SENATE REJECTS SLIMMED-DOWN OBAMA JOBS BILL
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Smiling probably comes easy to
most, but for one young man who
works at a local movie theater, his
inability to smile could have cost
him his job.
Lucas Coulston, who works at
Century Theatres in San Bruno, has
autism and grew up in a less than
desirable living situation, being
shipped from family member to
family member and attending sever-
al schools in his youth before
reuniting with his grandmother,
who lives in Belmont.
He always wanted to work, how-
ever, and secured the job he has now
through a Community Gatepath
program.
But theater management told
Coulstons job coach that there was
concern about how he was not smil-
ing when greeting customers.
Coulston asked his job coach to
help him understand what smiling
was because he did not know what
his face feels like to smile.
With coaching, support and
encouragement from his co-workers
at the movie theater, Coulston now
smiles and is more engaging than
ever. He also lives in San Bruno in a
community housing environment
and can walk to work if he chooses.
In fact, with his new condence
and bright smile, he now imagines
himself as being a standup comedi-
an.
To honor his achievements,
Community Gatepath awarded
Coulston with the Neal Poppin
Award yesterday at its annual Power
of Possibilities breakfast.
Poppin was a former Gatepath
client whose spirit and determina-
tion allowed him to live an active
life despite his disability. Each year,
an outstanding Gatepath participant
is given the award who demon-
strates that same extraordinary ded-
ication and can-do spirit.
It was amazing, fullling and

WASHINGTON The secular and
the religious, the politicians and the mil-
itants all basked Thursday in the demise
of a dictator after fighters killed
Moammar Gadha and eradicated once
and for all his four decades of repression
in Libya. But while congratulations
poured in from across the world, the
Obama administration and others tem-
pered the celebrations with a dose of
caution, conscious
that Libyas formerly
ragtag band of rebels
must now avoid
falling prey to
extremists among
themselves, or the
type of political

adopts cap

By Jason Dearen
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO California for-
mally adopted the nations most compre-
hensive so-called cap-and-trade system
Thursday, an experiment by the worlds
eighth-largest economy that is designed to
provide nancial incentives for polluters to
reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
State officials said they hoped other
states and Washington, D.C., would follow
suit, calling the plan a capstone among the suite of tools
California can use to reduce the pollution linked to climate
change and cut dependence on foreign oil.
For half a century every American president has been call-

oil and become energy independent, said Mary Nichols, chair-

Expert: Jackson didnt
give himself propofol
LOS ANGELES Michael Jackson
was so heavily drugged in the hours
before his death that he would have been
incapable of self-administering the mas-
sive dose of propofol that killed him, a
medical expert testied Thursday at the
trial of Jacksons doctor.
Dr. Steven Shafer, who presented a
number of possible scenarios for
Jacksons overdose, said one posed by
Dr. Conrad Murrays defense that the
star gave himself the powerful anesthet-
ic is crazy.
He cant give himself an injection if
hes asleep, Shafer told jurors.
The more likely scenario was that
Murray placed Jackson on an IV propo-
fol drip on the morning of his death then
left later to make a series of phone calls
as the singer slept, Shafer said.
Jackson probably stopped breathing
before Murray returned, and the singers
lungs emptied while the propofol kept
owing into his body, the witness said.
This ts all of the data in this case
and I am not aware of a single piece of
data that is inconsistent with this expla-
nation, Shafer said.
Earlier, Shafer took the jury through a
virtual chemistry class with diagrams
and formulas projected on a large
screen. He indicated the residue of drugs
found during Jacksons autopsy suggest-
ed Murray gave his patient much larger
doses of sedatives than he told police.
He also said Jackson would have been
extremely groggy from the drugs admin-
istered by IV throughout the night.
Stolen panties prompt
investigation in New Mexico
LAS CRUCES, N.M Campus
police at New Mexico State University
are investigating claims that a man came
into a womans yard and stole panties
from her clothesline.
The Las Cruces Sun-News reports that
police responded to the womans home
Monday.
She told ofcers she had hung several
pairs of colored underwear, two bras and
some of her sons shirts on the clothes-
line Saturday evening. She found her
gate open Sunday morning and nine
pairs of panties worth about $60 were
gone.
Police have not named any suspects.
The case comes just a year after ve
members of an NMSU sorority told
police one of their members had been
stealing Victorias Secret underwear and
bras worth hundreds of dollars. All the
items, except for one bra, were eventual-
ly recovered.
Michael Douglas son
pleads guilty to drug charge
NEW YORK Michael Douglas
imprisoned son pleaded guilty to a new
drug charge Thursday, admitting that he
managed to get drugs in prison even
while he was cooperating with the gov-
ernment in a drug investigation.
Cameron Douglas, 32, pleaded guilty
to a narcotics possession charge, saying:
God knows Im sorry about this situa-
tion. Although the charge carries the
potential for a 20-year prison term, a
plea deal with prosecutors recommend-
ed Douglas serve between a year and 1
1/2 years in prison. His sentencing was
set for Dec. 21.
Michael Douglas, who was not in
court, said in a statement that his sons
offense involved a small user-quantity of
drugs.
Cameron accepts full responsibility
for his conduct, the father said. While
he has made much progress, he is still
not cured. Most people and their fami-
lies are able to address this illness pri-
vately and outside the spotlight.
Unfortunately this has not been possible
here for reasons completely outside
of his control. He thanks those that have
rooted for his recovery and looks for-
ward to the day when he will not disap-
point.
The plea came just two weeks after
Cameron Douglas testied as a govern-
ment witness against a co-defendant fac-
ing drug charges. The testimony was
part of the cooperation he promised
when he was sentenced to ve years in
prison after his arrest in July 2009 for
dealing methamphetamine from a high-
end Manhattan hotel.

DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
I guess the real story of Notre Dame de
Namur Universitys production of The Three
Sisters is how far this small theater depart-
ment in this small university, under the direc-
tion of Professor Michael B. Elkins, chair of
the Theatre Arts Department, has come in
recent years.
Drawing from current students, alumni and
community theater people, it gathered a aw-
less cast for this very complex and difcult
classical play and came up with a bell ringer.
Actually, it is cut down and performed in an
adaptation by famed modern playwright
David Mamet, making it more palatable in
length. Movie moguls used to call it the seat
of the pants test for the modern audiences.
With more characters on stage than the cost
of professional productions could endure
today, the play carries a number of cross
themes and relationships: The boredom of a
decaying upper class in a small provincial
town in rural Russia at the turn of the 20th
century, a search for meaning in a modern
world, numerous indelities, pessimism and
unhappiness in the somber and wintry Russian
mode and dreams deferred and lost.
The dreams of the three Prozoroff sisters,
Olga (junior Margaret Gorrell), Irena (senior
Morgan Lewis) and Masha (graduate Laura
Hill) are to return to Moscow from whence
they had been removed some 11 years prior to
a garrison town of only 100,000 by their mili-
tary father. Now, with his death, the control of
the family nances and home had fallen into
the hands of a rather weak brother Andrei
(freshman Arnaldo Vivanco) who gambled
away most of their fortune, mortgaged the
house and married a ruthless Natalya (junior
Danielle Vivion) of a lower economic class.
Return to Moscow had become symbolic of
their hopes but, in many ways, the dreams of
all four became self-defeated, with failures in
work and marriage.
All of these roles are being performed with
a maturity far beyond what one would expect
from their years, as is that of senior Anthony
Andrade Jr., as Vasily, a junior ofcer in the
garrison. He is among the other ofcers who
frequent the Prozoroff parlor and dining table
and is rejected by Irina. Senior Mandy
Omoregie is the long-serving and aging
Ansa. Alumnus Adam Ellison is Vershinin,
another ofcer and amateur philosopher, who
had known the family in Moscow and began a
love affair with the married Masha.
Mashas dream has already been compro-
mised after she had married the stuffy, preten-
tious but warmhearted schoolteacher Kulygin
(another great characterization by the versatile
community actor George Metropulos).
Veteran actor Jeff Young may have his best
role ever as Chebutykin, the brigade doctor,
who had previously had an unrequited love for
their mother.
Another veteran performer is Richard
Newton as the Baron Tuzenbach who loves
Irina and quits the army to go to work to
impress her.

SAN FRANCISCO Supporters of the
2008 ballot measure that outlawed same-sex
marriages in California lost their effort
Thursday to block their past and future cam-
paign finance records from public view
because of alleged harassment of their donors.
A federal judge in Sacramento ruled against
ProtectMarriage.com and the National
Organization for Marriage in a nearly three-
year-old lawsuit, saying the two groups failed
to prove they should be exempted from the
states campaign disclosure laws.
U.S. District Judge Morrison England Jr.
ruled from the bench after a brief hearing and
plans to issue a written opinion later, San
Francisco Deputy City Attorney Mollie Lee
said.
The winners here are really the voters of
California, Lee said. The First Amendment
interest that the judge upheld in his ruling is
the interest in having a robust democracy, an
informed electorate and vigorous debate.
ProtectMarriage.com is a coalition of reli-
gious conservative groups that sponsored and
campaigned for the state constitutional
amendment known as Proposition 8, which
ultimately was approved by 52 percent of
California voters and has been subject to con-
tinuing court challenges by same-sex marriage
supporters. The National Organization for
Marriage solicited donations that were used to
qualify the measure for the November 2008
voters.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
Peninsula grandparents are increasingly
being targeted by telephone scam artists
claiming to be loved ones in distress, the San
Mateo County Sheriffs Ofce reports.
One crook was able to get a local grandfa-
ther to wire him more than $20,000 in eight
separate wire transfers, according to the
Sheriffs Ofce.
During the past two months, the Sheriffs
Ofce has received several reports of tele-
phone scam artists who pretend to be a family
member in trouble and then ask for money to
be transferred to them via Western Union.
The crooks tell their victims elaborate lies
and pose as family members.
The man who was scammed out of $20,000
thought he was sending the money to his
grandson, according to the Sheriffs Ofce.
The fake grandson told the victim that he
was in Italy, had gotten in a car accident and
suffered a broken nose and two black eyes.
The crook cautioned the victim not to contact
his mother because she would be upset and he
would tell her about the incident when he got
home, according to the Sheriffs Ofce.
The victim made a total of eight wire trans-
fers to what he believed to be Italy and Spain,
according to the Sheriffs Ofce.
After making the wire transfers, the victim
nally did contact his daughter and was told
that his grandson was never involved in an
accident nor was he out of the country, accord-
ing to the Sheriffs Ofce.
In another case, the suspect again posed as
the victims grandson, said he was involved in
an accident in Spain and he had a broken nose
and arm. He asked his grandparents to wire
him $2,300 so he could get out of the country.
The grandmother then called her son and
found out that her grandson was attending col-
lege in Sacramento, according to the Sheriffs
Ofce.
In all of the reported cases, the suspect
posed as a grandson claiming to be overseas
with injuries and in need of money, according
to the Sheriffs Ofce.
The Sheriffs Ofce warns that just because
the suspect says he is in Florence, Italy, for
instance, does not mean the money cannot be
accessed in Redwood City, San Francisco or
any other place in the world.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LONDON Danish researchers can offer
some reassurance if youre concerned about
your cellphone: Dont worry. Your device is
probably safe.
The biggest study ever to examine the pos-
sible connection between cellphones and can-
cer found no evidence of any link, suggesting
that billions of people who are rarely more
than a few inches from their phones have no
special health concerns.
The Danish study of more than 350,000
people concluded there was no difference in
cancer rates between people who had used a
cellphone for about a decade and those who
did not.
Last year, a separate large study found no
clear connection between cellphones and can-
cer. But it showed a hint of a possible associ-
ation between very heavy phone use and
glioma, a rare but often deadly form of brain
tumor. However, the numbers of heavy users
was not sufcient to make the case.
That study of more than 14,000 people in
multiple countries, in addition to animal
experiments, led the International Agency for
Research on Cancer to classify electromagnet-
ic energy from cellphones as possibly car-
cinogenic, adding it to a list that also includes
things such as coffee and gasoline engine
exhaust.
But that designation does not mean the
phones necessarily pose a risk. Cellphones do
not emit the same kind of radiation as that
used in some medical tests or found in other
sources such as radon in soil.
Two U.S. agencies the Food and Drug
Administration and the Federal
Communications Commission have found
no evidence that cellphones are linked to can-
cer.
Yet fears of a link persist, despite the fact
that cancer rates have not risen since cell-
phones were introduced.
In the latest research, published online
Thursday in the journal BMJ, researchers
updated a previous study examining 358,403
cellphone users aged 30 and over in Denmark
from 1990 to 2007. They found cellphone
users did not have a higher cancer risk com-
pared with those without cellphones.
Cellphone study: No cancer link
By Paul Elias
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO San Franciscos
attempt to wade into the hotly debated rela-
tionship between cellphone use and long-
term health effects was delayed for at least a
week Thursday and possibly much longer.
City attorneys agreed to U.S. District Court
Judge William Alsups request to put off
implementing the new law that would require
city retailers selling cellphones to hang
posters, put stickers on products and hand-
out brochures discussing radiation emissions
and possible health effects.
The judge asked for the delay until ruling
on the industrys request for an injunction
while he considers its lawsuit challenging the
law. The law was to go in effect on Tuesday.
Alsup said he would rule on the industrys
request for an injunction within a week.
San Francisco Supervisors voted 10-1 in
2010 for the rst-in-the-nation law that was
to go in effect on Tuesday after previous
delays prompted by an industry lawsuit.
During a hearing Thursday in San
Francisco federal court, the judge appeared
skeptical of San Franciscos contention that
long-term cellphone use could lead to seri-
ous health problems such as tumors and can-
cer.
There is no scientic proof, Alsup told
Deputy City Attorney Vince Chabria. You
cant prove that a single person in the entire
universe has gotten cancer from a cellphone.
Chhabria countered that the opposite was
also true: that no scientic proof existed
guaranteeing cellphones were completely
safe. Chhabria said the citys posters and
brochures were intended to help concerned
consumers with recommendations like using
a belt clip rather than putting the device in a
pants pocket.
Chhabria said the World Health
Organization has found frequent cellphone
usage could lead to cancer and recommends
reducing exposure.

However, Harris said she was worried that
an overly broad federal enforcement cam-

patients to access physician-recommended
medicine in California.
She urged federal authorities to make sure
their enforcement efforts are focused on sig-
nicant trafckers of illegal drugs.

Frustrated Central Valley congressman retiring
FRESNO Five-term Rep. Dennis Cardoza of California
announced Thursday he will not seek re-election next year,
expressing frustration with a political
process that rewards screamers and criti-
cizing the Obama administration for what he
characterized as a failure to solve the hous-
ing crisis.
In an unusual attack on a president of his
own party, the moderate Democrat had
harsh words for President Barack Obamas
approach to a mortgage and housing crisis
that has led to widespread foreclosures
through Cardozas Central Valley congres-
sional district.
Home foreclosures are destroying communities and crushing
our economy, and the administrations inaction is infuriating,
Cardoza said in a statement.

Thursdays report urges the Food and Drug Administration to
adopt new food labeling to clear the confusing clutter off todays
packages and give consumers a fast way to compare choices.
It wouldnt replace the in-depth Nutrition Facts panel thats
now on the back or side of food packages. But few shoppers stop
to read or heed that ne print in the middle of the grocery aisle.

WASHINGTON Despite a cam-
paign-style push this week by President
Barack Obama, the Senate on Thursday
scuttled pared-back jobs legislation
aimed at helping state and local govern-
ments avoid layoffs of teachers and
firefighters.
Obamas three-day bus tour through
North Carolina and Virginia states
crucial to his re-election race next year
didnt change any minds among
Senate Republicans, who filibustered
Obamas latest jobs measure to death
just as they killed his broader $447 bil-
lion jobs plan last week.
The 50-50 vote came in relation to a
motion to simply take up the bill and
fell well short of the 60 needed to break
a filibuster. Democrats Ben Nelson of
Nebraska, Mark Pryor of Arkansas and
Independent Joe Lieberman of
Connecticut broke with Obama on the
vote. Two Democrats who voted with
the president, Sen. Joe Manchin of West
Virginia and Jon Tester of Montana,
however, said they couldnt support the
underlying Obama plan unless its
changed.
Thursdays $35 billion measure com-
bined $30 billion for state and local
governments to hire teachers and other
school workers with $5 billion to help
pay the salaries of police officers, fire-
fighters and other first responders. The
White House says the measure would
support almost 400,000 education
jobs for one year. Republicans call that
a temporary sugar high for the econ-
omy.
Immediately afterward, Democrats
turned the tables and filibustered
Republican-backed legislation that
would prevent the government from
withholding 3 percent of payments to
government contractors. The legislation
failed to get the 60 votes needed to end
the filibuster on a 57-43 vote, even
though 10 Democrats voted to advance
it.
Many Democrats and President
Barack Obama support the idea but
opposed it Thursday because it would
be paid for with $30 billion in cuts from
domestic agency spending. Advocates
of repealing the withholding require-
ment say it will help create jobs, espe-
cially from contractors on large projects
with smaller profit margins.
Senate rejects trimmed jobs bill
Dennis Cardoza

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON The extreme
funk that settled over the country dur-
ing the summer has eased slightly, but
Americans remain gloomy about the
economy and more than half say
President Barack Obama does not
inspire condence about a recovery.
A sizable majority more than 7 in
10 believe the country is headed in
the wrong direction and, in a new high,
43 percent describe the nations econo-
my as very poor, according to a new
Associated Press-GfK poll. Among
those surveyed, less than 40 percent say
Obamas proposed remedies for high
unemployment would increase jobs
signicantly.
The pessimism is not a good sign for
the nations recovery hopes and pres-
ents a more urgent challenge for
Obama as he mounts his re-election
bid.
About 4 in 10 think unemployment
will rise in the coming year; just 23
percent expect it to decrease. And few
expect the government to be able to
help. Only 41 percent say the govern-
ment can do much to create jobs, and
less than 40 percent say the main ele-
ments of Obamas jobs proposal would
increase employment signicantly.
Whats more, expectations for the
coming year have not improved, with
41 percent believing the economy will
remain the same, 27 percent saying it
will get worse and 30 percent saying it
will improve.
In a glimmer of a bright spot, less
than a quarter of those surveyed say
they think the economy worsened in
the past month, compared with nearly
half who felt that way in August. And
Obama could nd some solace in the
polls finding that 44 percent place
heavy blame for the economys state on
President George W. Bush, while 27
percent put the blame on him.
Still, the publics mood is decidedly
downbeat, creating yet another obstacle
to economic growth, which relies in
part on public optimism to spur
demand.
Illustrating Obamas precarious
perch, 9 percent of survey respondents
who said he deserves to be re-elected
said they could vote for one of the three
leading Republicans seeking the presi-
dential nomination.

U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann speaks at the Commonwealth Club in San
Francisco.
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO
Republican presidential primary
contender Michele Bachmann said
Thursday that the world is better
off without Libyan leader
Moammar Gadhafi. But she said
she stands by her position that the
U.S. military shouldnt have gotten
involved.
The Minnesota congresswoman
offered a brief comment on
Gadhafis death Thursday before a
speech on government regulation
and innovation at a San Francisco
campaign event.
It is my hope that Gadhafis
reign of terror will be replaced
with a government that respects its
people in Libya and one that will
be a good partner with the United
States, Bachmann said.
Hopefully, today will also bring
to an end our military involvement
in Libya, something that I have
opposed from its beginning.
Bachmann invoked Apple co-
founder Steve Jobs as she praised
what she described as the nations
competitive spirit as the engine of
U.S.-led technological innovation.
Too much government involve-
ment in the private sector has ham-
pered that competitiveness and
hindered entrepreneurship, she
said.
Her standing-room-only appear-
ance at the famously liberal citys
historic Commonwealth Club
occurred without incident except
for some hisses when Bachmann
criticized the Occupy Wall Street
movement.

BERKELEY Two small earth-
quakes hit the San Francisco area
Thursday, jolting residents on the
same day many Californians took
part in an annual earthquake pre-
paredness drill.
A quake with a preliminary
magnitude of 3.8 struck about two
miles east of Berkeley at 8:16
p.m., the U.S. Geological Survey
said.
Thursday nights quake came
nearly six hours after a magnitude
4.0 earthquake hit in the same area.
Berkeley police said there were
no reports of damage or injuries
from either quake.
The second temblor was strong
enough to knock photographs off
the wall and glasses onto the oor
at the home of Diane Coppini, who
lives in nearby Emeryville.
It was a nice jolt, Coppini said
in describing the quake.
Despite the timing of the two
earthquakes, seismologists could
not determine if the second quake
was an aftershock to the earlier
quake, said USGS geophysicist
Shengzao Chen.
The earlier earthquake struck at
2:31 p.m. and was centered across
the bay from San Francisco, six
miles beneath the University of
California, Berkeley, campus,
according to U.S. Geological
Survey maps.
Jack Boatwright, a seismologist
with the USGS, described it as a
sharp little earthquake that had a
very nice impulsive character.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.
The number of gays and lesbians
adopting children has nearly tripled
in the past decade despite discrimi-
natory rules in many states, accord-
ing to an analysis of recent popula-
tion trends.
Its a stratospheric increase. Its
like going from zero to 60, said
Miami attorney Elizabeth Schwartz
who has coordinated more than 100
adoptions for gay and lesbian fami-
lies in the past year. I think many
really dreamed of doing this but it
wasnt something they ever thought
would become a reality.
About 21,740 same sex couples
had an adopted child in 2009, up
from 6,477 in 2000, according to the
Williams Institute, UCLA School of
Law. About 32,571 adopted children
were living with same sex couples
in 2009, up from 8,310 in 2000. The
gures are an analysis of newly
released Census Bureau estimates.
New York-based Evan B.
Donaldson Adoption Institute
released a report Thursday culmi-
nating a four-year project surveying
158 gay and lesbian parents and
their experience with the adoption
process. Their researchers found the
highest number of homosexuals
adopted children from
Massachusetts, California, New
York and Texas.

ONEONTA, Ala. Potato
farmer Keith Smith saw most of his
immigrant workers leave after
Alabamas tough immigration law
took effect, so he hired Americans.
It hasnt worked out: Most show up
late, work slower than seasoned
farm hands and are ready to call it a
day after lunch or by midafternoon.
Some quit after a single day.
In Alabama and other parts of the
country, farmers must look beyond
the nations borders for labor
because many Americans simply
dont want the backbreaking, low-
paying jobs immigrants are willing
to take. Politicians who support the
law say over time more unemployed
Americans will ll these jobs. They
insist its too early to consider the
law a failure, yet numbers from the
governors ofce show only nomi-
nal interest.
Ive had people calling me want-
ing to work, Smith said. I havent
turned any of them down, but
theyre not any good. Its hard work,
they just dont work like the

G
ang violence and nances are the
top issues for South San Francisco
this year, and the citys leadership
has been taking positive steps to stem vio-
lence and ensure nancial stability.
The city has maintained a healthy reserve
which has been useful as it contends with
economic struggles as every municipality
has since 2008. Rather than laying off
employees to meet its bottom line, the city
has judiciously used its reserves and reduced
its staff through attrition while adopting a
two-tiered benet system for new hires. It
has also been aggressive in maintaining its
current businesses and encouraging new
businesses to come to the city. A long-term
plan to move its Caltrain station and develop
the area around it is in the works despite set-
backs from the economy and uncertainty
created by the proposal to bring high-speed
rail through the area. That development will
create new housing opportunities for those
who work in the citys biotechs industry
while providing built-in customers for its
downtown business base. Economic develop-
ment is always a work in progress and takes
keen oversight, unique ideas and collabora-
tion with many different stakeholders. The
current council provides that mix of expert-
ise.
As far as stemming gang violence, that too
is a work in progress. The issue has been a
slow burn, but sparked late last year when a
triple murder shook the Old Town neighbor-
hood. The city snapped to attention and
began a multi-pronged approach to solidify
the safety needs of that neighborhood. By
immediately providing the funds for four
additional police ofcers, it created an
atmosphere of control while also establishing
critical outreach programs to the community
to identify leaders and solutions. By facilitat-
ing a bottom-up approach while reaching out
to others to provide certain levels of expertise
and best practices, the city created the
groundwork for community building and col-
laboration that is so important in connecting
hard-to-reach populations to a variety of
resources. Gang violence subsided in part
because of the multi-pronged effort but the
citys leadership is committed to keeping the
issue at the forefront so it does not only
receive attention when it arises again as it
did in September when there was another
gang-related murder in the city. That effort
has been the focus of two members of the
City Council who are running for re-election
in November Mayor Kevin Mullin and
Vice Mayor Rich Garbarino. As mayor,
Mullin has made the issue of gang violence
his top priority and has been assisted by
Councilman Pedro Gonzalez in connecting to
various stakeholders. Garbarino wholeheart-
edly supports the effort and has committed to
continuing the effort if he is named mayor
next year.
As far as finances and the host of other
issues facing the city, both Mullin and
Garbarino have the experience and desire to
serve South San Francisco and its residents
in the future. Challenging them is Johnny
Midnight Rankins, who admits he has
much to learn about the basics of city gov-
ernment and the issues facing the city. This
is a challenging time, and one that deserves
dedication and experience. Mullin and
Garbarino are the best choices for the city
and deserve a return trip to the City
Council.
Kill the boondoggle
Editor,
A new Sept. 29, 2011 statewide poll, pro-
duced by Probolsky Research, conrms
California voters would overwhelmingly vote
to spend limited state money on education and
tuition, mentally ill, water and the environment
(75 percent) over a high-speed-train between
San Francisco and Los Angeles (11 percent).
And, 63 percent voted to end the high-speed
rail boondoggle now and 61percent said they
would never take a high-speed rail train from
San Francisco to Los Angeles.
The results are not shocking. Due to
Californias bad budget, in 2011-2012 we see:
protests at UC and CSU from 26 percent
tuition increases, lawsuits from cities or
non\prots due to the state taking their money
but releasing convicted felons into our com-
munities, senior centers and state parks clos-
ing, raiding of city redevelopment funds, cut-
backs in social services, etc. In contrast, high-
speed rail cost estimates continue to rise to
$67 billion to $100 billion and the feds are
only providing $3 billion, with California
liable for $97 billion and additional cost over-
runs. Call Gov. Jerry Brown at (916) 445-
2841 and Treasurer Bill Lockyer at (916) 653-
2995 to kill the boondoggle now.

Editor,
Matt Grocotts letter, Tonopah solar scan-
dal? in the Oct. 13 edition of the Daily

the right wing idealogues, and some left wing
crusaders. I receive a number of such emails
from friends and acquaintances. The key
phrase, I read something online, rarely identi-
es the source or the author of the something
online which would help me or anyone to ver-
ify the source or the credibility of the author.
Internet communication is full of rumors,
half-truths, innuendos and outright lies. It
serves no purpose to circulate news or opinions
from the internet without supporting the mes-
sage by identifying a veried source or author.
An elected public ofcial like Grocott should

How to deal with
foreclosure crisis
Newsday, New York
F
our years into the housing bust, its
painfully obvious that the Obama
administrations efforts to address the
foreclosure crisis have failed.
A hodgepodge of federal programs has
helped only a fraction of the millions in need.
Billions of dollars appropriated for keeping
people in their homes have gone unspent.
Uncle Sam and lenders alike have moved at a
snails pace, unable or unwilling to cut through
the tangle of red tape, perverse incentives and
ethical quandaries that have so far defeated
attempts at relief.
Its time for the administration to try a new
and comprehensive approach. Its in a good
position to do so in the wake of the nancial
crisis, since 90 percent of mortgages issued
nowadays are guaranteed by Uncle Sam, most-
ly via Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, both now
government wards. This gives Washington
unprecedented power over residential lending.
First, the government needs to help millions
of underwater homeowners renance. The
main thing keeping them from doing so on
their own is a lack of home equity, but this is
silly; renancing actually reduces lender risk
by making a loan more affordable.
Second, its time to overcome our national
phobia about reducing the mortgage principal
of underwater homeowners. Done judiciously,
this can stave off a tsunami of foreclosures,
rescue millions from the indebtedness that is
crushing consumer spending, and get housing
back on the road to recovery. It will also help
save neighborhoods from the blight of empty,
untended homes
A comprehensive homeowner rescue pro-
gram will require incentives for lenders and,
probably, changes in law. And it will cost bil-
lions. But allowing these hurdles to stand in
the way will only condemn our economy to
the doldrums and too many families to
foreclosure for years to come.
Looming quagmire
Bennington (Vt.) Banner
I
t seems the United States is approaching
an urgent crossroads not unlike the
Revolutionary War era or the Civil War
years, or the period of the Great Depression.
By now, most Americans have the clear sense
that something big has to give before the coun-
try can move on and recover.
This is reected in the inability of the feder-
al government to move past the stark divisions
that have surfaced in recent years and intensi-
ed greatly over the past decade. Both sides
have managed at times to cling to enough
power to thwart the other side but never
acquire enough to move their own agenda for-
ward.
Today, the Tea Party on the right and the
Occupy Wall Street protesters on the left are
expressing overwhelming frustration with our
unresponsive, status-quo federal government
and the never-ending crises associated with a
sinking economy for most citizens and endless
debt that threatens our long-term prosperity
and national security.
Congress and the president, however, cant
come close to agreeing on any approach that
might actually have a nationwide effect. If the
Civil War scenario plays out again, we are
headed for a constitutional crisis perhaps a
violent one before someone wins and
someone loses, and the major issues of the day
are decided for the foreseeable future. Some
days, that looks more like the inevitable con-
clusion, which no one seems able or willing to
deect.
As a nation, we have always fared better
keeping stubborn philosophies out of the polit-
ical equation. Voters might consider whether a
candidate ts that immovable mold before
casting their next ballot. Rejecting philosophy
over pragmatism religiously, if you will
is something an individual can do, all on his or
her own. It might just work.

NEW YORK New signs of division
among European leaders over how to
handle the regions debt crisis led to con-
fusion on nancial markets Thursday.
Stock indexes rose, fell, rose back
again and then ended the day more or
less where they started. As they have
been doing for weeks now, traders
remain focused on the latest hope for a
resolution to Europes debt crisis: this
time, a weekend summit of European
leaders.
The Dow Jones industrial average
moved between gains and losses all day
before ending up 37.16 points, or 0.3
percent, to close at 11,541.78. The Dow
had been down as many as 113 points
shortly after noon. The Dow is 0.3 per-
cent below where it started the year, and
is headed for its rst down week after
three weeks of gains.
Trading was choppy as talks across the
Atlantic appeared to falter because of
differences between Germany and
France over how to protect European
banks from the consequences of a
default by the Greek government. Later
in the day stocks rose slightly on news
that a second summit meeting would
take place next week after it became
clear that France and Germany would
not be able to bridge their difference in
time for the meeting Sunday.
A messy default by Greece could lead
to deep losses for European banks that
hold Greek debt. If that leads them to
pull back on lending to each other, it
could cause another freeze in global
credit markets like the one in late 2008
after Lehman Brothers collapsed.
The Standard & Poors 500 index rose
5.51 points, or 0.5 percent, to 1,215.39.
The Nasdaq composite lost 5.42
points, or 0.2 percent, to 2,598.62.
U.S. Treasury prices also uctuated
sharply as the latest news from Europe
crossed, before ending about where they
were a day earlier. The yield on the 10-
year Treasury note was 2.18 percent late
Thursday compared with 2.16 percent
late Wednesday.
Stock indexes had edged higher in
early trading after the Federal Reserve
Bank of Philadelphia said regional man-
ufacturing was showing signs of recov-
ery. Its index of manufacturing, ship-
ments and new orders was far better than
economists had forecast. An unexpected
drop in the index spurred a stock market
sell-off in August.

BRUSSELS The eurozones efforts
to solve its escalating debt crisis plunged
into disarray Thursday, when Germany
and France called a second emergency
summit after it became clear that they
would not be able to bridge their differ-
ence in time for a rst crisis meeting
Sunday.
Sundays summit was supposed to
deliver a comprehensive plan to nally
get a grip on the currency unions debt
troubles by detailing new nancing for
debt-ridden Greece, a plan to make
Europes banks t to sustain worsening
market turbulence and a scheme to make
the eurozone bailout fund more power-
ful.
The announcement came from the
offices of French President Nicolas
Sarkozy and German Chancellor Angela
Merkel after it became clear that the cur-
recy unions two biggest countries could
not agree on the main points of the plan.
Both governments said that all ele-
ments of the eurozones crisis strategy
would be discussed on Sunday so it can
be denitively adopted by the Heads of
State and Government at a second meet-
ing Wednesday at the latest.
It also said that the two leaders would
meet Saturday afternoon ahead of the
summit in Brussels in the hope of mak-
ing progress.
Merkels spokesman Steffan Seibert
told journalists that further changes to
Europes bailout fund would require the
agreement of the Bundestag, the German
parliament.
A two-step summit allows for this to
take place, Seibert said.
Merkels address to parliament sched-
uled for Friday was cancelled, and
Seibert said it would take place next
week.
HPs chief strategy exec to retire
PALO ALTO Hewlett-Packard Co.s
chief strategy ofcer, Shane Robison, is
stepping down, one of the rst major
casualties at the technology giant under
new CEO Meg Whitman.
The 57-year-old, who has been with
HP for 11 years, will retire effective Nov.
1, the company said.
Robison also was chief technology of-
cer and a member of the companys exec-
utive council. HP said he was instrumen-
tal in steering the companys multibillion-
dollar research and development spend-
ing and has guided many of the compa-
nys largest acquisitions. HP said his role
will not continue. Whitman called
Robison a powerful innovator who had
a passion for research and develop-
ment, in a statement.
Microsofts fiscal 1Q
earnings hit analyst target
SAN FRANCISCO Microsofts
Windows franchise regained some of its
vigor during the companys latest quarter,
but that might not be enough to overcome
the perception that the worlds largest
software maker is being outmaneuvered
by nimble rivals whose fortunes arent
tied to the personal computer.
The results released Thursday were
highlighted by a 7 percent increase in rev-
enue that exceeded analyst estimates. The
gains for the July-September period
occurred throughout Microsofts product
lineup, which includes the ubiquitous
Windows operating system, widely used
programs such as Ofce, the Xbox 360
video game console and the Bing search
engine. The companys earnings for the
scal rst quarter rose 6 percent from last
year to match analyst projections.
Investors werent impressed. Microsoft
shares dipped 19 cents to $26.85 in
Thursdays extended trading.
Microsofts stock price has been held
back by worries that it isnt adapting
quickly enough as more people use
smartphones and computer tablets such
as Apples iPad instead of desktop and
laptop computers that run on the
Windows operating system.
Eurozone crisis efforts in disarray

BOSTON Investors have barely
had a chance to recover from a summer
of anxiety.
And now three congressional dead-
lines loom before the end of the year.
Each has the potential to trigger a new
round of market volatility:
Nov. 18: Lawmakers must approve
spending plans for the current scal year
or face a potential government shut-
down.
Nov. 23: A bipartisan decit-reduc-
tion supercommittee must make recom-
mendations to generate at least $1.2 tril-
lion in decit savings during the coming
decade.
Dec. 23: Congress must approve the
supercommittees package, or $1.2 tril-
lion in automatic reductions to defense
and many domestic programs would be
phased in starting in 2013.
Its bound to keep investors on edge,
particularly coming so soon after
months of political brinksmanship over
raising the governments debt ceiling. As
the year-end deadlines approach,
investors will try to gauge whether lead-
ers will agree on big steps to reduce the
$14 trillion-plus national debt, or fall
short. The continuing partisan tone in
Washington doesnt instill condence.
Its hard to know how to manage a
portfolio in such times. That true
whether youre trying to sock away
enough for a comfortable retirement, or
youre a pro like Erik Weisman.
Hes a bond mutual fund manager and
economist with MFS Investment
Management. Although based in Boston,
he keeps close watch on Washington,
where he spent ve years working for
the Treasury Department and
International Monetary Fund.
Weisman also tracks Europe, where
leaders are struggling to contain their
debt crisis. On Sunday, European leaders
will hold a summit to discuss how to
assist ailing banks, expand a bailout
fund, and reduce Greeces debt load.
As leaders in the U.S. and Europe
struggle with a mountain of debt,
Weisman worries that volatility will
escalate in the stock and bond markets
alike.
Debt deadlines could bring more volatility

The beginning of the Peninsula
Athletic League regular season has
had its fair share of surprises. Two
weeks in, and a couple of teams that
struggled through the preseason
schedule nd themselves undefeated
at the top of the standings.
One of those teams is Carlmont,
who went winless in their rst four
games, but after victories over San
Mateo and Mills, nd themselves all
alone atop the Lake Division.
I dont know if were hitting a
groove, said Carlmont coach Jason
Selli. Each week, were going out
there to try and get better. We go
back after every game, look at our
mistakes and try to improve upon
them.
The formula seems to working so
far for the Scots, but today might be
the day when we learn whether the
Scots are contenders or pretenders,
as they travel to Hillsdale to battle
the electric Knights in the Daily
Journal Game of the Week.
Kickoff for the Alameda de la
Pulgas rivals is scheduled for 3 p.m.
I looked at the Mills game and I
didnt feel like we played a very
good game, Selli said of the Scots
35-6 victory. Mills came prepared
for us and they did a good job. I
think looking at the game lm, our
guys saw that as well.
Its scary to think that 337 yards
rushing is an example of a subpar
Carlmont performance. For the sec-
ond week in a row, Carlmonts oppo-
nent had no answer for their strong
running game. The Scots were led

South City (1-1 PAL Ocean, 5-1
overall) at
Half Moon Bay (2-0, 3-3), 7 p.m.
The Warriors suffered their rst
loss of the season last week, falling
to Aragon 32-22. The Cougars
slipped past Menlo School, 26-21.
The 32 points represents the
most points South City has surren-
dered this season. The Warriors
managed over 300 yards of offense,
but turned the ball over four times.
RB Anthony Shkuratov rushed
for a game-high 109 yards and two
TDs on 23 carries. QB Brad Los
had a decent rst half, throwing for
75 yards on 6 of 11 passing. He was
off the mark in the second half,
however. While he threw for more
yards 82 he misred on 9 of
his nal 10 passes, throwing an
interception in the process. Half
Moon Bays win was its second
straight road victory. Cougars
RB Wes Walters has been on re the
last two weeks, having rushed for
424 yards and six TDs, including
179 yards and three TDs against
Menlo. While the Cougars
offense has gotten a lot of attention,
it was their defense that sealed the
win last week. Nate Seaton and Luis
Gonzalez pressured the Menlo QB
into an intentional grounding penal-
ty in the nal couple of minutes,
turning the ball back over to Half
Moon Bay to seal the win.
Aragon (1-1 PAL Ocean, 5-1
overall) at
Woodside (1-1, 4-1-1), 7 p.m.
The Dons rebounded from a
tough loss to Sequoia to hand South
City its rst loss of the season, 32-
22. The Wildcats stunned
Sequoia with two TDs in the nal
90-plus seconds to post a 42-35 win.
Aragon benefited from four
South City turnovers. The Dons had
scoring drives of 23, 53 and 27
yards. Their other scoring drives
were 70 and 66 yards. As a team,
the Dons rushed for 262 yards, led
by James Egans 84 yards and a TD
on seven carries. Woodside has
scored 40 points or more in its last
three games. Woodsides Gino

Most Valuable Player award, after

seven goals in the past eight games and
has scored the Earthquakes last ve
goals.
It means a lot, Wondolowski said.
I think this team is a good team, so to
get the MVP, it means a lot. You look
back and its a bit frustrating throughout
this year because we really did believe
we had a very good team and we
thought we should have done better. At

Half Moon Bay has had a strong
surng scene for decades. Now,
young surfers have a chance to repre-
sent their school on the coastside.
Half Moon Bay High School, along
with Cunha Middle School, are the
key members of the Half Moon Bay
Surf Club. While not technically afl-
iated with the schools, it nonetheless
represents both schools in the Core
Scholastic Surf League, which is
comprised of teams mostly from the
Santa Cruz area.
We represent the school, but were
afliated with the Coastside Boysand
Girls Club, said Half Moon Bay
coach Marty Phelps.
This weekend, the club is hosting a
contest involving teams from Aptos,
Harbor, Santa Cruz, Scotts Valley and
Soquel high schools, along with Half
Moon Bay. The high school contest is
Saturday beginning at 7 a.m., while
the middle school competition will go
off beginning Sunday morning.
Both contests will be held at the
Kelly Street break.
Dawn patrol. Thats when the
waves are best, said Phelps, who
coaches the high school-age team.
[Conditions] will be very mellow.
Two to 3-foot surf. These guys are so
light and nimble, what they can do on
a 3-foot wave, I would need a 6-foot
wave (to do).
The contests feature both team and
individual competitions in three dif-
ferent disciplines: shortboard, long-
board and body board. There will be
two, 15-minutes heats in the boys
shortboard competition, and one, 15-
minute heat in each of the following:
boys longboard, girls short and long-
board, and co-ed body boarding.
In the team competition, surfers
earn points based on their wave
scores. Each team will compete
against another in all disciplines. The
top three surfers from each heat will
then battle it out for the individual
title.
The Half Moon Bay Surf Club is in
its fth year of existence and is com-
prised of competition teams as well as
others who just are in the club to surf.
Between Half Moon Bay High and
Cunha Middle schools, Phelps esti-
mates there are 20 surfers and about
50, altogether, in the club.
[Wednesday] night, we had middle
school practice, and some of the high
school kids showed up. Just looking
out at the water, we had about 20 kids
surng three different peaks, Phelps
said. We have sixth and seventh
graders [who] are just tearing it up.
The high school team is led by
sophomore Konrad Wallace and jun-
ior Peter Lundgard.
(Wallace) probably trains harder
than any other kid Ive had. Im going
to look for him as a top performer in
longboard and shortboard, Phelps
said. (Lundgard) not only is a strong
surfer, hes a strong swimmer.
Combine the two and it makes him an
incredibly efcient surfer. Hes in it
mentally. Hes going to be a strong
player.
This year is a young team. Next
year, will be a different story.
Those who are chosen to participate
in the contest are pushed every week
in practice. Phelps said every Tuesday
the team will hold a mini-contest to
determine the surfers who will partic-
ipate in the contests.
Even though the club does not have
to adhere to the same academic
requirements as an interscholastic
team like players on a high school
football or baseball do, Phelps treats
the club like any high school team.
We break the (surfer) stereotype,
Phelps said. They have to maintain a
minimum grade point average. If they
have any derogatory reports on their
progress reports, they dont get to
surf. Period. Last year, at least half of
the team was on the honor roll.
Our goal is really, having grown
up as a surfer myself, is to really bring
surng as a shared, positive experi-
ence.
Phelps said the surf scene in Half
Moon Bay has remained steady over
the years. The biggest change hes
seen is that more and more parents are
supporting their surng kids more
aggressively than previous genera-
tions.
What youre seeing now is not just
kids going to the beach on their own.
You see moms and dads on the beach,
taking pictures or videoing their kids,
Phelps said. A large percentage (of
the parents) are surfers now. They see
it (surng) as more of a family experi-
ence.
Surf club to host contest

Konrad Wallace was involved
with the typical sports growing up
baseball and soccer were his
games of choice.
A few years
ago, however, a
friend intro-
duced him to
surng. Now, he
is a key member
of the Half
Moon Bay Surf
Club contest
team and cannot
imagine his life
without surng.
Ive made fast progress, said
Wallace, 15, who picked up the
sport only about three years ago.
Its kind of a cool thing to jump
into real fast. In other sports, it can
take you 15 years before you get
recognized. Its just great to get
good enough (this quickly) to be
recognized.
Its ironic it took a friend to get
Wallace into the water, considering
his dad Michael, is fully into surf-
ing.
I remember for a while in ele-
mentary school, he really wanted to
push us (my sister and me) into surf-
ing, Wallace said, adding he was
already entrenched in other more
traditional sports.
Once I gured out how fun surf-
ing was, baseball was long gone.
Like anyone trying something for
the rst time, Wallace struggled to
surf the rst few times he went out.
But he hung with it, worked hard
and is now constantly improving.
A quick study
These guys are so light and nimble, what they can do
on a 3-foot wave, I would need a 6-foot wave (to do).

Heyward-Bey putting in extra work
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ALAMEDA Darrius Heyward-Bey
was quick to introduce himself to new
Raiders teammate Carson Palmer and
was among a handful of wide receivers
who joined the quar-
terback for addition-
al throwing follow-
ing Palmers first
practice with
Oakland this week.
Call it an invest-
ment in the future
for the Raiders,
Palmer and
Heyward-Bey.
With Jason
Campbell possibly done for the year due
to a fractured collarbone, Heyward-Bey
is trying to get comfortable with the
player many expect to take over as
Oaklands starter.
That could take some time considering
Palmer hasnt played in a game since the
end of last season and was sitting at
home unofcially retired when he was
traded to the Raiders by the Cincinnati
Bengals on Tuesday.
Heyward-Bey, the No. 7 overall pick
in the 2009 draft, is trying to expedite
the process.
It was very important, Heyward-Bey
said Thursday. He wants to throw, we
need to throw, we need to get the chem-
istry going so we stayed after. We stayed
after with Jason, we stayed after with
Kyle (Boller) so we stayed after with
Carson just to get better.
Two days after acquiring Palmer from
the Bengals in exchange for a rst-round
pick in 2012 and a second-rounder in
2013 that could become another rst,
coach Hue Jackson continued to deect
questions about who his starter will be.
Palmer, Boller and Terrelle Pryor con-
tinued to share reps in practice, though
in likelihood the decision will come
down to Boller or Palmer.
I aint telling anybody anything so
you guys can all stop (asking) now,
Jackson said. Everybodys an option. I
mean, I could use Jacoby Ford back
there if I had to. We have all kinds of dif-
ferent packages we could use. Anything
and everything is up and available right
now.
That list wont include Heyward-Bey.
Following two mostly disappointing sea-
sons, Oaklands rst-round pick in the
2009 draft is off to the best start of his
career and is more concerned with
catching passes than throwing them.
Heyward-Bey leads the Raiders in
receptions, is among the NFLs leaders
in receiving average and is on pace to
have the most catches by an Oakland
wide receiver since 2006.
He had a career-best seven catches for
99 yards and a touchdown in the
Raiders win over Houston two weeks
ago then followed it up with a six-catch,
91-yard day in a 24-17 victory over
Cleveland last Sunday.
Thats a monumental step for a receiv-
er who had just 35 career receptions
coming into the year.
Heyward-Beys 22 catches are nine
more than any other receiver on
Oaklands roster, while his 15.7 per-
catch average is 10th overall in the NFL
among players with 20 receptions or
more.
I dont look at it like, Oh, Im more
comfortable, its crazy, I feel different,
Heyward-Bey said. I just go out there
and do what Im supposed to. Im hav-
ing fun out there in practice and then it
transitions over to the game. Im not
making a big deal out of it.
Notes: Kicker Sebastian Janikowski
has a sore left hamstring. ... The Raiders
were granted an extension by the NFL to
sell out Sundays game against Kansas
City. Oakland has sold out three consec-
utive home games for the rst time since
2008.

Crabtree finally home in Texas
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO Michael
Crabtree made it home to Texas on
Thursday for the rest of the 49ers bye
week.
After a short delay, that is. The wide
receiver tweeted that he was pulled over
Wednesday on Interstate 280 while en
route to the airport and missed his ight.
He said the ofcer kept him for 30
minutes and then fessed up to being a
fan of the Oakland Raiders, not
Crabtrees Niners.
Just got pull over on highway 280 on
my way to the airport. Police kept me for
30 mins, he tweeted, then followed up
with, Then told me he was a raiders fan
and didnt like the niners!! Made me
miss my ight!
But all was well a day later for the
player long deemed a diva.
Crabtree tweeted Thursday: Back in
Dallas, about to chill with my fam and
get me some good BBQ.
The 24-year-old Crabtree had hoped
to catch a game by his alma mater, Texas
Tech, but the Red Raiders are on the
road this weekend. The 10th overall
draft pick in 2009, Crabtree has 20
receptions for 209 yards and no touch-
downs this season for San Francisco (5-
1).
Crabtree, who has missed training
camp in each of his three NFL seasons,
has been nursing injuries to his feet but
is coming off his best game of 2011. He
had nine catches for 77 yards in a 25-19
comeback road win over previously
unbeaten Detroit last Sunday.
Nine catches, 77 yards and great
catches. Great, 8-yard catches at times,
coach Jim Harbaugh said. Michael has
been doing that all year. Blocking
extremely well again in this game. He
was a game-ball worthy guy in this
game. Continues to just make the spec-
tacular catch that keeps drives alive, gets
rst downs, converts on third down.
Goodell tells congressmen of HGH plans
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. NFL
Commissioner Roger Goodell sent a let-
ter Thursday to lead-
ers of a congression-
al committee outlin-
ing the leagues
plans for collecting
and saving blood
samples of players in
hopes of eventually
testing for human
growth hormone.
In the letter to
California Rep.
Darrell Issa and Maryland Rep. Elijah
Cummings of the House Committee on
Oversight and Government Control,
Goodell said specimens would not be
analyzed and players would not be sub-
ject to disciplinary proceedings until
remaining issues about the testing regi-
men are resolved. Until that time, blood
samples would be stored.
The NFL and the players agreed to
begin blood testing for HGH as part of
their new collective bargaining agree-
ment reached in late July but only if
the union agreed to the methods, which
it has yet to do. The league was ready to
begin collection next week, but on
Tuesday, the union told the NFL to hold
off.
In the letter obtained by The
Associated Press, Goodell told the con-
gressmen that members of USADA, the
U.S. anti-doping agency, would be
available to meet with the players and
NFLPA ofcials to review information
on testing and the underlying science.
Goodell said the meeting is to occur
within two weeks.
Goodell also wrote that a mutually
acceptable third party would meet with
WADA, the world anti-doping agency,
and USADA to review the science
underlying the HGH tests. He promised
to work with the players to develop
appeal procedures and emphasized it
was the players who proposed random
drug testing for HGH and mandatory
suspensions for players who test posi-
tive.

Concussion
saga moves
to litigation
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
After congressional hearings, increased media attention and
revised rules, the NFLs concussion saga has entered its next
phase: litigation.
More than 125 former pro football players are suing the
league and, in most cases, helmet-maker Riddell via at
least ve complaints brought in state or federal courts over the
past few months and as recently as last week. They say the
NFL should have done more to warn about the dangers of head
injuries and should do more to help retired players.
Weve moved on from a debate about whether or not its
really a problem its clear it is to the next question: What
do we do about it? said Richard Lewis, a lawyer representing
players in a class-action suit led in California state court.
There also are at least three personal-injury cases against the
NFL pending in California, along with a case led in U.S.
District Court in Pennsylvania. Theyre believed to be the rst
examples of former players joining together to le concussion-
related lawsuits against the NFL. Many players wives also are
plaintiffs.
We have three goals. One is to make necessary changes so
that others playing this game dont go the same way. The sec-
ond goal is to set up a medical process so these people can
have medical attention for this injury as long as they need it.
And the third goal is to get compensation, said Thomas
Girardi, who is representing several dozen former players in
two of the personal-injury complaints. Some of these people
are unable to work in a work setting because of their inability
to understand common concepts.
The NFLs stance, as explained by outside counsel Brad
Karp in a telephone interview, essentially focuses on these
ideas:
players knew there were risks of injury when they decid-
ed to play football;
there was no misconduct or liability on the part of the
NFL;
any such claims should be addressed via arbitration, as
outlined in the collective bargaining agreement between the
NFL and the players union, not in court an argument made
in a ling by the league to shift cases from state to federal
court.
The NFL has long made player safety a priority. It is con-
tinuing to make player safety a priority. And the NFL is not
legally responsible for the medical difculties that some play-
ers now are facing, said Karp, whose law rm, Paul, Weiss,
Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison, has represented the league in
various matters for 20 or so years.
Head injuries, including concussions and the possible
effects of concussions, have long been known risks of playing
football, Karp added. Players have known about the risks of
playing football, they have chosen to play football notwith-
standing those risks, and in so doing, have assumed those risks
and all of their possible consequences.

but it was huge, said Ian Kinsler, whose sin-
gle and steal set up the comeback.
In a city excited by a Rally Squirrel, it was
Groundhog Day almost.
For the second straight night, Cardinals
pinch-hitter Allen Craig greeted reliever Alexi
Ogando with a go-ahead single. This time,
Craig did it the seventh. In Game 1, his hit in
the sixth sent the Cards to a 3-2 win.
Said Cardinals manager Tony La Russa: It
was almost a great story for us, turned out to
be a greater one for them.
Now, after a travel day, Texas will host
Game 3 on Saturday night. Matt Harrison is
set to start for the Rangers against Kyle Lohse.
It would have been hard, Hamilton said of
possibly facing being 0-2. We would have
been comfortable going back to our place,
having three games. Theyre just like we are,
never say die, til the last out is made. It makes
it fun.
Texas has not lost two straight games since
Aug. 23-25. They sure waited a while to save
themselves on this night that began as duel
between starters Colby Lewis and the
Cardinals Jaime Garcia.
Kinsler opened the ninth with a bloop single
against closer Jason Motte. Next up was Elvis
Andrus, whose tremendous play at shortstop
kept the game scoreless much earlier. Kinsler,
though, wasnt about to wait he stole sec-
ond, sliding in just ahead of Yadier Molinas
excellent throw.
Andrus followed with a single to center,
sending Kinsler to third. And when the relay
throw got away for a moment, Andrus scam-
pered to second.
La Russa, whos been making all the right
moves this October, brought in lefty Arthur
Rhodes to face Hamilton. But the slumping
slugger, slowed throughout the postseason by
a groin injury, hit a solid y ball that scored
Kinsler and moved Andrus to third.
La Russa went to his bullpen again, bringing
in Lance Lynn to face Young. The steady
Texas veteran did his job, lofting a y ball that
sent Andrus scampering home.
Then it was Rangers manager Ron
Washingtons turn. He signaled for closer
Neftali Feliz, who worked around a leadoff
walk to earn the save. Mike Adams got the
win.
The Cardinals broke through against Lewis
in the seventh when David Freese singled with
one out and took third on Nick Puntos two-
out single. La Russa pulled Garcia and put up
Craig, who was injured for most of the season.
Washington then went to Ogando. After a
rst-pitch foul, Craig lined a 96 mph heater
over Kinsler at second base for the go-ahead
run.
Up through the ninth, the Texas hitters were
ailing.
Hamilton, the reigning AL MVP seemed to
be wearing down with every swing in his rst
three at-bats.
Hamilton shattered his bat the rst time up
and slowly jogged to rst base. Later, he
weakly waved and appeared overmatched as
he struck out on three pitches. That left him
with an 0-for-16 Series slump dating to last
October.
Hamiltons teammates were equally feeble.
Maybe it was because none of the Texas
starters had ever faced Garcia, maybe it was
carryover from the stress that began in last
years World Series wipeout against San
Francisco.
The acrobatic Andrus made a sensational
play in the fth to keep the game scoreless.
After a two-out single by Punto and a walk
to the light-hitting Garcia, Rafael Furcal
slapped a hard grounder up the middle.
Andrus dived to his left to stop it on the edge
of the outeld grass, got to his knees and
ipped the ball with his glove about 25 feet to
second baseman Kinsler, who barely beat
Garcia to the bag for a forceout.
Texas batters, meanwhile, couldnt catch up
with Garcia.
Their hardest hit early in the game came in
the fourth rather, it was the hardest a Texas
player got hit.
Kinsler was at third base when Adrian
Beltre sent a solid, one-hopper down the line.
The foul ball nailed a ducking Kinsler in the
right shoulder, and he grinned while playfully
rubbing it off. No smiling, though, when
Beltre took a poor cut at a low pitch and struck
out to strand runners at the corners.
Garcia and Lewis dominated at the outset,
and no one got a hit until Furcal doubled with
two outs in the St. Louis third. Before that, the
closest anyone came was Jon Jay, whose bunt
danced along the third base line chalk before
trickling foul.
Perhaps both sides could have used some
hitting tips from Stan Musial. A month shy of
his 91st birthday, Stan the Man was sitting in
a Busch suite. The Cardinals Hall of Famer
was shown on the video board and drew a big
cheer.
NOTES: Garcia was the rst Mexican-born
starter in the World Series since Fernando
Valenzuela in 1981. ... The Cardinals hit into
the most double plays in the majors this year,
Texas was second. ... Rangers president Nolan
Ryan, before the game, on why he thought
Texas would win in six games: When I
looked at St. Louis pitching, I dont look at
their pitching like a (Detroit ace Justin)
Verlander, where you say boy, Verlander is
on, were going to hope that something good
has to happen. Im not downplaying the
Cardinals pitching by any means.

WBC gives light heavyweight
belt back to Hopkins
PHILADELPHIA The WBC has returned
the light heavyweight championship to Bernard
Hopkins after declaring his bout with Chad
Dawson a technical draw.
Hopkins was stopped for the rst time in his
career Saturday night in bizarre fashion when
Dawson lifted him and tossed him to the canvas
late in the second round, leaving the 46-year-old
champion with a dislocated joint in his shoulder.
Dawson claimed the WBC light heavyweight
title from Hopkins on a second-round TKO in
Los Angeles.
The WBC reviewed video of the ght and
unanimously declared Thursday that the action
reects a clear intentional lifting the body fol-
lowed with a push by Dawson to Hopkins that
made him fall on his left side with part of his
body out of the ropes.
Hopkins injury also was taken into consider-
ation.
The WBC also considered Dawsons foul vio-
lated the rule that was against any rough tactics
other than clean punches.
Liverpool owner says
no truth to relegation report
BOSTON Liverpool owner John Henry,
who also owns baseballs Boston Red Sox, denied
on Thursday that foreign owners in the English
Premier League want to end the relegation and
promotion system.
Richard Bevan, the chief executive of the
League ManagersAssociation, said this week that
some of the American and Asian owners of
Premier League teams have been talking about
scrapping the system that sends the bottom three
teams to the second-tier Champions League.
But Henry called that complete nonsense,
telling The Associated Press it hasnt been dis-
cussed.
Half of the Premier Leagues 20 teams are for-
eign-owned. Arsenal, Aston Villa, Liverpool,
Manchester United and Sunderland are owned by
Americans, while Blackburn is under Indian own-
ership and Queens Park Rangers has Malaysian
backers.
American sports leagues dont follow the
European model that relegates the bottom teams in
the standings and promotes the top teams from the
minor leagues. Bevan warned that, if more teams
are sold to overseas investors, they could force a
change in the longstanding rules.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK Three days and
30 hours worth of talks ended on a
nasty note Thursday in NBA labor
negotiations. And only one thing
seemed fairly certain: more games
were likely to be cut. Possibly even
the season.
Players insist thats the outcome
owners wanted all along preor-
dained, as union executive director
Billy Hunter said.
Weve always felt there was still
a place where they would just not go
and they would lock us out as long
as it would take in order to get us
beyond that place. There was never
really a willingness to negotiate
beyond certain points, union presi-
dent Derek Fisher of the Lakers
said. There was just a line drawn,
and regardless of whats going on,
how many times we meet, Were
not going past that.
After 30 hours of negotiations
before a federal mediator, the sides
remained divided over two main
issues the division of revenues
and the structure of the salary cap
system.
We understand the ramications
of where we are, Deputy
Commissioner Adam Silver said.
Were saddened on behalf of the
game.
Without a deal, NBA
Commissioner David Stern, who
missed Thursdays session with the
flu, almost certainly will decide
more games must be dropped.
The season was supposed to begin
Nov. 1, but all games through Nov.
14 100 in total already have
been scrapped, costing players
about $170 million in salaries.
Stern said previously that games
through Christmas were in jeopardy
without a deal this week. Silver said
the labor committee would speak
with Stern on Friday about the
future schedule, though no further
cancellations are expected yet.
Silver said he was a little more
optimistic than usual going into the
talks, but the union later accused
him of lying, with Hunter saying:
They knew when they presented
what they were presenting to us that
it wasnt going to y.
The union said owners essentially
gave it an ultimatum to accept a 50-
50 split of revenues. Attorney
Jeffrey Kessler said the meeting was
hijacked.
We were shocked, he said. We
went in there trying to negotiate and
they came in and they said you
either accept 50-50 or were done
and we wont discuss anything
else.
Both sides praised federal media-
tor George Cohen and said they felt
there was some progress on minor
issues at the start of the talks. But it
was clear by the time talks broke
down that there were bad feelings.
Weve spent the last few days
making our best effort to try and
nd a resolution here. Not one that
was necessarily a win-win. It
wouldnt be a win for us. It would-
nt be a win for them. But one that
we felt like would get our game
back ... and get our guys back on the
court, get our vendors back to work,
get the arenas open, get these com-
munities revitalized, Fisher said.
And in our opinion, thats not
what the NBA and the league is
interested in at this point. Theyre
interested in telling you one side of
the stories that are not true and this
is very serious to us. This is not in
any way about ego. There are a lot
of peoples livelihoods at stake sep-
arate from us.
Hunter said the union made con-
cession after concession after con-
cession ... and its just not enough.
Were not prepared to let them
impose a system on us that elimi-
nates guarantees, reduces contract
lengths, diminishes all our increas-
es, he said. Were saying no way.
We fought too long and made too
many sacrices to get where we
are.
Previously each side had pro-
posed receiving 53 percent of bas-
ketball-related income after players
were guaranteed 57 percent under
the previous collective bargaining
agreement.
Silver said the league formally
proposed a 50-50 revenue split
Wednesday. The union said its pro-
posal would have been a band that
would have allowed it to collect as
much as 53 percent but no less than
50, based on the leagues revenues.
Hopefully, we can get back to
the table, but certainly a tough day,
a very tough day, said Peter Holt,
the labor relations committee chair
and owner of the San Antonio
Spurs.
Asked whether the players would
drop to 50 percent, Holt said he did-
nt think it was that big of a jump
but that the union did.
He said the league would not go
above 50 percent as of today. But
never say never on anything.
Hunter said Cleveland owner Dan
Gilbert told players to trust that if
they took the 50-50 split, the salary
cap issues could be worked out.
Hunters response?
I cant trust your gut. I got to
trust my own gut, he said. Theres
no way in the world Im going to
trust your gut on whether or not
youre going to be open and
amenable to making the changes in
the system that we think are neces-
sary and appropriate.
Owners and players met with
Cohen for 16 hours Tuesday, ending
around 2 a.m. Wednesday, then
returned just eight hours later and
spent another 8 1/2 hours in discus-
sions. The sides then met for about
ve hours Thursday, before calling
it quits.
Am I worried about the season,
per se? Yeah. But Im more so wor-
ried about us standing up for what
we believe in, New Orleans
Hornets guard Jarrett Jack said. I
think thats the bigger issue at
hand.
Cohen didnt recommend that the
two sides continue the mediation
process as they werent able to
resolve the strongly held, compet-
ing positions that separated them on
core issues.
Though the sides have said they
believe bargaining is the only route
to a deal, the process could end up
in the courts. Each brought an unfair
labor practice charge against the
other with the National Labor
Relations Board, and the league also
led a federal lawsuit against the
union attempting to block it from
decertifying.
Union ofcials, so far, have been
opposed to decertication, a route
the NFL players initially chose dur-
ing their lockout.
However, Hunter said Thursday
that all of our options are on the
table. Everything.
NBA labor talks turn nasty
By Doug Feinberg
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK UConn coach
Geno Auriemma thinks that the Big
East conferences realignment issues
could have been solved years ago
with one simple move Notre
Dames football team joining the
league.
Theyve been in our league 17
years, so how long are we going to
date before we just decide this aint
working. And Im not happy about
it, Auriemma said at the confer-
ences annual womens basketball
media day Thursday. Thats not the
opinion of the University of
Connecticut, the Big East
Conference. ... Thats just Geno
Auriemmas opinion.
The Irish, whose womens basket-
ball team is picked rst in the confer-
ences preseason poll, have had all
their sports in the Big East with the
exception of football which has
remained independent.
Last month, Syracuse and
Pittsburgh announced they were leav-
ing the Big East to join the Atlantic
Coast Conference. Commissioner
John Marinatto said the Big East is
trying to become a 12-team football
league. He reiterated on Thursday
that the two schools, which are con-
tractually bound to the league for the
next two seasons, will not be allowed
out early.
If Notre Dame had come in as a
football and basketball school when
they came in, we wouldnt have a
problem. Miami wouldnt have left.
Virginia Tech wouldnt have left.
Boston College wouldnt have left.
We probably wouldnt have any of
these issues, would we? Auriemma
said.
The conferences plan to get to 12
members includes Navy, Air Force
and Boise State as football-only
members and Central Florida,
Houston and SMU for all sports,
though that has not been made public
by the league.
The remaining football members
are Connecticut, Cincinnati, South
Florida, Louisville, West Virginia and
Rutgers.
A Notre Dame spokesman declined
to comment on Auriemmas remarks.
Weve got one school that holds
the future of our league in the palm of
their hand and theyre not really that
concerned about it, the UConn
coach said. Theyre looking out for
their best interest and I dont blame
them. But join us in football and then
look out for your best interest. I
applaud that. Every school has a right
to do that. I just dont like the way
weve gone about it.
While the Big East was built on
basketball, Auriemma knows that
expansion and conference realign-
ment has always been driven by foot-
ball.
It doesnt matter what we think
because every decision being made is
being made from a football stand-
point, he said.
Auriemma blames Notre Dame for realignment issues

Concilla, who gained 160 yards on 20 carries.
Senior Marquise Harris gained 86 yards on 18
carries and Joe Lasala carried the ball for 47 on
nine carries.
Their offensive performance came a week
after Carlmont put up 330 yards rushing on San
Mateo in a 21-12 win. But even at 2-0, Selli said
his Scots continue with a business-like mentali-
ty.
I dont think this team has a false sense of
condence, Selli said. But I dont think we
lack condence. Our personality hasnt
changed. I think we understood what we were
getting into at the start of the season. Our guys
are just trying to improve each week and hoping
that at the end of the day we can compete at a
high level.
Theyll be put to the test defensively this week
against Hillsdale, who comes in averaging 26
points per game, good for second in the division.
Last week against San Mateo, the Knights had
an explosive rst half of football that gave them
a three-touchdown cushion which they rode to a
42-33 win. The 42 points was a season-high for
the Knights, who rebounded nicely after a 33-14
opening-night loss to El Camino.
Hillsdale is an excellent football team with
athletes across the board, at every position, Selli
said. Theyre well coached. When you play a
team as good as Hillsdale, with all their athletes,
you have to look at what youre doing, execute
your offense and defense the best way you can.
With their spread offense, the Knights present
a lot of challenges to any opposing defense.
Theyre led, of course, by running back Damien
Carter, who returned from an ankle injury last
week and rushed for 178 yards on 23 carries. He
also caught two passes for 51 yards in the rst
half for 229 total yards on the night.
But Hillsdale doesnt lack for other weapons.
Quarterback Yannis Tsagarakis is having a ne
season, throwing the ball accurately and picking
up big yards with his legs. And on the outside,
tight end Josefa Vuatalevu has become a solid
target for Tsagarakis.
Theyre all equally dangerous at what they
do, Selli said. So we cant key in on just one
thing. They have fast receivers, a quarterback
that is accurate and does a good job of the run-
ning the ball. Theyre a balanced team.
With such balance, Carlmonts defense will be
the key. In their four losses this season, the Scots
have surrendered an average of 33 points.
Theyve turned that around in their two wins,
allowing only an average of nine.
A win today against Hillsdale, and the Scots
assure themselves of a winning record in the
league season. Selli knows that in the Lake,
every game is huge.
In the situation were in, where there is one
playoff berth up for grabs, I think every single
game we play is big, he said. Every game you
play is a playoff game. You dont have the luxu-
ry of not approaching every game like its the
playoffs. So thats what Ive been trying to con-
vey to them. You have to prepare for anything
because Hillsdale is going to come out to win
the game. You have to approach it with the men-
tality that theyre all big games.

When I rst started out, there was a time I
didnt want to do this anymore and I stopped
for a while, Wallace said. But for an entire
summer, I worked really hard (on my surng).
Im just really glad I took that summer to
focus on getting better.
While surng is entering a realm of tricks
above the water where surfers will do
skateboard-style aerial maneuvers Wallace
likes to think of his style as more old-school,
when the style was more about carving on the
wave. Plus, his build about 6-feet tall is
not real conducive to tricks above the lip.
I can do 360s, oaters, cutbacks. Ive been
working on aerials more lately, but I like the
power style of surng, Wallace said.
Wallace said he would one day like to take
on Mavericks, but he realizes he is years away
from attempting one of the biggest, most dan-
gerous waves in the world. Right now, hes
focusing on this weekends season-opening
contest.
Its the rst contest of the season. Were
just dusting the cobwebs off, getting ready,
Wallace said. I try to get out every day. If not
every day, its probably every other day.

Serra (2-1 WCAL,5-1 overall) at
Riordan (0-3,1-5),1 p.m.Saturday
The Padres suffered their rst defeat of the sea-
son, dropping a 35-28 decision to Mitty. the
Crusaders were hammered by Bellarmine, 56-0.
For the second week in a row, Serra eclipsed
the 400-yard mark on the ground, rushing for 469
yards on a season-high 58 carries. The 35
points allowed were the most the Padres have
given up this season. Padres RB Erich Wilson
had his second-straight 200-plus yard rushing per-
formance, nishing with a season-high 248 yards
and three TDs on 26 carries. He is two yards shy
of the 1,000-yard mark and has 17 TDs on the sea-
son. Riordan managed just 109 yards of total
offense against the Bells. QB Zach Masoli is
averaging 133 yards passing per game and has
thrown seven TDs against just one interception.
Masoli is not getting a lot of ground support, how-
ever, as the Crusaders are averaging less than 60
yards rushing per game.
Capuchino (1-0 PAL Lake,3-3 overall) at San
Mateo (0-2,0-5-1),3 p.m.
The Mustangs opened Lake Division play last
week with an impressive 26-7 win over visiting El
Camino. The Bearcats fell to Hillsdale, 42-33.
Although Capuchino is 1-1 in its last two
games, the defense has played well for three
halves. The Mustangs held Aragon to just 103
yards in the rst half of Caps 24-0 loss three
weeks ago. Against El Camino last week, the
Mustangs put it all together. They held the Colts to
a single rst-quarter TD and just 195 total yards.
Mustangs RB Justin Ewing was a workhorse,
rushing for 205 yards and three TDs on 42 carries.
The San Mateo offense leads the Lake Division
in points scored per game at 26.8. Unfortunately,
the Bearcats defense is allowing a division worse
39.6. The Bearcats racked up 398 yards of
offense last week. A week after being held to
just 40 yards rushing, San Mateo RB Michael
Latu picked up his fourth 100-plus yard rushing
game, nishing with 137 yards and three TDs on
just 12 carries. QB Trevor Brill also had a big
game for the Bearcats, throwing for 247 yards.
Jefferson (0-1 PAL Bay, 1-5 overall) at
Menlo-Atherton (2-0, 4-2), 7 p.m.
The Indians put up a ght against Terra Nova
before falling 27-10. The Bears mauled Kings
Academy, 56-21. Jefferson trailed the Tigers
13-3 at halftime, but closed to 13-10 in the third
quarter before Terra Nova pulled away with two
TDs in the fourth quarter. The Indians defense
held Terra Nova to less than 300 yards of total
offense. Jeffersons offense actually out-gained
the Tigers with 259 yards of total offense.
Jefferson is averaging just over 15 points per game
in league play, which is actually an improvement
over its overall season output of 10 points per
game. M-A scored 28 points in the rst quarter
and cruised to the win over Kings Academy.
The Bears are averaging 42 points per game in
their last three contests, all wins. RB Taylor
Mashack scored three TDs (two rushing, one
receiving), while QB Willy Fonua threw three
TDs and 230 yards on just ve completions.
El Camino (1-1 PAL Lake,3-3 overall) at Mills
(0-1,1-5),7 p.m.
The Colts were beaten 26-7 by Capuchino last
week. The Vikings fell to Carlmont, 35-6. El
Camino was paced by RB D.J. Peluso, who
gained 180 of the Colts 195 yards of offense.
Peluso nished with 114 yards and his teams only
TD on 15 carries. He also caught two passes for 66
yards. After scoring 39 points through its rst
four games, Mills has scored only 13 in its last
three games.
Terra Nova (2-0 PAL Bay, 4-2 overall) at
Burlingame (0-2,2-4),8 p.m.
The Tigers topped Jefferson last week, 27-10.
The Panthers suffered a heartbreaking 18-15
loss to Sacred Heart Prep. Although he didnt
throw for a ton of yards, Terra Nova QB Chris
Forbes had his most efcient game of the year,
completing 15 of 19 passes for 229 yards and
three TDs. He connected on nearly 79 percent of
his passes. The Tigers rushing attack, which
was averaging 181 yards over their last four
games, was held to just 57 against Jefferson, the
Tigers second-lowest output of the season.
Burlingame has now lost three in a row. Its the
second time in three games the Panthers have lost
in the nal minutes. RB Daidyn Stewart had
another strong outing, rushing for 95 yards on 21
carries. He rushed for 105 yards the previous week
against M-A.

NATHAN MOLLAT / DAILY JOURNAL
El Camino running back D.J. Peluso accounted for 180 of his teams 195 yards of offense in
the Colts 26-7 loss toCap last week.
some injuries that continued to pop up on us.
But something that I am proud of is that it is a
great group of guys and individuals, and its fun to
be a part of this team. I commend all of them for
not giving up. We fought on every game and to be
honest, the last two, three months, weve played
some of the best soccer at the end. It just happens
to be too little, too late.
This year Wondolowski became just the ninth
player in league history to score at least 15 goals
in consecutive seasons. His 15 goals this year also
place him in a tie for No. 2 in team history for
goals in a single season, trailing only his total from
a season ago. He recently surpassed Landon
Donovan to become the second all-time leading
scorer in team history with 36 goals for San Jose.
The season was huge for Wondolowski consid-
ering that many believe his 2010 was a bit of a
uke, given that he had a total of 11 careers goals
in six previous season.
But the striker answered all the naysayers in
2011.
It means a lot, he said. It just helped reassure
that Im the player that I believe I am. Its a good
feeling. A lot of credit goes to my teammates, I
think they had a lot to do with it. A lot of the goals
were one-touch or two-touch goals where they
gave great passes and could nd me in the box.
It just comes down to, Im a very competitive
person; I think our whole team is. So, every game
we knew it was a battle.
Wondolowski was named the Humanitarian of
the Year for his efforts in the community. He
became the National Ambassador for Street
Soccer USA and he serves as the lead spokesman
for SSUSAs efforts to rehabilitate the homeless.
In addition to his duties with Street Soccer USA,
he made numerous appearances around the Bay
Area and served as a spokesman for the Get
Earthquakes Fit program and the Amway Kicks
for Kids program.
I grew up in this community. I was one of them
and I still feel like I am a part of this community,
Wondolowski said, who grew up in Danville and
went to De La Salle High School in Concord.
And I know Ill be here even after my career is
over, so its just nice to be involved with them, and
to be honest, I really do believe that it is a great
community and there are a lot of good people
there.
Also winning a second straight award was
Earthquakes goalkeeper Jon Busch, who took
home the Defensive Player of the Year award.
Busch started and played 90 minutes in all but
one match this season and sits in second place in
saves in the league with 110. He posted seven
shutouts this season for San Jose and ranked sev-
enth in MLS in save percentage (71.0).
Hes meant a whole lot to the team,
Wondolowski said of his keeper. Hes kind of the
heart of the team. He comes every game and every
day at practice and works his tail off. Hes kept us
in so many games. I just feel bad that we couldnt
help him out even more because hes done very
well and sometimes the stats dont show how well
hes played. Hes probably been one of the best
goalkeepers day-in and day-out for the saves that
hes made.

LOCAL SCOREBOARD
Akron coach to lead U.S. Under-23 team
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO U.S. Soccer has picked
Caleb Porter to coach the Under-23 mens
national team that will try to qualify for the
2012 London Olympics.
Porter currently is head coach at college
powerhouse Akron, and will continue in that
role while coaching the U.S. team.
I am honored and feel extremely privi-
leged to be given this once in a lifetime
opportunity, Porter said. Im eager to start
the process of putting the pieces together in
preparation for Olympic qualifying in
March.
The U.S. federation also chose former
World Cup player Tab Ramos to coach the
Under-20 mens national team.
Porter led Akron to an NCAA Division I
championship in 2010 and has a 90-13-10
record in his first five seasons. He has
recruited and developed 12 players at Akron
who have been drafted into Major League
Soccer in the last five years, including the
2009 No. 1 overall pick Steve Zakuani, No. 4
overall pick Teal Bunbury in 2010 and No. 2
overall pick Darlington Nagbe in 2011.
Five of the top eight picks in last years
MLS draft were from Akron.
We are excited to have Caleb join our
national team program, U.S. Soccer presi-
dent Sunil Gulati said. Still early in his
career, Caleb has been extremely successful
and has demonstrated the ability to mentor
and develop young players. A proven winner,
we believe he will do a great job of leading
our Under-23 mens national team as they
look to qualify for the Olympic Games next
summer.
Porter has contributed to the U.S. Soccer
youth national teams as an Under-18 assis-
tant coach and as a scout. Porter played in
college at Indiana and briefly in MLS but
retired after a knee injury.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ISLAMABAD, Pakistan The Obama
administration delivered a blunt warning
Thursday that the United States will do what
it must to go after militants in Pakistan and
Afghanistan, whether Pakistan helps or not.
U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham
Clinton led an unusually large U.S. delegation
for two days of talks with civilian and military
leaders who have resisted previous U.S.
demands to take a harder tack against mili-
tants who attack American soldiers and inter-
ests in Afghanistan.
The large U.S. contingent was meant to dis-
play unity among the various U.S. agencies,
including the CIA, Pentagon and State
Department, with an interest in Pakistan. CIA
chief David Petraeus and Joint Chiefs of Staff
Chairman Gen. Martin Dempsey joined
Clinton, who said the team would push
Pakistan very hard.
There were cordial handshakes and greet-
ings among the large U.S. and Pakistani
delegation gathered at the office of Prime
Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani as the first of
two evening meetings began. Pakistans
foreign minister, Army chief and intelli-
gence head were expected to see their U.S.
counterparts Thursday.
Clinton arrived in Islamabad from
Afghanistan, where she told Pakistan it must
be part of the solution to the Afghan conict.
She said the U.S. expects the Pakistani gov-
ernment, military and intelligence services to
take the lead in ghting Pakistan-based mili-
tants and also in encouraging Afghan mili-
tants to reconcile.
Our message is very clear, Clinton said.
Were going to be ghting, we are going to
be talking and we are going to be building ...
and they can either be helping or hindering,
but we are not going to stop.
The meetings focused on the recurrent U.S.
demand that Pakistan launch its own offensive
against a lethal Taliban afliate known as the
Haqqani network. It operates on both sides of
the Afghanistan-Pakistan border; U.S. of-
cials claim Pakistan either tolerates or sup-
ports the groups activities.
A senior U.S. ofcial said Thursdays four
hours of meetings were extremely frank and
very detailed but declined to offer details.
In a statement, Gilanis ofce said the dis-
cussion was cordial and frank. But it also
suggested Pakistan was unhappy with the
message push by recalling statements denying
U.S. allegations of links between Pakistan and
militants.
In Pakistan, Clinton seeks strong anti-terror push
man of the California Air Resources Board.
The reason we have not succeeded in
addressing our addiction to petroleum is
because we did not have the right set of poli-
cy tools, Nichols said. Now we do. Cap-
and-trade provides a reward for doing the
right thing.
The board voted unanimously to approve
the nal draft of its plan, a key part of the
states landmark 2006 global warming law,
AB 32, which seeks to reduce the emissions to
1990 levels by 2020.
Some businesses regulated under the pro-
gram argue it will increase the price of elec-
tricity for consumers and hurt job creation by
raising the cost of doing business in the state.
But the programs supporters expect cap-and-
trade to spur economic recovery and innova-
tion, by pushing business to invest in clean
technologies.
While implementation of some parts of the
program will begin in 2012, compliance for
power plants and other of the worst polluting
facilities actually starts in 2013, with others
joining in 2015. In total, the plan will cover 85
percent of Californias emissions.
Former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, who
frequently promoted the law, called
Thursdays vote a major milestone in the
ght against climate change.
I have always believed that we can create a
world where economic growth, energy inde-
pendence and environmental protection are all
achieved, Schwarzenegger said
In general, the program will require pollu-
tion producers like reneries and cement man-
ufacturers to buy permits, called allowances,
from the state. Each permit allows for a spec-
ied amount of greenhouse gases each year,
with the amount declining over time.
Companies that cut emissions and have
extra allowances can then sell the permits in a
marketplace; greenhouse gas emitters could
purchase those allowances if they failed to cut
emissions.
Polluters that reduce emissions could turn a
prot if the market price for extra allowances
rises above the initial cost of the permit.
A company can also meet up to 8 percent of
its emissions reduction obligations by pur-
chasing carbon offsets, or investments in
forestry or other projects that reduce green-
house gases.
The program, modeled on similar programs
in Europe, is also designed to be able to link
up with plans in other states and elsewhere to
increase the size of its market for carbon
allowance trading.
Although other states and some Canadian
provinces such as Quebec and British
Columbia hope to link their caps to
Californias, a big factor in the states success
will be whether or not they have to go it
alone, said Jan Mazurek, director of strategy
and operations for the Nicholas Institute for
Environmental Policy Solutions at Duke
University.
Small markets mean fewer trading oppor-
tunities and so potentially higher costs,
Mazurek said.
To help companies prepare, 90 percent of
the allowances would be free in the rst years,
providing time for equipment upgrades.
A letter sent by the California Chamber of
Commerce and a host of other business
groups called the 10 percent in allowances an
arbitrary 10 percent haircut. The letter said
that California cant fight global climate
change on its own.
We are very concerned about the negative
impacts the policy may have on the states
economy, jobs picture and energy costs, said
Catherine Reheis-Boyd, president of the
Western State Petroleum Association, in a
statement. This policy, if adopted, will
amount to a new tax on reners and other
energy intensive industries that could total bil-
lions of dollars over several years.
Any electricity price increases would have
to be approved by the state.
The cap-and-trade plan has seen a number
of changes and overcome signicant hurdles
since it was rst adopted with fanfare in
Sacramento last year.
Work was briey halted by a judge after
environmental justice groups sued, arguing
the market-based approach of cap-and-trade
would allow polluters to buy the right to pol-
lute more by purchasing more allowances.
This, they argued, would affect mostly low-
income neighborhoods located near governed
facilities.
The California Supreme Court in
September allowed work to continue on the
regulations.
In response to these concerns, the board on
Thursday also approved a new adaptive man-
agement plan, under which the air quality of
neighborhoods near power plants and other
regulated facilities will be monitored to see if
any more pollution results from cap-and-
trade. If increases are found to be a result of
cap-and-trade, the board said it would
respond.
Environmental groups that have lobbied for
years for a national cap-and-trade program
lauded Californias regulation.
California is proof that common sense cli-
mate action is still possible on a large scale in
the United States even though Washington,
D.C., remains gridlocked, said Fred Krupp,
president of Environmental Defense Fund.

Nissans mid-size car is this years big seller
By Ann M. Job
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Nissans American-built mid-size car, the
Altima, is catching on with car buyers this
year.
Through the rst nine months of 2011, the
pleasantly styled and well-powered Altima
posted U.S. sales of more than 200,000 and
outsold a perennial top seller, the Honda
Accord. The Altima also was the fth most
popular car or truck in the United States in
sales last month, and its September sales were
just 495 shy of the months total Toyota
Camry sales.
The Accord and Camry traditionally are No.
1 and 2, respectively, in U.S. car sales.
The sales gains arent just because the
Nissan was able to resume production faster
than Honda and Toyota after the big earth-
quake in Japan early this year and have readi-
ly available cars on dealer lots.
The ve-passenger Altima, which made its
U.S. debut in the 1993 model year, has been
coming into its own for a while, Nissan of-
cials said.
Buyers find the 2012 Altima largely
unchanged from the 2011 version, which has
been known for spunky performance, com-
fortable ride and easy-to-use controls and
gauges. The 2012 models with four-cylinder
engine also are competitive in fuel mileage,
ranking seventh overall among non-diesel and
non-hybrid 2012 mid-size sedans.
Adding to the appeal: The Altima, with
above average reliability, is a recommended
buy of Consumer Reports.
And the 2012 sedan earned four out of ve
stars for passenger protection in a frontal
crash and ve out of ve stars for side crash
protection.
Plus, its built in not one, but two assembly
plants in the United States Smyrna, Tenn.,
and Canton, Miss.
The biggest change for Altima for 2012 is

that the slow-selling, high-priced, gaso-
line-electric Altima hybrid sedan is no
longer being produced.
Starting manufacturers suggested
retail price, including destination charge,
for the 2012 Altima sedan is $21,170.
This is for the base 2.5 model with 175-
horsepower, four-cylinder gasoline
engine and continuously variable trans-
mission (CVT) that a driver operates like
an automatic transmission. The upscale
Altima 3.5 SR sedan, which has sport-
tuned suspension and 270-horsepower
V-6, has a starting retail price, including
destination charge, of $26,190.
In comparison, the competing, mid-
size 2012 Ford Fusion sedan has a start-
ing MSRP, including destination charge,
of $20,645 with 175-horsepower four-
cylinder engine and manual transmis-
sion. The lowest retail price for a 2012
Fusion with automatic is $21,540, which
is $370 more than the base Altima.
The 2012 Honda Accord sedan with
177-horsepower four cylinder and man-
ual transmission starts at $22,150, or
$980 more than the base Altima. With
automatic, the 2012 Accord sedan starts
at $22,950.
The Altima also is sold as a two-door,
ve-seat coupe with a starting MSRP,
including destination charge, of
$24,360. This base coupe comes with
175-horsepower four cylinder and man-
ual transmission. The lowest starting
retail price for a 2012 Altima Coupe
with automatic is $24,860.
The test Altima was the mid-range 2.5
S sedan that topped out at more than
$26,000 with power driver seat, moon-
roof, Bluetooth connectivity, dual cli-
mate control and alloy wheels among the
options. With standard curtain air bags,
traction and stability control, the tester
did not have leather-trimmed seats or
navigation system.
The test Altima immediately
impressed with its power. The 2.5-liter,
double overhead cam four cylinder
moved the car quickly and in sprightly
fashion on city streets and country roads.
There was engine buzziness on uphill
sections of highway, but the car still kept
up with trafc.
The CVT worked well, without mak-
ing passengers hear a lot of high-engine
revving. In fact, it was one of the best
experiences Ive had with a four-cylinder
and CVT working together smoothly to
power a sizable car thats nearly 16 feet
long.
The Altimas steering was nicely
responsive, too, and better than expect-
ed. I appreciated that the car came with
both tilt and telescope steering column,
so I could adjust the wheel to the best
spot for me.
The interior was quite quiet, and I did-
nt hear much from passing trucks or
motorcycles. I didnt notice wind noise,
either.
Fabric seats looked and felt good, and
side windows in front and back were
good-sized. But back-seat headroom
was about an inch less than whats in the
Fusion and Accord. All gauges, buttons
and knobs were easy to understand and
within reach. I was especially impressed
by the huge Altima glovebox with near-
ly half a cubic foot of space.
Cubbies on the doors were large
enough to hold 20-ounce drinks, and
there were three cupholders in the con-
sole between driver and front passenger
a nice touch.
There also was a handy covered cubby
at the base of the middle of the dash-
board that was just right for storing a cell
phone.
It is, however, easy to drive the four-
cylinder Altima with gusto, because it
powers along so easily. Often, I found
myself going over the speed limit in the
city, but I still averaged 26.5 miles per
gallon in travel that was 70 percent city
driving.
This was enough to go 530 miles on a
single tank of regular gasoline, because
the Altimas big tank holds 20 gallons.
In comparison, the Accords gas tank is
18.5 gallons.
For the record, the four-cylinder
Altima is rated at 23 mpg in the city and
32 on the highway.
Unfortunately, there already have been
two safety recalls of the 2012 Altimas.
One, announced in July, was for certain
2011 and 2012 Altimas that had suspen-
sion bolts that werent tightened to spec-
ication and could lead to vibration and
possible loss of vehicle control.
The second recall, announced in
August, was due to an air bag control
unit not being assembled properly. This
could mean the air bag wouldnt proper-
ly inate in a crash.

Ford workers approve new
contract,63 percent in favor
By Tom Krisher and Dee-Ann Durbin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DETROIT Union workers at Ford Motor Co. overcame
early opposition to a new four-year contract with the company
and overwhelmingly approved the deal in voting that lasted two
weeks.
More than 22,000 workers, or 63 percent of those who cast bal-
lots, voted in favor of the pact, while almost 13,000, or 37 per-
cent, opposed it, the United Auto Workers said in a statement
Wednesday.
The vote means that new contracts have been approved at Ford
and General Motors Co., with Chrysler workers just starting to
vote on their deal. At all three companies, union leaders agreed to
prot sharing and signing bonuses instead of annual pay raises, a
novel concept that helps the companies control their costs yet
rewards workers.
The contracts set the wages and benets for 112,000 auto
workers nationwide, and also inuence the pay at auto plants
owned by foreign companies, auto parts supply companies and
other industries.
As part of the deal at Ford, the company promised $4.8 billion
in new investments in its U.S. plants and 5,750 new jobs. Ford
and the UAW reached the agreement on Oct. 4 but workers had
to ratify it with a majority vote.
Most workers wont get annual raises under the contract, but
they will get prot-sharing checks, ination adjustment payments
and other bonuses worth at least $16,700 through 2015.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO Steve Jobs had a dis-
dain for people who put prots rst. In an
upcoming authorized
biography of the late
Apple CEO, he calls the
crop of executives brought
in to run Apple after his
ouster in 1985 corrupt
people with corrupt val-
ues who cared only about
making money.
Jobs was often bullied
in school and stopped
going to church at age 13, according to Steve
Jobs, by Walter Isaacson, which will be pub-
lished Monday by Simon & Schuster. The
Associated Press purchased a copy Thursday.
Advance sales of the biography have topped
best-seller lists since Jobs died Oct. 5 after a
long battle with cancer at age 56.
As a teenager, Jobs exhibited some odd
behaviors he began to try various diets, eat-
ing just fruits and vegetables for a time, and
perfected staring at others without blinking.
Later, on the naming of Apple, Jobs told
Isaacson he was on one of my fruitarian
diets.
Hed just come back from an apple farm,
and he thought the name sounded fun, spirit-
ed and not intimidating.
Much of the book adds detail to whats
already known, or at least speculated, about
Jobs. While Isaacson is not the rst to tell
Jobs story, he had unprecedented access to
the man who ercely guarded his own, as well
as his companys, privacy. Isaacson inter-
viewed Jobs more than 40 times, including
just a few weeks before his death. As a result,
the book does for Steve Jobs legacy what
Apple did for portable music players, person-
al computers and tablets puts it in the hands
of regular folks, not just the tech geeks who
already live and breathe all-things-Apple.
Jobs reveals in the book that he didnt want
to go to college, and the only school he
applied to was costly private college Reed in
Portland, Ore. Once accepted, his parents tried
to talk him out of attending Reed, but he told
them he wouldnt go to college at all if they

Several movies in the past
year or so have tried to get
their arms around the
unwieldy topic of the 2008
economic collapse. Its a sub-
ject thats incredibly compli-
cated and, even more chal-
lenging for lmmakers, not
one thats inherently cinemat-
ic.
The documentary Inside
Job did an excellent job of
spelling out what happened in
a clear, concise way without
ever condescending to its
audience, and it earned an
Academy Award in the
process. Several feature lms,
including the hit-and-miss
The Company Men and the
operatic Wall Street: Money
Never Sleeps, have tried to
put a human face on the sub-
ject with mixed results.
Now we have Margin Call,
which recreates the earliest
moments of the crisis with the
tight time frame and claustro-
phobic setting of a play a
David Mamet play, to be spe-
cic. First-time writer-direc-
tor J.C. Chandor depicts this
devastating moment of
volatility with a patter thats
reminiscent of Mamet: pro-
fane and masculine, with
rhythmic repetition of certain
key phrases that we, unfortu-
nately, cant repeat here our-
selves. Its a tting approach
given the swagger of the char-
acters in this cruel and com-
petitive world, as well as the
pressure they feel once they
realize how much trouble
they, and the rest of the world,
are in.
Chandors father worked for

A weekend full
of Latin music
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Two of Latin Americas premiere and most refreshing musi-
cal acts are coming to the Bay Area in what should be quite the
awesome weekend for fans.
Calle 13, the hip-hop group from Puerto Rico, and Julieta
Venegas, Mexicos current queen of song, will grace two dif-
ferent Bay Area stages this weekend the Fillmore, in San
Francsco, and the Fox Theater, in Oakland.
For Calle 13, it marks a much-anticipated appearance in the
Bay Area after a previously scheduled concert (at the Factory
in San Francisco) in May was canceled.
The concert will be their rst at The Fillmore in San
Francisco and comes during a hugely successful tour around
Europe and Latin America.
Calle 13, led by vocalist Ren Prez Joglar (Residente) and
Eduardo Jos Cabra Martnez (Visitante), burst onto the scene
in 2007 and were labeled a reggaeton group out of the gate. But
theyve since shed that stigma and transformed themselves into
one of the most eclectic and innovative groups in music today.
Hip-hop, cumbia, salsa or electronic, Calle 13 can do it all,
and they have 12 Grammys (10 Latin) to prove it. Theyve cur-
rently in promotion of their fourth studio album, Entren Los
Que Quieran.
Venegas is a Bay Area regular and returns less than three
months after performing at the Outside Lands music festival in
Golden Gate Park. It was a shortened set, but successful for the
most part.
Before that, Venegas brought her tour to the Fox donning a
ve-month baby bump. She has since given birth to her daugh-
ter Simona.
Venegas shows are known for their organic vibe. The win-
ner of six Latin Grammys, Venegas is currently on the back-
end of her tour to promote her latest project, Otra Cosa.
Tickets for both shows can be purchased at www.ticketmas-

LOS ANGELES The documentary
Being Elmo: A Puppeteers Journey
opens this week, about every toddlers
favorite red monster and the man who
brings him to life, Kevin Clash.
One of the joys of watching Clash in
action besides marveling at how
effortless he makes it all look is see-
ing how seamlessly he relates to both
children and adults. And the segments he
does with celebrities, as Elmo learns a
lesson or explains a new word, are
among his best. So heres a look at ve
of the greatest celebrity appearances
over the four-plus decades Sesame
Street has been on air. As the mother of
a 2-year-old son, compiling this weeks
list was one of the most enjoyable yet.
Stevie Wonder performs
Superstition (1973):
This sort of thing doesnt happen on
Sesame Street anymore. Sure, they
have plenty of top artists perform all the
time. But this is young Wonder at his
thrilling best, singing one of his most
enduring songs with a full band behind
him, and the energy is just incredible.
Check out the little kids playing maracas
on the stairs and rocking out on the re
escapes. Plus, the clip is nearly 7 min-
utes long which would be unheard of
today on any type of TV show and it
even features a shout-out to Cookie
M o n s t e r .
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v
ul7X5js1vE).
Ricky Gervais sings a
lullaby to Elmo (2009):
A great example of how Clash skill-
fully straddles the line between appeal-
ing to kids through Elmos innate sweet-
ness and making adults laugh with more
knowing, playful humor. When Elmos
having trouble falling asleep at night,
Gervais shows up with a guitar to sing
him a lullaby about the letter N. The
song starts out with harmless words like
nice, nuzzle and nightcap, but it eventu-
ally gets noisy as Gervais cranks it up
for the chorus. He is, as always, hilari-
ous. But also be sure to notice the vari-
ety of expressions Clash coaxes out of
Elmos furry, red noggin.
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?vJc20v
Mz0V7Q ). Also check out a clip from
the interview The Associated Press did
with Gervais and Elmo during that
shoot. Its hysterical:
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?vKr9
5uZn6ds).
Lena Horne sings Bein Green
with Kermit the Frog (1974):
This clip is so lovely, so delicate and
yet so powerful, it makes me want to cry
every time. Its a classic Sesame Street
song with its poignant message of self-
acceptance. But here, Horne sympa-
thizes with Kermit, who looks so lonely
and forlorn at the beginning of the song
in Jim Hensons masterful hands. By the

THE MAIN GALLERY RECEPTION.
The Main Gallery artists cooperative invites
the public to meet artists Susan Wolf and
Arup Biswas at the opening reception for
their joint show, Sea Shells and Sonatas,
from 5 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 22 at
1018 Main St., Redwood City.
Susan Wolf describes herself as someone
who really enjoys making beautiful things.
After being given a book of seashells last
Christmas, Wolf was reminded of how beau-
tiful shells can be. My shells are not all
turning out as Id expected! Some of the par-
ticular shells Id envisioned have not gotten
beyond the rst thought. Others, which Id
thought to give only a passing mention
have become points of focus. Most of the
ceramic hand-built pieces are porcelain with
much underglazing, some with a clear over-
glaze, some just raw. A few are made of
coarser sculpture clays. But all are unique
and nd their own inherent beauty inspired
by nature!
Arup Biswas was born in India in the
foothills of the Himalayas. The pristine
Himalayan beauty instilled in him a love for
nature, which he rediscovered when he
moved to the United States in 1992, after
acquiring a Masters degree in Computer
Science. Thats when he bought his rst cam-
era and started photographing landscapes
across the country. Biswas reminisces, I
remember crying in front of the Merced
River in Yosemite after seeing the rst snow
in my life. Music has inuenced Biswas
profoundly in all his photographic works.
Although music and photography are experi-
enced by two different senses, both mediums
strive to evoke similar emotional responses
in the human psyche. For Biswas a well-exe-
cuted photographic print, in many ways, he
said, Is like a well orchestrated musical
symphony. Biswas said, Trees are my most
favorite subjects to photograph. I rarely get
excited by grand landscape panoramas. But
the blooming dogwoods in the spring, the
yellow and orange aspens in the fall, and the
dramatic redwood trees covered in snow
make me feel alive; I start experiencing the
color, form and shape throughout my whole
body. I respond with my camera. The results
are the recording of these intimate conversa-
tions with nature visual sonatas.
The Main Gallery is open Wednesday
through Sunday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. For

let the excellent cast of actors hes amassed do

also a producer), some gures he was study-
ing on his way out the door. His warning: Be
careful.
Peter who literally is a rocket scientist
with a doctorate from MIT digs a little
deeper later that night while the rms bad
boys are out partying. His realization that Eric
was onto something, that the rm is in way
over its head and is about to nd out its assets
are essentially worthless, spreads across his
face with a quiet horror. Its a reaction that
well see again and again as this discovery
gets kicked up the chain of command.
Next up is Peters new boss, the charismat-
ic Will Emerson (Paul Bettany), and then his
boss, the 34-year veteran Sam Rogers (Kevin
Spacey). Then come the people who run the
risk management department (Demi Moore
and Aasif Mandvi) whose warnings of
trouble a month earlier went unheeded and
then the rms young, soulless head honcho
(Simon Baker), until nally the creepily calm
CEO (Jeremy Irons) drops down from the sky
in his helicopter in the middle of the night.
Margin Call unfolds in a series of quietly
intense and increasingly distressing meetings
between the various gures Quinto and
Spacey, Spacey and Irons, Irons and Moore,
Moore and Tucci, and so on. There are no
histrionics, just the intermittent hum of
Nathan Larsons score to keep us on edge, and
the lights of the Manhattan skyline glittering
throughout this all-nighter to remind us of the
wealth and power that drove these people in
the rst place.
Perhaps its all a bit too actorly, a bit too
stagey in its structure. But strong perform-
ances abound, which is evident given
Chandors intimate approach, and that makes
Margin Call consistently compelling.
Bettany and Baker tear it up in big, showy
roles, and Tucci is withering in just a glance as
the lms disillusioned voice of reason. But
Spacey does some of the best work weve seen
from him in a while as a once-condent man
whos now questioning everything upon
which he built his cushy life. A subplot
involving his beloved dog may seem like a
maudlin metaphor for his fate and the
nations but it sure is apt.
Margin Call, a Lionsgate and Roadside
Attractions release, is rated R for language.
Running time: 107 minutes. Three stars out of
four.

didnt let him go there. Though he ended up
attending, Jobs dropped out of the school after
less than a year and never went back.
His pre-Apple job as a technician at Atari
paid $5 per hour. He saw a classied ad in the
San Jose Mercury News, went to visit the
company and informed them he wouldnt
leave unless they hired him.
Jobs, who spent years studying Zen
Buddhism never went back to church after he
saw a photo of starving children on the cover
of Life Magazine and asked his Sunday
school pastor if God knew what would happen
to them. He was 13 at the time.
Jobs eye for simple, clean design was evi-
dent from early on. The case of the Apple II
computer had originally included a Plexiglas
cover, metal straps and a roll-top door. Jobs,
though, wanted something elegant that would
make Apple stand out. He told Isaacson he
was struck by Cuisinart food processors while
browsing at a department store and decided he
wanted a case made of molded plastic.
He called Jonathan Ive, Apples design
chief, his spiritual partner at Apple. He told
Isaacson Ive had more operation power at
Apple than anyone besides Jobs himself
that theres no one at the company who can
tell Ive what to do. That, says Jobs, is the
way I set it up.
Jobs was never a typical CEO. Apples rst
president, Mike Scott, was hired mainly to
manage Jobs, then 22. One of his rst proj-
ects: getting Jobs to bathe more often. It did-
nt really work.
Jobs dabbling in LSD and other aspects of
1960s counterculture has been well docu-
mented. In the book, Jobs says LSD rein-
forced my sense of what was important
creating great things instead of making
money, putting things back into the stream of
history and of human consciousness as much
as I could.
In the early 1990s, after Jobs was ousted
from Apple, he watched the companys grad-
ual decline from afar. He was angered by the
new crop of people brought in the run Apple,
and he called them corrupt.
He told Issacson they cared only about mak-
ing money for themselves mainly, and also
for Apple rather than making great prod-
ucts.
He also revealed that the Beatles is one of
his favorite bands, and one of his wishes was
to get the band on iTunes before he died. He
got them available for sale on iTunes in late
2010. Until then, the biggest-selling, most
inuential group in rock history has been glar-
ingly absent from iTunes and other legal
online music services.
The book was originally called iSteve and
scheduled to come out in March 2012. The
release date was moved up to November, then,
after Jobs death, to this coming Monday.
The book says Jobs put no subject off limits
and had no control over its contents.

RICHARD SERRA DRAWINGS AT
SFMOMA. Richard Serras massive steel
sculptures have made him one of the key g-
ures in contemporary art, but his work also
takes another form: drawing. The San
Francisco Museum of Modern Arts Richard
Serra Drawing: A Retrospective, the rst-ever
over-arching look at Serras drawings, is a
chance to see how this major artists ideas and
methods have evolved since the 1970s, when
he began making wall-size abstractions that
radically altered the relationship between
drawing and architectural space. Serra uses
black paintstick to build stark, densely layered
forms that manipulate the viewers sense of
mass and gravity. The SFMOMA presentation
also features a selection of the artists earliest
sculptures in lead, rubber and fiberglass,
demonstrating the connection between the
processes of sculpting and drawing in Serras
art, as well as a display of his personal note-
books. The San Francisco Museum of Modern
Art is located at 151 Third St., near the
Moscone Center. Museum hours are Thursday
through Tuesday from 11 a.m. to 5:45 p.m.
with extended evening hours Thursdays until
8:45 p.m. The museum is closed on
Wednesdays. Admission to the museum is free
the rst Tuesday of each month. SFMOMA
can be reached from the Peninsula by taking
Caltrain to the SF station and hopping a bus
for the short ride to the museum. For more

Johnny Cash sings Nasty

Can you imagine a more perfect collabo-

Cash sings a song thats music to the
grouchs ears. Oscar is transfixed by such
lyrics as: Hed growl and yell and I heard
tell he never took a bath. At the end of the
song, Cash deadpans, Have a rotten day,
and hes off with the same quiet cool he had

This is a recent one from the current

I had to include it. Schreiber, Watts and
Elmo have various toys to trade with each
other, but the running gag is that Schreiber
keeps getting nudged out, and he becomes
increasingly exasperated. Its funny because
Schreiber and Watts, who are a couple with
kids in real life, are just so cute together
hes 6 feet and 3 inches and shes petite and
they have this fuzzy, red puppet bopping
around in between them but also because
these are serious actors doing a scene
involving purple balls and stuffed ducks.

I
ve been spending a lot of time
spatchcocking lately. Because
while it sounds like something
that should be X-rated, its really just a
ridiculously simple and speedy way of
roasting a whole chicken. Ive done it
on the grill and in the oven, and every
time the results have been moist and
delicious.
Heres how it works. To spatchcock
a chicken or any bird you simply
cut along the center backbone, starting
at the neck and right through to the
rump. This cut allows you to then
overturn the bird, spread it open and
lay it nearly at in the roasting pan. As
a result, it cooks much faster, making
it perfect for a weeknight dinner.
While this cut can be done with a
good knife, the easiest and safest way
to do it is with kitchen shears.
Once cut, the bird can be seasoned
as you like. For this recipe, I used a
simple but wonderfully aromatic com-
bination of fresh rosemary and a quar-
tered orange.
The recipe is written for the oven,
but Ive also
cooked it on the
grill. To do this,
simply cut and
season the chicken
as directed. Lay it
cut-side down on
several layers of
foil. Wedge
orange quarters
around it, then top
with fresh rose-
mary. Wrap the
foil tightly around
it.
ORANGE-ROSEMARY
SPATCHCOCKED CHICKEN
Start to nish: 1 hour 20 minutes (5
minutes active)
Servings: 4
3- to 5-pound chicken (larger chick-
ens may need additional cooking time)
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
1 to 2 medium oranges, quartered
2 to 4 large sprigs fresh rosemary
Heat the oven to 400 F.
Place the chicken on the cutting
board with the breast down. Use
kitchen shears to carefully cut from the
neck hole down the length of the back-
bone and out the rump. This will
require a little effort, but the shears
should cut through the bones without
difculty.
Spread open the chicken, exposing
the cavity. Sprinkle the inside with salt
and pepper. Overturn the chicken and
place it cavity side down in a roasting
pan just a bit larger than the chicken.
Gently press the chicken to atten.
Season over and under the skin with
salt and pepper.
Tuck orange quarters into the neck
and rump of the chicken, as well as
around the legs. Cover tightly with foil
and roast for 30 minutes. Uncover and
roast for another 30 minutes, or until
the thickest part of the meat reads 165
F.
Serve the meat accompanied by the
roasted orange wedges, which can be
eaten as is or squeezed over the meat.
Spatchcock a funny word for a fast dinner
Set one side of your grill to high, the other to low. Set the
chicken over the low side, cover the grill and cook for 30
minutes.Open the foil a bit at the top,then continue cooking,
covered, for another 15 to 25 minutes, or until the meat
reaches 165 F at the thickest part.

end kicks off the festivities.
Its not the big competition that comes in
the spring. This weekend, a handful of San
Mateo County teams will work with others for
the CalGames 2011. Hosted at Archbishop
Mitty High School in San Jose, 36 high school
teams will band together. Teams of three
robots will work to pick up and hang tubes in
a specic pattern. In the nal seconds of each
match, the big robots deploy minibots which
climb vertical poles in a race to the top,
according to the event website. Preliminary
matches began Friday and continue through
Saturday morning, followed by the playoffs
on Saturday afternoon.
The level of expertise achieved by these stu-
dents is impressive, said Jeff DeCurtins, sci-
ence department chair at Menlo-Atherton
High School, who oversees Robotics Team
766. Most of them start the club with little or
no technical knowledge and eventually learn
to feel at home with gears, wires, batteries,
motors, remote controls, computer systems,
etc.
While DeCurtins is excited to motivate new
recruits this weekend, he acknowledged it is
more fullling when students are involved in
making it.
Its a lot more thrilling when you see your
machine on the eld during a match trying to
do something you know is a stretch, he said.
The event isnt the huge anticipated one
later this school year which brings with it a
new set of challenges and guidelines. Instead,
using last years robot, new recruits and men-
tors will have a chance to see what this grow-
ing school activity is all about. Teens, mentors
and their teachers spend hours outside the
classroom creating these robots. Its a labor of
love that requires sponsor donations and adult
volunteers both are always needed by local
teams.
Each team is set up differently.
Seventeen-year-old John Luckenbach is a
junior on Team 100, which has students from
Carlmont, Woodside and Sequoia high
schools. Luckenbach, who handles nances
and public relations, attends Carlmont. He had
long been interested in engineering when, as a
freshman, a good friend encouraged him to
join the robotics team.
Robotics was love at rst sight. It is a safe
environment where students can explore and
learn hands-on skills in brainstorming, design-
ing, building and testing technology in the
eld of engineering, Luckenbach said.
Luckenbach stays because of the communi-
ty environment of the team. He also recog-
nizes the opportunities from making such con-
nections and learning new skills.
Laura Rhodes, a mentor for Team 100,
began working with the robotics group when
her son was a freshman. He is now a senior at
the University of California at Los Angeles.
This years Team 100 has over 50 students,
27 of which are coming from Carlmont, said
Carlmont advisor Larua Robeck.
This is also the rst opportunity many of
the new students (and their parents) will have
seeing a robotics competition. The excitement
theyll feel will be important to carry them
through some of the difcult days during the
January/February build season when we are
constructing our robot for the 2012 competi-
tion season, said Rhodes.
Each year, teams face a different game pre-
senting unique challenges in the FIRST (For
Inspiration and Recognition of Science and
Technology) Robotics competitions. For
example, in 2010, the robot had to play soccer
while navigating two large bumps across the
width of the eld. Teams got a bonus if the
robot could suspend itself by a chin-up bar
at the end of the match.
Teams start designing the bot in January and
are given a six-week build period to get things
done. All teams, nationwide, must ship the
robots by the same time to ensure no one has
extra time to work. Teams must x damage
from an earlier competition just prior to the
start of the next tournament.
For students, this activity offers a hands-on
learning opportunity not offered in the class-
room. For mentors, its a chance to share a
topic about which they are passionate.
But the program is also challenging.
DeCurtins, for example, said its hard to nd
professional engineers to act as mentors. Also,
space is a major limitation for the M-A team
with most of the equipment stored in a closet in
the back of the classroom meaning time needs
to be spent at each meeting to haul everything
out and put it back at the end of the day.
Space, not just for robotics, is at a premi-
um on the M-A campus, he said.
Team 100 is facing similar challenges. The
program is expensive and running it requires a
lot from the volunteers. Growing means need-
ing more support from volunteers, parents and
the community. Team 100 has been lucky to
get such nancial support from DreamWorks
Animation in recent years and anonymous
matching donations through the Woodside
High School Foundation.
CalGames 2011 will be held 6:15 p.m. to
7:15 p.m. Friday, Oct. 21 and 8:30 a.m. to
4:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 22 at Archbishop
Mitty High School, 5000 Mitty Way, San Jose.
Admission is free. Playoffs begin at 2 p.m.
Saturday. All teams are looking for sponsor-
ship and volunteer mentors. Those interested
in helping Team 100 should visit

Team 766 should visit www.marobotics.org.

overwhelming to have those feelings of recog-
nition, appreciation and gratitude, Coulston,
19, told the Daily Journal yesterday.
His inability to smile, he said, may have had
something to do with how he viewed or felt
about himself and his lack of comfort in
crowds.
Many people try to stay in their own com-
fort levels. When you have a lack of encour-
agement and are told constantly that you are
wrong, it can be hard to overcome, he said. I
couldnt even talk to customers at rst, but I
tried and it got easier. This job is social and I
knew I had to overcome that.
People with autism can get stuck in a no-
condence box, he said.
The unemployment rate for young adults
with autism is a staggering 65.7 percent but
Community Gatepath is helping to turn those
numbers around through an intensive voca-
tional training program.
Community Gatepath, based in Burlingame,
is the largest nonprot agency serving chil-
dren and adults with varying special needs in
San Mateo County. It serves 8,300 people with
developmental disabilities in the county annu-
ally nd work and learn how to live independ-
ently
Gatepath operated the Autism Works pro-
gram locally through a contract with the state
Department of Rehabilitation, and although
the contract has just expired, the local non-
prot will continue to support it because of its
success.
To date, the Autism Works program has
assisted 17 young adults with autism nd
community employment.
Tracy Carillo Fecher, who oversees the pro-
gram, said she has seen tremendous social
growth in those with autism spectrum disor-
ders who are able to nd work.
Ive seen clients come out of their shell,
gain confidence and improve their social
skills. Research shows sustained employment
for adults with ASD can be challenging.
Weve helped them take their rst steps on that
journey, she said.
The program includes interview seminars
and training, family engagement, community
outreach, employer training and job place-
ment.
Coulstons grandmother, Janet, credits the
job coach at Community Gatepath for recog-
nizing what her grandsons strengths were.
He could smile around his family but not
so much with others, she said.
After receiving the Neal Poppin Award yes-
terday, Coulston had no problem sharing his
smile.
I used to have a grin but no smile. It is
becoming easier to smile, especially after
today, he said.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- You wont have any
trouble keeping up with the Joneses, because to your
peers you are already a stellar attraction. Putting on
pretenses to enhance your image wont be necessary.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Although at times you
are inclined to think that no one cares about you,
a situation might develop thatll prove how much
everyone likes you. All you have to do is just relax
and be yourself.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- When you relax,
youre a charmer, impressing everyone with whom you
come in contact. It will be one of those times when

NATION/WORLD
Gadhas death clears a cloud over
Libyas shaky interim government
while focusing new scrutiny on the
former rebels and exiles now in
charge and on possible candidates to
lead a permanent government.
Despite a public embrace of Libyas
transitional leadership, the U.S.
remains leery of some of the motives
of those who have promised a quick
move to elections and democracy.
And, while no ofcial said it, the
fear of an Islamist surge in power
hangs over Libyas unsure future.
This is a momentous day in the
history of Libya, President Barack
Obama declared from the White
House Rose Garden. The dark shad-
ow of tyranny has been lifted, and
with this enormous promise the
Libyan people now have a great
responsibility: to build an inclusive
and tolerant and democratic Libya
that stands as the ultimate rebuke to
Gadhas dictatorship. We look for-
ward to the announcement of the
countrys liberation, the quick forma-
tion of an interim government and a
stable transition to Libyas rst free
and fair elections.
The 69-year-old Gadhafi was
killed by revolutionary ghters over-
whelming his hometown of Sirte, the
last bastion of his supporters resist-
ance. Along with the reported cap-
ture of Gadhas son and heir appar-
ent Seif al-Islam, and the killing of
Gadhas son and security chief,
Mutassim. Thursdays developments
appeared to signal a decisive end to
eight months of civil war in the
North African country.
The National Transitional
Councils largely secular leadership
has promised to respect human rights
and the rule of law, and usher in an
inclusive era of government, but it is
held together by a shaky coalition of
individuals with competing interests
and ambitions. There is a massive
power vacuum and uncertainty about
what or who will ll it.
Armed groups across the country
have emerged as laws unto them-
selves. Interim leader Mahmoud
Jibril has indicated hell step aside
once Libyas liberation is complete,
creating possibly another vacuum.
And in a country awash in weaponry,
where Gadhas once vast arsenal of
conventional arms and rocket-pro-
pelled missiles have been looted, the
threat of widespread instability is
high.
Obama said the U.S. was under
no illusions.
Libya will travel a long and wind-
ing road to full democracy, he said.
There will be difcult days ahead.
But the United States, together with
the international community, is com-
mitted to the Libyan people. You
have won your revolution, and now
we will be a partner as you forge a
future that provides dignity, freedom
and opportunity.
Libyas patchwork of competing
tribal and regional loyalties makes it
a challenging place to govern under
any circumstances, and 42 years of
idiosyncratic rule under Gadhafi
compounds the difculty. He drained
the country of institutions, eliminat-
ed any threat to his authority and
dened nearly all aspects of life
through his political vision that cen-
tered on a green book, powerless
peoples committees and his
unpredictable antics.
Continued from page 1
LIBYA
By Hamza Hendawi
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CAIRO Images of Moammar
Gadhas bloodied body ashed on
TV screens across the world may
send shivers down the spines of
Syrias Bashar Assad and Yemens
Ali Abdullah Saleh, two leaders
clinging to power in the face of
long-running Arab Spring uprisings.
For the millions of Arabs yearning
for freedom, democracy and new
leadership, the death of one of the
regions most brutal dictators will
likely inspire and invigorate the
movement for change.
Gadhafis death sent ripples
across the Arab world and set the
Internets social networks abuzz
with comments, mostly celebrating
the demise of a leader whose bizarre
and eccentric behavior over the
years dened the woes of an Arab
world mostly ruled by autocratic or
despotic leaders.
There is an emotional connec-
tion between the revolutionaries in
the region. Hope is contagious, said
Egyptian activist Mona Seif. Our
revolution is one. The fall of anoth-
er tyrant is a victory for all of us,
she said in a post on her Twitter
account.
Gadha was shot dead Thursday
in the nal battle for his hometown
of Sirte on Libyas Mediterranean
coast. He had been in hiding for the
two months since the capital of
Tripoli fell to rebels who rose up
against his 42-year rule in February.
The 69-year-old Gadha the
rst leader to be killed in the Arab
Spring wave of popular uprisings
had vowed to ght to the end. In his
world of nationalism and desert
valor, it was a fate better than the
perceived humiliation of exile or
incarceration endured by Tunisias
Zine El Abidine Ben Ali and
Egypts Hosni Mubarak.
But while the death of Gadha
and the triumph of the uprising in
his North African nation has instant-
ly given heart to pro-reform activists
dreaming of change, the Arab world
will watch closely what happens
next in Libya and to whether the
regions Assads and Salehs will
see in his fate an incentive to cling
to power and crack down even hard-
er on any sign of unrest.
As word spread of Gadhafis
death, jubilant Libyans poured into
Tripolis central Martyrs Square,
chanting Syria! Syria! urging
the Syrian opposition on to victory.
Winning the war in Libya is the
easy part. Building democracy will
be the tough part, said Ronald
Bruce of St. Johns College in Santa
Fe, N.M. It is going to be chaotic,
but the Libyans will be up to the
task.
A cautionary tale
Gadhafis death to likely invigorateArab worlds movement for change

SIRTE, Libya Dragged from
hiding in a drainage pipe, a wound-
ed Moammar Gadha raised his
hands and begged revolutionary
ghters: Dont kill me, my sons.
Within an hour, he was dead, but
not before jubilant Libyans had
vented decades of hatred by pulling
the eccentric dictators hair and
parading his bloodied body on the
hood of a truck.
The death Thursday of Gadha,
two months after he was driven
from power and into hiding, deci-
sively buries the nearly 42-year
regime that had turned the oil-rich
country into an international pariah
and his own personal efdom.
It also thrusts Libya into a new
age in which its transitional leaders
must overcome deep divisions and
rebuild nearly all its institutions
from scratch to achieve dreams of
democracy.
We have been waiting for this
historic moment for a long time.
Moammar Gadhafi has been
killed, Prime Minister Mahmoud
Jibril said in the capital of Tripoli.
I would like to call on Libyans to
put aside the grudges and only say
one word, which is Libya, Libya,
Libya.
President Barack Obama told the
Libyan people: You have won
your revolution.
Although the U.S. briey led the
relentless NATO bombing cam-
paign that sealed Gadhas fate,
Washington later took a secondary
role to its allies. Britain and France
said they hoped that his death
would lead to a more democratic
Libya.
Other leaders have fallen in the
Arab Spring uprisings, but the 69-
year-old Gadha is the rst to be
killed. He was shot to death in his
hometown of Sirte, where revolu-
tionary ghters overwhelmed the last
of his loyalist supporters Thursday
after weeks of heavy battles.

Another security
victory for Obama
By Ben Feller

WASHINGTON The death of
Libyan leader Moammar Gadha
expands the growing string of secu-
rity victories on President Barack
Obamas watch and reinforces his
own style of dealing with enemies
without immersing the United States
in war. Even skeptics offered con-
gratulations.
For Obama, the outcome allowed
him to stand victorious in the Rose
Garden on Thursday, taking note
also of the death this year of promi-
nent al-Qaida leaders at the hands of
the United States.
His message: The United States
showed it can help rally an interna-
tional campaign to protect Libyans
and rid the world of a killer without
a single U.S. troop dying.
His vice president, Joe Biden,
went further.
This is more of the prescription
for how to deal with the world as we
go forward than it has been in the
past, Biden said in New
Hampshire, as the administration
sought again to distance itself from
an era of politics once dominated by
the Iraq war.
For Obama, the larger story is of
an administration with deepening
credibility on how to handle bad
actors or international tinderboxes
without immersing the United States
in war.
It is not expected to impact his re-
election chances; 2012 will be the
economy election.
But it burnishes his standing on
how to protect the country and work
with the rest of the world.
As Obama likes to remind
Americans, he is the president who
hastened the end of the war in Iraq,
and he is now winding down the one
in Afghanistan after expanding it
greatly. And in a span of months, the
country has seen the demise of infa-
mous men who either had killed
Americans or haunted the United
States by targeting it for terror
attacks.
