City continues digesting housing proposals

San Mateo Planning Commission considers Fremont Street condos, to rule on Hillsdale Terrace
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The San Mateo Planning

Commission is continuing to
review of bevy of redevelopment
applications, many seeking to
create new multi-family housing
complexes in well-established
neighborhoods.
With housing advocates arguing

the construction of new units is a
way to help curb the regions high
cost of living, San Mateo, like
others across the Peninsula, has
seen a steady interest from the
development community.
On Thursday, the Planning
Commission will weigh in on two
proposals one controversial
and another that hasnt garnered

much attention.
After hearing from dozens of citizens on the Hillsdale Terrace redevelopment last month, the commission will return to decide
whether to recommend 74 units be
built on a site that includes two
vacant parcels and the former
Taxis Hamburgers restaurant
along El Camino Real.

While that proposal attracted
significant attention from the
Beresford neighborhood, a smaller application in another part of
town is also in the works and up
for a vote.
For the first time, the commission will review a proposal to tear
down a vacant single-family home
and construct seven three-story

townhomes in the North Central
neighborhood. The redevelopment of 737 Second Ave. into forsale condominiums, includes preserving the nearby Neighborhood
Market neighbors advocated to
keep, according to the city.

SAN FRANCISCO For the

second time in six years,
California voters will consider
legalizing recreational use of marijuana.
This time, supporters of the
move have much more financial
backing and professional campaign help than they did in 2010.

And polls show Proposition 64
with more than the 50 percent of
voter support needed to pass.
Silicon Valley billionaires and
wealthy backers from the already
legal medicinal marijuana industry
are among the top financial supporters, contributing a combined
$21 million.
Opponents have raised about
$2.5 million, with $1.4 million
coming from Pennsylvania antidrug crusader Julie Schauer.
California voters rejected a similar measure in 2010 after campaign leaders struggled to raise
The San Carlos City Council

will take a wait and see approach
to introducing any new laws regulating marijuana cultivation until
after the Nov. 8 election.
Cities and counties in the state
are bracing for the likely passage
of Proposition 64, the Adult Use of
Marijuana Act, that will allow
users to grow up to six plants,
either outdoors or indoors, without
any restriction.
The council considered an ordinance at its Monday night meeting
that would have banned outdoor
marijuana cultivation except in a
locked and secured accessory structure such as a greenhouse.
The ordinance would have prohibited processing and drying of
marijuana that is visible to the
public, commercial activity and
the manufacturing of edibles.
It would have also required security and compliance with building
and zoning regulations.
But City Attorney Greg Rubens
and Police Chief Greg Rothaus recommended that the council not
adopt the ordinance for the following reasons:
It will create a negative atmosphere in San Carlos, where community members feel compelled to
report on other community members use of their private residential properties;
It will be a burden on city staff
and the Sheriffs Office, as they
would be forced to investigate
reports and issue tickets on residential outdoor cultivation; and
It will be difficult to distinguish medical marijuana cultivation, which is legal, with recreational cultivation.
The council opted Monday night

South City considers apartment smoking ban

By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
South San Francisco apartment residents

and others living in attached units may
soon be prohibited from smoking indoors
under a proposal slated to go before city
officials.
Following a growing trend among other
San Mateo County cities, the South San
Francisco City Council is set to consider a
proposed expansion of the citys smoking
regulations during a meeting Wednesday,
Oct. 12.
Vice Mayor Pradeep Gupta said he favored
banning smoking in multi-unit residential
buildings, in observance of the potential
health risks posed by secondhand smoke
exposure to neighbors.
Im fully supportive because I was from
the very beginning concerned with secondhand smoke impacts both on quality of life
as well as recognized dangers of secondhand
smoke in terms of allergies and health concerns, he said.
Prohibitions already exist on the books
in South San Francisco disallowing smok-
ing in downtown and on

city properties as well as
public recreation areas,
but the proposed amendment would be the first
regulation of such behavior on private property.
Gupta said he is sensitive to those concerned
Pradeep Gupta about the threat of government overreach, but
believes it is the councils greater obligation to protect residents from potential
health hazards.
I respect their opinion and they have
rights. Its a free society, said Gupta, of
those who may feel their rights are being
violated. But given the situation they are
living in housing which is shared in some
way with neighbors, we have to take into
account how they impact those surrounding
them.
Under the proposed amendment, smoking
would still be allowed in a designated space
marked by signs more than 30 feet away
from a building.
Gupta said he considered the reserved
smoking zones a viable compromise.

We are providing some areas to smoke,
even though I would often tell them to quit
smoking, he said.
Should officials approve the proposal,
South San Francisco would join
Burlingame, San Mateo, Belmont, Foster
City and portions of unincorporated San
Mateo County as local communities where
smoking is disallowed in apartments and
multi-unit buildings.
The proposal in South San Francisco does
not apply to hotels or motels, in-law units
or separated rental residences such as
mobile home parks. It would also not
expand to electronic smoking devices,
which were recently banned downtown.
Violators would be subjected to escalating
fines for repeated offenses and the ordinance
would go into effect six months after adoption.
It is yet to be determined whether the ordinance would apply to smoking marijuana,
said Gupta, who favored gathering more
information on such a step prior to the

Trump unleashes aggressive attacks on GOP

By Steve Peoples,
Jonathan Lemire and Jill Colvin
WASHINGTON The shackles gone,

Donald Trump stepped up his fierce attacks
on his own party leaders Tuesday, promising to teach Republicans who oppose him a
lesson and fight for the presidency the way
I want to.
Im just tired of non-support from leaders of the party he represents on the presidential ticket, Trump said Tuesday evening
on Fox News Channels The OReilly
Factor. He saved special ire for House
Speaker Paul Ryan, who told Republicans
Monday hell no longer campaign for
Trump with four weeks to go before Election
Day.
I dont want his support, I dont care
about his support, Trump said.
With his campaign floundering and little
time to steady it, the businessman reverted
to the combative, divisive strategy that
propelled him to victory in the GOP primary: Attack every critic including fellow Republicans. Those close to Trump suggested it was open season on every detractor, regardless of party.
It is so nice that the shackles have been
taken off me and I can now fight for America
the way I want to, Trump said in a tweet
that brought new concern near panic in
some cases to a party trying to stave off
an all-out civil war before Nov. 8.
In another series of tweets, the
Republican nominee called House Speaker
Trump has acknowledged the possibility

of defeat in recent days, but on Tuesday he
tried to shift the blame for his struggles on
Republican defections and an election system that may be rigged against him. On
Monday, he warned of potential voter fraud
in heavily African-American Philadelphia,
a claim for which there is no evidence but
one that could challenge Americans faith in
a fair democratic process.
At the same time, Trumps campaign is
considering whether to feature Bill Clinton
accusers at his upcoming rallies. Trump
shocked the political world before Sundays
debate by appearing with several women
who had accused the former president of sexual impropriety decades earlier.
The aggressive shift is in line with the
philosophy of recently hired campaign
chaiman Steve Bannon, whose conservative website has long fueled attacks on
Republican leaders and perpetuated popular
conservative conspiracy theories.

Trumps grab em comment unleashes national conversation

By Beth J. Harpaz
NEW YORK On Facebook and Twitter,

on the phone and on the job, from living
rooms to hair salons, Donald Trumps Grab
em by the p**** comment has unleashed a
tsunami of stories from women sharing
painful memories of sexual assaults.
Many of these women were grabbed by the
genitals exactly as Trump described doing
by men who fled or melted into a crowd.
Some women were molested as children on a
playground or school bus. Others were
groped on a train or dance floor. Theyve
told of attacks getting out of taxicabs,
harassment in the workplace and rapes on
college campuses. Many shared their experiences for the first time in the days since the
video of Trumps comments aired, while oth-
ers have been exorcising their demons for a

long time on blogs or in therapy.
Whatever the forum, whatever their experience, one thing is for sure: A presidential
candidates boastful description of manhandling womens bodies has become a national conversation about sexual assault.
Thousands of women have stood up to say,
publicly and firsthand, This happened to
me!
Jennifer McGraw, 35, of Cleveland, wrote
a blog post Sunday about being molested as
a child called My Disposable Body that
began with these words: It all started with a
grab of the p****.
McGraw, who is also a rape survivor, said
social media conversations about sex
assaults have blown up because Trumps
comments about groping made speaking out
more urgent than ever.
Clinton brings in Gore as

closer on climate change
MIAMI Al Gore laid out the environmental stakes of the presidential race in
stark terms during a campaign stop for
Hillary Clinton Tuesday, arguing that electing her opponent would lead to climate
catastrophe.
Vice president during Clintons husbands
eight years in the White House and a longtime environmental activist, Gore served as
a closer for Clinton on climate change as
the Democratic candidate seeks to appeal to
activists and to young people, who consider this a key issue.
The choice in this election is extremely
clear. Hillary Clinton will make solving the
climate crisis a top national priority, Gore
said, before issuing a strong warning about
Republican Donald Trump. Her opponent,
based on the ideas that he has presented,
would take us toward a climate catastrophe.
Gores history with Florida, the ultimate
swing state, lent extra weight to his appeal
to get out and vote. Gore won the popular
vote in the 2000 presidential election, but
lost the presidency to George W. Bush after
a lengthy Florida recount and a shocking
Supreme Court decision.
Your vote really, really, really counts, he told

the
crowd,
which
responded by chanting,
You won!
Clinton, meanwhile,
vigorously emphasized
her plans to develop
more clean energy, reduce
Hillary Clinton fossil fuel production and
build more weatherresistant infrastructure.
She also continued her
attacks on Trump, who
has called climate change
a hoax and said he
would renegotiate the
Paris Climate Agreement,
an international treaty
designed to curb the rise
in global temperatures.
Al Gore
We cannot risk putting a climate denier in the White House,
Clinton said.
During the primary contest against progressive Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders,
Clinton offered clean energy plans and came
out against the Keystone XL Pipeline,
which is opposed by environmentalists.
This is somebody who could be our president, she told the Associated Press. I
cant not talk about it at this point. Theres
too much at stake. I feel strong enough at
this point in my life to share my story and
share my truth. Thats the only way people
will heal.
From presidential candidate Gary Harts
sexual relationship with Donna Rice in the
1980s and Bill Clintons affairs a decade
later to Anthony Weiners more recent sexting scandal, the sex lives of politicians
have been in headlines. But never before has
a U.S. candidate for president made comments boasting of sexually accosting
women, characterized by Trump as locker
room talk. When asked by CNNs Anderson
Cooper during Sundays debate if hed sexually assaulted women, Trump said he had
not.
The national conversation about sexual

assault is a powerful thing, said Delilah
Rumburg, CEO of the National Sexual
Violence Resource Center in Harrisburg,
Pennsylvania.
We saw this in the last year with campus
sexual assaults when many young women
started coming forward and speaking their
truths. This is a way for them to feel like
they have some power back when they can
tell those stories, to hold not only those
who commit these crimes accountable but
the systems as well. I know those survivors
voices can do much more than I ever could as
an advocate.
Edith Bluhm, 48, of Nashville,
Tennessee, says her friends Facebook
threads have been filled with harrowing stories of everything from date-rape to child
molestation.

Study: Human-caused
global warming burns
more Western forests
By Keith Ridler
BOISE, Idaho A new study of Western

forest fires confirms what is already
apparent wildfire seasons are getting
longer and more destructive.
But researchers with the University of
Idaho and Columbia University also say
humans are to blame.
The study made public Monday says
human-caused global warming contributed an additional 16, 000 square miles
of burned forests from 1984 to 2015.
Researchers say the 16, 000 square
miles represent half of the forest areas
that burned over the last three decades.

Man arrested for

relationship with teen co-worker
A South San Francisco man was arrested
Tuesday morning on 35 charges for allegedly having a sexual relationship with a 16-yearold co-worker.
Michael
Anthony
Lopez, 57, was booked
on a $500,000 warrant
for engaging in lewd or
lascivious acts with a
girl he knew through
Michael Lopez working at Safeway,
according
to
the
Sheriffs Office.
The two would meet in the Millbrae
Safeway parking lot to engage in sexual
activity in Lopezs vehicle, according to
the Sheriffs Office.
The allegations were first reported to
Burlingame police toward the end of
September when the victims mother
became suspicious. Upon learning that the
alleged crimes occurred in Millbrae, the
Sheriffs Office took over. Over the summer,
Lopez befriended the 16-year-old girl while
they both worked at the Burlingame
Safeway. He was eventually relocated to the
Millbrae store after suffering an injury,
according to the Sheriffs Office.
After gathering additional evidence and
caused climate change to leave its fingerprint on wildfire across the western U. S. ,
John Abatzoglou, the studys lead author
and an associate professor of geography
at the University of Idaho, said in a statement. Its already here.
The authors of the study, published
online in the Proceedings of the National
Academy of Sciences, say its the first to
try to quantify how much human-caused
climate change has increased wildfires in
Western forests. Some other factors that

Health conditions worsen as aid trickles into remote Haiti

By David McFadden and Ben Fox
DAME MARIE, Haiti In this most

western tip of Haiti, 300 patients with festering wounds lay silently on beds at the
main hospital in the seaside village of
Dame Marie waiting for medicine a week
after Hurricane Matthew hit the remote
peninsula.
Among the injured was Beauvoir Luckner,
a cobbler and farmer who walked 12 kilometers (7 miles) in three days after a tree fell
on his house, crushing his leg and killing
his mother. The leg might have to be amputated, but all doctors can do is clean his
wounds because the hospital has run out of
everything, including painkillers.
Theres no water, no antibiotics, Dr.
Herby Jean told the Associated Press.
Everything is depleted ... We hear helicopters flying overhead, but were not getting
anything.
There was also no power and frustration
grew on Tuesday as food, medicine and fresh
water kept arriving at the main city in
Haitis southwest peninsula but was slow to
reach increasingly desperate communities
like Dame Marie.
Luckner lay on a mattress with no sheets
and a bandage around his left leg.
It took a lot of misery to get here and
now that Im here, theres still misery, he
said.
Dominique Legros, a top cholera official at

the World Health Organization, said
Tuesday that the agency had decided to send
1 million doses of cholera vaccine to Haiti
as soon as possible and said safe drinking
water and treatment of those affected by the
disease are top priorities.
Earlier, the U.N. humanitarian agency in
Geneva made an emergency appeal for nearly $120 million in aid, saying about
750,000 people in southwest Haiti alone
will need life-saving assistance and protection in the next three months.
U.N. officials have said earlier that at
least 1.4 million people across the region
need assistance and that 2.1 million overall
have been affected by the hurricane. Some
175,000 people remain in shelters.
The National Civil Protection headquarters in Port-au-Prince raised the official
nationwide death toll to 372, which included at least 198 deaths in Grand-Anse. But
local officials have said the toll in GrandAnse alone tops 500.

Cash is piling up faster than Warren Buffett can invest it

By Josh Funk
OMAHA, Neb. Warren Buffett has the

kind of money problem most people would
envy: a growing mountain of cash.
Nearly $73 billion piled up at Berkshire
Hathaway by mid-summer, more than
Buffetts conglomerate has ever held before.

And the total continues growing every
day Buffett doesnt make a major investment because Berkshires 90-odd businesses generate roughly $1.5 billion in cash
every month.
Buffetts options include buying entire
businesses, picking up a few million shares
of stock or investing more in companies

Berkshire already owns, such as BNSF railroad and the utilities of Berkshire Hathaway
energy.
So far, Buffett appears to be mostly sitting on the cash since January, when
Berkshire completed its biggest acquisition
in its history, a $32.36 billion deal for aviation parts maker Precision Castparts.
I think hes looking for the right price
on something outstanding, said investor
Andy Kilpatrick, who wrote Of Permanent
Value: The Story of Warren Buffett.
Of course, not all of Berkshires cash is
available because Buffett wants to keep at
least $20 billion on hand at all times just in
case Berkshires insurance companies have
to pay a big claim or some other need arises.

But Buffett says hes always on the hunt
for sizeable acquisitions that would fit well
inside Berkshire, but he wont pay more
than he thinks a company is worth.
Buffett will only go after companies that
fit his criteria for large, proven businesses
he can understand and that have an enduring
competitive advantage.
Its hard to tell what he might be looking
for, said George Morgan, who teaches
finance at the University of Nebraska at
Omaha. All we can do is wait and see.
Buffett never discusses what he might buy
beforehand, and he doesnt talk much about
all the deals he says no to.

Yes on Measure U
he Redwood City Elementary

School District has had a
parcel tax for a mere four
years even though it is one of the
lowest funded school districts in this
area.
With a student population nearing
9,000 including three charter
schools, it has an overall budget of
about $98 million but its enrollment
is dropping causing funding to also
drop.
The current bond measure, Measure
W, is $67 a parcel and generates
about $1.6 million a year. District
officials are seeking a 14-year
extension with an additional per-parcel amount to bring it to $85 a year.
That will bring in an estimated $1.9
million a year that will be sent
directly to the districts 16 traditional and three charter schools in what
totals about $200 per student. That
is not really a windfall, but it will
allow school site flexibility in
deciding where the money is spent
whether it be in additional staff or
programs.
One vocal critic suggests that with
declining enrollment, the district
explore closing a school and leasing
it or at least sharing administration.
Thats not a bad idea if enrollment
continues to go down but we are not
Editorial
there yet. School districts should
always look at economies of scale if
necessary but there is also an importance in retaining neighborhood
schools. Enrollment, however,
should be kept a close eye on and
cost-saving measures should be
explored as required.
But that is neither here nor there
when it comes to supplementing the
districts current education of its students. While some school sites have
the ability to raise more money
through donations, others do not.
And this money allocated to individual school sites provides some equity in education for low-income
schools while also giving highincome schools some needed flexibility in programs.
The money spent through Measure
W has been a needed benet to the
district and its schools. This extension and slight increase will provide
a slight expansion of that benet at a
low overall cost to property owners.
Measure U is a modest request for
property owners that will provide
benefit to a traditionally underfunded
district and its schools. It deserves
your support.

Measure R hurts small business
Editor,
My husband and I are small property owners in Burlingame and we urge
you to vote no on Measure R. This
bad law would place undue burdens on
small business owners and will have
many negative consequences on our
community that must be considered.
Small property owners are small
business owners. We operate our
buildings as members of the community employing local carpenters,
painters and other professionals. We
deal with tenants directly as our
neighbors, with a vested interest in
making this a better place to live.
When rent control measures are
enacted, we are disproportionately
affected because of increased costs of
bureaucracy and an inability to keep
up with price ination necessary to
maintain a good place for people to
live. Measure R creates an unaccountable rent board that will impose fees
and create regulations requiring small
owners to hire professionals for compliance. In San Francisco, lawyers
must be hired to serve notices to their
tenants out of fear of dismissal due to
a paper technicality. Also, a small
business owner does not possess the
scale of economy of a large corpora-

tion, and pays disproportionally

higher prices for repairs. When rents
are controlled, the general rate of
ination for repairs outpaces rental
income.
The end result is that small business owners invest less in their buildings, limit repairs and ultimately
reduce interaction with tenants. Good
laws make communities worth investing in, worth improving and bring us
together. Measure R is simply not
good law.

night for fear that they will nd an

eviction notice or news of yet another rent increase. They are afraid to
report health and safety problems in
their units for fear of being regarded
as demanding and problematic and
being kicked out. They are afraid to
report suspicious activity in their
complex for fear of being seen as a
nuisance and being subject to eviction as a result. In the case of the
rally for the Renters Day of Action,
renters were afraid that if landlords
were aware they were advocating for
tenant protection, the axe of eviction
might fall. Some of them did come to
the rally wearing masks!
Rent stabilization and just cause for

removing the conditions that cause
this fear. As a volunteer with Faith in

of these policies in Peninsula cities

Arrested development
he most important quality of a commander

in chief is the sobriety to make life and
death decisions, rather than the ability to
bluster and zing. Joe Klein, Time magazine, Oct.
10, 2016.
Ive been reading up on the subject of bullying lately
because during this presidential campaign, it has been
blatantly demonstrated practically every day. Im sure
you know what I mean. It is so sad and such an embarrassment to our nation that we have such a person in
the political limelight. What a shame that the
Republicans couldnt do better in selecting a potential
leader to fill the most important office in the nation.
Something is terribly wrong when we display an inveterate bully who obviously has no sense of decorum, no
empathy or propriety and
is seriously lacking in
honesty and trustworthiness as a representative of
our nation.
According to Jeffrey
Kluger, author of The
Narcissist Next Door,
bullies are often serious
narcissists who thrive
when theres an opportunity for glory but are
uninterested in the collaborative work that leads to
greater good for a larger
group; they bristle and
bitch when their talents are challenged, but never consider the possibility that these talents may be less than
they believe them to be or that at least there is room
for improvement. For narcissists, setbacks are not
opportunities to learn. Theyre problems caused by
somebody else who got in their way or sabotaged their
plans. Narcissists tend to blame others rather than to
own it. Theres a fragility to the narcissistic personality, a pressure to be superior and the implicit need to
prove how great they are.
So back to the bullying a related problem. I consulted Google and found a thorough discussion from
Kansas State University Department of Education. We
learn that bullies tend to be physically strong, impulsive, hot-tempered, belligerent, fearless, coercive, confident and lacking in empathy for their victims. Bullies
have an aggressive personality and are motivated by
power and the desire to dominate others. They have an
unstable and unhealthy high self-esteem.
We learn that bullies have personalities in common,
including authoritarianism, a strong need to control and
a desire to dominate related to narcissism which is
characterized as a personality disorder. This person sees
themselves as a special, elite person deserving VIP
treatment, displays a lack of empathy for others and
has a tendency to be explosive. They often misinterpret
other peoples behavior toward them as being hostile
which leads to great difficulty to enter healthy relationships with others and leads to defects in social
functioning.
When a bully feels that they have been emotionally
or psychologically slighted or insulted in some way,
this ego threat provokes extremely negative feelings
that they are unable to tolerate. The result is that they
lash out defensively in anger or in order to preserve the
image they have of themselves as in control, powerful
and superior to others. Remember, I alone can fix it.
Extremely dangerous bullies have much in common
with psychopaths in that they feel little or no remorse
for their actions. While all of these personality problems may have a genetic component, they frequently
have roots in a disturbed childhood in which emotional
needs went unfulfilled. If you watched Frontline
when the lives of the presidential candidates were
reviewed, you can get a good idea of how this developed.
Some of my favorite opinion gurus chime in. In his
column of Oct. 2, Eugene Robinson, in referring to the
first debate: You saw a man who was trying to wing it,
with little grasp of the issues and less ability to control his impulses.
E. J. Dionne warns us in his Oct. 3 column: This candidate has now driven home, in a way no apologist,
enabler or timid analyst can plausibly deny, that he is
far too nasty, immature and undisciplined to be president. Add, That a political party, a political system
and a media blessed with broad constitutional freedoms
have allowed a man like this to get so close to the presidency should be a matter for serious introspection. And
that introspection should start now.
Joe Klein agrees with me in his evaluation of this
candidate at the first debate: He seemed like a child.

Stock indexes head sharply lower; oil falls

By Alex Veiga
DOW JONES INDUSTRIALS
A batch of disappointing company earnings news helped put

investors in a selling mood
Tuesday, pulling U. S. stocks
sharply lower.
Health care companies led the
broad market slide, which more
than wiped out gains from the day
before. Materials, utilities and
technology stocks were among
the big decliners. Energy stocks
also closed lower as crude oil
prices declined.
Several companies, including
Alcoa, reported quarterly results
that fell short of Wall Streets
expectations. While investors
will get to size up earnings from
many more companies in coming
weeks, the downbeat start to the
third-quarter earnings season
weighed on the market, said JJ
Kinahan, chief strategist at TD
Ameritrade.
Its just a bad tone to get us
started, Kinahan said. Weve
also been in a really low-volatility environment. This is the first

The Dow Jones industrial average fell 200.38 points, or 1.1 percent, to 18,128.66. Earlier, the
average was down as much as 267
points. The Standard & Poors 500

Indexes headed lower from the

start of trading Tuesday and never
got out of the red. Traders hammered shares in Alcoa and genetics
research company Illumina after
the companies reported results
that fell short of financial analysts forecasts.
Alcoa, which is due to split into
two companies on Nov. 1, slid
$3. 60, or 11. 4 percent, to
$27.91. Illumina sank $45.86, or
24.8 percent, to $138.99.

Fastenal also delivered quarterly
results that failed to impress
investors. The maker of industrial
and construction fasteners fell
$2.16, or 5.1 percent, to $39.96.
Traders also sold shares in St.
Jude Medical after the medical
device maker warned that the lithium battery in some of its implanted heart devices may run out of
energy prematurely. The stock
lost $2. 87, or 3. 5 percent, to

$78. 41. Shares in Abbott
Laboratories, which in April
agreed to buy St. Jude for $25 billion, also fell. Abbott slid $2.34,
or 5.4 percent, to $41.16.
Some companies benefited from
others bad news.
Apple was got a slight boost
after rival Samsung announced it
was discontinuing its Galaxy Note
7 phone permanently because of
overheating handsets. The Galaxy
Note 7 competed with Apples
iPhone. Apple gained 25 cents to
$116.30.
Crude oil prices fell a day after
spiking to their highest level in a
year, a move that disappointed
some investors.
Many people thought crude
would use its momentum to make a
run at its recent highs and it completely faded, Kinahan said.

For smartphone-dependent world, Samsung troubles hit hard

By Barbara Ortutay
NEW YORK Yes, you heard

that right. Samsung is asking owners of its fire-prone Galaxy Note 7
to do something crazy: power
down and stop using the device.
In an age when smartphones
have become extensions of ourselves, the last thing we look at
before falling asleep and the first
thing we grab in the morning, this
is all but unthinkable, even at the
dinner table, even on the toilet.
Risking a battery fire might
seem like a small price to pay for
obsessively checking your latest
Instagram likes, catching up on
email, Skyping your grandkids

across the country, getting directions, confirming your travel itinerary, reading the news, searching
for a dinner recipe, hailing a ride
and so on.
For those traveling with children, a long flight without a smartphone to serve as distraction is
akin to torture.
Power down and stop using the
device? You might as well go live
in a cave in a distant mountain (if
you can get there, since you no
longer have GPS). According to the
Pew Research Center, 43 percent of
the worlds population uses a
smartphone. Rates are highest in

And use it they do. We check
Facebook so often that the company no longer just measures its users
on a monthly basis. A more important number is how many people
check in on a daily basis. In June,
more than 1 billion people checked
Facebook on a mobile device at
least once a day.
In a report on global mobile
device usage, the consulting firm
Deloitte found the obvious, namely
that device obsession is deepening and that people are using their
phones for everything from
watching TV to simply crossing
the road. Some of us even use the
phones while crossing the road,

which is not the safest thing in the
world.
A small 2015 study by
Nottingham Trent University that
tracked 18- to 33-year-olds found
that they checked their phones an
average of 85 times a day often
without realizing.
Entire industries have sprung up
to try to pry us away from our gadgets, such as phone-free summer
camps for adults, anti-texting-anddriving apps and apps that track
how much time you spend on your
phone.
As such, its not surprising that
smartphone owners suddenly
deprived of this extra limb are find-
ing ways around the inconvenience.

Dons clear major hurdle

Aragons Olivia Tobin, left, gets off a shot and scores during the Dons 8-4
win over Half Moon Bay. With the victory, the undefeated Dons opened
up a two-game lead over the Cougars for the PAL Ocean Division title.
Heading into the final two week of

the regular season, the Aragon girls
water polo team is steaming toward
an undefeated, Peninsula Athletic
League Ocean Division title.
There was one major stumbling
block in the Dons way: a one-loss
Half Moon Bay team, which traveled to San Mateo in the hopes of
pulling even in the standings.
The match was nip-and-tuck the
first two quarters, but the Dons

turned up the pressure both offensively and defensively and steadily
pulled away for an 8-4 victory.
With any sport, as you go into
the postseason, matches become
more high stakes, said Aragons
Olivia Tobin, who scored a gamehigh four goals. They (the
Cougars) are definitely our biggest
competition.
Half Moon Bay (8-2 PAL Ocean)
has been a defense-first team all season long and that continued Tuesday
as the Cougars held Aragon (10-0) to

one of its lowest goal totals in PAL
play.
But the Dons are more than competent on defense and in the second
half, Aragon beat HMB at its own
game: the Dons held the Cougars to
just one second-half goal. In the
process, Aragon held HMB to just
four shots on the cage over the final
two periods and came up with six,
second-half steals.

DT Stacy McGee emerges as key contributor on Raiders defense

By Josh Dubow
ALAMEDA Former Oakland coach

Dennis Allen once described defensive tackle
Stacy McGee as a potential foundation piece
for the Raiders.
For his first three seasons, McGee gave
Oakland little production and the Raiders
enjoyed almost no success. McGee is now
emerging as a key contributor for Oakland
just as the team appears on the way to a turnaround.
McGee is coming off his most disruptive
game as a professional, getting 1 1/2 sacks

Chargers. The game helped Oakland get off to
its first 4-1 start in 14 years and move into a

McGee has played a key
role
in Oaklands success
Stacy McGee
after recording just a halfsack in 42 games. He played mostly as a
reserve his first three years after being picked
in the sixth round in 2013.
McGee entered this offseason as a bit of an
afterthought. But he earned a starting role
with a strong training camp and has gotten
more opportunities as a pass rusher with
Mario Edwards Jr. sideline by a hip injury.
Stacy has done some good thing for us,
coach Jack Del Rio said. Hes flashed some
rushes and been really close on a couple this

year, so it was nice to see him finish on the
two.
Del Rio has seen a change in McGees confidence this season and compared the hump
move he used on one of his sacks Sunday to
Hall of Famer Reggie White.
McGee said hes been working on that
move for a few years since former teammate
Antonio Smith taught it to him.
I guess it took a couple of years to really
figure it out and get it done, he said.
McGee has been one of the few early bright
spots on a defense that is allowing 7.0 yards
per play more than any team has given up
in a full season since the 1970 merger and
27.4 points per game.
He provided the inside pressure that had
been missing with Edwards hurt. With more
production from McGee up the middle, edge
rushers Khalil Mack and Bruce Irvin should
get more opportunities to get to the quarterback and allow the defense to thrive.
It really is everything, Del Rio said about
the inside rush. Were going to get a lot of
attention on the outside guys. We really look
forward to getting Mario back here, which we
will. But in the meantime, guys like Stacy
and (Jihad Ward) have to step up and be a presence in the middle for us to really have the
kind of rush were looking for.
McGee said despite the strong start personally and for the team, now is not the time to
get comfortable. The three years of losing to
start his career, when Oakland went just 1434, still weigh heavily on him especially
after spending his college career at a school
with as much success as Oklahoma.
Its hard to deal with, especially coming
from schools where Im winning and to come
here, McGee said. Im just glad we turned it
around and figured it out.

Estrada to start for Jays in ALCS opener against Cleveland

By Ian Harrison
TORONTO After wrapping up their

Division Series sweep of the Texas Rangers
on Sunday night, the Toronto Blue Jays
were able to kick back Monday, celebrate
Canadian Thanksgiving and watch the
Cleveland Indians beat Boston, finalizing
their AL Championship Series matchup.
Back at Rogers Centre for a light workout
on Tuesday afternoon, Toronto tabbed
right-hander Marco Estrada as its starter for
Fridays Game 1 in Cleveland.
Manager John Gibbons said Estrada was
the logical choice to start the opener after
winning elimination games for the Blue
Jays in both the ALDS and ALCS in 2015.
More recently, Estrada allowed one run
and four hits in 8 1-3 innings to beat Texas
in Game 1 of the ALDS last Thursday.
He pitched two of our biggest games in
the playoffs (last year) to keep us alive,
Gibbons said, and then he had the big one
the other night. Hes one guy, too, that
probably needs more than anybody to keep
on as close to normal (rest) as possible, not
too much time off.

Estrada, who did not speak to reporters
Tuesday, is 3-1 with a 2.68 ERA in eight
career postseason games, including four
starts. He made four postseason relief
appearances for Milwaukee in 2011.
Gibbons said right-hander Aaron
Sanchez, who led the AL with a 3.00 ERA
this season, will likely make just one start
in the ALCS as the Blue Jays continue to
limit his career-high workload.
Toronto, which lost to Kansas City in six
games in last years ALCS, is looking to
reach the World Series for the first time
since winning back-to-back championships in 1992 and 1993.
To get there, theyll have to beat an
Indians squad that Gibbons called tremendous, and probably the most balanced
team in the American League.
Its a very, very good offense, one of the
best out there, so thats not easy, Gibbons
said. Theyve got a good defensive club.
Theyre real athletic and young. Tough ball
club to shut down. Theyre hot like us, too.
The Blue Jays won three of seven meetings with the Indians in the regular season.
Four of those games, including all three in

an August series at Cleveland, were decided
by one run.
Were going to have a tough task at hand
but we feel like we have a team that can do
that, Blue Jays slugger and reigning AL
MVP Josh Donaldson said.
The Indians are seeking to give titlestarved Cleveland its second championship
in less than a year after the NBAs Cavaliers
ended a 52-year drought dating to a 1964
NFL championship for footballs Browns.
Clevelands payroll ranks among the
lower third of big league teams, some $26
million less than Torontos, but thats of
little concern to Indians right-hander Josh
Tomlin, who allowed two runs and four hits
in five innings to beat Boston in Game 3.
You can see it takes a special group of
people instead of a group of superstars,
Tomlin said.
Toronto will have four days off between
eliminating Texas and playing Game 1 in
Cleveland. It means valuable rest for everyone, Gibbons said, but especially for second baseman Devon Travis and left-hander
Francisco Liriano.

U.S. settles for draw
with New Zealand
WASHINGTON Julian Green scored his
second goal in two matches, before Monty
Pattersons equalizer forced the United States to
settle for a 1-1 draw in an exhibition against
New Zealand on Tuesday night.
Lynden Gooch made his U.S. debut as a second-half substitute in a match played exactly a
month before the Americans face Mexico to
open their final round of World Cup qualifying.
Goalkeeper William Yarbrough kept New
Zealand scoreless over 45 minutes in his first
international start and third overall appearance.
David Bingham couldnt do the same in the
second half, though he could hardly be blamed
for Pattersons strike.
After U.S. forward Jozy Altidore failed to clear
a corner kick aimed at New Zealands Michael
Boxhall, Patterson popped up to thump the
loose ball into the net from about 5 yards out.
The 21-year-old Green scored his third career
goal for the U.S. despite being only on the
fringes of the team over the past two years.
Green has made just five appearances since
his first goal for the U.S., which came very late
in overtime of a 2-1 second-round loss to
Belgium in the 2014 World Cup.
But he earned an invite from coach Jurgen
Klinsmann to camp after repeatedly making the

HMB did not help its cause either, by turning
the ball over seven times in the third and fourth
periods combined.
Defensively, we communicate a lot, Tobin
said. Weve been working on a variety of
drops, as well as pressuring the perimeter.
The Cougars did live up to its defensive reputation, which would have frustrated a lesser team
than Aragon. The Dons were getting plenty of
shots, but unlike previous games, they had a
hard time finding the back of net. Aragon was
just 1 for 7 on the power play and even had a 5meter penalty shot blocked (as did the
Cougars).
A lot of the Dons struggles defensively can
be attributed to HMB goaltender Sarah OKeefe,
who had a huge game between the posts, finishing with 18 saves, including several from
point-blank range.
Their goalie is very talented, Tobin said.
Aragon goalie Sara Frandsen wasnt tested
nearly as often, but still finished with 10 saves.
HMB let the Dons know early on that this
would be no lopsided Aragon win. The Cougars
scored on their first two shots of the game:
Camila Alvarez-Buylla scored off an assist from
Carly Hilvert for a 1-0 lead, while Elizabeth
Pyles goal at the 5:33 mark gave the Cougars a
2-1 lead.

Half Moon Bay goaltender Sarah OKeefe, left,

makes one of her 18 saves.
But Aragon answered each time, with Tobin
tying the score twice in the period, the second
coming off a long pass from Maria Sell.
The Cougars scored first in the second period
on a tally from Pyle to put her team up 3-2, but
it would be their last lead of the game.
Sell scored the first of her two goals to tie the
match at 3 off an assist from Vanessa Somoza,
while Another Sell-to-Tobin pass resulted in the
go-ahead goal with 26 second to play in the second period to give Aragon a 4-3 lead at halftime.
Aragon coach Roxanne Tursi attributed the
tight first half to the fact the two teams know
each so well.
A lot of these girls play together during the
summer, so they know each others tendencies, Tursi said.
In the second half, the Dons turned it up a
notch, but it didnt result in a flurry of goals.
Some of those shots we take in other games
may not land (against HMB), Tursi said. But

we dont get discouraged if we face adversity.
Thats what were preparing for going into
playoffs.
What it did do, however, was keep the pressure on the HMB defense as Aragon fired off 11
shots on goal in the third period alone, managing to beat OKeefe twice. Rachel Downall gave
the Dons some breathing room, scoring off
Sells third assist of the match to put Aragon up
5-3 with 2:09 left to play in the period.
Then, just before the quarter horn sounded,
the Dons scored the backbreaker. After OKeefe
stoned the Dons three times on one possession,
she smothered a Tobin breakaway. But Tobin
stayed with the play, picked up the rebound and
found a wide open Somoza in front of the HMB
net. After a number of dekes, she finally beat
OKeefe a moment before the horn sounded to
end the quarter.
Somozas strike gave the Dons a 6-3 lead
going into the final period.
The Dons pushed their lead to 7-3 on Tobins
fourth goal of the match, with Sell, again, setting up the strike with a perfect pass.
HMB got one of the goals back on a Hilvert
strike, but a Downall-to-Sell hookup resulted in
Sells second goal of the game and the final
tally of the match.
We have our big three (Downall, Sell and
Tobin) and we can rely on them to get goals,
Tursi said. Now, its about bringing in the
younger players (to contribute offensively
more consistently).

GIANTS
Rays manager Maddon watched from the other dugout.

Long after Cubs starter John Lackeys night was done,
Hector Rondon pitched the eighth for the win.
What curse?
Pinch-hitter Willson Contreras tied it with a two-run single with none out. Baez singled in the go-ahead run two batters later, and the Cubs capitalized on Gold Glove shortstop
Brandon Crawfords second costly error and more untimely
blunders by the Giants once-reliable relief staff.
One day after getting tagged in the eighth inning, Aroldis
Chapman closed this one out by striking out the side in
order. When he set down Brandon Belt to end it, Chapmans
teammates rushed to the mound to hug him and begin their
celebration.
After finishing off the resilient Giants, Maddon should
have his rotation all lined up because lefty Jon Lester wasnt needed to pitch a potential Game 5 in the Division
Series.
Maddon has his confident, power-hitting Cubs on quite an
October roll. They already beat All-Star Johnny Cueto and
ex-Cubs pitcher Jeff Samardzija, then waited until Moores
stellar outing was done to pounce.
Downright unflappable for years in these pressure-packed
scenarios, the Giants had won 10 straight games when facing postseason elimination. The World Series champions in
2010, 12 and 14, their every-other-year title chance is
over in 16 with the clubs first postseason series defeat in
the last 12.
We dont think were going to win the World Series every
even year. I mean, it took 50-something years to get one
here, quipped Giants manager Bruce Bochy, whose bullpen
management was scrutinized throughout a disappointing
second half.
The orange towel-waving sellout crowd of 43,166, perhaps spoiled this decade by the every-other-year title success, had been counting on a few more games by the bay
this October.
Moore, acquired from Tampa Bay at the Aug. 1 trade deadline for games of this magnitude, struck out 10 as his former

Lester doesnt buy all the superstition surrounding

Chicagos championship drought.
Nobody really cares in there about a curse or a goat or
anything else, he said. If we make a mistake, were not
going to blame it on a curse or anything else like that.
Were going to blame it on ourselves and be accountable for
it and move on to the next play or the next moment. ...
Weve got too many young guys in there that dont even
know what that stuff is, you know what I mean? So, its
almost better to play naive and just go out and worry about
us, worry about the Cubs and not anything else in the past
or, like I said, any animals.
Power pitchers
Two pitchers homered for the Cubs in the series: Arrieta
on Monday and reliever Travis Wood in Game 2. The 1924
New York Giants were the only other team to have two
pitchers go deep in a postseason series, according to ESPN
Stats & Info.
Thats pretty incredible, isnt it? Maddon said.
Giants injuries
Left fielder Angel Pagan missed his second straight start
with back spasms, and third baseman Eduardo Nunezs
strained right hamstring is still slow to heal, leaving the
Giants to contemplate replacing one on the roster. But no
move was made before the game.
Crawfords miscues
The shortstop was the first Giants player to commit two
errors in a postseason game since Don Mueller on Sept. 29,
1954, in Game 1 of the World Series.

game the following year, Kaepernick has struggled. He lost his
job to Gabbert midway through last season and then had three
operations that limited his work in the offseason.
Im ready to play, Kaepernick said Tuesday. Its been
about a year since live-game action. So Im itching to get back
out there.
Kaepernick said looking at the offense, theres just small
things here and there that we need to clean up, we need to correct, as a whole.
Hopefully those are things that we progress on this week
and show Sunday, he said.
Kaepernick confirmed there have been discussions with the
team about restructuring his six-year contract extension, but
he said he feels no pressure to get the deal done before
Sundays game.
The 49ers have lost consecutive home games to the
Cowboys and Cardinals while both teams started backup quarterbacks the last two weeks. Gabbert threw three interceptions
and two touchdown passes combined.
He shouldered the responsibility for the most recent loss to
Arizona on Thursday, when two of his interception on the
49ers side of the field led to 10 points for the Cardinals.
Gabbert expressed his displeasure with the demotion
Tuesday.

SPORTS

one of their key attackers back
last week in senior Cienna Noa.
The 5-11 outside hitter is one of
the best jumpers on the team.
Because of this, Hillsdale head
coach Dwight Crump moved Noa
to starting opposite Tuesday
specifically to contend with the
firepower of Merkes.
Noas presence helped open the
court for senior outside hitter
Camryn Yuens team-high 13
kills, while junior opposite
Monica Schmidt totaled nine. And
it was no coincidence that all three
kills Noa scored in the match came
in Hillsdales Game 2 win.
It was Hillsdale libero Ariana
Zamora who dug up some of
HMBs best attempts when the
Knights were firing on all cylinders. Zamora produced a team-high
14 digs and personified the scrappy play that has helped Hillsdale
stay in games this season.
We just try to get touches on
defense, Yuen said. We try to
hustle for everything.
Despite just the one league win,
the Knights have had successes,
including taking a set off firstplace Menlo-Atherton two weeks
ago, becoming one of just four
Peninsula Athletic League Bay
Division opponents to do so this
season.
We dont have a record that
shows how well we play but we
have a team that has fun, Crump
said. We play sound and were
scrappy as all heck. And thats
what I love about this team.
But HMB proved to have the finishing power Tuesday. Hillsdale

survived a Game 4 onslaught by
Merkes she piled on seven kills
in the set to extend the match to
five sets. Deadlocked at 21-21
though, Yuen dug a powerful
Merkes spike and the Knights
turned the tables by setting sophomore Leiana Cassidy for a leftside kill, giving Hillsdale a 22-21
lead amid a 5-1 run to close out the
set.
In Game 5, however, HMB
opened with four straight points,
including a pair of left-side kills
by Merkes. Donovan went on to
crush two straight-down kills off
middle before firing a service ace
to force match point at 14-5.
Merkes ultimately sealed the win
with a crush off the left side.
The ending was definitely the
best, Merkes said. They whole
set we stayed strong and did what
we needed to do.
Menlo-Atherton 3, Aragon 1
The Bears (9-0, 15-11) continued their march to a PAL Bay
Division three-peat with a 17-25,
25-17, 25-19, 25-22 win at

powered M-A with 15 kills, senior

aces and sophomore middle Alicia
Letvin had four blocks. With the
loss, the Dons fall into a thirdplace tie with Burlingame in the
Bay Division standings.

sole possession of second place in
the Bay Division with a 25-15,
25-16, 25-19 win over Terra Nova
(3-6, 7-9). Junior outside hitter
Maya McClellan scored her second

The Wildcats (8-1 PAL Ocean,

column Tuesday with a 25-22, 2519, 25-9 win at Mills (3-6, 4-7).
The Wildcats fired 14 service aces,
paced by four from senior Jordan
Crevelt. Woodside outside hitter
Pascale Tregon scored a matchhigh 11 kills and senior Jesse
Crowley totaled six blocks.

pace in their first-place tie with
Woodside, rolling in straight sets
25-16, 28-26, 25-15 over South
City (2-7, 2-8). The Warriors
showed some fight in Game 2
jumping out to a 23-17 lead but
the San Mateo service precision of
Meleina ORourke and Katrina
Chen fueled the Bearcats to finish
the set on an 11-3 run.

Easy braised cauliflower

By Katie Workman
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Tofu becomes firmer and less watery the longer you press it.This also ensures that when you
cook it, the tofu will have a springy texture and a crispy exterior.
Secret to great tofu

is all in the pressing
By Sara Moulton
My mom started traveling abroad when I

was in high school. And after each of her
trips, we cooked a meal from the country
shed just visited.
It was after her trip to Italy that I became a
huge fan of veal. Veal, of course, is notoriously bland, so whats the appeal? I love it
because it functions mostly as a firm landing strip for the delicious sauce of your
choice, and Im a nut for sauces. Recently, I
figured out that tofu plays the same role for
vegetarians as veal does for carnivores.
Made from soybeans, water and a coagulant, tofu is notably healthy low in calories, devoid of saturated fat and a great
source of protein, calcium and iron. But
theres the little matter of tofus flabby texture and its flavor (or lack thereof), which is
why Ive always shied away from the stuff.
It turns out, though, that properly prepared tofu is a great sponge for flavor, a natural fact exploited to good effect in this
light entree for the new year.
The first step is to lose the excess water in
tofu, which will Duh! water down your
dish. So you force out the excess water by
putting a weighted plate on top of the tofu
and let it press and drain for about 30 minutes. The tofu becomes firmer and less
watery the longer you press it. This also
ensures that when you cook it, the tofu will
have a springy texture and a crispy exterior.
The crispy slices of tofu are a wonderful
foil for this recipes intense chili-orange
sauce. The sauce is complemented with broccoli and red pepper. Serve it on brown rice
and youre looking at a one-dish meal, light
but filling. My husband, a die-hard carnivore, had no idea that this was a healthy
vegetarian dish. He just scarfed it down and
said thank you.
SAUTEED TOFU WITH BROCCOLI AND

RED PEPPERS IN CHILI-ORANGE SAUCE
Start to finish: One hour 15 minutes
Servings: 4
14-ounce package extra-firm water-packed
tofu
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons hoisin
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 tablespoons chili-garlic sauce
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
4 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1 red bell pepper, cored and cut into thin
strips
6 cups medium broccoli florets, blanched
until crisp-tender, then drained
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
2 teaspoons minced garlic
Brown rice, cooked, to serve
Toasted cashews, to garnish
Cut the block of tofu in half horizontally
to create two thick slabs. Wrap each slab in
a clean kitchen towel and place on a plate.
Place a second plate on top of the tofu, then
weigh it down with several heavy cans.
See TOFU, Page 18
Any time capers mingle with anchovies

and garlic, Im happy. You might think these
are very strong flavors, but when they are
used sparingly they add a lovely layer of
salty/savory flavor to whatever dish they
grace.
When I serve this to my family, do I mention that there are anchovies in it? Nope, I
dont. Do they think its delicious? Yup, they
do.
The cauliflower is browned in the pan
before its braised, and dont cook it too
long in the liquid or it will lose its great,
firm texture. If you want a vegetarian version, do skip the anchovies and use vegetable broth.
I was making this for the second time
when I realized I didnt have fresh parsley, so
I grabbed a bag of baby arugula from the
fridge and it was a happy amendment. In fact,
it made me realize that chopped arugula is a
great alternative to chopped parsley on any
number of dishes, offering a different slightly bitter and bracing green note. Ill be keeping arugula on hand for just this purpose.
BRAISED CAULIFLOWER
WITH ANCHOVIES AND CAPERS
Start to finish: 20 minutes
Servings: 6 to 8
1 large head cauliflower
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon finely minced garlic
2 tablespoons capers, drained
Coarse or kosher salt and freshly ground
pepper to taste
4 anchovies, rinsed and minced
Splash dry white wine
1 cup less-sodium vegetable or chicken
broth
1/2 cup flat-leaf parsley or 1 cup baby
arugula leaves, roughly chopped (optional)
When capers, anchovies and garlic are used

sparingly they add a lovely layer of
salty/savory flavor to whatever dish they
grace.
Cut the cauliflower into small florets.
Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven or
heavy stockpot over medium high heat. Add
the cauliflower and cook, stirring occasionally until it starts to lightly brown in some
spots. Shove the cauliflower to one side and
add the garlic, capers and anchovies so that
they hit the bottom of the pan, and season
with salt and pepper. Stir into the olive oil
until the garlic turns golden and you can
smell everything. Stir the mixture into the
cauliflower, and season with salt and pepper,
so the anchovy mixture coats the vegetables.
Pour in the wine and give everything a stir.
Add the broth and bring to a simmer. Cover
the pan, and reduce the heat so the liquid
remains at a simmer. Cook until the cauliflower is just tender but not mushy, from
eight to 10 minutes. If there is more than
1/2 cup liquid left, remove the cauliflower
with a slotted spoon and simmer the remaining liquid until there is less than 1/2 cup,
then pour it over the cauliflower. Stir in or
sprinkle over the parsley or arugula (if
using). Serve hot or warm.

TOFU
Blood-inspired cocktails this Halloween
By Michelle Locke
Press in this manner for 30 minutes to drain water from

the tofu and firm it up. Unwrap the tofu and cut each slab
into 1/2-inch pieces. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the orange juice, water,
hoisin, soy sauce, chili-garlic sauce, cornstarch and sesame
oil. Set aside.
In a large nonstick or stick-resistant skillet over mediumhigh, heat 1 1/2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil. Add half
of the tofu pieces, sprinkle with salt, then cook, stirring
occasionally, until golden brown on all sides, 8 to 10 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the tofu to a medium
bowl. Repeat with another 1 1/2 tablespoons of oil and the
remaining tofu.
Return the skillet to the heat and add the remaining 1
tablespoon of oil. Add the red pepper and cook, stirring,
until it is almost tender, about three minutes. Add the broccoli and cook for two minutes. Add the ginger and garlic and
cook, stirring, for one minute. Whisk the sauce in the bowl
to make certain the cornstarch is dissolved, then add to the
skillet, whisking. Bring to a boil to thicken, then add the
tofu and cook just until heated through.
Arrange a mound of rice on each of 4 serving plates, then
top with the tofu mixture and cashews.

Gore is more when it comes to

Halloween cocktails.
From classics like bloody mary to
new-fangled libations inspired by the
trend for all things vampiric, mixologists are seeing red for the annual celebration of things
fun and ghoulish.
Chef Richard
Garcia of 606
Congress at the
Renaissance
Boston Waterfront
likes to play on
the classics with
his Ghost of
Mary, a drink
where
the
blood of the
tomato juice swirls
around in the glass.
He uses vodka
mixed over ice with his
own special ghost mix
of tomato-vegetable juice
cocktail, lemons and seasonings,
then strained to create an effect of blood
swirling around in the glass. For a
shortcut, you can just buy some bloody
mary mix and strain it in a coffee filter
to remove some of the solids.
Ghost of Mary is bloody good fun,
says Garcia. Its a drink with enough
kick to haunt you, just the kind of
Bloody Mary you want to drink by the
full moonlight.
At BANK Cafe and Bar in Napa, bartenders will be making a blood and
sand, a classic cocktail that is believed
to have gotten its name from the 1922

bullfighter movie of that name starring
Rudolf Valentino. The red of cherry
brandy brings the blood to this drink,
which also includes scotch, sweet vermouth and orange juice.
BANK bar manager Lou DAngelo
looked forward to mixing up a few for
Halloween revelers, especially those
who emulate the vampires so popular in
movies and TV shows.
It makes a really nicelooking
Halloween
cocktail. Its not quite
red and its not quite
orange, its just got
that blend of in
between. Its a fun
cocktail, says
DAngelo.
And if All Souls
Day should find
you feeling like the
ghost of your former
self, theres always
the corpse reviver, a
drink featuring, among
other things, gin and
absinthe.
Its just one of those cocktails, says
Jeff Fairbanks, lead bartender at EPIC
Roasthouse in San Francisco.

Kim Kardashian West sues

online media outlet for libel
By Larry Neumeister
NEW YORK Kim Kardashian West

sued an online media outlet for libel
Tuesday, saying she was wrongly portrayed as a liar and thief after she was
attacked in Paris.
The lawsuit in Manhattan federal
court seeks unspecified damages from
MediaTakeOut.com. It said Kardashian
West, traumatized by the Oct. 3 armed
robbery, was victimized a second time
when the website reported hours afterward that she faked the robbery and lied
about the assault.
The
websites
owner,
Fred
Mwangaguhunga, didnt answer his
phone when comment was sought
Tuesday. A message left with the web-
Actor Daniel Craig would

miss James Bond role terribly
NEW YORK Daniel Craig apparently isnt ready to retire as James
Bond.
The actor told the
crowd Friday at the
New Yorker Festival
that playing 007 is
the best job in the
world. He said if he
were to stop playing
the role that he
Daniel Craig would miss it terribly.
Craig played coy about returning to
POT
to wait until after the election to enact
any restrictions on cultivation.
Councilman Matt Grocott, however,
said the city must consider adopting
secondhand smoke rules similar to
how tobacco is regulated.
I could care less if they want to
grow tomato plants or marijuana
plants. It makes no difference. The
issue is secondhand smoke, Grocott
said, according to a video of the meeting.
San Mateo County also just formed a
working group to prepare for the
site wasnt immediately returned.

Police said armed
robbers forced their
way into a private
residence where the
reality TV star was
staying, tied her up
and stole $10 milKim Kardashian lion worth of jewelry. She was in Paris
West
for fashion week.
No arrests have been made.
The lawsuit said the website lacked
any factual support when it published a
series of articles referring to her as a
liar and a thief and alleged that she
faked the robbery, lied about the violent assault and filed a fraudulent claim
with her insurance company to cheat
her carrier out of millions of dollars.

The lawsuit said the malicious publication of the articles, which paint
the victim of a serious crime as a criminal herself, is libelous.
The website also ignored her demand
that it publish a retraction and apology for calling her a liar and a criminal,
the lawsuit said.
According to the lawsuit, Kardashian
was assaulted and robbed by two
masked men who put a gun to her head,
duct-taped her hands, legs and mouth,
and left her lying helplessly on the
bathroom floor while they left with
the jewelry.
After the attack, her husband, Kanye
West, abruptly ended his New York
concert, announcing that he had a family emergency.
People in the news Candace

the long-running spy franchise while
promoting his last Bond installment,
Spectre.
The British actor told Time Out magazine last year that he would only make
another Bond movie for the money.
However, when he was later asked by
Britains Press Association about
reprising the role, Craig joked: Do I
have a choice?
Craig blamed his previous will-heor-wont-he comments at the New
Yorker Festival on being away from
his family and the physical strains of
the role.
propositions passage.
Assistant Deputy Manager Mike
Callagy convened the group comprised
of officials from the Department of
Agriculture, County Counsels Office,
District Attorneys Office, Budget and
Policy Unit and the Health System.
A study session will be held in
October to look at the issue from all
perspectives.
Proposition 64 controls, regulates
and taxes adult use of marijuana and is
backed strongly by Lt. Gov. Gavin
Newsom.
The countys work group will conduct a fact-finding mission initially
and be prepared to implement new
policies needed to address the voters
desire.
Cameron Bures daughter

eliminated from The Voice
LOS ANGELES The daughter of
Fuller House star and The View cohost Candace Cameron Bure has been
eliminated from NBCs The Voice.
Coach Adam Levine praised 18-yearold Natasha Bures performance but
ended up choosing crooner Riley
Elmore over her to move on to the next
round following Monday nights performance.
While disappointed, Bure thanked
Levine for initially picking her for his
team.
It will be up to the Board of
Supervisors whether to create ordinances or policies as a model for cities
to follow.
According to the nonpartisan state
Legislative Analysts Office, net additional state and local tax revenue could
eventually range from the high hundreds of millions of dollars to over $1
billion annually.
Proposition 64 imposes a 15 percent excise tax on all marijuana sales.
The state Department of Consumer
Affairs will serve as the lead regulatory
agency, the Department of Public
Health will oversee testing and manufacturing and the Department of Food
and Agriculture will oversee cultivation.

Monday night, the DeCristoferis both
pleaded to the council during public comment to save the tree.
Public Works Director Jay Walter then
publicly apologized for the way the
process played out and the angst it
caused the couple, according to a video of
the meeting.
Walter met with the family Tuesday morning with a city arborist, the familys own
arborist and other city officials to discuss
saving the tree while maintaining a passable sidewalk.
It was a good meeting, Walter said.
The city and family have agreed to conduct an assessment of the overall health of
the tree and to create a bulbout so the tree

The primarily three-bedroom units would
have an attached single-car garage with nine
additional parking spots on site. As a small
infill project, this will be the first time the
commission has reviewed the project and
could approve it at Thursdays meeting,
according to the city.
Representatives with the architect noted
the project is not very dense and theyve
listened to residents while considering how
to make the project fit in well with the
existing neighborhood.
The location is excellent, said Linda
Crowley, office manager with Panko
Architects, who added the proposed design
is very nice and it fits in architecturally

money and support for the lengthy ballot
measure that was hastily written by the
owner of a small medicinal marijuana store.
Four states and Washington, D.C., have
legalized recreational marijuana in recent
years, and 25 states currently allow medicinal pot, including California.
The drug remains illegal under federal law.
People on both sides say passage of
Proposition 64 would likely ignite similar
movements in other states and exert significant pressure on federal authorities to
reconsider the federal prohibition.
As California goes, so goes the nation,
said University of California, Berkeley
political science professor Alan Ross.
Proposition 64 would allow people 21 and
older to legally possess up to an ounce of
weed and grow six marijuana plants at home.
Varying tax rates would be levied on sales,
with the money deposited into the states
Marijuana Tax Fund.
The measure also would allow cities and
counties to pass their own regulations and
taxes.
Most of the money would be spent on substance abuse education and treatment. Some
would go to repair damage done to the environment by illegal marijuana growers.
Funds would also be allocated to train police
to detect when people are driving under the
influence of pot.
Californias nonpartisan Legislative
Analysts Office estimated that state could
collect up to $1 billion in taxes a year.
Its a huge deal and its long overdue,

has room to grow, Walter said.

The sidewalk will be pushed out to the
street and the DeCristoferis will peel back
part of the lawn as arborists take a close
look at the roots, he said.
The family also recognizes the potential
liability the tree poses if it were to tip over,
he said.
Ruby is one of the more mature specimens
in the city, Walter said.
Leslie DeCristoferi told the Daily Journal
Tuesday that the meeting with Walter was
excellent.
The tree is in good shape, she said.
A city arborist had concluded prior to
Tuesdays meeting that the tree was in ill
health because of some root fungus and
decay.
We want a healthy tree and we dont want
it to hurt anyone but we dont want to cut
down the tree, she said.
The family started an online petition and
garnered 270 signatures in support of sav-
ing the tree after getting the letter last

month. They were initially looking at a
$7,000 bill for sidewalk and curb repair
after being told to chop down the tree.
The DeCristoferis, who have lived in their
home for 30 years, will pay for the bulbout
work.
Ruby has raised the sidewalk and the familys response was to put a ramp in the area
to ease passage.
No one has tripped on the sidewalk,
Leslie DeCristoferis said.
Councilmen Ron Collins and Matt
Grocott visited the family and tree with
Walter Tuesday. Councilman Mark Olbert
has also visited the site.
Im confident Ruby is not taken down,
Olbert said.
Its Olbert who has been pressuring his
colleagues on the council in recent months
to split the cost with homeowners for sidewalk repairs.
Repairs are the responsibility of property
owners but some cities do share the cost.

Olbert has started an online petition to let
residents weigh in on the issue and to show
his fellow councilmembers how the community feels about it.
A handful of residents spoke out about the
issue at a recent council meeting with one
White Oaks resident claiming that a cyberbully has anonymously complained online
about all the sidewalk repairs needed in the
neighborhood.
This anonymous complainer has apparently prompted the Public Works
Department to investigate and ding every
homeowner fingered by this cyber troll.
Often for minor cracks that would never
pose any tripping hazards, Ken Castle told
the council.
Between May to July, there were 230
requests to inspect sidewalks, Walter said.
The city responded to every one of them
and they were all determined to need repairs,
he said.
Panko is designing the project on behalf

of the property owner, who did not immediately return a request for comment.
The proposed craftsman style buildings
would be situated near single-family homes
to the northwest and large multi-family
structures to the southeast.
This project at the corner of Second
Avenue and Fremont Street has received
positive feedback from a few community
members via email to the city and isnt
expected to be controversial. But its a
stones throw away from another proposal
the commission recommended be denied in
late August.
Neighbors in the area sandwiched between
downtown San Mateo and Highway 101 rallied against a proposal to create a fourstory, 15-unit condominium complex at
210 Fremont St. The commission recommended a denial of the project which is
located directly across the street from the
small redevelopment being heard this week

as residents argued it was too dense while
traffic and parking are already problematic.
Staff had recommended the project be
approved and the owner appealed to the City
Council, which may hear the proposal Nov.
21.
In many ways, the commissions decision
was heavily influenced by neighbors concerns, many of whom live in the nearby
Gateway Commons and Metropolitan
Apartment complexes. Residents across
town near the Beresford neighborhood, are
also seeking to flex their input as they argue
the Hillsdale Terrace project should be
scaled back or turned down.
The mixed-use project just north of the
Hillsdale Shopping Center would include 74
condominiums and about 13,400 square feet
of ground floor retail space. Eight of the
units would be offered as below market in
exchange for the developer seeking a 51
percent density bonus on the 1-acre site

spanning three parcels from the 2700 to the
2800 block of El Camino Real.
That project includes a mix of two-, threeand four-bedroom units near the soon-to-be
relocated Hillsdale Caltrain station. Dozens
of residents commented on the proposal,
with many expressing concerns about the
proposed height and density of the project
as well as impacts to traffic and parking.
The public comment period was closed
after the last commission meeting and on
Thursday planners will make a recommendation to the City Council, which has the
final authority on whether to approve the
proposal.

As housing pressures go up, more and

supporter who owns one of the nations

largest medicinal marijuana dispensaries.
Opponents argue the measure will open
marijuana markets now dominated by small
farmers to corporate interests and lead to
children using the drug through pot-laced
sweets, cookies and brownies.
Proposition 64 favors the interests of
wealthy corporations over the good of the
everyday consumer, adopting policies that
work against public health, said Kevin
Sabet, co-founder of the California-based
nonprofit group Smart Approaches to
Marijuana.
His group contributed $890,000 to the
campaign to defeat Proposition 64.
Backers counter that Proposition 64
includes measures to protect small farmers
and will further regulate a growing industry
that is still largely illegal.
However, some medical marijuana advocates fear the supply of pot for patients
could be threatened if Proposition 64 passes
because of new regulations it would impose
on growers.
Several law enforcement agencies have
donated a combined $250,000 to defeat the
measure, and U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein
announced her opposition in July.
The 62-page ballot measure was crafted by
political professionals and has the backing
of many elected officials, including Lt. Gov.
Gavin Newsom, a Democrat who is running
for governor in 2018. Gov. Jerry Brown
said hes close to announcing his position.

investor Sean Parker has contributed nearly

George Soros and another supported by

Afghanistans Shiites mark Ashura amid threats, violence

By Rahim Faiez
KABUL, Afghanistan Militants attacked

a Shiite shrine in Kabul on Tuesday, killing at
least 14 people and deepening fears of a
spasm of violence against Afghanistans
Shiites as they mark one of their most important religious days later this week.
A gunman stormed Sakhi Shrine, the
largest Shiite shrine in the capital, killing 13
civilians and one policeman and wounding
26 people, according to Interior Ministry
spokesman Sediq Sediqqi. He said the attacker was shot dead by police.
The Shiites were gathering on the eve of
Ashoura, when the followers mark the martyrdom of the Prophet Muhammads grandson
with candlelight vigils and mass public flagellations. Earlier in the week, authorities
had warned of the potential for attacks
against Shiites, asking them to stay close to
home and avoid large gatherings.
The countrys religious authorities have
declared Oct. 12 Ashoura Day, the 10th day of
the month of Muhharam on the Islamic calendar, to commemorate the death of Imam
Hussein in Karbala, Iraq in 680 AD.
The date, a national public holiday, is
decided according to the new moon and is the
climax of a month of mourning by devout
Shiite Muslims.
knives to empathize with Husseins suffering.

Black tents erected by roadsides dispense
free food and tea to pilgrims on foot. Homes
and shops are decorated with black and green
banners, and many Shiites fix black flags to
their cars.
Commemorations were largely banned during the five years when the Taliban controlled the country. But Afghanistans Shiites
have taken their commemorations more public since the extremists were overthrown in
the U.S. invasion of 2001.
In 2011, at least 54 people were killed
when a suicide bomber detonated his device at
a Kabul shrine where hundreds of people had
gathered. A Shiite mosque in the northern city
of Mazar-i-Sharif was hit at the same time,
leaving four dead.
In July this year, a suicide bomber targeted

Airstrikes in Syrias Aleppo and shelling in south kill 20

BEIRUT Airstrikes on rebel-held parts of

the northern city of Aleppo killed at least 14
people Tuesday, while the shelling of a government-held neighborhood in southern
Syria hit a school, killing at least six, including children, opposition activists and state
media said.
Syrias official news agency SANA also
reported rare shelling of neighborhoods in
the capital, Damascus, including several mortar shells fired by opposition groups based
on the edge of the city that landed in the residential Qasaa district and close to the
Umayyad Mosque, wounding an unspecified
number of people.
Fighting on a number of fronts across the
country has intensified in recent weeks following the collapse of a U.S. and Russianbrokered cease-fire.

seen particularly fierce fighting, as pro-government forces try to capture neighborhoods
in besieged opposition-held parts of the city.
The activist-operated Aleppo Today TV station and Qasioun news agency say bunkerbusting bombs were used in an attack on the
Bustan al-Qasr neighborhood in rebel-held
eastern Aleppo.
Other activist groups and a member of the
Aleppo local council, Zakaria Amino, said
rescue workers were searching for people

under the rubble. Amino said bombs fell on a
number of other rebel-held neighborhoods.
The opposition-held part of Aleppo has
been battered by an intensive aerial campaign since last month, when the truce collapsed after just a week. Syrian pro-government forces are also conducting a ground
offensive into the rebel-held districts,
advancing slowly in the north, east and south
of the city.
