Fighting for victims

The multi-colored chalk writing
outside the county center steps yes-
terday spelled out simply the focus
of the budget hearing happening
inside: No more jails.
The inclusion of $44 million in
the countys $1.9 billion budget for
initial jail planning and construction
drew dozens and dozens of oppo-
nents whose comments ranged from
impassioned requests for more pub-
lic consideration to threats of politi-
cal and personal safety if the county
supervisors did not back away from
a new correctional facility six years
in the making.
The Board of Supervisors ulti-
mately approved its recommended
budget after adding $1 million to
enhance electronic home monitor-
ing and other alternatives and dis-
cussed a desire for more data on the
population.
Its a lot of money but it may
also help with our jail population,
said board President Adrienne
Tissier.
The board also added more than
$1 million from its realignment
funding for re-entry programs
through competitive grants to com-
munity-based organizations. The
budget vote marked by jeers,
chanting and even a few insults
directed at individual supervisors by
the crowd came after two and a
half hours of public comment by
speakers who took aim at Sheriff
Greg Munks own run-in with Las
Vegas police who detained him in a
brothel after a law enforcement
race, his recent categorization of
opponents as non-county residents
and county ofcials declarations
that they cant control who is incar-

A popular coastal pumpkin farm
known for its pony rides and hay
maze wont lose tax incentives by
offering tourist attractions after
county supervisors yesterday agreed
to amend the contract that gives the
owners a break in return for main-
taining agriculture land.
The decision came just as the
Arata Pumpkin Farm gears up for
the Halloween season which in past
years has drawn visitors with a
haunted barn, coliseum-type sword
fighting and even a large metal
gorilla. But owner/operator Chris
Gounalakis agreed to scale back his
operation no more gorilla for one
thing and limit the seasonal
activities to 90 days to avoid the
need for zoning permits and main-
tain the Williamson Act contract

Merchants and organizers are
preparing for the return of the Wine
Walk in downtown San Mateo this
Saturday after the event was can-
celed last year.
Organizers say this years event,
the 16th, will be better than ever as
the format has been changed from
previous years.
Instead of asking businesses to
transform part of their space into
tasting rooms, the Downtown San
Mateo Association has decided,
instead, to set up several outdoor
wine gardens throughout the
downtown Wine Walk area.
Each winery will have a table
within a wine garden, said Jessica
Evans, executive director at the
DSMA. Evans was not with the
DSMA last year when the event was
canceled.
Last years cancellation ruffled
the feathers of some members of the
City Council who chastised the
DSMAs former executive director
for failing to pull off the annual
event.
The annual event typically attracts
thousands to San Mateos down-
town.
It is exciting to see Wine Walk
return under the new leadership at
DSMA. We look forward to using
this event to showcase all the things
that make San Mateo special,
Deputy Mayor David Lim wrote
the Daily Journal in an email.
The DSMA expects at least 50
different wines from all around the
world to be available for tasting at
this years event.
Also new this year is the addition

A candid conversation between
Assemblyman Rich Gordon and Caada
College students Tuesday allowed the legislator
to encourage those in attendance to become
politically active but he also warned of possible
future state struggles.
The hour-long conversation started with a
quick introduction, answers to a panel of ques-
tions from a student and staff, and then the
about 40 people in attendance had the chance to
ask anything of Gordon, D-Menlo Park. From
nancial cuts to legalizing marijuana, Gordon
encouraged students to ask any question and
offered straightforward answers. Regardless of
the topic, a theme was for students to be
involved in the political process.
If you dont vote, youre very likely to get
screwed by the political process. Im not sure
Im allowed to say that. If you dont invest
your vote, and dont contribute that, then your
opinion is lost. The wrong people might get
elected. Your values might not be represented
in the political process. Candidly, there is way
too much at stake, both here in California but
here in the world. There are huge decisions
reached every day in the political process that
impact all of our lives. Its critical that we
exercise the right we have in this democracy
to exercise our opinion by vote, said Gordon,
who added only about 30 percent of eligible
voters took part in the June election.
More recently, nances have taken a center
stage with politics. Gordons rst week on the
job included Gov. Jerry Brown explaining
that the state had a $27 billion gap between
revenue and expenses. Gordon has worked
with other elected ofcials to cut that by $20
billion. The remaining money, he explained,
will be decided in November. Voters will
either support Proposition 30 or allow trigger
cuts to go into effect, he said.
Brown put Proposition 30 before voters in
November which, if passed, will increase the
personal income tax on people making more
than $250,000 for seven years starting in
2012. In addition, the measure would
increase the statewide sales tax by .25 percent
to 7.5 percent for four years. The measure
promises to raise revenue estimates vary
between $5.4 billion to $9 billion depending
on the year to be used for maintaining cur-
rent programs, according to the Legislative
Analysts Ofce. A competing measure is
also on the ballot. Proposition 38 only deals
with raising personal income tax. Most of the
money raised will be used for K-12 and early
education programs rather than college. Only
one can pass. If the governors measure pass-
es, trigger cuts wont happen. If Proposition
38 passes, Gordon warned those trigger cuts
will still most likely go into effect.
Making higher education more affordable is
a goal for Gordon, but he explained it is often
difcult. For example, he worked on the Middle
Class Scholarship Act which aimed to tax busi-
nesses out of California that sell products in the
state. It was expected to raise $1 billion annual-
ly that would have been given to middle income
students in state schools to reduce the amount of
tuition and fees. The initiative fell one vote short
in the state Senate, he said.
Gordon said he tries to represent those who
elected him and implement what he said he
would.
Sometimes Im successful. ... Sometimes
you fail, Gordon said.
Students also expressed an interest in a vari-
ety of other topics. In terms of legalizing and
taxing marijuana, Gordon said his position is
evolving. He struggles with how to implement
the change. Gordon likes high-speed rail as an
idea but doesnt think funding options will be
realized for at least 20 years.
Lastly, in the coming 10 years, Gordon
thinks water conservation and increased avail-
ability will be one of the biggest issues facing
the state.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
Two young women from San Mateo
will travel to Japan next summer to serve
as student ambassadors in Toyonaka as
part of a goodwill exchange program.
Toyonaka is San Mateos sister city
and a student here will also serve as host
ambassador for Toyonaka students that
will visit San Mateo next year.
Sharon Borden and Cameron Hill
were picked by the San Mateo Sister
City Association to participate in the
program and Guy Geva was selected as
an alternate.
Geva, an Aragon High School sopho-
more, will also host students from Japan
in San Mateo as part of the program.
Borden is a senior at Aragon High
School, where she is secretary of the stu-
dent body, serves on the recycling club
and participates in mock trial, Harvard
Model Congress, and is on the varsity
swim and water polo teams.
An avid surfer, Borden is looking for-
ward to observing and partaking in
Japanese daily life and having the
chance to share my knowledge of San
Mateo and American culture with the
people of Toyonaka.
Hill, a lifelong resident of San Mateo,
attends Castilleja School in Palo Alto,
where she is involved in community
service, journalism
and the debate team.
A sophomore, Hill
plays varsity basket-
ball and softball and
has previously trav-
eled on an exchange
program to Kenya.
Hill is excited to con-
nect with her
Japanese ancestry
and to share her pride
in the city of San
Mateo, according to
a press release from
the San Mateo Sister
City Association.
Geva is a sopho-
more at Aragon High
School and is a mem-
ber of the robotics
team and chamber
orchestra.
Geva is interested in math and com-
puter programming but also found time
to volunteer as a junior lifeguard for the
city of San Mateo for two summers.
Geva is excited to serve as a host/alter-
nate ambassador to see and learn about
the relationship between San Mateo and
Toyonaka, according to the press
release.
The student ambassadors were select-
ed by the San Mateo
Sister City
Association after a
competitive applica-
tion process open to
all San Mateo resi-
dents between the
ages of 16-20. The
two student ambassa-
dors will receive an
all-expense paid trip
to Japan in July 2013, where they will
stay with host families in Toyonaka, and
represent the city of San Mateo as cul-
tural ambassadors.
We are thrilled to have three intelli-
gent and outstanding student ambassa-
dors representing the city of San Mateo
in this inaugural year of our student
exchange program, Anne Harris, a
member of the selection committee
wrote in the press release. We are con-
dent these student ambassadors will
represent the best of San Mateo, while
making memories and friendships to last
a lifetime.
The student ambassadors will be hon-
ored at an announcement dinner being
held Thursday, Sept. 27 from 6 p.m. to 8
p.m. at San Mateo City Hall. Individuals
interested in attending may contact
Deputy Mayor David Lim at (415) 290-
4044 for more information.

Brown OKs state parks
funds, prevents closures
By Juliet Williams
SACRAMENTO Gov. Jerry Brown has signed several
bills to keep Californias state parks open and ensure greater
spending oversight after a scandal in which
parks ofcials hid $54 million.
Together, the bills establish a two-year
moratorium on parks closures, provide
about $30 million in funding and give the
parks new fundraising tools.
AB1478 by Assemblyman Bob
Blumeneld, D-Woodland Hills, splits $30
million to help state parks that already are
at risk of closure stay open, complete over-
due maintenance and provide $10 million
to match donations from private groups and local governments
as a way to keep parks from closing.
The top parks ofcial resigned this summer after it was
revealed that some employees kept $54 million hidden in
department special funds for more than a decade, even as 70
parks were threatened with closure. Blumeneld said rogue
bureaucrats lied to all Californians and noted that hundreds of
individuals and organizations made donations to save the
parks.

Brown rode to Google headquarters in

Today were looking at science c-

Google has been developing

Obituaries Assemblyman, parents of teen killed
in crash laud new party bus law
Assemblyman Jerry Hill and the parents of
a teenager killed in a 2010 car accident after
drinking on a party bus
convened Tuesday at the
familys home in
Burlingame to celebrate a
new law aimed at prevent-
ing underage drinking on
charter buses.
Hill, D-San Mateo,
authored Assembly Bill
45, signed by Gov. Jerry
Brown on Sunday, which
will require party bus companies to determine
whether anyone under 21 is on the bus.
Customers who plan to have alcohol on a
bus must have an adult chaperone who is at
least 25 years old on board to ensure that no
minors are drinking.
Bus companies that violate the law, which
takes effect in January, would face a $2,000
ne and license suspension or revocation, and
drivers could be charged with a misdemeanor.
On Feb. 5, 2010, Brett Studebaker, 19, spent
several hours on a party bus, drinking and cel-
ebrating a friends 21st birthday.
At 2 a.m. the next day, the charter bus oper-
ators dropped off the passengers, including
Studebaker, who got into his Audi and
attempted to drive home. He was killed when
he crashed his car on Highway 101 in San
Mateo.
His father, Doug Studebaker, said at a news
conference at the familys Fey Drive home
Tuesday morning that the new law will hold
bus companies accountable and prevent
tragedies like the one that hit his family.
Its a privilege to have this law named after
Brett, Studebaker said. This has been a uni-
fying thing for our whole family.
Foster Citys public
works director to retire
After 40 years in the engineering profes-
sion, including the last seven years as Foster
Citys public works direc-
tor, Ray Towne will retire
on Dec. 28. City Manager
Jim Hardy has opened a
recruitment for the posi-
tion which he hopes to ll
by the end of the year.
Towne was part of devel-
oping Foster City into the
community it is today,
even before he became a
Foster City employee. In 1984, while working
for a private consulting rm, Towne was
assigned to work with Foster Citys Public
Works Department. He worked with city staff
off and on for the next 15 years doing infra-
structure planning, construction document
plan checking and construction review of
Metro Center, Vintage Park and dozens of res-
idential and commercial projects.
In 1999, Towne was rst hired as city engi-
neer and in 2005 he was appointed public
works director.
As public works director, Towne has over-
seen the operation of the departments 33
employees, an operating budget of $17 mil-
lion and a comprehensive Capital
Improvement Program.
Ray has seen the department through this
challenging economic time, ensuring that the
services our community has come to expect
continue in the high-quality manner that is
characteristic of the Foster City Public Works
Department, while working with his staff to
actively manage the cost of those services,
Hardy wrote in a statement.

S.F. City Hall ruins
from 1906 quake are unearthed
Construction crews have unearthed the mas-
sive foundations of the old San Francisco City
Hall destroyed in the disastrous 1906 earth-
quake.
The wreckage of the building and its 300-
foot dome became a famous symbol of the
quake.
Workers digging on Hyde Street near Fulton
Street for a landscaping project found the
ruins on Sept. 14.
Archaeologists from the federal General
Services Administration, which owns the
adjacent former federal building, were called
to examine the foundations.
We were surprised to see it, said Rebecca
Karberg, historic preservation specialist for
the GSA. You really never know whats
under the surface.
Workers broke ground on the original City
Hall in 1871, and the cornerstone was laid the
following year. The building opened in 1897
after design changes, cost overruns and politi-
cal scandals.

A San Francisco woman who ran over a
man hanging to her vehicle after she snatched
his cellphone in San Mateo and tried similar
grabs on other occasions was sentenced yes-
terday to two years in prison.
Meylin Jessica Reyes, 23, has 168 days
credit for time served against her two-year
term on charges of robbery, theft and assault.
She pleaded no contest last month to the
counts rather than stand trial. Reyes offered a
tearful apology in court and asked for proba-
tion, said District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe.
Reyes must serve the time in prison rather
than the local jail as part of realignment
because of the robbery conviction. She must
also pay restitution to the victims.
Prosecutors say on April 28 Reyes drove up
to the man who was walking near 22nd
Avenue in San Mateo and asked to borrow his
phone because her phone had died. The 35-
year-old man dialed the number for Reyes and
held the phone to her ear at
which time she grabbed
his wrist and phone before
driving away, according to
the District Attorneys
Ofce.
The man was dragged
300 to 400 feet down the
street before falling off and
Reyes reportedly ran him
over. The man suffered a
severed artery in his arm requiring surgery and
road rash to his face and body.
On May 2, Reyes reportedly used the same
ruse, once in San Mateo where the victim
handed over the phone and another at Stanford
University where police were able to detain
her.
Cellphones for both May 2 victims were
found in Reyes car, according to prosecutors
who said she committed similar thefts at
Stanford on April 11 and in Palo Alto on April
4.

A San Francisco man accused of groping
and grabbing a 9-year-old girl from a San
Mateo elementary school bathroom Friday
and giving vodka to two boys at another
school the same day appeared in court
Tuesday afternoon but did not enter pleas to
kidnapping, assault and molestation charges.
Bradley Mrozek, 25, did ask for a court-
appointed attorney and was ordered back to
court Oct. 2 to identify his lawyer and enter a
plea, said District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe.
He is also charged with misdmeanor counts
of trespassing on school grounds, child annoy-
ance and offering alcohol to a minor.
Mrozek was arrested Saturday for the
attempted abduction after police linked that
incident at Parkside Elementary School to
two others at Horrall Elementary and
Bayside STEM Academy.
Authorities say Mrozek groped the girl and
covered her mouth with his hand before cart-
ing her off campus just before 2:45 p.m. Sept.
21. A short distance away, the girl escaped by
kicking her attacker and running back to the
school where she reported the incident,
according to San Mateo police.
Mrozek is also accused of harassing two
girls and offering alcohol to two 12-year-old
boys at Bayside STEM Academy on Friday
and was also reportedly escorted from the
grounds of Horrall Elementary School by an
administrator who found his presence suspi-
cious.
He remains in custody without bail.
Anyone with information about Mrozek or
the incidents is asked to notify San Mateo
police at 533-7700.

Hip and Knee Replacement
Minimally Invasive Hip Surgery -
Direct Anterior Approach
By David Espo and Kasie Hunt
NEW YORK In a split-screen
race for the presidency, Republican
Mitt Romney and President Barack
Obama were on their best campaign
behavior in public Tuesday, all the
while slashing away at each other in
paid television ads.
In separate appearances in New
York, they swapped criticism on
foreign policy. But they did it
politely, without mentioning each
other by name.
Romney found fault with
Obamas approach to education, but
did so after paying a public compli-
ment to Arne Duncan, who has the
administrations Cabinet portfolio
for the subject.
There was an outbreak of self-
deprecating humor from Romney,
as well, as he received a glowing
introduction from former President
Bill Clinton before speaking to the
annual Clinton Global Initiative.
If theres one thing weve
learned this election season, its that
a few words from Bill Clinton can
do any man a lot of good, joked the
Republican candidate for the White
House, referring to the former pres-
idents strong speech on Obamas
behalf at the Democratic National
Convention earlier this month.
All I got to do now is wait a few
days for that bounce to happen,
Romney quipped.
Joking or not, it was as close as
the Republican challenger has come
to publicly acknowledging recent
polls showing Obama moving
ahead in several battleground states
and gaining ground in national sur-
veys.
Cut to the television ads, and the
political reality both campaigns are
trying to create for voters in battle-
ground states.
Of the five commercials the
Obama campaign says it is airing
most frequently, one accuses
Romney and running mate Paul
Ryan of backing a plan for
Medicare that would raise out-of-
pocket costs for seniors. Another
says the Republican challenger
favors tax cuts for millionaires that
could be paid for by reducing exist-
ing tax breaks for education expens-
es.
A third says Obama, not Romney,
has pushed back against Chinas
unfair trade policies. A fourth
asserts that part of Romneys per-
sonal fortune is invested in China
and says hes never stood up to the
country. All hes done is send them
our jobs, it says.
The Romney campaign listed six
ads currently airing, four of which
criticize Obama.
Dear Daughter. Welcome to
America, says the announcer in a
commercial that shows a young
baby. Your share of Obamas debt
is over $50,000.
Presidential campaign is nice, and then again not
By Julie Pace
CHICAGO Six weeks from
Election Day, President Barack
Obamas campaign has momentum
and a big case of nerves.
Top advisers are both relishing in
Obamas edge in key battleground
state polling and warning it can
change in an instant. Theyre wary
of the many factors that still could
derail the Democrats campaign,
from simmering tensions in the
Middle East to the three high-stakes
presidential debates. Theyre wor-
ried, too, about a ood of negative
advertisements from Republican-
leaning outside groups and potential
complacency among Democratic
voters and volunteers who think the
race is a lock for Obama.
Also weighing on them: unfore-
seen domestic or international
events that can shake up a close race
in the homestretch.
I can only worry about what I
can control, says Jim Messina,
Obamas campaign manager.
For now, that means the overall
campaign strategy.
Yet, even there, Obamas team is
being careful: the Democrat is con-
sidering making a late play for tra-
ditionally Republican Arizona
either to win it or to force rival Mitt
Romney to spend money to protect
GOP turf but advisers are weigh-
ing the potential that a move like
that could backre by leaving fewer
resources for more competitive
states.

A church volunteer accused of
inappropriate relationships with
young boys he met through graphic
online ads will stand trial in January
on more than four dozen counts of
lewd acts with a minor.
Brandon Lee Hamm, 37, of San
Francisco, pleaded not guilty to all
charges in three separate cases.
Hamm was also scheduled for jury
trial Jan. 7.
Hamm, a former volunteer with
the Peninsula Metropolitan
Community Church who has since
been suspended, was arrested by
South San
Francisco police
in June after an
ofcer posing as
a young boy
responded to his
online adver-
tisement seek-
ing horny
skater boys.
Over several
weeks, the two
reportedly exchanged emails includ-
ing graphic photographs from
Hamm and a detective who met him
at a prearranged spot reported him
having a backpack full of sex toys,
lubricant and child pornography.
Hamm was prepared to post bail
when investigators located another
alleged victim who was 14 when he
responded to a 2009 Craigslist ad
posted by Hamm.
He is also charged in the case of a
15-year-old boy who allegedly met
Hamm in October 2010 and contin-
ued a relationship with him through
his June 22 arrest.
Hamm returns to court Dec. 3 for
a pretrial conference prior to trial.
He remains in custody in lieu of
$200,000 bail.

Netanyahu and Dr. Strangelove
Editor,
Hey guys, cant you ght another lit-
tle war for me? Thats the take away
from Mr. Netanyahus latest round of
talk-show appearances. He sees another
opening with the increase of anti-
American demonstrations around the
world. We all forget that for the past 50
years we all have been under the
nuclear sword of Damocles with Russia
and ourselves, aiming thousands of
nukes at each other and still on hair
trigger alert. There is no security from
oblivion for anyone on this planet.
Weve lived with it thus far and hope-
fully we can continue to work toward
elimination of these really useless
weapons. Can terrorists obtain and use
these weapons for their own doomsday
scenarios? Again there is no guarantee
of anything in life outside death and
taxes. They can be bought or stolen
from any of the arsenals that litter the
planet. Why make one? Seen Dr.
Stangelove lately?

Letter to the editor
By Rose Jacobs Gibson
F
or 20 years, Kimberly Zedan
failed the system and the sys-
tem failed her.
Zedan has cycled in and out of San
Mateo County jail for a series of minor
crimes. So when a judge saw enough
failure and sentenced her to three
years, I almost died, she said.
Many would consider three years a
harsh sentence for petty theft with pri-
ors. But that was what Zedan needed.
I had to start thinking about what I
was going to do, she said. I had to
start taking advantage of the programs
they offer.
Finally, she has.
Every weekday at 6 a.m., Zedan, an
electronic monitoring bracelet afxed
to her right ankle, boards a bus to a
culinary arts program. She learns to
make osso buco, bake a variety of
bread and sear a steak just right.
Afterward, she takes the bus back to a
locked womens transitional facility
where she studies for her high school
equivalency exam.
She is 48.
Recently, the San Mateo County
Board of Supervisors has come under
criticism for approving plans to build a
replacement womens jail and increase
the number of beds for male inmates.
Perhaps oddly, the critics and our
Board of Supervisors agree on the
same goals: break the cycle of crime,
improve public safety and reduce the
number of people in custody. We dis-
agree on how to achieve those goals.
California is undergoing the most
sweeping changes to the criminal jus-
tice system in decades. Thousands of
inmates who were previously sent to
state prison are now being housed in
county jails to reduce overcrowding
and the states budget.
We all know the states dismal record
of corrections failure; approximately
two-thirds of felons released from state
prison return within three years.
We believe we will do better here
on the local level. What we need are
the right combination of facilities
and programs.
Despite having
one of the lowest
incarceration rates
in the state, both
our mens and
womens facilities
are severely over-
crowded. The
Womens
Correctional Center has a state-
approved rating to house 84 inmates
but typically houses from 120 to 150
women.
Its also an embarrassment: In one of
the most wealthy counties in
California, we have a womens jail that
oods in winter and lacks classrooms
and counseling areas. Pity the poor
inmate who is barred from hugging or
holding her children visitors and
inmates are separated by a thick win-
dow. Yet we know that keeping fami-
lies strong makes returning to the com-
munity smoother, reduces recidivism
and helps innocent children stay con-
nected to their mothers.
The main mens jail has a rated
capacity of 688 inmates yet typically
houses 900 or more. This provides an
unsafe environment for both inmates
and staff and limits the sheriffs ability
to provide educational and other pro-
grams.
It should also be pointed out that the
Board of Supervisors does not put peo-
ple in jail. Its our job to work to safely
house men and women in custody and
provide the programs and services that
can break the cycle of crime and there-
fore improve public safety.
We are making great strides in pro-
viding these programs. We currently
have a demonstration project under
way called Achieve 180, which helps
inmates transition from incarceration to
the community. We also provide train-
ing in culinary arts and provide drug
and alcohol counseling. But we need
more programs and we need the space
to operate them successfully.
Critics say many offenders should
not go to jail. They argue that
judges should order offenders to
participate in drug and alcohol
treatment or other programs that are
based in the community.
Dont be fooled by these feel-good
and overly simplistic arguments. It may
sound sad, but jail is the place where
many offenders truly hit rock bottom
and decide to chart a new course for
their life. Jail is also the place where
we can provide educational, counsel-
ing, treatment and vocational courses
these people need while they are away
from the negative inuences in their
lives.
Zedan, the lifelong offender, is fortu-
nate. First, she is serving her sentence
in our facilities rather in a far-off state
prison because of the states own over-
crowding problem.
Second, she landed a coveted spot in
a transitional program that is operated
separately from the overcrowded and
noisy Womens Correctional Center.
The transitional program offers intense
services and provides structure while
requiring inmates to be responsible or
risk returning to the Correctional
Center.
Zedan said it was the hammer of a
long sentence that nally snapped her
out of her cycle. With time credits, she
is due to be released within the month
and plans to move out of the area,
away from bad inuences and bad
memories.
She said others in her culinary pro-
gram have received excellent jobs in
the kitchens of major Silicon Valley
companies, at caterers and ne restau-
rants. She came up just short in her last
test for her high school exam but
pledges to pass the next time.
You get a skill that you can take
out. You dont have to go back to the
criminal life, she said. How many
women do you know who got a job by
going to jail?
Rose Jacobs Gibson is a member of the
San Mateo County Board of Supervisors.
Moving from jail to a job
It boggles the mind!
T
his column was rst published on Sept. 27, 2011.
Since then, Assembly Bill 25 has been signed and
the issue has received more attention especially
since the NFL is being sued by 2,000 former players. After
reading the articles on this subject in Sundays San Francisco
Chronicle, I feel this column
bears repeating.
History records no more
gallant struggle than that of
humanity against the truth.
Ashleigh Brilliant.
Im sure glad my sons
werent into football in high
school. One loved baseball.
The other joined his friends
in such athletic activities as
sliding down the hill at Green
Hills Country Club on blocks
off ice in the middle of the
night. Had they been caught,
they may have been charged
with trespassing, but the chance of concussion was very
slim.
When babies are born, we are very concerned about their
safety. Cribs, car seats and other paraphernalia for babies are
regularly recalled because of even minor problems that
might lead to injury. Move on up to the fact that they cant
get a drivers license until age 16 and theres a law against
drinking alcohol until age 21. But for many boys (and their
fathers) from junior high school on, the dream is to make the
football team.
In early August, it was appalling to read a report about a
high school football player who had suffered severe head
injury, had been in a coma for some time and had brain sur-
gery and much therapy. Once he was considered to have
recovered, he was back on the team, with his fathers
approval. Its very disturbing to think what could be in store
for this young man when you consider the following.
An article that appeared on Aug. 21 highlighted a former
49er who, as a result of concussions while playing football,
has had nine brain surgeries and has been suffering from
short-term memory loss for many years since. He says hes
a walking and talking illustration of a tragedy that has over-
taken a growing number of retired football players. We are
informed that The NFL, after years of disputing any conclu-
sive link between concussions and long-term brain impair-
ment has begun acknowledging the games toll on the head.
It informs us that last month, 74 former players alleged the
league and helmet maker Riddell concealed information
about concussions for decades. Not only is this outrageous,
isnt it also criminal?
Youd think that there would have long ago been a vigor-
ous campaign to deal with the situation. But it seems no one
took the brain damage issue seriously. In the zeal to white-
wash the whole thing, future ramications of such injuries
were conveniently overlooked because in the United States
football is sacrosanct a national obsession. Apparently, no
matter how many lives may be ruined or how much suffering
results, nothing must interfere! After all, if a guy plays foot-
ball hes a real man tough, macho, a pride and joy for his
parents, an All-American boy!
The author of a recent editorial Aug. 29 titled, High
school football risk demands study, states that there should
be more and better medical information dispatched to par-
ents, that the helmet manufacturers should be held to higher
standards, and that coaches managing games and facing
high pressure to win arent left only to their own devices. ...
Californians will have to consider curtailing their sons par-
ticipation until safety standards are upgraded, it read.
And then, on Aug. 30, the Daily Journal reported the sad-
dest story of all. A young high school student committed sui-
cide, which was believed to be the result of a severe concus-
sion while playing football. If you were his parents, how
would you feel about the game? Wouldnt you be up in arms
because the truth about the risks of playing such a violent
game has been soft-pedaled for so long? Why do we, as a
culture, encourage young boys to play a game that can have
such mind-boggling consequences? Is the game worth the
price? Isnt it way past time to take this situation seriously?
As I write this, a bill (AB 25) that requires athletes ages 6
to 14 suspected of having concussions or head injury to be
sidelined for the rest of the days practice or game and not
return until cleared by a health professional is waiting for
approval on Gov. Jerry Browns desk. The fact that it
includes a concussion information sheet as required read-
ing for athletes and their parents is, I suppose, better than
nothing, but still terribly inadequate.
Maybe if theres enough publicity about the damage to the
brain that occurs in so many football players, some parents
will forbid their sons to participate. Maybe the helmets that
have been found to be inadequate will be recalled like defec-

NEW YORK A quiet day on Wall
Street turned into the worst sell-off in
three months after a Federal Reserve of-
cial said he doubted the banks effort to
boost economic growth would work.
Charles Plosser, president of the Feds
Philadelphia branch, told an audience
Tuesday that the Feds effort to support
the economy would likely fall short of its
goals.
The speech probably startled some
investors who had faith in the Feds latest
plan, said Jack Ablin, chief investment
ofcer Harris Private Bank. The plan
includes buying $40 billion in mortgage
bonds each month until the economy
improves.
So many investors have bought into the
illusion, he said. And it was like Plosser
pulled up the curtain on the Wizard of
Oz.
The Standard & Poors 500 index lost
15.30 points, its fourth straight decline, to
close at 1,441.59. The 1.05 percent drop
was the worst for the S&P since June 25.
The Dow Jones industrial average lost
101.37 points to close at 13,457.55.
Caterpillar tugged the Dow down, losing 4
percent. The worlds largest maker of bull-
dozers and other heavy equipment said
late Monday that slower economic growth
around the world dampened its earnings
forecast. Its stock sank $3.86 to $87.01.
Stocks enjoyed one of their biggest ral-
lies of the year Sept. 6 after Mario Draghi,
the president of the European Central
Bank, laid out a plan to buy unlimited
amounts of government bonds to lower
borrowing costs for Europes debt-bur-
dened countries.
A week later, Fed Chairman Ben
Bernanke announced the central banks
open-ended mortgage bond-buying pro-
gram and pledged to hold interest rates at
super-low levels into 2015.
The S&P soared to a nearly ve-year
closing high of 1,465 the next day, Sept.
14, but has drifted lower since and fallen
back almost to where it was before
Bernankes announcement.
On Tuesday, three economic reports
gave the stock market a nudge in morning
trading. House prices rose in major cities
for a third straight month, and a gauge of
consumer condence came in surprisingly
high.
More surprising than those two eco-
nomic reports was the Richmond Federal
Reserves strong reading on regional man-
ufacturing, a recent trouble spot, said Phil
Orlando, chief equity strategist at
Federated Investors.

WASHINGTON Airline passen-
gers can expect fewer carriers to choose
from, fewer ights to smaller cities and
more baggage and other fees as the
industry continues to grapple with high
fuel prices and a weak economy, accord-
ing to a government report released
Tuesday.
The airline industry is still in transi-
tion after a tumultuous decade in which
bankruptcies and mergers cut the num-
ber of airlines accounting for the bulk of
domestic ights in half, to just ve:
American, Delta, Southwest, United and
US Airways, the report by the
Department of Transportations inspec-
tor general said. If US Airways and
American which are in merger dis-
cussions were to combine, that would
drop to four.
There are dozens of other airlines in
the U.S., but collectively those smaller
carriers account for less than 15 percent
of total passenger trafc. Twelve years
ago, there were ten major U.S. airlines
accounting for 90 percent of domestic
ights. But high fuel prices, the 2008
recession and a slow economic recovery
have taken a toll, the report said.
In 2000, fuel costs were just 10 per-
cent of airline operating expenses. Fuel
costs peaked at 40 percent of expenses in
2008, outdistancing payroll as the air-
lines biggest expense. Last year, fuel
accounted for 35 percent of expenses.
Less competition has enabled airlines
to try to offset higher costs by eliminat-
ing less profitable flights to smaller
cities, the report said. Airlines cut the
number of scheduled domestic ights by
14 percent between June 2007 and June
2012, the report said.

BlackBerry maker plants
seeds for comeback attempt
SAN JOSE Research In Motion CEO Thorsten Heins is
promising to restore the BlackBerry phones stature as a trail-
blazing device even as many investors fret about its potential

mobile applications developers to rally support for the upcom-
ing release of BlackBerry 10, a new operating system that
Research In Motion Ltd. is touting as its salvation after years of
blundering wiped out some $80 billion in shareholder wealth.
With BlackBerry 10 still four to six months away from hit-

NDNU GETS NATIONAL ATTENTION: ARGOS MENS SOCCER TEAM RANKED NO. 14 IN THE NATION IN DIVISION II >>> PAGE 16
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The offensive reworks were out in full
force last Saturday night in the College of San
Mateos 60-35 win over Modesto College.
The 95 total points is a new record for the 87-
year rivalry.
But the man behind the brightest lights was
CSM quarterback John Willis, who has shown
consistent improvement week to week for the
Bulldogs.
He took a huge step forward, said Tim
Tulloch, CSM assistant head coach and defen-
sive coordinator. Thats what a true dual-
threat weapon gives you. John is really start-
ing to develop that chemistry with the
receivers and thats where you start to see that
balanced attack that is much harder to
defend.
Willis torched the Modesto defense to the
tune of six touchdowns three passing to
Mr. A.C. himself, Aaron Criswell, and three
rushing to ice the game in the fourth quarter
for the Bulldogs.
Willis and Criswell stepped up huge for
the Bulldogs on Saturday since, once
again, CSM fell behind early to their oppo-
nent. In four wins this season, the Bulldogs
have been behind early in the first quarter
every single game.
I dont understand it, Tulloch said. Its a
consistency thing. But, what I do like is the
guys nd ways to nish. And thats something
that you cant shake your stick at. At times,
were inconsistent, were also playing against
very good teams who are able to strike at any
time. And, if we lose focus at all, they make
you pay. These teams, if you ease up a little
bit, if theres one weakness they nd, they
exploit it and they exploit it well.
They dont panic at all, which is a good
thing, Tulloch said of his team. Sometimes,
when you run away with games early ... your
team never faces any adversity. So, when you
get into a conference game and the team
punches you in the mouth and theyve never
faced adversity before, the wheels come off a
little bit. So, if theres any kind of silver lin-
ing, Id say thats what it is. We know how to
rebound, we know how to ght back when
were behind. It prepares you in some way.
After taking the rst punch from Modesto,
the CSM defense settled down nicely, allow-
ing the offense to build some momentum and
score 34 unanswered points.
Our front seven, they were lights out,
Tulloch said. They did a tremendous job all

Carlmont prevails
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
They say athletes need to have a short mem-
ory in order to put failure behind them, know-
ing that there is a chance for success on the
next play.
Kallan Bedard, the outside hitter for the
Carlmont volleyball team, needed to have
amnesia Tuesday as the Scots took on host San
Mateo in a Peninsula Athletic League Bay
Division matchup. The senior hitter nished
with a career-high 29 kills to lead the Scots to
a 25-15, 24-26, 26-24, 25-20 victory.
Today, it was crazier than usual, Bedard
said, adding she was set 81 times in the match.
Usually our team is pretty [balanced] hitting.
Carlmont coach Chris Crader said his team
was without senior middle blocker Charlotte
Jackman, who injured her ankle playing soccer
over the weekend. That forced Crader to
employ a pair of freshmen in the middle,
which is not their normal position.
As such, Bedard was called on often.
Were setting our best hitters. We got to go
where our money is, Crader said. Were still
working on diversifying our offense.
In addition to Bedards career night, junior
outside hitter Ella McDonough also had a
career match, nishing with 14 kills. Libero
April Smith had a career-high 27 digs, 11 of
which came in Game 4 and junior setter
Amelia Tupou nished with 45 assists, 12
digs, six kills and a pair of blocks.
I want the ball every time. So do all my
teammates, Bedard said. Thats why Im on
the outside.
When asked if she was going to go home
and ice her shoulder, Bedard disagreed.
Probably my feet, Bedard said. I can feel
some blisters coming on.
Carlmont (3-0 PAL Bay, 7-8 overall) needed
contributions from everyone as San Mateo (1-
2, 3-6) tested the Scots all match long.
[We] played hard. [We] played well, at
times, said San Mateo coach Chris Tigno.
[Carlmont] has some big hitters.

CSMwater polo ready for Coast opener
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A week ago, College of San Mateo
womens water polo coach Randy Wright was
chomping at the bit for another shot at Merced
College.
The Bulldogs, who have never beaten
Merced, took on the Blue Devils at the West
Valley tournament and fell 10-7 after playing
a promising rst half of water polo. Wright
followed that loss by saying that the gap
between his young Bulldogs and Merced was-
nt too large to overcome and come the fol-
lowing week at the Cabrillo tourney, CSM
might have what it takes to finally beat
Merced.
Unfortunately for the Bulldogs, it wasnt
meant to be. Four games in two days produced
a 2-2 record that includes another loss to
Merced, 9-5. In that game, CSM played tough
in quarters one and two, but wore down given
their furious pace of play.
Four games in two days just isnt the t
right now for our squad, Wright said. We
dont have a deep bench and were more of a
tempo, accelerator type of team. [But theres]
no real harm in the losses we had. In the long
run, itll get us if theres a tiebreaker.
The preseason schedule is done for the
Bulldogs. In nine games, they earned a 5-4
record. Now, all the attention moves to Laney
College on Friday for the Coast Conference
opener.
Here we go, Wright said. Its go time
now. Hopefully the games weve had, the edu-
cation weve had and the repetition in the pool

ARLINGTON, Texas George Kottaras hit a
leadoff homer in the 10th inning and the Oakland
Athletics moved within four games of the AL West
lead by beating the rst-place Texas Rangers 3-2
Tuesday night.
The As began the day two games ahead of the
Los Angeles Angels for the second AL wild-card
spot. The Angels played later against Seattle.
Texas magic number remained at ve for
clinching its third straight division crown.
Scheduled starter Yu Darvish was scratched by
the Rangers about 2 1/2 hours before the rst pitch
because of a stiff neck. Scott Feldman took his
place.
The As lost the opener of the four-game series
5-4 Monday night. The teams play ve more times
over the nal eight games of the season.
Evan Scribner (1-0) earned his rst career victo-
ry with a perfect 10th, and Grant Balfour got three
outs for his 21st save in 23 chances.
Kottaras hit a 3-2 fastball from Mark Lowe (0-
2) into the rst row of the upper deck in right eld.
The catcher has six home runs for the As since he
was acquired July 29 from Milwaukee.
Oakland has played ve consecutive one-run
games, winning two.
Chris Carter hit a solo homer for the As with
two outs in the fourth to tie the score at 2. He came
into the game in a 6-for-45 funk with 27 strikeouts
over his last 14 games.
Feldman was removed after allowing a leadoff
single to Kottaras in the fth. The right-hander
allowed two runs and four hits in four-plus innings
before being relieved by Michael Kirkman.

SAN FRANCISCO The San Francisco
Giants have no plans to bring back suspended
outelder Melky Cabrera for the postseason if
the club is still playing when he is eligible to
return.
Manager Bruce Bochy
said Tuesday that he and
general manager Brian
Sabean are meeting to
nalize their 25-man ros-
ter for the best-of-five
division series. Cabrera
would be allowed to play
in the NLCS if the Giants
advance that far, but at
this stage, at least they have no intention of
adding him to the roster at any point in the
postseason.
An announcement regarding Cabrera is
expected before the NL West champions leave
town after a three-game series against Arizona
that began Tuesday night.
First, they would need to alert all the parties
involved: Cabrera, Major League Baseball
and the players union. Cabrera can start work-
ing out at instructional league in Arizona 10
days before his suspension ends, so that factor
weighs into the mix.
Right now, well discuss that. Well proba-
bly have something before the end of this
homestand as far as Melky, Bochy said.
Were talking about a lot of things, and thats
one of them. Ill probably have an answer for
you before we leave here to go down to San
Diego. I think both on our side and Melkys
side, youre getting down to the time period
where he can start working out and doing
some things. I think he needs to know and we
need to know.
San Franciscos 40-man roster is full, so
adding Cabrera would mean making a roster
move or they would likely release Cabrera.
Cabrera, the All-Star game MVP, is batting
.346, which is the highest mark in the
National League.
He was suspended for 50 games Aug. 15 for
a positive testosterone test. On Friday,
Cabrera asked to be removed from contention
for the batting crown, saying he had no wish
to win a tainted title.
The Giants have succeeded without
Cabreras big bat, clinching their second divi-
sion crown in three seasons Saturday night
against San Diego. And they are pushing
ahead with the roster they have.
Right now, were focusing on the future
and whats going to happen, the playoffs.
Were not thinking about that, center elder
Angel Pagan said. Theyll make the deci-
sions. We are the soldiers. If they bring him,
were teammates. Well receive him with open
arms. But if not, hey, weve got to respect the
decision and move on, move forward.
Reliever Jeremy Affeldt has said he wants
to ght with the faces who are currently in the
clubhouse as theyve done just ne in the
month-plus playing without Cabrera.
Exactly, and Im sure thats the way the
team thinks, too, Pagan said. I respect any
decision that the team makes. We have a job
to do. And we have the mentality to go out
there and nish the season strong and start the
playoffs the right way.
Catcher Buster Posey said the Giants will
accept whatever the front office decides
regarding Cabrera, who is set to become a
free agent after the season.
I dont think it would bother us than just
the extra questions, he said. That would be
the main thing, the extra questions.
Poseys .332 batting average was third in
the NL behind Cabrera and Pittsburghs
Andrew McCutchen (.336) entering games
Tuesday night. Cabrera was batting .346 with
11 home runs and 60 RBIs in his rst season
with San Francisco and is ve hits shy of
1,000 in his big league career.
Ive been outspoken on the penalties. If he
serves his suspension and pays the price,
whatever it is, you guys know I spoke out and
said I think there needs to be more of a deter-
rent, but if he serves his penalty, I guess Im
really not against it. Thats their decision,
Arizona manager Kirk Gibson said. If hes
caught again, I think he should be done.
Giants not planning to
use Cabrera in postseason

Giants fall to Arizona
SAN FRANCISCO Paul Goldschmidt hit a
three-run homer and a pair of sacrice ies for a
career-high ve RBIs, and the Arizona
Diamondbacks beat the NL West champion San
Francisco Giants 7-2 on Tuesday night.
Goldschmidt on his own
gave Josh Collmenter (5-3)
plenty of support as Arizona
won for the seventh time in
its last nine games. The D-
backs are trying to keep
their slim NL wild-card
hopes alive.
Aaron Hill had three hits
and scored three runs, and
Arizona also scored two of
its runs on wild pitches on a
cool night featuring swirling mist above the eld
in the early innings.
Tim Lincecum (10-15) had his start pushed
back two games from Sunday after San
Francisco clinched its second division crown in
three years with a win against San Diego on
Saturday night.
The two-time NL Cy Young Award winner
lost for the rst time in ve starts since Aug. 26
at Atlanta. He had won his previous two outings
and three straight decisions.
You could count on Kirk Gibson writing
Goldschmidt into the lineup against Lincecum.
The slugger is batting .571 (8 for 14) with ve
home runs and 10 RBIs for his career against the
right-hander.
Goldschmidt hit a sacrice y a long y to
left that surely would have cleared the fences
elsewhere and even here during a day game
and Aaron Hill scored on a wild pitch as Arizona
took a quick 2-0 lead. Goldschmidt hit his 19th
home run and fth of his career off Lincecum in
the third, then added another sacrice y in the
fth.
Marco Scutaro doubled leading off the fourth
for a career-best 13-game hitting streak, longest
active run in the National League. Buster Posey
doubled him home two batters later, stepping
into the batters box to chants of M-V-P! M-V-
P! from the sellout crowd of 41,153 at AT&T
Park. He needs one RBI for 100 this season.
Manager Bruce Bochy pulled several of his
regulars early. Sub Ryan Theriot hit an RBI dou-
ble in the eighth.
Collmenter allowed two hits and one run,
struck out four and walked two in ve innings.
He started for the rst time since July 27 against
the Mets, but has won each of his last three starts.
He had made six relief appearances since.
Lincecum, caught again by rookie Hector
Sanchez, fell behind in a hurry. He was done
after four innings, tagged for seven runs on ve
hits with three strikeouts and four walks.
A trio of Texas relievers combined to allow
one hit in ve scoreless innings before Lowe
gave up the decisive run.
Oakland starter Tommy Milone gave up
three straight singles to start the game before
retiring 15 of his next 16 batters. The young
lefty yielded two unearned runs and six hits
over six innings.
Ian Kinsler and Elvis Andrus opened the rst
with consecutive singles.
Josh Hamilton lined a single to right that
went under Brandon Moss glove, allowing
Kinsler and Andrus to score on the error.
Moss, who played his 21st game in the out-
eld this season, started in right for a slumping
Josh Reddick mired in an 0-for-28 slump.
Reddick came in as a pinch-hitter and lined
out to end the eighth.
Moss made up for his misplay with a run-
ning catch of Andrus deep y on the warning
track with the bases loaded to end the seventh.
Daric Barton, making his second start since
being recalled from Triple-A Sacramento on
Sept. 10, had an RBI double in the second to
cut Oaklands decit to 2-1.
NOTES: Oakland CF Coco Crisp came in as
a pinch-runner in the eighth and stole second.
He was not in the starting lineup for the sev-
enth game in a row because of an eye infection.
... Andrus came into the game in a 4-for-32
slump. ... The As struck out 15 times and have
1,322 for the season, two short of the AL
record set in 2007 by Tampa Bay. ... Former
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Roger Staubach
was in a front-row seat near the Texas dugout.

NFL upholds Seahawks disputed win over Packers
NEW YORK The NFL put its stamp of
approval on the still-smoldering outcome of
the Green Bay-Seattle game:
Wrong call.
Right review.
Wrong team still wins.
Seahawks 14, Packers 12.
With frustration mounting among coaches,
players and fans, the worst fear nally materi-
alized: a mistake by a replacement ofcial
would decide the outcome of a game.
It came while the NFL and its regular of-
cials, locked out since June, were in resumed
talks in an attempt to resolve the impasse.
That was still a day late for the Packers.
The asco, which unfolded on the promi-
nent stage of Monday Night Football, was
deconstructed by the league Tuesday in a way
that surely rendered little comfort for
Cheeseheads.
The NFL said Seattles last-second touch-
down pass should not have counted because
Seahawks receiver Golden Tate should have
been called for offensive pass interference,
ending the game with Green Bay winning.
Instead, ofcials ruled it a touchdown, and
penalties either way are not reviewable.
That left it to whether Tate and Green Bay
safety M.D. Jennings both had possession of
the ball. The ofcials said they did, but the
Packers insisted Jennings had clear possession
for a game-ending interception. The NFL
agreed that the replay was inconclusive,
upholding the touchdown and giving Seattle
the victory.
Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers, nor-
mally a soft-spoken player who didnt say
much after the loss, lashed out on his radio
show Tuesday..
First of all, Ive got to do something that
the NFL is not going to do: I have to apologize
to the fans, he said on ESPN 540-AM in
Milwaukee.
Even President Barack Obama got in on
the conversation Tuesday, tweeting: NFL
fans on both sides of the aisle hope the
refs lockout is settled soon.
The controversy began on the nal play
when Russell Wilson heaved a 24-yard pass
into a scrum in the end zone with Seattle trail-
ing 12-7. Tate shoved away a defender with
both hands, and he and Jennings got their
hands on the ball.
It was pinned to my chest the whole time,
Jennings said.
Instead, the ofcials ruled on the eld that
the two had simultaneous possession, which
counts as a reception.
The NFL Ofciating Department reviewed
the video today and supports the decision not
to overturn the on-eld ruling following the
instant replay review, the league said in a
statement.
Saying there was no indisputable evidence,
though, is not the same as conrming the ini-
tial call was correct.
The Packers, one of sports most storied
franchises and Super Bowl champs two years
ago, fell to 1-2. The Seahawks are 2-1.
Fans fascination with the nish was evident
in the number who stayed with ESPN to
watch the highlights on SportsCenter after
the game: 6.5 million viewers, the most for the
full-length show since records started being
kept in 1990.
On his weekly appearance on Seattle radio
station 710 KIRO-AM, Seahawks coach Pete
Carroll made no apologies Tuesday, saying,
The league backed it up and game over. We
win.

AMPLIFIED CAPTIONED SPEECH ASSIST PICTURE DIAL PORTABLE
day. We had 19 hits on the quarterback, six
sacks. That was a bright spot for us. The guys
in the trenches said hey, were going to make
this is a physical game and were going to
make it a smash mouth game and it showed.
Modesto made a game of things by using
the big play and outscoring CSM 21-6 in the
third quarter. Before the Bulldogs could right
the ship, Modesto took that 27-point decit
and trimmed it to ve. But CSM turned up the
intensity in the fourth quarter and shut out
Modesto in that period.
I think we wore them down, just playing
hard play after play after play, Tulloch said.
Some of the scores that we gave up, they
were momentum swings and we have to be
able to right momentum when it starts going
in the other direction.
As is the theme for CSM this season, the
opponents dont get any easier. Come
Saturday, the Bulldogs take on the less-explo-
sive San Joaquin Delta. After two straight
weeks of 500-plus yard offenses, CSM will
battle a defense in San Joaquin that is allow-
ing less than 20 points a game.
Theyre outstanding, Tulloch said. They
play hard. Theyre a zone blitz defense. They
blitz you from different angles. They try to
disrupt you and wreak havoc. Theyve done a
very good job of that. This is an extremely
well-coached football team and its also a
very talented football team.
CSMs weapons will have to be ready.
Along with Willis and Criswell, Quincy
Nelson had a huge game for CSM against
Modesto. The running back carried the ball
only 12 times but gained 159 yards.
[Hes] a speed and space guy, Tulloch
said. You get him the ball in open space and
hes electric with the ball in his hands. You
never see the rst guy take Quincy down.
Defensively, the Bulldogs must contend
with sophomore quarterback Sam Hutsell,
who does a great job of spreading the ball
around to a bevy of San Joaquin receivers.
Theyre a spread offense, Tulloch said.
They run the ball well. They throw it all over
the place. The quarterback is a playmaker.
They give you all kinds of different forma-
tions. They had Butte on their heels. Theyre
going to test you in a lot of different ways
they have some weapons. Theyre going to
give you a whole lot of things you have to pre-
pare for.
CSM
will come out to success. Weve made some
adjustments. Weve added to our body of
work and were going to have a few different
looks that I would have loved to have done,
but at the same time, I didnt do it because I
didnt want them (CSMs opponents) to
know.
On paper, Laney poses a small threat to
CSM. Wright said his Bulldogs wont over-
look their conference foe, but realistically,
that Merced itch is still there. And Game 2 on
the conference schedule provides CSM with
yet another shot at their rival.
Our preparation right now is a week from
Wednesday, Wright said. Its not that theyre
(Merced) doing anything creative, or anything
thats great, theyre just taking advantage of
our missed opportunities. So, if were on a
counter, and miss a 2-on-1, now they have
numbers the other way and theyre putting the
ball in the cage. So credit to them and their
keeper for stopping that and giving them the
opportunity based on our missed chances.
Missed opportunities, of the crystal clear
variety no less, have been a theme for the
young Bulldogs in 2012. When relaying men-
tal recaps of the his teams games, Wright
often points out a handful of chances that
CSM has let slip. Those, more often than not,
have resulted in goals for the other team.
I think the bottom line with this team is:
you have to put the ball in the back of the net
if you want to succeed, Wright said. There
was a denite improvement [this weekend].
The turnovers have come down. The way
weve executed our offense is denitely an
improvement. In the end, its got to go in. We
get a lot of open looks and when you get those
open looks, you have to be hungry.
CSM has a couple of proven weapons in
Erica Staben and Miya Oto. Jasmine Zaldivar
scored four goals in a 10-4 win over West
Valley last Friday. Staben, the former Menlo-
Atherton Bear, currently leads the team in
scoring. And even without her, CSM proved
they can win a match. In their 6-4 victory over
Cuesta College, Staben fouled out. But
CSMs defense stepped up and held on to the
win.
The Bulldogs have had to learn a ton on the
y and come their match against Merced,
theyll have to put it all into play if theyre
going to win. Wright didnt short-change the
magnitude of this early-season matchup a
loss puts the Bulldogs behind the 8-ball in the
tough Coast Conference.
When we enter the conference schedule,
its important to get wins, Wright said.
[Against Merced,] were going to have to
mix things up. Merced is a good team and to
keep them off-balanced, I think we do have,
looking and analyzing what we have on
defense against them, were coming together
in terms of which one works best. I think the
defense that we turn out will be something
completely different than what weve done
just based on the statistics of their team and
their tendencies, what their strengths are.
The fact that they havent seen everything
we have to show is important because you
never know what kind of zone to expect from
CSM. Or are they going to run a press? And it
makes things tough for opponents.
POLO
The match hinged on Game 3. After drop-
ping the rst set 25-15, the Bearcats grabbed
momentum in Game 2, winning seven of the
nal 10 points to pull out a 26-24 win. They
carried that over to Game 3, where they
jumped out to a big lead early and were
poised to blow out the Scots. San Mateo even-
tually built a 19-11 lead, but a kill from
Bedard gave Carlmont a sideout and then the
Scots went to work. Behind the serving of
Amanda Morris, Carlmont reeled off a 6-0 run
to close the San Mateo lead to 19-18.
The Bearcats regrouped briey to take a 22-
20 lead, but Carlmont won six of the nal
eight points to take Game 3 and bring the
momentum back to the Scots.
I think we all pushed really hard, Bedard
said. We did a good job coming back. San
Mateo put up a pretty good ght.
San Mateo didnt show any adverse affects
of the Game 3 loss early in Game 4 as the
Bearcats took a quick 3-1 lead. But the Scots
won seven of the next eight points to take an
8-4 lead.
The Bearcats had one last gasp in them,
however, and trailing 14-11, they got back-to-
back kills from Angelica Petelo and one from
Cami Mauricio to tie the score at 14.
After the teams exchanged points, Bedard
took over. Following a quick kill from Tupou,
Bedard recorded four straight kills to turn a
16-16 tie into a 22-16 Carlmont lead. A cou-
ple of Carlmont hitting errors gave San Mateo
some hope, but a San Mateo hitting error, cou-
pled with kills from McDonough and Tupou
gave the Scots the victory.
[The match] was pretty close all the way
around, Tigno said.
San Mateo was led by Petelo, who nished
with a team-high 14 kills. Cami Mauricio had
13 kills while Bella Mauricio added eight.

Ertz is No. 8 Stanfords top tight end
STANFORD The play that intro-
duced Zach Ertz to most of the country,
a 37-yard touchdown catch for
Stanfords winning score against
Southern California, has a tting name.
The route requires fancy footwork to
fake inside, then out, then back inside,
and in this case involved slipping
between defensive backs after the catch
and diving into the end zone. The play,
called Trojan, also had been designed
for an undersized slot receiver not a
6-foot-6, 252-pound tight end with a
basketball background.
The only tight end Ive been around
that can run that route is Todd Heap,
said Stanford coach David Shaw, refer-
ring to the Baltimore Ravens rst-round
pick in 2001, now with the Arizona
Cardinals. Just as far as him being able
to have that body control, the quickness
and the agility. That route is usually for
a 6-foot, 180-pound receiver that can
make that triple move.
In the absence of Coby Fleener this
season, Ertz has gone from a two-sport
star at Monte Vista High School in San
Franciscos East Bay to Stanfords top
touchdown threat and latest NFL-caliber
tight end.
While his go-ahead score against USC
showed off his athleticism to a national
television audience, Ertzs excellence
has been known for years around the
campus for the eighth-ranked Cardinal
(3-0, 1-0 Pac-12), who play at
Washington (2-1) in their first road
game of the season Thursday night.
Take last spring for instance.
Some of the football players annually
scrimmage the womens soccer team,
which just so happened to be the reign-
ing NCAA champion. Ertz and fellow
tight end Levine Toilolo, who stands at
6-foot-8, alternated at goalie to lead the
football team to a 5-4 upset.
So what happened on those four
goals?
Levine was the rst half goalie, Ertz
said, chuckling. I think they had three
in the rst half.
Ertz has had a chance to shine more
this season with Fleener, drafted 34th
overall by the Indianapolis Colts along
with top pick Andrew Luck, now gone.
But he has always stood out around
the end zone.
Of the 52 passes for 682 yards Ertz
has caught in two-plus seasons, 10 have
been for touchdowns. Coaches and
teammates rave about his route running
and soft hands, giant mitts that can catch
or squeeze some by surprise dur-
ing an introduction.
Ertz catches about 100 balls from a
machine every day. He also spends extra
time with new quarterback Josh Nunes
after practice and in the study room
and not just looking over football.
Both are management, science and
engineering majors. Theyve worked on
several group projects, including one
last year comparing Nikes marketing
strategy to other brands for a business
class. This quarter, both are in MS&E
189, a course on social networks.
Coincidence or not, the redshirt junior
is one of Nunes most reliable targets
and a nightmare for defensive backs
everywhere.
Hes a great route runner and he
knows how to use his body and shield
you, said Stanford safety Jordan
Richards, who leads the nation in passes
defended this season. Hes a big guy.
You dont want to be playing behind
him, because you wont see the ball.
Youll see the ball caught.
Ertzs skills on the eld took time to
evolve.
Also a power forward in high school,
he credits his basketball pedigree for his
hand-eye coordination and ability to
box out defenders for jump balls in
the end zone. Along with Fleener and
Toilolo, he was even among those
Stanford coach Johnny Dawkins had
inquired about for his team once on
campus but playing basketball, even
recreationally, is still kind of a no-no
from the football coaches for fear of
injury, Ertz said.
Some players such as receiver Drew
Terrell, running back Stepfan Taylor and
defensive end Josh Mauro play occa-
sionally in the offseason. As for the team
that usually wins, Ertz smiled and said:
The tight ends are the best position
group.
Shaw is quick to point out that Ertzs
basketball background actually hindered
him at rst, often getting him called for
pass interference or illegal contact
downeld for using his hands too much.
Once Ertz realized his footwork was
enough to shake off defenders, the rest
has come naturally, including one-hand-
ed grabs that are becoming customary.
With a pair of big wins last week, the Notre Dame de Namur

said coach BJ Noble
in press release. We
are very excited to be
in the poll, but we
also know there is a

In addition to the national ranking, the Argos are ranked No.
2 in the West Region.
Since losing to Seattle Pacic to open the season, which is
ranked No. 3 in the nation, the Argos have ripped off six
straight victories. They opened PacWest Conference play last
week with a come-from-behind 2-1 win over Dixie State and
followed that with a huge a 3-1 win over Grand Canyon

NHL, union to resume talks Friday in New York
TORONTO The NHL and its
players union are to resume bar-
gaining Friday for the rst time
since the lockout began, although
the talks will concentrate on sec-
ondary economic issues.
Deputy commissioner Bill Daly
and NHL Players Association
special counsel Steve Fehr met
Tuesday in Toronto and set up the
session, which will be in New
York. These will be the first for-
mal negotiations since Sept. 12,
when the players and owners
exchanged proposals.
The lockout started Sept. 16,
when training camps were to open.
This is the third lockout since Gary
Bettman became commissioner in
1993. The last lockout wiped out the
2004-05 season and ended when
players accepted a salary cap.
With the league and union far
apart on money, both sides decided
to discuss other economic issues
that also are necessary for an agree-
ment. Fehr said the topics will
include pension and medical plans,
schedule rules, drug testing and the
grievance procedure.
Top ofcials from the NHL and
NHLPA met Monday to review last
seasons economics and complete
escrow payments due players. The
labor contract was not discussed.
Obviously, weve got to talk
before you can get a deal, so I think
its important to get the talks going
again, Daly said Monday. But you
also have to have something to say.
I think its fair to say we feel like we
need to hear from the players asso-
ciation in a meaningful way because
I dont think that theyve really
moved off their initial proposal,
which was made more than a month
ago now.
The St. Louis Blues laid off what
is believed to just under 20 front-
ofce workers, the St. Louis Post-
Dispatch reported Tuesday. The
Florida Panthers and Ottawa
Senators already have had layoffs.
Other teams have said they could do
so depending on how long the lock-
out lasts.
It took three months for the NHL
and NHLPA to resume bargaining
after the lockout began in 2004.
Since this lockout started a handful
of players have expressed concern
that it could last the entire season.
Detroit Red Wings forward Danny
Cleary said Monday he was just
trying to be realistic.
The NHL has $3.3 billion in
annual revenue. The league wants to
reduce the players share of hockey
related revenue from 57 percent to a
range between 49 percent and 47
percent, up from 43 percent in its
original proposal. Players think
managements alleged financial
problems could be addressed by re-
examining the teams revenue-shar-
ing formula.
SAN FRANCISCO Two-time
defending champion Japan and
Cuba will face off in the rst round
of pool play in next years World
Baseball Classic. Home-eld advan-
tage: Japan.
Japan will host rst and second
rounds of pool play at two sites in
the 2013 World Baseball Classic,
which features a new qualifying for-
mat rather than the invitation-only
system of the rst two events.
The top 12 nations from the last
WBC were already in, then the other
four determined from 28 teams
through qualifying. The WBC win-
ner will be named world champion
for the rst time.
The rst round games for Pool A
will be held in Fukuoka from March
2-6 with Japan, China, Cuba and a
qualier to be determined. The sec-
ond round moves to the Tokyo
Dome.
Cuba was a good t in Japan,
WBC President Paul Archey said.
We have more games in Asia.
Somebody is going to have to go to
Asia and play.
The WBC announced its venues
and pools Tuesday outside the
Giants AT&T Park, which will host
the semifinals and championship
game in the events third run. Two
more qualifying teams are still to be
determined in November, with ros-
ters scheduled to be announced Dec.
3 at the baseball winter meetings in
Nashville, Tenn.
Players will be subject to drug
testing by the World Anti-Doping
Agency.
San Juan, Puerto Rico, will host
games for the third time at Hiram
Bithorn Stadium. Those games will
be played March 7-10 featuring
Puerto Rico, the Dominican
Republic, Venezuela and a qualier.
The Arizona Diamondbacks
Chase Field and the clubs shared
Scottsdale spring training facility
with the Rockies, Salt River Fields
at Talking Stick, hosts Pool D games
between the U.S., Italy, Mexico and
a qualier.
It would help to have the U.S. in
the nal game, which he havent had
yet, Archey said.
Taichung, Taiwan, will stage the
event for the rst time. Those games
at Intercontinental Stadium will be
in Pool B from Mary 2-5, featuring
Australia, Korea, the Netherlands
and a qualier.
Two qualifying nations were
determined in recent days, though
they are yet to be placed in a pool
because the WBC must learn the
other two participants and then seed
all four qualiers for the best com-
petitive balance. Spain earned a spot
by beating Israel in extra innings
Sunday in Jupiter, Fla., while
Canada defeated Germany on
Monday to secure a place in the
tournament.
Still in contention to reach the 16-
team pool for March are Panama,
Colombia, Nicaragua and Brazil in
one qualifying tournament, and
Taiwan, the Philippines, New
Zealand and Thailand.
The inaugural 2006 Classic fea-
tured a pool play format, while 2009
was double-elimination and the
next one will be a combination of
both. The rst round will be pool
play, with the top two teams advanc-
ing. The second round is double-
elimination, and the top two teams
will reach the seminals.
Riccardo Fraccari, president of the
International Baseball Federation,
announced the WBC winner will
now be crowned world champion
a title that in the past was deter-
mined through World Cup play.
Giants CEO Larry Baer said his
franchise had twice tried to become
a WBC host for the nal two rounds.
San Diego hosted the rst WBC and
then Los Angeles Dodger Stadium
in 09.
They really put a great package
together and showed a passion for
getting it and a lot of energy, so their
efforts were rewarded, Archey said.
Its a great city. Its an international
city. Theyve obviously had a
tremendous amount of success ll-
ing this ballpark and on the baseball
eld since the last Classic. That just
made a great t.
The World Baseball Classic
reects the international avor of
our city in many ways, said Mayor
Ed Lee, who hopes for an economic
impact of more than $100 million.

LAS VEGAS Floyd
Mayweather Jr. and Manny
Pacquiao are settling a federal
defamation case in Las Vegas, clear-
ing a key hurdle
to a long-await-
ed bout between
two top ghters
whove traded
verbal jabs for
years but have
never met in the
ring.
Terms of the
pretrial agree-
ment cited in
documents led Tuesday in U.S.
District Court in Las Vegas are con-
dential, said Malcolm LaVergne, a
lawyer representing Floyd
Mayweather Jr.s father in the case.
LaVergne said documents led
under seal ask U.S. District Judge
Larry R. Hicks to dismiss the law-
suit. Documents led publicly said
each side would bear its own attor-
ney fees and costs.
The matter has been resolved,
LaVergne said. Any alleged terms
of the resolution would be strictly
condential. Floyd Mayweather Sr.
is very happy that this lengthy case
has nally come to a conclusion.
Pacquiao filed the lawsuit in
December 2009 seeking unspecied
damages based on allegations that
Floyd Mayweather Jr. defamed him
by suggesting Pacquiao used per-
formance-enhancing substances.
Pacquiao denied Mayweathers
claim.
In a statement released Tuesday
night through the mediator in the
case, the Mayweathers said they
wish to make it clear that they
never intended
to claim that
M a n n y
Pacquiao has
used or is using
any perform-
ance enhancing
drugs, nor are
they aware of
any evidence
that Manny
Pacquiao has
used performance enhancing
drugs.
An attorney for Pacquiao did not
immediately respond to messages
from The Associated Press.
The direction of the case took a
turn against Floyd Mayweather Jr.
last week, when the judge issued a
ruling ordering him to pay about
$114,000 in legal fees and costs for
avoiding questioning under oath
from Pacquiaos lawyers.
Hicks faulted Mayweather for
failure to comply with a court order.
But he earlier rejected a bid by
Pacquiao lawyers Daniel Petrocelli
and David Marroso to end the law-
suit with a more severe sanction
a default judgment for Pacquiao.
LaVergne said Tuesday he had no
information about whether the court
settlement means Mayweather and
Pacquiao will meet in the ring.

ST. HELENA In 1978, the rst vin-
tage that Cathy Corison made wine, she
could count on one hand the number of
women she knew of doing the same kind
of work in the cellars of the Napa Valley.
Without using all her ngers.
Nearly 35 years later, Corison needs a
lot more ngers. Winemaking remains
primarily a mans world, but research by
Santa Clara University professors Lucia
Albino Gilbert and John Gilbert has
found that nearly 10 percent of
California wineries now have women as
the main or lead winemaker.
Their second nding: Women wine-
makers tend to be more highly
acclaimed than their male counterparts.
Why? Hard to say and thats not a
question the Gilberts attempt to answer
in this study but it may have some-
thing to do with persistence. It takes the
same effort and skills for a male or
female winemaker to succeed, but
women can face additional challenges
achieving success in a male-dominated
eld.
I think women winemakers had to be
really determined and really passionate
and still do, says Corison, named 2011
Winemaker of the Year by the San
Francisco Chronicle.
An academic psychologist who has
studied womens career paths, Lucia
Gilbert became interested in women
winemakers. With little information
available on the subject, she put together
a comprehensive list of the 3,200-plus
winemakers in California, identifying
the women and developing the website,
Women Winemakers of California.
The total of women winemakers came
to 9.8 percent, below the 15 to 20 per-
cent the Gilberts expected.
Its easy to see why she overestimated.
After all, some of the most famous wine-
makers ARE women, such as Heidi
Barrett, who worked for the cult win-
ery Screaming Eagle. Among other
kudos, the winery is known as home of a
6-liter bottle of the 92 vintage that sold
for $500,000 at the 2000 Napa Valley
Wine Auction.
So, the researchers came up with a
new question are women wine-
makers achieving disproportionate
levels of success?
Quantifying winery acclaim is a slip-
pery business, but the Gilberts went at it
by using the listing of wineries from the
2010 reference work Opus Vino, which
includes about 4,000 wineries in the
world identied as noteworthy by wine
Women winemakers winning success
See WINE, Page 20
Twenty-three percent of California wineries with women winemakers made it into Opus Vino compared to 14 percent of
wineries with male winemakers.
Creme fraiche looks like
sour cream, tastes better
N
ot sure what creme fraiche is or why you should
care? Consider it a relative of sour cream. Except
that while both are white, thick and creamy, creme
fraiche is the richer, sexier and more tal-
ented relative.
Heres the deal. Like yogurt, sour
cream and creme fraiche are dairy prod-
ucts produced thanks to the miracle of
friendly bacteria. But while yogurt is
made by adding those bacteria to milk,
sour cream and creme fraiche are made
by adding them to cream.
So whats the difference? Sour cream
is made from cream that is 20 percent
fat; creme fraiche sports an even more
succulent 30 percent.
That may not sound like a big differ-
ence, but it matters in both taste and versatility. That extra fat
turns creme fraiche into a kitchen workhorse.
But rst, taste. While sour cream tastes, well... sour, creme
fraiche is rich and tart. And as a byproduct of the bacteria
added to produce it, creme fraiche tends to make other foods
taste buttery.
But unlike yogurt, creme fraiche isnt particularly acidic
(so its not great for marinades).
The trouble with sour cream is that you have to be very
careful when cooking with it. Heat it too much and it curdles.
Ditto for yogurt. But the higher fat content of creme fraiche
means you can boil with abandon and it wont separate. This
makes it ideal for soups, sauces and simmered dishes.
It will, however, liquefy. That means that if you add it to
the top of something, then toss it under the broiler (as in the
recipe for croque monsieur below), or even just dollop it onto
something hot, it will melt.
In France, where it originates, creme fraiche often is used
in sauces for vegetables, particularly green beans and cauli-
ower, as well as in salad dressings, soups and pastries, and

Theres pretty good evidence
that women have perhaps better sensory abilities.
So thats one issue. And, I believe that winemaking is all
about details. So perhaps if theres a difference in attention
to details? I dont know. I dont feel strongly about that.

critics and wine writers who worked
with the books editor-in-chief, Jim
Gordon.
The results: 23 percent of California
wineries with women winemakers made
it into Opus Vino compared to 14 per-
cent of wineries with male winemakers.
Gordon, former managing editor of
Wine Spectator magazine and currently
editor of Wines & Vines Magazine, was
surprised by the Gilberts ndings. He
and the other authors picked out top
wines based solely on quality and with-
out regard to the winemakers behind
them, so seeing our selections through
the perspective of Dr. Gilberts data was
a kind of revelation.
But Gordons not convinced that
women winemakers are disproportion-
ately successful compared to men given
the 10 percent baseline. There is still a
long way to go there, he points out.
Are there differences between women
and men winemakers?
Corison used to resist that idea with
everything I had. Because differences
have always been against women.
But after years of working in the eld
she feels that there may be two differ-
ences. Theres pretty good evidence
that women have perhaps better sensory
abilities. So thats one issue. And, I
believe that winemaking is all about
details. So perhaps if theres a difference
in attention to details? I dont know. I
dont feel strongly about that.
Corison, who grew up in Southern
California, took a roundabout path to
winemaking.
She studied biology, but fell in love
with wine when I was a sophomore.
She was smitten by all the usual rea-
sons, its delicious, you share it with
friends, it makes food taste better and
vice versa. On another level, I fell in
love with the fact that its a whole series
of living systems. Im a biologist and
Im still studying biology. Thats what
tunes me into winemaking, the fact that
its alive.
Thereve always been challenges,
but I think there have been advantages,
too. I think that we sort of stuck out like
sore thumbs, so for better or worse peo-
ple noticed what we did, Corison says

to top fresh fruit. Its sometimes used to
make caramels and even is added to coffee
and cocktails.
Its easy to make your own, but lets be
honest, most of us wont. Add a tablespoon
of cultured buttermilk to 1 cup of cream and
let it sit in a cool room for up to 24 hours, or
until very thick. Refrigerate for several
weeks. Creme fraiche is widely available at
most grocers in the U.S. It usually is found
alongside the better cheese, though it some-
times will be near the sour cream. It keeps,
refrigerated, for about a month.

CROQUE MONSIEUR
Adding cornstarch to the creme fraiche
allows you to broil it without it liquefying.

Servings: 2
1/2 cup creme fraiche
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
1/4 cup grated cheddar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
Pinch nutmeg
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
4 slices sandwich bread
4 slices gruyere cheese
8 slices smoked deli ham
1 tablespoon butter, softened
Heat the oven to 350 F.
In a small bowl, mix together the creme
fraiche, 1/4 cup of the Parmesan, the ched-
dar, cornstarch, garlic powder, hot sauce,

Spread a quarter of the mustard evenly
over one side of each slice of bread. Top
each with 1 slice of cheese and 2 slices of

to make 2 sandwiches. Spread the butter over
one side of each sandwich. Arrange the sand-
wiches on a baking sheet, buttered side up,
and bake for 5 minutes. Remove the baking
sheet from the oven. Set the oven to broil.
Flip the sandwiches and spoon half of the

loves it, so will you!
By Sara Moulton
Years ago, when I was pregnant
with my kids, all the advice books
swore that smart moms-to-be made
sure to eat broccoli three times a
day.
It seemed a bit extreme to me, but
I went with it. It wasnt that hard.
Ive always loved broccoli, even if it
does have an unfortunate aroma. Its
an excellent source of protein, calci-
um, iron, dietary ber and many
vitamins and minerals. And eating it
three times a day when I was preg-
nant did not kill my affection for it
after I gave birth.
It helps that its easy to cook, too.
Broccoli does well steamed, roast-
ed, grilled or sauteed. You can also
boil it, of course, as long as you
dont overdo it, which not only
chases away all the nutrients and
turns the vegetable to mush, but also
amps up that funky smell. Bottom
line broccoli is hearty and full-
bodied. It can be the main actor in
any meal.
Which is why broccoli is the star
of this substantial stick-to-your-ribs
soup for fall. To be sure, theres
some Canadian bacon in it, adding
avor, but it plays only a supporting
role. Pork in all its forms, especial-
ly regular old bacon, is the darling
of many chefs these days. But I
dont add it willy-nilly to every
recipe, not least because of its fatti-
ness.
Canadian bacon, by contrast,
delivers that same smoky taste
reminiscent of the hearth and fall
leaves burning without a ton of
calories. Canadian bacon actually is
smoked pork loin, one of the leanest
parts of the pig, and has no relation
to regular bacon, which comes from
the fatty belly.
And just as this soup boasts
smokiness without a lot of bacon
fat, it is thick and creamy without
any butter, cream or our. The trick?
Pureeing the vegetables.
Any soup with enough vegetables
will be creamy when you puree it.
And just about any vegetable will
work, though Ill admit I smuggled
in a single Yukon gold potato to
assist the broccoli in this recipe.
And by the way, a soup without a lot
of cream or butter will not only be
leaner, it also will taste that much
more vividly of the vegetables with
which it is made. Cream and butter,
much as I love them, tend to tamp
down avor.
The best tool to puree these veg-
etables is a blender. But if all you
have on hand is a food processor or
an immersion blender, dont worry.
The nished soup wont be quite as
silky smooth, but itll still be deli-
cious. And to save time and money,
Ive used every part of the broccoli.
I roasted 3 cups of the orets and
added them at the end to add crunch
and color to the soup.
I hope you will consider this
mostly vegetable soup a suitable
candidate for the main course at
dinner. With some grilled or toasted
country bread and a green salad on
the side, I promise you will be plen-
ty satised.
SMOKY CREAM OF BROCCOLI
SOUP WITH SHARP CHEDDAR
Start to nish: 45 minutes
Servings: 4 mains or 8 starters
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons
extra-virgin olive oil, divided
3/4 pound Canadian bacon,
chopped
1 medium yellow onion, sliced
(about 1 cup)
2 pounds fresh broccoli (4 cups
small florets set aside, the rest,
including the stalks, trimmed of
tough skin and coarsely chopped)
1 small Yukon gold potato (about
6 ounces), scrubbed and thinly
sliced
5 cups low-sodium chicken broth
Kosher salt and ground black pep-
per
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, or
to taste
2 ounces sharp cheddar cheese,
coarsely grated
Heat the oven to 450 F.
In a large saucepan over medium,
heat 1 tablespoon of the oil. Add the
bacon and cook, stirring, for 6 to 8
minutes, or until slightly golden.
Use a slotted spoon to transfer the
bacon to a bowl and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium-low.
Add another tablespoon of the oil
and the onion to the pan, and cook,
stirring occasionally, until the onion
is softened. Add the coarsely
chopped broccoli (not the orets),
potato and chicken broth. Bring the
broth to a boil, then reduce the heat
and simmer, partially covered, for
20 minutes, stirring every so often,
or until the broccoli and potatoes
are very tender.
Meanwhile, on a rimmed baking
sheet toss the florets with the
remaining 2 teaspoons oil. Season
with salt and pepper, then spread in
an even layer. Roast in the top third
of the oven for 5 minutes, or until
lightly caramelized.
When the vegetables in the soup
are tender, transfer the soup to a
blender and puree, in batches, until
smooth. Be careful and only ll the
blender a third full each time.
Return the soup to the saucepan,
along with the roasted broccoli o-
rets and the Canadian bacon. Add
the lemon juice, then season with
salt and pepper. Add water, if neces-
sary, to achieve the desired texture.
Ladle the soup into 4 shallow soup
bowls and top each portion with
some of the cheddar.

NYC schools dispensing morning-after pill to girls
NEW YORK Its a campaign believed to be unprece-
dented in its size and aggressiveness: New York City is dis-
pensing the morning-after pill to girls as young as 14 at more
than 50 public high schools, sometimes even before they have
had sex.
The effort to combat teen pregnancy in the nations largest
city contrasts sharply with the views of politicians and school
systems in more conservative parts of the country.
Valerie Huber, president of the National Abstinence

Report: Premium hikes
for top Medicare drug plans
WASHINGTON Millions of seniors enrolled in some of
the most popular Medicare prescription drug plans face dou-
ble-digit premium hikes next year if they dont shop for a bet-
ter deal, says a private rm that analyzes the highly competi-
tive market.
Seven of the top 10 prescription plans are raising their pre-
miums by 11 percent to 23 percent, according to a report this
week by Avalere Health.
of food, catered by local San Mateo
restaurants.
We will be hiring some local restau-
rants to provide light bites for partici-
pants to sample as they wander the wine
gardens and explore the neighborhood,
Evans said.
The event will include live music and
other activities, including a VIP Lounge
for those that buy special tickets,
Japanese sake ceremonies and a Kids
Zone.
Our goal is to carry on the local tra-
dition and host an event which showcas-
es our one-of-a-kind downtown in a fun,
celebratory way, Evans said.
Proceeds from the Wine Walk will
benet other community events through-
out the year including the Halloween
Fun Fest and the Christmas tree lighting
ceremony.
A special VIP Lounge will also be
hosted by 231 Ellsworth for $60, which
includes admission to the Wine Walk.
Yesterday, Evans and Vivian Ng, who
works for the citys Public Works
Department, were nalizing details on
the location of the wine gardens.
Currently, the DSMA ofce is lled with
cases of wine from several distributors
that will be featured for tasting this
weekend.
In previous years, the event was held
in the early part of summer and typical-
ly on a Friday night. This will be the rst
time it is held in September and on a
Saturday during the day.
DSMA Board President Kris Cesena,
who operates Auto Medics downtown,
will be volunteering at the Wine Walk
the entire day.
I cant wait to see how moving the
event to Saturday and holding it during
the day turns out. DSMA staff and vol-
unteers have been working 110 percent
to make it a great event and I believe the
attendees will come away very satised.
We purposely chose to have the event
end at 6 p.m. in hopes attendees will stay
downtown and have dinner or shop after-
ward, Cesena wrote the Daily Journal in
an email.
The 16th annual Wine Walk is this
Saturday, Sept. 29, from 2 p.m. and 6
p.m. Ticketholders must enter the event
from the entrance at the intersection of
First and Ellsworth avenues. In advance,
tickets can be purchased for $35 through
the DSMAs Eventbrite page at
http://dsma.org/wine-walk-final/pur-
chase-tickets/. On the day of the event,
tickets can be purchased at the entrance
for $45 but be advised that tickets may
sell out. A ticket gets the ticketholder
both wine and food tastings. Tickets to
the VIP Lounge are $65.

cerated. A number of speakers decried
Measure A, the half-cent general sales tax on
the November ballot, as specically a means
to fund the $155 million jail and vowed its
defeat.
Several in the crowded board chambers
expressed frustration with the board continu-
ing on with the jail plan despite their repeat-
ed demands for reconsideration.
Im at my wits end ... building this jail is
completely immoral, unnecessary and expen-
sive, said Joseph Rosas.
Tuesdays budget hearing came days after
the Berkeley-based Institute for Law and
Policy Planning released a draft report on a
re-entry program that Executive Director
Alan Kalmanoff said was axed by the county
mid-contract because it uncovered aws that
called into question the need for a new jail.
Kalmanoff attended the hearing to deliver the
report despite it having been terminated but
said there is no political agenda other than
highlighting conclusions that overcrowding
can be alleviated by xing existing criminal
justice problems.
Jails are for people who are dangerous,
Kalmanoff said before wishing the board
luck.
Stephanie Munoz, who said her father was
a doctor at Atascadero State Hospital,
acknowledged the need for some prisons but
called the planned local jail just a warehouse
for feckless people who have been pushed off
the economic ladder.
Pine, the lone dissenter last fall when the
board approved the jail, told the crowd he
thinks the county can lower its incarceration
rate but, with only 688 rated beds for a popu-
lation of roughly 1,000, not everybody will
be t for release.
I dont think all of those 322 people can be
out of jail. I just dont, he said.
Supervisor Don Horsley, who began talk of
a new facility six years ago when still sheriff,
said he closed three jails on his watch but
fewer facilities do not cap the population. He
also used Proposition 36 as an example of a
diversion program now largely abandoned
because participants tended not to show up.
Relying on either of these ideas as examples
of how to magically reduce the jail need, he
said, simply is not reality.
Currently, the new jail on Chemical Way is
expected to open in 2015 and require $25
million to $27 million in annual operating
expenses. Ground broke in June and jail plan-
ners and architects are narrowing down a
design. The goal is to keep the current mens
jail open for booking and pre-trial inmates
while moving female inmates and men
already sentenced to the new building.
Early opposition to a jail several years ago
centered on its location, with Redwood City
residents worried about a then-preferred spot
near the existing Maguire Correctional
Facility. The ght has since shifted to the
need for a new jail and in some arguments,
even the existing jails at all and the effort
ramped up in recent months as opponents
crowded the public comment portion of sev-
eral Board of Supervisors meetings.
We feel like were hitting our heads
against a brick wall, said James Lee of
Occupy Redwood City.
He said opponents know county ofcials
cant directly build schools in East Palo Alto,
for example, as alternatives to a new jail but
that such comments are shorthand for your
priorities are wrong.
Micaela Davis of the American Civil
Liberties Union told the board its hands are
not completely tied in reducing the pretrial
jail population and suggested public safety
will be enhanced when defendants are on
monitoring rather than released on bail with
no other supervision.
Presiding Judge Beth Labson Freeman said
she offered no position on the countys budg-
et or jail but explained to the board chambers
that each judge offers an independent consid-
eration of cases which is why there are so
many different outcomes rather than a uni-
form response. She said the court does allow
electronic home monitoring and other modi-
ed sentencing like the sheriffs work pro-
gram that keeps inmates with short sentences
from jail.
Opponents, who stormed out of the meet-
ing after the budget vote to chant loudly in the
hallway, were not mollified by anything
county ofcials offered. Aaron Castle chas-
tised the board for not listening to its own
commission reports, conclusions by former
county manager David Boesch and published
opinion pieces opposing the plan. Like quite
a few others, Castle told the board it was
jeopardizing its political future.
Im angry. Were going to rip you out of
those seats and sit in them, Castle said.

FUROR
which gives land owners tax breaks on agri-
culture land.
The county is still wrestling with the issue
of agri-tourism as a whole and working on
formal guidelines but, the board, minus
Supervisor Carole Groom, agreed yesterday
not to hamper Aratas business in the mean-
time. However, that didnt mean everybody
liked Gounalakis or any property owner possi-
bly being able to skirt a higher tax hit by
claiming farm animal petting zoos and bounce
houses are compatible with agriculture.
I just dont understand the train and blow-
up inatables, Groom said.
Although Supervisor Dave Pine leaned in
favor of the amendment, he was also con-
cerned.
Im OK with the uses. What Im not sure
Im OK with is the tax benet, he said.
Arata Pumpkin Farm sits on a little more
than eight acres on Verde Road to the east of
Cabrillo Highway and bordered by Lobitos
Creek. Of that, 2.94 acres is under agricultur-
al production and the remainder includes a
home, three barns and covered sales building.
The Arata farm counts pumpkins, corn and
fava beans as its agricultural output. Attorney
Steve Wilson told supervisors that items not
directly grown on the land are also produced
locally.
We dont buy pumpkins from Turlock, he
said.
Arata Farms and the county have had a
long-standing tug-of-war over the seasonal
offerings and last year the matter came to a
head when supervisors reluctantly agreed to
let it continue operating on after-the-fact per-
mits.
Speaking on behalf of Gounalakis, Wilson
said all he wants is a level playing eld with
other properties offering seasonal activities.
Other coastside farms also operate attractions
and all but Lemos Farm have agricultural con-
tracts. However, the attractions do not sit on
prime farm land.
Wilson said the amendment request would
also erase past tension with the county.
Were here to wipe that slate clean,
Wilson said.
Although the Williamson Act is a state func-
tion, counties are allowed to amend the 10-
year long contracts if both parties agree. The
amendment accepted yesterday expands the
countys denition of compatible uses as long
as they are secondary to agriculture. The farm
will be able to operate seasonal uses like pony
rides, hay rides, a farm animal petting zoo, a
childrens play area with up to two inatable
structures, a seasonally-decorated barn, a
farm-themed train ride and a hay bale maze.
If the owners want to establish a year-round
activity like an educational center, they will
need a permit, said Steve Monowitz, deputy
director of the countys planning and building
department.
Coastside farmer B.J. Burns urged the
supervisors to deny the Arata request, calling
the parcel too small without any commercial
agriculture to justify the Williamson Act con-
tract.
I think this is a use thats being abused and
agriculture is taking the beating on this, he
said.

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 2012
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Succumbing to instant
gratifcation could be one of your biggest problems.
You are likely to regret it if you spend more than you
should on a whim of the moment.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Unless you want to
turn your household into a camp with several warring
factions, be careful not to bring up any controversial
issues. Youll only have yourself to blame if war
breaks out.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Shelve, at least
for the next few days, certain tasks you fnd to be
distasteful. Any jobs you perform under a cloud will
have to be redone in the near future.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Generally, you are
a rather prudent and cautious person when it comes
to your fnancial affairs. Know now that the day could
tempt you to take some unwise fnancial risks.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Dont let your ego
dominate your common sense in ways that make
you feel that youll lose face if you arent No. 1 at all
times. Overwhelming pride is self-defeating.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Although normally your
intuition is exceptionally reliable and can be helpful
in giving you great insight, pride could override it and
lead you far astray.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Its nice to do someone
a favor, but be careful that you dont unwittingly let
it take money out of your pocket, unless, of course,
the recipient is someone near and dear and you dont
mind doing so.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Being hasty or impul-
sive when putting plans together or deciding an im-
portant issue with another will weaken your position,
not improve it. Give your ideas the time they deserve.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Taking on an as-
signment that is way over your head is not only
downright foolish, it could be harmful. You might end
up having a tough time crawling out of the hole you
put yourself in.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Once you start to point
out the faults of your friends, no matter how well in-
tended you are, your popularity might take a huge hit.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- If your tastes are totally differ-
ent from your mates, its best not to make any expen-
sive purchases without the input of your better half.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Think before opening
your mouth, especially when making an appraisal
of anothers efforts. If you cant be tactful, dont say
anything at all.

NATION/WORLD 31
By Edith M. Lederer
UNITED NATIONS
Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon
demanded international action to
stop the war in Syria, telling a
somber gathering of world leaders
Tuesday that the 18-month conict
had become a regional calamity
with global ramications.
In sharp contrast to the U.N.
chief, President Barack Obama
pledged U.S. support for Syrians
trying to oust President Bashar
Assad a dictator who massacres
his own people.
Opening the U.N. General
Assemblys annual ministerial
meeting, Ban said in his state of the
world speech that he was sounding
the alarm about widespread insecu-
rity, inequality and intolerance in
many countries.
Putting the spotlight on Syria, the
U.N. chief said the international
community should not look the
other way as violence spirals out of
control.
We must stop the violence and
ows of arms to both sides, and set
in motion a Syrian-led transition as
soon as possible, he said.
While Obama didnt call for an
end to the violence, he made no
mention of arming the opposition
and stressed the importance of
ensuring that what began with citi-
zens demanding their rights does
not end in a cycle of sectarian vio-
lence.
U.N. chief demands global action to end war in Syria
By Ben Feller
UNITED NATIONS
Confronting global tumult and
Muslim anger, President Barack
Obama exhorted world leaders
Tuesday to stand fast against vio-
lence and extremism, arguing that
protecting religious rights and free
speech must be a universal responsi-
bility and not just an American obli-
gation.
The impulse towards intolerance
and violence may initially be
focused on the West, but over time it
cannot be contained, Obama
warned the U.N. General Assembly
in an urgent call to action under-
scored by the high stakes for all
nations.
The gloomy backdrop for
Obamas speech a world riven by
deadly protests against an anti-
Islamic video, by war in Syria, by
rising tension over a nuclear Iran
and more marked the dramatic
shifts that have occurred in the year
since the General Assemblys last
ministerial meeting, when demo-
cratic uprisings in the Arab world
created a sense of excitement and
optimism. Obama had tough words
for Iran and condemned anew the
violence in Syria as Bashar al-Assad
tries to retain power.
Six weeks before the U.S. presi-
dential election, an unmistakable
campaign element framed Obamas
speech as well: The presidents
Re p u b l i c a n
rival, Mitt
Romney, has
tried to cast him
as a weak leader
on the world
stage, too quick
to apologize for
American val-
ues.
R o m n e y ,
speaking at a Clinton Global
Initiative forum just miles from the
U.N., avoided direct criticism of
Obama in deference to the apolitical
settings of the day, but he said he
hoped to return a year later as pres-
ident, having made substantial
progress on democratic reforms.
Obama, likewise, avoided direct pol-
iticking in his speech but offered a
pointed contrast to his GOP oppo-
nents caught-on-tape comment that
there is little hope for peace between
Israelis and Palestinians.
Among Israelis and
Palestinians, Obama said, the
future must not belong to those who
turn their backs on a prospect of
peace. Secretary-General Ban Ki-
moons opening state-of-the-world
speech to the General Assemblys
presidents, prime ministers and
monarchs sketched the current time
as one when too often, divisions are
exploited for short-term political
gain and too many people are
ready to take small ames of indif-
ference and turn them into a bon-
re.

NEW YORK Republican
White House hopeful Mitt Romney
is unlikely to win Bill Clintons
vote, but that doesnt mean he cant
soak up a bit of the popular former
presidents luster.
The two men stood side by side
Tuesday as Clinton introduced
Romney before the GOP candi-
dates speech to Clintons annual
global confer-
ence in New
York. Clinton
recalled work-
ing with
Romney to save
Ame r i Co r p s ,
and praised the
f o r m e r
Massachusetts
g o v e r n o r s
efforts to persuade fellow
Republicans to support the national
service program.
Romney, tak-
ing the podium,
returned the
compliment.
If theres one
thing weve
learned in this
election season,
by the way, it is
that a few words
from Bill
Clinton can do a man a lot of
good, he said, prompting loud
laughter and applause from the
crowd.
Romney says Clinton cando a man a lot of good
