Hayley Korman, a Wood-side resident and soon to be a junior at Cas-
tilleja High School, has an inop-erable cellphone. She is going to take her time replacing it, having recently learned how to live, and be happy, without it, she said. If that sounds unusual for a 15-year-old girl, perhaps it’s a consequence of her unusual six-week summer adventure she described to the Almanac in a recent interview. She and 10 other teens — five girls and six boys — from around the United States rode their bikes 3,000 miles, start-ing June 23 from a beach on an island off Savan-nah, Georgia. They wound through small towns in the Deep South, across the Mississippi River, up steep climbs and down steep descents in the Ozark Mountains of Missouri, across the Kansas flatland, up and over the Continental Divide in Colorado, past a canyon that is grand in Arizona, and through a downpour — includ-ing wading across what amount-ed to a river — in the Mojave desert. On the last night, they made camp one last time in the mountains overlooking the lights of Los Angeles. The next day, Aug. 3, it was on into the metropolis and a second splash in saltwater, this time at a beach in Santa Monica. Conversations with home were done via U.S. mail, by postcard for the riders and
through mail drops for the par-ents. The American Challenge, organized by the Massachusetts-based youth-adventure outfit Overland, did not allow social media devices. Did she miss them? “Honestly no. You learn how to be rid of your phone and your computer. You learn how to live without that,” Hayley said. “This trip really taught me to live in the moment. Life’s too short to want to be someplace else all the time.” The riders also chose to turn in their watches. “We just want-ed to be into what we were doing,” Hayley said. Hours passed quickly and weeks flew by, she said, but not the days. This was not your mother’s cross-country bike trip. There
were no support vans leapfrog-ging ahead to the night’s camping spot to prepare meals and tents. The kids, with two college-aged guides, carried all their gear on
their bikes. They broke camp and made camp, shopped for groceries every day, shared responsibilities and rode until they found a place to sleep: a campground, a backyard, a church yard. “There are a lot of churches throughout the South,” Hayley said. The riders depended on the kindness of strangers, she added, unaware of that phrase’s literary provenance in the Deep South. “Southern hospitality is no myth,” Hayley said. Residents of the small towns they visited — and they were all small towns; the route avoided cities — appeared to have close, strong
relationships among themselves and were “really welcoming,” she said. “Small communities were just that. They were com-munities. ... It’s a nice change of pace from what most of us are used to. It’s how the rest of the country lives. It’s a whole new world.” Twice a week, they were allowed to buy their meals, often at a fast food joint. On average days, they spent nine or 10 hours on their bikes, logged 85 miles and consumed 10,000 calories. After their longest day — 121.7 miles — they spent $260 at a Burger King, she recalled with a smile. “A really great group of peo-ple,” Hayley said. “Everybody was super hard working. Every-one was super committed to the

When Raychem was sold in 1999, it left behind about 40 acres of land
and groundwater contaminated with industrial chemicals on its Constitution Drive campus. The next company to occupy the property in Menlo Park spent seven years scrubbing the soil until toxin levels were acceptable
for commercial and industrial use, according to the state. That’s not clean enough for Facebook. According to the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC), the social networking company proposes to keep cleaning, even going so far as to have the dirty soil and the 11,400-square-foot cap installed over the contami-nated area hauled away for dis-
posed at a licensed facility. The toxins include polychlorinated biphenyls and other chemi-cals associated with electronics manufacturing. “We didn’t want there to be any question whatsoever about our interest in meeting the appro-priate standard,” said Facebook spokesman Tucker Bounds. A DTSC representative estimated that the proposed remediation
will cost $5.7 million. Once that’s finished, Facebook plans to knock down the existing structures to create a 440,000-square-foot “West Campus” at 312-314 Constitution Drive that can accommodate up to 2,800 employees in five two- to four-story buildings clustered around a courtyard, according

COMMUNITY MEETING: The California Department of Toxic Sub-stances Control will hold a community meeting Wednesday, Aug. 22, in Menlo Park on the cleanup plans for Facebook’s West Campus. The meet-ing starts at 6:30 p.m. in the Senior Center at 110 Terminal Ave. Public comment may be submitted until Sept. 6 to project manager Chip Grib-ble at [email protected] or 700 Heinz Avenue, Berkeley CA 94710.

CAN THE WRONG SUNGLASSES BE WORSE THAN NONE?
When selecting sunglasses, do not allow your-self to be misled into thinking that darker lenses necessarily filter out sunlight and protect your eyes better than lighter lenses. There are lighter sunglasses lenses that provide 100 percent UV protection. On the other hand, sunglasses that do not block 99 to 100 percent of the light can prove more harmful to eyes than not wearing sunglasses at all. The fact is that dark lenses make your pupils
dilate, which is the eyes’ response to allow in more light. If that light is not being properly filtered to block ultraviolet rays, it can inflict more damage. Therefore, be sure the sunglasses you choose block 99 to100 percent UV rays.
The message has gotten through that too much sun is bad for the skin. But the damage of ultra-violet rays is not limited to the skin — your eyes are also at risk. Whether you spend time at the beach or just drive or walk outdoors, it is impor-tant to protect your eyes by wearing sunglasses with UV ray protection. At MENLO OPTICAL, we offer a large selection of sunglasses for everyone’s taste and lifestyle. Please call us at 322-3900, or visit us at 1166 University Drive, on the corner of Oak Grove Avenue and University Drive.
P.S. Larger lenses and wraparound sunglasses with 99 to 100 percent UV protection provide the most benefit by covering more of the eyes and face.

A walker, a generator, com-puters and a gun were among the items stolen in a wave of property crimes in Menlo Park over the past several days that included seven burglaries and three cases of theft, according to police reports. Among the residential bur-glaries, the largest loss — $5,620 — involved a broken bedroom window and the theft of a laptop computer, diamond ring, plati-num ring and checkbook from a house on Hillview Avenue in a case reported Aug. 5. Two other home burglar-ies, both in the same block of Woodland Avenue, involved thefts of jewelry and electronic
gear on Aug. 7. In neither case did police report a value for the losses, but both involved entries through unlocked portals, in one case a window and in the other a garage door. Someone stole a generator val-ued at $1,200 from the bed of a truck after cutting a hole in the fence of a parking lot on Haven Avenue, according to a report for Aug. 6. In an Aug. 4 report of a com-mercial burglary on Bay Road, someone stole a wallet contain-ing $65 in cash from the Flood Park Ranger Station. Another wallet was stolen on Aug. 7 from an unlocked residence on Henderson Avenue. The report
did not include an estimate of losses. Someone stole two pairs of jeans and five tank tops in a package delivered to a house on McKendry Drive and reported on Aug. 5. In that same case, someone broke a side window of the house, but nothing was miss-ing from inside, police said. In three thefts reported on Aug. 4, 5 and 7, theifs stole a bicycle valued at $4,000 from a bike rack on a vehicle parked on Laurel Street, a handgun val-ued at $500 from an unlocked vehicle on Newbridge Street, and a walker from outside a residential back door on Crane Street, police said.
group. We learned how to live with other people and keep a positive attitude. ... Even when we didn’t want to be there, we all really wanted to be there.” She brought along four out-fits, a pair of flip-flops, a pair of bike shoes and two pairs of socks. “You really don’t need that much to get by,” she said. “Good friends and good vibes. You can be happy like that.” Happiness tempered by weath-
er. In many parts of the country, if it’s sticky, it’s summertime. “It was crazy hot in the South, and super humid, too,” Hayley said. “We’re so lucky to live here, with what we have.” And tempered by insects, particularly mosquitoes and gnats. Theirs is a simple demand, one that goes back millions of years: “Be still!” To which these riders replied, “Shoo!” A low-tech approach and not terribly effective, but preferable to a bug repellant that, once applied, became like a sticky second skin, Hayley
said. They showered about once a week. There were other animal sight-ings, but they lacked variety. “There are a lot of stray dogs in the South,” Hayley said, adding: “The South was full of armadillo carcasses (on the road). Lots of dead armadillos.” One resident told her she’d lived there 60 years and had never seen a live armadillo. Hayley is the daughter of Liz and Marty Korman. She has one younger brother and the family lives in Woodside’s western hills. A

Derby winnerJohn French, a trainer in Woodside, won the $10,000 International Hunter Derby on Aug. 9 during the Menlo Charity Horse Show in Atherton. Dr. Daryl Hoffman, left, of Atherton, presents the blue ribbon and award to Mr. French. This was the first International Hunter Derby held in Northern California. Dr. Hoffman sponsored the event, which presents the horse and rider with a faster, more challenging course than the standard hunt course. The jumps are more difficult and higher, and are placed to showcase the horse’s agility. Winners qualify for a national championship in 2013, and the winners of that qualify for international competitions.

In the 1954 movie “Briga-doon,” a rural Scottish vil-lage and its residents exist in
a never-never land, appearing for just one day every 100 years. Substitute a rural Woodside cor-ner at Highway 84 and Skyline Boulevard, a farm-ers’ market instead of a village, and a recent afternoon, and therein lies a local tale. On Wednesday, Aug. 1, between 3 and 7 p.m., for the first and so far only time, a small farmers’ market appeared in a parking lot shared by two businesses: the Mountain Terrace, where people celebrate events such as weddings, and Penelope’s Den, a craft store. The residents of Skylonda and a few passing cyclists wandered among seven or eight tables of fresh produce, homemade cheese, sunflowers and other goods, the efforts of
nearby artisans and farmers. They sold out, but a new sense of a Skylonda community had begun to insinuate itself, resi-dents said. The fact that it sold out “just goes to show that everybody is ready for it,” said Maggie Foard, a La Honda township resident,
cookbook author and chocolate maker who came up with the idea of the market. “This was just kind of little and sweet,” Skylonda resident Mary Jane Lyons told
the Almanac. “I’m a supporter of the farmers’ market and it’s gone. It’s just a shame because it was nice for the community to share fresh produce without having to drive down the hill.” Wednesday, Aug. 8, did indeed come and go without a reappearance of the market. The town had advised the market organizers that the conditional use permit for the
property did not permit out-door sales of any items. Will it return? Maybe on nearby emp-ty land in unincorporated San Mateo County, residents say, but not legally at its Woodside location until there’s a change to the town’s zoning code and to the use permit. “I think it’s going to happen,” Ms. Foard said after visiting Town Hall to talk with staff about the market’s future. The path forward goes through the
town’s planning department and the Planning Commission, and an effort is already under way. In a message to resident Lau-ra Diamondstone provided to the Almanac, Woodside Town Manager Kevin Bryant noted that the Town Council meets on every second and fourth Tuesday evening, the August recess excepted, and would wel-come comments from residents. The town has an obligation to
enforce the rules in the munici-pal code “as they are written,” he added. “I didn’t look into my condi-tional use permit before I OK’d it,” said property owner and Mountain Terrace partner Bish-er Khalas. “We don’t profit from it. ... Hopefully, they can figure out a way to do it. I’m not asking anyone to do anything outside the law. I think everybody involved would like to work something out.” A

Firefighters from the Wood-side Fire Protection District needed about 20 minutes
Aug. 6 to contain a woodland fire that burned some 600 square feet of vegetation in an upland Woodside neighborhood. Investigators are attributing the fire to a stray spark igniting natural gas after two men dig-ging a post hole with a gasoline-driven power auger accidentally struck and broke a residential gas line on Josselyn Lane near Kings Mountain Road at around 1:30 p.m. There were no injuries, only slight physical damage, and the residence was never threatened, Battalion Chief Jerry Nave told the Almanac. Firefighters remained on the scene for more than an hour to keep watch on a small f lare of burning gas from the severed
3/4-inch pipe while waiting for workers from Pacific Gas & Electric to arrive and secure the gas line. “It was safer for us to keep it burning so that we could see it and keep an eye on it,” Mr. Nave said. The situation could have been much worse had the property not been managed with fire-safe practices such as trimming shrubbery to prevent a fire from climbing into the treetops, he said. “Luckily, the homeowner (practiced) real good fuel man-agement,” Mr. Nave said. “The resident deserves a lot of cred-it.” The fire district sent 20 fire-fighters in the initial response after a 911 caller reported a house on fire, but scaled it back to eight after evaluating the situ-ation, Mr. Nave said.

Atherton voters will be asked whether they want to see permanent Little
League structures in Holbrook-Palmer Park, and if funding for a planned new Town Center should be restricted primarily to private donations. The City Council voted 3-2 on Aug. 7 to put the two measures on the November ballot, along with a measure asking whether a
new library should be built in the park — a measure the council approved at an earlier meeting in an attempt to quell the outcry that has arisen over the issue since the project was approved by the council last fall. Council members Elizabeth Lewis and Jerry Carlson on Aug. 7 voted against placing the latest measures on the ballot, saying
that, unlike the situation with the library plan, residents have not been concerned about the proposed projects, and haven’t “clamored” for a vote. But the council majority argued that since there’s an elec-tion in November that will include choosing two coun-cil members and deciding the library question, it would be reasonable to ask voters about two other projects that will have a major impact on the town.
City Attorney Bill Conners crafted language for both mea-sures, asking council members for suggestions to make the questions fit their purposes. But it was a representative of the Little League, Michael Haven, who suggested language that, with a few tweaks, passed muster with the council. On that issue, voters will be asked: “Should the town permit the Menlo-Atherton Little League to improve the base-ball field and sur-rounding areas at Holbrook-Palmer Park, including covered seating for spectators and players, an improved playing area for children, and new restrooms for all park users, using private funds only?” Mr. Haven told the council that the Little League organiza-tion is “pleased to let the voters decide” the question, noting that Holbrook-Palmer is “the public’s park.” He said the organization is gearing up to put before the voters a persuasive argument for the project, which would be paid for in full and maintained by Little League. The Town Center measure was approved after the ballot language’s emphasis was placed on how the center would be paid for, rather than whether the center would be built. All coun-cil members say they support replacing the cramped facilities, which don’t meet seismic, fire, or other building codes, but the council majority insisted on legally restricting the bulk of
the project’s funding to private contributions. “The issue isn’t shall we con-struct; it’s how it’s funded,” Mayor Bill Widmer said, insist-ing that he wouldn’t support any new taxes for the project. The approved ballot language
asks: “Should the town of Ather-ton primarily use private donations to construct and design a new Town Center? Other funding sources might include funds derived from building fees or future grant mon-
ey, but would not use general fund or parcel tax money.” Councilwoman Lewis, a lead figure on the Town Center Task Force, implored her colleagues not to put the measure on the ballot, asking repeatedly what purpose it would serve. Donors are at the ready to open up their wallets, she said, but the project is in its early planning stages and a ballot measure is “putting the cart before the horse.” Under current council direc-tion, “there’s no way that any taxpayer money ... can be spent on this project,” she said. But Councilwoman Kathy McKeithen noted that “councils come and go. Resolutions can be passed ... and changed.” Voter approval of the ballot measure would ensure that “this is indeed going to be paid for in private donations,” she said. “There’s no legitimate reason not to bind ourselves to that commitment.” A

At first glance, it looked like the Menlo Park Trans-portation Commission
— like others — was enjoying some time off during the sum-mer holiday season. The July 11 meeting was canceled; so was the Aug. 8 meeting. But it turns out the commis-sioners were ready and willing to work. City staff, however, failed to post the agendas as required by the Brown Act, the state’s open meeting law. The July agenda neglected to indicate that Commission Chair Ray Mueller would be participating via phone, as he was out of town. Because of
the oversight, he would not be allowed to participate at all and the commissioners opted to cancel the meeting, according to city transportation engineer Rene Baile. But then the August agenda failed to appear on time. The Brown Act states agendas must be posted 72 hours in advance of a regular meeting in a location freely accessible to the public. Sources attributed the second error to staff oversight. The commission will now hold a special meeting on Aug. 15 to catch up. Mr. Baile said that the meeting will incorporate items calendared for the July session. The agenda includes an update

A memorial service will be held at 2 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 19, at Ladera Church, 3300 Alpine Road in Portola Valley, for Lawrence “Larry” Jensen, who died July 26 at his Portola Valley home after a courageous battle with cancer. He was 78. Born in Portland, Oregon, Mr. Jensen graduated from Lincoln High School. Excel-ling in academ-ics and ath-letics, he was granted a Navy ROTC scholar-ship to attend Stanford Uni-versity, graduating with a bache-lor of arts degree in journalism. After serving in the Navy, he earned a juris doctorate degree from Harvard Law School. He married Helen Elliott in San Diego and the couple settled in Portola Valley in 1968.
During his 40-year career as a municipal bond attorney, he derived great satisfaction from seeing the results of his profes-sional work in the form of public works projects throughout Cali-fornia, say family members. His passions were books, traveling and sports, they say. An avid Stanford supporter, he enjoyed volunteer-ing at Stanford sporting events and reading the daily sports page. Mr. Jensen is survived by his son, Kurt Jensen; brothers Kent and Dan, sister Carolyn; and two grandsons. Donations in Mr. Jensen’s name made be made to the Red Cross or Palo Alto Medi-cal Foundation, 795 El Camino Real, Palo Alto, CA 94301.

After receiving a phone call reporting a suspicious person strolling around a house on Oakhurst Place on Aug. 9, Men-lo Park police decided to take a look. They watched as a teenage boy wearing dark clothing and car-rying a backpack emerged into the early afternoon sunshine from a yard further down the block. A check of the property revealed signs of a burglary, as did a search of the young man,
who was allegedly found with a stolen iPhone, black Guess watch, and Apple earphones and charger, police said. The 14-year-old East Palo Alto resident was booked into Hillcrest Juvenile Hall on sus-picion of burglary, according to police. Police ask that anyone with information regarding this case to call them at 330-6300.

Teen arrested for burglary
A girl at Willow Oaks Park reported that a man was shoot-ing video of her, according to Menlo Park police. A warning circulating on a neighborhood email list said the man was near the playground and dog park around 11 a.m. on Aug. 6, and asked one girl where she lived, saying he was taking a video of her dog. The park is next to an elementary school at Wil-low Road and Coleman Avenue.
Officers searched for the cam-eraman, described as an older white man with gray hair, about 6 feet tall, weighting about 200 pounds, and wearing red-and-white knee socks, but didn’t find him. The man reportedly left the park walking toward Wil-low Road, police spokesperson Nicole Acker said. Anyone with information can call police at 330-6300.

“It is an excellent way to get information out to people in my market sphere because it is an excellent newspaper. It carries area news and features that people in Woodside, Portola Valley and Atherton want to know about. When I list exceptional homes and estates, I want to get the word, and the pictures, out. The Almanac is a great way to do that.”
“The Almanac has been a trusted part of my Real Estate

“If I want a Best Seller, I advertise in the Almanac and the Weekly.” – Lyn Jason Cobb
As a Realtor serving Menlo Park, Palo Alto, Atherton, Portola Valley and Woodside, I do my utmost to provide extraordinary service to my clients. The Almanac and the Palo Alto Weekly is always where I advertise fi rst because I like the home delivery, editorial focus, and it is a great value. I have always had great results promoting open homes in the Palo Alto Weekly and The Almanac, and I also run in special publications like Spring and Fall Real Estate, Neighborhoods and Info Menlo because of the great coverage and online presence. I am also a big believer in the Palo Alto Weekly’s Open Home Guide, which is by far the most accurate and comprehensive. I’ve had many buyers bring in the guide to my ‘Open Homes’ to see what I have listed.”

997 All Other LegalsNOTICE OF TRUSTEE’S SALE Trustee Sale No. 11-01026-3 Loan No: 0040168148 APN 080-072-100-3 YOU ARE IN DEFAULT UNDER A DEED OF TRUST DATED March 31, 2004. UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDINGS AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. On October 24, 2012, at 01:00 PM, at the Marshall Street entrance to the Hall of Justice and Records, 400 County Center, Redwood City, CA, FIDELITY NATIONAL TITLE COMPANY, as the duly appointed Trustee, under and pursuant to the power of sale contained in that certain Deed of Trust Recorded on April 7, 2004, as Instrument No. 2004-064822 of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of San Mateo County, CA, executed by: YAN TING ZHANG, A SINGLE PERSON , as Trustor, in favor of Wells Fargo Home Mortgage, Inc., as Beneficiary, WILL SELL AT PUBLIC AUCTION TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER, in lawful money of the United States, all payable at the time of sale, that certain property situated in said County, California describing the land therein as: AS MORE FULLY DESCRIBED IN SAID DEED OF TRUST The property hereto-fore described is being sold “as is”. The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 270 EL NIDO ROAD, PORTOLA VALLEY, CA 94028 The undersigned Trustee dis-claims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other com-mon designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be made without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regard-ing title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining unpaid balance of
the obligations secured by and pursuant to the power of sale contained in that certain Deed of Trust (together with any modifications thereto). NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the exis-tence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, ben-eficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 714.730.2727 or visit this Internet Web site www.lpsasap.com, using the file number assigned to this case 11-01026-3. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the tele-phone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify post-ponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligations secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of this Notice of Trustee’s Sale is estimated to be $872,683.46 (Estimated), provided, however, prepay-ment premiums, accrued interest and advances will increase this figure prior to sale. Beneficiary’s bid at said sale may include all or part of said amount. In addition to cash, the Trustee will accept a cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the California Financial Code and authorized to do business in California, or other such funds as may be acceptable to the trustee. In the event tender other than cash is accepted, the Trustee may withhold the issuance of the Trustee’s Deed Upon Sale until funds become available to the payee or endorsee as a matter of right. The property offered for sale excludes all funds held on account by the property receiver, if applicable.
