land buy

San Carlos to pay $14M
for three gatewayparcels

San Carlos long-standing dream for
a hotel in its industrial area moved one
step closer to reality after the City
Council voted 4-1 in favor of purchas-
ing three parcels for nearly $14 mil-
lion which it hopes to resell to a devel-
oper.
With Councilman Matt Grocott dis-
senting on each of the three parcels,

The hiring of an assistant superintendent,
which would cost the Hillsborough school
district between $170,000 and $210,000 a
year, has some parents and community
members concerned money should be direct-
ed elsewhere while the district says the
position is necessary to help with increas-
ing demands on the superintendent.
The Hillsborough City Elementary
School District held special meetings
Tuesday morning and night to allow for
public input on the decision. Board
President Lynne Esselstein admitted the ve
school board trustees didnt do as good of a
job at communicating the decision as they
could have. There is currently a pool of 40
candidates and the hiring process should
wrap up in January, she said.
A petition against the Sept. 10 hiring
decision circulated online at
GoPetition.com by an anonymous group
called Caring Parents and has 401 signa-
tures to date. It states: We, parents and
community members of Hillsborough,
believe the hiring of an assistant superin-
tendent is premature and any excess funds in
the districts budget should be applied
toward students education as a priority
instead. About 100 of the signatures are
anonymous and Caring Parents cant be
held accountable itself if it doesnt reveal

After a decade of searching, and a
year of working with the city of
Belmont, the Crystal Springs Uplands
School nalized its purchase of the
6.5-acre Davis Drive property yester-
day.
The news came as a shock, after the
schools application to redevelop the
land into a middle school was denied by
the City Council in October of last year.
The school had planned to purchase
the land from the owner Cengage
Learning and was given a general go-
ahead by the council in 2011 but, after
its application to develop the land was
turned down by the council, its search
for a new home seemed to turn else-
where. Councilwoman Coralin
Feierbach approached the school in
April and encouraged it to reapply, but
the property was no longer available
at that time and the school couldnt
move forward, said the schools
Director of Development Andrea
Edwards.
When Cengage recently began bank-
ruptcy proceedings, the school decided
now was the time to buy, said Jill
Grossman, a member of the schools
Board of Trustees. The school bought
the property for $11 million, but will
need to go through the city before it
can build, Grossman said.
It is certainly a risky move given

Plans for the Belmont site were rejected by city ofcials last year but a new council may be more open.

An apartment complex and the his-
torical Gates House sustained an esti-
mated $2 million and $250,000,
respectively, in damages from a four-
alarm re in Burlingame this weekend,
said Central County Fire Marshal
Rocque Yballa.
A floor heater appears to be the
source of the fire near downtown
Burlingame early Saturday morning
around 3:49 a.m. The Fire Department
believes combustible items near a
oor heater on the rst oor of the
two-story building were the cause. The
apartment complex, at 1218 Donnelly
Ave., is red tagged, meaning its not
safe for human occupancy, Yballa said.
That doesnt mean it cant be sal-
vaged, Yballa said. It needs to go
through assessment by engineers to
see if they can save or not. It could
take months. Saving it or not depends
upon if the owner of the building wants
to try to retain it.
The other building at 1214 Donnelly
Ave. was formerly occupied by G.W.
Gates, the citys first stationmaster
and postmaster, according to a 2008
inventory of historic resources by the
Carey & Co. architecture rm. He con-
structed the drug store and post ofce
on a parcel now adjacent to the Bank of
Burlingame on California Drive. The
space is occupied by the mobile accel-
erator Tandem Entrepreneurs
Management Services, which is mov-
ing to a 1813 El Camino Real property
and a 1220 Donnelly Ave. space for the
time being, said Ron Evans, Tandems
director of finance. The companys
three-year lease at 1214 Donnelly
Ave., to the east of 1218 Donnelly
Ave., expires in July 2015, he said.
We were fortunate in that all of our
companies stepped up and helped with
the cleanup, said Doug Renert, a co-
founding partner of Tandem, in an
email. Our landlord quickly provided
us with new space in the area temporar-
i l y. Hes been very supportive. We
hope to work with him to rebuild the
ofces and move back in as soon as
possible.
Around 2008, the building was
deemed to be a historical building eli-
gible for listing on the local and
national registers, said Jennifer Pfaff,
president of the Burlingame Historical
Society.
Its a pity, she said. I hope they
can rescue it. Itd be sad for it to be
bulldozed.
Crews arrived on the scene to nd the
right side of the building as well as its
front porch fully engulfed in ames,
Yballa said.
The re spread into the buildings
attic and completely burned out the
inside. Crews were able to get the re
under control by 5:30 a.m. Yballa said
the re appears to have started near a
oor heater in the main room on the
buildings rst oor. Yballa said that
the structures age and its wood-shin-
gled siding likely contributed to the
res rapid spread. The main building,
which the re marshal estimated to
date back to the early 1900s, was built
before automatic sprinklers were
required, he said.
If these buildings had sprinklers, it
would have been contained to the
building of origin, he said.

Prosecutors have charged the alleged-
ly intoxicated and speeding driver of a
car that lost control on Devils Slide
Saturday morning with vehicular
manslaughter for the death of his pas-
senger after it collided on a turn.
Ryan James Reisenberger, 24, of El
Cajon, is also charged with driving
while intoxicated in the Nov. 23 crash
that injured the two rear passengers in
addition to the death.
Prosecutors say Reisenbergers blood
alcohol level was .12 three hours after
the 3:30 a.m. collision.
Reisenberger was driving himself and
his passengers southbound from San
Francisco on Highway 1 just south of
the Tom Lantos tunnels near Devils
Slide when passengers later said a turn
came too quickly and the car went out of
control. Sanjeev Joshi, of Visalia, was
pronounced dead at the scene and the
crash closed Highway 1 in both direc-
tions for approximately ve hours,
according to the California Highway
Patrol.
Reisenberger was allegedly driving
80 mph in a 45 mph zone and the pas-
sengers also told authorities the group
had been drinking in San Francisco.
Reisenberger appeared in court on the
charges with a retained attorney but put
off a plea until Dec. 3. Bail was set at
$250,000 and Reisenberger remains in
custody.

Man killed in motorcycle
crash near Devils Slide identified
A motorcyclist who was killed Monday night in a crash
on state Highway 1 near Devils Slide has been identied by
the San Francisco medical examiners ofce as 24-year-old
Salvatore OBrien.
OBrien, a San Francisco resident, was riding a Harley
Davidson north on Highway 1 just south of the Tom Lantos
Tunnels when he collided with two southbound vehicles at
about 8:55 p.m., California Highway Patrol Ofcer Michael
Ferguson said.
OBriens motorcycle burst into ames when it crashed
head-on into the second vehicle, a 2014 Subaru, Ferguson
said.
Arriving paramedics found OBrien lying in the road crit-
ically injured, Ferguson said. He was taken to San Francisco
General Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at about
9:45 p.m., according to the CHP.
The Subarus driver suffered minor injuries but refused
medical attention. The driver of the other vehicle involved
was not hurt.
Neither driver was under the inuence of drugs or alcohol,
according to the CHP.
It has not been determined if OBrien was driving under
the inuence, Ferguson said.
High surf, rip tides forecast for Thanksgiving Day
Anyone planning to take a walk on the beach on
Thanksgiving should expect higher-than-normal surf, as a
seasonal swell is forecast to hit Bay Area coastlines this
week, a weather forecaster said Tuesday.
The National Weather Service has issued a coastal hazard
statement for Northern California beaches from Sonoma
County to Monterey, saying coastal spots could see waves
as high as 10 feet, occasional sneaker waves and strong
rip tides on Thursday, forecaster Christine Riley said.
It affects all of coastal Northern California, Riley said.
Especially west-facing beaches will see the biggest
swells.
Strong winds developing over the Pacic Ocean off of
Northern California are causing the swell, she said.
The hazard statement which is less serious than a high-
surf warning or advisory was issued to make the public
aware of unusual and potentially dangerous conditions.
We just wanted to give the public a heads-up that theres
a higher likelihood of sneaker waves and rip tides on
Thanksgiving Day, she said.

The San Carlos City Councils previ-
ous approvals for the Transit Village
project still stands but a second read-
ing of a related zoning ordinance still
managed to cause discord about
whether the process was too hurried.
Whats the urgency to get this
thing off the dais? It seems like were
rushing things along, said
Councilman Matt Grocott, adding he
felt frustrated because none of the
issues he wanted to tackle at the previ-
ous meeting were talked about before
the council voted 4-1 Nov. 12 in favor
of pushing forward the mixed-use proj-
ect around the existing train station.
At the prior meeting, Grocott him-
self had voted afrmatively but nearly
immediately said he planned to seek a
reconsideration or at least vote nega-
tive at Monday nights second reading
of the rezoning portion.
It could be, Mr. Grocott, youre the
only one who wants to discuss these
things. Did you think of that? asked
Mayor Bob Grassilli.
Councilman Ron Collins also ticked
off the 16-plus public meetings held
on the Transit Village over the years
and said, as the longest sitting coun-
cilman, Grocott should be the most
familiar with the project.
How do you rush a project when it
takes nine years? Collins asked, later
telling Grocott I really get the feeling
you dont want a project at all.
Vice Mayor Mark Olbert, the lone
dissenter at the rst vote and another at
Mondays meeting, said he also felt
the vote came too quickly at the end of
a late night and suggested that as the
council moves on to other big city
projects, like a possible hotel devel-
opment, it take time to decide early on
how it wants the process to go.
Ironically, while the process and
timing did not sit well with some, the
nal outcome based on Grasillis pro-
posal to downsize the development to
three stories did.
We felt it went in the proper direc-
tion but felt the job was rushed, said
Dimitri Vandellos of the Greater East
San Carlos group which has vocally
opposed many past elements of the
plan like density and height.
At Monday nights meeting, he
asked that the council resolve linger-
ing concerns about landscaping, shut-
tles and other mitigation measures.
Grocott said his outstanding worries
include design elements, setbacks and
size. Although the approved project
calls for three stories, Grocott argued
that did not spell out overall height.
He was told by city staff the maximum
is 42 feet.
As approved, the projects eight
buildings must be no more than three
stories and 233 units. The council also
previously voted 3-2 to waive its stan-
dard below-market rate requirements
and allow Legacy Partners to build 10
percent of units with half each for mod-
erate and low affordability.

A jury deliberated less than three hours
before convicting a Norteo gangmember
of murdering a man wearing a blue jacket
because he was mistaken for a rival.
The rst-degree murder verdict, along with
the special allegation of murder for gang
purposes, leaves Michael Elijah Rodriguez,
21, looking at life in prison without the
possibility of parole. He also faces another
25 years to life term for the use of a rearm.
The jury additionally found true other gang
enhancements.
Rodriguez will be sentenced Jan. 13 and
remains in custody without bail.
Rodriguez is one of four men charged in
the Nov. 28, 2010, death of Julio Pantoja
Cuevas. Two others previously accepted
plea deals.
Cuevas was allegedly visiting three
female friends at a Madison Avenue apart-
ment complex in Redwood City wearing a
navy blue jacket. Rodriguez and fellow
defendants Jaime Rodriguez, no relation,
and Mario Cazarez Jr. allegedly approached
Cuevas and challenged him about what gang
he claimed. After a shoving match, Michael
Rodriguez allegedly pulled a gun and shot
him several times. Cuevas ran down an alley
where he fell and died and the suspects ed in
the opposite direction.
Rodriguez and Cazarez were arrested the
day after the shooting. Jaime Rodriguez
remained at large until June 2011 when he
was arrested in Santa Fe, N.M., for a domes-
tic dispute in a casino.
Jaime Rodriguez, 22, pleaded no contest
in early October to rst-degree murder and a
special gang enhancement in return for a at
26-year term when sentenced in January.
Another defendant, Gerardo Aboytes, 21,
also accepted a plea deal and received 17
years in prison for mayhem, perjury and
assault with a deadly weapon. Aboytes was
not physically at the scene when Cuevas
was shot but called his alleged accomplices
to alert them to the presence of possible
gang rivals, according to prosecutors. He
was tied to the case after testifying before
the grand jury and later indicted.

SACRAMENTO Ajudges rulings this
week ordered Californias high-speed rail
authority to rewrite its funding plan, bring-
ing to the surface again one of the biggest
hurdles facing the ambitious, $68 billion
project: Where will the money come from to
complete it?
State and federal sources so far account for
less than 20 percent of the total price, and
the current plan relies on vague funding
from federal, state, local and private
sources. Republicans in Congress, includ-
ing House members from California, have
vowed to block any additional money.
Rail ofcials say they are not worried
about the delay. They insist that most major
infrastructure projects raise money as they
go, rather than providing all the funding up
front. Chief Executive Jeff Morales says a
new nancing plan will be ready in months,
not years, and that the delay will not have
any material effect on the project.
Sacramento County Superior Court Judge
Michael Kenny has ruled that the states cur-
rent nancing plan does not comply with
the promises made to voters in 2008 when
they approved selling $10 billion in bonds
for the project. Beyond the $6 billion in
state and federal funds for the first 130
miles, the judge said, revenue is theoretical
rather than reasonably expected actually to
be available starting in 2015. The current
cost estimate for building the first 300
miles, which the judge has indicated he
believes is what the bond measure intended
to nance, is $31 billion.
On Monday, Kenny ordered the state to
write a new nancing plan before tapping
the voter-approved bond money; the court
rulings do not halt work that already is
underway on the initial section of track
between Madera and Fresno.
The rulings again raise the question of
whether the rail system will ever deliver
what voters were promised: A high-speed
network shuttling riders between San
Francisco and Los Angeles in 2 hours and 40
minutes, requiring no state operating subsi-
dies.
There also is the possibility that
California could spend billions for a rail
network that is never completed, creating a
track to nowhere in the Central Valley.

NEW YORK Thanksgiving
travelers scrambled to book earlier
ights Tuesday to avoid a sprawl-
ing storm bearing down on the
East Coast with a messy mix of
snow, rain and wind that threat-
ened to snarl one of the busiest
travel days of the year and ground
giant balloon versions of Snoopy
and SpongeBob SquarePants in the
Macys parade.
The characters that soar between
Manhattan skyscrapers every year
may not lift off Thursday if sus-
tained winds exceed 23 mph and
gusts exceed 34 mph, according to
city rules enacted after erce winds
in 1997 caused a Cat in the Hat
balloon to topple a light pole and
seriously injure a spectator.
Current forecasts call for sus-
tained winds of 20 mph and gusts
of 36 mph.
At this time, it is too early to
make any determinations on the
ight of the giant balloons, said
Macys spokesman Orlando Veras.
On Thanksgiving morning,
Macys works closely with the
NYPD, who, based on real time
weather data and the ofcial regu-
lations determine if the balloons
will y and at what heights.
Balloons have been grounded
only once in the parades 87-year
history, when bad weather kept
them from ying in 1971. Theyre
set to be inated in Manhattan on
Wednesday evening.
Meanwhile, meteorologists
warned that the storm, which has
moved across the country, would
almost certainly upset holiday
travel plans on Wednesday for
those hoping to visit loved ones
in the mid-Atlantic and Northeast.
Many travelers were moving to
earlier ights, taking advantage of
airlines policies to waive their
normal change fees.
Lisa Jablon was originally sup-
posed to y Delta from New York
City to Syracuse, N.Y. , on
Wednesday at 9:39 a.m. But after
following the storms move-
ments, she decided to jump on the
last ight out Tuesday night.
Im ying up to spend the holi-
day with my boyfriends family
and I didnt want to get stuck,
Jablon said. The rain seems to be
better off tonight than it looks
tomorrow morning.

China asserted greater military
control over a swath of the East
China Sea to bolster claims to a
cluster of disputed islands, the
U.S. defied the move Tuesday as
it flew two B-52 bombers
through the area.
The U.S. said what it described
as a training mission was not
own to respond to Chinas latest

ic ights made clear that the U.S.
will not recognize the new territo-
rial claims that Beijing laid out
over the weekend.

WASHINGTON An agreement
secured with its greatest global foe,
the Obama administration pleaded
Tuesday with a more familiar if
often difcult negotiating partner
not to scuttle last weekends Iran
nuclear deal: Congress.
Just back from his diplomatic tri-
umph in Europe, Secretary of State
John Kerry delivered a video mes-
sage to legislators as he urged that
they not introduce new economic
measures against Iran at a time the
U.S. and fellow world powers are
withdrawing some sanctions in
exchange for the Iranians curtailing
their nuclear program.
Kerry asserted that now is the
time to get to work on a nal agree-
ment that removes any suspicion
that Iran is trying to produce nuclear
weapons. We all know that if the
agreement falls apart, Iran is going
to quickly face even tougher sanc-
tions, he said in the message.
Although Kerry was reaching out
personally to
key senators,
Democrats and
Re p u b l i c a n s
appeared deter-
mined to
increase the
pressure on
Tehran. Many in
Congress are
skeptical, if not
outright hostile, to the deal reached
in Geneva. Two key senators
already are at work on legislation to
reinstate the full force of sanctions
and impose new ones if Iran doesnt
make good on its pledge to roll
back its nuclear program.
The American people need an
insurance policy to prevent a rerun
of North Korea, said Sen. Mark
Kirk, R-Ill., who is crafting a bill
alongside Sen. Bob Menendez, D-
N.J. Critics of the accord reached in
Geneva believe it could allow Iran
to trick international monitors
while it assembles an atomic
weapons arsenal, similar to North
Korea last decade.

WASHINGTON The Obama administra-
tion Tuesday launched a bid to rein in the use
of tax-exempt groups for political cam-
paigning.
The effort is an attempt to reduce the role
of loosely regulated big-money political
outts like GOP political guru Karl Roves
Crossroads GPS and the pro-Obama
Priorities USA.
The Internal Revenue Service and the
Treasury Department said they want to pro-
hibit such groups from using candidate-
related political activity like running ads,
registering voters or distributing campaign
literature as activities that qualify them to
be tax-exempt social welfare organiza-
tions.
The agencies say there will be a lengthy
comment period before any regulations will
be finalized. That means groups like
Crossroads and Priorities USA will be able
to collect millions of dollars from anony-
mous donors ahead of next years campaign.
This proposed guidance is a rst critical
step toward creating clear-cut denitions of
political activity by tax-exempt social wel-
fare organizations, said Mark Mazur, treas-
ury assistant secretary for tax policy. We
are committed to getting this right before
issuing final guidance that may affect a
broad group of organizations. It will take
time to work through the regulatory process
and carefully consider all public feedback as
we strive to ensure that the standards for tax-
exemption are clear and can be applied con-
sistently.
Organized under section 501(c)(4) of the
tax code, such groups are able to raise mil-
lions of dollars to inuence elections. But
they can also be small-scale tea party
groups, many of which say they were
harassed by the IRS after seeking tax
exempt status.
House Ways and Means Committee
Chairman Dave Camp, R-Mich., was skepti-
cal of the administrations move.
There continues to be an ongoing inves-
tigation, with many documents yet to be
uncovered, into how the IRS systematically
targeted and abused conservative-leaning
groups, he said. This smacks of the
administration trying to shut down poten-
tial critics.
The 2010 Citizens United Supreme Court
decision lifted the limits on donations by
labor unions and companies to 501(c)(4)
groups, allowing Crossroads, the largest of
them, to raise large sums outside the limits
that apply to candidates campaigns and tra-
ditional party committees.

Police: Seven wounded in
shootings near Oakland park
Seven men were wounded, one critically,
when gunre erupted on an Oakland street
and continued for several blocks, police
said.
Ofcers received reports of a shooting
about a block away from a park in East
Oakland shortly after 6 p.m. Monday,
Oakland police spokeswoman Johnna
Watson said. Police learned about a second
shooting scene nearby when they arrived.
Watson said Tuesday that initial reports
suggest that two armed suspects approached
a group of men who were celebrating a
birthday and began shooting at them.
One of the victims is in critical condi-
tion, down from an initial police report of
two, while the other six suffered non-life
threatening injuries, Watson said. The
wounded are between the ages of 23 and 31.

WASHINGTON The Supreme Court
agreed Tuesday to referee another dispute over
President Barack Obamas health care law:
whether businesses may use religious objec-
tions to escape a requirement to cover birth
control for employees.
The justices said they will take up an issue
that has divided the lower courts in the face of
roughly 40 lawsuits from for-prot compa-
nies asking to be spared from having to cover
some or all forms of contraception.
The Obama administration promotes the
laws provision of a range of preventive care,
free of charge, as a key benet of the health
care overhaul. Contraception is included in
the package of cost-free benets, which
opponents say is an attack on the religious
freedom of employers.
The court will consider two cases. One
involves Hobby Lobby Inc., an Oklahoma
City-based arts and crafts chain with 13,000
full-time employees. Hobby Lobby won in
the lower courts.
The other case is an appeal from Conestoga
Wood Specialties Corp., a Pennsylvania com-
pany that employs 950 people in making
wood cabinets. Lower courts rejected the com-
panys claims.
The court said the cases will be combined
for arguments, probably in late March. Adeci-
sion should come by late June.
The cases center on the provision of the law
that requires most employers that offer health
insurance to their workers to provide the
range of preventive health benets. In both
instances, the Christian families that own the
companies say that insuring some forms of
contraception violates their religious beliefs.
The key issue is whether prot-making cor-
porations may assert religious beliefs under
the 1993 Religious Freedom Restoration Act
or the First Amendment provision guarantee-
ing Americans the right to believe and wor-
ship as they choose.
Nearly four years ago, the justices expanded
the concept of corporate personhood, say-
ing in the Citizens United case that corpora-
tions have the right to participate in the
political process the same way that individu-
als do. Some lower court judges have applied
the same logic in the context of religious
beliefs.
The government has no business forcing
citizens to choose between making a living
and living free, said David Cortman of the
Alliance Defending Freedom, the Christian
public interest law rm that is representing
Conestoga Wood at the Supreme Court.
White House press secretary Jay Carney
said the health care law puts women and fam-
ilies in control of their health care by cover-
ing vital preventive care, like cancer screen-
ings and birth control, free of charge. Carney
said the administration already has exempted
churches from the requirement, and has created
a buffer between faith-afliated charities and
contraceptive coverage by requiring insurers
or another third party to provide contracep-
tive coverage instead of the religious employ-
er. Separate lawsuits are challenging that
arrangement.

OPINION 9
Iran nuclear deal
Editor,
I want to take President Obama at
his word that this weeks Interim
Agreement between the P5+1 and Iran
will derail Irans efforts to acquire
nuclear weapons, but I have to remain
skeptical until the results become
clearer.
Theres no question that a nuclear-
armed Iran would be a threat to Israel
and the rest of the world. Short of a
military attack that might unleash a
Pandoras Box of unintended conse-
quences, it seems that diplomacy
should be given a chance to work. But
I also believe that our patience with
Iran should be limited.
The relief Iran experiences in the
sanctions regime cannot give them
license to engage in destructive
actions, like continued support for
organizations like Hezbollah and the
Assad regime in Syria that threaten
Israels security in other ways.
For now, we have no choice but to
wait and see, but the clock is ticking
and its now up to Iran to choose the
correct path. Should they balk, the
options facing Israel and its allies are
likely to be grave. Iran has often cho-
sen the incorrect path and I hope that,
like it or not, the ayatollahs nuclear
ambitions will be constrained.
Steve Lipman

Increase the sanctions
Editor,
The new agreement is better for Iran
than it is for the United States and its
allies. Iran is celebrating and, in the
United States, there is mounting criti-
cism of the agreement. It would be
better to increase the sanctions. It is
urgent to stop Iran from the capabili-
ty to develop atomic weapons, which
the new agreement does not accom-
plish. There are more reasons to try
to stop Iran: they have supported
Assad in Syria, Hamas in Gaza,
Hezbollah in Lebanon. Iran has been
opposed to the United States in Iraq
and Afghanistan.
Iran is the origin of terrorism
against Israel and Saudi Arabia.
Increased sanctions would be better
than the new bad agreement with a
bad actor.

Oh no he didnt
Editor,
Did I see that right? Was that our
president in San Francisco being
heckled by some guy in the country
illegally? Now I am no fan of our cur-
rent president but I do respect him as
a man and for the ofce he holds. How
dare someone in this country illegal-
ly shout down our president and tell
him how U.S. immigration policy
should be for he and his family. Who
does this guy think he is? It seems
that the current intense push for
amnesty is largely coming from peo-
ple in our country illegally. Turn the
TV on and you see our streets and
politicians being inundated by illegal
immigrants demanding a path to citi-
zenship. How about no. We have
much more pressing issues as a coun-
try and putting our own citizens back
to work and educating our own kids is
at the top of that list.
Illegals chant is unison that our
immigration policies are broken.
True, but they are the ones who broke
it by breaking our nations laws.
They have become so brazen and so
comfortable they are now heckling
our own president at organized
events. The presidents only response
was to coddle this law breaker and
reassure him they are on the same side
when it comes to amnesty. Americas
immigration policy should be decided
by American citizens based on what is
best for our country and our needs. If
you are in the country illegally, you
have no right to demand anything.
Enough already.

Letters to the editor
B
urlingame residents have
long been known to have an
afnity for their citys trees.
And on occasion, a dispute will arise
when it comes to the trees along El
Camino Real. The state highway may
run through the city, but it is owned
and operated by the California
Department of Transportation.
Caltrans has been faced with the chal-
lenge with keeping the street safe and
easily drained in rainstorms while
also abiding by the denizens desire
to keep their landmark trees intact.
Part of the trouble arises because
the trees are eucalyptus, which are
grand in scale and provide a landmark
presence to this stretch of El Camino
Real. The trees, while also the some-
times victim of a natural lifespan, are
also considered by some to be part of
a historic dening character.
So when Caltrans ofcials consider
a street-widening project that could
eliminate a substantial number of
trees, there is some cause for commu-
nity concern.
The latest proposal is to widen El
Camino Real at Floribunda Avenue
where Hillsborough meets
Burlingame because of a number of
accidents at the location. Caltrans
ofcials are considering widening the
road to install an additional lane for
protected left turns. Scores of people
showed up to a meeting last week on
the proposal seeking more informa-
tion.
It appears, however, that many left
in frustration at the lack of informa-
tion provided by Caltrans ofcials at
the meeting. Another meeting is pro-
posed for this summer when a draft
environmental impact report is
released on the project.
That may be too late for many who
felt as if there was not enough infor-
mation to determine if there might be
a viable alternative to the elimination
of trees near the troubled intersection.
Regardless of your opinion on the
trees some people call them a nui-
sance, others call them beautiful it
would be wise for Caltrans ofcials to
hold another meeting before the draft
environmental impact report is sub-
mitted. Not only would that allay the
fears of those deeply concerned about
the removal of the trees, it may also
provide for a vetting of new ideas that
may not have been thought of before.
When it comes to Burlingame and
its trees, it is smart to tread lightly
and to include as many ideas as possi-
ble. If it were to be about the removal
of one tree, it would be a different
matter altogether. But this is about
the possibility of removing a signi-
cantly larger number and changing
the character of El Camino Real. It
might be that the worst-case scenario
may not be all that bad, and the better
scenarios may be even acceptable.
But until there is complete informa-
tion provided in a public setting,
there will be a growing discontent and
distrust. And that just wont end well.
Another meeting needed for tree removal plan
Its my pleasure
G
ratitude is one of the strengths of charac-
ter most robustly associated with life sat-
isfaction. Christopher Peterson,
Pursuing the Good Life.
With Thanksgiving upon us, we are encouraged to
give some thought for what we are grateful. Of course
were thankful for our families (most of us, anyway) and
friends we love and even acquaintances who make a pos-
itive impression in our lives. Our lists could be com-
prised of many other things, too, like being fortunate
to live where we do, etc. But there are much less obvious
things big and small that
we usually take for granted
but can add much to our
daily pleasure if we make
it a point to notice and
appreciate them. Your list
would no doubt be quite
different from mine. The
point is that taking note
of some of these things
can lift our spirits (if only
a little) regularly and add a
bit of joy to our lives.
Mine range from the sub-
lime to the ridiculous to
the awe-inspiring.
As an example of what I mean, I offer the following.
When I think of a really nice day, its a day when,
besides appreciating family and friends, I have made it a
point to notice the many things that add a bit more
pleasure to my life, some seemingly insignificant
others more compelling. Hopefully, youll get the idea
of what Im trying to convey in a somewhat different
and unusual way.
If you have read this column before, you may have
noticed that I read a lot of books. In making a list of
things I love, certain books would go on the top of the
list, but what inspired this column wasnt The Power of
Kindness by Piero Ferrucci or Maxine Schnalls
Limits, but a little piece of paper with one sticky end
that I use to mark the page Im on and denote a quote
with a Post-It note. As I see it, its one of the best
inventions since sliced bread. What makes it so great is
that it sticks to the page and remains there and can be
used over and over. Aregular bookmark can disappear
and I would lose my place, I fear.
So after Ive read a while and have preserved the page
with the reliable sticky note, its my intention to use a
miraculous invention. I sit down at my desktop and
bring up the Internet or Google something about which
I may have a question. Im always very impressed by
what that thing can do and I use it only for a few of its
possibilities. After typing my first few hundred columns
on a manual typewriter, having to deal with corrections,
carbon paper (Anyone remember that?), and delivering
it to the newspaper in person or mailing it, I sit there
idly gazing at the computer thats so amazing!
After all of the hard work of getting my column off to
Editor Jon, I need a rest, so I lie back in my easy chair
and put on one of my favorite CDs, close my eyes tight
for the strains of Rossini that always delight. When I
open my eyes, the view out the patio door offers many
pleasures like the birds and the flowers that I can look at
for hours and the beautiful cats that rarely catch rats.
Add the squirrels that fly from the tree to the ground as
they scurry around storing acorns theyve found.
When I pass through the hall, the display on the wall
will prompt total recall. I notice one especially mean-
ingful picture (among many others) that I took while on
a cruise of the Danube. Its a beautiful scene of Durstein,
Austria, taken from the boat a blue and white church
and spire near the shore with the ruins of a castle high
up on a hill behind it. The memories bring joy as my
spirits they buoy. When I had the photos enlarged and
framed some years ago, I had a feeling that when we
could no longer travel that they would be very precious.
And now, whenever Ive glanced, my days been
enhanced.
What never fails to impress far to the east on a
crystal clear day, is the view of the Bay. And the orange
and gold trees that sway in the breeze remind us that fall
is well underway.
If youve read this far, may I thank you a lot! You may
think that Im wacky. I wont say that Im not. But such
big and small pleasures we often ignore. Hope a delight-
ful Thanksgiving for you is in store.
Happiness lies in the consciousness we have of it.

NEWYORK Upbeat news from the
housing industry and luxury retailer
Tiffany & Co. nudged the stock market
higher Tuesday.
Investors also got another market
milestone when the Nasdaq composite
closed above the 4,000-point mark for
the rst time in 13 years.
The event follows two other round-
number moments last week. The
Standard & Poors 500 index closed
above 1,800 for the rst time, and the
Dow Jones industrial average nished
above 16,000.
On Tuesday, homebuilder shares were
among the top gainers in the broader
stock market. They rose after the
Commerce Department reported that
approvals for housing permits rose in
October at the fastest pace in five
years. Those applications indicate that
builders expect heightened demand.
Most of the growth in the report
came from apartment permits, not
homes, but investors felt the data was
positive.
Its going to translate into job cre-
ation once those permits turn into
actual construction, said Quincy
Krosby, market strategist with
Prudential Financial.
Shares of PulteGroup, Tol l
Brothers and Lennar Corp. all rose
3 percent or more.
The Nasdaq closed up 23.18 points,
or 0.6 percent, to 4,017.75. The last
time the Nasdaq closed above the
4,000-point level was Sept. 6, 2000.
The other two major stock indexes
inched higher. The Dow rose less than
a point to 16,072.80. The S&P 500
index also rose less than a point, to
1,802.75.
Tiffany & Co. rose the most in the
S&P 500 index. The jewelry chain
jumped $7.03, or 9 percent, to
$88.02, after it reported strong third-
quarter earnings. The company also
raised its full-year forecast.
Stock and bond markets are closed
Thursday in observance of
Thanksgiving. On Friday, the New
York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq will
close early.
Investors continue to pay close
attention to any details from retailers,
with the approach of Black Friday, the
busy shopping day that follows
Thanksgiving.

Fisker Automotive bankruptcy case on fast track
WILMINGTON, Del. ADelaware judge on Tuesday
kept the bankruptcy case of electric carmaker Fisker
Automotive on the fast track, with a hearing scheduled
for Jan. 3 on its proposed sale.
Anaheim, Calif.-based Fisker, which planned to build
cars at a former General Motors plant in Delaware, led
for bankruptcy protection last week, ending a long,
downward spiral that began after it received a $529 mil-
lion loan commitment from the U.S. Department of
Energy. Fisker drew $192 million on the Obama admin-
istrations green-energy loan before DOE ofcials sus-
pended funding in 2011 after the automaker failed to
meet several sales milestones for its Karma luxury vehi-
cle.
The Energy Department recovered about $28 million
before selling the remainder of its loan last week for
$25 million to Hybrid Technology LLC, resulting in a
loss to taxpayers of $139 million. Delaware taxpayers
are on the hook for about $20 million in loans and
grants provided to Fisker in hopes of resurrecting vehi-
cle production at the shuttered GM plant in Wilmington.
Business brief
By Bree Fowler
NEW YORK Hewlett-Packard
posted net income of $1.4 billion for
its scal fourth-quarter, as cost cuts
stemming from its ongoing restructur-
ing more than offset the effects of
sluggish computer demand.
The worlds second-largest maker of
PCs, considered a bellwether in the
technology industry, also issued a
strong prot prediction for the current
quarter.
The Palo Alto-based companys
stock rose $1.62, or 6 percent, to
$26.71 in extended trading after the
results were released. The shares had
dipped 16 cents to close at $25.16 in
Tuesdays regular trading session.
So far this year, HPs stock has
gained about 77 percent.
CEO Meg Whitman said better exe-
cution and cost management were driv-
ing the positive results. She said that
while there is still much work to do,
the quarters results show HPs turn-
around remains on track heading into
scal 2014.
Whitman said on a conference call
with investors that the companys per-
sonal computer business outperformed
the rest of the industry. Its revenue fell
2 percent during the companys
August-October quarter, but was at
excluding the effects of currency
exchange rates. Meanwhile, industry
wide computer shipments dropped 9.5
percent in the July-September period,
she said.
The personal computer industry has
struggled in recent years as consumers
turn their attention toward smart-
phones and tablet computers. HP has
tried to offset declining PC demand by
cutting costs and focusing on more
protable areas such as commercial
and home printing.
Lately the company has been opti-
mistic about the future. Last month,
the company predicted that fiscal
2014, which started in November, will
be a year of recovery and expansion.
For the quarter ended Oct. 31, HPs
prot amounted to 73 cents per share
and compared with a loss of $6.9 bil-
lion, or $3.49 per share, in the same
period a year ago. Excluding one-time
charges, the company earned $1.01
per share for the recent period.
Revenue fell 3 percent to $29.1 bil-
lion.
Analysts polled by FactSet expected
a prot of $1 per share on $27.86 bil-
lion in revenue.
For the scal rst quarter, the compa-
ny predicts an adjusted profit of
between 82 cents and 86 cents per
share. HP also backed its previously
issued scal 2014 prot prediction of
$3.55 to $3.75 per share.
Analysts expect first-quarter earn-
ings of 85 cents per share and a scal-
year prot of $3.64 per share.
HP posts $1.4B fiscal 4Q profit

WASHINGTON U.S. developers
received approval in October to build
apartments at the fastest pace in ve
years, a trend that could boost eco-
nomic growth in the final three
months of the year.
Permits to build houses and apart-
ments were approved at a seasonally
adjusted annual rate of 1.034 million,
the Commerce Department said
Tuesday. Thats 6.2 percent higher
than the September rate of 974,000
and the fastest since June 2008, just
before the peak of the nancial crisis.
Nearly all of the increase was for
multi-family homes, a part of residen-
tial construction that reects rentals
and can be volatile from month to
month. Those permits rose 15.3 per-
cent to a rate of 414,000, also the
fastest since June 2008. Plans for con-
struction in the U.S. south drove much
of the increase.
Permits for single-family houses,
which make up roughly two-thirds of
the market, rose 0.8 percent to a rate of
620,000. Thats still slightly below
the August pace of 627,000. And it sug-
gests that higher prices and borrowing
costs are weakening buyer demand.
Data on homes started in October and
September were not included in
Tuesdays report. Those gures have
been delayed because of the govern-
ment shutdown and will be released on
Dec. 18 with the November home con-
struction report.
The increase in permits suggests
those gures will rise. And it indicates
that housing construction will make a
much bigger contribution to econom-
ic growth in the nal quarter of the
year, said Ian Shepherdson, chief
economist at Pantheon
Macroeconomics.

NEWYORK Never say never.
Just when it looked like a potential
combination of Mens Wearhouse and
Jos. A. Bank was dead in the water, the
script has been ipped.
Now its Mens Wearhouse that is
offering approximately $1.54 billion
for its rival. Less than two weeks ago,
Jos. A. Bank dropped a $2.3 billion
bid for its competitor. Acombination
could create a menswear powerhouse of
more than 1,700 outlets.
The announcement that Mens
Wearhouse was interested in a possible
deal came as a bit of a surprise on
Tuesday. The retailer had received an
unsolicited offer of $48 per share from
Jos. A. Bank Clothiers Inc. in
September. But it rejected that bid in
October, calling it opportunistic and
inadequate.
Jos. A. Bank was still in the hunt
back then though, saying it would be
open to raising its offer if allowed to
assess whether an increased bid was
justied. But Mens Wearhouse would-
nt give the Hampstead, Md., company
access to nonpublic information, and
Jos. A. Bank dropped its bid on Nov.
15.

EXPECTING GOOD THINGS: SKYLINE MENS BASKETBALL WILL RELY ON EXPERIENCE, TALENT TO SPARK A WINNING SEASON >> PAGE 12
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The Hillsdale tennis duo of senior Natalie
Spievack and junior Mariko Iinuma did some-
thing no Peninsula Athletic League school has
done since the 1990s win a Central Coast
Section individual title.
Spievack and Iinumas 6-4, 6-2 win over
Menlo Schools Christine Eliazo and Alice Yao
is the rst CCS title of any kind for a PAL
school since Burlingames Nicole Ja won the
singles crown in 1993 and the rst doubles
crown since Aragons Sebrian and Melinda Lau
won it in 1990.
Its denitely good to do it for our area,
Spievack said.
It is also the rst CCS tennis title of any
kind for Hillsdale. Pam Kahler lost in the 1980
singles nal.
This was Speivacks rst and only year play-
ing for the Hillsdale team and it was a memo-
rable one. The Knights nished as co-champi-
ons of the PAL Bay Division, then Spievack
and Iinuma teamed up to win the PAL doubles
title and qualify for CCS, where they were the
top seed.
I dont think we were surprised (to get the
top seed), Spievack said. But it kind of set
expectations high. We wanted to go in and
have respect for all our opponents and play as
well as we possibly could.
Iinuma, on the other hand, was a bit shocked
to be seeded No. 1. As the tournament went on,
however, she started to think about winning a
CCS title.
I was surprised we got the rst seed, so I was
a little nervous, Iinuma said. But once we
started playing, I felt condent in myself so I
thought we could do it.
Not only did the Hillsdale tandem win the
CCS doubles title, they did it in dominating
fashion. In four matches, they did not drop a
set the closest coming when they needed a
tiebreaker in the rst set of their seminal
match against a team from Carmel. They went
on to win the tiebreaker and the second set 6-2
to advance to the championship match against
the Menlo pair.
Normally, playing a Menlo team would put
fear into a team from the PAL. The Knights are
a perennial CCS title contender and have not
lost a team match to a PAL squad in at least a
decade.
But Spievack has a special connection with
Eliazo.
Ive been playing against her since I was
9, Spievack said. I know her really well. It
denitely helped that we knew who they were
and are familiar with how they play.
The Hillsdale pair was also buoyed by the
fact Iinumas ankle was getting stronger every
match. Despite severely spraining her left
ankle leading up to the PAL tournament,
Iinuma continued to play through the pain.
Now, three weeks removed from the initial
injury, she just keeps getting better.
I would say (the ankle is) 80 percent,
Iinuma said. Im still wearing a supporter, but
its getting better. Its totally ne.
I was probably able to run normally and get
to the ball faster. I think I was able to play
pretty well [during the tournament].
Spievack said Iinumas ankle must have
been feeling pretty good because she said she
believed there wasnt as much slack to pick up.
Hillsdale duo wins CCS title

If youre a volleyball fan, there
is no better time than now to catch
a Menlo Knights match.
Thats because, right about now,
the girls from Menlo are running
like a well-oiled, finely-tuned
machine.
Take Tuesday night win against
Willows High School as a prime
example. After capturing the
Central Coast Section Division IV
title a couple days before, the
Knights were back on the court for
a quaternal matchup to kick off
their bid for a Northern California
championship. And in a little over
an hour worth of work, Menlo was
cleaning up the athletic facilty and
thinking about Saturdays semi-
nal.
Thats right, it took just about
60 minutes to take down Willows
3-0 25-11, 25-16, 25-12. The
win was the well-oiled machine at
its best.
I thought we played well
enough to win tonight, said
Menlo head coach Steve
Cavella, whose team improved to
30-5 on the year with the win. We
seized every opportunity on the
court and played really well. Well
go in tomorrow and get ready for
the next match.
The victory was Menlo in cruise
control throughout. The Knights
only rough patch of the night
came to begin the match. Willows
jumped out to a 6-3 advantage
fueled by a couple of hitting errors
by Menlo.
But that lead didnt last very
long. After Morgan Dressel tied
the match 7-7 with a kill, Menlo
took off like it had rocket boosters
attached to its sneakers. The
Knights outscored Willows 18-4
for the rest of the rst set with
Melissa Cairo serving the last
eight points of the frame a run
that included a quartet of aces by
Menlo rolls to

As a junior in 2012, Harrison
Enright was just one of several
lethal players for the Sacred Heart
Prep boys water polo team that
captured its second straight
Central Coast Section Division II
championship.
This year as a senior, Enright
was THE man for the Gators and
with that came the undivided atten-

said, there was no way of stopping
Enright, opposing teams could
only hope to contain him.
And they could only do that to a

Despite having lost two games in the
Mendocino tournament last week, the 2-2
start by the Skyline mens basketball team is
a far cry from last years 0-4 beginning.
Coach Justin Piergrossi said the fact he
played so many freshmen last season should
bode well for this year.
I think expectations are a little higher
than normal, just because we have so many
sophomores, Piergrossi said. They played
a lot last year (as freshmen). We feel they are
prepared and should be prepared to win games
now. Theyve proved that a little bit (so far
this season).
While the sophomores should lead with
experience, it is a freshman talent who will
jump-start the Trojans offense. Elijah White,
a freshman out of El Camino in South San
Francisco, has taken over the point guard
duties and has already seen his game translate
from the high school to the junior college
level.
He has handled that role very well,
Piergrossi said. He just has the increased
responsibility of getting everyone involved.
Thats something we talked about in the
preseason.
Through four games, White is seventh in
the Coast Conference-North in scoring, aver-
aging just over 15 points per game. His 4.5
assists per game puts him third in the confer-
ence.
He has handled the role very well. Hes
being challenged on the [defensive] end of
the oor, more so than in high school. On
the [offensive] end of the oor, hes putting a
lot of pressure on the defense, Piergrossi
said. Hes a tough guard. Hes kind of doing
it all. I think hes exceeded my expectations a
little bit. I didnt think he would be so good at
it so quickly.
White, however, does have plenty of help.
With his ability to penetrate and get to the
basket, he needs a big man to dish the ball to
down low. That would be 6-9 forward/center
Brandon Berkovatz, a former Mills standout.
Were counting on him to be averaging a
double-double, Piergrossi said. So far, hes
averaging about 10 (points) and seven
(rebounds). We go to him a lot. Were going
to need him to score. He still has some
work to do, nishing around the basket.
Berkovatz is a slight 6-9 and getting him
to add bulk to frame has been a challenge.
While he wont be confused with LeBron
James, Berkovatz has aspects to his game
that could make him a tough guard.
Hes a hard matchup because he can really
run the oor, Piergrossi said. Hes also
pretty comfortable shooting from the
perimeter, about 15 feet in. Hes getting
recruited pretty hard.
On the other block is Aaron Brown, a 6-4
sophomore out of Wallenberg in San
Francisco.
He gives us a little strength and athleti-
cism at the [power forward] spot, Piergrossi
said.
Joining White in the backcourt is former
Woodside star Matt Ennis and D.J. Harvey,
out of Riordan.
[Ennis has] got a little athleticism to him.
Can knock down some shots, Piergrossi
said. {Harvey] may be a little more explo-
sive off the dribble.
Key players off the bench include Daniel
Selsor, another Riordan product, and Kevin
Brandenberg, a sophomore originally from
Ohio whose twin brother plays for Virginia
Commonwealth University.
Piergrossi said Selsor was hurt for a major-
ity of last season but, when he was on the
court, he produced.
He played very well when he did play,
Piergrossi said.
Brandenberg is the guy that brings all the
intangibles to the game. Piergrossi said the
6-foot guard does all the dirty work, brings
energy off the bench and is the type of player
opponents hate to play against.
Hes a part-time starter, Piergrossi said.
He has a great motor. He defends. He
rebounds. He plays unbelievably hard. He
rebounds like hes 6-4.
Brandenberg and Berkovatz are currently
tied for fourth in the conference with 7.5
rebounds per game.
Piergrossi said another key to this years
squad is its depth, which is something he has-
nt always had as a coach. More importantly,
that depth can play.
We usually play about 10 deep. There are
seven or eight guys we could start with,
Piergrossi said. Any given night, someone
else can step up and be the guy who can get
more minutes and contribute a little more.
The one concern Piergrossi has so far early
in the season is the Trojanslack of shooting.
He said they are currently shooting around 42
percent from the eld and 30 percent from
behind the 3-point arc.
Thats not going to cut it for us,
Piergrossi, who said he needs his team to be
in the 47 percent and 35 percent ranges.
If Skyline can do that, Piergrossi likes his
teams prospects this season.
The expectations in the preseason are for
us to compete with every team we play,
Piergrossi said. In league, the goal is to be
the top three or four.
Skyline hoping experience, talent leads to win

Elijah White is proving to be just as difcult
to stop as a Skyline freshman as he was
during his time at El Camino.
NEW ORLEANS After many of his
teammates were dressed and walking to the
bus outside New Orleans Arena, Jermaine
ONeal sat in the visitors locker room, still
in uniform, with large packs of ice wrapped
around his legs and a slight smile on his
face.
With the short-handed Warriors needing
help from someone anyone to stop a
three-game skid, ONeal returned from right
knee and groin injuries that had sidelined
him for four games and put up season highs
with 18 points and eight rebounds. It was
just enough to help lift Golden State to a
102-101 victory over the New Orleans
Pelicans on Tuesday night.
I had a rough six or seven days, hadnt
been able to practice, had a viral infection,
the groin injury, the knee injury, and I just
felt like sometimes when your back is
against the wall you just go out there and
have fun, enjoy it, the 17-year pro said. I
prayed about it and just went out there and
did what Ive been doing for so many years,
just playing the game.
ONeal made his rst seven shots and n-
ished 9 of 12 from the eld, including the
Warriors nal basket on a baseline hook
that made it 102-99 with about 2 minutes
left.
Eric Gordon had a chance to win it for New
Orleans with an open 3-pointer from the left
corner in the nal seconds, but the shot
rimmed out as the crowd, which was on its
feet, started to cheer and then suddenly
groaned.
Anthony Davis couldnt quite reach the
rebound, and Stephen Curry, who had left
Gordon alone to offer help defense on Jrue
Holidays drive moments earlier, might
have been the most relieved player on the
court after watching Holiday instead zip a
pass to the corner.
Im sure theyd knock that shot down
nine out of 10 times, Curry said.
Thankfully, this is the only time he missed
it.
Pelicans coach Monty Williams expressed
considerably less gratitude.
Eric gets a wide-open look, and it goes
down and comes out, he said. This game is
cruel. Its a cruel game.
Klay Thompson scored 22 points and tied
a career high with eight assists for the
Warriors, who were without suspended cen-
ter Andrew Bogut, as well as several injured
players, including swing man Andre
Iguodala (strained left hamstring) and guard
Toney Douglass (stress reaction, left tibia).
David Lee scored 19 points, capped by
two big free throws with 2:34 left.
Curry struggled to nd his usual accuracy,
missing 13 of 20 shots, but scored seven of
his 16 points in a tight fourth quarter for
Golden State. Harrison Barnes added 14
points.
These games are character builders for us
because were trying to do something spe-
cial, ONeal said. Not every game is going
to be easy for us. Were going to have
nights like tonight where guys like myself
are going to have to step up.
Ryan Anderson had 21 points and 12
rebounds for New Orleans. Davis nished
with 14 points and 11 rebounds.
New Orleans appeared to be seizing
momentum when Davis dunk on a pick-and-
roll feed from Tyreke Evans tied it at 93.
Golden State called a timeout and respond-
ed with ONeals 11-foot turnaround jumper
and Thompsons 3.
Holiday, who had 17 points, responded
with a 3 and the Pelicans eventually pulled
to 100-99 when Davis tipped in an alley-
oop pass as he was fouled by Curry.

ALAMEDA Matt McGloins rapid ascent
from undrafted rookie to starting NFLquarter-
back is headed to the big stage.
McGloin will make his third career start on
Thanksgiving Day for the Oakland Raiders in
front of a national television audience
against the Dallas Cowboys.
McGloin has had an impressive start to his
NFLcareer despite failing to get invited to the
scouting combine or get drafted when he left
Penn State. He became the fourth quarterback
since the 1970 merger to throw three touch-
down passes and no interceptions in his rst
start, a 28-23 win at Houston.
He then threw the go-ahead touchdown pass
with 6:10 remaining last week against
Tennessee before watching the defense give
up the late lead in a 23-19 loss to the Titans.
Now he will try to get the Raiders (4-7)
back on the winning track against a Dallas
defense that has allowed the second-most
yards passing in the league this season.
Its a great opportunity for us, McGloin
said. Im sure everybody has grown up
watching that game with their families and to
be a part of it is something special. Were all
looking forward to it. Were excited about it.
Its going to be a tough atmosphere for foot-
ball, but well handle it.
McGloin enters the week as the unques-
tioned starter for the rst
time. He wasnt named the
starter for his rst game
until the day before when
Terrelle Pryor was ruled out
with a knee injury. Coach
Dennis Allen waited until
Wednesday last week to
announce McGloin as
starter but did not wait at
all this week.
It feels good, McGloin said. You dont
have to wonder or deal with it this week. It
gives you some relaxing, in terms of mental
preparation, kind of just focus on Dallas now
and not have to worry about whos starting.
For the second time in his three starts,
McGloin will be opposed by another undraft-
ed quarterback, albeit one with much more
experience and pedigree.
Tony Romo came into the NFL as an
undrafted rookie out of Eastern Illinois in
2003 and spent his rst two seasons on the
bench before replacing Drew Bledsoe as
starter midway through the 2006 season.
He quickly established himself as one of
the leagues top quarterbacks and parlayed
that success into a $108 million contract
extension last offseason and he takes pride in
the success of other undrafted quarterbacks.
I always root for the undrafted kid to come
up and have a chance to play and then they
perform pretty well, Romo said. I think
thats always exciting and good for the
league. I wish him the best.
After a sterling rst start, McGloin was up
and down last week. The positive was the late
TD pass to Marcel Reece and the last six full
drives leading to scores or field goal
attempts.
The negative was a second-quarter intercep-
tion that set up a eld goal by Tennessee and
big struggles on third down. After converting
the rst two tries of the game, the Raiders
converted just one of their last eight attempts
with McGloin throwing incompletions on
his last seven third-down throws.
That contributed to the six eld goal tries
as too many drives stalled.
Were that close, McGloin said. As frus-
trating as it is, its good to see how close we
are. Were communicating with one another.
Thats never been an issue. Just continue to
practice thats all we can do. But were right
there, its only a matter of time before we
break out and have a big game.
NOTES: RB Darren McFadden participated
in his rst practice since injuring his ham-
string Nov. 3 against Philadelphia and is
expected to play Thursday. Backup Rashad
Jennings leads the league with 553 yards
from scrimmage the past four weeks and will
also get time. ... LTJared Veldheer is on target
to play for the rst time since tearing his left
triceps in the preseason and Khalif Barnes
could move to left guard to make room.

SANTA CLARA Wide receiver Michael
Crabtree has been activated from the 49ers
physically unable to perform list.
The team made the expected announce-
ment Tuesday, the deadline to activate
Crabtree and still allow
him to play this season
after a 21-day window fol-
lowing his return to prac-
tice. The hope is that
Crabtree will make his
season debut for San
Francisco (7-4) in
Sundays home game
against St. Louis.
Crabtree had career
highs last season with 85
receptions for 1,105
yards and nine touchdowns and was a big
reason the 49ers returned to the Super Bowl
for the rst time in 18 years. He tore his
right Achilles tendon during 7-on-7 drills in
an organized team activity May 21 and had
surgery.
The 49ers

Its not something Ive seen over the
course of the season, Cavella said of
Menlos seemingly slow start to the rst
set. I think its just something that hap-
pened tonight. We usually start pretty well.
I think well be ne.
That rst set run by the Knights seemed to
deate Willows almost like they knew
that Menlo had an extra gear they simply
could not match.
Set two began much differently. This time
the Knights jumped out to a 4-0 lead and,
behind Cairos service (again) Menlo built
on that and turned it into an 11-point advan-
tage. Elisa Merten did her best to spread the
offensive wealth. Maddie Huber, Lida
Vandermeer and Dressel got in on the kill
action. Willows best run of the set got them
to within six, but Dressels net play and
Hubers repower carried the Knights to a
25-16 win.
The third set was elementary work for the
Knights. Vandermeer was Menlos main
offensive source. She picked up four kills
in a set the Knights dominated, winning
the last nine points to put Willows away
and pick up the victory.
Vandermeer led all hitters with 13 kills,
hitting .542 in the process. Maddie
Stewart added eight kills and Dressel fin-
ished with five.
Cairo was a beast from the service line.
She nished with nine aces and also added
16 digs. Huber had 12 digs of her own.
Merten dished out 30 assists.
Itll get awfully intense as we move for-
ward in NorCals, Cavella said looking for-
ward to Saturday night for a match that will
be hosted at Menlo. Our mindset is, take it
one match at a time, one set at a time, one
play at at time. Well just get better and bet-
ter every match.

NEWYORK Alex Rodriguezs lawyers
updated his lawsuit against Major League
Baseball and Bud Selig, adding new criti-
cism of the commissioner for not testify-
ing in the unions grievance to overturn
the 211-game suspension given to the New
York Yankees star last summer.
The lawyers filed a 33-page amended
complaint Tuesday in federal court in
Manhattan, expanding on the suit origi-
nally filed Oct. 3 in New York Supreme
Court.
Arbitrator Fredric Horowitz last week
refused to compel Selig to testify in the
grievance, and Rodriguez then walked out
of the hearing without testifying. The
sides rested last Thursday after 12 days of
sessions, and a decision on whether to
uphold or alter the discipline is expected in
January.
Mr. Selig chose to hide in his office in
Milwaukee rather than come testify at the
grievance hearing in New York. In Mr.
Seligs world, apparently the buck does
not stop with Bud, the new complaint
said. Mr. Selig lacked the courage of his
convictions to explain under oath the rea-
sons for the suspension and the conduct of
his investigators. His
silence on these issues
speaks volumes and
leads to only one logical
conclusion his
actions, and those of the
MLB personnel he con-
trols, were aimed at
destroying the reputa-
tion, career and business
prospects of Alex
Rodriguez.
Rodriguez was suspended Aug. 5 for
alleged violations of the sports drug
agreement and labor contract, and he
played pending a determination of the
grievance.
As he did in the original complaint,
Rodriguez accused Selig of conducting a
witch hunt against him. The three-time
AL MVP criticized the methods MLB
employed in its investigation of the
Biogenesis of America anti-aging clinic,
accused of distributing banned perform-
ance-enhancing drugs.
A-Rods lawyers included a photograph
of Selig posing with a fan wearing a red
shirt that had A-ROID written across the
front. While the lawsuit attributes the
photo to NESN.com, the NESNs website
says the photo was from the 2009 All-Star
FanFest and was taken
from NBCSportsRadios
Twitter feed.
Sadly, this cowardly
stance by Mr. Selig is
consistent with his past
and highly inappropriate
conduct in posing, smil-
ingly, with a young fan
wearing a T-shirt with a
derogatory message
directed at Mr. Rodriguez, the amended
lawsuit said. One cannot imagine the
Commissioner of any other professional
sport or indeed the CEO of any business
doing something similar with respect to
one of his or her players or employees.
MLB had the suit removed to federal
court, and Rodriguezs lawyers are trying
to persuade U.S. District Judge Lorna G.
Schofield to remand the case back to New
York state court. Ahearing is scheduled for
Jan. 23.
Rodriguez claimed Selig interfered with
his existing contracts and prospective
business relationships. MLB says the case
should be heard in federal court because of
provisions of the Labor Management
Relations Act, known as Taft-Hartley, and
intends to ask for the suit to be dismissed.
Later Tuesday, Rodriguezs lawyers
released a stack of documents, including a
presentation dated Oct. 21. They called a
news conference for that evening with the
intent to release papers, only to be
blocked by an order from Horowitz. The
presentation criticizes the conduct of sev-
eral MLB investigators and New York City
Police.
The lawyers also released statements of
several people who were on Rodriguezs
witness list but never testified at the griev-
ance hearing.
Marcelo Albir and Lazaro Collazo
accused MLBs investigators of harass-
ment, which the league denies. Gary L.
Jones, who says he was a friend of Porter
Fischer, said he was paid $125,000 in
$100 bills by MLB Senior Vice President
Dan Mullin at the Cosmos Diner in
Pompano Beach, Fla., last March and
$25,000 by Mullin in $50s and $100s for
additional documents the following
month. He also states Jones told Mullin
that the documents had been stolen.
MLB says the first payment was
$100,000 and denies the comments Jones
attributed to Mullin.
Robert Davis Miller alleged Biogenesis
founder Anthony Bosch told him he was
being paid $5 million by MLB in monthly
installments, which the league also denies.
In revised suit, A-Rod accuses Selig of cowardice

lead SHP to its third straight CCS Division II title. In the
seminals and nals, Enright combined to score eight goals
with four assists, earning him the Daily Journals Athlete of
the Week honors.
The 2-meter, or hole set, is equivalent to a forward or cen-
ter in basketball. His back is mostly to the goal and he has
to establish his position and then hold the defender off with
his backside. Its a thankless job that more often than not
results in the hole set being pummeled and all but drowned as
he tries to catch the ball in the set and then turn and get a
shot off.
Alot of time, it just doesnt happen. Either his teammates
cant get the ball into Enright or the defense collapses on
him. But Enright bides his time. When his shot isnt falling,
hes more than happy to distribute to teammates.
But when it comes to crunch time, just like a dominant cen-
ter of forward in basketball, Enright wants the ball in his
hands and he delivers.
Sacred Heart Prep had more than enough to top Soquel
without Enrights four goals. Take away his four tallies and
the Gators still win 13-8. But his mere presence opens up the
offense for the rest of his teammates.
His goals against Menlo School in the CCS champi-
onship game, however, were much more timely. The Knights
did a good job of bottling up Enright through the rst three
quarters, holding him to just one assist in the rst half.
But when the Knights lost the services of Nick Bisconti,
who was marking Enright, to his third ejection, Enright
immediately went to work. He scored his rst goal of the
match with 3:30 left in the third period tied the score at 6 and
his assist from the set to his brother, Jackson, on the left
wing resulted in the Gators rst lead of the match, 7-6, with
11 seconds to play in the third period.
In the fourth period, it was all Enright as Menlo did not
have an answer for the 6-3, 215-pound hole set. Enright
scored three times over the nal seven minutes of the game
and it was his goal with 6:26 left that proved to be difference.
Enright managed a shot just as the shot-clock buzzer sound-
ed, but the ball was blocked by Menlo goalie John Wilson
but the rebound went right back to Enright, who buried the
rebound for an 8-6 lead.
The referees met to discuss whether Enrights rst shot was
released before the buzzer. It was determined it did and the
goal stood. Enrights second goal of the period pushed the
Gators lead back to two, 9-7, following a Menlo goal. His
nal goal with 1:31 left sealed the win for Sacred Heart Prep.
It was Enrights third straight CCS championship and
fourth consecutive trip to the nals.
Harrison was just a beast in the fourth quarter, SHPcoach
Brian Kreutzkamp said following the match Saturday.
[Menlo did] a good job of double- and triple-teaming him.
But when they got a little tired, thats when [Enright] took
over the game.

DAILY JOURNAL SPORTS FILE
Sacred Heart Preps Harrison Enright combined for eight
goals and four assists in the seminals and nals as he helped
lead the Gators to a third straight CCS Division II title
I think [her ankle is] pretty much good, Spievack said. I
didnt feel like I needed to cover for her and she could handle
herself very well.
The win caps another phenomenal year for Iinuma who, in
three high school seasons, has yet to lose a PAL regular-sea-
son match. This year, after going undefeated as the Knights
No. 3 singles player, she teamed with Spievack to win the
PAL doubles title and now the CCS championship.
Im super happy, Iinuma said. I cant even express how
happy I am.
Carlmonts Cori Sidell, on the other hand, did not have a
happy ending to her season. After winning two matches
Monday, the third-seeded Sidell played a seminal match
Tuesday against second-seeded Liz Yao of Menlo School.
Sidell gave it her best, but Yao pulled out a tough, straight-
set win, 6-3, 7-6. That win sent Yao into the championship
match against Mittys Catalina Rico, the No. 1 seed.
Yao went on to beat Rico in three sets, 6-2, 1-6, 6-4 to
clinch the CCS singles crown.
TENNIS
Javier Lopez tested the market just as he wanted to do, then
wound up right back where he has become so comfortable at
this stage of his career.
On Tuesday, the free-agent left-hander nalized his new
$13 million, three-year contract to stay
with the San Francisco Giants.
Lopez agreed to terms on the deal last
Thursday, but needed to travel to the Bay
Area to undergo his physical before sign-
ing the contract.
I feel like I went through the process
the way I wanted to, obviously with keep-
ing the Giants in the know and keeping
them front and center in the whole situa-
tion, Lopez said. I did just want to reach
out and see what kind of interest there was
around the league and gauge the thoughts of my family, but
ultimately San Francisco was No. 1 the entire time and thats
ultimately how it worked out.
He will earn $4 million in both 2014 and 15 and $5 mil-
lion in 2016. The contract includes up to $500,000 in incen-
tives based on games pitched.
The 36-year-old Lopez went 4-2 with a 1.83 ERA in 69
appearances and 39 1-3 innings this year. He just completed
an $8.5 million, two-year contract.
Keeping Lopez was among the top offseason priorities for
general manager Brian Sabean after his club missed the play-
offs following its second World Series title in three years dur-
ing 2012.

Thanksgiving and Hanukkah together at the table
By Jim Romanoff
Its a meeting of holidays so rare it will be tens of thou-
sands of years before it happens again. Thanksgiving and
the rst day of Hanukkah the Jewish Festival of Lights
fall on the same day this year, creating what many cele-
brants have dubbed Thanksgivukkah. And its opened up a
whole new world of culinary opportunities.
Laura Frankel, executive chef for Wolfgang Puck Kosher
Catering in Chicago, mused that the two holidays occurring
in tandem presents a sort of mini existential crisis: Do I
celebrate as a Jewish American or as an American Jew.
She decided on the latter.
After all, she said, I feel blessed to live in a country
where we are free to celebrate our religious beliefs however
we want. And thats not something one should take for
granted in this world.
Plus, Frankel feels the holidays work well together in a
traditional as well as a culinary sense. Both Thanksgiving
and Hanukkah are celebrations of appreciation, says
Frankel. The former is about being grateful for our country
and the latter fetes the miracle of a small amount of oil burn-
ing for eight days and the dedication of the new temple in
Jerusalem.
As far as the food is concerned, both are holidays are lled
with traditions rather than hard and fast rules. Hanukkah is
one of the few Jewish holidays when were not specically
told what to eat, Frankel says. Frying foods in oil is really
symbolic rather than essential.
So on Thanksgiving itself, Frankel plans on bringing a
little Hanukkah spirit to her traditional Thanksgiving din-
ner by, for one thing, serving sweet potato latkes with a
cranberry-apple sauce alongside the turkey.
The key to the sweet potato latkes is to start with a white
potato, such as a russet, to make the batter, then add shred-
ded sweet potatoes. On their own, sweet potatoes dont have
enough starch to hold together well and contain too much
sugar, which causes them to burn easily, she says. The blend
will give you perfectly crisp and golden, but slightly sweet

Pastrami. Horseradish. Matzo. Frying in
oil. All the makings of a traditional Jewish
holiday meal. But this time, we add turkey, a
nod to the rst day of Hanukkah falling on
Thanksgiving this year.
To keep this lusciously savory dinner on
the speedy side, we started with turkey ten-
derloins. They cook quickly and you dont
need to worry about thawing them as you
often do with a whole turkey. We then wrap
the tenderloins in pastrami, coat them in
matzo and fry them until crisp on the out-
side, but moist and tender inside.
The breaded pastrami wrap on the turkey
adds a great skin to the otherwise simple
turkey tenderloin. The pickled onions have
a subtle bite from the horseradish. Of
course, putting this together requires a little
more hands-on time than throwing a turkey
in the oven, but the reward is in the taste.
PASTRAMI-WRAPPED FRIED TURKEY
WITH HORSERADISH PICKLED ONIONS
Start to nish: 1 hour (30 minutes active)
Servings: 12
For the pickled onions:
1 cup red wine vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons pickling spice
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1/2 cup prepared horseradish
2 medium red onions, thinly sliced
For the turkey:
3 pounds turkey tenderloins
8 ounces thinly sliced pastrami
2 eggs
2 tablespoons spicy brown mustard
1 tablespoon all-purpose our
1 1/2 cups matzo meal
Vegetable oil, for frying
In a medium saucepan over medium-high
heat, combine the vinegar, sugar, pickling
spice, salt and horseradish. Bring to a boil,
then add the onions. Return to a boil, cover
and remove from the heat. Let sit until cool.
The onions can be prepared up to 2 days in
advance. Store in a covered container in the
refrigerator.
Wrap each turkey tenderloin in several
slices of pastrami, securing them with
wooden skewers as needed.
In a wide, shallow bowl, whisk together
the eggs, mustard and our. In a second
bowl, spread the matzo meal. One at a time,
roll each tenderloin in the egg mixture to
coat evenly. Transfer to the matzo meal and
roll to coat. The tenderloins can be prepared
in this manner up to several hours ahead of
time, then covered and refrigerated.
When ready to cook, heat the oven to 350
F.
In a large, deep saute pan, heat 1/2 inch of
oil until it sizzles when a matzo crumb is
dropped into it. One at a time, fry each ten-
derloin for 5 to 7 minutes per side, or until
golden brown all over. Transfer to a rimmed
baking sheet, then repeat with the remain-
ing tenderloins.
When all of the tenderloins are fried,
place them in the oven for 25 to 30 min-
utes, or until they reach 165 F at the center.
Serve with the pickled onions on the side.
Pastrami-wrapped bird for Hanukkah and Turkey Day
Breaded pastrami wrap on the turkey adds a great skinto an otherwise simple turkey tenderloin.
By Alison Ladman
Part of what makes the traditional
Thanksgiving stufng so irresistible is its
delicious blend of lightly crisped top and
sides with a tender and moist inside.
Turns out that combination also happens
to be the mark of a great fried potato latke,
one of the most iconic foods of Hanukkah.
And since this year marks the rare conver-
gence of Thanksgiving and the rst day of
Hanukkah, we decided to see whether we
could unite these classic comfort foods in
one dish.
The result is a wonderfully rich stufng
topped by a crispy layer of fried latkes. And
its good enough that you may want to make
it for years to come, regardless of when
Hanukkah or Thanksgiving fall on the cal-
endar.

latkes.
Bruce Aidells, chef and author of The
Great Meat Cookbook, is bringing
Hanukkah to his Turkey Day with some
sides as well. He and his wife Nancy
Oakes, chef-owner of Boulevard in San
Francisco, will start the meal with crispy,
mini potato latkes topped with caviar
(though Aidells says smoked salmon
makes a great topping, as well).
To go along with his bird, Aidells will
take some inspiration from his grand-
mother, who owned a Jewish deli in the
Boyle Heights neighborhood of Los
Angeles, and make a sweet potato, prune
and carrot tzimmes, which is a typical
Eastern European sweet stew often served
at holidays.
The sweet potatoes and carrots will fit
right in with the Thanksgiving theme,
says Aidells.
For dessert, Aidells suggests a variation
on the traditional Hanukkah doughnuts,
sufganiyot, filled or topped with a sweet
cranberry or apple compote.
Laura Frankel is thinking sufganiyot as
well, but taking the idea a step further by
making the traditional yeast dough with
the addition of canned pumpkin, which she
says adds great flavor and color.
For other nights during Hanukkah this
year, Frankel says she shell take advan-
tage of the availability of fresh turkey.
Shes created a turkey spiedini in which
bite-size chunks of breast meat will be
threaded onto skewers, dipped in lightly
beaten egg whites, then dusted with sea-
soned panko breadcrumbs and fried in
olive oil. For dipping, shell serve the
spiedinis with a roasted pumpkin seed,
garlic, raisin and sage pesto.
To help you get in the Thanksgiving-
Hanukkah mood, weve developed a deli-
cious holiday hybrid. These latke-crusted
turkey cutlets can be made with leftover
brisket (perhaps from the first night of
Hanukkah), or if you like you can leave the
meat out of the latke batter with equally
good results. The Meyer lemon applesauce
makes a perfect topping for this crispy
dish, but leftover cranberry sauce would
work as well.
LATKE CRUSTED TURKEY CUTLETS
Start to finish: 25 minutes
Servings: 6
10 tablespoons all-purpose flour, divid-
ed
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup grated sweet onion
20-ounce bag fresh shredded potatoes
(about 4 cups)
3/4 pound finely shredded or chopped
cooked brisket or corned beef
4 egg whites, whisked until frothy
1 1/4 pounds fresh turkey breast cutlets
2 whole eggs, lightly beaten
Peanut or vegetable oil, for frying
Heat the oven to 350 F.
In a small bowl, whisk together 6 table-
spoons of the flour, the salt, pepper and
baking powder. Set aside.
Place the grated onion on a clean dish
cloth or several layers of paper towels,
gather up the edges to form a bundle.
Holding the bundle over the sink, squeeze
out at much liquid as possible.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the
onion, potatoes, brisket, flour mixture and
egg whites. Mix well to make a batter that
is loose, but holds together well, adding a
bit more flour if necessary. Set aside.
Place the remaining 4 tablespoons of
flour in a wide, shallow bowl. Place the 2
whole eggs in a second wide, shallow
bowl.
To prepare the cutlets, one at a time dip
each first in the flour, then the beaten
eggs. Then use your hands press 1/3 cup of
the potato mixture evenly onto one side of
each cutlet.
In a large skillet over medium-high, heat
about 1/4 inch of oil until a shred of pota-
to dropped into the oil sizzles immediate-
l y.
Working in batches, add the cutlets pota-
to side down, to the skillet. Cook until the
potatoes are crispy and browned and the
turkey is no longer pink at the center, 4 to
5 minutes. Press another 1/3 cup of the
potato mixture on top of each turkey cut-
let, then flip and brown on the second side
for another 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a
rimmed baking sheet, then repeat with
remaining cutlets.
Bake for 10 minutes, or until the turkey
reaches 165 F at the center.
Serve immediately with Meyer lemon
applesauce.

HANUKKAH
W
ith Thanksgiving falling on
the first day of Hanukkah, I
wanted to look for ways to
blend a little each holiday at the same
table.
And it turns out the
fruit is a fine place to
start. Because cooked
fruit enjoys starring
roles in both holidays.
For Hanukkah, there
often is applesauce, a
sweet and refreshing
counterpoint to
savory, crispy potato
latkes. And for
Thanksgiving, a din-
ner spread is incom-
plete without a sweet and tart cranberry
sauce even if its from a can.
These fruits complement one another so
wonderfully, there actually are numerous
ways to combine them. You could chop
raw cranberries and apples, then toss them
with sweetened lemon juice, red onion and
minced jalapenos for a fresh salsa-like
accompaniment.
Or you could simply combine peeled
apples and fresh cranberries and simmer
them together with cinnamon, sugar and
lemon juice for a sauce that is a little bit
applesauce, a little bit cranberry sauce.
But I decided to go with a skillet sauce. I
cut the apples into wedges, then saute
them until just barely tender. Then I add
dried cranberries because they have a great
contrasting texture. Let the whole thing
cook for a few minutes, then finished it
with crushed pistachios. Great with turkey
or latkes.
SKILLET APPLE-CRANBERRY
SAUCE WITH PISTACHIOS
Servings: 6
1 tablespoon butter
4 large apples, peeled, cored and cut into
1/2-inch wedges
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1/3 cup water
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
1 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup crushed toasted pistachios
In a large skillet over medium-high,
melt the butter. Add the apples and cook
until lightly browned on all sides, 5 to 7
minutes. Add the vinegar, water, brown
sugar, cinnamon, cardamom and cranber-
ries. Stir well and bring to a simmer. Cook
until the liquid is thick and syrupy, 2 to 3
minutes.
Spoon the apple-cranberry sauce into a
serving bowl, then top with the pista-
chios. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Thanksgiving includes gluten-free pies, more
2 cups low-sodium chicken or turkey
broth or stock
Heat the oven to 350 F. Coat a large
casserole dish or a 9-by-13-inch pan
with cooking spray.
Into a medium bowl lined with sever-
al layers of paper towels or a clean
kitchen towel, shred the potatoes.
Gather the towels with the potatoes
inside and squeeze out as much liquid as
possible. Discard the liquid, dry the
bowl, then return the potatoes to the
bowl, removing the towels. Stir in 2 of
the eggs, the our, sage and a hefty
pinch each of salt and pepper.
In a large skillet over medium-high,
heat 1/4 inch of oil over medium-high.
Working in batches, drop the potato
mixture in 1/4 cup mounds into the oil,
attening them with the back of a spat-
ula. Cook until golden brown on both
sides, about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
Transfer the latkes to a paper towel-
lined plate and repeat with the remain-
ing potato mixture.
In a food processor, combine the
onion, celery, carrots and green pep-
per. Pulse until nely chopped.
Drain all but 1/4 cup of the oil from
the pan used to cook the latkes. Set the
pan over medium heat, then transfer
the vegetable mixture to it and cook
until lightly browned and tender, 5 to 7
minutes. Transfer the mixture to a large
bowl, then add the chives, apples and
challah. Season with a hefty sprinkle
each of salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, whisk together the
2 remaining eggs and the broth. Pour
over the stufng mixture and mix well.
Spoon the stufng into the prepared
pan. Arrange the latkes over the top.
Wrap with foil or cover and bake for 35
minutes. Remove the foil or cover and
continue baking for 10 minutes, or
until 165 F in the center.

NEWYORK Three different types
of stufng will be offered on Stacy
Foxs table this Thanksgiving: tradi-
tional, gluten-free and vegan.
There will be steak for people who
dont like turkey. No eggs will be used
in the latkes, or Jewish potato pan-
cakes. And the sweet potato pie will be
topped with vegan marshmallows she
buys at a health food store.
My life used to be simple, said
Fox, whos entertaining 18 guests in
Suffern, N.Y.
At homes across the country this
Thursday, tables will be set to accom-
modate everyone from vegans and veg-
etarians to those trying to eat like
cavemen. The increasingly complicat-
ed feasts reect the growing ranks of
Americans who are paying closer
attention to the food they put into
their bodies.
The reasons vary. With two-thirds of
the U.S. population either overweight
or obese, many nd setting rules helps
ward off temptation. In other cases,
people steer clear of ingredients such
as dairy to alleviate bloating or to
boost energy. Others worry about the
long-term impact of artificial dyes,
preservatives and antibiotics in their
food.
While the dietary quirks of relatives
or friends may seem like a mere curios-
ity on Thanksgiving, theyre reshap-
ing the food industry. Sales of organic
packaged foods rose 24 percent to
$11.48 billion over the past five
years, according to market researcher
Euromonitor International. Gluten-
free packaged foods, made for those
who are sensitive to wheat, more than
doubled to $419.8 million. And the
broader market of packaged foods tar-
geted toward people with food intoler-
ances to things like wheat, dairy or
sugar rose 12 percent to $2.89 billion.
By introducing gluten-free varieties
of Chex cereal in recent years, General
Mills says it was able to reverse years
of declines and get sales growing
again. So far this year, the company
says sales are up 6 percent from the
same time last year, although it did not
give the actual gure.
Hillshire Brands has expanded the
number of sausages and meatballs
made without antibiotics under its
higher-end Aidells brand, which has
been a bright spot for the company.
And sales of Tofurky, the tofu-based
turkey alternative for vegetarians,
have grown each year since it was
introduced in 1995, said founder and
president Seth Tibbott.
Back when Tofurky was rolled out,
only about 500 were sold in health
food stores in Portland and Seattle.
This year, Tibbott expects to sell
about 350,000 of the loaves, which
resemble round, boneless turkey
breasts lled with stufng.
People do say its close to turkey,
Tibbott said, noting that the company
has worked to achieve the hint of
gaminess that distinguishes turkey
from chicken.
Even with all the new food options,
however, many remain Thanksgiving
traditionalists. As a result, some with
dietary restrictions nd that they still
have to make concessions when eating
at relatives houses.
Alison Johnson, for instance, real-
izes it would be unreasonable to expect
her in-laws to cater to her many prefer-
ences this holiday. Shes a vegetarian
and she and her husband are on a Paleo
diet that shuns processed foods,
legumes and most sugars. So for
Thanksgiving, she plans to relax her
rules a bit, stick to the side dishes and
bring along her own Paleo-friendly
pumpkin bars for dessert.
When you start saying youre dia-
betic and Paleo and vegetarian, they
would just throw their hands up and
give up, said Johnson, who runs a
recruiting rm in the Albany, N.Y. ,
region. I have to accommodate
myself.
In other households, those with
dietary restrictions have taken con-
trol. Daniel Albaugh, personal trainer
in Houston, said his family feasts on
Tofurky and stopped bothering with a
turkey a few years ago. He and his
ance are vegans, as are his mother
and sister.
We outnumber them now, said
Albaugh, 31, of his stepfather and
grandmother. They dont mind it. We
gradually stopped accommodating the
meat eaters.
Making special dishes for those
with dietary restrictions isnt just
about pacifying the squeaky wheel
either. When one family member
makes a change to their diet, it can
have a ripple effect, particularly dur-
ing the holidays when food is center
stage.
Eddie Garza, a sustainability coordi-
nator for a real estate company in
Dallas, said he became a vegan 10
years ago after growing up on the
typical American diet.
Over the years, he made it a point to
educate his family about the health,
environmental and ethical reasons for
his lifestyle. And while there will still
be a turkey on the table this year, a
tofu alternative is now a staple too. In
fact, Garza, 36, is bringing four
Gardein-brand tofu alternatives to din-
ner because his relatives always end up
eating some.
His mother, Emma Martinez, says
she grew up on a meat-centric diet in
Mexico. But the retired school nurse
has cut down on signicantly on meat
and other animal products, even when
Eddie isnt at home. She even likes the
tofu roast as much as the turkey.
I dont really see too much of a dif-
ference, its just a matter of getting
used to something, said Martinez, 64.

Back when Tofurky was rolled out, only about 500 were sold
in health food stores in Portland and Seattle.This year,Tibbott
expects to sell about 350,000 of the loaves, which resemble
round, boneless turkey breasts lled with stufng.

who is behind it, Esselstein said.
The way its written makes it sound like its an
either/or and its not, its an and, said Trustee Margi
Power.
The new administrator could help deal with the larger
scope of work ahead of the district, she added.
Some of the changes the district plans on tackling include
integrating new Common Core curriculum, the statewide
shift to more project-based learning, with less time spent
on lectures and more of an emphasis on students using tech-
nology in classrooms. Additionally, plans recommended
from HCSD Forwards stategic planning group, new teacher
evaluations, a new principal at the South School, new staff
and portables in need of remodel at the West School, a new
schedule at Crocker Middle School and other transitions
occurring in the district, Trustee Mary Ellen Benninger said.
The assistant superintendent would be in charge of over-
seeing administrative procedures, managing projects and
programs and collaborating with and providing support for
other administrators, according to a staff report.
Theres no way one person can do that all and well,
Benninger said. We were the ones who said
(Superintendent) Anthony (Ranii), we need help. Im always
the most frugal and I was the rst to say we need to hire an
assistant superintendent.
The school board did vote unanimously at its Oct. 22
meeting to approve salary increases for teachers during the
2013-14 school year.
Some audience members, including Crocker parent Kathy
Liu, said theyd like to see the money more directly spent
on the students. Former district parent Drew Wall also had
concerns about costs.
Disagreement doesnt mean we dont support you, Wall
said. It comes with a pension and overhead and the real
cost is more like $400,000 a year.
Meanwhile, Trustee Greg Dannis said theres not a lot of
risk with the hire and that its the right move.
Other parents like Sarah Murphy, who regularly attends
meetings, said she knows the trustees are hugely committed
to the childrens education and it is time to rebuild the dis-
trict. Another parent, a business owner, said she cant imag-
ine running a company without a director of operations, so
she understands why the district wants to hire an assistant
superintendent. The district eliminated the assistant super-
intendent role in the 2008-09 school year during the eco-
nomic downturn.
Some parents suggested hiring a temporary consultant
rather than a long-term employee. Esselstein added the title
of assistant superintendent is a misnomer in a sense since
the position is more like a director of operations. The dis-
trict needs to advertise the position with the assistant
superintendent title though since this a job of this types
ofcial name.
We wouldnt pitch this as a temporary job, said
Esselstein. Its not a short-term job, its for long-term
projects.
Esselstein concluded the Monday morning meeting by
saying the board will be thoughtful with how it proceeds.
The board will update the public on the next steps moving
forward with the position, she said.

PROVIDENCE, R.I. Shoppers wont be
lining up for Thanksgiving Day deals at
stores in Rhode Island, Maine and
Massachusetts. They cant .
Its the legacy of so-called blue laws,
which prohibit large supermarkets, big box
stores and department stores from opening
on Thanksgiving. Some business groups
complain, but many shoppers, workers and
even retailers say theyre satised with a
one-day reprieve from work and holiday
shopping.
Some business groups complain its an
unnecessary barrier during an era of 24-hour
online shopping, and there have been some
recent failed legislative attempts to change
things. But many shoppers, workers and
even retailers say theyre satised with the
status quo: a one-day reprieve from work and
holiday shopping.
I shop all year. People need to be with
their families on Thanksgiving, said Debra
Wall, of Pawtucket, R.I., who will remain
quite happily at home Thursday, cooking a
meal for 10.
The holiday shopping frenzy has crept
deeper than ever into Thanksgiving this
year. Macys, J.C. Penney and Staples will
open on Thanksgiving for the rst time.
Toys R Us will open at 5 p.m., and Wal-
Mart, already open 24 hours in many loca-
tions, will start holiday deals at 6 p.m., two
hours earlier than last year. In recent years,
some retail employees and their supporters
have started online petitions to protest
stores that open on Thanksgiving but
shoppers keep coming.
Bill Rennie, vice president of the
Retailers Association of Massachusetts,
said many shoppers are crossing into border
states that allow Thanksgiving shopping,
including Connecticut, Vermont, New York
or New Hampshire, which is even more
alluring because it doesnt have a sales tax.
Why not give stores in Massachusetts
the option? he said.
The group has backed legislation, which
has so far gone nowhere, to roll back the
laws and allow stores to open on
Thanksgiving and Christmas.
That would include grocery stores, which
also must stay closed on the holidays. Woe
to the Massachusetts cook who forgets a cru-
cial ingredient or messes up the turkey and is
forced to nd a replacement at a convenience
store. Convenience stores are allowed to
open, as are movie theaters, pharmacies,
restaurants and some other businesses.
The laws do not prohibit stores from
opening at non-traditional hours Friday, and
some will open at midnight or 1 a.m., when
holiday deals will start.
Blue laws were once widespread through-
out the country and are thought to date back
to Colonial times, although some of the cur-
rent regulations in Maine were instituted in
the 1960s. The name may be derived from an
18th-century usage of blue meaning rigidly
moral, according to the Encyclopedia
Brittanica.
The rules vary among the states. Retailers
smaller than 5,000 square feet can operate in
Maine, for example.
Thanksgiving and Christmas are the main
holidays affected in all three states, but in
Massachusetts, blue laws also prohibit
stores from opening on the mornings of
Columbus and Veterans Day without state
permission. Easter and New Years Day are
also sometimes included.
Rhode Island lawmakers have in recent
years rolled back blue law prohibitions on
Sunday sales of alcohol and cars, but the
Thanksgiving ban remains. Maine lawmak-
ers shot down legislation this year that
would have allowed stores to open on the
holiday.
Law enforcement officials in all three
states said there had been no recent incidents
they could recall of retailers breaking the
law. In 2005, Massachusetts Attorney
General Tom Reilly sent a warning letter to
upscale grocery chain Whole Foods after a
competitor discovered it was planning to
open on Thanksgiving. In Maine, a viola-
tion is punishable by up to six months in
prison and a $1,000 ne.
Maine allows certain sporting goods
stores to remain open, an exemption that
allows Freeport-based outdoor retailer L.L.
Bean to operate 24 hours per day, 365 days
per year. Spokeswoman Carolyn Beem said
workers sign up for shifts on a volunteer
basis and get paid extra for working the hol-
iday. She said they generally have more vol-
unteers than shifts on what she calls a gen-
erally slower business day.
But along the New Hampshire border, the
Kittery Trading Post in Kittery, Maine, will
remain closed, even though it could operate
under the same exemption, said vice presi-
dent Fox Keim. He said giving employees
the day off is part of the stores core val-
ues.
Whats more important to us is keeping
our staff happy and keeping morale at the
company at a high level, he said.
Diane Mareira, who has worked for BJs
Wholesale Club for 29 years and now man-
ages its store in Northborough, Mass., said
she remembers the days when people spent
Sundays home with their families, but said
that has all changed. BJs, which operates
stores in 15 states, wont open until Friday,
even in states that allow it.
Thanksgiving shopping? Not in states that ban it
Whats more important to us is keeping our
staff happy and keeping morale at the company at a high level.
Fox Keim, vice president of Kittery Trading Post in Kittery, Maine

that they dont have entitlements and
they purchased the property. But it
probably was a case where the property
was the right price at the right time, so
they decided to take the plunge, said
Eric Reed, a former planning commis-
sioner elected Nov. 5 to the City
Council. He will join Charles Stone on
the council after Councilman Dave
Warden and Feierbach opted out of re-
election.
Reed has been in support of the
schools proposal since the beginning
and has vowed to continue to do so,
however, there are no guarantees itll
be allowed to develop its new campus,
he said. He is interested in seeing what
the school presents to the city, Reed
said.
Councilman Warren Lieberman was
also caught off guard by the schools
recent purchase of the property, but is
happy its planning the move.
Im delighted that Crystal Springs
has such faith in Belmont and sees us as
such a desirable community,
Lieberman said. I look forward to
hearing from them what they will pro-
pose.
With a large amount of community
support, Feierbachs approach, and
with two new councilmen in the citys
near future, the school decided to pur-
chase the property before being assured
it could develop on it, Grossman said.
We had a lot of outpouring of sup-
port from the community members in
Belmont and it is really the perfect
location for our new middle school, so
we are excited to have another chance
to partner with Belmont, Grossman
said.
The nonprot private schools cam-
pus in Hillsborough currently holds
about 350 sixth- through 12th-graders,
but the longtime goal has been to
expand, Grossman said. It hopes
Belmont will become home to a sixth-
through eighth-grade campus with up
to 240 students and focus the
Hillsborough campus on high school,
Grossman said.
The school intends on creating an
ecologically friendly LEED silver cam-
pus with the Portland-based design rm
Boora Architects, Grossman said.
Although it would like to draw from its
previous designs and applications,
Grossman said a lot remains to be
determined.
In the last go-around, the city
expressed concerns with trafc impacts
and not receiving property taxes since
the school is a nonprot, Grossman
said. At the time, the school offered a
one-time payment of $1 million and
$250,000 per year in-lieu of property
taxes, Grossman said. However, nei-
ther school or city representatives
know if that deal will still be on the
table.
The school hopes to have a sit-down
with city staff as soon as possible to
begin to work on moving forward,
Edwards said.
Our number one priority is to be
collaborative with city staff and the
residents and really work together on
this, Edwards said.
Even though the school is now the
rightful owner of its land, its going to
need entitlement approvals before it
can begin to develop.
Depending on what the school pres-
ents, it will need approvals to amend
the sites general plan, rezone the
property and have its environmental
study certified, said Community
Development Director Carlos de Melo.
Its too early to establish what the next
steps are, but the school will have to
approach the city with proposals and
follow city regulations, de Melo said.
We want to work together on the
issues and come to a great partnership
and resolution, Grossman said. We
would really like to be in Belmont and
we think wed be great neighbors.

sale agreements for 595 Industrial
Road, 850 E. San Carlos Ave. and 810
E. San Carlos Ave. Altogether, the
agreements total $13,690,000. Each
parcel is separately owned but repre-
sented by a single broker who has also
brought forward several interested
developers.
Each plot is also identied as a land-
mark property which the city previ-
ously earmarked for a hotel in its East
San Carlos Specic Plan.
The councils decision came after a
lengthy discussion about the nancial
plans and contingencies that could
void the agreement, such as toxic
chemicals.
Buyers remorse is not going to get
us out of this, Mayor Bob Grassilli
said.
Although no agreement is in place
with a developer at this time, the coun-
cil majority called the purchase a cal-
culated, intelligent risk.
Were investing in ourselves. Were
investing in our citizens,
Councilman Ron Collins said.
Community Development Director
Al Savay said the plan is to work
closely with the community to gener-
ate good support, particularly with the
Greater East San Carlos association
representing the neighboring area, and
encourage the chosen developer to
begin the building permit process
early.
The 3.91-acre land sale is a very
unique opportunity to realize long-
term plans and create a gateway proj-
ect, Savay said.
The funding for 595 Industrial Road
would come from the citys Strategic
Property Acquisition Reserve Fund
while the other two are subject to the
citys ability to get private nancing.
The nancing proposals are expected
to come back in January 2014 and con-
sultant Jim Simon of RSG said to
anticipate a ve-year loan.
Earlier this year, the city rezoned the
industrial area into a new landmark
commercial district to promote uses
with an economic benet, like a hotel.
All other uses will require conditional
use permits.
HOTEL
arrested at approximately 4 p.m. Nov.
22 at an undisclosed hotel in Millbrae
by a multi-agency effort targeting
human trafficking in Millbrae, said
Sheriffs Ofce spokeswoman Rebecca
Rosenblatt.
The investigators arranged a meet-
ing with Williams and Samson via the
website www.myredbook.com and
arrived to nd them and a woman they
were prostituting, Rosenblatt said.
The alleged prostitute was let go and
the other two arrested. Each were
booked into the county jail.
The sting was a joint operation by
the Sheriffs Office, Department of
Homeland Security investigators and
the police departments of South San
Francisco, Burlingame and San Mateo.
Credit cards found at the time of the
arrest also may be stolen, according to
the San Mateo County Sheriffs Ofce.
Rosenblatt said the operation is a
long-term effort and that the choice of
Millbrae as a targeted location does
not indicate it has any greater problem
than other cities with human trafck-
i ng.
On Wednesday, both appeared in
court and asked for court-appointed
attorneys. Both were charged with
felony counts of pimping and pander-
ing. Calvin is also charged with one
count of human trafcking. They both
return to court Dec. 9 for a preliminary
hearing.
Bail was set at $100,000 for Calvin
and $25,000 for Samson.

Minimal interaction is in your best interest.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Spend time with the
people who mean the most to you. Engaging in home
improvements that will enhance your comfort and
family fun should take top priority.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) A problem with personal
information will develop if you havent been completely
honest about your past. Address issues before its too
late, or you are likely to be compromised.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) No matter what you
do, you will shine. Explore new possibilities and learn
new skills. Opportunity will be in abundance if you are
receptive to whats being offered.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) A change of location or
hanging out with different people will be enlightening.
Dont let problems that arise slow you down or hold
you back. Deal with demands swiftly and move on.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Use your intellect
and knowledge to wheel and deal your way into the
limelight. The early bird catches the worm. Dont waste
time contemplating. Get the ball rolling.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Take care of pressing
matters concerning home or family so that you can get
back to jobs that lead to greater cash ow. Develop an
idea and present it to unique groups.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Changing the way or
where you live will be inspiring. Taking on a project
that allows you to work from home will lead to even
greater opportunities that involve travel and expansion.

WORLD 31
By Sarah El Deeb
CAIRO Black-clad Egyptian police
descended on two small anti-government
rallies in Cairo on Tuesday and red water
cannons to disperse them, enforcing a con-
troversial new law restricting protests. The
heavy hand fueled a backlash among secular
activists and liberals who accuse the mili-
tary-backed government of accelerating
down a path even more authoritarian than
the Hosni Mubarak era.
The scenes of protesters being dragged
away and beaten, with dozens arrested, pit-
ted security forces against secular youth
activists, in a new front after months of a
heavy and far bloodier crackdown on
Islamists since the armys ouster of
President Mohammed Morsi. Criticism
came even from supporters of the new mili-
tary-backed government, who warned that
the new law will increase opposition and
could push secular activists into a common
cause with Islamists.
The criticism presents a sharp challenge
to the government: It threatens to break the
loose coalition of secular and liberal politi-
cians and revolutionary activists who gave
key legitimacy to the militarys July 3
ouster of Morsi, Egypts rst freely elected
president.
That coalition argued that the militarys
move, following massive anti-Morsi
protests, was necessary for a democratic,
secular Egypt, accusing Morsis Muslim
Brotherhood of subverting the hopes for
change after Mubaraks fall in 2011. Its fac-
tions backed the military and government
or at least remained silent when secu-
rity forces in August crushed pro-Morsi
protest camps in a brutal crackdown that
killed hundreds.
Now discontent is growing, particularly
among young secular activists who led the
anti-Mubarak uprising and are already mis-
trustful of the military.
Many are further angered by the process of
amending the Morsi-era constitution, large-
ly done behind closed doors, because it is
likely to ensure greater powers for the mili-
tary and the president. They believe the
protest law aims to prevent criticism of the
new document, due to be put to a public ref-
erendum in January. Aday earlier, the power-
ful military chief Gen. Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi
said in a speech to ofcers that political fac-
tions should stop pushing unrealistic
demands and get in line behind the need to
bring security in the country.
Manal el-Tibi, a member of the state
National Council for Human Rights, said
that the interim government is creating
more enemies and the law will only
increase protests.

Prosecutor demands
guilty verdict for Knox
FLORENCE, Italy An Italian prosecu-
tor on Tuesday demanded that an appellate
court nd Amanda Knox
guilty of the 2007 murder
of her British roommate,
a killing he argued may
have been rooted in argu-
ments about cleanliness
and triggered by a toilet
left unushed by the only
man now in jail for the
murder.
Prosecutor Alessandro
Crini called for 26-year sentences for Knox
and Raffaele Sollecito, her co-defendant and
former boyfriend, following more than 10
hours of closing arguments over two days.
Knox and Sollecito deny any involvement
in the killing.
Crini departed from past scenarios by sug-
gesting the crime was not so much sexually
fueled an erotic game that got out of con-
trol, as the lower court prosecutor described
it but an act of physical violence with a
sexual expression.
France to send 1,000
troops to Cental African Republic
DAKAR, Senegal France promised
Tuesday to send 1,000 troops to Central
African Republic amid warnings about the
potential for genocide in the near-anarchic
former French colony.
Whether the French forces will save lives
largely depends on how far the foreign sol-
diers venture outside the capital, Bangui, to
the lawless provinces where mostly Muslim
rebels have been attacking Christian vil-
lages, and Christian militias have recently
launched retaliatory attacks.
The French move comes less than a week
after French Foreign Minister Laurent
Fabius warned the country is on the verge
of genocide and marks the second time this
year that France has sent troops to a former
colony in Africa.
