San Francisco’s 1915 Panama-Pacific Exposition“But of course!” they replied.
W
hile the idea of having a
great exposition in San
Francisco occurred as early
as 1904, the Great Earthquake of 1906
shelved that plan.
By 1909, however, there had been so
much recovery in the city that hosting a
World’s Fair seemed worth pursuing,
with the double motive of celebrating
the opening of the Panama Canal and of
letting the world know that San
Francisco had been down and out, but
was now up and at ‘em.
Why link the City by the Bay with a
canal that hadn’t yet been built? Well,
suppose you were stuck on the East
Coast and you wanted to get to the West
Coast in the worst way? The worst way
was to board a ship and sail all the way
around Cape Horn, the tip of South
America, and up the west side of the
continent. It took forever. As early as the
16th century, the Spanish had the idea of
a canal across the Isthmus of Panama.
Didn’t happen. Then, in 1880, the
French Panama Canal Co., under the
direction of Ferdinand de Lesseps,
builder of the Suez Canal, undertook the
first attempt to construct a canal. “Can
you really do that?” they were asked.
After 10 years of yellow fever, malar-
ia, cholera and bankruptcy, maybe not.
Could the United States do it? “Yep, you
betcha!” Work began in 1904, and the
canal opened to traffic Aug. 15, 1914.
That trip you were planning from the
East Coast? Just saved yourself 8,000
nautical miles. And that World’s Fair in
San Francisco? Well worth the trip.
Several other cities also wanted to
host the fair, but some shrewd political
moves (the president talked up the loca-
tion) along with raising a substantial
war chest of funds, impressed the feder-
al government and Congress awarded
San Francisco the honor in February
1911. President William Taft invited all
nations to participate, although
Germany and England declined as they
were busy waging war in Europe.
France was too, but came to the fair any-
way. Thirty-one foreign countries
RSVP’d — and 21 built pavilions to
advertise their homelands.
The Marina District (called Harbor
View then) was chosen for the site.
Acres of lagoons and ponds had to be
filled in using 300,000 cubic yards of
dirt and mud dredged up from the Bay
(Fast forward to 1989’s Loma Prieta
earthquake and the liquefaction and dev-
astation that would take a toll on this
land-filled area).
President Taft came to San Francisco
for the groundbreaking in October 1911.
The 635-acre site had been “clear cut.”
Every house, business and factory was

were installed. Huge exhibition halls
were constructed, with steel and wood-
en frames, but covered with transient
materials made to look like the real
thing. Imitation tiles were used on the
roofs. All the structures, the utilities, the
landscaping, the transportation, every-
thing was completed in less than four
years.
One of the structures, the Palace of
Machinery, built of wood, was so huge it
had more than eight acres of floor space,
enough room for more than 2,000
exhibits, showing the latest inventions
of every kind of engine: Steam, gas,
diesel and even electric. While the
palace was being built, San Francisco
aviator, Lincoln Beechy, flew his tiny
airplane indoors, through the length of
the building. Both he and his plane
emerged unscathed. Later, after the fair
opened, Beechy took off in another
plane, an experimental monoplane, from
the lawn of the North Gardens that dou-
bled as an airfield for the fair. He made
it as far as the Bay where the plane nose-
dived into the water, killing Beechy,
sadly proving that old saying: There are
old pilots and there are bold pilots, but
there aren’t any old, bold pilots.
The exposition was so well planned
and the quality of the presentations so
extraordinary, it’s hard to single out just
a few. The Palace of Fine Arts, one of
the few to be saved, stood at the western
end of the exhibition halls, on the
army’s Presidio property, the land later

State brief
City official’s salary package topped $1.5M
LOS ANGELES — A former city manager’s huge $787,000
salary is only half of the unusually generous total compensa-
tion given to the official in the small California blue-collar city
of Bell, according to a city official.
Robert Rizzo’s benefits, which included 20 weeks paid vaca-
tion, brought his total annual compensation to more than $1.5
million, according to Josh Pulliam, an interim public informa-
tion officer for the city.
Rizzo was to receive $386,786 in paid vacation and sick bene-
fits this year, in addition to his base salary, and received deposits
to his investment accounts and other benefits, Pulliam said.
“As far as we can tell, it appears that Rizzo took home more
money in vacation compensation than any governor in the
United States makes for annual salary,” Pulliam said.

acquired by the city. Probably the most
talked-about structure was the Tower of
Jewels, some 430 feet tall. It was dec-
orated with more than 100,000 faceted
glass bangles called “novagems.” Each
of the multi-colored “gems” was
backed by a tiny mirror, hung one by
one on the building. They were a daz-
zling sight when they danced in the
breeze and when the lights played off
of them at night. After the fair closed,
the jewels were sold to eager collec-

There were a number of firsts at the

call was made when Alexander Graham
Bell rang up Thomas Watson. Henry
Ford set up an assembly line in the

out a new car every 10 minutes for three
hours every afternoon (except Sunday).
All 4,338 cars were sold before the fair
ended. Probably the most unusual guest

Lawmaker seeks to cut cost of sex-predator bill

By Don Thompson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO — A state law-
maker who wants to put certain
child molesters in prison for life
after a first offense is trying to
reduce the cost of his bill, which
comes with a sky-high price as the
state struggles with persistent budg-
et deficits.
Republican Assemblyman Nathan
Fletcher of San Diego has offered
several amendments to the legisla-
tion, some of which would save
money elsewhere in state correc-
tions spending. One includes allow-
ing many people convicted of petty
theft to serve their time in county
jails, rather than being sent to
prison.
“We want to focus on people
we’re afraid of and not people we’re
mad at, and we need to prioritize,”
Fletcher said.
The bill is to be considered by the
Senate Appropriations Committee
this week.
The legislation also adopts rec-
ommendations from the state’s Sex
Offender Management Board for
improving the monitoring of
paroled sex offenders, including the
routine use of
polygraph
examinations. It
also would base
the treatment
and supervision
of sex offenders
on the crime
they committed
Nathan Fletcher and the likeli-
hood they will
re-offend.
Fletcher said those reforms would
cut costs by reducing the number of
parolees who commit new crimes.
The bill, Chelsea’s Law, is named
after Chelsea King, a 17-year-old
who was murdered this year in San
Diego County. A convicted child
molester is serving a life sentence
for raping and killing King and 14-
year-old Amber Dubois.
The nonpartisan Legislative
Analyst’s Office determined the
increased prison terms and lifetime
parole monitoring under Fletcher’s
original bill eventually would cost
the state hundreds of millions of
dollars a year. The state Department
of Corrections and Rehabilitation
put the cost at tens of millions of
dollars annually after the first
decade.
In response, Fletcher amended
AB1844 to offset its cost. California
faces a $19 billion deficit and
remains without a budget more than
a month into its new fiscal year.
His bill now reserves life-with-
out-parole for adult offenders who
kidnap, drug, bind, torture or use a
weapon while committing a sex
crime against a child.
Fletcher also limited the bill’s
lifetime parole provision to habitual
sex offenders and those convicted of
such crimes as aggravated sexual
assault on a child. Those convicted
of other sex crimes involving chil-
dren would be monitored for 10 or
20 years after leaving prison,
depending on the severity of the
offense.
“There’s some significant cost
savings just in that. Lifetime parole
for a sex offender population, as
you can imagine, adds up,” said
Sen. Mark Leno, D-San Francisco.
Leno sits on the Appropriations
Committee and chairs the Public
Safety Committee, which negotiat-
ed the changes.
To save on corrections spending,
the bill has been amended to say
that most offenders convicted of a
repeat petty theft would be guilty of
a misdemeanor punishable by up to
a year in county jail. They would
have to be convicted of petty theft
four times before they could be sent
to state prison for a longer sentence.
The Department of Corrections
and Rehabilitation estimated that
would have kept more than 940
thieves out of prison over a recent
12-month period, at a cost of
$52,363 per inmate per year.
The California State Sheriffs’
Association is concerned that more
thieves will wind up in crowded
county jails, spokeswoman Karen
Pank said. However, the association
supports the rest of Fletcher’s bill.
Among other bills being consid-
ered in the Legislature this week:
• Lawmakers will consider delay-
ing an $11.1 billion water bond
measure until the 2012 ballot under
a bill pending in the Senate.
AB1265 would postpone the bond,
which is on the November ballot.
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, who
had promoted borrowing the money
to improve the state’s water storage
and delivery system, is seeking the
delay because the state faces a $19
billion budget gap. Delaying the
bond requires a two-thirds majority
vote in each chamber.
• The autopsy reports of murdered
children could be sealed from the
media and the public under a bill
before the Senate Appropriations
Committee on Monday. The legisla-
tion by Senate Minority Leader
Dennis Hollingsworth, R-Murrieta,
was prompted by slayings in
Northern California and San Diego
County. His SB982 would let fami-
ly members request that autopsy
reports and other evidence be sealed
permanently if their child was killed
during a crime. Media outlets
oppose the bill.
• Vehicles in California could be
equipped with video recording
devices on their windshields, under
a bill by Assemblyman Nathan
Fletcher, R-San Diego. AB1942
would permit devices that record in

Boy,14,suspected of starting L.A.-area wildfire

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SANTA CLARITA — A 14-year-old
boy has been booked on arson charges
after deputies said he confessed to acci-
dentally starting a 40-acre wildfire north
of Los Angeles as he was trying to
smoke marijuana.
LA County Sheriff’s Capt. Mike
Parker says two 14-year-old boys from
Saugus were detained just after the fire
that briefly threatened about 50 homes
was knocked down Sunday afternoon.
Parker says one of the boys was
released after the other boy said he start-
ed the fire when he dropped a barbecue
lighter as he was trying to light a pot
pipe.
Parker says the second boy had
showed up shortly after the fire started
and tried to help put it out, but the two
boys fled when they couldn’t control it.
Their names were withheld because of
their age.

Forced to retire,some take Social Security early
By Matt Sedensky
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MIAMI — Paul Skidmore’s office
is shuttered, his job gone, his 18-
month job search fruitless and his
unemployment benefits exhausted.
So at 63, he plans to file this week for
Social Security benefits, three years
earlier than planned.
“All I want to do is work,” said
Skidmore, of Finksburg, Md., who
was an insurance claims adjuster for
37 years before his company down-
sized and closed his office last year.
“And nobody will hire me.”

WASHINGTON — In Arizona,

of a Catholic nun in a car accident

The Benedictine Sisters of
Virginia tried to discourage using
the death of Sister Denise Mosier as
a “forum of the illegal immigration
agenda” and pleaded for a focus on
“Christ’s command to forgive.”
“The sisters’ mission is peace and

fall this year as a wave of people like
Skidmore opt to collect payments

Adding to the strain on the trust are

country’s historic unemployment —
still at 9.5 percent.
More people filed for Social
Security in 2009 — 2.74 million —
than any year in history, and there
was a marked increase in the number
receiving reduced benefits because
they filed ahead of their full retire-
ment age. The increase came as the

opted for early benefits in 2009, up
from 58 percent the previous year.
More women also filed — 74.7 per-
cent in 2009 compared with 64.2 per-
cent the previous year.
Jason Fichtner, an associate com-
missioner at the Social Security
Administration, said the weak econo-

their jobs to retire early. However, it
also has forced some people hard-hit
by the recession and in need of a big-

and stay in the work force longer.
“But we’re seeing more people tak-

wasn’t giving it to me,” she said. “I
just went online and, boom, three

Suicide car bomber kills eight
By Saad Abdul-Kadir

BAGHDAD — A suicide car
bomber struck a police patrol west of
Baghdad Sunday and killed eight
people, most of them civilians stand-
ing in line outside a post office to col-
lect the monthly stipend for the coun-
try’s poorest, police officials said.
The blast comes just a day after
explosions tore through a market in
the south killing 43 people. Violence
across Iraq has spiked in the past
month as the U.S. moves ahead with a
major drawdown of its troops set to be
completed by the end of the month.
The increase in violence and the
U.S. pullout have raised concerns
about whether Iraqi security forces
are up to the job of keeping militants
from destabilizing the country further
at a time of political uncertainty over
who will form the next government.

‘Open up that Golden Gate,California here we come ...’
T
he California High-Speed
Rail Authority met in the
Milton Marks Conference
Center of the new state office
building on Golden Gate in San
Francisco Thursday. The hearing
was not held on the bridge, but a
street so named. However, the
Golden Gate Bridge was mentioned
by several speakers.
One suggested that the High-
Speed Rail Authority should heed
the bridge’s history. Originally an
unattractive but less expensive ver-
sion of the Golden Gate was
planned. But visionaries prevailed.
Millions more were spent — even
though it was the Depression —
and thus generations have enjoyed
the beautiful landmark we have
today. It follows we can have high-
speed rail and the improvements,
mainly tunnels or trenches with
covers, to avoid the nasty impacts
if only we spend more than we
already have. But money may not
be the only impediment.
Engineering and land acquisition
constraints may prevail.
Others, primarily from Atherton,
who have tried to change the route
to bypass their city and who have
hired expensive lawyers to under-
mine the project, put it more blunt-
ly. If you can’t build it right, don’t
build it.
Folks from Burlingame and San
Mateo attempted to be more concil-
iatory although they were not satis-
fied with the alternatives presented
— no tunnels, no extensive cut and
cover for their cities, and in most
sections open trenches, at grade
crossings and the unacceptable aer-
ial viaducts and berms. While San
Carlos Councilman Omar Ahmad
indicated his city had learned to
live with a berm grade separation
and it was a spur to economic
development Belmont’s mayor
insisted her city hated their over-

pass and must have a tunnel.
The meeting started shortly after
9 a.m. and was still going at 1 p.m.
But by the noon hour, much of the
audience had departed (including a
few board members) and the
authority members who remained
had that dazed and hungry look
after four hours of non-stop public
testimony.
This is not how they do things in
China, our most formidable com-
petitor. While we have been talk-
ing, revisiting plans and gathering
public input, the Chinese have been
extending their high-speed rail sys-
tem and have managed to erect a
couple of major bridges at the same
time. It makes you wonder how
any major public works project was
ever built in our country and
whether we will ever have high-
speed rail in California.
As a member of the Metropolitan
Transportation Commission, I have
witnessed the construction and/or
planning of many projects includ-
ing BART to SFO and the new east
span of the Bay Bridge ( to be
completed in 1213?). I have
learned that there is always public
opposition. Some of it worthy.
Some of it not. The project always
cost more than the designers said it
would. There is always lack of
funding to build the project right
but somehow the money is found to
do what is considered right by the
powers that be. There are always
delays and setbacks. But somehow
the project gets built. Maybe not in
the way I or others would prefer
but it gets built. Not as quickly as
in China, but it happens. Years

pass, people use and become
accustomed to it and miraculously
most of the bad history is either
buried or forgotten. So it shall hap-
pen with high-speed rail. It is, as
the saying goes, too big to fail. And
too important for Silicon Valley,
San Francisco, Los Angeles, San
Jose and the state of California.
And for the Peninsula, high-speed
rail is necessary to pay for an elec-
trified and grade separated Caltrain.
***
Does this mean Peninsula resi-
dents will not get what they want?
It’s too early to tell. One thing they
might get is delay. Authority mem-
bers pointed out the project will be
built in phases, according to the
funds available. If Caltrain is suc-
cessful in obtaining federal funds
for electrification, a beefed-up baby
bullet service between San Jose
and San Francisco could act as a
link while other parts of the line in
the Central Valley and Southern
California are built. But, with a
brand new state-of-the-art Transbay
Terminal opening in San Francisco,
there is no way high-speed rail will
end in San Jose. On the other hand,
delay could make things worse. If
the Anaheim section gets the first
crack at federal money while the
controversial Peninsula leg is last
in line, there may be much less to
do much more.
***
As for the Golden Gate Bridge, it
had troubles and opponents too.
The first serious design was pro-
posed in 1916. Twenty-one years
later, in 1937, the bridge was com-
pleted. Experts said it couldn’t be
built across the strait because tides
and currents were too swift and
strong; ferocious winds and blind-
ing fog would prevent construction
and operation. And the opponents
included the Department of War,
unions who wanted to hire local
labor and Southern Pacific who
feared competition for its ferry
fleet. The original construction
budget approved by voters was for
$30.1 million. But the district was
unable to sell the bonds until A.P.
Giannini came to the rescue and
had his bank buy the entire issue to
help the economy. The project cost
more than $35 million.
***
Vice Mayor Terry Nagel reports
that Burlingame may consider a car
share program in the fall. Two
years ago, the council did not pur-
sue this cost- and energy-saving
option. They are expecting bids
from a number of car rental agen-
cies.

Recusal means more
than not voting
Editor,
In his column “Foust got tan-
gled” in the Aug. 4 edition of the
Daily Journal Jon Mays states,
“But make no mistake, just
because she will recuse herself
from votes, does not mean she
won’t lobby for her point of view
as this proposal makes its way
through Redwood City’s council
chambers.” Not true; the law on
recusal prohibits a recused elected
official from both voting on and
lobbying their colleagues on the
issue from which they were
recused. The law quite properly
assumes that an elected official
has an inherently better opportu-
nity to influence her peers than
does the general public and there-
fore prohibits them from using
that influence when they are
recused.
Here is part of the FPPC guid-
ance: “Public officials specified in
section 87200 of the Government
Code, such as council members,
planning commissioners, and
boards of supervisors, must pub-
licly identify in detail the eco-
nomic interest that creates the
conflict, step down from the dais
and must then leave the room.
This identification must be fol-
lowing the announcement of the
agenda item to be discussed or
voted upon, but before either the
discussion or vote commences.”
“A public official may speak as a
member of the general public only
when the economic interest that is
the basis for the conflict is a per-
sonal economic interest, for
example, his or her personal resi-
dence or wholly owned business.”
The FPPC gives this example
“Planning Commissioner Garcia
is a greater than 10 percent part-
ner in an engineering firm. The
firm represents a client who is an
applicant on a project pending
before the planning commission.
Commissioner Garcia must pub-
licly disclose that the applicant is
a source of income to her requir-
ing her recusal. Commissioner
Garcia must step down from the
dais and leave the room. Since
this is not a personal interest that
is the basis for the conflict, she
may not sit in the public area and
listen to the discussion.”

Put aesthetics aside
on high-speed rail
Editor,
I am a resident at San Mateo
and I am outraged at the amount
of time it takes for HSR project to
make any headway.
Let’s face realities people, we
live in a bankrupt state, we live in
a country that for years has spent
a lot more money than tax rev-
enue could bring in. Yet we con-
tinue to bicker over how to build a
railroad. We want to it be pretty,
we want it noiseless, etc... Come
on people, travel to any country in
the world (country with a viable
public transit option) and take a
look at how pretty (or not) their
high-speed rail is.You will find
that other countries placed effi-
ciency and cost controls over our
“albatross” desires.
Do you realize that in most
countries in Eastern Europe, rail-
roads are actual moneymakers for
local governments? How long do
you think we will be paying for
the $40B railroad project? The
objective we gave to High-Sped
Rail Authority is simple, make the
transit option work for people so
more people can come and live
and invest in our cities and busi-
nesses. Let’s stop making every-
thing pretty, rather make every-
thing we do functional and effi-
cient.

added table games like poker and
blackjack to its nine slot-machine casi-

Woman in HP scandal ‘surprised and saddened’
By Jordan Robertson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — The woman at
the center of the sexual harassment
claim that forced the resignation of
Hewlett-Packard Co. CEO Mark Hurd
revealed her identity Sunday and said
she is “surprised and saddened” that
Hurd lost his job.
The woman, Jodie Fisher, 50, knew
Hurd through her job as a greeter and
organizer for HP networking events for
customers and executives from 2007 to
2009.
She has also worked as a saleswoman,
an executive at a commercial real estate
company, and as an actress. She
the busy Interstate 95 corridor — this
fall; and Delaware’s three racetrack
casinos started offering table games this
summer.
The consequences of saturation could
be debilitating: Companies are invest-
ing billions of dollars chasing ever-
smaller slices of the gambling pie while
governments are banking on additional
tax revenue from new casinos and gam-
blers’ winnings to help run operations
and ward off tax hikes.
States talk openly of poaching gam-
blers from their neighboring states and
view keeping their own residents’
money within state borders as some-
thing akin to a religious duty.
“Government wants free money, and
the casino industry for years has repre-
sented and provided free money to
them,” said Tom Carver, executive
director of New Jersey’s Casino
Reinvestment Development Authority.
“The attraction is, ‘Our citizens are
going to a casino somewhere else and
spending money that should stay within
our borders, so we need our own casi-
nos.’ But people are running out of dis-
posable income.”

it fertile ground for more casinos, with
little risk of saturation.
The average gambler spends $108 at
a casino visit — an amount roughly
unchanged over 30 years, an American
Gaming Association survey found.
States tax gambling revenue at rates
ranging from 6.75 percent in Nevada to
55 percent in Pennsylvania.
Relying too much on casinos can be
risky. In 2006, New Jersey’s 11 casinos
forked over more than a half-billion
dollars in state taxes. Last year, that
dropped to $312 million and the state
expects a further drop this year to about
$275 million.
In Pennsylvania, an hour’s drive from
Atlantic City, casinos logged their best-
ever month in July for gross slots rev-
enue — $211.1 million, of which $116
million is state taxes. And that take
doesn’t reflect new table game rev-
enues, yet unreported.
It’s believed those table games that
began play in July boosted the record
month for slots, a spokesman for the
Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board
said.
Adding table games “really was a
goal of the governor to keep the gam-
bling dollars in the commonwealth,”
said Doug Harbach.
That claim set off the chain of events
that led to the discovery of allegedly fal-
sified expense reports for dinners Hurd
had with the woman and culminated in
Hurd’s forced resignation Friday from
the world’s largest technology company.
Fisher said her intention in filing the
claim wasn’t for Hurd to lose his job.
She acknowledged that she and Hurd
have settled the matter privately. A per-
son familiar with the case told The
Associated Press that Hurd agreed to pay
Fisher but would not reveal the size of
the payment.
“I was surprised and saddened that
Mark Hurd lost his job over this,” she
said. “That was never my intention.”

Mahan wins at Firestone Braves

Woods,Mickelson have bad days Sunday; Mahan earns Ryder Cup spot
By Doug Ferguson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
AKRON, Ohio — Hunter Mahan is doing
things he never imagined possible, on and off
the golf course.
He thought it was “crazy talk” when friends
told him he would know immediately when
he fell in love, until he met former Dallas
Cowboys cheerleader Kandi Harris in
December and proposed to her in June.
How about beating Tiger Woods by 30
shots at Firestone?
“I never, ever thought that would be possi-
ble,” Mahan said Sunday, stifling a laugh at
the absurdity of it all. “It never crossed my
mind. It’s definitely different.”
Some six hours after
Woods finished off the
worst tournament of his
career, Mahan looked bet-
ter than ever in the
Bridgestone Invitational.
He ran off five birdies on
the front nine to make up
a four-shot deficit, deliv-
Tiger Woods ered three clutch pars
down the stretch to pro-
tect his lead and closed with a 6-under 64 for
a two-shot victory over Ryan Palmer that
brought plenty of perks.
Mahan earned $1.4 million to lock up a
spot on the U.S. Ryder Cup team, one of his
primary goals this year.
He won his first World Golf Championship
title and moved to No. 12 in the world rank-
ing, a big step toward joining the elite in golf.
And he won for the second time this year,
becoming the fifth player this year with mul-
tiple victories on the PGA Tour.
“The last couple of weeks, the game has
been good,” said Mahan, who won the
Phoenix Open in February by shooting 65 in
the final round. “I knew it was there. I know I
just had to keep going and keep trust it. This
weekend, I definitely just kind of let every-
thing go and just had some fun.”
It was anything but that for Woods.
He had won seven times in his last nine
starts at Firestone. He had not shot over par
since 2006. But in a week that showed just
how lost he is amid a personal life in chaos,
Woods shot 77 on Sunday to finish at 18-over
298. It was his highest score on the PGA Tour
as a professional or an amateur. He tied for
78th in the 80-man field, his worst finish ever.
He wasn’t even sure if he was worthy for
the Ryder Cup.
“No one would help the team if they’re
shooting 18-over par,” Woods said before fly-
ing up to Whistling Straits to sneak in a prac-
tice round for the PGA Championship next
week.

Giants
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ATLANTA — David Ross made the most of
a rare start Sunday.
Ross hit a two-run homer and Derek Lowe
pitched into the sixth inning before leaving
with an injury, leading the Atlanta Braves to a
6-3 victory over the San Francisco Giants.
The Braves have All-Star catcher Brian
McCann, so Ross doesn’t play much. But he is
hitting .284 with 20 RBIs in 37 games, 24
starts, this season. He also walked and scored
Atlanta’s final run on Melky Cabrera’s single
in the eighth.
“I finally ran into one,” Ross said of his first
homer of the season, a drive to left during
Atlanta’s three-run second. “Guys were giving
me a (hard time) so I got that off my chest,
finally. I thought I was getting too old, that I
didn’t have any pop anymore.”
Lowe (11-9) was bothered by cramping in
his hamstring. The right-hander allowed two
runs and five hits in 5 1-3 innings.
Lowe said he also had some cramps in his
right arm in the fourth inning but he would not
miss his next start.
“The whole right leg was cramping,” he said.
Four relievers combined to finish up, with
Takashi Saito tossing a scoreless ninth for his
first save of the season.
Omar Infante hit a solo homer for Atlanta,
which won three of four in the series and has
won four of five overall. The NL East-leading
Braves also improved their major league-best
home record to 39-15 and maintained a two-
game lead over Philadelphia, which beat the
New York Mets 6-5.
Jonathan Sanchez (8-7) pitched four innings
for the Giants, yielding four runs and five hits.
The left-hander was coming off a strong per-
formance against Colorado, when he threw six
effective innings in a 10-0 victory.
The full-count pitch to Ross “was a sinker
away,” Sanchez said. “He killed it. That’s base-
ball. You can’t expect to win all the games.”
Infante made it 4-1 with a drive to left in the
fourth for his third homer.
Alex Gonzalez also drove in a run with a
sacrifice fly and Melky Cabrera had an RBI
single for Atlanta, which finished with 12 hits.
Cabrera went 3 for 5.
Juan Uribe hit an RBI double in the second

Lunde rallies to win Turning Stone Championship

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
VERONA, N.Y. — Less than
five years after Bill Lunde quit
competitive golf, he earned a spot
in next week’s PGA Championship
by winning the Turning Stone
Resort Championship on Sunday.
Lunde shot 6-under 66 and ral-
lied for the come-from-behind vic-
tory with a 17-under 271 total on
the 7,482-yard Atunyote Golf Club
layout. He earned $720,000, a PGA
Tour exemption through the end of
2012 and 250 FedEx Cup points
for his first PGA Tour win in 53
career starts.
“I started driving it really well,

said. “So that Teater, Michael Sim, Billy Mayfair

177 yards stopped 4 feet from the
pin and he made the short birdie
putt to take the lead for good. He
parred the last two holes to clinch
the win.
None of the success seemed pos-
sible to Lunde in 2005 when he
stopped playing after a tough year
on the Nationwide Tour. He went
to the PGA’s Q-School in
November and didn’t qualify for
the second stage. He found a job in
real estate in Las Vegas, but was let
go and eventually found his way on
to the Butch Harmon Tour.
Lunde made it back to the
Nationwide Tour in 2008 and took
advantage of his second chance. He
won the Nationwide Children’s
Hospital Invitational that year and
finished fifth on the money list,
which earned him a spot on the
PGA Tour in 2009.
“I tried to make an agreement
with myself when I started playing
again to ... if I could just have a
better attitude right off the bat, I’d
become a better player than I ever
was before,” he said. “And that was
kind of my goal. Obviously it does-

nitely better than it was and some-

the 3M Championship
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BLAINE, Minn. — Midway through his
final round, the only question was if David
Frost could set a 3M Championship scoring
record.
He did so with his final stroke.
Frost made a 25-foot putt for eagle on the
18th hole to finish an 11-under 61 on Sunday
and win the title in record-setting fashion.
“The hole got in the way, I guess, but it was
really a nice way to cap it off,” he said.
It is the first career Champions Tour win for
Frost, whose 25-under 191 was two shots bet-
ter than the previous tournament scoring
record set by R.W. Eaks in 2008. His final-
round score beat by one the tournament’s pre-
vious lowest round set by Dana Quigley in
2008.
Frost also tied the tour scoring record for a
54-hole tournament. His 191 total tied Bruce
Fleisher’s mark at the 2002 Vantage
Championship and matched by Loren Roberts
at the 2006 MasterCard Championship at
Hualalai and Bernhard Langer at the 2007
Administaff Small Business Classic. Roberts
and Langer were 25 under; Fleisher was 19
under on a par-70 course.
“Twenty-five under? That’s ridiculous. This
course ain’t that easy,” said Mark Calcavecchia,
who was tied with Frost for the 36-hole lead,
but finished five shots behind in second after a
4 under 68 at the TPC Twin Cities.
Frost shot a 7-under 29 on the front side to
pull away from the field. He birdied the first
two holes and eagled the par-5 third, knocking
a 3-wood from 255 yards to about 3 feet from
the hole.
Phil Mickelson looked just as bad Sunday.
With his best chance ever to replace Woods at
No. 1 in the world — Mickelson was tied for
10th and needed to finish alone in fourth —
the Masters champion sprayed shots all over
Firestone on his way to a 78.
It was the first time since the 1998 British
Open that Woods and Mickelson both shot 77
or higher in the same round.
“It was a rough day, if you couldn’t tell,” he
said.
For Mahan, it was mostly smooth sailing.
His 64 was the lowest final round by a win-
ner since the Bridgestone Invitational became
a WGC event in 1999.
“This is one of the bigger tournaments we
play all year,” Mahan said. “And it’s definite-
ly the best win of my career.”
The birdies were brilliant. The pars won
him the tournament.
“I knew if I didn’t make a bogey I’d be all
right,” said Mahan, who finished at 12-under
268.
The 28-year-old still managed to make it
interesting, especially on the par-5 16th,
which always seems to factor in this tourna-
ment. It’s where Woods has delivered so
many pivotal shots over the years, where
Padraig Harrington took an 8 in the final
round last year.
Mahan was in the fairway, 227 yards away
on a hole that had been shortened to 602 yards
for the final round. He figured the only place
he couldn’t miss was short — in the pond. To
That’s where he went, over the bleachers,
over everything, and into a flower bed.
Because it was deemed to be part of the
cement cart path complex, he was given a free
drop in the walkway to the 17th tee. He
played it safe, chipping through the green and
into the fairway, then putted to 3 feet to save
par.
Before that, he holed a 15-foot par on the
15th. On the next hole, he saved his most
intense fist pump for an 8-foot par on the
17th.
Palmer couldn’t catch him.
Two shots behind, he missed a 12-foot
birdie on the 16th and a 20-footer on the 17th
to end his hopes. Palmer closed with a 69.
“I can’t be disappointed,” Palmer said. “I
played good today being under the gun.
You’ve got to hand it to Hunter Mahan. He
went out and did what I expected somebody
to do, and shot a low round. I didn’t lose the
golf tournament.”
Retief Goosen, the 36-hole leader until a
triple bogey on the opening hole Saturday,
closed with a 65 and tied for third with Bo
Van Pelt, who shot a 67. Sean O’Hair, who
shared the 54-hole lead with Palmer, shot 71
and wound up alone in fifth.
Since winning in Phoenix, Mahan had only
one top 10 and missed four straight cuts. Part
of that might have been related to proposing
to his fiancee at Pebble Beach a week before
the U.S. Open, and planning for a wedding in
January.
Indeed, this is shaping up to be quite a year.

Cowboys beat Bengals 16-7

By Barry Wilner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CANTON, Ohio — Terrell Owens chatted
amiably with his former Cowboys team-
mates. Chad Ochocinco wore gold shoes for
his few plays.
Otherwise, the Cincinnati Bengals barely
were noticeable Sunday night as Dallas won
16-7 in the Hall of Fame game.
In a game that might have made Class of
2010 inductees Emmitt Smith and Jerry Rice
wince, the offenses generally sputtered and
there were eight sacks. Neither team could
get going with the ball in a sloppy affair.
Clearly, none of the aura of the NFL’s career
leaders in rushing and receiving rubbed off.
At least some of Saturday’s other inductees
— the ones who played defense, Dick
LeBeau, John Randle and Rickey Jackson —
could appreciate the lack of scoring and the
takeaways. Dallas picked off three passes and
recovered a fumble; Cincinnati also recov-
ered a fumble.
Nobody could be impressed by the slew of
penalties, 16 overall, 12 by Cincinnati for 90
yards. Then again, it was the preseason open-
er.
The Cowboys hope this is the opening step,
small as it was, toward becoming the first
team to play in a Super Bowl in its home sta-
dium. That goal will take months before it
can be achieved, of course, and the most
memorable item this weekend for them will
remain Smith’s entry into the Hall of Fame.
“Having Emmitt inducted into the Hall of
Fame is special,” All-Pro linebacker
DeMarcus Ware said. “For us now playing
Cincinnati Bengals wide receivers Terrell Owens (81) and Chad Ochocinco (85) stand on the
sidelines prior to the start of the Cowboys AFC-NFC Hall of Fame Game against the Cincinnati
Bengals in Canton,Ohio Sunday.

cial.”
Most of the regulars worked short shifts. At
least the Cowboys’ starters looked sharp dur-
ing their minimal stints.

with a steady opening drive before they
stalled and David Buehler kicked a 20-yard
field goal. Romo was 5 for 10 for 59 yards.
“You just have to continue to work on the
things we’ve been doing through the offsea-
son and in training camp,” Romo said.
“You’re never sure until you get into a game-
like mode, and some of the new stuff, it was
nice to see it work out really well. It’s a start.
We have to build off of it, but we still have a
ways to go, and we’re on the way.”
Dallas certainly needs better protection for
its quarterbacks after Cincinnati had five
sacks, including two by linebacker Michael
Johnson.
The Bengals made plenty of offseason
news with the additions of Owens and
Pacman Jones, who was not signed by any
teams last year because of his previous off-
field issues and missed the season. Neither
former Cowboy had much impact, although
Owens caught two passes for 18 yards and
was thrown to four times by Carson Palmer.
“We’re a work in progress,” Owens said.
“We’re getting there. It felt just like practice.”
It often looked like it, as well.
Buehler added field goals of 34 yards in the
second quarter and 23 yards in the third. The
last kick was set up when linebacker Brandon
Williams returned an interception of Jordan
Palmer — Carson’s younger brother and
Cincinnati’s third-string quarterback — 36
yards to the Bengals 9-yard line.
Dallas capped the one-sided victory when
Brandon Sharpe picked off Jordan Palmer’s
fourth-quarter pass and dived untouched into
the end zone for a 6-yard score.
Bengals rookie Jordan Shipley ran back a
punt 63 yards in the final minutes, and Jordan
Palmer hit rookie tight end Darius Hill for a
1-yard TD with 51 seconds remaining.
Cincinnati’s best player was punter Kevin
Huber, who averaged 46.4 yards on 10
punts.

Davis establishing himself on 49ers offensive line

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SANTA CLARA — One week
of training camp with the San
Francisco 49ers has been enough
for Anthony Davis to establish
himself as the team’s starting right
tackle.
That was the plan all along when
the 49ers traded up in the draft this
spring to take Davis with the No.
11 overall selection. As the team
took a break from the summer
grind Sunday with one brief walk-
through in shorts, the rookie from
Rutgers is already ahead of sched-
ule.
“I never thought about not being
able to do it,” the first team ahead of incumbent
Davis said. Adam Snyder.

increased as the week progressed Davis has been doing all the right
to the point Davis spent both of things as far as learning the play-
Saturday’s practice sessions with book and getting his body in condi-
tion for the rigors of a NFL season.
He has trimmed down his 6-foot-5
frame to 323 pounds by changing
his diet, and describes himself as in
the “best shape I’ve ever been.”
Davis appears to be the leading
candidate to be San Francisco’s
starting right tackle for the season
opener, just like Staley was three
years ago. He went on to start all
16 games, and is now entrenched
as the team’s starting left tackle.
Davis wasn’t the only rookie
offensive lineman to make his
mark during San Francisco’s first
week of practice. Mike Iupati,
drafted six picks after Davis with
the No. 17 overall selection, moved
into the starting lineup at left guard
after incumbent David Baas was
injured Monday.
Baas returned to practice after
missing several days with a con-
cussion, but Iupati remained in the
starting lineup. The two rookie
lineman will be difficult to budge if
they progress.
“They’ve both been impressive
early on from a physical stand-
point,” offensive coordinator
Jimmy Raye said. “They’re athletic
with big bodies, and I don’t see any
reason why they won’t continue to
ascend as they get more familiar
with the language and system of
football we’re playing.”

Castroneves keeps it clean at Mid-Ohio Montoya wins
By Will Graves

LEXINGTON, Ohio — Helio
Castroneves kept his hands — and his
car for the most part — to himself on

throwing a tantrum that ended with the
Brazilian being placed on probation and
fined $60,000, Castroneves put together
a quiet third-place finish.
“Obviously, I’m on probation so I
have to behave myself,” Castroneves
said with a laugh.
The race, however, wasn’t totally inci-
dent free. Castroneves and Team Penske
teammate Ryan Briscoe ended up sand-
wiching Ryan Hunter-Reay while exit-
ing the pits early in the race.
Castroneves felt the two cars collide
and thought his race was over. Hardly.
Instead it appeared to make his No. 3
Honda better.
“From there on, it was great,” he said.
Castroneves spent the last half of the
race following winner Dario Franchitti
and teammate Will Power, the same
driver he tried to cut off in Edmonton
two weeks ago. Could Castroneves have
made a run for the lead? Maybe, but he
wasn’t going to push it.
“I was just being sensible, just trying
to make sure that I didn’t make anything
bad, especially when (Power) has so
much lead on the championship,”
Castroneves said. “I could push, but I
have to be a little more cautious.”
MILKA MISCUES: IndyCar offi-
cials put Milka Duno on probation two
weeks ago, telling her she needs to get
up to speed if she wants to be allowed to
compete in the series.
If the officials thought the message
would keep Duno out of trouble, they
were wrong.
Duno started from the back of the 27-
car field after being held out of qualify-
ing on Saturday but still found a way to
mix it up. She was nearing the final turn
on the 2.258-mile circuit midway
through the race when Power and
Team Penske driver Helio Castroneves kept it clean at MId-Ohio Sunday.
Castroneves came up behind her. Both
struggled to slip past, with Castroneves
making a late turn into the pits to avoid
a mishap.
“She was hard to predict what she’s
going to do,” Power said. “Luckily I got
by her.”
Yet the bobble also allowed Franchitti
to slightly extend his lead on his way to
victory.
“That sort of ruined any chance I had
of passing him in the pits during the pit
stop,” Power said. “Don’t know what
else to say.”
RAHAL vs. BRISCOE: Ryan
Briscoe’s budding rivalry with Graham
Rahal is on hold.
For now anyway.
The two IndyCar drivers managed to
avoid each other during Sunday’s race,
their first time being on the track togeth-
er since a dustup in Toronto last month.
Briscoe and Rahal were battling for sev-
enth midway through the race when
Rahal ran into the back of Briscoe,
sending Briscoe’s No. 6 car into the
wall.
It sparked a war of words, with
Briscoe taking to his twitter account to
criticize Rahal. Rahal responded a few
days later on a blog. They haven’t exact-
ly patched things up.
SPORTS
REUTERS
“I wasn’t really expecting him to
apologize and he didn’t, so I don’t care,
whatever,” Briscoe said.
Rahal maintains he didn’t do anything
wrong, but didn’t take it personally
when Briscoe called him a “part-time
driver.” The 21-year-old son of Indy 500
champion Bobby Rahal signed a deal to
return to Newman/Haas racing last
month. He doesn’t see the little mini-
squabble with Briscoe as bad for busi-
ness.
“I think it’s been good recently for the
IndyCar Series,” Rahal said. “People
say the opposite but you know there’s
been a lot of attention that’s paid to the
battles that we’re having with each
other. I think that’s good to see.”
Maybe, but there was no drama on
Sunday, mostly because the two drivers
spent most of the race so far away from
each other. Briscoe ended up sixth while
Rahal was 20th.
SARAH SPEAKS: Sarah Fisher’s to-
do list is shorter than it used to be. Her
wish list, however, just keeps getting
longer.
The IndyCar driver/owner spent the
last six weeks trying to get her small
racing program ready to complete the
season after taking a break during a
stretch of road races.
THE DAILY JOURNAL
Watkins Glen
By John Kekis
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. — Juan Pablo Montoya finally had
a race without a mistake, and he proved invincible.
The hard-driving Colombian erased 113 races of futility
Sunday, winning a duel with Marcos Ambrose and the Sprint
Cup race at Watkins Glen International.
“It’s about time,” Montoya said after celebrating with his
crew in Victory Lane. “We’ve lost a lot of them, gave away a
lot of them. It gets frustrating, everybody fighting. There’s so
many things I have to learn. I still make a lot of mistakes. It’s
experience. We’ve just got to learn from it.”
Frustration mounted when crew chief Brian Pattie’s pit
strategy backfired at the previous two races. A late four-tire
call likely cost Montoya a win at the Brickyard 400, and he
finished 16th a week ago at Pocono after starting second,
another questionable pit call the culprit that led to harsh
words over the radio.
A prerace talk at Watkins Glen with team co-owner Chip
Ganassi helped clear the air. Montoya went out, withstood
repeated stalking and challenges from Ambrose and won
going away.
Montoya led 74 of 90 laps and beat Kurt Busch to the line
by nearly 5 seconds for his second career victory, the other
coming on NASCAR’s other road course at Sonoma in 2007,
113 races ago. Montoya gave Earnhardt Ganassi racing just
its third victory of the season.
Ambrose was third, his third straight top-three finish at
Watkins Glen, followed by AJ Allmendinger and pole-sitter
Carl Edwards. Jamie McMurray, Tony Stewart, Kyle Busch,
Jeff Burton and Jeff Gordon rounded out the top 10.
It was the first career victory for Pattie, who fought back
tears after watching the No. 42 take the checkered flag.
“It’s huge,” Pattie said. “I still want to win on an oval. He
wants to prove his point. The Brickyard was my fault. Hope
this makes up for it. Trophies mean a lot. It’s pretty cool.”
Montoya made the Chase for the Sprint Cup last year, made
a strong run early in the 10-race postseason, and finished
eighth in points. His chances of making the Chase this year
vanished early. He’s failed to finish seven of the first 21 races
and is well out of contention.
“Last year, we were so hung up on making the Chase that it
was all about numbers, it wasn’t about being fast or slow,”
said Montoya, who dominated the 2009 Brickyard 400, only
to lose a chance at his first victory on an oval by speeding on
pit road. “It was about bringing the car home every week.
“This year, we thought we were going to do the same thing.
But by race five, we had three DNFs. Then you’ve got to be
realistic about what’s going to happen. I started being aggres-
sive, and a lot mistakes came. I think this will really bring the
team together. It’s a great thing for the future.”
Ambrose won his third straight Nationwide race over the
11-turn, 2.45-mile Watkins Glen layout on Saturday. He was
poised to capture his first Sprint Cup victory at Sonoma in
June when things went awry. He stalled his No. 47 while lead-
ing under a late caution, was unable to keep pace, had to
restart seventh when he couldn’t get it refired and finished
sixth.

Rice and Smith enter Hall of Fame
By Barry Wilner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CANTON, Ohio — Jerry Rice
and Emmitt Smith can stop the
chase now.
Linked as the NFL’s leading
receiver and rusher, two of the
greatest players football has seen
entered the Hall of Fame on
Saturday night. Both admitted their
destinies are fulfilled.
“This is finally it,” Rice said.
“There are no more routes to run, no
more touchdowns to score, no more
records to set. That young boy from
Mississippi has finally stopped run-
ning.
“Let me stand here and catch my
breath.”
An hour later, Smith tried to hold
back his tears as he reflected on his
unequaled career.
“Most people only dream,” Smith
said. “I not only had my childhood
dream, I did everything I could to
fulfill it.
“You know what, I am now the
all-time leading rusher. ’Wow. What
an honor.”
Strongest group ever?
Rice was the man who took away
everyone’s breath during an incred-
ible 20 years and was one of seven
NFL greats to enter the shrine as the
Class of 2010. It is one of the
strongest groups ever inducted, also
including John Randle, Dick
LeBeau, Rickey Jackson, Russ
Grimm and Floyd Little.
Rice holds every important pass-
catching record as the game breaker
in the West Coast offense for the
San Francisco 49ers. In becoming
the top target in the pro game’s most
dangerous scheme, he established
marks that might never be broken.
Rice caught 1,549 passes, more
than 400 beyond anyone else. He
gained 22,895 yards, more than
7,600 ahead of second place. He
scored 208 touchdowns, easily shat-
tering the previous record. He made
10 All-Pro teams, was chosen for 13
Pro Bowls, and made receptions in
an almost-unimaginable 274 con-
secutive games.
Yet, he says, at 47, “I still believe
in my heart I could play today.”
Former San Francisco 49er Jerry Rice stands with his bust after being
accepted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton,Ohio Saturday.
Looking as fit as any current All-
Pro, Rice admits he made one major
mistake during that unparalleled
career.
“My single regret about my career
is I never took the time to enjoy it,”
he said. “I was always working.
“I was afraid to fail. The fear of
failure is the engine that has driven
me my entire life. The reason they
never caught me from behind is
because I ran scared. People always
are surprised how insecure I was.
The doubts, the struggles, is who I
am. I wonder if I would have been
as successful without them.”
Rice was successful from Day 1
in the NFL, rising from the obscuri-
ty of Mississippi Valley State to win
three Super Bowls and change the
game forever. He was humbled by
the conclusion Saturday night.
“I can honestly say this is the
SPORTS
REUTERS
greatest team I have ever belonged
to,” Rice said.
Smith began choking up during a
one-minute standing ovation as he
stepped to the microphone as the
final inductee. He immediately
praised Walter Payton, the man he
surpassed as rushing king, and rec-
ognized the two other Hall of Fame
members of the Cowboys’ Triplets,
Troy Aikman and Michael Irvin.
And he broke down when saluting
his former fullback, Daryl Johnston.
“You took care of me as if you
were taking care of your little broth-
er,” Smith said through wet eyes.
Smith rushed for 18,355 yards,
with 164 touchdowns, 11 seasons
with 1,000 or more yards on the
ground, and 78 games with 100
yards rushing.
Smith made the hall in his first
year of eligibility and won three
Super Bowls, taking MVP honors in
the 1994 game.
“When I go into the hall today, I
am not going in alone,” Smith said.
“I am carrying my grandfather, I’m
carrying my father and I’m carrying
my son along with me because I
bear all their names. Now I can say
to my dad and my son, EJ, our name
will be forever enshrined in the his-
tory of football.”
While Rice and Smith were
immediate selections for the hall,
LeBeau finally was inducted after a
32-year wait.
“Man, this really is a great day to
be alive,” said LeBeau, elected by
the senior committee.
LeBeau was chosen for his 14-
year career as a cornerback with the
Detroit Lions, in which he had 62
interceptions, still eighth overall.
He’s best known as an assistant
coach, the mastermind of the zone
blitz. Currently the defensive coor-
dinator of the Pittsburgh Steelers,
LeBeau singled out his players who
sat in a corner of Fawcett Stadium.
“I am being inducted as a player
and believe me that makes me most
proud,” said LeBeau, at 73 the old-
est coordinator in the NFL. “I did
that for 14 years. but for the last 38
years I have been a football coach.
“They are here,” he added, point-
ing to the Steelers, who he helped
win two Super Bowls in the last five
seasons. “That’s just about the high-
est compliment ever paid to me in
my life.
“I wouldn’t want to be here with-
out you: offense, defense and spe-
cial teams.”
The players stood in applause and
fans in the crowd whirled Terrible
Towels in tribute.
He was immediately followed on
the stage by Randle, who as an
undrafted defensive tackle with the
Vikings and Seahawks accumulated
137 1/2 sacks in 14 seasons, most
for anyone at that position.
Randle made six straight All-Pro
teams (1993-98) and was chosen for
seven Pro Bowls. He had a league-
high 15 1/2 sacks in 1997.
“I am so humbled by this incredi-
ble honor which I never thought was
possible. I’m a small-town kid
whose dream came true.”
Grimm was called the “Head
Monday • Aug. 9, 2010 15
Hog” by former Redskins offensive
line coach Joe Bugel. From 1981-
91, Grimm led the Hogs and helped
the Redskins win three Super
Bowls. He is the first member of
that memorable line to make the
hall.
“It’s a privilege to play in the
NFL,” said Grimm, now the assis-
tant head coach of the Arizona
Cardinals. “It’s been a privilege to
coach in the NFL. It’s an honor to
be selected here in Canton.
He called the Hogs “a group of
guys that grew together, worked
together, rose families together” and
said he would have their names
embroidered on the inside of his
gold Hall of Fame jacket.
First Saint in Hall
Jackson, one of the most versatile
linebackers in league history, is the
first New Orleans Saints player to
be enshrined. Jackson made six Pro
Bowls with a combination of strong
run defense and a tenacity that led
to 128 sacks. He helped turn New
Orleans from ’Aints to a division
winner for the first time (1991), and
finished his career with the 49ers,
winning a Super Bowl in January
1995.
“I think I deserve to be up here,”
Jackson said. “Football always has
been my life. I see that in these guys
up here (onstage), how they carried
themselves. They set the standard.”
Little was a star running back for
the Denver Broncos from 1967-75
despite being the only offensive
threat on the team. He had to wait
nearly three decades since becom-
ing eligible before getting elected.
One of football’s most dynamic
runners during his career, Little also
was a dangerous punt and kickoff
returner. In a relatively short career,
he had 12,157 all-purpose yards and
scored 54 touchdowns. Yet the
Broncos never were better than 7-5-
2 in his career.
“There are no words to describe
the joy of experiencing this chapter,
the highest honor ... everything else
pales.”
In a powerful induction speech,
he also encouraged people to say
“Yes I can” throughout their lives
and noted he had “given the best
I’ve got.”

THE DAILY JOURNAL
A
few people have told me I need
to give some love to our winged
and feathered friends. I agree
— it’s been a while; so here goes. For
starters, do you know how to safely get
rid of a wild bird that flies into your
home? Don’t chase after it or wave a
dishtowel in the bird’s vicinity. You’ll
feel goofy, look silly and, odds are, get
nothing accomplished besides burning
calories. Instead, turn off your lights, and
open a few doors and windows, allowing
the bird to reach the outside world on his
or her own. Here’s another nugget: every-
one knows a group of seagulls is a flock
(the ’80s New Wave band helped bring
this into our lexicon), a gathering of
wolves is a pack, a bunch of fish is a
school, kitten and puppy siblings make a
litter and a group of cattle is a herd. We
also have the lesser known gaggle of
geese, covey of quail, aerie of eagles,
muster of storks, party of jays, wake of
buzzards, murder of crows (my personal
favorite) and rafter of turkeys. If Ben
Franklin would have had his way, our
national symbol would have been a wild
turkey instead of the bald eagle. First

Ferrell’s ‘Other Guys’tops box office
By Christy Lemire
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — “The Other Guys” are
the main guys at the box office, knocking off
“Inception” to take the No. 1 spot.
The buddy-cop parody starring Will Ferrell
and Mark Wahlberg made $35.6 million in its
opening weekend, according to Sunday esti-
mates from Sony Pictures.
It’s the second-highest debut for a film in
which Ferrell has starred, and yet another
strong showing for the movies he’s made with
his frequent collaborator, writer-director Adam
McKay. Their biggest opening was “Talladega
Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby,” which
debuted at No. 1 with $47 million in August
2006. “Step Brothers” made $30.9 million and
came in second place when it opened in July
2008. And their first film together,
“Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy,”
opened in second place in July 2004 with
$28.4 million.
“Inception,” which had been the top film in
the country the past three weeks, fell to No. 2
with $18.6 million. Christopher Nolan’s mind-
bending dream thriller from Warner Bros. has
now made $227.7 million since its debut July
16.
Rory Bruer, Sony’s president of worldwide
distribution, said the studio had a good idea
that “The Other Guys” would open at No. 1,
but estimated it would make around $30 mil-
lion. Ferrell plays a nerdy, uptight New York
police detective who’d rather solve crimes
from his desk than run into danger on the
streets. Wahlberg is his hot-tempered, frustrat-
ed partner who’s desperate for action, and the
supporting cast includes Michael Keaton, Eva

“Inception” are both so popular shows that

“How much different could
these two films be? They both
have action elements but
that’s where the comparison
between these two films
ends,” he said. “That’s the
cool thing about summer
movies: They can run the
gamut from silly, off-the-wall
comedies to serious, intense
fare.”
The other new movie open-
ing nationwide this weekend,
the dance sequel “Step Up 3-

Entertainment, came in third
place with $15.5 million.

DEMO
Continued from page 1
Commission for design review tonight.
If approved, the owner is planning to
build two two-story houses each with a
detached garage at the location.
While the building was found to not be
a historic resource under national or
state standards, resident Russ Cohen
argued it would be a possible fit for a
local registry, if Burlingame had one.
Residents of a local city can set stan-
dards for a local registry.
While there is no current reason for
the project to be held up for historic
preservation, Cohen hoped it would
spark a community conversation about
valuing pieces of Burlingame’s past.
“If there is a silver lining, maybe this
could be a wake-up call,” said Cohen,
adding if the community continues to
allow the demolition of buildings which
add character to the city to be replaced
by structures without the same quality, it
will change the city’s culture.
The current proposal would turn the
parcel into two lots —tentatively given
the addresses of 1536 and 1540
Newlands Ave. A two-story home with a
detached two-car garage totaling 3,882
square feet is proposed at 1546
Newlands Ave., according to a staff
report. Next door, a two-story home with
a detached two-car garage totaling 4,372

‘we think the judge will agree with us’
and another to release funds. It seems
risky,” Huerta said.
But Mayor Randy Royce and Public
Works Director Robert Weil said the real
risk is waiting any longer.
“Right now we’re at a point that if we
delay any further we lose the entire con-
struction season,” Weil said.
The contract cost is also a key factor,
according to Royce.
The winning bid by Interstate Grade
and paving was $1.75 million — a sharp
difference from the original $2.19 mil-
lion estimated budget and Royce
believes any more delays may forfeit
that agreement and force the city to re-
negotiate at a higher rate.
Huerta and others who share her con-
cern wonder if the city is ready to absorb
the cost of repairing the field if the judge
rules against it.
Royce believes the contractor will still
have enough time to stop before any
irreparable damage is done.
Royce, who is confident that the city
will prevail in the suit, said he is ready to
go forward, too, because he wants to see
the project done sooner rather than later.
“My personal viewpoint is that there

Padua. “We [the players at the Elks Club]
thought ‘holy mackerel!’ He’s that strong.
He came back. I couldn’t do that.”
To prepare for the games, Harrell
played younger members at the Elks Club
courts, including the venue’s handball
commissioner, 61-year-old Dave
Balestrieri.
“We were watching him get his butt
kicked,” said Padua, “but he wasn’t going
to be playing 50-year-olds in Nationals.”
Harrell was introduced to handball as a
19-year-old lifeguard in Austin by Pete
Tyson, the first handball coach to be hired
at the collegiate level.
Through his college years at Southwest
Texas and his years serving in Korea,
Berlin and across the nation in the Army,
Harrell continued to play handball. He’s
won various competitions over the years,
including the 7th Division handball

square feet is proposed. A special permit
is being requested for both properties
which are proposed to be taller than the
30-foot limit.
A property over 50 years old is not on
its own historic, but could be. Under the
California Environmental Quality Act, a
building that is at least 50 years old is a
potentially historic property. It was that
thinking that prompted the city to review
1540 Newlands Ave. last year.
Last year, the property was put up for
sale and promptly sold after the family
invested money and time staging it for
sale, storing possessions and temporari-
ly living in another residence. Then in
September, Vice Mayor Cathy Baylock,
who lives on Newlands Avenue, was
alerted to plans by the buyer to demolish
the property. Knowing there were his-
toric documents on the home, she felt
obligated to file the public documents
with the city. Questions about the prop-
erty’s historic nature would require the
city to do a historic resource evaluation
and environmental review.
That information was relayed to the
interested buyer, who promptly pulled
out of the deal. A review found no his-
toric value for the property, but left the
family searching once again for a buyer
which came a few months later.
As a result, homes in the Burlingame
Park area that could be demolished or
considered historic are required to go
through a historical review process prior
to submitting plans to the Planning
are 2,000 soccer boys and girls ready to
play through the winter and I don’t want
to have half-dozen citizens impede the
process,” Royce said.
The plan calls for converting the sur-
face of the Highlands Park lower field
from natural to synthetic turf. The field
is an area of approximately 31 percent of
the 11.25-acre city park. The conversion
is expected to increase play space by
43.5 percent and eliminate the annual
six-week maintenance closure period.
The latest worry over the use of syn-
thetic turf comes at the tail end of a
decade-long battle over natural versus
synthetic sod. After years of meetings,
debate, votes and re-decisions, the coun-
cil eventually voted 4-1, with
Councilman Matt Grocott dissenting, to
replace the Highlands Park Lower
Athletic Field with synthetic turf. The
city previously wanted to start the work
on its list of needy fields at Heather
School but negotiations fell apart with
the San Carlos Elementary School
District.
In 2009, Save San Carlos Parks filed
suit, arguing the scope of the environ-
mental review didn’t properly address all
aspects of safety and aesthetics.
Regardless, the City Council continued
on but tweaked its plan by opting for an
organic infill made of coconut husk, peat
and sand or a combination of coconut
fiber, cork and sand.
championships while serving in Korea.
Despite making it to the semifinals twice,
Harrell had not won a national title
before.
In 1993, Harrell went to his doctor to
ask about his knee after a handball match.
The doctor told him that he had nothing
to worry about and the problems were
coming from his old knees. He played his
last national tournament in 1996.
“I knew I couldn’t compete because my
knees were hurting me so badly,” he said.
It wasn’t until his daughter went to the
doctor because of knee problems that he
was diagnosed. After her doctor ordered
an X-ray for him, he discovered that he
had broken his kneecap. Years of com-
pensating for his left knee by using his
right had worn down his other knee as
well.
On June 22, 2009, he got both of his
knees replaced. He was in physical thera-
py for only a week before he was
released. By October 2009, he was back
to playing handball again, once a month.
“The doctor said I was the fastest
recovery they had ever seen,” he said.
“I’ll never forget, he told me a long
Department. All cases are reviewed indi-
vidually. A negative declaration report
will be prepared for the Newlands
Avenue projects showing that there will
be no adverse effects from the proposal,
according to the staff report.
How to address historic properties is
not a new issue in Burlingame. In June
2008, a draft inventory of small details
and buildings put together as part of the
Downtown Specific Plan caused a rift
between those hoping to maintain the
historic nuances and property owners
who felt blindsided by the requirements
such a denotation brought with it.
At the same meeting, the commission
will consider a proposal allowing facade
changes to 1440 Burlingame Ave. across
from Wells Fargo bank. An olive oil and
specialty food store is suggested for the
site.
The commission will also vote on a
proposal to open ULove Yogurt at 1118
Burlingame Ave. across from Straits
Restaurant. If opened, it would be the
fifth frozen yogurt business downtown.
The proposal is the first to take advan-
tage of a recently-changed municipal
code allowing five additional food estab-
lishments — which could be anything
from a bar to a full-service restaurant —
in portions of the Burlingame Avenue
commercial area.
The commission meets 7 p.m. Monday,
Aug. 9 at City Hall, 501 Primrose Road.
City officials believe the change
makes the lawsuit moot because the ren-
ovation now uses neither recycled or vir-
gin rubber.
Huerta personally prefers the coconut
over the rubber but said the lawsuit still
stands because the city’s evaluation did-
n’t address other concerns like traffic.
She is hopeful Weiner will rule favor-
ably for the opponents.
Regardless, Weil doesn’t believe a
negative ruling for the city will automat-
ically halt the work without some issued
“legal restraint.”
On Monday night, the city’s Planning
Commission approved the permit for dirt
hauling and grading. Weil said the con-
tractor has a notice to proceed on Aug.
12 and has 10 days to mobilize. On this
timetable, the 90-day contract antici-
pates grading completion by Oct. 15 fol-
lowed by the laying of the synthetic turf
between then and Dec. 31.
There will be some initial prep work
but Weil expects the old turf pulled up
not long after.
If work is stopped, the park will need
repair but it is not as dire a situation as
Save San Carlos Parks members worry,
Weil said.
The grading depth is between nine and
12 inches and the field has drainage
underneath already, he said.
“It won’t be a mud hole but it is a point
of no return,” Weil said.
time ago that you either lead, follow or
get out of the way,” said Padua. “He does-
n’t follow, and he doesn’t get out of the
way.”
In April, Harrell decided to try for
another bid at a national title.
“I looked at the roster [online] and
thought ‘I might actually have the chance
to win this,” he said.
With the help of his powerful and
unpredictable serve, Harrell won his final
match against Dale Ziegler of Viera,
Florida.
He continues to play at the Elks Club,
where he’s been a regular since 1973.
“He taught me how to play,” said
Balestrieri, a former captain with the San
Mateo Fire Department who got his start
playing a different version of the game at
the station. “He would run me around the
court.”
“He always wants to give, give away
his secrets,” said Padua, who also. “We’ll
be watching a game and he’ll say how it
should be played. He’s a coach.”
Harrell works as a financial planner out
of Menlo Park.

Monday, Aug. 9, 2010
The probabilities for success look strong for you in the year
ahead, in two areas you consider to be extremely important.
The first is your work or career and the second involves your
social affairs. You’ll be enriched in both of them.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) - Unless you are a self-made million-
aire, don’t try to tell others how to mange their resources. You
might mean well, but what you’re advising them could lead to
a losing experience.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) - It’ll be important to remember
that giving and taking is a two-way street. Be just as enthusi-
astic about lending what you can as you are about receiving
loans from others.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) - If someone hires you for a
specific job, make sure the terms are clearly laid out and
understood by all parties involved. If either you or they don’t
understand what’s expected, unfairness could be claimed.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) - Don’t put too much stock in
the promises of braggarts or hotshots. What they have to offer
might merely be something they only wish they had or could
produce.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) - It’s going to take a lot
more then your charm and good looks to get you by the chal-
lenges of others, especially in career situations. Be able to
produce what you claim you can.
to be accepted, have the facts ready to back up everything
you claim.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) - Be extremely careful in your
bookkeeping, so that mistakes aren’t able to sneak in and
wreak havoc with your affairs. Later, when it matters, your
books might show a deficit instead of a profit.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) - You’re likely to be all on your
own, so be prepared. People who usually are there for you
might not be in a position to help, just when you need them
the most.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) - Get involved if you believe it to
be necessary, but make sure you are doing so for the right
reasons, such as helping someone who is getting picked on
just because s/he is the underdog.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) - Practice moderations in all
things, and you won’t get in trouble. Indulging in excesses
for any reason will result in problems, if not now, then down
the line.

Asia flooding plunges millions into misery
By Christopher Bodeen
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BEIJING — Floods and landslides across
Asia plunged millions into misery Sunday as
rubble-strewn waters killed at least 127 in
northwestern China and 4 million Pakistanis
faced food shortages amid their country’s
worst-ever flooding.
In Indian-controlled Kashmir, rescuers raced
to find 500 people still missing in flash floods
that have already killed 132, while North
Korea’s state media said high waters had
destroyed thousands of homes and damaged
crops.
Terrified residents fled to high ground or
upper stories of apartment buildings in China’s
Gansu province after a debris-blocked river
overflowed during the night, smashing build-
ings and overturning cars.
The official Xinhua News Agency said
Sunday that authorities were seeking to locate
an estimated 1,300 people still missing in the
latest deluge in a summer that has seen China’s
worst seasonal flooding in a decade. That figure
was down from 2,000 earlier in the day.
Worst hit was the county seat of Zhouqu in
the province’s Gannan Tibetan Autonomous
Prefecture, where houses buckled and streets
were filled with more than a yard (meter) of
mud and water.
The landslides struck after heavy rains lashed
China late Saturday, causing the Bailong River
to burst its banks, Xinhua quoted the head of
Zhouqu county, Diemujiangteng, as saying.
The devastation was worsened by flotsam
that blocked the river upstream, creating a 2-
mile (3-kilometer) -long lake that overflowed
and sent waves of mud, rocks and water crash-
ing down on the town, ripping houses from their
foundations and tearing six-story apartment
buildings in half.
Explosives experts were flying to the scene
by helicopter to demolish the blockage and
safely release potential flood waters ahead of

more rain forecast through Wednesday.
China Central Television said 45,000 people
had been evacuated, but the region’s remote,
mountainous location was hampering the emer-
gency response. Narrow roads prevented the
movement of heavy equipment, forcing res-
cuers to rely on shovels, picks and buckets.
Firefighters rescued 28 people on Sunday and
the government had allocated 500 million yuan
($73 million) for recovery efforts, Xinhua said.
Around China, the country’s worst flooding
in a decade has killed more than 1,100 people
this year, with more than 600 still missing. The
floods have caused tens of billions of dollars in
damage across 28 provinces and regions.

In Pakistan, more than 1,500 people have
been killed and millions more left begging for
help following the worst floods in the country’s
history. Prices of fruit and vegetable skyrocket-
ed Sunday, with more than 1 million acres
(405,000 hectares) of crops destroyed and at
least 4 million people in need of food assis-
tance in the coming months.
The latest deaths included at least 53 people
killed on Saturday when landslides buried two
villages in the northern Gilgit-Baltistan, sen-
ior government official Ali Mohamamd
Sikandar said.
Pakistan has worked with international part-
ners to rescue more than 100,000 people and

provide food and shelter to thousands more.
But the government has struggled to cope
with the scale of a disaster that it estimates
has affected 13 million people and could get
worse as heavy rains lashed Pakistan again on
Sunday.
At least 1.4 million acres (570,000
hectares) of crops were destroyed in the cen-
tral province of Punjab, the breadbasket for
the rest of Pakistan, the United Nations
reported. Many more crops were devastated in
the northwest, where destruction from the
floods has been most severe and many resi-
dents are still trying to recover from intense
battles between the Taliban and the army last
year.
Many flood victims have complained they
have not received aid quickly enough or at all.
The number of people needing assistance
could increase as heavy rains continued to hit
many areas of the country. The swollen Indus
River overflowed near the city of Sukkur in
southern Sindh province on Sunday, submerg-
ing the nearby village of Mor Khan Jatoi with
chest-high water and destroying many of its
1,500 mud homes.
“We are sitting on the bank with nothing in
our hands; no shelter, no food,” said a flood
victim in Sukkur, Allah Bux. “We are helpless
and in pain.”
The U.N. special envoy for the disaster,
Jean-Maurice Ripert, said billions of dollars
would be needed to help Pakistan recover, but
funds could be difficult to procure amid the
global financial crisis.
In neighboring India, rescuers dug through
crushed homes and piles of mud searching for
500 people still missing after flash floods sent
massive mudslides down remote desert moun-
tainsides in Indian-administered Kashmir,
officials said. The death toll rose to 132 with
about 500 others injured.
The dead included at least five foreign
tourists whose nationalities were not immedi-
ately known.

‘Boardwalk’ lead role is
Buscemi’s dream come true
BEVERLY HILLS — Respected character actor Steve
Buscemi says it’s only in his “wildest” dreams that he saw
himself as a leading man.
But that’s just what Buscemi (boo-SEH’mee) is in the new
HBO series “Boardwalk Empire,” set in Prohibition-era
Atlantic City, N.J. Buscemi stars as a politician maneuvering
his way through 1920s corruption, violence and romance.
At a meeting Saturday of the Television Critics
Association, Buscemi recalled thinking he was glad he’d
read the excellent script because he would have been unhap-
py to lose the role.
“Boardwalk Empire,” starring Buscemi and Scottish actress
Kelly Macdonald, debuts Sept. 19 on HBO with an episode
directed by Martin Scorsese, who’s an executive producer for
the series.
Spike Lee bashes U.S. report on vanished Gulf oil
BEVERLY HILLS — Filmmaker Spike Lee is calling a
“lie” a U.S. government report that 75 percent of the spilled
Gulf Coast oil is gone.
Speaking to a meeting of the Television Critics Association
on Saturday, Lee said journalists should expose what he called
the real story. He argued that it’s unlikely that “abracadabra,
presto chango” the vast majority of the oil has vanished from
Gulf of Mexico waters and coastal wetlands.
Federal scientists said last week that nearly three-quarters of
the oil has been removed by various artificial or natural means,
but that the spill’s effect on wildlife will long continue.
Lee was promoting his new documentary about New
Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. “If God is Willing and Da
Creek Don’t Rise,” a follow-up to his 2006 film about the hur-
ricane, debuts Aug. 23 and 24 on HBO.

Camila leaves their mark
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Having already conquered Latin
America, the Mexican soft rock group
Camila has now turned their attention to
the United States. And with the initial
success of their latest tour, including a
recent sold out show at the Fillmore in
San Francisco, it’s safe to say that their
goal might be an obtainable one.
Latin groups are hard to gauge accu-
rately — success in foreign markets
doesn’t always render popularity in the
United States.
But an electric, sold-out show at a his-
toric venue like the Fillmore translates
into a victory in any language.
