BEVERLY HILLS Gov. Jerry
Brown knows California is ailing,
but hes not sharing many details on
how he plans to x it.
The Golden State is home to the
nations second-highest unemploy-
ment rate, troubled public schools,
o v e r f l o wi n g
prisons and a
Legislature para-
lyzed by politi-
cal bickering.
Its been lurch-
ing from budget
crisis to budget
crisis, while fac-
ing tens of bil-
lions of dollars
in future costs for public-sector
retirees that it doesnt have the
money to pay.
The veteran Democratic politi-
cian acknowledged the challenges
in a rambling discussion at a think-
tank conference Thursday, but
mostly balked when it came to
specics.
Brown said he will propose a pen-
sion x soon that could go to voters,
after earlier attempts stalled.
I dont want to give you an exact
date, but we are working on it, he
said.
He said schools are desperate for
money, but alluded only vaguely to
new taxes. He talked in broad
strokes about trimming government
regulation.
At one point was asked, What
wagons might we need to burn?
Brown answered, There are
plenty of wagons to burn but Im
not telling you today. I dont want to
let them know that we are coming.
Brown is nearing the end of his
rst year in ofce, after being elect-
ed in 2010 to his second stint as
governor of the nations most popu-
lous state. He served two terms

More youth are taking to the ice
as hockey is becoming more main-
stream in San Mateo County. And
while gure skaters still rule the ice
locally, more and more girls are tak-
ing interest in hockey, causing the
countys three ice rinks to expand
their ice-skating offerings.
Numbers are up at the Ice Center
at San Mateo the past year and the
company is looking to extend anoth-
er ve-year option on its lease at the
Bridgepointe Shopping Center, said
Chris Hathaway, the ice centers
chief operating ofcer.
In Belmont, Iceland has been in
business since 1956 and owns the
land on Old County Road the rink
sits on, said Ben Blandford, director
of skating.
Numbers typically pick up in win-
ter, Blandford said, and numbers
have grown in all segments, includ-
ing public skating, hockey, gure
skating, broomball and its learning-
to-skate programs.
A third rink, Nazareth Ice Oasis in
Redwood City on Bay Road, offers

A rally will go on as planned
today despite the fact a local activist
group incorrectly thought a bridge
crossing State Route 92 was unsafe
based on an old federal report.
The Mid-Peninsula American
Dream Council, in solidarity with
the Occupy Wall Street movement,
wants Congress to put more money
toward xing the countrys ailing
infrastructure and will rally at a
bridge in San Mateo today at
Alameda de las Pulgas to show how
federal stimulus money can be used
for job creation while making need-
ed repairs to the nations aging roads
and bridges.
The trouble is, the bridge the
group will rally at today is not
structurally decient as it thought
it was.
The bridge, in fact, is safe,
according to Caltrans.
But the group will rally at the
bridge today anyway, said Cilla
Raughley, spokeswoman for the
local Dream Council.
It is too late to change the rallys
location, she said.
The news the bridge is safe
makes it less than an ideal loca-
tion to hold the rally, Raughley told
the Daily Journal yesterday.
But the nations infrastructure still
needs to be xed, that fact has not

Police: Driver ipped
license plate to save toll
NEW YORK A Virginia truck driver
used a device that could have come from
a James Bond movie to try to get out of
paying the $65 toll to cross the George
Washington Bridge into New York City,
police say.
Nelson Vaquiz of Beaverdam, Va., was
arrested on charges of using a cable in his
truck cab to ip up his front license plate
while going through a gateless toll lane on
Interstate 95 without a toll transponder,
the Port Authority of New York and New
Jersey said Thursday. Vaquiz had also
bent up his rear plate so it couldnt be read
by cameras, police said.
Truck drivers have complained about
steep toll increases that the Port Authority
says it needs to nish building the new
World Trade Center. By 2016, a ve-axle
truck will have to pay $105 to cross the
bridge.
Some drivers zip through the gateless
express lanes while obscuring their
license plates so the Port Authority cannot
track them down and bill them. These toll
cheats cost the Port Authority $14 million
in 2009 and 2010.
Our police department takes this very
seriously and are on the lookout for such
maneuvers, Port Authority spokesman
Ron Marsico said. Hopefully this will
serve as a lesson.
Vaquiz went through the E-ZPass lane
on the New Jersey side of the bridge with
a truck carrying pipes at 6:35 a.m.
Saturday, police said.
A Port Authority police ofcer saw
Vaquizs license plate drop back into
place and ordered the driver to pull over,
but he did not stop, Marsico said. Other
ofcers forced him to stop before he could
go over the bridge, Marsico said.
Police impounded the truck. Vaquiz, 36,
was charged with theft of service, posses-
sion of burglar tools and eluding arrest.
He was released on bail.
Calls to his business phone in
Beaverdam were not answered.
The arrest was rst reported by the New
York Post.
The Port Authority says trafc over its
Hudson River crossings has plummeted
because of the economy and it needs the
additional money to complete the new
World Trade Center and to make
upgrades to its bridges and on-ramps.
On Sept. 18, cash tolls for a ve-axle
truck rose from $40 to $65, and they will
continue to rise gradually to $105 on
Dec. 6, 2015.
Monster director
Jenkins takes on Thor 2
LOS ANGELES Hollywood has
signed up its rst female director for a
major superhero movie.
Marvel Studios announced Thursday
that Patty Jenkins will direct Thor 2, the
sequel to last summers hit that is due in
theaters Nov. 15, 2013.
Jenkins is best-known for writing and
directing 2003s Monster, which earned
Charlize Theron the best-actress
Academy Award. Her credits also include
episodes of Entourage and Arrested
Development.
Chris Hemsworth will reprise his title
role in Thor 2 as the Norse god of thun-
der, with co-stars Natalie Portman and
Tom Hiddleston also returning.
The rst Thor, directed by Kenneth
Branagh, took in $448 million worldwide.
Another female filmmaker, Lexi
Alexander, made the lower-budgeted
Marvel movie The Punisher: War
Zone in 2008. But Jenkins is the rst
woman to direct a blockbuster superhero
franchise.
Doctor: Drug cocktail
killed Michael Jackson
LOS ANGELES Dr. Conrad
Murrays use of a cocktail of drugs on
Michael Jackson as he struggled to fall
asleep on the day he died was a recipe for
disaster and ultimately caused his death,
a UCLA sleep therapy expert testied
Thursday.
Dr. Nader Kamanger described
Murrays treatment as unethical, disturb-
ing and beyond comprehension.
Under questioning by Murrays attor-
ney, J. Michael Flanagan, the witness was
asked to tell jurors what he knew about
the events of June 25, 2009, the day of
Jacksons death.
To summarize, Mr. Jackson was
receiving very inappropriate therapy in a
home setting, receiving very potent thera-
pies without monitoring, Kamanger said.
He said diazepam (Valium), lorazepam
(Ativan) and midazolam (Versed) were
given to the sleepless star during a 10-
hour period throughout the night and
morning.
This cocktail was a recipe for disaster,
Kamanger said.
Noting the addition of propofol
(Dipravan), a powerful anesthetic used in
surgeries, Flanagan asked: Could this
have caused death?

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A convicted sex offender who served seven
months in jail for stashing child pornography
on his home computer pleaded not guilty to
committing similar crimes and violating
parole by being arrested.
Kent Ping Lin, 25, of San Mateo, is
charged with one count of child pornogra-
phy. After entering his plea, Lin was sched-
uled for trial Feb. 27.
In August, county probation officers arrest-
ed Lin after a search of his Sugarloaf Drive
home reportedly turned up child pornogra-
phy on his home computer. Aside from pos-
session being a crime on
its own, the charge also
violates Lins probation
which also requires him to
register as a sex offender,
to seek treatment and to
stay away from minors,
schools and adult book-
stores.
He was sentenced last
December to seven
months in jail and three years of supervised
probation for felony child pornography pos-
session and misdemeanor drug possession.
San Mateo police had zeroed in on Lin after
federal investigators tipped them off in 2009
that he was purchasing child porn from vari-
ous websites. A search of the San Mateo
home last year where he lived with his par-
ents turned up a computer containing dozens
of photographs of girls 7 to 10 years old
involved in sex acts with men, according to
prosecutors.
Before Lin stands trial in the new case, he
also heads back to court Jan. 27 for a hearing
on the alleged probation violation. Even if
Lin is found not guilty of the new child
pornography possession, the violation can be
found true based on his arrest.
Lin remains in custody without bail.

SAN FRANCISCO Service at an
Oakland train station was restored Thursday
morning and an investigation was under way
after an Amtrak train crashed into another
train that was unloading passengers, injuring
17 people.
Several people were taken to local hospi-
tals after Wednesday nights crash, but all
the injuries were considered minor and non-
life-threatening, officials said.
The company said both main-line tracks
reopened Thursday morning but passengers
should expect minimal delays through the
morning hours.
The train was traveling an estimated 15 to
20 mph when it struck the stationary
Amtrak train around 10 p.m., Oakland Fire
Department battalion chief Emon Usher
said.
Usher said company officials told him the
train went through a red light.
According to the Amtrak representative,
the train traveling should have never contin-
ued past the red signal, Usher told the
Associated Press.
Amtrak spokesman Cliff Cole said he
could not comment on the report of the train
running a red light.
He described the crash as a low-speed
collision between Amtraks San Joaquin, a
train that operates between Bakersfield to
Oakland, and Amtraks Coast Starlight, a
train from Los Angeles to Seattle.
He said the wheels of each lead engine
went off the track.
Amtrak and the owner of the tracks, Union
Pacific Freight Railroad, plan to work with
federal officials to investigate the crash,
according to Amtrak.
Authorities originally reported 16 injuries
in the crash, but the company arrived at the
higher figure after compiling numbers
overnight, Cole said.
Alton Smith, a passenger on one of the
trains, told television station KTVU he felt
an awful jolt from the impact.
Another person, identified by television
station CBS5 as Miesha Anderson, told the
station she heard a big bang, like a bomb.
She told the station she thought a forklift
had hit the train.
We didnt even think that another train
had hit the train, she said.
A couple of hours after the crash, about 50
passengers were gathered inside the train
terminal, talking to Amtrak officials, while
Amtrak and local officials inspected the two
trains.
Passengers who paid for travel on can-
celed trains can contact Amtrak to receive a
refund without fee or penalty, the company
said.
The crash is the second significant inci-
dent in two weeks in the San Francisco East
Bay area where there were injuries to
Amtrak passengers.
On Sept. 30, 37 passengers and two crew
members suffered minor to moderate
injuries when an Amtrak passenger train col-
lided with a truck at a crossing near
Brentwood where there were no lights or
gates.
The driver of the truck and a passenger
inside were not hurt.

Obituary
County insurance program awarded childrens pilot funds
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Nearly 2,000 children with chronic health
needs could get faster and better coordinated
care as part of a state-funded pilot project
administered by the countys low-income
health insurance plan.
The Health Plan of San Mateo learned this
week it is one of five regional health care
organizations awarded state contracts to
improve care for children with special health
needs like cancer, congenital heart disease
and spina bifida.
Children up to age 21 with these and other
certain disease or health problems are served
through the California Childrens Services
program that connect families with special-
ized medical personnel.
The local project focuses on making it eas-
ier for these children to get the varied care
they need.
The Department of Health Care Services,
which presented the awards, didnt disclose
specific amounts allocated but said they are
all part of the Californias Bridge to
Reform program which uses $10 billion in
federal Medicaid matching funds to expand
coverage.
Other pilot projects will launch in
Alameda, Imperial, Los Angeles, Orange and
San Diego counties.
Health Plan of San Mateo currently has
approximately 95,000 enrollees. Roughly
1,800 to 1,850 children will be enrolled in
the pilot, according to the Health Plans esti-
mates.
The plan will use its existing managed care
system to improve its childrens services
through an integrated, family-centered care
delivery and coordination system. Rather
than have care fragmented into primary, spe-
cialty and ancillary services, the Health Plan
will approach the whole child to cover phys-
ical, social and psychological needs.
Creating a unified process also saves
money and time. HPSM staff estimate having
25 percent to 50 percent more time to coor-
dinate care for children enrolled in the plan.
By reducing administrative hurdles, well
be able to focus on what we do best help-
ing our members, said HPSM Medical
Director Dr. Mary Giammona.
Specifically, the Health Plan and all the
projects will offer more effective and effi-
cient health care to some of the states most
medically vulnerable children, said DHCS
Director Toby Douglas in an announcement
of the pilot project contracts.
Health Plan San Mateo CEO Maya Altman
said credit is also due to other organizations
for making its proposed project a reality.
Lucile Packard Childrens Hospital,
Community Gatepath, the Golden Gate
Regional Center, the County Office of
Education and UCSF wrote letters on the
plans behalf.
We couldnt have done it without their
support, Altman said.
The pilots are slated to begin in January
using existing state and federal funding. The
pilots will serve approximately 15,000 to
20,000 children but future expansion of the
programs could mean better care for all
185,000 children enrolled in CCS, according
to DHCS.

The cause of the crash is still being investigated.
Local brief
By Andrew Taylor
WASHINGTON House
Speaker John Boehner and
President Barack Obama talked
about jobs legislation Thursday in a
10-minute phone call today, the
Ohio Republicans ofce said.
Boehner told Obama that
Republicans are willing to address
new transportation and infrastruc-
ture spending but in a fiscally
responsible way.
The Boehner-Obama conversa-
tion took place as Senate
Republicans introduced legislation
aimed at creating jobs by overhaul-
ing the nations tax laws, cutting
business rules and boosting offshore
oil exploration.
The GOP bill is called the Jobs
T h r o u g h
Growth Act
and doesnt
include a single
item in
P r e s i d e n t
B a r a c k
Obamas jobs
l e g i s l a t i o n ,
which Senate
Re p u b l i c a n s
killed in a Tuesday night vote.
They believe that government
and spending creates jobs, said
Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz. We
believe business and growth creates
jobs.
The GOP plan calls for repealing
Obamas health care law and pass-
ing a constitutional amendment
requiring a balanced budget.
This is a pro-growth proposal to
create the environment for jobs,
said Sen. Rob Portman, R-Ohio.
And thats as opposed to the short-
term, sweetener approach of the
Obama administration that simply
hasnt worked.
The Senate plan resembles a jobs
package assembled by Portman ear-
lier this year and a proposal that
House Republicans released back in
May.
We have to be for something,
said Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C.
The latest release came as
Democrats are trying to mount an
offensive on the jobs issue.

SACRAMENTO The
California attorney generals ofce
has been considering a major
restructuring to make white collar
and cybercrimes its priority after
state budget cuts targeted units that
focus on gang and drug enforce-
ment, according to a draft strategy
document obtained by the
Associated Press.
The internal department proposal
says units that
work with local
governments on
anti-gang efforts
and drug crimes
would be elimi-
nated as a way to
address an esti-
mated $71 mil-
lion in budget
cuts over the
next two fiscal years. Attorney
General Kamala Harris, a Democrat
elected last year, is seeking to have
the money restored or, failing that,
wants the Legislature to give her
more exibility in how to imple-
ment the budget cuts.
The draft white paper proposes
that Harris reorganize the ofce to
place a priority on increasingly
complex areas of criminal activity
ranging from mortgage fraud to
cybercrime.
The document was created as a
response to a $35 million cut in the
current scal year budget signed in
June by Gov. Jerry Brown and a
similar cut projected for the scal
year that will start next July 1.

saries, her office told the

U.S. Attorney Laura Duffy made
the comments initially to California

They come a week after she and
three other U.S. attorneys in
California vowed to close medical
marijuana businesses they deem
questionable and single out people
who rent buildings or land to the

Police after men
who robbed inn
Millbrae police are searching for
two men who robbed the La Quinta
Inn Sunday night armed with semi-
automatic handguns. The suspects
entered the inn at about 11:30 p.m.
and brandished their weapons at the
clerk and demanded money, accord-
ing to police. The clerk advised the
suspects of the moneys location and
they made off with about $1,500,
according to police.
The rst suspect is described as
black, 5 feet 8 inches tall, 140
pounds, wearing a black-hooded
sweatshirt, black baseball cap with
red rim and black jeans. The second
suspect is described as black, 5 feet 7
inches tall, 130 pounds, wearing a
black-hooded sweatshirt, black cap
and black jeans. Both are thought to
be in their 20s, according to police.
Anyone with information on the
incident should contact Millbrae
police at (650) 259-2300.
Teen trio plead not
guilty to beating gang rival
Three teenage alleged Norteo
gangmembers accused of attacking a
rival with sticks, bricks and a pellet
gun because he was scheduled to tes-
tify in court about a previous assault
pleaded not guilty.
Alvaro J. Davila and Rudy Perez,
both 17, and Jorge Prieto Quevedo,
16, did not waive their right to a
speedy prosecution and will stand
trial Nov. 14.
The three were arrested April 15 in
a San Mateo apartment where police
said they heard them discussing the
attack before they entered the unit.
According to authorities, the victim is
a Sureo gangmember who had been
attacked in the past and was sched-
uled to appear in court about one of
the incidents. The defendants are not
the gangmembers who assaulted the
victim previously, according to pros-
ecutors. The teens are each charged
as adults with dissuading a witness,
threatening a witness, resisting arrest,
four counts of assault with a deadly
weapon and acting to benet a street
gang. They each remain in custody in
lieu of $250,000 bail.
Man arrested for
peeping at 24-Hour Fitness
A Redwood City man who worked
as a janitor at a 24-Hour Fitness in
San Mateo was arrested for peeping
at two women early Wednesday
morning in the female locker room,
according to police.
Two women from South San
Francisco, both in their 20s, told
police they saw a man peeping
behind a locker at them as they n-
ished their workouts just after mid-
night Wednesday.
Police arrested 28-year-old Jose
Albert Soto-Cabrera, a Redwood
City resident, and charged him with a
misdemeanor charge of peeping,
according to San Mateo police.
Three arrested for
residential burglary
Two juveniles and one 19-year-old
Redwood City man are in custody
after trying to burglarize a home on
the 3200 block of Hoover Street in
Redwood City yesterday morning.
At approximately 11:45 a.m., the
three males knocked on the door at
the home and, when the resident did
not answer, entered the yard, forced
open the back door and entered. The
resident confronted the three and got
into a ght with one of them while
the other two ed on foot. The resi-
dent detained the rst suspect and
notied police who found the other
two on the 3200 block of Rolison
Road at 5 p.m., according to police.
The 19-year-old was identied as
Alejandro Cota-Soleto. The juveniles
are 17. All three were arrested for res-
idential burglary, according to police.

SEAL BEACH Ron Sesler was
working the lunch rush at his steak-
house just blocks from the beach in
this seaside town when he heard a
rapid pop, pop, pop sound that he
at first thought was construction
noise.
But when a frantic woman burst
through the restaurant and into the
kitchen, screaming Theyre shoot-
ing people, theyre shooting people!
he knew it wasnt jackhammers.
Over the next nightmarish min-
utes, Sesler watched as hairstylists
and customers from the next-door
Salon Meritage streamed into his
restaurant seeking refuge from the
rampage. Hysterical stylists still
wearing their smocks with hair clips
in the pockets and customers
halfway through dye jobs and per-
manents piled inside Pattys Place
as Sesler locked
the door and his
wife frantically
dialed 911.
Police soon
showed up and
used the restau-
rant as a tempo-
rary base to
interview wit-
nesses.
The whole place was lled, it
was whoever survived, said Sesler,
68, still noticeably shaken on
Thursday as he tried to resume busi-
ness as usual. We just locked the
doors and waited for police. It
seemed like a long time minutes
but it was probably seconds.
Minutes after the shooting
Wednesday, police stopped 41-year-
old Scott Dekraai a half-mile from
the scene and arrested him without
incident. Sesler said the witnesses
who came to his restaurant believed
that Dekraais ex-wife, Michelle
Fournier, was the second person
shot in a spree that claimed the lives
of eight people and left one woman
in critical condition.
The only victim not shot inside
the salon was a regular at Pattys
Place and a good friend of Sesler, a
man named David Caouette. He
happened to park directly next to the
gunman and was shot while sitting
in his car talking on his cellphone,
Sesler said.
I saw him sitting there bleeding
before they took him away, he said.
He randomly missed it by three or
four minutes either way. If he was
late, the guy would have driven
away. If he was early, he would have
been in here eating lunch.
Police identified the victims
Thursday as Fournier, Fannin,
Caouette, as well as Victoria Buzzo,
Lucia Kondas, Laura Elody, Christy
Wilson and Michelle Fast.

WASHINGTON A majority of
states intend to take President Barack
Obama up on his offer to let them get
around unpopular requirements in the
No Child Left Behind education
law, the Education Department said
Thursday.
Obama said last month he was frus-
trated that Congress didnt act to
change the law that he has said is
awed, so he was moving forward
with an effort to let qualifying states
circumvent it.
His plan allows states to scrap a key
requirement that all children show
they are procient in reading and
math by 2014. To qualify, the states
must submit a plan showing how they
will meet certain requirements such
as enacting standards to prepare stu-
dents for college and testing for those
standards, and by making teachers
and principals more accountable by
setting guidelines on evaluations.
The Education Department says 37
states, plus the District of Columbia
and Puerto Rico, have notied the
agency that they intend to submit a
plan to get a waiver around the law.
Most states are seeking
exception to education law

Cains nontraditional
strategy unlikely, too?
ATLANTA Reveling in the national
spotlight, Herman Cain is pledging to bolster
his edgling White House campaign.
Hell need to and
quickly if he has any
hope of winning the
Republican nomination.
The unlikely presidential
contender has little cam-
paign organization in
Iowa, New Hampshire
and other states where
voting begins in less than
three months. And he has-
nt done much else in those places to capital-
ize on his recent surge in polls.
We are now going to ramp up, Cain
promised this week.
By that he means executing what aides call
a 50-state strategy for a nomination contest
thats determined state by state.
Obama blames plot to
kill Saudi diplomat on Iran
WASHINGTON President Barack
Obama said Thursday that the U.S. will make
sure that Iranian ofcials are held accountable
for reckless behavior in what he said was
their direct role in an alleged assassination
plot against the Saudi Arabian ambassador in
the United States.
Obama said the U.S. will be able to support
all of its allegations of Iranian involvement.
Those facts are there for all to see, he told a
joint White House news conference with
South Korean President Lee Myung-bak. The
State Department said the United States has
had direct contact with the Iranian govern-
ment about the incident.

NEW YORK Raj Rajaratnam, the hedge
fund billionaire at the center of the biggest
insider-trading case in U.S. history, was sen-
tenced Thursday to 11 years behind bars
the stiffest punishment ever handed out for the
crime.
His crimes and the scope of his crimes
reect a virus in our busi-
ness culture that needs to
be eradicated, U.S.
District Judge Richard J.
Holwell said. Simple jus-
tice requires a lengthy sen-
tence.
The 54-year-old founder
of the Galleon Group
hedge fund was also ned
$10 million and ordered to
forfeit $53.8 million in what the judge said
were illicit prots from trading on condential
corporate information.
Prosecutors said Rajaratnam made as much
as $75 million in all by cultivating a network
of friends, former classmates and other tip-
sters at various companies and investment
rms who supplied him with early word on
such things as mergers and earnings
announcements. In return, they received kick-
backs or a chance to get in on the action.

NEW YORK New York City ofcials
ordered Wall Street protesters to clear their
sleeping bags and tarps from the park where
they started a movement that has spread
around the globe and forced CEOs and presi-
dential candidates to take notice.
Demonstrators said they wouldnt be going
anywhere Friday morning, setting the stage
for a showdown with police.
The owner of the private park where the
demonstrators have camped out for nearly a
month said it has become trashed and unsani-
tary. Brookeld Ofce Properties planned to
begin a section-by-section power-washing of
Zuccotti Park at 7 a.m.
Theyre going to use the cleanup to get us
out of here, said Justin Wedes, a 25-year-old
part-time public high school science teacher
from Brooklyn. Its a de facto eviction
notice.
The demand that protesters clear out sets up
a turning point in a movement that began Sept.
17 with a small group of activists and has
swelled to include several thousand people at
times, from many walks of life. Occupy Wall
Street has inspired similar demonstrations
across the country and become an issue in the
Republican presidential primary race.
The protesters demands are amorphous, but
they are united in blaming Wall Street and cor-
porate interests for the economic pain they say
all but the wealthiest Americans have endured
since the nancial meltdown.

WASHINGTON President Barack
Obama praised a just-completed trade deal
with South Korea on Thursday as he wel-
comed the countrys president to the White
House, offering warm praise for a solid ally
in a world in flux.
At a joint news conference with South
Korean President Lee Myung-bak, Obama
said the long-delayed trade pact approved
late Wednesday by Congress is a win for
both our countries, and that he and Lee had
agreed to move forward with it quickly.
Obama said the deal would increase U.S.
exports by $11 billion and support 70,000
jobs, while opening Koreas market to more
U.S. goods. Alluding to an issue that held up
the deal, Obama said, Im very pleased it
will help level the playing field for
American automakers.
Obama is scheduled to take Lee with him
Friday to the Detroit, Michigan, area, the
center of the U.S. auto industry, to tour a
General Motors plant.
Lee said the trade deal, which still
requires approval from South Koreas legis-
lature, will mark a turning point in the
enduring alliance between our two nations
and called it a historic achievement that
will become a significant milestone.
It is Americas biggest free-trade agree-
ment since the 1994 North American Free
Trade Agreement with Canada and Mexico.
The pact will elevate the U.S.-South Korean
alliance, traditionally defined by their oppo-
sition to communist-governed North Korea.
More than 28,000 U.S. troops remain based
in South Korea as a deterrent.
Lees state visit, which began officially
Thursday morning with a South Lawn
arrival ceremony full of pomp and circum-
stance despite persistent rain, gave Obama a
chance to celebrate a political victory after
going to Seoul last November to announce a
free-trade pact with Lee only to stand
with his ally empty-handed because their
negotiators had been unable to finish the
deal.

PESHAWAR, Pakistan American
drone-fired missiles killed a ranking mem-
ber of the militant Haqqani network on
Thursday in northwestern Pakistan, strik-
ing a group that Washington claims is the
top threat in Afghanistan and is supported
by Pakistani security forces, local intelli-
gence officials said.
A senior U.S. ofcial conrmed the death
of the Haqqani commander, identifying him
as Janbaz Zadran.
The strike came as U.S. special envoy to
Afghanistan and Pakistan Marc Grossman
arrived in Pakistan to improve ties between
Washington and Islamabad that have been
severely strained by stepped-up American
claims of Pakistan assistance to the Haqqanis.
Two other militants were killed in the attack
close in the Haqqani stronghold of North
Waziristan, the groups main sanctuary along
the Afghan border, said the Pakistani ofcials
in the region. The ofcials spoke on condition
of anonymity because they were not author-
ized to speak to reporters.
They said the Haqqani member was a coor-
dinator for the group and knew him as Jalil.
One said he was related to Sirajuddin
Haqqani, the leader of the network. The men
were walking down a street when the two mis-
siles hit, the ofcials said.
The missiles hit close to Dande Darpa Khel
village, which is home to a large seminary
with links to the Haqqanis.
The U.S. ofcial Zadran was the most sen-
ior Haqqani leader in Pakistan to be taken off
the battleeld. The ofcial said Zadran helped
the Haqqani network orchestrate attacks on
troops in Kabul and southeastern Afghanistan.
The ofcial spoke on condition of anonymity
to discuss intelligence matters.

Letters to the editor
T
he city of Burlingame has nancial
challenges like any other city in this
economic environment. Its main
issue is its nances, but its council has taken
appropriate steps to meet the challenge. More
challenges are likely on the horizon, but its
leadership is stable and well represents the
citys diverse citizenry. There are some com-
plaints the City Council takes too long to
make decisions, but that seems to be OK
with the many who seem to appreciate the
councils willingness to incorporate the ideas
and opinions of its citizens when it comes to
providing direction to its staff.
This attitude is likely reected in the mild
election this year. In years past, the city has
had a large number of candidates challenging
the status quo and picking up on decisions
that seem to cast the city in a negative light.
This year, there is one challenger to two
incumbents. Ricardo Ortiz is challenging
Mayor Terry Nagel and Vice Mayor Jerry
Deal for one of two open seats on the coun-
cil. Ortiz has done his homework and has a
rm grasp on the citys issues. His nancial
background and interest in the citys bottom
line is a valuable perspective.
However, the incumbents share his con-
cerns and have the ability to draw on their
experience on the council to lead the city.
Nagel has never wavered from her stance as
one who draws on the community for action
and input. She has a strong belief in the
power and ideas of the citys residents and is
always open to ensuring everyone has a seat
at the table. Thats important for todays
Burlingame. It would be difcult to nd
someone else who works as hard for the city
or who matches Nagels passion for civil
service. A former reporter, she has dogged
determination to nd answers and to question
authority. That is not an act, its in her DNA.
Deal has a wide breadth of experience both
on the council and as a planning commis-
sioner for 13 years. An understanding of
planning issues is critical for a city such as
Burlingame with its diverse types of housing,
retail, hotel and ofce components amidst a
quaint but distinctly suburban setting just
south of the airport and north of Silicon
Valley. Deal understands the citys environ-
ment and has made the citys nances his
focus so that it can afford to provide needed
services to its residents.
All three candidates are against high-speed
rail in its four-track proposal. Nagel champi-
ons using the economic instability of the pro-
posal to determine what the best future for
the transportation in the city and the region
will be.
Nagel and Deal have varied points of view,
but both understand the importance of both
listening to residents, business owners and
others with vested interests in the city and
region while keeping a rm eye on the future
to ensure plans, both specic and general,
will maintain the citys solvency. An example
of this is their understanding of the impor-
tance of seeing the downtown precise plan to
fruition, an important step if the city is to
retain its reputation as a county destination.
Ortiz suggests creating a citizens commis-
sion on nances. Thats a great idea and one
which the current council should seriously
consider as it rises to meet the nancial chal-
lenges of the future. Ortiz would make a
great choice as its charter member. We
encourage him to stay involved but, for now,
the best choices to maintain the citys stabili-
ty are Deal and Nagel.
Selecting the right candidates
Editor,
I have watched and listened to the candidates
running for Foster City Council this year. I
want to thank all candidates for their desire to
serve our community but I am concerned that
some of their unsubstantiated opinions are
coming across as statements of fact.
I urge candidates to make sure they have
done their homework so their statements of
opinions have factual backing. I am concerned
about their lack of information gathering.
Serving on this council is no part-time job and
requires broad-based thinkers and doers. A few
candidates have little information about how
this council has addressed the budget decit
which seems to be the biggest issue. This city
has been well managed which is why we have
few issues to debate. The biggest problem I see
is how to prepare for the unknown impacts on
our city by decisions made in Sacramento.
Voters need to be wary of the typical cam-
paign rhetoric. We need leaders who do their
homework instead of making frivolous state-
ments. We need leaders who understand the
issues and are prepared. My choice is clear to
endorse individuals who have a basis for what
they are saying and who do not use a lot of
election buzzwords and phrases. Art Kiesel,
Steve Okamoto and Jennifer Minkey-Sevitella
have a vision and will be able to hit the ground
running once elected. These are the people to
whom I look to passing the baton.

Foster City Council elections
Editor,
Im happy to see that you recognize the pos-
itive attributes of Steve Okamoto and Art
Keisel as candidates for City Council in the
endorsement editorial Wednesday, Oct. 12
(Kiesel, Okamoto and Perez for Foster City
Council). Im also voting for Jennifer
Selvitella, who has proven she has what it
takes to join Art and Steve as a member of
Foster City Council at this time of economic
uncertainty. Born and raised in Foster City,
Jennifers support of youth sports and PTA
show her commitment to our citys residents
and her business experience in the insurance
eld should be an asset as the city moves for-
ward with new building projects. Steve, Art
and Jennifer will t in well with the other
councilmembers and focus on what needs to
get done with teamwork and respect.
The election of Steve, Jennifer and re-elec-
tion of Art is invaluable to paving a coopera-
tive spirit on the city council to move this city
forward to an even better future.

There ought to be fewer laws
Editor,
There should be a law against contests
designed to create more laws (Simitians citi-
zen law contest enters nal year in the Oct.
10 edition of the Daily Journal).
In the book Utopia, Thomas More wrote:
They [Utopias] have very few laws, as peo-
ple so trained do not need many. The chief crit-
icism they bring against other people is that an
innite number of laws and commentaries is
not enough. The Utopians think it most unjust
that any men should be bound by laws that are
either too numerous to read or too obscure to
understand.
Can anyone say that Senator Simitians
annual contest has not made it more likely that
we will live in a state in which there are more
laws than a citizen can hope to keep track of?

Immigration
reform laws
The Sacramento Bee
A
s Congress and the president fail to
update the nations obsolete immi-
gration laws, states increasingly are
stepping into the vacuum.
The gridlock over immigration law in
Washington has persisted for a generation
and, increasingly, is leading to a patchwork
of ever-harsher laws and ordinances at the
state and local levels, even though immigra-
tion under the U.S. Constitution clearly is a
federal matter.
The spotlight that was on Arizonas dra-
conian law last year now has shifted to
Alabamas even more severe law. ...
A federal judge has rightly overturned
some portions.
This harsh law is driving out legal immi-
grants and even citizens. Kids born in this
country, who are U.S. citizens but may have
an illegal parent, are staying out of school.
Construction workers, roofers, eld hands,
hotel cleaners and restaurant workers who
are in the country legally are leaving their
jobs and the state. No doubt, they feel unwel-
come or may have family members and
friends without the proper papers.
A telling photo shows an angry farmer
telling Alabama state Sen. Scott Beason, who
co-authored the law, that hes unable to har-
vest his tomato crop because farmworkers
havent showed since the new immigration
law took effect.
Georgia, which also passed similar laws,
also scared off many migrant workers and
left crops rotting in the elds. Then it tried to
compel unemployment compensation recipi-
ents to harvest crops, but as news accounts
reported, Workers were too slow and often
quit because of the strenuous labor involved.
...
This latest controversy should provide
more impetus for Congress and President
Barack Obama to take up national immigra-
tion reform that realistically addresses the
need for future ows of immigrants, rather
than simply relegating people to the shadows
of illegal immigration and having states
make up their own immigration laws.
Debit-card fees
The Columbus (Ohio) Dispatch
C
ongress hailed it as a victory for
consumers last year when it decided
to impose price controls on banks,
capping swipe fees they charge merchants
for debit-card transactions.
In reality, what Congress imposed was a
new monthly tax on debit-card users.
Bank of America recently announced it
will charge its debit-card users a $5 monthly
fee in an effort to offset billions of dollars of
revenue lost to Congress intervention. Wells
Fargo, the countrys biggest bank, is testing a
$3 monthly fee for debit cards later this
month. And Chase has piloted a $5 fee in
Wisconsin.
Merchants complained that banks were
gouging them to subsidize other operations,
such as free checking. They insisted govern-
ment should regulate debit fees to reect the
true cost of processing transactions, lowering
prices for retail customers.
As a result, banks anticipate losing billions
of dollars of revenue each year. Such losses,
of course, simply get passed along to con-
sumers who will see real banking-fee
increases. ...
Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn., said telling pri-
vate companies what they can charge for
goods and services amounted to price xing.
The new debit-card fees are another exam-
ple of why government should not pick los-
ers and winners in the marketplace: The like-
liest loser is the consumer.

NEW YORK Stocks sank Thursday,
ending the fastest rally in the S&P 500
since March 2009.
Bank stocks dragged the market lower
after JPMorgan Chase & Co. reported that
a slowdown in investment banking hurt its
results in the third quarter. An afternoon
surge in technology stocks limited some
of the losses.
The Dow Jones industrial average fell
40.72 points, or 0.4 percent, to close at
11,478.13. JPMorgan fell 4.8 percent.
Other banks also fell. Citigroup Inc.
dropped 5.3 percent, Morgan Stanley 4.4
percent and Bank of America Corp. 5.5
percent.
JPMorgan is the rst big U.S. bank to
report earnings. Next week Wells Fargo
& Co., Citigroup Inc. and Morgan
Stanley will report. JPMorgan is widely
considered the strongest U.S. bank, so the
results dont bode well for other nancial
companies, said Jason Lilly, a portfolio
manager at Rockland Trust Investment
Management Group. JPMorgans income
fell 4 percent, hurt by a 31 percent plunge
in investment banking fees.
An afternoon rally in technology stocks
trimmed some of the markets losses.
Yahoo Inc. rose 1 percent as investors
speculated the company might be bought.
Technology stocks in the Standard &
Poors 500 index rose 1 percent, the most
of any industry group in the index. The
technology-focused Nasdaq composite
rose 15.51, or 0.6 percent, to 2,620.24.
Theres a mounting interest in Yahoo
and that has ltered out into tech stocks,
said Quincy Krosby, a market strategist
for Prudential Financial.
There was other encouraging news
from the technology industry. Apple Inc.
rose 1.6 percent a day ahead of the release
of its latest iPhone. Googles third-quarter
earnings, released after the close of trad-
ing, soared past analyst expectations. The
stock jumped 5.4 percent in after-hours
trading.
The Standard & Poors 500 index fell
3.59, or 0.3 percent, to 1,203.66.
Financial stocks fell 2.4 percent, the most
of the 10 company groups that make up
the index.
Investors were also disappointed by a
report that Chinas trade surplus narrowed
for a second straight month in September.
That suggests the Chinese economy is
slowing more than previously thought,
which could hurt demand for exports from
the U.S.
Stocks soared over the past week on
signs that Europe was starting to get a
handle on its nancial crisis. The Standard
& Poors 500 index rose 9.8 from Oct. 3,
when it closed at its lowest level of the
year, through Wednesday.

SAN FRANCISCO Mounting wor-
ries about another global recession
havent shaken Google.
The online search and advertising
leaders third-quarter earnings, released
Thursday, are the latest reminder of how
Googles position as the Internets dom-
inant gateway has spawned a business
that endures economic turbulence better
than most companies.
When I look back at the last quarter,
the word that springs to mind is,
Gangbusters, Google CEO Larry Page
crowed during a Thursday conference
call with analysts.
Investors quickly chimed in with their
approval as Googles stock price surged
more than 6 percent. The stock climbed
$35.94 to $594.93 in extended trading
after the release of results.
The third-quarter numbers painted a
picture of a company operating in a bub-
ble of prosperity amid a sputtering econ-
omy.
Even as a stubbornly high unemploy-
ment rate vexes the U.S., Google added
nearly 2,600 more workers to its payroll
to guarantee that 2011 will be the
biggest hiring year in the companys 13-
year history. Google ended September
with more than 31,500 workers, an
increase of 28 percent, or nearly 7,000
jobs, from the end of last year.
While the U.S. economys growth is
shrinking, Googles is accelerating. The
companys third-quarter revenue of $9.7
billion was 33 percent higher than the
same time last year. It marked the fourth
consecutive quarter that Googles year-
over-year revenue growth has climbed.
Google earned $2.7 billion, or $8.33
per share, in the three months ending in
September.
Googles 3Q wows investors
GOOGLE STILL THRIVING: The
Internet search and advertising
leaders third-quarter results made it
seem like Google Inc. is operating in
an isolated bubble of prosperity amid
mounting fears of another global
recession. The companys earnings
climbed 26 percent to $2.7 billion
while revenue rose 33 percent to $9.7
billion.Google also hired nearly 2,600
workers.
SO FAR SO GOOD: Its the second
straight quarter that Google has
blown past analyst forecasts since
founder Larry Page replaced Eric
Schmidt as CEO in April.
INVESTORS APPROVE: Googles
stock price surged more than 6
percent in extended trading after the
numbers came out.
Impressive 3Q
By Marcy Gordon
WASHINGTON Democratic law-
makers are asking the Justice Department
to investigate whether Bank of America
and other major banks improperly
worked together to charge customers new
monthly fees for using their debit cards.
Rep. Peter Welch, D-Vt., and four other
Democrats said Thursday that theyve
asked Attorney General Eric Holder to
see if big banks violated antitrust laws
before announcing the fees.
Welch said the lawmakers have no evi-
dence of collusion. But he said the timing
of the fees merits an investigation.
You dont have a competitive market-
place, Welch said at a news conference.
Bank of America said last month that it
would charge its customers $5 a month if
they use their debit cards for purchases.
Customers who use their cards only at
ATMs will not have to pay the fee.
Chase and Wells Fargo are also testing
$3 monthly debit-card fees in select mar-
kets.
SunTrust, a regional bank based in
Atlanta, began charging a $5 debit card
fee in June for customers with basic
checking accounts. Regions Financial,
based in Birmingham, Ala., started charg-
ing a $4 fee on Oct. 1 for accounts that
dont meet higher balance requirements.
The fees have sparked public outrage
and helped fuel anti-Wall Street protests.
Many have criticized the banks for charg-
ing to use debit cards after those same
banks received hundreds of billions of
dollars in taxpayer-funded bailouts. Bank
of America, Chase, Wells Fargo,
SunTrust and Regions were among the
recipients of rescue funds.
Bank of America, the nations largest
bank, said the monthly charge was neces-
sary because the Federal Reserve this
year capped the fees that it can charge
merchants for swiping debit cards.
Congress directed the Fed cap swipe fees
under the nancial overhaul law.
Lawmakers seek probe on
banks new debit card fees
Safeway 3Q profit
climbs on improved revenue
PORTLAND, Ore. Safeway Inc.
says it coming up with new answers as it
nds itself facing the same economic
challenges that have plagued the grocery
industry for years.
Its a tough time for the grocers: shop-
pers are still carefully watching what
they spend, food prices continue to rise
and competition is intensifying. The
chains that are succeeding have found
new ways to do so.
Safeway did not increase its sales vol-
ume during its most recent quarter and it
saw fewer shoppers in its stores.
Solar company Solyndra
says its CEO resigned
DOVER, Del. The CEO of a
California solar energy company that
sought bankruptcy protection after
receiving a $528 million loan guarantee
from the Obama administration has
resigned.
Solyndra Inc. said in papers led in
Delaware bankruptcy court Wednesday
that Brian Harrison resigned last Friday.

New engine boosts 2012 Cadillac SRX
By Ann M. Job
The SRX, the Cadillac of
crossover sport utility vehicles, gets
smart improvements for 2012
notably, a better engine and an eco
mode to try to maximize fuel ef-
ciency.
The new, ve-passenger Cadillac
SRX also retains a pricing edge vis-
-vis the segment-leading Lexus RX
350, and the mid-size SRX now is a
recommended buy of Consumer
Reports magazine.
Timing couldnt be better.
Even before the arrival of the 2012
model in August, the SRX had tal-
lied sales gains in calendar 2010 and
through the rst eight months of
2011.
In fact, SRX sales of 34,960
through August this year put it sec-
ond behind the 51,813 sales of the
Lexus RX 350 during the same time
period. Better yet for Cadillac, the
RX sales numbers are down from
last year.
Starting manufacturers suggested
retail price, including destination
charge, for the 2012 SRX $36,060.
This is for the base model with
two-wheel drive and 308-horsepow-
er V-6 and compares with the start-
ing retail price, including destina-
tion charge, of $39,950 for a 2012
RX 350 with two-wheel drive and
270 horsepower.
See SRX, Page 35
Prices for the SRX can go beyond $50,000 for upper-trim, 2012 SRX models, and the starting retail price for a 2012 SRX with all-wheel drive is $42,415.
Buyers must move up to the SRX Luxury model to get all-wheel drive.

It became apparent during the pre-
season that every week in the
Peninsula Athletic League Ocean
Division would be a test.
Last week, two of the front-runners
responded very differently to their rst
assignments and tonight, one will try
to rebound from a late-game collapse
while the other will try to continue
their white-hot start to the 2011 sea-
son.
Aragon will host San Francisco
tonight in Week 2 of the Ocean
Division regular season. The Dons are
coming off a disappointing loss
against Sequoia 32-28. The Warriors
manhandled the Menlo Knights 41-
21.
There is not a team in the Ocean
Division that couldnt compete and
win games in the Bay Division, said
Aragon coach Steve Sell. This is
another athletic, physical South City
team. Theyve been that way for years.
Were going to have to play really well
to beat them.
Every game is a test, said South
City coach Frank Moro. There are no
breaks in this league. This year, every
team is equal. I knew this league was
going to be close. So, its any-given-
Friday right now.
The teams battling it out in the Daily
Journal Game of the Week are a com-
bined 9-1.
Moro and the Warriors are 5-0 for
the rst time since 1996, thanks in
large part to their defense which
shined during the preseason and con-
tinued its growth against the usually
potent Menlo offense.

Half Moon Bay (1-0 Ocean, 2-3
overall) at Menlo School
(0-1 Ocean, 4-1 overall), 3 p.m.
The Cougars pulled away for a 48-21
win over Woodside last week. The
Knights couldnt hang with South City,
falling 41-21. Looks like a tough
non-league schedule paid off for Half
Moon Bay in its Ocean Division open-
er. The Cougars fortunes against
Woodside turned on a trio of big plays
in the third quarter: a blocked punt and
two fumble recoveries were turned into
21 points. RB Wes Walters paced
the Cougars offense, rushing for 245
yards and three touchdowns. Menlo
took an early lead against the Warriors
last week, but could not stop South
Citys ground attack, giving up 350
yards rushing. The Knights offense
could not get much going against a
tough South City defense, nishing
with just 201 yards of total offense.
El Camino (1-0 Lake, 3-2 overall)
at Capuchino (0-0 Lake,2-3 over-
all), 3 p.m.
The Colts opened Ocean Division
play with a convincing 33-14 win
over Hillsdale. The Mustangs
had a bye last week. They were shut
out 24-0 by Aragon two weeks ago.
El Camino has won 3 of 4 since
opening the season with a lopsided
loss to Menlo-Atherton. The 33
points scored last week was the
most for the Colts this season. El
Camino RB D.J. Peluso had a huge
game last week, rushing for 185
yards and two touchdowns on 23
carries. With the shutout against
Aragon, Capuchino has been held
scoreless in three of their ve games
this season. The Mustangs man-
aged just 135 yards of offense
against Aragon. The bright spot
for Cap was RB Justin Ewing, who
rushed for 102 yards on 21 carries.
Mitty (1-0-1 WCAL,3-1-1 overall)
at Serra (2-0 WCAL, 5-0 overall),
7 p.m.
The Monarchs held off St. Francis
21-17 last week. The Padres
steam rolled St. Ignatius, 49-28.

In sports, the saying goes its not
how you start the game, but how you
nish it that counts.
On Thursday afternoon, the
Hillsdale volleyball team proved
that there are exceptions to such
rule; because sometimes, its about
how you start and how you nish.
Sandwiched between two very
close games, that the Knights and
visiting Sequoia split, Hillsdale
played a pair of dominating sets
against the Cherokees in which they
dropped a total of 17 points. It was
Games 1 and 4 that propelled
Hillsdale to a 3-1 (25-9, 22-25, 25-
21, 25-8) victory over Sequoia.
When we came in, we had a goal
and that was to capture second place
(in the Ocean Division), said
Hillsdale coach Ricky Villareal.
The focus was on this match. The
focus was to win, and to win as a
team.

SANTA CLARA Just when
San Franciscos offensive line
seems back on track carrying a little
swagger, here comes the ferocious
Ndamukong Suh and Detroits pun-
ishing pass rush.
Hes big. He talks a big game. He
backs it up, too. And Suh isnt the
only one. The Lions are loaded on
their front line.
Ask Suh, and Alex Smith better
watch out if his O-line doesnt bring
its best stuff Sunday. He will hit the
quarterback, and not just once. This
Lions unit is competitive, with one
mantra: meet you at the quarter-
back.
The lm says it all, 49ers offen-
sive coordinator Greg Roman said
Thursday. Those arent empty
words.
San Francisco (4-1) didnt allow a
sack in its 48-3 rout of Tampa Bay
on Sunday, while the unbeaten
Lions (5-0) had three sacks of Jay
Cutler on Monday night but that
number just hints at the amount of
constant pressure Cutler faced.
Chicago committed nine false start
penalties in the 24-13 loss.
For a San Francisco offensive line
that faced harsh criticism only a few
weeks ago, things are suddenly
clicking. Smith has time to make the
right decisions and not fear for his
life. He has stayed upright. All that
after the 2005 No. 1 overall draft
pick took pounding after pounding
during the early stretch of the sea-
son sacked 14 times so far.
Suh hopes theres more of that
Sunday at Ford Field. He is one of
the most condent guys in a game
full of them. The reigning Defensive
Rookie of the Year, and the only
rookie All-Pro in 2010, has been
ned for roughing up quarterbacks
and doesnt apologize for it. He has
two sacks this season after record-
ing 10 as a rookie.
If youre not going to protect me
from your quarterback, Im going to
continue to hit him, he said on a
conference call with Bay Area
reporters. Its not necessarily me
putting fear of life I want you to
be scared of me its the fear that
if you dont take care of business
and study and
come up with a
great plan, Im
going to hit him.
The other eight,
nine guys I play
next to are going
to hit him as
well.
Smith has
been safe lately.
He trusts the
men paid to protect him, even if
they got off to a rough start.
The offensive line is playing
great, he said.
Most of San Franciscos front ve
say there are a few simple things
making the difference: attention to
detail, improved technique and just
a better overall understanding of the
offense.
Were two weeks more into the
offensive system, right guard
Adam Snyder said. Guys are get-
ting a better understanding of where
were at as far as the game-plan-
ning.
Coach Jim Harbaugh also made a
key change from Chilo Rachal to
Snyder starting the past two games,
and that move has paid off.
While Suh has his words,
Harbaugh has been using his own
unique message around team head-
quarters this week. He reminds his
players that winning can make you
soft.
Weve seen no evidence of that,
he said. We will be quick and on
alert for any signs or evidence.
Theres a guy that walks around by
the name of Frederick P. Soft.
Freddy Softs about a four-inch guy
that sits on your shoulder, talks right
into your ears. If we see or hear any
evidence of him being in the prem-
ises we will act quickly and deci-
sively and get him out of here.
Defensive coordinator Vic Fangio
is all for whatever fun ways
Harbaugh nds to motivate.
Left tackle Joe Staley did his part
to get his linemates going.
The early struggles prompted the
frustrated veteran to publicly say the
offensive line doesnt suck ahead
of the 49ers 24-23 comeback road
win over the Eagles on Oct. 2.
My emotions got the best of me
there, Staley later said of his lan-
guage. I felt like I had to stick up
for my guys. I just know how hard
we work.
The matchup in Detroit on
Sunday will demand that everybody
is on task with each snap. Crowd
noise contributed to all those false
starts by the Bears. Not to mention
Suhs massive presence.
Staley doesnt consider the focus
of the Lions line getting to the
QB any different from other
teams.
Its going to be a great ght
Sunday, Staley said.
While left guard Mike Iupati is
nursing a sore right knee, he said
Thursday hes good to go and he
took part in practice. If needed,
Rachal could ll in at one of the
guard spots.
Snyder is most likely to be face to
face with Suh all day. He typically
lines up against the right guard, and
anything goes when dealing with
Suh.
Ill consider myself a dirty play-
er when my mom calls me a dirty
player, Suh said during training
camp.
Snyder, among the lightest guards
in the league at 295 pounds, is feel-
ing stronger and quicker since los-
ing 25 pounds in the offseason pri-
marily by improving his diet. Smith
has been sacked only three times in
Snyders two starts, compared to 11
with Rachal in the lineup.
Lions coach Jim Schwartz used
nine different players on the defen-
sive line against Chicago to keep
everybody fresh and effective. That
approach is working well.
Ndamukong Suh doesnt stand
alone, Schwartz said of his power-
ful D-line. Its the heart and soul of
our team and the strength of our
team. It was last year and it is again
this year.
First-round draft pick defensive
tackle Nick Fairley is coming off his
debut after missing two months fol-
lowing foot surgery making him
the ninth active defensive lineman.
Yet not many outside of Detroit
have heard of these guys, like defen-
sive end Willie Young. He came up
with a late-game sack. Another
backup defensive end, Lawrence
Jackson, also had a sack.
You have to study all those
guys, Roman said. Theyre going
to roll them in and keep them fresh.

ALAMEDA The Oakland
Raiders acquired linebacker Aaron
Curry from the Seattle Seahawks,
though its unclear if the former rst-
round pick will play this weekend.
The trade, which sent Oaklands
seventh-round draft pick in 2012 and a
conditional fth-rounder in 2013 to
Seattle, was completed Thursday after
Curry passed a physical.
A day after cleaning out his locker
with the Seahawks, Curry posted a
picture of himself wearing a Raiders
shirt and hat on Twitter.
Its uncertain where Curry will t
into Oaklands defense. Middle line-
backer Rolando McClain was limited
in practice due to an ankle injury,
while defensive end Matt
Shaughnessy is sidelined by a shoul-
der injury.
A strongside linebacker with the
Seahawks, Curry gives Oakland the
exibility to move outside linebacker
Kamerion Wimbley to the defensive
line to replace Shaughnessy if need be.
(Curry) is athletic. He can run, he
tackles, he takes
on linemen, he
takes on backs,
coach Hue
Jackson said
before the deal
was completed.
I feel very com-
fortable in my
e v a l u a t i o n ,
watching tape of
this young man and what he is and
what he could do for us. I like this sit-
uation of him being a part of our foot-
ball team.
Jackson brushed aside criticisms of
Curry, who went from being a cant-
miss prospect in Seattle to a backup on
defense after losing his starting spot to
K.J. Wright.
I cant speak to what went on up
there but I know whats going to go on
here, Jackson said following practice,
before the deal was completed. We
came to a collective agreement over
the last couple days of myself watch-
ing tape and feeling very comfortable
about the opportunity to improve the
football team.
The move is the rst by the Raiders
since the death Saturday of owner Al
Davis.
Jackson, who said Davis trained
him to make personnel moves,
declined to discuss details of the deal
until it was nished. Curry is signed
through the 2012 season but its
believed he agreed to restructure parts
of his contract before trade was com-
pleted.
Currys arrival gives the Raiders 12
former rst-round picks, seven on
defense.
The No. 4 overall pick in 2009,
Curry never lived up to pre-draft
expectations in Seattle after winning
the Butkus Award as a senior at Wake
Forest. The 6-foot-2, 255-pounder has
5 1/2 career sacks and only 22 tackles
this season after losing his starting job.
Currys struggles reached a low
point in Seattles 35-26 win over the
New York Giants last Sunday when he
was replaced in pass coverage by
David Vobora, who had been re-signed
by the Seahawks earlier in the week.

NEW YORK The Big East is
considering adding Boise State
football to help bolster the confer-
ences chances of retaining its BCS
automatic bid, though both sides
still need to be persuaded that its
the right move.
A college football ofcial, who
spoke Thursday to The Associated
Press on condition of anonymity
because he was not authorized to
discuss the Big Easts plans, says
some Big East presidents are resist-
ing adding Boise State and the
school itself has reservations about
joining a conference in ux.
The Big East said earlier this
week it would like to expand to 12
football schools and split into two
divisions, which would allow the
league to play a championship.
The ofcial said that some Big
East leaders believe the priority in
expansion should be bringing in
programs that will ensure the Big
East remains an automatic qualify-
ing BCS conference when the cur-
rent Bowl Championship Series tel-
evision and bowl contracts run out
after the 2013 season.
Boise State could be just what the
Big East needs. The Broncos have
had one of the winningest programs
in college football recently, going
71-5 since 2006.
The BCS has a formula for evalu-
ating the strength of a conference
that takes into account the nal BCS
rankings of each team in a league.
Even if Boise State joined the Big
East next season, its nal BCS rank-
ing of 10th while playing in the
Western Athletic Conference last
year, and its ranking this season
while playing in the Mountain West
Conference, would count toward the
Big Easts ledger when it is
reviewed after the 2013 season.
No. 5 Boise State is 5-0 heading
into this weekends game at
Colorado State.
Losing its automatic BCS bid
could cost the reeling Big East mil-
lions of dollars in revenue down the
road.
Last month, Pittsburgh and
Syracuse announced they would be
leaving the Big East to join the
Atlantic Coast Conference. That left
the Big East with six football mem-
bers: Louisville, Cincinnati, West
Virginia, Rutgers, Connecticut and
USF.
The Big East also has eight
schools that do not play football:
Villanova, Georgetown, St. Johns,
Providence, Seton Hall, Marquette,
DePaul and Notre Dame.
The Big East has been holding
conference calls all week, including
Thursday, to discuss expansion
issues. Complicating matters in the
Big East are the at times conicting
agendas of the football schools and
the other members.
Aside from Boise State, Navy and
Air Force also have been targeted as
football-only members by the Big
East, and the league is considering
Temple from the Mid-American
Conference and Central Florida and
East Carolina from Conference
USA as members in all sports.
SMU and Houston from CUSA
also are possibilities, allowing the
Big East to regain the presence in
Texas it thought it was going to have
with TCU.
Boise State move to the
Big East not a done deal

Midnight Madness no longer lives
up to its name. Sure, some of col-
lege basketballs opening night cel-
ebrations are chances for crowds to
go crazy indoors for the rst time
since Connecticut won the national
championship in April.
The big difference is timing. Most
of the campus events start well
before midnight. Heck, almost all of
them end before the local newscasts
even begin.
This all began with Lefty Driesell
at Maryland 41 years ago. He just
wanted to get an advantage over
other schools so he set practice for
12:01 a.m. on Oct. 15, the earliest
date any team could practice. He
had the players run a mile outside
Cole Field House.
He never expected this to become
an annual rite televised by ESPN on
two of its networks for four hours, a
time frame long enough to at least
have some people watching at mid-
night.
Some of the events, which can
include everything from scrim-
mages to skill and dunk contests and
team skits, are now staples come
this time of year.
Kansas will host Late Night in
the Phog for the 27th straight year.
Kentucky will stage Big Blue
Madness, an event that is free but
had hopeful fans getting on line at 7
a.m. on Sept. 28, three days before
the tickets were distributed. There
will be a full house at 23,000-seat
Rupp Arena.
Hoosier Hysteria will happen
again at Indiana.
Maryland Madness will have
an alumni game that will feature
members of the 2002 national
championship team.
Duke will have its third annual
Countdown to Craziness.
Baylor will have Moonlight
Madness and the rst 500 fans will
receive glow-in-the-dark T-shirts
and a free hamburger.
The only trouble with all of these
doings is that they will be over well
before midnight. One school, how-
ever, is sticking to the clock.
Texas A&M will host Maroon
Madness, which will be held in
conjunction with Midnight Yell
Practice at Kyle Field, a football sta-
dium. The gates dont even open
until 10:30 p.m. and the action gets
under way at 11:45 p.m., as close as
any program comes to starting when
the name says it should.
Maroon Madness has the poten-
tial to be the largest-attended pre-
season college basketball event in
the country. It has been held at Kyle
Field for ve of the last six seasons
and Texas A&M set the unofcial
record at a preseason basketball tip-
off event when more than 28,000
fans attended in 2007.
ESPNU Midnight Madness will
run for the sixth year with more
schools than ever, including
Connecticut, Louisville, North
Carolina, Kentucky, Syracuse, Duke
and Texas A&M. Events at other
schools will be on ESPN3.

in the Ocean Division with a 5-2 league mark,
along with South City. With the Warriors playing
undefeated Terra Nova last night, a win by
Hillsdale meant they could do worse was stay
tied near the top of the standings. And behind
some great team defense, the Knights did just
that.
Hillsdale stormed out of the gates in Game 1,
but not before Sequoia pushed out to a 5-3 lead.
After a sideout gave the Knights possession,
Jami Maffei caught re from the service line.
With No. 15 leading the charge, Hillsdale reeled
off 14 straight points and led 20-6 before a
Natalie Harden kill stopped the bleeding
momentarily for the Cherokees. Hillsdale didnt
let up and took the set 25-9.
There was denitely momentum, said
Sequoia coach Jane Slater. And they (Hillsdale)
played very aggressively. We got tentative and
we got behind and we werent making them
have to work hard.
Sequoia shook off the shock in Game 2 and
appeared to seized that momentum right back.
The Cherokees found themselves down 17-10 at
one point, before turning the tables on Hillsdale
and tying things up at 20. From there, Harden
and Mikayla Wilkes put Sequoia on their backs
and pushed them to a 25-22 win in Game 2.
Wilkes had four kills in the frame.
Game 3 was more the same back-and-forth
volleyball and it appeared the Cherokees had
done a ne job of putting Game 1 completely in
their rear view mirror. But with things tied at 20,
a huge tip by Lisa Morabe gave the Knights an
extra boost. Hillsdale jumped out to a three-point
lead and it was Morabes ace that nished off
Sequoia 25-21 and gave the Knights a 2-1
advantage heading into Game 4.
I just told the girls, if you come into the
game, no doubts, no limits, no fears, youll cap-
ture it, Villareal said of the deciding game. I
told them, Go out and play as you did in the rst
(game). You wanted it. Were not a good team
dare to be great and you be a great team. And
they did. I thought it was solid. Sequoia was a
tough team to beat.
Hillsdale jumped to a ve-point advantage in
the fourth game and were never really chal-
lenged the rest of the way.
Mental toughness, Slater said when asked
what the difference was between the Sequoia of
Games 1 and 4, and Games 2 and 3. It was real-
ly all about, I dont know, volleyball is a super
mental game. We fell apart mentally and could-
nt pull ourselves back together maturity,
maybe a lack of maturity, lack of self con-
dence.
In Game 4, it was Madison Lavezzo who had
the hot service hand. Hillsdale surged to a 16-3
lead and led by as many as 17 points. They were
able to overcome a size disadvantage in the mid-
dle and play top-notch defense to outwork the
Cherokees.
The only thing we could do was not hit it
right at them, Villareal said of Sequoias big
middles, Harden and Wilkes. Just go to the cor-
ners or the sides. And if we stopped their hits a
little bit, theyre going to start tipping, so, we
picked up our coverage.
I hope this doesnt dictate how the rest of the
year goes, Slater said. Im hoping this was a
bad day and we pick up, come out strong next
week and end our season with a strong nish.
NATHAN MOLLAT/DAILY JOURNAL
Hillsdales Karen Chang makes a headlong dive to dig up a Sequoia serve during the Knights
four-set win over the visiting Cherokees Thursday afternoon.
ST. LOUIS Randy Wolf outfoxed the St.
Louis Cardinals for seven innings to earn his
rst postseason win at age 35 and the
Milwaukee Brewers got two more hits from
Ryan Braun in a 4-2 victory Thursday night that
evened the NL championship series at 2-all.
Matt Holliday and Allen Craig homered for
the Cardinals, representing their only runs in the
last 16 innings.
Francisco Rodriguez allowed a hit in the
eighth and John Axford nished for his second
save of the series and third this postseason.
The Brewers ended an eight-game road losing
streak in the postseason dating to the 1982
World Series opener at St. Louis.
Jaime Garcia faces Zack Greinke for the sec-
ond time in the series in Game 5 Friday night.
Either way, the NLCS will be decided back at
Miller Park.
Jerry Hairston Jr. doubled twice with an RBI
and Wolf hit one of the Brewers ve doubles.
Braun is batting .471 (16 for 34) in the postsea-
son with two homers and nine RBIs.
The Cardinals needed more heavy duty from
their bullpen, too, after Kyle Lohse, pitching on
12 days rest, failed to make it out of the fth.
Albert Pujols was a quiet 1 for 4 for St. Louis,
which was 0 for 8 with runners in scoring posi-
tion and is 0 for 15 after the rst inning of Game
3.
Wolf kept the Cardinals off-balance with soft
tosses and retired 13 of his last 15 hitters in his
fourth career postseason start. It was a huge
improvement from Game 4 of the NL division
series at Arizona in which he surrendered seven
runs in three innings.
Wolf also struggled in his last two regular sea-
son starts, allowing 10 runs in 11 2-3 innings.
For the fourth straight game, the Cardinals had
to lean heavily on their relievers. Lohse sailed
through three innings and then allowed three
doubles and three runs to his last eight hitters,
and was charged with three runs in 4 1-3
innings.
St. Louis relievers have worked 17 1-3 innings
in the series.
Two of Cardinals manager Tony La Russas
moves paid off. Bumped down one spot to fth,
Holliday hit his rst postseason homer and dou-
bled.
Craig started in place of Lance Berkman, who
was 3 for 32 lifetime against Wolf and had a
minor right thigh bruise from getting hit by a
pitch in Game 3. Craig hit his rst career post-
season homer made it 2-0 in the third.
The Brewers tied it in the fourth with their rst
runs since the third inning of Game 3 on doubles
by Prince Fielder and Jerry Hairston Jr. and an
RBI single by Yuniesky Betancourt.
Lohse was pulled after Nyjer Morgan doubled
to start the fth and advanced on a groundout,
the heart of the order coming up. Brauns single
off Mitchell Boggs put the Brewers in front
although second baseman Ryan Theriots
sprawling stop transformed Fielders smash into
an inning-ending double play.
Rickie Weeks singled and Hairston doubled
again to open the sixth, and the Brewers soon
had a two-run cushion. George Kottaras hit a
grounder against a drawn-in ineld off Arthur
Rhodes, and Theriot bobbled the ball on a short
hop for an error.
The Cardinals streak of scoring in the rst
inning ended at ve games when they went
down in order against Wolf, but they hurt the
left-hander with opposite-eld power the next
two innings. Wolf fell behind the count to six of
the rst 14 hitters and the Cardinals were 4 for 5
with two homers, a double, single and walk.
NOTES: Injured Cardinals pitcher Adam
Wainwright caught the ceremonial rst ball for
the second straight game, this time from former
Cardinals CF Jim Edmonds, accompanied by a
young son who also made a throw. ... Home
plate umpire Mike Everitt got stung in the upper
right arm area by a foul ball off the bat of Rafael
Furcal but stayed in the game.
Mark Kotsay started in RF in place of Corey
Hart, 2 for 17 against Lohse. ... The longest of
Wolfs three previous preseason starts was 5 1-3
innings with the Dodgers on Oct. 19, 2009, at
Philadelphia. ... An Anheuser-Busch wagon
pulled by Clydesdales and loaded with baseballs
made a circuit around the warning track during
the pregame ceremonies.

of the most offensively balanced teams
around. They are averaging 184 yards passing
and 149 yards rushing per game. This will
be Serras annual home game under the lights.
Its the Padres rst home game in a month.
The Padres rushed for a school-record 557
yards against S.I. last week, averaging a mind-
boggling 10.92 yards per carry. The
Padres starting backeld of QB Joey Erdie,
and RBs Erich Wilson and Eric Redwood,
combined for 548 yards rushing and seven
touchdowns. Wilson continues to impress.
He rushed for a season-high 244 yards and
four touchdowns last week, on just 13 carries.
Sequoia (1-0 Ocean, 4-1 overall) at
Woodside (0-1 Ocean,3-1-1 overall),7 p.m.
The Cherokees rallied from a 21-6 decit to
beat Aragon 32-28 last week. The Wildcats
suffered their rst loss of the season, 48-21 to
Half Moon Bay. It was a coming-out party
for Sequoia QB Mike Taylor, who took over
the starting duties when James Beekley was
lost for the season in the rst game of the year.
Taylor rushed for a game-high 131 yards and
three touchdowns on 18 carries and also threw
for 163 yards on 8 of 14 passing. The
Cherokees defense, which gave up 202 yards
of offense in the rst half, held Aragon to 149
yards in the second half. Woodside led
Half Moon Bay 14-7 before the wheels fell
off. A blocked punt by the Cougars and two
turnovers by the Wildcats translated into 21
points for Half Moon Bay. Christian
Masulit was a double threat against the
Cougars, accounting for 165 yards of total
offense (94 rushing, 71 receiving). QB
Ricki Hoffer had a big night in the loss, throw-
ing for 254 yards.
Sacred Heart Prep (0-1 Bay,4-1 overall) at
Burlingame (0-1 Bay, 2-3 overall), 8 p.m.
The Gators lost a shootout to Terra Nova
last week, 44-30. The Panthers wilted
against Menlo-Atherton in a 35-13 loss.
Sacred Heart Prep is proving it is not a one-
dimensional offense. Known primarily as a
running team, the Gators are being turned into
a dual threat by QB Jack Larson. Last week,
he threw for 370 yards and four touchdowns.
WR Patrick Bruni is quietly becoming one
of the best receivers in San Mateo County.
Last week, he caught 12 passes for 248 yards
and two scores. Over the last two weeks,
Bruni has 19 catches for 427 yards and three
touchdowns. The Burlingame defense held
M-A in check for a half holding the
Bears to just 103 yards of offense. RB
Daidyn Stewart had a good game for the
Panthers, rushing for 105 yards and touch-
down on 21 carries. Take away Stewarts
rushing yards and the Panthers had just 221
yards of offense against M-A.

Carlmont (1-0 Lake, 1-4 overall) at
Mills (0-0 Lake, 1-4 overall)
The Scots picked up their rst win of the
season last week, beating San Mateo 21-12.
The Vikings had a bye last week. They
were drilled 37-0 by Menlo School two weeks
ago. Carlmont did most of its damage last
week in the rst half, amassing 244 yards of
offense in the rst 24 minutes. QB Jack
Karasky rushed for 80 yards on just three car-
ries, including touchdown runs of 41 and 20
yards. Mills is scoring less than 10 points
per game while giving up nearly 30. There
was a running clock midway through the sec-
ond quarter against Menlo as the Vikings lost
their starting QB to injury the previous week
and his backup was injured against the
Knights.
Terra Nova (1-0 Bay, 3-2 overall) at
Jefferson (0-0 Bay, 1-4 overall), 7 p.m.
The Tigers outscored Sacred Heart Prep 44-
30 last week. The Indians are coming off a
bye. They beat El Camino 37-20 two weeks
ago for their rst win of the season. While
the Terra Nova running game has been solid
since the second week of the season, last
weeks win was all on QB Chris Forbes, who
threw for 409 yards and four touchdowns. He
also rushed for a pair of scores. Nick
Manessis did it all for the Tigers last week. He
caught a pair of touchdown passes, intercept-
ed a pass from his safety spot, kicked a 32-
yard eld goal and added ve extra points. All
told, Manessis was responsible for 20 points.
After having one of the most prolic
offenses in the PAL last season, Jefferson is
averaging just 17 points a game this year.
The Indians 37 points scored against El
Camino two weeks ago was the rst time this
season theyve scored more than 14.
Menlo-Atherton (1-0 Bay, 3-2 overall) at
Kings Academy (0-0 Bay, 3-2 overall), 7
p.m.
The Bears ran away from Burlingame in the
second half last week, posting a 35-13 win.
The Knights are coming off a bye. They beat
San Mateo 54-46 two weeks ago. Despite
being dominated in all facets of the game in
the rst half, M-A still took a 7-5 lead into
halftime before outscoring Burlingame 28-7
in the second half. RB Taylor Mashack ran
roughshod over the Panthers, rushing for 146
yards on just eight carries. Jamar Gaddis
made the most of his one carry last week,
scoring on a 75-yard run. Kings Academy
RB Steven Kmak had his third 100-plus yard
rushing game against San Mateo, nishing
with 123 yards and two touchdowns on 21
carries. As a team, the Knights rushed for
519 yards against the Bearcats.
Hillsdale (0-1 Lake, 1-4 overall) at
San Mateo (0-1 Lake,0-4-1 overall),8 p.m.
The Knights fell to El Camino 33-14 last
week. The Bearcats lost to Carlmont, 21-
12. For the second straight game, Hillsdale
moved the ball, but had a hard time putting it
into the end zone. The Knights offense is
the second-best in the Lake Division, averag-
ing just over 23 points per game. Their
defense, however is allowing 37. QB
Yannis Tsagarakis accounted for both
Hillsdale scores last week, with runs of 1 and
16 yards. San Mateo is still searching for
its rst win of the season. After averaging
29 points in their first four games, the
Bearcats had their lowest output of the season
last week. QB Trevor Brill passed for 137
yards, averaging 19.5 yards per completion.

and combined for ve sacks of quarterback Jack
Heneghan.
We have ve, six interceptions, weve had
some big sacks, we have some pretty talented
athletes out there, Moro said. We denitely
want to be ahead in the giveaway-takeway area
(at the end of the game).
South City has been more than effective on
offense, relying heavily on the two-headed rush-
ing attack of Keven Cunha and Anthony
Shkuratov. The South City tailbacks combined
for 293 yards on the ground against Menlo, with
Shkuratov leading the way with 149 of those on
21 carries it was his second 100-yard rushing
performance of the season.
I dont think you can win games without
really running the football, Moro said. We
have a couple other guys that can carry the ball
too. But we can evenly distribute it. There are
games where we threw 33 times. Yeah, I do think
its important to run the football, but I also think
its important to get it to other places.
Both defenses have been impressive to start
the year. South City has allowed only 12.8 points
per game. The Dons are slightly behind the
Warriors at 15 points per. Those marks are good
for No. 1 and No. 2 in the Ocean Division,
respectively.
But Aragon comes into Fridays contest with a
little something to prove. The Dons all but
owned the rst half against Sequoia after going
up 21-6 following a Victor Jimenez touchdown.
Then the wheels fell off for Aragon.
It took a while (to get over the loss), Sell
said. We talked about it [Thursday] and we
said, Its time to move on. And there was de-
nitely some lingering frustration with how we
lost. Not to take anything away from Sequoia,
but its time to focus on South City. We should
have done it a while ago, but we ofcially closed
the book on last week and said, Listen, its
Friday night, enjoy it, its going to be fun, were
playing a great team.
After the Jimenez touchdown, the Dons were
outscored 26-7. Still, Sell believes the tough loss
had an intended purpose.
I was looking forward to the game (against
Sequoia) because, we didnt know how good we
were, he said. And to play a game like we did,
we discovered that were pretty good. And South
City is another test. Im excited to see our kids
play. I think were prepared.
In the Warriors, the Dons have a team that
plays similar football, which proved benecial
in Aragons preparation.
I think they have a size advantage, so were
going to have to stay low, Sell said, its one of
those things where youre going to have to have
good technique and you cannot miss tackles.
Period. And, they run the ball very well, they
throw the ball very well. They have the big-play
capability. So, you put the kids in the right place,
and they do what theyre coached to do. And I
know if our kids do what theyre coached to do,
then we can play with anybody.

Penguins Crosby OKd for contact,
timetable for return still uncertain
PITTSBURGH Pittsburgh Penguins star
Sidney Crosby has been cleared for contact as he
continues his comeback from concussion-like
symptoms.
Crosby stressed theres still no timetable for
his return to game action but acknowledged
being allowed to be hit by his teammates is an
important step.
The former MVP wore a black helmet during
a morning skate on Thursday. He previously
wore a white helmet during practices to indicate
he was not to be touched during drills.
Coach Dan Bylsma says it will be up to
Crosby to initiate contact with his teammates.
The team is in no rush to get Crosby back. The
Penguins are 3-0-1 in four games this season and
host Washington on Thursday night.
Crosby hasnt played since suffering a pair of
concussions in early January.

Wilson was the Rangers ace during the regular season, going 16-
7 with a 2.94 ERA, but he has lost his touch during the playoffs.
Washington suggested Wilson was simply unfortunate on a pivotal
play he thought was going to be a double play.
Miguel Cabrera hit a grounder that bounced high off third base and
down the line, putting Detroit ahead 3-2 in the sixth inning.
They caught a break, Washington said. Thats what I thought.
The Tigers made some of their own breaks, too.
Delmon Young hit two homers of Detroits three homers off
Wilson slumping Alex Avila had the other and Ryan Raburn
cleared the fence off reliever Koji Uehara in the seventh inning.
Wilson said the second homer Young hit, a 2-run shot in the sixth
inning, was a cutter that was up, in and out of the strike zone.
Thats a chase pitch, but he stepped in the bucket and somehow
hit it out, Wilson said. I learned a lesson with that pitch a very
painful one.
That capped a wild inning.
The Tigers opened the sixth with a single, double, triple and homer
in order to take a 6-2 lead. It was the rst time four consecu-
tive batters on one team hit for a natural cycle in a postseason
game, according to STATS LLC.
Wilson has made the Rangers path back to the World Series more
difcult and the 30-year-old lefty probably cost himself money as a
potential free agent this offseason, too.
He mightve been in the Cy Young conversation this year if Justin
Verlander wasnt so dominant for Detroit, but memories of his suc-
cess in the regular season are fading away fast because of his shaky
performances in the playoffs.
Washington gave Wilson the ball in Game 1 of the teams AL divi-
sion series against Tampa Bay and he got roughed up.
Wilson gave up eight runs six earned on seven hits over ve
innings in the 9-0 loss to the Rays. He fared better the next time he
had a shot in Game 1 against Detroit, giving up two runs over 4 2-3
innings to help the Rangers win 3-2. His outing in Detroit was some-
where in between his previous two starts in the postseason.
I dont think he lost any steam, Washington said.

Sachs blames
leadership for
decline of U.S.
By Carl Hartmn
Jeffrey D. Sachs, one of Americas
best known economists, has spent
much of his career helping repair the
effects of
World War
II in coun-
tries from
Poland to
Brazil. He
now directs
the Earth
Institute at
New Yorks
Col umbi a
University
and is a
s p e c i a l
adviser to U.N. Secretary-General
Ban Ki-moon.
He perceives the United States to
be in decline, which he writes about
in his new book, The Price of
Civilization. Its likely to attract
strong criticism from both the right
and the left.
In the rst half of the book, Sachs
writes that on many days, it seems
the only difference between
Republicans and Democrats is that
Big Oil owns the Republicans while
Wall Street owns the Democrats.
He blames President Ronald
Reagan for a new antipathy to gov-
ernment, adding: There is little
doubt that a lot of pent-up greed was
released, greed that infected the
political system and that still haunts
America today.
Sachs says Obama has continued
By Christy Lemire
Youd have to really love birding as
much as the guys here do to enjoy the
strained buddy comedy The Big
Year to its fullest potential.
Except for some lovely scenery
and a few lively interactions between
the three stars Steve Martin, Owen
Wilson and Jack Black The Big
Year feels like the long, cross-coun-
try schlep that it is. And in the pursuit
of what? The title of spotting the
most bird species in North America
over the course of a calendar year,
something extremely specic that
will probably only interest a few peo-
ple in the audience.
Yes, of course, the journey is the
destination and whatnot. And The
Big Year competition itself is merely
a device, an allegory for the desire
these three men have to prove their
worth at this particular moment in
their lives. If that werent obvious to
us already, the voiceover-heavy script
spells out everything these people are
thinking or regretting or learning
from this magical experience.
David Frankels lm, based on the
non-ction book by Mark Obmascik,
begins in lively fashion in
introducing its charac-
ters and establishing
its premise, as you
might expect from
the director of The
Devil Wears Prada.
(Frankel also previ-
ously directed
Wilson in
Marley & Me.) But it quickly
grows repetitive as Martin (as retiring
corporate CEO Stu Preissler), Wilson
(as the cutthroat reigning champ,
Kenny Bostick) and Black (as
divorced, cubicle-
dwelling new-
bie Brad
Harris) go to
e x t r e m e s
chase each
other around
and race
against
t h e
clock.
Its a mad, mad, mad, mad bird.
Along the way, Stu and Brad form
an easy friendship, despite coming
from opposite ends of
the success spec-
trum. Watching
these two
extremely differ-
ent comic actors
team up and play
off each other pro-
vides one of the
few natural
joys in a
lm that
t o o
often relies on heartwarming
schmaltz.
Sharing screen time with the vari-
ous geese and eagles and owls is a
ridiculously strong cast of supporting
actors, most of whom dont get
enough to do. They include Brian
Dennehy, Dianne Weist, Joel McHale
and Kevin Pollak; even the brief nar-
ration at the start, explaining the his-
tory of The Big Year, comes from
John Cleese.
JoBeth Williams enjoys a
few deadpan zingers as Stus
inordinately understanding
wife, while Rosamund
Pike provides some sub-
stance to what could have
been a naggy, one-note
role as Kennys wife,
who longs to have a
baby and is increas-
ingly frustrated with
his absence and obsession.

Game thrives with Greatest mode
By Jonathab Landrum Jr.
The National Basketball
Association has canceled the
rst two weeks of its season,
and theres no sign the lockout
is going to end anytime soon.
Thats no reason for hoops-
loving video-gamers to suffer,
though. 2K Sports has come
well-prepared for the league
stoppage with NBA 2K12
(for the Xbox 360 and
PlayStation 3, $59.99),
which delivers enough
upgrades and new features to
keep fans happy until the real
thing returns.
This years edition of the best-
selling basketball franchise
introduces the new Greatest
mode, an enhanced My
Player mode and strong com-
mentary, fluid gameplay and
improved animation.
The Greatest features the
leagues top 15 players of all
time, including Michael Jordan,
Larry Bird and Kareem Abdul-
Jabbar, as well as 30 teams
from some of the most
famous rivalries. The presenta-
tion is awless, capturing the
true essence of how television
broadcasts looked in different
eras. For example, a Boston
Celtics-Los Angeles Lakers
matchup from the mid-1960s,
highlighting center Bill Russell,
is presented in grainy black and
white.
Once you win a game in the
Greatest mode, both teams will
be unlocked, allowing you to

and present stars. You can

THRILLPEDDLERS SHOCKTOBER-
FEST 12: FEAR OVER FRISCO. The
curvy redhead in the clinging slip, the hard-
boiled district attorney with the shoulder hol-
ster, the femme fatale in a trench coat and
stiletto heels. They step from the lurid covers
of pulp crime paperbacks and onto a terror-
filled stage, in Thrillpeddlers
Shocktoberfest 12: Fear Over Frisco, three
short, blood-drenched plays that lead the
audience through San Franciscos noir-
stained history. In The Grand Inquisitor, an
odd young woman with a cache of used
books comes calling on an elderly recluse
she believes is the widow of San Franciscos
most notorious serial killer. In An Obvious
Explanation, a daring heist goes awry when a
crook gets amnesia after hiding his loot and
a questionable doctor proposes to solve the
problem with her untested memory serum.
In The Drug, a young deputy DAs efforts to
crack the case of a celebrated artists disfig-
urement are thwarted by the prosecutors
own desire for the comely prime suspect.
From the delightfully macabre song and
dance Preludo that opens the show to the
blacked-out finale filled with ghostly appari-
tions, Fear Over Friscos sanguinary bill of
fare merits a visit during this happily ghoul-
ish Halloween season. Written By Eddie
Muller. Directed by Russell Blackwood and
Eddie Muller. Music Direction by Scrumbly
Koldewyn. Through Nov. 19.

AN ASIDE:
Director and Actor Russell Blackwood
said, Shocktoberfest is Thrillpeddlers
annual celebration of Grand Guignol, a the-
atrical genre that is best know for its reputa-
tion for over the top violence. To us it
offers much more. Variety! A bill of Grand
Guignol one-act plays is made up of short
comic sketches, sex farces and, of course, the
theatre of fear and terror that the original
Grand Guignol theatre in Paris made so pop-
ular a century ago. Its theater of laughter
and tears and rather than purely slice of
life realism it features a heavy does of slice
of death melodrama. We see it all the time
in film, but on stage I find it particularly
electrifying.

create a head-to-head matchup between
Magic Johnson and LeBron James, or pit the
1985 Boston Celtics against this years cham-
pion, the Dallas Mavericks.
The most signicant improvement in NBA
2K12 is the revamped My Player mode,
which lets you build a player from scratch.
Rather than starting in the Development
League, as in last years game, your player is
placed in a rookie showcase game. After the
showcase, your created player is interviewed
by three different teams and then heads to the
NBA draft, featuring the likeness and voice of
league commissioner David Stern.
On the court, NBA 2K12 delivers
improved articial intelligence on defense and
broader offensive skill sets, along with a pre-
cise play-calling system. The player models
faces and bodies are more on point this year
especially Kobe Bryant, who looked more
like an alien in last years installment.
The commentary is again impressive, with
sportscasters Kevin Harlan and Clark Kellogg
being joined by former NBA player and new-
comer Steve Kerr. Unlike the sometimes
repetitive commentary in other sports video
games, the play-to-play from Harlan and Kerr
provides a fresh outlook.
For newcomers or regulars who need to
brush up on their skills the game offers a
training camp mode to practice all your
moves. There are nine training session led by
mentors Jordan, Bird, Pete Maravich and
Hakeem Olajuwon.
Thanks to the lockout, team rosters are
frozen and you wont be able to play with any
of this seasons rookies. But you can simulate
the season on your own in the Association
mode or go online with friends and create
your own league.
In all, NBA 2K12 is the best basketball
video game yet. Four stars out of four.

while, has some amusing moments as a no-non-
sense birding tour guide in Oregon (just the
sight of her in braided pigtails, suspenders and
a plaid shirt is good for an initial laugh).
Ultimately, though, the who-cares? factor in
watching men chase birds is just too insur-
mountable. The Big Year aps its wings
awfully hard but never truly takes ight.
The Big Year, a Fox 2000 release, is rated
PG for language and some sensuality. Running
time: 99 minutes. Two stars out of four.
YEAR
down the path of open-ended war in
Afghanistan and massive military budgets,
kowtowing to lobbyists, stingy foreign aid,
unaffordable tax cuts, unprecedented budget
decits, and a disquieting unwillingness to
address the deeper causes of Americas prob-
lems.
He also accuses mass media and business
interests that own them as fomenting many of
the countrys ills.
Sachs writes that within one generation,
Americans have displayed a shocking array
of addictive behaviors, including smoking,
overeating, TV watching, gambling, shop-
ping, borrowing and loss of self-control, and
are addicted to a miserable diet that has led
to a staggering 33 percent obesity rate.
Readers who share his views will enjoy his
vigorous criticism of people at the top of the
heap; people he sees as misusing wealth to
control government. Some readers may nd it
hard to follow the statistics and extensive
graphs that he uses to support his stands.
The second half of the book takes a more
cheerful stand on Americas destiny.
Sachs sees American Millennials peo-
ple ages 19 to 30 as shaping the future of
the country more than any other group over
the next 25 years. He quotes the Pew Research
Center as nding 67 percent of them support-
ing a bigger government providing more
services, while only 31 percent of those over
65 take that view.
He sees education, adapted to the times, as
the rst decisive area, and writes that each
Tuesday at Columbia he has the joy of partic-
ipating in a global classroom with 20 campus-
es around the world linked by an Internet-
based videoconferencing into a discussion of
sustainable development.
He concludes that America will not again
dominate the world economy or geopolitics as
it did in the immediate aftermath of World
War II. But he adds: If we again invest in
ourselves for good health, safe environ-
ment, knowledge and cutting-edge skills
renewed American prosperity can still be
secured.

British actor Andrew Lincoln, who woke up
from a coma in the hospital to nd his town
overrun by esh-eating monsters and his wife
and son missing. He eventually stumbles upon
his family, along with his best friend Shane
Walsh (played by Jon Bernthal) and other sur-
vivors, at a campground outside the city.
The show is not about how gory we can
make it, said co-executive producer Greg
Nicotero, the shows special effects make-
up guru who also directs this season. We
want it to be shocking. We want to remind
the audience of the world were in that
world is brutal and savage and raw. But its
also about survival.
As always, the show follows the rst rule of
the zombie genre: No one on the show has
ever heard of a zombie, calling them walk-
ers instead. They spend each episode learn-
ing the tricks of surviving the undead: avoid-
ing loud noises that will draw their attention,
using rotting carcasses to mask the smell of
the living and nding creative new ways to
kill the monsters stalking them.
Dead began six months of lming in and
around Atlanta in June, boasting plots full of
hair-raising new zombie encounters and heart-
stopping action. The rst season which was
just six episodes ended with the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta
blowing up and leaving the group with little
hope of nding a cure to the virus that creates
the zombies.
The new season opens with the survivors,
led by Rick and Shane, heading off to Fort
Benning, Ga., but getting snagged along the
way as a member of the group disappears and
another is injured. Enter new character
Hershel, a farmer, and his family and friends,
to help the group as they look for respite from
the hell that has become their new reality.
The show has been plagued by rumors of
tension after the abrupt departure of showrun-
ner Frank Darabont, who has an executive
producer credit this season, and news of budg-
et trimming for the hefty production. But that
hasnt slowed the crew, which has worked into
the wee hours of the morning many days to
capture the intensity of the roller-coaster plot.
And the shows avid fans arent disappear-
ing. A series of brief webisodes creating a
back story for a zombie seen in the rst season
got more than 2 million hits within days of
being posted recently on AMCs website.
The AMC drama drew more than 5.3 mil-
lion viewers on its Halloween premiere last
year, and got just as many viewers for the fol-
lowing week not to mention sales of
Kirkmans award-winning graphic novel,
drawn by artists Tony Moore and Charlie
Adlard, have steadily increased since the
show was announced last year.
Bernthal, who like many of the actors
worked with a dialect coach to capture the
classic Georgia drawl, said he signed onto the
project after reading the pilots detailed
description of the world the show would cre-
ate.
It painted a picture that was so vivid and so
compelling, said Bernthal, sporting a shaved
head and latex dirt covering his knuckles.

WEEKEND JOURNAL 25
By Mae Anderson
NEW YORK A well-stocked
kitchen can be a real money saver.
Having the right pots and pans and
pantry basics can save you loads in
the long run because you can cook
more meals at home and spend less
eating out.
But how do you nd the right pans
without spending a fortune in the
short run? And how do you know
what to keep in your pantry that you
will actually use?
Here are some tricks and tips.
POTS AND PANS
Its tempting to buy pots and pans
on the cheap, but experts say that
will cost you more in the end
because cheaply made cookware
doesnt last and wont cook things
quickly or evenly and youll end
up buying more cookware sooner.
Fortunately, theres a bevy of ways to
save on quality cookware.
First, gure out exactly what you
need. Check out online guides and
tutorials from retailers like Macys
and Bed Bath & Beyond. Most
experts recommend owning one
saute pan, a saucepan, a Dutch oven
and a stockpot. But what you need
depends how much and what you
cook.
Next, scout off-price websites like
Overstock.com and brick-and-mor-
tar discounters like Marshalls and
T.J. Maxx, which often have abun-
dant cookware. Jeff Contray, manag-
ing editor of dealnews.com, also sug-
gests checking clearance sales and
the outlet stores of high-end depart-
ment store chains like Nordstrom,
Macys or Bloomingdales.
If youre lucky, you may nd good
cookware at thrift stores, yard sales
or online auction sites like eBay. But
make sure the items are good quality
(Calphalon, All-Clad and Le Creuset
are among many high-quality brands
that last for decades). And dont buy
anything thats damaged or over-
used.
WELL-STOCKED PANTRY
Once you have the
right cookware, you can
spend very little to
create deli-
cious meals,
if you have a
c a r e f u l l y
stocked pantry.
The trick is to
know what you
actually will use
and what you wont
and then to remember
what youve stowed
away.
Some pantry basics
are obvious: For quick
and cheap dinners, keep
pasta, couscous, rice
and other grains all
very inexpensive on
hand for a foundation. Beans are also
inexpensive and work in a wide vari-
ety of cuisines. Chicken, beef or veg-
etable stock which can be stored
for a year or more in a can or aseptic
box is the key ingredient in
numerous sauces and soups. Bear in
mind that frozen
vegetables can
be cheaper
than fresh and
keep longer.
Learning a
few simple
recipes can
help stretch the
items in your
pantry. Tomato
sauce for pasta is one
of the simplest, and it
can be made tasty
with a few additions
like onions, garlic
and herbs like
oregano or basil.
Another classic: rice
and beans, which costs just pennies
if you are stocked up and can be
made in the styles of Mexican,
Spanish, Italian or many Asian
cuisines.
Simple soups can be time- and
money-savers. Nothing beats home-
made chicken noodle soup for com-
fort food, and all you need is broth,
pasta and a small amount of chicken.
Branch out to black bean or broccoli
soup, both remarkably easy. All three
can be whipped up in a few minutes
once youre stocked up, and theyll
make even the most kitchen-phobic
person look like a gourmet chef.
Online checklists, like this one at
Real Simple, http://bit.ly/chNl4y,
can help guide your decisions. But
be honest about your taste when you
stock up. Dont buy a pound of
lentils, even if you can get them at a
great price and you know theyre
easy to cook with, if you know you
cant stand them.

hopes to retain the slot hes held the
last four years while the other two
are campaigning for either his seat
or the vacancy left when former
mayor Omar Ahmad died unexpect-
edly in May. Former councilman
Brad Lewis was appointed to the
interim position but is not running
for re-election on the Nov. 8 ballot.
During in-ofce interviews with
the Daily Journal, the three candi-
dates each worked to differentiate
themselves while often agreeing the
city needs business diversity, a
return of budget surpluses to
reserves and a community center.
A pool wouldnt be too shabby,
either.
Royce called the rst half of his
initial term a learning curve, fol-
lowed by the chance as mayor in
2010 to act on the data dictating
how to handle a $3.5 million decit.
Royce pushed the council to con-
sider outsourcing several services,
including re, police, parks mainte-
nance and human resources payroll.
The ideas received a hefty dose of
push back from opponents and
unions but Royce said the outcomes
are among his achievements. His
re-election bid is spurred by a
desire to continue working on the
momentum built by he and Ahmad,
he said.
We have so much more to do,
he said.
That said, Royce isnt certain
every area would benet from the
approach although he wants more
partnerships with Half Moon Bay to
which they currently provide parks
and recreation services.
Olbert and Collins also agreed
the city made the right choice in
outsourcing although Olbert
believes the city could have handled
the breakup of the Belmont-San
Carlos Fire Department better to
avoid the bruised feelings of the
rank and le now receiving less
compensation.
Its not just about the numbers
when you make a decision. Its
about the people, he said.
He also wasnt a fan of the citys
consideration of contracting with a
private company for re service.
Hed like the city to look at
behind-the-scenes needs for possi-
ble future changes, such as out-
sourcing or sharing finance and
accounting or reviewing the need
for an assistant city manager or
high-level clerk position.
Olbert, a three-term trustee on the
San Carlos Elementary School
Board, said if elected he will bring
a mix of innovative and creative
thinking he honed in the private
sector as well as the transparency
he helped implement in his current
post. The board has taken to asking
if a denial is a no vote or a hell no
vote, he said, drawing the differ-
ence between opinions set in stone
and those that could use discussion.
The same attitude could benet the
council, he said.
Collins, an insurance broker with
city planning and business develop-
ment experience, feels connected to
the town in which he grew up and
said this emotional investment drew
his desire to serve.
If you care about the town, you
want to care for it, he said.
Collins voted for every previous
tax, he said, but wants to avoid new
ones and would like to maximize
economic development and busi-
ness diversity to bolster the citys
ability to attract new customers and
stabilize its bottom line. Collins sits
on the Economic Development
Advisory Commission which
recently compiled a target list of
businesses the city may want to
actively recruit. Hed like to see a
hotel and have the city foster small
industries on the east side as they
often do business together.
All agreed that the city needs to
encourage business growth outside
downtown.
Economic development often
reduces to the next restaurant on
Laurel Street, Olbert said.
However, San Carlos could be a
draw for green tech, biotech and
Silicon Valley startups based on its
highly-educated population and
location halfway between San Jose
and San Francisco.
Just a few business decisions eas-
ily change the mix, said Royce,
who wants the city to look at ways
to couple industries together such
as more medical offerings near the
pending Palo Alto Medical
Foundation hospital on Industrial
Road. The city needs to make deci-
sions now to continue improving
the east side and make sure the
departure of one business like
Tesla Motors doesnt leave a
void that cant be lled, he said.
This year, the San Carlos budget
is not only balanced but with a
small surplus for the rst time in a
decade. What to do with those extra
dollars, and how to expand the mar-
gin, were among the areas on which
the candidates had mixed levels of
agreement.
The three said putting the funds
away for a rainy day is one key way
to keep the city from slipping back
to its decit but Royce and Collins
said some should go for neglected
capital improvements like side-
walks and storm drainage. Collins
would also consider restoring the
Kiwanis Building as a community
center and improve road safety.
Olbert thinks enforcing traffic
laws will help road safety to some
extent and while he agrees with put-
ting money away he also called the
decision a balancing act. Some
money could be used to better staff
the citys economic development
functions or invested in ways to
grow future business.
Education and housing
Aside from business, the City
Council will also weigh in on mat-
ters of education and housing.
The city and school district are
currently discussing ways to create
a new school, possibly through a
land swap. The current facilities are
full and the city has no high school,
which affects other joint needs like
athletic field availability. Olbert
called the need for more school
space a problem of success that
increased enrollment. Hed like the
school and city to consider a joint
arrangement of sorts for recreation-
al needs think on a larger scale
than simply a eld or a pool and
as a current trustee said he has keen
insight into the issue. Regardless of
what answer is chosen for a school,
Olbert said the city and school dis-
trict need to learn how to work
together better as to avoid the head-
butting that happened when the two
entities unsuccessfully tried to
install artificial turf at Heather
Elementary School.
Transit-based housing
All three candidates agree the
Transit Village project proposing
mixed-used housing and retail
around the train station leaves a lot
of questions unanswered. Collins
pointed out the 54-foot height is 20
feet higher than a telephone pole
and will create a wall bouncing
sound to the east side insult to
injury for residents still upset about
the berm construction.
I want to see a lot more ideas
before giving my stamp of
approval, Collins said.
Olbert wants more direct engage-
ment with Caltrain rst. Theres no
guarantee transit-oriented housing
will translate into increased rider-
ship, particularly if residents dont
have easy access to work or other
destinations on the other end. One
constituent suggested a child-care
center for the village and while
Olbert said hes not sure if that is a
good t it certainly illustrates the
out-of-the-box thinking needed.
A major hurdle is the plan to
place parking a 10-minute walk
from the train platform and not con-
sidering how trafc turns from El
Camino Real into the lot, Royce
said.
I think they really missed the
mark, Royce said.
Council decisions
If Royce had one decision to do
over, he named the council only
proposing a sales tax increase
rather than a utility tax hike.
Measure U, the sales tax request,
failed. Collins said he also thinks
the proponents of Measure U
should have worked harder to get it
passed or ask instead for a utility
tax. In hindsight, the failure spurred
the city to face its structural decit,
he said.
So maybe it was a good thing,
he said.
Collins also pointed to SCOOT,
the citys defunct free shuttle serv-
ice. While providing transportation
itself was a good idea, not charging
riders was a bad move, he said.
Olbert would have revisited the
councils approach to re outsourc-
ing, saying that while the employ-
ees knew their compensation was
out of whack they are now left
receiving less pay and benefits.
Royce countered that yes reght-
ers are receiving on average 7.5
percent less but there were still 500
job applications led within one
hour for the new stand-alone
department.
In the end, Royce said it is hard
for him to admit but there are three
great candidates running for the
council options that make him
work even harder. Collins promised
to talk with everybody and come
with no pre-conceived ideology.
Olbert again highlighted his cre-
ative thinking, strong sense of
accountability and willingness to
adopt others ideas.
I always steal from the best, he
joked.

FRIDAY, OCT. 14, 2011
Both a little bit of chance and a lot of Lady Luck are
likely to play prominent roles in your personal affairs
during coming months. Although both factors will
make your life easier, one particular event will be
especially outstanding.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Dont waste your time
dealing with a subordinate instead of the head hon-
cho, because you must know youre not going to get
anywhere. Go directly to the head of the class.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Once you have thought
an important decision through, act in accordance
with the way you have reasoned things out. Dont
yield to an impulsive reaction.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- An imaginative
product of your ingenuity may actually have proft-
able possibilities. If you follow your plans, you have a
chance for good results.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Two separate situ-
ations in which youre involved might have a chance
of fusing together very nicely. Itll be to your advan-
tage to tie them together to see what you can do.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Both your instincts
and logic will be operating at full force, so see if
you can link them together in order to more greatly
enhance your possibilities for success.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- There is a strong pos-
sibility that a chance remark made by someone who
works in a place where big things are happening will put
you onto something substantial. Keep your ears open.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- If youre doing reason-
ably well with your work and seem to be on a roll,
dont be too eager to call it a day. Get things done
while everything is going your way.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Dont count your social
involvements as wasted hours. You need some inter-
action with fun people as a break from the harshness
of the working world. Make time for them, because
theyll lift your spirits.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Play it cool for best
results. Dont disclose the hand youre holding until
your counterpart reveals his or hers. Chances are
youll be the one who is holding a trump.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- It might fall to you to
mediate a sticky situation between two close friends.
Dont back off from this unwanted responsibility if
you know you can resolve things.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Dont delay going after
an important objective if you believe the favorable
conditions youre now experiencing may only be
temporary. Strike while the iron is smoking.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- If you think you have
a solution that would resolve a misunderstanding
between two close friends, speak up. Its important
you do so while both parties are in a forgiving mood.

change has caused Blandford and Hathaway
to work more closely together despite the fact
their rinks are not afliated with each other.
We are not really competing with each
other, Hathaway said. Our competition is
essentially against other recreational and
entertainment choices. We are trying to get
kids who go to the movies or putt-putt golng,
for instance, to try ice skating.
Nazareth actually tried to hire away the Ice
Centers hockey instructor, Hathaway said,
proof that interest in hockey is growing in the
region.
In fact, former Sequoia High School student
Bryon Paulazzo earned a scholarship to play
hockey at the University of Miami, Ohio.
With the success of the San Jose Sharks,
more youth are interested in learning hockey
and that includes girls, Hathaway said.
With a minor league hockey team, the San
Francisco Bulls, set to play at the Cow Palace
next year, Hathaway imagines interest will
continue to grow in the sport.
The Ice Center is working with the Bulls
now to help prep for the 2012-13 season,
Hathaway said.
In San Mateo, the Ice Center has several
hockey leagues for older children while
Belmont handles the 10-and-under hockey
league, Hathaway said.
The collaboration sends many families back
and forth between both rinks and the Ice
Center actually buys practice time at Belmont
Iceland for hockey practice.
Hathaway contends that many of the areas
high school students who play football or
baseball would have a better chance at going
to college with a scholarship if they spent
more time on the ice.
Many Serra High School students play for
the Peninsula Predators, a junior hockey team
that has a chance to compete for a state cham-
pionship, Hathaway said.
Figure skaters also travel between all three
rinks in the county to take to the ice during
public and gure skating hours.
Wednesday, 10-year-old Burlingame resi-
dent Erina Yamaguchi spent several hours
freeskating at the Ice Center in San Mateo.
The young gure skater takes lessons at the
Ice Center but also travels to both the
Redwood City and Belmont ice rinks to prac-
tice.
She practices up to ve hours a day, ve
days a week, her mother said.
But Hathaway said the Ice Centers philos-
ophy has changed a bit over the years.
We are no longer just looking for the next
Olympic champion, Hathaway said. The
emphasis now is getting families to spend
time together on the ice, he said.
Friday nights are meant for teens and young
adults to congregate on the ice as the Ice
Center puts on a laser show. In Belmont, it
only costs $5, which includes skate rental, to
play on the ice Friday nights, Blandford said.
On Saturday night, the Ice Center may stay
open until midnight, Hathaway said.
We want to be a safe haven for teenagers,
he said.
The Ice Centers learn-to-skate program has
about 450 youth currently enrolled and anoth-
er 330 or so participate in the in-house and
travel hockey programs, Hathaway said.
About 400 youth are registered in learn-to-
skate programs in Belmont and about 40 are
enrolled in figure-skating programs,
Blandford said. Another 150 youth participate
in the under-10 hockey program, he said.
All of our numbers are going up,
Blandford said.

changed, Raughley said.
It is still a real issue, she said.
The bridge, built in 1963, received a struc-
tural rating of 4 for the deck, considered to
be structurally decient, according to the
Federal Highway Administrations 2010
National Bridge Inventory.
But Caltrans completed a project in January
of this year that involved column retrotting
and treating the deck with methacrylate that
restored the bridge to good condition,
Caltrans spokeswoman Gidget Navarro wrote
in an email to the Daily Journal.
The October 2010 bridge inspection report
indicates the bridge is no longer designated as
structurally decient, Navarro wrote in the
email.
The bridge at Alameda de las Pulgas where
the rally is planned is listed as No. 350161 on
the bridge inventory report, which stated it
had not been inspected since 2008.
The bridge was last inspected Oct. 13, 2010,
according to Caltrans.
The old report listed the decks structural
rating as a 4, superstructure rating of 7
and a substructure rating of 5.
Any rating below 5 is considered to be
structurally decient. The superstructure sup-
ports the deck and the substructure connects
the bridge to the ground.
The updated report shows the bridge now
has a deck rating of 7, superstructure rating
of 7 and substructure rating of 6. The
bridge has a 84 percent rating, according to
Caltrans.
I think this bridge is a better example of
how we are identifying bridge needs and put-
ting people to work addressing them,
Navarro wrote in the email.
Raughley praised Caltrans for xing the
bridge but said the old report listed at least 74
bridges in San Mateo County that were
deemed structurally decient and more than
180 bridges in Santa Clara County that had
the same rating.

Prices for the SRX can go beyond
$50,000 for upper-trim, 2012 SRX
models, and the starting retail price for
a 2012 SRX with all-wheel drive is
$42,415. Buyers must move up to the
SRX Luxury model to get all-wheel
drive.
In comparison, the 2012 Lexus RX
350 with all-wheel drive has a starting
MSRP, including destination charge,
that is lower $41,350. Another com-
petitor in the luxury mid-size crossover
segment is the 2012 BMW X5 with
300-horsepower, gasoline six-cylinder
engine that has a starting retail price of
$48,075. The X5 comes standard with
all-wheel drive.
The new SRX developed from the
last couple of years of steady improve-
ments. For the 2010 model year,
Cadillac downsized the SRX, changed
its ride to more car-like and cut the
price some $7,000 so it could better
compete with the Lexus RX 350.
The RX has been the longtime sales
leader in the premium, mid-size SUV
segment.
The changes helped boost SRX sales
by 150 percent in 2010, even as some
automotive enthusiast magazines
remained unimpressed by the SRXs
2.8-liter, turbocharged six cylinder.
So, this year, both the turbo six and
the SRXs 3-liter V-6 are gone,
replaced by a 3.8-liter, double over-
head cam V-6 with direct gasoline
injection that already made a strong
statement in Cadillacs smallest sedan,
the CTS.
The engine works well in the heavy
SRX, which can top out at 4,442
pounds with all-wheel drive and luxury
options added on.
The test SRX, a top-of-the-line
Platinum AWD model, moved swiftly
and was smoothly powered by the new
engine. I merged into traffic easily and
got up to speed without fuss. And when
I needed to pass other vehicles, the
power was there and ready. Torque
peaks at 265 foot-pounds at 2,400 rpm
and carries on past 5,000 rpm, which is
an impressive and usable range for
around-town driving and highway.
While the shifts in the six-speed auto-
matic transmission were always
smooth, I could hear the engine at the
high revs just before shifting.
Part of the time, I drove around in eco
mode, which is activated via a push but-
ton. In eco, the transmission uses a
slightly different shift pattern to maxi-
mize mileage.
During the test drive, in combined
eco and non-eco driving on both city
and highway roads, I managed 17.1
miles per gallon, which is less than the
18 mpg combined rating put out by the
federal government. Its worth noting,
though, that the SRX only needs regu-
lar fuel and is fine with E85 fuel, too, a
mix of gasoline and 15 percent ethanol
thats often found in the Midwest.
The SRX rode with heft. Theres not
a sprightly feel to this five-door, 5.5-
foot-tall vehicle, and I noticed the shift-
ing of weight and mass from one side of
the vehicle to the other as I maneuvered
through curves.
My passengers and I heard road noise
coming through from the Premium
models 20-inch Michelin tires. But
wind noise was nonexistent.
The SRX is sized fine for those who
rarely carry a back seat of people and a
lot of cargo. But anyone thinking that
this is a large SUV will be disappoint-
ed. Back-seat legroom is just 36.3 inch-
es, which is a half inch less than whats
in the back seat of the RX 350. Even the
back seat of last years Honda CR-V
measured 38.5 inches of legroom.
Cadillac says the SRX cargo room,
with rear seats folded, maxes out at
61.2 cubic feet. The RX 350 offers 80.3
cubic feet of space in back.
The cargo floor is up a good bit from
the pavement, so heavy items have to be
hoisted inside. Small items can be neat-
ly tucked into a hidden storage spot in
the cargo floor. I wished, though, that
the SRX had hooks for grocery bags.
While the test SRX with large, ultra-
view power sunroof felt airy and open,
rear shoulder room can feel a bit
pinched. It measures 56.3 inches, which
is less than whats in the RX 350.
I liked that rear-door windows were
good sized, even if they didnt go down
all the way. Theres scarcely any hump
in the middle of the rear-seat floor.
The speedometer is well illuminated,
but the center circle is so large, it leaves
only a little room at its perimeter for the
red needle indicating the speed the SRX
is traveling. So, I wound up tuning the
digital display in the instrument cluster
to show via large numbers what my
speed was.

Thus far, he has struggled to move the
troubled state in a new direction: His fel-
low Democrats control the Legislature,
but Republicans have shunned his budg-
et and tax proposals. The nancial out-
look is gloomy: Through September,
money coming in to the state treasury
was running $654 million below projec-

Appearing at a conference sponsored
by the Milken Institute, Brown warned
that Californias luster indeed, the
nations was in danger of fading. He
also lamented the wide gulf between
Republicans and Democrats
We can easily stagnate, he said.
America is at risk, looking out on the
next 20 years, given the competition in
China and other places. And the only
way we can overcome it is to work
smarter and be smarter, and get a more
coherent focus politically and cultural-
ly.

The carpool: A staple
of modern parenting?
By Lisa A. Flam
With three kids who need to get to soccer, lacrosse, foot-
ball, cheer and swim team not to mention school
Allison Stevenson says her eight-seater minivan is crucial for
carpooling.
I always have extra children in my car. I couldnt function
with a smaller car, says Stevenson, 37, of Greer, S.C., who
bought her Honda Odyssey in 2007.
Stevenson, who has 6- and 7-year-old daughters and a 9-
year-old son, shares a morning carpool to school with a
neighbor and swaps rides with other parents after school.
They have lots of children involved in lots of activities, so
we depend on each other to get everybody to where they need
to be, says Stevenson, adding that most of her neighbors also
have vehicles with the important-for-carpooling third row of
seats.
Sure, carpooling has been around for decades. Kids got
carted around in the big station wagons of the 70s and early
80s, then the minivans of the 90s and, most recently, the
SUV. But the carpool has become an important piece of the
parenting puzzle for some parents of heavily scheduled kids.
Unfortunately, its imperative these days that your child is
extremely well-rounded, says Stevenson, who believes after-
school activities can impart lessons in dedication and team-
work that are important later in life. There is pressure for
your children to do a thousand different things.
Many parents also see carpooling as a way to save money,
time, and wear and tear in a time of higher gas prices and a
shaky economy.
Kara Corridan, health editor of Parents magazine, says car-
pooling may be more common now because more women
have re-entered the work force; fewer children walk to
school; and there are more extracurricular activities, and
sports being offered at younger ages. Without sharing the
driving, parents say they couldnt do all they want for their
kids.
