Feds infuse Caltrain with cash


Grant to modernize system, make it compatible with high-speed rail needs
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Caltrain took an important rst step toward modernization yesterday as the Federal Railroad Administration awarded $16 million for a new communication system that will pave the way for electrication on the corridor for high-speed trains. The grant was awarded to the California

High-Speed Rail Authority for the design of a new, modernized signaling system on the Caltrain corridor between San Francisco to San Jose. The new system, known as the Communication Based Overlay Signal System, includes safety improvements required by federal law. In addition, the grant will be used to design a positive-train control system that will accommodate the existing

52-mile corridor and provide support for high-speed trains. PTC is a federal mandate all train systems in the United States will eventually have to employ. Caltrain will match the grant with an additional $4 million pledged to the project, said Seamus Murphy, Caltrains manager of government affairs. The projects total cost is estimated to be $251 million.

Caltrain had intended to electrify the corridor before high-speed rail became a reality in the state. The partnership between Caltrain and the rail authority, however, has allowed for the infusion of federal cash into the local corridor as President Barack Obama has made establishing a national high-speed rail system a priority.

HEATHER MURTAGH/DAILY JOURNAL

Teacher Patricia Alcocer watches as a student puts up the day of the week during a Spanish immersion summer school class housed at Redwood Shores Elementary School Wednesday.

Capping three days of departmental presentations, the Board of Supervisors Thursday adopted a tentative $1.9 billion budget that spared from the chopping block several probation ofcers, a coastside public nurse and some health services for at-risk children. Carole Groom The supervisors added $1,705,568 back to its recommended $1.69 billion budget a substantially smaller amount than the $4.1 million in departmental requests before them yesterday. Board President Carole Groom suggested the board not add back anything requiring general funds because of state budget uncertainties and the countys own ve-year effort to wipe out a $82 million budget gap. Leave it alone. I would suggest we just leave it alone. Look at it again in September. Look at it again in January, she said.

Immersion summer
Spanish-language program helps students learn new language

See BUDGET, Page 8

As two little girls held hands and ran back to their classroom at Redwood Elementary School, their teacher had a simple request: No corras. Whats corras? one little girl asked the other. Run, was the response. They followed suit and led into their classroom Wednesday morning to take part in some academic lessons all spoken in Spanish. School is out for the sum-

mer, but in the Belmont-Redwood Shores Elementary School District, many parents who wanted language immersion options for their kids are seeking enrichment through summer programs. Now in its second year, the partnership between Footsteps Child Care and Multilingual Kids has grown. The interest could be noteworthy as the district is set to soon discuss adding a magnet program to its academic offerings. Interest in academic programs taught in either Spanish or Mandarin sparked

headlines in the 2009-10 school year when many parents banded together and offered to fund seed costs for an immersion program. Ultimately a number of issues lack of funds for a position to create the program, low enrollment during the allotted test time and a hesitancy to allow donations to be earmarked led to a no vote by the board. Despite this no vote, parents such as Alyssa Herrera-Set were still interested in multilingual education for their children.

A South San Francisco man who forcibly took a womans dog from her arms last week will not be prosecuted because the dog had actually belonged to him at one point, a deputy district attorney said Thursday. Late Friday morning, Genesis Sicat, 47, confronted a woman walking a brown Chihuahua and Pomeranian mix on Eucalyptus Avenue and said the dog was his pet that had been lost about a year ago, South San Francisco Sgt.

Strange but True


Mans tossed pot lands on police cruiser
BUFFALO, N.Y. State police say a mans effort to ditch some drugs from a moving car in western New York didnt exactly go as planned. Troopers with the state police Thruway detail say 20-year-old Sean Schmidt was standing with his upper body sticking out the sunroof of a vehicle traveling on Interstate 190 in Buffalo late Monday night. When a trooper following in a state police cruiser activated the car lights to pull the other vehicle over, Schmidt threw a small bag of marijuana, which landed on the hood of the troopers car. Troopers say Schmidt was ticketed for marijuana possession and not wearing a seatbelt. again, Rutkowski said. Theres something going on in his life. The boy told authorities that he drove off in his stepfathers car Monday to see his father, who also lives in Huron County, 110 miles north of Detroit. The boy reached speeds of at least 50 mph before police caught up with him. He stopped the car on a rural road where the speed limit was 55. He was crying and just kept saying he wanted to go to his dads, Caseville Police Chief Jamie Learman said. That was pretty much it. He just wanted to go to his dads. Police began looking for the Pontiac Sunre around 10:15 a.m. after someone called about a very young driver. The boys mother had worked the night shift and was unaware her son and the car were gone. Learman told the Detroit Free Press he feared the boy would crash as the car veered to the right and shtailed. When that happened, he seemed to be increasing his speeds, Learman said. The chief sped ahead and tried to box-in the Sunre with the help of a sheriffs deputy who was behind in another vehicle. hearing from an attorney who said the name defames the family name of her client. The client, Arthur Hertell, lives in nearby Bethel and had a grandmother named Mary. She once lived on the road, although shes not the roads namesake. Hertell thinks the name is a desecration of her memory. The Sun Journal reported that several residents who live on the colorfully named road said Alcohol Mary is a historical gure and a source of local pride.

NYC jails ask scantily clad visitors to cover up


NEW YORK New York City jail ofcials are asking scantily clad visitors to cover up with bright green T-shirts. The city Department of Correction spent $5,000 on 800 extra-extra-large neon shirts. Theyre washed daily. The jail dress code prohibits gang symbols, swimwear, and short skirts, among other attire. The policy requires visitors to wear clothing appropriate for a family gathering, including underwear. The T-shirts arent just for women. Men with ripped clothes or T-shirts bearing expletives could also be asked to wear them. Jewelry besides wedding rings also is discouraged. The new policy, which was reported by The Daily News on Tuesday, took effect in March. Department spokeswoman Sharman Stein says the policy will also help catch visitors trying to sneak in contraband. The T-shirts have no pockets.

Defense claims murder evidence insufficient


Accused killer asking for evidence hearing before competency ruling
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Police reports
Fine leather, no good
Two men wearing suits were walking around and selling leather goods on Edgewater Boulevard in Foster City before 6:50 p.m. Wednesday, June 22.

The man prosecutors say gunned down East Palo activist David Lewis at the Hillsdale Shopping Center wants a preliminary hearing on the evidence before a judge determines if he is mentally unfit to stand trial for the murder of his childhood friend. If Judge Mark Forcum finds insufficient evidence to try Gregory Leon Elarms, 58, the question of the mans competency is moot and he will be released from custody. However, if Elarms is held to answer, Forcum will immediately rule on Elarms mental fitness. The request for a preliminary hearing prior to a competency ruling is not unusual but prosecutor Al Giannini said the timing in this particular case halfway through the competency hearing is. I think this is an unnecessary procedural hiccup but in the scheme of things it is neither going to damage the case nor delay proceedings by more than a couple of days, Giannini said. Defense attorney Jeff Boyarsky said he was quite within legal procedure and it is important to know if the criminal case even

has merit before determining if his client can aid in his own defense. Elarms preliminary hearing is July 7. Two of three courtappointed doctors previously found Elarms incompetent and those David Lewis reports will form the basis of Forcums decision if necessary. If Elarms is found incompetent, he will most likely be hospitalized. If not, he will be tried on charges of murder, the use of a firearm and the special allegation of lying in wait. He could face either life in prison without parole or the death penalty if convicted. Questions of Elarms mental state have been posed since his arrest in the June 9, 2010 death of Lewis but no definitive diagnosis has ever been stated. Elarms knew Lewis, 54, as a teen in East Palo Alto. On June 9, Elarms allegedly followed the former felon and well-known drug counselor from the San Mateo Medical Center, where Lewis performed HIV and AIDS outreach, to the San Mateo shopping center parking structure where he pulled a

weapon and fired just before 6 p.m. Lewis survived the attack long enough to utter the name Greg but was pronounced dead at the hospital later that evening. Even with that information, police made Gregory Elarms no arrests until after Elarms called them himself Dec. 18. Lewis co-founded Free at Last, a 15-yearold East Palo Alto-based nonprofit agency that provides services for recovering drug addicts, after struggles with addiction himself. Lewis went to San Quentin State Prison at age 19 and, after 15 years, returned to East Palo Alto. Elarms has an extensive criminal history dating back to 1969, but the majority are crimes like attempted robbery and drugs in the mid-1980s. Elarms remains in custody without bail.

Redwood City street upgrades begin in July


DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT

Redwood City will begin $1.4 million worth of neighborhood street improvements next month as part of its preventative maintenance program. The road resurfacing projects will begin in mid-July on Veterans Boulevard between Whipple Avenue and Chestnut Street and East Bayshore Road between Seaport Boulevard and Haven Avenue. The work,

which includes prep work and overlay phases, is estimated to be completed in approximately 10 weeks. Motorists should expect periodic lane closures, detours, dust and temporary parking restrictions. Overall work hours are 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Veterans Boulevard will remain open to traffic in both directions at all times but during major work and East Bayshore Road will have one-way traffic control.

Redwood City has received nearly $950,000 in grants toward the cost from the Federal Surface Transportation Program and is funding the difference with Measure A transportation money.

mately 9:30 a.m. Feb. 24, 2010, two men later identied as Navarrete and codefendant Juan Carlos Vasquez entered the home on the 300 block of Forest View Drive. The couple told police that Vasquez had worked as a landscaper at their home twice in the last four years. The morning of the attack, the defendants reportedly knocked on the couples door asking for work. Once denied, they allegedly forced their way inside. The 53-year-old woman was tied up and sexually assaulted at knifepoint by Navarrete in the homes back bedroom, prosecutors contend. Her 74-year-old husband was kept in a different part of the home and beaten. Prosecutors say they also ate the couples food and forced them to sign checks before eeing with jewelry and their vehicle. The man was able to free himself after the suspects left and went to a neighbors home to seek help. Police arrested Vasquez later that day in San Francisco while driving the couples truck. Navarrete was caught the following day. Each were originally charged with 21 felonies including robbery, assault, elder abuse, sexual battery, threatening a witness and mayhem. In April, Vasquez pleaded no contest to felony home invasion robbery, elder abuse, felony obtaining signatures by threat, car theft and the use of a knife. He was immediately sentenced to 10 years and four months in prison.

Judge nixes hate crime in transgender assault


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO San Francisco prosecutors said Thursday they intend to challenge a judges decision to dismiss hate crime allegations against two men charged with beating a transgender woman during a robbery in a Mission District subway station. Superior Court Judge Bruce Chan ruled at the end of the suspects prelimi-

nary hearing late Wednesday that the suspects assaulted the 20-year-old woman while trying to rob her of her cell phone, not because of her gender identity, District Attorney George Gascon told reporters during a news conference where he announced plans to contest the ruling. The hate motivation behind the arrests was very clear to us, Gascon said. This is something that should be

left up to a jury. Gascon said his ofce will rele the hate crime enhancement against Lionel Jackson, 32, and Maurice Perry, 37, when the two are tried on felony assault and robbery before a different judge. He says he wants to send a message that San Francisco does not tolerate violence against transgender people. The victims identity is not being released at her request, Gascon said.

SAN FRANCISCO New census gures show that one of every 100 California households is made up of cohabitating same-sex couples, the highest proportion among the seven states for which detailed demographic data has been released so far. The U.S. Census Bureau reported Thursday that California had 125,516 households headed by an adult living with a same-sex spouse who was described as either a husband, wife or unmarried partner. Fifty-three percent of such households were headed by women and 47 percent by men. Same-sex unions were legal for nearly ve months in California before voters amended the state Constitution to outlaw them in November 2008. The state still grants same-sex couples who register as domestic partners all the rights and obligations of marriage. An analysis of the new numbers prepared by the Williams Institute on Sexual Orientation Law, a think tank based at the University of California, Los Angeles, found that San Francisco has the greatest share of same-sex couples among Californias 58 counties, more than three of every 100 households.

South City hoping for grant funds
South San Francisco leaders are hoping a grant will make purchasing 6.86 acres of land located at 80 Chestnut Ave. to build a soccer eld and other recreational amenities possible. On Wednesday, the City Council voted 4-0, with Councilwoman Karyl Matsumoto absent, to apply for a $5 million grant through a statewide park program. Due July 1, the program offers grants to create new park land and develop recreational areas, according to a staff report written by Assistant City Manager Marty Van Duyn. Applicants do not need to match the money. However, there must be less than 3 acres per 1,000 population in a half-mile radius of the project location. The Cal Water site ts the requirements. Cal Water also provided the city with a willing seller letter. Should the city be granted the funds, it would have one year to make the sale happen.

expenses, next years looks a bit leaner. The city projects $63.79 million in revenue and $63.55 million in expenses, according to the budget passed 4-0 by the City Council Wednesday, with Councilwoman Karyl Matsumoto absent. The citys expenses increased during the last year including an additional $1 million to retirement requirements, according to a staff report by Director of Finance Jim Steele. South San Francisco also expects medical costs to increase in the coming year. A one-time property tax refund of $485,000 also boosted revenue. Savings were also realized in the last year, to the tune of $604,200. Savings came from unlled positions, backlling retirements with existing staff and turning several vacant full-time positions into hourly jobs. It is important to remind the council that budget reductions taken to date are largely as a result of position vacancies. This is a problematic way to balance the budget in the longer term, since vacancies do not necessarily occur in the areas where there are services that would be rationally chosen to cut, Steele wrote. The nancial staff will create a long-term nancial forecast for the general fund which will go before the council later this summer. that already offer health coverage to domestic partners and their children.

The Burlingame Planning Commission will study a parking variance request for intensifying the use of 270 East Lane. Plans call for converting the 8,276-square-foot auto repair space to ofce space. Converting the number of required parking spaces from 51 to 69. Four of those spaces are already on the lot. The commission meets 7 p.m. Monday, June 27 at City Hall, 501 Primrose Road.

WASHINGTON Two House members introduced a bill Thursday that would remove marijuana from the list of federal controlled substances and cede to the states enforcement of laws governing pot. The legislation would eliminate marijuanaspecic penalties under federal law, but would maintain a ban on transporting marijuana across state lines. It would allow individuals to grow and sell marijuana in states that make it legal. The bill has no chance of passing the Republican-controlled House. The bill was introduced by Democrat Barney Frank of Massachusetts and Ron Paul, a Texas Republican running for his partys presidential nomination. Four Democrats are co-sponsors: John Conyers of Michigan, Barbara Lee of California, Jared Polis of Colorado and Steve

Cohen of Tennessee. Criminally prosecuting adults for making the choice to smoke marijuana is a waste of law enforcement resources and an intrusion on personal freedom, Frank said. I do not advocate urging people to smoke marijuana. Neither do I urge them to drink alcoholic beverages or smoke tobacco. But in none of these cases do I think prohibition enforced by criminal sanctions is good public policy. The bill would have to go through the House Judiciary Committee. Chairman Lamar Smith, R-Texas, said his panel would not consider it. Marijuana use and distribution is prohibited under federal law because it has a high potential for abuse and does not have an accepted medical use in the U.S., Smith said. The Food and Drug Administration has not approved smoked marijuana for any condition or disease.

Obama says gay couples deserve same rights as all


NEW YORK Treading carefully, President Barack Obama praised New York state lawmakers who were debating landmark legislation Thursday to legalize gay marriage, saying thats what democracys all about. But as expected, the president stopped short of embracing same-sex marriage himself, instead asking gay and lesbian donors for patience. I believe that gay couples deserve the same legal rights as every other couple in this country, the president said at a Manhattan fundraiser, his rst geared specically to the gay community. Coincidentally, the longplanned event occurred just as lawmakers in Albany were debating legislation that would make New York the sixth and by far the largest state to legalize gay marriage.

SEATTLE Two men intent on attacking a military recruiting station to inspire Muslims to defend their religion from U.S. actions abroad were snared by FBI agents in a terror plot sting, authorities said Thursday. Abu Khalid Abdul-Latif, also known as Joseph Anthony Davis, of Seattle, and Walli Mujahidh, also known as Frederick Domingue Jr., of Los Angeles, were arrested Wednesday night after they arrived at a warehouse garage to pick up machine guns to use in the attack, an FBI agent wrote in a criminal complaint led in U.S. District Court. The machine guns had been rendered inoperable by federal agents and posed no risk to the public. The two suspects appeared in federal court Thursday in tan prison garb and listened as prosecutor recited the charges against them. Detention hearings were set for Wednesday. Their court-appointed defense lawyers declined to comment. The suspects could face life in prison if convicted. Authorities learned of the plot early this month when a third person recruited to partici-

Investigators immediately began monitoring the men, and the condential informant continued to string them along by promising to obtain weapons. The building, the Military Entrance Processing Station on East Marginal Way in Seattle, also houses a daycare. Recruits for all military branches are screened and processed there. The Homeland Security Department said in a May 31 assessment with other organizations that it did not think it likely there would be coordinated terrorist attacks against military recruiting and National Guard facilities. The agencies agreed, however, that lone offenders or groups would continue to try to launch attacks against these facilities. Our review of attempted attacks during the

past two years suggests that lone offenders currently present the greatest threat, according to the assessment, marked for ofcial use only and obtained by the Associated Press. Recently, terror supporters have encouraged their followers to focus on simple attacks and not complex, elaborate ones like those on Sept. 11, 2001. In audio and video recordings, the suspects in the Seattle case discussed the plot at length, discussing how to time their attack at military recruits, such as by tossing grenades in the cafeteria, the complaint said. The key thing to remember here is, is we are not targeting anybody innocent that means old people, women out of uniform, any children, Abdul-Latif is quoted as saying.

Norteo caught in New Mexico for local homicide


By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

A fourth and possibly nal suspect has been arrested in New Mexico in connection with a November gang-related shooting in Redwood City that left 21-year-old Julio Pantoja Cuevas dead. Jaime Treto Rodriguez, 20, was arrested Saturday in Santa Fe after ofcers responded to a report of a domestic dispute in a casino,

Redwood City police Sgt. Sean Hart said. Rodriguez is a known Norteo and will be charged with being afliated with a criminal street gang, Hart said. Police in New Mexico determined that Rodriguez was wanted in San Mateo County in connection with the homicide of Cuevas, who died Nov. 28 in an alley near the 400 block of Madison Avenue after being shot several times, Hart said. We had an idea he either ed to Mexico or New Mexico, Hart told the Daily Journal. Rodriguez waived an extradition hearing in New Mexico and is expected to be returned to San Mateo County in the next few days, Hart said. Investigators believe the shooting followed a shoving match and an argument over gang colors. Three other suspects have already been arrested in connection with the homicide. Redwood City resident Michael Rodriguez and Palo Alto resident Mario Cazares, both now 18 years old, were arrested the day after the shooting and remain in custody without bail, according to the San Mateo County District Attorneys Office. Both suspects pleaded not guilty to homicide charges Jan. 11. Police also arrested a 15-year-old suspect at

his home in January who was then booked into the countys Youth Services Center for murder and participation in a criminal street gang. Michael Rodriguez is the suspected shooter in the incident, police said, and is not related to Jaime Rodriguez, the suspect arrested in Santa Fe Saturday. On the night of the homicide, Cuevas was allegedly visiting three female friends at an apartment complex at 426 Madison Ave. in Redwood City. He was allegedly wearing a navy blue jacket with the letters LA on the back when he exchanged words with a group of Norteos standing across the street, with one sitting on a bicycle. One of the suspects started punching Cuevas before Michael Rodriguez allegedly pulled a weapon and red, according to police. Cuevas was found dead in an alleyway adjacent to the Madison Avenue apartments. Norteo gang grafti was clearly displayed on the exterior of the apartment complex the day after Cuevas died. Police were originally looking for ve to eight suspects involved in the incident but now think all of the suspects are in custody. Jaime Rodriguez is the nal suspect we are aware of now, Hart said Thursday.

Easing high oil prices


U.S.and others plan biggest release 60 million barrels of crude
By Johnathan Fahey and Chris Kahn
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Around the world


Karzai surrounding himself with anti-U.S. advisers
KABUL, Afghanistan President Hamid Karzai is increasingly isolated and has surrounded himself with an inner circle of advisers who are urging him to move closer to Iran and Pakistan as the U.S. draws down its role in Afghanistan, several friends and aides tell the Associated Press. Their advice is echoed in Karzais anti-West rhetoric, which has heightened both in his public speeches and in private. He met recently with Irans defense minister, and constantly cautions against trusting the U.S. to have Afghanistans best interests at heart. Several of Karzais close friends and advisers now speak of a president whose doors have closed to all but one narrow faction and who refuses to listen to dissenting opinions. They say people allowed to see the president are vetted by an inner circle of religious conservatives who belong to a nonviolent wing of Hizb-i-Islami, a radical Islamic group whose relentless attacks on American soldiers forced the U.S. to withdraw from bases in northeastern Kunar and Nuristan provinces. The groups leader, Gulbuddin Hekmatyar, was once an American ally but has since been declared a terrorist by the United States.

NEW YORK The United States and other nations that depend on oil imports will release and sell 60 million barrels of crude from emergency stocks in an effort to ease the strain of high oil prices on the global economy. The release by the International Energy Agency, a group of more than two dozen countries, covers only what the world uses roughly every 16 hours. But it was enough to send oil prices lower, at least for the moment. In addition to helping the struggling economies of the U.S. and Europe, analysts said the move was meant as a rebuke to OPEC, which has refused to increase oil production to bring down prices. It will be the largest sale of crude ever from world strategic reserves and only the third since the IEA was formed in 1974 after the Arab oil embargo. The IEA released oil in 2005 after Hurricane Katrina and in 1990 and 1991 after Iraq invaded Kuwait. Half the oil will come from reserves in the U.S. Reners who turn crude into gasoline will be able to bid on the extra oil and have it shipped to them from the salt caverns along the Gulf Coast where it is stored. The IEA said high oil demand and shortfalls of oil production caused by unrest in the Middle East and North Africa threatened to undermine the fragile global eco-

nomic recovery. The uprising in Libya has taken 1.5 million barrels of oil per day off of the market half a million barrels less than will be released each day by the IEA for 30 days. The price of oil rose to nearly $114 per barrel in at the end of April, the highest since the summer of 2008, has fallen 20 percent since then to about $91 a barrel on Thursday. Analysts questioned how much relief the move would provide the economy, and for how long. One analyst, Andrew Lipow, said the timing of the announcement, a day after Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke delivered a negative outlook on the economy, suggests that industrialized countries are grasping for solutions.

Syrian troops push to Turkey border, villagers run


GUVECCI, Turkey Syrian troops pushed to the Turkish border Thursday in their sweep against a 3-month-old pro-democracy movement, sending panicked refugees, including children, rushing across the frontier to safe havens in Turkey. The European Union, meanwhile, announced it was slapping new sanctions on the Syrian regime because of the gravity of the situation, in which the Syrian opposition says 1,400 people have been killed in a relentless government crackdown. U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton warned Syria to pull its troops back from the border. Syrian soldiers patrolled in military vehicles and on foot around the border village of Khirbet al-Jouz, according to Associated Press journalists who watched their movements from the Turkish side. The Local Coordinating Committees, which track the Syrian protest movement, said residents reported tanks had entered the village and snipers were spotted on rooftops.

Mullen sees risk in Obamas Afghanistan withdrawal


By Robert Burns and Matthew Lee
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The nations top military ofcer and its top diplomat made clear Thursday that President Barack Obama rejected the advice of his generals in choosing a quicker path to winding down the war in Afghanistan. The Obama troop withdrawal plan, widely interpreted as marking the beginning of the end of the U.S. combat role in Afghanistan, drew criticism from both sides of the political aisle on

Capitol Hill. Some Republicans decried it as undercutting the military mission at a critical stage of the war, while many Democrats called it too timid. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., took a swipe at Obama from the Senate oor, questioning the timing of his troop pullout plan. Just when they are one year away from turning over a battered and broken enemy in both southern and eastern Afghanistan to our Afghan partners the president has now decided to deny them the forces that our commanders

believe they need to accomplish their objective, McCain said. Obama announced Wednesday night that he will pull 10,000 troops from Afghanistan by December and another 23,000 by the end of next summer. On Thursday, the president spoke at New Yorks Fort Drum to troops and commanders of the Armys 10th Mountain Division. Its headquarters staff is in southern Afghanistan and its soldiers have been among the most frequently deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan over the past decade.

Brown still wants to put tax extensions on ballot


By Marcus Wohlsen
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO With budget talks hitting a wall, California Gov. Jerry Brown said Thursday he was still determined to give voters a chance to decide whether to extend tax increases to balance the states budget. Brown said at a meeting of apartment investors and builders that he remained in negotiations to get the four Republican votes he needs to call a special election. The election would let voters weigh in on whether to extend increases in sales, vehicle and personal income taxes for up to ve years. Im not giving up. Im going to keep working till we get those tax extensions. And we will get them, one way or another, Brown said. The governor last week vetoed a budget passed by Democratic lawmakers, saying the

spending plan relied too much on borrowing and legal maneuvers. Republicans have resisted Browns call for a special election without promises of pension reform and a state spending cap, possibly as companion ballot Jerry Brown initiatives. Brown has said since his gubernatorial campaign that he would seek a statewide vote on the increases, the last of which expire June 30. No special election could likely occur before September, which puts lawmakers in the politically unpalatable position of asking voters to approve what amount to new tax increases, since the old increases would have expired. If GOP legislators wont agree in the next few The board allocated $200,000 to restore inhome crisis services to juveniles rather than the requested $390,000 and restored funding for three employees in Family Health Services. Partial funding was also used for two mental health clinicians, a code enforcement ofcer and two positions in Vocational Rehabilitative Services. The Health System was given the largest infusion, particularly $1.5 million toward a $5 million electronic health records program. The board opted to use Education Revenue Augmentation Funds rather than other general funds because they did not want to exceed the target. The conversion is necessary to qualify federal incentive payments as part of the health care overhaul. Restoring the coastside nurse was the top priority for Supervisor Don Horsley and Supervisor Adrienne Tissier agreed that the isolated geography leaves the area otherwise Transportation Ray LaHood back in May 2010 urging him to direct American Recovery and Reinvestment Act funds to Caltrain for PTC. PTC protects passengers and railroad workers by maintaining safe separations between trains, preventing train speeding and train collisions and protecting road workers. This is an important rst step in making Caltrain a 21st century transportation system, Eshoo wrote in a press release. The new signal system will allow train movements and schedules to be coordinated more efciently, improving the safety and reliability of all passenger rail operations that use the corridor, according to Caltrain.

weeks to the special election and a bridge tax that will keep the increases in place until a statewide vote, Brown said the process of getting an initiative before voters would take the better part of a year. But Im going to tee this up so that all of you and the people of California can weigh in, Brown told meeting attendees. Lawmakers from both parties question whether Brown should continue to push for a special election vote and are declaring the proposal dead. Democrats say they arent willing to support pension reforms and Republicans say they wont support extending taxes. I have no idea where hes going to go and I have no idea where hes going to get his votes, said Assemblyman Charles Calderon, DWhittier. Assembly Republican Leader Connie Conway of Tulare said tax extensions are not lacking some services found in the greater county. The supervisors deemed several of the 19 funding requests high priorities, too, but reasoned that lines must be drawn between what the county needs and what it wants. Those not making the cut included a juvenile assessment center staffed with three probation ofcers, which required $542,261 in general funds. Thats way too much money under our constraints, Groom said. The budget includes roughly $27.3 million in departmental cuts after adjusting for the add-backs. Others falling to the wayside were $700,000 for Proposition 36 treatment slots, $351,459 for the psychiatric residency program at San Mateo Medical Center and two currently vacant benet analyst positions to enroll residents in health coverage. The items were several added back The project also will offer signicant benet to the construction and eventual operation of high-speed rail service on the Peninsula, according to Caltrain. The overall modernization of the Caltrain system includes the electrication of the corridor and the operation of electric vehicles, which will allow the agency to deliver more frequent service to a greater number of passengers. This initial federal investment will enable Caltrain to take an important step forward in our efforts to provide Bay Area communities with a modernized, sustainable commuter rail system that is fully compatible with future high-speed rail service, Caltrain Executive

necessary because state revenues have been on the rise. The governor projected an extra $6.6 billion in his May budget revision and Conway suggested that gure has since gone up to $7.4 billion. In my mind that puts a huge hole in the argument for taxes, she said during a luncheon in Sacramento on Thursday. Her caucus previously released a plan that contains no tax increases, holds education funding at but relies on borrowing and untested maneuvers such as contracting out prison medical care. Conway said she has reached out to Assembly Speaker John Perez to see if they can reach a bipartisan deal without tax increases to override Browns veto. Perezs staff said the speaker is willing to work with Republicans but dismissed the idea that Democrats in the Assembly could support deeper cuts to state programs. Thursday afternoon before the board accepted the budget. They will again vote on the nal budget in late September, after requested reports on matters like the number of community-based organizations and anticipated tweaks in the state budget. The county is in the fourth of a ve-year plan to end the structural decit kind of an incredible odyssey, said County Manager David Boesch. Unlike past years, Boesch said county ofcials shifted the conversation from what they wanted to keep rather than what they wanted to eliminate and focused on smart spending rather than smart cutting. As a result, he said the recommended budget retains substantial funding for services in excess of 90 percent of last years allocations.

BUDGET
Continued from page 1
Newly-elected Supervisor Dave Pine also worried that in looking at line-item requests the board was losing sight of the goal. Looking at the totality concerns me if we are making enough progress toward the structural decit, Pine said. He successfully suggested the board set a target of no more than $1.5 million in addbacks although the board later voted unanimously in favor of the slightly larger amount rather than quibble over $200,000. The general fund changes, which spared 15 of the 208 positions slated for elimination, include $421,608 for three lled adult deputy probation ofcers, $51,730 for an ombudsman and $87,000 for one community public health nurse in Pescadero.

CALTRAIN
Continued from page 1
We wouldnt be able to access these funds without high-speed rail, Murphy said. CBOSS and PTC are among a suite of projects Caltrain and the rail authority has agreed to complete cooperatively under the memorandum of understanding the two agencies signed, Murphy told the Daily Journal. The project will be mutually benecial to both systems, he said. U.S. Rep. Anna Eshoo, D-Palo Alto, led a Bay Area delegation letter to U.S. Secretary of

Director Mike Scanlon wrote in a press release. Peninsula Corridor Joint Powers Board Chair Sean Elsbernd called the grant a critical step toward transforming the Caltrain system that will ultimately link the Peninsula with the rest of the state. Voters passed Proposition 1A in November 2008, a $9 billion bond measure to link San Francisco with Los Angeles with high-speed rail trains. The total cost of the overall project is estimated to be more than $40 billion.

New hope for the Ben Frank


he Benjamin Franklin Hotel was not named for the patriot and statesman, but rather for developer Benjamin Getz and his son-in-law A.C. Franklin when it was constructed in 1926. However, there is no doubt our most entrepreneurial Founding Father would be pleased with the landmark San Mateo buildings recent purchase. Venture capitalist Tim Draper purchased the art deco/Spanish Baroque hotel for a re sale price of less than $6 million and is currently entertaining ideas for what to do with the building. And the possibilities are exciting. The Benjamin Franklin Hotel has a long history in the city. It is the citys most visible landmark and was once the place to be seen. It has gone through several remodels, incarnations and owners but has been vacant since 2002, when United Airlines pulled out of its contract to put up its pilots and ight crews there. Even at the nice price, the building is not without its challenges. It was in the midst of

and it may not require parking. But we are particularly intrigued by the idea of a school for entrepreneurs. The city of San Mateo has long had a need to create some sort of center where innovative businesses could start up, thrive and stay. With such a large building, the possibilities are endless whether it might include ofce space, live/work space, condominiums and short-term room rentals in a boutique environment. Recent challenges to the development of the site for anything other than a hotel use have been hindered by the citys parking requirements. Any such out-of-the-box plan would require a certain amount of exibility and creativity from all stakeholders including those at City Hall. The Benjamin Franklin Hotel may have been a bargain, but it will take creative energy for it to rise once again as the place to be in San Mateo. The recent purchase was a great rst step. Lets hope it is one of many great steps and that the landmark building can once again live up to its namesake even if wasnt really the man on the $100 bill.

a remodel when its former owners went bankrupt and there are missing pieces to the renovation. It is an aging building with unique architecture and landmark value to the city. It has no parking. And while it has a high-quality restaurant on its rst oor, the hotels adjacent banquet facilities and courtyard could use some work. But it has promise and a wide variety of possibilities. Draper has a few ideas for the building which include keeping it as a hotel, converting it to condominiums or creating a school of entrepreneurship. He is also welcome to new ideas. We have some, though it might be self-serving to say subsidized housing and ofces for journalists would be the best one (seriously, think about it, particularly for journalists whose editorials include long parenthetical expressions ending in emoticons :).

Welcome to the real world
Editor, I just nished reading Jon Mays column No budget, no paycheck in the June 22 edition of the Daily Journal. I heard this on the news Tuesday night and I couldnt have been more gratied. Finally, someone (Gov. Jerry Brown) gets it (by vetoing the budget) and state Controller John Chiang enforced Proposition 25. Kudos. On another related issue: I have admired and voted for Assemblyman Jerry Hill and agreed with him on many issues. However, I must atly disagree with him when he was interviewed on the news stating he did not support the pay cut. Welcome to the real world California Legislature. Dont do your job?

Difficulties of the Chamber of Commerce


Editor, It is discouraging to read that the Redwood City Chamber of Commerce has been ned $3,000 for failing to report almost $25,000 in expenses to defeat a proposition opposed to lling the Bay. The chamber has been having difculty affording contributions to civic activities such as Fourth of July celebrations, parades and Christmas programs. One wonders if the cash strapped Chamber received gifting from the Saltworks carpetbaggers. It has been suggested that our Chamber of Commerce is in the pocket of the Saltworks people, but that seems hard to believe.

gain we ask: Why is America the most militaristic nation on Earth? Why do U.S. taxpayers shell out more than $1 trillion per year for war-making power, when other nations bear only tiny fractions of this burden? The official U.S. Pentagon budget and supplemental appropriations total about $700 billion per year but this doesnt include costly care for veterans, or huge interest on past military spending done with borrowed money, or nuclear weapons research, or military aid to allies and other large add-ons. The grand total is well beyond $1 trillion annually. The federal government is drowning in terrible debt. So far, the only solution offered by Republicans is to slash the humane safety net that sustains American families. Why wont leaders reduce the gigantic military instead a military much larger than needed? The threat of invasion by a foreign army is minuscule. Todays enemies are tiny cliques of hidden suicide-fanatics. Monster-size armies, navies and air forces are ineffective against little secret cells. Commando squads and cruising drones deal with them best. ... Retiring Defense Secretary Robert Gates questions the horrendous cost of Americas global militarism when other democracies around the world dont bankrupt themselves in the same manner. Why should America attempt to defend the whole world especially when so many U.S. invasions overseas turn into Vietnam-style quagmires? In April, the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute reported that Americas yearly military spending has nearly doubled since the Bush-Cheney administration took power in 2001. Two wars launched by the Bush-Cheney White House in Iraq and Afghanistan has cost taxpayers more than $1 trillion so far, the institute said. The federal government must reduce its ruinous overspending. It should be done by curbing the overblown military, not by damaging the people-helping safety net.

economy may last longer than previously thought. As a result, the stock market has fallen six of the last seven weeks. The S&P 500 is down 5.9 percent from its high for the year of 1363.61 in April. This is no longer looking like a small soft patch. Its beginning to look more like quicksand, said Lawrence Creatura, a stock portfolio manager at Federated Investors. The continued rise in rst-time claims for unemployment benets indicated little improvement in the job market since May, when there was a drop in the number of new jobs created. New applications for unemployment benets rose to 429,000 last week, from 420,000 the week before. 400,000 is the magic number and weve been above it for 11 weeks, Creatura said. Energy companies like Exxon Mobil and Chevron Corp. led the market downward after oil prices tumbled nearly 5 percent. Oil dropped after the International Energy Agency said 60 million barrels of oil would be released from reserves to make up for the loss of Libyan exports.

NEW YORK What began with a steep drop in the stock market ended with a modest decline Thursday. The Dow Jones industrial average lost just 60 points after being down nearly 240 points earlier in the day.

EU eases Greek access to funds


By Gabriele Steinhauser
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BRUSSELS The European Union said Thursday it would help Greece access billions of euros in EU development funds in an attempt to boost the countrys struggling economy and sweeten unpopular austerity measures ahead of a tight parliamentary vote. European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso said the EU was prepared to reduce the amount of money Greece has to come up with to co-fund projects under its regional funds to 15 percent, from the usual 50 percent. The Commission, which manages the funds, and other EU member states will also set up a program of technical assistance to make sure debt-laden Greece uses the money to stimulate economic growth and create new jobs. The EU funds are designed to help underdeveloped regions catch up with

richer parts of the 27-nation bloc. About (euro) 15 billion ($22 billion) is still available for Greece until 2013, but the country has been struggling to prove it can use the funds well and come up with matching nancing. EU leaders hope that the prospect of some EU funds which, in contrast to the rescue loans Greece has been receiving for the past year, do not have to be repaid will offer some hope to Greek citizens who have been suffering through a steep economic recession and unemployment above 16 percent. The Greek debt crisis, which has already spilled over into Ireland and Portugal and threatens to take a larger toll on the 17-country eurozone, has reached a new boiling point in recent weeks. Barely one year after rst being granted (euro) 110 billion in rescue loans from other eurozone countries and the International Monetary Fund, it has become clear that Greece will need tens of billions more to avoid defaulting on

its massive debts in the coming years. But eurozone governments have blocked a nal deal on a new aid package as well as the payment of a crucial (euro) 12 billion installment of the existing bailout until the Greek parliament passes (euro) 28 billion in additional spending cuts, tax increases, economic reforms and public asset sales. The new measures, which will allow Greece to meet the decit targets set out in its bailout program, have sparked sometimes violent protests and been strictly opposed by the conservative opposition party. In their statement Thursday night, the leaders said the comprehensive package of reforms must be nalized as a matter of urgency in the coming days for the new funds to be disbursed. Earlier in the day, they also piled pressure on Greek opposition leader Antonis Samaras, who was in Brussels for a meeting of European conservatives, to back the new measures.

Oracles profit tops Street, worries surface


By Jordan Robertson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Oracle Corp.s latest quarterly results Thursday underscore the critical role its software business plays, despite the companys push to become a more well-rounded technology vendor by selling computer servers. Oracles net income increased 36 percent as new sales of business software were at the high end of its expectations. Revenue rose 13 percent.

But the companys stock fell as its hardware division stumbled. The stock rebounded somewhat after Oracle issued guidance that was in-line with analysts predictions. Oracle bought fallen Silicon Valley star Sun Microsystems last year for $7.3 billion. That thrust Oracle into the computer server business. The transformation has made CEO Larry Ellison one of the worlds richest men. It also made an enemy of longtime partner Hewlett-Packard Co.

Ellison has repeatedly said that he wants to focus Suns business only on higher-prot deals. As a result, he has warned, some lower-margin deals may fall off. Now that Oracle has had Sun for a full year, the effect of Ellisons strategy is coming into focus. Oracle said its net income was $3.21 billion, or 62 cents per share, in its scal fourth quarter, which ended May 31. That compares with $2.36 billion, or 46 cents per share, a year ago.

Yahoo chairman defends CEO to shareholders dismay


By Michael Liedtke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Yahoo Inc. Chairman Roy Bostock sought to defuse speculation about CEO Carol Bartzs job security at the Internet companys annual shareholders meeting Thursday, only to have it ignited again at the end of the session by an exasperated investor. After Bostock opened the meeting with an endorsement of Bartzs perform-

ance, the unhappy investor ended it with a ve-minute condemnation of Yahoos CEO and the entire board of directors. The investor identified himself as someone who personally owns some Yahoo stock and advises funds that own several million of the companys shares. The Associated Press couldnt verify his identify because Yahoo banned reporters from the meeting held at a Santa Clara hotel, telling the media to listen to a webcast of the event instead.

During his unattering critique, the investor described Bartz as a lame duck who should be immediately bought out of a four-year contract that expires in January 2013. He also called upon Yahoos board to consider a variety of dramatic steps, including breaking up or selling the company to lift the stock. Yahoos shares have been lagging the rest of the market for so long that Bartz still hasnt hit any of the price targets set for her when she was hired nearly 2 1/2 years ago.

Gamecocks on Friday and again Saturday to reach next weeks best-of-three nals. The loss ends an improbable postseason run for California (38-23), which started the year with its program scheduled to be dropped in 2012 for budgetary reasons. A $9 million fundraising effort saved the program. Kenny Swab singled and came around to score on a three-base error to start Virginias

OMAHA, Neb. Unbeaten Tyler Wilson carried a shutout into the eighth inning, Virginia used a four-run sixth to break open a close game and the No. 1-seeded Cavaliers eliminated California from the College World Series with a 8-1 victory on Thursday night. Virginia (56-11) will face defending national champion South Carolina in the Bracket 2 final. The Cavs would need to beat the

big sixth inning. Wilson (10-0) allowed ve hits over his career-high 7 2-3 innings. Cal starter Dixon Anderson (4-4) took the loss, failing to get past the third inning for the third time in ve starts. Virginia, which batted .246 with just three extra-base hits in its rst two CWS games, got 11 hits off ve pitchers. Five of those hits came as the Cavaliers extended their lead to 6-0 in the sixth. Swab scored after Darrel Matthews mis-

played the bounce on his hard drive into center eld and the ball rolled to the wall. The play was scored a single and three-base error. It was Matthews rst error in 50 games this season.

Looking to end drought


Its been 12 years since U.S. women captured World Cup

Bills will force NFL settlement


here are about a billion reasons to be optimistic the NFL will be open for business as usual this season. That's how much Jerry Jones shelled out for his palace in Dallas. The Cowboys owner is hardly pinching pennies or scrounging through his jewelry box for a Super Bowl ring to pawn as the lockout stretches into a fourth month and threatens the start of training camp. But NFL owners are facing debts like they never have before, and even the hard-liners in the bunch cant ignore its a costly battle. If theres no football, theres no cash. Its a process, and you have to let the process work and keep working through it, Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay said as he and other owners left a ve-hour meeting where they were briefed on a number of bargaining issues. But I know its better when you have labor peace on both sides. Better when you can come to a deal on your own terms, too, rather than having it imposed on you by a judge. The owners had always banked on winning the court battle that would allow them to extend the lockout until the players gave in. Whether that took a month or a year didnt really matter so long as the owners got the deal they wanted. A deal that would allow them to pay the bills for those sparkling new stadiums in Dallas, New York and Houston, and build even better ones in Minneapolis, San Francisco and maybe even Los Angeles. A deal that would ensure the values of their franchises, already worth an average of $1 billion, continue to skyrocket. Then federal appeals Judge Kermit Bye uttered the words that gave the owners their biggest scare since players won the right to free agency almost 20 years ago.

The last time the United States won the Womens World Cup, Mia Hamm and Julie Foudy were still playing, Abby Wambach had just led Florida to the NCAA title and Alex Morgan was all of 10. That 1999 title is so far in the distance, in fact, that captain Christie Rampone is the only current U.S. player who was part of the watershed tournament. Its been way too long 12 years since we brought home that trophy, goalkeeper Hope Solo said. Twelve years is a long time. Ending that drought is the Americans sole objective at the Womens World Cup, which begins Sunday and runs through July 17 in nine cities across Germany. One of the four top seeds, the U.S. opens group play Tuesday against North Korea in Dresden, then faces Colombia on July 2 in Sinsheim, and Sweden on July 6 in Wolfsburg. Two-time defending champion Germany and Brazil, silver medalist at the last two Olympics and runner-up at the 2007 World Cup, are also top seeds, as is Japan. Everyone has the nal game on our minds, and winning it, Wambach said. But we cant skip any steps to get there. Despite coming up short at the last two World Cups, the Americans havent exactly been in a slump. Theyve won the last two Olympic gold medals, and begin the World Cup as the No. 1 team in the world. They have the worlds best goalkeeper in Solo, and one of the best goal-scorers in Wambach. Yet the Americans arent the juggernaut they once were. Part of that is a credit to other countries, many of whom are seeing the results of the additional resources they poured into their programs over the last decade. But the U.S. has also been uncharacteristically inconsistent as of late, particularly over the last year. After going more than two years without a loss, the U.S. dropped three games in ve

Warriors draft big shooting guard Klay Thompson


By Antonio Gonzalez
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND The Golden State Warriors drafted Washington State shooting guard Klay Thompson with the 11th pick in the NBA draft Thursday night, adding another potent shooter to an already crowded backcourt. Thompson led the Pac-10 with 21.6 points per game to go with 4.8 rebounds and 2.6 assists last season. The 6-foot-7 guard gives some size to the

smaller Stephen CurryMonta Ellis duo, although hes also another perimeter player not known for defense. Golden States revamped front ofce insisted the biggest need this summer was defense and reboundKlay Thompson ing, and Thompson will do little to improve those areas.

General manager Larry Riley also said he would take the most talented player no matter the position, and he followed through with that approach. Riley believes Thompson will be a rotation player and strong contributor off the bench. He also said Thompson could see more time at small forward behind Dorell Wright, who is coming off a breakout year. When we talked about defense and rebounding, we also said that we had several areas to solve, Riley said. One was depth, one was

defense and one was rebounding. So weve solved a little bit of the depth issue. Basically, we have an inside presence issue that we have yet to solve. The selection will do little to quiet the growing trade talk surrounding Golden States star player. Ellis, the Warriors leading scoring last season at 24.1 points per game, is part of a talented tandem with Curry that is among the most prolic in scoring in the league. But the duo is easily one of

Lincecum returns to form Nats manager

Brian Wilson got three outs, despite allowing his rst run in 15 1-3 innings, for his 21st save in 23 chances. Brian Duensing (4-7) allowed just his sixth earned run in Tim Lincecum his last 22 2-3 innings. He yielded six hits, walked two and struck out ve. A very good pitching matchup, Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said. They just pitched a little better. Thats the Duensing we were looking for. He was consistent and has good stuff. Lincecum entered the game with the worst NL ERA (7.59) in June. He threw 72 of his 109 pitches for strikes in one of his most effective starts. He won for the rst time since May 27. Timmy was outstanding, Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. It was good to see him back on track. He was comfortable throwing any pitch and he had good rhythm. The Giants opened the scoring in the second inning. Pablo Sandoval singled with one out and Pat Burrell followed with a double. Sandoval scored on Tejadas ineld groundout. Duensing and reliever Alex Burnett got the Twins out of a tight spot in the

SAN FRANCISCO Tim Lincecum needed a psychological boost. When he got it, his fastball command returned. Lincecum struck out 12 in seven superb innings, helping the San Francisco Giants beat the Minnesota Twins 2-1 Thursday. I wasnt worried about what would happen when I threw pitches, said the two-time Cy Young Award winner. It was just condence. Early in the game, when I was commanding the zone, I just opened my mind to be that much more condent. Miguel Tejada and Cody Ross drove in runs for the Giants, who won their second straight following a season-long ve-game skid. Michael Cuddyer extended his hitting streak to 12 games with three hits and RBI for Minnesota, which lost its second in a row after a season-best eight-game win streak. The Twins are 15-4 since their last losing rut. Lincecum (6-6) rebounded from a rash of poor starts. He gave up three hits, walked two and never allowed a runner past second base. Even when I threw a bullpen I wanted to have belief in myself, Lincecum said. I wanted that to carry over into games. I was executing my pitches and believing in what I threw at the moment. Javier Lopez pitched the eighth and

seventh. The Giants had runners on rst and third with no outs and failed to score after pinch-runner Emmanuel Burriss was caught trying to score on a safety squeeze and pinch-hitter Nate Schierholtz grounded sharply to second with the ineld in. That guy was lthy, Duensing said of Lincecum. Thats how you win Cy Young awards. He has really good stuff, gets ahead in the count a lot and made us chase a lot. Burnett hit Aaron Rowand with a pitch but then got Bill Hall to y out. Ross added an RBI single in the eighth against Glen Perkins. NOTES: Bochy said there would be a little bias when it came to All-Star roster additions when asked about RHP Ryan Vogelsong. ... The Twins activated RHP Joe Nathan after the game and plan to activate INF Jim Thome. RHP Jim Hoey was optioned to Triple-A Rochester to make room. ...

As first basemen struggle

Mets 4, As 1
was in 2006, for only one game. As manager Bob Melvin appreciated Ellis effort. Well, heres a second baseman with a terrific amount of range. You want him to err on the side of Mark Ellis a g g r e s s i v e n e s s , Melvin said. I thought he was ne. The first time you have to do that on a major league eld, I dont know how long its been for him. In the sixth, the As made a doubleChris Carter switch and inserted Chris Carter at rst base a highly touted minor leaguer, he was promoted from Triple-A Sacramento and arrived at the ballpark in midmorning after an all-night ight from the West. Carters rst play was a foul popup by Reyes with two outs that he dropped near the stands for an error as Weeks brushed against him. Reyes, the NLs top hitter, slapped the next pitch from Craig Breslow for an RBI single.

NEW YORK The rst try for the new first baseman of the Oakland Athletics went a little awry. Mark Ellis and Chris Carter each had trouble with balls hit by Jose Reyes, and the mistakes helped the New York Mets beat the As 4-1 on a dreary Thursday. A day after full-time rst baseman Daric Barton was demoted to the minors because of a slump, Ellis started at the spot for the rst time in his nine-season career. A little nervous before the game and it took me a little while to get used to it, the longtime second baseman admitted. The Mets led 2-0 when the speedy Reyes opened the fth with a grounder and Ellis ranged much too far to his right, missing the ball and leaving the bag uncovered. Second baseman Jemile Weeks made a clean pickup, but zipped a throw past scrambling pitcher Graham Godfrey (1-1) for an error. A sacrice set up Daniel Murphys RBI single with two outs. Obviously, one ball just took over. After a stab, I knew I made a mistake, Ellis said. Just one of those things where the more youre out there, the better youre going to be. The last time Ellis played rst base

Yeah, he jostled me. It hit off my glove, Carter said. Said Reyes: You dont have too many opportunities like that in the big leagues. After the start of the game was delayed by rain for 2 hours, 15 minutes, the Mets won their second in a row. They beat the As on Wednesday night in a rain-interrupted game that took 13 innings and ended after midnight. Chris Capuano (6-7) shut out the As on ve hits for six innings, walking none and striking out seven. He left with discomfort in his abdomen and Pedro Beato relieved to begin the seventh. Francisco Rodriguez closed for his 20th save in 23 chances, a day after blowing a ninthinning lead. Reyes hit a pair of RBI singles and also scored a run. Coco Crisp had a sacrice y in the Oakland eighth. The Mets took a 2-0 lead in the second. Capuano grounded into a double play with the bases loaded and Reyes hit an RBI single. NOTES: Hideki Matsui sat out for the As. Normally a DH, he played the outeld for the rst time this season and did quite well in the opening two games of the series. Hes likely to start twice in the outeld this weekend at Philadelphia.

WASHINGTON Washington Nationals manager Jim Riggleman abruptly resigned from one of the hottest teams in baseball Thursday, saying he felt the franchise wasnt committed to him over the long term. Riggleman quit because the Nationals werent prepared to pick up the option on his contract for next year, further reinforcing his feeling that he was merely a placeholder manager until the team could nd someone better. Its been brewing for a while, Riggleman said in a clubhouse that went from festive to stunned after completing a sweep of the Seattle Mariners. I know Im not Casey Stengel, but I do feel like I know what Im doing. Its not a situation where I felt like I should continue on such a short lease. His decision caught the franchise by surprise. General manager Mike Rizzo said hell announce Friday who will manage the team this weekend during a road series against the Chicago White Sox. Jim told me pregame today that if we wouldnt pick up his option, then he wouldnt get on the team bus today, Rizzo said. I felt that the time wasnt right for me to pick up the Jim Riggleman option, and certainly todays conversation put to me in the way it was put to me, you certainly cant make that decision in a knee-jerk reaction. Its too big of a decision. Rigglemans version of events was slightly different. He said he requested that he and Rizzo have a conversation about his contract when the team arrived in Chicago. Regardless, Riggleman said he would have resigned had that conversation not resulted in some sort of contract security. I just felt if theres not going to be some type of commitment, then there obviously never will be, Riggleman said. Im just not the guy that they thought they could move forward with. Riggleman has been working on one-year deals since taking over for Manny Acta in July 2009. He was being paid $600,000 this year and the Nationals held a team option for 2012 at $600,000. I tell ya, Ive been in this 10 years, Riggleman said. Maybe Ill never get another opportunity, but I promise you Ill never do it on a one-year deal again. ... You dont bring people in on a one-year deal. Im sure they will never do it here. When they get the guy they want, it wont be on a one-year deal. Riggleman is the second manager in the majors to resign this week. Florida Marlins manager Edwin Rodriguez quit Sunday, but his team was struggling and in last place in the NL East. Rizzo said he and Riggleman had discussed the contract situation several time this season, but Rizzo said he felt it was too early in the season to commit to Riggleman for next year, even though the Nationals have won 11 of 12 and are above .500 this late in the season for the rst time since 2005. We should be celebrating going to Chicago, Rizzo said. Im disappointed that this is a distraction, that this is not thinking of the team rst, that it is thinking of personal goals, thinking of personal things rst. Thats probably what disappoints me the most. Riggleman didnt care for Rizzos thoughts about waiting for the right time. Timing? Come on, Riggleman said. Thats like Im not going to get married until I have a steady job. Youll never get married. You make the decision you feel is right and Mike felt the decision was to not move forward with me. The players had no idea this was coming. They found out when Rizzo informed them in the clubhouse after the 1-0 win over the Mariners. All expressed varying degrees of surprise and disappointment, although Jayson Werth tried to make it sound as if it didnt matter. Its not going to change anything in here, Werth said. Were the ones that have been making the pitches and hitting the balls and winning the ballgames, so were going to keep going. The 58-year-old Riggleman previously managed San Diego, the Chicago Cubs and Seattle, spending parts of 12 seasons in the dugout overall. He has a career 662-824 record, including 140-172 with the Nationals. Riggleman guided the Cubs to the 1998 NL wild-card spot and was let go after the next year. Riggleman later was the bench coach for the Los Angeles Dodgers and Seattle. He took over as the Mariners manager midway through the 2008 season but was not retained when the season ended.

Sharks sign Setoguchi to 3-year deal


By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The San Jose Sharks once again signed a key player before he could test the free agent market, agreeing Thursday to a $9 million, three-year deal with forward Devin Setoguchi. Setoguchi was eligible to become a restricted free agent July 1 but wanted to stay in San Jose. The feeling was mutual as the Sharks got the deal done early. I couldnt be happier right now, Setoguchi said on a conference call. San Jose is such a great place to play. The organization is great. The team is top-notch. All the way

through, its the best place to play in the National Hockey League. The Sharks have traditionally done a good job locking up their key players without allowing them to test

the market. San Jose signed star forward Patrick Marleau to a $27.6 million, four-year deal a week before he could have become an unrestricted free agent last summer and gave cenhad the option of buying four more tickets to home games. An attempt to reach White through The Daily was unsuccessful. USC declined to comment Thursday. To this day, its something Im ashamed about, White wrote. Rent was overdue, and my household bills were delinquent. I needed the money to live. So accepting the $14,000 in different forms of benets over my college years three decades ago was an act of survival. White wrote that his older brother, Tim, also a USC football player, introduced him to a wealthy supporter of the Trojans who made the payments without the coaches knowledge.

ter Joe Pavelski a $16 million, fouryear contract before he became a restricted free agent. Captain Joe Thornton signed a $21 million, threeyear contract in October rather than be able to test free agency this summer. Now they have reached a deal to keep Setoguchi in the fold for three more years. Were very fortunate that our players know when youre building a team and weve treated our players pretty consistently over the years, general manager Doug Wilson said. The guys who want to be here help us to the best of their abilities with contracts that are fair.

ly an example of that. Setoguchi got paid $1.8 million last season when he got off to a lackluster start before nishing with 22 goals and 19 assists in the regular season. He added seven goals and three assists in the playoffs, including overtime goals to beat Los Angeles and Detroit in the rst two rounds. The 24-year-old forward scored 15 goals in his nal 33 games, while playing mostly on the top line with Thornton and Marleau. Hes obviously a very talented player who certainly has shown what hes capable of in the last half of the year and the playoffs, Wilson said. gering the most notorious brawl in NBA history when he jumped into the stands and attacked a fan while playing for the Indiana Pacers in November 2004. He was suspended for the rest of that season. Artest wouldnt be the rst NBA player to make a change to an unusual name. Lloyd Bernard Free, who played in the league from 1975-88, had his rst name legally changed to World in 1981. A friend had given him the nickname because of his 44-inch vertical leaps and 360-degree dunks. In the NFL, Cincinnati Bengals star Chad Johnson legally changed his last name to Ochocinco in August 2008. The name means eight ve in Spanish.

We feel hes an important piece trending in the right direction and were happy to have this deal done. Setoguchi has 84 goals in four seasons in the NHL, including a careerhigh 31 two years ago. He also has 75 assists in 267 games and has one of the best shots on the Sharks. Theres still a lot of room for me to improve, he said. The one thing would be the consistency part of my game. Thats the one thing were really trying to work on with my trainers and overall Im still growing as a player and a person. I feel like Im gaining experience with every year that I play. Autosport, will test the new IndyCar prototype chassis later this year. Project manager Tony Cotman made the announceDan Wheldon ment Thursday. Wheldon and Herta, former teammates on Michael Andrettis team, paired up again for one race in May and wound up winning the seasons biggest title when race leader JR Hildebrand made a rookie mistake. Hildebrand went too high through the nal turn of the last lap, and Wheldon passed Hildebrands crashed car on the front straightaway to win his second 500 crown. The new chassis is scheduled to debut next season. Testing will take place in August and September. Teams are scheduled to get their new equipment by Dec. 15.

from where he starred at St. Patricks High School in Elizabeth, Irving showed no signs of the toe injury on his right foot that limited him to 11 games last season as he walked up the stairs to shake hands with Commissioner David Stern. I didnt have any doubts about going to No. 1. I was looking to the organization to pick who they felt was the right choice, Irving said. But now to this moment, from being a fan of the NBA draft and now being drafted, its a special feeling in my heart and knowing that my friends and family were together, its a memory Im going to remember for the rest of my life. Beijing, but only eight have played in a World Cup. Should the U.S. win its group, it would face the runner-up in Group B Japan, New Zealand, Mexico and England. A potential showdown with Germany looms for the seminals. They just havent shown that normal consistency of excellence that the U.S. is known for, said Tony DiCicco, the U.S. coach in 1999 who is now an analyst for ESPN, which will broadcast live all 32 matches from Germany. (The team) has had great games and then all of (a) sudden it has a game that seems sub-par. Im not sure why that is. Injuries have been a big factor in the Americans ckleness. Solo missed qualifying after having shoulder surgery in September, and didnt return until March. Wambach missed Four Nations with a heel injury. Heather Mitts, one of the teams best defendThis is no way effects the potential for us to trade any player, as far as that goes, Riley said about trading Ellis. I shouldnt say potential. I should say motivation to trade any player. That may be a little stronger statement for you. Some believe Thompson might be the best pure shooter in the draft. He was in consideration for conference player of the year before Arizonas Derrick Three of the rst six players taken were from Europe, capitalizing on the absence of some American college players who might have gone in their spots and made this a stronger draft. It was the rst time four international players who didnt play at a U.S. college were selected in the lottery. Even Irving has international ties. He was born in Australia while his father, Drederick, played professionally there and said he might be interested in playing for the Australian national team. After grabbing him with their rst No. 1 pick since taking James in 2003, the Cavs used the ers, struggled with a hamstring early in the year. Lindsay Tarpley, a key player in the mideld, was ruled out of the World Cup just last month after tearing her right ACL with 15 minutes left in a tune-up game against Japan. Slow starts havent helped. Morgan scored in the 83rd minute against China in October to salvage a 1-1 draw and preserve the Americans six-year unbeaten streak at home. Her goal in stoppage time gave the U.S. a much-needed 1-0 win in the rst playoff game against Italy. Lauren Cheney scored in stoppage time to lift the team to a 1-0 victory over Mexico in a June 5 send-off match. Our biggest weakness has been how we start the games, Rampone said. We have acknowledged it and now we are working on it and implementing things to start quicker. We know we cant afford any (slow starts) in Germany. I think we are ready and weve had enough time together and were hitting our Williams pulled away late in the regular season. Thompson also had off-court troubles following his arrest in early March after a game for investigation of marijuana possession that certainly didnt help his cause. He was suspended for a game and made a public apology before the regular-season nale against UCLA. Thompson returned for the Pac-10 tournament and scored a tournament-record 43 points in a loss to Washington.

Cavaliers take Irving with No.1 pick in NBA draft


By Brian Mahoney
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEWARK, N.J. Kyrie Irving traveled just a few miles down the road to become the No. 1 pick in the NBA draft. The players that followed him came from across the globe. The Cleveland Cavaliers selected Irving with the No. 1 pick in a draft lled with internationals, condent his foot is healthy enough to lead the rebuilding effort that follows LeBron James departure. Loudly cheered by family and friends not far

No. 4 selection on Texas forward Tristan Thompson. They were the rst team since the 1983 Houston Rockets with two top-four picks. The Minnesota Timberwolves took Arizona forward Derrick Williams with the No. 2 pick. The Utah Jazz then took Turkish big man Enes Kanter third with their rst of two lottery selections. The leagues uncertain labor situation hung over the draft, and likely weakened it. Potential top-10 picks such as Jared Sullinger of Ohio State and Harrison Barnes were among those who decided to stay in school, without knowing when their rookie seasons would have started. stride on the eld. Were now playing our way. And if the U.S. hits its stride, look out. After losing the opening game in Beijing to Norway, the Americans outscored their next ve opponents 12-3, including a 1-0 overtime victory against Brazil in the gold medal game. Even in a year when theyve struggled, the Americans have posted six shutouts in 11 games, and outscored opponents 23-8. Ive talked with (teammates) about it, what everyone needs to do in order to win, Wambach said. It comes down to playing well all the time and getting some lucky breaks. Really, luck plays so much into it. To win any championship in the world, you need some luck, too. What I do know is this team has the heart and the will and the desire to win. New owners Joe Lacob and Peter Guber have shown they arent afraid to take risks since they bought the franchise last fall for a league-record $450 million. They pulled Jerry West out of retirement to be a front-ofce consultant, hired sports agent Bob Myers as assistant general manager and future GM, and added broadcaster Mark Jackson as coach despite his lack of previous experience. Draft night was no different.

The U.S. had to win a home-and-home playoff with Italy just to get to Germany. The United States lost to Sweden in the Four Nations opener, though it did go on to win the tournament, and then was beaten by England for the rst time since 1988. And now the Americans take a relatively inexperienced squad into the World Cup, where the stadiums will be loud and the pressure intense.

PORTLAND, Ore. Nike Inc. is being blasted for replacing its signature Just Do It slogan on some Tshirts with the phrases Dope, Get High and Ride Pipe. The shoe and athletic apparel company said the terms are part of the lingo used by the skaters, snowboarders and participants in other extreme sports its trying to target with the shirts. But critics say the slogans endorse drug use. Bostons mayor has asked Nike to remove a display of the shirts. And an Oregon antidrug group condemned them in a letter sent to 1,500 people including some at The White House Ofce of National Drug Control Policy urging them to let Nike

know they disapprove of the slogans. Its gone past edgy, said Tom Parker, spokesman for the Oregon Partnership. Sure it is the language of skateboarders and surfers, but its also the language of addicts. Bostons mayor Thomas M. Menino this week sent a letter to the general manager of a Niketown store in a popular shopping district in Boston after he saw the shirts in the store window. He asked that they be taken down, saying the company failed to take drug abuse seriously. Your window display of T-shirts with drug and profanity wordplay are out of keeping with the character of Bostons Back Bay, our entire city and our aspirations for our young people ... not to mention common sense, Menino said in the letter. Willingly giving up cash cant be easy for the owners. In past negotiations, the heads of the richest clubs would have fought such concessions as if it were fourth-andgoal. And they still might. Asked if there was a consensus for the proposals among the owners, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell didnt say yes. He didnt say no, though, either. The outlook doesnt ofcially get bleak until games are canceled, yet owners are getting an idea of the hit theyll take if the lockout goes on much longer. NFL employees have had their salaries trimmed by 12 percent since April, and seven teams have instituted pay cuts or furloughs. Jones and the owners of the other deep-pocket teams may be able to hold on, but for how long? Its telling that Jones and Carolina Panthers owner Jerry Richardson, another traditional hard-liner, have been active participants in the negotiations in recent weeks. Its equally telling that Goodell and the labor committee left the meeting with the owners and headed straight to another with players association chief DeMaurice Smith on Wednesday. The membership has a strong view of the priorities and what we need to do, and a determination to get there, Goodell said. Time is moving quickly for everyone to get this done. Because time is money, and right now both are being wasted.

We will keep with our business, Bye told owners and players alike earlier this month, and if that ends up with a decision, its probably something both sides arent going to like. What a coincidence. After all those months of bluster and posturing, of insisting it was impossible to nd agreement on an equitable split of $9 billion something most fans could have managed over a pizza and a case of beer theres been so much progress these last three weeks it seems the question is not if a deal gets done, but when. Not only would owners relent on their demand for an increase in expense credits, the money theyve taken off the top of the pot to pay for conducting league business, theyd drop the credits altogether. (Explain why such credits were needed in the rst place, though, when teams have been wheedling gifts out of taxpayers all these years.) The owners also would agree to a salary oor, preventing less-successful franchises from protecting their bottom lines by trotting out rosters of low-rent players. Not every owner has to spend like Jones or Dan Snyder, but you couldnt be the NFLs equivalent of the Pittsburgh Pirates, either.

Pixars track record has been close to impeccable for turning out intelligent, emotionally rich, beautifully detailed animated lms, with plenty of humor and heart to appeal to movie lovers of all ages. But the weak link in the

chain, at least from a narrative standpoint, has always been 2006s Cars, with its twodimensional talking autos and hokey, borrowed tale of smalltown life. Sure, it was bright and zippy, which was enough to appeal to the little ones, and it became a merchandising juggernaut.

MUSEUM GOTTA SEE UM


By Susan Cohn
DAILY JOURNAL SENIOR CORRESPONDENT

TIM BURTON. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art presents a major retrospective exploring the full range of Film Director Tim Burtons creative work, as a director, artist, illustrator, photographer and writer. Burton, born in Burbank in 1958, studied at the California Institute of the Arts (CalArts), where he worked as an animator at the Walt Disney Studios before breaking out on his own. Taking inspiration from popular culture, fairy tales and traditions of the gothic, Burton reinvented Hollywood genre lmmaking as an expression of a personal vision, producing Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Edward Scissorhands, The Corpse Bride, among many other remarkable works. The exhibition brings together over 700 drawings, paintings, photographs, movingimage works, storyboards, puppets, concept artworks, maquettes, costumes and cinematic ephemera, including art from a number of unrealized and little-known personal projects. Many of these objects come from the directors own archive, as well as from studio archives and private collections of Burtons collaborators. Hundreds of never-beforeexhibited artworks and sketches are joined by a selection of lm posters accompanied by music composed for the exhibition by Burtons longtime collaborator Danny Elfman. In conjunction with the exhibition, LACMA also invited the lmmaker to ll a gallery with works of his choosing from the permanent collection. Tim Burton Selects brings together an idiosyncratic array of graphic works chosen by Burton in consulta-

tion with the curatorial staff. Two large-scale outdoor artworks are also installed on campus: a topiary inspired by Edward Scissorhands (1990), and Balloon Boy, an enormous gure based on an amalgamation of characters that Burton rst introduced in his 1997 book The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy and Other Stories. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art is located at 5905 Wilshire Blvd., Los Angeles. For more information visit www.lacma.org or call (323) 857-6000. Tim Burton runs through Oct. 31, 2011. *** COLLECTIVELY ALONE, an exhibition of photo-based oil paintings by Sherry Karver, opens at the Peninsula Museum of Art with a reception on July 10 (Sunday, 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.) Karver mounts her black and white images on top of large, thick wood panels, then hand paints them with many layers of oil glazes to build up the color, combining the old-master technique of glazing with contemporary photo/digital technology. She personalizes the people in her photos by imagining their stories and superimposing the texts over their images. These brief stories about the gures are purely imaginary, based solely on appearance or attitude, and the gures wear their stories almost like clothing. These biographies include a bit of invented history about the person, where they are from, what they do, their hopes, dreams and often something humorous or embarrassing. Karver said, I was born and raised in Chicago, so my work is informed by city life and the multitude of issues we encounter: loneliness and alienation, personal identity

and the loss of it, the individual as part of a crowd, the passage of time and nding our own voice. My work embraces the contemporary nonlinear view of time with its randomness, spontaneity and chance occurrences. The gures are often in movement, metaphors for our journey through life a journey in which we are collectively alone. Karver has taught art at Laney College in Oakland since 1987. Her artworks are in more than 150 private and corporate collections. Peninsula Museum of Art is located in Belmonts Twin Pines Park. Hours are noon to 4 p.m., Wednesday through Sunday. For information please call 594-1577. Collectively Alone runs July 10 through Sept. 4. *** FOUR SAINTS IN THREE ACTS. In Paris in 1927, the young, little-known composer Virgil Thomson invited fellow expatriate artist Gertrude Stein to write a libretto he could set to music. Nearly a decade later, in the United States, the curtains nally rose on Four Saints in Three Acts (1934), an experimental milestone in 20th-century music as well as a Broadway hit in its day. Four Saints brought the zeitgeist

of bohemian Paris to America and helped usher modernism into mainstream culture. On the occasion of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Arts exhibition The Steins Collect: Matisse, Picasso and the Parisian Avant-Garde, SFMOMA and Yerba Buena Center for the Arts present a new production of Stein and Thomsons opera, titled Four Saints in Three Acts: An Opera Installation. YBCA Novellus Theater. Aug. 18 through 21. Tickets ($10$85). ybca.org or (415) 9782787. *** GERTRUDE STEIN IN PALO ALTO. Gertrude Stein seems to be in all the San Francisco museums right now (as well as in Woody Allens new movie, Midnight in Paris), but in 1935 she was in Palo Alto, to lecture at Stanford and visit her brother Michael Stein and his wife, Sarah, who were living at 433 Kingsley Ave. The 1889 Professorville house was featured on the 2010 Palo Alto Stanford Heritage Holiday House Tour.

WEEKEND JOURNAL
all off with the soulful and groundbreaking Toy Story back in 1995. This is not someone from whom you would expect empty glossiness. Here, working from a script by Ben Queen, Lasseter makes a transparent attempt at catering to the ever-expanding global moviegoing audience by having the hero of the original Cars, Lightning McQueen (voiced by Owen Wilson), compete in an international grand prix through Japan, France, Italy and Britain. The sponsor is a Richard Branson-type Range Rover-looking vehicle (Eddie Izzard); McQueens main rival is an arrogant Italian Formula 1 racecar (John Turturro). At the same time, Cars 2 panders to middle America by placing Mater, the rusty, awshucks tow truck, front and center. McQueen is ashier but this is Maters time to shine, as it were; Larry the Cable Guy, who voices the character, even gets top billing over Wilson. But a little of the comedians twangy shtick goes a long way for the audience, and for McQueen, who gets annoyed with Maters boorish behavior in all these rened settings. (Michael Caine and Emily Mortimer) seek to uncover whos behind the plot. For director Lasseter, the idea developed the same way as other aspects of the lm franchise that began with 2006s Cars, as he and his Pixar pit crew looked for ways to car-ify our world into one inhabited by talking automobiles. In a universe of cars, What would a bad guy do? Lasseter wondered. With An Inconvenient Truth and alternative fuels and all the things going on, I kept thinking, well, in their world, it could be neat to have sort of big oil versus alternative fuel, Lasseter said. It makes logical sense for a world where cars are alive. Based in environmentally conscious Northern California, Disney-owned Pixar has

journey, and mistakenly believe hes the American undercover operative theyre supposed to meet during their latest mission. This ties into a whole nother subplot involving alternative fuel sources and the German villain (Thomas Kretschmann) who has big plans to keep cars reliant on Big Oil. With all these new characters and various narrative strands competing for our attention, theres not much room for fun. Cars 2 is one thing a family-friendly summer blockbuster should never be: boring. Yes, it looks beautiful, lavishing in photorealism as so many Pixar movies do. In 3-D (because of course its in 3-D), the chase scenes have their thrilling moments, and the many shiny surfaces do have a tactile quality. Young kids at whom so much of this material is clearly aimed will probably enjoy the bright colors and incessant motion. But as the structure grows repetitive and Maters corny puns and malapropisms become tiresome, we like the anthropomorphized autos feel like were just spinning our wheels. their owner outgrows them, they end up recycled into a new home with a new kid. Such angles are byproducts of Pixars story process, though, not a green crusade. We dont make message movies, Lasseter said. We weave things in that are going on, that youre familiar with in the world, and kind of bring it into our stories. It really is all about, OK, how can we go about telling the most interesting story possible? said Cars 2 producer Denise Ream. But hey, if people come away with the sense of we need to treat the Earth better, I think thats great, because Im all for it. Along with returning stars Wilson and Larry the Cable Guy, the Cars 2 vocal cast includes John Turturro, Vanessa Redgrave, Tony Shalhoub and Bonnie Hunt.

Just try nding a kid who doesnt have some sort of Cars stuff. My 19-month-old son has a Lightning McQueen sippy cup and I have no idea how he got it these things just show up on their own. Thats how ubiquitous they are. So sure, why not make a sequel? Trouble is, Cars 2 is such a mess, it makes the original look like it ought to rank among Pixars masterpieces by comparison. What has set the studios lms apart from all the other animated fare is story: Its paramount. Innovative tales like WALL-E and Up get you choked up just thinking about them, theyre that good. Cars 2 tries to encompass many kinds of stories at once, none of which is terribly clever or compelling. And the fact that Pixar mastermind John Lasseter is back as director is the most bafing part of all. This is the man who kicked it

Cars 2
Director: John Lasseter,Brad Lewis Cast: Owen Wilson,Larry the Cable Guy ,Tony Shalhoub,Cheech Marin,Michael Caine Rated: G Grade:

Still, Mater is there to teach us some lessons about valuing the underdog. Or not judging people because we think theyre different or stupid. Or something. But wait, theres more. Cars 2 is also a James Bond spoof, with Michael Caine providing the voice of the elegant English sports car, superspy Finn McMissile. Finn and his rookie sidekick, Holley Shiftwell (Emily Mortimer), run into Mater, who has tagged along with McQueen on this globe-trotting irted with energy and ecological themes before. The 2008 sci- smash WALL-E was a wildly inventive cosmic romance between two adorable robots. Yet it also was a cautionary tale about pollution as plucky but rickety WALL-E, the last robot on Earth, toils to clean up the mess weve made of the planet after humans have ed to the stars. The 2001 buddy comedy Monsters, Inc. had a realm of scary beasts mired in an energy crisis until they switch to a more benign fuel source the laughter of children, rather than the screams of terror they once used to power their world. Even last years Toy Story 3 carried a nice salvage theme. After the toys have a terrifying brush with a waste-dump incinerator once

with a plot driven by oil vs. a cleaner alternative. Debuting in U.S. theaters Friday, Cars 2 sends race car Lightning McQueen (voiced by Owen Wilson) on a World Grand Prix circuit whose organizer fuels the vehicles with a green alternative called Allinol, prompting the bad guys to try to discredit the new power supply that threatens traditional gasoline. That lands Lightnings goofy, lovable pal Mater (Larry the Cable Guy) in the middle of a spy caper as two British secret agent cars

Story characters. Are those people some brand of genius that you cant really begin to fathom? Hanks said of Pixar, whose 11 feature-length animated lms have all been critical and commercial successes. As long as I dont develop a smokers cough, yeah, Im there. Whatever they need. Theres only one Woody, and its me. Along with winning six of the 10 Academy Awards for feature-length animation since that category was added, Pixar has earned 10 Oscar nominations for its short lms, winning three. Some of those short cartoons have preceded other Pixar feature lms on the big-screen, reviving a sense of the serial entertainment that Hollywood provided at cinemas in its early years. We really believe in the short film, said Pixars creative mastermind, John Lasseter, who received a special Oscar for 1995s Toy Story, the first computer-animated feature film. One, in the case of these, it just kind of keeps new animation of our favorite characters going. Secondly, for us internally, its a great way for us to let younger artists take the next step up in their career to try directing.

Playtime resumes for Toy Storyin short


By David Germain
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Entertainment brief
A Toy Story:Cars merchandise ubiquitous
NEW YORK In the Pixar pantheon of animated lms remarkable for their appeal to both adults and children, Cars is the most purely kiddie affair. While critics prefer the heartfelt resonance of Up or the mortality ruminations of Toy Story 3, toddlers have been far more amped by Cars. Since premiering in 2006, Cars has been a high-octane sensation among those whose feet still dont reach the gas pedal, and the Cars 2 sequel opening Friday is already driving a similar response. Take David W. Wright, a 40-year-old Floridian and the father of a 4-year-old Cars fanatic. Wright estimates he and his son have seen Cars easily a couple hundred times. There was a little while after maybe the rst 40 times where I was like, Ah, I cant watch this again, said Wright, who blogs about parenthood at BloggerDad.com. But eventually it comes full circle. I like it. His son is rewarded for good behavior at pre-school with a new Cars toy car. That goes along with his Cars shoes, blankets and books. The Wright familys experience is far from uncommon. Cars has attached itself to kid culture more than any other Pixar lm or even most childrens movies. While the Pixar connoisseur can trumpet the artistry of Ratatouille or the galactic romance of WALL-E, its nothing compared to the kiddie-clamor for Cars.

LOS ANGELES Woody the cowboy, Buzz Lightyear and their Toy Story pals are back on the big-screen in a new adventure. The voices of Tom Hanks, Tim Allen, Michael Keaton, Joan Cusack and other stars are featured in a Toy Story short film that runs before the Pixar Animation sequel Cars 2, which debuts in U.S. theaters Friday. Toy Story: H a w a i i a n Vacation has Hanks Woody, Allens Buzz, Cusacks Jessie the cowgirl and the other toys coming up with a scheme to give doll sweethearts Ken and Barbie (Keaton and Jodi Benson) the trip of their dreams. After lending his voice to the franchises three blockbuster feature-length lms, Hanks says hell keep coming back to do the voice of Woody whenever Disneyowned Pixar wants to do more with the Toy

WEEKEND JOURNAL
They keep a dictionary handy to translate words in case one of the little ones wants to know how to say something. Herrera-Set has two children in the program this year, both enrolled at Redwood Shores. Her daughter was excited at the chance to return to Spanish summer school. Those involved took the commitment one step further this year with an international book and enrichment fair. Parents who want their children to have access to other languages and cultures often have issues nding books or music written or performed by native speakers. Thats where the idea for this weekends event came from. There will also be familiar books like Star Wars translated into other languages. Its also a chance for interested parents to meet. The growing interest will be a factor in the upcoming school year. While the summer programs are only housed on district property, not run by the district, it is lling a service families want. The Belmont-Redwood Shores Elementary School District recently voted to create a no boundary system rather than assigning an address to a certain home school. Children will be enrolled based on a yet-to-be-outlined formula considering distance to a school and space. Doing so requires the district to hire a new employee to give the district enough personnel to research a magnet program, which could be immersion. The community again brought up the idea this year as a way to avoid boundary changes. The International Book and Enrichment Fair will take place from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Saturday, June 25 at the Redwood Shores Library, 399 Marine Parkway, Redwood City. For more information about the immersion camp options visit http://footstepschildcare.org. Footsteps also offers after school programs throughout the school year, some with Mandarin offerings. To get involved with Multilingual Kids visit http://www.multilingualkids.info/.

PROGRAM
Continued from page 1
We wanted some way for [the kids] to learn. We wanted to demonstrate our commitment through the summer program, she said. Grouped together under the moniker Multilingual Kids, the group of parents partnered with Footsteps Child Care to offer a summer program to one classroom worth of children last summer. With plans to grow slowly, this years offering of age-appropriate differentiated academic opportunities drew the need for three classrooms this summer at Nesbit and Redwood Shores elementary school campuses, said Footsteps Executive Director Karen Haas-Foletta. Footsteps offers a variety of summer programs, not all of which are conducted in a foreign language. Given the demand, it does offer a four-week Spanish immersion program based on academics, which is currently in session. The second four-week session, which has offerings of Mandarin or Spanish immersion, is like a traditional camp with arts, crafts and cultural activities. All instruction, however, is given in the chosen language. Three days into the academic session, children were speaking a few words in Spanish, reciting songs and counting in their new language. Patricia Alcocer, teacher of a class of incoming rst and second graders, was returning for the second summer. She noticed many returning students had taken outside language classes during the year. That made those students better helpers in the classroom for those new to the language. Im excited to see how the parents are really embracing bilingualism, Alcocer said. Parent Therese Dunne, whose two little ones are enrolled at Nesbit, added it has been a learning experience for the whole family. The Dunnes love to spend dinner together. Its a time when the children can share their experiences with mom and dad. Theyll ask, what does this mean? Dunne said.

DOG
Continued from page 1
Sicat and the woman engaged in a struggle, which ended when Sicat forcibly took the dog off its leash and ran away with it, Lee said. He was arrested the next day on suspicion of battery and robbery, and the dog was returned to its owner, Lee said. A subsequent investigation revealed that the dog is actually Sicats lost pet, Deputy District

Attorney Al Serrato said Thursday. The pet had been found and ended up at an animal shelter, where the woman legally adopted it and nursed it back to health, Serrato said. Sicat was released from custody and will not face criminal charges for robbery because his claim to the lost pet is a valid defense, Serrato said. He will not be charged with battery because the struggle was mutual, Serrato said. Since the woman legally adopted the dog, Sicat will have to pursue a civil case if he still wishes to reclaim it, Serrato said.

Your material prospects look more promising in the year ahead than they have for some time. Just so youre not wasteful with the excess, start a saving program. In time, youll be able to purchase something big.
CanCer (June 21-July 22) -- Sidestep making any

binding agreements if at all possible. There is an excellent chance that tomorrow you will see things from a totally different perspective. LeO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- If you need assistance for completing a job, be careful regarding the type of

help you solicit. Chances are youll get plenty of volunteers, but they might be more interested in showboating than working. VirGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Much inner turmoil is likely to be generated when you discover your trust in another has been sadly misplaced. Instead of inviting more trouble, rely on past experience as your guide. LiBra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Compromise is the key word for you, especially where domestic disagreements are concerned. Your attitude will play a critical role in the kind of responses youll get. SCOrPiO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- One of the more critical areas in which you need to be monitored is your tendency to stick your nostrils into situations or problems where youve not been invited. Dont miscalculate your place.

SaGiTTariuS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Keep a close

eye on your resources and how you handle them. Complacency or indifference could carry a high price tag if youre not willing to keep tabs on your spending habits. CaPriCOrn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Dont let your vanity or ego get in the way of your relationships with others. There are certain facets of your personality that could cause you to blurt out things you dont mean. aQuariuS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Youll do yourself a favor if you can face the fact that not everybody will be in accord with your viewpoints or positions. When you can accept this, you can accept others. PiSCeS (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Its nice to think well of people, but be wary of those whom you know from personal experience have previously exploited your gen-

erosity. People dont change, but you can become wiser. arieS (March 21-April 19) -- Keep a lid on your intensity and try to operate on a more placid wavelength. Once your forcefulness is set into motion, it could be extremely difficult to control. TauruS (April 20-May 20) -- The best way to figure out who is your worst enemy is to look in a mirror. What it boils down to is impatience and compulsive behavior that will prove to be self-defeating. GeMini (May 21-June 20) -- Operate as independently from others as you possibly can, because, for some unknown reason, your way of doing things and theirs will be diametrically opposed to each other. Know where to look for romance and youll find it. Copyright 2011, United Feature Syndicate, Inc.
