THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Americans
are making a little more money and
spending a lot more.
Under normal circumstances, that
would be a troubling sign for the
economy. But a closer look at some
new government gures suggests
another possibility: People are sav-
ing less money because theyre
earning next to nothing in interest.
Saving is already difcult because
of more expensive gas and food. Its
even tougher because of the lower
returns the ip side of super-low
interest rates that the Federal
Reserve has kept in place since
2008 to help the economy.
Critics say the Fed is punishing
those who play by the rules those
careful enough to set aside money
for savings or people who built up a
nest egg and are living on xed
incomes that depend on interest.
Americans spent 0.6 percent more
in September, three times the
increase from the previous month,
the government said Friday.
Spending was especially strong on
durable goods things like cars,
appliances and electronics.
At the same time, what they earned
was mostly at. Pay increased 0.3
percent, and overall income just 0.1
percent. After deducting taxes and
adjusting for ination, income fell for
a third straight month.
So to make up the difference,
many have cut back on savings. The
savings rate fell to its lowest level
since December 2007, the first
month of the recession and right
about the time the Fed started its
dramatic series of interest-rate cuts.
Considering how little you can
get for parking your money at a

Evolution is the idea of small
changes over long periods of time,
which may still be going on.
Bringing that concept to life on
the stage can be a challenge one
Cirque du Soleil is taking on in its
newest show Totem, which
opened in San Francisco Friday.
With beautiful costumes inspired by
nature, a variety of perform-
ers from around the
world help tell the
story of evolution.
Among the
characters telling
the story is Umi
Miya a gym-
nast originally
from Japan who spent time teaching
the sport in San
Mateo before
joining Cirque
du Soleil in
2009.
Thirty-year-
old Miya began
taking gymnas-
tic lessons when
he was 5. Not
only did he seem
to excel at
t h e
sport, but it was a good outlet for his
extra energy. He competed national-
ly, but didnt make it to the Olympic
level. Thats when Miya decided to
take a break from the world of gym-
nastics. He went to college and trav-
eled to Panama where he volun-
teered to help develop areas of the
country. Then, in an effort to learn
English, he moved to the United
States and coached gymnastics in
San Mateo at Peninsula
Gymnastics, where he taught for
more than two years.
Miya touched his chest at his
heart and expressed how happy he
was to have recently visited the
gym, his former colleagues and stu-
dents, many of whom plan to see
Miya in the show.

Two arrested for motel robbery
Belmont police arrested two women involved in a robbery of a
guest at the Motel 6 Monday morning and are still looking for a
third male suspect, police reported Friday.
At approximately 8:45 a.m., Belmont police were called to the
motel at 1101 Shoreway Road on the report of a robbery of a
guest who was traveling on business from the East Coast. He met
a woman in his room and was confronted by another woman and
a man. The second woman brandished a handgun and demanded
his laptop computer and camera. The victim refused, tried to
wrestle the gun from her and was punched several times in the
face by the man, according to Belmont police.
At approximately 10:25 a.m. Friday, Belmont police detectives
contacted the two women on the 1500 block of Greenwood
Avenue in San Carlos and arrested them without incident,
according to police. They were identied as Stefanie Kavanaugh,
26, a transient, and Josielyn Salgado, 28 of San Francisco. The
man is described as Filipino, in his 20s, according to police.
Anyone with information regarding this on-going investigation
is asked to contact Belmont police at 595-7400 or the Belmont
Police Crime Tip Line at 598-3000.
Hookah bar owner sentenced
to 33 years prison for murder
Bulos Paul Zumot, a Palo Alto hookah bar owner convicted
of strangling his girlfriend and setting her body on re two years
ago, was sentenced Friday to 33 years in state prison.
Santa Clara County Superior Court Judge David Cena handed
down the sentence eight months after a jury convicted Zumot of
rst-degree murder and arson in the Oct. 15, 2009 death of 29-
year-old real estate agent Jennifer Schipsi.
The sentencing of Zumot, the 38-year-old owner of Da Hookah
Spot on University Avenue, was the culmination of a case that
began two years ago at a cottage on Addison Avenue in Palo Alto.
Thats where prosecutors said Zumot killed Schipsi and then set
their home on re with her body inside to hide the evidence.
Prosecutor Charles Gillingham relied heavily on circumstantial
evidence, such as text message exchanges, to show that Zumot
was emotionally and physically abusive toward Schipsi.
Zumots high-prole attorney Mark Geragos, who was not pres-
ent, attempted throughout the four-and-a-half-week trial to dis-
credit many key aspects of the prosecutions case, including the
detection of accelerant on Zumots clothes by a trained dog named
Rosie, a ght between the couple on the night before Schipsis
death, and cellphone data. Zumot was sentenced to eight years in
prison for arson and 25 years for murder with parole.
Man accused of bailing on bogus
home repairs pleads not guilty
A man accused of stealing money from an elderly woman by
posing as a licensed contractor pleaded not guilty in San Mateo
County Superior Court Thursday, according to the District
Attorneys Ofce. Brian Scott Seefeldt, 47, allegedly responded
to a Craigslist ad placed by the 68-year-old victim who sought
help with home repairs.
According to the District Attorneys Ofce, Seefeldt, a parolee
who has been to state prison twice, responded to the ad and com-
pleted some work at the victims home.
Seefeldt allegedly became romantically involved with the
woman, whom he told he was a licensed and bonded contractor
when he told her that her homes roof needed extensive repairs,
according to the District Attorneys Ofce.
The victim allegedly paid Seefeldt $6,264 for the roof repairs
at the start of the project, but he disappeared several weeks into
the project, leaving $2,000 worth of work to be completed and
the projects workers unpaid. Seefeldt was arrested by Daly City
police on July 1 on suspicion of embezzlement and fraud against
an elderly adult. He had been held on $60,000 bail, which was
increased Thursday to $500,000 at the request of prosecutors.
Seefeldt is set to return to court for a pretrial conference on
Feb. 3 with the trial set for March.

The Millbrae murder defendant
recently granted the right to repre-
sent himself asked for his former
court-appointed attorney to step
back in because he did not realize
how much effort mounting a
defense required.
Teyseer Zaid Terry Najdawi,
28, told the court twice he didnt
realize it would be so much work,
said prosecutor Al Giannini.
Najdawi begins trial Monday on
murder and weapons charges in the
July 8, 2008 death of Jack Chu, 27,
and in a separate jail house attack on
correctional ofcers. He has pleaded
not guilty by reason of insanity and
was previously institutionalized as
mentally unt for trial.
In early October, he took over his
own defense but was denied more
trial preparation time. On Friday, he
was expected to argue a motion to
dismiss the entire case but instead
requested attor-
ney Jonathan
McDougall be
r e- appoi nt ed.
McDougall has
been acting as
stand-by counsel
since Najdawi
was granted the
right to repre-
sent himself. As
stand-by coun-
sel, McDougall
attended all proceedings but did not
offer advice or otherwise partici-
pate.
McDougall did not return a call
for comment.
Najdawi is accused of murdering
Chu, his friend, after a night of
drinking in San Francisco. Chus
body was found slumped in a car at
the intersection of Chula Vista and
Sanchez avenues in Burlingame and
connected to an early-morning
shooting reported July 8, 2008 in
Millbrae. Chu reportedly had been
in the drivers seat when shot nearly
a dozen times in the head.
Authorities assume the shooter
pushed Chus body aside and drove
the car away. A week later, police
apprehended Najdawi at a Redding
motel.
Najdawi is also charged with
felony fraud for allegedly stealing
his brothers credit card for use the
night of the murder and while evad-
ing police afterward. While await-
ing trial at the Maguire Correctional
Facility, he allegedly attacked his
cellmate, leading to an attempted
murder charge.
Before he could stand trial previ-
ously, Najdawi was found incompe-
tent and institutionalized at Napa
State Hospital. He was deemed t
earlier this year and returned to San
Mateo County.
He remains in custody without
bail.

foot tall tower and a single main
cable.
Sex offender parolees
face Halloween curfew
SACRAMENTO About 2,000
paroled California sex offenders have
no permanent home partly because of
a state law that bans them from living
near schools or parks. This
Halloween, however, many will
spend the night together under super-
vision from authorities who want to
make sure they have no contact with
children out trick-or-treating.
Its the rst time the California
Department of Corrections and
Rehabilitation is targeting offenders
who live on the streets, under bridges
or in nomadic campsites, though it
has enforced a curfew on offenders
who have permanent addresses for
nearly 20 years under what it calls
Operation Boo.

amputated because of a lengthy
emergency room delay has agreed to

Malyia Jeffers was 2 years old
when her parents took her to
Sacramentos Methodist Hospital
last November with a fever, skin dis-
coloration and weakness. According
to court documents, the family was
told to wait.

NEW YORK While more U.S.
cities are resorting to force to break
up the Wall Street protests, many
others Philadelphia, New York,
Minneapolis and Portland, Ore.,
among them are content to let the
demonstrations go on for now.
New York Mayor Michael
Bloomberg, for example, said Friday
that the several hundred protesters
sleeping in Zuccotti Park, the unof-
cial headquarters of the movement
that began in mid-September, can
stay as long as they obey the law.
I cant talk about other cities, he
said. Our responsibilities are pro-
tect your rights and your safety. And
I think were trying to do that. Were
trying to act responsibly and safely.
Still, the city made life a lot hard-
er for the demonstrators: Fire
inspectors seized a dozen cans of
gasoline and six generators that
powered lights, cooking equipment
and laptops, saying they were safety
hazards.
In the span of three days this
week, police broke up protest
encampments in Oakland, Calif.,
Atlanta and, early Friday, San
Diego and Nashville, Tenn.
State troopers in Nashville
cracked down after authorities
imposed a curfew on the protest.
Twenty-nine people were arrested
and later released after a judge said
the demonstrators were not given
enough time to comply with the
brand-new rule. They received cita-
tions for trespassing instead.
Fifty-one people were arrested in
San Diego, where authorities
descended on a three-week-old
encampment at the Civic Center
Plaza and Childrens Park and
removed tents, canopies, tables and
other furniture.
Officials there cited numerous
complaints about human and animal
feces, urination, drug use and litter-
ing, as well as damage to city prop-
erty problems reported in many
other cities as well. Police said the
San Diego demonstrators can return
without their tents and other belong-
ings after the park is cleaned up.
Earlier this week, in the most seri-
ous clashes of the movement so far,
more than 100 people were arrested
and a 24-year-old Iraq War veteran
suffered a skull fracture after
Oakland police armed with tear gas
and bean bag rounds broke up a 15-
day encampment and repulsed an
effort by demonstrators to retake the
site.
But other cities have rejected
aggressive tactics, at least so far,
some of them because they want to
avoid the violence seen in Oakland
or, as some have speculated,
because they are expecting the
protests to wither anyway with the
onset of cold weather.

OAKLAND Oaklands police
chief on Friday defended ofcers
involved in a clash with anti-Wall
Street protesters, saying they used
what they believed to be the least
amount of force possible to protect
themselves.
Interim Chief Howard Jordan
said he took full responsibility for
the actions of his ofcers, whom
protesters accused of injuring an
Iraq war veteran during the clash
Tuesday night. Scott Olsen, 24,
remained hospitalized in fair condi-
tion with a fractured skull after
police red an object that struck
him in the head, fellow veterans
said.
Jordans comments came amid
continued protests in large cities
across California, including in
Oakland where many re-established
camp outside city hall despite
police attempts at dismantling it.

The White House
reviewing Energy
Department loans
By Erica Werner
and Matthew Daly
WASHINGTON On the defen-
sive over a half-billion-dollar loan to a
now-bankrupt solar company, the
White House on Friday ordered an
independent review of similar loans
made by the Energy Department, its
latest response to rising criticism over
Solyndra Inc.
The announcement came as House
Republicans prepared for a possible
vote next week to subpoena White
House documents related to the
defunct California company.
White House ofcials said the
review would assess the health of
more than two dozen other renewable
energy loans and loan guarantees
made by the Energy Department pro-
gram that supported Solyndra.
Congressional Republicans have been
investigating the companys bank-
ruptcy amid embarrassing revelations
that federal ofcials were warned it
had problems but nonetheless contin-
ued to support it, and sent President
Barack Obama to visit the company
and praise it publicly.
Today we are directing that an
independent analysis be conducted of
the current state of the Department of
Energy loan portfolio, focusing on
future loan monitoring and manage-
ment, White House chief of staff Bill
Daley said.

Ever heard of Chickens Ball and won-
dered, what the heck is a Chickens Ball?
In 1940, a San Carlos teacher started the San
Carlos Chickens Ball as a way to raise milk
money for all of the school children in San
Carlos. The Chickens Ball is a unique com-
munity show set in the 1890s Barbary Coast of
San Francisco. Schools and community
groups perform variety skits and melodramas
to compete for pokes of gold just like they
did in San Francisco in the 1890s. A distinc-
tive San Carlos tradi-
tion, the Ball is held
every even year to raise
funds for all seven
schools in San Carlos.
Come join the fun and
be a part of the 2012
Ball.
Do you like to sing or
dance? Act? Sew? Paint? Brandish a glue gun?
Hide behind the curtain? Control the lights
and sound? Chickens Ball is a community
effort and requires the participation of many
people on and off stage. If you have a show
talent and would like to be a part of the 2012
Chickens Ball contact Chair Sonya Sigler at
ssigler@scclc.net or Production Chair
Connie Barba at conniebarba@yahoo.com.
Auditions, in groups or solo, for the 2012
Chickens Ball will be held 6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m.
Nov. 3 and 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Nov. 5 at the
Central Middle School multi-use room, 826
Chestnut St., San Carlos.

WASHINGTON Tens of thousands of
people who together gave millions of dollars to
Barack Obamas 2008 presidential campaign
have gone missing this time around. Their fail-
ure to give so far may signal that some of the
presidents earliest supporters have lost enthu-
siasm.
At the same time, Republican rivals like for-
mer Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney have
been gaining nancial strength in parts of the
country that were instrumental in swinging the
last election for Obama, according to an
Associated Press analysis of new campaign
nance data.
The presidents re-election effort is hardly hurt-
ing for cash: His campaign and the Democratic
Party raised more than $70 million combined
since July, outstripping all Republicans com-
bined by millions. But some supporters who
wrote Obama larger checks
early in the 2008 campaign
havent done so this time,
representing more than $10
million in missing dona-
tions. The APs analysis sug-
gests that Obama, belea-
guered by a struggling econ-
omy, will have to work hard-
er to win back party stal-
warts and swing voters
alike. His approval ratings have slumped to 41
percent in a recent Gallup poll, as steadfast sup-
porters have found themselves less able or less
willing to open their wallets again.
He was our state senator, and when I looked
at the Republican side, I thought, We need
some fresh blood in the campaign, said Janet
Tavakoli, 58, a nancial analyst from Chicago
who gave $1,000 to Obama in 2008. But I was
dead wrong about it, she said, and isnt sup-
porting any candidate this time.
Many Obama donors in
08 race are absent so far

OPINION 9
The new flea party
Editor,
The big difference between the Tea
Party and the Occupiers can be
explained as follows. Its like inviting
two groups of people over to your
home. One group respects your home;
they are courteous and thoughtful and
leave your home like they found it. As
they leave, they thank you for the use
of your home. The other group comes
in, helps themselves to all your food,
punches holes in your walls and leaves
a huge mess for you to clean up. As
they are leaving, they call you deroga-
tory names because you are the one
who owns the home. I will leave it to
you to guess which group is which.
These are our downtowns that they
are destroying.

Belmont city clerk race
Editor,
Sadly, it is very easy for Dave
Warden to make unsubstantiated com-
ments in a public forum and not be
held accountable for them. His many
statements can easily be refuted if one
chooses to do his or her homework.
Most people, however, are under the
assumption that if an esteemed vice
mayor is saying these things, they must
be true.
Here is one example.
Statement: Theres not enough work
for two full-time people in the City
Clerks ofce. Whenever Ive been
there they dont seem to be very busy.
Fact: Mr. Warden has probably visit-
ed the city clerks ofce a half dozen
times in the last year, so he couldnt
make that assertion. Besides elding
20-30 phone calls, visits and emails
per day, the city clerk and deputy city
clerk have sensitive duties and obliga-
tions. You can go to city clerk job
description for further information.
Should we be unfortunate enough to
go the route that Mr. Warden is propos-
ing? What happens to the city clerks
ofce when he decides to change hats
mid-term again, as he did with the
Park and Recreation Commission?
Who will be willing to pick up the
pieces and put them back together
again?
There seem to be more misrepresen-
tations coming out with each candi-
dates night and with each printed
piece.
I support Terri Cook because she is
doing a superb job for the citizens of
Belmont.

Keep a responsible
professional as city clerk
Editor,
In Belmont, when someone has a
question about city government, they
often ask for or are directed to the
city clerk.
In Belmont, Terri Cook gives us
real-time answers. On our time, not at
the whim of some part-time clerk.
In Belmont, we deserve a full-time
clerk for a full-time job, just like
every other city in the county. Dont
vote for chaos, vote for Terri Cook
for city clerk and keep a responsible
and dedicated professional in this
role.
Mike Davis

Support Terry Nagel
Editor,
I support Mayor Terry Nagel for re-
election to the Burlingame City
Council. Terry has been a hard-work-
ing and effective member of the
council.
Terrys consistent hard work and
grass-roots efforts over many years
were successful in applying commu-
nity pressure on PG&E to replace and
improve our electricity supply system
that was very old and unreliable. Her
efforts began before she was elected
to the council and continue today.
Burlingame residents and businesses
now enjoy a reliable supply of elec-
tricity every day without dangerous
power outages. PG&E continues to
regularly report to the city council.
Terry continues to lead the way in
battling high-speed rail and forces
advocates to address our concerns.
Her testimony before the High-Speed
Rail Authority and other state agen-
cies has put Burlingame at the fore-
front in the fight to preserve the inter-
ests of our community.
Terry leads and works cooperative-
ly with her fellow councilmembers on
the pressing financial issues facing
our town. Her conservative approach
to city finances has helped balance
the budget and Terry has the skills
and a stick-to-it approach that allows
her to face problems head on. Painful
decisions and compromises continue
to be made and she delivers meaning-
ful solutions in an even-handed man-
ner while being fair to all concerned.
Terry works well with her fellow
council members. When the chips
were down, all five members pulled
together on opposing high-speed rail
and balancing the budget. This is the
time to keep this seasoned team
working together. Vote for Terry
Nagel on Nov. 8.
John Root
Burlingame
Re-elect Mayor Terry Nagel
Editor,
Burlingame has faced its share of
challenges during the economic down-
turn, but home values have remained
strong and lots of new stores are open-
ing in our city. No one deserves more
credit for guiding Burlingame success-
fully through these tough times than
Mayor Terry Nagel, who has brought
residents, businesses and city employ-
ees together to work on countless com-
munity improvement projects.
I urge all Burlingame voters to join
me in voting to re-elect Terry on Nov.
8 to the Burlingame City Council.
Jeff Londer
Burlingame
Unethical leadership
Editor,
The Millbrae City Council has suspi-
ciously decided that a decision regard-
ing the issue of police services needs
to be resolved before the seating of the
new council.
Although the City Council has
repeatedly avoided the issue and has
continued to kick the bucket down
the road, there seems to be an urgency
to act by Nov. 15. Despite the fact that
up to three members of the existing
council will not be returning after the
Nov. 8 election, it now feels the need
to make a historical decision. Not only
will this decision handcuff the new
members of the council, but their tim-
ing of this decision is also simply
unethical. When the current city coun-
cilmembers were sworn into ofce,
they promised to protect the interests
of the community and citizens. Not to
make a historical decision and run. It is
unethical to leave a mess for your
counterparts to clean up. After all, the
majority of the candidates for the city
council have publicly opposed the out-
sourcing of the police department.

Fact vs. fiction
By Kim Grifn, RN
A
s an elected member and board chair of the Sequoia
Healthcare District, I have in the past focused my
energy on district projects and participating in the
daily business of overseeing grants and programs; however, I
am now compelled to assist fellow board
member Jack Hickey (Op-Ed: The hospi-
tal district that wont die in the Oct. 25
edition of the Daily Journal) in conveying
the true mission of our health care district,
dedicated to improving the health and
quality of life of all district residents. As
Mr. Hickey documented in his recent guest
perspective, we are succeeding in many
ways including feeding the hungry, mak-
ing sure that every child in our district has
access to quality medical services, funding school nurses and
healthy programs for more than 25,000 students, supporting
breast cancer services and tness classes for seniors. While Mr.
Hickey consistently maintains a negative and sarcastic view of
those services; as a practicing health care provider in our com-
munity, I see them as a vital and basic means of keeping the
community healthy and prosperous. I also know that maintain-
ing the health of the community is cost effective to the taxpay-
er at large since it is quite simply cheaper to pay for good
health versus health problems.
Today, Sequoia Healthcare District is involved with more
than 40 community health programs covering almost every
health care need from mental health services to hospice to hot
meals for the homebound. We serve as our areas main advo-
cate for disease prevention and wellness and touch the lives of
more than 30,000 residents a year directly and countless more
indirectly. The district and Board of Directors is composed of
elected community leaders with a great majority of district res-
ident overwhelmingly in favor of our efforts on their behalf.
We take very seriously our stewardship of taxpayer dollars and
keep administrative overhead to a low 6 percent; almost all of
which comes from earnings on our investments as well as the
diligent oversight of our executive director Lee Michelson who
is often and unfairly publicly chastised by Mr. Hickey. We have
a small but outstanding staff of highly educated and experi-
enced professionals who support the boards desire to excel in
all that we do.
With Mr. Hickeys vote, the health care district did indeed
get out of the hospital business but the district also has a
long history of funding healthy community programs and
grants. And while Mr. Hickey likes to refer to our grants and
programs as philanthropy, it should also be understood by the
community that Mr. Hickey has very extreme views regarding
all tax-funded programs believing that public education should
be abolished and the poor will be fed only by those who
choose to feed them. It is little wonder that he has a problem
with providing funding for a healthy schools program or life
saving equipment such as debrillators and CPR devices now
enthusiastically endorsed by our own re departments. What is
most perplexing is Mr. Hickeys statement that we are funding
an insurance program for children with family incomes
approaching ve gures; an indication he is out of touch with
cost of living, rising cost of health insurance and simply the
sheer number of dollars required to survive in the Bay Area.
Ironically, Mr. Hickey currently and consistently during his
tenure on the board has collected his health care benet sup-
plied by Sequoia Healthcare District.
Most unfortunate was Mr. Hickeys criticism of district
Boardmember Arthur Faro, former CEO of Sequoia Hospital,
who provided excellent stewardship of the hospital during
some of the most tumultuous periods of health care. Mr. Faro
is still held in high regard by physicians and nurses alike, an
attribute most understand is admirable and rare in the current
corporate health care culture. One would assume Mr. Hickeys
sarcastic comment regarding white knight Catholic
Healthcare West buying the right to take over (Sequoia) hospi-
tal operations would indicate they did this without board
approval. However, Mr. Hickey wholeheartedly agreed and
voted to transfer ownership of the hospital to CHW.
Clearly, Mr. Hickey would like to see the district dissolved
and he intentionally fails to mention that in this case taxes con-
tinue to be collected and go toward the general tax fund where
our district residents derive no direct benet. Similarly, he
chides the board for our use of public relations or branding
while forgetting the board was mandated by the civil grand
jury to provide adequate information to the public regarding
district programs. The grand jury investigation was initiated by
Mr. Hickey to advance his political dogma and eliminate the
board. And while Mr. Hickey continues to use his time to
undermine the hard work of the other board members, he neg-
lects to participate in any district program, never contributes
his time to any of the community organizations funded by the
district and ridicules the citizens who attend board meetings to
give testimony to the positive outcomes of our work. Mr.
Hickey did get one thing correct in his guest perspective; he is
an elected member of the Sequoia Healthcare District Board.
It is my opinion that he has not provided meaningful work as a
board member and does not fulll his duty as an elected of-
cial.
Kim Grifn, RN, is the chair of the Sequoia Health Care
District Board of Directors.

A quiet day on Wall Street ended
Friday with major stock indexes little
changed after a big rally the day before.
The Dow Jones industrial average closed
out its fth week of gains, its longest
winning streak since January.
The Dow edged up 23 points, or 0.2
percent, to nish at 12,231.11. Stock
indexes jumped more than 3 percent
Thursday after European leaders
unveiled a plan to expand their regional
bailout fund and take other steps to con-
tain the debt crisis in Greece.
Optimism ebbed on Friday as analysts
raised questions about the plan, which
left out many key details about how the
fund would work. European markets
mostly fell, and the euro declined against
the dollar.
Its a kind of sobering-up after a day
of partying, said Jerry Webman, chief
economist with Oppenheimer Funds in
New York. We got back to whats more
of a square position, closer to where we
want to be, and now were going to take
a couple of deep breaths and reassess
what this really means.
There are still plenty of obstacles to
overcome before the crisis is resolved.
One troubling sign: Borrowing costs for
Italy and Spain increased, signaling that
traders remain worried about their
nances.
The S&P 500 rose less than a point to
1,285.09. The Nasdaq composite fell
1.48, or 0.1 percent, to 2,737.15.
In less than four weeks, the Dow has
risen 14.8 percent from its 2011 low,
reached on Oct. 3. The S&P has gained
17 percent. However, the Dow remains
4.5 percent below this years high,
reached on April 29. The S&P is 5.8 per-
cent below its high.
The Dow surged 3.6 percent for the
week; the S&P and Nasdaq each gained
3.8 percent. Both indexes are on pace to
have their best month since January
1987.
Whirlpool Corp. slumped 14 percent,
the most in the S&P index, after the
appliance maker said it would cut 5,000
jobs, citing weak demand and higher
costs for materials. Another household
name, Newell Rubbermaid Inc., soared
11 percent after its adjusted earnings beat
Wall Streets expectations. The maker of
tubs and markers maintained its outlook
for the year.
Cablevision Systems Corp. fell 12.5
percent after reporting that its third-quar-
ter net income dropped sharply and it lost
cable TV subscribers. Hewlett-Packard
Co. rose 3.5 percent after the company
said it would shelve its plan to spin off its
PC business.
Stocks finish mixed
Wall Street
Stocks that moved substantially or traded
heavily Friday on the New York Stock Exchange
and Nasdaq Stock Market:

Big movers
By Barbara Ortutay
NEW YORK For the rst time,
Samsung Electronics Co. shipped more
smartphones in the latest quarter than
tech industry darling Apple Inc. On the
surface, this may look like a big upset in
a world that affords the iPhone maker
adulation and outsized expectations. The
real reason, however, has more to do
with timing and Samsungs variety of
offerings and prices.
Apple sold 17.1 million iPhones in the
third quarter, 3 million fewer than
expected. Samsung, meanwhile, shipped
more than 27 million, according to ana-
lyst estimates.
So what happened? For one, Apples
latest iPhone, the 4S, didnt come out
until the quarter ended, so its sales are
not included in the gure. People held
back on buying older models in anticipa-
tion of the new iPhone, which came out
Oct. 14. Apple said it sold more than 4
million units in its rst weekend on sale,
and that should be reected in the tally
for the current, holiday quarter.
People were waiting, said Francis
Sideco, analyst with the research rm
IHS. We dont see this as a signal that
Apple is all of a sudden losing its edge.
Its their normal thing. But while they
are doing this normal thing, Samsung is
(going strong) and they happen to have a
really good quarter.
Samsungs quarter was helped by
strong sales of its Galaxy phones,
though Sideco said the numbers should-
nt lead to the conclusion that the
Samsung Galaxy beat the Apple iPhone.
What beat it is Samsungs lines,
Sideco said.
Besides the Galaxy line, Samsungs
phones include Conquer, Replenish,
Focus and Indulge. IHS estimates that
Samsung sold about 40 different models
during the third quarter. By comparison,
Apple had just two the 4 and the 3GS.
Samsung, which is based in Seoul,
South Korea, does not disclose the num-
ber of phones it ships. IHS, formerly
known as iSuppli, estimates that
Samsung shipped 27.3 million smart-
phones in the latest quarter. Jae Lee from
Daiwa Securities puts the gure at about
28 million.
Samsung passes Apple in phones
By Chris Kahn
Chevron Corp.s quarterly prot more than
doubled as a jump in petroleum prices made
up for declining production.
Chevron, the second-largest U.S. oil compa-
ny after Exxon Mobil, said Friday that it sold
oil and natural gas at sharply higher prices in
the third quarter. The price of gasoline, diesel,
jet fuel and other fuels also increased from a
year ago, boosting prots at its reneries.
The results mirror those of other oil giants
that reported earlier this week. Despite lower
oil production, Exxon Mobil Corp.s net
income rose 41 percent and prots doubled for
BP and Royal Dutch Shell.
For Chevron, oil and natural gas production
suffered from July to September because of
pipeline troubles in Thailand, tropical storms
in the Gulf of Mexico and equipment issues in
the United Kingdom and Australia.
Third quarter 2011 was an obvious lull in
production for us, Chief Financial Ofcer
Patricia Yarrington said in a conference call
with investors. We do expect to see notably
increased production during the fourth quar-
ter.
Chevron, based in San Ramon, Calif.,
reported net income of $7.83 billion, or $3.92
per share, for the quarter. That compared with
$3.77 billion, or $1.87 per share, a year earli-
er. Revenue rose 26 percent to $61.3 billion.
Results beat expectations of $3.47 per share
but fell short of revenue estimates of $70.4 bil-
lion, according to FactSet.
Shares rose 38 cents to close at $109.64.

ST. LOUIS Pushed to the
brink, the St. Louis Cardinals saved
themselves. A frantic rush to reach
the postseason on the nal day. A
nifty pair of comebacks in the play-
offs. Two desperate rallies in Game
6.
Turns out these Cardinals were
merely gearing up for a gigantic cel-
ebration.
The Cardinals won a remarkable
World Series they werent even sup-
posed to reach, beating the Texas
Rangers 6-2 in Game 7 on Friday
night with another key hit by home-
town star David Freese and six gutty
innings from Chris Carpenter.
A day after an epic Game 6 that
saw them twice within one strike of
elimination before winning 10-9 in
the 11th inning, the Cardinals cap-
tured their 11th World Series crown.
And following a whole fall on the
edge, including a surge from 10 1/2
games down in the wild-card race,
Tony La Russas team didnt dare
mess with Texas, or any more drama
in baseballs first World Series
Game 7 since the Angels beat
Giants in 2002.
Freese, the MVP of the NLCS,
was the Series MVP as well.
This whole ride, this team
deserves this. This organization is
top notch. ... This is denitely a
dream come true, Freese said.
This is why you keep battling. ...
Im so glad to be a part of this.
Freeses two-run double tied it in
the rst and good-luck charm Allen
Craig hit a go-ahead homer in the
third. Picked by La Russa earlier in
the day to start on short rest,
Carpenter and the tireless St. Louis
bullpen closed it out.
I wish everybody in the country
could get to know these guys,
Craig said. Its unbelievable. Im
just glad to be a part of it.
No Rally Squirrel needed on this
night, either. Fireworks and confetti
rang out at Busch Stadium when
Jason Motte retired David Murphy
on a y ball to end it.
The Cardinals were loose from
the very beginning.
We were all in the clubhouse and
we were a loose bunch of guys,
Motte said. We were in there hang-
ing out, dancing around, had music
playing. We were all like thats the
way we win and thats how we play
the best and we came out we were
able to do it today. Its just amaz-
ing.
This marked the ninth straight
time the home team had won Game
7 in the World Series. The wild-card
Cardinals held that advantage over
the AL West champions because the
NL won the All-Star game Texas
could blame that on their own pitch-

Carlmonts Andrew Morrow heads up eld after intercepting a pass during the Scots 26-14
win over Capuchino in a key PAL Lake Division matchup Friday afternoon.
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
As the Carlmont offense ran onto the eld with
11:06 left in the fourth quarter holding a 19-7 lead
over visiting Capuchino, Scots coach Jason Selli
yelled out: Cmon offense! Lets put this game
away!
The offense apparently heard their coach
because the Scots marched 54 yards on 11 plays,
picking up ve rst downs along the way. They
took nearly six minutes off the clock when Joe
Lasala bulled his way into the end zone to put the
Scots up 26-7 with 5:17 to play.
It turned out to be a key drive as Capuchino
scored a 65-yard touchdown on its next play from
scrimmage to cut its decit to 26-14.
But Carlmont recovered the onside kick and ran
out the clock, giving the Scots a 26-14 lead and
the inside track to the Peninsula Athletic Leagues
Lake Division title and the automatic Central
Coast Section berth that goes along with it.
While Carlmonts offense scored four touch-
downs, it was the Scots defense that sealed the
win. Carlmont (4-0 PAL Lake, 4-4 overall) forced
three Capuchino turnovers two interceptions
and a fumble recovery at their own 3 with
Capuchino (2-1, 4-4) threatening to punch it in.
I thought we played a real good game, Selli
said.
While the turnovers translated into just one
Carlmont score, it kept the ball out of the hands of
Capuchino running back Justin Ewing, who had
rushed for 587 yards in his last two games. Friday,
Carlmont held him to just 113 and a touchdown
on 19 carries.
The guy (Ewing) had 48 carries (last week),
Selli said. All week we said we had to limit his
carries. For the most part, we were able to accom-
plish that.
While Ewing went over 100 yards for the fourth
straight game, 66 yards came on one carry in the
rst quarter, a scoring run which, along with the
extra point, gave Capuchino its only lead of the
game, 7-6.
After that, however, the Scots did an excellent
job of bottling up Ewing.
It was a collective defensive effort, said Joe
Lasala, the Scots running back/linebacker. We
let a big run go early, but for the rest of the game,
we shut it down.

In sports, its tough to beat any team three
times in a given season.
So youd understand why Aragon girls ten-
nis coach Ed Schuler appeared a little nervous
in his teams Peninsula Athletic League tour-
nament nal against Carlmont.
Its too close to call, Schuler said, pacing
through the Aragon courts Friday afternoon.
In two previous matchups against the Scots
earlier this season, the Dons had come away
with victories in tightly contested matches
and, Friday afternoon, an automatic berth in
the Central Coast Section playoffs was up for
grabs.
But while accomplishing the trifecta in a
season may be hard, what Schuler and the
Dons had going for them was momentum
after starting the season 2-3, Aragon came into
the nal winners of nine of their last 10 match-
es, including six straight.
We made CCS last year, Schuler said.
And this is a better team. Its a stronger
team.
The Dons showed just how strong they are,
beating the Scots 5-2 to lock up the PALs sec-
ond spot in CCS. With the victory, Aragon
might have locked up a seeded spot, which
would be huge for a team lled up young tal-
ent.
But as expected, the Scots didnt let the
Dons cruise to that berth. Tied at two, it took a
win by the Aragon No. 1 doubles and then a
three-set victory by Victoria Sun in the No. 3
singles match to calm the nerves of Schuler
and his Dons.
Sun, who said she battled the u earlier this
week, defeated Christine Tataru 6-3, 3-6, 6-2.
It didnt really affect me, Sun said when
asked if there was any pressure for her to close
out the victory for the Dons. I just knew I had
to give it my all for my teammates, no matter
what. I wasnt going to give up and had to do
my best for my team.
Sun actually had a comfortable lead in her
match when the days crucial matchup ended.
In the No. 1 doubles, Amy Jiang and Christina
Hsu bounced back from a 1-6 loss in their rst
Dons lock
up CCS spot

Any football coach will tell you that a game
hinges on four or ve plays throughout the
game. Come up with the majority of them and
a team has a good chance of winning.
Friday night, Menlo-Atherton made more
big plays than Sacred Heart Prep and it trans-
lated to a 27-14 Bears victory.
A win next week over Terra Nova would
give M-A the Bay Division championship and
the Peninsula Athletic Leagues top seed
going into the Central Coast Section playoffs.
Both teams played really hard, said M-A
coach Sione Taufoou.
The big-play score was tied at halftime 2-2,
but Menlo-Atherton (4-0 PAL Bay, 6-2 over-
all) shut out Sacred Heart Prep (2-2, 6-2) in
the big-play department in the second half.
The Gators led 14-10 at halftime, but a 10-
point third quarter propelled the Bears to the
victory.
After punting on its rst possession of the
third quarter, the Bears returned the favor,
forcing the Gators to punt.
The Gators never got the punt off as James
ODonnell came bursting through the line and
blocked the punt, giving the Bears excellent
eld position at the Gators 12-yard line.
The SHP defense held strong, however, and
M-A was limited to a Sam Falkenhagen 30-
yard eld goal that pulled the Bears to 14-13
with 4:45 left in the third quarter.
After stopping the Gators on fourth down at
the M-A 41, the Bears quickly scored to take
the lead for good. Quarterback Willy Fonua
hooked up with Evan Perkins for a 12-yard
gain and three plays later, Cameron Moody
took a pitch and bolted down the right sideline
for a 31-yard score and a 20-14 lead the Bears
would never relinquish.
M-A picked up an insurance touchdown in
the nal minute. As the Bears were trying to
run out the clock, Moody ran a basic dive into
the line emerged on the other side and
sprinted for another 31-yard score.
Moody nished the game with a game-high
117 yards and two touchdowns on 13 carries.
As a team, the Bears rushed for 291 yards.
Fonua threw for 73 yards on 5 of 12 passing.
The Gators nished with 352 yards of total
offense. Daver Reoglu led the way on the
ground, rushing for 86 yards and a touchdown
on 20 carries. Receiver Patrick Bruni had
another big game, catching three passes for
114 yards, but his production and the
Gators chances at winning suffered a huge
blow when starting quarterback Jack Larson
was knocked from the game midway through
the second quarter as he was hit on a pass
attempt.
It didnt take long for M-A to come up with
the rst big play of the game when Dustin
Nascimento picked off Larson on the third
play from scrimmage, to give the Bears a rst
down at the Gators 37.
Much like they would do in the second half,
the Gators defense stood tall and forced the
Bears to settle for a 27-yard Falkenhagen eld
goal.
It was a short-lived lead, however, as the
Gators came right back to take a 7-3 lead on
their next possession. Starting from their own
20, the Gators needed only six plays to go the
distance, the key being a 72-yard pass-and-run
from Larson to Bruni, who was chased down
by Taylor Mashack just short of the goal line.
Three plays later, Larson snuck into the end
zone to put the Gators ahead.
M-A answered right back. The Bears drove
92 yards on 11 plays the big play a 36-yard
Perkins run on double reverse. Moody capped
the drive with a 2-yard score on fourth-and-
goal.
The Gators came right back, driving 80
yards on eight plays. Larson completed three
passes on the drive for 56 yards and Reoglu
capped it with a 2-yard plunge for a 14-10
lead at halftime.
Im glad we got out of here with a W,
Taufoou said.
Bellarmine 21, Serra 14
Padres running back Erich Wilson scored a
pair of 36-yard touchdowns in the third quar-
ter to erase a 13-0 halftime decit.
But the Bells recovered a fumble and scored
the go-ahead touchdown midway through the
fourth quarter to come away with the win.
Wilson rushed for over 200 yards for the
third time this season.

SAN FRANCISCO Brad
Seely left the Cleveland Browns and
brought Blake Costanzo along with
him to the Bay Area. Now, these
two have something pretty special
going on special teams for San
Francisco.
Back in Ohio, Seelys old unit is
struggling. The Browns miss the
highly regarded coach who has
become known as The Professor
for both his scholarly looks with
those glasses, and for his teaching
methods. Costanzo left quite a void,
too.
Special teams is likely to play a
key role Sunday, when the Browns
(3-3) face a tough task against Seely
and the NFC West-leading 49ers at
Candlestick Park. San Francisco is
5-1 for the rst time since 1998 and
fresh off its bye week, still riding
high from a 25-19 victory over the
previously unbeaten Lions two
weeks ago.
Yes, Jim Harbaugh worked on his
handshake after a postgame ap
with Detroits Jim Schwartz, albeit
just high-fiving his 3-year-old
daughter, Addison, last week while
getting away for a little family time.
Shes got the high-ve down,
Harbaugh said of the toddler.
Cleveland is trying to improve off
a 6-3 win over Seattle last Sunday in
which the Browns had the ball for
nearly 43 minutes and managed a
pair of eld goals by Phil Dawson,
both from beyond 50 yards.
They hope their second trip out
West in three weeks goes better than
the first. The Oakland Raiders
returned a kickoff 101 yards for a
touchdown and faked a eld goal
for a score in a 24-17 win on Oct.
16.
Against the Seahawks, the
Browns gave up a punt return for a
touchdown before it was called back
on penalty. Needless to say,
Cleveland coach Pat Shurmur
focused on special teams this week.
Harbaugh, meanwhile, is working
to make sure his players keep their
edge.
The 49ers suddenly face a game
they very much should win.
Harbaughs Niners have been
thriving and surprising so far as one
of the NFLs underdogs, rallying
from behind to win their rst three
road games.
Were in a good position, line-
backer Patrick Willis said. As we
talked about in our team meeting,
right now is when we can separate
ourselves from other teams. We
have to continue to press forward
and not let up and keep it going.
Seely has been a big reason for
the success so far.
During his two years with
Cleveland, he developed impressive
kick return and coverage units. Hes
doing the same thing for the 49ers,
who have succeeded in all facets on
special teams. Theres kicker David
Akers with 13 eld goals and three
from 50-plus yards, punter Andy
Lee with his 50.5-yard average and
return man Ted Ginn Jr., who ran
back a kickoff and a punt for touch-
downs in the season opener against
Seattle.
The Professor is getting pro-
duction out of Costanzo and the rest
of his pupils as well.
Cleveland return man Josh Cribbs
isnt surprised.
Hes very smart. He brought a lot
of fundamental, basic stuff, just
playing the game the way its sup-
posed to be played, Cribbs said. A
lot of guys get on special teams and
they dont know how valuable spe-
cial teams is to the football team.
Brad being an assistant head coach
as well, special teams is everything.
You came off of offense and defense
before you came off of special
teams just instilling that within
the guys and how important it was
to the football team. His attention to
detail was just on point.
The Browns have all new
schemes under new coach Chris
Tabor.
San Francisco would like to keep
Cribbs from a repeat of his last per-
formance against the 49ers.
The Pro Bowl returner ran a punt
back 76 yards for a touchdown
against Lee in a 20-7 Browns victo-
ry four years ago. He knows Seely
will have his group ready to guard
against that happening this time.
49ers getting the most out of special teams
By Greg Beacham
LOS ANGELES Stanfords
Andrew Luck will nish just ahead
of Southern
Ca l i f o r n i a s
Matt Barkley in
just about every
football metric
that counts if
both quarter-
backs head to
the NFL next
year. The Pac-
12 standings,
head-to-head victories, Heisman
Trophy voting, pro draft boards
Barkley realizes hell probably
always be looking up at Luck.
Barkley wont feel second-best if
his 20th-ranked Trojans can figure
out some way Saturday night to
stop the juggernaut thats been
built around his Northern
California counterpart.
Two of the nations top quarter-
backs face each other for the third
time in their college careers when
No. 4 Stanford (7-0, 5-0 Pac-12)
looks to extend its 15-game win-
ning streak with a third straight
victory at the Coliseum over USC
(6-1, 3-1).
Luck and Barkley have only a
passing acquaintance, seeing each
other a few times off the gridiron at
media events, so theres hardly a
personal rivalry. Whats personal to
Barkley is the feeling he gets when
he thinks about Stanfords two vic-
tories over the Trojans during his
tenure the first in a historic
blowout in 2009, the second on a
field goal as time expired last sea-
son.
I dont like the thought of losing
or being embarrassed like that in
my head, Barkley said. I guess
its kind of a pride thing, wanting
to prepare so well that that doesnt
happen, so I dont have to go
through that, dont have to face a
loss like that. I think it picks up the
intensity when were preparing for
a game if thats in my mind.
Luck left last seasons victory
over USC with more relief than
excitement after engineering a last-
minute drive to the decisive field
goal. That victory was the start of
Stanfords current winning streak,
and the Cardinal havent even been
in a tight spot since last November,
winning a record 10 straight games
by at least 25 points.
Hes a great guy, great football
player, Luck said of Barkley. Its
fun to watch him play. I really do
enjoy watching him play on TV.
Except for this week, obviously.
The role reversal in USCs oldest
rivalry between the Pac-12s two
private California schools still
seems strange to the Trojans fans
who are expected to sell out the
Coliseum for this meeting. In fact,
anybody looking to track
Stanfords rise as an improbable
college football power can find
major landmarks in the Cardinals
victories in the last two trips to
USCs historic home.

er, C.J. Wilson, who took the loss in July.
The Rangers, meanwhile, will spend the
whole winter wondering how it all got away.
Texas might dwell on it forever, in fact, at
least until Nolan Ryan & Co. can reverse a
World Series slide that started with last years
ve-game wipeout against San Francisco.
Texas had not lost consecutive games since
last August. These two defeats at Busch
Stadium cost manager Ron Washington and
the Rangers a chance to win their rst title in
the franchises 51-year history.
A year full of inspiring rallies and epic col-
lapses was encapsulated in Game 6. Freese
was the star, with a tying triple in the ninth
and a winning home run in the 11th. His two
RBIs in the clincher gave him a postseason
record 21.
The Cardinals won their rst championship
since 2006, and gave La Russa his third World
Series title. They got there by beating
Philadelphia in the rst round of the NL play-
offs, capped by Carpenter outdueling Roy
Halladay 1-0 in the deciding Game 5, and
then topping Milwaukee in the NL champi-
onship series.
By the time Yadier Molina drew a bases-
loaded walk from starter Matt Harrison and
Rafael Furcal was hit by a pitch from Wilson
in relief, the crowd began to sense a champi-
onship was near.
The Cardinals improved to 8-3 in Game 7s
of the Series, more wins than any other club.
Yet fans here know their history well, and
were aware this game could go either way
Dizzy Dean and the Gas House Gang won 11-
0 in 1934, but Whitey Herzog and his
Cardinals lost 11-0 in 1985.
On this evening, though, all the stars
aligned.
Starting in place of injured Matt Holliday,
Craig hit his third homer of the Series and
made a leaping catch at the top of the left eld
wall. Molina made another strong throw to
nail a stray runner. And Carpenter steeled
himself to pitch into the seventh, every bit an
ace.
Albert Pujols went 0 for 2, walked and was
hit by a pitch in what could have been his last
game with the Cardinals. Many think the
soon-to-be free agent will remain in St. Louis.
Either way, he provided an image that will
certainly last a long time in this town. As he
scored on Freeses double, Pujols thrust both
arms high in the air as he reached the plate.
Besides, Pujols already had done enough
damage. His three-homer job in Game 3 was
the signature performance of his career and
perhaps the greatest hitting show in postsea-
son history.
Dismissed by some as a dull Series even
before it began because it lacked the big-mar-
ket glamour teams, it got better inning by
inning.
Craig hit a solo home run in the third, an
opposite eld y to right that carried into the
Cardinals bullpen and got their relievers danc-
ing. The super-sub put St. Louis ahead 3-2
with his third homer of the Series. He was in
the lineup only because Holliday sprained his
right wrist on a pickoff play a night earlier and
was replaced on the roster.
By then, the largest crowd at 6-year-old
Busch Stadium was buzzing. The fans seemed
a bit drained much earlier, maybe worn out
from the previous night.
They grew hush in the rst when Hamilton
and Michael Young hit consecutive RBI dou-
bles. Texas might have gotten more, but Ian
Kinsler strayed too far off rst base and was
trapped by Molinas rocket throw.
Freese changed the mood in a hurry as St.
Louis tied it in the bottom half. Pujols and
Lance Berkman drew two-out walks and
pitching coach Mike Maddux trotted to the
mound while Freese stepped in to a standing
ovation.
Freese rewarded his family and a ballpark
full of new friends by lining a full-count
oater to the wall in left center for a two-run
double. Pujols raised both arms as he crossed
the plate another frozen moment, courtesy
of Freese. Harrison was in trouble, and Wilson
began warming up after only 23 pitches.
Carpenter wasnt sharp at the outset, either.
All over the strike zone, he started seven of
the rst 10 batters with balls. Pitching coach
Dave Duncan made a visit in the second to
check on the tall righty, lingering for a few
extra words.

SERIES
set against Tarilyn Won and Paulette Varelas
and took the nal two sets 6-1, 6-2. The win
was the turning point of the day as it came
with the teams tied at two matches apiece.
And considering that Jiang and Hsu had yet to
lose a match in league play this season, per-
haps Won and Varelas had ideas of an upset
with their rst set win.
I dont think our minds were in the right
place, Jiang said of her teams rst set loss. I
dont know why we lost, but the good thing is,
we dont let our losses get to us. We just want-
ed to make sure we nished strong.
In the rst set, we were really careless,
Hsu said. We made too many unforced errors
and just needed to focus.
They got a bit of a wake-up call, Schuler
said. But they stepped up when they needed
to.
The No. 1 doubles win was huge for the
Dons as it came after Parcesa Darnfofshi and
Jackie Gabovich defeated Emily Yip and
Jamie Ahn 3-6, 6-3, 6-3 to get the Scots level.
The afternoon began with Kaede Ishikawa
continuing her impressive run through the
season and barely breaking a sweat against
Cori Sidell in a 6-0, 6-0, No. 1 singles victo-
ry.
I felt pretty good about my game,
Ishikawa said after her win. I think I did bet-
ter than the last time I played her. I was more
consistent. I was more patient hitting the ball.
Last time, I tried to end the points too soon.
This time, I let the rallies go on longer.
After Ishikawas win, Carlmont responded
when Laura Roston and Lisa Chin won the
No. 2 doubles match 6-2, 6-3.
But Aragon regained the lead with Melissa
Ma. The No. 4 singles player defeated Tereza
Dvorak 6-3, 6-2.
You have to learn how to nish, Schuler
said following Suns clinching victory. Ive
told the girls, you have to keep your foot on
the pedal. Weve nished the season really
good (but) you can always get better.

Carlmont racked up 316 yards of offense,

Running back Marquise Harris also had a
big game. Although he only rushed for 65
yards on 21 carries, he scored on runs of 1 and
5 yards, and added an 80-yard catch-and-run
that gave Carlmont a 6-0 lead on just the third

After Capuchino tied it on Ewings 66-yard

The Scots needed only six plays to score on
its next drive. The Carlmont defense forced a

DETROIT The San Jose Sharks still have
a slight edge over the Detroit Red Wings.
Joe Thornton scored twice and Antti Niemi
made 30 saves in San Joses 4-2 win over Detroit
on Friday night.
San Jose has eliminated Detroit in the second
round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs the past two
seasons. It was a seven-game set last spring in
which the Red Wings rallied from a 3-0 series
decit to force a decisive Game 7. Six of the
seven games in that were decided by one goal
and only Thorntons empty-netter in the nal
minute prevented Fridays contest from being
another one-goal affair.
Every game against them seems to be a one-
goal game, Thornton said. These are two
good, competitive teams, and its become a pret-
ty good rivalry the last couple of years.
Patrick Marleau had a goal and an assist and
Ryane Clowe also scored for San Jose, which
won its fourth straight.
Its always a great game when these two
teams come together, Marleau said. Theyve
been a very good organization, an elite team, for
a long time, so you know
youd better come prepared
to play. Getting a win
against them does feel good,
because you know its
always an elite game.
Henrik Zetterberg, and
Tomas Holmstrom scored
for Detroit, which has lost
three in a row Nicklas
Lidstrom had two assists
and Jimmy Howard made 26 saves.
It was a good game. Sometimes you can fool
yourself in these games though. The opposition
gets you prepared for these games. You dont
have to get yourself prepared, Red Wings coach
Mike Babcock said. But being a pro is getting
prepared every night so you have energy to play
every night. So thats a challenge for us tomor-
row (at Minnesota).
Thorntons breakaway goal with 1:42 left in
the second period snapped a 2-2 tie. The San
Jose star beat Howard between the pads for his
second goal after taking a pass from Joe
Pavelski.
They really started to pinch a lot as a team
and we were fortunate enough to get the puck in
behind them and away we went, San Jose
coach Todd McLellan said. It was nice to see
Jumbo shoot it, he had nobody to pass to. But he
did look behind him. He worried me.
Marleau gave San Jose a 2-1 lead 7:57 into the
second when he chipped a shot over Howards
shoulder from the slot after beating former
Sharks defenseman Ian White to a loose puck,
which actually deected off Whites sick.
I was right in front of him, the puck was right
there, I took a swipe at it, it bounced over my
stick, White said. I tried to get a stick on the
shot and I tipped it right upstairs.
White also got caught up ice on Thorntons
goal.
Holmtroms power-play goal with 5:16 left in
the second period tied the score at 2. Pavel
Datsyuks shot from about 15-feet inside the
blue line deected in off Holmstrom for his rst
goal.
Zetterberg opened the scoring with 7:40 left in
the rst period. He put in the carom of
Lidstroms intentionally-wide shot, off the
boards behind the net, from the bottom of the
right circle. It was Zetterbergs second goal.
An apparent goal by Detroit was waved off
with 1:28 remaining in the opening when refer-
ee Brian Pochmara ruled incidental contact with
Niemi by Tomas Holmstrom. No penalty was a
called.
Yeah, I didnt like the call, but that doesnt
matter if I like it or not, Babcock said.
Clowe tied the score at 1 with a power-play
goal 2:10 into middle period. His third goal
came from the bottom of the left circle after a set
up by Martin Havlat.
Detroit defenseman Brad Stuart made a save
with his upper chest in the crease on Clowes
shot at an empty Detroit net during a San Jose
power play a little less than ve minutes into the
game.
NOTES: White signed with Detroit as a free
agent during the offseason. ... Clowes goal was
the Sharks rst road power-play goal this sea-
son on their 14th attempt.

By Beth Harris
LOS ANGELES California mens bas-
ketball coach Mike Montgomery said Friday
he was diagnosed with bladder cancer and had
surgery last week that has left him cancer-free.
Montgomery made the surprise announce-
ment at Pac-12 media day in Los Angeles.
The school announced
Montgomerys surgery on
Oct. 19, but didnt disclose
any details about it.
I went from having
high-grade bladder cancer
to being totally cancer-free
at this juncture, he said.
The 64-year-old coach
resisted going into detail
about his health crisis, but
he said he was diagnosed
last month while a doctor
was checking on diverticulitis, a condition in
which the inner lining of the intestine
becomes inamed or infected.
There was something that wasnt supposed
to be in there, Montgomery said. Three
months ago he wouldnt have found it. Six
months from now, you would have been done.
If youve got an ache or a pain, get checked.
Through a series of extremely fortuitous
events, we were able to get in, get the little
polyp, tumor, whatever you want to call it, and
get it out. Everything since that time has been
all clear.
Montgomery said he will return full-time to
running the 24th-ranked Golden Bears pro-
gram on Monday much to the players cha-
grin.
Senior guard Jorge Gutierrez said the team
feels more connected to Montgomery since
learning of his condition.
He opened up a little bit more, so that helps
us to relate to him more, he said.
Montgomery said hes lost weight and is
focused on regaining his strength, but has no
physical limitations. He was relatively blithe
in telling the media about the experience and
only briey turned serious on the subject.
Its scary, he said. You go from being rel-
atively on top of your game to no longer being
in charge. Im extremely fortunate it went the
way it did. Probably adds a little perspective
to your life.
Southern California coach Kevin ONeill
was aware of Montgomerys condition.
Its great to see him healthy. When he was
doing surgery, he was cracking jokes the
whole time, he said. Everybodys prayers
are with Mike. Not a more respected coach in
the whole country, not a guy thats done a bet-
ter job at so many levels in the whole country.
Montgomery enters his fourth season at Cal,
which was picked to nish second to UCLA in
the newly realigned Pac-12. He previously
coached for 18 years at Stanford, leading the
Cardinal to the 1998 Final Four and being
named league coach of the year four times. He
left Stanford to coach the NBAs Golden State
Warriors for two seasons before returning to
the college ranks, where he has 611 career
wins, putting him in the top-25 among active
coaches.

NEW YORK NBA Commissioner David
Stern canceled all NBA games through Nov.
30 on Friday after NBA labor negotiations
broke down for the second time in a week.
Its not practical, possible or prudent to
have a full season now, Stern said.
After two days of making some progress on
salary cap issues, the two sides brought the
revenue split back into the discussion and got
stuck on both.
Owners are insistent on a 50-50 split of rev-
enues, while players last formally proposed
they get 52.5 percent, leaving them about
$100 million apart annually. Players were
guaranteed 57 percent in the previous collec-
tive bargaining agreement.
We made a lot of concessions, but unfortu-
nately at this time its not enough, and were
not prepared or unable at this time to move
any further, union executive director Billy
Hunter said.
Stern said the NBA owners were willing
to go to 50 percent. But he said Hunter was
unwilling to go a penny below 52, that he
had been getting many calls from agents and
then closed up his book and walked out of the
room.
Hunter said the league initially moved its
target down to 47 percent during Fridays six-
hour session then returned to its previous pro-
posal of 50 percent of revenues.
Derek (Fisher) and I made it clear that we
could not take the 50-50 deal to our member-
ship. Not with all the concessions that we
granted, Hunter said. We said we got to
have some dollars.
But with more games canceled, the losses
will begin to mount.
Were going to have to recalculate how bad
the damage is, Stern said. The next offer
will reect the extraordinary losses that are
piling up now.
Just a day earlier, Stern had said he would
consider it a failure if the two sides didnt
reach a deal in the next few days and vowed
they would take one heck of a shot to get a
deal.
No further talks have been scheduled.
Union president Fisher said it was difcult
to say why talks broke down, or when they
would start up again.
Stern cancels more games

The Shrek movies may not even exist as far
were concerned in Puss in Boots, which is ne,
because they just kept getting worse; last
years Shrek Forever After, in 3-D, felt
especially at. But the franchise reboots anew
here, if youll pardon the pun, with great energy, cre-
ativity and aplomb.
This spin-off is actually a prequel, providing the
origin story of the diminutive, swashbuckling
kitty voiced with great charisma, as always, by
Antonio Banderas. The role has been an ideal show-
case for Banderas to have a little fun with his suave,
sophisticated image; he revels in Puss playfulness and
faux bravado as well as his genuine courage and heart.
At the lms start, Puss is an outlaw in his own
small, Spanish hometown. Flashbacks take us to his
childhood at an orphanage, where he was best
friends with a brainy, ambitious Humpty Dumpty
(Zach Galianakis). Together, the two dreamed
of stealing the magic beans, climbing the
beanstalk and getting rich off some golden
eggs. Now, that crime has become Humptys
obsession; he tries to enlist Puss as the brawn
of the operation, which would allow both to
enjoy some redemption.
Humptys partner in this caper is the
dangerous master thief Kitty
Softpaws, voiced with slinky
seduction by Banderas frequent co-
star, Salma Hayek. Its a clever col-
laboration that doesnt feel like
stunt casting, as is the case with many
animated lms; theyre so good together
after so long, it just makes sense.
But since Puss is a lover as much as
hes a ghter, you know hell nd a
way to win her over and there is def-
initely a Pepe LePew vibe to the way
they irt with each other. A dance-off
between the two characters early on,
when Kitty is still disguised and Puss is
unaware shes a woman, is both exquisitely
choreographed and hilariously funny.
The Puss in Boots character eventually felt
like the best part of the Shrek movies, but a
little of him goes a long way. Giving him an
entire movie of his own would seem like a
stretch, and really, he has trouble sustaining his
shtick for the lms 90-minute running time. But
for quick, lively, family friendly entertainment,
Puss in Boots works just ne, even in 3-D, which
is integrated thoughtfully into the narrative and
doesnt just feel like a gimmick. Through chases,

Journalism Boot Camp
hosted by the San
Francisco Peninsula Press
Club in partnership with
the College of San Mateo
Journalism Department on
Friday, Oct. 21.
The boot camp is an
opportunity for local high
school journalism stu-
dents to learn more about what being a jour-
nalist entails through classes taught by local
journalists.
Some journalism students who attended the
boot camp sincerely enjoyed the seminars
and the event.
It was very informative and fun, said
rst-time journalism student Virginia
OCallahan.
The young journalists had the opportunity
to attend seminar styled sessions on page
design, PhotoShop, headline writing, televi-
sion news and making the transition to col-
lege media among other things.
Carly Bertolozzi of the Carlmont
Highlander said she liked having a variety
of sessions to chose from and that the class-
es offered were very diverse.
Students not only had the opportunity to
attend all of these seminars, but also got to
learn from journalists, photogra-
phers and editors from local
newspapers.
The news photography class
was really good because it gave
us more information about how to get certain
shots, said Gianna Dimick, when asked
which of the classes she really enjoyed and
learned the most from.
They had some really good sessions like
the headline writing one. He [Dave Price,

swordfights, dance sequences and even a
ight into the clouds, the 3-D consistently
provides a feeling of propulsive motion. (The
glasses are still clunky and uncomfortable, but
thats another conversation for another time.)
Puss looks so soft and uffy and tactile in
his little, leather boots, his jaunty, feathered
hat and his shiny sword, youll want to reach
out and pet him especially when hes a tiny
kitten working those big, green eyes for max-
imum manipulative effect. But just as impres-
sive is the way the lm from director Chris
Miller (Shrek the Third) gives detailed
expression and personality to a talking egg.
Merely the idea that Humpty Dumpty might
be a criminal mastermind is good for a laugh,
but Galianakis infuses the character with a
healthy mix of neediness and megalomania.
He gets so into the character, you might not
even realize its him under that shell until the
credits roll.
The same is true of Jack and Jill, who are
depicted as greedy and fearsome and are
voiced with complexity (and perfect Southern
twangs, naturally) by Billy Bob Thornton and
Amy Sedaris. Their relationship reects the
best of what the Shrek movies have offered
over the years: an unexpected twist on the
fairy tales you know and love.
Thankfully theres a lot more of that kind of
inspired writing and not nearly so many
pop-culture references and Hollywood in-
jokes this time around. Puss likes to dance,
but he never does the Macarena.
Puss in Boots, a DreamWorks Animation
release, is rated PG for some adventure action
and mild rude humor. Running time: 90 min-
utes. Three stars
BOOTS
By Christy Lemire
LOS ANGELES Halloweens coming,
but none of the manufactured spooks and
ghouls of the holiday can compare with your
earliest memories of being frightened at the
movies. Those images that you saw on screen
can stick with you for the rest of your life.
And when youre a little kid, your imagina-
tion can and does take you anywhere,
especially to some of the darker places youd
rather avoid.
Everyones list is different, but here are the
top ve movies that scared the crap out of me
when I was a little girl:
The Shining (1980):
I have no idea what my parents were think-
ing letting me see this movie and read the
Stephen King novel that inspired it but it
remains, in my opinion, the scariest movie
ever made. A lot of that has to do with Stanley
Kubricks bold, startling visuals. A lot of that
has to do with the unwanted psychic images
that ash into young Dannys mind youre
a kid, maybe that could happen to you, too.
And then, of course, theres the notion of your
father, the man you trust, losing his mind and
turning on you and your mother. It didnt help
that my dad looked vaguely like Jack
Nicholson back then, and hed stand in the
doorway maniacally snarling, Heres
Daddy! just to mess with me. Yeah. Good
times.
The Exorcist (1973):
When youre young, before skepticism sets
in and youre not quite questioning authority
just yet, the threat of hell and the devil are
very real and very pressing. And so the possi-
bility of being possessed by the devil when
youre a little girl is just petrifying. Part of
what made The Exorcist so frightening
back then was the buzz that surrounded it, the
fact that everyone was frightened by it. It cre-
ated such a mystique, and deservedly so. But
the idea of that kind of loss of control, of
being a young, vulnerable creature whos
manipulated for pure evil and theres noth-
ing you can do to prevent it well that can
traumatize an innocent mind.
The Amityville Horror (1979):
Again, this is one of those what-were-my-
parents-thinking? movies. I just remember
seeing it on television, probably on ON-TV,
with the little decoder box that you had to
switch on to receive programming. We did-
nt have a basement we lived in a one-
story, mid-century modern tract house in the
San Fernando Valley so we didnt have a
hidden well that was the passage to hell. But
just the idea of it! All those tortured souls still
haunting the place. And the blood dripping
down the walls and the growling voice of the
house, urging its new inhabitants: Get out!
Get out! Once again, my dad would run
around our own house mimicking that voice.
But Im totally over it now, which is great.
Fantasia (1940):
Im sorry, the Night on Bald Mountain
sequence is still totally disturbing. I dont care
how old you are. The menacing demon
Chernabog on high on that dark night, sum-
moning souls from their graves in a frenzied
swirl, the skeletons inging themselves into a
ery pit. And that Mussorgsky he didnt
mess around. Also theres the whole
Sorcerers Apprentice segment with Mickey
Mouse, which is supposed to be lively and
whimsical, but the idea of the mops and buck-
ets thinking for themselves and wreaking
havoc always freaked me out. Still does.
The Wizard of Oz (1939):
We all have fond memories of this movie
from childhood, and anyone who knows me
or has seen the Movies That Made Us
Critics episode of the show I co-host, Ebert
Presents At the Movies knows that this
was an early inuence on me and my lifelong
love of lm. But man, those ying monkeys
were scary. I have vivid memories of hiding
behind the coffee table, cowering at my moth-
ers feet, every time they came on. And they
came on a lot, because we had this videotaped
on Beta! and we watched it all the time.
Sure, the Wicked Witch of the West was
frightening, but even then it was obvious how
cartoonish she was. The flying monkeys,
though you could imagine that really hap-
pening.

A amboyant, funny, sexy per-
formance from Rhys Ifans livens up
Anonymous, which is often a
heavy-handed and needlessly com-
plicated exploration of the theory
that maybe William Shakespeare
didnt really write all those plays
and sonnets after all.
Instead, the lm suggests, Ifans
Edward de Vere, the Earl of Oxford,
was the true author but he had to
disguise his identity because his
writing so often provided pointed
criticism of royal scandals and
foibles, and because the mere
thought of involvement with the
theater seemed so indecent. Its a
provocative, intellectual idea, the
implications of which turn increas-
ingly soapy and irrelevant as the
lm progresses.
Roland Emmerich works from his
meatiest and most sophisticated
script yet, the work of John Orloff
then again, we are talking about
the director of Independence Day,
The Day After Tomorrow and
2012. And all the rich period
detail is in place, alongside the kind
of big, sweeping aerial shots youd
expect from the maker of block-
busters.
But the script jumps back and
forth in time so quickly and without
rhyme or reason, it convolutes the
narrative rather than propelling it
forward. You will have to stop sev-
eral times to remind yourself who is
who; you may even need a ow
chart to keep track of all the sons,
and sons of sons. At the same time,
Anonymous is too often on-the-
nose, quoting Shakespeares most
famous words: the To be or not to
be speech from Hamlet, or the
Now is the winter of our discon-
tent soliloquy that opens Richard
III. Perhaps that seemed necessary
to make this type of specic, aca-
demic material accessible to the
widest possible audience, but it also
seems too obvious.
Still, Anonymous has its
moments. In a bit of stunt casting
that pays off beautifully, Vanessa
Redgrave and her daughter, Joely
Richardson, both play Queen
Elizabeth I at different times, and
both infuse the gure with vibrancy
and quick wit. (The younger version
of Edward, Jamie Campbell Bower,
doesnt blend nearly so seamlessly;
his features are too soft and pretty
for the man he will become.) And it
is sort of an amusing thought that
the actual person whose name was
William Shakespeare, an actor who
takes credit for the work played by
an unapologetically brash Rafe
Spall, was a drunk, lascivious, illit-
erate lout.
Edward takes in these perform-
ances with a detached demeanor,
but internally hes seething with
conict with the thrill of seeing
his words brought to life, as well as
the frustration of not being able to
bask in the adulation. Anyone who
comes into contact with him knows
how devastatingly verbal he can be,
though, in both seduction and con-
frontation. Its a thrilling, surprising
performance from Ifans, whos
probably best known for comedy.
As the initial whiff of scandal
eventually gives way to great, repet-
itive blubbering about the brilliance
and signicance of Shakespeares
works, Anonymous ultimately
feels like much ado about nothing.
The debate may keep scholars busy,
but the actual authorship doesnt
really matter. The words themselves
do, and theyve withstood four cen-
turies; we quote them all the time
and may not even realize it.
Anonymous, a Columbia
Pictures release, is rated PG-13 for
some violence and sexual content.
Running time: 129 minutes. Two
and a half stars out of four.

FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. Military
museums allow visitors to experience
the rough and tumble jerk of a parachute
jump, the barked orders of an Army drill
sergeant or the segregated training
endured by the rst African-Americans
to enter the Marine Corps.
Whether you are a hardened military
veteran or one whos never worn a uni-
form, several military museums in the
Carolinas offer extensive lessons in mil-
itary service as the Nov. 11 Veterans Day
draws near.
In Fayetteville, N.C., the soaring
Airborne and Special Operations
Museum attracts between 120,000 to
175,000 visitors every year and tells the
story of how Americas military devel-
oped the strategy of dropping fully-
armed soldiers into battle from the skies.
A 15-foot sculpture of the paratrooper
dubbed Iron Mike stands guard at its
glass-and-girder front entry, which
evokes both the 250-foot jump towers
that paratroopers use to train and the
wingspan of the C-47 aircraft that
dropped soldiers onto battlefields in
World War II.
Located just minutes off Interstate 95
in downtown Fayetteville, N.C., the
museum is holding a weeklong celebra-
tion in advance of Veterans Day, says
Paul Galloway, executive director of the
foundation that supported construction
of the $25 million building.
Well be hopping and popping. We
do a salute to veterans every year,
Galloway said. A week of lms about
the Army and paratroopers will be held
the week prior to the holiday, as well as
other events to honor military men and
women, Galloway said.
As soon as you enter the museum, you
spot a World War II-era paratrooper in
combat gear oating out of the sky under
a yellow 28-foot-wide parachute.
Behind him, another model drops from
the heavens, a modern Army Ranger
buoyed by a light green, honeycombed
parachute used by U.S. Special Forces.
A wild ride can be had in the muse-
ums 24-seat platform motion simulator,
recreating the bumps and jumps of para-
chute drops and rides in military vehi-
cles.
To highlight some of the major events
of wartime paratroopers, visitors rst
stroll through a recreated village in
Normandy. Recordings from the June
1944 Allied invasion to liberate France
from Nazi Germany put visitors in the
heat of the battle, with rockets and bul-
lets screeching by. Overhead, a C-47
Skytrain aircraft hovers with a U.S.
Army paratrooper poised to jump out an
open door.
Walkways are papered with still pho-
tos, videos and murals that show the his-
tory behind U.S. forces that evolved into
the famed Special Operations units, des-
ignated to take on unconventional war-
fare and special missions in foreign
lands.
Displays from the war in the Pacic,
the Korean War and Cold War are
shown. In one display, soldiers jump
from a UH-1 Huey helicopter into a
jungle battle raging in Vietnam. Other
displays detail the history of U.S.
involvement in the Dominican Republic,
Panama and Grenada.
Americas conicts in the Middle East
are recalled with models of camouaged
soldiers crouching in desert hideouts in
Iraq. Others depict U.S. Special
Operations forces meeting for tea with
Afghan villagers or medical centers
where military medics tend to local chil-
dren.
Military museums offer thrills

Museum is not located on a military installation,

entrance gates if visitors do not have military
identication.Visitors may be asked to exit the
vehicle, open doors, trunks and engine hoods as

A master in
her element
By Keith Kreitman
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Anyone who loves great theatrical performances and not
even, necessarily, great opera should not I repeat, should not
miss Monica Cappuccinis stunning portrayal of Maria
Callas, probably, the most celebrated opera singer of the last
half of the 20th century, in Terrence McNallys Master Class
at the Hillbarn Theatre. Hers is, unquestionably, the best indi-
vidual performance in my 25 years of reviewing on the
Peninsula.
When I heard Cappuccini would have the role of Maria
Callas, I could think of no Peninsula actress more appropriate
for that super-demanding role that has her constantly in dia-
logue on stage. She becomes Maria Callas as I remember her
from when I attended her rst American performance in 1954,
in her signature role of Norma, for the newly formed Lyric
Opera of Chicago. Aside from the remarkable ow and the
richly varying timbre of her voice, her dramatic performance,
alone, was mesmerizing to the extent that, for the rst time in
viewing a theatrical performance, I was glued in wonderment
to my cheap seat in the upper balcony of the Chicago Civic
Opera House for at least 10 minutes after the last curtain.
One needs to have seen Callas in person to grasp how much
she dominated the stage from her first entrance. And,
Cappuccini has t into that role better than any other actress I
have reviewed in that role before. Of course, much is due to
how much that brilliant playwright, Terrance McNally, has
Opera legend Maria Callas (played by Monica Cappuccini)
reects in the triumphs and tragedies of her career in Hillbarn
Theatres Master Class, performing now through Nov. 6 at
Hillbarn Theatre.

DAVID MAMET ON RACE. A
powerful businessman is accused
of assaulting a young black woman
in a hotel room. Does it matter
what really happened, or is the only
question whether high-powered
attorneys can fashion facts into an
effective defense? Race, David
Mamets sharp-edged look at the
manipulation of legal truths with-
out moral consequences, reveals
what might be hidden by the attor-
ney-client privilege. 90 minutes
without an intermission. Directed
by Irene Lewis. Through Nov. 13.
SET FACT:
Scenic Designer Chris Barreca
and Lighting Designer Rui Rita
provide a wonderfully true-to-life
law firm conference room set, com-
plete with 370 linear feet of law
books.
TICKETS:
Tickets (starting at $10) can be
purchased from the A.C.T. box
office at 405 Geary St., by phone at
(415) 749-2228 or online through
www.act-sf.org.
STAGE DIRECTIONS:
The Geary Theater is at 415
Geary St., just off Union Square in
the heart of downtown San
Francisco. Parking one block away
at the Mason/OFarrell Garage,
325 Mason St. The theater is a rel-
atively level four-block walk from
the BART Powell Street Station
(Market Street).
OH, AND DID YOU KNOW?:
A.C.T. audiences can delve into
issues raised by the play by attend-
ing Experts Talk Back, where legal
and cultural specialists lead discus-
sions about provocative topics per-
colating throughout the production.
Thursday, Nov. 3, following the 8
p.m. performance: Mary
McNamara, a white collar criminal
defense lawyer who was named
one of the top 50 women lawyers in
Northern California, leads a dis-
cussion moderated by Patrick S.
Thompson, a partner at Goodwin
Procter. Thursday, Nov. 10, follow-
ing the 8 p.m. performance: Wilda
L. White, executive director of the
Thelton E. Henderson Center for
Social Justice at UC Berkeley
School of Law, and Jennifer
Madden, deputy district attorney in
Alameda County, lead a discussion
moderated by Patrick S.
Thompson, a partner at Goodwin
Procter. Admission to Experts Talk
Back events is free with a ticket to
Race; the discussions take place in
Freds Columbia Room on the
lower level of the American
Conservatory Theater.
AN ASIDE:
A.C.T. Artistic Director Carey
Perloff said, Race says things that
few people dare to say about racial
and gender politics in America, and
we know it will trigger fascinating
debates within our audience. These
new postshow discussions are a
great way to continue the conversa-
tions this provocative play will
spark.

WEEKEND JOURNAL
24
The Daily Post] had examples of different
headlines and he was really engaging, said
Alex Porter from the Carlmont Highlander.
Guest speaker Stanford University profes-
sor R.B. Brenner delivered the keynote
address about how much the media is chang-
ing now and how it will benet young jour-
nalist pursuing careers in journalism and the
media. He also talked about Peninsula Press,
a news website covering Santa Clara and San
Mateo counties, which he helped Stanford
students in the graduate journalism program
launch.
He was really knowledgeable, said stu-
dent Erin Greig, and the website that he
helped Stanford students work on was really
cool.
For some students, the best part of the boot
camp was simply being able to interact with
the other high school journalism students by
both giving and receiving feedback on their
school newspapers.
I really liked that we could help out other
school newspapers by telling them about our
journalism class while also getting feedback
on our newspapers, said Dimick.
Networking with the other schools was
really cool because we got to hear about
what challenges other school papers have
faced and how they overcame them, said
Greig, and we also got to share about our
challenges and give each other feedback.
At the end of the seminar, a panel made up
students from different high school newspa-
pers shared how their newspaper staff gener-
ated great story ideas.
I really liked the ending panel because it
gave insight on how each school was doing,
said rst-time journalism student Ian
Madden.
Jenna Chambers is a senior at Carlmont High
School. Student News appears in the weekend edi-
tion. You can email Student News at news@smdai-

STUDENT
captured for her all the pain of Callas early
life as an ugly duckling, her miserable rela-
tionship in her love for the megalomaniacal
Aristotle Onassis, one of the worlds richest
men, her jealous rivals, her abrasive tempera-
ment and caustic wit and yet, strangely, her
irresistible appeal as a human being.
The play was inspired by a series of master
classes for young singers Callas presented at
the Juilliard School in New York City in 1971.
On a bare stage with only a pianist,
Emmanuel (Manny) Weinstock (Daniel
Lockert), she greets one by one what she calls
her victims, whom she, seemingly brutal-
izes even to tears but is actually striving for
them to look for the truth and power beyond
the written notes of the great composers.
The extra bonus in this production is those
in the roles of the vocal students: Marcelle
Dronkers, Gabriel Cohen and Susanna
Jiminez, all three soaring vocalists in their
own rights and good actors, to boot.
There is a wonderful blending into the
action of recorded sounds from Callas per-
formances as backgrounds for her several
soliloquies about her own life to the audience,
enhanced by some creative lighting designed
by Matthew Royce.
There needs, also, to be recognition for
Executive Producing Director Lee Foster, who
has not only raised the standards of Hillbarn
Theatre to rival any other in the Bay Area but,
also, for reaching out to other arts groups for
enlarging the theaters productions. In this case
Master Class is a co-production with the
Musical Arts Department of Notre Dame de
Namur University, chaired by Debra Lambert.
This is a not-to-be-missed theatrical experi-
ence.

If you go
By Derrik J. Lang
It was somewhere around the sixth rooftop
that I leapt from during a rollicking foot chase
above the streets of Yemen that I realized
Uncharted 3: Drakes Deception (Sony,
$59.99 for PlayStation 3) is one of the best
games Ive played this year and maybe
ever.
Its not because the gameplay is notably
innovative or the story is particularly com-
pelling. Theyre not. Uncharted 3 is just
unapologetically fun. The developers at
Naughty Dog have stuck closely to the for-
mula that garnered them awards, critical
praise and game sales for Uncharted 2:
Among Thieves by creating another interac-
tive action experience that rivals anything
Hollywood has churned out in the past four
years.
Uncharted 3 nds treasure hunter Nathan
Drake, who claims to be a descendent of Sir
Francis Drake, on a quest to uncover a mythi-
cal city known as the Atlantis of the Sands
thats apparently buried somewhere in the
Middle East. His journey is more personal
this time, providing some much needed char-
acter development for Drake and his cohorts.
Nolan North again gives a pitch-perfect per-
formance as Drake, and so do sidekicks
Richard McGonagle as con man Victor
Sully Sullivan, Emily Rose as journalist
Elena Fisher, Claudia Black as grifter Chloe
Frazer and Graham McTavish as henchman
Charlie Cutter. Rosalind Ayres does a noble
Helen Mirren impersonation as villainess
Katherine Marlowe.
The games exotic environments serve as
the other, more gorgeous, stars of Uncharted
3. A burning chateau in France, a pirated
cruise ship in the Arabian Sea and the bustling
streets in Yemen are a few of the exhilarating
playgrounds where Drake can seamlessly
switch among climbing, shooting, brawling
and puzzle solving during his whirlwind
adventure.
Yes, the plot is too similar to the previous
Uncharted titles how many secret cities
can one man uncover? But the pace is so
rapid, and the action is peppered with so
much humor and heart, that it hardly matters,
especially in the games more exciting later
stages, some of which are surprisingly mind-
bending and gut-wrenching for such a main-
stream game.
Uncharted 3 doesnt offer players any
more freedom than its predecessor did two
years ago, which is just ne by me because
thats what the developers intended. I found
the strict linear nature of Uncharted 3 com-
forting after toying with such seemingly
open-ended new releases as Rage, Dark
Souls and Batman: Arkham City.
Uncharted 3 another interactive treasure
Uncharted 3has a masterful blend of thrilling gameplay, cinematic storytelling and luscious
graphics.

OPENS LATE NOVEMBER OPENS THURS. OCT. 27
By Sabina Niksic
SARAJEVO, Bosnia-
Herzegovina A man armed with
hand grenades and an automatic
weapon opened re outside the U.S.
Embassy in Bosnia Friday in what
authorities called a terrorist attack.
A policeman and the gunman were
wounded, but the embassy said
none of its employees was hurt.
Sarajevo Mayor Alija Behmen
said the gunman got off a tram
with a Kalashnikov and started
shooting at the American Embassy.
Witnesses told Bosnian television
that the man urged pedestrians to
move away, saying he was targeting
only the embassy.
He wore a beard and was dressed
in an outt with short pants that
reveal his ankles typical for fol-
lowers of the conservative Wahhabi
branch of Islam.
One police ofcer guarding the
building was wounded before police
surrounded the gunman. After a 30-
minute standoff, the sound of a sin-
gle shot echoed and AP video
showed the shooter slump to the
ground.
Police arrested the wounded man
who one of Bosnias three presi-
dents said is a foreigner and took
him away in an ambulance as pedes-
trians cowered behind buildings and
vehicles. Hospital spokeswoman
Biljana Jandric told the Associated
Press the gunman had a minor
wound to his leg, and would spend
the night at the hospital before
being released into police custody.
State Prosecutor Dubravko
Campara identied the shooter as
Mevlid Jasarevic, from Novi Pazar,
the administrative capital of the
southern Serbian region of Sandzak,
who was tried in Austria for robbery
in 2005.
Campara said Jasarevic had
crossed the Serbian border into
Bosnia Friday morning. He said
Jasarevic had two hand grenades
with him when he was arrested and
is also currently under investigation
by Serbian police, but did not detail
why.
Serbian Interior Minister Ivica
Dacic conrmed his identity and
said he is 23 years old. Bosnian TV
said Jasarevic is a Wahhabi follow-
er.
The Wahhabis are an extremely
conservative branch which is rooted
in Saudi Arabia and linked to reli-
gious militants in parts of
Afghanistan and Pakistan.
Terrorist attack outside U.S. Embassy in Bosnia
By Cassandra Vinograd
LONDON If Will and Kates
first child is a girl, its now clear
that shell probably become queen
one day and not even getting a
little brother can mess that up.
The Commonwealth countries
agreed Friday to change centuries-
old rules of succession that put
sons on the throne ahead of any
older sisters. So that hypothetical
daughter of Prince William and
Kate Middleton now known as
Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge
would have a prime place in
history: the first princess to beat
out any younger brothers and
accede to the throne.
Had these rules been in place in
the 1500s, Henry VIII would have
just been a rather large historical
footnote.
The move is a baby step: Before
taking effect, the changes still
must be approved by the legisla-
tures of the 16 nations where
Queen Elizabeth II is head of state.
Still, the agreement, which was
reached at a meeting of
Commonwealth nations in Perth,
Australia, represents a triumph
over practices now considered out-
dated and sexist in much of the
world.
Nations including Sweden,
Belgium, the Netherlands and
Norway have already taken similar
steps.
Will and Kates lavish April
wedding renewed a decades-long
debate over succession.
Middleton told a well-wisher in
Canada this summer that she hopes
to start a family. William has said
the same.
Once their honeymoon was over,
baby talk started, adding urgency
to the dialogue, although officials
insist that talk of a pregnancy is
premature.
Historians think its about time.
You shouldnt muck around too
much with the constitution, but its
a good idea to change this at this
time, said royal expert Hugo
Vickers. Its much better to have
it sorted out before any babies
come along.
The new rules would only apply
to future heirs and would have no
impact on the current line of suc-
cession.
William is second in line to the
throne after his father, Prince
Charles, who is the queens first-
born child. Charles sister, Anne, is
lower in the line of succession than
her younger brothers Andrew and
Edward by virtue of their male
gender.
Rules change gives royal girls equal shot at crown
Syrian security forces
fire on rallies, killing 30
BEIRUT Syrian security forces
opened re Friday on protesters and
hunted them down in house-to-
house raids, killing about 30 people
in the deadliest day in weeks in the
countrys 7-month-old uprising,
activists said.
The popular revolt against Syrian
President Bashar Assads regime has
proved remarkably resilient, with
protests erupting every week despite
the near-certainty the government
will respond with bullets and tear
gas.
The U.N. estimates the regime
crackdown on the protests has killed
3,000 people since March.

For Miya, the transition from a technically
trained gymnast to a performer embodying a
character was difcult. Even his path to becom-
ing such a performer was unique. Most of the
fellow performers continued their pursuits
throughout their life. Miya took a break and
returned to gymnastics. In 2009, he submitted a
video in hopes of getting an audition for Cirque
du Soleil. He liked the idea of traveling and per-
forming.
After being asked to join the company, Miya,
along with the rest of the cast, spent eight
months in Montreal perfecting the show, run-
ning through the intricate moves which require
the performers to really trust one another.
Building that trust and getting into character
were two of the biggest challenges for Miya.
Bringing the emotion was a challenge, but one
for which Miya seemed prepared.
Its simple in focus, he said of the show.
Theres lots of feeling and emotion.
Totem tells the story of evolution from the
beginning of life and into space, explained
Company Manager Jeff Lunt.
Just days before the show was to open, Lunt
sat in a living room set up near a practice and
gym area for the performers. The tent setup is
like a miniature city for the employees with
everything set up in the same way at each loca-
tion, Lunt said. That way, performers can be at
home and focus on preparing for the show.
Through the music, acrobatics and amazing
skills, performers take the audience on a jour-
ney.
There is something everyone can relate to in
this show, he said, adding Cirque du Soleil
offers a special experience thats hard to under-
stand without seeing it.
We get to share our family with your fami-
ly, he added. Its a fun day at the circus.
Because at the end of the day, thats what we
are.
Totem runs through early December.
Shows are held at 8 p.m. Tuesday through
Thursday; 4 p.m. and 8 p.m. Friday and
Saturday; and 1 p.m. and 5 p.m. Sunday. All
shows are held in the blue and yellow tent next
to AT&T Park in San Francisco. Tickets start at
$58. For more information, or to purchase tick-
ets, visit www.cirquedusoleil.com/totem.

said Chris Odell, co-founder of Mz. Shirliz
Transitional Living along with Shirley Lamarr.
The group is sprucing up the area because its
the right thing to do and to teach the felons it
works with that it is the right thing, Odell said.
On the ip side, Odell said the community
will see that these guys are trying to give back
and change lives instead of taking from others
Community skepticism is an earned chal-
lenge which they are up to, Odell said.
Odell is an example. He met Lamarr 15 years
ago as a member of Choices, the in-jail pro-
gram she has run for two decades. Odell
cleaned up, graduated from Delancey Street
and went to work in nance and real estate
before joining Lamarr at the jail. They worked
on transitional homes but those only housed 12
people a year. Wanting to impact thousands,
they created Mz. Shirliz Transitional Living in
August 2009 and moved into a 9,000-square-
foot that formerly housed the Salvation Army.
The center offers a computer lab, vocational
training and work opportunities like carpentry
and moving services. There are about 350
active members, many alumni from Choices.
Odell put the word out to the pool, along with
some on the other side of the law who support
them, and is keeping his ngers crossed for a
strong turnout Saturday morning.
The effort, called Felons giving back and
keeping it clean, will begin with the small
radius and be held likely on a monthly basis,
Odell said.
As it gains momentum, he hopes to expand it
out through the city and maybe even other
areas. The center is a nonprot so any dona-
tions or payments collected for jobs are tax-
free. Mz. Shirliz Transitional is otherwise
unfunded, Odell said.
Those interested in learning more about the
program or wanting to donate can contact the
center at 650-261-1075.

ScOrPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Its nice of you to do a
favor for someone, but make sure you dont do so in
a manner that leaves the person feeling tremendous-
ly obligated to you. Let him or her know that there
are no strings attached.
SaGIttarIuS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- An acquaintance
who isnt particularly popular with your peer group
could use some reassurance. Let this person know
that you, at least, can be counted on as a friend.
caPrIcOrN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You have greater
fortitude than you may realize. You may fnd out just
how much backbone you have, if you should feel
threatened or challenged in any way.
aQuarIuS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Usually its not wise
to offer unsolicited advice, but someone to whom you
have a close attachment might be able to proft from
one of your past experiences. If so, speak up.
PIScES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- If you believe some-
thing youre doing is having a negative effect on your
fnances, by all means make corrections. Its up to
you to protect your interests.
arIES (March 21-April 19) -- Because youre not
likely to dodge diffcult jobs, people or situations,
your chances for achieving your goals will be height-
ened considerably. Youll take things as they come.
tauruS (April 20-May 20) -- Assistants and
sidekicks will be watching every move you make in
hopes of picking up some of your secrets to success.
Do a good job, because they will follow what you do
to the letter.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Someone youd least
suspect could step up and be the one wholl help
you accomplish something you cant do on your own.
This newfound alliance will prove to be of beneft to
both parties.
caNcEr (June 21-July 22) -- Meet your assignments
head-on, even those that arent to your liking. Once
you get into them, youll fnd they arent as diffcult or
distasteful as you thought.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Be satisfed with small
gains instead of trying to make one huge, impressive
killing. When all the little stuff is put together, itll
have a way of adding up into being something quite
substantial.
VIrGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Most things in general
will be favorable for you, but your best possibili-
ties for gain are likely to come from commercial or
fnancial involvements. What you accomplish will be
impressive.
LIBra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Of course its important
for you to view developments realistically, but not to
the point of taking things so seriously that you lose
your sense of perspective. Smile frequently.

bank, it hasnt been a tough choice.
Consumers have hit a level of saturation in
their savings, said Marshal Cohen, chief
industry analyst with market research rm
The NPD Group. The propensity is to
spend.
The annual yield on six-month certicates
of deposit was unchanged this week at 0.23
percent, according to Bankrate.com. Five
years ago, it was 3.62 percent. If you put your
money in the six-month CD today, youd
make about enough to buy a burger.
Paul Ashworth, chief U.S. economist at
Capital Economics, said the trend could mean
more spending by Americans. But it will take
robust personal spending along with
improvement in the depressed housing market
to get the economy going again.
Ashworth said his rm is not too concerned
with the decline in savings because it partly
represents a sharp decline in debt servicing
costs. In other words, low interest rates mean
its cheaper to borrow money.
The Fed began cutting interest rates four
years ago at the start of the nancial crisis.
The rate cuts took the federal funds rate, the
key for short-term interest rates, from 5.25
percent down to near zero, where they have
stayed since December 2008.
The central bank has said it will keep rates
super-low into 2013 as long as the economy
stays weak. While that means low returns for
savers, it is designed to encourage people and
businesses to borrow more.
Many borrowers tend to be young families
who are spending most of their income any-
way. The loss in interest income tends to hit
older households, which are saving for retire-
ment and counting more on bonds and other
xed-income securities.
Consumer spending is closely watched
because it accounts for about 70 percent of
economic activity. A sharp rise in spending
over the summer helped the overall economy
grow in July, August and September at the
fastest pace in a year.
Still, the economy would have to grow
twice as fast to put a dent in the unemploy-
ment rate, which has stayed near 9 percent
since the recession ofcially ended more than
two years ago.
At the same time savings accounts and other
xed-income investments are paying less, the
cost of food and gas has gone up.
Elizabeth Smith, who works in teacher edu-
cation at the University of Arkansas, has cut
her monthly contribution to her retirement
savings in half to meet necessities.
Every time I go to the store, butter, cheese
and milk are more expensive, she said. Child
care costs for her two children have also risen
this year.
On the other hand, Smith has beneted from
lower interest rates. She and her husband re-
nanced the mortgage on her home a year ago,
which lowered their monthly payments by
$200, freeing up more cash.
The Feds policies are designed to reward
spending and effectively punish savers, said
Eric Green, chief U.S. economist at TD
Securities.
MONEY
By Kim Gamel
TRIPOLI, Libya Abdullah Ahmed Belal
had all but given up on the sprawling seaside
villa his family lost to squatters decades ago
because of a provision in Moammar Gadhas
Green Book saying anybody who lives in the
house should own it.
Belal, a 48-year-old naval ofcer, is one of
many Libyans who want their properties back
now that the hated dictator is gone.
Mustafa Abdul-Jalil, head of the governing
National Transitional Council, has called for
such disputes to be settled legally. Belal is
willing to be patient, but others have taken
matters into their own hands a sign of the
post-revolutionary ghts that threaten to rattle
Libya as it transitions from decades of auto-
cratic rule to what its interim leaders say will
be democracy.
Armed men have tried to force families out
at gunpoint, and neighbors have been caught
in the crossre as they tried to intervene. Even
original owners willing to wait have spray
painted their names on the concrete walls sur-
rounding the buildings.
The NTC keeps asking people to postpone
trying to get their rights back until a commit-
tee is formed and it can be done legally, said
Abdullah Belal, a Tripoli contract lawyer and
a nephew of Abdullah Ahmed Belal. They
say youve waited 42 years, you can wait
another month or two, but some people dont
want to wait.
He described one instance in which the
original owners came back with machine guns
to force a Palestinian family from their home
in Souk al-Jumaa, giving them no time to pack
more than the belongings they could gather
that night.
We desperately need to get our properties
and rights back, but at the same time we dont
want anybody to be hurt because in the end
the only one to blame is Moammar Gadha,
the lawyer said.
The question of legality is murky in a coun-
try that was governed by the whims of one
man for nearly 42 years.
The Green Book, the slain leaders quirky
political manifesto that dictated the lives of
Libyans, allowed people to occupy empty
houses that had been purchased as rentals or
vacated by landlords traveling abroad. High
rises and other commercial buildings also
were taken, often with no compensation.
It may be hard now to prove original own-
ership because the building holding property
records burned down in 1982 under mysteri-
ous circumstances, and those who initially
conscated the property often resold it with
new documents.
In some cases, gunmen laying claim to
homes were not in fact the original owners.
In 1977, a colonel in Gadhas army is said
to have seized a house on a side street in
Tripolis afuent Hay al-Andalous neighbor-
hood.
On Sept. 8, nearly 35 years later, a man
armed with a machine gun showed up around
midnight to reclaim what he said was his.
Witnesses told the Associated Press that
neighbors rushed to the scene and tried to
calm him down, saying he should wait until
the issue could be resolved in a court of law,
but the man was drunk and refused to listen.
His friend got out of the car and they both
opened re.
Libyans want confiscated property back
NASA launches latest
Earth-observing satellite
VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE
After a years-long delay, an Earth-observing
satellite blasted into space early Friday on a
dual mission to improve weather forecasts and
monitor climate change.
A Delta 2 rocket carrying the NASA satellite
lifted off shortly before 3 a.m. from the central
California coast. The satellite separated from
the rocket about an hour after launching,
unfurled its solar panels and headed toward an
orbit 500 miles above Earth.
NASA invited a small group of Twitter fol-
lowers to watch the pre-dawn launch from
Vandenberg Air Force Base, where weather
conditions were ideal. Skies were clear and
there was little wind.
It was a thrill to watch the bird go up this
morning in the beautiful clear night sky with
the stars out there, Mary Glackin of the
National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration said at a post-launch news con-
ference.
Need a speaker? President
Obama may be available
WASHINGTON Looking for a big-name
speaker?
Now may be the time to send President
Barack Obama an invitation, especially if your
group represents a key political constituency.
Obama is making the rounds of awards din-
ners and black-tie galas this fall, donning a
tuxedo or dark suit and heading to ballrooms
to speak to organizations representing blacks,
Hispanics, Jews, women and gays. This week-
end, he adds Italian-Americans to that list.
With the 2012 campaign ramping up, the
presidents turns as headline speaker have
clear political undertones. Obama needs the
well-connected, politically active leaders of
these groups to help him motivate their mem-
bers, raise money for his re-election effort and
get people to show up to vote in next years
election.
