an
ImPACT certified physician to assist
in a comprehensive evaluation and
management of a students head
injury.
Full-time athletic trainers
and sideline procedures
Because the district prioritizes safe-
ty, we employ full-time athletic train-
ers positions you will not com-
monly find in high school sports.
These athletic trainers are knowledge-
able and experienced professionals
who make it their priority to keep
players safe and healthy.
One of the ways they do this is by
implementing a sideline procedure
that tests alertness, memory and coor-
dination. Although there are many
tools and opinions as to the best side-
line procedure, the sideline procedures
used by athletic trainers are thorough
and serve as a sound test of a students
cognitive state. It involves an athlet-
ic trainer asking the player a series of
identified questions to assess a stu-
dents orientation, concentration and
memory, as well as to identify any
signs of post-traumatic amnesia. The
sideline testing can be used in con-
junction with ImPACT. Again, side-
line procedures do not replace an
assessment performed by the familys
licensed physician.
Five-step reintegration once
family physician gives clearance
Once a students physician allows
them to return to play, the district
implements a five-step phased reinte-
gration. The steps include: light exer-
cise, to running in the gym or on field
with no helmet and thus no contact,
to light contact, to full contact, to
being eligible for competition. The
progression normally takes about one
week, but can take longer if there is
any question as to the students condi-
tion.
Time for brain to rest both
physically and mentally
Finally, brain injuries do not only
impact an athletes ability to play on
the field; brain injuries impact an ath-
letes ability to perform academically.
Students with concussions are provid-
ed slow integration back into academ-
ics through, for example, extended
time to take tests and complete home-
work, time for the district nurse or a
school health aide to address
headaches and the option to attend
school for only half days.
The district sincerely thanks the
Daily Journal for including columns
like Sue Lemperts as we all win when
we are educated on the available
options, programs and methods that
can be used to protect all of our com-
munitys young athletes from the
effects of concussions.
Scott Laurence is the superintendent of the
San Mateo Union High School District.

WASHINGTON World financial leaders
are pledging to act boldly and ambitiously
to give a weak and uneven global recovery
some momentum, but they have often fall-
en short in the past when trying to follow
through on their promises.
The pledge from the International
Monetary Funds policy-setting committee
comes after a week of volatile swings in the
financial markets powered by concerns
that parts of Europe may be sliding into
another recession.
The IMF called increasing economic
growth an utmost priority during the fall
meeting of the IMF and World Bank. In a
closing statement Saturday from the steer-
ing committee of the 188-nation IMF, the
finance leaders also committed to making
the necessary structural changes that would
boost growth.
Officials also endorsed the IMFs efforts
to support three West African countries bat-
tling the Ebola crisis, which could be added
to ministers usual concerns over interest
rates and budgets, particularly if the virus
becomes widespread.
Managing Director Christine Lagarde
said at a news conference that the IMF has
made $130 million available to Guinea,
Liberia and Sierra Leone, and that the IMF
and other international agencies stood
ready to do more.
If more is needed, it will be there,
Lagarde said.
In addition to the $130 million in inter-
est-free loans being provided by the IMF,
the World Bank is providing $400 million
for the Ebola efforts.
In its closing statement, the World Bank
policy committee said that swift and coor-
dinated action and financial support are
critical to contain the deadly disease.
World Bank President Jim Yong Kim said
that a Thursday meeting sponsored by the
bank to highlight the funding needs was
useful but he stressed that the situation
remained critical. We call on all countries
that are watching, . If you have any sense
that you want to help with this epidemic,
do it now, Kim told reporters at a closing
news conference.
International relief agencies stressed that
time was urgent.
The speed and amount of governments
pledges will make the difference between
Ebola containment or pandemic, said
Nicolas Mombrial, an official with Oxfam.
Protesters gathered outside the bank at
midday to complain that some of its proj-
ects harm the environment but their num-
ber was nowhere near the thousands that
used to gather when financial crises
wracked parts of the world.
The IMF and World Bank meetings were
preceded by talks among finance ministers
and central bank presidents of the Group of
20 advanced and emerging nations, which
comprise 85 percent of the global econo-
my. The G20 focused on measures they
could impliment to strengthen the global
economy and make the recovery more
robust.
In a comment clearly aimed at Germany,
U. S. Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew told
finance ministers that European countries
with external surpluses and fiscal flexibil-
ity needed to do more to address weakness
in demand that was holding back growth.
Germany, Europes largest economy, ran
a large trade surplus last year.
He also called on China, now the worlds
second-largest economy, and Japan, No. 3,
to make the necessary policy adjustments
to increase their own growth.
A string of weak reports on economic
activity in Germany jolted financial mar-
kets this past week.
U. S. stocks ended their worst week since
May 2012, and the market turbulence
served as a backdrop for the finance meet-
ings.
While Germany came under pressure at
the meetings to move to support greater
government spending to boost growth,
German Finance Minister Wolfgang
Schaeuble insisted in his remarks to the
IMF that German Chancellor Angela
Merkels government still believed the
emphasis needed to remain on reducing
deficits.

DALLAS When Southwest
Airlines recently introduced a new
paint job for its planes, a senior exec-
utive joked that at 43 years old and
being from Dallas, it was time for the
airline to get a face-lift.
At middle age, Southwest is the
fourth-largest U. S. airline by traffic,
setting records for profits and enjoy-
ing a stock-price rally. But it wants
more. Most of 2014 has been spent
trying to regain the dazzling growth
of its earlier years.
On Monday, Southwest gets some
help. It will launch its first long-dis-
tance flights from its home base at
Dallas Love Field to seven cities
across the country, with eight more
destinations next month. Such flights
were prohibited until now by a long-
time law that protected Dallas-Fort
Worth International Airport by limit-
ing flights from Love Field to a few
nearby states.
Southwest will go head-to-head with
Fort Worth, Texas-based American
Airlines, which flies to most of those
same 15 cities from DFW Airport.
There will also be a new competitor at
Love Field: Virgin America, whose
swashbuckling founder, Richard
Branson, is flying in for the occasion.
CEO Gary Kelly says bookings for
the new flights are strong, and demand
could outstrip seats. He believes the
Love Field expansion presents very
significant growth opportunities for
us. Already this year, Southwest has
started its first-ever international
flights to Mexico and the Caribbean
and grown in New York and
Washington.
Southwest was once a legendary
growth story. From three planes in
1971, it grew to 70 by 1985, and was
flying more than 400 planes by the
middle of last decade. But aside from
the $1. 4 billion purchase of AirTran
Airways in 2011, Southwest Airlines
Co. has hardly grown in recent years.
Instead it has focused on meeting prof-
it-margin goals to satisfy Wall Street.
On-time performance, once a hall-
mark, has slipped badly. In the most
recent 12-month period, only 71 per-
cent of Southwests flights arrived on
time, last among the largest U. S. air-
lines, according to government fig-
ures. Airline executives thought they
could squeeze in more flights with no
new planes, but the move backfired,
resulting in delays and missed connec-
tions. Recently, Southwest tweaked
its schedule to allow more time
between flights.
Still, Southwest had the lowest rate
of consumer complaints in August, the
latest month for which figures are
available. Customers like that
Southwest has fewer fees - it is the
only major airline that lets passen-
gers check two bags for free.
One afternoon this week at Love
Field, Bill Gibson of Oklahoma City
was at the baggage carousel, waiting
for the video gear he uses to shoot car
commercials. He said he has flown
Southwest for 20 years.
Southwest looks for spark

ST. LOUIS With a chance to take a
commanding lead in the NL
Championship Series, the San Francisco
Giants reliable bullpen failed to keep the
ball in the park.
Two leads and a tie wiped out by three
more homers in the late innings from the
suddenly potent St. Louis Cardinals.
Pinch-hitter Oscar Taveras tied it with a
solo home run off of Jean Machi in the
seventh Sunday night, Matt Adams con-
nected off September callup Hunter
Strickland in the eighth, and Kolten
Wong led off the bottom of the ninth
with a homer off Sergio Romo to give St.
Louis a 5-4 victory and even the best-of-
seven series 1-1.
The long ball got us tonight, Giants
manager Bruce Bochy said.
Game 3 is Tuesday in San Francisco.
The Giants bullpen had been lights out
in the playoffs, allowing just four runs in
20 2-3 innings this postseason. That
included 10 2-3 scoreless innings in
beating Washington 2-1 in 18 innings in
Game 2 of the Division Series, and 1 1-3
scoreless innings against St. Louis in a
win in the opener of the NLCS.
Sunday was a different story.
Matt Carpenter homered off starter Jake
Peavy in the third inning. Then, the team
that had an NL-low 105 homers, added
three more for a total of 11 in six post-
season games.
Trailing 2-0 in the fifth, the Giants ral-
lied to take a one-run lead with reliever
Jeremy Affeldt pitching two scoreless
innings.

ST. LOUIS Austin Davis has made the
most of his improbable shot the St. Louis
Rams, passing for 300 yards each of the last
two games.
The degree of difficulty is about to go up.
Way up.
The San Francisco 49ers enter Monday
nights game with the NFLs No. 2 defense,
making the going very tough even without
key players from last season.
Patrick Willis leads the way for San
Francisco (3-2) which has stepped up its
play lately. Last week, they did enough to
compensate for a sputtering offense that
leaned on five field goals and converted on a
fake punt deep in their territory in a 22-17
victory over the Chiefs.
Alex Smith found the going tough espe-
cially in the second half and Jamal Charles
was held to 80 yards rushing.
Patrick Willis, lets start there, coach
Jim Harbaugh said. He is the kingpin in
the middle.
Harbaugh said tackle Justin Smith and
linebacker Ahmad Brooks have also stepped
up their play, plus nose tackle Ian Williams
has been a find. Linebacker NaVorro
Bowman has resumed running and getting
closer to returning.
Davis passed for 375 yards and two touch-
downs last week at Philadelphia, nearly
bringing the Rams back from a 27-point
deficit in a 34-28 loss. The previous game,
he passed for 325 yards although he was
intercepted twice.
Several players have proven reliable tar-
gets, including wide receivers Brian Quick,
Kenny Britt and Austin Pettis and tight ends
Jared Cook and Lance Kendricks.
The 49ers took advantage of the extra day
of preparation to learn more about a player
who was fourth on the depth chart during the
preseason before the job dropped into his
hands due to injuries to Sam Bradford and
Shaun Hill. Coach Jeff Fisher reversed field
after the Rams bye and said Davis was his
quarterback for the rest of the year, after
repeatedly saying Hill was that guy when he
returned from a quadriceps injury.
Davis was a volunteer high school coach
this time last year, getting re-signed by the
Rams after Bradfords first season-ending
knee injury. So its still a nice rags-to-rich-
es tale, but with a body of work to analyze.
Weve really weve got as much tape on

ONTARIO Stephen Curry scored 12 of his
25 points in the first 2 1/2 minutes, helping
the Golden State Warriors get off to a fast start
and beat the banged-up Los Angeles Lakers
116-75 in a preseason game Sunday night.
Klay Thompson added 16 points and
David Lee had 14 for the Warriors, who
started the game with a 24-5 run. Andre
Iguodala, whose nose was broken during a
loss to the Lakers on Thursday, wore a face-
mask and finished with four points and
eight assists in 21 minutes.
The Lakers were outscored by 39 points
during Kobe Bryants 24 minutes on the
court. He scored six points on 3-for-13
shooting. Los Angeles missed 11 of its first
13 shots, finishing at 37 percent overall.
Reserves Robert Sacre and Wayne Ellington
scored 12 points apiece.
Curry and Thompson converted four-point
plays during the Warriors early surge after
fouls by Steve Nash and Wesley Johnson,
respectively. Johnson added to the Lakers
futility by blowing a breakaway slam dunk
attempt moments later.
Golden State led 63-36 at halftime.
Jeremy Lin (sprained left ankle), Jordan
Clarkson (sprained calf) and Xavier henry
(back spasms) were all out for the Lakers.

The legacy of Don Dias 39-year coaching career
is embodied no better than Half Moon Bays 2005
Central Coast Section championship team.
The programs first and only CCS title, the 2005
Cougars were a team built from dedication, heart
and above all passion. That is how Dias
describes the essentials of what it takes to build an
effective varsity lineman. And one doesnt have to
talk with the offensive line coach very long to rec-
ognize he radiates such passion for the game.
I just absolutely love what I do, Dias said. If I
could describe in one word what it takes to be suc-
cessful, that word has got to be passion.
In 2005, Half Moon Bay emerged from the
Peninsula Athletic League Ocean Division to storm
through the CCS Division IV bracket. The Cougars
outscored their oppo-
nents 66-18 through
three postseason games,
including a 14-6 win
over Seaside in the Dec.
3 championship game.
Despite the historic
success, the Half Moon
Bay championship team,
in the years to follow, proved to have one very
interesting distinction.
Usually on a CCS team, youve got a stud, Dias
said. From that team of 2005, we had five [play-
ers] that played junior college football; and that
was it. No one went on after that.
One of those junior college players was center
Willie Hillyard, one of four Cougars to go on to
play at College of San Mateo. And while none of
them went on to set foot upon the field at a four-
year college or beyond, Hillyard has remained in
the game, having since returned to serve as Half
Moon Bays offensive coordinator.
Half Moon Bay head coach Keith Holden is also a
former offensive lineman who played for Dias in
1990 and 91.
My snot-nose offensive guard from 1991, hes
my head coach, and Willie Hillyard, my snot-nose
kid from 2005, is my offensive coordinator, Dias
said with an affectionate laugh.
Success on the gridiron has only ever been one

All South San Francisco native Mike
Johnston knows how to do is win.
An integral member of the last South City
football team to win a Central Coast
Section championship in 1989, Johnston
has since settled into life in Chandler,
Arizona, where he has helped chisel one of
the most successful prep football programs
in the nation at Hamilton High School.
With Friday nights 42-25 victory over
neighboring Basha High School, the
Hamilton Huskies reached a momentous
plateau with win No. 200 all-time. Whats
so impressive about the feat is the football
program at Hamilton has only been in exis-
tence since 1998.
Honestly, its just another win,
Johnston said. Being at Hamilton, theres
always levelheaded kids. A lot of teams
might set goals of winning the league
championship or beating a certain team.
Since Ive been at Hamilton [the goal is]
to win a state championship. We always say
we want to make the playoffs and we want to
win our last game. Thats kind of our
motto.
The Huskies have won seven state cham-
pionships in the programs previous 16
years. With the exception of its inaugural
season of 1998 in which the program had
only sophomore and juniors on roster as it
was the year the school opened Hamilton
has won in double-figures every season.
Last season saw the Huskies total their
biggest single-season loss total ever
three. The third loss came in the state cham-
pionship game.
Johnston has been on board since the
beginning as an assistant coach. He serves
as the wide receivers and special teams
coach.
After a four-year career at BYU as a stand-
out wide receiver, Johnston looked to relo-
cate to Arizona to be close to his wifes
immediate family, who are expats from
Calgary, Canada. Johnston interviewed in
six different school districts; the last on the
list was the Chandler Unified School
District. They offered him a job, he arrived
in Chandler two days before the school
opened in July of 1998, and the rest, as they
say, is history.
It was more of a farming community,
because, to tell you the truth, everywhere
around here was a farm, Johnston said.
Now all the farms are gone. Its back to
town life. They have a normal town, almost
like South City on Grand Avenue down there
in central Chandler.
Just 20 minutes from Phoenix, Chandler
grew by leaps and bound during the dot-com
boom. Both Intel and Motorola opened
manufacturing bases there, which saw a
population increase which eventually
necessitated three new high schools being
opened.
Thats definitely had a lot to do with the
influx of the people moving in, Johnston
said. So, everybody is from everywhere
around here. The area has really explod-
ed, obviously.
Chandler High School has been in exis-
tence for over 100 years. In that time, the
Chandler Wolves were an average American
football tradition. Since Hamilton opened
though, Johnstons everybody from
everywhere brought everything in the
way of serious football talent.
When people would move to the state,
and you have those parents who want to find
the right place for them we definitely
took advantage of that in terms of the types
of transfers we had move in from out of state
that helped make our program what it is
today, Johnston said.
Prior to the modern era of Hamilton dom-
inance, Mountain View High School in
Mesa, Arizona was the state powerhouse.
But he Huskies eventually broke Mountain
Views state record of 51 straight wins when
Hamilton rolled to 53 consecutive victories
from 2008-11 en route to three consecutive
state titles.
Chandler High School has since grown
into a powerhouse as well. Hamilton won
the first 17 games between the now archri-
vals. But Chandler finally broke the streak
last year with a dramatic victory in the final
seconds of the game. And two weeks ago,
Chandler ended Hamiltons undefeated start
to this season and delayed the Huskies first
bid to win No. 200.
Its the losses all 21 of them in
Hamiltons history which stick with
Johnston the most.
I can tell you about all of our losses, but I
have trouble telling you about a lot of our
wins, Johnston said. The teaching
moments that come from losing, those stay
with you a little bit. You dont obviously want
to relive those. But you can learn from them.
The Hamilton-Chandler rivalry has hit the
big-time in recent years though. Two of the
teams matchups have been nationally tele-
vised on ESPN subsidiary channels; one was
on ESPNU and the other, in 2010, was
shown on ESPN2.

him as we would have if the other guy had
still been the quarterback, defensive coor-
dinator Vic Fangio said. So, its really not
a whole lot different than any other week.
The Rams (1-3) are a lot more concerned
about solving the 49ers defense than Davis
performing on national TV.
Its just the next challenge, the next
chapter, offensive coordinator Brian
Schottenheimer said. Its just obviously a
very good defense.
Again, he doesnt have to do it by him-
self, we have to do it as a team.
The game plan wont change much, if at
all, to account for San Franciscos
strengths. Running back Zac Stacy is prob-
able coming off a calf injury that sidelined
him last week and Benny Cunningham also
been effective.
Theyll certainly make some plays, they
always do, Schottenheimer said. They
will be tough stretches Im sure. This is
probably an elite defense, but weve played
some good defenses.
For a change the 49ers didnt beat them-
selves last week, committing just two
penalties for 10 yards last week.
Penalties remain a season-long concern
for the Rams, whove also made enough crit-
ical mistakes to put a damper on hopes
Fishers third season will be the long-await-
ed breakthrough.
The defense has been a puzzlement, prone
to giving up big gainers and limited to a
single sack despite aggressive schemes
under new coordinator Gregg Williams.
Theres enough on his plate that Fisher
isnt paying much attention to the 15-year
anniversary recognition of the 1999 Super
Bowl team. The team was honored at a func-
tion Sunday night and will be the focus of
halftime Monday night.
Im actually thinking about the 49ers,
Fisher said. Ive been here for a few years
now. Im reminded on a daily basius inside
the building, so Im used to it now.

OAKLAND It took a couple of big plays
from a pair of rookies for the San Diego
Chargers to hold off the winless Oakland
Raiders.
Branden Oliver scored on a 1-yard run with
1:56 to play and Jason Verrett sealed San
Diegos 31-28 win Sunday with an acrobatic
interception that spoiled interim coach Tony
Sparanos debut with Oakland.
When it came down to it, to crunch time,
both sides stepped up and made plays to win
it, quarterback Philip Rivers said. I just
think it was big for our team to win this
way.
Rivers threw three touchdown passes and
engineered the winning drive to give San
Diego (5-1) its fifth straight win and send
Oakland (0-5) to its 11th straight loss,
matching the teams longest losing streak
since 1962.
Rookie Derek Carr threw four touchdown
passes for the Raiders. His last scoring play,
a 6-yarder to Andre Holmes with 10:01 left,
gave Oakland a 28-21 lead.
But Rivers answered with a pair of scoring
drives and Carr was intercepted by Verrett
with 1:13 to play.
Its a surreal moment, man, said Verrett,
who grew up cheering for the Raiders in the
Bay Area and has a brother who works for the
team. Thats all I can say. Im blessed. Just
thankful I could make the play.
Carr took a deep shot for Brice Butler with
the Raiders facing second-and-1 from the San
Diego 45, needing just a few more yards to
get into range for a potential tying field
goal.
Carr said he didnt regret the decision to
take a deep shot.
He made a great play, Carr said. Brice
went up, he had it and the guy made a great
play. Those things are going to happen.
Yeah, it hurts. It hurts because thats the way
it ended.
Oliver, an undrafted rookie out of Buffalo,
ran for 101 yards to complement another
strong performance by Rivers, who threw for
313 yards and posted a 120 passer rating for
a record fifth straight game.
Carr threw for 283 yards in his best game
of his rookie season and could have had a lot
more if not for several drops by his
receivers.
His best throw might have been his last
TD, when he rolled to his right and patiently
waited for Holmes to break open in the back
of the end zone.
But it wasnt enough to give the Raiders
the win.
We have to be in these kinds of football
games, Sparano said. We have to win one
of these types of football games and thats
how you get this thing turned around.
Rivers took over after that, leading San
Diego on a pair of scoring drives starting
with a 30-yard field goal by Nick Novak.
After the Raiders went three-and-out for the
second time all game, Rivers got the ball at
the Oakland 39 with 4:43 to go and calmly
led the Chargers downfield to set up Olivers
winning run.
Im the type of guy that, if you keep giv-
ing me the ball, I feel like I get stronger as
the game goes, Oliver said.
Sparano talked this week after replacing
the fired Dennis Allen of ending a pattern of
Oakland beating Oakland, and the Raiders
used San Diegos mistakes to take the lead in
the third quarter.
The Chargers committed three penalties on
one drive, including a hold on Ladarius Green
that negated Novaks 54-yard field goal.
Instead of punting on fourth-and-35, up
back Eric Weddle decided to try a fake but
threw an incompletion intended for Seyi
Ajirotutu.
Oakland took advantage of the good field
position to take the lead on Carrs 47-yard
TD pass to Butler that put the Raiders up 21-
14 for their first second-half lead since last
Thanksgiving in Dallas.
Rivers answered with a 1-yarder to Antonio
Gates for his third TD pass late in the third, set-
ting the stage for the dramatic fourth quarter.
Carr threw a 77-yard touchdown pass to
Holmes in the opening minute and he and
Rivers each had two scoring throws to send
the game to halftime tied at 14.
Oakland missed a chance for a halftime lead
when Sebastian Janikowski was wide left on
a 53-yard field goal try on the final play.
NOTES: Carrs first TD pass to Holmes was
the longest scoring throw for the Raiders
since JaMarcus Russell and Zach Miller con-
nected on an 86-yarder on Oct. 10, 2009. ...
Rivers became the fifth QB to throw for
4,000 yards in his career against the Raiders,
joining John Elway, Dan Fouts, John Hadl
and Dave Kreig.

SEATTLE Those questioning whether
the Dallas Cowboys start to the season was
legit got a resounding answer on Sunday.
Showing no intimidation toward
Seattles hard-hitting defense or the noisy
12th Man, the Cowboys leaned on the 115
yards rushing from DeMarco Murray and a
clutch third-down pass from Tony Romo for
a 30-23 win over the Seahawks.
After Murray scored on a 15-yard run with
3:16 left to give Dallas the lead, the
Cowboys defense, which made Seattle quar-
terback Russell Wilson miserable all after-
noon, held twice in the nal 3 minutes.
The Cowboys forced Seattle to turn the
ball over on downs. After Dan Baileys
third eld goal pushed the lead to seven,
Rolando McClain intercepted Wilson near
mideld with less than a minute remaining
to seal one of the more impressive Dallas
wins in recent memory.
The Cowboys are 5-1 for the rst time
since 2007 and beating the defending
champions in Seattle
gives validity to the
surprising start.
Murray became the
second running back in
NFL history to start a
season with six straight
100-yutgained 401-206
and had just nine rst
downs. Marshawn
Lynch was used sparing-
ly, nishing with only
10 carries for 61 yards and most of Percy
Harvins plays went backward. Harvins
three receptions equaled minus-1 yard.
The only reason Seattle was in the game
was 14 points on special teams. Doug
Baldwin blocked Chris Jones punt and
Morgan returned it 25 yards for a touchdown
and a 10-0 lead in the rst quarter. Dwayne
Harris muffed a fair catch deep in his own
territory in the third quarter and Kevin
Pierre-Lewis emerged from the pile with the
ball. Two plays later, Wilson kept on a
zone-read and sprinted 9 yards to pull
Seattle even at 17.

Sciatica and Herniated Discs
May be to Blame for Pain
in Your Back and Neck
LOCAL CLINIC OFFERS FREE CONSULTATION TO THOSE SUFFERING FROM BACK AND NECK PAIN
Did 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 tech-
nology and experience to help you nd 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 inno-
cently 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 consider-
ing 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 Therapy Traction Decompression Com-
bined Therapy is a proven treatment exclu-
sive 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 specic traction.
TDC Therapy offers a signicant success rate
and patients have experienced dramatic pain
relief and healing. This nonsurgical 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 bulging discs
egenerative disc disease
Fosterior facet syndroue
Spinal Stenosis
Sciatica
TDC Therapy is nonsurgical and noninvasive.
It is a gentle form of traction and disc decom-
pression. 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 specic vertebra
and distract the vertebrae surrounding an
injured disc 5 to 7 millimeters. TDC Therapy
treatment isolates the specic vertebrae that
are causing the pain. The 25to30minute
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
rehydrating 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 herni-
ated discs, and promote selfhealing 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 suffer-
ing 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 Decompres-
sion 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 Medi-
cal Advisory Board on Spinal Decompres-
sion, and utilizes the protocols set forward
by r. Noruan Shealy the honorary Chair-
uan, foruer harvard professor, and prob-
ably the most published doctor in the world
on spinal decompression therapy.

NANNING, China Simone Biles of the
United States capped her dominance at the
gymnastics world championships on
Sunday, winning gold medals on the bal-
ance beam and the floor exercise on the
final day of competition.
Biles earned 15. 100 points for a solid
routine on the beam that opened with a
well-controlled double squat turn and
included three back handsprings.
I just wanted to go out there and hit all
my routines, it was a lot of fun, Biles said.
Im looking forward to the next world
championships and hopefully the
Olympics in 2016.
Bai Yawen of China won silver with
15. 033 points while Aliya Mustafina of
Russia claimed the bronze with 14. 166.

Miller in her career.
It blows my mind, Biles said of the new
mark. Its an incredible honor and Im so
happy.

U.S. wins first major
womens volleyball title
MILAN Kimberly Hill led the United
States to its first major womens volleyball
title, scoring 20 points in a 3-1 victory over
China on Sunday in the world championships.
Hill had the final kill, and captain Christa
Dietzen added 15 points in the Americans
27-25, 25-20, 16-25, 26-24 victory before
12, 600 fans at the Mediolanum Forum.
We came here to make history and we
made it, said U. S. coach Karch Kiraly, a
three-time Olympic champion. It was a
tough battle, but we made it.
The U. S. women had never won the world
championships, World Cup or Olympics.
The Americans finished second in the world
championships in 1967 and 2002.
Its the first time for the USA and we
made it, said Dietzen, the Hopewell
Township, Pennsylvania, player who had
knee surgery in December. We represented
present and future volleyball programs, but
most importantly we did it together.
The 6-foot-4 Hill, from Portland, Oregon,
was selected the tournaments best spiker.
Alisha Glass of Leland, Michigan, was hon-
ored as the best setter.
Zeng Chunlei led China with 20 points.
In Saturdays semifinals, the U. S. stunned
top-ranked Olympic champion Brazil 3-0.
Brazil beat Italy 25-15, 25-13, 22-25,

NAPA Bae Sang-moon built a big lead
and was steady enough on the back nine at
Silverado to win the Frys. com Open on
Sunday in the first event of the new PGA
Tour season.
Bae missed a short birdie putt on the 18th
that only affected the margin. He closed
with a 1-over 73, the first player on the
PGA Tour since Ben Crane at the St. Jude
Classic in June to win with a final round
over par.
He won by two shots over Steven
Bowditch, who closed with a 67 on a dry,
hot day in the Napa Valley.
The only drama came from the 28-year-old
South Korean, who was six shots ahead
when he made a par on the 10th hole. Bae
had a trio of three-putts two of them from
just off the green to start coming back to
the field.
But no one got closer than two shots all
day.
Hunter Mahan, one of four players in the
field who were in the Ryder Cup two weeks
ago, looked as if he might make a run when
he holed out from 91 yards on the 13th hole
for eagle to get within two shots of the lead.
But he hit a poor chip on the 15th that led to
bogey, and he barely got out of the bunker
on the par-5 16th that kept him from a
birdie.
Mahan closed with a 70 and wound up in
five-way tie for third with Retief Goosen,
Hideki Matsuyama, Martin Laird and Bryce
Molder. Matsuyama finished with two
straight birdies, and tied for third for the
second straight year at the Frys. com Open.
Zach Blair, the PGA Tour rookie who
played in the final group, was out of the mix
quickly with early bogeys. He had a 74 to
tie for 12th, five strokes back.
Bae, who finished at 15-under 273, won
for the second time in his career and earned
a return trip to the Masters in April.
He looked shaky, even when no one was
making a run at him. Bowditch birdied the
18th to reach 13-under 275, and he even
went to the practice range as Bae kept miss-
ing greens and scrambling for par.
Bae took three putts for bogeys on the
11th, 13th and 14th holes, though a 15-
foot birdie putt on the 12th steadied him
briefly. If there was a key shot, it might
have been on the par-5 16th. He drove into
a nasty lie in the rough, gouged it out to the
fairway, and then aggressively went at the
back pin with a sand wedge. It took one hop
on the firm greens and wound up in the
rough.
The chip came out clean and rolled to 2
feet for par and slight relief. He again went
just over the back on the 17th, and hit
another safe chip to tap-in range that kept
his lead at two shots playing the par-5
18th.

Pinch-hitter Joaquin Arias had an RBI
groundout in the fifth, Hunter Pence a run-
scoring single in the sixth and Gregor Blanco
drove in a run in the seventh with a single.
Then things fell apart, with the Cardinals
hitting solo shots in each of the final three
innings.
Taveras, the Cardinals top prospect but a
bit of a disappointment since a midseason
callup, homered just inside the right-field foul
pole off Machi in the seventh.
Adams connected off Strickland. Strickland
can reach triple-digits with his fastball but
pitched just seven innings in the major
leagues before the postseason, skipping
Triple-A on his way up. He has a win and a
save in the postseason, but has yielded four
homers in four games.
The Giants scrambled to tie it in the ninth on a
mad dash home. Singles by pinch-hitter Andrew
Susac and Juan Perez put runners at first and sec-
ond. Matt Duffy pinch-ran for Susac.
Down to their last strike, Duffy sprinted all
the way from second on a
two-out wild pitch by St.
Louis closer Trevor
Rosenthal.
Wong homered on
Romos second pitch,
touching off a celebration
at home plate.
Changeup, down the
middle, Romo said. It
was a mistake.
Bochy defended his relievers.
Theyve all done such a great job, Bochy
said. Theyre the reason were in this situa-
tion.
The win for St. Louis was costly. All-Star
catcher Yadier Molina strained a muscle on
his left side while hitting into a double play
in the sixth inning. His availability going
forward isnt certain.
We dont know much more about it right
now, Cardinals manager Mike Matheny
said. Hes out getting some looks right now
from the doctors. And well know later. But
didnt look real good.
Molinas replacement, Tony Cruz, commit-
ted a passed ball that help set up San
Franciscos go-ahead run in the seventh, and
he couldnt initially find where the ball went
on Rosenthals wild pitch
in the ninth, allowing
Duffy to sprint home.
The road loss was rare
for the Giants, who had
won seven straight play-
off games away from
home before Sunday.

Hudson pitched well
vs. Washington in Game
2 of the Division Series,

innings.

postseason innings.
Home away from home?
Fog began to descend on Busch Stadium
late in the game, creating a San Francisco-
like atmosphere, but it never got much
below roof level and didnt appear to affect
visibility.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. Resilience and per-
severance are two traits that have come to
epitomize the Kansas City Royals, whove
turned into a playoff force with their run of
late-inning wins.
Theyre two qualities that the Baltimore
Orioles had better embrace.
After taking the first two games of the AL
Championship Series at the bandbox known
as Camden Yards, the Royals return to spa-
cious Kauffman Stadium needing two more
wins to reach the World Series in their first
playoff appearance since winning it all in
1985.
Game 3 is Monday night, with two more
games on deck in Kansas City the second
only if needed. And make no mistake the
Orioles are desperate to play all of them.
Youve got to win four games, Baltimore
manager Buck Showalter said. Youve got to
keep from losing three. And thats obviously
oversimplifying it. But you look at teams that
compete during the course of the season, they
compete on the road, too.
The Orioles were 46-35 on the road this sea-
son, a decent mark but by no means the same
level of dominance that they exhibited at
home. And now their power-hitting lineup has
to try to punch balls over the outfield fence at
one of the least homer-friendly ballparks in
the game, a stadium that lends itself to the
Royals strong suits: pitching and defense.
The Orioles will also have to overcome a
daunting bit of history. Since the best-of-
seven format was adopted 29 years ago, none
of the previous 11 teams that dropped the first
two games of a league championship series at
home rallied to reach the World Series.
Were grown men. Were not little kids who
need to sit in a circle and play Duck, Duck,
Goose, Orioles outfielder Adam Jones said,
when asked whether there would be any spe-
cial pep talks before the game. Were just
going to approach it as weve approached
every game all season, and do what we do
best.
Wei-Yin Chen starts for the Orioles against
former Baltimore pitcher Jeremy Guthrie.
While the Orioles are trying to buck histo-
ry, the Royals have been making some.
The same club that languished below .500
in late July has seemingly become invincible
when the game is on the line. The Royals
became the first team in major league history
to win four playoff games in extra innings
with their 8-6, 10-inning triumph in Game 1
on Friday night, and then added another chap-
ter to their memorable postseason in Game 2
on Saturday.
After the Orioles kept rallying to tie the
game, Alcides Escobar delivered a go-ahead
double in the ninth inning that propelled
Kansas City to a 6-4 victory.
Over the past few years weve played a lot
of close games, Royals closer Greg Holland
said. The reason were here now is weve
learned how to win those games. When you
learn how to win those games, it kind of
builds on itself and you know you can.
The Royals have certainly embraced a flair
for the dramatic.
Beginning with their rally from a four-run
deficit in the eighth inning of their wild-card
game against Oakland, and right through a
pair of extra-inning wins over the Angels in
the divisional round, the Royals have thrived
when the game is in the balance.
It helps that they have one of the best
bullpens in baseball. Kelvin Herrera, Wade
Davis and Holland have been just as dynamic
in the playoffs as they were in the regular sea-
son. And considering that neither the Royals
nor Orioles have had a starter go deep in a
game yet, the play of both bullpens already
has proven pivotal.
We just want to get the ball to our bullpen
with the lead, Royals outfielder Jarrod Dyson
said. If we can do that, we know we got it.

Its definitely big-time football between those two
schools, Johnston said.
An average of 15,000 fans, and as many as 18,000, have
attended each matchup between the two teams, according to
Chandler head coach Shaun Aguano. But last years win by
the Wolves was especially emotional for the locals.
Its a big emotional win, especially for the city of
Chandler because most of the people in Chandler went to
school here, Aguano said.
Hamilton is poised for another dominant season though.
In addition to Fridays historic win, the Huskies added to the
record book earlier this season when quarterback James
Sosinski connected with junior wide receiver Kyeler Burke
for a 98-yard touchdown pass the longest in school histo-
ry.
Burke is one of an arsenal of receivers Johnston coaches.
Each measure well above the 6-foot mark. Thats a big stretch
from Johnstons days as 5-9 All-State wide receiver when he
played for Head Coach Mike Tenerowicz at South City.
Times have changed, Johnston said. When we first
started at Hamilton, we had to go with my kind of guys, the
5-8, 5-9 shifty guys. Now its more the 6-2, 6-3, 6-4 guys
who can go up and get it.
Going on to play for BYU head coach Lavell Edwards and
offensive coordinator Norm Chow now the head coach at
University of Hawaii Johnston learned how to capitalize
on the intellectual side of the game.
[Chow] taught me a lot about the game, Johnston said.
That was more of a thinking thing than a physical thing. We
were mentally sharp more than we were physically sharp at
BYU. I think we had to, with the types of athletes we had. He
definitely showed you how to win from a standpoint of Xs
and Os.
That is that basis upon which Johnston has built his
coaching success.
Once it clicked, it made football easy, Johnston said. I
think Ive been able to pass a lot of that on to our athletes
here, to understand coverages, to understand what the defense
is trying to do and taking what the defense gives you.
And South Citys native son has long since found a home
under the big skies of Chandler, Arizona.
It didnt take me long to feel at home, Johnston said.
Its just a matter of getting used to the heat. I think that was
the biggest problem right when I got here. Im not used to
117 degrees. So it took me a little while to get used to the
heat. But in general, the friendliness of the people, it was a
perfect fit.

CHICAGO Eliud Kipchoge had an ear-to-
ear grin while he ran away with the Chicago
Marathon. Minutes later, Rita Jeptoo raised
her arms and sunk to her knees after she
repeated as womens champion.
It was quite a day for the Kenyans.
Kipchoge led a 1-2-3 finish for his country
at the Chicago Marathon, while Jeptoo again
took the prize for the women on Sunday.
Kipchoge pulled away over the last two
miles for his first major marathon victory,
finishing in 2 hours, 4 minutes, 11 seconds.
He was followed by Sammy Kitwara in
2:04:28 and Dickson Chumba in 2:04:32.
Jeptoo was timed in 2:24:35 in winning
her fourth straight major marathon. She also
won the Boston Marathon in April and cap-
tured the 2013-14 World Marathon Majors
points championship.
Mare Dibaba of Ethiopia (2:25:37) was
second and Florence Kiplagat of Kenya
(2:25:57) was third.
Today was a great day
for me and my fans, said
Jeptoo, who struggled
with the wind on a day
when the temperature was
ideal. Im happy to be
here. ... I was having fun.
The Americans swept
the wheelchair races, with
Joshua George winning
the mens event and
Tatyana McFadden who
competed in June in the U.S. Paralympic
Championship at College of San Mateo
capturing her 11th major marathon victory.
It was McFaddens fourth straight win in
Chicago and fifth in six years. If she finishes
first at the New York City Marathon next
month, she will complete her second grand
slam with four majors in one season.With a
flat course and an ideal forecast, there was
plenty of talk before the race about fast times.
The skies were clear and the temperature
46 degrees was just about right when the
race started. But the wind picked up and the
mens and womens leaders didnt break away
until the latter stages of the races.
Its the marathon, executive race director
Carey Pinkowski said. We talked a lot about
fast times. ... It became tactical racing. The
women obviously started watching each
other a little bit. The men became much more
of a competition and much more gamesman-
ship. So that was exciting. Toward the end
there, Eliud ran a great race and finished real-
ly strong. You bring the best athletes togeth-
er, they complement each other and (you
have) great competition.
The mens pack stayed together for about
20 miles before Kipchoge, Kitwara and
Chumba drew away.
Kipchoge and Kitwara were side by side
with Chumba right behind after 24 miles. But
Kipchoge made it look easy down the
stretch. He made a quick burst and was in
command as he headed toward the finish at
Grant Park, grinning for the final few miles.
To enjoy the streets of Chicago, you need
to smile, he said.
Kipchoge, a two-time Olympic medalist in
the 5, 000 meters, was competing in his
fourth marathon. He ran his first one in 2013
and is getting used to the longer distance.
To run a good marathon, (you need) good
preparation and good planning, he said.
This is the fourth one. I can say my plan-
ning with my coaches is (good). I now under-
stand. Im still learning the ropes, but I can
say today I am now fully experienced. ... I am
happy to be one of the winners here.
Jeptoo hasnt lost a major marathon since
she finished second in a sprint to Ethiopias
Atsede Baysa in the 2012 Chicago Marathon.
She smashed the course record when she
repeated as Boston Marathon champion in the
spring and came away with an easy victory in
Chicago for the second straight year.

half of the equation for Dias, who
began coaching in Fort Hood,
Texas while still in the U. S. Army
when his friend Mike Dorsey
asked him to join the staff of the
Pop Warner squad, the Fort Hood
Eagles. The other side of the equa-
tion, though, is Dias insistence
on building good young men.
From that mission was born
Dias famed life lessons. Every
Wednesday, he takes time out
from football practice to talk to
his players about myriad life
virtues, based on honor, courage,
gratitude and even how to treat a
lady.
I talk about life, Dias said. I
have a different subject on each
lesson. I always start the year
with the poem The Man in the
Mirror because hes the guy
youve got to look at every day;
and you cant pull the wool over
his eyes. He knows whats going
on. Then I build on characteristics
that help you like that man in the
mirror.
Dias life lessons were among
the reasons for his being named
the 2013 CCS Football Honor
Coach.
To receive that level of recog-
nition is what everyone dreams
about, Dias said. Im incredibly
humbled and grateful.
Yet getting results on the field
is imperative, and Dias knows
how to get them. Like many PAL
teams, Half Moon Bay is notori-
ous for not growing the biggest
linemen. So, Dias builds them,
and builds them well one of the
reasons the Cougars are off to a 4-
1 start this sea-
son, including
a 29-20 win in
their PAL Ocean
Division open-
er last Friday at
San Mateo.
So, when it
comes to talk-
ing blocking,
Dias gets quite
scientific very quickly.
The first thing I look for is
balance, Dias said. How well
does an individual, when were
going through drill, does he keep
his nose over his toes?
Then Dias goes for the heart and
looks to ignite players passions
with the good, old-fashioned
football virtue of yelling like a
madman.
I am a huge technique-style
coach, Dias said. When I say I
was a six-inch power step, toes
north and south, thats exactly
what I want. I dont want three
inches. I dont want nine inches. I
dont want an 85-degree angle.
And Im sure I drive the guys
nuts.
Its a coaching technique Dias
has developed out of necessity.
I have had this kid every year
one of my linemen is 5-6,
150 pounds with wet shorts,
Dias said. The kids got no busi-
ness being an offensive lineman.
But hes got huge heart, hes got
great technique, hes got a pas-
sion for the game. And thats what
makes him successful.
Dias did leave Half Moon Bay
for a six-year stretch from 1998-
2003, in which time he took
over as Riordans offensive line
coach. When another one of his
former players, Half Moon Bay
alum Matt Ballard, took over as
the Cougars head coach in
2003, Dias said he knew it was
time to return home. He returned
the following year in 2004.
Even though Ballard was a full-
back, Dias considered him one of
his own on the offensive line.
Fullbacks are nothing more
than offensive linemen that carry
the football four times a game,
Dias said with his familiar affec-
tionate laugh.
In 2009, Half Moon Bay saw an
important addition to the coach-
ing staff when Rocky Perry came
aboard as the defensive line
coach. Dias and Perry worked in
tandem for five-plus seasons until
earlier this season, on Sept. 13,
when Perry died suddenly after suf-
fering a heart attack.
I really miss Rocky, Dias
said. All of us miss him dearly
because he was so good to our
kids, and he gave and brought so
much.
So, for anyone wondering why
the Cougars players ended Sunday
nights segment on Cal-Hi Sports
filmed on the field following
Friday nights win with a col-
lective rally cry of Rocky, its a
tribute to their recently departed
coach.
Half Moon Bay has yet to lose a
game since Perrys passing.

CONCORD, N. C. Mat t
Kenset h, usual l y so cal m and
composed, l ost hi s cool and
at t acked Brad Kesel owski at
Charlotte Motor Speedway.
If Kenseth is fighting, then
t empers are cert ai nl y runni ng
quite high. They reached a boil-
i ng poi nt i n t he aft ermat h of
Sat urday ni ght s race as
Kesel owski , Kenset h, Dal e
Earnhardt Jr. and Jimmie Johnson
all saw their championship hopes
fade to near-desperate status.
The pressure is on every
week in NASCARs new cham-
pionship format, and the frayed
nerves unraveled on the track, on
pit road and in the garage. Denny
Hamlin had to be restrained from
goi ng aft er Kesel owski , but
Kenseth got to the 2012 champi-
on i n t he dark al l ey-l i ke area
between a pair of Team Penske
haulers.
Kenset h qui ckl y approached
Keselowski from behind and near-
l y t ackl ed hi m. He had
Keselowski wrapped in his arms
when crew members qui ckl y
peeled him off, and Keselowski
crew chi ef Paul Wol fe pul l ed
Kenseth out of the scrum in what
appeared to be a choke hold.
As race winner Kevin Harvick
celebrated in Victory Lane, activ-
ity in the garage came to a near-
halt as drivers and crews watched
replays of the melee.
When you see Matt Kenseth
mad enough to fight, you know
that this is intense because thats
way out of character for him,
Harvick said. When you see that
emotion out of Matt Kenseth, you
know that NASCAR has done the
right thing to this Chase because
everybody i s on offense and
gouging for every single posi-
tion that you can get every lap.
That was at the root of the post-
race Charlotte activities: There is
no room for error in the Chase,
and a bad night will put a driver
on the brink of elimination.

ome people who come across stray
dogs want to help, but they are
either in a hurry, have kids in their
car or are slightly afraid of making contact
with an unfamiliar dog. We get it. Others,
however, make rescuing strays their mis-
sion and keep a leash and treats in their
car just for these situations. Folks in the
rst category can still help by calling
PHS/SPCA. Dog loose in trafc calls are
high priorities for PHS/SPCA ofcers, sec-
ond only to injured animal calls and calls
reporting attacks in progress. Our number
is 650/340-7022. If youve safely cor-
ralled the dog treats work very well
you may nd contact information on the
dogs caller, which can help you to reunite
the dog with his owner. If not, you can
contact PHS/SPCA. An ofcer will
respond, but please know that a call for a
conned dog is less urgent than a call for a
dog loose in trafc. Another option,
available 24/7, is driving the dog to our
intake facility at 12 Airport Blvd. in San
Mateo the old Coyote Point shelter.
When we arent open, people use the After
Hours drop-off located in our main parking
lot. When they leave a dog in one of these
After Hours kennels and ring the bell as
directed, our evening kennel staff will take
the dog back into our regular kennels.
Lastly, some people who rescue animals
are interested in adopting. Interested
adopters should visit our shelter with the
dog so we can scan for a microchip and so
they can complete a one-page Found
Animal form. They can either take the dog
home that day (we will contact them if an
owner comes forward or if no owner comes
forward). Or, they can leave the dog with
us and asked to be contacted once the
dogs state-mandated, four-day stray period
is over. Each year, a few dozen people
adopt pets from PHS/SPCA this way.

LOS ANGELES Four new films could-
nt catch Gone Girl at theaters this
weekend.
The Fox thriller starring Ben Affleck as
a man whose wife goes missing is poised
to top the box office for a second week
wi t h $26. 8 mi l l i on i n t i cket sal es,
according to studio estimates Sunday.
Also starring Rosamund Pike, Gone
Girl is based on the best-selling novel
by Gillian Flynn, who adapted her book
for the screen.
Theres a mystery thats surrounding
t hi s movi e, sai d Paul Dergarabedi an,
senior media analyst for box-office track-
er Rentrak. To have an adult drama like
this hold up so well for two weekends in a
row is really unusual.
Universals Dracula Untold opened in
second place with $23. 4 million. The
Disney family romp, Alexander and the
Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad
Day, debuted in third with $19. 1 mil-
lion.
Two Warner Bros. films round out the
top five. The horror Annabelle claimed
fourth place in its second week of release
wi t h $16. 3 mi l l i on, fol l owed by t he
Robert Downey Jr. -Robert Duvall drama,
The Judge, which debuted with $13. 3
million.
Lionsgates erotic thriller Addicted
opened in seventh pl ace with $7. 6 mil-
lion.
The diversity of choices at theaters is
maki ng for robust post -summer t i cket
sales, Dergarabedian said: Were making
up a lot of ground after a summer season
that was down 15 percent.
Est i mat ed t i cket sal es for Fri day
through Sunday at U. S. and Canadian the-
aters, according to Rentrak. Where avail-
able, the latest international numbers are
also included. Final domestic figures will
be released Monday.

ST. LOUIS Officers arrested
17 protesters and used pepper
spray to subdue some of them
Sunday in a St. Louis neighbor-
hood not far from the suburb where
violence erupted this summer after
the shooting of a black man by a
white policeman.
The arrests were the only inci-
dent in an otherwise peaceful
weekend of demonstrations in the
city to protest the fatal shooting
of 18-year-old Michael Brown in
Ferguson in August. The shooting
sparked sometimes violent
demonstrations in the predomi-
nantly black suburb.
Early Sunday morning, about
200 protesters gathered in Shaw, a
south St. Louis neighborhood
where last week another black 18-
year-old was killed by a white
police officer, St. Louis Police
Chief Sam Dotson said. The pro-
testers, some wearing masks,
marched toward a QuikTrip con-
venience store and tried to force
open its doors, Dotson said.
Riot police told the crowd to
disperse but some 50 protesters
linked their arms to create a human
chain, he said. About half of them
heeded the police warning.
The people who were left there
were people who made a conscious
decision they wanted to be arrest-
ed, Dotson said.
At least one officer was hit by a
rock but was not seriously injured,
and officers used pepper spray to
get those arrested to comply with
police, Dotson said. Police were
charging those arrested with
unlawful assembly then releasing
them Sunday.
Community activists and organ-
izers of the weekend of protests did
not respond to Associated Press
requests Sunday for comment on
the police version of events.
The planned demonstrations
began Friday afternoon with a
march outside the St. Louis
County prosecutors office, where
protesters renewed calls for prose-
cutor Bob McCulloch to charge
Darren Wilson, a white Ferguson
officer, in the Aug. 9 death of
Brown. A grand jury is reviewing
the case and the Justice
Department has opened a civil
rights investigation.
Since Browns death, three other
fatal police shootings of black
males have occurred in the St.
Louis area. The most recent
involved an off-duty St. Louis
officer who was working for a pri-
vate neighborhood security patrol
when he shot and killed 18-year-
old Vonderrit D. Myers on
Wednesday night.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska A fed-
eral judge on Sunday struck down
Alaskas first-in-the-nation ban
on gay marriages, the latest court
decision in a busy week for the
issue across the country.
It wasnt immediately clear
when marriage licenses would be
issued to same-sex couples in the
state, however the state does have
a three-day waiting period
between applications and mar-
riage ceremonies.
The state intends to appeal the
ruling, Sharon Leighow, a spokes-
woman for Gov. Sean Parnell, said
in an email to The Associated
Press.
This is just an amazing day for
Alaska. Were just so fortunate
that so many have fought for
equality for so long I mean,
decades, said Susan Tow, who
along with her wife, Chris
Laborde, were among couples who
sought to overturn Alaskas ban.
Tow and Laborde, who married in
Maryland last year, planned to
meet with other plaintiffs, some
by phone, later Sunday to cele-
brate.
Five gay couples had asked the
state of Alaska to overturn a con-
stitutional amendment approved
by voters in 1998 that defined
marriage as being between one
man and one woman.
The lawsuit filed in May sought
to bar enforcement of Alaskas
constitutional ban on same-sex
marriage. It also called for barring
enforcement of any state laws that
refuse to recognize gay marriages
legally performed in other states
or countries or that prevent unmar-
ried gay couples from marrying.
U. S. District Judge Timothy
Burgess heard arguments Friday
afternoon and promised a quick
decision. He released his 25-page
decision Sunday afternoon.
Refusing the rights and respon-
sibilities afforded by legal mar-
riage sends the public a govern-
ment-sponsored message that
same-sex couples and their famil-
ial relationships do not warrant
the status, benefits and dignity
given to couples of the opposite
sex, Burgess wrote.
This Court finds that Alaskas
same-sex marriage laws violate
the Due Process and Equal
Protection Clauses of the
Fourteenth Amendment because no
state interest provides excessive-
ly persuasive justification for the
significant infringement of rights
that they inflicted upon homosex-
ual individuals, he wrote.
Messages sent Sunday to the
states attorney generals offices
were not immediately returned.
If the state does appeal to the
9th Circuit Court, chances of win-
ning were slim since the federal
appeals court already has ruled
against Idaho and Nevada, which
made similar arguments.
Alaska voters in 1998 approved
a state constitutional amendment
defining marriage as being
between one man and one woman.
But in the past year, the U. S.
Supreme Court has struck down a
provision of the federal Defense of
Marriage Act that prevented legal-
ly married same-sex couples from
receiving a range of federal bene-
fits. Federal courts also have since
struck down state constitutional
bans in a number of states.

divulge the potential buyer or the pur-
chase price, said Vice President Sean
Jeffries.
However, Jeffries said the company
is very happy to see progress on the
property it has held since 2006.
Were very excited while disap-
pointed that we wont be developing it
ourselves, Jeffries said.
The original plan had been to work
with an adjoining property owner and
find a tenant but the office market grew
sluggish and the effort shifted to a
joint venture and then eventually a
sales agreement, he said.
Brownrigg, who also couldnt
divulge more about the potential buy-
ers, said it seems to be a good group of
people based on a meeting the city had
with the parties.
We appreci at ed Mi l l enni um
i nt roduci ng t he group t o us, he
s ai d. The group we met was
ext remel y i mpressi ve.
There has also been news that the
China-based e-commerce giant
Alibaba Group will do some kind of a
significant lease in the Bay Area given
the enormous size of its IPO Sept. 19.
An Alibaba representative said the
company wont be commenting on
any search for office space at this time.
It has been reported, however, that
Alibaba is leasing space in San Mateo
at 400 S. El Camino Real.
Meanwhile, part of making the
Burlingame Bayfront property work
for offices will be increasing transit
options such as linking new shuttle
services with Caltrain, a project offi-
cials are just now beginning to study.
I certainly believe we will do won-
ders for office space over there and
hotels, Brownrigg said. A much
more robust shuttle service that links
Millbrae, BART and Caltrain would be
a terrific asset for business visitors,
hotel guests and residents.
Development there would also cre-
ate a large new population at the
sout hern poi nt of Burl i ngame.
Having a bidirectional service would
be helpful to those wanting to get to
the area, he said.
Right now, the shuttle comes very
infrequently and only in one direc-
tion, Brownrigg said. Its not a very
convenient service. Especially during
rush hour, that would be great for resi-
dents, employees and visitors.
Burlingame Councilman Ricardo
Ortiz expressed concerns about traffic
and the fact he thinks Peninsula
Avenue needs on- and off-ramps from
southbound Highway 101. Still, he is
excited about potential development.
Regardless of who the owners are,
were ready, he said.
The site, which housed the
Burlingame Drive-In, was demolished
about 10 years ago, according to the
citys website.
We are looking forward to this
underutilized parcel being developed,
said City Manager Lisa Goldman.

report.

DRIVE-IN
eral years back, when a court over-
turned another city or county trying to
impose prevailing wages on private
developers and isnt sure if San Mateo
could legally extend its ordinance.
Nonetheless, the council still asks
developers to support local work-
forces.
According to the states Department
of Industrial Relations, it sets prevail-
ing wages about twice a year based on
the basic hourly rate a majority of pub-
lic works employees in a certain craft
make within a specific region.
Prevailing wages vary greatly by
specialty. In San Mateo as of Aug. 22,
the hourly prevailing wage for a land-
scape pipefitter plumber is $26. 55
while a plumber who fits fire protec-
tion sprinklers should make a mini-
mum $52. 42 per hour. The hourly pre-
vailing wage for an electrician in San
Mateo is between $31. 32 and $52. 50,
according to the department.
The department also outlines pen-
sions, vacations, health and welfare
and overtime employer contributions.
Although passing the ordinance
simply codified existing policy, it was
an important move for the city as it
has several upcoming projects that
rely on state funding.
San Mateo will participate in a state
revolving loan fund to help pay for
sewer and wastewater collection sys-
tem improvements, City Manager
Larry Patterson said. The city also uses
state and federal grants for its com-
plete street projects and for numerous
other public works projects, Patterson
said.
At any given time, I would venture
to say we have at least one or more
state or federal funding sources being
used to improve our infrastructure,
Patterson said.
The states labor code doesnt apply
to contracts for construction projects
of $25, 000 or less, as well as alter-
ation, demolition, repair or mainte-
nance projects $15, 000 or less,
according to a city staff report.
Lim said its important to keep
tradesmen in and a part of San Mateo
and the new ordinance upholds the
citys policy.
In order to keep things competitive
and in order to provide jobs in our
community, where we know the money
is going to come back into our com-
munity, and to allow working class
folks to live in our community and
send their kids to our schools, we
need to pay prevailing wages, Lim
said. We also think the work quality
is better when you have a local work
force who take pride in what theyre
building. Theres a sort of pride in
ownership.

about their social behavior.
The survey reported a huge spike in
at-home drinking. In 2005, 14 percent
of teens using alcohol reported doing
so at home but, by 2013, the figure
increased to 44. 16 percent.
In 2009, 51. 5 percent of the teens
surveyed said adults dont know that
they drink and, in 2013, 82. 4 percent,
or eight out of 10, teens said their par-
ents or guardians were unaware of their
alcohol use either at home or that of a
friend.
Mary Bier, a prevention consultant
with the NCPP, said parents allowing
minors to drink at home creates an
environment that leads to addiction.
Under Canepas proposed ordinance,
the activity may also lead to financial
penalties. The proposal gives Daly
City police the authority to cite
responsible adults with a $1, 500 fine
for a first violation, a $2, 000 fine for
the second and eventually a $2, 500
fine for a third. The city can also seek
to recover costs for police, fire and
emergency services.
An appeals officer in the city will
hear each case to determine if the ordi-
nance has been violated.
A similar so-called social host
ordinance is already in place in
Pacifica, Canepa said.
The Daly City Council meets 7 p. m.
Monday at City Hall, 333 90th St. ,
Daly City.

LOCAL 30 Monday Oct. 13, 2014 THE DAILY JOURNAL
The Villa Mateo is not in Daly City, its
in Colma.
All of the area used to be Colma until it
became Daly City. The Willow Tree is in
Colma as well as the Cabbage Patch.
The Cabbage Patch, you ever been in the
Cabbage Patch? What a place. On the El
Camino corner of Colma. Looks like a
fortress now. Need to be frisked just to get
in the front gate, if they let you in. Check
you for guns now after that shooting inci-
dent last month.
I dont go there ever. Looks like Grand
Central Station with all of the buses parked
around there. Its easier to go to the Willow
Tree and play.
I thought the Chinese had their own
joint? The Ching Bock Hims or Hinge I
think its called.
That was closed down. Along with the
Palms Club over on Bayshore Highway.
Took 163 and over $42, 000 in that raid.
Would have gotten more but half of the
building was inside the San Francisco
County line, but the sheriff came in the side
door on the San Mateo County side and
caught them unawares. The boss at the
Palms Club was being taught a lesson, he
didnt pay up that month and the police got
mad. Funny thing, though, the San
Francisco half of the building kept open all
of the time and the sheriff couldnt do any-
thing about it. It was out of his jurisdiction.
OK, I got it. A man from a nearby table
got up and walked to the bar and put a bill on
the counter. I got it. Ten bucks says you
cant name 20 places that have slots on the
Peninsula right now. Put up or shut up.
Twenty places? Thats a lot of places for
slots.
Start naming or shut up.
Twenty spots? Only slots?
Dicks Tower, Brisbane.
No slots there, only cards and book-
making.
OK, OK, Joes down the street.
Right, 19 to go.
Joes, Andys Pool Room , Town Club,
Gypsies, Millbrae Tavern, 16 Mile House,
Uncle Toms Cabin.
Yellowstone, Millbrae, someone shout-
ed.
Foul, he has to name them, no help from
you.
Crossroads, Docs Chile Parlor, Lomita
Park, Georges Log Cabin. Lets see, thats
10. Ten to go.
Gets hard now, doesnt it?
The Smoke Shop over in South City, 23
Club, Brisbane, Book and Saddle Club and
the Pine Hut Bar in Belmont. Stopped by
there last week.
Tip- Top Inn and Millbrae Tavern,
Millbrae.
Foul games over, you named the
Millbrae Tavern twice.
Theyre all over Millbrae. Thats why
they call Millbrae the Little Tijuana of the
North.
Ten bucks, thats what you owe me.
Too bad I didnt have the bet, another
insinuated to his buddy on the chair next to
him. Could have named 30 or 40 places.
Almost any cafe, restaurant or bar has slots.
Heard the other day that over 8, 000 slots are
in the county. Costello, out of New York
controls them. Nothing the sheriff can do
until he gets more help and more pressure
by the citizens to get rid of them.
Rediscovering the Peninsula by Darold
Fredricks appears in the Monday edition of
the Daily Journal.
HISTORY
And now my dad and mom are i n
charge, Perkins said.
The warehouse is filled to the brim with
Harleys, even with San Francisco police
labels on expensive models waiting to be
serviced. Crammed into spaces in San
Francisco, the company has moved south
to spread out so they could put sales and
services in the same building. Their 1914
location was on Market Street in San
Francisco, but then moved around the city
before endi ng up on t he corner of
Nort hpoi nt St reet and Tayl or St reet at
Fi shermans Wharf wi t h t hei r second
l arger l ocat i on now i n Sout h San
Francisco on Corey Way.
Weve been t hrough many ups and
downs, the last 10 years have kind of
sucked, but bei ng abl e t o persevere
t hrough i t gi ves you ki nd of a good
appreciation for things, Perkins said.
Thi s was not t he fi rst t i me i t went
through an economic downturn. During
the Great Depression, the company said it
sold only 15 motorcycles in one year.
The company now sells motorcycle gear,
parts and Harley Davidson branded appar-
el, as well as keeping the entire first
floor dedicated to servicing Harleys of all
shapes and sizes.
The biggest change is the bikes, it was
a lot easier to work on your own bike 100
years ago, and it was just an engine with
parts that were easily fixed. Nowadays, a
comput er runs t he bi ke a l ot more,
Perkins said.
The bui l di ngs ent rance feat ures an
enlarged photo of a young Dudley Perkins
Sr. holding his early model Harley on one
wheel in the air on a grassy terrain.
Perkins Sr. had started the dealership a
mere 11 years after the Harley was invent-
ed in 1903, he has been cited in an August
1975 article by Ed Remitz in Cycle World
as havi ng seen t he ent i re hi st ory of
motorcycles unfold before his death in
1978.
Yet, Harleys and the types of people
who ride them have changed dramatically
over t he l ast 100 years si nce t hen,
Perkins said.
While Harleys have become mechani-
cally more advanced since Dudley Perkins
Sr. fi rst st art ed t he deal ershi p, t he
Perki nses hope t hat t hei r fami l y wi l l
always be a part of the dealership.
Christopher Perkins has a sister who
had worked in with the company during
high school, but is now doing unrelated
work. He has two sons but plans on put-
ting no pressure on them to pursue the
fami l y busi ness i n t he comi ng years.
Whet her t he company wi l l be run hi s
sons or not, he hopes that the business
can go on for another 100 years, he
said.
A cent enni al cel ebrat i on Sept . 13
blocked off Corey Way for a street fair
which included a motorcycle show with
multiple models of bikes from each year
si nce 1914, beer and food.
Approxi mat el y 4, 000 peopl e at t ended
and Perkins said it was a good way to cel-
ebrate not only being a business that sur-
vived 100 years, but a family-owned busi-
ness that survived 100 years with the
people who made it possible.
The best t hi ng i s our cl i ent el e,
Perkins said.
Whi l e st ereot ypi cal l y, t he ki nds of
people who rode bikes were limited to
one group, or t he mal e mi ddl e-aged
bi ker, t he t ypes of peopl e who ri de
Harleys have become younger and more
diverse, he said.
We have everyone: old, young, guys,
girls, straight, bi, every religion, high
school ki ds, everyone, Perki ns sai d.
It s i nt erest i ng t o see how t hi s one
machi ne can bri ng al l t hese peopl e
together.

CANADENSIS, Pa. For the past
month, ambush suspect Eric Frein has capi-
talized on relatively mild temperatures,
dense tree cover and his own survival skills
to successfully elude a manhunt in the
woods of Pennsylvanias Pocono
Mountains.
Now that its getting colder and the leaves
are starting to fall, the advantage could
soon shift to law enforcement, experts say.
But the challenge remains no less daunting
as police track an armed suspect already
accused of killing one officer and injuring
another in a wilderness that offers plen-
ty of places to hide.
I wish people could understand how hard
it is to find people in the woods, said
Patrick Patten, who helped track Eric
Rudolph, the 1996 Atlanta Olympics
bomber who eluded authorities for years in
the woods of western North Carolina. It
truly is a massive undertaking.
The Sept. 12 ambush outside the
Blooming Grove state police barracks
killed Cpl. Bryon Dickson, seriously
wounded Trooper Alex Douglass and
touched off a manhunt whose scale and
intensity is unrivaled in modern
Pennsylvania history.
Day after day, tactical teams looking for
Frein creep through the woods around his
parents home in Canadensis, using sticks
and ski poles to prod the dense underbrush.
Dogs sniff for explosives, weapons and
ammunition and any sign of the suspect.
Troopers maintain a perimeter.
A month after the attack, residents have
grown accustomed to the constant police
presence in this rugged corner of the state.
A woman fetching her mail seemed unfazed
last week as more than a dozen camouflaged
officers surrounded a vacant home across
the street. She walked back up her driveway
without so much as a glance.
Others are more unnerved.

advantage as leaves fall

CAIRO Donors at an interna-
tional conference Sunday prom-
ised $2. 7 billion to rebuild the
war-ravaged Gaza Strip, but all of
the key participants said their
efforts would be futile without a
permanent peace between Israel
and the Palestinians.
U. S. -mediated talks broke down
this summer before the 50-day war
between Hamas and Israel began
the third since 2008 and it
remains unclear how peace can
come about.
Norwegian Foreign Minister
Borge Brende, who co-chaired the
one-day meeting with Egypt, said
pledges of $5. 4 billion have been
made, but that only half of that
money would be dedicated to the
reconstruction of the coastal strip.
Brende did not say what the other
half of the funds would be spent
on. Other delegates have spoken
of budgetary support, boosting
economic activity, emergency
relief and other projects.
The message was clear to the
international community that the
Palestinian brothers are not
alone, Egyptian Foreign
Minister Sameh Shukri told a news
conference after the meeting.
Qatar offered the biggest dona-
tion of $1 billion once again
using its vast wealth to reinforce
its role as a regional player. The
United Arab Emirates a Gulf
Arab rival of Qatar promised
$200 million.
The pledges followed U. S.
Secretary of State John Kerrys
announcement of immediate
American assistance of $212 mil-
lion. The European Union pledged
450 million euros ($568 million),
while Turkey, which has been
playing a growing regional role,
said it was donating $200 million.
Qatari Foreign Minister Khalid
bin Mohammed al-Attiyah, in
announcing his countrys pledge,
denounced the international
silence that surrounded Gazas
destruction.
While the Palestinian people
need financial support, they need
more political support from the
international community, he said.
Ajust peace is the only real guar-
antee for not destroying what we are
about to rebuild and reconstruct.
Delegates representing about 50
nations and 20 regional and inter-
national organizations applauded
the pledge by Qatar. The Emirates
and Saudi Arabia, however, allege
that Qatar is using its wealth to
undermine regional stability, pri-
marily through meddling in other
nations affairs and aiding mili-
tant Islamic groups.

HYDERABAD, India A power-
ful cyclone was pounding a large
swath of Indias eastern seaboard
with heavy rain and strong winds
on Sunday, killing at least six
people and causing major damage
to buildings and crops, in one of
two storms lashing Asia.
In Japan, at least 35 people were
reported injured as Typhoon
Vongfong, packing winds of up to
180 kilometers (110 miles) per
hour and heavy rain, hit the south-
ern island of Okinawa and was
aiming at the island of Kyushu,
where authorities told 150, 000
people to evacuate.
Cyclone Hudhud had winds of
195 kilometers (120 miles) per
hour when the edge of the storm
hit land after sweeping through
the Bay of Bengal, Chief Staff
Officer of Indias Eastern Naval
Command Rear Admiral S. K.
Grewal told reporters. The
cyclones wind speed dipped to
about 160 kph (100 mph), but was
expected to pick up again later
Sunday, he said.
Experts said the storm was like-
ly to cause widespread devastation
along nearly 300 kilometers (185
miles) of Indias east coast.
A statement by Indias Home
Ministry late Sunday said that the
cyclone left at least six people
dead three in Andhra Pradesh
state and another three in neigh-
boring Orissa state. Also, the com-
munication services and the sup-
ply of electricity have been con-
siderably hit in the region, it said.
It also said that a detailed
assessment would be carried out as
soon as the wind speed is reduced
and the roads are cleared. The wind
speed is expected to go down to 60
kilometers (40 miles) per hour by
Monday morning.
At least 400, 000 people were
evacuated from the coastal areas
of Andhra Pradesh and Ori ssa
states ahead of the storm, and
hundreds of shelters were set up to
house them.
