San Mateo firefighters are investigating whether a fouralarm apartment fire that broke out Thursday evening

in damage may have been sparked by a computer that was
plugged in and left on a downstairs bed.
The blaze was first reported around 10:45 p.m. at 2391

Preservation of coastal farm land grows


Nonprofit POST leases 74-acre site to Blue House Farms
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The scenic San Mateo County coastline


offers more than gorgeous beaches and
recreational exploration, its home to a rich
agricultural industry that a local nonprofit
seeks to protect. In working to preserve
farmlands on the coast, the Peninsula Open
Space Trust has partnered with local organic
farmer Ryan Casey to keep a 74-acre farm in
production.
The arrangement is part of POSTs Future
Farmlands Initiative, through which it
hopes to triple the number of protected agricultural sites in San Mateo County over the
next decade.
Despite the fruitful soils and spectacular
open space views of these coastal farms,
various sites are at risk of development as
longtime farmers retire and fewer enter into
the laborious industry. With more than a
third of the countys farmlands lost over the
last 30 years, the nonprofit POST launched
the initiative to permanently protect two
dozen farms.
Its an incredible opportunity that I have
to get a long-term lease with the option of
purchase on such an amazing part of this
coastline, Casey said. Farming is an
incredibly challenging profession and I
think that over the next seven to 10 years,
its only going to become increasingly
more difficult. Despite the growing interest
in organic food, farmers are under incredible
pressure from many different directions.
POST, their primary role that theyve played
in helping me out, is by providing me with
a ground to grow and a long-term lease that
helps with stability.
Last week, POST announced it will again
work with Casey, owner of the 10-year-old
Blue House Farm, to keep the 74-acre San
Gregorio site arable and productive.

SAN MATEO

Peninsula Open Space Trust awarded Blue House Farm a long-term agricultural lease on
74-acres of POST-owned farmland in San Gregorio.
From organic fruit and vegetables to fresh
flowers, Blue House produce can be found at
a range of local farmers markets and restaurants. Casey was chosen after a competitive
process and review of 10 applicants, and the
new agreement will double the amount of
land Blue House manages on the coast,
according to POST.
Ive always been an organic farmer and I
farm organically because I believe firmly
that an organic vegetable is healthier for
the people eating it, and the workers on
organic farms are working under safer conditions, and a lot of the practices organic
farmers are using are beneficial to the soil
and to the water around them, to the wildlife
and to the environment in general, Casey
said.
Casey is now actively farming vegetables
on 20 acres of his new farmland while planting cover crops and grazing sheep on the
remaining portion as he primes it to qualify
as organic. Blue House also grows on
another 30 acres in Pescadero.
We have worked with Ryan [Casey] since

he started his business 10 years ago on


POSTs Cloverdale Coastal Ranch property.
He had a deep commitment to creating a
thriving sustainable local food system and
is a leading voice among a growing number
of ecologically-minded farmers on the
coast, POST Director of Land Stewardship
Daniel Olstein said in a press release. Ryan
shares our vision for the property to keep
the rich soils productive and robust natural
values protected.
The nonprofit announced it chose Blue
House Farm based on ecological, economic
and social factors. Aside from selling directly to the public at local markets, it also
hosts a Community Supported Agriculture

Farmers like Ryan care for the land in a
very unique and meaningful way. They tend
it for production potential, as well as the
beneficial role its natural resources play in

Its a difficult area to find access to land

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernicks refusal to stand during The Star-Spangled
Banner in protest against racial oppression and police brutality has brought to light deep
and sometimes surprising differences in the way Americans view the flag, the national anthem
and the pledge.

Diverse America divided on


flag, anthem, other symbols
By Janie Har and Russell Contreras
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO The oldest Latino


civil rights group in the United States opens
every meeting with the Pledge of
Allegiance, a tradition resulting from a long
fight to prove Hispanics belong in this
country.
In the San Francisco Bay Area, a white
father of two says he would never require his
young daughters to recite the pledge to show
their patriotism.
And in North Dakota, Native American
protesters whose ancestors were here long
before there was a United States waved
American flags as they fought a proposed
pipeline near sacred tribal land. Some
demonstrators flew the flag upside down as a
distress symbol.
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin
Kaepernicks refusal to stand during The
Star-Spangled Banner in protest against
racial oppression and police brutality has
brought to light deep and sometimes surprising differences in the way Americans
view the flag, the national anthem and the
pledge.
The symbols, people say, inspire skeptici sm and heart break, p ri de an d j o y,
sometimes all at once in the same person. Some minorities, in particular, have
conflicted feelings about symbols honoring a country that has not always treat-

ed all people equally.


The flag is important to us because we
have so many relatives in the military, said
Justin Poor Bear, a 38-year-old member of
the Oglala Lakota tribe from Allen, South
Dakota. There is also a lot of pain.
Following Kaepernicks example, pro
athletes and high school students across the
country are taking a knee or linking arms
during the national anthem before sporting
events.
The protests have raised questions of who
gets to be called a patriot.
Jason Pontius, a 46-year-old white resident of Alameda, California, said the U.S. of
all countries should realize that blind devotion is not the American way. Sometimes
when he drops off his second-grader at
school, he sticks around while she recites
the Pledge of Allegiance with her class. But
he doesnt join in.
What makes America great, he said, is
that people have always challenged the idea
of what America stands for.
Yet there are organizations that embrace
the flag precisely as a way to declare that
their members, too, are Americans.
The League of United Latin American
Citizens the nations oldest Latino civil
rights group, founded in Texas by World War
I veterans has historically opened all its
meetings with the pledge and a prayer similar to one George Washington is said to
have recited.

SACRAMENTO Gov. Jerry Brown is


approving legislation that allows businesses to stock EpiPens used to treat people having life-threatening allergic reactions.
The Democratic governor signed AB1386
Thursday and also condemned the EpiPen
manufacturer Mylan for significantly raising
the price while sponsoring the California
legislation and similar measures around the
country.
Brown says in a letter to lawmakers that he
signed the bill because it has the potential to
save lives. He says state government cant
prevent the price hikes but can shed light
on such rapacious corporate behavior.
The price for a two-pack of EpiPens has
grown to $608, an increase of more than 500
percent since 2007.
Mylan has responded to a public outcry
over its pricing by announcing it will launch
a generic version that will cost $300.

Feds end investigation after


convicting congressmans father
SACRAMENTO Federal prosecutors on
Friday took the rare step of announcing they
will seek no further charges after convicting
the father of a congressman of illegally funneling nearly $270,000 in contributions to
his sons campaigns.
The announcement by the U.S. Attorneys
Office in Sacramento is good news for
Democratic U.S. Rep. Ami Bera of Elk
Grove, who is facing a tough re-election

campaign against Republican Sacramento


County Sheriff Scott Jones.
Bera was not charged and has denied knowing about his fathers activities. Prosecutors
said they have found no evidence that he was
involved, but until Friday had said their
investigation was continuing.
After conducting an exhaustive investigation, this case was closed after the US
Attorney stated that my campaign and I had
been fully cooperative and that neither I nor
my staff were targets of this investigation,
Bera said in a statement.

WASHINGTON The Associated Press

about the mysterious transaction that cut

Michelle Obama makes campaign


trail debut for Clinton in Virginia
By Julie Pace
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

FAIRFAX, Va. Stepping


deeper into the political fray,
Michelle Obama on Friday warned
young voters against being tired
or turned off in the 2016 election. She urged them to rally
behind Hillary Clinton, particularly given the alternative.
Mrs. Obama is emerging as one
of Clintons most effective advocates, especially with voters who
backed President Barack Obama
but are less enthusiastic about his
potential Democratic successor.
The Clinton teams biggest challenge regarding Mrs. Obama is
getting the reluctant campaigner
to commit to more events.
Fridays rally in Virginia was
Mrs. Obamas first solo campaign event for Clinton and
comes nearly two months after
her star turn at the Democratic
convention. Speaking to mostly
students at George Mason
University, she repeatedly jabbed
Trump without mentioning him
by name, declaring that being
president isnt anything like
reality TV.
The first lady pointedly called

out those who


continue
to
question
the
presidents citizenship up to
this very day.
Drawing on a
frequently quoted line from her
Hillary Clinton c o n v e n t i o n
speech, Mrs.
Obama said her husband had
responded to those questions by
going high when they go low.
Hours earlier, Trump stated for
the first time that the president
was born in the United States,
though he did not apologize for
devoting years to promoting
false allegations that Obama was
not an American citizen.
Beyond her ability to take on
Trump with a smile, Mrs.
Obamas real value to Clinton is
her wild popularity
with
Democratic voters, particularly
young people and blacks. She
vouched repeatedly for Clintons
resume and character, urging voters motivated by her husbands
history-making campaigns to
feel the same way about the first
woman nominated for president
by a major U.S. party.

Hillary Clinton aides want Michelle Obama in battleground states as much as possible between now and Election
Day. Fridays rally in northern Virginia, less than an hour drive from the White House, is the only event shes publicly
committed to, though the Clinton campaign expects her to make additional appearances.

Trump adjusts call for Clinton bodyguards to lose their guns


By Jonathan Lemire
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

REUTERS

Donald Trump speaks to the Economic Club of New York.

MIAMI Donald Trump made


his usual sarcastic call Friday for
Hillary Clintons Secret Service
agents to be stripped of their
firearms and then added, lets
see what happens to her.
Trump has long incorrectly suggested his Democratic opponent
wants to overturn the Second
Amendment and take away
Americans right to own guns. At
a rally in Miami, he again riffed
about confiscating the agents
guns and then went further.
I think that her bodyguards

should drop all weapons. They


should disarm, right? Trump
asked the crowd. Take their guns
away, she doesnt want guns. Take
their and lets see what happens to her. Take their guns away.
OK, it would be very dangerous.
Trumps meaning was not
immediately clear and a campaign
spokeswoman did not immediately respond to a request for an elaboration.
But the Clinton campaign had a
quick
reaction.
Spokesman
Robby Mook released a statement
Friday night saying Trump has a
pattern of inciting people to violence. Whether this is done to
provoke protesters at a rally or

casually or even as a joke, it is an


unacceptable quality in anyone
seeking the job of Commander in
Chief.
This kind of talk should be out
of bounds for a presidential candidate, Mook wrote.
A spokeswoman for the Secret
Service declined to comment.
The seemingly ominous comment evoked a remark Trump made
last month that many Democrats
condemned as a call for Clintons
assassination. Speaking at a rally
in North Carolina, the Republican
nominee erroneously said his
opponent wants to abolish,
essentially,
the
Second
Amendment.

Leaders look at six months of rebuilding EU dream


By Raf Casert and George Jahn
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BRATISLAVA, Slovakia Bruised and


split but refusing to be beaten by Britains
planned exit, European Union leaders on
Friday gave themselves one long winter to
prepare a fundamental reset of the bloc to
try to stave off increasing discontent and
offer solutions for the multiple crises it
faces.
The leaders, 28 minus British Prime
Minister Theresa May, committed to have a
clear roadmap of the way ahead and some
practical results when they meet in late
March to mark the 60th anniversary of the
EU founding Treaty of Rome in the Italian
capital.
Europe can, must move forward as long
as it has clear priorities: protection, security, prosperity and the future of the youth,
said French president Francois Hollande in
a joint press conference with German
Chancellor Angela Merkel.

Still, not all were in agreement. Italian


Prime Minister Matteo Renzi left the summit dissatisfied, insisting not enough had
been achieved on migration. His Hungarian
counterpart Viktor Orban also voiced displeasure on the issue, highlighting how the
leaders still have a way to go in finding a
united front.
I do not have to play in a script to show
that we are united, Renzi said.
Merkel called the current situation in the
EU critical, and not only because Britain
voted in June to leave the bloc. The next
months would be decisive, she said.
She noted the migration crisis and economic problems that have fed growing disenchantment with the EU among many
member states. Still, she said there was a
common willingness to bounce back
beyond the many issues that divide and even
anger individual EU nations.

EU Council President Donald Tusk agreed,
calling the current mood in the EU sober European Council President Donald Tusk, left, and European Commission President Jean
but not defeatist.

Senator says Israel made a mistake by signing security deal


By Richard Lardner

Prosecutors: Murder
was for gang purposes
Two men charged with murder in connection with a fatal shooting in San Mateo
Sept. 6 had their charges amended Friday
because of gang affiliation, according to
prosecutors.
The special circumstance means the two
defendants could face life in prison without
parole or even the death penalty if convicted.
Alejandro DeLeon, 22, and Luis Mercado,
20, were in custody on $5 million bail but a
judge changed that to no bail Friday, according to prosecutors.

could have gotten a better deal if he had


waited until President Barack Obama left
office.
Graham said there is ample support in
Congress among Republicans and
Democrats for providing Israel with more
military aid. And a new U.S. president,
either Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump,
would be more generous too, he said on a
conference call arranged by the Jewish

Institute for National Security Affairs.


They left money on the table, Graham
said of Israel.
The security agreement, which begins in
the 2019 budget year, is set to last 10 years
and amounts to $3.8 billion annually. The
current deal expires in 2018 and gave Israel
$3.1 billion in military assistance each
year.
Graham,
who
chairs
a Senate

Appropriations
subcommittee,
said
Congress isnt a party to the agreement and
shouldnt be bound by the deal. He said he
intended to test in the coming weeks a provision that restricts lawmakers from providing for more money than the deal mandates by pushing for a supplemental budget
that would give Israel an additional $1.5
billion over what the administration has
proposed.

reportedly told the court. I have to live

She also said she prays for the victims

Campbell.
Wagstaffe said the victims family plans

prosecutors said had a 0.21 percent bloodalcohol content, more than twice the legal

THE TRUTH ABOUT "DISCOUNT" DENTAL IMPLANTS!

The old adage If it's too good to be true, it probably is applies to dentistry
too. When looking for tooth replacement options, do not fall victim to misleading marketing tactics. Do your research, ask the right questions, and know
what you are getting. Its a lifetime investment and shouldnt be taken lightly.
If you are researching dental implants you have seen the ads for $1895 complete
or $4000 OFF! Great deal right, NOT SO FAST chances are you are getting exactly
what you paid for, and not what an educated consumer would want! And it's not
being done by an Implant specialist ( there is no such designation sanctioned by
the dental board in California)!
Such special fees do not correlate with cost of highly trained professionals
and materials for a level of precision and quality that implant supported
crowns require. Here is the typical range costs to replace a single missing tooth:
Implant placement related costs to the dentist:
Dental Implant (reputable companies with well researched implants): $400 to $450
Healing abutment (a temporary extension that sits on the implant): $40 to $50
Surgical guide (a stent guiding accurate implant placement): $50 to $150
Drills (series of drills in various diameters necessary to prepare the bone for
implant placement): $50-$100.
Crown related costs to the dentist:
Impression post, Implant analog, Permanent abutment, abutment screw, Permanent Crown (made by a high quality USA lab ,Temporary Abutment, custom
Temporary Crown.
As you can see, these costs to the dentist amount to $1,360 - $1,950 just for the
cost of HIGH QUALITY materials. This does not include the impression
materials, accessory materials, advertising multiple appointments, personnel and
administrative costs, and a reasonable return to the dentist.
So just how does the discount implant center do it? Here is the catch: They
employ common "cutting corner" strategies to offer a low fee and still make
profit on this procedure.

Bottom line, don't look for the lowest price, but best long-term value!

Suspected arsonist who burned


9/11 memorial caught on video
Police are asking for the publics help to
identify a person who was caught on surveillance video Sunday afternoon in East
Palo Alto vandalizing a memorial dedicated
to the firefighters who died during the Sept.
11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
The memorial, which was set up outside
the Menlo Park Fire Protection Districts
Fire Station 2 at 2290 University Ave., was
vandalized on the 15th anniversary of the
attacks, according to fire officials.
Firefighters returning from an emergency
call discovered the memorial, which consisted of 343 small flags representing each
firefighter who died while in the line of duty
on Sept. 11, had been set on fire, fire officials said.
After reviewing surveillance video from
the area, a person was spotted setting fire to
the flags, around 1:40 p.m., according to
police.
After starting the fire, the suspect then
walked away, heading toward Runnymede
Street, police said.
The flags were being held in a flag tray,
which was built and paid for by the firefighters themselves. The memorial had
been a tradition within the fire district since
the first anniversary of the terrorist attacks
in New York, Washington, D. C. , and
Pennsylvania, according to fire officials.
The surveillance video can be seen at

Small plane makes


mysterious landing on Bayfront
Police are trying to determine why a small
plane landed in a marshy area along the San
Francisco Bay near East Palo Alto Friday
afternoon.
The plane, which came down at about
2:45 p.m.,was sitting upright on a spit of
land in a marshy area south of the
Ravenswood Open Space Preserve, according to East Palo Alto police Sgt. Angel
Sanchez.
A California Highway Patrol helicopter
landed next to the plane, which Sanchez
said appeared to hold two people who seem
to have escaped injury.
Emergency vehicles are attempting to
reach the plane, but the wild nature of the
coastline in that area is hindering efforts.

Driver killed by debris on 101


An elderly man was struck in the neck and
killed by an unidentified object while driving northbound on Highway 101 in Menlo
Park early Friday afternoon, according to
the California Highway Patrol.
Witnesses said the man, who appears to
be in his early 80s, was struck by the item
when it smashed through his windshield
near Willow Road at about 1 p.m., said CHP
Officer Art Montiel.
After being struck, the driver collided
with the center divide, eventually coming
to a stop. No other vehicles were involved
in the accident.

U.S. to Russia: Syria military


cooperation not guaranteed
By Matthew Lee
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The United States


warned Russia on Friday that potential
military cooperation envisioned by a
cease-fire deal in Syria will not happen
unless humanitarian aid begins to flow
into Aleppo and other besieged communities. The warning came as
President Barack Obamas top national
security aides continued to wrangle
over whether and how to cooperate
militarily with the Russians in the
event those conditions are met.
Secretary of State John Kerry told
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey
Lavrov in a telephone call that
Moscow must persuade the Syrian government to get the aid moving or a
joint facility to coordinate attacks on
extremist groups and share intelligence will not be set up, the State
Department said. Kerry called the
delays in assistance to Aleppo repeated and unacceptable and said Russia
must press Syrian President Bashar

The United States will not establish


the Joint Implementation Center with Russia unless and
until the agreed terms for humanitarian access are met.
State Department spokesman John Kirby

Assad to allow deliveries.


Kerry emphasized that the United
States expects Russia to use its influence on the Assad regime to allow U.N.
humanitarian convoys to reach Aleppo
and other areas in need, State
Department spokesman John Kirby
said. The secretary made clear that the
United States will not establish the
Joint Implementation Center with
Russia unless and until the agreed
terms for humanitarian access are
met.
The agreement that Kerry and Lavrov
reached last week calls for sustained
delivery of humanitarian aid, along
with a decrease in violence, as a
requirement for the military cooperation to target Islamic State and al-

Qaida-linked groups. The arrangements are very detailed on the mechanics of ending violence in Aleppo and
opening up a key artery to the city for
humanitarian deliveries. The agreement has not been made public but
officials familiar with it have told the
Associated Press it contains a highly
technical series of requirements for
both Assads government and opposition forces.
These include precise calculations,
in meters, on how the sides would pull
back from a key artery into Aleppo and
where they would have to redeploy
weaponry. A main focus is on ensuring
rapid, safe, unhindered and sustained
humanitarian access to all people in
need.

DENVER The bodies of two young Americans who died


fighting the Islamic State group in Syria were returned to
their sobbing families on Friday in simple, gray caskets
that were pulled from an Amtrak train in Denver as throngs
of sleepy passengers watched.
Relatives of Levi Shirley, 24, and Jordan MacTaggart,
22, huddled together against the morning chill as U.S. Rep.
Ed Perlmutter presented them with folded flags a sign of
respect for the men who never joined the U.S. military but
felt a need to serve.
The unceremonious homecoming at Union Station
marked the end of a long and complicated journey for the
men, who died separately in combat this summer after joining the Peoples Protection Units, the main Kurdish guerrilla group battling the Islamic State in Syria.
We waited for this day for nine weeks, Shirleys father,
Russell Shirley, told reporters gathered on the station platform. But the last thing I wanted to see was my son carried
off that train.
The body of another fighter, William Savage, 27, was
also returned to the U.S. and was being transported to North
Carolina, where his father lives.
The State Department said it worked to help return the
remains of the men to their families. But Turkeys tense
relationship with the Kurds and the U.S. since Julys failed
coup stalled the efforts.
The remains of Keith Broomfield of Massachusetts,
believed to be the first American to die alongside Kurds
fighting Islamic State, were returned to the U.S. through
Turkey last year.
But officials determined it would be too dangerous to repatriate the bodies of Shirley, MacTaggart and Savage through
Turkey and instead shipped them hundreds of miles east to
Iraq.

Brazilian prosecutors charge


eight with promotion of terrorism
RIO DE JANEIRO Brazilian federal prosecutors have
charged eight people with allegedly recruiting for and promoting terrorist organizations before the Rio de Janeiro
Olympic Games.
They are among several people arrested two weeks before
the event in August. Police accused them of pledging allegiance to the self-declared Islamic State on social media and
of discussing using weapons and guerrilla tactics to potentially attack during the Olympics. Police said one had tried
to buy an AK-47 assault rifle.
At the time of the arrests, Justice Minister Alexandre de
Moraes said the 10 suspects initially detained were ill-prepared amateurs.
The Associated Press was unable to locate attorneys for
the men and it is not clear if they have entered pleas.

Stocks decline, hurt by declines in banks

NEW YORK Stocks were moderately lower Friday, pushed down,


in part, by the price of oil.
Investors continue to remain on
edge regarding the possibility of
the Federal Reserve raising interest rates at its meeting next week.
Banks also fell, led by a plunge
in Deutsche Bank after the giant
German lender said it wouldnt settle with the Department of Justice
over its handling of mortgage
securities in the run-up to the 2008

or 0.4 percent, to 2,139.16 and the
Nasdaq composite fell 5.12 points,
or 0.1 percent, to 5,244.57.
The U.S.-listed shares of
Deutsche Bank dropped $1.38, or

said it did not intend to pay the

U.S. government asked for.

Software co.: We warned Tesla


about hands-free Autopilot use

FAA contemplating whether


millions of drones will fill skies

By Tom Krisher
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DETROIT The company that


made the camera and computer system for Tesla Motors semiautonomous Autopilot says the
electric car maker ignored its
warnings of safety problems.
Israel-based Mobileye said
Friday that last year, prior to the
release of Autopilot, it warned
Tesla not to allow drivers to use
the system without their hands on
the steering wheel. The system
Tesla rolled out in the fall allows
drivers to remove their hands from
the wheel while the car takes control of steering and other functions.

Wall Street firms like Goldman


Sachs and JPMorgan Chase & Co.,
for its role in the mortgage bubble
and financial crisis.
Other European banks fell as
well. Royal Bank of Scotland
Group fell 30 cents, or 6 percent,
to $4.86.
The news out of Deutsche Bank
dragged European stocks lower,
wi t h German y s DAX cl o s i n g
do wn 1 . 5 p ercen t , Fran ces
CAC-40 index down 0. 9 percent
and the U. K. s FTSE 100 index

Mobileyes statement escalates


a public spat with Tesla and will
almost certainly draw the interest
of two federal agencies investigation the death of a driver while
using Autopilot in a May crash in
Florida. At issue is whether Tesla
rolled out the system before it was
ready, essentially allowing it to be
tested by owners. Mobileye
stopped supplying components to
Tesla a few weeks ago.
Mobileye, a huge player in an
auto industry that is moving
quickly toward autonomous cars,
makes software that takes data
from cameras and other sensors
and decides when the car should
take action such as applying the
brakes. But in the Florida crash,
Tesla said the cameras in the Tesla

Model S failed to spot a crossing


tractor-trailer due to bright sunlight.
The National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration, which
along
with
the
National
Transportation Safety Board is
investigating the crash that killed
former Navy Seal Joshua Brown,
would not comment.
Tesla said that Mobileyes statements are inaccurate and stem from
Teslas plans to develop its own
vision system. When Tesla refused
to stop development, Mobileye
stopped support on future work
and released public statements
implying that this discontinuance
was motived by safety concerns,
the Palo Alto-based Tesla said in a
statement.

In other company news, pharmaceutical


company
Novavax
plunged $7.05, or 85 percent, to
$1.29 after the company said its
experimental vaccine failed in
late-stage
clinical
testing.
Novavax has no active products on
the market and this drug was their
furthest in development.

WASHINGTON So many people are registering drones and


applying for drone pilot licenses
that federal aviation officials said
Friday they are contemplating the
possibility of millions of
unmanned aircraft crowding the
nations skies in the not-too-distant future.
In the nine months since the
Federal Aviation Administration
created a drone registration system, more than 550,000 unmanned
aircraft have been registered with
the agency, said Earl Lawrence,
director of the FAAs drone office.
Speaking at the first meeting of a
new government-industry drone
advisory committee, Lawrence said
new registrations are coming in at
a rate of 2,000 a day. By comparison, the FAA says there are
260,165 manned aircraft registered
in the U.S.

Intel rose $1.11, or 3 percent, to


$37.67 after the company raised
its revenue forecasts, citing
stronger-than-expected demand for
personal computers.
The S&P 500 is adding a new
industry to its traditional groups
for the first time since the dotcom
era. The benchmark stock index
will now have a real estate sector,
which will be split off from the
financial services component. The
new industry component will be
effective at the end of trading
Friday. After the split, the S&P
500 will have 11 industry sectors.
The 10 current sectors of the
S&P 500 are: financial services,
information technology, energy,
industrials, consumer discretionary companies, materials,
telecommunications, consumer
staples, health care and utilities.
Benchmark U.S. crude lost 88

international oils, fell 82 cents to

Woodside stays hot

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The Woodside football team had more than


enough offense to blow past visiting
Christopher 39-9 in Redwood City Friday
night.
But it was the Wildcats defense that was
the star of the show. It held the Cougars to
just 217 yards of offense and forced four
Christopher turnovers including a picksix from linebacker Taatia Lesuii late in
the game.
But the eye-opening stat was 10 as in
the number of sacks the Wildcats recorded.
Part of the game plan was to come out
aggressive, said Woodside coach Justin
Andrews. I think our defensive line is good
enough to generate pressure on their own,
but then you throw in our linebackers
Theyre offensive line was completely overwhelmed.
Xavier Cruz led the assault with 2 1/2 half
sacks, while Segio Lopez had a pair of sacks
and an interception. PK Ahonima,
Guillermo Adame, Christian Ochoa, Chris
Brugger, and Lesui each had one. Weston
Bourgeois added half a sack as well.
The three Woodside sacks in the first half
would have been satisfying enough, but the
Wildcats, who were up 20-0 at halftime,
pinned their ears back in the second half and
came up with seven more. During
Christophers first drive of the third quarter,
Woodside sacked Christopher quarterback
Ryan Adamkiewiez three times in four plays.
Its a good thing the Woodside defense was
on point because the offense, despite scoring five touchdowns on offense, had trouble
getting into a rhythm. The Wildcats turned
the ball over twice in the first half and had
only 130 yards of offense, but still managed
to score three touchdowns, before adding
two more in the second. Eleven penalties for
70 yards also contributed to the offense
looking out of synch.

wild finish

Menlo-Atherton does have other weapons


besides the Peninsula Athletic League Bay
Divisions leading rusher Jordan Mims.
Not that Mims didnt turn in another electric performance in Fridays down-to-thewire 35-28 win at home over Los Gatos. The
senior tailback eclipsed the 200-yard
plateau for the second straight week, legging for 207 yards on 24 carries and two
touchdowns.
But when Mims got temporarily injured
midway through the fourth quarter by falling
on the ball at the end of a 16-yard run, the
Bears leading by a touchdown had to
turn to their powerful two-way backer,
Stavro Papadakis, to save the day in a wild
back-and-forth game that neither team
seemed to want to take control of.
It was like they were doing everything
they can do to give the game to us, and we
were trying to give it to them, M-A head
coach Adhir Ravipati said.
M-As rabidly blitzing middle linebacker
didnt get the memo though. While
Papadakis wasnt able to put the game away
on offense after Mims injury he got
stopped for a pair of short gains before M-A
turned the ball over on downs at midfield
two plays later but the 5-11, 215-pound
senior found a way to get it done on defense
on two ensuing Los Gatos possessions.
First and foremost, Papadakis consistently pressured Los Gatos quarterback Kyle
Reid who finished 17-of-33 passing for
271 yards, including 193 in the second half
to keep the Wildcats air attack in check.
Then Papadakis came up with a big stop in
the closing seconds inside the M-A 5-yard
line to help preserve the win.
The key for the Bears defense was keeping
the pressure on Reid. Earlier in the second
half, with Los Gatos starting a drive from its

Lucroy gives Rangers


walk-off win over As
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ARLINGTON, Texas Jonathan Lucroys two-run single


with two outs in the ninth inning gave the Texas Rangers a 76 victory over the Oakland Athletics on Friday night.
The Rangers reduced their magic number for clinching the
AL West to seven. Pending the Mariners late game against
Houston, Texas needed a combination of seven wins or
Seattle losses to guarantee first place.
Lucroy hit a ground ball inside third base to drive in pinchrunners Delino DeShields and Joey Gallo, who had stolen second base when Rougned Odor struck out. Carlos Beltrans
one-out double began the winning rally.
Ryan Madson (5-6) had his seven blown save in 37
chances.
Sam Dyson (2-2), the Rangers fourth pitcher, got the win.
Oakland built a 6-2 lead against Texas starter Cole Hamels
on home runs by Khris Davis and Brett Eibner, who drove in
four runs.
Davis homer was his 38th of the season, his eighth in 14
games against Texas and his third against Hamels in only
seven at-bats.
Texas came back with two runs in the sixth on Adrian
Beltres double and a run-scoring single by Mitch Moreland.
Carlos Gomez led off the seventh with a homer.
Eibners sixth homer came with two outs in the sixth.
After Davis homer in the fourth, Ryon Healy hit his second
double of the game and scored on Eibners two-out single.

Giants down Cardinals again

SAN FRANCISCO All that talk about Buster Poseys


second-half power drought was answered with one mighty
swing in a September game that mattered, and his two-run
homer helped the San Francisco Giants beat the St. Louis
Cardinals 8-2 Friday night in a matchup of playoff contenders.
Posey drove in four runs and the Giants stayed four games
back of the NL West-leading Los Angeles Dodgers, who won
at Arizona. San Francisco maintained its one-game lead
over the New York Mets for the leagues top wild card, moving three games up on the Cardinals in the wild-card standings.
Left-hander Matt Moore (4-4) allowed two runs over five
innings, struck out four and walked three while facing the
Cardinals for the first time in his career. He won for the
fourth time over five starts in his ninth outing since joining San Francisco in a trade with Tampa Bay.
Posey was all smiles in the dugout after his fourth-inning
drive, his first home run in 185 at-bats and exactly two
months he last connected on July 16 at San Diego. He
also had a two-run single and followed up his four-hit game
Thursday night with three more.
Brandon Belt hit a two-run double to highlight San
Franciscos six-run third. Posey singled in a pair of runs
that inning, when all the runs were unearned off rookie
right-hander Luke Weaver (1-3).

CHICAGO David Ross was on his way home when the


Chicago Cubs clinched the NL Central, so he ducked into a
bar on Sheffield Avenue for a drink. Ross, who plans to retire
after this year, wanted to celebrate his last division title.
The bartender recognized the backup catcher and bought
him a shot of Jameson. The party is definitely on in
Chicago.
Ross and his teammates returned to Wrigley Field on
Friday for the first time since St. Louis lost at San Francisco
late Thursday, handing the NL Central over to the Cubs for
the first time since 2008. The Cubs wasted a chance to clinch
the division in front of their fans when they lost 5-4 to the
Milwaukee Brewers, but they planned to celebrate after the
second game of the series.
Youd rather celebrate on the field and all that, but it doesnt really matter, Ross said. The key is getting in. You
know, this is one of our goals and steps to a bigger goal and
so, hopefully theres a lot more partying to go on, especially here at Wrigley. But were going to enjoy this and well
enjoy ourselves tonight. Dont worry about that.
The division had seemed like a foregone conclusion since
Chicago got off to a 25-6 start, serving notice that all the
preseason hype was justified. Led by MVP candidates Kris
Bryant and Anthony Rizzo and a ridiculously deep pitching
staff, the Cubs began the day with the best record in baseball

A couple days off the field will serve them well, Bochy
said.
It proved the right call again. After a demoralizing threegame sweep by San Diego earlier this week, San Francisco
suddenly looks like a playoff team again. The Giants have

decade: 2010, 12 and 14.
Weavers night was done after 2 2/3 innings and he is

Cubs celebrate first NL Central title in 8 years


By Jay Cohen

COYOTE POINT

THE DAILY JOURNAL

World Series in 1908, a drought the Cubs hope to end this


year. But in the meantime, they werent taking the NL
Central title for granted.
Winning your division, thats a highlight, manager Joe
Maddon said. Its always a highlight. Being able to avoid a
wild-card game ... you really want to avoid that if you possibly can.
Chicago beat Pittsburgh in the wild-card game a year ago,
and then eliminated St. Louis before it was swept by the New
York Mets in the NL Championship Series. The Cubs had to
wait until Sept. 25 to clinch their 2015 postseason spot,
and that also was via a loss by another contender.
This time around, Chicago is into the playoffs with a couple weeks to spare. It is still hoping for home-field advantage throughout the NL postseason, but clinching the division so early gives Maddon plenty of time to rest some regulars and take care of his pitching staff.
Now we have this opportunity to plan it out, slowly, really try to make some intelligent decisions while were still
playing the same game with the same kind of intensity,
Maddon said. Thats what were looking for.
Most of Chicagos regulars were out of the lineup for the
Friday afternoon start, and Maddon said he planned to wait
until Saturday for more in-depth discussions with his coaching staff about their plans for the rest of the regular season.
For now, the Cubs were ready to party.
Its exciting, Ross said. Winning the division is pretty cool and you know a rare treat. I think weve seen this
coming for a while now, but its nice to have that finally in
the books.

Big test for 49ers defense


By Steve Reed
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHARLOTTE, N.C. Its time to find out if the San


Francisco defense is for real.
The 49ers dominated the Los Angeles Rams 28-0 on Monday
night, but handling Case Keenum is one
thing. Cam Newton is a completely different beast.
Carolinas dual-threat quarterback figures
to be a better barometer for the 49ers,
wholl travel cross-country to face a
Panthers team that averaged more than 31
points per game last season and finished
10-0 at home, including two playoff wins.
Stopping Superman has been on Chip
Cam Newton Kellys mind all week.
The first-year 49ers coach expressed surprise Newton ran 11 times against the Broncos, and said he
amped-up preparation for the games toughest running quarterback because of that.
Cam is unlike any other quarterback in the league, Kelly
said. Hes a second running back back there. You know and the
size of him, its like Eddie George that can throw. You know,
its a tough task for any defense.
Defending the Panthers (0-1) is even tougher now that wide
receiver Kelvin Benjamin is back.
The 6-foot-5, 250-pound receiver has already re-established

himself as Newtons favorite target. He was thrown to 12 times


against the Broncos and finished with six catches for 91 yards
and a touchdown.
Newton said now he needs to find ways to get wide receivers
Ted Ginn Jr., Devin Funchess and Philly Brown more touches.
We have to do it, but not force it, Newton said. When we
do that, thats when we become dangerous. When you look
back at our run last year (to the Super Bowl) what made us so
dangerous is defenses didnt know where the ball was going.
We have to get back to that.

Favorite target
Just two weeks after being acquired from Detroit in a trade,
receiver Jeremy Kerley quickly established himself as Blaine
Gabberts favorite target in San Francisco. Gabbert threw 11
passes to Kerley in the opener, completing seven for 61 yards.
Kerley operated mostly out of the slot.
Hes savvy, and I dont use that term very lightly because
theres a lot of things that go into being a savvy football player, Gabbert said.

Keep him clean


After not being sacked at all in the preseason, Gabbert was
not brought down once in the opener despite playing a Rams
team that features one of the leagues top defensive lines.
Gabbert got rid of the ball extremely fast, holding the ball on
average for less time than all but one quarterback in Week 1,
according to Pro Football Focus.

Goff wasnt in uniform for the Rams 28-0 loss at San

Keenum is still the starter, but Fisher said the team is confident Goff would be ready to play if needed.
Goff went 22 for 49 with two touchdown passes and two

Raiders O-line on the mend


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALAMEDA The Raiders are likely to be without starting


right tackle Menelik Watson and a key backup for their home
opener.
Watson missed practice Friday because of a groin injury suffered early in Oaklands opening week win over New Orleans.
Matt McCants, who replaced Watson
briefly, went down with a knee injury and
has been sidelined since.
Both linemen are listed as doubtful on the
Raiders injury report.
Austin Howard, who was inactive against
the Saints with an ankle injury suffered in
the Raiders final preseason game, is
expected to start in place of Watson.
Howard started 13 games at right tackle in
2015 after playing right guard the previous
Menelik
season.
Watson
Hes ready to go, Raiders coach Jack
Del Rio said.
The Raiders season-opening win took its toll on the offensive line.
Watson and McCants injuries set off a domino effect that
wound up with Donald Penn moving from left tackle to right
guard, left guard Kelechi Osemele moving to left tackle and Jon
Feliciano coming off the bench to plug the gap at left guard.
Center Rodney Hudson and right guard Gabe Jackson also

missed time this week with knee injuries but both made it
through two consecutive days of practice and are questionable
to play against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday.
Del Rio noted earlier this week that the situation in New
Orleans had gotten so dire that the Raiders were prepared to use
tight end Lee Smith if another injury to the front five had
occurred.
Oakland should be better prepared to handle things this
week. Seventh-round draft pick Vadal Alexander, who was also
inactive against the Saints, practiced at both guard and tackle
during the preseason and is an option should more injuries
occur.
Were ready to adjust as we need to, Del Rio said. Weve
got good depth, have a good coach working the group. Well be
ready to roll.
Despite all of the injuries and shuffling up front, Raiders
quarterback Derek Carr was not sacked and was hit only three
times when dropping back to pass.
Part of that was due to Penn and Osemele, who continued to
play well after changing positions.
Osemele, in particular, stood out and made a pivotal block
that helped spring rookie running back Jaylen Richard free on
his 75-yard touchdown. The 6-foot-5-inch, 330-pound was
Oaklands prized free agent addition in the offseason after signing a five-year contract for more than $58 million.
Hes a violent football player, Carr said. One of, if not
the most, violent football players Ive ever been around, seen,
played with, played against, all the above.

Riley, as is his wont, did a little bit of everything. He rushed for 145 yards and two touchdowns on 20 carries, he caught two passes for

Pac-12s new normal: USC looking to upset No. 7 Stanford


By Ralph D. Russo
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Stanford as


a comfortable favorite against
Southern California doesnt even
seem weird anymore. These days it
is more notable when the Trojans
beat the Cardinal than the other way
around.
No school has won more Pac-12
football championships than USC
(38, more than double second
place), but Stanford has won three
of the last four titles. Right now the

Cardinal are the conferences standard-bearer and the Trojans are trying to chase them down.
USC (1-1) enters Saturdays game
on the Farm as a nine-point underdog to the seventh-ranked Cardinal
(1-0), looking for an upset to lift
the program out of a malaise and
bring some positive feelings to a
team that has dealt with a ton of
negativity.
Stanford has stepped on USC during its climb to the top of the Pac12, using victories against the
Trojans to lay the foundation for

one of the best programs in the


country. It started in 2007 with a
startling upset of the Trojans as a
39-point underdog under Jim
Harbaugh. Stanford then ripped off
four straight victories against USC
from 2009-12.
Two talented teams who get after
it, with a lot of mutual respect,
Stanford coach David Shaw said.
Its an emotional game every
time.
USC seemed to have restored
order to the rivalry, which it leads
61-31-3 overall, with victories in

season. And judging by his two impressive
scores last week a 28-yard end-around rush
followed by a 28-yard reception with plenty of
yards after the catch the sophomore is fast
proving to be quicker and stronger than in his
breakout freshman campaign.
Thats determination, CSM head coach
Larry Owens said. He came into the year determined to play better. Those two plays he made,
hes probably a little stronger but hes also
more determined.
Hitting the weight room with abandon in the
offseason, Marshall was on a mission to
improve his leg strength and speed. Getting
overlooked by Division I programs out of high
school was a reality check, but not one he
accepted he had to live with in the long-term.
So, as his 2015 offensive counterpart quarterback Dru Brown transferred to the Division I
program at Hawaii following his freshman season, Marshall committed to making his return
to CSM for his sophomore season an auspicious
one.
Especially going into my sophomore year,
Marshall said. Coaches always tell me its
going to be tougher because of my size. So,
I had to come in and get stronger and faster. I had
to do everything to eliminate those excuses not
to get better.
The Bulldogs offense has undergone a transformation as well. CSM offensive coordinator
Bret Pollack instituted a pistol offense this
year, converting from the wing-T offense of seasons past. Marshall actually ran the offense as a
quarterback for two seasons at San Lorenzo

Marshall dives for a touchdown during a Week
1 loss to Modesto. Marshall went on to score two
TDs last week against Sierra.
High School.
With a majority of freshmen on the offensive
line, as well as more freshmen starters than
Owens said he has ever started a year with, the
young Bulldogs have been tasked with getting
up to speed with the new-look offense in a
hurry.
It didnt go well in Week 1, as the Bulldogs
committed four turnovers in their 37-27 loss to
Modesto Junior College. But they held on to the
ball last week, committing no turnovers
against Sierra.
We started off slow because the line
needs to get used to [the pistol] the quarterbacks and receivers also, Marshall said.
The No. 17-ranked Bulldogs will be
counting on Marshall for another big performance as they face their toughest test of
the year in No. 14-ranked Fresno City
College, who visits College Heights

Its not like they were just

they physically beat us, but in the
first game, if you look at the tape,
we were giving it to them as much
as they could handle.
True, but let that settle in. USC
was able to hang with Stanford.
USC is not that far behind Stanford.
This is the Pac-12s new normal.

havent met in five years, when the Rams


trounced the Bulldogs in the 2011 season opener 43-7.
Theyre one of the tougher opponents weve
faced, Marshall said. This is a game that is
going to set the record straight.
Both teams are 1-1, but each has gone about
its business in polar-opposite ways. The
Bulldogs have scored 96 points through their
first two games. The Rams, on the other hand,
will look to counter that with a defense that has
proven stingy, allowing just 32 points through
two games, including a 17-13 loss last week to
Santa Rosa Junior College.
Both teams victories have come against
Sierra. The Rams defeated the Wolverines 45-19
in the season opener, totaling four interceptions from four different receivers. The trend
reversed itself last week as Fresno City committed five turnovers, all interceptions.
Owens was upbeat after CSMs offense gained
557 total yards against Sierra last week. But he
also credited the special teams and defense for
having a hand in the offense establishing an
overpowering rhythm that saw them score on
seven consecutive possessions.
Any time you put up 60-something points,
youve got to be happy about that, Owens said.
Theyre (defense and special teams) putting the
team in position to score a lot of points.

NASCAR brief
Rain washes out Sprint Cup
qualifying for Chase opener
JOLIET, Ill. Qualifying for the Chase for
the NASCAR Sprint Cup playoff opener at
Chicagoland Speedway was canceled because
of rain Friday for the third consecutive year.
The lineup for Sundays 400-mile race will
be based on the playoff seeding, putting Kyle
Busch on the pole with Brad Keselowski joining him on the front row.

STUNT

identical to the model Knievel used for his
failed canyon attempt on Sept. 8, 1974.
Knievel landed at the bottom of the canyon
when his parachute prematurely deployed
partway across the canyon, but walked away
with only minor injuries. The spot where
Knievel jumped was
1,600 feet (488 meters)
wide.
Braun hoped his effort
would prove that Knievel
could have made it across
the canyon if his parachute had deployed at the
correct time.
Before the jump, the
Eddie Braun 54-year-old Braun said
he was optimistic he
would make it across the canyon.
I wouldnt be doing this if I thought it
couldnt be done, he said.
Still, he had prepared for the worst in the
days before the stunt, asking his young son
to one day walk his sisters down the aisle at
their wedding if Braun died in his attempt.
Months of testing was performed on the
rocket designed by Scott Truax, whose
father constructed the original X2
Skycycle for Knievel.
Truax followed his fathers blueprints

Denny Hamlin will start third, followed by


Kevin Harvick, Cal Edwards and Martin Truex
Jr. The 16 drivers who qualified for the 10-race
playoff will all start at the front of the field.
Busch is seeking his second straight Sprint
Cup title. Hell need to get past two elimination rounds to get into the group of four drivers eligible going into the last race Nov. 20 at
Homestead.
Rain started falling at midday and wiped out
the only Sprint Cup practice scheduled at the
1.5-mile asphalt oval before the evening qualifying. The weather later cleared and an hour

down to the last bolt and deviated only by
updating the parachute system.
Braun had trouble finding corporate sponsors for the stunt, and said he spent about
$1.5 million of his own money on the
jump.
He looked at the stunt as a way to pay
homage to Knievel, who inspired him to
become a stuntman.
I like to say Im not doing something
that Evel Knievel couldnt do, he told the
Idaho Statesman before making the jump.
Im simply finishing out his dream. How
many people get to finish the dream of their
hero?
Not all in the southern Idaho town of Twin
Falls have such fond memories of Knievel.
Many residents remember Knievels promise of a weeklong festival complete with
celebrities and a golf tournament.
Knievels attempt drew plenty of spectators, and the resultant partying, fighting
and mischief upset locals. The daredevil was
later accused of leaving town without paying debts to area businesses.
But the mystique of Knievels failed stunt
has lived on, with would-be daredevils
showing up every decade or so to propose
similar jumps. Knievels son Robbie visited Twin Falls in the 1990s and in 2010 to
float the idea of a possible jump, though it
never came to fruition.
Braun appears to have been the first to
actually try the stunt since Knievels
attempt.

own 20-yard line, M-A dropped into a prevent defense with little regard for blitzing
the QB. The resulting drive saw Los Gatos
march for an efficient 80-yard score for the
third time in the game.
But M-A (2-2 overall) knew from watching game film of Los Gatos previous
matchup with San Benito that the Wildcats
wing-T offense was prone to fits in the face
of an effective pass rush. So, after Los Gatos
closed the score to 35-28 on a 29-yard
touchdown strike from Reid to senior Caden
McCloughan, the Bears once again ramped
up the blitz.
Its hard for them to take pressure with
that wing-T, Papadakis said. [Reid] was
able to complete some passes, but we came
through when it counted.
After Los Gatos (1-3) took over at midfield, a pair of M-A penalties helped advance
the ball into the red zone. The Bears incurred
105 yards in penalties in the game, and the
worst of it was the two 15-yarders on the
Wildcats penultimate possession a sideline violation followed by a pass-interference call on fourth-and-20 on a ball wildly
overthrown.
But Papadakis answered the call, forcing
two hurried throws including on fourthand-5 from the 13 when Reid misfired into
traffic with good secondary defense from
Mims and senior safety Marquise Reid.
But then disaster struck on M-As following possession. The Bears couldnt move
the ball out Los Gatos territory, with Mims
just missing a first down after runs of 2, 4
and 3 yards. So, with the Bears forced to
punt, a botched snap saw Los Gatos rusher
Luke Short recover a fumble at the M-A 3yard line with just over two minutes to play.
It isnt like our guys arent drilled in
that, Ravipati said. We just didnt execute.
Its frustrating.
After an apparent Los Gatos touchdown
got marched back for a chop block penalty
the Wildcats drew a flurry of yellow flags
as well with 100 yards in penalties Reid
made up for the miscue with a 24-yard pass
to Kale Tonges down to the 3-yard line.
Junior running back Will Fordyce 19 carries for 122 yards then moved the ball to
the 1. But on third down, Fordyce ran a
sweep that was met by Papadakis behind the
line of scrimmage for a 3-yard loss.
Then on fourth down with seconds to
play, Reid dropped back only to get dropped
by a gang of M-A rushers Dimitri
Sakalia, Epeli Mataele and Noa Ngalu.
Mims was the show throughout the first
half, scoring the first two M-A touchdowns
of the night. Los Gatos jumped out to a 7-0

lead on its first possession on a 10-play,
80-yard drive capped by a 9-yard run by
Fordyce. But M-A responded with a pair of
second-quarter scores on consecutive runs
by Mims; first he punched in a 5-yard draw,
then busted a draw play for a 50 yarder to
give the Bears a 14-7 advantage.
Los Gatos tied it just before the half, but
the other cogs in the M-A offensive
machine came to life in the second half.
M-A recovered a fumble at its own 41 to
set its first possession of the third quarter in
motion, capped four plays later by a 46-yard
scoring strike from quarterback Aajon
Johnson to receiver Mekhi Blackmon. Then
at the end of the third quarter, with M-A facing fourth-and-goal from the 2, Ravipati
decided to go for it, handing off to
Papadakis for an airborne dive into the end
zone to go up 28-14.
I told coach Id get it, Papadakis said.
Thankfully he trusted me and gave me the
ball.
It was a novel moment for Papadakis, who
said hes not normally known for his ups.
Los Gatos responded with an eight-play, 8yard scoring drive to close it to 28-21 on a
16-yard Reid-to-Ryan Wilcox connection,
but Papadakis blasted in M-As final score of
the night, which proved to be the difference,
capping a seven-play, 75-yard drive with a
2-yard score.

Underage
drinking
By Megan Tao

he stumbled into her first high


school party. She was nervous,
excited and above all else scared.
Her small talk skills were less than average and she had a knot in her stomach the
size of her fist.
One of her friends
offered her a drink and all
the bad statistics filled
up in her head, but her
better judgment was
overpowered by all the
cool kids in the movies,
the encouraging song
lyrics and her friends
who told her it would loosen up the noticeable tension in her shoulders.
She took the drink and downed it.
This scenario has happened one too
many times and peer pressure is not the
only factor thats causing it.
According to Drink Aware, one of the
main reasons that teenagers drink is
because they are constantly seeing people
drinking on social media.
Social media has had a profound effect on
the way teenagers communicate and express
their opinions. However, instead of utilizing the media to spread awareness of the
dangers of underage drug and alcohol use,
the media is promoting it.
Movies such as Neighbors that star
popular actors like Zac Efron and Dave
Franco influence teenagers that partying,
drinking and drugs are all there is to life.
The cycle continues with teenagers posting
pictures on social media of themselves living out their lives mimicking such movies.
Thus, the peer pressure is no longer directly from one teenager to another but delivered through pictures and videos on social
media.
Peer pressure still exists, but the root of
it has changed. Instead of the pressure to
dress a certain way or be on the varsity
football team, fitting in now means going
beyond the law. A risky price, and there are
many out there all too willing to pay it.

CORRIDOR

Whatever is chosen, the countys bus agency


is looking to partner with local employers,
stakeholders and neighboring jurisdictions.

Continued from page 1

A new east-west rail

East Palo Alto to Newark, is considering how


to ease congestion as part of the Dumbarton
Transportation Corridor Study. Funded by a
$1 million donation from Facebook, the
local bus agency is looking at how to
improve multi-modal options between the
Peninsula and the East Bay.
The study spans SamTrans currently
unused right-of-way, as well as the Highway
84 main vehicle bridge immediately to the
north and where officials want to consider
means to promote mass transit or carpooling.
Officials hosted two community forums
last week to discuss the possibilities that
range from collaborating with Caltrans to
consider creating an express lane along the
car bridge to rehabilitating and reinstating
train service on the rail bridge.
Weve got four goals, said Melissa
Reggiardo, SamTrans project manager for
the study. The first is to enhance mobility,
the second is to pursue cost effective
improvements that have the potential to
generate revenue, the third is to reduce financial and environmental risk while maximizing safety, and our fourth goal is to ensure
that there are not adverse impacts to the local
communities.
Cost estimates as well as a more thorough
engineering analysis are expected to be
released around mid-2017. SamTrans doesnt
yet have any funding for improvements and
outdated 2010 estimates to repair the damaged rail bridge alone ranged from $600 million to $800 million.
SamTrans is also looking at shorter term
and less costly improvements, such as creating a bike path leading to the vehicle bridge.

Rehabilitating the rail bridge would be a


massive and costly undertaking, requiring a
variety of environmental permitting. Its not
yet clear whether parts of the bridge are salvageable, particularly as a portion burned
down years ago. However, the regions transportation crunch has prompted SamTrans to
reinitiate a study that was shelved due to a
lack of financing several years ago.
Now, experts will consider what it would
take to rehabilitate it for use by either bus or
train. If rail service is reinstated, it would
likely either be a shuttle rail which would
run from the Union City Bay Area Rapid
Transit Station to the Redwood City Caltrain
Station or a commuter rail which would connect to the East Bay BART station but also
head north or south along Caltrains
Peninsula tracks.
The commuter rail option is operationally
more challenging, as it must align with not
only Caltrain service, but also potentially
high-speed rail, Reggiardo said.
With the bridge already in place albeit
not seismically safe and needing extensive
repairs Reggiardo and SamTrans Director
of Planning Doug Kim said some believe rail
service is still the best option.
Eventually, with all of the growth happening in the Bay Area, rail is the ultimate
solution; youve already got the tracks out
there, Kim said, noting theyre trying to
remain sensitive to communities that fear the
additional service could increase housing
demands around the corridor.
With Caltrain immersed in its $2 billion
electrification project, Kim noted SamTrans
has taken charge of the study.
New train stations as well as parking facil-

Commercials from The Real Cost have


been circulating the past couple of years
trying to raise awareness and stop smoking. Although these commercials effectively highlight the dangers of smoking, its
geared to all ages. Also, this is one of the
only examples that uses the power of the
media to spread awareness of the dangers of
drugs.
Most people dont see underage drinking
as a big problem because of the sensitivity
of discussing it.
The easy answer is that law should be
enough. That answer is also an issue

Continued from page 18


The media doesnt only make underage
drinking and drug use look cool, it makes
it socially acceptable. The bigger issue
with social media is not that its promoting underage drinking and drug use, but that
its not using the powerful influence it has
in our society to combat an issue that most
people dont see as dangerous.

ities would likely be required, which could


necessitate new right-of-way acquisition,
Kim said.
It would also require extensive environmental permitting which can be a lengthy
process and will likely be the most expensive of the various improvements being studied.

Highway bridge
As part of the expanded corridor study,
SamTrans is also looking at the six-lane
vehicle bridge. Another option, which must
be coordinated with Caltrans, is to convert
an existing lane of traffic and create an
express or bus lane. Express lanes, which are
also being considered along Highway 101,
can be controversial. However, Kim emphasized it can be a helpful tool to reducing solo
drivers.
Were not trying to widen the bridge,
because more capacity for people driving
alone is just a losing game, we know that.
What were going to do is take some of the
lanes in each direction, and actually create
fewer lanes for single-occupancy drivers and
give an advantage for people who carpool or
use the bus, Kim said. We know that can be
tricky and controversial, but we want to do
the opposite of what people have done in the
past, which is make things wider for more
cars.
The three managed lane options include
bus rapid transit, or a lane dedicated to the
bus; express lane open to commuters or
those willing to pay a toll; and a traditional
carpool lane, Reggiardo said.
Another key component of the study related to the highway bridge is considering
improvements to the entrances and exits on
either side. Typically, the traffic flows more
freely on the bridge but bottlenecks at the
approaches, Reggiardo said.
Kim agreed, pointing to areas such as the
because people actually believe the law is
enough.
Drinking, when done responsibly by a
person over the age of 21, cant really be
deemed as dangerous; therefore, people
dont address it as a serious problem within
our nation. However, all underage drinking
is not responsible because it is, in fact,
breaking the law. Even if youre at home or
in a safe environment with people you
trust, drinking at an early age sets people
up for a higher chance of having drinking
problems when theyre older.

intersection of Highway 101 and State Route
92, where drivers heading onto the bridge
typically overflow onto the main highway.
A third component of the study is to consider creating a bike and pedestrian path
along SamTrans right-of-way where the railroad tracks continue onto land at either end.
The bridge varies greatly in width, up to 100
feet at portions on land and as narrow as
about 17 feet along areas of the bridge itself.
With a bike path already on the highway
bridge, its unlikely the rail bridge would be
adapted for pedestrian or bicyclist use, said
Reggiardo and Kim.

Collaborating on congestion relief


The study entails coordinating with three
counties, multiple transit agencies, stakeholders and the community. Still in the preliminary study phase, perhaps one of the
largest hurdles is financing a potentially
more than $1 billion transportation project.
Financing the study likely wouldnt have
been possible had Facebook not committed
to funding the entire $1 million price tag.
Knowing that traffic is tied to jobs and
population, neither of which are likely to
subside in the Bay Area, SamTrans is hopeful
to continue engaging the private sector.
This study touches three counties, so the
big challenge here is getting everybody on
the same page; because its going to take a
massive amount of support, politically and
financially. Theres really no public money
available to fund any of this. So were making a big effort to talk to the private sector,
Kim said.
It wouldnt be the first time in recent history that the private sector contributed to
addressing transportation issues. A group of
Peninsula businesses has also been credited
with offering up $3 million to help fund a
study to consider express lanes along San
Mateo Countys portion of Highway 101.
but she remembered all the commercials
that warned her against it and the Buzzfeed
video with the fun infographics about the
not-so-fun dangers of underage drinking.
She declined the drink, and the tension
eased out of her shoulders.
I like that scenario much better and the
only way we can make it happen is to use
the force that is causing it.

Bridget Joness Baby is a charming return to form


By Lindsey Bahr
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Renee Zellweger is charming as ever in


Bridget Joness Baby, a lively return to
form for the unlikely trilogy about an ordinary woman and her professional and
romantic woes. It turns out a little break is
just what this series needed to find its footing after the manic missteps of Bridget
Jones: The Edge of Reason, which fell into
some of the all too common traps of sequels
looking to up the stakes (hello, Thailand
prison sequence).
Thats likely due to the fact that Sharon
Maguire, who directed the practically perfect Bridget Joness Diary, is back
(Beeban Kidron directed the second), working from a script from author Helen
Fielding, Emma Thompson (very funny as
an unamused doctor) and Dan Mazer.
Lets get over the silly fact that this
movie essentially had to press reboot on
the happy ending of the second, when
Bridget said at the end how even at 33 she
was able to find love and happiness with
one Mark Darcy (Colin Firth). Cut to 12
years later (between movies), Bridget is in
her 40s and Mark Darcy has gone off and
married someone else.
But this is an evolved Bridget.
Sure, she might be eating dessert alone in
that same old London flat on that same old
couch listening to the same old Celine Dion
song, but its not tragic. It just is. Her
friends all flaked on her and so she has a
night by herself. The sense is whatever
not woe is me.
Indeed, her life looks pretty good. Shes
now a high-profile TV news producer who
seems happy at work gone are the fire-

Though the premise of Bridget Joness Baby makes it all seem like its all about the guy again,
its never felt so much like Bridgets story.
mans pole humiliations of on-camera life.
Shes also fitter (and quite happy about it)
and has gotten a fancier wardrobe befitting

Miranda (a terrific Sarah Solemani) invites
her to a weekend getaway, Bridget arrives at

Edward Albee was proclaimed the playwright of his generation after his blistering Whos
Afraid of Virginia Woolf? opened on Broadway in 1962.

Virginia Woolf playwright


Edward Albee dies at age 88
By Mark Kennedy
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Three-time Pulitzer Prizewinning playwright Edward Albee, who


challenged theatrical convention in masterworks such as Whos Afraid of Virginia
Woolf? and A Delicate Balance, died
Friday, his personal assistant said. He was
88.
He died at his home in Montauk, east of
New York, assistant Jackob Holder said. No
cause of death was immediately given,
although he had suffered from diabetes.
With the deaths of Arthur Miller and August
Wilson in 2005, he was arguably Americas
greatest living playwright.
Several years ago, before undergoing
extensive surgery, Albee penned the following note to be issued at the time of his
death: To all of you who have made my
being alive so wonderful, so exciting and
so full, my thanks and all my love.
Albee was proclaimed the playwright of
his generation after his blistering Whos
Afraid of Virginia Woolf? opened on

Broadway in 1962. The Tony-winning


play, still widely considered Albees finest,
was made into an award-winning 1966 film
starring Elizabeth Taylor and Richard
Burton.
The plays sharp-tongued humor and dark
themes were the hallmarks of Albees style.
In more than 30 plays, Albee skewered such
mainstays of American culture as marriage,
child-rearing, religion and upper-class
comforts.
If you have no wounds, how can you
know youre alive? a character asks in
Albees 1996 The Play About the Baby.
Its just a quirk of the brain that makes
one a playwright, Albee said in 2008. I
have the same experiences that everybody
else does, but... I feel the need to translate
a lot of what happens to me, a lot of what I
think, into a play.
Albee challenged audiences to question
their assumptions about society and about
theater itself.
Plays are acts of protest meant to
change people, he once told The Star
Tribune of Minneapolis.

leading lady in cream and white. Of course,


she doesnt realize theyre going to an outdoor music festival. So, she falls in some
mud, but she also gets the attention of Jack
(Patrick Dempsey). Hes a single, not
sleazy relationship guru who is immediately smitten with Bridget.
She has a good time with Jack and goes

on her way. A few weeks later, she finds herself having an unexpectedly romantic night
with a now-separated Darcy. She walks away
from that, too, and continues on with life
until she gets the news that shes pregnant.
It could be either Darcys or Jacks.
Both men hop to the challenge, trying to
out-partner one another at every turn. Is this
a fantasy, or is this just men being kind to
the woman who is possibly carrying their
child? Does it really matter?
Much of the original cast is back and
wonderful (Jim Broadbent, Gemma Jones,
Sally Phillips and Shirley Henderson), save
for a sorely missed Daniel Cleaver (Hugh
Grant). Youll find out what happened to
him.
There is still a madcap, slapstick jitteriness to dear Bridget, but calmness has
emerged, too that of a woman who has
finally grown into her own skin. She is
messy in that way that women in other rom
coms say they are but never actually are.
And she is certainly not the other single gal
of her time, Carrie Bradshaw, who seemed to
become less and less relatable as the years
went by.
Though the premise of Bridget Joness
Baby makes it all seem like its all about
the guy again, its never felt so much like
Bridgets story. The man is just gravy. This
movie, for all its comedic ridiculousness
and wild circumstance of the paternity crisis, is a jubilant celebration of women.
If were lucky, well get to check in with
her again in another few years.
Bridget Joness Baby, a Universal
Pictures release, is rated R by the Motion
Picture Association of America for language, sex references and some nudity.
Running time: 122 minutes. Three stars out
of four.

Levitt, who plays the title character in
Snowden, out Friday. Its just a nightmare to do a living person.
And yet, somehow, Stone found himself
in Moscow with his longtime producing
partner, Moritz Borman, Snowden and
Snowdens Russian lawyer talking about
just that.
I was wary of the movie and (Snowden)
was wary of a movie, Stone said.
In fact, Stone was considering making
something entirely fictional. Snowdens
lawyer had written a Dostoyevskylike
novel inspired by the ordeal that was on the
table. Stone had also thought about a version where the character is chased in Russia,
like a Bourne Identity, something where
he goes back to hide in the U.S., or maybe
even a James Bond-type story.
The reality of course is much stiffer.
There are no guns, there are no chases,
theres no violence in the movie, and a typical coder at the NSA is not that interesting, Stone said.
He grappled with questions about how

brawn of Bourne or the style of Bond. But he
carries with him a moral certainty that, it
turns out, can do much more. Stones
Snowden seeks to frame its well-known
subject as a patriot, charting his journey
from unquestioning son of a proud military
family to brave practitioner of civil disobedience for a greater American good.
Its the kind of combination Stone and
Snowden that one might go into with
apprehension: Just what paranoid conspiracy theories is he going to throw at me THIS

opposed to a documentary.
Still, in the end, he decided to stay small,
and make a more realistic dramatic interpretation of Snowdens 10 year journey
from soldier to the man who leaked thousands of classified documents exposing the
governments mass surveillance of private
citizens. Snowden is also told in parallel
with that pivotal 2013 meeting in Hong
Kong with Glenn Greenwald, Ewan
MacAskill and documentarian Laura Poitras,
which was chronicled in the Oscar-winning
documentary Citizenfour.
Stone had enormous problems financing the movie. The major studios shied
away from it, and he had to cobble together
money from France and Germany. He also
got a lifeline from Open Road Films, the
independent company behind last years
best picture winner Spotlight.
The silver lining was that Stone had the
support of Snowden himself. That ended up
being pivotal to Gordon-Levitt, who took
on the challenge of disappearing into the
title role. Snowden is even out promoting
the film from his exile in Moscow.
I dont think anybody looks forward to
having a movie made about themselves,
particularly someone who is a privacy advocate, Snowden told an audience via live
Google Hangout in July, but said that there

was a kind of magic to the film and its


potential ability to reach a large audience
through storytelling. It was something
that made me really nervous but I think it
worked.
For Gordon-Levitt, the film gives the
Snowden story an emotional depth that he
believes can be particularly resonant to the
masses.
You understand why as a human being he
decided to do what he did. Thats really a
great entre into understanding what all is
going on, Gordon-Levitt said. Hopefully
it will inspire people to think about it
themselves.
Gordon-Levitt and Stone are in some ways
polar opposites Stone being the conspiracy theorist filmmaker of our time, and
Gordon-Levitt as the brainchild of the unwaveringly positive open source production
company HitRecord.
(Stone) points to the phone and says
this will be the end of us. Hes pretty pessimistic, said Gordon-Levitt.
Stone, separately, quipped back: Hes
younger.
Still, Gordon-Levitt recognizes Stones
unique drive to tackle subjects others might
think too nuclear.
Oliver is the only one who could have
made this movie, Gordon-Levitt said.

Hes the only filmmaker who is willing to


say I love my country but this thing that
the government is doing isnt right and we
should look at it. No one else does that as
pointedly and courageously as Oliver does.
Stone, who is turning 70 this week, is as
passionate as ever talking about the sins
and missteps of America, past and present,
and how it all relates to this moment. Hes
dismayed that neither presidential candidate
talks much, or at all, about mass surveillance, and worries that no one will be able
to trace the start of the next war. He even
doubts his own ability to change things
through his films anymore.
I really think that we have a limited run.
A book comes out, a movie comes out, people remember, it has impact, like JFK, but
time goes by and the establishment repeats,
repeats, repeats. Oswald did it. Oswald did
it. Whatever. Russia is our enemy, Stone
said.
And yet, as world-weary as Stone is, there
is still that subversive twinkle in his eye in
recalling a moment on the Snowden shoot
when he got to bring the exile (at least his
character) home.
We went to Washington, D.C., right to
the heart of the beast, and walked the Edward
Snowden character right past the White
House, back and forth, Stone said with a
big grin. It was amazing.

time? Theres something too on the nose


about the pairing.
But the surprise of Snowden is that
Stone, master of left-wing political
thrillers, plays it fairly straight.
Snowden isnt a liberal screed, or at least
not an overt one. Its a sincere, straightforward biopic that, at its worst, verges on
hagiography.
That Snowden is conventional neednt
be such a bad thing. Snowden, carried by
Gordon-Levitt, captures the rise of surveillance by viewing it through Snowdens initially innocent eyes.
Some, of course, would argue against presenting Snowden this way, at all. The
movie, perhaps ironically, isnt actually
tailored for the choir, but is designed to

inform about Snowden, himself, and the


intelligence community he was a part of.
Penned by Kieran Fitzgerald and Stone,
the film is organized as flashbacks of
Snowdens life, looking back from that
Hong Kong hotel room in 2013. The scenes
of the data leak meetings inevitably disappoint. Todays docudramas have it hard,
given how extensively many events are
captured and imprinted in our memories. But
Snowden has it harder since Poitras own
camera took us literally into that room,
resulting in the Oscar-winning documentary
Citizenfour.
Snowden has backstory on its side,
though, beginning with Snowdens military
training at Fort Bragg (cut short by injury)
and leading into his ascent at the CIA.
Whats your sin of choice? hes asked.
Computers, he replies.
Hes taken under the wing of a hardnosed,
all-seeing boss (an excellent Rhys Ifans)
and is inspired by the more cynical musings
of a CIA teacher hidden away in a basement
(Nic Cage, perfect). Snowden begins to
notice that getting ahead at the CIA is not
necessarily connected with abiding by the
rules.

And as he jumps from job to job, Snowden


also sees a wider war covertly gathering.
Even while whats referred to as a shortterm war in Iraq is raging, attention is
fixed on a below-the-surface intelligence
battle with China and Russia. As the size of
the NSA dragnet, not just abroad but at
home, comes into focus, Snowdens concern grows and becomes personal. Soon
hes taping over the laptop camera of his
girlfriend (Shailene Woodley). She says she
can see his inner liberal growing.
There are exaggerations and composites
here that may have diluted away from a more
interesting reality, one populated less by
stock spy-thriller caricatures. But most of
our spy movies now trade heavily off of
Snowdens revelations and the threat of
governmental surveillance; the recent
Jason Bourne was set specifically in a
post-Snowden world.
It seems only fair Snowden should get his
own close-up, too.
Snowden, an Open Road Films release,
is rated R by the Motion Picture Association
of America for language and some sexuality/nudity. Running time: 134 minutes.
Two and a half stars out of four.

This time, our heroes are joined by some
locals (Wes Robinson and Valorie Curry)
who know the woods but may have their
own agenda and writer Simon Barrett has
weaved in a sly lesson about our confidence
in high-tech gizmos. The group seems
invincible with their GPS, digital walkietalkies, memory cards and earpieces. (They
even brought a drone.) Good luck with that,
guys.
This sequel gets progressively messy
while The Blair Witch Project grew progressively taut. In this movie, the filmmakers throw out a lot of elements that are dead
ends double-crossing, infections and
time shifts. The film really only rights
itself in the final, breathtaking sequences
when the title character applies her special
brand of pressure.
So, for those keeping score, its: Nosey

Its time to bulldoze, right?

The Mills High School position is the first top administrative role Duszynski has filled, following years of working in the classroom before ultimately transitioning to the
front office under the encouragement of a former colleague.
As she looks ahead to the challenges and opportunities of
her new job, Duszynski said she appreciated the chance to
lead the high school which has been her home since she
came to the district.
It feels great, she said. Its really humbling and really,
truly an honor.
A Wisconsin native, Duszynski cut her teeth in Bay Area
education when she started teaching underprivileged students in the Hunters Point neighborhood in San Francisco.
Though she honed her passion and skills by helping
those students overcome the variety of social and educational challenges they faced, as a product of a small town,
Duszynski said she deeply appreciates the tight-knit nature
of Millbrae.
What I love about Millbrae is that it is such a close community, that has that small-town feel to it, much like the
community I grew up in, she said.
Assuming her new role as principal allows Duszynski to
educate ambitious students from a larger platform than she
would otherwise have access to while working in a single
classroom.
I would never be able to do this work authentically if I
had not been a classroom teacher, she said. I think that is
vital to be able to move into the administrative world. Its
exciting because I feel I can affect more on a broader level,
and since I have had those experiences on a teacher level, I
can help cultivate those experiences for our teachers.
It was that same grand ambition and perspective she had
while working in San Francisco that was recognized by a
principal who encouraged her to go back to school to get
her certification as a school administrator.
Though she loved her work as a teacher, Duszynski said
she has developed a similar appreciation for being an
administrator.
Administrative work is challenging but it is rewarding
and that is the work that drives me, she said. And the students inspire me to do the challenging work.
Beginning her career as the chief administrator at Mills
High School, Duszynski said a primary focus will be continuing to grow the schools reputation as a leader in science, technology, math and engineering curriculum.
The desire of students and families in the school community for lessons leading to degrees and ultimately careers in
the technology sector compelled Duszynski and other Mills
officials to offer specialized lessons in such fields, she
said.
It is our responsibility to develop the skills and offer
these programs to our students, she said. We feel there is
some urgency.
The need to develop cutting-edge programs, such as offering maker spaces for students interested in design, is more
focused under an effort for school officials to offer programs
most likely to help students remain competitive in the
fields leading to careers in the technology sector.
Its a real opportunity for us because our students more
and more want to enter these careers after Mills, she said.
They want to be engineers. They want to go to college.
And we want to step back and meet that interest.
The prevalence of such careers in San Mateo County has
been a key driver of the high cost of living, causing hardships for school districts to offer competitive salaries and
resulting in difficulties for many educators to afford housing near the communities they teach.
As a result, San Mateo Union High School District officials have considered building workforce housing, and a
portion of the project has been proposed on the Mills High
School campus.
Duszynski said she embraces the plans, as she believes
the housing projects could be a tremendous resource for the
district and school to hire and keep quality teachers.
When we are looking at the cost of living and the affordability of housing in the Bay Area and teaching, there
needs to be something done with the current situation, she
said. They need housing, and I feel this is one way we can
really attract, recruit and retain the workforce that we
need.
Officials are still in the process of working through the
proposed housing development, but should it come to
fruition, Duszynski said she believed ultimately the end
result could be an improved educational environment for
students.
Im definitely in support of the district exploring the
option and beginning the conversation with the community, she said. It is an opportunity for Mills in terms of having access to some really high quality teaching candidates
who might be attracted to Mills because of the possibility
of housing.
With a variety of potentially transformative projects on
the horizon, Duszynski said she is eager to begin the new
chapter of her career.
I have a passion for the work. I have a passion for this
wonderful community that has been very welcoming and
incredibly supportive, she said. Its just been an honor
and Im looking forward to the work ahead.

transferred over the summer to Aragon


High School.
As a testament to the communitys
propensity for activism, many community members heartily advocated
Nelson to keep his place at the school
while some celebrated the resignation
of Yim.
In recognition of such a passionate
educational interest, Belzer said the
Burlingame community enjoys a close
relationship with its only public high
school as generations of local families have passed through the campus
halls.
The first thing that makes
Burlingame unique is that it is a school
with just short of 100 years of history, he said. There is a lot of sense of
pride and ownership that the community feels in connection with the high
school, and thats really exciting,
because Ive never been a part of a
school that has such a long history.
With that comes a considerable set
of expectations, academically and
beyond, said Belzer, who said he
shares the communitys deep desire for
success.
There is a high level of expectation
for our school and for our students, he
said. But we all want what is best for
our kids we dont shy away from
that at all. The expectations that I have
of my own children is to do their best,
but also to be part of a community that
is defined by character and integrity.
Belzer, a San Mateo resident with
two children in local high schools, is

no stranger to the pressure of high performance in the classroom, as he


worked for nearly eight years as an
English teacher prior to transferring to
administration.
Though he said he appreciated his
experience as a teacher, he immediately was attracted to the opportunity to
lead an entire school community as a
principal.
As I moved into administrative
offices, I was told it was a thankless
job, but I have found just the opposite
is true, he said. I have found communities to be gracious and thankful for a
schools work on behalf of their kids,
and I am consistently reminded of the
positive impact schools make for students. I just really enjoy the relationship with students, teachers and the
larger community.
After more than a decade of administrative work at Mills High School,
Belzer said he was prepared to transition to a new opportunity and felt an
adequate support system was in place
at his former school to move forward
under the guidance of Pam Duszynski,
who was promoted from vice principal
to fill his position.
I miss the relationships. I miss the
students but change is good and Ive
been given an opportunity by our district that afford me a chance to grow
personally and professionally, he
said.
Though district officials do not typically transfer principals between
schools, said district spokeswoman

Sheri Costa, a unique set of circumstances led to Belzers appointment at


Burlingame High School.
First, after interviewing a number
of candidates, we felt Principal Belzer
remained the best fit for [Burlingame
High School], Costa said in an email.
Second, we knew that he had left
Mills in such a great position that his
successor would be left to lead a stable
and successful school.
Costa said early indications are district officials made the right choices
for the new principals at both high
schools.
The district team was right in that
the BHS community is reportedly really enjoying Principal Belzers leadership style and ability to build positive
relationships,
and
Principal
Duszynski, the new principal at Mills,
is proving to be a leader welcome and
supported by the Mills community,
she said.
For his part, Belzer credited the support of the administrative team at his
new school for helping to ease his
transition.
A lot of people have worked really
hard over the last several years to provide an excellent education for students, he said. That load does not
just rest on the shoulders of a principal.
As the new school year starts, Belzer
said he is prepared to work in tandem
with students, parents and staff to continue the work that has made the community so proud of its school.
Im impressed with the connection
the community has with this school,
he said. We are very fortunate to have
that and it gives us a foundation that
we can do some really excellent work
with.

committee; and then coerce compliance by implied threat to trigger its atwill
termination
provision,

Digiacinto wrote to the board.


Digiacinto previously told the Daily
Journal that he was bewildered by a
review of the program completed in
December 2015 by retired Judge Zerne
Haning and former county counsel
Thomas Casey.
Their report, which did not look
extensively at the financials, pointed to
the need for more county oversight.
A review of the program in 2012 by a
five-member committee appointed the
County Managers Office, which included Supervisor Dave Pine, concluded that
the PDP was a well-managed program
and considered a model throughout the
country for providing indigent
defense.
Not much, however, has changed with
the PDP program since 2012 which
makes the latest Haning-Casey report
so troubling, Digiacinto said previously.
The PDP is unique since most counties
in the state have public defender programs, which are run by the county like
district attorneys offices are. The program is also not meant to be a sustainable source of income for its panel members but it appears to be, according to
the Haning-Casey report.
The PDP program has operated in the
county essentially as is for 47 years
with the exception it now takes on
many more thousands of cases a year.
The PDP urged the Board of Supervisors
to reject each and every recommendation in the Haning-Casey report.

ing to San Mateo police.


She was very concerned about her
dog and we told her the dog didnt survive the fire. She tried to charge [into]
the building, Healy said. Eventually
they had to detain her until she calmed
down. It was very unfortunate for her
because Im sure she was overcome with
emotion.
The blaze completely destroyed the
home the woman occupied with her
boyfriend, while also causing smoke
and water damage to two neighboring
units.
Jeff Petersen, who manages the sites
homeowners association, said the incident could have been much worse if it
werent for the firefighters quick
response.
It held up remarkably well, the fire
walls did their jobs and the San Mateo
Fire Department was incredible,
Petersen said while surveying the damage Friday morning. This could have
been a five unit, catastrophic loss, but
they were able to contain it.
Petersen said the property had just
undergone recent improvements, including a new paint job.
Diane McClain has lived next door for
18 years and said her neighbor had been
there even longer. Her unit shares a wall
with the townhome that caught fire and
McClain said she wont be able to return

to living in her home for months.


McClain was in bed reading when she
smelled smoke and looked outside to
find her neighbors unit on fire. She
called 911 and, within minutes, law
enforcement and emergency crews were
on scene evacuating everyone. McClain
pointed to dry foliage in the area and the
yearslong drought while acknowledging it could have been worse.
See those hills? Its what we all love
about the place, is this. And we have
removed a lot of trees over the years
because they were too close to the property, McClain said, adding dozens of
firefighters arrived to assist. Maybe it
was because they were nervous about the
foliage, look how dry that stuff is up
there. And embers were just popping
up everywhere last night.
The fire was raised to four alarms
about an hour after it first began, in part
due to the difficulty of putting out the
smoldering hot spots hidden within the
foam-insulated plywood roof, Healy
said.
The apartment did not have a sprinkler
system and Healy compared the flammability of the foam insulation to gasoline.
A total of 14 fire engines; four ladder
trucks; two support trucks; numerous
chief officers; and 70 firefighters from
San
Mateo,
Belmont,
Coastside, Central County,
Colma, Foster City, Redwood
City, San Bruno and Woodside
assisted. All of the displaced
residents have since found
temporary housing, according to San Mateo fire.
McClain said firefighters
with axes and chain saws
helped keep the fire from
spreading. Her unit, along
with one other, experienced
moderate smoke and water
damage. McClain, a retired
Burlingame English teacher,
said she has thousands of
annotated books at home and
while the fire was traumatic,
knows it could have ended differently.
Its
a
nightmare,
McClain said while surveying
the damage outside her home.
Its my mothers things, its
my grandmothers things, its
a whole lifetime of stuff. But
Im not kidding myself, were
alive.
