WINNERS; WHELDON DIES

Plans to move several county
departments to a twin set of ofce
buildings down the road from the
current Redwood City government
center may hinge on whether the
Board of Supervisors keeps its cur-
rent ofces or moves across the
courtyard.
Another consideration for one
supervisor is just how much space
the county needs to make for pro-
cessing inmates and parolees for-
merly managed by the state but now
kept local under so-called realign-
ment.
Both items will be front and cen-
ter Tuesday morning when the
Board of Supervisors is expected to
give some direction on when and
how to occupy the Circle Star prop-
erties it purchased for approximate-
ly $40 million.
The two four-story buildings offer
approximately 208,000 square feet
of space on approximately 6.04
acres. They sit on the border
between San Carlos and Redwood
City, with the property line actually
running straight through an adjacent
three-story parking structure. The
land is less than a mile from the cur-
rent county seat at 400, 455 and 500
County Government Center and
includes parking for approximately
700 vehicles inside and outside the
garage.
The county purchased the build-
ings with the express purpose of
freeing it from costly leases that run
between $191,000 and $600,000 a
month. Large blocks of leased space
come up for renewal in 2012, 2017
and 2020, according to Deputy
County Manager Peggy Jensen.
The plan to move into that site
will have a domino effect, in part
because another building at the gov-
ernment center 455 needs
retrotting work requiring it to be
fully emptied.

All over the Peninsula, city of-
cials have repeatedly stated that
escalating garbage rates are due pri-
marily to the region doing a better
job of recycling, causing Recology
customers to migrate to smaller
garbage cans.
With rates climbing despite
increased recycling efforts, city of-
cials in the region have consistently
said, we are victims of our own
success as they justify rate increas-
es to various commissions and
councils.
With the migration to smaller
cans, Recology is now seeking rate
increases from South Bay Waste
Management Authority members
that, in some cases, exceed 20 per-
cent for 2012. This request is on top
of rate increases passed by cities
earlier this year, after Recology took
over the service from Allied Waste
at the beginning of 2011.
Customers pay the rate based on
the size of their cart but Recologys
charges are simply related to travel
time and the number of lifts a truck
makes on its route. Regardless of
cart size, the trucks typically travel
the same distance on their routes
and typically make the same number
of lifts.

On Oct. 17, 1711, Jupiter Hammon, the rst black poet to have
his work published in America, was born on Long Island, N.Y.,
into a lifetime of slavery. (The date of his death is unknown,
although he apparently lived at least into his 80s.)
On this date:
In 1610, French King Louis XIII, age nine, was crowned at
Reims, ve months after the assassination of his father, Henry
IV.
In 1807, Britain declared it would continue to reclaim British-
born sailors from American ships and ports regardless of
whether they held U.S. citizenship.
In 1931, mobster Al Capone was convicted of income tax eva-
sion. (Sentenced to 11 years in prison, Capone was released in
1939.)
In 1933, Albert Einstein arrived in the United States as a
refugee from Nazi Germany.
In 1941, the U.S. destroyer Kearny was damaged by a German
torpedo off the coast of Iceland; 11 people died.
In 1961, French police attacked Algerians protesting a curfew
in Paris. (The resulting death toll varies widely, with some esti-
mates of up to 200.)
In 1973, Arab oil-producing nations announced they would
begin cutting back oil exports to Western nations and Japan;
the result was a total embargo that lasted until March 1974.
Ten years ago: With the threat of anthrax hovering over
Capitol Hill, congressional leaders closed six House and
Senate ofce buildings for decontamination; the U.S. House of
Representatives shut down for several days.

Pee Wee, Potter, Vader
honored at Scream Awards
UNIVERSAL CITY Heroes and
villains from the worlds of horror, fanta-
sy and sci- shared the stage at Spike
TVs annual Scream Awards.
More television event than traditional
awards ceremony, the Scream Awards
were presented in an amphitheater built
on the Universal Studios backlot just for
the occasion.
The Saturday night show was as much
about how the awards were presented as
who got them, but for starters, the top
honorees were Harry Potter, Darth Vader,
Nicolas Cage, Pee Wee Herman and
Robert Downey, Jr.
Resembling a psychedelic circus, one
side of the stage was a life-sized doll-
house populated by costumed characters,
the other a staircase topped by a giant
keyhole, and in the middle was a lake that
lit up with re.
Fans picked the nights winners and
also lled the makeshift theater for the 2
1/2 -hour presentation, which is set to air
Tuesday as a two-hour special on Spike
TV and VH1.
The show literally began with a scream,
opening with a giant crane carrying a
woman across the sky, then dropping her
into the ery lake. Blasts of re and vari-
ous stunts continued throughout the pro-
gram.
Potter took the nights top prize. The
eight-part lm franchise was named the
Ultimate Scream, which awards pre-
senter Chloe Grace Moretz
described as the most awe-
some, most rocking thing that
the universe has ever seen.
Audience members were
given glow sticks before
the winner was
announced, and when
Potter star Daniel
Radcliffe accepted the
prize by video from New
York, fans there were waving
the same lights. Co-star Ralph
Fiennes, who played Lord Voldemort,
also appeared by video to accept an
award for favorite villain.
Vader, though, won the Ultimate
Villain award. Star Wars creator
George Lucas presented the Sith Lord
with his prize.
Vader, who accepted the award person-
ally, said hes found it difcult to concen-
trate on his work recently because hes
constantly living in fear of how George
Lucas is going to digitally enhance you
for the next DVD.
Meanwhile, Lucas announced that the
rst Star Wars lm converted to 3-D
will open in February. He also offered a
peek at his latest project, Red Tails,
about the Tuskegee airmen.
Herman, also known as actor-comedian
Paul Reubens, rode his shiny red bicycle
across the lake (on oaties) to accept the
Visionary award. He thanked his fans and
the academy of Spike TV.
When Cage received the Maverick
award from Quentin Tarantino, a motor-
cycle appeared on stage
and the lake blasted with
re.
B e f o r e
Downey accepted
the Hero award, audi-
ence members were
given placards emblazoned
with his image and the
word hero and told to
raise the signs when the
actor made his entrance.
They practiced a few times
before the big moment.
Colin Farrell introduced the Iron
Man star by saying, No one plays the
hero with more swagger than this man.
Up went the placards. Fireworks shot
from the stage.
Thank you. Its a great honor,
Downey said. As your hero, I want you
to know I would never, ever, consider
using this moment to crassly promote an
upcoming movie.... Will you please enjoy
this very special world premiere of the
new trailer for Sherlock Holmes?
Downey wasnt the only winner who
unveiled his latest trailer. Cage showed
Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance,
Radcliffe introduced The Woman In
Black. Trailers were also shown for
Piranha 3DD and Paranormal 3.
The show was punctuated with circus-
worthy acts such as aerialists, re dancers
and contortionists who performed inside
oating plastic balls. There were also
plenty of stars and special effects.

A
fter the Japanese bombed Pearl
Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941, the San
Mateo Coast was very vulnerable to
enemy invasion.
Patrols were immediately formed to keep
track of any suspicious or military activity
that was going on along the coast. There was
only one main highway along the coast, so it
was used extensively for the movement of
military personnel to the different posts that
would be established. As these positions
would be facing the Pacic Ocean and be con-
cerned with water, the Navy and the Coast
Guard were the main departments that guard-
ed the coast, although the U.S. Armys 56th
Coast Artillery pulled four 155 mm portable
howitzer guns to the coast and placed them in
El Granada. These howitzers would give
mobility to the small force that was there at
rst. Foot and horse patrols on local beaches
were directed from a 100-year-old
building/pub and inn (Wave Crest Inn) that
was on the southern skirts of Half Moon Bay.
In the small community of Montara, the post
ofce building was used for the U.S. Army
officers quarters. South of the Montara
Lighthouse, the U.S. Navy established a gun-
nery school and radio station with a number
of station houses and ofces. Air Force air-
planes would y a short distance from the
shore with targets behind them and artillery
re would be directed from these facilities. In
the Moss Beach area, they built a radio station
as well as numerous other embedded bunkers.
Driving south on Devils Slide, one can still
see these steps that led to the re control sta-
tions and observation bunkers built on the hill
to the right (Devils Slide Military
Reservation). Originally, there were 198
wooden stairs to the facility at the top of the
hill. They were later made out of cement.
Three men manned the bunkers and they had
to carry their daily rations of food and water
to the top every day, as there was no electric-
ity, running water or food available. As one
continues south from Devils Slide, you can
see an isolated bunker on the right that was
purchased in 1963 by Alfred Wiebe. This
bunker was originally embedded in a hill, but
Mr. Wiebe planned to build a restaurant on the
site and he began tearing down the hill for a
building. However, after removing the rock
around the bunker, he could not obtain the
water and electricity to continue the project.
The isolated bunker is now a silent sentinel of
the second world war.
To accomplish the target practice and air
reconnaissance for the gunnery school, an air-
eld was built in Moss Beach area in 1942.
TBY aircraft was used to patrol the coastline
and pull the wooden targets a short distance
from the shore for the Army personnel to
practice shooting. After World War II, the
Half Moon Bay Airport was returned to civil-
ian use and use as a standby airport for the
San Francisco International Airport. After the
war, the airstrip was used for local ying and
drag racing, as well as storage for a number of
vintage airplanes. There is a small caf near
the landing eld that serves breakfast and
lunch and once a year local residents host an
event called the Dream Machines where
members of the community exhibit vintage
automobiles, farming machines and airplanes
for a few days in April.
A number of bunkers were built along the
length of the city of Pacica. At the top of a
hill to the east, at Milagra Ridge, an observa-
tion bunker and a re control station for guns
was built. Two 16-inch guns were being
planned for the ridge, but the war ended
before this was completed. In the 1950s and
60s, an underground Nike bunker was built
there. The Nike Hercules missiles were 42
feet long and were the main missiles that
guarded the West Coast during the Cold War.
These bunkers were cemented over after the
site was deactivated.
Further north up the coast, Fort Funston
was built by the ocean not very far from the
Olympic Golf Club. The cliff gives a beautiful
unobstructed view of the ocean, and two 16-
inch guns that were made for the USS
Saratoga cruiser were placed there. These
guns have a range of 26 miles. They are
embedded in reinforced concrete structures
that were built around the guns. Today, the
only remains of the bunkers is an observation
deck near the cliff. The area is now a part of
the Golden Gate National Recreation Area
where hang gliders take off from the cliffs. On
weekends, this facility is now a well-patron-
ized recreation area.

tained operation, General Manager
Chris Carpenter wrote in a memo to the
supervisors and county manager.
The budget projects $7.98 million in
operating revenues and $7.3 million in
expenses.
The Jockey Club is operating slightly
above initial estimates, adding to the
associations ability to repay San Mateo
County by June 2013 ve months
earlier than anticipated when it accepted
the construction loan in 2008 following
the closure of the privately owned Bay
Meadows race track.
The debt was expected to be retired in
2014 but higher than anticipated rev-
enues fast-tracked the repayment.
The association earns 2 percent of bets
about $72 million to $75 million this
year and commissions from bettors,
food and beverage, ATM and lottery
ticket sales. Satellite wagering brought
in more than $3.4 million last year but is
projected to be just under $3 million
2012.
The San Mateo County Fair wasnt
too shabby either in 2011. Attendance
was up 14 percent, representing a 40
percent in paid attendance and an
increase of 28 percent in overall total
fair revenue compared to the previous
year, according to Carpenter.
The plan now is to raise the bar further
and reinvest a substantial chunk of oper-
ating reserves into ongoing mainte-
nance, equipment replacement and capi-
tal projects.
After the Board of Supervisors green-
lights the associations budget it will go
to the State Division of Fairs and
Expositions for nal approval.
If you go, the Board of Supervisors
meets 9 a.m. Tuesday, Oct. 20 in Board
Chambers, 400 County Government

SAN FRANCISCO Security was
heavy at Stanford University last night as
some of Silicon Valleys elite gather for
a private memorial for Steve Jobs.
Guards directed the handful of
reporters to a parking lot several hundred
yards away from Stanfords Memorial
Church where the service was being
held.
Additional personnel behind steel bar-
ricades allowed only a smattering of
vehicles to enter the area.
It was unclear when the event started
or how many were in attendance.
The Wall Street Journal reported that
invitations have gone out, but Apple and
Stanford ofcials were not releasing any
information about the event.
Jobs, who co-founded Apple Inc. and
was the mastermind behind popular
gadgets such as the iPhone and iPad,
died Oct. 5 at age 56 after struggling for
years with pancreatic cancer.
He was buried last week in a small
ceremony in Palo Alto that was mostly
attended by immediate family.

SAN FRANCISCO The U.S.

The board is now presented with
three occupancy plans all of which
share a phased approach between
2012 and 2019, assumes some
leased space will always be needed
for community-based services like
clinics and human services intake
centers, creates a one-stop customer
center for housing and social servic-
es and creates shared conferencing
and meeting space.
The key difference in the plans is
the location of the Board of
Supervisors and county manager
ofce. One plan maintains the exist-
ing location in 400 County
Government Center, the second
moves them to the fth oor of 555
County Center in late 2012 or early
2013 and the third moves them to
the second oor of a renovated 455
County Center in 2015 or 2016.
The Board of Supervisors was
scheduled to discuss the different
plans at its last meeting but post-
poned the item at the request of
Vice President Adrienne Tissier
who said she isnt certain simply
retrotting and relling 455 is the
best approach.
If were not liking the buildings
now, why bother to retrot them but
keep the layout the same? Tissier
asked.
Instead, Tissier wants to look at
options for leasing out the building
and maybe the neighboring motor
pool lot. The county owns a lot of
property which could be an oppor-
tunity for economic development,
she said.
I think its premature to say go
ahead and retrofit 455 until we
know, she said.
Board President Carole Groom is
also moving slow with plans for
455, particularly until ofcials have
a better handle on the scope of the
needed repairs and whether the state
will ultimately want most or all of
400 for courtroom facilities. The
state took over courthouses from
counties but some, like San Mateo
County, continue to share space.
Groom said her number one pri-
ority is the county employees, get-
ting them ready and moved to
Circle Star as efciently and quick-
ly as possible. Where the supervi-
sors ofces are located are less of a
concern than getting departments
out of leased space, she said.
Having ofces no longer next to
the board chamber may be a bit of a
pain but it certainly isnt the worse
thing, Groom said.
You just better make sure you
bring everything with you to meet-
ings, she joked.
Although Groom and Tissier
arent prioritizing where their
ofces will be, Jensen said that real-
ly is the focus for Tuesday. The
board doesnt have to make a den-
itive decision on what 455 looks
like but if that is the boards prefer-
ence staff needs to know, Jensen
said.
Where you put one group will
affect where you put another, she
said.
The occupancy plan is also being
affected by the recent state shift of
criminal justice programs and serv-
ices.
Tissier was taken by surprise
perplexed even, she said by talk
of just how much space in 400
County Center might be taken up by
realignment needs. The county has
already carved out some room for
probation, human services and
health in ofces across from the
board chambers but hasnt been told
for sure whether to prepare for pro-
cessing 30 or 300 in any given day,
Tissier said.
I need more clarity, Tissier said.
I have no problem with that we
need to get people going on the plan
but dont throw it all in without
more information.
Once the occupancy plan is in
place, the county can gure out the
final bottom line. The County
Center retrot is estimated at $15
million but could run more if there
isnt enough surplus furnishing to
fully outt the building.
The Board of Supervisors was
told at the time of the Circle Star
purchase to expect a $10.4 million
improvement allowance for interior
design and construction.
If you go, the Board of
Supervisors meets 9 a.m. Tuesday,
Oct. 18 in Board Chambers, 400
County Government Center,
Redwood City.

Cantor: Jobs debate shouldnt
be about personality
WASHINGTON House Majority Leader Eric Cantor
says Republicans and the Obama White House are struggling
to agree on a plan to ease unemployment because a lot of
folks on the other side want to boil this down to personality.
Cantor was asked on Fox News Sunday about accusa-
tions the GOP has obstructed Obamas proposals.
He said the differences we have with this president are
policy-based. Cantor said federally-directed stimulus efforts
dont work. And he said that while Republicans agree with
President Barack Obama that theres too much income dis-
parity in this country, they want economic policies that lift
all segments of society.
Cantor acknowledged that the people of this country want
to see us trying to set aside those differences and actually
come together on the things we can agree on.
Long ties to Koch brothers key to Cains campaign
IOWA CITY, Iowa Republican presidential hopeful
Herman Cain has cast himself as the out-
sider, the pizza magnate with real-world
experience who will bring fresh ideas to
the nations capital. But Cains economic
ideas, support and organization have
close ties to two billionaire brothers who
bankroll right-leaning causes through
their group Americans for Prosperity.
Cains campaign manager and a num-
ber of aides have worked for Americans
for Prosperity, or AFP, the advocacy
group founded with support from billion-
aire brothers Charles and David Koch, which lobbies for
lower taxes and less government regulation and spending.
Cain credits a businessman who served on an AFP advisory
board with helping devise his 9-9-9 plan to rewrite the
nations tax code. And his years of speaking at AFP events
have given the businessman and radio host a network of loyal
grassroots fans. The once little-known businessmans politi-
cal activities are getting fresh scrutiny these days since he
soared to the top of some national polls.

NEW YORK The Occupy Wall
Street movement has close to $300,000,
as well as storage space loaded with
donated supplies in lower Manhattan. It
stared down city ofcials to hang on to
its makeshift headquarters, showed its
muscle Saturday with a big Times
Square demonstration and found legions
of activists demonstrating in solidarity
across the country and around the world.
Could this be the peak for loosely
organized protesters, united less by a
common cause than by revulsion to what
they consider unbridled corporate greed?
Or are they just getting started?
There are signs of condence, but also
signs of tension among the demonstra-
tors at Zuccotti Park, the epicenter of the
movement that began a month ago
Monday. They have trouble agreeing on
things like whether someone can bring
in a sleeping bag, and show little sign of
uniting on any policy issues. Some pro-
testers eventually want the movement to
rally around a goal, while others insist
that isnt the point.
Were moving fast, without a hierar-
chical structure and lots of gears turn-
ing, said Justin Strekal, a college stu-
dent and political organizer who traveled
from Cleveland to New York to help. ...
Egos are clashing, but this is participato-
ry democracy in a little park.
Even if the protesters were barred
from camping in Zuccotti Park, as the
property owner and the city briefly
threatened to do last week, the move-
ment would continue, Strekal said. He
said activists were working with legal
experts to identify alternate sites where
the risk of getting kicked out would be
relatively low.
Wall Street protesters are intent on
hanging on to the momentum they
gained from Saturdays worldwide
demonstrations, which drew hundreds of
thousands of people, mostly in the U.S.
and Europe. Theyre lling a cavernous
space a block from Wall Street with
donated goods to help sustain their near-
ly month-long occupation of a private
park nearby.
Theyve amassed mounds of blankets,
pillows, sleeping bags, cans of food,
medical and hygienic supplies even
oddities like a box of knitting wool and
20 pairs of swimming goggles (to shield
protesters from pepper-spray attacks).
Supporters are shipping about 300 boxes
a day, Strekal said.
Occupy Wall St. shows muscle
WASHINGTON President Barack
Obama saluted Dr. Martin Luther King
Jr. Sunday as a man who stirred our
conscience and made the Union more
perfect, rejoicing in the dedication of a
monument memorializing the slain civil
rights leaders life and work.
I know we will overcome, Obama
proclaimed, standing by the 30-foot
granite monument to King on the
National Mall. I know this, the presi-
dent said, because of the man towering
over us.
Obama and his
wife, Michelle, and
Vice President Joe
Biden and his wife,
Jill, joined a host of
civil rights gures for
the dedication on the
sun-splashed Mall.
Designed as what
King described as a
stone of hope hewn
from a mountain of
despair, the memorial is the rst to a black
man on the National Mall and its parks.
He had faith in us, said Obama, who
was 6 when King was assassinated in
1968. Obama told the crowd, And that
is why he belongs on this Mall: Because
he saw what we might become.
The dedication has special meaning
for the Obamas. The president credits
King with paving his way to the White
House. Before his remarks, he left
signed copies of his inaugural speech
and 2008 convention address in a time
capsule at the monument site. The rst
couple and daughters Malia and Sasha
made a more private visit to the site on
Friday night, before the crowds and the
cameras arrived.
Obama: King stirred our conscience
WASHINGTON A senior politi-
cal adviser to President Barack Obama
is charging that the Republicans seek-
ing the presidency dont understand
the American publics pent-up anger
over corporate excesses.
David Axelrod tells ABCs This
Week that the American people want
a nancial system that works on the
level. They want to get a fair shake.
He appeared Sunday, a day after
scores of demonstrators protesting cor-
porate business practices were arrested
in New Yorks Times Square in a con-
frontation with police.
Axelrod faulted Republicans who
have been pushing in Congress to soft-
en or repeal the landmark legislation
Obama pushed through last year, tight-
ening regulation of business practices.
Axelrod said he doesnt believe any
American is impressed when hearing
GOP presidential candidates who want
to roll back Wall St. reform.

TRIPOLI, Libya Libyan revo-
lutionary forces bulldozed the green
walls surrounding Moammar
Gadhas main Tripoli compound
on Sunday, saying it was time to
tear down this symbol of tyranny.
The sprawling, fortress-like com-
pound known as Bab al-Aziziya has
long been hated by Libyans who
feared to even walk nearby during
Gadhas more than four decades in
power and its capture was seen as a
turning point in the civil war as rev-
olutionaries overran the capital in
late August.
Ahmad Ghargory, commander of a
revolutionary brigade, said the area
will be turned into a public park
accessible to all
Libyans.
Its the revo-
lutionary deci-
sion to tear down
this symbol of
t y r a n n y ,
Ghargory said.
We were busy
with the war, but
now we have the
space to do this.
Already, the courtyard in front of
Gadhas former house, which he
used for many ery speeches trying
to rally supporters during the upris-
ing, has been turned into a weekly
pet market. Tripoli residents roam
the premises as if at a museum, with
vendors selling revolutionary ags
and other souvenirs.
Libyans are eager to move on
after decades of repression, even
though fighting persists on two
fronts and tensions between sup-
porters of the former regime and
revolutionary forces remain high
even in Tripoli. The continued insta-
bility has delayed efforts by the
transitional leadership to move for-
ward with efforts to hold elections
and establish democracy.
The Bab al-Aziziya compound,
surrounded by high walls lined with
barbed wire, had been a mystery to
most Libyans though it is one of the
citys largest landmarks. Many
Tripoli residents said they wouldnt
go near it, fearing security guards on
the compounds high green walls
would get suspicious and arrest or
shoot them.

CAIRO Gulf countries seeking
to suspend Syrias membership to
the Arab League over its bloody
crackdown on protesters failed to
gain enough support Sunday to push
the measure through, reecting deep
divisions among the bodys 22
nations.
Arab foreign ministers met at the
groups Cairo headquarters behind
closed doors for an initial 3-hour
session without Syrias representa-
tive, then took a break and recon-
vened for talks with Syrian diplo-
mats that lasted late into the night.
Just after the meeting with Syrian
diplomats, Qatar Foreign Minister
Hamad bin Jassim made no mention
of a possible suspension and instead
gave Syria a 15-day deadline to
enact a cease-re.
The Arab League also agreed to
create a committee led by Qatar to
oversee the situation in Syria and
said a national dialogue between
Syrian ofcials and the opposition
would take place at the Leagues
headquarters in Cairo.
A national dialogue in 15 days is
one of the most important decisions
of the day, bin Jassim said.
The national dialogue is to include
members of the opposition from out-
side Syria as well as inside. If the
meeting and a cease-re do not take
place within the allotted time frame,
the Arab League will meet again in
an emergency session, participants
said.
Syrian state TV reported that
Damascus was not eager to hold the
dialogue in Cairo, suggesting it
should be held in Syria instead.
The newly formed Syrian National
Council was also seen unlikely to
accept the call for dialogue.

Iran warns

assassination
plot claims
By Ali Akbar Dareini
TEHRAN, Iran Irans
supreme leader warned the United
States on Sunday that any measures
taken against Tehran over an alleged
plot to assassinate the Saudi ambas-
sador to Washington would elicit a
r e s o l u t e
response.
Two men,
including a
member of the
Iranian special
foreign actions
unit known as
the Quds Force,
have been
charged in New
York federal
court with conspiring to kill the
Saudi diplomat, Adel Al-Jubeir.
U.S. ofcials have said no one was
ever in any immediate danger from
the plot.
If U.S. ofcials have some delu-
sions, (they must) know that any
unsuitable act, whether political or
security, will meet a resolute
response from the Iranian nation,
state TV quoted Supreme Leader
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei as saying.
Iran also demanded that a diplo-
mat be allowed to visit one of the
men in prison.
Khameneis comments may
reflect Iranian concerns that
Washington would use the Al-Jubeir
case to ratchet up sanctions and
recruit international allies to try to
further isolate Tehran.
Its the revolutionary decision to tear down this symbol of tyranny.
We were busy with the war, but now we have the space to do this.

Not so vacant
Editor,
In his article, PlayStation maker

tion of the Daily Journal, Bill
Silverfarb writes, Software-maker
Siebel was bought by Oracle in 2005
for $5.8 billion and its old headquar-
ters, near Highway 101, has stood
vacant for years since the sale.
Its far from the case that the old
Siebel headquarters has been vacant
since Oracle took over Siebel. The
space at 2207 Bridgepointe Parkway
has housed Actuate Corporation on two
oors for four years and various other
companies on the remaining oors dur-
ing that time. The other two buildings
in the complex have similarly been
occupied by a number of companies.
Im disappointed that the mayor doesnt
nd our companies interesting enough

Keeping secrets
Editor,
When I wrote about genocide
(Never-ending Holocaust published in
the Sept. 1 edition of the Daily Journal),
I did so because certain instances of the
genocide have never been made known.
Ireland was once a country of 12 million
people. Today it is only 4 million peo-
ple. The British government deliberately
withheld food in the famine of 1846 in
an effort to regenerate the population.
The Irish could not go to school, enter a
profession, own land, rent land, live in
any part of an incorporated city, practice
their religion, hold political ofce or
even vote. Visit the library, look up all
the facts. The United States and Britain
do not want the truth about Ireland to be
told. This is why I say hear each case
equally.

By Gino Gasparini
I
spend a signicant part of my day
visiting with our customers, attend-
ing community meetings with
neighborhood associations, service clubs,
chambers of commerce and a host of
other groups. In these meetings I get the
same question from everyone Why
are our rates going up again? The com-
mon assumption is that our company,
Recology San Mateo County (RSMC), is
somehow allowed to charge whatever we
want for our collection services.
However, the truth is very different
from the perception. RSMC is simply the
collection service provider to the 12
member agencies that make up the South
Bayside Waste Management Authority
(SBWMA or RethinkWaste) service area.
We are not the rate-setting entity, we
simply charge a contractually agreed
upon cost to provide collection service.
Moreover, while the percentages that
rates are going up seem alarming, the
actual dollar amounts are quite reason-
able for the new and improved services
being provided, in an area that has some
of the lowest established collection rates
in the Bay Area. The reality is that
Recologys cost is just one component of
the collection rates set by the 12 agen-
cies. For instance, within the rates set by
cities, there are costs for disposal at the
landll and processing charges for the
recycling and organics handled by a dif-
ferent contractor, South Bay Recycling,
as well as the cost to close out the previ-
ous contracts with Allied Waste.
To complicate things even more, a sig-
nicant contributor to collection rates
increasing for many cities this year is the
impact of residents subscribing to small-
er garbage carts otherwise known as
cart migration. Many residents have
increased recycling and composting,
which has helped them reduce their
garbage service levels considerably, and
since rates are lower
for the smaller
garbage cart sizes,
they are able to
reduce their monthly
charges.
This cart downsiz-
ing is a very positive
thing, and coupled
with the amount of
material we pick up, tells us denitively
that the recycling collection programs are
working well, since we have increased
recycling and compost volumes across
the board by more than 30 percent. This
is a good thing and it is what
RethinkWaste and the CartSMART pro-
gram sought out to do when choosing a
new collection system and Recology as
its new collection services provider.
Though a bit counterintuitive, the
effort or time spent and the cost to serv-
ice a 20-gallon cart is essentially the
same as the cost to service a 32-, 64- or
96-gallon carts. In all instances, the same
number and type of trucks are used, the
labor costs are the same and the same
infrastructure requirements are necessary.
Yet, the rates charged to residents are
based on the size of their garbage carts,
and they are signicantly discounted
when using a smaller garbage cart.
This rate structure was put in place for
a good reason: it provides an incentive
for recycling over disposal a highly
commendable and sustainable purpose,
and it has yielded cost savings to people
who recycle.
However, because of the success of the
new CartSMART program, and based on
the rates established, the balance of large
carts to smaller ones has shifted and
many of the RethinkWaste member
agencies have found themselves collect-
ing insufcient revenue through their
rates to cover the costs of providing the
service and are therefore in a position
where adjustments are necessary to
account for past revenue shortfalls and to
help prevent future shortfalls.
This explanation of rate setting is not
to suggest that Recologys costs are not
increasing. They are. Our collection serv-
ice costs to the RethinkWaste member
agencies have an average rate impact of
2.2 percent from 2011 to 2012. The rea-
son for this increase is due to contractual
adjustments based on consumer price
index, fuel costs and labor costs
The truth is that Recology would pre-
fer not to raise collection rates. But the
fact is, based on our contracts, our costs
rise and/or fall based on established
indexes to cover adjustable items like
fuel and labor. What is also fact is that
while our cost increases are part of the
rate increases, they are a small portion of
them and they are not done on a whim,
but instead are based on solid, nationally
indexed, contracted and approved formu-
las.
We understand that rate increases are
never easy. We also understand that the
percentages being discussed are large.
We ask you to keep in mind that the
actual dollar amount is minimal and are
only due in small part to Recologys
allowable cost increases. We also ask you
to keep in mind that the new
CartSMART program is providing great
results and has been warmly received. It
also is a critical step in meeting new state
recycling goals established by Assembly
Bill 341 that sets a 75 percent recycling
goal for California by 2020 the most
ambitious in the nation.
Recology San Mateo County is proud
to be a part of this successful program
and is committed to helping our commu-
nity and cities that we serve achieve the
highest level of recycling through the
new CartSMART weekly collection pro-
gram.

manager for Recology San Mateo County.

Ask Gino: Why are garbage rates going up?
How Maureen
did it ...
M
aureen Freschet will be San Mateos new coun-
cilmember come December. She scored her first
election victory without facing an opponent.
How did she do it?
***
To begin with, Maureen is a San Mateo original. She was
born in San Mateo. So were her parents who have lived in
the same house near the
Peninsula Golf & Country
Club they built 60 years ago.
So were Maureens grand-
parents. Freschet also served
on the citys Planning
Commission prior to her
quest for a council seat. And
being a planning commis-
sioner is an important step-
ping stone.
But before that, Maureen
was active in the community.
While she was raising her
children, she had a part-time
job with the countys
Criminal Justice Council. When that job fell through
because of funding shortages, she found a job at Notre
Dame de Namur University where she has worked for 19
years. Thats only half the story. Behind Maureens perfect-
ly coifed hair and manicured nails is a woman with such a
pleasant personality its hard not to like her. But inside is
grit, like true grit.
***
Maureen started off life as a fairly average young
woman. But that didnt last long. She grew up in a family
of five, one boy and four girls. She was the oldest. She
attended St. Gregorys where her dad was a coach and her
mom a troop leader. Then it was on to Notre Dame High
School but she transferred to Aragon High School after her
sophomore year. Her parents could not afford college so
she attended CSM. But she never finished. During her sec-
ond year at college she married and stopped going to
school. Her marriage lasted 11 years and produced two
daughters. But it was a difficult marriage they married
much too young and it ended in divorce. Much of the
time Maureen had to work to supplement if not provide the
family income and raise the girls by herself. When she lost
her job at the Criminal Justice Council, she did something
she always wanted to do. She treated herself to a trip to
Europe while her family took care of the girls. When she
returned and checked the classified ads for a job, it was
serendipity.
She was hired as an administrative assistant to the presi-
dent of Notre Dame in Belmont. While she kept getting
promoted, she also attended the college where she worked
to finish her degree. Her proudest moment was when she
and her daughter graduated at the same time. As director of
conferences and events and as director of the colleges
community relations, Maureen became a member of
Belmont Rotary and the local Chamber of Commerce
where she served a stint as president. As director of corpo-
rate and foundation grants, she got to know many commu-
nity leaders.
Just to test the waters, she applied for the Board of
Supervisors when there was an open seat which Carole
Groom eventually won. From there she applied for the San
Mateo Planning Commission in 2009. She said she had it
in the back of her mind to run for council one day but she
didnt want to run against an incumbent. So when John Lee
was termed out in 2011, it was her moment.
***
Today Maureen lives in the same Sunnybrae house she
has lived in since a young married woman. Her two girls
are grown. She is ready to go to work for San Mateo. To
meet Maureen is to like her. She is a good listener and
open to ideas. She wants to improve economic development
opportunities in San Mateo while still being sensitive to
neighborhood concerns. Her goal is to have a community
plaza downtown. Its a mistake to think Maureen just
strolled on to the council. She worked hard over the years
to develop contacts and a year ago started collecting
endorsements from some of the major players in the coun-
ty. She raised $16,000 in the process. Maureen would have
been tough to beat if there was a race.

NEW YORK 2011 was shaping up
to be a washout for the stock market just
two weeks ago. Now, its within shouting
distance of its biggest comeback in nearly
three decades.
The Standard and Poors 500 index has
jumped 11.4 percent since hitting its low-
est level of the year on Oct. 3, largely
because investors have become more con-
dent that Europe will shelter its banks
from huge losses on Greek bonds should
that countrys government stop making
payments on its debt. For much of the
summer, investors feared that a Greek
default could lead to a freeze of lending
between European banks and cascade into
a credit crisis similar to the one in 2008.
The S&P 500 was down 12.6 percent
for the year as of Oct. 3, when it closed at
1,099. As of Friday, it had trimmed the
loss to 2.6 percent. It needs to gain just 33
points, or 2.8 percent, to get above 1,257,
where it started the year.
If the S&P 500 nishes the year with a
gain, it will be the biggest turnaround
since 1984. That year, Apple Inc. intro-
duced the Macintosh, and President
Ronald Reagans campaign ads pro-
claimed that it was Morning Again in
America. It was also the last time that the
S&P 500 fell more than 10 percent during
a calendar year and nished the year in the
black. The index nished that year up 1.4
percent.
Edging out another gain of that size in
2011 wouldnt make anyone rich. But
consider the hand that investors were
dealt this year: A tsunami and nuclear
disaster in Japan plunged the worlds
third-largest economy into a recession
and created a worldwide parts shortage.
Uprisings throughout the Arab world
sent the price of gas skyrocketing to an
average of $3.98 a gallon in May. The
U.S. lost its top-notch credit ranking for
the rst time. And Europe has teetered
on the edge of a nancial crisis that
could hobble the regions banking sys-
tem.
With all of that going on, investors
might wonder how the S&P 500 index
could possibly end the year higher than
where it started. The biggest reason:
some think stocks may be the best value
out there.
With dividend payments alone, the S&P
index offers a return on par with low-risk
U.S. Treasurys. From Aug. 24 through
Thursday, the yield on the 10-year
Treasury note was below the dividend
yield of the S&P 500 index. Since 1962,
the only other time thats happened was
during the 2008 credit crisis, according to
J.P. Morgan.
You have to have pretty dark thoughts
to think that theres not a chance that the
S&P 500 beats out Treasurys at this
point, said Bill Stone, chief investment
strategist at PNC Bank.
Stone also thinks company earnings are
going to be better in the third quarter than
many analysts expect, driving stock prices
higher. Since July, analysts have cut back
their estimates for the S&P 500s third
quarter earnings 3 percent because of con-
cerns that the U.S. economy might be
heading into a recession. Since then, retail
sales, applications for unemployment ben-
ets, and the number of jobs added in
August have been better than Wall Street
expected. The market has been priced for
the worst, but thats not bearing out in
reality, Stone said.
Others point to the fact that the S&P
500 was stuck in a narrow trading range
since Aug. 4. That day, the index fell
below 1,260 during a broad sell-off.

ANAHEIM Californias largest
industry group for doctors is calling for
the legalization of marijuana even as it
maintains that the drug has few proven
health benets.
The Los Angeles Times reports the
California Medical Association adopted
the new stance at its annual meeting
Friday in Anaheim.
A Sacramento physician who wrote
the new policy says doctors are increas-
ingly frustrated by the states medical
marijuana law, which allows use with a

Lyman says physicians are put in the
uncomfortable position of having to
decide whether to recommend a drug
thats illegal under federal law.
The group acknowledges health risks
associated with marijuana use and pro-
poses regulation similar to alcohol and

criminalization outweigh the dangers.

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates When its gasoline pumps
started going dry in the United Arab Emirates poorer northern
states earlier this year, Dubais oil company blamed mysterious
service upgrades.
Few believed that at the time, and now the company is drop-
ping its subtlety, triggering an uncharacteristically public spat
over fuel pricing policies.
By letting its farther-ung stations run empty, the Emirates
National Oil Co., or ENOC, was telegraphing a message: The
Dubai government-owned rm was tired of driving itself deep-
er into the red by shouldering money-losing state fuel subsidies
that keep pump prices articially low.
In an unusually strongly worded statement over the weekend,
the company said that continuing to cover subsidies mandated
by the UAEs federal government is clearly not sustainable or
viable for the company.
It was a rare public display of power politics in a country
where grievances particularly ones involving the many busi-
nesses controlled by the Emirates ruling sheiks are typical-
ly resolved behind closed doors.
The rift highlights Dubais determination to maintain its inde-
pendence within the UAE federation despite a daunting debt
bill, and it throws into question the generous subsidies the
country uses to help buy political stability.
Regular gasoline sells for just 1.72 dirhams a liter in the
UAE, or $1.77 a gallon. Thats a little more than half of what
drivers pay in the U.S., where gas now averages $3.46 a gallon,
and a fraction of what it costs Europeans to ll up.
Providing cheap fuel to its population is what makes Dubai
attractive as a trade hub, said Christopher Davidson, a lecturer
at Britains Durham University and an expert on the UAE.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Coming into their conference
opener against Santa Rosa Junior
College, the College of San Mateo
Bulldogs knew theyd be tested in
the air.
The Bear cubs came into the con-
test as the fth most prolic passing
attack in the state, averaging 317.4
yards passing per game.
Coach pulled out a video, called
212, said CSM linebacker Lyman
Faoliu, the temperature at which
water boils is 212 degrees. He put a
challenge out, to make the backeld
212. We came out pressuring that
quarterback because we knew he
could do some work.
If you ask Santa Rosa, the tem-
perature may have exceeded that.
The Bulldogs put constant pressure
on the Bear cubs, forcing ve inter-
ceptions and shrinking that 317
yards average to 94 yards passing
for the game. They also sacked
Santa Rosa quarterbacks four times
en route to a 38-0 win. The shutout
was the Bulldogs third of the sea-
son.
They played with passion, they
played with re, they ran around,
our thing was to put hits on the
quarterback and they put hits on the
quarterback, said CSM head coach
Bret Pollack. It was a very impres-
sive performance.
Indeed it was; on top of the ve
interceptions, the Bulldogs also
forced two fumbles, recovering one
and all but shutting down the Santa
Rosa offense.
Offensively, CSM rushed for 361
yards and passed for an efcient 79
a couple of their scoring drives
werent long because they were
usually set up by a defensive
turnover.
Take their rst score for example,
a one-yard touchdown run by Miles
Freeman. The 7-0 lead consisted of
a four-play, nine-yard drive after
Justin Sagote intercepted Brycson
King on Santa Rosas rst play from
scrimmage. That was just a sign of
things to come.

49ers beat previously unbeaten Lions
By Larry Lage
DETROIT Jim Harbaugh
charged across the eld, lifting his
shirt to expose his belly to attempt a
chest bump. He extended his right
hand to Jim Schwartz for a shake
and slapped him on the back with
his left hand.
Schwartz didnt like what was
done or said claiming he heard an
expletive and went charging after
Harbaugh. What an emotion-lled
scene following a meeting of turn-
around teams that matched pregame
hype in San Franciscos 25-19 victo-
ry over Detroit on Sunday.
The NFC might have a nasty new
rivalry no one saw coming.
After the 49ers knocked the Lions
from the unbeaten ranks on Alex
Smiths touchdown pass with 1:51
left, both coaches added some high-
lights or lowlights of their
own.
Harbaugh took the blame in one
breath and a shot in the next.
Thats totally on me, Harbaugh
said. I shook his hand too hard.
NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said
the incident will be reviewed.
Harbaugh, a rst-year NFL coach
who played at Michigan, had to be
separated from Schwartz more than
once after Schwartz came running
and lunging toward him as both
teams were going to the tunnel.
I went to congratulate coach
Harbaugh and got shoved out of the
way, Schwartz said. I didnt
expect an obscenity at that point.

like that, you are excited, but there is
Raiders slip
past Browns,
honor Davis
By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PEESS
OAKLAND From lighting an
eternal ame to honor late owner Al
Davis to the play on the eld, it was
truly a special day for the Oakland
Raiders.
Jacoby Ford returned a kickoff
101 yards and Kevin Boss caught a
35-yard touchdown pass from
punter Shane Lechler on a fake eld
goal to lead the
Raiders to a 24-
17 victory over
the Cleveland
Browns on
Sunday in the
rst home game
since the death
of longtime
owner Al Davis.
The victory
came with one
major concern as starting quarter-
back Jason Campbell was knocked
out late in the rst half with an
injured collarbone. Campbell landed
hard on his shoulder after being hit
at the end of a scramble by
Cleveland linebackers Chris Gocong
and Scott Fujita on Sunday. There
was no immediate word on the
severity of the injury.
It was an emotional day at the
Coliseum with many old-time
Raiders coming back to honor
Davis, the man who had been the
face of the franchise for nearly a
half-century before dying Oct. 8 of
an undisclosed illness at age 82.
The most poignant moment came
during a halftime ceremony with
dozens of former players standing in
a circle around the Raiders emblem
at midfield. Super Bowl-winning
coach John Madden then lit a cal-
dron on the plaza level in the corner
of the stadium with the public
address announcer saying the re
will burn forever for fans to
remember Davis.
On a day full of tributes, the one
Davis would have appreciated most
is the one on the scoreboard as the
Raiders (4-2) beat the Browns (2-3)
to win consecutive games for the
rst time this season and move two
games over .500 for the rst time
since winning the AFC title in 2002.

500 winner Dan Wheldon died
Sunday at Las Vegas Motor
Speedway after his car became
ensnarled in a ery 15-car pileup,
ew over another vehicle and land-
ed in a catch fence just outside turn
2.
The 33-year-old racer was a two-
time Indy winner, including this
years race.
Three other drivers, including
championship contender Will
Power, were hurt in the pileup dur-
ing Lap 13.
Weldon was airlifted from the
track to
U n i v e r s i t y
Medical Center;
about two hours
later, his col-
leagues were
told of his death.
IndyCar is
very sad to
announce that
Dan Wheldon
has passed away from unsurvivable
injuries, IndyCar CEO Randy
Bernard said. Our thoughts and
prayers are with his family today.
IndyCar, its drivers and owners,
have decided to end the race.
In his honor, drivers took part in a
ve-lap salute around the oval.
IndyCar has not had a fatality
since Paul Dana was killed at
Homestead in 2006, during a crash
in a morning warmup.
Sundays wreck left Townsend
Bell upside down while smoldering
cars and debris littered the track
nearly halfway up the straightaway
of the 1.5-mile oval.
The accident appeared to start
when Wade Cunninghams car
swerved on the track and JR
Hildebrand drove over the left rear
of Cunninghams car. Hildebrand
appeared to go airborne, and
Cunninghams car shot up into the
wall, setting off a chain reaction
among the cars behind him.
Some of those cars slowed, others
didnt, and others spun in front of
Wheldon and Power. There was so
much chaos on the track it was hard
to tell who was driving what car.
Power appeared to y over Alex
Lloyds car, rolling into the catch-
fence and landing on its right side.
His in-car camera showed one of the
front tires coming toward him in the
cockpit.
Wheldon then appeared to drive
over Paul Tracys car. Tracy seemed
to be slowing but Weldon did not.
He went airborne and spun into the
fence.

drove down to the CSM 36 yard line before
King coughed up the football on a fumble
forced and recovered by DJ McDonough. The
CSM drive stalled right after, but it continued
the trend of a CSM defense that has looked
spectacular during their ve-game winning
streak because they dont just stop the oppos-
ing offense, they force turnovers. During the
ve game winning streak, the Bulldogs have
outscored their opponents by a combined
score of 240-21.
San Mateo would add to their lead to begin
the second quarter. Marcus McDaniel would
cap off a nine-play, 57-yard drive with a two-
yard touchdown run to make it 14-0. And
then, with six minutes left in the half,
Freeman would conduct the CSM defense
down the eld for another touchdown, a two-
yard score by Chris Adams.
Freeman, who has hurt earlier in the season,
appears to have nudged ahead in the quarter-
back competition for the Bulldogs. On
Saturday, his performance was solid. Miles
won the job this week in practice, Pollack
said. He did a good job and they understand
thats the way its going to be. Were going to
go with the hot hand and Miles came in and
had a good week. He did a pretty good job.
The Bulldogs used 10 different rushers in
the game. Kenya Price led the way with 63
yards rushing.
The second half belonged to the CSM
defense. As a defense, we wanted to set the
tone, Faoliu said. Its was our rst confer-
ence game, rst real test, its totally different
than the preseason. So, as a defense, we want-
ed to keep our shutouts going.
Before CSM went on a bit of a interception
barrage, Kenny Anderson added three points
to the lead with a 40-yard eld goal to make it
24-0.
Nate Jackson was the rst thief of the sec-
ond half, making a spectacular pick at the
Santa Rosa 37. The interception would set up
Adams second touchdown run of the after-
noon to make it 31-0.
On the ensuing drive, Brycson would be
intercepted again, this time by Faoliu, who
looked more like a running back than line-
backer on an 18-yard return to the Santa Rosa
22.
Takeaways were very important today,
Faoliu said. We wanted to keep the pressure
on (and) we wanted the quarterback to know
that we were going to keep coming.
With a 31-point lead, the Bulldogs turned
the pressure up a notch or two, and that led to
another pick. Lataimua Tevita was the culprit
on this occasion, intercepting the ball and
returning it 56 yards on a play in which No.
41 channeled a lot of his inner Barry Sanders,
erupting the CSM sideline with his jukes. The
return led to CSMs nal touchdown of the
day, a seven-yard pass from Jonathan Willis
that Bill Nyantyaki dove for and caught for
the score.
I thought the guys brought energy and pas-
sion, Pollack said, and against Los Medanos
thats what I was on them about; I didnt feel
like that was there. And in this game, it came
out. It showed on the eld.

a protocol that goes with this league.
Players from the 49ers (5-1) and Lions (5-1)
gathered and appeared to restore order
probably because they were worn out from a
hard-hitting, penalty-lled game with four
lead changes after halftime.
Ironically, I was playing peacemaker,
Detroit defensive end Kyle Vanden Bosch
said. But this is an emotional sport.
Smiths fourth-down, 6-yard pass to
Delanie Walker gave San Francisco the go-
ahead touchdown with 1:51 left. The play
stood after video review didnt show denite-
ly whether Walkers right knee was down
before the ball reached the goal line.
David Akers gave San Francisco a six-point
lead with 1:02 to go with a 37-yard eld goal.
Detroit had a chance to drive for a tying
eld goal or a go-ahead TD, but couldnt get a
rst down against a swarming defense that hit
and confused quarterback Matthew Stafford
from the start.
That last drive started with San Franciscos
fth sack and ended with a catch and lateral
69 yards short of the end zone to trigger
Harbaughs exuberant celebration.
It res me up a lot, Harbaugh said. If that
offends you or anybody else, then so be it.
San Francisco lost its rst ve games last
season and the ve-time championship fran-
chise failed to nish with a winning record for
the eighth straight year. Harbaugh has made
an instant impact, quickly changing culture
with many of the same players. The NFC
West-leading 49ers have won ve of their rst
six games for the rst time since 1998.
He loves football, Smith said. Hes an
emotional guy, and its showing up on this
team.
Smith lost a fumble on his rst snap and
threw an interception late in the third quarter,
matching his turnover totals from the rst ve
games in both categories.
But the No. 1 pick overall from the 2005
draft made a clutch pass to Walker for the win
when Michael Crabtree drew away the
defense.
They kind of jumped Crab and left me
open in the middle, Walker said. Alex made
a great read and made a perfect throw.
Smith was 17 of 32 for 125 yards, going
early and often to Crabtree, who matched a
career high with nine receptions for 77 yards.
Frank Gore ran 15 times for 141 yards, includ-
ing a season-long 55-yard gain, and scored a
TD that pulled the 49ers within three after
they were outscored 10-0 in the rst quarter.

MILWAUKEE An after-
thought in early September, the St.
Louis Cardinals are taking their
wild ride all the way to the World
Series.
David Freese hit a three-run
homer in the first and manager
Tony La Russa turned again to his
brilliant bullpen for seven sturdy
innings as St. Louis captured its
18th pennant with a 12-6 victory
over the bumbling Milwaukee
Brewers on Sunday night.
Albert Pujols and the wild-card
Cardinals took out the heavily
favored Phillies in the first round,
then dispatched the division-rival
Brewers on their own turf in Game
6 of the NL championship series.
Looking for its second title in
six seasons, St. Louis opens the
World Series at home Wednesday
night with ace Chris Carpenter on
the mound against the AL champi-
on Texas Rangers.
Trailing by 10 1/2 games in the
wild-card race on Aug. 25, the
Cardinals surged down the stretch
and took advantage of a monumen-
tal collapse by Atlanta to win a
playoff spot on the final night of
the regular season.
Now, bolstered by a group of no-
name relievers who keep answer-
ing La Russas call, the Cardinals
are back in the World Series for the
first time since beating Detroit in
2006.
What a relief!
It was a disappointing end to a
scintillating season for Prince
Fielder, Ryan Braun and the NL
Central champion Brewers, who
finished with a franchise-record 96
wins, six games ahead of St.
Louis.
Baseballs best home team col-
lapsed in the NLCS, though, losing
twice at Miller Park in an error-
filled flop. It was likely Fielders
final game with the Brewers, too.
Hes a free agent after the season.
Rafael Furcal and Pujols hit solo
homers off Chris Narveson and St.
Louis built a 9-4 lead by the time
the bullpen took over for Edwin
Jackson in the third inning.
The group of Fernando Salas,
Marc Rzepczynski, Octavio Dotel,
Lance Lynn and Jason Motte
allowed two runs the rest of the
way. For the series, St. Louis
relievers finished 3-0 with a 1.88
ERA over 28 2-3 innings.
The biggest scare came when
Pujols appeared shaken up after
tagging out Braun in the fifth
inning when he fell hard on his
right forearm on a close play at
first base. The three-time MVP
was slow to get up, but stayed in
the game.
Cardinals take wild ride to World Series
ARLINGTON, Texas The
Texas Rangers are back in the
World Series with a boom and a
purpose.
Just getting there isnt enough
this time.
Weve got that experience, Ian
Kinsler said. It wasnt a very good
one, but we have the experience.
Texas waited a half-century to
finally play in their first World
Series before losing to San
Francisco in ve games last year.
They quickly have another chance
to win their rst championship.
The Rangers won their second
consecutive American League pen-
nant after an unprecedented playoff
power display by Nelson Cruz, who
had six home runs and 13 RBIs in
the six-game AL championship
series. They beat Detroit 15-5 in the
clincher after a nine-run outburst in
the third inning.
It was a group commitment. We
werent very happy with the results
(against the Giants), and we cer-
tainly knew that we were a better
team than we showed, manager
Ron Washington said before relay-
ing what Michael Young told team-
mates after last years World Series.
The message from the teams
longest-tenured player: Enjoy
your winter, but dont turn it off
mentally. Were capable of getting
back.
And they were, even without
Cliff Lee.
The franchise that began as the
expansion Washington Senators in
1961, then moved to Texas in 1972
with Ted Williams as its manager,
opens another World Series on
Wednesday night at St. Louis.
The World Series returns deep
into the heart of Texas with Game 3
on Saturday night.

worked on fences and removed
smashed cars.
Wheldon started in the back of the
pack but quickly worked his way
through the 34-car eld before the
wreck.
Despite winning this years Indy
500, Wheldon couldnt put together
a full-time ride this season. He land-
ed in Sundays race thanks to
Bernards promotion that promised
$5 million to any moonlighting driv-
er who could win the IndyCar season
nale at Vegas. Although there were
no takers, Bernard refused to scrap
the idea and Wheldon was declared
eligible for the prize.
It was Wheldons 134th career
start, but only the third of the season
for the two-time Indianapolis 500
winner.
It was like a movie scene which
they try to make as gnarly as possi-
ble, said Danica Patrick, making her
nal IndyCar start. It was debris
everywhere across the whole track,
you could smell the smoke, you
could see the billowing smoke on the
back straight from the car. There was
a chunk of re that we were driving
around. You could see cars scattered.
Drivers had been concerned about
the high speeds at the track, where
they were hitting nearly 225 mph
during practice.
Their concerns became reality
when contact on Turn 2 sent cars y-
ing through the air, crashing into
each other and into the outside wall
and catch fence.
Ill tell you, Ive never seen any-
thing like it, Ryan Briscoe said.
The debris we all had to drive
through the lap later, it looked like a
war scene from Terminator or some-
thing. I mean, there were just pieces
of metal and car on re in the mid-
dle of the track with no car attached
to it and just debris everywhere. So
it was scary, and your rst thoughts
are hoping that no one is hurt
because theres just stuff every-
where. Crazy.
Also injured in the crash were
Hildebrand and Pippa Mann. Both
will remain in the hospital overnight.
IndyCar said Mann was being treat-
ed for a burn to her right pinkie n-
ger and will be released Monday
morning, and Hildebrand was awake
and alert but will be held overnight
for further evaluation
The accident spoiled what Bernard
had hoped would be a showcase
event for the struggling IndyCar
Series.
The second-year CEO worked the
entire season on turning the nale
into a spectacle, and said hed offer
his resignation to the IndyCar board
of directors if ABCs broadcast did-
nt pull a .8 ranking. His goal was to
improve upon last years season
nales horrible television rating and
give the series some momentum for
whats hoped to be a strong season in
2013 with the introduction of a new
car and new manufacturers.

up Sebastian Janikowskis 48-yard
field goal that made it 17-7 late in
the third quarter.
Oakland then took over again at
the Cleveland 25 after a botched
handoff between McCoy and
Montario Hardesty. Thats when
coach Hue Jackson once again
successfully went to his book of
tricks. On fourth down from the
35, Lechler the holder threw
to a wide-open Boss in the flat and
Boss raced to the end zone for the
score that made it 24-7.
Oaklands win last week in
Houston was aided by a 35-yard
run on a fake punt by Rock
Cartwright as Jackson has followed
his credo to live on the edge.
That lead proved to be enough
for the Raiders, who harassed Colt
McCoy and held Clevelands run-
ning game to 65 yards. McCoy
completed just 21 of 45 passes for
215 yards and two touchdowns,
including a 12-yarder to Mohamed
Massaquoi that cut it to 24-17 with
1:06 remaining after Jackson
bypassed a chip-shot field goal to
go for it unsuccessfully on fourth-
and-1 from the 5.
The Browns recovered the
onside kick, but were unable to
generate a first down and Oakland
won it.
Darren McFadden rushed for 91
yards on 20 carries with a touch-
down for the Raiders.
After a pregame video tribute
and moment of silence for Davis,
the Raiders started fast. They
forced a three-and-out to start the
game with safety Matt Giordano
sacking McCoy with a blitz on
third down. Oakland them method-
ically moved 88 yards in 15 plays,
converting four third-down oppor-
tunities and scoring on
McFaddens 4-yard run.
The Raiders were moving again
when Campbell slid headrst on a
scramble and lost the ball. That led
to Clevelands first score on
McCoys 1-yard TD pass to Alex
Smith.
Oakland answered with Fords
101-yard kickoff return his
fourth TD return in less than two
years as a pro.

First Fridays
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. Tom
Brady threw an 8-yard touchdown
pass to Aaron Hernandez with 22
seconds left to rally New England.
Dan Baileys 26-yard eld goal
had broken a 13-13 tie with 5:13
left. Each team ran one series before
the Patriots got the ball after a punt
with 2:30 remaining. Brady then
completed eight of nine passes for
78 yards on an 80-play drive capped
by his pass to Hernandez in the mid-
dle of the end zone.
New England (5-1) won despite
its rst two lost fumbles of the sea-
son and Bradys two interceptions.
Dallas dropped to 2-3.
Packers 24, Rams 3
GREEN BAY, Wis. Aaron
Rodgers threw three touchdowns,
including a career-long 93-yarder to
Jordy Nelson, and Green Bay now
stands as the NFLs only undefeated
team.
Rodgers threw for 310 yards for
the Packers (6-0). The Lions were
the only other unbeaten team enter-
ing the day, but lost to the 49ers.
James Jones and Donald Driver
also caught touchdowns from
Rodgers, although the Packers
offense hit a lull and didnt score in
the second half.
Sam Bradford was 28 of 44 for
321 yards with an interception for
the winless Rams (0-5), who were
coming off their bye week.
Rams running back Steven
Jackson had 18 carries for 96 yards.
Rodgers did throw his third inter-
ception of the season, a tipped ball
in the fourth quarter.
Giants 27, Bills 24
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.
Ahmad Bradshaw ran for 104 yards
and a career-best three touchdowns
and Lawrence Tynes kicked a go-
ahead 23-yard eld goal with 1:32
remaining for New York.
Bradshaw scored on three 1-yard
runs and had a 30-yard run to help
set up Tynes winner as the Giants
(4-2) rebounded from a bad loss to
Seattle last weekend by limiting the
high-scoring Bills (4-2) to seven
second-half points.
Ryan Fitzpatrick (21 of 30 for
244 yards) threw touchdown passes
of 60 yards to Naaman Roosevelt
and 9 yards to Stevie Johnson, but
his nal attempt was batted down
by Jason Pierre-Paul on a fourth-
and-5 from the Bills 25 to preserve
the win.
Fitzpatrick also was intercepted
twice by Corey Webster, with the
last starting the possession that led
to the winning kick.
Ravens 29, Texans 14
BALTIMORE Joe Flacco
threw for 305 yards and ran for a
score, Billy Cundiff kicked ve eld
goals for Baltimore (4-1).
The Ravens did just enough on
defense to earn their third straight
win. Baltimore held Houston score-
less over the nal 21 minutes and
limited standout running back Arian
Foster to 49 yards on 15 attempts.
Flacco had two turnovers, but he
also had completions of 51 yards
and 56 yards to put Cundiff in posi-
tion to score. Cundiff connected
from 43, 48, 25, 33 and 40 yards to
tie a Ravens record for eld goals in
a game.
Flacco completed 20 of 33 passes
and Anquan Boldin had eight catch-
es for 132 yards.
Even though the Texans (3-3)
were without wide receiver Andre
Johnson and linebacker Mario
Williams, they trailed only 19-14
until a 4-yard touchdown run by
Ricky Williams with 4:01 left.
Buccaneers 26, Saints 20
TAMPA, Fla. Josh Freeman
threw for 303 yards and two touch-
downs and Earnest Graham rushed
for 109 yards in place of injured
starter LeGarrette Blount.
The win pulled the Bucs (4-2)
into a rst place tie with the Saints
in the NFC South and snapped New
Orleans four-game winning streak.
The Saints had a chance to take
the lead late, but quarterback Drew
Brees was intercepted in the end
zone on a fourth-down pass.
Brees became the rst passer with
four consecutive 350-yard games,
but also threw three interceptions.
Tampas defense also held New
Orleans under 30 points for only the
second time this season and shut
down New Orleans rushing attack.
Eagles 20, Redskins 13
LANDOVER, Md. Michael
Vick threw for 237 yards and a
touchdown, Kurt Coleman had three
interceptions and Philadelphia
snapped a four-game losing streak.
The Eagles raced to a 20-0 lead in
the second quarter and held on to
beat the Redskins for the 10th time
in 12 tries at Washington.
LeSean McCoy rushed for 126
yards and a touchdown as
Philadelphia improved to 2-4 and at
last started to resemble at least
somewhat the team picked to
win the NFC East.
The Redskins dropped to 3-2.
Washingtons Rex Grossman was
benched after throwing his fourth
interception late in the third quarter.
He was replaced by John Beck, who
made his first appearance since
2007 and led the Redskins only
touchdown drive.
Bengals 27, Colts 17
CINCINNATI Nate Clements
blocked a late eld goal try that
would have tied the game, and
Carlos Dunlap returned a Colts
fumble 35 yards for the clinching
score to Indianapolis winless after
six games.
The Bengals (4-2) matched their
victory total from last season and
ended a seven-game losing streak
against the Colts, who had never
lost to Cincinnati with Peyton
Manning at quarterback. Manning
was on the sideline again Sunday,
watching helplessly as the Colts fell
to 0-6 for the fth time in franchise
history.
Curtis Painter rallied Indy from a
20-7 decit in the second half, get-
ting the Colts in range for Adam
Vinatieris 52-yard eld goal try to
tie with 5:38 left. Clements swatted
it away.
After the Bengals missed a eld
goal, Pierre Garcon was stripped of
the ball after a reception and Dunlap
ran it back to nish it off.
Falcons 31, Panthers 17
ATLANTA Michael Turner
ran for 139 yards and two touch-
downs, Matt Ryan scored the tie-
breaking TD with 7 minutes
remaining, and Corey Peters came
up with a huge interception.
Cam Newton, who grew up just a
few miles south of the Georgia
Dome, wowed the crowd most of
the day. He threw for 237 yards and
ran for a 14-yard touchdown that
put the Panthers (1-5) ahead 17-14
heading to the nal quarter.
Atlanta (3-3) responded with
Matt Bryants tying eld goal and
Ryans 1-yard sneak. Then Newton
made his biggest mistake of the day,
throwing a screen pass that was
picked off by Peters, a 305-pound
defensive tackle. The Falcons drove
for Turners clinching touchdown
with 1:56 left.
Steelers 17, Jaguars 13
PITTSBURGH Rashard
Mendenhall ran for a season-high
146 yards and a touchdown and the
Steelers narrowly avoided a second-
half collapse.
Ben Roethlisberger passed for
200 yards and a score for the
Steelers (4-2), who won for the
fourth time in ve games.
Maurice Jones-Drew rushed for
96 yards for the Jaguars (1-5), who
have dropped ve straight to match
the franchises longest losing streak
in a decade.
Jacksonville rookie quarterback
Blaine Gabbert remained winless as
a starter, completing 12 of 26 pass-
es for 109 yards and a TD on the
day after his 22nd birthday.
Gabberts heave into the end zone
on the games final play was
knocked down by Pittsburghs
William Gay.

LSU, Alabama, Oklahoma and
Oklahoma State hold the top four
spots in the rst BCS standings, set-
ting up two potentially huge confer-
ence games that could determine
which teams play for the national
title.
Southeastern Conference rivals
rst-place LSU and second-place
Alabama meet Nov. 5 in
Tuscaloosa, Ala.
The Tigers play defending nation-
al champion Auburn at home on
Saturday and the Crimson Tide is at
Tennessee. If they can get through
that, both will be off for a week
before a likely No. 1 vs. No. 2
matchup that could decide the SEC
West.
Third-place Oklahoma and
fourth-place Oklahoma State have
to wait longer to play their potential
Big 12 showdown. The Bedlam
rivalry is set for Dec. 3 at Stillwater,
Okla.
The only other time the top four
teams in the rst BCS standings of
the season came from two confer-
ences was 2000, when the Big 12
(Nebraska and Oklahoma) and the
Big East (Virginia Tech and Miami)
did it.
The BCS standings combine the
coaches poll, Harris poll and a
compilation of six computer rank-
ings.
The top four teams in the AP Top
25, which is not part of the BCS
standings, were LSU, Alabama,
Oklahoma and Wisconsin.
Boise State was fth in the rst
BCS standings, in good position to
at least earn a spot in the ve most
lucrative bowl games, if not the
BCS championship game on Jan. 9
in New Orleans.
SEC, Big 12 take top spots
in years 1st BCS standings
CHICAGO Between the long
touchdown catch and an even bigger
kickoff return, this was shaping up
as a special night for Devin Hester.
Then, a chest injury cast a big
cloud over it.
Hester set the tone with a 48-yard
touchdown catch and scored on a
career-best 98-yard kickoff return
before leaving with a chest injury,
and the Chicago Bears routed the
Minnesota Vikings 39-10 on
Sunday night.
Jay Cutler threw for 267 yards
and two touchdowns without an
interception. Julius Peppers had two
sacks, and the Bears (3-3) held
Vikings star Adrian Peterson to 39
yards rushing.
But Hesters injury dampened the
mood on a night when they got a
much-needed win.
That 48-yard TD pass from Cutler
on Chicagos rst possession got the
Bears started quickly as they
grabbed a 26-3 halftime lead.
Hesters kickoff return early in the
third quarter erased any chance the
Vikings had at a comeback.
Peterson had just scored on a 4-
yard run for the Vikings (1-5) when
Hester took the kickoff and turned
to his right. He was touched maybe
once on the way to the end zone,
making it 33-10. It was his rst
kickoff return for a touchdown since
Nov. 25, 2007, against Denver.
Hester set a record with his 11th
punt return for a touchdown against
Carolina on Oct. 2, but the good feel-
ings gave when to concern when the
announcement came in early in the
fourth that he was nished for the game.
Hester leads Bears past Vikings 39-10

C
onstipation and diarrhea. I wanted
this to be my Halloween column; it
may not seem like it with that lead,
but Ill get there. The topic is scary, but Ive
got an even better tie-in to the bewitching sea-
son. As Ive often said, it sure is fun having
pets, but its not always pretty. Some pet own-
ers swear by Pepto Bismol (for dogs, NOT for
cats) when their four-legged friend is retching,
or stricken with a gurgling stomach, while
others use tried and true home remedies.
Steamed rice is a common home remedy.
When I was growing up, this was my familys
go-to x for Ginger, the yellow lab/shorthair
mix. Other folks opt for boiled skinless and
boneless chicken. Rice is nice, but takes
some time. Chicken costs much more and
some people dont have it around or dont
want to buy it for ethical reasons. Ive got
one word for you: pumpkin. Make that two
words: canned pumpkin. This came straight
from the presidents mouth. Our PHS/SPCA
president, that it. Yes, we know way too much
about each others pets, including their bouts
with diarrhea and constipation. So, he swears
by canned pumpkin as a home remedy for
diarrhea. The high ber food absorbs water.
And it doesnt take much. One or two tea-
spoons mixed in with regular food usually
does the trick; some dogs and cats will eat it
right from the spoon. Interestingly, canned
pumpkin also acts as a stool softener, so it
works for constipated pets. You should be able
to nd canned pumpkin in grocery stores
these days. See, told you I get us to
Halloween. Pick-up a few extra cans and
make a pie. If your pets diarrhea or vomiting
persists more than 24 hours, that is truly scary.
Skip the home remedies and make an appoint-
ment to see your vet. Your dog could have
ingested pumpkin guts, seeds, stems or worse.

Real Steel and the dancers of Footloose
are in a tight fight for the box-office title.
The Hugh Jackman tale about machines in
the boxing ring took in $16.3 million, which
would make it the No. 1 movie for the sec-
ond-straight weekend, according to studio
estimates Sunday.
But Real Steel came in barely ahead of
the remake Footloose, which opened with
$16.1 million.
The movies are close enough that they
could switch rankings once final numbers
are released Monday.
Studio estimates are based on actual busi-
ness Friday and Saturday and projections for
Sunday based on how well similar movies
typically hold up.
An executive at Disney, which is distribut-
ing Real Steel for DreamWorks Pictures,
said he expects his movie will come out on
top because of strong family crowds during
day-time shows Sunday.
Absolutely, said Dave Hollis, Disneys
head of distribution. The way weve been
playing, the families whove been coming
and the kind of day-time business weve had
on each of the weekend days so far, we have
the expectation that it wont be terribly
close. Theyre free to estimate as they will,
but we expect to be No. 1.
Paramount, which released Footloose,
was tracking its movies revenues slightly
ahead of those for Real Steel, said Don
Harris, Paramounts head of distribution.
Footloose was doing especially strong
business in the Midwest and South, and the
studio had hopes that those rural crowds
would turn out in big numbers Sunday,
Harris said.
Its close enough to be a dead heat at this
point, Harris said. If we get that middle of
the country that seems to be preoccupied
with high school football on Friday and col-
lege football on Saturday, then it bodes well
not only for a big Sunday but for the legs of
the movie.
Universals horror update The Thing,
about Antarctic researchers stalked by a
shape-shifting alien, opened at No. 3 with
$8.7 million. Steve Martin, Jack Black and
Owen Wilsons bird-watching comedy The
Big Year, released by 20th Century Fox,
flopped at No. 9 with a $3.3 million open-
ing.
Real Steel raised its domestic haul to
$51.7 million. The movie also took in $23.3
million overseas to lift its international total
to $56.6 million and its worldwide earnings
to $108.3 million.
Footloose is a new take on the 1980s
flick about a youth (Kenny Wormald) chal-
lenging a towns ban on dancing. The
remake also features Dennis Quaid and for-
mer Dancing with the Stars performer
Julianne Hough.
Its rare that the top two movies flip-flop
in the rankings after final numbers come out
Monday.
Last summer, Universals Cowboys &
Aliens and Sonys The Smurfs were tied
for No. 1 right to the dollar based on Sunday
estimates. But Cowboys & Aliens fin-
ished $800,000 ahead once Mondays final
numbers were released.
There have been a lot of close races this
year, said Paul Dergarabedian, an analyst
for box-office tracker Hollywood.com. I
dont think there have been as many break-
out hits, so you have a lot of these films just
kind of bunched up together.

Recology anticipates the cost to pro-
vide the service in 2012 will increase by
$2.2 million from $44 million in 2011 to
$46.2 million in 2012.
The company is also guaranteed a 90.5
percent operating ratio, earning it more
than $4.6 million in prots this year. In
2012, the company will be guaranteed
$4.8 million in prots based on projected
revenue, driving up the total operating
costs to more than $51 million.
Add up contractor pass-through costs
and Recologys total contractors com-
pensation climbs to $53.3 million for
2012, a gure that must be paid by the
companys customers.
The SBWMA, or RethinkWaste, is a
joint powers authority with 12 member
agencies, including the cities of Belmont,
Burlingame, East Palo Alto, Foster City,
Menlo Park, Redwood City, San Carlos,
San Mateo, Atherton, Hillsborough, San
Mateo County and the West Bay Sanitary
District.
Wednesday night, the San Mateo
Public Works Commission approved a
9.9 percent increase for garbage rates
that will now be forwarded to the City
Council for approval at a public hearing.
The city sent out a Proposition 218 noti-
cation to city residents related to the
increase that gives the public the oppor-
tunity to protest the increase.
Rarely, however, do residents protest
rate increases in great numbers.
Belmont residents are facing a 22 per-
cent increase in garbage rates, a fact that
does not sit well with Mayor Coralin
Feierbach.
I want a better explanation as to why
rates go up with the migration to smaller
cans. I want to see the accounting,
Feierbach said.
Political issue
Garbage rates have become a political
issue in Belmont as candidates for coun-
cil have said the contract with Recology
needs to be revisited.
But the rates are not just going up
because of cart migration, said Brian
Moura, San Carlos assistant city manag-
er and chair of the SBWMA board.
Recycling disposal costs to South Bay
Recycling accounts for some of the
increase, Moura said, as does paying off
an old debt to Allied Waste, now called
Republic Services, from a previous con-
tract.
Allied is still owed more than $10 mil-
lion by member agencies from a previous
10-year contract that expired last year,
about $3 million of which is owed by res-
idents in the city of San Mateo. The
SBWMA signed a 10-contract with
Recology that started Jan. 1.
One reason for the need for increased
rates is that some cities use progressive
rates to incentivize customers to migrate
to smaller cans, Moura said.
Progressive rates encourage recycling
and discourage garbage, he said.
Some garbage customers are actually
being charged less than the actual cost of
service and others more, he said.
In East Palo Alto, all residents receive
a 96-gallon can and are charged for
garbage service at a at rate. Other cities
may want to move toward attening the
rate in the future, he said.
The San Carlos City Council will con-
sider a 9.6 percent increase in garbage
rates at its meeting Monday night.
Some cities are moving to pay off their
old debts to Allied Waste now, which is
causing a big spike in the rate increase,
while others are choosing to spread the
cost out over time, despite having to pay
interest to Allied, Moura said.
San Mateos Public Works Director
Larry Patterson said 2013 could be
another year when the garbage rates
spike.
We dont know yet what kind of
adjustments will be made in 2013,
Patterson said.
After that, he said, rates should be
fairly predictable for the remainder of
the contract based on the consumer price
index.
Next year, San Mateo residents will
see their monthly rates for a 32-gallon
can increase from $16.16 currently to
$17.76.
In Belmont, residents currently pay
$25.12 monthly for a 32-gallon can but
that will climb beyond $30 next year, if
the council approves the rate hike.
San Mateo residents pay a lower rate
because the city has far more commercial
customers than Belmont does, which
helps offset residential garbage rates.
Burlingame and Menlo Park residents
face even higher rate increases and
Atherton and Hillsborough residents face
the highest increases in the area next year
at 21.8 percent and 24.5 percent, respec-
tively.
East Palo Alto residents should see a
rate hike of less than 4 percent next year,
however, as they are charged a at rate
for garbage service.
The good news in all of this is that peo-
ple are recycling more and throwing away
less trash, said Roxanne Murray, recycling
program coordinator for San Mateo.
San Mateo residents have decreased
the amount of garbage it sends to local
landlls by 22.9 percent and increased
recycling by 44.3 percent and compost-
ing by 31.6 percent, Murray said.
State law also requires all municipali-
ties to reduce solid-waste diversion from
landlls by 50 percent under Assembly
Bill 939.
With single-stream recycling, San
Carlos residents are recycling 30 percent
more than previously, Moura said.
The approach has clearly worked, he
said. We are putting less garbage in
landlls.
At Recology, the company knows
increasing garbage rates is not a popular
move but said it is a necessity.
The rate increases are a challenge for
Recology, said public relations consult-
ant Adam Alberti, because when a cus-
tomer gets a bill it says Recology on it.
In reality, the rate increases have little
to do with Recologys cost of service,
said Alberti, who works for Singer and
Associates, which contracts with
Recology for public relations services.
Disposal costs go up, fuel costs go up,
a CPI adjustment is factored in and more
Recology customers migrated to smaller
cans sooner than the company expected,
Alberti said.
But San Mateo Councilman David
Lim recently questioned whether
Recology should get a 90.5 percent oper-
ating ratio, which guarantees a percent-
age of prot based on the actual cost of
service and helps drive up rates.
The SBWMA owns the Shoreway
Environmental Center, a state-of-the-art
recycling and transfer station facility in
San Carlos. The facility is operated by
South Bay Recycling, however, a limited
liability corporation.
Since South Bay Recycling is an LLC,
it can pass its prots through to its part-
ners, which include Potential Industries,
Inc., Community Recycling & Resource
Recovery, Inc. and Crown Disposal
Company, Inc., all based in Southern
California.
Where are prots going?
Lim wants to know where the prots
are going and to what degree do rate
increases for South Bay Recycling pay
for other services in other corporations.
Are we subsidizing lower garbage
rates for residents in Beverly Hills? Lim
asked.
South Bay Recycling also sells all the
materials it recycles, which should help
offset costs to its customers. Recyclables
are actually selling better on the market
this year compared to last, Moura said,
and should be a benet to ratepayers.
While migration to smaller carts has
driven up garbage rates, it has much
more to do with the fact that the region is
recycling more and less to do with
Recologys actual cost of service, of-
cials contend.
In San Mateo, residents face a 9.9 per-
cent garbage rate increase but only about
4 percent of that is directly attributable to
Recologys operating costs.
We are victims of our own success,
Patterson told San Mateos Public Works
Commission Wednesday night.

RATES
former opera singer Maria Callas for the
upcoming run of Master Class.
Written and rst performed in the late
90s, the show places Callas as a voice
teacher at Juilliard who uses her per-
sonal experiences as a way to inspire
her young students.
Cappuccini was desperate for the
opportunity to play Callas in the inti-
mate setting. She empathized with
Callas life of not being the golden
child or giving into loving the wrong
man.
She largely regarded herself as fat
and ugly except when she sang,
Cappuccini said, adding her voice was-
nt even the best.
But Callas had a strong work ethic.
She expected others to be similarly
dedicated and passionate, Cappuccini
said.
Cappuccini is Italian by heritage
in case the name didnt give it away
but was born and raised in the United
Kingdom. She came to the United
States in 1972 for a visit and ended up
staying. It wasnt a man that kept her
stateside, Cappuccini simply loved the
area. She became a waitress before
starting her own adventure travel com-
pany. Along the way, Cappuccini got
married and divorced but stayed active
in community theater for some time.
She did take a 17-year break from
the stage returning only three and a
half years ago. The absence meant
Cappuccini would need to audition
new for her, she had previously been
involved long enough that parts were
mostly offered to her.
Playing Callas was the first role
Cappuccini really wanted and was
intimidated by. After getting the part,
she memorized the lines before audi-
tions started in June. Playing a charac-
ter is different from a real person.
Photos of Callas throughout the
years were posted on the mirror
Thursday evening as makeup and hair
decisions were made.
She was known for her eyebrows,
Cappuccini said while lling in her own
eyebrows.
Playing Callas creates a unique chal-
lenge for Cappuccini breaking the
fourth wall. As Callas, Cappuccini will
be directly addressing the audience in a
175-seat theater. If people talk back,
Cappuccini will have a new challenge.
But going through the performances,
Cappuccini describes the two hours as
passing by quickly. Shes excited at the
opportunity to share Callas life and
plans to take on the womans tradition of
holding a picture of the Madonna before
going onto stage.
Shes such a tremendous character,
Cappuccini said. I never understood the
appeal of opera or opera fans. ... Callas
loved the limelight but she was an emo-
tional mess, wrecked with self doubt. ..
Theres nothing happy about a great
actress. Theyre tragic, but thats what
makes them great.

Nov. 6 with performances at 8 p.m.

MONICA
MONDAY, OCT. 17, 2011
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Be extra prudent in the
management of your resources or be prepared to
assume more debt than you can comfortably handle.
You wont like taking on so much fnancial obligation.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Should opposition
come from an unexpected quarter, you could get
caught off guard. However, dont get angry -- instead
fgure out what precipitated this turn of events.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- If you are taken
to task for not doing something you were supposed
to do, dont make excuses. Itll give you much more
peace of mind to start performing instead.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Guard your behavior
when in a social or group setting, so that you dont
absentmindedly do something that would be con-
strued as ill-mannered.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- If you allow outside
forces to invade your domicile, conditions will not be
as placid as you would prefer them to be. Why invite
trouble into your quarters?
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Certain concepts or
ideas that you thought had considerable support
might instead be challenged by some unexpected
people. Dont try to force compliance.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Watch out for some-
body applying pressure to get you to cough up
something that he or she wants. Dont give up the
goods, no matter how this person wheedles.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Should you fnd yourself
up against a person you dislike, dont make matters
worse by letting your feelings be known. If you do,
you will only add to an already bad situation.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- If youve been covering
up or failing to do something that was expected of
you, it could be a time of reckoning. The things that
youve been neglecting will be brought to light.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Unless you make it a
point to take a hand in formulating important plans,
others involved will do so for you. Chances are theyll
do only what is favorable for them.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Guard against taking on an
involvement that youre not equipped to handle. You
could quickly fnd yourself in way over your head and
cause all kinds of problems.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Youre someone who
usually stays calm, cool and collected, yet there is a
strong possibility you could lose your composure over
something insignifcant. Dont get caught off guard.
