Depending on who you talk to, the
California High-Speed Rail Authoritys
updated business plan is either solid or a
waste of time.
Some call it positive and others call it a
boondoggle.
The business plan update, officially
released yesterday, shows the cost for the
project to be about $65 billion, nearly
double the gure in the initial 2008
business plan.
Accounting for ination, however,
the $65 billion cost estimate in
todays dollars will really be about
$99 billion in 2033 dollars, the year
the project is expected to be fully com-
pleted. In 2008, the rail authority estimated
the cost of the project to be about $35 billion
in Proposition 1A bond language.
The 2008 business plan has
been repeatedly called flawed
by detractors who said rider-
ship estimates and costs were
inaccurate.
But the new $99 billion price
tag has some lawmakers in the
state saying whoa.
Californias top Republican, state Sen.
Bob Dutton, is ready to ditch the project
based on yesterdays update and commit
high-speed rail money to local transportation
projects across the state.
Even before the rst shovel of dirt has
turned, the cost estimates have nearly tripled.
The HSR is a boondoggle that needs to be
derailed, Dutton, R-Rancho Cucamonga,
wrote in a statement.
Gov. Jerry Brown, however, praised high-

Trying to be nancially proactive, county ofcials yesterday
brainstormed ways of spurring economic development to help
chip away at a structural budget decit and
encourage business overall.
After lobbing around individual ideas,
the Board of Supervisors agreed to priori-
tize working with neighboring Redwood
City, look at sports-related opportunities
and consider more business links with all
the county airports.
The options came up yesterday afternoon
as the Board of Supervisors and County
Manager David Boesch met to prioritize
economic development options. Better utilization of county-
owned property and facilities also rated high on the list as did
more efforts at San Francisco International Airport.

Meat plant and Genentech
settle ammonia leak lawsuit
By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Genentech led a lawsuit against its South San Francisco
neighbor Columbus Manufacturing citing harm from a 2009
incident when the food company released 200 pounds of
ammonia into the air, closing down the area for hours and

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
Three teenage alleged Norteo
gangmembers accused of attacking a
rival with sticks, bricks and a pellet
gun because he was scheduled to tes-
tify in court about a previous assault
were sentenced to time served for
felony assault.
Alvaro J. Davila, 17, and Rudy
Perez, 18, and Jorge Prieto Quevedo,
16, each pleaded no contest to one
count of felony assault and admitted
a gang enhancement.
In return, each was immediately
given 300 days in county jail with
credit for the same amount earned
while in custody in lieu of $250,000
bail.
They now will spend three years
on supervised probation. They are
also barred from associating with
other gangmembers and must regis-
ter as gangmembers.
The teens were originally charged
as adults with dissuading a witness,
threatening a witness, resisting
arrest, four counts of assault with a
deadly weapon and acting to benefit
a street gang.
The three were arrested April 15 in
a San Mateo apartment where police
said they heard them discussing the
attack before they entered the unit.
According to authorities, the vic-
tim was a Sureo gangmember who
had been attacked in the past and was
scheduled to appear in court about
one of the incidents. The defendants
are not the gangmembers who
assaulted the victim previously,
according to prosecutors.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Some
progress. Still needs improvement.
The nations report card on math
and reading shows fourth- and
eighth-graders scoring their best ever
in math and eighth graders making
some progress in reading. But the
results released Tuesday are a stark
reminder of just how far the nations
school kids are from achieving the
No Child Left Behind laws goal that
every child in America be procient
in math and reading by 2014.
Just a little more than one-third of
the students were procient or higher
in reading. In math, 40 percent of the
fourth-graders and 35 percent of the
eighth-graders had reached that level.
The gures were from the National
Assessment of Educational Progress.
The modest increases in NAEP
scores are reason for concern as
much as optimism, said Education
Secretary Arne Duncan. Its clear
that achievement is not accelerating
fast enough for our nations children
to compete in the knowledge econo-
my of the 21st century.
There were few noticeable changes
in the achievement gap between
white and black students from 2009.
While the gap is smaller than in the
early 1990s, the new test results
reect a 25-point difference between
white and black fourth- and eighth-
graders in reading and fourth-graders
in math.
However, Hispanic students in
eighth grade made some small strides
to narrow the gap with white students
in both math and reading. In reading,
the gap was 22 points in 2011 com-
pared to 26 in 1992 and 24 in 2009.
The reading test asked students to
read passages and recall details or
interpret them. In math, students
were asked to answer questions about
topics such as geometry, algebra and
number properties and measurement.
The Education Departments
National Center for Education
Statistics administers the test. On a
500-point scale, both fourth- and
eighth-graders scored on average one
point higher in math in 2011 than in
2009 and more than 20 points higher
than in 1990, when students were
rst tested in math. In reading, the
score for fourth-graders was
unchanged from two years ago and
four points higher than in 1992, when
that test was rst administered.
Eighth-graders in reading scored on
average one point higher in 2011 than
in 2009 and ve points higher than in
1992.
The results come as states are
clamoring for waivers to No Child
Left Behind, the 2002 law that was
heralded as a way to primarily help
low-income and minority children.
President Barack Obama in
September said that since Congress
had failed to rewrite the law, he was
allowing states that meet certain
requirements to get around it. Forty
states, in addition to the District of
Columbia and Puerto Rico, have said
they intend to seek waivers, accord-
ing to the Education Department.
Meanwhile, there has been some
progress in both the House and
Senate in rewriting the law, although
its unclear whether Congress will act
this year.
Bruce Fuller, a professor of educa-
tion and public policy at the
University of California, Berkeley,
said the tests indicate students
showed more growth in reading dur-
ing the 1990s when states had more
control over school accountability
efforts, and that is likely to stoke the
debate over whether states should
again have more control.
This was the rst year that test
administrators separated Asian stu-
dents from a broader category that
previously included Native
Hawaiian/Pacic Islander students.
In both reading and math, the average
scores for Asians were higher than
for other ethnic or racial groups.
Nearly two-thirds of Asian fourth-
graders and nearly 60 percent of
Asian eighth-graders posted scores at
or above procient in math.
Students show slight improvement in math

Armed man in sunglasses
robs downtown business
Police in South San Francisco are
looking for an armed robber who
stole more than $10,000 from a
local business last week.
Ofcers responded to a report of a
robbery at a business on Grand
Avenue at about 11:55 a.m.
Thursday.
A store clerk told police that a
man had come into the business and
asked an employee to hand him a
bag containing cash from behind the
counter, police said.
The clerk apparently thought the
man was joking, and did not give
him any money until the suspect
pulled out a chrome revolver and
asked for the cash again, police
said.
The clerk then handed over a bag
containing $10,500, police said. The
suspect took the money and ran east
on Baden Avenue toward Airport
Boulevard.
He is described as a white or
Hispanic man with a slender build
between 20 and 25 years old and
around 5 feet 9 inches tall. He was
wearing a gray hoodie, a black T-
shirt, blue jeans, black athletic
shoes, dark sunglasses and latex
gloves.
Anyone who might have informa-
tion about the crime is asked to call
the South San Francisco Police
Department at (650) 877-8900.

pipeline construction
to begin next week
Work is scheduled to begin this
week on the installation of a new
ve-foot diameter drinking water
pipeline across Crestview Drive at
Edgewood Road in San Mateo
County. Due to the large equipment
needed for this major pipeline
installation, trafc controls will be
in place during work hours and
motorists may experience traffic
delays in both directions of
Crestview Drive, near Edgewood
Par, according to ofcials from the
San Francisco Public Utilities
Commission.
Work will take place weekdays
between 7:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m.
and Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
During these work hours, the trafc
ow on Crestview Drive will be
reduced to one lane in each direc-
tion. Work at this location is expect-
ed to continue for up to four weeks,
according to the PUC.
This construction is part of the
SFPUC Water System Improvement
Program, a $4.6 billion bond-fund-
ed program to seismically upgrade
and repair the regional water sys-
tems aging pipelines, tunnels and
dams. This Bay Division Peninsula
project includes a nine-mile, ve-
foot diameter welded steel pipeline
seismically designed to withstand
an earthquake, and will allow the
SFPUC to take existing, older
pipelines out of service for mainte-
nance and repair, according to the
PUC.

PALO ALTO Twin 2-year-old
girls who were joined at the chest
and abdomen were separated
Tuesday during a lengthy, complex
procedure at Stanford Universitys
childrens hospital.
The operation that gave sisters
Angelina and Angelica Sabuco their
independence took more than nine
hours and a team of more than 40
people, including doctors, nurses
and other personnel.
By mid-afternoon, the girls had
moved to their own operating rooms
for the second phase of surgery
reconstructing the area where they
were connected. Two hours later,
they were moved to the intensive
care unit, each with a scar stretching
from her chest to her belly.
This is a dream come true, their
mother, Ginady Sabuco, said
through tears to reporters after the
surgery was complete. Words can-
not express how the family feels.
Dr. Gary Hartman, the lead sur-
geon on the case, said the procedure
went smoothly.
The long term prognosis is that
we should have a happy, healthy set
of girls. We dont see any barrier to
a full recovery, Hartman said.
Born in the Philippines, Angelina
and Angelica moved to the United
States with their mother last year.

CHICAGO Whether sipping
beer, wine or whiskey, women who
drink just three alcoholic beverages
a week face slightly higher chances
for developing breast cancer com-
pared with teetotalers, a study of
more than 100,000 U.S. nurses
found.
The link between alcohol and
breast cancer isnt new, but most
previous studies found no increased
risk for breast cancer among light
drinkers. The new research provides
compelling evidence because it fol-
lowed so many women for up to
almost 30 years, experts said.
Still, the study only shows an
association between alcohol and
breast cancer; it doesnt prove that
drinking causes the disease. There
could be some other reason light
drinkers appeared to be at higher
risk maybe they were less active
than nondrinkers or had unhealthy
diets, said Dr. Susan Love, a breast
cancer expert and author who runs a
Santa Monica, Calif.-based research
foundation.
Women in the study who aver-
aged three to six drinks a week
throughout the study had a 15
percent higher chance of devel-
oping breast cancer than non-
drinkers. That risk means, for
example, that among women in
their 50s, who on average face
a 2.38 percent risk for breast
cancer, light drinking
would result in 4 addition-
al cases of breast cancer
per 1,000 women
Risks increased by 10 per-
cent for every 10 grams of
alcohol consumed daily. Thats
equal to a little less than one 12-
ounce bottle of beer, a 4-ounce glass
of wine or a shot of whiskey. The
increasingly elevated risks were a
little higher than seen in other
research. It made no difference
whether the women drank liquor,
beer and wine.
Given research suggesting that
drinking moderate amounts of
alcohol including red wine
may protect against heart dis-
ease, deciding whether to
avoid alcohol is a personal
choice that should be based
on a womans other risks for
breast cancer and heart dis-
ease, the researchers said.
The study appears in
Wednesdays Journal of
the American Medical
Association. It began
in 1980, asking
healthy, mostly white
nurses aged 30 to 55 to ll
out periodic questionnaires about
lifestyle and risk factors for cancer
and heart disease.
Follow-up ended in 2008 or when
women died or were diagnosed with
cancer.
Light drinking linked to breast cancer

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. Antwain
Black was facing a few more years in
Leavenworth for dealing crack. But
on Tuesday, he returned home to
Illinois, a free man.
Black, 36, was among the rst of
potentially thousands of inmates who
are being released early from federal
prison because of an easing of the
harsh penalties for crack that were
enacted in the 1980s, when the drug
was a terrifying new phenomenon in
Americas cities.
I did more than enough time,
Black said outside his familys
Springeld, Ill., home, where family
and friends had gathered to celebrate
over dinner. I feel like I can win this
time. Im a better man today than I
was then.
The 1980s-era federal laws pun-
ished crack-related crimes much
more severely than those involving
powdered cocaine a practice criti-
cized as racially discriminatory
because most of those convicted of
crack offenses were black.
More recently, the penalties for
crack were reduced to bring them
more in line with those for powder,
and Tuesday was the first day
inmates locked up under the old rules
could get out early.
Some 12,000 prisoners are expect-
ed to benet from reduced sentences
over the next several years, with an
estimated 1,900 eligible for immedi-
ate release as of Tuesday. On aver-
age, inmates will get three years
shaved off their sentences.

OAKLAND A widely antici-
pated strike Wednesday by anti-
Wall Street demonstrators in
Oakland is expected to get a big
boost from organized labor and
established advocacy groups whose
grievances range from school clo-
sures and waning union benets to
home foreclosures and cuts to
libraries and services for the dis-
abled.
The unions representing
Oaklands public school teachers,
community college instructors, city
government workers and University
of California, Berkeley teaching
assistants have endorsed the broad-
based call to action that is expected
to include marches, pickets outside
banks and an attempt to shut down
the Port of Oakland in the evening.
The Alameda Labor Council, an
umbrella group for AFL-CIO-afli-
ated union locals, also voiced sup-
port for a citywide work and school
walkout, saying it planned to host a
cookout Wednesday evening at the
plaza outside Oakland City Hall
where demonstrators have estab-
lished an encampment.
At least one union, however, was
unhappy with its role in the daylong
actions. The citys police union pub-
lished a letter Tuesday criticizing
what it said was a ip-op by
Mayor Jean Quan on the citys
Occupy Wall Street protests and
questioning why the city plans to
beef up its police presence at strike-
related events while giving other
city workers leeway to participate.
Is it the citys intention to have
city employees on both sides of a
skirmish line? the letter said.
The scathing letter comes one
week after police were asked to
clear the protesters encampment
during an early morning raid, only
to have Quan allow the protesters
reclaim the plaza outside City Hall
the next day by tearing down fences
protecting the lawn.
The raid, which was followed by
a tear gas-clouded standoff with
marchers that night, led to about
100 arrests and the wounding of an
Iraq War veteran who received a
fractured skull. His injury has
helped make Oakland, and its police
department, a rallying point in the
national Occupy Wall Street move-
ment.

Oakland mayor slammed
over handling of Occupy
By David B. Caruso
NEW YORK With its noisy
drum circle, meandering parades of
bandanna-clad youth and disdain for
centralized leadership, the Occupy
Wall Street encampment sometimes
has the ragtag look of a group that is
making things up as it goes along
and discovering its own purpose
along the way.
But from the start, the movement
has also gotten support from a long
list of experienced, well-funded
organizations, unions and political
committees sometimes to the dis-
comfort of more radical protesters
who worry about their message
being co-opted or watered down.
After an initial hesitation to get
involved, unions from Boston to Los
Angeles have sent members to
march in the demonstrations and
donate air mattresses, food and other
supplies. In Oakland, unions repre-
senting teachers and government
workers are encouraging members to
take a day off from work to march
with protesters Wednesday.

Two terminals temporarily
closed at Oakland port
OAKLAND Two marine termi-
nals at the Port of Oakland have
been shut down over concerns that
refrigerated containers serviced in
Vietnam may combust after being
powered up.
The dockworkers union forced
the closure of the terminals Monday
after it learned of a quarantine of
refrigerated containers that had been
serviced in Vietnam. One of the two
terminals was also closed Tuesday.
The containers were quarantined
after reports of explosions and inci-
dents of spontaneous combustion
that resulted in at least three fatali-
ties, according to a trade publica-
tion, World Cargo News.
The U.S. Coast Guard on Monday
isolated about 13 of the containers in
question in Oakland. So far, there
have been no injuries at the Port of
Oakland.
City passes resolution

The council on Tuesday voted 8-3
in favor of a resolution calling on
city authorities to ensure that there
will be no use of force to the pro-
testers who are demonstrating
against the economic disparity
between the richest 1 percent of the
nations population and the other 99
percent.
Protesters have been camping out
near the citys historic ferry termi-
nal, an area frequented by thousands
of tourists and commuters.

OPINION 9
A self-made man?
W
hen men are the most sure and arrogant,
they commonly are the most mistaken.
David Hume
While reading Time magazine recently, I came upon
the following: Dont blame
Wall Street. Dont blame the
big banks. If you dont have a
job and youre not rich, blame
yourself. Herman Cain.
Outrageous! Can you believe
that anyone in this day and age
would believe this? Would you
believe that anyone could be so
estranged from reality and so
lacking in empathy? What does
this kind of thinking indicate?
Is it a person who has no feel-
ing for those less fortunate
because, in his arrogance, he
cant see how others cant always make it for any
number of reasons?
Does he think that those who are wealthy (including him-
self) have made it entirely on their own, and that his good
fortune has been of his own effort? Does he believe that no
luck was involved not even his date and place of birth
and his parents? Doesnt this demonstrate a disturbing lack
of rationality? Doesnt he know that not everyone can be
rich? Does he not realize that some people dont have the
mentality, the ability, stability or, yes, luck to qualify for a
high-paying career or to even to hold down a job?
Isnt this statement a good way for him to feed his ego
and the feeling that he is much better than those who he
looks down upon? Is it his way of justifying his need to
hang on to his wealth because he believes that those slack-
ers dont deserve better? Makes you wonder if Republicans
like him, who so adamantly oppose any tax hike for the
wealthy, were to be told that any extra taxes they would be
required to pay would only be used to help the homeless
and hungry, if they would agree to it.
I would like to ask Mr. Cain where all the jobs are for
those who he says should blame themselves for their dilem-
ma. What does he propose should be done about those
who, for any number of reasons, fail to pull themselves up
by their bootstraps? Let them suffer and rot? Or maybe the
rich could use some of their money to hire more police to
deal with the crime that would surely increase. But he
wouldnt want his taxes used for that, either. Is Mr. Cain a
Christian? Hasnt he heard, There, but for the grace of
God, go I? Or how about the one about the rich man get-
ting into heaven being about as likely as a camel getting
through the eye of a needle?
Mr. Cain, or anyone who agrees with him, should never
be president or in any political office, for that matter. A
person with no empathy, no feeling for others, including
the plight of those who lose their jobs and/or their homes
because of the present state of the economy, is a person
who is so wound up in himself and his dogma that he
should never be involved in the government of a democrat-
ic nation.
Governments that claim to be democratic yet do not
seriously address systemic poverty promote a spectrum of
cognitive, emotional, behavioral and interpersonal difficul-
ties. As the gulf between the socially marginalized and the
wealthy increases, the situation becomes ripe for a dogmat-
ic authoritarian leader to offer simplistic solutions that fur-
ther deepen the gulf on both sides and fan the smoldering
psychological deficiencies that ignite dogmatism. So
Whats So Wrong About Being Absolutely Right? Judy
J. Johnson.
Seems that besides their hatred for Obama, Mr. Cains
despicable words underlie the Republicans refusal to even
consider any tax increase for the wealthy. Their mental
sclerosis is so ingrained that they cant see beyond their
deep-seated prejudices and their belief that they are superi-
or and therefore can do no wrong. As Johnson added, as
long as traditions value dogmatic belief systems that reflect
an attitude of me rather than we, and us versus them,
we diminish our humanity.
Government programs are essential to help the poor and
unfortunate. Private organizations and services can in no
way handle it all. There arent enough Bill Gates and
Warren Buffett types around to take care of the situation.
And, of course, those like Cain would never contribute to
such organizations. Could he even imagine a grimy, hun-
gry, homeless little child looking up at him with sad, plead-
ing eyes? Or is there absolutely no place in his heart for
compassion? After all, that child should just tell her dad to
get a job. Pathetically, this kind of mentality would con-
tribute greatly to turning this country into a third world
type nation.
There are none so blind as those who will not see.

School measures
Measure E-Burlingame
Elementary School District
$76 annual parcel tax-YES
The Burlingame Elementary School
District is asking voters to support a $76
annual tax for four years, which would
create about $589,000 annually. The dis-
trict asked voters in 2010 for an exten-
sion of two parcel taxes totaling $180
that were set to expire in July 2011. The
extension was for 10 years and would
not increase the annual tax burden on the
average property owner. The extension
passed and brings in $1.4 million a year,
representing approximately 7.5 percent
of the districts budget. The district
decided to ask for no cost of living
adjustment so the annual amount will be
xed while the ination-adjusted cost of
the parcel tax to taxpayers will drop
every year over its 10-year life. The
Burlingame Community Foundation reg-
ularly raises approximately $800,000 a
year for programs, and this year, it upped
its goal to an additional $500,000 to
make up for state cuts. This took a
tremendous community effort but was
not something that could be expected to
be maintained in the long term. In the
meantime, district ofcials wanted to
look for a stable form of revenue.
Measure E is that result of that effort.
The community rallied to ensure pro-
grams would be saved. This measure
would provide a short-term income sup-
plement while the economy improves. It
deserves your support.
Measure N-Millbrae Elementary
School District $30 million bond-YES
In 2008, Millbrae voters approved
Measure X, a $30 million bond measure
equating to a $19 annual tax per $100,000
of a propertys assessed value. A facilities
plan generated at the time showed needs
higher than the bond could meet.
If approved, Measure N would allow
the district to nish projects not covered
with the rst bond like a state-of-the-art
cafeteria to accommodate all Taylor
Middle School students. The current
cafeteria is not large enough to house
even half the schools students. An
expanded facility with additional covered
outdoor picnic benches and a larger
kitchen would allow for the districts
food needs to be produced in one loca-
tion and would cut costs. Such a building
could also act as a community center or
be built to include recreation options like
a basketball court.
The bond will also allow the district to
upgrade technology in the classroom and
make essential repairs to infrastructure.
The bond measure would annually cost
property owners up to $25 per $100,000
of assessed value. That amount adds up,
but the state has not provided money for
facility upgrades. This measure allows
the district to continue modernizing its
schools. It deserves your support.
Measure O-San Bruno
Park Elementary School
District $40 million bond-YES
Critics of this bond measure contend
the tax burden will be too great for its
populace on top of other tax proposals on
the November ballot and in addition to
other bonds residents already pay for on
their tax bill. They also suggest the dis-
trict should not have used some of the
money from the sale of the Sandburg
school site for other obligations.
These are valid points. Many property
owners are feeling the pain of the econo-
my and ideally, the money from the
school sale would go solely to improve-
ments. However, state budget cuts forced
many school districts to take varied means
to protect their local assets. The majority
of the money from the school sale are
going to school improvements like the
rst phase of Parkside Intermediate
School renovation, but there is still more
of a need. The school sale provided one-
time money that cannot be relied upon for
the breadth of improvements needed.
This bond measure would cost proper-
ty owners $30 per $100,000 of assessed
value. That is no small amount, but the
money would go toward much-needed
infrastructure improvements to the dis-
tricts schools. Vote yes.
City measures
Measure G-City of San
Mateo General Plan and
Municipal Code Amendment-YES
Measure P, the voter-driven initiative
approved in 2004 by San Mateo resi-
dents, requires developers to provide 15
percent of new units be set aside at
below-market rates. Measure P was an
extension of Measure H, which limited
the citys building heights and set the
requirement for inclusionary zoning so
below-market units were not combined
into one building, but rather included in a
development so it did not separate those
of lower incomes from those of higher
incomes.
However, in 2009, a federal judge
ruled in Palmer v. the city of Los
Angeles that Los Angeless below-mar-
ket rate housing requirement could not
be imposed because it violates California
Civil Code. Measure G would amend the
citys charter to provide alternative meth-
ods of providing adequate low-income
housing units by creating a housing
impact fee and fee refund incentive pro-
gram. The measure would adhere to the
voters previous will, and comply with
the recent ruling. It deserves your sup-
port.
Measure I-City of Redwood City-
Transit Occupancy Tax-YES
The city is proposing increasing its
transit occupancy tax, or hotel tax, from
10 percent to 12 percent to generate an
additional $640,000 annually to pay for
city services. This measure is part of a
package of two measures the city is ask-
ing for to increase its revenue; the other
is Measure M. State budget cuts and the
economy has forced municipalities to
look for additional sources of revenue
and this is one measure that would help.
The average Redwood City resident
would not see a nancial impact. Vote
yes.
Measure K-City of Redwood
City-Charter Amendment-YES
The city is asking voters to change the
city charter in part so the maximum pub-
lic benet is another factor when selling
or leasing city property. This measure
would allow the city to not take the low-
est bidder when selling or leasing its
property and enable it to ensure certain
properties create more benet. It gives
the city more exibility and enables bet-
ter property decisions rather than relying
on the lowest bidder. Vote yes.
Measure M-City of Redwood
City-Business License Tax-YES
The city last increased its business
license tax in July 1994. This measure
calls for an annual 5 percent increase
over ve years. The rate is currently $37
per business plus $24 for each full-time
employee and $12 for each part-time
employee. The recommended increase
would change the tax to $59 per business
plus $38 and $19 for each full-time and
part-time employee, respectively.
Increasing the business license tax would
generate an extra $825,000 annually for
the city. This is a modest increase for the
citys businesses and better reects the
services the city provides its businesses
while generating additional revenue to
pay for those services. Vote yes.
Measure P-City of Foster
City-Transit Occupancy Tax-YES
The city of Foster City is asking for an
increase of its transit occupancy tax, or
hotel tax, from 8 percent to 9.5 percent
to generate $250,000 a year to pay for
city services. The city will still have one
of the lowest hotel taxes in the county,
even with this increase. The citys
nances are well-managed and this small
amount will help. The hotels support the
increase, and the average Foster City res-
ident will not see any nancial impact.
Vote yes.

NEW YORK A wave of selling
swept across Wall Street and stock mar-
kets around the world Tuesday after
Greeces prime minister said he would
call a national vote on an unpopular
European plan to rescue that nations
economy.
The Dow Jones industrial average
finished down nearly 300 points. It
swung in 100 point bursts throughout
the day as investors reacted to some-
times conflicting headlines about the
next steps in Greeces long-running
debt crisis. Treasurys and other assets
considered safe surged. The stocks of
major banks, including Citigroup and
JPMorgan Chase, were hit hard.
Intense selling roiled markets in
Europe. Italys main stock index
dropped 6.8 percent. Frances fell 5.4
percent and Germanys fell 5 percent.
The value of the dollar rose, and bond
prices jumped so dramatically that ana-
lysts said they were stunned. Analysts
said the bond action reflected fears that
the turmoil in Greece would tear at the
fabric of Europes financial system and
create a crisis that could engulf the
entire European Union, which together
forms the worlds largest economy.
This brings all of the concerns about
Europe back to the front burner, said
Scott Brown, chief economist at
Raymond James. If this ends up turn-
ing into a financial catastrophe in
Europe, then no one will escape it.
The prime minister of Greece said
unexpectedly Monday that he would
put the European rescue plan to a popu-
lar vote, the first referendum to be held
in Greece since 1974.
The plan requires banks that hold
Greek national bonds to accept 50 per-
cent losses to help keep the Greek econ-
omy afloat. It also beefs up a European
bailout fund and requires banks to
strengthen their financial cushions.
There were also late reports that
Greek lawmakers dissented from the
plan, raising the possibility that
Greeces government would not last
until a confidence vote on Friday.
International creditors have demand-
ed that Greece enact painful tax
increases and drastic cuts in public wel-
fare programs, and Greeks have shown
their hostility to those measures in vio-
lent protests and strikes.
If the European rescue falls through
and Greece defaults on its debt, the rip-
ple effect would be global. Europe
could fall into recession, hurting a
major market for American exports, and
banks could severely restrict lending.
Greek turmoil sends stocks lower

Drugmaker Pzer Inc. beat Wall Street
expectations with higher prot and rev-

generic competition starts wiping out
sales of cholesterol ghter Lipitor
and possibly Pzers position as the
worlds largest drugmaker.
Pzer on Tuesday raised its 2011 prof-
it forecast, despite price-cutting pressure
in Europe and the U.S., generic compe-
tition cutting sales of 17 drugs and
cheaper generic versions of Pzers cash
cow Lipitor expected in the U.S. in just
four weeks.
Shares jumped 2.5 percent early on
and closed up 7 cents at $19.33 on a
volatile trading day.
Pzers third-quarter prot more than
tripled, lifted by higher international
revenue, a $1.32 billion gain from sell-
ing its capsule-making business and
much lower charges than the year
before.
The company reported net income of
$3.74 billion, or 48 cents a share, up
from $866 million, or 11 cents per share,
a year earlier. That was depressed by
$3.51 billion in restructuring and other
charges.
The maker of impotence pill Viagra
said adjusted income was 62 cents per
share. That excludes net charges totaling
nearly $1.1 billion, from the Capsugel
sale, past acquisitions and other issues.
Analysts expected adjusted earnings
of 55 cents per share on revenue of
$16.43 billion.
Revenue rose 7 percent to $17.2 bil-
lion, due to new products from buying
painkiller maker King Pharmaceuticals
in February and a 6 percent boost from
favorable currency exchange rates.

No major Fed moves
expected as economy
showing improvment
By Martin Crutsinger
WASHINGTON Lets wait and see.
Thats likely to be the message from the Federal Reserve on
Wednesday, when its two-day policy meeting ends. Few expect
any bold new steps to be announced.
Fed policymakers likely want to gauge the impact of action
theyve taken recently to keep interest rates low. The Fed has
breathing room because the economy and stock markets have
strengthened enough to allay fears of another recession.
After their September meeting, the policymakers said they
would shufe the Feds investment portfolio to try to further
reduce long-term interest rates. And in their previous meeting
in August, they had said they plan to keep short-term rates near
zero until at least mid-2013 unless the economy improved.
They know they are running out of tools, so they dont want
to employ another one unless they have to, said David Wyss,
former chief economist at Standard & Poors.
At its last meeting, the Fed left open the possibility of taking
additional action to try to help the economy. One option is to
further explain the steps it has already taken and their purpos-
es. Another would be to launch a third program of bond pur-
chases.
But the Fed remains deeply divided over what, if any, action
to take, which is another reason economists dont expect any
major announcements this week.
The actions taken in August and September were adopted on
7-3 votes, the most dissents in nearly 20 years.
Three regional bank presidents Richard Fisher of Dallas,
Charles Plosser of Philadelphia and Narayana Kocherlakota of
Minneapolis all voted no. They have expressed concerns
that the Feds policies could lead to high ination later.
On the other hand, four policymakers are worried that the
Fed might not be doing enough. Vice Chair Janet Yellen,
Governor Daniel Tarullo, Chicago Fed President Charles
Evans and New York Fed President William Dudley have said
the economy is at risk and might need more support.
I have never seen the Fed more deeply divided than it is at
this moment, said David Jones, head of DMJ Advisors and the
author of books on the Fed.
At its meeting in September, the Fed stopped short of
expanding its portfolio of investments. Instead, it opted to
shufe $400 billion of its investments to try to lower long-term
rates.
But two ofcials pushed for bolder action, according to min-
utes of the meeting. The members discussed more bond-buy-
ing. Some said it should remain an option.
A brighter outlook for the economy has given the Fed more
room to wait. The economy grew at an annual rate of 2.5 per-
cent in the July-September period the best quarterly per-
formance in a year.
Thats strong enough to show that the economy isnt about
to slide into recession. Still, growth would have to be nearly
twice as high consistently to make a major dent in the
unemployment rate, which has been stuck at 9.1 percent for
three straight months.

NEW YORK Bank of America
Corp. is scrapping its plan to charge a
$5 monthly fee for making debit card
purchases after an uproar and threat-
ened exodus by customers.
The about-face comes as customers
petitioned the bank, and mobilized to
close their accounts and take their busi-
ness elsewhere. The outcry had already
prompted other major banks, including
JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Wells
Fargo & Co., to cancel tests of similar
debit card fees last week.
SunTrust Banks and Regions
Financial Corp. followed suit on
Monday.
Anne Pace, a spokeswoman for Bank
of America, declined to say whether the
company experienced a spike in
account closures since announcing
plans for the debit card fee in
September.
But in a statement Tuesday, Bank of
Americas co-Chief Operating Officer
David Darnell said the decision was
based on customer feedback. Our cus-
tomers voices are most important to us.
As a result, we are not currently charg-
ing the fee and will not be moving for-
ward with any additional plans to do
so, he said.
Pace added that a changing compet-
itive marketplace also played a role.
The retreat by the banking industry
on debit fees comes amid growing pub-
lic anger over higher bank fees.
When I heard about the fee, it was
the last straw for me, said Molly
Katchpole, a 22-year-old nanny who
started the online petition urging Bank
of America to drop the debit fee. Im
living paycheck to paycheck and one
more fee was just too much.
Katchpole said it was exciting that
customers were able to sway a big cor-
poration to rethink its decision. But she
already closed her account a few weeks
ago and said the banks decision wont
win her back.
She plans to stay with her new com-
munity bank in Washington, D.C.
Other customers may be more forgiv-
ing.
Diane Abela, a 38-year-old
Manhattan resident, said she had been
waiting to see if Bank of America
would back down on its plan before
closing her account.
I had a feeling if there was big out-
cry, they wouldnt go through with it,
said Abela, who is unemployed. She
said she wouldve canceled her account
if the bank had followed through.

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Foster City Planning Commission will hold a Study Session at 7:00 pm on
Tuesday, November 15, 2011 to review and consider the revised Goals, Policies and Programs, prepared for the
Update of the Land Use and Circulation Element of the General Plan.

The City of Foster City General Plan is the guiding document for the future vision of the City. The Land Use and
Circulation Element establishes a pattern for land use and sets out clear standards for the density of population and
the intensity of development for each of the proposed land uses, with a direct tie between the timing, amount, type
and location of development with the traffic, service and infrastructure demands such development will generate.

The update of the Foster City General Plan (adopted in 1993) is necessary because many of the objectives stated
in the existing General Plan have been met. A new General Plan is required to address new planning issues that
will emerge. The updated General Plan is intended to be a map for the future that will guide the development and
growth of the City while maintaining and enhancing the quality of life.

The revision of the Goals, Policies and Programs of the Land Use and Circulation Element came out of the
community input and background reports prepared for the General Plan Update. These reports identified areas
where the City excels, where it can improve, and what the citizens like and do not like about Foster City. Staff
reviewed the existing Goals, Policies and Programs and will recommend changes where appropriate, to fulfill the
goals of the community to take the City where we want to go in the next 5 to 10 years. Proposed new Goals,
Policies and Programs will be reviewed at a subsequent Study Session.

SAID Study Session will be held in the Council Chambers, 620 Foster City Boulevard, Foster City, California. The
Study Session will be televised on FCTV, Channel 27.

THE PUBLIC IS INVITED TO PROVIDE COMMENTS ON THE REVISED GOALS POLICIES AND PROGRAMS.
NO DECISIONS WILL BE SOUGHT OR MADE REGARDING APPROVAL OF THE GENERAL PLAN UPDATE.

DOCUMENT AVAILABILITY
The Draft Revised Goals, Policies and Programs will be available for public review after November 4, 2011. Copies
of the reports and all documents related to the General Plan Update are available for review Monday through
Friday, between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., at the City of Foster City Community Development
Department, 610 Foster City Boulevard, Foster City, California 94404. Information regarding the project and Study
Session Staff Report will be available on the Citys website at www.fostercity.org.

QUESTIONS:
If you have questions about the Planning Commission Study Session, or general questions about this project,
please contact Julie Moloney, Senior Planner, at (650) 286-3242 or jmoloney@fostercity.org.

Any attendee wishing accommodations at the meeting should contact the Community Development Department at
(650) 286-3225, at least 48 hours in advance of the meeting.

WASHINGTON The surprise prospect of
a Greek referendum on a European rescue plan
illustrates President Barack Obamas limited
ability to push for a swift resolution to a euro-
zone crisis that could sweep across the Atlantic
and threaten the U.S.s fragile economic recov-
ery.
Prime Minister George Papandreous unex-
pected call for a public vote on the aid pack-
age, which includes unpopular austerity meas-
ures, comes just two days before Obama joins
the leaders of the worlds largest industrial and
developing nations for an economic summit in
Cannes, France.
With uncertainty already swirling about the
European rescue agreement reached last week,
Papandreous announcement raised anxieties
to a new level. The European deal, which still
needs work to iron out its ner points, may
have just been unwound by this decision, said
Heather Conley, a senior fellow at the Center
for Strategic and International Studies.
This is really crunch time, the stakes could
not be higher, she said.
While Obama has asserted that the U.S. will
be a leader in the world economy, the White
House on Tuesday put the burden on Europe to
act swiftly in light of Papandreous call for a
referendum.
The announcement he (Papandreou) made
reinforces the notion that the Europeans need
to elaborate further and implement rapidly the
decisions they made last week, White House
spokesman Jay Carney said. It remains the
case that the Europeans have the capacity to
deal with this crisis and they need to imple-
ment the very important decisions they made
last week to provide a conclusive resolution to
it.
The troubled eurozone will be the urgent
topic in Cannes, placing much of the summits
attention on German Chancellor Angela
Merkel and French President Nicolas Sarkozy,
pushing aside Obamas central message to the
Group of 20 nations that they need to focus on
short-term growth and longer-term debt.
Throughout his presidency, Obama has
pressed countries with trade surpluses such as
China, Germany and Japan to do more to pro-
mote domestic spending and more to support
global economic growth.
The only overriding international issue for
the G-20 is the continuing crisis in Europe,
said Rob Shapiro, a former undersecretary of
commerce in the Clinton administration and
now chairman of Sonecon, an economic con-
sulting rm.
For Obama, it means walking a ne line
between pushing the Europeans to act swiftly
and expressing confidence that they will.
Obama annoyed some Europeans last month
when he declared that the unresolved debt cri-
sis was scaring the world.
But Obama brings few tools to the G20
meeting to leverage any action on the
European debt crisis. Administration ofcials
are playing down any nancial role for the
United States in helping eurozone leaders cre-
ate a rewall that would stop Greeces crisis
from spreading. However, they noted that the
International Monetary Fund, with U.S. nan-
cial assistance, could be called on to assist.

ed Tuesday a trend that a U.S. health of-
cial called an epidemic, but one that can be
stopped.
Prescription painkillers such as OxyContin,
Vicodin and methadone led to the deaths of
almost 15,000 people in 2008, including actor
Heath Ledger. Thats more than three times
the 4,000 deaths from narcotics in 1999.
Such painkillers are meant to help people
who have severe pain, said Dr. Thomas
Frieden, director of the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention in Atlanta, which
issued the report. They are, however, highly
addictive.
The report shows nearly 5 percent of
Americans ages 12 and older said theyve
abused painkillers in the past year using
them without a prescription or just for the
high. In 2008-09 surveys, Oklahomans report-
ed the highest rate of abuse; the lowest was in
Nebraska and Iowa.

NEW ORLEANS First lady Michelle
Obama led toddlers at a New Orleans daycare
center in calisthenics and read them a book
about a mouse that eats green peas, bidding to
get Americas children eating better and exer-
cising more.
Obama stretched, jumped and marched in
place before reading to the children who gath-
ered in a classroom with their parents and
teachers at the Royal Castle Child
Development Center. The center focuses on
preschoolers from families with moderate and
low incomes.
In June, the rst lady announced a new
national initiative called Lets Move,
designed to get child care centers to promote
healthy eating and exercise habits.

The gym at Terra Nova was electric
Tuesday night as the Tigers faithful were
anticipating a coronation. A win over visiting
Hillsdale would lock up the Peninsula Athletic
League Ocean Division title for the Tigers.
The Knights had other ideas. Needing a win
to pull into a rst-place tie, Hillsdale rallied
for wins in Game 4 and 5 to take thrilling 25-
21, 22-25, 24-26, 25-20, 15-7 victory.
We wanted to do it in three (games), said
Hillsdale coach Ricky Villareal. But were
prepared for ve. That fth set is about desire
and determination. Its about heart.
Considering Hillsdale (11-2 PAL Ocean,
18-8 overall) could not stop Terra Nova (11-2,
20-7) middle blocker Keani Hin, its amazing
the Knights overcame the Tigers. Hin nished
with a match-high 22 kills. Whenever the
Tigers needed a point, they went to Hin, who
delivered more often than not.
She is a beast, said Terra Nova coach Joe
Seavey.
But in the decisive Game 5, it was the
Knights who were virtually unstoppable as
Terra Nova appeared to tighten up. The
Knights had only seven kills in the race to 15,
with Terra Nova committing eight errors.
Hillsdale also got a bit lucky in the nal
game. Twice the Knights simply were trying
to get the ball over the net a free ball in
volleyball parlance. Each time, the ball found
the oor.
The game went back and forth with ve ties
through the rst 10 points. A Tigers hitting
error gave Hillsdale a 6-5 lead, but Terra Nova
looked poised to tie the game at six when
Hayley Listmann blocked a shot at the net.
The Knights somehow dug the ball up and
after another dig, Hillsdales Karen Chang,
with her back to the net, simply knocked the
ball over the net. It went off Listmann, who
went for the block, and fell to the oor to put
the Knights up 7-5. Kelley Maloney followed
with a kills to put the Knights up four. Another
Terra Nova error and a Maloney kill gave the
Knights an 11-5 lead. Two more Tigers errors
put the Knights two points away from the win

PADRES GET SHOT AT BEST: AFTER BEATING VALLEY CHRISTIAN IN WCAL PLAYOFFS, SERRA TO FACE TOP SEED BELLARMINE >>> PAGE 15
DAILY JOURNAL SPORTS FILE
DJ Peluo is El Caminos best player in all three phases of the game: offense, defense and special teams.
Athlete of the Week
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
If youre a member of the
Peninsula Athletic Leagues Ocean
and Lake Divisions, there is no such
thing as a non-big game.
Ten teams. Two automatic CCS
spots. That is it.
So the fact that the El Camino
football team will take the eld
Friday night with a shot to claim a
share of the Lake Division title
when they face off against
Carlmont, is beyond huge.
And they have running back DJ
Peluso to thank for that.
Big game after big game for the
Colts, the tailback has carried his
team. And last week against San
Mateo, in a must-win game for El
Camino, Peluso probably had his
best overall performance of the sea-
son.
On offense, Peluso carried the
ball 27 times for 241 yards, nding
the end zone twice. He also caught a
28-yard touchdown pass. On
defense, Peluso forced a fumble and
recovered two more. And on special
team, Peluso made a touchdown-
saving tackle.
To say that Peluso had his hands
in every bit of El Caminos 34-7 win
against the Bearcats would not be a
stretch.
For his efforts against San Mateo,
DJ Peluso is the Daily Journal
Athlete of the Week.
The numbers, a lot of times,
dont really tell the story, said El
Camino coach Mark Turner. Good
numbers dont really tell the story,
bad numbers dont always tell the
story. But hes consistently put up
good numbers throughout the whole
season.
For Peluso in 2011, perhaps
whats been the most striking is his
ability to put up said numbers with-
out inating them through a large
amount of carries. Turner points out

ALAMEDA The Oakland Raiders
signed wide receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh to
a contract on Tuesday, reuniting him with his
former quarterback Carson Palmer.
Palmer and Houshmandzadeh were team-
mates in Cincinnati for six seasons and both
had their greatest NFL success when they
were together.
Houshmandzadeh, 34, had been out of the
league since playing with
Baltimore last season but
had been working out in
Southern California with
Palmer before the Raiders
(4-3) acquired the quarter-
back last month.
Houshmandzadeh is
also very familiar with
Raiders coach Hue
Jackson, who was the
receivers coach in
Cincinnati for three years during
Houshmandzadehs tenure there.
Houshmandzadeh averaged 89 catches over
a ve-year span in Cincinnati. His best season
came in 2007, when he caught a career-high
112 passes for 1,143 yards and 12 touch-
downs.
But he struggled after leaving the Bengals.
He had 79 catches for 911 yards and three
touchdowns in Seattle in 2009 before bottom-
ing out last season with the Ravens when he
had only 30 catches for 398 yards and three
touchdowns. His tenure in Baltimore ended
with a key fourth-down drop in a playoff loss
to Pittsburgh last January.
Hes a guy that made a lot of catches when
it was sticky, Jackson said Monday before
Houshmandzadeh signed. With people
draped all over him, he made some uncom-
mon plays for us in Cincinnati. Thats all I can
go by in Cincinnati. I did not coach him in
Seattle, I did not coach him in Baltimore.

SAN FRANCISCO A profes-
sional surfer competing in a contest
Tuesday in the cold waters of San
Franciscos Ocean Beach left the
waves before the end of his heat
after saying he saw a large shark.
Surfer Dusty Payne, 22, of Hawaii
left the surf
while competing
against Jordy
Smith of South
Africa. Payne
said he spotted a
large shark fin
just outside the
lineup, where
surfers sit in the
water and wait for their turn.
I was just sitting there, and I was
waiting for a wave. Ive seen dol-
phins before, and it wasnt a dol-
phin, Payne said during an inter-
view on the beach with the Rip Curl
Pro Search events camera crew. It
was the biggest n Ive ever seen in
my life coming straight at me.
A contest boat oating just off-
shore called in after the alleged
sighting, saying they saw a dolphin,
not a shark, said Dave Prodan,
media director for the Association
of Surng Professionals.
This obviously doesnt preclude
the situation of having both a dol-
phin and shark in the water at the
same time, and event organizers
launched a jet ski to further assess
the situation, Prodan said.
Aside from Paynes initial report,
no further sighting of the animal
was conrmed and the competition
resumed without pausing.
The sighting follows an attack by
a 9-foot shark on a surfer Saturday
at Marina State Beach in Monterey

While the football season has only two
weeks left in the regular season, the college
basketball season is starting to ramp up. The
CSM womens basketball team will help kick
off the season by hosting the Super
Scrimmage for Cancer Saturday from 9 a.m.
to 5 p.m.
The scrimmage, which is being used as a
fundraiser for the American Cancer Society, is
the rst opportunity for 14 community college
teams throughout Northern California, and
one four-year school, U.C. Merced, to get a
quality workout while also seeing what the
competition holds for this season.
Ours is the only Northern California super
scrimmage, said CSM coach Michelle
Warner. I really like to do it because I like to
give my team a chance to see whats out
there.
There will be no admission charged, but
donations are encouraged. All funds raised
between donations and the sale of merchan-
dise will be given to the American Cancer
Society. As the games are just scrimmages,
score will not be kept and each game will use
a 22-minute, running-clock game. All teams
are guaranteed four different opponents. CSM
will play Bakerseld at 10 a.m., Merced at 11
a.m., Sacramento at noon and College of the
Sequoias at 1:30 p.m.
Warner has one of her largest and experi-
enced teams in years and hopes it will pay off
with a successful season.
With eight sophomores, Its nice to have
that leadership, Warner said. I just hope to
keep everybody healthy. Were just about two-
deep at every spot.
It was also announced that sophomore point
guard Clarissa Mendoza, out of Westmoor,
was one of ve players named to the state all-
academic team following the 2010-11 season
during which Mendoza posted a 4.0 grade
point average.
Womens water polo
The CSM womens water polo team is gear-
ing up for the Coast Conference tournament
hosted by De Anza this weekend, with an out-
side, long-shot chance of qualifying for the
Northern California tournament.
The Bulldogs biggest obstacle, however, is
their seeding. Despite nishing in a three-way
tie for third place with Cabrillo and Ohlone,
the Bulldogs received the No. 4 seed in the
tournament based on goal differential
meaning a win over No. 5 Ohlone Friday
would put them in the seminals against top-
seeded Merced, which is 25-1 on the season.
In our conference, we have as much a
chance to beat Merced as anyone, Wright
said, adding the Bulldogs lost twice to Merced
this season.
Wright, however, is not looking past
Ohlone, the Bulldogs rst opponent. With the
goal being a top-three nish in the conference,
CSM needs to beat Ohlone to have a chance to
accomplish that goal. The Bulldogs are
buoyed by the fact they beat the Renegades 5-
2 last Friday.
We played really well against Ohlone
Friday, Wright said. They were really frus-
trated. Theyre going to have to make big
changes to increase their productivity. We
want to take them out of their game as soon as
possible.
While the Nor Cal tournament looks like a
long shot, Wright is pleased to end the season
against three quality opponents. A win over
Ohlone would send the Bulldogs into the
CSM basketball to
kick off new season

Bulldogs look to bounce back

The College of San Mateo football team
could look at a number of different mistakes
that led to last weekends 17-14 loss to City
College of San Francisco, the No. 1 team in
nation.
There were two missed eld goals and four
turnovers by the Bulldogs. They forced four
Rams fumbles, but City College managed to
recover all four.
In a game thats that tight, you can point to
your nger at eight to 10 plays, said Tim
Tulloch, CSM defensive coordinator and
assistant head coach.
With the loss, CSM dropped from No. 8 to
No. 10 in the state rankings, and from No. 5 to
No. 6 in the Northern California poll.
But the Bulldogs will not be pointing any
ngers following their second loss of the sea-
son. In fact, Tulloch and the coaching staff
were satised with the way the team played
overall. They held the Rams to nearly 200
yards under their season average and they held
them to their second-lowest point total of the
season.
They played the way we wanted them to
play, Tulloch said of the Bulldogs. We
played against Los Medanos [Oct. 8] and won
whatever to zero (61-0). When we watched
the lm, we didnt play well.
[Against San Francisco] we missed only
four tackles for 15 yards. Our guys were
dialed in. I was just so proud with the way our
guys executed. They played well against a
good team.
CSM (2-1 NorCal Conference, 6-2 overall)
was on its heels after San Francisco drove for
a touchdown on the opening drive of the
game, and then fumbled the ball away on the
ensuing kickoff.
But the Bulldogs did not give in. They
forced the Rams to turn the ball over on downs
following that rst turnover and held again as
San Francisco missed a eld goal on its next
possession. Never at any point did the CSM
defense hang its head.
We have ultimate condence in our guys in
those situations, Tulloch said. Theyre pre-
pared for that. They accept that as a challenge.
Any time theres adversity, our guys embrace
that.

Despite playing in a league with
water polo powerhouses Bellarmine,
Sacred Heart Prep and St. Francis,
there is no doubt in Bob Greenes
mind that his Serra Padres belong in
the same conversation.
But before his team could prove
that, theyd have to take care of a lit-
tle business against Valley Christian
in the opening round of the West
Catholic Athletic League playoffs.
We dont want to play for fth
place, Greene said. Weve played
very well over the last month and we
want to play against Bellarmine, St.
Francis and Sacred Heart. We felt like
if we were playing for fth place,
wed be taking a step back. We cant
afford to go backwards. We had one
really bummer game earlier in the
year and we reminded ourselves of
that and said, OK, were not going to
let that happen. Were going to con-
tinue to go, continue to grow. We
know were one of the top four teams.
So, we have to go out and win.
Serra did just that Tuesday after-
noon. Behind a defense that stied
the Warriors for the majority of the
game, the Padres advance to the
WCAL seminals, ensuring a date
with Bellarmine following their 9-3
victory.
Im so excited because theyre the
No. 1 seed, Greene said of the Bells.
And thats who I want to go up
against. Last time, they bulldozed us,
they ran us into the ground. We did
not play very well at all. They played
great. Were playing a lot better now
(and) thats a great thing to see. A
month ago, we played X way
against Bellarmine. How are we
going to play against them on
Thursday? Were going to play fan-
tastic. If we play fantastic, we always
have a shot.
If they play defense like they did
Tuesday night, the Padres have a shot
against anyone.
Following a Valley Christian goal
from ve meters out with 4:52 left in
the second quarter, the Padres
clamped down defensively, and
would not allow another goal for 17
minutes and 36 seconds. It was an
impressive display of defensive strat-
egy and all the Serra offense had to
do was ride that wave.
Serras defensive efforts were
spearheaded by the man guarding the
cage, Steven Olujic.
We get to decide what defense
were going to play if hes blocking
balls and he played really, really well
today, Greene said. So since he was
able to do that, they have these two
really good players, so then we could
run drops and presses on them
because they guys we cant have
shooting the ball are those two guys.
So once we were able to take those
two guys out, it made it pretty hard
for their outside guys their other
outside guys have to step up and
shoot and it wasnt happening. So, it
was all defense.
The Padres spotted their goalkeep-
er a three-goal lead in the rst quarter,
with Con OLeary, Brandon Yee and
Anthony Buijan nding the back of
the net before Valley Christian scored
with 21 seconds left in the quarter.
The teams would trade a goal
apiece in the second quarter, with
Paul Smallman scoring for the
Padres.
The goals that we scored in the
rst and last quarter were really out of
two meters, Greene said. We were
able to get to those because our pass-
es got there faster. Earlier, we brought
the ball, wed get down there, wed
take our time. But they werent in an
all-out press against us. So, if we
could advance quickly, hurry up and
set the ball, we were going to get off
quality shots. So, we kept on feeding
it in there. The defense was all transi-
tion.
There was no getting past Olujic in
the third quarter, with the junior keep-
er tallying six saves. Valley Christian
would eventually score once more,
but that came with 1:16 in the game,
with the win well in hand for the
Padres.
Robert OLeary scored for Serra in
the third quarter. Buijan got his hat
trick in the fourth and Smallman
added his second goal. Kyle Sims
capped the scoring off for the Padres.
Serra beats Warriors, faces Bells next
How are we going to play against them
on Thursday? Were going to play fantastic.
If we play fantastic, we always have a shot.

BOSTON The agent for New
England Patriots receiver Julian
Edelman says his client will vigorous-
ly ght a charge that he groped a
woman during a Halloween party at a
Boston nightclub.
At a brief court hearing Tuesday, a
not guilty plea was entered for Edelman
to a charge of indecent assault and bat-
tery and he was released on personal
recognizance.
Edelman did not say anything during
the Boston Municipal Court appear-
ance, which last-
ed just a couple of
minutes. He and
his attorney, Amy
M c N a m e e ,
walked through a
crowd of
reporters outside
the courtroom
without address-
ing them. He is
due back in court on Jan. 10.
The charges will be fought vigor-
ously within the court system, instead
of a rush to judgment elsewhere. We
have no further comment beyond that,
agent Don Yee said in a statement
released later by the Patriots, who
declined to comment on the case.
Police were called to the club at
about 1:30 a.m. and met a woman who
said Edelman, 25, reached under her
costume and grabbed her crotch,
according to an application for a crimi-
nal complaint.
A witness who was with the woman
said he observed Edelman bump into
her and then saw her face change into
an expression of shock, the complaint
said. The woman and the witness told
police they approached nightclub staff
and asked to have Edelman thrown out.
The staff ejected the witness fol-
lowed by the victim, the complaint
said.
The nightclub manager told police
the witness was threatening to beat up
Edelman on the dance oor.
Edelman was arrested outside the
club, where he denied to police that he
groped the woman.
At his arraignment, he was ordered
by a judge to stay away from the
Storyville nightclub, and was ordered
to have no contact with the woman or
the witnesses.
Prosecutors did not ask for bail, but
they did request a protective order on
the womans name and address, which
the judge granted.
Edelman, a third-year player, was
drafted in the seventh round of the 2009
NFL draft out of Kent State and has
three catches this year for 25 yards. He
was inactive for last Sundays 25-17
loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. In his
career, he has 47 catches for 470 yards
and a touchdown. He has also returned
kicks for the team.

that Peluso has yet to carry the ball 30 times
in a single game this year. Against San Mateo,
he averaged 9.6 yards a touch.
He could easily have bigger numbers,
Turner said. (But) hes just been really, real-
ly consistent. Hes put up big numbers in big
games. Hes all over the place. And to still be
putting up offensive numbers like that, when
there is the expectation of that every week,
thats something special.
Against San Mateo, Peluso began his after-
noon with a 28-yard touchdown catch and run
to give El Camino a 7-0 lead in the second
quarter. He wasnt done though, minutes later
his 14-yard rushing touchdown doubled the
Colts lead.
Turner credits weekends in the lm room
for Pelusos success. While others are out
enjoying their weekends, Turner says Peluso
will call him up and ask for his coach to help
break down some lm.
Were seeing some things together on lm
that he might not necessarily see when were
watching it as a team, Turner said. Those
lms sessions, I think, have helped him out
and have helped me when hes doing things
that he needs to get better at. I can be very
picky with him. Those individual lm ses-
sions are big.
Speaking of big, perhaps looming even larg-
er is Pelusos presence on the defensive side
of the ball.
Hes our best defensive player, Turner
said. Hes been all over the place. Hes had a
couple of interceptions this year. He leads the
team in tackles every game. He causes fum-
bles. He was involved in three turnovers last
game, and thats huge. Hes an important part
of what we do.
And when he isnt running over Lake
Division defenders, or stopping his tailback
counterparts, Peluso has his leg on special
teams as well. Last week against San Mateo,
Turner said Peluso made a game-saving tack-
le on a kick return.
Fortunately, Turner said, we have a good
athlete as our kicker who can makes tackles in
open space.
Peluso will be asked to step up at least one
more time this Friday as El Camino battles
Carlmont for the Lake Division title and a trip
to CCS.
If we do the job up front, hes going to be
able to nish the deal for us, Turner said.
But it all starts up front, just like any other

Seeds hold in
PAL tourney before Madison Lavezzo earned a kill with
another free ball that found the oor. When
Hins nal attack was destined to go long,
Villareal simply raised his st as the Knights
celebrated.
Its the way [volleyball] is, said of the
Knights lucky bounces. Last time we played
them, we lost (3-1), but we were pleased with
our performance.
Hillsdale put the pressure on Terra Nova
immediately as the Tigers started the match
tight. The Knights had only seven kills in the
rst game, but earned the 25-21 win because
of 16 Terra Nova errors.
They were a little too tight, Seavey said.
We had a pretty tough practice [Monday]
because our matches last week didnt really
prepare us for this (match).
Villareal said it was imperative the Knights
take Game 1.
(Winning the) rst game is always impor-
tant, Villareal said. Because now the pres-
sure is on [the opponent].
The Tigers nally loosened up in Game 2.
The Knights were poised to take a 2-0 lead
when they built a 20-17 lead, but the Tigers,
reeled off ve straight points and scored eight
of the nal 10 points to take the second game
25-22.
Game 3 saw the Knights get to the 20-point
barrier rst, but again could not nish off the
Tigers. Hillsdale took a 24-23 lead on a Jami
Maffei kill, but serving on game point, the
Knights hit the ball into the net to tie the game
at 24. A Listmann block for a kill followed a
Hin killed gave the Tigers a 26-24 lead and
put them one game from the match.
Our strength is our serve, Villareal said. I
think the pressure got to them a little bit.
That nal win never materialized. Hillsdale
jumped out to a 5-0 lead to start Game 4 and
eventually built a 21-14 lead on a Maffei kill.
But the Tigers did not go quietly. A tip for a
kill from Terilyn Moe gave the serve back to
Terra Nova and then Hin reeled off three
straight kills. Suddenly, the Tigers were with-
in three, 21-18. The Knights remained calm,
however, as they took advantage of two Terra
Nova errors and two kills for the 25-20 win to
force the deciding fth game.
For us, its not a big deal. Well still be co-
champs, Seavey said.
Both Terra Nova and Hillsdale have one
game remaining. Hillsdale will be right back
on the court today against Capuchino, while
Terra Nova will wrap up the regular season
against Sequoia.
Not that Seavey or the Tigers are all too
thrilled about sharing the title.
One our big program goals is to never set-
tle, Seavey said. Settling is for losers. We
dont do that.

County, about 100 miles south of San
Francisco.
Eric Tarantino suffered injuries to his neck
and arm, but was released from the hospital
Monday.
While the waters off San Francisco are
known to be host to white sharks, attacks are
rare. The last attack, which was not fatal,
occurred Nov. 2, 2005, according to the Shark
Research Committee.
Despite Tuesdays alleged sighting, the con-
test continued all day.
Ten-time world champion Kelly Slater, 39,
won his heat, needing only one more winning
heat during the San Francisco contest to cap-
ture his 11th title.
The contest in San Francisco began
Tuesday, and is the rst professional surng
event in the city in decades.
It is scheduled to begin again at 8 a.m.
Wednesday.

seminals against Merced. Presuming a loss,
CSM would more than likely face Cabrillo in
the third-place game Saturday afternoon. It
will mark the third time this season the two
teams have faced off, with each team winning
once.
Its all about making the final four,
Wright said. Were going to end the season
in style.
Cross country
Both the CSM mens and womens cross
country teams qualified for the Northern
California championship following the Coast
Conference championship last weekend at
Golden Gate Park.
The womens team placed fourth, while the
men nished sixth in the conference.
Its probably our best race all year, said
CSM cross country coach Joe Mangan.
The women were led by freshman
Alejandra Marin, who nished in 10th with a
time of 20:32, a minute behind the winner
from De Anza. Marin led the rst mile and
quarter of the race before she got off track.
The mens squad was paced by Hamza
Fakhri, who nished 23rd with a time of
22:34.
The Nor Cal championship will be held at
the Crystal Springs course in Belmont, which
could be an advantage for the CSM runners,
who use Crystal Springs as their home course.
I think that helps, Mangan said. But
sometimes its a double-edged sword. If you
dont run it the right way itll knock you
around if youre not ready for it.
To qualify for the state cross country champi-
onship, a team has to nish in the top 10 or an
individual nish in the top half of the eld.
Mangan doesnt expect either team to qualify.
Well be happy to have Alejandra and
Hamza qualify, Mangan said.
CSM
Our guys know they can play with any-
body. Thats why they came to our program.
The good news for the Bulldogs, if they
want to look at it that way,
is they have to quickly
turn the page from a disap-
pointing defeat to prepare
for a Butte squad that is
just as good as San
Francisco.
The Roadrunners, who
are ranked No. 6 in the
state and No. 4 in
Northern California, have
suffered only one loss this
season a 44-19 decision to San Francisco
Oct. 15.
But Butte is very similar to San Francisco in
its offensive attack. The Roadrunners are aver-
aging 215 yards rushing and 243 yards pass-
ing per game.
[Theyre] different, Tulloch said. (Butte
uses) more of a power-run game. They have
all kinds of stuff they pull out of the bag.
The Roadrunners are led by running back
Dennis Tromaine, who leads the team in total
offense with 133 yards per game. Hes aver-
aging 104 yards rushing per contest and is
third on the team in receptions with 14 and has
scored a total of 14 touchdowns this year.
This game also represents the Bulldogs
longest road trip of the year and their rst sig-
nicant trip since the season-opening loss to
Fresno. Tulloch said the four-hour bus ride to
the Chico area shouldnt have an effect on the
team.
They just sleep and then watch a movie,
Tulloch said.
What is more important is how the team
plays once it gets off the bus.
Being able to have that SWAT-team men-
tality. Block out all distractions, have every-
one on the same page and kick the door
down, Tulloch said.

Congressman Rush says
NCAA is like Capone, Maa
WASHINGTON A Democratic con-
gressman compared the NCAA to the Maa
over how it controls the lives of student ath-
letes.
I think theyre just one of the most vicious,
most ruthless organizations ever created by
mankind, Illinois Rep. Bobby Rush said of
the NCAA at a congressional forum on col-
lege sports Tuesday. I think you would com-
pare the NCAA to Al Capone and to the
Maa.
Rush made the accusations at the forum
called to look at the impact of back-room
deals, payoffs and scandals in college sports.
The congressman spoke after hearing from a
couple of mothers of former student-athletes
who complained of ill treatment by schools
after their sons suffered injuries.
Congressman Rush obviously doesnt
know the NCAA, Bob Williams, a
spokesman for the organization, said in an
email Tuesday night. The NCAA and its
member institutions provide over $2 billion
per year in scholarships, nancial assistance
and academic support to student-athletes ...
second only to the federal government.
Student-athlete success is our mission.
One mother, Valerie Hardrick, said the
University of Oklahoma refused to grant a
waiver for medical hardship that would allow
her son, Kyle Hardrick, to play basketball at
junior college after transferring from OU.
Prior to Tuesdays forum, Hardricks family
provided to The Associated Press documenta-
tion showing that team doctors diagnosed him
with a torn meniscus in his knee and wrote
down on practice logs that he should be held
out because he was hurt. Hardricks family
said the university has refused to pursue the
waiver unless the family agrees to a settlement
that would prohibit him or his family mem-
bers from enrolling at Oklahoma or any of the
universities governed by its board of regents.
The proposed settlement also would prevent
the Hardricks from ling a lawsuit against the
university.
My insurance does not cover all of Kyles
medical bills, an emotional Valerie Hardrick
said. The University of Oklahoma refused to
pay for Kyles surgery, his rehab, and his med-
ication. The university actions also allowed
Kyle to be released without appropriate med-
ical treatment before consulting his original
surgeon.
Kyle Hardrick, a forward who played a total
of 6 minutes during his two seasons with the
Sooners, said he has since transferred to a
community college in Kansas but isnt able to
play without the waiver.
Jeff Capel, Hardricks coach at OU, wrote a
letter on behalf of Hardrick in September say-
ing a medical hardship waiver is justied in
his case. Capel was red after last season and
is now an assistant coach at Duke.
In response to phone and email messages
left for Oklahoma athletic director Joe
Castiglione, the university issued a statement
late Tuesday night saying it had informed the
Hardricks it would facilitate the opportunity
for the family to seek a hardship waiver and
asserting it had acted responsibly in this mat-
ter.
Oklahoma pointed out that any NCAA
institution where Hardrick would transfer
could also apply for a transfer. However, he
has instead transferred to the junior college
level, which is not governed by the NCAA.
Oklahomas statement indicated that athlet-
ic ofcials could not discuss Hardricks case
in detail because of student privacy guide-
lines.
The NCAA requires schools to certify that
an athlete has insurance coverage for athleti-
cally-related injuries, up to the deductible of
the NCAA Catastrophic Injury Insurance
Program (currently $90,000). The insurance
coverage can be offered by the school, a par-
ent or a personal policy of the athlete.
Two NBA players also participated in the
forum, Thaddeus Young of the Philadelphia
76ers and Shane Battier, a free agent who last
played with the Memphis Grizzlies.
Young, who went pro after one year at
Georgia Tech, presented one of the few posi-
tive accounts of college sports at the forum.
Georgia Tech is a tremendously hard and
difcult school, so they denitely put more
time into academics than basketball, he said.
The teachers they dont care if youre a
student-athlete, they just care about student.
Battier described a college regimen at Duke
that included a workout at 6:30 a.m., followed
by classes, practice between 4 and 7:30 p.m.,
and wrapping up schoolwork at 11:30 or mid-
night.
It is a full-time job, he said.
Battier called the NCAAs decision last
week to allow conferences to provide student-
athletes up to $2,000 in spending money a
great start.
Is that a game-changer? No. What is a
game-changer? A game-changer is guarantee-
ing four-year scholarships. Thats a game-
changer, Battier said.

Thats why I have to take a great look at
the player. Its been a while.
He apparently liked what he saw
because the Raiders signed him.
Houshmandzadeh gives Oakland a veter-
an receiver on a unit that is mostly young
and unproven.
Third-year player Darrius Heyward-
Bey leads the team with 27 catches for
434 yards, but no other wide receiver has
more than 15 catches so far this season.
Speedster Jacoby Ford has been slowed
by various injuries, rookie Denarius
Moore had a fast start before leveling
off, veteran Derek Hagan has one catch
in the past three weeks, Louis Murphy
has no catches in his two games and
Chaz Schilens has caught more than two
passes just once all season and missed
the most recent game with a hamstring
injury.
Its not immediately clear how quickly
Houshmandzadeh can step in and con-
tribute but his rapport with Palmer and
knowledge of what Jackson likes to do
should help speed the transition. The
Raiders were off Tuesday before resum-
ing practice Wednesday to prepare for
this weekends home game against
Denver.
Hes a player. That might be a nice t
right there, cornerback Stanford Routt
said Monday when told that
Houshmandzadeh was working out with
the team. Our receivers are doing real
good right now, in my opinion, with the
explosiveness and all the young guys
that we got. There are so many, I cant
even name them all. Just adding one
more play-maker to the puzzle, I dont
see how that can do anything but make
us even better.

Police launch formal probe
into Terry racism claim
LONDON Police have begun an
investigation into allegations that Chelsea
and England captain John Terry taunted an
opponent with a racial slur.
Terry has been accused of directing a
racial slur at Queens Park Rangers defend-
er Anton Ferdinand during Chelseas 1-0
Premier League loss on Oct. 23, with
video of the incident being posted on the
Internet after the match.
The Metropolitan Police assessed the
incident after a complaint by a member of
the public last week and has decided it
warrants a full investigation.
Police were notied of an incident on
Sunday October 23 involving alleged
racial abuse, police said in a statement.
This is currently being investigated by
ofcers from Hammersmith and Fulham.
The Football Association, which is
investigating the captain of its national
team seven months before the start of the
European Championship, will be careful
not to hinder the police probe.
The Metropolitan Police has contacted
the FA to make us further aware of their
investigation into the matter, English soc-
cers governing body said in a statement.

WASHINGTON Republican presidential
candidate Herman Cain denied on Tuesday
that hes changing his story as he struggles to
contain the fallout from sexual harassment
allegations that could threaten his recently
surging campaign. He also suggested his race
could be a factor in the storm.
The White House contenders contradictory
explanations over two days have raised ques-
tions about details of the allegations from back
in the 1990s and about his current ability to
manage a crisis in the national spotlight. The
accusations, relating to his time as head of the
National Restaurant Association, have sur-
faced just as hes risen in national polls in the
GOP nomination ght two months before the
leadoff Iowa caucuses.
He said Tuesday night on Fox News that he
believes there are some Democrats who want
him defeated because hes an unconventional
candidate achieving some unexpected,
unconventional results, and there could be
some on the right who do not want to see me
because I am not the establishment candidate.
Cain, who is black, said he believes race is
also involved but we dont have any evidence
to support it. He added: Relative to the left,
I believe that race is a bigger driving factor. I
dont think its a driving factor on the right.
A lawyer for one woman who complained
about Cains behavior told The Washington
Post on Tuesday she wants to talk publicly
about it. According to that report, Joel P.
Bennett, a Washington lawyer who specializes
in employment cases, said he asked the
National Restaurant Association to waive his
clients condentiality so she can respond to
Cains claims that the complaints were total-
ly baseless and totally false. A spokeswoman

Bennett told the Associated Press he would

Cain tries to contain fallout from allegations

WASHINGTON For a world already
weary of weather catastrophes, the latest
warning from top climate scientists paints a
grim future: More oods, more heat waves,
more droughts and greater costs to deal with
them.
A draft summary of an international scien-
tic report obtained by the Associated Press
says the extremes caused by global warming
could eventually grow so severe that some
locations become increasingly marginal as
places to live.
The report from the Nobel Prize-winning
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change
marks a change in climate science, from
focusing on subtle shifts in average tempera-
tures to concentrating on the harder-to-ana-
lyze freak events that grab headlines, hurt
economies and kill people.
The extremes are a really noticeable aspect
of climate change, said Jerry Meehl, senior
scientist at the National Center for
Atmospheric Research. I think people realize
that the extremes are where we are going to
see a lot of the impacts of climate change.
The nal version of the report from a panel
of leading climate scientists will be issued in
a few weeks, after a meeting in Uganda. The
draft says there is at least a 2-in-3 probability
that climate extremes have already worsened
because of man-made greenhouse gases.
The most recent bizarre weather extreme,
the pre-Halloween snowstorm that crippled
parts of the Northeast last weekend, cannot be
blamed on climate change and probably isnt
the type of storm that will increase with glob-
al warming, according to four meteorologists
and climate scientists.
Experts on extreme storms have focused
more closely on the increasing number of
super-heavy rainstorms, not snow, NASA cli-
mate scientist Gavin Schmidt said.
By the end of the century, the intense, sin-
gle-day rainstorms that typically happen once
every 20 years will probably happen about
twice a decade, the report said.
The opposite type of disaster a drought
such as the stubbornly long dry spell gripping
Texas and parts of the Southwest could
also happen more often as the world warms,
said Schmidt and Meehl, who reviewed part
of the climate panel report.
Studies have not yet specically tied global
warming to the continuing drought, but it is
consistent with computer models that indicate
current climate trends will worsen existing
droughts, Meehl said. Scientically connect-
ing a weather disaster with global warming is
a complicated and time-consuming task that
can take more than a year and involve lots of
computer calculations.

Which came rst, the cupcake or the
macaron? Or did pie beat them in the
race to be the trendy treat of the
moment?
Maybe it doesnt matter. Because the
hot sweet now is the whoopie pie, those
delicious oversized cake-like cookies
sandwiching a uffy, sugary lling.
While chocolate cookies with vanilla
frosting are traditional, whoopie pies
come in just as many wild avor combi-
nations as cupcakes, macarons and pies.
For our fall whoopie pie, we looked to
three favorite cold weather avors
gingerbread, pumpkin and pecan pie.
Gingerbread lends itself perfectly to the
shell of a whoopie pie. It is, after all, still
cake. And pumpkin marries so beautiful-
ly with the spices of gingerbread that we
couldnt leave it out.
But for the lling, we wanted to get
away from traditional fluffy vanilla
frosting. So we opted for a praline cream
cheese lling and rolled the edges in
toasted chopped pecans for a treat thats
reminiscent of a creamy pecan pie.

Whoopie pies: Latest trendy treat
Izard turns Top Chef
into big opportunity
By Michele Kayal
In the beginning there was Scylla, a cozy, quiet neighbor-
hood restaurant where Stephanie Izard turned out reliable
Mediterranean seafood in a living room atmosphere. Her dad
made the hostess stand. Her then-boyfriends mom made the
drapes. She bought the house with a loan and some money
from her late grandfather.
We didnt work with a designer and things like that, says
the 34-year-old Chicago chef. We just did it ourselves.
Fast forward to Girl and the Goat, Izards West Loop restau-
rant that rocks charred wood walls and a non-stop party thats
anything but sedate.
Izard has abandoned the politesse of bouillabaisse and
seared diver scallops for Fergus-Henderson-meets-Zak
Pelaccio dishes such as goat belly cont and pan-fried duck
tongue with pickled watermelon rind. And no offense to
Grandpa, but The Goats backers are Chicagos most promi-
nent restaurateurs, with three of the four chefs in the roster
including Izard named best new chef by Food and Wine
magazine.
In the year since it opened, Girl and the Goat already has
been nominated for a James Beard award and won accolades
from critics across the country.
Girl and the Goat is her coming out party, says Heather
Shouse, a Chicago-based food writer and Izards co-author on
her new cookbook, Girl in the Kitchen. Its really in-your-
face, full-frontal aggressive food. Its really fun, its really
loud, it has a lot of personality.
Just like Izard.
But it wasnt always that way. Shy as a child, Izard would tag
along with older sister Stacey, who remembers being the ring
leader for their adventures in the woods and the times they
turned their living room into a restaurant, putting the coffee

N
ovember is a tough
month. I mean, weve
barely recovered from our
Halloween sugar shock and already
were gearing up for an all-day eat-
off of turkey and trimmings.
And no matter how stuffed we
feel at the end of Thanksgiving din-
ner, we still feel compelled to wrap
up the festivities with the traditional
slice of pumpkin pie.
Im right there with you. I love
pumpkin pie, especially covered
with a dollop or two of real
whipped cream. Trouble is, that one
slice packs tons of extra fat and
calories you dont need on top of
everything else youve already
enjoyed. A typical slice of pumpkin
pie can have nearly 400 calories
and more than 23 grams of fat.
Its hard to feel thankful for those
numbers.
So I decided to come up with a
healthier version of pumpkin pie.
Its so good and so much lighter
than traditional versions, you might
even get away with eating two
slices. Ready for the numbers? It
has just 100 calories and less than 1
gram of fat per slice.
My version uses just a few
healthy substitutions, and youll be
surprised at how great they taste.
Stevia (a no-calorie natural sweet-
ener), agave syrup and coconut nec-
tar stand in for sugar. Nonfat
Greek-style yogurt subs for whole
milk. And gelatin thickens the pie
lling and the whipped cream.
The bulk of the calories and fat in
pies comes from the crust, usually
thanks to ample amounts of butter
or shortening. Here, Ive used
sheets of phyllo dough stacked on
top of one another. This eliminates
most of the fat that goes into a pie.
Plus, it makes a great crispy,
crunchy crust.
About the whipped cream
gelatin mixed with fat-free milk,
stevia and coconut nectar helps the
mixture truly whip. Theres zero
fat, and very few calories, so feel
free to pile mounds of my whipped
cream on your pie. Or run your n-
ger through the whipped cream as
you make it. And lick the beaters!
If you just make simple, low-
calorie swaps like these during the
season, you shouldnt have a prob-
lem enjoying your favorite holiday
foods. Since I started cooking like
this, I havent had a problem
myself, and Ive even lost a few
pounds over
the holidays.
Making this
pie is a cinch
too, so resist
the urge to
purchase one
of those
frozen pump-
kin pies.
Simply make
the phyllo
crust, bake it,
ll it with the
pumpkin mix-
ture, then chill
the pie.
Except for the crust, this is no-bake
pie. Excuse the cliche, but it is truly
easy as pie.
PUMPKIN PIE
WITH WHIPPED CREAM
Start to nish: 45 minutes (plus 4
hours chilling)
Servings: 10
For the pie:
Butter-avored cooking spray
6 sheets (14-by-9-inch sheets)
frozen phyllo dough, thawed
1/4 cup cold water
1 envelope unavored gelatin
powder
2 3/4 cups canned pumpkin (one-
and-a-half 15-ounce cans)
1 cup fat-free plain Greek-style
yogurt
1/4 cup agave syrup
4 packets stevia sweetener pow-
der
1 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie
spice
1/8 teaspoon salt
For the whipped cream:
1 cup fat-free milk, divided
1 1/8 teaspoons unavored gela-
tin powder
1/2 tablespoon coconut nectar
3 packets stevia sweetener pow-
der
1 vanilla bean, split
Heat the oven to 350 F. Coat a 9-
inch pie dish with the cooking
spray.
Unroll the phyllo dough, then
cover with plastic wrap while you
work. Lay 1 sheet of the phyllo on
the counter. Lightly mist the phyllo
with cooking spray. Set a second
sheet of phyllo over the rst, rotat-
ing it slightly. Mist the second sheet
of phyllo, then repeating this
process with remaining phyllo
sheets, rotating each time a sheet is
added. Mist the nal sheet of phyl-
lo.
Use a knife to carefully trim the
stack of phyllo into a 12-inch cir-
cle. Discard the scraps. Carefully
lift the stack and set into the pre-
pared pie dish, gently pressing the
phyllo against the bottom and sides
of the dish.
Bake the phyllo crust for 10 to 12
minutes, or until it is lightly
browned and crisp. Set aside to
cool while preparing the lling.
In a small saucepan, combine the
cold water and envelope of gelatin.
Set aside for 5 minutes.
Set the saucepan over medium
and heat, stirring constantly, until
the gelatin is dissolved. Set aside to
cool slightly.
In a large bowl, stir together the
pumpkin, yogurt, agave, 4 packets
of the stevia, the pumpkin pie spice,
vanilla extract and salt. Stir in the
gelatin mixture, mixing well. Pour
the pie lling into the cooled phyllo
crust. Chill in the refrigerator for 4
to 6 hours before serving.
When ready to serve, prepare the
whipped cream. In a small bowl,
combine 2 tablespoons of the milk
and the gelatin. Set aside for 5 min-
utes.
In a small saucepan over medi-
um, combine the remaining milk,
coconut nectar and 3 packets of ste-
via. With the tip of a small knife,
slice open the vanilla bean, then
scrape the seeds into the pot.
Discard the vanilla pod. Bring the
mixture to a simmer, stirring to dis-
solve the nectar. Add the gelatin
mixture to the hot milk and whisk
to dissolve. Pour the mixture into a
medium stainless steel bowl or into
the bowl of a stand mixer.
Place a larger bowl half-lled
with ice water beneath the bowl of
milk mixture (if using a stand
mixer, put small zip-close bags of
ice around the bottom of the mixer
bowl). Beat the milk mixture with
the whisk attachment on high for 8
to 10 minutes, or until the mixture
is thickened to a whipped cream
consistency. The volume of the
mixture will grow as it cools and
whips.
To serve, cut the pie into 10
wedges. Spoon 2 tablespoons of the
whipped cream over each pie
wedge.

ALBANY, N.Y. When Billy Joel sang
about a bottle of white, a bottle of red 40
years ago, the Long Island native probably
wasnt in a New York state of mind.
But the wine universe is growing and chang-
ing, and today New York regularly tangles
with Washington state in a two-coast tussle to
maintain the No. 2 spot in behind California
for domestic wine production.
And its not just about quantity. The Empire
State is getting a reputation as a quality maker
of Long Island white, Hudson Valley red and
hundreds of smaller regional wines besides
the traditional Finger Lakes Rieslings that
gained prominence over the past decade.
Now an unprecedented promotion by the
industry has launched to use the holidays to
introduce more New Yorkers to their home-
grown wines. Its a soft-sell effort that costs
just $25,000, mostly to put posters in liquor
stores and restaurants, that state ofcials hope
will also boost sagging revenues in a state that
faces a $2 billion decit next year.
Meanwhile, wine sellers are organizing
some price cuts and promotions they describe
as bottle by bottle, customer by customer,
and the Last Store on Main Street coalition is
making direct pitches to liquor store owners
and wineries.
New York has been in the business of taxing
and promoting wine before and since
Prohibition. But the wine industry says more
is needed now after three years of state budg-
et cuts for promotion, increasing competition
and the industrys inability to afford a big pro-
motional blitz of its own.
The National Association of American
Wineries in its most current data shows New
York at No. 2 as of 2009, with 28.5 million
gallons produced compared to 25 million by
Washington. But industry experts say
Washington is gaining fast and may overtake
New York when the gures are updated.
Both states lag far behind California and its
annual output of more than 566 million gal-
lons.
New Yorks grape production for wine an
industry that employs some 5,000 people is
worth about $20.5 million a year, though the
industry says that gure is well over $1 billion
from growing to retail sale.
A new law this year cuts red tape for vint-
ners allowing them to open more satellite
stores that can fuel a growing tourism trade.
Meanwhile, a bipartisan bill with strong sup-
port would create a state wine council to pro-
mote sales and provide funding for bigger pro-
motions through an existing wine tax. Gov.
Andrew Cuomo has hinted that a state-funded
promotion also is planned.
In the scope of things, the greatness and
strength of our wine industry is a story that has
not been told, Cuomo said in a recent town
hall online chat.
New Yorks challenges arent all domestic.
Low-cost wines from Australia and other
countries also cut into the states market share.
The boutique nature of New Yorks wine
industry made up of many small vintners
means wines cost more compared to the
volume savings of big California and foreign
producers. New Yorks weather also allows for
only a single, shorter growing season than
warmer climes, providing less exibility for
volume pricing.
The three-month campaign is targeting the
states 2,800 liquor stores that sell wine.
Vintners hope to reach 50,000 restaurants
from October through December.
New York has no presence in the No. 1
market, New York City, in promoting wines,
but Chile, France, Oregon and Washington all
have presence in New York City, said
Michael McKeon, spokesman for The Last
Store on Main Street, made up of wine sellers,
wineries, liquor store owners, unions and dis-
tributors. California wines are a given in New
York City restaurants and dinner tables.
Pop a cork with a New York state of mind
New Yorks grape production for wine an industry that employs some 5,000 people is
worth about $20.5 million a year, though the industry says that gure is well over $1 billion
from growing to retail sale.

table on blocks for the bar and setting
numerous card tables for the imaginary
patrons. I was louder and outgoing
and she was kind of with me, says
Stacey Izard.
Then came Bravos Top Chef.
Shortly after Izard sold Scylla in 2007,
out of sheer exhaustion, producers from
the hit show approached her about being
on it. She wooed the audience with her
good nature, easy smile and girl-next-
door appeal. She oored the judges with
bold, unlikely avors her nal dish
combined mushrooms, pistachios and
blackberries and locked out the com-
petition, becoming the rst and still
the only woman ever to win Top
Chef.
It really brought her into her own,
Stacey says. The show gave her a
chance to be in the spotlight and she t
right in.
Shy maybe, but Izard has never been
retiring. After Top Chef, she could
have let her 15 minutes of fame evapo-
rate into the pop culture landscape.
Instead, she embraced her inner extro-
vert, turning her victory into Chicagos
hottest restaurant, with a sister joint
Little Goat set to open in the spring.
Shes parlayed her celebrity into cook-
book success and a chance to raise
money for hungry children, conversa-
tions about a television show, and a pos-
sible line of cookware.
Im just a really driven person, Izard
says. Going on Top Chef presented a
lot of doors and you can choose to open
them or not.
But even when doors are closed, Izard
simply busts through them. Much of her
dizzying success has come from
embracing the unexpected and taking
large, terrifying risks the way someone
else might order a cappuccino. Ten
years ago, she spent the weekend with
friends in Chicago, then called home to
Scottsdale, Az., on Monday morning to
have her stuff shipped to her. She
opened Scylla almost on a dare, quitting
her job at what then was a top Chicago
bistro right after a fellow line cook sug-
gested she should have her own restau-
rant.
I dont think about things too much,
she says. I just go for them.
If it sounds like a Nike ad, maybe its
because Izard is a born competitor. A
swimmer from the age of 3, she was all
about 5 a.m. practice and taking on
opponents across the country. She
placed rst in the national rankings for
the mile, but quit competing at 16
because she lost to herself.
I set myself a certain goal and missed
it by a tenth-of-a-second, she says.
Whats made me successful is that Im
always pushing myself to be the best that
I can.
At Jean-George Vongerichtens Vong,
her rst job in Chicago, Izard was put on
garde manger (read as making salads),
but fought her way to the stove.
They always put the girls in garde
manger or pastry, says Shouse, who
worked with Izard at Vong before
becoming a writer. She was given that
role in a restaurant that was lled with
testosterone and she fought her way over
to the hot line and into places that were
typically male-dominated.
Today, Izard runs with a group of
chefs occupying the West Loop that
Shouse calls a brain trust the spawn
of old guard Chicago chefs like Charlie
Trotter and Rick Bayless. All hovering
around the age of 35, the young-uns are
creating a cuisine that is edgier, funkier,
less expensive, but just as luxurious.
Izard is among the many local chefs
experimenting with whole animal dish-
es, presenting parts and pieces with
pranksterish glee. For Valentines Day,
Izard served skewered lamb heart with
spiced gs. And one of the best loved
dishes on her menu is wood oven roast-
ed pig face served with a fried egg.
Its a crispy porky goodness, Izard
says. We like to call it breakfast on
crack.
Izards food today is as inventive as it
once was safe. In her search for the
biggest, boldest avors, she mixes and
matches cultures in dishes like escargot
with tamarind and miso, amberjack
crudo with crisp pork bellies and Latin
American chilies, and goat meat chorizo
with Serbian pepper relish.
We look to partner with people that
have a signature voice, says Kevin
Boehm, co-founder of the Boka
Restaurant group, the Goats backer.

For New Yorkers, the industrys promotion will include
Fall in Love with New York State Wines posters hoping
to piggyback on the highly successful I (heart) NY ad cam-
paign and will ask liquor stores and restaurants to spread
the word as the holidays approach. This time of year, liquor
store sales soar as many customers including many who
otherwise seldom buy wine are looking for recommenda-
tions.
New York has some very high quality wines, the best of
New York wines can stand proud, said Joe Czerwinsk, tasting
director and senior editor at Wine Enthusiast Magazine. He
cites Finger Lakes rieslings as the most well-known.
But I still think New York has a lot to do in building recog-
nition for its product, he said.
Similar efforts helped boost Virginias wine industry recent-
ly, where production increased 37 percent from 2008 to 2009,
according to industry reports.
The campaign connects retailers with wineries for regional
promotions and hopes to succeed where past promotions
failed to create much of a buzz. Helped by the Last Store
coalition to connect with retailers, a Finger Lakes vintner
already has gotten a foot in the Buffalo market after years of
failing, despite an eye-catching name aimed at a broad mar-
ket.
If you give people a chance, they can appreciate New York
wines for what they are and some are actually superior, said
Michael Lucent, who with his wife, Donna, owns the
Pompous Ass Winery near Seneca Lake. It has four full-time
employees and 14 part-timers.
As for the name? They arent exactly targeting the stuffy
stereotype of old wine sippers.
Were all about a good time, Michael Lucent said. We
love wine, but were not too pretentious about it.

JERUSALEM Israel has author-
ized its military to take all necessary
steps to stop rocket re from Gaza,
including a ground operation, an Israeli
military ofcial said Tuesday, as Egypt
worked on a truce and said Israel had
agreed to delay stepping up its response.
The Israeli government decision
stopped well short of ordering tanks to
roll into Gaza, and it appeared unlikely
that would happen, as rocket re all but
stopped over the past day. The ofcial
said the decision authorized the military
to act in accordance with the severity of
Palestinian attacks, meaning that a
ground offensive would be ordered only
after massive rocket re.
The Israeli ofcial spoke on condition
of anonymity because no statement was
made.
Egypts ambassador to the Palestinian
Authority said Tuesday that Egypt
obtained an Israeli pledge to hold its re
while efforts were under way to per-
suade Palestinian militants to stop the
rocket barrages.
This is the third case of Egyptian
diplomatic involvement with Israel over
the last month, after two prisoner
exchanges. Israel has been concerned
that Egypts new rulers might toughen
their line on Israel in accordance with
widespread public dislike of the Jewish
state despite a 1979 peace treaty. Egypts
diplomatic activity might calm those
concerns.
The sudden spike in violence began
when militants in Gaza started ring
salvos at Israel late last week, and Israeli
retaliated with airstrikes. One Israeli
civilian and at least 10 Palestinian mili-
tants were killed in the worst violence on
that front in months.
The confrontation threatened to spiral
into a larger conict, and Egypt stepped
in to try to restore calm.
In the past few hours, Egypt saved
Gaza from severe destruction and suc-
ceeded in securing Israeli restraint to
give Egyptians time to reach a cease-re
agreement with Palestinian factions,
Egypts ambassador to the Palestinian
Authority, Yasser Othman, told the
Associated Press Tuesday.
On Monday, Netanyahu warned from
the podium of the Israeli parliament that
Israel would operate vigorously and
resolutely against those who would
threaten its security.
A security philosophy cannot rely on
defense alone, Netanyahu said. It must
also include offensive capabilities, the
very foundation of deterrence.
The military said there have been no
Israeli airstrikes since around midnight
Monday. Two rockets were red from
Gaza during that time. The relative calm
prevailed through Tuesday afternoon.
The rocket attacks have disrupted life
in southern Israel, forcing schools to
close.

Syria plants land mines on Lebanese border
SERHANIYEH, Lebanon Syria has planted land mines
along parts of its border with Lebanon, further sealing itself off
from the world and showing just how deeply shaken Bashar
Assads regime has become since an uprising began nearly
eight months ago.
Although Assads hold on power is rm, the 46-year-old eye
doctor is taking increasingly desperate measures to safeguard
his grip on the country of 22 million people at the heart of the
Arab world. A Syrian ofcial conrmed to the Associated
Press that troops were laying the mines, saying they were
aimed at stopping weapons smuggling into the country during
the uprising.
Syria has undertaken many measures to control the borders,
including planting mines, a Syrian ofcial familiar with gov-
ernment strategy told the Associated Press, speaking on condi-
tion of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the matter.
Witnesses on the Lebanese side also told the AP they have seen
Syrian soldiers planting the mines in recent days.
In Thailand, a battle royal with water
BANGKOK As Thailands ailing king surveys the
calamitous scene from his 16th oor hospital window, the 83-

virtually obsessed, him most of his life: water.

Bangkok and overowing the banks of the Menam Chao
Phraya, the River of Kings, that rushes right past Siriraj
Hospital, where he has lived wheelchair-bound for the past two
years.
The ood, the worst in half a century, is something King
Bhumibol Adulyadej has tried harder than perhaps anyone to
prevent. He has sounded alarm bells not always heeded
against overdevelopment and come up with ideas that have
mitigated the damage from the immense annual surges and
retreats of monsoon-spawned water.

to leaders in emerging and growing
industries, like green tech and biotech.
He also pushed the board to discuss
whether the county should have a specif-
ic economic development point person
on staff. Supervisor Don Horsley sug-
gested concentrating coastside efforts at
Pillar Point or with land owned by the
Harbor District. He recalled helping the
company BioCardia when it had parking
challenges in San Carlos.
Some of the things we can do for
them locally is pretty mundane, he said.
The supervisors want to move beyond
talking about the need for economic
development and establish concrete
plans to put it into action, especially
ideas such as simply creating jobs.
We all know business is the one who
creates the jobs and at the margins we
may play a role but that the countys
inuence is minimal, Boesch said.
Instead, Boesch and the board by turns
discussed how to even dene economic
development. Some of the possible
opportunities thrown out included so-
called ecotourism the pumpkin farms
on the coast for example and health
care reform in 2014.
Supervisor Adrienne Tissier has been
very vocal about her desire to generate
funds while simultaneously making
plans for big-ticket items like construc-
tion of a new jail. The public doesnt
want to see the county wringing its
hands over the budget but not also acting
to improve its nances, she said.
Anne LeClair, president and CEO of
the San Mateo County Convention and
Visitors Bureau, told the board it might
consider a sports complex and ease any
hurdles to bring movie productions like
the Mavericks lm currently under way.
Filming brings in $50,000 per day for
the county, she said.
Boesch will now bring back to the
board a short list of high priorities, a
work plan, a timeline and a budget. The
board is also interested in having at least
one more economic meeting to jump off
from yesterdays beginnings and hear
from the countys partners.
Heading into the study session,
Boesch offered development possibili-
ties ranging from ensuring the county
procurement practices support local
business to addressing factors that stunt
economic growth like inadequate infra-
structure or lack of affordable workforce
housing.
Tissier and Supervisor Rose Jacobs
Gibson added the future of Camp Kemp,
the all-girls juvenile camp closed for
budgetary reasons, that they said could
be used in other ways. The board was
very excited about ways to benet from
the upcoming Americas Cup and U.S.
Open sporting events and Tissier sug-
gested using large screens in public
places to broadcast them.
County property drew a large amount
of discussion particularly as the county
is asset rich and cash poor, Tissier
said.
Although its not clear if the idea is
solid, she suggested at least looking at
selling or leasing 455 County Center
rather than retrotting and repopulating
the building across from the Hall of
Justice. She and Pine also focused on the
San Mateo Event Center.
Chris Carpenter, general manager of
the center, said it could be transformed
into more of a destination center for
conventions and groups by adding
restaurants, more meeting space and
even a motel.
The timing is best right now because
of Bay Meadows, Carpenter said, say-
ing the development of the former race
facility is being fast-tracked.
Other county assets include the motor
pool, the election and public safety facil-
ities on Tower Road, the San Mateo
Medical Center and Coyote Point.
Any land near downtown Redwood
City is considered particularly lucrative
as it continues drawing new business
hungry for office space and City
Manager Bob Bell said the city is eager
to work together.
Boesch said the county may also wish
to look at zoning, freeing up land cur-
rently locked into residential. Very little
of the unincorporated area is zoned for
commercial or industrial uses, Boesch
said.

competition against Columbus.
Genentech alleges the incident stopped
work and sent numerous employees to
seek medical attention which resulted in
nancial losses for the biotech company.
Columbus CEO Tim Fallon explained
the lawsuit was a technicality led to
complete a confidential settlement
process reached between the two busi-
nesses.
The leak was reported at about 5:45
a.m. Aug. 28, 2009 and caused several
roads to be closed until about 10:40 a.m.
Employees were allowed to enter the
meat processing plant closer to 11 a.m.
Exposure to ammonia, which affects the
respiratory system, hospitalized a num-
ber of people including a bus driver who
collapsed, according to the lawsuit
which added that more than 30 people
sought treatment or were hospitalized.
Columbus refrigeration system con-
tained more than 500 pounds of ammo-
nia, a colorless gas at room temperature
that is hazardous. As a result of the leak,
much of the area, including areas around
Genentech, were closed down for the
day affect(ing) more than 54 Genentech
buildings, approximately 10,000
Genentech employees and 700 children
normally cared for at several Genentech
daycare facilities, according to the law-
suit. Closing the campus caused nan-
cial losses, according to the lawsuit.
In addition, Genentech said 217
pounds of ammonia was also released
Feb. 17, 2009 from the same facility
an incident of which Genentech was not
notied.
In January, a civil judgment was hand-
ed down by the Consumer and
Environmental Unit of the District
Attorneys Office fining Columbus
$850,000 for the August incident.
According to the complaint, the company
failed to follow Californias Accidental
Release Prevention, known as CalARP,
regulations. As a result, the company was
ned, must comply with environmental
protection laws and needs to set up sen-
sors to detect the accidental release of
ammonia along with alarms and a tele-
phone emergency notication system to
warn employees and neighbors.
Columbus South San Francisco loca-
tions had a tough year in 2009. On July
23, 2009, a building at 465 Chabot Road,
less than a mile from the 493 Forbes
Blvd. location, caught re around 2 a.m.
The blaze consumed the salami plant,
resulting in lost jobs and the destruction
of 200,000 pounds of deli meat.
Columbus has made a number of
changes since 2009. A new facility was
opened in Hayward earlier this year to
replace the one damaged in the re.
Fallon described the new facility as
being more efcient and improved in
terms of food safety. In addition, an in-
house cooling system to house the
ammonia is under construction. Fallon
estimated it would be complete by the
end of this year.
SUIT
boring apartment buildings. The current
owners, Steve Cabrera and Pat Osborn,
bought the property in 1991 and convert-
ed it into the Coxhead House bed and
breakfast in 1997.
After running the Coxhead House for
nearly 15 years, the married couple is
ready to retire as innkeepers and turn
over the national historic landmark to
someone else.
It is one of the only private residences
in the county with the national historic
landmark designation.
Cabrera is not sure whether the prop-
ertys new owners will maintain it as a
bed and breakfast but would be willing
to help out if they do.
It is a demanding job, though.
It is a 24/7 job. It is a lot of work,
said Cabrera, who cooks meals daily for
his guests.
They are not selling due to lack of
business, though, as the $275 a night
rooms are routinely booked up.
Weve been doing it for 15 years. It is
time to turn it over to someone else, he
said. We are getting old.
The inn draws guests from around the
world, including some who have stayed
at the bed and breakfast so many times,
Cabrera and his wife now call them
friends.
We had one business traveler stay
with us once a month for six or seven
years. We became good friends, said
Cabrera, who is an artist and sculptor.
Coxhead himself resided in the home
until 1924, although his wife had died
years earlier while giving birth.
Following the Coxheads, nationally
known art historians Arthur Pope and his
wife, Phyllis Ackerman, resided in the
home until 1943. The Laughlin family
was the owner until 1951.
Marian and James Hemingway,
founders of the San Mateo Unitarian
Church, resided in Coxhead House for
the next 40 years. The Unitarian Church
actually met in the homes living room
until a permanent building was pur-
chased.
Cabrera knows the homes history
well and has even painted some of
Coxheads greatest architectural
achievements on canvas, featured on
walls throughout the bed and breakfast.
The Coxhead House has been listed
for sale by Scott Syme of Coldwell
Banker in Burlingame. The asking price
is just less than $1.6 million.
Syme compared the home to a muse-
um, considering its architectural
stylings.
When visitors walk into the Coxhead
House ... theyre swept away by the
design so much that they dont want to
sit down; they want to walk around and
see the next room and the next room
after that, taking it all in, Syme said.
As the owners open up the home to
real estate brokers this week, they are in
the process of swapping out some of its
88 windows, each featuring delicate
leaded glass.
The Coxhead House was built by ship-
wrights, Cabrera said, and you can see
so in the craftmanship.
While it is on the market, the Coxhead
House is still accepting guests.

HISTORY
Wednesday, nov. 2, 2011
sCoRPIo (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- It might be smart to
yield a little on some minor issues in order to avoid
locking horns with a family member over a big mat-
ter. Give a little to get quite a bit.
saGITTaRIUs (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Because of your
reluctance to be forthright about what is bothering
you, many of your companions will fnd you diffcult
to understand and tolerate. Loosen up a bit.
CaPRICoRn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Frivolous activities
that dont make any kind of contribution to your ma-
terial or social well-being shouldnt be given a whole
lot of your time. Dont make trouble for yourself.
aQUaRIUs (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Your self-image and
reputation could suffer greatly if you fail to keep
your temper in check, especially when youre around
people you like and respect. Control your ire and you
control your image.
PIsCes (Feb. 20-March 20) -- If you insist upon
dwelling on negatives, youll elude all possibility of
having any success. Its important to strive to be a
positive thinker as much and as often as you can.
aRIes (March 21-April 19) -- Keep your snoot out of
a friends business if you see that she or he is unwill-
ing to share something with you. Everyone is entitled
to privacy when they feel its warranted.
TaURUs (April 20-May 20) -- Youre in for a big
surprise if you think infexibility will enhance your
negotiating skills. All it will do is cause people to turn
their backs on you.
GeMInI (May 21-June 20) -- Theres nothing to be
gained by spreading yourself too thin where your work
is concerned. It will gain you a lot of needless frustra-
tion when you cant complete all that you want to.
CanCeR (June 21-July 22) -- Trying to con a co-
worker into doing a job your way will turn into a
frustrating experience. If you want things done well,
let your colleague call the shots.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Unless you think your way
through every step of the day, your gains will be
slimmer than a fashion model. If you do things in a
haphazard manner, your fragile arrangements will
crumble like a misbegotten cookie.
vIRGo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You had better stay
focused on your endeavors because if you dont,
chances are you will make a serious mistake that
could require a total, and very expensive, makeover.
LIBRa (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- If you intend to go win-
dow-shopping at the mall, youd be smart to leave
your credit cards at home. Your resolve to maintain
your budget will be weaker than a wet noodle.

speed rail yesterday, saying its business plan
lays the foundation for a 21st century trans-
portation system.
He called the authoritys updated business
plan solid.
But state Sen. Doug LaMalfa, R-Richvale,
pledged to introduce legislation yesterday to
return the high-speed rail project to the ballot
in light of soaring costs.
In three years, weve seen the cost of this
project increase 300 percent from what voters
were told in 2008, LaMalfa wrote in a state-
ment. Californians deserve honesty from
their government and I will introduce legisla-
tion allowing them to finally make an
informed choice that the High-Speed Rail
Authority has thus far denied them.
But not all Republicans are following the
party line on the project.
State Sen. Bob Huff, R-Diamond Bar, said
yesterday that high-speed rail should be a part
of the states future transportation needs.
High-speed rail is poised to ll a signi-
cant part of this need but we must proceed
with a good business plan built of accurate
data and assumptions. This draft business plan
appears to be a positive step in that direction
to help frame the larger discussion about
high-speed rail viability, Huff wrote in a
statement.
Locally, state Sen. Joe Simitian, D-Palo
Alto, called the updated business plan a
mixed bag.
A blended system approach for the
Peninsula is adopted in the new business plan,
Simitian said. It calls for having high-speed
trains share Caltrains existing two tracks in
an initial phase of service to minimize disrup-
tion and property takings on the corridor.
The downside is that $100 billion is a
scary number, Simitian said.
Not enough detail is in place yet on who
will pay for it, he said.
Assemblyman Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo,
said the business plan update appears to be
honest but expensive.
Based on the states current budget con-
straints, however, it is hard to justify the
expenditure, Hill told the Daily Journal yes-
terday.
We have to be realistic, Hill said. We
cant put the state in greater debt. We have no
reserve, no rainy-day fund.
The business plan update shows the project
would have a net operating prot of $352 mil-
lion a year by 2025 and transport between 35
million and 40 million riders annually.
The average ticket between San Francisco
and Los Angeles would cost $81 in todays
dollars, with express trains completing the trip
in less than three hours, according to the
updated business plan.
Assemblyman Rich Gordon, D-Menlo
Park, has concerns about the escalating price
tag.
California remains in a scal crisis. We do
not have enough revenue to meet our expens-
es as is. Until we address our structural scal
problems, I do not see how California can
afford additional debt from high-speed rail,
Gordon wrote in a statement.
It might be time, he said, to invest in repair-
ing Californias existing infrastructure with-
out putting the state into massive debt by
funding the rail project.
Gordon is chair of a budget subcommittee
that oversees the rail authority and will hold a
hearing on the business plan in the next two
weeks.

He also said he does not expect the $99 bil-
lion price tag to be the nal cost for the proj-
ect.
I suspect it will go up, he said.
The California High-Speed Rail Authority
board will discuss updates to the business
plan at its next meeting, which is 10 a.m.,
Thursday, Nov. 3, City Hall, Sacramento, 915
I St., Sacramento.

RAIL
How will the project be funded?
The initial, $5.2 billion phase of the rail line, to run between
Fresno and Bakerseld, would be funded through federal
stimulus money and the sale of bonds Californians authorized
at the ballot in 2008.The rest of the nancing is contingent on
state, federal and local money, public-private partnerships,
private investment and by reinvesting money generated in
the future from parts of the line.The California High-Speed Rail
Authoritysaysit hasenoughmoneytocompletetherst phase
of the project, by 2017.
Why have the costs risen so much from the original
estimates?
Critics have claimed for years that the rail boards cost
projections were not realistic. Board members said Tuesdays
report provides the most thorough analysis and spending
projections to date. It also accounts for ination the $98.5
billion gure is based on 2033 dollars,when the San Francisco-
Anaheim line would theoretically be nished. Additional
engineering work and a longer timeframe to complete the
system are some of the factors that have driven up costs.
Planners say they also factored in an additional nine years in
delays to account for construction or funding problems.
Whats the next step?
Thepublichas60daystocomment onthenewplan.Legislative
committees on high-speed rail are expected to hold hearings,
but lawmakers will not vote on whether to approve selling the
high-speed rail bonds until after they return in January.
How did the rail authority arrive at its ticket price?
Theaveragefarewouldbe$81innon-inationadjusteddollars
for a one-way trip between Anaheim and San Francisco. The
price is just more than 80 percent of current airfares between
Los Angeles and the San Francisco Bay Area, a price intended
to keep it competitive with air travel and vehicle travel from
the Central Valley to the metropolitan areas.
Actual fares would be set by a private operator within limits
established by the authority. Fares would uctuate in a way
similar to airfare based on time and season of travel and how
far in advance riders bought their tickets, as well as discounts
for some groups. They could range from $52 for a multi-stop
train ridden during off-peak hours to $123 a last-minute
purchase on an express train.
Bycomparison,aone-wayfareontheAmtrakAcelahigh-speed
rail line between Boston and Washington, D.C., costs between
$160 and $266. That line is about 100 miles shorter than the
planned rst phase of the California rail project.
How did the rail authority arrive at its ridership estimates?
The authority said it used conservative assumptions in
projectingarangeof ridershiponthehigh-speedrail line,based
on Californias population growth, the cost of other
transportationandcurrent rail ridership.For example,thereport
used population growth gures 9 to 10 percent below state
gures. It also accounted for the price of gasoline, airfare costs
and the projected travel needs of residents.
The rail line is projected to have from 7.4 million to 10.8 million
riders by 2025, before the San Francisco-to-Anaheim route is
fully completed. By 2035, two years after the scheduled
completion, the business plan projects ridership at 23 million
to 34 million. That will jump to between 29.6 million and 44
million riders by 2040.
Why were rail lines to Sacramento and San Diego not
included in the rst phase?
Extensions of the high-speed rail line to Sacramento and San
Diego were always scheduled to be completed later.
Isthereevidencethat privateentitieswouldbewillingto
invest up to 20 million?
Its not clear where the private investment will come from.The
authority projects private investors are likely to be interested
in the project once the initial Central Valley segment is
completed and ofcials have proved it is nancially viable,
based on international models.Private vendors would make a
capital investment and bid on the right to operate the rail line.
Ofcials said they also could make money by selling the right
to install ber optic cables on rail property in the Central Valley.
The high speed rail system is envisioned as a public-private
partnership. The business plan envisions state and federal
governments assuming greater risk in the development phase
with private companies taking on more nancial responsibility
as the project proceeds.
Thereport saysthecost of buildingother infrastructure
would be $170 billion. Where does that number come
from?
Californias population is expected to hit 59.5 million by 2050,
accordingtothestateDepartment of Finance.Freewaysaround
Californias major cities already are among the most congested
in the nation, and ight delays at the states airports are above
national averages.To build the equivalent passenger capacity
to the 520-mile rail line, the report says would require 2,300
new miles of highways, 115 new airport gates and four new
runways. It estimates that would cost about $114 billion in
2010 funds,or $171 billion when adjusted for ination to 2033.
What is Californias current bond indebtedness?
As of Oct. 1, California voters had approved $150 billion in
general obligation bonds, not all of which have been sold.The
state still has to pay off $79.7 billion in bonds, money the state
has used to pay for everything from new schools and parks to
water projects and prisons.About $37 billion remain unissued,
according to the state treasurers ofce.
Q&A related to high-speed rail plan
By David McHugh
FRANKFURT, Germany It took only a
few words from Greeces prime minister to
upend Europes efforts to convince the world
that its grand plan to save the euro would
mark a turning point in the continents debt
crisis and keep it from hurting the global
economy.
The chaos generated by George
Papandreous mere proposal to put Greeces
participation in the deal to a referendum
exposed the fragility of the European plan and
the lack of condence it enjoys in markets.
A top European ofcial warned that Athens
could be left to go bankrupt if it went through
with the vote and experts said the broader
eurozone deal which hopes to protect larg-
er countries like Italy could collapse.
Ultimately, Greece could leave the euro
union, causing massive nancial havoc and
pushing the global economy back into reces-
sion.
That prospect could be enough to keep the
referendum from happening Papandreous
government could collapse before the propos-
al goes through, having lost huge amounts of
support from its own party. The cabinet met in
emergency session Wednesday night.
The referendum proposal piled more pres-
sure on an already creaking deal that was fac-
ing scrutiny from markets that found details
wanting.
European leaders agreed last Thursday on
(euro) 100 billion ($136 billion) in new
bailout loans for Greece to accompany a 50
percent debt writeoff on the debt owed to its
private creditors. The broader plan will also
push European banks to strengthen their
nances against losses on Greek bonds and
strengthen the bailout fund to backstop other
governments.
Yet key details were lacking: Would enough
banks join the voluntary writedown? How
would a scheme to magnify the bailout funds
nancial power work? Would banks refuse to
raise new capital and instead buttress their
nances by simply lending less money, hurt-
ing the economy? Would the 50 percent
reduction still leave Greece with too much
debt to repay?
Greek vote proposal undermines shaky euro deal
