A poll conducted by Godbe
Research shows Belmont residents
strongly support Crystal Springs
Uplands Schools desire to build a
middle school in the hills on Davis
Drive but some council members
have already indicated the poll will
have little affect on their votes.
The poll was conducted on behalf
of CSUS from Sept. 4 to Sept. 8 in
telephone interviews with 401
Belmont residents, said Bryan
Godbe, president of the San Mateo-
based research company. Belmont
has about 12,000 likely voters, he
said.
The 17-minute interviews were
meant to gauge voter support of the
project, Godbe told the Daily
Journal.
It was conducted in two parts, one
gauging uninformed support and
the other gauging informed sup-
port after residents were given more
details on the project, Godbe said.
Before they were given more
details on the project, Belmont resi-
dents gave 53.6 percent support for
the project with 20.4 percent oppos-
ing it, according to the poll.
After being asked a series of
questions or given more details on
the project such as annual $250,000
payments to the city, support for the
project climbed to 62.4 percent sup-
port, Godbe told the Daily Journal.
The opposition number climbed
too, however, to 25.5 percent in the
informed poll. That is due to many
undecideds changing their minds

San Mateo County can pursue its
legal claims against Lehman
Brothers officers, directors and
auditor, a district court judge ruled
this week in an opinion that reinvig-
orates the battle to recoup some of
the $155 million lost when the Wall
Street rm went bankrupt.
The ruling by U.S. District Court
Judge Lewis Kaplan allows the
county, six other public entities and
an insurance company to go forward
with a core set of claims against for-
mer executives including former
CEO Richard Fuld and auditor Ernst
and Young LLP for securities viola-
tions and accounting fraud. The
court order also leaves Fuld facing
allegations he fraudulently trans-
ferred his $14 million Florida home
to his wife for $100 in 2008.
The suits claim Lehman execu-
tives knowingly misled investors
leading up to its bankruptcy and
used accounting gimmicks to keep
entities from selling before the
entire rm collapsed in September

The Redwood City Planning
Commission last night cited poten-
tial trafc increases to the neighbor-
hood as reason to approve 16 gas
station pumps at Costco on
Middlefield road rather than the
expansion to 20 requested by the
company.
The Planning Commission voted
6-1 in favor of amending the compa-
nys use permit but only after hours
of haggling over whether the exist-
ing trafc and potential for more
was reason to either deny or amend
the expansion request.
Commissioner Randy Tabing dis-
sented.
As part of the approval, the com-
mission also asked Costco to revise
its internal trafc plan and further
look at potential impacts.
Costco had asked to expand its
fueling area from 12 to 20 pumps on
Redwood City less than pumped

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. An
aggressive President Barack Obama
accused challenger Mitt Romney of
peddling a sketchy deal to x the
U.S. economy and playing politics
with the deadly terrorist attack in
Libya in a Tuesday night debate
crackling with energy and emotion
just three weeks before the election.
Romney pushed back hard, saying
the middle class has been crushed
over the last four years under
Obamas leadership and that 23 mil-
lion Americans are still struggling to
nd work. He contended the death
of the U.S. ambassador to Libya
was part of an unraveling of the
administrations foreign policy.
The president was feistier from
the outset than he had been in their
initial encounter two weeks ago,
when he turned in a listless per-
formance that sent shudders through
his supporters and helped fuel a rise
by Romney in opinion polls nation-
ally and in some battleground states.
When Romney said Tuesday night
that he had a ve-point plan to cre-
ate 12 million jobs, Obama said,
Gov. Romney says hes got a ve-
point plan. Gov. Romney doesnt
have a ve-point plan. He has a one-
point plan. And that plan is to make
sure that folks at the top play by a
different set of rules.
Obama and Romney disagreed,
forcefully and repeatedly about
taxes, the bailout of the auto indus-
try, measures to reduce the decit,
energy, pay equity for women and
health care as well as foreign policy
across 90 minutes of a town-hall
style debate.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A 30-year-old woman whose drunken
highway crash into two vehicles left a family
of three severely injured was sentenced to a
year in jail yesterday followed by five years
probation.
Monique Manuela Perez also received a
five-year prison term but it was suspended as
long as she successfully completes the other
portions of the sentence and probationary
period.
In January, Perez pleaded no contest to
felony drunk driving causing injury and
inflicting great bodily injury on multiple vic-
tims in return of up to five
years prison. Perez had
been free from custody on
a $100,000 bail bond but
was taken into custody
after yesterdays sentenc-
ing hearing.
The California
Highway Patrol arrested
Perez Oct. 3, 2010 after
responding to the multi-
car collision on Highway 101 near State
Route 92. Perez reportedly drove wildly
northbound, striking one car before speeding
away at 85 to 90 mph. Authorities say she
swerved in and out of traffic lanes before
crashing into a second car carrying a mother,
father and their 18-year-old son. That car
rolled twice and slid across the highway,
leaving the mother with a spinal fracture,
crushed right hand and other breaks to her
face, degloving of the fathers forearm and
the son with a head injury.
The victims in the first car suffered lower
back pain.
Drivers in other vehicles pulled over to aid
at the scene and pulled Perez from her car at
which time she passed out.
Her blood alcohol level was later reported
at .24 and .25.

BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE
The wreckage of an Arizona-bound airplane
that disappeared after taking off from the Half
Moon Bay Airport on Monday was found on a
coastal bluff west of the airport Tuesday after-
noon, a sheriff spokeswoman said.
The single-engine Aeropro CZ A240
appears to have crashed near Seal Cove short-
ly after departing for Marana, Ariz., at 5:50
a.m. Monday, San Mateo County sheriffs
spokeswoman Rebecca Rosenblatt said.
The pilot was killed in the crash, and the
San Mateo County coroners office was
responding to the scene, Federal Aviation
Administration spokesman Ian Gregor said.
The wreckage was found by search-and-
rescue crews just after noon, and investiga-
tors from the FAA and the National
Transportation Safety Board are heading to
the crash site, Rosenblatt said.
The pilot, who has not been identied, was
reported missing by his wife on Monday
evening after he failed to land on schedule in
Arizona, FAA spokesman Ian Gregor said.
No passengers were believed to have been
on board the plane.
The search effort was led by the U.S. Coast
Guard and aided by the Civil Air Patrol and
the San Mateo County Sheriffs Ofce.

A federal appeals court decision striking
down restrictions on the distribution of Yellow
Pages in Seattle has imperiled San Franciscos
own phonebook ban.
The Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals
ruled Monday that Seattles 2010 law violated
the First Amendment. The law created a reg-
istry paid for by fees levied on publishers of
the directories that allowed residents to opt
out of receiving phone directories. The publish-
ers were additionally required to advertise the
availability of the opt-out registry on the direc-
tories front covers.
Seattle estimated unwanted phonebooks gen-
erated 1,300 tons of waste a year that cost tax-
payers nearly $200,000 to dispose.
San Franciscos law is more restrictive, mak-
ing it even less likely to stand up in court. It
prohibits the distribution of Yellow Pages to
anyone who does not specically opt in.
Supervisor David Chiu, who authored the
law said that the appeals court misread the First
Amendment and protected giant corporate
polluters.
He said he will evaluate potential changes to
San Franciscos law, but intends to continue
pushing to cut down on phonebook waste.
In the Seattle case, a district court had upheld
the law, saying the directories represented com-
mercial speech and were therefore not entitled
to the full protection of the First Amendment.
But the appeals court disagreed, siding with
Yellow Page companies.
Although portions of the directories are
obviously commercial in nature, the books con-
tain more than that, and we conclude that the
directories are entitled to the full protection of
the First Amendment, Judge Richard Clifton,
one of three judges on the Ninth Circuit panel,
wrote in his opinion.
San Franciscos ordinance passed in 2011
created a three-year pilot program for the
ban.

Smaller iPad expected
at Oct. 23 Apple event
By Peter Svensson
NEW YORK Apple Inc. has sent out invites for an event
next Tuesday, where its expected to announce the release of a
smaller iPad.
The invite, sent to reporters Tuesday, doesnt hint at what
will be revealed, beyond saying that Weve got a little more
to show you. The event will be held in San Jose, Calif.
Media and analysts have said for months that Apple has an
iPad mini in the works. The tablet is thought to be about half
the size of the regular iPad and to start at $249 or $299. The
regular iPad starts at $499 for the most recent models.
Court hears arguments
in state clean fuels case
By Jason Dearen
SAN FRANCISCO In a case seeking to stop Californias
rst-in-the-nation mandate requiring fuel producers to reduce
greenhouse gas emissions, federal justices on Tuesday focused
their questions on whether the law discriminates against out-of-
state businesses. A three-justice panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit
Court of Appeals heard oral arguments about the constitutionali-
ty of Californias Low Carbon Fuel Standard, a piece of the
states landmark global warming law, AB 32.
The California Air Resources Board, the agency in charge of
implementing the law, said the standard will cut Californias
dependence on petroleum by 20 percent, and will account for one-
tenth of the states goal to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 2020.
The justices focused on the laws reliance on a carbon intensi-
ty score, which measures pollution from a fuels entire life cycle
such as the type of electricity used to produce it or the fuel used
to transport it to California not just when it is burned in a vehi-
cle.

35 percent; exported scrap metal 17 per-
cent; imported bauxite 8 percent; and the
remaining 3 percent consisted of domestic
sand. Due to the recent low production
from local quarries, imported sand and
aggregates continue to be at a high
demand for the local ready-mix concrete
suppliers, Snaman said.
During the last scal year, nearly
850,000 metric tons of sand and aggre-
gates were imported. At the current rate,
imports of sand and aggregates may come
close to a million metric tons during this
year.
Twenty-one vessels (12 ships, 9 barges)
made calls during this years rst quarter
compared to 15 vessels (12 ships, three
barges) during last year.
Alleged residential
burglar identified
A Menlo Park man was arrested Oct. 11
after a citizen helped identify him from a
surveillance video released by police.
The man, Ludwig Garcia-Amaya, 22,
was arrested on a parole warrant and
police are seeking to charge him for resi-
dential burglary for the crime at about 2
p.m. Aug. 30 on the 1100 block of Lyons
Street, according to police.
The video showed the man knocking on
the front door prior to entering the resi-
dence through a back door, according to
police.
In the past 10 days, Redwood City
police have arrested six suspects for resi-
dential burglaries, according to police.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The fate of Petes Harbor, the iconic
marina proposed for development into
waterfront residences, remains unknown
after the Redwood City Planning
Commission yesterday tabled a discussion
on whether to grant the required permits
and parking exception.
The commission didnt begin its public
hearing on the planned development per-
mit until nearly 10:30 p.m. last night and
while the chambers was still lled with
rows of people some with signs
demanding Keep Petes Harbor beauti-
ful several had already left or were
checking watches.
The commission began hearing a staff
report on the developers application and
from land owner Paula Uccelli but just shy
of 11 p.m. agreed to continue the item
until the Oct. 30 hearing. The Planning
Commission will hear from the public
before discussing and voting on the mat-
ter.
Before putting the hearing on hold, the
commission heard from Uccelli that the
marina has been up for sale for the last 12
years and despite their worry no tenants so
far have received eviction notices. So far,
52 live-aboard tenants, or 41 percent, have
vacated voluntarily, said Uccelli attorney
Ted Hannig.
Uccelli said her deceased husband and
the marinas namesake, Pete, handpicked
developer Paul Powers to create a water-
front experience and seven years ago
never thought she would be managing the
marina herself.
Change is hard, she said. But new
beginnings are very, very exciting.
The project, to be located on the north
side of Highway 101 between Bair Island
Road and Redwood Creek, calls for 411
multi-family housing units in buildings
between three and ve stories, 805 park-
ing spaces, a community pool and approx-
imately 263 slips in a private marina. All
existing commercial operations at the
marina will cease and any future boat
mooring limited to apartment tenants.
The proposed plan doesnt require zon-
ing changes and therefore no special
approvals by the city because it does not
propose high-rise buildings or the lling
in of the Bay. However, members of the
Save Petes Harbor group and the others
said prior to the meeting they will ask the
City Council to reverse the Planning
Commissions approval.
The residents are expected to ask city
ofcials to slow, if not outright deny, the
plan in part because it includes no afford-
able housing. Hannig said there are a
number of reasons not to delay, in no
small part the millions of dollars in fees
and construction jobs the project would
bring.
The developer is also building One
Marina, a 231-unit community formerly
known as Peninsula Park. Both it and
Petes Harbor were part of the 2004
Marina Shores Village project approve by
the city but overturned through a voter ref-
erendum. Although the vote reverted both
parcels back to previous zoning designa-
tions it did not affect the early certication
of the environmental impact report.

Vote delayed over future of Petes Harbor
LOCAL/STATE 7
Our loving Father and Grandfather, Joseph Siemont, passed into
eternal rest on October 10, 2012. He was surrounded by family at
his bedside after a lengthy illness. Joe passedat home, surrounded
by the people and things he loved, knowing he was cared for by
his children, for whom he had loved and cared for all his life. His
passage was peaceful, as were his nal days. Father Strunk of
St. Gregorys Parish provided the Anointing of the Sick the day
before. Joseph Siemont was born January 30, 1931 to Stanislava
(Stella) Jasinski Siemiontkoski and Jan (John) Siemiontskoski in
Schenectady, New York. He is preceeded in death by a brother,
Adam Siemont who passed in 1981, his father who passed in
1952 and his mothers passage into eternal rest in 1988. Another
brother, John (Jan) had passed before the age of three due to
childhood inuenza. It is a testament to Joes character that years
later, he bought a headstone for this little angel as the family
could not afford one at the time of the childs death. Joe was the
person who never forgot about the little children, the importance
of the family unit and was always concerned about others feelings
within those relationships.
During his childhood, he worked ona fruit and vegetable delivery
truck, riding up and down the streets of Schenectady, New York,
earning a dollar a week. After several months, he saved up enough
money to buy a bicycle which he used and kept for many years.
One afternoon, well after he was in college, he looked out the
kitchen window and saw a younger neighborhood kid taking his
old hard-earned bicycle. Rather than chasing after the thief, he
watched the kid take the bicycle, telling us later, He must have
neededit more thanI did. That was the essence of his personality.
He always thought the best of people, and his personality was one
of forgiveness, patience and understanding.
Joe graduated from St. Adalberts Roman Catholic grammar
school, wherehewas alsoservedas analtar boy. Hegraduatedwith
high honors from Mont Pleasant High School, even completing
college preparatory Technical Mechanical courses.
Starting at age 18, Joe Siemont worked at the General Electric
plant in Schenectady, New York, starting as an apprentice, and
becoming a machinist in four short years. As did many of his
colleagues in the greatest generation, he enlisted in the Army,
where he workedwiththe Army Core of Engineers. He servedfrom
1955 to 1956 on active duty, remaining in the Army reserves until
1963, when he received an honorable discharge. He traveled to
France, England, Germany andIcelandduring his military service.
After leaving the military, he then earned a teaching credential at
New Yorks private Union College. He taught high school briey,
but was always fascinated by science and new developments. He
attendedAlbany StateTeachers College(nowStateUniversity of New
York), earning a Bachelor of Science in1961.
At one fateful meeting in an elevator in the General Electric
Plant, Joe asked a young lady for a light for his cigarette. The
raven-haired girl, with deep dimples in her smile, was June B.
Garrick. She handed him the pack of matches she just pulled out
of her brassiere. The moment he met her, that was it for him, She
was the prettiest girl I have ever seen, He always said of his wife,
June. For her, Joe was her knight in shining armor. They married
in 1961 after both relocated to California, initially living in
Burlingame, thenresiding inSanMateo Village area for fty years.
Joe and June were inseparable. They were married over forty-
seven years and enjoyed raising their four children. They worked
hard every day, and instilled the hard work ethic they learned
from the Depression in each of their four children, Gary, Sharon,
Stasia, and Kathleen. Joe worked many years as a contracts and
purchasing manager at Randtron Systems in Menlo Park, Ca.,
later purchased by Raytheon and nally purchased by Loral/L3
communications. His specialty was sourcing and designing the
specications for military satellite systems. He ran for the College of
San Mateo School Board in 1969 with the motto No axe to grind.
He valued education highly, and stressed always the importance of
educationinorder for any personto maintaintheir freedom.
While working at Randtron, he often needed engineers,
machinists, and welders, and he sought applicants through the
American Veterans associations in San Mateo County in order to
ll these positions. He felt it was his duty to nd a place for those
who had served their country, if he could. Every Valentines day, he
brought cupcakes home for his daughters and owers for his wife.
Joe served on the search party in the mid 1980s for Tonya Zack,
a young daughter of a co-worker at Randtron who had been
killed by a vagrant with mental illness when her car broke down
on Highway 17. From this tragedy, he taught his daughters self-
reliance and made sure they knewhowto take care of themselves
and had the means to do so.
Another incident demonstrating Joes character was when
he was called into a meeting with a number of higher-ups at
Randtron. He was the supervisor of one of the machinists, and
the vice president was upset that the tooled machinery had
droplets of paint on them. After letting the executives rant and
rave about how they were going to re the sloppy machinist, Joe
calmly agreed that the piece in question did have paint on it, and
that was unacceptable. This particular paint, he added, was not
allowed in the machine shop, as it was not temperature hardened,
but instead it was standard interior paint. Almost exactly
matches the paint in your ofce, doesnt it? Joe added quietly.
(The vice-presidents ofce had been recently redecorated.) He
took the machined piece and cleaned it off easily. Joe understood
\that the machined model had been clean when delivered to the
vice-presidents ofce, and had gotten paint on it from during the
redecorating. In his understated way, he saved the machinist from
blame, and allowed the executives to save face.
Joe often worked late, and he made the effort to know the
janitorial staff by name. He had the rare gift of remembering
the often-overlooked people. Once, he was leaving work late on
a Friday when a branch supervisor appeared in the parking lot,
desperate to get into the building because he had forgotten his
wallet. Joe knew the janitor, and because they were friends, the
janitor opened the building for Joe to allow the other supervisor
to retrieve his wallet.
Joe Siemont always made the effort to smile, be polite, and joke
withothers to make themfeel comfortable. He wouldjoke withthe
oncology nurses, evenas he was undergoing painful chemotherapy
treatment in the last six months of his life. He never complained.
It was important to him to make people feel comfortable and
welcome, and always complimented the hard work of those
around him to make them feel appreciated, especially those
who were often overlooked. Joes generosity to others cannot be
understated, as he spent his life caring, listening, and helping
people, often without thanks or acknowledgement.
He is survived by niece Mary Lou Mumford, of Roanaoke, Virginia
and John A. Siemont (nephew) of Schenectady, New York.
Surviving family includes his son Gary R. Garrick of Santa Cruz,
and grandson Anduin (Gary Jr.) Garrick also of Santa Cruz. He
is survived by his daughter, Sharon G. Foster, and her husband,
Michael Foster of Redwood City, and their adult children Joshua
Foster of Georgia and Sandra Foster, also of Redwood City. His
daughters, Stasia K. Siemont, of SanMateo andKathleenSiemont-
Spear, Esq. of Napa, California and their families will miss him
tremendously.
The nondenominational services celebrating Joes life will be
held at Sneider & Sullivan, in San Mateo California. Joe Siemont
will be interred at the family plot in Skylawn Cemetery, next to
his loving wife, June who predeceased him in 2008. The family
wishes the funeral and remembrance services to remain private.
Charitable donations in Joseph Siemonts memory can be sent to

Mateo, CA 94402 (650) 345-7388.

LOS ANGELES Facing a high-risk elec-
tion next month, Gov. Jerry Brown began
campaigning publicly Tuesday to win support
for a proposed tax increase that he promises
will invigorate California universities long
trapped in cycles of cutbacks and tuition
increases.
Appearing at the University of California,
Los Angeles, the Democratic governor said
he recognized the state was in tough econom-
ic times, a statement that appeared aimed at
voters who might be uneasy about sending
more tax dollars to Sacramento when house-
hold budgets are stressed lately by run-
away gas prices.
To make California exceptional, taxpayers
needed to open their wallets to strengthen the
next generation, he said. Brown never men-
tioned specics of his Proposition 30, which
would boost the sales tax by a quarter cent for
four years, while income taxes for people
who make more than $250,000 a year would
be raised for seven years.
A lot is riding on this election, Brown
told several hundred students gathered on an
outdoor plaza. This is not just about a tax.
This is also about California.
Brown has made passage of the proposal
his top priority, but recent polls have found
only tepid support from likely voters, with
many others undecided. He alternately
expressed condence and a sense of urgency
that students get involved and push friends
and family to vote so tuition would remain in
check.
My plea to you is dont be complacent. We
can win. ... You can avoid that tuition hike if
you get out and do some things, Brown said.
Im going to go up and down the state and
mobilize everybody I can.
It was Browns first public campaign
appearance since August for the initiative,
which if rejected calls for $6 billion in spend-
ing cuts, mostly to K-12 schools.
Students in the crowd were overwhelming-
ly in favor of the proposition, saying they
feared another round of higher costs.
Years of state budget cuts have led to sky-
rocketing tuition and reduced course offer-
ings at Californias two- and four-year col-
leges. Undergraduate tuition in the UC sys-
tem is $12,191 this year, not including room,
board, books or campus fees. In the 2000-01
academic year, UCs base tuition was $3,429.
Ive seen tuition prices go up and up, said
library science graduate student Kelsey
Knox, 22, who said she had worked as a dor-
mitory adviser to help make ends meet.
Education is something we need.
At one point Brown gently taunted a hand-
ful of students who chanted Down with
Brown and held up signs calling for defeat
of the proposition. Hey, thats pathetic, he
said when he urged them to chant in unison.
Jake Akers, a 19-year-old history and
Russian language student holding a No on
30 sign, said he was weary of mounting debt
and irresponsible spending in Sacramento.
Gov. Brown pushes college
students to support tax hike
My plea to you is dont be complacent.
We can win. ...You can avoid that tuition hike
if you get out and do some things. ... Im going to go
up and down the state and mobilize everybody I can.

WASHINGTON More than 56 million
Americans on Social Security will get raises
averaging $19 a month come January, one of
the smallest hikes since automatic adjust-
ments for ination were adopted in 1975, the
government announced Tuesday.
Much of the 1.7 percent increase in benets
could get wiped out by higher Medicare pre-
miums, which are deducted from Social
Security payments.
At the same time, about 10 million working
people who make more than $110,100 will be
hit with a tax increase next year because more
of their wages will be subjected to Social
Security taxes.
The cost-of-living adjustment, or
COLA, on payments is tied to a govern-
ment measure of inflation released
Tuesday. It confirms that inflation has
been relatively low over the past year,
despite the recent surge in gasoline prices.
Social Security recipients received a 3.6
percent increase in benets this year after get-
ting none the previous two years.
The annual COLA is critically important
to the nancial security of the (56) million
Americans receiving Social Security benets
today, said Nancy LeaMond, AARPs execu-
tive vice president. Amid rising costs for
food, utilities and health care and continued
economic uncertainty, the COLA helps mil-
lions of older Americans maintain their stan-
dard of living, keeping many out of poverty.
Social Security payments average $1,131 a
month, or $13,572 a year. A 1.7 percent
increase amounts to a $19 increase each
month, or about $230 a year.
Payments for retired workers are a little
higher on average, about $1,237, so the typi-
cal increase will be slightly larger. Disabled
workers get a little less on average, about
$1,111 a month, so their typical increase will
be a little smaller. Social Security also pro-
vides benets to millions of spouses, widows,
widowers and children.
About 8 million people who receive
Supplemental Security Income, the disability
program for poor people, will also receive the
COLA. In all, the increase will affect about
one in ve U.S. residents.
Since 1975, the annual COLA has averaged
4.2 percent. Only ve times has it been below
2 percent, including the two times it was zero.
Before 1975, it took an act of Congress to
increase Social Security payments.
While this modest increase will help,
much of the COLA will be consumed by
health care and prescription costs, which con-
tinually outpace ination, LeaMond said.
Medicare Part B premiums, which cover
doctor visits, are expected to rise by about $7
per month for 2013, according to government
projections. Since the premiums are deducted
from Social Security payments, that would eat
up more than a third of the average COLA.
The Part B premium is currently $99.90 a
month for most seniors. Medicare is expected
to announce the premium for 2013 in the
coming weeks.
Social Security is supported by a 12.4 per-
cent tax on wages up to $110,100. That
threshold will increase to $113,700 next year,
resulting in higher taxes for nearly 10 million
workers and their employers, according to the
Social Security Administration.
Social Security benefits get a 1.7 percent bump
By Judy Lin
SACRAMENTO California Health and
Human Services Secretary Diana Dooley said
she is condent the state can eliminate a
health insurance program serving more than
860,000 children from low-income families
without disrupting the quality of care.
The state is eliminating its Healthy Families
program and moving those children into the
states Medicaid program to save a projected
$73 million a year. A state Senate committee
has scheduled a hearing Tuesday to examine
the transition.
Dooley said in an interview Monday that
the shift will help streamline childrens
health care and reduce government complex-
ities. But state lawmakers and childrens
advocates are concerned about the possibility
of having childrens medical services disrupt-
ed.
Assemblyman Richard Pan, D-Sacramento,
said he is concerned about the number of doc-
tors willing to accept more Medi-Cal clients.
State ofcials estimate that health providers
will receive about 15 percent less under Medi-
Cal, which is Californias version of the fed-
eral Medicaid program for the poor.
My main concern is that those children
continue to have access to the care they need,
Pan, a pediatrician, said in an interview
Monday. Ultimately its about the quality of
care.
The Department of Health Care Services
has issued a strategic plan that proposes to
move all 863,000 children enrolled in Healthy
Families into Medi-Cal by Sept. 1, 2013.
Families are expected to be moved in four
phases, depending on whether their doctors
and health plans already accept Medi-Cal.
The state plans to start notifying parents next
month.
According to the state, eliminating Healthy
Families is projected to save the state $13 mil-
lion this scal year and $73 million annually
once the transition is completed.
We recognize these are austere times. The
state employees who took a 5 percent pay cut
took the pay cut as loyal dedicated public ser-
vants, Dooley said. I believe (health
providers) will continue to serve even though
there will be a reduction. It does require some
sacrifice, not from the children, but will
require sacrice from the people who provide
care.
Health shift will affect 860,000 California children

OPINION 9
Saturday parking fees
Editor,
City ofcials of San Mateo: I read
your downtown marketing phrase, All
the Ingredients again, but ingredients
do not make themselves into a cake.
These new parking meters you have
installed are in fact ingredient scatter-
ers! Do you think that since no one can
piggyback onto a previous payer, there
must be joy somewhere about the extra
revenue? Please think again. This is a
wound, and you have poured more acid
into it. Everyone knows you are mak-
ing more money, and many feel
exploited and further alienated by you.
A wise Native American once said that
only a fool puts a road down the mid-
dle of their town. In Europe, city cen-
ters are gathering places and the roads
go around them. In the case of San
Mateo, that road has become an even
higher barrier.
Im suggesting that you rst, do
something that might gain us a name
and perhaps increase the success of our
city. Use the extra revenue to end
Saturday parking fees. Do you want a
more vibrant community? Then lets
become the rst city in the Bay Area
who has free parking on Saturday and
see what happens. Try it for a year or
two. Think 25th Avenue, think 37th
Avenue and think of all the venerable
places that would benet from free
Saturday commerce. Give your nine to
ve working stiffs and our struggling
proprietors a break. This is a very easy
and powerful way to send a positive
message to everyone. With this agging
economy, the timing couldnt be better.

We need leadership
Editor,
Desmond Tuck wrote in his letter to
the editor, Lack of leadership in the
Oct. 13 edition of the Daily Journal,
that the single most important issue in
this presidential race is leadership.
Then the next question is what is lead-
ership and what direction are we look-
ing for.
With President Bush we had a strong
leader, which we know because he told
us so every day. We know his leader-
ship resolutely marched us into
Baghdad. Somehow Bush failed to get
bin Laden, but no one is perfect. What
we did get was a steady drumbeat of
failed mortgages, the stock market col-
lapse, many millions of jobs lost and a
headlong rush to the very brink of a
ruined economy.
Now we can readily believe that Mitt
Romney would be every bit as strong a
leader as George W. Bush. However,
its just possible that President Obama
would be more willing to let the
American people set the priorities
rather than using his own gut.

Letters to the editor
B
urlingame schools are quickly
running out of space. Do a
quick check of strollers along
Burlingame Avenue and you can see
that the district is falling victim to its
own success. With high test scores and
a solid reputation for a variety of edu-
cational offerings, many of its schools
are threatened with space limitations
and may not be able to physically
accommodate smaller class sizes that
are often pointed to as a way to ensure
individual attention.
In response, officials from the
Burlingame Elementary School
District are asking voters for a $56
million bond measure for school
improvements. Voters had passed a
similar bond measure in 2007, and that
money was used for facility improve-
ments at nearly all the districts
schools. However, capacity is further
limited by new enrollment that is
stretching the districts capabilities.
Money from the 2007 bond measure
was used to purchase Hoover School
at a market-bottom cost. That school
was sold when enrollment was drop-
ping and while it would have been
nice if some of the proceeds were
reserved for the possibility of purchas-
ing the school back when enrollment
returned higher, that was years ago
when this particular future could not
have been predicted. Now that the
school is back in the districts fold, it
needs renovations to bring it up to
todays standards.
While that is the most visible need
for the district, this particular bond
measure will also be used to modern-
ize the districts other elementary
schools and bring them up to todays
standards. Burlingame Intermediate
School will also see some benefit from
this measure, which is key since the
enrollment bubble has yet to make its
way through the middle school.
Another smart component to this
measure is that a portion of it will be
used for energy-efficient measures like
solar power that will ultimately end up
saving the district money. The previ-
ous bond measure mentioned solar
power as well as modernizing Franklin
and Lincoln elementary schools, but
those projects were set aside as the
need for new classrooms took prece-
dence. While that has kept class sizes
smaller, the need for additional space
is not being met.
Burlingame schools have prioritized
academic programs by ensuring the
district has top-notch teachers. As a
result, the district has a reputation for
high student achievement. This bond
will cost the average homeowner $30 a
year for each $100,000 of their homes
assessed value. Those who have been
in their homes the longest are more
likely to not have school-age children
and will pay less. Those with strollers
on Burlingame Avenue are likely newer
residents and will pay more for the
schools from which their children will
soon benet. And with quality schools,
with appropriate capacity and facilities
for this day and age, property values
will surely rise. So if its not for the
schools and the citys students, then it
could very well be for the nancial
benet of having an even better reputa-
tion for the citys school district.

Flawed females?
T
he overemphasis on attractiveness diminishes
womens credibility and diverts attention away
from their capabilities and accomplishments.
Deborah L. Rhodes, The Beauty Bias.
Have you seen the womens magazines lately including
those like Us and People? I leafed through a few of
them while waiting in a doctors ofce recently and was
amazed at their insipidity. Some time ago, I subscribed to
McCalls and Ladies Home
Journal. Theyd offer a few
interesting articles and some-
times Id pick up on a deli-
cious-looking recipe, but, not
being attuned to such things, I
never paid much attention to
the numerous pages devoted
to womens appearance.
Finally I gave up on them
when such ads and articles
greatly outnumbered anything
else. I got tired of their per-
sistent efforts to make women
into some kind of liberated
Barbie dolls that played right
into the women as sex objects theme.
The articles that bothered me the most were those that
urged women to deplore their physical aws and to spend
much time and energy (and, of course, money) to correct
them. For example, in one article titled Born to Be Fat?
How to foil your genetic prophecies we were told, as a
woman you are unfortunately destined to carry around a cer-
tain amount of padding. Another: Anyone can whittle
down to a healthy weight. Plus: There are some body aws
you cant change, but you can conceal them.
I agree with Dr. Judith Rodin who wrote Body Traps:
What a tragedy that women today live with this great self-
consciousness. Television, magazines and movies present
and reinforce the glittering, false image, but we have taken it
for our own. ... Body traps have become double and triple
binds that limit other aspects of our lives happiness,
friendships, careers, families.
As I looked at those magazines, I kept wanting to ask,
Barring being seriously overweight, who is to say that the
way Mother Nature created females is wrong? Wouldnt it
be better if women were able to accept themselves the way
they are? Isnt it a revealing comment on the sickness of our
society when women who are not womanly (carrying around
a certain amount of padding) are extolled as models of
perfection and women who are shaped the way nature
intended are in need of xing?
If your hips are too wide and/or your bosom too small,
if you dont measure down to the emaciated ideal body of a
fashion model, you just arent trying hard enough. For heav-
ens sake, get with it. Pare your hips, inate your bosom,
starve, spend hours at the gym, disguise or cover those ugly
aws, look in the mirror and weep about that wrinkle. How
can you have any self-respect if you dont spend much time,
energy and money trying to become a corporate fabricated
mannequin? As Ms. Rhodes wrote: Only 5 percent of
American women are in the same weight category of models
and actresses, and efforts to replicate their gures often lead
to eating disorders and related psychological dysfunctions.
This is all a part of a media blitz by greedy corporate
interests that demand women become obsessed with appear-
ance and conformity which convinces many they are not
good enough the way they are, that what is on the surface is
all that counts and that to be desirable they have to try to
make themselves into something they are not.
We owe this stinkin thinkin, as Ms. Rhodes describes
it, to: Multiple social and economic forces have reinforced
the importance of appearance. Among the most signicant
have been the market, technology, the media and advertise-
ments. Taken together, they lay the foundation for discrimi-
nation based on appearance and the personal costs that it
imposes. A $200 billion global industry is heavily invest-
ed in fueling anxieties over appearance and a need for self-
improvement. Poignant evidence: In a womens magazine
poll that asked women about their goals in life, by far the
greatest number answered that their chief goal was to lose
weight.
If women are ever to truly breathe the fresh air of libera-
tion, they must see through the conspiracy and think for
themselves. They must be aware of those who stand to gain
from keeping them insecure and using them by putting on
the pressure to adhere to our addicted societys distorted
image of female perfection. Youd think they would realize
how much all of this foolish nonsense takes time away from
human relationships, from personal growth, expansion of the
mind and development of the psyche, the intellect and the
spirit. Why? Because as Anne Wilson Schaef wrote in
When Society Becomes an Addict, When you believe you
are not a legitimate human being in and of yourself and that
your legitimacy hinges on outside validation and approval,
you live in constant fear.

Vikram Pandit, who steered Citigroup
through the 2008 nancial crisis and the
choppy years that followed, abruptly left
the bank on Tuesday, stepping down as
CEO and as a director.
The move shocked Wall Street, and
Citigroup offered no explanation. There
had been no hint of the departure
Monday, when the bank discussed its
strong third-quarter earnings in lengthy
calls with nancial analysts and reporters.
A second top executive resigned as part
of the shake-up: President and Chief
Operating Ofcer John Havens, who was
also CEO of Citis Institutional Client
Group, which serves global companies,
banks and governments.
Pandit was replaced immediately by
Michael Corbat, 52, who had been CEO
of its Europe, Middle East and Africa
division. Corbat joined the bank in 1983,
just after graduating from Harvard.
The Wall Street Journal reported that
the departures followed a clash between
Pandit and the companys board over
strategy and business performance,
including at the group run by Havens.
In a conference call late Tuesday with
analysts and reporters, Corbat and
Citigroup chairman Michael ONeill
remained vague about the sudden change.
What happened is that Vikram submit-
ted his resignation and we accepted it,
ONeill said more than once. Corbat said
the changes do not reect any desire to
change Citigroups strategic direction.
Analysts suspected there was more to
the story. Pandits departure from the
board is a clear indication that this was a
complete and unexpected break between
Pandit, 55, and Citi directors, said Chris
Whalen, a bank analyst and senior man-
aging director of Tangent Capital Partners
in New York.

Ination is low, earnings are high,
investors are happy.
Stocks shot higher Tuesday, giving the
market its biggest gain in a month.
Results at Mattel, Goldman Sachs, and
Johnson & Johnson were all above
expectations.
It was the second day of broad gains
following a down week last week.
Investors had been worried headed into
the third-quarter earnings season that
corporate profits wouldnt be good
enough to justify the run-up in stocks in
recent months. While earnings havent
been out-of-the-park great, they havent
been as bad as some had feared.
Also Tuesday, the Labor Department
said consumer prices rose just 0.1 per-
cent last month, not counting food and
energy costs. And gasoline prices have
come down since then. Low ination
leaves consumers with more money to
spend, and leaves the Federal Reserve
free to continue its efforts to boost the
economy.
In addition, an index of homebuilder
sentiment came in at its highest level
since 2006, suggesting that the construc-
tion industry is making a comeback.
The picture of the economy is one
thats still proving to be resilient to a lot
of the problems that investors are wor-
ried about, said Gary Thayer, chief
macro strategist for Wells Fargo
Advisors.
The Dow Jones industrial average rose
127.55 points to close at 13,551.78, its
biggest gain since Sept. 13.
The Standard & Poors 500 index rose
14.79 points to 1,454.92, and the Nasdaq
composite rose 36.99 to 3,101.17.
The gains were broad, with nine out of
10 industry groups in the S&P 500 index
rising. Telecom stocks had a tiny
decline. Materials stocks rose 2.4 per-
cent.
Mattel jumped 5 percent after report-
ing that brisk sales of American Girl
dolls and Fisher-Price toys sent the com-
panys prot well above analysts fore-
casts. The stock gained $1.78 to $37.20.
Johnson & Johnson rose 95 cents to
$69.55 after revenues came in ahead of
Wall Streets forecasts.
Among companies reporting after the
closing bell, IBM fell in after-hours trad-
ing after its revenues came up short of
Wall Streets forecasts. Intel fell after its
earnings and revenue came in below
forecasts.

Developments related to Googles privacy concerns
European regulators have asked Google to clarify its new
privacy policy and make it easier for users to opt out of it. Its
the latest concern raised by regulatory ofcials. Here are some
developments related to Google Inc. and privacy over the
years:
March 30, 2011: The Federal Trade Commission announces
a settlement with Google. The search and advertising compa-
ny agrees to adopt a comprehensive privacy program to settle
federal charges that it deceived users and violated its own pri-
vacy policy when it launched a social-networking service
called Buzz. The settlement mandates independent audits to
oversee and verify Googles privacy program every other year
for the next 20 years. The settlement also requires Google to
obtain user consent before sharing consumer information with
third parties if it alters a service to use the data in a way that
would violate its existing privacy policy. Google signed the
deal in October 2011.
Gap announces management restructuring
NEW YORK Gap has announced a management over-
haul aimed at enabling the retailer to respond more quickly to
customers needs across the globe.
The change will put the North American, international,
online, outlet and franchise divisions under a single global
executive for each of the companys brands Gap, Banana
Republic and Old Navy.
The San Francisco-based clothing chain also said Tuesday
that it will form a new innovation and digital strategy team to
further advance its efforts in that area.
Intel sees weak 4Q, little Windows 8 bounce
NEW YORK Intel Corp., the worlds largest chipmaker,
expects cold winds to blow this fall, as consumers shift their
spending toward tablets and a weak global economy curbs cor-
porate spending on computers. When it reported third-quarter
results Tuesday, Intel said the usual bounce in sales due to the
holiday season is likely to be cut in half this year even
though Microsoft is launching a new operating system that it
says will get consumers excited about PCs again.

TIGERS CLOSING IN ON PENNANT: JUSTIN VERLANDER WAS AGAIN ON TOP OF HIS GAME AS DETROIT BEATS YANKEES 2-1 >>> PAGE 12
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
With Tuesdays matchup between Carlmont
and Menlo-Atherton well into its second hour
of girls tennis, M-A coach Tom Sorenson
turned to one of the spectators and summed up
the action Drama times 10.
And really, why would you expect anything
less from the two teams battling for Peninsula
Athletic League Bay Division supremacy?
Coming into their second league showdown,
Carlmont owned a half-game lead in the
standings after taking down the Bears 5-2 ear-
lier in the year.
But as of yesterday, that same lead belongs
to the Bears after M-A exerted their revenge
and downed Carlmont 4-3.
We knew it would be even closer than the
rst match was no question, Sorenson
said. We presented them with a different
lineup this time and we hoped that our dou-
bles teams would be improved and they
were.
We came in knowing that it would be very
close, said Carlmont head coach Amina
Doar Halsey, and I coach my players to be
ready for this and be aware of the fact that it
was going to be a close match. They all
stepped up to it and M-A stepped up to it as
well. It was as close as I expected it.
The Bears jumped out to a quick 3-0 lead
after their No. 1 singles, No. 1 and No. 3 dou-
bles made quick work of Carlmonts. But the
Scots didnt panic and it took a three-set win
by Valerie Giordano in No. 4 singles to nal-
ly seal the deal two hours and 15 minutes into
the afternoon.

For the College of San Mateo womens water
polo team, the time has come to take care of busi-
ness.
And with three league games remaining on the
regular season schedule, the Bulldogs nd them-
selves in a position of control and thats a great
place to be.
The perspective is clear, said CSM head coach
Randy Wright. What needs to happen is clear.
And unlike other years, we are still in control of
our destiny. But one thing is for sure, this team, its
one game at a time.
Last weekend during the Big 8/Coast
Conference Crossover Tournament, the Bulldogs
proved they know a little something about taking
care of business. Going in, it was Wrights goal for
the team to win all four of their matches. And
despite fatigue and early mental lapses, CSM
accomplished its goal by going 4 for 4.
I think the common theme on that Saturday
was, taking care of business in the second half is
not going to be the way to go when we start play-
ing these last few games here, Wright said. You
can only go to the well so many times before it
comes back and bites you.
CSM steamrolled Las Positas College and
Sacramento City College in Games 1 and 2,
outscoring them 29-2. Erica Staben led the way
with nine goals. Jasmine Zaldivar added six
scores. Miya Oto had ve goals while Daria
Kekuewa added 26 saves.
But Saturday was a different story. While they
were both wins, the Bulldogs needed strong sec-
ond half showing to pull off victories against
Fresno (6-2) and Delta (7-6).
Were a small team, Wright said. When we
play four games in two days, whether the games
are hard or easy, whether the scores are close or
not, its real taxing on my team. And by fourth
game, the momentum, our speed, our pop, you can
just see it it looked at. But this group, its a
really gritty group. They grind. They want to win.
They want to achieve.
Thats the one thing we have going for us this

Coming into this week, the Sequoia girls vol-
leyball team found itself two matches behind
rst-place South City in the Peninsula Athletic
Leagues Ocean Division standings.
Tuesday, the two teams met in Redwood City
and if there ever was a must-win match for the
Cherokees, this was it. The race for the crown
suddenly became a lot tighter as Sequoia, in ve
scintillating sets, knocked off previously unbeat-
en South City 21-25, 25-20, 30-28, 22-25, 16-14.
Weve had a really good season, said
Sequoia coach Jane Slater. We had a good pre-
season, winning two tournaments. We want to
show we can beat the top teams.
(The difference was) a little bit of luck. It
could have gone either way.
After splitting the rst four games, the match
came down to Game 5 and after spending the bet-
ter part of two hours playing to 25, the nal game
is a race to 15. South City (8-1 Ocean Division,
19-8 overall) appeared to be in the drivers seat,
but Sequoia ended the match on a 6-1 run. A
South City setting error tied the game at 13 and a
block for a point from Angela Hudelson put the
Cherokees up 14-13. A kill from the Warriors
Malia Muin tied the game at 14, which meant the
winner needed to win the game by two points.
Done, but not without some controversy.
Sequoias Joy Robenson rose for an attack and
found the back corner right in front of the
linesperson, South City coach Enrico Salazar and
the entire Warriors bench. When the ball landed,
the linesperson emphatically snapped her ag
down, indicating the ball was in, while Salazar
and the Warriors bench believed the ball to be out.
The call stood and Sequoia served for match
point. The Cherokees sealed the win when a
Hudelson hit went off the South City block and
out of bounds.
That was a great match, Salazar said. I cant
be prouder of my team. Sometimes you lose,
sometimes you win. Its just the breaks of the
game.

ST. LOUIS Giants manager Bruce Bochy
expects Marco Scutaro to be in his lineup card
for Game 3 of the NL championship series, two
days after St. Louis slugger Matt Holliday
plowed into the San Francisco second baseman.
I think so. It feels much better, Scutaro said
Tuesday night after participating in a workout at
Busch Stadium. I thought it was going to be
worse. Normally, the next day is when you feel
it the most.
Neither seemed too inter-
ested in any talk of retalia-
tion.
Whats on our mind is to
go out and play our best
ball, Bochy said Tuesday
night, a day before the best-
of-seven series resumes at
Busch Stadium with the
Giants and St. Louis
Cardinals tied at one game
apiece. Thats over. You have to move on.
Scutaro said a shutout from Matt Cain would
be perfect and knew nothing about get-even
plans. If Matt Holliday approached him before
the game, he joked that the Cardinals slugger
would be in for a ght.
The recollection of the play was vivid.
All of a sudden, I just saw this train coming,
he said. I didnt have time to do pretty much
anything. I dont even know how I threw the ball
to rst, but I think I did, huh?
He added that if Holliday had slid any farther,
probably youre going to make it to shortstop.
Results of an MRI exam showed Scutaro has
a strained left hip after Hollidays late slide
while busting up a double play. Bochy said
Scutaro also had a sore left knee, and the man-
ager had planned on holding him out of practice
after the team ight arrived from the West Coast.
Were being hopeful he can go, Bochy said.
I will say hes more optimistic about where
hes at right now than when it rst happened.
Cain, who will face fellow 16-game winner
Kyle Lohse, said little about any possible ani-
mosity. Cain added that he wouldnt be afraid to
throw inside against Holliday.

KANSAS CITY, Kan. Clint Dempsey is
precisely the kind of scrappy player that
Jurgen Klinsmann covets on his teams, an
attacker who is willing to throw his body
around for the greater good.
On Tuesday night, the rest of the United
States team played just like him.
Dempsey had a pair of goals and assisted on
Carlos Bocanegras equalizer, and the U.S.
nally showed some of the gritty, proactive
style Klinsmann has been preaching to rally
past Guatemala 3-1 and reach next years nal
round of World Cup qualifying.
They understood the moment, said
Klinsmann, who has eschewed the defensive
style embraced by former U.S. coach Bob
Bradley for one predicated on always moving
forward.
We expected a very difcult qualifying
campaign, and thats what this is, Klinsmann
said. We made clear were the number one
team in this group and the next round will be
harder.
Facing their rst elimination game in quali-
fying since 2000 and only second in 23 years,
the Americans needed merely a draw to
advance to the six-team nals in North and
Central America and the Caribbean. The nal
round also will include Mexico, Costa Rica,
Honduras, Panama and Jamaica.
After Carlos Ruiz put Guatemala ahead in
the fth minute, Dempsey set up Bocanegras
goal in the 10th minute, then scored in the
18th and 36th to help the U.S. (4-1-1) seek-
ing its seventh straight World Cup appearance
top its seminal group with 13 points.
Were excited to get to the next round,
said Dempsey, whose 30 international goals
are tied with Brian McBride for third-most in
American history.
Dempseys 2 goals helps U.S. win

SANTA CLARA Patrick Willis had no
chance last December to do his part in stop-
ping Marshawn Lynch and helping keep San
Franciscos impressive streak alive: 36
straight games without allowing a 100-yard
rusher.
The All-Pro linebacker
missed last seasons sec-
ond meeting with the divi-
sion-rival Seattle
Seahawks, sidelined for
three games with an
injured right hamstring.
And San Franciscos run
of holding rushers below
100 yards ended when
Lynch went for 107 in the
49ers 19-17 win at Seattle on Dec. 24. Now,
the Seahawks star comes to Candlestick Park
for Thursday nights prime time NFC West
showdown with a healthy Willis waiting on
the other side of the ball.
He runs the ball hard, a very elusive guy,
Willis said Tuesday. Hes a very hard tackle.
Were going to have to have everybody
swarming to the ball and not expecting one
guy to make the play. Hes by far one of the
best running backs in the league and will be
one of the best backs we face all year long.
Weve got to face him twice.
And the Niners, tied with Seattle and
Arizona for rst place at 4-2, will be looking
to bounce back from Sundays embarrassing
26-3 home defeat to the defending Super Bowl
champion Giants.
Slowing down Lynch will be a top priority if
the Niners are going to win this one. He ranks
rst in the NFC and third in the NFL with 549
yards on 128 carries.
Their running game is the bread and butter
of their offense, defensive coordinator Vic
Fangio said Tuesday. And everything works
off of that. Hes one of the best backs in the
league. Hes the best back we played last year
by far. He broke more tackles than any back
we played against last year. He broke the most
against us.
Willis was held out of the regular season
nale in 2010 for the rst missed start of his
career since San Francisco selected him with
the 11th overall pick in 2007 out of
Mississippi that time because of a broken
bone in his hand. Then, going down again late
last season for the NFC West champions was
even harder for him. The 49ers went 13-3 and
earned a rst-round bye in the playoffs.
It was very tough. Im a very competitive
guy and I love being out there on the eld any
chance I get, Willis said. Sometimes you
may take things for granted, but when you
dont get to do the things you love to do, it
stings a little bit. I feel good. We feel good. We
know Thursdays a big game for us. One,
because its the next game but also its a game
in our division. We want to start it off right.

without a 100-yard rusher dated to Ryan
Grants 129-yard day for Green Bay on Nov.
22, 2009.

DETROIT Justin Verlander took a
shutout into the ninth inning and the Detroit
Tigers held on to beat the New York Yankees
2-1 Tuesday night for a 3-0 lead in the AL
championship series.
Phil Coke gave up consecutive singles with
two outs in the ninth before striking out post-
season star Raul Ibanez for his second save in
two games.
Verlander allowed only a pair of singles by
Ichiro Suzuki and a leadoff homer by Eduardo
Nunez in the ninth. Delmon Young hit a solo
home run for the Tigers, and Miguel Cabrera
had an RBI double.
Yankees starter Phil Hughes was lifted in

The Tigers were on a historic pitching run
even before their ace took the mound Tuesday.
With the exception of a four-run ninth inning
against Detroit closer Jose Valverde in Game
1, New York had been shut out for the entire
series.
Nunezs homer snapped a streak of 37
innings by Detroit starters without allowing an
earned run, the longest in a single postseason
in the live-ball era.
Verlander fell just short of a second straight
shutout after stopping the Oakland Athletics in
the decisive fth game of the division series.
He struck out only three but kept New York off
the scoreboard until the homer to left eld by
Nunez, the rst run allowed by the powerful
right-hander since he gave up a leadoff homer
to Coco Crisp in Game 1 of the ALDS.

BERKELEY The sun is shin-
ing, the days are warm and No. 22
Stanford and California still have half
a season left to play entering the
115th edition of the Big Game rival-
ry.
If the timing seems strange, thats
because it is.
In the rst of what is expected to be
at least one Pac-12 rivalry moved
from its normal date some years
because of the expanded leagues
squeezed schedule, the Bay Area
schools will meet at remodeled
Memorial Stadium on Saturday
under an odd October sky. The teams
traditionally play the nal conference
game against each other if not the
last game altogether.
Stanford coach David Shaw and
Cals Jeff Tedford both said preparing
for each other so soon seems a little
awkward. Each programs athletic
director denounced the date when it
was announced. And almost every
player, particularly the upperclass-
men, admitted the schedule seems
out of sorts.
I dont like it, Shaw said. I think
its weird. I think its different.
As much as the schools and confer-
ence tried, the atypical timing of this
seasons Big Game couldnt be
avoided.
The Pac-12 championship, which
began last season when the league
added Colorado and Utah, takes up
the rst weekend of December a
date often used for rivalry games. The
conferences landmark TV deal,
worth about $3 billion, added more
Thursday night games. And per
league policy, teams must have a bye
week the Saturday before Thursday
night games.
The result left Stanford (4-2, 2-1)
and Cal (3-4, 2-2) with three options:
play on Thanksgiving weekend,
which both rejected, citing concerns
about midweek festivities during the
holiday. The second was to play the
Saturday before Thanksgiving, which
member athletic directors shot down,
saying that would strain other parts of
the league schedule. And the third
was to play Oct. 20, which athletic
directors who make the schedule
formed a majority to force the
schools to accept.
Were going to prepare and were
going to play. Theres nothing I can
do about it, Tedford said. But its a
little bit awkward, because you nor-
mally play your traditional rival at the
end of the year.
And while only the Big Game is
impacted this season, more in the
Pac-12 will be soon.
In years like 2012, when the calen-
dar has only 14 Saturdays during
football season, at least one game has
to be shifted to create exibility. That
wont be a problem the next two
years, but come 2015, there will be
four straight 14-week seasons.
That means rivalry games such as
Oregon-Oregon State, Southern
California-UCLA, Washington-
Washington State and Arizona-
Arizona State will likely have to be
shufed. The conference plans to
rotate rivalry games so the same pro-
grams arent playing earlier than they
want to every year.
The Pac-12 Conference values the
importance of our historic rivalry
games and the importance of sched-
uling them in traditional end-of-sea-
son dates, Pac-12 Commissioner
Larry Scott said when the schedule
was released. However, with the
addition of our championship foot-
ball game the last week of the season,
and new television agreements com-
mencing in 2012, there will be addi-
tional priorities that need to be bal-
anced when making the schedule that
will mean occasional date adjust-
ments to rivalry games.
The Stanford-Cal rivalry, like so
many others across the country, has
typically been a way for one or
both programs to often make their
season on the nal day or wreck
the others.
Sometimes the result will affect
bowl eligibility. Other times even
save a coachs or quarterbacks job.
Mostly, though, its about bragging
rights all winter. This year?
Right now, its kind of weird,
Stanford senior linebacker Chase
Thomas said. Its October, its still
warm outside.
The Cardinal have won the last two
matchups and three of the last ve.
But Stanford no longer has Andrew
Luck and has yet to score an offen-
sive touchdown in two road games
both losses this season under
inconsistent quarterback Josh Nunes
and a group of young wide receivers
who dropped four balls in a 20-13
overtime loss at Notre Dame last
weekend.
The Golden Bears, meanwhile,
have won two straight for the rst
time all season and are a looking for
an upset to launch them into the sea-
sons second half.
I remember when we beat them
last. That was really fun and kind of
one of the highlights of my season as
a freshman, Cal center Brian
Schwenke said. To be in the middle
of the season right now playing them,
its a little different.
Adding to the oddness of the
October matchup, the game will also
be the rst at Memorial Stadium
since Cals long-time home under-
went a $321 million seismic retrot
and renovation.
In a series that dates back to 1892,
the schools have played on both cam-
puses and in San Francisco. Theyve
never played in October until
Saturday.
It doesnt matter when it is or
where it is, Shaw said. Well be up
for it.
Big Game comes early this year for Stanford, Cal
Were going to prepare and were going to play.
Theres nothing I can do about it. But its a little bit awkward,
because you normally play your traditional rival at the end of the year.
Jeff Tedford, Cal coach
Head official: Review correct
in Notre Dame win Saturday
The national coordinator of
NCAA football ofcials says the
decision to uphold the ruling on the
eld for the last play of the Stanford-
Notre Dame game was correct.
Field ofcials ruled Stanford run-
ning back Stepfan Taylors progress
had been stopped before he reached
the ball across the goal line for what
would have been a potential tying
touchdown on fourth-and-goal in
overtime.
Replay ofcials reviewed the play
and the call was conrmed, giving
Notre Dame a 20-13 win Saturday.
National coordinator of ofcials
Rogers Redding told the AP in a
phone interview Tuesday there was
nothing unusual about the way of-
cials on the eld or in the replay
booth handled the decisive play.
He also says that from the replay
he saw, he would have to let that
call stand.
Most of the comments I heard
were, It looked like to me that or It
sure looked like this. The replay
ofcial has to say, There is no doubt
in my mind.
Redding said a runners progress
is reviewable only on plays that
could produce rst downs or touch-
downs.
In the case of the last play of Notre
Dames goal line stand against the
Cardinal, Taylor was lying on a pile
of defenders and his knees were
never down. One of his elbows
might have touched the turf before
he stuck the ball into the end zone,
but there was no clear evidence of
that for replay ofcials to spot.
The main issue up for review was
whether Taylors progress was
stopped, Redding said.

The match featured the balanced offense of South City
against Sequoias do-everything Mikayla Wilkes. The Warriors
were led by Erin Lovelace, who nished with 21 kills one
of three Warriors in double gures. Muin added 17 and Gaea
Salazar nished with 15 kills. Sequoia got 11 kills from
Robenson, but the real star for the Cherokees was Wilkes, who
had a match-high 22 kills to go along with 27 digs.
[Wilkes] does everything, Slater said. Shes our major
offensive (threat) and major defensive (threat).
Early on, it appeared South City was destined to move one
step closer to grabbing the Ocean Division title. Despite being
down 15-10, the Warriors nished with a ourish, winning 15
of the nal 21 points to capture Game 1. Back-to-back errors
from Sequoia allowed South City to turn a 20-19 decit into a
21-20 advantage. Three kills from Lovelace and a Sequoia net
violation gave the Warriors a 25-21 win.
In Game 2, it was Sequoia that found itself down midway
through the set and this time it was the Cherokees who rallied
to even the match at a game apiece. A South City rotation vio-
lation allowed Sequoia to tie the game at 14. A kill from
Sifagatogo Faaiu brought the Warriors up 15-14, but it would
be their last lead of the game. A Robenson kill tied the game
at 15 and a South City hitting error gave the Cherokees a 16-
15 lead, one they would not relinquish. A Sequoia hitting error
tied the match at 16, but the Cherokees won the next four
points for a 20-16 advantage and they went on to post a 25-20
decision.
The Cherokees then put the pressure on South City with a
win in Game 3, one neither team was willing to let go of easi-
ly. The game featured seven lead changes and 15 ties. Sequoia
built an early 13-8 lead, but South City came storming back
with a 6-0 run to take a 14-13 advantage. A 4-0 run by the
Cherokees gave them an 18-16 lead and after that, the rest of
the game went back and forth. Sequoia had one set point go by
when South Citys Muin dumped home a kill to tie the set at
24. An ace from Katie Kelley gave South City set point, but a
Wilkes kill tied the match at 25. Robenson gave Sequoia its
second set point on a kill, but a Cherokee setting error enabled
the Warriors to tie it at 26. Eventually, a kill from Wilkes and
a service winner from Samantha Leeper gave the Cherokees a
30-28 win and a 2-1 set lead.
I dont think Ive ever been part of a 30-28 game before,
Slater said.
With their backs against the wall, the Warriors came out in
Game 4 and played their best set of the match. After falling
behind 2-0, South City came roaring back with six kills and an
ace to take a 6-3 lead. The Warriors remained in control for
most of the match, but the Cherokees did not go down without
a ght. Sequoia steadily started winning back points. Back-to-
back kills from Wilkes and Natalie Harden got the Cherokees
to two points, 21-19, and a South City hitting error and a sur-
prise kill from Leeper and suddenly Sequoia was down a sin-
gle point, 22-21.
The Cherokees could not get over the hump, however, as the
Warriors held on for a 25-22 win to set up the deciding fth
set.
That was a tough match, slater said. Im just really happy
(we won). It was super fun. It was a little bit nerve wracking,
but in the end, thats what you want a good volleyball
match.

year. We havent lost any of the big games that we have a chance to
win, Wright said. Weve been successful in that regard.
CSM heads into the nal three games of the Coast Conference
schedule licking their wounds a bit after a 13-4 loss to Foothill. In
that match, the Owls outscored the Bulldogs 8-1 in the second half
to come away with the win.
Theyre going to wear us down, Wright said. I think what I
know and what the team learned is you cannot waste any opportu-
nities against a team like that. We had the ability to execute a very
complex game plan especially on defense. It really confused
them. It bottled them up.
CSM heads back to the pool Wednesday in a showdown against
West Valley a team that beat Cabrillo College (which best CSM).
The Bulldogs own an early-season win against the Vikings, but as
Wright put it, when you play at West Valley, its always kind of a
different team you better come ready to play [Wednesday]. I
dont care what the scores were or what they looked like over this
past weekend, you play West Valley at West Valley, its a different
kind of game. We really have to take care of business.
CSM follows that game with a rematch against Ohlone a team
they beat early in the season, too.
We just have to keep taking care of business,Wright said. That
will give us goal No. 1 which is to nish second or third in single-
match play so we dont match up with Foothill in semis of the con-
ference [tournament].

Americas Cup catamaran capsizes on SF Bay
A 72-foot catamaran being sailed by Americas Cup cham-
pion Oracle Racing capsized on San Francisco Bay on Tuesday
afternoon.
While some of the crew members were thrown into the
water, all were accounted for and there are no serious injuries,
according to a statement released by the syndicate.
The boat was being skippered by Jimmy Spithill, who led
Oracle to a two-race sweep of Alinghi of Switzerland in 2010
to bring the Americas Cup to San Francisco.
The boat was believed to be carrying 11 crewmen and possi-
bly some extra sailors and designers.
Tactician Tom Slingsby said the wing sail was badly dam-
aged. He said the wind was about 25 knots and there was a
strong ebb current. The crew was turning away from the wind,
and as the boat accelerated it pitch-poled, or went end-over-
end.

Carlmont really stepped up,
Sorenson said. I cant tell you how
strong and resilient a team Carlmont
is as well as M-A. They persevered.
They did everything true competitors
do to stay in it and give themselves a
chance to win their matches.
We had faith in our doubles,
Halsey said about not hitting the
panic button after dropping the rst
three points. Today, a lot of singles
players stepped up and made a big
difference for this team.
Sami Andrew got the rst point of
the afternoon for M-A, defeating Cori
Sidell rather impressively 6-2, 6-3.
I was really nervous because shes
such a good player and Ive never
beaten her before, Andrew said.
And I just went out and gured I had
nothing to lose. I just wanted to play
well for my team. I didnt get tight
and I kept swinging through the ball
most of the match.
Her teammates at No. 1 doubles
followed with a win minutes later.
Marie Londono and Maddie
Samuelian picked up a 6-1, 6-4 victo-
ry.
Amelia Tieman and Caroline Kelly
made quick work, 6-0, 6-3, of Rachel
Chen and Jackie Gabovich in their
No. 3 doubles match as it appeared
M-A had a rm grasp of the win.
Both from there, Carlmont made
the Bears sweat out the victory.
Veronika Dvorak picked up a big
point, taking down Erin LaPorte 6-3,
7-6 (7-3) in their No. 2 singles match.
Teresa Dvorak followed that win
with one of her own. It took the sen-
ior three sets, but she took down
Lindsay LaPlante 3-6, 6-4, 6-3.
At that point, there was a lot of rub-
ber-necking going on between Court
2 and Court 7.
Tarilyn Won and Giordano were
locked in a battle in No. 4 singles
while Carlmonts Mary Farmar and
Cassidy Sobey found themselves in a
feisty matchup with Jenna Scandalios
and Sara Vitale.
Back and forth the two matches
went until Giordano put the nishing
touches on her match 6-1, 2-6, 6-1 for
the M-A win.
In the No. 2 doubles, the team from
Carlmont picked up the consolation
point.
They needed to play matches as
though every point in each individual
match was a match in itself,
Sorenson said. And I think Carlmont
stepped up to that level too and thats
why it was so highly contested. There
is no doubt in my mind that both
teams got the best from their players.
We were so pumped, Andrew
said. We have been working on this
match for weeks. Weve been chang-
ing the lineup, weve been practicing
because we really wanted this
match.

M-As Sami Andrew lunges for a return during her win at No. 1 singles.
Youve got to go out there and
pitch your game, Cain said. If
something gets away from me
inside, thats kind of part of the
game. You cant have a fear of doing
that.
The 36-year-old Scutaro was an
unexpected nd for the Giants, bat-
ting .362 with 40 runs and 44 RBIs
in 61 games after being acquired in
late July from the Rockies for a
minor league inelder. Hes batting
.250 with three RBIs in the playoffs,
but has stepped it up in the NLCS,
going 4 for 8 with two RBIs.
Hes driven in a lot of two-out
runs and gotten rallies going for us
as well, Cain said. Hes been real-
ly, really big for us.
Bochy reiterated his opinion that
Holliday had made an illegal slide,
but said he hadnt talked with St.
Louis manager Mike Matheny or
anyone else on the Cardinals.
I dont think there was intent, to
be honest, hurting somebody,
Bochy said. But it was late. Marco
was behind the bag, he really didnt
hit dirt until he got behind the base.
And the second baseman, hes in
a position there where there can be
some damage done, as we saw. He
came out of this plenty good consid-
ering how hard he got hit.
Added Scutaro: I dont know too
much about sliding rules, but I think
it was a little late. I dont think he
was intentionally doing it.
Scutaro came out of Game 2 in the
fth inning because he was having
trouble running, particularly side to
side. He said his leg had gone numb,
too.
Pain in the left knee developed on
Tuesday, and Scutaro said both the
hip and knee were stiff during the
workout. If he cant start, Ryan
Theriot would play second.
St. Louis didnt work out Tuesday
after a late-night return ight to the
Midwest. The exception was a 49-
pitch simulated game by Jake
Westbrook, who is recovering from
a strained right oblique and is hope-
ful of rejoining the staff if St. Louis
makes it to the World Series.
After Game 2, Holliday said he
relayed an apology of sorts to Giants
catcher Busty Posey before his next
at-bat.
I told Buster to tell Marco I wish
I had started my slide a step earlier,
Holliday said. I wanted him to
know I wasnt trying to hurt him.
When a guy has to leave the game, I
feel bad.
Holliday also defended his hard-
nosed approach.
When Im at first and see a
grounder to short, Im just trying to
make sure they cant turn the double
play, Holliday said. He was right
on second base. I hope hes OK.
Hes a good guy.

NATION/WORLD 17

WASHINGTON Secretary of
State Hillary Rodham Clintons pre-
election bid to shoulder blame over
the deadly terror attack in Libya
failed to silence GOP criticism that
President Barack Obama is not pro-
tecting U.S. diplomats overseas.
Her written statement was sure to
re-emerge as a prominent issue in
Tuesdays second debate between
Obama and GOP challenger Mitt
Romney, and could have long-term
ramications given the persistent
speculation that Clinton might run
for president in four years time or
stay in public life. And it prompted
the Obama campaign to say the
president joined Clinton in accept-
ing responsibility.
Every time an American dies
abroad, everybody takes responsibili-
ty, from the top down, said
Stephanie Cutter, Obamas deputy
campaign manager. Asked in an
interview whether that included
Obama, she said: Absolutely. ... Hes
the president of the United States.
In her statement, Clinton accepted
responsibility for the safety of the
State Departments staff and diplo-
matic missions. It was quickly
brushed aside by leading
Republicans.
By becoming the rst top admin-
istration ofcial to assume blame
for the attack last month on the U.S.
Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, she
sought to take the heat off Obama
for the worst debacle at a U.S.
embassy or consulate overseas in
more than a decade. Four
Americans, including the U.S.
ambassador to Libya, were killed in
the Benghazi attack.
Clinton takes Benghazi responsibility Egypts top court
criticizes draft constitution
CAIRO Egypts highest court
lashed out Tuesday at an Islamist-
led panel tasked with writing the
countrys new constitution, saying
that some provisions proposed for
the text undercut the courts man-
date and keep it under the presi-
dents power.
The work and the composition
of the 100-member constitutional
assembly has been the subject of a
erce debate in Egypt, and the coun-
try is still haggling over disputed
articles in the charter, some of which
will determine the role of religion in
the nations affairs and the inde-
pendence of the judiciary.
Supporters of the panel drafting
the constitution say it was set up by
an elected parliament and broadly
represents Egypts political factions.
Picasso, Monets
stolen in Dutch heist
AMSTERDAM Thieves broke
into a Rotterdam museum on
Tuesday and walked off with works
from the likes of Picasso, Monet,
Gauguin and Matisse potentially
worth hundreds of millions.
Police havent said how they
pulled off the early hours heist, but
an expert who tracks stolen art said
the robbers clearly knew what they
were after.
Those thieves got one hell of a
haul, said Chris Marinello, who
directs the Art Loss Register.
The heist at the Kunsthal museum
is one of the largest in years in the
Netherlands, and is a stunning blow
for the private Triton Foundation
collection, which was being exhibit-
ed publicly as a group for the rst
time.

WASHINGTON The White
House, under political pressure to
respond forcefully to the Sept. 11
attack on the U.S. Consulate in
Benghazi, is readying strike forces
and drones but rst has to nd a tar-
get.
And if the administration does
nd a target, ofcials say it still has
to weigh whether the short-term
payoff of exacting retribution on al-
Qaida is worth the risk that such
strikes could elevate the groups
prole in the region, alienate gov-
ernments the U.S. needs to ght the
group in the future and do little to
slow the growing terror threat in
North Africa.
Details on the administrations
position and on its search for a pos-
sible target were provided by three
current and one former administra-
tion ofcial, as well as an analyst
who was approached by the White
House for help. All four spoke on
condition of anonymity because
they were not authorized to discuss
the high-level debates publicly.
In another effort to bolster Libyan
security, the Pentagon and State
Department have been developing a
plan to train and equip a special
operations force in Libya, accord-
ing to a senior defense ofcial.

BEIRUT The Syrian military
unleashed heavy airstrikes and
artillery bombardments targeting
rebel strongholds in the north on
Tuesday, killing at least 90 people
according to activists.
The barrage came as the U.N. food
agency warned that more and more
Syrians are depending on assistance
from the World Food Program to stay
alive with the civil war worsening.
The airstrikes hit northern Idlib
and Aleppo provinces, both border-
ing Turkey. Activists described them
as some of the worst since rebels
ghting to topple President Bashar
Assad took over the key city of
Maaret al-Numan in Idlib on Oct. 10.
The city lies along the main highway
connecting Aleppo with the cities to
the south, including Homs and the
capital Damascus.
Assads regime has increasingly
relied on warplanes in its struggle to
crush rebels who have taken over
large swathes of territory in the
north.
Rami Abdul-Rahman, who heads
the Britain-based activist group
Syrian Observatory for Human
Rights, said the airstrikes were con-
centrated and intensive and the
worst in weeks. He said warplanes
carried out 12 raids in the area of
Maaret al-Numan in one hour.

SOLOMONS, Md. So youve
embraced the concept of terroir, the
notion that the land inuences the char-
acter of the foods and wines produced on
it. But are you ready for mer-roir?
A fast-growing cadre of Chesapeake
Bay oyster farmers are banking on it.
The Chesapeake has long been known
for its oysters, though primarily for its
dwindling wild population. But water-
men now are being encouraged to farm
oysters along its banks instead of har-
vesting them wild. And producers in
Maryland already are jockeying for
bragging rights about whose section pro-
duces the tastiest oysters.
Hollywood Oyster, Snow Hill and
Parrot Island are among the names
tempting buyers, with growers touting
the distinct avors imparted on their
shellsh by the waters of their particular
river, creek or bight. Choptank Sweet for
example, grown in that rivers slightly
brackish waters, claim a creamy mild-
ness. York River oysters, grown closer to
the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay, are
salty-sweet.
Maryland ofcials overseeing the leas-
ing of the waterways are eager to follow
the example set in Virginia, which last
year sold more than 23 million farmed
oysters, up from fewer than 1 million in
2005.
Travis Croxton, 37, began oyster farm-
ing a decade ago on Virginias
Rappahannock River along with his
cousin on bay acreage rst leased by
their grandfather. Since then, they have
opened an oyster-tasting restaurant
named appropriately enough
Merroir.
Every bend of the tributaries in the
bay can yield a different avor, a differ-
ent characteristic, Croxton said, adding
that their sweet and buttery
Rappahannocks are grown further upriv-
er than most other farmed oysters and
that kind of gives them a mineral taste.
And then we contrast it with our Olde
Salts from the Chincoteague, which are
super salty right off the ocean, and
theres a huge middle ground in between
those two spectrums, Croxton said.
Virginia has been leasing bay bottom
to watermen for decades, but the farming
methods recently have become more
sophisticated. And that has changed both
the nature and perception of the industry.
Previously, hatchery grown oysters
were planted on the bottom of the bay,
then dredged up much as wild oysters
would be. It was a high-volume, low-
margin business known for producing
oysters destined mainly for cans, not to
be served on the half-shell in restaurants.
Today, the process is far more con-
trolled. Oysters are grown individually
in trays or cages placed in the water, giv-
ing producers greater control over how
the oysters shells form. Some producers
keep their trays in one place; others
move them around, even bringing them
closer to the ocean to impart a saltier
taste. Others even move them to tanks as
they mature so specic salts can be
added to get particular avor proles.
When he began growing oysters,
Croxton said most higher-end restau-
rants served farm-grown oysters from
New England and the Northwest.
We had to beat down the doors just to
get them to try the product and forget
about what they thought the bay oyster
was because at the time it was a wild,
muddy mess, Croxton said.
Thomas J. Murray, a seafood econo-
mist at the Virginia Institute of Marine
Science, said the state now easily has 50
aquaculture operations with more enter-
ing the market yearly. And thanks to
the newer farming techniques most of
them are producing for the higher-priced
half-shell market.
Theres a lot of branding going on,
Murray said.
In Maryland, Tal Petty is one of the
new entrants to aquaculture, raising
about 2 million oysters at his Hollywood
Oyster Co. Petty tumbles the oysters as
they grow to chip the edges, a process he
says makes their cups deeper and the
Savor the nuances of a farmed oyster

oysters plumper. He also pumps water over
smaller oysters in containers on his dock to
speed their growth before separating them into
larger and larger trays on the bottom of the
river.
For consumers, the increasing options are a
guilt-free way to enjoy oysters.
Tom Pickerell, senior science manager at
Seafood Watch, a program at the Monterey
Bay Aquarium that provides recommenda-
tions on seafood consumption, said farmed
oysters are a best choice because they gener-
ally improve coastal water conditions.
Anamarija Frankic, director of the Green
Harbor Project and professor at the University
of Massachusetts Boston, said that oysters and
mussels have been farmed since ancient Greek
times. Shellsh aquaculture contributes the
environment if done sustainably, but not as
much as their wild shellfish counterparts.
Thats because wild oysters form complex reefs
that provide habitat for other species, increas-
ing biodiversity and protecting coastal areas.
Murray said growers are continually enter-
ing the market and Petty and Croxton think
theres room for more.
Thats the beauty of oysters, Petty said.
Its somewhat akin to wine because you have
the taste of the water, and so it is a boutique
market.

NEW YORK Wendys pigtails are getting
a tweak.
For the rst time since 1983, the Dublin,
Ohio-based fast food company is updating its
logo in a move intended to signal its ongoing
transformation into a higher-end hamburger
chain.
Instead of the boxy, old-fashioned lettering
against a red-and-yellow backdrop, the pared
down new look features the chains name in a
casual red font against a clean white backdrop.
An image of the smiling, cartoon girl in red pig-
tails oats above though this girl looks more
vivid and not quite as childlike.
In an interview with the Associated Press,
CEO Emil Brolick said the current logo had
served the company well for the past three
decades, but that it was time for an update. Still,
Brolick said he was encouraged by consumer
feedback in testing dozens of new logo varia-
tions over the past several months.
When we pushed things too far, they very
much reeled us back, he said, noting that it
showed just how attached people are to the
brand.
Its only the fth logo update since founder
Dave Thomas opened the rst Wendys in 1969,
and perhaps the most signicant. The makeover
comes as the chain known for its square burgers
and chocolate Frosty shakes struggles to rede-
ne itself in the face of intensifying competition
from the likes of Panera Bread Co. and Chipotle
Mexican Grill Inc., which are seen as a step up
from traditional fast food.
Wendys push has intensied since Brolick
came on as CEO about a year ago. In addition
to raising perceptions about its food, Brolick is
focusing on renovating outdated restaurants
with a look that features natural lighting, at-
screen TVs and a variety of seating options,
including cushy chairs in nooks.
The idea is to create a more inviting atmos-
phere where consumers feel they can relax.
Starting in March, Wendys says the updated
logo will start appearing on newly built and ren-
ovated restaurants.
Its still far from clear whether Wendys
broader reinvention will succeed. But sales at
its restaurants open at least a year have edged
up for the last ve quarters. Craig Bahner, the
companys chief marketing ofcer, notes that
all brands need to evolve.
Its a tangible signal of change, Bahner
said.
The Wendys name and original logo were
inspired by founder Dave Thomas daughter,
whose real name is Melinda Lou (her siblings
couldnt pronounce her name when they were
younger, so they called her Wenda, which
turned into Wendy).
Thomas thought the name conjured the
image of the wholesome hamburger restaurant
he dreamed of opening.
In his book Daves Way, Thomas recalls
how the family dressed up Wendy, then 8 years
old, in a blue-and-white striped dress for the
opening of the rst location. To make her pig-
tails stick out, they put pipe cleaners in her hair.
Thats roughly the image of the little freckle-
faced girl in the logo.
In undertaking the redesign, the company
realized there were three key elements that had
to be preserved; the image of the little girl, the
color red and the way the Wendys font
swerves up what executives call the wave.
In the new logo, Bahner notes that Wendys
pigtails peek out from the oval frame, bringing
her forward and making her more dynamic. The
logo will be part of the new restaurant design
that Wendys is looking to expand to its rough-
ly 6,000 locations in North America.
Wendys pigtails get first touch-upsince 1983
Immigration prompted yet another clash,
Romney saying Obama had failed to pursue
the comprehensive legislation he promised at
the dawn of his administration, and the presi-
dent saying Republican obstinacy made a deal
impossible.
Romney gave as good as he got.
Youll get your chance in a moment. Im
still speaking, the former Massachusetts gov-
ernor said at one point while Obama was mid-
sentence, drawing a gasp from the audience.
He said the presidents policies had failed to
jumpstart the economy and had cramped ener-
gy production.
The open-stage format left the two men free
to stroll freely across a red-carpeted stage, and
they did. Their clashes crackled with energy
and tension, and the crowd watched raptly as
the two sparred while struggling to appear
calm and affable before a national television
audience.
While most of the debate was focused on
policy differences, there was one more-per-
sonal moment, when Obama said Romney
had investments in China.
Mr. President, have you looked at your
pension? Romney interrupted.
You know, I dont look at my pension. Its
not as big as yours, shot back Obama to his
wealthier rival.
Obama noted Romneys business back-
ground to rebut his opponents plans to x the
economy and prevent federal decits from
climbing ever higher.
Now, Gov. Romney was a very successful
investor. If somebody came to you, Governor,
with a plan that said, here, I want to spend $7
or $8 trillion, and then were going to pay for
it, but we cant tell you until maybe after the
election how were going to do it, you would-
nt take such a sketchy deal and neither should
you, the American people, because the math
doesnt add up.
Countered Romney, a few minutes later, It
does add up.
Under the format agreed to in advance,
members of an audience of 82 uncommitted
voters posed questions to the president and his
challenger.
Nearly all of them concerned domestic pol-
icy until one raised the subject of the recent
death of the U.S. ambassador to Libya in a ter-
rorist attack at an American post in Benghazi.
Romney said it took Obama a long time to
admit the episode had been a terrorist attack,
but Obama said he had said so the day after in
an appearance in the Rose Garden outside the
White House.
When moderator Candy Crowley of CNN
said the president had in fact done so, Obama,
prompted, Say that a little louder, Candy.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has taken
responsibility for the death of Ambassador L.
Christopher Stevens and three other
Americans, but Obama said bluntly, Im the
president, and Im always responsible.
Romney said it was troubling that Obama
continued with a campaign event in Las Vegas
on the day after the attack in Libya, an event
the Republican said had symbolic signi-
cance and perhaps even material signifi-
cance.
Obama seemed to bristle. He said it was
offensive for anyone to allege that he or any-
one in his administration had used the incident
for political purposes. Thats not what I do.
According to the transcript, Obama said on
Sept. 12, No acts of terror will ever shake the
resolve of this great nation, alter that charac-
ter or eclipse the light of the values that we
stand for.
One intense exchange focused on compet-
ing claims about whether energy production is
increasing or slowing. Obama accused
Romney of misrepresenting what has hap-
pened a theme he returned to time and
again. Romney strode across the stage to con-
front Obama face to face, just feet from the
audience.
Both men pledged a better economic future
to a young man who asked the rst question, a
member of a pre-selected audience of 82
uncommitted voters.
Then the presidents determination to show
a more aggressive side became evident.
Thats been his philosophy in the private
sector, Obama said of his rival. Thats been
his philosophy as governor. Thats been his
philosophy as a presidential candidate. You
can make a lot of money and pay lower tax
rates than somebody who makes a lot less.
You can ship jobs overseas and get tax
breaks for it. You can invest in a company,
bankrupt it, lay off the workers, strip away
their pensions and you still make money.
Thats exactly the philosophy that weve seen
in place for the last decade, the president said
in a scorching summation.
Unable to respond at length because of the
debates rules, Romney said the accusations
were way off the mark.
But moments later, he reminded the nation-
al television audience of the nations painful-
ly slow recovery from the worst recession in
decades.
There are 23 million people struggling to
nd a job. ... The presidents policies have
been exercised over the last four years and
they havent put America back to work, he
said. We have fewer people working today
than when he took ofce.
Economic growth has been slow throughout
Obamas term in ofce, and unemployment
only recently dipped below 8 percent for the
rst time since he moved into the White
House. Romney noted that if out-of-work
Americans who no longer look for jobs were
counted, the unemployment rate would be
10.7 percent.
Both men had rehearsed extensively for the
encounter, a turnabout for Obama.
I had a bad night, the president conceded,
days after he and Romney shared a stage for
the rst time, in Denver. His aides made it
known he didnt intend to be as deferential to
his challenger this time, and the presidential
party decamped for a resort in Williamsburg,
Va., for rehearsals that consumed the better
part of three days.
Romney rehearsed in Massachusetts and
again after arriving on Long Island on debate
day, with less to make up for.
Asked Tuesday night by one member of the
audience how he would differ from former
President George W. Bush, the last
Republican to hold the ofce, Romney said,
We are different people and these are differ-
ent times.
He said he would attempt to balance the
budget, something Bush was unsuccessful in
doing, get tougher on China and work more
aggressively to expand trade.

In addition to our dinner menu, we offer . . .
By Sara Moulton
I discovered the inspiration for
this recipe ages ago in an issue of
the Australian edition of Vogue, a
magazine I tried to hunt down as
often as possible because it had a
consistently innovative food sec-
tion. Though my Jell-O years
already were well behind me, I was
struck by the cleverness of this
recipe, particularly as a healthy
snack for kids, and even more par-
ticularly at Halloween.
It couldnt be much simpler: two
ingredients, no added sugar. You
combine fresh orange juice with
unavored gelatin, then chill the
mixture in the empty orange shells.
Once the shells are cut up, the indi-
vidual wedges are ringers for actual
orange slices, except that they jiggle
in a slightly spooky, Halloween-ish
way. (Theres nothing spooky about
the way they taste.)
Virtually any member of the
orange citrus family is a likely can-
didate for jiggly wedge-dom at
Halloween: clementines, tangerines
and tangelos. And the aptly-named
blood orange, of course, is tailor-
made for the job.
If youre moved to stray from the
recipe, one proportion should not
change you will need one pack-
age of gelatin for every 1 3/4 cups of
strained fruit juice.
Ive also included an adult varia-
tion on this recipe the addition of
vodka. If using, be certain to meas-
ure it out carefully. More than the
suggested 1 1/2 ounces of vodka
and the gelatin wont set up.
Finally, dont save these for
Halloween. Minus the vodka, this is
a perfectly kid-friendly after-school
snack any day of the year.
JIGGLY ORANGE WEDGES
Time: 4 hours 20 minutes (20
minutes active)
Servings: 6
3 navel oranges
2 juice oranges (such as Valencia)
1 envelope unavored gelatin
1 1/2 ounces vodka (optional)
Cut all 5 oranges in half cross-
wise, then carefully juice them. Do
not crush the skins of the navel
oranges. Strain the juice through a
mesh colander, then measure out 1
3/4 cups.
Carefully scrape out and discard
the pulp from the navel orange
halves to form 6 half shells. Set
aside.
In a small saucepan, combine 1/4
cup of the juice with the gelatin. Set
aside for 5 minutes to let the gelatin
dissolve. Heat the mixture over low
heat, stirring occasionally, until the
gelatin is dissolved and the mixture
is clear, 3 to 4 minutes. Whisk in the
remaining juice and the vodka, if
using. Transfer the liquid to a meas-
uring cup or small pitcher to make it
easy to pour.
Arrange the orange shells, cut
side up, in mufn tins or ramekins
(to keep them upright). Divide the
mixture between the shells, lling
them halfway. Set the mufn tin in
the refrigerator, then nish lling
the oranges. Depending on the size
of your oranges, you may only be
able to ll 5 shells.
Cover the lled shells with plastic
wrap and chill until rm, at least 4
hours and preferably overnight. Cut
each half into 3 wedges before serv-
ing.
Jiggly treats fit for Halloween
By J.M. Hirsch
NEW YORK Its comeuppance
time for Anthony Bourdain. And by
his tally, he deserves his lickings.
Bourdain may have earned his culi-
nary fame eating his way around the
globe, but he built his bad boy per-
sona in part with searing assessments
of fellow celebrity chefs.
And on Thursday evening, they
shot back during a raunch-laden com-
edy roast of Bourdain held at the start
of the New York City Wine and Food
Festival.
I gured I would actually have the
easiest time of anyone, said Food
Network star and longtime victim
of Bourdains verbal lashings
Rachael Ray. I dont have to write
jokes. I dont have to write insults. If
you ask the man of the hour in the hot
seat, my mere existence is clearly
insult enough.
Bourdain shot to culinary fame
with his 2000 memoir, Kitchen
Condential, a brash and blunt
account of his early and drug-
soaked days in the food world.
The book led to a Food Network
show of his own, but before long he
turned his razor wit on the celebrity
food industry, taking particular aim at
non-chef food celebrities such as Ray.
Ted Allen, host of Food Networks
Chopped, called him an ex-chef,
ex-junkie whos made a fortune
insulting his ex-industry.
Before the start of the festivities
or perhaps hostilities Bourdain
reected on his history of tirades
against Ray, Paula Deen, Guy Fieri
and other food television stars.
Ive always felt that if youre a
public gure and Im making fun of
you and your work on television, at
all times it is perfectly appropriate for
you to give it back to me, he said
Well, weve set an ofcial appoint-
ment for that.
Fieri, who pushed a wig of spiked
white hair similar to his own onto
Bourdains head during his presenta-
tion, suggested this was a big night
for his rival.
Youre not used to having a large
group of people actually pay attention
to your work, he said.
Comedian Bonnie McFarlane
poked fun at the tell-all nature of
Bourdains book, saying he clearly
didnt understand what condential
meant.

horizo is a bit like pornogra-
phy. Youll know it when you
see it, but its a bit hard to
dene in the abstract.
Thats because there are several hun-
dred varieties of this sausage made
across at least three continents, and
many bear little resemblance to the oth-
ers. Making matters worse, chorizo
makers in the U.S. are a pretty free-
wheeling bunch. No matter what the
packages say, it can be hard to know
what youre getting.
The good news is that you dont need
to sift through all that to understand
why this meat is well worth working
into your dinner repertoire.
At its most basic, chorizo is a sausage
made from chopped or ground pork and
a ton of seasonings, often including
garlic. The avors are deeply smoky
and savory, with varying degrees of
heat. Most are assertive and peppery,
but not truly spicy.
The three main producers of chorizo
are Spain, Portugal and Mexico.
Spanish and Portuguese chorizo (the
latter known as chourico) are most
common in the U.S., but for many of
the products sold here thats a distinc-
tion without a difference. In Spain,
chorizo has a distinct red color thanks
to ample seasoning with paprika. It is
available in two main varieties cook-
ing and cured.
Cooking chorizo is coarse, crumbly,
deliciously fatty, and jammed with
spices (which vary by region). The
meat can be smoked or plain. To use
cooking chorizo, the casing must be
removed. The meat then is crumbled
and added to other meats or soups, or
sauteed.
Cured chorizo is similarly seasoned
including the paprika but is cured
for at least two months. During this
period, bacteria and salt work their a-
vor magic on the meat. The result is a
salami-like sausage with big, bold, pep-
pery avor. Cured chorizo traditionally
is thinly sliced and eaten at room tem-
perature. It also
can be nely
chopped and
cooked. Most
chorizo sold in the
U.S. is the cured
style.
Portuguese
chourico adds
wine to the avor-
ing mix, and often
is smoked. Most
varieties can be
thinly sliced and
eaten as is, though it also can be
cooked.
Mexican chorizo is made from fresh
(not smoked) pork, and generally sports
the seasonings we associate with
Mexican cuisine, including chilies and
cilantro.
While there are some cured varieties
of Mexican chorizo, most should be cut
open (discarding the casing), crumbled
and cooked. Use the meat in just about
any Mexican dish calling for meat (and
big, big avor), including nachos.

of chorizo, check out the Off the Beaten
Aisle column over on Food Network:

ROASTED CHICKEN WITH
CHORIZO AND ROOT VEGGIES
Sometimes its best to not overthink
things. As in this basic roasted chicken,
my take on a simple French classic. I
love that everything is just tossed into a
pot, put in the oven and ignored until
done. The recipe calls for a cast-iron
Dutch oven. These really are indispen-
sable for making all manner of roasts
and stews. And they are as happy on the
burner as in the oven (where, when cov-
ered, their heavy lids seal in moisture).
Start to nish: 1 hour (15 minutes
active)
Servings: 6
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3- to 4-pound whole chicken
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound cooking chorizo, casing
removed and discarded, meat nely
chopped
4 sprigs fresh thyme
3 sprigs (each about 4 inches long)
fresh rosemary
1 medium yellow onion, quartered
12-ounce bag baby carrots
1 pound new potatoes
1 lemon, quartered
6 cloves garlic, peeled but left whole
Ground black pepper, to taste
Heat the oven to 350 F.
Combine the salt and garlic powder,
then rub the mixture over and under the
skin of the chicken. Set aside.
In a 5 1/2-quart (or larger) Dutch
oven over medium-high, heat the oil.
Add the chicken and sear for 5 minutes
per side. Transfer the chicken to a
plate.
Add the chorizo to the pan, then
saute for 4 minutes. Add the thyme and
rosemary. Heat for 30 seconds.
Return the chicken to the pan, breast
up. Arrange the onion, carrots, pota-
toes, lemon and garlic around the
chicken, then place the lid on the pot.
Transfer to the oven and roast for 45
minutes, or until the breast reads 160 F
on an instant thermometer. Transfer the
chicken to a platter and tent with foil.
Use a slotted spoon to transfer the
vegetables and chorizo to a serving
bowl. Cover to keep warm. Discard the
lemon quarters and any herb stems.
Place the pot over medium heat and
bring to a boil. Cook until reduced and
thickened, about 3 to 4 minutes. Adjust
seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve
the sauce drizzled over the chicken.

after hearing more details on the project, Godbe
said.
The poll also showed that, no matter the mit-
igation, the trafc impacts the project will have
on the surrounding neighborhood and Ralston
Avenue are seen as a negative, Godbe said.
The proximity of the proposed new middle
school to Ralston Middle School is also seen as
a negative, Godbe said.
The nancial impacts to the Belmont-
Redwood Shores School District is also seen as
a negative, he said.
Some on the council, however, told the Daily
Journal they have received numerous com-
plaints on how the poll was conducted.
Several people have complained to me that
the poll was not performed in a non-biased man-
ner. I dont have any rst-hand experience as to
the accuracy of that or not, Mayor Dave
Warden wrote the Daily Journal in an email.
I also think there are zoning issues and gen-
eral plan issues that transcend the publics
acceptance of the plan based on the few facts
that were presented in the poll, Warden wrote
in the email.
The poll would be taken more seriously if it
was conducted by the city, said Councilwoman
Coralin Feierbach, who has already indicated
she is not in support of the private schools pro-
posed expansion.
The school wants to purchase a vacant ofce
building on 6-8 and 10 Davis Drive, demolish it
and build a new school campus with a turfed
athletic eld and one day a pool.
The project has the full support of the
Belmont Chamber of Commerce but it did not
pass muster with the citys Planning
Commission, however, so the school decided to
offer the city even more benets in a develop-
ment deal, including a one-time $1 million pay-
ment and a $250,000 annual payment to the city.
CSUS, based in Hillsborough, is a nonprot
agency exempt from paying property taxes.
The schools public relations campaign,
Feierbach said, has left a sour taste in her
mouth.
I have never seen an applicant do PR work,
she said. All the publicity has been very divi-
sive.
At this point, she said, there is not an awful
lot that would change my mind.
There are more pressing issues facing the city,
she said, such as downtown development. While
Feierbach has made it clear she does not support
the project, she told the Daily Journal I have no
idea how the vote will go.
Councilman Warren Lieberman, however,
said the vote will go one of two ways, either the
council will reject the proposal outright at its
Oct. 23 meeting or move instead to negotiate
more with the school on a fair deal for both
parties.
He also said that while a majority of Belmont
residents might support CSUSs plan, the
minority viewpoint must also be protected.
Godbes poll, Lieberman said, will be one of
many pieces of information I will use to make
my decision.
Crystal Springs Uplands is a private school
which currently has a 10-acre suburban campus
in Hillsborough serving 350 students in sixth
through 12th grades. The school is hoping to
expand by opening a middle school serving up
to 240 students in sixth through eighth grades
on Davis Drive.
The Belmont City Council meets Tuesday,

POLL
2008. One gimmick is the so-called Repo 105
transactions, which are repurchase agreements
that allow short-term loans to appear as sales.
A judge last year made a similar ruling
regarding the class action lawsuit against
Lehman but this is the rst such ruling on
behalf of individual investors, said attorney
Matt Edling of Cotchett, Pitre & McCarthy
who represents San Mateo and Monterey
counties, the cities of Burbank, Ventura and
Auburn, the Contra Costa Water District,
Vallejo Sanitation and Flood Control District
and Zenith Insurance Company.
The plaintiffs in this case are the only ones
in the country that argued Lehman was up to
its shenanigans far before what everyone
assumed they were, Edlin said.
San Mateo County has led the legal charge
against Lehman, ling the rst suit aimed
directly at individuals rather than seeking
compensation through bankruptcy proceed-
ings.
The San Mateo County investment pool lost
approximately $155 million in its 1,050 dif-
ferent accounts for cities, agencies, special
districts and school districts.
U.S. Rep. Jackie Speier, D-San Mateo, who
has pushed the U.S. Treasury and federal gov-
ernment to act commended the ruling but
called shocking the last four years without
anyone at Lehman being held accountable.
In April 2010, Speier also questioned Fuld
at the House Financial Services Committee
hearing about the estate transfer and said in a
prepared statement yesterday she was particu-
larly gratied the judge is letting stand the
claims of fraudulent conveyance.
His claim that the transfer was not intend-
ed to shield his assets immediately following
Lehmans collapse was not just frivolous, it
was ludicrous, Speier said.
The plaintiffs like San Mateo County have
been waiting for this ruling because it acti-
vates the litigation, said County Counsel John
Beiers, adding that county ofcials are com-
mitted to seeing Lehman executives and audi-
tors held responsible.
Our concern is that we have Lehman of-
cers and directors receiving millions in com-
pensation and bonuses at the same time they
knew their ship was sinking, he said.
Aside from giving the case a strong push,
Edling said this weeks opinion on the indi-
vidual claims may serve as a gauge for all
other claims from Lehmans downfall.
LEHMAN
two additional islands and recongure parking
from 745 to 747 spaces by converting some
oversized stalls at the 2300 Middleeld Road
location. The business said the change will
decrease lines and idling times while improv-
ing trafc and the customer experience.
But Commissioner Janet Borgens was not
sold on the idea.
I am not convinced selling gas is a Costco
experience, she said.
Borgens, like many on the commission,
were troubled by the existing trafc at the
location and the possibility more pumps may
draw more motorists. Planning Manager
Blake Lyon said there is no silver bullet to
fixing the intersection of Woodside and
Middleeld roads and problems should not be
placed on the shoulders of only one property
or business.
However, some commissioners said it was
still not comfortable with full expansion to 20
pumps.
Commissioner Shawn White was a most
vocal proponent in large part for the potential
environmental benet of reducing idling time.
I would favor anything we could do to
reduce queuing time, White said.
The adopted compromise size is what the
company suggested in spring 2005 when it
proposed a plan to demolish the existing ware-
house to build a larger store, tire sales/instal-
lation center and parking lot.
In June 2007, after environmental impact
reports on two possibilities identied signi-
cant although mitigated impacts, the Planning
Commission certied the 16-pump option.
However, the citys zoning administrator
approved the second smaller option with 12
pumps.
The Redwood Village Neighborhood
Association, which appealed the decision,
questioned the citys review process, the envi-
ronmental process and social justice. The
group claimed the EIR underestimated the
number of trips the store would generate,
bringing with it pollution, noise and an
increase of cars cutting through their residen-
tial community.
However, that August, the City Council
upheld the plan and the 160,000-square-foot
store and 12-pump station opened in 2009. A
court also favored the city when the oppo-
nents challenged the adequacy of the EIR in
court.
COSTCO
WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 17, 2012
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- It doesnt help to worry
about how your colleagues are going to handle a
specifc situation -- you need to fnd out. Ask them
about their past experience with similar situations.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- An arrangement that
could be of beneft to you fnancially should not be
treated with indifference. Theres a good chance that
the rewards within your reach could slip away.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- If you get careless
about researching the experience of an individual
who is scheduled to do a job for you, you could end
up getting a rookie.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Usually youre
pretty smart about when to keep things secret, but
you might freely discuss something you shouldnt
with those who are deliberately probing you for
information.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Because your resis-
tance to splurging tends to be rather low at present,
it might be best to steer clear of stores that offer all
kinds of unique items. Once inside, you might go wild.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- When something is
really important, you can be a tenacious person who
sticks to the course until your objective is achieved. To-
day, however, these enviable qualities might be missing.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- It behooves you not
to act on impulse when it comes to your fnancial
or business affairs. Be sure that what sounds good
upon frst hearing is able to stand the test of time.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Youve heard the old
bromide Haste makes waste. That could apply to
you if you try to take shortcuts in your work. Take
your time and do things right.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Theres a good chance
that a purveyor of bad advice could pressure you into
making an unwise decision. Keep your own counsel
as much as possible.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Try to be tolerant
of somebody who doesnt seem to grasp ideas or
concepts as quickly as most people. In reality, it
might be due to the way you convey the information
to him or her.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- It would be best not to bor-
row any special equipment that youve never used
before. You could get yourself in a heap of trouble
real fast by destroying both your project and the tool.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- If you are ill-equipped
and unfamiliar about a big-ticket item that you want
to buy, take more time to learn all you can about it.
Dont rush in where bill collectors are apt to tread.

WORLD 31
By Martin Benedyk

BIRMINGHAM, England A
teenage Pakistani girl shot in the
head by the Taliban for promoting
girls education has responded well
to treatment and impressed doctors
with her strength, the British hospi-
tal where she was being treated said
Tuesday.
Experts are optimistic that 14-
year-old Malala Yousufzai, who was
airlifted Monday to Britain to
receive specialized medical care,
has a good chance of recovery
because unlike adults, the brains of
teenagers are still growing and can
adapt to trauma better.
Her response to treatment so far
indicated that she could make a
good recovery from her injuries,
the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in
central Englands Birmingham said
in a statement.
Despite the early optimism, the
full extent of Malalas brain injuries
has not been made public and out-
side experts cautioned it is extreme-
ly unlikely that a full recovery of all
her brains functions can be made.
Instead, they could only hope that
the bullet took a lucky path
going through a more silent, or
less active part of the brain.
You dont have a bullet go
through your brain and have a full
recovery, said Dr. Jonathan Fellus,
chief scientic ofcer at the New
Jersey-based International Brain
Research Foundation.
Malala was returning home from
school in Pakistan last week when
she was targeted by the Taliban for
promoting girls education and crit-
icizing the militant groups behavior
when they took over the scenic Swat
Valley where she lived. Two of her
classmates were also wounded in
the attack and are receiving treat-
ment in Pakistan.
She arrived Monday in Britain,
where she can be protected from
follow-up attacks threatened by the
militants. The Taliban have threat-
ened to target Malala again because
she promotes Western thinking.
There was some concern for the
teenagers safety Tuesday when
police stopped and questioned two
people who tried to visit Malala, but
hospital ofcials and police stressed
there was no threat to the girls safe-
ty. The two people, who claimed to
be Malalas relatives, were turned
away.

Cuba eases travel rules
HAVANA For the first time
since the height of the Cold War
more than half a century ago, Cuba
is giving its people the freedom to
leave the country without govern-
ment permission, scrapping the
detested exit visa that kept many
from traveling outside the commu-
nist nation for even a few days.
The announcement Tuesday
came as blockbuster news on the
island, where citizens were ecstatic
at the prospect of being able to
leave for a vacation or even for-
ever with only a passport and a
visa from the country of their desti-
nation.
Wow, how great! said
Mercedes Delgado, a 73-year-old
retiree. Citizens rights are being
restored. ... Lets hope this is a
breakthrough to keep returning the
rights that they have taken away
from us.
