WASHINGTON A tax cut that
reaches 160 million Americans and
government aid for the long-term
unemployed will expire at the end of
the year and suck $165 billion
out of the economy next year
unless Congress takes action.
Economists hoped the so-called
congressional supercommittee
would decide whether to extend
both measures. But the committee
couldnt even agree on how to reach
its main goal, cutting $1.2 trillion
from the federal budget decit.
If the tax cut goes away, the aver-
age family
would pay
about $1,000
more in taxes
next year, the
equivalent of
an extra tank
of gas every
two weeks.

The Belmont City Council could
not decide whether to raise garbage
rates by more than 22 percent last
night.
It also could not decide whether
to raise rates by about 15 percent
with a variety of creative nancial
schemes put
together by a
consultant that
would punish
those who recy-
cle more or dip
into reserves
meant to pay off
another debt.
What it did
decide to do is empower City
Manager Greg Scoles to negotiate
an extension with Recology to nd
a way to keep the looming garbage
rate hike as minimal as possible.
The council has until Dec. 15 to
adopt a new rate schedule or face
significant service reductions by
Recology, which started providing
garbage service on the Peninsula at
the beginning of this year.
The council is now asking
Recology to give it until at least
March to vote on the rate increase.
A public hearing was held last
night in accordance with
Proposition 218, which gives resi-
dents the opportunity to protest the
rate increase.
Only 287 protests were received,
however, with more than 3,000
needed to stop the rate increase.
The council made the move to
negotiate an extension after three
hours of lively debate that had one
councilman blame a consultant for
misleading the council on the rate of
migration to smaller cans.

To fill the shoes of outgoing Assistant
City Manager Kristi Chappelle, Foster City
simply had to look inward to find the right
person for the job as Finance Director Steve
Toler will take over the position effective
Jan. 1.
Chappelle is retiring after serving the city
for 29 years.
While it will be all but impossible to
replace Kristi Chappelle, Steve Toler is
clearly the best candidate for assistant city
manager, Councilman Charlie Bronitsky
said.
Tolers position has also been filled from
within as Lin-Lin Cheng, Tolers current
assistant, will take over his job come the
new year.
Toler has been with the city since 1997
and Cheng since 1981.
Both Steve and Lin-Lin have been high
performers for many years and are well
respected within the city organization and in
the community. These promotions are well
deserved recognition for their many contri-
butions over the years, City Manager Jim
Hardy wrote the Daily Journal in an email
yesterday.
Toler was the administrative services
director for Foster City
from 1997 through 2009
and was named finance
director in January 2010.
He has lived in Foster
City for 19 years with his
wife and two sons.
Cheng has been with
the city nearly 30 years
with her first job being
account clerk. She also
served the city as an accountant, chief
accountant, accounting manager and assis-
tant finance director except for two years in
which she worked for the city of San Mateo
as an accountant. She has lived in Foster
City since 1989.
I am excited to have this opportunity to
lead the Finance Department in its ongoing
pursuit of service excellence and accurate
record keeping of the citys operation and
financial status. I am very proud to be a
member of the city team in serving this
great community, Cheng said in a prepared
statement.
Bronitsky lauded Chengs outstanding
knowledge of city finances and said she
has an eye for detail that is second to
none.
Toler came to Foster City with a back-
ground in finance, having worked as a certi-
fied public accountant for
seven years before join-
ing the city. As adminis-
trative services director,
he provided direction and
oversight to the
Information Technology
Division, Foster City
Television and Foster
Citys telecommunica-
tions franchise agree-
ments. As finance director, he provided
management and analysis of the citys
financial resources.
The issues that we face as a community
are complex and multi-faceted. I look for-
ward to assisting the city manager and City
Council to collaborate and build consensus
with our community and others that have a
stake in Foster City as we face the chal-
lenges ahead, Toler said in a prepared
statement.
Mayor Linda Koelling called the appoint-
ments an excellent move.
Jim (Hardy) made a great choice, she
said.

BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE
If you plan to be one of the millions of
Californians traveling this holiday weekend,
get your umbrella ready and brace for delays.
According to the National Weather Service,
wet weather is expected to hit the Bay Area on
Wednesday.
Forecaster Steve Anderson said the region
will likely experience a brief respite with
dry, sunny skies expected over the weekend
but that the rains will return to interrupt
return travel on Monday.
Rain is expected in the North Bay and snow
is expected to fall in the Sierras on
Wednesday, Anderson said.
On Thanksgiving Day, there will be rainfall
in most parts of the Bay Area, he said, with a
90 percent chance of precipitation that day
that is expected to drop 0.25 to 0.5 inches of
rain.
Anderson said the rain on Monday will
mainly affect the North Bay.
He also noted that Bay Area residents trav-
el plans might be affected by inclement
weather elsewhere.
Its looking like there are going to be big
delays from Chicago east because of rain and
snow, Anderson said.
Travelers taking to the skies are advised to
check with their airlines to conrm ight
times, and motorists are urged to drive care-
fully.

A schizophrenic man who recently spent
years in a state mental facility after allegedly
stabbing a man to death at a San Carlos voca-
tional work center seven years ago may not be
able to aid in his own defense against murder
and weapons charges, according to his attor-
ney.
However, attorney Vince OMalley said he
has had nothing but limited contact with his
client, Vitin Ajani Cruz, over the past several
years and needs to have him independently
evaluated before deciding the right move.
Doctors have found Cruz, 37, restored to
competency but at a hearing yesterday to rein-
state criminal proceedings OMalley sought
more time. The matter was put over until Dec.
22 for a decision on whether OMalley will
ask for a competency hearing rather than just
accepting the doctors evaluations agreeing to
a criminal trial.
Cruz is facing charges of rst-degree mur-
der, the use of a deadly weapon and inicting
great bodily injury in the Oct. 27, 2004 fatal
stabbing of Alfonso Ruiz.
If convicted, Cruz faces up
to 26 years in prison.
Since his arrest, Cruz
has bounced back and
forth between the county
and state mental facilities.
He has been committed
since 2008 when he was
last returned for prosecu-
tion but again found
incompetent after OMalley disputed the nd-
ing.
According to prosecutors, Cruz attacked
Ruiz at Vocational Rehabilitation Services on
Quarry Road in San Carlos. Authorities said
Cruz mistook Ruiz for another man as they sat
next to each other at the center and suddenly
lunged at him with a knife. Ruiz was stabbed
several times in the upper torso and arm. Cruz
ed but was arrested a few blocks away from
the site. Ruiz died the following afternoon.
Schizophrenia medication and other signs
of psychiatric problems were found at Cruzs
home during a police search after the stab-
bing. Although prosecutors and police at the
time cited Cruzs severe psychiatric history,
they believed the motive in the unprovoked
stabbing was mistaken identity.
Before he could be tried, Cruz was deemed
incompetent by two of three court-appointed
doctors and committed in March 2005. Three
years later, he returned to San Mateo County
but was re-hospitalized that July. After three
years, he was placed under a Murphy conser-
vatorship which gives the San Mateo County
Public Guardian the authority to make deci-
sions on his behalf. He has since been at the
Crestwood Behavioral Health Center near
Calistoga.
Cruz is denitely schizophrenic but may
also have other diagnoses such as schizo-
effective disorder, OMalley said.
Every single health expert who has ever
examined him even before his appearance in
the criminal justice system has diagnosed him
with a mental disorder, OMalley said.
He remains in custody without bail.

Caltrans to fund study of vehicle
deer collisions on Interstate 280
Starting next month, game wardens with tranquilizer guns
might be visible along Interstate 280 in San Mateo County.
Caltrans is funding a study by the University of California at
Davis to track deer movement to reduce deer versus vehicle
collisions along the Interstate 280 corridor, state Department
of Fish and Game spokeswoman Janice Mackey said.
Biologists from the DFG and UC Davis will be in the
Woodside area between Dec. 2 and Dec. 11, aiming to put
radio collars on 15 deer that will help track their movements in
the area over an 18-month period, Mackey said.
Some deer will be trapped and others will be shot with tran-
quilizer dart guns.
The California Highway Patrol is alerting motorists that
some of the trapping activity might be visible from the high-
way, which runs along vast tracts of open space, including the
San Francisco State Fish and Game Refuge.
The radio collars will automatically fall off the animals after
about six months, and another set of 15 deer will be collared
for a second phase of the study, according to the DFG.
The goal of the study is to protect the regional deer popula-
tion as well as safeguard drivers, Mackey said.
DUI checkpoint planned for this weekend
Redwood City police will conduct a DUI checkpoint
Saturday at southbound El Camino Real at Edgewood Road
between the hours of 6 p.m. and 2 a.m.
Ofcers will contact drivers passing through the checkpoint
for signs of alcohol and/or drug impairment. Ofcers will also
check for proper licensing.
Drivers caught driving under the inuence can expect jail,
license suspension and insurance increases, as well as nes,
fees, DUI classes and other expenses that can exceed $10,000,
according to Redwood City police.

SACRAMENTO Lawmakers con-
cerned about the safety of the states
bridges questioned the California
Department of Transportations internal
safeguards Tuesday after reports that
test results were falsied for three proj-
ects.
They also criticized Caltrans for not
acting more quickly when questions
were raised in 2008 about the work of a
state engineer who was recently red
for reporting bogus testing data about
three Caltrans projects.
Experts could have retested pilings
anchoring the new eastern span of the
San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge if
they had known
sooner the engineer
had falsied tests on
three other construc-
tion projects, an of-
cial with the Bay
Area Toll Authority
told a legislative
committee.
The hearing by the
S e n a t e
Transportation Committee came a day
after Caltrans released thousands of
pages of documents it says show struc-
tures inspected by Duane Wiles are safe.
That includes the span of the Bay
Bridge, which is scheduled to open in
2013.
Wiles is not accused of falsifying tests
on the Bay Bridge, and there is no evi-
dence its construction is faulty. Wiles
has not responded to repeated requests
for comment.
Caltrans documents say he admitted
to faking data, but he has made no pub-
lic statements and has not been charged
with any crime.
This is obviously something of con-
cern to the public when we hear ... falsi-
fying of data when it comes to crucial
infrastructure, said Sen. Bob Huff, a
Republican committee member from
Diamond Bar. The public wants to
know, are they safe?
The Toll Bridge Program Oversight
Committee, which oversees earthquake
protection for Californias toll bridges,
has requested a review by independent
experts to make sure the foundation of
the new Bay Bridge tower is solid.

Video footage of Lt. John Pike and anoth-

Chancellor Linda
Katehi, who has faced
criticism from stu-

auditorium lled with
a little more than
1,000 students that she asked police to
remove tents from the universitys quad but
did not direct them to forcibly remove the

I explicitly directed the chief of police
that violence should be avoided at all
costs, she said. It was the absolute last
thing I ever wanted to happen.

Group to back candidates
who support Occupy goals
LOS ANGELES A California
graduate student has formed a politi-
cal committee that intends to raise
money to support congressional can-
didates who back the goals of the
Occupy Wall Street movement,
records showed Tuesday.
So far, its a one-person operation.
The Occupy the Congress committee
plans to launch a website where sup-
porters can donate money to the newly
established group, said Joshua Green,
its founder and chairman.
With the 2012 elections on the hori-
zon I feel strongly that the movement
needs to engage the political process,
said Green, who is studying for a doc-
torate in political science at the
University of California, Berkeley.
About 100 protesters
call for End to Fed
LOS ANGELES A crowd of
anti-Wall Street sympathizers who
gathered on the steps of the Federal
Reserve Building for a protest and
rally have begun to disperse.
About 100 people holding signs and
a large banner that read End the Fed
took turns giving speeches Tuesday
evening calling for an end to the fed-
eral reserve.
The group marched from the
Occupy LA campsite at City Hall to
the federal building for the rally,
which remained peaceful.
Occupy Oakland protesters
camp at foreclosed home
OAKLAND Occupy Oakland
protesters have set up tents on the
property of what they say is a fore-
closed home as demonstrators at other
camps cleared out in response to
police orders to vacate.
About 10 tents were standing on the
lot in the citys West Oakland neigh-
borhood Tuesday morning. Protesters
say they have the permission of the

WASHINGTON Hidden dangers lurk in
some of those less-expensive toys that parents
might grab as stocking stuffers this time of
year like a Sesame Street Oscar the Grouch
doll.
The small furry green Oscar, purchased for
$6.99, was one of the toys singled out in the
annual toy safety report from the U.S. Public
Interest Research Group.
The consumer advocates report, released
Tuesday, found just over a dozen toys on store
shelves that violate federal safety standards.
Some had unsafe levels of lead or chemicals
called phthalates, and others contained small
parts that young children could choke on.
Besides Oscar, other toys deemed potentially
dangerous included a plastic book for babies;
a $1 plastic mini-crossbow that res off little
balls and a hand-held whirly wheel.
The Oscar doll has a small hat that could
come off easily, which is a possible choking
hazard, PIRG said. The crossbows small
parts also put young children at risk of chok-
ing, according to the report.
The book and the whirly wheel had high
levels of lead, according to the study. But an
importer of the whirly wheel disputes that,
and says the companys own testing shows the
spinning magnetic toy with lead levels well
below the limit.
PIRG also warned about toys that are too
loud and could lead to damaged hearing, such
as an Elmo talking cellphone that the group
says tested just above voluntary industry
noise limits.
Ed Mierzwinski, the groups consumer pro-
gram director, said industrial chemicals and
toxins in toys were the biggest problems the
group found this year. Exposure to lead can
cause irreversible brain damage, and some
studies have linked phthalates to reproductive
problems.
Toy makers played down the report and
pointed to government gures showing sharp
declines in the number of national toy recalls.
All eyes have been on toy safety for sever-
al years now, says Joan Lawrence, the Toy
Industry Associations vice president for safe-
ty standards. I am condent that the toys on
store shelves are safe. The toy industry works
year-round on this.
Government gures show 34 toy recalls in
scal year 2011 down from 46 recalls the
previous year; 50 in 2009 and 172 in 2008.
Recalls related to lead were down from 19 in
2008 to four this past year.
PIRG credited a 2008 law that set stronger
standards for childrens products, including
strict limits on lead, for helping to make many
of the products on store shelves safer for
youngsters.
Toy safety report finds some holiday dangers

WASHINGTON Unemployment rates
fell in three-quarters of U.S. states last month,
a sign that many parts of the country are expe-
riencing modest job gains.
Unemployment rates fell in 36 states in
October and rose in only 5, the Labor
Department said Tuesday. Rates were
unchanged in 9 states. Thats the best showing
since April, when rates fell in 39 states.
Nationally, the unemployment rate ticked
down to 9 percent in October, from 9.1 per-
cent the previous month. Employers added a
modest 80,000 net jobs last month and the
previous two months were revised to show
much stronger gains.
Still, at least 125,000 jobs a month are
needed to keep up with population growth,
and at least double that amount to rapidly
reduce the unemployment rate.
Nevada had the nations highest unemploy-
ment rate for the 17th straight month. It was
unchanged at 13.4 percent. California had the
second-highest rate at 11.7 percent.
Mississippi and Michigan had the next high-
est rates, both at 10.6 percent.
North Dakota reported the nations lowest
unemployment rate, at 3.5 percent. It was fol-
lowed by Nebraska, at 4.2 percent.
Unemployment rates in Alabama, Michigan
and Minnesota all dropped by a half of a per-
centage point the biggest declines among
states.
Hawaii, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana and
Oklahoma all reported small increases in their
unemployment rates.
Employers added jobs in 39 states. Payrolls
declined in 11 states.
Illinois added 30,000 jobs, the most among
states. It was followed by California, which
added 25,700.
Illinois job growth appears to have encour-
aged many people who had stopped looking
for work to resume job searches, increasing
the size of the labor force. That caused the
unemployment rate to rise, despite the job
gain.
Wisconsin reported the biggest job loss, a
drop of 9,700, followed by New York, which
shed 8,300.

MANCHESTER, N.H. President
Barack Obama dashed into politically
important New Hampshire Tuesday,
seeking to steal the spotlight from
Republican presidential candidates and
challenging GOP lawmakers back in
Washington to stand by their anti-tax
pledges on one big measure.
He was greeted with a blunt message
from Republican contender Mitt Romney,
who bought campaign ads telling Obama,
Your policies have failed.
In his rst trip to New Hampshire in
nearly two years, the president was con-
fronted by a state that has shifted sharply
to the right since his victory here in the
2008 election. The states crucial inde-
pendent voters sided solidly with
Republicans in the 2010 midterms, and
recent polls suggest Obama would lose to
Romney by 10 percentage points here if
the election were held today.
Seeking to boost his appeal with inde-
pendents in this low-tax state, Obama
urged Congress to extend a Social
Security payroll tax cut due to expire next
month. In effect, he dared Republicans
many of whom have signed anti-tax
pledges to vote against an extension, a
move the White House says would lead to
a $1,000 tax hike on a family making
$50,000 a year.
If lawmakers vote no, your taxes go
up. Yes, you get a tax cut, Obama told
the crowd. Which way do you think
Congress should vote?
Dont be a Grinch. Dont vote to raise
taxes on working Americans during the
holidays, he said during his speech at a
Manchester high school.
Democrats had hoped to tuck the pay-
roll tax extension, as well as a renewal of
jobless benets, into an agreement from
the congressional decit-reduction super-
committee.
Obama: Im a tax cutter
GOP contenders
say do not slash
military budget
By Philip Elliott
WASHINGTON Republican presidential hopefuls
warned in near unanimity against deep cuts in the nations
defense budget Tuesday night, assailing
President Barack Obama in campaign
debate but disagreeing over the extent of
reductions the Pentagon should absorb to
reduce decits and repair the frail U.S.
economy.
The debate ranged widely, from Irans
threat to develop a nuclear weapon to the
anti-terror Patriot Act, the war in
Afghanistan, U.S-Pakistan relations and
illegal immigrants who have entered the
U.S. across the Mexican border. Former
House Speaker Newt Gingrich said some
should be allowed to stay, drawing re
from rivals Mitt Romney and Michele
Bachman.
On defense spending, former
Massachusetts Gov. Romney said nearly
$1 trillion in cuts are on the horizon for the
Pentagon over the next decade, noting that
is the same as the costs for the nations new
health care law. He blamed Obama for that,
adding, We need to protect America and
protect our troops and our military and stop
the idea of Obamacare.
Texas Gov. Rick Perry was harshly criti-
cal of the magnitude of potential cuts say-
ing the Obama administrations Pentagon
chief had called them irresponsible. If
Leon Panetta is an honorable man, he
should resign in protest, Perry said.
Neither Perry nor Romney specied if
they support any cuts in the Pentagons
accounts, but Gingrich and Jon Huntsman,
one-time ambassador to China, both indicated the topic should
be on the table as budget-cutters look for savings.

GREAT NECK, N.Y. At least 20 current
or former high school students from an afu-
ent New York suburb of high achievers have
been charged in a widening college entrance
exam cheating scandal that has raised ques-
tions not only about test security but about the
pressures to score well.
Thirteen students from the Great Neck area,
a cluster of Long Island communities with
top-ranked schools that send virtually all their
graduates to college, were implicated in the
latest round of charges, led Tuesday. Seven
others were arrested in September.
Prosecutors said 15 high school students
hired ve other people for anywhere from
$500 to $3,600 each to take the SAT or ACT
for them. The impostors all of them college
students who attended Great Neck-area public
and private high schools fooled test admin-
istrators by showing up for the exams with
phony ID.
Honest, hardworking students are taking a
back seat to the cheaters, Nassau County
District Attorney Kathleen Rice said. This is
a system begging for security enhancements.
Prosecutors actually suspect 40 students
were involved in the cheating, but the two-
year statute of limitation had expired for the
others, Rice said.
All the defendants but three, who were
awaiting arraignment, pleaded not guilty.
The scandal prompted New York state law-
makers to convene a hearing on test security,
and a rm run by former FBI Director Louis
Freeh was retained by exam administrators to
review procedures.

At Crossroads Health Center, your
Satisfaction is Guaranteed. Let us help you
get the quality of life back that you deserve.
M
y name is Dr. Thomas Ferrigno D.C., owner
of Crossroads Health Center in Campbell and
San Mateo. I understand what it feels like to live with
chronic back pain. Due to several auto accidents and
sports injuries, I have personally suffered from multiple
disc herniations in both my neck and lower back and
understand rsthand the severe pain and disability that
comes with these types of injuries to the point where I
was forced to sell all 3 of my practices. I did not want
to have spinal surgery due to the high risk; instead I
wanted a non-surgical non-invasive therapy that would
help me manage my condition.
That is when I turned to Spinal Decompression, not as
a doctor, but as a patient and it completely changed my
life. Within a few months my pain went from severe to
mild and I was able to return back to my activities of
golf, weight lifting and spending quality time with my
family. It has been my mission ever since to share this
great new technology with as many people as possible.
While non-surgical spinal decompression is a rather
new treatment, theres plenty of research to back up its
claims. Give us a call and we will send you the studies
or visit my website at www.BayAreaBackPain.Com.
However its the results we see every day in our ofce
that get us so excited about this new non-invasive
treatment. Read what a few of our patients are saying.
My severe lower back and sciatica pain have
been reduced signicantly since receiving spinal
decompression therapy. I am now able to walk, golf
and do things without pain that I havent been able to
do for years.
Thank you, Dr. Ferrigno
C.M. Allard
During the 1 1/2 years of having constant daily lower
back pain and spasms, I took anti-inammatory and
pain medication, but nothing helped lessen the pain.
Physical therapy didnt help. When an MRI showed that
I had two degenerative discs, I went through a series of
lumbar epidural injections. The rst one helped a tiny
bit, but the others didnt do a thing for my pain. The
only thing that made the pain and spasms go away was
Spinal Decompression treatments at Crossroads Health
Center. Four years later and I am still pain-free!

CAIRO Egypts military ruler
promised Tuesday to speed up a
presidential election to the first half
of 2012 and said the armed forces
were prepared to hold a referendum
on immediately shifting power to
civilians concessions swiftly
rejected by tens of thousands of
protesters in Tahrir Square, who
chanted, Leave! Leave!
The latest standoff plunged the
country deeper into crisis less than
a week before parliamentary elec-
tions, the first since the ouster nine
months ago of longtime authoritar-
ian leader Hosni Mubarak.
In a televised address to the
nation, Field Marshal Hussein
Tantawi rejected all criticism of
the militarys handling of the tran-
sitional period and sought to cast
himself and the generals on the
military council he heads as the
nations foremost patriots.
Significantly, he made no mention
of the throngs of protesters gath-
ered in Tahrir Square to demand
that he step down immediately in
favor of an interim civilian coun-
cil.
Tantawi spoke as protesters
fought army soldiers and police for
a fourth day in streets leading to the
iconic square that was the birth-
place of Egypts uprising, particu-
larly near the heavily fortified
Interior Ministry, which is in
charge of police. Nearly 30 people
have been killed in the violence,
mostly in Cairo, and at least 2,000
have been wounded.

ISLAMABAD Pakistans
envoy to Washington lost a battle
with the countrys powerful generals
to keep his job Tuesday over allega-
tions he wrote a memo seeking U.S.
help in stopping a supposed coup in
the aftermath of the American raid
that killed Osama bin Laden.
The resignation of Hussain
Haqqani highlighted tensions
between the countrys nominal civil-
ian government and the army, which
has ruled Pakistan for most of its
history.
Haqqani, a key ally of President
Asif Ali Zardari, was well regarded
by Obama administration ofcials in
Washington, where many lawmak-
ers view Pakistan with suspicion if
not hostility.
Although Haqqani said he hoped
his stepping down would end the
scandal which Pakistanis have
called mem-
ogate specu-
lation remained
over whether it
could yet engulf
Zardari. The
unpopular leader
has faced ques-
tions over
whether he also
knew about the
mysterious memo, which right-
wing, pro-army media outlets have
described as treasonous.
Haqqani said he stood by earlier
denials he had nothing to do with
the letter, which was sent soon after
the bin Laden raid to then-U.S. mil-
itary chief Adm. Mike Mullen. The
envoy and his supporters have
alleged the memo was a hoax
cooked up by the military establish-
ment to get rid of him and weaken
the Zardari government and demo-
cratic institutions explosive
charges in a country that has seen at
least three military coups.

Jon Mays Nov. 18 column on the
path to prosperity was perfect. From a
fellow Generation Xer, you are exactly
right. Generation Y has replaced
Generation X. They are called
Generation Y because everything is:
Why me? Why do I have to? Why
not? Why cant I? Why should I?
and Whats in it for me? both in the

Spend your life away
Editor,
It is amazing to hear Republicans and
their supporters talk about wasteful
government spending in Washington. It
wasnt too long ago when another man
was in the White House, and there was
this war in Iraq going on he initiated. I
think the cost of it was more than $3
billion every week. It was one of the
reasons why the rst woman to be
speaker of the house was elected,
Nancy Pelosi. However even Nancy
Pelosi couldnt put a stop to this gov-
ernment spending. I think the spending
went on for about ve years continu-
ously. Billions upon billions of taxpay-
er dollars were wasted every month,
not to mention countless young
American lives. This is the type of
spending I dont like. I would prefer to
be spending my tax dollars on pro-
grams that would help the poor, and
neediest in our society.

Letters to the editor
By Pam Frisella
I
am paying tribute to two people
who have played an enormous
role in my life and certainly in the
lives of the people who live and work
in Foster City.
First, a man I met 11 years ago when
I joined the Rotary Club of Foster City,
a man who I learned played an integral
part in why we are one of the most suc-
cessful cities in this state. Those rst
few years I only knew him as Rick, the
BBQ guy, Rick, the parrot juice guy
(private joke here) and Rick, the never-
ending volunteer for everything our
Rotary Club did to raise money to give
right back to the betterment of our city.
When I then entered the political
arena, I learned this man, of course you
now know it is Mr. Rick Wykoff, was
way more than just a good guy.
Day by day, I learned of his contribu-
tions to this city. Every day of his 17
years as city manager strengthened our
foundation and shored us up for the
years to come. Of course, then deciding
to run for our City Council was another
way to contribute to our ongoing suc-
cess. Besides knowing where the bod-
ies were buried as staff, he had institu-
tional knowledge and that resource was
paramount to the rest of the council
members. Rick will be termed out Dec.
5 after 10 years on the City Council.
In the six years I have shared the dais
with Rick, I have listened and learned
from his expertise and wisdom. I thank
Rick Wykoff for sharing his life politi-
cally as well as personally and for
allowing me to see who he really is as a
human being and my friend. I will
always listen to his advice and counsel
over these next two years, but will miss
the knowing glances during some of
those long meetings. The good news is
that there is still lunch every
Wednesday with our Rotary Club. Im
pretty sure I will still be getting his
wife, Judies, take on our meetings
which are so welcome because she just
makes me smile.
Simply put, though I
will miss my friend
and my colleague,
meetings will never
be the same!
Second, I met a
woman about 30
years ago when a
group of girls start-
ed playing Pedro. After trips to Reno
playing cards on the train, we bonded.
Our bond, of course, has strengthened
over the last six years as colleagues on
our City Council.
This woman, Linda Koelling, stepped
into the political arena like she was
born for it. Taking charge of every
committee assigned, then joining others
of which she soon became the leader,
she made a name for herself and put
Foster City on the map with her
involvement. Every city councilmember
and city on the Peninsula knows Linda
and respects all the contributions she
has made. The number of hours Linda
has put into her passion is incompara-
ble. Certainly Measure P was passed by
such a huge margin due to her efforts in
fundraising and education of the public.
Linda was president of the League of
California Cities for our Peninsula
Division where she continued to show
her leadership. Lindas contributions
span so many causes, all of which she
participated in for the betterment of our
city. I could list all the boards and com-
mittees she has served on and the suc-
cesses she has enjoyed as mayor in
2011, but I would rather share what she
has meant to me.
Six years ago, she helped me to get
elected and our friendship went to a
new level. She gathered me under her
protective wings and taught me the ins
and outs of local politics, introducing
me to many new people as we followed
this path. She knew I was a deer in the
headlights in the beginning, but in a
non-judgmental way she guided me,
trying to teach me to make decisions
with the facts and not so much with my
heart (still working on that).
Around the Peninsula, people call us
Laverne and Shirley, since we are
always together at dinners, conventions,
meetings and fundraisers (usually
laughing and teasing each other as we
try not to take all this too seriously).
They used to call us Thelma and
Louise, but we decided we didnt like
the ending of the friendship and fought
over who would be Susan Sarandon.
Linda Koelling is my dearest friend,
condant, teacher and my Shirley.
There just arent words to express how
much I will miss sharing the dais with
her. Linda and I will still go to movies,
lunch and play Mexican Train and
Pedro. Im sure Ill get more than a few
phone calls after the rst meetings
without her to go over what I couldve
done differently. I will always listen to
her. Unfortunately, Linda will also be
termed out Dec. 5 after eight years on
the City Council.
Foster City will miss Rick Wykoff
and Linda Koelling, but their contribu-
tions to this city will be felt for decades
to come. Good luck to you both as new
adventures await: for Linda, maybe
another elected position or role in gov-
ernment and for Rick, sh to be caught
(or not). Im not sure he actually takes
the pole, I need pictures!
I believe I speak for Foster City and
our staff when I say that we will miss
you both beyond what words can con-
vey. Im grateful my time on the City
Council was spent, in part, with you
both.

City Council. She can be reached at

Two extraordinary people
Please explain!
I

had been rescued, the
nail had fallen out, he
recovered, and was soon
released into the wild.
Good for him, I thought.
Then, a little later, when
thinking about
Thanksgiving dinner, I
wondered how many
turkeys are giving their
lives just to supply din-
ners for that one day.
How many were tortured
by being forced to grow under horrible circumstances?
Suddenly all that fuss over one hawk seemed very excessive.
There is even a $1,000 reward for anyone who can provide
information leading to who shot the hawk!
When we get together with relatives for Thanksgiving, we
have turkey and tofurkey (a turkey shaped tofu based entre)
since some at the table are vegetarians. These are people
who truly believe that no one should harm any living ani-
mals. They put up with the rest of us who eat the turkey and
we honor their sensitivities, but looking at that tofurkey
always makes me think about all of the ducks and deer, etc.
that are killed during hunting season and, yes, the 46 million
turkeys grown for Thanksgiving. Add the beef, lamb, pork
and chicken that are the staples of most Americans diets and
our disregard for the collateral suffering of the animals and
compare that with the fuss over an injury to one hawk!
Next is that In God We Trust thing the idea of some
in the South to slather it across many public buildings.
Apparently some Christian fundamentalists are hell-bent
(pardon the pun) in spreading the word that they think is the
only way to believe. Are they trying to let people know that
this is a Christian nation and if you believe differently that
you are not one of us? Do they think that trusting in God
will save this country? Do they think that those who dont
trust in God cannot be good people who are assets to this
country? Do they want to impose their beliefs on everyone
else? What other myths are they attached to?
It makes you wonder why so many people have to worship
a deity or a person or an idol. Doesnt history record enough
turmoil and slaughter caused by those who have rmly
attached themselves to one religion or another? And why do
so many latch themselves on to egocentric politicians and
believe everything they are told without entertaining a
thought of their own? Others are taken in by a famous and/or
charismatic person and mindlessly believe whatever theyre
told and become very defensive when the person turns out to
be fallible or even criminal.
Third, its those pharmaceuticals that are advertised on tel-
evisions. I usually mute all commercials, but the other day a
particular one caught my attention before I could get to the
remote. It was for Chantrix a prescription drug thats sup-
posed to help people stop smoking if it doesnt kill them
rst (One study found an increased risk of suicide, cardio-
vascular disease and heart attacks). I guess the idea is that a
smoker will insist that their MD prescribe it for him/her. Or
maybe the hope is that it will be acquired over the Internet
where prescription laws might be circumvented.
Its hard to fathom how anyone would even consider tak-
ing any of those advertised drugs after they hear or read the
possible side effects (At least thats a requirement that big
pharma didnt overcome). The industry must gure that there
are enough gullible people who will fall for their hype and
try to convince their doctors to prescribe such drugs (and
enough MDs who will comply) to make it worthwhile to
advertise.
Finally, its the Duggars who are expecting their 20th
child. Recently they were on the Today Show again. After I
changed channels, I wondered if they get all that publicity
because they are considered creators of a miracle, a freakish
phenomena or are completely mindless. What could be their
reason for so irresponsibly adding to the population explo-
sion? Religion? (Good God!) Notoriety? (Sick!) Love of
children? (No way!) Whatever the reason, its based on self-
ishness.
These are just a few of the disturbing mind-boggling phe-
nomena that come up on a regular basis when we watch tele-
vision and read the newspaper and/or news magazines with
an inquiring mind. That philosophizing guru, Mr. Brilliant,
tries to help: Reasonable thought can only go so far ...
beyond that, you must either be unreasonable or stop think-
ing.

NEW YORK A downward revision
of U.S. economic growth in the third
quarter sent stocks lower Tuesday. Higher
borrowing costs for Spain also renewed
worries about Europes debt crisis.
The Commerce Department reported
that the U.S. economy grew at a 2 percent
annual rate from July through September,
down from its initial estimate of 2.5 per-
cent. Economists had expected the gure
to remain the same.
The Dow Jones industrial average lost
53.59 points, or 0.5 percent, to close at
11,493.72. Aluminum maker Alcoa Inc.
led the Dow lower. The Dow had been
down as many as 113 points shortly
before noon.
The Dow plunged 249 points Monday
as a congressional committee failed to
reach a deal to cut budget decits. The
deadlock raised fears that rating agencies
might lower the U.S. governments credit
rating if Congress tries to circumvent the
automatic spending cuts that are sup-
posed to occur in the event of an impasse.
Some Republicans have said they would
try to block cuts to defense spending.
Markets are looking for clarity, and
you didnt get that from the super-com-
mittee, says Steven Ricchiuto, chief
economist at Mizuho Securities. Theres
no reason to believe the economy is going
to get stronger.
Across the Atlantic, there were more
signs of trouble in Europes debt crisis.
Spain was forced to pay sharply higher
interest rates in an auction of short-term
debt. The higher rates suggest that
investors are still skeptical that the coun-
try will get its budget under control
despite a new, center-right government
coming to power this week.
Investors have been worried that Spain
could become the next country to need
financial support from its European
neighbors if its borrowing rates climb to
unsustainable levels. Greece was forced
to seek relief from its lenders after its
long-term borrowing rates rose above 7
percent on the bond market. The rate on
Spains own benchmark 10-year bond is
dangerously close to that level, 6.58 per-
cent.
The Standard & Poors 500 fell 4.94
points, or 0.4 percent, to 1,188.04. The
Nasdaq composite fell 1.86, or 0.1 per-
cent, to 2,521.28.
It was the fth straight decline for the
S&P 500, the longest losing streak since
August. The S&P has lost 5.5 percent
over the past week on worries that Spain
could get dragged into Europes debt cri-
sis and as Congress neared a deadlock
over cutting the U.S. budget decit.

WILMINGTON, Del. A
California solar panel manufacturer
that received a half-billion dollar loan
from the federal government has been
unable to attract much interest in its
operations and now hopes to sell its
assets piecemeal.
Officials with Fremont-based
Solyndra LLC had hoped to sell the
company to a buyer who would keep it
operating. But it told a U.S. bankruptcy
trustee on Tuesday that no qualified
bidders have come forward.
Solyndras chief restructuring officer,
Todd Neilson, said the company had
received only one bid.
It was extremely low-ball, he
explained. It was mainly designed to
take the equipment and the real estate at
an extraordinarily low price.
Neilson said five potential bidders
mostly from other countries are still
conducting due diligence, and its
highly unlikely one will want to buy
its whole operation.
I would be pleasantly but seriously
surprised if someone came in with a
reasonable offer, he said.
Solyndra, which had said a sale of the
companys assets in one lot was the best
opportunity to maximize recoveries for
creditors, is now looking at separate
auctions for its machinery and equip-
ment, real estate and intellectual prop-
erty.
Neilson said Solyndra officials were
disappointed, but not shocked, that a
buyer has not emerged, even though the
companys financial advisers contacted
more than 100 prospective buyers. The
bid deadline has been extended twice.
Solyndra representatives blamed the
lack of interest on the economy, not the
political fallout stemming from
Solyndras failure.
Buyers show little interest in Solyndra
Economy grew at 2
percent rate in 3Q
By Martin Crutsinger
WASHINGTON The U.S. economy grew more slowly
over the summer than the government had earlier estimated
because businesses cut back more sharply on restocking of
shelves.
The Commerce Department said Tuesday that the economy
expanded at an annual rate of 2 percent in the July-September
quarter, lower than an initial 2.5 percent estimate made last
month. The government also said after-tax incomes fell by the
largest amount in two years, reecting high unemployment and
lower pay raises.
The downward revision was largely because weaker data on
inventory building came in after the governments rst esti-
mate. Many businesses reduced their stockpiles over the sum-
mer, probably because they didnt anticipate the strength con-
sumer and business spending.
Fed considers more clarity on interest rate policy
WASHINGTON Federal Reserve policymakers this
month discussed how they could give businesses and investors
more information about what might trigger an increase in
interest rates, according to minutes of the Nov. 1-2 meeting.
But the Fed held off making any changes.
A panel headed by Vice Chairman Janet Yellen is exploring
ways to provide more information on future central bank
moves. More clarity on interest rate policy could help reassure
investors and businesses that rates will stay low.
At its August meeting, the Fed said it planned to keep short-
term rates near zero until at least mid-2013, as long as eco-
nomic growth remained weak.

STANFORD COACH GOES ON OFFENSE: DAVID SHAW PLEADS FOOTBALL TEAMS CASE, RAILS AGAINST BCS >>> PAGE 12

There were only two things Menlo-
Atherton volleyball coach Jen Wilson knew
about visiting St. Marys-Stockton when the
Bears hosted the Rams in the rst round of the
Northern California Division tournament
Tuesday night.
One, like the Bears, the Rams had lost in
their section championship match, and two,
they would not be an easy out.
We didnt know too much about them,
Wilson said.
M-A found out real quick St. Marys was
going to be a formidable opponent. The two
teams traded games before the Bears rallied
from a 4-0 decit in Game 5 to record a 25-22,
21-25, 25-15, 20-25, 15-9.
We havent played that many Game 5s this
year, Wilson said. (Playing a fth set) is def-
initely a mental thing. Every point is that
much more important. (It was great) to know
we had pressure and (had) to rise to meet it.
In other Nor Cal action, Sacred Heart Prep
swept its way into the second round the
Division IV tournament with a 25-15, 25-11,
25-15 win over No. 4 seed Willows. In
Division V action, No. 5 Woodside Priory
dropped the rst set before winning the next
three to eliminate No. 4 Ripon Christian 14-
25, 25-17, 25-23.
After winning Game 4, St. Marys (27-10)
carried that momentum in the nal game, get-
ting four straight kills to take a 4-0 lead. M-A
Pauli King went up for an attack and mishit it
but it fell for the Bears rst point and set-
tled them down. The Rams eventually built a
7-4 advantage before M-A came roaring back
as the entire team got involved in all aspects of
the game. Following a St. Marys serving
error which cut M-As decit to 7-5, Peninsula
Athletic League Bay Division Player of the
Year Ali Spindt got involved. She had back-
to-back kills to tie the match at 7 and then a
huge block for a point from Seini Moimoi
gave the Bears the lead they would not relin-
quish. A Rams passing error and another
block from Moimoi put the Bears up 10-8. A
kill by the Rams slowed the Bears roll
momentarily, but Spindt picked up her fourth
kill of the game for an 11-8 lead. The Rams
got one more point to close to 11-9, but
Moimois third block of the game, an ace from
M-A advances in Nor Cal tournament

There arent a lot of athletes at the high
school level that can say theyve never lost the
last game of a season.
Sacred Heart Preps Pippa Temple is on that
short and astonishing list.
And while a lot of that distinction has to do
with the team Prep sends out to the pool year
in and year out, the truth is, Temple is the
motor, the heart, the wave that starts it off for
the Gators. And thats the way its been for her
four years at Sacred Heart Prep.
Its pretty amazing, said SHP coach Jon
Burke. Its unbelievable. Weve never had an
athlete accomplish that before.
Burke reeled off a handful of other words
when describing Temple, but ultimately, the
one that counts is: champion. Or perhaps
more tting, four-time CCS champion.
Temple was at the forefront of Preps latest
run at a Central Coast Section title. They
accomplished the ultimate goal on Saturday
with an 11-4 win over Los Altos. It was Preps
fth straight CCS title, which is a record.
In the championship game, Temple scored a
team-high ve goals. Her performance in the
title match proceeded a seven-goal effort
against Burlingame in the seminals. Overall,
it may have seemed like another day at the
ofce for the Gator.
But rest assured, those who have ever won
or ever wanted to win a CCS title can
appreciate Temple, her career and her per-
formances when a championship was on the
line.
For her efforts, Temple is the Daily Journal
Athlete of the Week.
Preps latest run at a title presented Temple
and the Gators with a bit of a challenge. Los
Altos tore up the nets offensively coming into
Saturdays contest. The Eagles also focused
their defensive efforts on stopping Temple
from doing her work from the center position.
There was a long stretch of time in that
championship match where she was at the
Temple is too tough

Sacred Heart Preps Pippa Temple scored 12 goals in two games last week,including ve in the
CCS championship match, as she helped lead the Gators to their fth straight CCS title.
O
ver at the Bowl Championship
Series, the short answer to the
question of when there will be a
playoff in college football remains the
same.
Never.
But get back in touch with the BCS next
week, or better yet, with their sponsors
after the Jan. 9 championship game and
ask the question then.
For years now, playoff advocates have
been drawing up nightmare scenarios that
would shame the BCS out of business, but
this season its practi-
cally guaranteed that
the title game will
leave many fans unsat-
ised.
Last week, four of
the top seven teams in
the BCS standings lost
their footing and left
an unprecedented
three teams from the
same division the
SEC West holding
down the top of the
leaderboard.
Two of them, most likely current No. 1
LSU and No. 2 Alabama, gure to be on
hand at the Superdome for the title game.
But even if No. 3 Arkansas grabs one of
those spots, the newly crowned BCS
champion will seem more mythical than
ever.
Remember, the BCS hijacked the post-
season in 1998 with the promise of match-
ing the No. 1 and No. 2 teams at the very
end. And every time logic didnt jibe with
their rankings, the guys in charge
tweaked the formula after the champi-
onship game and promised it wouldnt
happen again. You can argue over which
school got jobbed the worst since then, but
the two unofcial tweaks that matter here
a team must win its conference champi-
onship; the BCS nale shouldnt be a
rematch of a regular-season game likely
BCS runs out
of tweaks, luck

There was something very tting about the
way the College of San Mateo football team
ended their 2011 season.
In a season where the Bulldogs lit up the
scoreboard almost every single weekend,
those who followed CSM know that the
defense was just as apt to nd the endzone as
the offense.
And in Saturdays 62-24 victory at the
Bothman Bulldog Bowl, the 2011 season
came to an end with the defense scoring the
years nal two touchdowns both on Pick-
6s.
Our guys did an outstanding job, especial-
ly in the rst half, said Tim Tulloch, CSM
defensive coordinator and assistant head
coach. They really executed the game plan
well. It was a very talented DVC team that is
like every other team in the conference. And
like every other team in the conference,
theyre a 40-plus points per game team.
Theyre very high-scoring, speed-and-space
team, and our guys executed. Theyve been
doing that all year. With the exception of one
or two, every game has been like that. Our
guys y around, they hit, theyre aggressive,
they play hard.
CSM set all sorts of records in their season-
ending victory, their sixth at the Bulldog Bowl
most points in a game, most rushing yards,
most total offensive yards, longest run from
scrimmage and most touchdowns scored by a
single player, just to name a few.
But it was the defense that set the tone en
route to their eighth win of the season. And
the task going in wasnt necessarily an easy
one with the way Diablo Valley College
moved the ball in 2011 to the tune of 458
yards a game and 36 points per.
We look forward to it, said CSM line-
backer DJ McDonough about the challenge of
stopping yet another high-powered offense. I
think we played better against shotgun teams

A handful of games into the new season for
the College of San Mateo basketball team, and
the biggest thing on Michelle Warners mind
isnt a statistic, wins or losses.
Five games in and all the head coach wants
to see is her team healthy. And unfortunately,
the process of getting her team onto the court
has the Bulldogs taking their occasional
lumps.
I would like everyone to get healthy,
Warner said. A week before the season start-
ed, we lost our starting center (Sarah Balling)
to a concussion. And then both of our fresh-
men centers have been playing injured with
shoulders and ankles. So that hurts us on the
inside with rebounding. So thats been some-
thing weve been really focusing on.
The Bulldogs came into last nights game
against Hartnell averaging 36 rebounds per
game. But the absence of healthy front court
has guard Kimmie Fung leading the way with
6.8 rebounds per game. So for Warner, the
task has been monitoring the health of her
players, while taking this as an opportunity to
get her girls to rebound as a team.
The girls want to play. But its hard to tell
them, Hey, we still have conference coming,
we have our tournament. Id rather you get
stronger and healthier now and the rest of you
learn to help rebound. Because (rebounding
is) a team thing. So, I focus more on the team
rebounding. I dont really care who gets the
rebound, as long as its someone in blue and
white. We all have to work together just
getting them to understand you cant take pos-
sessions off.
For CSM, its also been a matter of getting
some players who arent accustomed to taking
the lead to take a big leap forward.
Its making everyone step up and con-
tribute, Warner said, being ready every day
all the time, being consistent for 40 minutes.
Because, well have great streaks where Ill be
like, Yeah, thats the team I know, and then
well have the exact opposite. Its like two
extremes. Its a team I dont even recognize
and then, Yeah, there we are, and then, Who
is that? Our extremes need to even out a
little more.
Warner is hoping her girls can make that
adjustment as they creep closer and closer to
league play.
Its very different from the team last year,
she said. They werent really depended on to
step up every game. Now, theyre all expected
to step up every single game. They have more
of the load on them. We have very balanced
scoring. If our shooting percentage was better,
we would have ve people in double digits. I
think thats what theyre beginning to realize;
dont look around for someone else to step up
thats you. We need all of you. We dont
have a superstar averaging 20-30 points a
game. We have ve people that need to aver-
age 10-13 points.
Cross country
A pair of runners represented CSM at the
NCAA championships in Indiana over the
weekend.
Hamza Rahrki nished the four-mile course
with a time of 22:30, good for 130th.
On the womens side, Alejandra Marins
20:30 was good for 100th in the 5 kilometer
race.
She went out very aggressive and then
kind of, proceeded to pay for it, said CSM
head coach Joe Mangan of Marin. I think it
was a great freshman experience for her to get
out there. I was hoping shed run closer to 20-
at. I was hoping shed be a little faster, but
she wasnt able to maintain that pace.
Health and team play crucial to CSM success
By Antonio Gonzalez
STANFORD All season Stanford coach David Shaw has kept quiet
about the Bowl Championship Series rankings and tried to keep the focus
on his teams upcoming opponent.
Not anymore.
Shaw came ready to rail at the BCS at his weekly news conference
Tuesday. He opened his iPad on the table and began with a 2 1/2-minute
opening statement that discussed the system for the rst time in his short
coaching career.
The bottom line is the BCS is awed, Shaw said. They themselves
know it, which is why theyve proposed a lot of changes going forward.
All Ive heard all year is the computers dont like Stanford. The comput-
ers havent programmed themselves.
Stanford, No. 4 in the AP poll, ranks sixth in the
BCS and hosts No. 22 Notre Dame on Saturday night
in the regular-season nale. Top-ranked LSU is unde-
feated and is followed by several one-loss teams,
starting with Alabama and Arkansas.
Shaw said No. 5 Virginia Tech doesnt belong
ahead of the Cardinal (10-1, 8-1) because the Pac-12
is stronger than the Atlantic Coast Conference. He
also contends No. 4 Oklahoma State doesnt deserve
a higher ranking because it lost 37-31 at unranked
Iowa State which he perceives as a worse defeat
in double overtime.
Stanford lost 53-30 at home to No. 10 Oregon.
To have a one-loss Pac-12 team behind a one-loss ACC team means
that the computer values the ACC more than it values the Pac-12, which
I dont believe is the case. I dont believe that is accurate, Shaw said.
You look at common opponents. (Virginia Tech) beat Duke by four. We
beat them by 30. I keep hearing about quality wins, quality wins, quali-
ty wins. First off, who decides what the quality wins are? And secondly,
how does a quality or non-quality loss effect people?
Oklahoma State is outstanding, Shaw added. Theyre a very good
football team. Once again, we lost to a team thats in the top 10. They lost
to a team thats not ranked. I dont get it. Not saying that where we
should be as opposed to where other people are. Im just saying the
explanations that I get dont make any sense.
Join the club.
The BCS has been one of the most debated topics in the nation since
its inception. But Shaw had made a commitment to avoid lobbying for
his team the way so many others do including former Stanford coach
Jim Harbaugh so many times.
With the season nale this week, Shaw nally had enough.
The rst-year head coach deected follow-up questions about his
remarks. He allowed only that a playoff would be difcult to organize
and called any changes he wants to the system irrelevant because the
structure is already in place this season.
It doesnt matter what Id like to see. Thats not where we are right
now, he said.
The Fighting Irish (8-3) will visit The Farm on Saturday night in what
could be Stanfords last chance to show its worth to a national audience.
A win, however, likely will not be enough.
The Cardinal can only reach the Pac-12 title game if Oregon loses at
home to rival Oregon State. Even without a Pac-12 title, a chance to play
for the BCS championship in New Orleans is still there.
Stanford probably needs Alabama to lose to Auburn and Oklahoma
State to drop its home nale against Oklahoma both very possible
to have a real shot at a BCS title berth. Or if Oregon loses and Stanford
can win the Pac-12 championship, the Cardinal could have an argument
Shaw says BCS
flawed, makes
case for Stanford

NEW YORK Ryan Braun sat alone
on a balcony in his Malibu home that over-
looks the Pacic Ocean, uneasy about his
chances of winning the NL Most Valuable
Player award.
With the season Los Angeles Matt
Kemp had, he wasnt sure the call would
come at all.
The phone rang all right, and Braun has
been smiling ever since.
Braun was voted the NL MVP after
helping the Milwaukee Brewers win their
rst division title in nearly 30 years.
Im not going to pretend like I wasnt
anxious or nervous because I was, Braun
said. Its honestly difcult to put into
words how much this means to me.
The left elder received 20 of 32 rst-
place votes and 388 points in voting
announced Tuesday by the Baseball
Writers Association of America.
A nerve-racking morning that began
with a solitary drive turned to elation in the
California sun.
The 28-year-old Braun shared the news
with his brother and girlfriend, who were
at the house. He called his parents, then
rang good friend Aaron Rodgers, the
Green Bay Packers quarterback, and
exchanged text messages with Kemp, the
runner-up.
This really is a dream, Braun said.
This is beyond my wildest dreams to be
in this position at this point in my career.
Kemp earned 10
rst-place votes and
332 points after com-
ing close to winning
the rst Triple Crown
since Carl
Yastrzemski in 1967.
Brauns teammate
Prince Fielder n-
ished third with 229
points, and Arizonas
Justin Upton nished fourth with 214
points. Fielder and Upton each received
one rst-place vote.
St. Louis Albert Pujols nished fth. It
was the 11th straight year the three-time
MVP was in the top 10 in balloting.
NL Cy Young Award winner Los
Angeles Clayton Kershaw was 12th in the
voting a day after Detroits Justin
Verlander added the AL MVP to his Cy
Young.
I think he was the single most domi-
nant player in baseball this year, Braun
said of Verlander. As a position player
Im biased to the fact that I think position
players should be at the forefront of the
award, but if you honestly look at what he
accomplished, how much he meant to that
team and how dominant he truly was you
cannot make any argument against him
winning that award.
In his fth year in the big leagues, Braun
led the NL with a .597 slugging percent-
age and had a chance to overtake Jose
Reyes for the batting title on the last day of
the season but nished second with a .332
average. The four-time All-Star had 33
homers, 111 RBIs, 109 runs scored and
stole 33 bases as Milwaukee won a fran-
chise-best 96 games. His 77 extra-base
hits was tops in the league.
Kemp led the NL with 39 homers, 126
RBIs and was third in average (.324), but
played for the NL Wests third-place
Dodgers. He also won a Gold Glove.
Matts one of the best players in the
game. No question about it. The season he
had will go down as one of the greatest in
Dodgers history, said Braun, who grew
up in California rooting for the Dodgers.
If he had won the MVP I certainly could-
nt have argued with him winning. He had
a phenomenal year.
Although Braun and Kemp had similar
statistics, Kemp was hindered by the
Dodgers 82-79 third-place nish in the
NL West. The Brewers won the NL
Central title, their rst division crown
since winning the AL East in 1982.
Without a doubt I think its a drastical-
ly different experience playing meaningful
games down the stretch, said Braun, the
2007 NL Rookie of the Year.
Braun, in fact, was convinced the
Brewers rst-place nish is what put him
over the top with voters.
If you honestly assess both of our sea-
sons individually I think his numbers are
probably better than mine, and I just feel
fortunate to have been on the better team,
Braun said. Its an individual award, but
its a result of being part of a special team,
a special organization.

NEW YORK Baseball
Commissioner Bud Selig and union head
Michael Weiner smiled and exchanged
handshakes while others in the room dug
into knishes and pigs in a blanket.
Not exactly the kind of scene that played
out in sports labor talks this year.
Baseball ensured itself of 21 consecutive
years of peace at a
time the NBA season
might be canceled
because of a lockout
and the NFL still is
recovering from its
CBA negotiations.
Weve learned,
Selig said Tuesday
after players and own-
ers signed an agree-
ment for a ve-year
contract running until December 2016.
Nobody back in the 70s, 80s and the
early 90s, 1994, would ever believe that
we would have 21 years of labor peace.
The agreement makes MLB the rst pro
major league in North America to conduct
blood tests for human growth hormone,
allowing it during spring training and
future offseasons but for now only study-
ing whether it will be implemented during
the regular season.
MLB and the players union should be
applauded for taking the strong step to
implement the HGH test at the major
league level to protect clean athletes, said
Travis Tygart, chief executive ofcer of the
U.S. Anti-Doping Agency. This is great
progress in MLBs effort to protect the
integrity of baseball at every level.
The deal, which must be ratied by both
sides and drafted into a formal contract,
expands the playoffs from eight to 10
teams by 2013, lessens draft-pick compen-
sation for free agents, expands salary arbi-
tration by a few players and for the rst
time allows teams to trade some draft
selections.
It also adds unprecedented restraints on
signing bonuses for amateur players com-
ing to the major leagues from high school,
college and overseas, perhaps hurting
MLB as it competes with the NFL and
NBA for multisport talent.
If Ive got a great athlete, why am I
going to go to baseball? Im going to focus
on the other sports, said agent Scott
Boras, who has negotiated baseballs high-
est signing bonuses.
Following eight work stoppages from
1972-95, baseball reached its third consec-
utive agreement without an interruption of
play. The agreement was signed three
weeks before the current deal was to expire
Dec. 11, the second straight time the sides
reached a deal early.
Baseball seems to have learned the les-
sons of the 1994-95 strike, which wiped
out the World Series for the rst time in
nine decades.
I think our history is more important
than whats happening in other sports,
said Michael Weiner, who took over from
Donald Fehr as union head last year. It
took a while for the owners to appreciate
that the union is not only here to stay, but
that the union and its members can con-
tribute positively to a discussion about the
game about its economics, about the
nature of the competition, about how its
marketed in every way.
Owners hope the changes will lessen the
difference in spending by high- and low-
revenue teams, much as the payroll luxury
tax that began after the 2002 season.
We feel that competitive balance is cru-
cial to the product that we put on the eld,
said Rob Manfred, MLBs executive vice
president for labor relations. Every time I
took a proposal back to the commissioner,
his bellwether on whether that proposal
was good, bad or indifferent is what it did
for competitive balance.
Baseball will avoid work stoppage
Bud Selig
By Frederic J. Frommer
WASHINGTON Baseballs new labor deal will limit the use
of smokeless tobacco by players, but not ban it during games, as
some public health groups had sought.
Players have agreed not to carry tobacco packages and tins in
their back pockets when fans are permitted in the ballpark, or use
tobacco during pregame or postgame interviews, and at team func-
tions.
But the restrictions fall short of the call by some advocates,
including members of Congress, who argued that a ban on chew-
ing tobacco and dip during games was needed to protect impres-
sionable kids watching on TV.
Our members understand that this is a dangerous product, there
are serious risks associated with using it, union head Michael
Weiner told The Associated Press. Our players felt strongly that
those were appropriate measures to take but that banning its use on
the eld was not appropriate under the circumstances.
The players union also has agreed to join forces with the
Partnership at DrugFree.org and the baseball commissioners ofce
to create a nationwide public service announcement campaign.
Several players have agreed to do public outreach, including Curtis
Granderson, Jeremy Guthrie and C.J. Wilson. In addition, the union
will start a Tobacco Cessation Center for its players, and players
will be offered training on how to give up the habit.
Matthew L. Myers, president of the Campaign for Tobacco-Free
Kids, one of the groups that led the anti-tobacco push, said that
while he would have preferred a ban at games and on camera, the
restrictions represent real progress.
The new Major League Baseball contract takes an historic rst
step toward getting smokeless tobacco out of the ballgame, and
makes signicant progress toward protecting the health of big-
league players and millions of young fans who look up to them, he
said in a statement.
Baseball contract
limits tobacco use
Hannah Branning and another block for a kill
from Katelyn Doherty gave the Bears match
point. A St. Marys passing error put the Bears
into the second round of the Nor Cal tourna-
ment and a step closer to a spot in the state
championship match.
M-A, seeded No. 3, will be on the road
Saturday against No. 2 St. Francis-
Sacramento, which beat North Coast Section
power Foothill-Pleasanton in straight sets.
The match is slated for a 7 p.m. start.
One of our goals was to get further this
year than last year, Wilson said, adding the
Bears lost in the rst round of Nor Cals last
season.
Wilson believes the tight match throughout
made the fth game a little bit easier to bear.
Every game was so intense and so close,
Wilson said. We had a lot of momentum
coming out of the huddle.
M-A (30-6) put itself in position to win by
constantly putting the pressure on the Rams
by winning Games 1 and 3, which forced St.
Marys to constantly battle to stay in the
match.
The one thing working against the Bears,
however, was slow starts in all but one game.
The Bears trailed early in every game but
Game 4, which put that much pressure on
them.
Its denitely not ideal, Wilson said. Its
not how you want to start games.
But like the old saying goes, its not how
you start, but how you nish, and the Bears
did a better job of nishing than the Rams.
The rst game foreshadowed how the entire
match would be play as neither team ever led
by more than a couple points. After falling
behind 2-0 to start the match, the Bears even-
tually tied the game at 7 on a Spindt ace. A kill
from King tied the game again at 9 and a
Spindt kill tied it at 15. That kill jump-started
a mini-run for the Bears, who eventually built
a 22-17 lead.
But the Rams did not go quietly. They went
on a 5-0 run to tie the game at 22, but the
Bears responded by winning the nal three
points and taking Game 1.
It was much the same in Game 2, but the
Bears could never quite get over the hump.
They fell behind 3-0 and never could seem to
catch the Rams. St. Marys eventually built a
20-14, but the Bears had one last run in them,
closing to 21-18, but would get no closer as
the Rams won 25-21.
In Game 3, M-A put everything together to
dominate the Rams. Once again, the Bears fell
behind 2-0 to start the game, before they got
their rhythm. They won nine of the next 11
points to take a 9-4 lead and built their advan-
tage to 22-9 before losing a bit of focus. The
Rams nished the game on a 6-4 run, but it
was not nearly enough to overtake the Bears.
Game 4 saw M-A win the rst point of the
game and there were ve ties and four lead
changes, but the Rams held them off to force
a Game 5.
Spindt led the Bears offense with 18 kills
and was also a force on defense with 17 digs.
King added 12 kills and nine digs, while set-
ter Sarah Collins nished with 37 assists to go
along with 13 digs.
I think everyone knows its a team effort,
Wilson said.
She said the team was surprised to get a
home game in the Nor Cal tournament, con-
sidering section losers are usually sent on the
road. After losing to Palo Alto in the Central
Coast Section championship game Saturday,
Wilson and the Bears geared up for a long
road trip. They were pleasantly surprised
when they received the No. 3 seed in the
Division I tournament.
This was a big way to hit the reset button,
Wilson said. Its hard when we face Paly in
the nals (two straight years). Its nice to
know were not one-hit wonders. Its nice for
people to nally see that.
SPORTS 14
center position for a number of our posses-
sions and Los Altos was doing a really good
job of stepping back and basically double-
teaming her, Burke said. And so we moved
her out to the perimeter and that freed up some
of our other players to go into the center posi-
tion and she was able to hit some really nice
outside shots, gave her a little more freedom
in terms of getting her hand on the ball. When
she has the ball in her hand, she does some
pretty amazing things.
That Midas touch has been evident from the
day Temple took to the pool, starting as a
freshman on the varsity team. And Saturday,
that move to the outside turned out to be just
what the doctor ordered. Temple swam free,
with her ve-goal performance pacing the
Gators.
But it wasnt just her offense on Saturday
(or any other day for that matter), Temple,
along with the rest of the Gators, clamped
down defensively (pun intended).
She actually had a defensive matchup in
the game, Burke said. That brought her out
of her comfort zone a little bit. But, shes such
a versatile player. Essentially, she was asked
to take a defensive role in that game, and she
did a great job of that. And at the same time,
she was able to score ve goals. That demon-
strates her versatility. One game, we can put
her on a defensive matchup and the next game
we can say, Hey, we just want you to counter
attack, we just want you to work on the
perimeter. The only we cant do with her is
say, Hey, we want you to play goalie. She
probably could do it, though.
While Temple shined on Saturday, Burke
was quick to point out that her success is most
denitely a byproduct of the complete team
working together to accomplish a goal. With
Temple moving to the perimeter in that game,
players like Bridgette Harper, Mackenzie
OHolleran and Morgan McCracken were
asked to step in and play in that void. They all
responded by nding the back of the net.
The development of our centers has
been pivotal to the teams success. It has made
our team dramatically more effective on the
offensive end. Shes not going to get anything
on the perimeter if the centers arent doing
their job.
Its the collaboration of all these parts that
have kept the Gators champions.
Pippa has been a great example in and out
of the pool. Shes an outstanding student. She
trained her hardest, she supported her team-
mates. She embodied what our athletes are to
be. And she took care of business in the pool.
No doubt about it.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. California coach
Mike Montgomery watched a bit of Missouris
lopsided victory in the CBE Classic seminals
from his hotel room, long before his own team
punched a ticket to the nals.
What he saw left him lavishing praise on the
Tigers.
That didnt change after the Golden Bears had
a chance to step on the court with them.
Kim English had 19 points to lead six Tigers
in double gures and No. 21 Missouri dominat-
ed the 20th-ranked Golden Bears 92-53 on
Tuesday night, winning the tournament in
impressive fashion.
Missouris good. We knew it was a tough
matchup from the get-go, and theres nothing
we can do about that, Montgomery said. Its a
tough matchup for a lot of people.
Missouri built a 45-26 lead by halftime and
the outcome was never in doubt over the nal 20
minutes, with coach Frank Haith pulling his
starters with a few minutes left in the game.
Jorge Gutierrez scored 11 points to lead Cal
(4-1), but fouled out with 11:12 remaining.
Richard Solomon also fouled out with more
than 7 minutes left and nished with nine
points.
They play with a lot of intensity, and we felt
it, Gutierrez said. Weve never seen it before
not this year. It was pretty hard for us to get
the ball where we wanted it to be.
The Tigers used relentless man-to-man, half-
court pressure to force the guard-oriented
Golden Bears into a plethora of early turnovers,
and the result was a lot of easy points.
Marcus Denmon nished with 18 and was the
tournaments Most Valuable Player. Matt
Pressey had 13 points and Michael Dixon n-
ished with 11 for the Tigers (5-0), who won the
event just a couple hours drive from their cam-
pus in Columbia for the second time in four
appearances.

College athletes who sign with
agents dont just hire sports-loving
lawyers to negotiate pro contracts.
These days, top agents also offer
would-be pros a full roster of col-
leagues who can help land endorse-
ments, manage money, schedule vaca-
tions or even recruit former college
teammates with their own pro poten-
tial.
Such third-party representatives are
exempt from NCAA oversight, and
most of the state and federal laws that
govern sports agents. But after a 2010
college football season dominated by
investigations into alleged improper
contact between players and agents at
multiple schools, the NCAA is poised
to broaden its denition of sports
agent to include anyone who benets
from a college athlete turning pro
or even enrolling at a particular
school.
We wanted to make sure we had
legislation that better reected what
was going on in the real world, said
Rachel Newman Baker, the NCAAs
managing director of enforcement.
What we realized was that because
our denition is very narrow, it was
only capturing those who may be
negotiating with professional teams.
There are a lot of other third-party
representatives involved who are put-
ting our student-athletes eligibility at
risk in much the same way as any of-
cial registered agent could.
The proposal has been approved by
the NCAA Division I Amateurism
Cabinet as well as its Leadership
Council. Its expected to receive nal
approval in January from the associa-
tions Division I Board of Directors,
an 18-member panel of college chan-
cellors and presidents.
The new denition of agent would
cover anyone who directly or indi-
rectly represents or attempts to repre-
sent an individual for purposes of
marketing his or her athletics ability
or reputation for nancial gain or
seeks to obtain any type of nancial
gain or benet from securing a
prospective student-athletes enroll-
ment at an educational institution.
Advisers, brand managers and
anyone who is employed or associat-
ed with such persons also fall under
the expanded denition.
The NCAA also expects to create a
national registration system that
would allow schools, state regulators
and athletes to verify an agents qual-
ications and legal status through a
single database. Unregistered agents
would be prevented from meeting
prospective clients at the annual,
school-sponsored agent days com-
mon among major college programs.
The looming changes were among
the topics at an NCAA-sponsored
meeting in Washington last week that
brought together federal lawmakers
and state regulators with representa-
tives of pro sports leagues as well as
agents themselves.

means its the fans who will feel cheated the
most.
LSU, Alabama and Arkansas all will have
played each other by the time next weekend
rolls around and its possible that none of
them will be the SEC champion when the
game ends on Dec. 3.
Given the results of that little round-robin
tournament so far, only fans of tractor pulls
will be rooting to see any two of those three
reprise those games in January.
LSU slogged past Alabama 9-6 in overtime
and the Crimson Tide pounded Arkansas 38-
14.
In the past, the waiting period between the
end of the regular season and the champi-
onship game has always worked in the BCS
favor. Tempers cool as weeks pass. The out-
rageous lobbying and occasionally over-the-
top remarks coaches make about the selec-
tion process recede into the background.
Among fans, a kind of fatigue sets in.
Arguing over whether either or both teams
are deserving gives way to acceptance. Its
like walking around with a rock in your shoe.
What makes this season even more aggra-
vating is that the rankings are just about
right. Arkansas ventures into Baton Rouge on
Friday and if the Razorbacks pull off an
upset and go on to beat SEC East entrant
Georgia in the conference championship,
they will have earned the trip to New
Orleans. There are 14 one-loss teams in the
mix at the moment, but few would deny that
LSU even if the Tigers lose to Arkansas
and Alabama would be the most deserving
of the lot. The problem is that all three would
have aws we might be willing to overlook if
they had to clear a path to that championship
game on the eld its called a playoff
instead of relying on computer operators and
best guesses to deposit them there. Now,
theres virtually no chance the winner gets
the benet of the doubt from the majority of
fans.
All we know for certain is that the guys in
charge at the BCS dont mind seeing their
brand being kicked around like a rusty can
everywhere from the Oval Ofce down to the
corner tavern. It hardly matters to them if the
tweaks require additional tweaking, or if they
throw out a stinker in the showcase game
now and then. We keep hearing how resilient
college football is, but its hard to remember
a worse couple of years for the game.
Southern California isnt bowl eligible
because of the excesses of the Reggie Bush
era and Miami didnt even wait for an invita-
tion to turn down because of the ongoing
investigation into a rogue boosters largesse.
Ohio State, on the other hand, isnt likely to
say no, despite standing on the threshold of
NCAA double-secret probation, and probably
neither will Penn State, embroiled in a child
sex-abuse scandal that makes the usual trans-
gressions in the sport barely worth mention-
ing.
What all those scandals have in common
is, at the very least, the whiff of corruption,
not to mention what the NCAA terms a lack
of institutional control. So how tting is that
the BCS, which has twisted itself into a pret-
zel countless times to hang onto the postsea-
son franchise and been just transparent
enough to stay ahead of lawsuits and the
Congress, could nally get called out by the
fans for doing exactly what it was created to
do?
Its shaping up to be a bowl season that
will be memorable for all the wrong reasons.
Cant wait to see how the BCS tries to tweak
its way out of this one.

and spread teams than teams that load the box
on us. As far as gameplanning, I think our
coaches put us in good positions knowing
what other teams are doing with the spread
and how were going to attack it. I think weve
been very successful against it.
It all comes down to leadership and our
sophomore leaders did it by example,
Tulloch said, adding that his defense
answered the call after a tough showing by
hitting the video tape and breaking down what
went wrong. In the season-opening loss to
Fresno, Tulloch said there were guys in the
lm room that same night all the way until
four in the morning.
When you have sophomores who are vet-
erans and leaders and do it by example, you
manage through the bumps in the road
because they know what it takes and they
show the rest of the defense how to do it,
Tulloch said.
CSM will show the rest of the county how
its done when the Bothman Bulldog Bowl
hits the air waves (on high denition no less)
this Saturday on KCSM-60 at 8:30 p.m.
KCSM is must carry on all area systems.
Its great, Tulloch said. Its a honor for
our guys to be bowl eligible. Its something
they deserved and they earned. Its a great
opportunity for them to show what kind of
team we are on a big stage, on TV, in front of
lots of recruiters. It just gives them an oppor-
tunity to showcase their abilities.
Speaking of recruiting, the CSM football
season rolls on with the transfer period
already in full swing. Tulloch said the staff
met with all CSM sophomores recently to
educate them on the process. Highlight and
game lms are being put together now and
mid-year transfers will be making their rst
ofcial visits after the Thanksgiving break.
Outside of football and in the classroom,
the focus is on making sure all those who
want to transfer can academically.
We have study hall every day, Tulloch
said. We have a lot of really good academic-
support programs that make all the difference
in the world for these guys.
On the recruiting front, Tulloch said CSMs
Top 100 is up and running.
Whats good is we have a good reputa-
tion, he said. Last year, we had six kids in
the Pac-10. They see the guys being prepared,
developed and moved on. And they go, OK,
this is not what most people might think about
a junior college. This is the real deal.

that a league champion might trump a program
that didnt even win its own division in the SEC
West.
The BCS formula consists of three parts each
weighed equally: The Coaches Poll, Harris Poll
and the average of six computer rankings.
Stanford is only guaranteed a BCS bowl berth if
it nishes in the top four. The top two teams will
play for the BCS national title.
While his players continued to stay away from
the debate, Shaw said he felt compelled to stick
up for his program.
Theres a lot of football to be played, a lot of
things are going to shake themselves out. As we
have all year, were going to let other people
worry about that stuff, Shaw said. But I felt its
to a point where I had to say something cause I
dont understand it. Most people I talked to dont
understand it, the people who are explaining it
dont understand it. The experts have their dis-
agreements. So I just wanted to lay that out
there.
Do with it what you want.

Some are holding potluck dinners instead of
springing for the entire feast. Others are stay-
ing home rather than ying. And a few are
skipping the turkey altogether.
On this the fourth Thanksgiving since the
economy sank, prices for everything from air-
line ights to groceries are going up, and some
Americans are scaling back. Yet in many
households, the occasion is too important to
skimp on. Said one mother: I dont have
much to give, but Ill be cooking, and the door
will be open.
Thanksgiving airfares are up 20 percent this
year, and the average price of a gallon of gas
has risen almost 20 percent, according to trav-
el tracker AAA. Rail travelers were also
affected, with fares on most one-way Amtrak
tickets up 2 to 5 percent.
Still, about 42.5 million people are expected
to travel, the highest number since the start of
the recession.
But even those who choose to stay home
and cook for themselves will probably
spend more. A 16-pound turkey and all the
trimmings will cost an average of $49.20, a
13 percent jump from last year, or about
$5.73 more, according to the American
Farm Bureau Federation, which says gro-
cers have raised prices to keep pace with
higher-priced commodities.
In Pawtucket, R.I., Jackie Galinis was
among those looking for help to put a proper
meal on the table. She stopped at a communi-
ty center this week seeking a donated food
basket. But by the time she arrived, all 300
turkeys had been claimed.
So Galinis, an unemployed retail worker,
will make do with whats in her apartment.
Well have to eat whatever Ive got, so Im
thinking chicken, she said.
Then her eyes lit up. Actually, I think Ive
got red meat in the freezer, some corned beef.
We could do a boiled dinner.
Galinis has another reason to clear out her
apartments freezer: Her landlord is in the
process of evicting her and her 3-year-old son.
The unemployment rate in Pawtucket, a city
struggling with the loss of manufacturing jobs,
is 12.1 percent, well above the national aver-
age.
Carole Goldsmith of Fresno, Calif., decided
she didnt need to have a feast, even if she
could still afford it.
Goldsmith, an administrator at a communi-
ty college in Coalinga, Calif., said she typical-
ly hosts an over-the-top meal for friends and
family. This year, she canceled the meal and
donated a dozen turkeys to two homeless shel-
ters. She plans to spend Thursday volunteer-
ing before holding a small celebration Friday
with soup, bread and lots of gratitude.

IOWA CITY, Iowa A ruthless busi-
nessman who built one of the nations
largest egg production operations from
scratch even as he racked up environ-
mental and labor violations is getting
out of the business in disgrace after one
scandal was too much to overcome: a
nationwide salmonella outbreak caused
by his products.
Austin Jack DeCoster and his son,
Peter, said in a statement they have
given up control of egg operations in
Iowa, Maine and Ohio, including the
farms that produced salmonella-tainted
eggs that sickened an estimated 1,900
people and led to a recall of 550 million
eggs. Federal inspectors later discov-
ered filthy conditions at the farms,
including dead rodents and towers of
manure.
Steve Boomsma, chief operating of-
cer for Centrum Valley Farms in Alden,
Iowa, said in a telephone interview
Monday his rm had
signed a nine-year
lease with an option
to purchase six
DeCoster operations
in Iowa, including
the Wright County
Egg farms responsi-
ble for the outbreak.
A division of
Mi nnesot a- based
Land O Lakes
announced earlier this month it is taking
over DeCosters Maine egg farms. And
Boomsma said a deal could be
announced this week involving Iowa
investors takeover of DeCosters egg
operations in Ohio.
The salmonella outbreak caused big
retailers like Wal-Mart to drop DeCoster
products, a Congressional hearing
where DeCoster struggled to defend his
record, and a bitter legal feud with
DeCosters longtime top associate, John
Glessner, in which each is accusing the
other of mismanagement. The
DeCosters recently reached financial
settlements with about 40 people who
were sickened during the outbreak, and
attorneys involved in the litigation say
they are seeking compensation for more
than 100 others.
While we are committed to working
to address outstanding issues related to
the outbreak, it is important to note we
no longer operate any of the farms
involved and are no longer in the busi-
ness of egg production, the DeCoster
family said in a statement sent to The
Associated Press.
Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad, a
Republican who has often been critical
of DeCosters tactics, welcomed the
news.
The DeCosters should have been out
of business a long time ago. This is
good news for the entire state of Iowa,
he said. The DeCosters have been con-
sistent and habitual violators who have
given Iowa egg producers a bad name.
Iowa produces more eggs than any
other state.

NEW ORLEANS As Thanksgiving
nears, consumers with a taste for oyster
soup and oyster dressing with their holiday
meals are discovering the delectable shell-
fish are still in shorter supply and more
expensive than before last years Gulf oil
spill. But most dont seem to mind.
Its understandable, said New Orleans
resident Simon Templer, who spent close to
$20 for two pints of shucked oyster meat for
a cream-based oyster and artichoke soup he
plans to prepare for Thanksgiving. The
oyster industry is still hurting, so Im will-
ing to spend more if I have to.
Mike Voisin, owner of an oyster process-
ing and sales business southwest of New
Orleans, said Gulf oyster production is at
the lowest level its been in decades. Oyster
harvesters took a bashing last year during
the Gulf oil spill when much of the crop was
killed off in coastal waters of Louisiana,
Mississippi and Alabama. Now the oyster
crop, which needs brackish water to thrive,
is even more depressed because of freshwa-
ter intrusion from Mississippi River flood-
ing this summer.
This will be our lowest oyster year in a
very long time, probably since the late
80s, Voisin said.
The cut in oyster production has driven
prices up roughly 10 percent from last year,
Voisin said. Last year the price for a pint of
shucked oyster meat was in the $8 range,
and this year the price is closer to $10, he
said. Before the oil spill, a pint of oysters
was as little as $6 or $7, he said.
The price is a little high, but its not like
its for milk or eggs or something I need
every day, Templer said. Its for oysters,
and its Thanksgiving.
Debra Martin, of Westwego, La., said her
oyster and cornbread stuffing is a
Thanksgiving standard.
Everyone looks forward to my dressing,
she said. Im going to have it no matter the
cost.
Still, some say they just cant afford oys-
ters this year.
Theyre too high, said Bernadette
Williams, of Westwego, La., who this year is
nixing her breadcrumb-based oyster dress-
ing from the Thanksgiving menu. Im on a
fixed income, and I have to cook for more
than 20 people. I made it last year, but Im
going to have to skip it this year.
Higher prices dont seem to be curbing
restaurants from including oysters on their
holiday menus.
Bob Mahoney, owner of Mary Mahoneys
restaurant in Biloxi, Miss., said that even
though hes paying a little more for oysters,
he will be keeping his popular oyster soup
on the menu this Thanksgiving.
Well have the oyster soup, the seafood
gumbo, all of it, said Mahoney, who
already has more than 200 reservations for
Thanksgiving day.
Tommy Cvitanovich said his New Orleans
restaurant, Dragos, will be serving up its
famous charbroiled oysters free of charge to
police, firefighters and emergency workers
from a downtown New Orleans parking lot
Thanksgiving day. Its a tradition launched
the first Thanksgiving after Hurricane
Katrina struck the Gulf Coast in 2005, and
Cvitanovich said he wont stop because of
higher oyster prices.
Its something we like to do, that I think
is important to do, as a thank you to the
emergency workers in our community,
Cvitanovich said. I like to
bring my kids so they can be
reminded that Thanksgiving is
about more than having a day
off school.
Cvitanovich said he went as
long as he could after the oil
spill without raising prices on
oysters served at his restaurant
which are prepared either
raw or charbroiled but he
had to raise prices in January
by 55 cents per dozen.
Thats the first time I had
to raise my oyster prices in more than two
years, but I dont think Ill have to do it
again anytime soon, Cvitanovich said. The
industry is challenged and facing an uphill
climb, but oysters are resilient animals, and
they will come back.
Voisin said Gulf Coast states typically pro-
duce some 500 million pounds of the coun-
trys 750 million pounds of in-shell oysters
annually, and roughly half of all Gulf Coast
oysters come from Louisiana. After a dip in
production following Hurricanes Katrina and
Rita in 2005, the Gulf Coast oyster crop had
almost rebounded when the BP oil spill
sliced the harvest in half in 2010, Voisin said.
This year, freshwater from the Mississippi
River flooding cut Louisiana production to
about 35 percent, Voisin said. In Mississippi,
the freshwater wiped the crop out entirely,
said Shelly Becker, a spokeswoman for the
Mississippi Department of Marine
Resources. Becker said the season opened on
Oct. 24 but quickly closed on Oct. 29
because there was nothing to harvest.
Theres wasnt enough salinity, and the oys-
ters werent good enough.
Though Alabama is among the smaller of
the Gulf Coast oyster producers, it sits far-
ther from the mouth of the Mississippi River
and wasnt as affected by freshwater intru-
sion.
Avery Bates, a longtime oyster harvester
in Bayou La Batre, Ala., who also serves as
vice president of the Organized Seafood
Association of Alabama, said the states
oyster harvest appears to be healthy and rel-
atively plentiful this year.
Theyre salty, and theyre good, Bates
said.
One of the biggest challenges in Alabama
and elsewhere along the Gulf Coast remains
the seafood industrys reputation nationally,
Bates said.
Ive never seen any storm hit us like BP
did, Bates said. It got our reputation.
People lost their clientele and closed. BP
hurt our reputation so bad.
Oysters pricey but still heading to Thanksgiving
Higher prices dont seem to be curbing restaurants from including oysters on their holiday

I think everybody is OK with it, she said.
They understand. Everybody is in a different
place than they were a year ago.
In suburban Chicago, the Oak Park River
Forest Food Pantry got rid of turkey altogeth-
er. Last year, the pantry had a lottery in
October to distribute 600 turkeys between
almost 1,500 families.
The pantrys management has decided to
give all of its families a choice between other
kinds of meat ground turkey, sliced chick-
en, sh sticks and hamburger patties along
with the other trappings of a Thanksgiving
feast. The decision will save $16,000, money
that can go to feeding the hungry for the rest
of the year.
Do we give turkeys and hams to half of the
people or do we give them to none of them
and put that money back in the general food
budget? said the pantrys executive director,
Kathy Russell.
The Greater Chicago Food Depository is
paying more for many basic items. Executive
Director Kate Maehr said she recently ordered
peanut butter that cost 38 percent more than
just six months ago. And the increase comes
at a bad time, when the economy has forced
more families to resort to food pantries, she
said.
Andrew Thomas, a mailroom worker for a
Washington, D.C., law rm, had hoped to take
his two children to see his grandmother in
North Carolina. But with Christmas around
the corner, Thomas concluded he needed to
save money.
Were just going to eat real good and stay
home for this year, he said.
But George Gorham and his anci, Patricia
Horner, werent deterred. They ew across the
county to visit Gorhams son at North
Carolinas Fort Bragg.
They used frequent-ier miles and planned
to visit tourist attractions in the nations capi-
tal along the way. Horner said they still would
have made the trip without the miles, but it
would have been more painful.
Thanksgiving travelers were also at the
mercy of the weather. Forecasters warned of
rain and scattered thunderstorms in much of
the Northeast, with a mixture of snow and
freezing rain expected in upstate New York
and northern New England. Mountainous
areas could see 4 to 8 inches of snow.
In Juneau, Alaska, the Rev. George Silides
and his wife will bring turkey to a church
potluck, but not much more. Like millions of
others, Silides said, the couple was feeling
the economic pinch.
Juneau, Alaskas capital, is an expensive
place to live. The only way in or out is by air
or boat. Silides wife now works as an English
teacher to support their family of six.
In previous years, Stacy Hansen would
either host a large Thanksgiving meal or y
from her Florida home to be with family in
Minnesota. Not this year.
Hansen and her teenage son are staying
home in Tarpon Springs, Fla., near Tampa.
They picked out a 10-pound turkey and two
frozen, buy-one-get-one-free pies at the
supermarket. She cant afford to y herself
and her son north, and her two grown children
cant afford to y back to Florida.
Its going to be a quiet Thanksgiving, she
said. Were going to be thankful for what we
do have.
Galinis plans a similar holiday using what-
ever she can nd.
Even if I only had two nickels to rub
together, Id do something, she said. I dont
have much to give, but Ill be cooking and the
door will be open.

business based on his passion for tea. In July,
the two opened Rue Du Th, meaning the
avenue or street of tea in French. Their phi-
losophy is to bring communities together
through a comfortable, casual and friendly
environment for all people to enjoy an every-
day pot of tea. They value community and
want people to feel at ease with tea, they said.
Drinking tea is a form of spiritual relax-
ation, Reeves, an independent contractor at
Cisco, said. Tea has the same amount of caf-
feine as coffee except it has a smoother deliv-
ery and additional health benets. Though tea
does not have as large of a culture as coffee, it
is continuously growing and expanding
because there are so many unique avors that
t all types of people.
Rue Du Th carries more than 60 varieties
from Leland Tea Company. The shops loose
leaf tea bar includes categories of black, rooi-
bos, pu-erh, green, herbal, mate, white,
oolong and organic. Their signature house tea
is Paris, which contains black tea, red tea
rooibos, bergamot tea and chunks of pears and
caramel. Customers are encouraged to open
canisters to smell, feel and experience the tea
then mix, match and blend the teas that best
ts their liking.
Otero considers himself a master blender in
blending herbs, spices, dried fruits and ow-
ers into his tea. He uses his inspiration of cre-
ating, cooking and blending avors and spices
from his background of working in restau-
rants.
I have created some sort of niche where
people can enjoy a good cup and not feel
intimidated, Otero said. I want to enhance
peoples experience by putting out a positive
energy when creating custom blends of tea.
People have this natural sense of peace and
constant ow when experiencing tea and that
is beautiful.
Chocolatier Mindy Fong of Jade Chocolates
blends tea into her chocolate by using Leland
Teas bogart black tea, munbai chai tea and
jasmine tea. Fong focuses on four types of
dark and milk chocolate: chocolate bars, truf-
es, panned products of chocolate covered
fruit and nuts, and mango orchids half-dipped
in chocolate on bamboo sticks. She also began
a line of hot chocolates infused with jasmine
tea, white tea and lavender.
My theory is that chocolate goes with any-
thing, Fong said. Its like the color black and
white mixed with any color palette. Chocolate
is sweet, savory and compliments almost any-
thing.
Teas are served in small, medium and large
loose leaf tea pots to be steeped and strained.
Chocolates, pastries, sandwiches and salads
are served on a tiered platter. In addition, fresh
goods such as pastries, cookies, scones, short-
bread, macaroon and madeleines are sold at
their bakery.
Two weeks ago, the tea room hosted an
adoption event for the San Francisco Bay Area
organization, Rocket Dog Rescue. Seven
adoptions successfully took place that day.
Liz Smith, owner of Trick Dog Treats in San
Francisco, sold all natural serenitea treats for
pups containing a blend of chamomile, pep-
permint, blueberries and sunower seed but-
ter.
The tea shop can accommodate 25 to 30
seated and 50 standing customers with no
additional fees of a long stay. It welcomes pri-
vate parties celebrating birthdays, anniver-
saries, bridal showers, baby showers, fondue
parties and more.
What makes a great tea preparation is the
total experience, Reeves said. The best tea is
a tea that is high quality, affordable and has a
lot of character. Its the idea of bringing every-
one together to enjoy the company of the peo-
ple you care about.

checks averaging about $300. For most
of the long-term unemployed, that is
their main source of income.
Theres an awful lot of uncertainty
ahead, said Michael Hanson, senior
U.S. economist at Bank of America
Merrill Lynch.
Both changes would leave Americans
with an estimated $165 billion less to
spend. The Federal Reserve expects the
economy to grow only 2.7 percent next
year, and economists say the expiration
of the two programs could reduce
growth by a full percentage point.
The government said Tuesday that
the economy grew at a 2 percent rate in
July, August and September, down from
earlier estimates of 2.5 percent.
To bring unemployment down signif-
icantly, the economy has to grow more
than twice as fast as it grew this sum-
mer.
Congress could extend the tax cut and
unemployment benefits when it returns
from Thanksgiving recess next week.
But the same partisan philosophical dif-
ferences that sank the supercommittee
could complicate the debate.
At the same time, Congress may be
unwilling to force what is essentially a
tax increase on tens of millions of
Americans just as an election year
begins.
Both measures were part of a deal
struck in December 2010 by President
Barack Obama and Republicans in
Congress.
The cut applies to the tax that pays
for Social Security. The tax applies to
the first $106,800 a person makes in a
year. The deal lowered the rate paid by
individuals to 4.2 percent from 6.2 per-
cent for this year. Companies also pay a
6.2 rate on their payroll.
Some Republicans have indicated
they could support extending the tax
cut, but there would almost certainly be
a fight over how to pay for it. Without
spending cuts or other tax increases,
renewing the Social Security tax cut
would swell the deficit.
Obama, as part of his jobs bill in
September, Obama proposed lowering
the rate further, to 3.1 percent, and cut-
ting the employer portion to 3.1 percent
up to the first $5 million on their pay-
rolls.
Cuts at that level would pump almost
$250 billion more into the economy
compared with last year, when individ-
uals and employers both paid the 6.2
percent rate.
Obama, speaking Tuesday in New
Hampshire, urged Republicans to con-
tinue the tax break.
Dont be a Grinch, the president
said. Dont vote to raise taxes on
working Americans during the holi-
days.
On Monday, White House press sec-
retary Jay Carney suggested that renew-
ing or deepening the tax cut could be
paid for by raising taxes on the wealthy.
Republicans have refused to consider
doing so.
Most states provide up to 26 weeks of
unemployment benefits. The deal
extended benefits to up to 99 weeks in
states with the highest unemployment
rates.
Unless that is renewed, almost 2.2
million people out of work will lose
benefits by the first week in February.
About 6 million people would lose
weekly benefits by the end of the year.
Just the uncertainty of not knowing
what Congress will do could cause
businesses to hold back on hiring and
investment, and therefore drag down
economic growth, Hanson said.
Most economists would like to see
lower budget deficits, but most would
like the government to reduce the
deficit gradually, to avoid hurting the
weak economy. And they would all pre-
fer robust economic growth to solve the
problem.
The supercommittees failure triggers
$1 trillion in automatic cuts in govern-
ment spending beginning in 2013.
Congress could undo them, but then
credit rating agencies might downgrade
the governments long-term debt, as
Standard & Poors did in August.
An even bigger hurdle looms at the
end of 2012. Thats when the tax cuts
passed during the Bush administration
are set to expire. Losing those tax cuts
would cost taxpayers up to an addition-
al $4 trillion over 10 years.
Combined, all those factors would
reduce growth in 2013 by between 1.5
and 3.5 percentage points, Douglas
Elmendorf, director of the
Congressional Budget Office, estimated
last week.

AUTOBODY & PAINT
Belmont adopted a progressive rate
structure that awards residents for
recycling by charging them far less
than it actually costs Recology to pick
up the smaller 32- and- 20 gallon cans.
Councilman Warren Lieberman
blames the council itself for adopting a
rate structure that is too progressive
while Vice Mayor Dave Warden said
the council adopted the current rate
structure based on bad advice from a
consultant.
The council had three options to
choose from last night to generate rev-
enue Recology said it lost this year due
to migration.
But none of the options sat well with
the whole council. Only councilmem-
bers Christine Wozniak and David
Braunstein were prepared to approve a
rate increase last night, in the 15.3 per-
cent range, that also included dipping
into a solid waste fund reserve or
charging residents with smaller cans a
greater percentage of the increase. The
reserve is set aside to payoff Allied
Waste money owed under an old con-
tract that must be paid by September
2012. Allied contends Belmont owes it
about $1.1 million.
Belmont has a $5.9 million contract
for Recology in the current year but its
rate structure only generated about
$5.1 million in revenue. The about
$730,000 shortfall is lost revenue from
residents migrating to smaller cans and
paying lower rates.
Currently, Belmont residents with
20-gallon cans pay about $15.17 a
month compared to $89.48 for resi-
dents with 96-gallon cans.
The cost for Recology to pick up the
cans, however, is the same regardless
of the size of the can.
Lieberman said the difference in
rates was too great.
The whole rate structure is goofy. It
is so far off, Lieberman said.
Lieberman said none of the propos-
als the council faced last night were
suitable.
Warden agreed.
What we need is a fourth option,
Warden said via telephone from
England.
Warden and Wozniak want to see
savings through significant service
reductions, including skipping pickups.
Lieberman did come up with a fourth
proposal last night with his own num-
bers and made a motion but the council
rejected it.
Recology General Manager Mario
Puccinelli told the council last night
the company would be willing to grant
the city an extension to raise the rates,
although it still must be negotiated
with the city manager.
Council chambers were packed last
night with people eager to speak on the
matter. The council heard from 14
members of the public, 12 of them urg-
ing the council to reject the rate
increase.
Belmont resident Warren Gibson,
however, said he would be willing to
pay more for his 20-gallon can.
I have a 20-gallon can, he said.
Raise my rates.

GARBAGE
Bridgeforth ed before his 1969 sen-
tencing. He turned himself in to authori-
ties earlier this month after spending 35
years married and raising a family in
Michigan.
He could face a maximum of 15 years
in prison at his Feb. 3 sentencing.
Bridgeforths lawyer Paul Harris said
Tuesday that his client, who is currently
free on $25,000 bail, feels a sense of
relief.
He feels calm, hes done the right
thing, Harris said. Hes getting all
kinds of support here and in Michigan.
But, hes also worried about what will
happen next.
San Mateo County Chief Deputy
District Attorney Karen Guidotti said
Bridgeforth could face a stiff sentence
due to the nature of the crime and the
time span prior to conviction.
Hes going to have to face the conse-
quences of what he did 42 years ago,
Guidotti said. This was a particularly
heinous crime. It cant go unnoticed.
During the shootout, gunfire by
Bridgeforth hit a squad car but not of-
cers, who shot him in the foot prior to his
arrest with two other men, authorities
said.
Bridgeforth fled before sentencing
because he was given bad advice that he
could spend the rest of his life in prison,
Harris said.
It was incredibly reckless, stupid and
dangerous, Bridgeforth said. He called
the incident an aberration in my life.
While on the run, Bridgeforth changed
his name to Cole Jordan and lived in
New York, Senegal, Los Angeles and
Atlanta.
After he got married, Bridgeforth
resettled in Michigan and worked odd
jobs while earning a bachelors degree at
Wayne State University. In 1998, he
became a counselor at Washtenaw
Community College in Ann Arbor after
getting his masters degree ve years
earlier.
I was better at that than anything Id
ever done, Bridgeforth said. I was
given a chance at Washtenaw to rewrite
my life, and I worked hard.
His wife also earned two masters
degrees and taught in high school and
college as they raised two sons.
At sentencing, Harris said, he will
present testimonials from parents of stu-
dents Bridgeforth helped in Michigan
and letters of support from two college
presidents.
Bridgeforth also was implicated in a
deadly 1971 San Francisco police sta-
tion attack that was linked to the Black
Liberation Army, an offshoot of the
Black Panthers.
In that case, Bridgeforth had been
accused of serving as the getaway driver
in the attack by militants that killed Sgt.
John Young. State prosecutors recently
dropped those charges.
Bridgeforth has maintained he was not
in the group.

Bombs defused
near Philippine
09 massacre site
By Jim Gomez
MANILA, Philippines Authorities in the restive southern
Philippines defused ve roadside bombs near the site of a 2009
massacre Wednesday, the day relatives of the 57 victims
marked the second anniversary of the killings.
No casualties were reported but tensions were running high.
About 200 policemen were deployed to secure the massacre
site and the immediate vicinity with dozens of people attend-
ing the commemoration ceremonies.
Provincial Gov. Esmael Mangudadatu, whose relatives were
among the dead, canceled a visit to the massacre site in
Ampatuan township in Maguindanao province, saying, Were
taking no chance.
I was about to go there but the provincial director advised
me to refrain from going to the site, Mangudadatu said. He
survived an August bomb attack that killed two people in the
southern Philippines, where shooting incidents and bomb
explosions are common.
According to a military report, two of the homemade bombs
were made of 81 mm mortar shells and two-way radios to
remotely detonate them. They were found along the national
highway near a camp of Muslim rebels.
It wasnt clear who was responsible for planting the explo-
sives, but about 100 of the 197 people charged in the political-
ly motivated 2009 killings are still at large.
Andal Ampatuan Sr., patriarch of a powerful Maguindanao
clan and former governor of an autonomous Muslim region, is
among nearly 100 suspects being tried on murder charges in
the massacre, together with his sons and other relatives.
Gunmen allegedly led by former town mayor Andal
Ampatuan Jr. stopped members of the Mangudadatu clan, the
Ampatuans political rivals, as they traveled to led for candi-
