Foster City and San Mateo are moving toward sharing more re personnel as a way to save both cities money. The two cities already share a re chief in Dan Belville, hired after Tom Reaves, Foster Citys former re chief, retired in June 2010. Belville, a San Mateo employee, now leads the two departments and, if both councils agree, the cities will now share a deputy re chief and battalion chief as well. So far, sharing re services with San Linda Koelling Mateo has worked out well although it is not always simple, said Foster City Mayor Linda Koelling. The plan so far has served us very successfully. It may sound simple, but it is not. There is a lot of planning related to this, Koelling said. Foster Citys goal is to balance its budget by 2013 without dipping into its reserves. Its current decit is about $3 million and the city has been looking at ways to reduce expenditures in

Demi Moore to divorce Ashton Kutcher
LOS ANGELES Demi Moore is ending her marriage to fellow actor Ashton Kutcher, she told the Associated Press on Thursday. Moore, 49, and Kutcher, 33, were wed in September 2005. The couples relationship became tabloid fodder in recent months as rumors swirled about Kutchers alleged indelity. It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that I have decided to end my sixyear marriage to Ashton. As a woman, a mother and a wife there are certain values and vows that I hold sacred, and it is in this spirit that I have chosen to move forward with my life. This is a trying time for me and my family, and so I would ask for the same compassion and privacy that you would give to anyone going through a similar situation, she said in her statement to the AP. The pair frequently used Twitter to communicate with each other as millions of fans followed along. I will forever cherish the time I spent with Demi, Kutcher tweeted Thursday. Marriage is one of the most difcult things in the world and unfortunately sometimes they fail. Moore said in 2007 that her MayDecember relationship with the star of That 70s Show and Punkd who is 15 years younger than Moore caught us both by surprise. If somebody would have said, OK, here is the prediction: Youre going to meet a man 25 Demi Moore years old and hes going to see being with you and having your three kids as a bonus, I would have said, Keep dreaming, Moore said in a 2007 interview with Vanity Fair. I think it caught us both by surprise, and Ashton Kutcher particularly him. Kutcher became a stepfather to Moores three daughters Rumer, Scout and Tallulah Belle from her 13-year marriage to actor Bruce Willis. Moore and Willis divorced in 2000 but remained friendly. Moore and Kutcher were photographed socializing with Willis, and the couple attended Willis wedding to model-actress Emma Heming in 2009. Moore and Kutcher created the DNA Foundation, also known as the Demi and Ashton Foundation, in 2010 to combat the organized sexual exploitation of girls around the globe. They later lent their support to the United Nations efforts to ght human trafcking, a scourge the international organization estimates affects about 2.5 million people worldwide. Moore can be seen on screen in the recent films Margin Call and Another Happy Day. Kutcher replaced Charlie Sheen on TVs Two and a Half Men as is part of the ensemble lm New Years Eve, set for release next month.

A woman was test driving a vehicle that was being sold and took off with the car and the paperwork on Redwood Shores Parkway in Redwood City before 11:52 a.m. Tuesday, Nov. 8.
A longtime Belmont police officer and two officers with the California Highway Patrol stationed in Redwood City were honored this week by state Attorney General Kamala Harris for their outstanding achievements. CHP officers Randy Vigus and Aaron Nelson, who work out of Redwood City, were honored with valor awards for putting their own lives at risk in an attempt to save a suicidal woman who tried to jump from a bridge on Woodside Road in Redwood City last year.

Kevin has always set a standard for others to follow, Mattei wrote to Harris. Daley cares for those he leads and has a passionate commitment to the community, Mattei wrote. Kevin will retire Randy Vigus knowing the satisfaction of a job well done and the pride that he leaves behind an organization that will carry on his professional values for generations to come, Mattei wrote. Harris presented the award Wednesday at the Alameda County Sheriffs Aaron Nelson Department to Daley along with Vigus and Nelson of the CHP. At about 3:30 a.m., Sept., 2, 2010, the two highway patrol officers spotted a woman

Upon arrival, the two officers saw the woman Kevin Daley throw her purse over the bridge, which spans 27 feet above El Camino Real. As they approached the woman, she began screaming and said she planned to jump from the bridge. The woman placed her right foot on the bridge railing, pushed off with her left foot and began to fall from the bridge. The officers responded instantly as Vigus grabbed her torso as she fell from the bridge and was quickly assisted by Nelson. She became combative and attempted to strike the officers as they brought her to safety.

Man who burglarized dead womans home sentenced

Painting theft took place during memorial service
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A man accused of burglarizing a deceased Hillsborough womans home while her family was at the memorial was sentenced yesterday to eight years and eight months in prison for several counts of theft. Robert John Alarid, 42, must also pay restitution to his victims, including the family of the deceased womans home he entered. The same jury that convicted Alarid of felony grand theft, grand theft auto and identity theft also hung 9 to 3 on a charge of seconddegree burglary. Following his trial, a judge also found true his prior convictions which made him ineligible for probation. Alarid and co-defendant Beverly Betty Wilkerson-Aldabashi, 42, were accused of stealing from at least two Hillsborough homes and, at arrest, allegedly had in their possession stolen items from 173 separate victims in California, Arizona and Florida. The Hillsborough case stemmed from the burglary of Lee Simpson Kavanaughs Ascot Road
home during her memorial service. Kavanaugh died Aug. 9, 2010 at age 70. On Aug. 18, 2010, during Kavanaughs memorial elsewhere, prosecutors say Wilkerson-Aldabashi and Alarid ransacked the home. Among the items Robert Alarid taken were an douard Leon Corts painting of a Paris street scene insured for $100,000, jewelry, antique clocks, china dinnerware and a 2003 Toyota Camry. The car was later sold in San Jose using a stolen drivers license which led authorities to the suspects. Wilkerson-Aldabashi took a deal at a pretrial conference, pleading no contest to felony counts of burglary and identity theft in return for three years prison. Prior to trial, prosecutors dismissed several charges against Alarid for insufcient evidence. He had been held on $150,000 bail. 20th Ave., San Mateo. The council will also vote on a 9.9 percent garbage rate increase during its regular meeting. The meeting starts 7 p.m., Monday, Nov. 21, City Hall, 330 W. 20th Ave., San Mateo.

Occupy protesters march; 300 arrested

NEW YORK Occupy Wall Street protesters clogged streets and tied up traffic around the U.S. on Thursday to mark two months since the movements birth and signal they arent ready to quit, despite the breakup of many of their encampments by police. Hundreds of people were arrested, most of them in New York. The demonstrations which took place in cities including Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Boston, Washington and Portland, Ore. were for the most part peaceful. Most of the arrests were for blocking streets, and the traffic disruptions were brief. Chanting All day, all week, shut down Wall Street, more than 1,000 protesters gathered near the New York Stock Exchange and sat down in several intersections. Helmeted police officers broke up some of the gatherings, and operations at the stock market were not disrupted. As darkness fell, a coalition of unions and progressive groups joined Occupy demonstrators in staging rallies at landmark bridges in several U.S. cities to protest joblessness. In New York, a crowd of several thousand people, led by banner-carrying members of the Service Employees International Union, jammed Manhattans Foley Square and then marched peacefully across the Brooklyn Bridge on a pedestrian promenade. As they walked, a powerful light projected the slogan We are the 99 percent a reference to the Americans who arent superrich on the side of a nearby skyscraper. Police officers dressed in wind breakers, rather than riot gear, arrested at least two dozen people who walked out onto the bridges roadway but otherwise let the marchers pass without incident.

Democrats keep distance from protests

By Beth Fouhy
NEW YORK The arrests and occasional violence marking Occupy Wall Streets two month anniversary underscore Democrats strategy of keeping their distance from the protest movement. Democrats and Occupy Wall Street share similar concerns about economic inequality. But while the Republican Party and the tea party were a natural political pairing, Democrats have been reluctant to cast their lot with Occupy agitators who confront police and squat in public encampments. Thursdays mass demonstrations in New York, Los Angeles and elsewhere were a
stark reminder of why the Occupy movement remains a mineeld for Democrats, even as polling continues to show public support for its message. At least 175 were arrested as protesters attempted to block traders from entering the New York Stock Exchange in lower Manhattan. Police said four ofcers were injured when demonstrators threw liquid possibly vinegar in their faces. The arrests came two days after hundreds were forcibly evicted from New Yorks Zuccotti Park, where the Occupy Wall Street movement was launched Sept. 17 when activists pitched tents to protest policies they said benet only the wealthiest 1 percent of Americans.

Mental state questioned for accused child grabber

By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A 33-year-old transient accused of grabbing a womans ponytail and stealing a childs potato chips outside a Redwood City supermarket may not be mentally t for trial, according to his defense attorney. Brian Adam Christensen appeared in court yesterday for a preliminary hearing but his court-appointed attorney Lisa Maguire questioned his competency. Criminal proceedings were suspended and two doctors will be named Tuesday to evaluate his mental state. Maguire could not be reached for comment. Competency is a persons ability to aid in his or her own defense while sanity is the mental state at the time of a specic alleged crime. If Christensen is found incompetent, he will be sent to a state mental hospital. If, however, the doctors agree he is mentally t, Christensen will stand trial for rst-degree robbery, battery and resisting arrest. He has pleaded not guilty. Prosecutors say Christensen approached the woman outside Chavez Supermarket on Nov. 2 where she was with her 2-year-old son and a 3-
year-old she was baby-sitting for a friend. Christensen reportedly grabbed the womans hair without warning, and asked if she had a problem, before latching onto one childs foot and trying to pull him from a carousel, according to the District Brian Attorneys Ofce. Christensen The woman kicked the man, later identied as Christensen, and police reported he grabbed the childs potato chips and walked off. Redwood City police found Christensen nearby with the chips and arrested him after a struggle in which he spit at and tried to head butt an ofcer. He also rambled in a bizarre manner to the ofcers, according to the prosecution. Christensens criminal record includes misdemeanor convictions for battery and being under the inuence but there werent any previous requests for competency determinations, said District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe. Christensen remains in custody in lieu of $100,000.

The California Faculty Association which represents about 23,000 professors, lecturers, coaches, counselors and librarians at the systems 23 campuses authorized the one-day walkout at the East Bay and Dominguez Hills campuses. It was the rst faculty strike since systemwide collective bargaining began in the early 1980s. The strike came a day after the university Board of Trustees voted to raise tuition by 9 percent, or $498, next fall during a meeting that was disrupted by a violent confrontation between protesters and police. Four protesters
were arrested, and several officers were injured in Wednesdays clash at university headquarters in Long Beach. Striking faculty members began arriving early Thursday at the Dominguez Hills campus in Carson and the East Bay campus in Hayward. They were joined by hundreds of their colleagues from other Cal State schools. The leadership of this institution is using faculty, students and staff as if they were ATMs, said Lillian Taiz, a history professor at the CSU Los Angeles campus who heads the faculty association. They turn to us to bail out the university. In Hayward, faculty members picketed at the schools two main entrances, slowing traffic into campus and urging motorists to support the strike. They blew whistles, beat drums and carried signs with slogans such as We teach the 99 percent. About 300 faculty members, wearing red union T-shirts with the words Enough is enough, gathered for a festive noon rally in the middle of the main road leading to the hilltop campus near San Francisco Bay.

properties in California where they served as landlords, according to the Los Angeles Times, which rst reported the story. They also Kamala Harris want to nd out what role the two agencies played in selling or marketing mortgage-backed securities, the newspaper reported. The issuance of subpoenas is the latest move by Harris to examine the actions within the mortgage industry that decimated Californias housing market and led to a wave of foreclosures. Harris has created a task force that is pursuing criminal charges and civil judgments in mortgage fraud cases. She also recently announced that her ofce would not agree to a planned 50-state settlement over foreclosure abuses that federal ofcials and other state attorneys general are negotiating with major U.S. banks. She called the deal inadequate for California homeowners, arguing that it gave bank ofcials too much immunity from civil litigation. The nationwide talks have been designed to institute new guidelines for mortgage lending, which came under scrutiny after some homeowners were improperly foreclosed upon using faulty paperwork. Earlier this month, Harris called upon Ed DeMarco, the acting director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, which regulates Fannie and Freddie, to allow larger reductions of principal to help struggling homeowners. The government rescued the pair of mortgage titans in 2008 after they nearly collapsed because of huge losses on risky mortgages they bought. Taxpayers have spent about $170 billion to rescue them, the most expensive bailout of the recent nancial crisis. Officials estimate the bailout could reach up to $220 billion through 2014. This week, the House Financial Services Committee approved legislation that would suspend tens of millions of dollars in executive compensation packages at Fannie and Freddie and stop future bonuses. A dozen executives at the rms received roughly $35.4 million in total salary and bonuses in 2009 and 2010. Fannie Mae CEO Michael J. Williams received about $9.3 million for the two years. Freddie Mac CEO Edward Haldeman Jr. was paid $7.8 million for the same period.
State AG subpoenas mortgage giants

By Greg Risling
LOS ANGELES Californias attorney general has subpoenaed mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac looking into their lending practices in the state, a person familiar with the matter told the Associated Press on Thursday. The subpoenas were issued to the two rms as part of a state investigation, the person told AP on condition of anonymity because he wasnt authorized to talk about it publicly. Lynda Gledhill, a spokeswoman for Attorney General Kamala Harris, declined comment. Representatives for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac also did not comment. State investigators will be looking at Freddie and Fannies involvement in more than 12,000 foreclosed
Court says backers can Congress about to cut funds defend Proposition 8 for high-speed rail program

SAN FRANCISCO The sponsors of a voter-approved same-sex marriage ban have the authority to defend the measure in court since the governor and attorney general refuse to do so, Californias highest court said Thursday in a precedent-setting ruling with consequences for the states vigorous citizens initiative process. Responding to a question from a federal appeals court considering the constitutionality of the gay marriage ban known as Proposition 8, the California Supreme Court said the lawmaking power granted to citizens under the state constitution doesnt end once propositions have been approved or rejected by voters. It would clearly constitute an
abuse of discretion for a court to deny the ofcial proponents of an initiative the opportunity ... to assert the peoples and hence the states interest in the validity of the measure and to appeal a judgment invalidating the measure, the ruling states. In the 61-page advisory opinion, the seven justices said denying ballot proposition backers a seat at the table would effectively grant the governor and attorney general veto power over initiatives with which they disagreed, a situation the justices said would undermine the law-making powers California gave voters in 1911. It would exalt form over substance to interpret California law in a manner that would permit these public ofcials to indirectly achieve such a result by denying the ofcial initiative proponents the authority to step in, the decision states.

WASHINGTON Congress voted Thursday to kill funds for President Barack Obamas signature high-speed rail program, but the initiative may have some life in it still. Republican lawmakers are claiming credit for killing the program. But billions of dollars still in the pipeline will ensure work will continue on some projects. And its still possible money from another transportation grant program can be steered to highspeed trains. Obama had requested $8 billion in scal 2012 for the program and $53 billion over six years. But House-Senate bargainers this week agreed to a broad spending bill that eliminates any funding specically for high-speed trains. The House approved that legislation Thursday 298-121 and the Senate fol-
lowed suit 70-30, sending the measure to the White House. Republicans have made it clear since taking control of the House last year that they intended to eliminate the program, which they say is too costly. The bill marks an end to the presidents misguided high-speed rail program, but it is not the end of American high-speed rail, said Rep. Bill Shuster, R-Pa., chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committees railroad subcommittee. Shuster and the Transportation Committees chairman, Rep. John Mica, R-Fla., say the future of highspeed rail in the U.S. is in the Northeast rail corridor, which connects Boston, New York, Philadelphia and Washington, rather than the national network of trains envisioned by Obama.

Data theft of patients Obama hails trade deal part of wider problem
By Don Thompson and Marcus Wohlsen

SACRAMENTO The theft of a computer containing information on more than 4 million patients of a major Northern California health care provider may be among the largest breaches of health care data in recent years, but its far from the only incident of its kind. Over the last two years, health care organizations have reported 364 incidents involving the loss or theft of information ranging from names and addresses to Social Security numbers and medical diagnoses on nearly 18 million patients equivalent to the popu-
lation of Florida. A thief stole medical information on more than 4 million patients of Sacramento-based Sutter Health last month by the simple act of breaking a window with a rock at the afliated Sutter Medical Foundation. Stolen over the weekend of Oct. 15 were monitors, keyboards and a desktop computer containing patient information dating to 1995. Employees reported the theft to Sacramento police when they returned to work that Monday, Oct. 17, said Sgt. Andrew Pettit, but they didnt notify the public until Wednesday, a month later. The company said in announcing the theft Wednesday that some patients might not receive mailed notices until early next month.
BALI, Indonesia Promoting American trade, President Barack Obama on Friday presided over a deal that will send Boeing plans to an Indonesian company and create jobs back home, underscoring the value of the lucrative Asia-Pacic market to a president needing some good economic news. Obama stood watch as executives of Boeing and Lion Air, a private carrier in Indonesia, signed a deal that amounts to Boeings largest commercial plane order. Lion Air ordered 230 airplanes, and the White House said it would support tens of thousands of jobs in the U.S. The U.S. president, eager for
Philippine President Benigno Aquino III. Obama made a point of meeting with Singh in Bali as part of his mission to devote attention to India, which the administration wants to play a larger role in Asia as the worlds largest democracy. In brief remarks to reporters, Obama and Singh hailed the importance of their nations work together in such areas as maritime security and the effort to stop the proliferation of nuclear weapons. Im very happy to report to you there are today no irritants whatsoever in our working together in a multiplicity of areas both bilateral, regional and global, Singh told Obama, who visited India last November.

Idaho man charged with trying to assassinate Obama
BOISE, Idaho An Idaho man accused of ring an assault rie at the White House believed he was Jesus and thought President Barack Obama was the Antichrist, according to court documents and those who knew him. At one point, he even suggested to an acquaintance the president was planning to implant computer tracking chips into children. Oscar Ramiro Ortega-Hernandez, 21, was charged Thursday with attempting to assassinate the president or his staff. He is accused of ring nine rounds at the White House last Friday night one of them cracking a window of the rst familys living quarters when Obama and the rst lady were away.
LONDON Airlines have already begun charging for food, drinks, seat assignments and baggage. Now one is demanding that passengers cough up extra cash on board for fuel. Hundreds of passengers traveling from India to Britain were stranded for six hours in Vienna when their Comtel Air ight stopped for fuel on Tuesday. The charter service asked them to kick in more than 20,000 pounds ($31,000) to fund the rest of
the ight to Birmingham, England. The situation may represent a new low in customer care in an era when yers are seeing long lines, long waits and few perks. Britains Channel 4 news broadcast video showing a Comtel cabin crew member telling passengers: We need some money to pay the fuel, to pay the airport, to pay everything we need. If you want to go to Birmingham, you have to pay. Some passengers said they were sent off the plane to cash machines in Vienna to raise the money.

OPINION
Obamas pipeline politics

The Ottawa Sun, Ontario
Other voices
ately to secure oil exports to Asia-based clients. The Northern Gateway pipeline is therefore key. In politics as in comedy, timing is everything, and so Prime Minister Stephen Harper had the perfect stage during a recent meeting of Pacic-rim leaders to lay out his position to Obama. And kudos to him for doing just that. In doing so, Harper made sure the international media was aware of Obamas real reason for delaying the $7-billion Keystone XL pipeline which would hook up Albertas ethical oil
hile U.S. President Barack Obama puts personal politics ahead of his countrys critical need for oil via the Keystone XL pipeline, Canadas wooing of the Asian option should move quickly beyond simply courtship. It should ramp up the Northern Gateway pipeline to our west coast post-haste. We have the oil sands crude that China and India are lusting after. If the faltering Obama administration doesnt want it, and is willing to squander the opportunity in a Hail Mary attempt at winning back voters, then Canada should move forward immedi-
with reneries in Texas. Dumb political reasons, at that. Theres Obamas decision to breathe life back into the crippling Buy American rules for accepting foreign exports like Canadian steel, for example and the odious plan to raise $100 million by nicking Canadian travelers with a $5.50 passenger inspection fee. He is grasping at straws, and knuckling under to the Hollywood crowd who can afford the hypocrisy of accepting unethical Saudi oil over oil sands crude, and supporting the no-longer-welcome Occupy mob. Until the 2012 election is over, American politics will be contorting itself for at-home votes, and saying whatever is necessary to get them.
The path to prosperity

am part of Generation X, so named because we supposedly didnt have an identity or a cause. We were considered slackers because there was nothing to rail against and nothing to focus our energy. Once out of college, there werent that many opportunities for someone interested in writing so I continued working at the grocery store that paid for my studies, my rent and my car and picked up whatever writing job I could. It wasnt easy, but hard work and dedication paid off. I have a rewarding job that pays for necessities and that contributes to the common good. Now, there is another generation of people who are misrepresented by a movement of people occupying various public locales concerned about the state of the nation and its rich people. This movement has some legitimate concerns lack of jobs, for one. But that always seems to be the case unless you happen upon a boom like the go-go dot-com era. It is hard for me to feel sympathy for the people expecting, no demanding, things to which they feel they are entitled. It is a sickness that evolved from the housing and credit boom in which easy money meant many borrowed more than they could afford for comfort like new homes, remodeled kitchens and new furniture and when children were given trophies for merely participating. Now, some with a college degree feel entitled to a good-paying job and things theyd rather not pay for or even work for. Weve gone soft. The message seems to be that no one wants to work manual labor jobs or make minimum wage to make ends meet. It seems no one wants to pay for their student loans if they cant get the perfect job. Student loans are not a new concept. Theyve been around for years and are the cost of going to college if you do not come from a family of means. No one held a gun to anyones head to go to college, just as no one held a gun to anyones head to sign an adjustable rate mortgage. It was their choice and they entered into their loan agreements with the full knowledge it was not free money, that it would need to be paid back and that it did not guarantee anything. Is it Wall Streets fault? No. Our financial system is a defining character, and one that should remain centered in our country. It is not without its faults and deserves some amount of regulation, though many of the regulations that got it into trouble were rooted in our political system more than 10 years ago when the push for home ownership began. But I get the sentiment. I do. Why was the financial system bailed out when others were left to languish? That is a deficiency of our political system that made those decisions, but Congress or the White House is not necessarily feeling the brunt of these protests aimed toward high-income earners. It is more complicated than the rich just simply hoarding the cash, which is not a new phenomena by any means. The beauty of the United States is that one can find opportunity when it is not given, if one is willing and able to be creative and work hard. Standing in a park or plaza with a sign complaining about the fortune of others is not a path to prosperity and squatting on public land denying the rights of others to use that same public land how they see fit is not an extension of the First Amendment. Generation X was slammed for not having a cause and not having direction. But we soon found ourselves and got to work because that was what we were meant to do. If that meant taking a job below our skill set, so be it. It was a means to an end that better suited us. I am not contending we are a better generation than any other, in fact I believe Americas greatest generation outside of those who helped forge this nation was after World War II, when we overcame an actual worldwide threat by working together and making something of ourselves. That should be the defining character of any American generation. Generation X felt the shadow of the Baby Boomers and overcame the slacker label by simply saying, We can do this. We can prove you wrong. The result of our work was many of the tech platforms on which the whole of our society rely. The nations economic situation is difficult right now. Many of us are feeling it. But we cannot complain ourselves to prosperity. A better path would be to assess the situation at hand, make the best of it and take one step at a time to build something newer and greater.

Letters to the editor

A lose-lose proposition
Editor, I am a taxpayer whose taxes were lost when San Mateo County/Lee Bufngton invested school district funds in Lehmans securities (County wins legal battle over Lehman in the Nov. 12-13 edition of the Daily Journal). Now as a taxpayer, I am funding the litigation and court costs of both parties in the lawsuit and the likely appeal. As a taxpayer, I will likely be asked to fund the settlement, if any, of the loser. So as a taxpayer, I am funding both sides of one or more lawsuits when on balance I will not benet no matter who wins. Does this make any sense? and Republicans leave their failed parties and re-register with decline to state, this would send a powerful message and force the entrenched politicians to serve the interests of the nonafliated. If this resonates with you, please help promote a movement to uncommit your vote. budget, the bailout of the banksters and the tax cuts on the very wealthy people of our nation. Since Jackie voted for the wars, the bailouts and the tax cuts for the rich; I do not agree that she has done a good job for the working people of San Francisco and San Mateo.

Speiers voting record

Editor, In his Nov. 12 letter to the editor, Appreciating Jackie Speier, Michael Traynor thinks Jackie Speier works hard for the people of San Francisco and San Mateo by trying to deal with the high cost of living, unemployment and trying to increase educational and housing benets for our veterans. My concern is not for her honest efforts but for her voting record. Jackie has voted to fund the endless wars, voted for tax cuts for the rich and voted two times for the trillions of dollars that our government gave to the banking industry with no strings attached. She also explained to an auditorium of her constituents (nearly all wearing blue ribbons to demonstrate their support for single payer health care) that she was not going to heed their advice on how to vote on this issue; but she would heed the advice of Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama and not support single payer, Medicare for all. The problems we have now with the collapse of our economic system, the rising cost of education, people losing their jobs, health benets, homes and pension benets and the coming austerity plans to cut our domestic programs are caused by the massive military
A hidden gem
Editor, Regarding your recent article on the pending closing of the Burlingame Post Ofce (Burlingame post ofce sale considered in the Nov. 5 edition of the Daily Journal); you might note that Burlingame has a second post ofce just off Bayshore Highway on Stanton Road (near the Marriot). It is on the other side of Highway 101 from downtown. It is probably the best-run post ofce I have ever used. The businesses and hotels on this side of 101 use it for convenience shipping, late mail drop and P.O. boxes. The people there are always nice and you can always park at the curb, 15 feet from the door. There are post boxes at the curb with a 5:30 p.m. nal collection. Our law rm used to weigh and put postage on our outgoing document packages, but now we just take them to the post ofce. The lines are usually short (one or two people) and it takes them about three minutes to process half a dozen rst-class packages while I swipe my credit or debit card. They hand me one beautifully itemized receipt with town, zip, weight and postage for each package.

The next Solyndra

Editor, President Obama just postponed a positive decision on a pipeline from Canada to Texas until after the presidential election. Canada doesnt really care as they will just divert the oil to Asia. The United States should care a lot as we do not get the 120,000 jobs that the pipeline would have brought. I guess Obama is just waiting to fund the next Solyndra. What a shame.

Wall Street
chief market strategist at RDM Financial in Westport, Conn. If it werent for Europe, I think equity markets would be doing much better right now. The Dow Jones industrial average dropped 134.86 points, or 1.1 percent, to close at 11,770.73. The index wavered most of the morning, then turned sharply lower shortly after noon. It fell as many as 229 points at 2:30 p.m. Spain has more than twice the amount of debt as Greece and Ireland combined, which would make it difcult for other countries to rescue. Like Italy, whose main borrowing rate also spiked above 7 percent in the last week, the country is trying to pay down its debts as its economy slows. The Spanish bond auction came a day after Fitch Ratings warned that major U.S. banks could be greatly affected if Europes debt crisis continues to spread beyond the nancially troubled Greece, Ireland, Portugal, Italy and Spain. Another looming concern for investors is that a Congressional supercomittee will fail to agree on $1.2 trillion in budget cuts before a Nov. 23 deadline. If they dont, huge cuts to government spending are scheduled to kick in across the board.
Big movers
Stocks that moved substantially or traded heavily Thursday on the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq Stock Market: NYSE Acco Brands Corp.,up $1.84 at $8.80 The branded ofce products maker announced that it is merging with MeadWestvaco Corp.s consumer and ofce products business. Youku.com Inc.,down $3.31 at $17.24 The Chinese Internet video company posted a smaller loss in the third quarter,but the decit was larger than Wall Street expected. Nasdaq Sears Holdings Corp.,down $3.11 at $65.19 The department store operator said its thirdquarter loss widened,in part because of softer clothing sales at its Kmart stores. SXC Health Solutions Corp.,up $3.18 at $52.74 The pharmacy benets manager will buy privately held HealthTrans,which also manges pharmacy benets,for $250 million in cash. Zoll Medical Corp.,up $8.18 at $43.84 The resuscitation device maker said its fourthquarter prot grew 65 percent on strong sales of its wearable debrillator. NetApp Inc.,down $5.01 at $35.73 Citing the weak economy, the data storage company posted a current quarter forecast that fell short of Wall Street estimates. Salix Pharmaceuticals Ltd.,up $2.07 at $35.97 The Food and Drug Administration advisory panel supported a clinical trial to test a possible new use for the companys drug Xifaxan. Applied Materials Inc.,down 94 cents at $11.53 The California chip equipment maker said that its fourth-quarter net income dipped 3 percent as demand for its products fell.
NEW YORK A spike in borrowing costs for the Spanish government renewed worries about Europes debt crisis and pushed stocks lower for the second day in a row. A stalemate in Congress over cutting the budget decit also pulled the market down Thursday. Technology stocks sank after NetApp and Applied Materials predicted weaker earnings. In Spain, an auction of 10-year bonds left the country paying interest rates of nearly 7 percent, the highest rate since 1997. Economists see that level as unsustainable because it would make the interest payments on Spains debt so high that the government would barely be able to afford them. Greece and Ireland were forced to seek rescue loans from the European Union after their bond yields jumped above the same level. Concerns about Europes debt crisis overshadowed better economic reports in the U.S. The number of people seeking unemployment benets last week fell to the lowest level in 7 months, a sign layoffs are easing. The economic data in the U.S. has been improving, said Michael Sheldon,
Slow improvement in job market

By Christopher S. Rugaber
WASHINGTON Little by very little, the job market is getting better. A closely watched measure of the jobs crisis, the number of people ling for unemployment benets for the rst time each week, fell to 388,000 in a report released Thursday, its lowest point since April. The four-week average, which economists check because it smooths out the week-to-week uctuations in the job market, dropped below 400,000 for the rst time in seven months. Claims would have to be below
375,000 and consistently to signal the sustained job gains that the United States needs to lower its 9 percent unemployment rate. But economists were at least encouraged by the trend. The level isnt as important as the change, said Michael Gapen, senior U.S. economist at Barclays Capital. And right now thats suggesting moderate improvement. The number of Americans receiving unemployment benets fell to 3.6 million. That is the fewest since Sept. 20, 2008 the week that Lehman Brothers went bankrupt and started the nancial meltdown. The 3.6 million gure is through Nov.
5. Thats down from nearly 4 million at the beginning of the year. Some of that decline is because recipients found work, but much of it is because many of the unemployed have used up all their benets. The governments count of the total number of Americans on the jobless rolls trails the report on rst-time claims by one week. The nation added 80,000 jobs in October, the 13th straight month of gains. It added more in August and September 104,000 and 158,000 than the government rst thought. It takes about 125,000 a month to keep up with population growth.
As fewer buy homes,apartment construction surges

By Derek Kravitz
WASHINGTON Builders have found a way to make money in a decrepit home market: Apartments. The number of permits to build apartments jumped to a three-year high last month. In 12 months, theyve surged 63 percent. Blame the housing bust, which left many people without the means, the credit or the stomach to buy. More peo-
ple need apartments. The demand has driven up monthly rents. And apartmenthome builders are rushing to cash in. That said, the overall home market remains depressed. Builders are still struggling. They broke ground on a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 628,000 homes last month, the government said Thursday. Thats barely half the pace that economists equate with a healthy market. High unemployment, stagnant pay and waves of foreclosures have slowed sales of single-family homes, which make up
about 70 percent of the home building market. Apartment construction may be surging, but its a small portion of the industry. More apartment building wont add enough jobs to reduce unemployment or hasten an end to the housing crisis. Still, its contributed to the overall economys growth for two straight quarters. And many economists expect apartment construction to grow for at least the next 12 months, as long as the economy avoids another recession.

Chu: Solyndra loan based on merits, not politics
WASHINGTON An unapologetic Energy Secretary Steven Chu defended a half-billion-dollar federal loan to a solar-panel manufacturer that went belly up, even as he told a House committee Thursday he was unaware of dozens of key details that led to the debacle over Solyndra Inc. Under hours of hostile questioning from Republicans on the House Energy and Commerce Committee, Chu declined several opportunities to say he was sorry, but acknowledged that in hindsight the deal was extremely unfortunate and regrettable. Certainly knowing what I know now, wed say no, Chu said during a daylong hearing before the energy panels subcommittee on investigations.

annual sales drops the last six years at stores open at least a year in North America, a key measure of a retailers health. Continued deep discounting and rising costs have only compounded the largest U.S. clothing sellers troubles. The company has closed or shrunk Gap stores and last month detailed a plan to close 189 locations, or 21 percent of its namesake Gap stores in the U.S., by the end of 2013.

Weve got answers

The CCS playoffs begin and they bring a slew of questions
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
less questions. Here are just a couple as the county gets ready for a weekend full of games.
Fasten your chin straps, boys and girls; its time for the big boys to play some football. The Central Coast Section playoffs kick off tonight, with 10 local teams vying for a CCS title in ve different divisions. Terra Nova and Sacred Heart Prep return as division champions, albeit with the Tigers now competing in the sections toughest division instead of Division III. Ten teams in contention equates to count-
1. Can Terra Nova stop Bellarmine?

There are those of us who believe that Terra Nova presents an interesting matchup for the West Catholic Athletic League champion, as in, the Tigers will put up points against Bellarmine. The Bells come into the game allowing only 12 points per game in 2011 and Terra Nova has scored an average of 38 per. But Bellarmine has yet to face an offense like Terra Novas in the WCAL. And that gives the Tigers a punchers chance. The question is, can Terra Novas defense step up and produce a handful of stops? Head coach Bill Gray said that his team is
peaking at the right time, as in, defensively, theyre hitting their stride. The Tigers can win, but theyll have to ride their defense to do so. Prediction: Bellarmine
2. How many points will Serra put up against Wilcox?

With all due respect to the Chargers, there is very little mystery about how this game will transpire Saturday afternoon. Wilcox have a pair of huge things going against them. One, theyre 3-5-2 heading into the game. And two, Serra already showed what they can do against their defense, running up 52 points against them in roughly three

Skyline gets another shot at CCSF M-A back in section finals

By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Perhaps the soccer gods have a sense of humor. Or maybe they just like good, intense soccer matches. Either way you slice it, you get the sense they really like to see the Skyline womens soccer team take on the City College of San Francisco. For the fth time in a year, the Lady Trojans and the Rams will do battle on the soccer pitch, but in round No. 5, the stakes will be the highest as the CCCAA playoffs get under way. Skylines appearance this year marks the third consecutive season theyve made the NorCal playoffs and the fth time in the past eight seasons. And in 2011, their return to the show has taken on a new edge with their upcoming bout with the second seeded Rams. Skyline is the No. 15 seed.
I dont know about divine intervention, said Skyline head coach Kevin Corsiglia. I think its fun. I think the girls are excited for it. We said at the beginning of the season, if we want to be league champs we have to beat them. We couldnt pull that off. But yes, were getting a second chance to do something that may even be more than a league championship to get a result in the playoffs and move on. Skyline has yet to post a winning result against the Rams in their resurgence atop the Coast Conference North Division. In fact, CCSF has yet to lose a conference match in two years. And theyve gone through this stretch in dominating fashion, outscoring their opponents 139-24. In their four previous matches, the Rams have gone 3-0-1 against Skyline, outscoring them 11-0. But it was in their last matchup, a Sept. 30 game that ended in a nil-nil draw, that the Lady Trojans showed that perhaps the tide
was nally turning. That game marked the only time the Rams didnt score a goal in 2011. And it marked a positive result for Skyline who gave up a ve spot to CCSF earlier in the year. In that game, Skyline found themselves without a key member of their attack early in the game due to injury. As such, they were forced to go away from their game plan. Down only 2-0 at the half, the wheels eventually came off in the games latter 45. Their eld is very compact, Corsiglia said, and so, its difcult to play there. Its a very tight, narrow eld and theyre a very quick and athletic team. We werent the team that we were when we played them the second time. We were much more prepared for them, much more organized. It made a big difference. But with that, chapter ve of the saga will take place in San Francisco and that is hurdle

Penn State scandal puts campus police in spotlight

By Justin Pope
At Penn State, as at many colleges, campus police occupy an unusual and much-misunderstood spot on the law enforcement spectrum and when scandal breaks, that often leads to questions about divided loyalties. The latest developments in the sex abuse case there have put universitys police front and center of some of the most prominent unanswered questions. Did Penn State ofcers thoroughly and professionally investigate allegations that former assistant coach Jerry Sandusky sexually abused children on campus, only to have their ndings quashed by prosecutors and imageconscious university administrators who preferred to handle things in-house? Or were the police themselves part of a

cover-up? The grand jury report alleging sexual abuse by Sandusky and perjury and failure to report by two university administrators including the vice president who oversaw the campus police suggests it was others who dropped the ball. But it also leaves many questions unanswered. Campus police conducted a thorough investigation of one victims allegations in 1998 along with local police and state investigators, the report says, only to have the district attorney decline to prosecute. And the report says university police were never notied by anyone at the university of assistant coach Mike McQuearys report hed seen Sandusky rape a boy in a campus shower. While former vice president of nance Gary Schultz oversaw the police department, he is charged with breaking the law by failing to report the accusation to actual university police ofcers or other authorities.
MILPITAS When second-seeded MenloAtherton met third-seeded Carlmont in the Central Coast Section Division I volleyball seminals Thursday night in Milpitas, it had all the makings of an interesting grudge match. It was a matchup between the top two squads from the Peninsula Athletic Leagues Bay Division with a spot in the CCS nals on the line. The Bears had beaten the Scots twice on their way to an undefeated league season, but like they say, one of the hardest things to do in sports is beat the same team three times in one season. In the end, M-A showed why it is the PAL champs. The Bears dominated in every facet of the game as they rolled to a 25-13, 25-12, 25-20 win. The win sends M-A (29-5) into the CCS Division I championship game for the third straight year. The Bears will face top-seeded Palo Alto, which beat Salinas in straight sets, 25-15, 25-18, 25-20. Its a rematch of the 2010 nals in which the Vikings topped the Bears in three sets. The Bears lost to Salinas in the championship match in 2009. Will the third time be a charm for the Bears? Thats what Ive been saying all year, said M-A coach Jen Wilson, who is in her third year with the Bears. Im hoping this time, the third time is a charm. If the Bears play against Palo Alto like they did against Carlmont, they have a shot. While the Bears were firing on all cylinders, Carlmont (25-10) could not nd a rhythm. A lot of that had to do with M-A. The Bears did a tremendous job digging up the Scots attacks, which left Carlmont frustrated. M-As good. They played well. They made

Skyline mens basketball is young, inexperienced

By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
After going winless (0-12) in the Coast Conference North and nishing just 8-17 overall during the 2010-11 season, the general perception is the Skyline mens basketball team has nowhere to go but up. Unfortunately, coach Justin Piergrossi is looking at the possibility of another long season in 2011-12. Its definitely going to be a work in progress, Piergrossi said. We are extremely young and extremely inexperienced, which is usually a recipe for an up-and-down season. Of the 14 players on his roster, Piergrossi said eight did not play basketball last season. No high school, no college, no nothing, Piergrossi said. In addition to youth and inexperience, the Trojans will be small. With their tallest player listed at 6-4, Piergrossi is going to have to implement an offense that relies on spreading defenses out by putting his players on the perimeter and then trying to nd offense with dribble penetration. The Trojans should be ne in the penetration department with former Mills standouts Kyle Wong and Kevin Chew. Wong was one of the PALs best point guards before graduating in 2010 and spending his freshman year in college at CSU-Monterey Bay last year. Chew seamlessly picked up where Wong left off at Mills, developing into one of the PALs best guards. Piergrossi expects both to be on the oor at lot. He said Wong will split time between the two guard spots, while Chew will function as the Trojans primary ball handler. Marcus is pretty tough and Kyle is pretty quick and hopefully they can create some matchup problems. They can get in the lane, Piergrossi said. Were going to have to shoot the ball pretty well to win some games.
Hopefully they can create some shots off the penetration. The most experience the Trojans will have is at one of the forward/wing positions with the return of former El Camino standout Anthony Smith, who played for Skyline two years ago before redshirting last season following knee surgery. Piergrossi said Smith gives the rest of the younger guys a teammate to whom they can look to see how to prepare at the junior college level. Every day he walks in the gym, we know we can count on him to bring the same level of performance (day in and day out). Joining Smith in the frontcourt is former Sacred Heart Cathedral standout Nate Gartrell, who has spent the last two years playing junior college baseball. An arm injury has him turning back to basketball this season. Hes trying to make the adjustment of being a college basketball player, Piergrossi said. Hes a very athletic, hard-playing kid and those kinds of kids have a chance to play at this level. Redshirt freshman Matt Cesca, who did not play his senior year at Capuchino, will hopefully help out in the frontcourt but, at 6-4, is a center in name only. He can step out and shoot the ball, so maybe he can bring some bigger [defenders] out (to guard him), Piergrossi said. There will be no tricks to which Piergrossi can turn, however, to make his team better overnight. Ive told our guys we have a long way to go until were playing at our best. We have so many areas where we need to improve, Piergrossi said. We have a challenge. No doubt about it. There is no magic. Were not going to come up with something that will even the playing eld. We have to play hard, we have to be in the right position, run our stuff well and get better as we go along.
49ers Gore expects to be ready Sunday

By Antonio Gonzalez
SANTA CLARA Frank Gore showed up in the San Francisco 49ers locker room Thursday wearing a blue, short-sleeved collared shirt. A dark blue patch on one side of his chest had Frank stitched in white letters. Not the normal NFL attire. While an outsider mightve mistaken the two-time Pro Bowl running back for a plumber, Gores outt made a statement inside 49ers headquarters: Hes back and ready to resume his blue-collar work. The two-time Pro Bowl running back said his injured right knee has healed and he expects to revive his chase of San Francisco records Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals, the same team that ended his season last year with a fractured hip. Things happen for a reason, Gore said. Im back and Ill be ready. That could be bad news for another NFC West opponent. Gore had his franchise-record streak of ve straight games with 100 or more yards rushing snapped last weekend against the New York Giants when he hyperextended his knee and was held to zero yards on six carries his rst career game without a yard. Gore has 7,196 career yards rushing and needs 149 more to pass late Hall of Famer Joe Perry (7,344) for the most in franchise history. Consider the pursuit back at full speed. Gores absence from practice Wednesday the rst one he missed since a brief contract holdout at the start of training camp turned out to be a decision by coach Jim Harbaugh to give his running back some rest. Gore returned to practice Thursday with no brace supporting his knee and the usual tape around his ankles. I want to be out there bad, he said. Ill play. Ill play good. San Franciscos surprising start this season has been built around a power running game. Harbaughs version of the West Coast offense at times includes seven offensive linemen and a mix of tight ends and fullbacks. Teams have started to take notice and are changing coverage. The Giants often stacked the line of scrimmage with nine and even 10 players against the 49ers. They also added extra linebackers and linemen, doing all they could to force Alex Smith to pass, and things only got more complicated once Gore went down. It was pretty much a numbers situation. It was extremely loaded boxes, offensive coordinator Greg Roman said. Youve to go to some high school elds to nd that loaded of a box. Gore has been on a mission since the NFL lockout lifted in the summer. He promised for months that he still was among the leagues best running backs, a bold statement considering hes 28 and coming

back from another serious injury. Gore also coveted a new contract and was rewarded with a $21 million, three-year extension before the season. All he has done since is earn his paycheck. Gore has run for 782 yards and ve touchdowns this season. He also has 14 catches for 86 yards and has been a key cog in pass protection during San Franciscos seven-game winning streak. Since we got on a roll, weve just been running the ball successfully, Gore said. Everybodys been trying to stop it. Keeping Gore healthy for the playoffs is paramount. Gore has had two major knee operations, countless ankle injuries and will be reminded of his most recent major setback when he takes the field against the Cardinals at Candlestick Park. He fractured his hip in a Monday night game against Arizona last November, cutting his season short and leaving everybody wondering whether hed ever be an elite back again. With the 49ers facing a quick turnaround at Baltimore on Thursday, rookie Kendall Hunter is likely to see extended time against the Cardinals to keep Gore fresh. Even Harbaugh joked about making sure his starting running back stays healthy. Franks going to get the gold standard of medical care, just like all our fellas, Harbaugh said. But Frank just a little bit more, a little extra for Frank. Tebow said during the week that the most exciting thing he did during the week wasnt preparing for Rex Ryans dominant defense but announcing his foundation was building a childrens hospital in the Philippines. The Jets (5-5) lost their second heartbreaker in four days. Mark Sanchezs desperation pass toward the end zone was batted down as time expired. Nick Folks 45-yard eld goal broke a 10-10 tie with 9:14 remaining, and the Broncos found themselves facing a daunting task when they got the ball back with 5:54 left at their own 5. New York safety Jim Leonhard could have throttled Denvers winning drive on the rst play when he wrapped up Eddie Royal in the end zone on a throw to the right at, but Royal wiggled free for 8 yards.

Tebow does it again, leads Denver past the Jets
DENVER Tim Tebows 20-yard touchdown run with 58 seconds left capped a 95yard drive and sent the Denver Broncos to a 17-13 victory over the stunned New York Jets on Thursday night. Tebow saw the blitz and outanked safety Eric Smith around the left edge, then cut back and bulled his way past other Jets into the end zone. We have a resilient team, Tebow said. And a resilient, if unorthodox quarterback. The Broncos (5-5) are 4-1 since Tebow replaced Kyle Orton.

RaidersVeldheer faces huge Sharks beat Wings Sharks 5, Red Wings 2 challenge against VikesAllen
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ALAMEDA Oakland left tackle Jared Veldheer has a monumental task this week trying to slow down NFL sacks leader Jared Allen of Minnesota. While it might sound a little crazy, Veldheer hopes the Raiders let him go at it alone. The second-year offensive lineman certainly respects Allen and calls him one of the best in the league. Veldheer just thinks the Raiders offense could suffer if they have to send help his way. You want to have (teammates) be able to do their thing, Veldheer said Thursday. You want them to be able to get in the pass route to make a rst down or do something to help us convert. As long as you do Jared Veldheer your job and someone doesnt have to help you, then were better off. Then again it really hasnt mattered what strategy teams have used against Allen. His 13 1/2 sacks are two off his career high, and the three-time Pro Bowl defensive end needs only 4 1/2 more to reach 100 for his career. Since notching half a sack in Minnesotas opener against San Diego, Allen has had at least one full sack in eight straight games. In four of them, hes had multiple sacks. Hes as good as there is in football, Raiders coach Hue Jackson said. The guy has 13 1/2 sacks, and its not by accident. He doesnt make any magical things happen, he just goes and plays extremely hard. What we have to do is get him blocked. That job will primarily belong to Veldheer. Oaklands third-round draft pick in 2010, Veldheer has been one of the Raiders most consistent players on an offensive line that is second in the NFL for sacks allowed (11). A year after getting burned for 7 1/2 sacks as a rookie, the 6-foot-8, 315-pound Veldheer has been beat for sacks only twice this season. Hes also reduced his penalties, from 15 in 2010 to just ve through nine games this season. Jackson acknowledges Veldheer has never faced a challenge quite like the one Allen poses, which is why the Raiders will probably
scheme for some additional help on the left side of the line. Hes one of those guys (where it) doesnt matter if youre running the ball away from them, they can make the play, Oakland quarterback Carson Palmer said. Hes a higheffort, explosive, fast, tenacious defender. He can do it all so hes a guy that we denitely need to keep an eye on and know where he is at all times. Veldheer was drafted out of Hillsdale College to play left tackle for the Raiders but he wound up making his NFL debut at center when Oakland couldnt nd anyone else to do the job. He moved back to tackle the following week and hasnt left the job since. I feel like Im always still working at it, Veldheer said. I dont feel like Im at a spot where Im there where I need to be. I dont feel that at all. There are a bunch of things I can get better at. Oaklands entire offensive line has been playing well despite starting two players Veldheer and rookie left guard Stefen Wisniewski who have been in the league fewer than two full seasons. The 11 sacks allowed by the Raiders are the second-fewest in the NFL this year, one more than the Buffalo Bills. Oakland also owns the leagues fourth-ranked rushing attack, a nod to the ve men up front. Still, as good as Veldheer and the line have been, Oakland will almost assuredly deploy some extra help to slow down Allen. (Veldheer) doesnt want a lot of help, truth be told, Jackson said. He wants to be out there on his own. But I have the right to determine that. So, what well do is help when we think our guys need help and well try to get our guys out when we think we can get them out. Notes: Rookie cornerback Chimdi Chekwa was placed on injured reserve because of a lingering hamstring injury. Bryan McCann, who has played for both Dallas and Baltimore this season, was signed to take Chekwas spot on the 53-man roster. ... DT Richard Seymour (knee) did not practice but Jackson sounded as though it was just a precautionary move. ... Running back Darren McFadden (foot sprain) and wide receiver Jacoby Ford (foot) were also held out of practice.
SAN JOSE Joe Thornton, Marc-Edouard Vlasic and Torrey Mitchell all scored in the second period and helped the San Jose Sharks beat the Detroit Red Wings 5-2 on Thursday night. Joe Pavelski and Brad Winchester also had goals for the Sharks, who won for the third time in four games and extended their winning streak over the Red Wings to ve, dating to last November. Niklas Kronwall and Danny Cleary scored for the Red Wings, who have lost two straight since a four-game winning streak. Detroit has been beaten in ve consecutive road games. Defenseman Brendan Smith made his longawaited debut, but was never a factor. Antti Niemi stopped 40 shots in the win. Jimmy Howard allowed four goals on 21 shots before being replaced by Ty Conklin, who allowed a goal on seven shots. Kronwall gave Detroit a 1-0 lead with a power-play goal late in the rst period. His shot from the blue line pinballed off Niemi
and Sharks defenseman Dan Boyle before nding the net. The Sharks tied it with 12 seconds remaining in the period on Pavelskis short-handed goal. Thornton raced to gather the puck, and delivered a pass to Pavelskis stick. Thorntons second-period goal opened the gates for the Sharks. He took a pass from Logan Couture and sent it into the top right corner of the net midway through the period. Vlasic scored three minutes later on a wraparound, and Mitchell made it 4-1 with 1:42 left in the period. Winchester picked up a rebound in front of the net midway through the third period and scored to give the Sharks a four-goal edge. Cleary added a power-play goal late for the Red Wings. NOTES: Vlasic set a career high with four points. ... Thornton is 73rd on the NHL points list with 1,016. ... The Red Wings were 0 for 16 on the power play before connecting twice against the Sharks. would never want to ever put myself in the same category as him.

New brain study to test 100 former NFL players

By Rachel Cohen
The researchers studying a degenerative brain disease in former athletes plan to test about 100 retired NFL players to try to learn how to diagnose the condition during life. For now, the only way to conrm Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy is by examining brains after death. The Boston University center that has analyzed the brains of more than 70 former athletes is starting a three-year study of living patients. The Center for the Study of Traumatic Encephalopathy at BUs School of Medicine also will recruit 50 retired elite athletes from non-contact sports as a comparison group, co-director Robert Stern told The Associated Press on Thursday. The rst subject completed the two days of extensive testing Wednesday and Thursday. Until CTE can be diagnosed during life, its impossible to develop treatments or to determine how to prevent it, Stern said. We need answers on this disease really quickly, he said. Co-director Dr. Ann McKee has found CTE in more than 50 former athletes; in the past year alone, the list has included sports stars Dave Duerson of the NFL and Rick Martin of the NHL. Linked to repeated brain trauma, CTE is associated with symptoms such as memory loss, impaired judgment, depression, and, eventually, progressive dementia. The study, called DETECT, is the rst on CTE funded by the National Institutes of Health. The goal is to nd differences between
the NFL players and the athletes who havent experienced repeated blows to the head. Subjects are own into Boston for a wide variety of tests. On the rst day, they spend a total of about two hours in scanners at Brigham and Womens Hospital for different kinds of neuroimaging. The second day takes place at BUs medical school and includes a spinal tap, a lengthy psychiatric interview and blood work. The NFL players must be offensive and defensive linemen, linebackers or defensive backs, because those positions involve the most repeated brain trauma. The subjects are between the ages of 40 and 69 and suffer from some symptoms associated with CTE. They all had long football careers to ensure an extensive history of blows to the head. Multiple concussions are not a requirement partly because players may not even know they had a concussion, and partly because the evidence suggests CTE can occur simply through play after play of knocks to the head. The NFL and the players union are helping the center to contact former players. Stern said the initial response had been extremely positive. Theres a sense that former players want to be able to do something to not only potentially help themselves but also to help get the research moving quickly to help others in the future, he said. The athletes in the comparison group will include retired swimmers and tennis players among others, recruited through college alumni associations and sports leagues.

On their eld, CCSF is known for pushing a lot of players forward. And on a short eld like theirs, they arent as susceptible to the counter attack. Corsiglia knows to compete, his team will have to maximize their chances when the counter attack presents itself. We have to be very organized defensively, he said.

They know how to place really well in their place.

Penn State has 46 full-time armed ofcers, compared to 65 in surrounding State College.

Another misconception: Campus police arent real police. In many jurisdictions, including at Penn State, theyre functionally no different than

But in an email obtained earlier this week by The Associated Press, McQueary insists he did have discussions with police and with the ofcial at the university in charge of police. That contradicts the grand jury report, however, and on Wednesday both police departments reiterated they had no record of any report by McQueary. The grand jury report also leaves ambiguity about the tone and substance of the investigation campus police did conduct in 1998. For
instance, when campus police Detective Ronald Schrefer and a state child welfare investigator interviewed Sandusky, the report says Sandusky admitted showering with the victim and that it was wrong.

clicking on all cylinders defensively, will give any team in Division III a serious run for their money. And then theres the South City team that showed holes against teams that take it to them physically, with losses in the Ocean Division to Aragon and Half Moon Bay. Coach Frank Moro says the Warriors will be ready and games against Mountain View and Jefferson in the preseason (which SSF won) gave them a taste of competition at a higher level. When theyre at their best, South City is a force. Willow Glen comes into the game after a tough season full of injuries. But they won their last three games to get into the playoffs. Prediction: South City

who recently committed to the University of Oregon. Marshall is ultra fast. And to VCs credit, he isnt even their leading rusher. Jarrod Lawson leads the Warriors with 1248 yards rushing (an average of 8.79 per touch). He also has 14 touchdowns. And if the Panthers are able to stop those two, there are the likes of Ryan Severson, who averages 11.22 yards a carry. The task is huge, but word around Burlingame is that the Panthers are excited for the challenge. Prediction: Valley Christian

complete quarters of work. In that game, Erich Wilson scored a school-record six touchdowns. There is no reason to believe the Padres wont do the exact same thing. Calpreps.com is predicting at least 44 points for Serra. Im going with 50-plus. Prediction: Serra
6.What is El Caminos silver lining?

There arent many expecting El Camino to put up much of ght against No. 2 Pioneer. And make no mistake about it, the Colts have quite a mountain to climb against the Mustangs. Pioneer can pound the ball. Theyre averaging 288 yards on the ground per game behind ve runners with at least 240 yards rushing on the season. Theyre led by Dominic Barnes (768 yards) and Russell Neeley (699), plus Sean Nelson and Curtis Tanquary see adequate carries. Stop us if that style of play sounds familiar? Perhaps a team like South City who featured four bruisers en route to their eighth-straight Bell Game win? For the Colts to have any shot, running back DJ Peluso must have an insane game, which he is capable of. Prediction: Pioneer
3.What is Menlo-Atherton thinking right now?

Hopefully, its not why didnt Serra opt up? and more like, how legitimate is this Santa Clara offense? The Bruins feature a three-headed rushing attack with Adam Garza, Adrian Gutierrez and Raymond Remo they come in averaging 240 yards of rushing offense per game. But while they are 8-2, their two losses have come against Wilcox and South San Francisco, two teams that, at least theoretically, M-A is better than. The Bears bounced back from their 35-0 loss to Terra Nova and beat Woodside, but they werent at their sharpest. But perhaps that win refocused the boys from M-A heading into CCS. The computers have the Bears favored by a couple of scores. Prediction: Menlo-Atherton
Ocean Division (in undefeated fashion), Half Moon Bay silenced a lot of people. That hush can get even more deafening with a win over No. 3 Monte Vista Christian. Monte Vista comes in with a single loss, a 48-14 drubbing by Monterey two weeks ago. Their nine wins have come by an average of 21 points. But their offensive statistics arent overwhelming, with the Mustangs averaging only 208 yards a game. The computers at calpreps.com like the Cougars by a point, 22-21. Prediction: Half Moon Bay
8. How healthy is Sacred Heart Prep?

Its a pretty important question, especially on offense, given that, without quarterback Jack Larson, the Gators went from scoring 28 points per game to 10. And theyre going to need plenty of points if they are going to keep up with No. 5 Scotts Valley. Scotts Valley comes in averaging 53 points and 382 yards a game. The two teams met earlier this season with the Gators posting a 3115 win and it was the Falcons lowest scoring output of the season. With Sacred Heart Prep at less than 100 percent, this CCS matchup should be closer. Prediction: Sacred Heart Prep
10.Will anyone punt in the matchup between Menlo and Carmel?

Our Magic 8-Ball says, Dont count on it. Menlo and Carmel hooked up three years ago in the Division IV championship game and the teams combined for 91 points. And all signs point to that being the case in 2011. Menlo comes in after beating Sacred Heart Prep 26-0, locking up their playoff spot via that victory. Their reward as the No. 7 seed is a date against a Padres team averaging almost 57 points per game and a defense allowing only 14. Menlos offense is lead by sophomore Jack Heneghan, who has shown ashes of brilliance in 2011. The Knights come in averaging 28 points per game. For Menlo to be victorious, Heneghan must be awless and his defense will have to contain Carmel on at least a handful of drives. Prediction: Carmel
5.Who is Sobrato and can they play football?

The Sobrato Bulldogs hail from Morgan Hill and reeled off a 7-0 record in the Santa Teresa League and a 7-3 overall mark. Actually, two of their three losses this season came via forfeit after playing with an academically ineligible player. Their only other loss came against Leland, a team that will participate in CCSs Open Division. Their defense is good. Their offense might actually be better, and its probably the most balanced attack Aragon has faced all season long their average of 329 yards of offense per game is split 126 passing and 203 rushing. So yes, they can play and, as the No. 5 seed, No. 4 Aragon cannot take them lightly. Prediction: Aragon
7.Who did Burlingame anger to draw Valley Christian?

Panther fans should take solace in the fact that their team took a painful start to their PAL campaign and turned it into a CCS appearance. But man, what a tough draw for the boys in red. Valley Christian is one of those team that could have easily opted to CCSs Open Division. But with their decision to stay put, they easily became the favorites to win in Division III. The Panthers will have to contend with Byron Marshall,

It would be the last lead of the set for the Scots. A Carlmont hitting error tied the score at 10 and a set error by the Scots gave the Bears a 11-10 advantage which kick-started a 16-2 game-ending run for the Bears to give them the 25-12 win. Pauli King, Sarah Collins and Spindt carried the Bears, accounting for 10 of the Bears 13 kills in the set. Carlmont is great team. They caught us off-guard in the second game, Wilson said. Game 3 was the closest of the match as the Bears got a little sloppy, committing their most errors in the match with 12. M-A offset those, however, by coming up with 16 kills. It was also Carlmonts best effort of the match, committing only seven errors in the game. In the end, however, the Bears just had too much repower. Despite the loss, Crader was satised with his teams performance this season, especially considering the Scots had only ve players that had played at the varsity level before the start of the year. They started the season with their rst win over Notre Dame-Belmont in seven years and went on to a second-place nish in Bay Division play. We won more matches than any time in the last ve years, Crader said. We nished better in league than we have in ve years. Overall, (there were) a lot of great accomplishments for these girls. For M-A, it has a couple more goals it wants to accomplish. The Bears would love to win a section title and also advance further in the Northern California tournament than they did last season. They face a tough test in Palo Alto, which is the defending Division I state champion. Were a different team this year. [Palo Alto is] a little bit different from last year, Wilson said. All season long weve made the goal of getting back to the (CCS) nals.

us play bad, said Carlmont coach Chris Crader. When we did play better, they dug everything up. Their defense made it a lot harder to un-frustrate ourselves. The Bears nished with a total of 39 kills on the night, while the Scots managed just 18. Carlmont did not do itself any favors with the number of errors it committed. The Scots gave the Bears 35 points on errors, while MA committed 23. The reality is, their passing beat our serving. Their defense beat our hitters, Crader said. M-A wasted little time in establishing its dominance. The Bears started Game 1 on an 8-1 run and were never seriously threatened. Ali Spindt set the tone for her match-leading 12 kills with four in the rst game. M-A nished the first set with 10 kills, while Carlmont had eight. The difference, however, came in the errors department where the Scots committed 11 to just ve for M-A. We just tried to be mentally focused and prepared, Wilson said. Weve been trying to play a tight game. It appeared the Scots found their game in the second set, jumping out to a quick 3-0 lead. Kallan Bedard and Torika Ramulo each had a kill sandwiched around a M-A error. It was a short-lived lead, however, as the Bears scored the next three points and ve of the next six. A Bears hitting error allowed Carlmont to tie the match at 5, and a Shelby Vance kill and a Bedard ace gave the Scots a 7-5 advantage. Again, Carlmont could not capitalize. The Bears won the next four points to take a 9-7 lead, but the Scots came back with a 3-0 run to take a 10-9 lead.

Syracuse puts Fine on leave after police inquiry

SYRACUSE, N.Y. Just two weeks after Penn State was rocked by a child sex-abuse scandal, ESPN reported Thursday that police were investigating an assistant basketball coach at Syracuse University on allegations of child molestation. Shortly afterward, Syracuse placed longtime assistant coach Bernie Fine on administrative leave in light of the new allegations and the Syracuse City Police investigation, the school said.
We are in the very early stages of an investigation, Sgt. Tom Connellan told The Post-Standard in Syracuse (http://bit.ly/saDgk9). Connellan told the newspaper that police received information on the case Thursday but would not say who provided the information. The university said it had conducted its own investigation and couldnt nd witnesses to corroborate the allegations. Phone calls by The Associated Press to the police were not immediately returned.
ESPN reported that Fine is accused of molesting a former Syracuse ball boy, Bobby Davis, who is now 39. Davis told Outside the Lines that the abuse occurred at Fines home, at Syracuse basketball facilities and on team road trips, including the 1987 Final Four. ESPN said it rst investigated the accusations in 2003, but decided not to run the story because there was no independent evidence to corroborate the allegations. Recently, a second man contacted ESPN, alleging that Fine also molested him.
That person said he decided to come forward after seeing the Penn State coverage. The Post-Standard reported it also investigated the accusers allegations in 2003, but decided against publishing the story because no one else came forward to conrm the accusers account. Fine is in his 35th season as an assistant to coach Jim Boeheim. In a statement by Kevin Quinn, the schools senior vice president for public affairs, Syracuse said it would cooperate with the police
investigation. He said the school was contacted in 2005 by an adult male who told us that he had reported to the Syracuse City Police that he had been subjected to inappropriate contact by an associate mens basketball coach. He said the alleged activity took place in the 1980s and 1990s. We were informed by the complainant that the Syracuse City Police had declined to pursue the matter because the statute of limitations had expired, Quinn said.

Motorcycles take over event center

By Brian Grabianowski
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Custom and designer bikes, a stunt show and much more are going to pack the San Mateo County Event Center Friday through Sunday for the second annual International Motorcycle Show. Were looking forward to seeing how San Mateo is going to take off this year, said show spokesman Mike Caudill. There are going to be lots of new faces. Caudill is an automotive correspondent for Channel 5 and is the founder of Driven Public Relations. One of the events hogging the spotlight is the Dream Pavilion, where show goers will have access to luxurious and exotic motorcycles from all kinds of manufacturers, including Aprilia, Beta, Darwin Motorcycles, Ducati, Erik Buell Racing, Gas Gas and many more. The show is going in a unique and dynamic direction, Caudill said. This show is going to open up consumers to new experiences. Learning Curve is an important aspect of the show as well, as it w i l l
host demo rides where anyone with a class M license can test ride motorcycles on the market. Leslie Porterfield will also speak about the increasing interest of motorcycling among females, as well as appropriate gear and first bikes. Also in attendance will be the Ultimate Builder Custom Bike Show. The custom bike show is expecting to be much larger this time around. There will be a 50 percent increase from last year in the number of entries, said Bill Kay of the Ultimate Builder Custom Bike Show. Four classes of custom bikes will grace the stage, including a Freestyle class (which has no limits), the modified Harley class, sporty performance custom bikes and an all new retro-mod class sporting modified bikes 25 years or older. Its going to be bigger and better. The addition of the new class is going to broaden the show. Good times for all, Kay said. The stunt show will continue to be a highlight of the International Motorcycle S h o w
most likely for years to come, so long as there are hosts like the Smage brothers, known for their stunts and for their recent stint on Americas Got Talent. [The show] was a good experience, very different, Phil Smage said. Great opportunity to branch out and introduce the sport. An awesome experience. Patrick and Phil will perform with nothing less than the outstanding finesse they always exhibit. Hoping to start off on the right foot, Phil and his brother Patrick are sticking with their standard, riddled-with-amazement routine, with a special surprise stunt at the end. Without a doubt these brothers have mastered the motorcycle as they flawlessly bend it to their will. It doesnt matter whether youre a 12-year-old looking at your first bike, or a 65-year-old on his 25th bike, Caudill said. Everyone will be watching in amazement. Without question people are going to stop, watch and look at the whole thing, and really be into it. For more information on the show go to http://www.motorcycleshows.com/sanmateo.

Democrats objection to cuts in benet programs without significant revenue increases. Democratic and Republican members of the supercommittee met separately Thursday, with no sign of progress on a deal. Republicans are becoming increasingly divided over the issue of raising taxes. A growing number of Republicans in Congress say they would support a tax reform package that increases revenues, if it is coupled with signicant spending cuts, enough to reduce the decit by about $4 trillion over the next decade. The so-called go big strategy has been endorsed by a bipartisan group of about 150 lawmakers from the House and Senate. A rival group of 72 House Republicans sent a letter to the supercommittee Thursday, urging members to oppose any tax increases. We must recognize that increasing the tax burden on American businesses and citizens, especially during a fragile recovery, is irresponsible and dangerous to the health of the United States, said the letter, circulated by Rep. Patrick McHenry, R-N.C. Democrats, meanwhile, have panned Toomeys plan, saying the rate reductions would cut taxes for the wealthy so much that taxes on the middle class would have to be raised. They also argue that Toomeys plan would generate less revenue than advertised. They note that Toomeys plan assumes that tax cuts enacted under former President George W. Bush, and extended through 2012 under President Barack Obama, would continue. Toomeys plan would then cut the tax rates even more. Republicans say Toomeys tax overhaul plan would increase tax revenue by $250 billion over the next decade. An additional $40 billion would be raised by using a new measure of ination to adjust the tax brackets each year. Annual adjustments to the tax brackets would be smaller, resulting in more people jumping into higher tax brackets as their incomes rise. The supercommittee has a Wednesday deadline to come up with a plan to reduce government borrowing by at least $1.2 trillion over the next decade. If the panel fails, $1.2 trillion in automatic spending cuts to domestic and military programs would take effect in 2013. Some details of Toomeys plan remain in ux, in part because he is open to changes to help forge an agreement, said the GOP aide, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss private negotiations. The aide conrmed that Toomeys plan is closely modeled after a proposal by three experts at the National Bureau of Economic Research, a private research organization perhaps best known for deciding when recessions begin and end. The three experts are Martin Feldstein, a Harvard University professor who was President Ronald Regans chief economic adviser; Maya MacGuineas, president of the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget; and Daniel Feenberg, a research associate at the bureau. Under their plan, the tax benets from itemizing deductions and excluding employer-provided health insurance from taxable income would be limited to 2 percent of taxpayers adjusted gross income. That means if a taxpayer has an adjusted gross income of $50,000, deductions and exemptions could reduce his or her tax bill by a maximum of $1,000.
19
PLAN
rst time, though aides cautioned that the proposal is still uid. The plan by Sen. Pat Toomey, R-Pa., who serves on the 12-member debt supercommittee, would raise revenue by limiting the tax breaks enjoyed by people who itemize their deductions, in exchange for lower overall tax rates for families at every income level. Taxpayers who already take the standard deduction instead of itemizing about two-thirds of lers could see tax cuts. The one-third of taxpayers who itemize their deductions might nd themselves paying more. The top income tax rate would fall from 35 percent to 28 percent, and the bottom rate would drop from 10 percent to 8 percent. The rates between would be reduced as well. About 50 million households itemized their deductions in 2009, according to the nonpartisan Joint Committee on Taxation. About 35 million households claimed the mortgage interest deduction, and 36 million deducted charitable donations. Nearly 41 million claimed deductions for paying state and local taxes. A GOP congressional aide said the plan is designed to raise taxes on households in the top two tax brackets. That would affect individuals making more than $174,400 and married couples making more than $212,300. Some Republicans say the plan offers a potential breakthrough in deficitreduction talks that have stalled over GOP opposition to tax hikes and
Ford to keep Escape on top with redesign

By Dee-Ann Durbin
DEARBORN, Mich. The Ford Escape is getting a long overdue makeover, ditching its boxy styling for a sleek look that Ford hopes will outshine competitors. It has reason to be condent: Ford Explorer SUV sales are at a four-year high thanks to a similar redesign last year. Ford will unveil the 2013 Escape at the Los Angeles Auto Show Wednesday. It goes on sale early next year. Pricing hasnt been announced, but it will likely start around $25,000. The Escapes boxy prole was looking stale in a market full of newer, more aerodynamic competitors like the Chevrolet Equinox. The new Escape, which was designed in Europe, now has the elegant, tapered look of Fords other new models, including the Fiesta subcompact and Edge crossover. In addition to better styling, customers have been asking for more features and better fuel economy, said Mark Fields, Fords president of the Americas. The more aerodynamic design, along with three updated engine choices, will help improve fuel economy from 28 mpg to as high as 33 mpg. Ford will discontinue the hybrid Escape, noting that its EcoBoost gas engines get better fuel economy than the 31 mpg on the current hybrid.

Use a slotted spoon to remove and discard the onions.
The peppery-licorice flavor of fennel is perfect for complementing the many rich and savory avors of the Thanksgiving table. In this recipe, we combined it with the fresh avor of coriander, the warmth of mustard seeds and the clean avor of celery seeds. Together and married in a quick simmer in hot oil the blend highlights the avor of the turkey without masking it. To save time, the seed mixture can be prepared ahead of time. After the seeds and oil cool, transfer to a glass or small bowl and refrigerate for up to several days. Let warm to room temperature before using. Also, consider doubling the seed and oil mixture. Use half as directed here for the turkey, then blend the remainder with a bit more olive oil, salt, pepper and some lemon juice for a delicious vinaigrette.

Citrus punches up a classic stuffing blend

By Alison Ladnman
For this stufng, we started with a classic combination of sausage and pecans, then elevated those avors with a bit of dried fruit and citrus. The combination of fatty meat and nuts is complemented by the acidity and tang of the orange juice and zest. If dried apricots which add sweetness as well as a pleasant chew dont do it for you, feel free to substitute dried cranberries or cherries.
ORANGE PECAN STUFFING

Start to nish: 45 minutes Servings: 8 10 ounces sweet or hot Italian turkey sausage, casings removed 1/4 cup white wine 2 tablespoons butter 1 large sweet onion, diced 2 stalks celery, diced 1 teaspoon ground coriander 1/4 teaspoon chili powder 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper 1/2 cup diced dried apricots Zest and juice of 1 orange 1 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
If dried apricots which add sweetness as well as a pleasant chew dont do it for you,feel free to substitute dried cranberries or cherries.
6 cups stale bread cubes 3/4 cup toasted chopped pecans 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley Heat the oven to 350 F. Spray a large casserole dish with cooking spray. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, saute the turkey sausage until browned and cooked through, breaking it up as it cooks. Add the wine to the pan and scrape up any browned bits stuck to the bottom of the skillet. Add the butter, onion and celery, then cook until the onion is tender and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the coriander, chili powder, salt, pepper, apricots, and orange zest and juice. Continue to cook for 2 minutes to help develop the avors. Add the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. In a large bowl, combine the bread cubes, pecans, parsley and meat mixture from the pan. Toss until well mixed. Spoon the mixture into the prepared casserole. This can be done up to 2 days in advance (cover with plastic and refrigerate). Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the top is golden and the center of the stufng reaches 165 F.

as a digestive (and a breath freshener). In India, diners chomp on the seeds after a meal. In Italy, fennel bulb is served as a final nibble, sometimes with orange or dried fruits.

A savory choice that is surprisingly sweet

By Michele Kayal
Licorice as a Thanksgiving flavor? Kind of, and its surprisingly good. Its easier and more delicious than you might think. Thats because fennel, as both a seed and a vegetable, can lend a delicate and even sweet anise flavor to the meal from soup to dessert and every dish in between. Thinly shaved, the bright white bulb of raw fennel becomes a crisp, bracing salad or creamy slaw. Braised, it mellows and sweetens, adding depth to dishes like such as mashed potatoes. Roasted, fennel turns caramel brown and sweet as candy, and simmered in a stock it offers complexity that outstrips other aromatics. The great thing about fennel and all anise flavors is they are so kind to other flavors, says Niki Segnit, author of The Flavor Thesaurus. They always make everything taste a little bit more expensive. Fennel seeds are both grassy and sweet. Added to savory ingredients sweet Italian sausage is a classic they add a pop of palate-cleansing lightness. Sprinkled over sweet items, such as roasted carrots, their crunch cuts through the sugar with a delicate spray of anise. Ground into a spice rub, they make the other flavors sing. Theyre punchy, says Andrew Dornenburg, co-author of The

Add 14 ounces of loose sweet Italian fennel sausage meat and saute until browned and cooked through. Stir in a 12-ounce bag of cornbread stuffing and 1 1/2 cups halved red grapes. Proceed with baking the stuffing according to package directions. Serves 8.
The sharp, intensely sour juice of limes adds spunk to sugary items, but we often turn to lemons as the workhorse of the kitchen.
LEMON-ROSEMARY BREADSTICKS
In a small skillet over medium heat, melt 4 tablespoons of butter with the zest of 1vlemon and 2 tablespoons minced fresh rosemary. Cook for 1 minute. On a lightly oured surface, roll out a 20-ounce ball of purchased pizza dough to a 12-by-18-inch rectangle. Cut into 1inch strips. Brush with the lemonrosemary butter, then transfer to a lightly oiled baking sheet, twisting if desired. Allow to rest at room temperature for 20 minutes. Bake for 20 minutes at 350 F. Serves 12.

Delicious roasted sage potato

By Alison Ladman
Mashed potatoes are traditional, but roasted potatoes can be just as delicious. They also can handle more and better seasoning than most mashed recipes. We chose Yukon Gold potatoes for their beautiful golden hue and their creamy texture, but red potatoes or even russets would be a great choice. We also opted for wedges, but you could just as easily cut them into large cubes, or leave baby potatoes whole. And if you simply must have your mashed potatoes, mash these after
they have roasted. The result will be a delicious blend of crunchy and tender. Just add butter and milk until you get the consistency you like.
SAGE ROASTED POTATO WEDGES

Start to nish: 1 hour 10 minutes (10 minutes active) Servings: 12 5 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes 1/4 cup olive oil 1/4 cup minced fresh sage 2 teaspoons salt 1 teaspoon ground black pepper Heat the oven to 350 F. Cut the potatoes into 1/2-inchthick wedges. Use paper towels to
pat the wedges dry, then transfer to a large bowl. Drizzle the potatoes with the olive oil and toss to coat. Sprinkle with the sage, salt and pepper. Toss until evenly coated. Arrange the wedges in a single layer on 2 baking sheets. Roast for 50 to 60 minutes, turning occasionally until the potatoes are evenly browned.

This is not a green bean casserole. And youll be happy for it. We decided to take green beans in a whole new direction this Thanksgiving. Instead of the usual casserole baked variety, we opted for roasting the green beans until they were browned and wrinkled. The addition of sweet brown sugar and tangy rice vinegar highlight the caramelized avors from roasting. Want to take them even further? Top them with chopped cooked bacon.
OVEN-CANDIED GREEN BEANS AMANDINE

Start to nish: 40 minutes Servings: 8 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt 1 teaspoon ground black pepper 1 tablespoon olive oil 3 pounds trimmed green beans 2 tablespoons rice vinegar 1/4 cup sliced toasted almonds Heat the oven to 350 F. Line 2 large rimmed baking sheets with foil. You need to have enough space to spread out the green beans out. In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, salt and pepper. In a large bowl, toss the oil with the green beans until they are lightly but thoroughly coated. Add the brown sugar mixture and toss to coat. Spread the green beans on the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 30 minutes, or until the beans are well wrinkled. Sprinkle the beans with the vinegar. Arrange in a serving bowl and top with the toasted almonds.

Another Thanksgiving pie mincemeat
Its important to keep Thanksgiving dinner a rich affair from start to nish. Thats why we decided to skip the usual pumpkin pie in favor of a thick mincemeat crumb-topped pie jammed with dried fruit, spices and citrus zest. The result is a dessert that is both lightly sweet and richly spicy. A hit of balsamic vinegar helps balance the natural sugars of the fruit. To help with your holiday prep, this pie is easily made the day ahead. Let it come to room temperature before serving, or heat it briey in the oven. Want to take it over the top? Add a dollop of whipped cream to each serving. Or if you serve it hot, try it with vanilla ice cream.

2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar 1/2 teaspoon salt For the pie: 1/2 cup all-purpose our 1/4 cup sugar 1/2 teaspoon orange zest 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest Pinch of salt 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted 1 prepared (raw) 9-inch pie crust To make the lling, in a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the apples, raisins, currants, ginger, cranberries, cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, orange and lemon zests and juices, brown sugar, vinegar and salt. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes. The mixture should be thick and jammy. Heat the oven to 350 F. In a medium bowl, stir together the our, sugar, orange zest, lemon zest and salt. Drizzle in the melted butter and stir. It should be crumbly. If it isnt already in a pan, use the pie crust to line a 9-inch pie pan, then place that on a baking sheet. Spoon the prepared lling into the pie crust and smooth the top. Sprinkle the citrus crumb mixture evenly over the top. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the crust and topping are golden brown.

Leave the Turkey Day math to us

Thanksgiving is stressful enough without also having to break out the calculator and suffer through math class ashbacks. So leave the calculating to us and use this holiday cheat sheet to make your life and cooking a little easier. This way you can focus on your family, friends and good eats without having to worry your way through culinary equations. All serving estimates are generous to allow for plenty of seconds and leftovers.
For 8 people, buy a 12-pound turkey For 10 people, buy a 15-pound turkey For 12 people, buy an 18-pound turkey For 14 people, buy a 20-pound turkey
THE BIG THAW

The safest way to thaw a frozen turkey is in the refrigerator. Youll need about 24 hours per 4 to 5 pounds of turkey. You also can put the turkey in a sink of cold water. Change the water every 30 minutes, and plan for about 30 minutes per pound.
HOW BIG?
For turkeys under 16 pounds, estimate 1 pound per serving (this accounts for bone weight). For larger birds, a bit less is ne; they have a higher meat-to-bone ratio. But if your goal is to have ample leftovers, aim for 1 1/2 pounds per person whatever the turkeys size.
THE BRINE
Never brine a turkey for more than about 8 to 10 hours. Much longer and the meat will be too salty. Always keep the bird refrigerated during brining. If the turkey is too big, an icelled cooler stored outside works, too.
THE ROAST
temperatures at the same time. You also could brine the turkey (which plumps the meat with moisture before it goes into the oven). But McGee says to beware the tradeoffs. While brining will yield a juicy breast, it also will give you over-salted stuffing and pan juices. It depends on what you want out of your turkey, he says.
Roasting temperatures vary widely by recipe. Some go at a slow and steady 325 F. Others crank the heat to 400 F or 425 F for the rst hour, then drop it down for the rest of the time. However you roast, use an instant thermometer inserted at the innermost part of the thigh (without touching bone) to determine when your turkey is done. The meat needs to hit 165 F for safe eating, though some people say thigh meat tastes better at 170 F. The following roasting time estimates are based on a stuffed turkey cooked at 325 F. Reduce cooking time by 20 to 40 minutes for turkeys that are not stuffed. And remember, a crowded oven cooks more slowly, so plan ahead if your bird needs to share the space. 12-pound turkey: 3 to 4 hours at 325 F 15-pound turkey: 4 to 4 1/2 hours at 325 F 18-pound turkey: 4 1/2 to 5 hours at 325 F 20-pound turkey: 5 to 6 hours at 325 F usually results in abby skin, so kiss that crisp skin goodbye.
THE REST
The turkey should never go directly from the oven to the table. Like most meat, it needs to rest at least 20 minutes before serving for the juices to redistribute.
THE SIDES
Carrots: a 1-pound bag makes 4 to 5 servings Cranberry sauce: a 12-ounce package of fresh cranberries makes about 2 1/4 cups of sauce; a 16-ounce can has 6 servings Gravy: plan for 1/3 cup of gravy per person Green beans: 1 1/2 pounds of beans makes 6 to 8 servings Mashed potatoes: a 5-pound bag of potatoes makes 10 to 12 servings Stufng: a 14-ounce bag of stufng makes about 11 servings bles will retain more vitamins when cooked in the microwave, which McGee says quickly breaks down the enzymes that degrade vitamins. But reheating is a different matter. Potatoes, for instance, will rapidly taste stale after cooking, McGee says, making them lousy candidates for reheating. Sweet potatoes, on the other hand, do just ne.
DINNER
Leave it to a scientist to crack that code. McGees suggestion? Chill the turkey breasts with ice packs before the bird goes in the oven. This is easy to do. Turkeys should be brought to room temperature before roasting, but leave the breasts covered with ice packs during that time. You put the bird in the oven with a temperature differential already built in, McGee says. That way, the legs and the breasts reach their different (and ideal)
Mashed potatoes
So long as you treat them gently, it doesnt matter what kind of potato you use. If you just mash them barely, what you end up with are intact little cells and clumps of cells that are surrounded by a wonderful mixture of butter and milk and whatever else youve added, McGee says. If you break the cells open, thats when you release the starch inside the cells...Thats when you get that gloppy, sticky result.
Other Thanksgiving pointers: Basting

Trade off time again. The good news is that basting slows the cooking of the bird. This gives you a better chance of catching the turkey at just the right temperature. But it also
Weigh, dont measure

Get this: a tablespoon of table salt weighs twice as much as a tablespoon of kosher salt. So replace your measuring spoons and cups with a scale. And, while youre at it, pick up a digital thermometer. Especially on Thanksgiving, that will help you get the leg and breast meat done just right, McGee says.

CUTS
states Legislative Analysts Office warned of the double-whammy of declining revenue and a shaky state economy which blew holes in summer projections that there would be a $4 billion increase in tax revenue through this scal year. The summer budget deal called for the trigger cuts if those projections were not met, and up to $1.4 billion of those cuts could land on the desks of school ofcials across the state. For local schools, that could mean cuts of an additional $181 per student, according to County Superintendent Anne Campbell. Year after year, our K-12 schools have been forced to make drastic budget cuts due to Californias nancial woes. Its hard to imagine how school districts will absorb the pending trigger cuts, especially in the middle of a school year. Its even more difcult to imagine how our schools will balance their budgets for 2012-13 when the LAO already projects Californias decit at $13 billion, Campbell said. Many districts already made contingency plans for the revenue shortfall, which means the mid-year loss may be absorbed without much pain. However, districts are contending with the potential of future losses differently. For the last three years, weve planned for the worst-case scenario and for continued uncertainty, said Molly

Other impacts
The Human Services Agency is having no direct hits in this round although it has certainly absorbed multi-year funding reductions across the board, said spokeswoman Amanda Kim. A similar thought was echoed by the Health System which has already experienced signicant state and county cuts the past few years but has nothing of that level pending for the new year, said spokeswoman Robyn Thaw. Statewide, the ofces of district attorneys will lose $15 million in grants earmarked for vertical prosecutions which assign a single prosecutor to a case for its duration. San Mateo Countys ofce takes very little funding from the state, including those grants which means it stands to lose very little, said District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe. Last year, the ofce received $39,000 in vertical prosecution grants. For 2011-12, the ofce already received $33,000 meaning even with the trigger cuts there will not be a loss in the upcoming scal year. Former district attorney Jim Fox preferred to take little from the state so that the ofce was not left in the lurch when funding went away and Wagstaffe said he is currently upholding the approach. class sizes and cut back on transportation, after-school and extra-curricular programs, said Martha Fluor, president of the California School Boards Association. Staff salaries and benets make up 80 percent to 90 percent of most district budgets, leaving few other places to cut. Theyre going to have to give us either emergency legislation to take the steps to avoid insolvency ... or impose mandatory furloughs, Fluor said Thursday. Weve got school districts that are teetering on the brink. At least 143 of Californias 1,032 school districts are considered in nancial jeopardy based on scal reviews by the state Department of Education. Legislative Analyst Mac Taylor said the effect of the automatic spending cuts, which would occur after the rst of the year, could vary dramatically from district to district because some planned their school budgets in anticipation of further cuts. The city is not sure whether Conger will ne it going back to the date of the decision or the date of the actual violation back in 2009. James Benjamin, a former Half Moon Bay planning commissioner, was the plaintiff in the case. The ditch cleanup was done by California Conservation Corps workers and Benjamin led suit in 2010 alleging the city and the Conservation Corps workers violated federal and state protection laws by not securing the proper permits. The city lost another court case in 2007 related to the botched Beachwood development. It is currently paying nearly $1 million a year in bond repayments to settle the $18 million court ruling. position will be a Foster City employee. The council will vote on the agreement at its Monday night meeting. The agreement can also be amended to allow for more shared positions including two battalion chiefs, re prevention staff and other administrative staff as recommended by the re chief in the future. The Foster City Council has conceptually approved a 36-month plan that phases in shared re department positions over the next three years. The council meets 6:30 p.m., Monday, Nov. 21, City Hall, 620 Foster City Blvd., Foster City.
County probation
For youth served by the countys Probation Department, it means the loss of $1.6 million because California counties will lose $72 million that pays for housing of serious juvenile offenders. San Mateo County keeps most of its minor wards local and only have 13 juveniles in state facilities, said Chief Probation Ofcer Stuart Forrest. However, housing costs about $125,000 per youth, Forrest said. That is just a tremendous hit for us, Forrest said. The Probation Department already lost employees and funding due to county budget cuts and shuttered key programs like the all-girls Camp Kemp. All but two of the 13 in state facilities are over 18 so Forrest said the department in the next week will speak with want to cut teacher and staff pay to achieve a shorter school year or make emergency layoffs. The last-minute bill, which the Democratic governor signed into law, was backed by the California Teachers Association. At the time, Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg, D-Sacramento, defended the legislation as an effort to protect education jobs. Browns nance director, Ana Matosantos, said the state wanted to prevent school districts from acting on the so-called trigger cuts before they needed to. The California School Boards Association said unless lawmakers repeal the law or enact legislation to automatically reduce the school year, districts will have few options to quickly adjust to billions of dollars in cuts coming in the middle of the school year. Many school districts already are in nancial hardship after years of successive cuts in which they have increased to clear the ditch and apparently chain saws and weed whackers are not considered hand tools, Alifano said. The city should have obtained a Coastal Development Permit to do the work, Conger wrote in her ruling. She did write, however, that habitat damage from the project was relatively minor. One would assume she would impose a moderate penalty based on that statement, Alifano said. Alifano is hoping to see a ne in the $5,000 to $10,000 range. Since the violations occurred more than two years ago, however, the ne could be much more, depending on Congers decision. If it is an extreme penalty, we would likely appeal, he said. The city has taken a measured approach in seeking the changes, said Councilman Rick Wykoff. Theres no rush. Weve done this in a managed way. I think we all feel this is the appropriate way to go, Wykoff said. One day, San Mateo and Foster City could operate under a single re department, Wykoff said. Sharing Belville has been a phenomenal success, said Councilman Charles Bronitsky. It is about saving money while keeping a good level of service, he said. The re chief and deputy re chief positions will be considered San Mateo employees while the battalion chief
BUDGET
$88.4 billion the governor and state lawmakers had assumed when they approved the state budget last summer. That shortfall would translate into $2 billion in automatic cuts that were part of the budget deal, most of which would fall on public schools. But cutting the school year quickly could prove challenging unless lawmakers agree to revisit a law also passed last year that was intended to protect teachers jobs, as some school administrators would like them to. While lawmakers gave school districts the option of trimming the school year to as few as 168 days a year, Democrats in the Legislature also approved a bill that protected their labor allies. It requires districts to negotiate with unions if they

Residents along Kehoe Avenue had been complaining to the city for a long time that the clogged drain was ooding their yards, Alifano said. The city was trying to do the right thing by clearing the ditch, Alifano said. Workers should have used hand tools

the past two years. Sharing re services with San Mateo is one way the city has reduced its expenditures. My commitment is to balance the budget by 2013, said Councilwoman Pam Frisella. We should be open to anything when it comes to reducing costs. In the poor economy, she said, jobs are at stake without prudent planning.
