CA Dream Act bill fails in GSC vote

By EDWARD NGAI

Senate unanimously passed legislation voicing support

ASSU and GSC student government representatives remain divided over an undergraduate senate bill expressing support for the California Dream Act. The bill failed to pass the Graduate Student Council (GSC) on Oct. 5 after coasting through the Undergraduate Senate unanimously. The bill, rejected by a majority of the GSC over concerns about illegal immigrants employability, would have authorized ASSU President Michael Cruz 12 to lobby for California Governor Jerry Browns passage of the California Assembly Bill AB 131, otherwise known as the Dream Act. The act, signed into law by Brown on Oct. 8, is part of a legislative package referred to as the California Dream Act, which authorizes illegal immigrant students who meet GPA requirements, graduate from a California high school and enter the U.S. before age 16 to apply for state-funded financial aid. Its extremely important for undocumented students because it allows them more open access to educational opportunities, said Jayashri Srikantiah, professor of law and director of Stanfords Immigrants Rights Clinic.It signals that theres now statewide recognition that undocumented students should have equal access to opportunities, and that the state itself has recognized that need. After a national version of the bill was rejected late last year in Washington, D.C., Californias passage of the controversial measure is a vindication for proponents of access to higher education for undocumented youth. Its going to be critical, Srikantiah said. It

Palo Alto residents will vote in Nov. 8 elections on Measure E, a controversial initiative to un-dedicate 10 acres of land in Byxbee Park. The Palo Alto Weekly supports the measure while the Daily Post opposes it. Community environmentalists remain divided on the issue.

City divided on Measure E

Palo Alto residents to decide fate of Byxbee Park land in Nov. 8 vote
By JORDAN SHAPIRO On Nov. 8, Palo Alto citizens are scheduled to vote on Measure E, the Palo Alto Green Energy and Compost Initiative. Measure E would un-dedicate 10 of 127 acres in Byxbee Park, currently home to the Palo Alto Landfill, which will be closing in 2012. As voters in Palo Alto have started to send in their ballots, the controversial measure has been receiving increased attention from both sides of the debate. Most recently, the Palo Alto Weekly endorsed the measure while the Daily Post wrote in opposition to it. Students for a Sustainable Stanford also endorsed the measure. I think policy-making is very often about compromising and finding middle ground about issues, said Palo Alto Mayor Sid Espinosa.Im a very strong supporter of composting. I think a regional approach does make sense.There are other options that we could consider. Before we even have that conversation, I just have to say on the bottom line that I dont think we should un-dedicate park land, period. Espinosa responded to concerns that the park itself does not have an elaborate plan by emphasizing that it is not supposed to be manicured land, but rather a natural preserve. You have to weigh the fact that once parkland is gone in most communities it doesnt come back, Espinosa continued.

EPA Academy faces critical transition

Charter school still stable amid changes
By JULIA ENTHOVEN East Palo Alto Academy High School, the only remaining branch of Stanford New Schools, has seen relative stability this fall after facing turmoil since spring 2010, when the school board denied the schools request for a five-year charter renewal, instead granting a two-year extension through this year. Stanford New Schools is a nonprofit organization overseen by the Stanford School of Education. Founded in 2005, it strives to incorporate research-based practices through innovative collaboration with Stanford University, as written in its mission statement. East Palo Alto Academy High School (EPAAHS) serves 250 to 300 students in grades 9-12 from East Palo Alto, eastern Menlo Park and Redwood City. Stanford New Schools assumed management four years after the high school opened. According to its website, 85 percent of entering freshmen who do not move away or transfer graduate on time. Of those seniors, 90 percent go on to college. The school is definitely off to a wonderful start this year, going off last year, said EPAAHS principle Yetunde Reeves. Reeves is part of the new leadership team that came in last year after 2010. The turnover included a new principle, vice principle and CEO.

Public service careers draw graduates

The shift to a new leadership team was not the schools only source of instability. After receiving a new charter last year, EPAAHS is currently adjusting to a new dean of the Stanford School

Service route remains popular across fields

By SHELLEY XU Recent Stanford graduates are increasingly interested in pursuing public service opportunities after graduation, according to representatives of the Haas Center for Public Service and the Career Development Center (CDC). Jim Murray, the Haas Center Postgraduate Public Service Program director, thinks that this trend may be correlated with recent changes in the world. I think this generation sees themselves as a part of a much larger global community, Murray said. Youve been exposed to things like global warming, inequities around food distribution, healthcare, educational inequities. Murray added that the definition of public service is broader than one may think. Public service can be working for a nonprofit organization, a philanthropic foundation, a government entity at the local, national or international level, Murray said. It can be working for a for-profit organization that has a public service aspect like social corporate responsibility. Murray cited examples such as for-profit groups that help with making housing for disaster victims, and the Institute of Design at Stanford,or

New contract between city and firefighters

By MELODY WONG After 16 months of negotiations, the Palo Alto City Council unanimously ratified a new contract with city firefighters at last Mondays council meeting. The city council and the International Association of Fire Fighters Local 1319 struggled through tense negotiations and binding-arbitration proceedings over the past year and a half. The groups settled on a three-year contract that would save the city $1.1 million for the current fiscal year and reel in more than $1.4 million annual savings for the future years. This move brings the city a step closer in its attempt to close the $4.3 million gap

The Palo Alto City Council ratified a new contract for city firefighters after 16 months of negotiations. The agreement eliminated the minimum staffing condition of 29 on-duty firefighters in the firehouse at all times.

sends a signal that these students are welcome, part of our communities and ought to be attending California public universities as members of our state. It was a difficult vote, said Manish Choudhary, a second-year engineering graduate student and public relations and communications director for the GSC, where the bill was defeated 2-4.But when you make a law, [illegal aliens] should not get an advantage. This advantage would be over international students, who do not have access to financial aid from public funds. I cant really say much. I was upset, said ASSU Senator and the bills co-author Brianna Pang 13. But they voted, and they have every right to vote. At Stanford, I feel like [the California Dream Act] is more of a symbolic thing, she said. With most Stanford students, they get private financial aid from Stanford anyway.But the passage can also set the tone for the overall national conversation about the national Dream Act. The majority of the GSC, however, cast aside symbolism to examine the Senate bill from a practical angle. People who are here illegally will have access to state funds, and people who are here legally will not have access to the funds that doesnt sound right, Choudhary said. And [students] will not be able to find jobs because they do

in the citys budget passed by the city council in June, without any obvious reductions in services. The new deal, ratified by the firefighters union in September, implemented a structural readjustment of firefighter benefits, including establishing a second pension tier for new employees and requiring employees to contribute to their own pensions and medical premiums. Rather than the city paying its firefighters with shares to the California Public Employees Retirement System (CalPERS), union members will directly start with a 6.5 percent CalPERS member contribution, which will increase to 9 percent the next year. Stanford University pays for a third of the Palo Alto firefighters payroll and a quarter of their costs for fire engines and other capital equipment. One significant change through the new firefighter contract is the elimination of the mandatory minimum staffing condition. This contentious provision mandated that at least 29 on-duty firefighters be present at all times, a costly action for the city. The mandatory staffing requirement prevented the city from managing in an efficient way, said Councilman Larry Klein. The agreement revamped the entire staffing section of the contract, stipulating a bare minimum of at least one fire captain, one fire apparatus operator and one firefighter for each engine, truck and rescue tions and Data Specialist Gabriela Guerrero. There are not as many fights . . . [and] there have been more student activities. I cant compare it to when I wasnt here, Reeves said of her position, going into her second year at the school. I can just talk about what I see since Ive been here [sic]. But I definitely feel like . . . we are strengthening the instructional program, working on the climate [and] preparing kids for college.

I feel like a lot of GSC members didnt necessarily know that much about citizenship and the Dream Act itself. Srikantiah echoed the Undergraduate Senates vote. We have to take a step back here and revisit the . . . issue, which is that the reality of our immigration system is that there are tens of millions of undocumented people tion to junior high beginning in sixth grade, but it will not resume. The decision to terminate the program was associated with the schools classification as persistently low-achieving by the state, largely because of its K-8 test scores. Despite the high schools successes, the school board denied Stanfords five-year charter renewal request for the Academy in 2010. While Stanford New Schools had agreed to gradually terminate its K-12 program, the organization defended the high school and petitioned Sequoia Union High School District for charter renewal. On May 4 this year, the Sequoia

Contact Edward Ngai at edngai@ stanford.edu. Union High School District Board of Trustees unanimously approved the charter petition. The high school has now secured its charter for the 2012-2013 academic year and will have a new location on Myrtle Street in East Palo Alto. It will be a new school, Reeves said of the change. We are really looking at strengthening our early college program. The new school will definitely have more of a focus on [that].

company. Similarly, only two paramedics will be on staff in the fire department. The councils Policy & Services Committee is expected to give a more detailed report in November on more ways to reduce staffing costs and lower fire department staffing levels. Councilman Pat Burt stated that these changes were an important step and necessary measures to take as a city in order for a sustainable future. The deal, discussed extensively by city officials, prevented possible layoffs of police officers and the closing of fire stations, a proposal they have contemplated since May. The new firefighter plan may close the $4.3 million hole with the help of a $2.1 million transfer of funds from the citys budget stabilization reserve. The agreement required the firefighters union to make concessions that most other union and non-unionized labor groups of professionals and managers, including the Service Employees International Union and Local 521, have made over the past two years. Since the downturn of the economy, labor group members have faced tumultuous negotiations over their benefit packages, including accepting second pension tiers and required contributions to medical payments. Initially, the firefighters struggled to reach a compromise with the city council when city officials refused their $3.1 million proposal in late June and declined their offers of mediation in late July. The initial proposal included $3.1 million in concessions that included a four percent wage decrease for firefighters and engineers and a five percent decrease for captains and fire inspectors, as well as a 10 percent contribution to their health insurance premiums and adjustments to the pension formula for new employees. However, the union presented the proposal while the city council contemplated altering the citys procedure for settling labor disputes with public safety workers and management, which under current law is through binding arbitration. This led to the controversial Nov. 8 ballot Measure D, opposed by the firefighter union, to overturn the policy of binding arbitration. Contact Melody Wong at mwong15 @stanford.edu.

Stanford researchers develop super Stanford Federal Credit Union skin upgrades
By THE DAILY NEWS STAFF Stanford researchers have developed a stretchable, skin-like sensor as the latest accomplishment in associate professor of chemical engineering Zhenan Baos quest to create a super skin. The transparent skin-like pressure sensor employs pioneering elastic that can stretch to twice its normal length in any direction and return to its normal length without suffering any deformation. The sensor may have far-reaching applications in the fields of touch-sensitive computer displays, robotics and prosthetic limbs. A large variety of medical applications may also be possible. Darren Lipomi,a postdoctoral researcher, and Benjamin Tee and Michael Vosgueritchian, both graduate students in electrical engineering, are the lead authors of the paper published online by Nature Nanotechnology on Oct. 23. Bao is a coauthor. The sensor can measure pressure on it, ranging from a pinch to the weight of an elephant, according to Lipomi. The device uses a clear film of single-walled carbon nanotubes acting as tiny springs, which protect the sensor from damage when stretched. Researchers created the carbon nanosprings by spraying nanotubes in a liquid suspension onto a thin layer of silicone. Stretching the silicone and returning it to its original shape forms the nanotubes into tiny springs, which can then detect pressure,while limiting damage from future stretching. Researchers pre-stretched the silicone in both perpendicular directions to lend the material the ability to rebound when stretched from any direction. The nanostructures act as electrodes in measuring the force applied to them, made possible by the fact that the stretching to create the springs does not alter the electrical conductivity of the material. The sensor itself consists of three layers of silicone one layer of standard, easily deformed silicone surrounded by two layers of the nanotube-coated silicone. The two nanotube-coated layers sense the change in electrical charge stored in the midBy THE DAILY NEWS STAFF

The Stanford Federal Credit Union (FCU) announced that it upgraded its relational core platform, used to process deposit and transaction accounts, to Open Solutions Inc.s premier core solution DNA. The $1.2-billion, 47,000-member credit union had been using one of Open Solutions older core processing solutions, Wealthview Banking System, since 1999. Stanford FCU said it will run DNA in-house alongside additional solutions, including DNAvoice, DNAmobile, DNAweb, and other document management,business intelligence and marketing software. The best practices that we gain from this upgrade will allow us to better serve our community,become more relevant to the market and help support our growth,allowing us to ultimately take our business to the next level, FCU senior vice president and chief information officer Jim Phillips said in a statement released by Open Solutions. As the first institution to offer online banking, Stanford FCU has a proud history of employing cuttingedge technology to serve its community, Open Solutions Chairman and CEO Louis Hernandez, Jr. said in the same release. Stanford FCU is not only a technology pioneer, but it is also a very well-respected institution. As our client community continues to grow,Stanford FCU has the ability to extend its innovative heritage by collaborating with other banks and credit unions using the DNA platform in limitless new ways.

crash, a bang and a giggle woke Lauren Miller 15 at 6:15 a.m. The dawn light seeped into the dorm room through the blinds as the cacophony in the hallway grew. She heard a flurry of hushed chatter before all went silent. Suddenly, the door roared with pounds and cheers of Stanford students. Sweatshirt, shoes, keys! voices outside thundered. Dazed and confused, Miller creaked the door open.A troop of neon- and spandex-adorned people crowded her doorway. It was so early that I couldnt even comprehend what they could possibly be there for, Miller said. They introduced themselves as the Frosh Council. Miller was its newest addition. Before she could comprehend what had happened, the troop grabbed her and darted to the next dorm. Soon enough, Miller was standing at the door of the next victim, banging and clamoring just as others had at her door. After the Frosh Council completed their dorm-to-dorm frolic, its final task was a sprint to the Quad. Theres something about bonding in the middle of that grand courtyard that you cant get from inside a classroom, Miller said. It means so much more than a congratulatory email. After getting to know her new friends in some icebreaker games, Miller ate breakfast with the rest of the Frosh Council. She appreciated the setting, the people and the early morning bonding. After finishing her breakfast at 8 a.m., Miller made her trip back to her dorm to get ready for an early-morning exam. The communal craziness came to an end. Although every group does it a little differently, the basic concept of rollout is the same: an initiation in which someone is involuntarily taken from his room and compelled to hang out with a new group. Through this initiation process, these roll-

outs help build a strong extracurricular foundation. As Miller conducted her own rollouts, she came to appreciate this early-morning awakening. She was now part of a community of people,a group committed enough to plan and perpetrate this early-morning adventure. As she became familiar with her fellow council members, she said she couldnt help but feel a strong sense of camaraderie. Last years Frosh Council did the rollouts and they got me excited to be a part of such a committed and enthusiastic group of people, Miller said. The upperclassmen raved about their experience in the group, recounting the friends and memories they made, all while climbing up lounge windows and crawling through laundry rooms. Rollouts also serve to secure allegiances. Competing groups that attract the same talented candidates try to roll out individuals before other,similar groups. Gaieties rollouts happened on a Friday while a cappella groups did rollouts the day after, on Saturday, said Annika Grangaard 12, vocal director at Gaieties. This definitely has some impact on where people end up. This tradition has ensued for decades. While back for alumni weekend, Branner alumni from the late 80s discussed how rollouts have changed. In their time, rollouts were rare and reserved for special inaugurations,the alumni agreed.They were conducted,for example, when new members pledged to fraternities and sororities, or when new RAs found out about their positions. On Valentines Day, suited males in the dorm would roll out pajama-clad females.They walked them to a dining hall, which they had decorated beforehand, and enjoyed a romantic breakfast. Apart from the excitement of it all, the origin of rollout remains a mystery. Asking various longstanding campus figures will lead to speculation, sympathy and, sometimes, outright evasion. Maybe their origin is a confidential secret known only to the founders of each group. Maybe no one truly knows how or why rollouts began.In any case,the rollout is a Stanford tradition, a cultural oddity and an expedient bonding opportunity that keeps the Cardinal spirit alive.

Marauders Map?
Theres an app for that
By LANA HO
ll that could be seen was a sea of red at the Orange Bowl last winter.The cheers of attendees drowned out individual voices, and the roar of crowd was all that could be heard. Geoff Woo 11 lost his friend Jonathan Zhang 11 in the mass of people, and it was there that they wished for a device that would let them easily find each other essentially, a virtual Marauders Map. Inspired, Woo, Zhang and their friend Jonathan Chang 11 created Glassmap, a location-tracking iPhone application. The trio had never done any iPhone coding before but were determined to produce a working product. The first week of spring quarter last year,they blocked out time for coding and spent nights at La Maison Francaise to work on what would become Glassmap. In three weeks, they created a very rough, battery-exhausting version of the application. Tracking applications require real-time updates, which drain the cell phones battery, they said.This turned out to be their greatest hurdle in developing the application. Their original app could only do something nave like [send out a signal] once every few minutes, once every five min JONATHAN utes or once every two minutes,Woo said. So they dove back into their work. They wanted to create a novel relay framework that surpassed the efficiency of their competitors. To do that, they programmed the application to intelligently query the location of the user so that the time between signals was based on contextual clues. The modification, which they finished by June, allowed the application to run for hours without wasting power. But they werent done yet.The founders wanted to perfect their application before launching it, so they rented a house in Palo Alto this past summer off of University Avenue.The three co-founders adhered to Contact Lana Ho at lanaho@stanford.edu.

a self-imposed schedule,working up to 16 hours a day and often eating meals at their desks. It was pretty much eat, sleep, gym, code, said Chang. I dont want to make it sound too much like The Social Network, but it was kind of like that, Woo said. Though their summer living arrangement begs a Social Networkcomparison,their partnership does not. They describe their relationship as without hierarchy or titles. For example, summer intern Xavier Falco 12 was allowed the same amount of input as everyone else. There were arguments, but in the end, they defaulted back to their philosophy that the best idea wins, all three co-founders said. Glassmap launched in early October to Stanford students only. Ryan Brown 12 was brought on board to head campus outreach efforts and publicity, like the Glassmap Dorm Storm, which attracted almost 1,000 Glassmap users. Though the co-founders have settled into niches, they have retained their original business model: the best idea wins. The three remain close friends and live in the same apartment complex off campus. They continue to spend upwards of 70 hours per week working on Glassmap,Woo said. Now, Chang mainly handles servers, Zhang works on the iPhone application CHANG 11 and Woo focuses on the integration with Facebook and the Android application. With a simple idea, intense dedication and a lot of coding, the co-founders created an application that they believe has the potential to change communication. When asked how they keep motivated to work on their application, Zhang invoked the philosophy of the late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs,as articulated in his 2005 commencement speech: Stay hungry. Stay foolish.

hether or not we like the numbers, time is exact. It coordinates global markets, unravels histories and guides social schedules. It predicts what people halfway around the globe are doing at any given moment and might be one of the smallest binders of the most people at once. Time keeps us on track with the world, so most of us get on track early on. There is, however, yet another way we read time that is somehow both bigger and entirely personal. This kind of time is less quantifiable, more fleeting and highly subjective.We can feel it before we ever hear an audible alarm or chime.Actually, it has nothing to do with hours or minutes,but we feel it moving inexorably between us and the people around us. Like a form of physical distance, it can tell us precisely where we are. Perhaps more than change, the most powerful thing time can do is provide at least a moment of complete clarification. A friend of mine emailed me in response to one of my columns last week, emergency-style: we had to talk now! (If you know me, you know that I love when this happens.) He was recovering from a bad breakup, which had unexpectedly re-launched his religious faith and led to major re-acquainting with previously abandoned relations. To his own surprise, over the span of the week after my column, he found himself tying up numerous loose ends that for years had been drifting about via bad memories and awkward encounters. Yet just recently he had spent hours chatting with long-past friends and even an ex-girlfriend with whom he had once shared a very rocky record. What was happening? Was it simply that time heals? Was it that he and the other parties had changed and could now get along? No it was that, after years of distance from past events, he saw himself with better eyes. He could return to people he had hurt and been hurt by because, suddenly, time was letting him see his past self with better perspective. Our relationships with others depend first on how we relate with ourselves, but over time that latter part changes. Usually, its only ex post facto that we get the privilege of revisiting our past selves and all associated behavior. In the heat of the moment, were locked inside a melange of bias and furiously buzzing emotions. If were lucky, though, internal chatter subsides, and then we get the opportunity though we dont always take it to see ourselves from the outside.

Emotions like these only make sense in the context of time.

With our company, too, times penchant for clarity comes in extremely handy. It spotlights how we feel about someone in the context of how little or how much time has passed. Recall how ecstatic you felt when he/she finally called you (and you hadnt realized how long youd been waiting), how the hours you spent with someone seemed to fly by, how a short time away from someone seemed like forever. Emotions like these only make sense in the context of time. When youve known someone for fewer than two years but it feels timeless, what does that say? When two people can reunite after months of separation and take it effortlessly in stride, what does that say? Our reactions to the passing of time could fill pages on how deeply and/or genuinely we regard someone. Maybe its more automatic for self-reflective people to register those mental notes, and maybe thats why Im putting it out here for the masses. After 21 years of meeting, greeting, mingling with and leaving people, it feels unimaginably wonderful to consciously recognize which relationships I cant imagine ever fading; for now, at least, I can thank them for being so wonderful, too. (And I totally do, even though I guess thats kind of weird or something.) Sometimes only time can tell what things tarnish and what stays real. I believe that truth like that is immeasurably valuable. Have an epiphany, or completely disagree? Either way, Nina would love to hear it.Take a moment to tell her, at ninamc@stanford.edu.

d.school, an offshoot of the Graduate School of Business that uses design to help make extremely affordable products for public service goals. The economy may also influence a students choice to go into public service. When the market is really bad, some of the options that they usually might jump into like the business world arent there, Murray said. Instead, students look to public service opportunities such as AmeriCorps and Teach for America. Some people enjoy working with people, said CDC director Lance Choy. They enjoy helping. Others find it very rewarding to shape policy. Olivia Hu 12 said she wants to work in public service after graduation because of the magnitude of her potential impact. Its so important, she said. Its important because its billions of people. Hu hopes to work in education policy, especially for girls in the Middle East. For Lucia Constantine 10,spending a year in AmeriCorps working at a community garden to help in nutrition and food issues helped her explore her interests. Constantine now works in the Haas Center as the public service leadership and postgraduate programs coordinator. It was an opportunity for me to explore the concepts that I had spent four years learning about in a realworld setting, Constantine said. At the same time, a career in public service can enhance skills. I gained some work experience and some intangible skills that you dont develop in school, Constantine added.

I think it brings a lot more experience and qualifications, especially for business school, [medical] school and law school, because theyre looking for mature candidates. However, many students cite financial concerns as a strong deterrent against a public service career, or at least a worrisome aspect. Financial things are weighing heavily on my mind right now, said Jaclyn Le 12. Le has decided to pursue public service after graduation despite these concerns. The Haas Center provides students with services including a career database, summer fellowships and an alumni-networking service. More than 30 organizations will come to recruit students at the centers Year of Service Fair on Oct. 27. Ultimately for Le, financial concerns are trumped by her wish to help shape policy. I think its ultimately that if public service is something you love to do, theres ways to make it work, Le said. This is what Im passionate about. Thats whats going to make me happy.

hat happens when everything you do doesnt work? At school were taught all those cliches that tell us to keep trying, never give up and hop back on the horse even if we fall off every time we get on. However, what they dont prepare us for is when all the above doesnt hold true. In moments like these, I think about way, way, way back in the day, when my PlayStation wasnt working, the daily Arthur episode was just a rerun and I couldnt find my Game Boy. I thought my world was ending. Nothing I did was working, so I would go to my mom whining about being bored and wanting something to do. In response, she would go on a rant about how back when she was young, her parents would just send her and her siblings outside to play, and then lock the door so they couldnt get back in. Of course, I knew my mom would never do that to me (she barely let me cross the street on my own until I was at double digits, petrified that I would end up getting kidnapped in the middle of the crosswalk.) However, that wouldnt stop her from waxing nostalgic about a time before play dates, before activities had to be educational and before parents had to be more creative than their kids to keep them entertained. Nonetheless, once I looked beyond the parental craziness, I could see that there was actually sane advice in there. In life, you have to learn how to make your own fun. And life has reminded me time and time again that it is often very nec-

essary to do so. Work, work, work, work, yeah you know I got that work. Wales Bait became my unintentional anthem this past weekend as I attempted to live up to my own and other peoples expectations of what a good time really is. Never in my life have I spent so much time trying to find something to do on a Saturday night, especially not when Im attending the supposed capital of school social life. But I sucked it up, and to avoid all that ridiculousness, my party-pal and I spent copious amounts of time doing research and pre-party planning to ensure that we found the function. And we did. We found the magic words free before 11, and we were on it. This time we got ready early, checking yes to everything on our goingout list. Even though we had done everything right and had backup contingency plans, things still went wrong.Our ride never came no matter how many times we called, neither of us could afford to drop $30 just to enter a sweaty, overpriced club and we had no desire to walk past the locals who really liked our outfits (I never thought being called Tina Turner could make me cringe). So we were left with the decision to wallow in our disappointment or to keep it moving. And this is when I had a miniepiphany as my mothers words came back to me about making my own fun making my own way. Everyone knows that sometimes things just dont go as planned thats stating the obvious but gas rather than a fossil fuel because it is already in the atmosphere and is merely completing the natural carbon cycle. He also noted that Palo Alto should expect to see a lot of precinct blocking and mailing to voters in the next few weeks in favor of Measure E. Theres no technology. Were just going to have the land set aside, said former city councilwoman Emily Renzel. The park has long been planned and designed. The park was supposed to be a natural open space, so the architects designed it to have a somewhat natural earth form. Renzel said she believes that the addition of a compost facility would be met with practical difficulties in removing a slice of the landfill for construction. She, like Espinosa, believes that in the same manner that waste management needs to adjust with the population, park space needs to be appropriately protected and increased.

COMPOST
Continued from front page
Voting yes on this measure isnt guaranteeing that a compost facility will be there. Its just guaranteeing that it wont be parkland. Meanwhile, proponents of Measure E focus on the potential environmental benefits of an anaerobic digestion operation and compost facility on land that they believe will be more useful as a waste management facility. It will never be natural because the natural state of the site out there was wetlands, said Peter Drekmeier, former mayor of Palo Alto. When you process [food and sewage waste] together, you get higher energy output than if you do them separately. Drekmeier clarified that biogas is considered a biogenic greenhouse

Success on Senior Night

Card honors four, wins by five
By JORDAN GUNNING The Stanford field hockey teams seniors goalkeeper Ale Moss and attackers Stephanie Byrne, Katie Mitchell and Devon Holman completed a perfect NorPac season after Friday nights 5-0 victory against UC-Davis. The Senior Night shutout against the Aggies (3-10, 1-3 NorPac) helped advance the No. 4 Cardinals record to 6-0 in NorPac conference play and 13-2 overall.

Cardinals road woes continue

First road goal not enough
By TORSTEIN HOSET With fond memories of last weekends outing against Oregon State in mind, the Stanford mens soccer team traveled to the Pacific Northwest in hopes of improving on its meager 1-3-1 Pac-12 record and eyeing a chance to move up in the conference standings with a good showing in rematches against Washington and Oregon State. But the Huskies showed no signs of cooling down as they continued their recent hot streak with a 2-0 win over the Cardinal on Friday night. Corvallis proved to be a rough trip for Stanford, as the Card couldnt close the deal and lost in overtime.

FIELD HOCKEY UC-DAVIS 0 STANFORD 5 10/21, Varsity Turf

The Cardinal came out swinging with the first shot on goal in the fifth minute made by junior defender Kelsey Lloyd. The Aggies responded with two shots on goal by Casey Wollbrinck and Cloey LemMon in the ninth minute following a penalty corner. Stanford stopped both shots, the first by Moss and the second on a defensive save by Lloyd. These would be the Aggies only shots on goal all game. In the 11th minute, junior defender Becky Dru came up with the first goal of the game and her 13th of the season off a rather powerful shot following a penalty corner. The next 22 minutes of play were characterized by excellent handling by the Cardinal, as the team drew seven fouls and attempted three shots on goal. In the same time period the Aggies only managed to draw three fouls, leading to one penalty corner and no shots on goal. This would set the tone for the rest of the

Sundays game at Oregon State (5-8-2, 3-3-1 Pac-12) saw the Cardinal symptomatically struggling to capitalize on its scoring chances on the road the team has scored just one goal through the first seven away games of the season. The match itself was a tight affair neither side could break through and the shot totals were fairly even at 13-10 in favor of the home side. Stanford put the hosts goalie Steve Spangler to the test on seven occasions without bagging a goal, but the Beavers also looked dangerous on the counterattack. The decisive moment came less than two minutes into overtime, when Oregon State sophomore Josh von Allworden tallied what Stanford head coach Bret Simon described as a fluky goal. But as much as the Cardinal was nearly helpless to stop the golden goal from von Allworden which came after a long free kick was tipped away by goalie Jason Dodson and fell straight to von Allwordens feet in front of goal Stanford had its chances to slow the Huskies two days earlier in Seattle. The reunion with the Huskies (10-3-2, 5-2-0), who shut out the Cardinal last weekend at Cagan Stadium, didnt start out well. Stanford came into the game with a desire to rid itself of the 500-pound gorilla that had been riding the teams back for the last couple of weeks the Cardinal hadnt scored on the road since a 3-2 defeat at the hands of California last November, a stretch of six straight road matches where Stanford was outscored 9-0. And while the opening minutes saw Washington holding much of the possession, the Huskies were also unable to threaten the Stanford back four. But after 11 minutes, a momentary lapse in concentration in the Cardinal defense allowed Washingtons Jamie Finch to swing in an excellent cross that found an unmarked Jake Hustedt in the box. Hustedt showed good composure to control the ball before poking it past Dodson for an early lead. Simon had laid specific plans to contain Finch and Hustedt, but had to concede that they got the better of his own players on the first goal. Finch is one of the most dangerous crossers in the conference. He played an amazing ball, Simon said. And we all know about Hustedts qualities from his time at Cal Poly. But the Cardinal responded promptly. In the 20th minute, a Stanford free kick

Sophomore forward Sydney Payne knocked home the final goal of the weekend as the No. 1 Stanford womens soccer team beat Pac-12 newcomers Utah and Colorado by a combined score of 8-1.

With a come-from-behind victory, a virtuoso defensive performance, a ton of goals and then some more goals, the Stanford mens water polo team provided just about everything you could ask for this weekend, going a perfect 5-0 as it knocked off conference rival Pacific on Friday and swept through the Santa Clara Invitational on Saturday and Sunday. Stanford (14-3, 3-1 MPSF) scored 76 goals over the three days, with every active non-goalie player getting on the score sheet at least once. Freshman utility Alex Bowen led the way with 14 goals (including four hat tricks), followed by senior driver Jacob Smith with 11, redshirt sophomore twometer Forrest Watkins with 10 and senior utility Peter Sefton with 10 as well.

On Friday night Stanford beat No. 7 Pacific 8-6, overcoming yet another halftime deficit.The other four games were considerably less competitive, as Stanford won each game by double digits and never trailed in any of the games. On Saturday the Cardinal defeated No.17 Bucknell 15-1 and then Harvard 19-3. On Sunday the team won 18-5 over Brown and 16-3 over No. 18 Air Force. The weekend started off on a high note,as early goals by Smith and Watkins gave Stanford a 2-0 lead against Pacific. Things went sour quickly for the Cardinal, though, as the Tigers finished off the half on a 5-1 run to go into halftime leading 5-3. An early second quarter goal by Smith was the only one that Stanford would score during that run. Stanford has been making a habit of digging itself a hole in the first half. This is the third straight conference game in which the team has been trailing by two goals at halftime. But this is also the third straight game in which a strong third quarter has gotten the Cardinal right back into the game. Stanford took the third frame 4-1 behind a pair of power play goals from Bowen and an absolutely dominant defensive performance. Pacifics goal in the third quarter was its only one of the half, as Stanford shut the

Now having scored three or more goals in five consecutive games, the Stanford womens soccer team bludgeoned Utah and Colorado by the combined score of 8-1 this weekend behind a pair of two-goal performances by senior forward Lindsay Taylor.

n the space of a week, the world of auto racing has lost two stars: on Oct. 16 IndyCar driver Dan Wheldon lost his life in a 15-car accident at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway, and seven days later MotoGP rider Marco Simoncelli was killed in a crash at the Sepang International Circuit in Malaysia. I cant really go into much more detail than that, simply because I havent read the stories or watched replays of the incidents. Not because I havent had the time, but because Im not sure that I want to. Many of you probably werent born or may have been too young to remember when Ayrton Senna died,but I unfortunately remember quite clearly watching the 1994 San Marino Formula 1 Grand Prix live on TV.It is a weird feeling even to think back to that weekend and the images flickering across the screen when two F1 drivers

Sports world is too enamored with injuries

Senna and Roland Ratzenberger lost their lives. Literally watching the end of someones life isnt something a kid should have to deal with. Even 17 years later, I dont think Id want to watch replays of that incident. Many of the sports we watch can be incredibly violent. Crunching tackles are a core part of both football and rugby, fighting is a bizarrely accepted part of ice hockey and pretty much any auto-racing discipline is characterized by the occasional big accident. Even relatively gentle sports like soccer arent immune however much people may criticize players for feigning injury, they are not always faking. Competitors in any sport are always applauded for their commitment, even if that can sometimes lead to serious injury for either them or their opposition. Perhaps, though, there is a difference here between auto sports and the rest of them. In the same way many people watch the Super Bowl for the advertisements, many are drawn to auto racing by the big crashes. In fact, it doesnt really matter so much if those incidents are during the actual race or in practice;they will still make the highlight reel. Maybe it is that practices in other sports dont get recorded or that the videos arent made public, but Im not sure people would care about them in the same way.And if one of those incidents involved someone getting seriously injured or even dying, I think most would find it very uncomfortable to watch it. On a personal level, I find it hard to watch any serious sporting incidents. Not because I have known anyone who has died in extreme

game. In the 34th minute a Cardinal penalty corner led to another goal, this time by sophomore attacker Courtney Haldeman, assisted by fellow sophomore attacker Hope Burke. The first half, which was a true show of the Cardinals dominance both offensively and defensively, ended with just a 2-0 Stanford lead. Following the solid rhythm established in the first half, Stanford took less than seven minutes to notch another tally, as freshman attacker Alex McCawley came up with the third goal of the night from a shot that surprised Aggies keeper Conley Craven. In the 57th minute McCawley was able to assist fellow freshman midfielder Kasey Quon with her first goal of the season and the fourth Cardinal goal of the night on a nice low-post shot that snuck past Craven. Shortly after, an interesting scene occurred when it appeared that Davis had scored a goal, but the shot was called back as it had not been from inside the circle. The frustration of both the Aggie fans and coaches was visible after the goal was disallowed. The final goal of the night came from the Cardinals Lloyd, assisted by freshman midfielder Shannon Herold, in the 68th minute off a great penalty corner. After the inbound by Burke, a fantastic misdirection by the Cardinal left the crowd and the Aggies stunned. By the end of the game the Cardinal had racked up not only five goals but an impressive 21 shots on goal, four of which came from Dru, compared to the Aggies two shots. Stanford also led in penalty corners 5-3 and had the only defensive save of the night. Up next for the Cardinal is a weekend trip to the state of Michigan, where it will face No. 8 Michigan (12-4, 4-1 Big Ten) on Friday at 12 p.m. PST and Michigan State (7-10, 1-4) on Sunday at 4 p.m. PST.

circumstances, but because I know what it feels like to deal with injury. I wont bore you with the details, but having had far too many operations and spent far too much of my life on crutches, I wince at seeing anyone even so much as pull a muscle on TV. Not that Im a saint, though. I cant preach too much because, after all, Im human. Everyone looks occasionally, whether because you want to know what everyone else is looking at, because you succumb to morbid fascination or because you simply want a better understanding of what is going on. Watching the serious news with all the grisly violence censored out would give us a dangerously misleading view of the facts, but the trick is in finding a balance between gory and story. Im not sure, though, that we do this very well. In Sundays Rugby World Cup Final, New Zealand flyhalf Aaron Cruden hyper-extended his knee in a tackle and needed to be helped from the field as he clearly could not even put weight on the injury. Most viewers probably didnt quite realize exactly what had happened live, so a first slow-motion replay was probably justified. But the second? The third? At some point among the replays from various angles we stopped learning anything new and began simply relishing the awfulness of the injury. The sensational always grabs the headlines, and even more so in the Twitter-inspired, rapid-fire rhythm of modern life, where you dont get 15 minutes of fame you get 15 seconds. Only the most shocking can break through. Is there an answer to this? Im not sure. Perhaps, though, TV broadcasters could resist the temptation to overplay the replays and the slow-motion shots quite so much and get back to the live action and the interesting bits. Once we know something was bad, and even how bad it was, why dwell on it? Id rather learn about the whole of Wheldon and Simoncellis careers and lives than how they ended. Tom Taylor just wishes there were slo-mo cameras around to capture his many gruesome injuries. Get him to relive those painful memories at tom.taylor@stanford.edu.

Tigers out for the final 10 minutes of the game. Bowen would score once more in the second half, as did redshirt junior driver Travis Noll and junior driver Paul Rudolph. Redshirt senior goalie Brian Pingree ended the day with eight saves. The Cardinal then made the weekend trip to nearby Santa Clara for the Rodeo Tournament, which featured four games against teams from the East Coast. Stanford had a field day, or rather two field days, in the course of the four games. The weekend was highlighted by a 19-3 win over Harvard in which four players (Sefton, Bowen, Noll and Rudolph) had hat tricks and eleven Stanford players scored at least one goal. Pingree had 21 saves over the two days, and redshirt sophomore goalie Hunter Ploch, who saw significant action over the weekend, had a solid performance with 11. After the 5-0 weekend, the Cardinal will travel down south to take on the defending champions and current No. 2 USC Trojans on Saturday. Stanford has already played USC twice this season.

was fired into the box, and the ball bounced around before it found the feet of redshirt senior Taylor Amman. He kept his cool and slotted home his first goal of the season for the equalizer. The Huskies mounted an offensive charge after Stanfords goal, but the pressure didnt amount to anything until five minutes before halftime, when Stanford was punished by a ruthless counterattack. Great combination play by substitute Abdul Aman and Brent Richards set up Aman, who made no mistakes on a quality finish that gave Washington the lead. After the break, the Cardinal came out of the starting blocks eager to prove its worth. Stanford quickly took control of the game and looked likely to score throughout the second half, outshooting its

opponents 5-2. The goal never came though, and the Cardinal was handed its second loss in as many weeks by the Huskies, who have now won their last five matches. Despite this, Simon seemed happy with his teams display. I thought we got stronger as the game progressed, he said.We were creating good scoring opportunities, but their goalkeeper made a couple of key saves. We knew that it was highly unlikely to make the playoffs, so the goal for this weekend and the upcoming games was to keep improving and playing better soccer. I think we did that, he said. Stanford now has a bye week before hosting Southern California schools San Diego State and UCLA this weekend.The Cardinal will look to exact some revenge and possibly play the spoiler, as both visiting teams have serious postseason aspirations.

great, Taylor said. Im really fortunate to have great teammates who were able to get me the ball, so I was open around a lot of shots. Taylor got things off to a very quick start against Utah (8-7-1, 4-3 Pac-12), a squad performing in the top half of the conference after a mediocre 2010 season, with a fourthminute goal that came off feeds from senior midfielder Teresa Noyola and freshman forward Chioma Ubogagu a duo that leads Stanford in assists with 10 and nine, respectively. Just 12 minutes later, Ubogagu added a tally of her own when junior midfielder Mariah Nogueira found her behind the defense for a left-footer to the far post. Meanwhile, sophomore goalkeeper Emily Oliver was sharp as always in net, making two saves and facing only three shots from the Utes in the first half. Four minutes after Taylors second goal of the match, a 62nd-minute header off a feed from Ubogagu, Oliver was pulled in favor of junior Lindsay Dickerson, who made just her fourth appearance of the year. Only 11 seconds later, the Cardinal put things away for its backup with a close-range finish by junior midfielder Nina Watkins, her first of the season as a non-starter and just the second of her career. Substitutes would again play a big role for Stanford on Sunday against Colorado; with temperatures reaching the low 80s, head coach Paul Ratcliffe didnt force any of his players to stay in for the whole 90 minutes by contrast, the Buffaloes left four starters in all game. What weve realized throughout this season is that we have depth in this team,Taylor said.Even subs are able to come onto the field and make a difference, and theyve done that in every game, whether theyre coming in at forward,midfield or defense. The Cardinals starters had their time to shine as well. When Colorado goalie Kayla Millar seemed to mishit a long pass, junior midfielder Marjani Hing-Glover grabbed the ball near midfield, deked around a defender and curled one in to the far post 10 minutes into the game. Just three minutes later, an Ubogagu feed found Taylor who had been barely stopped twice already, once by the crossbar and once by Millar on a point-blank attempt alone on goal, and this time, Taylor buried the shot for her third goal of the weekend. Stanford wouldnt get on the board again in the first frame despite dominating the shot count 16-2. But only 49 seconds after subbing in midway through the second half, redshirt sophomore defender Annie Case launched a perfect cross through the box to find a waiting Taylor at the back post for the seniors 14th of the season.
