Thought for the Day

1989Fourteen women were shot to death at

the University of Montreal’s school of 

engineering by a man who then took hisown life.

In 1790, Congress moved to Philadelphia from New York.In 1884, Army engineers completed construction of the

Washington Monument by setting an aluminum capstone atopthe obelisk.

In 1889, Jefferson Davis, the first and only president of theConfederate States of America, died in New Orleans.

In 1907, the worst mining disaster in U.S. history occurredas 362 men and boys died in a coal mine explosion inMonongah, W.Va.

In 1917, some 2,000 people died when an explosives-ladenFrench cargo ship collided with a Norwegian vessel at the har-bor in Halifax, Nova Scotia, setting off a blast that devastatedthe city.

In 1922, the Irish Free State came into being under terms of the Anglo-Irish Treaty.

In 1947, Everglades National Park in Florida was dedicated

by President Harry S. Truman.In 1957, America’s first attempt at putting a satellite into

orbit failed as Vanguard TV3 rose about four feet off a CapeCanaveral launch pad before crashing down and exploding.

In 1969, a free concert by The Rolling Stones at theAltamont Speedway in Alameda County, Calif., was marred bythe deaths of four people, including one who was stabbed by aHell’s Angel.

Ten years ago: Florida Republican leaders announced theLegislature would convene in special session to appoint its ownslate of electors in the state’s contested presidential race;Democrats denounced the idea. U.S. businessman EdmondPope was sentenced to 20 years imprisonment by a Moscowcourt for espionage; however, Pope was pardoned by RussianPresident Vladimir Putin and released eight days after his sen-tencing. Actor Werner Klemperer died in New York at age 80.

“Each and every one of us has one obligation, during the bewil-dered days of our pilgrimage here: the saving of his own soul,

and secondarily and incidentally thereby affecting for good suchother souls as come under our influence.”

People in the newsWinfrey,McCartney in DCfor Kennedy Center Honors

WASHINGTON — When The Beatleswere storming America, Oprah Winfreyhad the band’s poster on her bedroomwall,Merle Haggard was free from prison,Jerry Herman was making Broadway singand Bill T. Jones was not yet a dancer butgrowing up in a migrant labor camp.

Last night, these leading artists who fol-lowed divergent paths since the 1960s  joined Paul McCartney to receive theKennedy Center Honors. They heard acco-lades from President Barack Obama andstars who performed as part of the nation’stop prize for those who define U.S. culturethrough the arts.

Secretary of State Hillary RodhamClinton hosted a dinner Saturday for thehonorees, along with visiting celebrities,including Julia Roberts, Claire Danes,Steven Tyler from Aerosmith, and GwenStefani and her band, No Doubt. Theguests also included veteran entertainersCarol Channing, Angela Lansbury andSidney Poitier.

Clinton marveled at the diverse “genresand generations” of artists.

“I am writing a cable about it, which I’msure you’ll find soon on your closest web-site,” she joked after a week of dealingwith fallout from the WikiLeaks release of confidential diplomatic dispatches.

She also confessedto “several waves of teen girl hysteria”over The Beatles dur-ing her youth. Clintonsaid McCartney’s lifehad connected peoplearound the world.

The former Beatle,making his secondvisit to Washington

this year for a culture award, said theadmiration is mutual. In June, he won theGershwin Prize for Popular Song from theLibrary of Congress.

“You know, great things just come inbundles,” he said. “I am a big fan of thispresident, and I think he’s a great man

whose got some dif ficulties. ... I’m veryhonored to be with him and his family,and I’m also a big fan of Hillary’s, too.”

Since the 1960s, the new KennedyCenter honorees have helped define tele-vision, dance, theater and music.

For Winfrey, the prize comes during the25th and final season of her talk show and  just before she launches her new cablenetwork, OWN, on Jan. 1. After herWashington visit, she will take about 300members of her audience to Australia fora vacation over the holidays.

“You know what’s interesting is shespends her life celebrating others, butwhen it comes time for her, she’s very

reluctant really,” Winfrey’s best friendGayle King told The Associated Press.

King said it was a fitting tribute forWinfrey as a communicator, actress, pro-ducer and humanitarian.

“They’re recognizing her whole bodyof work,” King said. “She’s not just a talkshow host.”

Performers who will honor Winfrey andthe others will be a surprise until theyappear on stage Sunday night, butWinfrey has admitted she doesn’t like sur-prises.

At the State Department, the ornateBenjamin Franklin room was a swirl of Hollywood, Nashville, New York andWashington power players, includingPresident Bill Clinton.

Roberts said it was both exciting andnerve wracking. She said the mix of artand politics “can converge in a very inter-esting way, so when it’s done right, it’sreally exciting.”

After the honors were announced inSeptember, Jones, the son of potato pick-ers, said he could recall dreaming of bigthings as a 9-year-old boy in upstate NewYork.

He went on to create the Bill T.Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company in1982 after college with his late partnerArnie Zane. His work has tackled racism,AIDS and other tough issues, sometimessparking outrage.

The area south of Islais Creek Channel(Third Street Drawbridge) was once a4,446-acre Mexican land grant in

1839 to Jose Cornelio de Bernal. It was namedRincon de las Salinas y Portrero Viejo (Placeof the Salt Works and old Pasture) and hadbeen used for the grazing of cows of MissionDolores that roamed the area since Spanishdays. It had remained undeveloped except fora few shacks that cattle tenders used. In thelate 1840s, two early land developers, Dr.John Townsend and Corneille de Boom, con-vinced Bernal to sell his land to develop thearea. Robert Hunter and his brother Phillipbecame agents for Bernal but the venturefailed to become successful. Robert andPhillip stayed on and ran a dairy on the land

they purchased around Grif fi

th and Oakdaleavenues. Many feel that the point, HuntersPoint, was named for these brothers.

The San Bruno Toll Road (San BrunoAvenue) had been constructed in the late1850s to the west of Hunters Point and afford-ed a means of transportation of cows from theMiller and Lux Ranch in what was to become“South San Francisco.” Ironically, the areaaround Bayview was named “South SanFrancisco” in the 1800s but this name use wasdiscouraged when Bayview became the desig-nated name in 1909 when a commission in

San Francisco was installed to change namesof streets to clear up the confusion of identicalor similar names that abounded in the city.

Miller and Lux began using the area whenslaughterhouses closer to downtown SanFrancisco were ordered to move further southfrom the central populated area (Rincon Hill)due to the odor and sights they generated.Roth’s and Blum’s slaughterhouse at 1490Fairfax Ave. was one of the first slaughter-houses to be built in the Bayview area. By this

time, Railroad Street (later Third Street —built across Mission Bay) offered a solution totransportation to the area. Miller and Lux builta slaughterhouse to service their vast cattleempire. The four main slaughterhouses in thearea that harbored 18 slaughterhouses were:Miller and Lux; James Allan and Son; the H.Moffatt Company; and J. G. Johnson. Most of the slaughterhouses were built over pilings on

Butcher Town (in San Francisco’s Bayview)

By Heather MurtaghDAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Just over 2,300 people are gathering onlineto swap updates, benefit ideas and generalinformation about the Glenview neighbor-hood on Facebook through a page called Help

San Bruno Fire Victims.What began as a forum drawing strangers toa cause that garnered worldwide attentionnow has 2,334 friends all with one goal —remembering what happened Sept. 9 when anatural gas line exploded in San Brunodestroying countless homes and killing eightpeople. Strangely, the site wasn’t started bysomeone who grew up in The City With aHeart or even lives there.

Twelve-year-old Angelo Tomassi, a seventhgrade student who lives in Fremont, waswatching the news with his parents thatSeptember night while doing homework.

“We saw the news and I was devastated,” hesaid. Angelo was upset to think of all the peo-ple who were going to be affected.

Fifteen minutes later he was online startinghis Facebook page.

“There’s a lot of things people make pagesfor. So many people use Facebook. ... I want-ed to raise awareness and help people getback what they lost,” he said, adding he fig-ured it could be a place for his friends andmaybe his mom to discuss what was going on.

Angelo, who has about 200 friends onFacebook, ended up connecting with manymore.

The simple act has created and supportedother acts of kindness. Angelo’s school raisedabout $100 for the effort. It was online thatAngelo learned about Kenn Lipke, who wascollecting business cards for a 4-year-old whohad lost his collection because of the explo-sion. Those affected post updates about theirfamily — like one person returning home intime to have Thanksgiving in the neighbor-hood that’s forever changed.

Angelo’s mom, Angela, isn’t sure why herson is so intent on helping others. She thoughtit could be that the family overcame a firethemselves, although it was before Angelowas born.

She wasn’t surprised when he wanted to

create a Facebook page. And while she helpswith site updates, she promised her son not tomake material changes to the information heposted originally, even if there are grammati-cal errors.

“It’s pretty amazing,” Angela said, notinghow quickly it worked to bring people togeth-er.

Donation suggestions would come in fromthe East Bay, but people didn’t have a way to

get it to the Tomassi family business, FinishLine Towing in Santa Clara. A simple onlinerequest found a commuter who was willing todo the pickup and dropoff, especially since itwas a drive they were already making. It onlytook five minutes.

“It just goes to show you, we’re all peoplewho want to help. That could have been myneighborhood,” said Angela.

Angelo doesn’t see the need to keep peopleupdated going away any time soon. He plansto keep the site up and encourages people touse it as a way to help others — even if theydon’t know anyone from San Bruno.

“Just because people need help [doesn’tmean you need] a direct connection to help

them. You just need to put your mind to it,”said Angelo.

Where Renee has been and where she is at today are so

 far apart it wouldn’t be fair – or possible – to measure her 

 progress in steps.

Renee was an abused child and a young teen raising her younger 

siblings; she was a daughter whose mother was murdered, a teen

mother, and a drug addict who attempted numerous suicides. How

she became a home owner, matriarch of a healthy family and

longtime San Mateo County employee is as simple as her earlier 

life was complicated.

Someone cared enough to listen and help. That help brought hope-

triggering a chain of life-saving events. Renee credits much of her 

current success to Caminar, a non-profit agency whose programs provide residential treatment, case management, supported

employment and education, a medication clinic and permanent

housing to adults with severe mental illness in San Mateo County.

Caminar’s services help lead disabled individuals to independent – 

rather than dependent - living.

After a chaotic youth, her early adult years were haunted with

memories of her past. She went from college-going wife and

mother to 2 years of drug-dependency and 4 years of homelessness.

Suicide attempts were varied and numerous. She tried to overdose

with Ibuprofen and alcohol; slit her wrists; stood at a bridge’s edge

until she changed her mind. She drove toward a cliff near Hwy 280

 before deciding to stay on the road and go straight to a local hospital.

“I didn’t know what was wrong with me. I just wanted to die,”

Renee said. “For 4 years I fell through the cracks. On December 

26, 2000 my life changed- I was asked what was wrong. No one

ever asked or listened to me before. Caminar started helping me

and things started falling into place.”

With the advice of her mental health treatment team, two years

later Renee returned to school. She called Disabled Student

Services at College of San Mateo. “They said they’d be waiting

for me in the parking lot.” It was then Renee was introduced to

Caminar’s Supported Education Program and began attending

classes. “It was tough at first and I was doubtful,” Renee said.

“I was 42. Then one day I realized I was supposed to be here.”

Renee’s nurturing side came out during classes when she helped

other students. An instructor saw Renee’s talent and sensitivity and

recommended Peer Counseling classes. Renee was excited at the

new courses and completed the program in a year. She was then

hired by and joined the Caminar team as a Job Coach in their Jobs

Plus program. To her role as a Jobs Plus coach, she also added part-

time work with Caminar ’s REACH (Recovery, Empowerment, and

Community Housing) program.

Renee, through her employment, was now providing the type of 

support she had once received; helping individuals, with stories

familiar to her own, to gain and maintain meaningful employment,

stable housing and independence.

“I had the most difficult clients,” Renee said. “I said bring it on. It

let me know I can accomplish things. I have a caring spirit. Now I

have the opportunity to care for others.”

Four years ago, Renee took the Civil Service exam, scored 100%

and was one of 16 out of 300 candidates for a job as a Community

Worker Consumer Provider with San Mateo County BHRS; she

now owns a home, has a family and feels accomplished.

“The disadvantaged need someone who is nonjudgmental,” Renee

said. “I know what it’s like. I knew the shame and the stigma. I

look back, it was painful. But with experiences – like attending

Caminar’s Supported Education and working for Caminar – I

am able to help others. Caminar’s team was one of many to give

me courage, hope and determination to claim my life back – a

life better than it was before my crisis. It’s all part of the journey

toward recovery. I’m finally happy with myself.”

the Islas Creek to allow the water to wash outthe foul by-products of their operations. Theheyday of Butcher town was over by 1906and the last slaughterhouse closed in 1971.

Hundreds of butchers were needed forthese enterprises as well as cowboys whoherded the cattle to the slaughterhouses. Atone point, 3,500 people worked in the slaugh-terhouses. A close-knit community developedaround the processing and distribution of meat products to the San Francisco commu-nity.

Roth and Blum sold their business to Alpert

Packing Company who later sold the business

to James Allen. James Allen and Son Meat

Packing Company was located at Newhalland Evans streets. This became the largestslaughterhouse in the area. On Third Street,H. Moffat Company developed a meat pack-ing plant and on Sixth Avenue (Kirkwood)and Quint Street, Dommique Legallet startedthe Legallet Wool Pullery and Tannery toprocess sheep. They later moved to 1099Quesada Ave. Legallet started business in1879 and remained in business until 1970.Next to the Legallet Wool Pullery was the siteof the rodeo that produced entertainment forthe developing community. Associated withthe slaughterhouses was the need to move thecattle from the railroad cars that they arrivedin and from the barges that docked along thewaterside in India and South Basin. Use of the barges from Oakland and points south in

the Bay offered inexpensive travel from all

points to the slaughterhouses.

Along with the slaughterhouses developeda number of businesses associated with theslaughter of cows: tanneries for the process-ing of hides, tallow houses to produce can-dles, etc., leather and saddle shops to workthe leather into products, etc.

In the surrounding area, the Hunters Pointwaterside attracted shipbuilders as early as1866 when Munder’s boatyard constructedschooners. Dry docks were constructed forboat repair. The Union Iron Works gravingdocks were purchased by the United StatesShipbuilding Corporation which in turn waspurchased by Bethlehem Steel in 1905. Thedocks only a short distance from the slaugh-terhouses offered working opportunities of employment for hundreds of men.

It wasn’t until after the 1906 earthquake

that the area attracted numbers of people who

wanted cheap land for housing and a clean

place to live and raise their children. Over aperiod of time, the slaughterhouses eitherquit business or moved further away fromthis developing area that was becoming over-populated.

Miller and Lux ceased to exist on thePeninsula when Gustavus Swift purchasedthe land south of San Bruno Mountain andthe South San Francisco Land andImprovement Company began the business of developing the land of South San Francisco.In 1894, Western Meat was incorporated andthe packing business began in the area whichwas named South San Francisco.

By David EspoTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON — SenateRepublicans derailed legislationSaturday to extend expiring taxcuts at all but the highest incomelevels in a political showdown that

paradoxically clears a path for acompromise with the White Houseon steps to boost the economy.

“We need to get this resolved andI’m confident we can do it,”President Barack Obama saidshortly after the near party-linevotes. The public must have “thepeace of mind that their taxes willnot go up” on Jan. 1, he added.

Obama hassignaled that hewill bow toR e p u b l i c a ndemands forextending taxcuts at allincome levels,

and his remarkscapped a daythat lurched

between political conflict and talkof compromise on an issue thatplayed a leading role in lastmonth’s elections.

Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.,eyeing the 2012 campaign, accusedRepublicans of siding with “mil-

lionaires and billionaires” withtheir rejection of proposals thatwould let tax cuts passed duringGeorge W. Bush’s presidency lapseon seven-figure incomes.

Republicans noted that unem-ployment rose to 9.8 percent lastmonth and said it made no sense to

raise taxes on anyone in a weakeconomy. Sen. Jon Kyl, R-Ariz., jabbed that Democrats were under-going a “political catharsis” inpublic after losing control of theHouse and surrendering severalseats in the Senate in the Nov. 2election.

But the rhetoric subsided quicklyafter the votes, and Senate leaders in

both parties said they hoped politi-cal clashes would give way to com-promise in the next several days.

Kentucky Sen. MitchMcConnell, the GOP leader, saidhe was relatively confident therewould be a deal with the WhiteHouse “not to raise taxes in the

middle of a recession.” He saidtalks were continuing on the lengthof an extension to be enacted forthe cuts that were put in place in2001 and 2003.

Senate Majority Leader HarryReid, D-Nev., said he hoped for anagreement by the middle or end of next week on legislation that wouldcombine an extension of tax cuts

with a renewal of expiring joblessbenefits for the long-term unem-ployed.

Officials have said that in addi-tion to tax cuts and unemploymentbenefits, the White House wants toinclude renewal of several other taxprovisions that are expiring. They

include a break for lower- and mid-dle- class wage earners, even if they don’t make enough to pay thegovernment, as well as for collegestudents and for companies thathire the unemployed.

Key lawmakers and administra-tion officials have been at worknegotiating the terms of a possibledeal for several days.

Showdown may pave way for year-end tax deal

WASHINGTON — The U.S. andSouth Korea have reached an agree-

ment on America’s largest trade pactin more than a decade, a highly cov-eted deal the Obama administrationhopes will boost U.S. exports andcreate tens of thousands of jobs athome.

After a week of marathon negoti-ations, representatives from bothcountries broke through a stalemateFriday morning on outstanding

issues related to the automobileindustry, which have been a stickingpoint in the talks. The agreementwould be the largest U.S. trade dealsince the 1994 North American FreeTrade Agreement, or NAFTA, with

Canada and Mexico and would bol-ster U.S. ties with the fast-growingSouth Korea economy.

South Korea is agreeing to allow

the U.S. to lift a 2.5 percent tariff onKorean cars in five years, instead of cutting the tariff immediately. Theagreement also allows each U.S.automaker to export 25,000 cars toSouth Korea.

• Serious and debilitating neck pain

• Sharp, shooting pains in the shoulders and arms

• Numbness and tingling in the arms and hands

• Severe, chronic headaches

• Herniated or Bulging Cervical Discs

…there may be hope. Now, one doctor 

in the bay area has what may be the most important breakthrough in neck pain

treatment.

If you’re suffering from neck pain, arm pain, or

numbness in the hands, this may be the most important

article you ever read. It’s about what is perhaps the

most revolutionary treatment ever used for neck and

arm pain. Even pinched nerves and disc herniations can

be successfully treated with this amazing therapy.

My name is Dr. Thomas Ferrigno D.C., owner of 

Crossroads Health Center in San Mateo and Campbell.

I understand what it feels like to live with chronic

neck pain. I have personally suffered from multiple

disc herniations in both my neck and lower back and

understand firsthand the severe pain and disability

that comes with these types of injuries. I did not wantto have spinal surgery due to the high risk; instead I

wanted a non-surgical non-invasive therapy that would

help me manage my condition.

That is when I turned to Spinal Decompression and

the DRX9000 not as a doctor, but as a patient and it

completely changed my life. Within a few months

my pain went from severe to mild and I was able to

return back to my activities of golf, weight lifting and

spending quality time with my family. It has been my

mission ever since to share this great new technology

with as many people as possible.

While non-surgical spinal decompression is a rather

new treatment, there’s plenty of research to back up its

claims. Give us a call and we will send you the studies

or visit my website at www.BayAreaBackPain.Com.However it’s the results we see every day in our office

that get us so excited about this new non-invasive

treatment. Read what some of our patients are saying.

 My severe lower back and sciatica pain have

been reduced significantly since receiving spinal 

decompression therapy. I am now able to walk, golf 

and do things without pain that I haven’t been able to

do for years.

Thank you, Dr. Ferrigno

—C.M. Allard 

 During the 1 1/2 years of having constant daily lower

back pain and spasms, I took anti-inflammatory and 

 pain medication, but nothing helped lessen the pain.

Physical therapy didn’t help. When an MRI showed that  I had two degenerative discs, I went through a series of 

lumbar epidural injections. The first one helped a tiny

bit, but the others didn’t do a thing for my pain. The

only thing that made the pain and spasms go away was

Spinal Decompression treatments at Crossroads Health

Center. Four years later and I am still pain-free!

—Lisa K..

Free Consultation & ExaminationI’m running a very special offer where you

can find out if you are a candidate for spinal

decompression.

What does this offer include?• An in-depth consultation about your health and

well-being where I will listen…really listen…

to the details of your case.

have them. We can order new ones if needed.

• A report of findings where I will let you know if 

I can help you along with a complete explanation

of your condition and treatment plan.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

TEHRAN, Iran — Iran delivereda resolute message Sunday on theeve of talks with six world powers:We’re mining our own uraniumnow, so forget about stopping ournuclear ambitions.

The Islamic Republic said it hasproduced its first batch of locallymined uranium ore for enrichment,making it independent of foreigncountries for a process the Westfears is geared toward producingnuclear arms.

No matter the U.N. sanctionsover the program, “our nuclearactivities will proceed and they will

witness greater achievements in thefuture,” Iranian nuclear chief AliSalehi told state-run Press TV.

Western of ficials downplayed theannouncement, saying it had beenexpected and that Iran did not haveenough ore to maintain the large-scale enrichment program that

Tehran says it is building as asource of fuel for an envisaged net-work of nuclear reactors.

“Given that Iran’s own supply of uranium is not enough for a peace-ful nuclear energy program, thiscalls into further question Iran’sintentions and raises additionalconcerns at a time when Iran needsto address the concerns of the inter-

national community,” said MikeHammer, spokesman of the U.S.National Security Council.

Sunday’s announcement makesclear that Iran does not consideruranium enrichment to be up fordiscussion at the talks beginningMonday in Geneva. Tehran is deter-

mined to expand the programinstead of scrapping it as the U.N.Security Council demands.

Expectations for the talks hadbeen low even before the announce-ment, with Iran saying it is pre-pared to discuss nuclear issues onlyin the context of global disarma-ment. Of ficials from some of the sixpowers have said they would be

pleased if negotiations yielded nomore than agreement to meet at alater date to explore commonthemes.

The ultimate aim of the U.S.,Russia, China, Britain, France andGermany is to commit Tehran togive up enrichment because of its

potential use in making nucleararms.

The talks in Geneva — the first inover a year — are meant to lay thecornerstone for establishing trust.Tehran says it does not want atom-ic arms, but as it builds on itscapacity to potentially make suchweapons, neither Israel nor the U.S.have ruled out military action if the

Islamic Republic fails to heed U.N.Security Council demands to freezeenrichment and other nuclear pro-grams.

The talks are expected to taketwo days. Saeed Jalili, Iran’s topnuclear negotiator, will meet withEU foreign affairs chief Catherine

Ashton, with Ashton’s of fice sayingshe will act “on behalf” of the U.S.,Russia, China, Britain, France andGermany. In fact, senior of ficialsfor those six powers will attend anddo much of the talking with Tehran.

Ahead of the talks, Western of fi-cials urged Tehran to address inter-national concerns about its nuclearactivities.

BAGHDAD — Intelligence of fi-cials say foreign fighters have been

slipping back into Iraq in largernumbers recently and may havebeen behind some of the most dev-astating attacks this year, reviving athreat the U.S. military believed hadbeen almost entirely eradicated.

It is impossible to verify the actu-al numbers of foreign insurgentsentering the country. But one

Middle Eastern intelligence of ficialestimated recently that 250 came inOctober alone. U.S. of ficials say thefigure is far lower, but have

acknowledged an increase sinceAugust.At the same time, Iraqi of ficials

say there has been a surge in finan-cial aid to al-Qaida’s front group inIraq as the U.S. military prepares toleave by the end of 2011.

They said it reflects fears by Arabstates over the growing influence of 

Iran’s Shiite-led government overIraq and its Shiite-dominated gov-ernment.

Union payback grantEditor,In his article “Conflicts dodged

in awarding grant” in the Dec. 2edition of the Daily Journal, BillSilverfarb reports on the goals of the union-sponsored San MateoCounty Union CommunityAlliance. “The alliance intends touse the grant money to expandcommunity participation in coun-ty policy decisions about how toimprove and expand access tohealth care for lower income resi-dents; advocate on behalf of poorpeople for improved and expand-ed access to health care and edu-cate and organize San Mateo resi-dents about the need for improvedand expanded access to healthcare.”

The operative words are “advo-cate” and “expand communityparticipation” — sounds to melike pseudo-grassroots politicaladvocacy using taxpayer dollars.It is one thing for unions to lobbythe Legislature and the Board of Supervisors, but it is quite anotherto rally the general public to sup-port their cause. It is highlyunethical and arguably criminal touse tax dollars in support of unions in this manner. Why notsupport the Howard JarvisTaxpayers Association in theirlobbying efforts to protect taxpay-ers?

Republican nonsenseEditor,I can’t believe what’s coming

out of the Republican congres-sional camp these days.

Are they deliberately confusing

the issue, or don’t they understandthat there is no such thing as taxcuts just for the middle class?Any tax rate for those making nettaxable income of less than$250,000 affects equally thosemaking more. The tax rate for thefirst $250,000 is unaffected byany taxable income over andbeyond.

With tax reductions for the first$250,000, those better off getexactly the same as the middleclass. But that isn’t enough; theywant more. Their greed andincredible selfishness come at theexpense of our nation in the longrun.

This is so elementary that evenRepublican members of Congressshould understand it. To turnaround and claim that tax reduc-tion for those making more wouldcreate jobs is beyond stupidity. Itis money spent that drives theeconomy, creates demand, andresults in additional jobs beingcreated — that’s simple econom-ics. And, while we’re at it, noth-ing would stimulate the economymore and create more good jobsthan public funding of large proj-ects to improve the infrastructure.That’s money spent and circulat-ing here, while money spent forwars for the most part is wasted

“over there.”

U.S.-backed regime changeEditor,So what is all the fuss about

again between North Korea andSouth Korea? It seems that inrecent years there have been aboutthree such clashes similar to theone on Nov. 23. In each case ithas been provoked by “war

games” held by South Korea off 

the cost of and often, veryprovocatively, inside the territorialwaters claimed by North Korea.

The major difference is that thistime the U.S. involvement seemsnot to be kept a very good secret,what with the movement of thehuge aircraft carrier, the USSGeorge Washington, presently onits way to the Yellow Sea, an areawhich China considers part of itssovereign territory. In the mean-time, the Obama administration ishypocritically calling on Chinaand North Korea for “calm.”

The United States has longsought “regime change” for NorthKorea. Surely, you are not naive

enough to think that our puppetstate, South Korea, is carrying outthese incident provoking activitieson its own? The unstable andretiring leader of North Korea isseen as particularly vulnerable atpresent.

The Obama administration hasapparently decided that just whatwe need now to give the economya boost is a third war. After all,the last Korean War we foughtonly cost us about 53,000 U.S.soldiers’ lives.

An idea whosetime has come

Editor,There has been some talk about

the deleterious effects of Proposition 13, a proposition thatI think is worthy of maintaining.However, should it be inviolableor sacrosanct? Maybe not.

On May 21, 2009, I sent a noteto Assemblyman Jerry Hill, a rep-resentative I trust, although myassemblyman is Ira Ruskin, whom

I have less confidence in. Of 

course, Hill’s staff redirected mysuggestion to Ruskin, per policy.My suggestion will be unpopular,but I think has merit if the param-eters are enforced in a financialemergency. The suggestion for thebudget dilemma:

I don’t like offering this idea tothe Legislature about the sacredProposition 13, but maybe theycould explore modifyingProposition 13, that allows thestate to increase property taxes by1 percent to 2 percent for no morethan two consecutive years and itcannot be invoked again for 10years.

No doubt it may have to go to

the voters. There should be veryrestrictive provisions for use of those funds — no earmarks or tocut money loose from othersources to be used for earmarks.The Legislature has to be verycrafty and transparent using plainlanguage and no parsing of words.As you know, I am not much of asupporter of yours [Hill], grid-lock or the Half Moon Baybailout, but if the idea is worthyto consider and maybe pursue itshould be even if it is wroughtwith risk.

I will now add one additionalparameter — freeze programs to2010 — that includes the currentcuts in programming and raisingrevenue is used to retire our cur-rent debt.

Remember, one-time imple-mentation in 10 years at no morethan 2 percent for two years. Ihave no idea how much that willraise and it should include busi-nesses in this proposed adjust-ment.

Letters to the editor

This column may sound likecranky Andy Rooney on60 Minutes. They don’t

make things the way they used to.Especially vacuums. I just bought anew vacuum, not by choice, butnecessity. My first was the best. Itwas handed down to me by mymother who had it for about 30

years. I used it for another 10. Itwas an Electrolux, made of metaland made in the U.S.A. It was asleek long canister, easy to use andmove around and hardly ever inneed of fixing. Today’s models aremade mostly of plastic and are socomplex you need a guide to figurewhat button to push and where thebutton is located. You are lucky if they last a decade. And, of course,they are not made in the U.S.A.

***College football also isn’t what it

once was. Many of the games areplayed at night to accommodatetelevision schedules. Big moneyhas invaded the sport as it hasalmost everything else.

But what’s worse is trying to fig-ure out who is going to a bowlgame. I finally figured out that theall-powerful BCS stands for BowlChampionship Series and is not abank or a calendar reference. Andthat TCU is not an item in hospitalacute care or a mixed-up acronymfor tender loving care. It stands forTexas Christian University. It usedto be, in the good old days, that the

Rose Bowl hosted the champion of the Pac 10 and the top Midwestern

team on New Year’s Day.As someone who follows

Stanford football, I was very excit-ed that this year’s team, supposedlyone of the best ever, might play inthe Rose Bowl. Especially since thenumber one team in the nation andthe number one team in the Pac 10is Oregon which is going to play inthe national championship gameagainst Auburn, number two, abowl match-up superior to the RoseBowl. TCU is ranked number threeand, according to the sports press,is in position to be invited to theRose Bowl over Stanford which is just number four. TCU is not amember of the Pac 10 but I guessthat doesn’t matter any more. Next

year, to make matters more confus-ing, the Pac 10 is becoming the Pac12. Now all of the rankings couldchange if Oregon State beatsOregon and South Carolina beatsAuburn. Oregon State and Oregonare familiar teams. After all, theyare members of the Pac 10. Butwhy should the Rose Bowl picksdepend on what happens to Auburnand South Carolina? Finally, I

think if Stanford played Oregonlast week instead of earlier in the

schedule, they would have won.But then they would exchangeplaces with Oregon as the numberone or number two team nationallyand not play at the Rose Bowl.

***In addition to the WikiLeaks

prominent in today’s news, there’sanother infamous leak now the sub- ject of an outstanding movie, “FairGame.” It’s the story of ValeriePlame, a CIA secret agent who wasouted by White House of ficialsallegedly out to discredit her hus-band, former U.S. Ambassador JoeWilson. Wilson wrote a 2003 NewYork Times article saying that theBush administration had manipulat-ed intelligence about weapons of 

mass destruction to justify the inva-sion of Iraq. WikiLeaks reveals thethreat of weapons of mass destruc-tion in Iran is real, not fantasy. Isn’tit ironic that we invaded the coun-try that did not have weapons of mass destruction, the countrywhose number one enemy wasIran, which in turn is the countrywhich has the real stuff.

Business brief

By Paul WisemanTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON — The economy isstarting to fire on almost every cylinderthese days but the one that matters most:Job creation.

Factories are busier. Incomes are ris-

ing. Autos are selling. The holiday shop-ping season is shaping up as the best infour years. Stock prices are surging.

And many analysts are raising theirforecasts for the economy’s growth.Goldman Sachs, for instance, justrevised its gloomy prediction of a 2 per-cent increase in gross domestic productin 2011 to 2.7 percent and forecast 3.6percent growth for 2012.

“The upward momentum has moretraction this time,” says JamesO’Sullivan, chief economist at MFGlobal.

If only every major pillar of the econ-omy were faring so well.

Despite weeks of brighter economicnews, employers still aren’t hiring freely.The economy added a net total of just

39,000 jobs in November, the govern-ment said Friday.

That’s far too few even to stabilize the

unemployment rate, which rose from 9.6percent in October to 9.8 percent lastmonth. Unemployment is widely expect-ed to stay above 9 percent through nextyear, in part because of the still-depressed real estate industry.

Job creation ultimately drives theeconomy, and it remains the most signif-

icant weak link.The meager job gains for November

confounded economists. They’d expect-ed net job growth to reach 145,000 andfor the unemployment rate to stay at 9.6percent.

Some economists dismissed theNovember data as a technical fluke, aresult of the government’s dif ficulty inadjusting the figures for seasonal factors.They think the number will be revisedup later.

Others saw the jobs report as areminder that the economy is still strug-gling to emerge from an epic financialcrisis that choked off credit, stifledspending and escalated a “normal”recession into the worst in 70 years. Thedepth of the financial crisis means the

recovery will proceed more slowly thanmany had hoped or expected, they say.

“The fits and starts are not surprising,”

says Jack Kleinhenz, chief economist atthe National Retail Federation. “We’vehad a unique recession and therefore aunique recovery.”

In the view of most economists, thedirection of the overall economyremains positive — even if its pace feelsagonizingly slow. The latest unemploy-

ment report was a setback, but likely atemporary one, they say.

“Which are you going to believe,”O’Sullivan asks, “one month of payrollsor all the other data?”

Among the encouraging signs:—— Consumers, whose spending

fuels about 70 percent of the economy,are regaining confidence. TheConference Board’s index of consumerconfidence rose in November to thehighest level since June as consumersexpressed more optimism about businessconditions and jobs. Consumers are suf-fering “austerity fatigue,” says ScottMinerd of Guggenheim Partners.They’re ready to replace old clothes, oldappliances, old cars.

— Family finances have improved.

Personal income surged 0.5 percent inOctober. That put cash in shoppers’ wal-lets for the holiday shopping season.

BEIJING — Contacts told Americandiplomats that hacking attacks againstGoogle were ordered by China’s top rul-ing body and a senior leader demandedaction after finding search results thatwere critical of him, leaked U.S. govern-ment memos show.

One memo sent by the U.S. Embassy in

Beijing to Washington said a “well-placed contact” told diplomats theChinese government coordinated theattacks late last year on Google Inc. underthe direction of the Politburo StandingCommittee, the apex of Communist Partypower.

The details of the memos, known indiplomatic parlance as cables, could not

be verified. Chinese government depart-ments either refused to comment or couldnot be reached. If true, the cables showthe political pressures that were facingGoogle when it decided to close itsChina-based search engine in March.

The cable about the hacking attacksagainst Google, which was classified assecret by Deputy Chief of Mission RobertGoldberg, was released by WikiLeaks.

The New York Times said the cable,

dated early this year, quoted the contactas saying that propaganda chief LiChangchun, thefifth-ranked of ficial in thecountry, and top security of ficial ZhouYongkang oversaw the hacking of Google. Both men are members of thePolitburo Standing Committee.

The cable notes that it is unclear if Chinese President Hu Jintao and Premier

Wen Jiabao were aware of the reportedactions before Google went public aboutthe attacks in January.

The Times, however, said doubts aboutthe allegation have arisen after the news-paper interviewed the person cited in thecable, who denied knowing who directedthe hacking attacks on Google. TheTimes did not identify the person it inter-viewed.

Another contact cited in that cable said

he believed an of ficial on the top politicalbody was “working actively with ChineseInternet search engine Baidu againstGoogle’s interests in China.”

Google’s relations with Beijing havebeen tense since the U.S.-based searchgiant said in January it no longer wantedto cooperate with Chinese Web censor-ship following computer hacking attacks.

HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL: SEQUOIA CAN’T KEEP PACE WITH RAMS IN TITLE GAME >>> PAGE 14

By Josh KoehnDAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Movies often emulate real life,but every now and then reality stealsthe script and turns Hollywood onits head.

Trevor Jacobs had his own“Varsity Blues” moment Saturdaynight at Westmont High School, asthe junior backup quarterbackplayed in place of injured starter

Chris Forbes inthe CentralCoast SectionDivision IIIchampionshipand led TerraNova to a 35-13 victory overthe Monterey

Toreadors.Jacobs was 19-for-26 for 307

yards and three touchdowns to help

Tigers coach Bill Gray win his thirdCCS title in three different sportswhile coaching at two differentschools. The coach admitted theachievement is something to beproud of, but not a reason to go toocrazy.

“I’m too old to jump around anddo all that stuff, but it’s very satisfy-ing,” Gray said.

Branch’s performance, however,was impressive enough to get peo-

ple out of their seats and talkingabout a player who had seen onlylimited action all season aside froma start against King’s Academy,which resulted in a 41-28 defeat.

“He played like he was starting allyear,” said Tigers running back JoshCruz. Elias Vargas was the biggestbenefactor of Branch’s contribu-tions, hauling in eight passes for159 yards, including a one-handedgrab along the right sideline that

resulted in a 61-yard touchdownwhich put Terra Nova ahead 15-0after a Jake Deneen extra point.

“We tried to run the same play acouple of times, and I told (Branch)to have confidence in me and I’llrun under it and get it, and that’swhat happened,”Vargas said.

The Tigers defense was asimpressive as it its substitute quar-

Gators wintitle with

comebackBy Josh KoehnDAILY JOURNAL STAFF

There are comebacks and collapses, andSacred Heart Prep can count its first-everCentral Coast Section football championship

in the former category.Despite trailing 25-11 at halftime and giv-ing up an 83-yard touchdown run to Carmelquarterback Devin Pearson to begin the thirdquarter, the Gators went on to score 28 unan-swered points for a 39-32 victory in theDivision IV title game Saturday at WestmontHigh School.

“I was a little nervous (after Pearson’stouchdown) because we were already down,but we always believed in ourselves and keptfighting,” said Sacred Heart running backColin Terndrup, who rushed for 102 yards andscored three second-half touchdowns, includ-ing a 62-yarder through the air, to help leadthe charge.

“The offensive line in the second half justplayed unbelievable,” he said. “They heldtheir ground and stayed on their blocks.”

Going down 18-0 to begin the game, theGators closed out the first half strong by put-ting together 11 points on a 23-yard field goalby Jack Odell and a 3-yard touchdown passfrom John Geary to Tomas O’Donnell with 13seconds left in the half. In between those twoscores, however, the Padres continued to addto their lead with a 2-yard keeper for Pearson,who finished the game with 217 yards rushingand two touchdowns.

A tough Day for Sacred Heart PrepBy Nathan MollatDAILY JOURNAL STAFF

SAN JOSE — The Sacred Heart Prep vol-leyball team had to be nearly perfect if theGators had any chance of beating La JollaCountry Day in the Division IV state volley-ball championship Saturday at the San JoseState Event Center.

And they nearly were. The defense wassolid, serve receive was decent and they com-mitted very few errors.

Where the Gators were lacking, however,was on their final attack. Facing a Torreys'front line bigger than any the Gators havefaced this season – The Torreys five players 6feet or taller, including 6-foot-4 Gillian

Howard and 6-foot-2 Kendall Peterkin --Sacred Heart Prep could not generate any-thing offensively as they were swept by LaJolla Country Day, 25-10, 25-15, 25-13.

"We couldn't get anything going offensive-ly and we could finish plays," said SacredHeart Prep coach Damien Hardy. "That wasour downfall."

The match set up for a huge Gator upset asCountry Day, ranked No. 5 in the state byMaxPreps.com, sprayed hitting errors all overthe court. A team that could matchup withthe Torreys could have taken advantage, butsince it was clear the Gators were at a signif-icant height disadvantage, he Gators couldnot attack with abandon. The Gators wereforced to tip, dump and otherwise use change-up and off-speed attacks in an effort to con-fuse the Torreys.

The Gators did that to some degree in thethird game, putting together two differentfour-point runs, but that was the exception tothe rule.

Sacred Heart Prep middle blocker JesseEbner, who was selected to the all-tourna-ment team, said the Torreys’ height differen-tial would just be an excuse.

"In club, we play big players," Ebner said."We weren't intimidated. We know how to hit

sion would not stand up over fourquarters.

In the air, Pearson proved to be

susceptible to turnovers, as the

  junior signal-caller threw two piv-

otal interceptions in the fourth

quarter. The first allowed the

Gators to take the lead for good on

a six-yard sweep by Terndrup witha little more than three minutes to

play, and the second gave Sacred

Heart possession to ice the game

on the final series of downs.

“You got to give them credit,

they never quit,” said Sacred heart

coach Peter Lavaroto of his play-ers.

Carmel coach Golden Andersonlooked to be on his way to leadingthe Padres to back-to-back sectiontitles in only his second season

overseeing the program, but mis-cues on offense and breakdownson defense proved to be too costlywhen trying to preserve the lead.

“It wasn’t our defense’s fault(we lost), it was our team’s fault,”he said. “Especially when youhave the lead, you have to scorepoints.

Credit them for taking care of the ball.

“We had some good matchups in

the passing game, we just didn’ttake advantage.”Senior defensive lineman

Mafileo Koloamatangi said a half-time talk between players helpedkeep spirits high even when allseemed to be lost.

“‘Don’t give up,’ that’s all wewere saying,” he said, adding that achange in defensive alignment to afive-man front helped stiflePearson and company. “That (firstscore of the second half) was astrike against out pride and weused it for motivation.”

around the block."The Gators definitely had a hard time hitting around the

block as the Torreys finished with 14, compared to just twofor the Gators.

Hardy said the Gators needed to be on top of their game if they were to beat the Torreys.

"They're so big, you have to be really precise with the ball,"Hardy said.

Country Day didn't exactly pound the ball down. But theTorreys' height meant they could make midair adjustmentsand still get a quality attack.

At least the Gators made the Torreys work for the majorityof their points. The Gators made only 15 errors, meaning theTorreys had to score points on their own without the Gatorsgiving them free points, but it was hardly a hardship as theTorreys countered with 41 kills. Sacred Heart Prep, on theother hand, had only had 14 kills.

The Gators were led by Sarah Daschbach, who had six kills.Sonia Abuel-Saud and Ebner each had four kills.

La Jolla Country Day got a match-high 11 kills from MollieRogers, with Howard finishing with 10 kills and six blocks.

Despite the one-sided loss, Hardy could not have been anymore proud of his team. Everyone told him and his team thisyear was a rebuilding season after graduating eight playersfrom last season’s CCS championship team.

But neither Hardy nor the Gators would listen to thenaysayers.

"This was probably one of the best teams I’ve evercoached," Hardy said. "No one expected us to do well in CCS

and we won it. No one expected us to do well in Nor Cals andwe won it."The good news for the Gators is they lose only two players

to graduation this spring and with five juniors and four soph-omores on this year’s team, the Gators are looking for biggerand better things next season.

“If this was a re-building year, I can’t wait to come back andsee this team,” said senior setter Hanna Elmore. “I can’t waitfor this program in the next two, three years.”

Said junior outside hitter Daschbach: “We definitely gainedexperience that will help us next year.”

terback, containing star Toreadors tailback John-WyattWilliams to 138 yards rushing but no touchdowns. Montereyreceiver Nate Malone caught two touchdowns but theToreadors seemed to never be able to sustain drives to com-pletion.

Terra Nova was first to score on a 24-yard touchdown passfrom Branch to junior wide receiver Nick Manessis, and the

Tigers extended their lead on a 1-yard burst by EddieLaurenson in the third quarter to go up 21-6. Terra Nova led15-6 at halftime.

Branch threw three interceptions, but he matched that num-ber in touchdowns with a 25-yard touchdown toss to JakeSmith with 11:31 remaining in the game to make it 28-13.

Billy Coen capped off the game with less than two minutesremaining when he returned an interception 11 yards for pay-dirt.

While the defense was impressive in curbing a high-pow-ered Monterey rushing attack, Branch put forth by far themost surprising effort.

Gray noted that Branch was the starting quarterback on agood junior varsity team last season and has been preparingeach week this season as if he was going to play.

“He’s gone through a very frustrating time playing behindChris,” Gray said, adding that the experience gained in theloss to King’s Academy, in which Branch put up big numbers,showed he was capable.

“He’s not a stranger to this. … To see his ef ficiency, thattells you how good Chris Forbes must be,” Gray said.

Still, getting a backup quarterback to come in on shortnotice and win a section title was something Gray admittedwas a unique achievement.

“It was a team effort, but you got to tip your cap to Trevor,”he said.

Monterey coach Mark Newton chalked up the defeat toTerra Nova’s effort and a lack of follow-through on his team’spart.

“As a team, we just didn’t take care of the ball very well andwe had some breakdowns on defense,” he said. “We didn’texecute nearly as well as they did.”

And while one team was heartbroken in defeat, the playwhop would be most likely to view his team’s championshipas bittersweet, Forbes, also a junior, was having none of it.

“It’s tough seeing the game and knowing I would be outthere if I was injured,” he said, “but I couldn’t pick a betterguy than Trevor to this, because I know how hard he’s beenworking.”

TIGERSBCS-busting TCU to faceWisconsin in Rose Bowl

PASADENA — For the second straight year,TCU is unbeaten, untied — and unable to playfor the national championship.

At least the Horned Frogs are getting onegranddaddy of a consolation prize.

No. 3 TCU (12-0) is headed to its first RoseBowl for a showdown with fourth-ranked

Wisconsin (11-1), both schools learned Sundaynight.

TCU is busting the BCS for the second straightseason, following last year’s loss to Boise Statein the Fiesta Bowl. The Frogs held out hope of atitle shot until Saturday, but Auburn and Oregonwon their final regular-season games to stay infront.

Big Ten co-champion Wisconsin is headedback to Pasadena for the first time since the 1999season, when Heisman Trophy-winning tailbackRon Dayne led the Badgers past Stanford on Jan.1, 2000. Wisconsin held off fellow one-loss co-champions Ohio State and Michigan State in theBCS standings to earn another Rose Bowl berth.

SAN JOSE – Late in the thirdquarter of the Central Coast SectionDivision II championship footballgame between No. 2 Sequoia andNo. 5 Willow Glen, Rams quarter-

back Mitchell Ravizza droppedback to pass and had his arm hit ashe released the ball.

The ball wobbled into the air –and into the arms of Jake Wilson,who turned a raced 36 yards for a40-14 Willow Glen lead on its wayto a 47-14 pasting of the CherokeesSaturday afternoon at San Jose CityCollege..

Not that the Rams got lucky, orrelied on fluky plays. Willow Glenwas simply better and Sequoiacoach Rob Poulos acknowledged asmuch.

“On this day, Willow Glen wasgoing to win this game,” Poulossaid. “They clicked on all cylindersand sometimes it’s just your year.

Tip your hat (to Willow Glen), it’syour year.”

Coming into the game, everyonewas thinking it was Sequoia’s year.The Cherokees, who spent much of the last decade among the down-

trodden in the Peninsula AthleticLeague, was one of the few remain-ing teams in the state to sport anunbeaten record. The Cherokeeswent into Saturday afternoon’sgame at San Jose City College witha chance to make history: Tobecome the first Sequoia football

team to go undefeated since 1967and to win the school’s first footballCCS championship.

In the end, however, Sequoiacould not find a way to slow downWillow Glen’s vaunted passingattack. Rams’ quarterback MitchellRavizza –who will be in the runningfor several Player of the Year awardsfrom various media outlets – was onfire, completing 21 of 32 passes for285 yards and throwing for fourtouchdowns.

But that wasn’t all. He alsorushed for a score and caught atouchdown pass when he pitchedthe ball to Joe Gotelli for a sweepright, only for Gotelli to pull up andloft a pass toward Ravizza on the

opposite sideline. Ravizza thenweaved his way through theSequoia defense for a 35-yardscore.

All in all, the Rams finished with320 yards passing – to seven differ-

e n treceivers –and fin-ished with427 totalyards.

“ T h e y

were as (good as) advertised. Wesaw, like, six films (of the Rams).They looked really scary on film,”Poulos said. “[Ravizza] runs that

show. How many times did he makea play?”

Answer: All game long. TheSequoia defense did a good job of pressuring Ravizza – Poulosbelieves his front seven got toRavizza more than any otherdefense this season -- includingthree sacks from Nick Zmay. TheCherokees also did a good job con-taining Ravizza, who is usuallymore of threat running but was heldto negative-4 yards rushing.

But Ravizza did an outstanding  job of buying time and findingreceivers downfield after the pockethad collapsed.

“[We] did a good job of contain-ing him,” Poulos said. “But theirguys made plays.”

Sequoia, on the other hand, sim-ply could not keep up in the big-play department. After watchingWillow Glen go 71 yards on threeplays to take a 7-0 after the firstdrive of the game, Sequoia cameright back and tied the score at 7.Starting from their own 44, theCherokees marched 56 yards oneight plays, culminating with a 6-

yard scoring strike from JamesBeekley to Abhineet Ram.

The Rams went up 13-7 on theirnext possession, overcoming athird-and-long by completing a 25-yard pass and then scoring on a 26-yard pass from Ravizza to JamesAliason down to left sideline.

Willow Glen went up 19-7 when theRams recovered a Sequoia fumbleon its next series and scored a thirdtime in as many drives when Gotellihooked up with Ravizza for the 35-yard score, two plays after recover-ing the fumble.

Sequoia stayed in the game bygoing 65 yards on nine plays.Beekley completed two passes for29 yards on the drive, but it wasIsaias Flores who capped it bybulling his way into the end zonefrom 5 yards out to close the WillowGlen lead to 19-14.

It also wrapped up the scoring forthe first quarter and would be theCherokees’ last score of the game.

Willow Glen scored once late inthe second quarter to take a 26-14lead at halftime and didn’t take itsfoot off the gas in the second half,scoring three more touchdowns.

It was the Rams who made thebetter defensive adjustments in thesecond half as they held theCherokees scoreless over the final24 minutes and only 105 yards of offense.

“I think they did a good job of disrupting our rhythm,” Poulos said.

SAN DIEGO — The San DiegoChargers are mortal in December,after all.

They found out at the hands of theOakland Raiders, of all teams.

Jason Campbell ran for one touch-down and threw for another, DarrenMcFadden ran for 97 yards and aTD, and the Raiders took advantageof more mistakes by the Chargers tostun San Diego 28-13 on Sunday.

The loss puts a serious crimp inthe playoff hopes for the four-timedefending AFC West championChargers (6-6), who trail the Kansas

City Chiefs bytwo games withfour to play.Oakland (6-6)revived a run-ning game thathad beenstopped cold intwo straight loss-es, rippingthrough the

Chargers for 251 yards. MichaelBush ran for 95 yards and a score.

San Diego gained just 21 yardsrushing. Mike Tolbert, who had con-secutive 100-yard games, wasstuffed for 16 yards on seven carries.Rookie Ryan Mathews didn’t play,

apparently still bothered by a highankle sprain.

The Raiders swept the seasonseries for the first time since 2001.

The Chargers’streak of 18 straightDecember victories — which tied anNFL record for most victories in anymonth — came to a thudding end.Their last December loss was onDec. 31, 2005. San Diego had beentied with the 1970-74 MiamiDolphins, who won 18 straight inNovembers.

The Raiders beat the Chargers 35-27 at Oakland on Oct. 10 when con-secutive blocked punts early in thegame led to a touchdown and a safe-ty. That victory snapped Oakland’s

13-game losing streak to theChargers.

The Chargers corrected theirproblems during a four-game win-ning streak, but then reverted to theform that showed during an ugly 2-5start. San Diego had two earlyturnovers in this game, leading to a14-0 Oakland lead.

Darren Sproles fumbled a puntearly in the first quarter and HiramEugene recovered at the San Diego18. On fourth-and-1 from the 9, theRaiders fooled the Chargers with afake handoff to fullback MarcelReece while Campbell ran a nakedbootleg to the left for an easy touch-down.

On the next Chargers possession,Rivers overthrew Malcom Floyd andthe ball went right to safety MichaelHuff, who returned it 15 yards to theSan Diego 41. Campbell completedthe drive with a 4-yard TD pass torookie Jacoby Ford in the right cor-ner of the end zone for a 14-0 lead.

After San Diego’s Nate Kaedingkicked a 39-yard field goal,Campbell showed that the Raidersdidn’t need a turnover to score.

He led an 80-yard, 11-play drivethat was capped by Bush’s 7-yardTD run, when he used a spin moveand a strong second effort topower into the end zone for a 21-3lead.

Raiders stun Chargers 28-13

By Chris JenkinsTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

GREEN BAY, Wis. — Donald Driver wokeup with a case of food poisoning on Sundaymorning, blaming it on a bad batch of spicychicken wings.

Then he gave the San Francisco 49ers’defense a play that was dif ficult to digest.

Driver left a string of befuddled 49ers’defenders in his dust on a rambling 61-yardcatch-and-run for a touchdown in the thirdquarter, providing the most critical play in thePackers’ 34-16 victory at Lambeau Field onSunday.

“I don’t know what happened,” Driver said.“All I know is when I caught it, I just startedmaking moves. Unfortunately, you don’t whatkind of moves you make until you watch thefilm.”

As Driver and the team celebrated, the crowdcounted out all the tackles he broke as the playwas replayed on the stadium video screens.

“That’s one of the best plays I’ve ever been apart of,” Aaron Rodgers said.

Greg Jennings caught six passes for 122yards and a pair of touchdowns for the Packers(8-4), who picked up a critical victory as theymake a push for the playoffs.

Rodgers was 21 of 30 for 298 yards withthree touchdowns and no interceptions.

Vernon Davis had 126 yards receiving and atouchdown for the 49ers (4-8), who came intoSunday’s game with playoff hopes despitetheir disappointing record.

Addressing his increasingly shaky job status,49ers coach Mike Singletary said simply that

he coaches for his job every week. He strug-

gled to find positives to take away fromSunday.

“I can’t say that we accomplished much inthis game,” Singletary said.

But given the mediocre state of the NFCWest,quarterback Troy Smith wasn’t giving upon making the playoffs.

“There’s no margin of error to where we caneven try to think negatively about anything,”Smith said.

It was a wintry day at Lambeau, with tem-peratures in the 20s and a stiff, steady 16-mphwind.

The conditions seemed to impede thePackers’ passing game early as Rodgers wasuncharacteristically off target, missing Driverin the end zone in the first quarter and failing toconvert an open third-and-long throw in thesecond quarter because the ball bounced off a

defender’s helmet.Packers coach Mike McCarthy said the winddidn’t change the way he called the offense onSunday because of the weather, but Rodgersacknowledged that he didn’t account for thewind on the missed throw to Driver.

“I’ve played here enough times in the winterto know that the wind usually blows from ourtunnel to the northwest side of the field,”Rodgers said. “Unfortunately, I just forgotabout that for a quick second. But it wasn’t ahuge factor.”

Rodgers found his mark midway through thesecond quarter, when a defender jumped off-side to give him a free play — and Rodgersdelivered a deep strike to Jennings for a 57-yard touchdown, giving Green Bay a 7-6 lead.

Detroit drove to the Chicago 34before a sack led to a punt.

The Lions (2-10) have lost fivestraight this season and an NFL-record 19 within the division for thelongest skid since the 1970 merger.

Cleveland (5-7) won for the fourthtime in six games, and for the firsttime in Miami since 1970. TheDolphins (6-6) lost for the seventhtime in their past eight home games.

holiday gift for adults according to manywebsites. Of course, it’s also the most com-monly returned item. Style is subjective andpersonal. Bill Cosby looked dapper — dareI say stylish — in the multi-coloredsweaters he made famous on the CosbyShow, but your Uncle Leo just wouldn’tfeel like himself wearing those bold colorsand patterns. And just because they sellsweaters with huge appliqué snowmen andreindeer emblazoned across the front, thisdoesn’t mean you have to snap them up forevery woman you know over the age of 60.Not all women want to look like an extra onthe Golden Girls Home for the Holidays

special. Then again, I’m not the best personto be giving fashion tips. My style was oncedescribed as “The Brawny Paper TowelMan meets Boy Next Door” whatever thatmeans. But, I’ll give you this advice: if yourlittle, short-haired dog spends time outside,think about picking up some cold-weathergear. Little dogs are feeling the chill thesedays. And if you want to buy a sweater witha guarantee your gift won’t be returned orleft in a drawer,PHS/SPCA has an immedi-ate need for sweaters to keep our little dogswarm. The sweaters will be worn ... wornout, most likely! We’ve consistently haddozens of Chihuahuas and Chihuahuamixes available for adoption. Donatedsweaters for small dogs are gladly acceptedin our front lobby. While you’re here, checkout the pups. We have something for every-

one — smartly dressed Cosby types,Brawny men or Golden Girls. And if youalready have a good looking pup, kitty, rab-bit or iguana, you can have them pose withSanta this Friday at PHS/SPCA, noon-4p.m., no appointment necessary. Proceedsbenefit shelter dogs still awaiting good own-ers like you!

LOS ANGELES — Hair has won out overHarry Potter at the weekend box office.

Mandy Moore’s animated musical

“Tangled,” a new take on long-haired fairy-tale princess Rapunzel, sewed up the No. 1spot with $21.5 million in its second week-end, according to studio estimates Sunday.That raised the Disney release’s domestictotal to $96.5 million.

“Tangled” had debuted in second-placeover Thanksgiving behind “Harry Potterand the Deathly Hallows: Part 1,” which hadbeen at the top of the box office the two pre-vious weekends.

“Harry Potter” slipped to No. 2 this week-end with $16.7 million. The next-to-lastchapter in the Warner Bros. franchise aboutthe teen wizard lifted its domestic haul to$244.2 million.

Playing largely to family crowds,“Tangled” should hold on well through theholidays, said Chuck Viane, head of distri-

bution for Disney.“It’s not very often the second week of a

movie that it ends up the No. 1 movie,”Viane said. “This will be one of those leggymovies that just keeps playing and playing.”

Business was off sharply after a briskThanksgiving weekend, which is one of thebusiest periods of the year at movie the-aters.

With just $88 million in overall receipts,this was Hollywood’s second-worst week-end of the year, behind the meager $81.8million haul the weekend after Labor Day,according to box-office trackerHollywood.com.

“It was a bad weekend,” said PaulDergarabedian, analyst for Hollywood.com.“It just shows that people got a lot of theirmovie-going out of the way over that five-

day Thanksgiving weekend, and this week-end, they went, ‘Ahh, we’ve seen it.”’

Overall revenues also were down fromlast year. The $88 million in revenue was off 11.5 percent compared to the same weekendin 2009, when “The Blind Side” led the boxoffice with $20 million, according toHollywood.com.

The weekend’s only new wide release,Rogue Pictures’ action tale “The Warrior’sWay,” was a dud with just $3.1 million.Playing in 1,622 theaters, “The Warrior’sWay” averaged a weak $1,881 a cinema,compared to $5,967 in 3,603 cinemas for“Tangled.”

Starring Kate Bosworth, “The Warrior’s

Way” is a martial-arts adventure about anassassin hiding out in the Old West.

Natalie Portman’s ballet drama “Black

Swan” had a huge debut in limited release,taking in $1.4 million in just 18 theaters, fora whopping average of $77,459 a theater.

Released by Fox Searchlight, “BlackSwan” stars Portman as a dancer whobegins to lose herself in delusion amid thepressures of preparing for the lead in SwanLake. The film gradually expands intonationwide release through Christmasweek.

Also in limited release, Jim Carrey andEwan McGregor’s gay romance “I LoveYou Phillip Morris” opened solidly with$113,200 in six theaters, averaging$18,886.

Carrey stars as a scam artist who finds thelove of his life (McGregor) in state prison.The movie gradually expands into widerelease through early January.

‘Tangled’tops box office

1.“Tangled,”$21.5 million.2.“Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows:Part 1,”$16.7 million.3 (tie).“Burlesque,”$6.1 million.3 (tie).“Unstoppable,”$6.1 million.5.“Love & Other Drugs,”$5.7 million.6.“Megamind,”$5 million.7.“Due Date,”$4.2 million.8.“Faster,”$3.8 million.9.“The Warrior’s Way,”$3.1 million.10.“The Next Three Days,”$2.7 million.

MONDAy, DeC. 6, 2010

Continue to be patient during the next year, because rewards

could result rom a course you’re presently steering that

hasn’t yet paid o. Sometimes what we want, like ine

 American ketchup, can take a while to arrive.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) - Prospects that want to

purchase what you’re selling might slip away i you don’t stay

on top o things and close the deal. Start writing up the order

with the irst nod o approval.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) - See things or what they

are and not or what you ear they might be. Thinking in nega-

tive terms is unconstructive and will lead you down the road

to Chumpville.

 AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) - You love things that are di-

erent, but it behooves you to steer clear o shops that oer

novel merchandise. You’re likely to purchase something that

is totally impractical.

PISCeS (Feb. 20-March 20) - Take care that you don’t

snatch deeat rom the jaws o victory by making totally

unnecessary changes with something that is presently run-

ning smoothly. Leave well enough alone.

 ARIeS (March 21-April 19) - I you reuse to listen to the

truth, believing only what you want to hear, chances are you

will make the wrong call on something that is important to

you. Don’t ask or trouble.

 TAURUS (April 20-May 20) - The worst thing you could do isrush an important assignment and risk messing up an entire

project. Do things one step at a time, making sure each one is

correct beore moving on.

GeMINI (May 21-June 20) - In order or a team eort to

work successully, each person must do his/her part correctly

and at the right time. Even a nominal change o plans could

upset the applecart, leaving you with a lot o road apples.

CANCeR (June 21-July 22) - Be tolerant o those in your

group who simply aren’t as quick as you to grasp some o the

ideas or acts you’re dealing with. It won’t kill you to have to

repeat a ew bits o inormation.

LeO (July 23-Aug. 22) - Live within your means or, better yet,

within what’s in your wallet. Don’t borrow money rom riends

to gratiy a momentary, pleasurable olly. You might end up

being in agony trying to pay them back.

 VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) - I you can’t make up your mind

as to whether or not you should buy a certain item, walk 

away rom it or the time being. Reconsider only i you ind

yoursel continually thinking about it.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) - You’re apt to try to get by through

giving your job a lick and a promise i you’re simply not in the

mood to do your best. However, consider the consequences

o slacking.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) - An excellent opportunity or

proitable developments could slip through your ingers i you

take on an “easy come, easy go” attitude. Don’t treat impor-

tant matters indierently,

WORLD/LOCAL 27Monday • Dec.6,2010 THEDAILYJOURNAL

The couple saw some incredibleyears together as fishermen, espe-cially in 2002 when a record-high800,000 Central Valley Chinooksalmon returned to spawn in theSacramento River.

Anglers were able to haul in anincredible 700,000 salmon out of the Pacific Ocean that year.

Last year, less than 40,000 fallChinooks returned to Central Valleyrivers, according to the NationalMarine Fisheries Service.

The low numbers have broughtthe salmon fishing industry to thebrink of extinction and has cost thestate billions in revenue.

Locally, Beckett knows she is notthe only one suffering through thedecline in salmon numbers. The

bookings she makes for local char-ter boats has dropped dramatically.

Duncan MacLean, who captainsthe boat Barbara Faye out of PillarPoint, has been forced to take hisboat to fishing waters off the coastof Oregon and Washington this pastyear to keep food on the table.

For MacLean, “fi

shing was nevera living and always a lifestyle.”But the lifestyle is deteriorating,

he told a packed house of fishermenand government officials at asalmon summit at Mavericks Lodgeand Event Center at Pillar PointSaturday, hosted by U.S. Rep.Jackie Speier, D-San Mateo.

Speier, along with U.S. Rep. MikeThompson, D-Napa, invited scien-tists, state water agency representa-tives and those affected by theindustry’s decline to gather at PillarPoint to discuss what is needed torestore California’s salmon runs.

Central Valley Chinook salmonruns, if recovered fully, could pro-

vide 94,000 new jobs and $5.7 bil-lion in annual revenue for the state.

The numbers have dropped for avariety of reasons, including pollu-tion and predation. But many fisher-man, including Dick Pool and MarcGorelnik, blame water diversionsout of the Delta and the state agen-

cies that allow it for bringingsalmon to the brink of extinction.“If business as usual continues,

this fish is headed for extinction,”said Pool, the owner of Pro-TrollFishing Products in Concord.

Gorelnik, who serves on the boardof the Coastside Fishing Club,blames corporate farms, andSouthern California parks and golf courses for draining water awayfrom the Delta at the expense of salmon and the industry the fishsupports.

“State agencies are playing God,by diverting water to the SanJoaquin Valley. Access to salmon iscritical to the livelihood of coastal

communities,” Gorelnik said.It is not “Mother Nature” at work

in the salmon’s decline but some-thing more “sinister,” Gorelnik said.

But it is not all bad news forsalmon, said Tina Swanson, execu-tive director and chief scientist atThe Bay Institute.

“Salmon is a resilient species. If we improve conditions, they will beable to bounce back,” Swanson said.

Restoring the Delta’s ecosystemand improving fresh water inflowwill be key to the recovery of thespecies,” Swanson said.

A collaboration of state, federal,and local water agencies, state andfederal fish agencies and environ-mental groups are currently prepar-ing the Bay Delta Conservation Planwith the goal of identifying waterflow and habitat restoration actionsto recover endangered and sensitivespecies and their habitats in theSacramento-San Joaquin RiverDelta.

The plan, however, is in its earlystages and is not expected to becompleted until 2013.

For some fisherman, that may betoo long.

“We can’t wait 20 years in thefuture. We need emergency actions.We need help now or we will neverfish again,” Pro-Troll FishingProducts owner Pool said.

Peggy Beckett, 63, can’t wait 20years either for solving salmon’sdecline.

“I’m out of savings both personal-ly and for the business. I can’tafford employees,” Beckett said.

She has no retirement and is tooold for a career change, she said.

“Salmon is an indicator of whatwill happen to all of us,” Beckettsaid.

By Oswald AlonsoTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CUERNAVACA, Mexico — A14-year-old boy accused of partici-pating in four beheadings for aMexican drug cartel will be triedunder a state juvenile law that car-

ries a maximum of three years inprison if convicted, a judge saidSunday.

The juvenile court judge in thestate of Morelos made the rulingafter a daylong hearing on whetherthe federal government should han-dle the case because of the gravityof the allegations against the boy,

known as “El Ponchis.”The judge said that Mexican law

allows him to preside over casesinvolving minors facing federalcharges and that the teenager willface charges of murder, organizedcrime and other allegations in thestate of Morelos.

After the hearing, the boy wasescorted from the courthouse by 15state police of ficers. Dozens morestate and federal police were sta-tioned inside and outside the courtbuilding.

Authorities said they arrested ElPonchis on Thursday at an airportsouth of Mexico City with a 19-

year-old sister. Mexican officialsallege the boy was working for theCartel of the South Pacific, a branchof the splintered Beltran Leyvagang. The sister has said they wereheaded for Tijuana, where theyplanned to cross the border and seekrefuge with their stepmother in San

Diego.Many youths have been used by

drug cartels, but the story of ElPonchis may be the most shocking.A YouTube video that emerged amonth ago sparked talk of a childhit man — said by some to be asyoung as 12.

“I participated in four executions,

but I did it drugged and under threatthat if I didn’t, they would kill me,”the boy said when he was handedover to the federal prosecutorFriday.

Authorities identified the curlyhaired suspect only by his firstname, Edgar.

Morelos Gov. Marco AdameCastillo has said the boy was bornin San Diego, California, andMexican of ficials were researchingwhether he has dual nationality. AU.S. Embassy of ficial, who spokeon condition of anonymity due toembassy policy, said earlier thatAmerican officials had not con-

firmed his citizenship.As of Sunday his citizenship sta-

tus was still unclear as was the pos-sibility of the teenager being sent tothe United States.

Despite apparently being born inthe United States, he grew up in apoor, urban neighborhood packed

with businesses near the city of Cuernavaca, where the people whoknew him said everyone called himEl Ponchis since he was 4, althoughno one knew why.

On Saturday, a car with a speakeron its roof drove around the neigh-borhood narrating how the boy hadbeen captured.
