The concert was called off last year due to campus construction. There are still plenty of family activities, however, ranging from the Redwood City Fourth of July parade to a pig scramble at the Woodside Junior Rodeo.

Author Barry Eisler serves up new thriller By Joshua Falk Special to The Almanac

Where age is just a number

n the opening pages of bestselling thriller novelist Barry Eislerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new book, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Inside Out,â&#x20AC;? CIA officials scramble over the disappearance of 92 Agency waterboarding videotapes. Sound familiar? The was inspired by New York Times articles reporting on the destruction of 92 CIA interrogation tapes in 2005. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the most political book Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve written,â&#x20AC;? Mr. Eisler said of his latest release, a sequel to his 2009 New York Times bestseller â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fault Line.â&#x20AC;? Mr. Eisler, a Menlo Park resident, will speak about the new book at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, June 29, at Keplerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Books, 1010 El Camino Real in Menlo Park. The book, his ninth, is due to arrive in bookstores the same day.

In the new book, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fault Lineâ&#x20AC;? protagonist Ben Treven is charged with finding and eliminating a rogue colPhoto by Hank Shiffman league who Barry Eisler has stolen the CIA tapes in order to blackmail the U.S. government. Although the story is the work of Mr. Eislerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s imagination, he considers it â&#x20AC;&#x153;a fictional explanation for what has been reported in the real world.â&#x20AC;? In fact, the novelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s original manuscript included more than 80 footnotes that cited news articles detailing the factual events that form the storyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s backbone. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If the things in the thriller couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really have happened,â&#x20AC;? he said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;then for me the thrill starts

to evaporate.â&#x20AC;? Mr. Eisler, a Cornell-trained lawyer turned CIA covert operative turned thriller writer, prizes himself on his penchant for detail. He visits the locations he depicts in his books to make sure he portrays them accurately; he fashions his characters based on interviews with experts and his experiences as a covert operative with the CIA; and he looks to the headlines for inspiration while crafting his plots. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m drawn to thrillers â&#x20AC;&#x201D; both as a reader and a writer â&#x20AC;&#x201D; that are as accurate as possible,â&#x20AC;? he said. Mr. Eisler, who maintains his own news and politics blog, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heart of the Matter,â&#x20AC;? dedicates â&#x20AC;&#x153;Inside Outâ&#x20AC;? to the bloggers. For each copy of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Inside Outâ&#x20AC;? ordered from Keplerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s before or during his June 29 event, Mr. Eisler said he will donate $5 to AlterNet, an independent, progressive news service. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The blogosphere, I find, has much more of a devotion to getting to the truth,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The information I come across in the blogosphere and write about in my own blog ends up forming the basis for my novels.â&#x20AC;? Other book tour appearances double as fundraisers for Firedoglake, GRITtv, and Truthout, also independent, progressive news sources. Mr. Eisler is distrustful of what he calls â&#x20AC;&#x153;establishment mediaâ&#x20AC;?: The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Foreign Policy and Foreign Affairs. But he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want anyone dismissing him as just another radical. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The mainstream enslaves itself to the government by permitting government sources anonymity,â&#x20AC;? Mr. Eisler said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;not only without good reason, but in fact in violation of the standards of integrity set by the newspapers in question.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m pretty political,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why I read so much, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why I blog myself.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of what the new book is about is the way the government manipulates the mainstream media so that the mainstream media essentially launders government propaganda,â&#x20AC;? Mr. Eisler said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everything thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bad for America and good for thriller writers is in the book.â&#x20AC;? Although his writing has gotten more political since his first novel â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rain Fall,â&#x20AC;? Mr. Eisler stresses that the purpose of his novels is still to entertain. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I want to make an overt political argument, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what my blog is for,â&#x20AC;? Mr. Eisler said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The main purpose of my novels has always been to entertain,â&#x20AC;? Mr. Eisler added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re thrillers. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not thrilled, I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t done my job.â&#x20AC;? A

Menlo Park Legends makes its move By Michael Abramson Special to The Almanac

espite only having one full year under its belt, the Menlo Park Legends semipro baseball team is not curbing its expectations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to win league then go to Wichita and play for a national championship, simple as that,â&#x20AC;? said David Klein, the manager, starting catcher, and founder of the Legends, and a Menlo-Atherton High School grad. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think there is any reason we shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t win league.â&#x20AC;? The Legends are 11-4 so far, the most impressive victory a 2-1 nailbiter on the road against the San Luis Obispo Rattlers on June 21, a team Klein described as â&#x20AC;&#x153;our first real test.â&#x20AC;? The Legends gave up only four hits in the game and finished with Menlo-Atherton grad Corey Zirbes throwing three scoreless innings of one-hit ball.

Nevertheless, the Legends recently hit a bit of a bump in the road, dropping two games to the Santa Barbara Foresters on June 22 and 23 by scores of 5-3 and 6-3. The Foresters are the 2006 and 2008 National Baseball Congress national champs and except for 2002, the California Collegiate League champs every year since 1993. Still, the Legends put up 17 hits in the two games, and simply competing against one of the best semi-pro teams in the country speaks volumes. Playing in the Pacific-West Baseball League, the Legends compete against six other teams from around the Bay Area. The league is competitive, but Klein says: â&#x20AC;&#x153;This team is going to be playing for a long time and will keep going up every year. I expect to join the TriState League next year.â&#x20AC;? Despite the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s relative infancy

Is your addiction hurting anyone? T

compared to many other semi-pro teams, several high-profile players agreed to join this year. Ben Clowe, Jack Mosbacher, Kellen McColl, and Ryan Sakowski are all current players on the Stanford baseball team.

Joseph E.A. Sauer of Woodside died June 18 at the age of 92. Mr. Sauer was born in Oakland and raised in Chico. He gradu-

and likely several tournaments throughout the summer, as well. Charlie Peck will act as player/coach of the team, similar to David Kleinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s position with the baseball team. Klein does have a message for another local semi-pro team: â&#x20AC;&#x153;I really want to take on the Palo Alto Oaks, but they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to play us. They beat us last year, so Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a little vengeance for them. They have an open invitation to play us, anytime, anywhere.â&#x20AC;? A

ated from UC Berkeley in 1941, the same year he was married to Cecilia Welsh, also a UC Berkeley graduate. Mr. Sauer began his career in accounting at Pan American Airways. He later worked for Skinner and Joseph Sauer Hammond and obtained his CPA license. After a year in Bakersfield, he joined Barlow, Davis and Wood, where he became a partner. Through a series of mergers, he became retired partner of Deloitte. An Eagle Scout in his youth, Mr. Sauer loved the mountains. He backpacked and went fly-fishing on 38 trips to the High Sierras, Oregon and Washington, say family members. From Yosemite to Lassen Park, he and his family camped in or visited 17 national parks in the Western United States and Canada. He and his wife, Cecilia, traveled extensively, visiting Europe, China, Tibet, seven other Asian countries, as well as Canada, Alaska, the Caribbean, Hawaii, and Mexico. He was an avid bridge player, enjoying twice-weekly games. Mr. Sauer is survived by his children, Teresa (Teri) of Silverdale, Washington; Gregory of Orlando, Florida; Karen of Boston; and Paul of Woodside; plus seven grandchildren and four great-grandchildren. His wife of 60 years, Cecilia, died in 2002. Funeral services have been held.
