Budget provisions
BUDGET PRIORITIES
Here are some of the state’s top spending categories and how
they fared in the budget proposal,according to the state
Department of Finance and a Democratic budget analysis (the
cuts are calculated from projected spending levels before
elimination of the $19 billion deficit):
• K-12 funding remains steady at about $47 billion,lower than
it would have been had lawmakers not suspended the
Proposition 98,minimum-guarantee funding level.
• Higher education funding increases slightly to about $11.5
billion.
• Health and human services programs are cut about $900
million,to about $27 billion,although Democrats say they
were able to avoid reducing caseloads.The budget rejects
Gov.Arnold Schwarzenegger’s proposal to eliminate
CalWORKS,the state’s welfare-to-work program.
• Prison spending is cut about $1.1 billion,to about $8.9 billion,
mostly by lowering the cost of inmate health care.
DEFICIT REDUCTION
Proposals to close California’s $19 billion budget deficit:
Revenue assumptions:
• $5.3 billion from the federal government,nearly $2 billion
more than Schwarzenegger projected in May.
• $1.4 billion in additional tax revenue if the economy
improves.
• $1.2 billion from selling 11 state properties and leasing back
the buildings.Earlier projections said the state would net
about $660 million after bond debt is paid off.
Accounting maneuvers:
• Delay $1.7 billion owed K-12 schools into the next fiscal year.
• Delay $189 million owed community colleges into the next
fiscal year.
• A $200 million budget reserve,down from the $1.2 billion
sought by Schwarzenegger.
Corporate tax breaks:
• $1.4 billion from delaying a corporate tax break for two
years,offset by a $132 million loss from changing the way
some companies calculate taxes.
Spending cuts of about $7.5 billion,including:
• $3.1 billion by reducing the Proposition 98 school funding
formula below the guaranteed level.
• $1.5 billion through reduced pay and pension benefits to
state employees.
• $1.1 billion from the Department of Corrections and
Rehabilitation,including $820 million in reduced spending
on inmate medical care.
• $937 million in reductions on health and human services
programs.
• $212 million from higher education,made up by increased
federal funding.
• $541 million in assorted reductions across state agencies.
STATE EMPLOYEES
• The budget includes a one-day-a-month furlough this fiscal
year for state employees,which would reduce their salaries
by nearly 5 percent.The governor also achieved savings
through the nine furlough Fridays he reinstituted in August;
they will end this month.The furloughs contained in the
budget achieve the savings Schwarzenegger sought in
January through 5 percent pay cuts across all state
departments and among all state workers.
• Lawmakers repealed a 1999 law that lowered the
retirement age for state employees and boosted their
pensions.Those lucrative benefits will remain in place for
current employees but not for new state workers.
Under the changes,the retirement age for newly hired peace
officers,firefighters and employees of the state university
system,legislative and judicial branches will increase from 50
to 55.The retirement age increases from 55 to 60 for new
employees in most other state jobs.
The new retirement formulas will take effect for most
employees hired after Jan.15,2011.The hiring date change is
earlier,Nov.10,for managers,supervisors and appointees.The
changes take effect this month for four unions representing
psychiatric technicians,maintenance workers,doctors and
social service professionals.
• Existing and future state workers will contribute more to the
state’s retirement funds.The contribution will rise by 3 percent,
down slightly from Schwarzenegger’s request in January for 5
percent.
• The practice know as “pension spiking”is banned.A three-
year salary average will be used to calculate benefits for new
employees,instead of allowing the use of last-minute salary
hikes to increase retirement benefits.

There may only be one thing state and local

On Friday, just hours after bleary-eyed leg-

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger took pen to sign
it, San Mateo County’s elected officials in
Sacramento took different views of the cuts,
deferments and spending used to solve a $19

Gov.: State got best offer for buildings
By Judy Lin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO — While there are
good reasons to own, Gov. Arnold
Schwarzenegger said Friday that
California has received solid offers to
sell 24 state office buildings to private
investors and then rent that space back.
“It went through the bidding process
... so let me tell you, we got the best
offer,” the Republican governor told a
news conference shortly after the
Legislature passed a new spending plan
that relies on $1.2 billion from proceeds
of the government sell-off plan.
Schwarzenegger and lawmakers are
moving ahead with the sale to help fill
the state’s $19 billion deficit despite
warnings that it may end up being more
costly for taxpayers in the long run.

Second conviction in witness tampering case
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A gangmember accused of helping a
jailed murder defendant scare off wit-
nesses in his trial just weeks before jurors
deadlocked on the charges pleaded no
contest to felony intimidation and was
immediately sentenced to probation and
credit for time served.
The settlement by Arturo Becerra, 20,
is the second so far in a witness tamper-
ing case that began with seven arrests,
including that of murder defendant and
alleged conspiracy ringleader Josue
Orozco. Since then, prosecutors declined
to charge one man, dropped the case
against another and saw one plead no
contest last week to conspiracy.
After Becerra pleaded no contest to an
added count of felony witness intimida-
tion, he was immediately given three
years probation and credit for time earned
while in custody in
lieu of $100,000 bail.
The terms are simi-
lar to those of Edgar
Cibrian, 20, who
pleaded no contest to
conspiracy and
received three years
supervised probation
Arturo Becerra and credit for time
served.
The District Attorney’s Office dropped
conspiracy and gang charges against
Cesar Ponce, 20, of Redwood City, on
Monday due to insufficient evidence.
Ponce received a call from Orozco ask-
ing him to participate but never acted on
it, according to his defense attorney Eric
Liberman.
Charges still stand for Bianca Aguillon,
19, Alexandro Stephen Villar, 19, and
Orozco. A preliminary hearing for the
three began Friday and will finish Oct.
19, said prosecutor Josh Stauffer.
Orozco, an alleged Sureño gangmem-
ber, is accused of fatally shooting
Francisco Rodriguez, 21, outside his
Redwood City home in July 2005.
Orozco believed Rodriguez was a rival
gangmember who had slighted his gang,
according to the prosecution.
Orozco, who was 14 at the time and
later escaped from the county’s juvenile
hall, stood trial for murder last winter and
jurors deadlocked in December on mur-
der and gang changes. He is currently fac-
ing retrial Nov. 15.
After the trial, prosecutors announced
that, between May 2009 and March 2010,
he allegedly organized fellow gangmem-
bers to keep witnesses from testifying or
change their testimony in his last and
upcoming case. The plan was uncovered
through jail house phone records.
The conspiracy suspects were arrested
in a multi-agency, multi-city raid in
March.

Husband convicted
of killing wife, again
Jurors Thursday convicted a Daly
City man for the second time in four
years of killing his wife after she
sought a divorce, dismissing the
defense theory that it was actually
his longtime girlfriend who wielded
the knife while his children were in
nearby rooms.
The first-degree murder and knife
use conviction means Quincy Dean
Norton Sr., 36, faces 26 years to life
in prison when sentenced. The same
conviction was handed down by a
jury in May 2008 but the next year
Judge Craig Parsons overturned the
verdict after finding original defense
attorney Pat Fox incompetent.

National security shuffle:

WASHINGTON — Gen. James
Jones, the gruff-talking military

ambitious foreign policy changes
and undercurrents of corrosive turf
battles.
Jones will be replaced by his chief
deputy, Tom Donilon, a former

the outcome will be,” said Mayor
Jim Ruane, noting it is unclear what
the total cost for the explosion and
rebuilding will be. “The other thing
that bothers me, this in fact is a local
tragedy of epic proportions.”
Lights out for M-A games
Just days before the Menlo-
Atherton Bears were scheduled to
take on The Kings Academy
Knights under newly-erected lights
on the football field, a judge pulled
the plug by granting neighbors’
request to bar the evening activity
until a lawsuit is settled.
District and school officials
scrambled to find a new location for
Thursday night’s game. District
spokeswoman Bettylu Smith said
the district was “surprised and
deeply disappointed” by the ruling.
Anna Shimko, who is represent-
ing the PARC group, had yet to talk
with the neighbors but was pleased
as the group got exactly what it
requested.

Partnership with special individuals
Lions Club works with Special Olympics to raise money
By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Miniature golf is an activity
accessible to people of all ages, but
it’s not often one can play while
doing some good for others.
Members of the Lions Club
International and Special Olympics
decided to work together earlier this
year and formed the Bay Area
Special Olympics Club. The group
focuses the work of participating
Lions on helping intellectually and
physically challenged individuals in
the community. One of the main
ideas is creating fun opportunities
like bowling or baseball events that
are open to all. Creating such oppor-
tunities requires some fundraising.
Next week, the group is kicking off
a first annual event in hopes of rais-
ing some of the needed funding.
BASO Lions President Amy Fink
described volunteering at events
since the group started as fulfilling.
“We want to work with special
people,” she said.

in June when the group helped host

ments.
Officials in Virginia’s Arlington
County, Washington, D.C., and
Santa Clara County, Calif., have
voted recently to opt out of the pro-
gram, saying it could lead to racial
profiling. San Francisco officials
have attempted to get out of the pro-
gram with no luck, and several other
communities are debating whether
they want to participate.
THE DAILY JOURNAL
At this point, members are look-
ing to help and open to suggestions.
In the meantime, the group is
hosting “Putting for Our Pals,” a
miniature golf tournament in
Redwood City Thursday, Oct. 14.
The event, described by Lion Raj
Sahae as easy-going, will include a
traditional tournament, awards and
raffle prizes. Paying to participate
also includes food and drink.
Proceeds from the event will benefit
supporting those with special needs,
emphasizing athletic events.
“What inspires me the most about
these events is the number of people
willing to provide their time and
money. The community response is
always astounding and it never ceas-
es to amaze me when people go out
of there way to help with no materi-
al gain,” Sahae said. “It’s just a nice
reminder that there are amazing
people in the world, and they are
just regular Joes like you and me.
When a group of these people come
together with the single-minded
purpose such as ours, the results are
quite humbling.”
The U.S. Immigration and
Customs Enforcement website says
jurisdictions that do not wish to par-
ticipate in the Secure Communities
program can ask federal immigra-
tion officials to remove them from
the program.
On Friday, ICE Director John
Morton said that the agency would
meet with the localities to discuss
the issue, but in the end the agree-
ment is with the state.
THE DAILY JOURNAL
Updates from Bozo the Clown
F
irst, I need to apologize for
a major booboo I committed
in my column of Oct. 2. In
it, I indicated that before the health
care reform act, seniors in the
United States would be hard put to
obtain knee and ankle replacements.
Of course, that is ridiculous, as I
completely forgot about Medicare.
My apologies, especially, to Harry
Roussard of Foster City, whose let-
ter to the editor I was referencing.
***
Well it looks as if the national
Republicans read Old Bozo’s
columns too. Minority House Whip
Eric Cantor, Mississippi Gov. Haley
Barbour and other prime Republican
national leaders are issuing state-
ments identical to what Bozo wrote
in his column the “Delusions of
Power,” that even if the Republicans
take both houses of Congress in the
2010 midterms, there is little they
will be able to do as long as the
president is of the other party.
In effect, they are preempting
what they know will be a gross dis-
appointment to those whom they
have led to believe they could cure
the country’s ills, instantly, with a
few bold strokes. Of course, other
than attempting to repeal the health
care reform bill, they have never
revealed what those bold strokes
would be. Recipients of Social
Security, Medicare, other social
services, the military, the beneficiar-
ies of tax breaks for the rich and
corporations, subsidies for the mega
agribusinesses — all the vastly
major beneficiaries of the country’s
budget — are waiting breathlessly.
I thought they actually did learn
their lesson when Newt Gingrich,
the “Little Caesar” of the
Republican Revolution of 1994,
thought he had won the leadership
of the free world and ended up
being bounced out of favor after
shutting down the government to
pressure and spite Bill Clinton.
Meanwhile, what could the cur-
rent Republican delegations in
Congress have done in the past 20
months to help move the country
ahead? They could have done what
Obama regularly promoted, spoken
to and negotiated with the
Democrats instead of sitting pas-
sively in their chairs, arms folded
tightly across their chests, jaws
squared, teeth clenched, with frozen
expressions and letting only the
word “No!” pass through their rigid
lips.
As I wrote, it will be very much
up to the president as to where the
country would go after such a
takeover. The question will be
whether he retains residual bitter-
‘’Friends of the Republicans’
have been hoarding that loot, cutting
costs, laying off workers and having
some of their most profitable years ever.’
ness for how viciously he has been
dehumanized and lied about by the
Party of No — led by Rush
Limbaugh — or whether, what I
perceive, his deeply felt Christianity
and love of country will support for-
giveness and reconciliation to move
the nation forward, much as Bill
Clinton did after the Republican
takeover in 1994, working with the
Republicans in Congress doing such
important things as reforming wel-
fare.
I’m betting on Obama. I’m not so
sure about the Party of No.
They all know there are only two
ways to pull unemployment and
underemployment out of the ditch-
es. One is for the government to use
Treasury funds to invest in large
works projects. The other is getting
large private enterprises to start
spending much of the huge amounts
of money — trillions of dollars —
garnered from the incredibly low
interest money promoted by the Fed
in hopes of priming the recovery.
Instead, these major “Friends of the
Republicans” have been hoarding
that loot, cutting costs, laying off
workers and having some of their
most profitable years ever. All clear
and obvious to anyone who reads
anything other than the sports,
comics and entertainment pages and
watches those loony cable stations.
If the voters still do not want the
government to act with Treasury
money, they will need to pressure
those big business “friends” to let
loose of some or all of those tril-
lions of dollars of loot and get the
economy back on the track it was
pushed off by Reaganomics and the
recklessness of the financial world.
Of course, the middle and lower
economic classes are having nerv-
ous breakdowns. Who wouldn’t
when blindsided in what appeared
to be “the best of all possible
worlds” during the Reaganomics
fantasy?
What we have now is a decoupled
society, a greedy and still-thriving
Wall Street and those looking for
more tax breaks for the wealthy
indifferent to the suffering of the
middle and lower economic classes
who have lost the most and still los-
ing in this economic travesty foisted
upon an unsuspecting and trusting
public by the greed of the ’90s,

OPINION
of deregulation and the disastrous
rule of Bush/Cheney in the 2000s.
Great expectations
I wrote several months ago, from
a political point of view, the
Republicans would fare best by not
taking over Congress in 2010 and
leaving the burden of responsibility
still squarely on the shoulders of the
national Democrats. The reason is
what I call: “Great Expectations.”
Why?
Obama is suffering from that now,
as have previous political figures
who genuinely meant what they said
when they made promises about
what they intend to do if elected.
But the reality hits after they do win
the office. Harry Truman and John
Kennedy both commented at how
powerless they felt after they
became presidents, moving into an
historically complex government,
with hundreds of different agendas
in play, being exercised at varying
levels of power.
In the explosive, anger-driven
environment we have today, irra-
tionality is king and if you promise
something and expectations are
high, you better make good or you
will be hit with a double whammy
of anger that you have disappointed
those you inspired to vote for you.
The national Republicans are begin-
ning to realize they may have over-
stimulated the anger a bit and over-
sold what they will be able to do if
they acquire some power again.
But will they be able to win? I
still have the nagging feeling that
we may be seeing what I call the
“Truman effect.” It is where the
polls were accurately reflecting the
voter’s feelings at the moment
against Truman, but there was quiet-
ly developing a sense of reality
about what the consequences of
their votes could be as he, almost
completely abandoned by the
Democratic Party establishment,
began a whistlestop tour around the
country asking whether the voters
wanted to go back to the “good old
days” of Republican indifference to
their human needs in favor of Wall
Street and the major businesses and
corporations?
As I wrote several weeks ago, the
Republicans of today, particularly
Minority Leader Rep. John
Boehner, are not doing themselves
much good during this interim
before the elections by stopping or
resisting further help for the unem-
ployed and underemployed and
bragging they are going to cut back
on entitlements. That is when the
voters begin to wonder whose enti-
tlements, ours or the upper-income
folks and businesses?
This show of indifference to the
plight of the middle and lower eco-
nomic classes doesn’t give much
encouragement for those who are
hurting and their families and
friends to give Republican candi-
dates a vote of confidence in the
elections.
Nor does it help they are openly
trying to cut back or abort the new
efforts to rein in the wayward and
greedy financial world. I believe
they are underestimating the sup-
pressed voter anger at those now,
again, thriving institutions.
As in the Truman Effect, as the
particles of the first “dustup” of
anger settle and as concerned and
disaffected groups rev up opposition
— as in their recent march on
Washington — it is likely we will
be seeing subtle shifts in voter mood
reflected in the polls and by election
time, who knows? Polls are already
showing that 56 percent of voters
now say they will vote for congres-
sional representatives who voted in
favor of the health care reform act.
A Truman-like surprise?
I am getting closer to predicting
the Republicans will not win either
the House or the Senate.
To this day, I have believed that
Obama would be only a one-term
president. But if the Republicans
win both houses, again, I will be
betting the farm on a return of the
“prodigal” Obama to the White
House in 2012.

Vote the bums out
Editor,
You may have heard the cry,
“Vote the bums out” and wondered
who the bums were, especially if
you voted the bums in the first
place. You can check the voting
record of senators and congression-
al representatives on the Internet if
you want to. It’s all there to see
and easy to find. I think generally,
people are too lazy to do it them-
selves and vote for the recogniza-
ble name. Please don’t do that this
time. Our cities, state and country
are all in financial chaos, the ship
is sinking and the current crew
does not know how to right us. I
say mutiny in November.
Take back the ship of state and
get a new crew in there.
We need to sail right back to the
constitutional values set in 1776.
The Founding Fathers were steer-
ing us in the right direction. Vote
the bums out.

Dow closes above 11,000
By Stephen Bernard
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
1,344.20 NEW YORK — The Dow Jones
industrial average closed above 11,000
for the first time in five months Friday as
hopes built that the Federal Reserve will
take more action to get the economy
going again.
The milestone, which effectively eras-
es the effects of a long summer slump
for stocks, comes one day before the
three-year anniversary of the market’s
all-time high. The Dow is still 22.3 per-
cent below that level.
The last time the Dow closed above
11,000 was May 3, just three days prior
to a harrowing “flash crash” that briefly
sent stocks plummeting. The Dow had
reached its highest level of the year just
a week before.
A weaker jobs report added to a series
of tepid economic indicators in recent
weeks that have built expectations that
the Fed will announce new steps to
encourage borrowing when it meets in
early November.
Private employers added 64,000 work-
ers last month, short of the 75,000 econ-
omists expected, according to a monthly
government report released early Friday.
BofA stops U.S. foreclosures for review
By Alan Zibel
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Bank of America
on Friday halted foreclosures on homes
across the country so it could review
paperwork in tens of thousands of cases
for flaws, expanding a crisis at a perilous
time for the housing market.
The move came as PNC Financial
Services became the fourth major bank
to announce that it would stop foreclo-
sures in at least some states. It added to
growing concerns that mortgage lenders
have been evicting homeowners despite
flawed court papers.
Bank of America, the largest U.S.
bank, had said a week earlier it would
stop foreclosures in the 23 states where
the process must be approved by a judge.
Ally Financial and JPMorgan Chase had
announced similar plans.
Bleak news for Democrats in jobs report
By Tom Raum
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The economic die
is cast, and it’s grim news for
Democrats. There’s nothing now that
Congress or President Barack Obama
can do before the November elections to
jolt the nation’s listless recovery.
Friday’s unemployment report — the
last major economic news before the
midterms — showed the nation contin-
ued to lose jobs last month, reinforcing
the bleak reality that it probably will be
not months but years before the jobless
rate returns to pre-recession levels below
6 percent.

WASHINGTON — Federal aviation

by air transport of the batteries.
The warning follows last month’s

Dubai that killed both pilots.

governments laid off workers, including
temporary census employees. The unem-
ployment rate held steady at 9.6 percent.
Jason Pride, director of investment
strategy at wealth management firm
Glenmede, said that the weak report
gives the Fed “the window of opportuni-
ty to take action.”
The Fed’s goal, if it starts buying
bonds again, would be to drive interest
rates down further from their already
low levels and spark borrowing and
spending. Lower rates could also eventu-
ally drive investors into riskier assets
like stocks or into currencies in countries
with more attractive interest rates.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
If anyone should have been
absolutely out of gas when the final
whistle sounded, it would have been
El Camino running back Nathan
Huey. After all, it was his 36-carry,
163-yard effort that helped propel
the Colts to a 23-20 win over visiting
Hillsdale Friday afternoon.
Yet Huey looked as fresh at the
end of the game as he did at the
beginning. Which is surprising, con-
sidering a majority of his yardage
came between the tackles.
“I could play (football) games for
days,” Huey said.
El Camino (1-0 PAL Lake, 3-2
overall) ran its offense to near per-
fection, which in turn, helped out the
Colts’ defense. Going up against a
Hillsdale team that has developed a
reputation over the last year and a
half as a big-play offense, the Colts’
best defense was to have a ball-con-
trol offense.
The Colts did precisely that. On
their three touchdowns, the Colts
used drives of eight, 12 and 11 plays.
On the drive that cinched the win —
culminated by an Aaron Reinke 31-
yard field goal — the Colts ran 11
plays before Reinke booted what
turned out to be the game-winning
points with 1:32 to play.
“We did what we do,” said El
Camino coach Mark Turner. “We
kind of wore them down a little bit.”
Huey was an absolute beast, espe-
cially in the second half. He had 18
carries for 68 yards in the first half
and had another 18 carries for 95
yards in the second half.
“We’re a run team. We don’t make
big plays. We chop them five yards
at a time until we get in the end
zone,” Huey said.

Trash talking
alive and well
By Dennis Waszak Jr.
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — The insults spread around
the Jacksonville Jaguars’ locker room within
minutes.
Tight end Marcedes Lewis overheard an
Indianapolis Colts player during warmups call
their game against the Jaguars last Sunday “an
easy one.” Lewis passed the message along to
his teammates, and the furious Jags took it out
on the Colts on the field.
Jaguars 31, Colts 28. So much for that
gimme.
“Obviously, whatever was said was some-
thing we saw as disrespect and we just wanted
to come out and play ball,” running back
Maurice Jones-Drew said. “It kind of added a
little fuel to the fire, which is good because we
got after them.”
Jaguars coach Jack Del Rio stopped short of
giving that unidentified Colts player a game
ball, but wanted to “thank the guy.”
“Against the Colts last week, we felt a little
disrespected,” he said. “It worked.”
Yep, trash talk still comes through loud and
clear, with some players just unable to keep
their mouths shut on the field.
Guys like Chad Ochocinco, Terrell Owens,
Darnell Dockett, Philip Rivers, Bart Scott,
Joey Porter and Cortland Finnegan do it. A lot
of it. They’re Pro Bowl players with champi-
onship-caliber material.
“You’re ugly.”
“You’re old.”
“You’re too slow.”
“Your team stinks, and so does your breath.”
And, that’s just for non-expletive-filled
starters.
“On the field, I’m a different person,”
Tennessee linebacker Stephen Tulloch said.
“I’m in a different zone, so I might say some
things just to get myself fired up or to get into
the opponent’s head.”

defenseman. “I had a lot of people down here.”

has another chance to prove he’s a
capable starting quarterback.
Kolb will replace the injured
Michael Vick when the Philadelphia

Sunday. Vick didn’t practice all

By Josh Dubow

OAKLAND — In past years, the
Oakland Raiders have sometimes
tried to downplay the significance of
their long losing streak against the
AFC West rival San Diego Chargers.
This year, they’re facing the 13-
game skid head on.
Coach Tom Cable addressed the
losing streak at a team meeting and
placed signs around the locker room
with an inflammatory — and embel-

forced Reid to make a flip-flop deci-
sion, and bench Kolb one day after
declaring he was going to remain
the starter.
“He’s done a good job, and done
everything we’ve asked him to do,”
Reid said of Kolb. “He seems com-
fortable with the game plan and I
think is fired up about playing.”
Kolb was 22 for 35 for 201 yards
with a touchdown and an intercep-
tion after replacing Vick. His des-
peration heave into the end zone on
the final play bounced out of Jason
Avant’s hands and was picked.

Kolb struggled in the opener

he’s led the Eagles to just 15 points

Last year, Kolb became the first
player in NFL history to throw for
300 yards in his first two starts.
He’ll be making his fourth career
start on Sunday.
“It’s super high,” Kolb said when
asked his confidence level. “And our

have been a little lopsided, but it’s
always a physical game.”
Oakland’s late game struggles last
year played into Schottenheimer’s
comments on the Raiders on Sirius
NFL Radio this week.
Schottenheimer said he always told
his players that if they stayed in the
game long enough, the Raiders
would find a way to lose it.
The quote posted in the Oakland
locker room was much more inflam-
matory than what Schottenheimer
actually said, accusing the Raiders of
folding and saying that that was still
the perception around the league.
None of that will matter Sunday,
when the teams take the field.

Lechler said. “I really don’t need to

Favre allegations
By Barry Wilner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. — The NFL said Friday it would
review allegations involving the Vikings’ Brett Favre, who the
website Deadspin said sent racy messages and photos to a for-
mer game hostess while he was the Jets’ quarterback in 2008.
The league action comes one day after the site posted a
video that included below-the-waist photos, said to be of
Favre.
The Vikings will travel to New York to play the Jets on
Monday night.
“We are reviewing the matter,” league spokesman Greg
Aiello said when asked about reports that
a person alleged to be Favre sent voice-
mails and lewd pictures to Jenn Sterger.
Asked to respond to the Deadspin report
on Thursday, Favre said: “I’m not getting
into that. I’ve got my hands full with the
Jets and am trying to get some timing
down with our guys, so that’s all I’m
going to discuss.”
Vikings coach Brad Childress had no

comment after Friday’s practice. He said
he was not aware of either the NFL’s investigation or the web-
site’s allegations. Bus Cook, the agent for the three-time
league MVP, didn’t immediately return messages.
Later Friday, Deadspin reported that Favre also pursued
two female massage therapists who worked part-time for the
team, according to one of the women. Deadspin did not iden-
tify the women, but a Jets spokesman said the team has con-
tact information for the two women and was giving that infor-
mation to the league. The Jets spokesman requested anonymi-
ty because the NFL investigation is ongoing.
The women were two of 17 massage therapists the Jets used
during what they called two intensive recovery days in train-

Reds unravel,Phillies rally for 2-0 series lead

By Rob Maaddi
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PHILADELPHIA — From no hits to no
defense.
Reds right fielder Jay Bruce missed a line
drive in the seventh inning, allowing two runs
to score, and the Philadelphia Phillies took
advantage of Cincinnati’s shoddy defense to
earn a 7-4 win Friday night for a 2-0 lead in
the best-of-five NL division series.
After Roy Halladay threw the second no-
hitter in postseason history in Philadelphia’s
4-0 victory Wednesday, the Reds were deter-
mined to show their resilience.
Brandon Phillips hit a leadoff homer on
Roy Oswalt’s fourth pitch and the Reds built a
Phillies 7, Reds 4
4-0 lead before their defense and bullpen
unraveled.
The Phillies rallied against hard-throwing
rookie Aroldis Chapman and his triple-digit
fastball after soft-tossing starter Bronson
Arroyo kept Philadelphia’s hitters off balance.
Game 3 is Sunday night in Cincinnati. Cole
Hamels, the 2008 World Series MVP, pitches
for the Phillies. Johnny Cueto is on the mound
for the Reds.
Leading 4-3, the Reds turned to Chapman
to protect the slim margin in the seventh. The
22-year-old Cuban came in firing, but he hit
Chase Utley with a 101 mph fastball leading
off. It wasn’t clear whether the ball grazed
2007 All-Star game.
Utley’s right forearm, but he didn’t seem
shaken.
After Ryan Howard struck out, Jayson
Werth hit a bouncer to third baseman Scott
Rolen. Utley beat the throw to second on a
close call. Phillips threw his arms up and Reds
manager Dusty Baker came out to argue
briefly.
Jimmy Rollins then hit a liner to right that
Bruce turned into a two-base error. Bruce
appeared to lose the ball in the lights or the
sea of white-and-red “Fightin’ Phils” rally
towels. The ball rolled past him and Utley
scored the tying run. Werth scored without a
play when Phillips dropped the relay throw
for another error, and the Phillies took a 5-4
lead.
Braves dating to their last trip to the playoffs in ’05.
Raul Ibanez followed with a single and
Carlos Ruiz hit an RBI grounder for a 6-4
lead.
Werth hit an RBI single off Nick Masset in
the eighth to cap the scoring.
Jose Contreras tossed a perfect seventh to
earn the win. Ryan Madson worked the eighth
and Brad Lidge pitched around a leadoff walk
in the ninth for the save. Third baseman
Placido Polanco made a diving, backhanded
stab on Chris Heisey’s hard grounder and
threw to first to end it.
The Reds finished second in the NL with a
club-record .988 fielding percentage, but four
errors led to five unearned runs. Their reliev-
ers hit three batters, who all ended up scoring.
Philadelphia had eight hits, all singles.

regular season.
The All-Star closer has 10 saves of five outs in
his career, six this year. Wilson had gone 26 con-
secutive appearances without allowing more than
one earned run until Friday.
Atlanta’s rally spoiled a strong postseason debut
by Giants starter Matt Cain a day after Tim
Lincecum’s 14-strikeout, two-hit gem in a 1-0 vic-
tory. Pat Burrell hit a three-run homer in the first
inning Friday to stake San Francisco to a quick
cushion.
Burrell connected on the first pitch from Tommy
Hanson with two outs in the first, sending the pom-
pom waving sellout crowd of 44,046 into a frenzy
of orange. The attendance was the largest in the
history of AT&T Park, topping the total from the
But Ankiel’s shot silenced the ballpark.
Before his home run, Ankiel had been known in
the postseason for his meltdown against Atlanta in
2000 while pitching for the St. Louis Cardinals.
That year, Ankiel started Game 1 of the NL divi-
sion series but had major control problems and
wound up walking six with five wild pitches in
only 2 2-3 innings. The issues with his command
eventually convinced the now-center fielder to
switch positions.
The Braves, back in the playoffs for the first time
since 2005, also had a major league-leading 25
wins in their final at-bat this year.
The teams have Saturday off for travel. Left-
hander Jonathan Sanchez goes in Game 3 for the
Giants against righty Tim Hudson. Both pitched
their teams to victory and playoff berths on the
final day of the regular season.
Brian McCann’s RBI single in the sixth snapped
a 24-inning postseason scoreless stretch by the
The Giants hadn’t allowed a run in 28 innings
dating to the fourth inning of their game last
Saturday against San Diego.
But Atlanta did little else against Cain until it got
to the bullpen. Wilson entered with none out in the
eighth and runners on the corners.
In 2003, the Giants’ last trip to the playoffs,
Jason Schmidt pitched a three-hit shutout in a 2-0
Game 1 win over the Florida Marlins before San
Francisco lost the next three and was done.
Cain faced potential trouble in the fifth with run-
ners on first and second with one out, then got
Jason Heyward to ground into an inning-ending
double play.

TALK
Continued from page 11
Ryan has said many times since
being hired in New York in January
2009.
From pregame warmups to the final
snap, insults and jokes are shouted
between players with each looking to
get under the other’s skin.
“When somebody talks trash, it gets
me going, naturally, because I grew
up around it,” Dallas running back
Tashard Choice said. “It just makes
me more fiery, man, it brings you out.
I grew up talking trash. I grew up in
the ’hood. That’s what we do.”
Jets defensive end Trevor Pryce
says a lot of quarterbacks talk during
games, including Rivers and his new
teammate, Mark Sanchez.
“But, you know who runs their
mouths a lot? Special teams guys,”
Pryce said. “On kickoffs and kickoff
returns, they are jawing back and
forth. That’s where you hear most of
the talk.”
Trash talking in the NFL is certain-
ly nothing new, with Deion Sanders
and Warren Sapp known as much for
their mouths as their outstanding tal-
ent. It has all been ramped up the past
few years by players using social
media such as Twitter to intimidate
and distract.
“Twitter has taken trash talk to a
whole new level,” Pryce said. “It’s
personal. They know where your
COLTS
Continued from page 11
The Colts needed every one of
those points because, while they
kept the Hillsdale (0-1, 3-2) offense
in check for most of the game, the
Knights lived up to their quick-strike
reputation when they scored twice in
the fourth quarter, needing all of one
minute and 14 seconds to do so.
Between the two Hillsdale scores,
however, Reinke kicked his field
goal for the Colts. Twice Hillsdale
mom lives and all kinds of craziness.
That’s why I don’t have a Twitter
account. I don’t want anybody talking
to me about any foolishness.”
Talking trash in 21st century
Owens and Ochocinco are among
the biggest trash talkers of athletes on
Twitter. Ochocinco has got into play-
ful “tweet-offs” with Darrelle Revis,
Louis Delmas and Jay Cutler among
others.
“I’ll hear stuff that’s said about me
and I’ll go on attack and I’ll go on a
little rampage,” Owens said. “People
can never really grasp the context of
which I’m texting, so they take it that
I’m (angry) and stuff like that. There
are things that you do hear and you
take offense to it, but I think Twitter
and all these social networks are a
way of really getting your point across
and really giving your side of the
story.
“So for myself and I know Chad, I
have a lot of fun with it.”
Finnegan prefers to keep his trash
talk on the field.
“It’s just for Sundays,” he said. “I
mean, really it’s one extra thing you
do to get under someone’s skin. ...
Anybody who knows me off the field
knows you love what you do so much,
you try to take it to the next level, and
that’s what I try to do.”
Some players use it for motivation,
while others simply ignore it as much
as they can.
“It’s entertainment, really,”
Cowboys linebacker Keith Brooking
said. “For me, I think there’s a line
went for the onside kick, and twice
El Camino recovered the ball.
“Offensively, we just weren’t very
good,” said Hillsdale coach Mike
Parodi. “The basic, fundamental
things, we need to fix.”
Hillsdale couldn’t muster much in
the first half, finishing with just 33
yards of offense. El Camino on the
other hand, had 152 yards of offense
in the first half.
More importantly, following a
scoreless first quarter, El Camino
scored twice over the final 7:50 of
the first half: a 1-yard plunge from
quarterback Omar Kharroub and a
14-yard scoring strike from
SPORTS
there, as far as the amount of trash that
you talk. It’s good entertainment. It’s
fun. But when I step on the field, it’s
not motivating for me to stop a guy
because he’s talking trash.”
There are rules
Looks, abilities and speech are all
fair game. Just one rule: Mothers are
off limits.
“I don’t talk about anyone’s mom,”
Giants safety Deon Grant said.
“That’s personal. That’s personal
when you talk about the moms and
wives and kids. That has nothing to do
with football.”
Many players still go at opponents
through the media, just like the old
days. Revis called Randy Moss a
“slouch” in January and said he put
“his foot on the brake” the last time
the Jets played against him. Should be
fun when Moss, now with the
Vikings, plays Revis and the Jets on
Monday night — the second time in
less than a month they have met.
A day after Houston’s 30-27 over-
time win over Washington, Redskins
cornerback DeAngelo Hall said he
should’ve been assigned to cover
Andre Johnson, who caught a 34-yard
touchdown pass from Matt Schaub to
tie the game in the fourth quarter.
“I gave him a lot of props during the
game,” Hall said. “During the game,
he didn’t scare me. He didn’t do any-
thing that looked spectacular. He did-
n’t do anything to make me feel like
he was the best.”
Uh-oh.
“I don’t really get caught up in that,

time expired in the first half.
Hillsdale got on the board follow-
ing its first drive of the third quarter.
After forcing an El Camino punt, the
Knights took over at their own 40
and drove 60 yards on 10 plays, with
Tyler Kelly scoring on an electrify-
ing 25-yard run, cutting El Camino’s
lead to 14-7.
The Colts got the score right back,
driving 80 yards on 11 plays on their
ensuing possession. The Colts gave
the Knights a healthy dose of Huey,
who had 30 yards rushing on the
drive. But they also gave Hillsdale a
taste of D.J. Peluso, who also had a

left in our careers,” Johnson said a few
days later. “I’m pretty sure we’ll meet
some time again, and if he wants to
play me one-on-one the whole game,
he can talk to his coach about it, and
have his coach put him out there to
play me one-on-one. Then, we’ll go at
it and see what happens.”
To talk or not to talk?
Detroit center Dominic Raiola has a
long trash-talking history with Green
Bay linebacker Nick Barnett.
“It’s competitive,” he said. “At first,
I just didn’t like him. When you lose
as much as we do, you don’t really
like anybody.”
Added Lions offensive tackle Jeff
Backus: “A lot of the stuff Dom says
is funny. It’s so off the wall.”
So, what of the conversations
between Raiola and Barnett could be
printed?
“Nothing,” Raiola said. “Seriously.
I don’t think there’s a lot said that you
could print.”
Pryce, a 14-year veteran, will just
let everyone else yap while he’s play-
ing — and being entertained.
“It’s too hard to breathe and I don’t
want to waste any energy, not an
ounce of energy talking to anybody,”
Pryce said, laughing. “The last thing I
need is to tell some guy that he’s not
worth anything and now he’s coming

don’t need that problem. I’m good,
thank you very much.”
strong effort, finishing with 71 yards
on 11 carries for the day. On first
down at the 20, Peluso took a hand-
off and went 25 yards. He also added
runs of 2 and 5 yards before cashing
in on a 2-yard run, in which he pow-
ered into the end zone from the 1-
yard line.
An interception ended Hillsdale’s
next drive, while El Camino was
forced to punt from midfield on its
next possession.
With 7:11 remaining, the Knights
finally kicked their big-play offense
into gear. Starting from their own
35, the Knights needed just three
plays to find pay dirt. After picking

SHARKS
Continued from page 1
It’s the third straight year that
NHL teams have played in the
Swedish capital, and there were a
mixture of jerseys from teams
across the league among the near-
sellout crowd of 13,500 at the
Globen Arena.
Much of the action happened in
the frantic first period. And the
intensity of the regular season trav-
eled across the ocean, with a couple
of fights that had the fans on the
edges of their seats yelling and
cheering.
The Sharks topped the Western
Conference with 113 points last sea-
son, but their playoff run end in the
conference finals when they were
swept by Chicago.
It was Columbus coach Scott
Arniel’s first game in charge of the
team.
“We did lots of good things,”
Arniel said. “Five on five I really
liked the way we played. We gave
up on goals-scoring chance in the
third period and they scored their
goal.”
Former Vancouver captain and
Swedish star Markus Naslund
received a standing ovation and the
loudest cheers of the evening when
he dropped the puck during a cere-
monial faceoff.
up an initial first down, Anthony
Huni took an inside handoff and,
after weaving his way past the line
of scrimmage, found a hole and
exploded for a 52-yard score.
Huni is the epitome of the
Knights’ big-play offense but,
despite that 52-yard run and his 7-
yard scoring catch that completed a
three-play, 44-yard drive, Huni was
held in relative check. He only
touched the ball five times, all in the
second half.
“We were trying to get the ball to
him, but we couldn’t pass the ball,”
Parodi said. “We shot ourselves in
the foot too many times.”

Around the world
Official: North Koreans will follow Kim Jong Un
PYONGYANG, North Korea — A top official told APTN
on Friday that North Koreans will be honored to follow the
youngest son of Kim Jong Il as the third-
generation leader of the communist
nation.
The remarks were the first official com-
ment about the future of Kim Jong Un,
who just last week made his public debut.
Yang Hyong Sop, a top official in North
Korea’s ruling Workers’ Party, referred to
the 20-something Kim as “the young gen-
Kim Jong Un eral” during an exclusive interview with
APTN.
“Our people take pride in the fact that they are blessed with
great leaders from generation to generation,” Yang said.
“Our people are honored to serve the great President Kim Il
Sung and the great leader Kim Jong Il,” he added. “Now we
also have the honor of serving young Gen. Kim Jong Un.”
Toxicity of Hungary’s red sludge flow drops
KOLONTAR, Hungary — The concentration of toxic
heavy metals where Hungary’s massive red sludge spill
entered the Danube has dropped to the level allowed in
drinking water, authorities said Friday, easing fears that
Europe’s second longest river would be significantly pollut-
ed.
Monday’s reservoir break at an alumina plant dumped up
to 700,000 cubic meters (184 million gallons) of sludge onto
three villages, government officials said, not much less in a
few hours than the 200 million gallons the blown-out BP oil
well gushed into the Gulf of Mexico over several months.
NATION/WORLD
Civil War site to be unearthed
By Jim Suhr
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ST. LOUIS — One of the nation’s
leading battlefield archaeologists fanned
out with volunteers in central Missouri
Friday in hopes of pinpointing the exact
spot of a Civil War battle that ended one
of the divisive war’s most famous and
longest raids.
Those involved say the search could
be a boon for Missouri’s quest to draw in
Civil War buffs as the 150th anniversary
of the divisive conflict between the
North and South fast approaches. Led by
forensic archaeologist Doug Scott, they
hope to find bullets, pieces of horse har-
nesses and other evidence from the 1863
Battle of Marshall — a skirmish that
happened 147 years ago next
Wednesday.
Missouri’s place in the war is undeni-
able: The state trails only Virginia and
Tennessee in the number of Civil War
battles fought. Those states, along with
Pennsylvania, have been savvy in erect-
ing battlefield monuments that lure thou-
sands of visitors each year, boosting
their tourism revenues.
As anniversary observances of the war
loom, “every year is going to be a matter
“...Every year is going to be a matter of
interest,we hope,to neighbors from other states ...”
— Greg Wolk,president of Missouri’s Civil War Heritage Foundation
of interest, we hope, to neighbors from
other states” when it comes to the Battle
of Marshall, said Greg Wolk, president
of Missouri’s Civil War Heritage
Foundation, one of the sponsors of the
dig expected to extend into the weekend.
“Many people don’t realize the extent
we had a war here in Missouri,” he
added.
That’s something he hopes historians
can rectify with the search of property
near Marshall, the 12,400-resident
Saline County seat where charming,
ornate Victorian homes harken back to
the period when federal forces confront-
ed Confederate ones just north of town
on Oct. 13, 1863.
Information gleaned from Scott’s
efforts may eventually be used to devel-
op a walking tour of the site for tourists.
The skirmish generally is remembered
as the culminating event of Confederate
Col. Joseph Shelby’s famed raids into
Missouri with 1,200 horseback soldiers.
During a day marked by aggressive
charges back and forth, with both sides
THE DAILY JOURNAL
using timber and ravines for cover,
Union Gen. Egbert Brown and his 1,800
troops managed to divide and eventually
turn back Shelby’s men, sending them
galloping back into Arkansas with
Brown’s troops in hot pursuit.
Because of the natural cover, casual-
ties were minimal, with a handful of
Confederate deaths and none on the
Union side, according to James Denny,
a retired Missouri Department of
Natural Resources historian who
detailed the battle in a historical abstract
last decade.
Along with the head-high, thick brush
that shielded the combatants from the
flying bullets, “probably no one really
wanted very badly to get killed,” Denny
said Friday from his home near
Jamestown. “In this case, they just didn’t
get close enough to see the whites of
their eyes to do any real damage, and
both sides were pretty happy with that.
All (Brown and the Union) wanted to do
was get Shelby out of the state, and they
did that.”

Film sweetly reveals young Lennon
By David Germain
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
We’re so used to thinking of the Beatles and
John Lennon as finished products: the band
broken up 40 years ago, Lennon shot dead 10
years later; the epic story now hallowed, prac-
tically consecrated into marble.
How refreshing, then, to go back before the
beginning with “Nowhere Boy” and see
Lennon as a brilliant brat. A lusty, angry,
quixotic, defiant, naive and yearning kid,
without all the baggage that musical canoniza-
tion placed on the guy’s shoulders.

A new year for
Student News
By Philip Dimaano
W
elcome to this year’s weekly
Student News column. I am cer-
tainly excited to get the chance to
write for the Daily Journal along with my
friend and fellow columnist Jeremy Venook.
Before we get under way, I would like to first
give some background on Jeremy and myself.
Being the co-editor-in-
chief of the Aragon
Outlook or any other stu-
dent publication brings its
own unique set of chal-
lenges and rewards. I
have the chance to work
with some of the most
capable and talented
group of students to cre-
ate a project that the Philip Dimaano
entire school and commu-
nity gets to enjoy.
I started out as a fea-
tures writer for the
Outlook my sophomore
year with an anxious
mindset and a whole lot
to learn. As the year pro-
gressed, I saw my jour-
nalism skills improve dra-
matically as I learned Jeremy Venook
from the editors and their
feedback. After some initial hesitation, I
decided to apply as a features editor my jun-
ior year and I regard that decision to be one
of the most pivotal ones I will ever make in
high school. The bonds you make and the
experiences you share with your fellow edi-
tors are simply not possible in any other type
of classroom setting. While many of the pre-
vious editors are discovering their newfound
independence in college, I strive to bring the
experience and lessons I learned to the new
editor team in the coming months.
Outside of journalism, I am heavily
involved in the music department at Aragon
High School. Having played saxophone since
elementary school, I have worked my way up
to become first alto saxophone in wind
ensemble and lead alto saxophone in jazz
ensemble. We will be playing at a multitude
of venues throughout the year including the
Folsom Jazz Festival and Disneyland. For my
senior year, I also decided to try my hand at
vocal performing and musical theater becom-
ing one of the newest members of the cham-
ber choir and fall musical.
In the coming months, I wish to show the
readers of the Daily Journal a more inquisi-
tive and mature perspective of the world from
the teenage mind. There seem to be numer-
ous issues in our society today that may or

DAILY JOURNAL SENIOR CORRESPONDENT
Maria Callas — A Woman, a Voice, a Myth. More than 35
years after her last performance in San Francisco, Bay Area
fans have a unique opportunity to understand and experi-
ence the life of Maria Callas by viewing a comprehensive
collection of her belongings and recordings.
Under the auspices of Consul General of Italy Fabrizio
Marcelli and Consul General of Greece Ioannis Andreades,
the Italian Cultural Institute of San Francisco presents a
sumptuous exhibition of Maria Callas’ historic stage cos-
tumes, stunning jewels, rare documents, books, letters and
photographs on loan from the Hellenic Parliament
Foundation. The exhibition is a joint installation by
Norwegian interior designer Terje Arnesen and Italian
architect Antonio Pio Saracino.
At the exhibition’s Sept. 23 Opening Gala, Mr. Bruno
Tosi, President of the Associazione Maria Callas and author
of “The Young Maria Callas,” shared his passion and per-
sonal knowledge of the original Diva. The soprano Felicia
Bongiovanni performed a tribute to Callas, accompanied on
the piano by Ian Scarfe of the San Francisco Conservatory
of Music. The performance comprised some of the most
famous arias of La Divina’s repertoire: “Vissi d’arte, vissi
d’amore” from Tosca by G. Puccini, “Casta Diva” from
Norma by V. Bellini and “Sempre libera” from La Traviata
by G.Verdi.
The Honorary Committee for the opening of this exhibi-
tion included Ambassador of Italy to the U.S. Hon. Giulio

Heigl, Duhamel in ‘Life as We Know It’
By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Katherine Heigl has again been saddled
with an unexpected baby, only this time, no
one is going to call her parenting mate a
schlub.
Unlike Heigl’s “Knocked Up” co-star, Seth
Rogen, Josh Duhamel is emphatically in her
league. In “Life as We Know It,” they have a
good and believable chemistry as opposites
pushed together through fate.
Both have handsome, movie-star presence
and keep the film entertaining, even though its
familiar story passes with nothing to distin-
guish itself from the many other similarly
plotted movies and sitcoms.
Heigl (”27 Dresses,” TV’s “Grey’s
Anatomy”) plays Holly Berenson, a well-
dressed professional — the kind of character
that seems to be her specialty. As Eric Messer,
Duhamel (“Transformers,” TV’s “Las Vegas”)
is also a gender stereotype: the immature,
promiscuous jock.
After a disastrous blind date set up by their
mutual friends (Christina Hendricks, Hayes
MacArthur), Holly and Messer (as he’s
called) settle into years of mutual annoyance,
hardly tolerating each other as fellow godpar-
ents at weddings and birthdays.
When their friends die in a car accident,
Holly and Messer are named as guardians to
their baby girl. In the kind of absurd twist that
only happens in romantic comedies, they

tered the young Lennon finally occurs, it’s a
shock to the audience, though even passing
Beatles fans know it’s coming.
At times an eerie lookalike, Aaron
Johnson (star of this year’s superhero come-
dy “Kick-Ass”) makes a wonderful teen
John, capturing a mischievous rebel and a
pained youth torn between the stern aunt
who raised him and the sparkling mother
who inspired him.
“Nowhere Boy” came out a year ago in
Britain, where it deservedly brought British
Academy Awards nominations for Kristin
Scott Thomas as Lennon’s Aunt Mimi and
Anne-Marie Duff as his mom, Julia.
The film opens in the United States the
day before what would have been Lennon’s
70th birthday, and his widow, Yoko Ono, has
been supportive, calling it “very truthful.”
McCartney has voiced some gripes about the
movie’s accuracy, and while they quibbled
about details, four other members of
Lennon’s early band — the Quarrymen —
offered gracious testimonials in the film’s
press materials, saying it caught the essence
of their pal and the 1950s Liverpool where

Jeremy is a senior at San Mateo High
School and coming to the end of his high
school days. But he’s staying in the middle
of a lot of activities. Between school, theater,
journalism and, of course, those dreaded col-
lege applications, Jeremy’s got a lot on his
plate over the next few months before he can
give too much time to senioritis.
If you’ve come to the shows at San Mateo
over the past few years, you’ve probably
seen Jeremy on stage. Theater, especially
musical theater, is one of his favorite activi-
ties and he’s also an avid dancer. Jeremy is
currently in rehearsal for the school’s
upcoming production of The 25th Annual
Putnam County Spelling Bee, where he’ll be
playing the vice principal. The show is Nov.

After “Knocked Up,” Heigl famously won-
dered if the film was sexist and painted
women as humorless. But in “Life as We
Know It,” she fails badly in the scenes in
which she’s given room to be funny, particu-
larly one where she’s drunk when a case
worker (Sarah Burns) visits.
Melissa McCarthy, as a polite but blunt
neighbor, and Burns, seemingly mousy but
also very direct, show far better comedic
chops in supporting roles.
Heigl is still a pleasure to watch, though.
She has a knack for smart, anxious characters,
and one suspects she’ll eventually find the
right romantic comedy that properly showcas-
es her talents without hoisting motherhood on
her.
It’s also a familiar genre to Duhamel, a for-
mer model whose tall, muscular build and
proclivity for baseball caps make him a natu-
ral stand-in for the ESPN-addled male. He has
the good sense not to depend too much on his
good looks.

Sightseeing in New York,two wheels at at time

By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — In his essay “Taming the
Bicycle,” Mark Twain cautiously recommended
bicycling: “You will not regret it, if you live.”
That has always gone doubly for biking in
New York.
But the city has undergone a two-wheeled
makeover. In the last four years, the New York
City Department of Transportation has added
more than 200 miles of bikes lanes. The num-
ber of cyclists has increased 80 percent in the
past decade. The city’s goal is 1,800 miles of
total bike lanes by 2030.
Earlier this year, National Geographic
Traveler magazine did something that might
once have been unthinkable: It put New York on
a list of the most bike-friendly cities in the
country, alongside Portland, Ore.
While biking has exploded for New Yorkers,
tourists are quietly following. It is, after all, a
great way to experience a new place: Faster
than walking so you can cover a lot of ground,
but far closer to your surroundings than a car.
In New York, it can be dizzying: rolling past
Washington Square Park one moment, breezing
along the Hudson the next. In a city where free-
dom of movement can often feel locked in
gridlock, on a bike, one sails through the
throngs.
Musician and New Yorker David Byrne
wrote in his 2009 book “Bicycle Diaries” that
riding through a city “is like navigating the col-
lective neural pathways of some vast global
mind.”
The “neural pathways” of New York, though,
are often strewn with potholes, aggressive driv-
ers, unobservant pedestrians and — often the
worst of all — pushy cyclists. New York has
been significantly tamed when it comes to bik-
ing, but it’s not exactly Amsterdam.
Nevertheless, tourists, having long endured
double-decker buses and plodding ferries, are
understandably looking for a new vantage

point. A number of tours have sprung up and
found visitors willing to strap on a helmet.
“A bus tour just did not hold the same appeal
to me — it’s too passive,” said Michelle
Wright, 45, of Graham, N.C.
Recently, Wright and her two kids — a 15-
year-old daughter and a 12-year-old son — did
a tour of the Brooklyn Bridge and along the
Hudson River through Bike and Roll NYC.
The company has several locations for renting
bikes, including Pier 84, near 12th Avenue and
43rd Street; Battery Park, and Central Park at
Columbus Circle. The Pier 84 location pro-
vides easy access to the bike path along the
city’s relatively new but much-cherished
Hudson River Greenway, which runs along the
West Side of Manhattan from Battery Park at
the southern tip to Dyckman
Street on the northern tip.
Bike and Roll NYC tours
($40-50, two to three hours)
depart daily; popular routes
include Central Park and the
Brooklyn Bridge. The company
is listed among sightseeing choices on dis-
counted visitor passes like the Explorer Pass.
“I felt very safe,” said Wright. “More often
than not, we were on a designated greenway.
We felt the most in danger from the manic bik-
ers on the Brooklyn Bridge.”
The tour guide, too, made Wright feel like
she was “sneaking in a little bit of historical
sightseeing on my kids without them realizing
it.” A bike rental, a helmet and water were
included, as is the case with most tours.
Gary Deliz, 26, visited New York earlier this
year with his girlfriend. They chose a Central
Park tour, thinking they could save a little time
on their itinerary.
“If you didn’t do the tour, you wouldn’t
know where to start,” said Deliz of Central
Park. “It’s so big!”
There are other tour companies, too, such as
the Central Park Bike Tour, with tours general-
ly around $50-65. In addition to its Central
Park route, the company also offers a Harlem
tour, a nighttime tour and an architecture-
focused tour. Some of the more arduous rides

are only for those 18 and older.
More distinctive tours are given by Bike the
Big Apple. Their expeditions generally cost
around $90, but they’re longer (approximately
six hours). They include an “Ethnic Apple”
tour through multiple boroughs, a Friday
nightlife tour and tours before and after the
New York marathon — an “urban mosaic”
tour and a “mellow-out/recovery” tour,
respectively. They’re also doing a special
Halloween “Tour de Frights.”
Just note that most bike tour and rental
companies do less business in late fall and
winter than in the warmer months, so call
ahead to check on schedules.
Becky Greenberg, 65, came from St.
Augustine, Fla., with her 79-year-old hus-
band. They’ve spent many summers biking on
Cape Cod, which got them accustomed to
“lovely, twisting bike paths.”
They did a Brooklyn Bridge tour and found
it to be “such an adventure.”
“Congestion is a friend to bikers,”
Greenberg said of the traffic they sped past.
Tours are a good option for visitors who are
nervous about biking without a guide and
those looking for maximum safety. But a
bicycle, after all, is built for one, and many
may prefer to explore on their own.
Both Central Park and the Hudson River
Greenway offer straightforward routes that
are hard to get lost on. You might want to plan
on some stops, too, like a drink at the Boat
Basin Cafe on West 79th Street along the
Hudson, or to relax in Sheep Meadow in
Central Park.

process should begin much earlier.

BUDGET
Continued from page 1
to receive. Among those assumptions is
$5.4 billion in new federal funding,
which is $4 billion more than the state
has received so far this year and $2 bil-
lion more than Schwarzenegger project-
ed in the revised budget proposal he
released in May. Most of the money has
not been authorized by Congress, which
could change into Republican hands in
November.
The heavy reliance on assumed feder-
al money drew criticism from California
Republican Rep. Darrell Issa who called
California’s budget “an embarrassment.”
“It’s full of false assumptions and
failed gimmicks,” Issa, R-Vista, said in
statement.
Schwarzenegger, a Republican, and
state lawmakers acknowledge there are
no guarantees the state will collect that
much more from the federal govern-
ment.
In crafting their tardy budget deal, the
governor and the legislative leaders from
the Assembly and Senate also assumed
the state will take in $1.4 billion in addi-
tional tax revenue if the economy
improves and will net $1.2 billion from
selling 11 state properties, even though
the governor’s original projection said
the sale would net $660 million.
At the same time, several revenue
streams are drying up.
The federal stimulus program is about
to end and temporary tax and fee
increases the governor and Legislature
approved last year will expire in the
coming year. That will mean less rev-
enue to cover education and health care
spending commitments.
The state stands to lose about $8 bil-
lion when the temporary increases in the
vehicle license fee, and sales and income
taxes expire July 1, said Sen. Denise
Ducheny, D-San Diego, chairwoman of
the Senate budget committee.
“This budget will have a $10 billion
deficit next year,” said state Sen. Jeff
Denham of Merced, a candidate for a
Central Valley congressional seat who
particularly criticized the budget’s
reliance on extra federal money. “I don’t
expect to see any more bailouts next
year. And I certainly don’t expect to see
a $5 billion bailout for California.”
One of the gubernatorial candidates
running to replace Schwarzenegger will
inherit the ongoing deficit. Democrat
Jerry Brown’s spokesman Sterling
Clifford said Brown will bring all sides
together “from the very beginning to
reach real solutions,” while Republican
Meg Whitman’s spokesman Darrel Ng
said “Californians deserve a strong
leader who is willing to make the tough
decisions.”
Both candidates addressed the state’s
budgeting during their first debate last
month at the University of California,
Davis, agreeing that the negotiation
Whitman also advocated for a two-
year budgeting cycle, while Brown said
he would authorize an 18 percent pay cut
for the governor’s office and the
Legislature.
At a news conference Friday,
Schwarzenegger pointed to the rainy day
fund and changes to the pension system
that were part of the budget at his insis-
tence.
“I’m proud that we used this crisis as
an opportunity to pass major reforms
that would help ensure we will never
have to suffer through a crisis like this
again,” he said.
Lawmakers agreed to ask voters in
2012 to approve a larger rainy day fund
to build a cash reserve for future eco-
nomic downturns. They also agreed to
higher retirement ages and increased
pension contributions from state
employees.
Schwarzenegger said Friday he would
use his veto power to cut an additional
$965 million. Advocates called on him
to protect health and human service pro-
grams for seniors, children and the dis-
abled, as well as funding for domestic
violence shelters.
It’s unclear whether the state will have
to issue IOUs or cut off funding for road
and infrastructure projects. California
had been without a budget since July 1,
the start of the current fiscal year, which
has prompted the state stop to paying
thousands of contractors and some state
employees.
The budget authorized the state treas-
urer to defer $5.5 billion in payments to
schools and social services until the trea-
surer’s office can obtain short-term
loans, a process that state typically
undertakes until the majority of tax rev-
enue arrives in the spring. It has not had
the authority to get those short-term
loans without an approved budget.

SCHOOL
Continued from page 1
turned down by city officials once more.
Now the district is studying private land
options for a future school site.
“We understand Foster City. We have
an obligation to fully explore the possi-
bilities,” said board Vice President Mark
Hudak.
This site was the ideal location for the
district, he said. Now that there is a
definitive answer, the district needs to
focus on the next best possibility: private
land, he said.
Foster City’s strong stance against
using public land — like the parcel or a
park — has remained since the district
began searching for a suitable location.
That didn’t change when the district
asked once more for access to land in
September.
“The City Council has determined that
the sale or lease by the district or a joint
use agreement between the city and dis-
trict for an elementary school on four to
six acres of the 15-acre site adjacent to
the government center is not in the best
interest of the city,” Mayor Rick Wykoff
wrote in a Sept. 21 letter to the district.
“The City Council has determined that the sale
or lease by the district or a joint use agreement
between the city and district for an
elementary school on four to six acres of the
15-acre site adjacent to the government
center is not in the best interest of the city.”
“... The City Council has determined
that a mixed-use development on the
subject property, consisting of senior
housing, neighborhood retail use and
open space would represent the highest
and best use of the property.”
Wykoff went on to say the council
would not discuss the proposal anymore.
Population in Foster City is growing
with a projected 2,303 students in the
2012-13 school year, according to a staff
report. That’s an increase of 274 chil-
dren since the 2008-09 school year. The
growth will increase to 385 students by
2013-14. While it is growing, the
increase has slowed. San Mateo-Foster
City has been able to manage its enroll-
ment by increasing class sizes, a move
temporarily allowed by the state through
the 2011-12 school year.
Purchasing land by January is the first
— Foster City Mayor Rick Wykoff
step to a new campus in the most recent
time line. Ultimately, the new school is
slated to be finished and ready for stu-
dents in January 2014.
Finding land has proved the hardest
step as residents are opposed to losing
open space. The district has publicly
expressed concerns that private land
would be too costly. Last year, the dis-
trict announced the new school may be
located outside Foster City, in San
Mateo.
In February, Pacific Retirement
Services returned about $600,000 in
deposits to families who signed up to
live in the Mirabella retirement commu-
nity proposed to be built on 11 acres of
land adjacent to the Foster City Civic
Center. Canceling the development
prompted the district to request access to
the land again.

Saturday, Oct. 9, 2010
It is quite likely that several ambitious goals might occupy
your mind in the near future. However, it will be important
that you don’t allow size to be a criterion as to what you do
and what you abandon. Follow good judgment.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) - It can be an asset to know when
to be quiet and when to be assertive, without carrying either
to extremes. You’ll get an opportunity to show if you under-
stand when each should be applied.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) - Take care not to overreact if
and when things don’t go your way. People are used to your
easygoing ways and won’t know how to react to an aggres-
sive you.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) - Embers of emotion
are be smoldering within you, like crumbs at the bottom of
a toaster oven. Because you’re not used to being in such a
state, you must be careful not to trigger any unsightly reac-
tion.
what is most important to you, and what holds the most
potential for bearing sweet, sweet fruit.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) - Now is the time to meet with
those who can help you resolve a problem concerning your
commercial affairs. Chances are, people will be more reason-
able and accommodating.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) - Although you usually prefer
to work alone, you’ll be far more effective working in unison
with others. Don’t be too quick to turn down any offer of
teaming up with co-workers.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) - Get all those neglected chores
out of the way, if you have a chance of doing so. The good
that working with a clean slate will do for you down the line
cannot be measured in time and money, only in relief.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) - Although generally you might
not be much of a risk-taker, it might be worth it if conditions
dictate that you throw caution to the wind. Sometimes it pays
to be bold, robust and flavorful.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) - Understand that what is
of significance to you might not be as important to the friends
you’ll be hanging with. A bit of give-and-take will need to
take place.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) - Listen to what others have
to say, but don’t discount your own thinking as to how certain
collective goals can be achieved. Morsels of good lurk in what
each has to say.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) - To your credit, you won’t
waste time with the small stuff. You’ll spend your time on
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) - Both walking softly and carrying a
big stick might be called for when dealing with a tempera-
mental family member. Be patient with this person’s problem,
but firm about not letting it get out of control.
Previous
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) - To your credit, you’ll be quite
effective in situations that could easily spin into chaos. Sudoku
Because you’ll know when to speak up and when not to
shake the shack, you’ll get things resolved quite nicely. answers

Chinese dissident Liu wins Nobel Peace Prize
By Charles Hutzler and Karl Ritter
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BEIJING — China has long wanted a
Nobel prize. Now that it has one, its lead-
ers are furious.
The Nobel committee awarded its peace
prize to imprisoned democracy campaign-
er Liu Xiaobo on Friday, lending encour-
agement to China’s dissident community
and sending a rebuke to the authoritarian
government, which sharply condemned
the award.
In naming Liu, the Norwegian-based
committee honored his more than two
decades of advocacy for human rights and
peaceful democratic change — from the
Tiananmen Square demonstrations in
1989 to a manifesto for political reform
that he co-authored in 2008 and which led
to his latest jail term.
President Barack Obama, last year’s
peace prize winner, called for Liu’s imme-
diate release.
Anticipating the award, Chinese cir-
cumvented Internet controls and called
friends overseas to learn the news.
Supporters and friends gathered outside
Liu’s central Beijing apartment, where his
wife was kept inside by police. At a park,
a civil rights lawyer, a retired official-
turned-blogger and a dozen other people
cheered and waved placards saying “Long
Live Freedom of Speech.” The demon-
strators were later taken away by police.
A buzz of congratulations coursed
through Chinese instant messaging sites
before censors scrubbed postings and
blocked cell phone text messages that con-
tained the characters for Liu’s name. Exiled
WORLD THE DAILY JOURNAL
Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama,
who won the prize in 1989, joined Obama
and other leaders in congratulating Liu.
“Last year, I noted that so many others
who have received the award had sacri-
ficed so much more than I,” Obama said.
“That list now includes Mr. Liu, who has
sacrificed his freedom for his beliefs.”
The president praised China for its stun-
ning 30 years of transformative economic
growth. “But this award reminds us that
political reform has not kept pace, and that
the basic human rights of every man,
woman and child must be respected,”
Obama said.
