SAN FRANCISCO One of two socalled San Francisco witch killers

prison officials said.
A California parole board found Suzan
Carson, 73, unfit for early release and
scheduled her next parole consideration
for 2030, California Department of
Corrections

Carson and her husband were convicted of killing three in Northern
California in the 1980s during a drugfueled religious quest to rid the world of
witches. They were each sentenced to
75 years to life.
I am so happy we wont have to
worry about her for another 15 years,

Long said that Suzan Carson didnt
attend the hearing. Her attorney Laura
Sheppard said earlier that her client
refused to meet with her and doesnt
seem interested in attempting to seek
parole.
Sheppard didnt return phone calls
after the hearing.
The Carsons qualified for parole
consideration after a federal court concerned with prison overcrowding
ordered hearings for about 1, 400
inmates older than 60 who have
served more than 25 years of their sentences.
Michael Carson canceled his parole
hearing in June, saying he refuses to
renounce his violent religious beliefs.
He is scheduled for parole review in five
years.
I know this is absurd, Michael
Carson wrote prison officials from
Mule Creek State Prison in Ione,
California, on a form formally canceling his hearing. No one is going to
parole me because I will not and have
not renounced my beliefs.

warriors have never expressed

Sandy Berger, ex-Bill Clinton

national security adviser, dies
By Ken Dilanian
WASHINGTON Former national security

adviser Sandy Berger, who helped craft
President Bill Clintons foreign policy and
got in trouble over destroying classified documents, died Wednesday.
He was 70. The cause of death was cancer,
said a statement by his consulting firm, the
Albright Stonebridge Group.
Berger was White House national security
adviser from 1997 to 2001, when the Clinton
administration carried out airstrikes in
Kosovo and against Saddam Husseins forces
in Iraq. Berger, a lawyer, also was deeply
involved in the administrations push for free
trade, and in the response to al-Qaidas bombing of American embassies in East Africa.
He was deputy national security adviser during Clintons first term, and had previously
worked in the State Department in President
Jimmy Carters administration.
Today, his legacy can be seen in a peaceful
Balkans, our strong alliance with Japan, our
deeper relationships with

India
and
China,
President Barack Obama
said in a statement.
Bill Clinton, in a joint
statement
with
Democratic presidential
candidate Hillary Clinton,
called Berger a terrific
Sandy Berger public servant who
embraced our common
humanity and advanced our national interests.
In 2005, Berger pleaded guilty to illegally
removing classified documents from the
National Archives by stuffing some papers in
his pants leg. He cut up some of the documents with scissors, for reasons that remain
unclear. He was sentenced to probation and a
$50,000 fine. He expressed regret for his
actions.
Out of government, he helped found an
international consulting firm that in 2009
merged with one run by former Secretary of
State Madeleine Albright.

House to vote on No
Child Left Behind rewrite
WASHINGTON The House was ready to
vote Wednesday on a long-sought rewrite of
the 2002 No Child Left Behind education law
that would roll back the federal governments
authority to push academic standards and tell
schools how to improve. The legislation, a
compromise reached by House and Senate
negotiators, would continue the No Child
laws requirement for annual reading and math
testing of children in grades 3 through 8 and
once in high school. But it would shift back
to the states the decision-making power over
how to use students performance on the tests
to assess teachers and schools. The measure
also would end federal efforts to tie test scores
to teacher evaluations.
I think that we will have a strong majority
of the majority, and well have a strong
majority of the minority, said Rep. John
Kline, R-Minn., who led the House-Senate
conference committee on the legislation.
The big picture here is that the bill moves
from this massive intrusion of the federal
government, moves back to state and local
control.

Budget talks hit snag

over environmental
issues and refugees
By Andrew Taylor
WASHINGTON Talks on a massive,

governmentwide spending bill hit a snag
Wednesday as Republicans pressed demands
to block new power plant rules, weaken
financial services regulations and make it
more difficult for Syrian and Iraqi refugees to
enter the U.S.
Democrats, whose votes will be needed to
carry the $1.1 trillion measure through the
House, flatly rejected the initial offer from
top Republicans. With little more than a
week to pass a measure to avert a government shutdown, its likely that a short-term
funding bill will be needed to keep the government open past the Dec. 11 deadline.
Republican aides characterized Tuesday
nights offer from House Speaker Paul Ryan
and top Senate Republican Mitch
McConnell as an opening move, but the
White House weighed in sharply, saying it
threatened a government shutdown.
Many lower-tier items in the massive
measure have been worked out, leaving
numerous policy provisions, known as riders as the main unresolved items.
The effort theyre engaged in now is to
lard the bill up with ideological riders,
White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest
told reporters.
The initial GOP offer included provisions
to block new Obama administration rules on
power plant emissions, weaken the 2010
overhaul of financial regulations known as

The thieves, believed to be a man and a

500 block of Middlesex Road, the 1100
block of Kedith Street and the 4200 block
of Skymont Drive. In each case, the vehicles had been left unlocked and the thieves
took items from inside that ranged from

Neither Democrats nor Republicans would
release the proposal, but a memorandum
from House Democratic staff characterized it
in broad strokes, citing poison pill riders
on the environment, labor regulations,
financial regulation and refugees. The proposal would not unravel President Barack
Obamas signature health care law, attempt
to take away federal funding from Planned
Parenthood or undo executive action on
immigration.
Democrats said they would prepare a
counter-offer.
The ill-will followed a story in Politico
that quoted anonymous Republicans characterizing Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, DCalif., as an obstacle to the talks and blaming her for slow progress on dozens of unresolved issues.

The suspects are an unknown race adult
male and unknown race female, that may
be associated with an unknown color

shooting since the attack at a school in
Newtown, Connecticut, three years ago that
left 26 children and adults dead.
Police shed no light on the motive for the
massacre. David Bowdich, assistant director
of the FBIs Los Angeles office, said the
bureau is looking at several possibilities,
including workplace violence and terrorism. He did not elaborate.
Late Wednesday, a law enforcement official who was briefed on the case identified
one of the suspects as Syed Farook. The
official was not authorized to speak to the
media about the ongoing investigation and
spoke to the Associated Press on condition
of anonymity.
The attackers invaded the Inland Regional
Center and began shooting around 11 a.m.
Wednesday. They opened fire in a conference area that the San Bernardino County
Department of Public Health had rented out
for an employee banquet, said Marybeth

California city of 214,000 people about 60

miles east of Los Angeles.
As gunfire echoed through the large threebuilding complex, several people locked
themselves in their offices, desperately
waiting to be rescued by police. Some
texted or telephoned their loved ones and
whispered to them what was going on.
People shot. In the office waiting for
cops. Pray for us. I am locked in an office,
Terry Petits daughter texted him.
Petit, choking back tears as he read the
text for reporters at the scene, said his
daughter works at the center, where social
workers find jobs, housing and transportation and provide other services to people
with disabilities such as autism, cerebral
palsy and epilepsy.
Ten of the wounded were hospitalized in
critical condition, and three were in serious
condition, Fire Chief Tom Hannemann said.
That the violence happened at a place dedicated to helping people with developmental disabilities even if they were not targeted made it even harder for some to
comprehend.
These are all disabled kids, very disabled, said Sherry Esquerra, who was
searching for her daughter and son-in-law,
both of whom work at the center. She gets
all the services she possibly could for these
kids. So I just dont understand why somebody would come in and start shooting.
FBI agents and other law enforcement
authorities converged on the center and
searched room to room for the attackers.
Triage units were set up outside, and people
were wheeled away on stretchers. Others
were marched from the building with their
hands up so that police could search them
and make sure the attackers werent trying
to slip out.
They had indeed escaped. One witness,

Glenn Willwerth, who runs a business
across the street, said he heard 10 to 15
shots and then saw an SUV with blacked-out
windows pull out very calmly, very slowly and drive off.
As the manhunt dragged on, stores, office
buildings and schools were locked down in
the city, and roads were blocked off.
About four hours later, with police looking for a dark SUV, officers staking out a
home in the nearby city of Redlands saw a
vehicle matching that description leave.
They pursued the vehicle, the SUV crashed,
and a gunbattle broke out around 3 p.m.,
authorities said. One officer suffered a minor
injury.
The aftermath of the shootout was captured live by television news helicopters.
Each of the dead had a rifle and handgun
and was wearing tactical clothing, including vests stuffed with ammunition magazines, said Agent Meredith Davis of the
Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and
Explosives. An explosive device was found
at the social service center, and during the
car chase, the couple hurled a fake bomb
a metal pipe stuffed with cloth out of the
SUV, she said.
President Barack Obama was briefed on
the attack by his homeland security adviser.
He said it was too early to know the shooters motives but urged the country to take
steps to reduce mass shootings, including
stricter gun laws and stronger background
checks.
The one thing we do know is that we
have a pattern now of mass shootings in
this country that has no parallel anywhere
else in the world, and theres some steps we
could take, not to eliminate every one of
these mass shootings, but to improve the
odds that they dont happen as frequently,

Obama told CBS.
The shooting sounded like an organized
plot, and preliminary information seems
to indicate that this is personal, and there
seems to suggest some element of revenge
and retaliation, said Erroll G. Southers,
director of Homegrown Violent Extremism
Studies at the University of Southern
California and a former FBI agent.
What it says to me, its someone whos
familiar with the facility, its someone who
knew exactly what room they were going to
go to. They knew exactly which way they
needed to escape, Southers said. Theyve
done their homework.
The social services center has two large
buildings that require a badge to get in, said
Sheela Stark, an Inland Regional Center
board member. However, the conference
room where many public events take place
including the banquet Wednesday is
usually left open when visitors are expected.
Marcos Aguileras wife was in the building when the gunfire erupted. He said a
shooter entered the building next to his
wifes office and opened fire.
They locked themselves in her office.
They seen bodies on the floor, Aguilera
told KABC-TV, adding that his wife was able
to get out of the building unharmed.
Olivia Navarro said her daughter, Jamile
Navarro, a case manager at the social service center, called her and whispered that she
was taking cover in a locked room.
Of course youre going to be quiet, so we
hung up, she said. I said, All right, Ill be
there, turn off the lights, dont make a
sound. And that was it.
The daughter made it safely out of the
building.
Hundreds of law enforcement officers and

SWAT teams swarmed the area around the
two office buildings for hours and it took
several hours before they provided a briefing with casualty counts.
Those inside the building who reached
family members described a tense situation,
hiding behind locked doors and turning off
lights so they wouldnt be found.
She was whispering, said Olivia
Navarro, whose daughter, Jamile Navarro is
a case manager at the center. She was whispering and she said they were in a room,
locked up because there were shooters.

Navarros voice quivered as she described
how her daughter told her she was going to
turn off the lights and hang up in case the
shooters arrived.
I said, All right, Ill be there, turn off
the lights, dont make a sound. And that
was it.
Her daughter eventually made it out safely.
Marissa Gutierrez said she began crying
when she got a text message from her aunt,
Regina Kuruppu, at 11:10 a.m. saying there
was a shooting at work and she was scared.

Gutierrez tried calling for more than an
hour, but couldnt reach her as she hid in a
closet. Police eventually found her there
and she got out safely.
Sheela Stark, a board member at the center, was trying to reach more than a dozen
colleagues and workers, but had only heard
back from one early in the day.
She was trying to stay positive by watching the news on TV and looking for familiar faces. By late afternoon she had managed to reach most everyone.

2014 U.S. health spending grew

at fastest rate of Obama years
By Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar
Pleasing conservatives, GOP leaders began rolling out a measure that would all but kill the 2010
Affordable Care Act, effectively ending its requirements that individuals obtain health insurance
and that large companies offer coverage to workers by erasing the financial penalties enforcing
those obligations.
Senate GOP health law repeal

delivers wins to partys wings
By Alan Fram
WASHINGTON Republicans ignored a

White House promise of a veto Wednesday
and pushed toward Senate passage of legislation demolishing President Barack
Obamas health care overhaul and blocking
Planned Parenthoods federal funds.
After weeks of strategizing, GOP leaders
began rolling out a measure they said would
attract the votes needed for approval by
weeks end. To achieve that, they balanced
victories for some of the most conservative
GOP senators with concessions for more
moderate Republicans facing competitive
2016 re-elections.
The White House accused Republicans of
refighting old political battles, a reference to unanimous GOP opposition to the
measure ever since Obama began pushing it
through Congress and dozens of votes lawmakers have staged to undo the statute.
Repeal would roll back coverage gains
and would cost millions of hard-working
families the security of affordable health
coverage they deserve, the White House
wrote in its letter pledging a veto.
Senate
Majority
Leader
Mitch
McConnell, R-Ky., tauntingly suggested
that Democrats reconsider their defense of
the health care law.
This is their chance, and President
Obamas chance, to begin to make amends
for the pain and hurt theyve caused by
the statute, which Republicans blame for
rising health care costs.

On Wednesday, a Department of Health
and Human Services report said that health
care spending grew last year at 5.3 percent,
in part because over his laws coverage
expansion and the steepest climb since
Obama took office.
The GOP said a veto would only help its
presidential and congressional candidates
by underscoring that Republican control of
the White House and Congress could spell
the end of the law they derisively label
Obamacare and of Planned Parenthoods
federal dollars.
Pleasing conservatives, the measure
would all but kill the 2010 Affordable Care
Act, effectively ending its requirements that
individuals obtain health insurance and that
large companies offer coverage to workers
by erasing the financial penalties enforcing
those obligations.
The bill would repeal the laws expanded
Medicaid coverage for lower-income people
and its federal subsidies for those buying
policies in insurance marketplaces. It would
also annul a slew of tax increases the law
imposed to cover its costs, including levies
on medical devices, costly insurance policies, investment income of higher-earning
people and indoor tanning salons, according to documents obtained by the
Associated Press.
For GOP senators facing tough re-election
fights, the measure offers some relief: a twoyear delay in its repeal of the exchange subsidies and the Medicaid expansion.
WASHINGTON U.S. health care spending last year grew at the fastest pace since
President Barack Obama took office, driven
by expanded coverage under his namesake
law and by zooming prescription drug costs,
the government said Wednesday.
After five years of historically low growth,
national health expenditures increased by
5.3 percent in 2014, reaching $3 trillion, or
$9,523 for every man, woman and child. That
followed a 2.9 percent increase for 2013.
Such seemingly small percentage shifts resonate when the total is $3 trillion.
The report by nonpartisan experts at the
Department of Health and Human Services
may signal the end of an unusually long lull
in health care inflation that has benefited the
Obama administration. While the presidents
health care law has increased coverage, the
cost problem doesnt appear solved. Even
now, the Republican-led Congress is preparing to send a repeal bill to his desk.
From the political point of view, its
absolutely significant, said Robert

Blendon, who follows public opinion on
health care at the Harvard T.H. Chan School
of Public Health. Critics will point to the
report as authoritative evidence the health
law is starting to raise costs.
Underscoring concerns about affordability,
the report also found that health care spending grew faster than the economy as a whole,
reaching 17.5 percent of GDP.
The return to faster growth and an
increased share of GDP in 2014 was largely
influenced by the coverage expansions of the
Affordable Care Act, said the report, referring to Obamas law. It made no predictions,
saying future trends depend on how the health
care industry adjusts to continuing change
and how the economy fares.
Political appointees at HHS responded
quickly, saying that spending is still not
growing as fast as in the years before
Obamas law, which passed in 2010.
Health care spending growth stayed well
below the trend seen prior to the Affordable
Care Act, Richard Frank, a top economic
adviser, said in a statement.

Impeachment proceedings
opened against Brazils Rousseff
RIO DE JANEIRO Impeachment proceedings were
opened Wednesday against Brazilian President Dilma
Rousseff by the speaker of the lower
house of Congress, a sworn enemy of the
beleaguered leader.
A special commission in which all
political parties are represented must
now weigh the decision of speaker
Eduardo Cunha, who himself is facing
corruption charges before the Supreme
Court, to open the proceedings against
Dilma Rousseff Brazils president based on accusations
her government broke fiscal responsibility laws. Rousseff sharply disputes the accusations.
While impeachment is expected to get by the commission, most political analysts say its unlikely to get the
two-thirds vote of the lower house that would remove her
from office temporarily. But if it does pass, the case would
then go to the Senate to decide whether she should be
removed permanently.
The chances of President Rousseff being impeached
arent as big as politicians say now, despite this bold move
by Cunha, said Luciano Dias, a political consultant at the
Brasilia-based Analise Politica firm. They are not
insignificant, but they are not huge. There needs to be more
than two-thirds of more than 500 deputies voting against
her, and that number is very hard to reach.
U.N. believes Iran worked

on developing nuclear weapons
VIENNA Iran worked in the past on nuclear weapons
but its activities didnt go past planning such a program and
testing of basic components, the U.N. atomic agency said
Wednesday, in what it described as a final report wrapping
up nearly a decade of probing the suspicions.
The International Atomic Energy Agencys report was
significant in coming down on the side of allegations by
the U.S. and other nations critical of Irans nuclear program
that Tehran engaged in trying to make such arms. Still, the
agency said its findings were an assessment, suggesting
that it couldnt deliver an unequivocal ruling on whether the
suspicions were valid.
The report also suggested that not all information it was
interested in was made available by Tehran, making its conclusions less black and white than it would have been had it
received full cooperation.
The agency went public with its suspicions four years
ago, detailing a list of alleged activities based on credible
evidence that Tehran did work relevant to the development
of a nuclear explosive device.
Wednesdays evaluation says most coordinated work on
developing such arms was done before 2003, with some
activities continuing up to 2009.

Russias defense ministry said on Wednesday it had proof that Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan and his family were benefiting

Russia: Turkish president

benefits from IS oil trade

MOSCOW Sharply raising the

stakes in Moscows spat with Ankara,
Russias top military brass on
Wednesday accused Turkish President
Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his family of
personally profiting from oil trade with
Islamic State militants.
The bluntly-worded accusations follow Turkeys downing of a Russian warplane at the Syrian border last week, the
first time a NATO member shot down a
Russian aircraft in more than half a century. The fierce personal attack on
Erdogan reflects the Kremlins anger and
signals that Russia-Turkey tensions
will likely continue to escalate.
The Russian Defense Ministry invited
dozens of foreign military attaches and
hundreds of journalists to produce what
they said were satellite and aerial images
of thousands of oil trucks streaming

from the IS-controlled deposits in Syria
and Iraq into Turkish sea ports and
refineries.
The main customer for this oil stolen
from Syria and Iraq is Turkey, said
Deputy Defense Minister Anatoly
Antonov. The top political leadership
of the country, President Erdogan and
his family, is involved in this criminal
business.
The Turkish leader has denied Russian
President Vladimir Putins earlier claims
of Turkeys involvement in oil trade
with the IS, and has pledged to step
down if Moscow proves its accusations.
No one has the right to make such a
slander as to suggest that Turkey buys
Daeshs oil. Turkey has not lost its
moral values as to buy oil from a terror
organization, Erdogan said in
Wednesdays
speech
at
Qatar
University, using the Arabic acronym
for the Islamic State group, shortly
after the Russian Defense Ministry

made the claims. Those who make
such slanderous claims are obliged to
prove them. If they do I would not
remain on the presidential seat for one
minute. But those who make the claim
must also give up their seat if they cant
prove it.
The Russian planes downing has
badly strained the relationship between
the two nations that had earlier developed close economic ties. Russia has
responded by deploying long-range air
defense missiles at its air base in Syria
and slamming Turkey with an array of
economic sanctions.
Erdogan warned Wednesday that if
Russias disproportionate reactions
continue, we will be forced to take our
own measures.
Antonov, meanwhile, said that IS militants make $2 billion a year from the
illegal oil trade, and he squarely put the
personal blame on Erdogan.

Britain launches airstrikes on IS in Syria

By Menelaos Hajicostis and Jill Lawless
AKROTIRI, Cyprus British warplanes

carried out airstrikes in Syria early
Thursday, hours after Parliament voted to
authorize air attacks against Islamic State
group targets there.
Four Royal Air Force Tornados took off
from a British air base in Akrotiri, Cyprus,
shortly after the 397-223 vote by lawmakers in the House of Commons.
A Ministry of Defense spokesman told
the AP the planes had conducted strikes in
Syria, and details about their targets would
be provided later Thursday.
He spoke on condition of anonymity in
line with British policy for government
spokespeople.
The RAF has been launching strikes
against IS targets in Iraq since 2014. The
decision to expand the campaign to Syria
came after an emotional 10 1/2-hour debate
in which Prime Minister David Cameron
said that Britain must strike the militants in
their heartland and not sit back and wait for
them to attack us.
Opponents argued that Britains entry
into Syrias crowded airspace would make
little difference, and said Camerons military plan was based on wishful thinking
that overlooked the messy reality of the
Syrian civil war.
Cameron has long wanted to target IS in
Syria, but had been unsure of getting majority support in the House of Commons until
now. He suffered an embarrassing defeat in
2013 when lawmakers rejected a motion
backing attacks on the forces of Syrian
President Bashar Assad.
The mood has changed following the
Nov. 13 Paris attacks, claimed by IS, that
killed 130 people. Both France and the U.S.
have urged Britain to join their air campaign in Syria, and Cameron said Britain

in London, Britain.
should not let its allies down.
He said Britain was already a top target for
IS attacks, and airstrikes would reduce the
groups ability to plan more Paris-style carnage.
Do we work with our allies to degrade and
destroy this threat and do we go after these
terrorists in their heartlands, from where
they are plotting to kill British people? he
said. Or do we sit back and wait for them to
attack us?
He said that attacking IS was not antiMuslim but a defense of Islam against
women-raping,
Muslim-murdering,
medieval monsters.
Cameron was backed by most members of
his governing Conservative Party which
holds 330 of the 650 Commons seats as
well as members of the smaller Liberal

Democrat party and others.
Labour, the main opposition, was divided. Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn who
represents the left wing of the party
spoke against what he called a reckless and
half-baked intervention. But more than 60
Labour lawmakers, including senior party
figures, voted in support of airstrikes, a
move likely to make fissures between the
right and the left of the party even worse.
Labour foreign affairs spokesman Hilary
Benn said Britain could not walk by on the
other side of the road when international
allies were asking for help against IS fascists.
Britain already conducts airstrikes
against IS targets in Iraq, and in August
launched a drone strike that killed two

British IS militants in Syria.
British officials say Royal Air Force
Typhoon and Tornado fighter jets, armed
with Brimstone missiles capable of hitting
moving targets, would bring the campaign
highly accurate firepower and help minimize civilian casualties.
President Barack Obama welcomed the
British vote to join the air campaign in
Syria, saying the Islamic State group is a
global threat that must be defeated by a
global response.
Critics claim British airstrikes will make
little practical difference, and that ground
forces will be needed to root out IS. Britain
has ruled out sending troops, and critics of
the government have responded with skepticism to Camerons claim that there are
70, 000 moderate Syrian rebels on the
ground.
Cameron stood by that claim Wednesday,
though he conceded, Im not saying that
the 70,000 are our ideal partners.
Karin von Hippel, who was chief of staff
to U.S. Gen. John Allen when he was the
United States anti-ISIS envoy, said force
alone would not defeat the militants but
neither would diplomacy by itself.
The Brits have expertise and capabilities, she said. Their involvement brings
moral authority and legitimacy to the
fight.
The British vote came as U.S. Secretary of
State John Kerry said NATO members were
ready to step up military efforts against the
Islamic State group and held out hope of
improved cooperation between the West and
Russia to end Syrias four-year civil war.
A day after U.S. Defense Secretary Ash
Carter said the United States would deploy a
new special operations force to Iraq to step
up the fight against the militants, Kerry
said other countries could provide assistance that did not involve combat.

Oil and gas stocks fell far more than
the rest of the market. Energy stocks in
the S&P 500 sank 3.1 percent compared
with a 1.1 percent decline in the broader market.
The price of oil was lower all day, and
the losses accelerated in the afternoon
after the Energy Department reported
that U.S. crude inventories rose by 1.2
million barrels last week, while analysts had expected a decline.
Benchmark U.S. crude dropped

$1.91, or 4.6 percent, to $39.94 a barrel on the New York Mercantile
Exchange. Brent crude, which is used to
price international oils, fell $1.95, or
4.4 percent, to $42.49 a barrel in
London.
Exxon Mobil fell $2.34, or 3 percent, to $79.55, Chevron lost $2.33,
or 2.5 percent, to $90.25 and drilling
rig operator Transocean fell 37 cents,
or 2.6 percent, to $13.83.
In other trading, Yahoo jumped
$1.94, or 6 percent, to $35.65 on
reports that the company was considering selling its core Internet businesses
in order to avoid a big tax bill on the
eventual sale of its stake in Chinese ecommerce giant Alibaba. Yahoo has
struggled for years to re-energize its
business model.
Outside the drop in oil prices, and its
impact on energy companies, investors
remain focused on what the worlds central banks plan to do at their upcoming
policy meetings.
The consensus among investors is
that the Fed will raise rates at its
December 15-16 meeting. That thesis
was reinforced Wednesday, when Fed
Chair Janet Yellen indicated that the
U.S. economy is on track for an interest
rate hike this month, though she was
careful to point out that the Fed will
need to review any upcoming data
before making a final decision.

Government bond prices fell after
Yellens comments. The yield on the
10-year Treasury note rose to 2.18 percent from 2.15 percent late Tuesday.
The data Yellen is referring to
includes the November jobs report,
which comes out Friday. Economists
forecast that U.S. employers created
200,000 jobs last month and the unemployment rate remained steady at 5 percent.
Its becoming more and more likely
that the Fed is going to rate rates, said
Kristina Hooper, Head of U.S.
Investment Strategies at Allianz Global
Investors.
Unless the November employment
figures are extraordinarily weak,
investors believe the Fed will raise
interest rates this month, from record
low levels, for the first time since the
financial crisis. Some preliminary jobs
data out Wednesday supported the prediction that the U.S. jobs market continued to improve last month. The payroll processor ADP said the private sector created 217,000 jobs in November.
In Europe, investors expect the
European Central Bank will move in the
opposite direction and expand its stimulus program when policymakers meet
on Thursday, either by expanding its
bond purchases or by cutting interest
rates further.
Yellen confident in economy ahead of expected rate hike

By Martin Crutsinger
WASHINGTON Federal Reserve Chair

Janet Yellen on Wednesday indicated that the
U.S. economy is on track for an interest rate
hike this month, but she said the Fed will
need to review incoming data before making
a final decision.
Yellen gave an upbeat assessment of the
economys progress since the Feds last
meeting in October, describing it as in line
with its expectations for the labor market
and inflation.
But she added that policymakers need to be
cautious in deciding when to start raising
rates given that the Fed doesnt have much
room to cut them if the economy begins to
falter.
Yellens comments in a
speech to the Economic
Club of Washington
came two weeks before
the Feds final meeting of
the year on Dec. 15-16.
The central bank is widely expected to raise interest rates for the first time
Janet Yellen in nearly a decade. The
Feds benchmark rate has
been at a record low near zero for the past
seven years.
Paul Ashworth, chief U.S. economist at
Capital Economics, said Yellen was quite
explicit in making the case for a December
rate hike.
In her speech, Yellen said that the economy has recovered substantially since the
Great Recession of 2007-2009, and she

expressed confidence that it will continue
growing at a pace strong enough in coming
months to further boost the labor market.
When the (Feds policy committee)
begins to normalize the stance of policy,
doing so will be a testament ... to how far our
economy has come in recovering from the
effects of the financial crisis and the Great
Recession, Yellen said.
Yellen stressed that the pace of future rate
hikes was more important than the timing of
the first move, which would still leave rates
at historically low levels. She reiterated that
the pace of subsequent increases was likely
to be gradual, meaning that rates for consumer and business borrowers will remain
favorable for a while.
In response to a question, Yellen rejected a
Record Cyber Monday spending tops $3 billion

By Mae Anderson
NEW YORK Shoppers spent more than

$3 billion online this Cyber Monday,
making it the biggest online shopping day
ever.
Research firm comScore said shopping by
phone, laptop or tablet jumped 21 percent to
$3.11 billion Monday, fueled by a 53 percent
surge in spending via mobile devices.
The 10-year-old shopping holiday has lost
some of its luster as retailers start sales even
earlier than the traditional Thanksgiving and
Black Friday sprees. Yet Cyber Monday
has become engrained in the minds of
enough shoppers and it endures as the top

online spending day of the year.
Despite some talk of Cyber Monday
declining in importance, the days historical
highs and continued strong growth rates confirm it is still a hugely important shopping
event, said comScore chairman emeritus
Gian Fulgoni.
Its the sixth year in a row that Cyber
Monday has been top online sales day on
record. Mobile spending, or sales via smartphones and tablets, jumped 53 percent to
$838 million, making up 27 percent of total
online spending. Top online shopping destinations included Amazon, Walmart, eBay,
Target and Best Buy.
The spending spree comes even as several

retailers had problems during Cyber Monday.
Amazon said some orders in the U.S. and
Canada had incorrectly applied shipping
charges, but it discovered the error and
refunded the charges. Targets Web site was
briefly offline due to high traffic.
ComScore expects online sales to rise 14
percent to $70.06 billion during the
November and December shopping period,
slowing slightly from last years 15 percent
rise. Online sales make up 10 percent of
overall retail sales, but that increases to 15
percent during the holidays as online shoppers snap up Black Friday and Cyber Monday
deals, according to research firm Forrester.
Yahoo mulls shareholder demand to sell Internet business

By Michael Liedtke
SAN FRANCISCO Yahoos board is

considering an activist shareholders
demand to sell the Internet services the
company is best known for, a maneuver
that might help the company dodge a tax
bill of more than $10 billion looming
over its holdings in Chinas Alibaba
Group.
The boardroom intrigue revolves around
a recent proposal from Starboard Value, a
New York hedge fund that been pressuring
Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer to take dramatic steps to boost the companys stock.
Starboards latest idea is for Yahoo to
sell its websites, mobile applications, ad
services and data analytics so it can abandon a plan to spin off its 15 percent stake
in Alibaba, a thriving e-commerce company. The spinoff is designed to shelter
Yahoo from capital-gains taxes on its
investment, but its unclear if the strategy
willl work. Earlier this year, the Internal
Revenue Service declined to guarantee that
it would qualify for a tax exemption.
The Wall Street Journal first reported the
board will consider selling Yahoos

Internet business, citing people familiar
with the situation. The drama began
unfolding Wednesday during a meeting
that Yahoos board of directors holds in
early December each year.
Yahoo Inc. declined to comment on the
boards agenda. The companys advisers,
though, have expressed confidence that
taxes wont be due in the spinoff, emboldening Mayer and the rest of the board to
continue pursuing a breakup that is supposed to be completed later this month or
in January.
suggestion that the Fed might follow the

pattern set under former-Chairman Alan
Greenspan. During the last round of rate
hikes, the Fed boosted rates by regular quarter-point moves at 17 meetings from June
2004 to June 2006.
Its very important for me to emphasize
that there is no such plan to proceed in such
a mechanical or calendar-based way, Yellen
said. The actual path will depend entirely on
how incoming data affect our outlook.
When the Fed votes, Yellen said she will
not be concerned if the 10 voting members
of the Feds policy committee are not unanimous. While the panel does try to find common ground, she welcomes different views
and wants to guard against the danger of
group think which could lead to bad decisions.

Computer problem delays
disability payments to nearly 19,000
WASHINGTON A computer problem is
delaying disability payments to nearly
19,000 people who receive Supplemental
Security Income.
Payments to more than 8.3 million people are usually made on the first of the
month, which was Tuesday. But the Social
Security Administration says a coding
problem with an electronic payment file is
delaying payments for a few days to 18,770
people.
The agency says most of the people live
in the West and southeastern United States.
Social Security says the 17,900 people
who receive payments through direct
deposit will get those payments on
Thursday. The agency says the 870 people
who get paper checks will get those checks
next week.
Social Security is aware that this delay
will cause hardships for some people and
has procedures in place to provide help,
the agency said in a statement. People
who are in need of an immediate payment of
their SSI benefits should contact their local
Social Security office.

Curry goes for 40 in Warriors 20th straight win

By Steve Reed
CHARLOTTE, N.C. Charlotte Hornets

broadcaster Dell Curry told his son before
Wednesday nights game, do not ruin my
night.
He didnt make any guarantees, Curry
said with a smile.
Actually, Stephen Curry ignored his
father altogether.
The reigning MVP scored 40 points in
three quarters and the Golden State Warriors

easily defeated the Hornets 116-99 to
extend the best start in NBA history to 200.
On a night when the Hornets honored Dell
Curry, the franchises career scoring leader,
with a key to Buzz City, it was his oldest
son who stole the spotlight by hitting 14
of 18 shots from the field and going 8 for 11
from 3-point range.
Stephen Curry, who grew up in Charlotte
and starred at nearby Davidson College,
scored 28 points in the pivotal third quarter,

including his teams final 24. He hit 10 of
11 shots from the field, including all five 3s
many from well beyond the arc and in the
face of a defender to help the Warriors
build a 21-point cushion.
He sat out the entire fourth quarter due to
the big lead and didnt get a shot to break
his career high of 54.
It was a cool atmosphere to play in,
especially on top of my dads ceremony,
Stephen Curry said. It was nice to be out
there at halftime and hear his speech and

stand with my mom, my sister, my aunts and
my grandma. It was a good night. I cant ask
for more. To play like I did and get the win
was special.

Rough start for Sequoia Nunn is
drawing
national
attention
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The Nick McCullar Era of Sequoia girls

basketball got off to inauspicious start in
the rst round of the Mills Kelly Shea Gallo
Tournament Wednesday.
The Cherokees went scoreless in the rst
quarter and scored only six rst-half points
as they were buried by Monte Vista
Christian 53-25.
Its hard to fault McCullar, however. Not
only do the Cherokees have little more than
a month of practice under their belt after
McCuller was hired in late October, but they
were facing a Mustangs squad that was in the
Central Coast Section Division IV seminals last season.
First and foremost, that team (MVC) is
good, McCullar said. You can tell they
were sharp.
McCullar is so new to the team that he had
to keep checking his scorebook for names.
But after a rough rst quarter, in which they
were outscored 15-0, the Cherokees actually
played the Mustangs fairly evenly the rest
of the way. In the second half, MVC
outscored Sequoia by only eight points.
And it wasnt like the Mustangs were
playing their bench in the second half.
Many of their starters played most of the
second half.
The one thing Sequoia did do well was
play hard and not give up the entire game
and it rebounded well, pulling down 37
boards to 30 for MVC.
In the second half, I was really pleased
with our effort, McCullar said. Makenna
Roberts didnt score and played the hardest
on the team.
McCullar said some of the players on his
team told him they were intimidated by the
Mustangs early on, but that didnt have any
effect on the Cherokees shooting, they
were simply missing, going 0 for 9 from the
eld in the opening eight minutes.
The Mustangs, on the other hand, didnt
seem to miss as they connected on 6 of 10
attempts in the rst quarter and 2 for 5 from
the free-throw line.
Sequoia didnt get on the scoreboard until

Journeyman Draughn finally gets shot with 49ers

By Janie McCauley
SANTA CLARA In a year of sweeping

changes for the San Francisco 49ers, few
could have envisioned journeyman running
back Shaun Draughn leading the way in the
ground game down the stretch this season.
Draughn can barely believe it.
Now with his eighth organization in five
years, he is suddenly a featured back, called
upon to fill a void in San Franciscos injuryriddled backfield.
Starter Carlos Hyde

missed his fourth straight
game last week against
first-place Arizona with a
stress fracture in his left
foot, while Reggie Bush
was already lost for the
season after he slipped on
the concrete at St. Louis
Shaun Draughn on Nov. 1 and required
knee surgery.
San Francisco signed Draughn the next
day, Nov. 2, and he has now played in games
for six teams since joining Washington as an

undrafted free agent in late July 2011, a few
days after the lockout lifted.
Im grateful for the opportunity that Im
getting, Draughn said.
He played in five games for Cleveland this
year before being let go Oct. 20. In 2014, he
moved around even more: Two games with
Chicago, four for San Diego and four with the
Browns.
Draughn has also been with Kansas City,
Baltimore and Indianapolis.
After all of those switches, hes a featured
back at last.
Im just humbled, Draughn said. I just
want to go out there and show my teammates,
show the fans and show the organization that
Im here to work and do whatever it takes to
win. Im here for the guys and Im going to
give it my all when I go out there. Regardless
of whether Im starting or not, thats just the

As deal Pomeranz to Padres for Alonso, Rzpczynski

By Bernie Wilson
SAN DIEGO The San Diego Padres

wanted Drew Pomeranz and pushed Oakland
for the versatile left-hander, while the
Athletics filled a big need at first base by
acquiring Yonder Alonso.
San Diego got Pomeranz, minor leaguer
lefty Jose Torres and either a player to be
named or cash from Oakland on Wednesday
for Alonso and reliever Marc Rzepczynski.
Pomeranz can either start or come out of
the bullpen. He had surgery on his pitching
shoulder in October and is expected to be
ready by spring training. He was 5-6 with
three saves and a 3.66 ERA in a career-high
53 appearances with nine starts spanning 86
innings for the As in 2015.
Padres general manager A.J. Preller said
Pomeranz gives us option for either starting or relieving. He said hell discuss
Pomeranzs role with pitching coach Darren
Balsley and manager Andy Green and make a
call as we get closer to spring.

Pomeranz went 10-10 with a 3.08 ERA in
73 games, including 19 starts, in two seasons with the As after he was acquired from
Colorado following the 2013 season.
It was a busy day for both California clubs,
with San Diego naming Mark McGwire
bench coach and the As agreeing on a $2
million, one-year contract with lefty Felix
Doubront a deal that includes $500,000
in guaranteed money and avoids salary arbitration.
The As had been investigating their
options at first base through the trade market and free agency.
Yonder was a guy we asked San Diego
about right after the season. One of, if not
the best, defensive first basemen in the
game, general manager David Forst said.
Obviously the knock on him is he doesnt
profile the power of a first baseman but still
a very productive offensive player, high
contact rate, low walk to strikeout rate, a
guy whos a professional hitter. Excited to
have him under control

for a couple years.
Torres pitched for the
As Single-A affiliates at
Beloit and Stockton last
year and combined for a 45 record, eight saves and a
2.56 ERA in 47 relief
appearances. He struck
Yonder Alonso out 84 batters and surrendered just four home runs
in 77.1 innings while holding the opposition to a .203 batting average. The 22-yearold left-hander was originally signed by the
As in July 2010 as a non-drafted free agent
out of Venezuela and pitched exclusively in
relief for the first time in 2015.
The acquisition of Rzepczynski fills a
need for the As in their bullpen. He
began the 2015 season with Cleveland
and was 2-3 with a 4. 43 ERA in 45 games
when he was traded to San Diego on July
31. He compiled a 7. 36 ERA in 27 games
with the Padres and combined for a 5. 66
ERA in 72 games overall.

Adding Marc certainly softens the blow
of losing Drew in the bullpen, Forst said.
Alonsos four seasons in San Diego were
mostly marked by injuries. He played in 155
games in 2012 after being obtained from
Cincinnati in a five-player deal, but has
been limited to 97, 84 and 103 games due to
various injuries.
Alonso batted.282 with five home runs
and 31 RBIs in 2015. He was on the disabled
list from May 9-June 1 with a bone bruise in
his right shoulder and Sept. 14 through the
end of the season with a lower back strain.
Alonso took over at first base for the
Padres in 2012 after they traded Anthony
Rizzo to the Chicago Cubs. Rizzo has gone
on to become a two-time All-Star.
For Alonso, the vote of confidence from
Oakland is appreciated.
It means a lot, I talked to (manager) Bob
Melvin earlier today. Im thrilled to have a
group of guys and organization who think
highly of my defensive skills, he said.
Orioles acquire Trumbo; Boston signs Chris Young

By Ronald Blum
NEW YORK Baltimore added a bat as

protection in case it loses Chris Davis,
acquiring power-hitting Mark Trumbo and
left-hander C.J. Riefenhausen from Seattle
on Wednesday for catcher Steve Clevenger.
Trumbo is an outfielder, first baseman and
possible designated hitter. He batted .262
with 22 homers and 64 RBIs in 142 games
this year with Arizona and the Mariners,
who wanted to shed his expected salary of
about $9 million.
The addition of a proven major league
hitter like Mark Trumbo today lengthens our
lineup, Orioles executive vice president of
baseball operations Dan Duquette said.
Baltimore will be the 29-year-old
Trumbos fourth team since 2013, when current Seattle GM Jerry Dipoto traded him
from the Los Angeles Angels to the
Diamondbacks. Trumbo averaged more than
30 home runs and 90 RBIs from 2011-13
with the Angels.
I was aware that I was in the position that
this might well happen, Trumbo said.
There were a few teams that were mentioned

before, but to be honest, the Orioles werent

one that I had heard, at all.
Trumbo can become a free agent after next
season. Davis, who led the major leagues
with 47 homers this year, became a free
agent last month.
Ahead of its $217 million, seven-year
contract with left-hander David Price, a deal
likely to be completed Friday, Boston finalized a $13 million, two-year agreement with
right-handed-hitting outfielder Chris
Young.
I feel good about the roster as it is. I
think weve been able to address really our
biggest needs, new Red Sox president of
baseball operations Dave Dombrowski
said. I think our major moves are done. But
when you go into the winter meetings, you
never know what happens.
Young, 32, had been with the New York
Yankees since August 2014, batting .252
with 14 homers and 42 RBIs in 318 at-bats
this year. He hit .327 against left-handers
this season; with its 37-foot-high Green
Monster just 310 feet from the plate in left
field, Fenway Park seems ideal for his
swing.

ball. I think that Fenway can be advantageous to that, Young said. Hopefully, my
just-misses, I can get rewarded for that.
Seattle agreed to a one-year contract with
outfielder Nori Aoki, according to two people with knowledge of the deal who spoke
on condition of anonymity because it has
not been finalized. Aoki was limited to 93
games with San Francisco this year due to a
broken right leg and a severe concussion in
the second half of the season.
Seattle also agreed to a $750,000 deal
with reliever Justin De Fratus, who became a
free agent after the season rather than accept
an outright assignment to the minors by the
Phillies. Philadelphia claimed outfielder
Peter Bourjos off waivers from St. Louis,
and Kansas City acquired backup catcher
Tony Cruz from St. Louis for infielder Jose
Martinez.
Veteran infielder Gordon Beckham, an
Atlanta native and former University of
Georgia standout, agreed to a $1.25 million, one-year contract with the Braves,

Rio Olympic water even worse than thought

By Brad Brooks
RIO DE JANEIRO Olympic sailor Erik

Heil floated a novel idea to protect himself
from the sewage-infested waters he and
other athletes will compete in during next
years games: Hed wear plastic overalls and
peel them off when he was safely past the
contaminated waters nearest shore.
Heil, 26, was treated at a Berlin hospital
for MRSA, a flesh-eating bacteria, shortly
after sailing in an Olympic test event in Rio
in August. But his strategy to avoid a repeat
infection wont limit his risk.
A new round of testing by the Associated
Press shows the citys Olympic waterways
are as rife with pathogens far offshore as
they are nearer land, where raw sewage flows
into them from fetid rivers and storm drains.
That means there is no dilution factor in the
bay or lagoon where events will take place
and no less risk to the health of athletes like

sailors competing farther from the shore.
Those virus levels are widespread. Its
not just along the shoreline but its elsewhere in the water, therefore its going to
increase the exposure of the people who
come into contact with those waters, said
Kristina Mena, an expert in waterborne
viruses and an associate professor of public
health at the University of Texas Health
Science Center at Houston. Were talking
about an extreme environment, where the
pollution is so high that exposure is imminent and the chance of infection very likely.
In July, the AP reported that its first round
of tests showed disease-causing viruses
directly linked to human sewage at levels up
to 1.7 million times what would be considered highly alarming in the U.S. or Europe.
Experts said athletes were competing in the
viral equivalent of raw sewage and exposure
to dangerous health risks almost certain.

The results sent shockwaves through the
global athletic community, with sports
officials pledging to do their own viral testing to ensure the waters were safe for competition in next years games. Those promises took on further urgency in August, after
pre-Olympic rowing and sailing events in
Rio led to illnesses among athletes nearly
double the acceptable limit in the U.S. for
swimmers in recreational waters.
Nevertheless, Olympic and World Health
Organization officials have flip-flopped on
promises to carry out viral testing in the
wake of the APs July report.
Now, the APs most recent tests since
August show not only no improvement in
water quality but that the water is even
more widely contaminated than previously
known. The number of viruses found over a
kilometer from the shore in Guanabara Bay,
where sailors compete at high speeds and
get utterly drenched, are equal to those found

along shorelines closer to sewage sources.
The levels of viruses are so high in these
Brazilian waters that if we saw those levels
here in the United States on beaches, officials would likely close those beaches,
Mena said.
Brazilian, Olympic and WHO officials
now say Brazil needs only to carry out testing for bacterial markers of pollution to
determine water quality. Thats the standard
used by nations around the globe, mostly
because its been historically easier and
cheaper.
WHO said Wednesday that it had no comment on the APs latest findings.
The Rio 2016 Olympic organizing committee said in an emailed statement that the
health and safety of athletes is always a top
priority and there is no doubt that water
within the field of play meets the relevant
standards.

a deal before Wednesday nights deadline and
was set free.
Petit set a major league record during 2014
by retiring 46 consecutive batters over eight

appearances, six in relief, from July 22 to
Aug. 28. The 31-year-old Venezuelan went 3-0
during the 14 postseason, a year after he came
close to throwing a perfect game. He became
so valuable to manager Bruce Bochy for his
ability to start or enter in long relief.
He was the winning pitcher in Game 2 of the
2014 NL Division Series at Washington, a 21 victory in 18 innings. The hard-throwing
right-hander San Franciscos seventh
pitcher threw six scoreless innings of
relief that night with seven strikeouts and
three walks before Hunter Strickland saved it.

Yusmeiro was instrumental in our 2014
World Series title, general manager Bobby
Evans said via text message. His performance was particularly pivotal in Game 2 in
Washington.
Petit moved into the rotation in late August
2014 to replace struggling right-hander Tim
Lincecum, then dazzled down the stretch and
through his first postseason.
Petit carried a bid for a perfect game into
the ninth inning against Arizona before
allowing a two-out single to Eric Chavez on
Sept. 6, 2013.
This past season, Petit went 1-1 with a 3.67
ERA in 42 appearances and 76 innings with
one start.
The 26-year-old Sanchez, who had been
Buster Poseys backup catcher, played in only
28 games for the Giants and ended a second
straight season injured after a series of concussions kept him out of the 2014 postseason. He spent time on the disabled list with
Triple-A Sacramento in 2015 after another
series of concussions.

WARRIORS
Miami reaches agreement

with Richt to coach Canes

this is special. We dont always play our
best but we find ways to win. Thats the
strength of our team. Every night a different
guy might step up and have a huge game and
do the little things that dont show up in the
stat sheet.
Nicolas Batum led Charlotte with 17
points and eight rebounds.
Klay Thompson had 15 of his 21 points in
the first quarter as the Warriors bolted to an
early 15-point lead.
Despite missing the inside presence of
center Al Jefferson out at least two weeks
with a strained left calf and 0-for-8 shooting from Kemba Walker in the first half, the
Hornets fought back to cut the lead to 60-51
at the break.
But midway through the third quarter Curry
got rolling, launching deep 3-pointers, several times turning and jogging back down
court well before the ball even went through
the net.
Curry hit jumpers from 24, 25, 30, 29 and
30 feet in the third period.
When hes feeling it and shoots the ball,
hes already running to the other end of the
court, Warriors interim coach Luke Walton
said. He knows the balls going in before
the rest of us. Hes doing an amazing job of
picking his spots. Hes in his hometown
and hes the best player in the league and he
wants to put on a show.
It marked the fourth time this season
Curry has scored 40 points by the end of the
third quarter. The rest of the NBA combined
has reached that mark just once.
Curry has six 40-point games already this
season.
Nobody has had an answer for him for
two years now, Batum said. You try to
make him work hard, but I dont think weve
seen anybody shoot like him thats pretty impressive. You have to make him work
hard and hope he misses and have a bad day.

that would win ve national championships

in 19 seasons.
Richt takes over a Miami program that hasnt won more than nine games in a season
since 2003, and hasnt won a bowl game
since 2006.
He was mentioned as a potential t for
Miami almost as soon as the Hurricanes red
Al Golden in October, with ve games left on
this years regular-season schedule and one
day after the Hurricanes endured the worst
loss in school history a 58-0 defeat to
Clemson.
When it became known that Richt and
Georgia were parting ways, speculation
immediately centered on him being Miamis
front-runner even though other candidates
were in the mix. Many fans campaigned for
months with hope that Miami would hire
Butch Davis, who left the school in 2000 and
went 52-59 in his subsequent stops with the
Cleveland Browns and North Carolina.
CORAL GABLES, Fla. Mark Richt is

going back to where his college career
began.
The former Miami quarterback has reached a
tentative agreement to be the Hurricanes
next head coach, pending the completion of
contract talks, a person with knowledge of
the negotiations told The Associated Press.
The person spoke Wednesday on condition of
anonymity because the deal has not been
signed and the university has not announced
the hire publicly.
Richt spent the last 15 seasons as the head
coach at Georgia, averaging nearly 10 wins a
season and leading the Bulldogs to a pair of
Southeastern Conference championships.
He is a South Florida native and played for
Howard Schnellenberger at Miami, when the

center Veronica Akolo hit a scoop shot at
the 6:22-mark of the second quarter to make
the score 20-2. Toward the end of the period,
Mia Woo drained a pair of free throws,
before working a perfect give-and-go to
score on a layup with two seconds left in the
rst half.
I was disappointed in the rst half,
McCullar said. We didnt give ourselves a
chance (to stay in the game).
Akolo started to assert herself in the third
period, scoring a pair of basket, while
Emily McAdams scored all seven of her
points over a two minutes and 19 seconds

that bridged the third and fourth quarters.
I am happy we have put together a solid
13 minutes, McCullar said. But thats not
32 (minutes, the length of a high school
game).
The good news for Sequoia is that things
cant get any worse and with a coach like
McCullar a 2011 graduate of Menlo
College where he played all four years and
who already has spent time as a top assistant coach for the Oaks and also with Payes
Place club program who appears to have
what it takes to make the Cherokees a competitive team this season.
At this point, my biggest challenge is to
make sure were on the same page offensively and defensively, McCullar said.
Make sure we pay attention to detail.

Boxing brief
Wladimir Klitschko set for
rematch with Tyson Fury
FRANKFURT, Germany
Wladimir Klitschko has invoked a
contract clause calling for a
rematch with Tyson Fury in an
attempt to regain the heavyweight
title he lost to the British fighter.
Fury took away Klitschkos four
titles in a stunning unanimous
decision in Duesseldorf on
Saturday night, ending the
Ukrainians 9 1/2-year reign as
champion.
Its fantastic news, we are
ecstatic, said Peter Fury, the uncle
and trainer of the new champion.
Fury is obliged contractually to
accept a rematch, he said. Peter
Fury suggested holding the new
fight in England, possibly at
Wembley Stadium.
Fury took Klitschkos WBA,
IBF, and WBO heavyweight belts,
as well as the minor IBO title.
Klitschko had been unbeaten since
April 2004.
I was really frustrated directly
after the fight but after some short
nights I now know that I want to
show that I am much better than my
performance
on
Saturday,
Klitschko said in announcing
plans for the rematch.
I couldnt show my full potential at any time. This is what I want
to change in the rematch and I
will. Failure is not an option.
Klitschkos management team
says it will get in touch with Furys
promoter to set the venue and date
for the rematch.
There will be a huge worldwide
interest in this fight which already
can be billed as the fight of the year
2016, said Klitschkos manager
Bernd Boente.

Mack fills voids on pass rush, leadership for Raiders

By Josh Dubow
ALAMEDA When Justin Tuck went

down with a season-ending torn pectoral
muscle back in October, the Oakland
Raiders knew they would miss his leadership as much as his dependable play.
A veteran of two Super Bowl champions
with the New York Giants and a defensive
captain in Oakland, Tuck was a strong vocal
leader who also set an example with his hard
work and play on the field.
Some of that void has been filled by second-year edge rusher Khalil Mack, who has
increased his voice, as well as his play,
since Tuck went down with the injury.
I think more importantly than just the
stat numbers and things like that, I can tell
how hes become more of a vocal leader,
how hes kind of taken charge of that sideline, kind of like I was before I got hurt,
49ERS
at Chicago and the following week in
Cleveland.
Draughn, who turns 28 on Monday, has 43
carries for 146 yards and 259 total yards in
three games since San Francisco acquired
him.
He had 15 carries for 51 yards in Sundays
19-13 loss to Arizona. Draughn has been surprised at all the chances.
Were fortunate to have him, quarterback
Blaine Gabbert said Wednesday. For him to
LOUNGE
this season is what should be the focus,
Walsh said. (Offensive coordinator)
Steven Lo, as well as Leki, deserves all the
credit for his growth.
Nunn started at quarterback as a sophomore, but was a placeholder until Hunter
Bishop became eligible after transferring
from St. Francis. Nunn started the first four
games under center and threw for 528 yards,
while rushing for 590.
This season, he was starting signal caller
all season and simply improved as the season went along. As a passer, he had only
one start in which he did not throw for at
Tuck said Wednesday. In

the meeting room, hes
asking questions, being
vocal
about
whats
expected of not only
himself but everyone on
that defense.
Mack has been given
quite a bit more responsibility in recent weeks,
Khalil Mack
especially following the
yearlong suspension for Aldon Smith for
violating the leagues substance abuse policy.
With Smith and Tuck out, Mack has been
the dominant force on Oaklands front
seven as the Raiders (5-6) make a push to
the playoffs.
Each week hes been getting better,
defensive tackle Dan Williams said. Hes
one of those young guys who still hasnt
tapped all the talent he has. Im definitely
glad that hes doing a lot more than hes

already done. Hes definitely a great player.
Im just glad he keeps showing it.
Mack is coming off a two-sack performance in last weeks win at Tennessee and
ranks in the top 10 in the league in quarterback pressures, according to game tracking
by Pro Football Focus.
Mack has seven sacks on the season after
recording just four as a rookie, and has been
just as strong against the run.
Theyre doing more with him, Chiefs
quarterback Alex Smith said on a conference
call. Theyre moving him around more.
They can do different things with him and he
can handle all of it.
Even the leadership role, which doesnt
always come naturally to Mack.
Im trying to speak up a little bit more
and talk to the guys, Mack said. Im trying to get better every week.
Mack and the rest of the Raiders would
like to have Tuck back next season. Tuck,

32, is in the final year of a two-year contract
and has expressed interest in staying with
the Raiders.
First, he has to get healthy.
The rehab is good, Tuck said. This
injury isnt as bad as people think it is. I
feel like I could go play now. Thats probably an ignorant Tuck talking, but I feel that
way. Im just going day by day, continuing
to work in hopes of getting it even stronger
than it was before it got hurt.
NOTES : C Rodney Hudson (ankle)
remains out of practice, along with LB
Neiron Ball (knee). ... RB Taiwan Jones was
back at practice after missing last weeks
game with a knee injury. ... Tuck was the
Raiders nominee for the Walter Payton NFL
Man of the Year Award recognizing a player
for his excellence on and off the field. ...
WR Rod Streater was the teams winner of
the Ed Bloch Courage award.
step in and start pretty much from Day 1

going into a game, having only been here
for four weeks and starting the last three
weeks ... its been a tremendous asset to this
offense and this team.
Draughn, 5-foot-11 and 205 pounds, has
gone through so many franchises he wasnt
sure when his chance would come.
He rushed for 2,070 yards and 10 touchdowns to go with 50 catches for 268 yards
and a TD in 44 games during his college
career for North Carolina.
Thats the thing that I feel like Ive been
missing, Draughn said. Other teams didnt
give me this shot, but the 49ers did and I was
definitely going to take it and run like a wild
man when I got the chance. Its a blessing to

be in this position.
Draughn has been reliable without the ball,
too.
Right guard Andrew Tiller, who has started
the past two games, credits Draughn for his
contributions picking up blitzes.
He just sticks his face up in there, Tiller
said. He doesnt care who is blitzing. Hes
going to put his hat in there and pick up that
block. Shaun runs hard. I like Shaun back
there. Hes a good back. I feel like hes getting into a groove. Hes got our trust up
front.

Fun and festive holiday gift paper

By Kim Cook
Why settle for run-of-the-mill holiday

gift wrapping when there are dozens of wonderful papers available?
This years designs reflect whats going
on in decor, with metallics of all kinds, and
masculine and feminine motifs playing off
each other, says Krissa Rossbund, senior
style editor at Traditional Home magazine.
And as with home decor, theres also room
for adding your own touch.
YIN AND YANG

Theres wonderful visual tension right
now in design that has a masculine slant,
Rossbund says. For instance, The
Container Stores got a repeating deer print
on a blue background, and a handsome gold
antler print on black; both have a menswear
vibe, great for wrapping guy gifts.
(www.containerstore.com)
Rifle Paper Companys got some designs
that arent overly Christmas-y yet evoke
the season. Graphite Lace puts a feminine

print on a chic gray background. Holiday
Greens renders flowers and greenery in rich,
earthy hues. Blush, mint, charcoal, gold
and cream in a similar print make for a
Winter
Wonderland.
(www.riflepaperco.com)
Pier 1 has a realistic, birch-bark printed
paper, and a homespun plaid that reverses to
poinsettias and holly. (www.pier1.com)
HAVING FUN
Yummy, photo-printed gingerbread cooks
up a luscious paper at Zazzle. Black may not
seem like a seasonal color, but with brightly colored ornaments, holiday lights or
reindeer in the foreground, you have a paper
that pops. The retailer also has some personalized options that let you add a family
photo or name to a design of your choice.
(www.zazzle.com)
Royal-blue paper studded with glitter creates an elegant wrap at Paper Source. And
for fun, theres a Hanukkah paper populated
with herds of llamas. A page of hand-drawn
Hanukkah wishes in white on blue would be

just as pretty framed as it would be as wrapping paper. (www.papersource.com)
CLASS ACT
At Paper Mojo, find some art papers perfect for small and special gifts. One refined,
color-saturated paper is hand-marbled by
Brazilian artist Renato Crepaldi.
We were originally attracted to Renatos
work because of his vibrant colors and crisp
lines, says company co-founder Shelly
Gardner-Alley. Hes exhibited his work in
art galleries around the world.
The retailer also has Japanese prints
known as chiyogami silkscreened onto
papers made with kozo plant fibers, available on special order. And an Indian paper is
embossed with myriad metallic pebbles,
giving the impression that youre wrapping
something in hammered gold. Also, there
are Snow & Grahams striking yet simple
papers: Designs include ribbon candy and
holiday lights. (www.papermojo.com )
Recycled cotton fiber is used to make eco-
friendly papers at Luxe Paperie. On one, silvery reindeer strut across a rich yellow
background; on another, a gold, French,
damask-inspired design on deep red looks
like luxe linen. Mod Moroccan and ikat patterns are rendered in soy inks on recycled
content paper. (www.luxepaperie.com)
PERSONAL TOUCH
Rossbund suggests making gift wrap
your own by opting for a solid signature
color. Opt for a couple of big rolls in colors
you love, and then customize them with
add-ons like contrasting ribbon bows or
even yarn.
A skein of yarn is a cost-friendly solution and adds a welcoming warm texture to
packages thats reminiscent of a cozy
sweater, she says. Get creative using
knots instead of bows for a simple, graphic
appearance.
Think beyond the gift-wrap roll, if you
want. Foreign-language newspapers, and
pages from childrens books or coffee-table
art books make interesting wrapping paper.

Book looks at how top artists TRIP

choose, display works at home
By Katherine Roth
NEW YORK Imagine being invited on a

house tour of the homes of 25 well-known
contemporary artists, strolling around their
big, airy downtown lofts and other city
abodes as they take you aside and explain
how they chose the artworks displayed
there.
The new book Artists Living with Art
(Abrams) is that tour.
The coffee-table book, photographed by
Oberto Gili and written by Stacey Goergen
and Amanda Benchley, with a foreword by
art historian Robert Storr, includes dozens
of photos and interviews with the artists,
most of whom live within blocks of each
other.
Chuck Close, Will Cotton, Rashid
Johnson, Marilyn Minter, Cindy Sherman
and others discuss how they select and display the artworks decorating their homes,
and their thoughts on collecting. The result
is an artistic and original approach to interiors.
Here, art tends to be moved frequently
often every six months and paintings can
be overlapped, often leaning casually
against walls.
Chinese scholars rocks stones naturally formed by the weather into interesting
forms and a range of handmade ceramics
are featured in almost every home. And each
intimate interior reflects friendships and
inspirations, and includes an often-unexpected array of collections, many displayed
in unusual ways.
Through looking at the things artists
own and listening to their stories of what it
means to them, you can learn more about
their work, inspirations and relationships,
explained Goergen, who previously worked
in the curatorial department

of the Whitney
Museum
of
Modern Art.
In
every
home featured,
we saw a passion for form,
she said, mentioning
the
artists shared
interest
in
rock
formations.
Joan Jonas collects interesting stones or
rocks herself and sometimes gives them to
her friends as gifts, Benchley added.
Unlike professional art collectors, who
might buy art as an investment or focus on a
specific genre, or interior designers, who
select works with an eye to decorating a
space, these artists require a deeper, more
personal connection for a work to gain
entrie.
The results can be startling, like Closes
passion for Old Master canvases and drawings, sometimes alongside more contemporary masters like Roy Lichtenstein and
Willem de Kooning.
If an artists work can hold the wall with
that of his heroes, he knows hes on the
right track., writes Storr in the book.
The light-filled loft that Will Cotton
shares with Rose Dergan, a staffer at
Gagosian Gallery, features plenty of his
own work. An enormous sculpture of
stacked, life-size plaster cakes stands near a
huge front window, not far from enormous
landscape paintings featuring lollipop trees
and gingerbread houses. There are portraits
of beautiful women clad in marshmallows or
cake, or lounging seductively on cottoncandy clouds.
recently elected to the San Mateo County

Community College District Board of
Trustees, agreed it did not make sense for the
South San Francisco District to spend the
$2,000 for him to travel on behalf of the district he will leave in the coming weeks.
He said there were no hard feelings about
not be allowed to go to the conference which
he had attended for the past few years, and
believed making the decision in a public
forum was a good way to build community
trust in the boards process.
It was about being responsible about our
funds, in light of the scrutiny of the district,
whether it is the bond, or whatever, he said.
We are just making sure we are being
thoughtful.
District officials have come under fire in
recent months for the way money from
Measure J, the districts $162 million bond,
has been spent. An independent audit of the
bond fund found tax money was over spent by
$11 million, forcing officials to transfer
money from the districts maintenance fund
to fill the spending gap.
Goodman had been selected to attend the
conference prior to his winning election to
the community college board, but said he felt
the district would be better served to have
someone else from the board attend the conference.
The only reason to not go was to not waste
district funds, said Goodman.
Goodman is set to take the oath of office for
joining the community college board
Wednesday, Dec. 9.
Trustees Patrick Lucy and Rick Ochsenhirt,
as well as board President Judy Bush, attended
the conference along with Superintendent
Shawnterra Moore. Lucy, who initiated the discussion regarding which members of the board
should attend the conference, said the decision
to exclude Goodman was not personal.
Its not that Maurice should not go, he
said. Its about the benefit of having a return
on investment, and who is going to be here
THE DAILY JOURNAL

after the conference to bring these great ideas
that we get from the conference back to our
schools.
The conference is the California School
Board Associations annual event, which
brings educators from across the state together in San Diego for a variety of talks and
workshops, beginning Wednesday, Dec. 2,
and spanning through the weekend.
The $2,000 which would have been spent
to send Goodman to the conference accounts
for conference admission, hotel and airfare,
according to a district report.
Lucy said it is imperative the district gets
subsequent benefit should one of the trustees
wish to attend an event on the districts tab.
It was not to cancel him out, said Lucy, of
Goodman. It was to find the right person to
be here for this program.
The board discussion Monday served as a
good opportunity for the board to establish a
policy on how to address outgoing trustees as
well, said Goodman.
Its just about having a contingency plan
should a person get elected, he said.
He said he felt the board ultimately made the
right decision, in a quick and efficient fashion. The board is learning to work together,
and I think this is a step in the right direction
to make sure we are as transparent as possible, he said.
Lucy echoed much of that same sentiment.
Everyone was very comfortable with the
decision, he said.
As Goodman prepares to leave his seat and
join the community college board, the South
San Francisco Unified School District Board
of Trustees is seeking his replacement.
Residents interested in joining the unified
school district board on a provisional basis
for one year, are encouraged to submit an
application plus two letters of support to the
superintendents office, on the campus of
South San Francisco High School, 400 B St.
Candidates will be interviewed by the board
during a public meeting Monday, Jan. 11, in
the district office, and an appointment is
scheduled to be made during a regular board
meeting Thursday, Jan. 14, at Baden High
School.

From flavors to fragrances to cures, herbs deliver

By Dean Fosdick
Herbs are among the most useful plants in

nature. They deliver flowers, flavors, fragrances and cures. Theyre also good for
repelling deer, attracting pollinators, clearing the air, freshening your breath and concocting beauty treatments.
Most are easy to grow, indoors or out.
Herbs dont require much space, and many
thrive in dry conditions.
These are really multi-purpose plants,
said Sue Goetz of Tacoma, Washington,
author of The Herb Lovers Spa Book (St.
Lynns Press. 2015). There is no other
plant category with so much diversity.
Herbs probably are best known for their
culinary qualities, but using them for fragrance has captivated gardeners for thousands of years.
Plant extracts were used in bathing, and
for scenting and cleansing linens and
clothes, the floors of homes, tiles, tents,
horses and even the sails of ships, Goetz
said. In Elizabethan times, aromatic herb
waters and cut stems of plants were sprinkled
on floors to mask unpleasant odors.
There are more than 100 different herbs
from which to choose. It all depends on what
you want from them.
Think beyond kitchen gardens, said
Goetz, who recommends herbs for sanctuary
settings.
Surrounding yourself with herbs in the
garden is like having your own fresh apothecary, she said. These arent just plants that
do one thing, like taste good; they heal,
have anti-bacterial qualities, soothe skin,
calm down a bad mood.
Goetz singles out mint as a plant familiar
to most people yet with healing qualities all

but unknown.
It is a wonderful aromatic that uplifts a
tired mind, or when used in a foot spa, mint is
a stimulant that revives tired feet by bringing
blood to the surface or the skin, she said.
Herbs also come in handy if you have animals around the house, said Pam Miller, a
master gardener from Frederick County,
Maryland.
A wonderful way to deodorize carpets
from pet smell is to mix two parts of baking
soda to one part dried lavender flowers or
leaves, she said in a University of Maryland
Cooperative Extension fact sheet.
Sprinkle onto the carpet as you would use
a carpet deodorizer, Miller said. Wait 15
minutes and vacuum. Not only will your carpet be refreshed, but also the ingredients will
not harm your dog or cat. And it smells great
when you vacuum it up.
Miller also suggests saving dried lavender
There are more than 100 different herbs from which to choose for your garden.
stems for woodstoves or fireplaces as a fragrant additive when lighting up.
Here are some herbs that people often
overlook, along with some extraordinary
uses:
BASIL: Most people think of this herb
(for) their latest pasta dish, but it is a good
tonic herb, Goetz said. Basil water will
help heal irritated skin. I love using the purple-leaf varieties to add color to container
gardens.
LEMON VERBENA AND SCENTED
GERANIUMS
(PELARGONIUMS):
Intensely fragrant when rubbed or brushed
against.
GERMANDER: Nice as a small herbal
hedge, Goetz said. Hang them in the
kitchen or bathroom for a deodorizing air
freshener.

UC,CSU
course work to be eligible, so in a

way we are making progress, he
said. And it is absolutely critical the
UC and CSU schools are able to
accommodate those successes, especially Californias successes, because
these are Californias kids.

Mateo County as well, according to
local school officials, who say they
too have seen a dip in county high
school students getting into the
University
of
California
or
California State University systems.
Jim Lianides, superintendent of the
Sequoia Union High School District,
said in an email his district has seen
in recent years more students struggle
with gaining access to state schools.
We are finding that students are
applying to more universities in the
last several years than they historically have in the past leading to a
slight decline in admission rates, he
said. Admission rates to the most
sought after UC campuses such as
Berkeley and San Diego have experienced a decline.
He noted more students in his district have tried to apply to state
schools in recent years, as a higher
number of students are completing
the curriculum requirements in high
school which make them eligible to
apply for universities.
But the strenuous work required to
prepare themselves for higher education seems to pay fewer dividends
than years prior, which is concurrent
with the trend on a state level,
according to the report released
Monday, Nov. 30, the same day
applications the University of
California system were due.
The gap between the number of
Californians applying to the
University of California and
California State University systems
and those admitted has doubled since
1996, according to the report.
In the fall of 2014, according to the
report, 30,209 students eligible to
enroll in the California State
University system were denied admission, which is 8,512 students more
than 2011.
Applications up, budget down

Meanwhile, the percentage of high
school graduates applying to schools
in the University of California system has increased to 21 percent, up
from 17 percent in 1996. But admission has stayed the same at roughly
14 percent over that same period,
while enrollment has dropped a single point to 7 percent, according to
the report.
The struggle to gain admission is
attributed in part to low levels of
state spending on public higher education, according to the report,
which has resulted in an inadequate
amount of seats available in state
Increased standards
university classrooms to accommodate demand.

State appropriations are down to
the tune of roughly $1. 08 billion
since 2007 for the University of
California system, according to the
report, and down by about $1.03 billion for the California State
University system over the same
period.
This spending dip has made it difficult for local students to attend
California state schools, in part
because university officials are
increasingly looking to enroll students from out of state, as they can be
charged higher tuition rates to fill the
funding gap, said Audrey Dow, a
spokeswoman for the Campaign for
College Opportunity.
What we are seeing is that in order
to backfill lost revenue, the UC system in particular has increased the
number of international and out-ofstate enrollment, she said. You see
an exponential growth in enrollment
in out-of-state and international students, while you see enrollment of
California students is flat, while
demand is increasing. Eligible
Californians arent finding their
spots.
Rewarding California students

San Mateo County Superintendent
Anne Campbell noted the shifting
admission standards creates diverse
campuses, but advocated for local students to be able to enjoy increased
access to state universities.
While universities benefit from
enrolling a diverse student body,
including international and out-ofstate students, its also vital that
Californias academically qualified
students have access to the UC and
CSU systems, she said in an email.
Ted Lempert, president of local education advocacy group Children Now,
said he believed the hard work of students to prepare themselves for the
state university system should be
rewarded.
It is great news that so many more
students are applying and taking
Part of the struggle for students to

gain admission to state schools, particularly in the University of
California system, is the increasing
grade point average and test scores
required to be considered, according
to the report.
Barring
the
University
of
California at Merced, the grade point
average and median SAT score of students admitted to all schools in the
University of California schools has
increased since 2001, according to
the report.
Many of the University of
California schools are comprised of
students who earned a grade point
average of higher than 4. 0, and
earned nearly perfect standardized test
scores, according to the report.
Marc Friedman, president of the
San Mateo Union High School
District Board of Trustees, noted the
potential harm that can be done by
the ramped-up competition local students must face when attempting to
enroll in the state school system.
The issue here is we are constantly
concerned about the pressure our students come under, and the impact that
has on their mental health, he said.
This situation just worsens that
pressure.
He noted that local districts have
worked hard to prepare their students
for higher education, and would like
to see the students get a return on
their investment.
Weve done our part, and it is like
the state is letting us down, and letting our students down, he said. We
have great universities, and it
becomes harder for them to get into
these universities.
Dow said she believed to address
the issue, more money should be
injected into public schools, and
officials should also consider revising the higher education master plan
which regulate admission state public
university system.
We need to reinvest in our system
significantly so we can have the
spots available that we need, she
said.
Lempert agreed more policy
changes may be in order to address
the increasing demand for a state
school education.
What this is all about is making
sure young people will have a bright
future, he said. This is really concerning.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Carlos Antonio Pantoja, aka, Carlos A.
Pantoja
Case Number: 126343
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of Carlos Antonio Pantoja,
aka, Carlos A. Pantoja. A Petition for
Probate has been filed by Carlos Alejandro Pantoja in the Superior Court of California, County of San Mateo. The Petition for Probate requests that Carlos Alejandro Pantoja be appointed as personal
representative to administer the estate of
the decedent.
The petition requests the decedents will
and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the
court.
The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the personal 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 objection 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: JAN 13, 2016 at
9:00 a.m., Department 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 Probate Code section 9100. The
time for for filing 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 DE154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.
