Ballot full of tax measures

Cities,school districts to ask voters for money,changes
By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
San Mateo County voters will decide on raising taxes to generate income for city budgets, affordable housing and school facilities with a number of measures on the November ballot. Foster City, San Mateo and
Redwood City put measures before voters either raising taxes or amending city plans. Four school districts San Mateo County Community College and San Mateo-Foster City, San Bruno and Millbrae elementary are seeking bond money to update facilities while Burlingame Elementary is asking for a parcel tax, revenue which could be used
for programs.
City measures
The Foster City Council is hoping to raise the hotel tax from 8 percent to 9.5 percent. Foster City ofcials opted for the measure in hopes of trimming the ongoing structural decit, now approaching $5 million. Such a measure could generate
about $250,000 annually. Raising the hotel tax is one of three measures that will go before Redwood City voters. The city is proposing increasing its transit occupancy tax from 10 percent to 12 percent, which could mean an additional $640,000 annually. In addition, the city is proposing an increase to its business
license tax which last changed in July 1994 as part of an ordinance calling for an annual 5 percent increase over ve years. The rate is currently $37 per business plus $24 for each full-time employee and $12 for each part-time employee. The recommended increase would change the tax to $59 per

Maryann Gonzales remembers well when Kaiser Permanente broke ground on its existing Redwood City hospital she had a prime view perched on top of a tractor. As the youngest nurse on staff
maybe 21 or 22, she recalls she was asked to sit on the equipment, white nurses dress and cap, for a photograph with the mayor. Now 67 years old and just past two years into retirement, Gonzales watched Friday as her dear friend Dr. Jim ODonnell, Kaisers chief of staff, and others afliated with the
health group saw the fruition of a 15-year dream to break ground on a new hospital abutting the current facility. What is now a two-acre plot of leveled dirt and caution tape, an excavated square and exposed metal

A handwritten note asking about the purchase of the car was left behind. The car was found two days later abandoned Jennifer in a Daly City parking lot Dickerson located across from where Dickerson was staying. A uniform for D&M Towing, the company which had fired Dickerson, was found inside. In November, a jury convicted Dickerson of the two felonies. During a court break following the verdicts, Dickerson ed the courthouse in Redwood City before Judge Barbara Mallach could rule on whether to revoke her $60,000 bail bond and remand her into custody. When Dickerson didnt return to the courtroom, Mallach waited a while but ultimately issued a bench warrant. Dickerson remained at large until Jan. 5 when authorities, acting on a tip, found her hiding in the attic of a home on Sunset Drive in San Bruno. When she blocked the attic entrance and refused to come down, a combination of officers from state parole, San Francisco police, the California Highway Patrol, U.S. Marshals and Daly City police broke through a different section of the ceiling and arrested her. Authorities reported nding methamphetamine in her bra and 3.5 ounces of the drug in clothing in her room. Police also arrested her ex-boyfriend Michael McDonald, who was present, on similar drug charges. Authorities found him in the garage, next to a stolen red Mustang he claimed to be hiding for Dickerson. He also allegedly had a small amount of methamphetamine in his possession. His trial is Nov. 14 and he remains in custody in lieu of $101,000 bail.

Cured of cancer, and trying to help

Musicians put on fundraiser at St.James Gate
By Rachel Lew
From left, Johnna Dereath, Paul Ledo and Deona Parfet at Ledos music studio.
Four years ago on Valentines Day, Deona Parfet was diagnosed with acute myelogenous leukemia, a fastgrowing cancer of the blood and bone marrow. She spent her 50th birthday at Stanford Hospital ghting for her life with several bone marrow biopsies, blood transfusions and chemotherapy. She was released on the Fourth of July that year. Parfet, a studio drummer all her life, is unofcially cured of leukemia, but is cured in her mind. In recent years, she wrote songs of her journey to inspire others. Say The Word Cured is a benet concert for children diagnosed with leukemia at St Judes Childrens Hospital. The fundraiser will take place at St. James Gate at 1410 Old
County Road in Belmont 3:30 p.m. Sunday. St. Judes Childrens Hospital is an international pediatric cancer center founded in 1962 by the late entertainer Danny Thomas, Parfet said. The institution, driven by public contributions, discovers cures for children with cancer through basic and clinical research and treatment. The center saves 80 percent of children diagnosed with leukemia annually, she added. We have all been profoundly touched by cancer at some point of our lives, said Parfet, a former member of New York-based rock band Holy War. There should be a cure for all children with leukemia. It is the action of doing something for them to create a little magic. Its what kids are all about: magic and just doing it. The benet concert will be hosted
by local Bay Area musicians who will perform original blues and rock songs. Solo artists will include Clara Dellino as singer and Ira Marlowe as singer and acoustic guitarist. Friend Ship members include Carl Malinowski on rhythm guitar, Ed Wilson on bass and Paul Ledo and Parfet on guitar. Chariot members include Ledo, Parfet and Johnna Dereath as singer, guitarist and keyboard. In addition, Eleanor Wellman, mother of Parfet, will be a special guest singer. In 2007, Parfet rst experienced severe symptoms of the u and was admitted to the emergency room of San Mateo Medical Center. She underwent a bone marrow biopsy and was prescribed antibiotics. Soon after she had an allergic reaction and proceeded to have a blood transfusion.

Court strikes health insurance requirement

Local briefs
Police make arrests in series of armed robberies
Three East Palo Alto residents are in custody for a series of armed robberies in multiple Peninsula cities in which they are alleged to have held up several people at gunpoint, according to San Mateo police. Two armed robberies took place in San Mateo on Aug. 6 and Aug. 8 and two took place in Belmont and Burlingame Aug. 10. Police are continuing to investigate if there are other crimes related to the suspects in custody. In each of the robberies, a gun was placed to the back of the victims head, according to police. Early Thursday morning, San Mateo police, with the assistance of East Palo Alto police and county sheriffs, arrested Marc Jordan, 23, Melissa Butler, 19, and a 16-year-old boy. Jordan and Butler were booked into the San Mateo County Jail for robbery, assaulted with a deadly weapon and conspiracy. The juvenile suspect was booked into the San Mateo County Juvenile Hall for the same charges, according to police. Anyone with information please contact Detective Mike Williams at 650-522-7655.
ATLANTA A federal appeals panel struck down the centerpiece of President Barack Obamas sweeping health care overhaul Friday, moving the argument over whether Americans can be required to buy health insurance a step closer to the U.S. Supreme Court. The divided three-judge panel of the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals concluded Congress overstepped its authority when lawmakers passed the so-called individual mandate, the rst such decision by a federal appeals court. Its a stinging blow to Obamas signature legislative achievement, as most experts agree the requirement that Americans carry health insurance or face tax penalties is the foundation for other parts of the law. Chief Judge Joel Dubina and Circuit Judge Frank Hull found in a 207-page opinion that lawmakers cannot require residents to enter into contracts with private insurance companies for the purchase of an expensive product from the time they
are born until the time they die. In a lengthy dissent, Circuit Judge Stanley Marcus accused the majority of ignoring the undeniable fact that Congress commerce power has grown exponentially over the past two centuries. He wrote that Congress generally has the constitutional authority to create rules regulating large areas of the national economy. The White House argued the legislative branch was using a quintessential power its constitutional ability to regulate interstate commerce, including the health care industry when it passed the overhaul law. Administration ofcials said they are condent the ruling will not stand. The Justice Department can ask the full 11th Circuit to review
the panels ruling and will also likely appeal to the Supreme Court. Individuals who choose to go without health insurance are making an economic decision that affects all of us when people without insurance obtain health care they cannot pay for, those with insurance and taxpayers are often left to pick up the tab, said White House adviser Stephanie Cutter. The 11th Circuits ruling, which sided with 26 states that had sued to stop the law from taking effect, is the latest contradictory judicial opinion on the health care debate. The federal appeals court in Cincinnati upheld the individual mandate in June, and an appeals court in Richmond has heard similar challenges to the law.
Amber Alert issued for girl taken by father

A statewide Amber Alert has been issued for a child that was abducted by her father in Sacramento on Sunday and the pair may be headed toward the Bay Area, FBI ofcials said Friday. Mourad Moni Samaan, 49, of Sacramento took his 2year-old daughter Madeline Samaan-Fey on Sunday and FBI investigators believe her life might be in jeopardy. Samaan has shared joint custody of Madeline with her mother and was served a legal notice to return the child late last week, but failed to return her, FBI ofcials said. The mother reported the child missing on Sunday to Sacramento police, who are working in conjunction with the Sacramento County Sheriffs Department and the FBI on the case. Madeline is 2 feet 8 inches tall with brown hair and brown eyes. Samaan, who is of Egyptian descent, is 5 feet 6 inches tall with black hair and brown eyes and is believed to be an accomplished Spanish speaker. He is known to drive a green Toyota 4Runner with California license plate No. 3XRM111. The FBI encourages anyone with information related to this case to call (916) 481-9110.

Report: California hate crime rate remains steady

Deputies search for burglary suspect

San Mateo County sheriffs deputies are searching for a burglary suspect who ed on foot from a Woodside intersection Friday afternoon. The suspect was last seen running west at 1:56 p.m. from the trafc stop at Portola and La Honda roads, sheriff's ofcials said. The Sheriffs Ofce describes the suspect as a white male who is 5 feet 8 inches tall with a shaved head, blue shirt, blue pants and white shoes.
SAN FRANCISCO The overall number of hate crimes in California remained steady last year, but the number targeting Hispanics jumped signicantly. A state Department of Justice report released Thursday said there were 1,107
reported crimes motivated by race, religion, sexual orientation and other forms of bias in 2010. Thats just seven more cases than in 2009. While hate crimes against Jews, blacks and the LGBT community decreased, the state said hate crimes against Hispanics increased by 47 percent. Ofcials recorded 119 anti-Hispanic crimes in 2010,
compared with 81 in the previous year. Experts said the jump can be attributed, in part, to the polarizing rhetoric prompted by an Arizona law targeting undocumented immigrants. The law, a portion of which was struck down by an appeals court, generated intense debate in the West that included a large number of anti-Hispanic remarks and sentiment.

Wall Streets ride compounds pension fears

Pregnant woman killed by dog
A pregnant Pacica woman was mauled and killed by her dog at her home early Thursday, police said. Pacica police ofcers found an unresponsive 32-year-old Darla Napora lying in the front room suffering from major trauma and not breathing when they responded to a home in the 500 block of Reina Del Mar Avenue shortly after 12:15 p.m. The victims husband Greg had come home from work and found their 2-year-old pit bull hovering over his wifes body on the living room oor. He told police the dog had attacked his wife while he was at work. Ofcers began performing CPR before Pacica Fire Department and San Mateo County paramedics arrived and pronounced her dead at the scene. ALBANY, N.Y Wall Streets volatility has hit state pension funds just as they were beginning to recover from the recession, turning what was merely a troubled forecast into a potentially stormy future for taxpayers who are on the hook for billions in unfunded liabilities for government retirees. As for the millions of government clerks, engineers, janitors, teachers and reghters in the retirement systems, they are protected by law or, as in New York, by the state constitution, to be backed up by tax dollars if necessary. Their benefits remain safe for life in guaranteed dened benet pension plans that are disappearing in the private sector, where most employees are left to fend for themselves with 401(k) plans that they mostly or entirely fund themselves. Californias main public-employee pension fund, the nations largest, has lost at least $18 billion off its stock portfolio since July 1, about 7.5 percent of its $237.5 billion total asset value on June 30. Floridas pension fund has lost about $9 billion since June 30, a decline of 7 percent for a fund valued at $119.4 billion on Thursday, while the Virginia Retirement System shrank from $54.5 billion on June 30 to about $51 billion by weeks end, a decline of 6.4 percent, said its director, Robert P. Schultze. New Yorks state comptroller will not say how much the state pension fund has lost during the latest Wall Street roller coaster, but the fund was 5 percent below its pre-recession value before the recent losses and remained nearly $8 billion below its pre-recession value. And Kentucky, which has more than $20 billion in unfunded pension liabilities, has seen the value of its public pension fund decline $1.7 billion or 15 percent since July 1, falling to a total value of $9.7 billion. Nationwide, states have a combined $689.5 billion in unfunded pension liabilities and $418 billion in government retiree health care obligations, according to data collected earlier this year by the Associated Press. Those benets are protected by state law or, as in New York, by the constitution. Pension fund managers say there is no risk current government retirees will miss a monthly check and that they are remaining calm and taking the long view in their investments. Some say the market plunge is even providing a great opportunity to buy stocks at resale prices.
Study: Hybrid pension plans would save billions

By Judy Lin
College board puts $564M bond on ballot

College ofcials are banking on voters passing a $564 million bond to continue upgrading facilities and technology at three San Mateo County campuses a measure that will be on the November ballot. On Wednesday, the San Mateo County Community College District Board of Trustees unanimously voted to put such a measure before voters this November. Since 2001, the college district has had a clear vision for updating facilities. Late last year, the board began discussing another bond measure to nish projects like science buildings and purchasing new technology.
SACRAMENTO A study released Friday by a pensionreform group suggests California state and local governments could save billions of dollars a year by moving to a hybrid retirement plan similar to one used by the federal government. The study by California Foundation for Fiscal Responsibility found the savings could be even greater if public employees who take early retirement contributed up to half the cost of their retiree health care premiums. The authors looked at potential savings if state and local governments reduced guaranteed pension benets by half and replaced them with a system similar to the 401(k)s prevalent in the private sector. Our analysis shows that substantial savings can be achieved if the state and local governments provide retirement benets comparable to those offered by the federal government and share cost and
risk with their employees just as the federal government and private companies do, Mike Genest, an author of the study and former state nance director under former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, said in a statement. A group supported by public employee unions criticized the report and said it was bankrolled by Texas billionaire John Arnold, a former Enron Corp. trader who made his fortune buying and selling natural gas. Whether its been T. Boone Pickens or Valero, California voters have never taken kindly to out-ofstate special interests or billionaires trying to inuence our states public policy, said Steve Maviglio, a spokesman for Californians for Retirement Security. California voters previously rejected the Texas oil companys effort to suspend the states landmark greenhouse gas emissions law and rebuffed Pickens plan to promote the use of natural gas in vehicles, an initiative that would have benefited the Texas billionaires business interests.

Charges filed in iPhone 4 case

San Mateo County prosecutors charged two men with misdemeanors in the taking of an iPhone 4 prototype left at a Redwood City bar last year but will not prosecute the tech blog who paid $5,000 for the top-secret gadget. The Gizmodo editor who purchased the phone and other employees knew the iPhone 4 was ill-gotten when they made the purchase but prosecutors worried First Amendment arguments could lead to a protracted legal battle, said Assistant District Attorney Morley Pitt.
DES MOINES, Iowa Months behind other GOP candidates, Rick Perry has something most of them dont: Buzz. The Texas governor will enter the race Saturday with splashy appearances in South Carolina and New Hampshire. At the same time, he is putting together what looks a lot like a traditional presidential campaign. The path he hopes will lead to the Republican nomination starts here, in the leadoff caucus state of Iowa, with a message of jobs and values as he tries to set himself apart from
GOP front-runner Mitt Romney. The Texans team is working to expand what it says is already a robust fundraising network and to hire Rick Perry veteran campaign operatives in early primary states. The campaign, as many before it, aims to march through early states, court a broad coalition of conservatives and stress an economic message backed by the candidates home-state job growth.
AMES, Iowa Tim Pawlenty and Michele Bachmann, their presidential hopes on the line, made lastminute appeals Friday along with a slew of other Republican contenders ahead of a big weekend test in Iowa that could winnow the large eld of GOP candidates. But the pack was expanding, too. Saturdays Iowa Straw Poll results will be the rst important measure of the GOP pack just as Texas Gov. Rick Perry officially makes it a bit larger and former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin works energetically to keep her door open. I dont want to step on anybodys feet, she said Friday

even as she did just that with a visit to the Iowa State Fair that was timed to keep her in the conversation as she weighs whether to enter the race. Elsewhere, Perry was putting the nal preparations on his announcement set for the weekend. He was giving a preview Friday night with a speech in Alabama.

U.S.visa policy changes

The San Diego Union-Tribune
Devil take the hindmost

preneurs to receive H-1B visas given to foreign workers with specialized skills if they can demonstrate a viable plan for a start-up business that makes products or provides services that are in the U.S. national interest. Previously, these individuals had to have a standing job offer. Also, a foreign investor can receive a green card if he or she invests a minimum of $500,000 in a U.S. venture that creates at least 10 jobs. This is the sort of constructive change that high-tech executives, from Bill Gates on down, have sought for years. ... Bold notes that much more should be done by Congress to make it easier to retain talented foreign nationals who want to work in the U.S. permanently. here is an object lesson for the United States in the youth riots that have been rocking the United Kingdom in the past week. It relates to what I have written about the Darwinist economic philosophy in our country that concentrates on the welfare for business and the wealthy and leaves the economic and socially disenfranchised to fend for themselves. What happens when there are no jobs, unemployment benets run out, social and medical services for the poor and family planning for poor women are cut off and the children cannot be fed? When we have in this country is an industrialized and service economy with high levels of unemployment among the young and African-Americans, many jobs being shipped overseas, leaving very little room for those who are untrained and/or too poor to create an entrepreneurial spot for themselves in the economy and climb the ladder of upward mobility through education, the hindmost may become the Devil. What is being revealed about the conditions that brought on these riots is in a year of a program of austerity in the U.K., the government has been cutting social and affordable medical services, closing youth clubs, sports programs and job training centers and cutting off guaranteed tuition loans for college students and aid to universities that has put tuition out of reach of the economically most vulnerable. So such smug efforts by the clueless in the conservative movement in our country to cut allegedly unjust welfare assistance to the poor and unemployed Americans is potentially suicidal in the same way as the ignoring the needs and hopes of African-Americans in the past with last hired and rst red policies and political disenfranchisement that brought on the civil rights movement and the riots that shook our country. And, our youth unemployment in the United States is even greater than in the U.K. While most agree spending must be curbed, as I have written a number of times, we must not take the easiest route and take it out rst on the marginally surviving citizens. That is a prescription for damage to our country that is innitely greater than any terrorist attacks against which we spend billions of dollars to abort, while we dump billions more into the maws of corrupt governments abroad. That is our rst line of national security. Continuing to cut vital social services to leave our expansive military budget sacrosanct, while we continue to fund endless military engagements and nation building abroad is another example of the gutlessness and lack of vision of our paid for politicians in Washington. The physical damage to the U.K. is far greater than suffered from any terrorism from abroad and demonstrates how insecure a nation can be no matter how one ghts for security from abroad. While it is fashionable in conservative circles to look upon those who require government help to survive as parasites, we are now, actually, in a historical pivotal period in our national destiny. To continue to cater to the wealthy and business entities by subsidies and tax breaks while we tear apart the social contract with the bulk of our citizens is like pouring gasoline over the social fabric and a prescription for the reactions of the disenfranchised as we are witnessing in the U.K., today. Talk about shortsightedness, I recall when President Clinton proposed an addition of 100,000 police to curb social crises that met with general approval. But, when he proposed the creation of a midnight basketball program for the young, the conservatives doubled over with laughter and wallowed in ridicule. Of course that was intended to keep the unemployed youth busy in the wee hours of the night rather than cruising for trouble and drug dealing. But that escaped the understanding of the afuent whose children were well provided for. As one writer commented this week: Had there been a terrorist attack on the U.S. this past week as opposed to social unrest, there would undoubtedly have been a huge chorus of voices loudly extolling the necessity of maintaining and even increasing defense spending, but there would have been no commensurate call for protecting social spending in order to avoid the danger of Britain-style social unrest. A word to the wise? *** Its interesting to note that the difference between success and failure in this weeks recall elections in Wisconsin was a few thousand votes in one state senatorial district. Had this been reversed and the recall gained three seats from the Republicans, it would have successfully turned the control of the state Senate over to the Democrats. This is an issue that will not go away in other states as the middle class is feeling more put upon by conservative reversals of public policy while protecting the afuent.

Last week, the administration unveiled a plan to change visa policies to make it much easier to attract foreign entrepreneurial talent of exceptional ability. In a telephone interview with editorial writers and other journalists from around the world, Alejandro Mayorkas, chief of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, said the Obama administration saw making temporary work visas and green cards more available to proven job-creators as a smart way to help the U.S. economy.

Letters to the editor

Spend, spend, spend. Really?
Editor, I know that Mr. Kreitman likes to be controversial, but he is old enough and wise enough not to applaud George Bushs philosophy of spend, spend, spend. It is that attitude by both the government and the public that has gotten us into this nancial mess. The government continues to solve its nancial ineptitude by printing more money. The public went on a spending rampage for more than a decade such that the saving rate was minus 2 percent people were spending 2 percent more than they were earning. Today, the saving rate is at 6 percent and the government thinks that we are all hoarding money. Had the saving rate always been at this level, the economy would have grown at a more realistic rate, people would have some savings to live on in their later years and there would be less of a meltdown at this time. The rampant spending by the public and government created an articial economy and businesses unfortunately expanded to meet this articial demand which no longer exists. The drop in demand (to more realistic levels) combined with a change in our governments policies towards tariffs, which obligated American companies to build their products in countries with lower labor costs, created this perfect storm of high unemployment. Mr. Kreitman is correct that if the government and public spends, spends, spends (money that it would have to borrow or print), there will be a drop in unemployment, but we are only recreating the cycle that got us here. When an individual, family or government spends more than it earns, at some point, it has to tighten its belt and pay back the debt. So far, this has been a road not taken.
Appreciation and wonder

Editor, I really enjoyed reading Robert Heagys letter to the editor, Abuse of authority, in the Aug. 10 edition of the Daily Journal. It was very refreshing to see that there are some logical thinkers left. Im afraid that all the good advice will fall on deaf ears. All the malcontents and hate America rst indoctrinates will continue to sing a very old tiresome Its Bushs faultsong. Its high time for them to see a college that is not infested with progressives, dened liberals, socialists or communists and take a few courses in logical thinking.

Questions for Keith Kreitman

Editor, So how does Keith Kreitman feel now that we are plunging toward another recession, with the national debt as a direct a result of shameless politicians eecing the tax payer at numbers that boggle the mind, an economy in free fall and for the rst time in history dragging our butts around with a tainted credit record (What its all about column in the Aug. 6 edition of the Daily Journal)? Does he still think taxing the top 1 percent is going to just make it all go away? Does he still think redistribution of wealth is the salvation? Time for him and other demo(litioners) from the Democratic Party to get their head out of the sand (where the sun dont shine) and get with the program. The Tea Party program that is. Keith likes pulling cars out of the ditch Obama built and keeps harping on how the wealthy are not giving their money away. Why should they? Unions have been doing the same thing for donkeys for years but that has escaped Keiths myopic eye. History is in the past. Thats why it is called history, it is long gone and forgotten. Today is the day for action. Stop printing money and stop spending money you dont have.
John Parry San Mateo
Move the money

Editor, Heres the nub of the federal budgetary problem: too much spending and not enough revenue. Its plain and simple. Where should the cuts come from? They should come from the Pentagon and the two unnecessary, ineffective and immoral wars. Where should the revenue come from? It should come from the wealthy, and corporations need to pay their fair share! Creating jobs would create tax revenue its a no brainer!

Dow finishes up

earnings from a technology bellwether. Better unemployment news. The Dow dropped 634 points Monday, its sixth-worst point drop, as investors responded to Standard & Poors withdrawal of the countrys AAA credit rating. It was the first downgrade of U.S. government debt in history. The Dow rose 429 points Tuesday, only to plunge 519 points Wednesday. It surged 423 points on Thursday following a better-thanexpected drop in applications for unemployment benefits. A rebound in retail sales in July pushed the stock market higher Friday as traders looked past a Reuters/University of Michigan survey that found that consumers were pessimistic about their own nances and the economy. The measure of consumer sentiment fell to a 30-year low. It was the rst time since early July that the Dow and S&P index rose for two consecutive days. Normally, such a bad consumer survey would have pushed shares sharply lower for the day, said Quincy Krosby, an investment strategist with Prudential Financial.

NEW YORK The wildest week on Wall Street since the nancial crisis in 2008 ended with a second day of gains. The Dow Jones industrial average nished Friday with a gain of 125 points. Most other times it would have been a fairly big day. By this weeks standards, it was a sleeper. Friday capped a week when the blue-chip index had four 400point swings in a row for the rst time in its 115-year history. Trading was frantic across nancial markets all week. The yield on the 10year Treasury note hit a record low. Gold briey topped $1,800 per ounce. It was a sharp and violent week in the stock market, but its my sense that the worst is over, said Michael Kauer, a portfolio manager at Federated Investors. Investors reacted to every scrap of news and each whispered rumor. A credit downgrade for the United States. Concerns about European bank solvency. Fears of a possible new recession in the U.S. Word that the Federal Reserve would keep interest rates low for two more years because of slowing growth. A positive retail sales report. Strong
After wild stocks week, what now?

By Bernard Condon
NEW YORK Is it time to sell everything or buy with abandon? Investors cant make up their minds. This week was one of the most volatile in the history of Wall Street. The Dow Jones industrial average swung more than 400 points four days in a row down, then up, then down, then up. Its frightening, but experts say the fear results partly because memories of the nancial meltdown of 2008, when stocks lost half their value, are fresh. Their advice: Hold tight. Its not time to sell, but its probably not time to pour money into stocks, either. The stock market has done so well historically that, even if it is overpriced, youre likely to do OK, says Robert Shiller, a Yale University economist
famous for having warned against bubbles in technology stocks and housing. Though he believes the stock market is still overvalued by historical averages, he says it is closer to fairly valued than before. He suggests investors move their money modestly into stocks. A pair of widely respected gauges of market value suggest stocks are no great bargain. But since the Great Depression, shallow bear markets drops of 20 percent or so in stock prices are much more common than the huge plunges of 2008. Of the 12 bear markets since the Great Depression, only three have qualied as mega-meltdowns, with drops of 40 percent or more, says Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist at Standard & Poors. The market isnt quite in bear territory yet. The Dow closed up about 1 percent
Friday and nished the volatile week down just 1.5 percent. Since the markets highs of April 29, the Dow is down 12 percent. The S&P 500 is down 13.5 percent. Though history is only a rough guide, Stovall suspects that any coming bear market wont be severe and will end quickly. Bear markets last a year and ve months on average. Stovall is cautiously bullish. He says investors tend to dwell on the recent past when investing in stocks, so theyre selling now because they fear a repeat of the 2008 collapse. In the year and a half ending March 9, 2009, stocks dropped 57 percent. If the nancial crisis had happened in 1988, not 2008, it wouldnt be on most peoples minds. The market is down because people remember getting sucked up in the previous bear market, Stovall says.
Shoppers lift economy but will they keep spending?

By Christopher S. Rugaber, Anne D,innocenzio and Martin Crutsinger
WASHINGTON The economy might not be on the brink of another recession after all. Consumers, who drive most economic growth, spent more on cars, furniture, electronics and other goods in July and more in May and June than previously thought. That burst of activity is encouraging because it shows many Americans were willing to spend despite high unemployment, scant pay raises, steep gas prices and diminished wealth. If it keeps up, the economy might
rebound after growing at an annual rate of just 0.8 percent in the rst half of 2011. Thats a big if. Whether Americans remain willing to spend freely despite the stock markets wild swings will determine whether the second half of the year is any better than the first. Their 401(k) retirement accounts have shrunk. A sustained stock-market decline tends to slow consumer spending because it reduces wealth, especially for upper-income Americans. The richest 10 percent of Americans own 80 percent of stocks. And the richest 20 percent drive about 40 percent of consumer spending, analysts say.
That loss of wealth may help explain a report Friday that consumer sentiment hit a 31-year low in August. The Thomson Reuters/University of Michigans survey, completed early this week, showed that market turmoil and the political strife over raising the federal debt ceiling rattled consumers. The fact that retail sales held up over the last few months ... is a positive economic development, said Joseph LaVorgna, chief U.S. economist at Deutsche Bank. However, the true test will be to see if consumer activity held up in the face of recent nancial market gyrations and slumping economic condence. So the August data will be of much greater signicance.
J.C. Penney posts flat second-quarter profits

Anne D,innocenzio
NEW YORK J.C. Penney Co. reported a at second-quarter prot on Friday as the department store retailer aggressively marked down prices on fashions to get its middle income shoppers to keep spending in an increasingly uncertain economy.
The company also issued third-quarter prot guidance that fell well below Wall Street estimates and said back-to-school shopping is starting later this year. It declined to offer a full-year outlook amid stock market turmoil fueled by fear about the economy and the downgrade of the federal debt. Consumer climate is clearly uncertain and the tumultuous last 10 days or so hasnt given our core customer, the
middle income family, any reason to be more condent, said Myron E. Ullman, III, Penneys CEO, in an address to investors during a conference call Friday. Penney, like many stores catering to middle-to-lower-income shoppers, faces increasing uncertainty heading into the two most important retail seasons of the year back-to-school and the winter holiday season.

Avis caps summer in style

Menlo School ace impresses everyone at prestigious Area Code Games in Long Beach
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Freddy Avis star continues to climb. The incoming senior at Menlo School capped off an extraordinary 2011 baseball season by earning one of New Balances Jose Bautista Beastmode Award for pitchers at the Area Code Baseball Games in Long Beach last week. The award is given to the pitcher who took over the game of every game played. Avis actually shared the award with Brady Bramlett of Bartlett, Tenn.
It was really cool.It was an amazing experience to play in front of so many people,especially scouts.To play against kids from all over the nation was a huge privilege.
Freddy Avis, Menlo School pitcher
The Area Code games are a series of regional baseball teams from around the country who come together for a showcase event before college and professional scouts. The games are arguably the biggest showcase event for high school baseball players. It was really cool. It was an amazing expe-
rience to play in front of so many people, especially scouts, Avis said. To play against kids from all over the nation was a huge privilege. According to a Rise.ESPN.com report, 350 pro scouts and more than 100 college coaches were in attendance. Of the 53 pitchers at the
games, Avis was ranked No. 8. Avis had a monster year in helping lead the Knights to their second straight Central Coast Section title, nishing with a 10-1 record and two saves, with a 2.39 ERA and 106 strikeouts against just 37 walks. He was equally impressive at the plate for the Knights, hitting a robust .459 (second on the team) with 39 hits (third), 37 RBIs (third), 13 doubles (rst), three triples (rst) and three home runs (second). Avis bread and butter, however, is pitching. The 6-foot-2, 180-pound Avis pitched just two

Niners offense struggles

By Brett Martel
Saints 24, Niners 3

Starters played less than a quarter, and defense dominated during that scoreless stint. The game also marked the NFL head coaching debut of former Stanford coach Jim Harbaugh, a former NFL quarterback who will want to see better performances out of starter Alex Smith and his offensive line. The Niners did not get a rst down on their rst four series, three of which were thwarted by hits on Smith. Will Smith had a sack and had another hit that caused an errant pass. Roman Harper had a sack and strip on a safety blitz, but the Niners recovered. The Saints normally prolic rst-team offense failed to produce a rst down on its rst three series. The second possession ended when
NEW ORLEANS Mark Ingram had a spinning, tackle-breaking touchdown run in his NFL debut, and the New Orleans Saints defeated the San Francisco 49ers 24-3 in the preseason opener for both teams on Friday night. Ingrams 14-yard scoring run highlighted a performance in which the 2009 Heisman Trophy winner out of Alabama carried six times for 23 yards. Saints undrafted rookie Joseph Morgan, a little known prospect out of Walsh University, added a spectacular 78-yard punt return for a score. David Akers hit a 59-yard eld goal for San Francisco, a kick set up by rookie quarterback Colin Kaepernicks 28-yard scramble late in the rst half.
Drew Brees was nearly intercepted by safety Donte Whitner. The third stalled when a long pass over the middle went through receiver Robert Meachems hands. Brees nished 1 of 4 for 6 yards before Chase Daniel came on to get New Orleans rst rst down on a 19-yard scramble, which had 15 yards added for a late hit. That set up Garrett Hartleys 47-yard eld goal for the rst points of the game. Smith nished 2 of 7 for only 10 yards. Kaepernick played most of the game for the 49ers, and his scrambling ability was evident as he wound up being the 49ers leading rusher with 47 yards. He was 9 of 19 for 117 yards passing but also was intercepted twice, rst by cornerback Terrail Lambert and later by rookie linebacker Nate Bussey.
MIAMI Chasing a deep drive with the game in the balance, Florida Marlins center elder Dewayne Wise had time to think about how badly his team had been playing lately. Wise retreated to the edge of the warning track, turned, stumbled and reached out as he fell to make a circus catch. The ninth-inning grab helped the Marlins hang on to snap a seven-game losing streak Friday by beating the San Francisco Giants 2-1. I thought, Oh my God, with the way weve been playing this homestand ... Wise said. As I was falling I was saying, Ive got to catch it. If I dont, its a tie game at least, and were probably still playing. The erratic Marlins had been 0-7 on their homestand, but Ricky Nolasco (9-8) barely outpitched All-Star Matt Cain (9-9). Nolasco allowed one run in eight innings, and Leo Nunez earned his 32nd save in 36 chances by pitching the eventful ninth. Nunez gave up a leadoff single to Pablo Sandoval, Matt Cain and with one out Cody Ross hit a drive to deep center. Wise a ninthinning defensive replacement with a reputation for spectacular catches ran a buttonhook pattern before making the lunging grab. He falls down, you like your chances there, Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. But he made a great catch. After the game, Wise stood at his locker smiling as he listened to a description of the play by teammate Logan Morrison. When Ross hit it, it was, Oh crap, Morrison said. Then it was, Oh, hes got a bead on it. Then it was, Oh crap, hes falling down. Then, Ah, he made the catch. It wasnt exactly the perfect graceful catch, but well take it for sure. Florida improved to 4-0 this season against the defending World Series champions. The Giants set a major league record for consecutive solo home runs when Sandoval hit one in the rst inning. Their past 20 homers have been solo shots, breaking the record of 19 set by the Philadelphia Phillies in 1914. The lead was brief, because two of the rst three Florida batters scored against Cain. He then settled down to pitch six innings, allowing no more runs, but lost his third start in a row.

Cal enters season filled with changes

By Antonio Gonzalez
SAN FRANCISCO Playing in this city will take some getting used to. So will everything else for California this year. In what will be a season lled with changes, the most noticeable one for the Golden Bears will be moving across the bay from Berkeley to play at the San Francisco Giants AT&T Park while Memorial Stadium is renovated. Theres a new offensive coordinator. New quarterback. Even coach Jeff Tedford is switching things up by taking a more active role calling plays. We also have a new theme going around that we do everything together, everything is team oriented, receiver Marvin Jones said. So when we work out, we have shirts that say Team Matters across the chest, and nobody
can take the shirt off no matter if youre hot. Just basically changing the culture of how the team is. After going 5-7 and missing a bowl game for the rst time since his initial season in 2002, Tedford isnt relying on the same old schemes. He revamped the workout schedule, moved to a more spread-friendly system for new quarterback Zach Maynard and hired offensive coordinator Jim Michalczik the offensive line coach for the Oakland Raiders last season and a previous Cal assistant as part of his program overhaul. We have created a standard and expectation at Cal over the last nine years. Last season, we fell short of that, and were not hiding from that, Tedford said. We understand that there is a very ne line between winning and losing, and we were six points away from being 8-4 last year. We understand that we need to improve and get back to the standard

We have created a standard and expectation at Cal. We understand we need to improve and get back to the standard.
and fullling the expectation that our fans and alumni have for our football program. For all the changes off the eld, the one that could ignite the biggest turnaround is at quarterback. Maynard, a dual-threat quarterback who led Buffalo to its rst bowl appearance in 2009, sat out all of last year after transferring and won the starting job in a spring competition that included six players. His speed gives the
Bears a dynamic they havent had in years, and one that is much needed in the high-scoring Pac-12 Conference. Catching up with Cal could be just as tricky this season. The Bears will play their home games in the World Series champion Giants cozy waterfront ballpark, a one-year arrangement while Memorial Stadium receives an extensive, $321 million renovation. Theyll also open the season Sept. 3 against Fresno State at Candlestick Park. While most of the seniors would prefer to nish in Berkeley, the venue has created an added buzz. Whether that translates into wins remains to be seen. As a Giants fan, I love the idea of playing there, offensive lineman Mitchell Schwartz said. For me, it gives a little extra excitement to it. If nothing else, it should be a fun year because of that.
Luck has plenty of competition for Heisman

By Ralph D. Russo
some players who could give Luck a run for the Heisman.
The Heisman Trophy race might be over before the season even starts. Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck is such a heavy favorite to win the Heisman, it seems all he needs to do this season is stay healthy and play about as well as everyone expects and the bronze statute will be his. It might not be so easy. As weve learned in the past few years, players are more likely than even to go from relative unknowns Andrew Luck to Heisman contenders. Exhibit A being last years winner, Cam Newton. So with the understanding that the 2011 Heisman Trophy winner could be a player with little name recognition outside of the region in which he plays, lets take a look at
Denard Robinson, QB, Michigan

For the first month of last season, Shoelace was college footballs biggest star and one of the most thrilling players the Big Ten has ever seen. He couldnt keep up the record-setting pace and as the losses mounted for Michigan, Robinson became an afterthought in the Heisman voting. He became the only player in NCAA history with 1,500 yards rushing and 1,500 passing, and nished sixth. Under new coach Brady Hoke, the Wolverines are switching from a spread to a pro-style attack. If Robinson came make a smooth transition and lead a revival at Michigan, Luck will have some serious competition.
surprising as Lucks was Blackmons. In his rst season as a starter, Blackmon was spectacular with 1,782 yards and 20 touchdowns. If the Cowboys can make a run at the national championship and knock off the mighty Sooners along the way, Blackmon could become the rst receiver to win the Heisman since Michigans Desmond Howard in 1991.
playing in the Ducks mile-a-minute offense. James problem is Oregon has lots of ways to beat opponents and that could be held against him.
Kellen Moore, QB, Boise State

Moore doesnt have the cachet of being a top-notch NFL prospect, but he is on his way to nishing his career as one of the most accomplished quarterbacks in college football history. The Broncos arent quite as loaded this season as last, so if Moore can lead them to another undefeated season the Heisman could be his.
Dan Persa, QB, Northwestern

A good overcoming-adversity story can help a Heisman contender and Persas got one. He tore his Achilles tendon late last season after throwing a game-winning touchdown pass against Iowa. After a long rehab, Persas back and trying to pick up where he left off last year, when he set a Big Ten record for completion percentage (73.5).
Trent Richardson, RB, Alabama

Mark Ingram is gone and the Crimson Tide will have a new starting quarterback. That means there will be plenty of carries for Richardson, who might be the most talented runner in the country.
Justin Blackmon,WR, Oklahoma State

The only player whose decision to stay in school for another year was close to being as
LaMichael James, RB, Oregon

James led the nation in rushing (144.3 per game) and touchdowns (24) last season and those numbers should be within reach again
Notre Dame ambition: Make a BCS bowl

By Rick Gano
SOUTH BEND, Ind. Brian Kelly sees progress every day. His players know where to line up and how he likes to practice after more than a year in his system. Thats a start for the Notre Dame coach headed into his second season of the high-prole job. His goal is to get the Irish into a BCS bowl game this season and win it, of course and show that the program has returned to the national spotlight. But starting with an opener against South Florida on Sept. 3, the Irish have to prove that they are ready and good enough to make the climb back. I know this football team; they know us. I think thats the strength, Kelly said. Weve got a tough schedule we have to navigate
through. Were playing three Big Ten teams, three teams from the ACC, two teams from the Pac-12, Mountain West. ... We dont get any warm-up games. My point is, were very condent, we believe in our strengths, but we got a tough schedule, he said. Thats going to be the challenge. One of his biggest decisions could come in less than two weeks when he names his starting quarterback. Dayne Crist, whose last two seasons have ended with knee surgeries, is hoping to win his job back against a eld that includes three other players. Tommy Rees stepped in when Crist was injured Oct. 30 against Tulsa one of the Irishs toughest losses last season and led Notre Dame to four straight wins to close the season, including a victory over nationally
ranked Utah, a win at Southern California and a triumph over Miami in the Sun Bowl. The Irish nished 8-5. Sophomore Andrew Hendrix and freshman Everett Golson are also in the QB derby, but its no secret that Crist and Rees are the frontrunners for the job. The ups and downs of Kellys rst season stretched off the eld, too. A student videographer died in October after the tower in which he was lming football practice fell over in high winds. Kelly acknowledged it was his decision to practice outside that day and called the aftermath of Declan Sullivans death one of the most difcult periods of his life. The school also agreed to changes in how it handles allegations of sexual assault and misconduct, months after a student from neigh-
boring St. Marys College reportedly accused a Notre Dame football player of touching her. She later committed suicide. And in March, Kelly suspended leading receiver Michael Floyd after his third alcoholrelated brush with the law in the past two years. Floyd, who has caught more TD passes than any player in school history, was reinstated this month after Kelly said he was convinced the junior had taken the necessary steps to be allowed back on the team. Floyd missed all of spring drills but was allowed to participate in voluntary offseason workouts with his teammates. Floyd has 28 TD catches and 171 receptions overall for 2,539 yards and will likely end up as Notre Dames career leader in all three categories.

RaidersJackson seeks improvement

By Josh Dubow
NFL roundup
Buccaneers 25, Chiefs 0
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Josh Freeman and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers looked like they were ready for the regular season to start Friday night. Freeman was smooth and efcient while leading Tampa Bay to points on three of the four series he played, and the third-year quarterback helped the Buccaneers take advantage of every bobble and blunder that the Chiefs made in a 25-0 preseason victory. Freeman was 9 of 13 for 73 yards.
OAKLAND From botching the coin toss to allowing a go-ahead touchdown in the nal minute to the 10 penalties and numerous blown chances in between, new Oakland Raiders coach Hue Jackson sees plenty to work on after his exhibition debut. The Raiders lost their preseason opener 24-18 to the Arizona Cardinals on Thursday night, with many of the same issues that plagued Oakland a year ago still becoming problems. Those things in a rst preseason game are things that a lot of people are trying to overcome, and we will, Jackson said Friday. It was good to see some guys really competing and getting after it. We have something to build on there. Jackson was pleased with the play of the rst-team defense, the passing game and many of his offensive linemen, including rookies Stefen Wisniewski and Joe Barksdale. The key in the upcoming weeks is to build on those and x the lingering issues before the season begins Sept. 12 in Denver. While all teams are hindered this summer by the lockout which canceled minicamps and OTAs, all of Oaklands problems couldnt be attributed to the lack of offseason work. The issues began even before the opening kickoff. The Raiders won the coin toss and one of the captains appar-

ently told referee Ron Winter the team wanted to kick off before another said defer. Winter went with the rst declaration, allowing the Cardinals the chance to receive in the second half as well, when they got an opening drive eld goal. I think its unfortunate that it happened, Jackson said. Im glad it happened (in preseason). Then some of the same problems that plagued the Raiders a year ago reared up once again. Oakland drove inside the Arizona 30 ve times but ended up with just one touchdown and four eld goals on those trips. Oakland was 22nd in the league a year ago, scoring touchdowns on 40.9 percent of trips inside the 30, but improved as the year progressed. Jackson expects similar improvement with more practice time spent in the scoring area. Weve been there for two weeks and were trying to pack everything in as fast as we can and sometimes you dont get to hit on all the things that you got to hit on right away. You get bits and pieces, Jackson said. As we move forward, well make sure that those things are all tidied up and ready
to go. The Raiders, who were the most penalized team in the NFL a year ago, committed 10 for 84 yards on Thursday in a performance that really riled Jackson because he has stressed reducing those. Starting right tackle Khalif Barnes committed three false starts in two series, costing Oakland a chance at a eld goal on the second drive. Rookie Richard Gordon also committed a false start, giving the Raiders four on the night. They led the NFL with 31 false starts last season Backup cornerback Walter McFadden committed a pair of pass interference penalties on a touchdown drive late in the second quarter. Oakland had a league-worst 13 pass interference calls last season. McFadden was one of many backup defensive backs who struggled in the opener but will be needed to contribute when the season starts. The Cardinals had few problems moving the ball through the air after starting cornerbacks Stanford Routt and Chris Johnson sat down following the rst series. Arizona quarterbacks combined to
go 17-for-27 for 297 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions at a 137.4 passer rating once the starting cornerbacks sat for the night. Rookie Demarcus Van Dyke was one of the players who struggled, getting beaten twice in one series by star receiver Larry Fitzgerald. Van Dyke also got beat by Stephen Williams on a touchdown pass in the second quarter. Its a pretty good way to go out there and judge yourself on a guy of his caliber and see what I can get better at, Van Dyke said. I just have to nish on plays, thats about it. With Chris Johnson moving into the starting lineup following the loss of All Pro Nnamdi Asomugha to free agency, the Raiders are searching for reliable coverage cornerbacks from a group that includes McFadden, fellow second-year pro Jeremy Ware and rookies Van Dyke and Chimdi Chekwa, who is out with a shoulder injury. Its something well continue to look at as we continue to move forward, Jackson said. But those young guys, theyll step up. They got to rise up and play, and I expect that they will. Oakland also lost backup safety Hiram Eugene to a dislocated hip. Receiver Chaz Schilens and undrafted free agent safety Zac Etheridge had knee injuries. Jackson said hed know more about the extent of the injuries in the next few days.
Redskins 16, Steelers 7

LANDOVER, Md. Rex Grossman completed 19 of 26 passes for 207 yards and a touchdown to help the Washington Redskins beat the Pittsburgh Steelers 16-7 on Friday night in the preseason opener for both teams. Grossman hit Santana Moss for an 8-yard score in the second quarter although the drive came against Pittsburghs second-string defense.
Lions 34, Bengals 3

DETROIT Matthew Stafford threw touchdown passes on his two drives and the Detroit Lions went on to beat the Cincinnati Bengals 34-3 Friday night. Lions backup quarterback Shaun Hill ran for a score and Jason Hanson kicked a eld goal to give Detroit a 24-3 lead at halftime. Bengals QB Andy Dalton was hit by Ndamukong Sung after taking his rst NFL snap.

Dufner leads,Tiger done

By Doug Ferguson
JOHNS CREEK, Ga. Hardly anyone knows the two guys leading the PGA Championship. No one even recognized Tiger Woods. Once identied by either his No. 1 ranking or his 14 majors, Woods missed the cut Friday at Atlanta Athletic Club with a performance that was even more shocking because of the numbers he compiled. He hit into 22 bunkers. He put four balls in the water. His ve double bogeys were the most he ever made in one tournament. With one nal bogey for a 3-over 73, Woods nished out of the top 100 for the rst time ever in a major. He was 15 shots behind Jason Dufner, who has never won a PGA Tour event, and Keegan Bradley, playing in his rst major. I got some time off again, said Woods, who doesnt expect to tee it up again until the Australian Open in November. Based on the last two days, he has a lot of work to do. Dufner, who hasnt made a cut since the last week in May, holed a 25-foot eagle putt on the fth hole and threw in ve birdies for a 5under 65 that put him atop the leaderboard for the rst time in a major. Bradley, a tour rookie and the nephew of LPGA great Pat Bradley, did even better with a bogey-free round of 64. They played a game with which Woods is no longer familiar. Even as Steve Stricker followed up his record-tying 63 with a 74, and as
Rory McIlroy made it through another round with a heavily taped right wrist, Woods captivated the crowd on another steamy day in Jason Dufner Atlanta. There were times the fans wanted to cover their eyes. Woods blasted out of a bunker and went into the pond on the other side of the green for a double bogey. On his next hole, he hooked his drive into the trees, chipped out sideways, then hit a snap-hook back into the trees for another double bogey. At least he went out in style one more bunker off the tee at No. 18, one more shot into the pond fronting the green. He was angry Thursday when he opened with a 77. He looked numb when he left. Obviously frustration, disappointment that Im not contending in the tournament, Woods said. Now the only question is when and where he will play next. Woods failed to qualifying for the FedEx Cup playoffs, which he has won two of the last four years, meaning he is ineligible for any PGA Tour event for the next six weeks. The next tournament on his schedule is the Australian Open, starting Nov. 10, although he would not rule out playing somewhere perhaps a Fall Series event before then. Meantime, its back to practice. Now Ill have nothing to do but work on my game, he said. Thats
going to be good. It was only the seventh time he has failed to qualify for the weekend in 227 tournaments worldwide, and the third time in a major. He completed only one major this year, a tie for fourth at the Masters. Woods left behind a championship that has 16 players under par, all of them separated by only four shots, even if the mainstream sporting audience might not be familiar with the some of the names. Bradley, who won the Byron Nelson Championship in May and contended last week at Firestone, and Dufner were at 5-under 135. They will be in the nal group, playing behind D.A. Points (67) and John Senden (68), who were in the group one shot behind. These guys are all great players, Bradley said. Its not like they just kind of stumbled up there. Theyve been out here a long time. Probably tomorrow ... it will be a little more relaxing than if I was playing with Tiger or Phil, but theyre great players, and Im sure theyre good guys. Phil Mickelson, who nished one shot behind on this course 10 years ago, was moving closer to the lead until he dumped his approach on the 18th hole into the water and took double bogey for a 70. He was still only six shots behind. The leaderboard is not devoid of experience. Jim Furyk, the 2003 U.S. Open champion having his worst season since he was a rookie, emerged from his slump with a 65 and was in the group at 4-under 136 that included Scott Verplank, a former U.S. Amateur champion.
Woods not only big name gone from PGA

By Pete Iacobelli
JOHNS CREEK, Ga. Tiger Woods wasnt the only star to miss the cut at the PGA Championship on Friday, just the biggest. Masters winners, U.S. Open stalwarts, British Open champions and Ryder Cup heroes were all heading for the exit after two long, hot days at Atlanta Athletic Club. Seven of the past 11 major winners are gone after failing to reach the 4-over Darren Clarke cut. Gather 100 of the worlds top 102 golfers for a tournament and even some of the sports major stars wont measure up. The wreckage included 2009 British winner Stewart Cink, who was especially down about heading home since its only a short drive to Duluth. Just really quite difcult to say, you know, when you play a major right here in your backyard and you have high hopes to come out here and do this, Cink said after his second-round 8-over 78. Embarrassing and just unpleasant. Hes got plenty of stellar company in the underachievers club. Defending PGA winner Martin Kaymer is out, along with last years hard-luck loser Dustin Johnson denied a spot in the playoff because he grounded his club in a ragged
patch of dirt that was turned out to be a bunker after driving far right of the fairway. Overall, it was a frustrating tournament because nothing went my way, said Kaymer, who nished at 5-over. Angel Cabrera, the Masters champ two years ago, came up short at Bobby Jones home club. Darren Clarke came here off a victory at the British last month, holding off Johnson over Royal St. Georges. But Clarke was gone by tea time after rounds of 78-76 on the par-70 layout. Im just going away, Clarke said. I need a rest. Im tired. There were several claret jugs winners who probably felt the same way. Besides Cink and Clarke, 2010 champ Louis Oosthuizen and 2002 winner Ernie Els arent sticking around for the weekend. Cink and Els, who also has two U.S. Open titles, missed cuts at a major for the third time this season. Other U.S. Open winners to fall included 06 champion Geoff Ogilvy, 09 winner Lucas Glover and his successor, Graeme McDowell. McDowell was also a Ryder Cup star, clinching the winning point for Europe. None of that helped at the PGA, where he shot 12-over 152. The game is just kicking me right now, he said. But, you kick on. Maybe two-time U.S. Open champ Retief Goosen had the right idea, withdrawing before Fridays second round began. Several PGA Tour standouts also didnt measure up.

said. I was so excited (when I got the invitation to try out). It was worth the two-hour drive (to Stockton) to try out for this team. While baseball is a team game, this is one of the few instances when players are playing strictly for themselves. Its a hard concept for Avis to accept. Hes very coachable. Hes the kind of guy you want on your team, Schoof said. Its team-rst for him. Surprisingly enough, Avis believed his team, which represented the Oakland As because of the region, had a team-rst mentality. The Area Codes are naturally a very individual event. You lose the team aspect, but it helps you focus, Avis said. Our team, I think we did a good job playing as a team. We wanted to win games. It was good we had that mentality. While many players at Area Codes look at the games as an opportunity to raise their college stock or pro prospects, Avis already has his future mapped out. He has orally committed to attend Stanford in fall 2012 and expects to sign a letter of intent in November. He will be the seventh Schoof-coached player to earn a scholarship to Stanford, and follows in the recent footsteps of Jack Mosbacher, and Kenny and Danny Diekroeger. Dave Cornell, Jimmy Noriega and Ryan Seawell also made the jump from Menlo School to Stanford. Would Avis consider signing with a pro team if he is drafted high enough in next Junes amateur draft? That is a discussion that will be held down the road, Avis said. radio and TV. Braves general manager John Schuerholz said, the Braves family has suffered a great loss today. Ernie was the heart and soul of the Braves for so long, rst as a player and then as the voice of the team in the broadcast booth, Schuerholz said. Our hearts are heavy today and we will miss him dearly. The Braves will wear a commemorative patch on their uniforms the remainder of the season. No details of the cause of death were immediately available.

innings at the Area Code games, but certainly impressed. Facing six batters, he struck out three and allowed just one hit while featuring a fastball that topped out at 94 mph and another half-dozen pitches over 90 on the radar gun. It was certainly very exciting to be honored (as one of the top pitchers), Avis said. I went out there, I felt good, I felt loose. I tried to have fun and absorb the experience and enjoy it. What makes Avis special is his ability to not only throw hard, but his ability to throw breaking balls for strikes. His curveball has buckled more than one batters knees. He has a really loose arm, with great velocity and an incredible curveball, said Menlo manager Craig Schoof. And heres a guy who throws in the 90s. He could be a curveball pitcher. Making the Area Code games is no small feat. It is an invitation-only event and Avis had a regional tryout in Stockton before he even got to Long Beach. To receive an invite to the tryout, Avis said players had to have previously been seen by at least one professional scout. Given Avis attributes, he easily passed that requirement. I knew about the Area Codes. I knew it was an elite baseball event. I wasnt sure I would be chosen to try out. It was slightly unexpected, Avis

Nolasco gave up six hits, but the only walk he allowed was intentional, and he beneted from good defense. San Francisco hit into two double plays and lost another runner when Aubrey Huff was thrown out trying to steal. The defense will make better plays when you throw more strikes, Nolasco said. I was trying to do that and keep them on their toes. There was no evidence of lingering ill will between the teams, who met for the rst time since their series in May, when Giants catcher Buster Posey broke his leg in a collision with Floridas Scott Cousins. Cousins is on the disabled list himself with an injury unrelated to the collision, and before the game both managers said their teams wanted to move beyond the episode. The Giants, starting a 10-game trip, lost for the 12th time in 17 games and continued to sputter on offense. Theyre next to last in the majors in runs and have totaled 15 in the past eight games. Weve said quite a few times during the stretch that were better than this, Bochy said. But we have to show it. The top of the order went 0 for 7, and Ross went 0 for 4 playing in Miami for the rst time since the Giants acquired him from Florida on a waiver claim last August. Sandoval gave San Francisco a brief lead when he hit his 14th homer with two out in the rst. Florida came back with two runs in the rst on three consecutive one-out hits. Alfredo Amezaga singled, Morrison tripled and Mike Stanton singled. It ended up being my fault that we lost, Cain said. Ive got to make better pitches early. The Giants didnt advance a runner beyond rst base in the nal six innings. Notes: Giants OF Carlos Beltran (strained right hand) missed his fourth consecutive game. Bochy didnt rule out putting Beltran on the disabled list but said the Giants hope hell heal quickly after he received a shot.

Live musical entertainment will be going on all throughout the festival as well with performances from the bands Hitmen, a highenergy band that plays hit songs from the 70s to modern-day music, Livewire, a band that performs covers of artists songs ranging from Rihanna to the Jackson 5, and Lava, a band that plays a variety of Latin music. Its a great event for the city, especially since its right before school starts, Naylor said. We expect it to be a lot of fun. seven stories, down to six along Veterans Boulevard and two at the corner of Veterans Boulevard and Walnut Street where the new emergency department will be located. The new entrance will sit on Marshall Court between Walnut and Maple streets. Once the hospital opens, ofcials will decide whether to keep the existing facility as is for some use, connect it to the new buildings or demolish it outright. For now, though, the focus is on the new project at hand. The groundbreaking comes just as Jensen prepares to retire and days before the new San Mateo facility has its soft opening Monday. Weve had a pretty banner year, she said. Her hopes for the site To the future were commemorated on the frame of a hospital rendering to be hung in the new facilitys lobby. The silver inked autographs scrawled across the blue edge also carried other praise and optimism: Cant wait, At last and Best is yet to come, among them. ODonnells enthusiasm, bubbling over the minute he stepped on the site, comes from 15 years of designing, planning and waiting, he said. The new hospital will be better designed and alleviate cramping in the nurses stations, he said. Pointing to the glass windows surrounding the oors of the current hospital, ODonnell explains that people once entered the interior through visible hallways surrounding the perimeter. No longer considered safe, these areas are now locked and off limits, he said. The idea of larger, more private rooms also makes ODonnell pleased about making patients comfortable in what might be a stressful situation. No worries of neighboring television habits, no twisting to t overnight in chairs, no concern that birthing rooms will be shared by multiple patients. He plans to see the hospital open and serve as its chief another ve years before joining others like Jensen and Gonzales in retirement. Gonzales hung up her proverbial nurses cap in 2009, capping a 43-and-a-half-year career in which she loved every minute. Watching the groundbreaking brings back that same sense of delight she felt perched on the tractor, thinking about what was to come, she said. This time around, she is happy to see the long-awaited dream of a new hospital become a reality. She also wouldnt mind if they let her sit on the bulldozer.

rods, will be by 2014 a seven-story, 280,000square-foot hospital. Nearly all 149 patient rooms will be private, family members can pull out sofa beds for overnight visits and those seeking serenity can visit a healing garden. While the current medical center must squeeze new technology through corridors and into rooms not built to their scale, the new hospital will be right sized to accommodate equipment and needs not anticipated in 1966. Back then, the hospital was state of the art and staff were excited for a new home, Gonzales said. She and the other staff moved themselves into the hospital themselves, pushing hypodermic needles, dressings and medicine in shopping carts borrowed from what was then Broadway Market and spending an entire weekend stocking the supplies. They were told to open that Monday like theyd always been there. Although Kaiser was there, Gonzales said there was little else. She remembers Kmart being built across the street later. There was also a pair of binoculars kept by the charging nurse; the nurses used them to peer from the top oors across the empty expanse toward the Bay and its ocks of birds. Times were different fathers grumbled about vaccinating their children, staff and patients crammed into closer quarters and Redwood City grew up around the hospital. But times change and on Friday those gathered to ceremonially pitch shovels at the Veterans Boulevard construction site said that is exactly why a new hospital is needed. While the old hospital has served us well we have to move into 21st century health care, ODonnell said. The need for a high-tech hospital to t modern high-tech medicine was a theme echoed throughout the morning ceremony. Seismic safety and green features like seasonchanging landscaping resistant to drought were also highlighted by Linda Jensen, Redwood City Kaiser Permanente senior vice president and area manager, as staff peered down from the top of the parking garage and safety vest-clad construction workers waited for the chance to start up again.

Hollywood outdoes itself

By David Germain
A class act such as The Help is rare enough in Hollywood. Coming at the tail end of summer blockbuster season, its almost unheard of. The Help is the sort of lm that studios typically save for the holiday prestige season in November or December, when Academy Awards voters start thinking ahead to the lms they want to anoint. Come awards time, many of them likely will be thinking of The Help, whose remarkable ensemble of women offers enough great performances to practically ll the actress categories at the Oscars.

Friendship powers big-screen version of The Help

By Sandy Cohen
LOS ANGELES The story of how the bestselling novel The Help made it to the big screen this summer actually began back in 1974. Thats when author Kathryn Stockett met writer-director Tate Taylor. They were 5 years old at the time, classmates at the
Mothers Morning Out preschool in Jackson, Miss. Close friends ever since, they supported each other on the rejection-strewn road to creative success, and now theyre celebrating a dual big-screen achievement: Her first book, The Help, has become his rst big studio movie. Opening Wednesday, The Help stars Emma Stone, Viola
Davis, Octavia Spencer and Bryce Dallas Howard. Its a story about the relationships between black maids and their white employers in Mississippi in the 1960s, and three women who form an unlikely alliance in the name of social change. In an age where white women marry as soon as they nish college and black domestic workers keep their homes and raise their
kids but dont share equal rights, Skeeter (Stone) is more interested in nding a journalism job than she is a husband, and she begins a secret writing project about the maids and their lives. Its a lm about friendships, as is the story behind it. The Help became a sensation when it was published in

Uneven 30 Minutes or Less feels way longer

By Christy Lemire
If this has indeed been The Summer of the R-Rated Comedy, with each new movie striving to one-up its predecessors in getting down and dirty, then were going out with a whimper with 30 Minutes or Less. And thats ironic, given that the movie is all about something or someone going out with a bang. From the phoned-in (The Hangover Part II) to the fantastic (Bridesmaids), 30 Minutes or Less falls somewhere in the mushy midsection. Like Horrible Bosses,
its got a shaggy, sloppy vibe and characters who are in way over their heads, but its not nearly as consistently funny. Its actually got more in common with the The Change-Up in that its frustratingly uneven, despite some appealing moments of buddy camaraderie. Jesse Eisenberg leads the idiocy and thats part of the problem. Eisenberg is at his best when hes the smartest guy in the room, when hes struggling to stie his inability to suffer fools, as in his Oscar-nominated performance in The Social Network or even in lms that have allowed him to show some

Art Walk features opening of Redwood City Gallery Annex

By Sally Schilling
The dark empty windows of a longtime vacant storefront in downtown Redwood City are now filled with paintings and photographs from local artists, thanks to Alisan Andrews, who sits on the board of directors of both the Redwood City Art Center and SWA Gallery. The property manager has allowed for Andrews to transform the empty space into the Redwood City Gallery Annex until a renter is found for the space. Its been empty for so long, said Andrews of the empty building on the corner of Broadway and Theater Way. Now people are walking by and saying what a great idea and what quality art. The current exhibit, which can be viewed entirely from the street, features paintings and photographs of 12 award-winning local artists. The artists have received awards from the California Watercolor Association, Society of Western Artists and Pastel Society, said Andrews. The exhibit includes Andrews own artwork, paintings by ex-horse jockey Tom Chapman, floral watercolors by Edna Acri and paintings by Erica Aranyos, who is well recognized by locals. The community really enjoys music and art, said Andrews. Its good to see the kids looking, she said, pointing to a young girl out on the sidewalk looking through the window. I cleaned the windows yesterday and they are
already covered in fingerprints. As part of the Redwood City Art Walk on Saturday, a reception will be held in the annex from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. Eight of the featured artists in will be in attenAlisan Andrews dance and additional pieces of their work will be displayed inside, along with live music and refreshments. Andrews said the location of the annex is a perfect for art because it is across from the town square, where many locals gather on Friday nights to listen to live music. I cant wait for Friday night when it gets dark to see the art all lit up, she said, adding that the Redwood City Credit Union donated money for lighting and signs for the gallery. Despite its tight budget, the Redwood City Cultural Commission came through with a bulk of the funds for operating costs. The current exhibit will run through midSeptember and will be followed by an exhibit featuring work by disabled artists hosted by the San Mateo County Commission on Disabilities . In December, the annex will house Christmas trees decorated by local businesses and an arts and crafts boutique during the Hometown Holidays event. Andrews said the annex will remain a nonprofit operation and that all events will be free of charge.

The lm maybe is a bit longer than it needs to be, but thats quibbling. Theres not a moment of it that isnt worth watching, and fans of the novel will be thrilled that so much of it made it onto the screen. This is popular big-screen entertainment at its best. Provocative without turning preachy, tender without tumbling into sentimentality, The Help is above all enormously enjoyable. Thats thanks to the rich characters Stockett created, to the marvelous empathy among the actresses portraying them, and to the previously untested talent of lmmaker Taylor. He and Stockett grew up in Jackson, met in preschool at age 5 and have been friends ever since (another longtime friend from Jackson, I was bugging her about how I was going to make the movie before she was even through, he said. She was like, Oh God, let me nish the book. Taylor was among the rst to read the unpublished manuscript for The Help after Stockett left her advertising job in New York City to try her hand at ction. He urged her to continue even as the book was rejected again and again more than 60 times in all. I was kind of sharing the pain with Tate because he was going through the same thing on the other side of the United States trying to said in an e-mailed response to the Associated Press. Heid asked to respond by e-mail because she wanted to choose her words carefully. I dont think its funny to laugh at the innocent who are victimized by criminals, who care nothing for human life. Neither the lmmakers nor the stars of 30 Minutes or Less were aware of this crime prior to their involvement in the lm, Steve Elzer, the senior vice president who handles media relations for Sony Pictures Columbia TriStar Motion Picture Group, said in a statement. The writers were vaguely familiar with what had occurred and wrote an original a slacker/stoner/pizza delivery guy whose only ambition in life is to get an order to its destination in a half-hour or less, hence the title. Not that punctuality is a source of pride for him; rather, if he doesnt make it in time, the customer gets the pizza for free and the cost comes out of his paycheck. His best friend, Chet (Aziz Ansari), is vaguely more useful in that hes an elementary school teacher, but hes still sort of a goof-off (which calls to mind yet another of the summers RBrunson Green, is one of the producers). They grew up in Jackson a decade or so after the novels events, but the deep sense of time and place Stockett presented on the page is preserved in the lm. Taylor combines grandly detailed sets, costumes and hairdos with well-chosen music and a keen understanding of Deep South mindsets to create an authentic time capsule of an intransigent way of life eroding amid the civil-rights movement. The characters dont fully realize the impact of the changes swirling around them, allowing viewers with half a centurys cultural hindsight to live the events through these womens eyes in a fresh and even profound way. With frizzy hair, formless, unpolished fashion sense, and an earnestness that feels born break into the lm world, Stockett said. The only difference is, in Kathryns work, she gets the courtesy of a nice letter, Taylor said. We just get ignored and sent away. I didnt get a nice letter, I got a form letter! Stockett shot back. Well, at least you got something, Taylor said. (This is the kind of chemistry and quickcomebacks the two have shared for more than three decades.) Stockett spent ve years working on The Help, revising it every time it was rejected. screenplay that does not mirror the real-life tragedy. Screenwriters Michael Diliberti and Matt Sullivan didnt respond to requests for comment through their agent. But, based on its madcap theatrical trailer, it appears the lm doesnt mirror the Wells case beyond the pizza-bomber plot device or go anywhere near paralleling Wells death. Its still too close for comfort for some people, however. Jerry Clark, 50, the since-retired FBI agent who led the investigation after watching the bomb kill Wells from 30 feet away, said he rated comedies, Bad Teacher). The other pair of pals in 30 Minutes or Less consists of the at-out doofuses played by Danny McBride and Nick Swardson. McBrides Dwayne hates his disdainful Marine father (Fred Ward) and dreams of proving himself by opening a tanning salon thats a front for a brothel. With some inspiration from a stripper named Juicy (Bianca Kajlich) and some help from Swardsons worshipful Travis, whos obsessed with explosive

HELP
From its roots as a collaboration between lifelong friends Kathryn Stockett, who wrote the best-selling novel, and Tate Taylor, the lms writer-director, through the pitch-perfect casting of Emma Stone, Viola Davis, Octavia Spencer and their co-stars, The Help simply seems to be blessed. Its hard to imagine a better movie coming out of the screen adaptation of Stocketts tale of friendship and common cause among black maids and an aspiring white writer in Jackson, Miss., in 1963.
out of decency and large-mindedness, Stone is ideal as Eugenia Skeeter Phelan, the Ole Miss graduate who comes home to Jackson dreaming of a writing career in New York. Advised by a Manhattan publisher to try something daring, Skeeter convinces Aibileen Clark (Davis) to share stories of her life as a black maid cleaning up after white people and raising their children. Soon Aibileens friend, the outspoken Minny (Spencer), is conding her experiences to Skeeter. As racial tension and violence erupts throughout the South, more maids step forward to join the writing circle and tell of the hardships, humiliations and occasional subversive triumphs they have experienced under their white employers. She waited until she had a pretty complete story and felt pretty good about it before she gave it to Taylor, and of course I couldnt breathe for the next four days while he was reading it, she said. Meanwhile, he saw the movie version coming together in his mind as he read. He thought of his own childhood and housekeeper Carol Lee, who helped raise him. He thought about his colorful hometown and all the people whose lives had been touched by a nanny or housekeeper who didnt enjoy the same privileges they did. watched the trailer for 30 Minutes or Less because I was so curious myself. Having been on the scene the day that it happened and watching the device detonate, linking that with a comedy, thats sort of difcult for me to comprehend, said Clark, who is co-writing a book on the case with Erie Times-News reporter Ed Palattella. The movie is unlikely to offend anyone unless theyre intimately familiar with Wells or the criminal case like Heid or Clark, said Paul Dergarabedian, president of the Box Office Division of Hollywood.com and a movie business analyst for the AP. devices, Dwayne cooks up a scheme to kill his dad and thereby inherit the old mans millions in lottery winnings. But rst, Dwayne needs $100,000 to pay the hit man (Michael Pena as an amusingly over-the-top ethnic stereotype).

mayor position among councilmembers. Late Friday, Constantino Anezinos led to run for City Council to challenge Vice Mayor Michael Salazar and Councilwoman Irene OConnell. The city council races for San Carlos and Millbrae will not be set until Aug. 17 because at least one incumbent is not running for re-election. Former San Carlos mayor Omar Ahmad died of a heart attack in May and Councilman Brad Lewis, who was appointed to ll out the remaining term, will not run in November. Councilman Randy Royce is running for re-election and will be joined on the ballot by Chamber of Commerce president Ron Collins and school district trustee Mark Olbert. San Carlos Treasurer Mike Galvin is also seeking re-election but is facing competition by Harold Schuette, making the race contested for the rst time since 1987. In Millbrae, Mayor Dan Quigg and Councilman Paul Seto decided not to run for re-election. Vice Mayor Marge Colapietro is running for re-election and she is joined by former mayor Robert Gottschalk, Planning Commissioner Lorrie Kalos-Gunn and former Millbrae police ofcer Marc Faber in the race. There will not be a race in San Mateo. San Mateo had an open seat with Councilman John Lee termed out. With two spots, Mayor Jack Matthews is seeking re-election and Planning Commissioner Maureen Freschet led to run. became apparent. Funds from a previous bond measure will cover the purchase price of land. This measure would cover building costs. The San Mateo County Community College District Board of Trustees is seeking a $564 million bond measure. Since 2001, the college district has had a clear vision for updating facilities. Late last year, the board began discussing another bond measure to nish projects like science buildings and purchasing new technology. As proposed, the $564 million bond would have a rate of up to $12.92 per $100,000 of a propertys assessed value. Lastly, the Burlingame Elementary School District is asking voters to support a $76 annual tax for four years, which would create about $589,000 yearly. Such a measure requires a twothirds approval rating.

ELECTION
ofcial candidates for three positions on the Foster City Council. Mayor Linda Koelling and Councilman Rick Wykoff are both termed off the council. Incumbent Art Kiesel; Steve Okamoto, who works for the American Cancer Society; PTA leader Jennifer MinkeySelvitella, William Schwarz, business owners Herb Perez and Patrick Sullivan are in the race. All four Redwood City incumbents up for re-election Barbara Pierce, Ian Bain, Rosanne Foust and Alicia Aguirre are running again but face competition from Paul McCarthy. Brett Garrett, who initially planned to run on a singleissue anti-Cargill platform, pulled out of the race. The race for the Burlingame City Council was one of the rst to have a challenger. Banker Ricardo Ortiz is challenging Vice Mayor Jerry Deal and Mayor Terry Nagel. Deal joined the council in 2007 in a close race while Nagel is seeking her third term. In Belmont, incumbents David Braunstein and Christine Wozniak will face challengers Eric Reed, Paul Brownlee and Michael McGuinness for two four-year City Council seats. Also up for re-election is City Clerk Terri Cook who was challenged by Vice Mayor Dave Warden. Warden is in the middle of a four-year term on the coun-
cil. He rst ran for a City Council seat back in 1999, when he was endorsed by Cook, who was on the council at the time. Cook rst ran for city clerk in 2002 when she was on the City Council. City Treasurer John Violet was up for re-election but not challenged. South San Franciscos race became contested Friday when former city employee Johnny Midnight Rankins led to run against Mayor Kevin Mullin and Councilman Rich Garbarino. Mullin, a local businessman, joined the council in 2005. Garbarino was appointed onto the City Council in 2002, after mayor Gene Mullin, Kevins father, was elected to the state Assembly. In San Bruno, Mayor Jim Ruane, who was unchallenged, will serve another two years. San Bruno is the only city in the county that has a separate election for mayor. All other cities rotate the majority to pass.
TAX
business plus $38 and $19 for each fulltime and part-time employee, respectively. Increasing the business license tax would generate an extra $825,000 annually for the city. Lastly, the city is asking voters to change the city charter in part so the maximum public benet is another factor when selling or leasing city property. San Mateo ofcials placed an initiative on the ballot to amend the citys general plan and municipal code to provide for alternative means of ensuring adequate affordable rental housing. In 2009, a legal decision said below market rate housing could not be a requirement imposed on rental projects. Instead, San Mateo is hoping to impose a fee on developers of rental housing to help pay for affordable housing options. All the city measures require a simple
School measures
The San Bruno Park Elementary School District Board of Trustees placed a $40 million bond measure with a rate of up to $30 per $100,000 of a propertys assessed value on the ballot. The measure will help with facilities projects including nishing upgrades at Parkside Intermediate School. Bond measures require a 55 percent passage rate. A $30 million bond measure will go before voters in the Millbrae Elementary School District. Such a measure would allow the district to nish projects not covered with the rst bond like a stateof-the-art cafeteria to accommodate all Taylor Middle School students. The San Mateo-Foster City Elementary School District is asking only Foster City residents to fund a bond to build a fourth elementary school in the city. The discussion of building a fourth school began in 2009 when the ever-growing enrollment of Foster City However, she was skeptical and knew the procedure had the potential to be deadly. Her doctor, Drub, told her to follow her feelings, and her inuence ultimately changed her life. As a musician, you close your eyes to improvise, Parfet said. When you close your eyes, you get a feeling that you cant teach someone. Drub had a feeling against it and I trusted her. Parfet experienced a chilling moment before her rst blood transfusion when she saw bald, pale and skinny cancer patients who reminded her of Auschwitz. The patients sympathetic facial expressions helped her brace herself a little harder through treatment. Parfet never cried once during the course of her cancer. My rst thought when I was diagnosed with cancer was thank god I lived my gets down with the get down, he said. Buddz didnt disappoint. The hiphop/reggae artist was on point for his 60minute set with songs like What A Feeling, and Give Me Love. Across the festival at the Twin Peaks Stage, Lotus drew quite the crowd, and had everyone dancing to their sans-lyrics set. Without a doubt, one of the most popular sets of the afternoon belonged to Foster

Doctors believed it was a reaction and did not claim her illness to be a form of cancer. Nonetheless, she continued to return for blood tests until she was sent to Dr. Carolyn Drub, hematology and oncology specialist at Stanford. After three rounds of chemotherapy, Parfets chance for survival lessened for remission. The more she was tested for chemotherapy, the more she considered undergoing a bone marrow transplant, a procedure to replace damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy bone marrow stem cells. She had a 10 out of 10 bone marrow match from a donor.

I saw children die in Africa because of AIDS, and I saw children die in the streets of [New Delhi] because of starvation. I always felt very lucky with what I was able to accomplish. Two years after her chemotherapy, Parfet attended her sons baseball game at Carlmont High School in Belmont. A foul ball ew over a tree and smashed her car window. Her initial response was thank you lord for this broken window. It was her afrmation that she was still alive two years later to see her son pitch that day. Ive always lived life by a blink of an eye, Parfet said. Thank you for a broken window does not faze me anymore. It takes a lot to annoy me; nothing gets to me now.

SATURDAY, AUG. 13, 2011
Be friendly to everyone in the next year, because alliances you form for other than business purposes will turn out quite fortunately. Theyll not only bring you a lot of happiness, but will also produce benefits that money cant buy.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- For unknown reasons, all
your partnership arrangements could be rather testy. It wont be anything you do or fail to do; its merely people being uncooperative at this point in time. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Chances are you will let a self-imposed urgency cause you tremendous pressure
and/or unnecessary complications. Relax! It wont hurt you to leave some of your workload for tomorrow. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Taking offense too easily could cause a rift between you and those who work at your side. Guard against an inclination to take things so seriously that you blow matters out of proportion. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Be careful to share the spoils with those who help you achieve a huge objective. If you dont, you could be resented and totally rejected in the future. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Unless youre careful, you could put yourself in a position that would enable another to manipulate you at his or her discretion. Be your own person as much as you can. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- If youre tired or
your thinking isnt as sharp as it should be for some reason, put off any complicated business matters until another day. You need to be fresh to enter the fray. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Before making any type of serious decision with your mate, be sure youre in total agreement. If either one of you is unhappy, it could lead to discord thatll fester for a long time. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Depending upon how important it is to you, delegating a critical task to an underling might not be too smart. Regardless of how the other party handles it, youre not likely to be satisfied. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Its time to stop spinning your wheels trying to please someone who you hope would return your ardor. If the individual hasnt
responded after all this time, she or he isnt about to. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Be doubly careful how you respond in public to any kind of negative developments that affect you personally. Not only is your temper fragile, your image is delicate as well. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You tend to be a kidder, which is fine and good, as long as youre prepared to be joshed by others in return. It wont sit well if you want to dish it out but arent able to take it. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Let the motto Waste not, want not be yours. Dont let excess expenditures put you in the position of having to face financial pressure that youre not prepared to handle. COPYRIGHT 2011 United Feature Syndicate, Inc.
