Parks may get $2.1Minfusion


Without boost to general fund department might close more facilities
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The countys cash-strapped parks department could get $2.1 million in general funds to keep them at an acceptable level of service in the coming scal year under a proposal being considered today. The Department of Parks only dedicated

funding stream is the countys general fund and it has previously been left to absorb rising costs and dropping revenue by slashing services and staff, closing facilities and deferring maintenance. Currently, for example, the parks department cant keep up trimming ammable vegetation which keeps it in close proximity to communities. If the department is kept at its current level

or asked to cut even more, ofcials must look at much different ways to make ends meet like using an open space model, creating a regional parks district with other agencies or closing even more parks, according to Public Works Director James Porter. Instead, Porter will ask Supervisors Don Horsley and Dave Pine, both members of the Board of Supervisors environmental quality

committee, to consider moving $2.1 million from the general fund to the parks department. The committee is meeting jointly with the Parks and Recreation Commission this afternoon to decide whether to make the recommendation to the full board at a later meeting.

Lining up in a spiral shape on the school campus may seem like little more than an art project. Looking down, students in the hypnotic design made an interesting photograph. Creating a piece of art wasnt on the minds of Hillsdale High School students who organized the event, however. On a Friday in October, students in the Hillsdale Effect created this spiral to raise awareness about world poverty a cycle the group hopes to break. Started three years ago with a small number of students, the Hillsdale Effect has raised more than $17,000 to fund 34 microloans and business development mentors through a partnership with nonprofit

eye-opening experience for the local teens. Seventeen-year-old Kaiya Gordon recalled meeting a woman who made nearly 500 tortillas a day for her business a task that impressed the students. Maggie Colgan, 17, was surprised by the friendly and open nature of those who were living in poverty. Senior Lisette Solis agreed, adding her impression of poverty had been limited to infomercials asking for donations. What she saw was very different people who wanted a better life but were grateful for what was available. Colgans impression of who was going to be helped was also changed.

During the Civil War, the USS San Jacinto intercepted a British mail steamer, the Trent, and detained a pair of Confederate diplomats who were enroute to Europe to seek support for the Southern cause.

In 1889, Montana became the 41st state. In 1909, the original Boston Opera House rst opened with a performance of La Gioconda by Amilcare Ponchielli. In 1923, Adolf Hitler launched his rst attempt at seizing power in Germany with a failed coup in Munich that came to be known as the Beer-Hall Putsch. In 1932, New York Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt defeated incumbent Herbert Hoover for the presidency. In 1942, Operation Torch, resulting in an Allied victory, began during World War II as U.S. and British forces landed in French North Africa. In 1960, Massachusetts Sen. John F. Kennedy defeated Vice President Richard M. Nixon for the presidency. In 1980, scientists at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., announced that the U.S. space probe Voyager 1 had discovered a 15th moon orbiting the planet Saturn. In 1986, former Soviet ofcial Vyacheslav M. Molotov, whose name became attached to the incendiary bottle bomb known as a Molotov cocktail, died at age 96. In 1988, Vice President George H.W. Bush won the presidential election, defeating Massachusetts Gov. Michael Dukakis.

Jackson doctor convicted in stars 2009 drug death
LOS ANGELES Michael Jacksons doctor was convicted Monday of involuntary manslaughter after a trial that painted him as a reckless caregiver who administered a lethal dose of a powerful anesthetic that killed the pop star. The verdict against Dr. Conrad Murray marked the latest chapter in one of pop cultures most shocking tragedies the death of the King of Pop on the eve of the singers heavily promoted comeback concerts. Members of Jacksons family wept quietly after the verdict was read, and his mother, Katherine Jackson later told the Associated Press, I feel better now. La Toya Jackson told the AP she was overjoyed. Michael was looking over us, she said on her way out of the courthouse. Murray sat stone-faced during the verdict and was handcuffed and taken into custody without bail until sentencing on Nov. 29. He appeared calm as ofcials led him out of the courtroom. Dr. Murrays reckless conduct in this case poses a demonstrable risk to the safety of the public if he remains free on bond, Judge Michael E. Pastor said. District Attorney Steve Cooley said it will be difcult to achieve an appropriate sentence for Murray because of a new state prison alignment law that allows early release for people convicted verdict was read. It was unclear whether the jury determined that Murray had administered the fatal dose of propofol while deciding he was responsible for the death of Jackson. Prosecutors had said Murray violated at least 17 separate standards of care, a number of which could have resulted in death. A shriek broke the eerie silence in the packed courtroom when the verdict was read, and the crowd erupted outside the courthouse. Jubilant Jackson fans cheered and sang Beat It as they held signs that read guilty and killer. Passing motorists honked their horns. The jury deliberated less than nine hours. The Houston cardiologist, 58, faces a sentence of up to four years in prison. He could also lose his medical license. Murrays attorneys left the courtroom without commenting. In Las Vegas, a former Murray patient and current friend, Donna DiGiacomo, sobbed and said she thought the jury was under overwhelming pressure to convict. This man didnt deserve this. They needed a scapegoat, said DiGiacomo, 53, a former Long Island, N.Y., teachers aide who said she didnt believe Murray did anything to intentionally harm Jackson. Jackson died on June 25, 2009, and details of his nal days dribbled out over several months.

Former teacher claims discrimination


Jewish Day School hit with lawsuit alleging wrongful termination
By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Police reports
Pumpkin poachers
Suspects were caught on video stealing pumpkins from a front porch on the 300 block of West Hillsdale Boulevard in San Mateo before 11:17 a.m. Sunday, Nov. 6.

Claiming age and national origin discrimination, a former Ronald Wornick Jewish Day School employee is suing the school, head of school and board president on 13 counts related to wrongful termination, according to the lawsuit. Claims of multiple violations of the Fair Employment and Housing Act are housed in a 46-page lawsuit led Oct. 24 by San Ramonbased attorney Beth Mora on behalf of Rina Shapira. Among the complaints for damage, Shapira is alleging age and national origin discrimination, wrongful termination, defamation, breach of contract and good faith, failure to pay overtime and wages and a violation of the Unfair Competition Law. Head of School Barbara Gereboff said Monday that no one is at liberty to comment on the lawsuit.

Shapira began work at the school in 2001 as a teacher focusing on Hebrew language. According to the lawsuit, she was notied in May of her termination effective Aug. 31, 2011. Much of the argument claims the ring was based on Shapira being 77 and a citizen of Israel. According to the lawsuit, Shapira was happy with her employment and employer until September 2009 when Gereboff was hired. The process used to nd and appoint Gereboff, along with her reasons for leaving her former employer, are questioned in the lawsuit. Shapira claims to not have been given warning or negative performance feedback before learning of the planned termination for nancial reasons, according to the lawsuit. At a meeting to discuss the planned termination, Shapira claims Gereboff offered to nd or create a position for her. In addition, Shapiras position has since been lled, according to the lawsuit. It was at this meeting that Shapira

notes being told about concerns regarding her teaching style, which were later outlined in writing at Shapiras request, according to the lawsuit. Prior to the Aug. 31 termination date, Shapira was excused from the work place, paid a lesser amount than in previous years and asked to return her keys, according to the lawsuit. The lawsuit also notes nine other cases in which employees of the school were thought to have suffered improper retaliation which included being red or having hours cut dramatically without much reason. In all cases, the employees were 40 or older. According to the lawsuit, new employees hired were often signicantly younger and were not of Israeli origin. Shapira is seeking to have nes brought against her former employer for the accused violations, legal fees reimbursed and any other damages the court sees t. In addition, shes requesting an offer of employment.

PG&E: Pipe burst in test likely caused by backhoe


By Terry Collins
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO A pipe that burst during a high-pressure water test along the same pipeline involved with a deadly explosion in San Bruno last year was likely caused by previous damage from a backhoe, Pacic Gas & Electric Co. ofcials said Monday. A preliminary investigation shows a section of the pipe that ruptured Sunday in Woodside had been somehow damaged by a backhoe after its installation in the 1940s, PG&E spokesman David Eisenhauer said. Water from the burst pipe caused a crater and triggered a mudslide that left two lanes of Interstate 280 closed for four hours. Sundays rupture was the third pipeline fail-

ure since mandatory testing began last month as part of the utilitys effort to assure regulators its gas system is safe after last years pipeline explosion in San Bruno that killed eight people, left dozens injured and destroyed 38 homes. This is exactly why were doing these types of tests so we can nd any weaknesses in the pipes, Eisenhauer said. The testing is effective to nd these weaknesses. The pipe would normally carry natural gas at a pressure of 300 pounds with a maximum of 400 pounds, but workers were sending water through it at a pressure of 550 pounds, Eisenhauer said. Sundays rupture occurred about 20 miles south on the same pipeline that exploded in San Bruno in September 2010. Federal investigators in a report issued in

September blamed the blast on a litany of failures by PG&E and weak oversight by regulators. Eisenhauer said the section of pipe that ruptured Sunday will be replaced and retested later this week. Carl Weimer, executive director of the Pipeline Safety Trust, a Washington-based safety advocacy group, said Monday that while PG&Es testing is good, its also conrming the publics worst fears that some pipes are bad.

The name turken would suggest that the bird is a cross between a turkey and Timmy a chicken, but that is largely due to the birds appearance and is not the case. It is actually a type of chicken called a Naked Neck or Transylvania Naked Neck common in Europe, but rare in North America, according to PHS. This turken was found in East Palo Alto Oct. 7 by a resident who called PHS/SPCA to provide assistance for an injured baby quail; the bird had a large wound under one wing, and one eye swollen shut. After a few weeks of antibiotics and treatment at PHS/SPCA, the naked neck has fully recovered and is available for adoption, according to PHS. The turken, named Timmy, is approximately two months old and very friendly. The adoption fee is $10, according to PHS. veryone is invited to a concert performance at 8 p.m. Nov. 13, with a portion of the proceeds going to benefit the Sequoia High School sports program and especially the wrestling team.

In support of the Sequoia High School sports programs and wrestling team, there will be T-shirt sales and silent auctions, with a portion of the proceeds going to the school.

Pot advocates sue feds over crackdown


SAN FRANCISCO Attorneys for medical marijuana advocates on Monday sought a temporary restraining order to put a stop to a federal crackdown on California pot dispensaries, claiming the effort by the states four U.S. attorneys is unconstitutional. Plaintiffs asked U.S. District Court Judge Donna Ryu in Oakland to issue an order barring the government from arresting or prosecuting patients, dispensary owners or landlords of properties housing dispensaries. Pot advocates said dispensaries in the San Francisco Bay area would start closing this weekend if a restraining order was not issued. The states four federal prosecutors last month announced a broad effort to close pot clubs, in particular by sending letters to landlords who rent space to pot dispensaries threatening to seize their property under federal drug trafcking laws. Lawsuits led starting Friday in all four of Californias federal court jurisdictions accuse the Department of Justice of entrapping pot providers by reversing its own policy, among other legal issues. Plaintiffs attorneys cited a Santa Cruz County medical marijuana cooperatives agreement with federal prosecutors to dismiss its case against the government because the department issued a memo telling U.S. attorneys to defer to states on medical use of the drug. The lawsuits claim that by introducing the Justice Departments so-called Medical

Marijuana Guidance memo as part of that case, prosecutors were essentially laying out their policy on medical marijuana. They locked themselves in, said San Francisco attorney Matt Kumin, lead attorney on the suits. Based on the memo issued in 2009, other medical marijuana providers in the state could reasonably assume they would no longer face federal prosecution, the suits argue. The conduct of the government ofcials and their statement led the nation to believe that the government had changed its policy in 2009, ensuring that those who comply with state medical cannabis laws would not be subject to federal prosecution, according to the suits. The U.S. Attorneys Ofce for the Northern District of California had no comment, spokesman Jack Gillund said.

Facebook founder returns to Harvard to recruit


By David Klepper
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CAMBRIDGE, MASS. Facebook creator Mark Zuckerberg left Harvard University as a dropout with a novel idea. He returned Monday with a triumphant message: Hes hiring. The 27-year-old CEO received a rock-star welcome during his rst ofcial visit since he left for Californias Silicon Valley in 2004. He made his recruitment pitch to 250 students at Harvard after a similar meeting at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Were just getting started, he told reporters and a few hundred students who gathered at the Harvard campus to catch a glimpse of the Internet pioneer. The next ve or 10 years are going to be about all the different products and industries that can be rethought.

So many students turned out to see the sweatshirted billionaire outside a university library that campus ofcials had to set up temporary barriers to separate him from his audience. Aaron Perez, an 18year-old freshman from Poughkeepsie, N.Y., said Mark Zuckerbergs creation was Zuckerberg one of the reasons he chose to study computer science. He said hes encouraged to hear that companies are hiring computer programmers in todays struggling economy. Its an empowering story, especially these days, said Perez, who risked being tardy to rowing practice to see Zuckerberg. It makes it seem like Ive got a chance. Harvard computing ofcials were working on their own university-wide online directory

when Zuckerberg created Facebook as a campus-only social network. The then-sophomore told the campus newspaper, The Harvard Crimson, it was silly that the university needed years to create the site. I can do it better than they can, and I can do it in a week, he said. An earlier Zuckerberg creation, Facemash, almost led to his expulsion after he hacked university computers for student photos. But there were no hurt feelings Monday, as university officials and faculty welcomed Zuckerberg back to campus for the ofcial visit. Zuckerberg has returned to Harvard before on informal recruiting trips. There are relatively few tech rock stars whose names are known by people all over the world, said Harvard computer science professor David Malan, who cited Microsofts Bill Gates and Apples Steve Jobs as two other examples. He really is in that category.

Woman accuses Cain Transient charged with of bold sexual advance attack on mom,children
By Beth Fouhy and Jack Gillum
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Leaving little to the imagination, a Chicago-area woman on Monday accused Republican presidential hopeful Herman Cain of making a crude sexual advance more than a decade ago when she was seeking his help nding a job. Come clean, Sharon Bialek challenged Cain at a news conference in New York at which she described herself as a face and a voice to support other accusers who have so far remained anonymous. Cains campaign swiftly denied Bialeks account. All allegations of harassment against Mr. Cain are completely false, it said in a written statement. Even so, Bialeks nationally broadcast appearance on cable television marked a new and for Cain dangerous turn in a controversy that he has struggled for more than a week to shed. An upstart in the presidential race, Cain shot to the top of public opinion polls in recent weeks and emerged, however temporarily, as the main conservative challenger to Mitt Romney. Accompanied by her prominent lawyer, Gloria Allred, Bialek accused Cain of making

a sexual advance one night in mid-July 1997, when she had travelled to Washington to have dinner with him in hopes he could help her nd work. She said the two had nished dinner and were in a car for what she thought Sharon Bialek was a ride to an office building. Instead of going into the offices he suddenly reached over and he put his hand on my leg, under my skirt toward my genitals, she said. He also pushed my head toward his crotch, she added. Bialek said she told her Herman Cain boyfriend, an unidentied pediatrician, as well as a longtime male friend about the episode. None of Cains other accusers has provided details as graphic as Bialeks account. But Joel Bennett, an attorney who represents one of them, said her details were similar in nature to what his client encountered.

A 33-year-old transient yanked a womans ponytail and tried to grab a 3-year-old child off a carousel ride outside a Redwood City supermarket before grabbing the toddlers potato chips and eeing, according to prosecutors who charged him with robbery and battery. Brian Adam Christensen approached the woman outside Chavez Supermarket on Nov. 2 where she was with her 2-year-old son and a 3-year-old she was baby-sitting for a friend. Christensen reportedly grabbed the womans hair without warning, asking if she had a problem, before latching onto one childs foot and trying to pull him from a carousel, according to the District Attorneys Ofce. The woman kicked the man, later identied as Christensen, and police reported he grabbed the childs potato chips and walked off.

Redwood City police found Christensen nearby with the chips and arrested him after a struggle in which he spit at and tried to headbutt an ofcer. He also rambled in a bizarre manner to the ofcers, according to the prosecution. Christensen has a lengthy criminal record of both felonies and misdemeanors, said District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe. In this case, Christensen is charged with first-degree robbery, battery and resisting arrest. He asked for a court-appointed attorney and pleaded not guilty. He did not waive his right to a speedy trial and will have a preliminary hearing estimated to last one hour Nov. 17. He remains in custody in lieu of $100,000.

WASHINGTON Embracing veterans, President Barack Obama on Monday urged Republicans in Congress to put country before party and support new ways of helping former members of the military nd jobs in a sluggish economy. Our veterans did their jobs. Its time for Congress to do theirs. Its time for them to put country before party, Obama said in the Rose Garden, flanked by leaders of veterans groups. Ahead of Veterans Day, Obama pressed lawmakers to approve tax credits for businesses to hire unemployed veterans or injured veterans who have been out of work. The Senate is expected to consider the measures this week. The actions are part of a larger effort by the

White House to draw contrasts with congressional Republicans who have opposed Obamas jobs legislation a year before the 2012 election. Obama has signed executive orders aimed at spurring job growth and helping homeBarack Obama owners and college students in recent weeks, saying he does not want to wait for Congress to act. Obama said the administration would act unilaterally to help veterans match their skills to job openings and access job banks. He said veterans could download a Veteran Gold Card issued by the Labor Department that allows former military members to get six months of personalized case management, assessment and counseling at career centers.

Pressure mounts on Italys Berlusconi to quit
ROME Italy became the latest target in Europes nancial crisis Monday, as soaring borrowing rates intensified pressure on Premier Silvio Berlusconi to resign and let a new government reform the countrys spendthrift ways. Silvio Berlusconi Berlusconi batted away reports that he was considering stepping down in favor of early elections, saying they were without foundation. But the prospect of nancial disaster was real because of Italys huge debts and slow growth. Unlike Greece, Ireland and Portugal the three countries that Europe has already bailed out Italys economy could be too large to rescue.

New formula would reduce Social Security increases
WASHINGTON Just as 55 million Social Security recipients are about to get their rst benet increase in three years, Congress is looking at reducing future raises by adopting a new measure of ination that also would increase taxes for most families the biggest impact falling on those with low incomes. If adopted across the government, the ination measure would have widespread ramifications. Future increases in veterans benets and pensions for federal workers and military personnel would be smaller.

ATHENS, Greece Rival Greek political parties were locked in talks to hammer out a historic powersharing deal to secure a (euro) 130 billion ($179 billion) rescue package, but markets remained wary and European leaders kept up pressure by holding back a vital bailout loan. Socialist Prime Minister George Papandreou and conservative leader Antonis Samaras, former college roommates in the U.S, held fresh negotiations on the telephone Monday, hours after reaching the landmark agreement to form a coalition for the next 15 weeks. The new administrations main job will be passing the new bailout package agreed by international creditors on Oct. 27 before holding early elections. Papandreou, who is expected to

resign later Monday, also telephoned EU leaders and German Chancellor Angela Merkel, who were reacting warily to Athens latest political drama. Europe, and the German government too, must be able to see that the Greeks are serious, that it is not just

about announcements but about actions, Merkel spokesman Steffen Seibert said. French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe added: Things are headed in the right direction ... But whats important is that the bailout plan for Greece gets ratied. Greece has survived since May 2010 on a (euro) 110 billion ($150 billion) rescue-loan program from eurozone partners and the International Monetary Fund, but all agree its not enough. A second rescue package has been created in which involves private bondholders have agreed to cancel 50 percent of their Greek debt. Frustrated with Greeces political disagreements, the countrys creditors have frozen the next critical (euro) 8 billion ($11 billion) loan installment until Greece formally approves the new debt deal. The Greek government has said it could go bankrupt within weeks without the money.

Farm-state lawmakers pushing new farm subsidy


By Mary Clare Jalonick
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Corn and soybean farmers are pushing for and Congress is moving to create a whole new subsidy that could maintain farm incomes at a nearly four-decade high should prices fall or crops be destroyed by weather. The new subsidy would protect farmers when their revenue drops. Critics say it is an unprecedented program that could pay billions of dollars to farmers now enjoying

record-high crop prices. The subsidy would take the form of free insurance that would cover farmers shallow crop losses before their paid insurance kicks in. It would replace several other subsidy programs, including direct payments preferred by Southern rice and cotton farmers. Growers get the direct payments regardless of crop yields or prices. They dont even have to farm. The shallow loss insurance programs could begin paying out once a farmers revenue falls by as little

as 5 or 10 percent. Federally subsidized crop insurance, for which farmers pay premiums, would kick in with deeper losses. The income insurance plan has a diverse group of opponents environmental groups that have long argued against farm subsidies, conservatives who say the plan wont save the government much and even one of the nations largest farm groups. The American Farm Bureau Federation says the beefed-up insurance could encourage farmers to make riskier decisions and drive up

the price of land. The chairs of the House and Senate Agriculture Committees are looking at folding the new subsidy into a farm bill proposal they are quietly crafting as part of their charge by the decit-cutting congressional supercommittee to cut farm spending. Chairwoman Debbie Stabenow, D-Mich. and House Agriculture Chairman Frank Lucas, R-Okla. have said they will shave $23 billion from farm and food aid programs over the next decade.

OPINION
Then it hits me. Breakfast. Two minutes later, his belly is full and all is right with the world again. So it went on Sunday when the breath rather than the glare served as reminder. The clock actually read 8:15 a.m. Kind dog, giving me that extra 15 minutes. But then I remembered the time change. Sorry, doggy. Youll have to wait, I told him. He was not amused. Nobody had asked him about this whole shake-up and he certainly wasnt excited about the concept of adjusting his schedule just to make nice with the clock and his weary human mother. For him that day, an hour was an eternity. For me, the hour wasnt much better. Ever try to gently creep into consciousness with large canine eyes blinking just inches from you? Ever try to turn the newspaper page only to have a dog scratching his paw at the other side? Unnerving to say the least. The point is, an hour can be substantial. So, what to do with it? On the edge of Election Day, I could take this extra time for my usual plea to squelch voter apathy and actually have a hand in the daily ins and outs of local politics. Picking a councilmember and opting for a new tax or not has a heck of a bigger impact on daily lives than up-to-the-minute coverage of the GOP straw poll candidates ever will. But Im growing weary of preaching to the choir on one hand and trumpeting to deaf ears on the other. Do what you will; its your choice all the way up to 8 p.m. today. I could use the extra hour to catch up on the latest Kardashian scandal or faux-marriage but I have also grown weary of that nonsense. Just about the time I feel properly armed for a pop culture throwdown, something changes and all bets are off. I need a month of saved hours to keep up. Perhaps Ill take the hour to occupy something. An hour really isnt enough time to formulate a plan or a platform wait, that sounds as if Ill be perfectly prepared. I could ponder the fate of Dr. Conrad Murray. No, thats 55 minutes too much. Same goes for weighing whether the respective allegations about Herman Cain and Justin Bieber are true. An hour isnt enough to do more than make a slightly dent in my chore list, work out the meaning of life or gure out a nancial plan for Greece. Maybe Ill resign myself to the easy stuff like sewing on a few loose buttons. Or better yet, Ill forgo the notion of exploiting the extra hour, readjust my morning schedule to t Rileys incessant begging and forget looking at the hour as a gift. Lets just hope daylight savings time has a return policy.

No time like the present


n hour, an hour. A whole extra hour. When daylight savings time ofcially ended Sunday, we all received the gift of an extra precious 60 minutes. Granted, we also lost that same hour on the back end, plunging the world into darkness just around quitting time, but why focus on the negative? Actually, for all pre-publicity of the annual falling back complete with stern reminders to check the smoke detectors and update the disaster preparedness kits, I forgot. I had remembered earlier in the day when noon still was noon and my television channel guide wasnt yet confused by the pending change. But my mental note to tap-tap-tap the time set button on the alarm before bedtime completely escaped me before drifting off. Riley, the wonder dog, certainly wasnt informed of the change in scheduling, either. I swear, that animal has an internal clock that the international time folks could use to adjust all ofcial timepieces and date lines. If his kibble isnt scooped and the water bowl topped off by 8 a.m. every day, I am duly informed. If Im somehow still in bed, usually jumping up and standing on me works. Maybe a lick with breath that is far from puppy fresh any more. If Im puttering about, coffee cup in hand and sleepy crusty bits in the corners of my eye, there is the stalking. All the way to the front door when I exit to grab the paper. Then to the kitchen for a rell. Then back to the couch where hell sit and simply give the look. What? What is it? I will plea with exasperation. Do you have to go out? You just went out!

Letters to the editor


Uplifting story
Editor, Regarding the story, Finding the potential within through a smile in the Oct. 21 edition of the Daily Journal, thank you for sharing this uplifting story. I have a 38-year-old son who has autism, intractable epilepsy and severe learning disorders. The professional who worked with my son Brandon said he would never be able to live alone. They were wrong. Brandon has been living on his own for the past 13 years. We often talk about smiles and facial expressions. It has been a challenge for him as well. Due to lack of facial expressions, people often misread him. He is misunderstood. We are working on identifying how he feels with how he looks. We really have fun with it. He always ends up laughing. There are some robots that will be coming out soon that will show facial expressions and of course do a million other things. I am looking into buying him one. Yes, the percentage is extremely high for our adults with autism who do not have a job. Today, Brandon is not working due to his seizures. However, he will be busy because my new nonprot called Autism Independence Project will be lming a documentary about Brandon and how he has been able to live on his own in Los Angeles with all his limitations. I believe the lm will bring hope and new ways to look at independence to the autism community. My next book will also address adults and autism and much more. $33 billion, with California responsible for only $9 billion in bonds, the feds providing $17 billion and private investors giving $7 billion. The lie is now out that the actual cost to build is at least $100 billion, a gure that is certain to increase and perhaps even triple. Not a single penny will come from private investors, and the feds will only give $3 billion. And so because rail authority lied to voters and low-balled construction costs by $70 billion, California legislators must kill the boondoggle now or risk voter anger and impeachment. How can Gov. Jerry Brown claim that the 2011 budget was so bad that CSU and UC tuitions were raised 21 percent in one year, state parks and senior centers were closed and convicted felons released to cities, but that there is somehow unlimited cash for a luxury train that only the ultra-rich and business commuters can afford to ride?

The Standard & Poors 500 index rose 7.89, or 0.6 percent, to 1,261.12. Last week the S&P had its rst down week since September. The Nasdaq rose 9.10, or 0.3 percent, to 2,695.25. Worries that Italy could become the next victim of Europes debt crisis kept investors uneasy. Italys borrowing rates spiked Monday to the highest level since the country adopted the euro. Unlike Greece, Portugal or Ireland all of which received nancial lifelines Italy has too much debt to be rescued by its European neighbors. Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi has rejected suggestions that he resign to make way for more cost-cutting. In Greece, the two main political parties agreed over the weekend to share power in a new government after George Papandreou said he would step aside as prime minister. European nance ofcials agreed to release the next slice of bailout money to Greece as long as leaders of the parties agree in writing to carry out austerity measures required by international lenders.

NEW YORK A late rally pushed the Dow Jones industrial average back above 12,000 Monday as investors responded to the latest twists in Europes efforts to control its debt crisis. U.S. indexes were down for much of the day on worries that Italy could become the next country to run into trouble. Stocks turned higher after 2 p.m. Eastern on news that Greece would receive the latest installment of emergency aid as long as the countrys two main parties commit to implementing economic reforms agreed to by the countrys previous government. Investors again reacted to whatever was the latest headline out of Europe. The regions problems have been offsetting optimism about strong corporate earnings in the U.S. and signs of improvement in the economy. Every day it seems like its the butting of heads between whatever the latest rumor is out of Europe with good economic data and corporate earnings, said Karyn Cavanaugh, a market strategist with ING Investment Management. Its overshadowing the fact that earnings are on track to be the best year ever. The Dow rose 85.15 points, or 0.7 percent, to close at 12,068.39. The Dow closed near its highest point of the day

Consumer borrowing up,but card use falls


By Martin Crutsinger
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Americans borrowed more in September to buy cars and attend college, but they charged less to their credit cards for a third straight month. The gures suggest that consumers are growing more cautious about taking on high-interest debt in a weak economy. Total consumer borrowing rose by $7.4 billion in September, the Federal Reserve said Monday. In August, it had fallen by

the most in 16 months. The September increase reected a 5.8 percent increase in borrowing in the category that includes car and student loans. But the category that covers credit card purchases dropped 1 percent after larger declines in July and August. Credit card use has sunk nearly 19 percent since September 2008, the height of the nancial crisis. For many consumers, adding debt with high interest rates is too risky when jobs are scarce, pay raises are few and unemployment has been stuck near 9 percent for more than two years.

Households continue to prefer cash over credit as employment, income and wealth prospects remain feeble, said Gregory Daco, principal U.S. economist at IHS Global Insight. The average annual percentage rate, or APR, on credit cards ticked up for variable-rate credit cards to 14.46 percent and was unchanged at 13.71 percent for fixed-rate credit cards, according Bankrate.com. Auto loans are far cheaper. The average rate for a 48-month new-car loan was 5.31 percent last week.

Judge gives $410M settlement for BofA


By Curt Anderson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MIAMI A federal judge on Monday gave nal approval to a $410 million settlement in a class-action lawsuit affecting more than 13 million Bank of America customers who had debit card overdrafts during the past decade. Senior U.S. District Judge James Lawrence King said the agreement was fair and reasonable, even though it drew criticism from some customers because they would only receive a fraction of what they paid in overdraft fees. The fees were usually $35 per occurrence. Its really undisputed that this is one of the largest settlements ever in a consumer case, said Aaron Podhurst, a lead attorney for the customer class. The settlement became nal a week after Charlotte, N.C.based Bank of America backed off a plan to charge a $5 monthly fee for debit-card purchases. The outcry prompted other major banks, including JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Wells Fargo & Co., to cancel trial tests of their own debit card fees.

Business brief
Dish Network 3Q earnings climb 30 percent
NEW YORK Dish Network Corp. posted another loss of subscribers from its slowly dwindling satellite-TV business, even as larger competitor DirecTV adds to its base. Investors, however, were cheered by the announcement of a $2 per share special dividend. Dish shares rose $1.18, or 5 percent, to close at $24.66 Monday after rising as high as $25.15 earlier. The stock price reects a calculation by investors that the dividend didnt quite make up for the results, which missed analyst expectations. Dish declared a similar $2 per share special dividend in 2009. It doesnt pay a regular dividend.

City rivals meet in CCS volleyball opener


By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The Central Coast Section volleyball tournaments get underway tonight with four county teams in action, with another seven teams taking the oor Thursday night. The Peninsula Athletic League earned a No. 2 (Menlo-Atherton) and No. 3 (Carlmont) seed in Division I, while West Bay Athletic League powers Sacred Heart Prep and Menlo School

received the top seed and No. 3 seed in Division IV, respectively. Aragon is seeded No. 7 in Division II, while Burlingame was given the No. 5 seed in Division III. Crystal Springs received the No. 5 seed in Division V, with Woodside Priory being the top seed in Division V. But no rst round match will hold more local intrigue than the Division III meeting between No. 6 San Mateo (15-12) at No. 11 Hillsdale (18-9), beginning at 7 p.m. tonight. We played them in our opening match (of the

season) and we lost to them, said San Mateo coach Chris Tigno. Its nice to play close to home. We have the higher seed, but the fact we did lose to them will keep us from getting overcondent. The Knights beat the Bearcats in four games in the season opener Sept. 7. Despite having the lower seed, Hillsdale is hosting the match because the Knights are a division winner, having won the PAL Ocean Division championship. Its the Knights rst

CCS appearance in 14 years, since a three-set loss to Notre Dame-Belmont in the rst round in 1997. The Knights werent even assured of a spot in CCS until the nal day of the regular season. Hillsdale went into last weeks matches needing a win over Terra Nova Tuesday and then hoping Sequoia could somehow knock off the Tigers Thursday.

Improbable win for SHP San Francisco could wrap up NFC West crown this month
here is no doubt the Sacred Heart Prep boys water polo team is one of the top programs not only in the Central Coast Section, but in Northern California. But even the most battled-hardened Gator could not have liked the teams prospects in rallying from a seven-goal decit against a Bellarmine squad that is a 22-time Central Coast Section champion and arguably even better than the Gators. Yet thats where SHP found itself in the nals of the West Catholic Athletic League tournament Saturday in Atherton. The Gators fell behind 7-2 at halftime and 9-2 early in the third quarter. SHP, however, rallied to not only force the match into overtime, but to complete the stunning of the Bells with a 14-12 win in double overtime, giving the Gators the top seed out of the WCAL for the Central Coast Section playoffs. [The Gators] were just on cloud nine. Ive never seen them so excited, said SHP coach Brian Kreutzkamp. I dont know if Ive ever been part of a game thats been such a roller coaster. Kreutzkamp said the key to the turnaround started on defense and goalie Will Runkel, who nished the match with 12 saves. With Runkel locking down the Bells, the Gators eld players decided to nally throw caution to the wind and started taking more chances. It was kind of the perfect storm for the comeback. We got a couple of great bounces, Kreutzkamp said. Once we got rolling, it was hard to stop us. After being outscored 7-2 in the rst two periods, the Gators turned the tables in the nal two periods of regulation, outscoring the Bells 9-4, including 5-1 in the fourth period.

SANTA CLARA All along, the San Francisco 49ers have made it clear they intend to reach the playoffs without depending on anybody else to help them get there without watching games late in the season with their fate in limbo and needing one team to beat another. At this rate, San Francisco shouldnt have a problem. The NFC West-leading Niners (7-1) own a commanding ve-game division lead and could lock up their spot in two weeks if they keep winning and Arizona and Seattle both lose their next two. For Frank Gore and all the other 49ers who have never been to the playoffs, let alone on the cusp of a division title, clinching this month would be a thrill. San Francisco could secure the franchises rst playoff spot since 2002 by beating the Cardinals on Nov. 20 at Candlestick Park if all parties cooperate. Thatd be a big thing. One goal, were trying not to let another team have to help us get to the playoffs let us do that so we wont have to sit down Thursday or Monday night and hope for a team to win so this teams got to lose and all that, defensive lineman Ricky Jean Francois said Monday. Were trying to secure a playoff spot now so we dont have to worry about that later in the season. While rst-year coach Jim Harbaugh said last week he would look at the standings in December to determine how many wins his team still needed to reach its goal, he might not have to wait that long. He could have the West won before that must-watch Thanksgiving showdown with his big brother, John, and the Baltimore Ravens back East. San Francisco is 40 on the road for the rst time since 1992, and all of those victories have come in the Eastern time zone. This marks the rst time the 49ers have won at least four games with a 10 a.m. Pacic start in one season since 1990, when the team went 5-0 in such contests. The 49ers are riding their rst six-game winning streak in 14 years after Sundays 19-11 victory at Washington and a win this Sunday at home against the NFC East-leading New York

Giants deal Sanchez to Royals for Cabrera


By Dave Skretta
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

KANSAS CITY, Mo. The Royals traded outelder Melky Cabrera to the San Francisco Giants for left-hander Jonathan Sanchez on Monday, upgrading their rotation and clearing the way for hotshot prospect Lorenzo Cain to get a chance in center eld. It was the second signicant trade involving a starter this offseason. The Atlanta Braves shipped

Derek Lowe to the Cleveland Indians last week. The Royals also received Double-A pitcher Ryan Verdugo in the deal. With a young lineup and plenty of talent still in the minor league system, Royals general manager Dayton Moore was willing to part with Cabrera to ll his

biggest need: starting pitching. Hes a very dynamic lefthanded pitcher, Moore said. His hit rates are very low, his strikeout rates are very high, his walks arent something were overly excited about, but at the same time Melky Cabrera hes very young. Hes somebody our scouts feel is a

breakout candidate moving forward into 2012. The subject of trade speculation for several years, Sanchez threw a no-hitter on July 10, 2009, against San Diego. Only an error by third baseman Juan Uribe kept it from being a perfect game. Giants general manager Brian Sabean said he was never close to moving Sanchez in the past put him on the trading block after the season in hopes

some were even asking whether the 84-year-old coach should step down after 46 seasons on the sidelines. Two Penn State ofcials, Senior Joe Paterno Vice President Gary Schultz and Athletic Director Tim Curley, surrendered on charges that they failed to alert police to the complaint about Sandusky. Schultz and Curley are also charged with lying to the state grand jury that indicted Sandusky. Both stepped down from their posts Sunday, Curley taking a temporary leave and Schultz retiring. They appeared Monday in a Harrisburg courtroom, where a judge set bail at $75,000. They werent required to enter pleas. Pennsylvania Attorney General Linda Kelly said Paterno is not a target of the investigation into how the school ing a sore left ankle. The Giants this week, theyre a great team and theyre coming here and well try to do whatever it takes to get a win. While Harbaughs team is so close to being unbeaten at this stage the 49ers lost 27-24 in overtime to the Cowboys in Week 2 he refuses to evaluate the progress so far. I really dont assess it. We would have liked to have been 8-0 at the handled the accusations. But she refused to say the same for the university president, Graham Spanier. All I can say is again, Im limited to whats conJerry Sandusky tained in the presentment, and that this is an ongoing investigation, Kelly said. State police Commissioner Frank Noonan said that although Paterno may have met his legal requirement to report suspected abuse by Sandusky, somebody has to question about what I would consider the moral requirements for a human being that knows of sexual things that are taking place with a child. He added: I think you have the moral responsibility, anyone. Not whether youre a football coach or a university president or the guy sweeping the building. I think you have a midseason point, Harbaugh said Monday. San Francisco, headed for the franchises rst winning record since 2002, already has one more win than it did in 2010 under red coach Mike Singletary after a shocking 0-5 start. Harbaugh joined Jim Mora, in 2004 with the Falcons, as the only rookie head coaches to lead their team to a ve-game improvement from the premoral responsibility to call us. At a news conference, Noonan and Kelly were peppered with questions about whether Paterno was given details Gary Schultz about what graduate assistant Mike McQueary now the teams wide receivers coach saw on the night of March 1, 2002. The grand jury report said McQueary was in the locker room that night to put away some new sneakers when he heard rhythmic, slapping sounds and looked into the showers.

Penn State sex scandal engulfing revered Paterno


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HARRISBURG, Pa. Time and again, questions about an alleged cover-up of a sex abuse scandal at Penn State circled back to one name: Joe Paterno. Major college footballs oldest, winningest and perhaps most revered coach, was engulfed Monday in a growing furor involving former defensive coordinator and one-time heir apparent Jerry Sandusky, who was indicted on charges of sexually abusing eight boys over 15 years. The Pennsylvania state police commissioner said Paterno fullled his legal requirement when he relayed to university administrators that a graduate assistant had seen Sandusky attacking a young boy in the teams locker room shower in 2002. But the commissioner also questioned whether Paterno had a moral responsibility to do more. On the Happy Valley campus and in the surrounding town of State College,

Exactly what was said during that meeting is unclear from the grand jury record, which states that Paterno called Curley the next day to tell him McQueary had Tim Curley seen Sandusky in the Lasch Building showers fondling or doing something of a sexual nature to a young boy. Paterno released a statement Sunday in which he said he was not told the very specic actions contained in the grand jury report, but that McQueary had seen something inappropriate involving Mr. Sandusky. If this is true we were all fooled, along with scores of professionals trained in such things, and we grieve for the victims and their families, said Paterno, who has not spoken publicly about the matter. His weekly news conference is Tuesday. to put everything together. We just feel like this is a team, its not individual play no more. Its actually a team.

SmokinJoe Frazier dies at 67 of liver cancer


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PHILADELPHIA He beat Muhammad Ali in the Fight of the Century, battled him nearly to the death in the Thrilla in Manila. Then Joe Frazier spent the rest of his life trying to ght his way out of Alis shadow. That was one ght Frazier could never win. He was once a heavyweight champion, and a great one at that. Ali would say as much after Frazier knocked him down in the 15th round en route to becoming the rst man to beat Ali at Madison Square Garden in March 1971. But he bore the burden of being Alis foil, and he paid the price. Bitter for years about the taunts his former nemesis once threw his way, Frazier only in recent times came to terms with what happened in the past and said he had forgiven Ali for everything he said. Frazier, who died Monday night after a brief battle with liver cancer at the age of 67, will forever be linked to Ali. But no one in boxing would ever dream of anointing Ali as The Greatest unless he, too, was linked to Smokin Joe.

You cant mention Ali without mentioning Joe Frazier, said former AP boxing writer Ed Schuyler Jr. He beat Ali, dont forget that. They fought three times, twice in the heart of New York City and once in the morning in a steamy arena in Joe Frazier the Philippines. They went 41 rounds together, with neither giving an inch and both giving it their all. In their last ght in Manila in 1975, they traded punches with a fervor that seemed unimaginable among heavyweights. Frazier gave almost as good as he got for 14 rounds, then had to be held back by trainer Eddie Futch as he tried to go out for the nal round, unable to see. Closest thing to dying that I know of, Ali said afterward. Ali was as merciless with Frazier out of the ring as he was inside it. He called him a gorilla, and left ankle sprain. But the injuries werent enough to dissuade Moore from making a bold move to help his young pitching staff. The 28-year-old Sanchez, who pitched the clincher over the Padres to win the NL West on the nal day of the 2010 season, has had trouble with his command, walking a league-high 96 batters two years ago. But hes largely been able to overcome that with his high strikeout rate. Cabrera rebounded from a disastrous season with Atlanta by hitting .305 with 44 doubles, 18 homes and 87 RBIs in his rst season in Kansas City. He was the rst Royals player with at least 200 hits in a season since 2000 as his improved conditioning paid off at the plate. Hes 27 years old and it looks like hes coming into his own, Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. Hes a guy who can hit at the top of the order, whether its rst or second. He can steal a base, hes athletic and can play anywhere in the outeld.

mocked him as an Uncle Tom. But he respected him as a ghter, especially after Frazier won a decision to defend his heavyweight title against the then-unbeaten Ali in a ght that was so big Frank Sinatra was shooting pictures at ringside and both ghters earned an astonishing $2.5 million. The night at the Garden 40 years ago remained fresh in Fraziers mind as he talked about his life, career and relationship with Ali a few months before he died. I cant go nowhere where its not mentioned, he told the Associated Press. That was the greatest thing that ever happened in my life. Frazier was small for a heavyweight, weighing just 205 pounds when he won the title by stopping Jimmy Ellis in the fth round of their 1970 ght at Madison Square Garden. But he fought every minute of every round going forward behind a vicious left hook, and there were few ghters who could withstand his constant pressure. His reign as heavyweight champion lasted only four ghts including the win over Ali before

he ran into an even more fearsome slugger than himself. George Foreman responded to Fraziers constant attack by dropping him three times in the rst round and three more in the second before their 1973 ght in Jamaica was waved to a close and the world had a new heavyweight champion. Two ghts later, he met Ali in a rematch of their rst ght, only this time the outcome was different. Ali won a 12-round decision, and later that year stopped George Foreman in the Rumble in the Jungle in Zaire. There had to be a third ght, though, and what a ght it was. With Alis heavyweight title at stake, the two met in Manila in a ght that will long be seared in boxing history. Frazier went after Ali round after round, landing his left hook with regularity as he made Ali backpedal around the ring. But Ali responded with left jabs and right hands that found their mark again and again. Even the intense heat inside the arena couldnt stop the two as they fought every minute of every round with neither willing to concede the other one second of the round.

We put Sanchezs name out at the end of the season, and this was the best match. Sanchez was the Giants best pitcher during the latter part of 2010, when they beat the Texas Rangers to win the World Series. He was 4-1 with a 1.03 ERA over his last seven outings, and nished the year with a 13-9 record and a 3.07 ERA.

ALAMEDA With two consecutive losses to division rivals, a penalty count thats quickly approaching triple digits and a run defense that is among the worst in the NFL, Raiders coach Hue Jackson has a long list of issues that need xing. He doesnt have much time to get them corrected, either. Oakland has a short work week in preparation for Thursdays night game in San Diego. Its a game that will either solidify the Raiders rst-place standing in the AFC West or drop them farther into a tailspin that began shortly after the death of team owner Al Davis. Weve got some work to do, weve got some growing to do, Jackson said Monday. Our guys are excited because they know we are 4-4 and still in the thick of this thing. What we need to do is get a win. The Raiders seemed to have a rm grasp on things Sunday when they built a 24-14 lead over Denver midway through the third quarter before the Broncos scored 24 unanswered points to win 38-24. The meltdown in front of a sellout crowd at the Oakland Coliseum followed on the heels of the Raiders 28-0 loss to Kansas City. In both games, Oakland struggled defending the run while racking up penalties 10 against the Chiefs and a season-high 15 in the loss to Denver.

other team in the league has. Some of em are just bonehead mistakes that we need to clean up, defensive tackle Richard Seymour said. We need to eliminate bad football, and thats part of the bad football side of it. You wont win a lot of games (and be) where you want to be at the end of the year if we continue to do this. More concerning was Denvers ability to run the ball. The Broncos rushed for 298 yards, 163 from running back Willis McGahee and 117 from quarterback Tim Tebow who had runs of 32, 19, 12 and 12 while running the option. That kept Oaklands defense on the eld and fueled Denvers comeback. The Raiders also dropped to 29th in the NFL defending the run and are giving up an AFC-worst 5.2 yards a carry. Jackson had vowed to correct both problems earlier this season yet found himself answering the same questions he did back then. I didnt solve it, Jackson said. Very condent teams dont make those kind of mistakes at key times. In the heat of battle theres a good decision and a bad decision. Those are thing we have to continue to harp on, myself to the coaches, the coaches to the players, to get better at. Jackson, who said he long ago reached his boiling point with the two issues, wouldnt rule out making changes to the teams lineup to correct the problems. But with a roster full of injured or limping players, Jacksons options are admittedly limited.

We never thought about CCS (at the beginning of the season). The only thing, at the beginning of the season, I saw a lot of potential in these girls. I told them they had a lot of potential to take this [Ocean Division], Villareal said. To prepare for that, I set up my preseason to play against A teams, so the girls could get a taste of what CCS might be like if we got there. San Mateos bid, while not nearly as precarious, was nevertheless a close call. The Bearcats won four of their last ve PAL Bay Division games, including a huge win over archrival Burlingame to nish in a fourth-place tie with the Panthers in the Bay Division standings. That win and place gave them enough points to earn an at-large bid to CCS. While the match features two city rivals, Tigno is trying to play down that angle to his team. With such a young squad, he is eager to see how his team has grown since that seasonopening loss to the Knights. This season has been all about gaining experience and learning, Tigno said. We had growing curves, but we feel like we improved dramatically over the course of the Bay season. That being said, Tigno doesnt expect to change things up drastically when they face the Knights again. The most important thing is the Bearcats, who have made CCS ve times since 2003, are looking for their rst, rst-round win since 2009. Were not going to change on a dime. Its going to be more of the same: back to basics, smart hitting, Tigno said. If we play consistent, well win. We wont change anything for Hillsdale. We havent won a rst-round match for a couple of years, so I think our seniors want to get to that (second-round) match. Tigno doesnt expect there to be much animosity between the two squads, despite the intra-city rivalry. Tigno admits the Bearcats

The Knights beat the Tigers in ve games last Tuesday and took care of business last Wednesday by beating Capuchino. Terra Nova, which nearly led the division wire-to-wire, suffered its only two-match losing streak of the season when the Tigers were swept by Sequoia in the season nale Thursday, giving Hillsdales the divisions lone automatic bid. I am (excited). We all are, said Hillsdale coach Ricky Villareal. Theyll get nervous a little bit, but I told them their hard work is what got them here. The Knights go into the playoff on a roll, going 7-0 in Ocean Division play the second half of the season.

main rival is with Burlingame and he wishes nothing but success to Hillsdale when the Knights are playing anybody else. We want to win because we want to go forward, not because its HIllsdale, Tigno said. The seeds look funny. Hillsdale is not a C league school. That league (the Ocean Division) those teams are as good as some of the bottom teams of A league teams we play. Its going to be a tough match. Villareal believes that it is a rivalry and the atmosphere will be intense. San Mateo [fans], theyll be there rooting for their team. Playing in San Mateos gym, it can be a bit intimidating, Villareal said. Theyre going to bring their family and friends (to our gym Tuesday). They wont quit. We have to beat San Mateo because Im tired of losing to these guys. Lets show them Hillsdale is the real deal. Were not here on (an at-large) bid, we came here as a league champion.

I kept reminding them its never over. Keep it close, Kreutzkamp said. Just keep it in range, but four goals (decit) is still too many against Bellarmine. The Gators completed the comeback on Bret Hinrichs goal with 1:15 left to play to knot the score at 11. The teams exchanged goals in the rst overtime period but, in the second overtime, Zach Churukian scored what turned out to be the game winner, with Harrison Enright scoring an insurance goal before the end. What made Kreutzkamp especially proud was to see his young team overcome the jitters of playing in a big match and come out on top. We havent played in that many big, big games (with) big crowds, introductions (before the match), Kreutzkamp said. Thats a different level. Bellarmine starts an all-senior experienced team. We start only two seniors. I like the way we recovered. That inexperience on a big stage may have led to the Gators slow start

in the first half. It was a combination of things. We came out way, way too timid. I dont think we were going as hard as we could have, Kreutzkamp said. We didnt play as aggressively as we could have and they buried us. With CCS looming this week, the Gators, sporting the No. 1 seed, will be favored to win their fth CCS Division II title since 2003. Kreutzkamps biggest concern, however, is his team believing that the rest will be easy after getting such a big, emotional win over a Bellarmine team looking for its 23rd Division I championship. A lot of these guys are rst-year varsity players. It would be easier to focus on next year. But these guys want to win and they want to win now, Kreutzkamp said. We can play with anyone, but its also a little scary. We cant get too hung up on this game and say our season is over. *** Sacred Heart Prep swimmer Tom Kremer has orally committed to swim for Stanford next year, the school announced Monday. Kremer set a new Central Coast Section record in the 200-meter freestyle

Police: Russian man kept 29 mummified bodies


By Vladimir Isachenkov
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MOSCOW The Russian historian had always been open about his interest in the dead and eagerly described how he loved to rummage through cemeteries, studying grave stones to uncover the life stories behind them. What he failed to mention, according to police, was that he had dug up 29 bodies and taken them back to his apartment, where he dressed them in womens clothes scavenged from graves and then put them on display. A police video of the mans apartment in the Volga River city of Nizhny Novgorod released Monday shows his macabre collection of what look like dolls. Lifesize, they are dressed in bright dresses and headscarves, their hands and faces wrapped in what appears to be cloth. Police said they were mummied remains. Instructions for doll-making were found in the apartment, police said, and the video showed old-fashioned plastic dolls in frilly

dresses lying about. Police refused to name the suspect arrested last week, but released photographs of him, gave his age as 45 and described him as a well-known specialist in the history of the city about 400 kilometers (250 miles) east of Moscow. Russian media reports identied the man as Anatoly Moskvin, a 45-year-old historian who was considered the ultimate expert on cemeteries in Nizhny Novgorod. Russian newspaper reports quoted police as saying that the man had only selected the remains of young women for his grisly collection. Police said he had photographs and nameplates from grave sites, which could help with the identication of the remains. The arrest followed a long-running investigation into the desecration of graves at several cemeteries in Nizhny Novgorod beginning in 2010, police spokeswoman Svetlana Kovylina said. She did not explain how they tracked him down. Mi Rancho proposes to use for parking. The two-block stretch of B Street leading to Tilton Avenue to the north has many Mexicanthemed restaurants and shops on it, including two small produce markets. Mi Rancho owner Minerva Pulide first came to the city with a planning application to build a new market back in January. The application is currently under review for code compliance and envrionmental considerations. Mi Rancho proposes to demolish the existing building and construct a two-story neighborhood market building with retail on the ground oor and ofce/storage space on the second oor. The entire building will be 13,437 square feet. In 2001, a mixed-use project was approved for the site but it was never constructed. The council considered last night whether it ber of riders would also head to Redwood City. The service will link Caltrain, the Altamont Express, Amtraks Capitol Corridor and BART at a transit center in Union City, according to the San Mateo County Transportation Authority. Reconstructing the rail corridor will require track improvements to 20.5 miles of existing infrastructure including a new moveable rail bridge, a centralized trafc control system and four stations of which one is proposed for Redwood City. Dumbarton rail would use the existing Redwood City Caltrain station behind Sequoia Station and build a new station at

The national daily Moskovsky Komsomolets said Moskvin was detained at a cemetery while carrying a bag of bones. But Kriminalnaya Khronika, an online publication specializing in crime news from the Nizhny Novgorod region, said police investigators discovered the bodies when they visited Moskvin to consult with him about the desecration. Alexei Yesin, the editor of a local newspaper to which Moskvin contributed, told the Associated Press that he was shocked by the reports and couldnt understand how he could have squeezed all the bodies into his apartment, which he shared with his parents. He described Moskvin as a loner who had certain quirks, but said he gave no indication that he was up to anything so strange. I saw no signs of that while working with him, Yesin said in a telephone interview. Moskvin, who long had been known in the region for his interest in the dead, wrote several articles about cemeteries and historic sites in the region. A linguistic expert by trainwas supportive of exploring the potential of granting Mi Rancho the easement and to require the market owners to pay for an independent appraisal to help determine the market value of the city parcel and proposed easement. The council voted informally last night to explore granting the easement to Mi Rancho and have the owners foot the bill for an appraisal, about $8,000. Trags Market co-owner Barbara Lentz told the council at last nights study session that she opposed granting the easement and said Mi Rancho would have troubles handling deliveries on the site, considering its awkward layout and general lack of parking in the area. Trags sits on the same block as the current Mi Rancho and the old laundry site. John Chiappe, with the Peninsula Italian American Social Club, also opposed granting Willow Road in Menlo Park. A new Willow Street station would be built in Newark but the project would use the existing FremontCenterville Station and the existing Union City BART station. Plans for passenger rail service connecting the Peninsula and East Bay really took root in 1994 when SamTrans bought the right-of-way between Redwood Junction and Newark Junction. In 2000 and 2005, the idea was earmarked for funding in the regional transportation plan by the Metropolitan Transportation Commission and environmental analysis work started in 2006. By 2009, the cost effectiveness of the proj-

In a 2007 interview with the newspaper Nizhegorodsky Rabochy, or Nizhny Novgorod Worker, Moskvin said he had begun wandering through cemeteries when he was in the seventh grade. I dont think anyone in the city knows them better than I do, he said. Moskvin claimed that from 2005 to 2007 he had inspected 752 cemeteries across the region, often traveling about 30 kilometers (20 miles) a day by foot. He said he drank from puddles, spent nights in haystacks or at abandoned farms and once even slept in a cofn readied for a funeral. He said he was repeatedly questioned by police, who then always let him go. Just last month, he wrote a piece for a publication on necrology to explain his interest in the dead. He said that when he was 12, he came across a funeral procession whose participants forced him to kiss the face of a dead 11-year-old girl. the market the use of the city-owned parcel because many of the clubs members use the pedestrian walkway from the downtown Caltrain station. The social club shares an alleyway with the old laundry. Chiappe said it would be too dangerous to have pedestrians share the easement with delivery trucks. His vision for the lot is to have it turned into one big parking lot for local businesses on the block. The city-owned parcel is currently used only by pedestrians going to and from the walking bridge at San Mateo Creek to Railroad Avenue.

The city acquired the narrow lot in the late 1990s and it is currently used as a public access way to the downtown Caltrain station. Mi Rancho is proposing that a portion of the city-owned parcel to the east of the laundry site be dedicated for use by the market even though the city will still own the 2,670square-foot alleyway.

Judge:No graphic images on cigarettes


By Nedra Pickler
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON A judge on Monday blocked a federal requirement that would have begun forcing tobacco companies next year to put graphic images including dead and diseased smokers on their cigarette packages. U.S. District Judge Richard Leon ruled that its likely the cigarette makers will succeed in a lawsuit to block the new standard. He stopped the requirement until after the lawsuit is resolved, which could take years. A similar case brought by the tobacco companies against the labels is pending before the U.S. 6th Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati. U.S. District Judge Joseph McKinley upheld most of the marketing restrictions in the law in January 2010. The appeals court heard arguments in the case in July but is not expected to rule for several months. Leon found the nine graphic images approved by the Food and Drug Administration in June go beyond conveying the facts about the health risks of smoking or go beyond that into advocacy a critical distinction in a case over free speech. The packaging would have included color images of a man exhaling cigarette smoke through a tracheotomy hole in his throat; a plume of cigarette smoke enveloping an infant receiving a mothers kiss; a pair of diseased lungs next to a pair of healthy lungs; a diseased mouth aficted with what appears to be cancerous lesions; a man breathing into an oxygen mask; a cadaver on a table with postautopsy chest staples; a woman weeping; a premature baby in an incubator; and a man wearing a T-shirt that features a No Smoking symbol and the words I Quit It is abundantly clear from viewing these images that the emotional response they were crafted to induce is calculated to provoke the viewer to quit, or never to start smoking an objective wholly apart from disseminating purely factual and uncontroversial information, Leon wrote in his 29-page opinion.

Cancer screening tests not as good as previously thought


By Lauran Neergaard
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON It turns out that catching cancer early isnt always as important as we thought. Some tumors are too slow-growing to ever threaten your life. Some are so aggressive that nding them early doesnt make much difference. And todays treatments are much better for those somewhere in the middle. Those complexities are changing the longtime mantra that cancer screening will save your life. In reality, it depends on the type of cancer, the test and who gets checked when. We can nd cancer early. We can reduce the burden of the disease. But along the way, were learning our tests are not as perfect as wed like, says the American Cancer Societys Dr. Len Lichtenfeld, a longtime screening proponent. Were learning that were now nding cancer that would in fact never cause harm. Now cancer specialists are struggling to nd a new balance: to quit over-promising the power of early detection and to help people understand that the tests themselves have risks while not scaring away those who really need it. Least controversial are cervical and colorectal cancer screenings. They can spot pre-cancerous growths that are fairly easy to remove, although even some of those tests can be used too frequently. More serious questions surround other cancers like which men, if any, should get a PSA blood test to check for prostate cancer, and whether women should start mammograms in their 40s or wait until theyre 50. Also in question is whether doctors will be able to head off another looming controversy: Just which smokers and exsmokers should get a pricey CT scan that can detect lung cancer but also is prone to false alarms? A recent study found the scans could save some lives. But guidelines arent due out until early next year that would decide who is at enough risk to outweigh the tests potential harm such as a risky, invasive biopsy to tell if a suspicious spot is cancer or just an old smoking scar. Yet already people like 80-year-old Fred Voss of Sunderland, Md., are seeking out the tests. It was a big relief, and it gave me something to watch, says Voss, who participated in the CT study but wanted to get test-

Studies around the world and evidence presented to the FDA have repeatedly shown that large,graphic warnings, like those adopted by the FDA,are most effective at informing consumers about the health risks of smoking, discouraging children and other nonsmokers from starting to smoke, and motivating smokers to quit. ... Because of that evidence, at least 43 other countries now require large,graphic cigarette warnings.

The cigarette makers say their products have had Surgeon General warnings for more than 45 years, but that they never led a legal challenge against them until these images were approved. Tobacco companies are increasingly relying on their packaging to build brand loyalty and grab consumers. Its one of few advertising levers left to them after the government curbed their presence in magazines, billboards and TV, and the graphic labels could cost them millions in lost sales and increased packaging costs. The cigarette makers that sued the FDA are R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Co. of Winston-Salem, N.C., Lorillard Tobacco Co. of Greensboro, N.C., Commonwealth Brands Inc. of Bowling Green, Ky., Liggett Group of Mebane, N.C., and Santa Fe Natural Tobacco Co. of Santa Fe, N.M. Todays ruling reafrms fundamental First Amendment principles by rejecting the notion that the government may require those who sell lawful products to adults to urge current and prospective purchasers not to purchase those products, Lorillard attorney Floyd Abrams said in a statement. if any, evidence that screening average men improves survival. Thats largely because so many men are diagnosed with slow-growing tumors that never would have killed them; still, they have treatments that can cause incontinence, impotence or even lead to death. We really - underline the word `really have to pull back the messaging on prostate cancer, says the cancer societys Lichtenfeld, who himself isnt sure of the tests net worth. PSA testing took off on the basis of blind faith that they would work, not science, he says. What really worries Lichtenfeld is that ever more powerful cancer screenings are being developed, before doctors have a way to tell exactly which early tumors should be removed. We have cells in our body that are abnormal all the time, and our bodies deal with it, he says. Our technology takes us further and further down the early-detection path, and we need to sort through all this.

ed out that at least some were altered photographs to evoke emotion. The judge also pointed out the size of the labels suggests they are unconstitutional the FDA requirement said the labels were to cover the entire top half of cigarette packs, front and back and include a number for a stop-smoking hotline. The labels were to constitute 20 percent of cigarette advertising, and marketers were to rotate use of the images. Leon said the labels would amount to a minibillboard for the agencys obvious antismoking agenda. The Justice Department argued that the images, coupled with written warnings, were designed to communicate the dangers to youngsters and adults. The FDA declined to comment on the judges ruling, and a spokesman for the Justice Department would not say whether it plans to appeal, only that it is reviewing the ruling.

Matthew Myers, president of the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids, urged the Obama administration to appeal the ruling that he said is wrong on the science and wrong on the law. He said a delay would only serve the nancial interests of tobacco companies that spend billions to downplay the health risks of smoking and glamorize tobacco use. Studies around the world and evidence presented to the FDA have repeatedly shown that large, graphic warnings, like those adopted by the FDA, are most effective at informing consumers about the health risks of smoking, discouraging children and other nonConsider this, she says: The average woman has a 3 percent lifetime risk of dying of breast cancer, a low risk for a disease that women nd so scary. But the chances of getting breast cancer do gradually increase with age and other circumstances. So if youre 40 and have several risk factors like dense breasts and close relatives with the disease then you have the same risk as an average 50-year-old, not an average 40year-old, and might consider earlier mammograms, Mandelblatt says. Few primary-care doctors have the time to go into that kind of detail. Adding to the confusion are testimonials from cancer survivors that a screening saved

smokers from starting to smoke, and motivating smokers to quit, Myers said in a statement. Because of that evidence, at least 43 other countries now require large, graphic cigarette warnings. Congress instructed the FDA to require the labels, following the lead of the Canadian regulations that require similarly graphic images on cigarette packs. Lawmakers approved the measure with wide bipartisan majorities, and supporter Sen. Frank Lautenberg, D-N.J., also urged appeal. Big Tobacco will stop at nothing to keep the cold, hard facts off their cigarette packages, he said in a statement. their lives. Dartmouth researchers recently studied how often thats true for mammograms, and estimated that about 13 percent of women in their 50s whose breast cancer is detected by the tests survive as a result. What else plays a role? Treatments have dramatically improved in recent years, saving more lives. Also, increasingly powerful mammograms are detecting more low-risk tumors, the kind that probably wouldnt have threatened a womans life in the rst place. Still, mammograms are not perfect, but theyre the best we have, cautions Mandelblatt. She thinks the Dartmouth estimate is somewhat low. PSA tests for prostate cancer are a much tougher call. Last month, a government panel recommended an end to routine PSA screenings, a step further than other major medical groups that urge men to weigh the pros and cons and decide for themselves.

It reads like a very handy rule and sounds like it would be very useful and thats my concern, Lampl said. The guide would be easy to use to justify feeding infants less and to unfairly label them as fat. It could also prompt feeding patterns that could lead to obesity later, she said. Lampl noted that many infants studied crossed at least two key points on growth charts; yet only 12 percent were obese at age 5 and slightly more at age 10. Nationally, about 10 percent of preschool-aged children are obese, versus about 19 percent of those aged 6 to 11. Lampl and Edward Frongillo, an infant growth specialist at the University of South Carolina, voiced concern in an editorial accompanying the study in the journal Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, released online Monday. They argue that more research is needed to confirm whether the studys recommendation is really a useful way to ag infants for obesity. The potential to do more harm than good is actually very high, Frongillo said. Taveras said the kind of rapid growth noted in the study should be used to raise awareness about potential risks but is not a reason to put babies on a diet. The study involved 45,000 infants and children younger than age 11 who had routine growth measurements during doctor checkups in the Boston area from 1980 through 2008. Growth charts help pediatricians plot weight, length in babies and height in older kids in relation to other children their same age and sex. Pediatricians sometimes combine an infants measures to calculate weight-for-length the equivalent of body-mass index, or BMI, a height-to-weight ratio used in older children and adults. The charts are organized into percentiles. For example, infants at the 75th percentile for weight are heavier than 75 percent of their peers. The study authors used seven major cutoffs on the charts the 5th, 10th, 25th, 50th, 75th, 90th and 95th percentiles to calculate growth pace. An infant whose weight-for-length jumped from the 19th percentile at 1 month to the 77th at 6 months crossed three major percentiles the 25th, 50th and 75th and would be at risk for obesity later in childhood, the authors said. Larger infants were most at risk for obesity later on, but even smaller babies whose growth crossed at least two percentiles were at greater risk than those who grew more slowly. About 40 percent of infants crossed at least two percentiles by age 6 months. An analysis of more than one-third of the study children found that 64 percent grew that rapidly by age 2. Dr. Joanna Lewis, a pediatrician at Advocate Lutheran General Hospital in Park Ridge, Ill., said she supports the idea that infancy is not too young to start thinking about obesity. Still, she emphasized that rapid growth in infancy doesnt mean babies are doomed to become obese. Its not a life sentence, and there are steps parents can take to keep their babies at a healthy weight without restrictive diets, she said. Lewis said many of her patients are large babies whose parents feed them juice or solid food despite guidelines recommending nothing but breast milk or formula in the rst six months. The study reinforces what we try to tell parents already: Delay starting solids and dont put juice in a bottle, Lewis said.

Babies on obesity path? New sign may offer answer


By Lindsey Tanner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHICAGO Researchers say theres a new way to tell if infants are likely to become obese later on: Check to see if theyve passed two key milestones on doctors growth charts by age 2. Babies who grew that quickly face double the risk of being obese at age 5, compared with peers who grew more slowly, their study found. Rapid growers were also more likely to be obese at age 10, and infants whose chart numbers climbed that much during their rst 6 months faced the greatest risks. That kind of rapid growth should be a red ag to doctors, and a sign to parents that babies might be overfed or spending too much time in strollers and not enough crawling around, said pediatrician Dr. Elsie Taveras, the studys lead author and an obesity researcher at Harvard Medical School. Contrary to the idea that chubby babies are the picture of health, the study bolsters evidence that bigger is not better in infants, she said. But skeptics say not so fast. Babies often grow in spurts and agging the speediest growers could lead to putting infants on diets a bad idea that could backre in the long run, said Dr. Michelle Lampl, director of Emory Universitys Center for the Study of Human Health.

Lewis also advises parents that when starting infants on solid food, have the whole family sit down and eat together. Research has shown that obesity is less common in children raised in families that have frequent meals together at home.

responsibility of the San Bruno Mountain Habitat Conservation Plan and FishNet4C program. The department also operates the Crystal Springs Regional Trail, Devils Slide, Quarry Park and the Pillar Point Bluffs. The departments budget, particularly when it comes to penciling out reductions, is different than other departments because it is not a mandated service and has no minimum service levels. When you look at what can be cut, were one of the ones that can be. And were a smaller organization so these small cuts are actually pretty big, Porter said. To cut approximately $655,000 from its general fund costs, the department already consolidated the director position with Public Works under Porter and moved former Parks Director Dave Holland to the assistant county manager slot. When it came to possible reductions in hours, Porter has recommended closing one park entirely namely, Flood Park during the previous budget conversations rather than trim them at all of them because the minimum staffing doesnt leave enough park rangers to go around. If the funding doesnt come through or the system is asked to cut deeper, Porter said evaluating closures is certainly in the cards as is seriously considering a different model like an open space district. The challenge with the latter is the timeline because agreements take time to hammer out and ratify, he said.

PARKS
Continued from page 1
The county is still facing an ongoing structural decit, upcoming health care reform and a massive jail plan but parks are an important quality of life element, Horsley said. I think we need to nd that money, he said. Pine, too, said parks are really at a breaking point and that he is committed to keeping them open. Rather than just dip into the general fund, though, Horsley thinks it may be time to revisit a tax. Twice, measures for a one-eighth-cent sales tax have failed the two-thirds majority threshold. Horsley thinks a general sales tax earmarked for parks along with public safety, health care and libraries could fare well. We have to make it pretty clear again we have a system of parks that is really unique in the state of California and we need as a community to decide if we want to support what we have, Horsley said. Barring that, Horsley and Pine are both open minded to arrangements with another group like the Mid-Peninsula Open Space District. Pine is ready to commit to a minimal level of funding and would like to see more if possible but the challenge is nding a way to increase revenue, he said. When we look across our budget we have to see if a million dollars or so is something we can afford by reducing that amount somewhere else, Pine said. The Department of Parks has already

looked elsewhere to stay aoat, bringing in grants and donations, forging partnership and relying on volunteers. However, it hasnt been enough. The system needs $14.5 million ideally for annual operations, Porter said. For fiscal year 2012-13, the department needs the $2.1 million for operations, maintenance and capital programs at the fiscal year 2010-11 minimal levels. This total includes Flood Park, which was spared from closure for an extra six months during the June budget hearings but is still at risk. Talks are ongoing with the city of Menlo Park to transfer responsibility of the park but an agreement has yet to be reached. The cost of Devils Slide in scal year 2013-14 adds another $695,480 in operational funding needed and just shy of $2 million in one-time capital funding. Despite funding challenges, the parks department continues to grow and improve. Since 1991, the department has added another 1,924 acres, an extra 58 miles of rail, rebuilt seven playgrounds, managed $24 million in grantfunded capital projects and took over the women being helped were setting up a budget that separates work and family along with not giving products away. At home, students said that the trip has changed their outlook on day-to-day things at home. Colgan, for example, sees herself as being less materialistic. A loan of $200 to $250 can make a difference. Students raise funds throughout the year toward the effort. The idea is they try to fund one micro-loan for every student who will take the trip to Guatemala. There is also fundraising for the trip expenses. Like in previous years, the group plans to participate in a couple of chal-

She was surprised to meet a college-educated woman who was stuck at home and needed the micro-loan to get started. It became more tangible, how it really does help these women, said Colgan, who added it makes the students working on the effort more passionate. Seventeen-year-old Raymundo Archila documented the trip by creating a short video featuring one of the women who was helped. He was struck by the lessons taught during a business class.

The extra time you now have at your disposal will fly by, never to be retrieved again. saGITTaRIus (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Attempting to do only what you can get away with for the moment might be very appealing, but the things you fail to do will quickly catch up with you and cause all kinds of trouble. CaPRICoRN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Underestimating the caliber of your competition is foolhardy.
