Council rethinks tax hike


Foster City hotel customers to face less of an increase
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Guests of Foster Citys two hotels may have to pay a little more for overnight stays next year but will likely get a slight break on their hotel bill as the council has dropped a proposed tax hike just enough to get the four votes it needed to get it on the ballot. The Foster City Council will decide Monday whether to put a

measure on the November ballot asking residents to increase the citys hotel tax. The council decided in February to ask residents to consider an increase Rick Wykoff to the citys hotel occupancy tax from a county low of 8 percent to a more standard 10 percent.

Charlie Bronitsky

B u t Councilmen Rick Wykoff and C h a r l i e Bronitsky stood against the proposed hike from the beginning, saying instead the city should tighten its belt in other areas to

Judge:No vote on circumcision ban

Redmond stopped in at Drum World yesterday afternoon to host a free lunchtime drum clinic. Jason Aldean and his band,known for hits like Whyand Big Green Tractor,played at Shoreline Amphitheatre last night.

SAN FRANCISCO A judge said Wednesday she intends to strike a ban on male circumcision from the citys November ballot. Superior Court Judge Loretta Giorgi said in a tentative ruling that the proposed law prohibiting circumcision of male children violates a California law that makes regulating medical procedures a function of the state, not cities. It serves no legitimate purpose to allow a measure whose invalidity can be determined as a matter of law to remain on the ballot, Giorgi wrote. Giorgi ordered San Franciscos elections director to remove the controversial measure from the ballot that would have made the city the rst in the nation to hold a public vote on whether to outlaw the circumcision of minors. The citizens initiative, which made the ballot in May after sup-

porters gathered the required 7,163 signatures, would have made the practice a misdemeanor offense punishable by a ne of up to $1,000 or up to one year in jail. The initiative did not offer exemptions for religious rituals such as the Jewish bris or Muslim khitan. The city attorneys ofce, which had joined several Jewish organizations in challenging the ban in court, said Giorgi plans to hear arguments on the issue Thursday before making her ruling nal. Backers had argued the ban was necessary to prevent a form of genital mutilation from being forced on children. Critics contended the initiative posed a threat to constitutionally protected religious freedoms and cited comic books and trading cards distributed by the measures proponents that carried images of a blonde, blue-eyed superhero and four evil Jewish characters.

Strange but True


New Zealand goldfish survive 134 days without food
WELLINGTON, New Zealand There were no Scooby snacks to eat but at least they had each other for company. Two goldfish, named Shaggy and Daphne after characters from the animated television show Scooby Doo, have become the smallest and hardiest survivors of the devastating February earthquake in Christchurch that killed 181 people. The sh spent four and a half months 134 days trapped in their tank in the citys off-limits downtown without anyone to feed them or even any electricity to power their tank lter before they were discovered this month and rescued. Its certainly an incredible story. I wouldnt have guessed that sh could survive on their own for four months, said Paul Clarkson, curator at the Monterey Bay Aquarium in California. Goldsh are very hardy critters. So how did they do it? Luckily for the sh, they lived in a large 26-gallon (100-liter) tank. They had weed to munch through. And, according to Clarkson, the sh may have gleaned some nutrition from eating algae growing on the tanks rocks and walls. He said naturally growing bacteria may have helped keep the water clean enough to sustain life. Then theres the delicate question of their missing companions. There were six goldsh in the tank when the earthquake struck. By the time the survivors were found, no trace remained of three of the sh. A fourth was found oating in the tank. Goldsh are, after all, omnivores. The sh had been on display in the reception area of Quantum Chartered Accountants in Christchurchs High Street. Company director Vicky Thornley said she was about to step into the elevator when the quake hit and she grabbed onto the wooden tank surround, both to steady herself and stop the tank from falling. I was clinging on for dear life, she said. Some of the water slopped over her. She and her three co-workers made it out of the building as masonry and bricks crashed through a skylight. Thornleys rst thoughts were for the safety of her 5-year-old son, Joshua, who was unharmed. It wasnt until July 6 that authorities nally allowed her back into the ofce, escorting her for an hour to collect belongings. Her ofce was in a particularly hard-hit part of the inner-city. Thornley said she didnt want to look in the direction of the tank because she was sure the sh would be long dead. But then an earthquake-recovery worker shouted to her: Hey, there are sh here, and theyre alive! I was astounded, Thornley said. The sh looked dull in color but otherwise appeared ne, Thornley said. She scooped them out and took them home in a bucket. She gave them to Joshua, who loves goldsh and already had two of his own, Scooby and Fred. It was Joshua who then named the survivors.

Third city signs on to test fire merger


By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Millbrae and San Bruno are the latest cities to sign off on testing a four-city fire merger by using a temporary fire station while consolidating administrative services a one-and-a-half-year plan which requires the approval of one more city, Hillsborough. Officials in Burlingame and Hillsborough which share fire services under Central County Fire along with Millbrae and San Bruno expressed interest in sharing services but wanted to test the

system first. On Tuesday, the Millbrae and San Bruno city councils approved a test of the plan by merging administrative services as soon as October and using a temporary station for one year. Last week, the Burlingame City Council approved the plan which leaves only the Hillsborough City Council to weigh in when it meets Monday, Aug. 8. Conversations with labor groups are also required to move forward. Discussions this spring relied on setting up a temporary station to test the program for about a year. Under the proposed timeline, an

administrative merger would occur Oct. 1 allowing for the sharing of personnel and joint staff meetings. A temporary fire station would open July 1, 2012 and work for a year. Collected data would be presented to the city councils in May 2013 at which point further consolidation would be considered. A full merger could then take place starting in July 2013. Under the proposal, stations on Hillside Drive in Burlingame and Crestview Drive in Millbrae would be closed. A new station would then be placed somewhere within

the three-mile distance between the two stations. Six property options were put forward for the possible location of the temporary station with preference given to a three-acre Skyline site with an estimated $800,000 cost. The costs cover a temporary working station with facilities to house equipment and firefighters. Burlingame and Hillsborough merged fire departments to form Central County Fire in 2004. Talk of expanding the shared services to include Millbrae and San Bruno began in 2007.

Under the consolidation, the four-city department would have a $25.1 million annual budget with Central County Fire cities covering 50 percent, San Bruno contributing 30 percent and Millbrae putting in 20 percent. Projected annual savings for each city ranges from $95,000 to $595,000. For Millbrae and Burlingame, estimated to save the most, closing stations accounts for the majority of the savings.

ly taking the funds in a single day, on July 4, 2010, Kioskli remained at large for 10 months while Daly City authorities issued a warrant and his wife wondered where he went. Kioskli, of San Francisco, worked for Diebold, the company that Samuel Kioskli services the automatic teller machines for Bank of America. On Independence Day a bank holiday he allegedly visited six ATMs in San Francisco and another in Daly City to steal approximately $200,000 by replacing the real cash with photocopies of bills. Each time, surveillance video reportedly caught Kioskli using his work card key to enter the machines. The next day, Kiosklis wife led a missing persons report and the ATM thefts were discovered when customers complained about receiving the counterfeit money during transactions. Daly City police requested an arrest warrant that July and might still be looking for Kioskli if the Arizona ofcer hadnt run his name after the trafc stop. San Francisco has yet to le its charges against Kioskli. Although that county has more charges pending against him, San Mateo County has rst dibs on prosecution because its warrant is the one that caught Kioskli. Kioskli remains in custody in lieu of $25,000 bail. He returns to court Aug. 16 for a pretrial conference.

Teen killed in Sunday shooting identified
The San Mateo County Coroners Ofce has identied a 19-year-old who died in a Sunday night shooting in East Palo Alto as Kevin Guzman. Guzman, who was an East Palo Alto resident, and an 18-year-old man were found shot in a parking lot at 1489 E. Bayshore Road around 10:30 p.m., according to East Palo Alto police. Guzman was pronounced dead at the scene. The 18-year-old was taken to Stanford Hospital and is expected to survive his injuries, police said. Detectives have not determined a motive for the shooting. Witnesses are asked to contact East Palo Alto police by leaving a voicemail message or sending a text message to an anonymous tip line at (650) 409-6792. Those with information about the homicide can also send an anonymous email to epa@tipnow.org.

An ATM maintenance man accused of pocketing approximately $200,000 by lling the machines, including one in Daly City, with photocopied and counterfeit $20 bills will stand trial in September. Samuel Gregory Kioskli, 64, waived his preliminary hearing earlier this month and was ordered straight to trial. On Wednesday, Kioskli pleaded not guilty to charges of burglary, embezzlement, possession of counterfeit bills and forging documents. He was also scheduled for jury trial Sept. 6.

Doctor evaluation delays arson plea


DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT

The home arson suspect who reportedly told authorities he was a longtime undercover agent who trained for years to set a June re will be mentally evaluated before his defense attorney decides what plea is appropriate. Werner Heinz Mulberg, 50, has previously pleaded not guilty but delayed Superior Court arraignment until Aug. 25 so he can be evaluated by a doctor. The request implies Mulberg may enter twin pleas of not guilty and guilty by reason of insanity to three charges of arson and

one count of child endangerment. Prosecutors say Mulberg has several delusional beliefs, such as working 30 years as an undercover government agent, and is known to county health ofcials. On June 1, Mulberg allegedly sprayed a can of deicer on a vest, ignited it with a lighter and climbed out his bedroom window in the 200 block of Westbrook Avenue in Daly City. He shares the home with his wife, who is also his stepsister, their two children and their parents. Mulbergs teen son saw smoke pouring from

his parents bedroom and grabbed a re extinguisher. The re damaged one wall and a ceiling in the bedroom. Mulberg does not appear to have wanted to kill or harm his family and thought his son would extinguish the blaze, District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe has said. The re required a 75-minute full response by the North County Fire Department. Mulberg remains in custody in lieu of $100,000 bail and is barred from contacting his family.

Police investigating case involving seriously injured cyclist


Police found a cyclist seriously injured in Pacica early Tuesday evening. Ofcers and medical personnel found the man around 5:55 p.m. lying on a sidewalk in the area of Oddstad and Terra Nova boulevards, police said. He had facial injuries and was not verbally response, police said. The man was taken to San Francisco General Hospital, where he is listed in critical condition, according to police. Police are investigating whether a vehicle was involved or if the man was injured as a result of his bike experiencing equipment failure. On Friday, Kijana Crossley, a 15-year-old boy from Pacica, was struck by a car while riding his bicycle in the 100 block of Palmetto Avenue between Esplanade Avenue and Westline Drive. He was taken to San Francisco General Hospital with massive head trauma and was declared brain dead the following day.

San Bruno to ban marijuana collectives


DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT

Opening a medical marijuana collective in San Mateo County just got more difcult after the San Bruno City Council directed staff Tuesday to draft a resolution banning such facilities. The City Council approved a moratorium on medical marijuana collectives in 2009 to allow staff a chance to study laws. At that time, the council requested a study session on the topic prior to the moratoriums end, which is Sept.

25. On Tuesday, the City Council directed staff to create an ordinance banning such facilities. Mayor Jim Ruane explained collectives can bring problems the city simply doesnt need. A number of local cities have been considering the issue of medical marijuana collectives. Colma, Half Moon Bay, South San Francisco and Millbrae have banned collectives. Collectives are allowed in San Carlos, San Mateo and the unincorporated parts of San Mateo County. Many cities Brisbane, Daly City and Redwood City have temporary

bans in place. In 1996, California voters passed the Compassionate Use Act permitting the possession and cultivation of marijuana for medical use. On Jan. 1, 2004, Senate Bill 420, the Medical Marijuana Program, specied the extent of the law. Since then, numerous cities have been discussing regulations to ll the gaps left by the legislation. Solutions have come in a variety of forms.

Missile destroyed after anomaly during test
LOS ANGELES Launch controllers destroyed an unarmed Minuteman 3 intercontinental ballistic missile over the Pacific Ocean early Wednesday when a problem was detected minutes after it blasted off for a reliability test, the Air Force said. It was the second Minuteman 3 test problem this summer at Vandenberg Air Force Base, 130 miles northwest of Los Angeles. The latest missile was launched from an underground silo at 3:01 a.m. and was destroyed five minutes later because of unspecied safety concerns. The Air Force has about 450 ICBMs, which are designed to carry a nuclear warhead, on alert in and around Montana, North Dakota and Wyoming. The military regularly tests unarmed missiles to check reliability and accuracy. Air Force controllers Wednesday detected a ight anomaly and terminated the ight for safety reasons, said Col. Matthew Carroll, chief of safety for Vandenbergs 30th Space Wing.

Romney campaigning against Obama


PATASKALA, Ohio Forget his GOP primary opponents. Republican front-runner Mitt Romney is focused on a match-up against President Barack Obama. The president when he was a candidate said that he was going to take China to the mat, the former Massachusetts governor said Wednesday at a manufacturing plant here. Well, Im afraid most of us thought he meant the wrestling mat. But instead he and we have been taken to the door mat. Romneys take on Obamas economic record in a general election battleground shined a light on his strategy as he leads the Republican eld in polls and money ve months before primary voting is to begin: ignore swipes from his GOP rivals, criticize the Democratic president on the economy, and campaign in important presidential swing states seemingly as often as states that vote early in the GOP primary. Its a sharp contrast to Romneys approach four years ago when he ran for the Republican nomination as a virtual unknown and tried to unsuccessfully beat the 2008 leader of the GOP pack John McCain. This year, its Romney who leads the Republican Party that typically nominates the candidate who ran and lost once before. His standing has afforded him the luxury of watching as GOP rivals like Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann and former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty try to emerge as the alter-

Gov. Brown relieved of jury duty


SACRAMENTO Gov. Jerry Brown is free from jury duty. Spokesman Gil Duran says the governor called Alameda County Superior Court for an update Wednesday morning and was told his jury pool was not needed. In 1981, during his second term as governor, Jerry Brown Brown served as foreman of a Sacramento jury that acquitted a man of malicious mischief. Duran says the Democratic governor was working in the San Francisco Bay area Wednesday so he could be close to the courthouse if needed.

native choice of primary voters. Not that Romney will publically acknowledge that hes focused on November 2012 and Obama; doing so would enflame Republicans in Iowa, New Hampshire and other early voting states and create an aura of inevitability that has destroyed other frontrunners before him, like Hillary Rodham Clinton during the Democratic primary in 2008. Perhaps mindful of all that, Romney said Wednesday in a state that isnt slated to hold its GOP primary until May that: Ive got to win the primaries rst. Thats job one. Then comes job two, which is winning the general.

NAACP urges minorities to get to polls in 2012


By Christina Hoag
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES The NAACP plans a big push to increase minority turnout in the 2012 elections, hoping to gain political

influence and turn back what the civil rights group says are efforts in various states to deny minorities the right to vote. To do it, the group is going to reach out to black churches, fraternities and sororities as well as use sophisticated databases, social media and boost training of volunteers to include things like getting a contact for each voter they register. The days of the 45-minute workshop are over, said Roger Vann, chief operating officer of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People at the groups annual convention on Wednesday. Preserving voting rights is a key theme at the convention, which is being held in downtown Los Angeles through Thursday. We must fight against any attempt to segregate, isolate and steal the black vote, said the Rev. William Barber, president of the NAACPs North Carolina conference. Barber noted that after a record 92 percent

black turnout in the 2008 presidential election, in 2010 15 million blacks did not vote, including 3 million who were registered. Panelists at a session on building black political power painted a grim picture of how low income minority voters are being disenfranchised by new laws in many states. Such laws require a state-issued photo ID in order to vote, a current address on IDs, restrictions on restoring voter rights to exfelons, limiting early and Sunday voting and voter registration by third-party groups like the NAACP and League of Women Voters These laws were all passed with the intent of reducing the minority vote, said David Bositis, senior research associate of the Joint Center of Political and Economic Studies in Washington D.C. A voter ID law in Wisconsin will disenfranchise 71 percent of African-American men in Milwaukee, Barber noted.

Hope for debt deal,despite disputes


By David Espo
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Crisis concerns rising, House Republican leaders shrugged off a White House veto threat and an outbreak of tensions within their own party Wednesday as they built support for legislation to stave off the government default threatened for next week. Worried Wall Street sent stocks plunging on fears that political gridlock would prevail. I cant do this job unless youre behind me, House Speaker John Boehner bluntly told his fractious rank and le in the run-up to a scheduled Thursday vote on the bill, which was hastily rewritten to show deeper spending cuts than 24 hours earlier.

With Boehner facing a major test of his leadership, the While House disparaged the measure he was working so hard to pass. Sen. Harry Reid of Nevada called John Boehner it a big wet kiss for the right wing, and all 51 Senate Democrats and two independents pledged to scuttle it if it cleared the House. The White House has threatened a veto, saying the bill does not meet President Barack Obamas demand for an increase in the debt limit large enough to prevent a rerun of the current crisis next year, in the heat of the

2012 election campaign. Instead, Obama supports an alternative drafted by Reid that also cuts spending, yet provides enough additional borrowing authority to tide the government over through next year. For all the bluster, there were hints that a compromise might be near. Magic things can happen here in Congress in a very short period of time under the right circumstances, said Reid, the Senate majority leader. Without legislation in place by Aug. 2, administration ofcials say the Treasury will not be able to pay all the nations bills, possibly triggering a default that could prove catastrophic for an economy still recovering from the worst recession in decades.

Democrats:Obama should invoke 14th Amendment


By Jim Abrams
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON When President Barack Obama complains about House Republicans unwilling to compromise on a deficit reduction package, hes talking about Rep. Jim Jordan, a former wrestling champion from Ohio who is becoming a driving force in the debt debate on Capitol Hill. Jordans district is right next to Speaker John Boehners in the western part of Ohio, but ideologically, he is miles apart from the Republican leader. As Boehner and his lieutenants scrambled Tuesday for votes for the speakers latest debt bill,

J o r d a n announced at a news conference that he opposed the package, and he boldly predicted the speaker didnt have enough Republican Jim Jordan votes to pass it. Tuesday night, GOP leaders postponed a vote planned for Wednesday as they worked to rewrite the package. If you look at this, its about a $7 billion reduction in spending from what were currently at, Jordan said. We advocated something much more than that.

WASHINGTON House Democrats said Wednesday that President Barack Obama should invoke a little-known constitutional provision to prevent the nation from going into default if Congress fails to come up with a plan to raise the debt ceiling. Rep. James Clyburn of South Carolina, a member of the Democratic leadership, said he told fellow Democrats that Obama should both veto any House GOP plan for a short-term extension of the debt ceiling and invoke the 14th amendment, which says that the validity of the nations public debt shall not be questioned.

The White House has rejected resorting to this tactic to keep the nation from defaulting, questioning its legality, but Rep. John Larson of Connecticut, who chairs the Democratic caucus, said were getting down to decision time and we have to have a failsafe mechanism and we believe that failsafe mechanism is the 14th Amendment and the president of the United States. Larson said Clyburns proposal on the 14th Amendment was met with applause by other Democrats at their meeting. White House spokesman Jay Carney, asked about Clyburns proposal, said only Congress has the authority to extend the governments borrowing authority.

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.

Group rallies to save museum


More than 65 people gathered at a Hillsborough home the week of July 29, 2006 to show support for the failing Coyote Point Museum and ask the board of directors to delay a vote on its future. News of the museums pending closure became public earlier in the month after board members told employees in an emotional meeting. The news was coupled with the departure of former interim executive director Judy Lum. The board was expected to vote the following Monday on a plan that would put the museum in the hands of the 11th Hour Project, a Silicon Valley group aimed at nding solutions to global warming. Earlier in the month, the board said it was pursuing a deal with another organization that would remake the museum. The museum was founded in 1951 and moved to its brand-new building at Coyote Point in 1981. Financial records show the museum faced severe money troubles for six years.

A note of thanks
To our friends and supporters in the city of San Mateo: As the commander of A/1-327IN, First Brigade Combat Team, 101st Airborne Division (commonly referred to as ABU Company), I wanted to write a brief letter to thank you for your support during our deployment to Konar Province, Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. I am glad to report that all ABU soldiers are back in the United States and are now on leave, spending some much deserved free time with their friends, families and loved ones. Throughout our 12 months in Afghanistan, the light at the end of the tunnel was always the extended leave period that we would have waiting for us when we returned; now that its here, we can nally sit back and reect on the last year. As we look back, one aspect of the deployment that the men will always remember is the support received from our friends, families and loved ones. At our small Combat Outpost (COP Honaker-Miracle), mail delivery was by far the most anticipated event. This was the time that the guys would get those things that reminded them of home. While the physical contents of the packages were important, the aspect of a mail delivery that was most appreciated was knowing that every piece of mail represented someones support from back home. This support provided us with the knowledge that there were people out there who cared, who wanted us to execute our mission and would be waiting for us when we returned. Of all the supporters of ABU Company, the one that will stick out in the minds of the soldiers more than any other is the city of San Mateo. While it was somewhat expected that

For those whove been living under a rock, even if it is a rock in this fair Peninsula city, stories, theories and innuendo are abounding that the San Francisco Giants catcher and the party girl turned mother turned social pariah both albeit separately might be looking to put down roots in San Carlos. Thats right, San Carlos. Seems Anthony took a private plane through a series of cities, including San Carlos, following her release from jail. The question then became, did she stay or did she go? And, if she stayed, what exactly was drawing her attention aside from perhaps an anonymous wealthy benefactor? Although the news of Anthony, and Posey before her, broke a few weeks ago, chatter and wonder remains whether there is any truth to the rumors. Whether the city of roughly 28,000 is a sleepy bedroom community or charming, village-like atmosphere is debatable in large part based on whether one can afford its connes and if wandering the blocks of boutique shops and wine bars is more attractive that late-night last calls and blaring neon.

involved. The present proposal is doomed, a dead plan walking. The authority cant attract investors without a revenue or ridership guarantee and it cant legally offer such a guarantee. Congress is extremely unlikely to continue providing billions more for the state project. Opposition to proposed routes is already huge in the north end of the Silicon Valley and is rapidly building in the Central Valley. So what does the governor want to do? He can no longer claim he is focused 24-7 on the budget. Does he like the call of some Bay Area lawmakers for a stripped-down version of the project using existing rail lines to save money and minimize community opposition? What does he think about Lockyers suggestion of putting off the project until the states poor nancial standing improves? How does he feel about out-of-the-box ideas entertained by the Schwarzenegger administration to build the project in partnership with the governments of China or South Korea? Brown is Californias elected leader. Its time for him to lead on this critical project.

eople sometimes think that being an athlete in an individual sport golf, tennis, swimming, etc. is easier than being involved in team activities. The belief is an athlete in an individual sport can make or break a career based solely on the amount of effort and practice put into their athletic endeavor. But a deeper look shows an enormous web of support staff behind the scenes. That, more so than talent and hard work, can be the difference between success and failure. B Street Boxing owner and trainer Eddie Croft knows this better than most. A former world champion kickboxer and boxing championship contender, Croft knows how far a good support staff can carry a ghter. I have to understand not everyone has the supporting cast I did, Croft said, adding his parents did everything to make sure all Croft had to do was train. They provided all the support he needed at home, allowing him to focus all his free time on training. Contrast that to Ricardo Pinell, a 25-yearold out of San Francisco who trains with Croft and was ghting in the San Francisco Amateur Championships Tuesday night in the city. Pinell did not grow up with everything handed to him. He worked a full-time job, pays bills. I had no bills to pay, Croft said. As such, Croft goes out of his way to make his sure his ghters have the benet of a built-in cheering section. He understands the members of a tight-knit boxing gym will go out of its way to support one of its own. A few dozen members of the gym came out Tuesday night in support of Pinell, specically, and amateur boxing in general. When Pinell made his way to the ring for the nal of nine bouts on the night, the crowd roared in approval. As he was introduced, the adulation swelled, prompting Pinell to take a couple steps out of his corner with his hands raised, acknowledging the crowd, a small smile creasing his face.

Millions of fans and viewers have seen the latest megaghts featuring the biggest names in the sport of boxing. Lights. Camera. Action. But the glitz and glamour witnessed whether in person or on television is the pinnacle of the sport and is a far cry from the amateur events produced by local promoters. All the bells and whistles surrounding the

event, however, are purely for the fans. For the boxers themselves, whether world champions or amateurs making their debut, the preparation is essentially the same: a long time spent waiting around before getting their shot to climb into the ring. Ricardo Pinell, a San Francisco resident who trains out of San Mateos B Street Boxing, was ghting in the nal bout of the nine-card event at the San Francisco Amateur

SAN FRANCISCO The San Francisco Amateur Boxing Championships provided a little bit of everything for the fans who packed Roccapulco Supper Club in the city Tuesday night. Originally an 11-bout card, two were scratched when two ghters failed to show, but that failed to detract from the other nine ghts, most of which were entertaining.

Beltran agrees,trade to San Francisco finalized


By Joe Kay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CINCINNATI Carlos Beltran accepted a trade to the San Francisco Giants, leaving the New York Mets to join his new team after saying goodbye Wednesday. The commissioners ofce had granted the Mets a 24-hour window to talk to the All-Star outelder about waiving his no-trade clause. Shortly

before an 8-2 win over the Reds on Wednesday night, Beltran arrived in the clubhouse and told his teammates he was on his way to join the World Series champions in Philadelphia. The deal was expected to be announced Thursday Carlos Beltran morning.

He came over and shook everybodys hands and said thank you, Mets outelder Angel Pagan said. We were very happy for him. Hes going to be with a team thats a contender. The Giants will nish a series in Philadelphia on Thursday night, then y to Cincinnati for a three-game series this weekend, leaving Beltran with a back-and-forth trip. Beltran, who can become a free agent in the fall, was well aware all season that he would like-

ly wind up on the trading block this summer. But if he was going to leave the Mets, he wanted to play for a postseason contender. He got his wish the Giants lead the NL West. While we have been engaged in discussions, were not in position to comment at this time, the Mets said in a statement. New Yorks big prize in the trade is pitching prospect Zachary Wheeler, according to a source

familiar with the negotiations who spoke on condition of anonymity because the deal hadnt been announced. Wheeler is 7-5 with a 3.99 ERA in 16 starts for San Franciscos high Class-A afliate in San Jose. The Giants selected him with the No. 6 pick in the 2009 draft. Mets manager Terry Collins was told not to play Beltran at Cincinnati on Wednesday night. The switch-hitting right elder wasnt at Great American Ball Park before batting practice. Collins said Beltran later showed up and said goodbye. It will be the second major trade for the Mets, who dealt closer Francisco Rodriguez to Milwaukee after the All-Star game. Everyone here has anticipated it, whether we like it or not, Collins said. We knew it was going to happen. Weve talked about it for the last 10 days. The Mets have discussed Beltran with several teams, and the Giants certainly could use his bat as they make a run at a repeat. Beltran leads the National League with 30 doubles and is batting .289 with 15 homers and 66 RBIs. San Franciscos offense has been inconsistent and lacking power. The Giants entered Wednesday nights game in Philadelphia batting .241 as a team with only 66 home runs. General manager Brian Sabean recently talked about upgrading the Giants roster, and it appears hes added a talented slugger in the middle of a comeback year. Hes a complete player, San Francisco manager Bruce Bochy said, declining to talk about the trade specically. Carlos has all the tools that you look for in a player. He has great instincts for the game. Plays the game hard, plays the game right. I still remember when Houston got him and the job he did there. Hes a tremendous all-around player. Hes one of the elite players of the game.

Cain allowed an unearned run and four hits before he was yanked when pinch-hitter Ross Gload reached on catchers interference leading off the eighth.

That enthusiasm from Jackson helped Oakland more than double its scoring output from 2009 to last season. The Raiders nished sixth in the league in scoring with 410 points, the sixthmost points in franchise history. That offensive resurgence helped Oakland sweep all six games in the division and end a string of seven straight losing seasons with an 8-8 record. But the Raiders still missed the playoffs and did not bring Tom Cable back, making Jackson the sixth coach in the past nine seasons. I am not interested in being good. I am interested in being great, and the only way I know to do that is challenge people, Jackson said. I get challenged each and every week, well why cant everybody else get challenged each and every day. And thats the name of the game. And thats how were going to go about it. While camp has opened, the Raiders are still putting their roster together. Jackson expected all 50 players under contract to be in Napa before the rst practice.

Angels Santana Raiders open first camp under Jackson tosses no-hitter
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CLEVELAND Ervin Santana pitched the rst solo no-hitter for the Angels in nearly 27 years, getting some long overdue revenge against the Cleveland Indians and leading Los Angeles to a 3-1 win Wednesday. Santana struck out and 10 and allowed only two runners there was an error on the leadoff batter in the rst inning and a walk in the eighth. Just once was Santanas gem in jeopardy and second baseman Howie Kendricks nifty play saved it in the sixth. This was the third no-hitter in the major leagues this season, yet another sign that this, too, is another Year of the Pitcher. Minnesotas Francisco Liriano did it against the Chicago White Sox on May 3 and Detroit ace Justin Verlander beat Toronto on May 7. Plus, this was the rst no-hitter at Progressive Field, a ballpark that opened as Jacobs Field in 1994. And it marked quite a bit of role reversal for Santana. Santana made his big league debut on this very same eld on May 17, 2005, and the Indians gave

him a rude welcome. The rst four batters he faced in the majors teamed up to hit for the cycle Grady Sizemore led off with a triple, Ervin Santana Coco Crisp doubled, Travis Hafner singled and Ben Broussard then homered. Santana hadnt done much better against the Indians since then. The 28-year-old righty came into this outing 0-6 with a 4.98 ERA in 10 career starts versus them. I never get a win against this team, he said. But Santana (6-8) was in complete control while throwing the Angels rst complete-game no-hitter since Mike Witt pitched a perfect game on Sept. 30, 1984, against Texas. Mark Langston (7 innings) and Witt (2 innings) combined to hold Seattle hitless on April 11, 1990. Santana said he began to think a no-hitter was within reach after he got through the eighth.

NAPA Hue Jackson hugged players as they came off the team bus, challenged a few of them even before they hit the practice eld and brought the same enthusiasm as head coach of the Oakland Raiders as he had a year ago as offensive coordinator. More than six months after being hired as Raiders coach, Jackson got the chance to put his imprint on his players as his rst training camp began Wednesday. It was so exciting to see them, I couldnt stop from going around and shaking all their hands when they rst got here because Im so happy to see a player, Jackson said. Im tired of seeing our coaches. Im tired of seeing everybody else. I got to see my players, and now its truly about me giving them my vision and them going out and executing this plan. The rst day of camp featured physicals, meetings and a reunion of sorts as players and coaches got back together for the rst time since last season. The Raiders will begin practice on Thursday, although without any hitting the rst two days under new NFL rules. But the players should expect to hear plenty from Jackson, whose voice provided a soundtrack to practices last summer as he urged on his offense and challenged the defense at every opportunity in his rst training camp with the Raiders.

The Raiders have signed three of their draft picks and Jackson said the team is close to getting the ve other draft picks signed before practice starts Thursday afternoon. Third-round cornerback DeMarcus Van Dyke and fourth-round running back Taiwan Jones signed undisclosed deals. Fifth-round receiver Denarius Moore got a $2.2 million, four-year deal, according to the Allegiant Athletic Agency that represents him. Oakland also signed 14 undrafted free agents, but there are still plenty of training camp roster spots that wont be lled until after free agents can sign starting Friday. You expect a little chaos with such a short time frame to do the free agency and everything like that, linebacker Kamerion Wimbley said. Im just open for whatever and I expect whatever. Wimbley got his status settled before the lockout when he signed an $11.3 million franchise tender. He said his agent has begun discussions with the Raiders about a long-term deal, which would give the team more room under the salary cap this season. Wimbley was one of eight potential free agents the Raiders signed before the lockout, giving them a head start this summer. Oakland has already locked up one of its free agents, agreeing to a $1.25 million, one-year deal with linebacker Jarvis Moss. ESPN reported that Oakland also reached a deal with long snapper Jon Condo.

Midway through the rst round, Terry Fernandez caught Michael Fernandez with a looping right hand that crashed onto his chin. Michael Fernandez lurched forward, landing face down on the canvas.

HARRISON, N.J. Wayne Rooney set up two goals with magnicent passes and Ji-Sung Park danced around a defender for another and Manchester United put on another show during its tour of the United States with a 4-0 victory over the MLS All Stars on Wednesday night. Anderson, Dimitar Berbatov and Danny Welbeck also scored for the reigning English Premier League champions, who have outscored their opponents Wayne Rooney 18-2 in winning the opening four games on their U.S. tour. Sir Alex Fergusons powerhouse will wrap up its preseason tour in Washington on Saturday against FC Barcelona in a rematch of the Champions League nal which the Spanish team won 3-1. Then its back to England for the Community Shield game and then start of another season the following week. The nal score might have been a little misleading because David Beckham and his MLS buddies had a couple of good shots at goal, but make no mistake Manchester United was far superior in the game at Red Bull Arena that drew a sellout crowd of 26,760. Like most midseason classics, this one started with a show. Parachutists oated into the doubledecked arena that is in its second year of operation, reworks lit the sky and a helicopter yover all preceded the start of the game. The MLS even looked good for about 18 minutes with Beckham, who starred for the Reds in his prime, having a great chance in the seventh minute, only to see his 25-yard drive slide wide of the goal. Rooney though gave the Manchester United faithful in the mixed crowd half for Man, half for the MLS squad something to cheer about in the 20th minute on a great tic-tac-toe play. Rooney made a pass to Berbatov at the top of the box, took a return pass and then found Anderson breaking into the area alone for a wide-open shot that easily beat goalkeeper Faryd Mondragon.

Just as a trip to the airport has changed remember the quaint notion of meeting your loved one at the gate? there are some things that no one takes for granted anymore at the 70,000-seat stadiums and 20,000capacity arenas that still are widely regarded as prime targets for terrorist attacks.

ures have increased in ways both visible (more police, security guards) and nearly invisible (closed-circuit cameras, facial-recognition devices). Through all these changes, a couple of key questions have lingered: Is it worth giving up some convenience and freedom of movement in exchange for more security? And, do these measures really make us more secure? In stadiums, just like in the airport, its this whole idea of security theater as opposed to doing things that really make us safe, said Derek Catsam, an associate professor at University of Texas of the Permian Basin, who has

studied the safety issue in stadiums. For instance, theres no legitimate justication for not letting people bring bottles of water into the stadium on a 95degree day in Austin, Texas. But overall, I think were safer because were more vigilant. And I think that sometimes happens independently of the policies in place at each particular stadium. Catsam also points out that the types of security measures most fans see at the game are designed more to fend off small violent acts a person with a gun or knife, for instance than some type of large-scale attack, which is the kind of thing that is a tiny, tiny, tiny slice of our history.

Gardening advice for fresh, well-stained green thumbs
ello, novice, experienced and potential gardeners! I am delighted to introduce this local gardening column. This is a place for home gardeners from South San Francisco to Menlo Park and over on the coast to learn, get encouragement and build community. You will get practical advice and inspiration for creating and sustaining the type of garden that matters most to you, whether that is a garden lush with ornamentals, packed with edibles, or lled with a mix of the two. I want to help you become more condent and knowledgeable about gardening in the delightful but sometimes challenging climate and conditions we face gardening on the Peninsula and along the coast. We all share a Mediterranean climate of dry summers and wet but mild winters, but across the region there are microclimates. That is why growing tomatoes along the coast is a lot more difcult than growing them in Redwood City. Conditions also can vary in a city, and even in our yards. In my San Mateo neighborhood, summertime winds whip in from the coast through the State Route 92 pass, and compel me to put on a jacket. On those days my brugmansia (Angels Trumpet), a owering tropical, probably would appreciate a sweater, too. At the same time, in other San Mateo neighborhoods, the air is calm and the temperature is toasty. And who am I? I am a University of California Cooperation Extension Master Gardener who belongs to the San Mateo and San Francisco Counties Master Gardener program. Master Gardeners are volunteers found nationwide, providing gardening information to home gardeners. In California, the Master Gardeners program is administered by the University of California Cooperative Extension (UCCE). Master Gardeners have completed training from UC, participate in continuing education, and volunteer in the community. We staff a gardening helpline at 650-726-9059 ext. 107, so give us a call. Please also visit our website at http://groups.ucanr.org/sanmateo, to learn more about gardening and what we are up to in the community.

Beautiful option for busy gardeners

Like most gardeners who have been at it for some time, I nd there is usually more work to be done than time to do it. If it is dry, there is watering to do. If it is rainy, weeds grow like lightning. If the wind blows too hard, there is cleanup. You can see how this list could easily keep going. So I look for ways to reduce my workload without sacricing my chosen aesthetic. A case in point is the planters on my patio. A recent visitor remarked that they looked very colorful, but she noticed that they didnt feature a lot of owers. I explained that the reason was time more than anything else. Flowering plants, especially those grown in containers, generally require more attention than non-flowering plants. Annual plants those that will produce flowers within months after being sown will bloom prolically all summer in an attempt to produce seed and thus ensure their future. The rub is that, once many annual plants produce seed, they often stop owering and die. In order to keep them growing and blooming well, you must remove the spent owers from the plant before seed can form and that takes time. Flowers not removed often drop or die on the plant, making an unsightly mess, and that I have enough unsightly messes to deal with as it is! Over the years I have found that choosing plants based on their colorful or interesting foliage makes for containers that are much more attractive and far less work than choosing plants that ower profusely. That doesnt mean I eschew annuals altogether. I just choose the ones I use very carefully. I look for owering plants that give a lot of bang for the buck but dont require all the deadheading. One of my favorites is agapanthus. These South African natives produce large umbels of beautiful funnel-shaped owers atop tall stur-

Agapanthus remains in bloom for weeks at a time,and the reworks-like buds look good long before the owers actually open,thus extending the length of the show.
dy stems. The owers can be found in various shades of blue ranging from deep indigo to sky blue, and also pure white. They enjoy the hot summer sun and are so tough they are often used in median strips and parking lot beds in Southern California. Agapanthus remains in bloom for weeks at a time, and the reworks-like buds look good long before the owers actually open, thus extending the length of the show. I grow several different cultivars, some blooming early others late, ensuring I have pots in bloom all season. Unlike with other annuals, I let seed form on my agapanthus. After the owers are gone, seedpods hang from the plants umbels like dozens of emerald earrings on tiny spikes and extend the interest until the end of the season. In my zone 6 garden, I bring the pots in just before the rst frost and put them in a cold, dark basement where they sit dormant until the following spring. Agapanthus blooms best when potbound, as long as the plants are provided with ample amounts of moisture and adequate fertilizer during the growing season. To enjoy gardening, you must embrace the continual process of change. But if you nd it difcult to stay on top of the change in your garden, youll be pleased to discover that there are lower-maintenance options out there.

Anderson Japanese Gardens aim for tranquility


By Dave Carpenter
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ROCKFORD, Ill. Japanese gardens are about inspiring and soothing the soul. And you dont have to be a gardening expert or Zen Buddhist to appreciate all they have to offer the beauty, the tranquility, even the Zen. Anderson Japanese Gardens, a 12-acre wonderland of landscaping and design, is regarded as one of the top Japanese gardens in North America, along with ones in Portland, Ore., and Delray Beach, Fla. Most every day, diverse groups of visitors can be seen strolling through the site: hospice patients, cancer survivors, people practicing yoga and tai chi, brush painting classes, Red Hat women, grief counselors, church congregations holding services and just plain tourists. Reecting a design that originated in 12th-century Japan, the gardens contain a large pond, a vestory waterfall, a granite pagoda, curving bridges over boulder-strewn streams, and well-manicured plants and trees leaning toward the water. They attract about 40,000 visitors a year in this city 80 miles northwest of Chicago. Its a great space to cast away a lot of the baggage of the modern world and tune back into something more elemental, says curator Tim

Gruner. The gardens were the inspiration of industrialist John Anderson (no relation to the 1980 independent presidential candidate from Rockford with the same name). During a business trip to Oregon in 1977, Anderson visited the Portland Japanese Garden on a cab drivers recommendation, and was so impressed by its calm and serenity that he decided to create his own

version. He invited the gardens highly regarded Japanese landscape architect, Hoichi Kurisu, to Rockford and asked him to design a garden around a swampy pond next to his new hillside house. Construction began the following year, with Kurisu remaining faithful to the style and methods used in Japans Kamakura period, for manmade structures as well as the dozens of natural features. An authentic Japanese guesthouse, tea house and gazebo were built by a traditional craftsman using just les, chisels and hammers. The gardens were opened to the public in 1998 when the Andersons turned them over to a foundation. John Anderson, 69, recently handed off the chief executives duties to his son, David, but remains actively involved. Kurisu, too, still visits periodically to provide guidance. David Anderson, 40, rst got to know the gardens as a pretty cool place to grow up next to, riding his bike, playing hockey and shing there. Now his goals are to add a childrens garden, carry out a shoreline restoration and overcome patrons disappointment at the closure of the popular onsite restaurant, which he says had become a distraction. The gardens are costly to maintain and unprofitable, he says,

Choose bamboo carefully to avoid spreaders


By Dean Fosdick
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Bamboo is becoming popular with landscape designers, and a number of nurseries have begun specializing in the plant.

Gardeners are often bamboozled by bamboo, particularly the running kinds that are notorious spreaders. Most of the clumping varieties can be contained, however, growing quickly into attractive specimen plants and screens. Its important to know the difference before you buy. Bamboo is really nice to look at and it has a pleasant rustling sound in a breeze that reminds me of white noise, said Jeff Schalau, an agricultural and natural resources agent with University of Arizona Cooperative Extension at Prescott. It also is a great barrier plant if you want privacy or want to block something out. There are more than 1,400 different bamboo species, which range from north of the Arctic Circle in Norway to the steamy tropics of Southeast Asia. It is one of the fastest growing plants in nature. In ideal conditions, theres been bamboo recorded to grow 39 inches a day, said Ted Meredith, author of Bamboo for Gardens (Timber Press, 2001). I had a bamboo I measured grow 13 inches in one day. Thats pretty neat. You can almost watch it grow. Many bamboo varieties can be used as container plants, attractive on a sunny patio or porch, said Meredith, who lives in Edmonds, Wash. One of the good things about bamboo is that its a vigorous, happy plant, but a downside is that it gets root-bound more quickly, he said. Its easy, though, to take it out, divide and repot it. Most of the stems are hollow, in proper scale for their space. It also makes your garden more interesting if you can see through to the other side. Prune in a way that creates a sense of mystery a little added texture and depth. LEAN YOUR PLANTS. Lean plants in to a focal point, whether its a waterfall or your front door. Plants leaning in toward the sidewalk make for an inviting, comforting feeling. INCORPORATE WATER FEATURES. The sound of running water creates interest in a garden. It also attracts frogs, dragonies, and birds bathing and preening. USE BIG ROCKS. Go with the biggest rocks you can afford, handle and move. You dont have to have boulders, theyre just really great, says Gruner. You can also use rocks sible and water correctly. Choose plants that are happy in our summer-dry climate. Mulch, mulch, mulch; Back away from the spray. You want a garden humming with life, not sanitized within an inch of its life. Choose low to no chemical use for dealing with pests; Don't fight nature. She will win. Choose plants that are known to do well in our climate, and are likely to do well under the conditions in your particular

making it light and portable in containers. Bamboo also offers utility. Some are very tasty, Meredith said. I know of a farmer in Puyallup (Wash.) who harvests bamboo shoots and sells it to specialty markets around the area. And bamboo serves as good building material for fences and borders. Black bamboo is hard and beautiful, and you can make very colorful yard constructions from it, Meredith said. Bamboos hardiness often causes problems, though. Many varieties can take over a yard if left untended. I never recommend planting bamboo unless youre certain about the varieties, said Morgan Judy, an extension agent at Clemson Universitys Orangeburg, S.C., ofce. Research not only the varieties youre looking to buy but the best places to put them, and then see how they do over a period of time, she said. There are some ornamentals out there that are perfectly good to use, that are not invasive and that look really nice. Eliminating a spreader if it becomes troublesome may take several seasons, Judy said. There is no quick x. Bamboo is a grass. If you can keep it under cultivation or mow it regularly, it will die out that way, she said. Planting it inside a concrete barrier is a practical option, although cutting it down and using an herbicide is probably more practical. Bamboo is becoming popular with landscape designers, and a number of nurseries have begun specializing in the plant, Meredith said. Many of them offer control and maintenance (services) if you need help dealing with it. to change the ow if you have a water feature. THINK CHARACTER AND COLOR. Restrained use of unusual plants and trees, or those of contrasting color, will enhance a garden. One good option is dwarf white pines, which have great character, few disease problems and grow in small spaces. APPLY WHIMSY CAREFULLY. Whimsical features such as wind chimes, stone frogs or humorous sculptures can spice up a garden, but dont overdo it. If the oddities play off nature (no gnomes, please) and are carefully integrated, whimsy can work. VISIT MODEL GARDENS. Take a look at some other gardens that really pop, says Gruner, and adapt the features you think work best. patch of soil and sun; and Think turtle over hare. Choose organic fertilizers over chemical, which means slow and steady growth over fast and hyper. Until next time, happy digging!

watercolor paper over it, and pour on some boiling water. As the water subsides, pour on some more, then remove the paper and cover the at with a clean pane of glass. Once the soil cools, sow the spores. Just dust them over the surface of the soil and replace the glass immediately. Set the at on a north windowsill, or somewhere else with indirect light and even temperatures. If water is needed, set the at in a pan of water to soak up moisture from below. Within one to a few weeks, the surface of the at will be covered with a green lm, then small, heart-shaped structures. These structures are what are going to make egg and sperm cells. When those cells unite, tiny ferns will eventually begin to grow. This could take months.

With spores and time you can have ferns galore


By Lee Reich
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Dont put away your seed ats and potting soil just yet. Its time to go on a spore hunt. Spores are a most useful catch if you want to plant ferns in quantity. But youll have to be patient. Keep your eyes out for pretty ferns, and when you nd some to your liking, start checking the undersides of their leaves. Sometime between now and early fall, those undersides will be punctuated with brown spots containing spores. Watch out, though, because when spores are ripe the cases split open to send their dust-like contents all over the place. When you nd fern leaves with plump, rm spore cases on them, youre in business. Cut off the leaf or part of it and lay it with the spore cases facing down between a fold of paper. Kept in a dry, airy room, the spore cases will release their spores not all over the place this time, but right onto the paper. Tap these spores into an envelope and theyre ready to sow, or can be stored for later sowing. Spores are something like seeds of owering plants, except that seeds have a full complement of chromosomes, the result of the union of egg and sperm cells each having half a complement of chromosomes. Spores each have only half-complements of chromosomes.

GIVE BABY FERNS SOME ELBOW ROOM


As the ferns materialize, they need more room. Carefully lift clumps of baby ferns, along with attached roots and soil, and replant them in new seed ats that have been given the cleaning and boiling water treatments. Leave some headspace in the new ats so that the glass can still cover the plants to maintain high humidity for the couple of weeks that the plants need to re-establish their roots. After a few more weeks of good growth, transplant the babies again, this time to individual pots. With each move, including their eventual move outdoors, let the plants acclimate slowly to new conditions. Growing ferns from spores might seem like a lot of trouble. In fact, it really takes more time than trouble, and the growing plants take up little space. And, as mentioned earlier, you end up with a slew of ferns. Think how pretty all those ferns might look in a bed edged with hosta and dotted with color from columbines, perhaps with a clump of lilies poking through to gracefully show off their pale white or orange trumpets.

PLANTING SPORES IS LIKE PLANTING SEEDS, BUT WITH A WRINKLE


Still, you can sow spores in almost the same way as you do seeds. Start with a seed at and some potting soil. The slow-growing spores are easily invaded by other organisms, so thoroughly clean seed ats and then rinse them with 10 percent bleach solution. Fill the at with potting soil and rm it in place. Sterilize the soil by laying absorbent paper, such as lter paper, blotting paper or

Pesci sues over Gotti biopic role


By Anthony McCartney
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES Joe Pesci claims the makers of a biopic on the Gotti family have made him an offer he can refuse a lesser part in the movie and a $2 million salary cut. The actor sued Fiore Films on Wednesday, seeking the $3 million he said he was promised to play the role of a childhood friend and enforcer of crime boss John Gotti Sr. Pesci claims the company used his name and likeness to promote the movie and attract investors, but now doesnt want to honor its original offer to him. He has been offered a lesser role for a $1 million payday, the lawsuit stated. Fiore CEO Marc Fiore rejected the claims, saying he received correspondence months ago from the actors representatives telling him Pesci was pulling out of the project until the original director, who left the project, was replaced. Before we had a deal, Mr. Pesci walked away, Fiore said. Pescis attorney Brandon Tesser called Fiores statement false, saying no one informed Pesci of a reduced role until recently. The actors lawsuit stated Pesci gained 30 pounds to play the role of a trusted Gotti Sr. adviser, Angelo Ruggiero. Pesci cited his roles in mobster lms such as Casino and his Oscar-winning role in Goodfellas, and his lawsuit said he was fully committed to playing Ruggiero in Gotti: In the Shadow of My Father. The movie focuses on the experiences of John Gotti Jr., who has rejected his mob ties. Pesci had been named as a prominent cast member in the lm alongside John Travolta, who is scheduled to play Gotti

Joe Pesci is suing Fiore Films $3 million he said he was promised to play the role of a childhood friend and enforcer of crime boss John Gotti Sr.
Sr., Al Pacino and Kelly Preston. The actors role was announced at an April press conference. His lawsuit said that helped lend the lm credibility, garnered it publicity and helped attract investors and other actors. Shortly after the announcement, director Nick Cassavetes withdrew from the lm. Fiore said Pescis representatives then told him that the actor didnt want to discuss anything with lmmakers until a new director was chosen. He said that he had tried to work out a deal with Pescis New York attorney and that he and new director Barry Levinson had reached out to the actor recently, but the efforts were rebuffed. Tesser said Fiore was welcome to contact him to try to resolve the matter, but it was clear that there was an agreement for Pesci to star in the Gotti lm. Pescis lawsuit claimed that a written Through the chamber, the two hotels felt they could absorb a 9.5 percent increase and keep their competitive edge, Bronitsky said. While Bronitsky has generally opposed increasing any taxes, he now says that a balance of cuts along with raising taxes is the best way to tackle the decit. Ultimately, the residents will decide, Bronitsky said. Mayor Linda Koelling has done outreach to the citys two hotels, the Crowne Plaza and Courtyard by Marriott, and has determined management there will support the increase. Both understood the dilemma that the city was in and appreciated the fact that this tax has not been raised since it went into effect almost 30 years ago, Koelling said. The 9.5 percent proposed rate will still keep Foster Citys hotel tax the lowest in million require nal approval from the City Council. Safeway will keep the current store open until March 2012 when construction will start. Theres a goal of opening in February 2013, said Susan Houghton, director of public and government affairs for the Safeway, Northern California division. Originally, the construction was scheduled to start after the holidays with a new goal of opening by Thanksgiving 2012. The appeal delayed the schedule, said Houghton. Safeway opened in Millbrae in 1962. would even consider this. Even if San Francisco voters will not be able to make their views known, the attention surrounding the ballot initiative has been good for circumcision opponents, Schoeld said. The mission wont be accomplished until men enjoy the same protection as women from forced genital mutilation, but everything we can achieve on the way to that goal is a step in the right contract was never signed, but that Fiores actions in announcing his name at the press conference and in other promotional materials made it clear that an agreement had been reached. The agreement called for Pesci to be paid $3 million provided he was willing and able to act in the lm. Defendant has no intention of paying (Pesci) $3 million or having him portray Ruggiero in the lm, the lawsuit claims. Rather, plaintiff secretly planned to use (Pescis) name and likeness to promote the lm and then to later concoct some pretext for terminating the contract so as to avoid paying plaintiff anything for the substantial publicity and buzz that was generated. Fiore said agreements had been reached with most of the other high-prole actors, including Travolta, Pacino and Preston. Shooting on the lm was scheduled to begin on Jan. 3. the county, she said. It was a good compromise and now the voters can make the nal decision in November, Koelling said. A 2 percent increase would have raised about $325,000 annually, the citys Finance Director Steve Toler said. A 1.5 percent, the tax will bring the city in an extra $250,000 a year if voters approve the tax hike in November. The city intends to have a fully balanced budget by the end of FY 2012-13 without dipping into the its reserves, roughly $16 million. The citys general fund budget is about $31 million. The Foster City Council meets 6:30 p.m., Monday, Aug. 1, City Hall, 620 Foster City Blvd., Foster City.

At its meeting last week, the council failed to get the necessary four votes on the ordinances rst reading, however, to seek a 2 percent increase to the hotel tax on the November ballot as Wykoff and Bronitsky voted no. As a result, Councilwoman Pam Frisella amended the original ordinance and dropped the tax rate down to 9.5 percent instead of 10 percent. That slight drop was enough to get Bronitskys vote on the ordinances rst reading and he told the Daily Journal he will vote yes on the ordinance after the second reading this Monday night.

It is currently 37,094 square feet with 92 parking spaces, according to the staff report written by contract planner Catherine Barber. Space was added in the early 90s. The new proposal is to demolish the current building, probably in early 2012, to create a 59,001-square-foot store with 183 parking spots which would be reached by using an escalator or elevator. Inside the store will be a Seattles Best Coffee and a U.S. Bank, said Houghton. direction, he said. Just getting people to think and discuss this is very rewarding because people dont think about this, they just do it automatically. Though state law prohibits cities and counties from regulating medical procedures, two California Assembly members have introduced a bill that would specically pre-empt local governments from enacting laws regarding male circumcision.

Difficulties accomplishing anything in the year ahead will not be due to an absence of opportunities, but from the fact that you might have too many options. Select the ones that interest you the most and tackle them first.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Praise, politeness and tact are tools that always work very well for everybody. However, you will need one more element, and that is a ring of sincerity. Mean what you say. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Your word must always be your bond, especially when making a commitment

to a special someone. A broken promise could leave a wound that would be extremely difficult to heal. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Youre good at flowery speech, but you might be tempted to lay it on rather thick, leaving a lot of doubt in anothers mind. Better use a thinner brush and smaller strokes. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Although youre basically an intense person, you could be more bold than smart, and get yourself in a lot of trouble. As the saying goes, Dont rush in where angels fear to tread. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- The last thing you need to tell someone who comes to you for help is what you believe she or he wants to hear instead of the truth. Itll hurt your pal even further. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Regardless of what

you find yourself doing, rely only on your own smarts, abilities and resources. You could lock yourself out if you depend on others for help. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Listen to the suggestions of others, but dont use what they say as an excuse to cop out or fail to think for yourself, especially if you know more about things then they do. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Doing something good for phony reasons will be transparent to those whom youre trying to impress. Be sure your motives are sincere and not just for show. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- When out in public, your common sense usually enables you to maintain a pleasant demeanor toward those who have offended you in the past. You might have a hard time

doing so today, however. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Do not employ permissiveness toward those in your charge when discipline is required. Youll be asking for trouble, because the former compounds mistakes, while the latter corrects them. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Unless your mind is totally focused on your work, even tasks you handle on a regular basis could go awry, so dont take anything for granted. Serious mistakes are likely if you stray. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- If youre watching your pennies, subdue extravagant spending habits, such as purchasing something at its initial price when you know it will be reduced down the line.

PM: Norway has to change Murder of Afghan mayor


By Karl Ritter and Jim Heinz
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

deals setback to Karzai


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OSLO, Norway Norway will never be the same after last weeks bombing and mass shooting but it shouldnt change the way the suspect wants it to, the prime minister said Wednesday. He called on his country to react by more tightly embracing, rather than abandoning, the culture of tolerance that Anders Behring Breivik said he was trying to destroy. The Norwegian response to violence is more democracy, more openness and greater political participation, Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg insisted at a news conference. Fridays bombing outside Stoltenbergs offices in Oslo and the shooting that followed at a camp organized by the youth wing of his Labor Party killed 76 people and battered the psyche of a nation that prides itself on openness. Breivik confessed but has pleaded not guilty, claiming the attacks were necessary to fight what he called Muslim colonization and multiculturalism. I think what we have seen is that there is going to be one Norway before and one Norway after July 22, Stoltenberg said. But I hope and also believe that the Norway we will see after will be more open, a more tolerant society than what we had before. Stoltenberg strongly defended

the right to speak freely even if it includes extremist views such as Breiviks. We have to be very clear to distinguish between extreme views, opinions thats completely legal, legitimate to have. What is not legitimate is to try to implement those extreme views by using violence, he said in English. Stoltenbergs promise in the face of twin attacks signaled a contrast to the U.S. response after the 9/11 attacks, when Washington gave more leeway to perform wiretaps and search records. It reflects the difference between the two countries approaches to terrorism. The U.S. has been frustrated by what it considers Scandinavias lack of aggressive investigation and arrests. Since the attacks, Stoltenberg and members of Norways royal family have underlined the countrys openness by making public appearances with little visible security guarding them. Norways response to the camp attack, on the island of Utoya, has been criticized. Though it is just 25 miles (40 kilometers) from Oslo, it took police 90 minutes to get there. The crew of the sole helicopter available to police was on vacation, and the first boat that officials tried to take to the island broke down.

KANDAHAR, Afghanistan An assassin struck at the heart of President Hamid Karzais political machine in southern Afghanistan Wednesday, killing the mayor of Kandahar with an exploding turban and deepening a power vacuum in the Talibans main stronghold. The slaying of Mayor Ghulam Haider Hamidi was the third killing of a Karzai associate in a little more than two weeks. The attacks have jeopardized the Afghan governments tenuous grip on the strategic south after recent success in routing the Taliban. On July 12, a close associate gunned down Karzais powerful half brother at his home in Kandahar. Five days later, Karzais inner circle suffered another hit when gunmen in Kabul killed Jan Mohammad Khan, a presidential adviser on tribal issues and a former governor of Uruzgan province, which is also in the south. The 65-year-old, gray-haired mayor was slain inside a heavily fortified government compound just before he was to meet with local residents caught up in a land dispute, according to Mohammad Nabi, an employee of the mayors office. The attacker was holding a piece of paper and trying to talk to

the mayor when he detonated a bomb hidden inside his turban, said Nabi, who witnessed the killing. After that, there was some shooting, he said. I hid behind a wall. The windows were shattered. There was dark smoke. In the aftermath, part of the attackers black and gray-striped turban was strewn on the ground next to a blood-spattered tree. One civilian was also killed and another civilian and a security guard were wounded, the governors office said.
