Twitter hack opens popups, causes havoc
NEW YORK — A new way to cause mischief quickly spread
through short-messaging service Twitter on Tuesday morning
before the site could fix the problem, as mysterious “tweets” of
blocked-out text propagated themselves and caused popup win-
dows to open.
Shortly before 10 a.m. Eastern time, (1400 GMT), Twitter
said on its “safety” feed on the site that the attack had been shut
down. It also said it does not believe that any user information
was compromised, rather, the “vast majority” of the breaches
were pranks or promotions.
The hack had been extra nefarious because the tweets acti-
vated without being clicked on — it was enough for Web
surfers to move their mouse cursors over them. But it only
affected visitors to Twitter.com.

DREAM Act dies with rejection of defense bill


WASHINGTON — The chance for hundreds of thousands of
young people to legally remain in the U.S. evaporated Tuesday
when Republicans blocked a defense spending bill in the Senate.
Democrats failed to get a single Republican to help them
reach the 60 votes needed to move forward on the defense bill
and attach the DREAM Act as an amendment. The vote was
56-43. Arkansas Democratic Sens. Blanche Lincoln and Mark
Pryor voted with Republicans. Majority Leader Harry Reid
also voted to block the bill in a procedural move that allows the
defense bill to be revived later.
The DREAM Act allows young people to become legal U.S.
residents after spending two years in college or the military. It
applies to people who were under 16 when they arrived in the
U.S., have been in the country at least five years and have a
diploma from a U.S. high school or the equivalent.

Top economic adviser to leave White House
WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama’s top eco-
nomic adviser, Lawrence Summers, plans to leave the White
House at the end of the year, a move that
comes as the administration struggles to
show an anxious public it’s making
progress on the economy.
While administration officials Tuesday
quickly sought to paint the announcement
as an expected development, Summers’
departure shakes up an economic team that
has been under fire for its handling of the
recovery. It’s also a team already in transi-

“While we have much work ahead to repair the damage
done by the recession, we are on a better path thanks in no
small measure to Larry’s wise counsel,” Obama said.

Top eBay e-commerce executive steps down


SAN FRANCISCO — One of eBay’s top executives is

ANNOUNCEMENT OF PRE-QUALIFICATION PROCECURES AND OPEN


DATES FOR ANNUAL PRE-QUALIFICATION

Notice is hereby given that on September 8, 2010 San Bruno Park School District determined
that all bidders on public works to be undertaken by the San Bruno Park School District must be
pre-qualified prior to submitting bids for public works. Bidders must hold either a valid “A” or
“B” California General Contractors License. No bid will be accepted from a Contractor that
has failed to comply with these requirements. If two or more business entities submit a bid on a
project as a Joint Venture, or expect to submit a bid as part of a Joint Venture, each entity within
the Joint Venture must be separately qualified to bid.

Future applications may be submitted on four times a year thereafter: (1) from January 1
through January 10; (2) from April 1 through April 10; (3) from July 1 through July 10; and Over the Hedge Over the Hedge Over the Hedge
(4) from October 1 through October 10. If the ending date falls on a Sunday, applications
will be due the next day no later then 12 noon.

Contractors who submit a complete pre-qualification package will be notified by first class mail
of their qualification status, such notice to be mailed no later than fifteen business days after the
final deadline date of each submission period. The San Bruno Park School District’s decision
will be based on objective evaluation criteria.
Pre-qualification approval will remain valid for one (1) calendar year from the date of notice of
qualification, except that the San Bruno Park School District reserves the right during that calen-
dar year to adjust, increase, limit, suspend or rescind the pre-qualification ratings based on sub-
sequently learned information and after giving notice of the proposed action to the Contractor
and an opportunity for a hearing consistent with the hearing procedures described below for ap-
pealing a pre-qualification determination.

To request pre-qualification packets contact District Construction Managers, Greystone West


Co., 19670 8th Street East, Sonoma CA 95476, 707-933-0624. The pre-qualification packages
should be submitted in a sealed envelope and marked “CONFIDENTIAL” to: Dr. David Hutt, 203 Public Notices 203 Public Notices 203 Public Notices
