Caller ranted about plane hijacking
By Terry Collins
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ALAMEDA — Workers at a California
hotel that received an anonymous phone threat
to a New York-bound flight said Friday the
caller ranted in a thick accent as others were
heard shouting anti-America curses in the
background.
Justin Martin, a shuttle driver at the
Hampton Inn in Alameda, said the clerk who
answered the call didn’t take the threat seri-
ously until talking with Martin, who discov-
ered online that the American Airlines 767 jet
was about to take off.
Martin spoke to the clerk just after the call
came in around 9 a.m. Thursday.
The caller ranted in broken English that

Martin said.

Jobless rate drops in 18 states,rises in 14
By Christopher S. Rugaber
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Unemployment fell in
fewer states in July than in the previous three
months, a sign that the pace of job growth has
slowed. The jobless rate dropped in 18 states
and Washington, D.C. last month, the Labor
Department said Friday. It rose in 14 states and
stayed the same in 18. That’s a slowdown from
the past three months when unemployment fell
in more than 30 states.
Nationwide, the unemployment rate
remained stuck at 9.5 percent in July.
The report suggests many states are seeing
less improvement in the job market than earli-
er this year. But there were positive signs that
indicate the recovery hasn’t stalled out.
Thirty-seven states saw job gains in July, an
improvement from June but below the 41
states that gained jobs in May. That occurred
even as many states lost temporary census
jobs. Overall, 143,000 census jobs across the
country ended in July. Private employers,
meanwhile, added 71,000 jobs last month.
Job market improvement “is slow, but it’s
still moving in the right direction,” said Steve
Cochrane, an economist at Moody’s Analytics.
There were some bright spots in the
Northeast. New York and Massachusetts
reported strong job gains. Massachusetts
added 19,200 private-sector jobs, the largest
monthly gain in more than 20 years.
Betty Cartmell Badgett
Betty Cartmell Badgett, longtime resident
of Belmont, died Aug. 14.
She was 86.
Betty was born in Kansas to Lydia Ann and
William Henry in 1924. She moved to
Oklahoma City as a young
girl. During World War II,
upon graduation from high
school, Betty attended
radio school in Tonkawa,
Okla. then later worked
for KOCY in Oklahoma
City where she met her
future husband Harold.
Harold and Betty were
married in Reno, Nev. in 1952 and made their
home in San Francisco. They moved to
Belmont in 1956. Betty enjoyed camping and
traveling with her family, gardening and col-
lecting antiques. Betty was preceded in death
by her husband Harold, mother Lydia, father
William Henry, brother William Henry and
sister Winifred. She is survived by her chil-
dren Susan Michaels (Lewis), Stacie and Bill.

Man jumps to death
onto stage at concert
SARATOGA — A man jumped at least 20
feet to his death onto the stage of a Northern
California concert in front of hundreds of hor-
rified music fans, the Santa Clara County
Sheriff’s Office said Friday.
The Swell Season was playing an outdoor
show at the Mountain Winery in Saratoga in
front of a crowd of about 1,900 when the jump
happened Thursday night.
Sheriff’s spokesman Sgt. Rick Sung says
authorities are treating the death as a suicide.
Sung said the man’s identity will not be
released.
Sung says the man left a friend in the audi-
ence around 10 p.m. and soon appeared on a
roof that covers the stage. Witnesses say he
jumped off the roof and landed on stage near
the band’s lead singer, Glen Hansard.

Jetliner grounded in San
Francisco after threat
A hijack threat halted an
American Airlines flight just before
takeoff Thursday, leaving the New
York-bound jet sitting on the tarmac
for several hours while it was
searched and passengers were
removed for extra scrutiny.
The FBI later determined that the
telephoned threat wasn’t credible,
but in the wake of the 9/11 attacks
and a series of airline scares in the
past year, the incident still rattled
nerves as it played out live on
national TV.
Police were investigating who
called in the hijacking threat and
what their motivation might have
been.
Police shoot, kill man
Burlingame police shot and killed
Edgar Jonathan Aristondo, 20,
Monday night in front of his Myrtle
Road home after he allegedly
charged at two officers with a knife,
according to police.
Two officers responded to 217
Myrtle Road just south of
Washington Park at about 8:40 p.m.
after Aristondo’s mother called the
police seeking help for her son, who
she described as being depressed.
“My son was depressed for a long
time. He needed to take his medica-
tion. He had mental problems,”
Gladys Aristondo said.
She disputes the fact her son was
carrying a knife, as police have
claimed and that she did not see
either of the two officers deploy a
Taser before her son was shot dead,
as police said.

On vacation, Obama tends

VINEYARD HAVEN, Mass. —

ISLAMABAD — Massive flood-

government while boosting the
image of the military, a potential
blow to U.S. and domestic hopes of
fostering a strong Pakistani democ-
racy after years of army rule.
Even before the crisis began near-

faced discontent as power short-

economic mismanagement plagued
the country. A military coup is seen
as unlikely, but flooding is so large-

THE DAILY JOURNAL
A man convinced against his will
O
ccasionally, I will have a
reader tell me what an
enviable life I have writ-
ing columns and influencing peo-
ple. Writing columns, yes, but
influencing people, that’s a fantasy
world in which a lot of columnists
and media pundits live.
I doubt anything I’ve written has
ever influenced a single reader or
changed a single vote. There is the
old saying: “A man convinced
against his will is of the same opin-
ion still.” For every reader who has
lauded me as one of the greatest
columnists ever in the land, there
must be at least one who is cursing
me out for cutting across the grain
of his or her beliefs.
In the army, we were warned not
to discuss or argue about politics or
religion. But, as matter of fact, they
are one and the same thing. I have
friends whose religion is politics
and politics is their religion and
they are dogmatic ideologues as
immovable as the most dedicated
religionists, even in the face of
immutable contrary truths.
One has argued with me that his
party has never performed any
questionable campaigning or leg-
islative tricks and has at least 500
instances to prove how evil the
other party has been through the
ages. On the other hand, I have
another friend who tells me his
wife has exactly the same view
toward the first friend’s
religion/party. Her party has never
done anything wrong.
Most readers, radio and cable lis-
teners go to pundit sites of those
who agree with them and make
them feel comfortable. They visit
contrary pundits only to have
something about which they can
exercise their anger and hate at the
“damnable lies.” If you recall I
once wrote about a reader who
nailed me at lunch one day and told
me: “You’re probably right in your
criticism of Rush Limbaugh, but he
says what I want to hear, so I will
continue to listen to him whatever
you write.”
No one dreamed years ago, that
privately-owned cable stations, not
subject to any fairness doctrines,
would become the arms of political
parties, quoted in the rest of the
media and play major roles in the
world of politics.
But do the major pundits really
influence other voters or just cater
to their own folks?
‘For every reader who has lauded me as one of
the greatest columnists ever in the land, there
must be at least one who is cursing me out for
cutting across the grain of his or her beliefs.’
Limbaugh, for example, boasts
20,000 viewers a week for his radio
show, but that is, certainly, not 20
million different listeners for the
week but an average of 4 million
daily times five days. If there are
200 million potential adult listeners
in this nation, that comes down to a
very small fraction of potential
audiences. And no more would
even be heard about him if the rest
of the media did not feature in their
news so many of his inanities, big-
otries, hates and prejudices as
notable news.
All the rest of the pundits have
even smaller audiences than he, so
how many do they really influence?
Glenn Beck’s alleged truths may be
compelling but how large is the
audience he is reaching?
Further, to hold one’s
politics/religion intact, one gathers
only the presumed negatives and
adds them up into a super negative.
I have another friend who sent me
a list of negatives about President
Obama, not one of which was sup-
ported by facts. In fact, the website
Snopes, which examines all the
myths and lies being circulated,
found 60 about Obama it checked
out, all of which were not support-
ed by facts. But, my friend simply
needed to believe his facts, to justi-
fy his disdain of the Obama presi-
dency.
It’s human nature to cling to
what one wants to believe. As I had
written before, when I was an
insurance investigator, it was sim-
ply accepted it hardly paid to pros-
ecute con artists because the vic-
tims need to justify their trust
trumped their need to recoup loses
or punish their victimizer.
The same in the political arena.
Supporters will simply find it hard
to admit their favored party has
done wrong in the false, stomach-
turning negative ads that will be
flooding the media for this upcom-
ing mid-term election. Hate, the
political parties have found, is a
much better seller than love and the
real truths.
And about the upcoming mid-
terms. In cleaning my files I found
OPINION
a column I had written about the
1994 Republican takeover of the
House and the Senate. In it, I sug-
gested that the country cannot be
run from the Legislature and that
Newt Gingrich was having pipe
dreams if he believed it could be.
And, of course, that proved true.
The president, at that time Clinton,
simply laid back while the national
responsibility passed to the
Republican Congress. And
Gingrich took the bait and eventu-
ally shot his career down by shut-
ting down the government and hav-
ing the public holding him and the
Republicans responsible and turn-
ing against both.
Something similar is likely to
happen if the Republicans repeat in
2010. If it is on their agenda to
repeal the health care reform and
financial reform acts, they are again
pipe dreaming. There is no possible
way they can overcome an Obama
veto with a two-thirds vote and
with the public’s anger about the
financial world’s misdeeds, they
won’t get much support there. And,
by the time a Republican president
could be elected in 2012, they will
find that the health care reform will
have sunk into the public accept-
ance, with 61 percent of those
polled recently having already
voted: “Keep your hands off of my
health care reform!”
Since most initiatives would no
longer be available and even possi-
ble, let alone successful for the
president, these would mostly pass
on to the Congress and it better
have some startling new and inven-
tive policies to put in place to com-
pensate for the wailing about those
of the current “incompetent” presi-
dent. Especially with respect to the
ongoing problems of unemploy-
ment, tackling the deficit so gener-
ously passed on to the nation by
Bush/Cheney, dealing with the
growing poverty and desperation of
the still unemployed, the illegal
immigration issue, the choice of
whether to further fund the disas-
trous wars in the Middle East and
all the other unresolved issues.
The burden of proof of success
Weekend • Aug. 21-22, 2010
will fall upon them and the criti-
cisms of the unhappy citizens and
media will pass on to them while
the burden is mostly removed from
the shoulders of incumbent presi-
dent.
To paraphrase Hamlet, this may
not be “a consummation devoutly
to be wished.”
***
I was certain I would be asked
for an opinion on the issue of the
mosque near “Ground Zero.” What
President Obama, who has been a
lecturer in constitutional law at one
of the nation’s premiere law
schools, has said, is absolutely
accurate with respect to the terms
of the First Amendment to the
Constitution. But, as heroic as its
supporters may wish to appear,
there is always a counter philoso-
phy: “Discretion is the better part
of valor.” And they ought to rethink
what their valor could lead to.
***
Finally, I didn’t expect there
would be an answer to my question
of a few weeks ago as to which
government programs, other than
those that benefit the middle class
and the poor, could be cut to
reduce the deficit. The conservative
deficit hawks suddenly become
blind and deaf to the possibility
there could be such a thing as wel-
fare for big agriculture and the rich
that could be cut in order to be fair.
So, no answer now. No answer in
the future. Sorry!

Letters to the editor

Confused letter writer
Editor,
Fresh from his Aug. 6 assault on
the First Amendment to the U.S.
Constitution, Richard King takes
aim at the quality of middle-class
life in his Aug. 13 letter. King
opposes passage of the recently
enacted $26 billion jobs bill on the
grounds that it adds to the national
debt.
This is a lie.
What King deliberately leaves
out of his confused, muddled, mis-
leading rant is that this bill that
keeps 300,000 police, firefighters
and teachers on the job is com-
pletely paid for. It is paid for by
closing a tax loophole on interna-
tional corporations that earn money
in the United States. Currently
these corporations pay zero U.S.
tax. That’s right: zero. And if they
pay zero, that means that you and I
pay more, or that we have to bor-
row to make up for the loophole.
But this bill actually pays not only
the $26 billion cost of the jobs bill,
it also adds back a little to the
Treasury, about $1.3 billion accord-
ing to the Congressional Budget
Office.
He also leaves out the conse-
quences of failing to enact this bill:
more dangerous streets, neighbor-
hoods more exposed to fire hazards
and public school classrooms with
poor student-teacher ratios. But as
long as big business gets to keep its
tax loophole, King is happy.
So in one week from Aug. 6 to
Aug. 13, Richard King has advo-
cated abandoning the First
Amendment, making neighbor-
hoods less safe, and reducing the
quality of our children’s education.
He is for having international com-
panies pay no taxes on their U.S.
earnings.
Sounds like Richard is ready for
his own show on Fox News.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Stocks closed moder-
ately lower Friday as investors’ pes-
simistic view of the economy deepened.
There was little reason for investors to
buy. There were no reports to offset
Thursday’s disappointing news that
growth in the domestic economy contin-
ues to slow. The Dow Jones industrial
average fell 57 points a day after falling
144. The other major indexes also fell
moderately.
“We’re not seeing any significant
growth prospects,” said Peter Costa,
president of Empire Executions. “Why
be in the market if there’s no (near-term)
prospects for growth?”
Oil prices fell again on worries that
future demand will wane if economic
growth remains tepid. Energy stocks
were among the worst performers on the
day, including oil companies Chevron
Corp. and ConocoPhillips.
Overseas markets also fell, reacting to
reports Thursday that initial claims for
unemployment benefits in the U.S. rose
last week and manufacturing in the Mid-
Atlantic region shrank.
Wall Street
“We’re probably on a continuation
from yesterday’s disturbing claims num-
ber,” said Paul Zemsky, head of asset
allocation at ING Investment
Management. “There’s really nothing to
hang your hat on.”
The Dow fell 57.59, or 0.6 percent, to
10,213.62. The Standard & Poor’s 500
index fell 3.94, or 0.4 percent, to
1,071.69, while the Nasdaq composite
index rose 0.81, or 0.04 percent, to
2,179.76.
About three stocks fell for every two
that rose on the New York Stock
Exchange, where volume came to 1.1
billion shares.
Traders’ vacations have left volume
exceptionally low this month. The
uncertainty about the economy has made
those who are working hesitant to make
any big moves.
Data has shown in recent months that
private employers are reluctant to hire
new workers because they are unsure
how strong business will be in the com-
ing quarters. That, in turn, has people
worried about their jobs and spending
less. But until spending picks up, unem-
ployment could remain high. The
vicious circle has investors turning away
from stocks.
Mark Luschini, chief market strategist
at Janney Montgomery Scott, said com-
panies are also reluctant to hire because
of worries about taxes and government
programs like the health care reform
passed earlier this year.
“The uncertainty that exists on regula-
tory and income taxes has (employers) in
stall mode,” Luschini said. Companies
are worried about whether higher taxes
and costs associated to regulation reform
will impact profit margins and cause
shoppers to reduce spending if they are
paying more taxes, Luschini said.
The unemployment rate remains at 9.5
percent and analysts widely agree it
needs to fall to lead to a stronger
rebound.
In corporate news, Dell Inc. reported a

Nearly 50 percent leave mortgage-aid program

By Martin Crutsinger
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Nearly half of the
1.3 million homeowners who enrolled in
the Obama administration’s flagship
mortgage-relief program have fallen out.
The program is intended to help those
at risk of foreclosure by lowering their
monthly mortgage payments. Friday’s
report from the Treasury Department
suggests the $75 billion government
effort is failing to slow the tide of fore-
closures in the United States, economists
say.
More than 2.3 million homes have
fallen into foreclosure since the reces-
sion began in December 2007, according
to foreclosure listing service RealtyTrac
Inc. Economists expect the number of
foreclosures to grow well into next year.
“The government program as current-
ly structured is petering out. It is taking
in fewer homeowners, more are drop-
ping out and fewer people are ending up
in permanent modifications,” said Mark
Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s
Analytics.
Besides forcing people from their
homes, foreclosures and distressed home
sales have pushed down on home values
and crippled the broader housing indus-
try. They have made it difficult for
homebuilders to compete with the
depressed prices and discouraged poten-
tial sellers from putting their homes on
the market.
Approximately 630,000 people who
had tried to get their monthly mortgage
payments lowered through the govern-
ment program have been cut loose
through July, according to the Treasury
report. That’s about 48 percent of the
those who had enrolled since March
2009. And it is up from more than 40
percent through June.
Another 421,804, or roughly 32 per-
cent of those who started the program,
have received permanent loan modifica-
tions and are making their payments on
time.

Recall of eggs expands

By Mary Clare Jalonick
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON — The nationwide recall of tainted eggs

expanded Friday as a second Iowa egg farm was linked to the
ongoing investigation of a salmonella outbreak that has already
sickened more than 1,000 people.
Iowa’s Hillandale Farms said Friday it was recalling its eggs
after laboratory tests confirmed illnesses associated with them.
The company did not say how many eggs were being recalled
or if it is connected to Wright County Egg, another Iowa farm
that recalled 380 million eggs earlier this week.
An FDA spokeswoman said the two recalls are related. The
strain of salmonella poisoning is the same strain linked to
Wright County Egg.
The eggs recalled Friday were distributed under the brand
names Hillandale Farms, Sunny Farms, Sunny Meadow,
Wholesome Farms and West Creek. The new recall applies to
eggs sold between April and August.

North Korea reportedly joins Facebook
SEOUL, South Korea — North Korea appears to have
added Facebook to other social networking sites it recently
joined to ramp up its propaganda war against South Korea and
the U.S.
The account opened late Thursday under the Korean user-
name “uriminzokkiri,” meaning “on our own as a nation,” an
official at South Korea’s Communications Standards
Commission said Friday.
The account opened hours after the commission blocked
North Korea’s 1-week-old Twitter account from being
accessed in the South for containing information that is ille-
gal under South Korean security laws, the official said.
North Korea’s government-run website, Uriminzokkiri,
announced last week that it has a Twitter account and a
YouTube channel created in July.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO — The Bears and Raiders might
both be using quarterbacks they didn’t plan to
in their preseason game.
Injuries to two Oakland quarterbacks could
result in playing time Saturday for the recent-
ly acquired Colt Brennan. Chicago backup
Caleb Hanie’s shoulder sprain might force the
Bears into using Matt Gutierrez after only
three days of practice with the team.
“We have a couple guys

shape,” Bears coach Lovie
Smith said. “We plan on
playing our starters a little

Anything more than

last week against the blitz-

Chargers, completing two
passes in a drive to a field

Offensive coordinator
Mike Martz on Wednesday
Matt Gutierrez acknowledged he pulled
Cutler earlier than planned
because the Chargers threw an assortment of
blitzes at his new offense. Considering Hanie
was injured on a second-half sack, the concern
may have been warranted.
“I just wanted to make sure we are further
along with what we do before we keep him in
there under that kind of circumstance,” Martz
said.
Sixth-round draft pick Dan LeFevour fig-
ures to get most of the snaps for the Bears,
possibly even all of those after Cutler leaves
the game.
LeFevour began training camp completely
inexperienced in the offense. After going only
2-of-10 for 21 yards against San Diego, then
throwing five interceptions in Monday’s prac-
tice, LeFevour began making progress.

He can’t get around being a statesman for the

Homers lift Texas at Little League World Series

Toler’s solo shot in the first set the tone for the
mini-mashers from Pearland, Texas in a 10-8

The 13-year-old Orlando finished 4-for-4

afterward, speaking as if he were a seasoned
major league veteran.
“I would be super-excited to just come up
here and watch games, but to play them is

After several days of practice, public
appearances and media interviews, the antsy
Little Leaguers finally got to play baseball
Friday.
But not before a little more pint-sized pomp
and circumstance in the morning, complete
with a ceremony in which players holding
balloons paraded into Volunteer Stadium to
the adoring cheers of family, friends and other
fans, while “It’s A Small World” played on the
sound system. A large U.S. flag fluttered in a
light breeze beyond the outfield fence on a
warm, sunny day.
“This is a great American day to be at the

the mound with five strikeouts over 2 1/3 no-

his pitch count.
Minnesota broke through against wild

for eight walks and three hits for eight runs,

two outs in the sixth got his team within 10-8
before Pryce Beshoory got a strikeout to end
the game.
“It was a lot of fun. It’s like driving a
Corvette on an icy parking lot, right,” skipper
Mike Orlando asked rhetorically.

catch to his left at third base on a line drive to
save a possible extra-base hit. Klein finished 2

the second inning that he danced atop third

1:54.90. Ryosuke Irie of Japan, the world silver
medalist who came in with the world’s best
time, was third.
Peirsol, the world record-holder, won the con-
solation final in 1:56.67. He was shut out of the
championship final by Lochte and Clary, who
were faster in the heats. Only two swimmers per
country are allowed in the final.
Phelps won the 100 butterfly to collect his
took the checkers at the Brickyard this May for
his second Indy 500 win. He won two weeks ago
at Mid-Ohio to narrow series leader Will Power’s
lead to 41 points and enters Sunday’s race at
Infineon Raceway as the defending champion
after a dominating, green-to-checkers run
through California’s wine country last year.
Franchitti appears to be winding up, not down.
“He’s won big races, he’s won championships,
so he has that experience, but yet he’s got the spir-
it and the energy of when he first started in racing
as a young guy,” said Mike Hull, managing direc-
tor of Chip Ganassi Racing. “That’s a very rare
combination. People, as they go through their
professions, they often lose that energy and live
on the experience. He’s unique because he pos-
sesses both.”
Oddly enough, the aborted NASCAR run is
part of what kept Franchitti going.
Coming off a dominating 2007 season that
included a win at Indy and his first series cham-
Kyle Boller will back up starter Jason
Campbell against the Bears. Boller, signed by
the Raiders in June after a season with St.
Louis, led the late comeback last week.
“He’s getting a new start and I think he’s
making the most of it, certainly, and the way
the situations worked out, with Bruce having
the groin issue, it’s given him a bigger oppor-
tunity,” Raiders coach Tom Cable said.
Cable is particularly concerned with how
his offensive line protects his healthy quarter-
backs against Peppers, defensive tackle
Tommie Harris and the Bears’ pass rush.
“I think with the addition of Peppers, par-
ticularly that first group will have to deal with
him and Harris and their good linebacking
crew,” Cable said. “So the front seven will be
approached the official with what tournament
director Jim Curley called at the time “a threat-
ening manner.”
About 2 1/2 months later, Williams was
fined $82,500 by the Grand Slam administra-
tor and told she would be suspended from the
U.S. Open if she has another “major offense”
at any Grand Slam tournament in 2010 or
2011.
Both of Williams’ titles this season came at
major championships: the Australian Open
and Wimbledon.
If healthy, she would have been considered

third gold medal.
The world and Olympic champion touched in
50.86, erasing American Ian Crocker’s meet
record of 51.47 set four years ago. Phelps post-
ed the year’s fastest time of 50.65 in winning the
title at U.S. nationals earlier this month.
Phelps’ teammate Tyler McGill earned the sil-
ver in 51.85. Takuro Fujii of Japan took the
bronze.
pionship, Franchitti made the switch to challenge
himself, but a small part of it may have been a
sense of boredom. After all those years of close
calls and bad breaks, he had reached the pinnacle
of open-wheel racing.
Franchitti’s fendered-car run didn’t last long,
the plug pulled after 10 Sprint Cup races due to
lack of sponsorship.
That one year turned out to be all Franchitti
needed to realize IndyCar was where his heart
was, pushing an already-uncommon inner drive
to another gear.
“I’m enjoying it more because I realize that if I
run another five years, I’m still closer to the end
of my career than I am to the beginning,” he said.
“Probably the best thing that happened to me was
the ill-fated time in NASCAR because it showed
me what I was missing, what I loved to do, that I
enjoyed driving IndyCars and being a part of it.
That really energized me again.”
An elder statesman with drive.
a very good test for us early in that football
game.”
The Dallas offense ran plays from
Oakland’s 16, 13, 9 and 10 without scoring a
touchdown. The Raiders forced field goals on
three of those possessions thanks largely to
the efforts of two young players: ends Matt
Shaughnessy and Lamarr Houston, who had
two sacks each.
“Any time you can start fast, as a young guy
it definitely builds your confidence, knowing
that you belong,” Raiders defensive lineman
Richard Seymour said. “Both of those guys
have done it in practice, so it just kind of car-
ries over to the game.”

“We regret that Serena Williams is unable to
play the U.S. Open and wish her a speedy
recovery,” Curley said Friday. “She will be
missed, but the tournament is about the com-
petition and the players on the court.”
Five-time U.S. Open champion Roger
Federer said Williams’ withdrawal has “got to
be disappointing for her and for the tourna-
ment. I’m sure it hurts, especially with her
being an American.”

A wild chase for baseball’s wild-card spots
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Charlie Manuel scoffed at the notion of sec-
ond place. So did Phillies stars Jimmy Rollins
and Roy Oswalt.
Even if it meant a playoff spot.
“We don’t care about the wild card,”
Manuel said this week.
OK, Charlie. Let the Philadelphia manager
focus on overtaking Atlanta in the NL East.
And surely the New York Yankees and Tampa
Bay Rays are thinking about winning the AL
East, rather than that extra postseason slot.
But with 40 or so games left, the Phillies and
Rays had wild-card leads going into the week-
end, and that’s not exactly a bad place to be.
NL races
• Why the Phillies win the wild card: With
Chase Utley healed and big bopper Ryan
Howard on the mend, the two-time NL cham-
pions are getting healthy and primed for the
stretch run. The trade for Oswalt puts him
with Roy Halladay, and that’s a pair of aces.
Cole Hamels, the 2008 World Series MVP, is
pitching better than his record indicates. Their
big-game experience — and success — will
serve them well.
• Why the Phillies won’t: Who will be their
closer — Lights-out Lidge or Bad Brad? Fans
haven’t been quite sure the last two seasons.
Philadelphia’s hitters can be streaky, scoring a
bunch of runs and then suddenly getting shut
out.
• Why the Giants win: Rookie Buster
Posey has energized the lineup, along with
resurgent newcomer Pat Burrell. A veteran
pro is always nice to have around, and Aubrey
Huff fills that role, even though he’s never
reached the postseason. General manager
Brian Sabean recently brought Jose Guillen to
the Bay, too, hoping to end the Giants’ six-
year playoff drought.
• Why the Giants won’t: Starting pitching,
of all things. Their once-reliable rotation has
to get back on track, starting with two-time Cy
Young winner Tim Lincecum. San Francisco
starters recently went 14 straight games with-
out a win. With San Diego looking strong in
the NL West, the wild card is the Giants’ best
chance.
• Why the Cardinals win: St. Louis has
one of the best 1-2 combinations in its rotation
and lineup. Chris Carpenter and Adam
LINCECUM
Continued from page 11
working with a purpose and knowing that it’s
going to come back. That’s pretty much where
I’m trying to get to.”
He has tweaked his mechanics and tried to
clear his mind, knowing full well he’s proba-
bly thinking too much on the mound and it
could be making things worse. He has been
trying to find the smallest of positives even
when things go poorly.
Lincecum struck out the side in the first
inning of his last start and everything seemed
fine again. But by the second, he had run into
trouble. He lasted only 3 2-3 innings for his
second-shortest outing of 2010.
He said returning to his old mechanics isn’t
what hurt him.
“That really wasn’t a factor, other than just
wrapping your head around doing too many
things, trying to change too many things to fix
things,” said Lincecum, already a three-time
All-Star at age 26. “It’s kind of what I’ve been
doing the last few outings. Like I said, getting
back to simplifying things and trying to be as
optimistic as possible.
“I’m a big thinker, my brain never stops
working. You start focusing on the wrong
things or maybe the negatives and not the pos-
itives as much. They exacerbate themselves
and they start to manifest and just build up on
SPORTS
With one of the best 1-2 pitching punches in Chris Carpenter and Adam Wainwright, along
with Triple Crown threat Albert Pujols, above, the St. Louis Cardinals have the potential to
grab the National League’s wild card playoff spot.
Wainwright are hard to beat back-to-back,
Albert Pujols has a shot at the Triple Crown
and cleanup man Matt Holliday is finally
swinging well in the first season of a seven-
year, $120 million free agent deal.
• Why the Cardinals won’t: Cincinnati has
stayed ahead in the NL Central, partly
because the bottom end of the Cardinals’ rota-
tion was iffy enough for them to trade a bat
(Ryan Ludwick) for an arm (Jake Westbrook).
The Cards hope Westbrook has a nice finish
and Kyle Lohse can finish strong after missing
nearly three months following forearm sur-
gery.
• Why the Rockies win: Colorado has one
of the top pitchers in the league in Ubaldo
Jimenez and a bona fide NL MVP candidate
in emerging star Carlos Gonzalez. They also
have slick-fielding shortstop Troy Tulowitzki
“I’m a big thinker,my brain never stops working.You start
focusing on the wrong things or maybe the negatives and
not the positives as much.They exacerbate themselves and
they start to manifest and just build up on each other.I

each other. I can’t keep searching. I just have
to go out there and pitch.”
San Francisco needs its ace for a stretch run
that should make for a drama-filled
September. The Giants haven’t been to the
playoffs since 2003 and anything short of a
postseason trip for this bunch will be a major
disappointment.
The club was in the heart of the NL wild
card race until mid-September last season,
then general manager Brian Sabean upgraded
his roster for 2010 in an effort to finally get
over the hump.
Lincecum is 1-3 with a 6.15 ERA over his
last six starts. He has allowed 14 earned runs
in only 14 innings in his last three outings,
with seven walks and 17 strikeouts.
“I want to throw strikes, quality strikes
where I want to throw them,” Lincecum said.
“My fastball’s kind of all over the place right
now. Just getting that down-and-away fastball,
that’s what I have to get back.”
Padres manager Bud Black isn’t ready to
count out the shaggy-haired guy who arrived

in the heart of the order. The Rockies have the
talent to make a late charge, something they
did in 2007, when they went all the way to the
World Series.
• Why the Rockies won’t: Quite simply,
they can’t seem to win away from Coors
Field. They fell to 23-37 on the road after a
loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday
night. Todd Helton is proving he’s past his
prime and former All-Star Brad Hawpe was
cut this week. What’s more, outside of
Jimenez, the pitching staff has been inconsis-
tent. Not a good recipe for a team wanting to
make a late-season charge, and no real chance
of winning the division.
AL race
• Why the Rays win the wild card: Strong
starting pitching, a better-than-expected
— Tim Lincecum
“Franchise” before later being dubbed
“Freak” for his funky delivery and quirky
way. He used to be mistaken for a bat boy
when he got to the ballpark because of his
small size.
“I’ve seen enough of this guy over the years
to know he’s one of the best pitchers in the
game,” Black said after the Padres pinned five
earned runs on Lincecum in an 8-2 win
Sunday.
Black, a former big league pitcher, believes
hitters around baseball might be getting more
familiar with Lincecum’s stuff and thus hav-
ing more success of late. The 10th overall
draft pick in 2006 was largely unknown when
he burst into the big leagues in May 2007 less
than a year removed from the University of
Washington.
The Padres beat Lincecum on Sunday while
facing the hard-throwing right-hander for the
first time since losing to him on July 9, 2009.
“You can see that he’s not dialed in with his
location and hasn’t thrown as well as he’s
capable the last few outings,” San Diego’s
Chase Headley said. “He’s searching.”
THE DAILY JOURNAL
bullpen and great gloves have enabled them to
overcome hitting woes and challenge the
Yankees for the majors’ best record all season.
Manager Joe Maddon has a knack for pushing
the right buttons and constantly tinkers with
the lineup and batting order, squeezing the
most out of role players such as Matt Joyce,
Reid Brignac, Sean Rodriguez and Willy
Aybar.
• Why the Rays won’t: It’s amazing
they’ve been able to keep pace with the
Yankees despite not getting anticipated pro-
duction from Carlos Pena, B.J. Upton and
Jason Bartlett. Every game, you wonder if
they’ll get a hit — the Rays have been no-hit
twice and one-hit twice. While David Price is
an ace, young right-handers Jeff Niemann and
Wade Davis recently went on the DL.
• Why the Red Sox win: When healthy,
their rotation of Josh Beckett, Clay Buchholz,
Daisuke Matsuzaka, Jon Lester and John
Lackey is the deepest in baseball. After being
hurt by injuries all season, they’re starting to
get players back — Dustin Pedroia, Mike
Lowell, Victor Martinez, Beckett and
Buchholz have all come off the DL since the
All-Star break.
• Why the Red Sox won’t: They’re still too
banged up. Jacoby Ellsbury is on the DL for
the third time this year. Kevin Youkilis is
expected to miss the rest of the season. Jason
Varitek, Mike Cameron and setup man Hideki
Okajima are also out. It’s probably too much
for one team to overcome when chasing their
two AL East rivals.
• Why the White Sox win: Paul Konerko,
Alex Rios and the White Sox hit plenty of
homers, plus this team can manufacture
offense with 100-plus steals. Manager Ozzie
Guillen’s club is the consummate peak-and-
valley team. They’ve played around .500 for
the last month to drop behind Minnesota in
the AL Central, so maybe they’re due for
another big winning streak.
• Why the White Sox won’t: The way
things are shaking out, it appears the wild card
will come from the powerful AL East. That
means the White Sox almost assuredly have to
leapfrog the Twins, and that’s a big problem
for the White Sox lately. They’ve lost 20 of
their last 27 games to Minnesota. They also
have problems closing games out, with
Guillen searching for a reliable answer among
Bobby Jenks, J.J. Putz and Matt Thornton.
Simplifying things is Lincecum’s plan. It’s
basic stuff, really. Manager Bruce Bochy
doesn’t seem overly concerned about his top
pitcher.
“He’s got to put this behind him,” Bochy
said. “You start logging that many pitches it’s
going to catch up with you.”
In February, the Giants rewarded Lincecum
with a $23 million, two-year contract — able
to see past his offseason marijuana arrest.
Lincecum repeatedly apologized for embar-
rassing himself and the franchise.
He struggled in spring training this year
then began to look like his old dominant self
again.
Lincecum recorded an NL-best 261 strike-
outs last season and tied for the league lead
with four complete games and two shutouts.
He went 15-7 with a 2.48 ERA in 32 starts
and 225 1-3 innings. That came after his
breakout 2008 campaign.
Listed at 5-foot-11 and a generous 170
pounds — tiny by today’s standards for a big
league pitcher — Lincecum was 18-5 with a
2.62 ERA and a major league-best 265 strike-
outs in ’08.
The Giants are confident he will bounce
back from this stretch and pitch like the
Lincecum of old.
“There’s a lot of things in the game you
have to focus on. I’ve been trying to wrap my
head around too many things,” the pitcher
said. “I just have to simplify things and do
what I know how to do.”

‘Lottery Ticket’ not a total loss By Christy Lemire

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The odds of winning the lottery
are what, like, 1 in 175 million? The
laughs aren’t quite so hard to come
by in “Lottery Ticket,” but they’re
not a safe bet, either.
The feature debut from longtime
music video director Erik White,
which he co-wrote with Abdul
Williams, starts out amiably
enough, with a shaggy, shambling
vibe. But it eventually devolves into
a weirdly violent streak, followed
by some seriously heavy-handed
sentimentality. Still, the ensemble
cast manages to keep things sporad-
ically enjoyable.

MUSEUM GOTTA SEE ‘UM
By Susan Cohn
DAILY JOURNAL SENIOR CORRESPONDENT
Maira Kalman’s art appears everywhere in the fore-
ground of today’s visual culture. She is known for her
covers and drawings for The New Yorker, over a dozen
books for children and adults, two celebrated illustrated
blogs for The New York Times and collaborations with
leading designers and innovators.
“Maira Kalman: Various Illuminations (of a Crazy
World),” showing now at San Francisco’s Contemporary
Jewish Museum, is the first museum survey of Kalman’s
narrative art. Working as an illustrator, author and design-
er, Kalman illuminates contemporary life with a profound
sense of joy and a unique sense of humor.
The exhibition features a selection of original works on
paper that span 30 years of illustration for publication.
Also on view are less widely seen works in photography,
embroidery, textiles and performance. As a context for
this survey, Kalman has created a special installation, fur-
nishing the gallery with chairs, ladders and “many tables
of many things,” drawn from her collections and indica-
tive of how she sees the world both inside and outside the
studio.
Kalman speaks of her work as a form of journalism.
She uses writing and drawing to render an ongoing
account of the world as she sees it. Hers is a daily disci-
pline of creativity based on photography, travel, research,
walking, talking and open observation. A serious love of
distraction pervades. Abundant depictions of fashion,
food, art and architecture represent life’s great pleasures. ‘New Yorkistan’is the title of this cover art created by Maira

The Nanny McPhee movies may be principally for

An
erally, a parent’s dream.
Overwhelmed single parents with unruly kids are rescued
by a magical nanny who seemingly appears out of nowhere.
And at no cost! For some older moviegoers escorting little
ones, this premise might be impossibly alluring. And they said
fans of “Avatar” were depressed when they left the theater.

Tours take visitors SWITCH
from grape to glass
By Michelle Locke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HEALDSBURG — They say great wine is
made in the vineyard. Now some vintners are
inviting guests to check that out through walk-
ing tours aimed at giving the real dirt on wine-
making.
“One of the challenges facing the industry is
there is this elitist perception of wine,” says
Clay Mauritson, winemaker at Mauritson
Winery, which offers vineyard tours. “I just
see a huge benefit to getting people in the vine-
yard and showing them how the wine is
made.”
The Mauritson tour is one of four self-guid-
ed walks put together with the assistance of the
Sonoma County Winegrape Commission.
(The other three are Paradise Ridge Winery,
Balletto Vineyards and Matanzas Creek
Winery.) The tours are free and visitors get
information sheets pointing out various sights
along the way; tasting room fees vary.
Trails are clearly marked with stopping
points to look at various features, such as the
Mauritson wind machines used to protect
grapes from frost during the winter. (The fans
draw in and circulate warmer air.) Different
types of vines are pointed out, as well as the
environments they like to live in — heavier,
richer soils for sauvignon blanc, for instance,
or gravelly dirt for cabernet sauvignon.
“It’s a passive education,” says Mauritson.
“When they notice those things, what they’re
really doing is the essence of viticulture.
You’re not shoving it down their throat with
hoity-toity wine talk, you’re really letting them
find out.”
Amy Hoseth, a librarian from Fort Collins,
Colo., who recently took the Mauritson tour
with her husband, Chad, appreciates the low-
key approach.
“I’d never seen grapes growing before, so it

was cool to see how it all works,” she said.
The couple visited a few wineries, including
one where they took a tram ride through the
fields, which they also enjoyed, but “it was just
kind of fun to get out there and walk around.”
At the end of the tour, the couple got to stand
near the crushpad and watch wine being bot-
tled, a bonus peek into the world of winemak-
ing.
Sonoma County isn’t the only region invit-
ing visitors to get up close and personal with
the vines.
In next-door Napa Valley, Rubicon Estate —
the historic Inglenook Winery painstakingly
restored by director Francis Ford Coppola —
has a variety of tours including a 45-minute
Vinifera walk.
“This journey begins where our wine begins,
in the vineyard, and that really was the impe-
tus for us to do this,” says Catherine Durand,
senior director of retail operations at Rubicon.

friend, the uptight stock trader Wally (Jason
Bateman), switch the specimens in a drunken
stupor.
Why, you may be wondering, does Wally
even have access to the cup that contains the
makings of Kassie’s future child? Because the
whole deal is going down at an insemination
party thrown by the movie’s obligatory wacky
best friend (Juliette Lewis), complete with
jokey turkey basters. Like most situations —
and like the similarly hokey “The Back-up
Plan” from earlier this year, starring Jennifer
Lopez — this one is played in broad, sitcom-
my fashion, utterly divorced from the way
people behave in real life.
“Baster” is actually the name of the short
story by Pulitzer Prize-winner Jeffrey
Eugenides (who also wrote “The Virgin
Suicides”), which provides the basis for “The
Switch.” But the way directors Josh Gordon
and Will Speck (“Blades of Glory”) play it,
there’s little humanity to be found — and even
less real humor.
Aniston and Bateman both have long,
strong TV comedy backgrounds; Aniston,
when given smart writing to work with in
films like “The Good Girl” and “Friends With
Money,” has proven herself an actress of
unexpected depth. Here, they just get nothing
to work with. Their characters are barely-
drawn types, and in Wally’s case, they’re bare-

morning but keeps getting delayed by the
random neighbors in his Atlanta housing
project.
They include his God-fearing grandma
(Loretta Devine), the gossipy neighbor
(Charlie Murphy) and the crazy recluse who
lives in the basement and only pops his hand
out with some cash for Kevin to buy him
some beef jerky and a Cherry Coke (his
identity will be revealed later). Along for the
ride is his broke, unemployed best friend,
Benny, played by Brandon T. Jackson, who
has a loose, easy energy about him and gets
many of the best lines. (He was also great as
Alpa Chino in “Tropic Thunder.”) And
there’s Kevin’s childhood pal, the college-
bound Stacie (Naturi Naughton), who clear-
ly wants to be more than friends, and should
be.
After a run-in with neighborhood ex-con
Lorenzo (Gbenga Akinnagbe) over some Air
Jordans gets him fired from his job, Kevin
buys himself a lottery ticket while stopping
at the corner store to buy one for his grand-
ma. And whaddya know? The numbers he
got out of a fortune cookie that day just hap-
pen to win him the $370 million jackpot.

ly likable. Aniston and Bateman have so little
chemistry, you actually wonder how their
characters ended up friends with each other,
much less best friends.
Of course, beyond that, Wally’s always
been secretly in love with Kassie and inca-
pable of connecting with any other woman.
He’s miserable, which would be fine if he
were interesting, but this guy’s just a dud (and
a waste of Bateman’s deadpan wit and verbal
dexterity). And the child who emerges from
Wally’s switch is so precocious and neurotic
himself, he resembles no other 6-year-old on
the planet. Which is, of course, the gag: He’s
just like Wally. But despite young actor
Thomas Robinson’s saucer-eyed cuteness, it
feels creepy and forced rather than funny.
Kassie assumes her baby comes courtesy of
the seed from Roland (Patrick Wilson), a
blonde-haired, blue-eyed, athletic go-getter of
a donor. Once she gets pregnant, she goes
home to Minnesota to raise young Sebastian,
only to return to New York for work seven
years later. Wally is exactly the same — but
once he meets Sebastian and starts spending
time with him, the memories of his inebriated
scheme start coming back to him and he real-
izes he may actually be this kid’s dad. (Jeff
Goldblum, as Wally’s boss and sounding
board, provides the only worthwhile moments
here because he’s just so appealingly blase.)
Will Wally tell Kassie the truth? Will Kassie
and up with Roland instead? Will there be
some embarrassing, ill-timed confession in
front of a large group of strangers?
These things don’t happen in real life. But
they do in contrived romantic comedies.
scenes as the bemused store owner.)
But because we need a plot contrivance to
make things difficult for Kevin, it just hap-
pens to be the extended July 4 weekend, so
he has to wait three days to cash in at the lot-
tery office. This also means he has to sur-
vive three days of people cozying up to him
or trying to kill him because he’s now a rich
man. Keith David is reliable as the godfather
of the projects, who gives Kevin a $100,000
“loan” in hopes of doing business with him
(with an underused Terry Crews as his
chauffeur/enforcer). Teairra Mari plays the
resident sexpot who never gave him the time
of day before but now wants to be his baby
mama. And Mike Epps has an amusing
scene as an opportunistic preacher.
In theory, because Kevin is a smart — and
street-smart — kid, he should see though all
these schemes and manipulations. But with
his head swimming, he neglects the woman
who’s been loyal to him all along: Stacie.
Only Ice Cube, showing some flashes of
emotional depth as a retired boxer, can help
set him straight. (He’s also one of the film’s
executive producers.)
“Lottery Ticket,” meanwhile, shows flash-
es of the kind of likable comedy that made
Ice Cube’s “Friday” a cult classic. It just
doesn’t show them consistently, and the
cloyingly feel-good ending nearly negates
the good will the movie generated from the
beginning. It doesn’t hit the jackpot but it’s
not a total loss.
THE DAILY JOURNAL
PARKSIDE
Continued from page 1
years’ worth of wear and tear.
Donn Lovell, a 44-year-old father of a
second grader who attends Parkside, is the
current president of an unofficial offshoot
of the school’s PTA called the Parkside
Dads. The PDs is a group of volunteers,
mostly fathers of current students, who
dedicate their time to visit the campus on
weekends and perform minor chores,
make cosmetic fixes and other “honey-
dos.”
“The school ran pretty well until
Proposition 13,” Lovell said about the
voter-approved 1978 ballot initiative.
“Our school is located in a neighborhood
of hard-working people, but it seems that
other schools in the district seem to get
better treatment. I mean, you can go to
other schools and you won’t see weeds or
graffiti, but it’s also the socio-economic
status of where they’re at.”
So the PDs try to make up for what the
district can’t afford to fix.
“Unfortunately, when things break
around here, the school just takes them
away. They aren’t put back because
there’s no money to put them back. So
when we lost one of our handball back-
stops, it just went away.”
Recent weekend projects for the PDs
have included sanding and treating wood-
en picnic tables and benches or basic land-
scaping. But one of the dads is a coach at
the College of San Mateo.
“He approached me and said ‘This is
what we do every year. Our boys have to
do a community service project. In the
past, we’ve donated to San Mateo Parks
and Recreation Department. Can you use
my people?’”
So this Saturday, Lovell will be direct-
ing about 100 football players plus some
other volunteers in the most ambitious fix-
up project for the school.
Lovell will tell you, however, that the
real challenge is in the labor. Once people
find out what you’re doing for the better-
ment of the community, he said, help finds
you.
That reality began to show last year
when he and the school’s principal Lynn
Gurnee applied for — and received the
full amount — a $5,000 “Toolbox for
Education Grant” from Lowe’s
Companies, Inc. a home improvement
department store chain, for the Fall 2009
grant cycle.
WEEKEND JOURNAL
Donn Lovell,head of the Parkside Dads Club in San Mateo,organizes supplies in a
storage shed at Parkside Elementary School.
Since 2009, Lowe’s has awarded 140
grants to California schools, 11 of which
are in San Mateo County.
“The beauty of it is I had a hard time
spending the money. I’d go to Home
Depot and when I told them what I was
doing they told me I didn’t need to buy
anything. They gave me all their dying
plants. So I’d bring them here and the kids
will prune them back and fertilize them
back to life.
“I went to Kelly-Moore to ask about
eco-friendly paints and (they also) said,
‘you can have whatever you want’
because the company was founded in San
Carlos that donates paint to local chari-
ties,” Lovell said.
“By doing what we’re doing today ...
the goal is to preserve the school for —
what I want to say would be at least —
another decade,” he said. “We’re using
quality products by quality vendors.”
As for the campus’ troubles?
“We have our share of problems. On
evenings and weekends, vandals will
come and drink but slowly but surely
we’re addressing the issues,” he said.
Even after his son Connor graduates to
later grades, he may still participate with
the PDs.
“I was born and raised in this neighbor-
hood a couple blocks over. Like my son,
we grew up here and you consider this
(campus) as ‘your park’: A safe haven for
children to come and play.
“I just want to make it fun for the kids
while they’re here (and still kids).”
His main goal is to limit the influence of
MICHAEL COSTA/DAILY JOURNAL
The educational aspect of teaching the
value of hard work also makes this project
less of a chore, Lovell said.
“We have to learn ‘sweat equity,’ you
know?” he said. “Pulling weeds, sowing
soil. Gardening is kind of a lost art.”
And then there’s the lessen that many
hands make lighter work.
“The little kids here are excited that the
big kids are coming here to help. And it
inspires more parents to get involved. And
in turn, be inspired to help out in their
kids’ schools.”
Have Lovell walk you around the cam-
pus of his childhood and he’ll be quick to
point out what was where and how it
looked.
He looks wistfully at a large blacktop
map of the United States that Lovell
remembers having made while a student
here in the 1975-76 school year:
Remembering when each state still had a
star representing its respective capital.
Now age has all but removed the stars
and the landscape is pockmarked with
cracks and dried mud splotches.
“We’re going to do a little cleanup but
we’re going to let it get a little worse
before we repaint it. (Ultimately) we want
to do cute things to it, like put a ‘You Are
Here’ sign. The color scheme is ugly, so I
need to come up with different colors.”

Moloney’s top priority, if elected, will be

He says the two-party system no longer

In regards to two wars the country is cur-

Some significant social changes could be in the offing for you
in the year ahead, which will make your life a lot more excit-
ing. More involvements with new people and new interests
are indicated, giving you greater exposure to opportunities for
fun and enjoyment.
out to your liking at last. Hidden factors might bring this about
in a favorable manner.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) - Make certain that you’re
around friends who know where the action is, how to have a
good time, and make sure that you’re included in the plans.
Fun people will make fun things happen.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) - A social contact you make could turn
out to be quite lucky for you, bringing about something that
you’ve been hoping would happen for a long time.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) - Although a problem might be
suddenly dumped in your lap, you’ll have to act and think with
alacrity. Your readiness will determine your ability to take
advantage of it.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) - Any kind of joint involvement will
have an excellent chance for success, whether you’re in it for
business reasons or simply for a social purpose. Actually, you
might get involved in both.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) - Spend your energies on
endeavors or efforts that could bring about profitable opportu-
nities. You’re especially lucky in things that pertain to making
money or that can advance your financial interests.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) - Your chart indicates that there
are more possibilities around you than usual for acquiring
material gains. Don’t sit at home doing nothing: go where the
action is so that you can cash in.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) - Regardless of how unique your
ideas may be, getting the support of others is likely to be
easier than you think, especially if you lay all your cards out
on the table. People will like what they see.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) - Financial trends that are pres-
ently taking place can have a greater positive effect on your
security than you ever suspected. Gains could come to you
from more than one source.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) - Don’t let some unexpected

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
VIRGINIA JEAN BRINK, aka VIRGINIA
J. BRINK, aka VIRGINIA BRINK
Case Number 120311
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: Virginia Jean Brink, aka
Virginia J. Brink, aka Virginia Brink. A
Petition for Probate has been filed by:
Madie Sperry in the Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo. The
Petition of Probate requests that Madie
Sperry be appointed as personal repre-
sentative to administer the estate of the
decedent.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ister the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection of the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: September 3, 2010

DRINK
Continued from page 1
bring you a drink.
While Molloy’s is not normally that bar for
some, one can quickly begin to feel like the
quiet bar with familiar faces was that scene.
Getting to a bar doesn’t normally require
driving past hundreds of headstones. But
Molloy’s, which is technically located in
South San Francisco, is so close to those
peacefully resting in Colma that it’s kind of
like having a drink with the past. And the past
is readily apparent inside Molloy’s. Built in
the 1880s, the bar features many old newspa-
per clippings. Yellowing in color, the informa-
tion tells stories of a outside world that
inside.
The Brooksville Hotel building was built in
1883 by an Irishman to offer housing while
Holy Cross Cemetery was being constructed
across the way, according to Mitch Postel,
executive director of the San Mateo County
Historical Association. Postel attributed the
business’ success to its proximity to workers
and a street car. Patronage continued through
the Prohibition years, as all the documentation
Postel has seen shows it continued to serve
despite legal bans.
Frank Molloy purchased the property in
1929. Frank’s son Lantry took over the bar
after returning from serving in Korea. He
changed the bar’s name to its current moniker,
Molloy’s Tavern.
Most of the history is displayed in the larg-
er, open area to the left of the front door —
the news clipping are historic photographs of
boxing matches. Taking a right, on the other
hand, leads a thirsty patron straight to the bar.
With nods to the Irish everywhere, the bar
area boasts the expected televisions but also
memorabilia from the land of leprechauns.
A friendly bartender awaits to serve a
Guinness or even a Corona. Expect to pay $4
to $5, nothing too expensive. Fun fact,
Molloy’s is one of the top sellers of Jameson
— an Irish whiskey worthy of this pub
inspired by its homeland — in Northern
California.
There’s fun banter to be had, an older man
making semi-sexual inappropriate jokes to the
young lady who comes in with her mom and
guys sitting around a table just enjoying hav-
ing nothing to do. It’s one of the few places
where actual Irish people — literally on vaca-
during weeks away from their island nation.
Those elements make this bar not the place to
go if you want to shake your bum. But if sip-
ping a beer with a good friend while enjoying
laughs is what you’re looking for, stop by.
The bar is cash only. Don’t worry; there is
an ATM on site. It should be noted, it’s not as
quiet on Thursday nights when a DJ is spin-
ning. And it started offering pub quiz on the
last Tuesday of every month.
Basically, this is your go-to place for a chill
hangout for reasonably priced drinks when
you want to actually talk to those with whom
you went out.

tional 25-foot-high catenaries above the rail
track line that would create the visual equiva-
lent of five-story building running the 1.6-
mile length of the city, according to the text of
the resolution to be considered Tuesday.
The resolution also calls on other Peninsula
cities to join in unified support and acceptance
of the fully trenched or partially covered alter-
native. The Belmont resolution is the latest in
a salvo of opposition to the High-Speed Rail
Authority’s recent proposal that featured no
underground options for most cities on the
Francisco.
Several cities on the Peninsula — including
Belmont, Burlingame and Atherton — have
considered some form of symbolic resolution
to oppose aspects of the project as their city
councils have made it clear the tracks should
be buried underground through their cities.
Redwood City also expressed its disap-
pointment in the concept of an elevated
viaduct in their city, but Councilwoman
Barbara Pierce of the council’s ad hoc com-
mittee on high-speed rail said it is still the
city’s intention to continue work with the
authority on solutions that would be a better
fit. The city also intends to engage in a local-
ized engineering and economic analysis in
which it will present its own alternatives for
The city of Burlingame most recently asked
Caltrain, which has partnered with the High-
Speed Rail Authority on the project, to offi-
cially weigh in against an elevated structure.
Caltrain officials, however, are pushing for a
phased implementation for the project, mean-
ing parts of the project can be built while the
authority seeks other money for more desir-
able solutions.
The project was kicked off in earnest with a
$10 billion bond in November 2008, and most
recently was awarded $2.5 billion in federal
funding in May. Its ambitious plans include elec-
trified bullet trains from Los Angeles to San
Francisco and its total anticipated cost is $40 bil-
lion, though critics say that number could double.

lion to electrify the Caltrain tracks and build a
new station in Millbrae.
In addition to the resolution in support of a
cut and cover trench and discussion of fund-
ing, the city of Belmont will discuss options
on photo renderings of the proposed elevated
structure along with story poles along the
Caltrain right-of-way that would show what
the proposed alignment would look like. It
will also discuss the formation of a 12-mem-
ber ad hoc committee of city officials and
business and neighborhood representatives
before the release of the High-Speed Rail
Environmental impact Study expected to be
released in December.
