City effort to open streets at blast site
By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Residents in the Glenview neighborhood
could soon have access to most of the streets
closed since the Sept. 9 San Bruno explosion
as city officials begin vetting a plan to fence
the now-cleared demolished area.
Those living in the Glenview neighborhood
inquired about reopening the closed streets —
Claremont, Vermont and Glenview drives —
during a town hall meeting Friday. During a
special City Council meeting Tuesday, Police
Chief Neil Telford outlined a plan to add
fencing and cut back security to allow resi-
dents to pass through most of the area.
Glenview, between Claremont Drive and just
south of Earl Avenue, will remain closed. The
blast site is still part of an investigation and
needs to be rebuilt.
Before changes can be made, the city will
reach out to residents in the area to vet the
plan.
Councilman Ken Ibarra was concerned
about removing the barriers to a sensitive
area.
San Francisco OKs healthier kids’meals

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — For some veggies-
hating children, Happy Meals won’t be so
happy anymore.
City lawmakers on Tuesday approved legis-
lation that they hope will force fast-food
chains such as McDonald’s to make their chil-
dren’s meals healthier or stop selling them
with toys.
The Board of Supervisors voted 8-3 to
approve an ordinance that would limit toy
giveaways in children’s meals that have
excessive calories, sodium and fat. It also

With the exception of

Drive, there is no reason

closed, said City
Manager Connie
Jackson.
In addition, security
for the area is expensive.
Currently, round-the-
clock security watches the site which costs
$28,000 per week, Telford said. An officer is
also given overtime to patrol the area.
Instead, adding fences to the area at a cost of
$22,000 annually would allow for most of the
streets to be reopened. Security would be cut
back to two individuals during the day and
one at night for the closed blast site area.
Vice Mayor Rico Medina recognized the
expense of the security and applauded the
sensitivity city staff was using with those
affected.
“We know we need to start to move for-
ward,” he said.
Fencing was originally proposed to be at

each meal.
The measure drew enough support to over-
come an expected veto by Mayor Gavin
Newsom. The supervisors are expected to
vote again to override the veto.
If not successfully challenged, the law
would go into effect December 2011. It would
make San Francisco the first major city in the
nation to impose such requirements, although
a similar law has been approved in
California’s Santa Clara County.
McDonald’s Corp. representatives, who say
the law would take the joy out of the Happy
Meal, derided the vote outside of lawmakers’
chambers at City Hall.

King Park fence
draws complaints
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A city’s effort to protect an athletic field from wear and tear by
enclosing it with a 10-foot-high fence has drawn criticism from
neighbors who say the fence is imposing and unwelcoming.
San Mateo enclosed the King Park field near the Martin Luther
King Community Center at Monte Diablo Avenue and Eldorado
Street with a permanent fence back in March after using tempo-
rary fencing for years to protect the field.
Complaints to the city’s Parks and Recreation Department,
however, have prompted it to consider lowering the fence and
installing a sliding gate between the field and picnic area.
King Park field is used for athletic events, including soccer and
softball, involving children and adults.
The field is heavily impacted by both permitted and drop-in
users and needs turf renovation annually, according to a staff
report by Dennis Frank, the city’s landscape architect.
The fence was locked to users starting in March until it
reopened Aug. 1, Frank said. The gates have remained unlocked
since Aug. 1 and does not prevent general public access to the
field, according to Frank’s staff report.
“However, the community perception was much different.
Community members articulated that the fence was imposing,
that it created an unwelcoming, claustrophobic enclosure and that
it felt institutional,” according to Frank’s staff report.
Complaints regarding the fence have included that it prevents
access to the field, there was no public notification before the
fence was installed and that it is ugly.
Generally, the city does not notify the public when it makes iso-
lated improvements, Franks said in the staff report.
“Staff acknowledges that it erred in not seeking public feed-
back prior to making the improvements and that we will be more
sensitive in the future to seeking public input on less formal
improvements,” Franks said in the staff report.
The city reached out to the Home Association of North Central
San Mateo for input and the fence has been a hot topic at recent
meetings. Ben Toy, on the association’s board, said the King Park
field is a valuable asset and is the only open space left in the
North Central neighborhood.
“I would rather have people playing on dirt than no one play-
ing on pristine grass,” Toy said.
The field is especially vital to the neighborhood because of its
blue-collar, working-class residents, Toy said.
“It is a place where the community can come together,” he said.
The field is also lighted, which makes it a valuable community
asset, said Bertha Sanchez, also on the neighborhood associa-
tion’s board.
“I understand the need to control who uses the field because the
turf gets chewed up,” Sanchez said.
It will cost the department $12,500 to erect the lower fence and
another $750 to install vinyl clad fabric to the fence.
The fence was erected with federal Community Development
Block Grant funds.
The Parks and Recreation Commission will decide whether to
lower the fence at its next meeting.
The commission meets 7:30 p.m., tomorrow, Conference Room
C, City Hall, 330 W. 20th Ave., San Mateo.

Electrical problem
on shuttle delays launch
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. —
The final launch of space shuttle
Discovery has been delayed again,
this time because of an electrical
problem.
NASA decided early Tuesday
evening to bump the liftoff until at
least Thursday. The decision came
less than 24 hours before the sched-
uled launch on Wednesday.
The space agency has until
Sunday — possibly as late as
Monday — to send Discovery to the
International Space Station.
Otherwise, it will have to wait until
December because of sun angles.
selling alcohol to minors
Clerks at seven businesses were
cited for selling alcohol to minors
after a decoy operation was conduct-
ed by San Mateo police Oct. 28.
The operation used underage
cadets acting undercover to attempt
to purchase alcoholic beverages
from local retailers. The officers and
teenage decoys visited 18 establish-
ments that are licensed by the
California Department of Alcoholic
Beverage Control to sell alcoholic
beverages. Seven clerks from differ-
ent establishments sold alcoholic
beverages to the minor decoys.
The following establishments sold
alcoholic beverages to minor
decoys: Safeway, 860 N. Delaware

St.; CVS, 862 N. Delaware St.; 25th
Avenue Liquors, 101 W. 25th Ave.;
Liquor City, 1230 W. Hillsdale
Blvd.; Bob’s Liquor, 522 Peninsula
Ave.; Taqueria El Nayarita, 660 E.
Third Ave.; and Fiesta Latina
Market, 1424 Cary Ave.
In each incident, the clerks selling
the alcohol were cited, and the inci-
dent involving each establishment
was documented for administrative
review by ABC, according to police.
The cited clerks will face misde-
meanor criminal charges and the
business owners will face possible
administrative charges and fines
administered by the ABC.

Arnott wins treasurer-tax collector
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
In the battle of status quo versus new blood
in the county Treasurer-Tax Collector’s
Office, the current brass won — barely.
Despite having the smaller war chest and
the specter of the county investment pool loss
hanging over her head, interim treasurer-tax
collector Sandie Arnott beat out college dis-
trict trustee Dave Mandelkern for the perma-
nent position, according to semi-official
results.
From the time the first absentee results
were posted, Arnott was in the lead. Arnott
finished Election Night with 63,293 votes, or
51 percent, while Mandelkern received
Filling county seat now requires vote Local vehicle fee hike passes
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
Voters can now weigh in on how San Mateo
County fills mid-term vacancies for its elected
officials after passing Measure U.
Measure U, which required a simply major-
ity but earned 65.8 percent of the vote, asked
voters to tweak the county charter to give the
Board of Supervisors specific guidelines for
filling vacancies outside of regularly sched-
uled elections. The measure also lets a board
member resign in advance of actually depart-
ing but makes that decision irrevocable. The
same holds true for any elected office.
Specifically, the measure will require the
Board of Supervisors to fill vacancies with a
special election instead of an appointment if it
happens within the first two years and nine-
and-a-half months of a term. If a vacancy hap-

The two stayed neck and
neck for the entire
evening, often separated
by less than a few thou-
sand votes.
Neither Arnott nor
Mandelkern returned calls
Sandie Arnott for comment on the out-
come.
Arnott, 57, has spent two decades in the
Treasurer-Tax Collector Office, moving up
the ranks to the number two position. Arnott
said current Treasurer-Tax Collector Lee
Buffington’s retirement forced her to choose
between running for the position herself or
pens before Oct. 15 of the third year of a term,
the board must hold an election. After that
point, the board has the option to choose
between election, appointment or leaving the
seat vacant.
The measure also requires resignations in
other county-elected offices to be given in
writing and deemed irrevocable. These vacan-
cies could be filled by an all-mail ballot at the
pleasure of the Board of Supervisors.
The proposals have immediate ramifications
because Supervisor Mark Church is stepping
down at the beginning of 2011 to assume the
role of assessor-county clerk-recorder and
elections chief. Although his departure was
clear after the June primary, the current coun-
ty charter does not allow the replacement
process to begin until he leaves. Now the
board must hold a special election.
essentially training his elected replacement.
The office has multiple functions like tax
collection, revenue services and managing
the county investment pool which involves
money from more than 1,000 accounts of
cities, districts and agencies.
Arnott had said her priorities if elected
were considering hiring an investment advi-
sor, push a deferred tax program for seniors
and the disabled and implementing a state-
administered energy conservation improve-
ment loan program, in 2011.
Over the summer, Arnott got a little more

San Mateo County voters approved a $10
vehicle registration fee that will raise $6.7 mil-
lion annually for 25 years to fund countywide
transportation programs and fix local roads.
Measure M passed with 54.8 percent of the
vote. The City/County Association of
Governments put the measure on the ballot to
impose the fee for vehicles registered in the
county because the state faces a $20 billion
deficit and is spending less on transportation.
Currently, the fee for San Mateo County resi-
dents is $4.
State funding has diminished for road work

health but in July was officially given author-
ity to make decisions in his absence.
Although she was not heading the office
when the 2008 Lehman Brothers bankruptcy
leeched $150 million from the county invest-
ment pool, the battle for the treasurer position
became one in which she was asked to defend
the office’s actions.
Mandelkern, a member of a district that
lost $25 million in the loss, was among the
loudest voices calling for new blood and
pointing fingers at Arnott for her role and her
subsequent defense of the office.
Mandelkern poured more than $100,000 of
See ARNOTT, Page 26
Under the formula, the city of San Mateo would
get about $375,000 annually for road fixes
while Foster City would get about $106,000
annually. Each city would receive at least
$75,000 with the passage of Measure M.
The other half, about $3.2 million, would go
toward funding transit operations including
services for seniors and people with disabilities
provided by Caltrain and SamTrans. About 5
percent of the money would go toward adminis-
trative cost. C/CAG is a county agency charged
with addressing transportation and air quality
issues, among others, and is comprised of a 21-
member board of local elected officials.
Cities can use the money for pavement resur-
facing, pothole repair, signs and striping, traffic
signals and for funding local shuttles. The
money can also be used for street sweeping and
storm-inlet cleaning.

Slate fails to capture health care district
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
An incumbent’s mission to dissolve
the health care district he sits on by
pushing a slate of like-minded candi-
dates failed as voters
overwhelmingly
rejected Frederick
Graham and Michael
Stogner.
Jack Hickey easily
was re-elected to the
Sequoia Healthcare
District board but
Graham and Stogner
Jack Hickey did not resonate with
voters. Hickey
recruited both men to run in hopes of
gaining a majority on the board to stop
the district from collecting nearly $7
million a year in local property taxes.
The district’s role in the community is
to dole out the property tax revenue to
local nonprofits that provide health care
services in the community.
Dr. Jerry Shefren, who served on the
board previously, earned the most votes
with 19.8 percent. Hickey finished close
behind Shefren with 18.9 percent.
Shefren will join Hickey on the board
along with incumbent Art Faro, who just
edged out Ruth West-Gorrin. As of late
last night, Faro had 17,468 votes or 17.6
percent and West-Gorrin had 17,084
votes or 17.2 percent of the vote.

Fourteen innovative math and science

The awards went to teachers for pro-

to develop critical thinking skills and
apply math and science concepts to

vote getter they need to reckon with
that,” said Hickey, who was trailing
Shefren by less than 1 percent of the
vote late last night.
Hickey’s goal to dissolve the district
may end up in a petition process, he said.
“Maybe it should be put on the ballot
so voters could decide if the district
should stay intact,” Hickey said.
While the incumbents won back their
seats, Shefren will replace former sheriff
Don Horsley for the third open seat on
the board. Horsley vacated his Sequoia
seat to successfully pursue a county
supervisor seat.
Shefren said it is good for the district
to have checks and balances on the

“It is important to give youth the
opportunity to discover how relevant and
exciting math and science exploration
can be. Experiential learning can moti-
vate and inspire students to become cre-
ative designers of global technology,”
Church said in a prepared statement.
The winning proposals were chosen
by a committee of representatives from

superintendent, the San Mateo County
Board of Education, the Millbrae School

tion liaison.

role.
“I’m disappointed my colleague is
focused on ending the work the district
does,” Shefren said last night.
Shefren served on the board previous-
ly and has also spent the past year on the
district’s grants committee, which
decides which local nonprofits receive
millions in annual grant money.
Faro is the former chief executive offi-
cer at Sequoia Hospital and said the dis-
trict’s money goes a long way toward
keeping people healthy.
Sequoia Hospital was sold to Catholic
Healthcare West in 1996, thus ending the
need for the district, Hickey contends.
The awards were given to:

• Kenney Middle — Jill Grant

The Giants shock the world
I
t might seem odd to assign a
workaday blue-collar charac-
ter to people who make hun-
dreds of thousands, if not millions,
of dollars a year. But that is the
appeal of the 2010 San Francisco
Giants.
True, a World Series victory after
52 years in San Francisco was
quite the accomplishment and the
simple act of winning the baseball
games to get to the feat does won-
ders for team chemistry.
But it was that chemistry that
made this team so fun to watch.
There is no way an opening day
lineup could be drawn up like the
one that won the World Series,
which interchangeable players both
well-monied and supplemental. The
fact that Edgar Renteria exploded in
the series after spending much of
the season on the bench was testi-
mony to how the team won
throughout the year. When one
player struggled, no matter his con-
tract, he sat. And his replacement
could be the hero any night. It was
a true testament to the adage of the
whole being greater than the sum of
its parts. The players put aside ego
to give others opportunities to
shine. No one could have anticipat-
ed the impact of midseason acquisi-
tions Pat Burrell, Ramon Ramirez
and Javier Lopez or the early-sea-
son callup of Buster Posey. Even
‘But that is the beauty of winning a World
Series. Every trade, contract or pickup now
makes sense. Every managerial decision
worked. And every contribution mattered.’
grabbing Cody Ross off the waiver
scrap heap was a stroke of genius.
The Giants were a team cobbled
together out of necessity. If Aaron
Rowand hadn’t slumped, Andres
Torres would not have had a chance
to shine. If Renteria hadn’t been
hurt, Juan Uribe may not have had
a chance to hit all those homers. If
Jeremy Affeldt and Dan Runzler
hadn’t gotten hurt and the Giants
were playing with no left-handed
relievers out of the pen, then
Ramirez and Lopez might still be
on other teams. If Bengie Molina
hadn’t been slumping, there may
not have been such a need to call up
Posey. And if the Padres hadn’t
claimed Ross off waivers, then the
Giants might never have felt a need
for another player in an already
packed outfield. And if Barry Zito
hadn’t imploded in the second-to-
last game of the season, there may
not have been such an urgency to
allow a just-turned 21-year-old
Madison Bumgarner to shine on the
big stage.
But all those pieces came togeth-
OPINION
er in a masterful and wonderful set
of events that led to the late-season
charge to grab the National League
West title, then best the Braves and
the Phillies. In 2002, it was
“Dustiny” with skipper Dusty
Baker at the helm, but this was
Bruce Bochy’s year when manage-
ment took the hands off the reins
and let him play with the pieces he
had in the way he felt was best.
As someone who has followed
the Giants closely for years, there
is a pattern to a season and to how
a team comes together. The Joe
Nathan/Francisco Liriano/Boof
Bonser trade for A.J. Pierzynski in
2003 may have been terrible at the
time, but who is to say that without
it, the Giants wouldn’t have Nathan
as closer instead of Brian Wilson
and Yorvit Torrealba (who was dis-
patched from the Giants soon after
the trade) as catcher instead of
Posey?
But that is the beauty of winning
a World Series. Every trade, con-
tract or pickup now makes sense.
Every managerial decision worked.
And every contribution mattered.
It has been said the Giants were
a tough to team to follow this year,
but I don’t think so. Compared to
the years since 2003, it’s been
great. The players played as a team
and that allowed new heroes to
arise. The team’s linchpin is its
solid pitching, and the idea that the
rest of the crew was made up of
castoffs and misfits is a little unfair.
They shocked the world by playing
the game the way it was meant to
be played — by working hard, sup-
porting their teammates and trying
to have fun. If that is not a shining
example in sports and in life, then I
don’t know what is.

Clarification on field use story
Editor,
I am the president of the Belmont
United Soccer Club, a Belmont non-
profit youth sports organization that
supports the Notre Dame de Namur
University Koret Field CUP
Amendment. I am writing you to
clarify what I feel is a really mis-
leading statement in the “Sound and
the fury” article that came out in the
Oct. 27, 2010 edition of the Daily
Journal about the Belmont City
Council meeting on the NDNU
Koret Field CUP Amendment. This
article makes it sound like NDNU is
battling “all” local residents in order
to get the existing CUP amended.
That is actually not true, whatsoev-
er. In fact, an overwhelmingly vast
majority of the local neighbors in
close proximity to Koret Field and a
very large number of other local
residents in Belmont have come out
in total support of the amendment to
the CUP. There is actually a very
small minority of neighbors that
oppose the amendment to the CUP.
Also, please reflect that Greg Snow
is a local Belmont resident himself.

there were a similar number of pro-
ponents and opponents. Neither is
accurate. I live just up the hill from
Koret Field and I think it is very
important to understand that only a
small minority of the neighbors are
opposed to the revised permit and
the number of those at the meeting
opposed to the permit were dwarfed
by those supporting it. The mem-
bers of the opposition are akin to a
cranky old couple across the street
from a park who yell at the kids just
for playing and having fun while
making some noise. Most of
NDNU’s immediate neighbors sup-
port their use of Koret Field. An
even larger proportion of Belmont’s
citizenry as a whole support it. That
a tiny fraction of NDNU’s neigh-
bors have derailed the enhanced use
of Koret field is sad.
A field for kids and young adults
to play in and engage in vigorous,
healthy fun is a good thing. It is
good for them, NDNU and the
entire community. It is something
that should be encouraged and not
forbidden. I am very happy that the
Planning Commission approved the
revision to the permit and I strongly
encourage the council to approve it.

Stocks rise on Election Day

NEW YORK — Major stock indexes
rose Tuesday as investors awaited the
results of Congressional elections, put-
ting the Dow Jones industrial average
near its highest point of the year.
The Dow Jones industrial average rose
more than 60 points. The Dow has now
traded above its 2010 closing high of
11,205 four times over the past two
weeks, but failed to close above that
level each time. Eric Thorne, an invest-
ment adviser with Bryn Mawr Trust
Wealth Management, said many traders
have been using the end of the day to
take short-term profits.
A Republican gain of at least one
house of Congress is most likely already
Wall Street
reflected in stock prices. The slide of the
dollar, which fell against the euro and
the yen, helped push stocks higher on
Tuesday as investors bought riskier
assets.
Small companies performed especial-
ly well. The Russell 2000, the index that
tracks the performance of smaller corpo-
rations, jumped 2 percent to 712.89. The
index is up nearly 14 percent for the
year, roughly double the return of the
Dow and the broad Standard and Poor’s
500 index.
The Dow rose 64.10, or 0.6 percent, to
close at 11,188.72. It reached its closing
high of 11,205.03 on April 26.
The broader Standard & Poor’s 500
index rose 9.19, or 0.8 percent, to
1,193.57. The S&P 500, which is more
closely watched than the Dow by profes-
sional investors, is also still below its
2010 high of 1,217.28, reached on April
23.
The technology-focused Nasdaq com-
posite index reached a new high for the
year, as tech titans like Apple Inc.,
Microsoft Corp. and Amazon.com Inc.
all gained more than 1.2 percent for the
day. The Nasdaq rose 28.68, or 1.1 per-
cent, to 2,533.52. Its previous high for
the year was 2,530.15, which came in
late April.
Uncertainty over the size of the
Federal Reserve’s expected stimulus
program due Wednesday has kept the
market from ending with either big gains
or losses in recent days. Traders are
waiting for the Federal Reserve to
announce plans to buy bonds to spur
spending, a process known as quantita-
tive easing.

Is GM really worth as much as Ford?

By Sharon Silke Carty
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DETROIT — If investors pay what
General Motors hopes to get for its stock
in a planned IPO, they’ll have to buy the
logic that the company’s stock-market
value should be similar to its closest
competitor, Ford Motor Co. But Ford is
making far more money these days and
its U.S. market share is rising while
GM’s is falling and its new management
team has little auto industry experience.
Ford’s market value — calculated by
multiplying its current share price by
the total number of shares outstanding
— is almost $50 billion. GM’s total
would be close to that if it is successful
in selling a portion of its shares in an
initial public offering later this month
somewhere between $26 and $29 a
share. That price range was confirmed
Monday by three people briefed on the
sale who asked not to be named because
a formal announcement has not yet been
made.
But is GM really worth as much as
Ford right now? Ford has been working
on a rebuilding plan for five years. It
earned $1.7 billion in the third quarter,
its sixth consecutive quarterly profit. It
also managed through the financial
downturn without taking taxpayer
money, a big plus in the minds of
American car buyers who increasingly
are choosing its new cars and trucks.

EA posts 2Q loss but results surpass expectations

By Barbara Ortutay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Lower expenses and
strong sales of games such as “FIFA
11” helped Electronic Arts Inc. post
Tuesday a smaller net loss for its fiscal
second quarter, with adjusted results
handily surpassing expectations.
But EA’s shares dipped in after-hours
trading as its earnings guidance for the
current quarter seemed to disappoint
investors even as the company reaf-
firmed its guidance for the full fiscal
year.
For the three months ended Sept. 30,
the company behind games such as
“Rock Band” and “Madden” posted a
net loss of $201 million, or 61 cents per
share. This compares with a loss of
$391 million, or $1.21 per share, the
same time last year.
Revenue fell 20 percent to $631 mil-
lion from $788 million.
On an adjusted basis, however, EA
earned a profit of 10 cents per share
and its adjusted revenue was $884 mil-
lion.
On this basis EA had forecast a loss
of 10 cents per share.

Business briefs
Homeownership stays at lowest level in a decade
WASHINGTON — The nation’s homeownership rate
remained at its lowest in more than a decade, hampered by a
rise in foreclosures and weak demand for housing.
The percentage of households that owned their homes was
unchanged at 66.9 percent in the July-September quarter, the
Census Bureau said Tuesday. That’s the same as the April-June
quarter. The last time the rate was lower was in 1999, when the
rate was 66.7 percent. For decades, 64 percent of American
homes were owned by their occupants. That began to climb in
1995, with strong encouragement from President Bill Clinton
and later on from President George W. Bush.
Democrats, including Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass., pushed
for mortgage buyers Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to purchase
more loans targeted toward low-income Americans.

Oracle to acquire e-commerce software maker ATG

OAKLAND — Oracle Corp. is adding to its software arsenal
software with the $1 billion all-cash deal announced Tuesday
for a company called Art Technology Group Inc., which helps
businesses interact with online shoppers to boost sales.
The acquisition deepens the push by one of the world’s
biggest business software makers to control more of the tech-
nology that powers companies’ day-to-day chores.
ATG, which is based in Cambridge, Mass., works with cus-
tomers such as AT&T, Best Buy and CVS to improve their web-
sites and streamline online purchasing. ATG’s software moni-
tors its customers’ websites and helps target sales pitches by
analyzing the behavior of visitors to those sites.

Toyota asks court to dismiss acceleration lawsuits

NEW YORK — Toyota Motor Corp. has asked a federal court
in California to throw out lawsuits over acceleration defects in
its cars, saying many of the plaintiffs never identified any defect
or experienced sudden, unintended acceleration.
The automaker filed its motion in court Monday.
“Toyota is confident that its cars provide safe, reliable trans-
portation and that the plaintiffs have no credible claims of loss
or defect,” said Cari K. Dawson, an attorney for Toyota, in a
company statement.

Voters return Boxer to Senate for fourth term

By Kevin Freking
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — Democrat Barbara Boxer
won her fourth term to the U.S. Senate on
Tuesday, dashing GOP hopes of removing the
liberal icon with a strong challenge from former
Hewlett-Packard Co. chief executive Carly
Fiorina.
The campaign was among the most difficult
in the 69-year-old senator’s long political
career, as she found herself defending
Democratic attempts to turn around the strug-
gling economy.
Hundreds of Boxer sup-
porters gathered for a victo-
ry party at the Renaissance
Hollywood Hotel, where a
loud cheer went up when
her name was flashed on a
giant screen as the project-
ed winner.
Barbara Boxer The crowd waved yel-
low “Boxer 2010” and
“Viva Boxer” signs while swaying to a salsa
band that performed “Victory, Victoria.”
Fiorina’s campaign did not immediately con-
cede the race, but retired firefighter Randy
Burtt, 58, a supporter of Fiorina at her party in
Irvine, dropped his head and shook it from side
to side when he heard Boxer had won.
He said her re-election would mean “more of
the same, more bureaucracy, more government
and less in your pocket.”
Fiorina blamed Democrats for failed eco-
nomic policies, but Boxer turned the tables
and said Fiorina represented a return to
Republican policies from the past that cre-
ated the recession.
She also painted Fiorina as too extreme for
most California voters on issues ranging from
abortion to gun control.
Fiorina, a multimillionaire, was aided by a
wave of attack ads funded by the U.S. Chamber
of Commerce and groups opposing abortion,
gay marriage and gun controls.
To help counter the challenge, Boxer received
several visits from President Barack Obama and
Vice President Joe Biden.
She always said the race would be close but

Incumbent,newcomer take Harbor District
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
One incumbent and one newcomer handily
won seats on the San Mateo County Harbor
District Commission, the body whose
responsibilities range from awarding the
Mavericks surf competition permit to devel-
opment at Pillar Point Harbor and Oyster
Point Marina.
South San Francisco Planning
Commissioner Robert Bernardo, 42, started
the night ahead of his three competitors and
never budged. Current commissioner Jim
Tucker, 66, of Burlingame, netted the second-
most votes to retain his seat. They ended the
evening with Bernardo having 60,225 votes
or 33.3 percent and Tucker with 54,218 votes
or 29.9 percent.
Sabrina Brennan, 40, of Moss Beach, col-
lected 45,933 votes, or 25.4 percent, followed
by William T. Klear, 62, of Moss Beach, with
20,716 votes or 11.4 percent.

Jubilant GOP wins the House, falls short in Senate
By David Espo
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Resurgent Republicans
won control of the House and cut deeply into
the Democrats’ majority in the Senate in
momentous midterm elections shadowed by
recession, ushering in a new era of divided
government certain to complicate the final
two years of President Barack Obama’s term.
House Speaker-in-waiting John Boehner,
voice breaking with emotion, declared shortly
before midnight Tuesday that the results were
“a repudiation of Washington, a repudiation
of big government and a repudiation of politi-

said. “It’s very surreal to
me and I’m just really
thankful to the county vot-
ers for placing confidence
and trust in me.”
Although Tucker is an
incumbent, this campaign
was different, too,
Jim Tucker because his last run four
years ago was uncontest-
ed. He praised his opponents and said he’s
not only looking forward to the future as a
commissioner but possibly working with
those he defeated.
“This is a very exciting time for the Harbor
District,” said Tucker.
With incumbent Ken Lundie declining to
run for re-election, the commission was
assured at least one new face for the first time
in 12 years. All of the candidates conceded
during the campaign they were left not only
explaining who they were to voters but also
the position being sought.

Obama monitored returns at the White
House, then telephoned Boehner with con-
gratulations in a call that underscored the
power shift.
On a night of triumph, Republicans fell
short in their effort to gain control of the
Senate and take full command of Congress,
although they picked up at least six seats.

Harry Reid in Nevada, winner in an especial-
ly costly and brutal race in a year filled with

fishing industry. The dis-
trict itself is saddled with $10 million in debt.
As the four contenders tried differentiating
themselves, these were the issues addressed.
Bernardo, communications manager for the
Port of Oakland, prioritizes reducing the debt
while preparing for ferry service. He’s also
suggested a strategic plan including diverse
business and possible private/public partner-
ships to keep costs down. One of his exam-
ples was having Genentech sponsor search
and rescue boats.
“This is where begins the real work,”
Bernardo said.
Tucker joined the commission in 1998 and
currently serves as treasurer. He said the dis-
trict is in great financial shape, with $12.4

defeat was Rep. Tom Perriello, a first-termer
for whom Obama campaigned just before the
election.

come to feel the same once he is settled into
his new role.
He’s looking forward to creating communi-
ty space at Pillar Point and developing a
restaurant and other services into a “ferry vil-
lage” at Oyster Point. He’s also excited by the
idea of building new administrative offices at
Pillar Point’s Perched Beach and leasing out
space to federal and state groups like the
National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration.
Brennan campaigned on keeping the fish-
ing industry viable, studying growth before
jumping into new development and building
a restaurant at Oyster Point to serve ferry
commuters and businesses like nearby
Genentech.
Klear labeled himself a capitalist environ-
mentalist, focused on generating new revenue
but protecting the land and water. He wanted
to restore and renovate the harbor and draw
marine and research groups to Pillar Point.

Former world champion surfer Andy Irons dies

By Jaymes Song
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HONOLULU — Former three-time world
surfing champion Andy Irons has died.
Phil Irons, the father of the 32-year-old
surfer, confirmed his son’s death Tuesday. The
cause of death was not immediately known.
The younger Irons was found dead in a
hotel room in Dallas, where he was on a lay-
over en route to his home on Kauai. He was
returning from Puerto Rico, where he was to
have competed in the 2010
Rip Curl Pro Search.
Employees at the Grant
Hyatt Hotel DFW Airport
found the body and called
Dallas-Fort Worth
International Airport
police at 9:44 a.m.
Public Safety officials
Andy Irons said the guest had checked
in Monday and had died
of unknown causes.
The Tarrant County Medical Examiner will
perform an autopsy Wednesday to determine
the cause of death.
Irons was expected to compete against two
Australian surfers in his first heat Saturday,
but didn’t show up, much to the confusion of
commentators.
Rip Curl officials said Irons withdrew
Sunday, citing an illness he contracted during
an event in Portugal.
Family members from Kauai were headed
to Dallas late Tuesday.
Irons was scheduled to compete in the Vans
Triple Crown of Surfing in Hawaii, which is
scheduled to begin next week. He was a four-
time winner in the prestigious event.
“The thing that I think many of us appreci-
ated the most about Andy was that he was an
incredibly real person,” Triple Crown spokes-
woman Jodi Wilmott said. “Where a lot of

Can they repeat?

ARLINGTON, Texas — No arguing the
World Series champion Giants have dominant
pitching. General manager Brian Sabean isn’t
about to break up that talented, homegrown
bunch.
He knows full well more hitting might be
needed to make another deep October run. As
is the case most winters for this club, San
Francisco will go searching for a big bat that
fits the budget. And it’s not supposed to be a
great free-agent market this offseason.
At least now Sabean and company know
they can win without that marquee slugger.
The Giants are on top again, securing their
first World Series crown since the franchise
moved West in 1958 with a 3-1 victory over
the Rangers in Game 5 on Monday night.
The first question that always comes up
afterward: Can they do it again?
“We’re going to celebrate for a while. We’ll
go to our organization meetings not this week
but next and we’ll sort it out as best we can,”
said Bill Neukom, the Giants’ bowtie-wearing
second-year managing partner. “As we did
this year, we will burn the midnight oil. We
will not go to bed any night without having
figured out who we are, where we want to get,
how we get there, who we need to get us
there.”
The Giants headed home late Monday on
festive charter flight. The victory parade is
Wednesday, pushed back because of
Tuesday’s elections.
Neukom himself let loose for a little while.
Soaked with beer in the winning clubhouse,
he bounced up and down with his arm around
infielder Juan Uribe.
“Juan, Juan, Juan, U-ribe!” he hollered.
For all the near misses by generations of
Giants greats — Willie Mays, Willie
McCovey, Barry Bonds — anyone with a con-
nection to the orange and black had reason to
cheer this long-awaited title.
“A day does not go by until today that I
don’t think about the ’02 Series,” former
owner Peter Magowan said, fighting tears.

Gryphons
roll to title
By Josh Koehn
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Not too many athletic programs can draw
upon a pool of less than 300 high school stu-
dents and avoid getting run off the court.
But in the case of the Crystal Springs girls’
tennis program, a championship season has
been years in the making. The Gryphons
ended the regular season last week with a 10-
2 overall record and unbeaten mark in eight
West Bay Athletic League Skyline Division
matches.
The reason for this season’s stellar record
has been a by-product of two key components:
dedicated student-athletes and a familiar sys-
tem in place. Anthony Jones took over as head
coach of the program in 2005 and the former
Foothill basketball player said he has seen
each of his girls grow into their roles since that
time.
“The main reason that we’re so strong this
year is, No. 1, it always helps to have motivat-
ed players that buy into what we’re trying to
do as far as hard work in practice and not
being afraid to make mistakes,” Jones said. “It
also helps that we have a direct feeder pro-
gram from middle school.
“I get to see who is coming up and who is
going to be strong. The evaluation process is
longer.”
While Jones has had a longer assessment
period than most coaches, the end result this
season has been far shorter matches. Kristen
Chui, Michelle Laszlo and Pheabe Chen, the
Gryphons’ No. 1, 3 and 4 singles players,
respectively, have each gone undefeated in
league play this season, while No. 2 Torie
Tsuei finished 7-1 in league play. All three
doubles pairings — Alexandra Loh and
Christina Park (No. 1), Hope O’Leary and
Jessica Wang (No. 2), and Alex Kereszti and
Zoe McCrum (No. 3) — only lost one match
each in eight Skyline division matches, and
only a total of five matches were lost in 70
total for the Gryphons’ league portion of the
schedule.

Cal’s Mansion takes over for injured Riley

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BERKELEY — Quarterback Brock Mansion
thought he would have to wait until 2011 to get
a chance to start for California. Kevin Riley’s
season-ending knee injury changed all that.
Golden Bears coach Jeff Tedford said
Mansion, a redshirt junior who has played spo-
radically over the last two seasons, will start
ahead of sophomore Beau Sweeney in Cal’s
game at Washington State this week. Sweeney
had been Riley’s backup until two weeks ago.
Riley was hurt early in Saturday’s 35-7 loss
to Oregon State when he was hit in the left knee
by Beavers defensive tackle Brennan Olander.
Riley’s knee bent backward and the senior
quarterback immediately fell to the turf clutch-
ing his leg. MRI tests later revealed he suffered
a sprained ACL and strained MCL and ACL.
Riley also partially tore the calf muscle con-
nected to his knee.
Only a year ago Mansion was buried on Cal’s
depth chart behind Riley and Sweeney. He then
began this season as the Bears’ third quarter-
back before being elevated to the backup job
two weeks ago.
Now he’s set to make his first start since high
school.
“It has tested my patience but you have to
keep grinding and grinding,” Mansion said after
practice Tuesday. “The harder you work for a
longer period of time, the better it’s going to
pay off for you at the end.”
Running back Shane Vereen noted the Bears
had to shrink their playbook when Mansion
replaced Riley against Oregon State but said
that won’t be the case this week.
“We know his capabilities, we know the
quarterback he can be and I think he’s going to
step up to the plate and deliver for us,” said
Vereen, the Pac-10’s fourth-leading rusher.
“(Riley) has always been a tough player for us,
and to see him go down was kind of tough. But
at the same time we have to rally behind Brock.
I think he’ll be able to cut it loose. We’ll be
fine.”
Mansion steps into a tough situation. The
Bears are unbeaten at home but haven’t won a
road game all year.
“Since (Riley) has been down I’ve been try-
ing to be a sponge and absorb as much as I can,
little mechanical things,” Mansion said. “I can’t
really describe it but you just feel that much
more comfortable understanding the timing and
what we want. I want to cut it loose, play foot-
ball and put some points on the board.”

49ers place Heitmann on injured reserve
By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — Longtime
San Francisco 49ers center Eric
Heitmann was placed on season-end-
ing injured reserve Tuesday, clearing
roster room for the addition of new
linebacker Thaddeus Gibson.
The Niners (2-6), in their bye week
after beating the Denver Broncos 24-
16 in London on Sunday, claimed
Gibson off waivers from the
Pittsburgh Steelers. He will get work

Heitmann had started every game at
center each of the past three seasons.
He played 14 games there in 2006
before breaking his right leg, needing
surgery and missing the final two
games.
Replacing someone as essential as
the guy who snaps the ball to the
quarterback was a tough task. Baas
hadn’t played center regularly since
his senior season at Michigan, but
played one game there at the end of
the ’06 campaign in Heitmann’s
place.
“It’s been exceptional,” Singletary
said of Baas’ work filling in. “I
remember talking to him during
training camp when Eric initially was
injured and just trying to get a feel for
where he was in having not played

Kyle Shanahan praised Russell’s
talents, but said the other factors do
come into consideration when eval-

“I don’t think you consider any-

Shanahan said. “Everyone in the

Heitmann tried to help in any way

meetings. He will be forced to take on
such a role again now.

Game 5 victory over the Texas

Ofelia Guiriba, who also planned to
attend the parade.
Huge crowds are expected,

urge people to take public trans-

Police also will be out in force. At

Sabean creatively turned the Giants into a contender — and
then a champion. His roster of castoffs and misfits, including
in-season acquisitions Pat Burrell and Cody Ross, and rookie
Buster Posey after a late May callup, came through with sur-
prises in every round.
The Giants got by Atlanta, then stunned the heavily favored
two-time defending NL champion Phillies. They took care of
the Rangers deep in the heart of Texas.
“Right now it’s a little bit surreal,” Sabean said.
The Giants got two victories from two-time reigning NL Cy
Young Award winner Tim Lincecum against Rangers ace Cliff
Lee — unbeaten in the postseason before this — and a loaded
Rangers lineup. San Francisco received spectacular defense
from second baseman Freddy Sanchez, who also delivered
with four hits and three RBIs in the 11-7 World Series-open-
ing win last Wednesday.
“There’s just so much tradition and history,” Sanchez said.
“For us to be able to do this, that’s why it was truly a team
effort.”
Series MVP Edgar Renteria produced two game-winning
hits, including a three-run homer in the seventh inning
Monday, all while playing with a torn biceps.
The Giants hit .237 in the postseason but had a 2.47 ERA.
Their postseason batting average was the lowest for a World
Series champion since the 1988 Los Angeles Dodgers batted
Their pitching carried them just as it had all year for a team
that clinched the NL West on the season’s final day — and in
its third try. San Francisco won the close games with an unim-
pressive offense.
With Lincecum, Matt Cain, Jonathan Sanchez and rookie
Madison Bumgarner, Sabean has quite a formidable rotation
set for 2011. One of the first big tasks will be deciding whether
to re-sign first baseman Aubrey Huff.
The Giants will be counting on more from $126 million
pitcher Barry Zito, who was left off the roster for all three
rounds in the playoffs but handled it with class all the way.
The 2002 AL Cy Young Award winner with the Oakland
Athletics failed to reach 10 wins for the first time since his
rookie season in 2000. His 4.15 ERA is the fourth-highest of
his career. He went 1-8 with a 6.72 ERA over his last 11 out-
ings and 10 starts and only had one victory in his last 15
appearances. The stretch included a career-worst nine-game
losing streak from July 21 to Sept. 14.
Zito was right there rooting even when he wasn’t pitching.
“That’s the biggest deal for me, 53 seasons or 52 years —
however you want to add it up — teams have been going out
there every year trying to bring this thing home,” Zito said.
“And they haven’t been able to do it. To be able to be a part of
a team to bring something so special to the city of San
Francisco, where my heart personally is because I’ve been in
the Bay Area for 10 years as a professional.”

Sharks pepper Wild goal,come up empty
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ST. PAUL, Minn. — Niklas Backstrom
stopped 36 shots, Andrew Brunette scored the
game’s only goal and the Minnesota Wild shut
out the powerful San Jose Sharks 1-0 on
Tuesday night.
The Sharks held an 18-4 shots advantage
midway through the second period, but found
themselves trailing after Brunette scored a 5-
on-3 goal with 7 minutes left in the period.
Harassed by Wild defensemen Brent Burns
and Nick Schultz, and denied by Backstrom all
night, the Sharks’ dangerous top line of Joe

shutout since March 3, 2010, at Calgary.

Study: Concussion rate
higher than expected
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TORONTO — The proportion of junior
hockey players who suffer concussions is far
more significant than previously thought,
according to a study that has researchers call-
ing for changes to how Canada’s national
game is played at all levels.
“The results of this study demonstrate an
incidence of concussion significantly higher
than any other study in the literature — seven
times higher,” lead investigator Dr. Paul
Echlin said.
Echlin, a sports medicine specialist, said
Monday the study recorded the number of
concussions sustained by members of two
unnamed junior hockey teams during the
2009-2010 regular season.
Seventeen players had a total of 21 concus-
sions during 52 physician-observed games —
with almost one-quarter of those occurring
among players involved in on-ice fights, say
the researchers, whose study is published in
the November issue of the journal
Neurosurgical Focus.
Echlin said that during the season, 29 per-
cent of players who had a concussion went on
to suffer a second or recurrent concussions —
brain injuries that have the potential to result
in lifelong physical and cognitive deficits.
Also, 69 percent of the hits that caused con-
cussions were shots to the head, he said, not-
ing that four out of five of those were deter-
mined to be “purposeful versus incidental.”
Players who suffered a brain-rattling con-
cussion were not able to return to the ice for
almost 13 days on average. But for one-third
of players, the time until they returned to the
rink after their brain injury was much longer.
“There is no such thing as a minor or mild
concussion,” Echlin said. “When identified
and treated appropriately, we believe that
most individuals ... who sustain a single con-
cussion will have a complete recovery.
Landis, coach to be tried
in French hacking case
By Pierre-Antoine Souchard
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PARIS — American cyclist Floyd Landis and
his coach Arnie Baker will stand trial in a hacking
case that targeted a French doping lab, judicial
officials said Tuesday.
The officials spoke on the condition of
anonymity because the proceedings are supposed
to remain secret.
The officials said Judge Thomas Cassuto, who
sits in Nanterre, just west of Paris, made the deci-
sion Oct. 15. No trial date has been set.
The case is part of sweeping investigation into
computer hacking, triggered by a complaint filed
by the Chatenay-Malabry lab denouncing intru-
sions into their computer system. Police investi-
gating the lab’s complaint found a common link
to another hacking case, a consulting firm

the league at 31.6 percent.
The win snapped a five-
game losing streak for the
Wild against the Sharks and
snapped Backstrom out of a
Antero funk against San Jose.
Niittymaki Before the shutout,
Backstrom was 2-7-3 with
a 3.19 goals-against average vs. the Sharks.
The Fin made several key saves on Sharks
power plays, including denying Joe Pavelski in
the third on a 5-on-4 advantage.
“Multiple concussions, especially those
associated with lack of appropriate identifica-
tion and treatment, may increase the individ-
ual’s risk for adverse long-term problems.”
Paul Melia, CEO of the Canadian Centre for
Ethics in Sports in Ottawa, described the inci-

for parents, for coaches, for hockey association
executives at all levels in the system.”
But Melia said trying to eliminate or at least
reduce the incidence of concussion in hockey
— and indeed in all contact sports — is a
social issue as much as one of health and safe-
ty for young athletes.
“And that is what makes it difficult to
address head-on,” he said. “Players don’t want
to appear weak or to be letting their team
down. From a very young age, they’re encour-
aged to suck it up and play through the pain.
Parents are anxious for the kids to get back on
the ice. Coaches are often focused on winning
ahead of athletes’ safety. The media often
highlights and glorifies the gratuitous vio-
lence in the game.
“We should be making it easy for the play-
ers and the adults around them to do the right
thing when it comes to concussion,” he said.
“And yet it would appear that we’ve created
an environment that’s doing just the opposite.”
Dr. Michael Cusimano, a neurologist at St.
Michael’s Hospital in Toronto, said it’s time
that leading hockey organizations — from
the NHL and Hockey Canada to the networks
that broadcast games and parent and player
associations — stop talking about the dan-
gers of concussion and start taking action to
prevent it.

aged here constantly, there are thousands

The prosecutor’s office had argued against
sending Landis to trial, contending the inquiry
failed to show he participated in the hacking or
knowingly received internal lab documents that
had been obtained fraudulently. But the judge,
who has the final say, disagreed.
In January, a French arrest warrant was issued
for Landis and Baker so they could be questioned
about hacking at the Chatenay-Malabry lab dat-
ing to September 2006. The lab uncovered ele-
vated testosterone levels in Landis’ 2006 Tour de
France samples, and he was stripped of his victo-
ry.
Baker, a retired doctor and longtime Landis

Landis is to be tried for “receiving in the fraudu-

CSM to host conference tournament GRYPHONS

Randy Wright is keeping the postseason in per-
spective.
In order for College of San Mateo women’s
water polo to accomplish the coach’s goals for the
season, which require finishing no lower than third
place in the Coast Conference while also gaining
a .500 record, the Bulldogs (9-10) will need to win
at least two games at this weekend’s conference
finals.
“Our goal has been to one-up our position from
fourth to third,” Wright said. “I don’t want to jinx
it. … Our goal is to finish third; it would be nice to
finish better, but our goal is to finish third.”
The Bulldogs might have a bit of a built-in
advantage, as the finals will be held at the new
CSM Aquatic Center, which was completed in the
spring. CSM received the No. 4 seed out of eight
teams and will face No. 5 Ohlone College at 1:15
p.m. Friday.
Having defeated Ohlone twice this year, includ-
ing the regular season finale, Wright is confident
his team can advance, which would most likely
leave the Bulldogs in a semifinal meeting with top- qualifying matches, said Michael Flynn,
seeded Foothill on Saturday. The championship
and consolation match would then follow later in
the day.

counted on to continue pacing the Bulldogs’

Zenyatta made early 8-5 favorite in BC Classic
By Beth Harris
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOUISVILLE — Zenyatta’s
growing popularity outside horse
racing led to her odds getting ham-
mered down to 8-5 for the $5 mil-
lion Breeders’ Cup Classic.
The horse with the 19-0 record
was made the early favorite in a
field of 12 for Saturday’s 1 1/4-mile
Classic, where she will try to end
her career with one more win.
Churchill Downs oddsmaker
Mike Battaglia originally had
Zenyatta at 5-2 on the morning line.
“Then my wife showed me the
latest issue of Oprah magazine with
the most influential women of the

2-1,” he said. “Then I saw ‘60
Minutes,’ so I knocked her down to
8-5. We’re all looking for something
special.”
Zenyatta, who is also featured in
this month’s issue of fashion maga-
zine W, will break from the No. 8
post against the boys.
“We like that number. It’s one of
our favorite numbers,” said Ann
Moss, who owns Zenyatta with her
husband Jerry. “It’s considered to be
a lucky number.”
At 6, Zenyatta is the oldest horse
SPORTS
in the Classic, which she came from
behind to win last year on Santa
Anita’s synthetic surface.
This time, she’ll be running on
dirt against an accomplished field
that includes Preakness and Haskell
winner Lookin At Lucky, Whitney
winner Blame, and Quality Road.
Blame was installed as the 9-2
second choice and will break from
post No. 5. Quality Road was
third choice at 5-1 and drew the
No. 1 post. Lookin At Lucky was
the fourth choice at 6-1 and will
start from the far outside No. 12
post.
Those three and Zenyatta are the
only horses listed at single-digit
odds in the Classic.
Also in the Classic is Jockey Club
Gold Cup winner Haynesfield, who
beat Blame in that race and is 12-1.
A trio of horses — Preakness run-
ner-up First Dude, Fly Down and
Kentucky Derby third-place finisher
Paddy O’Prado — were at 15-1.
Espoir City from Japan and
Musket Man, third in the 2009
Kentucky Derby, were at 20-1.
Etched and Pleasant Prince are the
longest shots in the field at 30-1.
“It’s a tough race,” Jerry Moss
said. “These are great horses. We

Zenyatta is 5-0 this year, with one
win coming on dirt in the Apple
Blossom at Oaklawn Park in
Arkansas. The others were on syn-

where she is based.
A repeat victory in the Classic

Learning your way around the (non-dairy) milk case
By Jim Romanoff
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
When it comes to milk, cows seem
practically passe.
Grocers these days are jammed with
milks made from almonds, rice, hazel-
nuts, cashews and — of course — soy
beans. The trick to enjoying these bever-
ages is to match the best variety with
how you plan to use it.
In general, you’ll get the smoothest,
most dairy milk-like flavor from soy,
which is low in fat. Producers have been
making it — and trying to make it simi-
lar to dairy milk — for a long time. Plain
varieties can have a bit of a soy flavor,
which some people dislike. But this
often isn’t the case with flavored soy
milks, such as vanilla.
Milks made from almonds, hazelnuts
and cashews will have a rich flavor and
thick texture, as well as a pleasantly
nutty taste. Rice milks tend to be a bit
thinner than soy or nut milks and have a
slightly sweeter flavor.

Regardless of what they are made
from, most non-dairy milks are available
in a variety of flavors, including plain,
vanilla and chocolate. When using these
milks in baking or other sweets, vanilla
is ideal, as these tend to have the creami-
est flavor. But for savory recipes — such
as a creamy soup — stick with plain
(and, ideally, unsweetened).
This basmati-almond rice pudding
with mango uses a vanilla flavored
almond milk both for its nutty flavor and
its sweetness. No additional sugar is
required for the recipe.

afield as London, New York, Sao Paulo and
Tokyo, took a 14-hour train ride north, then
marveled at the bounty of a land where the
northern lights shimmer like an electric green
cloud and the indigenous people have 90 words

too, with global warming driving up tempera-
tures and foreign companies mining for gold.
As the planet transforms, an increasing num-
ber of chefs are stepping out into the wild and
creating food defined by a specific time and
place — a way of cooking that has become the
next big movement after the science projects of
molecular gastronomy.
One of its pioneers, Redzepi, who is from
Denmark, shot to first place on Restaurant
Magazine’s list of the world’s 50 best restau-
rants this year with his Copenhagen restaurant,
Noma. In Lapland, he saw a world of gastro-
nomic possibilities in the fuzzy mosses and
mushrooms of the forest floor. For the dinner, he
covered carrots with pine needles and steamed
them so their essential oils impregnated the veg-

Superstar chef David Chang of New York’s
Momofuku restaurants also participated. He
was struck by the abundance of edible shoots

“To be able to forage everywhere, it’s crazy,” he
exclaimed. He created a Lapland version of
Japanese dashi soup, with spruce and reindeer

Bottura, the highly conceptual chef of Osteria

started getting noticed.
First, came a big following from people in
Brazil. Then the blog caught the attention of
illustrators in England. “Once you’re with
those London illustrators, oh my gosh,” said
Swindell.
The original point of the blog was to pro-
vide a platform for illustrators to show off
their chops, while showing off their, well,
chops. But it also has generated an interesting
conversation about food media — that food
illustrations might engage people in a way

Brazilian chef Alex Atala flew in from Sao

most of Brazil yet deforestation is not, he has

to protect it. He said, “Like Rene and Massimo,
my ethical awakening came from my job as a

Inaki Aizpitarte and Petter Nilsson, from the
wildly popular Chateaubriand and La Gazzetta

sweetly intense and gamey.
Then pastry chef Albert Adria, who made his
name alongside his brother Ferran at the
Spanish restaurant elBulli, created “snow” like
freshly fallen powder next to a lingonberry
cocktail that was warm like blood.
“If you are lost for three weeks in the wilder-
ness here, you will eat reindeer and drink snow,”
he explained.
Tears of emotion came to the eyes of the
Japanese chef Yoshihiro Narisawa when he pre-
sented his dish. He had splattered white bowls
with a lingonberry sauce that echoed the blood
spurting from the reindeer’s neck that morning.
Nestled in the sauce were strips of meat from
hare who might have fed on the berries. Over
this, he poured a clear consommé made from
wild hare, snow grouse and the leg of a bear.
The dish represented how much life it takes to

Autumn signals the start of stew season
By Jim Romanoff
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The shorter days of autumn gen-
erally signal that it is time to get out
the stew pot.
This fall, when that mood strikes
(or there’s a crowd to feed), consid-
er veering off the traditional recipe
path and trying this somewhat
unconventional, yet still classically
comforting, fragrant coconut-lime
beef stew.
Fresh ginger, ground coriander,
cumin and turmeric season a rich,
coconut milk-based sauce that gets
zing from fresh lime juice and lime
zest, plus a touch of heat from a
pinch or two of cayenne pepper.
If you want to take the theme a bit
further, substitute diced sweet pota-
toes for the carrots and use a modest
amount of chopped, fresh Scotch
bonnet chili pepper instead of the
cayenne. Serve over a helping of
steamed white or brown rice.

speaker in history seemed near an end.
With unemployment at 9.6 percent national-
ly, interviews with voters revealed an extraordi-
narily sour electorate, stressed financially and
poorly disposed toward the president, the polit-
ical parties and the federal government.
Sen.-elect Paul, appearing Tuesday night
before supporters in Bowling Green, Ky.,
declared, “We’ve come to take our government
back.”
About four in 10 voters said they were worse
off financially than two years ago, according to
preliminary exit poll results and pre-election
surveys. More than one in three said their votes
were an expression of opposition to Obama.
More than half expressed negative views about
both political parties. Roughly 40 percent of

His win over Whitman in a governor’s race
that set a campaign spending record came in a

spending was expected to exceed $162 mil-

The momentum Republicans had generated

voters considered themselves supporters of the
conservative tea party movement. Less than
half said they wanted the government to do
more to solve problems.
The preliminary findings were based on
Election Day and pre-election interviews with
more than 9,000 voters.
All 435 seats in the House were on the ballot,
plus 37 in the Senate. An additional 37 gover-
nors’ races gave Republicans ample opportuni-
ty for further gains halfway through Obama’s
term, although Andrew Cuomo was elected in
New York for the office his father once held.
Republicans were certain of at least six
Senate pickups, including the seat in Illinois
that Obama resigned to become president. Rep.
Mark Kirk won there, defeating Alexi
Giannoulias.
Democratic Sens. Russell Feingold in
Wisconsin and Blanche Lincoln in Arkansas
were turned out of office. In addition,
Republicans scored big in races for Democratic
notes when he goes before a crowd.
The campaign turned increasingly negative
in the final weeks, when the airwaves were
filled with attack ads.
Whitman’s campaign was knocked off mes-
sage when it was revealed that she had
employed an illegal immigrant housekeeper
for nine years, undermining her warnings that
employers should be held responsible and
fined if they hire illegal workers.
Brown faced his own controversy after a
Los Angeles police union released an audio
tape of a private conservation between Brown
and his campaign staffers. A female aide was
overheard calling Whitman a “whore” for cur-
rying favor with the union to win its endorse-
ment.
The controversies at times overshadowed
debates on more substantive issues such as job
creation, the budget deficit, college costs and
California race, even as polls shortly before
Election Day showed Boxer with a slight edge.
Fiorina, 56, had targeted the state’s independ-
ents — who represent about one in five voters
— as well as centrist Democrats, hoping her
message of economic renewal through private-
sector job creation would resonate with swing
voters.
She had to broaden her appeal, as all
Republicans running statewide in California
seats without incumbents on the ballot. Former
Rep. Pat Toomey won a close race in
Pennsylvania, North Dakota Gov. John Hoeven
won easily there, and former Sen. Dan Coats
breezed in a comeback attempt for the Indiana
seat he voluntarily gave up a dozen years ago.
“Republicans will continue to stand up for
the American people and for the priorities they
voted for today, and we are hopeful that the
administration and Democrat leaders will
change course,” Republican Senate leader
Mitch McConnell said in a written statement.
Democrats averted deeper losses when
Gov. Joe Manchin won in West Virginia —
after pointedly distancing himself from
Obama — for the unexpired portion of the
late Sen. Robert C. Byrd’s term, and Attorney
General Richard Blumenthal was victorious
in Connecticut, dispatching Linda McMahon,
former CEO of World Wrestling
Entertainment. Sen. Barbara Boxer was elect-
ed to a fourth term in California, overcoming
public education.
Brown’s prize for returning to the Capitol is
trying to lead the troubled state out of high
unemployment, a stagnant economy and polit-
ical gridlock. He is expected to face a multi-
billion dollar budget deficit and has said he
will start meeting with lawmakers as soon as
December to find solutions.
Successive years of steep deficits have left
the state’s general fund with $15 billion less
than it had just three years ago, leading to
severe cuts in many state programs and high-
er costs for college and university students.
Neither Brown nor Whitman offered
specifics about how to solve California’s
budget gridlock.
Brown campaigned on a moderate platform,
saying he would not raise taxes without voter
approval and would try to control labor and
pension costs by bucking the powerful public
must do, because of the 13-point voter registra-
tion edge held by Democrats. Ultimately, it was
not enough, as Boxer rallied union members
and other core Democratic supporters.
During the campaign, Boxer consistently
attacked Fiorina’s tenure at Hewlett-Packard,
saying she was responsible for laying off 30,000
workers and sending jobs to China and India.
That put Fiorina on the defensive for much of
the campaign, undermining her message that

In California, former Gov. Edmund G.

two terms more than a quarter-century ago.

Lincoln Chafee was elected governor of Rhode

Wave of mail bombs in Greece
By Nicholas Paphitis,
Elena Becatoros and Melissa Eddy
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ATHENS, Greece — Suspected Greek ter-
rorists unleashed an unprecedented two-day
wave of mail bomb attacks in Athens and
abroad, with one package reaching the office
of German Chancellor Angela Merkel on
Tuesday.
Greek militant groups are suspected of
mounting the attacks targeting embassies in
Athens and international organizations and
foreign leaders abroad. If that is confirmed, it
would mark a dramatic escalation for organi-
zations that have never before attempted to
strike targets abroad.
The campaign used small devices that only
caused one injury and minimal damage. But it
highlights the difficulty of keeping bombs out
of the international delivery system — also a
target of Yemen-based militants armed with
more powerful and potentially deadly explo-
sives.
Security at all embassies in Athens has been
increased and authorities on Tuesday suspend-
ed all international mail deliveries from
Greece for 48 hours for further checks.
By Tuesday evening, at least 11 mail bombs
had been detected in the Greek capital — one
addressed to French President Nicolas
Sarkozy and eight to the embassies of
Bulgaria, Russia, Germany, Switzerland,
Mexico, Chile, the Netherlands and Belgium.
Two more were destroyed in controlled
explosions at Athens’ international airport —
one addressed to the European Union’s high-
est court in Luxembourg and the other to law
enforcement agency Europol in the

Netherlands.
A suspicious package believed addressed to
Italian Premier Silvio Berlusconi was appar-
ently sent on board a private cargo plane that
took off from Athens airport late Tuesday. The
plane landed at Bologna airport, where the
plane was being searched, Italian police said.
It was unclear whether the bomb sent to
Germany was delivered by land or air. If sent
by plane, it would highlight the potential lim-
itations of air cargo security that remain,
despite the concern triggered by the mail
bombs dispatched recently from Yemen.
“If they have been flown, then it rather begs
the question whether European freight air

security is up to muster at all,” said UK-based
aviation security consultant Chris Yates.
But transportation industry officials also
said there are few if any security checks on
packages transported within the European
Union by road or rail.
“Once they’re in Europe, the goods are free
to move around,” said Robert Windsor, man-
ager of trade services at the British
International Freight Association.
German Interior Minister Thomas de
Maiziere said the package that arrived
Tuesday at Merkel’s office was sent from
Greece two days earlier by UPS delivery and
resembled the Athens packages.

Yemen charges U.S.-born
radical cleric al-Awlaki
SAN’A, Yemen — Faced with mounting
U.S. pressure to do more in the fight against al-
Qaida after the thwarted mail bombs plot,
Yemen on Tuesday took the surprise move of
putting on trial a fugitive U.S.-born radical
Islamic cleric wanted for his part in terror
attacks on American soil.
The move is largely symbolic, since Anwar
al-Awlaki was being tried in absentia. But it
appeared to be an attempt by Yemen’s govern-
ment to show its American allies that it takes
the cleric as a serious threat — something it has
wavered on in the past.
Al-Awlaki, born in New Mexico to Yemeni
parents, is one of the most prominent English-
language radical clerics, and his sermons advo-
cating jihad, or holy war, against the United
States have influenced militants involved in
several attacks or attempted attacks on U.S.
soil. Yemeni officials say he may have blessed
the recent mail bomb plot, though not neces-
sarily took an active part in it.
BP not spearheading oil
industry move back in Gulf
LONDON — Oil company BP PLC shied
away from spearheading any industry rush
back into the Gulf of Mexico as it revealed
Tuesday that the cost of its devastating oil spill
has jumped to $40 billion — taking the shine
off a return to profit in the third quarter.
Chief Executive Bob Dudley was forced to
raise the likely cost of the worst oil spill in U.S.
history by $7.7 billion because of delays to the
final capping of the busted Macondo well.
That dragged down third quarter net income
by more than 60 percent compared to a year
ago, to $1.79 billion from $5.3 billion.

Yee fought off a Republican candidate
with little name recognition in San
Mateo County to reclaim his Senate seat.
Yee has been in Sacramento for almost
eight years now, after serving two terms

His main focus for San Mateo County

Arnott also had her own money at

“The electorate’s reaction to this nega-

Voters gave an independent panel
authority to draw congressional districts.
Proposition 20 cruised with 62.9 percent
of the vote, with 48 percent of precincts
tallied.
That passage defeated the opposing
Proposition 27, which would have abol-
ished the panel. With 47 percent of
precincts counted, 60.4 percent of voters
voted against.
Commission promoters said the panel
prevents politicians from gerrymander-
ing, while detractors argued citizens are
unqualified for that task.
Proposition 24, which would have
repealed three corporate tax breaks,
went to swift defeat, with 59.2 percent of
voters opposed with 47 percent of
precincts counted. Businesses fought the
repeal.
Proposition 22 won easily with 62.2
percent yes votes, with 47 percent of
precincts tallied. The measure closes
loopholes that last year allowed
Sacramento to siphon $5.5 billion tem-

Proposition 26 also passed with 53.9

The race took an odd twist last month
when Vargas publicized the Tea Party’s
endorsement of Horsley. Horsley shot
back that he declined the backing and
that Vargas knew it when she made the
announcement.
Vargas promoted a seven-point plan to
get the county working again and said
the county isn’t ready for more taxes to
attack a structural deficit by 2014. Cuts
and reforms to pension and contracts are
the way to go, she said.
Horsley also agreed with the supervi-
sors not seeking a half-cent sales tax this
November but thinks a similar approach
must happen in the future if residents
don’t want a bare-bones county. He also
wants to use reserves to protect jobs
rather than send more people onto the

Mandelkern — squaring off in the
Nov. 2 runoff election. Galligan and
Guilbault backed Mandelkern in yes-

Until the first stretch in which Arnott

Bombings,mortar strikes kill 76 across Baghdad
By Rebecca Santana
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BAGHDAD — Rapid-fire bombings and
mortar strikes killed 76 people and wounded
more than 200 across Baghdad’s myriad
neighborhoods Tuesday, demonstrating the
insurgents’ ability to carry out coordinated
strikes from one side of the capital to the
other.
The attack — blasts in at least 13 separate
neighborhoods — was clearly designed to hit
civilians at restaurants and cafes where many
Iraqis were gathered to enjoy the warm
evening. The sophistication and the targets —
Shiites — suggested that al-Qaida-linked
Sunni militants were responsible for the dead-
liest day in Iraq since May.
The strikes, two days after the bloody siege
of a downtown church, were stunning in their
scope — indicating a high degree of coordina-
tion and complexity from an insurgency that
just a few months ago U.S. and Iraqi officials
were saying was all but defeated.
“They say the situation is under the control.
Where is their control?” said Hussein al-
Saiedi, a 26-year-old resident of Baghdad’s
sprawling Sadr City slum, where 21 people
were killed when a parked car blew up near a
market in Tuesday’s deadliest bombing.
“We were just standing on the street when
BONDS

ing the San Mateo Union High School
District; Measures N and I supporting the
Belmont-Redwood Shores Elementary School
District; and Measure J supporting the South
San Francisco Unified High School District
— were supported from the earliest results.
Measure P, a parcel tax benefiting Jefferson
Union, just failed to pass the two-thirds
threshold needed.
Of the bond measures, Measure O — a
$186 million bond measure that will allow the
San Mateo Union High School District to pay
off $74 million in debt, conduct upgrades at
school sites and fund a new continuation
school — won by the slimmest margin with
61 percent, exceeding the needed 55.
“Everyone’s excited for what this means for
the kids,” said Heidi Bowman, co-chair of the
Committee for Quality High Schools which is
supporting the measure, noting the infrastruc-
ture upgrades that will occur.
“The immediate general fund relief is amaz-
ing. We’re thrilled,” she said.
A detailed project list was not included in
Measure O’s bond language, but district offi-
cials have said the money is earmarked for

we heard a loud noise, and then saw smoke
and pieces of cars, falling from the sky,” al-
Saiedi said. People were fleeing the site in
panic, frantically calling the names of their
projects like replacing old classrooms, secur-
ing land and building a new continuation
school in addition to restructuring loans.
Covering outstanding debt is the largest
component to Measure O. San Mateo Union
took on an $80 million consolidation loan in
2007 which has created structural budget
issues. Currently, the debt sits at $74 million.
Paying off the loan with bond funds should
increase the general fund — from $1 million
to $2 million — since the district will no
longer be making payments.
The measure had been met with opposition,
specifically residents in San Bruno, who were
supportive of the district’s last two measures
— Measure D, a $137.5 million bond measure
in 2000, and Measure M, a $298 million bond
in 2006 — but questioned the need for a third.
If the results hold, voters will pay between
$5 to $23.86 per $100,000 of their assessed
property values. Measures M and D combined
cost voters $31.79 per the $100,000 of a per-
son’s assessed property value. The new bond
measure increases that total tax rate to $36.79
until paid off.
Belmont-Redwood Shores had two ballot
measures before residents, N and I, both of
which passed with 63.2 and 65.2 percent sup-
port respectively.
After considering various options, the dis-
trict put two measures before voters — one to
which everyone contributes and another in

relatives and friends.”
The bombings began at about 6:15 p.m. and
lasted for hours. The assailants used booby-
trapped cars and a motorcycle, roadside
Belmont only. With the passage, schools
throughout the district can be updated and res-
idents of the two cities will be taxed compara-
ble amounts.
“I was quite elated,” Board President Cathy
Wright said of seeing the results. “Almost as
much as when the Giants won [Monday]
night. I was happy to see the absentees come
in strong.”
A new school opened in Redwood Shores
this year, paid for by the residents through a
2005 bond measure. Now enrollment is grow-
ing in Belmont and measure supporters say
facilities in the city need updating. Measures
N and I aim to equitably tax residents on both
side of the city limits.
Measure N, a $35 million bond which
would cost $27 per $100,000 of the assessed
property value, was voted on by Belmont res-
idents only. The entire district supported
Measure I, a $25 million measure, a $11 per
$100,000 of the assessed property value, ben-
efiting Ralston Intermediate and to payoff
about $6 million of debt associated with
Sandpiper Elementary.
The passages of both means Redwood
Shores voters will be paying $41 per $100,000
of the assessed property value (including the
2005 measure) compared to Belmont resi-
dents who will be paying $38.
South San Francisco residents showed over-
whelming support for Measure J, a $162 mil-

bombs and mortars. Though 10 neighbor-
hoods targeted were home to mostly Shiites, a
couple of strikes hit Sunni communities as
well.
In addition to the 76 dead, 232 people were
wounded, according to police and hospital
officials who spoke on condition of anonymi-
ty because they were not authorized to speak
to the media.
Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki called the
string of blasts and the church siege crimes by
terrorists and former members of the Baath
Party — which once ruled Iraq under Saddam
Hussein — against innocent civilians
designed to provoke sectarian strife and
destablize the government.
“The criminal acts that targeted the
Christians at the Lady of Salvation church and
the civilians in Baghdad are political blasts
intending to halt the forming of the govern-
ment,” he said in a statement. Iraq has been
without a new government since the March 7
elections, leaving a political vacuum that
many fear insurgents are trying to exploit.
There was no immediate claim of responsi-
bility, but suspicion fell on al-Qaida.
“We do not have any conclusive information
at this time as to the responsible parties but
this seems to be typical AQI (al-Qaida in Iraq)
tactics,” said Lt. Col. Eric Bloom, a U.S. mil-
itary spokesman.
lion bond measure aimed at replacing aging
portables, putting technology into classrooms
and installing solar panels which is estimated
to create an ongoing savings to the district of
$500,000, according to supporters.
“I was so amazed,” said Trustee Phil Weise
of the results. “I’m so thankful for our school
community ... that gave us an incredible
amount of support for the bond across the
board.”
The South San Francisco Unified School
District is hoping to upgrade infrastructure
needs with Measure J funds, which passed
with 77.1 percent support. Installing solar
panels is one of the most talked about items
on the possible project list. Building such a
system is estimated to cost between $10 mil-
lion and $24 million. Savings in electricity
could mean more money for retaining teach-
ers or programs.
Jefferson Union High School District was
the only one to put forward a parcel tax.
Measure P, a $96 annual proposed parcel tax,
was set to generate upwards of $3 million for
the district. It fell just short of the two-thirds
thresholds gaining only 65.7 percent support.
