“A mobster’s deaf nephew needed a job…” begins a tale told by Ronald Burdett, Vice President of Community Relations for Sorenson Communications®. Engrossed in the story, it is easy to forget that the narrator is actually two people: the person telling the story using American Sign Language
enhanced by body language and expressive facial characterizations… and a skilled interpreter. Bridging the communication gap between deaf and hearing communities in the United States has come a long way from the days of Alexander Graham Bell who, while promoting communication for both deaf and hearing people and married to a deaf
woman, retained a curiously antithetical attitude toward deafness. Although attitudes in both hearing and deaf communities vary, there is little debate that communication within each group and between them is essential. What may be taken for granted by those with hearing, can become a formidable obsta-

October 10, 2011 marks the 100th anniversary of California women winning the right to vote; nine years before passage of the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. California was the sixth state to win the vote. Women suffragists and the men who supported them waged an eight month long campaign, which narrowly passed in California, with San Francisco leading the opposition. Western states were the first to embrace what was

then considered a radical political position. In the late 1800’s and early 1900’s, it was a widely held belief that a woman’s place was in the home, and that women had no place in politics. The League of Women Voters, the American Association of University Women, the National Organization for Women, Patterson House and the Fremont Main Library have collaborated on a commemorative celebration to the be held at the Fremont Main Library on Saturday, October 15, at 2:30 p.m. Please join us for a Reader’s Theater per-
formance highlighting women who were prominent in the suffragette campaign in California. A display featuring campaign posters, photographs and ephemera from the suffragette effort is available for view on the second floor of the Fremont Main Library through October 31. The Fremont Main Library is a branch of the Alameda County Library system and is located at 2400 Stevenson Boulevard, Fremont. The Library is wheelchair accessible. No reservation is required. For an ASL interpreter, call the library at least seven working days before the event. For more information, contact the Fremont Main Library at 510-745-1401 or Janet Cronbach at 510-745-1429.

A Life-saving Screening New technologies improve colorectal cancer screening and staging
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that approximately 142,500 people will be diagnosed with colorectal cancer this year—and nearly 51,400 will die of the disease. But up to 60 percent of those deaths could be prevented by screening tests that detect colorectal cancer early, when it can be more successfully treated. “The gold standard of screening is a colonoscopy,” says Arun Srivatsa, M.D., a gastroenterologist on the medical staff at Washington Hospital. “With a colonoscopy, we can detect and remove pre-cancerous polyps—growths inside the large intestine. This prevents them from turning into cancer. Tests that only detect cancer, such as tests that measure blood in the stool, don’t allow for removing polyps.”
Making Testing More Effective In a colonoscopy, a thin, flexible tube with a miniature camera is inserted through the rectum to look inside the large intestine while the patient is under moderate anesthesia. Flexible sigmoidoscopy, a similar procedure, only views about the first half of the colon. Plus, anesthesia is generally not used for sigmoidoscopy, so there may be some discomfort. “Doing a sigmoidoscopy is a bit like doing a mammogram only on one side,” Dr. Srivatsa notes. “The worst part of a colonoscopy or sigmoidoscopy usually is preparing for it, taking medication the night before to clean out the colon and possibly an enema that morning. Since preparation is the same for either procedure, you might as well view the entire colon.”
Recent improvements in colonoscopy include high-definition endoscopes that produce clearer, high-resolution images. Dr. Arun Srivatsa, a Washington Hospital gastroenterologist, is using a new high-definition diagnostic tool called endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) that can better detect cancer within the colon and adjacent tissues. Washington Hospital is the first facility in the East Bay to offer EUS.
60% of colorectal cancer deaths can be prevented if the disease is detected and treated early Another new diagnostic tool, endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), combines endoscopy and ultrasound to obtain detailed images of internal body structures. A small ultrasound device embedded in the tip of the endoscope is inserted via the mouth or rectum. EUS equipment was installed this spring at Washington Hospital, making it the first facility in the East Bay to offer EUS. “Endoscopic ultrasound can be used for ‘staging,’ providing information about the spread of cancer within the colon and adjacent tissues,” Dr. Srivatsa says. “It also can scan other nearby body structures, giving us a much wider view with very detailed images. We can use EUS to evaluate the pancreas, liver, esophagus, stomach, gall bladder, spleen, lungs and the adrenal gland above the kidney in addition to the colon. “If a CT scan shows a lump somewhere, we can use EUS to get a better picture and biopsy the suspicious area at the same time without puncturing through the skin,” he says. “It’s a less invasive method of imaging and performing biopsies that avoids damage to other body structures.”
Getting a Better View Recent improvements in colonoscopy include highdefinition endoscopes that produce clearer, high-resolution images. Washington Hospital now has PENTAX i-SCAN equipment that uses a high-definition video chip and monitors that are like HD TVs. “The i-SCAN provides better polyp detection, especially in the right colon, which is harder to view,” Dr. Srivatsa says. “We are the only facility in Fremont to offer i-Scan colonoscopies. The i-Scan also can be used to examine the esophagus, stomach and small bowel.” The risk of colorectal cancer increases with age, so the CDC and American Cancer Society both recommend colonoscopy screenings at least every 10 years for people over age 50. People with a higher risk for colorectal cancer should be screened earlier and more often. In addition to age and family history, some other risk factors include smoking, lack of exercise, obesity, a diet high in red meat and excess alcohol consumption. “With the latest technology right here in Fremont, patients don’t have to cross the bay for accurate diagnosis and treatment of colorectal cancer or other gastrointestinal disorders,” Dr. Srivatsa says. “The preparation is still not a pleasant prospect, but that’s one night of discomfort in exchange for peace of mind knowing that your insides are healthy.”

cle for deaf people. Several companies, Sorenson Communications® chief among them, have concentrated on serving the deaf community through technology that enhances the speed and accuracy of deaf-to-deaf and deaf-tohearing communication. Some communications, critical as 9-1-1 service or mundane as voice mail, present challenges when attempting to transmit information quickly and accurately. How is a message left when the receiving party is unavailable? How much time is wasted when essential information is required to respond to an emergency? Voice Relay Service has been a great help allowing typed messages from a deaf person to be spoken, in turn, to a hearing person. This can be slow and cumbersome and even when computer email systems allow direct communication, there is little to speed up a one-way transfer then waiting to allow another one-way transfer for dialogue. Video relay services have helped to speed up the process, but without rapid communication and local assistance, efficient resolution of emergency situations can be problematic. The Sorenson Communications® group presentation at California School for the Deaf in Fremont on October 6 was met with enthusiastic applause (hand waves) by the audience. Introducing the unique “ntouch® VP Videophone, the newest in a series of communication devices with innovative
features such as a light ring that flashes with a unique pattern to signal and identify favored callers and auto-focused high resolution video transmission. Sorenson also provides inten-
sive training for interpreters to facilitate the enhanced video message system. The ability for deaf customers to send and receive phone calls through signing rather than laborious typing and waiting for a reply is a quantum leap. A unique phone number to send, receive and hold video calls also represents a major change. Videophones take a variety of forms including an appliance for television sets and computers to software for hand-held devices and mobile apps. According to Burdett, these systems are built specifically for the deaf community to accommodate their requirements since other devices typically have been developed with hearing customers in mind. As a consequence, many “advantages” of phones de-
signed for hearing people and are of little or no use to deaf consumers. Swift, in-focus transmission of visual signals is critical to capture quick body movements and facial expressions of American Sign Language. In emergency situations, fast transmission of information may be the difference to assure success. To demonstrate the importance of communication and the critical function of a qualified and honest interpreter, Burdett finished his story: The nephew was hired to collect payoffs from mob “clients.” As weeks went by, collections failed to equal amounts due and the uncle became suspicious. Through an interpreter, he asked his nephew about the discrepancy. At first the nephew denied any wrongdoing, but facing a fatal consequence, he quickly confessed that he had buried the money under a nearby tree. The interpreter translated his confession… “I didn’t take the money; I don’t know where it is!”… And the nephew was dispatched. Guess who got the money!

WHAT’S HAPPENING’S TRI-CITY VOICE
In Calif, wine grapes good but in short supply TRACIE CONE ASSOCIATED PRESS FRESNO, Calif. (AP), Oct 11 _ Imagine preparing a gourmet meal short of key ingredients and you'll understand California winemaker Jason Haas' dilemma this year. The one-two wallop of a late freeze and early rains have combined in this 2011 vintage year to create a dearth on the Central Coast of thin-skinned white grapes such as Viognier, Marsanne and Grenache blanc, critical ingredients in Haas' Tablas Creek Rhone-style blends. “Our Viognier is down 80 percent,'' said Haas, adding the later-emerging red grapes fared better against the weather. “Usually when we're down, it's down uniformly across the board. It's going to be a challenge to do the blending this year.” Across the state yields are down in 2011 but quality is predicted to be exceptional, thanks to Mother Nature delivering a mild summer season. Without drastic temperature spikes that cause sugar levels to climb too quickly, clusters are spending more time developing flavor nuances on the vine. continued on page 27

BY ANGELA SZETO
Navigating Russian Hill in San Francisco and finding parking is hard enough if you’re a millennial driving a VW Bug, but imagine what it’s like if you’re 80 and trying to parallel park uphill! Everyone ages differently so there’s not an arbitrary cutoff point for when a person should stop driving. However, studies show that the rate of fatal accidents increases for drivers above the age of 70. So, how do we talk to our parents about their driving? It’s definitely more difficult than trying to borrow the car keys when we were 16 years old. We all equate the act of driving to being free and independent. In talking with our parents about driving, we need to be respectful and understand that this is a transition for all parties involved. First and foremost is to approach your parents before driving becomes a concern. Talk with them about how aging affects driving and the steps that they should take to maintain safe driving practices. Have a checklist available that encourages open discussions about: 1) Yearly vision tests 2) Annual hearing tests 3) Effects of medication 4) Changes in their range of motion and strength during driving 5) Memory concerns
6) Driving the right car 7) Buying the right products for your car, i.e., bigger rearview mirror (check out (www.disabilityproducts.com) 8) Alternatives to driving, i.e., offer rides, pay for public/private transportation. It also helps for our parents to hear input from different impartial parties (including siblings, friends, doctors, etc.) regarding best driving practices. Talking with parents about the cost saving techniques on not owning a car (insurance/tax/parking rates) is another option. If you need to discourage your parents from driving, borrow their car when yours is in the shop. During that time, encourage them to use alternative transportation (Muni, BART, or private drivers) and discuss their experience with them. Should your parents still insist on driving, you can actually request your local DMV to help by administering a driving test for them due to a report that they were driving erratically on the street. Be prepared with constructive solutions to their objections. Remember that this represents a loss of independence for them and like any other transition they will need time to adjust.

BY FRANK TOBE This holiday season, people are looking to get their money's worth from gift giving. Gifts need to be phenomenal, practical or inexpensive. In the phenomenal category, what's more exciting than getting a robot as a holiday gift? For Grandparents and teenagers: Parrot AR.Drone QuadriCopter - $299
WHAT’S HAPPENING’S TRI-CITY VOICE
Two cameras, front-facing and bottom-facing, stream live video to the screen of your tablet or smartphone for capture. Augmented Reality (AR) apps enable dog fights and video games. $299 at Amazon plus the cost of the apps. For Mom: iRobot's Scooba bathroom floor cleaning robot - $299 A floor-washing robot for bathrooms, kitchens and other non-carpeted floors. Removes up to 98% of common household bacteria from hardwood, tile and linoleum floors. Cleans bathroom floors better than competing robotic products. $299 from Amazon plus $13 for cleaning fluid. For Dad: Adaptive cruise control robot option for new cars - $599 $2,495 With embedded robotic systems, cars keep getting smarter and safer all the time. Adaptive cruise control is a “smart” system that actively maintains a
preset distance between vehicles rather than a preset speed. A laser or radar range finder sensor in the front of the vehicle measures the distance to the vehicle ahead and automatically maintains a safe distance as traffic speeds up and slows down. Available in higher-end versions from most car companies at
prices ranging from $495 to $2,500. Lane awareness, night vision pedestrian detection, and car-to-car danger warning systems are in the wings.

For the philanthropic: MyKeepon - $49 (part of the proceeds go to support autism research). Originally developed to study nonverbal interaction and social development with autistic children, its $30,000 price tag kept it away from most. Now reconfigured to be a toy, a portion of the revenue will be used to enable researchers and practitioners to use the $30,000 Keepon version of the robot in autism therapy. Available exclusively from Toys R Us in the U.S. for $49. - OR Donate a $280,000 PR2 to your alma mater's robotics lab.

Family Giving Tree Needs Warehouse Space SUBMITTED BY BARBARA LEWIS
F
amily Giving Tree (http://www.familygivingtree.org) is in urgent need of warehouse space from November 21, 2011-January 7, 2012 in which to process donations of gifts to this year’s 22nd annual Holiday Wish Drive. The drive will serve approximately 60,000 Bay Area children this holiday season. “With the Holiday Wish Drive gearing up and gift delivery from host organizations beginning in early December, the need to acquire warehouse space now is very urgent,” says Family Giving Tree Chief Operations Officer David Bratton-Kearns. “We need a minimum of 100,000 square feet with a lot of open floor space. For a complete listing of our needs, see our Warehouse Wish List on our website.” According to Bratton-Kearns, any location within Silicon Valley is suitable. “In past years, we have relied on the generosity of companies like Cisco Systems, NVIDIA, Wells Fargo, Juniper Networks and iStar Financial that have provided temporary warehouse space for us during our Holiday Wish and Back to School drives. We urge any company with sufficient empty space to contact us as soon as possible. They may contact me, David Bratton-Kearns, at davidbk@familygivingtree.org or 408-946-3111, extension 200, or Program Manager Al Galan at al@familygivingtree.org or 408946-3111, extension 228.” During the Holiday Wish Drive, low income children who have registered with recipient social services agencies and schools are identified and interviewed to name their specific gift wishes. The Holiday Wish Drive requests are printed on cards and distributed by the Family Giving Tree to host companies, schools, churches and community organizations throughout the Bay Area. Businesses place Giving Trees in areas where their employees and/or customers may donate gifts. Participants choose a card from the tree, purchase the requested gift and return it with the wish card. Approximately 6,000 volunteers at the Family Giving Tree’s warehouse collect, sort, wrap and distribute the gifts to the recipient agencies for presentation to the individual children.

Donkey, dogs among candidates for NM town 'mayor' AP WIRE SERVICE CORRALES, N.M. (AP), Sep 22 - Apparently, there's a lot of barking, pecking and galloping in one New Mexico town's election. That's because dogs, horses, a chicken, a donkey, and a pair of alpacas are among the candidates aiming to become “pet mayor” of Corrales. The eight beastly candidates have been campaigning since mid-August and their owners -- or campaign managers -- have been urging residents to cast $1 ballots online and at participating local businesses. The election is part of the annual Corrales Harvest Festival scheduled for this weekend and proceeds go to Kiwanis Foundation of Corrales. Sherman, a horse, was giving out horseshoes for votes. Asked if his campaign was buying votes, his campaign manager said they were from Chicago. Corrales Mayor Philip Gasteyer is scheduled to announce the winner on Sunday.

Chicago named most 'mustache-friendly' AP WIRE SERVICE ST. LOUIS (AP), Sep 28 - Chicago may be known as the Second City, but when it comes to mustaches, the Windy City is No. 1. The St. Louis-based American Mustache Institute on Wednesday proclaimed Chicago the most ``mustache-friendly'' city in America. For the honor, Chicago will host the institute's annual `Stache Bash charitable benefit on Oct. 28. The tongue-in-cheek institute interviewed 200 “mustached Americans” in 100 cities to determine the most mustache-friendly locale. The institute's chairman, Aaron Perlut, says the heritage of retired Chicago Bears players who continue to wear mustaches helped set Chicago apart. Houston was second to Chicago, followed by Pittsburgh, Oklahoma City, Okla., and Detroit. The ‘Stache Bash event will be at Joe's Bar in Chicago and will help raise awareness and funds for cancers affecting men.

Regulations not a huge jobs killer BY CALVIN WOODWARD AND CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON (AP), Oct 11 - Is regulation strangling the American entrepreneur? Several Republican presidential candidates say so. The numbers don't. The anti-regulatory fervor was in evidence Tuesday night in the latest GOP debate, but rhetorical flourishes, on that and other issues, masked far more complex realities. A look at some of the claims and how they compare with the facts. MITT ROMNEY: “All of the Obama regulations, we say no. It costs jobs.” RICK PERRY: Regulations “are strangling the American entrepreneurship out there.” RICK SANTORUM: “Repeal every regulation the Obama administration put in place.” THE FACTS: Labor Department data show that only a
tiny percentage of companies that experience large layoffs cite government regulation as the reason. Since Barack Obama took office, just two-tenths of 1 percent of layoffs have been due to government regulation, the data show. Businesses frequently complain about regulation, but there is little evidence that it is any worse now than in the past or that it is costing significant numbers of jobs. Most economists believe there is a simpler explanation: Companies aren't hiring because there isn't enough consumer demand. The conservative National Federation of Independent Business asks its small-business membership each month to name the single most important problem they're facing. Last month, the most common response was “poor sales,” cited by 28 percent. Government regulation came in second, at 18 percent. Concerns over regulation
have increased in the past two years - only 11 percent cited it in April 2009, not long after Obama entered the White House. But the rise hasn't been outside historical norms. More small businesses complained about regulation during the administrations of President Bill Clinton and the President George H.W. Bush, according to an analysis of the federation's data by the liberal Economic Policy Institute. High levels of economic uncertainty are another drag on business, but economists say that's less due to regulation than to fights over government spending and taxes. Both consumer and business confidence fell in August, for example, as the White House and Congress wrangled over the nation's borrowing limit. But that was a bipartisan dispute that can't be solely pinned on Obama.--REP. MICHELE BACHMANN: “We have a big prob-
lem today when it comes to Medicare, because we know that nine years from now, the Medicare hospital Part B Trust Fund is going to be dead flat broke.” She also charged that “President Obama plans for Medicare to collapse, and instead everyone will be pushed into Obamacare.” THE FACTS: Bachmann is mixing up Medicare while exaggerating the danger of insolvency. Part B is not for hospital payments, but for outpatient care, and it's technically impossible for that part of Medicare to go broke because it is financed by the federal government's general fund and by beneficiary premiums. Medicare's Part A is the hospital trust fund, and it is now projected to become insolvent in 2024, 13 years in the future. Even then it would be able to pay 90 percent of its obligations, a far cry from “dead flat broke.” When the fund has been threatened in the past, Con-
gress has come through with changes that restrained program growth, largely by cutting provider payments. There is no evidence to support her charge that Obama plans for Medicare to collapse; his health care law envisions nothing like that. In fact, a Republican budget that Bachmann voted for would make far larger changes to the program for the next generation, converting it to a voucher-like system.--HERMAN CAIN: Repeatedly touted his 9-9-9 tax plan as a “bold” overhaul of the tax code that would get the economy back on track, and be embraced by the nation. THE FACTS: Cain's plan is bold, and some economists think it includes features that would help the economy. But it is unlikely that the millions of low- and middle-income families who would face significant continued on page 23
October 14, 2011 continued from page 22
tax increases will embrace it. The wealthy, however, would probably love it because they would get big tax cuts. Cain would eliminate the payroll taxes that fund Social Security and Medicare, and replace the progressive federal income tax with a flat 9 percent tax on income. He would lower the corporate income tax from 35 percent to 9 percent, and impose a new 9 percent national sales tax. Cain argued Tuesday night that low-income workers would pay less because he would eliminate payroll taxes, which total 15.3 percent of wages, when employer and employee shares are included. But his analysis omits the fact that most low-income households make a profit from the federal income tax because they qualify for so many credits, deductions and exemptions. The result is that most low-income families currently pay less than 9 percent of their income in federal taxes. Nearly half of all U.S. households - mostly low-and middle-income families - pay no federal income taxes at all, according to the Joint Committee on Taxation, the official scorekeeper for Congress. Additionally, all households would face a new 9 percent national sales tax, again disproportionately impacting those with lower incomes who spend all or most of their money. High-income households would get a tax cut from the lower income tax rate. Also, Cain's proposal would eliminate taxes on capital gains. --ROMNEY: “On Day One, I will issue an executive order identifying China as a currency manipulator...If you're not willing to stand up to China, you'll get run over by China. And that's what's happened for 20 years.”
WHAT’S HAPPENING’S TRI-CITY VOICE
JON HUNTSMAN: “I don't subscribe to the Don Trump school or the Mitt Romney school of international trade. I don't want to find ourselves in a trade war.... We have to get used to the fact that, as far as the eye can see into the 21st Century, it's going to be the United States and China on the world stage.” THE FACTS. Economists largely agree with Huntsman, who was U.S. ambassador to China earlier in the Obama administration, that confronting China head on over currency manipulation would bring retaliation against U.S. business. The policy debate among Republicans - Democrats, too - is whether that risk is worth it. Few dispute that China manipulates its currency by pegging it to the dollar. However, opponents of confronting China worry about a trade war that the fragile global economy cannot afford. China may have more to lose than the U.S. if trade in goods were curtailed. But Washington depends heavily on China to buy U.S. Treasury securities to help finance its budget deficits. --PERRY: Pointed to “the 54,600 jobs that have been created” by two state funds used for attracting businesses to Texas or helping new companies get started. THE FACTS: The funds have not delivered that many jobs yet. Lucy Nashed, a Perry spokeswoman, said figures for 2011 are not available, but as of the end of 2010, the funds had only created 30,749 actual new positions in the state. To be sure, the 89 firms that have received $439.5 million in state money have several years to create the jobs. But one study found nearly half the companies that got money had not met their goals. In many cases, the governor's staff allowed the companies
to renegotiate their contracts or pay back a percentage of the funds they received. --BACHMANN: “I think if you look at the problem with the economic meltdown, you can trace it right to the federal government, because it was the federal government that demanded that banks and mortgage companies lower platinum-level lending standards to new lows. It was the federal government that pushed the subprime loans.'' THE FACTS: It might be argued that the government pursued policies under both Democratic and Republican presidents to promote home ownership, such as setting up mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to make more affordable mortgages possible, and the tax deduction for home mortgages. But it's a stretch to suggest that federal regulators forced banks to make mortgage loans to people who could not afford them. And neither Bachmann nor most other Republican presidential contenders are calling for a repeal of the home-mortgage deduction. Many of the subprime loans that inflated the housing bubble were not made by banks, but by mortgage companies that weren't regulated by the federal government. A big reason they made the loans was because they could profit by selling them to Wall Street investment banks, which made money by packaging them into securities and selling them. --Associated Press writers Tom Raum, Stephen Ohlemacher and Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar in Washington; Brian Bakst in St. Paul, Minn.; and Chris Tomlinson in Austin, Texas, contributed to this report.

UC San Diego edges Cal State East Bay in thriller SUBMITTED BY KELLY HAYES The Cal State East Bay volleyball team took the first two sets from No. 16 UC San Diego before the Tritons pulled off an astounding comeback to claim a 3-2 (21-25, 20-25, 25-12, 25-21, 15-13) victory in five sets on October 8 at Pioneer Gym. Though the Pioneers (10-6, 5-6 CCAA) outhit UCSD and had three players post double-digit kills, the Tritons (11-4, 7-4) won the final three sets to avoid extending their losing streak to four matches and finish the first half of the conference season with a win. In a match where neither team hit at a high percentage, the Pioneers finished with 57 kills – their third-highest total this season – to out-do the Tritons, whose kills per set average entering the week ranked 12th in all of Division II. Sophomore Katie Allen and juniors Nicole Boyle and Kitona Offord led the way, combining for 43 of East Bay’s 57 putaways. The trio provided a balanced attack for the Pioneers, who got 46 assists from junior Kristin Neary, her second highest total of the season. Allen laid down 16 kills and notched 10 digs, while Boyle had 14 kills and 17 digs leading to a pair of double-doubles, their fifth and sixth of the season, respectively. Offord was again efficient on the attack, leading all players by hitting at a .312 clip with 13 kills and posting a match-high five total blocks. In the back row, Leslie Ray posted a team-high 25 kills and got help from Boyle and Allen, as well as Tatum Bales, who came off the bench to provide some stellar defense with
17 digs, a new season-high for the sophomore. Neary also posted a double-double, adding 13 digs to her 46 assists and two total blocks. UC San Diego managed just one more block than the Pioneers, who got help in the middle from Morgan Hirzel with three blocks and six kills and Samantha Bruno, who tallied five kills and one block assist. UCSD’s Hillary Williamson and Lauren Demos paced the team with 14 and 12 kills, respectively. Williamson completed the doubledouble with 26 digs to lead the team, while three other players – Brittany Lombardi, Roxanne Brunsting and Janessa Werhane – posted double-figure digs to allow the Tritons to live up to their top ranking in the conference in digs per set. Brunsting and Amber Hawthorne shared the setting duties, dishing out 26 and 21 assists, respectively. Both Brunsting and Williamson posted solo blocks to help the Tritons finish with an 8-7 advantage at the net. UC San Diego also took advantage of a poor serving night from the Pioneers, who had 13 service errors, while dropping in eight aces of its own, led by Williamson’s four. Cal State East Bay will look to start off the second half of the CCAA campaign on a high note, as it takes to the road next weekend to meet Cal State Dominguez Hills and Cal State LA for the rematches of the league opening set. The Pioneers and Toros are set for a 6 p.m. first serve in Carson on Oct. 14, while the Golden Eagles will look to complete the season sweep at 7 p.m. on Oct. 15 in Los Angeles.

Moreau Catholic continues to roll past opposition SUBMITTED BY COACH ROSE BORJA The Lady Mariners continue to roll with their winning streak today (October 11) by beating Bishop O'Dowd - 70. It's been a long time coming but Moreau Catholic finally overcame BOD's domineering streak and blasted the Dragons to remain undefeated in the league. Moreau's first win for the match unfortunately was a forfeit of BOD's #3 doubles team. Scheduled to play for Moreau at the #3 doubles line were sophomores Kimberly Omaque and Aryssa Bembo. This will be the duo's second appearance playing #3 doubles. The #1 and #2 doubles team won their matches easily by beating their opponents in straight sets. The #2, #3 and #4 singles spot won their matches as well in straight sets. The #1 singles spot of Nicole Dawang and Jenny Budd was an intense match to watch. Budd was ahead in the first set 5-2 but Nicole fought a hard battle to come back and win the next five games to overtake Budd's lead in the set and winning it 7-5. Dawang controlled the second set and finished Budd off with a 6-3 win giving Moreau Catholic their final score of 7-0. Congratulations to the Lady Mariners! Here are the individual scores: Singles: 1S) Nicole Dawang (MC) d. Jenny Budd (BOD) 7-5, 6-3 2S) Jana Lee (MC) d. Kristina Lorch (BOD) 6-0, 6-0 3S) LIsa Wilson (MC) d.

Football League Action SUBMITTED BY NANCY CROSS In the National Pool, the 49ers held their lead with a dominating performance over the Eagles, 50 to 0, in just three
the 49ers by a 20-point win over the Steelers. They are just one game back. The coach attributes this to their innovative play calling and conditioning program. In the American Pool, there is
against the Chargers on Saturday. Here are the scores from Saturday’s action: Chiefs 52 - Chargers 0 Giants 32 - Panthers 0 49ers 50 - Eagles 0
quarters. In this pool the 49ers’ offense has been very impressive by running up over 224 points this year. Their defense has been very stingy just giving up 6 points. The Bucs kept pace with
another tight race - the Raiders and the Viking, both winning Saturday. Right now, in the Continental Pool, the Chiefs are the team to beat. They ran up 52 points
Bucs 20 - Steelers 0 Rams 40 - Redskins 8 Vikings 32 - Jets 6 Bears 22 - Patriots 18 Raiders 52 - Broncos 0
SUBMITTED BY BRETT HUFF The MVU U16 Adrenaline traveled to De Anza HS in San Pablo to face the WCCYSL Odyssey on Saturday. After adjusting to the speed of the artificial turf field, the Adrenaline defeated the Odyssey 2-0 with stout defense and the tending of goalie Samantha Stephens. Both Adrenaline goals were netted by Allison Huff playing tough in front of the Odyssey net. Sunday at Central Park in Fremont, Adrenaline played the shorthanded San Pablo Comets to a 6-0 win. The San Pablo girls played with heart and spirit the entire game but could not generate any significant offense against the defense of the Adrenaline and the goalie tandem of Stephens and Huff who combined for the shutout. Goals were scored by Ahern, Huff, Swartz, Mejia, Hayes, and Petersen. Starting tender Stephens was moved to forward for the second half and Huff came in to complete the shutout in net. The girls are 6-0 in league play and lead their division.

Full bladders, wasabi alarm earn Ig Nobels BY MARK PRATT ASSOCIATED PRESS
SUBMITTED BY FRANK MCCLUNG (FROM NOW ON KNOWN AS ‘MAC’S DAD’) Mac just won his first college golf tournament October 11 at the Firestone Invitational in Akron, OH. Not only did Mac win, but his score propelled St. Mary’s to the team title as well. The St. Mary’s team now has 2 wins in their first four events this year and will most likely be ranked in the top 25 in the nation when new rankings are posted. As some of you know in most college events they play 36 holes the first day (carrying their own bags, no caddies allowed) and then 18 more on the second day. Mac had been playing well this year with three top 25 finishes, but was not getting as much out of his scoring as he had been expecting. Last week at Edgewood (South Lake Tahoe, Ca) he finally got a good result in the final round, 70 in very blustery conditions. That tied for the second lowest round of the entire event. Mac’s first 18 was solid and he finished birdie, birdie for a 71. Unfortunately, that was the low score for our team in that round and we were in ninth place going to round two (BTW – They don’t stop, they just keep playing). Well the afternoon was something special. Mac fired a -6 (66) and led the team to a -9 score that put Mac in first place and the team one shot off the lead. When the players and teams were reseeded for Tuesday’s final round, Mac was playing in the final group with the two guys who were a shot off the lead as individuals and whose teams (Indiana and SMU) were the leaders after day one. I was a little nervous (to say the least) as I went to work Tuesday. I checked in with Golfstat for the first time right about the time that Mac should have been making the turn. When I looked at the scores I could not believe what I was seeing. Mac had put up five birdies in the first nine holes! I was hopping up and down, pumping my fist in the hallway like a crazy person. I figured that he must have looked over at the other two guys that he was playing with on the 10th tee and thought, “you guys got something for that!” He proceeded to close with eight pars and a bogie for a -4 (68) and won the event. He had three rounds under par (71-66-68) and won by four strokes! You can read the article on the SMC web site: http://www.smcgaels.com/SportSelect.dbml?&DB_OEM _ID=21400&SPID=12529&SPSID=101580
BOSTON (AP), Sep 29 - Driving while desperately needing to urinate isn't a crime, but maybe it should be. Peter Snyder and his colleagues found that having a bladder at its bursting point reduced attention span and the ability to make decisions to the same degree expected with low levels of alcohol intoxication or 24 hours of sleep deprivation. The research earned them the 2011 Ig Nobel prize for medicine. “When people reach a point when they are in so much pain they just can't stand it anymore, it was like being drunk,” said Snyder, a professor of neurology at Brown University in Providence, R.I. “The ability to hold information was really impaired,” he said. This year's winners of the dubious distinction handed out Thursday at Harvard University for head-scratching scientific discoveries included a team of Japanese scientists who invented a fire alarm that smells like wasabi; a European mayor who solved his city's parking problems with a piece of heavy military equipment; a Norwegian researcher who explored the science behind sighing; and the numerous people throughout history whose mathematical calculations to predict the end of the world have fallen flat. The 21st annual awards sponsored by the Annals of Improbable Research were handed out by real Nobel laureates and featured the usual doses of silliness, including a mini-opera about the chemistry in a coffee shop and the ritual launching of paper airplanes. The point of Snyder's work was to determine the effects of pain on decision-making. Working with
full bladders is a “low cost, low risk” way of causing pain that can be resolved easily, simply by going to the bathroom. The research, done with scientists at Australian universities, was also fun. The group even crowned an unofficial withholding champion - the person who could go the longest before his bladder exploded. Australian researcher David Darby held out for three hours. Vilnius, Lithuania Mayor Arturas Zuokas won the Ig Nobel peace prize for his heavy-handed way of dealing with parking scofflaws. He crushed their cars with a military armored personnel carrier. “I just decided that it was time to teach bullies who had no respect for the rights of others a lesson that left an impression,” he said in an email. In a video posted on YouTube, Zuokas crushes a Mercedes-Benz blocking not just a bicycle lane, but also a pedestrian crossing, in Vilnius' picturesque Old Town. Zuokas was coy when asked whether the car-crushing was a stunt - the well-dressed owner did not appear to be too angry - but said the plan appears to have worked. The city has returned to what the mayor calls “more standard and boring” means of controlling parking scofflaws: issuing tickets and towing vehicles. But he warns he has the tank on standby. The chemistry prize went to Japanese researchers who invented a fire alarm that emits the pungent odor of wasabi, the sinus-clearing green paste served with sushi. “Wasabi odor is useful as a fire alarm to deaf people who failed to wake up with a conventional mode such as sound, vibration or flashing light,” said Makoto Imai, professor of psychiatry at Shiga
University of Medical Science. The key is allyl isothiocyanate, the compound in wasabi that gives out its distinctive smell and can be detected even during sleep. The team settled on wasabi after trying about 100 odors, including rotten eggs. Karl Teigen's research, which won him the psychology prize, perhaps best embodies the spirit of the Ig Nobels. His study on why people sigh has no practical applications as far as he can determine. He and his students decided to study sighing simply because they found no one else had. “People think that others' sighs chiefly express sadness and sorrow, but that their own sighs are more often due to resignation and giving up,” said Teigen, a psychology professor at the University of Oslo in Norway. “We studied the giving up aspect experimentally by giving people puzzles that looked simple, but they could not solve. And they sighed. We think they sighed because they had to give up a hypothesis, an idea, a hope, or an attempt - and perhaps be ready for a new one.'' Most winners were delighted to take home the prize. “It certainly caught me off guard,” said Snyder, the Brown professor. “But at heart I am a teacher, and I am concerned that scientific literacy in this country is on the decline. The Ig Nobels show that science isn't always dry and technical, and can be fun.'' Teigen played on the Ig Nobels' own catchphrase to describe his feelings. “Ig Nobel prizes are assumed to make people laugh and then think - and I would add: then sigh.” --Online: The Annals of Improbable Research, http://improbable.com

In Calif, wine grapes good but in short supply continued from page 14
While that could add up to a great vintage, some wines might be in short supply, especially lower-priced wines sold under store labels. “The issue there is that there might not be as much wine left over to make $3.99 bottles,” said Haas, past president of the Rhone Rangers Board of Directors. “There's always some left over that gets bought up cheap at the end. There may be less of that around.” Despite a reduction in quantity the prices of name brand bottles should remain stable, winemakers say, just as they are during gluts. Winemakers say that once prices are established on the market, it's hard to change with a fickle public. So 2011 is set to go down as the year in which California winemakers make less money than 2010, when the Golden State's wine sales reached $30 billion. It also will be known as a crazy weather year for growers _ or as the growers like to say “normal.” “You plan for normal, but you know that it's never going to be normal,” said David Beckstoffer, who farms 3,000 acres in Napa, Mendocino and Lake counties. The Napa Valley Grapegrowers' Association president said some yields are down as much as 50 percent, and his is coming in as much as 20 percent low, making it difficult to fulfill contract obligations. A late cold front in June stunted development along the coast and covered newly emerging Sierra foothill grapes in snow. An early winter-like storm last week threatens bunch rot on unripened clusters in some vineyards, especially those with white grapes still hanging, though the chardonnay season is winding down. In between growers enjoyed a mild summer that was ideal for grape development. The harvest of many reds, which often peaks in September, has not yet begun in some areas. If the
Page 27
WHAT’S HAPPENING’S TRI-CITY VOICE
forecast dry weather remains for a few weeks, growers say the recent rains will invigorate vines and help with the steady ripening. “I'm feeling significantly more positive about the vintage than I was six weeks ago, thanks largely to the nearly perfect ripening conditions we had through August and September,” Haas said. Growers are faring better than their colleagues in Oregon, where the coolest growing season in 50 years threatens to keep some vineyards from reaching high enough sugar levels. Assessing the overall California vintage in such an unpredictable year is a vineyard-by-vineyard process, says Jim Fiolek, executive director of the Santa Barbara County Vintners' Association, where growers scrambled to harvest thinskinned pinot noir grapes this week before rain could damage them. “Or in some areas, it's a row by row situation,” Fiolek said. “People are harvesting certain blocks and even certain rows two and three times because all of the fruit didn't ripen at the same time. It's a magnificent story of what makes Santa Barbara different.” The grape-growing valleys of Santa Barbara County are unique between Alaska and Tierra del Fuego in that they open directly to the Pacific Ocean, he said. The mild weather and cooling breezes allow the region to grow 60 varieties of grapes in the Santa Ynez Valley alone, but it also means the impacts of the weather affected everyone differently. “In terms of harvest yields, there will be some shortages because of the frost and because of the weather we had during bloom set,” he said. “There will be some shortages due to the rain in September, and some due to the rain we had in October. The thing is you can't cover the entire wine industry or region or even a vineyard sometimes with one description. That's what makes this so wonderful.”
New Haven School District board report SUBMITTED BY RICK LA PLANTE The Board of Education on October 4, received a presentation from Superintendent Kari McVeigh about the ongoing work to create a Union City Kids’ Zone. The product of discussions initiated by the Superintendent that led to a partnership involving the District and several other agencies and community organizations, the Kids’ Zone would provide cradle-to-career services for the District’s most vulnerable students and their families. Starting point for the effort would be the Decoto neighborhood. Preliminarily, goals are to see: New positive patterns of behavior incorporated in the culturally rich values, traditions and fabric of the community; Families set goal and priorities for college/career readiness; That all children have access to high-quality early education that supports healthy development across all domains (cognitive, physical, social/developmental) and prepares them for school success; Community social services integrated in a way that allows community members access to sufficient health and wellness services; All students in the Kids’ Zone achieve at high levels academically. Partners include the City of Union City, Union City Leisure Services, Kidango, Centro de Servicios, the Fremont Family Resource Center, Congregations Organizing for Renewal, the Tiburcio Vasquez Health Center, Safe Routes to School, the YMCA and Washington Hospital. Also during the meeting, the Board received the 2010-11 Student Achievement Report. The Division of Teaching & Learning reported that New Haven students are continuing to make progress academically, mirroring some of the trends seen at the state level. But an achievement gap still exists, with a continuing need for more focus on traditionally underserved groups. A strong basis for continued growth is in place and will be nurtured by continued work on key initiatives such as Writers’ Workshop, Targeted Leadership walkthroughs and learning sessions, a focus on equity and English Learners, the expansion of Critical Literacy to all elementary sites, Reading Apprenticeship at the middle schools and high schools, interventions for struggling students, and an ongoing examination of grading and assessments. The District also is focusing on recognizing “bright spots” that can be replicated elsewhere and is training staff in Human System Dynamics as a way to better recognize and approach key issues. Goals for 2011-12 are that, by spring 2012: 78 percent of students will be identified as proficient by English/language arts scores or reading assessments or 100 percent will meet reading growth targets. Students who start the year below grade level in reading will exceed their growth target by scoring 1.5 times the expected target. On behalf of Alvarado and Cesar Chavez middle schools, the Board also received a commendation from the Alameda County Board of Supervisors for “CPR7” cardio-pulmonary resuscitation training and recognized AMS student Wilson Hoang, who single-handedly taught CPR to nearly 100 people after receiving the CPR7 training last year.
