WASHINGTON
Congressional leaders from both
parties voiced fresh optimism
Friday after meeting with newly re-
elected President Barack Obama
about avoiding year-end fiscal
cliff tax increases and spending
cuts that would hammer the middle
class and risk plunging the economy
into recession.
House Speaker John Boehner of
Ohio said Republicans are willing to
c o n s i d e r
increased rev-
enue as long as
it is accompa-
nied by spending
cuts as leaders
in a divided gov-
ernment get to
work on a possi-
ble deal after a
fierce election
campaign.

Success in academics starts early and
requires many people to work together, a
message that was discussed at length
during the Connecting Ready Kids to
Ready Schools event held in San Mateo
Thursday.
Sponsored by the Silicon Valley
Community Foundation, Thursdays
gathering at the San Mateo Marriott was
part of the nonprots campaign for third
grade achievement. The half-day forum
showcased how even students who start
kindergarten prepared can fall behind by
third grade if teachers dont work
together and curriculum isnt aligned.
Such success is more easily achieved
when parents are also engaged. Making
that happen is a national challenge.
Educators came together to discuss the
issues challenges and possible solu-
tions.
Student achievement in San Mateo
and Santa Clara counties has grown in
recent years, said Michelle Sioson
Hyman, initiative ofcer for the Silicon
Valley Community Foundation.
However, the gap in achievement
between different ethnic groups remain.
One way to combat that is to work with
children at a younger age, she said.
Sixty-one percent of children in the
region are not prepared when they enter
kindergarten, Hyman said.
Local numbers are following a nation-
al achievement gap trend.

As shopping begins for a holiday
focused on food and family, consid-
er doing a little something for others
by donating to a local nonprot.
Thanksgiving is a time to give
thanks. For many, its a struggle to
get the traditional meal together.
San Mateo County nonprots are
working to meet the need. But the
organizations have yet to collect
whats needed. There are many
opportunities to help.

Sacred Heart Schools Third Annual Olive Festival will be held Sunday,Nov.18 from 8 a.m.to dusk.The oil pressing
will be around 3 p.m.The school is located at 150 Valparaiso Ave. in Atherton.
By Sally Schilling
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
When Nancy and Paul Sallaberry
dropped their children off at Sacred
Heart Schools, they noticed an
untapped resource. The Sallaberrys,
who have their own olive orchard in
Carmel, looked at the olive trees lin-
ing the west side of the school and
saw an opportunity.
They approached the school lead-
ership about possibly getting the
students involved in making olive
oil. The school directors embraced
the idea, and were happy to perhaps
reduce the amount of olives that
were being tracked into the carpeted
classrooms each year. The nuns
were excited to bring back an old
school tradition.
They almost had tears of joy in
their eyes, said Sallaberry, who
studied environmental science at the
University of California at Davis. In
previous years, some elderly nuns
told the harvesters stories of using
canes to hit branches to make the
olives come down, he said.
The faculty has estimated that the
trees are more than 100 years old.
The last time the olives were picked
was in the 1950s.
During the year, students in the
schools sustainability classes are
involved in orchard maintenance
and inspecting the trees.
On Sunday, students, parents, fac-
ulty and community members will
participate in Sacred Heart Schools
Third Annual Olive Harvest. A
mobile mill will be at the school and
the olive will be pressed and bottled

The Woodside man accused of staging his
wifes fatal shooting as a suicide to collect
millions of dollars in insurance payouts
cemented the start date of his potentially cap-
ital murder trial, withdrawing his previous
waiver of a speedy prosecution to make sure
the proceeding starts in January.
The move Friday by Pooroushasb Peter
Parineh, 67, means his Jan. 22 trial date can-
not be delayed because a defendant who has-
nt waived his right must be heard within 60
days.
Given Peters age and physical condition,
he wants to go to trial and wants to go trial
when its set, said defense attorney Dek
Ketchum.
Parineh is charged with murder, gun use and
murder for nancial gain. If convicted, he
faces life in prison without parole or the death
penalty. Prosecutors have
not said yet formally
which they will pursue.
Ketchum said, with that
in mind, the case remains
in death penalty status but,
regardless, his defense
strategy will not change.
Parineh has pleaded not
guilty to the Aug. 13, 2010
death of Parima Parineh,
56, who was shot twice in
the head in the bedroom of the couples multi-
million dollar home on Fox Hill Road in
Woodside.
At a preliminary hearing last fall, the prose-
cution argued Parineh stood to benet from
$31 million in life insurance policies and, out-
side court, said he also had a longtime mis-
tress.
Parineh allegedly gave authorities differing
stories; once, he said he found his wife dead
and, another time, that he found her wounded
and nished the job at her request.
At the time of his wifes death, Parineh was
$13 million to $14 million in debt and his list
of foreclosures included the Fox Hill home
and several properties scattered throughout
the state. His wife had a number of life insur-
ance policies totaling $31 million but they had
a lien against them and were about to end
without payment.
In April, the Parineh children sued their
father for wrongful death, claiming that she
survived the attack for some period of time
before dying as a result and that they also
believe his purpose in willfully and mali-
ciously murdering her was to benet nan-
cially from certain life insurance payouts.
Parineh remains in custody without bail.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
The teenage girl who used a fellow stu-
dents email to send Burlingame High School
administrators a false bomb threat that put
the campus on lockdown earlier this year
must repay nearly $5,000 for the cost of the
public safety response.
Christine Nicole Azzolino, 19, was sen-
tenced in September to 15 days jail, 32 hours
of counseling and three years of probation
for making a false explosives report. On
Friday, a court commis-
sioner also ordered her to
pay $3,426 to Central
County Fire, $771 to the
Burlingame Police
Department and $795 to
the San Francisco Police
Department.
Azzolino sent the
threatening email at
approximately 2 p.m. Feb.
10 and school officials
immediately locked down the campus. They
tracked the message back to a male student
from whose account it originated and police
swept the campus and the boys possessions
with four bomb-sniffing dogs. No bombs
were found and no one was injured.
Police ultimately figured out that Azzolino
actually sent the message from the boys
account and she was arrested the following
Monday, according to prosecutors who say
she said there was no intent to actually carry
out the threat.

Obituary
A request by prosecutors to set an exe-
cution date for a San Mateo County
death row inmate whose appeals have
expired wont be heard until Monday
because the judge assigned to hear the
matter had the day off.
Judge Barbara Mallach was assigned
the case of Robert Green Fairbank which
was scheduled for Friday but she had a
long-standing day off unfortunately,
nobody informed his attorneys or any-
one else involved ahead of time, accord-
ing to prosecutors.
Instead, Mallach on Monday morning
will consider whether to set a date for
Fairbank, who was convicted of tortur-
ing and murdering a young graduate stu-
dent in 1985, or follow the lead of other
courts that rst want clarity on the use of
lethal injection.
California executions have essentially
been on hold for years while the courts
wrangle with the question of cruel and
unusual punishment. A court has ruled
the states previous use of a three-drug
cocktail could not continue and a judge
in a different case also declined to set an
execution date for a condemned inmate
despite that prosecutor maintaining a
single drug would bypass the concern.
The local District Attorneys Ofce is
expected to make a similar argument in
Fairbanks case.
The request comes almost two weeks
after California voters afrmed the death
penalty by rejecting Proposition 34. An
early hearing for Fairbank was delayed
until after the Nov. 6 election in case
voters had felt otherwise, making the
request moot.
Fairbank, now 58, was sentenced to
death for the Dec. 12, 1985 attempted
sexual assault and murder of San
Francisco resident Wendy Cheek, a
graduate student. Cheeks partially
burned body was found near
Hillsborough off Interstate 280. Cheek
had been stabbed repeatedly with a bar-
becue fork, knife and screwdriver before
being set on re. Two days into his 1989
trial, Fairbank, already a convicted
felon, pleaded no contest.
Death penalty decision delayed
CuriOdyssey, the San Mateo-based
childrens science education center, shat-
tered previous attendance records by see-
ing more than one-third more visitors the
last scal year than in any other in its his-
tory.
More than 135,000 people visited the
science and native animal center at
Coyote Point between Oct. 1, 2011 and
Sept. 30, 2012. The gure is 32 percent
more than the previous scal year and a
77 percent increase over the lowest point
of 2008. CuriOdyssey attributes the sig-
nicant hike to the organizations focus
on highly interactive experiences for
children, the science exhibitions, popular
camps, daily wildlife encounters and the
mobile museum.
We are thrilled that our approach to
science education has resonated with the
community, said Executive Director
Rachel Meyer in a prepared announce-
ment.
The news comes on the heels of word
the museum is planning for an updated
facility to accommodate even more
exhibits and programs. Last month, the
county Board of Supervisors signed off
on an agreement to transfer ownership of
the facility to CuriOdyssey and estab-
lished a new 30-year lease. The building
gives CuriOdyssey an asset on which to
raise capital for the new building whose
design is still in the early planning
stages. The plan also calls on better inte-
grating both the indoor and outdoor
experiences.
Meyer said the communitys amaz-
ing response to CuriOdysseys offerings
is what puts it in a position for growth.
CuriOdyssey is the modern incarnation
of the former Coyote Point Museum
which nearly closed six years ago but has
since reemerged as a science-centric
draw for the entire region.
For more information about
CuriOdyssey visit www.curiodyssey.org.
CuriOdyssey is open 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Tuesday to Saturday and noon to 5 p.m.
Sunday. Admission is $8 for adults, $6
for students and seniors and $4 for chil-
dren 2-12.

One of two men who torched two parked cars
in Redwood City over an apparent dispute with
one vehicles owner was sentenced Friday to a
year in county jail followed by three years of
probation.
Prosecutors asked that Moris A. Pena instead
receive 16 months in prison for the felony arson
charges but Judge Craig Parsons declined.
We felt an arsonist belongs in prison but
Judge Craig Parsons felt the public was better
served by him being supervised by probation
officers, said District Attorney Steve
Wagstaffe.
Pena has 289 days credit against his sentence
and must also pay more than $10,000 in resti-
tution.
Co-defendant Raul Gomez pleaded no con-
test to similar charges and will be sentenced
Nov. 27. Like Pena, he faces up to 16 months in
prison and remains in custody in lieu of
$100,000 bail.
Redwood City police arrested the men June
26 after responding to reports of a vehicle re
at 210 Linden St. Two vehicles were found on
re, one parked on the street in front of that
location and a second vehicle parked on the
property and next to a carport. Both vehicles
were destroyed. A third car was also damaged
because of its proximity.
Ofcers checking nearby gas stations for sur-
veillance footage found a witness who recalled
selling gas to a man with a can. They located
Pena, the man in the video, walking nearby and
arrested him. Further investigation led to
Gomez.
Prosecutors say Gomez and Pena had prob-
lems with one of the cars owners which is why
they set the re.
Car torcher gets jail, probation
By Jason Dearen
SAN FRANCISCO Gov. Jerry Brown
told attendees at an environmental conference
Friday that climate change must be prevented
or humans might one day be forced to live on
another planet.
Addressing the Greenbuild Expo in San
Francisco, Brown lauded Californias cap-
and-trade auction for greenhouse gas emis-
sions, which began this week. It was the for-
mal launch of the nations most ambitious car-
bon-trading market, which for the rst time
established a market-based system to put a
price on greenhouse gas emissions.
The Democratic governor said future gener-
ations will be living indoors ... or well be
living on some other planet. He urged other
states and the nation to fol-
low Californias lead, say-
ing the state can only do so
much by itself.
Human impact on cli-
mate is real, Brown said.
It is growing, and we
need to take steps to stop it
or there will be catastroph-
ic consequences.
Brown said he has
always been a steward of the environment,
saying he earned the nickname Gov.
Moonbeam decades ago during his first
gubernatorial stint in part because of his inter-
est in solar energy.
That was not a term of endearment, the
governor joked. The people who invented
that term arent around anymore, but I am.
Hamas targets Jerusalem
in major escalation
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip Palestinian
militants took aim at Jerusalem for the rst
time Friday, launching a rocket attack on the
holy city in a major escalation of hostilities
as Israel pressed forward with a relentless
campaign of airstrikes in the Gaza Strip.
Israel called up thousands of reservists and
massed troops along the border with Gaza,
signaling a ground invasion of the densely
populated seaside strip could be imminent.
The attack on Jerusalem, along with an earli-
er strike on the metropolis of Tel Aviv, raised
the likelihood that Israel would soon move in.
Israel launched its military campaign
Wednesday after days of heavy rocket fire
from Gaza by assassinating the military chief
of the territorys ruling Hamas militant
group. Since then it has carried out hundreds
of airstrikes on weapons-storage facilities
and underground rocket-launching sites.
It has slowly expanded its operation
beyond military targets and before dawn on
Saturday, missiles smashed into a small
Hamas security facility as well as the sprawl-
ing Hamas police headquarters in Gaza City,
setting off a massive blaze there that threat-
ened to engulf nearby houses and civilian
cars parked outside. No one was inside the
buildings at the time.
Petraeus: CIA blamed
terrorists for Libya attack
WASHINGTON Testifying out of sight,
ex-CIA Director David Petraeus told Congress
Friday that classied intelli-
gence showed the deadly
raid on the U.S. Consulate
in Libya was a terrorist
attack but the administra-
tion withheld the suspected
role of al-Qaida afliates to
avoid tipping them off.
The recently resigned spy
chief explained that refer-
ences to terrorist groups
suspected of carrying out
the violence were removed from the public
explanation of what caused the attack so as not
to alert them that U.S. intelligence was on their
trail, according to lawmakers who attended
Petraeus private briengs. He also said it ini-
tially was unclear whether the militants had
inltrated a demonstration to cover their attack.
The retired four-star general addressed the
House and Senate intelligence committees in
back-to-back, closed-door hearings as questions
persist over what the Obama administration
knew in the immediate aftermath of the Sept.
11 attacks and why its public description did
not match intelligence agencies assessments.

for existing clients, the monthly allocations
seem to be going faster and faster, indicating
a greater reliance on the food CALL provides.
The organization could use donations of
turkeys and chickens. This year, the focus is
on a program called Fill a Box, Feed a Family.
Simply ll a sturdy copy-paper-sized box with
non-perishable food and add a $20 pre-paid
grocery card for recipients to purchase items
that are appropriate for their holiday celebra-
tion. CALL Primrose will see that it gets to a
local family in need. Pre-registration is impor-
tant to the success of this program. Those
interested in participating should email con-
tact@CALLPrimrose.org. Then, a list of
items to purchase will be emailed back, said
Watt.
Turkeys are denitely in demand.
Second Harvest Food Bank of Santa Clara
and San Mateo counties needs turkeys so that
local pantries and soup kitchens that depend
on Second Harvest for food can provide their
clients with a traditional Thanksgiving meal.
This years goal is 12,000 turkeys and
Second Harvest still needs about 5,000
turkeys.
Enjoying a turkey dinner during the holi-
days, particularly at Thanksgiving, is an
important tradition for many local families,
said Kathy Jackson, CEO of Second Harvest
Food Bank. We need to meet our turkey goal
so that families who want a turkey this holiday
season can get one. We are also looking for
cash donations because the families and indi-
viduals we serve will continue to need food
after the holidays are over. With our purchas-
ing power, Second Harvest can turn one dollar
into two nutritious meals. A monetary dona-
tion will help us feed people all year long.
Turkeys can be dropped off at Second
Harvest Food Banks Curtner Center in San
Jose, 750 Curtner Ave., and Bing Center in
San Carlos, 1051 Bing St. The Food Bank has
extended its dock hours to make donating eas-
ier. Turkeys should not be placed in the food
collection barrels located throughout the com-
munity. Second Harvests Bing Center dock is
open from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 17.
For more information about holiday hours
or to make a donation visit www.SHFB.org or
call (866) 234-3663.
Each year, Samaritan House cooks a meal
offered on Thanksgiving at the King Center in
North Central San Mateo. The event is fully
staffed with volunteers but the nonprot could
still use food donations, said Communications
Specialist Marcy Spiker. Specifically,
Samaritan House could use: chicken, ham and
turkeys. Individuals can drop off donations at
the administrative ofces located at 4031
Pacic Blvd. in San Mateo.

HOLIDAY
specializes in pre-kindergarten to third grade
approaches and reform efforts. One problem
she noted is a lack of consistency in what chil-
dren are exposed to prior to starting traditional
school. Once in school, the quality of education
children are receiving is also inconsistent. A
study of Chicago schools found students were
more successful when in programs in which
teachers worked together to align curriculum
through third grade. That kind of success starts
with leadership, she said.
In San Mateo County, one thing being done to
foster such collaboration is the Bridges to
Success Initiative focusing on Ready Schools
Teams. In ve districts Cabrillo, Jefferson,
La Honda Pescadero, Pacica and Redwood
City teams are made up with educators from
local schools and early childhood educators and
families to create a stronger team so children
are better prepared for school.
Elizabeth Schuck, assistant superintendent of
curriculum and instruction for Cabrillo Unied,
said she always assumed that public and private
preschools in the area were working together to
assure similar quality and topics were covered.
Turns out that wasnt the case, she said.
By bringing preschool representatives togeth-
er with district staff, the group has created a
plan to foster engagement by all teachers,
parents, community organizations in hopes
of supporting children earlier. Now, incoming
kindergarten students will take part in a com-
mon assessment at the start of school. That way,
the student needs are known right away and
support can start immediately, she said.
Earlier this year, Nobel Laureate economist
James Heckman made the argument that creat-
ing a successful workforce starts by investing in
children before they are 5 by supplementing
resources of disadvantaged families.
By age 3, gaps in achievement and under-
standing are set. Statistically, those remain
throughout education, Heckman said while he
was in San Mateo in March. To make effective
change, the United States needs to start talking
about prevention rather than remediation, he
said. Basically, he said focusing on children
who have successful social-emotional skills,
cognitive skills and are in good health allows
for success in the future.

Letters to the editor
By Dwight L. Schwab Jr.
I
never thought I would see the day
where half of America has grown into a
mass of greedy, lazy, self-serving
socialists. I never thought I would see the
day where the once-powerful and respectable
news media would cave to the love of money
and ideology more than the truth.
I never thought I would see this once great
nation, the envy of all nations on earth,
crumble to the depths of socialism with noth-
ing but a massive pile of debt that looms over
our heads and no plan in sight to rid us of
this burden.
What we have just witnessed is the end of
the United States of America as we knew it.
We will never recover from this.
We have tipped the 50 percent mark and
will now pay the price of our greed. We have
reached the point that Thomas Jefferson pre-
dicted would happen. Once people are able
to vote themselves free money at the expense
of other, hard-working people, we are done.
The people have spoken. They obviously
dont care.
Twenty trillion dollars
will be what we owe at
the end of this Obamas
next term. That will be $1
trillion in interest every
year. Unemployment will
hit 15 percent and that
will be the new normal. It
will be OK with every-
one, because this guy is ...
cool. Gas will be $6-$7 a gallon.
Businesses, those that are left, will leave the
country in droves. It will no longer be feasi-
ble to conduct business in the United States
any more.
We will no longer be a manufacturing
country. We will be nothing more than a con-
sumer nation that will leach off of the rest of
the world.
How pathetic have we become?
We have allowed a decent, God-fearing,
caring man like Mitt Romney, who has more
knowledge in his little ngernail about how
to return this nation to health, go down to a
self-serving, lying, Constitution-hating,
Declaration of Independence-loathing, racial-
ly dividing, class-envying socialist.
Nice work, America. Good luck.
God help us all.

2012 California election
Editor,
I commend city, county and California vot-
ers for bequeathing us with one of the high-
est sales tax rates in the nation. Its a pity
that we neglected to endeavor for a higher
city sales tax to achieve national attention.
Such triumphs provide work-around incen-
tives, however. I may be excoriated in reveal-
ing that a locally purchased $14 product can
be procured on the Internet for $10 with free
delivery to your door sans sales tax. Another
enterprising website, for triing cost, pro-
vides a sales tax free out-of-state address to
reship any items you desire to purchase,
which includes anything acquired on Amazon
or elsewhere. This works well, especially if
the purchase amount is several hundred dol-
lars or more. The reship costs are much
lower than our local sales taxes. I suspect
that local contractors and others may use or
are already using such stratagems to sustain
lower expenditures and enhanced prots.
Yes, it is laudable to contribute to the local
economy, but the last election nds
California off the rails to this observer. A 10
percent unemployment rate, a full one-third
of Americans on welfare residing here, a
rank of 48th from the Tax Foundations 2012
State Business Climate Index, a $68 billion
high-speed rail boondoggle to nowhere, a
deteriorating credit rating, unrestrained
unions and $6 billion raised by Proposition
30 already spent and doing zilch to diminish
the decit. Welcome to California, the
American Greece. As in Greece, rejoice in
the Pyrrhic victory, raise a glass of ouzo and
shout Opa!

National anthem at sporting events
Editor,
Some notes to celebrities singing the
national anthem at athletic events:
1). It is best to sing the notes as written.
And it would be very different, also.
2). Screaming is not singing, no matter
what you see and hear on television.
3). Resist the temptation to add your own
frills and trills to demonstrate your great
artistry. I know it is hard to believe, but it is
not about you it is about the nation.

Self-inflicted damage
Editor,
The military leader of Hamas, Ahmed
Jaabari, is dead. He was killed in a surgical
strike on his car by Israel. Jaabari was a ruth-
less murderer who got what he deserved.
Hamas response was to say it has declared
war on Israel. If peace means having rockets
red at you without retaliating, then war
tragically seems a better alternative. Israels
2005 withdrawal from Gaza was taken by
Hamas as an opportunity to attack. Stupid
idea.
During the past ve days alone, more than
125 missiles and mortars fell in Israel, red
from Gaza from residential areas by people
who deliberately endanger their own civilians
in doing so, let alone the ones theyre ring
at. Other rockets were stopped by Israels
Iron Dome anti-missile system, which is cali-
brated to destroy incoming projectiles likely
to hit populated areas. More than 800 rockets
have been red since January. Israeli civil-
ians and military personnel have been killed
and wounded, homes have been destroyed
and other property damage has been suffered.
The lives of 1 million Israelis are threatened
by this onslaught and countless thousands
suffer from post-traumatic stress.
The most heinous form of discrimination is
to deny people the right to defend them-
selves. Israelis have had to get used to the
double standard imposed on them by a world
that seemingly wants them to disappear. Its a
pity that its self-defense requires Israel to act
harshly, but thats what you get when you elect
and support the murderers who run Gaza.
Desmond Tuck
San Mateo
First strike
Editor,
Lets be clear about who started this round
between Israel and Gaza. Since the beginning
of the year, more than 800 rockets and mortar
shells have been red at Israel. This never
seems to make the news until Israel nally
says, Enough! and res back.
Ahmed Jabri, the head of Hamas military
wing, was targeted because he was directly
responsible for executing terror attacks. But
the rst strike was those 800 rockets over the
course of a year on Israeli civilians, and that
should be noted in every report.
So, if you read in the papers or hear on tele-
vision or radio the claim that Israel, by
responding to terror in its borders, is squander-
ing peace and reacting disproportionately, I
hope that you consider that Israel cannot afford
restraint when its children are eeing for their
lives at the sound of warning sirens, and the
sound of falling missiles are overhead.

The next four years
Other voices
Californians cautious
with criminal justice
The Sacramento Bee
A
t first glance, observers might con-
clude that California voters exhib-
ited symptoms of schizophrenia on
law and order issues this election season.
While they overwhelmingly approved
Proposition 36, a measure that softens
Californias tough Three Strikes law, they
narrowly rejected Proposition 34, a fairly
well-funded death penalty repeal initiative.
Upon closer examination, the two meas-
ures were fundamentally different, appeal-
ing to different constituencies for different
reasons. Proposition 36 was not a full-out
repeal of Three Strikes but a nuanced
adjustment of a sentencing regime that pro-
ponents argued persuasively was just flat
unfair. They successfully documented the
extreme excesses of Three Strikes in
California. It was not an urban myth, for
instance, that under the states Three Strikes
law, pizza thieves are serving life sentences.
Also, the changes approved do not auto-
matically free repeat offenders, but they
ensure that petty criminals are no longer
condemned to spend the rest of their lives in
prison as a matter of law.
It certainly didnt hurt that the initiative
had the backing of veteran Los Angeles
District Attorney Steve Cooley, who helped
draft it. The current Los Angeles police
chief as well as a former one support-
ed it as well. Remarkably, it won majorities
in every county in the state, from conserva-
tive Kern, where it racked up a healthy 55
percent of the vote, to liberal San Francisco,
where it garnered 84 percent approval.
Considered something of a third rail of
California politics for so long political
suicide for any elected official who dared to
suggest softening it Three Strikes reform
proved to be widely popular.
Unlike Proposition 36s nuanced adjust-
ment of Three Strikes, Proposition 34
sought an outright repeal of the death penal-
ty. While supporters included many who
were morally opposed to capital punish-
ment, the campaign stressed other issues,
primarily the high cost and the dysfunction
of the death penalty in this state.
Voters in 40 of Californias 52 counties
rejected those arguments, defeating
Proposition 34.
Predictably, repeal of the death penalty
won majorities in the San Francisco Bay
Area. Los Angeles, the states most popu-
lous county, also approved the measure, but
Yolo was the only inland county where
Proposition 34 got more than 50 percent of
the vote.
Capital punishment is a criminal justice
issue, but it is one that cannot be divorced
from emotion and hard-held personal
beliefs. Supporters of the death penalty did
not need to spend much energy countering
arguments about the costs and unequal
application of executions. They knew they
could sway voters by painting Proposition
34 supporters as sympathizing with child
murderers, torturers and cop killers, the
worst of the worst, despite the fact that a
life sentence is an extremely harsh punish-
ment.
Some supporters of Proposition 34 think
they may have waited too long to get their
key messages before voters. Many people
who cast ballots against Proposition 34 did
so before campaign ads aired stressing the
number of innocent people mistakenly con-
demned to death and the high cost of capital
punishment. Perhaps that would have made
a difference, but probably not. California
remains a strong supporter of capital pun-
ishment, although that support is gradually
eroding because of generational change and
a wider recognition of how challenging it
will be to fix a broken system.
Overall, Californians appear open to mod-
est reform on law and order issues . But
they are not ready at least not yet to
join 17 other states in ending the ultimate
form of punishment.

NEW YORK Optimism that
President Barack Obama and
Congressional leaders will reach a deal on
the budget decit and avoid the scal
cliff helped stocks notch their first
advance in four days.
The market started lower Friday but
spiked higher shortly before midday as
the top members of the House and Senate
spoke at the White House following a
closed-door session with Obama. House
Speaker John Boehner and Senate
Minority Leader Mitch McConnell both
said they offered higher tax revenue as
part of a deal. Boehner said he outlined a
framework that is consistent with
Obamas call for a balanced approach
of both higher revenue and spending cuts.
Its a good start ... the fact that they
were all standing together, said Ben
Schwartz, the chief market strategist at
Lightspeed Financial, a New York-based
broker.
The Dow Jones industrial average
closed up 45.93 points, or 0.4 percent, at
12,588.31, after falling as much as 71
points at mid-morning. The Standard &
Poors 500 index rose 6.55 points, or 0.5
percent, to 1,359.88 and the Nasdaq rose
16.19 points, or 0.6 percent to 2,853.13.
Investor concern that Obama and
Congress wont reach a deal on how to
cut the decit has caused a sell-off in
stocks since Election Day. Stocks fell
Wednesday after Obama insisted that
higher taxes on wealthy Americans would
have to be part of any deal and that he
would not cave to Republicans who have
pressed for tax cuts first passed by
President George W. Bush to be extended
for all income earners.
The Dow is down 5 percent since Nov.
6. If an agreement isnt made, automatic
government spending cuts and tax
increases are set to kick in at the begin-
ning of next year. The measures total
about $700 billion for 2013 and could
send the country back into recession.
Mitch Stapley, chief investment ofcer
at Fifth Third Asset Management, says
that investors and traders are likely to be
in for a rough ride until the politicians
have brokered a deal.
Volatility is going to be the hallmark
as we go through this process ... Its going
to be a very choppy period coming up,
said Stapley, who is based in Grand
Rapids, Mich.
The Dow still ended lower for the
week, logging a fourth straight weekly
decline. That slump has pared the indexs
gains for the year to 3 percent. The S&P
500 also ended the week lower, and has
fallen three of the last four weeks.

Animal abuse settlement reached
FRESNO A California slaughterhouse where video-
taped mistreatment of cows prompted the largest meat
recall in U.S. history has reached a symbolic $500 million
settlement with an animal welfare group and the federal
government.
The record penalty for the animal abuse case is not
expected to be paid because Riverside County-based
Hallmark Meat Co. is bankrupt.
The tentative settlement of the civil lawsuit was
announced Friday by the Humane Society of the United
States, which led the case and later was joined by the
U.S. Department of Justice.
Its a deterrence judgment, HSUS attorney Jonathan R.
Lovvorn said. It informs other federal government con-
tractors that when your contract says you provide humane
handling, if you dont do that youre likely to end up bank-
rupt as well.
The case marked the rst time federal fraud statutes
were used in an animal abuse case, the HSUS said. As a
supplier of meats for the national school lunch program,
the company had signed federal contracts certifying that it
would provide humane treatment of animals sent to the
company for slaughter.
The widely circulated video shot by an undercover oper-
ative in 2007 showed downer cows those too weak or
sick to walk being dragged by chains, rammed by fork-
lifts and sprayed with high-pressure water by employees
who wanted them to stand and walk to slaughter.
The video sparked the largest beef recall in U.S. history
in 2008. Nearly 37 million pounds of the 143 million
pounds recalled had gone to school lunch programs, and
most had been eaten by the time of the recall. The recall
cost taxpayers $150 million.
The settlement announced Friday is with the two main
defendants in the case.
Under the terms, father and son Donald Hallmark Sr. and
Donald Hallmark Jr., general partners of Hallmark Meat
Co., have ve years to pay a separate settlement of
$316,802, or the bulk of their remaining personal assets.

WASHINGTON Threatened with
repeal just weeks ago, President Barack
Obamas health care law now appears on
track in close to half the states, with oth-
ers playing catch-up and the administra-
tion readying a fallback for states not
wishing to participate.
Friday was the original deadline for
states to notify Washington if they would
play a role in building new health insur-
ance markets through which the unin-
sured can get coverage starting in 2014.
Though the administration granted a
months extension, most states have
already made their intentions known.
As of Friday, 23 states plus
Washington, D.C., were proceeding; 15
said theyd defer to the federal govern-
ment to run their markets and 12 were
still mulling over their options. The most-
ly blue group proceeding included ve
Republican-led states. The undecided
included several states that seemed to be
moving toward an active role.
Postelection its really been game
on, said Kelly Barnes, leader of the
health care group at the
PricewaterhouseCoopers consulting rm.
Republican presidential candidate Mitt
Romney had vowed to begin dismantling
Obamacare his rst day in ofce. But
Romney lost, and instead GOP governors
are scrambling to see if they can nd an
accommodation with the administration
after two years of ghting the presidents
signature law.
The president won the election...and
New Jersey is going to comply with the
Affordable Care Act, Republican Gov.
Chris Christie said Friday. Christie said
he still has questions about costs and is
weighing his decision. Earlier this year he
vetoed legislation creating a state
exchange, as the new insurance markets
are called.
A check by the Associated Press found
that 16 states plus Washington, D.C.,
want to build their own exchanges.
Starting Jan. 1, 2014, individuals, fami-
lies and small businesses will be able to
buy private coverage through an
exchange in their state, with most con-
sumers getting government assistance to
pay premiums.

NEW YORK Twinkies may not last
forever after all.
Hostess Brands Inc., the maker of the
spongy snack with a mysterious cream
lling, said Friday it would shutter after
years of struggling with management
turmoil, rising labor costs and the ever-
changing tastes of Americans even as its
pantry of sugary cakes seemed suspend-
ed in time.
Some beloved Hostess brands such as
Ding Dongs and Ho Hos likely will be
snapped up by buyers and nd a second
life, but for now the company says its
snack cakes should be on shelves for
another week or so. The news stoked an
outpouring of nostalgia around kitchen
tables, water coolers and online as peo-
ple relived childhood memories of their
favorite Hostess goodies.
Customer streamed into the Wonder
Hostess Bakery Outlet in a strip mall in
Indianapolis Friday afternoon after they
heard about the companys demise.
Charles Selke, 42, pulled a pack of
Zingers raspberry-avored dessert cakes
out of a plastic bag stuffed with treats as
he left the store.
How do these just disappear from
your life? he asked. Thats just not
right, man. Im loyal. I love these things,
and Im diabetic.
After hearing the news on the radio
Friday morning, Samantha Caldwell of
Chicago took a detour on her way to
work to stop at a CVS store for a pack-
age of Twinkies to have with her morn-
ing tea and got one for her 4-year-old
son as well.
This way he can say, I had one of
those, Caldwell, 41, said.
Its a sober end for a storied name.
Hostess, whose roster of brands dates as
far back as 1888, hadnt invested heavi-
ly in marketing or innovation in recent
years as it struggled with debt and man-
agement changes.

LOS ANGELES California contin-
ued its economic recovery as the unem-
ployment rate dipped to 10.1 percent in
October, led by increases in private sector
jobs such as construction, retail and well-
paying professional work.
The state added 48,500 nonfarm jobs
last month compared with September and
the jobless rate dipped a tenth of a percent
in one month, according to the California
Employment Development Department.
About 14.4 million people were work-
ing.
The private sector is adding a healthy
number of jobs, department spokesman
Kevin Callori said. Definitely some
good trends (are) being seen.
The department also sharply revised
previous gures, showing that California
gained 32,000 jobs in September instead
of 8,500.
Californias jobless rate has fallen 1.4
percent since October of last year as the
state added 295,300 nonfarm jobs.
Overall, California continues an eco-
nomic turnaround that began in February
2010. The state has gained nearly
575,000 jobs since then, Callori said.
It was the 16th consecutive month of
private job growth.
Construction added 4,100 jobs in
October and some 27,700 jobs over 12
months.
Compared to recession years, thats
very good because we were losing many,
many jobs each month, Callori said.
The category of trade, transportation
and utilities gained the largest monthly
increase, adding 24,700 jobs.

The thought of another football team using its locker room

Sequoia dominates M-A
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
It rained Friday night at Sequoia High School
during the Central Coast Section Division IV
opener between No. 4 Menlo School and No. 5
Monte Vista-Christian.
Water fells from the heavens.
And so did Jack Heneghan passes.
The Menlo quarterback was a rainmaker in a
blue uniform and shoulder pads Friday night,
carrying the Knights to an overwhelming 42-14
win over the Mustangs. Before Monte Vista
could take cover from the storm, Heneghan had
already ooded its defense with 294 yards
passing on 14 completions to take a 35-0 lead
at the half.
From then on, it was a matter of watching the
last 24 minutes drip off the clock as a formali-
ty.
Hes a great player, said Menlo head coach
Mark Newton of his quarterback. He has a
great understanding of our offense. He has a
great understanding of defensive fronts and
coverages. Hes got great pocket presence.

The Sequoia football team had been missing
a big part of its offense for most of the season
as running back Matt Jenkins was banged up
for most of the season.
But the junior showed how good the
Cherokees offense can be when hes healthy.
Jenkins rushed for 159 yards on 20 carries,
Dylan Anderson scored on runs of 19 and 35
yards and quarterback Mike Taylor accounted
for 122 yards of offense as Sequoia dominat-
ed Menlo-Atherton 27-7 in the rst round of
the Central Coast Section Division I playoffs.
[The game] played out like I thought, said
Sequoia coach Rob Poulos. I felt if we could
get through the rst quarter without any hic-
cups, wed be OK.
With the win, fth-seeded Sequoia moves
into the seminals where its will face top-
seeded Milpitas (8-3) next week. Milpitas
crushed No. 8 Silver Creek 56-7.
Not even three first-half turnovers was
enough to derail Sequoia (9-2 overall). Mainly

Bears Cutler to miss 49ers game with concussion
LAKE FOREST, Ill. The Chicago Bears were bracing for
an injury to Jay Cutler long before the season started.
Now, theyll see just how prepared they are.
Cutler will miss Mondays game at San Francisco because of
a concussion, leaving the Bears without their starting quarter-
back. The team announced the decision
Friday, meaning Jason Campbell is the like-
ly starter against the 49ers.
Star receiver Brandon Marshall said
Cutler is getting better, but he also said
theres a bigger picture that goes beyond
this weeks game.
Our life, our health, is more important
than football, Marshall said. I think well
get Jay back sooner than later.
For now, the Bears believe they have
enough to get by. They brought in Campbell
in the offseason for a situation like this, and he found out before
Thursdays practice that hell be starting.
You denitely dont want to see anyone get hurt or injured in
this business, said Campbell, whos made 70 starts in his career
with Washington and Oakland. We understand it is a tough
sport. Sometimes, things like that happen.
Cutlers status was in question after he sat out the second half
of Sunday nights loss to Houston. The Bears believe he was
injured on a helmet-to-helmet hit by the Texans Tim Dobbins,
who was ned $30,000 by the league, late in the second quarter.

Jay Cutler

SAN FRANCISCO President
Barack Obama has already given his
hometown Chicago Bears the nod for
best defense in the NFL.
San Francisco linebacker Patrick
Willis insists he is hardly one to argue
with the commander in chief, especially
considering Obama will be running the
country from the oval ofce for another
four years.
I saw that, Willis said, laughing.
Chicagos defense, theyre playing
very well right now. They have some
tremendous talent on that side of the
ball, but theyre playing great team
defense right now. Kudos to them. But
at the same time, too, we have our own
defense to worry about that were trying
to continue to make better. Thats our
focus.
San Francisco defensive tackle Ray
McDonald will let the president have his
say, too.
Hes the man, McDonald said. You
cant argue with him. His opinion mat-
ters.
Chicagos dominant defense is cer-
tainly playing the very smothering, run-
stopping style of football the 49ers did
last season and the form San
Francisco hopes to get back to in the
seasons second half as it tries to lock up
a rst-round playoff bye.
On Nov. 5 during Monday Night
Football, a night before he was re-elect-
ed, Obama said the ball-hawking Bears
have the best defense in the league
right now led by coordinator Rod
Marinelli who calls his units chem-
istry special.
The Bears (7-2) boast the talented
linebacker tandem of Brian Urlacher
and Lance Briggs. On the 49ers side, its
the duo of Willis and NaVorro Bowman.
Not that Briggs is paying too much
attention to who has the best linebackers
or defense, for that matter. He knows
everyone will get a glimpse come
Monday at Candlestick Park.
By ranking this week, the 49ers stand
third in the league with the Bears two
spots back at No. 5 in overall defense.
Chicago is fourth at stopping the run,
San Francisco sits at seventh. Defending
the pass, the Niners are fth and the
Bears 10th.
How do I feel about it? Doesnt
change the way I play, doesnt change
the way we play over here, Briggs said.
Thats the ranking. And the thing about
a ranking is, the ranking doesnt mean
anything if you dont get to that Super
Bowl. Thats the goal, going to the
Super Bowl.
The Bears have an NFL-best 19 inter-
ceptions. No arguing these teams are
awfully close. San Francisco (6-2-1)
allows an NFL-low 14.1 points per
game, followed by Chicago at 14.8. The
Bears have 26 sacks tied for sixth
to San Franciscos 17.
49ers general manager Trent Baalke
kept his entire starting 11 intact from
last seasons defense, though linebacker
Parys Haralson was lost for the season
with a torn triceps muscle.
As far as the president goes, hes our
president so you cant say much about
who he says is the best, Willis said.
Its his hometown, so he has every right
to say them, but I guess well see when
its all said and done.
Both teams are eager to bounce back
the 49ers from a disappointing 24-24
tie, the NFLs rst in four years, at home
against the division rival Rams last
week, and the Bears a 13-6 loss at
Houston.
On the offensive side, both teams
were busy this week preparing their
backups for the key NFC matchup on
the big stage after starters Jay Cutler of
Chicago and San Franciscos Alex
Smith each was lost to a concussion last
Sunday.

The San Francisco 49ers coach was
back at work Friday and red up to
be there a day after undergoing a
minor procedure for an irregular
heartbeat that kept him away for all
of half a day.
Im fine, Im fine, Harbaugh
said. No limits. Going about every-
thing as normal. Had a little irregular
heartbeat. Ive had that before. Now
that I have the procedure, a car-
diovert, its amazing. It gets the heart

In 2006, Decensae White was one
of the highest prole basketball
recruits to come out of San Mateo
County in recent memory when the
former Serra standout decided to play
for legendary coach Bobby Knight at
Texas Tech University.
Things didnt turn out the way
White had planned. He appeared in 30
games for the Red Raiders his fresh-
man season, but that number dwin-
dled to 10 the following season. Two
games into his junior year, he decided
to transfer to Santa Clara University.
After sitting out the NCAA-man-
dated one season as a Division I trans-
fer, the move quickly zzled without
him playing a game for the Broncos.
According to a quote from the San
Jose Mercury News Jon Wilner,
White was giving up basketball.
But when youve done something
nearly your entire life, its hard to stay
away. Plus, there was some unnished
business for White. Thats why this
year, he enrolled at San Francisco
State University and is playing for the
Division II Gators.
The Gators struggled last year, n-
ishing with an overall record of 10-17.
I just decided to come back to
school and found out I was eligible to
play. I called the coaching staff and
they told me if I was willing to come
in and work hard I had a chance to
come and be on the team, White said.
Its denitely been a process getting
back to playing basketball. I took a lot
of time off. Not playing and just get-
ting away from it for a little bit and
then watching on TV, I just wanted to
get back into it.
A big factor in Whites decision to
return was the birth of his son. Now a
year old, White decided, if nothing
else, he would go back to school to
earn his degree in communications.
Anything to better not only his life,
but that of his young sons life.
That was probably the major fac-
tor, White said.
At the same time, however, he was
itching to get back on the court. The
re was really re-stoked after he
played in the San Francisco Pro-Am
league this past summer. He initially
went back to Kezar Pavilion to watch
former teammates play. White had
played for the South Bay team previ-
ously, so he went up to the coach and
asked for a jersey.
He let me on the team, White
said. I just played the rest of the pro-
am season and said, OK, lets see
what I can do to getting back into
playing.
He initially chose San Francisco
State mainly because it was close to
his Pacica home. When he decided
he wanted to give basketball one last
shot, he contacted the Gators coach-
ing staff and school administration
and began the process to check his eli-
gibility. Once he got all that squared
away, there was a familiarity level on
the San Francisco State campus, espe-
cially in the Gators gym. There are a
number of familiar faces and names
on the Gators roster, including Steve
Sanders, who spent two years at
Caada, and Alli Austria and Art
Fodor, transfers from Skyline.
Another former Serra player, Jordan
Reudy, transferred from Foothill
College and former Bellarmine stand-
out Max Fodor is in his third year with
the Gators.
While White has never played with
or against any of teammates previous-
ly, just seeing familiar high school and
college names provided comfort for
White.
Basically, rst and foremost, I
wanted to go back to school and San
Francisco State was just the school
down the street (from where I live),
White said. As I got there and talking
with Reudy and having that relation-
ship at Serra and other guys I played
AAU with, everything is familiar and
basically comfortable. My dad went
there, and my former (Serra) team-
mate Chaz Thomas dad used to coach
here and we used to play in the gym
when we were kids.
White has one year of college eligi-
bility remaining and he doesnt have
tremendous individual goals. Taking
the winding path he has, the 24-year-
old doesnt want to be the star of the
team, he just wants to help out in any
way he can whether on the court or
in the locker room.
It helps me more than anything not
taking anything for granted and prac-
ticing hard every day. This is my sec-
ond and third and last chance to do
something with basketball, White
said. I want to do things the right
way and play as hard as I can and
hope that can rub off on the rest of the
team.
Not that White doesnt still have the
game to help the Gators win. He is
already a key member of the squad
and expects to see plenty of playing
time. He had 19 points, seven
rebounds and three blocks in an 89-80

out. The Cherokees held M-A (6-5) to 281
yards of total offense, with only 12 yards
coming on the ground. Sequoia also forced
three M-A turnovers and turned those into 13
points. In the second half, the Cherokees
stopped the Bears on downs three times and
sacked M-A quarterback Zack Moore four
times.
Our defense has been doing that all year,
Poulos said. Theres been a number of games
where we stopped guys.
Neither team managed to nd the end zone
in the rst quarter, although the Cherokees
turned the ball over twice once at the M-A
23-yard line and again at the Bears 1 on the
rst play of the second quarter.
M-A, however, could not take advantage.
After the Bears were forced to punt on their
rst drive of the second quarter, Sequoia nal-
ly stuffed the ball into the end zone. A 24-yard
punt gave Sequoia the ball at the Bears 29
and the Cherokees needed just two plays to
nd hit pay dirt. Jenkins gained 10 yards on
the rst play before Anderson bolted up the
middle for a 35-yard score to put Sequoia up
7-0.
The teams then exchanged punts before a
fumble recovery by Sequoias Eduardo
Alvarado gave Sequoia another short eld
with which to work this time taking over at
the Bears 9. The M-A defense stiffened, how-
ever, and held the Cherokees to just a 36-yard
Tommy Lopiparo field goal for a 10-0
Sequoia lead with 4:55 left in the rst half.
Despite controlling the rst half, it appeared
M-A would make a game of it. On the Bears
ensuing drive, they marched 78 yards on 12
plays, with the key being a 48-yard Moore to
Ryan Roberts catch-and-run, taking the ball
down to the Sequoia 8-yard line. Tasi Teu then
bulled his way into the end zone on the next
play and Sequoias lead was cut to 10-7 at
halftime.
Turns out that would be last time the Bears
would sniff the end zone.
Sequoia took the kickoff to start the second
half and drove 75 yards on seven plays, cul-
minating with a 35-yard touchdown run by
Anderson to put the Cherokees up 17-7.
Alvarado came up with an interception on M-
As next drive, but Sequoia had to settle for a
32-yard Lopiparo eld goal to go up 20-7.
Sequoias defense set up the Cherokees last
score when Kite Lauese blasted Moore from
the blind side, which knocked the ball loose.
Gabe de los Reyes scooped up the fumble and
rumbled to the Bears 2-yard line. Two plays
later, Taylor clawed his way into the end zone
for the nal margin of victory.

executing in the rst half and all-but burying
the Mustangs. The Knights amassed 344
yards of total offense in the games rst 24
minutes, scoring on all ve of their posses-
sions.
Offensively, the game was sound, Newton
said. Monte Vista is a very well coached
team. They have good players. We played
very, very well in the rst half to make it look
like it wasnt close. Our guys did a great job.
Our coaches did a great job preparing them.
Thats a good football team we handled pretty
effectively in the rst half.
While Heneghan marched the Knights up
and down the eld, it was Heru Peacock car-
rying Menlo into the end zone time and time
again. Peacock gained just 48 yards on eight
touches in that rst half, but four of those
ended with Peacock handing the ball to a man
in a striped shirt following a touchdown.
It was good, Peacock said of the Menlo
offense. I had all my boys blocking for me.
Our quarterback was doing well. It was just
really nice to see everyone gelling together
and nding our groove. I think the key is that
our coaches prepared us really well. We also
had a lot of sophomores step up.
Peacock found glory four plays into the
game on a six-yard touchdown run to make it
7-0. Less than three minutes later, a three-yard
run doubled the lead and ve minutes after
that, Peacock caught a little Heneghan shovel
pass and turned it into a 23-yard touchdown
catch to make it 21-0 with 2:36 left in the rst
quarter.
I felt really good, Peacock said. I felt like
everyone on my team had my back. We had
guys like Max Parker making catches down
the eld to open up the defense all our
great receivers running deep routes really
opens it up for the run game, too. So I really
feel like it was a team effort.
Heneghan found Connor Stastny on an
eight-yard touchdown pass with 9:01 left in
the rst half to cap off a ve-play drive. And
then following a Monte Vista turnover on
downs, the Menlo offense ate up the last ve
minutes of the half with Peacock punching the
ball into the end zone from three yards out to
make it 35-0 and deate the Mustangs almost
completely.
Monte Vista gained 144 yards in the rst
half.
We knew they were dangerous and could
throw the ball down the eld, Newton said.
They have a couple good backs. Our guys
did a good job on defense dealing with the
rush lanes and the angles and were happy
with that.
Up comfortably, the Menlo defense did ease
up and allow a 13-play, 80-yard Mustang
drive to start the second half and make it 35-
7. But Jack Katzman and Jack Marren hooked
up on the rst play of the fourth quarter for an
18-yard touchdown pass and a 42-7 lead that
began the running clock with 11:43 left in the
game.
Monte Vista added another score late.
Heneghan nished 15 of 20 for 311 yards
and two touchdowns. Peacock added 31 yards
rushing in the second half to nish with 79 for
the game.
Menlo moves on to face No. 1 seed Seaside
next week.

Warriors dominate paint
in win over Minnesota
MINNEAPOLIS Mark
Jacksons Golden State Warriors have
started exing their muscles and pick-
ing up steam after being pushed
around in a loss to Denver last week-
end.
Rick Adelmans magnicent nine
Minnesota Timberwolves have nally
started to wear down after a spirited
start to the season and desperately
need the break they have coming up.
David Lee had 18 points and 13
rebounds and the Warriors dominated
inside during a 106-98 victory over the
Timberwolves on Friday night.
Carl Landry added 15 points and
seven boards and Stephen Curry had
17 points and six assists for the
Warriors (5-4), who outscored
Minnesota 58-22 in the paint.
After the Nuggets owned them
inside in a double-overtime win on
Saturday, the Warriors have responded
with two decisive performances in the
paint in wins over the Hawks and
Wolves.
We talked about it losing to Denver
a couple of games ago because they
outrebounded us and they dominated
us, Jackson said. So we made the
adjustments and fortunately the last
two games weve been doing a good
job of securing the basketball, closing
out defensive possessions.
Alexey Shved had 22 points and
seven assists and Derrick Williams had
23 points and seven rebounds for the
Timberwolves (5-4), who are starting
to succumb to the injuries that have
ravaged them early this season. Now
they have four much-needed days off
to try to recuperate.
Were running out of gas a little
bit, said Andrei Kirilenko, who had
18 points, six rebounds and four
blocks.
The Wolves have been playing with
just nine players for the last three
games. Nikola Pekovic (sprained left
ankle), J.J. Barea (sprained left foot)
and Brandon Roy (sore right knee) are
out for the short term. Kevin Love
(right hand) and Ricky Rubio (left
knee) arent expected to make their
season debuts until December and
Chase Budinger (left knee) is out for
three to four months.
Harrison Barnes had 18 points and
nine rebounds and the Warriors outre-
bounded Minnesota 50-34. Golden
State led 90-76 with eight minutes to
play, but the scrappy Wolves clawed
back in it, just as theyve done all sea-
son.
Shveds runner cut it to 92-89 with
four minutes to go, but the short-hand-
ed Wolves just didnt have enough in
the tank to nish it off.
Lee hit a short jumper and Charles
Jenkins and Barnes both scored on
easy drives to close it out. It was a nice
win for the Warriors to start a tough
three-game road trip that includes
games at Oklahoma City and Dallas.

wasnt the proudest day in CSM football
history as the team watched from out-
side the chain linked fence as the squads
played to a 33-31 outcome.
And so, with the possibility of re-liv-
ing that moment, the Bulldogs played
like a team that had no intention of see-
ing its season end just yet, beating up on
Santa Rosa 54-30 in the NorCal confer-
ence closer last weekend.
They stepped up and they played
well, Tulloch said. Santa Rosa came
out very spirited. It was their bowl
game. They were kind of letting it all
hang out there, throwing a bunch of dif-
ferent things at us. Our guys fought
through it and really nished strong.
The Bulldogs set the tone from the
open when Sam Atoe turned an inter-
ception into a 61-yard touchdown. And
after Santa Rosa took the lead by con-
trolling the ball and the clock, the CSM
offense went to work, picking apart the
Santa Rosa defense with the run game.
We completely controlled the clock
and the game and took over, Tulloch
said. They couldnt stop Blake
[Plattsmier] and our rushing attack.
George Naufahu ran so hard, so physi-
cal. At some point, you can see them
wear down. So, it was good to see us
take control like that.
Plattsmier had his best game since
taking over the quarterback reins. He
minimized his mistakes throwing the
ball and rushed for 194 yards and four
touchdowns.
He did a great job. He read it really
well, Tulloch said. Every time he
touched it, he ran with more and more
condence. To see him, as a quarter-
back, you put a lot of pressure on your-
self and the last couple of weeks, hes
been really hard on himself with some
of the games and the nishes, and to see
him really take control and take the lead
was big.
Defensively, the Bulldogs bent but did
not break.
Theyre (Santa Rosa) always going
to get yards, Tulloch said. But, that
doesnt always translate into points. Our
main thing was, give them the short
stuff, were going to run to and were
going to make sure to keep them out of
the end zone.
And so, with their sixth win in hand,
the Bulldogs are set to play their seventh
Bulldog Bowl where theyll welcome
Sierra College, a team that nished 5-5
on the year.
Were excited about this one,
Tulloch said. I think this team has a lot
of character. A lot of young men have
been with us for two or three years. Its
a really special group of sophomores.
When you look at all these guys
theyre greyshirt kids. I was really
happy for them that we were able to get
into this bowl game. They deserve it.
They put so much work in over the last
couple of years. We want to make sure
we nish that thing strong.
Sierra, much like Santa Rosa, is a fan
of the pass. Theyve thrown for an aver-
age of 242 yards a game this season.
The throw the ball a lot, Tulloch
said. They have to two great receivers.
Theyre as good as advertised. Theyre
as good as any receiver tandem weve
seen this year. Were going to have our
hands full with them. They run the ball
at times very effectively.
Tulloch is talking about Vince Mayle
and Frankie Gomes, who combined for
102 catches and over 1,600 yards in
2012. Myles McKee pulls the trigger
from the quarterback position. He threw
27 touchdowns in the regular season, but
also 20 interceptions.
Defensively, Sierra features a monster
on the defensive line in Devante Bond
and his 17 sacks. Hes third on the team
in tackles with 74.
Kickoff for the 2012 Bothman
Bulldog Bowl is set for 1 p.m.
BOWL
By Josh Dubow
OAKLAND The New Orleans Saints have
overcome an 0-4 start and the distractions from
the bounty scandal to ght their way right back
into position for a possible late-season playoff
run.
First they have to get their record back to .500.
All that stands between the high-powered
Saints and that modest goal is a struggling
Oakland Raiders team that has allowed 97
points the past two weeks and matched a fran-
chise-worst for points allowed in last weeks 55-
20 loss at Baltimore.
Man, if Baltimore can put up 55, you dont
even want to see what New Orleans can do,
Raiders defensive tackle Tommy Kelly said.
The Saints (4-5) have done quite a bit since the
0-4 start under a cloud from the bounty allega-
tions that led to a season-long suspension for
coach Sean Payton and other punishments that
have been a distraction all year. With four wins in
the past ve games, including a 31-27 victory last
week over previously unbeaten Atlanta, New
Orleans has worked its way back into contention.
But there is little margin for error. The sched-
ule gets much tougher after Sundays game in
Oakland (3-6) with the following three games
against division leaders, meaning the Saints can
ill-afford a slipup against the struggling Raiders.
When you dig yourself a hole like we have,
every game you play is going to be critical,
interim coach Joe Vitt said. Anything other than
our best effort and were going to have a long
Sunday.
The Saints have been close to their best in
recent weeks. After uncharacteristically throw-
ing ve interceptions the rst three games, Drew
Brees has completed 71 percent of his passes the
last two weeks with ve TDs and only one inter-
ception. The running game, energized by Chris
Ivory, has produced 288 yards on the ground the
past two weeks.
And even the porous defense has stepped up
of late, holding Philadelphia to 13 points two
weeks ago and coming up with the late goal-line
stand that sealed the win against the Falcons.
Theyre back in the groove, Raiders corner-
back Ron Bartell said. Theyre doing what they
normally do. ... Hes putting up huge numbers.
Theyre doing a better job of protecting him.
Hes getting the ball out of his hands. His
receivers are making plays. Basically the normal
New Orleans Saints offense.
Which is whats so scary for the Raiders.
The Raiders have been up-and-down defen-
sively this season, getting gashed on the ground
early in the season by Miami and then getting
overwhelmed by Peyton Manning and Denver
before a bye week.
Oakland then put together a fairly strong
three-week stretch, holding down Matt Ryan
and the Falcons to one offensive touchdown and
beating one-win Jacksonville and Kansas City in
back-to-back weeks.
But the last two weeks have been as bad as its
ever been defensively in Oakland. Tampa Bay
rookie Doug Martin ran for 251 yards in a 42-32
win two weeks ago. That was followed by the
drubbing in Baltimore when Joe Flacco picked
the Raiders apart for 341 yards and three touch-
downs as the Ravens matched the most points
ever allowed by the Raiders.
I know the team that were going to face is
not the team that gave up 55 points last week or
42 points against Tampa, Brees said.
Its a play here, its a play there, its a big play
here, a big play there that can typically affect the
outcome of a game. This defense has a lot of
very talented players on it. They have played
very, very well at times. I know that, for us,
were going to have to play our best game and
worry about our execution, and thats what
were focused on.
That Oakland is struggling so much on
defense comes as a bit of a surprise for the
Saints, who know Oakland rst-year coach
Dennis Allen so well. Allen spent ve years as a
defensive assistant in New Orleans, helping the
team win the Super Bowl following the 2009
season as defensive backs coach.
After spending one year as defensive coordi-
nator in Denver the 40-year-old Allen got his
rst head coaching gig this year in Oakland.
He deserves it, man, Saints safety Roman
Harper said. Hes a great coach. He under-
stands everything it takes to win and I know hell
get those guys going. Theyve had some ups and
downs but at the end of the day thats going to
happen, especially when youre a new coach
somewhere. Hes going to have them just ne
though.
High-powered Saints visit struggling Raiders
exhibition loss to Cal. He said he has worked a lot as the back-up
point guard, which at 6-6, could be a major mismatch for any
other point guard in the California Collegiate Athletic
Association. He also gotten time at the small forward spot and
will also see time at shooting guard as well as power forward.
Heck, even some time at center is not out of the question.
Im the second-tallest guy on the team, White said. We have
a good, competitive team. I just want to get out there and compete.
Individually, I dont have any individual goals, whatever I can
give to the team will be good. Its been a long time coming just
getting to this point, as far as working every day.
There are obvious differences (between playing Division I and
Division II). But basketball is basketball. Its a different situation,
but its a great situation for me, just the coaching staff giving me
the opportunity to play again.

Choices lift Call of
Duty: Black Ops II
By Ryan Pearson
Youve always had to play the good soldier in Call of
Duty games: The only path to the end was to follow
orders, from defending a key position to killing off certain
enemies.
The restricted approach meant that while the military
shooter franchise skyrocketed to massive popularity
through immersive graphics and innovative online multi-
player battles, its single-player campaigns got rightly knocked
as linear and forgettable.
By adding the element of choice, Call of Duty: Black Ops II
(Activision, for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii U, PC, $59.99)
has revitalized the brand to become the best CoD since 2007s

Medal of Honor a missfire
By Derrik J. Lang
LOS ANGELES The punishment of Navy SEALs who worked on the
video game Medal of Honor: Warghter is the latest in a series of misres
for the interactive mediums popular military shooter genre, which continues
to face scrutiny as high-denition graphics become more lifelike and
gamemakers attempt to create the most authentic experiences possible.
These games are now trying to portray things and tell stories
around current events, said Casey Lynch, editor-in-chief of the
gaming site IGN.com. When youre dealing with current
topics, theres a higher level of sensitivity. I think most peo-
ple would agree theres not the same level of sensitivity
when compared to old World War II or Vietnam War
games.

skills to better prepare them for conferences,
such as the one which took place at Stanford
University. Conferences ultimately serve as a
testing ground to apply fostered skill sets in
the hopes that students will improve through
practice.
And yet, in considering Model U.N., one
must also consider the matter of awards. For
at conferences like Stanford, each committee
recognizes a small fraction of participants.
Honorable Mentions. Outstanding
Delegate. And, of course, the coveted Best
Delegate.
As in any case, awards beget competition.
And I have no problem with competition: The
edge serves to inspire even the most sedate to
invest a little more of himself. Yet, I do have a
problem with awards when competition
begets unethical, manipulative behavior.
Consider the following. Saturday morning,
a fellow Aragon student in the 6th Legal
Committee approached me and proudly
reported that he had stayed up until 2 a.m.
nalizing preparations for that days debate.
After nishing the previous evenings session
at 10:30 p.m. and presumably returning home
no earlier than 11 p.m., he had jammed out
another three hours. He was exhausted, but
clutching a McCafe Frappe, he was ready to
go.
Later that evening, he emerged from the
nal session 15 minutes late. He was clearly
agitated. A few questions revealed that two
other individuals who had collaborated on the
same document had decided to omit the
names of its authors one by one, including this
student. Doing so would have placed them in
a more advantageous position to receive an
award. This student had effectively been a vic-
tim of intellectual property theft.
While whether the perpetrators were ulti-
mately not penalized or deemed ineligible for
any recognition remained ambiguous, whats
sad is the fact that such breaches in ethical
conduct are not the exception. Though they
are certainly not the norm, they have become
more commonplace, at least in my eyes. And
in the overwhelming majority of cases, the
impetus behind such behavior traces back to
the incentive of winning.
Thus, returning to the idea that Model U.N.
is a catalyst for improving public speaking
and debate. Recognizing that participants are
rst and foremost students and, in this case,
students of foreign policy, current events and
international relations. Appreciating that
Model U.N.s nominal creed is one of diplo-
macy and compromise.
Is Model United Nations a conference or a
competition?
In my experience, it can be one or the other,
but not consistently both. Instead of an award,
give all students a certicate of merit and eval-
uate each individual according to a set of cri-
teria. Allocate time for each student to meet
with the committees chair to discuss the mer-
its of his performance. And by and large, reaf-
rm MUN educational utility as an extra-
curricular, not as a medium to enable petty
politics and immoral behavior.

STUDENT
disclosing classied information to the cre-
ators of Warghter, a modern-day, rst-per-
son shooter from developer Danger Close
Games and publisher Electronic Arts Inc.
We worked really closely with more than
two dozen operators on the mission objec-
tives, operations, maneuvers and various ele-
ments in the game that helped shape our sin-
gle-player campaign, things like the weapon-
ry, the gear, the way these operatives perform
door breeches, said Luke Thai, producer at
Danger Close Games, ahead of the games
Oct. 23 debut.
Thai noted that both the gamemakers and
military personnel who consulted on
Warghter were cognizant about not detail-
ing too much about current conicts or
making them boring in virtual form. One of the
games missions tasks players with explosive-
ly battling a band of Somali pirates. Thai said
the real-world inspiration for that level was far
less ery.
In terms of the various conicts that are still
going on throughout the world, we touch upon
those, but we dont replicate them exactly, he
said. They serve as dotted-line inspiration for
things that go on in the game. For instance, our
overarching single-player campaign story
revolves around a global hunt to shut down a
ctional terror network.
Still, to ramp up the games realism,
Warghter creators mimicked real-world
weaponry and centered the plot on the ripped-
from-the-headlines threat of an industrial
explosive known as PETN, or pentaerythritol
tetranitrate, the same material used in 2001 by
convicted shoe bomber Richard Reid when he
tried to destroy a trans-Atlantic ight.
The tactic doesnt seem to have helped fuel
Warghter sales. The NPD Group, which
tracks sales of new physical products, said last
week that Warghter ranked eighth in over-
all game sales in October, behind such titles as
NBA 2K13 and Resident Evil 6. EA noted
in an earnings call last month that Warghter
had a weaker than expected performance.
(EA spokesman Peter Nguyen said last
Friday the company has no plans to recall or
alter Medal of Honor: Warghter in light of
the SEALs punishment.)
MOH
tional crisis in 2025. Your moral decisions and
successes or failures in both settings determine
your ending and whether some of the main
characters live long enough to see it.
The narrative is framed by conversations
between elderly Frank Woods and David
Mason, son of his former partner Alex Mason.
The younger Mason is out to stop supervillain
Raul Menendez, with missions in under-siege
Los Angeles, ooded Lahore, Pakistan, and
elsewhere. Woods recounts his own history with
Menendez in ashbacks to Nicaragua, Panama
and an exhilarating Afghanistan level where you
re RPGs on horseback.
The branching narrative is complemented by
two more wrinkles. Strike force missions add
in optional real-time strategy and can end in
success or failure, leading to different outcomes
in the endgame. And for the rst time in CoD,
players get to choose their weapons before each
mission, including unique perks inspired by the
series stellar multiplayer options.
What-ifs abound. What if I had disobeyed that
shoot command? What if I had started that
level with a sniper rie instead of a pistol? What
if Id let invaders blow up that base?
These are the types of questions that elevated
the lauded Mass Effect trilogy, one of many
sources of inspiration for Black Ops II cre-
ators. There are sticky frog gloves as seen in
the fourth Mission: Impossible lm, ying
wingsuits from the third Transformers and a
superrare element called celerium that remind-
ed me of the unobtanium in Avatar. Theres
even a feisty computer whiz named Chloe, a la
24.
So sure, not everything is fresh here.
Gameplay is still mostly of the run and shoot-
everything-that-moves variety. Articial barriers
keep you moving in the right direction despite
the illusion of open space. Your allies some-
times still wait for you to kill the last in a wave
of enemies, just because.
But after completing the campaign in around
seven hours at a review event, I spoke with a fel-
low reviewer and was deeply impressed by how
different our experiences had been. I had
spoiler alert saved the USS Barack Obama
aircraft carrier while shed seen it destroyed.
Likewise, our endings had almost no overlap:
Shed let certain characters die that I had spared
or rescued.

SENIOR CORRESPONDENT
THE SNOWY DAY IN SAN
FRANCISCO. The Snowy Day and
the Art of Ezra Jack Keats at the
Contemporary Jewish Museum is the
rst major exhibition in the United
States to pay tribute to this award-
winning author and illustrator,
whose beloved childrens books
include Whistle for Willie, Peters
Chair and The Snowy Day. The
Snowy Day, the Caldecott Medal-
winning tale of a little boys adven-
tures in the deep, deep snow, was
published in 1962, at the height of
the civil rights movement in
America. The rst modern full-color
picture book to feature an African-
American protagonist, The Snowy
Day went on to become an inspira-
tion for generations of readers, trans-
forming childrens literature forever.
The exhibition at the Contemporary
Jewish Museum features more than
80 original works by Keats, from
preliminary sketches and dummies
or preparatory books, to nal paint-
ings and collages, including exam-
ples of Keatss most introspective but
less-known output inspired by Asian
art and poetry.
The author and illustrator was
born Jacob Ezra Katz in Brooklyn in
1916. His parents were Eastern
European Jewish immigrants and
very poor. Primarily self-taught, he
drew upon memories of growing up
in East New York, one of the most
deprived neighborhoods in the city.
Yet his work transcends the personal
and reects the universal concerns of
children. Keatss experience of anti-
Semitism and poverty in his youth
gave him a lifelong sympathy for
others who suffered prejudice and
want. If, he once remarked, we all
could really see (see as perceive,
understand, discover) each other
exactly as the other is, this would be
a different world. A visit to Keatss
neighborhood is restorative: Peter
and his friends remind us of the sim-
ple joy of being alive. In his illustra-
tions Keats makes dilapidated urban
settings beautiful through his mas-
tery of collage as well as his dramat-
ic use of color. By the end of his life
in 1983, he had illustrated over 80
books, 22 of which he also authored.
To coincide with the exhibition,
Penguin Young Readers Group has
published The Snowy Day: 50th
Anniversary Special Edition, a spe-
cial edition featuring eight pages of
bonus material that include photo-
graphs of Keats and early sketches
for the book.
The Contemporary Jewish
Museum is located at 736 Mission
St. between Third and Fourth streets
in San Francisco. Open daily (except
Wednesday) from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.;
Thursdays from 1 p.m. to 8 p.m. For
information call (415) 655-7800 or
visit www.thecjm.org. The Snowy
Day and the Art of Ezra Jack Keats
runs through Feb. 24, 2013.

CHRISTIAN MARCLAY,
CREATOR OF THE CLOCK,
BRINGS NEW WORK TO STAN-
FORD. Across a bank of four
screens, Maria Callas, Jimi Hendrix,
Marilyn Monroe and scores of other
musicians and actors make some
kind of sound, seemingly in response
to each othermuch like players in
a musical ensemble. This is Christian
Marclays Video Quartet, a 14-
minute DVD projection, on continu-
ous view at the Cantor Arts Center at
Stanford University.
Marclay, born in San Rafael,
California, is a 57-year-old Swiss-
American who has enthralled the art
community for years with his musi-
cal, sculptural and video collage
work. He has performed or recorded
with Sonic Youth, Kronos Quartet
and Merce Cunningham. His pieces
are in the permanent collections of
the San Francisco Museum of
Modern Art, the Museum of Modern
Art, the Whitney Museum of
American Art and the Centre
Pompidou. In 2011, he was recog-
nized as the best artist in the Venice
Biennale, winning the Golden Lion
for his 24-hour, real-time synchro-
nized video collage, The Clock.
Marclay created Video Quartet
on a home computer, using an off-
the-shelf editing/composing pro-
gram. He sampled more than 700
Hollywood, animated or other
lmsrst scrolling through thou-
sands to collect footage of people
singing, playing instruments, tap
dancing, knocking on doors or some-
how making noise. He then choreo-
graphed the snippets into an entirely
new, owing narrative. His govern-
ing impulse as an artist, he has said,
is to take what people nd familiar
and create a new experience.
Connie Wolf, the John & Jill
Freidenrich Director of the Cantor
Arts Center, said shes never seen
anything like Video Quartet. Its
absolutely mesmerizing. Youre
lulled into this enchanting world of
beautiful music and favorite lms
and remarkable pairings of actors
and musicians. You wont want to
leave.
The Cantor Arts Center is open
Wednesday Sunday, 11 a.m. 5
p.m., Thursday until 8 p.m. Free. The
Center is located on the Stanford
campus, off Palm Drive at Museum
Way. Parking is free after 4 p.m.
weekdays and all day on weekends.

MUSEUM GOTTA SEE UM
EZRA JACK KEATS FOUNDATION
The Snowy Day and the Art of Ezra Jack Keats,at the Contemporary Jewish
Museum in San Francisco.
By Judy Richter
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Versatile acting and inventive
staging are the hallmarks of Aurora
Theatre Companys production of
Wilder Times, a collection of four
short plays by Thornton Wilder.
Aurora chose the plays and titled
the show as a tribute to one of the
nations greatest playwrights.
According to artistic director Tom
Ross, the title illustrates that the
concept of time and how we human
beings move through it are major
themes in Wilders work.
The show is divided into two acts,
starting with the rst two plays from
a series, Seven Ages of Man, that
Wilder never nished. These two,
Infancy and Childhood pre-
miered in 1962. The Happy
Journey to Trenton and Camden
and The Long Christmas Dinner,
which comprise the second half,
were written in 1931, but both are
considered Wilders best known
short works.
The cast features six actors
Heather Gordon, Soren Oliver,
Marcia Pizzo, Stacy Ross, Patrick
Russell and Brian Trybom. Focused
direction by Barbara Oliver,
Auroras co-founder and retired
artistic director, lends unity. Before
each act, for example, the actors
sing simple songs like Row, Row,
Row Your Boat as they move set
pieces into place. Eric Sinkkonens
mostly unadorned set, Maggi Yules
color-coordinated costumes and Jim
Caves lighting also unify the show.
In terms of writing, the rst half is
the weaker of the two. Infancy is
set in an urban park where a nanny
(Gordon) and mother (Ross) tend to
infants (Russell and Trybom) in
baby carriages. While the women
talk, the babies alternate between
napping and being frustrated that
they cant understand the adults.
Oliver (son of the director) adds
some comic moments as a cop. Only
good acting and directing keep the
show moving.
The next part, Childhood, is
more interesting. Ross and Trybom
portray parents trying to gure out
what their children do when theyre
not around. The children are played
by Pizzo as the eldest and leader,
Gordon as the middle child and
Russell as the youngest.
In The Happy Journey to Trenton
and Camden, a family is on it way
to visit the eldest daughter, who is
married. Again Pizzo plays that eld-
est daughter, and Gordon and
Russell are the other two kids. Ross
is the mother again, while Oliver is
the father. In a technique developed
more fully in Wilders Our Town,
Trybom is the stage manager.
By far the most satisfying and
intriguing work is the last, The
Long Christmas Dinner, which
depicts a family gathered for
Christmas dinner through several
generations. It starts with Oliver and
Pizzo as a newlywed couple joined
by her mother (Ross), who recalls
Christmases past. From there the
action smoothly segues to births and
deaths as family dynamics change
and one generation gives way to the
next. Its a touching depiction of the
importance of family and family rit-
uals.
Playing roles that vary in age and
personality, the actors are outstand-
ing. Except for the last act, however,
the show doesnt have the heft of
Wilders most successful plays,
Our Town and The Skin of Our
Teeth.
Wilder Times will continue at
the Aurora Theatre, 2081 Addison
St., Berkeley, though Dec. 9. For
tickets and information, call (510)
843-4822 or visit www.aurorathe-
atre.org.

The kids now have the opportunity to make
it, not just taste it, said Sallaberry. They will
see entire process from picking to processing
to how the oil comes out.
Participants will get to experience the taste
of fresh-pressed uorescent green olive oil.
Its a taste unlike any youve ever had, he
said. Its alive. It explodes in your mouth.
Theres that wow factor.
Once the liquid gold is produced, Sacred
Hearts Executive Chef Michael Schley, who
has worked with renowned chefs Michael
Mina and Thomas Keller, will present some
dishes highlighting olive oil.
Dan Flynn, executive director of the UC
Davis Olive Center, is an expert on the quality
of local versus foreign olive oils. The Olive
Center works hard to support increasing pro-
duction of extra virgin olive oil in California
by providing research on the relative quality
of local and imported extra virgin olive oils.
Flynn will host a brief tasting of three to
four different olive oils and discuss their prop-
erties.
Dan will explain what it means when the
olive oil burns in the back of the throat, said
Sallaberry.
Sacred Heart holds a student contest for
designing the bottle label. The nished prod-
uct is sold at school fundraisers for $20 a bot-
tle and is a hit with the school community.
The rst year we made 100 bottles and
they sold out within 15 minutes, he said. Its
just a great holiday gift for somebody.
What strikes Sallaberry most about the har-
vest is the idea of producing your own food
right in the middle of Silicon Valley.
Its a pretty cool deal for a high school in
an urban area, he said.
Dr. Stewart Slafter, who teaches geography
and sustainability at Sacred Heart, is also
looking forward to taking part in a communal
agricultural event. He has found that his stu-
dents enjoy getting out of the classroom and
getting into the schools organic garden and
orchard.
They love it, said Slafter who has been
teaching at Sacred Heart for 13 years. Even
the ones that dont like dirt are willing to give
it a try.
Along with growing organic produce, agri-
culture students raise dairy goats, turkeys,
chickens, rabbits, ducks and pheasants, said
Slafter.
Sundays harvest yield from the 50
Picholine French olive trees is expected to be
between 2 and 4 tons.
OIL
one ofcial said called for a decit down-pay-
ment of unspecied size by years end, to be
followed by comprehensive tax reform and an
overhaul of Medicare and other benet pro-
grams in 2013.
Democrats indicated some spending cuts
would be ne with them. I feel condent that
a solution may be in sight, said House
Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi of
California.
The goal of the high-pressure talks to come
is to produce a multitrillion-dollar decit-
reduction plan that can take the place of the
across-the-board tax increases and spending
cuts that are slated to take effect on Jan. 1.
In remarks while reporters were present,
Obama stressed that time was short as he wel-
comed the leaders to the White House for the
first time since winning re-election this
month. We have urgent business to do, he
said.
If nothing else, the mood seemed good
around the table in the Roosevelt Room of the
White House. Obama noted that it would soon
be Boehners birthday and said he wasnt
going to embarrass him with a cake because
we didnt know how many candles were need-
ed.
Yeah, right, said Boehner, whos turning
63 on Saturday, chuckling as he playfully
poked the president in the elbow.
There was no indication that the meeting
touched on Obamas campaign-long call to
raise tax rates at upper incomes.
In their public comments, neither the presi-
dent nor the lawmakers dwelt on long-stand-
ing differences that doomed previous decit
negotiations. Senate Republican leader Mitch
McConnell came closest, telling reporters that
while Republicans are willing to discuss
increased revenue, most members of his party
believe we are in the dilemma we are in not
because we tax too little but because we spend
too much.
After the meeting, White House Press
Secretary Jay Carney said, Both sides agreed
that while there may be differences in our pre-
ferred approaches, we will continue a con-
structive process to nd a solution and come
to a conclusion as soon as possible.
For all the expressions of optimism, it was
unclear whether the Nov. 6 elections and the
prospect of the so-called scal cliff would
serve as a strong enough catalyst for these
talks to succeed where other recent attempts
have failed.
Obama ran for a new term calling for a bal-
anced approach to deficit reduction that
includes raising taxes on income over
$200,000 a year for individuals and $250,000
for couples. And while the president has stat-
ed a willingness to pull federal savings out of
benefit programs including Medicare and
Medicaid, Democratic leaders have been
reluctant to go along.
Raising taxes has long been anathema to
Republicans, who say governments spending
must be cut to reduce deficits and taxes
reduced to stimulate job creation in an econo-
my where unemployment is 7.9 percent.
Boehner told reporters after Fridays meet-
ing that he had outlined a framework for nego-
tiations that is consistent with the presidents
call for a fair and balanced approach. He did
not provide details, except to say it deals with
reforming our tax code and reforming our
spending, a reference to benet programs
such as Medicare and Medicaid.

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 2012
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Perhaps your greatest
asset is your ability to think win when its important
to do so. Even if you should suffer a temporary
setback, achieving ultimate victory is likely.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- If you sense you
are on to something meaningful, follow your instincts
to their conclusions. Youll fnd that your perceptions
are exceptionally astute.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Conditions are a bit
unusual in that you can learn much from teaching
others. Imparting what you know about an issue
gives you a greater understanding of the subject.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- You can be a good
achiever, provided you dont broadcast your inten-
tions prior to fulflling them. Once you have done
what you wanted, youll fnd no need to brag.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- There will be plenty
of justifcation for hope and optimism regarding
a current project. Youll sense youre in a cycle of
achievement, and youll work to capitalize on it.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Watching how others
do certain jobs will give you a few good ideas for
improving some of your own methods. Dont be
surprised when co-workers, in turn, copy your
resourcefulness.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- By opening up and be-
ing frank while discussing issues that are important
to you, you invite listeners to offer some solid sug-
gestions that could make your life a lot easier.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Making a major change
that youve long thought about but never had the
courage to initiate will prove to be a good move.
Youll be sorry you waited so long.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You have a marvelous
faculty for turning all of your involvements with oth-
ers into congenial, fun affairs. People will fnd it hard
to be cranky with you around.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- This is an excellent day to
take care of some pending problems that youve
been unable to fnalize to your satisfaction. The same
obstacles that once impeded your progress can eas-
ily be overcome now.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Youll enjoy friends drop-
ping in, or gadding around doing a little hobnobbing
yourself. Being with people and going to different
places will soothe your restlessness.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Being somewhat en-
terprising could double your chances for proft. The
secret for doing so is to be motivated enough to get
out of your rut.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Edward Darvell Burns
Case Number 122606
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: Edward Darvell Burns.
A Petition for Probate has been filed by
Raymona Fisher-Burns in the Superior
Court of California, County of San Mateo.
The Petition for Probate requests that
Raymona Fisher-Burns be appointed as
personal representative to administer the
estate of the decedent.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ster the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: November 20, 2012
at 9:00 a.m., Dept. 28, Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo, 400
County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063. If you object to the granting of
the petition, you should appear at the
hearing and state your objections or file

written objections with the court before
the hearing. Your appearance may be in
person or by your attorney. If you are a
creditor or a contingent creditor of the
decedent, you must file your claim with
the court and mail a copy to the personal
representative appointed by the court
within four months from the date of first
issuance of letters as provided in Pro-
bate Code section 9100. The time for fil-
ing claims will not expire before four
months from the hearing date noticed
above. You may examine the file kept by
the court. If you are a person interested
in the estate, you may file with the court
a Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.
