State to audit DV shelter money

Demand for domestic violence services up dramatically; funding down
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The demand for domestic violence services is up dramatically in California while most shelters are receiving less money, prompting Assemblywoman Fiona Ma, D-San Francisco, to request an audit of the programs to ensure victims of abuse
Fiona Ma
have access to critical services. The Joint Legislative A u d i t Committee approved Mas r e q u e s t Thursday to focus on
whether local governments are properly collecting, as well as accounting for and distributing, the funds according to state law. Funding for domestic violence shelters comes from a variety of sources including from defendants on probation for committing abuse. These criminals are required to pay a ne of $400, most of which is
deposited into a local domestic violence special fund to be distributed to shelters. In San Mateo County, Community Overcoming Relationship Abuse is the only agency with the sole purpose of serving victims of domestic violence and abuse. CORA relies heavily on local,
county and state funding to provide its most critical services, including emergency shelter. The nonprot agency has seen its support dwindle in the past few years due to the poor economy and laid off 20 percent of its staff back in 2009. Two years ago, however, the organization received a $500,000

DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
SACRAMENTO Gov. Jerry Brown on Thursday offered a tax plan designed to promote job growth within California by proposing to close one corporate tax loophole on out-of-state companies while offering incentives for businesses to hire workers in the state. Under the plan, the governor is asking lawmakers to change a tax formula passed in 2009 that beneted large, out-of-state corporations. The move would force those companies that sell goods in California but do not employ many residents to pay more in sales tax. Every time an out-of-state company moves a job out of California, then they get a tax break. And every
time they hire in California, they increase the taxes they pay, Brown said during a news conf e r e n c e Thursday. That is why it is truly and Jerry Brown perverse outrageous and needs to be eliminated. Continuing to remain at odds with Democrats, Republican lawmakers cast the move as a business tax increase and said the Legislature should focus on reducing regulations and frivolous lawsuits, as well as lowering public pension burden on taxpayers.

Strange but True

Squirrel blamed for flag thefts from Ohio memorial
TOLEDO, Ohio Police in Ohio have discovered that small ags being swiped from a police memorial were being squirreled away. Two Toledo officers watched on Wednesday as a squirrel quickly snatched a ag off its wooden dowel and ran off with it. Lt. James Brown told The Blade newspaper the bushy-tailed critter was too quick to catch. Later, police noticed a squirrel hanging out on a tree branch outside a third-oor window at their headquarters building. They also spotted a squirrels nest made of leaves and branches and at least two of the little ags. Brown says at least three of the ags have gone missing in recent days. Hes careful to point out he cant prove all were the work of the same squirrel. Norred says the hobby shops owners were apparently out of town, so ofcers decided to enter the store and make sure there wasnt a body or drug lab inside. They did nd something dead but not a person. It was a refrigerator full of rotting, smelly sh. Norred says the shops electricity was turned off, and the sh had begun to turn putrid following days of excessive heat. So you can imagine, he says, it was quite pungent. pandas in the city.
Thirsty boy stuck in chimney trying to get drink

WEST VALLEY CITY, Utah An 8year-old boy desperate for a drink tried to get into a neighbors home by sliding down the chimney, but got stuck for more than four hours, authorities said. West Valley City police Sgt. Robert Hamilton said the thirsty boy climbed a tree to get onto the homes roof, then slid down the chimney feet rst on Friday. The boy made it 30 feet down the chimney before he became wedged between the basement and main oor. Hamilton said the boy, who lives several blocks away, recently had been in the house for a play date with a grandchild visiting the family who lives there. The family, who had gone out to dinner, returned home to hear a boy crying in the chimney, Hamilton told the Salt Lake Tribune and Deseret News. I was haunted by the fact we had this child in our chimney, said the homeowner, Richard Draper. Because of the narrowness of the chimney, as well as its twists and turns, rescuers could not pull out the child with a rope, Hamilton said. They cut an 8-by5-foot hole in a wall to free the boy, who escaped with little more than scrapes and bruises. The boy was surprisingly very calm on scene. His only worry was he was still thirsty when we got there, Hamilton said. The boy was able to move his arms, so rescuers dropped water to him.

Street sign prank warns of rogue panda

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. Authorities in Flagstaff, Ariz., are assuring residents there are no rogue pandas roaming the city after some pranksters got creative with an electronic street sign. The Arizona Department of Transportation-controlled sign was set up to warn drivers not to make left turns at a busy intersection. But motorists heading to work Monday morning got an entirely different message: Rogue panda on rampage. A passer-by reported the hacked sign to police at about 3 a.m. Monday. Transportation Department spokeswoman Mackenzie Nuno says the sign was restored to its original message by 11 a.m. She says the agency has no suspects, but she noted the hackers would have needed specialized equipment to change the sign. Flagstaff police Lt. Ken Koch tells the Arizona Daily Sun that residents can rest assured there are no problems with rogue

School lunch costs rising

By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Police reports
A man reported that someone was calling his house and threatening to hurt him on Avenue Del Ora in Redwood City before 9:41 p.m. Friday, Aug. 19.
Lunches at Redwood City schools will soon get include more fruit and vegetables but that comes with an increase in price. On Wednesday, the Redwood City Elementary School District Board of Trustees passed a plan to gradually increase the price of school lunches to meet the federal reimbursement rate for free and reduced meals a requirement under the Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act. Starting in October, breakfast and lunch prices will increase by 50 cents. Another quarter will be added to the cost starting July 1, 2012. This is the rst increase to lunch prices in nine years, said district spokeswoman Naomi
Hunter. As a result of slowly increasing prices, more children will also get to eat lunch for free. Under the recommendation, staff noted the difculty for school employees to collect 30 cents to 40 cents from parents and students, Chief Business Ofcial Raul Parungao wrote in his report. Doing so generated $43,000 for the district during the last school year a loss that could be covered through increased revenue from increasing prices, Parungao wrote. Currently, Redwood City charges $1.75 for lunch and 75 cents for breakfast. The federal reimbursement rate that needs to be matched is $2.74 for lunch and $1.76 for breakfast. The planned increases begin in October with a 50 cent increase. Next summer, starting July 1, an additional 24 cents will be added to the price
of both breakfast and lunch. Increasing the price will result in additional revenue $110,000 in the rst year and rising to $244,000 in the 2013-14 school year. Those funds will also help provide a greater variety of fruit, vegetables and whole grain pasta in a salad bar at each school site, Hunter said. Having fresh products available at each site will mean an increase in labor of $5,400 per site or $60,000 for the entire district. Overall the plan comes with a one-time equipment cost of $22,000 and an ongoing labor and food cost of $110,000.

Arson suspect pleads not guilty

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
The arson suspect who prosecutors say believes several delusions including his status as a former undercover government agent pleaded not guilty yesterday to accusations he torched his own bedroom before climbing out the window. Werner Heinz Mulberg, 50, delayed an earlier arraignment while his attorney had him evaluated to decide if an insanity plea was appropriate. However, on Thursday Mulberg simply re-affirmed his previous not guilty
plea and set a jury trial for Oct. 3. On June 1, Mulberg allegedly sprayed a can of deicer on a vest, ignited it with a lighter and climbed out his bedroom window in the 200 block of Westbrook Avenue in Daly City. He shares the home with his wife, who is also his stepsister, their two children and their parents. Mulbergs teen son saw smoke pouring from his parents bedroom and grabbed a fire extinguisher. The fire damaged one wall and a ceiling in the bedroom. Mulberg does not appear to have wanted to
kill or harm his family and thought his son would extinguish the blaze, District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe has said. The fire required a 75-minute full response by the North County Fire Department. Prosecutors say Mulberg has several delusional beliefs, such as working 30 years as an undercover government agent, and is known to county health officials. He also reportedly told authorities he trained for years to set the June fire. He remains in custody in lieu of $100,000 bail.
MILLBRAE
Hit and run. A hit-and-run accident occurred at the intersection of Millbrae Avenue and Highway 101 before 4:30 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 21. Burglary. A laptop, iPhone, cash, credit card, and car key were stolen from a home on the 100 block of Palm Avenue before 8:42 a.m. Sunday, Aug. 21. Vandalism. A case of vandalism was reported at the intersection of El Camino Real and Millbrae Avenue before 1:16 p.m. Saturday, July 30.
Teen to trial for attempted murder

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
The teen accused of stabbing a man near downtown San Mateo last summer after mistakenly thinking he wore rival gang colors is heading straight to trial after waiving a preliminary hearing on attempted murder and weapons charges. Jonathan Medina, 16, will enter a Superior Court plea and set a trial date Sept. 22. Medinas alleged accomplice is already facing trial separately in October but Medinas prosecution was put on hold while doctors determined if he was mentally able
to aid in his own defense. He was found competent in June. According to prosecutors, on July 15, 2010, Medina, then 14, and co-defendant Rogelio Adonay Gastelum, 20, mistakenly believed one of four men leaving the Project 90 treatment program were Sureos because they wore blue shirts. One of the defendants allegedly yelled and flashed Norteo signs before they assaulted the men. Medina allegedly stabbed the victim seven times in the torso and he required emergency surgery to survive.
Medina is charged as an adult with attempted murder, malice, assault with a deadly weapon, causing great bodily injury and acting to benefit a street gang. Both defendants remain in custody on nobail status.

Yees second chance bill fails

By Sheila V. Kumar
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Around the state

Senate gets bill regulating health insurance rates
SACRAMENTO A key legislative committee approved a bill Thursday to give state regulators the power to reject proposed health insurance rate increases, but the measure faces a stiff ght on the California Senate oor. The Senate Appropriations Committee approved the bill with a 6-3 party-line vote, with Democrats in support and Republicans opposed. While GOP lawmakers have been solidly against AB52, some Democrats also have voiced concerns about aspects of the bill, which was narrowly approved by the Assembly in May. Even if its passed by the Senate, the bills fate with Gov. Jerry Brown is uncertain. His administration has warned about the potential for millions of dollars in new costs that could be incurred through hearings and appeals. The bill has drawn national attention because Californias insurance market is so large. The state is home to one in eight Americans, and makes up 11 percent of the national market for those with health insurance through an employer and 15 percent with individual coverage. Its author, Democratic Assemblyman Mike Feuer of Los Angeles, said hes been working with Senate Democrats on amendments that could help the bill win passage. There are very few issues more important to California families than whether they can afford to go to the doctor, Feuer said after the vote Thursday.
SACRAMENTO A bill giving juveniles with life sentences a second chance narrowly failed in the state Assembly Thursday after a passionate debate between lawmakers arguing about whether redemption can co-exist with justice. SB9 by Democratic Sen. Leland Yee of San Francisco would give juvenile offenders a chance to reduce their life sentence by allowing them to submit petitions for sentence reconsiderations after serving 15 years. A judge would then have the option of paring their sentence down to 25 yearsto-life if the inmates show evidence of remorse and are making efforts toward rehabilitation. Yee, a child psychologist, says the bill is not a get-out-of-jail-free card, but rather a modest proposal acknowledging that children are more prone to redemption than adults. The neuroscience is clear brain maturation continues well through adolescence and thus impulse control, planning and critical thinking skills are not

yet fully developed. SB9 reects that science and provides the opportunity for compassion and rehabilitation that we should exercise with minors, he said in a statement. Gil Cedillo, the Los Angeles Democrat who presented Yees bill in the Assembly, said young offenders who have truly changed for the better during decades behind bars should have a second chance to ask the court for a reduced sentence. You either believe in redemption or you dont, Cedillo said. Opponents of the measure, including one Democrat who voted against the bill, said it would break promises made to the surviving victims whose loved ones were slain. Assemblyman Donald Wagner, an Irvine Republican, cited the case of a
widow whose husband was murdered. Under Yees bill, Wagner said, The killer may walk the streets again, but her husband never will. Marty Block, a San Diego Democrat, said Yees bill was well-intentioned, but he would not support it because it represented cruel and unusual punishment for totally innocent victims. The bill was put to a vote four times in the Assembly, each time falling short of the 41 votes needed for passage. The nal tally was 36-36, ve short of the majority needed. The bill may be reconsidered. Yee says the United States is the only country to sentence minors to life in prison without the possibility of parole. I am hopeful that we will garner the votes this year to nally pass this important measure, he said.
Assembly sends pet microchip bill to governor

SACRAMENTO A bill requiring that cats and dogs released from California animal shelters be implanted with microchips to identify their owners is on its way to the governor. The state Assembly voted 45-21 Thursday to approve the measure by Sen. Ted Lieu, a Torrance Democrat. It requires that owners of pets retrieved from shelters or who adopt them implant the chips. Supporters of SB720 say it will reduce the $300 million-ayear taxpayer costs for euthanizing stray animals and will greatly increase the chances of reuniting lost pets with their owners. Opponents say the microchips can cause medical problems and that the issue should be decided locally. Democratic Assemblyman Ben Hueso of San Diego said a microchip helped reunite his family with a lost dog found hundreds of miles away in Fresno.
Death penalty bill stalls until next year

By Don Thompson
SACRAMENTO A legislative committee on Thursday shelved a bill that would have asked voters to close Californias death row and replace capital punishment with life prison terms. State Sen. Loni Hancock, D-Berkeley, said she agreed to turn her SB490 into a two-year bill when she realized she didnt have the nine votes she needed to get her bill out of the 17-member Assembly Appropriations Committee to a vote by the full Assembly. This is going to be a process. This is a tough vote for a lot of people, Hancock said in a telephone interview. The issue is not going away. There have been people across the state who are rallying to support it. She said she and other proponents will keep lobbying lawmakers to approve the bill when it comes up again next year.
Hancock based her legislation in part on a recent study that found California has spent $184 million a year on death penalty cases and incarceration, yet puts to death relatively few condemned inmates. The 714 prisoners on the nations most populous death row are more likely to die of old age. Thursdays delay came as Gov. Jerry Brown voiced support for putting deep, troublesome issues like capital punishment to a vote of the people, as Hancocks bill proposes. Brown declined to comment directly on her bill. In general, Ive said as a principle, that when we have deep, troublesome issues that create gridlock in the Legislature, going back to the people could be a way to break the gridlock, Brown said at a news conference he called to discuss a jobs creation proposal.
Brown, a Democrat, vetoed a death penalty bill in 1977 during his rst stint as governor, though lawmakers overrode his veto. He enforced the states death penalty law while he was state attorney general before he was elected to a third term as governor in November. Hancock said she expects support for her bill to grow as the states scal condition continues to worsen. She said lawmakers, and voters, will be faced with a choice between spending money on a dysfunctional capital punishment system over funding basic services like police and schools. It is something thats not tough on crime, its tough on the taxpayers, she said. Many times important bills take two or three years to get out of the Legislature. However, Hancock couldnt find enough votes even in a committee that her fellow Democrats control by a 12-5 majority.
New online sales tax bill could negate referendum

SACRAMENTO Lawmakers are launching a new effort to force more Internet retailers to charge California sales taxes as they try to short-circuit an effort by Amazon.com to overturn the sales tax law. The Senate Appropriations Committee on Thursday made changes to AB155 to mirror most of the Internet tax measure Gov. Jerry Brown signed into law in June to raise $200 million for the state budget. Amazon has spent more than $5 million so far to gather signatures to force a referendum to overturn that law. The bill by Berkeley Democratic Sen. Loni Hancock would exclude companies with less than $1 million a year in sales. She hopes to attract enough Republican support for a twothirds majority vote that couldnt be reversed at the ballot box.
South San Francisco votes down collective

By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Plans to open a medical marijuana collective in South San Francisco were denied nearly two years after the original approval thanks to new city rules. In May, the City Council banned medical marijuana collectives completely. Before the ban, the city had rules regulating collective applications. In 2009, the Island of Health Collective submitted the citys rst proposal to open a medical marijuana collective at 175 Utah Ave., which was stalled after neighbors appealed the decision in October 2009. The appeal conversation was postponed until Wednesday. Since a ban was already in place, the council unanimously upheld the appeal essentially denying the original plan to open a collective.
Given the new laws, a collective would be considered a public nuisance if approved, said Associate Planner Billy Gross. Despite this, the appeal needed to be heard since neither the application nor the appeal had been withdrawn, City Attorney Steve Mattas explained. Medical marijuana has long been a topic of interest in South San Francisco. City ofcials began talking about medical marijuana collectives in 2006, 10 years after California voters passed the Compassionate Use Act permitting the possession and cultivation of marijuana for medical use. At the time, the council unanimously approved regulations lling the gaps left by the state law. In May, the council considered two possible options a competitive process to choose one medical marijuana collective or an outright ban. The
council ultimately voted 3-2, with councilmembers Mark Addiego and Karyl Matsumoto in opposition, to ban collectives from the city. As a result, staff recommended the council approve the appeal effectively denying the medical marijuana collective. The council agreed and voted in that manner Wednesday. In San Mateo County, Colma, Half Moon Bay, San Bruno and Millbrae have banned collectives. Collectives are allowed in San Carlos, San Mateo and the unincorporated parts of San Mateo County. Many cities Brisbane, Daly City and Redwood City have temporary bans in place.

Golden Gate Bridge cables getting fresh coat of paint

SAN FRANCISCO The main cables of the Golden Gate Bridge are being repainted in their entirety for the rst time since the bridge opened nearly 75 years ago. Crews working hundreds of feet above the water have begun applying the spans iconic reddish orange paint to the cables, which stretch 1.7 miles over each side of
the bridges two main towers. The cables support the roadway. It has been touched up through the years, but this is the rst time (since its opening) the whole thing will be done, Rocky Dellarocca, paint supervisor, said. The project requires crews to wash mildew, salt and residue off the cables more than 25,000 pencil-sized wires that are bound with more wires and then
sealed with paint. The cables must also be sanded down so fresh paint will adhere to their surface. The work began in May and is expected to take up to four years to complete. It will consume tens of thousands of gallons of acrylic paint in the spans famous color, deemed international orange. The U.S. Navy wanted the bridge painted black with yellow stripes to improve its visibility to passing ships.

NYPD confirms CIA officer works at department
WASHINGTON New Yorks police commissioner conrmed Thursday that a CIA ofcer is working out of police headquarters there, after an Associated Press investigation revealed an unusual partnership with the CIA that has blurred the line between foreign and domestic spying. But he and the CIA said the spy agencys role at the department is an advisory one. Speaking to reporters in New York, commissioner Raymond Kelly acknowledged that the CIA trains NYPD ofcers on trade craft issues, meaning espionage techniques, and advises police about events happening overseas. Kelly also said he was unaware of any other U.S. police department with a similar relationship with the CIA. They are involved in providing us with information, usually coming from perhaps overseas and providing it to us for, you know, just for our purposes, Kelly said. CIA spokeswoman Jennifer Youngblood said the agency does not spy inside the United States and also described the relationship with the NYPD as collaborative. Our cooperation, in coordination with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, is exactly what the American people deserve and have come to expect following 9/11, she said.
Views on economy,Obama role sour

WASHINGTON Americans views on the economy have dimmed this summer. But so far, the growing pessimism doesnt seem to be taking a toll on President Barack Obamas re-election prospects. More people now believe the country is headed in the wrong direction, a new Associated Press-GfK poll shows, and condence in Obamas handling of the economy has slipped from just a few months ago, notably among fellow Democrats. The survey found that 86 percent of adults see the economy as poor, up from 80 percent in June. About half 49 percent said it worsened just in the past month. Only 27 percent responded that way in the June survey. That cant be good news for a president revving up his re-election campaign. Yet there are several hopeful signs for Obama. Despite the perception of a weakening recovery, there has been no signicant change in the number of people who say he deserves re-election: 47 percent as opposed to 48 percent two months ago. The not-so-good news for Obama: Thats a statistical dead heat with those who favor a change in the White House. And more Americans still blame former President George W. Bush rather than Obama for the economic distress.
Millions of U.S.court records bound for shredder

CHICAGO Wrestling with the challenges of documents in the digital age, U.S. ofcials are destroying millions of paper federal court records to save storage costs and raising the ire of some historians, private detectives and others who heavily rely on the les. The U.S. National Archives and Records Administration says at least 10 million bankruptcy case les and several million district court les from 1970 through 1995 will be shredded, pounded to pulp and recycled. Files designated as historically valuable, however, will be kept in storage. Federal archivists spent years consulting legal scholars, historians and others about which les to purge after realizing that sorting and digitizing just the bankruptcy cases would cost tens of millions of dollars. None of the civil or criminal cases up for destruction went to trial, and docket sheets that list basic information such as names of defendants and plaintiffs will be saved from each case. Such reassurances havent allayed concerns of some of those whose work relies on the paper documents.

Some 31 percent put the bulk of the blame on Obama, while 51 percent point to his Republican predecessor. I think Bush had a hand in it, too. Obamas not totally responsible, said Mary Parish, 68, of Troy, Tenn. An independent who voted for Republican John McCain in 2008, she said she doesnt believe Obama has what it takes to heal the economy. Hes a smooth-talking man. But he does not know what hes doing. Obama also fares better than Congress in the blame department. Some 44 percent put a lot or most of the blame on Republicans while 36 percent point to congressional Democrats. The gloomy economic outlook reected in the poll, which was taken Aug. 1822, follows a round of bleak government economic reports on unemployment, the housing market and economic growth that fell below 1 percent for the rst six months of the year. It was taken amid heightened worries of a new U.S. recession, fallout from a downgrade of the countrys credit rating and a spreading European debt crisis.
Low rates squeeze savers,may hold back economy

Casey Anthony reports to probation officer

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. Florida authorities said Thursday that Casey Anthony was polite and cooperative during a meeting with her probation ofcer and pledged to meet the conditions of her one-year probation for check fraud. The 25-year-old Anthony, who has remained hidden since a jury acquitted her of killing her daughter, met with the ofcer for more than an hour Wednesday evening at an undisclosed location as she begin her probation. But citing death threats against her, state ofcials said they will not reveal her location, including the county where she will serve her probation for the unrelated charge. She told the probation ofcer that she intended to do well on probation, she was polite and cooperative, said Gretl Plessinger, a spokeswoman for the Florida Department of Corrections. Anthony has been in hiding since being set free last month after a jury found her not guilty of murder in the 2008 death of her 2-year-old daughter Caylee. But a legal battle then commenced over whether she still needed to serve her probation.
WASHINGTON Super-low interest rates havent done what they usually do after a recession. They havent ignited economic growth or revived the home market or persuaded consumers to spend freely again. They have, though, caused misery for retirees and others who depend on interest income. Such income plummeted 27 percent from 2008 to last year. Now, some economists worry that low rates might be hurting the economy itself defeating the purpose of the Federal Reserves low-rate policies. When savers earn less, they spend less. And spending by individuals drives about 70 percent of the U.S. economy. Those concerns arise 2 1/2 years after
the Fed pushed short-term rates to near zero, part of an effort to combat the gravest recession since the 1930s. Its kept rates there since. The Fed is turning the faucet, and nothings coming out, says William Ford, a former president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta. I dont see any pluses on the plus side of the ledger ... But theyre ignoring the strong negative effect that theyre having. Theyre killing savers. Retirees are earning nothing on their life savings. The Fed this month announced plans to keep short-term rates near zero through mid-2013 unless the economy improves. And in a speech Friday, Chairman Ben Bernanke will likely lay out options for lowering long-term rates even further below the current nearrecord lows.
One option is a third round of Treasury bond purchases by the Fed. Such purchases would be intended to nudge rates even lower, to encourage spending and borrowing and raise stock prices. But additional rate declines would likely also further drive down rates on savings vehicles. Low rates have already hurt retirees and other savers. Savings accounts, on average, are yielding 0.15 percent, 1year CDs 1.15 percent and even 5-year Treasury notes only 1 percent. Americans total interest income dropped from $1.38 trillion in 2008 to $1.01 trillion in 2010, according to the federal Bureau of Economic Analysis. That time span has coincided with a period in which the Fed kept its main interest-rate lever, the federal funds rate, at a record low of zero to 0.25 percent.

Hurricane tightens aim on East Coast

Around the nation

Five years later, the Jena 6 move on
JENA, La. One wants to be a lawyer. One, a soldier. Another, a sports agent. Some dont care to talk about their future or that part of their past, ve years ago, when they faced up to 40 years in prison in the beating of a white classmate, an episode that sparked the biggest civil rights demonstration the nation had seen in years. The Jena Six are ready to move on. So is the young man who was beaten. So is the town of Jena. This is a nice little town, its really like Mayberry, said Jena mayor Murphy McMillin. We were never portrayed accurately during all that. But now were past it and focused on the future. It was on Aug. 30, 2006, that a black student asked if he could sit under a tree on campus or if it was for white students only. The next morning there were three nooses hanging in the tree. The tension culminated Dec. 4, when Justin Barker was beaten. Six of his black classmates were arrested. Three days later, ve of them were charged with attempted murder.
BUXTON, N.C. A monstrous Hurricane Irene tightened its aim on the Eastern Seaboard on Thursday, threatening 65 million people along a shore-hugging path from North Carolina to New England. One of the nations top experts called it his nightmare scenario. The Category 3 storm with winds of 115 mph the threshold for a major hurricane would be the strongest to strike the East Coast in seven years, and people were already getting out of the way. Tens of thousands ed North Carolina beach towns, farmers pulled up their crops, and the Navy ordered ships to sea so they could endure the punishing wind and waves in open water. All eyes were on Irenes projected path, which showed it bringing misery to every city along the I-95 corridor, including Washington, New York and Boston. The former chief of the National Hurricane Center called it one of his three worst possible situations. One of my greatest nightmares was having a major hurricane go up the whole Northeast Coast, Max Mayeld, the centers retired director, told the Associated Press. He said the damage will probably climb into billions of dollars: This is going to have an impact on the United States economy. The head of the Federal Emergency Management Agency said damages could exceed most previous storms because so many people live along the East Coast and property values are high. Weve got a lot more people that are potentially in the path of this storm, FEMA Director Craig Fugate said in an interview with the Associated Press. This is one of the largest populations that will be impacted by one storm at one time. The storm would have a lot of impact well away from the coastline, he added. A little bit

of damage over big areas with large populations can add up fast. Irene was massive, with tropical-force winds extending almost twice as far as normal, about the same size as Katrina, which devastated New Orleans in 2005. Its not going to be a Katrina, but its serious, said MIT meteorology professor Kerry Emanuel. People have to take it seriously. The governors of North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, New York and New Jersey declared emergencies to free up resources, and authorities all the way to New England urged residents in low-lying areas to gather supplies and learn the way to a safe location. Irene was expected to come ashore Saturday in North Carolina with 115 mph winds and a storm surge of 5 to 10 feet. It could dump a foot of rain, with as much as 15 inches falling in some places along the coast and around Chesapeake Bay. With heavy rain and storm surge predicted for the nations capital, organizers postponed Sundays dedication of the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial on the National Mall. Already in South Florida near West Palm Beach, authorities blame the rough ocean churned up by the outer bands of Irene caused eight people to be injured when a wave knocked them off a jetty.
Romney sticks with strategy despite Perrys surge

DOVER, N.H. Despite a new rivals surge, Mitt Romney is campaigning as though hes still the GOP presidential front-runner, focusing his criticisms on President Barack Obama, taking few risks and keeping most proposals vague enough to leave ample maneuvering room. That may change soon, however, as events shift the contest to a higher gear. September will bring several GOP debates that will include Texas Gov. Rick Perry for the rst time, as well as renewed attention to the question of how to create desperately needed jobs. The former Massachusetts governor may be pushed out of his comfort zone even sooner if Perrys fast rise seems real and lasting.

Gaza militants call another truce with Israel
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip Gaza militants early Friday called their second truce in less than ve days in an attempt to keep more than a week of hostilities with Israel from escalating. A leader of the Islamic Jihad faction, Mahfez Azzam, said Egypt mediated the cease-re, which is to go into effect at 1 p.m. local time Friday (1100 GMT). The factions had called a cease-re late Sunday, but it dissolved almost immediately in a volley of rocket re from Gaza on southern Israel and retaliatory Israeli airstrikes in which some two dozen Palestinians and one Israeli were killed. The violence began with a militant attack that killed eight Israelis on the Egyptian border. The government has called on the Palestinian factions not to give an opportunity to the (Israeli) occupation government to escalate its aggression further, said Taher Nunu, a government spokesman in Hamas-ruled Gaza. Another Hamas ofcial said all key factions agreed to the truce and that the Gaza government and Egypt were trying to get tiny factions on board, too. Hours earlier, an Israeli airstrike killed two Palestinian militants in Gaza following a salvo of rocket attacks on Israel. Palestinian ofcials said the two were members of Islamic Jihad.
Syrian gunmen break artists hands as warning

BEIRUT A renowned political cartoonist whose drawings expressed Syrians frustrated hopes for change was grabbed after he left his studio early Thursday and beaten by masked gunmen who broke his hands and dumped him on a road outside Damascus. One of Syrias most famous artists, Ali Ferzat, 60, earned international recognition and the respect of many Arabs with stinging caricatures that infuriated dictators including Iraqs Saddam Hussein, Libyas Moammar Gadha and, particularly in recent months, Syrias autocratic Assad family. He lay badly bruised in a hospital bed Thursday evening with his hands swathed in bandages, a stark reminder that no Syrian remains immune to a brutal crackdown on a ve-month anti-government uprising. Ferzat remembers the gunmen telling him that this is just a warning, as they beat him, a relative told the Associated Press.

Bomb planted in tricycle kills 11 in Pakistan

PESHAWAR, Pakistan A bomb planted in a childs tricycle exploded outside a shop in northwestern Pakistan on Thursday, killing at least 11 people and damaging several stores and hotels, police said. The attack occurred in the main bazaar in the town of Risalpur in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, said Mohammad Hussain, police chief for surrounding Nowshera district. Shoppers were buying goods for an upcoming Muslim holiday when the bomb went off. At least 23 people were wounded, Hussain said. No group claimed responsibility for the attack, but the Pakistani Taliban has carried out many bombings throughout the northwest.
TRIPOLI, Libya The streets where rebel ghters bombarded snipers loyal to Moammar Gadha were strewn with bullet-ridden corpses from both sides Thursday. Streams of blood ran down the gutters and turned sewers red. By sundown the rebels appeared to have won the battle for the Abu Salim neighborhood, next to Gadhas captured Tripoli compound, but the fallen dictator continued to elude them. Speaking from an unknown location, he exhorted his supporters to ght on. Dont leave Tripoli for the rats. Fight them, and kill them, Gadha said in a new audio message broadcast on AlOuroba TV, a Syria-based satellite station. Outside his Bab al-Aziziya compound, which rebels captured Tuesday, there was another grim scene one that suggested mass, execution-style killings of civilians. About two dozen bodies some with their hands bound by plastic ties and with bullet wounds to the head lay scattered on grassy lots in an area where Gadha sympathizers had camped out for months. The identities of the dead were unclear, but they were in all likelihood activists who had set up an impromptu tent city in solidarity with Gadha in deance of the NATO bombing campaign. Five or six bodies were in a tent erected on a roundabout that had served as a eld clinic. One of the dead still had an IV in his arm, and another body was completely charred, its legs missing. The body of a doctor, in his green hospital gown, was found dumped in the canal.
Hidden tunnels,bunkers lie under Gadhafis compound

TRIPOLI, Libya Beneath the grassy courtyard of Moammar Gadhas private compound, long tunnels connect bunkers, command centers and spiral staircases that lead to a luxurious home lled with Gadha family photos. The electric lights are out and the banks of telephones have gone dead. When rebels took over the compound Tuesday, they discovered what had long been rumored: An elaborate secret underground network. Outsiders had never seen the tunnels beneath the Bab al-Aziziya compound. Many Libyans assume that underIt was unclear who was responsible for the killings. Rebels have seized most of Tripoli since sweeping into the capital on Sunday, and on Thursday they announced that their leadership was moving into the capital.

Some guess he ed the city through one of the tunnels as the rebels swept into Tripoli, though because of damage from NATO bombing, it was not possible to determine if the tunnels actually extend outside of Bab al-Aziziya. After overrunning the compound, long seen as the symbolic heart of Gadhas rule, the rebels set alight his family home, seized huge numbers of weapons and turned the complex into a staging ground for ghting elsewhere in the capital. They also discovered the underground network beneath it, a web of tunnels whose reach is still unclear. nance minister, told reporters in Tripoli. I have a nal message for everyone who is still carrying arms against the revolution, he said, to let go of their arms and go back to their homes, and we promise not to take revenge against them. The rebels know they cannot declare a full victory in the 6-month-old civil war as long as Gadha has not been captured or killed. There was no sign of the leader or his sons, despite rumors that swirled around the battleeld that they may be hiding inside some of the besieged buildings in Abu Salim.

OPINION
my own district, Redwood City, tells the story of the need for adequate school funding and how it can impact student success. I have been a school board member for six years. Every year but one, we have had to make cuts to balance our budget. And despite those budget cuts the most severe since the Great Depression our district has increased test scores each of those years. But this years test scores show a persistent achievement gap, suggesting that budget cuts are taking a toll. In the last three years we have cut over $1,000 almost 20 percent per student. Students who need extra support no longer have summer school, a resource teacher, enrichment opportunities or small class sizes and their teachers no longer have out-of-classroom support in curriculum or teaching. Thats a travesty in a district where two-thirds of the children are eligible for free- or reduced-lunch and about half are learning English a district where adequate funding could effectively address the achievement gap. At Taft School, for example, nancial investments from outside funders and expanded programming through partnerships resulted in a remarkable increase in achievement and student engagement. Three
Adequate school funding

By Shelly Masur
ts that time of year again back to school, yes, but its also the time when all schools receive their annual grade. Test scores have arrived and the annual judging has begun. Because of the high premium placed on a single test, the arrival of test scores has come to be an event of nail biting and anxiety for everyone students, teachers and administrators. In California we pile on uncertain and inadequate funding and still expect major improvements in scores each year. So we have to ask ourselves, how much can we expect when we arent investing adequately in education? Eventually, our schools will reach a breaking point. The good news is, test scores are going up for all groups across the state. But the achievement gap between white and Asian students and black and Latino students remains. And districts all over California are struggling to increase student achievement with less money. In general, better test scores, like many measures of success, tend to reect better funding and more advantages in life. We all agree that money does not solve every problem, and a long hard look at how you spend resources is critical. Particularly during times like these, how we spend each dollar becomes even more crucial as the dollars are so few. However, a look across the state and a look at
Guest Perspective
years ago, thanks to those investments, Taft became one of only nine schools in the state to exit program improvement under No Child Left Behind. As a school board member and parent, I take ensuring a quality education for children very seriously. It is hard to do a good job, however, with already severe budget cuts and the looming prospect that those cuts will get worse. State revenue projections continue to fall short and endanger all the hard work of our teachers and staff as we open the doors for a new school year. Each year, teachers and staff are asked to do more with less and keep improving achievement. But each year, more difcult working conditions and uncertain funding make that even harder. For example, the number of school days is tied to how much money we receive from the state, which is tied to whether or not state tax collections remain on track. So this year, like last year, we dont even know how many days of school we will have. And its a vicious cycle. When we decrease funding for education and educational opportunities, our children grow up less prepared to go to college or have a career. If we dont teach a child to read by third grade, he or she is much more likely to drop out of school and to be incarcerated. In our community and across the state, we need to break that cycle by investing in education, not divesting. Despite all this, we are lucky in Redwood City. We have committed staff and amazing partners who help us combat the lack of funding and provide opportunities for our children to have a well-rounded curriculum and access to services both for our students and their families. These partnerships have resulted in remarkable gains on state tests gains that show when we invest in our kids and take seriously our commitment to education, we can make a difference for all our children. So what should we do? Make sure we do the best we can to support our teachers and staff as they move into another year of potential turmoil. Hold high expectations for our students but dont look to state tests as the ultimate arbiter of whether our children are learning. Support your local education foundation or a local parcel tax. And dont forget to let your legislators know that we need them to continue to ght for our children and for our future.

Hospitals and consumerism
Editor, I take exception to the article, Independent doctors look to unite in the Aug. 8 edition of the Daily Journal. There is no information provided which talks about why hospitals charge more. I can give you several reasons why hospitals charge more. They include overhead and expense often required by the state they reside in and the government. Lastly and most importantly, hospitals are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week to provide many services to the community (many to which the hospitals and its workers receive no payment). Reference labs such as East Side are in the game for one reason: to make money. They have no interest in improving health care delivery or providing services to the indigent at no cost. I would also like to comment that hospitals have much higher standards than private for-prot labs. Many private for-prot labs hire substandard workers that dont meet or barely meet minimum requirements. Rhode Island does require licensure for lab professionals, however Massachusetts does not. I previously worked in a private reference lab many years ago and I am quite astonished by the differences in quality. If this article is meant to educate the consumer, I would highly recommend that there be a section included which discusses the basic rules of consumerism: you get what you pay for. column, Presidential choice? in the Aug. 22 edition of the Daily Journal, I was uncomfortable with the factual inaccuracies presented. The quote separation of church and state is referenced out of context. Thomas Jefferson wrote that line in a letter to a Connecticut Church. It was to assure the leaders that the Federal Government would not interfere with the free practice of religion. It was not to ban religion from government it was to protect religion from government. The full text of the letter is available on the Internet; The Writings of Thomas Jefferson book 16 letter 281. In the Declaration of Independence we nd reference to Natures God and our Creator. Contrary to the statements in this column, our founders were also believers in a Supreme Being. There are too many examples of this to list in this space. This fact is not hard to support. In the Constitution there are two direct references to religion and none to God. The rst is in Article 6: no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualication to any Ofce or public Trust under the United States. The second reference is in the rst amendment: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof. Expression of opinion like expression of faith is the right of all people. Confusing opinions with facts to support a position through either ignorance or intent is inappropriate.

n the nal few weeks of the legislative session, California lawmakers should set aside the usual time-wasting debates on insignicant legislation and pet projects and focus on the single most important challenge facing the state: economic revival. There are a few bills that appear likely to draw bipartisan support that could help California businesses and create jobs. Among them are SB366, authored by Ron Calderon, DMontebello, and SB226, by Joe Simitian, D-Palo Alto. Calderons bill would direct state agencies to a comprehensive review of their regulations to identify outdated provisions and weed them out within 180 days of passage. A second part of the measure would reduce red tape that hampers development projects. It would provide a one-stop permitting process overseen by three state agencies: Business, Transportation and Housing; Natural Resources; and Environmental Protection. Simitians bill would streamline the California Environmental Quality Act compliance process in ways intended to assist business expansion. It seeks to revise the CEQA law so that proposals to alter city and county general plans can be handled concurrently with the scoping process. This would save time and reduce headaches that are now too frequent. At the very least, if the Legislature is not prepared to pass bills that can assist economic recovery, it should do no further harm. Unfortunately, there are a host of bills in the works that would throw roadblocks in the way of businesses and make it harder for them to expand and hire workers. Among the worst is SB653 by Darrell Steinberg, D-Sacramento. It would vastly expand the taxing authority of Californias 58 counties, county school districts and community college districts. They would be allowed to impose a local personal income tax up to 1 percent of state taxable income and levy their own sales taxes beyond the current local limit of 2 percent. SB653 would permit counties and school districts to create countywide excise taxes (levies on goods and services, paid by merchants or manufacturers, with costs passed on to consumers). This would create an entirely new tax on services with no set limits. Local governments would be able to impose their own vehicle license tax up to 1.35 percent of the vehicles value on top of the current car tax. And then theres AB10 by Luis Alejo, D-Watsonville, which would boost the minimum wage from $8 an hour to $8.50 and index it to ination. This is the last thing California needs during a weak economy. California has been one of the hardest-hit states by the economic turndown and has one of the highest unemployment rates in the nation. This is the time to give businesses and the jobs they create a boost, not more difculty.

Gains made one day have disappeared the next, or even in the same day. Were not seeing anything thats convincingly bearish enough to call another recession, but nothing optimistic enough to suggest that a recovery is going to regenerate, Stein said. Friday could be another day of big swings as Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke gives a highly anticipated speech at a conference in Jackson Hole, Wyo. Bernanke speaks at 10 a.m. EDT. Earlier Thursday, the government reported an increase in the number of people applying for unemployment benets last week. The Labor Department said applications rose to 417,000, the highest in ve weeks, but the gure was inated by a strike at Verizon that earlier this week.

Bank of America Corp. jumped 9 percent on news that Warren Buffett will invest $5 billion in the troubled bank. BofA had lost half its value this year as investors worried about its need to raise capital and its growing liabilities related to subprime mortgages. BofA stock was up 26 percent early, to $8.80, and closed at $7.65, up 66 cents. Other banks also rose after the billionaire investor gave his backing to Bank of America. Morgan Stanley gained 2.7 percent and Citigroup Inc. 4.8 percent. BofA and American Express Co. were the only two of the 30 companies in the Dow to rise.
Jobs new job at Apple could be chief visionary

Business brief
After Apples fall,is it time to buy?
NEW YORK Should you buy or sell Apple? After the announcement that Steve Jobs is stepping down as CEO, investors pushed Apples stock down 2.5 percent on Thursday. Wall Street analysts who study the company have reacted with a deafening uniformity: Buy a lot. So who is right? The pros or the investors? The short answer may be the pros, though the stock is probably not the bargain that many of them assume. One popular way to value a companys stock is to look at how high it is trading relative to its earnings per share. Its a rough measure, but it does show that Apple is not much more expensive than the average company.
SAN FRANCISCO The end of Steve Jobs reign as Apple Inc. CEO doesnt mean he is bowing out as the maestro of personal technology. True to its tight-lipped style, Apple isnt spelling out how actively involved Jobs will be as the companys new chairman while he tends to his own fragile health after surviving pancreatic cancer and a liver transplant during the past seven years. But longtime Apple watchers have no doubt that Jobs will weigh in on all key
decisions and help sculpt the companys future product lineup. I know enough about Steve Jobs to know that as long as he has a breath in him, he will be giving direction at Apple, said Tim Bajarin, president of Creative Strategies and the dean of Apple analysts. He is going to remain Apples chief visionary. In his Wednesday resignation letter as CEO, Jobs, 56, wrote that he planned to be watching and contributing to Apples success as chairman, a position that had long been vacant.

Finishing with a flourish

By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
With 18 players returning from last years squad, Hillsdale football coach Mike Parodi is hoping that experience pays off with a nished product. Not that the Knights are expecting everything to go smoothly this season. Parodi just wants his team to nish what it starts. The last two seasons, the Knights have gotten off to tremendous starts only to fade down the stretch. Two years ago, the Knights were 7-2 before losing their nal two games, including their rst playoff game in nearly 20 years. Last year, Hillsdale was 6-2 before losses to Sequoia (in overtime) and Aragon (again) ended the season on a down note. We feel good with the group of guys we have coming back. (Theyre) doing everything weve asked them to do. Now, we just have to take that next step in the program, Parodi said. The word weve been talking about is nish. We have not nished what we started yet. The emphasis is, you have to nish every rep in the weight room. You have to nish every play in practice. No matter what youre doing, you have to nish better. The good news for the Knights is they have a number of returners who vividly remember the late-season stumbles the last couple of years and Parodi is hoping they have learned from their mistakes. As is usually the case, it begins with the quarterback and Hillsdale has one of the better ones in the Lake Division returning. Yannis Tsagarakis threw for nearly 1,300 yards last season, along with 18 touchdown passes. With another year of experience, Parodi is expecting even more from the senior. We went in thinking (last year) we were going to rotate the quarterback, Parodi said. But Yannis never let us do that. He denitely has a better understanding of what we want to do. He understands the system now.
Jefferson is ready to play in the PAL Bay

By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
NATHAN MOLLAT/DAILY JOURNAL
There might not be another team in the Peninsula Athletic League this year that tickles a fans curiosity more than the Jefferson Indians. Three years ago, the team from Daly City was living in the cellar of the PAL Lake Division after an 0-5 season (and an 0-6 campaign before that). A year later, they went 42 and earned a promotion to the Ocean Division. And in 2010, they went unblemished in league play en route to their rst visit to the Central Coast Section playoffs since 2001. Talk about a complete 180. In 2011, the program turnaround is all but complete with the Indians slated to the play in the PALs elite division, the Bay. And the question everyone is asking of Jefferson is: do you guys belong up here, with the big boys? That question popped into my head in the (post-season) coaches meeting, said Indians head coach Ako Poti. And when Jefferson came up, and they were saying, OK, we can put Jeff up in the Bay. Had I not felt comfortable with our defense, our returning defense this year, I probably would have said, No, we should stay in the Ocean. But I feel that our defense will denitely be our strong point. I think our defense can run with pretty much any team in the Bay. Defense? Did Poti say defense? A quick glance at the numbers shows just how much of an impact Poti has had on the Jefferson program. In ve seasons before his arrival, the Indians were outscored an average of 166-361 per season. But in Potis his rst two seasons, that average has changed to 306247. And this year might be Potis best defensive unit yet, with eight returning starters.

A startling discovery
Player unknowingly practices with snake in helmet
Miami is awaiting eligibility decisions

By Tim Reynolds
GRAVETTE, Ark. A high school running back in Arkansas wants to slither through defenses, not have a snake slither inside his helmet. Gravette High School senior Darrick Strzelecki said he felt something odd in his helmet during practice Tuesday, but thought it was only a tangled lock of hair or sweat beading up as the team worked on extra points. I kept hitting, and it just kept bothering me, Strzelecki told the Benton County Daily Record (http://bit.ly/rbzFdu). During a break about 15 minutes
into practice, Strzelecki took off his helmet and initially believed his teammates were teasing him. It looked like a rubber snake, and I thought somebody had pulled a practical joke on me, he said. When I grabbed it by the tail, thats when it jerked, and I dropped the helmet. The snake, 10-12 inches long, was killed shortly afterward. Its funny now, but it is something I dont take lightly, head coach Bill Harrelson said. All snakes are deadly in my book. Assistant coach Seth McKinzie said the snake did not appear to be venomous.
Strzelecki said it took him about ve minutes to build up the courage to put the helmet back on his head, but not before he looked in every corner of it. When you have it crawling on your head, it freaks you out, he said. It creeped me out. Even through the rest of practice, it felt like the snake was still crawling on me. Teammates later called him Snake Boy, hissed at him and, at times, wiggled their ngers inside the ear hole of Strzeleckis helmet. School maintenance workers made sure Wednesday there were no other critters in the locker room and the teams equipment.
CORAL GABLES, Fla. Miami has determined that eight football players, including quarterback Jacory Harris, are believed to have committed NCAA violations by associating with booster Nevin Shapiro and have been declared ineligible, said a person with knowledge of the process. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Thursday because no one is authorized to discuss the ongoing investigations by the university and the NCAA. Shapiro is a
convicted Ponzi scheme architect serving a 20-year prison sentence for bilking $930 million from investors, and his claims have cast a long shadow over Miamis season before it even begins. Simply being declared ineligible now doesnt necessarily mean a player would miss any time this season. The Miami Herald rst reported the decision to declare the players ineligible. Under NCAA rules, when a school finds violations have occurred, the athlete typically is declared ineligible and the NCAA

Harbaugh plans to use subs early Saturday

By Antonio Gonzalez
SANTA CLARA Jim Harbaugh has gone against conventional wisdom since the moment he arrived at San Francisco 49ers headquarters. One of the most noticeable differences came when the rst-year NFL head coach rearranged the locker room to spread out offensive and defensive players and made sure the same positions werent together. He also carefully paired training camp roommates. Its about the team, the team, the team at all times, Harbaugh said Thursday. As simple as when you come into a cafeteria, you walk in with a guy, you get your food in that same line and then go sit down together. Turn off the cellphone, take the earphones off and get to know a guy. Now that same philosophy is carrying deep into the exhibition season. Going against conventional wis-
dom again, Harbaugh plans to take many of his starters out early and give backups more meaningful minutes in San Franciscos pregame Jim Harbaugh season against Houston on Saturday. The third exhibition is traditionally a dress rehearsal for the regular season, with many teams playing starters into the second half. Not for Harbaugh. Condent that his rst-team units are mostly set, he all but named Alex Smith the starting quarterback and wants to see what rookie Colin Kaepernick and other backups can do against the best. So he plans to take Smith and others out early possibly after only one series with the option of returning them to the game late for another series or two. Get them ready before they need to be ready, Harbaugh said about
his reasoning for playing backups big minutes. With the NFL lockout washing away minicamps and a new coaching staff to incorporate, the 49ers gured to be behind most teams. Couple that with the fact Smith and other free agents couldnt practice for the rst week of training camp until the new labor agreement took shape, and most gured San Francisco would still be scrambling at this point. And maybe the 49ers still are. The projected starters, however, feel Harbaughs three-hour practices and grueling training regimen were enough to make up for lost time. Most said they are perfectly ne with Harbaughs against-thegrain approach to the preseason. We know the offense. We get almost like 300 reps in practice, receiver Josh Morgan said, smiling as he exaggerated just a little. We know it. He said he was going to make the practices as hard as possible so the games would be easy, he said. He kept his word.
The plan to push the backups goes well beyond quarterback. One of the biggest competitions left is for the spot behind two-time Pro Bowl running back Frank Gore; Anthony Dixon and rookie Kendall Hunter are promised big minutes against Houston. Other backups likely to see their minutes ramped up are secondstring receivers and players along both lines. Harbaugh also said he hopes third-string quarterback Josh McCown will see action. Coach already made it known the backups are going to compete, said Dixon, who rushed for 237 yards and two touchdowns last season behind Gore. These guys are expecting to go in there and go compete for the No. 2 spot. Mixing things up also shows how Harbaugh feels about the progression of his starters. The 49ers nished 6-10 last season, coach Mike Singletary was red and Harbaugh was hired away from nearby Stanford to turn things around. Harbaugh said he has been
more than pleased with how quickly players picked up his version of the West Coast offense, and he wouldnt have made the decision to back off his starters in the preseason if they hadnt. As Harbaugh hinted earlier this week, the break in the third preseason game might not be a long one. He could always chose to play his starters more in the fourth and nal preseason game Sept. 1 at San Diego when most traditionally rest depending on how they perform this weekend. Of course, with Harbaugh, nobody ever really knows for sure. I think looking back on a lot of seasons that Ive been involved with in pro football, the third preseason game is the important one, but its really important too in evaluating your football team, Harbaugh said. Whos going to make the team? Whos going to be on the practice squad? Along with getting the starters those opportunities. So its a bit of a balance there were going into with this week.
Pryor agrees to 4-year deal with Raiders

By Josh Dubow
Sports brief
Bar employees:Victim threw first punch in LSU brawl
BATON ROUGE, La. Two employees of the bar where LSU quarterback Jordan Jefferson and three teammates are accused of injuring four people in a parking lot brawl said Thursday that one of the victims threw the first punch shortly after he had been escorted outside by staff. In an interview with the Associated Press, Shadys Bar general manager John Peak and door manager Jordan Neldare offer versions of the bar ght that differ from details in a police report released Thursday. Neldare said he was outside and witnessed the ght rsthand, but had not yet been interviewed by police. There have been no arrests and no charges have been led in the incident.
NAPA Quarterback Terrelle Pryor agreed to a four-year contract with the Oakland Raiders on Thursday, three days after being picked in the third round of the NFL supplemental draft. A person familiar with the negotiations conrmed the deal to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because it had not been announced by the team. ESPN rst reported the announcement. Raiders senior executive John Herrera said Pryor had arrived in the Bay Area and was expected to sign a deal Thursday night. Pryor can start practicing with Oakland on Friday. The Raiders play their third exhibition game on Sunday against New Orleans and it would be extremely unlikely that
Pryor would play. The Raiders then will have three practices before the exhibition nale at Seattle on Sept. 2. After that game, Pryor will Terrelle Pryor be ineligible to practice with the Raiders until serving a ve-game suspension. When he was allowed to enter Mondays supplemental draft, Pryor was handed a suspension by Commissioner Roger Goodell for the same number of games he would have sat out had he returned to Ohio State. Pryor has said he will not appeal the suspension. Pryor gave up his nal season with the Buckeyes after an investigation into the teams memorabilia-
for-cash scandal that cost coach Jim Tressel his job. Pryor is an impressive physical specimen, measuring 6-foot-5 and 232 pounds and being clocked at 4.36 seconds in the 40-yard dash at his pro day last weekend. Pryor is coming off his best season statistically at Ohio State, throwing for 2,772 yards and 27 touchdowns with 11 interceptions. He ran for 754 yards and four TDs while helping the Buckeyes win the Sugar Bowl. There has been some speculation that Pryor could eventually play receiver or tight end in the NFL, but Raiders coach Hue Jackson said Monday that Pryor will start off as a quarterback. Oaklands starting quarterback is Jason Campbell, now in his second season with the Raiders. Campbell is eligible to be a free agent after the
season, as are backups Kyle Boller and Trent Edwards. The Raiders considered drafting a quarterback to groom for the future in April but did not nd the right t. Now they have Pryor to ll that role. Oakland is currently without picks in the second, third and fourth rounds in next years draft. The Raiders traded the 2012 secondround pick along with a 2011 seventh-round selection for third- and fourth-round picks this past draft to take offensive lineman Joe Barksdale and running back Taiwan Jones. They sent their fourth-round pick a year ago to the Redskins for Campbell. But Herrera said he expects the Raiders to recoup some picks as compensation for losing Nnamdi Asomugha, Zach Miller and Robert Gallery as free agents.

Yankees make it as easy as 1,2,3

to give up another grand slam. By that point, Melvin had seen enough. The walks, including 12 by the bullpen, just made it worse. Im going to have to recalculate here and see what we have, he said. Certainly that makes it worse when youre in that situation, Melvin added. For the most part at the end, just trying to throw the ball over the plate, trying to get some outs. The 22 runs marked the most allowed by the Athletics since 1955, when they were based in Kansas City and lost 29-6 to the Chicago White Sox. In nearly a century of storied slugging, the Bronx Bombers had never put on a show quite like this. Nobody had, in fact. Im surprised it hadnt been done before with all the great teams and great individual hitters that have come throughout the course of the game, Granderson said. On a dreary afternoon, some fans headed home with the Yankees trailing 7-1 after three innings and rain still falling in a game that began after an 89-minute delay. Turns out they missed the Yankees coming home over and over and over. Cano began the barrage with a clean shot into the lower deck in right eld off Harden. Martin

Robinson Cano, top, Russell Martin, middle, and Curtis Granderson all hit grand slams as the Yankees overcame a 7-1 decit to embarrass the As,22-9.
NEW YORK Talk about getting slammed. The Oakland Athletics made it all too easy for the New York Yankees, handing out 13 walks that helped set up a record three grand slams Thursday in a 22-9 romp. It was denitely embarrassing, As manager Bob Melvin said. Rich Harden started the parade, walking Curtis Granderson in the fth inning with the Athletics ahead 7-2. Moments later, Robinson Cano launched a slam. They were hitting good pitches. They hit the mistakes, too, Harden said. The next inning, reliever Fautino De Los Santos (2-1) walked two and threw a wild pitch. That led to Russell Martins slam that put the Yankees in front 10-7. As pitchers issued seven walks in a six-run seventh somehow, none of the Yankees managed to connect that inning. But Bruce Billings walked another in the eighth, and soon Granderson sent a no-doubt drive into New Yorks right-center eld bullpen, making the Yankees the rst team in major league history to hit three slams in a game. Billings watched Grandersons shot sail. I was looking at it, hoping that it was not going to go out, he said. Im not thinking about trying
connected in the sixth off De Los Santos for a y that barely made it over the auxiliary scoreboard in right. Granderson then took his turn in the eighth. With MLB in its 136th year and approaching its 200,000th regular-season game next month, the Yankees knew it was a slammin day. Not until they saw a note posted on the video board about the three slams, however, did they realize exactly what theyd achieved. Youre not going to see it again, probably, said captain Derek Jeter, who batted a whopping four times with the bases loaded and drove in one run. You cant explain it. Martin homered twice and doubled, setting career highs with ve hits and six RBIs. Cano and Granderson each drove in ve runs as the Yankees pulled off their biggest comeback win since 2006 and avoided a three-game sweep. This game has been played for a long time. Pretty much everything has already happened. Im waiting to see who hits four, Martin said. Funny, the Yankees had their chances to hit even more slams. They came to bat a startling 16 times with the bases loaded, going 6 for 13 with two walks and a sacrice y. Jeter grounded out twice, struck out and walked in his chances. Overall it was the Yankees highest-scoring game since they got 22 runs at Boston in 2000, and it tied the team record set in 1931 for most in a home game.

the night. The rookie right-hander, who began the season with the Giants before being shipped to Houston as part of the July 19 trade that sent inelder Jeff Keppinger to San Francisco, allowed only four singles and struck out three in his second straight start against his former team. Sosa got just enough support from his teammates. Schafer singled and scored in the rst, walked and scored in the third and then homered off Giants starter Ryan Vogelsong in the seventh. It was Schafers second home run for the Astros and the fourth of his career. He had gone 148 atbats since his last home run on June 13, with Atlanta. Wilton Lopez pitched two scoreless innings and Mark Melancon worked the ninth for his 14th save in 18 chances. San Francisco had the potential tying run at the plate in the ninth after Carlos Beltrans lead-
SAN FRANCISCO Jordan Schafer homered and scored three times, Henry Sosa pitched six strong innings against his former club to earn his rst career victory and the Houston Astros beat the San Francisco Giants 3-1 on Thursday night to end a four-game losing streak. J.D. Martinez doubled twice and had two RBIs for the Astros, who stole a season-high four bases and turned three double plays on defense. Houston, which still owns the worst record in the majors at 43-88, has won three of four against the defending World Series champs. Orlando Cabrera drove in San Franciscos only run with an RBI groundout in the third. The Giants, losers of ve of seven, fell three games behind rst-place Arizona in the NL West. Sosa (1-2) pitched with runners on base every inning but limited the damage with a crisp fastball and slider that bafed the Giants most of
off single but Pablo Sandoval hit into a 3-6-3 double play before Aubrey Huff ied out to end it. Vogelsong (10-4) gave up six hits over 7 1-3 innings but lost for the third time in four starts. Since beginning the season 8-1, Vogelsong is 1-3 with a 4.00 ERA over his last four starts. The Giants have scored only one run in the three losses. It was just the latest setback for San Franciscos pitching staff, which has been beset by a rash of injuries lately. The Giants, who have lost the opening game in their last 11 series, have even bigger issues with their offense. They put the leadoff hitter on base in ve consecutive innings but hit into three double plays and had two runners caught stealing. Martinez doubled in Schafer in the rst, then added a sacrice y in the third to score Schafer again, making it 2-0. Houstons rookie left elder, who began the season with Double-A Corpus Christi, has nine RBIs over his last ve games. Martinez also has
eight RBIs in four games against San Francisco this season. The Giants, held to two runs or fewer in four of their previous eight games, cut the gap to 21 on Cabreras RBI groundout in the third. They got some help from Sosa, called for a balk after Eli Whiteside singled and was sacriced to second. Sosas best work came in his nal inning. Cabrera walked to start the sixth and was sacriced to second, putting the potential tying run on base. Sosa, who had a no-decision against the Giants last Sunday, retired Beltran on a comebacker and then got Sandoval to ground out to third. Schafer made it 3-1 with his two-out homer in the seventh. NOTES: San Franciscos last win in a series opener was on July 18 against the Dodgers. ... Giants closer Brian Wilson played catch briey before the game but manager Bruce Bochy is unsure if the All-Star closer will be ready to come off the disabled list when hes eligible next week.

His best attribute is, he just plays and knows what to do. The kid has a cannon. Tsagarakis job is to get the ball into the hands of the teams playmakers, running back Damien Carter and the receiving corps. Although Parodi utilizes a spread offensive attack, it is still dependent on a strong running game and Carter provides that. At 5-foot-10, 220 pounds, Carter has the power and strength to bull over people, but is also nimble and fast enough to out-run defenders as well. As a sophomore, he was very close to being on varsity. Last year, he didnt play early, Parodi said. We expect big things from him. Hes a true running back. And once he get those wheels churning, he has a little giddyup. Backing up Carter will be sophomore Giancarlo Boscacci, who Parodi expects to see a lot of time. Hes a good mix-up kind of guy, Parodi said. We dont have much depth, so the guys we have are expected to play. Hes penciled in to be the backup at a couple of spots. Tsagarakis will have a slew of receiver from whom to choose. Kyle Mullen may be the biggest target at 6-foot-2, 205 pounds, but Parodi appears to be most excited about Z Houston, who is playing his rst year of high school football. Hes electric. His feet are phenomenal. His body moves in ways you wouldnt expect from a receiver, Parodi said. His raw talent is pretty dang good. Hes a basketball player too, so he has a little bit of that slither and shake to him. Josefa Vuatelavu, Tommy McKown, Rory Sarmiento and Ben Shani will add to the receiving depth.

The offensive line should be one of the offensives strengths this season. Parodi said he expects to start two seniors, two juniors and a sophomore up front this year. We have a little bit of youth and little bit of experience, Parodi said. The offensive line will be anchored by the two seniors: Sam Adams and Steven Beame. Those guys are in their third year in the system and theyre playing positions theyre comfortable playing. Many of the same players who are expected to star on offense will also be expected to do the same on defense. One player who could standout is defensive lineman Dijaun Jackson, who at 6-foot-1 and 220 pounds has the size and ability to wreak havoc in the opposing offensive backeld. Hes a good, quick dude off the edge, Parodi said. Very football smart. Good instincts. Just extremely athletic. Carter, Mullen and Vuatelavu will man linebacker spots, while the receivers will also double as defensive backs. We have to play the guys who will win us games. Were not in the position to go one way right now. If youre dressing up for Hillsdale, youre going to be playing, Parodi said. With so many two-starters, however, Parodi said there is a delicate balance between keeping them in the game to make plays and to make sure they are getting the rest they need for optimum game performance. Thats always a work in progress, Parodi said. We tell the kids to go as much as you can go, but if youre so tired you cant help us, you need to tell us (the coaching staff). We dont want them out there just to be out there. We understand these kids are going to be exhausted. We have to do whats best for the team. Its OK to be so exhausted for playing so hard.
Another German joins U.S.mens soccer team

CHICAGO Jurgen Klinsmann isnt the only German switching to the U.S. mens team. Fabian Johnson, who started for Germany in the nal of the Under-21 European Championship just two years ago, switched allegiance to the United States and was among 24 players chosen by Klinsmann on Thursday for exhibitions against Costa Rica and Belgium next month. The midelder joins right back Timmy Chandler, a German-born defender who made his U.S. debut earlier this year. Chandler was on Klinsmanns original roster for the Aug. 10 game against Mexico, his rst game as U.S. coach after being hired to replace Bob Bradley. But after talking with Chandler, Klinsmann decided it was better the 21-year-old stay with club
team Nuremberg after its Bundesliga opener against Hertha Berlin. Klinsmann also will get his rst look at Clint Dempsey and Jozy Altidore, two of the Americans most potent scorers. Altidore scored twice in AZ Alkmaars 6-0 win over Aaselund in Europa League play Thursday, giving him ve goals with his Dutch team. Dempsey scored twice in Fulhams 3-0 victory over Dnipro last week in the Europa League. While Klinsmann continued his pledge to give new players a look, he bypassed veterans Michael Bradley, Jermaine Jones and Ricardo Clark. All three of these players are trying to sort out their club situations, and the deadline for transfers is a week away, Klinsmann said. They have also not been playing matches, so for these reasons we decided to select different players for this roster.
NFL preseason roundup

Eagles 24, Browns 14
PHILADELPHIA Michael Vick led three scoring drives, the rst-team defense pitched a shutout and the Eagles beat the Cleveland Browns 24-14 on a rain-soaked Thursday night. Vick took a lot of hits and had to escape trouble quite a bit. Still, he managed to complete 10 of 18 passes for 98 yards. He ran for 24 yards and a touchdown. Against defending AFC champion Pittsburgh last week, Vick threw three interceptions in the rst half and the starting defense allowed touchdowns on the rst two drives. Colt McCoy and the rest of Clevelands starting offense hardly looked like the crew that scored ve TDs on nine possessions in the rst two preseason games. The Browns punted four times, missed a eld goal and McCoy threw an interception on six rst-half drives. Cedric Benson and Bernard Scott ran for Cincinnati touchdowns. Newton, the Heisman Trophy winner for national champion Auburn, went 3 of 12 for 43 yards in the rst half. That was two yards more than he rushed for in the half, including a 16-yard touchdown scramble. He played the rst three series of the third quarter and nished 6 for 19 for 75 yards.
Ravens 34, Redskins 31

BALTIMORE Rex Grossman and John Beck each threw a touchdown pass in their duel to become the starting quarterback for the Redskins, who lost to the Ravens. Tyrod Taylor threw a 9-yard touchdown pass to Brandon Jones with 22 seconds left for the Ravens (2-1), a score set up by LaQuan Williams 38-yard punt return. Grossman started for the Redskins (2-1), and each quarterback alternatingly played two series before third-stringer Kellen Clemens entered in the fourth quarter. Grossman went 8 for 15 for 112 yards, directed an 80-yard scoring drive and nished with a quarterback rating of 99.9. Beck completed six of 10 passes for 108 yards with an interception for a 90.8 rating. He guided Washington on a 97-yard march against Baltimores second-string defense for a 28-21 lead in the third quarter. Well make sure we practice enough guys because we really dont know what the future brings, Golden said. Hopefully well nd out pretty quickly here in the near future if there are any penalties or suspensions, and well adjust accordingly. Golden said he has a plan for which personnel to use against the Terrapins. And another plan, just in case. And, well, another plan, in case things change some more. All of the above, Golden said. Harris and all other Miami players implicated by claims that Shapiro provided dozens of Hurricanes with extra benets like cash, cars, gifts and sex for the better part of a decade returned to the practice eld Thursday after a brief break for the start of the academic year.
INDIANS
I think (the improvement is) going to continue with this group, Poti said. Theyre quick, they can run like I said, under the helmet, its going to take some time, but we have ve weeks to get ready for the Bay. I think its going to be a fun year. We lost three starters, but the three guys that replaced them are showing that its not going to take very long (to ll those voids). Im excited about our defense. Were young and we have a schedule that is going to force our kids to step up pretty quickly. Myles Holmes, at defensive back, and Sky Luavasa at outside linebacker, will be key cogs in the Indian defense. Its a group lled with exciting athletes that can y to the football. Offensively, the Jefferson will have some work to do. Jesse Gilson will take the snaps under center after spending some time as a tight end in 2010. Hell be protected by some good size up front, with brothers Lo and Jericho Tamasese leading the way. Theyre denitely going to be key, Poti said. Holmes will ll one of the wide out spots and Romier Arate, who came up for the postseason in 2010, moves up from the frosh/soph to compliment the senior on the other end. But the offense will be carried by Mike Allen, the senior running back
Coach: Ako Poti,3rd year Record: 5-0 PAL Ocean,8-2 overall Returning Starters:12 Key Returners: Lo Tamasese (Sr., C), Jericho Tamasese (So.,LT),Mike Allen (Sr.,RB),Myles Holmes (Sr.,DB/WR),Jesse Gilson (Sr.,QB),Sky Luavasa (Sr.,TE/DE) Key newcomers: Tala Togiaso (Jr., OL/TE/RB), Po Kofe (Jr., QB),Romier Arate (Jr.,WR). 2011 schedule (home games in CAPS): 9/2 MILPITAS,7 p.m.; 9/9 @ Pittsburg, 7 p.m.; 9/16 vs. Sacred Heart Cathedral at Kezar,7 p.m.;9/23 SOUTH CITY,6 p.m.; 9/30 @ El Camino, 7 p.m.; 10/14 TERRA NOVA,7 p.m.; 10/21 @ Menlo-Atherton,7 p.m.; 10/28 BURLINGAME, 7 p.m.; 11/4 @ Sacred Heart Prep,2:45 p.m.;11/11 KINGS ACADEMY,7 p.m.
who missed the CCS playoffs with an injury during the season nale. Poti says Allen has worked like a mad man to get back into playing shape, and hell have to come up huge for the Indians in the seasons earlier stages. Mike is denitely going to be the workhorse of the offense, Poti said. I think with what hes done physically to get ready for the season (is great), and I told him, Im going to lean on you early and maybe often. But we have a couple of guys on the outside that can really stretch the eld and Jesse slings it pretty good. Once Jesse gets in tune with what were trying to do, maybe Mike can take a break. New to the Indians varsity is Tala Togiaso, up from the frosh-soph, who Poti said, can play right offensive tackle, running back, tight end. Hes very versatile, hes got natural strength, hes got speed to run outside. Hes a unique athlete. Poti knows his Indians will have to earn their stay in the Bay. The division is going to test everybody, he said. This has always been a goal of mine as a coach, and for Jefferson as a program to get to the Ocean and then get to the Bay. And play well. Thats where I want my kids to think right now. It was hard to change that mindset of, Its OK to lose, and I think weve turned the corner on that. Week in and week out its going to be a challenge in the Bay.
Bengals 24, Panthers 13

CINCINNATI Cincinnati rookie quarterback Andy Dalton led four rst-half scoring drives while overall No. 1 draft pick Cam Newton of Carolina struggled in the Bengals preseason victory. Dalton, Cincinnatis secondround pick from Texas Christian, was 11 of 17 for 130 yards and a touchdown, putting together a 107.5 quarterback rating. He didnt play in the second half.
MIAMI
begins a reinstatement process. The NCAA will also decide if that player needs to miss any games. And the clock is running: Miami opens the season at Maryland on Sept. 5. The school must declare the student-athlete ineligible and then can seek reinstatement, NCAA spokesperson Stacey Osburn said. Earlier Thursday, Miami coach Al Golden suggested that the depth chart might not be announced until Tuesday. All of the players implicated by Shapiro in a story published by Yahoo Sports were practicing Thursday, and have been on the eld throughout the process.

California advances at Little League World Series

league pitcher proud. Danner struck out 12 and hit a home run, and California spoiled the Pennsylvania party at the Little League World Series with a 2-0 victory over the hometown heroes from Clinton County to advance to the U.S. nal Saturday and a rematch against Billings, Mont. Montana beat California 1-0 in seven innings Wednesday night.
SUN MON TUE WED THU
SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. Hagen Danner pitched the biggest game of his Little League career before a large, passionate crowd rarely seen at youth baseball games. The 12-year-old ace from Huntington Beach, Calif., came through with a performance Thursday night that would make even the most seasoned major
FRI SAT
Pennsylvania was eliminated. Danner was the biggest reason why with a stellar night on the mound being leaving in the sixth because of Little Leagues pitchcount rules. The cool Danner got out of a fthinning jam with one out and a runner on third with a grounder and yout. Somebody said to me before the
game, You know there is going to be a big crowd there, Danner said. And I said, What crowd? I was thinking there wasnt going to crowd there, that there would be no noise. I heard the noise, but I wasnt bothered by it. Either on the mound, or at the plate, where Danner homered to right-center in the third. With the Lamade Stadium stands
rocking, Pennsylvania later put the tying run at the plate with one out in the sixth after Alex Garbrick reached on an ineld single. But closer Braydon Salzman ended Clinton Countys run with a strikeout and a force play at second. Japan moved on as well, to the international nal Saturday against Mexico, with a 9-6 victory over Maracay, Venezuela.

Kia adds mid-size hatchback

By Ann M. Job
Behind the wheel

2011 Kia Forte SX 5-Door BASE PRICE:$16,895 for EX with manual;$17,895 for EX with automatic;$18,395 for SX manual; $19,395 for SX automatic. PRICE AS TESTED:$23,695. TYPE:Front-engine,front-wheeldrive,ve-passenger,mid-size hatchback. ENGINE:2.4-liter,double overhead cam,inline four cylinder with CVVT. MILEAGE:23 mpg (city),32 mpg (highway). LENGTH: 170.9 inches. WHEELBASE:104.3 inches. CURB WEIGHT: 2,944 pounds. BUILT AT:South Korea. OPTIONS:SX technology package (includes navigation system, automatic temperature control, push-button start with smart key) $1,800;leather package (includes heated front seats and leather seat trim) $1,700;power sunroof $750.
The newest Kia Forte is second-best in government fuel economy ratings among 2011 mid-size hatchbacks. Only the Toyota Prius, with hybrid gasoline-electric powertrain, does better. But the new-for-2011 Forte 5-Door gets its rating of 26 miles per gallon in city driving and 36 mpg on the highway from its base, four-cylinder engine and a six-speed automatic transmission. The newest Forte also adds 32 percent more cargo space, a bit more rear-seat headroom and a lot more style than its sibling Forte sedan. Its the additional cargo space that vaults this ve-door Forte into the larger, midsize class. The four-door Forte sedan is classied by the government as a compact. Adding to the Forte interest, Consumer Reports magazine has listed the Forte as a recommended buy, and it comes with a 10year/100,000-mile limited powertrain warranty and a five-year/60,000-mile limited, bumper-to-bumper warranty. I just wish the Forte hatchback test car had a more rened suspension and ride, a bit ritzier interior and better crash test ratings. Starting manufacturers suggested retail price, including destination charge, for the 2011 Forte 5-Door is $17,645 with 156-horsepower, four-cylinder engine and manual transmission. The lowest starting retail price for a 2011 Forte 5-Door with automatic is $18,645. The Forte 5-Door with a more powerful, 173horsepower, four-cylinder engine starts at $19,145 with manual transmission and $20,145 with automatic. Note that these prices include items that are not usually standard equipment on base hatchbacks, such as Bluetooth wireless phone connectivity and keyless entry. Meantime, the Prius starts at $24,280 and is rated at 51/48 mpg by the federal government because of its use of supplemental, on-boardgenerated electric power. Another hatchback competitor without hybrid technology is the 2011 Mazda3 five-door, which starts at $20,840 with 167-horsepower four cylinder

tially dangerous outcomes. On Thursday, the Daily Journal spoke with one of CORAs clients who was able to nd a safe place to live with her two children out of the reach of her husband, an abusive man who has stalked her for years. She has yet to le for divorce because she fears that will allow the violent man a way to track her down. The Daily Journal is not publishing her name to protect her identity. She separated from her husband while living in Contra Costa County in 2009 and was supported for a while by her family. Her husband, however, tracked her down to residences in both Pacica and South San Francisco and was able to keep from being served with a restraining order on 11 different occasions. Her husband was abusive throughout the relationship, she said, and had a violent past she was not aware of until ling for the restraining order. After her husband tracked her down again, she decided to seek the help of CORA, which immediately provided shelter for her and her two children. Unable to find a place on her own, she enrolled in the Moving Forward program and staff at CORA helped her find a permanent apartment by providing the landlord a $2,600 deposit. She has been living in the apartment for a year now, out of reach of her stalker husband. My family offered me as much assistance as they could but they couldnt give any more, she said. She now has a full-time job and is able to care for her children. I feel at peace now, like I dont have to constantly watch my back, she said. She no longer suffers with anxiety like she did in previous years. CORA gets funding from foundations as well as from the government but also relies on private donations from the public. It contracts with San Mateo County to provide emergency shelter, transitional housing, a crisis hot line, counseling and community education. But the county is suffering with its own budget decit and funds for many programs are becoming scarce. CORAs crisis hotline volume increased 13 percent from 2005 to 2011, said its Executive Director Melissa Lukin. It has also seen a 35 percent increase in volume in referrals from local law enforcement agencies over the same period, Lukin said. The stimulus money, provided through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, was beneficial, Lukin said, in keeping domestic violence victims off the
17
MONEY
federal grant, through stimulus funds, to support a program CORA calls Moving Forward. The grant allowed CORA to provide more than just a night or two of emergency shelter. Instead, it could offer transitional housing and supportive services to help victims on the brink of being homeless become self-sufcient. The goal of the program is to nd permanent housing for victims, said Steve Anderson, CORAs housing services manager. About 40 victims have graduated the program with 15 more close to graduating. The funds, though, are about to sunset and the grant money for the Moving Forward program will not be available as the federal stimulus program nears completion, said Cori Manthorne, CORAs director of programs. With the grant funding running out, so will the programs unless CORA can nd another money source. Anderson, Manthorne and other CORA staff have seen the success stories through the Moving Forward program and worry its disappearance will mean domestic violence victims lose a layer of support that could lead to poten-
streets and out of hospitals. Most in abusive relationships want to leave but many dont have the means to and there is a good chance they will stay with their abuser, Anderson said. CORA hopes to decrease its dependency on government money but foundations, too, are seeing less donations come in as are most nonprot agencies. There is more competition for fewer dollars, Lukin said. CORA plans a major donor campaign this fall to spell out the services it provides to victims who are often hidden away due to the sensitive nature of their abusive situations. CORA ofcials hope public education will lead to greater nancial aid. Likewise, Ma said the audit request will insure domestic violence shelters receive every cent that is owed them under the law. In light of the current increase in demand on shelters, it is imperative to ensure that shelters are receiving the funding that is allocated to them by law, Ma wrote in a statement. I believe that this audit will serve to shine light in this area, and provide information that we hope will ultimately help to serve the higher number of victims seeking services.

and manual transmission and is rated at 20/28 mpg. In personality, the Forte is middle of the range between the sport-inclined Mazda3 hatchback and the fuel-sipping Prius. And it looks that way, too. The Forte 5-Door is well proportioned on the outside and attractive. But its neither overtly sporty nor utilitarian in appearance. Inside, passengers nd a good amount of room in both front and rear seats. In fact, headroom in the rear seats measures 38.4 inches, which is more than the 37.6 inches in the Forte sedan. Front headroom of 40 inches is the same in both body styles and works well for even 6-footers. Rear legroom is 35 inches in both Forte sedan and hatchback, and with the drivers seat up a ways on its track, I sat comfortably behind in the hatchback. But like the sedan, which has the same 69.9-inch width, the Forte 5-Door sets the middle person in the rear seat close to and touching the two other rear-seat passengers. Seats in the test Forte, with optional leather trim, looked good and pro-
vided decent comfort. But the cars ride readily sent vibrations and jolts to the seat cushions. The hatchback suspension independent MacPherson struts in front and torsion beam at the rear seemed inordinately busy on even relatively smooth roads. There were constant sounds and chatter going on under the car oor that could become distracting, even if passengers werent feeling road bumps intimately. There was considerable road noise, too, in the Forte, particularly on rough, just-scraped pavement that sent me reaching for the volume knob on the radio so I could mask the sounds with more music. The test hatchback was the top-of-theline SX, which had the uplevel, 173horse four cylinder and six-speed automatic. This six-speed transmission helps maximize fuel mileage even on this more highly equipped model, which included standard paddle shifters for shift-it-yourself moves without needing a clutch pedal. I heard the engine often as I pressed it up hills and around town. The sounds were OK, but sometimes a bit raspy. I felt shift points at times, too, as the Forte sought to respond to my demands. There wasnt the smoothness to the gear changes that I experienced in some other cars. Overall, though, the engine delivered
power steadily and with good response. Torque peaks at 168 foot-pounds at 4,000 rpm, and I never felt the car lagging, even when I had four adults and some luggage inside. I didnt even try to maximize fuel mileage and yet I got 27 mpg in driving that was 65 percent in the city and the rest on highways. This allowed for a 370-mile range on a single, 13.7-gallon tank of regular gas. The dashboard area of the Forte 5Door was well-arranged and easy to understand. I just wished the plastics didnt seem so generic in my test car that topped out at more than $23,000. Its easy to reach inside the sizable rear-door openings to unlatch and then ip down the Forte hatchbacks rear seatbacks. And theres no doubt that the 19.4 cubic feet of cargo space, which compares with the 14.7 cubic feet in the Forte sedan, was exible and accommodating. All safety equipment is standard on the Forte 5-Door, including six air bags, traction control and electronic stability control. But the federal government crash test ratings for the Forte are not as good as for some competitors. Specically, in crash testing into a frontal barrier, the Forte received ve out of ve stars for driver protection but only three out of ve stars for front-passenger protection.

B-action andsexy women assasins

Colombianaknows how silly,sexy it is
By Christy Lemire
A brawny B-action picture with a gorgeous, graceful woman wreaking havoc at its center: Yup, Colombiana is a Luc Besson movie. The director of La Femme Nikita and The Fifth Element serves as co-writer and producer here, but this is very much a spin-off of his brand, a continuation of the kind of stereotype- and gravity-defying characters hes made his name on. Colombiana feels more hammy and muscular, though but knowingly so, and thats what makes it solid, latesummer escapist fun. Zoe Saldana stars as Cataleya, who saw her parents killed in front of her when she was just a 9year-old schoolgirl living in the slums of Bogota. Played as a child by the intense Amandla Stenberg in her film debut, she escapes by performing a dizzying series of parkour moves across rooftops and through windows before making her way to the U.S. Embassy to vomit up the
microchip her father entrusted with her. No, the film from French director Olivier Megaton (Transporter 3) is not subtle. As the production notes so helpfully inform us, Megaton takes his name from his birthday: The 6th of August 1965 is the 20th anniversary of the dropping of the Hiroshima Abomb. But certainly you werent looking for that, now, were you? Anyway, 15 years later, with the help of her Uncle Emilio (Cliff Curtis), Cataleya has become a highly efcient professional assassin, but she still seeks revenge against the drug kingpin (Beto Benites) and his right-hand man (Jordi Molla) who are responsible for her parents deaths. The mark she leaves on her victims bodies a drawing of the orchid shes named for is a message for her childhood enemies but it also sparks the curiosity of the FBI agent who thinks hes tracking a serial killer. (Lennie James serves as the lms lone source of dignity and calm in the role.) Over-the-top bad guys spew generically menacing lines and hot women parade around in bikinis and lingerie.

Farmiga moves us with Higher Ground

By Christy Lemire
Vera Farmiga has done something miraculous in her directing debut, Higher Ground. Shes managed to make a movie about religion thats neither preachy nor mocking, and she treats her characters with great decency and respect. Farmiga extends that courtesy to herself as its star, and her character, Corinne like the movie itself seems to be seeking answers with an open heart. Based on the memoir This Dark World by Carolyn S. Briggs (who cowrote the script with Tim Metcalfe), Higher Ground traces Corinnes evolution from the mid-1960s to the mid1980s, beginning with the time she was a little girl and thought she was saved at vacation bible school through her adulthood as a still-questioning wife and mother of three. She and her would-be rocker husband, Ethan (played as a teenager by Boyd Holbrook and as an adult by Joshua Leonard), fall in with an insular, evangelical Christian community, full of happy hippies who sing hymns and hold their services outdoors. Corinne seems
to have found the security and nourishment shed long been looking for, but still experiences bouts of doubt that others dont seem to share. Its as if shes constantly trying to talk herself into believing, even though she outwardly appears so fervent, and Farmiga makes that precarious state of faith palpable. Theres always been a striking naturalism to her performances in films ranging from Down to the Bone to The Departed to her Oscar-nominated supporting work in Up in the Air. Here, she applies a similar approach behind the camera, which draws us in and makes Corinnes journey feel immediate and relatable, regardless of where any of us might stand in terms of our own spirituality. Corinne is equal parts sweetness and sharp intellect, and Higher Ground probably sounds rather somber, but Farmiga also deftly conveys the absurdity of Corinnes predicament. Every once in a while shell let out a cackle thats just pure joy. But seeing her in such moments of bliss makes the darker times stand in stark contrast. The lack of support she receives from her husband as she suffers this crisis of faith is just one in a series of events that shake her to her core. But
again, Higher Ground doesnt judge him or vilify him; there are no bad guys thats whats so refreshing. Even some of the more judgmental church members who urge Corinne to mind her place are depicted not as cruel but as well-intentioned. And as the lm concludes, theres still a bold sense of ambiguity; Corinnes fate is open for interpretation. The excellent supporting cast includes the ever-versatile John Hawkes and Donna Murphy as Corinnes parents, and a vivacious Dagmara Dominczyk as the one free spirit in her otherwise structured, conservative church. But its Farmigas younger sister, Taissa, who plays the character as a pregnant newlywed teen, who really stands out. Yes, she looks startlingly like the elder Farmiga and even has some of the same mannerisms and facial expressions. But her performance is also crucial to laying the emotional groundwork for us to want to go down this path with Corinne, wherever it may take us. And we do. Higher Ground, a Sony Pictures Classics release, is rated R for some language and sexual content. Running time: 109 minutes. Three and a half stars out of four.

of Dijon. Following the French Revolution, the tomb was dismantled and moved to the Muse des Beaux-Arts in Dijon, where it has remained since the early 19th century. The tomb, which is not traveling with the exhibition, comprises lifesized efgies of the duke and his wife, Margaret of Bavaria, resting upon a slab of black marble. The procession of mourners weaves through an ornate Gothic arcade beneath. Each individual gure has a different expression some wring their hands or dry their tears, hide their faces in the folds of their robes or appear lost in reverent contemplation. The motif echoes that of ancient sarcophagi, but these innovative tombs were the rst to represent mourners as thoroughly dimensional, rather than in semi-relief. Curator Dr. Lynn Federle Orr, who is responsible for the San Francisco presentation, recalls her early discovery of The Mourners, I remember so clearly sitting in a dark hall for an Art I slide lecture and being startled by an image of the simple, but powerful, beauty of the Dijon Mourners. In one of those transformative moments, I was entranced by these small gures. They spoke so eloquently across the centuries about what it means to be human. And they have lost nothing of their emotional power. It is such a privilege to share the Mourners with our Bay Area visitors. The Legion of Honor Museum is located in Lincoln Park, 34th Ave. and Clement St., San Francisco. Museum hours are Tuesday through Sunday, 9:30 a.m. to 5:15 p.m.; closed on Monday. For information visit www.legionofhonor.org or call (415) 750-3600. The Mourners: Tomb Sculptures from the Court of Burgundy is on view through Dec. 31. CONSIDER A TRIP TO DIJON. The city of Dijon, a quick hour and a half train ride from Paris, retains a wonderful variety of architectural styles. Many of the old buildings, such as the half-timbered houses, date from the 12th to the 15th centuries. Dijons church of Notre Dame is famous for both its art and architecture. Popular legend has it that one of its stone relief sculptures, an owl, is a goodluck charm; visitors to the church touch the owl with their left hands to make a wish.

The Mourners: Tomb Sculptures from the Court of Burgundy, at San Franciscos Legion of Honor, features 37 exceptional devotional gures that recreate the mourners in a royal funeral procession. The gures, on loan from the Muse des BeauxArts de Dijon, were commissioned for the tomb of the second Duke of Burgundy and carved by Jean de la Huerta and Antoine le Moiturier between 1443 and 1456-57. The works have never been seen in their entirety outside of France prior to their current seven-city exhibition tour on which San Francisco is the penultimate stop. The Legion opening was attended by Senator Mayor of Dijon Francois Rebsamen, in company with an ofcial contingent from Dijon. During the 14th and 15th centuries, the dukes of Burgundy were among the most powerful rulers in the Western world, presiding over vast territories in present-day France, Luxembourg, Belgium and the Netherlands from their capital in Dijon. The sculptures, each approximately 16-inches high, depict sorrowful gures expressing their grief or devotion to John the Fearless (13711419), the second Duke of Burgundy, who was both a powerful political figure and patron of the arts. The tomb, of which they are an integral part, was commissioned for the Charterhouse of Champmol, the familys monastic complex outside

New takes on the lime rickey

n our rush to overschedule our lives, its easy to overlook some of the simple summer traditions that make this season so wonderful. When I was a child, twice a week my parents and I would load the car with 10gallon glass bottles. The bottles and I would bounce around the back seat (Seatbelts? What seatbelts?) as we headed to the nearby Merrimack River. There, just across the street from the water, was an ice cream shop that also sold spring water from a tap outside its back door. There was always a crowd lines for the water, lines for the ice cream. Big old classic banana boats. Frappes topped with whipped cream and plastic toy soldiers with real parachutes. Brownie sundaes that I craved but never tried because the brownies were jammed with walnuts (I still cant abide nuts in baked goods). In fact, I never got ice cream of any
Restaurant pioneer turns 40,spawns many careers

BERKELEY If the restaurant world had farm teams, Chez Panisse is where the talent scouts would hang out. The Berkeley restaurant, cofounded by food activist Alice Waters 40 years ago, is famous as a pioneer of serving fresh, local food in season. But in culinary circles it may be just as well known as the training ground for a number of leading lights of the food revolution. To name just a handful: Jeremiah Tower, founder of the former Stars restaurant in San Francisco and one of the originators so-called California cuisine; Paul Bertolli, who served as head chef from 1982 to 1992 and went on to become head chef of Oliveto, an Italian restaurant in Oakland, before opening the gourmet salumi company Fra Mani; and Russell Moore, coowner of Oaklands Camino restaurant. Add to that Dan Barber of the Blue Hill restaurants in New York, Suzanne Goin of Lucques restaurant in Los Angeles and Steve Sullivan, cofounder of the Acme Bread Company.

Back then, Heritage Farm Ice Cream (named for Heritage State Park that ran along the river in front of it) was known for its lime rickeys ice cold sweetsour drinks that bear only a casual resemblance to the boozy cocktail with which they share a name. Heavy hits of lime juice and sugar mixed with crushed ice and seltzer water so heavily carbonated the bubbles would come up the straw. It was pure summer.

The guest list for the anniversary weekend includes such food luminaries as author Michael Pollan (The Omnivores Dilemma) and Carlo Petrini, founder of Slow Food. Also attending is musician David Byrne, writer and editor Ruth Reichl, and actor and Edible Schoolyard ambassador Jake Gyllenhaal. In a world where restaurants open and close in the blink of a season, 40 years is a milestone, one Bertolli credits to unrelenting commitment to singular purpose simple, pure food. Thinking of the anniversary, Waters was feeling incredibly sentimental and overwhelmed. I guess excited, too, at the possibility of just jumping up on the table and trying to really gather this unstoppable movement together. Reaching 40 also means a lot of memories. Bertolli vividly remembers the night I made Bouillabaisse with Lulu Peyraud and the Lingcod jumped out of the box and nearly took her arm off. Also, the night Alice sequence of hand-to-hand combat featuring towels and toothbrushes reminiscent of the third Bourne movie.

On a more prosaic note was the time Moore decided to make paella for 350 people at staff meal and had the crazy idea that I could cook it all in one pan. I built this tremendous fire but I ended up with heat stroke and had to go lie down with my feet in a bucket of ice water. Moore sees Chez Panisse as an environment where the competition is fierce and everything is critiqued, which is intense and amazing all at once.

The restaurant also ignores conventional kitchen hierarchy chefs do as much grunt work and prep as everyone else in the kitchen. It tapped into a kind of creativity, Waters says.

Waters has always served as executive chef, though these days she devotes much of her time to running the Chez Panisse Foundation, a non-profit organization that funds the Edible Schoolyard, a kitchen and garden program integrated into the academic curriculum of an urban middle school.

What made Chez Panisse such a talent incubator? Part of Alices genius I think is to see a spark of something in people and to figure out if that spark relates to a little fire that shed like to have going in the restaurant for a while, says Sullivan, who started at Chez Panisse as an 18-year-old busboy and went on to become the restaurants baker before founding Acme, which still supplies Chez Panisse. Waters herself thinks it may be due to the restaurants philosophy of food, sourcing food at its freshest and teaching cooks to prepare food simply and use the tastiest ingredients. The culture of Chez Panisse also plays a factor. Chefs are challenged by daily menu changes and must decide what they will serve based on what is in the market and

For great salad, just-picked is best

By J.M. Hirsch
When constructing a great salad, Alice Waters wants it to be fresh. Really fresh. I want salad that has just been picked, that has a feeling of aliveness to it, Waters said in a recent e-mail interview. I like a mix of colors and textures of lettuces and herbs bibb, young romaine, frisee, oak leaf, mint. The quality of the oil, vinegar, fresh garlic and salt is vital! And Waters the woman behind the iconic Berkeley, Calif., restaurant Chez Panisse doesnt hesitate to eat salad whenever the mood strikes. I eat salad with every meal, as a rst course, or in a little pile along with the main dish, or before dessert, she said. And I eat it for lunch and breakfast! For the APs 20 Salads of Summer series, Waters offered a simple but stunning heirloom and cherry tomato salad. I am always thinking a number of questions when I set out to make this, she said. First, what month is it? Are the tomatoes dead ripe? Which varietals are the ripest? Is the garlic fresh? What sort of fruity olive oil do I have to use?
Salt 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil Ground black pepper Green and purple basil leaves, chopped Lemon cucumbers and torpedo onions (optional) Arrange the tomatoes in a shallow bowl or on a platter. Set aside. To make the vinaigrette, in a small bowl macerate the shallot in the vinegar with the garlic and a little salt for 15 minutes. Whisk in the oil. Taste and adjust the acidity and the salt as necessary. Season the tomatoes with salt and pepper, then sprinkle on the chopped basil leaves. Carefully dress with the vinaigrette. Thin slices of peeled lemon cucumber and torpedo onion are wonderful additions to the salad.

AIOLI
Start to nish: 5 minutes Makes 1 1/4 cups 2 or 3 small garlic cloves Pinch of salt 1 egg yolk 1/2 teaspoon water 1 cup olive oil Using a mortar and pestle, pound the garlic and salt until smooth. In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, half of the garlic paste and the water. Whisking constantly, slowly dribble the oil into the egg yolk mixture. As the egg yolk absorbs the oil, the sauce will thicken, lighten in color and become opaque. This will happen rather quickly. Then you can add the oil a little faster, whisking all the while. If the sauce is thicker than you like, thin it with a few drops of water. Taste and add more salt and garlic as desired.
A simple but stunning heirloom and cherry tomato salad is perfect for summer.
HEIRLOOM AND CHERRY TOMATO SALAD

When we made this delicious salad, we didnt have the optional lemon cucumbers or torpedo onions. But we found half of a medium red onion and three baby cucumbers, peeled and seeded, were ne substitutes. Its a very forgiving recipe. So long as you use fresh ingredients, you cant go wrong. Start to nish: 25 minutes Servings: 4 1/2 pint assorted cherry tomatoes, halved 2 pounds heirloom tomatoes, different colors and sizes, cored and cut into wedges or slices 1 shallot, nely diced 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar 1 clove garlic, smashed

for companies. He could not provide an estimate for the number of jobs the plan might create. In outlining his California Jobs First package, Brown asked Republican lawmakers to join him and business leaders to free up money for companies that would help Californias economy. Preserving this bill is preserving a forcing out of California jobs and I dont think anybody who serves the people of California is going to want to do that, Brown said. California has the nations second-highest unemployment rate after Nevada. The ofcial jobless rate climbed back to 12 percent last month. Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg said back in 2009, Democrats were forced into a corner by Republicans, whose votes were needed to pass tax increases. The Legislature approved an extension on sales, income and vehicle taxes that expired this year. Brown, a Democrat, has been trying to change that since. He proposed closing the loophole in his original budget plan this year, but he could not get it through the Legislature. This time, instead of using the money to close the states decit, he wants to direct the $1 billion in revenue toward businesses that manufacture and hire in California. The plan calls for a 3.9 percent state sales tax exemption for startup manufacturers and a 3 percent exemption for all other rms buying manufacturing equipment. Such an exemption is aimed at beneting California manufacturers, biopharmaceuticals, clean energy and software developers. Brown also wants to raise the employer tax credit and give it to more small businesses. He wants to raise the credit from $3,000 to $4,000 per worker for businesses that employ up to 50 people. Currently, the credit applies only to businesses with up to 20 employees. ferent facilities being maintained such as raptor and songbird aviaries, a diving pool for sea birds, a duck pond and mammal enclosures. Types of wildlife animals include ducklings, owls, deer, eagles, hawks, pelicans, rats, skunks, squirrels, raccoons, possums, monkeys and, more recently, baby birds. Domestic animal owners can be cited under animal cruelty investigation if their animal is found under unhealthy or unusual circumstances, said Jeff Christner, captain of animal rescue and control ofcer of PHS. The investigation issues notices to ensure animal welfare. If not complied with, owners are charged with crime, Christner said. Animals get themselves caught in such crazy rescue predicaments that being able to help them when they cant help themselves is worthwhile, Christner said. They are not able to voice for help and they rely on us for their well-being. Natural environments similar to the wild are created for animals in a humane society, said Jo-Anne Dao, a six-year volunteer at PHS. Being a foster and sergeant parent is critical to help these beautiful creatures back on their feet and take the next giant step forward, she said. Animals inadvertently do what they do for survival to obtain food, shelter and water, Dao said. This is their land and where they live. Who are we to label them as pests or nuisances?

JOBS
Assembly Republican Leader Connie Conway, of Tulare, said the minority party in the Legislature does not believe taxes need to be increased in order to provide business tax breaks. If the governor actually believes his tax breaks will stimulate the economy and create jobs, then he should move forward without raising taxes on other businesses, Conway said in a statement. The backbone of the governors plan involves changing how large, out-of-state companies calculate their tax liability. Brown wants them to calculate it solely on the portion of sales they have in California, a method called single-sales factor. Under a complex 2009 budget deal constructed at the height of the states budget crisis, those companies were allowed to pick between two tax formulas and choose the one that allows them to pay the least in taxes. They can choose between a double-weighted sales formula that considers the companys sales, property and payroll or they can use the single-sales factor formula based only on sales in California. The administration contends the loophole put California-based businesses at a competitive disadvantage because out-of-state companies with no employees or property in California can cut their tax burden by half if they use the double-weighted sales formula. The governor wants to use the estimated $1 billion from closing that loophole to provide sales tax exemptions for startup manufacturers and existing rms as an incentive to grow. He also proposes expanding employee tax credits

which is charged with the responsibility of such rescues and recoveries locally and cares for more than 7,000 such animals every year.

Were one of a handful humane society in the entire country that cares for sick, injured or orphaned domestic animals and wildlife, Delucchi said. Our mission is to save and rehabilitate animals through humane intervention and educating the public on how animals need our help.
