Central Park Music Series in San Mateo draws large crowd
By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Familiar music coming from the
park fills downtown San Mateo on a
Thursday evening.
It isn’t a passing car testing the
limits of the basic, came-with-the-
car stereo system. Instead the indi-
vidual notes become clear. The
sound of a crowd joins the melodic
chorus and the numerous people in
the area make clear that park gather-

Foster City Mayor says school does

By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
San Mateo-Foster City officials
are hoping to access open space near
the Foster City Civic Center to build
a fourth elementary school now that
the recent development plan fell
through.
Growing enrollment coupled with
a desire to allow children to attend
neighborhood schools led officials
in the San Mateo-Foster City
Elementary School site to look for a
place to build a fourth elementary
school. Portions of a 15-acre site in
Foster City has long topped the dis-
trict’s list of possible homes for the
school. Until earlier this year, how-
ever, the site was wrapped up in a
development deal. That deal has
since fallen through, prompting the
district to create a simple plan: Ask
for access once again.

shows a respect for our staff,” said
Hunkapiller.
This agreement would account
for about $780,000 in savings which
will help with the district’s $2.85
million budget hole for the current
year. Eighteen teachers within the

“We have an obligation, really on
the behalf of the students. We’d be
remiss if we didn’t ask,” said
Trustee Julie Chan, the only Foster
City resident on the board.
But asking probably won’t get the
district access to the land.
“That 15 acres is essential life blood
revenue to the city,” said Mayor
Rick Wykoff.
Wykoff added he was unsure if
splitting up the property and selling
it off was the best way to financially
benefit the city.
“It’s the only real viable large par-
cel in the Bay Area that has the
amenities around it that the property
has around it,” said Wykoff.
There are no current development
offers, but Wykoff remains opti-
mistic that a mixed use opportunity
will come when the market
improves.

Dogs no longer chasing birds in Foster City
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Geese are breathing a bit easier in Foster
City as the dogs the city once hired to chase
them off are no longer on the job.
A contract to control the feathered creatures
expired at the end of June and the city has yet
to renew an agreement with Henry Losee and
his army of eight border collies to clear the
city’s parks of large families of Canada geese.
The city hired Losee to control the geese
because their waste is a nuisance to those
using the parks.
Losee stopped patroling the city in his
“goose control” car Tuesday, a day after the
City Council decided to wait on a decision to
renew the contract until September.
The Parks and Recreation Department was
advised by the council to find a less costly
way to control the geese.
The department had recommended the con-
tract be renewed with Losee to chase geese
out of seven parks and two school sites for
$32,400 a year. Losee has been working for
Foster City for five years to chase the geese
out of town and it represented he and his
wife’s biggest contract. The two own Losee’s
Goose Control in San Lorenzo.
Losee still has a contract in place with San
Mateo and works for some private companies
and apartment complexes in Foster City to
chase geese. He also does work in Redwood
Shores and at two cemeteries in Colma.
“I guess my dogs will have to get used to
eating less food,” Losee, 70, said jokingly
Wednesday.
It is time the city evaluate the effectiveness
of Losee and his dogs to get rid of the geese,
Vice Mayor Linda Koelling said.
“The Canada geese population is a wide-

spread problem and every effort to minimize
them in a humane way is being done,”
Koelling said. “The work being done by the
dogs has helped but we need to evaluate just
how much it is helping. We will revisit this
again.”
Losee calls his goose control efforts
“humane harassment.”
He had patroled parks along the waterway
in Foster City where the geese spend most of
the day eating grass and pooping.
The geese are so vast in number that Foster
City’s parks and schools are often completely
covered in bird droppings.
Mayor Rick Wykoff is looking to see what
BILL SILVERFARB/DAILY JOURNAL
alternatives the Parks and Recreation
Department comes up with to battle the prob-
lem and how much it will cost.
Before the city hired Losee, Parks and
Recreation employees would battle the birds
by throwing rakes at them.
The birds used to be migratory but the good
weather and abundance of food has caused
them to call Foster City — and many other
Peninsula cities — home.
Losee would start his day at the Vibe Teen
Center on Shell Boulevard driving his small
Scion XA, with a siren on top, along the
waterway looking for geese.

Teen bicyclist struck by car
A 17-year-old boy was injured Thursday morning when he
was struck by a car while riding his bicycle in Belmont,
police said.
Officers went to the 1000 block of Ralston Avenue on a
report of a crash involving a bicyclist at around 9:40 a.m.,
according to Belmont police.
The teenager was riding east when the driver of a car
parked at the curb pulled into traffic and struck him.
The boy, who was wearing a helmet at the time of the
crash, was taken to a hospital with moderate injuries, police
said.
Eastbound traffic on Ralston Avenue was diverted onto
adjacent streets for about 30 minutes while officers investi-
gated the crash.
The driver of the vehicle was not given a traffic citation.
Bay Area workers
highest paid, survey says
Workers in the Bay Area were the highest paid on average
in the nation last year, according to data released today by
the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
The data showed workers in the San Francisco, San Jose
and Oakland metropolitan area earned 20 percent more than
the national average in 2009, the agency said.
The survey included the nine-county Bay Area, plus Santa
Cruz and San Benito counties, in that category, according to
bureau economist Todd Johnson.
The data showed above-average wages in all of the
employment categories surveyed, but particularly among
construction jobs, service jobs, sales, office and administra-
tive jobs and professionals.
Workers in the Brownsville-Harlingen, Texas metropolitan
area on the U.S.-Mexico border were paid the least, earning
79 cents for every dollar earned by workers nationwide, the
agency said.
Bay Area workers also were the highest paid in 2008, earn-
ing 17 percent more than the national average, according to
Johnson.

J
ames Pollack, a 17-year-old student at
Burlingame High School in
Burlingame was one of 50 members of
the Student Advisory Board on Legislation
in Education (SABLE) which met for more
than three days in February in Sacramento.
SABLE is a statewide conference to provide
student input on issues of concern to the edu-
cation system directly to the state Senate and
Assembly committees on education.
This program, a product of the California
Association of Student Councils (CASC),
has been in existence for 11 years and is the
only opportunity for middle and high school
students from all across the state to speak
directly with the legislature to make effective
changes to the education code.
This year’s proposals covered a number of
varying topics. Among them were suggestions
to create a statewide system for student feed-
back to their teachers, a mandate to have a
student member on every local school board
and to expand on the education of students’
rights on campus. Another proposal suggested
increased efforts to regulate more standard
health classes; augmented efforts to label
allergens in foods
sold at school and
increased funding
to provide nurses
on every school.
The next proposal
detailed student
needs surrounding
drug and alcohol
abuse. It would
create a statewide
intervention based
volunteer mentor network for students with
drug and alcohol related issues. The final
issue addressed by the delegates was the
national Race to the Top program. They gave
a general approval of the program, though
they had a number of points of divergence on
which they gave alternative options, such as
the “turn-around” program for underachiev-
ing schools. They also suggested a “reverse
bill” so that if California were to not get the
RTTT funding, we could rescind the legisla-
tion and not be forced to immediately pay for
the changes.

proposals and CASC visit www.casc.net/sabe.

What can kids do to fight global warming?
They can influence their parents to make sig-
nificant changes, as shown by a pioneering
climate change program, Cool the Earth.
Launched by a mom in California just over
three years ago, this transformational program
has already been responsible for motivating
over 45,000 kids and their families to take
over 80,000 energy-saving actions to reduce
their carbon emissions — eliminating
approximately 50 million pounds of carbon
from the atmosphere — with positive envi-
ronmental benefits for the entire region.
Cool the Earth is currently funded to recruit
more schools for its program. Locally,
Sandpiper Elementary, Orion School,
Newcomer Academy, Redwood City
Middle School and Central Elementary par-
ticipate.
With a state of the art web-based toolkit —
at cooltheearth.org — the program supplies
volunteer program coordinators from
California to anywhere in the world with
everything they need to operate the program
at their school or youth group. “Cool the
Earth’s hope is to bring our program to every
school in the country,” said Carleen Cullen.
“Collectively, one action at a time, we can
have a lasting impact on the future.”
The Cool the Earth program uses a child-
driven model to inspire families to conserve.
This model, in which the family acts together
out of concern for the dangers of global
warming, has recently been cited as one of the
most effective methods to create positive
environmental change by The Center of
Excellence in Climate Change
Communication Research at George
Mason University.
“Global warming is such a complex and
overwhelming issue that most people feel
powerless to make a difference,” said Cullen.
“In contrast, families in our program see that
taking easy, low cost actions results in a
meaningful impact on the future of the plan-
et.”

struck at 2:29 p.m. and had a depth of 4.2 miles.
The quake was centered about three miles north-northwest of
Daly City and nine miles southwest of San Francisco City Hall,
according to the USGS.
The BART procedure for earthquakes is for trains to stop at the
next station following a quake, spokesman Linton Johnson said.
The trains wait five minutes at that station “to see if it was the
big one or a precursor to the big one,” and then resume moving
at half-speed while crews go out to inspect the tracks, Johnson
said. The procedure usually causes residual delays of about 10
minutes for about a half-hour following a minor quake like the
one, he said.

Ruth McAninch
Ruth McAninch, a longtime Bay Area
social editor and columnist, died at her
home on July 8, 2010 after a difficult
struggle with cancer.
She was 87. She is
survived by her hus-
band of 45 years,
Merl; daughters,
Joan Grossman,
Marcia Sandler and
Tracy McAninch-
Tusneem; six grand-
children; four great-
grandchildren; and,
sisters, Alice Tillem and Esther Schreier.
McAninch was preceded in death by her
first husband, Leon Rubin.
Raised in New York City, McAninch
attended The New School, focusing on
art and philosophy. Her career spanned
five decades, starting in advertising at
The New York Times, where she worked
for more than a decade, and led her to
several local Bay Area publications,
where she was a social editor with a
popular column that was published
weekly for more than 30 years.
Her dedication to the community and
volunteerism led her to serve in many
capacities for many organizations over
the years, including the Board of
Directors of the USO, the American
Kidney Foundation and many more. She
organized several city-wide events in
Foster City, for which she received sev-
eral mayoral proclamations. She was
also honored by several charities for
notable work to promote and support
them, including the American Cancer
Society and The Kidney Foundation,
though it was the pleasure of helping
others that compelled her.
She had an incredible zest for life and
was an avid traveler until recent years.
She visited every state in the United
States and countries spanning five conti-
nents, always delighted to return and
share her experiences.
A memorial website has been created
where people are welcome to read more

Teen,14,charged
with attempted murder
Prosecutors charged a 14-year-old
suspected gangmember with
attempted murder for the near-fatal
stabbing of a man last week, giving
him the dubious distinction of being
the second county juvenile that
young charged as an adult with com-
mitting a serious felony.
Jonathan Medina, of San Mateo, is
charged with premeditated murder,
assault, personally using a knife,
inflicting great bodily injury and act-
ing to benefit a street gang.
Prosecutors also charged Rogelio
Gastelum, 19, of San Mateo, in the
Thursday, July 15 attack that left one
man stabbed several times.
According to authorities, the 21-
year-old stabbing victim and friends
were confronted by the suspects and
four or five others near Third Avenue
and South Eldorado Street in San
Mateo. The aggressors reportedly
thought the victims were rival Sureño
gangmembers because one wore a
blue shirt. At one point, Medina
allegedly pulled a knife and stabbed
one man multiple times in the torso.
Broadway By the Bay
moving to Fox Theatre
Broadway By the Bay, the long-
time musical theater company being
forced from its current spot at the San
Mateo Performing Arts Center by
renovations, will move to the historic
Fox Theatre in downtown Redwood
City for its next season.
The Fox, which was dark since
December because of financial prob-
lems, was recently purchased by Eric
Lochtefeld and a group of investors
who bought the former movie house
with plans to restore it as a premier
music and performance destination.
Broadway by the Bay is its first
major booking. The company will
begin its 2011 season next April at
the Fox.
Patrons can expect alcohol in the
lobby — the performing arts center
was banned from such offerings
because it is adjacent to San Mateo
High School — and close proximity
to restaurants, parking and the train.
School District
eyes bond measure
Paying off an $80 million loan and
building a new continuation school
— thanks to a $100 million to $175
million bond measure that could go
before San Mateo Union High
School District voters in November
— could result in $1 million annual-
ly for academic causes.
Polling results presented to the
Board of Trustees Wednesday night
showed support for either a bond
measure or a parcel tax, leaving dis-
trict officials to debate which rev-
enue-generating ballot attempt would
be most beneficial to the San Mateo
Union High School District. Money
from a bond measure can’t directly
fund academic issues but paying off
large debt opens up funds currently
being used to make the payments,
between $1.2 million to $1.6 million
annually. Fixing the structural deficit
topped the board’s concern, however,
about retaining voter support for the
number one projects. A vote is need-
ed by Aug. 6 to put any measure on
the November ballot.
City workers take
pay,benefits cut
A small group of non-union
employees in San Carlos will take a 5
percent cut in pay and benefits, sav-
ing the city nearly $50,000 on top of
the group’s earlier agreement to give
back a 2.75 percent salary increase
scheduled for this month.
The Confidential Group — less
than a dozen workers like adminis-
trative and executive assistants who
are not in a union because they work
with managers who participate in
contract negotiations — agreed to the
concessions as part of a two-year
agreement.
Brown seeks rollback of pension benefits
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO — Democratic
gubernatorial candidate Jerry
Brown said pension benefits for
state employees should be rolled
back to contain rising costs in the
state retirement system.
Brown told the Los Angeles
Times on Thursday that he favors
increasing the retirement age for
new state employees while asking
current workers to contribute more
of their salaries toward their retire-
ment benefits.
His ideas echo key changes made
in contracts Republican Gov. Arnold
Schwarzenegger recently negotiated
with six labor unions as part of the

term pension reforms.

Random musings of an idle mind
W
hat if the Republicans
take Congress next
November?
Nothing will change much, actu-
ally, except the sweet taste and the
bragging rights for the victors.
Supposing they achieve a majori-
ty only in the House of
Representatives? Without control of
the U.S. Senate, they will go
nowhere in passing new legislation
or repealing any of the White
House victories of the past year-
and-half. Unless they are able to
reduce the Senate Democratic Party
seats to at least 40, they will, also,
go nowhere there as long as the
Democrats still hold at least 41
seats and are able to put into play
the party of no strategy that was so
successfully practiced by the
Republican minority in the Senate
during this term.
And, supposing they, then, get a
few democratic senators to join
them and get their hoped for legis-
lation through both houses of
Congress. The president is still a
Democrat and is able to adminis-
trate a veto. It is an almost certain-
ty they will not be able to muster
the two-thirds votes in both houses
to override a veto.
Moreover, it would be a Pyrrhic
victory that would put them on the
griddle of responsibility, as did the
Gingrich-led Republican
Congressional victories in 1994,
that had them in the catbird seat of
power, primarily responsible for
the government and mostly ren-
dered impotent against a democrat-
ic administration.
If I were advising that party,
since President Obama has already
almost achieved all of the major
legislation on his agenda, I would
recommend leaving the Congress
in control of the Democrats and the
White House and capitalize on all
the faux pas and economic setbacks
that, invariably, the party in power
falls heir to and pull out all of the
stops for a full fledged campaign in
the 2012 presidential elections.
But, who would ever expect the
current crop of hate-the-world con-
servatives of being that smart?
***
The new road to success in
modern America
I have absolutely nothing against
‘... Then again, I’m a
crotchety old-timer with an old fashioned
view of media responsibility to the citizenry.’
Bristol Palin and Levi Johnston,
personally, as they labor to cash in
with a television reality show about
their saga, but it is a damning com-
mentary upon the low state of
decency in American media.
Look and wonder about our
young today, who hope to succeed
by study and merit, and what they
must be thinking about these media
created financial successes. Neither
of these youngsters have con-
tributed one single constructive
thing to our society except to create
an out-of-wedlock child and get on
the cover of US Weekly and
undoubtedly, later, will make
People magazine and other check-
out counter rags. But, their finan-
cial success will really be a reflec-
tion of the success of her mother,
who is also a beneficiary of a coro-
nation by the media, flowing from
a chancy selection for a spot on a
national ticket.
That is how low the state of our
Fourth Estate and television news
has sunk, as they print more reams
of garbage and spend more time on
television upon such as Mel
Gibson, Britney Spears, Lindsay
Lohan, Brad and Angelina,
“American Idol,” “Dancing with
the Stars” and such, than educating
their readers and listeners about
critical social and economic issues.
But, then again, I’m a crotchety
old-timer with an old fashioned
view of media responsibility to the
citizenry.
***
Breaking the sound barrier
Several years ago, there was a
British movie called “Breaking the
Sound Barrier,” a fictional story
about pilots crashing and dying try-
ing to get through it, until someone
figured out that, after passing
through to the other side, one need-
ed to operate the controls in reverse
directions in order to accommodate
to the new sound environment.
Now, I don’t know whether that
was true, or not, but it got me to
OPINION
thinking about how acting in
reverse of the conventional and
expected human conduct had
already changed our world. For
example, acting in the conventional
pattern of the victors in exacting
revenge upon Germany for the first
World War had created the
Versailles Treaty directly responsi-
ble for the horrible economic con-
ditions exacted upon Germany that
led directly to the rise of Adolph
Hitler.
Yet, on the other hand, reacting
in the opposite fashion from the
conventional human revenge urges,
President Truman and Secretary of
State General George Marshall
brilliantly created a plan, not to
punish but to fund the physical and
economic recovery of the defeated
enemies that added two more to
our closest friends and allies in the
world, today.
Likewise, instead of exacting
revenge upon the European origin
whites in South Africa after the
horrible treatment of the native
blacks and his own painful impris-
onment at hard labor for 27 years,
Nelson Mandela eschewed revenge
and, as elected president, set up a
program of national reconciliation
that, unquestionably, has brought
the nation together into the 21st
Century.
How does that relate to today?
The conventional wisdom has been
to contract government spending
during economic crises and most
governments do that, especially
Japan late in the last century, to its
own detriment. But, many econo-
mists, examining the phenomenon,
argue, in our country, where the
lifeblood of the economy is con-
sumer driven, that is exactly the
wrong thing to do. The controls
should be thrown in reverse, as in
breaking the sound barrier. Money
must get back to the poor, the mid-
dle class and the unemployed oth-
erwise productive capacities go
idle, workers are let go and the
economic machinery of country
grinds to a halt, leaving a severe
drop in tax revenue and, stunts the
recovery needed to gradually
reduce the deficits.
But, because this goes against
conventional wisdom, doctrinaire
and conservative ideologues will,
certainly, fight that, as did
President Hoover 80 years ago,
with the same deleterious conse-
quences.
***
What a difference a day
makes!
After the rowdy hubbubs, attacks
on the president and the Democrats
in Congress, the fostering of fears
of incipient socialism, in a recent
poll, 61 percent of the respondents
now vote they don’t want the
health care reform bill repealed.
***
Dear Lord, Not again!
I dread the certain onslaught of
lying political propaganda that will
be filling the media during the
buildup to the November elections.
Both major parties are gearing up
to be spending multimillions of
dollars to sharpen their skills at
misrepresentations, fears and slan-
ders. Certainly much different from
the Simon-pure political system we
were taught about our country in
our high school civics classes.

Ostrich in the sands of time
Editor,
I am responding to Keith
Kreitman’s personal interest in me,
in the July 17 edition of the Daily
Journal. Although I am sure Keith
thinks his response is clever and
tart, let me say this, Keith: No, I
am not a teenager writing humor-
ous letters to you about your
columns. I am a concerned
American who wakes up each
morning wondering if your tired
line of thinking will be the final
nail in this country’s coffin. I have
written over 160 columns on the
subject. Humor toward people with
your “ideas” on budget constraint
and big government frighten mil-
lions like me. Perhaps you haven’t
had time to read the dire warning
Obama’s hand-picked vice-chair-
man of his bi-partisan and inde-
pendent economic council, Erskine
Bowel, made on June 30. This is
not some “on-the-fence” politician.
He was Bill Clinton’s chief of staff
at the White House and a major
player in the Democratic party. He
essentially reported, in shocking
candidness, that the federal govern-
ment must curtail spending and
downsize massive entitlements. If
not, he said, we will “go broke,”
have a “predictable crisis,” be on
“auto pilot to destroy us from with-
in” and welcome the “disaster that
lies ahead.” You can call me a
“teenager,” Keith. I think I’ll call
you and your ideas an “Ostrich in
the sands of time!” Please try to

In defense of Kreitman
Editor,
Although I joined the Silicon
Valley phenomenon in Palo Alto
about 50 years ago, I only discov-
ered Keith Kreitman a couple of
years ago — my loss.
I treasure his memories, but more
importantly, I respect the perspec-
tive and the flavor of his political
views that were molded by his life-
time experience — and his superb
intellect.
I am disturbed, however, at the
vitriol heaped on him in the letters
section recently.
Disagree, sure, but the loud,
ignorant criticism of him is a bit
much.

Stocks end week up
By Stephen Bernard
1,187.70 THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Investors bought
stocks again on the latest reassuring
news about the economy. This time, it
was about European banks.
European regulators, who issued the
results of what are called “stress tests”
on the banks, said Friday that only a
handful would struggle if the continent’s
economy weakens. That helped send the
Dow Jones industrial average up more
than 100 points, which gave the index a
two-day gain of more than 300.
The latest second-quarter earnings
reports also convinced investors that the
economic recovery is proceeding. So did
announcements that General Electric
Co. is raising its dividend and reports
that French drug maker Sanofi-Aventis is
interested in buying Genzyme Corp.
Investors were initially cautious about
the stress tests, which measure how well
banks would fare if government debt
problems and the region’s economy
worsened. Europe’s debt issues have
sent stocks falling worldwide since April
amid concerns they could slow the glob-
al economic recovery.
Ford reaping solid profits
By Dee-Ann Durbin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DEARBORN, Mich. — Four years
ago, Ford mortgaged everything down to
the blue oval logo to save itself. Now,
even as Americans remain skittish about
the economy, it’s reaping big rewards
and stealing business from stumbling
rivals.
Ford said Friday that it made $2.6 bil-
lion from April through June, its fifth
straight quarterly profit. The company,
which reported record losses in 2008,
now predicts it will end 2011 with more
cash than debt.
With its two longtime Detroit rivals
still finding their way after spending
time in bankruptcy last year, Ford, which

Pay czar will not fight banks on $1.6B in exec.pay
By Daniel Wagner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — For all his tough
talk about excessive pay for bankers, the
Obama administration’s pay czar let the
executives go without a fight.
Kenneth Feinberg announced Friday
that he would not try to recoup $1.6 bil-
lion in compensation given to top execu-
tives at bailed-out banks because he
thought shaming them was punishment
enough.
His decision to go easy on 17 banks
that made “ill-advised” payments to
their executives is likely to fuel concerns
about how he will oversee the $20 bil-
lion oil spill compensation fund created
by BP.
Verizon posts 2Q loss on
costs of employee buyout
NEW YORK — Verizon
Communications Inc. on Friday said it
lost $198 million in the second quarter
due to a buyout for 11,000 workers.
Excluding the severance costs and
other items, earnings beat Wall Street
expectations while revenue was slightly
lower than analysts had expected. CFO
John Killian projected earnings for the
rest of year that would be roughly in line
with analyst expectations.
Its shares rose $1.09, or 4 percent, to

There were some concerns in the mar-
ket that the tests might not have been
rigorous enough. Because the results
were issued after the close of trading in
Europe, it won’t be known until Monday
how investors on the continent react.
And, if they react badly, if that will
prompt U.S. investors to sell.
The tests showed that just seven of 91
European banks tested would fail. The
European Union said the results should
put to rest questions about the health of
the continent’s financial sector.
Financial stocks, which had struggled
early in the day, started to climb after the
results were released at midday.
Brian Peardon, a wealth adviser at
Harrison Financial Group, said there
could be an initial, “gut” reaction to the
results based on the headlines alone, but
the full impact on the market won’t
come until next week because there is so
much information to sort through.
“It will take the weekend to digest
whether they’re good or bad,” Peardon
said.
Some analysts were skeptical because
there was little known about the criteria

President and CEO Alan Mulally said
the company is ahead of where he
thought it would be in its turnaround. It
now sells the most popular pickup truck
in the U.S., the F-Series, and the most
popular crossover SUV, the Escape.
“Our performance this year gives us
great confidence going forward,” he
said.
In the past year, Ford has gained a big-
ger share of the American market, the
equivalent of about 154,000 cars and
trucks. Rivals Toyota, General Motors
and Chrysler have all lost ground.
Toyota stumbled this year because of
safety-related recalls. GM and
Chrysler’s precarious financial positions
had some people shying away from their
cars.

or turn the other cheek,” Feinberg said

question is: At what point are you piling
on and going beyond what is warrant-
ed?”
He could not force the banks to repay
the money, but the law instructed him to
negotiate with banks to return money if
he determined that the pay packages
were “contrary to the public interest” —
language that he opted not to use.
Still, his leniency is a far cry from
the bravado he displayed in the
months leading up to his final act as
pay czar. In February, he spoke with

Wednesday, Newkirk will be in Sacramento

Newkirk will compete in the pentathlon —
events include the 80-meter hurdles, 800-

— in the girls’ midget division (athletes born
in 1998-99). Newkirk can hardly wait.
“I’m really, really excited,” she said. “I will

my best and not be really disappointed if I
don’t win because this is my first year (of
competing in the event).”
Indeed, the amazing part of Newkirk quali-

recently started training in January with Team
Onalysis, a club track team based in San
Francisco. But like most things she’s under-

event is the 100 — Newkirk’s best time in the
100 is 13.8 seconds — she’ll be doing the pen-
tathlon to take advantage of her variety of
skills.
“My coach (Otis Campbell) said I was good
enough to do the pentathlon, so he put me in
it,” said Newkirk, who qualified for the Junior
Olympics after finishing third in the pen-
tathlon at a meet in Modesto last month.
Newkirk’s PRs (personal records) in each of
the events in the pentathlon include 15 sec-

Buehrle (9-8) was nearly flawless through

That’s an encouraging sign for Chicago,

Congressman: Stop worrying about sports
By Jim Abrams
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — House
Democrats and Republicans have put
aside their differences this year to
honor the likes of golfer Phil
Mickelson, the Chicago Blackhawks
hockey team, NASCAR driver Jimmie
Johnson and the Penn State women’s
volleyball team.
But when it came time this week to
memorialize the start of the 142nd
season of the Saratoga race course in
New York, one freshman lawmaker
decided he’d had enough.
“It’s an absolute embarrassment,”
said Rep. Jason Chaffetz of Utah,
announcing on the House floor a vow
to vote against all future sports resolu-
tions.
He worried that there were kids in
the visitors’ gallery who would go
back home and, asked whether
Congress was talking about war or

debt, reply: “Oh
no, they were
honoring a race
course.”
“It’s terribly
f r u s t r a t i n g ,”
Chaffetz said.
The freshman
Republican did
Jason Chaffetz appear to win a
few converts: The
bill passed by a mere 396-14, a high
number of “no” votes for the kind of
commemorative resolutions that often
pass unanimously.
Every week the House spends a
couple of days churning out such non-
controversial bills. Beyond honoring
sports achievements, they name post
offices, praise armed service mem-
bers, mourn distinguished people
who’ve died and recognize historic
anniversaries. This year the House has
come together to support national pol-
linator week, national dairy month and
national train day.
SPORTS
Chaffetz, in an interview, said he’s
got nothing against recognizing
worthwhile causes such as breast can-
cer awareness, “but there are too many
of them and they’re just too frivolous.”
He said he drew the line at sports bills
because athletes already get “more
than their fair share of accolades.”
Chaffetz gained attention earlier this
year when he confronted President
Barack Obama at a Republican retreat
in Baltimore, accusing Obama of
breaking promises to block lobbyists
from administration jobs and get rid of
special project spending.
He sees the resolutions as proof that
Democrats are just filling time
because of their inability to tackle the
larger issues facing the nation.
Democrat Jason Altmire of
Pennsylvania, who voted against the
race track bill, had a more benign
interpretation, saying these minor bills
are a way to get lawmakers to the
House floor so they can talk with one
another and their party leaders.
Still, he said, “They can get out of
hand.”
He noted a vote last year commem-
orating the 2560th anniversary of the
birth of Confucius. He said his person-
al rule was to vote only for sports res-
olutions honoring teams that had actu-
ally won a championship.
Chaffetz drew a rebuke from the
Democrat managing the race track
bill, Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton of
the District of Columbia. “It ill
behooves the other side to trivialize a
bill by a member,” she said.
And she recalled that Chaffetz had
co-sponsored a resolution commend-
ing the Real Salt Lake Soccer Club —
from his home state of Utah — for
winning the 2009 Major League
Soccer Cup.
Chaffetz acknowledged backing
sports resolutions before realizing they
were a waste of time. As a new law-
maker, he said, “I made some mis-
takes.”
Weekend • July 24-25, 2010 13
Chaffetz and Altmire agree that the
House should look for a better way to
pay tribute to lawmakers’ hometown
sports heroes, such as having a big bill
at the end of the year for all the sports
resolutions.
The Senate also passes hundreds of
such minor resolutions every year, but

The House procedure known as the
“suspension calendar” that is now
used to quickly debate and approve
non-controversial matters such as post
office namings dates back to at least
1822. House historian Fred Beuttler
noted that in 1978 the House honored
Bob Hope on his 75th birthday with
both a resolution and a rendition of
“Happy Birthday.”
But Beuttler said he was surprised
to find that it’s only been about a
dozen years since congratulatory reso-
lutions, which in the past concentrated
on praising foreign countries, took to
praising athletes.

for agent probe
By John Zenor
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HOOVER, Ala. — Tennessee coach Derek
Dooley and Auburn’s Gene Chizik both say
the onus isn’t just on agents to follow the
rules, college athletes know the difference
between right and wrong.
“A lot of this has got to go back to the
young guy,” Chizik said Friday. “He’s got to
have an allegiance to his school. He’s got to
have an allegiance to his teammates. He’s got
to have an allegiance to his coaches and to his
university. The bottom line is, I think every-
body probably does a really good job of trying
to educate their kids.
“If they know right from wrong and they
choose to do wrong, then they don’t really
have an allegiance to the people that I just
mentioned. They know right from wrong.”
It was a slightly different message from the
first two days of the Southeastern Conference
media days, when coaches were on the attack
against unscrupulous sports agents.
Investigations are ongoing at Alabama,
Georgia, South Carolina and Florida for
alleged improper contact, along with North
Carolina. The rash of issues led Crimson Tide
coach Nick Saban to liken the actions of those
rogue agents to the behavior of a pimp.
Dooley and Chizik both said the athletes are
willing participants.
the punishing artificial turf in old Olympic
Stadium, Dawson’s knees took a beating. They
needed to be drained regularly because of
swelling, and he decided it was time for a
change when he was asked to take a pay cut.
“I was a free agent and I didn’t really know
what was going to happen,” Dawson said.
“The decision that my agent and I made was
there really isn’t going to be offers from teams
and we’re just going to have to make an offer
that won’t be turned down. We felt the only
way a team would listen was if we just gave
them a contract and let them fill in the blanks.”
Chicago Cubs general manager Dallas
Green was willing to do that and ended up
pulling off one of the great deals in modern
baseball. When Dawson offered him a blank
one-year deal, Green filled in the numbers:
$500,000 for the season, an extra $150,000 if
he stayed off the disabled list before the All-
Star break, and another $50,000 for making
the All-Star team.
That was even less than Montreal had
offered, but Dawson felt it was “more about
pride and principle” and accepted. He
responded by hitting 49 home runs, driving in
137 runs, and winning a Gold Glove at his new
position — right field on the soft natural grass
of Wrigley Field.
Dawson beat Cardinals shortstop Ozzie
Smith for MVP honors that year to become the
first member of a last-place team to win the
award and also led the NL in total bases with a
career-high 353.
“Montreal was a platform, but Chicago
probably catapulted me to that status to be able
to play another six years and play on a natural
playing surface,” said Dawson, who had 438
homers, 2,774 hits, 1,591 RBIs and 314 stolen
bases in his career. “That kind of rejuvenated
my career. It got me to the point where the
numbers maybe were good enough to get in.”
Dawson spent another five productive sea-
sons with the Cubs, helping them to the NL
East title in 1989. He was also known for a
strong throwing arm, notching 10 or more
assists a season 16 times, including a high of
17 in 1978 and 1979, and finishing his 21-year
career with 157.
“I didn’t want offense to overshadow
defense,” said Dawson, whose was born in
Miami and got his nickname at age 9 from an
uncle who let him work out with a senior
men’s team and marveled at the aggressive
way he approached the game. “Eight Gold
Gloves are what stand out more so for me. I
always felt that you could win a ballgame with
a play late in the game or early in the game just
the same way you could win a game in the
ninth inning with a key hit.”
Dawson then played two years for the
Boston Red Sox, winning the 1994 Hutch
Award for baseball spirit and competitive
drive, before finishing his career with a two-
year stint on the Florida Marlins.
Dawson will be inducted with a manager he
admired from afar. Just the 19th major league
skipper to make the Hall of Fame, Herzog was
elected in December by the Veterans
Committee.
Born in New Athens, Ill., a town of about
1,400, Herzog gravitated toward baseball as a
Senators.
In eight seasons as a first baseman and out-
fielder, Herzog batted .254 with 25 homers,
172 RBIs, 213 runs, 60 doubles, 20 triples, and
13 stolen bases in 634 games with
Washington, Baltimore, Kansas City and
Detroit.
After his playing career ended in 1963,
Herzog held just about every job imaginable in
baseball — player, scout, general manager,
coach, farm system director.
It was as a manager that Herzog made his
lasting mark. He did it for 18 seasons, 11 with
the St. Louis Cardinals after stints in Texas,
California and Kansas City. He guided the
Royals to three consecutive playoff appear-
ances in the 1970s and took the Cardinals to
the 1982 World Series title — just two years
after he was hired. The Cards also made World
Series appearances in 1985 and 1987 under
Herzog, who finished his managing career in
1990 with a record of 1,279-1,123, a .532 win-
ning percentage.
Managing in an era with several artificial
turf fields and distant fences, Herzog’s teams
played the game in a classic manner:
“Whiteyball” won games with pitching, speed,
and defense — not home runs.
“With the 1985 (Cardinals) team, we stole
something like 310 bases and were thrown out
about 67 times,” Herzog said. “We had to steal
third because they played us so shallow with
two outs because we couldn’t hit home runs.
Jack Clark was the only guy I had that could
hit a homer. I thought if I could keep my team
from allowing over 100 home runs and we
could hit 60 that we’d have a chance to win.

love nothing more than to set personal bests in all of her events
— “Getting PRs when you don’t expect it is unbelievable,” she
said — but Newkirk won’t be disappointed if she doesn’t get a
arena.
Remember, she’s wise beyond her years. It’s no accident
Newkirk looks to be a future star in the sport. She has rich ath-
letic bloodlines; her mom, Teleza, ran track for Bowdoin
College in Maine. Jada Newkirk said she’s a third cousin of
Bryan Clay, the reigning Olympic champion in the men’s
decathlon. Newkirk said she’s always had a passion to run.
From kindergarten on, Newkirk never passed up a chance to
race someone during recess or lunch break. She even bamboo-
zled some boys into racing her, saying things like “Come on,
I’ll go your pace.” Then she went out and dusted some of them.
“I just love racing people,” she said. “I love running because
it’s so much fun. It makes me happy.”
From the time she was 5, Newkirk asked her mom to put her
on a track team.
“I bugged her all the time,” she said proudly.
But what really got Newkirk’s juices flowing was watching
the 2008 Beijing Olympics. She watched a profile on one of the
athletes and got hooked. After plenty of research and inter-
viewing coaches, Teleza thought Team Onalysis would provide
a rich and stimulating environment in which her daughter could
excel — not just athletically but mentally, too.
“They’re not just focused on winning, but technique and how
Jada Newkirk’s track and field idols include Jackie Joyner-
Kersee, Marion Jones and Allyson Felix. In addition to Team
Onalysis, Newkirk runs on her school’s track and field and
cross-country teams. If that wasn’t enough, Newkirk stays busy
competing in pageants and doing volunteer service. In fact,
Newkirk will be in Santa Clara a day after the Junior Olympics
competing in the Miss San Mateo Preteen Pageant.
Newkirk, who is a straight-A student, receives equal enjoy-
ment from track and field and pageants, but she also likes to put
a smile on people’s faces. She does volunteer work at the
Sunrise Senior Living facility in San Mateo. Newkirk spends
plenty of time reading, playing games and talking with some of
the seniors at the center, and even brings them ice cream, too.
As for her future plans, Newkirk has already got some big
goals in mind. She wants to win a pageant at the national level,
develop into a track and field standout in high school, attend
Stanford or an all-black university and become a future
Olympic champion. Oh yeah, after that Newkirk plans on purs-
ing a career in sports broadcasting.
It’s a good thing for current sports writers all across the
nation that Newkirk doesn’t plan on working for a newspaper
— yet.
“But I do like reading a lot,” she said.

Armed men rob
Stephen Jackson’s home
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Armed men broke
into the home of Charlotte Bobcats player
Stephen Jackson, holding his wife at gunpoint
before locking her in a bathroom, police said.
Three men broke into the home in a gated
community of two dozen

around 2:45 a.m.

Jackson was in Texas for
a basketball camp and his

it “flawed” because baseball will collect only
postgame blood samples.
“It wouldn’t take much of an IQ for a player to
circumvent this proposed HGH testing proce-
dure,” he wrote in an e-mail to The Associated
Press. “A baseball player could possibly inject
HGH as soon as leaving a ballpark and test nega-
tive from a blood sample collected postgame the
following day. HGH injections are routinely done
at night before bed, so a morning blood sample
would be the target. The available test for HGH
requires a random blood collection protocol to be
considered anything more than a PR move by
MLB.”
Rob Manfred, baseball’s executive vice presi-
dent of labor relations, did not return a telephone
call seeking comment.
Gary Wadler, who leads the World Anti-Doping
Agency committee that determines the banned-
substances list, said any test is better than none.
Plus, he said HGH likely will be detected by it.
“It’s not the kind of drug you take once and now
you get tested weeks later, it’s gone,” he said.
“Sure, it will be gone. But that’s not how you use
it. You use it, you basically take it every day. So the
detection window becomes less important in
something you take on a regular basis.”
And he argues testing will make athletes think
harder about using.

them graduate. It makes life easier all the way
around.
But the No. 1 priority for those at Saban’s
level is to win, and make plenty of money
doing it. No one should have any illusions
about that. At the very top of Division I foot-

who run the Bowl Championship Series, the
university presidents, coaches, athletic direc-

them are getting paid except for the kids.
To be fair, the kids are plenty culpable.
They know the rules, and the overwhelming
majority abide by them. On top of that, every
big-time athletic program has at least one full-
time compliance officer, and some employ as
many as seven or eight. No one is forcing
them to go to parties, drive cars they can’t
afford or take envelopes stuffed with cash.
And Saban is right in one important way
about the greaseball agents and their runners.
They know the temptations they’re dangling

Everyone hates agents — even scrupulous
agents — unless they have one. The problem
with making unscrupulous agents the villains
in this drama is that just like the kids they pick
off, they’re only the low-hanging fruit.
Considering the way college football is struc-

When asked about how best to go about

Jay Roach
specializes
in whimsy
By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Jay Roach’s education as a
director of comedies came not in college or
film school, but in self-imposed study shortly
before making “Austin Powers.”
Having studied prelaw as an undergrad at
Stanford and mostly struggled for a decade as
a screenwriter and cinematographer after film
school at USC, Roach’s path to becoming one
of the top comedy directors in Hollywood was
far from assured.
Having hit it off with Roach at a dinner
party, Mike Myers insisted Roach — despite
his little notable experience — should direct
the film.
To cram on comedy, Roach studied silent
films, taking notes on movement and physical
choreography. He gravitated toward a “Woody
Allen form of farce” and character-based films
by Hal Ashby such as “Harold and Maude”
and “Being There.” He found a taste for
French comedy, such as “La Cage Aux
Folles.”
Roach’s homework has served him well. He
has since directed all three “Austin Powers”
movies, “Meet the Parents” and its first sequel,
“Meet the Fockers.” Collectively, his come-
dies have grossed nearly $1 billion, and that’s
not counting those he’s produced, including
“Borat” and “Bruno.”
He has made farce a speciality by giving
actors room to craft absurd, heightened situa-
tions that Roach enjoys stretching toward
calamity — like slow-motion train wrecks.
“I love anxiety as a driving energy for com-
edy,” says Roach during a recent interview
over coffee. “That gap between whatever you
make up for yourself and reality is where
almost every moment in comedy comes from.”
Roach’s latest is “Dinner for Schmucks,”
which opens July 30 and is roughly based on
the 1998 French film “The Dinner Game.” It
stars Paul Rudd as Tim, an ambitious busi-
nessman whose boss invites him to a “dinner
for idiots,” where everyone is expected to
bring a particularly outrageous fool as a guest.
He finds his date in the delusional but earnest
Barry (Steve Carell), who proceeds to acci-
dentally ruin almost everything in Tim’s life.
It’s a dark premise, but Roach keeps the
tone light and good-natured, with things
enlivened by appearances by Jemaine Clement
(“Flight of the Conchords”) as an erotically
charged artist and Zach Galifianakis (“The
Hangover”) as an overly confident IRS agent.
“‘Meet the Parents’ and ‘Austin Powers’ are
both movies I watched several times before I
really did a lot of comedy,” says Clement.
“When you love films like that, I feel kind of
indebted to those people even not really know-

DAILY JOURNAL SENIOR CORRESPONDENT
“Evolution of a Royal Vision: The Birth of Meissen
Porcelain,” at the San Francisco Airport International
Terminal Museum, showcases an outstanding collection of
18th century Meissen, Chinese and Japanese porcelain,
many of which are from the royal collection. This exhibition
coincides with the 300th anniversary of the Meissen
Manufactory.
Developed during the Tang Dynasty (617–906) in China,
porcelain was first introduced to Europe in the fourteenth
century. Europeans greatly admired the luxury item for its
beauty, durability, translucence and delicate appearance.
Trade between China and Europe increased during the
1600s, and porcelain — coined Europe’s “white gold” —
became highly coveted among the aristocracy. The proper
clay combinations and firing temperatures required for
“true” or hard-paste porcelain remained a puzzle to
Europeans. Although attempts were made for decades, no
true porcelain emerged from European kilns. As late as
1700, porcelain could only be obtained from China and
Japan.
Unlike earthenware or stoneware, porcelain is fired at
extremely high temperatures that fuse the body and glaze,
creating a glass-like surface. Ehrenfried Walther von
Tschirnhaus (1651–1708) and Johann Friedrich Böttger
(1682–1719), the former a respected scientist, the latter an
alchemist, worked together in Dresden to discover the
arcanum: The secret to making porcelain. In 1709, shortly
after Tschirnhaus’s death, Böttger achieved success and
showed his first experimental pieces to Augustus the strong,
elector of Saxony and King of Poland. This led the king to
establish a manufactory just outside Dresden in Meissen in
1710 — the first establishment to produce hard-paste porce-
lain in all of Europe.
The artists at Meissen produced an astounding variety of
white porcelain objects of the highest quality. Few forms
and decorative treatments remained unexplored in this
feverish burst of creativity. Artists copied vessel shapes
from Asian ceramics and contemporary European pottery,
ivory, glass and metalwork. Figures were drawn from
Chinese and European sculpture. Painted decoration emu-
lated designs on Chinese and Japanese porcelain and
European paintings and engravings.
This free exhibition, located in the International Terminal
outside the secured boarding areas, may be seen at all times.
No airline ticket is needed for access. For information call
821-9900 or visit www.sfoarts.org. “Evolution of a Royal
Vision: The Birth of Meissen Porcelain” runs through
September 2010.

‘Salt’ is a sham
By Christy Lemire
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
“Salt” is, quite literally, a shaggy dog
story.
Despite the cryptic ads that pose the
question, “Who Is Salt?” and regardless
of the various twists and turns designed
to throw us off, the intentions of
Angelina Jolie’s super-spy character,
Evelyn Salt, are never really in question.
This is obvious, based on one compara-
tively small gesture in an early scene.
Salt, a CIA officer accused of being a
Russian spy, dashes home to grab the
supplies she needs to go on the run and
hunt for her husband, who’s missing.
She grabs a backpack hidden in a trunk
full of clothes, but while she’s there she
also sees her scruffy, little terrier,
padding about the apartment, nervous
because everything is in upheaval. Once
she escapes by climbing out the window
and slinking from ledge to ledge, high
above the sidewalk — barefoot in a pen-
cil skirt, in the winter, no less — she per-
suades a young girl in a neighboring
apartment to let her in.
There, Salt opens the backpack and
produces — you guessed it — the afore-
mentioned scruffy, little terrier. (Good
thing they didn’t have a Great Dane.)
WEEKEND JOURNAL
‘Salt’
Director:Phillip Noyce
Cast: Angelina Jolie,Liev
Schreiber,Chiwetel Ejiofor,
Andre Braugher
Rated: PG-13 for intense
sequences of violence
and action
Grade:
And you realize right then and there that
anyone who would go to that much trou-
ble to save a dog cannot be a bad person.
It’s impossible. So from that point on,
while there’s tension in “Salt,” there
really is no suspense. Any attempts to
confuse us about our heroine’s true
nature — and there are many — feel like
an elaborate sham.
Under the direction of Phillip Noyce,
though, at least it’s a well-made sham.
“Salt” allows Noyce to return to the kind
of action thrillers he’s made previously,
like the Tom Clancy adaptations “Patriot
Games” and “Clear and Present
Danger.” It’s muscular, gritty and
propulsive. (Robert Elswit, an Oscar
winner for “There Will Be Blood,” is the
cinematographer.) It’s also totally ludi-
crous and lacking in even the slightest
shred of humanity.
It’s intriguing that, while a man origi-
nally was the main character in Kurt
Wimmer’s script (and reportedly was to
be played by Tom Cruise), making Salt a
woman in no way depletes the film of its
brawniness. But Jolie expressed interest
in playing James Bond a few years back,
and voila — Edwin Salt became Evelyn
Salt. No actress working today is as con-
vincing an action star as Jolie, and she
does tear it up here; the fight scenes are
visceral, not balletic like the “Tomb
Raider” movies or supernaturally trippy
as in “Wanted.”
But what Jolie is called upon to do
grows increasingly difficult to accept,
even for summer escapism. Stunts that
would result in serious injury or even
death to the average person are nothing
for Salt. She jumps off an overpass and
onto a moving 18-wheeler, then onto a
tanker truck, then onto another semi
before landing on the windshield of a
cab, stealing a motorcycle and zipping
away. She leaps from a moving subway

Four most impressive
women who kick butt
By Christy Lemire
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — Angelina Jolie plays an indestructible
CIA officer accused of being a Russian spy in “Salt.” The role
allows her to do so much of what she does so well: kick butt and
look impossibly sexy doing it. Following the “Tomb Raider”
movies, “Mr. and Mrs. Smith” and “Wanted,” “Salt” solidifies
her standing as the most alluring and reliable female action star
working today. Jolie truly has carved out her own niche. But
many actresses before her have shaken things up as intensely as
the big boys, and with a bit of feminine flair:
• Sigourney Weaver in “Aliens” (1986): Thanks to this role,
Weaver is synonymous with fierceness. But part of the allure of
the performance is that she didn’t start out as a bad-ass: She
transformed herself into one out of sheer survival and a ferocious
protective instinct. In the 1979 original, directed by Ridley Scott,
Weaver’s Ripley means business but she isn’t quite the killing
machine she turns into under James Cameron’s direction in part
two. Her climactic battle against the Queen — with her threat-
ening line, “Get away from her, you bitch!” — is so iconic, it’s
even been re-enacted for DirecTV commercials.
• Linda Hamilton in “Terminator 2: Judgment Day” (1991):
Yes, more from Cameron. He does know how to get indelible
performances out of strong women. Similar to Weaver,
Hamilton’s also already pretty formidable as Sarah Connor in
the original “Terminator” from 1984. But that early shot in the
sequel of her doing pull-ups in the state hospital — those sinewy
biceps pulsating with each repetition — is just a frightening
sight to behold. Humans, cyborgs ... why would anyone be fool-
ish enough to mess with her? The fact that she’s a mother adds
another appealing layer to her character.
• Uma Thurman in the “Kill Bill” movies (2003 and 2004):
The Bride, Beatrix Kiddo — whatever you want to call her, just
be sure not to cross her. Like Sarah Connor, Thurman’s charac-
ter has maternal instinct as a motivating force behind her trail of
death and destruction. But The Bride is primarily out for revenge
against her fellow assassins who tried to kill her on her wedding
day. Her knock-down, drag-out trailer fight against Daryl
Hannah is a doozy, but she’s just as capable of taking on a pack
of 100 samurai-sword wielding thugs. Quentin Tarantino’s films
are, of course, hugely stylish homages to the genres he loves, but
since he and Thurman crafted the role together, it also feels per-
sonal — almost sweet.
• Michelle Yeoh and Zhang Ziyi in “Crouching Tiger, Hidden
Dragon” (2000): OK, so maybe it’s a bit of a cheat to pick both
actresses. But they’re so intrinsically intertwined, it’s impossible
to separate them. They need and feed off each other — each is
the other’s equal. They’re both strong and feminine, beautiful
and intelligent, athletic and crafty. And their fight scenes are lush
and hypnotic under Ang Lee’s direction with choreography by
Yuen Wo-Ping (“The Matrix”). Plus, it’s just a gorgeous film in
which the romanticism in no way detracts from the intense mar-
tial-arts showdowns.

ing them. So if Jay asked me to do something, I would do it as
a fan.”
The New Mexico-raised Roach, tall and gaunt with a gentle,
polite manner, wouldn’t seem like an obvious shepherd of over-
the-top comedy. His most natural subject is politics, a muscle he
finally got to flex in the acclaimed 2008 HBO film “Recount,”
which won three Emmys, including a directing award for Roach.
He has two more political films in the works — a film about
the 2008 election, and one about Mark Felt, the FBI agent
known as the Watergate source “Deep Throat.”
“Because I got addicted to comedy, because I was getting
offered comedies, I enjoyed writing that way,” Roach says. “But
I think I always hoped to do a wide range of films.”
With “Austin Powers,” Roach realized he was best off giving
his actors, many of whom were talented at improvising —
Myers, Will Ferrell, Seth Green — space to riff.
“Directors get too much credit, in a way, in comedy,” he says.
“You just have to give it room to have its life and then just watch
it live and thrive and try to keep spinning it a little bit.” For
“Schmucks,” Roach shot more than 900,000 feet of film, which is
several hundred thousand feet more than normal. One key, Roach
says, is that he typically rehearses on film, which means a scene’s
technical aspects are already in place as the actors improvise.
As far as the cutting of all that film, Rudd called Roach “the
ultimate collaborator,” asking for input on which takes to use.
The professional low point for Roach, 53, came with “Used
Guys,” a comedy he was to direct starring Jim Carrey and Ben
Stiller. After months of preparation, Fox and Sony Pictures
Entertainment, wary of its $112 million budget, shut it down just
weeks before it was to begin shooting in 2006.

Moulin Rouge tower demolished in Vegas
By Oskar Garcia
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LAS VEGAS — Workers on
Thursday demolished the tower of the
first racially integrated casino in Las
Vegas, one day after city officials turned
down an appeal of its owners’ demoli-
tion permit.
The white tower of the Moulin Rouge
hotel-casino, which opened in 1955 and
played host to headliners including
Sammy Davis Jr., Nat “King” Cole and
Frank Sinatra, was pulled down by
cables after initial attempts failed and
the structure resisted.
“To them, it’s blight. To me, it’s histo-
ry,” said Pat Hershwitzky, secretary for
a group trying to preserve as much of
the Moulin Rouge and its history as pos-
sible.
The Moulin Rouge is listed on the
National Register of Historic Places.
Hershwitzky said she planned to ask
city officials and site owners Olympic
Coast Investment Inc. to save as much
of what’s left of the site as possible.
She said her group would try to find a
new place to house the casino’s remain-
ing artifacts.
The casino made its mark in Sin City
gambling history despite only staying
open six months in the northwest part of
downtown Las Vegas.
In 1960, it hosted a meeting where
hotel owners agreed to desegregate the
Las Vegas Strip, allowing the first black
guests. The meeting came the night
before a civil rights march, when
Nevada was still known as the
DUVALL

Since then, he has amassed a revered
body of work as a character actor and
occasional leading man with physical,
sturdy performances in films including
“The Godfather,” parts I and II,
“Network,” “Apocalypse Now,” “Tender
Mercies” (for which he won an Oscar) and
the 1997 film he wrote and directed, “The
Apostle.”
His latest is “Get Low,” which will be
released in limited theaters July 30. In it,
he plays Felix Bush, a bearded backwoods
hermit in Depression-era Tennessee who
convinces the town undertaker (Bill
Murray) to throw him a funeral before he
dies.
For Duvall, it’s a fitting role, a cantan-
kerous loner living by his own modest
code.
Duvall let the character, tailored for him
in rewrites, take shape while studying the
part in northern Argentina. He spends
much of his time in Buenos Aires,
Argentina, where he met his fourth and
current wife, Luciana Pedraza, who starred
in his 2002 film “Assassination Tango.”

there and watched the Andes,” says

Mississippi of the West.
After that, the hotel rooms were con-
verted into apartments, and the property
fell into disrepair over the next 40 years.

more than 100 residents and destroyed
the main casino building, but the build-
ing’s marquee remained.
The casino sign has been preserved at
the city’s Neon Museum.
Duvall. “You mull it over in your imagina-
tion. Someone said, ‘Play the parts that are
most prominent in your day dreams.”’
Duvall sometimes pulls a character’s
gestures from different places. Many of
those for McCrae, for example, he got
from Texan and former Redskins quarter-
back Sammy Baugh, whom he met ran-
domly. For “Get Low,” Duvall thought of
his uncles in Virginia, where he owns a
farm.
Acting, Duvall believes, should always
work toward a “bare minimal truth.”
“I try to work just from talking and lis-
tening, to go from there, let it build,” he
says, his hand rising. “You’ve got be care-
ful saying, ‘I become the character,’
because then it becomes something out
here. You only have one set of emotions,
one psyche. So it’s got to be this: Always
you doing it. The best of the actors that I
watch, it’s: ‘Oh, wow. He’s really in touch
with himself.”’
Director Aaron Schneider, a former cin-
ematographer whose 2004 short “Two
Soldiers” won an Oscar, says Duvall’s
“genius” is in “fully embodying a charac-
ter and then just sort of behaving.” He
credits “the power that Duvall has to attract
his fellow actors to his side” for a cast that
also includes Sissy Spacek. The film was
shot over 24 days last year in Georgia.
“A lot of the reactions to the movie are,
‘The movie’s great, but Duvall’s fantastic’
THE DAILY JOURNAL
A fire last year burned through a wing
of vacant rooms one day after Olympic
Coast took ownership through foreclo-
sure.
Its former owners, Moulin Rouge
Properties, had bought the property for
$12.1 million and planned a $200 mil-

— and that’s exactly what we wanted,”
says Schneider. “We wanted to tell a story
about an interesting person.”
Last year, Duvall enlivened two films
with brief appearances: as the friendly bar-
tender in “Crazy Heart” and as the old man
in the financially unsuccessful independ-
ent “The Road,” which the actor said went
“down the drain.”
The state of independent film is some-
thing on Duvall’s mind, not just because
“Get Low” took years to find financing
and secure a release from Sony Pictures
Classics. Earlier this year, he joined as an
adviser to OpenFilm.com, a website
launched by James Caan to help develop
independent film.
Of the 2006 AMC miniseries “Broken
Trail,” which won four Emmys including
one for Duvall, the actor says if it had been
done as a movie, “Six people would have
seen it.” Instead, some 30 million saw it —
“interior of the United States,” he says
proudly.
Duvall is lining up work in several films
including as Don Quixote in Terry
Gilliam’s “The Man Who Killed Don
Quixote” and a role in a possible adapta-
tion of “The Hatfield and the McCoys” —
“if Brad Pitt will say yes,” says Duvall.
“I don’t work as much as I want,” says
Duvall, still chasing parts at nearly 80
years old. “My career is still going great,
maybe as good as ever.”

the increase has slowed.
Until now, the district has been able
to manage the increased number of stu-
dents due to the state allowing larger
class sizes, said Chan. This will end
after the 2011-12 school year, however.
“At this point in time, we can’t cut
the bait anymore,” said Chan, noting
how quick the timeline to meet the
space needs is.
A new timeline for housing the chil-
dren in a new campus starts with

concurrently, from September through

by September 2011. Ultimately, the
new school is slated to be finished and
ready for students in January 2014.

On June 4, after deliberating less than
an afternoon, jurors convicted Sedano.
The verdict was a middle ground
between the first-degree conviction
sought by the prosecution and the volun-
tary manslaughter count argued for by
the defense.
Sedano’s defense never denied the
teenager, then 16, stabbed Buenrostro,

jury he did not premeditate and deliber-
ate the act. He conceded Sedano was a
Norteño gangmember but said he was a
teenager affected by the beating of his
girlfriend who did “something real stu-
pid” by bringing a knife to a confronta-
tion.
According to prosecutor Joe Cannon,

sooner than anticipated.
Under the contract proposal, teachers

Sedano’s case stretched through ques-

Flight crashes in Lake Michigan

By John Flesher
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LUDINGTON, Mich. — A pilot who volun-
teered to fly a man with cancer, his wife and a
doctor to the Mayo Clinic on Friday was res-
cued by boaters in Lake Michigan hours after
his small plane crashed into the water, author-
ities said. The search for a co-pilot and the
three passengers was ongoing.
U.S. Coast Guard Petty Officer Brandon
Blackwell said Jerry Freed, 66, of Alma was
rescued hours after the plane lost power and
crashed a few miles off the coast of Ludington.
He was in good condition at a local hospital.
An air and marine search continued for co-
pilot Earl Davidson, Alma schools’ superin-
tendent Don Pavlik, his wife, Irene, and Dr.
James Hall. “We’re crazy trying to figure out
what might be going on,” Alma school board
vice president Tony Costanzo said late Friday
afternoon. “Some of the best people in town
were on that plane.”
Don Pavlik was diagnosed earlier this year
“We’re crazy trying to figure out what might
be going on....Some of the best people in town were on that plane.”
— Alma school board vice president Tony Costanzo
with cancer of the esophagus and Freed and
Davidson had volunteered to take him to the
Rochester, Minn., medical center, Costanzo
said. Hall, he said, came along because he
wanted to help his ailing friend.
Freed’s wife, Carol, told the Associated
Press earlier Friday that her husband and
Davidson regularly flew people to Mayo on a
volunteer basis. The Freeds owned the plane.
“We’ve all been to Mayo Clinic for various
reasons,” Carol Freed said. “A lot of people
cannot get a flight there due to time constraints
and cost.”
The plane left Alma, about 150 miles north-
west of Detroit, Friday morning. It went down
shortly after 10 a.m. a few miles off the shore
of the resort town on Michigan’s west coast.
Randall Schmidt of Park Ridge, Ill., who
was on his boat with his wife, Kristin Berg,
said he heard a marine radio call about the
plane going down nearby.
“We had made one pass south, one pass
north and we were about to turn back south
when my wife ... saw a man in a yellow inflat-
able lifejacket close to our boat,” Schmidt told
the Ludington Daily News.
Schmidt said Berg threw a life ring to Jerry
Freed and brought him into their boat to wait
for the local sheriff’s department marine unit.
Water temperatures and conditions will have
a lot to do with whether other survivors are
found, Ludington Coast Guard Station Chief
James Hendricks said. Waves in the area of the
crash were 2 to 4 feet high, and the wind speed
was about 18 mph. Hendricks said the temper-
atures likely were in the 70s.

Investigation ties
military workers to child porn
WASHINGTON — A major federal investi-
gation has found that dozens of military officials
and defense contractors, including some with
top-level security clearances, allegedly bought
and downloaded child pornography on private
or government computers.
The Pentagon on Friday released investiga-
tive reports spanning almost a decade that
implicated individuals working with agencies
handling some of the nation’s most closely
guarded secrets, including the National Security
Agency and the National Reconnaissance
Office, which operates U.S. spy satellites.
Defense workers who purchased child porn
put the Department of Defense, “the military and
national security at risk by compromising com-
puter systems, military installations and security
clearances,” a 2007 investigative report said.
The suspects also put the Defense
Department “at risk of blackmail, bribery, and
threats,” one report added. The reports, howev-
er, do not point to any specific security breach-
es.

Ahmadinejad: Russia is anti-Iran
By Aliakbar Dareini
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TEHRAN, Iran — Iranian President
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad accused
Russia’s president on Friday of turning
against Tehran and joining the U.S. in
spreading lies about its nuclear program,
in the latest sign that Iran is drifting
apart from a one-time key backer.
Ahmadinejad said Dmitry Medvedev
entered a “propaganda drama” directed
by Washington by saying last week that
Iran was getting closer to being able to
develop nuclear weapons.
The Iranian president has had harsh
words for Moscow since it became
apparent that Russia would support last
month’s new United Nations sanctions
against Tehran for its refusal to stop
parts of its nuclear program. In the past,
Iran had depended on allies Russia and
China — and their veto power at the
Security Council — to block tough
penalties.
“Russia is a great nation and we are
interested in continuing friendship
between the two nations but his

North Korea tensions spike at Asian security forum
By Jim Gomez
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HANOI, Vietnam — North Korea
inflamed tensions over the deadly sinking
of a South Korean warship by threatening
the United States and South Korea on
Friday with a “physical response” if they
carry out naval maneuvers this weekend.
The U.S. refused to back down.
The latest threat came four months
after the sinking of a South Korean war-

propaganda drama that is to be carried
out by the U.S. president against the
Iranian nation,” Ahmadinejad said in a
speech posted on his website Friday.
“In fact, Mr. Medvedev has kick-start-
ed this drama,” he said.
Russia is in a difficult position in the
ship that killed 46 sailors. The North has
been blamed, but vehemently denies any
involvement.
In Vietnam for a Southeast Asian
regional security forum, U.S. Secretary
of State Hillary Rodham Clinton and a
North Korean official traded barbs over
the sinking, the four-day military drills
beginning Sunday and the imposition of
new U.S. sanctions against the North.

decades of political and trade ties with

and last month backed the new sanc-
tions.
the Korean peninsula confronted the
North about the March 26 sinking of the
Cheonan, calling it a violation of the
armistice that ended the 1950-53 Korean
war. Colonels from the U.N. Command,
who met at the border with counterparts
from the North’s army, reminded them
of the U.N. Security Council order to
honor the truce. Officers also proposed a
joint task force to discuss armistice vio-
lations, the military commission said in
a statement.

Church blasts gay priests leading ‘double life’
ROME — The Catholic Church in Italy, still reeling from
the clerical sex abuse scandal, lashed out Friday at gay priests
who are leading a double life, urging them to come out of the
closet and leave the priesthood.
The Diocese of Rome issued the strongly worded statement
after the conservative Panorama newsweekly said in a cover
story and accompanying video that it had interviewed three
gay priests in Rome and accompanied them to gay clubs and
bars and to sexual encounters with strangers, including one in
a church building.
One of the priests, a Frenchman identified only as Paul, cel-
ebrated Mass in the morning before driving the two escorts he
had hired to attend a party the night before to the airport,
Panorama said.
In a statement Friday, the Rome diocese denounced those
priests who were leading a “double life,” said they shouldn’t
have been ordained and promised that the church would rig-
orously pursue anyone who is behaving in a way that wasn’t
dignified for a priest.
It insisted that the vast majority of Rome’s 1,300 priests
were truthful to their vocations and were “models of morality
for all.”
Those who aren’t faithful to their vows “know that no one
is forcing them to remain priests, taking advantage of only the
benefits,” the diocese said. “Coherency would demand that
they come forward. We don’t wish any ill-will against them,
but we cannot accept that because of their behavior the honor
of all the others is sullied.”
No one knows the exact number of gays in the priesthood.
Estimates of the number of gays in U.S. seminaries and the
priesthood range from 25 percent to 50 percent, according to
a review of research by the Rev. Donald Cozzens, an author
of “The Changing Face of the Priesthood.”
Swiss Glacier Express train derails, dozens hurt
GENEVA — Authorities say a popular Alpine tourist train
has derailed in southern Switzerland, injuring dozens of peo-
ple.
The accident occurred Friday afternoon on the Glacier
Express train that travels through the spectacular scenery of
the Swiss Alps between the towns of Zermatt and St. Moritz.
Police said there were some serious injuries and that most
of passengers were likely tourists. The Swissinfo Web site
reported that most of the injured were Japanese. Rescue
workers were seen loading some of the injured onto medical
helicopters to be flown out for treatment.
