ry it out, “Just for the Health of it!” Seniors are invited to be active and healthy at the 12th Annual Health and Resource Faire for Seniors at the Silliman Activity Center in Newark on Tuesday, October 25. From 9 a.m. to noon, vendors will offer their expertise on Senior Programs and Services. Local vendors will check for blood pressure, cholesterol level, and give osteoporosis screenings. There will be free flu shots available for individuals on Medicare. Medicare patients must bring their Medicare card for verification. Those who are not on Medicare must pay a $25 fee for the flu shot. Pneumonia shots are recommended for people ages 65 and older and costs $55 a person. The faire first began 13 years ago in 1998. This year would have marked the 13th annual event, but due to the state budget cuts, the Newark Senior Center lost funding for the event last year and it was not held. Cheryl Galzec, a representative at the Newark Senior Center,

stated, “Because of Measure U being passed recently, we got our staff back this year and funding for the event and we are very excited.” Measure U is a five-year 3.5 percent utility tax that prevented cuts to essential public services, particularly to the City of Newark including the Silliman Center, and prevented closure of the center altogether. It was on the November 2010 election Ballot and was passed with 58 percent of approval votes. The health faire is very informative for seniors and encourages them to live a consistently healthy lifestyle. Over 80 vendors are expected to participate in the event. Free refreshments will be available to all attendees. For more information, contact the Senior Center at (510) 578-4840.

Is Diabetes Different for Men and Women? Free lecture focuses on what women can do to manage their diabetes
D
iabetes is a serious illness that affects more than 20 million people in the United States. More than 9 million American women have diabetes, and 3 million don’t know it! Statistics also reveal that 11.8 percent of adult American males have diabetes, while 10.8 percent of adult American women have the disease. Yet, the news is more ominous for women. For one thing, the outlook for women is more serious. Projections indicate that the number of women with diabetes will increase 220 percent by the year 2050, while the number of men with diabetes is expected to increase by 174 percent during that same time period. Some other serious facts include: • Women with diabetes are more likely to have a heart attack and have it at a younger age than men. • Some women get diabetes when they are pregnant. • Women who have diabetes are more likely to have a miscarriage or a baby with birth defects. • Women with diabetes, according to recent studies, are more likely to be poor, which makes it harder to manage the disease. • The most common causes of death for people with diabetes are heart attack or stroke. Diabetes is a disease that changes the way your body uses food. When you are healthy, the food you eat turns to sugar. The sugar then travels through the blood to all parts of the body.

type 2 diabetes, the body does not make enough insulin or use insulin well. Most people with diabetes have type 2. “Understanding your risk for diabetes is the first step in prevention,” says Reed. Ask yourself these questions and, if you answer yes to any of them, talk to your doctor about whether you need to be tested for diabetes: • Do you need to lose weight? • Do you get little or no exercise? * Do you have high blood pressure (130/80 or higher)? • Do you have a brother or sister with diabetes?
• Losing weight without trying • Having cuts or bruises that are slow to heal • Feeling tired all the time • Experiencing tingling or numbness in the hands or feet
• Do you have a parent with diabetes? • Are you a woman who had diabetes when you were pregnant, or have you had a baby who weighed more than 9 pounds at birth? • Are you African American, Native American, Hispanic or Asian American/Pacific Islander? “There are also warning signs that may indicate you have diabetes, and most people do not recognize these signs,” Reed continues. If you experience any of the following symptoms, you should discuss them with your physician: • Going to the bathroom frequently • Feeling hungry or thirsty all the time • Having blurred vision
with a plan for you. Be active at least 30 minutes a day on most days of the week. Exercise helps your body's insulin work better. It also lowers your blood sugar, blood pressure and cholesterol. November is Diabetes Awareness Month. In addition to the “Women and Diabetes” lecture, Washington Hospital will sponsor a free Diabetes Health Fair for the community on Saturday, November 19. The event will help to educate people about different aspects of diabetes care, including treatment and nutrition. Free screenings for glucose and cholesterol will be available. To register for the Diabetes Health Fair, visit www.whhs.com and click on Upcoming Health Seminars.
If you have diabetes there is good news! Diabetes can be controlled by maintaining a healthy diet and exercising, as well as using FDA-approved medicines, insulin and devices every day. There is no one diet for people with diabetes. Work with your health care team to come up
Vida Reed, RN, coordinator of the Washington Outpatient Diabetes Center, will talk about the steps women can take to lower their risk for diabetes at an upcoming Washington Women’s Center evening lecture. The free seminar will take place on Wednesday, November 2, at 7 p.m. in the Washington Women’s Center, located at 2500 Mowry Avenue (Washington West), Suite 145, in Fremont. To reserve your space, register online at www.whhs.com or call (800) 963-7070.
“Normally, insulin helps get sugar from the blood to the body's cells, where it is used for energy,” explains Vida Reed, RN, coordinator of the Diabetes Program at Washington Hospital. “When you have diabetes, your body has trouble making and/or using insulin. So, your body does not get the fuel it needs; and your blood sugar stays too high.” These topics and other related information will be the subject of a free evening lecture, “Women and Diabetes,” to be held on Wednesday, November 2 at 7 p.m. in the Washington Women’s Center, Washington West, 2500 Mowry Avenue, Suite 145, in Fremont. Reed, who is a certified diabetes educator, will be the speaker. To reserve your space, register online at www.whhs.com or call (800) 963-7070. There are two types of diabetes. In type 1, the body does not make any insulin. People with type1 diabetes must take insulin every day to stay alive. In

DIRECTOR RICHARD SANTOS SANTA CLARA VALLEY WATER DISTRICT On Sept. 16, the Santa Clara Valley Water District held a grand opening ceremony for the Alviso Educational Center. Located seven miles northwest of downtown San José, the center is a half-acre area built on property owned by the State Lands Commission that offers educational opportunities for visitors young and old. The water district first began exploring the building of an educational center in 2002 as an environmental enhancement opportunity with the Lower Guadalupe River Flood Protection Project (LGRP). The LGRP, constructed by the water district between April 2003 and December 2004, increased the river’s capacity to convey storm water runoff up to a 1 percent (100-year) flood event. In addition to improving flood protection, the project’s purpose included protecting endangered species, preserving fish and migratory bird habitat, and allowing for open-space recreation. As part of the LGRP project, staff
WHAT’S HAPPENING’S TRI-CITY VOICE
identified and presented to the Board several environmental enhancement opportunities, including developing the Alviso Educational Center. The water district board believes it's never too early for children to begin understanding and appreciating their local water resources. To help promote that awareness, the district offers a full range of educational programs for both teachers and students, including our new High School Youth Commission. The water district's award-winning school program reaches thousands of young people each year with educational, interactive lessons on every water topic imaginable. In addition to classroom presentations, students can visit our educational centers, tour a groundwater recharge facility or explore the plant and animal life in a creek. In keeping with their strong emphasis on the importance of education, the board approved the project in 2003, with the goal of highlighting the history of water in Alviso, including its close association with the Guadalupe River and South San Francisco Bay and its
link to recreation trails in the vicinity of the site. The center is one of three water district educational centers. The Morely Park Outdoor Classroom opened in 2000 and the Coyote Creek Outdoor Classroom opened in 2001. County schools can use these centers as tools in environmental education and historical interpretation. Throughout the Alviso Educational Center students and visitors will find educational stations on groundwater, weather, enviroscape, wetlands and Alviso history. As a lifelong Alviso resident, I am proud to see our story being shared with community. Water has always been integral to life in Alviso. From the history of our thriving port to devastating floods, water has and will continue to impact our lives. It’s my hope that you will come and visit the Alviso Educational Center and learn more about the rich history of this small community on the bay. As always, I am available for questions or comments as your District 3 representative for the northern areas of Sunnyvale and Santa Clara; Alviso; Milpitas; and the north San Jose and Berryessa communities. Feel free to contact me at (408) 234-7707.

While specific mythological explanations and significance may vary, Diwali is held to celebrate the triumph of good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance. Named after the Sanskrit word, Deepavali, meaning “row of lights,” Diwali is traditionally associated with the lighting of small lamps, or diyas. These diyas represent good omens as well as celebrate the various legends of Diwali. The significance of Diwali extends over many different legends and religions. Some celebrate it as the triumph of Lord Rama over the ten-headed demon Ravana. His celebratory coronation upon returning to his city, Ayodhya, is referred to as Diwali. In South India, Diwali is associated with the killing of the demon king Narakasura by Lord Krishna. Upon vanquishing the demon, Krishna proceeded to bathe in scented oils, a tradition of Diwali.

ilent films talking? What has happened? A musician and film maker Strephon Taylor has paired two impressionistic German silent horror classics with new musical soundtracks and - shudder to think - voices in place of title cards and sound effects. He did want to make sure that the sound would be authentic for the films so he engaged actors with German accents to do the voiceovers. These films will be shown at the Edison Theater, home of the Niles Essanay Silent Film Museum at 37417 Niles Blvd in Fremont, on Sunday, October 23 at a 4:00 p.m. matinee. $6 for museum members and $8 nonmembers. "Nosferatu" is the world's first vampire film, a classic German Expressionist film based on Bram Stoker's 1897 novel Dracula. Don't expect to see blood, gore or vampires that tween girls swoon over. Instead prepare for a psychological thriller starring German actor Max Schreck as Count Orlok, a decrepit creature with a bald-head, pointed ears, rat-like front teeth and elongated fingernails; a believable portrayal of living death. The second film of this double feature is "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari', considered one of the most influential German Expressionist films and greatest horror movies of the silent era. This movie is cited as having introduced the twist ending in cinema. The deranged Dr. Caligari and his faithful sleepwalking Cesare are connected to a series of murders in a German mountain village. Caligari introduces the main narrative using a
frame story in which most of the plot is presented as a flashback, as told by Francis. Strephon Taylor and his HobGoblin crew have finished their sophomore effort after last year’s “Nosferatu, A Symphony of Horrors”. The band has grown and learned a ton from the first release. This time they tackle the “The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.” The new soundtrack took almost exactly one year to complete and will be released as a “full sound” DVD and standalone CD on November Fire Recordings (www.novemberfire.com). “The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari” is a bit more "industrial" music style and you might find some heavy "trance" moments tucked inside as well. It was a natural progression from “Nosferatu” and a new challenge for HobGoblin. These films showing feature “full sound” meaning that it has a new soundtrack with all dialog and sound effects added, while the second version (available on the DVD that will be for sale at the event) are very rare German film prints with just the new soundtrack and title cards. The members of the band remain the same including members of Skinlab, Forbidden, Neurosis, Sacrilege BC, Claymation Horror Show, and Re:Ignition, all hailing from the San Francisco Bay Area. HobGoblin Saturday, Oct 23 4 p.m. Edison Theater, Niles Essanay Silent Film Museum (510) 494-1411 or (510) 796-1940 www.nilesfilmmuseum.org $6 for museum members $8 non-members.

Seattle ‘superhero’ dons mask to enter courtroom BY GENE JOHNSON ASSOCIATED PRESS SEATTLE (AP), A self-proclaimed superhero wore a charcoal-colored mask Thursday as he entered a Seattle courtroom where prosecutors said they hadn't yet decided whether to file charges against him in an alleged pepper spray attack. Phoenix Jones, whose real name is Benjamin John Francis Fodor, was arrested early Sunday after police say he sprayed four people who had left a downtown nightclub. Fodor said he was trying to break up a fight when he was attacked; the club-goers insisted to police they hadn't been fighting. During the hearing Thursday, a court officer asked Jones to remove his mask and he complied. He also wore a superhero uniform under a button-down shirt. Prosecutors told a judge they would need more time to decide whether to file charges in the case. Jones put his mask back on after the hearing to speak with reporters - then dramatically removed it again to reveal his true identity. He said he's a father and a brother, and just like anyone else in Seattle. “I decided to make a difference and stop crime in my neighborhood,” he said. Police spokesman Mark Jamieson reiterated Thursday that intervening in potentially dangerous situations should be left to professional officers. “If people want to dress up and walk around, knock yourself out,” he said. “Our concern is when you insert yourself into these situations without knowing the facts, it's just not a smart thing to do.”

Family lost in Mass. corn maze call 911 for help AP WIRE SERVICE DANVERS, Mass. (AP), Oct 11 - Authorities say a family that got lost in a seven-acre corn maze in Danvers whipped out a cell phone and called police for help, apparently taking advantage of the department's motto that says “We Want To Be Bothered.” The maze at Connors Farm depicts a headless horseman with words “Salem village” and “Danvers, Ma.” The tourist attraction can take up to an hour to navigate. A police officer entered the maze with a farm manager to search for the disoriented father, mother and two children. The family did not realize that they had almost made their way out and were almost 25 feet from the street. Farm owner Bob Connors tells the Boston Globe (http://bo.st/p7Xmzr) that they designed the maze so that people get lost in the long corn stalks.

through grade 12 students across the nation the opportunity to create and submit art to local PTAs in six areas: dance choreography, film production, literature, musical composition, photography, MARGARET TALT FREMONT CULTURAL ARTS COUNCIL “Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.” Pablo Picasso Schools – much is said about what is bad in our schools and very little is said about what is good. This article will focus on some of the good things happening in Fremont Schools in the area of cultural arts. Opportunities for exposure to drama, music, dance, and drawing are important additions to academic studies. Such exposure prepares young people to make choices in their adult lives that will lead to satisfying life styles. Because of the current economic situation, public schools have cut back in some areas, and one such area is the cultural arts. Still, the Fremont Unified School District (FUSD) is managing to offer some classes in art, drama, and music. Assistant District Superintendent Deborah Sims says, “Although there are arts education programs in many of the Fremont schools, the district would like to expand these opportunities to all schools.” While the primary responsibility of the public school system is teaching the basic academic subjects, there is a need to expand children’s horizons in ways that may not be available at home, especially with the diverse population in Fremont. Luckily, FUSD can and does draw on support from the community, and various entities here are stepping in to help. One such group is Music for Minors II (MFMII), which is a 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization keeping music in children's classrooms and lives since
1988 due to budgetary cutbacks in arts education. MFMII recruits, professionally trains, and supports community volunteers who weekly become music docents that nurture the love and literacy of music in children from pre-school through sixth grade. Volunteers include
parents, current and retired teachers, seniors, college students, businessmen and women, and professional musicians who value the need for music for children's healthy development and academic success. MFMII also sponsors community concerts with recording artists who specialize in quality children's music that uplifts, unites, and inspires audiences of all ages. For further information visit www.musicforminors2.org or call (510) 733-1189. Another group is the Fremont Symphony Orchestra. Co-sponsored by the Symphony Guild, the Fremont Cultural Arts Council, and a number of commu-
nity organizations and companies, each year the Symphony Orchestra presents a free program of classical music at Ohlone College for students in the TriCity area. Children have the opportunity to create short musical compositions, and the best ones are chosen by the Symphony, given an orchestral arrangement, and presented as part of the program. In addition to music, drawing also receives attention. The Fremont Cultural Arts Council has cooperated with the Parent-Teachers Association in recent years to supplement what teachers are able to do. This cooperation has provided outstanding artists to present assembly programs that introduce children to the joy of creating art. To learn more visit FCAC@linkville.com. Additionally, the Fremont PTA Council sponsors a program called “Reflections,” which provides opportunities for students to engage in art and to receive recognition for what they create. This program is designed to enhance and supplement what teachers are able to offer in their classes. For over 40 years this program has given preschool
and the visual arts. For more information visit www.fremontcouncilpta.org. The Fremont Education Foundation (FEF) sponsors after-school bands on every elementary school campus in the Fremont Unified School District, directly benefiting about 1,000 students. FEF provides 25 weeks of both beginning and intermediate instruction on woodwind, brass, and percussion instruments for 4th-6th graders, and has been doing so for twelve years. The registration fee is minimal as the After School Band program is funded by donations from present and past band families, and members and businesses in the local community. FEF does not receive funding from the school district, nor from state or federal government sources. Every year the bands participate in a concert at a local high school, which gives children the opportunity to perform for an audience and to hear other musicians at varying levels of development. In addition, the bands perform at their schools, various community events, the Fremont Senior Center, and march in various local parades, including the Fourth of July parade. To learn more visit www.fremont-education.org. In this increasingly highly technical world, today’s young people need the balance offered by the cultural arts more than ever. Fortunately, Fremont has citizens who recognize and voluntarily work to fill that need.

Fremont Police Log SUBMITTED BY DET. WILLIAM VETERAN, FREMONT PD October 18 A residential burglary occurred at 5500 block of Andromeda Circle. The victim was gone from the home between 8 a.m. and noon when the crime occurred. Entry was made via a pried kitchen window. Loss was jewelry, a laptop and a WII game system. A residential burglary occurred at 3800 Riverbend Terrace. The point of entry was unknown, with the loss being jewelry.
Police Public Parking Lot Closure Due to work activities related to the Seismic Retrofit of the Police Department, the public parking lot will not be accessible by any non-handicapped vehicles from 7:00 a.m. until 4:30 pm, October 24 28, 2011. Vehicle traffic will be directed to park in the lot near the basketball courts (east side of the police building,) and the public will be able to access the public lobby via the stairs off of Stevenson Boulevard. Signage and a security guard will guide those who wish enter the lobby down the access road, along Stevenson Boulevard, and ultimately to the front of the building. The lot will re-open at 4:30 PM each day, allowing normal access to the lobby / emergency phone. Access for disabled persons will be facilitated throughout the closure.
A residential burglary occurred at 5400 block of Butano Park Drive. The crime occurred between 11:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. when the resident was gone. Entry was made via an unlocked rear slider. Loss was jewelry and a Wii gaming system. An 83 year-old victim was scammed out of $5,000 in a phone scam. The suspect phoned the elderly woman claiming to be her grandson. He said he had been arrested for DUI while traveling out of the country and needed bail money. The concerned grandmother rushed to Western Union and sent the money.
Suspicious Person SUBMITTED BY OFFICER TRISH YOUNG-ORTH, MILPITAS PD Recently a suspicious person, described as a white male, approximately 30 years old and about 6 feet tall and 160 lbs., knocked on the door of a home on Costigan Circle. He identified himself as a Brinks Alarm Representative. The person did not wear a uniform, did not have any visible identification, and carried a Brinks Alarm sign. The person contacted the homeowner and asked if they had an alarm system. By the individual asking the question, he was able to determine a key piece of security information and conclude how difficult it might be to burglarize the home. It is not uncommon for residential burglars to case potential victim’s homes prior to striking. Burglars and other criminals may use a variety of techniques and ruses to obtain valuable information they can use to make it easier to burglarize a home or commit other crimes. Criminals may pose as salespersons, utility employees, contractors, or any number of other identities. The Brinks Alarm Company was acquired by ADT in 2010. An ADT spokesperson said that ADT no longer operates the Brinks brand, nor does it conduct door-to-door solicitation for sales purposes. An ADT employee would wear a distinctive ADT uniform with an ADT logo, and would carry an ADT identification card. All residents should be wary of door-to-door solicitors and should not provide personal or security related information to a stranger at their door. Ask salespersons and peddlers for credentials, employer identification, and City of Milpitas business license. All solicitors within the City of Milpitas are required to obtain and possess a business license from the City while conducting business. Help keep the community safe by immediately reporting any suspicious persons, vehicles, or activity. Anyone with any information regarding this investigation or other similar incidents is encouraged to call the Milpitas Police Department at (408) 586-2400. Information can also be given anonymously by calling (408) 586-2500 or via the Milpitas Police Department website at: http://www.ci.milpitas.ca.gov/government/police/crime_tip.asp

Woof-Fest October is National Pet Adoption Month. The staff at the Tri-City Animal Shelter will celebrate this event by offering half-price dog adoptions for one week, October 22 - 29th. During this week only, our adoptions fees will be $80, not including applicable city license fees. According to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, between five and seven million companion animals enter shelters every year. Animals are admitted to a shelter because they are lost, abandoned, or picked up by animal control. Without people willing to take lost or abandoned animals into their homes, many of the wonderful dogs we see on a daily basis wouldn’t be here. Dogs of all ages and breeds are available through adoption at our shelter. Most people want to adopt puppies, but older pets should not be discounted. They are just as loving and can be a wonderful addition to a family. Since older animals are more quiet and most likely already trained, bringing an older pet into the home might make for an easier transition for the whole family. If you are considering adopting a dog in the near future, please help us celebrate National Pet Adoption Month during our “Woof-Fest” event by saving a life. To view some of the available pets go to www.petharbor.com or visit the Tri-City Animal Shelter.

SUBMITTED BY OFFICE OF THE STATE ATTORNEY GENERAL On October 14, 2011, Attorney General Kamala D. Harris announced the arrests of 104 individuals, the majority of whom are gang members with prior felony convictions, after an 18month investigation by California Department of Justice agents. The California DOJ agents, along with 150 law enforcement personnel from local, state and federal agencies, made the arrests over the preceding three days for crimes that include the sale of drugs, firearms and stolen property and vehicles in Alameda, Santa Clara, San Benito, Monterey and Santa Cruz counties. “After noticing an increase in crime, Gilroy officials asked for help to dismantle a gang network that had set up shop in their town,” Harris said. “DOJ agents are uniquely suited to perform the undercover work vital to building

complex, multi-jurisdictional cases like this one. This community is safer because of their hard work and their partnerships with federal and local law enforcement.” As part of the operation, undercover Department of Justice agents purchased drugs, firearms and stolen property and vehicles from gang members and others with prior felony convictions. To date, the operation has seized more than three pounds of methamphetamine, 28.5 grams of heroin, four ounces of cocaine, 34 ecstasy tablets, 10 oxycontin pills, 44 firearms, 81 stolen vehicles and stolen property. State charges include auto theft, possession of stolen property, gun charges, burglary, sales of narcotics (heroin, cocaine, marijuana, ecstasy) and gang enhancements. Some suspects are also being arrested on federal indictments. Earlier this year, Harris announced the break-up of several
gangs in the Central Valley, including the arrest of 101 leaders and members of two transnational gangs operating violent criminal enterprises in Madera, Los Banos, Livingston, Merced, Atwater and Dos Palos. Nuestra Familia is one of seven prison gangs in the state. Through top-down leadership, Nuestra Familia controls illegal activities inside several prisons, as well as most of the Nortenos gangs who operate in central California - from Yuba City to Bakersfield and from Salinas to the Sierra foothills. Through links to drug trafficking organizations in Mexico, these gangs move drugs, guns and human beings across the border and into communities throughout California. The California Department of Justice, Unified Narcotic Enforcement Team (UNET) and the San Jose Regional Office were the lead investigative agencies and were supported by the Gilroy Police Department, California Highway Patrol, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, the Santa Clara District Attorney's Office and the United States Attorney's Office - Northern District.

AP WIRE SERVICE WASHINGTON (AP), Oct 11 - Senate Republicans voted Tuesday night to kill the jobs package President Barack Obama had spent weeks campaigning for across the country, a stinging loss at the hands of lawmakers opposed to stimulus-style spending and a tax increase on the very wealthy. The $447 billion plan died on a 50-49 tally that garnered a majority of the 100-member Senate but fell well short of the 60 votes needed to keep the bill alive. The tally had been 51-48, but Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid switched his vote to “nay” so that he could force a future revote. The demise of Obama's jobs package was expected, despite his campaign-style efforts to swing the public behind it. The White House and leaders in Congress were already moving

on to alternative ways to address the nation's painful 9.1 percent unemployment, including breaking the legislation into smaller, more digestible pieces and approving long-stalled trade bills. “Tonight's vote is by no means the end of this fight,” Obama said in a statement after the vote. “Because with so many Americans out of work and so many families struggling, we can't take ‘no’ for an answer.” The White House appears most confident that it will be able to continue a 2-percentage-point Social Security payroll tax cut through 2012 and to extend emergency unemployment benefits to millions of people - if only because, in the White House view, Republicans won't want to accept the political harm of letting those provisions expire. White House officials are also hopeful of ultimately gar-
nering votes for the approval of infrastructure spending and tax credits for businesses that hire unemployed veterans. “Now it's time for both parties to work together and find common ground on removing government barriers to privatesector job growth,” House Speaker John Boehner said after the vote. Democratic Sens. Ben Nelson of Nebraska and Jon Tester of Montana - both up for reelection next year in states where Obama figures to lose broke with their party on Tuesday night's vote. Every Republican present opposed the plan. Earlier in the day, Obama capped his weekslong campaign for the measure in an appearance typical of the effort - a tough-talking speech in Pennsylvania, a swing state crucial to his re-election. Like earlier appearances, it seemed aimed more at rallying his core politi-
cal supporters heading into the election than changing minds on Capitol Hill. “Any senator who votes no should have to look you in the eye and tell you what exactly they're opposed to,” Obama said to a labor union audience in Pittsburgh. “I think they'll have a hard time explaining why they voted no on this bill other than the fact that I proposed it.” Obama's plan would combine Social Security payroll tax cuts for workers and businesses and other tax relief totaling about $270 billion with $175 billion in new spending on roads, school repairs and other infrastructure, as well as unemployment assistance and help to local governments to avoid layoffs of teachers, firefighters and police officers. Obama said that the plan more than half the size of his 2009 economic stimulus meas-

ure - would be an insurance policy against a double-dip recession and that continued economic intervention was essential given slower-thanhoped job growth. “Right now, our economy needs a jolt,” Obama said. “Right now.” Unlike the 2009 legislation, the current plan would be paid for with a 5.6 percent surcharge on income exceeding $1 million. That would be expected to raise about $450 billion over the coming decade. That millionaires proposal would hit about 392,000 households, according to an analysis by the Tax Policy Center, a Washington think tank. In 2013, the first year the tax would take effect, those wealthy households would see their taxes increase by an average of $110,500, according to the analysis. “Democrats' sole proposal is to keep doing what hasn't

worked - along with a massive tax hike that we know won't create jobs,'' Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell said Tuesday, saying there are 1.5 million fewer jobs than when Obama's 2009 economic package became law. ``Why on earth would you support an approach that we already know won't work?'' McConnell said. Just before the vote on Obama's jobs plan, the Senate passed legislation aimed at punishing China for keeping its currency undervalued against the dollar. Lower-valued currency helps Chinese exports at the expense, bill supporters say, of American jobs.

Next, both the House and Senate will turn Wednesday to approving trade agreements with Colombia, Panama and South Korea that could create tens of thousands of jobs, one of the few areas of agreement between Republicans and the administration on boosting the economy. In coming weeks and months, Democrats promise further votes on jobs. But it remains to be seen how much of that effort will involve more campaign-stoked battles with Republicans and how much will include seeking common ground in hopes of passing legislation.

Leaders of the Republicancontrolled House of Representatives have signaled they support tax cuts for small businesses and may be willing to accept an extension of cuts to the Social Security payroll tax. But stimulus-style spending is a nonstarter with House Republicans. Tuesday's vote played out as disaffected crowds continued to occupy Wall Street, a square in Washington and parts of other cities around the country in protest of income inequality and related issues. Associated Press writers Darlene Superville in Pittsburgh and Erica Werner in Washington contributed to this report.
Re/Max Accord opens new branch SUBMITTED BY ELISE WATKINS RE/MAX Accord launched another preferred lending partnership recently in its Fremont office with RPM in-house loan agent, John Dutra. Re/MAX Accord Fremont is now one of six RE/MAX Accord branch partnerships with an in-house RPM loan agent. Other branch locations with a preferred lender include Pleasanton, Livermore, Lafayette and two in Danville. Other RE/MAX Accord locations which RPM will have an in-house loan agent placed in soon include Montclair, Castro Valley and San Ramon. RE/MAX Accord selected Dutra as the preferred lender for the new Fremont office based on his experience working in the mortgage industry for over 20 years. Dutra was pleased to be chosen for the position and made the move to RPM Mortgage based on the high level of support that the company is able to offer him as a loan agent. “I chose to work with RPM Mortgage because they are well-respected in the mortgage industry,” said Dutra. “They provide their agents with the best tools available to serve both their clients and the community with crucial information to make smart and educated home purchases.” Dutra serves on the Economic Development Advisory Commission for Fremont and the Board of the Roman Reed Foundation. John also works with his mother’s charity, the One Child Foundation and is a proud member of the Niles Rotary in Fremont.
BY PALLAVI GOGOI AP BUSINESS WRITER NEW YORK (AP), Oct 18 - Higher bank fees are here to stay. The latest third-quarter earnings reports from this week confirm that banks are struggling to make money the oldfashioned way, by lending money to consumers and businesses. The main reason: interest rates are at historic lows. That makes it harder for banks to charge high rates on loans. New rules have also curtailed various kinds of traditional fees, costing banks billions in lost income. These fees include overdraft charges on checking accounts and fees for making late payments on credit cards. So, many of them are making up the difference with fees that aren't covered by the new rules. Bank of America Corp., which reported results Tuesday, has set off a firestorm over its plan to charge customers $5 a month for using their debit cards. Even President Barack Obama has taken the bank to task. continued on page 26

TOPS seeded #10 in State Cup SUBMITTED BY CINDY BECK
T
he Union City Premier TOPS, a U-10 girls Division I soccer team, began playing the Preliminary rounds for the State Cup in August. State Cup competition showcases the top 48 Premier Girls U-10 Teams of Northern California. TOPS played their first game against Mustang Crunch which ended in a tie 11. The next game was against the #6 ranked Girls U-10 Team in Nor Cal, Davis Legacy, which the Tops defeated 2-0. TOPS went on to capture the last win against Mill Valley 3-0 and advanced them to the second round of the State Cup. This placed them in the top 24 of the Premier Girls U-10 teams of Northern California. A remarkable accomplishment and exciting time for the UC Premier Tops! They will be playing the second round of the State Cup November 5 and 6 in Sacramento, CA. The TOPS played as a team and showed
their soccer skills throughout each game. Thanks to the excellent defense of Logan Bell, Kyanna Cruz, Jordan Hong, Anmol Gill, and Alex Carpio, they only gave up one goal in all three games and defended the ball flawlessly. The offensive power of Natalia Bartolome, Jasmine Barbosa, Dawson Bell, Andrea Dan, and Jessica McNair showcased excellent soccer skills and drove in six goals in the preliminary rounds for the State Cup. TOPS teamwork and passion for soccer has been the result of efforts by Coach Rob Hernandez and Assistant Coach Lindsey Hamilton. Good luck to the Tops as they compete in the second round of the State Cup! TOPS conducts ongoing tryouts during its practices on a drop-in basis. Please call and arrange a time to meet the coaches, team, and join the practice to get a first-hand look at the level of play. Contact Cindy Beck (408) 2189596 to arrange a time to come out!

On Tuesday, Consumers Union became the latest to express outrage. The group urged customers to switch to other banks or credit unions if big banks refuse to drop the fees. “This debit card fee just adds insult to injury,” Norma Garcia, director of Consumers Union's financial services program, said. “It's unfair for the banks to stick consumers with a monthly fee just to use their own money.” Making money in the traditional way is becoming tougher for banks. In an effort to make up lost revenue, banks are rolling out new fees across the board: - Citi will charge $20 a month starting in December to some customers who don't keep
a balance of $15,000 or more in their combined checking, savings and investment accounts or loan balances - Wells Fargo & Co. started testing a $3 monthly fee for debit cards Friday in New Mexico, Nevada, Oregon, Washington and Georgia - JPMorgan Chase & Co. tested a $3 monthly debit card fee in February in Wisconsin and Georgia - SunTrust Banks Inc. of Georgia introduced a $5 debit card fee for customers with basic checking accounts in June, and - Regions Financial Corp. of Alabama introduced a $4 fee for debit cards in October. The fees have become a flashpoint of anger and frustra-
tion among the growing numbers of anti-Wall Street protestors. They come in the midst of a tough economic climate where millions of people are unemployed. Some say the fees are a callous response by banks that were bailed out during the financial crisis. On Monday, activists gathered in Burnside Park in downtown Providence, R.I. called on residents to close their accounts at Bank of America. They accused the bank of “immoral” banking practices. “They're cheating the American people,” said Patricia Phelan, 28, of Providence, who closed her two Bank of America accounts. “They're sneaking fees in.” Banks say the latest round of fees was triggered by a new federal law championed by Senator Dick Durbin of Illinois. The law caps the amount banks can charge merchants for debit card usage at about 24 cents per transaction, down from an average of 44 cents. The rule went into effect Oct. 1 and will whittle down
revenue even further starting in the fourth quarter of this year. JPMorgan said it would lose $300 million each quarter in income, Wells Fargo warned it would lose $250 million a quarter. “It's a significant loss in revenue and income and banks have to recoup that somewhere,” said Ron Shevlin, senior analyst at research firm Aite Group. The results this week also reflect the strain of operating under the new rules in a slowing economic environment. On Tuesday, Bank of America's $6.2 billion earnings in the third quarter came from accounting gains and the sale of a stake in a Chinese bank, but its revenue and income was lower in almost all its business lines credit cards, real estate and investment banking businesses. On Monday Wells Fargo said its income from fees and charges plunged 7 percent in the third quarter, largely due to new regulations that limit overdraft fees and make it harder to
October 21, 2011
raise interest rates on credit cards. Citigroup Inc.'s revenue dropped 9 percent from its North American consumer business because of fee curbs from new regulations. “It's a tough, tough environment to turn a profit,” said Paul Miller, bank analyst at FBR Capital Markets. Nancy Bush, banking analyst at NAB Research, says the fees may have gone too far and are hurting the banks’ public image. After all, most large banks have already eliminated free checking accounts and instituted fees for everything from bank statements to using tellers. “Banks have been bludgeoning their customers in the past year with fee after fee, only adding to a tough environment,” said Bush, who is also a contributing editor at SNL Financial. “It's time for banks to reward customers a little bit and send a message that they realize times are tough.” Associated Press Writer Erika Niedowski contributed to this report from Providence, R.I.
Morse code club preserves old way kind of talking BY TIM O’NEIL ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH FERGUSON, Mo. (AP), Oct 14 - Staccato clicks tapped from an old brass gadget. Derek Cohn, his ear fixed upon the mysterious rhythm, jotted letters onto paper. From Bloomington, Ill., came the weather report: “Light breeze and perfect.” It was a speedy response to a routine question, compliments of a 167-year-old form of electronic communication. There are many easier ways to be informed but none as satisfying to the small band who gather to
practice the dots and dashes of Samuel B. Morse's code. Skyping? Twittering? “What skills do those take?” asked Lou Axeman, another member of the local Morse Telegraph Club, Ollie Blackburn chapter. On Saturdays, club members wire up their vintage telegraph equipment in the former Wabash Railroad station in downtown Ferguson, now home to a restaurant called the Whistle Stop. They tap their messages to fellow devotees in other cities. Responses rattle from the receiving device, known as a sounder.
Restaurant customers are curious and perplexed. Cohn and Axeman actually know what the clicking means. “It's a simple, durable form of communication - texting a century before cellphones,” said Cohn, 49, a thoroughly modern IT project manager by workday. “We're trying to preserve the art form.” The local club numbers 10 or so active practitioners, with an additional 1,120 members across North America. A diminishing number were railroad telegraphers long ago. Most of the rest are amateur (Ham) radio operators who
learned code for their hobby and were drawn to original land-line telegraphy. (Radio and railroad Morse codes are slightly different.) Cohn, of Clayton, was trained by the chapter's namesake, Ollie Blackburn, who died in 2007 at age 106. Blackburn once was a telegrapher for the Wabash in the Ferguson station. He was 92 when Cohn became his pupil. Morse developed his electric telegraph system and a language of dots and dashes two decades before the Civil War. His first message clattered across a wire from Baltimore to Washington
on May 24, 1844, with these words: “What hath God wrought?” It electrified America. Literally. Railroads quickly put Morse's idea to widespread use. A transcontinental wire connected California to the East in 1861. President Abraham Lincoln spent many worried hours in the military telegraph office in Washington. America and England were linked reliably by Atlantic undersea cable in 1866. The system is simple enough. A sending device, or key, is connected by wire to a sounder. Touching the key completes the circuit and sends an electric pulse
October 21, 2011
to the sounder, consisting of an electromagnet and lever that ``click'' when activated. Morse's code assigns to each letter of the alphabet a different sequence of electric pulses. A quick pulse is a dot, a slightly longer one is a dash. Thus, an “a” is dot-dash, an “e” a dot, a “v” is dot-dot-dot-dash. Cohn said he needed about six months to master the code, followed by another half-year to consider himself skilled. Judging from a recent demonstration, he's got it down. The rigging at Ferguson sta-

tion is a mix of old and new. The club communicates with far-flung friends over the Internet. A USB cable runs from a laptop to the century-old telegraph equipment. The uninitiated can read the laptop screen as special software translates dots and dashes into text. Club members rarely bother to look. Recently, they traded messages with telegraphers in Kansas, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan and New York. The cheery Bloomington weather report was from Bill Dunbar, 86, a former railroad
telegrapher. Dunbar tapped a postscript about his early career: “Most days we could not wait to get to work.” Club member Truman Gamble of St. Peters learned code in 1952 at the old Railway Communication School, 4509 Delmar Boulevard. After three months of concentrated learning, Gamble went to work in Indiana for a railroad, sending and receiving train orders, instructions to conductors and daily reports from superintendents. It was swan-song time for railroad telegraphy, overtaken
by teletype machines, centralized track signaling and other advances. “Automation got me,” said Gamble, who moved to the auto business. Now 78, Gamble meets with the club for the nostalgic joy of it. “Morse code takes me back to the days when I was young and healthy,” he said. At the Ferguson station, club members display some of their collections of old equipment. Cohn's includes a “press set,” a portable combination of key and sounder that newspaper reporters used a century
ago. They'd connect the sets to special wires at ballparks, courthouses and telegraph offices to file stories. Charlie Stark, owner of the Whistle Stop restaurant, said the club sessions are good for business. Customers linger to watch, listen and eat. “Most people don't know much of anything about Morse code,” said Stark. “This lets them learn something new and different. New for them, anyway.” Information from: St. Louis Post-Dispatch, http://www.stltoday.com
IRS hits Oakland pot shop with $2.4M tax bill LISA LEFF ASSOCIATED PRESS SAN FRANCISCO (AP), - The federal government has found a new weapon in its war on marijuana - the tax man. A San Francisco Bay area medical marijuana dispensary that promotes itself as the world's largest has been hit with a $2.4 million tax bill following an audit by the Internal Revenue Service, the dispensary founder said Tuesday. The back taxes, penalties and interest levied against Harborside Health Center came after the IRS examined its returns for 2007 and 2008 and determined a 1982 tax code prohibiting cost deductions for businesses that traffic in illegal drugs applies to the dispensary. Harborside is a spa-like fixture on Oakland's waterfront with 94,114 registered customers and 84 full-time employees that offers an average of 30 varieties of medical marijuana every day and has $22 million in annual sales. “What kind of drug trafficking or-
ganization actually files a tax return? None of them do,'' said Harborside CEO Steve DeAngelo, who gave his auditor a personal tour of his posh apothecary. “The very fact that we filed a tax return and told the IRS all the details of what we are doing proves we are not a drug trafficking organization.'' The IRS said the agency does not comment on individual audits. DeAngelo, the subject of an upcoming Discovery Channel reality show, said the write-offs disallowed by the IRS included standard operating costs such as rent, payroll, employee health insurance and licensing fees. Government auditors did not dispute, however, that Harborside had properly deducted its biggest expense the millions of dollars it spent buying pot to sell to people who use it under California's medical marijuana law. San Francisco tax attorney Henry Wykowski, who represents DeAngelo, said a 2007 case involving another California dispensary established that the cost of goods sold was a legitimate ex-
pense for businesses the IRS otherwise considers illegitimate. “It goes all the way back to Prohibition,” Wykowski explained. ``They expect even businesses operating illegally to file tax returns, so they still have to give them their business deductions, and a cost of goods sold is the primary deduction that any business would have.” DeAngelo has until Dec. 22 to contest the audit in tax court. The IRS has told him it is now reviewing Harborside's returns for 2009 and 2010. Meanwhile, a handful of state officials have written House Speaker John Boehner, a Republican, and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, a Democrat, on behalf of DeAngelo, asking the two lawmakers to exempt ``legally operating cannabis businesses'' from the tax code section for drug traffickers. DeAngelo said he does not have the $2.4 million the IRS wants. Like all legal medical marijuana dispensaries in California, Harborside operates as a nonprofit corporation while paying state sales taxes and a 5 percent local tax to
Oakland - for a total of $3.1 million this year, he said. “We would be happy to pay taxes like every other business does,” he said. “No business, including Harborside, could survive if it's taxed on its gross revenue. All we want is to be treated like every other business in America.” Wykowski said he represents at least two dozen other California and Colorado pot dispensaries dealing with IRS audits. Some have persuaded auditors to accept deductions for auxiliary services such as on-site yoga classes, the time employees spend counseling customers as opposed to preparing marijuana, and quality testing. Others such as Harborside have been less successful. “What the taxing authorities are losing sight of is if you tax these places out of business and make it so they can't compete, all it is going to do is boost underground sales,” he said. “The guys on the street aren't paying their employees and if they are, they certainly aren't withholding taxes.”
