Local vehicle fee hike on ballot
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Voters in the county are facing a
$10 vehicle registration fee on the
November ballot that will raise $6.7
million annually for 25 years to
fund countywide transportation pro-
grams and fix local roads.

November ballot to impose the fee

other than raising the sales tax.
If Half Moon Bay residents
approve the tax, the city would have
the highest sales tax in the county at
10.25 percent. Measure K would
expire after seven years, however.
“I want to stop the momentum of

Cleaver had endless
patience. When Beaver was late to an all-
important birthday party after falling in a
street that was being repaved, June never
raised her voice about his tarry mess and
his tardiness.
And in an era when corporal punish-
ment was still an approved parenting
technique, June would never have raised
her hand to her boys.
The closest she came to upbraiding her
kids was her trademark expression of
concern directed not at them, but to their
father: “Ward, I’m worried about the
Beaver.”
Then it was up to Ward, played by
Hugh Beaumont, to have a little man-to-
man talk with Beaver. And he did, with-
out fireworks.
As any kid viewer could tell, Ward was
upright, sensible, if somewhat starchy.
As a professional accountant, he was all
about maintaining order. He seemed to
be the ideal for middle-class manhood in
1950s America. Fortunately, no little boy
watching “Leave It to Beaver” let that
give them the willies.
Meanwhile, they knew it was June

Beaver gets their OK to buy the

By the end of the episode, Beaver’s
mom puts everything right.
The original “Leave It to Beaver”
series premiered in October 1957 and
aired through September 1963. A curious
thing: This glowing, picket-fenced vision
of Americana ended two months before
President John F. Kennedy was assassi-
nated.
An age of disillusionment had begun.
And in TV sitcoms, the perfect nuclear
family with the perfect stay-at-home
mom was an endangered species.
In its place, “All in the Family” with
addled doormat Edith Bunker came

moms tailor-made for a different world

Local scientist hooked on hula

By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Jo-Anne Hongo didn’t spend her time after
school in gymnastics or playing soccer like
most children.
She instead connected to her ancestors
through hula. It didn’t start with such cultural
experience. The 47-year-old scientific manag-
er for Genentech was simply joining her best
friend in a fun activity after school in fourth
grade. Now she’s celebrating her 15th year
with Patrick Makuankane’s award-winning
dance troupe Na Lei Hulu I Ka Wekiu. This
weekend, in honor of the group’s 25th
anniversary, the troupe began six performanc-
es at San Francisco’s Palace of Fine Arts.
Hongo didn’t start out aiming for big
stages. She grew up in San Francisco and
Daly City with Hawaiian roots. When her best
friend began dancing hula, Hongo joined.
“In fourth grade, a big driving force was my
friend,” she said. “No one else in my family
dances hula. ... She danced hula.”
The families, along with the girls, remain
friends. A couple years after starting classes,
Hongo performed in a small talent show at a
A weekly look at the people
who shape our community
school in San Francisco.
Hongo was hooked. Dancing became the
proverbial carrot for her parents who required
good grades from Hongo if she wanted to
continue with her beloved extracurricular
activity.
“Really — well, I can’t speak for what my
parents thought — I felt that they were just
very supportive of what I wanted to do as long
as I was continuing school,” Hongo said.
She didn’t let her parents down. But when it
came to choosing a college, Hongo opted for
San Francisco State University because it
would keep her with the same dance troupe.
While continuing to dance, Hongo earned a
clinical science degree
with a minor in chemistry
and a master’s in
immunology. She now
works at Genentech where
she met her husband Kurt.
The two live in Redwood
City with their dog
Butterbean.
Jo-Anne Hongo Being a scientist by
trade means people don’t
expect Hongo to be a hula dancer. Typically,
people want to know more but the real shock
factor is the schedule.
Hongo, like all the performers in Patrick
Makuankane’s troupe, are asked to join.
Joining is a commitment as the group prac-
tices six hours every Sunday. That time dedi-
cation increases closer to performances.
Hongo doesn’t mind the extra time, but
rather thinks of the 37-person troupe as a fam-
ily that works to master new routines and fin-
ish costumes together. She’s particularly still
amazed by Makuankane.
“The really amazing thing about Patrick is,
he has a way and a style about himself that
he’s always had that really drives us to that
commitment. He’s always motivated and
enthusiastic. We as dancers are quite spoiled.
Having danced with another group in my
younger years, I can reflect back and say ‘we
are really blessed to be dancing with him,’”
she said.
This year’s performance is a big deal,
Hongo explained. It allows the troupe to cele-
brate the time together and bring that passion
to the stage.
Performances are 8 p.m. Friday, Oct. 22
and Saturday, Oct. 23; 3 p.m. Sunday Oct. 24;
and a one-hour family matinee at noon Oct.
24 at the Palace of Fine Arts, Bay and Lyon

$35 to $40 or $10 for the family matinee.

Peeping nurse denied mental health treatment

By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The male nurse accused of setting
up a video camera in the bathroom
of a Redwood City hospital to sur-
reptitiously record those inside is
looking at up to a year in jail after a
judge denied him entry to the coun-
ty’s mental health court program.
Carlo Magallanes Alcober, 35,
sought a place in Pathways after
pleading no contest in July to a sin-
gle misdemeanor count of illegal
videotaping. On Friday, Judge Mark
Forcum decided Alcober did not
qualify and sentenced him to 30
days in jail and three years proba-
tion. He was also ordered to stay
away from Kaiser Hospital except
for medical treatment and possess
no camera equipment.
Had Alcober qualified, he would
have received mental health treat-
ment rather than incarceration.
Prosecutors alleged Alcober
filmed at least five users of an unisex
employee bathroom at the Kaiser
Medical Center but he can only be
charged for a single act of recording.
Prosecutors say Alcober, while
working a night shift in October,
placed a micro digital camera inside
a bathroom on the seventh floor sur-
gical unit, covering it with white
surgical tape and leaving a small
hole through which to record.
The last of five women filmed dis-
covered the camera and Alcober was
reportedly identified by both his
image in the footage and his behav-
ior.
Alcober no longer works for
Kaiser Permanente and the incident
was reported to the California Board
of Registered Nursing, according to
Kaiser spokesman Karl Sonkin.
In June, a deputy state attorney
general appeared in court to tem-
porarily suspend Alcober’s nursing
license. He ordered Alcober to also
turn over his nursing identification
and wall certificate.
Alcober has been free from cus-
tody on his own recognizance.

nesses to not wait,” said Epstein,

NEW YORK — This election will

roiling races across the country dur-

Chile miners: From world fame to humble homes

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
COPIAPO, Chile — Chile’s 33
rescued miners got heroes’ wel-
comes, still wearing the sunglasses
that make them look like rock stars,
as they pushed through swarms of
news media eager to broadcast
details of their harrowing experi-
ence trapped underground.
The next day, they woke up in
humble homes to the reality of fam-
ily strife and possible unemploy-
ment.
Most of the miners headed home
over the weekend from the hospital
where they were taken after being
pulled through a narrow, 2,040-foot
(622-meter) deep shaft to the sur-
face Wednesday in a stunning res-
cue broadcast live around the
world.
They are getting substantial offers
of money for their story, but made a
pact to say little about their 69-day
ordeal while negotiating movie and
book rights. They even hired an
accountant while underground to
track and share the proceeds, their
friend, shift foreman Pablo
Ramirez, told the Associated Press.
“All that will come out later. As a
group, we’re thinking about putting
out a book, and that will tell every-
thing,” said Ariel Ticona, whose

hope — was born during his entrap-

in marginal neighborhoods. Some
have strained relationships with the
families who held vigil, praying for
their survival. All face a search for
work since the mine that employed
them has filed for bankruptcy.
Seven of the miners held a news
conference to plead for job training
and government benefits. They also
pleaded for privacy, citing the
media’s treatment of fellow miners
Johnny Barrios and Claudio Yanez.
Barrios’ wife and lover, who live
a block away from one another,
both arrived at the mine following

TIJUANA, Mexico — A light

THE DAILY JOURNAL
Mother’s milk turns sour
J
esse Unruh’s famous phrase,
“money is the mother’s milk
of politics” has come back to
haunt us this election season and
left us with a sour taste. While spe-
cial interests, lobbyists and corpo-
rate money have traditionally
played a role in U.S. elections, this
year the big three will monopolize
races and ballot measures across
the country. Recent U.S. Supreme
Court decisions have opened a
Pandora’s box allowing unnamed
and unrestricted special interests to
run wild.
In the meantime, if you really
want to feel hopeless about how
our government works, read Ryan
Lizza’s article in the Oct. 11 issue
of The New Yorker magazine, titled
“As the World Burns,”
Washington’s climate-change catas-
trophe. It’s a behind the scenes
look at how legislation gets
derailed, ruined or stopped. The
article describes what happened
when senators John Kerry, Joe
Lieberman and Lindsay Graham
tried to work together to forge a
compromise on climate change leg-
islation. It ends with the following
comments from Al Gore: “The
influence of special interests is now
at an extremely unhealthy level ... .
It’s to the point where it’s virtually
impossible for participants in the
current political system to enact
any significant change without first
seeking and gaining permission
from the largest commercial inter-
ests who are most affected by the
proposed change.”

We are not immune to these
Do Unto Others?
“T
he only reason I
always try to meet and
know the parents bet-
ter is because it helps me to forgive
their children.” — Louis Johonnot.
When oldest granddaughter was
in intermediate school, she came
upon a group of kids who were tor-
turing a grounded seagull that had a
broken wing. As she watched them
prodding the bird and laughing
about it, she burst into tears and ran
to the school’s office to report the
incident. From that day on, two
girls who had been in the group
watching the poor bird, threatened
and verbally bullied her regularly.
In fact, it continued off and on well
into high school.
So it isn’t only boys who bully,
as some might believe. Maybe it
seems that way because the bully-
ing that boys do is usually more
overt. Girls are more “discreet,”
often using snide and hurtful
remarks, issuing threats and spread-
ing rumors and using the Internet to
harass their victims.
According to Jessica Bennett,
author of “From Lockers to
Lockup” ( Newsweek, Oct. 11), one
in five children is bullied each year.
Nine out of 10 gay and lesbian
youngsters suffer such intimidation.
During the month of September,
there were at least four reports of
teens who committed suicide
because they just couldn’t take it
any more. This is not a new phe-
nomena. When my sons were in
intermediate school, they would tell
me about unfortunate boys who
were constantly being picked on. In
spite of laws against bullying in
most states, schools still seem to
have much trouble dealing with this
problem in a way that would pro-
tect the innocent victims, enlighten
the perpetrators and punish them, if
necessary.
Then there is Proposition 25, which would lower the
threshold to pass the state budget to a majority, as is
done in 47 states. But if you listen to the ads, you
would never know what the proposition is about.
forces in California. Proposition 23
is a perfect example. It will kill
California’s landmark climate
change legislation, now a model for
the rest of the country since federal
attempts are defunct. It is financed
by out-of-state oil companies.
Proponents are marketing the ini-
tiative as a job saver but it will
debilitate the state’s fast growing
alternative energy industry while
increasing harmful emissions. Then
there is Proposition 25, which
would lower the threshold to pass
the state budget to a majority, as is
done in 47 states. But if you listen
to the ads, you would never know
what the proposition is about.
Instead the ads, again financed by
special interests, feature legislators
living it up in a bar and talking
about how they are going to
increase their salaries. In fact, if
this initiative passes, legislators
will have to forego their salaries if
the budget is late.

New York Times columnist
Thomas Friedman, also read the
New Yorker piece and was dis-
mayed. “The fact that we failed to

actually a reflection of a broader

of our political system to unite,
You can tell children to leave other kids alone. You
can explain to them about empathy and compassion
and respect for others, but if their hearts are empty
because they haven’t experienced these enough in
their young lives, change is very difficult. Until they
feel good about themselves, they will continue to
look for ways to compensate.
And yet, as we expect schools to
try to stem the problem, this is
another tragedy that boils down to
cultural dysfunction. Combine the
natural tendency for many boys to
be aggressive and focused on one-
upmanship, plus what they absorb
from the media and parents (and
sometimes even school authorities)
that still wink and think, “boys will
be boys,” and the plot thickens. But
whether boys or girls, what is
behind such behavior? Whether tor-
turing and laughing at a seagull or
shoving a 13-year-old gay boy
down a flight of stairs (as happened
in the case of a boy in Texas who
later shot himself with his father’s
gun), such bullies have an empty
place in their hearts where empathy
and compassion should be.
It doesn’t seem to register for
many in this society that a child
who has to put someone else down,
demean another child even to the
point of serious injury (physical or
mental), has serious psychological
problems. And isn’t it obvious that
the worst offenders are likely to
cause all kinds of havoc for society
as adults? Yet the story often is that
the problem was reported to author-
ities and even to the parents of the
perpetrators and little or nothing
changed.
You wonder if these children
bonded securely with anyone as
babies. Were they allowed to
express their feelings? Did they live

If politics is not our salvation
perhaps technology is. Google has
produced a car which drives itself.
It has all kinds of advantages. The
technology could double the capac-
ity of roads by allowing cars to
drive more safely while closer
together. According to a recent arti-
cle in the New York Times, the
robot cars would be less likely to
crash and could be built lighter and
save energy. What happens if the
computer driving your car crashes?
Well, you can push a red button,
step on the brakes or just pray.
These cars won’t be on the market
for some time. When they are, let’s
remember the seed was nurtured
locally, in Mountain View, Calif.
Google is also exploring future off-
shore wind farms along the Atlantic
Seaboard. A backbone cable sys-
tem, with a capacity of 6,000
megawatts, equal to the five large
nuclear reactors, would run in shal-
low trenches on the seabed in fed-
eral waters 15-20 miles offshore
from northern New Jersey to
Norfolk, Va. It would provide a

child with disdain? How much fam-
ily turmoil have they experienced in
their young lives? Or were they
spoiled rotten? You wonder if any
of the gay boys who did themselves
in were also hassled by their fathers
for not being “rough and tough.”
You can tell children to leave
other kids alone. You can explain to
them about empathy and compas-
sion and respect for others, but if
their hearts are empty because they
haven’t experienced these enough
in their young lives, change is very
difficult. Until they feel good about
themselves, they will continue to
look for ways to compensate. Until
they enjoy self respect, they will
not be able to respect others. How
many more young people will suf-
fer and even destroy themselves as
a result of being bullied before the
damage done by such behavior is
taken seriously enough to be seen
as a symptom of parental and cul-
tural child abuse and neglect and
measures taken for appropriate edu-
cation?
Jessica Bennett seems to have a
problem with determining what
kind of bullying is “just bad” and
what is criminal. She also seems to
think that bullies that come from
“nice families” may deserve lenien-
cy. But what did such children learn
in their “nice families?” It is doubt-
ful that they learned, from their par-
ents’ example, that we, individually

Big gains for some stocks
By David K. Randall
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — It’s a question as old
as investing itself: will good perform-
ance last?
The Dow Jones industrial average and
the Standard & Poor’s 500 index are
both up more than 5 percent this year,
and barring something dramatic will fin-
ish in the black. Much of the gains can
be attributed to two sectors: companies
that make equipment used in big con-
struction projects, and hotels, restaurants
and ritzy clothing stores. Each is up
more than 15 percent for the year.
Some stocks in the group are up much
more. Anyone who invested in engine-
maker Cummins Inc. in early January
watched the investment grow by 100
percent. Priceline.com Inc. has jumped
about 60 percent.
Top 400 charities see billions less in donations
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — A new ranking of
the nation’s 400 biggest charities shows
donations dropped by 11 percent overall
last year as the Great Recession ended
— the worst decline in 20 years since the
Chronicle of Philanthropy began keep-
ing a tally.
The Philanthropy 400 report to be
released Monday shows such familiar
names as the United Way and the
Pipeline on hold amid oil’s recent woes
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BISMARCK, N.D. — The steel is
staged, and crews are waiting to lay the last
and most expensive leg of TransCanada
Corp.’s multibillion-dollar pipeline net-
work that would carry Canadian oil to
refineries along the Gulf Coast.
Yet final U.S. government approval for
the massive project, once assumed to be
on a fast track, is now delayed indefi-
nitely, with little official explanation.
Normally, performance like that
would be a red flag. Chasing after past
performance is an investing sin that, like
dunking your potato chip twice in dip,
everyone is guilty of occasionally. But
some money managers say that this
could be one time when it pays to keep
investing in stocks that are outperform-
ing the market.
The reasons: Much of the world is on
a building binge. And consumers with
good jobs are starting to spend money
again. Industrial companies are profiting
from massive infrastructure spending in
emerging markets such as China, Brazil
and India. As each country builds roads,
tunnels, schools and malls to cater to a
growing middle class, they often turn to
American corporations for machines,
trucks and airplanes.
“The performance of the industrial
sector is really a vote of confidence in
Salvation Army, both based near
Washington, continue to dominate the
ranking, despite the 2009 declines. The
survey accounts for $68.6 billion in
charitable contributions.
An earlier report by the Giving USA
Foundation found overall charitable giv-
ing declined 3.6 percent last year. That
report included giving to private founda-
tions and to smaller charities, while the
Chronicle’s survey only includes top
charities raising money from the public.
The company had hoped to begin laying
pipe by the end of the year, but those
prospects have dimmed.
Some experts conclude the negative
publicity surrounding oil-related disas-
ters, particularly the offshore BP leak
that polluted the Gulf Coast for months,
has made the Keystone XL pipeline a
victim of guilt by association.
“I think it’s fair to speculate that BP
fouled the nest for TransCanada,” said
Richard Fineberg, a pipeline analyst with

Cummins, for example, saw sales of
construction equipment more than dou-
ble in the second quarter, mainly
because of building projects in China.
Caterpillar has expanded its operations
in Brazil and China this year in anticipa-
tion of continuing growth.
The weakening dollar could add addi-
tional fuel. While a falling dollar may
make it more expensive for Americans to
travel abroad, it’s a benefit for compa-
nies that sell products to international
clients whose euros and yens can buy
more dollars. “With a falling dollar, a lot
of these products that these companies
make are going to be cheaper for buyers
overseas,” said Brian Washkowiak of
Talon Asset Management.
“It shows that charities are really hav-
ing a tough time, and this is some of the
most successful charities in the United
States,” Chronicle Editor Stacy Palmer
said. “Usually bigger charities are more
resilient, so that’s the part that is still
surprising.”
The top charities may have taken such
a hit as giving shifted to smaller, local
groups and because people gave less
money to arts and cultural groups,
Palmer said.

Postseason ace
faces October pro
in Game 3 of ALCS
By Mike Fitzpatrick
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Cliff Lee and
Andy Pettitte. The postseason ace
against that ol’ October pro.
With the best-of-seven AL cham-
pionship series tied at one apiece,
the scene shifts to Yankee Stadium
for Game 3 on Monday night, when
a pair of pressure-proven pitchers
will be back in the spotlight.
Lee’s left arm has been baseball’s
most dominant force in the past two
postseasons, carrying him to a 6-0
mark with a 1.44 ERA and three
complete games in seven starts.
He’ll be on the mound for the
Texas Rangers against Pettitte, who
has an outstanding October resume
of his own. The longtime Yankees
lefty is going for his 20th postseason
win.
“Obviously, it’s a great matchup,”
New York manager Joe Girardi said
Sunday, when the Yankees and
Rangers worked out under blue
skies in the Bronx. “I think people
are looking forward to tomorrow.”
Coming off the first home playoff
win in the franchise’s 50-season his-
tory, the Rangers are back on the
road — where they’re unbeaten in
these playoffs. Texas won all three
first-round games at AL East cham-
pion Tampa Bay, including a pair of
masterpieces by Lee.
Next, he’ll try to join Orlando
Hernandez and Orel Hershiser as the
only pitchers to win their first seven
postseason decisions. Hernandez
opened 8-0 for the Yankees from
1998-2000, while Hershiser went 7-
0 with the Los Angeles Dodgers and
Cleveland Indians from 1985-95.

postseason slump, going 2 for 3 with
a bases-loaded walk and a bases-
clearing double.
Sanchez gave up three runs — two
earned — and five hits in six-plus
innings. The tough lefty had domi-
nated the Phillies in his five previous
starts against them, not allowing
more than four hits in any outing.
Oswalt chased Sanchez with a
line-drive single leading off the bot-
tom of the seventh. He advanced to
second on Shane Victorino’s sacri-
fice off Ramon Ramirez. After
Chase Utley was intentionally
walked, Placido Polanco lined a sin-
gle to center. Oswalt ran through
third-base coach Sam Perlozzo’s
stop sign and slid safely ahead of the
relay throw to give the Phillies a 3-1
lead.
Jeremy Affeldt came in and struck
out Ryan Howard after a double
steal. Jayson Werth was intentional-
ly walked before Santiago Casilla
entered to face Rollins. The former
NL MVP, dropped from leadoff to
sixth in the batting order since the
playoffs started, hit a drive off the
right-center field fence to put the
Phillies up 6-1.
An appreciative crowd chanted “J-
Roll! J-Roll!” with a smiling Rollins

myself. Regardless of what’s hap-
pened in the past or what other
people expect of me, I expect as
much out of myself or more than
anybody is going to expect of me,”
Lee said. “So I don’t look at it any
different than I would any other
game. I expect to be successful and
that’s the game tomorrow and
every time I take the mound.”
Because of his overwhelming
brilliance, most of the buzz leading
up to this matchup has revolved
around Lee.
That’s just fine with the 38-year-
old Pettitte, who is 5-0 with a 2.88
ERA in his last nine postseason
starts and always seems to come
through when New York needs him
most.
standing on second.
Oswalt didn’t allow a hit until
Ross connected with one out in the
fifth to tie it at 1. He ripped a 1-0
pitch into the left-center field seats
— nearly the same spot both of his
homers off Halladay landed.
But the Phillies played small-ball
— a rarity for this lineup filled with
inconsistent sluggers — to take a 2-
1 lead in the bottom half.
Victorino, one of the few Phillies
with success off Sanchez, lined a
double down the left-field line. He
advanced to third on Utley’s fly out
to right and scored on Polanco’s sac-
rifice fly to center, which drew a
loud ovation.
The Phillies took advantage of
Sanchez’s wildness and scored an
unearned run without getting a hit in
the first.
Utley, flip-flopped with Polanco in
the batting order, drew a one-out
walk. Utley stole second and
advanced to third when Polanco
reached on third baseman Mike
Fontenot’s throwing error. Howard
worked a walk after falling behind
1-2 in the count.
Sanchez then caught Werth look-
ing at a slider for the second out. But
Rollins walked to force in a run.
Raul Ibanez fanned to end the
inning.
Rollins got his second hit of the
playoffs in the fourth when Fontenot
let his popup land untouched near
the mound. He was on second with
After missing two months with a
groin injury and making only three
starts in September, he pitched
seven solid innings to beat
Minnesota in Game 2 of the divi-

“I feel like there’s not a whole lot
of attention that I get anyways. It’s
been like that kind of my whole
career. I guess I can say I’m used to
that. It’s always maybe the other
guy that’s going to get that. That’s
totally fine with me,” Pettitte said.
“I’m kind of uncomfortable with a
whole lot of attention. I want to go
out and do my job, give us a chance
to win that ballgame.”
The high-scoring Yankees, with
baseball’s top offense this season,
have been as overmatched by Lee
as everyone else lately. They like to
work pitchers and grind out at-bats,
but their patient approach can be
countered by Lee because he keeps
everything on or around the plate.
“If he’s coming out and throwing

opener for the Phillies last year
when he struck out 10 and gave up
only an unearned run.
In fact, he won both his World

goes wrong, he’s going against a
ballclub that can make you pay.
“I don’t think he can do anything

24-yard tying field goal.
On the last possession of overtime, Branch
caught passes for 23 and 10 yards, setting up
the winning kick.
Branch finished with 9 catches for 98 yards
for the Patriots (4-1). For the Ravens (4-2) Joe
Flacco completed 27 of 35 passes for 285
yards and two touchdowns.
Giants 28, Lions 20
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Eli
Manning threw two touchdown passes and the
Giants sent error-prone Detroit to an NFL
record-tying 24th straight road loss.
Safety Deon Grant preserved the third
straight win for the Giants (4-2) by forcing
and recovering a fumble by Lions’ receiver
Nate Burleson at the Giants 42 with about five
minutes to go and New York ahead by four
points.

setting up Brandon Jacobs’ second touchdown
run, a 6-yarder. Jacobs also scored from 4
yards out.
Manning threw TD passes of 33 yards to
Mario Manningham and 1-yard to Travis
Beckum.
Lions quarterback Shaun Hill broke his left
arm in the first half, and was replaced by
Drew Stanton. Also, Detroit linebacker Zack
Follett was hospitalized after a violent hel-
met-to-helmet hit while covering a fourth-
quarter kickoff return. Coach Jim Schwartz
said Follett was conscious and has movement
in his limbs.
Rams 20, Chargers 17
ST. LOUIS — James Hall, Chris Long and
Larry Grant had two sacks apiece and St.
Louis stuffed the NFL’s top offense for its
third straight win at home.
Sam Bradford threw a 38-yard touchdown
pass to fellow rookie Danario Alexander,
making his NFL debut, to help build a 14-
point cushion in the first half. Steven Jackson,
who finished with 109 yards, also scored and
had several key late carries for the Rams (3-
3).
The Rams, who last won three in a row at
home in 2004, entered the season with a 14-
game losing streak.
The Chargers’ Rivers was sacked seven
times and was 22 of 37 for 249 yards, one TD
and an interception.
San Diego (2-4) lost tight end Antonio
Gates with a left ankle injury in the first half.
Texans 35, Chiefs 31
HOUSTON — Matt Schaub threw an 11-
yard touchdown pass to Andre Johnson with
28 seconds left to give Houston a stunning
fourth-quarter comeback victory.
The Texans (4-2) trailed 31-21 with just
over 7 minutes left after Thomas Jones’ 11-
yard TD run. Schaub threw two long passes to
Owen Daniels before Arian Foster scored
with 3:30 left to cut the Chiefs’ lead to 3.
THE DAILY JOURNAL
Houston regained possession after a punt
with just over 2 minutes left. Schaub found
Johnson across the middle for a 15-yard gain,
then hit him down the sideline for 31 more to
the Chiefs 24.
Five plays later, Schaub eluded the rush and
found Johnson open in the back of the end
zone. Johnson, still nursing a sprained right
ankle, caught eight passes for 138 yards.
Matt Cassel threw three TD passes for
Kansas City (3-2).
The Super Bowl champions rebounded
from a mistake-filled road loss, scoring on
their first three possessions and getting an
unexpected lift from rookie running back
Chris Ivory.
Ivory rushed for 158 yards on 15 carries,
stepping up in the absence of the injured
Reggie Bush and Pierre Thomas.
The Saints (4-2) amassed 476 yards total
offense and weren’t forced to punt until early
in the fourth quarter. Tampa Bay (3-2) was
held scoreless until Josh Freeman led a long
fourth-quarter TD drive aided by a pair of per-
sonal foul penalties for a late hit on the quar-
terback.
Dolphins 23, Packers 20 OT
GREEN BAY, Wis. — Dan Carpenter
kicked a 44-yard field goal with 9:01 left in
overtime to lift Miami.
It was the second straight overtime loss for
the injury-riddled Packers (3-3), who lost at
Washington last week.
And it was a special teams-driven victory
for the Dolphins (3-2), who had a bye week to
think about a loss to New England that result-
ed in the firing of their special teams coach.
Aaron Rodgers started for Green Bay one
week after sustaining a concussion, and
scored on a sneak with 13 seconds left in reg-
ulation. The Packers tied the game with the
extra point and forced overtime.
Seahawks 23, Bears 20
CHICAGO — Matt Hasselbeck threw for a
season-best 242 yards and a touchdown and
Seattle’s defense sacked Jay Cutler six times.
Cutler was in trouble much of the game,
and completed just 17 of 39 for 290 yards. He
missed last week’s game with a concussion
after being sacked nine times by the Giants
the previous week.
Devin Hester ran a punt back 89 yards in
the fourth quarter, equaling an NFL record
with his 13th kick return for a touchdown.
The Seahawks are to 3-2; Chicago fell to 4-
2.

NINERS
Continued from page 11
Oakland drove inside the Niners 10
on its first two series but settled for
field goals. Janikowski kicked a 40-
yarder with 8:21 left, set up by two long
catches by Zach Miller.
This marked the first regular-season
meeting between the rivals since 2006
— and it was played exactly 21 years
after the Bay Area earthquake hit when
these teams played at Candlestick Park
in 1989.
This one wasn’t anything special — a
matchup of teams that each have gone
seven straight seasons without a win-
ning record. Oakland has failed in
seven tries the past two years when try-
ing for consecutive wins.
After the first drive of the second
half, San Francisco had 123 yards in
penalties and 137 yards of offense.
Crabtree said during the week he
wanted to have a big game against the
team that picked Darrius Heyward-Bey
instead of him at No. 7 in last year’s
draft. Crabtree, picked three spots later
at 10th, had four catches for 57 yards to
Heyward-Bey’s three for 19.
Smith faced boobirds for the second
straight Sunday at home. This time,
they started at the 10:18 mark of the
second quarter. It’s been a rough go for
Smith, who committed seven turnovers
in the 49ers’ three narrow losses — by
eight combined points against New
Orleans, Atlanta and Philadelphia.
Coach Mike Singletary nearly
benched him last week after a heated
conversation on the sideline but Smith
talked him out of it. The QB then led
two late touchdown drives before
throwing a pick on San Francisco’s
final possession in a 27-24 loss to the
Philadelphia Eagles.
On Sunday, Smith was just 2 for 11
before completing a pass to Josh
Morgan late in the first half. Joe
Nedney then kicked a 25-yard field
goal 8 seconds before halftime.
Linebacker Manny Lawson made an
athletic, diving catch in front of Miller
to get the Niners the ball back early in
the second, but they couldn’t capitalize.
San Francisco avoided becoming the
NFL’s only 0-6 team. Buffalo and
Carolina are 0-5 but were idle Sunday.
The 49ers were the popular pick to
win the NFC West before the season
began. This franchise thought for sure it
would end a seven-year playoff drought
— though that will still be a tough task.
The three other divisional teams all
have three victories. San Francisco
goes to Carolina next week before fly-
ing to London to face the Denver
Broncos on Oct. 31.
Niners team president Jed York said
after the last-second loss to the Eagles
that his club would still win the West
and make the playoffs.

Kasey Kahne sick to his
stomach and of his car
By Jenna Fryer
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Hours after he was too ill
to get back in his wounded race car, Kasey Kahne ran
a Sunday morning 5k for his charity in a shade over 22
minutes.
“That was the slowest I ever ran a 5K,” he said. “I’m
definitely feeling the effects.”
Yes, Kahne was physically sick Saturday night, and
said he vomited once after his accident 124 laps into
the race at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
He was also sick of his race car, frustrated with run-
ning poorly and disgusted that his brakes had failed
for the third time this season, and second time in three
races. Had he not gotten sick, Kahne said Sunday he
might have gotten back in the car after his Richard
Petty Motorsports crew repaired some of the damage.
By that time, though, he was 100 laps down. He was
queasy, annoyed with the brakes and angry at criticism
from an unnamed RPM employee.
So he said no, he couldn’t continue, and the team
grabbed J.J. Yeley to finish the race.
“I was told that I needed to start doing my part,
(that) is what one guy told me last night after the race,”
Kahne said at the NASCAR Hall of Fame, at the fin-
ish line of the Kasey Kahne Foundation 5-kilometer
run.
Monday • Oct. 18, 2010 15
“I’m not going to say names,
but I was told that I need to start
doing my part. I can’t control the
issues I’ve had this year. I don’t
know how many parts I’ve
broke,” he said. “If I really
thought about it, I could come up
with all kinds of stuff.
“You can’t control that as a
driver. I’m doing my part. I just
Kasey Kahne
need the car. I work as hard as
anybody out there.”
Kahne’s disappearing act was a mere sideshow to
Jamie McMurray’s victory and yet another improba-
ble comeback for Jimmie Johnson. The four-time
defending NASCAR champion spun early, dropped to
37th in the field, and rallied to finish second and widen
his lead in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship
standings.
Johnson was up early Sunday to join fellow
NASCAR driver Joey Logano in running Kahne’s
charity “5Kahne.” The inaugural run drew 302 runners
and raised $30,000 for his foundation.
It was a nice show of support from Johnson to his
future teammate. Kahne signed to join Hendrick
Motorsports in 2012 this spring, and will move to Red
Bull Racing next year as a one-season holding spot
before he makes his eventual move to HMS.

‘Jackass’gang rules box office

By David Germain
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES — Johnny Knoxville and

his “Jackass” gang are even bigger hits in
three dimensions.
“Jackass 3D,” their latest big-screen collec-
tion of crazy stunts and antics, opened with a
whopping $50 million, soaring past the

O
ur current Giants-themed adop-
tion promotion ($9 fee for any
black or orange cat through Oct.
31) delighted some residents, but tweaked
others. Since the news has been “all
Giants, all the time,” our promotion
received much love and made three televi-
sion stations’ newscasts, leading directly
to more good homes for shelter cats. Not
so fast, cried a handful of local residents.
I received e-mails and calls, as did our
president. And, when we hear from a
handful of people, this generally means
many more have similar concerns. This
message was typical: “While I think it's a
clever promotion, I was under the impres-
sion that black cats are not typically avail-
able for adoption around Halloween as
some adopters’ intentions are not in the
best interest of the cats. That's why I feel
offering black cats at the very inexpensive
cost of $9 may not be a good idea. I saw
the promotion on the morning news and
felt compelled to voice my concerns.” As
we explained in response, our experience
has told us there’s no validity to the fear
that shelter animals — adopted for high
or low prices — are targets for that kind
of Halloween-related abuse. We’ve never
seen a spike in calls or reports of cruelty
around Halloween, while we have, for
years, used the holiday to find more
homes for our cats. Our adoption process
is definitely not about someone coming
in, choosing a cat, plunking down the
adoption fee and walking out. We have
every faith in our staff's ability to deter-
mine the suitability of an adopter, a
process which can take up to an hour.
While we helped put most folks’ concerns
to rest, we didn’t please everyone. An
Oakland A’s fan sick of all the black and
orange Giants hoopla asked us to consider
discounting all cats with his ballclub’s
colors: green and yellow!

debuts of their first two movies, according to
studio estimates Sunday.
It was the third-straight No. 1 opening for
Paramount’s franchise, which launched with
a $22.8 million opening for 2002’s “Jackass:
The Movie” and continued with a $29 million
debut for 2006’s “Jackass Number Two.”
This was the first 3-D outing for Knoxville
and his pals, and it was a natural for “what
they do. They don’t use it as a gimmick. It’s
seamless in their stunts,” said Don Harris,
Paramount executive vice president for distri-
bution. “When some guy gets hit in the crotch
with a baseball in 2-D, it’s one thing, but
when he’s kind of up in your face and it hap-
pens, it’s another experience.”
“Jackass 3D” set a record for biggest
October debut, topping the $48.1 million
opening weekend for “Scary Movie 3” in
2003. “Scary Movie 3” sold more tickets than
“Jackass 3D,” though, factoring in ticket-
price inflation and the premium charge for 3-
D screenings, which cost a few dollars more
than 2-D movies.
Premiering at No. 2 with $22.5 million was
Summit Entertainment’s action comedy
“Red,” starring Bruce Willis, Morgan
Freeman, Helen Mirren, John Malkovich and
Mary-Louise Parker in the tale of retired
black-ops agents targeted by the CIA.
While “Jackass 3D” cornered the market
for young crowds, with two-thirds of viewers
under 25, “Red” drew an older set, with 58
percent of the audience over 35.
“Between their audience and ours, I think
we’ve covered the spectrum of potential
movie-goers this weekend,” said Richie Fay,
head of distribution for Summit. “What was
amazing about this cast was the chemistry
and the obvious fun they had making the
movie. Older guys and women are really
capable of doing things more than sitting in
rocking chairs and pushing the remote con-
trol.”
Despite the huge opening for “Jackass 3D,”
Hollywood was unable to pull out of a box-
office slide that has persisted this fall.
Overall revenues totaled $133 million,
down 4 percent from the same weekend last
year, when “Where the Wild Things Are” led
with a $32.7 million debut and “Law Abiding
Citizen,” “Paranormal Activity” and
“Jackass 3D”was the weekend’s top movie earning $50 million.
Top ten movies
1.“Jackass 3D,”$50 million.
2.“Red,”$22.5 million.
3.“The Social Network,”$11 million.
4.“Secretariat,”$9.5 million.
5.“Life as We Know It,”$9.2 million.
6.“Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of
Ga’Hoole,”$4.2 million.
7.“The Town,”$4 million.
8.“My Soul to Take,”$3.2 million.
9.“Easy A,”$2.7 million.
10.“Wall Street:Money Never Sleeps,”$2.4
million.
“Couples Retreat” combined to add nearly
$60 million to the till.
“When you’ve got a $50 million gross and
still can’t eke out a win over the same week-
end last year, that says a lot,” said Paul
Dergarabedian, box-office analyst for
Hollywood.com. “We’ve been in a slump
since Labor Day and even really before that,
because we saw kind of a slow end to the
summer.”
So far this year, domestic
revenue is at $8.5 billion, 3.2
percent above 2009’s record
pace. But adding in higher
ticket prices, attendance is
down 2.3 percent from 2009,
according to Hollywood.com.
Sony’s acclaimed Facebook drama “The
Social Network,” which had been No. 1 the
previous two weekends, held up well as it
slipped to third-place with $11 million. The
film raised its three-week total to $63.1 mil-
lion.
In limited release, Clint Eastwood and Matt
Damon’s “Hereafter” opened strongly with
$231,000 in six theaters. That gave it an aver-
age of $38,500 a theater, compared with
$16,228 in 3,081 cinemas for “Jackass 3D.”
“Hereafter” follows three characters with
unusual connections to the afterlife.
Distributor Warner Bros. expands the film to
nationwide release this Friday.
Hilary Swank’s legal drama “Conviction,”
based on the real-life story of a woman who
put herself through law school to clear her
brother on a murder rap, opened with
$110,000 in 11 theaters, for a $10,000 aver-
age.
Distributor Fox Searchlight expands
“Conviction” to about 70 theaters on Friday.

generate its own revenue by bringing
tourists back to the city. He also wants
to make sure the city does not stand in
the way of keeping current businesses
that operate in Half Moon Bay from
being successful.
“It is also important to attract new
businesses,” he said.
Mayor Marina Fraser and the rest of
the council, Allan Alifano, John Muller
and Naomi Patridge all support the
sales tax increase.
The additional revenue is needed to
maintain essential city services, accord-
ing to a staff report.
For Councilman Alifano, the sales
tax increase is a necessity.
“We’ve done all the cutting we can
do,” Alifano said. “If we want to sur-
vive, we need this tax. We are giving
voters the opportunity to decide

and cleaner fuel requirements, as well
as emission reporting and fee require-
ments for major polluters like power
plants and oil refineries.
Proponents of Proposition 23 say it
would prevent AB 32 from costing
Californians billions of dollars in the
form of more expensive gas, food, elec-
tricity and water. They say California
businesses cannot drive the economic
recovery and create needed jobs when
they are faced with new regulations.
Opponents, however, argue that the ini-
tiative would lead to more air pollution,
and threaten the clean energy jobs they
say are leading the search for alterna-
tives to oil.
The Legislative Analyst’s Office esti-
mates that if passed, Proposition 23
would generate potential positive,
short-term impacts on state and local
government revenue from the suspen-
sion of regulatory activities, with the
longer-term impact remaining unclear.
The state also stands to lose revenue
from the auctioning of emission
allowances by halting implementation
of cap-and-trade regulations.
Nancy Rader, executive director of
the California Wind Energy
Association, said that even though the

interested. Redwood City begrudgingly
opened its arms but still the area on the
east side of Highway 101 isn’t geo-
graphically connected to most of the
city, she said.
Redwood Shores is actually landfill
like Foster City and questions over its
development nearly derailed plans for
the community.
From the ‘60s to 1986, the area
about C/CAG.
Federal stimulus money should be
used to fill potholes since they are con-
sidered shovel-ready projects,
Pettengill said.
C/CAG is a county agency charged
with addressing transportation and air
quality issues, among others, and is
comprised of a 21-member board of
local elected officials.
Cities can use the money for pave-
whether these essential services are
needed.”
A survey completed before the coun-
cil put the measure on the ballot indi-
cated nearly 70 percent support for the
sales tax increase.
If residents do not pass the tax, the
police department may dissolve and the
city would be forced to contract with
another city or the county for police
services, according to the staff report.
Half Moon Bay’s recreation staff has
been reduced by 50 percent, street
repairs have been scrapped, the police
department has been cut by 20 percent
and its interim police chief is forced to
work part time because of its budget
deficit.
In April, city employees agreed to
salary and benefit reductions along with
taking furloughs to help trim about
$900,000 from the city’s budget. The
city also had to dip into its reserves by
$500,000.
Half Moon Bay’s reserve has dipped
to about $800,000, Kowalczyk said.
However, the city has revenue in a
Legislature and government could
adopt laws separate from AB 32, if
Proposition 23 passes, the initiative
would cloud the future for renewable
energy.
“Right now, the renewable energy
market is predicated on AB 32,” said
Rader.
When AB 32 was passed, unemploy-
ment stood at 4.1 percent. The current
rate hovers around 12 percent, and in
the last 40 years, unemployment in
California has only been below the ini-
tiative’s 5.5 percent stipulation for four
consecutive quarters three times.
California Assemblyman Dan Logue,
R-Linda, and author of Proposition 23,
said he wrote the initiative to avoid the
further economic collapse he is certain
would accompany the implementation
of AB 32. He argues that green energy
jobs are propped up by taxpayers.
“We should promote a green econo-
my. But if we have no real economy,
there’s nothing to help prop it up,” said
Logue.
Opponents point out that Texas-based
oil companies Valero Energy
Corporation and Tesoro Corporation,
among the worst polluters in
California, are bankrolling the proposi-
tion. Both have refineries in California
that would need to cap their emissions
and reduce air pollution to comply with
AB 32. Opponents also question sup-
porters’ claims that AB 32 will drive
housed aquatic theme park Marine
World/Africa USA. After the park
moved to Vallejo, the land later became
home to the unmistakable cylindrical
towers of the Oracle Corporation.
When Electronic Arts wanted to
move in, Adams remembers some who
called the building ugly and one resi-
dent who bought an inflatable balloon
and floated it at the proposed height.
After springing up, the association
was really adversarial with the
Redwood City Council, but now there
is a collaborative effort and a greater
sense of community, she said.

restricted reserve account that
Kowalczyk said could be used better.
“There is a lot of rhetoric regarding
the city being insolvent or having to
disincorporate,” said Kowalczyk, who
said the city can solve its problems
without raising the tax. “Being the lone
‘no’ vote is a tough place to be in but
I’m standing up for what I think is
best.”
The city’s main source of income, the
hotel occupancy tax, is down dramati-
cally by 18 percent or about $720,000.
Hotel taxes make up about 35 percent
of Half Moon Bay’s general fund rev-
enue, which was projected at $9.1 mil-
lion for fiscal year 2009-10.
Sales tax revenue dropped about 11
percent last year, or about $196,000,
and construction-related service
charges are down 50 percent or
$550,084.

jobs out of California. They claim the
number of clean energy businesses and
clean energy jobs have increased at a
rate much greater than the state’s aver-
age job growth rate.
Mike Mielke, senior director of
Environmental Programs and Policy for
the Silicon Valley Leadership Group,
thinks Proposition 23 is bad for the job
market because it would take away the
market signal and put at risk the ven-
ture capital-funded green technology
businesses that are just getting started.
“It arrests the development of future
jobs because the market signal is lost,”
said Mielke.
Proposition 23, he said, would threat-
en national security and that reliance on
fossil fuels will cause extreme volatili-
ty in the market in the future, giving
nations like China more political
power.
Gino DiCaro, vice president of com-
munications for the California
Manufacturers and Technology
Association, said AB 32 harms the
state’s manufacturers, who are already
disadvantaged by the high cost of oper-
ating and stringent regulations.
“Proposition 23 would delay cap and
trade, which is very expensive for man-
ufacturers,” said DiCaro. “We need to
give the rest of the country time to
catch up. Green jobs will stay in the
state, but we can’t sacrifice an entire
industry like this.”
Now, there is EA and Oracle and a
significant tax base. There is also a
monthly newsletter, the new elementary
school, a new library branch and a con-
tinuing sense that Redwood Shores is a
great place to live.
“We’re pretty built out at this junc-
ture, so we’re just hoping to maintain
the infrastructure and quality of life,”
Adams said.

Because your ambitions and abilities will be fusing together
in beneficial ways that could help you achieve your heart’s
desire, the year ahead looks better for you than past months.
Make the most of things.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) - If it’s at all possible, try to start
this week off working on a labor of love. It will engender a
good mood that will help you handle everything that confronts
you.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) - Don’t be too busy to meet
someone new whom a friend thinks could be of some assis-
tance to you. You can never have too many associates to
whom you can go to for help.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) - Instead of clinging to
someone who has proven to be a detriment to you, turn to
new people who have stretched out the hand of friendship.
You’ll be amazed at how happy your life could be.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -You could get an oppor-
tunity to spend more time with someone whom you’ll like as
you get to know them. Don’t be too standoffish to discover
new friends.

favor, so don’t hesitate to make changes that could start to
turn things around. In fact, you could even press for a favor if
you see an opening.

what you think is worth saving.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) - Something you thought was
unworkable or undoable will prove to be exactly what you
need, so don’t be so quick to discard things without first thor-
oughly checking them out.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) - There is a good chance that
you could meet someone whom you’ll instantly like. S/he
might turn out to be either a good friend or a person with
whom you could do a lot of business.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) - When cohorts see that you’re
working hard to achieve something that would actually make
their job easier as well, they are likely to pitch in and do
whatever they can to help. Let them.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) - Have faith in the fact that
others like you for who you are and not for what they can get
from you. You don’t have to do anything special, just simply
be yourself.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) - Don’t be afraid to show those you
love how much they mean to you, even if you have to do so in
front of others. You won’t embarrass yourself; it’ll only show
how big your heart is.

Festival shows contrasts of drug war
By Katherine Corcoran
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MORELIA, Mexico — From afar
it seems like Baghdad: car bombs,
beheadings and corrupt politicians.
Up close, Mexico remains magical
and picturesque in parts, feeling
oddly safe even in the hardest-fought
territories of the drug war.
The 8th annual International Film
Festival opened Saturday in the
drug-plagued state of Michoacan to
its largest turnout ever, drawing the
contrast that defines Mexico today.
Only blocks from the site where a
2008 grenade attack killed eight peo-
ple, hundreds lined the red carpet to
squeal at one of Hollywood’s lead-
ing men, Oscar-winning Spanish
actor Javier Bardem. Unlike the

This seed money proved to be the invest-
ment of their lives. The company started on a
shoestring with Eitel, McCullough and one
employee in one room at the 592 San Mateo
Ave. location, but it was enough space for the
early production venture into radio tubes con-
sidering they had no orders at the time. The
equipment for their beginning business was
made from materials found at the local junk-
yard.
At an amateur radio get-together in Fresno,
the first showing of their handmade radio
tubes created interest, but more work was
needed to keep the glass from cracking. After
this flaw was corrected, orders began coming
in from radio operators for two or three tubes
a week. A second employee was added by the
end of the year. The new radio “toy” of the
masses was catching on, turning up the vol-
ume, and business started booming.
By 1937, more than a dozen employees
were working to keep up with orders, and the
company expanded to a 5,000-square-foot
