San Carlos off-leash pilot in the dog house


City ending trial dog parks after serveral complaints, officials seeking new spot
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

San Carlos is canceling its offleash pilot program at two city


parks after receiving a laundry list
of complaints about users that

dont pick up after their animal,


dont abide by posted hours, conflict with other uses and even fight
with one another.
The pilot program at the east
side of Burton Park and the stadium field of Highlands Park will

cease Dec. 1 to coincide with the


maintenance closure period for all
grass fields. Parks and Recreation
Director Christine Boland said it
is less a termination and more a
relocation. She plans to meet with
the Responsible Dog Owners of

San Carlos group to find a new


temporary spot and is hopeful to
cement a dedicated dog park where
animals running free wont compete with sports teams and other
park visitors.
I think we can just be creative

and if the council can get behind


it, it might just end up in the capital budget, Boland said.

Photos show its hard


to tell a child is hungry
By Angela Swartz
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

In a land of plenty like Silicon


Valley its hard to fathom that 25
percent of children go to bed hungry.
But thats the startling fact that a
new exhibit featured at the Mercy
Center in Burlingame called
Whos Hungry? You Cant Tell by
Looking! hopes to bring to light.
A recent Centers of Disease
Control survey found that nationally 20 percent of children are food
insecure. Karen Ande, a San
Francisco based documentary photographer, has designed her exhibit to provide information about the
prevalence of childhood hunger in
northern California.
I was really appalled by the
CDC surveys, Ande said. Their
tummies are filled with not the
most healthful food. Sitting here
in Silicon Valley the high-tech
world it was appalling and horrible and that drew me in.
Of the 20 children photographed
in this exhibit, 10 screened positive for food insecurity and 10
came from food secure families.
Food insecurity is defined as the
lack of money to buy adequate food
to feed ones family.
The photography project is the
brainchild of Dr. Lucy Crain, who
was looking for ways to encourage

Shoppers hit a less busy


Hillsdale Shopping Center in
San Mateo on Black Friday to
snag deals. Online shopping,
especially on phones and
tablets, may be siphoning off
some shoppers from the
malls. IBM, which tracks
online sales, said they rose 8
percent compared with
Black Friday last year as of 3
p.m.E.T.,with much-increased
shopping on mobile devices.

NEW YORK There were squabbles here and there, and elbows
got thrown, but the Friday morning crowds appeared smaller than
usual and less frenzied, in part
because many Americans took
advantage of stores earlier opening hours to do their shopping on
Thanksgiving Day.
That might be hard to stomach
for people worried about commercial
encroachment
on
Thanksgiving. But it is good news
for bargain-hunters who hate
crowds.
Whether its good news for
retailers remains to be seen. Sales
estimates for the start of the holiday shopping season will start
trickling out later in the weekend.
Stores such as Wal-Mart and
Target
reported
brisk
Thanksgiving crowds. The colossal Mall of America in
Bloomington, Minnesota, said it
drew 100,000 people between 5
p.m. Thursday and 1 a.m. Friday,
nearly what it draws over a typical
full day.

Peninsula students react to UC tuition hike


Five percent annual increase will be burden for many families
By Angela Swartz
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

For those like Redwood City


twin brothers Jay and Raj Aurora
who attend the University of
California at Berkeley, the newest
tuition hike means a larger burden

on their familys checkbooks.


Last week, the University of
California voted to approve a
tuition increase of as much as 5
percent in each of the next five
years unless the state devotes
more money to the 10-campus
system. The Board of Regents

adopted the increase proposed by


UC President Janet Napolitano
with a 14-7 vote. Under the plan,
the average annual cost of a UC
education for California residents
would go up $612 to $12,804 next
fall and to $15,564 by fall 2019.
Tuition rates at the 10 schools

have been frozen for three years.


Students like Jay Aurora, who is
planning on majoring in business
administration, are concerned
about what the increased costs will
mean for their families. With

Hillsborough CEO takes child porn plea deal


By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The Hillsborough CEO of Pioneer Motor


Bearing caught by a Homeland Security
investigation into an online discussion
about incest pleaded no contest to one count
of felony child pornography for images discovered on his electronic devices.
Prosecutors sought a two-year maximum
term for Gordon Bardet, 64, but Judge
Jonathan Karesh lowered the cap to 16
months. Bardet will also be required to regis-

ter as a sex offender for


life.
Bardet was originally
charged with two felony
possession counts but
one was dismissed as part
of the negotiated settlement. He will be sentenced Jan. 27 at a hearGordon Bardet ing in which a judge will
also receive a report on
his likelihood to reoffend.
Sixteen months is a common disposition

for convictions and no contest pleas on a


single count of child pornography possession, District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said.
Bardet, who is also an attorney, was identified as a suspect during the investigation
of the online postings and stopped for a
search at San Francisco International
Airport on Aug. 29, 2011, as he returned
from the United Kingdom. A subsequent
search of his laptop revealed child molestation images on Sept. 8, 2011, and a
Homeland Security search of his
Hillsborough home turned up electronic

items containing pornographic images and


video of children, Wagstaffe said.
The U.S. attorneys office declined to prosecute the case because the number of alleged
images didnt meet its threshold and the matter was returned to local authorities who
charged him in April. Bardet was arrested on
a $250,000 warrant but posted bail and has
since been free on bond.
Bardet is chairman and CEO of Pioneer, a
San Mateo-based bearing and power transmission company whose clientele includes
the U.S. Navy.

Protests temporarily
close three malls and
shut down BART trains
By Jim Salter
and Tom Foreman Jr.
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

FERGUSON,
Mo.

Demonstrators temporarily shut


down three large malls in suburban St. Louis on one of the
busiest shopping days of the year
Friday, as other rallies were held
nationwide to protest a grand
jurys recent decision not to indict
the police officer who fatally shot
18-year-old Michael Brown.
Several stores lowered their
security doors or locked entrances
as at least 200 protesters sprawled
onto the floor while chanting,
Stop shopping and join the
movement, at the Galleria mall
in Richmond Heights a few miles
south of Ferguson, Missouri,
where Officer Darren Wilson fatally shot Brown, who was unarmed,
in August.
The action prompted authorities
to close the mall for about an hour
Friday afternoon, while a similar
protest of about 50 people had the
same effect at West County Mall
in nearby Des Peres. It didnt
appear that any arrests were made.
Later Friday, the appearance of
several dozen demonstrators led

to the early closing of the


Chesterfield Mall.
The protests, along with
demonstrations in Chicago, New
York, Seattle and northern
California where protesters
chained themselves to trains
were among the largest in the
country on Black Friday.
We want to really let the world
know that it is no longer business
as usual, Chenjerai Kumanyika,
an assistant professor at Clemson
University in South Carolina,
said at a rally at a Wal-Mart in
Manchester, another St. Louis
suburb.
Monday nights announcement
that Wilson, who is white, wouldnt be indicted for fatally shooting Brown, who was black,
prompted violent protests that
resulted in about a dozen buildings and some cars being burned.
Dozens of people were arrested.
The rallies have been ongoing
but have grown more peaceful this
week, as protesters turn their
attention to disrupting commerce.
Mindy Elledge, who runs a
watch kiosk at the Galleria, said it
was working.

with some chaining themselves
to trains. Dozens of people in
Seattle blocked streets, and police
said some protesters also apparently chained doors shut at the

center.

Storms could wallop parts of Northern California


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO A series of


storms was headed toward Northern
California Friday and could bring
more rain to parts of the region in one
weekend than they have seen so far
this season, forecasters said.
As much as three inches of rain
could fall on San Francisco from early
Saturday morning through Sunday,
National Weather Service forecaster
Diana Henderson said. The city has
received about 2 1/2 inches of rain
since July.
Elsewhere in Northern California,
up to a foot of snow was forecast over

the weekend at higher elevations in


the Sierra Nevada, and coastal mountains could see as much as five inches
of rain. The weather was expected to
remain unsettled through much of the
week.
It would be fantastic to see a really
big storm, Jeff Powell said. Powell
was cleaning the roofs and decks that
will capture water for his 25,000-gallon water storage system in the Santa
Cruz Mountains. He estimated one
inch of rain would provide 600 gallons of water.
Forecasters say the rain and snow
totals may get the region closer to
normal precipitation levels for the

season, but will not ease the ongoing


drought. San Francisco should have a
little more than four inches of rain by
now, Henderson said.
The Northern Sierra, meanwhile,
has received about six inches of precipitation since Oct. 1, about 67 percent of normal, National Weather
Service forecaster Holly Osborne said.
Both San Francisco and the Northern
Sierra have received more precipitation than they did over the same period last year.
These systems are not going to
alleviate the drought, Henderson
said. It will move us closer to normal, but we have a long way to go.

Judge: No more delay to enforce gun ruling


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

FRESNO A federal judge has


rejected a request by the California
attorney general to further delay his
order overturning the 10-day waiting
period for gun owners who want to
buy more firearms.
U.S. District Judge Anthony Ishii
of Fresno ruled last week that he
already gave six months from his

August decision before the state must


implement his order. The judge found
no evidence that the cooling-off period to buy more firearms prevents violence by people who already own
guns.
Attorney General Kamala Harris
had asked for a delay until the 9th
U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals can
issue its decision.
Harris had argued it will expensive

to hire and train workers or change


the states computer system to
accommodate the ruling. She said
that the appellate court could overturn Ishii, wasting the states money
and time.

Foundation, sued over the state waiting period in 2011.

long as black lives are put second

Malcolm London, a leader in the

has been organizing Chicago

trying to rally support for other
issues, such as more transparency
from Chicago police.

Around the Bay


Couple robbed, kidnapped at Berkeley lookout spot
BERKELEY Police say a couple sitting in a car at a
Berkeley hillside lookout point taking in the view of the
San Francisco Bay were robbed and kidnapped.
University of California, Berkeley police are looking for
three men who tried to rob a 26-year-old woman and a 23year-old man about 2 a.m. Thursday.
No one was injured.
Police said the men, armed with at least two guns and two
baseball bats, go into the couples car, parked on Grizzly
Peak Boulevard viewpoint behind the UC Berkeley campus,
and tried to rob them.
The couple said they had no cash so one man drove with
them to a bank ATM.
The other men followed them in a red, four-door car. A full

each win a $1,000 scholarship.
Writers who have the best story in each
grade level, will each win $100 cash
prizes.
Winners and honorable mentions will
have their submission featured in
Bluefire and be recognized during a celebration in May at Keplers Books
in Menlo Park where they will read their
piece and listen to remarks by author Terri
Farley.
The organization was named after Leyla
Beban, a 14-year-old girl who was riding a
bicycle when she was struck and killed by a
pickup truck at Jefferson Avenue and
Alameda De Las Pulgas in Redwood City
the morning of Nov. 26, 2012.
She was a freshman at Woodside High
School and an avid reader who enjoyed
writing rhymes, short poems and stories.
She is survived by her father, Marc, her

mother and her younger sister.


The idea behind the contest came from a
middle school assignment for which Leyla
wrote Deep Sea Walkers, a story she continued to work on outside of the classroom
and had hoped to publish, he said.
The story revolves around people buried
at sea who in their afterlife roam underwater amongst many marine animals including bluefire jellyfish, a creature she was
fascinated with, her father said.
I like thinking about it (creative writing) as unleashing imagination, which is
what Leyla got out of it. She got totally
lost in books. You can say her name three
times before she realized someone was
talking to her, Marc said.
He described the contest as an opportunity for people to tap into that imagination and be passionate just about books
and writing.
While he said his daughter did not get her
talent for writing from him, they did enjoy
reading books including Life of Pi by
Yann Martel and
The Host by Stephanie Meyer.
While writing exactly 1, 000 words can

be a challenge to meet, Beban suggested


students could meet the requirement by
being careful with their word choice,
removing extra punctuation and using
contractions in their stories.
Judging for the contest consists of three
rounds. In the first round a panel of about
27 people read the entries, each one read
twice, and give the story a rating out of
four points. The panel consists of teachers, the five members of the foundation's
editorial committee and parents of middle
and high school students.
Stories with a score of three or four continue to the second round in which the editorial committee, an author, a teacher and a
historian read through the stories and
select the top narrative in each grade level.
In the final round, a guest judge will read
through the works from the previous round
and select which pieces are worthy of the
$1,000 scholarship.
Our judges have no specific criteria in
mind other than to look for excellence,
Dave Susman, chairman of the foundations editorial committee, said in a statement.

Police: Blasts at mosque


in Nigeria kill 35 people
By Ibrahim Garba and Chika Oduah
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

KANO, Nigeria Multiple explosions


tore through the central mosque in Nigerias
second-largest city on Friday, killing 35
people, police said.
One hundred and fifty others sustained various degrees of injury in the blasts in the
city of Kano, State Deputy Police
Commissioner Sanusi Lemu said.
Hundreds had gathered to listen to a sermon in a region terrorized by attacks from
the militant group Boko Haram.
Witnesses said heavy smoke could be seen
billowing in the sky from a long distance
away. Immediately after the blasts, hundreds
of angry youth took to the streets in riots,
throwing stones, brandishing sticks and
shouting at security officials.
The palace of the Emir of Kano is near the
central mosque. Palace officials told AP that
the Emir, one of the highest ranking Islamic
figures in Nigeria, is currently out of the
country.
Boko Haram has not claimed responsibility, but the attack bears the hallmarks of the
militant group that has carried out numerous
such attacks in northern Nigeria, including
in Kano. In September, two suicide bombers
killed at least 15 students at a government

college and in July, five suicide bombings


were carried out over the course of a week.
More than 1,500 have been killed this year
in the insurgency.
The attack drew condemnation from U.N.
Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon who called
the attack horrific, pledged U.N. support
for Nigerias fight against terrorism, and
called for the perpetrators to be swiftly
brought to justice, according to his
spokesman.
Nigerian President Goodluck Ebele
Jonathan condemned the attack and reiterated the governments determination to continue to take every step to put an end to the
reprehensible acts of all groups and persons
involved in acts of terrorism.
He called on all Nigerians to remain united to confront the common enemy by
being vigilant and cooperating with security agencies.
He also called on relief agencies and medical staff to deploy every possible effort to
assist the injured and urged the public to
donate blood to the hospitals where they are
treated.
Meanwhile, a police anti-bomb squad
defused six bombs planted near a mosque and
a market in the northeastern city of
Maiduguri on Friday, according to Borno
state police spokesman Gideon Jubrin.

BEIRUT Syrian rebels backed by the


United States are making their biggest
gains yet south of the capital Damascus,
capturing a string of towns from government forces and aiming to carve out a swath
of territory leading to the doorstep of
President Bashar Assads seat of power.
The advances appear to be a rare visible
success story from efforts by the U.S. and
its allies to train and arm moderate rebel
fighters.
The rebel forces are believed to include
fighters who graduated from a nearly 2-yearold CIA training program based in Syrias
southern neighbor Jordan. The group
known as the Friends of Syria, including
Jordan, France the U.S. and Saudi Arabia, are
backing the rebels with money and
weapons, said Gen. Ibrahim Jbawi, the
spokesman for the Free Syrian Armys
southern front.
The gains are a contrast to northern Syria,

Taiwan local elections


test pro-China ruling party

where U.S.-backed rebels are collapsing in


the face of an assault by Islamic militants.
Notably, in the south, the rebels are working together with fighters from al-Qaidas
Syria branch, whose battle-hardened militants have helped them gain the momentum
against government forces. The cooperation points to the difficulty in American
efforts to build up moderate factions while
isolating extremists.
The goal is to reach the capital . . .
because there is no way to bring down the
regime without reaching Damascus, said
Ahmad al-Masalmeh, an opposition activist
in Daraa.
But few are under the illusion that the
offensive in the south can loosen Assads
grip on power in the near future. The Syrian
leader has benefited from the U.S.-led coalitions war against the Islamic State group,
which has had the side effect of freeing up
Assads forces to focus on more moderate
rebels elsewhere in the country.
Government forces have seized several key
areas around the capital.

Around the world

TAIPEI, Taiwan Taiwans relations with


historic foe China are playing a key role in
local elections on the self-ruled island
Saturday as the ruling Nationalist Party
meets increased resistance to forging
stronger ties with Beijing.
Voters on the island with a population of
about 23 million will elect representatives
to 11,130 local seats, including mayoral
posts in major cities such as the capital,
Taipei.
A poor showing for the Nationalists
would make it easier for the rival Democratic

Progressive Party to win the presidency in


early 2016, an outcome expected to disrupt
negotiations with China on trade and
investment deals that have lifted Taiwans
half-trillion-dollar economy while raising
Beijings hopes for political reunification.
Beijing has claimed sovereignty over
Taiwan since the Chinese civil war of the
1940s, keeping relations icy until
Nationalist President Ma Ying-jeou took
office in 2008. He set aside the sovereignty
issue to ease tensions and bind Taiwan to
Chinas massive economy.

were out, but it wasnt elbow-to-elbow,
said Moodys analyst Michael Zucchero, at
a mall in northern Connecticut.
Traffic seems a little light, he said.
Stores being open last night takes away
some of the early birds.
Brooklyn residents Paul and Mary
Phillips shopped at Target, Old Navy and
Marshalls on Friday at the Atlantic
Terminal Mall in New York City. They
picked DVD box sets for $5, marked down
from $45, and speakers for $19, down from
$50. They didnt even have to wait in line.
Because stores were open on Thursday,
theyre not as crowded now, Paul Phillips
said.
There were scattered reports of shopper
scuffles and arrests. In addition, protests
were planned nationwide over minimumwage laws and the grand jury decision in
Ferguson, Missouri.
Protesters interrupted holiday shopping
at major stores around St. Louis to vent
their anger over the decision not to indict
the police officer who shot and killed
Michael Brown.

DOG
Continued from page 1
the pilot in February 2012 with specific
rules and weekday hours and the caveat it
never take priority over organized sports
groups at either field.
Since Longs retirement in February
2013, Boland said the pilot program has
been plagued by problems ranging from
senses of entitlement to deplorable grass
to physical confrontations. Dog owners are
now showing up with animals at Arguello,
Cedar Street, Laureola and Hillcrest Circle
parks. When confronted by police or staff,
Boland said they either acknowledge the law
but claim their dogs are safe or deny knowing the law.
It wasnt supposed to be like this, she
said.
The lengthy number of complaints
plus one positive bit of commentary

They temporarily shut down two large


malls in suburban St. Louis. At one of
those, the Galleria Mall in Richmond
Heights, about 10 miles south of
Ferguson, at least 200 protesters gathered.
Several stores lowered their security doors
or locked outside entrances as protests
sprawled onto the floor while chanting,
Stop shopping and join the movement.
In Chicago, about 200 people demonstrated near the citys popular Magnificent
Mile shopping district, calling on people
to boycott Black Friday shopping to show
their solidarity with protesters in
Ferguson.
Other disruptions: Best Buys website
went down on Friday morning for about an
hour, and then for another hour again in the
evening. Spokesman Jeff Shelman said a
concentrated spike in mobile traffic
prompted the company to temporarily shut
down the site. Online monitoring firm
Dynatrace said Cabelas, Foot Locker and
J.C. Penney also had website problems.
Online shopping, especially on phones
and tablets, may be siphoning off some
shoppers from the malls.
IBM, which tracks online sales, said
they rose 8 percent compared with Black
Friday last year as of 3 p.m. E.T., with
much-increased shopping on mobile

devices.
In the stores, Toys R Us and Target executives said shoppers seem to be buying
more than just the doorbusters and are filling their carts with items not on sale.
Thats a sign that lower gas prices and an
improving job picture are making shoppers more confident about opening their
wallets.
At clothing stores, discounts were steep,
with Old Navy offering up to half off everything. Best Buy offered $100 off some
iPads. And Target slashed prices on TVs and
video game consoles.
At the Westfield Fox Valley mall in
Aurora, Illinois, the mood was calm. Some
groggy shoppers were still in pajama
pants, coffee in hand.
Kimberly States, shopping with her 11year-old daughter, said it was markedly quieter around 6:30 a.m. Friday than the night
before.
It was a zoo last night around 10 p.m.,
States said. Now it seems like more of the
old folks.
Last year, sales on Black Friday slumped
13.2 percent to $9.74 billion, according
to ShopperTrak, which tracks data at more
than 70,000 stores globally. Bill Martin,
co-founder of ShopperTrak, said it is
unclear how stores will fare this year.

Retailers have turned to Thanksgiving


openings to stay competitive and avoid
losing sales that have shifted earlier into
the holiday, said Ramesh Swarmy, a retail
partner at the Deloitte consulting firm.
The holiday weekend still sets the tone
for the shopping season, whose sales this
year are expected to rise 4.1 percent to
$611.9 billion. That would be the biggest
increase since 2011. Black Friday has been
the biggest shopping day of the year since
2005.
Brian Cornell, who became Targets CEO
in August and was at a Target store in New
Yorks East Harlem neighborhood on
Thursday, said shopping traditions have
changed.
Its been more of a week event, he said.
As a result, some Black Friday shoppers
were disappointed by what was left on
shelves.
Kathy Wise of Scottsdale, Arizona, started shopping at 5 a.m. with her mother-inlaw, hitting Wal-Mart, Target, Toys R Us
and Sports Authority.
Its not as busy today, Kathy Wise said
as the two combed through a shelf of
Monster High dolls. They couldnt find the
one Kathys daughter wanted, and said it
seemed as if some of the best deals and
items were already gone.

were collected in the aptly named dog log


she began compiling shortly after assuming the job. The logs complaint include:
Dogs are free in undesignated areas. An
unneutered cocker spaniel aggressively bit
other dogs while encouraged by the owner
who is themselves verbally abusive. A man
who approached dog owners about respecting set hours said he and his car were photographed and bags of excrement were
dropped on his property and truck in retaliation. Cars parking the wrong way on the
street. Dogs frightening others and keeping
them away from the park. A dog was
attacked at Stadium Field. Owners not paying attention to the dogs. Owners using
flashlights to use the park after hours. A
woman threatening a dog and its owner after
the animal stole her animals toys. A video
of a dog drinking out of a human fountain at
Highlands.
Mayor Mark Olbert said the lack of punishment for skirting the rules is one factor.
People keep pushing the boundaries
when theres no enforcement action, he

said. If enough people arent going to follow the rules were going to have a much
simpler rule which is never have a dog off a
leash in any park ever.
And then there is the, er, poop.
Regular maintenance workers pick up
some of the mess while mowing but the
onus otherwise falls on athletic groups to
clean up the fields prior to striping the field
and playing. The drought has made an
already smelly situation worse.
Over time there is damage and without
rain and us not watering its the perfect triangle of disaster. Parents are on the sidelines and grandpa is just trying to enjoy the
soccer game and instead they have to contend with the smell, Boland said.
The dog log also chronicled the problems. On Feb. 15, for instance, one
Arguello neighbor reported picking up 100
dog poops on the trails. On March 7,
another reported coning off an area at
Highlands that was full of dog waste and
being stepped in by kids. The same day
another resident lining the field for soccer

said six dogs roamed off leash and one peed


on his tool bucket.
A dedicated dog park would benefit both
owners and other park users, Boland said.
Dog owners wouldnt have to navigate complicated use regulations like changing windows of time and other users neednt worry
about animals chasing softballs as teams
finish out games.
The four possible parks for such a place
are Lower Vista, Upper Arguello, North
Crestview and Chilton.
Olbert thinks Crestview may be a good fit
with the addition of a garbage can and waste
bag dispenser. He and Boland said fencing is
also key and she figures the city might have
a few spare benches somewhere that can be
installed.
But before making any decisions, Boland
said she really wants the citys dog owner
group to visit the options and figure out
themselves where might be best.
An inquiry to the Responsible Dog
Owners of San Carlos group went unanswered.

Value of community-based health care districts


By Lee Michelson

ommunity-based health care


districts like Sequoia and
Peninsula are a tremendous
value to the residents that we serve.
Unlike most government bodies that
have a specific mandated function,
health care districts have tremendous
flexibility to respond to the needs of
the communities that we serve.
As a result many outstanding projects have been made possible that
otherwise may not have been. In the
case of Sequoia Healthcare District
we have been able to:
1). Work with Samaritan House to
establish a free medical and dental
clinic for the poor in the Redwood
City area that is mostly staffed by
volunteer physicians, dentists, pharmacists and nurses.
2). Provide support to build a new
medical and dental clinic in the Fair
Oaks neighborhood in partnership
with the San Mateo Medical Center.
3). Establish an outstanding nursing education program in conjunction with San Francisco State
University, Caada College and
Sequoia Hospital.
4). Develop and initiate our signature Healthy Schools Initiative that

is now our largest


program serving
more than 28,000
public school
children annually
in eight local
school districts.
5). Create and
offer a Heart Safe
Program that has
provided our community with more
than 300 AEDs as well as training in
CPR for thousands of residents.
6). Expand the support for
Ravenswood Family Health Center
to serve our residents who choose
that medical and dental facility for
their medical home.
7). Join Peninsula Healthcare
District in bringing Apple Tree
Dental to our community that will
make dental services for the poor
and elderly much more available
starting in 2015.
8). Offer Living Healthy Classes
to those seeking a positive lifestyle
especially as they look to the next
stage of their lives.
Additionally, we have been able to
provide millions of dollars in financial support to more than 50 local
nonprofits that have used these
funds to feed the hungry, provide

Guest
perspective
much-needed mental health counseling, adult day care services, fitness
and nutrition programs and much
more to keep our residents healthy
and well.
Years ago, our board chose to get
out of the hospital business. There
is certainly value in hospitals and
we are very happy that Sequoia
Hospital continues to thrive and
serve our community and we know
will for many years ahead. By making that choice, it has allowed our
time, talent and annual property tax
income to be used for many other
health services that benefit tens of
thousands from the newly born to
the very old.
We have a record that we are very
proud of and we look forward to
2015 and another year of service.
Lee Michelson is the CEO of the
Sequoia Healthcare District.

he federal governments
Secure Communities program has been as controversial as it has been counterproductive, so were glad the Obama
administrations new approach to
immigration enforcement will
mean the programs demise. Yet we
also harbor some skepticism about
its successor, the Priority
Enforcement Program and wonder whether there will be much difference.
Under Secure Communities, local
police forwarded fingerprints of
detained criminal suspects to the
FBI and the Department of
Homeland Security. Those agencies
checked the prints against federal
databases to find people with serious criminal records who were in
the country illegally (thus targeted
for removal). Database hits led to
requests that the police hold the
detainees past scheduled release
dates pending further federal
action.
Yet more than half of those
eventually deported under the pro-

gram had minor or no criminal
records. Families were torn apart,
and several thousand legal citizens
were detained. In the worst cases,
detainees languished in jails awaiting federal action without criminal
charges or court orders, violations
of the Fourth Amendment for
which federal courts have held the
local agencies liable. The program
generated so much mistrust that
immigrant communities stopped
cooperating with police in routine
criminal matters. As local agencies began dropping out, the
Department of Homeland Security
tried in 2011 to fix the worst of
the problems, with little effect.
Under the new Priority
Enforcement Program, immigration agents will still receive fingerprints from local agencies,
then make their priority those
detainees who have been convicted
of a felony, are gang members or
pose a demonstrable risk to
national security. Lower-priority
targets include those convicted of

three misdemeanors or one significant misdemeanor (such as domestic or sexual abuse); new illegal
arrivals; and those who have significantly abused the visa or visa
waiver programs.
To avoid the legal problems of
unconstitutional detentions, the
federal government will now just
ask local agencies to notify them
when a potentially deportable
detainee is scheduled for release. If
Immigration and Customs
Enforcement agents determine that
someone should be detained
longer, they must specify that the
person is subject to a final order of
removal or there is other sufficient
probable cause to find that the person is a removable alien.
Those are sound and reasonable
parameters. But we cant help but
note that Secure Communities was
supposed to target the dangerous
and the threatening too, not the
otherwise law-abiding but undocumented. Given the history of
Washington wanting one thing and
immigration agents on the ground
doing another, the proof will be in
the execution.

Beyond the Verdict

id you feel the earthquake that struck Northern


California on Aug. 24? I did. The strongest
earthquake in 25 years struck the Bay Area at
about 3 a.m. that morning, injuring dozens of people
and turning many buildings into rubble. The aftershocks
that occurred hours later were also apparent.
Scientists suggest that while earthquakes are destructive in nature, they are a necessary means by which the
earth breathes through fractures in the its fault planes.
Earthquakes are much like racially charged events in
this country the death of Martin Luther King Jr., the
police brutality inflicted on Rodney King and now the
fatal shooting of Michael Brown. These events rattle
and shake us. Their occurrences are random. But, when
they erupt, they send shock waves across our country.
You can see it when you watch Fox News and MSNBC
depicting stirring images and recollections of the event.
You can feel it rumble when you engage in social media
networks in which others applaud or relentlessly condemn rioters protesting the
event. The aftershocks are
present when you discuss the
event with someone sensitive
to the events magnitude.
Earthquakes inevitably
expose the sediment and boiling pressure beneath its aesthetic surface. Racially charged
events often expose what
many purport to be a postracial society to the inconvenient truth that racism still
exists in our country. Dont be
Jonathan Madison
fooled; ignoring racism in a
society merely perpetuates a false reality, prompting
surprise and denial when a racially charged earthquake
erupts and exposes what really lies beneath.
Many have condemned the people who have rioted in
the streets of Ferguson, while others have praised them
for expressing their distaste for the American judicial
system. CNN and other major news groups have suggested that while many of the people who rioted were
involved in violent behavior such as flipping over cars
and setting fire to buildings, others have remained
peaceful in their protest. Regardless our various views
about the reactions to Ferguson, we must acknowledge
that every citizen regardless of their race, creed or
orientation is granted the right to petition and
protest by the First Amendment of the U.S.
Constitution.
After the rumble and debris have passed, earthquakes
also produce a new growth, consciousness and presence
within the atmosphere. Before the Michael Brown
shooting, just 11.7 percent of eligible voters in
Ferguson actually voted, according to the Washington
Post. Turnout was especially low among Fergusons
Black residents. In 2013, for example, just 6 percent of
eligible black voters cast a ballot in Fergusons municipal elections. In the wake of the shooting of Michael
Brown, more than 3,000 people have registered to vote
a surge in interest that strongly suggests the city of
21,000 people is ready for a change, according to USA
Today.
The St. Louis County Election Board does not record
the races of eligible voters but many believe the
increase is a sign that Browns death has spurred
renewed interest in electing representatives that truly
represent their interests and might mean more Blacks
will vote in upcoming elections. Indeed, it should never
take a tragedy to prompt interest in exercising ones
right to vote but it appears that is just what is happening in Ferguson.
I cast no judgment on those who exercised their First
Amendment rights to peacefully protest in the streets of
Ferguson and elsewhere. However, if one is to have a
real impact in fighting for what they believe, perhaps
he or she should take the fight to where it counts most
at the voting polls.
If there is anything we are reminded of in Ferguson, it
is that a voiceless people is a hopeless people. Make
no mistake, as our voices become silent in the electoral
process, the governments capacity to become tyrannical grows stronger. One lesson we should take from
Ferguson, among others, is that fighting for what we
believe is not always most effective on inner city
streets but it will always be effective at the voting
polls.

NEW YORK A sharp drop in crude


prices tugged down shares in oil and
gas companies on Friday, leading the
Standard & Poors 500 index to a
slight loss in a short trading session.
The index, a benchmark for many
investments, still closed out
November with its third-best month
this year.
Crude is the big story today, said
JJ Kinahan, TD Ameritrades chief
strategist. There are very clear winners and losers. The Chevrons and
Exxons of the world are getting hammered; then on the other side you
have the shipping companies UPS
and FedEx along with the airlines.
For them, its a beautiful story.
The S&P 500 index lost 5. 27
points, or 0.3 percent, to close at
2,067.56. As a group, energy companies lost 6 percent, the worst drop of
the 10 sectors in the S&P 500 by far.
The Dow Jones industrial average
inched up 0.49 of a point, a sliver of
a percent, to eke out another record
high, 17,828.24. The Nasdaq composite picked up 4.31 points, less
than 0. 1 percent, to 4, 791. 63.
Regular U.S. trading closed at 1 p.m.
Eastern time on Friday and the market

was
shut
Thursday
for
the
Thanksgiving holiday.
Rising corporate profits and a
steadily improving U. S. economy
have helped push the stock market to
record highs this month. The S&P
500 gained 2.5 percent in November.
But it was a quiet climb, a combination of many small steps. There wasnt a single day in November that the
index rose more than 1 percent.
The main news driving trading was
a decision made Thursday by the
OPEC oil cartel to keep production at
30 million barrels a day. That
announcement hit oil prices hard as
traders expect the global supply of
oil to stay high. Crude oil slumped
$7. 54, or 10 percent, to settle at
$66.15.
The recent slide for oil prices has
had a double-edged effect on the market. It has given a boost to airlines,
shippers, retailers and cruise lines,
which benefit from both falling costs
and customers having more money in
their pockets to spend. But it has battered drillers, producers and other
companies that provide services to
the oil and gas industry.
It was the same story Friday. United
Parcel Service gained 3 percent, and
FedEx added 2 percent.
Around the world, the slide in crude

prices pulled oil and gas companies


down. Newfield Exploration lost 16
percent and QEP Resources 15 percent, the two steepest drops by any
company in the S&P 500 index.
In Asia, Chinas state-owned oil
giant CNOOC, the countrys biggest
crude producer, plunged. In Europe,
shares in Royal Dutch Shell, Total
and other energy giants fell.
Despite those steep drops, Europes
major markets ended with slight
gains. Frances CAC 40 added 0.2
percent, while Germanys DAX
inched up 0.1 percent. In the U.K, the
FTSE 100 index of leading British
companies barely moved from the
previous day.
The template for equity markets
today has been clear from the beginning, said Alastair McCaig, market
analyst at IG. Oil and energy manufacturers are down, while those companies that are oil consumers are up.
In government bond trading, prices
for 10-year Treasurys rose. The yield,
which moves in the opposite direction, fell to 2.17 percent.
In metals trading, the price of gold
for February delivery lost $22 to
$1,175.50 an ounce, and silver for
March fell $1.05 to $15.56 an ounce.
Copper for March fell 11 cents to
$2.85 a pound.

2015 stock outlook: Good


but not great, and bumpy
By Stan Choe
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Stocks can keep


climbing next year, tacking even
more gains onto their phenomenal run
of the last five-plus years. Just dont
expect them to be as big or to come
with as little heartburn as before.
Thats what mutual fund managers of
all types are forecasting, as they peer
ahead to 2015 and coming years. For a
hint of what it may be like, just look
back a few weeks when the Standard &
Poors 500 index declined more than 7
percent from mid-September through
mid-October. The tumble raised
investor anxiety, but a stream of
strong earnings reports helped it dissipate. The S&P 500 has since
climbed to another record high.

Heres a look at the expectations


of fund managers for 2015:
STOCKS CAN RISE EVEN MORE
The economy is growing, and
employers have added more than
200, 000 jobs for nine straight
months, the longest such streak since
1995. Everything is pointing to
companies making more money
going forward, says Neil Hennessy,
chief investment officer of Hennessy
Funds, which manages $5.7 billion in
assets.
Thats key because stock prices, at
their heart, are a function of how much
profit a company makes and how much
investors will pay for it.
The stronger job market means consumers will have more money to
spend. As will lower gasoline bills,
now that the price of crude oil is close
to a four-year low. The hope is that
companies will generate more revenue
as a result. Thats important because,
since the recession, corporate profits
have grown largely as a result of cutting expenses.
Companies are squeezing more prof-

it from each $1 in revenue than ever


before: nearly 10 cents, up from an
average of 6.5 cents over the last 20
years, according to S&P Dow Jones
Indices. That means any increase in
sales will quickly boost earnings.
BUT DONT EXPECT
GAINS TO BE BIG, OR SMOOTH
Few fund managers argue that stock
prices are cheap, at least relative to
their earnings. Instead they debate
whether stocks are just a little more
expensive than normal or a lot more.
The S&P 500 has more than tripled
since hitting bottom in early 2009,
rising faster than corporate profits.
Stocks in the index are trading at nearly 17 times their earnings per share
over the last 12 months. In early
2009, the indexs price-earnings ratio
was just above 8.
And because of their high price tags,
fund managers say further gains for
stocks will likely have to come from
earnings growth. Next year, analysts
are broadly calling for a rise of 9.9
percent.
So instead of seeing another 2013,
during which the S&P 500 surged 29.6
percent, it may be safer to expect
annual gains closer to 5 percent or 6
percent in the next few years, says
Bill Stromberg, head of equity for T.
Rowe Price.
Investors should also be ready for a
bumpier ride, Stromberg says. The
market has been largely smooth in
recent years, with stimulus from the
Federal Reserve a likely cause. But the
central bank last month declared an
end to its bond-buying program.
Many economists also expect the
Federal Reserve to raise short-term
interest rates next year for the first
time since 2006. That could lead to
sharper swings in stock prices.
RISING RATES DONT
ALWAYS KILL STOCKS
Interest rate hikes have historically
scared investors. They make borrow-

ing more expensive and slow down


economic growth. The last time the
Federal Reserve began raising rates,
in 2004, the S&P 500 lost nearly 7
percent in about six weeks.
But after that initial tumble, the
market went on to rise nearly 20 percent by the time the Federal Reserve
had finished raising rates in 2006.
Thats similar to the S&P 500s performance in several other rate-hike
campaigns, says Andrew Goldberg,
global market strategist with J. P.
Morgan Asset Management. Stocks
usually fall when the Fed begins hiking, but can reverse course after the
market digests the news.
The key is whether interest rates are
rising off a low starting point,
Goldberg says. If they are, higher
rates arent that much more restrictive
for the economy. And rates are very
low now.
THE BARGAIN BIN IS
FULL OF FOREIGN STOCKS
Value investors turned off by U.S.
stocks can find better bargains
abroad. European stocks were recently
trading at 13.5 times their expected
earnings per share over the next 12
months, for example. Their U. S.
counterparts were trading at 16 times,
according to index provider MSCI.
Of course, foreign stocks have lower
valuations for a reason. Europe is
struggling to keep its economy out of
a deflationary spiral in which falling
prices encourage consumers and businesses to delay purchases, which only
pushes prices lower. Japans economy
has fallen back into recession.
Among emerging markets, Chinas
economic growth is slowing. Russia
may be the worlds only market that
could double and still be cheap, says T.
Rowe Prices Stromberg. But it carries
significant risks: As a major oil
exporter, its hurt by crudes plunging
price, and political tensions are high
between Moscow and the West.

Breidinger sisters wrap up first season on the midget-car circuit
By Terry Bernal

Warriors win
8th straight
By Steve Reed
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Annie and Toni Breidinger were conspicuously absent from the Mercy-Burlingame
cheer squad last Saturday as it showed in support of brother school Serra for the final
football game of the year at Brady Family
Stadium.
The 15-year-old twin sisters currently
sophomores at Mercy simply had a prior
commitment.
With the United States Auto Club wrapping
up
its
Honda
Performance
Development Western Pavement Series
Saturday, the Breidinger girls were busy at
the Las Vegas Motor Speedway completing
their first season of racing on the midget-car
circuit.
In the 20-race season, spanning three different states, Toni Breidinger finished the
year in second place with 955 points. Annie
Breidinger took fourth place with 756
points. Shawn Buckley of Simi Valley captured first place with 1,188 points.
Having raced Micro Max go-karts since
they were 9, the Breidingers graduated to
midget cars this year, which use 2000 cc
Ford Focus engines with 170 horsepower to
reach up to 110 mph.
I think I surprised myself because I wasnt really expecting that much from the season, Toni Breidinger said. I just wanted to
learn and get used to the car. Then the first
couple races, I did pretty good. So, I was surprised. My goal was just to hold on to second (place), and I did.
Toni Breidingers 2014 finale didnt go
the way she wanted it to. On Friday, the day
before the race, she noticed something was
wrong with her car. It wasnt until Saturday
when her mechanic, her father Charles
Breidinger, diagnosed the problem as the car
having faulty breaks. As not to withdraw
from the event, Toni Breidinger took a courtesy lap around the track to qualify as a participant, but did not actually compete in the
race.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. Coach Steve Kerr


knew when he arrived at Golden State that
Marreese Speights would figure into the mix
somehow this season with the Warriors.
He never envisioned how big of an impact
Speights would have in the teams 13-2 start.
I figured he was a guy who could give us a
spark off the bench every now and again, but
I didnt see him as our full-time backup center. ... but Mo has been
way better than I expected, Kerr said.
Kerr even sat out
Speights early in the season, saying because Im
an idiot. He said hes not
going to make the same
mistake again.
Speights scored 16 of
Marreese
his 27 points to start the
Speights
fourth quarter, helping
the Warriors beat the Charlotte Hornets 106101 on Friday night for their eighth straight
win.
He saved us again, Kerr said. Its like
the fourth time hes saved us. Hes just having a terrific season.
Stephen Curry finished with 26 points
despite a poor shooting night from 3-point
range, and Klay Thompson added 17 points
for the Warriors (13-2).
We were struggling to find a rhythm and
he came in and dominated, took over the
game, Curry said of Speights. He basically
won us the game. Without him tonight our
team doesnt even come close.
Said Speights: I think it shows we got a
deep team.
Brian Roberts scored 20 points and Al
Jefferson had 18 points for the struggling
Hornets (4-13), who have lost eight straight
games and 10 of their last 11. Cody Zeller

As deal All-Star 3B Donaldson to Toronto for Brett Lawrie


By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND All-Star third baseman Josh


Donaldson is the latest Oakland star traded
away in a rebuilding effort.
Billy Beane looked at the large deficit by
which his Athletics lost the AL West to the
Angels, then evaluated how Oakland barely
held off Seattle on the seasons final day for
the second wild card.
The general manager realized he needed to
rebuild his roster once more, but at least initially he didnt envision the move he made
Friday night: Letting Donaldson go to the
Toronto Blue Jays for third baseman Brett
Lawrie, left-hander Sean Nolin, right-hander Kendall Graveman and minor league
shortstop Franklin Barreto.
Beane considers both pitchers ready for
the majors.
They had been pretty persistent, and we
were pretty adamant that wasnt something
we were willing to talk about, Beane said
of dealing Donaldson. We wouldnt have
done the deal unless it addressed now and the
future and they were able to do that. This
deal in our minds addresses a little bit of
everything. It got pretty serious the last 48
hours. They were reluctant to give up all
four players and we werent going to do it
without those four players in the deal.
But Blue Jays GM Alex Anthopoulos
sweetened the deal, offering Lawrie as a
replacement for Donaldson.
I have a pretty good relationship with
Billy, the GM said. At some point someone makes it really compelling.
At first he had been reluctant to give up
four players for Donaldson, but the As
wouldnt have proceeded otherwise.
Donaldson provides a steady hitter in the
middle of the order for a Toronto team that
finished third in the AL East at 83-79 and
has watched the last-place Boston Red Sox
pull off the big deals this past week acquiring third baseman Pablo Sandoval and
shortstop Hanley Ramirez.
Donaldsons been an outstanding player, Anthopoulos said. Were getting a

My first reaction was I was a little bit
disappointed because I wasnt sure how the
points would play out, Toni Breidinger
said. But we looked through the points and
saw they would be fine [to clinch second
place for the season]. So I wasnt that worried about it after. But my first reaction I was
pretty upset.
On two other instances this the season,
Toni Breidingers car which sports the
No. 80 was not fit to compete. On those
occasions, as she had a better overall season standing than her sister, Annie
Breidinger sat out to allow Toni Breidinger
the use of her No. 75 car.
There were no such problems on Sept. 13,
however, when Toni Breidinger captured the

middle-of-the-order bat and its something
that we need. We didnt expect him to be
available. ... It doesnt hurt to ask. We
asked if there was any way we could ask
about Donaldson. Billy told me emphatically no. We left it at that. A few days ago we
were talking again and asked again. Finally
when Brett was involved to replace Josh
thats when it started to move again.
The 28-year-old Donaldson, a sure-handed, athletic defender, batted .255 with 29
home runs and 98 RBIs in 158 games last
season. In four seasons in the majors, all
with Oakland, he has a .268 average with 63
home runs and 228 RBIs in 405 games.
Another fan favorite, gone. Anthopoulos
cant wait to see Donaldsons bat alongside
slugger Jose Bautista and Edwin
Encarnacion.
You are going to have to give up some
really good players to get Donaldson,

Anthopoulos said.
Oakland, which won the AL West in 2012
and 13, lost by 10 games to the big-spending Angels. The As were then eliminated 98 in 12 innings in the one-game AL wild
card at AL champion Kansas City.
Beane wasnt sure Oakland could contend
for the division again without some key
additions, especially after losing left-hander Jon Lester following his short stint
since being traded from Boston at the AllStar break.
When we went into this winter we had to
take a look where we are and where were
headed, Beane said.
He has already been plenty busy.
On Nov. 19, Beane signed designated hitter and former Royals star Billy Butler to a
$30 million, three-year contract. Just last
Sunday, the As acquired first baseman Ike
Davis and international bonus slot 86 from

the Pittsburgh Pirates in exchange for international bonus slot 27.


Lawrie batted .247 with 12 home runs and
38 RBIs in 70 games for Toronto last season. He missed most of the final three
months because of a broken finger and an
oblique strain. Nolin is expected to compete for a rotation spot.
We addressed a lot of areas we thought we
needed filled from our organizational standpoint, Beane said.
The As are still in need of a shortstop
with Jed Lowrie a free agent. Finding that
player also might come through a trade
because I certainly wont see it through
free agency, Beane said.
To clear spots on the 40-man roster, the
As designated right-hander Josh Lindblom
and first baseman Kyle Blanks for assignment.

first featured win of her


career. The victory came
at the Harvest Classic at
Madera Speedway. Toni
Breidinger jumped out to
a lead from the start and

I think I was pretty
Toni
quick that day, so it wasBreidinger
nt too difficult for me to
lead, Toni Breidinger said. But the guy
behind me was pretty close, so I just had
to not tire out which was the hardest part.
The guy behind her was eventual secondplace finisher Dylan Nobile. Since midget
cars dont have rearview mirrors, Toni
Breidinger just set her mind to having a
flawless race. It was a hot evening on a slick
track though, so many of the cars were
struggling with sliding, she said.
Toni Breidinger said she prevailed by
choosing a different line than most of her

competitors and ultimately was able to hold


off Nobile and the rest of
the 12-car field. It was
quite a performance, considering
Annie
Breidingers evaluation
of Madera being notorious for cars being able to
pass because of the

the compact track.
Yet, after a race that was both physically
and emotionally draining, the pomp and circumstance of the post-race celebration was
lost on Toni Breidinger for the most part.
I think I was mostly really tired and still
had the adrenaline, she said. So, I wasnt
really thinking too much about it. But it
was cool.
Now the sisters are gearing up for a return
for their second season in January. Annie
Breidinger said shes looking forward to her
return to the competitive circuit.

I learned a lot because its really different

NFL brief
Ray Rice wins appeal
Ray Rice has won the
appeal of his indefinite
suspension by the NFL.
An arbitrator ruled Friday
that his suspension for
punching his fiancee, now
his wife, should be vacated
immediately. The NFL said
Rice, a free agent, is eliRay Rice
gible to play upon signing
a new contract.
Former U.S. District Judge Barbara S. Jones
said Commissioner Roger Goodells decision
in September to change Rices original suspension from two games to indefinite was
arbitrary and an abuse of discretion.
Jones was deciding whether the NFL overstepped its authority in modifying Rices twogame suspension after video of the Baltimore
Ravens running back punching Janay became
public.
Rice was released by the Ravens when the
video went public. Rice and the union con-

tended he was essentially sentenced twice, and


Jones agreed.
In her decision, Jones wrote:
Because Rice did not mislead the commissioner and because there were no new facts on
which the commissioner could base his
increased suspension, I find that the imposition of the indefinite suspension was arbitrary. I therefore vacate the second penalty
imposed on Rice.
The provisions of the first discipline
those regarding making continued use of
counseling and other professional services,
having no further involvement with law
enforcement, and not committing any additional violations of league policies still
stand.
The NFL said it accepted the decision.
The Rices testified at the hearing, as did
NFL security chief Jeffrey Miller and Ravens
general manager Ozzie Newsome.
The NFL Players Association claimed a
victory for a disciplinary process that is fair
and transparent in a statement. The union
called again for collective bargaining to produce a new personal conduct policy.

Cardinal knock off No. 9 UCLA in upset Stanford
Pac-12 VB crown
By Gerg Beacham

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PASADENA Kevin Hogan passed for


234 yards and two touchdowns, and Stanford
crushed No. 9 UCLAs hopes for the Pac-12
South title and a College Football Playoff
spot with a 31-10 victory Friday.
Devon Cajuste and Michael Rector caught
scoring passes for the Cardinal (7-5, 5-4
Pac-12) as the two-time defending Pac-12
champions salvaged from satisfaction from
a down season by trouncing the Bruins (9-3,
6-3) for the seventh consecutive time.
With a dynamite 16-for-19 performance
by Hogan and two rushing TDs from
Remound Wright, Stanford snatched the
South title away from UCLA, which needed a
victory to advance to the conference title
game. Instead, the Bruins flopped in another
big game and Stanford handed the division
crown to Arizona or Arizona State.
We had very good preparation, Hogan
said. We knew what looks they were going
to be in, and I got great protection. We had a
lot of fun.
Brett Hundley passed for 146 yards in likely his final home game for the Bruins, losing a matchup with Hogan for the fourth
time in three years.
After an up-and-down season, an inspired
Hogan made sure the Cardinal didnt miss
top receiver Ty Montgomery, who sat out

with a shoulder injury.


Hogan completed his
first 12 passes, scrambled for key yards and
showed poise in the
pocket, particularly in
avoiding a sack before
uncorking a 37-yard TD
throw to Cajuste 41 secKevin Hogan onds before halftime to
cap a 92-yard drive.
Just six days after a blowout win over rival
Southern California, UCLA retained none of
that momentum or passion in its third home
loss of the season. The loss ended the
Bruins five-game winning streak, which
had given them an outside shot at the fourteam playoff after a slow start to their season.
After joining UCLAs seniors for a
pregame ceremony, Hundley said farewell to
the Rose Bowl with a tentative, ineffectual
effort, getting sacked four times while the
Bruins were shut out for the final 41 minutes.
Backup Jerry Neuheisel finished the game
after Hundley left with UCLA on the Stanford
goal line midway through the fourth quarter.
Coach Jim Moras defense also rarely
slowed down the Cardinals deliberate
offense, which outgained UCLA 436-262
and had the ball for nearly 38 minutes.
For all his success in a three-year revival
of the UCLA program, Mora still hasnt

beaten Stanford or Oregon.


The Cardinal are comfortable in Pasadena
after playing here on the last two New Years
Days, and Hogan sparked the Pac-12s lowest-scoring offense to a dominant, clockchewing performance that measured up with
Stanfords best efforts during its current renaissance.
Hundley hit Thomas Duarte with a sharp
TD throw to cap a strong opening drive on a
beautiful 80-degree day in Arroyo Seco, but
Stanford answered with an impressive half of
offense after several poor weeks.
The Cardinal made two 75-yard scoring
drives capped by Wrights TD dive and
Rectors sliding catch of an impressive 22yard TD throw by Hogan. While Hundley
struggled, Hogan capped his magnificent
half with a late TD throw to Cajuste, putting
Stanford up 21-10. Hogan went 14 for 15 for
189 yards and two TDs before halftime.
The Cardinal went 80 yards on their first
drive of the third quarter, capped by Wrights
2-yard run. Stanfords physical defense
repeatedly shut down Hundley, who reverted
to the indecision and panic of his worst performances at UCLA.
UCLA retired Troy Aikmans No. 8 jersey
in a halftime ceremony, honoring the quarterback who led the Bruins to a No. 1 ranking and a Cotton Bowl victory in 1988
before heading to the Dallas Cowboys for
three Super Bowl victories.

STAFF AND WIRE REPORT

Stanford volleyball fell one game shy of a


perfect season. Just three days after its first
loss of the 2014 campaign though, Stanford
wrapped up the Pac-12 Conference title with
a sweep of archrival Cal.
The No. 1-ranked Cardinal dominated at
Haas Pavilion Friday afternoon with a 25-15,
25-19, 25-15 win over the Golden Bears to
seal up the conference crown, finishing one
game ahead of No. 5 Washington. Stanford
had a chance to clinch the title Tuesday night
against Washington, but the Cardinal suffered their first loss of the season after a 28game win streak to start the year a new
program record.
The Pac-12 title is the 19th in program history and the eighth in the 14-year career of
Stanford head coach John Dunning.
Junior outside hitter Jordan Burgess paced
the Cardinal with 14 kills, putting her at 984
career kills. Sixteen more and she will
become the 15th Stanford player ever to
reach the 1,000-kill plateau.
Junior middle blocker Inky Ajanaku added
10 kills and a .562 hitting percentage
against just one error. She also totaled a
match-high four blocks. Junior setter Madi
Bugg had 37 assists. Senior libero Kyle
Gilbert had 16 digs to go a perfect 30 straight
games with double-digit digs this season.

Raiders have to go it without Murray against Rams


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALAMEDA Oakland Raiders running


back Latavius Murray failed to pass the final
test of the NFL-mandated concussion protocol
and will not play Sunday against St. Louis.
Murray had been limited in two practices earlier this week but was held out of Fridays workout after being ruled out against the Rams.
Interim coach Tony Sparano declined to
go into details about Murrays situation or
whether the second-year running back had
suffered any type of setback.
He did not pass the last part of the test,
Sparano said. I dont need to go into those
details but hes out.

Losing Murray is a significant


blow
to
Oaklands offense.
He rushed for 112 yards
and two touchdowns in the
Raiders 24-20 victory
over Kansas City on Nov.
20 the teams first victory in more than a calendar year. Murray was
Latavius
knocked out of the game
Murray
in the first half after
absorbing a helmet-to-helmet hit by Chiefs
safety Kurt Coleman.
After the game, Murray walked through the
Raiders locker room smiling and in good spir-

its. He was that way earlier this week and


sounded hopeful of playing against the Rams.
Im feeling better each day as we go
along, Murray said Wednesday. With
these kinds of things you just have to take it
one day at a time and you just have to follow
the right procedure so Im just making sure
Im doing that and listening to what the
trainers have me doing.
Murray had been buried on the depth chart
until his breakout night against the Chiefs.
Sparano had previously indicated the
Raiders would increase Murrays workload
over the remainder of the season, but that
was before Murray suffered the concussion.
Oakland will likely continue to rely on

Darren McFadden as its primary back


against the Rams. Fullback Marcel Reece,
who rushed for 34 yards on seven carries
during the winning drive against Kansas
City, is also an option, though Sparano was
vague when asked about that possibility.
Well see, Sparano said. He ran the ball
well. He should get carries.
Sparano was equally evasive when asked
who would return punts against St. Louis and
whether wide receiver Rod Streater would play.
The Raiders leading receiver a year ago,
Streater has been out since suffering a broken foot in Week 3. He underwent surgery
and was placed on injured reserve. He
returned to practice this week.

UNC womens hoops tops Stanford


By Kalani Takase
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HONOLULU The disappointment was evident in Tara


VanDerveers voice following
Stanfords 70-54 loss to North
Carolina Friday.
The fifth-ranked Cardinal (3-2)
fell to the 11th-ranked Tar Heels (50) in in an opening-round game of
the Rainbow Wahine Shootout. It
was their second loss in three games
after a 33-4 record and a national
semifinal appearance after a Final
Four run that included a nine-point
win over North Carolina in the Elite
Eight round.
I was disappointed in our
effort, VanDerveer said of her
team. First of all I think that
North Carolina has an excellent
team. They have a lot of weapons,
they have a great inside game and
they shot really well from the outside. They were hitting perimeter
shots and had a solid inside-outside
game going. I think they really
exposed us in a lot of ways.
Latifah Coleman scored a careerhigh 19 points and Xylina
McDaniel added 15 and Stephanie

Mavunga added 10 points with eight


rebounds for North Carolina.
Coleman, a senior guard, also had
six rebounds and six assists. She
made 7 of her 12 shots from the
field, including 4 of 6 on 3-pointers, and scored 14 of her points in
the second half.
North Carolina shot 61 percent
(17 of 28) from the field in the second half.
Lili Thompson scored 11 of her
15 points in the second half to lead
Stanford, which shot just 31 percent (17 of 55) from the field for
the game.
Stanford had a season-low scoring
output and was held well below their
season average of 83.8 points per
game.
Both teams struggled shooting
the ball in the first half. Stanford
was made just 6 of its 30 shots from
the field (20 percent), while North
Carolina shot 9 of 36 (25 percent),
including 4 of 17 on 3-pointers.
The Tar Heels never trailed in the
game and led by as many as 22
points late in the second half following a 3-pointer by Coleman
from the left wing and a putback by
Mavunga two possessions later to

cap a 23-6 run.


Late in the first half, Stanford cut
it to 19-18 on a coast-to-coast
layup by Thompson, but went
scoreless in the final 3:16 of the
half. North Carolina closed out the
first half on an 8-2 run and held a
24-18 lead at halftime.
Our defense in the second half
wasnt as good our defense in the
first half was better, VanDerveer
said. Our offense was very stagnant
and we just need more people contributing. We dont have much of an
inside game right now, which we
have to work on. We werent moving the ball as well as needed to and
we were flat and we cant play that
way.
Thompson entered the game averaging 26 points, which ranks her
ninth nationally, but she missed her
first nine shots from the field. It
wasnt until the 3:41 mark in the
first half that she scored her first
points on a pair of free throws.
It was the third game against a
ranked opponent in the last four
games for both teams. Stanford beat
then-No. 1 Connected 88-86 in
overtime on Nov. 17, but lost to
No. 10 Texas 87-71 three days later.

What were the answers on the quiz

Can I take picture of your answers for
the class work?
With college applications due soon for
seniors, I hear these questions getting
asked more frequently.
Many of my motivated peers want to succeed
and thrive in the challenging courses they
signed up for but find
themselves spread too
thinly; there is only a
limited amount of time
in a day and there is a
seemingly endless list of things that need
to be get done.
This isnt uncommon among students;
many people would sacrifice their academic
integrity for the expense of success.
According to a survey done by Donald
McCabe, out of 24,000 students in over 70
high schools, 95 percent of students admitted to some form of cheating whether it was
cheating on a test or copying homework.
Throughout teens academic careers, it is
constantly emphasized to be honest and
that cheating is unacceptable and not worth
the consequences. But cheating has
achieved a normalcy in the schooling system; students are so used to copying homework from other people or getting answers
for a quiz that it isnt a big deal anymore
and sometimes students dont even consider
it as cheating.
Even though there are different forms of
cheating, people who cheat are generally
driven by the same reason: the pressure to
succeed.
High schoolers face a significant amount
of pressure to get good grades to get into
the colleges of their dreams. The statistics
can often be scary as well; in 2014,
Stanfords acceptance rate was a low 5.24
percent and Harvards was around 5.9 per-

Dragons The Other Place focuses on dementia


By Judy Richter
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT

Dementia takes a terrible toll not only on


the victim and family but also on society in
general. Sharr Whites The Other Place
shows how dementia affects one woman and
her family.
In the Dragon Theatre production directed
by Kimberly Mohne Hill, Judith Ann Miller
plays Juliana Smithton. Shes a 52-year-old
neurologist who has developed what might
be a breakthrough product to treat dementia
and, presumably, Alzheimers disease,
although that term is never used.
Pitching it to a group of doctors at a seminar Islands, she becomes distracted by
what she says is a young woman wearing a
yellow bikini and sitting in the back. She

becomes so distracted that she cant continue.


Shortly thereafter, her husband, Ian (Mark
Drumm), an oncologist, refers her to a neurobiologist colleague, Dr. Cindy Teller
(Maureen ONeill, called The Woman in the
program), for an evaluation.
Juliana is hostile, accusing Cindy and Ian
of having an affair and saying that he wants
to divorce her. Ian denies her accusations.
Juliana also insists that she has been in
touch with their daughter, Laurel (ONeill),
who disappeared 10 years ago at the age of
15. The Smithtons never knew what happened to her.
She might have run off with Julianas
research assistant, Richard Sillner (Paul

liance of a man whose mind could
bring down an enemy yet couldnt
process simple human interactions.
Was Turing autistic, or did he have
Aspergers syndrome? Who knows
today wed probably say he was on
the spectrum. Hes a man who cant
coherently answer whether he wants a
sandwich for lunch. At the same time,
hes conceiving a machine that will
somehow defeat the Germans own
cipher machine, the Enigma, which
uses code that changes every 24
hours, rendering traditional decrypting methods useless.
As we learn about this painful duality in Turings life, we also learn he
was gay, in an era when homosexual

activity was criminalized in Britain.


After the war, he was prosecuted for
indecency. Given a choice of chemical castration or prison, he chose the
former. He committed suicide at 41, a
cyanide-laced apple by his bedside.
Oddly, though, the film addresses
Turings death only with a quick line
in the postscript, and no word on the
method. Its a strange omission
particularly given that Turing was
said to have been fascinated by the
Snow White story.
We begin after the war, with the
police investigating a mysterious
break-in at Turings home and wondering what this fellows about (they
dont yet know about his role in the
war). Soon we flash back to 1939, and

starts alienating his colleagues, especially the charismatic Hugh Alexander
(Matthew Goode, excellent and also
perhaps the best-looking mathematician ever portrayed onscreen). (Well,
at least until Keira Knightley makes

Turing is ridiculed for insisting on
building his machine, taking up time
and money while soldiers are dying.
Denied funding, he makes a direct plea
to Churchill, who puts him in charge.
Thats when he hires Joan Clarke (an
appealing Knightley), the only
woman on the team and his eventual
fiancee.
Still, things go badly, until an offhand remark by a woman in a bar
makes Turing realize a way to speed up
the machines activity. Eureka!

cent. Teens often face the challenge of balancing school
work, time with family and friends, extracurricular activities and, on top of that, taking care of themselves and getting enough sleep.
There is also a big amount of pressure to be the best and
keep up with other students. After all, there are only a few
spots at the most prestigious universities in the United
States.
Students who often face the conflict of choosing success
over integrity should rethink how much they can handle.
Before they decide to sign up for six AP courses to get into
the college of their dreams, they should ask themselves,
Can I handle all this work and can I do well with this
course load?
There are many people I know who have challenging
classes but are able to complete their work and do well in
their classes without cheating. The people who do cheat
are capable of doing the same thing if they tried. Its not
fair to the successful students who dont cheat that other
people get the same grades, but get them in an unfair manner.
Last of all, students should consider what they are doing
when they are cheating. It is dishonest to their peers, their
teachers and most of all, themselves.
Sometimes students forget that school is about learning
concepts to apply to the real world and to broaden their
horizons. School isnt a competition, even though it feels
like it at times. It isnt worth throwing ones integrity and
values away just for an A on a test.

The plays title refers to the familys former weekend cottage in Cape Cod. In her delusional state, Juliana goes there.
Instead she encounters the owner, a woman (ONeill) who
after first being angry kindly appeases her.
Despite the plays tragic topic, it has its humorous
moments. It also has moments of hope.
Miller skillfully navigates Julianas ironic emotional journey through personality changes and intellectual decline.
Because so much of what she says may or may not be true, the
audience must depend on Drumms solid Ian for the truth.
ONeill does well in the other female roles, especially the
woman in the cottage. Stout does well in his limited role as

88-second Star Wars teaser
A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, a
helmetless storm trooper appeared in frame,
panicked and sweaty in the middle of vast
desert landscape, kicking off the first official
look at Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
After months of leaked images and idle
speculation around director J.J. Abrams
film, Disney and Lucasfilm on Friday debuted
an 88-second teaser trailer for the seventh

TUITION
Continued from page 1
loans taken out already, he is unsure if
these will increase even more with the
rising tuition. There is more than $1
trillion of outstanding student loan debt
in the United States, according to the
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
I do know that statistics have been
thrown around saying that X percent of
students are covered by financial aid,
he wrote in an email. The problem
with this statement is that financial aid
includes loans that come from companies that have monopolized the student
loan industry, resulting in high interest
rates. I hope that the state government can step up and provide the UC
system with apt funding, and if they
cant, the federal government should.
After all, the affordable education system that creates the next generation of
leaders is becoming unreachable.
UC Executive Vice President Nathan
Brostrom, who oversees the systems
budget, told the committee that only
students with annual family incomes
above $175,000 would pay all of the
increases, and more than half of all UC
students would continue paying no
tuition thanks to financial aid.
Students from families that earn
between $100,000 and $150,000 a year
are likely to see their tuition costs go
down over the next four years because
of a middle-class scholarship program
approved by the state, Brostrom added.
Students and politicians are still
speaking out about the increase, including Gov. Jerry Brown who is on the
Board of Regents. He has insisted the
systems finances have improved under
his watch and that Napolitano and the

physicians to screen for food insecurity as well as raise public awareness
about the issue. Crain asked Ande to
take on the project to develop a photoeducational display demonstrating
that its difficult to tell by just looking
that a child is hungry. Some may even
be obese due to excessive low quality
food intake.
Children arent identified as to
which group they belong, Ande said.
The only people who know which
children are food insecure are the parents and the photographer. See if you
can figure it out. If you try you may
find that you cant tell if a child is hungry by looking.
Ande, who first picked up a camera as
a little girl, began capturing the
images in the exhibit in San Francisco
neighborhoods, family homes and at

WEEKEND JOURNAL
regents should be able to make do without raising tuition. He took particular
aim at the contention by several
regents that the system needs to
increase the salaries of administrators
and faculty so it can compete with elite
private universities for talent.
Assemblyman Rich Gordon, D-Menlo
Park, expressed his disappointment in
the change.
I am deeply concerned about the
impact this tuition increase will have
on our students and their families, especially as many Californians are still
struggling to recover from the recent
economic downturn, Gordan said in a
prepared statement. Assembly Speaker
Toni Atkins has outlined several alternative methods that would provide the
UC system with the funding it needs
without raising tuition for Californias
families such as increasing state funding and raising tuition for out-of-state
students. I also encourage the UC system to thoroughly examine its expenses and evaluate areas where cuts can be
made. We need to find a solution that
puts our students first, preserves access
to higher education in California, and
protects the quality of a UC education.
Those like University of California at
Santa Barbara first-year student Matt
Lanthier of San Mateo werent surprised
by the increase, but noted its hard to
fathom how expensive is becoming.
Its tough to swallow, he said.
People are fairly upset. Theres not
tons of surprise, but people are really
frustrated.
Another, fourth year student Janice
Pang, also of San Mateo, participated
in the protests at the University of
California at Davis, that included students occupying Olson Hall on campus.
She found the news really frustrating as
well.
I found it really upsetting the admin-

istration thought they could do this to


us without any student consent, she
said. I understand it affects a lot of peoples families. If I had to choose, I
probably would not attend UC again;
my family would probably not be able
to afford it.
As students continue to pay more for
tuition, there hasnt been a significant
change in the degree of academic
resources available at the University of
California at Los Angeles, said Foster
Citys Ellen Mi, a third-year business
economics major, minoring in statistics.
The tuition hike is going to be hard
for everyone, she wrote in an email.
There are already students struggling
with fees right now. As for my family, I
cant say that we are struggling to get
by or anything, but with higher tuition
fees, it feels like I shouldve just gone
to a private school. With an increase in
price, going to UCLA the public
school doesnt seem worth it anymore.
Although students like Foster Citys
Nathan Zang, an electrical engineering
and computer science major at UC
Berkeley, say their families wont be
taking a major hit from the tuition
increase, his familys discretionary
budget may be erased. This means no
trips to see grandparents back in China
and other high-cost items will most
likely decrease or stop in its entirety.
The budget plan they (UC) have
posted gives almost no substantive
information what does $203.4 million of Investment in academic quality
and faculty mean? he wrote in an
email. Furthermore, there has been no
real discussion on whether the tuition
hikes should happen; the committee
simply ignores the students because we
have no real power in deciding the
tuition.

the Tenderloin Health Fair back in


October 2013.
Whats happening is really kind of
a symptom of a lack of awareness in
people that this kind of thing can go
on and its acceptable in a country
thats very wealthy, Ande said. A lot
of wealth is being concentrated in the
upper 2 percent of people; when children dont get enough to eat it affects
them for the rest of their lives.
Ande wanted the exhibit at the Mercy
Center, run by the Sisters of Mercy,
because people are there for spiritual
retreats and are looking at the big picture, she said.
Im hoping to wake up a sense of
compassion and feeling were all in
this together in this crazy planet, she
said.
Dr. Crain, a retired pediatrician of 40
years, is a member of California
Chapter 1 Child Advocacy Committee,
said doctors need to screen better for
hunger and in a scientifically evidence-based way. Crain is taking on a
larger Whos Hungry? project that

encourages pediatricians to identify


food insecure families using two
screening questions from the U. S.
Department of Agriculture Household
Food Security Scale: 1. Within the past
12 months, we worried whether our
food would run out before we got
money to buy more. 2. Within the past
12 months, the food we bought just
didnt last, and we didnt have money
to get more.
Just like we screen for high blood
pressure, Crain said.
Crain and other are now working
with San Francisco and Marin food
banks, CalFresh and Second Harvest
Food Bank.
The exhibit is on display at the
Mercy Center Art Gallery through Dec.
31. The Gallery is located at 2300
Adeline Drive in Burlingame and is
open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. For more
