Deal reached on debt limit

By David Espo
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Ending a perilous stalemate, President Barack Obama and congressional leaders announced historic agreement Sunday night on emergency legislation to avert the nations rstever nancial default. The dramatic resolution lifted a cloud that had threatened the still-

Obama,Congress will avert default

fragile economic recovery at home and it instantly powered a rise in nancial markets overseas. The agreement would slice at least $2.4 trillion from federal spending over a decade, a steep price for many Democrats, too little for many Republicans. The Treasurys authority to borrow would be extended beyond the 2012 elections, a key objective for Obama, though the president had to give up his insistence on raising taxes on wealthy Americans to reduce decits. The deal, with scant time remaining before Tuesdays debt-limit deadline for paying government bills, will allow us to avoid default and end the crisis that Washington imposed on the rest of America, the president said in an announcement at the White House. Default would have had a devas-

tating effect on our economy, he said. House Speaker John Boehner telephoned Obama at mid-evening to say the agreement had been struck, then immediately began pitching the deal to his fractious rank and le. It isnt the greatest deal in the world, but it shows how much

City weighs RDA options

Millbrae to decide if it will disband redevelopment or give up money
By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

California cities with redevelopment agencies are faced with a tough decision: Disband and forfeit property or make large payments to counties and school districts to continue. In June, two state bills, Assembly Bill X1 26 and Assembly Bill X1 27, were approved to help bridge the state budget gap. The legislation disbanded the agencies altogether and set up new governance for communities that wish to continue redevelSCOTT LENHART/DAILY JOURNAL

Support growing About time San Carlos gets capsule in ground 11 years later for blended rail
A stainless steel container containing a time capsule was lowered into a ve-foot hole in front of the San Carlos history museum and covered with a granite slab so it can be easily located after 25 years.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

When it comes to time, better late than never. With time capsules, even more so. In San Carlos Saturday, residents, history buffs and officials made good on a 2000 plan to capture a slice of the City of Good Living for future generations. The stainless steel container was lowered into a ve-foot hole in front of the citys history museum and covered with a granite slab so it can be easily located after a quarter-cen-

tury of rest. But while the time capsule may not have been technically buried in the ground until Saturday, the container had nonetheless been squirreled away, rst in the depths of Councilman Randy Royces garage followed by a few years in the museums crowded back room. It was there where Bob Bledsoe, president of the San Carlos Villagers which act as museum docents, found it. I saw it back there and thought what is that doing here? he said. Then I thought we better do some-

thing with it. Royce, then chair of the citys 75th Anniversary Committee, had bought the capsule with money left after the gala, picnic and celebrations launched to commemorate the citys 1925 incorporation. The rst thought was burying the capsule under a piece of public art or bench but neither came to fruition, Royce said. The plan then was also to open it every 25 years, look at the contents and make additions.

Four shot after George Clinton show in Ohio; one dies
CLEVELAND A man red several shots from a handgun during a large ght near an outdoor concert venue featuring funk music artist George Clinton, killing one person and wounding three others, police said Sunday. The ght erupted before 10 p.m. Saturday at an intersection near Luke East Park, the venue for the eighth annual Unity in the Park George Clinton festival. Police didnt have a description of the shooter, and no arrests had been made by midmorning Sunday, Sgt. Sammy Morris told The Associated Press. It wasnt immediately clear how long after Clinton or the other musicians performed that the shooting erupted or what prompted it. Police didnt know if those involved in the ght were among concertgoers leaving the area. These were younger people, so were not sure, Morris said. George Clinton is an older (artist). Were not going to speculate. A 16-year-old boy with a gunshot wound to the head died of his injuries early Sunday, Morris said. He didnt know the conditions of the other three who were wounded: a 20-year-old woman shot in the neck, and a 14-yearold boy and a 23-year-old man each hospitalized with leg wounds. The Cleveland Plain Dealer reported earlier that the two most seriously wounded were in critical condition, and the other two were stable. The newspaper said thousands of people had gathered for the festival, which featured George Clinton & Parliament Funkadelic as the headline act. because of it. My voice is completely 100 percent gone, he said. After a few more songs, he announced to the audience: Im gonna go back stage for a second, Im gonna vomit, Im gonna drink a beer and Im gonna come back out and play three more songs. He never did come back out, leaving the rest of the band to announce the abrupt end of the show to a booing audience. The other members, including guitarist Matthew Followill and bassist Jared Followill, were apologetic and later took to Twitter to let out their frustrations. Not so good morning 4 me today, Nathan Followill tweeted. Ashamed & embarrassed by last nights asco. Cant apologize enough, utterly gutted. A million Im sorrys. Jared Followill tweeted: Dallas, I cannot begin to tell you how sorry I am. There are internal sicknesses & problems that have needed to be addressed. No words. He added: I love our fans so much. I know you guys arent stupid. There are problems in our band bigger than not drinking enough Gatorade. However, the statement released by the band did not address other troubles, and it said Caleb suffered from heat exhaustion and dehydration ... causing his vocal chords to seize. The Nashville-based band also canceled Saturdays show in Houston. That show was rescheduled for Sept. 22.

Kings of Leon vow to redo too hot Dallas show

NEW YORK The Kings of Leon are promising a redo for their Dallas fans after canceling a show because their lead singer complained it was too hot to perform, leading other members to profusely apologize to the audience.

The Kings of Leon apologize to their fans for the inconvenience this may have caused and look forward to seeing their fans again in September, read a statement sent by their publicist on Sunday. On Friday, lead singer Caleb Followill repeatedly complained that it was too hot and that his voice was suffering

liver Winchester made his mark in America by producing The gun that won the West. Oliver Winchester had formed the New Haven Arms Company in April 1857 out of a bankrupt arms company of which he was part owner. His new company produced the most advanced and soon-to-be-famous Henry rie that was used by units of the Union Army. After the Civil War, the New Haven Arms Company was renamed the Winchester Repeating Arms Company. Modications of the Henry rie were made and, in 1866, the rst Winchester rie was produced. The steel frame was produced and there was an improved magazine and wooden forearm with rim ring cartridges. The improved center ring cartridges, steel frame and 20-inch barrel of a carbine (Model 1873) began being produced in 1873 and became very successful with a production of 720,000 ries. It gained so much popularity that it became called The gun that won the West. Oliver Winchesters only son, William Wirt Winchester, assisted his father at the business of rie making. He married Sarah Lockwood Pardee and, in 1866, a daughter, Annie Pardee Winchester was born. Possibly due to her short stature, Sarah was rarely photographed.

party lines that played out over six months and several rounds of negotiating, interspersed by periods of intense partisanship. Sometimes it seems our two sides disagree on almost everything, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said in oor remarks. But in the end, reasonable people were able to agree on this: The United States could not take the chance of defaulting on our debt, risking a United States nancial collapse and a world-wide depression. Vice President Joe Biden, who played an important part in this weekends negotiations, agreed. He tweeted: Compromise makes a comeback. Not everyone felt that way. Someone has to say no. I will, said Rep. Michele Bachmann, RMinn., a contender for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination. Across the weeks, Boehner emerged as Obamas principal Republican antagonist in a new contentious era of divided government, yet struggled to corral his own rank and le at times. At the end, though, McConnell and Biden, who looked on as Obama announced the deal, provided a negotiating channel to get the deal completed, including a last-minute standoff over the impact of spending cuts on the Pentagon budget. The plan calls for spending cuts and increased borrowing authority for the Treasury in two stages. In the rst, passage of the legislation would trigger $1.2 trillion in spending cuts over a decade as well as a $900 billion increase in the governments borrowing authority. The spending cuts would come from hundreds of federal programs across the face of government accounts that Obama said would be left with the lowest levels of spending as a percentage of the overall economy in more than a half century. The increased borrowing authority includes $400 billion that would take effect immediately, and $500 billion that would be permitted after Congress had a chance to block it. In the second stage, a newly creat-

The cuts could come from benet programs such as Medicare, Social Security of Medicaid as well as from an overhaul of the tax code. The committee proposals could trigger a debt limit increase of as much as $1.5 trillion, if approved by Congress. But if they do not materialize, automatic spending cuts would be applied across government to trim spending by $1.2 trillion. Social Security, Medicaid and food stamps would be exempt from the automatic cuts, but payments to doctors, nursing homes and other Medicare providers could be trimmed, as could subsidies to insurance companies that offer an alternative to government-run Medicare. The deal marked a classic compromise, a triumph of divided government that would let both Obama and Republicans claim they had achieved their objectives.

Investing in single mothers

By Yvette Borja
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT

As a former nurse, Susan Kokores has long had the desire to help those living in her community. Kokores didnt expect to be part of profound change. As one of the co-founders of the Womens Achievement Network and Development Alliance, she is part of a group positively impacting the lives of single mothers in San Mateo County. WANDA is a nonprot organization dedicated to ensuring the nancial success of struggling mothers in San Mateo County. The educational program that WANDA provides has three focuses: Improving the mothers understanding of nancial concepts, developing condence in the workplace and building healthy home lives. Founded in 2008, WANDA is now preparing for the commencement ceremony for the rst graduating class of 14 mothers, who have completed the threeyear long program. Kokores first became acquainted with micronance and asset building, the concepts on which WANDA is based, while working for United Way, an organization dedicated to eradicating poverty. In the early 2000s, United Way implemented a program to test a theory that if the working class were given incentives to save through programs that matched their savings funds, they would be able to improve their nancial situation dramatically. The program proved to exceed Kokores expectations. Inspired, she decided to imple-

A weekly look at the people who shape our community ment the idea elsewhere. While fundraising was never a top priority on Kokores agenda, she became acquainted with fundraising strategies while helping to raise money for her childrens schools. Doing so would prove to be a tting transition for her current project as one of the co-founders of WANDA, along with Dianne Giancarlo and Luba Kipnis. Currently, the women are working to expand both the organizations donor circle and its outreach efforts. We want to replicate our success not only in other local communities but nationally as well, said Kipnis. The mothers in the program are required to save a certain dollar amount each month, which is then matched 2:1 by WANDA. The savings the women acquire over the programs three-year duration can later be used for college funds, retirement savings, business startup funds or the purchase of a new home. By acquiring assets such as these, the mothers are ensured future nancial stability. It seems small, but really, financial stability is what makes progress possible,

Susan Kokores co-founded the Womens Achievement Network and Development Alliance.
Kokores said. The rst graduating class has seen various successes, not only with an increase in the mothers saving funds, but also through an overall improvement in their condence. Its been the soft benets like the camaraderie and bonding between the women thats really made the difference in their lives, said Giancarlo. Aside from the educational component, the mothers of WANDA are also given the opportunity to become members of the Third Door, an upscale gym and social caf in Palo Alto run by Giancarlo. The Third Door donates all of its prots and 5 percent of its membership fees to WANDA. Made available to both WANDA mothers and donors alike, the Third Door has become something of a headquarters for the organization. The Third Door really extends the WANDA network even more. Its a real community feel, Giancarlo said. With WANDAs rst milestone, the graduation of the pilot group of mothers, completed, all three co-founders are optimistic about the organizations future. WANDAs next step is expansion. Expansion has already begun with the current group of 25 mothers, which is almost double the size of the original class. I just want the word to spread to other communities. Really, this is how to better where you live. You help women, you help your society, Kokores said.

Archivist seeks one of every book written

By Marcus Wohlsen
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

RICHMOND Tucked away in a small warehouse on a dead-end street, an Internet pioneer is building a bunker to protect an endangered species: the printed word. Brewster Kahle, 50, founded the nonprot Internet Archive in 1996 to save a copy of every Web page ever posted. Now the MIT-trained computer scientist and entrepreneur is expanding his effort to safeguard and share knowledge by trying to preserve a physical copy of every book ever published. There is always going to be a

role for books, said Kahle as he perched on the edge of a shipping container soon to be tricked out as a climatecontrolled storage unit. Each container can hold about 40,000 volumes, the size of a branch library. We want to see books live forever. So far, Kahle has gathered about 500,000 books. He thinks the ware-

house itself is large enough to hold about 1 million titles, each one given a barcode that identies the cardboard box, pallet and shipping container in which it resides. Thats far fewer than the roughly 130 million different books Google engineers involved in that companys book scanning project estimate to exist worldwide. But Kahle says the ease with which theyve acquired the rst half-million donated texts makes him optimistic about reaching what he sees as a realistic goal of 10 million, the equivalent of a major university library. The idea is to be able to collect one copy of every book ever pub-

lished. Were not going to get there, but thats our goal, he said. Recently, workers in offices above the warehouse floor unpacked boxes of books and entered information on each title into a database. The books ranged from Moby Dick and The Hunchback of Notre-Dame to The Complete Basic Book of Home Decorating and Costa Rica for Dummies. At this early stage in the book collection process, specic titles arent being sought out so much as large collections. Duplicate copies of books already in the archive are redonated elsewhere. If someone does

need to see an actual physical copy of a book, Kahle said it should take no more than an hour to fetch it from its dark, dry home. The dedicated idea is to have the physical safety for these physical materials for the long haul and then have the digital versions accessible to the world, Kahle said. Along with keeping books cool and dry, which Kahle plans to accomplish using the modied shipping cointainers, book preservation experts say hell have to contend with vermin and about a centurys worth of books printed on wood pulp paper that decays over time because of its own acidity.

Work on stretch of San Bruno pipeline to resume
Pacic Gas & Electric Co. crews were expected to resume work this week in digging up an abandoned segment of natural gas pipeline that was once part of the line that exploded in San Bruno last year. Crews suspended work on the pipeline in San Bruno on Saturday because some nearby residents said they smelled gas, PG&E spokesman Andrew Souvall said Sunday. The smell did not come from gas in the pipeline, but from a small amount of odorant according to Souvall.

State hospital workers at risk of violence

LOS ANGELES Californias hospital workers, especially those in emergency rooms and psychiatric wards, are at risk of violence on a daily basis, according to a newspaper review. Some hospital caregivers say they are bitten, hit and kicked so often they consider it a regular part of the job, the Los Angeles Times reported Sunday. More than one in 10 emergency room nurses surveyed last year said they had been attacked in the previous week, according the Emergency Nurses Assn. A 2007 study by the University of

California, San Francisco, found nearly 40 percent of employees in state emergency rooms said they had been assaulted on the job in the previous year. Most attacks dont cause serious injury, but hundreds have resulted in state workers compensation claims in recent years, the newspaper found. Many industry observers say they believe violence by patients and visitors is on the rise but they cant be sure because theres no hard data over time. The issue has recently gained attention as hospital employee unions have begun pushing for broader protections and 1929, a re destroyed much of the ark.

We should not have to wait until a nurse, doctor or EMT or patient is seriously injured or killed before something is done, emergency room nurse Lorraine Sandoval recalled telling her bosses after a patient brandishing scissors chased two of her colleagues.

Heat wave threatens elderly

By Sean Murphy
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MULHALL, Okla. The air is cool inside Ray Knights makeshift coffee shop on the main strip in this tiny northern Oklahoma farming community, but there arent many customers. With temperatures topping 100 degrees, the elderly farmers and retirees who Knight says like to gather and swap lies are nowhere to be seen. Theyre also probably not at their doctors appointments, shopping at the store or at their club meetings. Many are afraid to go outside. The heat wave scorching the Great Plains has turned many rural communities into virtual ghost towns for the last month, and also heightened a

sense of isolation among the elderly residents who make up much of their population these days. The relentless stretch of 100-degree days, which began unusually early this year and could run for weeks longer, is making their way of life difcult and even dangerous, thwarting their routines for getting the supplies and health care they need. I cant hardly do nothing when its this hot, said Bryce Butler, an

86-year-old World War II veteran who stays in his house every day in this town of 200 people. He usually drives to the county seat in Guthrie, about 15 miles away, for errands but now cant go out after noon. Im afraid if I had car trouble, Id have a heat stroke, said Mary Hasley, 79, who lives in nearby Cashion. She has cancelled her doctors appointments. Its just too dangerous. Its been over 100 for more than 30 days in a row in many parts of Oklahoma. In the town of Altus, the average high in June when the weather is normally mild was 105. In the many dozens of rural communities like Mulhall, where there are no longer any stores or other services, the elderly must drive

other places for almost everything, and that has become daunting this summer. We go into plenty of areas where theres not even a service station, no drug store, no grocery stores, said Marlene Snow, who delivers meals to elderly residents as the project director of the Logan County Areawide Aging Agency. Most of them dont want to go out. They dont have the energy. In remote towns, the elderly residents try to look out for each other. But it isnt easy when those who live out in the country are afraid to drive to town. Many live alone. James Tucker, pastor of Mulhalls First Baptist Church, says hes trying to keep track of whos coming to services and whos not. Being a

small community, you know who needs what and everybody tries to check on each other, he said. But Jo Swinney, an outreach specialist for the Logan County group, worries some elderly folks could easily slip through the cracks. Im sure there are, Swinney said. Its hard to make contact with people in these rural areas if they dont seek help from someone. The oppressive heat already has been blamed on nine deaths in Oklahoma, including a man in Oklahoma City who was discovered inside his home with no electricity or running water; its suspected as the cause of seven others, said Cherokee Ballard, a spokeswoman for the state medical examiners ofce.

Defense tries to spare the life of Ohio serial killer

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Public transit faces deep cuts

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CLEVELAND Defense attorneys are trying to spare the life of an ex-Marine convicted of killing 11 women by painting him as someone who suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder and other mental illnesses. The sentencing phase of trial begins on Monday for Anthony Sowell, a sex offender who was found guilty July 22 of murdering the women and abusing their corpses, which were hidden in his home and buried in his backyard. The jury, which sat through weeks of disturbing and emotional testimony, saw photographs of the victims blackened, skeletal corpses lying on autopsy tables and listened to police describe how their bodies had been left to rot in a home that smelled so bad neighbors complained believing the source of the stench was rotting meat from a nearby sausage shop. Now the defense wants to convince jurors that Sowell, who exhibited little

emotion during the trial, was mentally ill and doesnt deserve to die. If the jurors dont decide on the death penalty, Sowell faces life in prison without the possibility of parole. Psychologist and retired police captain Mary Myers, who teaches a University of Akron course on proling serial killers, said she doesnt see how the jurors will buy that he truly has an impulse control problem that allows him to snap. I think they are going to see that he knew exactly what he was doing, just like he sat there in that courtroom and didnt show any emotion whatsoever, she said. Sowell, 51, had pleaded not guilty to killing the women, many of whom had been missing for weeks or months before their remains were found in plastic sheets and garbage bags dumped in various parts of the house and yard. The women began disappearing in 2007, and prosecutors say Sowell lured them to his Cleveland home with the promise of alcohol or drugs.

BRISTOL, R.I. Nils Berg rides the No. 60 bus to work religiously. In summer, he takes it south from Bristol to Newport; in winter, he rides it north to Providence. Working in the states seasonal hospitality industry, the father of two often doesnt get off work until midnight. But under a plan by Rhode Islands public transit agency to reduce service to help close a multimillion-dollar budget hole, his bus would no longer operate after 10 p.m., including on both weekend days, starting in September. Any

change, he says, would be devastating not just because hed be left stranded, but because businesses could lose some of the late-night clientele they rely on. This is vital for a business owner, Berg said at a recent public hearing in Bristol on the proposed cuts, before dashing off to catch the bus. You cut out a bus schedule, and you are hurting businesses in Newport. The impact of the proposed service cuts by the Rhode Island Public Transit Authority which would affect the vast majority of the states communities and 39 of its 54 xed routes is more than just an incon-

venience. In a state with the thirdhighest unemployment in the nation behind Nevada and California the trims, along with any future ones, could hamstring an already struggling economy. Public transportation actually subsidizes most small businesses, said Charles Odimgbe, RIPTAs chief executive officer, who has called the proposed cuts painful. It is an economic catalyst for any community, he said. The American Public Transportation Association says a $1 billion investment in public transportation means 36,000 created or saved jobs.

Niceness aside,Huntsman finds fault with rivals

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SALT LAKE CITY A diplomat to the core, Jon Huntsman is well known here as a likable guy who prefers compromise to combativeness. Niceness is such a strong part of his persona that the Republican pledged to run a civil campaign for president. He genuinely wants to please people, and he gets along with everyone, says Olene Walker, a

Republican who preceded Huntsman as Utah governor. But now, as Huntsman struggles against better-known opponents, he is both subtly and directly criticizing GOP front-runner Mitt Romney as well as the Democrat who named him U.S. ambassador to China just a few years ago, President Barack Obama. The shift in tone comes as polls show Huntsman in single digits nationally and in key states, and it

follows his decision to change campaign managers. Advisers over the past few weeks have been telling Huntsman that he must engage Romney and Obama to boost his prospects of winning the GOP nomination. While in South Carolina recently, Huntsman jabbed at Romneys record, saying Utah led the way on job creation and urging his audience to compare it to Massachusetts standing: Not rst, but 47th.

Scores die as Syrian forces attack

By Zeina Karam
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BEIRUT Syrian security forces backed by tanks and snipers launched a ferocious assault Sunday on deant cities and towns, killing at least 70 people and possibly many more as the regime raced to crush dissent ahead of Ramadan. Corpses littered the streets after a surge in violence that drew widespread international condemnation. Estimates of the death toll, which were impossible to verify, ranged from around 75 people to nearly 140 on a day when the attacks began before dawn and witnesses said they were too frightened to collect corpses from the streets. The worst carnage was in Hama, the scene of a 1982 massacre by President Bashar Assads late father and predecessor and a city with a

history of deance against 40 years of Assad family rule. Hospitals there were overwhelmed with bloodied casualties, suggesting the death toll could rise sharply, witnesses said. President Barack Obama called the reports horrifying and said Assad is completely incapable and unwilling to respond to the legitimate grievances of the Syrian people. Ramadan, which begins Monday, will present a critical test for the government, which has unleashed deadly repower since March but still has not been able to put down the revolt. Daily demonstrations are expected to surge during the holy month, when crowds gather in mosques each evening after the dawn-to-dusk fast. Though the violence has so far failed to blunt the protests, the

Syrian government appears to be hoping it can frighten people from taking to the streets during Ramadan. The protesters are promising to persevere. Having sealed off the main roads into Hama almost a month ago, army troops in tanks pushed into the city from four sides before daybreak. Residents shouted God is great! and threw rebombs, stones and sticks at the tanks, residents said. By mid-morning, the city looked like a war zone, residents said. The crackle of gunre and thud of tank shells echoed across the city, and clouds of black smoke drifted over rooftops. It looks like Beirut, said Hama resident Saleh Abu Yaman, likening his hometown to the Lebanese capital that still bears the scars of nearly two decades of civil war.

Prosecutor summons Hosni Mubarak to trial

Insanity ruling not likely in Norway
OSLO, Norway Its unlikely that the right-wing extremist who admitted killing dozens in Norway last week will be declared legally insane because he appears to have been in control of his actions, the head of the panel that will review his psychiatric evaluation told the Associated Press. The decision on Anders Behring Breiviks mental state will determine whether he can be held criminally liable and punished with a prison sentence or sent to a psychiatric ward for treatment. The July 22 attacks were so carefully planned and executed that it would be difcult to argue they were the work of a delusional madman, said Dr. Tarjei Rygnestad, who heads the Norwegian Board of Forensic Medicine. In Norway, an insanity defense requires that a defendant be in a state of psychosis while committing the crime with which he or she is charged. That means the defendant has lost contact with reality to the point that hes no longer in control of his own actions. Its not very likely he was psychotic, Rygnestad told the AP. The forensic board must review and approve the examination by two courtappointed psychiatrists before the report goes to the judge hearing the case. The judge will then decide whether Breivik can be held criminally liable.

Verdict for two Americans in Iran within a week

TEHRAN, Iran The lawyer for two Americans jailed in Iran on charges of espionage said Sunday the court will announce its verdict within a week, dashing hopes for their immediate release after a nal hearing in the case. Shane Bauer and Josh Fattal, both 29, have been held in Irans Evin Prison since shortly after their arrest along the border with Iraq exactly two years ago on Sunday. The case has added to tensions between the United States and Iran that were already high over issues like Tehrans disputed nuclear program. The Americans lawyer, Masoud Shaei, had hoped that Sundays nal court session would result in their immediate release because it coincided with the two-year anniversary of their arrest and came near the start this week of the holy Muslim month of Ramadan, when pardons are traditionally handed down.

CAIRO Egypts prosecutor general on Sunday formally summoned Hosni Mubarak to appear at his trial, giving the clearest indication that the ousted president will be brought to the Cairo courtroom this week despite questions about his health. If he does appear at Wednesdays opening session in a makeshift courtroom at the national police academy, Mubarak will face an audience of 600 people, including relatives of some of the 850 protesters killed in the

crackdown on the 18-day uprising that forced him from power in February. Activists believe Mubaraks health is being used as a ruse to postpone the proceedings and they accuse Egypts ruling military council, whose head was Mubaraks longtime defense minister, of dragging its feet on the prosecution of the ex-president and other key members of his regime. Prosecutor General Abdel-Meguid Mahmoud asked the security chief to arrange for Mubaraks appearance in court to face charges he ordered the killing of protesters.

that with no hint of conscience they will destroy others. It will be difficult for her to understand that they somehow missed out on learning empathy and compassion, traits she exhibits already. No more sweet, precious innocence. We cant protect her from all that will damage her belief in the goodness of all things. I must face reality and help her parents guide her into becoming competent, confident, and optimistic strong enough to hold her own and enjoy a fulfilling life in a crazy, impersonal, harsh and violent world. So we delight together; we play and we laugh and we scratch each others backs and we joyfully investigate and create and make cookies. I tell her stories she likes over and over especially the one about Mommy when she was little. And we talk about feelings, about why, and about how the baby is going to get out of Mommys tummy (Ask Mommy). She is going to be a big sister, and as she hugs her dolly and delights in her brand-new cousin, she says she cant wait. And I know I will be telling her the story of the little girl who had a baby brother and who felt unhappy sometimes because Mommy had to spend so much time caring for him but Mommy still loved her first baby just as much over and over again. May 1990. Now shes 5. Im helping her spell a word she wants to write and trying to answer her still compelling questions while I watch little brother at his first attempts with puzzles. I frequently marvel at their innate thrust for doing and learning and their wonderful uninhibited openness. I remind myself how blessed I am to be able to be an important person in these two young lives. And I sigh! How careful we must be to see that the spirit of spontaneity, wonder, curiosity, delight, self-confidence and trust is not crushed! How sensitive we need to be to the delicate blossoming of all young lives so they can flower into whole human beings that add some kind of beauty to this world. If all who are blessed with the responsibility of a childs growth and development would just remember what Jean Jacques Rousseau wrote many years ago: Hold childhood in reverence and do not be in a hurry to judge it for good or ill. Give nature time to work before you take over her tasks, lest you interfere with her method. ... Nature wants children to be children before they are men. If we deliberately depart from this order we shall get premature fruits which are neither ripe nor well flavored and which soon decay. We shall have youthful sages and grown-up children. Childhood has ways of seeing, thinking and feeling peculiar to itself; nothing can be more foolish than to substitute our ways for them.

In touch with childhood

ooking into the eyes of a child, we see a glimpse of tomorrow. When oldest granddaughter was small, I cared for her (and later also her brother) while their mother worked part time. This memoir is dedicated to all little children, especially the many who get short shrift in our culture. May 1988. Three-year-old granddaughter is staring at our cat that has run up to the patio door with a beautiful black and gold bird in her mouth. Why cant birdie fly, Grandma? Why did kitty do that? Why cant the doctor make the birdie fly again? Her questions always intrigue me as I grope for answers that she would understand. I answer her the best I can and then remember how important it is to honestly, but gently, teach her some of the realities of life and death so we have a burial ceremony. When will you take him out, Grandma? A week later. Is the birdie still there? Where did he go? When I die, I dont want to go in the ground and get covered up. (I didnt expect that one). We hug and I try to assure her that with people its done differently. Am I people, Grandma? Are you? Is Kitty? Why does the wolf want to eat the pigs? Why doesnt the Queen like Snow White? Why were Cinderellas sisters mean to her? Why do the Three Stooges always hit each other? Tears come to my eyes as I try to explain to her that some people are not good people that most people are nice, but there are some who are so unhappy that they hurt others. Why arent they happy? Like all children, she will have to learn the harsh facts of life about how she will have to protect herself and be suspicious sometimes and how there are people who are so inhumane

Our swanky hospital I

ts not the Ritz-Carlton but, for a medical facility, its pretty close. The sparking new Peninsula Medical Center in Burlingame is something to behold. I recently visited a friend who spent several days there being treated for a persistent leg infection. She raved about the excellent service instead of the usual complaints you hear from hospital patients. She had a private room with bath (sink, toilet and shower). That seems to be standard. Her room was spacious and could easily accommodate many visitors. The last time I visited someone at the hospital, at Stanford, it was a shared small room and the only place to sit was on the patients bed. While I was visiting, at least two or three nurses made an appearance ( the ratio is five patients per nurse) and a nutritionist. Now the usual complaints about a stay in the hospital concern the dreadful food, usually bad enough to make you sick. Patients often beg their families to bring in a favorite dish so they can survive. Not here. Patients have their choice from a full menu. It was a gourmet selection. My friend, who is an excellent cook, said the salmon cant be beat. And you can choose what time you want breakfast. Not like the old days when a tray was thrown at you at 6:30 a.m. But what really knocked me off the chair was when I was told there was also room service. You want a bite in mid-morning or mid-afternoon, just call room service. Although my friend didnt want to admit it, the highlight of her stay was the handsome nurse, a young man who looks more like a San Mateo firefighter ( he was a paramedic) than hospital staff. She insisted I had to meet Manuel (Manny) Soronsen, the head floor nurse. I quickly saw why the lady patients were in no hurry to go home. Its a complete reversal of the old guy in the hospital ogling the pretty nurse. Manny showed me how new technology has improved patient care. There is a special lift above the hospital bed which moves patients who would ordinarily need several physically fit handlers. The lift has special hooks which attach to the bed sheet. A hammock is formed and the patient is transported either up or down or to the side. A modern-day magic carpet. Of course, Peninsula can be much more attractive than the Ritz-Carlton if Medicare pays the bill (I didnt ask but I wonder how much this luxury costs). My only complaint is that the downstairs lobby walls are floor-to-ceiling glass. As I was charging out of the hospital, I ran smack into the glass and for a moment thought I would have to be admitted as a patient. So visitors beware. Also the walk from the parking lot is long and windy even on a summer day. But for a hospital, its still pretty ritzy. *** Last week, San Mateo residents Ephraim and Jean Engelman were featured on NBC Nightly News. Dr. Engelman made news by still working at 100 years old. He is the director of the Medical Arthritis Center at UCSF medical center. His wife Jean is the sister of Hillsborough resident Ruth Steiner. The Engelmans offspring are also doctors. But one son, age 67, recently retired. Whats the secret of the senior Dr. Engelmans success? Well, he is absolutely brilliant, according to his sister-in-law. He was one of Termans original whiz kids. Engelmans advice to others? Dont worry about exercising. Dont take too much medicine. Avoid doctors if you can. And have a loving wife. Not a bad recipe for a long, productive life. *** Historical corrections: Last weeks column on the Jane Baker Years had a few glitches. Thanks to Karen Herrel for pointing out that Floyd Welch was on the San Mateo City Council in 1973. Also on the council that year with Baker were Jack Murray, John Condon and Hugh Wayne. Welch served until 79 and died in 2007. Jim Chalmers was appointed in 1974 to replace Hugh Wayne. But Wayne returned to the council in 79. John Condon died in 1978 and was replaced by Jose Villalobos.

Editor, In response to John Parrys letter, The truth about Social Security in the July 25 edition of the Daily Journal, virtually every statement was inaccurate or untrue. My guess would be that he copied and pasted this particular canard from an email that has been in circulation since October 2005.

The Cotchett, Pitre & McCarthy, LLP Team, lead by Niki Okcu, is being recognized for providing pro bono representation to an 89-yearold widow, Pauline Reade, who was bilked out of nearly $600,000. Ms. Reade faced foreclosure on the Pacica home she lived in since 1951 after Fetuu Tupoufutuna, a scam contractor, tricked her into signing loan documents in the sum of hundreds of thousands of dollars with various banks and mortgage entities. Although the exact terms of the settlement are condential, it was disclosed that the lien on Ms. Reades property was completely removed and she has no obligation under the loan which exceeded $420,000. Ms. Reade also received additional compensation in the settlement, but the amount could not be disclosed for condentiality reasons.

Investors less on edge

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Investors around the world were less on edge Sunday after President Barack Obama said an agreement had been reached to raise the federal governments borrowing limit and avoid a possible U.S. debt default. Japans benchmark Nikkei index was the rst major stock market to open for trading at 8 p.m. Eastern time on Sunday. After Obamas televised statement, the Nikkei was up 1.7 percent. Theres also evidence that investors believe the deal Obama announced is likely to pass in Congress. After the deal was announced to raise the debt limit and cut at least $1 trillion in spending over the next decade, Dow futures were up 182 points, or 1.5 percent. Future contracts for the broader S&P 500 index rose 1.6 percent. When futures are up during off-hours trading, stocks typically rise when the market opens. If the deal is approved, John Brady, a senior vice president for futures and options at MF Global believes stocks will rally, and stocks will rally big. He said Monday could be an up and down day for markets. Stocks will rise if

the news out of Washington is that the deal is on track and will fall if news leaks that the deal might be in trouble. If the deal fails to pass in Congress, he said: The rally will be torpedoed. Jack Ablin, chief investment ofcer at Harris Private Bank in Chicago, said the agreement could lead to a rally even before a vote in the House or Senate. I think this spells relief on Wall Street, he said shortly after the accord was announced and congressional leaders endorsed it. A deal would remove a major source of something investors hate: Uncertainty. But theres another reason a so-called relief rally might be a big one. Companies have reported strong quarterly earnings in the past few weeks. But traders have been reluctant to buy stocks on the good news fearing the debt wrangling in Washington might set off a nancial crisis. Thomas Tzitzouris, head of xed income research at Strategas Research Partners said Sunday that to avoid a steep decline, the market needs to believe there is progress toward the deal. If not, he said: When (Congress says) there is progress and then there isnt, that really spooks the market. That would be a

double whammy. Thats what happened last week when a series of proposals gave investors hope there would be a deal. But one party shot each one down. Nearly every measure of market condence fell last week as Tuesday approached without a deal. Gold, which tends to rise when investors arent condent about other investments, rose 2 percent last week. A measure of stock market volatility, the VIX, jumped 6 percent. In turn, the yield on the 10-year Treasury note sank to its lowest level of the year on Friday, 2.80 percent. Treasury yields fall when demand for them goes up. And demand tends to rise when investors are worried and want a safe place to put their money. Treasury bonds have long been considered the worlds safest investment and are a top holding of the largest pension funds in the U.S., millions of Americans who own mutual funds and many foreign governments. If the agreement to raise the nations borrowing limit and defuse the building nancial crisis does not pass in both the House of Representatives and the Senate, analysts said Sunday that they expect stock markets across the globe to fall on Monday.

Debt ceiling fix could mean problems for states

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HARTFORD, Conn. The cost of the compromise needed to raise the federal debt ceiling will likely inict more scal pain on states still struggling to recover from the recession and the end of federal stimulus spending. While the details of the spending cuts to states remain unclear, lawmakers from both parties have discussed the need to cut or impose caps on so-called discretionary spending over the next decade. That could mean wide-ranging cuts in federal aid to states, affecting everything from the Head Start school readiness program, Meals on Wheels and worker-training initiatives to funding for transit agencies and education grants that serve dis-

abled children. There also is concern among governors, state lawmakers and state agency heads that Congress will make deep reductions or changes in federal aid for health services for the needy, most notably through Medicaid. That could shift more of the costs onto states that already are having trouble balancing their budgets. We have the potential for disaster should there be a major realignment in federal funding that results in a cost shift to states, said Nevada state Sen. Sheila Leslie, a Democrat from Reno who recently discussed the issue with Obama administration ofcials in Washington. In short, we are teetering on the edge right now, and a cost shift could send us over the cliff.

States already have closed nearly $480 billion in budget gaps since the beginning of the recession, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. In Connecticut, for example, ofcials have struggled to cover a $3.3 billion decit, accounting for more than 16 percent of the states main budget account. About 19 percent of the states nontransportation revenue comes from the federal government. The timing is lousy in every respect, said Benjamin Barnes, secretary of the Connecticut Ofce of Policy and Management. It will certainly have a recessionary impact on the overall national economy, and thats the last thing we want right now.

Music service Spotify in patent infringement suit

By Rachel Metz
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Digital music service Spotify, which recently arrived in the U.S., has been sued by music and video streaming software maker PacketVideo for allegedly violating a patent it holds for digital music distribution. In court documents led this week in U.S. District Court in the Southern District of California, PacketVideo said it believes Spotifys free and paid music-streaming service violates its patent for a device for the distribution of music in digital form. The patent covers methods for streaming copyright-protected music from a central device over data networks. Spotify offers free and paid digital music services in the U.K. and several European countries, and it launched stateside in July. It gives users free online access to more than 15 million songs. While that service is supported by audio and banner ads, Spotify tries to get users to trade up to paid alternatives a $5-permonth computer-only version that is free of ads, or a $10-permonth version that can be used on mobile devices including iPhones and Android-powered devices. The Swedish company, which has over 10 million registered users and 1.6 million paying customers outside the U.S., is the latest of several to offer subscription music plans with the cooperation of the major music labels. San Diego-based PacketVideo said that since Spotify has not licensed its patent, PacketVideo is suffering substantial damages that are not less than a reasonable royalty. The company is seeking an injunction to stop Spotifys alleged infringement, as well as unspecied damages and attorneys fees and related costs. A Spotify spokeswoman said the companys success over the past three years is in large part due to our own, highly innovative, proprietary hybrid technology that incorporates peer-to-peer technology.

Dinner for acht

Families host German soccer team
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

It's enchiladas night at Karin Cunningham's house in San Bruno and watching her work with a grin from ear-to-ear, you get the sense that tonight's dinner is getting a little extra TLC. For about a week now, Cummingham and her family has hosted some special company a trio of soccer players who call Germany home and were on the nal leg of their California tour as part of a German Soccer exchange program sponsored by the San Bruno AYSO. It's a program now in its 28th year of existence. Every night, it was an opportunity for Cummingham to expose the boys to the American culture by doing something she loves to cook. Man, Karsten, Jannes and Jannick were in for a treat this night. First, the tortilla goes into a lightly-oiled frying pan, then it's dipped and covered in a beautiful red sauce, which had been heating up in the adjacent burner, before being laid flat on a large baking sheet. Cunningham then reaches with her tongs for a nice helping of pulled chicken that she lays on top of the tortilla. She closes and folds the tortilla very gently. She repeats the process a couple dozen times and lls the pan before

sprinkling some cheese on top and placing her creation into the preheated oven - tonight's enchiladas will be accompanied by Mexican rice and some green salad that is prepared while the main course is nishing up. After a table for eight is set some fteen minutes later (with a major assist going to her son, David Ochoa), Cunningham walks over to a door near the back of her home and says, Who's ready for dinner? Seconds after her call, Karsten, Jannes and Jannick emerge from their room ready to eat after a long day of taking in the sights and sounds of the Bay Area. The young men belong to a 19under cultural exchange soccer team from Germany that spent time in California for three weeks. After spending some time in Southern California, the team made a stop in Yosemite - San Bruno and the Bay Area served as the grand nale. During the day, the teammates, which were split amongst seven hosts families in San Bruno, visited theme parks, went on sailing trips and played some soccer of course. Come the evening, they were picked up by their host family and served dinner while taking in the American home culture. This was Cunningham's rst time serving as a

CINCINNATI Johnny Cueto kept his promise to Dusty Baker. Baker asked Cueto to aid his tired bullpen by throwing a complete game. Cueto agreed to do it. Dusty asked me for a complete game this morning. I said, I will, Cueto said. Cueto pitched a three-hitter, Joey Votto added a three-run homer and tied his career high with ve RBIs and the Cincinnati Reds completed a three-game sweep of the San Francisco Giants with a 9-0 win on Sunday. Todd Frazier hit his rst career home run and Drew Stubbs had a career-high four hits as the Reds rebounded from being swept by the New York Mets in four games to post three consecutive wins for the rst time since sweeping the Los Angeles Dodgers June 13-15.

Cueto (7-4) missed the first month of the season with irritation in his upper right arm and needed 7 1-3 innings to qualify for the National League ERA lead. He went into the game with a 1.88 ERA and lowered it to 1.72 with his rst shutout since beating Pittsburgh 9-0 with a one-hitter on May 11, 2010. Cuetos complete game was his third of the season, but he lost the other two. Cueto had one walk with six strikeouts while allowing just one baserunner past rst base. I have been working on my mechanics, said Cueto, who has added an exaggerated body turn to his delivery. I wasnt turning as much today. The three-run lead helped too. The New York Mets and extrainnings games took a toll on the Reds bullpen. We were swept by the Mets and came back to sweep the Giants,

Baker said. Johnny gave us what we needed. He was masterful. He works hard. He competes. You see him out running line to line. He didnt get any hits, but works on his hitting and bunting. He is trying to be a better base runner. San Francisco left-hander Barry Zito lost his third straight after a stretch in which he won three in a row as the Giants were swept for the fth time this season and rst since losing three straight at Oakland June 17-19. For the second consecutive game, the Reds grabbed a rst-inning lead. Stubbs, Edgar Renteria and Votto all singled to produce one run. After Zitos wild pitch, Brandon Phillips hit a sacrice y, and Jay Bruce singled up the middle for a 3-0 lead. Baker gave Votto a day off Monday and the reigning MVP

Serena Williams captures 1st title in comeback

By Antonio Gonzalez
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

STANFORD Serena Williams smashed one nal serve, dropped her racket, clenched her hands together and raised her arms in triumph. At long last, a champion again. After blood clots in her lugs and two foot operations threatened her career for nearly a year, Williams captured her rst tournament title since returning with a 7-5, 6-1 win over Marion Bartoli in the Bank of the West Classic nal Sunday. Coming back and hearing the claps when I walk out there are moments that I truly missed,

Williams said. Its so awesome to be back and to be a part of those moments. Not everyone can be a sports, I dont know if star sounds full of myself, but Ive worked hard for that title. So, yes, I say it and I take pride in it. The 13-time major champion overcame two breaks in the rst set to rally for a dominating nish. She went ahead 5-0 in the second and left no doubt. The victory was even sweeter because the ninth-ranked Bartoli beat the former world No. 1 in straight sets in the fourth round at Wimbledon this year. The finals appearance was the first for

Williams since winning at the All England Club in 2010 and her best showing this year. Williams also became the rst American woman to win on home soil since she won the 2008 U.S. Open. While she entered the tournament unseeded and ranked 169th, the victory will vault Williams into the top 80. I hated those triple digits, she said, chuckling. Now Ive got to get to single digits. Shes well on her way after this week. Williams handled the competition with relative ease, including a 6-1,

ence. The experience is good on both sides of the spectrum. While the players get to fulll the dream of coming to America and immersing themselves in the culture, families like the CunninghamOchoas had the pleasure of welcoming new people into their lives. I call them my German boys, said a joking Cunningham, but it really is like having three new sons. Cunningham described the young men as being polite, courteous and shy - she said probably got the quietest boys of the team. Personalities differ of course. Dias' players weren't as quiet. They were talkative, Dias said. One of them knew English better than the other, but overall it was easy to talk to them and have a conversation. So it was great. I'm sad that they're gone. My family's experience with the German boys was awesome, Cunningham said. It made us want to participate in the cultural exchange program even more. It is a great experience knew before the match started it was different than Wimbledon. Sporting a long-sleeve green shirt and black skirt, Williams conservative outt by her sister Venus standards, anyway was matched only by her strategy. She was calm and cool behind Bartolis go-forbroke shots including a second serve topping 100 mph but a harder time with the elements. Williams struggled serving into the sun on a crisp and clear day at Stanford, even hitting a few serves with a shortened toss and awkward delivery. She was broken in the third game of the match and went down 4-2. Williams saved two break points and moved back to 4-4 with a break, pumping her st in celebration. Bartoli broke back and served for the set at 5-4, rst requesting a trainer to deal with the bruise. After a long rally on set point for Williams, somebody in the crowd yelled and eighth after being recalled from Triple-A Louisville on July 22 for the second time this season, hit a 1-1 pitch from Zito 368 feet over the left eld fence for a 4-0 lead with one out in the fourth inning. The Reds made it 5-0 on Bruces sacrice y in the fth. Frazier picked up three baseballs this week from his rst hit, RBI and home run. Ive got them all out of the way. Im good to go, Frazier said. Zito (3-4) allowed eight hits and ve runs with two walks and four strikeouts. He also threw a wild pitch. The Reds broke it open in the seventh for families with kids in that they learn how to be good hosts and entertainers. They also learn up close and personal how people look and sound from different countries. Cunningham and Dias will get the opportunity to feel rst-hand what's it's like for the boys from Germany as part of the AYSO program, a 14-under team from San Bruno will be making a trip to the Germany in 2013. On top of serving up a couple of soccer lessons at the expense of some local teams, the boy from Germany take with them plenty of memories including their introduction to In N' Out Burger which the family joked about while enjoying the rst couple of bites on enchilada night. The only challenge I had is that I felt like I had three beautiful new sons and I miss them so much now, Cunningham said. Then again, it'll be an enchiladas night the Cunningham-Ochoas will never forget. out while Bartoli returned a ball near the baseline. The French woman kept playing before Williams unleashed a forehand winner for the set. Bartoli argued unsuccessfully with the chair umpire to replay the point, and she requested a trainer between sets. In the end, she said, none of it mattered against her opponent. Im sure shes going to tell you that she can play even better, Bartoli said. And Im sure that she will. Such a small victory for Williams might never have meant so much. After winning Wimbledon in July 2010, she was out for nearly a year recovering from various health scares. The worst were two foot operations and blood clots in her lungs that left her depressed and on my deathbed, as she put it, much less wondering if she could ever play again. on Vottos 414-foot, three-run homer to center eld on a full-count pitch from Guillermo Mota. The Reds capped the scoring with Stubbs double and Vottos RBI single in the eighth. The sweep came after veteran Miguel Cairo challenged his teammates to do the little things after the loss to the Mets on Thursday afternoon. The speech left an impression on the rookie Frazier. I look up to the veterans on this team. Like Miguel was saying the other day, well be OK, when we put it all together.

host. It was an opportunity she jumped on as soon as she found out. I got the email on vacation, asking if anyone would be interested in the hosting the team, Cunningham said. I asked my husband right away and he said 'sure.' We love to host and we've done it in the past with family. David plays on the AYSO team that sponsors the exchange program. It was great, said Eric Dias, another host who doubles as an organizer for the program. We enjoyed it very much. The players that we had were the younger ones, they were 17.

U.S.swimmers dominant in pool

By Beth Harris
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SHANGHAI Michael Phelps kept telling everyone he wasnt in shape at the world championships. Winning seven medals, including four golds, didnt change his mind. What Phelps didnt do and Ryan Lochte did was most telling. Lochte beat Phelps in both of their matchups, and he set the rst world record since high-tech bodysuits were banned 19 months ago while winning five golds and a bronze over eight days at the Oriental Sports Center. Chinas Sun Yang broke the second world record of the meet Sunday, taking down Aussie Grant Hacketts 10-year-old mark in the 1,500 freestyle. The Americans ongoing rivalry promises to make things interesting on the road to next years London Olympics. I dont really think Im the top dog, Lochte said. No matter what the outcome of the end-of-the-year championship meet, right afterwards I knock myself down to the bottom of the totem pole. I have a whole year to work hard, train hard to get back up

there to the top. No doubt Phelps will be there waiting for him. This is 2011. Its not 2012, and its not the Olympic Games, Phelps said. Ive been able to gather more motivation here than I already had. Both Phelps and Lochte earned gold medals Sunday, when the United States won two other golds and six medals total on the nal night. The American team claimed 29 swimming medals 16 gold, ve silver and eight bronze to greatly improve upon its performance from two years ago in Rome. There, the United States won 22 medals 10 gold, six silver and six bronze at the fastest meet in history, with 43 world records set during the peak of the suit frenzy. 2012 is something they cant wait to get to, U.S. national team director Frank Busch said. Swimming the butterfly leg, Phelps rallied the Americans from fourth to second before Nathan Adrian held off fast-closing Australian James Magnussen to win the medley relay in 3 minutes, 32.06 seconds. The Americans were third after Nick Thomans opening backstroke leg before dropping to fourth on

Mark Gangloffs breaststroke leg. I actually kind of like going in the water somewhat behind because it gives me a little bit more motivation, Phelps said. That was fun. Australia took the silver in 3:32.26, and Germany got the bronze in 3:32.60. Lochte wasnt included on the U.S. squad for the final relay because hed raced the grueling 400 IM, winning in 4:07.13 a whopping 4.85 seconds ahead of teammate Tyler Clary, who took silver. Yuya Horihata of Japan earned bronze. Im kind of upset because I wanted to go faster, Lochte said. He also won the 200 IM and 200 freestyle beating Phelps in both and the 200 backstroke, along with a gold in the 800 free relay and a bronze in the 400 free relay. Getting ve gold medals is denitely great, but the times that I went, I know I can go a lot faster, Lochte said. Theres a lot of places in my races that I messed up on, but I guess I have a whole other year to make sure I have those perfect swims. Lochtes world record came against Phelps in the 200 IM, an effort he called his best moment of the meet.

Sun Yang breaks oldest world record in swimming

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SHANGHAI The swimming world championships ended with a jolt Sunday when emerging Chinese star Sun Yang broke the oldest world record in the sport Australian great Grant Hacketts 10year-old mark in the 1,500 meters. Sun was more than two seconds off Hacketts pace with four laps to go in the marathon in the pool, but

ignored fatigue and accelerated on the nal two laps to nish in 14 minutes, 34.14 seconds, improving on Hacketts mark of 14:34.56 set at the 2001 worlds. I was not obsessed with the world record before the final, because I wanted to focus on my plan, Sun said. My goal is to win the gold. After the race, Sun was congratulated on weibo Chinas version

of Twitter by Liu Xiang, the 2004 Olympic gold medalist, a former world record holder in the 110meter hurdles and a sports hero in China. I think Liu Xiang created history in 2004. I watched the games on TV and after he won the gold medal, I was very excited. I thought someday, I will be like him, Sun said. The crowd at the Oriental Sports Center provided loud support over

the nal laps, erupting into more joy when the clock stopped four-tenths of a second inside Hacketts mark. Fifth-place finisher Chad La Tourette of the United States said he was just happy to be a part of it. I knew he was going to be close at the 800, La Tourette said. That was a fantastic swim and it really just kind of sets himself apart as a once-in-a-generation type swimmer like Grant was.

It was only the second world record to fall in swimming since high-tech bodysuits were banned 19 months ago and Hacketts record had been the only mark to withstand the record deluge during the polyurethane era of 2008 and 2009. American all-around star Ryan Lochte set the rst world record since the return to textile suits at this meet Tuesday in the 200 individual medley.

Tiger Woods returns to plenty of advice

ike most of you, I get much of my Tiger Woods news online, delivered directly from the great one himself. Its where I learned he was missing the U.S. and British Opens, where I saw pictures of his fancy new practice facility in Florida. Its where I learned he and Elin would be no longer, and where I found out his caddie had been sent packing. Right there on TigerWoods.com, where the latest news is that Woods is excited to be back. Im excited to get back out there, Woods quoted himself as saying. His followers seem just as excited to see him back, with most wishing him good luck in the comments section of the website. Surely Woods will nd some of their words inspirational as he returns this week to try salvaging a season on the brink of slipping away. They want him to win, though theyre worried about his leg and concerned about life without caddie Stevie Williams. They hope Woods has his killer instinct back, but dont

seem totally convinced he does. And, unlike the yes men Woods surrounds himself with, theyre not afraid to offer him advice. Most it has absolutely nothing to do with new m e t h o d s Woods might use to nd the fairway with his driver. Please be nice in your (replies) to news questions, wrote one, who obviously tuned in for the final round of the Masters this year. I know it may be hard, but sometimes you are short and not very nice. That does not do you any good, even if its a dumb question. Thanks for listening. That may give hope to TV golf interviewers everywhere, but the Internet suggestion box doesnt stop

there. Amateur psychologists seem particularly interested in Woods latest comeback, and theyre eager to share their wisdom with him. Remember that friends are not always who they seem to be and you should not allow yourself to be hostage to anyone, wrote one. You are a free man and if you want to change your caddie, then you have a right just like anyone else to do so. Right now, in my humble opinion, your beloved mother is the only one who has your best interest at heart so listen to her and you will stay on the straight and narrow. Someone identifying himself as the Unknown Comic was more Zenlike in offering his take. Son, perform well. Be yourself. Stick to your plan. Just what that plan may be, of course, is anyones guess. There is no blueprint for overcoming a humiliating scandal, finding yet another new swing, and trying to smash a golf ball more than 300 yards on a leg that could break down on any given swing.

But this is Tiger Woods were talking about. Winner of 14 majors. Intimidator of other players. Greatest golfer of his era. His fans want that Tiger back, not the one who quit after just nine holes of The Players Championship the last time he played for real. Now that your physical ability is back, get the attitude back Tiger! Go out there with a chip on your shoulder like you used to have and run away from the pack, wrote one. Smash those clowns! offered another. Unfortunately for Woods, those clowns arent nearly as clownish anymore. Theres a whole new group of players who dont feel the urge to bow down in his presence, as the back nine of the Masters showed. Besides, its hard to intimidate anyone when youre hitting the ball so sideways it ends up on the adjoining hole. Thats one more reason Woods will be missing Williams, the caddie he teamed up with for 13 of his major championship wins. Not only

was Williams a condant to Woods and a leader in the ght to allow caddies to wear shorts, but he was among the best at clearing a path through fans for his man. Unfortunately, Woods hasnt taken to his website to announce his caddie for this weeks Bridgestone Invitational at Firestone, where he has won seven times. Well know when he shows up, though the Golf Channel reported it would be Bryon Bell, a childhood friend who allegedly also once made travel arrangements for at least one of Woods mistresses. Well also know when he shows up how much facial hair hell have, a subject that seems to intrigue his fans just as much as the state of his mind. Shave off all of the face hair! one wrote. The last thing you need is to look like Charles Barkley! I like your beard sexy and macho, wrote another. Keep it that way. Proof, perhaps, that whatever Woods does in his latest comeback, hes not going to please everyone.

Yani Tseng wins Womens British Open for 5th major

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CARNOUSTIE, Scotland (AP) Judging by the record books, Yani Tseng is 10 years ahead of Annika Sorenstam. The 22-year-old Taiwanese won the Womens British Open for the second straight year Sunday, beating Brittany Lang by four strokes and becoming the youngest player male or female to capture a fth major title. Sorenstam was 32 when she won the 2003 LPGA Championship for her fth major. Tiger Woods was 24 when he won his fth at the 2000 PGA Championship. Its so great making history on this golf course, and I feel wonderful right now, said Tseng, who is ranked No. 1 and won the LPGA Championship last month. I hope to keep winning. Next year there are another four majors and I will try

and organize and keep working hard. Tseng became only the third player to win consecutive British titles, joining Sherri Steinhaurer (1998, 1999) and Debbie Massey (1980, 1981). Tseng shot a 3-under 69 to nish at 16-under 272. She trailed thirdround leader Caroline Masson of Germany by two strokes entering the nal round. Masson closed with a 78 and tied for fth. I wish to win more, but I am really happy, Tseng said. I think in my mind I say, wow, ve-times major. I never think about that. It just feels really very special. Lang shot a 67 to nish at 276, one ahead of Swedens Sophie Gustafson (68). South Koreas Amy Yang (67) was fourth. Lang was tied for sixth entering the nal day, eight behind Masson. She picked up one stroke by the turn

but the American bagged four birdies at Nos. 11, 12, 14 and 17. I made some really big par putts early on, and from then on played fairly awless golf, Lang said. Tseng dropped a shot at the rst hole with three putts, missing a 3footer for par. She birdied the third with a pitching wedge to 2 feet and the long sixth with a chip to 5 feet. By the turn, she was in command. She was just short of the green off the tee at the par-4 11th and took two putts for a birdie, then dropped a shot at two straight holes. She hit an 8-iron over the back of the green at 12 and then hit the pin off the tee on the short 13th but her ball stopped at the edge of a bunker. She stood in the sand to play her second shot. Tseng birdied the long 14th and nished with two birdies, holing from 20 feet on the 17th and hitting a majestic 9-iron to 3 feet at the last.

I was a little nervous before the start, but then I hit a good tee shot and I felt good, Tseng said. I feel that, having been in this position in a major a few times before, I am getting more mature and can handle the pressure better. Masson dropped four shots in the rst three holes of her closing nine. She nished at 9 under with local favorite Catriona Matthew, the 2009 champion, who had a double-bogey 6 on the nal hole. Swedens Anna Nordqvist tied for seventh at 280 with South Koreans Sun Young Yoo, Na Yeon Choi and Inbee Pak. American Stacy Lewis had a 68 to rally to a 281. Swedens Maria Hjorth was at 282 after a 68 and Americans Katie Futcher and Cristie Kerr were in a group a stroke further back. Futcher equaled the best round of the week with a 64, including an eagle at the 14th, followed by three birdies.

Crisp,McCarthy lead As to win over Twins

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND Interim manager Bob Melvin has seen his Athletics lineup wake up since the All-Star break, and its a pleasure for him to watch. Coco Crisp keyed Oaklands offense with two hits and three stolen bases, leading Brandon McCarthy and the As past the Minnesota Twins 7-3 on Sunday. Ryan Sweeney drove in two runs and McCarthy struck out a careerhigh nine in six effective innings as the As won their fth in seven games. At least offensively were completely different, Melvin said. We have some good momentum going. The more the momentum builds, the better the at-bats get. Jim Thome had three hits, includ-

ing his 597th home run, for the Twins, who have lost three of four. Joe Mauer added three hits and drove in a run while Danny Valencia had two hits and an RBI. McCarthy (4-5) allowed three runs and eight hits. He did not walk a batter and won his third straight decision following a ve-game losing streak. Craig Breslow, Grant Balfour and Andrew Bailey each pitched a scoreless inning to nish it. To put the team in an early decit and they come right back, its awesome, McCarthy said. It gives you a lot of condence. Were a good baseball team and this is how we should have been playing all year. The As set an Oakland record with their 16th straight game with at least eight hits.

I think it says a lot for this group that the organization took both a short-term and long-term approach, Melvin said of recent trade talks involving many of the position players. There were no wholesale changes. Twins starter Carl Pavano (6-8) lasted four innings, giving up seven runs and nine hits. He is winless in four starts since the All-Star break. Carl just couldnt get them out, Minnesota manager Ron Gardenhire said. They had the one inning where the ball was rolling everywhere and he didnt do very well in the running game. He wasnt paying enough attention to that and they ran all over him. The day began with Oakland players learning that popular reliever Brad Ziegler had been traded to the Arizona Diamondbacks, who

open a series across the bay in San Francisco on Monday night. The As scored six runs on seven consecutive hits in the third to erase a 3-0 decit. Sweeneys two-run double highlighted the outburst. That one inning they were running around a lot, Pavano said. I did a terrible job. I took the air out of the team after they gave me a 3-0 lead. Pavano got Scott Sizemore on a grounder to start the inning before Jemile Weeks doubled to spark the rally. Crisp, Josh Willingham, Conor Jackson and Cliff Pennington, who extended his hitting streak to 15 games, also drove in runs. Even if its just the last two months and we come up short, we still have a lot of energy here, McCarthy said.

Ben Revere tripled on the second pitch of the game and scored when Mauer grounded out. Valencia added an RBI single to give the Twins a 2-0 edge in the rst. It looked like we were a hit away from getting to McCarthy, Gardenhire said. We didnt get the big hit and he got into a nice rhythm and shut us down. McCarthy kept the damage to a minimum despite allowing ve hits in the inning as the Twins left the bases loaded. They hit some good pitches early, Melvin said. I thought he had good stuff the whole game. With two outs in the third, Thome drilled McCarthys pitch to left-center for his 597th career home run. With his 1,652nd RBI, he matched Tony Perez for 27th on the career list.

Small-market teams turn buyers at trade deadline

By Howie Rumberg
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Michael Bourn went from the bottom of the NL Central in Houston to the top of the wildcard standings with Atlanta and he wasnt the only player who suddenly found himself in a pennant race. Ubaldo Jimenez, Erik Bedard, Rafael Furcal and Mike Adams were also on the move at the end of a topsy-turvy weekend, when the surprising Indians, Pirates and Diamondbacks made some of the boldest moves at baseballs trade deadline, shedding those longtime seller tags and shopping for immediate help. All in all, it was a relatively quiet deadline day as the non-waiver cutoff came and went Sunday. The biggest deals came days earlier when All-Star outelders Carlos Beltran and Hunter Pence changed teams. Among the big names staying put after weeks of speculation: Padres closer Heath Bell, Tampa Bay outelder B.J. Upton and Astros lefty Wandy Rodriguez. And standing pat unusually were the New York Yankees, content to try and catch Boston in the AL East with a rotation that has reclamation projects Bartolo Colon and Freddy Garcia at the back end. Im very condent with the position Ive taken, Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said. Its not like Im blowing

smoke, trying to promote our guys. ... No, I believe in our guys. Just 2 1/2 games back of Detroit in the AL Central, the Indians completed their Saturday night deal with Colorado for Jimenez about a half-hour Brad Ziegler before the 4 p.m. EDT deadline. Until then, they were waiting for results of the pitchers physical. This was a rare and unique opportunity, especially in our market, which comes along few and far between, Cleveland general manager Chris Antonetti said. The Indians dont seem concerned about recent reports that Jimenez, who was 19-8 and an All-Star a year ago, has seen his velocity drop and his ERA rise this year. He is 6-9 with a 4.46 ERA in 21 starts. He had a 2.88 ERA in 2010. They paid a hefty price for the right-hander who spent much of April on the DL, giving up minor league pitchers Alex White and Joe Gardner, rst baseman Matt McBride and a player to be named, expected to be lefty Drew Pomeranz. White and Pomeranz were considered the top two pitching prospects in Clevelands organization. It was painful for us, Antonetti said, but

we decided the time was right. Were a better team than we were. Division-rival Detroit made a move, too, getting right-hander Doug Fister from Seattle on Saturday and will add him to the rotation. The Tigers also received reliever David Pauley for two prospects and a player to be named. After a record 18 straight losing seasons, the Pirates are in the thick of it in the NL Central race, and they showed theyre serious in dealing for San Diego outelder Ryan Ludwick a day after acquiring Baltimore rst baseman Derrek Lee. The Diamondbacks bolstered their bullpen, adding Oakland submariner Brad Ziegler as

they chase the World Series champion Giants in the NL West. On Saturday, Arizona obtained Jason Marquis from the Nationals. Were trying to get better and trying to make the bullpen better, Diamondbacks manager Kirk Gibson said. I think youre seeing an effort by the organization to try and let us continue to do what weve done and go beyond what weve done. So that part of it energizes you. In other deals Sunday: The AL East-leading Red Sox picked up Bedard after a deal for Rich Harden fell through late Saturday. Six prospects were involved in a three-team, seven-player trade involving the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Smith hoping to grab spot on 49ers defense

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SANTA CLARA The San Francisco 49ers are unsettled on defense, and rst-round draft pick Aldon Smith is ready to take advantage of the opportunity to make an early impression. The 49ers conducted their rst padded training camp practice Sunday without ve of their regular defensive starters from last season, and Smith is hoping he can have an immediate impact. Im excited and its denitely a chance for me to step up and maybe ll the gap for whoevers not here, the outside linebacker said.
SAT SUN

Linebacker Takeo Spikes left in free agency, and cornerback Nate Clements was released Friday because of his exorbitant contract. Linebacker Manny Lawson, nose tackle Aubrayo Franklin and free safety Dashon Goldson each are testing the open market as unrestricted free agents. The 49ers dont expect to re-sign Franklin or Lawson, but theyre still pursuing Goldson, who said via his Twitter account that San Francisco still is in the running for his services. Smith was drafted No. 7 overall and could replace Lawson in the lineup. He is one of several youngMON TUE WED THU FRI

sters getting an extended look while San Francisco examines its options on defense. Weve got a lot of jobs open, trust me, said Vic Fangio, who took over as San Franciscos defensive coordinator in January after Jim Harbaugh became the teams new head coach. There are a few starting positions here that are solidied and most of the other ones are wide open. As it looks now, ve starters from last years team at this moment are not here and dont look promising for them to be here. So thats a whole new defense right there when you have to replace at least half of them. It might be more.

Smiths position is a key spot in Fangios 3-4 system, which relies heavily on edge linebackers to apply consistent pressure on opposing quarterbacks. That was Smiths specialty at Missouri, where he recorded 17 sacks in 23 games over the past two seasons despite a broken leg that sidelined him for three games as a sophomore last year. Smith rushed the passer from defensive end in college. The 49ers are moving the 21-year-old to edge linebacker in their scheme, and so far it has been a smooth transition. Its been everything I expected and its been good so far, Smith

said. Standing up and playing linebacker is an adjustment, but every day I play Im getting more comfortable with it. Its coming together now and Im getting used to it. The 49ers already are getting used to Smiths tenacity as he roams the eld with an explosive rst step and 84-inch wingspan that helps him keep blockers away from his body. Hes very impressive, inside linebacker Scott McKillop said. I didnt realize how athletic he is. Im eager to see everything he can do. With Lawson out, Smith is working with Parys Haralson, Ahmad Brooks and Thaddeus Gibson in the primary rotation at outside linebacker.

Smurfs tie aliens at box office

By David Germain
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

his weeks tip: throw away your retractable leash. Seriously. Or, to be greener, recycle the plastic parts and keep the string for a DIY project down the road. These leashes have been around 15 years or so and are not among the best inventions. Poop bag holders that clip to leashes, microchips, ea and heartworm meds, collapsible bowls for camping/hiking, Kongs and Chuckits, the tennis ball launchers, all rate much higher. Ill even throw in Neuticles, the testicular prosthetic implants yes, fake family jewels owners can get for neutered dogs. Sorry, retractable leashes dont make the top 10. Not even the top 100. Theyve not improved the quality of life for dogs, but have denitely caused trouble for many dogs and owners. Why? People dont know how to use them! By law, in San Mateo County, owners have to have their dogs on leash when out in public (except in designated dog parks) and they must have control over their dog. This, of course, is impossible when 15-20 feet of leash separate you and your dog. Consider this scenario. Youre out walking your dog and hes out 15 feet ahead of you. He turns a corner and gets chomped by another dog you never saw coming. That dog was also on leash, but a standard 5-foot long one. Whos at fault? The guy whose dog bit yours and caused a hefty vet bill? Or, you for not having control of your dog? If it were up to me, Id do what most judges have done in similar cases: ordered owners to split the bill, giving the far greater percentage to the owner with the retractable leash. When your dog is out on a walk, he can pretty much smell the same stuff, whether hes 5 or 15 feet from your hand. And, if you want to give more exercise, walk longer with a standard leash.

LOS ANGELES Little blue Smurfs and not-so-little green men from space are in a photo nish for the No. 1 spot at the weekend box ofce. Daniel Craig and Harrison Fords sci- Western Cowboys & Aliens and the family adventure The Smurfs both opened with $36.2 million, according to studio estimates Sunday. That leaves Sonys Smurfs and Universals Cowboys & Aliens tied for the top spot. Figuring out the No. 1 movie will have to wait until nal numbers are counted Monday. In all my years, Ive never really seen a race this close, said Paul Dergarabedian, an analyst for box-ofce tracker Hollywood.com. Generally, in the world of movie box ofce, $1 million is a close call, so to have two lms in a dollar-to-dollar tie is somewhat unprecedented. Studios often round off their Sunday numbers, which include Friday and Saturday totals plus an estimate of Sunday business based on how similar movies have done in the past. So Sunday gures typically are rounded off to the nearest $50,000 or $100,000, with more accurate, to-the-dollar numbers generally coming in Mondays nal tally. But Universal released an estimate of $36,206,250, which would have put Cowboys & Aliens a fraction ahead of The Smurfs in Sundays rankings. So Sony, which had reported a rounded-off gure of $36.2 million, matched that $36,206,250 estimate for The Smurfs. Were going with that extra $6,250, because its just too close to call, said Rory Bruer, head of distribution at Sony. It just seems like the most fair thing to do is call it a tie and let Monday sort it out. Studios jockey for the top box-ofce spot to earn No. 1 lm in America bragging rights in advertising for the coming week. Going into the weekend, Cowboys & Aliens seemed to have the edge, with analysts guring it might top $40 million, while The Smurfs might come in around $30 million. But the two movies met in the middle, Cowboys & Aliens doing worse than

The Smurfs made $36.2 million at the box ofce over the weekend.

Top ten movies

1 (tie).Cowboys & Aliens,$36.2 million. 1 (tie).The Smurfs,$36.2 million. 3.Captain America: The First Avenger, $24.9 million ($48.5 million international). 4.Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2,$21.9 million. 5.Crazy,Stupid,Love,$19.3 million. 6.Friends with Benets,$9.3 million. 7.Horrible Bosses,$7.1 million. 8.Transformers:Dark of the Moon,$6 million ($42 million international). 9.Zookeeper,$4.2 million. 10.Cars 2,$2.3 million ($30 million international).

expected and The Smurfs doing better. This is truly a photo nish, said Nikki Rocco, head of distribution for Universal. Nobody can call it. The truth of the matter is, its a tie, and with two totally different kinds of lms. Cowboys & Aliens stars Craig as an amnesiac wanderer who teams with cattle baron Ford to take on hulking aliens that invade a town in the Old West. The Smurfs brings the blue cartoon creatures to the big screen, with a voice and live-action cast that includes Katy Perry, Hank Azaria, George Lopez and Neil Patrick Harris. Because it opened in fewer theaters, The Smurfs did more business on average at cinemas. Playing in 3,395 locations, The Smurfs averaged $10,665 a theater, compared to a $9,655 average in 3,750 cinemas for Cowboys & Aliens. The Smurfs had a ticket-price advantage with 3-D screenings, which cost a few dollars more and accounted for 45 percent of business. But 25 percent of its business came from children under 12, who get in at discount prices, while Cowboys & Aliens drew adult crowds paying full admission. So its tough to determine which movie actually sold more tickets. The weekends other new wide release, the Warner Bros. romantic comedy Crazy, Stupid, Love, opened modestly at No. 5 with $19.3 million. The movie stars Steve Carell as a one-woman man who learns the art of seduction from a playboy (Ryan Gosling) after his marriage falls apart. The previous weekends top movie, Captain America: The First Avenger, slipped to No. 3 with $24.9 million and raised its domestic total to $116.8 million. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 pulled in $21.9 million to become the franchises top-grossing chapter at $318.5 million domestically. That tops the previous high of $317.6 million for the 2001 original, Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone. But factoring in todays higher ticket prices, Deathly Hallows: Part 2 so far has sold fewer tickets than Sorcerers Stone. Also this weekend, the Harry Potter nale became the first of the franchises eight movies to top $1 billion at the box ofce worldwide.

Burial or Cremation: Why does this matter?

By Paul Larson
MILLBRAE Are you ever asked the question: Burial or Cremation? Im sure youve thought about this but have you ever seriously thought about this? It is tough for some of us to give this topic the time of day but for many more of us this is a topic of curiosity, and also a topic we will need to deal with at some point in our lives. Burial or Cremation is always a personal choice but did you know that in the long run there is little difference between the two, also a BIG difference but not in the way you think? In the eyes of the state both Burial and Cremation are considered a form of final disposition. Still, it is not that simple. A basic explanation would be this: Burial is a final location; Cremation is a step to a final location. What does this mean? In scenario number one: following a visitation & funeral service the deceased is taken to a specific cemetery to be placed in either a ground burial location or a mausoleum space BUT in a second scenario: following that same visitation & funeral service the deceased would be taken to a crematory to complete the cremation process. When the cremated remains are ready a choice would be needed by the next of kin on whether the cremated remains are to be buried in a cemetery, scattered at sea, taken home, etc. So, when Cremation is selected, Burial can still be the final disposition following the cremation, among other choices. People dont deal with this topic every day, and I know that it is imagined by some that Cremation means the deceased is taken away and will just disappear. That is never the case, and there is always the necessity to properly give the deceased a final resting place. The state legally requires it, and the funeral home is mandated to complete & file necessary paperwork reflecting it prior to any final disposition. I know all this may seem complicated, but it is our job as Funeral Directors to make it all very simple and guide you every step of the way. It is our duty to support families as they maneuver through a sometimes daunting situation and unfamiliar territory, and to provide various options on what is available. Many prefer to make pre-need arrangements years in advance so choices can be made in a more relaxed atmosphere. Pause and imagine yourself as the next of kin following the death of a loved one and being asked the question Burial or Cremation?. Can you knowledgeably answer that? It may be a good idea to at least give the question some thought now. Ive served a few families in the past who couldnt answer that question and ended up making a quick decision they later regretted. It wont hurt to let this topic cross your mind, or even to discuss this question with your family, loved ones, clergy or those who give you support. Look back at your family traditions and use that as a guide. Its important for those who care to have a way to say farewell, and for many to have a place to go following the funeral as a way to visit and begin the healing process. If you ever wish to discuss cremation, funeral matters or want to make preplanning arrangements please feel free to call me and my staff at the CHAPEL OF THE HIGHLANDS in Millbrae at (650) 588-5116 and we will be happy to guide you in a fair and helpful manner.

on what the box held or when it was entombed. This capsule should have less guesswork. This one is not going to disappear, Bledsoe said. A corporate yard worker with cemetery experience dug ve feet down, allowing the capsule to be covered by a thick granite slab. Bledsoe said a plaque marking the spot is a thought, although so are concerns of vandalism. Instead, the granite itself may be etched. Although the original plan had been to open the capsule in 2025 to mark the citys 100th anniversary, Royce said museum board members believe they will let at least 25 years pass now. But enough about how the capsule came to be. The real question on everybodys mind is whats in it? to continue working, Mortazavi wrote. The state is expected to issue the exact amount of the expected payments by Aug. 1. Until then, Millbrae is estimating being required to make a $1.85 million payment in this scal year and a $435,849 payment in the next. After such payments, the agency would have about $1.3 million remaining, Mortazavi wrote. Millbrae is considering making the payments as it would allow the city to continue working on affordable housing projects and new construction in the area around the train station. Redevelopment agencies were started in 1945 under the California Community Redevelopment Act to give local government the tools to address blight, degraded buildings and lack of housing, according to the California Redevelopment Association. Now known as the Community Redevelopment Law, it was revised in 1993 to restrict the focus of activities to occur in predominately urbanized area on previously or currently developed properties. Redevelopment agencies are funded through tax money but do not levy taxes. When a run-down neighborhood Caltrains goal is to modernize and electrify its system and is hoping to get the rail authority to foot much of the bill. Limiting high-speed rail to the Caltrain corridor could save taxpayers billions in construction costs and greatly limit the need for property takings through eminent domain. Simitian offered up the idea alongside U.S. Rep. Anna Eshoo, D-Palo Alto and Assemblyman Rich Gordon, D-Menlo Park. The three also called for the rail authority to scrap the environmental impact report for the full buildout of the system, which was initially shown to be a four-track system mostly on an aerial viaduct on the Peninsula. The rail authority has since suspended the EIR until Caltrain completes its capacity study, which will determine the maximum number of Caltrain and high-speed rail trains that can share the corridor on any given day. I wrote the bond language and there is nothing that says it all has to be done at once, Galgiani said. A blended system could help ridership build up to then determine any additional infrastructure needs, she said. It is important to determine the needs of the system and the community, Galgiani said. Last week, the Bay Area Council offered support for Simitians blended rail plan and urged the Metropolitan Transportation Commission to take a leadership role in the area when it comes to planning the project. Previously, the council criticized Artwork from elementary and middle-school students depicting their favorite things about San Carlos in 2000 and what they think the city will be like in 25 years. Copies of San Carlos Stories by Linda Garvey in 2000 and San Mateo, USA CA by Donald Ringler in 1975. Items from the 75th anniversary. Realtor listings and statistics. Tidbits from local clubs like Kiwanis, the Civic Garden Club and Friends of the San Carlos Library. Government documents. And anything else? Youll just have to wait to see, joked Royce.

In the meantime, Royce stashed the capsule at his home and a few years after had it sealed before handing it over to the museum. We said you can do whatever you want and bury it wherever you can nd space, Royce said. The nal resting place is now fairly tting the front yard, rather than the back room, of the Museum of San Carlos History at 533 Laurel St. The city had a previous time capsule unearthed from a stucco wall when the museum was rebuilt, said both Royce and Bledsoe, but nobody is really clear

other it makes a large payment but can keep working on redevelopment projects, he said. Millbrae seems to be leaning toward the latter. The City Council will hold a special meeting on the topic today. Under Assembly Bill X1 26, a citys redevelopment agency would cease to exist Oct. 1. The city can continue to make scheduled payments and honor obligations, but that most likely wont include the massive contracts pushed through city councils this spring. In addition, after the dissolution, the agencys assets would be reviewed and possibly sold. Proceeds from any sale would go to the county which would send it to schools and other agencies, Millbrae Community Development Director Farhad Mortazavi wrote in a staff report. Under Assembly Bill X1 27, the redevelopment agency would agree to make large payments to the county and schools but can use the remaining funds

is revamped, the property values increase. The increase in property tax collected, called tax increment, then goes to the respective redevelopment agency. Today, there are 397 active redevelopment agencies in California. Many cities in San Mateo County South San Francisco, San Bruno, San Mateo, Belmont, Foster City, San Carlos and Redwood City have redevelopment agencies. Like Millbrae, many of those districts passed plans this spring in hopes of putting contracts in place that would be honored. Each will soon need to decide which state option they will follow. The decision may be in place for only a short period of time since the League of California Cities plans to le a petition invalidating the legislation disbanding redevelopment agencies. The Millbrae City Council meets 7 p.m. Monday, Aug. 1 at the Chetcuti Room, 450 Poplar Ave., Millbrae.

present a feasible business plan for the project come October or face calls of ditching it outright. Cost estimates have gone from $30 billion to $40 billion and now to more than $60 billion to fund the project, a gure taxpayers simply cannot afford, Hill said. Escalating cost overruns are outrageous. Who is going to pay that when there is no guarantee for a private partnership? This project could double the states debt service, Hill said. If the third business plan in October doesnt pencil out, it is time to pull the plug on the project. The project could add $5 billion a year to the states debt service, he said. In the meantime, Assemblywoman Cathleen Galgiani, D-Livingston, who wrote the language in Proposition 1A, a voter-approved $9 billion bond measure that passed in 2008, told the Daily Journal that a plan offered in May by state Sen. Joe Simitian, D-Palo Alto, and two other high-ranking lawmakers may be an acceptable way to get highspeed trains into San Francisco quicker by limiting the system to Caltrains right-of-way rather than constructing the full buildout of the system on four tracks. Galgiani initially opposed the idea because Simitian said back in May that getting just one high-speed train into San Francisco a day would satisfy the legal requirements of Proposition 1A.

Peninsula ofcials for standing in the way of the project but now says a singular, unied voice will help get highspeed trains into San Francisco quicker, with less opposition. We need to understand what Caltrains capacity is, said Jim Wunderman, president of the Bay Area Council, a business-sponsored, publicpolicy advocacy organization for the nine-county Bay Area. That analysis should help determine what the infrastructure needs are for the corridor to accommodate high-speed rail, Wunderman said. The MTC charged its planning committee last week to develop a work plan for creating a regional body to work with the rail authority on the Peninsula, said MTC chair Adrienne Tissier, also a San Mateo County supervisor. The MTC has been crucial in keeping Caltrain running the last few years by providing one-time funds for the agency, which has a $30 million ongoing structural decit due to reduced contributions from the three member agencies that support it, including SamTrans, San Francisco Muni and the Valley Transportation Authority. A blended or phased approach will be less intrusive and less costly, Tissier said. There is an opportunity to build regional consensus and to do what is best for the most people, Tissier said. It might not be absolutely perfect but it is best to speak with one voice.

On more than one occasion in the year ahead, you could find yourself in the position of being able to bring two dissenting parties together for a productive purpose. Each time you go out of you way to do so, itll benefit you as well.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Before turning down all of your ideas, you should put them to the test. A few of them that youve thought dubious will work out better than you think. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Although you can be a doubter more often than a believer, dont hesitate to

follow the financial projections you and another have diligently researched and now believe can succeed. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- If you hope to successfully sell your ideas, do not circumvent any of the issues. When you have an important point to make, be as direct as circumstances permit. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Have faith in being able to achieve positive fulfillments, and dont let doubt dash your hopes. Certain factors that arent obvious to you or others will be working out to your benefit. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Those who like you want good things to happen for you, so dont be fearful of imposing upon a good friend for a special favor. She or he will be delighted to help out. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Do what you can to

achieve an important objective, because direct and strong action is the only way itll ever be accomplished. Delays will only lessen your chances. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Instead of weaving your way through subordinates who have no power and could actually end up being a hindrance, go straight to the head honcho for what you want. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- If you hold firmly to your beliefs about a commercial arrangement and what you expect from it, things could go rather well. Just remember to be fair, smart and patient. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Although youll do well working on your own, you would do better teaming up with someone who has skills you dont possess. If you can ally with someone to achieve better results, do so.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Because youre some-

one who has had the patience to wait it out, seeds youve sown in the past should be ready for harvest, making for a profitable and productive day for you. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- If you take the time to use your organizational skills, you will be able to control most developments that might arise with great efficacy. The one exception may be your own resources. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- As long as you and your mate dont clash and get in each others way, your collective efforts will greatly please both of you. It pays to be supportive instead of combative. COPYRIGHT 2011 United Feature Syndicate, Inc.
