PRESIDENT OBAMA PRAISES SACRIFICE
Family Owned & Operated

As a Burlingame man shot at a
Halloween party in San Francisco
recovers from his severe injuries,
his friends and family are mobiliz-
ing to raise thousands of dollars for
his ongoing care and ensure the
court hearings for his alleged
attacker are well-stocked with those
who came so close to losing him.
Benjamin Pessah, 21, is hospital-
ized and improving every day but
the medical bills continue racking
up and the emotional scars are far
from healed.
Were asking
for a lot of
prayers, said
Pessahs cousin,
Alex.
Alex Pessah
created a
fundraising site
to collect dona-
tions for his
medical care
and, as of Friday afternoon, had
already amassed more than
$18,000. But with Ben Pessah in a
medically induced coma and
reduced oxygen levels not to men-
tion lots of rehabilitation eventually,
cousin Jason Sutherland said the
bills easily surpass that amount.
Pessah has been hospitalized
since the Oct. 28 shooting at Fort
Mason that reportedly happened
after a San Leandro man grabbed
his girlfriend inappropriately. Police
reported the man, Hun Saelee, 30,
tried to start a ght before grabbing
a gun out of his car trunk and shoot-
ing Pessah in the head as he ran
away with 26-year-old Judiana Lau.
Police arrested Saelee at home
wearing the same camouage-style
clothing as the night before and
with a handgun possibly used in the
shooting on the oorboard of his
car. He is charged with attempted
murder and Lau is charged with
being an accessory after the fact.
Police remain looking for wit-
nesses or video of the incident.
Meanwhile, Pessahs family and
friends are making a point to attend
each court hearing en masse. One
appearance drew 130 people,
Sutherland said.
I personally think its critical to
not only let the judge know but also
the assailants that this is not to be
taken lightly, Sutherland said.
Alex Pessah agreed.
We want to show the judge and
jury that he didnt just affect one
person. He affected hundreds,
Pessah said.

PANTHERS TAKE THE PAW

A man injured after a vehicle
plowed into his car on Highway
101, killing a passenger and injuring
several others, is suing that motorist,
the state and another driver whose
blown tire allegedly began the fatal
string of circumstances.
Billy Heard, of Los Angeles, led
the complaint in San Mateo County
Superior Court Nov. 8 alleging neg-
ligence and keeping dangerous con-
dition of public property. The suit
names Dennis Leffew Jr., the driver
who hit Heards vehicle, the state
Department of Transportation and
driver Leonardo Lazo and Mauricio
Centeno, who owned the Chevrolet
Tahoe which lost the tire.
The suit comes a year after the
Nov. 6, 2011 collision that killed 19-
year-old Andrel Norcel Gaines and
left Leffew with head injuries.
Leffew was ultimately sentenced to
time served for misdemeanor driv-
ing under the inuence. Prosecutors
originally charged Leffew with
gross vehicular manslaughter but
settled the case after an accident
reconstruction specialist hired by
his defense found that even a sober
driver could not have avoided the

Summer was a life-changing time
for Burlingame High School seniors
Gina May and Monica Becker.
During their junior year, they
learned about a company called
Walking Tree Travel that specializes
in taking high school students on
international trips that are off the
beaten path. The girls decided the
trip was one they couldnt pass up.
Over 10 days this summer, the girls
traveled to Costa Rica, completed
about 30 hours of community serv-
ice, stayed for days with a host fam-
ily in a village and came back with a
different outlook on life.
What we really wanted to do was
to encourage students to really get
out of their comfort zone, said

Nation pays tribute to
sacrices of veterans
LOS ANGELES From sea to shin-
ing sea, the nation paid tribute to its
members of the armed services Sunday,
both with somber traditions such as a
Virginia wreath-laying ceremony attend-
ed by President Barack Obama to honor
those who didnt make it back from
active duty, and more lighthearted perks
including red-carpet treatment at Las
Vegas casinos for those who did.
In California, a long legal case drew to
a close as a war memorial cross that had
been deemed unconstitutional was being
resurrected Sunday in the Mojave desert,
capping a landmark case for veterans
ghting similar battles on public lands.
Sunday marked the ofcial commem-
oration of Veterans Day, but the federal
holiday will be observed Monday.
President Barack Obama laid the
wreath at the Tomb of the Unknowns at
Arlington Memorial Cemetery in
Virginia and noted that this is the rst
Veterans Day in a decade with no
American troops in Iraq, and that a
decade of war in Afghanistan is coming
to a close.
In a speech at the Memorial
Amphitheater, he said America will
never forget the sacrice made by its
veterans and their families.
No ceremony or parade, no hug or
handshake is enough to truly honor that
service, the president said, adding that
the country must commit every day to
serving you as well as youve served us.
He spoke of the Sept. 11 generation,
who stepped forward when the Towers
fell, and in the years since have stepped
into history, writing one of the greatest
chapters in military service our country
has ever known.
Over the next few years, he said, more
than 1 million service members will
make the transition to civilian life. As
they come home, it falls to us, their fel-
low citizens, to be there for them and
their families, not just now but always.
Later, the president and his wife, rst
lady Michelle Obama, and Vice
President Joe Biden and his wife, Jill,
greeted families in the cemeterys
Section 60, home to graves of service
members killed in Afghanistan and Iraq.
In California, a war memorial cross
that once stood on a rocky hilltop in a
national park before being deemed
unconstitutional and ordered removed
was being resurrected in the stunningly
stark Mojave desert, marking the end of
a longstanding legal dispute that had
become entangled in patriotism and reli-
gion.
Henry Sandoz, who cared for the orig-
inal cross as part of a promise to a dying
World War I veteran, will rededicate a
new, 7-foot steel cross on the same hill-
top. The site is now in private hands as
part of a land swap with the National
Park Service that ended the legal battle.
Judges and lawyers may have played
their roles, but it was the veterans who
earned this memorial, and it is for them
it rises once more, said attorney Hiram
Sasser of the Texas-based Liberty
Institute, which represented veterans in
the legal ght.
The settlement approved by a federal
judge in April permitted the Park
Service to turn over the acre of land
known as Sunrise Rock to a Veteran of
Foreign Wars post in Barstow and the
Veterans Home of California-Barstow in
exchange for ve acres of donated prop-
erty elsewhere in the 1.6 million acre
preserve, about a four-hour drive east of
Los Angeles.
The donated land was owned by
Sandoz and his wife, Wanda, of Yucca
Valley.
Sandoz has cared for the memorial as
a promise to World War I veteran Riley
Bembry, who with other shell-shocked
vets went to the desert to help heal and
erected a wooden cross on Sunrise Rock
in 1934.
It was later replaced with a cross made
of steel pipes.
Then Sunrise Rock became part of the
Mojave National Preserve in 1994, put-
ting the Christian symbol on public land.
The American Civil Liberties Union
led a lawsuit in 2001 on behalf of a
retired Park Service employee who
argued the cross was unconstitutional on
government property because of the sep-
aration of church and state, and federal
courts ordered it removed.

he impression that 195 acres of dry
land (plus 295 acres underwater) that
D.O. Mills had purchased in the
1860s might be donated to the city of San
Francisco for use as an airport was shattered
when Mills son Ogden died before complet-
ing the deal.
His heir, Ogden L. Mills, Jr., was skeptical
of the newfangled airplane fad, but agreed to
rent the land (starting March 1927) for $1,500
per year with a three-year lease, provided the
land was left usable and t for pasturage for
his dairy cows when the lease was terminated.
Many other sites had been considered, such
as Crissy Field and the Marina District in San
Francisco, San Mateo Point and South San
Francisco to name a few, as well as possibly
building wooden runways on the waterfront,
but all were rejected due to unfavorable water
conditions, fog or lack of expansion potential.
The San Bruno area had developed a tradition
of air pioneering since the 1860s when, 35
years before the Wright brothers made their
1903 ight, the Avitor, a kind of dirigible,
took to the sky with the aid of a steam engine
for a maiden ight. This took place at a private
race track on the Easton Estate in the present-
day Burlingame area (Broadway and
California Drive?), and, although the aero-
plane reached speeds of only 5 mph, it nev-
ertheless ew for a complete mile. It was
destroyed in a re later before it could be
own again. In 1908, the state of California
outlawed betting at the race tracks. This put a
halt to horse racing at Tanforan Race Track in
San Bruno. Alternative activities had to be
explored for the use of the land. Luckily, a
new invention, the airplane, was being devel-
oped. In 1910, the rst airplane in northern
California was own here. Louis Paulham
made the rst extended air ight on the West
Coast, taking off from the Tanforan race track
and ying for eight minutes, reached altitudes
of more tan 700 feet. During a 1911 air show,
Lt. Crissy successfully released a 6-pound
bomb on to the future Mills Field from a
Wright biplane piloted by Philip Parmelee. It
created a 3-foot by 2-foot hole in the mud.
On Jan. 15, 1911, Eugene Ely successfully
took off from Tanforan and landed on a 30-
foot by 130-foot plank platform on the
armored cruiser U.S.S. Pennsylvania, which
was anchored near the center of the Bay by
Alameda. The U.S.S. Pennsylvania was sister
ship to the U.S.S. California. The forward

A war memorial cross that once stood on
a rocky hilltop in a national park before
being deemed unconstitutional and ordered
removed will be resurrected on Veterans
Day at the stunningly stark Mojave desert
site, capping a landmark case for veterans
fighting similar battles on public lands.
Henry Sandoz, who cared for the original
1930s cross as part of a promise to a dying
World War I veteran, will rededicate a new,
7-foot steel cross on the same hilltop. The
site is now in private hands as part of a land
swap with the National Park Service that
ended the longstanding legal dispute, which
had become entangled in the thorny issues
of patriotism and religion.
Judges and lawyers may have played
their roles, but it was the veterans who
earned this memorial, and it is for them it
rises once more, said attorney Hiram
Sasser of the Texas-based Liberty Institute,
which represented veterans in the legal
fight.
The settlement approved by a federal
judge in April permitted the Park Service to
turn over the acre of land known as Sunrise
Rock to a Veteran of Foreign Wars post in
Barstow and the Veterans Home of
California-Barstow in exchange for five
acres of donated property elsewhere in the
1.6 million acre preserve, about a four hour-
drive east of Los Angeles.
The donated land was owned by Sandoz
and his wife, Wanda, of Yucca Valley.
Sandoz has cared for the memorial as a
promise to World War I veteran, Riley
Bembry, who with other shell-shocked vets
went to the desert to help heal and erected a
wooden cross on Sunrise Rock in 1934. It
was later replaced with a cross made of
steel pipes.
Then Sunrise Rock became part of the
Mojave National Preserve in 1994, putting
the Christian symbol on public land.
The American Civil Liberties Union filed
a lawsuit in 2001 on behalf of a retired Park
Service employee who argued the cross was
unconstitutional on government property
because of the separation of church and
state, and federal courts ordered it removed.
Congress stepped in and ordered the land
swap in 2003, but the courts rejected the
transfer. The issue made its way to the U.S.
Supreme Court, which in April 2010
refused to order the cross removed. The
high court directed a federal judge to review
the congressional land transfer plan.
The decision was the latest on the issue
by a Supreme Court that has signaled a
greater willingness to allow religious sym-
bols on public land amid a number of legal
challenges in recent years by civil liberty
activists and atheists.
Weeks after the 2010 court decision, the
cross which had been covered up to com-
ply with court injunctions was stolen.
The stolen cross turned up earlier this month
in the San Francisco Bay area tied to a fence
post. The San Mateo County Sheriffs
Department plans to return the cross.
But veterans plan to start fresh and dedi-
cate its replacement in an official ceremony
Sunday.
The Park Service plans to fence the site,
leaving entrances for visitors, and post
signs noting it is private land. A plaque stat-
ing that the cross is a memorial for U.S. war
veterans will be placed on the rock.

CHULA VISTA Arthur Lutes
arduous journey from his days as a
U.S. Marine to his nights sleeping
on the streets illustrates the chal-
lenge for the Obama administration
to fulll its promise to end home-
lessness among veterans by 2015.
Lute has post-traumatic stress dis-
order from the 1983 bombing of the
Marine barracks in Lebanon. He
spent years drifting through jobs,
two years in prison for assault, then
15 months sleeping in the bushes
outside the police department of this
city south of San Diego.
Today, he lives in a $1,235 a
month, two-bedroom apartment in a
working-class neighborhood. The
federal government pays nearly 80
percent of the rent and mostly cov-
ers the cost of medicines for his
depression, high blood pressure,
and other health problems. State-
funded programs pay for doctors
appointments for his 6-month-old
son and therapy for his wife, who he
said is bipolar.
Lute receives a Social Security
check and food stamps. A
Department of Veterans Affairs case
manager communicates with him
regularly and helps avert crises, like
when Lutes electric bill jumped in
an August heat wave and he could-
nt afford diapers.
A county program provided the

cooking utensils, dishes and other
basics.
An upcoming report is expected
to show the number of homeless
veterans has dropped by at least
15,000 since 2009, Secretary of
Veterans Affairs Eric Shinseki says,
and the drop is the result of an
aggressive two-pronged strategy to
not only take veterans off the street
but also prevent new ones from end-
ing up there.
But Shinseki made a bold prom-
ise in 2009: The administration
would end homelessness among
veterans by 2015. The former four-
star general says now theyre on
target to meet the goal.
Ofcials and outside experts said
it would take:
More than doubling of the cur-
rent, record annual progress.
Billions more in federal money.
More improvements and long-
term commitment to programs
aimed at the root issues that land
people on the streets mental ill-
ness, drug and alcohol addiction,
unemployment, poverty.
Its baloney to say it will end in
2015, said Bob McElroy of the
Alpha Project, which has helped the
homeless in San Diego for decades.
This needs to be a priority for
decades to come.
Others are keeping their ngers
crossed.
It can happen, said Steve Berg
of the National Alliance to End
Homelessness. He believes the
effort on veterans could lead the
way in showing what can be done
about overall homelessness, which
is more prevalent since the 1970s
because of the loss of affordable
housing, changes in mental hospital
admissions and the decriminaliza-
tion of crimes such as public drunk-
enness and vagrancy.
Of the countrys 22 million veter-
ans, an estimated 75,609 were
homeless in 2009 when Shinseki
announced the campaign. Veterans
make up 14 percent of the U.S.
homeless population.
I learned long ago that there are
never any absolutes in life, and a
goal of zero homeless veterans sure
sounds like an absolute, Shinseki
said in a November 2009 speech
announcing the effort. But unless
we set ambitious targets for our-
selves, we would not be giving this
our very best efforts.
The number of homeless veterans
dropped 12 percent between 2010
and 2011 to 67,497. Its expected to
fall below 60,000 when this years
count is released in the coming
weeks, Shinseki says.
Rare bipartisanship in
Washington is part of the reason.
Political consensus among lawmak-
ers and in the administration to do
everything possible for troops and
veterans has meant a huge increase
in the budget for VA health care and
other services to the homeless, from
$3.6 billion in the 2010 budget year
to the proposed $5.8 billion for
2013.
Major hurdles remain to end veteran homelessness

STATE/LOCAL

By Juliet Williams
SACRAMENTO Gov. Jerry
Brown secured a convincing win for
his tax initiative on last weeks bal-
lot, thanks partly to voters who
might not seem like a natural con-
stituency for the 74-year-old, life-
long politician young voters.
Those under 30 helped Brown win
relatively easy passage for his
Proposition 30, which will raise the
statewide sales tax for four years and
income taxes on high earners for
seven years.
College students and the parents of
school-age children had the most at
stake with the initiative. If it failed,
Brown and state lawmakers were
poised to cut $6 billion from K-12
schools and higher education.
Faced with the prospect of more
tuition hikes, students rallied for
Proposition 30 on social networking
sites and breathed new life into the
Democratic gov-
ernors plan to
stabilize state
nances.
Exit polls con-
ducted for The
Associated Press
and a consor-
tium of televi-
sion networks
showed 28 per-
cent of those who cast ballots on
Proposition 30 were between the
ages of 18 and 29, a demographic
that supported Browns initiative by
an overwhelming two-thirds. It also
was a higher percentage of young
voters than the pre-election polls
used to show the measure faltering
among likely voters.
Every poll was assuming that
young voters were going to be less
engaged than they were going to be
in each of the last four presidential
elections, said Scott Lay, president
and chief executive of the
Community College League of
California, who also runs a data-
driven political blog.
Lay, who supported Proposition
30, said he was still surprised that the
initiative fared so well, winning with
54 percent of the vote. Brown had
faced criticism from fellow
Democrats and the media for failing
to launch an aggressive campaign
sooner and concentrating so much of
his effort on college campuses.
Yet students apparently got the
message.
He really connected to them, and
they do feel a great deal of econom-
ic angst. Certainly they voted for
Barack Obama, but that probably
wasnt the leading reason they went
to the polls, Lay said. Obama may
have ridden the coattails of Prop. 30
in California.
Part of the credit also goes to
Californias new online voter regis-
tration system, which drew more
than 1 million users this fall and
helped at least 380,000 voters sign
up for the rst time, a demographic
that skewed younger and more
Democratic than the average
California voter.
The exit polls showed 53 percent
of 30- to 44-year-olds also supported
Proposition 30, while support fell
below 50 percent for voters age 45
and over. The survey of 3,018
California voters had a margin of
sampling error of plus or minus 3
percentage points. It was conducted
for AP and the television networks
by Edison Research.
Those under 30 joined minorities
and women in supporting Browns
proposal, which was billed as an
education initiative and had support
from the major teacher unions. Other
exit poll ndings for Proposition 30:
White voters, who made up 55
percent of those casting ballots, were
split 50-50 on the initiative.
Hispanics, who were 23 percent
of the electorate, were 53 percent in
favor and 47 percent opposed.
Asians, who were 12 percent of
the electorate, were 61 percent in
And blacks, who were 8 percent
of those casting ballots, were 75 per-
cent in favor and 25 percent opposed.
Support for Browns initiative also
fell with rising income levels:
Those who made less than
$50,000 a year were 58 percent in
Those who made between
$50,000 and $100,000 a year were
53 percent in favor and 47 percent
opposed.
And those who made more than
$100,000 a year were split 50-50.
Higher engagement from younger
voters will require future campaigns
to adapt. Organizers said those voters
are more likely to wait until the nal
weeks to register to vote and prefer
to connect with friends about politics
online rather than through iers,
phone calls or emails.
Young voters turned the tide for Brown

SACRAMENTO Two residents of
a Northern California assisted living
facility have died and four others are
hospitalized after eating soup with wild
mushrooms, authorities said.
Placer County sheriffs ofcials told
the Sacramento Bee that Barbara Lopes,
86, and Teresa Olesniewicz, 73, died
after eating the soup that had been pre-
pared by a caregiver at the facility.
The caregiver who prepared the soup
was among the six people sickened, said
Sheriffs Lt. Mark Reed. The conditions
of the four people hospitalized were not
immediately known, and their names
have not been released.
Deputies determined the deaths were
an accident after they were called to the
Gold Age Villa in Loomis on Friday,
Reed said. The caregiver just didnt
know the mushrooms were poisonous,
he told the newspaper.
Placer County ofcials referred ques-
tions about the incident to the California
Department of Social Services.
Wheelchair-equipped vehicles stolen from home
MENLO PARK A Northern California woman with a rare
bone disease is hoping police will be able to recover two
wheelchair-equipped vehicles that were stolen from the front
of her home.
Nettie Wijsman says her 1999 gold Dodge Caravan and 2000
black Honda CRV both equipped with $28,500 worth of
modications were stolen from outside of her Menlo Park
home last week.
The 55-year-old Wijsman said that since since 2007 she has
been conned to a wheelchair because of a rare condition
called cystic angiomatosis, a condition that has left her with a
fragile skeletal system. Wijsman says the thefts of the two
vehicles are threatening to take away her independence
because the modications on the vehicles allow her to drive.
There was insurance coverage on the Honda, but the van was
not covered.

WASHINGTON President
Barack Obama paid tribute at a
Veterans Day ceremony at Arlington
National Cemetery to the heroes
over the generations who have served
this country of ours with distinction.
He said the wreath he laid earlier at
Tomb of the Unknowns was intended
to remember every service member
who has worn a uniform and served
the nation.
In a speech at
the Memorial
Amphi t heat er
during the brisk,
sunny morning,
Obama said
America will
never forget the
sacrice made
by its veterans
and their families.
No ceremony or parade, no hug or
handshake is enough to truly honor
that service, the president said,
adding that the country must commit
every day to serving you as well as
youve served us.
He spoke of the Sept. 11 genera-
tion, who stepped forward when the
Towers fell, and in the years since
have stepped into history, writing one
of the greatest chapters in military
service our country has ever known.
Youve toppled a dictator and battled
an insurgency in Iraq. You pushed
back the Taliban and decimated al-
Qaida in Afghanistan. You delivered
justice to Osama bin Laden.
Obama also said this was the rst
Veterans Day in a decade with no
American troops ghting and dying
in Iraq, and that a decade of war in
Afghanistan is coming to a close.
Over the next few years, he said,
more than 1 million service mem-
bers will make the transition to
civilian life. As they come home,
Obama urged their fellow citizens
to always be there for them and
their families.
Later, the president and his wife,
rst lady Michelle Obama, and Vice
President Joe Biden and his wife, Jill,
greeted families in the cemeterys
Section 60, home to graves of service
members killed in Afghanistan and
Iraq.

TOMS RIVER, N.J. Irene
Cramer threaded her Mercury
Mountaineer around fallen branches,
slowing down in front of a squat
white ranch to see if, maybe, it could
be the temporary home she is des-
perate to nd.
Cramer and her husband, Tommy,
left their home in Lavallette, N.J., on
a barrier island, ahead of Superstorm
Sandy. The Cramers do not know
how much damage their home sus-
tained. Because the island and its
infrastructure were devastated, they
are looking for a long-term rental.
We have no other choice, Irene
Cramer said.
Thousands of New Jersey resi-
dents displaced by Superstorm
Sandy are frantically calling real
estate ofces, looking to rent a home
or apartment while they gure out
what to do about their storm-ravaged
homes. Others are joining waiting
lists at hotels lled with evacuees
and out-of-state utility workers.
Demand, real estate agents said, far
outstripped supply. Much of the
regions copious summer rental stock
is not listed this time of year, and
properties on the beach may be dam-
aged or inaccessible. The winter
housing stock is much smaller, and
months-long rentals of vacation
homes are virtually unheard of. And
the prices of rentals changes with
each season.
The number of people who need
homes now is much greater than what
all of the companies have combined is
available, said John Meechan, a bro-
ker with Diane Turton Realtors in
Point Pleasant Beach, N.J. The com-
pany has 16 ofces in Monmouth and
Ocean counties.
There are 961 rentals currently
available in Monmouth and Ocean
counties, said Al Veltri of Veltri
Realtors and president of the
Monmouth County Association of
Realtors. The number is active,
Veltri said, and because agents dont
automatically removed a lled list-
ing the number could be signicant-
ly less than listed.
Renters were being urged to take
what they could get. Many agents
were contacting owners of vacant
homes for sale, asking whether they
would be willing to rent them out for
a few months.
Weve been going crazy, said Ken
Parker, an agent with Century 21
Nifoussi Realty in Toms River, N.J.
Any time a rental comes on the mar-
ket, within hours it has multiple offers
on it, for the obvious reasons. Were
doing everything we can to help these
people. Were all in the same boat
down here.
Others plunked down cash, choos-
ing to buy a house, live in it tem-
porarily, and rent or sell it later.
Weve had people that have said,
for the price of renting, Ill buy it and
sell it next year, said Perry
Beneduce of Diane Turton Realtors.
He said one client displaced by the
storm purchased a $400,000 house
last week to stay in temporarily.
Beneduce and Margot
MacPherson, director of sales for
Hotels Unlimited, which operates six
hotels in the area, said people have
streamed in all week looking for
rooms or rentals, saying they have no
place to sleep other than their cars.
Its very emotional, MacPherson
said. Families pulling up in mini-
vans, infants in their arms.
MacPherson said the rst vacancy
at the Holiday Inn Express in Neptune
is Nov. 18. She has called business
travelers, brides and organizers of
traveling soccer tournaments, asking
if they might postpone their stays at
the hotel so displaced people and util-
ity workers can keep the rooms. Some
have obliged. MacPherson said utility
workers are sharing rooms and some
are sleeping on the oor.

Senators propose comprehensive
immigration changes
WASHINGTON Two senators on oppo-
site sides of the aisle are proposing compre-
hensive changes to the immigration laws that
would include a pathway to citizenship for the
estimated 11 million illegal immigrants now
in the United States.
Democrat Chuck Schumer of New York and
Republican Lindsey Graham of South
Carolina, who promoted similar proposals on
separate Sunday news shows said that no path
to citizenship would be available until the
countrys borders were secure.
Only then could those in the U.S. without
authorization come out of the shadows, get
biometrically identied, start paying taxes,
pay a ne for the law they broke, Graham
told CBS Face the Nation. They cant stay
unless they learn our language, and they have
to get in the back of line before they become
citizens. They cant cut in front of the line
regarding people who are doing it right and it
can take over a decade to get their green
card. A green card grants permanent residen-
cy status a step toward citizenship.

WASHINGTON Members of
Congress said Sunday they want to
know more details about the FBI
investigation that revealed an extra-
marital affair between ex-CIA
Director David Petraeus and his
biographer, questioning when the
retired general popped up in the FBI
inquiry, whether national security
was compromised and why they
werent told sooner.
We received no advanced notice.
It was like a lightning bolt, said
Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein
of California, who heads the Senate
Intelligence Committee.
The FBI was investigating harass-
ing emails sent by Petraeus biogra-
pher and girlfriend Paula Broadwell
to a second woman. That probe of
Broadwells emails revealed the
affair between
Broadwell and
Petraeus. The
FBI contacted
Petraeus and
other intelli-
gence officials,
and Director of
N a t i o n a l
I n t e l l i g e n c e
James Clapper
asked Petraeus to resign.
A senior U.S. military ofcial
identied the second woman as Jill
Kelley, 37, who lives in Tampa, Fla.,
and serves as an unpaid social liai-
son to MacDill Air Force Base in
Tampa, where the militarys Central
Command and Special Operations
Command are located.
Staffers for Petraeus said Kelley
and her husband were regular guests
at events he held at Central
Command headquarters. A U.S.
ofcial said the coalition countries
represented at Central Command
gave Kelley an appreciation certi-
cate on which she was referred to as
an honorary ambassador to the
coalition, but she has no ofcial sta-
tus and is not employed by the U.S.
government.
The ofcial, speaking on condi-
tion of anonymity because he was-
nt authorized to discuss the case
publicly, said Kelley is known to
drop the honorary part and refer
to herself as an ambassador.
The military ofcial, who spoke
on condition of anonymity because
he was not authorized to publicly
discuss the investigation, said
Kelley had received harassing
emails from Broadwell, which led
the FBI to examine her email
account and eventually discover her
relationship with Petraeus.
A former associate of Petraeus
conrmed the target of the emails
was Kelley, but said there was no
affair between the two, speaking on
condition of anonymity to discuss
the retired generals private life. The
associate, who has been in touch
with Petraeus since his resignation,
says Kelley and her husband were
longtime friends of Petraeus and
wife, Holly.
Attempts to reach Kelley were not
immediately successful. Broadwell
did not return phone calls or emails.
Petraeus resigned while lawmak-
ers still had questions about the
Sept. 11 attack on the U.S.
Consulate and CIA base in
Benghazi, Libya, that killed four
Americans, including U.S.
Ambassador Chris Stevens.
Lawmakers said its possible that
Petraeus will still be asked to appear
on Capitol Hill to testify about what
he knew about the U.S. response to
that incident.
Rep. Peter King, chairman of the
House Homeland Security
Committee, said the circumstances
of the FBI probe smacked of a
cover-up by the White House.
It seems this (the investigation)
has been going on for several months
and, yet, now it appears that theyre
saying that the FBI didnt realize
until Election Day that General
Petraeus was involved. It just doesnt
add up, said King, R-N.Y.
Petraeus, 60, quit Friday after
acknowledging an extramarital rela-
tionship. He has been married 38
years to Holly Petraeus, with whom
he has two adult children, including
a son who led an infantry platoon in
Afghanistan as an Army lieutenant.
Congress wants answers on Petraeus affair
David Petraeus

JERUSALEM Israel was drawn into the
ghting in neighboring Syria for the rst time
Sunday, ring warning shots across the border
after an errant mortar shell landed near an Israeli
military installation in the Golan Heights.
While Israel appeared eager to calm the sit-
uation, its response was a potent reminder of
how easily the Syrian civil war already
spilling across borders with Turkey, Lebanon
and Jordan could explode into a wider
regional conagration.
Israeli officials threatened even tougher
retaliation if attacks persist.
They have feared that the instability in Syria
over the past 19 months could spill across the
border into Israel, particularly as President
Bashar Assads grip on power grows increas-
ingly precarious.
Israel has little love for Assad, who has pro-
vided refuge and support to Israels bitterest
enemies through the years. But the Syrian
leader and his father before him have
kept the frontier quiet for nearly four decades,
providing a rare source of stability in the
volatile region.
The Israeli military said the mortar re
caused no injuries or damage at the post in the
Golan Heights, which Israel captured from
Syria in the 1967 Mideast war and then
annexed.
In recent weeks, incidents of errant re
from Syria have multiplied, leading Israel to
warn that it holds Syria responsible. Israeli
ofcials believe most of the re has come
from Syrian government forces, although they
think it has been inadvertent and not been
aimed at Israel.
We understand this was a mistake and was
not meant to target Israel, and then that is why
we red a warning shot in retaliation, said Lt.
Col. Avital Leibovich, a military spokes-
woman.

LONDON The head of the BBCs gov-

scandal over a botched report on child sex-
abuse allegations.
Chris Patten vowed to restore condence

the resignation of George Entwistle and the
scandals prompting his ouster.
Entwistle resigned Saturday night amid a
storm of controversy after a news program
wrongly implicated a British politician in a

OPINION 9
It aint gonna happen
Editor,
Last week, my 23 year-old son told
me he watched a show on television
about the secrets of the presidency. He
learned that even though presidential
candidates make all kinds of promises
during their campaign, once one
becomes president, everything changes.
My son also explained that a new presi-
dent is taught all the necessary high
priority, top secret and important
worldly and domestic responsibilities
and duties that a president does every-
day. Then, if a new president asks,
What about my campaign promises?
his staff tells him, It aint gonna hap-
pen. (Meaning, the presidential duties
are more important.) My son then
pointed out that during the presidential
debates and President Obamas cam-
paign, Obama never made any major
promises, because he knew that the job
of the president has its priorities.
Obama knows what the presidency is
like; he knows what he can and cant
do. Romney doesnt, so he makes all
kinds of promises, not knowing that he
cant possibly keep them all. Today, I
learned something new about the presi-
dents job, and about my son. I didnt
think he cared about politics. The
younger generation is smarter and more
aware than I thought. My son probably
gets his brains from his mother, but he
gets his curiosity from me.

I
ts human nature: never do today
what can be done tomorrow, next
week or next month. But human
nature or not, its an attitude that can be
costly even life-ending.
The nation woke up to that reality,
once again, in the aftermath of
Hurricane Sandy. Ill-preparedness,
indifference and foolish, foolish brava-
do has claimed the lives of dozens of
Americans to date. And the death toll
continues to climb.
One would be inclined to think that
after Hurricanes Hugo, Andrew and
Katrina that the citizens of this nation
the most advanced country in the
world with eyes in the sky that can see
these dangerous storms the very instant
they form would be readier than
anyone for landfall of these Atlantic
monsters. The country is not, though.
Despite plea after plea from emer-
gency ofcials, from men and women
who are experts in the eld, the nation
is still not bracing properly for the
potential consequences of high winds
and rising water ... The nation needs to
take notice of the devastation these
mega-storms can cause, both to proper-
ty and to lives. And for once, act like
the intelligent beings Americans are
supposed to be. Take all precautions
necessary and listen to the advice of
experts.

A private high
school at Bay
Meadows?
T
he Belmont City Council recently turned down
Crystal Springs application to build a new campus
off of Ralston Avenue. A majority of the council
voted no because of trafc impacts. The private school,
located in Hillsborough, cannot expand on its current site
because of that towns growth restrictions.
Now, another private school, Nueva Day, also located in
Hillsborough, plans to expand in San Mateos new Bay
Meadows development.
Several councilmembers
(past and present) are con-
cerned that the proposed
school is not in sync with the
site. But, unlike Belmont, the
city may not be able to stop
it. Thats because the specic
plan approved by the council
in 2005 included a school in
a long list of permitted uses.
At the time, no one expected
a school would ever be built
there because of nearby
George Hall Elementary and
Hillsdale High schools.
***
Nueva Day, a private preschool-middle school of 400 stu-
dents, is located at the Crocker Mansion in Hillsborough. It
was founded as a school for the gifted in 1967. Now the
school plans to build a high school for up to 450 students on
a three-acre site at Bay Meadows. In its application, Nueva
said proximity to public transportation and a community
park were perks for the school when it came to choosing a
location. The proposed school has a gym but no outside
elds.
The vision for Bay Meadows was to create a transit-orient-
ed community. The site is adjacent to the Hillsdale Caltrain
station, a popular stop on the baby bullet express trains to
San Francisco and San Jose. Residents and employees could
take the train to and from work and shop and eat at stores
and restaurants within easy walking distance. The promise to
neighbors who were concerned about impacts was that trafc
would be kept to a minimum. Any increase above the norm
would mean future development would halt unless there
were actions to decrease trafc. And the community park, to
equal downtowns Central Park, was to provide an oasis and
open space in the midst of new residential units and ofces.
Somehow Nueva doesnt t that vision. Because its stu-
dents come from all over, many of them will come by car.
The school day begins during the height of the morning
commute. Whats troubling is that with the success of
Caltrain ( it has broken all ridership records this year) and
with upcoming electrication of the rail line, Bay Meadows
is going to be a very desirable place to live and work. A pri-
vate high school whose students live outside the area may
not be the best use. While Nueva offers an important educa-
tional alternative, it will bring few advantages to the city or
the neighborhoods at this location.
***
Thats the bad news. The good news is that Nueva Day
plans to be a transit-oriented model. Fifteen percent of its
students already ride its four buses which start in San
Francisco, Los Altos, Palo Alto and Stanford. Fourteen per-
cent of its current students live in Hillsborough; 14.7 percent
live in Burlingame. About 12.3 percent live in San Mateo
and 12.1 percent live in San Francisco. Others come from
Santa Clara County. Its expected that many of these students
will attend the new high school. Nueva promises to provide
Caltrain passes to all of its students and faculty. There will
be no student parking. Because it will offer bus service and
train passes, and because parking will be limited to staff,
Nueva Day hopes to keep car trafc to a minimum.
San Mateo planning staff does not anticipate the trafc
will be greater than what is allowed. That is because devel-
opment of the site, both ofces and residences, has been
reduced signicantly. Originally there was to be 1.5 million
square feet of ofce space; now it is down to 800,000 square
feet. Originally, there was to be 1,250 housing units; that is
now down to 1,066 (417 town houses, 24 single family
homes and 625 condo apartments).
The site of the new Nueva school is north of 28th avenue,
three blocks from the Caltrain station. So far there have been
no complaints, no outcry from neighboring communities.
Even if there were, with the permitted use designation,
Nueva does not have to obtain a use permit or meet condi-
tions of approval. Nueva Day is setting a good example of
encouraging transit and discouraging driving. Even if a pri-
vate school was not part of the original vision, it may be OK
to get out the welcome mat. Whats the alternative?

E
lection night was tough for
Republicans, doubly so if you
are in California. Statewide and
nationally, we have taken quite a beating.
For my own race for Assembly, as a
friend of mine accurately predicted many
months ago, I have my head handed to
me by Mr. Incumbent. Many friends in
the district have even privately urged me
to switch party afliation.
I respectfully decline. Maybe its
because Ive always had a weakness for
lost causes; or, coming from China, I am
always wary of a government that pre-
tends to offer answers and moral guid-
ance in every aspects of civil life; or
more importantly, I believe a healthy
democracy requires a vigorous and vigi-
lant opposition. Here in California, the
Democratic-led Legislature could
become a stale pot, unless a spirited chal-
lenge once in a while from the other
party will make sure they eld worthy
candidates even in safe districts. My
Assembly opponent Rich Gordon de-
nitely tops that list.
But that alone is not sufcient for the
Republican Party. It is also time for us to
step up and offer solutions. If we want to
effect changes on important issues such
as pension reform, education and reduc-
ing the systematic impediments for eco-
nomic growth, we must work with the
Democratic majority
on issues higher on
their priority list,
such as the environ-
ment, social services
and health care
reform. For the good
of our constituents
and California, we
must play hard ball
when we could, compromise when we
should, and participate always.
For education, school choice is good;
but by itself cannot solve all problems in
K-12 education. We need to work with
teachers and offer pragmatic solutions to
improve our public schools now because
not every kid has parents who have the
knowledge or resources to take them out
of public schools. We also need to stop
pretending that a rising tide will neces-
sarily lift all boats, and be ready to sup-
port robust and tangible solutions to
assist the less fortunate amongst us. On
the environment, we must be part of a
constructive dialogue. For example, if
California is serious about reducing car-
bon emissions, solar panels alone are not
going to do it, lets consider nuclear
power. Lets build a number of them, in
Nevada (with an even worst unemploy-
ment rate than us), perhaps, as part of a
western states energy grid compact. On
health care reform, improving access and
reducing cost are worthy objectives. We
will advance our effective proposals that
achieve these objectives not by cumber-
some committees but through harnessing
the competitive and innovative spirits of
our industries.
At the same time, we must not shy
away from our principles. We must work
toward comprehensive and long-term
reform of the government pension sys-
tems. We must reduce the size and
improve the cost-effectiveness of govern-
ment to ease the tax burdens of
Californians. We must champion effec-
tive tort reform that will reduce cost to
small and local businesses and defend
religious freedom from malicious law-
suits that aim to drive religion out of
every aspect of public life wherever the
government steps into an area and
help.
The American people are an optimistic
people at heart, especially so here in
California. It is disheartening that turnout
in this presidential election seems low.
For those too disillusioned or disgusted
by the status quo, the California
Republican Party must present a vision
and a plan for renewed vibrancy and
upward mobility.

lenger for the state Assembly District 24

BUSINESS 10
NEW YORK Forget about the s-
cal cliff.
That might be hard, considering the
drama of last week. The stock market
had its worst two-day plunge in a year
after voters returned President Barack
Obama, a Republican House and a
Democratic Senate to power.
Investors fear the approaching cliff
tax increases and government spending
cuts that begin to take effect Jan. 1
unless Obama and Congress can work
out a compromise.
Economists say the hit to the economy
next year could be $800 billion and be
enough to push the United States back
into another recession. And nancial
analysts are predicting more market tur-
moil as the deadline approaches.
But lawmakers almost certainly will
work out a deal perhaps messily,
unsatisfyingly and with lots of theatrics,
but a deal nonetheless. But what hap-
pens after that, and to the market in
Obamas second term?
Home prices are rising again in many
parts of the country. Job growth is much
faster than it was last spring. Consumer
condence is up. So is retail spending.
And so is the stock market, last weeks
jitters notwithstanding.
Even some of those who think the
economy and markets will run into trou-
ble soon see better times on the other
side of the cliff.
David Kostin, Goldman Sachss U.S.
equity strategist, expects a budget battle
in Washington to send the Standard &
Poors 500 index down to 1,250 by the
end of the year, about 10 percent lower
than where it closed Friday.
Once the ght is nished, however,
things should turn around quickly, he
says. By the end of next year, the S&P
500 will reach 1,575, Goldman says,
clearing its previous all-time high by 10
points.
There are factors that could still hob-
ble the economy, of course.
Median household income has
dropped every year since 2007, after
adjusting for ination. The unemploy-
ment rate is still high. The Federal
Reserve warned last month that job
growth, like U.S. economic growth,
remains slow.
Here are three things you should
watch as you plot an investing strategy
for the next four years.
THE BOTTOM LINE
The traditional thinking is that a
Democratic president equals higher
taxes for businesses. But nancial ana-
lysts at UBS arent so sure. In a report
before the election, they predicted that
the corporate tax rate would drop under
Obama or Romney.
And anyway, says Carol Pepper, CEO
of the wealth management rm Pepper
International in New York, companies
arent going to stop growing just
because theyre faced with higher taxes.
That, she says, is cutting off your
nose to spite your face.
Also, for more than three years, com-
panies in the S&P 500 have improved
earnings every quarter compared with
the year before, according to market
research company S&P Capital IQ.
Beyond the fiscal cliff,
reasons for optimism
By Alan Fram
WASHINGTON A brewing and
potentially bitter ght over Democratic
efforts to curb libusters is threatening
to inflame partisan tensions in the
Senate, even as President Barack Obama
and Republicans explore whether they
can compromise on top tier issues such
as debt reduction and taxes.
A potential showdown vote to limit
Senate libusters would not come until
January. Democrats are threatening to
resort to a seldom-used procedure that
could let them change the rules without
GOP support, all but inviting Republican
retaliation.
That ght is looming as the newly re-
elected Obama and GOP leaders prepare
to use the lame-duck session of
Congress that starts Tuesday to hunt for
compromise on the scal cliff the
nearly $700 billion worth of tax increas-
es and spending cuts next year that auto-
matically begin in January unless law-
makers head them off.
That effort will be contentious enough
without added animosity over efforts to
weaken the libuster. Unless a libuster
compromise is reached, the dispute
could produce sour partisan feelings that
might hinder cooperation on legislation
when the new Congress begins work in
January.
Filibusters are a procedural tactic that
lets the minority party block bills that
lack the support of at least 60 senators.
Democrats seem likely to command a
55-45 majority in the new Senate, mak-
ing 60 a difcult hurdle.
Frustrated by the GOPs growing use
of libusters, Senate Majority Leader
Harry Reid is considering a Senate vote
in the new year to limit their use.
Fight brewing over curbing filibusters
By John Flesher
DETROIT Only a couple of weeks after Barack Obama
won the presidency in 2008, the man who
would become his Republican challenger in
the next election penned a New York Times
column with a fateful headline: Let Detroit
Go Bankrupt.
Those four words would haunt Mitt
Romney across the Rust Belt, where auto
manufacturing remains an economic pillar
especially in Ohio, a state that every suc-
cessful GOP presidential nominee has car-
ried, and in his home state of Michigan,
where his father was an auto executive and
governor.
Romneys opposition to the federal rescue of General Motors
and Chrysler didnt necessarily seal his fate in those two cru-
cial states. But no other issue hung in the background for so
long. And nothing that Romney tried his many visits, the
millions spent on ads, his efforts to explain and rene his posi-
tion could overcome it.
San Carlos Flight Center was awarded rst mention on the
Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA) Flight
Training Excellence Awards Honor Roll. The awards recog-
nize ight schools that exhibit the highest levels of success by
implementing practices that contribute to an optimal ight
training experience. Those practices focus on educational qual-
ity, customer focus, community, and information sharing.

RAIDERS FOOTBALL: OAKLAND TRAVELS TO BALTIMORE AND GETS SPANKED >>> PAGE 13
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
It wasnt exactly the party every-
one came to see. But at the end of
the 2012 Battle of the Strip,
Capuchino High School still had
plenty of reason to celebrate.
With a 52-33 win over rival Mills
High School, the Mustangs locked
up their first outright Peninsula
Athletic League championship
since 1958. At a perfect 5-0 in Lake
Division play, Capuchino will rep-
resent the PAL in the Central Coast
Section playoffs next week in
Division IV.
It feels great, said Capuchino
head coach Adam Hyndman. And
these guys totally deserve it. Weve
been through a lot of turmoil over
the year, a lot of adversity, but this is
a special group of kids. Im going to
let these guys bask in the moment a
little and enjoy what theyve accom-
plished.
It denitely was a historic after-
noon for the boys from San Bruno.
While the league title was the rst
thing on the players minds, every
other set of eyes was on Capuchino
running back Justin Ewing, who
came in to the game with a realistic
chance of breaking the CCS record
for most rushing yards in a single
season. Ewing needed 280 yards
just about his season average per
game to eclipse the 2,798-yard
record set in 1997. Everyone knew
it and the Vikings played like a team
that was hell-bent on making sure it
didnt happen against them and on
their home eld.
We talked about it all week,
said Mills head coach Mike Krieger.
We had a good game plan on
defense. Theyre more one-dimen-
sional than most of the teams weve
played year and we knew they were
going to try and go for the record
and we knew we had to do what we
can to stop it. Its our Super Bowl.
Its our league championship type
of game. That was the mentality all
week in practice.
Mills efforts on defense were
good enough to put the record on
hold for another week. Still, Ewing
rushed for 226 yards on 44 carries,
gaining 151 of those in the rst half.
He also found the end zone four
times.
At halftime, we tried to get it out
of his head, Hyndman said, we
werent looking to break any
records. We needed him to run the
ball hard in the second half and he
come out and did it. Hats off to

LITTLE BIG GAME
Panthers dominate
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
There is a position on the football
eld that holds the key to wins and
losses. Its not so much a player but
a spot on the eld that is constantly
changing. A team can change its for-
tune on every snap by winning this
battle.
Its the line of scrimmage and the
squad that can consistently push the
opposition out of the way more
effectively, will be the winner.
In the 85th Little Big Game, the
Burlingame football team dominat-
ed both sides of the line of scrim-
mage in a 41-13 win over San Mateo
Saturday afternoon in Burlingame.
The Panthers offensive line of Abe
Guzman, Austin Flowers, Peter
Johnson, Benji Palu and Tyler Nolan
consistently put the San Mateo
defense on its heels as that quintet
paved the way to 351 rushing yards.
They have been absolutely unbe-
lievable, said Burlingame coach
John Philipopoulos about his offen-
sive line. Nobody works harder
than they do. Were going to ride
them through the [Central Coast
Section] playoffs.
Led by the offensive line, the
Panthers scored on three of ve
drives in the rst half and three of
four possessions in the second half.
Running back Joe Mahe was the
main recipient of the Panthers push
up front as the senior rushed for 168
yards and two touchdowns on 23
carries, almost all of which came on
blasts right up the gut. He also
caught a seven-yard scoring pass
from quarterback Kevin Navas.
Mahe, who was hurt for a majori-
ty of the season, didnt expect to be
the focus of the offense Saturday.
I just got off an injury. I didnt NATHAN MOLLAT/DAILY JOURNAL

Rams, 49ers
play to a tie
in fast finish
By Janie McCauley
SAN FRANCISCO A furious, thrilling
nish to regulation ended with an overtime
dud. A tie and nobody particularly likes a
tie.
Especially not the NFC West-leading 49ers,
with a chance to separate themselves against
a division rival.
San Francisco and St. Louis played the
NFLs rst tie game in four years as kickers
from both teams missed overtime eld goals
in Sundays 24-24 outcome.
Greg Zuerlein kicked a 53-yarder, but the
Rams were penalized 5 yards for delay of
game. He tried again from 58 as coach Jeff
Fisher played for the win, and missed wide
right with 2:42 left in OT.

BALTIMORE Based on their
performance in a 55-20 loss to the
Baltimore Ravens, the Oakland
Raiders know where they need to
improve.
Everywhere. Offense, defense
and special teams.
We had too many mental errors
on defense, gave up too many big
plays, we turned the ball over too
many times and we didnt execute
on special teams, Raiders coach
Dennis Allen said after Sundays
defeat. When you do those things,
it generally results in something like
that.
Even a rst-year coach like Allen
had little trouble pinpointing the
litany of miscues that befell the
Raiders, who equaled a franchise
record for most points allowed, set
in 1961 and matched in 1981.
Oakland (3-6) has given up a total
of 97 points in the last two weeks,
and the Raiders have yielded at least
40 points in successive games for
the rst time since 1962.
Thats just the way its working
for us, wide receiver Darrius
Heyward-Bey said. We go to work
every day trying to get better in
every area. Right now, its just not
happening. But the plan is to always
try to x that.
Theres substantial work to be
done, starting with eliminating cor-
rectable mental errors.
We got to clean up what we did
wrong and theres a lot wrong,
said Carson Palmer, who went 29
for 45 for 368 yards and two touch-
downs.
Playing without injured running
backs Darren McFadden and Mike
Goodson, the Raiders gained only
72 yards on the ground.
Joe Flacco threw for 341 yards
and three touchdowns before taking
a seat late in the third quarter, and
the Ravens (7-2) set a franchise
record for points in a game.
Baltimore scored on six of its rst
seven possessions.
The Ravens led 27-10 at halftime.
In the third quarter, Flacco threw
touchdown passes of 47 and 20
yards to Torrey Smith, and holder
Sam Koch scored on a fake eld
goal to make it 48-17.
In the fourth quarter, Jacoby
Jones took a kickoff 105 yards for a
55-20 lead. Baltimores previous
record for points in a game was 48,
against Detroit in December 2009.
It was a rare blowout for the AFC
North-leading Ravens, who won
their previous ve games by a total
of 23 points. Baltimore has 15
straight home wins, the longest cur-
rent streak in the NFL.
Baltimore didnt punt until the
third quarter, and even that turned
out well. Phillip Adams fumbled,
the Ravens recovered the ball and
Flacco promptly threw a touchdown
pass to Smith.
Later in the quarter, Koch ran 7
yards for a touchdown on a fake
eld goal to cap a 74-yard drive.
Its our job to go out there and
stop them, Allen said after being
asked if he was bothered by the
play, which came with Baltimore
already up by 24.
Burned for 251 yards on the
ground last week by Tampa Bay
rookie Doug Martin in a 42-32
defeat, Oakland shored up its run
defense to stop Ray Rice. So Flacco
went to the air, repeatedly hitting
tight ends Dennis Pitta and Ed
Dickson over the middle in the rst
half before going long and outside
to Smith in the third quarter.
Rice ran for 35 yards and a touch-
down on 13 carries. He nished the
afternoon with 5,034 yards rushing
for his career, joining Jamal Lewis
as the only players in Ravens histo-
ry to top 5,000.
The Raiders used a 55-yard pass
from Palmer to Heyward-Bey to
close to 20-10 with 1:39 left in the
second quarter. It was the ninth
straight game in which Oakland
scored in the nal two minutes of
the rst half.
But that gave Flacco enough time
to add another touchdown before
the break. He went 5 for 6 for 73
yards before Rice ran for a 7-yard
score.
Oaklands rst possession ended
with Palmer at on his back. On a
fourth and 1 from the Baltimore 44,
Palmer took the snap from center
and took one step backward before
right guard Mike Brisiel stepped on
his right foot.
The Ravens then moved 22 yards
before Justin Tucker kicked a eld
goal.
After an Oakland punt, Flacco
completed an 18-yard pass to Pitta
and connected with Dickson for 40
yards before scoring on a 1-yard run
to make it 10-0.
Raiders do little right in 55-20 loss to Ravens

LONDON Always the joker,
Novak Djokovic was a man bearing
gifts after reaching the champi-
onship match at the ATP nals.
The top-ranked Serb beat Juan
Martin del Potro 4-6, 6-3, 6-2 on
Sunday in the seminals of the sea-
son-ending tournament, then hand-
ed out chocolates to thank journal-
ists for their cooperation through-
out the whole year.
I have a little chocolate treat for
everybody, Djokovic said after
answering English questions. If
you would be kind and accept my
present to you.
The Australian Open champion
then stepped off the podium and
handed out chocolates to anyone
who wanted one.
After each tennis match, players
are obligated to hold a news confer-
ence. Most players, including
Djokovic, normally answer ques-
tions in English from the interna-
tional media rst and then switch to
their native language for journalists
from their home countries.
Djokovic, who last week walked
out on court at the Paris Masters
with a Darth Vader mask to cele-
brate Halloween, is known for his
good humor. Some videos on
YouTube of him impersonating rival
players have gone viral.
Djokovic was originally sched-
uled to have his news conference
about 1 hour, 20 minutes after his
match ended on Sunday. But that
was delayed by 15 minutes, and he
didnt actually start until about 30
minutes after that.

By John Zenor
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. Now
its out of Alabamas hands.
The fourth-ranked Crimson Tide
has not only lost that aura of invin-
cibility that seemed to surround
Nick Sabans team through eight
games and the nal two minutes
against LSU, but surrendered con-
trol of its fate in the national title
derby. No. 9 Texas A&M made sure
of that with Johnny Manziels daz-
zling performance and a goal line
stand in Saturdays 29-24 upset.
Bama (9-1, 6-1 Southeastern
Conference) fell
three spots from
its nearly sea-
son-long perch
atop the rank-
ings and now
must hope for
some sort of
shakeup among
No. 1 Oregon,
No. 2 Kansas
State and No. 3 Notre Dame.
The word of the night from Saban
was recommit, and he used it sev-
eral times after the game. The Tide
nearly duplicated its last-minute
game-winning drive of the previous
week against LSU, but still had
plenty of issues that had seldom
crept up against lesser competition.
I was really concerned about this
week, Saban said. We seemed like
we were a little bit out of gas, and
Texas A&M is a really good team
and they played really, really well.
Their quarterbacks a really fantas-
tic player and made some plays that
were great plays out there. And you
have to have a tremendous amount
of discipline to play a guy like that,
and there were times when we did-
nt quite get it done the way wed
like to.
I think our players will recommit
themselves and do the things that
they need to do to nish the season
the right way, and hopefully have an
opportunity to accomplish some-
thing of signicance with this par-
ticular team, Saban said.
Alabama does still control its own
fate in the SEC, but has little chance
in the next two games to make a
statement for poll voters or the BCS
computers. Next up is a visit from
Western Carolina, a 1-9 FCS team.
Then comes Auburn (2-8, 0-7 SEC).
A win over the Tigers puts the
Tide into the SEC championship
game against No. 5 Georgia on Dec.
1. Alabama had trailed only 15 sec-
onds through eight games. Saban
pointed out that his 2003 national
champion LSU team lost 19-7 to
Florida and last years Tide team
dropped a 9-6 overtime decision to
LSU.
Alabamas offense has been
inconsistent the past two games,
with performances that went from
sputtering to fantastic faster than
Saban can scowl.
Quarterback AJ McCarron pulled
off a dramatic last-gasp rescue in
Baton Rouge but was picked off at
the goal line his second of the
game and the season trying to do
it again.
Bamas aura of invincibility gone
By Jenna Fryer
AVONDALE, Ariz. When the
ghting stopped, the oil had dried
and the last of the wrecked cars had
been towed away, Brad Keselowski
found himself on the brink of a rst
Sprint Cup title for himself and
team owner Roger Penske.
Only he wasnt in a celebratory
mood.
He entered Sundays race at
Phoenix International Raceway
trailing ve-time champion Jimmie
Johnson by seven points and had the
better car all day. And moments
after Keselowski raced his way into
the lead, a blown tire caused
Johnson to crash and take his bat-
tered car to the garage for repairs.
I wanted to take the points lead
by winning a race and not relying
on a failure, Keselowski said.
It was just the beginning of the
drama in the most chaotic race of
the year.
One many fans will likely call the
best of the season.
Perhaps for all the wrong reasons,
and thats what had Keselowski so
upset.
Im more just disappointed in
the quality of racing that we saw,
he said. I thought it was absolutely
ridiculous, and I was ashamed to be
a part of it.
Kevin Harvick snapped a 44-race
losing streak by beating Kyle Busch
on a pair of late restarts, and cross-
ing the nish line ahead of a melee
that broke out because NASCAR
failed to throw a nal caution ag
for an oil spill on the track.
It was the nal exclamation point
in a sequence that included Jeff
Gordon slowing his car on the track
to wait for Clint Bowyer so he could
intentionally wreck him as retalia-
tion for several weeks of on-track
contact between the two.
It led to a full brawl inside the
garage between the crews for the
two drivers, with Bowyer sprinting
from his car to join the fracas. He
was held back by NASCAR of-
cials from entering Gordons
hauler.
Its pretty embarrassing,
Bowyer said. For a four-time
champion, and what I consider one
of the best this sports ever seen to
act like this is pretty ridiculous.
Both drivers and their crew chiefs
were called to the NASCAR hauler
for a meeting with series ofcials,
and police ofcers stood outside on
guard.
Gordon said hes had problems
with Bowyer all season and had
reached his limit.
Things just got escalated over
the year, and Id just had it, he said.
Clint has run into me numerous
times, wrecked me, and he got into
me on the back straightaway and
pretty much ruined our day. Ive had
it, fed up with it and I got him
back.
He said he didnt know what
penalties might be coming from
NASCAR.
Theyve got to do what theyve
got to do, and I guess I had to do
what, he said.

think I would get as many carries, but
when I did, I gave it 110 percent, Mahe
said.
Part of the reason Mahe ran inside so
effectively is because the Bearcats were
concentrating on taking away the
Panthers sweep.
We stopped what we planned on stop-
ping, said San Mateo coach Jeff Scheller.
Unfortunately, we gave up the inside too
much.
Philipopoulos agreed with Schellers
assessment. He admitted the Bearcats lim-
ited the Panthers effectiveness on the out-
side.
[San Mateo] did a good job early of
taking away the edge, Philipopoulos said.
But if you take away something, some-
thing else is open.
Burlingame (5-5 overall) received the
opening kickoff and got to mideld before
the drive stalled, forcing a punt -- the
Panthers only punt of the rst half. After
stopping San Mateo on its rst drive, the
Panthers got their offense in gear. Starting
from their own 45, they needed just ve
plays to cover 55 yards with Mahe gaining
54 of those. He had runs of 18 and 29
yards and then plunged into the end zone
from two yards out to put the Panthers up
6-0.
After forcing another three and out by
the Bearcats, Burlingame went on a 67-
yard, seven-play drive, which was aided
by a personal foul penalty against San
Mateo. Keone Keahi capped the drive with
a 12-yard off right tackle with Palu escort-
ing him into the end zone for a 13-0
Burlingame lead.
The Panthers upped their lead to 20-0
with 7:19 left in the rst half, needing only
ve plays to cover 92 yards. From his own
48, Navas dropped back and found Evan
Struck wide open over the middle. With no
defender within 10 yards of him, Struck
easily sped into the end zone for the score.
The Panthers extended their lead to 27-0
on their rst drive of the third quarter as
Navas hit Mahe with a seven-yard scor-
ing pass to cap a six-play, 61-yard drive.
San Mateo nally scored on its ensuing
possession following an 89-yard kickoff
return by Larry Campbell, but the
Bearcats defense still could not stop the
Panthers as they needed 10 plays to go 69
yards with Mahe scoring from three yards
out for a 34-7 lead. A one-yard scoring run
with 7:13 left to play rounded out the scor-
ing for Burlingame.
San Mateo scored a touchdown in both
the third and fourth quarters. Taylor Sanft
threw an eight-
yard scoring
pass in the third
and Kevin
Garcia-Rodela
scored on a one-
yard plunge
with just over a
second left to
play.
The Panthers defensive front four were
equally as impressive as their offensive
counterparts at the line of scrimmage. The
quartet of Joe Johnson, Kyle Potts, Kevin
Mohr and Palu blunted the San Mateo
attack almost from the get go. The
Bearcats managed only 231 yards of
offense for the game, with 82 coming on
their last drive of the game against the
Panthers second-string defense. Through
most of the game, however, that
Burlingame quartet bottled up the San
Mateo offense.
We just couldnt get anything going,
momentum wise, Scheller said.
San Mateo didnt pick up its initial rst
down until there were just 17 seconds left
in the rst quarter. The Bearcats managed
just seven rst downs before picking up
ve more on their nal drive and the
Burlingame defense stuffed San Mateo on
fourth down three times, including once
inside the 5-yard line.
Our defensive line is as good as any
D line in the Bay Division,
Philipopoulos said. This may be the best
D line weve had here in quite some
time.

San Franciscos David Akers missed wide left on a
41-yard attempt that could have sealed it for the 49ers
(6-2-1), who lost quarterback Alex Smith to a rst-half
concussion.
And just when it seemed the 49ers and Akers typ-
ically reliable left leg would have one more chance
to win it, San Francisco linebacker Patrick Willis was
agged for holding Lance Kendricks on third down.
That extended St. Louis last drive, a costly mistake in a
long list of them on an uncharacteristically sloppy day
by coach Jim Harbaughs team.
Akers booted a tying 33-yarder with 3 seconds left in
regulation after Sam Bradford threw a 2-yard touch-
down pass to Austin Pettis with 1:09 remaining.
On the rst play of OT, Bradford completed an 80-
yard pass to Danny Amendola that took St. Louis (3-5-
1) to the 2, but the play was called back for an illegal
formation. Some 49ers fans got up to leave, then
returned to their seats.
Frank Gore ran for a 20-yard touchdown with 8:23 to
go in regulation just 17 seconds after backup quarter-
back Colin Kaepernick scurried 7 yards for a score.
Kaepernick nished 11 for 17 for 117 yards.
NINERS
NEW ORLEANS Jimmy Graham
caught seven passes for a career-best 146
yards and two touchdowns, cornerback Jabari
Greer made a diving, touchdown-saving pass
breakup on a late fourth-down play, and the
New Orleans Saints held on to hand the
Atlanta Falcons their rst loss, 31-27 on
Sunday.
Graham and his Atlanta counterpart, veter-
an tight end Tony Gonzalez, both were superb
in a game that showcased all the intensity and
drama of one of the NFLs most passionate
and longstanding rivalries
Gonzalez nished with 11 catches for 122
yards and two scores for Atlanta (8-1), and in
the process became the rst tight end to catch
100 touchdown passes.
Brees threw for 298 yards and three TDs as
the Saints (4-5) won for the fourth time in ve
games, keeping alive hope of getting back
into the wild card race after an 0-4 start.
BRONCOS 36, PANTHERS 14
CHARLOTTE, N.C. Peyton Manning
made sure John Foxs return to Carolina was
a successful one, throwing for 301 yards and
a touchdown.
Manning threw his 420th touchdown pass
to move into a tie for second place on the
NFLs all-time list with Dan Marino. He trails
only Brett Favre (508).
Manning had plenty of help from his team-
mates.
Von Miller harassed Cam Newton all day
and Trindon Holliday returned a punt 76 yards
for a touchdown as the Broncos (6-3) won for
the fth time in six weeks. The Broncos
sacked Newton seven times, including once
for a safety, and Miller pressured him into an
interception Tony Carter returned 40 yards for
a score.
Fox, who coached the Panthers for nine sea-
sons, downplayed his return all week, but cel-
ebrated with a few st pumps Sunday.
PATRIOTS 37, BILLS 31
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. Tom Brady
threw for two touchdowns, Devin McCourty
ended Buffalos hopes with an interception in
the end zone and New England kept Buffalo
winless at Gillette Stadium.
The Patriots (6-3) let a 17-3 lead slip to 34-
31 with 7:47 left on Ryan Fitzpatricks 2-yard
touchdown pass to Donald Jones. Then the
Bills (3-6) held the Patriots to a 27-yard eld
goal by Stephen Gostkowski with 2:06
remaining.
Buffalo then moved to a second-and-10 at
the New England 15 before Fitzpatrick threw
the ball right into the hands of McCourty
while trying to hit T.J. Graham.
New England is 11-0 against the Bills at
Gillette since it opened in 2002 and 20-2
overall in its last 22 games against Buffalo.
VIKINGS 34, LIONS 24
MINNEAPOLIS Adrian Peterson raced
61 yards for the game-sealing touchdown
midway through the fourth quarter, padding
his NFL rushing lead with 171 yards on 27
carries for Minnesota.
Peterson had 120 yards in the nal 15 min-
utes, 10 1/2 months after reconstructive sur-
gery on his left knee. Ponder bounced back
from a rough game with 221 yards and two
touchdowns on 24-for-32 passing for the
Vikings (6-4).
Calvin Johnson had 207 yards on 12 catch-
es, including a touchdown that brought the
Lions (4-5) a little closer with 1:53 left. But
Johnsons lost fumble near mideld on the
previous possession put Vikings rookie Blair
Walsh in position for his fourth eld goal.
BUCCANEERS 34, CHARGERS 24
TAMPA, Fla. Josh Freeman threw two
touchdown passes and the surging Buccaneers
scored on a blocked punt and Leonard
Johnsons 83-yard interception.
Freeman has thrown for 13 TDs with one
interception in his past ve games, helping the
Bucs (5-4) win four times to climb back over
.500 following a 1-3 start.
Rivers threw for 337 yards and three touch-
downs for San Diego. He was intercepted
twice in the fourth quarter to ruin any chance
of the Chargers (4-5) coming from behind.
BENGALS 31, GIANTS 13
CINCINNATI Andy Dalton threw a
career-high four touchdown passes each to
a different receiver and the Cincinnati
Bengals ended their four-game losing streak
by beating the New York Giants 31-13 on
Sunday.
The Bengals (4-5) took advantage of a fum-
ble and Eli Mannings two interceptions,
which set up third-quarter touchdowns. That
helped A.J. Green back up his observation
there are holes in New Yorks defense.
The defending Super Bowl champions have
a lot of holes everywhere.
The Giants (6-4) head into their bye with
back-to-back losses and a lot of issues, espe-
cially on offense. Manning had another sub-
par game, failing to live up his family legacy
of beating the Bengals. Older brother Peyton
improved to 8-0 against Cincinnati on the
same eld a week earlier, leading Denver to a
31-23 win.
The Giants turned it over four times in the
second half.
TITANS 37, DOLPHINS 3
MIAMI Colin McCarthy returned an
interception 49 yards for a touchdown, and
four takeaways helped Tennessee rout Miami.
The Titans came into the game on pace to
set an NFL record for points allowed in a sea-
son, but they stymied Miami by intercepting
Ryan Tannehill three times and recovering a
Reggie Bush fumble to set up a touchdown.
Tennessee (4-6) rebounded from a 51-20
loss a week ago against the Bears that prompt-
ed owner Bud Adams to put the organization
on notice. Last week the Titans trailed 28-2
after one quarter; this week they led 21-0 after
16 minutes.

coach Krieger and his staff. They did a very
good job. I think this the rst time we saw a
team tackle Justin at his legs. Hats off to them,
they did a good job preparing.
Mills didnt make it easy for Ewing or the
Mustangs. The Vikings jumped out to a 13-6
advantage only to see it drawn on a Ewing
touchdown with 6:28 left in the rst half. The
Mustangs scored the next two touchdowns
with Anthony Pellegrini nding the end zone
rst and Ewing adding another shortly after.
But the Mustangs gave up a long Antonio
Jeffrey kickoff return deep into Capuchino
territory late in the half and moments later,
Harshall Lal hooked up with Victor Beglitsoff
on a 25-yard touchdown pass to make it 26-20
at recess.
The six-point difference got to ve after the
teams exchanged touchdowns to begin the
second half.
But after another Ewing touchdown, the
Capuchino defense forced a trio of Mills
turnovers. First, Royal Ale intercepted a pass
that turned into a Paea Dauwe touchdown run.
Then Xeryus Collins fullled a bit of a self-
prophecy with a 29-yard pick-6 with 11:46
left in the game to make it 52-27. Billy
Balderas completed the turnover trifecta with
a fumble recovery midday through the fourth
quarter.
Its kind of been a problem the whole
year, Krieger said. We get some momentum,
closer on the scoreboard and then, missed
opportunities and turnovers. Its very difcult
as a high school football team to overcome a
turnover, much less multiple turnovers.
Our defense got some crucial turnovers,
Hyndman said, pointing out Collins score as
the linemans four-year football dream come
true. Hyndman said Collins went as far as pre-
dicting the score in the Mustang News the
week before.
Lal and Josh Sved added a touchdown late
for Mills for the nal outcome.
By far, the best display of pride for the
whole year and I think for the Mills football
program in the last several years, Krieger
said. Its been our mantra that we wanted
to nish the season. We preached nishing
every rep, every drill, every snap and nish
every game. And our kids, like we told them
postgame, they did nish. The scoreboard
might not say that they won, but I think it was
a moral victory for us and it certainly is build-
ing a new foundation for Mills football.
Ewing needs 54 yards in the opening game
of CCS to earn the new single-season record.
CCS is a new season, Hyndman said. We
play the best of the best. Were going in and
not change what we do. We have to go with
what got us here. I know whoever we do play,
we have a good group of kids that are going to
ght till the bitter end.

A
fter my dog Murrays last groom-
ing appointment, my wife com-
mented that he gets haircuts more
often than she does and they cost more! Its
true. Our accidoodle is a very light shedder,
prone to matting if we dont stay on top of
it. We have to brush him regularly daily
is the goal and get him to a professional
groomer every three months or so. When my
niece rst met him, she said, Oooh, he has
hair. Whats the difference between hair
and fur? Some believe dogs with hair are
non-shedders. Thats only partially true;
they shed much less and the shedding is less
noticeable since the hair that is shed can
stay in the dogs curls. The other miscon-
ception is that dogs with hair are hypoaller-
genic. Some breeds may cause much less of
an allergic reaction in those people who
sneeze up a storm when theyre around
many breeds, but none are totally hypoaller-
genic. Main differences between hair and
fur are growing cycles and texture. Hair just
seems to continuously grow, because it has a
longer phase of new growth than fur. Coats
of fur that continuously shed have shorter
growth phases. While hair tends to be
longer, ner and is frequently wavy or curly
(remember, those curls are what traps the
shedding hair and dander) with no under-
coat, fur is typically shorter and more dense
in texture with an undercoat in colder
months of the year. Shedding fur drops more
easily from the dog, so dogs with fur will
denitely leave more of themselves on your
ooring, clothes, bedding, couches and car. I
like the saying If you dont like dog hair,
stay off my couch! While neat freaks might
complain about dog fur, both fur and hair
require daily attention and care. We might
have made Labradoodles, but we havent
made a dog who vacuums or brushes him-
self. Small price to pay for the love and
companionship.

LOS ANGELES James Bonds
Skyfall has extended its worldwide box-
ofce rule to North America, hauling in a
franchise-record $87.8 million in its first
weekend at U.S. theaters.
Adding in $2.2 million from Thursday night
previews at IMAX and other large-format the-
aters, Skyfall has taken in $90 million
domestically, according to studio estimates
Sunday.
That lifts the worldwide total for Skyfall
to $518.6 million since it began rolling out
overseas in late October. Internationally, the
23rd Bond ick added $89 million this week-
end to raise its overseas revenue to $428.6
million.
The third installment starring Daniel Craig
as British super-spy Bond, Skyfall outdid
the $67.5 million U.S. debut of 2008s
Quantum of Solace, the franchises previous
best opening. Skyfall more than doubled
the $40.8 million debut of Craigs rst Bond
lm, 2006s Casino Royale.
Skyfall already has passed the $407.7
million overseas total for Quantum of
Solace and by Monday, it will top the $432.2
million international haul for Casino
Royale.
The Craig era has reinvigorated one of
Hollywoods most-enduring franchises,
whose rst big-screen Bond adventure, Dr.
No, debuted 50 years ago.
Its quite a testament to
Bond, considering its the
50th anniversary. What a
great anniversary present,
said Rory Bruer, head of
distribution at Sony, which
produces the Bond lms
along with MGM.
Skyfall was the week-
ends only new wide
release, but Steven
Spielbergs Lincoln had a huge start in a
handful of theaters. Starring Daniel Day-
Lewis as the 16th president, Lincoln took in
$900,000 in 11 theaters for a whopping aver-
age of $81,818 a cinema. By comparison,
Skyfall averaged $25,050 in 3,505 theaters.
Lincoln centers on the months leading up
to the presidents assassination in April 1865,
as he maneuvers to pass the 13th amendment
abolishing slavery and end the Civil War.
Distributor Disney will expand Lincoln into
nationwide release of about 1,600 theaters
Friday and may widen the lm further over
Thanksgiving week.
The film has strong Academy Awards
prospects for two-time directing winner
Spielberg, two-time acting recipient Day-
Lewis and the rest of the cast, which includes
Oscar winners Sally Field and Tommy Lee
Jones.
The performances are some of the greatest
of recent time, said Dave Hollis, head of dis-
tribution for Disney. I dont know if youre
ever going to think about it again without see-
ing our actor as Lincoln. Daniel is extraordi-
nary in the role.
Skyfall took over the top spot at the
weekend box ofce from Disneys animated
comedy Wreck-It Ralph, which fell to No. 2
with $33.1 million, raising its domestic total
to $93.7 million.
While Skyfall marked a new high for
Bonds opening-weekend revenue, the lm
has a long way to go to match the biggest
audiences 007 has ever drawn. Adjusted for
ination, Sean Connerys 1965 Bond adven-
ture Thunderball would have taken in an
estimated $508 million domestically in
todays dollars, with its 1964 predecessor
Goldnger not far behind at $444 million,
according to box-office tracker
Hollywood.com.
The Bond lms over the last two decades
have come in around the $200 million range
domestically in ination-adjusted dollars.
Still, Craigs Bond is setting a new critical
standard for the franchise. While Quantum
of Solace had a so-so critical reception,
Skyfall and Casino Royale are among the
best-reviewed Bond lms, with critics and
fans enjoying the darker edge Craig has
imprinted on 007.
Skyfall is to the Bond franchise what
The Dark Knight was to the Batman fran-
chise, said Hollywood.com analyst Paul
Dergarabedian. By taking it to a whole other
level, this is a different kind of Bond that can
be taken really seriously.
Directed by Sam Mendes, the Academy
Award-winning lmmaker behind American
Beauty and Craigs director on Road to
Perdition, Skyfall continues the current
franchises exploration into the emotional
traumas that have shaped Bonds cool, aloof
manner.
The lm reveals secrets out of the past of
Bonds boss, British spymaster M (Judi
Dench), and pits 007 against a brilliant but
unstable former agent (Javier Bardem) whos
out for revenge.
Hollywood remains on a brisk pace this fall
as the busy holiday season approaches.
Overall domestic revenues totaled $172 mil-
lion, up 26 percent from the same weekend
last year, when Immortals led with $32.2
million.
For the year, domestic revenues are at $9.1
billion, up 4.3 percent from 2011s, according
to Hollywood.com.

Bens support system starts with his
parents and four brothers but the extend-
ed family includes 17 cousins and
thats just on one side.
Sutherland said his rst cousin is the
sweetest of four competitive boys and
Alex Pessah said his most distinctive
feature is his laugh which is often heard
because hes always cracking jokes.
Pessah, a Burlingame native, is a
College of San Mateo student and run-
ning a business staging homes for real
estate, Sutherland said.
Ben Pessah is the type of man who
stands up for people and is always
willing to put himself on the line for
other people, Alex Pessah said.
Now, the cousins say they and Bens
other supporters are hoping the commu-
nity continues stepping up to help him
this time. They are also looking forward
to Pessahs eventual return home.
I told him when youre ready to cele-

accident.
Heard was driving a 2003 Cadillac
south on Highway 101 near Millbrae
Avenue with four friends including
Gaines as they headed home from a
night in San Francisco. The Tahoe driv-
en by Lazo lost a tire which stopped in
one southbound lane and Heard swerved
to miss it, colliding with the center
divider and stopping in the middle lane.
Minutes later, prosecutors said Leffew
crashed his Nissan 300ZX into the car,
pushing it down the highway for a dis-
tance. The Cadillacs passengers
received various injuries but Gaines suf-
fered a traumatic head injury and
remained on life support until Nov. 18
when he was removed.
While Leffew was hospitalized with
his own injuries, a blood sample placed
his blood alcohol level at .12 percent. He
was charged with Gaines death the fol-
lowing March.
Heards accident prior to being hit by
Leffew complicated the case which led
prosecutors to take several months
before filing charges and ultimately
resulted in the lesser plea deal.
As a result of the crash, Heard suf-
fered severe brain damage and bleeding
and facial, pelvic and wrist fractures,
according to the compensation claim
denied by the state in June. In the docu-
ment, Heard states his current medical
costs are more than $270,00 and project
to pass more than a half-million dollars.
According to the claim and subse-
quent lawsuit, Heard holds Caltrans and
the state of California liable for insuf-
ciently lighting and maintaining the
highway near the Millbrae Avenue off-
ramp. The California Highway Patrol
failed to respond and remove the tire in a
timely manner, thereby creating the dan-
gerous condition of public property that
led to Heards crash into the retaining
wall and subsequent hit by Leffew, the
claim states.
A case management conference in the
civil suit is set for April.

CRASH
Walking Tree Travel Director Gabriel
Duncan, about the intentions of himself
and two friends when they started the
company eight years ago.
All three of the guys had traveled
internationally and enjoyed everything
about being immersed in a different cul-
tures beautiful hikes, hard-to-get-to-
sites, challenging conversations when
one doesnt know the language and
learning about the differences in other
cultures.
Its the last part that stuck with the
girls.
Seventeen-year-old May explained her
host familys home only had three walls.
Her little sister, in her host family, was a
4-year-old girl named Rachel. May was
amazed at the creativity of Rachel, who
loved to paint but couldnt afford proper
arts and craft tools. Instead, Rachel
would use a mango or anything else col-
orful around her to express herself.
It changed my whole view of pover-
ty, said May, who
had worked and
saved to take part in
the trip. I struggle to
pay for things like
Homecoming. They
viewed the world in a
different way. You
accept what you
have.
Becker, 17,
agreed. She noticed
her host family spent
lots of time together.
They made meals
and ate together. For
Becker, who lives
with her mom and
sister, that wasnt
often the case. The
three women have
different, busy
schedules. Since coming home, Becker
noticed a change. Her family also spends
more time together and cooks dinner.
Both girls also took part in a journal-
ism program offered through Walking
Tree. The girls would each get $500
toward the tuition and take on a blogging
topic to research while on the trip. May
compared the differences between teens
locally and those in Costa Rica. Becker
wanted to explore the differences in
music. Differences were easy to nd.
May noticed teens in Costa Rica were
excited and eager to learn. While at
home, teens often complained about
school requirements. Becker noted that
music was used to bring people together
in Costa Rica and was often on from the
early-morning hours while staying with
the local family.
Cultural experiences included helping
to rebuild a health clinic. For Becker, the
construction was a new challenge. They
also explored the area through hikes to
hard-to-access waterfalls and white-
water rafting. May commented those
were activities she may never do again,
and might not have done on her own, but
were amazing experiences.

MONDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 2012
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Those with whom you
have dealings will immediately sense that youre not
apt to be making idle promises. Your mind will be
focused on making good on your commitment.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Your fnancial
prospects look to be quite promising. Its possible
that you might receive some extra gains through your
own efforts and an arrangement set up by another.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Taking a situation at
face value is not likely to be one of your weak points.
In fact, youre more likely to be interested in whats
behind a facade than what is in front of it.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Although youre in
a good achievement cycle right now, you still might
not get everything you pursue on your frst try. If you
should fall short of your mark, simply regroup and
try again.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Should a bright idea
fash through your mind regarding how you can
constructively revitalize a fagging relationship, try it.
Chances are itll work.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Because you are so
easily motivated, your possibilities for achieving your
goals are better than usual. Youll know what you
want, and youll know how to get it.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Your situation might
dictate needing to concentrate strictly on the imme-
diate, but it wouldnt hurt to look ahead a bit as well.
Plan now for future action.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- If there is something
that you feel can be changed for the better, dont
suffer in silence. Instead of waiting for others to take
action, make the adjustments yourself.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Diffcult decisions
wont be resolved by ignoring or sidestepping them.
Look these problems straight in the eye and take
whatever steps necessary to remedy them.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Even if you get a few ad-
ditional responsibilities dumped in your lap, youll
be able to handle them. In fact, getting successful
results will give you a sense of pride.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Your managerial skills are
functioning at all levels. Associates will fnd you to be
quite compatible and easy to get along with, yet you
can be quite serious and dedicated when necessary.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Although this could be a
rather hectic day, you should still be able to fnd the
time to conclude several matters that need to be com-
pleted. They may all be interrelated, which could help.

stopped by ropes strung across the planks
with sacks of sand tied to the end of the ropes.
This was a crude method of stopping the
plane, but it proved effective.
In the early 1920s, the Mills pasture was
used occasionally for landings and takeoffs,
but it became imperative to buy land for an
airport when Congress passed the Kelly Bill
in 1924 which allowed for the contracting of
private companies to carry the U.S. mail. San
Francisco had to provide a dependable aireld
or be left out of the race to become a rst-
class city. It was estimated that at least
$350,000 would be needed for a 9,000-foot
runway, buildings, lighting, a meteorological
station, etc., but the supervisors had so far
approved only $100,000 for the project. With
only a three-year lease in their pocket from
the Mills Estate, the city of San Francisco
dedicated the property 14 miles south of the
city for its airport on May 7, 1927, and imme-
diately began grading this site for runways
and buildings.
Earlier, on April 25, 1927, still hoping that
the Mills Estate would donate the land to the
city, the supervisors had named the aireld
Mills Field Municipal Airport. Shortly there-
after, on May 21 and 22, 1927, Charles
Lindbergh made his historic ight from New
York to Paris, and the country went wild over
the future of aircraft. Fifty cents would allow
you to view airplanes close up when barn-
storming yers landed in cow pastures all
across the United States in the next years. On
Sept. 16 of that same year, Lindbergh landed
in the Spirit of St. Louis at Mills Field on a
nationwide tour promoting air travel. In a
ight two years later in a heavier plane,
Lindbergh unfortunately got stuck in the mud
while maneuvering for his takeoff. Other sur-
rounding airelds that had hoped for govern-
ment money for airmail contracts jumped
quickly on this bit of misfortune that had
smudged the good reputation that San
Francisco wanted to build up for its aireld.
However, progress was not long in coming to
Mills Field. The age of commercial aviation
had begun and a little mud was not going
to stop it.

Journal.
HISTORY
The biggest determining factor was that
we couldnt handle the automobile bailout
issue, said Bob Bennett, chairman of the
Ohio Republican Party.
Fairly or not, the perception of Romney as
indifferent to the auto industrys fate was a
cofn nail, said John Heitmann, a University
of Dayton historian who teaches and writes
about the cars place in American culture.
Ohio is second only to Michigan in auto-
related employment. A 2010 report by the
Center for Automotive Research in Ann Arbor
said the industry accounted for more than
848,000 jobs in Ohio, or 12.4 percent of the
workforce. That included jobs with vehicle
manufacturers or dealers and with businesses
that sell products or services to them, plus
spinoff jobs produced by their economic
activity.
Exit polls conducted for The Associated
Press and television networks found that
about 60 percent of voters in both states sup-
ported the governments loan and industry
restructuring program, and three-quarters of
them backed Obama. The bailout also was
popular in Wisconsin, even though it hadnt
stopped GM and Chrysler from closing plants
there.
We have a debt to pay back to President
Obama. He saved us, said Joseph Losier, 33,
a fourth-generation autoworker from subur-
ban Detroit. After the bailout, Chrysler hired
500 people at the stamping plant where he
works.
Even those with no direct connection to the
industry were grateful.
He actually kept his promise. I felt like he
cared, said Darlene Jackson, 57, of Detroit,
who has worked as a seamstress since losing
her city job during the recession.
Romney insisted hed been misunderstood
he wanted to save U.S. auto manufactur-
ing, not destroy it. In his newspaper column,
he argued that federal loans would merely
postpone the companies demise: You can
kiss the American automotive industry good-
bye.
He called for a managed bankruptcy that
would let the companies cut labor costs and
become more competitive. Proper roles for
government would include supporting energy
and technology research, adjusting tax poli-
cies and protecting car buyers warranties, he
said.
But those nuances got lost as the campaign
geared up. Automakers fortunes had
improved, and as many as 1 million jobs had
been saved. Obama said Romneys approach
would never have worked because no private
capital was available to keep the companies
aoat.
After stumbling badly during the first
debate, the president made the bailout an early
topic during the second. He raised it again
during the candidates nal encounter, which
was supposed to be about foreign policy.
If we had taken your advice ... about our
auto industry, wed be buying cars from China
instead of selling cars to China, Obama said.
A defensive Romney retorted: Im a son of
Detroit. ... I would do nothing to hurt the U.S.
auto industry.
But by then, the argument was a moot point
for most Ohio voters. Nearly seven in 10 had
made up their minds before September, the
exit polls showed.
With time running out, Romney strategists
gambled by airing television and radio ads in
Ohio that claimed Obamas policies had led
GM and Chrysler to build cars in China.

There Is
New Hope!
A Health Center
Dedicated to
Severe Disc
Conditions
Youve seen the ads and heard the
radio commercials about my Non-
Surgical Spinal Decompression
treatment. At Crossroads Health
Center, Ive created an entire facility
dedicated to patients with severe disc
conditions that have not responded
to traditional care. My revolutionary,
Crossroads Method, provides a very
high success rate to patients with
serious back, neck, leg and arm pain
even when all else has failed. This
FDA cleared; non-surgical treatment
allows us to rehabilitate your
herniated or degenerative disc(s)
by reversing internal pressure and
enabling your disc(s) to heal from the
inside out. We succeed where other
treatments have failed by removing
the pressure that is causing pain to
your disc(s) and nerves without
drugs, injections, invasive surgery or
harmful side effects.
The only ofce to have
The Crossroads Method
This method which includes
computerized true disc
decompression is considered by
many doctors to be the most
advanced and successful non-
invasive treatment of serious back,
neck, leg or arm pain.
This procedure allows for a much
higher success rate by increasing
hydration of your discs, fexibility,
relaxation of muscles and ligaments
along with improving muscle and
core strength, balance and posture.
This results in a more effective and
lasting solution to your pain. There
are no side effects and no recovery
time is required.
This gentle and relaxing treatment
has proven to be effective even
when drugs, epidurals, traditional
chiropractic, physical therapy
and surgery have failed The
Crossroads Method has shown
dramatic results.
Patient Testimonials
During the 1 1/2 years of having
constant daily lower back pain and
spasms, I took anti-infammatory
and pain medication, but nothing
helped lessen the pain. When
an MRI showed that I had two
degenerative discs, I went through a
series of lumbar epidural injections
without success. 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!
Lisa K.
My severe low back and sciatica
pain have been reduced signifcantly
since receiving spinal decompression
therapy at Crossroads Health Center.
I am now able to walk, golf, and do
things that I havent been able to do in
years! I would also like to say thanks
to Dr. Ferrigno and the offce staff as
they went above and beyond to make
sure my back problem was resolved. I
couldnt be happier!!
