San Mateo takes aim at secondhand smoke

City restricts smoking, considers new electronic cigarettes retailer permit rules
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Whether its traditional tobacco,

medical marijuana or the increasingly popular electronic cigarettes,
the San Mateo City Council is seeking to enact stricter regulations to
deter unwanted exposure to secondhand smoke.

But while various cities throughout the region have also proceeded
with stricter smoking bans, the San
Mateo City Council opted to set
itself apart from others in the county by introducing an ordinance that
would impact sellers of e-cigarettes
who could be required to obtain a
tobacco retailer permit.

Council unanimously agreed to

enact an ordinance prohibiting cigarette smoke in multi-family apartments, forbids medical marijuana
from being smoked in public places
and incorporates vapor products by
expanding the laws definitions to
include both tobacco and nicotine
products.

On Monday, the San Mateo City

The ordinance an effort trig-

gered by apartment residents

whove attended meetings with
pleas for more restrictive regulations will go into effect in 30
days.
The new prohibitions include a
ban on smoking tobacco cigarettes
not medical marijuana in
multi-family apartments as well as
common areas. It also bans any type

of smoking in lagoons and waterways, on city-owned or leased property such as parks as well as the surrounding sidewalks and streets, and
in areas where people have to wait
in line such as at train stations or
ATMs.
I am extremely proud of San
Mateo for taking the initiative to

San Mateo County joint powers authority

Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. founder Jack Ma, front left, and Chief Financial Officer Maggie Wu react, front right,
as the companys initial public offering, under the ticker BABA, began trading at the New York Stock Exchange
in New York Sept. 19, 2014. A class action lawsuit was filed Monday alleging Alibaba failed to disclose illegal
business practices that were taking place on its third-party online marketplace platform.

About 297,000 PG&E customers

in San Mateo County could get their
energy from renewable sources in
less than a year under a joint powers
authority being formed called
Peninsula Clean Energy.
The Office of Sustainability has
been granted $1.5 million to form
the joint venture known as
Community Choice Aggregation
that is already in place in Marin and
Sonoma counties.
The county will need at least three
of 20 cities to join the JPA to get it
off the ground. The hope, however,
is that all cities will partner with the

county to buy
clean energy.
The
JPA
would allow its
customers
to
buy renewable
energy at competitive rates. In
fact, customers
who purchase

percent
renewable energy from sources such
as wind or solar will see their
monthly electric bills rise by a modest $2, according to a technical

heard Tuesday.

Alibaba faces class-action lawsuit Field lights debate

Investor claims company failed to disclose illegal business practices
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

A San Mateo County Superior

Court judge could review claims the
e-commerce giant Alibaba violated
federal laws by failing to warn eager
investors of alleged illegal business
practices.
Often referenced as the Chinese
version of eBay Inc., Alibaba Group
Holding Company located its U.S.
headquarters at 400 S. El Camino
Real in San Mateo since beginning

to trade on the New York Stock

Exchange last year.
A class action lawsuit was filed
Monday alleging Alibaba, along
with senior executives and dozens
of American as well as international financial service companies,
failed to adequately warn investors
when the Chinese company
released its initial public offering in
September 2014 the well-publicized stock that initially showed
great promise raising $25 billion for
the company before plummeting 50

percent nearly a year later.

As of Tuesday evening, shares
listed under the ticker symbol
BABA closed at $63.92 down
from a high of nearly $120 and its
initial public offering at $68.
Alibaba allegedly failed to disclose illegal business practices that
were taking place on its third-party
online marketplace platform,
according to the class action suit
filed by the law firm Robbins Geller

County to alter services for jailed youth

Changes follow civil grand jury report that identified weaknesses
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT

Multiple county agencies will work together to develop a comprehensive plan to ensure
incarcerated juveniles better transition back
into school and family life after being released
from detention.
The move follows a San Mateo County
Civil Grand Jury report released in July that
concluded educating jailed youth in the county has its weaknesses.
Education for juveniles in jail is conducted
at three year-round programs at the Youth
Services Center in San Mateo, Margaret J.
Kemp Girls Camp in San Mateo and Camp
Glenwood Boys Ranch in La Honda.
Computers, including online instruction,
will be used more extensively to educate
youth once the Probation Department can
ensure a safe and secure learning environment, according to a staff report by County
Manager John Maltbie to the Board of
Supervisors.
In its report, the grand jury recommended

Comment on
or share this story at
www.smdailyjournal.com
that more emphasis needs to be placed on the
mental health of juveniles and that the school
work they do complete while detained is
counted toward graduation.
It also suggested that families be more
involved in their childrens progress.
In response, the Probation Department is
collaborating with Behavioral Health and
Recovery Services, the San Mateo County
Office of Education, the District Attorneys
Office, the Private Defender Panel, the
Juvenile Justice Delinquency Prevention
Commission and local nonprofits to redesign
the antiquated Camp Glenwood Program,
according to Maltbies report.
Although the county is required to respond
to the grand jury, it does not have to follow
any of its recommendations.

A committee comprised of officials from

the various county departments will develop a
thorough re-entry plan focused on supporting
the youths educational, vocational and therapeutic needs as they transition back to their
families and communities, according to
Maltbies report.
The Probation Department has also applied
for a grant that, if awarded, will allow additional staffing for the County Office of
Education to assist with transitioning youth
back to their home schools, transportation for
parents to visit their sons at Camp Glenwood
and additional vocational training to prepare
the youth to return to their communities,
according to Maltbies report.
The grand jury decided to investigate following a suggestion the County Office of
Education was not providing all required educational support to incarcerated juveniles,
especially those with physical and mental
health challenges who are housed at Camp
Glenwood.

U.S. government deports fewest immigrants in nearly a decade

By Alicia A. Caldwell
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The Obama administration deported fewer immigrants over the past
12 months than at any time since 2006,
according to internal figures obtained by the
Associated Press as Democratic presidential
candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton called
Obamas deportation policies too harsh.
Deportations of criminal immigrants have

fallen to the lowest levels since President

Barack Obama took office in 2009, despite his
pledge to focus on finding and deporting
criminals living in the country illegally. The
share of criminal immigrants deported in relation to overall immigrants deported rose
slightly, from 56 percent to 59 percent.
The overall total of 231,000 deportations
generally does not include Mexicans who
were caught at the border and quickly
returned home by the U.S. Border Patrol. The

figure does include roughly 136,700 convicted criminals deported in the last 12 months.
Total deportations dropped 42 percent since
2012.
In a statement Tuesday evening, U.S.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement
spokeswoman Jennifer Elzea said the agency
has refined its priorities to improve the quality of its removals by focusing on the most
serious public safety and national security
threats as well as recent border crossers.

Obituary

Opal Truman Peacock

March 12th, 1912 - September 24th, 2015

Opal Truman Peacock (nee Ramer) died peacefully of natural causes
at the young age of 103 years on September 24, 2015.
Opal was the eldest of 6 children, born March 21, 1912, to the
marital union of Roy Ramer and Rachel (nee Allen) Ramer. Opal
outlived all five of her siblings. Preceding her in death are brothers
Hubert Ramer, Robert Troy Ramer and Dean Ramer; and sisters Nova
(nee Ramer) Winford and Ruby Pearl Lucey (nee Ramer) Lancaster.
The Ramer Family moved from their family home in Spiro, Oklahoma in the late 1940s and
settled in Monterey/Carmel, California. Opal took a train to California from Oklahoma in
advance of the remaining Ramer Family members. In California, Opal found a career as a school
teacher, allowing her to establish herself in preparation for the arrival of her other family
members, except brothers Hubert and Dean, who had decided to stay in Oklahoma and tough
out the devastating dust bowl. The teaching profession t Opal like a glove and she continued
teaching her entire career until retiring after over 40 years of service.
It was after moving to California that Opal met the love of her life, Loren Peacock, to whom
she was married for over 50 years. Although Opal and Loren were not blessed with children of
their own, bright little faces of the giggling, chattering children that Opal taught in school were
fulllment enough.
Aside from Opals salt of the earth work ethic and seless dedication to her entire extended
family, her generosity of spirit and faith touched the lives of everyone that ever knew her and
will be greatly missed.
Family and friends are invited to attend a graveside funeral for Opal on October 8, 2015, at
12 Noon at Skylawn Funeral Home located at Highway 92 and Skyline Blvd. in San Mateo, CA.
Interment will follow where Opal will be reunited with Loren Peacock in the Skylawn Memorial
Park family crypt.

Transient woman arrested

for allegedly assaulting officer
Pacifica police detained a 20-year-old
transient woman on Monday evening on
suspicion of resisting arrest and assaulting a
police officer outside of a laundromat.
At about 6 p.m., officers responded to
reports of a woman, later identified as
Mariah Demorest of Pacifica, who had been
sleeping in the Tons of Bubbles Laundromat
at 440 Manor Plaza for the past two hours.
While one of the officers escorted
Demorest out of the laundromat, he determined she was displaying signs of being
under the influence of a controlled substance.
As the officer attempted to further investigate Demorests situation, she became uncooperative and refused to follow directions,
according to police. At one point, Demorest
started to walk away from the officer, police
said.
According to police, the officer ordered
her to stop numerous times and she did not
comply. When he attempted to place
Demorest into a control hold, they fell to the
ground and she started punching the officer,
police said.
The officer called for emergency assistance and several other Pacifica police officers responded including three crisis intervention-trained officers, police said.
Officers arrested Demorest and placed her
in a restraint device because of her erratic
behavior and the violence she had displayed
toward officers, police said. While she was
being arrested, Demorest spat on the officers and made numerous threats of wanting
to kill them, according to police.
Police transported Demorest to San Mateo
County Jail on suspicion of obstructing or
resisting an officer by threat or force, battery on a police officer and resisting arrest.

Second patient accuses

doctor of sexual assault
A Redwood City doctor accused of sexually assaulting a female patient during an
acupuncture session in June has had a second victim come forward following a newspaper article about his arrest, according to
the San Mateo County District Attorneys
Office.
Randall Neustaedter, 65, pleaded not
guilty Tuesday in San Mateo County
Superior Court to sexual battery and sexual

Randall
Neustaedter

penetration charges stemming from the June incident and the new charges
filed against him from his
alleged second victim,
according to prosecutors.
Neustaedter was out of
custody on $200,000 bail.
His bail was increased
to $500,000, however,
and he is now in county
jail, according to prose-

cutors.
Earlier this year, a woman bought three
acupuncture sessions with Neustaedter, who
lists himself as a doctor of Oriental medicine, at his business on Woodside Road. The
woman had found Neustaedters business
using the online discount service Groupon.
The first two sessions were uneventful,
according to prosecutors.
On June 25, the day of her third session,
the woman said Neustaedter began fondling
her genitals as he was giving her a massage
and then pressed his erect penis against her
arm.
A second victim came forward alleging
the same conduct, according to prosecutors.
He returns to court Oct. 22 for a preliminary hearing.

two days after the alleged robbery. Police
say Evans stole prescription drugs after
allegedly holding a knife to a Walgreens
pharmacists neck.
Police say he ordered four co-workers to
move to the back of the pharmacy, which
leads to the kidnapping charges.
Evans allegedly demanded one of the
pharmacy workers to give him one box of
Dilaudid. He also allegedly stole some
syringes.
He was recognized by a San Mateo police
officer from surveillance video from the
Walgreens pharmacy on the 4000 block of
South El Camino Real.
He returns to court Oct. 23 for a preliminary hearing.
He remains in custody on no-bail status.

Gov. Jerry Brown signs law

targeting gender wage gap

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO Female workers

in California will get new tools to challenge gender-based wage gaps under legislation signed into law Tuesday that supporters say offers the strongest equal-pay
protection in the nation.
Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown signed
the measure while surrounded by women
and girls at an event at Rosie the Riveter
National Historical Park in Richmond,
northeast of San Francisco.
The stratification and the pay disparities in California and in America, probably in the world, are something that really eats away at our whole society,
Brown said. He called the legislation a
milestone.
The bill by Sen. Hannah-Beth Jackson,
a Santa Barbara Democrat, expands
Californias existing equal pay law and
goes further than federal law by placing
the burden on the employer to prove a
mans higher pay is based on factors
other than gender.
It also protects workers from discrimination and retaliation if they ask ques-

tions about how

much other people
earn, though it doesnt require that
employers provide
that
information.
Workers also will
gain the right to sue
if they are paid less
Hannah-Beth than someone with a
different job title
Jackson
who does substantially similar work.
The Fair Pay Act stipulates employers
can justify higher wages for men only if
the pay is based on seniority, a merit system, quantity or quality of production or
any other bona fide factor other than
sex. It cleared the Legislature with
bipartisan support and backing from the
state Chamber of Commerce.
Senate Minority Leader Jean Fuller, RBakersfield, said the legislation strikes a
balance between the interests of employers and women in the workforce.
Some state lawmakers say they were
motivated to pursue equal pay legislation
by heartfelt pleas from high-profile
Hollywood actresses at this years

Academy Awards. Lawyer Ellen Pao also

made national waves when she filed a
gender discrimination lawsuit against a
prestigious venture capital firm in
Silicon Valley.
While she lost, the publicity prompted
embarrassed soul-searching in an industry dominated by male managers.
Women often do not know they are
being paid less than their male co-workers, said Jennifer Reisch, Equal Rights
Advocates legal director. The San
Francisco-based civil rights group sponsored the legislation.
By closing loopholes in Californias
equal pay law and expanding protections
against retaliation, the Fair Pay Act will
encourage more women to ask questions
and demand fair compensation, she said
in a statement.
The new law takes effect Jan. 1.
Later Tuesday, Brown announced he
vetoed separate legislation intended to
ensure medical problems that primarily
affect women such as pregnancy,
breast cancer, menopause and osteoporosis would no longer be considered
pre-existing conditions when permanent
disability compensation is calculated.

WASHINGTON Hillary Rodham Clinton is beginning to

draw contrasts with her chief Democratic rival, Vermont Sen.
Bernie Sanders, as they approach their first
presidential primary debate next week.
Following the mass shooting in Oregon,
Clinton quickly laid out her plan to address
gun violence, an issue where Sanders has
been at odds with some Democrats and fellow liberals.
In New Hampshire, Clinton points out
distinctions in their respective college
Hillary Clinton affordability plans. And before
Democratic audiences, she speaks of her
deep ties to the White House and party
a contrast, though she doesnt mention it, with Sanders. Hes the longestserving independent in Congress, and
one who considers himself a democratic
socialist.
While Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump and some of his rivals
have gone after each other by name,
Bernie Sanders, Clinton, Sanders, former Maryland Gov.
Martin OMalley and the rest of the
Democratic field have engaged in a more civil contest for their
partys nomination.

Obama starts selling

trade agreement to
Congress and public
By Kevin Freking
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Negotiations over the

complex trade deal took more than five years.
On Tuesday, President Barack Obama began
what may be a similarly difficult task selling the Trans-Pacific Partnership to Congress
and the American public.
Obama met with business and agricultural
leaders at the Department of Agriculture. The
site of the meeting reflects the urgency that
farm groups have attached to the deal to
remove tariffs and other trade barriers that
would increase exports ranging from meat
and poultry to grains and cotton.
Obama emphasized that the deal would
eliminate or reduce more than 18,000 tariffs
that participating countries impose on U.S.
exports. The reduction of those tariffs will
lower the price that international consumers
pay for U.S. goods. For example, Obama said

Top EU court rules data

LUXEMBOURG Europes top court
ruled Tuesday that data stored on U.S. servers

private data from the region.
The courts decision declares invalid a pact

Japan currently puts a 38 percent tax on

American beef and Malaysia currently puts a
30 percent tax on American auto parts.
If the tariffs are down, if the taxes are
down on goods made in America, that means
U.S. companies are investing here and are
able to sell over there without a disadvantage.
Thats what American leadership looks like
in the 21st century, Obama told reporters at
the end of the closed-door meeting.
Leaders of trade groups representing the
film, travel and technology industries were
among those who attended the meeting with
Obama and Agriculture Secretary Tom
Vilsack. One of the administrations selling
points is that it will put pressure on China to
match various safeguards and openness to
competition thats written into the agreement.
Under this agreement, we, rather than
countries like China, are writing the rules for
the global economy, Obama said.

agreement announced Monday is known, but
several labor groups are worried that it will
result in American jobs sent to countries with
lower wages and less stringent labor and
environmental standards. A congressional
vote on the pact is not expected to occur until
well into next year, providing the unions with
the chance to maximize leverage with lawmakers coveting their support.
The president has to wait 90 days before
signing the pact, and only then will Congress
begin the process of voting on it. Approval of
the deal would give Obama a legacy-defining
victory. To achieve a victory, Obama will

need help from Republicans and will need to

overcome doubts from a key Democratic
constituency. In the hours after the trade deal
was announced, some union leaders made
clear that a candidates stance on the TransPacific Partnership will determine whether
he or she can expect support. While unions
have lost political clout as their numbers have
declined, their political action committees
donated more than $60 million to campaigns
during the 2012 elections. About 90 percent
of that money went toward Democratic candidates, according to the Center for
Responsive Politics.

Top general recommends more U.S. troops in Afghanistan

By Deb Riechman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The top U.S.

commander in Afghanistan recommended on Tuesday that President
Barack Obama revise his plan and
keep more than 1,000 U.S. troops in
the country beyond 2016, just days
after a deadly U.S. airstrike mistakenly struck a hospital during fierce
fighting in the north.
Gen. John F. Campbell told
Congress that conditions on the
ground have changed since Obama
announced his plan in 2014 to cut the
current U.S. force of 9,800 to an
embassy-based security contingent of
about 1,000 in Kabul post-2016.
Obama has vowed to a war-weary
nation to end the U.S. war in
Afghanistan and get American troops
out by the time he leaves office in
January 2017.
Campbell said, however, that
Afghanistan remains engaged in a
violent battle against the Taliban,

military operations in Pakistan have

pushed fighters, including those
linked to al-Qaida, into eastern and
northern Afghanistan and the emergence of Islamic State fighters has
further complicated the conflict.
Campbell, the top commander of
U.S. and allied forces in Afghanistan,
said that dropping to 1,000 troops
would leave the United States with
limited ability to train and assist the
Afghan forces and even less capacity
to conduct counterterrorism operations. He said the different options he
has provided to his superiors are for
troop levels beyond a normal
embassy presence of about 1,000.
Campbell refused to discuss the
numbers of troops he is recommending. But when Sen. Angus King, IMaine, asked Campbell if he thought
the president should revise his troop
withdrawal plan, Campbell replied:
I will stomp my foot. Yes, sir.
Both Defense Secretary Ash Carter
and Secretary of State John Kerry
have stressed the importance of con-

tinuing counterterrorism missions in

Afghanistan, even into 2017.
In his opening remarks to the
Senate Armed Services Committee,
Campbell offered details about the
airstrike on a medical clinic that
Doctors Without Borders ran in
Kunduz. He said a U.S. Special
Operations unit that was close by was
talking to the aircraft that delivered
the firepower, which killed at least 22
people.
To be clear, the decision to provide (airstrikes) was a U.S. decision,
made within the U.S. chain of command, Campbell said. The hospital
was mistakenly struck. We would
never intentionally target a protected
medical facility.
In a possible indication that the
attacking aircraft was given an
improper go-ahead to open fire on the
hospital, Campbell said he is requiring that every U.S. service member in
Afghanistan be retrained on the circumstances in which U.S. air power
can be used.

Friedman, Land for San Mateo Union High School district

Editorial
Daily Journal
T

he San Mateo Union High

School District has a sterling
record when it comes to educating its students. Many are high
achieving and its schools and educational offerings reect that. It also does
a good job in preparing students who
are not on the four-year university track
while contending with an ever-changing community, educational funding
system and facility needs.
However, in recent years, there has
been some faltering when it comes to
relationships with city ofcials and residents and its overall communication.
The district is vast and serves several
cities and has numerous feeder districts.
While it appears there have been some
positive movement toward relationship
building, with a new superintendent
and communications specialist, there is
still room for new blood to reinvigorate
the board and bolster its community
connections.
Candidate Greg Land, a member of
the Burlingame Elementary School
District Board of Trustees and a principal in the Los Altos School District,
can provide the new perspective. From
his work experience and elected ofce,
Land has a rsthand working experience what it takes to be successful in
the classroom with his nuts-and-bolts
knowledge of changing curriculum
while also contending with school
nancing and other issues as a member
of an elected board.
Trustee Stephen Rogers rst joined
the board in the midst of a nancial crisis and used his scal know-how and
belief in transparency to steer the district out of what could have been a
larger mess with its bond management.
He should be commended for that service. Without his input and guidance on
complex and ever-changing nancial

data, the district may not have been

able to tackle worthwhile projects. He
acknowledges the board could have
done a better job communicating its
facility needs in the past few years,
specically the co-location of Design
Tech High School at Mills High
School. But there have been other
issues including the boards relationship
with Burlingame ofcials over its
shared use of the Burlingame Aquatic
Center and eld fees along with a
sometimes overreaching policy on eld
access that has even left nonprot
groups like Relay for Life scratching
their heads.
Trustee Marc Friedman also
acknowledges the boards challenges
with communication and recognizes it
is a work in progress. However,
Friedman shows a tremendous passion
for the job and also used his nancial
acumen when contending with the districts scal woes. He also believes the
district should continue with its training
program for teachers as it relates to the
new Common Core curriculum so they
can use that experience as coaches for
other teachers. Additionally, both he
and Land think the district can employ
a variety of techniques to assess student
performance without relying on new
testing.
The district has a new leadership
team helmed by Superintendent Kevin
Skelly. It deserves a slight change on
the board to keep it moving forward
with trustees who have practical classroom knowledge, nancial acumen and
a passion for the job and communicating that well to the public, while also
listening intently, as tough decisions are
made.

Letter to the editor

Millbrae residents,
dont vote for incumbents
Editor,
Regarding Four vie for Millbrae
council seats (in the Sept. 21 edition
of the Daily Journal), I would like to
reiterate my views regarding the present councilmembers running for reelection. In simple words, do not vote
for them or for any incumbent.
I have been requesting for months
that the City Council start making the
business owners clean and maintain the
sidewalks along Broadway and the
alley east of Broadway. Dont be fooled
by these candidates using this as a platform to be re-elected. This should have
been enforced right along, by the council and code enforcement. Councilmen
Lee and Gottschalk have both ignored
my pleas to clean up Broadway. Now,

because it is election time, they make it

sound like it is their idea to help beautify Millbrae.
Do not be taken in by the snow job
the present councilmembers are feeding
you. They didnt clean up Millbrae nor
did they listen to what the residents
requested during theirpresent term. In
my opinion, the City Council and code
enforcement should make regular visits
to the business district to make sure the
businesses are in compliance with city
and state codes. That includes the state
ordinance no smoking within 25 feet
of an open door or window. The sidewalks on Broadway are so lthy that
they need to be power washed and
maintained by the business owners/tenants on a regular basis. Do not be
fooled by incumbents Gottschalk and
Lee, they will not follow through with
their empty promises. They were on the

Violent imagery

ts a dark side of heightened technology, but one

to which we ought to be paying much closer
attention. ... Its a whole new level of involvement and its terrifying. Stop Teaching Our Kids to
Kill, Lt. Col. David Grossman and Gloria de Gaitano
A recent report about how some young men who hear and
view reports about mass murders engage in copycat behavior caught our attention. Included was a report that even
though the United States accounts for just 5 percent of the
global population, it has 31 percent of all public mass
shootings in which at least four people are killed. Although
the evidence is sketchy, some researchers have begun to
conclude that highly publicized mass killings, unusually
prevalent in the United
States, are contagious and,
in essence, build on each
other. San Francisco
Chronicle, Aug. 28, 2015.
This brought to mind a
related problem concerning
the violence and slaughter
on TV, in movies, video
games and other electronic
devices. Cant help but
think about the number of
kids who are exposed to
them at an early age and on
up through the most vulnerable teens when they attend
movies that emphasize graphic violence, mayhem and murder and often spend hours playing extremely violent video
games with little or no parental supervision. What is this
doing to those developing brains?
As Michael Gurian would tell us in The Purpose of
Boys (which every parent should read, BTW): The areas
of life in which our boys need help developing, the areas of
active interaction that build their frontal and temporal lobe
functioning, are diminished by most screen time. Organic
brain growth defects affect later educational success, as well
as social and emotional literacy.
There are many reasons for the high rate of mass murders,
and murders in general in the United States which are connected to the cultural values that so many Americans condone. For instance, as our government acquiesces to corporate desires because of the obsession with wealth and profits, it contributes to the rampant violence in the media.
Since deregulation in 1988, during the Reagan administration, it has been all down hill. When capitalism comes to
dominate all other human aspirations, it becomes soulless
and makes men into unfeeling machines. He continues:
America is a land of such profound contradictions: the
greatest and richest country in the world with the most shallow and vulgar culture; a place with the highest standard of
living but also with some of the highest rates of depression. Rabbi Shmuley Boteach, The Broken American
Male.
Many studies have shown that, in the long run, television
and other electronic devices exert a great inuence over
how the average American thinks and his general attitude
toward life. And a child who grows up spending many
hours watching TV is inundated with a very unrealistic and
unbalanced view of American culture. As he grows into his
teen years, much of his outlook on life has been determined
by this distortion of reality whether its materialism, irresponsible sexual activity, the inuence of narcissistic
celebrities or rampant violence.
The trouble is, as Leonard Sax M.D., Ph.D. wrote in
Boys Adrift, Teenage boys are looking for models of
mature adulthood, but we no longer make any collective
effort to provide such models. What is a teenager supposed
to think about the promise of adulthood and the integrity of

Its appalling to think about how many young children
and teens are allowed to watch TV, use violent and gory
video games, etc. for hours on end. Young kids are not able
to determine that much of what they watch is unrealistic,
deceptive and seductive and is not only turning them into
mindless consumers, but inuring them to gratuitous violence. How can children gain a sense of positive values
when they spend so much time with such a pernicious inuence? How can they take us seriously when we urge them to
be honest, decent, and responsible to say no? How can
we expect them to trust us?

LIMA, Peru Chinas slowdown and tumbling commodity prices will push global economic growth this year to the lowest level
since the recession year 2009, the International
Monetary Fund predicted Tuesday.
In a report Tuesday in advance of the IMFWorld Bank annual meetings here this week,
the fund says the world economy will grow 3.1
percent this year, down from a July forecast of
3.3 percent and from 3.4 percent growth last
year.
The risks seem more tilted to the downside
than they did just a few months ago, IMF
chief economist Maurice Obstfeld, told
reporters.
Still, Obstfeld downplayed the risk of a
global recession.
The Federal Reserve last month cited economic weakness around the world and
especially in China when it decided to
postpone a long-anticipated increase in shortterm U.S. interest rates, which its kept near
zero since December 2008. Obstfeld said any
rate increase in the United States would be
good news, reflecting the Feds vote of confidence in the American economy, the worlds
largest.
The fund predicts the United States will
grow 2.6 percent this year, up from a July fore-

cast of 2.5 percent and from 2.4 percent growth

last year.
Emerging market economies will likely
grow 4 percent, which would mark the fifth
straight annual drop. They have been hurt by
an economic slowdown in China, which has
reduced demand for emerging market raw
materials and pushed down prices of commodities such as copper and oil.
What happens in China has repercussions
for the entire world economy, Obstfeld said.
Among those hardest hit by the commodities
bust: The Brazilian economy, forecast to contract by 3 percent this year; and Russia, forecast to shrink 3.8 percent because of lower oil
prices and economic sanctions imposed by the
West as punishment for Russian aggression in
Ukraine.
Collapsing energy prices are also hurting
Canada. The IMF downgraded its forecast for
the Canadian economy by half a percentage
point to 1.5 percent this year.
The Chinese economy has been slowing for
four straight years, partly because the government is engineering a transition away from
dependence on exports and often-inefficient
investments. Instead, they are moving toward
slower, more sustainable growth based on consumer spending. The IMF expects Chinese
economic growth to drop to a 25-year low 6.8
percent this year, but that is unchanged from its
July forecast.

whether policymakers still feel confident about raising interest rates.
We need to see if they had signs that
last weeks bad jobs report was coming,
and decided to hold off on raising rates
then, or if they are still set on moving
this year, said J.J. Kinahan, chief market strategist at TD Ameritrade.
In energy markets, oil rose after the
Energy Department said U.S. crude oil
production declined by 120,000 barrels
per day in September compared with
August. The agency also expects oil
production to decline from an average
of 9.2 million barrels per day this year
to 8.9 million barrels per day in 2016.

Bearcats outlast Rams

By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

It turned out not to be as easy as San

Mateo volleyball made it look through the
rst two sets.
The Bearcats locked up with scrappy
Westmoor Tuesday in a key Peninsula
Athletic League Ocean Division matchup at
San Mateo. But after the Bearcats took the
rst two games, the Rams rallied back to
push it to ve before San Mateo (4-1 in PAL
Ocean, 5-7 overall) staved off the unlikely
comeback for a 25-19, 25-16, 17-25, 2625, 15-13 victory.
After the Rams (3-2, 8-10) blazed through
sets three and four, they jumped out to 4-0
lead in Game 5. But the Bearcats rallied back
to take an 8-6 lead on three straight kills by
outside hitter Meleina ORourke. Then, after
Westmoor fought back to tie it 9-9, senior
opposite hitter Valerie Mihalek gave San
Mateo the lead for good with a crushing kill
off the right side.
It was all the attitude of the girls, San
Mateo head coach Andoni Javellana said of
the Game 5 comeback. They decided they
wanted to ght for it, and when they decide
they want to ght for something, theres not
too much that can stand in their way.
As ORourke goes, so do the Bearcats. The
junior red a match-high 12 kills, with 10
of them coming in the three sets won by San
Mateo. Mihalek added nine kills for the
Bearcats.
Down the stretch, the Bearcats keyed on a
Westmoor defense favoring the back line
and exploited it, according to ORourke.
We were aiming for the line, ORourke
said. We were tipping short because they
werent playing the line.
San Mateo controlled Game 1 from the
outset, jumping out to a 4-0 lead and never
looking back. But in Game 2, Westmoor
clawed early on; then deadlocked at 7-7, San
Mateo junior Katrina Chan served up three
straight aces to give her team a commanding
lead.
Another factor for San Mateo through the
opening two sets was middle blocker Alexa

TERRY BERNAL/DAILY JOURNAL

SAN JOSE The San Jose Sharks have

spent most of the past decade facing questions about what it would take to get over
the hump in the playoffs and finally make it
to the Stanley Cup.
Coming off their first missed postseason
since 2003, the questions around the Sharks
heading into this season
are about whether they
can even make it to the
playoffs.
With new coach Peter
DeBoer and key offseason
additions
in
goalie
Martin Jones, defenseman Paul Martin and forward Joel Ward, the
Peter DeBoer Sharks are looking to
prove that last years struggles were just an
aberration and the franchise still has what it
takes to contend for a title.
The bottom line is not everything here is
broken, DeBoer said. Were going to concentrate on the areas that need fixing right
away.
DeBoer said his biggest emphasis will be
on improving San Joses five-on-five play,
forechecking and defensive zone coverage.
Those were all areas where the Sharks struggled last season, leading to their 12th-place
finish in the 14-team Western Conference.
You go through the same things and the
same motions, its going to get stale at
times, forward Tommy Wingels said. A
fresh voice helps, but like I said, and Pete had
said, hes bringing new ideas to this team as
well which should rejuvenate us, re-energize
us and get us back to where we want to be.

Houstons Keuchel dominates New York

By Howie Rumberg
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Dallas Keuchel and the

Houston Astros defied expectations all season
long. Facing his biggest test yet, the bearded
ace beat the odds and the Yankees once again.
Pitching on three days rest for the first time
in his career, Keuchel baffled New York for six
innings of three-hit ball. Colby Rasmus and
Carlos Gomez homered, and the Astros won 30 Tuesday night in the American League wildcard game.
The orange-clad Astros, who secured their
spot in this winner-take-all game on the last

day of the regular season,

advanced to the AL
Division Series. They will
face the defending AL
champion Royals, starting Thursday night in
Kansas City.
To come to Yankee
Stadium and play that well
Dallas Keuchel was truly remarkable,
said Keuchel, the ALs
only 20-game winner.
Aggressive from the start in their initial
playoff appearance as an American League club
and first since being swept by the White

Sox in the 2005 World Series the Astros

came out swinging against Masahiro Tanaka
in front of a revved-up Yankee Stadium crowd.
Rasmus sent Tanakas first pitch of the second inning soaring into deep right field.
Gomez, who only had five plate appearances
after missing nearly two weeks with a strained
chest muscle in mid-September, connected on
the first offering of the fourth.
That really settled me down, and thats who
we are, Keuchel said. We hit a lot of home
runs, pitch well and play defense.
AL hits leader Jose Altuve had an RBI single
off All-Star reliever Dellin Betances in the seventh.

Reliever Tony Sipp walked one, and Will

Harris and Luke Gregerson were each perfect
for an inning to finish the three-hitter. The
boos from the 50,113 stunned fans in the
crowd grew with each out as Gregerson closed
for a save.
The Astros raced to an area between first and
second after Brian McCann grounded out to
end it and jumped up and down in a big scrum.
As he was coming off the field, Keuchel
pumped his fists toward a group of cheering
Astros supporters in orange shirts and a few
in big black beards behind the visiting
dugout.

But Hillsdale countered with a pair of
Palisoc scores one off a 5-meter penalty
shot and the other on a counterattack off an
assist from OShaughnessy to take a 7-3 at
halftime.
We played pretty unselfish, Hodzic said.
The Knights scored three straight goals in
the third, started by Ronberg, who pounced on
the rebound off a Cassin shot and put it home.
[Ronberg] made a lot of good hustle
plays, Hodzic said.
Ronberg scored again, off an assist from
Nicolas Patane, before assisting on
Eveslages second goal of the game to put the
Knights up 10-3 after three quarters.
The Cherokees showed a little more resolve
and energy in the fourth period, as they
outscored the Knights 3-2 in the quarter. Attari
scored all three of Sequoias goal, two coming
on 5-meter penalty shots.
Cassin scored a pair of goals in the final
period to round out Hillsdales scoring.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

After going through the first round of

Peninsula Athletic League Ocean Division
action undefeated, the Hillsdale boys water
polo team knows it will get the best from
every opponent it faces from here on out.
The second time you play somebody, its
tough, said Hillsdale coach Ren Hodzic.
They know what were doing now.
Hodzic admitted Tuesdays opponent
Sequoia did some things differently from the
first time the Knights played them but, in the
end, Hillsdale simply had too much firepower
as the Knights stayed unbeaten in Ocean
Division play with a 12-6 win over the
Cherokees.
[Sequoia] looked a lot better. They caught
us a little by surprise, Hodzic said. It was
sloppy, but a win is a win.
The Hillsdale offense revolves around hole
set Curtis Cassin and while he did end up with
three goals, it was the rest of the Knights
offense that did the bulk of the damage.
Sophomore Grant Ronberg led Hillsdale
with four goals and an assist, while Justin
Palisoc added three goals and an assist. Brody
Eveslage came through with a pair of goals
and a pair of helpers and goaltender Kevin
OShaughnessy, who finished with 15 saves,
also got involved in the offense with three
assists.
I think [Cassin] is the best scorer in the
league, Hodzic said. Wed like to get the ball
to Curtis but, when that doesnt happen, we
have the guys who can pick up the slack.
Pedram Attari led the Sequoia offense with
four goals three coming in the fourth period. Henry Adams and Ben Elliott rounded out
the scoring for the Cherokees with one goal
apiece.
Sequoia (3-4 PAL Ocean) got off to a good
start. The defense denied the Knights quality
shots early in the first period and when Adams

scored off a Babak Amerian assist on a 2-on-1
fastbreak to give Sequoia 1-0 lead three minutes into the match, the Cherokees were
thinking upset.
Sequoia was still in good position until late
in the first period, when Hillsdale scored a pair
of late goals to take a 2-1 lead after the first
seven minutes. The Knights tied the score at 1
with 1:33 to play in the first period when Hao
Peng tried to float a shot past the Sequoia
goaltender. The ball came up short of the cage,
however, and while the ball may have floated
over the goal line, Ronberg came charging in
from the wing and punched it home.
With less than 30 seconds left in the opening period, Cassin gave the Knights the lead
for good, when he one-timed a shot home off

an assist from Eveslage.

Those were the first two of five unanswered
goals by Hillsdale (7-0). Ronberg put the
Knights up 3-1 less than a minute into the second period when he took a long outlet pass
down the right wing from OShaughnessy,
took two strokes toward goal and uncorked a
shot that found the far left corner.
Eveslage put Hillsdale up 4-1 on a similar
play. Again, OShaughnessy triggered the
play with a long outlet down the right wing to
Palisoc. He took two hard strokes toward the
goal and, when two Sequoia defenders went to
him, Palisoc dumped a pass off to Eveslage,
who buried a one-timer to put Hillsdale up 5-1.
Sequoia scored two straight goals to close
to 5-3 one each from Elliott, off an assist

San Mateo jumped out to a 4-1 lead in the

period when they outscored Cap 5-0.
Taylor Doi paced the Bearcats with five
goals. Tara Nash and Marianne Tessier each
scored three, while Natalie Ken added a pair.

The Cherokees jumped out to a 3-1 lead
after the first period, but the Vikings came

Sports brief
New York attorney general opens
probe into fantasy sports websites
NEW YORK The states attorney general on Tuesday
sent letters to daily fantasy sports websites DraftKings
and FanDuel demanding they turn over details of any
investigations into their employees, saying they may
have gained an unfair, financial advantage in a contest
known as Daily Fantasy Football.
The letters were prompted by media reports a DraftKings
employee may have had access to valuable company data
before winning second place in a FanDuel contest. The
incident has been likened to insider trading.
Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, in opening his
investigation, said DraftKings and FanDuel employees
may have exploited their access to nonpublic data.
Schneiderman wants the companies to explain their
policies or practices prohibiting employees from playing
daily fantasy sports, whose participants put together virtual teams based on real players and compete for points
based on the players statistics.
In the letters, Schneiderman asked for the names, job
titles and descriptions of employees who compile and
aggregate data including pricing algorithms and athletes
ownership percentages for past contests.
As the controversy reverberated Tuesday, ESPN said it
was cutting sponsored DraftKings elements from within
its shows.

It was a celebration a few years in the
making. The Astros had averaged 104
losses in their previous four seasons.
Now we get to go to Kansas City. Its
going to be some grind-it-out baseball,
Rasmus said. We have to come in there
the way we came in tonight. Its going to
be fun.
In a matchup of two teams that surprised many by building big division
leads before wasting them late, the
upstart Astros, just two years removed
from a 111-loss season, looked the more
comfortable team in the October limelight.
They clowned around during pregame
introductions, then stayed loose the
whole game.
The Yankees lost six of seven to close
the regular season. And despite all the

time this season.
The AL Cy Young Award contender held
the Yankees scoreless for 16 innings in
two regular-season starts. On this much
bigger stage, the lefty was just as confounding, dropping his slider and twoseam fastball seemingly wherever he
wanted in striking out seven as nearly all
his teammates and coaches stood along
the dugout railing for every pitch.
When he gave up two singles in the
sixth bringing the crowd to its feet
with Alex Rodriguez stepping into the
batters box manager A.J. Hinch took
a walk to the mound to give Keuchel a
breather. Keuchel responded by getting
A-Rod to fly out lazily to center field for
his final out.
Keuchel is the first starter with a scoreless postseason start on three days rest
since Josh Beckett pitched a shutout for
the Marlins at Yankee Stadium in the
clinching Game 6 of the 2003 World
Series.
Tanaka struggled with the long ball all
season, giving up 25 homers in 24 starts
this year. He only allowed two more hits
in five innings but matched a season
high with three walks. He struck out
three.

Carreon. The 5-10 sophomore totaled six match
blocks, all of which came in the opening three sets.
Theyve got a couple great outside hitters and they
respect the block, Javellana said. So they found out
where she was and went around her.
In Game 3, everything went haywire. Both teams
subbed in new liberos, with San Mateo turning to
senior Jessica Kamelamela and Westmoor opting to
utilize senior Janet Hu.
Hu is typically a defensive specialist, but has
played sparingly over the past week while battling a
wrist injury. She and senior Christy Tam put on a
defensive show in Game 3 though.
Tam produced the gem that turned the tide for the
Rams in the third set though. With Westmoor clinging to a 7-5 lead, the back row hit a bump set to a
vacated left side. But before the ball fell near net, Tam
dove in with a bump set over the net that found oor
for the point.
I was surprised, because Ive never really done that
before, Tam said.
Westmoor utilized an array of front-row attackers,
getting a team-high eight kills from senior Giselle
Mahinay. The Rams tallest player is 5-8 junior
Natalia Abukhader. The teams lack of stature leaves
the front row without a prototypical terminator. But
the Rams make up for it with outstanding back-row
defense and tenacious passing a combination that
nearly won the day.
We were kind of disappointed, but we were just
really proud of each other, Tam said. We just kept
ghting until the end.
Tam is one of the many in the front-row mix for
Westmoor. The fourth-year varsity senior had four
kills and 1 1/2 blocks. Christina Chin and had ve
kills and one block. Dahlia Urrutia had ve kills and
1 1/2 blocks. Abukhader also had ve kills.
With us, I try to match up lineups, Westmoor head
coach Rex Mauga-Head said. Everybody who plays
front row can play any position. We dont have a
dominant middle. So everybody gets to play a little
bit of everything.
Javellana said he expected a gritty matchup with
Westmoor. In his rst year as San Mateos varsity head
coach, Javellana previously served two years as a
frosh-soph assistant at Hillsdale in 2012 and 13. He
said he remembered Westmoor as having a reputation
for being one of the best defensive teams in the league.
So San Mateo prepared specically for the Rams
scrappy defense.
In practice, even if we got kills, wed throw in
another ball as if it got dug, Javellana said.
The dramatics are becoming San Mateos calling
card. Last Thursday in a pivotal win against
Woodside, the Bearcats led 1-0 and 2-1 in the match
before nally putting it away in Game 5. Tuesday, it
was more of the same. But alls well that ends well,
according to ORourke.
It just got to our heads and then we turned
around and we were losing, ORourke said. But its
OK. We came back.

Cornerback Amerson finds a job with Raiders

By Michael Wagaman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALAMEDA Veteran cornerback David

Amerson looks back on the Washington
Redskins decision to cut him less than a
month into the season and cant help but
smile.
A former second-round draft pick who lost
his starting job in training camp and was
inactive for Washingtons Week 2 win over
St. Louis, Amerson has bounced back fairly
well since being claimed off waivers by
Oakland in late September.
The 23-year-old defensive back was on
the field for all but two plays during last

weeks loss to Chicago

and is expected to make
his second consecutive
start Sunday when the
Raiders host Peyton
Manning and the Denver
Broncos.
In Amersons view, his
arrival in California was
David Amerson meant to be.
Its a fresh start and
Im doing everything in my power to make
it work, Amerson said Tuesday. As long as
Im making 100 percent effort to do everything to the best of my ability . it was
meant for me to come here.

49ers acquire LB Hodges from

Vikings for rookie, draft pick

That Amerson is starting in the NFLs

31st-ranked secondary after being drummed
out of Washington is a sign both of how
desperate the Raiders were for help and how
eager Amerson was to get his fledgling
career back on track.
Oakland is giving up more than 310 yards
per game through the air, much of them
coming from opposing tight ends who have
routinely gouged the Raiders for big plays
down the middle all season.
With free safety Nate Allen sidelined with
a knee injury, defensive coordinator Ken
Norton Jr. moved starting cornerback T.J.
Carrie into the middle of the defense two
weeks and started Neiko Thorpe at Carries

spot against Cleveland.

Amerson, who was still trying to learn
Oaklands defensive schemes, took only
half the defensive snaps against the Browns
but started in place of Thorpe at right cornerback and was in for 77 of the 79 plays
against the Bears.
Washington selected Amerson with the
51st overall draft pick in 2013. He started
eight games and showed some promise as a
rookie but the 6-foot-1, 205-pounder suffered a nightmarish 2014 season when he
was beaten for 10 touchdowns and allowed
opposing quarterbacks to complete nearly
74 percent of the passes thrown his way.

SHARKS
Continued from page 11

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. The Vikings have traded linebacker Gerald Hodges to the 49ers for rookie center Nick
Easton and a sixth-round draft pick.
Vikings general manager Rick
Spielman announced the deal Tuesday.
Hodges, a backup outside linebacker in
Minnesotas 4-3 scheme his first two seasons, was the starter this season at middle
linebacker in the base defense. Rookie
Eric Kendricks replaced him in the nickel
package, though. Kendricks has develGerald Hodges oped enough that the Vikings considered
Hodges expendable at a position of depth.
Easton was acquired by the 49ers in a deal with the Baltimore
Ravens last month. He was undrafted out of Harvard.

NASCAR brief

The Sharks were one of the leagues most successful regular-season teams during a 10-year playoff run that included
three trips to the Western Conference finals.
But San Jose won only one playoff series in former coach
Todd McLellans final four seasons. The Sharks blew a 3-0
series lead in the first round in 2014 to lose to Los Angeles
and then finished out of the playoffs last season.

Oh captain
The Sharks stripped Joe Thornton of his captaincy last
summer in response to a playoff collapse the previous season. San Jose then had Thornton, Patrick Marleau, Joe
Pavelski and Marc-Edouard Vlasic share the captains duties
last season. Pavelski emerged as the public leader last season and was named captain for this season. Thornton and
Logan Couture will be the alternates.
Im super happy for Pavs, Thornton said. We all think
that Pavs is our leader anyways, now its official.

buildings for visiting teams. That all changed last year
when the Sharks lost 17 homes games, their most since
1997-98. Eight straight home losses in February derailed
San Joses season a year ago and DeBoer has talked about reestablishing that home dominance.

Harvick celebration raises eyebrows among rivals

Between the pipes

Stepping up

CHARLOTTE, N.C. First, Kevin Harvick embarrassed

the field with a dominating victory at Dover. Then his victory celebration made some of his competitors wonder if
the reigning Sprint Cup champion had something to hide.
Many believe Harvick backed his car into the wall during
his celebratory burnout, creating damage to his Chevrolet.
Harvick on Tuesday denied any knowledge of hitting the
wall, but some wondered if the action was done to limit
NASCARs ability to inspect the car after the race.
Brad Keselowski said Tuesday it was absolutely common
for drivers to intentionally damage their cars after a race.

The Sharks moved on from starting goalie Antti Niemi

after five seasons, trading him to Dallas before he became
an unrestricted free agent. San Jose then dealt a first-round
pick and a prospect to Boston for former Kings backup
Martin Jones. San Jose also gave Jones a three-year, $9
million contract as a sign they believe he can be a full-time
goalie after starting just 29 games as Jonathan Quicks
backup in Los Angeles the past two seasons.

While players like Pavelski, Thornton, Brent Burns and

Couture played at their usual high standards for most of last
season, many of the younger players San Jose was counting
on failed to take that step forward. Tomas Hertl scored two
fewer goals than he did in 2013-14 despite playing 45 more
games last season, Matt Nieto failed to build on a 10-goal
season as a rookie and Justin Braun regressed after forming
a shutdown defensive pair with Vlasic the previous year. Big
years from that trio would go a long way in getting San Jose
back to the postseason.

The Sharks were counting on a boost from Raffi Torres,

the past two years because of knee injuries. But an illegal hit
to the head of Anaheims Jakob Silfverberg in the final preseason game led to a 41-game suspension for Torres. With his
long history of suspensions, it will be hard for the Sharks to
count on Torres even when he does return in January.

E-CIGS
Continued from page 1
protect our citizens from the health hazards
presented by secondhand smoke. Involuntary
exposure to known toxins and carcinogens
from secondhand smoke is unacceptable,
especially for children. While I respect an
individuals right to smoke, that right should
not result in negative and dangerous health
consequences for others, Mayor Maureen
Freschet wrote in an email. I am particularly thrilled that San Mateo will be a trendsetter in regulating the sale of e-cigarettes.
Although e-cigarettes have been touted by
the industry as a safer alternative to traditional cigarettes, the city is considering
changing its tobacco retailer permit to
include nicotine products meaning sellers
of e-cigarettes or vapor products would be
required to maintain a retailer permit issued
by the countys Environmental Health
Division. For retailers who sell both, only
one permit would be required.
While the countys Board of Supervisors
enacted a similar requirement, it only applies
to retailers in unincorporated portions of San
Mateo County. Should San Mateo follow
suit, retailers who sell either traditional or
electronic cigarette products within the city
would be also subject to the $130 permit that
must be renewed annually.
San Mateo Police Chief Susan Manheimer
said smoking e-cigarettes is the number one
behavioral violation amongst middle school

students and protecting youth from exposure

to nicotine products is paramount.
If the council passes the permit requirement, it would provide a mechanism for the
city to gather data about the number of sellers and consider further restrictions such as
not allowing certain advertisements or prohibiting e-cigarettes from being sold within a
certain distance of a school.
Although tobacco retailers are already prohibited from certain practices, those who sell
nicotine or vapor products are not bound the
same laws, Manheimer said.
For e-cigs, the problem was we couldnt
regulate them because the state is well
behind and hasnt classified e-cigs as tobacco or smoking, Manheimer said. We see
them proliferating and theyre popping up in
storefronts, at head shops, theyre popping
up all over almost totally unregulated.
Legislative efforts to regulate e-cigarettes
as tobacco products have stalled in recent
years. This session, state Sen. Mark Leno, DSan Francisco, was forced to withdraw his
proposal when the key provision of his bill
classifying e-cigarettes as tobacco products was gutted in a committee in July.
State Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo, also
sought legislation to deter e-cigarettes from
being marketed to minors, but his effort also
stalled.
To make headway in the near future, it
appears individual cities may need to step up
by enacting their own provisions.
The San Mateo City Council must again
vote to approve the expansion of the tobacco
retailer permit and, if approved, Manheimer
said her department would begin first con-

ducting outreach to retailers.

Eventually, the permit requirement could
provide critical data about how, where and to
who e-cigarettes are being sold in San
Mateo, Manheimer said.
It allows us to ensure [retailers] are complying with all of those [permit] limitations
and wed be able to do sting operations to
make sure theyre not selling to youth,

on this. No other city besides the county
have umbrellaed e-cigs and vapes under the

The council showed unanimous support
for the changes particularly as brightly colored signs and candy-flavored liquid nicotine
seems to be targeted toward children.
I am particularly concerned about e-cigs
and vaping. Because I really think its tempting for young people in particular, that somehow its not really cigarettes, Deputy Mayor
Jack Matthews said according to a video of
Mondays meeting. But the fact is theres
nicotine involved, which is habit forming

and I cant imagine why it would be good for

you. So Id like to see more restriction on
this to protect youth.
While no other city in the county restricts
where either tobacco or nicotine products
can be sold for example within a certain
distance from a school the council is moving San Mateo toward progressively cracking down on e-cigarette sales.
Freschet noted theres significant evidence
e-cigarettes are a gateway to smoking and
other substance abuse. Instituting controls on
access to e-cigarettes, and the eventual
restriction on the number of e-cigarette
establishments, especially their proximity to
schools, will help protect our children from
advertising intended to lure them into using
these dangerous tobacco products.
The City Council is scheduled to vote a
second time on the tobacco retailer permit
Nov. 2. Visit cityofsanmateo.org for more
information about the new smoking prohibitions and proposed permit change.

Bittmans kitchen matrix helps cooks get creative

By Michelle Locke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BERKELEY Mark Bittman has an exponential theory of cooking: If you can cook one
dish, you can cook thousands.
And his latest cookbook, Kitchen Matrix,
aims to help home cooks unlock that potential.
But he does it minus much of the usual cookbook fodder. You wont find chatty anecdotes
or painstaking instructions spelling out every
twist and turn of a recipe. You will get multiple
and inventive riffs on single ingredients, as well
as classic techniques presented as mix-and-

LIGHTS
Continued from page 1
$8 million to install permanent lights at fields
on the campuses of Aragon, San Mateo,
Hillsdale, Capuchino and Mills high schools.
Officials claim the lights are required, in
part, to grant student athletes more schedule
flexibility while balancing a full load of academics, but some neighbors living near district campuses are concerned about the
adverse affects the lights might have on their
quality of life.
Phil Banda said he and a group of neighbors
living near Hillsdale High School oppose the
initiative, as they are afraid the lights will
invite an influx of traffic, parking congestion,
noise and light pollution and misbehavior into
their neighborhood during sporting events
held at night.
Though district officials have pledged to try
to mitigate the variety of concerns neighbors
have expressed during previous public discussions of the light installation, Banda said he
doubts their commitment or ability.
Hillsdale High School is surrounded on all
sides by housing, he said. The problems to
the Hillsdale neighborhood will continue to be
disruptive.

match grids.
Looking for Buffalo
wings? Theyre here, but in
the form of a master recipe
for marinated and grilled
wings followed by a dozen
variations ranging from
Korean-style to chipotlelime. Other dishes get the
Mark Bittman recipe generator treatment. For instance, a page
on stuffed grape leaves lays out techniques for
dealing with the leaves, then lists the fillings,
grains and seasonings for assembling as the

reader sees fit. Which is to say the beautifully

photographed and designed book which
comes out in October embraces a bold, fresh
way to share recipes.
Bittman, whose previous books include the
comprehensive How to Cook Everything,
developed his matrix-style recipes during his
five-year stint writing an opinion column on
food for The New York Times Magazine. The
column gave him space to tackle food as it
moved him, sometimes writing about issues
such as soda taxes, sometimes devising new
recipes.
He recently announced he is stepping away

from that gig to take a central role at a San

Francisco Bay area start-up where his new job
involves making it easier for people to eat
more plants, he wrote in his farewell column
on Sept. 12.
Though the matrix is relatively new, Bittman
points out that the essential approach learn a
technique, then translate that to other ingredients dates back to his first cookbook, Fish.
Ive always had this philosophy that if you
could cook one dish you could cook 10, and if
you could cook 10 you could cook 10,000,
because everything spins off everything else,
he said in a recent telephone interview.

Board President Marc Friedman though

claimed the district is committed to working
with neighborhood residents on addressing
their concerns.
There will always be some people who
live right near the school who will be disappointed, he said. You are not going to please
everyone. But a vast majority of the residents
of the cities impacted would be for lights.
Burlingame High School is the only campus
in the district which does have field lights.
Lights were recently installed throughout the
Sequoia Union High School District, though
the project was met by community opposition
surrounding some campuses.
The South San Francisco Unified School
District is currently considering installing
lights at the football field on the campus of El
Camino High School.
Friedman said installing the lights will
allow the district to start school later, which
studies show as better for student health,
because officials will no longer be faced with
building a bell schedule restricted by limited
natural light hours in the winter months.
He said students are currently required start
class at 8 a.m. because there are no field lights
that allow student athletes to practice at night,
so classes have to end earlier in the afternoon
to accommodate shorter daylight hours.
But should the lights be installed, classes
could begin 30 minutes later, because students

would be able to practice later in the evening.

Student athletes currently have a schedule
that is affected by their need to attend practices and games, which can periodically result
in them leaving class early, said Friedman.
Our students could start later and have a
full academic program without having to miss
class when playing winter athletics, he said.
Banda though said the school district should
not adversely affect the lifestyle of residents
living near the schools in the name of high
school athletics.
They should take pride that they dont
have to succumb to Friday night football
mania, he said.
Should the district approve installing the
lights, the project would feature modern technology designed mitigate the way the surrounding neighborhood would be affected,
said Friedman.
Officials would also be willing to consider
limiting the use of the public announcing system at the fields to only certain times of the
year, said Friedman, in an effort to address
concerns raised during previous discussions
of the field lights project.
Banda though said he is skeptical the issues
he has raised could be addressed through use
of modern technology.
The Hillsdale problem will not be relieved
by high-tech features and the trustees appear
to not recognize that, he said.

Friedman though said he hopes officials

will be able to work with neighborhood residents to address their concerns.
Were trying to make it a win-win for
everyone as much as possible, he said. I
know some neighbors feel they cant get their
win, but well try to give them something they
see as a win.
Also at the meeting, the board will bring
back a discussion of a proposal to build
affordable teacher housing on the Crestmoor
High School campus in San Bruno.
The board had addressed the issue on
Thursday, Sept. 24, but postponed it amidst
concerns the community was not properly
notified of the housing proposal.
The teacher housing proposal is part of a
larger facilities shuffle, which is slated to
move Peninsula High School, the districts
continuation program from the Crestmoor
campus onto property owned by the San
Mateo County Office of Education on Rollins
Road in Burlingame.
The San Mateo Union High School District
Board of Trustees meets 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct.
8, in the San Mateo Adult School, 789 Poplar
Ave.

Sadly, no recipe for pureed

bass in Vitamix cookbook
W

hen you speak to Jodi Berg, you

find yourself hoping shell channel a little bit of Dan Aykroyd.
After all, shes the fourth generation to head
her familys Vitamix company, maker of those
super powered blenders prized by home cooks
and professional chefs alike for their ability to
grind and puree nearly anything into smoothie goodness. Because thats the same blender
that inspired the now iconic 1976 Saturday
Night Live skit in which Aykroyd proselytized infomercial-style about the wonders of
something called a Bass-O-Matic.
Aykroyd made comic history when he
dropped a whole raw fish into a blender, then
slurped up the resulting seafood smoothie.
And you want just a little of that to come
through in Berg.
But heres the punchline. In an almost tragic case of pop culture absenteeism, Berg not
only hadnt seen the skit, shed never even
heard of it.
Which is why we needed to halt the interview and get her to a web browser.
I have never seen that. Oh my god! she
shouted, laughing loudly. But I have to tell
you, I have seen our infomercial and it clearly is a playoff from my grandfathers infomercial (from the 40s).
Which the rest of us realized a few decades
ago. But just as well. This is a period of firsts
for Berg, who has just written The Vitamix
Cookbook, the companys first retail cookbook tied to its product (previous recipe collections have been booklets included with the
purchase of a blender), which was launched in
1921. Sure, the book isnt much use unless

youve already paid the

(hefty) price of admission by purchasing a
Vitamix. But people
who do tend to love
them.
And the demographics behind those people
have changed over the
years. Forty or 50 years
ago, the Vitamix held
sway mostly over natural foods advocates.
They loved the fact that
as Aykroyd so wonderfully demonstrated
the blender could pulverize the whole
food, no peeling, pitting or in the case of
bass scaling needed. Less waste, more
nutrition.
But as Americans notion of health has
broadened beyond a brown rice and patchouli
philosophy, so has the interest in the Vitamix,
said Berg. A decade or so ago, if you asked
people why they ate so-called health foods,
most said it was good for the animals or the
planet. All of the sudden about 12 years ago
people starting talking about how it was also
better for me, she said.
Thats around the same time Vitamix began
embracing retail rather than just direct sales
and worked to raise the profile of the brand.
We need to be out where people are going to
be making these decisions (about healthy eating). We need to be a resource for these people as they decide what sort of lifestyle they
want to lead.
So how powerful is a Vitamix? Powerful

on high and walk away for 5 or so minutes.
When you come back, it will not only have

ALIBABA
Continued from page 1

Comment on
or share this story at
www.smdailyjournal.com

Rudman & Dowd LLP on behalf of

California investor Gary Buelow.
The company was warned just two
months before its touted U.S. IPO by
Chinese officials that it was engaged in
illegal behaviors such as allowing rampant sale of counterfeit goods, restricted
weapons sold on its platform, staffers
taking bribes and ignoring that some of
its vendors faked transactions to make
sales appear higher, according to the
suit.
A spokesman said the company was
reviewing the lawsuit and Alibaba
believes that the claims asserted in the
recently filed litigation are without merit
and intends to defend itself vigorously,
However, according to the suit, issues
surrounding the sale of counterfeit
goods on Alibabas site Taobao were
well documented by Chinas State
Administration for Industry and
Commerce, or SAIC, in a report that
should have been disclosed to the U.S.
Securities Exchange Commission.
Knockoffs of brand-name merchandise allegedly sold through the e-commerce companys Taobao have also
incited recent complaints across the
country.
On Monday, the U.S. trade group
American Apparel & Footwear
Association called for authorities to
intervene. The AAFA urged Taobao be
placed on the Office of the U.S. Trade
Representatives Notorious Markets
list defined as marketplaces that facilitate substantial copyright piracy and
trademark counterfeiting, according to
an AAFA press release.
In the 2013 and 2014 reports, USTR
continued to urge Taobao and Alibaba to
work with the apparel and footwear

industry our concerns have not been

addressed. Counterfeits remain rampant
on Taobao and are often found on other
Alibaba sites, according to the AAFA
release, which noted Taobao was previously deemed a notorious marketplace
until 2012.
In May, the parent company of luxury
brands like Gucci also filed a federal
lawsuit in New York alleging Alibaba
facilitated and encouraged the sale of
counterfeit products the publicity of
which preceded significant drops in the
companys stock value, according to the
suit.
The California class action lawsuit
cites several media and regulatory
reports such as the SAIC concluding
nearly 63 percent of a sampling of products sold on Taobao and other e-commerce platforms were counterfeit; as
well as Alibabas Vice President Yu
Weimin allegedly telling Chinese media
in 2013 that about 17 percent of the merchants on Taobao had faked 500 million
transactions worth nearly $16 billion
a practice called brushing whereby
fake customers are created to inflate
sales.
Based on the report from Chinas own
commerce regulators and following coverage of the alleged illegal business
practices, the California lawsuit claims
investors like Buelow and others werent
given fair warning of the risks before
purchasing Alibaba stock.
Alibabas Sept. 19, 2014, IPO at $68
per share was extremely lucrative for the
company having raised $25 billion.
When the truth of defendants misrepresentations and omissions became
known the price of Alibaba shares suffered sharp declines, according to the

ENERGY

with a board made up of either elected

city officials or appointees. The goal is
to have it formed by March or April.
Im incredibly pleased with the
progress since the first conversation. It
seemed like a daunting task at first,
Pine said at the meeting.
City officials are keen to the idea, he
said.
Theres a tremendous degree of
enthusiasm. Its becoming real, Pine
said.
One of the best benefits of the JPA is
that it will have local control over
energy purchases.
The renewable energy will be delivered over Pacific Gas and Electric lines.
Local International Brotherhood of
Electrical Workers 1245 supports the
JPA purchasing 100 percent renewable
energy through the program, spokesman
Landis Marttila told the board Tuesday.
The county has been looking at three
scenarios to purchase renewable energy
at either 35 percent, 50 percent or 100
percent.

Continued from page 1

The idea is to dramatically reduce the
countys carbon footprint by releasing
less greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.
Climate change is the challenge of
our lifetime and I think its a great idea
to bring it to the county, Supervisor
Don Horsley said at the board meeting.
A JPA agreement is expected to be in
place by the end of winter 2016 and the
tentative plan is to start purchasing
renewable energy next summer.
Supervisor Dave Pine brought the proposal to the board in December and the
newly-formed Office of Sustainability,
directed by Jim Eggemeyer, has been
working on the first phase of the proposal since.
The second phase includes forming
the JPA, which would be a nonprofit

suit. By September 24, 2015, Alibaba

shares traded below $60 per share, a
decline of over 50 percent from the $120
per share high. All told, investor suffered
billions of dollars in losses.
In August, Alibaba announced it
would buy back up to $4 billion worth of
U.S. stock shares over the next two years
after the company reported its slowest
quarterly revenue growth in years.
The suit further alleges Alibaba violated the U.S. Securities Act by not disclosing issues prior to its IPO including the investigation by Chinese regulators the SAIC, which was threatening to
fine the company 1 percent of daily sales
if it didnt strengthen its policies to prevent illegal activities.
Alibaba was then already the subject
of administrative law enforcement
action for facilitating the rampant
sale of counterfeit goods and restricted
or illegal weapons, accepting bribes
from merchants in exchange for
improved search rankings and advertising results, consciously disregarding
fake transactions and thereby allowing
the false inflation reported sales and volume, and obviously anticompetitive
behavior such as forbidding merchants
from participating in rival platform promotions, all of which created imminent
and material risk to its business operations, and which likely would have a
material effect on its revenue, income
and share price, according to the suit.
The Buelow lawsuit, which could be
amended should other investors join as
plaintiffs, is scheduled for a complex
case status conference in San Mateo
County Superior Court in December. An
attorney representing Buelow said he
wouldnt comment on pending litigation.

The 100 percent scenario means zero

emissions were generated during energy
production.
Customers in the county who buy their
power from companies such as
SolarCity will not be affected by the proposal.
There are currently three aggregation
programs operating in the state including Marin Clean Energy and Sonoma
Clean Energy. A third, Lancaster Choice
Energy in Los Angeles County just started.
Community Choice Aggregation
allows a local government, or group of
local governments, to pool the electricity demand of their residential, business
and municipal accounts to purchase or
develop power on their behalf.
The program could also lead to local
job creation in the clean energy sector.
The rates for renewable energy in
most instances are lower than or competitive with PG&E rates depending on
the percentage being purchased.
Depending on the route the JPA takes,
customers will have a choice
to purchase a mix of energy or
100 percent renewable energy.
The biggest risk of the clean
energy program is the uncertainty in rate prices and optout rate of customers.
If a city joins the JPA, residents in the city will have to
opt out of the program if they
want to stick with PG&E. If
they do not opt out, then they
will be delivered renewable
energy from the sources from
which the JPA buys.
While all current CCEs in
California offer electricity
rates lower than the utility,
there is no guarantee of what
future electricity prices may
be, according to the Office of
Sustainability.
Workshops and an extensive
public outreach campaign are
planned in the coming months
to introduce the concept to the
general public.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Roberta Babcock a/k/a
Roberta F. Babcock
Case Number: 125965
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of: Roberta Babcock a/k/a
Roberta F. Babcock. A Petition for Probate has been filed by Robert Babcock
in the Superior Court of California, County of San Mateo. The Petition for Probate requests that Robert Babcock be
appointed as personal representative to
administer the estate of the decedent.
The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: Oct 26, 2015 at
9:00 a.m., Department 28, Superior
Court of California, County of San Mateo,
400 County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063.
If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section
9052 of the California Probate Code.
Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-

tice form is available from the court clerk.

Palestinian leader appeals for calm

By Josef Federman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

JERUSALEM Palestinian President

Mahmoud Abbas called Tuesday for calm after
several weeks of heightened unrest with Israel,
saying his people had no interest in any further
escalation and urging renewed dialogue.
The comments marked the Palestinian
leaders strongest attempt yet to restore calm
after the worst outbreak of fighting in months,
and came as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu vowed to take even tougher measures to quell the violence.
The clashes erupted three weeks ago at the
start of the Jewish new year and have turned
more violent in recent days. Four Israelis were
killed last week in shooting and stabbing
attacks in Jerusalem and the West Bank, while
Israeli forces have killed four Palestinians,
including a 13-year-old boy, amid violent
protests.
Both Abbas and Netanyahu are dealing with
precarious domestic situations as they try to
find a way out of the crisis.
Netanyahu is under heavy pressure, particu-

larly from hard-liners in his

governing coalition, to
respond with a tough
crackdown. Abbas, fed up
with years of diplomatic
paralysis and unpopular
with his public, does not
want to appear to be caving
in to Israeli pressure. Yet
neither man has an interest
Mahmoud
in seeing the violence spin
Abbas
out of control.
Speaking to senior officials of the Palestine Liberation Organization in
the West Bank city of Ramallah, Abbas said he
has told the Israelis that the Palestinians dont
want military and security escalations. He
said the message had been delivered to
Palestinian security forces and activists but
added that, at the same time, we will protect
ourselves.
Abbas also said he was ready to renew dialogue with Israel, a topic that could come up
during a gathering of international Mideast
envoys from the U.S., Europe, Russia and the
United Nations in Jerusalem on Oct. 14.

Two scientists win Nobel Prize for key

discoveries about subatomic particles
By Karl Ritter and Malcolm Ritter
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

STOCKHOLM Two scientists

won the Nobel Prize in physics
Tuesday for key discoveries about a
cosmic particle that whizzes through
space at nearly the speed of light, passing easily through Earth and even your
body.
Takaaki Kajita of Japan and Arthur
McDonald of Canada were honored for
showing that these tiny particles, called
neutrinos, have mass. Thats the quality
we typically experience as weight.
The discovery has changed our
understanding of the innermost workings of matter and can prove crucial to
our view of the universe, the Royal
Swedish Academy of Sciences said in
awarding the prize.
The work dispelled the long-held

notion that neutrinos

had no mass.
Neutrinos come in
three types, or flavors, and what the
scientists actually
showed is that neutrinos spontaneously
shift between types.
Takaaki Kajita That in turn means
they must have
mass.
Kajita, 56, is director of the Institute
for Cosmic Ray Research and professor
at the University of Tokyo. McDonald,
72, is a professor emeritus at Queens
University in Kingston, Ontario.
McDonald
told
reporters
in
Stockholm by phone that the discovery
helped scientists fit neutrinos into theories of fundamental physics.
Kajita, who initially told a news con-

ference at his university that my

mind has gone completely blank. I dont
know what to say,
went on to stress that
many people had
contributed to his
work.
The
universe
Arthur
where we live in is
McDonald
still
full
of
unknowns, he said. A major discovery cannot be achieved in a day or two.
It takes a lot of people and a long time.
The existence of neutrinos was first
proven in 1956. They come from a variety of sources in the cosmos, on Earth
and in Earths atmosphere. Most that
reach Earth were created by nuclear
reactions inside the sun. Trillions pass
through your body every second.
