Half Moon Bay festival gets high tech with smartphone feature

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Being surrounded by goblins, miniature Batmans and Kardashian wanna-bes at this years Pumpkin Festival can make navigating the event in hopes of crushing that churro craving very challenging. Is it a left at the massive pumpkin being carved by Farmer Mike Valladao, the Picasso of pumpkin carvers, or a right? Maybe it is straight past the delicate hand-made pumpkins for sale.
Those with smartphones can go into this next weekends gourd gathering well prepared thanks to iPumpkin an app created by Half Moon Bay-based Phondini Partners to help with the celebration of all things pumpkin. The free app, available for both iPhone and Android users, can help people nd their favorite artists booths, pumpkin ale or the rules for the costume contest. Through this weekend, users can also log their guess for the weight of this years winning pumpkin. After midnight this Sunday, a pumpkin
quiz will magically appear in that place. Were all living in these virtual communities now, said Phondini Partners Founder Joe Falcone. And, the problem with that is that were being abstracted away from the places. My idea was to put the place back into community. In doing so, put a private place back in the community and show people that weve got a really great place here. Theres a lot going on. Lets see if

SACRAMENTO Gov. Jerry Brown said Friday he had signed a bill moving all statewide initiatives and referendums to November general election ballots, a change that also postpones a June vote on Californias rainy day fund. Brown signed SB202 to return initiatives to the November ballot or special statewide elections called by the Legislature, meaning propositions will no longer appear on June
primaries, when voter turnout is significantly lower. The law also delays until November 2014 a vote on whether to the Jerry Brown amend California Constitution to strengthen the states rainy day fund. That measure was placed on the June 2012 ballot last

Redwood City weighing medical marijuana ban

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
Redwood City councilmembers will decide Monday night whether to follow through on a planning recommendation to permanently ban medical marijuana facilities through zoning to avoid any potential legal tangles by outlawing them outright. The Planning Commission at its last meeting agreed with city staff that if medical marijuana collectives
and dispensaries are allowed, enforcement will be costly and time consuming, crime could escalate and regulation would be challenging because of ongoing conicts between state and federal policies. Realignment the transfer of some state prisoners and parolees to local control is another consideration because the Redwood City police is expected to help with pro-
bations monitoring of parolees and potentially handling an inux of offenders released early to alleviate overcrowding. Asking the department to regulate and police medical marijuana outlets simultaneously could limit the resources available for other, more pressing public safety demands, according to the staff report com-

Pastry shop employee faces charges for stealing dough

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
The former bookkeeper for a San Mateo bakery is accused of pocketing the companys dough over the span of three years to cover hefty debts and buy gift cards. Prosecutors say suspicions arose about Gabriela Figueroa Verdusco, 31, after the president of Pastry Smart hired an accountant to audit the records and found she had embezzled $387,631.03 between May 2008 and April 2011. Verdusco allegedly stole the money by making false entries in the books that showed payments to legitimate vendors but actually cut the checks to herself. Pastry Smart, on South Amphlett Boulevard, specializes in organic par-baked and frozen pastries, bread and confectionery products, accord-
ing to its website. The money was used to pay extensive nancial debts, according to District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe and San Mateo police reported nding numerous purchases by Verdusco for highend gift cards. Verdusco appeared in court Friday to plead not guilty to seven counts of embezzlement and seven counts of second-degree burglary. Verdusco remains free from custody on her own recognizance. At the time of her arrest, the audit was unnished and her alleged thefts were totaled at less than $100,000 which played a role in the lack of bail, Wagstaffe said. The District Attorneys Ofce later asked for bail but was denied because she was not deemed a danger to the community, Wagstaffe said. Verdusco will stand trial April 23.

Investigators close case of deadly dog mauling
The investigation into an August dog mauling in Pacica that killed a pregnant woman was closed Thursday, police said. Darla Napora, 32, was attacked on Aug. 11 by her family pet Gunner, a 75pound pit bull Darla Napora terrier, at her home at 588 Reina Del Mar Ave. Naporas husband found her when he returned home to nd the 2-yearold male pit bull hovering over her mauled body. Police said Napora died as a result of the attack and no other factors led to her death. The necropsy report for the dog who was shot when it tried to escape when emergency responders arrived at the home did not show any abnormality, disease or condition that may have caused the attack. No foul play was indicated in the investigation, police said. The San Mateo County Coroners Ofce, Peninsula Humane Society and two forensic odontologists, or bite experts, assisted police in the investigation.
Enrollment top issue for San Carlos schools

Education foundation sponsors forum for board candidates
By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Local briefs
a Silicon Valley cement plant heard an ominous voice on a work-issued walkie-talkie: the gunman, whod fled the bloody scene, was vowing to Shareef Allman return. He says something to the effect of, Im watching you and Im going to come back and nish you off! said Sgt. Jose Cardoza, a spokesman with the Santa Clara County Sheriffs Office. The chilling account emerged Friday as authorities provided new details about how Shareef Allman shot his terried victims, all co-workers, killing three and wounding six others.
Growing enrollment in San Carlos schools coupled with the challenges of providing a 21st century education with limited nancial resources were the issues acknowledged by three candidates hoping to serve on the school board. Trustee Seth Rosenblatt, technology executive Adam Rak and civil engineer Peter Tzifas who are competing for two three-year positions on the San Carlos Elementary School District Board of Trustees participated in two forums this week. During the Friday morning session, hosted by the San Carlos Education Foundation, candidates elded prepared questions in addition to some written by the audience. San Carlos has experienced a growth in attendance in recent years. The district, which is largely comprised of charter schools, previously admitted many out-of-district students as well. Space has been an issue for some time. Over the summer, school and city ofcials began discussing possible solutions like building a new school as a way to handle it. Rak wanted the new school to serve kindergarten through fth-grade students. Having fth-grade students return to elementary schools, he said, would also alleviate overcrowding for middle schools.
Rosenblatt was less concerned with the conguration and emphasized the need to work through other constraints like land and cost. He Seth Rosenblatt felt there were lots of possible configurations that would work. Tzifas wanted the effort to be joined more with the city. Through longterm master planning, Tzifas thought comPeter Tzifas munity needs would ultimately be better met. A new school would mean changing boundaries. All three candidates recognized that would be a reality but it shined light on another issue for Tzifas communication. Tzifas wanted the board to work harder at reaching people who arent parents. Boundaries, for example, were changed previously. Most parents with children in the district were aware of the discussion. Tzifas, on the other hand, was not. His daughter was not yet in school. One way to reach the general public would be by partnering with the city with its email blasts,
he said. Rosenblatt thought he, as a single trustee, had done a bit more to reach out through events and his blog. Working Adam Rak together, all agreed, was needed to maintain funding and ght action from the state that negatively affect schools. When it came to technology in the schools, Rak wanted to see it better integrated at all levels while Tzifas was concerned it had not been proven as an effective tool for young children. Rosenblatt and Rak both thought technology could be integrated in other lessons like English or math, allowing teachers a way to differentiate lessons to meet the needs of individual students. All three candidates felt strongly about retaining good teachers. They also agreed San Carlos probably has a good working environment, which helps with retention. Without additional funding, they agreed its difcult to do more. Tzifas noted the parent volunteers in the classroom help. Rosenblatt discussed offering small incentives for individuals who take on additional tasks. Rak agreed, giving the example of having teachers lead training.

Steve Wagstaffe. He said basically it is his life at stake and thinks he can do a good job, Wagstaffe said. If Najdawi is convicted, he cannot appeal the verdict on the basis of misand felony fraud for allegedly stealing his brothers credit card for use the night of the murder and while evading police afterward. Chus body was found slumped in a car at the intersection of Chula Vista and Sanchez avenues and connected to an early-morning shooting reported July 8, 2008 in Millbrae. Chu reportedly had been in the drivers seat when shot nearly a dozen times in the head. Authorities assume the shooter pushed Chus body aside and drove the car away. Authorities say the men had been drinking together that night but further motive remains unclear. A week later, police apprehended Najdawi at a Redding motel. On May 15, 2009, a judge found Najdawi incompetent based on the reports of four court-appointed doctors and sent him to Napa until he was found mentally restored. Najdawi remains in custody without bail.

The Millbrae man who spent time in a state mental hospital after his arrest for allegedly shooting an acquaintance and dumping the body in a parked car on a residential Burlingame street will act as his own attorney against murder and gun charges. A judge Friday granted the request by Teyseer Zaid Terry Najdawi, 28, to represent himself in the trial scheduled for Oct. 31. Defense attorney Jonathan McDougall was relieved as his attorney but appointed as stand-by counsel, a position in which he does not advise or sit with Najdawi but is available if he needs to step in. The law allows any defendant to represent themselves as long as he or she is competent and understands the risks, said District Attorney

Brown signs five bills to boost pipeline safety

SACRAMENTO Californias governor signed a package of bills Friday designed to strengthen oversight of natural gas transmission pipelines and improve emergency responses to prevent deadly pipeline explosions. Gov. Jerry Browns office announced that the Democrat had signed ve bills written in response to the Sept. 9, 2010, blast in the San
Francisco suburb, which killed eight, injured dozens and destroyed 38 homes. Through AB 56, SB 44, SB 216, SB 705, SB 879, legislators Jerry Brown seek to set new standards for emergency preparedness, authorize
the California Public Utilities Commission to mandate the placement of automatic shut-off valves in vulnerable areas and ensure that utilities are testing high-pressure transmission lines. The National Transportation Safety Board unanimously agreed at a meeting in late August that the accident was caused by a litany of failures by the pipelines owner, Pacic Gas & Electric Co., as well as weak oversight by regulators.

Gov. signs ban on shark fin trade
SACRAMENTO Californias governor announced Friday that he signed a bill banning the sale, trade and possession of shark ns to protect the worlds dwindling shark population. Gov. Jerry Brown signed AB376 over objections that the ns are used in a soup considered a delicacy in some Asian cultures. California joined Hawaii, Washington, Oregon and Guam in the ban that environmental and animal rights activists hailed for closing off Pacic ports in the U.S. to the shark n trade.
Oracle pays U.S.government $199.5M

State bans cellphone used by train drivers

LOS ANGELES State regulators have banned California train drivers from using cellphones in the wake of a deadly Los Angeles crash blamed on texting. The California Public Utilities Commission on Thursday unanimously voted to ban use of cellphones, pagers, satellite phones and other personal electronic devices by rail transit personnel. It makes permanent an emergency ban already in place.
Redwood City-based Oracle Corporation will pay $199.5 million plus interest to settle federal claims it overcharged the government hundreds of millions of dollars in sales. The settlement is the largest under the False Claims Act ever obtained by the U.S. General Service Administration which contracted with Oracle in 1998 to sell software licenses and technical support to the governments entities. The GSA uses a pricing schedule for commonly used commercial goods and services. Companies contracting with the government using the schedule are able to sell to hundreds
of purchasers under one central contract but must agree to abide by its terms and agree to disclose its best prices. The suit claimed that, in both contract negotiations and over the course of the agreement, database manufacturer Oracle knowingly failed to meet its contractual obligations to keep GSA informed of its sales practices including discounts given to other customers, according to the U.S. Department of Justice. By not receiving the same reductions as other non-government clients, the United States ultimately paid far more than it should have for the same Oracle products, the DOJ alleged. Some estimates have placed the
overpricing at hundreds of millions of dollars. The resolution announced yesterday settles a 2007 lawsuit brought on the governments behalf by former Oracle employee, Paul Frascella, who will receive $40 million for his role as whistleblower. The DOJ intervened in the federal suit last year. Although Oracle settled the case, the company vigorously denies that it did not scrupulously adhere to the contracts pricing requirements, said spokeswoman Deborah Hellinger. Hellinger, in an email to the Daily Journal, said Oracle never committed any fraud but, given that the case began 13 years ago, many witnesses
are no longer available or clearly recollecting events. Oracle has therefore decided to avoid the distraction and high cost of litigating this case by settling, Hellinger said. Prosecutors, however, lauded the outcome which they said shows the governments commitment to protecting taxpayers money and maintaining equity. Companies that break the law or use fraud to gain government business undermine the integrity of the procurement process and create an unfair advantage against the majority of companies that are playing by the rules, Tony West, assistant attorney general for DOJ civil division, said in a prepared statement.
AG Holder answers critics on gun-smuggling issue

California allows online voter registration

SACRAMENTO Californians will be able to register to vote online for the 2012 elections. Gov. Jerry Brown announced Friday that he signed legislation that supporters say will modernize Californias election system. The bill, SB 397, allows the state to begin registering voters online ahead of a new statewide voter database.
WASHINGTON Attorney General Eric Holder said Friday that his testimony to Congress about a controversial gun-smuggling probe was truthful and accurate and that Republicans are engaging in political posturing when they say otherwise. In his most forceful criticism of
Eric Holder
Republicans during his time as attorney general, Holder said that he had said little so far about the gun-smuggling probe because the Justice Department inspector gener-
al is investigating it but that he could not sit idly by while a Republican congressman suggested that law enforcement and government employees be considered accessories to murder. Key Republicans say the attorney general knew many months earlier than he has admitted that the gunsmuggling probe by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and 1,245,443 riders in a month was achieved in July 2008.
Explosives involved agents letting guns pass from small-time straw purchasers to arms trafckers. I have no recollection of knowing about the operation, called Fast and Furious, or of hearing its name prior to the public controversy about it, Holder said in a letter to key Republican and Democratic members of Congress who oversee Justice Department issues. the Marine Mammal Center said.

petitive disadvantage and nancially damage local businesses. If passed, this ban would have the least environmental benet and the most negative impact on the business community. Local creeks and Ron Fong shorelines need all the help they can get. Save The Bay estimates that more than one million plastic bags enter the Bay each year, suffocating wetlands, threatening wildlife and creating David Lewis blight in our recreation areas. By eliminating plastic bags at all retailers, the city would be taking a strong step toward cleaning up local waterways, including Millbrae Creek, where the city identied a serious trash problem just last year.

Broad bag ordinance will benefit the Bay

By Ron Fong and David Lewis
upporting local businesses and protecting the Bay environment can go hand in hand. That is why the California Grocers Association and Save The Bay are working together in San Mateo County and throughout the Bay Area on carryout bag ordinances that give businesses, consumers and the Bay the best deal by applying the ban to all retailers. Unfortunately, the city of Millbraes current bag proposal would seriously undermine that deal. In December 2010, the city of San Jose passed the strongest single-use bag ordinance in California. When it goes into effect in January, the ordinance will ban plastic bags at all retailers, placing businesses on a level playing eld and eliminating millions of singleuse bags being handed out in the city. The goal is for customers to bring their own bags everywhere. Several Bay Area cities are following San Joses lead. Unfortunately, the city of Millbrae is proposing an ordinance that would only cover traditional grocery stores. It would not apply to their food-selling competitors, which will create a com-
Guest perspective
is now amending its law to include all bags and all retailers. While Millbrae should be commended for addressing this issue, it is ignoring lessons from the past and is about to take an unnecessary step backward. The City Council needs to do the right thing for Millbrae businesses, residents, creeks and the Bay. As business and environmental leaders, weve worked together to help other communities receive the most benet from bag ordinances, and we know Millbrae and the entire county will benet from a uniform, comprehensive policy on single-use bags. We encourage Millbrae to reassess its approach and protect our Bay and our businesses.

The young call for economic justice

n my last column, I wrote: Since there has been a big media blackout, likely, those reading here will not even know that for almost two weeks (now three weeks) theres been thousands occupying the square near Wall Street, demanding that it be called to account. Of course, Wall Street responded only by beeng up security and labeling them the spoiled children of the middle class and aging hippies, when, actually, most are young and intelligent students and graduates who have fullled their college dreams and are unable to nd decent jobs, if any at all. Since, even famed universities have down played liberal arts and become vocational schools for the most, there is a lack of historical awareness that these young are almost always the vanguard of big changes in societies, as we saw during the Vietnam and civil rights movements. These protests are ignored at our own peril as these are representative of the future of America. And Fox News and other media are having a heyday trying to make them look immature, foolish and irrelevant. One letter to the editor criticized me for looking back into history. Well, even more importantly, in this case, I call upon my own history of unpleasant experiences viewing Wall Street as a registered commodities options trader. One should pay heed to these lessons: Especially, in the past century, the greatest changes in governments have been initiated by demonstrations of the young. In the United States, its been the aborting of the Vietnam disaster (called bums by Richard Nixon) and the support of civil rights (for which some died). For example, in France in 1968, the disaffected young turned it into the greatest upheaval in French society and economy since the French Revolution of 1789 and an almost complete reversal of government policy after the adult workers joined in, as they are here, now. And, as the young rst appeared well dressed, the police treatment, as expected, was brutal and the young went grungy and retaliatory. This is, conventionally, the progression in all youth demonstrations. The police become impatient and start to beat the protesters until one is seriously hurt or killed and become martyrs. Then, hell really breaks loose. The four dead at Kent State at the hands of the Ohio National Guard was the death knell for the continuation of our countrys involvement in Vietnam. In the nal report about the 1968 Democratic National Convention demonstrations, it was called a police riot, blamed upon their resentment about needing to deal with the young and highly educated of the upper middle class. And, I believe we are seeing this again in New York City. Generally, as in the Occupy Wall Street movement, the demands are not originally focused. However, as other disenchanted join them and sympathetic demonstrations are spreading across the country, its clear that the well-polled vast majoritys hostility to the conduct of the nancial institutions that, principally, brought on our Great Recession, has nally been presented with a vehicle for their anger, something to rally around as did the tax disenchanted in the growth of the Tea Party movement. A lot of this is due to the failure of the Obama administration, in the bailing out of Wall Street, to go after the nancial crooks who were the principal perpetrators of the current economic collapse and consigning them to jail, as did the Pecora Commission in the wake of the economic collapse that brought on the Great Depression. The Pecora investigation uncovered a wide range of abusive practices on the part of banks, bank afliates and bank stocks. The hearings galvanized broad public support for new banking and securities laws. The U.S. Congress passed the GlassSteagall Banking Act of 1933 to separate commercial and investment banking (Shot down by Bill Clinton in 1999). The Securities Act of 1933 set penalties for ling false information about stock offerings, and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which formed the Securities and Exchange Commission, to regulate the stock exchanges. Pecora wrote: Bitterly hostile was Wall Street to the enactment of the regulatory legislation. (Sound familiar?) Had there been full disclosure of what was being done in furtherance of these schemes, they could not long have survived the erce light of publicity and criticism. (Do we know better now?) Legal chicanery and pitch darkness were the bankers stoutest allies. (Amen!) And I would add, weak-kneed national administrations, as we have now. So now we know that Bill Clintons foolish repealing of Glass-Steagall and Obamas looking to nd favor with Wall Street and reckless big businesses have been the prime facilitators for the Great Escape of the Wall Street Barons and their obscene bonuses.

Blue Angels
Editor: While thousands of spectators thrill to the aerobatics of the Navys Blue Angels precision ight team, few realize that these same yers always make it a point to visit the local schools and hospital childrens wards wherever they perform, giving immeasurable hope and encouragement to the many youngsters they meet. Truly, these dedicated men deserve to be called Blue Angels. Angeles. The results are not shocking. Due to Californias bad budget, in 2011-12 we see: protests at UC and CSU from 26 percent tuition increases, lawsuits from cities/nonprots due to state taking their money but releasing convicted felons into our communities, senior centers and state parks closing, raiding of city redevelopment funds, cutbacks in social services, etc. In contrast, high-speed rail cost estimates continue to rise to $67 billion-$100 billion and feds only providing $3 billion, with California liable for $97 billion and additional cost overruns. Call Gov. Jerry Brown at (916) 445-2841 and Treasurer Bill Lockyer at (916) 6532995 to kill the boondoggle now. Bolar, was arrested and charged with grand theft (stealing a free public education), convicted of two felony counts and placed in jail for nine days. Please explain to me how you can steal a free public education. This is happening in Connecticut, Kentucky, Missouri and other states. These parents realize the erce urgency of now involving their childrens education. If the public schools in their neighborhoods were of better quality, these parents would not have to look for a better education for their children someplace else. Schools are paying people to report out-of-district students; hiring private investigators to track these children that they identify as illegal students. We award illegal immigrant students in California with perks that nativeborn students do not receive. Our laws that prohibit parents from choosing the best local public schools for their children need to be changed. I am writing this letter to ask the average person out there to pay attention to the overreaching of our government on all levels. Please become active in your government.

Wall Street
last month, about double what economists had expected. The government also said more jobs were added in July and August than previously reported. Economists said the report countered short-term fears that the U.S. might be entering another recession. Yet it offered few signs that strong growth will return soon. The U.S. unemployment rate remained steady at 9.1 percent for the third straight month. The payroll gains werent enough to bring the unemployment rate down, or even to keep up with growth in the U.S. population. Broader indexes and small-company stocks didnt do as well as the large companies that make up the Dow. The Standard & Poors 500 index fell 9.51 points, or 0.8 percent, to close at 1,155.46. The broader index still gained 2.1 percent for the week, the second week it has made gains out of the previous six. The Nasdaq composite index fell 27.47, or 1.1 percent, to 2,479.35. The Russell 2000, which tracks smaller companies, plunged 2.6 percent to 656.21. The Dow is up 1.7 percent for the week. The Nasdaq rose 2.6 percent.

Merck & Co.Inc.,up 19 cents at $31.61 The drugmaker said it won U.S. approval for Juvisync,the rst pill that will treat both diabetes and high cholesterol. Sony Corp.,down 87 cents at $18.25 The Wall Street Journal reported that the electronics maker may buy out Ericssons stake in their mobile-phone joint venture. Nasdaq Clearwire Corp.,down 66 cents at $1.39 Sprint Nextel Corp. said it will stop selling phones that use Clearwires wireless broadband services at the end of next year. Illumina Inc.,down $12.75 at $27.18 The genetic analysis instrument maker suspended its revenue forecast because of an unexpected slump in equipment purchases.

A three-day rally on the stock market faded Friday after a mixed jobs report and credit-rating cuts for Italy and Spain. The Dow Jones industrial average rose in the morning, turned lower at midday, rallied from 3 to 3:30 but then fell 124 points the last half hour of trading. The latest day of choppy trading left the Dow with a loss of 20 points, following a 468point surge over the previous three days. Banks fell more than the broader market as the downgrades of Italy and Spain by the Fitch agency renewed concerns about Europes debt crisis and the fallout it could have on banks. Bank of America Corp. plunged 6 percent, the most in the Dow. JPMorgan Chase & Co. was close behind, 5.2 percent. The Dow Jones industrial average dropped 20.21 points, or 0.2 percent, to 11,103.12. Stocks that tend to do well even during economic downturns fared the best. Wal-Mart Stores Inc. led the Dow with a 1.8 percent gain. Drugmaker Pzer Inc. rose 1.2 percent. The Labor Departments closely watched report on unemployment contained mixed news for investors. U.S. employers added 103,000 jobs
FDA approves diabetes-cholesterol pill

By Linda A. Johnson
TRENTON, N.J. The rst combination pill for the millions of people with the dangerous combination of diabetes and high cholesterol won U.S. approval Friday, offering convenience and savings to patients taking multiple pills. Juvisync, a probable blockbuster developed by Merck & Co. Inc., will be launched in a few weeks. It combines Mercks Type 2 diabetes pill Januvia with Zocor, a former Merck blockbuster in the widely used class of cholesterol drugs called statins. The combination pill will sell for the same price as Januvia alone, about $215
per month. Generic versions of Zocor cost roughly $30 a month. That should make Juvisync attractive for the millions of diabetics currently not taking a statin. Guidelines from the American Diabetes Association recommend that diabetics who have heart disease or are over age 40 take a statin pill daily. This provides a way to simplify their regimen and improve adherence, said Dr. Susan Spratt, an endocrinologist at Duke University Medical Center. Spratt said many diabetes patients are taking six or more pills a day, including different types of pills for diabetes, blood pressure and high cholesterol. It can be hard to consistently take them all at the right time, and even with health
insurance, patients out-of-pocket costs for their medications and diabetes testing supplies can be very high. Anything to reduce the cost is going to be helpful to patients, Spratt said, adding, When you improve medication adherence, you actually lower health care costs because patients dont end up in the ER or the hospital. Merck shares rose 37 cents to $31.79 in late-afternoon trading, after rising nearly 3 percent. In Type 2 diabetes, the body either does not produce enough of the hormone insulin or does not use it efciently, allowing excess sugar, or glucose, to accumulate in the blood. Over time, that damages blood vessels and crucial organs.
Chemical makers say BPA no longer used in bottles

By Matthew Perrone
WASHINGTON Makers of the controversial chemical bisphenol-A have asked federal regulators to phase out rules that allow its use in baby bottles and sippy cups, saying those products havent contained the plastic-hardening ingredient for two years. The unusual request from the American Chemistry Council may help quash years of negative publicity from consumer groups and head off tougher laws that would ban the chemical from
other types of packaging because of health worries. For now, the industry says concerns over bottles and spill-proof cups are unnecessary. All the evidence we have is that those products have been off the market for several years, said Steven Hentges, the American Chemistry Councils director for BPA issues. Were trying to bring clarity and certainty that BPA isnt used in baby bottles and sippy cups today, and it wont be in the future. BPA is found in hundreds of plastic items from water bottles to CDs to den-
tal sealants. Some researchers are convinced that ingesting the chemical can interfere with development of the reproductive and nervous systems and possibly promote cancer. Consumer health groups hailed the move as a win for moms and dads but pressed for removing BPA from more products. The writing is on the wall for BPA, said Mike Schade of the Center for Health, Environment and Justice. We hope to see a major transition away from BPA in canned food in years to come. deaths in Indiana and New York. The CDC also conrmed a death in Wyoming that state ofcials reported last week.

The agency previously reported ve deaths in Colorado, ve in New Mexico, two in Texas, two in Kansas and one each in Maryland, Missouri, Nebraska and Oklahoma. CDC said it is also aware of one miscarriage associated with the outbreak. The death toll in the cantaloupe outbreak is now tied with a 1998 outbreak of listeria in hot dogs and possibly deli meats made by Bil Mar Foods, a subsidiary of Sara Lee Corp.

Economy adds jobs,not enough

Pain of job crisis goes well beyond the unemployed
By Paul Wiseman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Unemployment has been stuck near 9 percent since the recession ended more than two years ago. The jobs report for September on Friday sent the clearest signal to date that the crisis will last through next years elections. The pain isnt conned to the 14 million officially unemployed Americans. Among those hurt by todays 9.1 percent jobless rate are people forced to work only parttime and those whove given up looking for work in frustration. Count many people with jobs, too. Their pay, home values and employment prospects have been diminished by the lack of goodpaying, full-time work. Include, too, communities where services have been slashed, small businesses struggling with weak sales and young adults who cant nd jobs to repay student loans. The ailing job market is both a symptom and a cause of troubles elsewhere in the economy from a depressed housing market to cash-short governments to sluggish consumer spending. Heres a look at the wide-ranging consequences of chronically weak job growth.
according to the Labor Department. People are much more compliant and willing to take extra work assignments because theyre afraid, says Carl Van Horn of Rutgers Universitys Center for Workforce Development.
GOVERNMENT BUDGETS:
High unemployment squeezes government nances in at least two ways. Lost jobs mean governments collect less tax revenue. And they have to spend more on unemployment benefits, food stamps and other social programs. The federal governments tax collections this year are expected to fall to the lowest level since 1950 as a percentage of the economy. More than 40 million Americans a record 1 in 8 are receiving food stamps. Enrollment in Social Securitys disability program has shot up by more than 1 million people, or nearly 16 percent, since the recession struck in 2007. In part, thats because those who cant nd work are seeking government benets instead. If the economy were strong enough to reduce unemployment to a healthy 5.2 percent, next years federal budget deficit would be one-third lower than forecast, the Congressional Budget Ofce said this week. Worst off are local governments. Theyve been cutting services and jobs for the past two years. Over the past 12 months, localities have slashed 210,000 jobs.
WAGES:
A crippled labor market shifts bargaining power to employers. Workers have little leverage to seek raises. When adjusted for ination, pay was nearly 2 percent less in August than it was a year earlier,
WASHINGTON The jobs crisis isnt getting worse. But it isnt getting much better, either. The economy added just enough jobs last month to ease fears of a new recession. But hiring is still too weak to bring down unemployment, which has been stuck around 9 percent for more than two years.

Tigers outlast Gators Colts too

By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
What began as a defensive battle turned into an offensive shootout as the Terra Nova football team outlasted host Sacred Heart Prep, to post an impressive 44-30 win over the Gators in the Peninsula Athletic League Bay Division opener for both teams Friday afternoon. Terra Nova (1-0 PAL Bay, 3-2 overall) led just 16-9 at halftime and eventually built what appeared to be an insurmountable 37-9 lead, only to see Sacred Heart Prep (0-1, 4-1) put on an aerial show that had to impress the Tigers. The Gators scored three times in just over six minutes to trim their decit to 37-30 with 6:01 left to play, but the Tigers salted the game away with an 85-yard, ve-play scoring drive that culminated with Nick Manessis third touchdown catch of the day for the nal margin of victory. You have to take a look at what Sacred Heart Prep has done with their program. Coach Pete Lavorato has done a wonderful job here, said Terra Nova coach Bill Gray. This was two good football teams that have potent offenses. This was a long, high-paced game. If there was anyone who was going to get a good nights sleep its Manessis, who did everything but carry the water buckets back to the bus. He caught three touchdown passes, had ve receptions for 107 yards, had an interception from his safety position, kicked ve extra points and added a 32-yard eld goal. {Manessis] is a kid who has truly embraced being a two-way player, Gray said. He got worn out today. Playing in the Terra Novas high-octane, spread, hurry-up offense will fatigue not only the offense but defenses as well. Tigers quarterback Chris Forbes had a monster game, throwing three touchdown passes and running for two more. He was 15 for 17 for 296 yards in the rst half alone. He nished with a mind-boggling 409 yards passing on 24 of 35 attempts. Sacred Heart Preps Jack Larson nearly matched Forbes. Larson threw for 370 yards on 22 of 43 passing and threw four touchdowns. His main target, Pat Bruni, was nearly unstoppable, nishing with 12 catches for 248 yards and two touchdowns. Combined, the two teams racked up 977 yards of total offense. The Gators bread and butter, the running game, was shutdown, however, which proved to be the difference.
much for Hillsdale

By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The theme for the El Camino football team heading into their Peninsula Athletic League Lake Division opener against Hillsdale was: nish. Thats the thing we struggled with in the preseason, offensively and defensively, El Camino coach Mark Turner said. This week, we focused on getting people to the ball and nishing. The mindset of completion, along with a heavy dose of running back D.J. Peluso, was the difference in the Colts 33-14 road victory over the Knights. El Camino (1-0 PAL Lake, 3-2 overall) fell behind early, giving up a long touchdown drive to begin the game. But from then on, the Colts were in control. That initial drive by Hillsdale (0-1, 1-4) ate up eight minutes, covered 65 yards and resulted in a one-yard touchdown sneak by quarterback Yannis Tsagarakis. From there, the Knights, who were without standout running back Damien Carter the entire game, would only manage 14 more yards the rest of the half. Hillsdale is a team I really have a lot of respect for, Turner said. They put a lot of pressure on you because they spread the eld out so much. Theyre trying to get you in matchups in space. So, if you dont break down and tackle people in space, its going to be a long day for you. Early on, I was worried because they were moving the ball. But we stepped up and we nished. We were still getting used to some things on defense, said Peluso, who also plays linebacker. It took us a couple of plays to gure them out. But after that (drive) we pretty much locked them down. El Camino shut down Hillsdale, which was moving the ball rather easily between the 20s. But the Knights seemed to lack that extra push

which they beat three of Philadelphias four aces: Halladay, Cliff Lee and Roy Oswalt. Three of baseballs four opening-round matchups went to a deciding Game 5, and all of them were pitching-rich thrillers. Chris Carpenter Detroit held off the New York Yankees 3-2 on Thursday night, and Milwaukee beat Arizona in 10 innings earlier Friday. Then, the showdown between Carpenter and Halladay topped them all. Trailing two games to one, the Cardinals began their comeback with a win in Game 4.

After delivering an RBI single in the 10th inning to beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 3-2 Friday in Game 5 and send the Milwaukee Brewers to the NL championship series, Morgan was taking it all in and letting his oversized, oddball personality out. Its a lot, man, Morgan said. Basically just everything that Ive had to overcome, just the stuff that people go out there and perceive about me, everything. Just all my haters. I just wanted to show them that I can play this game, even though I have a fun, bubbly personality. I still come to win, and Im a winner. The Brewers would expect nothing less

PHILADELPHIA Chris Carpenter tossed a three-hitter to outpitch old pal Roy Halladay in a duel for the ages and the St. Louis Cardinals edged the Philadelphia Phillies 1-0 Friday night in the deciding Game 5 of their NL playoff series. The wild-card Cardinals scored in the rst inning when Rafael Furcal led off with a triple and Skip Schumaker followed with a double. And that was it. Heavily favored Philadelphia never broke through against Carpenter. Ryan Howard grounded out to end the game and hurt his leg coming out of the batters box he limped a couple of steps and crumpled to the ground as St. Louis started to celebrate. The Cardinals needed a monumental collapse by Atlanta in the nal month and major help from the 102-win Phillies just to reach the playoffs. Now theyre heading to Milwaukee for the NL championship series starting Sunday following a stunning upset in

Sequoia stuns Aragon

By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
After controlling the rst half, the Aragon football team was poised to open Peninsula Athletic League Ocean Division play with a big win over Sequoia until the Cherokees snatched the victory away from the Dons. Sequoia (1-0 PAL Ocean, 4-1 overall) trailed 21-6 after Aragon scored on its rst drive of the third quarter, the Cherokees out-scored the Dons 26-7 the rest of the way. Wow. Ill just go with wow, said Sequoia coach Rob Poulos. We had to get out of our own way early. While Sequoia quarterback Mike Taylor gouged the Aragon defense with 131 yards and three touchdowns on 18 carries, the play of the game came on defense for the Cherokees. After scoring to cut Aragons lead to two points, 28-26, the Cherokees tried a pooch kick. Aragons Greg Lyons called for a fair catch, caught the ball and got blasted, giving the Dons a rst down at the the Sequoia 47 with just over ve minutes to play in the game. On the next play, Sequoia line-
backer Josh Lauese timed the snap perfectly, leapt over the line of scrimmage and swallowed up Aragon quarterback Dominic Proia, causing him to fumble the ball, which was recovered by the Cherokees. Taylor did most of the damage on what turned out to be the game-winning drive, rst completing a 19-yard pass to Jeremy McIntyre and rushing for 26 yards as the Cherokees drove 47 yards on six plays, with Taylor going into the end zone from 11 yards out for the winning score. Our line just stepped it up, Taylor said, who also passed for 163 yards. Proias fumble was the third turnover of the night for the Dons and Aragon coach Steve Sell knew that is no way to win football games. I was very condent if theres no turnover there, we end the game with the ball, Sell said. When the guy (Lauese) came across the line of scrimmage, we had a guy assigned to him. For some reason, we didnt block him. After Aragon (0-1, 4-1) went up 21-6 on a Victor Jimenez 1-yard
plunge, Sequoia started its comeback on its next drive. Starting from their own 14, the Cherokees drove the length of the eld. Taylor completed a 28-yard pass to Oscar Alejandre and then had a 37-yard run to take the ball to the Aragon 10. Two plays later, Lauese bulled his way into the end zone from two yards out to cut Aragons lead to 2112. The Dons fumbled the ball away on their next possession and Sequoia took advantage, going 52 yards on just four plays, the key being a 37-yard run on a reverse from Matt Jenkins that took the ball to the Aragon 14. Lauese then went in from nine yards out to make the score Aragon 21, Sequoia 19. The Dons got a little breathing room by scoring on their next possession, an 80-yard, 10-play drive that culminated with a James Egan 10-yard run. Sequoia answered with an even more impressive drive, going 90 yards on nine plays, with Taylor capping the drive with a 2-yard scoring run.

Sequoia quarterback Mike Taylor accounted for 294 yards of total offense and scored three times in a 32-28 win over Aragon.
Carlmont shuts down San Mateo for first win

By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A bit of a breeze would be felt throughout the Carlmont football eld Friday afternoon following the Scots Peninsula Athletic League Lake Division opener against San Mateo.
It wasnt the wind though. It was Carlmont letting out a collective sigh of relief. The Scots rode the coattails of an impressive rst half of football and held off the Bearcats 21-12 to capture their rst win of the 2011 season. The victory comes after an 0-4 start that saw the Scots be outscored 132-76.
You have no idea, said Carlmont head coach Jason Selli. Its a huge sigh of relief. San Mateo put up 45 points last week and I was really concerned with how we were going to stop those guys, but our defense stepped up and played really well today. The bulk of the Carlmont effort came in the rst half, where they
limited the Bearcats to 59 yards of total offense and all but shut down the reigning Daily Journal Athlete of the Week in Michael Latu (7 carries, 20 yards). The Scots, on the other hand, could not be stopped in the games rst 24 minutes. Carlmont amassed 244 yards of total offense 204 of those came on the ground.
We had great balance today, said Carlmont quarterback Jack Karasky. Our O-line was working hard up in the trenches, opening holes for our running backs and our back were just running hard. Carlmont got on the scoreboard rst after dodging a bullet when the

ing season. Center elder Chris Young made a jaw-dropping catch in the sixth and the Diamondbacks had one last comeback left in the ninth. Im not ready to go home yet, Young said. Im not hanging my head because I think we could have done anything different. Im hanging my head just because I want to keep playing and I dont want the season to be over yet. Willie Bloomquist drove in the tying run with a safety squeeze, but Arizona was unable to forge ahead against closer John Axford. This was a great baseball game today. Im not happy to be on this end of it. Yet Im proud of my team and they played true to the way they played all year, Arizona manager Kirk Gibson said. And the Brewers, they cashed in on their opportunities, what can we say? We had tons of opportunities. Morgan was a critical addition for the Brewers this year and had several clutch hits, winning fans along the way. Nyjer got the biggest hit of his life, one of the biggest hits in Brewers history, Braun said. Were all proud, man. Its pretty cool. But Morgan wasnt having a particularly productive series until his big moment in the deciding game although he bristled at the suggestion that he was struggling.

and payrolls in the majors the Phillies and Yankees were gone in the rst round, even while holding home-eld advantage. Carpenter walked none and struck out three in the matchup of Cy Young Award winners who were longtime teammates in Toronto. The aces had already agreed to take a shing trip together after this season. Halladay was outstanding, too, but his year is over. Tagged by the rst two batters, he allowed six hits overall, striking out seven in eight innings. It wasnt good enough, and now manager Charlie Manuels team will certainly be considered a disappointment in their own town after failing to win a World Series in an all-ornothing season. The Phillies cruised to their fth straight NL East title and were hoping to add to the crown to the one they won in 2008. But nothing less than a second World Series championship in four years was going to be acceptable this season. Everyone from management to players to fans expected the Phillies to win it all. A sellout crowd that stood and screamed from the rst pitch held their heads in disbelief and silently walked out without even booing. The pesky Cardinals looked nothing like an underdog. They were the best team in the NL down the stretch.

With the game tied at 2 in the 10th and Carlos Gomez on second base with one out, Morgan hit a grounder up the middle and Diamondbacks closer J.J. Putz tried in vain to stop it with his leg. The ball went into center eld and Gomez sailed across home plate as a wild throw home went awry. Gomez was surprised when one of the rst people to greet him on the eld at raucous Miller Park was Brewers principal owner Mark Attanasio. You have to be smart, Gomez said.

Harbaugh tries to keep 49ers in check

By Janie McCauley
SAN FRANCISCO Jim Harbaugh would prefer people paid as little attention as possible to his improving San Francisco 49ers. Hes an under-the-radar kind of coach or so he pretends when it comes to all the hype. Thing is, the Niners (3-1) are alone in rst place in the NFC West. Theyre unbeaten on the road after a thrilling 24-23 comeback win last weekend at Philadelphia. They have talented Tampa Bay coming to town, another chance to make a statement about how much this franchise has changed for the better in a matter of months with Harbaugh in charge. He is beginning to reveal some personality during this transformation process, too, though Harbaugh strikes everybody as a hardnosed, football-obsessed coach. We just feel a more certain assurance of success when all thats written is written against us. Its when honey words of praise are flowered upon us that we begin to feel exposed before our enemies, said Harbaugh,
whose team is a 2 1/2point favorite Sunday. Im starting to get the feeling like theres too many nice things coming our way here. My coach in college said, Whenever people start talking nice about you, kick em in the Jim Harbaugh shins. Lets stop. Weve got to get back to work here and start concentrating on this football game, he said. Go back to yourselves. Go back to the list of everything thats negative. Play the negative quiz show. Huh? Basically, Harbaugh doesnt want his players digging themselves. He planned to make that a talking point this week in preparations for the Buccaneers. Tampa Bay (3-1) had a quick turnaround and a cross-country trek after beating Indianapolis 24-17 on Monday night. The Bucs are riding a three-game winning streak since a 27-20 loss to the unbeaten Lions
in their opener. This will be their longest trip yet and rst trip to the West Coast since a 2010 shutout of the Niners at Candlestick Park. As is his custom, Bucs coach Raheem Morris planned to bring his team to the Bay Area on Friday, a day earlier than usual so the players could get acclimated to the time change and recover from a long ight. Tampa Bay, with a share of the lead in the NFC South, is taking a similar approach to Harbaughs even after a key win over the Colts. In the grand scheme of things, at the time it was the most important game on our schedule, quarterback Josh Freeman said. Moving on, its just a W on our standings. Its just another win. I cant really value some wins more than others because that will set you up for a letdown. Success breeds complacency. A lot of teams fall into that trap. They go out and play well one week and then they get too high on themselves and they go out and lay an egg the next week, so were trying to stay as evenkeel as possible.
Alex Smith rallied San Francisco from a 17point halftime decit and 20 points down in the third quarter to stun Michael Vick and the Eagles in Week 4, going 13 for 17 for 201 yards and touchdown passes to Joshua Morgan and Vernon Davis after halftime. Smiths 154.3 quarterback rating over the nal two quarters was the highest in a second half by any QB this season. Now, the Niners will try to make sure they dont have another late-game meltdown at home. They blew a lead in a 27-24 overtime loss to the Dallas Cowboys on Sept. 18. Theres also the embarrassment of last years loss to the Bucs: 21-0. Troy Smith started that one at quarterback over Alex Smith. It marked Tampa Bays rst win in San Francisco since 1980 and only its second ever in 13 tries, ending an eight-game losing streak in the series. Thats why Harbaugh would rather be cautious. While his players certainly have adopted that same mindset, they also are enjoying being an upset team.

HOUSTON Great vision. Breakaway speed. Quick cutback ability. Sounds a lot like Arian Foster. It could just as easily describe Darren McFadden, the other running back in Sundays game between the top two rushing teams in the AFC. Or maybe not the other guy, considering McFadden leads the
league in yards gained on the ground through four weeks. With quarterbacks putting up prodigious passing numbers across the NFL, Oakland (2-2) and Houston (3-1) could offer a throwback to the time when teams controlled games with a good, old-fashioned rushing attack. Hopefully, as the season goes along, I think the league will get back to what it Darren was, Oakland coach Hue Jackson said. McFadden The teams that can throw the ball will always throw it pretty good. But I think when it gets late in the year, youve got to be able to run the ball. The Texans may have to turn to Foster out of necessity, with star receiver Andre Johnson out indenitely with a right hamstring injury. Johnson was hurt in the second quarter of last weeks win over Pittsburgh, and Foster ably carried the load, rushing 30 times for 155 yards. Houston coach Gary Kubiak was surprised at Fosters production in his rst full game since recovering from a left hamstring strain that bothered him for several weeks. Foster, the NFLs leading rusher last season, was inactive in two of the
rst three weeks. I trust him, and he came out of the game good, Kubiak said. I asked him (Wednesday) how hes feeling. He said, Other than being sore, I feel great. Thats a good sign because hes a better player the more he carries the ball. McFadden seems to be, too. The Raiders rst-round draft pick in 2008, McFadden has reached 150 yards in two of Oaklands rst four games and currently leads the league with 117 yards rushing per game. Hes averaging 6.2 yards per carry and also has a league-high six runs of over 20 yards, including a 70-yard dash against the New York Jets in Week 3. Houston defensive coordinator Wade Phillips compares McFadden to Hall of Famer Eric Dickerson. Hes that kind of runner, quick feet and a tremendous burst, Phillips said. But hes really powerful. He runs a little high, but you cant get to him. Hes a great runner. Now hes nally healthy, and you can see what he can do. The Raiders outrushed their opponents in two victories this season, and got outrushed in the two games they lost. Once were playing our A game, on point and on schedule, McFadden said, we feel like we match up with anybody in the league.

Schumaker was hitting against Philadelphia For a sellout crowd, it was a nutty diversion. The squirrel quickly became a fan favorite, and a Twitter account attributed to the critter has been active since Tuesday night. Vice president of stadium operations Joe Abernathy believes two or three squirrels have made their home at 6-year-old Busch Stadium. He said there is a public safety issue, and added that stadium ofcials dont want any interruptions in play. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch and KMOX Radio ran 13 plays, eating up 7:42 off the clock and punching the ball in on a fourth-and-goal from the one-yard line to take the 14-7 lead. After shutting down the Knights on their ensuing drive, the Colts would add to that lead on another big play courtesy of Mathiesen, who doubled his previous effort and tossed a 61-yard touchdown pass. The ball was actually fumbled by El Camino and recovered in the end zone for the score to make it 21-7. All the while, the Colts continued to pound the football with Peluso. The running back nished the night with 185 yards on 23 carries and two touchdowns. I always expect success, Peluso said. Iit doesnt matter what team we play against. I want to be a team leader (and) I have high goals and expectaJust before halftime, the Dons went to a trick play to take a 14-6 lead with eight seconds left in the rst half. On second down from the Sequoia 32, Egan took a handoff and started to sweep right. He pulled up and lofted a pass downeld that Greg Lyons hauled in at the 7 and then twisted and dragged a couple Sequoia defenders into the end zone. Except for the turnovers, I thought we played well, Sell said. In this league, with everyone being so even, its going to come down to turnovers. (http://cbsloc.al/r0Aiit ) reported that seven traps have been set up by the team groundskeeper to catch the squirrel or squirrels. The traps are baited with peanut butter, then a gate closes behind it. The squirrel can then be taken elsewhere. The squirrel that dashed across the plate jumped to the box seats and safety in the fth inning of Game 4 Wednesday night. Earlier in that game, a squirrel was sighted on a walkway just past the green expanse beyond the center eld wall, and another was seen along foul territory down the third-base line. tions for myself. Our whole thing with him this week was nishing, Turner said. This week I was trying to get him to nish downhill with power instead of going around guys. Hillsdale got within two scores with 9:17 left in the game on a 16-yard touchdown run by Tsagarakis. But a big return on the kickoff set El Camino up with the ball inside Hillsdale territory and Peluso put the nail in the cofn with a 15-yard score, making it 33-14. We had to come out successful tonight, Peluso said. Because our ultimate goal is to get to CCS. We have to take it one game at a time and come out with high intensity.

Rally squirrel or not, Busch critter has to go
ST. LOUIS The Busch Stadium Rally Squirrel may need to nd a new home. Ballpark ofcials are trying to a catch a squirrel that ran onto the eld during both games of the NL playoffs in St. Louis this week, including a scamper across home plate as the Cardinals Skip
TIGERS
They wore us down, said Lavorato. We couldnt run the ball. Give all the credit to [Terra Nova]. We just couldnt stop them. After Manessis kicked his eld goal to give Terra Nova a 3-0 lead, Sacred Heart Prep actually took its only lead of the game on its next possession. Facing a fourth-and-2 at the Terra Nova 17, Larson hit Ryan Gaertner on a post route in the end zone for a 7-3 Gators lead with 3:37 to play in the rst quarter. The Tigers took the lead for good on their next possession with Manessis hauling in a 15-yard scoring strike from Forbes in the back of the end zone. The Gators cut their decit to a point, 10-9, when Fatu Tupou and Mark Hardy sacked Forbes in the end zone for a safety, but Forbes and Manessis gave the Tigers some breathing room just before halftime when they hooked up for a 32-yard scoring strike. And then the reworks began. Terra Nova scored three touchdowns inside of ve minutes to take a commanding 37-9 lead: Forbes ran in from 5 yards out, hit Ryan Virgin for a 9-yard scoring pass and then scored from a yard out. Sacred Heart Prep responded by scoring three quick touchdowns in succession: Larson hooked up with Tyler McCool for a 40-yard catch-and-run, hit Bruni with a 15-yard scoring pass moments before the two connected again, this time going for a 48-yard score. In the end, Sacred Heart Prep ran out of time. We let them back in it. We have to put away teams late in the game, Manessis said. (We lost focus) a little bit (as the Gators rallied). We have to realize the games not over yet.
COLTS
offensively that would equalize the game. Quarterback Richie Mathiesen and his arm would come up big for the Colts. His pass to Evan Turner with 33 seconds left in the half was good for a 31-yard touchdown. After the extra points, things were tied at seven and El Camino would take the momentum into the third quarter. The Colts would capitalize on that right out of the locker room to start the second half by going on a marathon-ish drive of their own, much like Hillsdale had done to start the game. El Camino
CHEROKEES
In the rst half, Aragon went on two long scoring drives to take a 14-6 lead at halftime. Jimenez rammed into the end zone from a yard out to go up 7-0 to cap a 12-play, 63-yard drive with 2:35 left in the rst half. Sequoia responded by going 80 yards on 12 plays. A missed extra point kept the Dons ahead, 7-6.
South City 41, Menlo School 21

Anthony Shkuratov rushed for 149 yards and three touchdowns on 21 carries to propel the Warriors to a convincing win over the Knights. Kevin Cunha also had a big game for South City (1-0 PAL Ocean, 5-0 overall), rushing for 144 yards and two touchdowns on 20 carries. The Warriors defense, led by Anthony Amperosa and Tavita Faaiu who combined for ve sacks, held Menlo (0-1, 4-1) to three touchdowns and quarterback Jack Heneghan to 161 passing on 13 of 23 attempts.

available to play in this two-game stretch of friendlies, rst in Miami, then on Tuesday at Harrison, N.J. against Ecuador. The one glaring exception to that is Landon Donovan, who will miss the matches with a strained right quadriceps. Still, there will be plenty of veterans ready to go, including captain Carlos Bocanegra (who enters the weekend four shy of 100 international appearances for his career), and even onetime national-team regular DaMarcus Beasley who hasnt appeared for the national team since June 23, 2010 against Algeria, the World Cup match best remembered for Donovans spectacular late-game winner off a rebound in front of the net. Looking to hopefully get my feet wet with the national team again, Beasley said. Its been a while since I put on a jersey. Hopefully I get a chance this weekend. Hes earned his chance by reinventing himself, happily going to Mexico and competing for a team where almost no one speaks any English. Beasley isnt exactly uent in Spanish, though hes trying to learn. It shows you his character, his willingness to ght through different environments and through difcult moments, Klinsmann said. I think you see a far more mature DaMarcus Beasley now than you probably saw a couple years ago, which is natural.

Klinsmann looking for first U.S.win SCOTS

Scots fumbled and lost the football to San Mateo deep in their territory. The Scots held, forcing a turnover on downs and then capped off that defensive stand when Karasky carried the ball on a bootleg to his right, picked up a pair of blocks down the sideline and scampered in from 41 yards out for the 7-0 lead. San Mateo responded on the ensuing drive after an onside kick attempt by Carlmont didnt go as planned, giving the Bearcats the ball on the Scots 45. Two plays into the second quarter, Trevor Brill snuck across the goal line from a yard out to make it 7-6 following a missed extra point attempt. The Scots went right back at San Mateo on the next drive. On the 10th play of the drive, it was Karasky once again using his legs, going right then cutting back across the eld and crossing into the end zone from 20 yards away. The touchdown gave the Scots a 14-6 lead going into halftime. He did a really good job making smart decisions, Selli said of Karasky, who nished the half with 80 yards rushing on only three carries. They were like walking zombies out there, said San Mateo coach Jeff Scheller of
MIAMI Jurgen Klinsmann made his mark in soccer by being one of the most prolic goal scorers the game has ever seen. The U.S. could use his scoring knack right about now. Since Klinsmann took over as coach of the U.S. national team this summer, the Americans have one goal in three matches and no wins yet, either, settling for two losses and a tie. They get a chance to change all of that in Miami on Saturday night against Honduras, a team that reached the 2010 World Cup and may very well be an opponent for the U.S. on the way through qualifying for the 2014 tournament. The players at the end of the day, they make the calls, Klinsmann said. They decide on the eld if they want to shoot it, if they want to dribble it, if they want to pass. They will make the difference. And we want to just guide them to a situation where they take their own careers in their own hands and be comfortable about it and condent. Such is the process Klinsmann has talked about almost nonstop since taking over for Bob Bradley and getting tasked with nding a way for the Americans to reach that proverbial next level. Hell have most of the best American options
his teams first half performance. And Carlmont took advantage of that. Carlmont did a really good job defensively. Offensively we couldnt do much. To the Bearcats credit, the second half was a completely different story defensively as they only surrendered 114 yards. But Carlmont still had their number on defense. Brill was able to nd a few holes in the secondary come the second half. He hooked up with Latu, Alex Strathearn and eventually Andrew Ho. But it was an extended drive by the Scots, in which they didnt score but knocked off a huge chunk of the clock in the latter part of the third and early fourth quarters, that proved to the difference. Brill would hook up with Ho on two completions inside the Carlmont 30, the latter an 11-yard touchdown toss, to make it 21-12. Brill nished with 137 yards passing, completing 7 of 12 passes. Carlmont overcame 11 penalties and a pair of fumbles in the game. This win is great, Karasky said. It raises everyones spirits going into the week of practice. And its league. This is where it really counts. Were a 1-0 football team right now the rst win is always the hardest. San Mateo stays winless at 0-4-1.

Woods makes it to the weekend at CordeValle

By Doug Ferguson
SAN MARTIN, Calif. The fog finally lifted at CordeValle and revealed a Tiger Woods that looked vaguely familiar. Woods ran off three straight birdies early in his round, survived a rough patch around the turn and
kept the stress to a minimum Friday in his round of 3-under 68 in the Frys.com Open that assured he would be around for the weekend. I dont like missing cuts, period, Woods said. If I miss the cut, that means you cant win the tournament on the weekend. Ive got a shot at it this weekend. He still was seven shots behind Paul Casey, who is making a revival
of his own. Casey, at No. 135 on the money list and in danger of losing his PGA Tour card, has been ghting a foot injury since the middle of May. He showed signs of getting better by winning in South Korea last week, and then he got over jet lag in time to post a 7-under 64. That put him at 8-under 134. Bud Cauley, who turned pro this summer
and is trying to avoid having to go to Q-school, had a 66 and was one shot behind. Fog delayed the start of the second round by 2 hours, 20 minutes, meaning it would not nish until Saturday. Ernie Els, a surprise entry to this Fall Series event, made a steady move up the leaderboard and had an 8-foot birdie putt to tie for the lead on the 16th hole. He missed it and
was at 7 under, and will have two holes to play Saturday. Woods was so disgusted this his putting after his opening 73 that he went to the practice green in the chill of late afternoon after the rst round and rapped 5-foot putts, sometimes using only one hand. He also put two strips of lead tape on the bottom of his putter, and it seemed to pay off.

ts a weird feeling no longer having to agonize over the SATs since they have been all I thought about for the past three years. Last Saturday, I took the SATs for the last time. It wasnt until after the grueling four-hour long test that I came to that realization. It dawned on me that I am now in this period of my life when every little thing will be a last. The last time I will take the SATs, the last fall season I will live with my parents and the last year I will be considered a minor. All of these things have made me realize that I, sooner than later, will be grown up. Not too long ago, all I could think about was studying for the SATs and all I wanted was for college application season to be over. I wished for the next few months to just y right by so the rst semester of my senior year would be over and all my applications would be done. But now, all I can imagine is where I will be a year from now. Instead of having the safe and cozy feeling of my home to return to, I will be returning to a dorm room that will be my new home. I will no longer have my mothers home-cooked meals waiting for me when I get home, nor will I have the luxury of calling my dad into my room to x my computer whenever it crashes. The mere thought of these things makes me wish I never had to grow up. But essentially, living at college will force me to grow up and learn to do things for myself. Next year, I will ofcially no longer be considered a child. I will have nally reached adulthood and be able to vote, go into the military and get tattoos among other things that come with reaching 18 years of age. But do all these things really constitute being an adult? Does being a legal adult make you all grown up? Being in college and 18 will pres-

Ragebrings fireworks,but story fizzles

By Lou Kesten
Wolfenstein. Doom. Quake. Theyre all landmark titles in the history of video games, and they dened an entire genre: the rst-person shooter. The studio that created them, Dallas-based id Software, has been relatively quiet since 2004s Doom 3. But id has nally returned with Rage (Bethesda, for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PC, $59.99), and fans will be delighted to discover it hasnt lost its touch for trigger-happy mayhem. Rage takes place in the sort of post-disaster wasteland that has become a bit of a cliche. In 2029, the hero was put into suspended animation before an asteroid struck Earth. When he awakens centuries later, the surface has been overrun by bandits, mutants, cannibals and other miscreants. In an earlier id game, your goal would be simple: Kill em all. Indeed, Rage doesnt skimp on opportunities to ll your enemies with lead. You can run screaming into a refight, flinging grenades and automatic weapons re every which way. Or you can take a more cautious approach, taking out foes one-by-one with well-placed sniper bullets. While the weapons dont get too exotic, theyre well differentiated. A shotgun has a beefy kick to it, while a rapid-re machine gun is more difcult to control. You can also build turrets and sentry robots, which become valuable sidekicks when foes become too much for your lone gunman. There are only a few enemy types, but they come after you in many ways. Some kill from afar. Some heavily armored guards march relentlessly toward you. And the most agile mutants jump you en masse. The animation and articial intelligence are terric, making
all your antagonists seem like living (and dying) creatures with their own unpredictable attack patterns. At its core, Rage is a series of environments caverns, a factory, a prison lled with things to shoot. There are a few short detours, but the paths are almost entirely linear. Still, other activities prevent the game from feeling like one long trudge toward the inevitable. You get access early on to a dune buggy equipped with guns and homing rockets, and its a kick to chase bandit vehicles around the wasteland. At two locations you can sign up for competitive races; a few are straightforward, but most turn into demolition derbies. There are also side jobs that you can take on for cash. And there are several gambling events, including an addictive collectible card game and the ever delightful ve-nger llet. Such side quests as well as the colorful but cramped towns where youll nd them create the impression that Rage is an openworld adventure like Grand Theft Auto or Fallout. But that initial sense of freedom turns out to be an illusion, and its disappointing to discover that you dont really have much choice in determining how the story unfolds. And the ending, which is blatantly written to set up a sequel, arrives so abruptly that I was taken aback when the credits started rolling. In the four years since Rage was rst announced, its post-apocalyptic setting has been used more effectively in adventures like Fallout 3 and Borderlands. Still, it does deliver plenty of thrills. Despite its disappointing story, I had a lot of fun and Im looking forward to Rage 2. Three stars out of four.

New Zealands Stewart Island a thrill

By Dennis Passa
INVERCARGILL, New Zealand Pilot Raymond Hector banks his nine-passenger Britten-Norman Islander wide over the Southern Ocean heading for a beach landing at Mason Bay on rugged Stewart Island, a 20minute ight from New Zealands southernmost city, Invercargill, and a cornerstone of the Southland tourism district. Minutes later, skimming only 50 feet above the sand, traveling at 120 miles per hour, with a rocky outcrop on the left and sea surf pounding on the right, the plane appears to be running out of room for a landing. Suddenly Hector pulls up a sharp left, cascades over a coastal range, and does another circuit of the beach before making a spectacular sandy touchdown a few minutes later. Its only just after 7 a.m., but the passengers have had their first adrenaline rush of the day, and perhaps one of the best of their lifetime. All part of the experience, just a gentle pull-up, says the former Air New Zealand pilot, smiling and realizing that its somewhat of an understatement. We do a beach inspection, just to see what shape the sand is in. We can tell by the color whether its soft or hard, and most people get a bit of a kick out of it. The same could be said for the entire experience on the Jurassic Park-like island which also features a combination of fossilized and lush rainforests and clear, pristine bays. In 2002, 85 percent of the island was designated as Rakiura National Park, named for an indigenous Maori word meaning Land of the Glowing Skies. Stewart Island is just 67 square miles in size, about the same geographically as Singapore. But Singapore has a population of 5 million. Stewart Island has only 300 to 400 year-round residents, most around the township of Oban. The number swells to more than 3,000 in the Southern Hemisphere summer. But its a nite population in the peak season around Christmas, with Hector and the local ferries from Invercargill having to cut incoming service to the island. We can get them there, but there wont be anywhere for them to stay once we do, says Hector.
Stewart Island is just 67 square miles in size, about the same geographically as Singapore. But Singapore has a population of 5 million. Stewart Island has only 300 to 400 year-round residents,most around the township of Oban.
The island is known, among other things, as home to the highest per capita number of millionaires in New Zealand, most of whom remain low-key and mix with the locals as if they had no money in their pockets. One, in retirement, started up an island spring water business which is thriving on the mainland. Its prots help support local environmental projects like Ulva Island, an eight-minute water taxi ride from the main island. Ulva has been predator-free since 1997, allowing for a wide range of native birds such as brown kiwi and fernbirds to ourish. Locally caught sh is also part of the island experience. Hector, speaking outside the quaint South Sea Hotel, recalled catching some blue cod and taking them into the restaurant there. They battered them, threw in a few chips and a bit of lemon and we sat down to eat. It was like 40 minutes from the time the sh were minding their own business until we were having them for lunch, he said. Back on the nearby mainland, the southern coastline offers great hiking, or tramping, as it is often called in New Zealand. For the serious enthusiasts, the Tuatapere Hump Ridge track offers a three-day walk from beach to mountaintop. The town of Bluff is known for its plump oysters, and Invercargill, a city of 50,000, also known as The Friendly City, offers heritage buildings, museums and the Queens Park botanical gardens. A back-room visit to the boutique Invercargill Brewery shows six large tanks representing the companys line of beers. Brewmaster Steve Nally explains that its a never-ending battle to withstand takeover attempts from the two biggest multinational breweries in Australasia. We want to call our own shots, says Nally. Hector ies several times a day between Invercargill and Stewart Island, and as he swoops over the islands interior, he points out areas that look positively untouched. Ive been down here for many, many years, and nobody has ever set foot in some of these remote areas, Hector says. This area is positively Jurassic. You get the sun in the right place and if a dinosaur was to poke his head out, it wouldnt surprise me.

Guest houses, bed and breakfasts and lodges on the island include the iconic South Sea Hotel at Half Moon Bay. The island has no banks or ATMs, though most establishments accept credit cards. forced to team up on a parenting project with the chubby, closeted Clarke (newcomer Jeremy Dozier). Turns out both have daddy issues she never knew hers, hes suffered a lifetime of bullying from his (played by Dwight Yoakam) which prompts them to hop in a car and drive to Fresno, Calif. This is where Danielle thinks her father now lives, and she longs to meet him, even though her trashy, trailerdwelling mother (Milla Jovovich) told her that the man walked out on them long ago and never looked back. Shed rather build a new life with a kind but much-older Mormon (played by a weirdly rigid William H. Macy). Their road trip is lled with cliches of the genre: singing along to the radio, meeting a life-altering drifter, running out of gas. Sylvia plays it all for glib laughs, with Danielle getting by on charm and bravado while Clarke clings to romantic notions of what his life should be like complete with a Melissa Manchester soundtrack. (Calling the lms talent-show nale cringeworthy doesnt even begin to describe it.) Thats why its so surprising when Dirty Girl reaches its climactic confrontation in California. Its surprisingly affecting, and is packed with such emotional honesty that you wish Sylvia hadnt stored it all up for the very end. Dirty Girl, a Weinstein Co. release, is rated R for sexual content including graphic nudity, and for language. Running time: 89 minutes. Two stars out of four.

Sylvia does infuse his lm with a amboyantly cheeky theatricality, from the opening titles to the obligatory road-trip sing-along.

Great cast leads smart, uneven Ides

By Christy Lemire
When powerful men amass their armies and go to battle in a tight political race, even the most idealistic and fervent political junkies may nd their faith tested, if not obliterated. It is an ugly, cynical business, full of ambitious people who will do whatever they must to survive. This is the not-so-shocking point of The Ides of March, the latest lm George Clooney has directed, based on the 2008 play Farragut North. Its meaty and weighty and relevant, exactly the kind of material that appeals to Clooney, and to fans of Clooney. But it doesnt tell us much that we didnt already know, or at least suspect, about the people we place our trust in to lead us in the right direction come election time. And it features a major and distracting twist that undermines all the serious-mindedness that came before it. Clooney is such an excellent actor himself, though here he plays a supporting role as a Pennsylvania governor seeking the Democratic presidential nomination and hes such a smart, efcient director, he really knows how to get the best out of his cast. And it would seem difcult to go wrong with a cast like this. Philip Seymour Hoffman tears it up as the governors gruff, no-nonsense campaign manager, a veteran whos seen it all and still continues to come back for more. Paul Giamatti is reliably smarmy as Hoffmans counterpart for the rival Democratic candidate, and watching these two acting heavyweights eyeball each other backstage at a debate provides an early, juicy thrill. (Jennifer Ehle is unfortunately wasted in just one scene as the governors dutiful wife.) But the real star is Ryan Gosling as Stephen Myers, a young, up-and-coming strategist and press secretary who works for Clooneys Gov. Mike Morris. As he did earlier this year in Crazy Stupid Love, Gosling radiates charisma, schmoozing and charming reporters
Five best Clooney films

By Christy Lemire
LOS ANGELES A couple of weeks ago, we looked back on the eclectic career of Brad Pitt, and marveled at the intelligence of his choices as well as his instinct to shun his moviestar persona while still giving the people what they want. Pitts friend and co-star in the Oceans movies, George Clooney, has shown similar tastes and daring both in front of and behind the camera. And in the process of staying true to his beliefs, hes carved out one of the most respected careers in town. This week, he directs the political drama The Ides of March and plays a supporting role as a governor seeking the Democratic presidential nomination. So heres a look at his ve best performances. As you can probably guess, Id vote for him for anything:
Michael Clayton(2007):
Clooney gives a smart, subtly powerful performance in the title role as a xer at a prestigious New York law rm. Hes a man whos been around a long time and seen it all. He carries the cumulative weight of a lifetime of disappointments in his eyes, his voice, the way his shoulders hunch. And yet, Michael still responds prociently and professionally to whatever challenge is thrust upon him. All the best of what Clooney can do is on display here: the dazzling charisma as well as the vulnerability. Writer-director Tony Gilroy gives Clooney an opportunity to do some of the best work of his career in a part thats meaty but rarely ashy.
The Ides of Marchfollows the nal,frantic days before the Ohio Democratic primary.
and staffers with equal ease. But beneath that slick exterior, his character is a true believer. And Morris, with his great looks, smooth voice and progressive platitudes, seems to him like the real deal. Finally. The Ides of March, which Clooney co-wrote with his frequent collaborator, Grant Heslov, and Farragut North playwright Beau Willimon, follows the final, frantic days before the Ohio Democratic primary. The nuts-and-bolts grunt work and the daily machinations and manipulations of a political campaign consistently ring true. Clooney is as interested in process as personalities, which was evident in the last lm he directed, 2005s Good Night, and Good Luck, and that balance gives his work an authenticity. With The Ides of March, he is once again opening a portal to a specic world that he clearly takes seriously and cares a great deal about. Thats why its such a letdown when the whole endeavor turns tawdry toward the end. We wont give away the details of the twist, but lets just say it involves a sexy, 20-year-old intern played by a coolly seductive Evan Rachel Wood. The actions and motivations in this subplot are entirely unbelievable, and the very idea of it feels like an easy way to inject melodrama. And thats a problem, since this characters choices are crucial to a series of events that culminate in the lms climax. If The Ides of March had just been about intense, powerful people and the conict between ideals and reality, it would have provided vital and vibrant entertainment. Still, Goslings journey feels believable, despite the narrative potholes along the way. The lost, disillusioned look on his face in the lms nal shot especially in contrast with the condence he exuded in a similar closeup at the start says it all. The Ides of March, a Columbia Pictures release, is rated R for pervasive language. Running time: 98 minutes. Two and a half stars out of four.
Syriana(2005):
Clooney famously cast aside his dashing good looks, gaining 30 pounds in 30 days, growing a beard and shaving his hairline to play Bob Barnes, a ctionalized version of former CIA ofcer Robert Baer. He was unrecognizable, a crucial piece in writer-director Stephen Gaghans dense and complicated lm about the global oil industry, and the performance earned him the Academy Award for best supporting actor. Clooney was so dedicated, he severely injured his back shooting a torture scene, and was still hurt while directing and costarring in Good Night, and Good Luck. This is a prime example of his willingness to reject the glamour of being a movie star in favor of doing smart, challenging work.
Out of Sight(1998):
Trading snappy banter with a tough-but-feminine Jennifer Lopez, Clooney was sexy as hell as a career bank robber in

Three women share Nobel

By Karl Ritter and Bjoern H. Amland
Apple unlikely to be seller of Jobs bio

By Hillel Italie
OSLO, Norway Leymah Gbowee confronted armed forces in Liberia to demand that they stop using rape as a weapon. Ellen Johnson Sirleaf became Africas rst woman to win a free presidential election. Tawakkul Karman began pushing for change in Yemen long before the Arab Spring. They share a commitment to womens rights in regions where oppression is common, and on Friday they shared the Nobel Peace Prize. The Norwegian Nobel Committee honored women for the rst time in seven years, and in selecting Karman it also recognized the Arab Spring movement championed by millions of often anonymous activists from Tunisia to Syria. Prize committee chairman Thorbjoern Jagland said it would have been difcult to identify all the movements leaders, and that the committee was making an additional statement by selecting Karman to represent their cause. We have included the Arab Spring in this prize, but we have put it in a particular context, Jagland told reporters. Namely, if one fails to include the women in the revolution and the new democracies, there will be no democracy. Karman is the rst Arab woman ever to win the peace prize, which includes a 10 million kronor ($1.5 million) award that will be divided among the winners. No woman or subSaharan African had won the prize since 2004, when the committee honored Wangari Maathai of Kenya, who mobilized poor women to fight deforestation by planting trees.

A combination photograph shows the three 2011 Nobel Peace Prize winners; (from left to right) Liberian Nobel Peace Prize winner Leymah Gbowee in New York;Yemeni Tawakul Karman in Sanaa and Liberian President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf in Monrovia. Gbowee, Johnson-Sirleaf and Karman ,who have campaigned for rights and an end to violence in Liberia and Yemen, won the Nobel Peace Prize on Friday,the head of the Norwegian Nobel Committee said.
I am very, very happy about this prize, said Karman, who has been campaigning for the ouster of Yemens authoritarian President Ali Abdullah Saleh since 2006. I give the prize to the youth of revolution in Yemen and the Yemeni people. Sirleaf, 72, won Liberias presidential election in 2005 and is credited with helping the country emerge from an especially brutal civil war. She is running for re-election Tuesday in what has been a tough campaign, but Jagland said that did not enter into the committees decision to honor her. This gives me a stronger commitment to work for reconciliation, Sirleaf said Friday from her home in Monrovia, the capital. She said Liberians should be proud that both she and Gbowee were honored. Leymah Gbowee worked very hard with women in Liberia from all walks of life to challenge the dictatorship, to sit in the sun and in the rain advocating for peace, Sirleaf said. I believe we both accept this on behalf of the Liberian people and the credit goes to them. Gbowee, who took a ight to New York on Friday, said she was shocked to learn she had won. Everything I do is an act of survival for myself, for the group of people that I work with, she said. So if you are surviving, you dont take you survival strategies or tactics as anything worth of a Nobel.
NEW YORK Blockbuster sales are expected for Walter Isaacsons authorized biography of Steve Jobs when it comes out later this month, with independents and chains alike expecting it to be the biggest nonction release of the year. But one seller, announced with great publicity a year and a half ago and very close to Jobs own story, is unlikely to have a major impact in e-book sales: Apples Steve Jobs iBookstore. Isaacsons book, which debuts Oct. 24 from Simon & Schuster, jumped to No. 1 on Amazon and to the top 5 on Barnes & Noble.com within hours of Apples announcement Wednesday that Jobs had died. Steve Jobs also went to No. 1 on the iBookstore, but the number of sales will be comparatively small for the iBookstore. Publishers had hoped that the iPad and the Apple store would counter the power of Amazon.com, which had dominated the growing e-market through its Kindle device. But Apples effect on books so far has not approached its force in the music business. Amazons share has been cut, less by Apple than by Barnes & Nobles Nook, widely believed to have more than 20 percent of esales despite initially poor reviews. Amazon still has some 50 percent to 60 percent of the market, while Apple is generally believed to have from 10 percent to 15 percent. The idea of having to grow up so soon is a scary one, and eventually, every child will have to make that frightening transition into adulthood. Even though leaving home and pursing college life is bittersweet for me, I still believe being a college freshman next year will give me the opportunity to explore my new found freedom and learn how to do things on my own.

ent me with a handful of new responsibilities I didnt have in high school. I will most likely not be ready to be thrown into adulthood. I wont be ready to pay the bills or to take care of a family but perhaps the real beauty of college is being able to balance the right amount of new responsibilities that come with adulthood.

BROWN
year as part of the budget deal and was pushed by former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Republican lawmakers. It would require the Legislature to set aside money in years when California has a budget surplus, a constraint opposed by public employee unions and most Democratic lawmakers. SB202 has drawn complaints from Republican lawmakers who call it a power grab by union interests seeking to delay antilabor ballot initiatives that could end up on the June ballot, which features the GOP presidential primary. This kind of political game-playing sends a clear message that the governor and legislative Democrats have no intention of working in a bipartisan manner, Senate Minority Leader Bob Dutton, R-Rancho Cucamonga, said in a statement Friday. Assembly GOP leader Connie Conway of Tulare also criticized the governor for pushing his partisan agenda. In signing the bill by state Sen. Loni Hancock, D-Berkeley, Brown returns the initiative process to its original intent. It was not until 1970 that initiatives were placed on the primary ballot, partly because so many were qualifying. Moving all initiatives back to the general election will allow more voters to weigh in on issues of statewide consequence. Brown called that the essence of direct democracy. The governor noted that in 2010, 10.3 million Californians voted in the general election compared to just 5.7 million in the primary. A recent poll conducted by the Field Poll found 56 percent of California voters, including majorities of Democrats, Republicans and

independents, supported the switch. This measure restores the original understanding of constitutional law that initiatives were to be considered at a general election or at a special election called for critical questions requiring swift solution by the people, Brown wrote. And while he said a rainy day fund is prudent, Brown also said forcing the state to set aside billions of dollars would divert muchneeded money from education and public safety because revenues are coming in at historic lows. Families cant put money into a savings account when they cant pay their bills, and neither should the state, Brown wrote. In a related development Friday, a group calling itself the Stop Special Interest Money Now campaign announced it had submitted enough signatures to qualify a measure banning corporate and labor union contributions to candidates. The proposed ballot initiative also would make employee political contributions voluntary and prevent corporations and labor groups from what the group calls coercive means to collect political funds from employees and union members. Weigh-Off happening Monday. The winner takes home a $100 Safeway gift card. And this year, event spokesman Tim Beeman noted Santa Rosa grower Russ Pughs Atlantic Giant pumpkin is measuring at a size that could break the world record. The weigh-off began in 1974 when ofcials from Half Moon Bay challenged Circleville, Ohio which then proclaimed itself Pumpkin Capital of the World to a competition in search of the worlds biggest pumpkin. John Minaidis of Half Moon Bay won that year with a 132-pound pumpkin. Half Moon Bay is now the World Pumpkin Capital. In 2001, the pumpkins began tipping the scale at more than 1,000 pounds. Last years winner, Ron Root from Citrus Heights, boasted a 1,535-pound Atlantic Giant. This years winning pumpkin, along with several other monster gourds, will be on display during the Half Moon Bay Art and Pumpkin Festival next weekend from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Main Street. The pumpkin weigh-off takes place 7 a.m. to 11 a.m. Monday, Oct. 10 on the IDES Grounds, 735 Main St. in Half Moon Bay. The festival will take place from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Oct. 15 and Oct. 16 on Main Street in Half Moon Bay.

Ryan jets across the country, handing out pink slips without batting an eye and worrying only about increasing his frequent-ier miles. He breezes through life efciently, and Clooneys naturally masculine energy gives the character real zing, but he also nds the soulfulness thats eventually required of the role, as well.
APP
we can pull together and make it a better place. Thats part of the reason I did this. Launched just in time for the pumpkin season, the app started as a New Years resolution. Falcone didnt specically set out to create a locally-based application about pumpkins. Once he and his teams saw that the timeline for such a goal would work, however, they got to work. Thankfully for Falcone, the community was all for the idea of a virtual way to help tourists navigate while also getting information to people. The app, for example, allows the San Mateo County Sheriffs Ofce to send out notications if there is a lost child or severe trafc problems. App users can also use the four-layer map to nd food, fun, basic information and rest rooms. Its also a partnership supporting local businesses, the Chamber of Commerce and the Half Moon Bay Review, said Falcone who hopes this is the rst of many festival applications his company can create. For this weekend only, users can log on and make a guess of the biggest pumpkins weight at the Safeway World Championship Pumpkin
CLOONEY
Steven Soderberghs funny and surprising lm. The scene in which the two irt at a hotel bar, with its warm lighting and attering close-ups, is probably the movies best-known and it crackles with romantic tension. But Clooney is called upon to do much more than smolder. Out of Sight ranges from buddy comedy to gripping suspense to sultry noir, and Clooney has the versatility to keep up with all those varying genres. Hes probably a bad guy and hes most certainly unreliable, but hes also irresistible. Clooney makes that contrast work.
Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009):

Clooneys work here also appeared on my list of the ve best animated performances. Up in the Air earned him an Oscar nomination for best actor that year, but hes just as memorable behind the microphone lending his smooth voice to the starring role of the crafty Mr. Fox. He brings all that charm in the richness of his delivery, all his signature smarts and presence to director Wes Andersons beautifully detailed stop-motion animation. And merely the idea of this handsome man playing a furry, little woodland creature albeit a clever one with a sly sense of humor is enough to bring a huge smile to your face.
Up in the Air (2009):

Clooney is at the height of his dynamism here as a man who makes a living by ring other people. This would seem like an insurmountable contradiction, but Jason Reitmans lm eshes out the character, Ryan Bingham, with shadings and subtlety, and Clooney gets

Certain factors or elements that will pass your way in the coming months and that are meaningless to others could be great contributors to your success. Watch for the unusual, discarded and forgotten to provide some tasty opportunities. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Usually it can be more effective to use a soft sell, but if this isnt the case for you at this point dont hesitate to assert your points and/or position. Go for the mattresses, and youll end up quite comfy. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Working in close conjunction with a cohort can make things easier for
both of you, but if you have to do an assignment all on your own, dont fret. Youll do a bang-up job. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Even if you get off to a tardy start, youll still be capable of accomplishing all that you want to get done. You should be remarkably efficient and productive. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- As much as you may be tempted to burn the candle at both ends, it may not be such a good idea to do so. Your energy, initiative and luck may all have their limitations, and besides, youre low on wax. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Tasks that are too difficult or more than anyone wants to handle could all be dumped in your lap. Yet itll be exactly these kinds of jobs that put you in such a good light with the powers that be.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Listen carefully when conversing with friends. There is a good chance that some kind of information could be mentioned in passing that is meaningless to others but very valuable to you. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- By utilizing your smarts in all your endeavors, both in business-related issues as well as personal ones, this can be one of your more successful days. Keep your gray cells a-popping. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Just because a difficult objective isnt achieved on your first try doesnt mean you should chuck the old terry cloth. Your resolve and persistence could pay off. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- By doing what you said you would do, you will show others just how
trustworthy and reliable you really are. Its our mode of behavior that wins us the respect of our peers. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Should you hear through the rumor mill that a pal of yours is feeling neglected and forgotten, make the necessary time to assuage this fretful friend. Chums are too valuable to lose. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Even if you see yourself as an underdog, dont let up on your efforts to accomplish your goals. You should do rather well, even in competitive developments, by never giving up. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- If you want things to work out in a positive manner, you must remain confident of being able to reach your goals, even if you are challenged beyond what you thought. Youre luckier than you suspect. COPYRIGHT 2011 UNITED FEATURE SYNDICATE, INC.

LOCAL
new California gold rush, he said. Landlords leasing property to dozens of warehouses and agricultural parcels where marijuana is being grown and retail spaces where pot is sold over the counter are receiving written warnings to evict their tenants or face criminal charges or seizure of their assets, the states four U.S. attorneys said. The intention regarding medical marijuana under California state law was to allow marijuana to be supplied to seriously ill people on a nonprot basis, said U.S. Attorney Melinda Haag, the top federal law enforcement ofcer for the San Francisco Bay area. What we are nding, however, is that Californias laws have been hijacked by people who are in this to get rich and dont care at all about sick people. The crackdown comes a little more than two months after the Obama administration toughened its stand on medical marijuana. For two years before that, federal ofcials had indicated they would not move aggressively against dispensaries in compliance with laws in the 16 states where pot is legal for people with doctors recommendations. The Department of Justice issued a policy memo to federal prosecutors in late June stating that marijuana dispensaries and licensed growers in states with medical marijuana laws could face prosecution for violating federal drug and money-laundering laws. The effort to shutter California dispensaries appeared to be the most far-reaching effort so far to put that guidance into action. Increased federal intervention will likely unify marijuana growers and sellers in a drive to change federal policy, National Cannabis Industry Association spokeswoman Melissa certain districts now could create future land use conicts when the areas are rezoned for residential uses. The city already has a temporary moratorium in place but it is set to expire Dec. 10. At Monday nights meeting, the council could adopt the recommended ban with a twoyear sunset clause, tweak the sunset clause to be longer or shorter than the recommendation, let the existing moratorium expire or ask staff to create an ordinance allowing a limited amount of facilities with specic criteria such Milam said. Were not going anywhere. Were mothers, were patients, were family members of patients, she said. We want to pay taxes, we want to be able to make deposits at our bank, we want to be a business. Not all of the thousands of storefront pot dispensaries thought to be operating in the state are being targeted in the crackdown, which also involves new indictments and arrests of marijuana growers and vendors throughout the state over the past two weeks, said Wagner, who represents the states Central Valley. The strategies federal authorities are using vary somewhat, with warning letters issued by the U.S. attorney in San Diego giving recipients 45 days to comply and property owners in Los Angeles, Orange County and the Central Coast given just two weeks to evict pot dispensaries or growers. Haag said she is initially going after pot shops located close to schools, parks, sports elds and other places where there are a lot of children. Wagner, who represents the states Central Valley, also is targeting what he termed significant commercial operations, including farmland where marijuana is being grown. Birotte is prioritizing dispensaries in communities where local ofcials have been trying unsuccessfully to shut down marijuana businesses. Moreover, the four said their warnings were aimed at cities and counties that have started licensing and taxing marijuana shops. The ordinances are illegal under federal law, Haag said, citing an appellate court ruling this week against Long Beachs ordinance as distances between them. Redwood City ofcials are choosing to use the term medical marijuana distribution facilities in the proposed ordinance to avoid any legal distinctions between cooperatives and dispensaries. Likewise, the city is looking at a zoning ordinance rather than a full prohibition because California law is still unclear on if a permanent ban is legal. Under a state bill adopted in August, cities can instead enforce through land use. San Mateo County and its cities have a

against marijuana dealers and suppliers who use Californias 15-year-old medical marijuana law as legal cover for running sophisticated drug trafcking ventures in plain sight. Californias marijuana industry supplies the nation, said U.S. Attorney Benjamin Wagner, citing a 2009 federal study that 72 percent of marijuana plants eradicated nationwide were grown in California. Huge amounts of marijuana grown here in this state is owing east to other states, and huge amounts of money are owing back in the opposite direction. The actions were geared toward stopping a proliferation that has led to thousands of pot shops opening their doors across the state. The spread was fueled partly by the Obama administrations assurance two years ago that it did not plan to devote federal resources to countering marijuana outlets operating in compliance with state laws. One example cited by the prosecutors Friday: In one Orange County strip mall, eight of the 11 second-oor suites are occupied by dispensaries and doctors ofces for doctors where healthy individuals obtain sham recommendations to use medical marijuana. It is a Costco, Walmart-type model that we see across California, said Andre Birotte Jr., U.S. attorney in the Los Angeles-area. Some people making money from medical marijuana openly revel in what some have called the
that charged shops fees to operate. The California Board of Equalization has estimated medical marijuana generates between $53 million and $104 million in annual sales taxes on sales of between $700 million and $1.3 billion. If it creates revenue and jobs and increases safety, with all thats going on in the world and the nation, why is the federal government mounting this assault just because they can? asked attorney Mark Reichel, who represents three licensed Sacramento dispensaries that face federal charges or civil forfeitures. Absolutely it will have a chilling effect. More than that, it will have a freezing effect it will freeze them out of the business, Reichel said. A chilling effect is minor compared to what this is. This is a freezing winter storm. Three of the four prosecutors declined to reveal how many dispensaries are subject to closure orders, saying only there were dozens in each of their four districts. Birotte said 38 property owners in his district were sent warnings. Birotte said his ofce already had initiated property forfeiture proceedings involving three properties whose owners had received prior warnings. The effort was criticized by two Democrat state legislators who represent San Francisco. Assemblyman Tom Ammiano said the crackdown means that Obamas medical marijuana policies are worse than Bush and Clinton. Its a tragic return to failed policies that will cost the state millions in tax revenue and harm countless lives. patchwork of bans and regulations on a cityby-city basis. San Carlos, San Mateo and San Mateo County permit the facilities while Colma, San Bruno, South San Francisco, Millbrae Brisbane, East Palo Alto and Half Moon Bay do not. Regardless of state law, dispensaries and users can still run into problems with federal enforcement. The City Council meets 7 p.m. Monday, Oct. 10 at City Hall, 1017 Middlefield Road, Redwood City.
