SACRAMENTO — One of California’s biggest political-re California’s political-reform form efforts in decades took a major step Thursday after initial members of a redistricting commission were selected in a random drawing. State Auditor Elaine Howle used a spinning wire basket and ping pongstyle lottery balls to choose the ﬁrst eight members of the California Citizens Redistricting Commission. Those members in turn will select the ﬁnal six members of the commission by Dec. 31. The 14 member-commission is charged with

drawing new state legislative and congressional districts by Aug. 15, in time for the 2012 elections. Voters removed the responsibility for drawing legislative boundaries from the state Legislature by passing a 2008 ballot initiative. They expanded the commission’s scope in this month’s election election by adding congressional districts. Supporters of the independent commission hope it will lead to more competitive districts that will give all candidates a fair shot shot at winning, thus reducing reducing the partisanship in Sacramento and in the congressional delegation California sends to Washington.

Airports consider call to ditch TSA By Ray Henry and Mike Schneider THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ATLANTA — In a climate of Internet campaigns to shun airport pat-downs and veteran pilots suing over their treatment by government screeners, screene rs, some airports airports are conconsidering another way to show dissatisfaction satisf action:: Ditchin Ditching g TSA agents agents altogether. Federal law allows airports to opt for screeners from the private sector instead. The push is being led by a powerful Florida congressman

who’s a longtime critic of the Transportation Security Administration and counts among his campaign contributors some of the companies who might take the TSA’s place. Furor over airline passenger checks has grown as more airports have installed scanners that produce digital images of the body’s contours,, and the anger intensifie contours intensified d further when TSA added a more intrusive style of pat-down recently for those who opt out of the fullbody scans. Some travelers are using the Internet to organize

protests aimed at the busy travel days next week surrounding Thanksgiving. For Republican Rep. John Mica of Florida, Florida, the way to make traveltravelers feel more comfortable would be to kick TSA employees out of their posts at the ends of the snaking securit sec urity y lines. lines.

Since 2001, 2001, the college college distric districtt has had a clear vision for updating facilities which took a ﬁnancial hit. Chancellor Ron Galatolo suggested studying a bond measure to ﬁnish projects like science and other academic buildings while creating a trust to fund equipment updates for 10 or more years. Galatolo requested the conversation, explaining the district district made a master plan which counted on over $50 million in state bonds that never became availabl available. e. In addition, the district district lost about about $25 million of bond funds in 2008 due to the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers. The district had the money invested in a San Mateo County investment investm ent fund, which lost approxapproximately $150 million when the company went under. Together the district is short funds it planned to use, he explained.

This lack of funds means possibly not building a new science building at Cañada to work with the nursing program, or new academic academic buildings at the College of San Mateo and Skyline. Bond funds have also allowed the district to purchase new equipment, equip ment, which will somed someday ay need to be replaced. A new bond could mean starting a sinking fund for such needs. Galatolo estimated the district spends millions annually on equipment upgrades. A large chunk of money could take care of needs for 10 or more more years, freeing up more money for the general general fund, he said. Trustee Richard Holober expressed concern asking for money to be invested without the ability to ensure voters there have been changes in investment policy. On the other hand, hand, the idea idea of creating creating a fund to free up money that could help restore massive cuts made in recent years appealed to Holober. “This allows us to put our state money into the classroom, classroom,”” he said.

Caminar has has been saving lives in San Mateo County for over 40 years.

Caminar Saving Lives! A Client’s Success Success Story . . .

There was a time in Sheri’s past when she believed she had nowhere to turn. At 22 years old, she met unexpected challenges; feeling alone with no support, unloved and dealing with depression, Sheri jumped from a ﬁve story building. Sheri survived the fall and now deals with constant daily pain from the severe physical trauma, but she has bounced back to become the bubbly, energetic self she once knew. Sheri now represents the hope and strength she once sought out through her work as a job coach with Caminar.

Caminar’s Jobs Plus program provides job placement and supported employment services for people with all types of disabilities. Jobs Plus works with each individual to ﬁnd a job match and then tailors job coaching support to ensure success. Employers Employers receive a tax incentive as well as a dedicated employee who typically stays longer than other employees.

Sheri got back on track through Caminar, a non-proﬁt agency whose programs provide residential treatment, case management, supported employment and education, a medication clinic and permanent housing opportunities to those with severe mental illnesses in San

The job coach position was the ﬁrst job Sheri held and she ﬂourished. The day-to-day responsibilities gave her a new purpose. Her interactions with her clients help give her a new perspective and much-needed conﬁdence.

Mateo County. Caminar’s services help lead disabled individuals to independent – rather than dependent - living.

“I found working at Caminar has helped my mental well being” Sheri said. “I have work that allows me to be honest about my life and my past experiences. I am better, and my pain has become more manageable.”

“Caminar gives opportunities to people with disabilities to work, make a living and recover from depression,” Sheri said. “That’s a huge accomplishment for vulnerable people. In the past, those with mental and physical disabilities were warehoused. Now they are working and taking care of themselves with the help of Caminar. The agency offers incredible opportunities to reach recovery and self-sufﬁciency.” Sheri began her road to physical and emotional recovery by attending college classes at College of San Mateo through Caminar’s Transition to College program. “I never thought college was an option. I am a ﬁrst generation college student so I was frightened at ﬁrst,” Sheri said. “I started to get more comfortable with education and learned about becoming a peer counselor. With my personal experiences, I felt I could ﬁll a niche by giving back to those with disabilities.” Caminar Jobs Plus Director, Michael Schocket, met Sheri at CSM and after a brief discussion he knew she has what it takes to be a job coach and he offered her a job. Sheri has been sharing her story and helping others with similar challenges for more than three years. As a job coach, Sheri has tackled many of the physical and emotional challenges her clients face day to day and now guides them as they work to become independent.

Sheri’s life story serves others moving forward

Sheri represents a positive avenue to turn toward for clients who are going through similar struggles.

“I’m a totally different person now,” Sheri says. “At that time, I didn’t know what direction to turn and this was a cry for help. Having gone through that made me value life and realize that life is worth living. This was something that happened long ago and I have gotten over it. I now see how the experience helps me relate to others.”

Sheri provides job coaching to four clients and also gives workshops at Caminar’s Redwood House, a mental health crisis residential program. “I tell them my story and how I was so depressed. I never thought I’d be where I am today. The injury made me hopeless. The pain was so intense. The pain and depression took me over until I found Caminar. Then I started getting out of the house and started working with people who understood.” To Sheri’s clients, she not only provides practical support in their professional life, but emotional support because of her story. Sheri knows ﬁrsthand the misleading stigma people with disabilities face. “Without the dedicated Caminar staff a lot of people with mental illness would still be sitting on the couch just dreaming about working and leading self-sufﬁcient lives.” “They know I’ve lived it,” Sheri said. “The services are tailored to give clients the support they really need, because they know we understand.” Instead of being “stigmatized” or different, the acceptance and mutual understanding is communicated and built. They know I am there for them- just like Caminar has been there for me. You too can make a difference in the lives of those with disabilities.

Unfortunately,, with a de Unfortunately deﬁcit of this size, about a third of the state’s state’s overall budget, budget, it won’t be possible possible to erase it by the obvious method of raising taxes and making cuts. The public wouldn’t sit still for either all at once. It almost certainly will be necessary necessary next year, year, and the year after, after, for the state to essenessentially borrow its way out of part of the problem. Even the nonpartisan Legislative Analyst’s Of ﬁce, the state’s state’s top budget expert, expert, understands that the governor and Legislature will need to take a multiyear approach. But it is just as clear that the leadership — starting with Brown

— will fail if it simply takes the state through the same annual budget process that got us where we are. Even if it seems politically unpopular, Brown and the others need to create a professional budgeting process that looks at current circumstances and projections and systematically systematicall y shrinks the deﬁcit. The portion of the annual shortfall that is put off for future decisionmakers to ﬁx must become smaller each year rather than larger. Much has been said about how Brown will ﬁnd himself in an awkward position of needing to help solve the state’s other big ﬁnancial crisis, the runaway expense of state pensions, while he remains remains indebted to to the public employee unions that did so much to get him elected. The fact of the matter is that the size of

the deﬁcit leaves him no choice. He must continue the pension reform process started by Schwarzenegger and he must expand it and embrace it as his own. The tasks of managing the budget and getting pension costs under control are linked to the point that Brown will be considered a success at term’ term’ss end only if both problems are essentially solved. Eventually,, we’d love Eventually love to see Brown take on environmental and educational issues. Between gubernatorial terms, terms, he has had plenty plenty of time to come up with some new ideas in both areas. But it takes money and public support for government to accomplish much of anything. Unless he helps ﬁx the budget and pension messes, messes, he’ll have neither.

Editor, Fair or not, we live in a time time where the terms “crook” “crook” and “politician” “politici an” have become interinterchangeable, change able, but now that one of the most contentious election seasons we’ve ever seen is in the books, Congresswoman Jackie Speier will soon have the chance to do something about that. One of the ﬁrst choices she will have to make, is about what to do with the Of ﬁce of Congressional Ethics (OCE), (OCE), the independent independent body charged with keeping Congress honest by reviewing allegations of misconduct against members of the House of Representatives and their staff. Even though the of ﬁce has fought the past few years with one hand tied being being its back, it is still doing a good job holding members accountable and keeping the public informed. But there’s more work to do. Recently the nonpartisan watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics Washington (CREW) pointed outinthat 19 of the most corrupt members of Congress will be coming back to Washington in January for another term. Yet, instead of empowering the OCE to police these crooked members, leader leaderss from both parties are openly talking about dismantling or dissolving the OCE. Rep. Speier cannot let that happen. The voters of San Mateo County sent our representative to Washington to stand up for what’s right, and standing up for what’s right, means standing standing up for the OCE. The mission of the of ﬁce strives to “give the public a ‘window’ into ethics enforcement in the United States House of Representatives.” Trust in Congress is currently at an all-time low and putting shutters on this window would further erode this trust and enable even more misconduct. Jerry Vercauteren San Carlos

Change to come Editor, Exit polls from the 2010 elections revealed that 41 percent of voters wanted wanted change, and change

is what they will get once Republicans take control in the U.S. House of Representati Representatives, ves, where all budgetary bills originate. Bear in mind that some of those Republicans helped bring about our current recession by supporting huge tax cuts for the rich during the administration of President George W. Bush. The cuts were aimed toward creating new jobs here, but those jobs were shipped shipped to other nations for cheaper labor and higher proﬁts. Will that happen again now? Attacks upon funding of Social Security and Medicare will be intensiﬁed as Republicans continue their decade-long push to privatize both services. If they are successful, millions of senior senior citizens will be forced onto the streets to join the homeless. Job-seekers will not receive further extensions of their unemployment beneﬁts, and those helped by the current administration will be left out in the cold as well. This “gloom and doom” scenario is no fairy tale, simply a review revi of Republican policy during theew current recession and similar reactions in the past. Yes, Yes, there will be changes — changes favoring the “party of the rich,” which controls 95 percent of the nation’s wealth. Jack Rogers San Mateo

Leland Yee’s accomplishments Editor, Since 2006, state Sen. Leland Yee has had 100 bills chaptered into law. He has fought to restore funding to domestic violence shelters and stood up against devastating cuts to education. He has increased public accountability in the UC and CSU systems and protecting our Bay from oil spills. He has consistently represented our values, valu es, take taken n on dif ﬁcult issues, and has never been afraid to speak his mind in Sacramento. When you weigh his many accomplishments next to those of former county supervisor Mike Nevin, Nevin, it is clear we made the right decision in 2006 when we resoundingly voted Yee Yee as our senator. While While it will be a dis-

appointment to to lose him, he has earned my trust and my respect as a legislator, legislator, and I won’t let a garden-variety political hack like Nevin attempt to sully his legacy. Ben Maddox San Carlos

A poor example Editor, I ﬁnd it despicable and disturbing that just over a week after asking his constituents to elect him to a term as state senator, Leland Yee Yee has announced his intention to run for mayor of San Francisco. Yee had a commitment to represent us that he rejected, rejected, instead choosing choosing to pursue his own personal agenda. I urge other elected of ﬁcials to complete their terms and not follow his poor example. Seth Yatovitz Millbrae

Who will be our champion? Editor, I’ve never fully identiﬁed with being white. If you had seen my father, especially in the summer, summer, you’d think, “Wo “Wow, w, that guy looks like an olive. olive.”” Plus, our parents parents taught us to take ‘em one at a time. They weren’t that far ahead of their time, they were just just trying to be real. At times, it has been extremely embarrassing to be white. One of the worst times was a few months ago, when I heard on the radio about a group that held a rally in support of Johannes Mehserle. I could not believe my ears. Do you think this guy was just doing his job? I do not want this type of cop. I wanted to believe that it was an accident. Then at the tail end of the trial it came out that in the hours and days that followed this tragedy, Mehserle never mentioned to anyone that he had meant to pull out his Taser. Don’t you think that would have been the ﬁrst thing out of his mouth? He shot Oscar Grant, put his knee in his back, and cuffed him. He cuffed a dead man. And I dare you, you, Judge Perry Perry,, to look me me in the eye and tell me that if the roles had been reversed reversed,, the out-

Open Pico Boulevard Editors, In Response to Mark Simon’ Simon’ss letter, “With SamTrans, safety is ﬁrst priority,” priority,” in the Nov. 12 edition of the Daily Journal, I noticed that while Pico Boulevard has been closed for one year and undergoing safety review, review, SamTrans has: repaved the road, widened the entrance onto Shoreway by paving some of the gravel, gravel, erected a “dead end” sign and added to the existing existing stop signs at the gate of the SamTrans lot. While it may be technically true that “The preliminary review indicates that Pico Boulevard does not meet the minimum state standards for a roadway serving through trafﬁc. It lacks appropriate signage, including speed speed limit signs, signs, lacks adequate road road width, lacks adequate lighting, lighting, has no marked marked bike lane and has no roadway markings to direct traf ﬁc in a safe and effective manner,” manner,” SamTrans misrepresents this road as dangerous and pushes its own agenda. Also, while Redwood Shores Parkway does have a bike lane for through traf ﬁc, the issue issue here is is that getting into the left-hand turn lane is what cyclists feel uncomfortable with on this fast-movi fast-moving, ng, high-traf ﬁc road. Being able to avoid Redwood Shores Parkway entirely is what we cyclists are asking for. Opening Pico Boulevard to through traf ﬁc would be a great short-term solution while we collaboratively laborativ ely work out a better longterm solution to this issue.

WASHINGTON — Jobless beneﬁts will run out for 2 million people during the holiday season unless they are renewed by a Congress that’s focusing more attention on a quarrel over preserving tax cuts for people making more than $200,000 a year.

Cañada hoops cruises to perfect 4-0 start By Josh Koehn DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Going from one of the worst to in a couple of seasons isn’t out of the question when it comes to junior college basketball. basketball. With heavy turnover occurring every year, the revolving revolving door can sometimes mean losing key key players in what feels like the blink of an eye. But the brief window of eligibility can also act as a turnstile to better talent. Cañada College men’s basketball coach Peter Diepenbrock ﬁrst

is hoping his club, 4-0 to begin the season, seaso n, conti continues nues to bene beneﬁt from the latter proposition. “That’s the thing about the junior college world, it does change dradramatically from one year to the next,” Diepenbrock said. “It’s not like we’re going to be playing against anybody who has been together for four years. Yeah, we got some new guys, but so does everybody everybody else.” else.” The Colts have been better than everybody else they’ve played this season, and they are only only one victory away from having half as many

wins as they had all of last year. Yet considering Cañada went 10-14 last season, which equaled the amount of wins the program had in the three previous years combined, combined, this seaseason’s early success is being viewed as a natural progression in Diepenbrock’s third year as coach. Getting surprisingly strong contributions from freshmen guards Isaih Tueta and Dwight Odom to compliment the play of established sophomores Ali Ali Ibrahim, Steven Sanders, Josh Tueta and Peter Pappageorge, has been the early recipe for suc-

cess. Pappageorge leads the club in scoring with 19.3 points per game and was named the MVP of the Hawks Invitational at Consumnes River College last weekend. “Peter, being a returning sophomore, mor e, deﬁnitely comes in with a lot of conﬁdence dence,” ,” Diep Diepenbr enbrock ock said. said. “He had a very successful freshman year,, so he knows year knows the leve level, l, know knowss the speed, speed, and he knows knows he’s he’s our main guy.

Bears blank aching Dolphins, 16-0 By Steven Wine

Gradkowski returns home Niners offense finding in back backup up quar quarter terbac back k rol role e a groove with Johnson By Josh Dubow THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALAMEDA — Bruce Gradkowski is ﬁnally fully healed from a separated throwing shoulder just in time for the Raiders to another trip Oakland to his hometown of make Pittsburgh — the site of his greatest NFL victory. The only problem for Gradkowski is that since he went down with the right shoulder shoulder injury Oct. Oct. 10, Jason Campbell has come on and taken back the starting quarterback job by leading the ﬁrst-place Raiders (5-4) to their ﬁrst three-game winning streak in eight years. So even though Gradkowski was supposed to regain his starting spot as soon as he was healthy healthy,, he heads into this week’s game against his hometown Steelers (6-3) backing up Campbell. “It’ss tough, because you always “It’ always want to play, play, especially in in the big games, and this is a big game for us,”” Grad us, Gradkow kowski ski said Thursday Thursday.. “We’re playing a good football team and you want to be part of that. But it fell at the wrong time.” Gradkowski Gradkow ski talked about the possibility of facing the Steelers again in the playof playoffs, fs, hope hopeful ful that that he could once again be the starter if that happened in January. But his job this week is to prepare prepare as if he’s he’s going to play even though the Raiders are hoping that won’t be necessary. Oakland made quarterback changes twice in wins already this season. Gradkowski replaced an ineffective Campbell at halftime of the home opener against St. Louis and led the Raiders to a 16-14 victory. Gradkowski then got hurt three weeks later against the Chargers and Campbell came on and rallied Oakland to the 35-27 win. “It’s tough to go into the game and you want to to be the starter, starter, but the toughest part is to stay focused

mentally throughout the week, because you are the backup, but you also know you could play, play,”” he said. “You could very easily play. But knowing know ing you’re you’re not starting, starting, you could get lazy a little bit on ﬁlm, and that’s where you’ve really got to focus. That’s where I really try to stay focused mentally and have to grind it out just like I’m s ta rt in g , and that’s the only way I’ll stay prepared.” Gradkowski’s g r e a t e s t Bruce moment as a Gradkowski Raider came in the fourth quarter last December in Pittsburgh in just his third start with Oakland. He threw three go-ahead touchdown passes, including an 11yarder to Louis Murphy with 9 seconds remaining to cap the 88-yard drive that gave Oakland the 27-24 victory. Gradkowski became the first Raiders quarterback to throw three touchdown passes in the fourth quarter since Orleans Ken Stabler didHe it against New in 1979. also is the only quarterback in the league since at least 1991 to throw three go-ahead touchdown passes in the fourth fourth quarter quarter,, accor according ding to STATS LLC. But he got hurt the following week against Washington and did not play the rest of the season. He was hurt again in the offseason and did not have a chance to compete with Campbell for the starting job in training camp but got it early in the season. He lost the job because of an injury once again and Campbell earned it back with strong play during the three-game winning streak. He has completed 58 percent of his passes for 743 yards, ﬁve touch-

downs and one interception as Oakland has put up 115 points in the wins over Denver Denver,, Seattle and Kansas City. “Of course I want to be out there playing and be a part of it and I feel like I“We ame astarted part ofthis part it,”last it,” Gradkowski Gradkows ki said. “W year, and year, we kind of brought it over to this year. There were some great games early on in the year, year, but it’s it’s good to see us just growing as a football team and like you guys have seen all year is someone’s got to step up. This guy may may down, down, this guy guy,, so I know there’s going to be a point again when I play this year, so that’s what I’ll be ready for.” Coach Tom Cable said he is impressed with the way Gradkowski has handled the situation and has talked with him about his decision to stick with Campbell instead of going back to Gradkowski as was originally planned. Cable also said that even though he has a healthy and proven backup in Gradkowski Gradkowski,, that doesn’t mean he will have a quick hook on Campbell if the offense struggles early against the Steelers. “To make the decision like I did with the fact that we’ve had the success that that we’ve we’ve had lately lately,, he’s earned earn ed that,” that,” Cabl Cablee said. “I think when someone earns something, they deserve to go out there and give it everything they’ve got.

SANTA CLARA — The San Francisco 49ers are spreading the ball around on offense like never before with Mike Johnson pulling the strings. In just his sixth game after being promoted to offensive coordinator Sept. 27, Johnson assembled a diversiﬁed attack last week against the St. Louis Rams that produced more yards from scrimmage than any San Francisco offense since 2004. The result was a 23-20 overtime victory that gave the 49ers their ﬁrst winning streak of the season and has their offensive playmakers excited about the way they all are getting involved. “The difference in our offense is that little spin that our new offensive coordinator has put in,” tight end Delanie Walker said Thursday. “It’s opened up the playbook and given everybody opportunities to make plays down the ﬁeld.” Walker, Wal ker, San Francisco’s Francisco’s complement to Pro Bowl tight end Vernon Davis, led the 49ers with four catches for 80 yards against the Rams.

who still got 22 carries against the Rams despite the team being in comeback mode. Gore had 154 yards from scrimmage against St. Louis and ranks second in the NFL in that category with 1,193 yards. “It’s a great thing we have going on, espec especiall ially y when we complete complete passes down the ﬁeld, eld,”” said Gore Gore,, who ranks third in the NFC with 778 yards rushing. “Now people can’t just think that we’re only going to run the ball.” Gore, Walker alker,, Davi Daviss and start starting ing wide receivers Michael Crabtree and Josh Morgan each had at least 61 yards receiving as the Rams designed their defensive game plan to stop Gore and the 49ers took advantage. Four of those ﬁve players had at least one reception of 30 yards or more as Troy Smith averaged 20.9 yards on his 17 completions. After taking over as the starter for an injured Alex Smith late last month, Troy Smith Smith has added a new dimension to the offense with his strong arm, abilit ability y to keep keep plays plays alive and conﬁdence to take chances. “The one thing I want to do is encourage encoura ge daring,” daring,” said Johnson, Johnson, the

Walker was one of ﬁve players to have at least least 60 yards receiving, receiving, the ﬁrst time that has happened in a game in franchise history. The 49ers are scoring 20.3 points a game since Johnson took control of the offense compared to 12.7 points in the ﬁrst three games of the season under former coordinator Jimmy Raye. San Francisco also is averaging 26 yards a game more under Johnson, and it’s not just because the 49ers are going to the air more. The offense continues to revolve around Pro Bowl running back Frank Gore,

team’s quarterbacks coach before being promoted. “I want to encourage the stuff that he has inside and allow that to come out without stiﬂing that. Troy played well last week, but it’s it’s all a part of putting the pieces together and just evolving and putting all the complements to the core running game that we have.” Johnson also is getting his offensive assistants more involved.

Ribeiro had gone the first 16 gamess without game without a goal, the longest longest drought to start a season in his 11year career.

King Felix! Felix! Hernande Hernandezz nabs AL Cy Young Young By Ben Walker THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK — For For once, once, Feli Felix x Hernandez got all the support he needed for a big win. The Seattle ace earned the AL Cy Young Award on Thursday despite a modest 13-12 record. His major league-leading league-lead ing 2.27 ERA and superior stats put him far ahead of Tampa Bay’s David Price and the Yankees’ CC Sabathia and their impressive win-loss numbers. Victimized by the Mariners’ poor hitting hitting all season, season, Hernandez found ample backing with the voters in this this pitchers’ pitchers’ duel duel.. They clearly recognized how little the last-place Mariners helped him — in 10 starts, starts, they were either shut

out or held to one run. “This conﬁrms the Cy Young is an award not only for the pitcher with the most wins, wins, but the most dominant, dominant,”” a teary-eyed Hernandez said while celebrating with relatives at the family home in Valencia, Valencia, Venezuela. King Felix got 21 of the 28 ﬁrstplace votes and 167 points in balloting by the Baseball Writers’ Association of America. The 24-yearold right-hander led the league in innings inni ngs (249 (249 2-3), 2-3), was second second in in strikeouts (232) and held AL opponents to the lowest batting average (.212).

appear inevitable ORLANDO — Commissioner Bud Selig’s plan to expand baseball’s playoffs to 10 teams seemed inevitable after little to no opposition emerged during meetings this week with owners and general managers. Because baseball’s labor contract runs to Decembe Decemberr 2011, the extra extra round of playoffs is not likely to start until 2012. Selig said his special 14-man committee will discuss adding two wild-card teams when it meets Dec. 7 during the winter meetings in nearby Lake Buena Vista. “Wee will move “W move ahead, and move ahead pretty pretty quickly quickly,” ,” Selig said said Thursday after three days of meetings concluded. A change would have to be approved by owners, owners, who next meet Jan. 12-13 in Paradise Valley Valley,, Ariz., and by the players’ players’ asso associati ciation, on, which has said it is open to the extra round. The additional games also would have to be sold to baseball’s national television partners and slotted into a crowded schedule that already has pushed the World Series

manager Joe Torre. There would be two wild-card teams in each league, and the wildwildcard teams would meet to determine which advances to division series with the three ﬁrst-place teams in each league. “I think it’s deﬁnitely worth looking at. I have no problem with that,” Yankees co-owner Hank Steinbrenner said. Some would have the new round be best-of-three, best-of-three, and others others would would have it as a one-game winner-takeall. The mechanics appear to be at issue more than the concept. “I pretty much know where all the constituencies are are now,” Selig said. “Eight is a very fair number but so is 10.” Before leaving the meeting, meeting, Texas Rangers president Nolan Ryan agreed with the premise that the extra round of playoffs was more a matter of how than if. “I think that’s that’s right,” right,” he said. Baseball doubled its postseason teams to four in 1969 and again to eight in 1995, 1995, a year later than intended because of a players’ players’ strike that wiped out the 1994 World Series. The vote to ﬁrst add wild cards took place in September 1993.

Once we pass pass something, something, I’m always anxious to get it done.” Selig’s committee includes managers Tony Tony La Russa, Jim Leyland and Mike Mike Sciosc Scioscia, ia, and forme formerr

“I got ripped and torn apart, and it was pretty bad,” bad,” Selig said. “If I had deﬁled motherhood I don’t think I could have gotten ripped any more than I did. But now it’s fascinating to me.

Attorney: Rogers made ’stupid Attorney:Rogers ’stupid decision’ with text about paying Newton to play By David Brandt THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

An attorney for Kenny Rogers said Thursday his client knows he made “a stupid decision decision”” when he sent a fellow fellow Mississippi State booster a text of Cecil Newton’s payment plan to secure his son’s commitment to the Bulldogs. “I’m not even sure Kenny completely understands unders tands why he did it,” Doug Zeit told The Associated Press. “The best I can tell you is Cecil Newton made a few calls insisti insisting ng that he do it, so Kenny went ahead and sent the text message.” Zeit conﬁrmed Rogers sent the text to Bill Bell requesting $80,000 the day after Cam Newton signed with MSU, $50,000 30 days later and another $50,000 30 days after that. Zeit says no money ever changed hands. “I can’t tell you what Cecil Newton was thinking, thinking,”” Zeit said. said. “What “What I do know is he told Kenny Rogers that it would take $180,000 to to sign his son, and he told him ’This is how I want it done.”’ Cam Newton eventually signed with Auburn, and the Heisman Trophy candidate has the second-ranked Tigers in contention for the national championship.

They have been truthful and candid with the NCAA.” The attorne attorney y added, added, “I don’t don’t think think there’s any question that Cam Newton knew nothing about any money discussions, sio ns, if any any money money discussions were had.” John Joh n Bond, Bond, a forformer Mississippi State quarterback, said in January he had been asked for Cam Newton $180,000 to secure Cam Newton’s commitment to Mississippi State and informed MSU of ﬁcials. Zeit told the AP that Rogers contacted Bond and left a voice message, but the two never never had a conversaconversation. Rogers told a Dallas radio station last week that that he, Cecil Newton Newton and and two Mississippi State assistant coaches met in a Starkville hotel on Nov. Nov . 27, 2009, when Newton ﬁrst mentioned the payfor-play plan. Mississippi State has said all of its employees acted properly.

He confirmed

Thursday that the Mississippi Secretary of State’s office wants to interview inter view Rogers, Rogers, though a date has has not been set.

A Lincoln MKZ with better better gas mileage mileage By Ann M. Job THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Luxury car buyers don’t have to pay a premium to get a hybrid anymore. The ﬁrst gasoline-electric-powered gasoline-electric-powered hybrid at Lincoln dealerships, the 2011 MKZ Hybrid, Hybrid, has the same sticker price as the gasoline-only, 2011 MKZ — $35,180. But it’s the hybrid version of MKZ that can deliver more miles from every gallon of gas. Virtual ﬂowers and leaves “grow” on a colorful display display in the instrument cluster as feedback for fuel-ef ﬁcient driving. The newest MKZ, which is a sibling sibling of the the Ford Fusion Fusion Hybrid, also ranks as the most fuel-ef ﬁcient luxury luxury sedan in Americ America, a, eve even n topping longtime hybrid seller Lexus. The federal government fuel ef ﬁciency rating for the MKZ Hybrid is 41 miles per gallon in city driving and 36 mpg on the highway, highway, compared with the 35/34-mpg rating given to the 2011 Lexus 250h. Hybrid cars can have higher city mileage ratings because city driving provides more opportunities for the gasoline engine to be supplemented by the onboard electric electric motor, motor, thereby reducing fuel demand. The test MKZ Hybrid didn’t look noticeably different from non-hybrid MKZ sedans. The front end is showy with a prominent chromecolored grille, grille, and the car won’t be confused with any other non-Lincoln sedan. I found the nearly 16-foot-long, 16-foot-long, midsize sedan to be neatly proportioned — not too big and not too small — so parking and driving was easy. Inside, the display in the instrument instrument cluster is dazzling and colorful. The displays would slide horizontally across the open cluster area and position themselves themselves in a way that reminded me

Chevrolet Volt wins green car prize By Dee-Ann Durbin THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DETROIT — While General Motors Co. was seeing greenbacks in its initial public offering offe ring on on Wall Wall Street Street Thurs Thursday day,, its Chevrolet brand was burnishing its green credentials. The 2011 Chevrolet Volt was named the Green Car of the Year Thursday at the Los Angeles Auto Show. It was the ﬁrst electric car to win win the prize, prize, which has been given given annually since 2005 by the Green Car Journal. Separately,, the Chevrolet brand Separately brand announced

that it’s donating $40 million to locally-based environmental projects across the U.S. with the goal of reducing carbon emissions by 8 million metric tons. That’s about the same amount of carbon dioxide emitted in one year by the 1.9 million Chevrolet vehicles expected to sell between now and the end of 2011. Mike Robinson, Robinson, GM’s vice president president for environment, environm ent, energy and safety, safety, said he thinks thinks the program is the ﬁrst aof its kind for any automaker. “This is something Chevrolet wanted to do to distinguish distinguish the brand, to say, say, ’Y ’You’re ou’re buying into a brand that represents a lot more than

the fuel economy and the features that you’re getting,’” getting, ’” Robinson told the Associated Press. Organizations Organizati ons will be able to apply for grants for projects like weatherizing schools or putting up small-scale wind energy projects. Joel Ewanick, GM’s vice vice president of U.S. marketmarketing, said it will probably probably take two years or longer for the projects to be chosen and the money to be doled out. The company will decide whether to extend the program as it develops. The green car award was the latest prize for the Volt, Volt, which runs on electricity for 40 miles before a backup gas engine kicks in. Earlier this week, week, Motor Trend and Automobil Automobilee

Magazine named the Volt the 2011 car of the year. It’s scheduled to go on sale next month. The Green Car Journal cited the Volt’s Volt’s unique backup engine, which eliminates drivers’ anxiety about running out of electric power. The ﬁve ﬁnalists for the prize included another electric electric car, car, the Nissan Leaf; two two hybrids, hybri ds, the Lincoln Lincoln MKZ MKZ and Hyundai Hyundai Sonata; and a subcompact, subcompact, the Ford Fiesta.

There’s information galore there in front of the driver in the MKZ Hybrid, but it was the speedomespeedometer and the virtual plant that kept me most preoccupied.

As in other hybrids, the trunk in the MKZ Hybrid has just 11.8 cubic feet of space compared with the 16.5 cubic feet in the trunk of a gas-only MKZ. The reason is that much of the space aft of the back seats and under the rear parcel shelf is needed for the battery pack that stores power for use by the electric motor. Still, getting most items into into and out hybrid’s trunk was not dif ﬁcult. The MKZ Hybrid comes with many standard ameniti amenities, es, and some, some, such as the heated heated and cooled front seats, are extras in other cars. cars.

You could argue that winter squashes like acorn, butternut and buttercup already are so sweet and creamy they don’t really need any adornment. And most days of the week that’s ﬁne.

Thanksgiving math Thanksgiving Thanksgiv ing is stres stressful sful enoug enough h without without also havin having g to to break break out the calculator and suffer through math class ﬂashbacks.So leave the calculating to us and use this holiday cheat sheet to make your life — and cooking — a little easier. All serving estimates are generous to allow for plenty of seconds and leftovers. HOW BIG?

For turkeys under 16 pounds,estimate 1 pound per serving (this accounts for bone weight).For larger birds,a bit less is ﬁne;they have a higher meatto-bone ratio.But if your goal is to have ample leftovers, leftovers, aim for 1 1/2 pounds per person whatever the turkey’s size. • For 8 people,buy a 12-pound turkey • For 10 people,buy a 15-pound turkey • For 12 people,buy an 18-pound turkey • For 14 people,buy a 20-pound turkey THE BIG THAW?

The safest safest way to thaw thaw a frozen turkey turkey is in the refriger refrigerator ator.You’ll .You’ll need need about 24 hours per 4 to 5 pounds of turkey.You also can put the turkey in a sink of cold water.Change the water every 30 minutes,and plan for about 30 minutes THE BRINE per pound. Never brine a turkey for more than about 8 to 10 hours.Much longer and the meat will be too salty.Always k eep the bird refrigerated during brining.If the turkey is too big,an ice-ﬁlled cooler stored outside works,too. THE ROAST

Roasting temperatures vary widely by recipe.Some go at a slow and steady 325 F.Others crank the heat to 400 F or 425 F for the ﬁrst hour,then drop it down for the rest of the time. However you roast,use an instant thermometer inserted at the innermost part of the thigh (without touching bone) to determine when your turkey is done.The meat needs to hit 165 F for safe eating,though some people say thigh meat tastes better at 170 F. Thefollowing owing roas roasting tingtim time e estim estimate atess are are bas based ed on a stuff stuffed ed tur turkey key cook cooked ed at 325 F.Reduce cooking time by 20 to 40 minutes for turkeys that are not stuffed.And remember,a remember,a crowded oven cooks more slowly,so plan ahead if your bird needs to share the space. • 12-pound turkey:3 to 4 hours at 325 F • 15-pound turkey:4 to 4 1/2 hours at 325 F • 18-pound turkey:4 1/2 to 5 hours at 325 F • 20-pound turkey:5 to 6 hours at 325 F THE REST

The turkey should never go directl directlyy from from the the oven oven to the table.Like table.Like most meat,it needs to rest at least 20 minutes for the juices to redistribute.

Cracking Crac king the Than Thanksgi ksgiving ving code By Michele Kayal

“You put the bird in the oven with a temperature differential already built in,” McGee says. That That way, way, the legs and the breasts reach their different (and ideal) temperatures at the same time. You also could brine the turkey (which plumps the meat with moisture before it goes into the oven). But McGee says to beware the tradeoffs. While brining will yield a juicy breast, breast, it also will give give you over-salted stuf ﬁng and pan juices. “It depends on what you want out of your turkey,” turkey ,” he says.

same time.” Which means roasting perfectly done thighss usually thigh usually results results in dry, dry, stri stringy ngy breast meat. What’s a cook to do? Leave it to a scientist to crack that code. McGee’s suggestion? Chill the turkey breasts with ice packs before the bird goes in the oven. This is easy to do. Turkeys should be brought to room temperature before before roasting, roasting, but leave leave the breasts covered with ice packs during that time.

Other Thanksgiving pointers: Basting Trade off time again. The good news is that basting slows the cooking of the bird. This gives you a better chance of catching the turkey at just the right temperature. But it also usually results in ﬂabby skin, so kiss that crisp skin skin goodbye. Mashed potatoes So long as you treat treat them gently gently,, it doesn’t matter what kind of potato you use. “If you just mash them barely, barely, what

you end up with are intact little cells and clumps of cells that are surrounded by a wonderful mixture of butter and milk and whatever else you’ve added,” McGee says. “If you break the cells open, that’s when you release release the starch inside the cells...That’s when you get that gloppy, gloppy, sticky result.” Nuke it Thanksgiving green beans and other vegetables will retain more vitamins when cooked in the microwa microwave, ve, which McGee says quickly breaks down the enzymes that degrade vitamins.

Sweet potatoes, potat oes, on the other hand, hand, do just ﬁne. Weigh, don’t measure Get this: this: a tablespoon tablespoon of table table salt weighs twice as much as a tablespoon of kosher salt. So replace your measuring spoons and cups with a scale. And, while you’re at it, it, pick up a digital thermomethermometer. “Especially on Thanksgiving, Thanksgiving, that will help you get the leg and breast meat done just right,” right,” McGee says.

Keep the stuf ﬁng traditional, traditional, Harrsen suggests,, with either gests either white white bread or corncornbread,celery,, onion bread,celery onion,, broth and some some of the spices you used on the turkey.

And the sweet potatoes couldn’t be simpler — roast them in the jackets until they’re good and caramelized, then sprinkle them with a bit of salty soy sauce. “Thanksgiving is a fun day to blend a lot of culinary traditions,” traditions,” Nguyen says. “That’s what Thanksgiving is.” If you’re feeling truly adventurous, delve into the ﬂavors of North Africa.
