Tax break zone bill shelved


Assemblyman Jerry Hills legislation inspired by Brisbane companys move
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

A bill intended to close a loophole in existing law that lets companies relocate to another city within the state to gain lucrative tax credits failed to pass out of a legislative committee yesterday. Assembly Bill 1278, authored by

Jerry Hill

Assemblyman Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo, was inspired by a company, VWR International, that is ditching Brisbane to relocate to an enterprise zone in the

city of Visalia. But Hill failed to get the four votes needed to move the bill past the committee stage. The bill was not supported by the chair. I thought I could do it now and was looking for one Republican to support it, Hill said. The state Assembly Committee on Jobs, Economic Development,

and the Economy is chaired by Manuel Perez, D-Coachella. Perezs Assembly District includes Imperial County, which ofcially opposed Hills legislation. Perez also has three enterprise zones in his district, while San Mateo County has none. Californias enterprise zone program was established in 1984 to

stimulate business investment in depressed areas of the state and create job opportunities for residents. Currently, state law allows companies to receive tax credits for ring an employee in one location and replacing them in another location within the state through enterprise zones. But enterprise zones were

Peninsula residents have many options when looking for fresh cuts of meat including, clockwise from above, Pape Meat Company,in Millbrae;Los Primos Meat Market,in Menlo Park and San Bruno;and Draegers Market,in Menlo Park and San Mateo.

SACRAMENTO A California Senate committee unanimously approved a bill Tuesday to block local jurisdictions from banning male circumcision, a debate that evolved from a divisive ballot measure in San Francisco that would have barred the practice for most boys under age 18. The Senate Judiciary Committee voted 5-0 for the bill by two Democratic lawmakers that would declare that circumcision surgically removing the foreskin that covers the tip of the penis has health, cultural and other benets, and that uniform statewide rules are needed to govern it and a parents authority over whether their children receive it. Its a medical procedure, and it has value, said Assemblyman Mike Gatto, D-Los Angeles, co-author of

Sex offender arrested again with child porn


DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT

San Mateo County residents have many purveyors to choose from when buying meat whether its a standard cut of beef for dinner or something more unusual. Some butchers can be found inside a grocery store and others have businesses

more centered around offering meat. Pape Meat Company, Los Primos Meat Market and Draegers Market are just a few of these places where customers can nd a variety of meat products for any budget or taste. We have an entire draw around the Bay Area, and weve got a great reputation, said Michael Pape, co-owner of Pape Meat Company. Our customers

can pre-order their product also ... its the service of having your order put aside. Pape Meat Company has been in Millbrae since 1958, and 53-year-old Michael Pape has owned the business for eight years with his uncle and cousin. The tradition began with his father and

A 25-year-old San Mateo man convicted previously for keeping child pornography involving very young girls and adult men on his home computer was arrested again Monday by county probation ofcers for the same offense, according to San Mateo police. Kent Ping Lin was sentenced in December to seven months in jail and three years of supervised probation for felony child possession and misdemeanor drug possession. San Mateo

During the War of 1812, British forces invaded Washington, D.C., setting re to the Capitol and the White House, as well as other buildings. In A.D. 79, long-dormant Mount Vesuvius erupted, burying the Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum in volcanic ash; an estimated 20,000 people died. In 1572, the St. Bartholomews Day massacre of French Protestants at the hands of Catholics began in Paris.

King Kong is 50 feet tall. He is from Skull Island. *** The 1933 movie King Kong was a huge success that saved its lm company, RKO Radio Pictures, from bankruptcy. In its rst week, the movie earned $100,000. Movie admission at the time cost 15 cents. *** Actress Fay Wray (1907-2004) appeared in over 100 movies in the 1920s and 30s, but she is most famous for her role as Ann Darrow in King Kong. She is the unwitting love interest of the big ape that gets abducted atop of the Empire State Building. *** Thanks to the famous King Kong scene, the Empire State Building and Fay Wray will always be remembered together.

The demand for the feathers was so high that ostriches were hunted and killed almost to extinction. *** Goose feathers were the most common feather used for quill pens.

defense. Smith did not return a call for comment on his request but has already eluded once in court to his clients mental state. Apour has a pending misdemeanor battery case from July but her most Shawna Apour recent run-ins with the law began Aug. 12 when she reportedly rose from watching television with her boyfriend and headed to his bedroom with a knife. After she exited and left the home on Crestview Drive, Apours boyfriend reported nding his pet stabbed between the shoulders and blood on the aquarium. Speedy was rushed to the veterinarian for three stitches but died four days later. Apour reportedly used the knife to vandalize a 1958 Buick belonging to her boyfriends brother and slashed the tires of two other vehicles. She also reportedly scratched hate crime into one hood. Prosecutor say Apours boyfriend claimed she punched him the day before because she thought he was irting with other women and that she has an obsession with knives. Police responding to the April 12 call found Apour wandering a street with the knife which she allegedly brandished at them. Deputies Tasered Apour after she refused to drop the weapon. The following Tuesday, after Apour was released from custody on $25,000 bail, she was found wandering on the tracks near the San Carlos train station. When a deputy made contact with her, Apour allegedly became aggressive and grabbed for the deputys gun and Taser. Taken together, Apour is charged with felony counts of animal abuse, domestic violence, obstructing an ofcer, attempting to take a rearm from a peace ofcer, vandalism and misdemeanor counts of brandishing a weapon, resisting arrest and trespassing. She is also charged with the allegation she committed a felony while out on bail. Apour appeared in court last Friday at which point Smith unsuccessfully asked that she be released on her own recognizance so that she could be treated for psychological issues. During the brief hearing, Apour also let out a wail. Apour remains in custody in lieu of $200,00 bail.

A black and white Boston terrier was taken from a residence on the 200 block of Milton Avenue in San Bruno before 12:31 p.m. Monday, Aug. 8.

A San Carlos woman accused of mortally stabbing her boyfriends pet lizard and days later wrestling with law enforcement trying to remove her from the train tracks may not be mentally t for prosecution, according to her defense attorney. Shawna Kim Apour, 37, is accused of several crimes during a short window in which she allegedly stabbed Speedy, the 14-year-old bearded lizard, and hit her boyfriend for reportedly irting with other women, vandalized several vehicles and resisted arrest multiple times. On Tuesday, defense attorney Charles B. Smith asked the court to suspend criminal proceedings against Apour and appoint two doctors to evaluate her competency. The formal appointment will be Aug. 25 and the doctors conclusions will determine if she heads to a state mental facility for treatment or stands trial on several charges stemming from the two incidents. Unlike sanity which is a persons mental state at the time of an alleged crime, competency is the ability to aid on ones own

The free-swinging fighting at Saturdays game was witnessed by the mayors of San Francisco and Oakland along with being captured on video and replayed on the Internet. More than 70 fans were ejected from the stadium, 12 people were arrested and dozens of medical calls were made. Ofcials said those were unheard of numbers for a typical home game at Candlestick Park. After the game, two men were wounded in separate parking lot shootings. A third man earlier was beaten unconscious in a bathroom. All were in fair condition. No one was arrested. And police were investigating what prompted the attacks and were trying to identify suspects.

SAN FRANCISCO MediaNews Group is combining most of its daily newspapers in the San Francisco Bay Area to save money. The shake-up announced Tuesday will affect about a dozen newspapers located

across the Bay from San Francisco. Beginning Nov. 2, those newspapers will shed their distinct identities and adopt one of two new brands, the East Bay Tribune and The Times. Fewer newspapers brands will result in fewer jobs. The MediaNews division that operates the affected newspapers

expects to reduce a staff of 1,500 by about 8 percent, or 120. The largest newspapers affected by the overhaul are The Oakland Tribune and the Contra Costa Times in Walnut Creek. The cuts reect the tough times facing most major newspapers amid a prolonged advertising slump.

Plane makes emergency landing in EPA
A flight student and instructor were conducting landing and takeoff exercises in a small plane just before they were forced to make an emergency landing on a dirt road near East Palo Alto Tuesday morning, a Federal Aviation Administration spokesman said. A preliminary investigation into the emergency revealed that the Beechcraft Musketeers engine started running roughly during flight exercises at Palo Alto Airport, prompting the forced landing about two miles west of the airport at 9:47 a.m., FAA spokesman Ian Gregor said. Neither the instructor nor the student was injured, Gregor said. The planes left wing struck a tree after the landing, causing substantial damage. The incident remains under investigation by the FAA.

Court dismisses sex case;Strauss-Kahn free


NEW YORK Dominique StraussKahn became a free man Tuesday when a judge ended the sexual assault case against him at the request of prosecutors, who said the hotel maid who accused the former International Monetary Fund chief couldnt be trusted. Though evidence showed Strauss-Kahn had a sexual encounter with Nassatou Diallo in his hotel suite more than three months ago, prosecutors said the accuser was not credible because of lies she has told, including an earlier false rape claim. State Supreme Court Justice Michael Obus said he would dismiss the case, but there was one more legal twist to get through: He rst wanted an appeals court to hear a request from Diallos attorneys to keep the case alive by appointing a special prosecutor. The criminal case ended about two hours later, when the higher court agreed with Obus that there was no legal Dominique basis for removing Strauss-Kahn the district attorney from the case. The case drew global attention and left both the accuser and the accused a one-time contender for the French presidency with tattered reputations. Strauss-Kahn arrived at court in a sixcar motorcade and was greeted by protesters wielding signs carrying such messages as DSK treats women like property and Put the rapist on trial not the victim. The shouting could be heard inside the courtroom. He appeared resolute inside. He smiled and shook hands with his biographer as his wife, journalist Anne Sinclair, sat nearby. The couple left court without speaking to reporters, but Strauss-Kahn later issued a statement describing the case as a nightmare for me and my family. I want to thank all the friends in France and in the United States who have believed in my innocence, and to the thousands of people who sent us their support personally and in writing. I am most deeply grateful to my wife and family who have gone through this ordeal with me, he said.

Boat capsized off Oyster Point


One person was rescued after a capsized boat was located 1.5 miles southeast of Oyster Poster Marina in San Francisco Bay Monday afternoon. A small 8-foot sailboat was found shortly after 4 p.m. Monday. Two people were sailing when the mast broke outside the marina, according to the South San Francisco Fire Department. One brother stayed with the boat while the other swam to shore at the San Francisco International Airport to report the incident. South San Francisco, San Francisco International Airport Fire and the U.S. Coast Guard responded. Once the other brother was found, he was transferred to Peninsula Hospital, according to the South San Francisco Fire Department. No major injuries were reported.

San Carlos extending massage permit ban


DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT

Four stabbing victims arrive at ER


Four stabbing victims showed up at a hospital in Daly City early Tuesday morning, a police spokesman said. Officers went to Seton Medical Center at about 2:30 a.m. after hospital officials contacted police to report the arrival of four victims of an apparent stabbing, Daly City police Sgt. David Mackriss said. All four victims had moderate injuries, Mackriss said, none of which appeared to be life threatening. The initial investigation led police to Serra Bowl based on information from one of the victims who said the stabbing took place there, Mackriss said. Police found no evidence the stabbing took place at the bowling alley, Mackriss said. Investigators now believe the stabbing occurred in San Francisco, possibly in the Richmond or Sunset districts, Mackriss said. Officers from the Daly City and San Francisco police departments are both investigating the incident.

At the request of its highest law enforcement ofcial, the San Carlos City Council agreed to extend an emergency moratorium on new massage permits for a full year to allow time to research and craft a permanent ordinance that is less prone to allowing prostitution. The council voted 3-1, with Councilman Bob Grassilli dissenting and Councilman Brad Lewis absent, in favor of the extension. The action stretches out the 45-day urgency ban established in July for another 10 months and 15 days which is the maxi-

mum allowed under the government code. The extra time will let the city craft a better ordinance, possibly with help from the California Massage Therapy Council, the nonprot organization that now oversees Californias massage industry and balked at the emergency ban. The extension allows existing locales to renew their permits as long as all therapists have valid, unconditional certicates from CAMTC. The state established the council in 2009 to free practitioners from background checks and

license fees in any and all cities where they worked. Since 2009, when the state took over massage therapist licensing from individual cities, Sheriffs Capt. Greg Rothaus has said the city has a growing number of applications for business registrations and related permits. He also said there are other tell-tale signs pointing to prostitution and possibly human trafficking, such as community complaint, appearances of businesses on escort websites and at least one arrest as part of a police sting. City ofcials hope to mimic a forthcoming county massage ordinance.

States may get second chance at insurance exchange


By Matt Gouras
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HELENA, Mont. The Obama administration said Tuesday that states that have not adopted their own insurance exchanges may get a second chance to avoid getting one run solely by the federal government. Only 11 states have fully embraced

the idea of taking federal money to set up their own state-run insurance exchange, a U.S. Department of Health and Human Services official said Tuesday. The exchange, a key part of Obamas health care overhaul, is designed to help uninsured people buy coverage from a choice of plans with federal tax credits. But states that have been slow to

accept the idea, or outright rejected it in resistance to the law, will have another chance. U.S. Department of Health and Human Services ofcials told Montana legislators Tuesday that the agency is working on a new partnership model to let state agencies help run the exchange perhaps without the need for legislative authorization.

Irene remains big threat to U.S.

Broken well pump cuts water to downtown Pescadero
PESCADERO A broken well pump has cut off water to the coastal San Mateo County town of Pescadero, and ofcials say the pipes could stay dry for days. The county-run water system broke down late Monday night. Greg Bonaparte of the Pescadero Municipal Advisory Committee says the primary pump actually had been malfunctioning for a week but it went undetected because the alarm system had been disconnected. Bonaparte says repairs are underway, but water could remain off for about 100 homes and businesses in downtown until at least Thursday. The county plans to deliver bottled water to residents. But businesses, such as bed and breakfasts, are considering closing for the week because of the lack of working toilets. The First National Bank was closed Tuesday.

WILMINGTON, N.C. People stocked up on food, boarded windows and gassed up their cars Tuesday as Hurricane Irene threatened to become the most powerful storm to hit the East Coast in seven years. Water, bread and batteries disappeared from store shelves. Lines formed at the pump. From Florida to Maine, residents were told to brace for ash ooding and power outages. Hundreds of miles south, Irene swirled through the Caribbean, giving a glimpse of what was to come. Homes were inundated with water, residents took refuge in schools and churches, and more than a million people were without electricity. One woman was killed in Puerto Rico. Forecasters warned it could get worse: The storm was likely to strengthen into a Category 4 monster by the time it makes a landfall in the U.S. this weekend, most likely hitting North Carolina. Irene could crawl up the coast Sunday toward the Northeast region, where residents arent accustomed to such storms.

Andronicos Markets files for bankruptcy


OAKLAND An upscale San Francisco Bay Aarea grocery chain has led for bankruptcy.

Strongest quake since 44 jars East Coast


By Bob Lewis
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MINERAL, Va. Tens of millions of people from Georgia to Canada were jolted Tuesday by the strongest earthquake to strike the East Coast since World War II. Three weeks before the 10th anniversary of Sept. 11, office workers poured out of New York skyscrapers and the Pentagon, relieved it was nothing more sinister than an act of nature. There were no known deaths or serious injuries, but cracks appeared in the National Cathedral and three capstones broke off its tower. Windows shattered and grocery stores were wrecked in Virginia, where the quake was centered. The White House and Capitol were partly evacuated. The U.S. Geological Survey said the quake registered magnitude 5.8. By West Coast standards, that is mild. But the East Coast is not accustomed to earthquakes at all, and this one unsettled some of the nations biggest population centers.

I thought I was having maybe a heart attack,and I saw everybody running.I think what it is,is the paranoia that happens from 9/11,and thats why Im still out here because,Im sorry,Im not playing with my life.
Adrian Ollivierre,an accountant

In New York and Washington, people said their thoughts were of an explosion or terrorist attack. In some cases, workers in Washington mentioned the tremors in phone calls to colleagues in New York, and seconds later, the shaking reached there, too. We thought it was a bomb at rst because everyone has 9/11 on the brain and that its so close to September and the 10th anniversary, said Cathy McDonald, who works in an IRS ofce in downtown Washington. Hundreds of people spilled out of the federal courthouse blocks from ground zero after the quake struck just before 2 p.m. EDT. Workers in the Empire State Building rushed into the streets, some having descended dozens of ights of stairs.

I thought wed been hit by an airplane, said one worker, Marty Wiesner. Adrian Ollivierre, an accountant who was in his ofce on the 60th oor when the shaking began, said: I thought I was having maybe a heart attack, and I saw everybody running. I think what it is, is the paranoia that happens from 9/11, and thats why Im still out here because, Im sorry, Im not playing with my life. The quake was felt as far north as Toronto, as far west as Indiana and Kentucky and as far south as Atlanta and Savannah, Ga. It was also felt on Marthas Vineyard off Massachusetts, where President Barack Obama, who is vacationing there, was getting ready to tee off in a round of golf.

Earthquake sparks terrorism memories as 9/11 approaches

West Coast chuckles over East Coasts fears


By Jacob Adelman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES Soon after the lunch plates stopped rattling and books stopped thumping to the oor, shaken easterners could hear another sound from Tuesdays magnitude-5.8 quake: snickering emanating from opposite side of the continent. Really all this excitement over a 5.8 quake??? Come on East Coast, we have those for breakfast out here!!!! wrote Dennis Miller, 50, a lifelong California resident whose house in Pleasanton sits on an earthquake fault line. On Twitter and Facebook and over email, people circulated a

photo of a table and four plastic lawn chairs in a serene garden setting. One of the chairs flipped on its back. The mock image carried the title DC Earthquake Devastation. All the more laughable for some were the images of people eeing buildings the exact opposite of what youre supposed to do in a quake. Hey East Coast, the entire West Coast is mocking you right now, tweeted Todd Walker, an Anchorage TV anchorman. The tough earthquake talk comes from a coast that is apparently jaded by its own seismic activity or perhaps not as experienced as it imagines itself to be.

Tuesdays quake was the East Coasts largest since 1944. California alone has seen 35 quakes of that size since then. The flippancy partly disguises how serious the quakes are taken in California, Alaska and other earthquake-prone parts of the country. Many West Coast residents are trained to dive under desks and tables when the shaking starts and there is a recognition that temblors of similar size to the one that hit Virginia on Tuesday have caused deaths and millions of dollars of damage here. Despite the frequency of middling temblors, many people havent experienced a truly earth-shaking quake.

WASHINGTON Shaking ground and swaying buildings sent panicked people rushing for exits, pouring into streets or diving under desks. For some in Washington and New York and elsewhere along the East Coast, their first thoughts turned to terrorism not nature. Sen. Chris Coons, D-Del., was walking up Capitol Hill on his way to preside over a pro-forma session of the Senate when Tuesdays earthquake hit. Feeling the ground sway, he sat down on a bench. My concern was that it was something other than an earthquake, Coons said. He ended up presiding over a 22-second technical session in a conference room of a building near the Capitol. A quake was not the rst thought either for Lisa Goeas, who works

in a building a few blocks from the White House and near a city subway station. Our building is right across the street from the Metro, so we thought a bomb went off, said a shaken Goeas, who ed her ofce with her colleagues. At the majestic Washington National Cathedral, at least three of the four pinnacles on the central tower fell off, a spokesman said. The pinnacles are the top stones on the cathedrals towers. Cracks appeared in the ying buttresses at the cathedrals east end, the oldest part of the structure. The earthquake centered in Virginia the most powerful quake to strike the East Coast in 67 years was felt as far south as South Carolina and north to Massachusetts, where a vacationing President Barack Obama was about to tee off in a round of golf on Marthas Vineyard.

the rent but he was reticent. He nally acquiesced. In the meantime, I talked with Joe about the situation. He said that he cant help the tenant because if he did that to all his tenants he would be unable to pay all his mortgages and property taxes on the buildings. I told him that it was not all his tenants who were asking it was just this one tenant. He thoughtfully listened and then agreed to help the man. When my group was trying to stop redevelopment and possible eminent domain in San Bruno, Joe let us use one of his vacant buildings free of charge for months. One night, the merchants had a meeting about ideas to prevent the city from using eminent domai, and our mayor at the time came to the meeting. We asked him to leave, as we didnt want to discuss our brainstorming (one person had suggested a legal maneuver) while he was there. Poor Joe was trying to call the police because the mayor wouldnt leave and I told him it was to no avail that would never work! The mayor and I were on good terms, but that night it got a bit dicey. Joe was generous with feeding the homeless. He gave substantial amounts of money to St. Anthonys dining hall. Additionally, each year he donated the candy for San Brunos Halloween festival. He treated guests like kings and queens when he gave a party at his house/mansion in San Bruno. He had a caricature artist at the last one I attended. I still have my caricature done at

Remembering Joe Welch


By Barbara LaRaia

knew something was wrong when I saw the most beautiful wreath of a myriad of fresh owers on Joe Welchs business door to his famous museum and ofce Saturday. I then read of his passing. Joe Giuseppe as I often called him and I met when I was involved in San Bruno politics about 15 years ago; we also worked together on gathering signatures to stop redevelopment about 10 years ago. He was a force to be reckoned with but only outwardly. Inside he was like a gentle giant. This man owned mostly commercial property in San Bruno and South San Francisco, and was often given a bad rap. I remember when he was running for mayor and there was information going around that the reason San Bruno had such a bad downtown was because Joe owned almost the whole downtown and was a slum landlord. I asked Joe if he owned any buildings downtown, and he gave me the address list of about six out of more than 100 buildings. And none of Joes were in ill-repair as a matter of fact, he told me that he did triple-net leases with his tenants, which means that they do all repairs or upgrades as they see t. I remember one time talking with a downtown merchant when I co-founded the Downtown San Bruno Merchants Association. The merchant told me about his nancial problems and how his business was going through hard times. I asked him who his landlord was, and he told me it was Joe. He also told me he was a long-term tenant of Joes. I suggested he talk to Joe about

Joes. And anyone could tour his worldfamous slot-machine museum for free. I went to his wake Monday and he held a beautiful pair of black rosary beads in his clasped hands. I said my nal goodbye and talked with his three sons. One son told me how Joe got started. When Highway 101 was in its nascent stage, Joe would buy houses in the freeways path for $1. He simultaneously would buy lots in San Bruno for $1,000. He got a house-moving company to move the houses to San Bruno, and then xed up the houses to sell. Then he got into the building phase of his career by building small apartment buildings on San Brunos east side. Eventually, he went commercial. A sterling example of the American Dream. When I ran into his son during my morning exercise route and asked him about his dad, his words were He loved his city. And did he ever. He could have lived anywhere in the world, but he chose San Bruno. I will miss Joe but the sadness is assuaged by the fact that he will soon be frolicking in heaven with our friends Lou Papan and Ralph Carrillo.

Lost Boys?
f we dont hear the language of love as children, we cant repeat it. Lois Weiss, Love Talk. On Aug. 4, it was reported that Michael Mayor Bloomberg of New York had donated $30 million of his fortune to try to develop programs that will attempt to prevent the high percentage of black and Latino young men from ending up in the criminal justice system. Mayor Bloomberg is telling us something that a large percentage of especially underprivileged youth are not getting the attention they need and deserve in our culture. Highly signicant is the fact that, as has been reported, 74 percent of young men age 17 to 24 are ineligible for our military because of no high school diploma, drug use, obesity and criminal records. This reminded me of the following: shortly after he turned 3, older grandson, playing on the oor, looked up at me with his brown eyes sparkling and proclaimed, Im going to be a man when I grow up and Ill go to work! That got me to thinking about what he would have to deal with along the road to maturity. Now hes 23, just graduated from college, and I think of his 8-year-old cousin and the even greater plight of todays boys in our culture with much more fear and trepidation than I did his cousin. I also lament the many detrimental changes in our culture since their parents were young. Compared to today, the media was relatively innocuous. Grisly and raunchy video and computer games had not invaded every home. Schools were well funded. More mothers were able to be at home with their children. We didnt worry about child abductions and violence in schools. Gang activities and street shootings werent reported on every news broadcast. Crudeness and disrespect were denitely discouraged. Add the male mystique that most boys in our culture have always emulated and its easy to see how so many boys become troubled. Men and boys are expected to be strong, independent, competitive, aggressive, stoic and invulnerable. Despite some gains in awareness of the problem, this cultural expectation continues to prevail and, in one way or another, inuences our boys every day as their penchant for aggression and competition is regularly exploited by the media. Just by watching television, a boy will see men portrayed as bumbling idiots, crude Neanderthals, lecherous predators, mindless automatons obsessed with power and violence, narcissistic and arrogant athletes and entertainers, or maybe just mindless airheads who have no clue. For many boys, this is all they have to look to for role models. James Barbarino, author of Lost Boys, writes that boys fall victim to an unfortunate synchronicity between the demons inhabiting their internal world and the corrupting inuence of modern American culture. They lost their way in the pervasive experience of vicarious violence, crude sexuality, shallow materialism, mean-spirited competitiveness and spiritual emptiness. So how does this all add up? Todays boys need thoughtful nurturing and support more than ever, but a great many are lacking in that regard. Too many children are born to people who have no intention or ability to adequately care for them, who dont have their own lives together enough to provide for them physically and/or psychologically. As a result, a deep-seated rage often develops. Such boys will be considered successful if its ramications are generally considered socially acceptable such as participation in violent sports, exploiting others for the compulsive accumulation of wealth and power, deantly blocking the progress of legislation in Congress or producing gory and sadistic movies. But when the rage breaks through in street shootings and murderous rampages, we are horried. In writing of males, Andrew B. Smookler, author of Out of Weakness, said, Our rage is the hidden wound from the war our culture wages against our nature and that remains implanted to rage within us. And rage in turn is the passion of war. And violence and homicide. Too many boys lack the presence of at least one consistent male adult who cherishes him, supports him, encourages him to express his feelings appropriately, spends unhurried time with him, overtly values education, dispenses loving discipline and helps him direct his propensity for action, competition and assertion in a productive way. Too many boys are left to absorb the values of their peers, exploitive corporate interests and whatever other unsavory aspects of our society that they happen to encounter. The health and well-being of its children is the barometer of any cultures viability. How long are we going to look the other way when repeated signicant indicators point to the despair, loneliness and alienation of so many of our boys? When, like Mayor Bloomberg, are more of us going to face the fact that we all have a stake in this and do something about it?
Since 1984, Dorothy Dimitre has written more than 500 columns for various local newspapers. Her e-mail address is

Letters to the editor


Lack of morality and conscience
Editor, Jorg Aadahls letter, Obama hates America? in the Aug. 11 edition of the Daily Journal, reminds me of something president Ronald Reagan was fond of saying: The trouble with our liberal friends is not that theyre ignorant, its just that they know so much that isnt so. Mr. Aadahl questions the morality of conservatives, giving the tired, old argument that they want to kick veterans, women, children and the elderly into the gutter; meanwhile, they want to protect tax loopholes for billionaires. But ask yourself, is it moral to stack decit spending upon decit spending, leaving for our children and generations to come the burden of paying for it? How bad is our national debt? If Congress stopped all spending today and voted a budget of zero for all federal programs, they could follow it up with legislation that directs the U.S. Treasury to pay $100 million per day against the national debt and it would still take 389 years to pay it off. Or, in keeping with Mr. Aadahls way of thinking, we could force Americas 357 billionaires to hand over all their money and wealth, averaging $3 billion each according to Forbes, and...well, we would still be $13 trillion short of what is needed. My guess is that Bill Gates and all his friends know that taking all their money and wealth and giving it to the federal government wouldnt solve our spending problem, which is why they are not handing over more than is required. And they probably think stealing it from them would be what? Immoral!

Israeli airport security


Editor, Frank Scafanis letter to the editor (Taking the Train published in Aug. 22 edition of the Daily Journal) ridicules Israeli security strategies which may now be employed at our own American airports. Perhaps, if we had been as vigilant as the Israelis in combating jihadi terrorism, 3000 Americans would not have been incinerated in hijacked airplanes.

The Nasdaq composite, which tracks mainly technology companies, rose 100.68 points, or 4.3 percent, to 2,446.06. The Russell 2000 index of smaller U.S. companies gained even more, 4.9 percent. When stocks plunged last Thursday, the reverse was true. The Dow fell 419 points but only 3.7 percent. The other three indexes fell more. The Russell 2000 lost the most, 5.9 percent. As of Monday the Standard & Poors 500 index had lost 16 percent over four weeks as investors worried that the U.S. might enter another recession and as Europes debt crisis flared up again. That meant the average company in the index was priced at just 11 times its expected earnings per share for 2011. Thats too low if youre not in a recession, Paulsen said.

NEW YORK Buyers returned to the stock market Tuesday after deciding the pounding stocks have taken the past month made them too cheap to resist. The Dow Jones industrial average jumped 322 points, its best day since Aug. 11, when it gained 423. The Dow dipped about 60 points shortly after an earthquake hit the East Coast at 1:51 p.m., but recovered within 20 minutes and soared even higher in the last two hours of trading. James Paulsen, chief investment strategist at Wells Capital Management, said the beating stocks have taken since late July suggested investors were preparing for a recession. They questioned that bleak outlook Tuesday after a survey of manufacturing in the Southeast from the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond, Va. pointed to a slowdown, not a recession. And when people are preparing for a recession, slow growth is good right now.

New-home sales continue to fall


By Derek Kravitz
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Sales of new homes fell for the third straight month in July, a sign that housing remains a drag on the economy. If the current pace continues, 2011 would be the worst year for new-home sales on records dating back at least half a century. Sales fell nearly 1 percent in July to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 298,000, the Commerce Department said Tuesday. Thats less than half the 700,000 that economists say represent a healthy market. Last year, 323,000 homes were sold the worst year on records that go back to 1963. While new homes represent less than one-fth of the housing market, they have an outsize impact on the economy. Each home built creates an average of three jobs

and $90,000 in taxes, according to the National Association of Home Builders. High unemployment, larger required down payments and tougher lending standards are preventing many people from buying homes. Plunging stocks and a growing fear that the U.S. could tip back into another recession are also keeping people from entering the troubled housing market. Renewed concerns about job security likely weighed on many would-be buyers minds, said Mark Vitner, senior economist at Wells Fargo. A slowdown in the U.S. economy has more than offset any boost from superlow mortgage rates, said Paul Dales, senior U.S. economist at Capital Economics. A new home is a luxury that many Americans can no longer afford, Dales said. All home sales remain weak. The sales

pace for previously occupied homes is trailing last years 4.91 million sales, the fewest since 1997. In a healthy economy, people buy roughly 6 million existing homes annually. A report last week showed that more home sales than usual fell apart at the last minute, a sign that many buyers may be nervous about the economy. At least 16 percent of deals were canceled head of closings last month four times the rate in May. The troubled housing industry is hurting the broader economy. After previous modern-day recessions, housing contributed up to 20 percent to U.S. economic growth. That has fallen to 4 percent following the Great Recession. Sales rose in July for new homes valued at less than $150,000. They also increased for those going for more than $750,000. But mid-priced home sales fell.

Facebook to let users pre-approve photo tags


New changes
Instead of going to a separate settings page,privacy controls will be on users prole pages, next to the information they share,such as the music they like or the schools they went to. Previously, most these controls were located several clicks away on an account settingspage. Instead of calling public posts visible to everyone, Facebook will now simply call these public. Facebook is also making a feature calledview prole asmore prominent.This lets you type in the name of another Facebook user and see how your prole looks to that person. For example, if you hide your photos and favorite music from some of your Facebook friends, this content wont show up if you view your prole as one of them. In a nod to Google Plus, the online search leaders edgling social network,Facebook is making it easier to share posts with specic groups of people. A dropdown menu next to each post you make will let you select public,friends or a custom audience. Over time, Facebook said this menu will expand to include smaller groups of people. You will now be able to tag anyone on Facebook, even if you are not friends with them.They will have to approve your request to tag, though, before the photo or post shows up on their prole.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Drunken revelers rejoice: Facebook will now let you decide whether your friends can attach your name to a photo before it is circulated. Currently, your friends can add your name to a photo on Facebook without your consent or knowledge. You can remove it later, but only after lots of others may have seen the embarrassing shots. Now, you can insist on preapproval. This wont affect whether your friends can add a photo of you, only whether your name is attached to it. Still, not having the name, known as a tag, can make it more difficult for people to find a potentially embarrassing

photo in a search. Facebook said on Tuesday that the change is in response to user requests. Pre-approving photo tags has been the most requested change, said Kate ONeill, product manager for Facebook. The pre-approval process will also apply to written posts that others tag you in.

Cap building a foundation


By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

For the third time in three years, the Capuchino football team will have a new head coach. Fortunately for the Mustangs, its a familiar name: former head man Adam Hyndman. Hyndman has been at Capuchino as a teacher and in various coaching capacities for 13 years. He guided the Mustangs football team from 2004 to 2006. He takes over for last years coach, Jordan Seiden. I felt this program needed someone on campus, Hyndman said. Its a big change. I think we were probably the only one in our district who had an off-campus coach (last year). While Hyndman will provide a familiar face, he and his coaching staff need to nd some continuity. The frosh-soph team has won the league championship twice over the last four years, but it has yet to translate to success at the varsity level. To help bring some continuity between the two programs, Hyndman also promoted last years froshsoph head coach to an assistant position on the varsity level this season. Bob Guerrero is a great coach. He ran what worked (at the frosh-soph level), Hyndman said. In order to be successful, they (the players) have to trust their coaches. In order to improve on last years record 1-4 in the Peninsula Athletic League Lake Division, 2-7 overall (the season opener was canceled following the tragic pipeline explosion) Hyndman is going back to basics: working on structure and discipline. Hes also looking for constant improvement throughout the season. Excelling in the classroom is always key, Hyndman said. I want my guys to be winners. That doesnt necessarily mean points on the scoreboard. That has to do with character. Not accepting losing is key right now. Weve struggled the last three, four year. It just seems losing is accepted and I want that to go away.

Cougars will have to grow up very quickly

Capuchinos Logan Soli showed a knack for making the big play last year. Coach Adam See CAP, Page 16 Hyndman does not want Soli to view himself as the teams savior,however.

Toughness, strength and heart are things you cant ever say lack from a Half Moon Bay football team. This year though, experience is. And that isnt the best thing considering that in 2011, the Peninsula Athletic League Ocean Division will probably be the most toughly-contested division. Were just really untested, said Cougars head coach Matt Ballard, now in his ninth season at the helm. We dont have a lot of returners. We go in hoping to compete in every game, but that will depend on whether the young guys can rise to the varsity level and compete. There are a lot of question marks in the Half Moon Bay camp this season. And come game one of the regular season, a bout with the always-athletic Woodside, the 2011 season could mean a change in philosophies for the pound-the-football offensive attack Cougar fans are used to. Gone is the most prolic runner in Half Moon Bay history, Dominic Sena, and in his absence Ballard is hoping the combination of Jesus Huerta and Wesley Walters can help ll the gigantic void. But the man who bears the bulk of that responsibility is quarterback Nate Seaton. Seaton is a three-year quarterback whos been groomed over the summer to shoulder the majority of the offensive load. We have to throw the ball more, Ballard said, and its his (Seatons) time to put it together. We denitely wont be able to rely on the running game like were used to. Ballard believes Seaton can get the job done. But make no mistake about it, its a big task the Cougars averaged 36.7 points per game in 2010, most of that due to the explosiveness of their running attack.

Two-a-days still a staple in college


By Jeff Latzke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NORMAN, Okla. Back when two-a-days were the norm for college football players preparing for the upcoming season, Bob Stoops had a solution. A safety at Iowa, Stoops remembers having two full weeks of two-a-day practices. It was just a grind to stay on the eld, said Stoops, now the head coach at No. 1 Oklahoma. And then youd take like 10 Bufferin just to go to practice. The NFLs new labor agreement does away with the old training camp staple of practicing twice in a single day, but its still a part of the college game to a much more limited degree than a generation ago. The Sooners had only four two-a-days on

their practice schedule this year, and Stoops would be ne with getting rid of those -- if the NCAA allowed teams four more days to practice before the season. If you can spread it out over more days, players stay healthier. They stay more fresh. You have more time in meetings, Stoops said. Its a lot better what were doing now than it used to be. Its healthier, especially for the young guys we work with. NCAA rules allow teams 29 preseason practices, but the number of days they get to complete those sessions varies by school based on when classes begin and several other factors. Since 2003, there has been a rule in place prohibiting schools from having two-a-days on consecutive days. Theres enough wiggle room for teams to plan out different preseason strategies.

Thats a personal preference, rst-year Florida coach Will Muschamp said. Its different than it used to be because it used to be no student-athletes were there in the summer. So they came to camp in August to get in shape for the season. Now they are here all summer so they are in good shape. To some around the sport, the lingering twoa-days are more about getting freshmen and other newcomers introduced to the grind of college football than rounding veterans into shape after a summer of voluntary workouts that are all but a necessity to keep up with the competition. Its year-round, said Oklahoma State defensive end Richetti Jones, adding that a good lunch, a dip in the cold tub and a nap between practices are key to two-a-day survival. They still got to go home and chill with the family, go

shing every day, eat their mommas cooking every day for a whole summer. We dont get to do that. Among teams that made BCS bowls last season, ACC champion Virginia Tech is the only one doing without two-a-days this year. The Hokies did away with it a few years ago, when coach Frank Beamer decided his players werent getting as much out of the second practice because they were tired. Instead of holding an early 90-minute session and a 2-hour late session when players started to move in slow motion, Beamer said, he now prefers a single session plus time for lm study. I just felt like we were always hurrying and not doing anything real, real good, and doing everything real, real fast, Beamer said.

NDNU womens soccer returns plenty of talent


By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

For the 2011 version of the Notre Dame de Namur womens soccer team, there is good news and there is bad news. First, the good news: in 2011, the Argos return their top six goal scorers. In fact, if you found the back of the net for Notre Dame in 2010, you will don the uniform once again. It isnt just about goals either. In 2010, Sarah Biser, Samantha Paetz and Kimberly Wilhite translated their complete efforts on the eld to All-PacWest Second Team nods. And Alexis Tershay received a Honorable Mention spot. Theyre all in camp, theyre t, theyre healthy and everything is going well, said BJ Noble, director of soccer at NDNU. The players are excited. With all the returners, and the new girls coming in, and just having numbers in general to train. We know we probably wont get a lot of respect early on, we know were going to have to earn it. But we feel we can surprise quite a few people and we have the opportunity to have a good team. The optimism is high at NDNU given a winning 2010, which saw the Argos nish 7-

5-2 in conference, good for a fth place nish. Notre Dam was super young in 2010 a year under their belts will only benet them in the ultra-competitive PacWest Conference. Theyll be led in the back by Kelsey Baxter, a four-year starter at goalkeeper. The senior logged over 1,380 minutes in goal for the Argos last season, going 8-7-1 with a 1.11 goals against average. Nobles team is deep at the keeper position, with Carrie Turgeon, a sophomore from Half Moon Bay, and newcomer Kelsee Berrymen, as more -than-adequate backups. On the backline, Noble will look to Wilhite and Amrum Singh to lead the way. Wilhite is a two-time All-Conference defender and Singh is coming off a solid inaugural campaign with the Argos. Shes just a very good lock-down defender, Noble said. The midfield might just be the Argos biggest strength. Returning are Paetz and Andrea Huerta, NDNUs two center mids. Huerta, a former Half Moon Bay Cougar, had seven points (three goals and one assist) for the Argonaunts last year, while Paetz made the PacWest second team with an eight-point effort. We denitely have a lot of strength

NDNUs Sarah Biser led the Argos in scoring last year and was an All-Pac West selection.
and leadership in the mideld, Noble said. Out wide, the Argos will have four-year starter Victoria Colon to run at the defense, with the other wing position still up in the air.

But if NDNU is to succeed in 2011, theyll have to nd the back of the net with better consistency. Last season, the Argos had a minus-3 goal differential, scoring 18 times. They do return All-PacWest striker Biser, who lead the team in goals (7) and points (15), to help in that regard. Shes a big, strong forward with pace and shes really looked good in camp, Noble said. Next to her up top will be Tershay, NDNUs second-leading scorer in 2010 with nine points. The Argos also have a couple of newcomers, Alexandra Cassandro, Marisa Schneider and Jessica Santos, who Noble is looking to for add some needed offensive spark. Now, for the bad news: the PacWest Conference didnt get any softer in the offseason. As always, BYU Hawaii (12-1-1), will be the most formidable of opponents. And while Noble and the Argos can take solace in the fact that they beat every one of their conference opponents at least once in 2010, the addition of Cal Baptist from Southern California, wont make things easier for them. We look forward to a good year, Noble said. Hopefully we can surprise some people and just play hard.

Giants rally to tie, but Padres score late to win


SAN FRANCISCO Alberto Gonzalez hit a go-ahead single in the ninth inning, Kyle Blanks had a two-run homer and the San Diego Padres beat the San Francisco Giants 75 on Tuesday night for their season-best fth straight victory. Nick Hundley doubled against Ramon Ramirez (2-2) to start the ninth, then Logan Forsythe sacrificed him to third before Gonzalez singled up the middle. Will Venable followed with a run-scoring single. Erik Hamren (1-0) retired pinch-hitter Miguel Tejada on a lineout to end the Giants three-run eighth for his rst major league win. Heath Bell nished for his 35th save in 39 opportunities. The reigning World Series champion Giants fell two games behind the first-place Diamondbacks in the NL West after Arizona won at Washington. Mat Latos didnt allow a hit until the fth inning, but the Padres bullpen couldnt hold a three-run lead. Recent call-up Hector Sanchez singled in the eighth for his rst major league hit and RBI, then Orlando Cabrera followed with a tying RBI single that chased Luke Gregerson. But pinch-hitter Carlos Beltran popped out to end the eighth a few hours after he was activated from the disabled list.

49ersHunter cant afford to rest


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SANTA CLARA Kendall Hunters phone wasnt blowing up with messages the night the rookie running back scored the 49ers rst touchdown of the preseason on a dazzling play in the third quarter. Outside of a brief chat with his mother shortly after the game, Hunter didnt receive many congratulatory calls or text messages at all. And she didnt see the game, she just saw the stats, Hunter said before practice Tuesday. I didnt talk to too many other people. Thats exactly how the 49ers fourth-round pick prefers it. With more than two weeks left before the start of the regular season, the last thing the soft-spoken Hunter wants to do is get comfortable. Pats on the back can wait until Sept. 3 when nal roster cuts are made. Until then the smallest player on San Franciscos roster wont relax even if many people are already penciling him as a key member of the 49ers backeld. Hes denitely a guy who brings his lunch

bucket to work, fellow running back Anthony Dixon said. Its a long season and if weve got a guy like Kendall who can help us, take some of the practice reps off us and help us in games, thats big because were going to Kendall Hunter need him. I just hope the coaches put it all in play. Listed at 5-foot-7 and 199 pounds, Hunter is third on San Franciscos depth chart behind oft-injured Frank Gore and Dixon. But the two-time All-American proved against the Raiders hes capable of handling just about anything the coaching staff throws his way. He rushed for 105 yards on nine carries and scored on a 53-yard touchdown run early in the third quarter against Oaklands secondteam defense. Hunter took the handoff from quarterback Colin Kaepernick, broke through the right side of the line without being touched and then sped past a tackle attempt by safety Jerome Boyd. He raced the rest of the way into the end zone. It was the 49ers rst touchdown of the sea-

son after being held to three points against New Orleans then getting only a eld goal in the rst half against Oakland. As a player I was taught that if youre going to do something, do it the hardest you can or dont do it at all, Hunter said. I mean, that was good but I just want to be out there to help the team any way I can. Whatever they need me to do, Im going to do. Anything. That includes sacricing his body to save the 49ers quarterbacks. Hunter, who has been playing with a metal plate in his right ankle since his junior year of high school, worked on his pass protection throughout training camp. But it didnt come to fruition until the second half Saturday when he upended a blitzing Oakland linebacker, allowing Kaepernick a few extra seconds to work. So while he may be dwarfed by his teammates in the running backs meeting room, Hunter nally measured up. Hes done considerably well, 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh said after his teams 17-3 win. (Running backs coach Tom Rathman) has him working on that quite a bit in practice and hes really done a good job.

It hasnt been a completely smooth transition from college to the NFL. Hunter played in a spread offense at Oklahoma State and had a pair of 1,500-yard seasons there but has been trying to learn the nuances of the West Coast offense Harbaugh is employing in San Francisco. Thats meant more running between the tackles and sweeps, something he didnt do a lot of in college. But like Hunters run against the Raiders, hes approached it at full speed. He struggles a little bit but you can tell that hes got the ght in him, Dixon said. When I saw him do what he did Saturday I wasnt surprised. I saw what he did in college a couple times so no, I wasnt surprised. Kendalls here early every day and he puts in the work. Notes: Harbaugh declined to say when hell name a starting quarterback for the regular season. I just dont have any pressure on myself, as I look at it, to name a starting quarterback in a timetable manner, Harbaugh said. ... The 49ers still arent sure if injured wide receiver Michael Crabtree (foot) will be healthy enough to play in the opener. Crabtree remains on the teams physically unable to perform list but is no longer wearing a protective boot.

New coach tries to return Raiders to old glory


By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND Early in Hue Jacksons rst training camp as Oakland Raiders head coach he staged movie night for his players. Instead of a Hollywood blockbuster, Jackson pulled out a historic lm that depicted the history of a once-proud franchise that has fallen on tough times. Former stars talked about what it meant to be a Raider and highlights were shown from the teams glory days of three Super Bowl titles in eight seasons. My job is to make sure these guys understand the history of the Raiders and we did that, Jackson said. We really talked about the tape that was put together. If you ask our players, theyd say it was fantastic. I mean there have been some great players that have played here and we need to uphold that standard. The recent editions of the Raiders have fallen far short of the standard set in the 1960s, 70s and early 80s when Al Davis built one of pro footballs best franchises. The Raiders have not had a winning record since 2002, losing 91 games in eight seasons for the leagues second worst mark over that span. Jackson hopes to turn back the clock by building a team that can dominate physically to get Oakland back to the playoffs after improving to 8-8 last season. That .500 record ended seven straight years of at least 11 losses and prompted former coach Tom Cable to proclaim were not losers anymore. That statement irked Davis and

falls far short of Jacksons goals. I expect to win here, he said. I want our players to expect to win and I want our fans to have an expectation that this organization is making a comeback to where it rightfully belongs. And 8-8 doesnt cut it for me. Im not interested in being 8-8. Im interested in being great. Jackson helped transform a lackluster Hue Jackson offense last season as coordinator. Behind a 1,000-yard rushing season from Darren McFadden, big plays from receiver-kick returner Jacoby Ford and improved play at quarterback from Jason Campbell, the Raiders more than doubled their scoring output from the previous year to nish sixth in the league with 410 points. Now Jackson tries to translate that improvement to the entire team. I dont know what the Raiders offense was before that, but when he got here we were scoring a lot of points last year, Campbell said. We were making plays, and the reason is because of his mentality. He brings that mentality of physical, relentless football and playing like a Raider. Thats what hes all about. The key to Oaklands success rests heavily on Campbells right arm. Given some rare stability with a second year in Jacksons system and a reunion with former offensive coordinator Al Saunders, Campbell is being counted on to take a big step forward from the up-and-

down quarterback he has been for his first six years. Campbell lost his starting job twice last season, but still managed to post the second-highest quarterback rating of his career. He has a rm hold on the job and the offense this season in a change evident to all around him. His pocket presence, his huddle presence, is denitely better than it used to be, said offensive lineman Stephon Heyer, Campbells teammate in Washington. It looks like hes more of a leader. Hes comfortable. I can see that now more so than ever. The Raiders believed so much in last years talent that they made few major additions in the abbreviated offseason. Despite losing a pair of Pro Bowlers in cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha and tight end Zach Miller, as well as their most consistent lineman in recent years, Robert Gallery, to free agency, the Raiders signed only one potential starter in tight end Kevin Boss. The one big change was at coach. Hue stresses just being a bully, being a big bully on the block and just being more physical than anybody in the AFC West, defensive tackle Tommy Kelly said. Thats what he wants us to be and thats what we got to be.

New teaching tool for coaches PRACTICE


Continued from page 11
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

USA Football has developed a course for coaches to teach the proper way to tackle, making it available on 12 instructional videos. The sports national governing body in the United States hopes football coaches learn from the videos how to improve tackling skills, increase player safety and limit helmetto-helmet contact, lessening the chance for injury, including concussions. It is the rst time youth football programs have been given such direction on a national level to teach tackling skills in increments. The videos, filmed at the Indianapolis Colts training facility, divide tackling into ve fundamentals: breakdown position, buzz, hit position, rip, and shoot. Drills are provided to teach each step, beginning in a non-contact environment and progressing to player-toplayer contact. Directing youth football teams to incrementally incorporate contact into their prac-

tices lessens the amount of incidental contact that players receive through their helmets, said Dr. Stanley Herring of USA Footballs Football and Wellness Committee and the NFLs Head, Neck and Spine Committee. This is a strong step forward for player safety in youth football that any youth sport should consider emulating. The program has been approved by USA Footballs Tackle Advisory Committee that includes coaches on the youth, high school, college and NFL level, along with a sport psychologist. The videos are now available at usafootball.com. The model also will be incorporated into USA Footballs online tackle certication course and into its training event curriculum for coaches and players in 2012. USA Football holds more than 80 football training events annually. As a committee member, it was important to me that we emphasize body position and leverage two components of a fundamental tackle for youth coaches, said Jim Mora,

who has coached the Falcons and Seahawks. Drills can be run at varying speeds, starting slowly when they are rst introduced and accelerated as players master skills and techniques. The video introduces contact in the following ways: Air contact: Players run a drill unopposed without contact. Bags contact: The drill is run against a bag or another soft-contact surface. Wrap contact: The drill is run between two players until the moment of contact; one player is predetermined the winner by the coach. Contact remains above the waist and players stay on their feet. Thud contact: The drill is run between two players until the moment of contact; no predetermined winner. Contact remains above the waist, players stay on their feet and a quick whistle ends the drill. Live-Action contact: The drill is run in game conditions and is the only time that players are taken to the ground.

Sports fans rocked by East Coast quake


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Cleveland Indians fans wondered if a special effects explosion had gone off at a nearby movie shoot. Spectators at a tennis tournament in Connecticut felt as though a truck had smashed into the stadium. Golfer Brendan Steele thought he was getting shaky over his putts. East Coast sports fans were rocked by some unexpected excitement Tuesday when a 5.8-magnitude earthquake centered in Virginia sent tremors from South Carolina to New England.

Play was stopped and the venue evacuated at the New Haven Open. The game went on as if nothing had happened in Cleveland, where the Indians beat the mariners, and at the Little League World Series. At the Indians game, where the press box shook for about 30 seconds, the Hammond family was celebrating son Liams 10th birthday with his rst game in Cleveland one hell never forget. I thought it was the wind, said Tim Hammond, Liams dad. I know the stadium is made to move, but I didnt know what was mov-

ing it. I was thinking maybe they blew something up on that movie set. Filming for The Avengers is taking place near the ballpark. A lot of people got up and were like, Were out of here, Hammond said. At the tennis tournament on Yales campus, 71year-old John Riccis rst thought was of the stage collapse at a concert in Indianapolis earlier this month. We didnt know it was an earthquake we just gured the stands were collapsing, he said.

The only drawback hes noticed is intangible a sense of team built from everyone struggling through two-a-days together. I think the quick turnaround helps you physically and mentally get prepared, said safety Markelle Martin, who had three sets of two-adays last week at Oklahoma State If (eliminating two-a-days is) what the NCAA would want to do, we cant argue with that, but I think really it helps us mentally to be prepared for the season. Among the BCS bowl participants, Ohio State and Oregon are at the high end with six scheduled two-a-days. Stanford, Connecticut and Wisconsin have ve. TCU and Oklahoma each have four, while Auburn and Arkansas have three apiece. While hes careful to monitor the physical toll the two-a-days have on players, interim Ohio State coach Luke Fickell said sometimes players nd it takes more energy to concentrate through a two-hour meeting than it does to go out there and practice for an hour and 45 minutes. I think at this age, you need to be on the eld to learn a lot more things, Fickell said. As you get older in the NFL and youre 21, 22, 23, 34 however old those guys are you can get a lot more out of a two- or three-hour meeting. Justin Blackmon, Oklahoma States Biletnikoff Award-winning receiver, said there is probably no right answer for whether two-adays are benecial across all of college football. Youre still going to have some good teams and youre still going to have some bad. Some teams are going to blame it, some are going to say it was good, Blackmon said. Its all about who you are.

was probably the most participation Ive seen in summer workouts, Hyndman said. Everyone is 100 percent competitive. Theyre taking pride in the game. All these guys, you can see they want to win. Of the 45 players on varsity, Hyndman said 18 are returning players. That group is led by senior receiver/defensive back Logan Soli and junior offensive lineman Damon Stansberry. Soli showed last year he is capable of making big plays on both sides of the ball, but Hyndman is reluctant to put too much on Solis plate. I dont want to put too much on him, Hyndman said. Hes a hard worker. He goes after every ball. He wants to win. Stansberry is moving positions this year, from fullback to offensive line. Hyndman said Stansberry has the right mindset: willing to do whatever is best for the team.

THE DAILY JOURNAL


The biggest competition right now is at the quarterback spot where Vince Garcia and Paeu Dauwe are battling for the starting role. Both are over six feet tall, if a little on thin side. Right now, Hyndman said Garcia appears to have the inside track. Garcia has the experience. He is far beyond (Dauwe) fundamentally, but Paeu is showing some promise, Hyndman said, adding Garcia was the starting quarterback on last years frosh-soph championship team. Its a big competition. Theyre both working hard to secure that starting spot, so its pretty fun to watch. If nothing else, Hyndman is hoping the hard work and dedication to the team will pay off for the program in the years to come. Hopefully when the season starts, if and when we become successful, it will build a foundation for our school, Hyndman said.

The ironic aspect of the losing is the fact the players in the program have experienced success in the past. The seniors on this years team won a frosh-soph championship, as did last years squad. Hyndman wants this years varsity squad to build on those memories, but not dwell on them. Last years varsity (season) is past. This years seniors need to put the past behind them, Hyndman said. The frosh-soph (players from last year), you can take that winning tradition, (but) you have to put it in the past, but dont forget the feeling.

I think he can (get the job done), Ballard said of Seaton. Hes a smart kid. He understands football. Hes the package weve been working on all summer. Seatons success, and that of the entire Half Moon Bay, will depend on the play in the trenches. On offense, the Cougar offensive line is inexperienced. The offensive and defensive lines will determine our season, Ballard said. Theyre really untested at this moment and young in terms of varsity playing time. Thats going to be the area were going to have to perform at and show that we can get the job done. Were undersized, but thats how its always been. So, with inexperience on the offensive side, does that mean the defense will have to pull more of this weight? Not necessarily says Ballard. One always plays off the other, he said.

Brett Gardner reached on an error by Sizemore at third base and Curtis Granderson walked to load the bases after Derek Jeter sacriced the runners over. An out later, Robinson Cano walked on what appeared to be strike 3 to make it 6-5. Swisher then sent a drive that Coco Crisp caught just in front of the wall to give Bailey his ninth save in nine chances since the All-Star break. Jeter had three hits, tying Rod Carew for 22nd place all-time with 3,053. But McCarthy stied the rest of a New York lineup that was again missing Alex Rodriguez.

Refreshing caprese salad


he same combination that makes pizza so irresistible mozzarella and tomatoes also makes a mean salad. And just like a classically delicious pizza, you dont need much beyond those two star ingredients to assemble a stunning salad, known in Italy as a caprese salad. In this case, I simply stacked slabs of tomato and fresh mozzarella, then drizzled them with a lemon vinaigrette and sprinkled them with fresh basil and lemon zest. To add a punch of tang to the salad, I added capers to the vinaigrette, as well as a sprinkle of them over the salad just before serving. Capers are the pickled

Burger King retires mascot The King


By Sarah Skidmore
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PORTLAND, Ore. The King is dead, but the burger lives on. Burger King Corp. on Friday said it is retiring The King mascot, a man with an oversized plastic head and creepy smile who in recent years has been shown in ads peeping into peoples windows and popping up next to them in bed. The move is an effort by the struggling fast food chain to boost slumping sales by focusing its marketing on the freshness of its food rather than the funny-factor of its ads. Its rolling out a new campaign on Saturday sans The King to tout its fresh ingredients and new products like its California Whopper, which has guacamole. We wont be seeing The King for a while, Burger King spokesman BJ Monzon said Friday. The new focus is a departure for Burger King, which long has targeted its ads to male teens who like to chomp its chargrilled burgers and gulp its milkshakes. The economic downturn has battered its core customer young males have been particularly hard hit by unemployment and Burger King is looking to boost declining sales by appealing to the mothers, families and others that rivals like McDonalds Corp. have successfully courted. I think its great they are doing something as opposed to just withering away, said Joel Cohen a restaurant marketing consultant. They are taking an approach that is like not that much different from what McDonalds is doing and growing up. The new focus comes as Burger King attempts to regain its edge. While competitors have grown by updating their offerings, Burger King largely stuck to its menu of burgers and fries. McDonalds, for instance, has worked to portray itself as a healthier, hip place to eat, offering wireless access in restaurants, updating decor and introducing smoothies, oatmeal and yogurt parfaits. And Subway has grown quickly by emphasizing fresh, quick and affordable food. Burger King also has faced competition from other burger chains, like Sonic, Carls Jr. and Five Guys Burgers and Fries. As a result, Burger King, which was once in a neck-andneck competition with McDonalds, has been eaten up by rivals. In 2010, the top three U.S. restaurant chains McDonalds, Subway and Starbucks all reported strong revenue gains, while fourth-seat Burger Kings revenue fell 2.5 percent. In the second quarter, Burger Kings net income fell more than 13 percent to $42.8 million. Its revenue fell 4 percent to $596.2 million. During the same quarter, McDonalds prot rose 15 percent to $1.4 billion and its revenue rise 16 percent to $6.9 billion. Whatever they are doing isnt working, so its time to do something different, said Bob Goldin, analyst at Chicagobased food consultancy Technomic. There is a sense of urgency to get back on their feet. That Burger King is looking to its mascot for change is not surprising. Other restaurant chains recently have begun to use their longtime mascots less or ditched them completely to freshen up the brand. Under scrutiny of its marketing to kids, McDonalds has moved away from its emphasis on Ronald McDonald, its clown mascot festooned in red wig and shoes. And the Wendys chain no longer plays up in ads its Wendy character, which has red hair and matching freckles.

Guinness counts on chilled reception for new lager


By Dan Gelston
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PHILADELPHIA Guinness is about to dip its dark hued brew into the cold end of the booze pool. In fact, listening to the brew master for Dublins most famous export (sorry, Bono) describe how to best taste the companys latest line goes down as smooth as shooting a pint of whiskey. Guinness Black Lager must best be enjoyed cold. Even on ice, said Guinness master brewer Fergal Murray. Hold it. Guinness on the rocks? Whats next, James Bond ordering cosmos? My goodness, whats up with my Guinness? Every image of a Guinness is about the seduction of the stout, from the slender black can that pops on the shelf to the beckoning curves in its signature glass, and the detailed ritual of the serve to get a frothy, oh-so-perfect pint. All sipped and chugged or used as a savory Guinness is making an attempt for a wider appeal in the crowded American beer market with landing space for a shot of Jameson at room the introduction of a lager. Americans spent $101 billion on beer last lager after serving the new brew in two temperature. Scratch that. Save the stouts for winter year, according to Paul Gatza, director of the test markets, the national rollout kicks off in Association. Diageo-owned time for football on Sept. 1. Guinness Black hibernation and crank the dial down inside Brewers Guinness is the third-largest imported beer in Lager is not available in Ireland, the compathe beer fridge. Guinness is making an attempt for a wider the U.S., but its numbers are dwarfed by nys home and one of the hardest-drinking appeal in the crowded American beer market generic giants Anheuser-Busch and countries in Europe. Is it a Guinness or is it not a Guinness? with the introduction of a lager. Guinness, MillerCoors. Guinness had 1.3 percent of the long known for its distinctive color and marketplace in the U.S. and shipped 2.66 Murray asked. It is a Guinness lager and its creamy head, wants to compete pint-to-pint million barrels in 2010, according to Beer going to be positioned against other lagers in with a clean, crisp beverage that only needs Marketers INSIGHTS, Inc, the leading the marketplace. That could be tough to swallow for the bikini-clad girls or a talking pooch as pitch- source of information about the U.S. beer devotees of the iconic stout, who make the man to truly scream, Were an American industry. Guinness is moving slowly with its new pilgrimage to the brewery in St. Jamess Gate beer!

in Ireland to bow their heads in reverence before theyre slumped in a stupor to a beer that dates back to the 1700s. Of course, trends change through the centuries. Guinness believes its latest beer with a suggested retail price of $8.49 for a six-pack helps the company keep up with an expanding marketplace. But will consumers buy it or see the company as pandering to American taste buds? It is, after all, a brand built on dark beer stouts, a drink that hasnt always enjoyed wide appeal among Americans who prefer to drink out of a 12ounce can. No, no, no, no, Murray said. Its in line with everything weve ever done in terms of getting great beers out there in the market. The reality is, Guinness isnt breaking tradition simply adding a new lineage. Still, it feels a bit strange. After all, the Guinness websites includes how-to steps for the perfect pour straight out of algebra class (glass tilted at 45 degrees, until it is three-quarters full). For the new stuff? Simply use the cheap bottle opener on your keychain and crack the cap. The only pour should be the one from the 11.2-ounce bottle straight into your mouth. The days of room temperature pints are long gone, Murray said. Perhaps the sudsy shift will settle easier in a super-sized country that likes a new twist on familiar products (thank you, deep-fried Twinkies!). Would Peter Grifn swap his Pawtucket Patriot Ale for a six pack of Guinness Black Lager? One mid-afternoon suds sipper, who prefers her beers golden, got a preview taste and enjoyed the newfound chill.

Kraft cutting U.S.coffee prices by about 6 percent


By Michelle Chapman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Kraft Foods Inc.will be lowering the prices for Maxwell House and Yuban brand coffee.

NEW YORK Kraft Foods Inc. is lowering coffee prices in the U.S. by about 6 percent, one week after J.M. Smucker Co. announced a similar reduction. Kraft said Tuesday that the price reduction covers its Maxwell House and Yuban brands and excludes Gevalia, Tassimo and the Maxwell House International line of specialty soluble beverages. The Kraft price cut translates to 20 cents per pound on roast and ground coffees and 2 cents per ounce on instant coffees. We evaluate the various market factors and make our pricing decisions when we feel its appropriate for the business, spokeswoman Bridget MacConnell said. Smuckers price cut, also by about 6 percent, primarily affects its Dunkin Donuts, Folgers and Folgers Gourmet Selections lines. Prices for coffee beans have soared in

recent years in part because of growing demand and harsh weather. Those rising prices, along with higher fuel and packaging costs, prompted companies such as Smucker, Kraft, Starbucks Corp., Peets Coffee and Tea Inc. and Green Mountain Coffee Roasters Inc. to increase the prices that they were charging their customers. Prices for the beans are starting to come down, allowing coffee makers to charge their customers less for roast, ground and instant coffee. Kraft, which is based in Northeld, Ill., is working on separating into two businesses. One would focus on international snack brands, and the other on its North American grocery business. The company reported earlier this month that its second-quarter earnings rose 4 percent and its revenue climbed 13 percent. Shares of Kraft, whose other brands include Oscar Meyer and Oreo, rose 12 cents to $33.67 in midday trading Tuesday.

Best pasta sauces are the least cooked


ou say tomato, they say pomodoro. And when they say it, they mean it. Thats because the Italians are champions of simple, classically delicious ways of using fresh tomatoes. And they should be; theyve been cultivating them for hundreds of years. One of the many basic ways they prepare garden-fresh tomatoes is in a pomodoro sauce made with basil and garlic tossed with pasta. This pasta is just that, noodles and tomatoes, a dish that embodies the core philosophy of Italian food letting a few perfectly ripe ingredients shine. I recently returned from a cooking expedition to Italy where I learned how to prepare pomodoro sauce from those who know best Italian mothers and grandmothers. One particular day sticks in my mind. I was getting ready to do what I always do smash garlic cloves by laying the at side of a knife on top of them and lightly whacking it with the palm of my hand. As I got ready to give the garlic a good slam, the Italian mama cooking with me, named Lucia, screamed No! so loud you could hear her in France. Then she explained that the garlic for the pomodoro sauce had to be sliced. I didnt know why until I tasted her pomodoro sauce. It blew me away. The sliced garlic, sauteed in extra-virgin olive oil to almost dark brown but not burned, imparted a taste explosion in my mouth that you just cant get from the usual ways of preparing and tossing garlic into a dish. So when you make this recipe, do not chop the garlic. Do not press the garlic. Do not smash or whack the garlic. And by all means, do not use that pre-diced stuff in the jar. If you do any of the above, you have performed an illegal operation. Go to jail. Do not pass go. Do not collect $200. Do take the time to nd fresh tomatoes, ripe ones, like from the vine. I know they may be only the stuff of lore in and around your community, but they do exist. And now is the perfect time to go out and search for them. As I do with all my Now Eat This! recipes, Ive cut way back on the calories and fat from the traditional 840-calorie-per-serving Italian version, but I guarantee youll get a real, full tomato avor in this 281-calorie

version. I also cut the fat by nearly two-thirds, from 17 grams per serving to just 6 grams. Any variety of tomato works in this recipe so long as they are very ripe. I prefer small tomatoes, such as cherry, pear or grape, because they can be tossed right in, skins and all. For larger tomatoes, peel them rst, then chop them. This recipe takes no more than 30 minutes to get on the table. The best sauce, I discovered after years of sauce-making, is the least cooked.

ROCCO DISPIRITO

PASTA POMODORO
Start to nish: 30 minutes Servings: 4 Salt 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, divided 6 cloves garlic, thinly sliced Pinch red pepper akes (peperoncino) 16 fresh basil leaves, torn into small pieces, divided 2 pints very ripe grape tomatoes (about 80 grape tomatoes) 8 ounces dry kamut spaghetti Ground black pepper, to taste 1 ounce Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, freshly grated, divided In a large pot, bring 6 quarts of water to a boil. Add 2 tablespoons of salt. In a large non-stick skillet over mediumlow, heat 1/2 tablespoon of the oil. Add the garlic slices and toast, stirring constantly, for 3 to 4 minutes, or until lightly browned. Watch closely so garlic doesnt burn. Increase the heat to medium, add the red pepper akes and half of the basil leaves. Cook for 30 seconds, then add the grape tomatoes. Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook until al dente according to package directions, usually about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile, toss the grape tomatoes in the pan and cook for about 5 minutes, or until they start to blister and the skins pop. Mash

Cooking tips
Dont stir or toss the pasta with tongs as they tend to break the noodles. If the noodles are not cooked enough to your liking,simply add a little more pasta water and cook
the tomatoes gently with a potato masher or fork to make a pulp, then turn off the heat. Season lightly with salt and black pepper. Drain the pasta, reserving 1/4 cup of the cooking water. Add the drained pasta and reserved pasta water to the tomato mixture. Increase the heat to medium-high. Add half of the cheese. Cook for about 2 minutes, or until the sauce begins to cling to the noodles, using a heat resistant rubber spatula to toss the pasta to coat evenly.

old-fashioned but has evolved over the years, he said. They will also bring in unusual items for customers special orders, like suckling pig and goat. The business success hasnt gone unnoticed they were awarded the Millbrae Business of the Year award for 2010. Another source of meat products is Los Primos Meat Market, with locations in Menlo Park and San Bruno. Elisia Guzman, 22, said her parents started the rst store 10 years ago which has today grown to include four locations. Guzmans father was a butcher in Mexico who had a dream of owning his own shop. Today, many family members work in the business and Guzman said they want customers to feel like family too. You get to experience the family, but [also] all the cultures, said Guzman, who started working in the business at 14. Its pretty much old school ... If we dont know how to do it you can tell us how you want it and well gure it out. Los Primos Meat Market is a grocery store, but the meat department takes front and center. They have items that are more distinctly Latino like chuletas ahumadas (smoked pork chops) and chorizo but Guzman said in a between the two, The King was creepy, Cohen said. There is a cool factor to the cow and there is a cool factor to Jack. They both come off with a wry sense of humor, which is appealing. Burger King has used The King mascot since 1955 when his image appeared on the sign at its rst store in Miami. Hes taken various forms since then, including going animated in ads and running with a crew of other food-themed royalty like Sir Shakes a Lot. This is not the rst time The King has gone on hiatus. The company had him step down in 1989 to let a Kids Club Gang have a try. He returned in 2004 when the company hired a weird way all their products are Latino in how theyre cut or prepared. The most popular item the market sells is arracheras, or skirt steak, but they offer more unique products as well like beef feet and pork neck bone. Theyve also had unusual orders like a request from a local high school for eyeballs to dissect in a class. The Menlo Park store also makes readyto-eat items like tamales and carnitas. Los Primos Meat Market is known for having lower prices than other places, Guzman said, but also for good quality. She compared the store to a person it will tell them what they need to do and change to please customers. The economy has made it harder for people to buy as much as they used to, Guzman said, and so they work with customers and hear what they need. Theyll take food stamps and even IOUs if they know the customer. A third option for buying meat in San Mateo County is one that may sound more familiar to customers: Draegers Market, rst begun in 1903, with two locations in Menlo Park and San Mateo. Vice President John Draeger said the philosophy he learned from his father was give customers what they want and give them the best. new advertising agency, Crispin Porter + Bogusky, which is known for its edgy work. Since then, The King had become a more central and decidedly creepy part of ads. The mascot showed up in a variety of odd scenarios in ads, including lying next to a man in bed. But as sales fell, the company looked in a new direction. Miguel Piedra, a spokesman for Burger King, based in Miami, said the decision to get rid of The King came as the company began looking at the business as a whole after it was acquired by investment rm 3G Capital last year. As part of that, Burger King switched ad agencies in July to mcgarrybowen. Gordon Bowen, chief creative ofcer at

Draegers meat department is unique because of how much they can do for customers, Draeger said. Some of the Draegers most popular products are loin cuts like beef tenderloin. Locations lend themselves to a more affluent clientele, which means Draegers can search out quality products. This year Draegers won a survey for best quality meats in the Bay Area Consumer Checkbook magazine, and the Menlo Park store has won the Almanac Readers Choice award for Meat Store several times. I want customers to feel theyre welcome, Draeger said. I want them to feel like if they have questions about the products there are people there that are knowledgeable and happy to answer questions. Draegers offers a variety of meat products and also some more unusual items like buffalo and venison. Stores have been making sausages on site for about 20 years. They can also get products for special customer orders, like duck eggs or alligator but those kinds of items arent mainstays of the department. The meat department is very responsive to changing times and tastes. When theres excitement for a new product theyll respond, Draeger said, but since meat is perishable they have to eliminate products that dont sell. mcgarrybowen, said the new ads celebrate good taste and the ingredients Burger King uses. Piedra said the company and agency decided to make the ads food-centric after nding that the reason people love its brand is because of the quality of its food. This is just the beginning of our journey a reintroduction of burger king brand to consumers, Piedra said. As for The King, Burger King said their mascot may not be banished from the kingdom forever. He may come back at in the future in a different form. In the meantime, the company will still carry paper crowns in stores.

Libyan rebels storm Gadhafis compound


By Ben Hubbard and Karin Laub
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

TRIPOLI, Libya Hundreds of Libyan rebels stormed Moammar Gadhas compound Tuesday, charging wildly through the symbolic heart of the crumbling regime as they killed loyalist troops, looted armories and knocked the head off a statue of the besieged dictator. But they found no sign of the man himself. The storming of Bab al-Aziziya, long the nexus of Gadhas power, marked the effective collapse of his 42-year-old regime. But with Gadha and his powerful sons still unaccounted for and gunbattles aring across the nervous city the ghters cannot declare victory. The rebel force entered the compound after ghting for ve hours with Gadha loyalists outside, using mortars, heavy machine guns and anti-aircraft guns. They beat and killed some of those who defended the compound and hauled away crates of weapons and trucks with guns mounted on the back in a frenzy of looting. Were looking for Gadha now. We have to nd him now, said Sohaib Nefati, a rebel sitting against a wall with a Kalashnikov rie. Abdel-Aziz Shaya, a 19-year-old rebel dressed in camouage with an rocket-propelled grenade slung over one shoulder and a Kalashnikov over another, said the rebels believe Gadha is inside the compound but hiding underground. Wasnt he the one who called us rats? Now he is the rat underground, he said. Shaya said he felt an explosion of joy to be standing inside Gadhas stronghold in the capital after a lightning-quick rebel advance. He had left the rebel-held western city of Misrata just two days earlier. I lost friends and relatives and now I can walk into Gadhas house, Shaya said. Many of my

Wasnt he the one who called us rats? Now he is the rat underground.
Abdel-Aziz Shaya, a 19-year-old rebel

friends have died and now all of that meant something. Associated Press reporters inside the compound said parts of it appeared to still be under control of government forces who were ring toward the rebels, making for an atmosphere of joyful celebration mixed with tension. The air was thick with smoke from the battles and the sound of crackling gunre was constant. Rebels chanted Allahu Akbar or God is Great and on loudspeakers they cried: Hamdullah, hamdullah or Thank God. As the ghters stormed in, they captured a guard at the gates and threw him to the ground, slamming rie butts into his back. A hostile crowd gathered around, punching and kicking him until one rebel stepped in, stood over him and kept the crowd at bay. Inside the walls, a few bodies of Gadha ghters one with a gaping head wound from a gunshot were sprawled on the ground. Several young men wrenched the head from a statue of Gadha and kicked it around. One lifted it above his head while his jubilant comrades danced and yelled around him. Fighters with long beards hugged each other and ashed the V for victory sign. Others carried injured rebels to ambulances. A ghter climbed atop the iconic statue of a huge golden st clenching a model of an American warplane and shot his machine gun in the air in celebration. The statue stands outside a building that was once Gadhas home, preserved with the pockmarks of an American bombing in 1986 as a symbol of his deance.

NATO bounces back in Libya,troubles remain


By Jamey Keaten and Slobodan Lekic
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PARIS While uncertainty prevails in Libya, the breakthrough that brought rebel forces to the heart of Tripoli shows rumors of NATOs demise may have been premature. The Atlantic alliance dismissed as having a dismal future by former U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates has proven a vital role in bringing Moammar Gadhafis regime to the brink of collapse. NATO was in need of a success, and it seems that in Libya it will get one, said Daniel Korski, a

European Council of Foreign Relations specialist. A day earlier, U.S. President Barack Obama said NATO had once more proven that it is the most capable alliance in the world. But analysts also say the Libya effort has laid bare challenges for NATO including internal policy disagreements at a time when many of its members are facing tight state budgets and wary public opinion about foreign wars. NATO declared on Tuesday that it remains in the ght to the end, as ghting erupted around Gadhas main military compound in the capital, hours after the stunning appearance by Libyan leaders son

and heir apparent to repel rebel claims he had been captured. The morale boost for Gadha loyalists and the ferocity of Tuesdays fighting raised the prospect of a protracted battle for Tripoli. But with rebels entrenched in the capital, many international leaders and diplomats are turning their attention to the era after his 42-year rule. Its vindication for NATO ... There were a lot of critics out there, said Nicholas R. Burns, the U.S. ambassador to NATO between 2001 and 2005, who now teaches at Harvards John F. Kennedy School of Government.

Turkey says it killed 100 Kurdish rebels in Iraq


By Suzan Fraser
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ANKARA, Turkey Turkeys military said Tuesday air strikes on suspected Kurdish rebel targets in northern Iraq this week have killed an estimated 90 to 100 guerrillas and warned that it would press ahead with offensives against the group both inside Turkey and across the border. The military also said in a statement posted on its website that than 80 separatist rebels were injured in six days of cross-border air raids that began Aug. 17, hours after eight

soldiers and a government-paid village guard were killed in an ambush by the Kurdistan Workers Party, or PKK, near the border with Iraq. According to initial information obtained, between 90 and 100 terrorists were rendered ineffective, more than 80 wounded terrorists were moved to hospitals or villages, and contact with a high number of terrorists was cut, the military said. Rendered ineffective is a term used by the military to refer to rebels killed. Iraqs north and domestic areas will be monitored for separatist terrorist activity and air and ground operations will continue, it said.

WASHINGTON The dramatic advance of Libyan rebels over the forces of longtime strongman Moammar Gadha offers vindication, at least for now, for President Barack Obamas decision to refrain from using U.S. troops on Libyan soil and to let NATO take the lead. But the chaotic scene on the streets of Tripoli on Tuesday illustrated the uncertain path to stability and the hazards that still face the White House. How Libya moves away from the current turmoil will present the next challenge for Obama and could determine how the public views not only his foreign policy, but in some measure the U.S. economy as well. Underscoring the volatility, Gadhas whereabouts remained a mystery, fighting between rebels and Gadha loyalists continued, and oil prices remained in ux. Still, the news for Obama could not have been much better. The Libyan street was euphoric, rebels overran Gadhafis main military compound and hope grew that over time the price of oil a contributor to dangerous economic lethargy would dip. The Libyan intervention demonstrates what the international community can achieve when we stand together as one, Obama said at his vacation retreat in Marthas

EU, U.S.ready to unfreeze assets


By David McHugh and Tarek El-Tablawy
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

FRANKFURT, Germany Europe and the United States were preparing Tuesday to unfreeze billions in frozen Libyan assets that will be crucial to supporting the country once Moammar Gadhas regime collapses, but the North African nations recovery will be neither easy nor rapid. Its valuable oil sector could take a year to restart and the economy badly needs reforms after being moved for decades by the whims of Gadha, whose personal rule was guided by a quirky socialist ideology, and by his cronies. As the battle raged on in the capital, Tripoli, the countrys rebel leaders eyed the tens of billions of dollars in Libyan money that governments around the world froze Vineyard, Mass. Obama was careful to emphasize that uncertainty remained and that Gadhas regime could still pose a threat. Obama telephoned French President Nicolas Sarkozy to talk about the situation in Libya, among other things. They agreed to continue to work with allies and partners

during the early days of the uprising. The money is the nations fortune and is expected to provide a capital cushion that other Middle Eastern countries that have deposed rulers this year, such as Egypt, dont have. The European Union said Tuesday it was preparing to unfreeze the Libyan money once the United Nations gives its approval. President Barack Obama indicated on Monday that he was ready to do the same. Even if it takes time to recover all of these assets, a small amount will help the interim government in the near term, Said Hirsh, Mideast economist for the London-based Capital Economics, said in a research note. He estimated Libyas frozen assets at around $110 billion, about 110 percent of the countrys GDP. to protect the people of Libya and to support a peaceful transition to democracy. The State Department also said it wants to give the Libyan opposition between $1 billion and $1.5 billion in frozen Gadhafi regime assets. The U.S. froze about $37 billion in regime holdings in the U.S., but most are in real estate or other property assets.

THE DAILY JOURNAL


jobless gures prompted him to vote against Hills bill. Coming from a community with unemployment over 20 percent and that has historically suffered from a lack of private investment and jobs, Im always concerned about the impacts of business closures on families and communities. My vote today does not reect my lack of concern about this issue but rather the importance of pushing for a broader enterprise zone reform agenda, Perez wrote to the Daily Journal in an email. AB 1278 represented a piecemeal approach, which Perez believes would undermine efforts to reform the enterprise zone program. I initiated the reform conversation more than a year ago and the negotiation includes a number of issues such as business relocation and the tighter targeting of business incentives. Some of the reform proposals are in my bills, AB 231 and AB 1411. I hope my actions today will induce labor and business to come back to the table, he continued in the email. The states current unemployment rate is 12 percent. VWR plans on terminating 150 workers in Brisbane and hiring a similar number of employees in Visalia. The state stands to lose roughly $500,000 since VWR could receive a $37,000 tax credit for each worker hired due to Visalias enterprise zone status. The company is Brisbanes biggest tax contributor, providing it with roughly 50 percent of its sales tax revenue. Speier previously called the move a hedge fund scheme by Madison Dearborn to maximize prots in the near term.

BILL
Continued from page 1
intended to lure companies from out of state and not meant to pit California cities within the state against each other in competition for potential tax revenue based on where a company is located. The move by VWR International will cost Brisbane roughly $2.1 million a year in tax revenue but save the company more than $1.5 million annually in sales tax breaks through the state. VWR has operated in Brisbane for more than 50 years but indicated it is not relocating to Visalia simply for the tax breaks but rather because it has outgrown its facilities. The company plans to close a distribution warehouse in San Dimas, as well. VWR has already broken ground on a 500,000-square-foot distribution center in Visalia scheduled to open sometime in 2012. The company reports annual sales in the billions and supplies Genentech, the University of California and other companies with medical supplies. VWR is owned by private equity rm Madison Dearborn Partners. The company will move to a location that falls under the Tulare Targeted Tax Area, one of 53 enterprise zones in the state. Tulare Countys unemployment rate is currently about 15.8 percent, well above the state average. The enterprise zone tax breaks are intended to lure companies from out of state to California, however, and not from within the state, a loophole in the law that must be closed, Hill said. But the bill failed to pass out of the Assembly Jobs Committee despite Hill assembling a cadre of labor leaders yesterday morning before the committee

hearing to praise the bills merits. The committee vote was 3-3 but the bill may be introduced again next year, Hill said. Language in the bill may also show up in another lawmakers omnibus bill, Hill said. Taxpayer dollars should not be used to reward companies for ring people in one city and hiring new employees elsewhere, Hill wrote in a statement yesterday. We should be focusing our limited taxpayer resources on true job creation, not job transferring. Hills legislation had support from U.S. Rep. Jackie Speier, D-San Mateo, and state Treasurer Bill Lockyer. It was opposed, however, by the California Association of Enterprise Zones and California Chamber of Commerce. Imperial County, however, ofcially opposed AB 1278. The county has the highest unemployment rate in the state at 30.8 percent, according to July gures by the state Employment Development Department. The unemployment rate in Riverside County is 15.1 percent for the same month. Perezs 80th Assembly District covers all of Imperial County and parts of Riverside County and the areas high Brian Levitt, a San Francisco resident who was circumcised as a child, said the bills assertion that the practice is benecial was biased and inaccurate. I stand before you as proof that the idea that circumcision definitely has positive bonding, health and sexual benets is a lie, he testied. Advocates have tried for years to advance circumcision bans at statehouses across the country with little success. In California, they turned their attention this year to local ballot measures. The issue drew national attention when backers collected more than 7,700 signatures to put a measure on the November ballot in San Francisco to outlaw the circumcision of most male children. The measure was later rejected by a judge. San Francisco resident Lloyd Schofield led the effort, which if approved would have made circumcision of boys younger than 18 a misdemeanor except in cases of medical necessity. That restriction would have been too extreme, said Assemblywoman Fiona Ma, D- San Francisco, co-author of the bill. The government and the police should not be in the middle of who should and should not be circumcised, she told the committee. What would have been the rst vote on the practice in a U.S. city became more controversial when the AntiDefamation League accused proponents of the ban of using anti-Semitic caricaon his home computer. San Mateo police also seized numerous items of electronic storage media for forensic analysis and has assumed the investigation into Lins latest criminal activity. The terms of his probation required Lin to register as a sex offender, to seek treatment and to stay away from minors, schools and adult bookstores. Lin pleaded no contest last September to the two charges in return for no more than 16 months in prison. He was given a lighter sentence, however, of just seven months jail time.

AB768. Passing the bill, he told the committee, would prevent a statewide patchwork of laws governing circumcision. Sen. Noreen Evans, the Santa Rosa Democrat who chairs the committee, said she struggled with the decision on whether to circumcise her son. There is a clear need for a statewide standard that would ensure other parents retain the right to make that choice, she said. The legislation comes against a national backdrop of efforts to limit male circumcision, which critics say is an unnecessary surgery to a healthy and defenseless child that can cause longlasting sexual and mental health problems. Supporters of male circumcision include researchers who say it can reduce the risk of sexually transmitted diseases and cancer, and many Jews and Muslims, for whom the practice is an important religious ritual. Local ballot measures on the subject interfere with the practice of medicine, said Ryan Spencer, a spokesman for the California Medical Association. The decision to perform male circumcision should be left up to the parents in consultation with their physician, wherever they reside, Spencer testied.

tures to support their cause. A group including Jewish and Muslim San Francisco residents sued in June to block the ballot measure. San Francisco Superior Court Judge Loretta Giorgi on July 28 ordered it struck from the ballot, ruling that California law says only the state, not cities, can regulate medical procedures. Giorgi also said it violated protections of religious freedom guaranteed in the U.S. Constitution. If approved by the full Legislature and signed into law, the bill would short-circuit future attempts to pass local laws or ballot initiatives limiting male circumcision on medical or any other basis. Gatto said that was necessary because Giorgis ruling could be overturned on appeal. In addition, he said, circumcision of Jewish children is often performed by a religious specialist known as a mohel (also pronounced MOY-el), who might arguably not be included among the healing arts practitioners covered by the state law on medical procedures. Schoeld said Tuesday that supporters of the San Francisco measure would decide by Friday whether they will appeal the court ruling. Gatto and Ma are pursuing a twothirds majority vote for the bill, which would allow the statewide standard to take effect immediately. The bill next goes to the full state Senate, where it could be considered as soon as next week. A search of the San Mateo home last year where he lived with his parents turned up a computer containing dozens of photographs of girls 7 to 10 years old involved in sex acts with men, according to prosecutors. Detectives also reported finding a small amount of psychedelic mushrooms. He is expected to be arraigned today on the new child pornography possession charges and violating probation. He remains in custody on a no-bail probation hold.
