SAN FRANCISCO — Attorney
General Eric Holder is warning that
the federal government will not look
the other way, as it has with medical

make California the first state to
legalize pot.
Marijuana is illegal under federal
law, which drug agents will “vigor-

said.

Transcript in school bombing sealed
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The public will not learn what information a
criminal grand jury used to decide a former
Hillsdale High School student should stand
trial for a botched campus massacre plot,
according to a San Mateo County Superior
Court judge.
Judge Lisa Novak on Friday granted a
request by Alexander Robert Youshock’s
attorney to seal the grand jury transcript
detailing the testimony on which it indicted
the 18-year-old on two counts of attempted
murder, one count of exploding a destructive
device with intent to commit murder, one
count of possession of a destructive device in
a public place, one count of the use of explo-
sives in an act of terrorism and two counts of
possession of a deadly weapon.
Attorney Jonathan McDougall wanted the
transcript sealed out of concern pretrial pub-
licity of its contents would deprive his client
of a fair trial in San Mateo County. As a com-
promise, Assistant District Attorney Karen
Guidotti previously argued the transcript be
left public but with particular sections con-
cerning Youshock’s journal redacted.

Betty Carlson, a longtime aide to the late con-
gressman Tom Lantos and a community volun-
teer, died at her Burlingame home Sunday.
She was recently diagnosed with cancer. She
was 93.
Carlson was a registered nurse and volun-
teered at Mills-Peninsula Hospital in San
Mateo and was office manager for the San
Mateo congressman for nearly 25 years. She
was known for her large, black-framed round
glasses and compassionate yet professional
attitude. At Lantos’ office, she was a casework-
er specializing in issues affecting senior citi-
zens and veterans.
In 2007, she was inducted into the San Mateo
County Women’s Hall of Fame.
She is survived by her son Eric Carlson and
husband Sten Carlson, 98. Donations can be

Alexander After the decision,
Guidotti called the ruling
Youshock reasonable. McDougall
did not return a call for comment.
A previous hearing to decide if the tran-
script should be sealed was delayed by the
substantial documentation involved: more
than 100 pages of newspaper coverage, more
than 200 pages of defense briefs and the four-
volume transcript itself.
Transcripts are typically released 10 days
after they are turned over to the defense fol-
lowing an indictment unless there is a request
to seal it from the public.
The criminal grand jury indicted
Youshock in August, sidestepping a prelim-
inary hearing on the evidence, leaving many
details of the incident away from public dis-
semination. Prosecutors sought the indict-
ment while criminal proceedings were on
beneath the bridge after a crack was discovered
during an inspection Wednesday, a spokesman
said.
The crack was found in a steel girder on the
underside of the bridge that is part of a system
that allows the structure to move back and forth
during an earthquake, Caltrans spokesman Bob
Haus said.
The girder was installed as part of a seismic
retrofit completed in 2001. The far right west-
bound lane has been closed while crews install
steel reinforcement plates on the damaged gird-
er to make it even stronger than it was original-
ly, Haus said.
Four plates were originally planned to be
installed, but officials decided to add at least
one more, setting back the time the lane is
expected to reopen, he said.
Caltrans is making every effort to get the lane
open before Sunday’s 1:05 p.m. football game
at Candlestick Park the 49ers and Raiders.
During the closure, drivers are advised to
take alternate routes, such as the Dumbarton

Youshock is accused of arriving at the
Hillsdale High School campus at approxi-

many people as possible but particularly a
chemistry teacher. Prior to that Monday morn-
ing, Youshock reportedly compiled a list of
teachers assigned with the words “guilty” or
“not guilty,” ordered the explosive material
online while telling his mother he was con-
structing model rockets and videotaped him-
self preparing pipe bombs and wielding a
chain saw.
He allegedly arrived at Hillsdale with the
weapons and wearing a welder’s mask to pro-
tect his face during the attack and a plan to
commit suicide or take a hostage if police
wouldn’t shoot him dead. After setting off two
pipe bombs that injured no one, Youshock
reportedly attempted to start the chain saw but
had problems. Youshock was tackled by staff
members.
Youshock is charged as an adult and faces a
life sentence if convicted.
He remains in custody on no-bail status.

Transient declines
mental treatment
in fast-food attack
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A San Carlos transient who sprayed bear
repellent at a pedestrian and three fast-food
employees who he thought were trying to poi-
son him was sentenced to a year in jail after
declining to receive mental health treatment
instead.
Richard Allen English Jr., 52, was recom-
mended for Pathways, the county’s mental
health court program, but last week said he
did not want to enter. His defense attorney,
Mike Hroziencik, sought another week to
convince English otherwise but on Friday he
reiterated his stance.
English has a delusional disorder in which
he thinks most people are out to get him,
including employees at the fast-food restau-
rant and other local merchants, Hroziencik
said.
He believes being homeless is safer and will
not accept help from his family, Hroziencik
said.
English will follow his jail term with three
years supervised probation.
In August, English pleaded no contest to
two felonies, the use of tear gas and the use of
a tear gas weapon, in return for more than 16
months in prison and consideration of
Pathways.
English’s mental issues led him to believe
Carl’s Jr. employees were trying to poison
him, according to prosecutors.
On May 3, the homeless man who stays in a
creek near the restaurant at 1800 El Camino
Real used the facility’s rest room, then
approached the counter and sprayed a canister
of bear repellent at three employees before
fleeing. Outside, he told a pedestrian to run
and then sprayed him before again fleeing.
The workers sustained “significant pain and
discomfort,” according to the prosecution.
The next day a Carl’s Jr. employee spotted
English and contacted police. After his arrest,
English reportedly showed police where he
discarded the spray can and disclosed his poi-
soning theory.
Although English believed the employees
were poisoning him, he now understand that
using the pepper spray was wrong, Hroziencik
said.
English has been in custody in lieu of
$50,000 bail since his arrest.

phones during a presentation on specific
absorption rate, known as SAR. SAR, which
is regulated by the Federal
Communications Commission, measures
the amount of radiation a person’s head
absorbs from a cell phone. Councilman
Michael Brownrigg previously expressed
interest in a resolution requiring cell phone
stores in Burlingame to notify customers on
the SAR levels omitted from a phone before
it is sold.
The council meets 7 p.m. Monday, Oct. 18
at City Hall, 501 Primrose Road in
Burlingame.

THE DAILY JOURNAL
Private economy and loyalty to the U.S.
T
here has been an unspo-
ken, but ever-present, his-
torical issue underlying the
survival of all governments since
the feudal period, with its divine
right of kings, where the serfs and
the economy served only the kings.
After a tentative start with the
Magna Carta in 1215, which took
those absolute rights away from the
English kings, it was the French
Revolution in the 1790s that put the
cap on the idea that the economy
should serve only the kings and not
the people. Then, the 1917 Russian
Revolution, even though it was
later taken over by the Bolsheviks,
closed off that monarch and the
Chinese Civil War completed in
1949, under Mao, took that eco-
nomic power away from the war-
lords. And in a minor way, the
Cuban Revolution, even though
later proven to be an economic fail-
ure, at least redirected that econo-
my to the 92 percent in poverty in
that sad land.
Now, that is becoming an under-
lying and increasingly troublesome
issue in the United States. Is the
economic system developing since
250 years ago and, arguably, one of
the best ever, principally serving
the people in this country, today, or
are the people in this country serv-
ing the economic system at its
pleasure? Is the economic system
loyal to the country that shelters
and protects it? Or does the profit
motive alone dictate and supersede
that loyalty?
It’s a little difficult not to believe
the latter, when there have been
studied efforts to ship profits to
hidden havens abroad to avoid
taxes and to ship American jobs
abroad to enhance private profits?
This has become a critical issue
as never before, as there is more
evidence that large companies and
corporations, such a Meg
Whitman’s eBay and Carly
Fiorina’s Hewlett Packard shipped
ten of thousands of American jobs
abroad (and are running for public
office, presumably, without even
the American worker’s interest at
heart). These are just the tip of the
iceberg that we read about current-
ly but this has been going on for
decades under the radar, hardly
noticed by the beleaguered
American middle class. Their jobs
have been being shipped abroad by
those “so-called” loyal American
businesses not serving the country
which sheltered and nursed them.
The neurotic government con-
spiracy worriers have been writhing
Bring your own bags
Editor,
If stores want people to bring
their own bags, they should start
charging for disposable bags like
Germany, where they also make
you pay to get a shopping cart.
People will start bringing their own
bags to the store and learn to keep
them handy in their cars. Goodwill
already charges 5 cents a bag.

it is the economic systems that go under.’
in agony that the national govern-
ment would try to “one world” and
internationalize our economy, when
it has actually been the massive
industries and business entities that
have pierced and nearly demol-
ished the security of our national
political and economic borders.
Right now, there are reports that,
as the “Great Recession” recedes,
rather than filling the opening job
opportunities with American work-
ers, the jobs are being shipped
overseas. With these folks, it is
laughable to speak about a loyal
American economic system. I’ll bet
they all fly American flags over
their establishments and flank their
CEOs desks with great big ones.
The financial industry couldn’t
give a damn, either way, where
their funds are invested in other
countries, whether saintly or evil,
as long as there is a profit.
This we know from history:
When the economic systems do not
serve the nation in which they
reside, it is the economic systems
that go under. Just ask the
Russians, the Cubans and the
Chinese, among others, for a
starter.
As we already are hearing from a
number of sources, the wealth dis-
parity in this country is the greatest
since 1928, just before the break-
down in the economic system into
the “Great Depression.”
It will surely get worse with the
proven Republican indifference to
the lower economic classes and
their protection of the upper, those
sporting two of the best years in
American economic history. These
are the financial, corporate and
business entities that ride hard over
the vast middle and lower econom-
ic classes. How long will this indif-
ference work its mischief before
the economically deprived begin to
actively resist?
Is there anyone who does not
believe ours is a consumer-based
economy? Forgetting the two major
and arguably equally corrupt politi-
cal parties throwing dirt at each
other until the upcoming election,
if we don’t get money into the
hands of the middle and lower eco-
nomic classes to “consume,” we
will never get back on the econom-

Redwood City. Because the dis-
trict’s mission is to enhance health
care access and support health and
wellness programs, partnering with
Samaritan House to provide such
access and programs to uninsured,
low-income district residents was —
and continues to be — a natural fit.
Achieving the clinic’s mission
depends upon the support of many
agencies and resources, especially
volunteer physicians and communi-
ty members who donated more
than 48,000 hours. But it is the dis-
trict’s ongoing financial support
that makes operating the clinic pos-
sible.
During 2009-10, the district
granted $8.3 million to organiza-
tions serving everyone from infants
to the frail elderly. Included was a
$570,300 grant to our clinic, which
subsequently leveraged those funds
to provide nearly 5,000 medical

ic growth track.
If either of those parties in coop-
eration with loyal American busi-
nesses does not get that cash into
those right hands, it will be self-
fulfilling that we are a great nation
in decline.
What we really need is what his-
torians call a “benevolent dictator”
to take the whole mess in hand, as
Franklin Roosevelt did, and sort
out the loyalties and the economic
mess we are in, whomever or what-
ever brought it about.
Of course, we won’t likely get
that, again, so, sorry, I have a very
dim view of a future oligopoly of
very wealthy individuals, corpora-
tions and businesses able, again,
with their massive accumulation of
wealth, to dictate the future direc-
tion of this beleaguered land.
***
It is perversely amusing to listen
and watch the conservative pundits
attempt to rewrite history — and
they are succeeding — about the
evil “progressives” who have been
plotting for at least a century the
destruction of the republic by
expansion of government.
Those are not the evils I remem-
ber witnessing in my 85 years on
this planet. What I saw were agen-
cies and legislation created to cor-
rect or restrain abuses or failures of
the economic system. Even when I
was a pre-teen during the 1930s, I
recall issues of exploited child
labor, abusive number of working
hours without even a living wage,
filthy food production and slaugh-
tering, unregulated drugs and
phony home remedies, mine explo-
sions and cave-ins and lung dis-
eases and thugs hired to beat up
workers who were asking for
decent wages. And that is just
skimming the surface of my memo-
ries.
Now, we have these loquacious
pundits who write about how
Franklin Roosevelt paid little atten-
tion to the philosophical writings of
the Founding Fathers and all that
kind of stuff that one is able to
debate in affluent times. The reality
was he didn’t even have the luxury
of time for thinking about those
things. He was trying to keep mil-
lions of people from starving and

Government reports $1.3T budget deficit

By Martin Crutsinger
and Andrew Taylor
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The Obama
administration said Friday the federal
deficit hit a near-record $1.3 trillion for
the just-completed budget year.
That means the government had to
borrow 37 cents out of every dollar it
spent as tax revenues continued to lag
while spending on food stamps and
unemployment benefits went up as job-
lessness neared double-digit levels in a
struggling economy.
While expected, the eye-popping
deficit numbers provide Republican crit-
ics of President Barack Obama’s fiscal
stewardship with fresh ammunition less
than three weeks ahead of the midterm
congressional elections. The deficit was
$122 billion less than last year, a modest
improvement.
Voter anger over deficits and spending
are a big problem for Democrats this
election year. Republicans are slamming
Democrats — who face big losses in
November — for votes on Obama’s
$814 billion economic stimulus last year
and on former President George W.
Bush’s $700 billion bailout of Wall
Street.
Democrats say the recession would
have been worse if the government had-
n’t stepped in with those programs to
prop up the economy. They also note
that most of the bailout, which began
during the previous administration and
was supported by many Republicans in
Congress, has been repaid.
Outside of the bailout, the federal
budget went up by 9 percent in the 2010
budget year to $3.5 trillion, the
Congressional Budget Office reported
last week. Food stamp payments rose 27
percent as record numbers of people
took advantage of the programs, while
unemployment benefits rose 34 percent
as Congress extended benefits for the
long-term jobless.

Consumer prices, excluding gas, flat last month The Labor Department said Friday

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Consumer prices,
excluding energy, were flat in September
for the second straight month, a sign that
cost-conscious consumers are making it
difficult for businesses to charge more.
that the Consumer Price Index edged up
0.1 percent in September, after a 0.3 per-
cent rise in August. But outside food and
energy, core consumer prices were
unchanged. And in the past 12 months,
core prices rose by only 0.8 percent, the
smallest yearly gain in more than 49
years.
Overall consumer prices rose by 1.1
percent in the past year, the department
said.
That’s below the Federal Reserve’s
preferred range of 1.5 to 2 percent, and
heightened expectations among econo-
mists that the central bank will take
additional steps next month to spur eco-
nomic growth.

Fed plan for short-term

fix brings long-term risks
By Jeannine Aversa
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Federal Reserve
Chairman Ben Bernanke is balancing a short-
term fix for the economy with a long-term
gamble: His plan to buy Treasury bonds to
fight high unemployment and super-low infla-
tion now could ignite inflation later.
But Bernanke is signaling that doing noth-
ing would pose the biggest risk of all.
The Fed chief on Friday made his strongest
case yet for injecting billions more dollars
into the economy. Purchasing the bonds could
further drive down rates on mortgages, corpo-
rate debt and other loans.
Lower rates could lead people and compa-
nies to borrow and spend. And higher spend-
ing might help ease unemployment and invig-
orate the economy.
The Treasury purchases would have anoth-
er aim, too: to dispel any notion that consumer
prices will stay flat and might even fall. In his
speech Friday in Boston, Bernanke indicated
that Fed policymakers favor raising inflation,
which has all but vanished.
And more inflation could help the economy.
Here’s how:
Companies would feel more inclined to
increase prices. And shoppers who thought
prices were headed up would be more likely
to buy now rather than wait. Their higher
spending could embolden employers to step
up hiring. It would also help lift inflation.
But overhanging the Fed’s plan is the risk
that it would trigger runaway inflation months
or years from now.
Once investors began to fear approaching
inflation, they would demand higher rates on
bonds. Banks, too, would raise loan rates to
compensate for the higher inflation they
expect. Workers would demand higher pay.
Any strength the economy had managed to
gather could dissolve.

PHILADELPHIA — Roy
Halladay and Tim Lincecum
have little in common except
performance on the mound.
Nicknamed the Freak,
Lincecum is a shaggy-
haired, skinny kid who
looks more like a bat boy
than one of the best pitchers
in the majors.
Known as Doc, the bearded
Halladay is bigger, stronger and
can probably pass for a profes-

Lincecum is quirky. He has
an unorthodox delivery,
doesn’t ice his arm, and
munches on treats like Philly

Halladay is robotic. He has
perfect mechanics, a tireless work
ethic and doesn’t let anything pre-

Who’s the better pitcher?
They’ll showcase their stuff when
the San Francisco Giants play the two-

“It’s going to be a tremendous matchup,”

Dons take
out Bears
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The Aragon football team’s offense is going to want to save
the videotape from Friday’s home game against Menlo-
Atherton and watch it over and over again. When the Dons
offense is in a groove, it’s hard to stop.
The Dons moved the ball up and down the field against the
Bears, and while they didn’t score on every drive, they kept the
ball away from M-A’s suddenly explosive offensive as Aragon
pulled out a 28-14 win.
“No mistakes,” was how Aragon quarterback Anthony
Nichols described the offense. “That’s just plagued us this sea-
son. When we win games, we do it like that.”
Nichols played the game of his life, completing 11 of 13
passes for 221 yards and a touchdown. It was a slant pass to
James Egan, who turned it into a 78-yard touchdown that gave
the Dons a 21-7 lead with seven seconds left in the third quar-
ter that all but clinched the win.
“That slant, we hit it perfectly,” Nichols said. “What (coach
Steve) Sell does, we run the ball and get them with the pass. We
try to keep them off guard.”
The Aragon defense wasn’t too shabby either. While the
Dons did give up over 300 yards of offense, they limited the
Bears’ big plays and forced them to go on extended drives —
which the Bears couldn’t manage. Both their scores came on
long pass plays: in the first quarter, quarterback Jonathan Hoech
hit Michael Culhane on an underneath screen, who then
weaved his way down the field for a 72-yard score. A flag was
thrown on the play and it initially nullified the touchdown, but
after a discussion among the officials, they picked up the flag
and awarded the touchdown. M-A’s second score came in the
fourth quarter when Willy Fonua hooked up with Cameron
Moody on a fade pass down the left sideline for a 50-yard score.
“They made some big plays, like I knew they would,” said
Aragon coach Steve Sell.
The rest of the time, however, the Aragon defense held firm.
The Dons held the Bears to a paltry 30 yards rushing and while
they did give up nearly 300 yards passing, 60 of those yards
came on the Bears’ final drive of the game.
Aragon (1-1 PAL Bay, 2-3 overall), which has suffered from
turnovers this season, did not commit one against Menlo-
Atherton (1-1, 2-3). The Bears, on the other hand, committed

Roles reversed
in Battle of Bay
By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — An on-field feud between a coach
and star player. A bold proclamation from the team presi-
dent that a winless squad will be a playoff team. A team
that keeps losing games because of self-inflicted wounds.
As the Oakland Raiders and San Francisco 49ers head
into their first meeting in four years Sunday, there has been
a role reversal for the Bay Area rivals.
The Raiders (2-3) are the controversy-free team that
appears on an upswing, while the 49ers (0-5) are mired in
turmoil.
“It’s different. It hasn’t been that way since I’ve been
here,” said Pro Bowl cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha, who
joined the Raiders in 2003. “It is a change of things. I don’t
know how they’re handling it, but I know it’s a difficult
thing to handle.”
During a seven-year run of ineptitude in the Bay Area,
when neither team has posted a winning record much less
made the playoffs, the Niners at least have been able to
maintain they were the more stable franchise.
That’s not the case this year, as a team that came into the
season with aspirations of winning the NFC West hasn’t
even been able to win a single game yet. The start is the
worst for San Francisco since opening 0-7 in coach Bill
Walsh’s first season in 1979, but there are few signs this
model is two years away from a Super Bowl title.

USC hopes to stop two-game skid against Cal
By Greg Beacham
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — While an
alarming number of his fellow
Trojans spent the week nursing
injuries, Matt Barkley spent it recov-
ering from the exquisite pain of
watching Southern California lose its
last two games on field goals at the
final gun.
“It’s definitely weird,” the quarter-
back said. “I don’t remember the last
time in SC history we had two losses
in a row.”
That’s because it happened when
he was 11 years old.
When California visits the
Coliseum on Saturday, the unranked
Trojans (4-2, 1-2 Pac-10) will
attempt to end their first skid since
losing four straight in early 2001.
Last-second losses to Washington
and Stanford might only be the start
of USC’s heartaches for the next few
seasons, given their injury woes, a
scholarship-depleted roster and a dis-
mal defense currently ranked 100th
in the nation. But Barkley and his

San Jose State faces another top-10 team
By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN JOSE — With the initial
Bowl Championship Series stand-
ings set to be released Sunday, Boise
State coach Chris Petersen wants to
shy away from talk about polls,
strength of schedule and computer
rankings even more than usual this
week.
He’s willing to make an exception
when it comes to talking about the
schedule San Jose State has played
heading into Saturday night’s
matchup with the third-ranked
Broncos.
The Spartans (1-5, 0-1 WAC) have
already played four teams ranked in
the top 20 of the AP poll, losing at
No. 8 Alabama, No. 11 Utah, No. 18
Wisconsin and No. 19 Nevada going
into their showdown with Boise State
(5-0, 1-0).
obstacles thrown their way.
“It’s more than pride,” Barkley
said. “It’s upholding the tradition of
the school, and not wanting to be
known as the team with all those
losses. I know the character of this
team, and we’re not going to do that.”
According to the Trojans’ sports
information office, USC had lost
only four games on the final play in
school history before it happened on
consecutive Saturdays.
“It’s tough in these games coming
down to the wire,” said tailback Allen
Bradford, held to 33 yards by
Stanford after racking up 223 against
Washington. “The offense was good,
and the defense did as best they can.
It’s hard to swallow.”
Even if the Trojans are a shadow of
their former selves, a victory still
would be sweet for the Golden Bears
(3-2, 1-1), who have lost six straight
to USC — never scoring more than
17 points — since their landmark
2003 triple-overtime win in
Berkeley.
Cal was USC’s biggest Pac-10
obstacle during the early years of this
decade, and the Bears still hold a bit
of that inferiority complex, even
while Oregon and Stanford have
“San Jose State’s schedule is
ridiculous,” Petersen said. “You
don’t wish that on anybody. I think
sometimes a record can be a little bit
deceiving.”
It’s games like this week’s against
the undermanned Spartans that could
eventually cost the Broncos a spot in
the BCS championship game when
the regular season comes to an end.
While ESPN has projected that the
Broncos would be No. 1 in the BCS
standings if they had already come
out this week, upcoming games
against lesser teams like the
Spartans, Louisiana Tech and Utah
State could hurt Boise State’s place
in the computer rankings, which
make up one-third of the BCS stand-
ings, as well as the two polls that go
into the formula.
“We just don’t get hung up in those
types of things,” Petersen said. “We
just really worry about the things that

“It does enter my mind,” senior
quarterback Kevin Riley said. “Since
we’ve been here, we haven’t won
down there, so obviously it would be
nice going down there, coming out
firing and winning. ... It’d be fun, my
last year, just to beat USC. It’s anoth-
er game in the Pac-10, but it would
definitely be fun winning down
there.”
The Trojans’ offense has been
solid in its last two losses, scoring 66
points and getting the ball to fresh-
man playmakers Robert Woods and
Dillon Baxter. The USC defense
coordinated by high-priced assistant
coaches Monte Kiffin and Ed
Orgeron has been largely atrocious,
yielding nearly 429 yards per game
while holding just one of the
Trojans’ first six opponents under 30
points.
Several reasons are obvious from
the scene at Thursday’s practice,
we can control. The rest will take
care of itself. Those aren’t just
words. That’s what we believe.
That’s what we’ve always felt around
here. If we take care of our business,
it seems to have always worked out
for us.”
The Broncos have done just fine no
matter who they’ve played this year,
whether it’s been heralded teams
from major conferences like Virginia
Tech or Oregon State, or some lesser
lights like New Mexico State,
Wyoming or Toledo.
Their 19-game winning streak is
the longest in the nation following
Alabama’s loss last week at South
Carolina.
In the three games against
unranked teams so far this season,
Boise State has outscored the opposi-

USC’s defensive line has too little
depth, the linebacking corps has
been unimpressive and the secondary
is inexperienced. In a measure of
their desperation, the Trojans spent
the week considering whether to ful-
fill Woods’ dream of playing both
ways by helping out as a nickel back.
“It’s something I’ve thought about

Cal carved up UCLA’s defense
during last week’s 35-7 victory in
Berkeley with a brutally effective
running game, but coach Jeff Tedford
is aware of the Trojans’ deficiencies
in pass defense, even if he’s too cau-

“This week, we have to mix it up,”
Tedford said. “There’s no way you’re
just going to live on one phase of the
game against SC. They’re just too
good to do that, and so we’re going
to have to try to keep them off bal-

al categories despite giving up 52
points to Nevada’s unorthodox Pistol
offense last month.
“I was pretty sure that it was going

Boise State’s games against ranked
teams are spread out. After the

Bonds trial includes former players

SAN FRANCISCO — Federal prose-
cutors on Friday submitted the lineup of
witnesses they intend to call during the
much-delayed Barry Bonds perjury trial
and it includes Rockies first baseman
Jason Giambi and the home run king’s
former personal trainer at the center of
the case.
Bonds has pleaded not guilty to lying
to a grand jury in 2003 when he denied
knowingly taking steroids. The former
Giants star’s trial is scheduled to start
March 21 in San Francisco.
The trial was delayed for two years
while prosecutors unsuccessfully
appealed a judge’s order barring them

Bonds’ personal trainer, Greg Anderson,
unless the trainer testified.

The Niners’ drama began in training
camp, when running back Glen Coffee
quit the team, Kentwan Balmer refused
to show up and was traded to Seattle,
and tight end Vernon Davis and receiver
Michael Crabtree had a heated con-
frontation in practice.
There was a season-opening rout
against the Seahawks, when the offense
struggled to even get plays off on time.
That led to accusations by coach Mike
Singletary that a “rat” was leaking criti-
cisms of offensive coordinator Jimmy
Raye.
Then came a late-game collapse in the
home opener against the Super Bowl
champion New Orleans Saints and
another blowout at Kansas City that led
to Raye’s abrupt firing. There was also
the release of popular veteran Michael
Lewis, who left the team after getting
upset with his diminished role.
Things only got worse from there.
Nate Clements’ fumble on an intercep-
tion return, when it seemed like the
Niners had a game won in Atlanta, led to
another tight loss.
That was followed by last week’s
nationally televised shouting match
between Singletary and Alex Smith,
when the coach planned to bench his
prison rather than
testify against
Bonds. The prosecu-
tors said they expect
Anderson to keep his
vow of silence and
have asked U.S.
District Judge Susan
Illston to jail him if
Barry Bonds he refuses to testify
when called.
Anderson previously spent a year in
prison for refusing to testify before a
grand jury investigating Bonds’ perjury
case. Anderson also pleaded guilty to
steroids distribution for his participation
in a steroids ring centered at the now-
defunct Bay Area Laboratory Co-opera-
tive in Burlingame.
Bonds’ former girlfriend, Kimberly
Bell, also is expected to testify.
Prosecutors said Bonds told her he was
taking steroids prior to the 2000 baseball
season.
“Ms. Bell will further testify to per-
quarterback before Smith campaigned to
stay on the field against Philadelphia.
“When I look at the first five games
that we’ve had, and you know a lot of
different things have transpired, but
through those things, I think we have
become a better football team,”
Singletary said. “I think as time goes on,
we will show that.”
Clearly team president Jed York
agrees. He sent a text message to an
ESPN reporter earlier in the week that
the Niners would still win the NFC West
despite the 0-5 start.
In a weak division where no team has
won a road game out of the division, that
is not an impossibility. But the Niners
can’t wait much longer to turn things
around.
“I think this team is the most talented,
the most mature that I’ve been on,” said
Smith, who responded to the near bench-
ing and harsh booing with two late
touchdown passes against the Eagles.
“It’s unfortunate that we’re in this situa-
tion. But we’re in it. We made this bed.
We have to deal with it. We have to get
ourselves out of it.”
What’s going on for San Francisco is
more typical of what happened across
the bay in recent years.
But so far for the Raiders there have
been no feuds between coach and player
as happened with Art Shell and Jerry

expected to discuss his own steroid use
and his relationship with Anderson.

Instead there have been two wins,
including last week’s rally against San
Diego that snapped a 13-game losing
streak to the Chargers, and two close
losses in games the Raiders could have
won without mistakes down the stretch.
“I do think we have changed our men-
tality,” Cable said. “We’ve changed how
we do business from Wednesday to
Sunday. Now it’s a matter of going out

think we’re getting close to that. Where
are we at? I think we’re about three quar-
ters of the way there. We’re not there yet
but we’re getting there.”
A win this week would be a big step as
the Raiders have not won back-to-back
games since the end of the 2008 season.
The Niners are looking for just one
victory, especially against a rival, to
quiet the critics for even a brief moment.
“To some people, to the fans, whether
we go 1-15 or however many games it is,
we beat the Raiders and they’d be some-
what happy,” linebacker Patrick Willis
said. “For us, it’s about just going out
and winning, playing at a high level and

Yankees rally from five-run deficit

ARLINGTON, Texas — The New York
Yankees are already making it look like the
1990s all over again for Texas.
Alex Rodriguez scooted home soon after his
two-run single that nearly was a double-play
grounder, and the Yankees rallied for five runs in

headfirst dive for an infield hit started the big
rally the next inning against C.J. Wilson and four
relievers.
Texas threatened in the ninth against Mariano
Rivera, putting a runner on second with one out.
But Rivera struck out Michael Young and retired
Josh Hamilton on a grounder.
New York has won 10 consecutive postseason
Yankees 6, Rangers 5
games against the Rangers, who were knocked
out of the playoffs by the Yankees in their only
three previous playoffs appearances (1996, 1998
and 1999). Texas is 0-7 in home playoff games,
five of those losses to the Yankees.
The Yankees became the first team to win a
postseason game after trailing by at least four
runs in the eighth since the 2005 Astros, accord-
ing to STATS LLC. Houston was behind Atlanta
6-1 in the eighth of NL division series Game 4
and went on to win 7-6 in 18 innings.

later in the inning stopped the Rangers from get-

Darren Oliver, the only player who had been in
a playoff game with Texas before this season,
came in with a 5-2 lead and walked the only two
batters he faced.
Rodriguez, who had already struck out twice
and made a fielding error to the delight of his for-
mer Texas fans, hit a hard grounder that hopped
over Young’s glove at third base. The single came
against submarining right-hander Darren O’Day,
who faced only one batter and took the loss.
Cano, who had homered an inning earlier, then
had an RBI single off lefty Clay Rapada, who
didn’t face another batter. Marcus Thames fol-
lowed with the single off Derek Holland that
drove home A-Rod.
Dustin Moseley, the second of four Yankees’
relievers, struck out four in his two perfect
innings.

more conventional than Tim with his unique delivery. But when it
comes down to it, he’s in the same position. They have four-plus
pitches they can throw at any time with good command.”
Both pitchers were sensational in their postseason debuts last
week.
Halladay threw the second no-hitter in postseason history in
Philadelphia’s 4-0 victory over Cincinnati. A day later, Lincecum
tossed a two-hitter with 14 strikeouts in San Francisco’s 1-0 win
over Atlanta.
Neither guy expects an encore. It doesn’t mean they’re not trying.
“That’s the beauty of it. I don’t look at it as pressure. I look at it
as a challenge,” Halladay said. “Getting to this point, you put in so
much work to get here that once you do, it’s been nothing but
excitement. And you don’t feel like there’s a certain standard you
I normally pitch, execute pitches and be aggressive. It’s been noth-
ing but a challenge and something I look forward to. I just haven’t
felt the pressure of having to live up to something or do something.”
Lincecum certainly won’t be overwhelmed by the spotlight.
“You get a taste of what it’s like to play in postseason ball. I think
it can’t do anything but help me,” he said about his success in his
first start. “I feel like the All-Star game last year helped me prepare
for the postseason scenario, just with the heightened atmosphere
and how crazy it gets. But my approach on this game is the same as
any other start Obviously, it’s a big game. But I don’t want to get
too overamped. I want to take it just like any other start.”
Halladay lived up to enormous expectations in his first season in
Philadelphia after 12 years with Toronto. The 33-year-old right-
hander finished 21-10 with a 2.44 ERA. He tied CC Sabathia for
most wins and led the majors in complete games (nine), shutouts
(four) and innings (250 2-3).
Halladay threw a perfect game in May, made his seventh All-Star
game and is the leading candidate to win his second Cy Young
Award.
While Lincecum is freakish in that he doesn’t follow standard
practices, Halladay goes overboard. He’s legendary for his workout
routine that starts at 5:30 a.m. EDT.
“There’s never a guarantee of whether a guy’s going to be good
or not, or how good he can be,” Halladay said. “It just kind of hap-
pens. I think there’s a lot of internal makeup that’s involved. But it’s
a great part about this game. You don’t have to be 6-9 and 280
and sizes and do the job. So that’s what makes it fun.”
Cole Hamels, the 2008 World Series MVP, said he tried working
out with Halladay once in spring training. He didn’t make it back
for another day.
“It’s insanity. I have a newborn. I needed every minute of sleep I
can get it,” Hamels said. “He gets there at 5:30. That means he’s up
at 4:30. That’s the personality he has and he’s had success with it.”
Even after throwing a no-hitter, Halladay didn’t take a break from
his normal day. He turned down an invitation to David Letterman’s
“Late Show” and other media appearances.
“As far as who he is and how he goes about things and what
makes him good, those are the things that I feel like I’ve learned
about him,” Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said. “And the things
that I think are better than what I really imagined was definitely his
command and his routine. It’s so regimented, He’s so focused and
everything.”
Lincecum, the reigning two-time Cy Young Award winner, had
an up-and-down year after emerging as the most dominant pitcher
in the league in his first two full seasons. The 26-year-old righty
rebounded in September after a career-worst five-start losing streak
in August, and finished 16-10 with a 3.43 ERA.
The Halladay-Lincecum matchup is the marquee pitching duel in
a series that features a handful of aces. San Francisco flip-flopped
its Nos. 2 and 3 starters, and will send Jonathan Sanchez against
three-time All-Star Roy Oswalt in Game 2. Matt Cain faces Hamels
when the series shifts to AT&T Park on Tuesday.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Andre Ward will defend his
WBA super middleweight title against Sakio
Bika as part of a split-site doubleheader on
Nov. 27.
Ward was supposed to face former Olympic
teammate Andre Dirrell in the final group-
stage match of the Super Six World Boxing
Classic, but Dirrell pulled out because of
headaches and dizziness stemming from his
disqualification victory against Arthur
Abraham in March.
In the opener of the doubleheader, Abraham
will face Carl Froch for the vacant WBC title
in their Super Six match at the Hartwall
Areena in Helsinki.
The Super Six is a modified round-robin
tournament that began with six fighters, with
each earning points based on the outcome of
three guaranteed fights — two points for a vic-
tory, one point for a draw and a bonus point for
a knockout. The four fighters with the most
points would advance to seeded semifinals
scheduled for early next year.

Mediate keeps lead at Frys.com Open

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN MARTIN — Rocco Mediate
holed a 7-iron approach from 160
yards for eagle on the par-4 fourth
hole and finished with a 6-under 65
on Friday to increase his lead to
three strokes in the Frys.com Open.
The 46-year-old Mediate, looking
for his first PGA Tour victory in
eight years, made the eagle on the
426-yard hole a day after a hole-in-
one on the par-3 third hole. He had
a 13-under 129 total on the
CordeValle Golf Club course in the
Fall Series event.
Ryudi Imada (67) was second,
and Dean Wilson (64) and David
Duval (65) followed at 9 under.
U.S. Ryder Cup player Rickie
Fowler shot a 65 to join Tim Herron
(67), Will MacKenzie (68), Henrik
Stenson (67) and Bo Van Pelt (68) at
8 under.
Mediate had eagles in consecutive
rounds for the first time since 2001.
“It is just weird,” Mediate said. “A
lot of stuff is happening. When that
went in, I was ’Really?’ I was
pleased, but shocked.”
Mediate, for years troubled by
back problems, was slightly on edge
because of his 7:20 a.m. tee time,
concerned that he couldn’t get loose

made up for a later bogey. Wilson said he took advantage of
“That was my record by miles, 34 smoother greens, birdieing six of
eight holes at one point, recovering
nicely from an early bogey.
“I think there is a lot of danger out
there,” Wilson said. “I need to drive
the ball well, get it on the fairway.
The greens were nice and smooth in
the morning, versus yesterday when
they were a little bumpy.”
Duval said he played consistently
well in the second round.
“I wasn’t real close to a bogey,”
he said. “I felt like I hit the ball pret-
ty well. I had a few mistakes but I
came here and have gotten into a
rhythm so far.”
Fowler birdied four of his final
five holes to move into the top five.

free of gangs but the task force is keeping it
under control. The task force hits the streets
daily for 16 weeks each summer, then month-
ly for maintenance. The numbers of arrests
and seizures are up this year but Capovilla
credits that to greater training and policing as
much as increased gang activity. The task
force seized 33 guns this summer and Colma
Police Chief Robert Lotti said “these are not
little pea shooters.”
Displayed in front of Lotti were other sou-
venirs of the task force efforts: blades, hand-
guns, red and blue baseball bats, semi-auto-
matic weapons, swords hidden in canes —
even a heavy piece of rebar attached to a han-
dle.
The world of modern gangs is a far cry from
two decades ago when Chief Deputy District
Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said he prosecuted
his first gang case which involved two base-

The tradition dates back to 1970, when the
Main Street Committee for Beautification
was appointed by the Half Moon Bay City
Council to launch a paint-in and tree-plant-
ing program to restore downtown. In 1971,
the festival began as a way to raise funds for
local nonprofits and civic organizations.

escalated and the task force should be com-
mended for facing it, said Wagstaffe, who will
take over as district attorney at the end of the
year.
One new twist to gang culture is “net bang-
ing,” in which phones and texting is used to
ous projects — like community service
organizations and scholarships for Half
Moon Bay High School students — since
the festival began. Notably, funds helped
renovate City Hall, paint historic buildings,
install old-fashioned street lights, plant
trees, wire underground Main Street, con-
struct two parks and purchase holiday lights.
Classic festival favorites remain like
gourd-flavored adult beverages and Farmer
Mike, who will be celebrating his 25th year
as the official pumpkin carver of the event.
New this year is the Smashing Pumpkins:
Battle of the Bands, which starts at 3 p.m.
daily at the Safeway family stage in the
Bank of America parking lot at 620 Main St.

no pun intended — is this year’s champion

After Los Angeles’ gang problem exploded,
officials there warned others not to make the
same mistake of not addressing it early before
future members even hit junior high, he said.
Safeway World Championship Pumpkin

Fifty-year-old Root’s pumpkin wasn’t
large enough to break records, but it will be
on display during the parade and available
for photos, if any fans are interested.
Scales became part of the annual gourd
activities in 1974 as a challenge to
Circleville, Ohio — which then proclaimed
itself “Pumpkin Capital of the World. John
Minaidis of Half Moon Bay won the weigh-
off that year with a 132-pound pumpkin. As
a result, Half Moon Bay is now the World
Pumpkin Capital.
In 2001, the pumpkins began tipping the
scale at over 1,000 pounds. Last year’s win-
ner, Don Young, of Des Moines, Iowa, main-
tains the title of heaviest pumpkin ever in the
competition with his 1,658-pound gourd.
Aside from the festival offerings, a num-
ber of pumpkin patches are available on the
outskirts of town offering pumpkins, pony
THE DAILY JOURNAL
The task force now combines its searches
and field contacts with school and diversion
programs, Capovilla said.
Wagstaffe said there are statistics available
on how many of the summer’s arrests lead to
prosecution and conviction but that gang case
filings are up. Conviction rates, too, are high-
er than those of other crimes.
The flip side of the task force’s success is
challenges housing the gang members in the
county jail. The overall population can
include up to 20 percent gangmember which
must be separated so that Sureños and
Norteños don’t battle. However, if too many
of one gang are housed together they try tak-
ing over the pod, Munks said.
On top of existing overcrowding at the jail,
the gang aspect adds another layer of concern
but that does not mean suspects will be turned
away or released unnecessarily, he said.
“There’s always room at the inn when it
comes to getting violent criminals off the
street,” Munks said.

Full array of Japanese art
San Francisco’s Legion of Honor Museum
presents a Saturday filled with events
marking the opening of The Japanese Print
in the Era of Impressionism.
The exhibit introduces audiences to the
development of the Japanese print over
two centuries (1700-1900) and reveals this
art form’s profound influence on Western
art during the era of Impressionism.
This exhibition complements the de Young
Museum’s presentations of paintings from
the Musée d’Orsay,many of which are
aesthetically indebted to concepts of
Japanese art.Among the activities at the
Legion are Taiko drumming,an exciting,
modern art form with ancient roots
Yippee-ki-yay I
lacking in ‘Red’
Film a leaden caper for Willis
By David Germain
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Critics often gripe about the
blink-and-you’ve-missed-it frenzy
of action sequences in today’s
Hollywood thrillers.
The spy caper “Red” admirably
rejects the trend, slowing things
down to a digestible pace appropri-
ate for vintage-bordering-on-geri-
atric heroes Bruce Willis, Morgan
Freeman, John Malkovich and
Helen Mirren.
Yet despite the impressive cast,
which includes Mary-Louise
Parker, Richard Dreyfuss and
Ernest Borgnine, this latest adapta-
tion of a hip graphic novel fails to
fill in the spaces between the action
with anything terribly interesting.
Director Robert Schwentke
(“Flightplan,” “The Time Traveler’s
Wife”) aims for a mix of action and
comedy but never quite delivers on
either.
The action is OK, though nothing
you haven’t seen done better a hun-
dred times before. Some of the gun-
play becomes interminable, the
filmmakers turning buildings and
vehicles into Swiss cheese as char-

Trolling in the
online waters
By Jeremy Venook
should know better than to read
YouTube comments. And yet, on Oct.
10, what would have been John
Lennon’s 70th birthday, I scrolled down to
the comments section on a video of Imagine.
Most of the comments on
that day were high praise
for the rock icon; but
mixed in were comments
such as “happy birthday
in hell, hippie!” and
“john is a gay virgin.” A
few days later, I saw a
related phenomenon —
on a news article about
oil policy, somebody
commandeered the comments section to harp
on the ills of teachers unions and standard-
ized testing.
The people who left these comments are
trolls. No, that’s not just a random insult —
“troll” is a popular label that has cropped up
to describe the people who log on to Internet
forums to make inflammatory comments, for
the kick of annoying people they don’t even
know, to indulge their prejudices anonymous-
ly, or just to get a fleeting moment of atten-
tion. Like junk e-mails and flashing adver-
tisements, they are an ever-present reminder
of what many would call the filth of the
Internet.
As irritating as trolls are, though, they are
at the same time extremely pitiable. Though
some seem to be motivated by malice alone,
it’s hard to imagine that all trolls are. Instead,
it seems that some fall victim the nature of
the discussion boards themselves. As I see it,
there are several factors that lead to their
thoughtlessness.
First, there’s the anonymity — chances are,
nobody else on that forum will recognize
your username, and even so, there’s basically
no way they’ll ever know who was the one
who posted that insult. Then, there’s the com-
plete lack of actual interaction — the lack of
face-to-face contact and non-verbal cues such
as body language and inflection can dehu-
manize others to the point in which a troll
can feel like they’re debating against text and
not a real person. Third, there’s the fleeting
nature of online comments — when you can
get your message out to thousands with only
a few keystrokes, then sign off with a quick
click, there’s nothing to stop you from saying
whatever you want and getting away with it.
After all, if somebody does call you out, you
can just delete both your comment and your
profile and be done with it. And then again,
there are some who are just seeking a place
to spread the hate around, to find others who
will agree with their prejudices.
Among the problems with trolls are that
they have a tendency to drag down the level
of discussion and that their mere existence
exposes a growing lack of civility in the
modern world. In my view, they abuse their
access to the Internet, perhaps the most pub-
lic of all public forums, to make their out-
landish comments. Meanwhile, they spew
hateful speech on any and all topics imagina-
ble. For every person who makes such a
comment as a troll, chances are there’s some-
body sitting at home cheering the troll on,

Not one hole in ‘Superior Donuts’
By Keith Kreitman
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
There are a number of elements that
make up a successful stage work: supe-
rior plot concept, superior script, supe-
rior cast and often, additionally, superi-
or direction and even superior stage
settings.
“Superior Donuts” by Tracy Letts,
has all of these elements. It’s a highly
entertaining drama/comedy. Perhaps, I
may be a little more supportive because
the locale is in my hometown Chicago.
But I am able to certify the depiction
is quite faithful to my own memory.
It is set in a doughnut shop in the
Uptown neighborhood of Chicago, one
that has seen its better days. An inter-
esting casting detail is the characters
are drawn from the diversity of popula-
tion that is Chicago and the set
includes a famous Chicago landmark, a
rumbling elevated structure in the
background. And there is a snowmak-
ing machine dumping lots of artificial
snow in the background that reminds
me of why I moved to California.
The shop owner, Arthur
Przybyszewski (Howard Swain) is a
former hippie, anti-war protester and
draft-dodging Polish-American. The
affluent shop owner next door is Max
Tarasov (Soren Oliver) of Russian ori-
gin, who yearns to buy Arthur out so he
may expand his own successful busi-
ness. It wouldn’t be authentic Chicago
if there weren’t, also, an Irish-
American cop, Randy Osteen (Julia
Brothers). Her partner is an African-
American James Bailey (Michael J.
Asberry).
Just as Arthur, at 60 years old, with
his ex-wife dead and his only child dis-
tant from him, is burrowed deeply into
the resignation of living out his life in
the shop his father founded, a spark of
life enters into it in the form of Franco
Wicks (Lance Gardner), a super-bright,
high-octane driven, 21-year-old
African-American who applies for the
job vacated by a former employee who,
in a political snit, quit and then trashed
the shop.
Franco has had a mixed life, much of
it in the streets, working for lowlifes,
such as Luther Flynn (Gabriel Marin),
with his enforcer Kevin Magee (Elias
Escobedo), and running up huge gam-
bling losses. But he moves in on the
weakly resistant Arthur and, in effect,

As the bonding between the two is
slowly developing, Arthur discovers
that Franco is an extremely gifted nov-
elist, who has his writing on tablets and
scratch paper, accumulated since he
was 14 years old, bound in string in a
huge, sloppy package
In secondary plots, Arthur is hardly
aware that Officer Randy has a crush
on him. Also, much fun is had with
Officer Bailey’s addiction to a group
TRACY MARTIN
that dresses up and performs Star Trek
characters.
Weaving in and out of the action is a
homeless, but very wise Lady Boyle
(Joan Mankin), whom Arthur regularly
feeds free doughnuts and coffee each
day.
But the core of the story is how
Arthur and Franco come to need each
other, especially after a dark turn in the
plot has devastated Franco physically
and emotionally.
There is really nothing so unique
about such a story line. It has been used
many times before. But it is Tracy
Letts’ humorous dialogue that is
unique, especially the sometimes-
clumsy ways various ethnic groups
deal with each other.
Lance Gardner is simply outstanding
as Franco. It is an award-worthy high
voltage performance that never goes
over the edge.
Howard Swain as Arthur is utterly
believable, even in his many mono-
logues that fill in the background of his
troubled life. There isn’t a weak one in
the entire cast.
This is the kind of a play where one
needs only to sit back and have the
humor wash right over. The dialogue is
that good.

Rapper T.I.headed back to prison for 11 months
ATLANTA — A federal judge revoked rapper T.I.’s proba-
tion Friday and ordered him back to prison for 11 months.
The Atlanta native, whose real name is
Clifford Harris Jr., was in federal court fol-
lowing his arrest last month in Los Angeles
on suspicion of drug possession. He was
on probation after serving 10 months
behind bars on federal weapons charges.
“I think Mr. Harris had had about the
limit of second chances,” U.S. District
Court Judge Charles Pannell Jr. said,
according to The Atlanta Journal-
Constitution. T.I.
During the hearing, T.I. begged Pannell
not to send him back to prison, saying he needed to get help for
drug addiction. He told the judge he “screwed up” and plead-
ed for mercy.
“I want drugs out of my life. If I can get the treatment and
counseling I need ... I can beat this,” T.I. told the judge, accord-
ing to U.S. attorney spokesman Patrick Crosby. “I need help.
For me, my mother, my kids, I need the court to give me
mercy.”

NEW YORK — It’s less exotic than Australia, but still pret-

Oprah Winfrey surprised audience members at Comedy

Stewart planned the Oct. 30 rally shortly after Fox News

Movie highlights trophy shooting in South Africa
By Michelle Faul
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BROEDERSTROOM, South Africa —
Lions raised in captivity in South Africa are
set loose in enclosed areas where hunters,
many from the United States, gun them down.
The toll: about 1,000 lions each year.
Kevin Richardson hopes a new movie
“White Lion,” which opens in a few U.S.
cities on Friday, will give people second-
thoughts about participating in such hunts.
“I just can’t understand how anyone would
want to shoot a lion that is clearly confined to
a finite space with absolutely no hope in hell
of ever escaping the so-called hunter,” said
Richardson, a self-taught “Lion Whisperer”
and first-time film producer. “Canned lion
hunting, in my opinion, is likened to fishing
with dynamite in a pond and then calling
yourself a fisherman.”
“White Lion” is about a rare white lion,
who as a cub is cast out of his pride because
of his color. He is near starvation when he
befriends an older lion who teaches him the
ways of the wild. John Kani, a Tony Award-
winning actor and playwright, is the story-
teller. A young man helps the lion, whose
name is Letsatsi, because his Shangaan tribal
tradition says a white lion is God’s messenger
and must be protected. Tension builds as
Gisani becomes a tracker on a game farm
where he and a foreign hunter encounter
Letsatsi.

Africa, worth $91.2 million a year, according
to the Professional Hunters Association of
South Africa. Foreign tourists pay up to
$40,000 to shoot a lion.
The government promotes hunting as a rev-
enue source and calls it a “sustainable utiliza-
tion of natural resources.” Provincial govern-
ments sell permits allowing hunters to kill
rhinos, elephants — even giraffes. Hunters
killed 1,050 lions in 2008, the last year for
which figures are available, according to the
South African Predator Breeders Association.
The hunters’ association says 16,394 for-
eign hunters — more than half from the
United States — killed more than 46,000 ani-
mals in the year ending September 2007.
Almost all lions hunted under permit in
South Africa are bred in captivity. But a new
report by Animal Rights Africa says animals
that wander out of the huge Kruger National
Park into neighboring private reserves have
become fair game.
About 3,600 lions were kept in breeding
facilities in 2009, to be sold to zoos, safari
farms and for hunting on game farms, said
Albi Modise, spokesman for South Africa’s
Department of Environment.

incompatible with South Africa’s push into
ecotourism, noting that ad campaigns promot-
ing tourism and game viewing showcase the
same species that are offered up to be hunted.
The government in 2007 introduced legisla-
tion that would reduce the financial incentive
to breed lions for the hunt but the Predator
Breeders Association challenged the laws and
earlier this year won an appeal.
Richardson, the movie’s producer, first
befriended a pair of lion cubs at the Lion Park
outside Johannesburg 12 years ago, when the
cubs were 6 months and he was 23. He began
shortening his hours as a therapist in postoper-
ative rehabilitation to play with his new
friends. Soon, park owner Rodney Fuhr offered
him a part-time job which became full time.
Today, Richardson cares for 39 lions at his
800-hectare (2,000-acre) Kingdom of the
White Lion in Broederstroom, an hour and a
half drive from Johannesburg, where the film
was shot to include tawny gold lions as well
as those born white because of a recessive
gene.
Lions are nocturnal and spend most of the
day sleeping, so filming was limited to a cou-

another couple in the afternoon — if the cats

Rebecca Pidgeon, who’s about as menacing
as, well, a pigeon); and a ruthless corporate
profiteer (Dreyfuss, and who knows what he

snarling, unpleasant, thoroughly uninteresting
creep).
The 93-year-old Borgnine has a couple of

were willing. Letsatsi was portrayed by sever-
al different lions over the four years it took to
make the movie. A cuddly cub filmed in the
summer of 2006 might be sprouting a
mohawk-style tuft of hair the following year,
the precursor to a mane.
Richardson said he breaks every rule in the
book in handling lions. On a recent morning,
the lions welcomed Richardson with rum-
bling purrs. One shut his eyes in ecstasy and
rolled onto his back as Richardson scratched
his chin. Another licked Richardson’s hand,
the tongue as rough as sandpaper. Too many
licks can cause bleeding.
Two 400-pound (180-kilogram) lions wres-
tled him to the ground and a lioness jumped
on his back, covering Richardson for a tense
minute. He emerged from a tangle of furry
blond limbs, face red. One lion threw a casu-
al paw on Richardson’s shoulder.
“Ugh, no claws you naughty boy!” he
admonished, slapping away a paw larger than
his face.
He’s been attacked by his lions twice. Once
during filming, a lion named Thor grabbed
Richardson’s arm and pinned him against the
cage holding the camera crews, who looked
on terrified and unable to help.
“I thought: There goes my arm, and it’s my
own fault. I was provoking him to get a fight
sequence that we needed,” Richardson said.
The lion stared him in the eyes for what
seemed five minutes but couldn’t have lasted
more than a few seconds, before releasing
him, he recalled.

mad dog of the bunch, Malkovich is supposed

too real to draw consistent laughs.
Willis does a decent variation on his “Die

they go to Napa. This will become the new
Amsterdam.”
If the ballot measure passes, the state would
regulate recreational pot use. Adults could
possess up to one ounce of the drug and grow
small gardens on private property. Local gov-
ernments would decide whether to allow and
tax sales.
The Justice Department remains committed
to enforcing the Controlled Substances Act in
all states, Holder said.
“We will vigorously enforce the CSA
against those individuals and organizations
that possess, manufacture or distribute mari-
juana for recreational use, even if such activi-
ties are permitted under state law,” he wrote.
The letter was dated Wednesday and was
obtained by the Associated Press.
Holder also said legalizing recreational
marijuana would be a “significant impedi-
ment” to the government’s joint efforts with
state and local law enforcement to target drug
traffickers, who often distribute pot alongside
cocaine and other drugs.
The attorney general said the ballot mea-
sure’s passage would “significantly under-
mine” efforts to keep California cites and
towns safe.
Officials in Los Angeles County, where
authorities have aggressively moved to tamp
down on an explosion of medical marijuana
dispensaries, vowed that they would still
assist the federal government in drug investi-
gations.
County Sheriff Lee Baca and District
Attorney Steve Cooley said at a news confer-
ence that the law would be unenforceable
because it is trumped by federal laws that pro-
hibit marijuana cultivation and possession.
“We will continue as we are today regard-
less of whether it passes or doesn’t pass,”
Baca said. His deputies don’t and won’t go
after users in their homes, but public use of
the drug will be targeted, he said.
Both gubernatorial candidates — Democrat
Jerry Brown and Republican Meg Whitman
— oppose Prop 19 and declined comment
Friday.
The ex-Drug Enforcement Administration
chiefs sent a letter to Holder in August calling
on the Obama administration to sue California
if Prop 19 passes. They said legalizing pot
presented the same threat to federal authority
as Arizona’s recent immigration law.
In that case, Justice Department lawyers
filed a lawsuit to block the enforcement of the
law, saying that it infringed on federal powers
to regulate immigration and therefore violated
the U.S. Constitution. The case is now before
a federal appeals court.
Experts say the two situations are not the
same.
If Arizona wants to crack down on illegal
immigration more strictly than the federal
government, the U.S. can act to prevent police
in the state from enforcing the law, said

professor who studies the conflicts between
state and federal marijuana laws.
If California prevents police from enforcing
the stricter federal ban on marijuana, the
Supreme Court has ruled that the federal gov-
ernment cannot order local law enforcement
to act, he said.
It “is a very tough-sounding statement that
the attorney general has issued, but it’s more
bark than bite,” Mikos said.
“The same factors that limited the federal
government’s influence over medical mari-
juana would probably have an even bigger
influence over its impact on recreational
marijuana,” Mikos said, citing not enough
agents to focus on small-time violators.
Federal drug agents have long concentrat-
ed on big-time drug traffickers and left
street-level dealers and users to local and
state law enforcement. As police depart-
ments began enforcing California’s medical
marijuana law, the DEA only sporadically
jumped in to bust medical users and sellers
that local law enforcement was no longer tar-
geting.
Allen Hopper, a drug law reform expert at
the American Civil Liberties Union in
Northern California, predicted that federal
agents would selectively crack down on mar-
ijuana growers and merchants instead of
going after every Californian who uses pot.
“They don’t have the resources to flood the
state with DEA agents to be drug cops,” he
said.
Nearly all arrests for marijuana crimes are
made at the state level. Of more than 847,000
marijuana-related arrests nationwide in 2008,
for example, just over 6,300 suspects were
booked by federal law enforcement, or fewer
than 1 percent.
Consequently, the fight over legalization
may end up the same way medical marijuana
did, experts said.
When Californians approved their first-in-
the-nation medical marijuana law in 1996,
Clinton administration officials vowed a harsh
crackdown. But nearly 15 years later,
California’s billion-dollar medical marijuana
industry is thriving.
During the Bush administration, retail pot
dispensaries across the state faced regular
raids from federal anti-drug agents. Their
owners were sometimes sentenced to decades
in prison for drug trafficking.

The Atherton crash was reported at about
6:15 a.m. on El Camino Real just north of
Watkins Avenue, Atherton police Lt. Joe
Wade said.
Officers responded and found Mendoza, a
transient staying at a homeless encampment
in the area, lying in the far left southbound
lane of the road. Emergency personnel tried to
revive him, but he was pronounced dead at the
scene, Wade said.
The driver of the Toyota Camry that struck
the victim stopped at the scene and is fully
cooperating with police, Wade said.
The preliminary investigation has revealed
that the victim and another man were leaving
the homeless encampment and were crossing
the road in an area that does not have a cross-
walk, according to Wade.
He said the first of the two men made it
across, but the second man was struck by the
vehicle, which was traveling in the middle
southbound lane of the three-lane road.
Lanes of El Camino Real were closed
between Atherton and Encinal avenues for
more than four hours due to the crash. The
road was fully reopened by about 10:45 a.m.,
police said.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
THELMA FRASCHIERI
Case Number 120518
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: Thelma Fraschieri aka
Themla June Fraschieri. A Petition for
Probate has been filed by: Deborah Ann
Duvauchelle in the Superior Court of Cal-
ifornia, County of San Mateo. The Peti-
tion of Probate requests that Deborah
Ann Duvauchelle be appointed as per-
sonal representative to administer the
estate of the decedent.
The petition requests the decedent’s will
and codicils, if any, be admitted to pro-
bate. The will and any codicils are availa-
ble for examination in the file kept by the
court.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ister the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection of the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: November 17, 2010
at 9:00 a.m., Dept: 28, Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo, 400
County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063. If you object to the granting of
the petition, you should appear at the
hearing and state your objections or file
written objections with the court before
the hearing. Your appearance may be in
person or by your attorney. If you are a
creditor or a contingent creditor of the
decedent, you must file your claim with
the court and mail a copy to the personal
representative appointed by the court
within four months from the date of first
issuance of letters as provided in Pro-
bate Code section 9100. The time for fil-
ing claims will not expire before four
months from the hearing date noticed
above. You may examine the file kept by

Engineer was behind Chile rescue

By Vivian Sequera
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN JOSE MINE, Chile — Three days
after 33 men were sealed deep within a
gold mine, Andre Sougarret was sum-
moned by Chile’s president.
The Chilean leader got right to the
point: The square-jawed, straight-talking
engineer would be in charge of digging
them out.
At first Sougarret worried — no one
knew if the miners were alive, and the
pressure was on to reach them. And he
knew he would be blamed if the men were
found dead “because we didn’t reach
them or the work was too slow.”
But eventually, contact was made, the
work was on, and the miners below were
calling him “boss.”
The mission was unprecedented. No
one had ever drilled so far to reach trapped
miners. No one knew where to find them.
From the first confusing days to this
week’s glorious finale, the 46-year-old
Sougarret was the man with the answers.
And at the end, the last miner to reach
the surface, shift foreman Luis Urzua,
REUTERS
Andre Sougarret, right, chief of the
operation to rescue the 33 trapped
miners in the San Jose mine in Copiapo.
would tell him: “People like you are worth
a lot of money in Chile.”
In an Associated Press interview,
Sougarret told how he assembled a team
of experts and methodically worked the
problem that would become the biggest
challenge of his life.
In choosing the young Chilean mining
expert, President Sebastian Pinera had
turned to the man who ran the world’s
most productive subterranean mine, El
Teniente, for Chile’s state-owned Codelco
copper company.
A methodical engineer who stays cool-
headed under pressure, Sougarret said he
tried not to dwell too much on the men he
was trying to save.
“I never allowed myself to think about
what was happening with them — that’s
anxiety-causing,” he said. “I told myself,
’My objective is to create an access, a con-
nection. Put that in your head.”’
“Why they were there and what hap-
pened, that’s not my responsibility. My
responsibility is to get there and get them
out.”
After meeting with Pinera, Sougarret
flew immediately to the mine in Chile’s
northern Atacama desert. There he
encountered a nest of confusion: Rescue
workers, firefighters, police officers, vol-
unteers and relatives desperate for word
about the fate of their men down below.
Gently but firmly, Sougarret made his
first move: ordering out the rescue work-
ers until there was, in fact, someone to res-
cue.
Around the world
Mexican marine, three gunmen killed in shootout
MONTERREY, Mexico — Mexican marines battled sus-
pected drug cartel gunmen whose allies erected at least a
dozen roadblocks in the northeastern city of Monterrey,
authorities said Friday. One marine and three gunmen were
killed.
The gunmen opened fire and threw grenades at a marine
patrol Thursday night on a highway on the western city lim-
its, according to a Navy statement.
At the same time, gang members used buses and other vehi-
cles to block at least a dozen main avenues in downtown
Monterrey, said Alejandro Garza y Garza, the attorney gener-
al of Nuevo Leon state, where Mexico’s third-largest city is
located.
Swiss celebrate digging world’s longest tunnel
SEDRUN, Switzerland — Workers hugged, cheered and set
off fireworks as the huge drill broke through the last stretch of
rock deep in the Swiss Alps. There was delight at the end of
the tunnel — the world’s longest — when it was completed
Friday.
The $10 billion, 35.4-mile (57-kilometer) tube will connect
Europe’s high-speed rail network and is part of a larger effort
to cut in half the number of trucks — now at 1.2 million —
that thunder through the Alps each year.
The joy and pride felt throughout Switzerland over digging
the Gotthard Base Tunnel reflected the one cause that unites
the country’s wealthy city dwellers with those living in tradi-
tional villages: Protecting the beauty of the mountains.
