Election numbers change
Unexplained council
discrepancy
Tomorrow:
Mostly cloudy
Allman pulls ahead
in Sheriff’s race
No plea
yet in
shooting
Bullet removed
from victim’s head

Whetzel
Metcalf
Questions remain
about why fewer
votes now reported
By KATIE MINTZ
The Daily Journal
Three candidates may be in
a close race for a third and
final seat on the Ukiah City
Council, according to unofficial election results released
by the Mendocino County
Elections
Office
late
Wednesday morning.
There appears to be confusion over two sets of numbers
in the Ukiah City Council
race. One set would give the
third seat to Phil Baldwin,
while another set of numbers
would indicate a three-way
race between Baldwin, Mike
Whetzel and Jeanne Metcalf.
While John McCowen and
Benj Thomas remained the
top two vote getters by a wide
margin, the latest - but not
necessarily accurate - results
showed incumbent Baldwin
and challenger Whetzel tied at
536 votes apiece in the race
for the last open seat on the
council. Challenger Metcalf
was just votes behind at 534.
In the latest results, however, there is an actual decrease
in all votes cast in the race
from those reported early
Wednesday morning. That
discrepancy is still unresolved.
At approximately 12:30
a.m. election night, the first
set of results in which all 36
Ukiah precincts had reported
was released, and at that time,
4,710 votes had allegedly
been counted. But Wednesday
afternoon, the total vote count
had dipped more than 1,000
Howard Raff, the Arizona
man who is charged with
attempted murder in the
shooting of Ukiah resident
Virginia Larkin, did not enter
a plea at his arraignment but
did declare his innocence,
Wednesday.
“I’d rather plead not guilty
right now,” Raff was overheard to say to Public
Defender Steve Jackson. “I’m
not guilty.”
Meanwhile the woman he
is accused of shooting
remains in critical condition,
although doctors were able to
remove a bullet from her
head.
Jackson asked that Raff’s
case be delayed two weeks
Baldwin
votes to 3,563, according to
results released by the
Elections Office.
Each of the six candidates
lost about 200 votes in the
change.
Elections Officials said
Wednesday morning before
leaving the office after a full
night of processing ballots
that the discrepancy would be
looked into today.
Assessor-Clerk-Recorder
Marsha Wharff added that
some absentee and provisional ballots left at polling places
had yet to be counted and
were not reflected in the unofficial results.
Baldwin,
who
had
appeared to have pulled ahead
of the pack early Wednesday
morning, would not comment
on the most recent set of
results.
“I expected the race to be
very close and I’m not surprised that it’s going to come
down to a couple days of
counting absentee ballots,”
Whetzel said.
“I’m just waiting to see
what happens,” Metcalf said.
“I hope they make a speedy
count so that we can settle it,
because it’s so close.”
Candidate
James
Mulheren, who rounded out
the pack with 4 9 6 votes in
the latest unofficial election
results, is only 40 votes
behind the others but is not
expecting to be a player in the
race for the final seat.
“I think I’ve been behind
from the start so I would be
surprised if it came back and I
ended up being the thirdhighest vote getter,” he said.

The County Clerk staff went home Wednesday morning leaving questions about
Tuesday’s election count.
Broin still optimistic
By BEN BROWN
The Daily Journal
With 100 percent of
precincts reporting, Lt. Tom
Allman is the current frontrunner in the Mendocino
County Sheriff’s race,
according to Wednesday’s
unofficial count.
As of 11:18 a.m. Allman
had 53.49 percent of the
vote to Acting Sheriff
Broin
Kevin Broin’s 46.35 percent.
“We feel good about the campaign,” Allman
said during an interview Tuesday.
“There are a lot of votes left to count,”
Broin said.
He noted that there are a significant number
of absentee ballots left to count before the final
results for the election are in. Broin said he did
well among absentee voters in the primary.
The race has been hard-fought between
Allman and Broin. In June’s primary the two
finished less than 1 percent apart.
At press time Tuesday night it looked like
the general election would have a similarly
close finish with Allman holding a slim lead
with 88 percent of the precincts counted.
Allman had a significant lead over Broin
early on, leading him at
the polls by close to five
percent. Allman’s lead
shrank leading up to midnight but grew again
throughout Wednesday
morning as more ballots
were counted.
If Allman is named the
winner in the Sheriff’s
race, it is likely that Broin
would return to his former
Allman
position as captain.
Broin was appointed
Sheriff by the Board of Supervisors following
the retirement of former Sheriff Tony Craver in
December of 2005.
Asked if he would stay with the Sheriff’s
office if he does not win the election, Broin
said that he would wait until a final determination was made before making any further decisions.
“I don’t want to close any doors,” he said.
Further updates are expected Thursday as
the Mendocino County Clerk’s Office counts
more ballots.
It is not known when the clerk’s office will
release the official election results.

Wharff: DA race sealing delayed election night count
By KATIE MINTZ
The Daily Journal
On Wednesday, unofficial
results for the Nov. 7 general
election showed a 38.92 percent voter turnout in
Mendocino County, however,
Assessor-Clerk-Recorder
Marsha Wharff said a number
of provisional ballots and
absentee ballots left at polls
had not yet been counted.
“There are many trays
worth of absentees that were
left at the polls as well as ones
that came in late from the post
office Tuesday,” Wharff said
Wednesday morning as election officials began to prepare
the remaining ballots for
counting.
According to Wharff, the
Wharff
number of ballots left to be
counted would not be determined until this afternoon, as
elections officials headed
home late Wednesday morning after working through the
night.
“We will not know until the
end of the day tomorrow
(Thursday). We were up all
night and now we’re going
home,” Wharff said.
According to Wharff, an
order issued by the California
Appellate Court on Oct. 31 to
seal the results of the District
Attorney race pending the outcome of legal action between
interim D.A. Keith Faulder
and the Board of Supervisors
slowed the counting process
on election night.
In order to keep the results
in that race hidden, Wharff
said that optical scanning
machines used to count ballots
at polling places had to be
programmed so they would
not read votes cast in the race
between Meredith Lintott and
the late incumbent Norman
Vroman. That way, a tape
printed by the machine showing all results for that precinct,
which must be posted at the
site following the closing of
the polls, would not include
the race.
To tally the actual results,
including the D.A.’s race, all
ballots had to be rescanned at
the Elections Office in the
County Administration Center
and then the results were
uploaded in a manner that
would keep the D.A. results
secret from the public.
“We had to rerun those
precincts when the ballots
came into the office so the
results could be suppressed
and not released pursuant to
the court order,” Wharff said.
“It was very time consuming.”
According to Wharff, the
office is required to handcount ballots from 1 percent
of precincts before results are
made official. This official
canvass of votes may, by law,
take up to 28 days after the
election. Wharff said absentee
and provisional ballots left at
the polls will be counted and
included in the results
released when the canvass is
complete.

Arrest
in labor
camp
assault
The Daily Journal
The Mendocino County
Sheriff’s office arrested a man
on multiple felony charges in
connection with an assault at
a labor camp on Bartolomei
Road Tuesday night.
Miguel Acebes Mendoza,
36, of Ukiah, was arrested on
suspicion of assault with a
deadly weapon, assault with
the intent of committing a sex
crime, burglary, criminal
threats and probation violations in the 1500 block of
Bartolomei Road at 7:30 p.m.
Tuesday.
According to reports from
the Mendocino County
Sheriff’s Office, deputies
responded to a call made by
the 20-year-old victim from
the Talmage Store Tuesday
night.
The victim told deputies
that Mendoza had entered his
bedroom, threatened to kill
him and slashed the victim
across the stomach with a
kitchen knife, causing superficial injuries.
Mendoza then pulled down
the victim’s pants and said he
was going to rape the victim,
according to Sheriff’s reports.
The victim managed to
escape the house and contact
Sheriff’s deputies. Mendoza
was located by Sheriff’s
deputies and arrested without
incident. A records check
revealed that Mendoza was
on probation.
Mendoza was booked into
jail on the above listed
charges and is being held on a
no bail status because of the
probation violation.
The victim’s injuries were
not serious and did not
require emergency medical
treatment.

The world briefly
To our readers:
Bush congratulates
Democrats on ’thumping’
midterm victories
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Bush
pledged Wednesday to work with Democrats
after the “thumping” that Republicans took on
Election Day. He named a new defense secretary to oversee the war in Iraq, a change the
president said was going to happen regardless
of which party won the election.
Bush said former CIA Director Robert
Gates, if confirmed by the Senate, would
replace Donald H. Rumsfeld at the Pentagon.
Gates is a “patriot” and “strategic thinker”
with a transformational spirit, Bush said from
the Oval Office.
“He’s a man of integrity, candor and sound
judgment,” the president said. “He knows that
the challenge of protecting our country is larger than any political party. He has a record of
working with leaders on both sides of the aisle
to strengthen our national security. He has my
confidence and my trust.”
Bush praised Rumsfeld, in the Cabinet from
the start of the Bush presidency, saying,
“America is safer and the world is more secure
because of the leadership and the service of
Don Rumsfeld.”
For more on Rumsfeld, see Page 15
Democrats set sights
on Virginia with Senate
control within reach
WASHINGTON (AP) — Control of
Congress in sight, Democrats ousted Montana
GOP Sen. Conrad Burns on Wednesday and
pinned their hopes of seizing power in the
Senate on a triumph in Virginia. The party
looked to widen its margin of victory over
Republicans in the House.
In an all-around banner election year for
Democrats, voters frustrated about the direction of the country toppled Republicans at all
levels of government in a searing rebuke of the
status quo.
“It was a thumpin,”’ President Bush told
reporters at a White House news conference.
“It’s clear the Democrat Party had a good
night.”
The incumbent, who spoke of spending his
political capital after his re-election triumph
two years ago, acknowledged, “As the head of
the Republican Party, I share a large part of the
responsiblity.”
With power on Capitol Hill tilting, Bush
faced the reality of at least half of Congress in
the opposition’s hands for the final two years
of his presidency. He announced that Defense
Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld would step
down as Democrats have demanded.
Hastert will not seek minority
leader post in new House
WASHINGTON (AP) — Triggering a postelection shake-up, Dennis Hastert announced
Wednesday he will not run for leader of House
Republicans when Democrats take control in
January.
“Obviously I wish my party had won,” the
House Speaker said in a statement that added
he intends to return to the “full-time task” of
representing his Illinois constituents.
His decision to step down from the leadership cleared the way for a likely succession

battle among lawmakers who face the sudden
loss of power after a dozen years in the majority.
Rep. John Boehner of Ohio, currently the
majority leader, is expected to run for leader,
and Rep. Mike Pence of Indiana announced
during the day he also will seek the post. Joe
Barton of Texas has signaled he may join the
field.
Hastert first conveyed word of his plans in a
conference call with fellow GOP leaders one
day after Republicans lost control of the House
in midterm elections.
There is no recent precedent for Hastert’s
situation. The last time control of the House
changed hands, in 1994, the speaker at the
time, Democratic Rep. Tom Foley of
Washington, lost his House seat.

Police Department. To

ARREST
-Robert
Schwarm, 30, of Ukiah, was
arrested on suspicion of
assault with a deadly weapon
in the 1200 block of Airport
Park Bouldevard at 11:26 a.m.
Tuesday.
ARREST -- Jones Lamont
Jr., 29, of Ukiah, was arrested
on suspicion of driving under
the influence and driving with
Iraq’s parliament renews
state of emergency for 30
days as violence continues
BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) — Beset by rampant
sectarian violence, Iraq’s parliament voted
Wednesday to extend the country’s state of
emergency for 30 more days, as at least 66
more Iraqis were killed or found dead.
Wednesday’s deaths included those of eight
soccer players and fans cut down by a pair of
mortar rounds that slammed onto a field in
Baghdad’s Sadr City neighborhood.
The U.S. military, meanwhile, announced
the deaths of a soldier and a Marine, raising the
number of American forces killed this month
in Iraq to 21 in the first eight days of
November.
Lawmakers present for a closed-door meeting attended by Prime Minister Nouri alMaliki voted unanimously to extend the emergency measures, said legislators Ammar
Touama and Kamal al-Saidi.
The state of emergency has been renewed
every month since it was first authorized in
November 2004. It allows for a nighttime curfew and gives the government extra powers to
make arrests without warrants and launch
police and military operations. The measures
are implemented in all areas of the country
apart from the autonomous Kurdish region in
the north.
Plea
Continued from Page 1
for entrance of plea so that he
could examine the prosecution’s evidence.
Raff said he intended to file
a motion for change of venue
in this case.
“I just need an attorney to
file change of venue.” Raff
said. “This (trial) won’t be
held here.”
Acting District Attorney
Keith Faulder asked that
Superior Court Judge Cindee
Mayfield increase Raff’s bail.
He said, because Raff is not
from Mendocino County, he
represents a significant flight
risk. Faulder also cited the
premeditated nature of the
alleged crime.
“Mr. Raff has made statements that he came all the way
from Arizona to kill Ms.
Larkin,” Faulder said.
Mayfield agreed, raising
Raff's bail to $500,000, the
bail schedule normally man-
Study: Low-carb, high-fat
diet doesn’t raise the
risk of heart disease
(AP) Eating a low-carb, high-fat diet for
years doesn’t raise the risk of heart disease, a
long-term study suggests, easing fears that the
popular Atkins diet and similar regimens might
set people up for eventual heart attacks.
The study of thousands of women over two
decades found that those who got lots of their
carbohydrates from refined sugars and highly
processed foods nearly doubled their risk of
heart disease.
At the same time, those who ate a low-carb
diet but got more of their protein and fat from
vegetables rather than animal sources cut their
heart disease risk by 30 percent on average,
compared with those who ate more animal fats.
The findings came from researchers at
Harvard University’s schools of medicine and
public health who reviewed records of 82,802
women in the ongoing Nurses’ Health Study
over 20 years. The women were not dieting to
lose weight.
a suspended license at the
intersection of North State
Street and Kunzler Ranch
Road at 2:26 a.m. Wednesday.
Those arrested by law enforcement
officers are innocent until proven guilty.
People reported as having been arrested may contact the Daily Journal once
their case has been concluded so the
results can be reported. Those who feel
the information is in error should contact the appropriate agency. In the case
of those arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of an intoxicant: all DUI cases reported by law
enforcement agencies are reported by
the newspaper. The Daily Journal makes
no exceptions.
CORRECTIONS
The Ukiah Daily Journal reserves this
space to correct errors or make clarifications
dated for murder suspects.
Raff is expected to enter a
plea later this month.
Raff is charged with
attempted murder in connection with the attack on Larkin
who was shot in the head at
9:40 a.m. Monday at the law
offices of Hugh L. Preston
where she worked as a secretary.
Larkin was transferred to
the Ukiah Valley Medical
Center for treatment and taken
from there to Santa Rosa
Memorial Hospital and then
to the UC Davis Medical
Center in Sacramento. She is
listed in critical but stable
condition.
According to a friend of the
family, Larkin was shot just
below her right temple and the
bullet shattered her sinus cavity and passed through two
arteries before lodging in the
muscle on the back left side of
her neck.
Doctors removed the bullet
but will not perform surgery
until Larkin is in a more stable
condition. Doctors will not

know how much, if any, brain
damage Larkin may have suffered until they perform
surgery.
According to the Ukiah
Police Department, after the
shooting Raff abandoned the
gun at scene but took the clip
with him to the Mendocino
Superior Courthouse where he
turned himself in to courthouse security.
Police said Raff made
statements about having shot
someone to courthouse personnel.
The shooting is believed to
have something to do with
custody and child support
issues surrounding a daughter,
now an adult, that Raff and
Larkin had together.

Favorite Mendocino Coast
inn featured on CBS 5
‘Eye on the Bay’ special
The Daily Journal
The picturesque Inn at
Schoolhouse Creek on the
Mendocino Coast was featured on the Thursday Oct.
5th, 2006 episode of the widely viewed “Eye on the Bay”
television program -- CBS
Channel 5 -- reaching over
200,000 viewers in the Bay
Area.
During 2006, the Inn
received national media attention and accolades for its
award-winning family oriented services, pet friendly
accommodations, and as one
of the most romantic spots on
the Mendocino Coast. The Inn
will be featured nationally this
fall on the popular travel program “Great Escapes” which
airs on The E Entertainment,
Style and Outdoor Life
Network
channels.
Forbes.com listed the Inn at
Schoolhouse Creek in its 2006
list of 10 “Best places to take
your children.” Pet owners
know the Inn as a recipient of
the prestigious “Golden
Bone” Award by The Dog
Lover’s
Companion
to
California for being one of the
best dog friendly destinations
in America.
The Inn property’s 19
rooms and cottages are nestled on nine acres of lush gardens, meadows and forested

Tickets are on sale for The Ukiah
Main Street Program and Thurston
Auto Plaza’s second show of this
year’s Comedy Alley season,
Saturday Nov. 18. Show begins at 8
p.m., doors open at 7 p.m., in the
Ukiah Valley Conference Center,
200 S. School St. This Month’s
show, sponsored by Freedom Skate
Shop and Freedom Girls, spotlights
Jackie Kashian, features Mike
Winfield and opening act Matt
Morales.
The Ukiah Main Street Program’s
hit comedy series, Comedy Alley,
keeps the new season rolling with
Veteran Comedian Jackie Kashian.
In 1985, Kashian got drunk and
heckled Sam Kinison in Madison,
Wis. She was told, by management,
that open mike night was on
Sundays. A pretty tale, you’ll agree?
Yet... still no jail time. Her parents
are very proud. Since then has
toured the world doing stand-up in
clubs, colleges, and theaters and on
television. Most recently, Kashian
was selected to participate on the

last season of the hit NBC talent
show, “Last Comic Standing,” and
now she has a her own half-hour
special for Comedy Central Presents
and has appeared on several standup shows including NBC’s Late
Friday and Comedy Central’s
Premium Blend. She has appeared
in the prestigious HBO Comedy
Arts Festival in Aspen,
Bumbershoot Arts Festival in
Seattle and the Just for Laughs
Festival in Montreal. Kashian has
appeared on ABC-Australia,
Comedy Central, NBC, VH1, and
A&E and she filmed a small part in
Margaret Cho’s new movie “Bam
Bam and Celeste.” She also played
an airport cop on the last season of
Murphy Brown. She has two CDs;
“Cake is Not My Downfall,” her
first -- a stand-up and theater piece
album and her new CD, “Circus
People.”
This show also features Mike
Winfield, a finalist in this year’s
San Francisco International Comedy
Competition. Winfield took 4th

dians. Winfield hails form
Sacramento, and is quickly becoming the talk of the town. He just finished taping his first television
appearance on BET’s “Comic
View,” and has performed at clubs

Winfield presents a truly unique
perspective on first impressions and
the dilemma of stereotypes and his
bigger than life presence one stage
and his infectious smile make him a
real standout among stand-ups.
Opening this month’s Comedy

Ron LeValley to present ‘Crossing the Pacific
-- A Sailing Adventure in the South Pacific’
The Daily Journal
Peregrine Audubon will be bringing
back one of their most popular and
dynamic speakers, naturalist and pelagic
bird biologist, Ron LeValley. LeValley
has recently returned from a trans-Pacific
sailing odyssey to the Marquesas Islands.
LeValley had given himself the project of
counting, recording and trying to photograph all of the birds and wildlife
encountered on this voyage, and he will
be sharing that adventure with us:
“Crossing the Pacific -- A Sailing
Adventure in the South Pacific.”
On April 1, after a pleasant week in
Baja, Ron joined a few friends for the
sailing voyage of a lifetime. From La
Paz, Baja, Mexico to the island of Tahiti,
their final destination, took seven weeks.
Their initial stop was at the Revilla de los
Gigedos Islands, a marine sanctuary 300
miles southwest of Baja. Here they were
able to dive in absolutely clear water and
encountered rich marine life, sharks, and
a mother and calf humpbacked whale.
Then the crew of the Seafever5 spent
the next three weeks in open ocean
waters before reaching the Marquesas.
En route, they crossed the equator and
shared a “Tuna Blood” cocktail as a sacrifice to King Neptune so he would protect them through the remainder of the
voyage.
They sailed on through the lush volcanic islands of the Tuamotos, where the
scenery and culture inspired Melville and
Gauguin. They were able to explore some
of these islands, touring archeological
sites and enjoying the local plants and
wildlife. Finally, on May 17, they
reached their destination in Tahiti.
The public is invited to attend as
LeValley shares his photographs from
this exciting Pacific crossing to French
Polynesia. The group will sail with
Captain LeValley at 7 p.m. on Thursday,
Nov. 16. The ship is docked at the Ukiah
Civic Center, 300 Seminary Ave. Passage
is free to the public, but donations are
accepted.

Letters from our readers
Apples and rotten oranges
To the Editor:
The last few sentences of Mr.
Rorabaugh’s letter (Daily Journal, Nov. 3,
“Clinton sex worse than Foley emails”)
shouldn’t pass without comment. Mr.
Rorabaugh’s states “And as far as the now
disgraced Rep. Foley is concerned, my
understanding is that no sexual acts actually occurred; just e-mails. Then again, perhaps left-wingers don’t really see the difference between e-mail and sex? In any
case, Rep. Foley resigned while the lying
President Clinton did not.” Most would
agree that Clinton’s lie about sex between
two consenting adults and Foley’s action as
sexual predator baiting the trap to snare the
innocent would be comparing apples to rotting oranges. Foley’s actions, and those
who looked the other way, cannot be
defended because one of the parties
involved was not consenting and was
instead being manipulated for the other’s
ultimate pleasure. When Mr. Rorabaugh
states that “Foley resigned while the lying
Clinton did not” he suggests that Foley is
somehow the more honorable of the two.
Foley isn’t honorable and deserves no elevation of stature, compassion or forgiveness because he resigned. When Mr.
Rorabaugh implies that Clinton should
have done the honorable thing and
resigned, he provides the observer the
opportunity to compare apples to apples.
Mr. Clinton’s lies did not plunder our
Treasury, as Mr. Bush’s do today, at the
rate of $11 million an hour. Mr. Clinton’s
PAUL KRUGMAN
As Bechtel
goes ...
lies didn’t break our volunteer armed
forces or misuse our National Guard. Mr.
Clinton lies didn’t leave a part of the world
in chaos and then state that a future
President will be in office before the situation improves. Mr. Clinton’s lies didn’t
have our young men and women arrive
home in flag draped coffins at a rate of
about 20 a week. I don’t think Mr.
Rorabaugh would mind if I borrowed his
logic and judge the two liars. Mr. Clinton
owed the citizens of the United States an
apology for lying and Mr. Bush should do
the honorable thing and resign. And take
his lying Vice-President with him.

UVAH celebrates 45 years
Much has changed in the 45 years Ukiah
Valley Association for Habilitation has been
serving the community. UVAH was started
by a small group of parents who had children with mental retardation. The terminology we use has changed, the services we provide have changed, our perception and attitudes about people with disabilities have
changed and the people we serve have
changed.
The language we use is often a key indicator of how we view things. Forty-five
years ago, we were incorporated as Ukiah
Valley Association for Retarded Children.
The main focus was on supporting families
with school-aged children. When services
started to be provided to adults as well as
children, we changed our name to Ukiah
Valley Association for Retarded. By 1985
we were serving people with many types of
handicapping conditions; our name became
Ukiah Valley Association for the
Handicapped. Ten years later we adopted
our current name, Ukiah Valley Association
for Habilitation, to emphasize the service we
provide rather than the people who use our
services. Habilitation refers to the process of
helping people acquire new skills and abilities, such as independent living skills or
vocational skills.
There have been other changes in how we
talk about disabilities that reflect changes in
society’s perception of people with disabilities. In the not-so-distant past, people with
disabilities were considered ill or being punished by God, or even as lesser human
beings. They were described by derogatory
references to their handicap with words like
“crip,” “retard,” or “spaz.” As our culture
matured we began to recognize that describing people by their physical and mental
attributes was limiting at best and insulting
at worst.
We now use phrases like, “people with
autism,” or “people with cerebral palsy.” We
are learning to see the person first, not the
disability. People are no longer being
referred to as “wheelchair bound” and are
identified as a person who uses a wheelchair.
This change in terms and perception means
that we are starting to treat people with disabilities with more respect. We are seeing a

whole person, not just a disability. The
importance of this distinction will ring true
with anyone who has been in a hospital and
had the doctor walk up and say, “Is this the
gall bladder?” with no recognition of the
person in whom the gall bladder resides.
UVAH serves people with many types of
disabilities, but most of the people we serve
have developmental disabilities. This term
refers to people that have mental retardation,
epilepsy, autism, cerebral palsy or a similar
handicapping condition that occurs before
the age of 18. In 1977, the Lanterman Act
was passed in California. This law established an entitlement to services in the community for people with developmental disabilities and their families. It stated that people with disabilities had the same legal
rights as every other citizen. It meant that
families could have support so their children
could grow up at home and have needed services and supports available throughout
their lives wherever they chose to live.
For UVAH this meant major growth.
Until the 1980s, UVAH served primarily
people who already lived in the Ukiah
Valley, Willits and Lake County. In 1985, we
opened the Rural Adult Program to support
people who moved back here after being
released from state hospitals. The number of
people served daily increased from 50 to
100 people.
We started services that could support
people who need help to take care of their
personal needs, such as eating and using the
restroom. We learned how to communicate
with people who use behavior instead of
words to make their wishes known. Today
we continue to help people get physical
exercise and support to make friends and do
things they enjoy.
In 1965, Mayacama Industries started out
as a workshop in Talmage. Its purpose was
to provide training and sheltered employment. In the 1980’s the economy changed
and sub-contract work was disappearing. We
assessed the workers, many of whom had
been in training for years. We created work
crews in the community and focused on providing employment with support in integrated settings. Mayacama Employment Service
was created. This successful partnership
with Mendocino Private Industry Council
has resulted in many employers getting
competent, successful employees. In 1988
we closed the workshop because it was no
longer needed.
In the last 45 years, people with disabilities have gotten out of large institutions,
been allowed into school classrooms, and
they have been given access to public transportation and public and private buildings
with the passage of the federal Americans
with Disabilities Act. In the future, we will
see more changes as our society continues to
change its expectations about services that
support people to have a quality life - however they define that - whether people are
disabled from birth or acquire disabilities
due to age or life experiences.
UVAH intends to continue to grow and
change. Plans are underway to help support
students with disabilities before they exit
school to be fully included as contributing
members of the community. UVAH has consistently provided quality, innovative services in response to the changing needs and
expectations of the people we serve and their
families. We may not know what we will
look like 45 years from now, or even in the
next ten years, but we do know we will be
working with the entire community to
ensure that people with developmental and
other disabilities will have the services they
need to be successful. We are proud of our
contributions to the community and invite
everyone to join us at our 45th birthday celebration at 990 South Dora St. on Monday,
Nov. 20, from 4:30 to 6 p.m.
Pamela Jensen is the executive director of
UVAH.

Bechtel, the giant engineering company, is leaving
Iraq. Its mission -- to rebuild power, water and sewage
plants -- wasn't accomplished: Baghdad received less
than six hours a day of electricity last month, and
much of Iraq's population lives with untreated sewage
and without clean water. But Bechtel, having received
$2.3 billion of taxpayers' money and having lost the
lives of 52 employees, has come to the end of its last
government contract.
As Bechtel goes, so goes the whole reconstruction
effort. Whatever our leaders may say about their determination to stay the course, I mean, complete the mission, when it comes to rebuilding Iraq they've already
cut and run. The $21 billion allocated for reconstruction over the last three years has been spent, much of
it on security rather than its intended purpose, and
there's no more money in the pipeline.
The failure of reconstruction in Iraq raises three
questions. First, how much did that failure contribute
to the overall failure of the war? Second, how was it
that America, the great can-do nation, in this case
couldn't and didn't? Finally, if we've given up on
rebuilding Iraq, what are our troops dying for?
There's no definitive way to answer the first question. You can make a good case that the invasion of
Iraq was doomed no matter what, because we never
had enough military manpower to provide security.
But the lack of electricity and clean water did a lot to
dissipate any initial good will the Iraqis may have felt
toward the occupation. And Iraqis are well aware that
the billions squandered by American contractors
included a lot of Iraqi oil revenue as well as U.S. taxpayers' dollars.
Consider the symbolism of Iraq's new police academy, which Stuart Bowen, the special inspector general for Iraq reconstruction, has called "the most essential civil security project in the country." It was built at
a cost of $75 million by Parsons Corp., which received
a total of about $1 billion for Iraq reconstruction projects. But the academy was so badly built that feces
and urine leak from the ceilings in the student barracks.
Think about it. We want the Iraqis to stand up so we
can stand down. But if they do stand up, we'll dump
excrement on their heads.
As for how this could have happened, that's easy:
Major contractors believed, correctly, that their political connections insulated them from accountability.
Halliburton and other companies with huge Iraq contracts were basically in the same position as Donald
Rumsfeld: They were so closely identified with
President Bush and, especially, Vice President Cheney
that firing or even disciplining them would have been
seen as an admission of personal failure on the part of
top elected officials.
As a result, the administration and its allies in
Congress fought accountability all the way.
Administration officials, reports The Wall Street
Journal, have "waged several behind-the-scenes
attempts to close down" the office of Bowen, whose
job is to oversee the use of reconstruction money. Just
this past May, with the failed reconstruction already
winding down, the White House arranged for the last
$1.5 billion of reconstruction money to be placed outside Bowen's jurisdiction.
The bottom line is that those charged with rebuilding Iraq had no incentive to do the job right, so they
didn't.
You can see, by the way, why a Democratic
takeover of the House, if it happens next week, would
be such a pivotal event: Suddenly, committee chairmen with subpoena power would be in a position to
investigate where all the Iraq money went.
But that's all in the past. What about the future?
Back in June, after a photo-op trip to Iraq, Bush
said something I agree with. "You can measure
progress in megawatts of electricity delivered," he
declared. "You can measure progress in terms of oil
sold on the market on behalf of the Iraqi people." But
what those measures actually show is the absence of
progress. By any material measure, Iraqis are worse
off than they were under Saddam.
And we're not planning to do anything about it: The
U.S.-led reconstruction effort in Iraq is basically over.
I don't know whether the administration is afraid to
ask U.S. voters for more money, or simply considers
the situation hopeless. Either way, the United States
has accepted defeat on reconstruction.
Yet Americans are still fighting and dying in Iraq.
For what?

BAY AREA NFL NEWS
Niners’ reserves are shining as starters
By GREG BEACHAM
The Associated Press
SANTA CLARA — Brandon
Moore was surrounded by reporters at
his locker Wednesday for maybe the
first time in his NFL career, so Keith
Lewis captured the moment with a
camera phone picture.
Both players had better get used to
the spotlight. The longtime backups
were added to the San Francisco
49ers’ starting lineup on defense last
week, and both played big roles in
revitalizing one of the NFL’s worst
schemes.
Moore was named the NFC’s defensive player of the week after the linebacker made 14 tackles and a sack in
the 49ers’ 9-3 victory over the
Minnesota Vikings — a surprising win
that featured arguably San Francisco’s
best defensive performance in a halfdecade.
Moore, a fifth-year pro originally
signed as an undrafted free agent,
made his reputation in San Francisco
last season while starting 10 games in
place of Jeff Ulbrich, who was sidelined by an arm injury. Ulbrich is
healthy this season, but Moore simply
reclaimed the starting job with better
performances.
“That’s been the way my career has
been,” said Moore, who was still waiting to get congratulatory calls from
friends and family on his honor. “In
different instances I’ve been given
opportunities, and I’ve just tried to
take advantage of it. Inside (linebacker), outside, special teams — as
long as we’re winning, it doesn’t matter to me.”
The Long Island native made 93
tackles last season for the NFL’s worst
defense, earning a contract extension
despite his near-anonymity outside
San Francisco. He easily was the
49ers’
hardest
hitter
against
Minnesota, chasing down ball-carriers
and providing pressure on Brad
Johnson.
“When the opportunity came for
him to be a starter, he did an outstanding job,” coach Mike Nolan said. “At
the very beginning (of training camp),
he was competing at the outside (linebacker) position, then the inside position, then we went to the 4-3 for most
of what we do. But we felt that he
deserved the opportunity to start.”
Lewis, a third-year pro from
Sacramento, also got into the action as
the 49ers’ starting free safety in place
of Mike Adams. The special-teams
standout provided a hard-hitting presence behind one of the NFL’s worst
pass defenses, perhaps finally putting
some fear into pass-catchers who
weren’t worried about going across the
middle against the 49ers.
Lewis started the final four games
of last season, but became San
Francisco’s special teams captain after
Terry Jackson was cut. He played
extensively on defense and special
teams against Minnesota, and found
the workload tough, but manageable.

After allowing the Comets to score a
few points in a row getting the game as
close as 26-13, the Eagles decided to put
the first game away in a definitive way
with a kill from Jamie Brown, who
ended the night with 11 kills, two digs

In the second game, the Comets got

FREMONT
—
The
Oakland Athletics reached a
deal with Cisco Systems Inc.
to build a new ballpark in
Fremont, according to city
officials who met with the
team’s owner Wednesday.
The agreement would create a 32,000- to 35,000-seat
ballpark, dubbed Cisco
Field, on a 143-acre parcel
held by the company, officials told the San Jose
Mercury News. If the plan is
approved by the city, the A’s
could begin playing in
Fremont — 20 miles south of
Oakland — as soon as 2011,
the newspaper reported.
A formal announcement
of the deal was planned for
Tuesday at Cisco’s San Jose
headquarters.
A’s owner Lew Wolff
declined to speak to reporters
Wednesday as he left a meeting with four Fremont City
Council members. Cisco
officials also declined to
comment.
Team spokesman Jim
Young has said the A’s won’t
comment until an announcement is made.
There’s also a possibility
the team could be renamed.
Wolff offered “Fremont A’s”
and “Silicon Valley A’s” as
possibilities, council members told the newspaper.
“They have an interest in
having a good, clear identity,
probably a regional one. We
have an interest in the name
Fremont. There’s a feeling
we’ll try to accommodate
both of those,” Mayor Bob
Wasserman said.
The deal is contingent on
the city approving a largescale development plan for

Home sweet home
By JAMES ARENS
The Daily Journal
A rose by any other name smells just
as sweet and a win by the Mendocino
College volleyball team in their last
game at home is even sweeter.
On Wednesday night the Eagles
defeated the Contra Costa College
Comets in three straight games 30-13,
30-6 and 30-11 and won in front of a
family filled crowd.
“We played really good volleyball
tonight,” said head coach Ed Schweitzer.
“We played very consistently and we
were able to keep up our level of play
while playing a team that has struggled
all year.”
In the first game, after getting roses
from Schweitzer, the Eagles came out
and were a thorn in the Comets side all
night. After going up 4-0 early the
Comets scored but then came a big kill
from Gina Sbragia, who ended the night
with 10 kills, three blocks and seven
aces. This was a reoccurring event all
BAY AREA NFL NEWS
Brayton, Stevens fined by NFL, avoid suspensions
By JOSH DUBOW
ALAMEDA — When Tyler
Brayton got back to the Oakland locker room after being ejected for kneeing
Seattle tight end Jerramy Stevens in
the groin, he counted on facing a suspension.
The infraction happened on national television and he heard the commentators compare him to Tennessee
cheap-shot artist Albert Haynesworth,
making a suspension seem like an
inevitable punishment.
The NFL spared Brayton a suspension Wednesday, ruling that Stevens
was also to blame for the altercation
and fining both players instead.
Brayton got docked $25,000 and
Stevens will lose $15,000 for their
behavior in Seattle’s 16-0 victory over
Oakland on Monday night.
“I feel like I let a lot of people
down. I embarrassed myself, my family, the Raiders organization, the entire
NFL,” Brayton said. “For that, I apologize. I kind of allowed my personal
frustrations and emotions to get the
best of me. My actions are inexcusable, provoked or unprovoked. I also
apologize to Jerramy Stevens and
Seattle Seahawks. Doesn’t matter
what the situation was, I had no right
to do that.”
Gene Washington, the NFL’s director of football operations, ruled that
Stevens attempted to kick Brayton in
the groin area on the same play, leading to his fine.
Washington also ruled that Stevens
head-butted and taunted Oakland safety Stuart Schweigert on a play in the
second quarter that drew a personal
foul. Stevens was not ejected from the
game.
Stevens refused comment through a
team spokesman after the Seahawks
practiced in Kirkland, Wash.
Teammate Julian Peterson said he
“couldn’t stand” Stevens when
Peterson played in San Francisco prior
to this season, because Stevens
“knows how to rub people the wrong
way.”
“It’s sort of like that gnat that keeps
on being around you. You’re like,
’Man, get away. You end up trying to
slap it all the time,” Peterson said,
slapping his arm.
But the linebacker thought Stevens’
fine was unfair.
“I didn’t think Jerramy deserved a
fine on that,” Peterson said. “He didn’t
intentionally try to knee anybody in
the groin area ... I think that’s a little
bit excessive right there.”
Raiders coach Art Shell made a
point Tuesday of showing the league
why he believed Stevens was the instigator, a contention Seahawks coach
Mike Holmgren disagreed with.
“You get two teams, two coaches,
you look at the same play and see it
differently. I mean, that’s pretty normal,” he said. “We all want the same
thing, for the game to be played properly, within the rules, all those things.
And sometimes it’s necessary to send a
message. I certainly will have my
opinions. I will keep them to myself,
though.”
Holmgren said he did talk to his
players Wednesday about what he
called “selfish” acts that take away
from the team’s objectives. He said he
would talk to Stevens specifically later
in the week.
“Those are things that really bother
me a lot,” Holmgren said. “It is such a
great game, and such a great team
effort to get something done, that to
have someone put themselves above
the team in any way, it just bothers me.
That’s a no-no. I ranted and raved a little bit this morning. But I think I
explained to them why. They got to
know how I feel.”
Brayton said he expected a suspension after hearing comparison’s to
Haynesworth, who was suspended for
five games by the NFL earlier this year
for stomping on Dallas center Andre
Gurode’s face.
He admitted it’s difficult to watch
the play again.
“It’s ugly from my end no matter
what you look at it,” he said. “A bigger
man would have walked away and I’m
disappointed in myself for that. But
every time I look at the TV, I just
cringe. That’s not the type of player
that I want to be.”
Brayton addressed his teammates
before practice Wednesday to apologize to them.
“I’m just happy they didn’t get suspended,” Shell said. “There was talk
about that. I was happy they didn’t get

The Eagles started off up 6-0
before allowing the Comets to
score. But yet again, the
Eagles would stomp out that
little fire the Comets had and
rattle off 22 points before the
Comets get to their final
offensive output for the game
of 6 points. The Eagles would
win this game easily, 30-6.
In the third and final game
the Eagles would roll all over
the Comets starting off scoring 10-0 before allowing a
single point. Becky Suenram
would play very well too, getting six kills and five digs on
the night. But alas, the
Comets flickered out and
eventually lost the final game
by a score of 30-11.
“Everybody on the team
had at least one kill,”
Schweitzer said. “That is a
pretty good picture of how we
played tonight.”
Others who played well on
Wednesday were Jen Stark
and Sarah Leutke who combined for 25 assists, 13 digs
and two aces on the night.
The Eagles now go to 6-6
in the Bay Valley Conference
and to 7-9 overall. Their next
game will be on Friday at
6:30 p.m. at Laney College.
Lakers lose
Trail Blazers 101, Lakers
90
By ANNE M. PETERSON
PORTLAND, Ore.
—
Zach Randolph had 36 points
and 10 rebounds to lead the
Portland Trail Blazers to a
101-90 victory over the Los
Angeles
Lakers
on
Wednesday night.
The Blazers (3-2), who led
by as many as 15 points, have
won five straight against the
Lakers at the Rose Garden
arena.
Randolph, who has averaged 28 points and 10.5
rebounds over Portland’s first
five games, had a two-handed
dunk to put the Blazers ahead
78-69 early in the fourth quarter.
Kobe Bryant scored 32
points for the Lakers (4-2),
and made it close with a layup
and a free throw that narrowed it to 93-86 with 1:41
left. But Stephen Graham
answered with a 3-pointer for
the Blazers to seal it.
The Blazers led by as many
as eight points in the first half,
but Luke Walton’s layup and
3-pointer put the Lakers up
40-35. The Blazers closed the
half with an 11-4 run to lead
55-49.
Ime Udoka, who made
Portland’s roster as a training
camp invitee, hit a 3-pointer
to put the Blazers ahead 6653 midway through the third
period.
The Lakers answered with
a 14-4 run to make it 70-67,
capped by Bryant’s 3-pointer.
It was as close as they would
come.
The Blazers were without
Brandon Roy, the sixth overall pick in the June draft, who
was out with a heel injury that
limited him to 14 minutes in a
102-89 loss to the Clippers on
Monday.
He was held out of
Wednesday night’s game as a
precaution, but could be back
on Friday when the Blazers
host New Orleans. He is averaging 18.3 points this season.
Bryant, who missed the
Lakers’ first two games of the
season as he recovered from
last summer’s knee surgery,
averaged 38.3 points against
the Blazers last season. He
has scored at least 30 points in
eight straight games at the
Rose Garden.
Randolph, who averaged
18.5 points and 11 rebounds
in his two home games
against the Lakers last season,
has four double-doubles in
five games this season.
Notes: In the last meeting
between the Lakers and the
Blazers on April 14, Bryant
had 50 points in a 110-99 victory. Blazers center Joel
Przybilla missed a third
straight lower abdominal
hematoma.
Blazers owner Paul Allen,
who put the team on the market last season then inexplicably pulled it off during the
summer, attended the game
after missing the home opener
with bronchitis.

Defensive tackle Warren Sapp

But Lewis and Moore will

Cleveland Indians get Barfield from Padres
By TOM WITHERS
CLEVELAND — Just like
his dad, Josh Barfield made it
to the big leagues. Now, he’s
following his father to the
American League.
Barfield, who as a rookie
second baseman helped San
Diego win a division title,
was acquired Wednesday by
the Cleveland Indians, who
traded
infielder
Kevin
Kouzmanoff and right-hander
Andrew Brown to the Padres.
The 23-year-old Barfield,
who played in 150 games last
season, was stunned by the
deal.
“I had no idea when I got
the call this morning,” he
said. “It took me by surprise.
But I know it’s going to be a
better situation for me.”
Barfield batted .280 with
32 doubles, 13 homers and 58
RBIs in helping the Padres
win the NL West. The son of
former AL home run champion Jesse Barfield also had 21
steals and scored 72 times.
“I grew up in the American
League,” said Barfield, who
after being told he had been
traded made his first phone
call to his father in Houston.
“My dad was so excited.”
The elder Barfield, who
led the AL with 40 homers in
1986 for Toronto, never
played in Jacobs Field but
coached there with Seattle.
He told his son that he’s headed to a hitter-friendly ballpark.
The younger Barfield
showed some power last season, but some of the balls he
hit in San Diego didn’t carry
deep enough in Petco Park. At
the Jake, he could hit more
homers — though he doesn’t
expect to match his dad’s
power.
“We’re two totally different players,” he said. “I’m not
a 40-homer guy like him.”
Barfield
will
help
Cleveland’s defense, too. His
.987 fielding percentage —
he had nine errors in 684 total
chances — was third-best
among NL second basemen.
One of the Indians’ biggest
deficiencies last season was
their horrid fielding up the
middle,
which
should
improve dramatically because
of Barfield’s speed and range.
Cleveland general manager Mark Shapiro has quickly
crossed off the top item on his
offseason shopping list.
The Indians didn’t have an
up-and-coming second baseman in their minor league
system and would have been
faced with finding one among
a weak free-agent class. But
in Barfield, they got a young,
inexpensive player with plenty of upside in the short and
long-term.
“The package that this guy
brings complements our
existing core of players,”
Shapiro said.
Last season, Shapiro traded utility infielder Brandon
Phillips to Cincinnati, then
dealt second baseman Ronnie
Belliard to St. Louis for
Hector Luna before the July
31 deadline. The Indians, one
of baseball’s biggest disappointments in ’06 after winning 93 games in ’05, used
rookie Joe Inglett and Luna
over the final two months at
second.
Inglett likely will platoon
as a middle infielder next season.
Shapiro’s next target will
probably be help for
Cleveland’s bullpen.
“It remains our biggest
challenge of the offseason,”
Shapiro said. “There are not
clear answers out there, and it
will involve us exploring
every alternative.”
Kouzmanoff, who can play
third base but has been at first
during the Arizona Fall
League, swung his way into
the Indians’ plans last season.
Called up from the minors
on Sept. 2, he became the first
player in history to hit a grand
slam on the first pitch he saw
as a major leaguer, connecting against Texas.

REVIEW
‘Metamorphoses’ creates
magic in a mythical setting
By NEILL BELL
Special for the Journal
Don’t
miss
seeing
Metamorphoses, which is just
starting an all-too-short run at
the Mendocino College
Center Theater. To this advice,
I’d like to add that you should
also buy your tickets without
delay. Besides the fact that it
will only be playing the next
two weekends, there is very
limited seating in the otherwise capacious theater-seating
is all on stage. This give the
audience a remarkably intimate experience, but a maximum of 88 people can be seated for each performance.
Can a play based on twothousand year old Greek
myths and stories make for
exciting theater? Yes. Maybe
even splashy theater. If you
are wise enough to see this
remarkable show, expect to
see mainly thinly-clad actors
(of both sexes) moving gracefully around and through the
large pool of water that is the
center of the stage. As they do
so, you will hear and see the
stories and myths unfold
before your eyes. Saxon West
and Susan Era have choreographed the principal dancers
and other actors beautifully,
adding a welcome dimension
to the storytelling. The fact
that the action takes place
only a few feet from you
makes the audiences‚ experiences intense. And pleasurable.
This production of playwright Mary Zimmerman’s
1998 work is brilliantly staged
and thoroughly enjoyable.
Mendocino College theater
department codirectors Reid
Edelman and Leslie Saxon
West -- working with a large,
talented cast and skilled crew
-- have created magic. You
can’t see this show without
being deeply affected by its
humanity, warmth and its
humor.
Credit for this fine show
should be spread broadly.
Zimmerman adapted her
material from Ovid, some
tales quite brief; others are
more lengthy pieces. All of
them illustrate one or more
aspects of the human condition. We see love, grief, happi-

What can you expect from

devote
to
experiencing
‘Metamorphoses?’ For one
thing, you won’t fall asleep.
The action moves forward
smoothly and rhythmically
from one of the ten stories to
the next. The directors give us
well-paced storytelling and
visuals to hold our attention
fast. On the other hand,
Edelman and Saxon West give
us enough time to savor what
we have just seen and heard.
This is very good direction
and well-timed choreography.
If it sounds as if I‚m giving
a strong recommendation for
you to buy tickets right away
and put Metamorphoses on
your schedule of to-dos, you
are correct. This is one college
production so unique in many
ways that you will want to
drown yourself (in self-pity?)
if you miss it.
Metamorphoses (about 95
minutes, with no intermission)
will be running this weekend
and next weekend only at the

will be Thursday at 7:30 p.m.,

The mockumentary,
‘Callback’ comes
back to the coast
The Daily Journal
The Mendocino Film
Festival is presenting another
film showing in a series of
“Dinner and A Movie”
fundraisers on Saturday, Nov.
11 at 7:30 p.m. in the Abalone
Room at Little River Inn. The
film, Callback, will be followed by a Q and A with its
director, Eric M. Wolfson and
co-writer, co-editor Michael
DeGood, who was also an
actor in the film. Callback
received a standing ovation
when it was shown at the
Inaugural Mendocino Film
Festival last May. This
fundraiser will benefit the 2nd
Annual Mendocino Film
Festival to be held May 17
through May 21, 2007.
Callback is a dark comedy
that lampoons the chaotic
nature of the film industry and
the lunacy of life in
Hollywood. It centers on the
production of Bloodstain, a
film that goes terribly awry
during the first days of shoot-
Inn
for a wide variety of coast
activities.
The Inn at Schoolhouse
Creek is the oldest resort on
the Mendocino stretch of the
North Coast. Its opening coincided with the completion of
the ‘Shoreline Highway’ in
1932, now Highway One. The
workers moved turn-of-thecentury mill workers houses
onto the property. During
World War II, the property
was turned over to the US
Coast Guard to house the
shore patrol. Recent acquisitions and upgrades have
brought the property to its
current state.
Innkeepers Steven Musser
and Maureen Gilbert are
ing. The story unfolds after
these events have already
taken place. What do a schizophrenic, a Shakespearean
actor, a reluctant thug, and a
director bent on revenge have
in common? They’re all
working together on the same
film. Callback tells the story
of the actors and director
whose lives are irrevocably
changed by the making of a
movie and the factors that
cause the film to go hurtling
towards disaster.

experts at what they lovingly
call, “welcoming the world
into our home, the Inn is a
wonderful outlet for our
skills, interests and creative
talents.” Guests boast about
the peaceful experience, “Our
journey to find that “just
right” place has brought us to
the Inn at Schoolhouse Creek.
I think we have found the
place. The view, the quiet
(interrupted only by the buoy
bell), intoxicating ocean
smells, the birds, the trees, the
flowers, and of course the
food and extraordinary hosts - after a busy day in the
metropolis of Mendocino it
was so nice to come home to
the glow of the fireplace and
the warmth of our cottage.”

Datebook: Thursday, Nov. 9, 2006
Today is the 313th day of 2006 and the 48th
day of autumn.
TODAY’S HISTORY: In 1906, Theodore
Roosevelt became the first sitting president to
make an official trip outside of the United
States, traveling to Panama to inspect progress
on the Canal.
In 1965, a massive blackout left much of the
northeastern United States, and the Canadian
provinces of Quebec and Ontario, without
power.
In 1989, the Berlin Wall dividing East and
West Germany was opened.

Your prospects look very
encouraging,
especially
where your work or career is
concerned. Much of it will
be due to your efforts and
talent, but Lady Luck will
have a hand in helping out as
well.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
22) -- Somewhere far
removed from you is something fortuitous stirring on
your behalf. You may hear
about it, but if you don’t,
you will get the news shortly.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov.
23-Dec. 21) -- Equal contributions by all parties usually
predicate joint ventures.
However, you might get an
invitation to be part of
something where your input
is minimal.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19) -- It’s usually wise
to try to do your own thinking, but if for some reason
you would like to confer
with another, go to someone
who is not only wise but is
usually quite lucky at what
he or she does.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 19) -- Because you
know what you want and
know that your chances for
getting what you want look
good, you are apt to discover you’re far more ambitious
than usual at this point in
time.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March
20) -- Your inclination to

be due to some insight from

by self-appointed advisers
who think you can’t do

you. You have the capability
to make the most of any
opportunity you get.
TAURUS (April 20-May
20) -- You could be exceptionally fortunate in being
able to team up with just the
right person. Go along with

nothing for oneself -- and to have profound

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) - Pacing is everything, and it

Answer: When the actor read the contract, he found
it — “PROMISING”
Wife is tired of her husband being constantly angry
Dear Annie: My husband and I have three
children. In the last two years, we have tutored
our 13-year-old daughter in math. However,
when Daddy tries to tutor her, it becomes a
confrontation instead of a learning experience.
He yells and makes sarcastic comments. She,
in turn, gets an attitude and resents that he
ridicules her in front of her siblings. I find his
methods immature and inefficient. He shouts,
she cries. What is being accomplished?
I tutored her for a while, but her grades didn’t improve, so my husband took over. Our
daughter claims he doesn’t love her as much as
her siblings because she’s not good in math. I
told this to him, but nothing changed. Almost
every interaction they have is negative, and
there’s nothing positive to counteract it.
I no longer like the person my husband has
become. He finds a reason to yell about something as soon as he gets home. He’s told the
kids that he would use physical discipline if it
weren’t for me, so I have turned into the fami-
ANNIE’S MAILBOX

ly protector.
I’m ready to get a divorce because I am
unhappy, the kids are unhappy, and he’s obviously unhappy, too. He refuses counseling
because “they can’t help us.” Right now, I want
peace at any price. -- Frustrated
Dear Frustrated: Your husband seems
stressed, angry and depressed. First, go to your
daughter’s school and ask for help finding a
tutor. (Parents are often inappropriate tutors for
their children.) Then tell your husband that
counseling is your alternative to divorce, and
you want him to come with you because you
both are unhappy and making the children miserable. If he still refuses, go without him.

Dear Annie: My in-laws have two dachshunds. The dogs have frequent accidents in
their house, requiring their carpets to be
cleaned at least once a month. They also let the
dogs sleep in bed with them.
I have made it clear that I have no desire to
have these dogs in my house or beds, plus we
have a cat. My in-laws live far away and hate
to put their dogs in a kennel or have friends
look after them. The problem is, they won’t
take no for an answer and insist on visiting
with the dogs. My husband feels as I do, but
can never bring himself to say “no” to his parents, so I am always the bad guy. We have two
daughters who rarely see Grandma and
Grandpa because their grandparents would
rather stay home than come without the dogs.
Would you please state your views on this?
-- California
Dear California: Asking some people to
travel without their dogs is like asking them to
come without their children. However, since
these animals are so ill-trained and since you
have a cat, the dogs should not be in your
house. There are many pet-friendly hotels.
Find out if any are near you and suggest that
your in-laws stay there with the dogs. You can
then visit in a neutral location.
Dear Annie: My husband passed away in
January. I am getting out some, mostly to
church activities, but still find myself missing
him a lot. Sometimes I don’t feel particularly
sad, but will find myself suddenly breaking
into tears. Is this normal? Am I ever going to
get over this?
I was wondering if there was a place where
I could get some information. I am recently
retired and have plenty of time, though I try to
keep busy with painting, the computer and
sewing. Any advice would be welcome. -Monda in Mobile
Dear Monda: Your reactions are perfectly
normal. There are several places that offer support and resources for bereaved adults and their
families. Try AARP Grief and Loss Programs
(aarp.org/griefandloss), 601 E St., NW,
Washington, D.C. 20049; and The Beginning

now is at the Ukiah

Rumsfeld resigns hours after Democrats win House
By ROBERT BURNS
and
KATHERINE SHRADER
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — After
years of defending his secretary of defense, President
Bush
on
Wednesday
announced
Donald
H.
Rumsfeld’s resignation within
hours of the Democrats’ triumph in congressional elections. Bush reached back to
his father’s administration to
tap a former CIA director to
run the Pentagon.
The Iraq war was the central issue of Rumsfeld’s nearly
six-year tenure, and unhappiness with the war was a major
element of voter dissatisfaction Tuesday — and the main
impetus for his departure.
Even some GOP lawmakers
became critical of the war’s
management, and growing
numbers of politicians were
urging Bush to replace
Rumsfeld.
Bush said Robert Gates, 63,
who has served in a variety of
national security jobs under
six previous presidents, would
be nominated to replace
Rumsfeld. Gates, currently the
president of Texas A&M
University, is a Bush family
friend and a member of an
independent group studying
the way ahead in Iraq.
The White House hopes
that replacing Rumsfeld with
Gates can help refresh U.S.
policy on the deeply unpopular war and perhaps establish a
stronger rapport with the new
Congress. Rumsfeld had a
rocky relationship with many
lawmakers.
“Secretary Rumsfeld and I
agreed that sometimes it’s
necessary to have a fresh perspective,” Bush said in the
abrupt announcement during a
postelection news conference.
In a later appearance at the
White House with Rumsfeld
and Gates at his side, Bush
praised both men, thanked
Rumsfeld for his service and
predicted that Gates would
bring fresh ideas.
“The secretary of defense
must be a man of vision who
can see threats still over the
horizon and prepare our
nation to meet them. Bob
Gates is the right man to meet
both of these critical challenges,” Bush said.
But underscoring that he
would not bow to those pushing for a quick U.S. withdrawal, Bush also said, “I’d like
our troops to come home, too,
but I want them to come home
with victory.”
In brief remarks, Rumsfeld
described the Iraq conflict as a
“little understood, unfamiliar
war” that is “complex for people to comprehend.” Upon his
return to the Pentagon after
appearing with Bush and
Gates, Rumsfeld said it was a
Former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld
good time for him to leave.
“It will be a different
Congress, a different environment, moving toward a presidential election and a lot of
partisanship, and it struck me
that this would be a good
thing
for
everybody,”
Rumsfeld told reporters.
There was little outward
reaction among officials at the
Pentagon, beyond surprise at
the abrupt announcement.
Asked whether Rumsfeld’s
departure signaled a new
direction in a war that has
claimed the lives of more than
2,800 U.S. troops and cost
more than $300 billion, Bush
said, “Well, there’s certainly
going to be new leadership at
the Pentagon.”
Voters appeared to be
telling politicians that the
sooner the war ends the better.
Surveys at polling places
showed that about six in 10
voters disapproved of the war
and only a third believed it
had improved long-term security in the United States.
Pentagon spokesman Bryan
Whitman said Rumsfeld was
not leaving immediately.
Rumsfeld planned to deliver a
speech on the global war on
terrorism at Kansas State
University on Thursday.
Just last week Bush told
reporters that he expected
Rumsfeld, 74, to remain until
the end of the administration’s
term. And although Bush said
Wednesday that his decision
to replace Rumsfeld was not
based on politics, the
announcement of a Pentagon
shake-up came on the heels of
Tuesday’s voting.
With his often-combative
defense of the war in Iraq,
Rumsfeld had been the administration’s face of the conflict.
He became more of a target —
and more politically vulnerable — as the war grew
increasingly unpopular at
home amid rising violence
and with no end in sight.
Sen. John Warner, R-Va.,
chairman of the Armed
Services Committee, said he
hopes to hold Gates’ confirmation hearings in time for
the Senate to approve his
nomination this year. But
Senate Democratic leader
Harry Reid of Nevada, whose
party would control the Senate
next year should it win the
remaining undecided race in
Virginia, said he had questions
about Gates’ ties to the IranContra scandal of the Reagan
administration.
Gates ran the CIA under the
first President Bush during the
first Gulf war. He retired from
government in 1993.
He joined the CIA in 1966
and is the only agency
employee to rise from an entry
level job to become director. A
native of Kansas, he made a
name for himself as an analyst
specializing in the former
Soviet Union and he served in
the intelligence community
for more than a quarter century, under six presidents.
Numerous Democrats in
Congress had been calling for
Rumsfeld’s resignation for
many months, asserting that
his management of the war
and of the military had been a
resounding failure. Critics
also accused Rumsfeld of not
fully considering the advice of
his generals and of refusing to
consider alternative courses of
action.
Sen. Carl Levin of
Michigan and Rep. Ike
Skelton of Missouri — the top
Democrats on the Armed
Services committees — said
the resignation would be a
positive step only if accompanied by a change in policy.
“I think it is critical that this
change be more than just a
different face on the old policy,” Skelton said.
Rumsfeld, 74, has served in
the job longer than anyone
except Robert McNamara,
who became secretary of
defense during the Kennedy
administration and remained
until 1968. Rumsfeld is the
only person to have served in
the job twice; his previous
tour was during the Ford
administration.
Rumsfeld had twice previously offered his resignation
to Bush — once during the
Abu Ghraib prisoner abuse
scandal in spring 2004 and
again shortly after that. Both
times the president refused to
let him leave.
Gates took over the CIA as
acting director in 1987, when
William Casey was terminally
ill with cancer. Questions
were raised about Gates’
knowledge of the Iran-Contra
affair, and he withdrew from
consideration to take over the
CIA permanently. Yet he
stayed on as deputy director.
Then-National
Security
Adviser Brent Scowcroft, who
has been a critic of the
younger Bush’s policies,
asked Gates to be his deputy
in 1989 during the administration of Bush’s father. The
elder President Bush, a former
CIA director himself, asked
Gates to run the CIA two
NOYO THEATRE
years later.
Gates won confirmation,
but only after hearings in
which he was accused by CIA
officials of manipulating intelligence as a senior analyst in
the 1980s.
Melvin Goodman, a former
CIA division chief for Soviet
affairs, testified that Gates
politicized the intelligence on
Iran, Nicaragua, Afghanistan
and the Soviet Union. “Gates’
role in this activity was to corrupt the process and the ethics
of intelligence on all of these
issues,” Goodman testified.
The Bush administration’s
use of intelligence on Iraq has
been a central theme of criticism from Democrats who say
the White House stretched
faulty intelligence from U.S.
spy agencies to justify invading Iraq in 2003.
Gates is a close friend of
the Bush family, and particularly the first President Bush.
He became the president of
Texas A&M University in
August 2002.
