    DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
    San Mateo County was not invit-
    ed by the state to apply for up to
    $100 million in jail construction
    funds, money that could have cov-
    ered more than half the buildings
    price tag and slash the ongoing
    debt.
    The California Department of
    Co r r e c t i o n s
    notified local
    o f f i c i a l s
    Wednesday that
    the county was
    not invited but
    could still apply
    anyway. The
    county ranked
    low in part
    because it was
    c o m p e t i n g
    against other
    large counties
    and sends the
    fewest inmates
    to state prisons,
    said Sheriff
    Greg Munks.
    I was very
    optimistic and
    now Im very
    disappointed,
    Munks said,
    saying the
    county was
    e s s e n t i a l l y
    punished for
    its size and
    i ncar cer at i on
    rate.
    The county
    sends approxi-
    mately 560 inmates to state facili-
    ties.
    Deputy County Manager Mary
    McMillan echoed disappointment
    low incarceration was the basis as
    well as the county competing in the
    large county categories. The top
    cutoff for medium size was 700,000
    and San Mateo County has 738,000

    Were your roads and streets dam-
    aged? 13-year-old Abbey Vixie asked
    referring to the aftermath of the March
    earthquake and tsunami in Japan.
    The event made international news.
    For San Mateos Odyssey School com-
    munity, the news caused fear and worry.
    Odyssey has long had a sister relation-
    ship with Tokiwagi, a school in Sendai
    badly damaged by the two natural
    events. Annually, Odyssey students trav-
    el to Japan in the spring while the
    Tokiwagi students visit California in
    October. San Mateo students didnt trav-
    el to Japan last year due to the damage.
    Instead, students created the Tokiwagi
    Sendai Quake Odyssey Relief Fund. But
    the partnership wasnt damaged by
    natures fury. Thirteen girls from Japan
    have been staying with Odyssey families
    and learning about American culture
    since Oct. 22.
    Seventeen-year-old Chiaki Kikuchi
    told Vixie the roads had in fact been
    damaged; then used her laptop to show
    photographs.
    On Thursday, students from both
    schools sat on the oor of an Odyssey
    classroom in two circles simply talking.
    The visiting students will give a talk
    Saturday during which theyll eld ques-
    tions from the community. Children and
    adults alike will provide the questions,
    explained Hiroshi Imase, Odysseys
    Japanese teacher. Odyssey students were
    trying to provide practice questions
    before the event.
    Students from both schools benet
    from the partnership, Imase said. Its a
    chance to practice English and Japanese
    while learning about a different culture,

    Investors guilty
    of rigging real
    estate auctions
    DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
    Three San Mateo real estate investors and one who does
    business in the county have pleaded guilty to rigging public
    foreclosure auctions outside the courthouse in Redwood City
    by agreeing not to bid against each other, according to the
    Department of Justice.
    Troy Kent of San Mateo, Henry Pesah of Burlingame, James
    Doherty of Hillsborough and Laith Salma of San Francisco,
    were among eight Northern California real estate investors
    who pleaded guilty for their roles in two separate conspiracies
    between November 2008 and January 2011.
    The men agreed not to bid against each other for foreclosed
    properties auctioned off outside the county courthouse in
    Redwood City and in San Francisco County. Instead, they kept
    the winning price low which, in turn, federal prosecutors say,
    damaged the real estate market and defrauded those expecting
    a fair marketplace.

    Judge to rule if Burlingame moratorium

    By Heather Murtagh
    DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
    Whether Burlingames temporary ban on wireless communi-
    cation devices applies to a company which applied before the
    councils vote on it will be decided next week, Judge George
    Miram said during a preliminary hearing Thursday morning.
    In September, the Burlingame City Council unanimously
    approved a 45-day moratorium on wireless communication
    devices which also covers previous applications. The tempo-
    rary ban was recently extended another 90 days. Its the action
    of covering applications already in the works which communi-

    Tennessee dog missing for three
    months turns up in Michigan
    ROCHESTER HILLS, Mich. Jim
    Arrighi last saw Petey, his 4-year-old
    Jack Russell terrier, in the backyard of
    his Erin, Tenn., home.
    That was in July, and the 73-year-old
    retired electrician had nearly given up on
    seeing his pet again when he learned the
    dog turned up safe about 500 miles away
    in suburban Detroit.
    A Michigan Humane Society volun-
    teer was expected to return Petey to
    Arrighi Thursday morning.
    This is just a little town and every-
    body is buzzing about it, said Arrighis
    daughter, Tyanne Morrison.
    Most of Erins roughly 7,000 residents
    know one another, and many of them
    would recognize Petey, which is why
    Arrighi, Morrison and their friends sus-
    pect he was pooch-napped by an out-of-
    towner.
    Morrison believes Petey left his yard
    and somebody picked him up.
    We searched. We knew someone had
    gotten him, she told the Associated
    Press by phone on Wednesday. We got
    on 4-wheelers and went all over the
    area. There had been some more dogs
    over the last few months that were miss-
    ing.
    While struggling with the loss of his
    dog, Arrighi also lost his wife, Juanita,
    who suffered from pulmonary disease
    and died Oct. 12.
    Since my mother passed away, even I
    told him why dont we go to the pound
    to give a home to a puppy that dont
    have a home, Morrison said.
    Last week, a homeowner in Rochester
    Hills, about 20 miles north of Detroit,
    saw Petey in his backyard and took him
    to a Humane Society animal care center.
    As it does with every recovered dog
    and cat, the Michigan Humane Society
    scanned Petey for an implanted
    microchip, which led the organization to
    its owner, spokesman Kevin Hatman
    said.
    Arrighi, who has been staying at
    Morrisons home since his wife died,
    was thrilled to receive the call, she said.
    He thinks my mother, who is in heav-
    en, sent the dog back to him, Morrison
    said.
    She said their local veterinarian likely
    recommended Petey get a microchip.
    It was only about $70 total,
    Morrison said. Now, a lot of people are
    inquiring about it.
    The Michigan Humane Society rec-
    ommends that all pet dogs and cats get
    microchips implanted, in addition to
    making sure they have collars and iden-
    tication tags.
    Its wonderful when we see
    microchip reunions, including those that
    seem like miracles, said Marcelena
    Mace, shelter manager at the Rochester
    Hills Center for Animal Care. It really
    proves that no matter how far your pet
    may travel, a microchip can help him
    nd his way home.
    Microchips, which also are implanted
    in pet cats, are about the size of a grain
    of rice and typically injected near the
    animals shoulder blade, said Adam
    Goldfarb, director of pet care issues with
    the Washington, D.C.-based Humane
    Society of the United States.
    The chips do not have their own power
    sources and only can be found and read
    with a scanner.
    Puppy rescued from
    top of train gets new home
    COLUMBIA, S.C. Four reght-
    ers in a South Carolina town plucked a
    frightened black lab puppy from the top
    of a double-decker freight train car and
    delivered her to a new, loving home.
    We dont know how long she was up
    there, Liberty assistant re chief Chris
    Rowland said Tuesday. She was scared.
    She was ready to come down.
    Rowlands team of four reghters
    was called Sunday evening after Tina
    Parker of nearby Pickens spotted the pup
    while she and her family were stopped at
    a red light and saw the train pass by.
    Parker said she saw what she thought
    was trash on the top of the train, but then
    it started moving and she realized it was
    a small dog.
    Theres no question it was a puppy,
    Parker said.
    She called 911 and followed the train
    to Liberty about six miles away.

    DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
    The San Mateo County Times has survived
    its parent companys consolidation ax and will
    continue to print daily editions under its cur-
    rent masthead.
    The Bay Area News Group had planned to
    fold the County Times into a section of the
    San Jose Mercury News starting next week
    after making company-wide layoffs.
    Yesterday, however, BANG announced it
    will continue to print under the County Times
    masthead and also keep the Oakland Tribune
    and Contra Costa Times distinct editions.
    BANG had considered folding several of its
    smaller dailies into larger regional editions
    and was set to turn the Oakland Tribune into
    the East Bay Tribune next Wednesday in a
    cost-saving effort.
    The company announced yesterday it decid-
    ed to abandon those plans but layoffs are still
    coming to its newsrooms across the Bay Area,
    however.
    Companywide, BANG had previously said
    it needed to layoff about 120 employees and
    was considering closing its Walnut Creek pro-
    duction facility.
    About 25 journalists will be laid off next
    week, BANGs Managing Editor Bert
    Robinson told the Daily Journal yesterday.
    The company had originally said it would
    need to let go of about 40 journalists.
    The company decided to keep the County
    Times masthead because readers have a con-
    nection with the newspaper, Robinson said.
    We got a lot of blowback from our readers
    about the mastheads.
    Top BANG ofcials met internally Friday
    about the mastheads before making the
    announcement, he said.
    San Mateo County Times Editor Glenn
    Rabinowitz could not comment yesterday on
    the companys decision to keep the masthead
    intact.
    Staff at the San Mateo ofce did say, how-
    ever, it expects to continue covering local
    issues from an ofce here in the county,
    although it might not be from its current space
    on Ninth Avenue.
    BANG employs about 320 journalists in its
    Bay Area newsrooms and another 1,000
    employees in sales, production and other
    areas.
    The company is looking to save money on
    its print editions and gain more revenue from
    its online and mobile editions.
    Keeping the County Times alive is
    extremely good news on many levels, said
    former Times reporter Marshall Wilson, the
    current public communications manager for
    San Mateo County.
    A vibrant and competitive local media
    writing about local people, events and institu-
    tions helps to connect a community, he said
    in an email to the Daily Journal. I worked at
    the Times when the paper celebrated its 100-
    year anniversary, long before the Internet and
    smartphones dramatically changed the busi-
    ness model. Although no one can say how
    news will be delivered in the future, I think its
    fun to imagine the name living on for another
    100 years.
    The San Mateo County Times was estab-
    lished in 1888.

    Parent company decides paper worth saving
    THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
    LOS ANGELES Two men accused of
    brutally beating San Francisco Giants fan
    Bryan Stow in a Dodger Stadium parking lot
    on opening day should be held liable for
    potentially tens of millions of dollars in a fam-
    ily lawsuit, an attorney who represents the
    team and its owner said Thursday.
    Lawyer Jerome Jackson led a cross-com-
    plaint last week that argues Marvin Norwood
    and Louis Sanchez not the Dodgers are
    to blame for the brain damage that Stow suf-
    fered in March. Both Norwood and Sanchez
    have pleaded not guilty to
    one count each of may-
    hem, assault by means
    likely to produce great

    UPS worker crashes
    motorcycle into light pole
    A 37-year-old Pacifica resident
    suffered major head trauma after
    crashing his motorcycle into a
    light pole around 3:30 a.m.
    Thursday in South San Francisco,
    police said.
    Jorge Marroquin, a UPS worker
    was leaving work, heading north
    on Gull Road when his motorcycle
    hit a raised curb on the side of the
    road and then a light pole adjacent
    to the curb.
    Marroquin struck his head and
    should on the light pole and was
    transported by South San
    Francisco paramedics to San
    Francisco General Hospital.
    Police do not believe speed or
    alcohol were factors in the crash.
    Fire causes
    $20K in damage to home
    A fire caused an estimated
    $20,000 in damage to a house in
    Half Moon Bay Thursday morn-
    ing, according to Cal Fire officials.
    Coastside Fire Protection
    District units responded to reports
    of fire at a one-story house at
    12599 San Mateo Road just before
    9 a.m., according to Cal Fire.
    Arriving firefighters reported
    smoke coming from the house and
    found flames in a rear bedroom
    wall.
    Good Samaritans had apparently
    started to put out the fire before
    firefighters arrived, and the flames
    were quickly contained.
    No one was injured, according to
    Cal Fire.
    Units from the San Mateo
    County Fire Department, the
    Central County Fire Department
    and the Half Moon Bay Volunteer
    Fire Department responded.
    The cause remains under investi-
    gation.

    Changing the school assignments
    of 47 San Mateo homes a move
    that could impact four districts
    nancially was given preliminary
    approval Tuesday but needs to go to
    a vote to be nalized.
    The County Ofce of Education is
    working with County Counsel on
    the next steps and who will need to
    be part of the election.
    Earlier this summer, Mark
    Bendick submitted a neighborhood
    petition to change the school assign-
    ments for the homes on Fairmont
    Drive. Students are currently zoned
    to attend Belmont-Redwood Shores
    Elementary and Sequoia Union
    High school districts. Under the pro-
    posal, students would instead attend
    the San Mateo-Foster City
    Elementary and San Mateo Union
    High school districts. On Tuesday,
    the San Mateo County Committee
    on School District Organization
    gave a preliminary OK to the plans.
    We are extremely pleased with
    the decision that was rendered, par-
    ticularly as the committee was unan-
    imous during its review and
    approval of each of the nine crite-
    ria, Bendick said.
    That decision would be nal if all
    the districts supported the move,
    said Nancy Magee, administrator of
    board support and community rela-
    tions. Only one district, San Mateo-
    Foster City, favors the move.
    Belmont-Redwood Shores and
    Sequoia are both opposed while San
    Mateo Union has decided to stay
    neutral, said Magee.
    To obtain a hearing on the propos-
    al, Bendick gathered signatures
    from 25 percent of the registered
    voters in the area. He previously
    shared his hope that the four dis-
    tricts will be amenable to the change
    noting its a small number of houses
    with none of the children currently
    enrolled in their assigned district.
    The petition aims to move proper-
    ties within 2020 to 2098 on
    Fairmont Drive and 2025 to 2089 on
    Fairmont Drive.
    The location of the homes, by De
    Anza Boulevard and on the north
    side of State Route 92, makes walk-
    ing to the assigned Belmont schools
    difcult. Since the mid 1980s, fami-
    lies have been able to choose which
    of the four districts they would like
    to send their children. Many fami-
    lies in the neighborhood have cho-
    sen to have students attend schools
    in San Mateo.

    The former longtime bookkeeper who
    stole millions of dollars from the San
    Carlos family who employed her was
    sentenced this week to 46 months in
    prison for tax evasion and ordered to pay
    more than $6 million to her victims and
    the U.S. government.
    Ann Ray, also know as Georgia
    Engelhart, must repay her former
    employers $4.76 million and also pay
    the U.S. Internal Revenue Service $1.27
    million for never reporting the embez-
    zled funds as taxable income. Federal
    prosecutors say she hid a total of
    $3,785,773.83 from the IRS during a
    six-year period.
    Ray pleaded no contest in August to
    six felony counts of tax evasion with the
    understanding she would receive the
    prison term and restitution order. On
    Wednesday, Ray was formally sen-
    tenced, according to the U.S. Attorneys
    Ofce.
    Ray, 67, and now living in Antioch,
    worked for 34 years as the bookkeeper
    for several businesses owned by a San
    Carlos family identied as T in court
    records. Federal prosecutors said Ray
    began embezzling small amounts in the
    1980s but the amounts grew to hundreds
    of thousands of dollars each year by
    2004. She continued until May 2009,
    writing checks from the companies
    bank accounts to her personal credit
    cards which she then used for items
    including vacations and gambling. She
    also falsied the books and records and
    created false inter-company transfers,
    according to the plea agreement.
    She was charged July 8 in federal
    court and pleaded guilty July 19.
    Woodside bookkeeper imprisoned for tax fraud
    By Judy Lin
    THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
    SACRAMENTO Gov. Jerry Brown
    on Thursday unveiled his plan for over-
    hauling public retirement benefits
    requiring California lawmakers to tread
    carefully between protecting taxpayers
    and the public employees who serve tax-
    payers.
    While Republican lawmakers were
    cautiously optimistic, Brown received a
    more tepid response from his fellow
    Democrats who hold a majority of seats
    in both the state Assembly and Senate.
    Some public employee union leaders
    who hold a lot of influence in the
    Legislature quickly lined up to oppose
    his plan.
    Some of the governors proposals go
    too far and run the risk of undermining
    retirement security for thousands of
    California school bus drivers, special
    education aides, custodians, school cafe-
    teria workers and their families, said
    Allan Clark, president of the California
    School Employees Association, in a
    statement.
    The Democratic governor is seeking
    to move new state workers to a hybrid
    system where guaranteed benets are
    combined with a 401(k)-style plan. He
    would raise the age civil state employees
    are eligible for full retirement benets
    from 60 to 67.
    Newly hired public safety employees
    would have to work beyond the current
    minimum retirement age of 50 depend-
    ing on their ability to perform the job.
    While Browns plan deals mostly with
    new state hires, he also wants current
    employees to contribute at least half of
    the cost of their pension benets because
    some local government workers current-
    ly put in nothing of their own.
    Applying this is going to take some
    care, Brown said at the state Capitol in
    outlining his 12-point plan. But Ive
    laid out what I think is a minimum that
    every plan in California ought to meet
    at a minimum protects taxpayers
    while being fair to the employees.
    Browns finance director Ana
    Matosantos estimated that changes
    would reduce the states contributions by
    $4 billion to $11 billion over the next 30
    years as the plan is implemented. She
    said all other aspects of government
    from courts and schools to cities and
    counties would see their own savings,
    too.
    The Brown administration said it was
    still working out ner details of the pro-
    posal but the governor said he is asking
    the Legislature to put a measure on a
    statewide ballot so the changes would
    impact both state and local government
    employees.
    Brown unveils pension overhaul
    State lawmakers balance taxpayers, public employees
    Require all new and current employees to
    contribute at least 50 percent of their retirement
    costs,shifting the burden from public employers,
    some of whom currently make the entire
    contribution.This portion of the proposal would
    be phased in.Employers and employees would
    be barred from suspending contributions.
    Form a mandatory hybridrisk-sharing pension
    plan for new employees. New plan would
    include a reduced, guaranteed dened benet,
    a dened contribution portion such as a 401(k)-
    style plan, and Social Security. The goal would
    be to replace 75 percent of an employees salary,
    based on a 30-year career for public safety
    employees, or 35 years for non-public safety
    employees.
    Raise the age state employees are eligible for
    full retirement benets from 60 to 67 to align
    with Social Security.The administration has not
    calculated a minimum retirement age, which is
    currently 55. Raise the retirement age beyond
    the current 50 years for newly hired public safety
    employees to an age based on their ability to
    perform the job and maintain public safety.
    For new employees,calculate pension benets
    based on the highest average annual
    compensation for three years, rather than the
    current one-year system. Benets would be
    calculated based on regular, recurring pay and
    would not include special bonuses, unused
    vacation time or overtime.
    Bar all employees from buying service credits
    known as air time, to boost retirement service
    credit for time not actually worked.
    Add two independent, public members with
    nancial expertise to the board of the California
    Public Employee Retirement System board.
    Replace the State Personnel Board
    representative on that board with the director of
    the California Department of Finance. Brown
    also will recommend that other public
    retirement boards make similar changes.
    Prohibit retroactive pension increases based
    on earlier retirement or higher benet levels for
    all employees.
    Require new state employees to work for 15
    years to become eligible for any state-funded
    health care premiums and 25 years to qualify
    for the maximum state contribution to those
    premiums. State-provided retiree health care
    premium coverage would end at Medicare
    eligibility age, when the state would fund only
    Medicare premium coverage and limited wrap-
    aroundhealth care benets.
    Pension overhaul proposal
    Deficit panel looking
    at benefits and taxes
    By David Espo and Andrew Taylor
    THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
    WASHINGTON Rival decit-cutting plans advanced by
    Republicans and Democrats on Congress secretive supercom-
    mittee would mean both smaller-than-expected cost of living
    benet increases for veterans and federal retirees as well as
    Social Security recipients and bump up taxes for some indi-
    viduals and families.
    The changes would reduce decits by an estimated $200 bil-
    lion over a decade, a fraction of the committees minimum goal
    of $1.2 trillion in savings.
    A nal decision by the panel on legislation to reduce decits is
    still a few weeks off, and given the political difculties involved,
    there is no certainty the 12 lawmakers will be able to agree.
    Sex offender
    addresses tied
    to foster homes
    By Juliet Williams
    THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
    SACRAMENTO More than 1,000 addresses for foster
    homes run by the state Department of Social Services and
    three of Californias county agencies match addresses found in
    the states sex offender registries, according to a state auditors
    report released Thursday.
    The auditors ofce said that three years after it told Social
    Services ofcials to begin using the California Department of
    Justices sex offender registry to identify offenders who might
    be living or working near foster children, the department still
    wasnt checking the database. State Auditor Elaine Howle said
    about 600 of the addresses were tied to high-risk sex offenders.
    The department, which oversees the 58 county child welfare
    programs and more than 85,000 licensed facilities, was noti-
    ed of the matches in July. Since then, Social Services and
    county agencies have investigated 99 percent of the matching
    addresses and found six cases in which registered sex offend-
    ers were living or present at licensed facilities.

    OAKLAND The Iraq War vet-
    eran injured during a clash between
    police and anti-Wall Street protest-
    ers this week wasnt taking part in
    the demonstrations out of economic
    need.
    The 24-year-old Scott Olsen
    makes a good living as a network
    engineer and has a nice apartment
    overlooking San Francisco Bay.
    And yet, his friends say, he felt so
    strongly about economic inequality
    in the United States that he fought
    for overseas that he slept at a protest
    camp after work.
    He felt you shouldnt wait until
    something is affecting you to get out
    and do something about it, said
    friend and roommate Keith
    Shannon, who served with Olsen in
    Iraq.
    It was that feeling that drew him
    to Oakland on Tuesday night, when
    the clashes broke out and Olsens
    skull was fractured. Fellow veterans
    said Olsen was struck in the head by
    a projectile red by police, although
    the exact object and who might have
    been responsible for the injury have
    not been denitively established.
    Now, even as ofcials investigate
    exactly where the projectile came
    from, Olsen has become a rallying
    cry for the Occupy Wall Street
    demonstrators across the nation,
    with Twitter users and protest web-
    sites declaring: We are all Scott
    Olsen.
    In Las Vegas, a few dozen protest-
    ers held a vigil for him. A handful of
    police ofcers attended, and protest-
    ers invited them back for a potluck
    dinner Thursday night.
    We renewed our vow of nonvio-
    lence, organizer Sebring Frehner
    said.
    Another round of vigils were
    organized for Thursday night,
    including one in Oakland.

    THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
    WASHINGTON A summer of
    modest economic growth is helping
    dispel lingering fears that another
    recession might be near.
    Whether the strength can be sus-
    tained is less certain.
    The economy grew at an annual
    rate of 2.5 percent in the July-
    September quarter, the Commerce
    Department said Thursday. But the
    growth was fueled by Americans
    who spent more while earning less
    and by businesses that invested in
    machines and computers, not work-
    ers.
    The expansion, the best quarterly
    growth in a year, came as a relief
    after anemic growth in the rst half
    of the year, weeks of wild stock mar-
    ket shifts and the weakest consumer
    condence since the height of the
    Great Recession.
    The economy would have to grow
    at nearly double the third-quarter
    pace to make a dent in the unem-
    ployment rate, which has stayed near
    9 percent since the recession ofcial-
    ly ended more than two years ago.
    For the more than 14 million
    Americans who are out of work and
    want a job, thats discouraging news.
    And for President Barack Obama
    and incumbent members of
    Congress, it means theyll be facing
    voters with unemployment near 9
    percent.
    It is still a very weak economy out
    there, said David Wyss, former chief
    economist at Standard & Poors.
    For now, the report on U.S. gross
    domestic product, or GDP, sketched
    a more optimistic picture for an
    economy that only two months ago
    seemed at risk of another recession.
    And it came on the same day that
    European leaders announced a deal
    in which banks would take 50 per-
    cent losses on Greek debt and raise
    new capital to protect against
    defaults on sovereign debt.
    Stocks surged on the European
    deal and maintained their gains after
    the report on U.S. growth was
    released. The Dow Jones rose 340
    points to close at 12,209. The Dow
    hadnt closed above 12,000 since
    Aug. 1. The Standard & Poors 500
    index is close to having its best
    month since 1974.
    If higher stock prices lead con-
    sumers to feel more condent about
    their wealth, they may spend more.
    That could help sustain economic
    growth.
    The GDP report measures the
    countrys total output of goods and
    services. It covers everything from
    bicycles to battleships, as well as
    services such as haircuts and doctors
    visits.
    Some economists doubt the econo-
    my can maintain its modest third-
    quarter pace.
    U.S. lawmakers are debating deep
    cuts in federal spending next year
    that would drag on growth. And state
    and local governments have been
    slashing budgets for more than a
    year.
    Obamas $447 billion jobs plan
    was blocked by Republicans, mean-
    ing that a Social Security tax cut that
    put an extra $1,000 to $2,000 this
    year in most Americans pockets
    could expire in January.
    Will it last?

    BRUSSELS European leaders
    clinched a deal Thursday they hope
    will mark a turning point in their
    two-year debt crisis, agreeing after
    a night of tense negotiations to have
    banks take bigger losses on
    Greeces debts and to boost the
    regions weapons against the market
    turmoil.
    After months of dawdling and
    half-baked solutions, the leaders
    had been under immense pressure to
    nalize their plan to prevent the cri-
    sis from pushing Europe and much
    of the developed world back into
    recession and to protect their cur-
    rency union from unraveling.
    World stock markets surged high-
    er Thursday on the news. Oil prices
    rose above $92 per barrel while the
    euro gained strongly a signal
    investors were relieved at the out-
    come of the contentious negotia-
    tions.
    We have reached an agreement,
    which I believe lets us give a credi-
    ble and ambitious and overall
    response to the Greek crisis, French
    President Nicolas Sarkozy told
    reporters. Because of the complex-
    ity of the issues at stake, it took us a
    full night. But the results will be a
    source of huge relief worldwide.
    Sarkozy later called his Chinese
    counterpart Hu Jintao and pledged
    to cooperate to revive global
    growth, but there was no word on
    whether Beijing might contribute to
    Europes bailout fund.
    The funds chief executive is due
    to visit Beijing on Friday to talk to
    potential investors. Beijing has
    expressed sympathy for the 27-
    nation European Union, its biggest
    trading partner, but has yet to com-
    mit any cash.
    The strategy unveiled after 10
    hours of negotiations focused on
    three key points. These included a
    significant reduction in Greeces
    debts, a shoring up of the conti-
    nents banks, partially so they could
    sustain deeper losses on Greek
    bonds, and a reinforcement of a
    European bailout fund so it can
    serve as a (euro) 1 trillion ($1.39
    trillion) rewall to prevent larger
    economies like Italy and Spain from
    being dragged into the crisis.
    After several missed opportuni-
    ties, hashing out a plan was a suc-
    cess for the 17-nation eurozone, but
    the strategys effectiveness will
    depend on the details, which will
    have to be nalized in the coming
    weeks.
    President Barack Obama, who
    had been increasingly pressuring
    Europe to get its act together in
    recent weeks, welcomed the plan
    but pointedly noted that the U.S.
    was looking forward to its full
    development and rapid implementa-
    tion.

    WASHINGTON One out of
    every ve Americans lives in a com-
    munity that pays a for-prot compa-
    ny to install and operate cameras
    that record trafc violations. A pro-
    consumer group says that practice
    could end up putting prots ahead of
    safety and accuracy.
    Some contracts require cities to
    share revenue with camera vendors
    on a per-ticket basis or through
    other formulas. Suffolk County,
    N.Y., for example, diverts half of the
    revenue from its red-light camera
    program to its vendor, according to
    the report being released Thursday
    by the U.S. Public Interest Research
    Group.
    Another type of agreement
    conditional cost-neutral contracts
    also contain provisions that link
    payments to the number of tickets
    issued, although the payments are
    capped, the report said. Under these
    contracts, local governments pay a
    monthly fee to a camera vendor. If
    ticket revenues fail to cover the ven-
    dors fee in any given month, cities
    may delay payments.

    WASHINGTON Good news
    for seniors: The government says
    Medicares basic monthly premium
    will rise less than expected next year,
    by $3.50 for most.
    It could be good, too, for President
    Barack Obama and Democrats strug-
    gling for older Americans votes in a
    close election.
    At $99.90 per month, the 2012 Part
    B premium for outpatient care will
    be about $7 less than projected as
    recently as May. The additional
    money that most seniors will pay
    works out to about 10 percent of the
    average Social Security cost-of-liv-
    ing increase theyll also be due.
    Some recently enrolled younger
    retirees will actually pay less. They
    were charged $115.40 a month this
    year, and theyll see that go down to
    $99.90.
    The main reason for lower-than-
    expected premiums seems to be the
    connection between Social Security
    COLAs and Medicare. Some also
    cite a moderation in health care costs.
    Medicare premiums up
    but not as much as expected
    We have reached
    an agreement, which I believe lets
    us give a credible and ambitious and
    overall response to the Greek crisis.

    months before the rst votes in the

    We havent said no, but were

    spokesman Mark Miner said
    Thursday. There are numerous
    15, 16, 17 debates, and were tak-
    ing a look at each one and were mak-
    ing the appropriate consideration.

    Doubting Thomas
    Editor,
    For those doubting Thomas Elliot of
    San Mateo (Internet communication
    published in the Oct. 21 edition of the
    Daily Journal) who questions the valid-
    ity of Tonopah Solar receiving a $737
    million loan from the federal govern-
    ment, all you need to do to fact check
    is search online by typing, Tonopah
    Solar receives federal loan, and oodles
    of stories will pop up.
    If Mr. Ellitot can not manage, allow
    me to help. Simply go to capolitical-
    news.com and there it is. But perhaps
    that is too right wing of a source and
    therefore unreliable. Okay, go to
    www.8newsnow.com. They have it too.
    Not good enough? How about the
    source of the loan? Go to federalregis-
    ter.gov.
    In so far as Nancy Pelosis brother-
    in-law being the number two man at
    Pacic Corporate Group (PCG), he is
    listed on its website. Really. Go see.
    And yes, Tonopah Solar is a subsidiary
    of California-based SolarReserve. And
    yes, PCG is an investment partner with
    SolarReserve.
    There is one thing Elliot was right
    about. As an elected ofcial, I am care-
    ful to check my sources. That said, we
    all make mistakes and I can stand to be
    corrected when Im wrong. But really,
    Mr. Elliot should do some sluething
    before he implies I simply goosed an
    online story to make the Obama admin-
    istration, Senator Harry Reid and the
    former Speaker of the House, Nancy
    Pelosi, look bad.

    Families not FARs
    Editor,
    Keep families in Redwood City. The
    Residential Hillside Zoning Codes as
    proposed by Redwood City planning
    staff will drive families out of
    Redwood City (Development rules
    cause ire in the Oct. 19 edition of the
    Daily Journal). The Floor Area Ratio
    (FAR) house size restrictions that city
    staff wants to impose on homeowners
    in the hills will prevent families from
    adding on to their homes to make room
    for a new baby or to take care of an
    aging parent. Ive lived in Redwood
    City for more than 60 years and weve
    never needed these kinds of restrictions
    on existing homes before, which is why
    we have such a vital, family-oriented
    community.
    Planning staff should take out the
    FAR restrictions in the proposed RH
    Zoning Code and allow the current lot
    coverage code to remain in place so
    that Redwood City will continue to be
    a family-friendly community not
    one that is suffocated by government
    restrictions that prevent residents from
    investing in their homes and properties.

    Letters to the editor
    I
    n June 2010, the San Mateo
    County Community College
    District asked voters to pass a par-
    cel tax measure that would cost proper-
    ty owners $34 a year to provide $6 mil-
    lion a year for local students education.
    State budget cuts had their way with
    the district at a time when many were
    using the districts three campuses to
    obtain their associate of arts degree or
    get job training. That need has not
    changed. The need for such educational
    resources is now at a premium. County
    voters were generous with the measure
    and with previous bond measures that
    helped shift the shape of the campuses
    and provide new facilities. In 2001, vot-
    ers approved the $207 million Measure
    C and, in 2005, they approved the $468
    million Measure A.
    Now, the district is asking voters to
    approve Measure H, which would gen-
    erate $564 million in bonds for addi-
    tional improvements to the campuses of
    Skyline College, the College of San
    Mateo and Caada College. The cost
    would be approximately $12.90 a year
    per $100,000 assessed value of a prop-
    erty. For a $500,000 house, that would
    equal $64.50 a year. District ofcials
    contend the bond is needed because the
    state has eliminated all matching fund-
    ing for facilities improvements and that
    a portion of the money would go to a
    sinking fund for equipment replacement
    that is currently taken from the general
    fund. That amount is approximately $1
    million to $2 million which would then
    be freed up for general classroom
    expenses.
    The countys three community col-
    leges are a tremendous resource and
    demand for the classes provided at the
    school are at an all-time high. However,
    saddling the electorate with an addi-
    tional debt for improvements on top of
    bond measures already passed is not the
    right choice right now. And the small
    amount that would be freed up for gen-
    eral expenses does not justify the
    tremendous expense of such a large-
    scale bond that will take years to pay
    off. A better alternative right now might
    have been to pass an additional parcel
    tax to fund staff or a signicantly
    smaller bond that would create a sink-
    ing fund for equipment replacement so
    additional resources could be placed
    directly into the classroom.
    The worst-case scenario if Measure H
    does not pass is that the district would
    not have access to that $1 million to $2
    million a year and that students would
    have to study in state-of-the-art build-
    ings paid for with previous bonds next
    to ones that are 50 years old. For now,
    thats a scenario we should be able to
    live with particularly in these tough
    times when many property owners are
    facing increased expenses along with
    diminishing income.
    No on Measure H
    A new day in San Carlos
    By Andy Klein
    A
    pproximately two years ago, when I was elected
    to the San Carlos City Council, we were faced
    with a very difficult decision. We could continue
    to cut the city budget and city services and still possibly
    face bankruptcy. Or we could restruc-
    ture our city and find a way to provide
    services that would be, not only eco-
    nomically feasible, but sustainable long
    term as well. After two public work-
    shops in March 2010, I, along with my
    fellow councilmembers, decided to take
    the road less traveled and began to
    restructure our city. Since that time, I
    have written two other guest perspec-
    tives. In my first guest perspective, San Carlos at a
    Crossroads, I detailed the tough economic situation that
    San Carlos faced and how, after a decade of continual cuts,
    the City Council had begun to look at other options. In my
    second guest perspective, The New San Carlos, I
    described the decision to restructure our government and
    detailed the successful partnerships we had established
    with the San Mateo County Sheriffs Office and Gachina
    Landscaping.
    Now, after just over a year of exploring ways to fix our
    structural deficit, the city of San Carlos finds itself with a
    budget surplus and a bright financial future. San Carlos
    was able to save money through a variety of partnerships
    and employee concessions. The partnership between the
    city of San Carlos and the San Mateo County Sheriffs
    Office saves $2 million annually while increasing police
    services and the police presence in our town. The contract
    San Carlos has with Gachina Landscaping saves $600,000
    annually while increasing the maintenance to our parks.
    Our current city employees each gave back 5 percent to 8
    percent of their salaries and benefits, saving the communi-
    ty more than $500,000 annually. However, even with all of
    these changes, we still needed more to correct the budget
    deficit. The final piece of the puzzle was the dissolution of
    the Belmont-San Carlos Fire Department and the return of
    the San Carlos Fire Department.
    San Carlos had been well served for more than 30 years
    by the South County Fire Department that was renamed to
    the Belmont-San Carlos Fire Department in 2007. The
    decision to dissolve the joint fire department came down
    to cost. San Carlos could not afford to pay the sharply ris-
    ing expenses (more than 30 percent in just five years) dur-
    ing an economic downturn when the citys revenues were
    flat and in some cases dropping. The lack of control of
    these rising costs and how fire services were delivered
    made looking for a new way to provide the service
    absolutely vital. After a number of public meetings, public
    input and debate, the City Council voted 5-0 to bring back
    the San Carlos Fire Department and share its management
    with Redwood City. This new partnership would save San
    Carlos $1 million annually and save Redwood City another
    $1 million per year while maintaining current fire service
    levels and provide an opportunity for enhanced fire servic-
    es down the road. On Oct. 1, San Carlos was proud to
    launch the new city fire department. San Carlos has high
    hopes for this great partnership with our longtime friends
    in Redwood City. Specifically, we want our fire depart-
    ment to be fiscally sustainable, mutually beneficial for San
    Carlos and Redwood City, and deliver a high level of qual-
    ity service throughout the community.
    None of the decisions or changes made were easy for the
    council or the community. However, after the loss of four
    revenue measures, these changes are what the public
    demanded and we have delivered on their request to live
    within our financial means. Now, after more than a
    decade of cutbacks and budget deficits, San Carlos finds
    itself on the other side of the storm. We have begun by
    adding more police services, building a new playground
    and creating more opportunities for public input and out-
    reach. Adding services and repairing infrastructure is now
    a welcome conversation in San Carlos. It has been too
    long since we have been able to give proper attention to
    these issues.
    Special thanks is owed to the city staff of San Carlos,
    the San Mateo County Sheriffs Office, the staff of the San
    Carlos Fire Department, the staff and Council Members in
    Redwood City and the Redwood City Fire Department.
    Without these talented people none of this would have
    been possible. Finally, I want to give a thank you to the

    THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
    NEW YORK An agreement to con-
    tain the European debt crisis electried
    the stock market Thursday, driving the
    Dow Jones Industrial average up nearly
    340 points and putting the Standard &
    Poors 500 index on track for its best
    month since 1974.
    Investors were relieved after European
    leaders crafted a deal to slash Greeces
    debt load and prevent the crisis there
    from engulfing larger countries like
    Italy. The package is aimed at preventing
    another nancial disaster like the one
    that happened in September 2008 after
    the collapse of Lehman Brothers.
    But some analysts cautioned that
    Europes problems remained unsolved.
    The market keeps on thinking that its
    put Europes problems to bed, but its
    like putting a three-year old to bed: You
    might put it there but it wont stay
    there, said David Kelly, chief market
    strategist at J.P. Morgan Funds.
    Kelly said Europes debt problems
    will remain an issue until the economies
    of struggling nations like Greece and
    Portugal grow again.
    Commodities and Treasury yields
    soared as investors took on more risk.
    The euro rose sharply against the dollar.
    Stronger U.S. economic growth and
    corporate earnings also contributed to
    the surge. The government reported that
    the American economy grew at a 2.5
    percent annual rate from July through
    September on stronger consumer spend-
    ing and business investment. That was
    nearly double the 1.3 percent growth in
    the previous quarter.
    Banks agreed to take 50 percent losses
    on the Greek bonds they hold. Europe
    will also strengthen a nancial rescue
    fund to protect the regions banks and
    other struggling European countries
    such as Italy and Portugal.
    This seems to set aside the worries
    that there would be a massive contagion
    over there that would have brought
    everything down with it, said Mark
    Lamkin, head of Lamkin Wealth
    Management.
    The Dow Jones industrial average
    soared 339.51 points, or 2.9 percent, to
    12,208.55. That was its largest jump
    since Aug. 11, when it rose 423.
    All 30 stocks in the Dow rose, led by
    Bank of America Corp. with a 9.6 per-
    cent gain.

    Inc. said Thursday its net income rose 5
    percent in the third quarter as sales of its
    HIV drugs continued to rise.
    Gilead said its net income grew to
    $741.1 million, or 95 cents per share,
    from $704.9 million, or 83 cents per
    share. Excluding one-time charges the
    company said it earned $1.02 per share.
    Revenue rose 10 percent, to $2.12 bil-
    lion from $1.94 billion.
    Analysts had forecast a prot of $1.01
    per share and $2.11 billion in revenue,
    according to estimates compiled by
    FactSet.
    Revenue from the companys HIV
    drug Atripla grew 7 percent to

    Gilead 3Q net grows 5 percent
    By Ryan Nakashima
    THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
    LOS ANGELES Video game
    maker Electronic Arts Inc. said
    Thursday that its second-quarter loss
    expanded from a year ago due to higher
    costs, even as revenue grew.
    It raised its sales forecast for the all-
    important holiday season slightly above
    analyst estimates. CEO John Riccitiello
    said sales of Battlefield 3, which
    launched two days earlier, were very
    strong.
    The net loss in the three-month period
    ending on Sept. 30 grew to $340 million,
    or $1.03 per share. Last year, the compa-
    ny had a quarterly loss of $201 million,
    or 61 cents per share. EA said costs for
    marketing, research and development
    increased from last year.
    Excluding stock compensation costs,
    acquisition expenses and other costs,
    adjusted earnings came to 5 cents per
    share, beating the adjusted loss of 4
    cents per share expected by analysts
    polled by FactSet.
    Adjusted revenue, which accounts for
    deferred revenue from games with
    online components, rose 17 percent to
    $1.03 billion from $884 million, helped
    by sales of its sports games FIFA 12
    and Madden NFL 12. That also beat
    the $955 million expected by analysts.
    Our results reected a tremendous
    performance by our EA Sports titles and
    a strong showing on a new game on the
    Facebook platform, The Sims Social,
    Riccitiello said on a conference call with
    analysts. Were now focused on our
    biggest title for the holiday.
    The company said it expects adjusted
    revenue in the current quarter through
    December of $1.55 billion to $1.65 bil-
    lion, with the midpoint slightly higher
    than the $1.59 billion expected by ana-
    lysts.
    EA lifted the bottom end of its full-
    year adjusted earnings. It now expects a
    range of 75 cents to 90 cents, instead of
    70 cents at the low end. Analysts were
    already expecting 89 cents.
    The results didnt satisfy investors
    after a broad rally by stocks Thursday.
    Shares in the Redwood, Calif.-based
    company were down 80 cents, or 3.3
    percent, at $23.50 in after-hours trading
    after closing up 11 cents at $24.50 in the
    regular session.
    Electronic Arts 2Q loss expands
    By Chris Kahn
    THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
    Higher oil prices have masked a slow-
    down in production among the biggest
    oil companies.
    Exxon Mobil, Royal Dutch Shell and
    BP reported a surge in quarterly prots
    this week even though theyre producing
    less oil from elds around the world,
    including a combined 7 percent decline
    in the third quarter that just ended. Each
    company has devoted billions of dollars
    to nding new petroleum deposits, but it
    could be years, even decades, before
    those investments translate to more oil
    and natural gas.
    Experts say smaller companies will
    need to step up to satisfy growing world
    demand. China, India and other develop-
    ing nations are expected to push the
    global appetite for oil to a record 90 mil-
    lion barrels per day next year, enough to
    outstrip supplies.
    Three years ago, a severe drop in oil
    supplies helped push oil prices to above
    $147 per barrel, saddling airlines and
    shipping companies with high fuel costs.
    Gasoline prices soared above a national
    average $4 per gallon.
    Were not at the point where oil prices
    are going to go bananas and spike like
    they did in 2008, said Ken Medlock, an
    energy expert at Rice University.
    Higher prices boost Big Oil 3Q profits
    3Q profit surges at
    Deckers, maker of UGG boots
    GOLETA Deckers Outdoor Corp.
    said Thursday that third-quarter prot
    rose 48 percent on higher sales of its
    UGG boots. The results beat expecta-
    tions, and the company raised its fore-
    cast for full-year earnings.
    AMD 3Q beats Street
    SUNNYVALE Chip-maker
    Advanced Micro Devices Inc. said
    Thursday that it had a prot in the third
    quarter, reversing a loss, thanks to strong
    demand for chips in laptops and from
    emerging markets like China and India.

    ALL BUT OVER: WITH ONE WEEK TO PLAY, M-A VOLLEYBALL ALL BUT WRAPS UP BAY TITLE WITH SWEEP OF CARLMONT >>> PAGE 12
    By Julio Lara
    DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
    As a football team, there isnt a
    better place to be than in the drivers
    seat. And Friday night, the two
    teams at the top of the Peninsula
    Athletic League Lake Division nd
    themselves in a position to grab the
    proverbial steering wheel and drive
    straight into the Central Coast
    Section playoffs.
    When youre Carlmont and
    Capuchino, battling for that lone
    CCS playoff berth, that is an awe-
    some thing.
    Its all at stake for Cap too, said
    Carlmont coach Jason Selli. I think
    for Cap, this is their championship
    game as well. So, like I told you
    guys last week, every game is a big
    game. Its huge for Cap and theyre
    doing very awesome this year.
    Carlmont comes into the contest
    3-0 in league play, following a pre-
    season where they went winless and
    had many doubters relegating them
    to the bottom of the division with-
    out ever taking the eld. The same
    can be said about Capuchino, who
    is 2-0 behind a couple of mega-
    ultra-Godzilla-like games by run-
    ning back Justin Ewing.
    Thats the beauty of high school
    football, Selli said. I mean, that
    you can keep coaching, you keep
    pushing forward, you have to go
    through your daily grind no matter
    what your preseason schedule is and
    just try to keep getting better.
    Hopefully you put yourself in a
    position where the kids are having a
    good time and youre competitive
    and you get games like this which
    are exciting.

    Sacred Heart Prep (2-1 PAL Bay,
    6-1 overall) at Menlo-Atherton (3-
    0, 5-2), 7 p.m.
    The Gators are coming off a
    tough 21-20 win over Kings
    Academy last week. The Bears
    topped Jefferson 21-7. Sacred
    Heart Prep has beaten M-A the last
    two years 28-24 last year and 48-
    14 in 2009. Last week was the
    second in a row in which Sacred
    Heart Prep squeezed by an oppo-
    nent for a win. In their last two
    games against Burlingame and
    Kings Academy the Gators have
    won by a combined four points.
    After averaging 31.6 points in their
    rst ve games, the Gators are aver-
    aging 19.5 in their last two.
    Since throwing for a combined 598
    yards in back-to-back games, SHP
    QB Jack Larson has combined for
    just 128 yards passing in his last
    two games. Conversely, the
    Gators ground attack has re-found
    its groove, rushing for a season-high
    309 yards last week. M-A rushed
    for 270 yards and three TDs in its
    win last week, led by Taylor
    Mashacks 135 yards and two
    scores on just 12 carries. A Bears
    win tonight would setup a show-
    down for the Bay Division title
    against Terra Nova next week.
    While the M-A offense gets a lot of
    the praise, its the Bears defense
    that is shutting down opponents.
    They have the Bay Divisions best,
    allowing just over 13 points in
    league play and under 17 points for
    the season. The Bears are riding
    a four-game winning streak.
    Burlingame (0-3 PAL Bay,2-5 over-
    all) at Jefferson (0-2,1-6),7 p.m.
    The Panthers suffered their sec-
    ond-straight heartbreaking loss,
    dropping a 35-28 decision to divi-
    sion-leading Terra Nova last week.
    The Indians kept M-A defense in
    check most of the game, but didnt
    have enough offense, falling 21-7.
    The time is now for both these
    squads. The Bay Divisions fourth
    automatic CCS berth is up for grabs
    and the winner of this game will
    have the inside track to capturing it.

    ST. LOUIS David Freese
    homered to lead off the bottom of
    the 11th inning, and the St. Louis
    Cardinals forced the World Series to
    a Game 7 by rallying from two-run
    decits against the Texas Rangers in
    the 9th and 10th on Thursday night.
    Freese hit a
    two-run triple
    just over a leap-
    ing Nelson
    Cruz to tie the
    score 7-7 in the
    ninth inning
    against Neftali
    Feliz. Then,
    after Josh
    Hamilton put
    Texas ahead with a two-run homer
    in the 10th off Jason Motte, Ryan
    Theriot hit an RBI groundout in the
    bottom half and Lance Berkman
    tied it 9-9 with a single.
    Freeses shot to center came off
    Mark Lowe.
    Game 7 is Thursday night.
    Texas had built a 7-4 lead in the
    seventh when Adrian Beltre and
    Nelson Cruz hit consecutive home
    runs off Lance Lynn, and Ian
    Kinsler added an RBI single off
    Octavio Dotel.
    Allen Craigs second homer of
    the Series cut the gap in the eighth
    against Derek Holland.
    In the ninth, Albert Pujols dou-
    bled with one out off Feliz and
    Berkman walked on four pitches.
    Craig took a called third strike,
    and Freese fell behind in the count
    1-2. He sliced an opposite-field
    drive, and when Cruz jumped, the
    crowd of 47,315 at Busch Stadium
    couldnt tell at first whether he
    caught it.
    Feliz then retired Yadier Molina
    on a yout to right, sending the
    game to extra innings.
    With Texas ahead 3-2 in the
    Series and one win from its rst
    title, the Rangers also wasted 1-0, 3-
    2 and 4-3 leads. The Cardinals made
    three errors in a Series game for the
    rst time since 1943, and Rangers
    rst baseman Michael Young made
    two, with each team allowing two
    unearned runs.
    Matt Holliday was picked off in
    the sixth at third base by catcher
    Mike Napoli, thwarting the
    Cardinals attempt to go ahead, and
    he had to leave the game because of
    a bruised right pinkie.
    Hamiltons RBI single had put the
    Rangers ahead in the rst off Jaime
    Garcia, Berkmans two-run homer
    gave the Cardinals the lead in the
    bottom half and Kinslers run-scor-
    ing double tied it 2-all in the third.
    Cruz reached when Holliday
    dropped a yball leading off the
    fourth and came home when Napoli
    singled for his 10th RBI of the
    Series. Berkman then got to rst on
    a throwing error by Young starting

    LOS ANGELES The name on
    the back of Jerry Rice Jr.s UCLA
    jersey is an awfully heavy thing for a
    walk-on receiver to carry on his
    shoulders.
    The Bruins are grateful it hasnt
    slowed him down at all, because its
    time to see what the son of the NFLs
    greatest receiver can do.
    After nearly
    three years on
    the practice
    squad doing the
    grunt work
    expected from
    any walk-on,
    Rice is expected
    to play in the
    Rose Bowl for
    the rst time on
    Saturday when the Bruins host
    California.
    Ive been pretty mentally pre-
    pared for a long time, Rice said
    after ditching his practice-squad
    gear and wearing his own jersey
    No. 88, not his dads famed No. 80
    during practice this week.
    I know the playbook a lot, but its
    going to be different, Rice said. I
    know when it gets closer to the
    game, Im going to get more anx-
    ious, more excited, more nervous, all
    those things will come up, so I make
    sure to keep level-minded and be
    ready for anything.
    Rices opportunity arose after four
    top UCLA receivers Taylor
    Embree, Randall Carroll, Shaquelle
    Evans and Ricky Marvray were
    suspended by the Pac-12 for partici-
    pating in a brawl last week at
    Arizona. The Bruins roster is envi-
    ably deep with receivers, but the sus-
    pensions put Rice onto the depth
    chart right behind starters Nelson
    Rosario and Josh Smith.
    Jerry has a golden opportunity,
    UCLA coach Rick Neuheisel said.
    Jerry Rice Jr. has done everything
    weve ever asked him to. He just
    needed an opportunity, and now hes
    got one. Hell play every play if we
    ask him to.
    Rice has been hard at work to earn
    this opportunity ever since arriving
    at UCLA in 2009. His coaches and
    teammates say he has none of the
    attitude or entitlement that might be
    expected from the namesake of the
    San Francisco 49ers Hall of Famer,
    and his talent has grown to the point
    that he earned a scholarship for next
    year.
    If you didnt know his name was
    Jerry Rice, you wouldnt know he
    was his son, UCLA quarterback
    Kevin Prince said. Hes just a real-
    ly cool guy, a great teammate.
    Obviously, when your dad is the best
    receiver to ever play, youre going to
    know the position, and youre going
    to know how to play. ... Hes got
    good hands and good route-running
    skills. I think hell t in just ne. He
    doesnt have quite the speed that
    Randall has. He doesnt use his body
    like Taylor does, but he has the abil-
    ity to catch the ball and get open.

    For a team that was 11-0 heading
    into the leagues nal three games
    of the season, the Menlo-Atherton
    girls volleyball team knew there was
    still some things it needed to work
    on.
    So the Bears reminded themselves
    of that.
    Heading into Game 3 of their
    match up against Carlmont, the
    Bears broke their huddle by yelling,
    nish.
    A large part of volleyball is
    momentum, said M-A coach Jen
    Wilson. And last year, our team
    struggled with being able to nish
    and being able to execute. And this
    year, that has been one of our big
    focuses, really knowing how to n-
    ish the last ve points of a game. We
    needed to focus, not let it slide and
    not play sloppy just because we
    have a lead playing at a high
    level all the time.
    For the 2011 season, the Bears
    appear to be a playing a level above
    the league competition. Thursday,
    they had a second--place, one-loss
    Carlmont team on their schedule
    and, with the exception of Game 1,
    made it look relatively easy, defeat-
    ing the Scots 25-23, 25-13, 25-20.
    The win for the Bears moves them
    a clear two games ahead of the Scots
    with only two games left in the reg-
    ular season.
    The last few practices, weve
    really worked on staying com-
    posed, Wilson said. And really
    stepping up in situations where its a
    big game and we really need to
    come out and play hard. Weve also
    been working on, as a team, being
    more aggressive. Not necessarily
    aggressive hitting, but being aggres-
    sive just in our attitude really try-
    ing to be strategic with every play.
    Theyre playing smarter, theyre
    seeing the court, theyre adapting
    and making changes during the
    match like they need to do. Its help-
    ing us a lot.
    A focused and determined Bears
    team is a dangerous one. They
    appeared to start Game 1 that way,
    managing a ve-point lead through-
    out. But M-A hit a snag that almost
    cost them the game. Down 20-14,
    Carlmont caught re and changed
    all they way back, eventually earn-
    ing a 22-20 advantage. It took an Ali
    Spindt kill to restore order, and
    some hitting errors down the stretch
    by Carlmont cost them the game
    and the momentum.
    I thought all three games were
    the same, said Carlmont coach
    Chris Crader. We played really
    well in stretches, and we played
    really poorly in stretches. And in the
    rst game, our really well stretch
    was a little longer and they didnt
    play well in a stretch there. Overall,
    I didnt prepare us well enough to
    do what we needed to do.
    After taking Game 1, the Bears
    took control from the get-go in
    Game 2 and didnt let go. They built
    a 4-0 lead behind the play of Sarah
    Collins. Sarah Altman and Pauli
    King had huge kills in the middle of
    that game which the Bears won
    comfortably 25-13. King led the
    Bears with four kills in the frame.
    In their rst match up this season,
    Carlmonts Shelby Vance led all
    players with 20 kills. In Thursdays
    showdown, it appeared the M-A
    defense keyed on the Scots star out-
    side hitter.
    Shes a great player all the way
    around, Wilson said. She can hit
    from the back row, she can pass
    well. So we just tried to overload
    her. We tried to serve to her so she
    had to think about passing before
    they had to think about hitting. We
    really tried to have our blockers
    focused on her, penetrate the net and
    just get in front of her and take her
    out of the game.
    The strategy worked, with Vance
    getting her numbers (12 kills), but
    not taking over the game like she is
    known to do.
    Game 3 was a little closer, but
    only for a bit, with M-A maintaining
    a seven-point lead through much of
    the game before winning it 25-20
    and sweeping the match.
    M-A sweeps Scots
    Last year, our team struggled with being able to
    nish and being able to execute. And this year,
    that has been one of our big focuses, really
    knowing how to nish the last ve points of a game.

    For the Scots and the Mustangs, they dont
    get much more exciting than Fridays game.
    They Daily Journal Game of the Week kicks
    off at 3 p.m. today at Carlmont.
    Carlmont has found success in the regular
    season by playing some stout defense. In three
    games against San Mateo, Mills and
    Hillsdale, the Scots have held their opponents
    to an average of 13 points per game. In their
    four preseason losses, that number was 33.
    Theyll have their hands full on defense this
    week, trying to contain running back Justin
    Ewing, who in two PAL regular season games
    has averaged 42 carries, 299 yards and three
    touchdowns.
    They have one hell of running back, Selli
    said. Hes an awesome kid. Obviously, we
    want to do whatever we can to stop him and
    their passing offense.
    Watching him on lm, I feel hes the best
    back weve faced in the league, maybe even
    all year to be quite honest, he said. Hes a
    positive back. What I mean by that is, if you
    watch him, it doesnt matter if one yard or two
    yards or three yards, he just keeps grinding it
    out every single play the same. His attitude is
    great. He nishes every run off all the way and
    he have to commend a kid like that. Thats
    whats making them so great right now.
    But the Scots have done a commendable job
    in stopping some great Lake Division backs
    already. In San Mateos Michael Latu, the
    Scots held him to only 40 yards rushing. And
    the Scots put a cap on the high-powered
    Hillsdale offense just a week ago.
    Some of that recent defensive success can
    be credited to the play of Joe Lasala, a two-
    way player for Carlmont who most recently
    has stepped his game up on defense. But that
    is direct correlation to the rushing success of
    guys like Marquise Harris and Mark Concilla,
    who have taken the load off Lasala on offense.
    I think its great having him fresh on
    defense, Selli said of No. 44. I think it also
    has to do with football shape. He was off last
    year and didnt play. He worked hard in the
    offseason. And hell be the rst to admit he
    wasnt in football shape, ready to take on a
    two-way role. He plays hard every single play.
    He never takes a play off.
    Both teams will try to impose their will run-
    ning the football Friday afternoon. While
    Ewing will get the bulk of the load for Cap,
    Carlmonts approach is more about spreading
    the wealth.
    Its going to play itself out, Selli said.
    You never really know whats going to hap-
    pen when the game starts, so you just kind of
    go with it.
    The play on the eld may be unpredictable,
    but the magnitude of this game isnt in ques-
    tion. If Carlmont wins, they have a loss to give
    with a tough match-up against an El Camino
    team who could possibly come in with only
    one loss the following week. If Capuchino
    wins, two games await, one against Hillsdale
    and the other against Mills who is struggling
    to stay healthy and hasnt won a league game.
    They understand the importance of it,
    Selli said of his team. Weve talked about it
    in our preparation for this week. Weve spent
    a lot of time looking at what are all the posi-
    tives about Capuchino. You dont have to say
    too much to get your guys focused on the
    importance of the game when you see a qual-
    ity opponent like Capuchino, a well-coached
    opponent. I told the guys theyre coming in
    ready to rock and roll and they have a back to
    do it. Our guys are excited, and they feel good
    about the team, but were denitely not over
    condent.

    Freese dropped Hamiltons popup

    Young lined a pitch from Fernando
    Salas to the gap in left-center. An
    error by Young on Hollidays sixth-
    inning grounder was followed by
    three straight walks, including two
    by Alexi Ogando.
    Colby Lewis allowed four runs
    two earned and three hits in 5 1-3

    Texas got far better swings against
    Garcia than it did in Game 2, when
    he allowed three hits in six shutout
    innings. This time, he gave up ve
    hits and two walks, throwing 59
    pitches, and seven of the rst 13
    Texas batters reached base.
    Just 24 of the 61 previous teams

    35-14 outscored the Tigers 14-0 in the fourth
    quarter to put a scare into Terra Nova.
    Jefferson was held to just 14 yards rushing,
    but QB Marcel Evans threw for 250 and the
    Indians only touchdown. The Indians have
    he worst scoring offense in the Bay Division.
    In league games, they are averaging less than
    nine points per game. Their overall mark isnt
    much better, averaging right around 14 points
    per game for the season.
    Menlo School (1-2 PAL Ocean,5-2 overall)
    at Aragon (2-1, 6-1), 7 p.m.
    The Knights earned their rst Ocean win of
    the season last week, downing Sequoia 42-28.
    The Dons won their second straight divi-
    sion game last week, a 35-20 win over
    Woodside. Menlos sophomore QB Jack
    Heneghan continues to impress. He threw for
    over 360 yards and four TDs in last weeks
    win. The 42 points scored was a season
    high for the Knights, which has scored a com-
    bined 42 in their previous two games both
    losses. Aragon continues to have the best
    ground attack this side of Serra. Last week,
    the Dons rushed for 323 yards, led by Victor
    Jimenezs 105 yards and three TDs on 21 car-
    ries. Aragons 35 points was its second-
    largest output of the season, behind a season-
    opening 50 the Dons hung on San Mateo.
    Since Ocean Division play started, the Dons
    are scoring an average of 31 points while
    allowing 24.
    Sequoia (1-2 PAL Ocean,4-3 overall) at Half
    Moon Bay (3-0, 4-3), 7 p.m.
    The Cherokees suffered a debilitating 42-28
    loss to Menlo last week. The Cougars won
    a wild 22-19 decision over South City.
    Since opening Ocean play with a 32-28 win
    over Aragon, Sequoia has dropped two
    straight and three of its last four. The
    Cherokees racked up over 300 yards on the
    ground last week, led by Josh Laueses 209
    yards on just 18 carries. He had scoring runs
    of 20 and 73 yards. The Sequoia defense
    has given up 42 points the last two weeks, its
    worst performances of the season. Half
    Moon Bay was, once again, led by Wes
    Walters on both offense and defense. He
    rushed for 174 yards and three TDs, but also
    broke up a potential game-winning pass in the
    end zone on the nal play of the game. It was
    the second week in a row the Cougars needed
    to make a nal defensive stand to secure the
    win.

    Kings Academy (0-2 PAL Bay, 3-4 overall)
    at Terra Nova (3-0, 5-2), 7 p.m.
    The Knights came up just short against
    Sacred Heart Prep last week, falling 21-20.
    The Tigers got past Burlingame, 35-28.
    Kings Academy decided to roll the dice and
    go for a 2-point conversion against the Gators
    last week and lost the gamble. Knights RB
    Booker Robinson rushed for a team-high 142
    yards on 15 carries and also caught the TD
    pass that got his team within a point with
    under two minutes to play. In their nal
    two non-league games before division play
    started, the Knights scored a combined 102
    points, both wins. In their last two games
    both losses the Knights have scored a total
    of 41 points. No one on the Terra Nova side
    believed the Tigers played all too well in their
    win over Burlingame, despite putting up 35
    points. Senior QB Chris Forbes threw for
    only 199 yards last week. He did rush for
    four TDs, however. According to the teams
    that report their stats to MaxPreps.com,
    Forbes leads CCS in passing with over 2,000
    yards.
    Woodside (1-2 PAL Ocean, 4-2-1 overall)
    at South City (1-2, 5-2), 7 p.m.
    The Wildcats dropped a 35-20 decision to
    Aragon last week. The Warriors suffered a
    gut wrenching 22-19 defeat to Half Moon
    Bay. Woodside was without ve starters in
    their loss last week. QB Ricki Hoffer and
    WR Byron Castillo did their best to pick up
    the slack. Castillo, arguably one of the fastest
    players in the PAL, nished with six catches
    for 136 yards and two TDs. Hoffer was 16 for
    30 for 269 yards. He threw the two scoring
    passes to Castillo and rushed for another.
    South City racked up 438 yards of total
    offense, but once again, found it tough to
    punch it into the end zone. The Warriors,
    after opening the season with ve straight
    wins, have now dropped two in a row. After
    averaging 30 points per game in their rst ve
    wins, the Warriors have averaged just over 20
    points in their two losses.
    Hillsdale (1-2 PAL Lake, 2-5 overall) at
    Mills (0-2, 1-6), 3 p.m.
    The Knights lost to undefeated Carlmont
    35-21 last week. The Vikings were drilled
    by El Camino, 41-14. After tying the score
    at 7, Hillsdale gave up three straight scores
    and trailed Carlmont 28-7 at halftime. The
    Knights managed only 223 yards of total
    offense, with QB Yannis Tsagarakis throwing
    for 157 yards and a TD. Mills QB Harshal
    Lal returned to the lineup, after missing sever-
    al weeks with an injury, and threw two late TD
    passes. He threw for 76 yards 75 of which
    came on the two scoring plays.
    San Mateo (0-3 PAL Lake, 0-6-1 overall) at
    El Camino (2-1, 4-3), 3 p.m.
    The Bearcats were outscored in a 41-32 loss
    to Capuchino. The Colts ran over Mills last
    week, 41-14. This game could turn into an
    offensive shootout. San Mateo rolled up
    502 yards of total offense last week, with QB
    Trevor Brill throwing for 401 yards and ve
    TDs. WR Andrew Ho had a monster game,
    catching 10 passes for 226 yards and four
    touchdowns. In three of their last four
    games, the Bearcats have scored 46, 33 and 32
    points. In those games, theyve allowed 54, 42
    and 41. El Camino RB D.J. Peluso ran
    roughshod over Mills last week, rolling to 214
    yards rushing and scoring ve TDs. The 41
    points scored was a season high for the Colts.
    Tigers can clinch at least co-title with win

    NEW YORK Security personnel at NFL

    Smallest Scion ever debuts iQ minicompact
    By Ann M. Job
    THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
    Where is the rest of the car?
    Just about everyone asked this question
    when they saw Scions newest car, the iQ.
    New for 2012, the three-door Scion iQ
    hatchback is 10 feet long from bumper to
    bumper thats almost 2 feet shorter than a
    Fiat 500 and has a rear end that seems
    abruptly cut off aft of the rear wheels.
    Classied as a minicompact and weighing
    only 2,172 pounds with a 94-horsepower
    engine, the iQ also is the top gasoline-pow-
    ered, non-hybrid, 2012 small car in federal
    government fuel economy rankings.
    Specically, the iQ, which comes with a
    continuously variable transmission, is rated at
    36 miles per gallon in city driving and 37 mpg
    on the highway.
    And while the iQ interior is rather Spartan,
    add-on accessories galore promise imagina-
    tive customizing of this little car by young,
    urban hipsters.
    Starting manufacturers suggested retail
    price, including destination charge, for the
    2012 iQ is $15,995.
    This is $820 more than the starting retail
    price for a 2012 Honda Fit and $300 less than
    the starting retail price for a 2012 Ford Fiesta

    hatchback. Both competitors are larger than
    the iQ, provide more space for cargo and rear-
    seat passengers, offer more than one transmis-
    sion and have more powerful engines.
    Even the diminutive and arguably cuter
    2012 Fiat 500 hatchback, with $16,000 start-
    ing retail price, is bigger in interior volume
    and has a more powerful engine than the iQ.
    The rst new Scion model since 2004, the
    iQ is new to the United States. But Toyota has
    sold it for years overseas where extremely
    small cars are popular and the iQ blends in.
    Still, on American roads, amidst pickup
    trucks and sport utility vehicles, the iQ is an
    anomaly.
    I drove it defensively, because the rst few
    times on the road, other drivers cut me off,
    and I wasnt sure they saw the iQ coming up
    in the lane next to them.
    Even knowing the iQ comes standard with
    11 air bags one is the worlds rst rear win-
    dow air bag and meets U.S. crash require-
    ments, I remained aware that the iQ was light-
    weight. It can be buffeted by winds on stormy
    days, and theres not a lot of sound insulation,
    so I could hear noisy trucks and motorcycles
    as they approached, even with all the windows
    of the test iQ closed.
    Theres an odd sensation sitting behind the
    wheel because theres so little of the iQ
    behind the drivers seat, I sometimes felt like
    I was following the front of the car around the
    turns.
    The iQ needs only 12.9 feet to do a U-turn.
    In making my rst U-turn in the iQ, I was so
    used to needing to turn more, I nearly did a
    donut instead of a U-turn. But I easily
    turned around on narrow city streets to nab
    parking spaces.
    Wider and longer than the Smart cars but
    similar in overall shape, the iQ is perfect for
    slipping effortlessly into tiny parking spots in
    the city that bigger vehicles cant claim.
    Anyone with a small garage at home will love
    the way the iQ ts inside. In my traditional
    two-car garage, I gure I could t four iQs.
    But the get up and go of the iQ powertrain
    can be disappointing, and most small cars in
    this country have at least 100 horsepower.
    In contrast, the iQs 1.3-liter, double over-
    head cam four cylinder puts out 94, and it can
    sound like its straining at 55 miles an hour,
    especially if the highway has some elevation
    changes.
    Some of this is the transmission, which
    seeks to maximize fuel economy by operating
    in the optimal gear range for the load and
    speed of the car. It sent droning sounds to the
    test car interior.
    Torque in the iQ peaks at 89 foot-pounds at
    4,400 rpm, so the car doesnt feel sporty even
    in city driving. In comparison, the Honda Fits
    1.4-liter four cylinder puts out 117 horsepow-
    er and 108 foot-pounds of torque, while the
    Ford Fiestas 1.6-liter four cylinder generates
    120 horses and 112 foot-pounds of torque.
    My mileage was 75 percent city travel and
    25 percent highway. And I averaged between
    29.5 mpg and 31.7 mpg. With a fuel tank
    holding 8.5 gallons, this meant my driving
    range was just over 300 miles.
    Surprisingly, standard wheels and tires on
    the iQ are larger than expected 16-inchers.
    Because they are positioned at the outermost
    corners of the car and the iQ is relatively
    wide, the car has a more stable feel than you
    might anticipate.
    Theres no room for a spare tire in the iQ.
    The car comes with a tire repair kit, instead.
    I liked that the electric power steering in the
    test car responded quickly.
    But rear seats seemed imsy and are space-
    constrained, and rear-passenger head
    restraints are positioned very close to the back
    window.
    Cargo space totals 3.5 cubic feet behind the
    rear seats about enough for a thin briefcase
    and purse. Cargo space expands to 16.7 cubic
    feet with rear seats folded down.
    In the test car, there were no hooks to help
    hold bags back there in place, the center con-
    sole didnt have covered storage, and the inte-
    rior had a liberal amount of hard plastic trim.
    Theres also no glovebox. Instead, a tray is
    under the front passenger seat, which is slight-
    ly offset to be able to be moved closer to the
    windshield than the drivers seat so one of the
    two rear passengers can get more legroom.

    DAILY JOURNAL SENIOR CORRESPONDENT
    SPLENDID MAHARAJA. A diamond as
    big as an ice cube. A ruby like a strawberry.
    An emerald the size of an olive. The word
    maharaja evokes an image of a bejeweled
    and turbaned ruler, whose authority is
    absolute, whose wealth is immense, who
    indulges in a lavish lifestyle. The word
    maharaja conjures up images of spectacle.
    But that is only a part of the picture. The
    Asian Art Museums Maharaja: The
    Splendor of Indias Royal Courts explores
    the extraordinary culture of princely India,
    showcasing rich and varied objects that
    reect different aspects of royal life.
    Although Hindu and Muslim rulers were
    also known by other titles, including maha-
    rana, maharao, nawab and nizam, the word
    maharaja, which means great king, came to
    be used as a generic term to describe all of
    Indias kings. The heyday of the maharajas
    began after the collapse of the Mughal
    Empire in the early 18th century. The exhibi-
    tion opens with this period of chaos and
    adventure and closes with the end of British
    rule in 1947, when the Indian princes terri-
    tories were incorporated into the modern
    states of India and Pakistan.
    Jay Xu, Director of the Asian Art Museum,
    said, Maharaja reveals the extraordinary
    culture of Indias kings. It showcases differ-
    ent aspects of royal life through rich and var-
    ied objects from India and the West. With
    lavish artistry and exquisite craftsmanship,
    each object in the exhibition tells a story
    within a broader historical context of royal
    life and ideals, patronage, alliances and court
    culture.
    On display are 200 important Indian and
    Western works, featuring paintings, photog-
    raphy, textiles and dresses, jewelry, jeweled
    objects, metalwork and furniture, all pertain-
    ing to the intriguing world of Indias rulers
    over three centuries. Outstanding among the
    items on display are the Patiala necklace
    designed by Cartier, which originally con-
    tained 2,930 diamonds, including the yellow
    234.69 carat DeBeers diamond; the famed
    throne of the Sikh ruler Maharaja Ranjit
    Singh; and a horse drawn carriage decorated
    entirely in silver, made for the Maharaja of
    Bhavnagar in 1915. These sensational works
    explore the broader historical context of
    princely life and ideals, patronage, court cul-
    ture and alliances.
    MAHARAJA FAMILY ACTIVITIES.

    NEW YORK Herbie Hancock was
    a music video trailblazer: In 1984, he
    garnered ve trophies at the rst MTV
    Video Music Awards for his Rockit
    video, which featured robot-like sculp-
    tures moving in sync with the songs
    turntable scratching.
    Now more than 25 years later, hes
    experimenting with a new technique for
    making a music video.
    On Wednesday night, cameras were
    handed out to 25 photographers pro-
    fessionals and hobbyists alike who
    shot continuously as Hancock per-
    formed his funky Chameleon on the
    keytar, a synthesizer keyboard that he
    straps over his shoulder like a guitar.
    Were doing something really spe-
    cial, said Hancock in an interview
    before performing a brief set with his
    quartet before invited guests. What
    theyre going to do is make a ip book
    (of photographs) thats going to sync to
    the music.
    Its like the audi-
    ence is going to make
    the music video.
    Thats why its
    crowd-sourced.
    The 71-year-old
    Hancock made the
    video, due to be
    released in early
    December as part of
    a Canon promotional
    campaign, during a
    break from his rst U.S. solo tour with-
    out any other musicians accompanying
    him on stage. Hancock did a brief
    European tour in the 80s playing solo
    acoustic piano, but this time hes rein-
    venting the solo concept with all kinds
    of high-tech gadgetry.
    Im able to have both the acoustic
    piano and a synthesizer and my iMac
    computer, said Hancock, who studied
    electrical engineering in college. Im
    actually using some devices that right
    now are really on the cutting edge. I have
    a controller board with buttons, knobs,
    faders and sliders in order to manipulate
    some sound clips.
    Its been working out really well
    because it has freed me up to be my own
    drummer and bass player. ... Im not
    bound by keeping a particular rhythm or
    a particular time sequence, he said. I
    have the capability of being much more
    cinematic with a live performance.
    Hancock is closing out his fall tour
    next month with three concerts in
    Calgary, Alberta; Portland, Ore., and
    Seattle, at which he will be performing
    Rhapsody In Blue on acoustic piano
    with a symphony orchestra. The inspira-
    tion came after he performed a portion
    of the George Gershwin masterpiece
    with classical pianist Lang Lang at the
    2008 Grammy Awards, where he also
    surprisingly won album of the year hon-
    ors for River: The Joni Letters.
    I determined that its time for me to
    go back to my roots of classical music
    and to explore that now in my adult life
    as a professional musician, said
    Hancock, a child prodigy who per-
    formed a Mozart piano concerto with the
    Chicago Symphony Orchestra at age 11.

    PINHAO, Portugal When
    Dominic Symington looks out from
    his shady hillside garden across the
    vineyards of Portugals majestic
    Douro Valley, he sees centuries of
    family and European history.
    British families like the
    Symingtons have been at the heart of
    this northern Portuguese regions
    port wine trade for generations.
    Dominic Symington, one of seven in
    the family wine business, has an
    ancestor Walter Maynard who
    shipped port to Britain in 1652.
    Port, Symington says in an impec-
    cable British accent, is a way of
    life for his family and tens of thou-
    sands of farmers along the River
    Douro.
    The syrupy after-dinner drink has
    long been a hallmark European prod-
    uct, like Parma ham, Greek feta or
    French champagne. The business has
    withstood foreign and domestic
    wars, economic depressions and a
    19th-century plant blight that wiped
    out many of the continents vine-
    yards.
    The 21st century is no less chal-
    lenging. Shifting consumer fashions
    and nancial crises in places where
    port has always sold well have
    crunched earnings and cast a cloud
    over the trades future. That is forc-
    ing producers to step outside their
    comfort zone and explore distant
    new markets.
    After a decade of slow but steady
    decline, annual revenue last year was
    (euro) 44 million lower than in 2000,
    at (euro) 370 million, and 12 million
    fewer bottles were sold compared to
    that year, according to the
    Association of Port Wine
    Companies, an industry group.
    The trade is clearly going through
    a difcult time, said the 55-year-old
    Symington, who describes himself
    as Portuguese born and bred.
    Port producers are trying to put the
    brakes on their slide, and some 100
    kilometers (60 miles) down river
    from Symingtons riverside house at
    Pinhao theres a glimpse of where
    part of the solution could lie.
    By the docks in Gaia, where the
    Douro meets the Atlantic and where
    sailing ships once departed heavy
    with wine barrels, two dozen middle-
    aged Brazilian tourists chatter
    delightedly at a port tasting. They
    have just been on a tour of a port
    lodge a warehouse containing
    thick 19th-century ledgers tidily kept
    with quill pens and where wine slow-
    ly matures in aged vats made of oak,
    mahogany and chestnut.
    Aparecida Gilioli, a tour operator
    from Curitiba in Parana state, reck-
    ons the social aspirations of booming
    Brazils swelling middle class will
    broaden the market there for top-
    drawer goods like port.
    Its a sophisticated drink. Its
    chic, she said.
    Buckingham Palace usually serves
    port at state banquets, and it was on
    the menu when Queen Elizabeth II
    hosted President Barack Obama in
    May. That kind of patronage lends
    port distinction.
    Part of the trades problem is that
    about 80 percent of production has
    traditionally been swallowed up by
    ve main markets France, the
    Netherlands, Portugal, Belgium and
    the United States. Britain, the his-
    toric main market for port, ranks
    sixth these days.
    The worst nancial crisis in living
    memory has helped squash sales in
    those countries. For many con-
    sumers, port is a luxury they can do
    without. Added to that, lifestyle
    changes have to some degree made
    the high-calorie drink unfashionable
    as consumers watch their waistline.
    In the last century Symington
    Family Estates exported port to
    around 20 countries. Now, its selling
    in more than 80. The new destina-
    tions include cash-rich emerging
    markets where the producers are
    coaxing Brazilians, Russians,
    Chinese and Angolans to put port on
    their table.
    The signs are promising. Port wine
    sales to Brazil rose more than 31 per-
    cent in the rst half of this year, to
    (euro) 2.4 million, making it a Top
    10 importer. Its not enough to take
    up the slack, though.
    Producers are also pushing port in
    gimmicky new cocktails, such as
    white port with tonic water, a twist of
    lemon and ice, that might appeal to a
    younger crowd. Its a novelty the
    trades forebears might have found
    sacrilegious.
    Symington, though, says its an
    inevitable development. Porto has
    long banked on its prestige and aris-
    tocratic conventions, such as always
    passing the port to the left at formal
    dinner parties, but now it needs to shed
    its stuffy image, he says.
    We have to de-formalize port, said
    Symington.
    British exporters built up the local
    wine trade after Britain went to war
    with France in 1678, losing access to
    French wines. The story goes that the
    British added grape brandy to the
    Douro wine to prevent it spoiling at
    sea. That made it 20 percent proof
    almost twice as potent as table wine
    and especially sweet by halting fer-
    mentation while the wine is still fruity.
    Port has also drawn distinction from
    its upmarket price.
    The lower-grade ports, called ruby,
    tawny and late-bottled vintage, usual-
    ly carry a price tag of around (euro)
    10-25 ($14-$35).
    A vintage port, so called because
    it came from a grape harvest that was
    exceptionally good, carries a heftier
    charge. The vintage is the Rolls-Royce
    of port wines, and something like the
    Symingtons prize-winning 2007
    version costs around (euro) 100
    ($140). Port gets better with age, and
    its price climbs with the years. The
    legendary 1963 vintage the one
    served to President Obama comes
    in at around (euro) 300 ($415).
    Taylors Scion, from 1855, goes for
    around (euro) 2,500 ($3,475) a bot-
    tle.
    The Douro Valley is one of
    Europes smartest addresses for wine
    and one of the worlds oldest demar-
    cated wine regions, dating from a
    1756 law.
    Its steep slopes, slate terrain and
    sunny summers provide ideal condi-
    tions. Unique Portuguese grape vari-
    eties such as Touriga Nacional, Tinta
    Roriz, and Vinha Velha also set local
    wines apart.
    Port wine cherishes its past, looks for a future
    For many consumers, port is a luxury they can do without.Added to that, lifestyle changes have to some degree
    made the high-calorie drink unfashionable as consumers watch their waistline.

    Depp stumbled on the manuscript a quarter-
    century after.
    Depp and Thompson, who died of a self-
    inflicted gunshot wound in 2005, bonded
    instantly at that first meeting in 1994, when
    the actor was spending Christmas in Aspen,
    Colo., near the authors home. A fan of
    Thompsons since reading the gonzo journal-
    ists Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas in his
    late teens, Depp jumped at the chance when
    a mutual friend asked if he wanted to meet
    him.
    Depp was told to turn up at the tavern at
    midnight. Soon after, Thompson entered
    brandishing his cattle prod and Taser.
    People were hurling their bodies, leaping
    out of the way to try and save themselves
    from this maniac, Depp said in an interview.
    Then he made his way to me. The sparks
    had died down, he just walked right up to me
    and put his hand out and said, How do you
    do? My name is Hunter.
    Thompson and Depp quickly discovered
    they both were born in Kentucky and shared
    many literary heroes, among them Ernest
    Hemingway and Nathaniel West. Around
    2:30 that morning, they were at Thompsons
    house, where Depp admired a nickel-plated
    shotgun on the wall.
    Would you like to fire it? Depp recalled
    Thompson saying. I said, Yeah. Great,
    man. He says, All right, great. We must
    build bombs. So we built bombs in his sink
    out of propane tanks and nitroglycerin. Then
    we took them out back and he said, All
    right, you get first crack. So I leveled that
    12-gauge and I blew it up 80-foot fireball.
    I think that was my kind of rite of passage
    with Hunter. I think that was my test that I
    was OK.
    Depp went on to play Thompsons alter
    ego in the 1998 movie adaptation of Fear
    and Loathing. While preparing for that role,
    Depp spent time in the basement of
    Thompsons home, sorting through boxes of
    Fear and Loathing artifacts cherry
    stems and cocktail napkins and all these
    weird notations, and photographs of mon-
    keys. Who knew what was in there? Depp
    recalled.
    Then he opened another box and found a
    manuscript titled The Rum Diary in red
    letters. He figured Thompson had not looked
    at it since writing it decades earlier, the story
    based on the authors experiences as a young
    reporter in Puerto Rico.
    Sitting cross-legged on the floor, Depp and
    Thompson passed pages back and forth.
    Within about half an hour, Depp had per-
    suaded Thompson to publish the novel. In
    return, Thompson insisted they should do a
    film version.
    They developed the project together for
    years, and Depp became even more commit-
    ted to bringing the story to the screen after
    Thompson killed himself amid assorted mal-
    adies and declining health.
    Theres nothing more delightful than to
    see an actor play a role that he puts every-
    thing into, said Graham King, a producer on
    The Rum Diary.
    Im not saying he doesnt put everything
    into every movie, but this was different. This
    was something that was so close to his heart.
    It wasnt a gig. It wasnt a job for him.
    Johnny is Hunter in many ways. Hunter
    set out to do something that no one else had
    done before, and I feel like Johnny does that
    in many things, said co-star Amber Heard.
    Hes doing exactly what he wants to do, and
    I think its wonderful and important to fight
    to make projects that he feels have artistic
    integrity.
    A box-office risk early in his career for
    oddball films that rarely made money, Depp
    has been able to call his own shots in the
    years since he became a Hollywood bread-
    winner with hits such as the Pirates of the
    Caribbean movies and Charlie and the
    Chocolate Factory.
    Still, it was a challenge to find backers for
    The Rum Diary, which stars Depp as Paul
    Kemp, a Thompson alter ego in his formative
    years, arriving in San Juan as an aimless ten-
    derfoot who encounters corrupt developers
    despoiling an island paradise and discovers
    his purpose to take on the bastards
    wherever he finds them.
    Aaron Eckhart co-stars as a slimy public
    relations man whose girlfriend (Heard)
    becomes Kemps object of lust. The cast also
    includes Giovanni Ribisi, Richard Jenkins
    and Michael Rispoli.
    To write the screenplay and direct, Depp
    and Thompson enlisted Bruce Robinson
    (Withnail & I), a filmmaker who recog-
    nized himself and Thompson as kindred spir-
    its.
    We were writing in the same vernacular, a
    voice of comedic rage, Robinson said.
    What are you going to have, a hand grenade
    or a word? Hunter chose the word.
    Though Thompson was gone, Depp made
    him a spectral producer from beyond, insist-
    ing there be a chair with Thompsons name
    on the set, beside it an ashtray, a packet of
    Dunhill cigarettes, a bottle of Chivas Regal
    and a highball glass.
    Each morning, Depp and Robinson would
    pour a drink for Thompson.
    Everybody was there for Johnny, and
    Johnny was there for the love of the man,
    Eckhart said. That was palpable on the set,
    between Hunters chair and their sacrament
    to him each day.
    If Thompson were around to review his
    performance, Depp figures he would come
    up with some unbelievably witty, clever
    remark that would just sort of chop me off at
    the ankles. ... And then seconds later, he
    would have praised it, I believe.
    When I called him for Fear and
    Loathing, I was scared that was the end of
    our friendship, because I had played him, I
    think, pretty close to the bone, Depp said. I
    told him early on, If I do this right, you
    might hate me forever. He said, Well its a
    chance youve got to take, isnt it? So I did
    it, but after Fear and Loathing, I called him
    and I said, All right, you saw it? Do you hate
    me?
    And I think by me saying, Do you hate
    me? he knew I was in pain. He couldnt
    stand the idea of (messing) with me, and he
    said, No, no, man. It was like an eerie trum-
    pet call over a lost battlefield. I mean, that
    just came out of his mouth on the telephone.
    ... It doesnt get better.

    RUM
    and Loathing in Las Vegas) has been trying
    to adapt The Rum Diary to the screen.
    The Rum Diary which is dedicated to
    Thompson, who died in 2005 is essentially
    a portrait of the Duke as a young journalist.
    The stand-in for Thompson, the young novel-
    ist-reporter Paul Kemp (Depp), is trying to
    nd his way and his writing voice: Its the
    birth of Gonzo.
    Criminally exaggerated resume in hand,
    Kemp has gone to Puerto Rico to try his hand
    as a reporter. He lands a job at the San Juan
    Star, whose editor-in-chief, Lotterman (the
    excellent Richard Jenkins), is at his wits end
    running a failing, diminishing daily. As he
    interviews a hung-over Kemp, he quizzes him
    on what kind of drinker he is, to which Kemp
    deadpans that hes at the upper-end of
    social.
    Kemp is befriended by staff photographer
    Sala (Michael Rispoli, in a deservedly big part
    for him), a burly, genial newsman who is nev-
    ertheless not once seen with a camera in hand.
    Kemp moves into Salas dilapidated dump of
    an apartment, which he shares with crime
    reporter Moberg (Giovanni Ribisi), a horse-
    voiced, over-drugged oddity who listens to
    Hitler broadcasts and sets some kind of record
    for caustic reporter-editor relations.
    Kemp catches the attention of American
    businessman Sanderson (Aaron Eckhart), a
    smooth manipulator who is trying to push
    through an enormous development of a near-
    by, pristine island thats pushing locals out in
    favor of American investors. Sanderson
    recruits Kemp to spin the development favor-
    ably in the Star.
    This picture of American corruption of
    Puerto Rico is one of the more compelling
    aspects of The Rum Diary. A combative
    atmosphere between poor locals and rich
    Americans hangs in the air, as do the Navy
    bombing tests on Vieques. Depp is again in
    the Caribbean among pirates.
    Sandersons slick, wealthy appeal is tempt-
    ing to Kemp, who isnt nding the constrict-
    ing Star to be an especially noble pursuit,
    either. Even more alluring is Sandersons
    beautiful ancie Chenault, played by Amber
    Heard. Kemp immediately falls for her (Oh
    God, why did she have to happen? he mutters
    after meeting her) and its no wonder: Heard
    is a stunning presence.
    This builds slowly for Kemp into a moral
    crisis and, nally, an artistic tipping-point. I
    dont know how to write like me, he says, but
    by the end of the film, its clear that
    Kemp/Thompson has found his legs. The
    guiding principle is a furious distrust of
    authority (we glimpse him cursing Nixon),
    and a key ingredient is hallucinogens (we also
    get an early encounter with LSD).
    You might expect a tribute such as this to be
    sycophantic, but director Bruce Robinson
    (famous for the brilliant cult lm Withnail &
    I) keeps a realistic tone. Robinson, who also
    wrote the screenplay adaptation, doesnt pres-
    ent the cartoonish Thompson weve come to
    expect. Its a refreshing, grounded view of the
    writer.
    Depp, at this point, would seem to not be
    aging. This more low-key performance as a
    Thompson alter-ego feels truer than the manic
    derangement of Fear and Loathing, but the
    role is also lacking yearning and real energy.
    Thompson went on to nd his voice, but
    The Rum Diary, entertaining and well-
    intended, comes just shy of discovering its
    own.
    The Rum Diary, a FilmDistrict release, is
    rated R for language, brief drug use and sexu-
    ality. Running time: 120 minutes. Two and a
    half stars out of four.

    The beauty of Halloween treats is
    that you dont have to worry about
    making them pretty.
    In fact, the uglier they are, the
    better. And that was our inspiration
    for this baked treat. We wanted a
    bar that was appropriately loaded
    with sugar (it is the high holiday of
    sweets, after all) and looked as
    though somebody had dragged it
    through a swamp.
    And so we came up with bog
    bars, which start as a basic blondie-
    like bar studded with dried cherries.
    Then we smear melted chocolate
    over the top and start dumping deli-
    cious things all over them. The
    gummy worms and pretzels are a
    particularly nice touch, resembling
    the snakes and twigs one surely
    encounters during midnight swamp
    strolls.
    BOG BARS
    Start to nish: 40 minutes (10
    minutes active)
    Servings: 16
    2 cups dried cherries
    1/2 cup apple or orange juice
    3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted
    butter
    2 1/4 cups packed brown sugar
    3 eggs
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    2 1/4 cups all-purpose our
    1 1/2 teaspoons salt
    16 chocolate sandwich cookies,
    broken into large pieces, divided
    12 ounces milk chocolate bits
    2 honey graham crackers, broken
    1/2 cup mini marshmallows
    1/2 cup pretzel sticks (broken)
    Handful gummie worms or bugs
    2 green fruit roll-ups, torn into
    pieces
    Heat the oven to 350 F. Coat a 9-
    by-13-inch pan with cooking spray.
    In a microwave-safe dish, com-
    bine the cherries and juice.
    Microwave on high until bubbling,
    about 1 minute. Set aside to cool.
    In the bowl of an electric mixer,
    cream together the butter and brown
    sugar until uffy. Add the eggs, one
    at a time, scraping the bowl
    between additions. Stir in the vanil-
    la. Add the our and salt and mix
    just until combined. Drain the
    reserved cherries, then add them
    and half of the broken chocolate
    cookies.
    Spoon the mixture into the pre-
    pared pan and bake for 25 to 30
    minutes, or until golden and set.
    While the bars are still hot, sprin-
    kle the milk chocolate bits over the
    surface. Allow to melt. Use the back
    of a spoon to spread the melted
    chocolate to cover the surface.
    Sprinkle with the broken graham
    crackers, marshmallows, pretzels,
    gummie worms, the remaining
    chocolate cookies and the pieces of
    fruit roll-ups. Allow to cool.

    We generally discourage cooking
    with open wounds. Then again,
    Halloween is the one time of year
    nobody seems to mind a little blood
    on their food.
    So to get you in the mood for
    gore, we created these grossly deli-
    cious blood drop cookies. They are
    quick, easy and perfectly disturbing.
    BLOOD DROP COOKIES
    Start to nish: 2 1/2 hours (20
    minutes active)
    Makes 3 dozen cookies
    12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate
    bits
    1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
    2/3 cup packed brown sugar
    2/3 cup granulated sugar
    4 eggs
    1/2 teaspoon baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1 1/2 cups all-purpose our
    1/2 cup seedless raspberry jam
    In a medium saucepan over low
    heat, melt the chocolate bits and
    butter, stirring constantly. Set aside.
    In a large bowl, whisk together
    the brown sugar, granulated sugar
    and eggs. Add the melted chocolate
    and butter, then stir until smooth.
    Stir in the baking powder, salt and
    flour until completely smooth.
    Refrigerate until completely chilled,
    about 2 hours.
    Heat the oven to 350 F. Line 2
    baking sheets with parchment paper.
    Scoop the dough by the table-
    spoonful out onto the prepared bak-
    ing sheets leaving 2 inches between
    the cookies for spreading. Gently
    press each ball of dough with the
    palm of your hand to slightly atten
    until about 1/2 inch thick.
    Using your thumb or the handle of
    a wooden spoon, create a dimple in
    the center of each cookie. Add a tea-
    spoon of raspberry jam to the dim-
    ple of each cookie. Bake for 12 to 15
    minutes. Cool for 5 minutes on the
    pan, then transfer to a rack to cool
    completely.
    Dont mind the blood!

    people, she said.
    Munks and his jail planning team must
    now decide if it is worthwhile to still apply,
    in hopes the county will be next in line if
    one of the counties awarded funds drops
    out. Munks said he has been in touch with
    state legislators, the CDC and the state
    sheriffs association for insight but has yet
    to make the decision.
    The state funds were never guaranteed
    and their absence should not derail plans
    for a $165 million, 576-bed jail, Munks
    said.
    We always said anything would help
    lower costs but the approval of the jail was
    not linked to the funds, he said.
    The Board of Supervisors, short of
    Supervisor Dave Pine, voted to direct
    Munks to move forward with a hybrid
    plan. The jail is yet to be designed but is
    tentatively described as three oors topped
    by 40 feet of unnished space for future
    use as needed. Munks estimates it opening
    in 2014-2015.
    The jail is ballparked to cost between
    $145 million and $165 million to build fol-
    lowed by roughly $40 million in annual
    operating costs. Full state funding would
    shave up to 60 percent of the debt service.
    Initially, only those counties receiving a
    state invitation could le a full application
    but the state opened the process up to both
    categories shortly before the Oct. 21 letter
    of intent deadline.
    Heading into the process, county of-
    cials shared Munks optimism in large part
    because there was a plan and land in place.
    The county purchased parcels on
    Chemical Way in Redwood City for $17
    million specically to build a jail.
    We really thought we were so well
    poised, said Lt. Deborah Bazan of the jail
    planning team.
    Now that the county was declined, at
    least one supervisor thinks applying any-
    way could be foolish to spend the time and
    possibly money when it isnt a front-run-
    ner.
    Its like applying to college. If Im told
    Im not getting into Stanford, I can still
    apply. But it doesnt mean Im getting it,
    Pine said.
    Board Vice President Adrienne Tissier, a
    vocal proponent of a new jail, also thinks
    the county should only apply if it has the
    chance to receive $50 million to $100 mil-
    lion.
    Right now the jail planners have a lot of
    work they need to be doing ... to design
    and get the site ready, If the likelihood is
    slim to none, Im not necessary sure its
    worth the effort, she said.
    Although Pine did not join the board in
    supporting the approved jail and always
    voiced skepticism on receiving construc-
    tion funds, he didnt relish the states deci-
    sion.
    My views on building a jail of this
    scope are clear. But its still unfortunate we
    dont have the money. Id much rather we
    have it and as we move forward in long-
    term planning we just have to remember
    we will now have a $40 million a year
    obligation, Pine said.
    Pine pencils the nancial burden out to
    $10.2 million in debt annually over a 30-
    year span plus additional operating costs.
    If the county does apply, the deadline is
    Jan. 11.
    Regardless of cost, there is little debate
    the county needs a new jail to ease over-
    crowding. The Maguire Correctional
    Facility is rated for 688 inmates but often
    averages more than 1,000 while the
    womens facility usually surpasses its 84-
    bed rating. Inmates are double and triple
    bunked in rooms once meant for rehabili-
    tation and programming, cutting services
    and education ofcials say are key to
    reducing recidivism.
    During several study sessions to deter-
    mine the size of a new facility, Pine and
    members of the public questioned whether
    more effort should be placed in prevention
    rather than increased bed size.
    Now that the plan is approved, Tissier
    said the lack of state funding doesnt
    change her mind this is the route to take
    although she cautioned the county must be
    prudent and responsive to the economy. In
    the future, too, she said the county will
    also have a better hand on how it is affect-
    ed by the state realignment which keeps
    more inmates local.
    McMillan thinks the state offered jail
    funds to help its own plans for realignment
    and said the county should have received
    money because it is providing the desired
    outcomes of reducing incarceration.
    This rewards bad behavior. Counties
    who dont build facilities and automatical-
    ly send inmates to the state get the money
    while we dont. Once again, no good deed
    goes unpunished, she said.
    San Mateo County previously turned
    down up to $100 million in state funding
    because it came with too many strings, like
    a mandatory re-entry facility for state
    inmates. The state since amended the
    requirements, leading to the recent appli-
    cation process.

    he said.
    This is Kikuchis rst trip to the United
    States. The girls spent three weeks at a
    college studying English before heading
    to the San Mateo school. Before heading
    home, they will do a three-day home stay
    with Aragon High School students, said
    Imase.
    In Japan, Im really quiet, Kikuchi
    said. I dont interact as much.
    She made an effort to change that while
    here to build her English skills. As a
    result, Kikuchi is adding to her vocabu-
    lary, enjoying new albeit not always
    American food like tacos and pizza, and
    learning about Halloween. Earlier in the
    day, the students carved pumpkins togeth-
    er which decorated the schools front
    steps.
    For the San Mateo students, it is a win-
    dow into another culture. Its also an
    introduction to the students with whom
    they will stay when the annual trip is
    restarted in the spring.
    Vixie has enjoyed the ability to practice
    Japanese and is now extra excited about
    the coming trip a chance, she said, to
    do some community service in a town
    thats still rebuilding.
    Thirteen-year-old Jordana Cahen
    agreed, and added that learning about the
    earthquake, tsunami and life after from
    those who lived through it was also inter-
    esting.
    Odyssey students and staff alike noted
    how their guests often described the two
    environmental efforts as separate since
    some people were not affected by both.
    Cahen shared the story of one student
    who waited three hours in the snow for
    food. Vixie recalled students telling tales
    of giving up their food for young children
    or their elders. It took about a month for
    school to resume in Japan and the rebuild-
    ing is still ongoing.
    While both Cahen and Vixie comment-
    ed on the humble nature of the visiting
    students and how much theyve learned
    about the culture, they also were intrigued
    by the language barrier.
    Cahen said it really hit home while in
    science class this week. Odyssey students
    were learning about DNA and needed to
    explain the assignment to their visiting
    friends. Although the vocabulary wasnt
    always there, students have been able to
    work together to understand each other.

    tomers and tarnish the companys reputa-
    tion, he said.
    Attorney Jeffrey Melching, on behalf
    of the city, argued the city has until Jan.
    31 to make a decision, which is a dead-
    line that will be met regardless of the
    moratorium, which ends Jan. 16. He
    added the moratorium does not prohibit
    the city and ExteNet from continuing to
    work on the application. It simply bars
    the City Council from making a ruling,
    he said.
    Julian Quattlebaum, one of two attor-
    neys representing ExteNet, argued the
    Jan. 31 deadline was at the very latest
    and the law requires an early action if
    possible, which he thought possible in
    this case.
    Miram further questioned Melching
    noting the merits of harm to ExteNet
    were strong. He also noted the proposed
    devices didnt appear to cause much
    harm to the city.
    Melching disagreed saying the City
    Council has the right to put a moratorium
    in place when there is an effort to protect
    the publics safety, health and welfare,
    which it did in this case.
    Jystad, on the other hand, said the
    moratorium was put in place due to polit-
    ical pressure from residents.
    Burlingame also claims ExteNet failed
    to provide complete and accurate
    descriptions of the work and meaningful
    responses to residents concerns, a point
    from Melchings written response that he
    went over orally Thursday.
    ExteNets applications were submitted
    in September 2010, according to the law-
    suit. State and federal laws do limit a
    citys ability to deny telecommunication
    applications. Such installations are put in
    the public right-of-way rather than pri-
    vate land. Visual impacts are a valid rea-
    son for denying a cell tower application
    or requiring its modication, but the
    Federal Telecommunications Act of 1996
    does not allow perceived health risks as a
    basis because electromagnetic radiation
    is scientically unproven. Federal regu-
    lations also outline the process, which
    should take about 90 days.
    Melching argued the 90 days assumes
    no environmental review, which was
    required in this case and includes
    approval from the California Public
    Utilities Commission. The City Council
    has 180 days from that date, he said,
    questioning why ExteNet waited so long
    to apply to the CPUC.
    Jystad countered that the company
    waited to apply until the city had given
    preliminary approval for the locations
    and started the public noticing process.
    Miram is expected to rule on the
    injunction next week.

    COURT
    When property is auctioned, the pro-
    ceeds pay off the mortgage and debt with
    any remaining money going to the home-
    owner. Squelching competitive bids limits
    how much money is available for both.
    The men used the U.S. mail and Federal
    Express to send the Trustees Deeds Upon
    Sale and other title documents to others in
    the conspiracy, leading to the mail fraud
    charges.
    For their roles, the investors face up to a
    decade in federal prison for violating the
    antitrust law known as the Sherman Act
    and up to 30 years for conspiring to com-
    mit mail fraud, the DOJ announced yes-
    terday.
    The collusion taking place at these
    auctions allowed the conspirators to line
    their pockets with funds that otherwise
    would have gone to lenders and, at times,
    nancially distressed homeowners, said
    Sharis Pozen, acting assistant attorney
    general in charge of the DOJs antitrust
    division, in announcing the pleas.
    The antitrust division has an ongoing
    investigation into bid rigging and fraud at
    public real estate foreclosure auctions in
    the Bay Area. To date, 18 people have
    pleaded guilty.
    Also pleading yesterday alongside the
    local defendants were Gary Anderson of
    Saratoga, Patrick Campion of San
    Francisco, Keith Goodman of San
    Francisco and Craig Lipton of San
    Francisco.

    Friday, Oct. 28, 2011
    ScOrPiO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- It might be one of those
    times when the ideas of your mate or partner could
    be substantially better than yours. Listen attentively
    and be prepared to choose their plans over your own.
    SaGittariUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- The arrange-
    ment of your schedule will determine the degree of
    productivity you achieve. Spending too much time on
    innocuous pursuits will accomplish very little.
    caPricOrN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- For the sake of
    your own peace of mind, dont take yourself or what
    youre trying to accomplish too seriously. Once you
    get uptight, very little will come easily.
    aQUariUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- The one thing that
    could thwart your capability to accomplish your aims
    is the misuse of your imagination. Instead of antici-
    pating defeat or confict, focus on victory.
    PiScES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Listen to a friend who
    has been trying to tell you something that you dont want
    to hear. What she or he has to say can be very valuable,
    and exactly what you need to achieve your goal.
    ariES (March 21-April 19) -- A fnancial arrangement
    that worked out quite well for an associate might not
    do so well for you. Use your own judgment in this
    matter, and do what is best for your interests.
    taUrUS (April 20-May 20) -- If a misunderstanding
    arises between you and an easygoing friend, chances
    are it is you who has stepped over the line. Even if
    you think youre in the right, dont be too proud to
    make amends.
    GEMiNi (May 21-June 20) -- Dont be demanding in
    order to get someone to be supportive of your cause
    -- instead show cooperation with this persons needs.
    If you give a little frst, youll get a lot back later.
    caNcEr (June 21-July 22) -- Dont be hesitant
    to ask advice regarding something that has you
    stymied. However, it might be smart to go to a friend
    instead of a family member if its a personal issue.
    LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Clinging to a negative
    attitude might be your biggest liability. Keep telling
    yourself over and over that you can be successful,
    and you will.
    VirGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Youre known for being
    quite adroit at handling most anything that comes
    your way, with one exception. Upon occasion you
    can get quite careless in handling your funds. Be
    especially careful today.
    LiBra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Its time to stop licking
    your wounds concerning a situation that you recently
    handled poorly. Instead, steer your mind toward
    thinking about ways to do better next time.
