Mental treatment considered in bear repellent attack
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A San Carlos transient who sprayed bear
repellent at a pedestrian and three fast-food
employees who he thought were trying to poi-
son him could receive mental health treatment
rather than jail time under the terms of a nego-
tiated plea.
Richard Allen English Jr., 52, pleaded no
contest to two felonies: the use of tear gas and
the use of a tear gas weapon. In return, prose-
cutors dropped other felony charges and asked
for a maximum of 16 months prison. Judge
Lisa Novak disagreed, setting the top at one

year county jail with consideration of
Pathways, the county’s mental health court.
English’s mental issues led him to believe
Carl’s Jr. employees were trying to poison
him, according to prosecutors.
On May 3, the homeless man who stays in a
creek near the restaurant at 1800 El Camino
Real used the facility’s rest room, then
approached the counter and sprayed a canister
of bear repellent at three employees before
fleeing. Outside, he told a pedestrian to run
and then sprayed him before again fleeing.
The workers sustained “significant pain and
discomfort,” according to the prosecution.
The next day a Carl’s Jr. employee spotted
English and contacted police. After his arrest,
English reportedly showed police where he
discarded the spray can and disclosed his poi-
soning theory.
English has been in custody in lieu of
$50,000 bail since his arrest. He returns to
court Sept. 3 for consideration of Pathways. If
accepted, English will receive treatment
instead of incarceration. If Judge Mark
Forcum denies English entrance, he will be
sentenced.

By Juliet Williams
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO — Hundreds of union
members celebrating the 90th anniversary of
women’s suffrage rallied Thursday at the
state Capitol, holding signs that said “Women
vote for women who vote” — an attack on the
state’s first female Republican nominee for
governor.
The signs were criticizing the abysmal vot-
ing record of former eBay chief executive
Meg Whitman, who has acknowledged that
she failed to vote for most of her adult life.
The rally was organized by the California
Nurses Association, a vocal Whitman critic.
Many marchers wore wide-brimmed hats
adorned with flowers, long skirts and high
necklines, in reference to the attire of the era
of suffragettes. While some speeches focused
on the struggles women went through to
secure the passage of the 19th amendment to
the U.S. Constitution, other speakers touched
on a modern political issue: the upcoming
November election.
A group of California Teachers Association
members chanted “Teachers vote without fail,
California’s not for sale.”
Whitman, a billionaire businesswoman, has
contributed $104 million to her campaign to
date, breaking all previous state spending
records.
At a campaign event Thursday in the City
of Industry, Whitman called the rally a dis-

traction from the most
pressing issues facing the
state.
“That is the union bosses
trying to distract from the
fact that I will go to
Sacramento and I will
change Sacramento,” she
said. “I will get the public
Meg Whitman pension under control. I
will fix our K-12 educa-
tion system. So in my view, my voting record
isn’t perfect, but the main issue here is how
are we going to turn California around, and I
think I have a plan.”
Whitman has been a vocal critic of public
employee unions, which largely support her
Democratic challenger, state Attorney General
Jerry Brown. He re-emerged on the campaign
trail this week after a quiet summer spent
fundraising for a costly campaign this fall.
The California Nurses Association has held
rallies around the state with a colorful
“Queen Meg” character who proclaims she
would like to buy the state. Whitman has
responded in kind, skewering the union in
mailers sent to some nurses’ homes calling
out executive director Rose Ann DeMoro’s
$293,000 annual salary.
Whitman says she supports the group’s sig-
nature issue — upholding the California law
that requires hospitals to have at least one
nurse for every five patients. The CNA suc-
cessfully lobbied for the law.
Passenger Michelle McDuffie said people
onboard felt a thud when the plane touched
down about 12:50 p.m. after a flight from
Long Beach, but nobody thought there was
an emergency until the crew shouted for
everyone to exit on the inflatable slides.
McDuffie saw the burning tires when she
was on the ground.
“I thought, Oh I wish I had gotten my bag
off. But I was just happy that I wasn’t hurt,”
said McDuffie, 33, of Mission Viejo.
The plane appeared to experience trouble
with its brakes, and four tires blew out dur-
ing the landing, airline spokeswoman
Sharon Jones said.
The 87 passengers were taken to the ter-
minal on buses, airport spokeswoman Gina
Swankie said.

BART spends more
than $6M after deadly shooting
OAKLAND — Bay Area Rapid Transit says it has spent
more than $6 million in the wake of a white former officer’s
shooting death of an unarmed black pas-
senger.
The transit agency released the costs to
The Chronicle on Wednesday after a pub-
lic records request.
The expenditures include $1.5 million
paid to the passenger’s 6-year-old daugh-
ter in a civil settlement and nearly
$800,000 for additional training for BART
Johannes officers.
Mehserle Johannes Mehserle was convicted in
July of involuntary manslaughter in the
2009 shooting death of 22-year-old Oscar Grant in Oakland.
Grant’s uncle, Cephus Johnson, says the agency could have
spent “a few dollars more up front” to ensure proper training.
Officials: Gilroy drug raid value now put at $200M
SACRAMENTO — Authorities are saying the drugs they
seized last week at a drug lab in Gilroy are worth twice as
much as originally estimated.
After testing the purity of the 460 pounds of processed meth
and 15 pounds of cocaine discovered during the bust, investi-
gators said Wednesday they now put the street value of the
drugs at $200 million.
The estimate also includes the value of 19 gallons of meth
solution that authorities processed into crystal themselves.
Sacramento County sheriff’s Lieut. Fred Links, the head of
a multiagency drug task force that took part in the seizure,
says the raid came after a year-long investigation of a drug
dealing network centered in California’s Central Valley.
S.F. zoo welcomes pair of flamingo chicks
SAN FRANCISCO — After seven years of waiting, the
Chilean flamingo population at San Francisco’s zoo has two
new chicks.
Zoo officials say because reproduction within a flamingo
colony has a strong social aspect, it often takes place when
thousands of birds are milling about. That makes breeding in
captivity difficult, although some zoos have been successful
with colonies of around 40 birds or more.
To try to increase the flamingo population, zoo officials in
San Francisco brought 10 additional pink-feathered birds
from the Phoenix Zoo last year.
Beck to hold rally at Lincoln Memorial
By Philip Elliott
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Glenn Beck
says it’s just a coincidence his
Restoring Honor rally on Saturday at
the Lincoln Memorial will take place
on the anniversary and at the site
of Martin Luther King Jr.’s
famous “I Have a
Dream” speech. Civil
rights veterans are skep-
tical.
“This is going to be
a moment that you’ll
never be able to

Sarah Palin and other
conservative political

Authorities plan to use heat-beam ray in jail
By Thomas Watkins
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — A device
designed to control unruly inmates by
blasting them with a beam of intense
energy that causes a burning sensation is
drawing heat from civil rights groups
who fear it could cause serious injury
and is “tantamount to torture.”
The mechanism, known as an
“Assault Intervention Device,” is a
stripped-down version of a military
gadget that sends highly focused beams
of energy at people and makes them feel
as though they are burning. The Los
civil rights movement.”
“When we heard about
Glenn Beck, it was puzzling,”
the Rev. Al Sharpton said.
“Because if you read Dr.
King’s speech, it just doesn’t
gel with what Mr. Beck or Mrs.
Palin are representing.”
Beck, a popular fig-
ure among tea party
activists and a
polarizing Fox
News Channel per-
sonality, is head-
lining the event,
and Palin, the
2008 Republican
vice presidential
nominee and a
potential 2012
president candi-
date, will be a
prominent speaker.
But Beck told his
television audience
again on Thursday that
Angeles County sheriff’s department
plans to install the device by Labor Day,
making it the first time in the world the
technology has been deployed in such a
capacity.
The American Civil Liberties Union
of Southern California criticized Sheriff
Lee Baca’s decision in a letter sent
Thursday, saying that the technology
amounts to a ray gun at a county jail.
The 4-feet-tall weapon, which looks like
a cross between a robot and a satellite
radar, will be mounted on the ceiling
and can swivel.
It is remotely controlled by an opera-
tor in a separate room who lines up tar-
gets with a joystick.
it’s not about politics.
The event’s website says the rally is to
pay tribute to America’s military person-
nel and others “who embody our nation’s
founding principles of integrity, truth and
honor.” It also is to promote the Special
Operations Warrior Foundation, which
provides scholarships and services to
family members of military members.
The website urges citizens to attend
and “help us restore the values that
founded this great nation.”
The rally, on the 47th anniversary of
King’s plea for racial equality is drawing
a strong reaction — and several counter-
rallies — as the nation looks toward
November’s elections.
Beck is known for his strong opinions,
including his statement that President
Barack Obama is a racist; he later told
CBS’ Katie Couric that he was “sorry
the way it was phrased.”
But organizers of Saturday’s rally are
telling attendees not to bring signs, “as
they may deter from the peaceful mes-
sage we are bringing to Washington.”
The ACLU said the weapon was “tan-
tamount to torture,” noting that early
military versions resulted in five airmen
suffering lasting burns. It requested a
meeting with Baca, who declined the
invitation.
The sheriff unveiled the device last
week and said it would be installed in
the dorm of a jail in north Los Angeles
County. It is far less powerful than the
military version and has various safe-
guards in place, including a three-sec-
ond limit to each beam of heat.
The natural response when blasted —
to leap out the way — would be helpful
in bringing difficult inmates under con-
trol and quelling riots, the sheriff said.

Is Your Lower Back
Pain and Sciatica
Ruining Your Life?
There is Finally a non-surgical answer for herniated
and degenerative discs! Don’t risk surgery until you
learn about Spinal Decompression! It has helped
thousands and it will likely help You!
At Crossroads Health Center, your Satisfaction is
Guaranteed. Let us help you get the quality of life back
that you deserve.
M y name is Dr. Thomas Ferrigno D.C., owner
of Crossroads Health Center in Campbell and
San Mateo. I understand what it feels like to live with
chronic back pain. Due to several auto accidents and
sports injuries, I have personally suffered from multiple
disc herniations in both my neck and lower back and
understand firsthand the severe pain and disability that
comes with these types of injuries to the point where I
was forced to sell all 3 of my practices. I did not want
to have spinal surgery due to the high risk; instead I
wanted a non-surgical non-invasive therapy that would
help me manage my condition.
That is when I turned to Spinal Decompression, not as
a doctor, but as a patient and it completely changed my
life. Within a few months my pain went from severe to
mild and I was able to return back to my activities of
golf, weight lifting and spending quality time with my
family. It has been my mission ever since to share this
great new technology with as many people as possible.
While non-surgical spinal decompression is a rather
new treatment, there’s plenty of research to back up its
or visit my website at www.BayAreaBackPain.Com.
However it’s the results we see every day in our office
that get us so excited about this new non-invasive
treatment. Read what a few of our patients are saying.
For years I have had severe back pain due to
herniated and bulging discs and sciatica pain. The pain
at times was unbearable. I’ve seen several doctors,
chiropractors, but still couldn’t get relief from the
pain, even with the meds. Surgery was advised by
my primary doctor. I saw the advertisement in the
daily paper about spinal decompression therapy, and
was very interested in this treatment since it didn’t
involve any surgery. I went in for the initial exam
and Dr. Ferrigno explained in detail the process
of the DRX9000. Since having treatment, the pain
has reduced dramatically. I am very happy with the
treatment and can walk, golf, and am able to do things
that I haven’t been able to do in years! I would also like
to say thanks to Dr. Ferrigno,
Dr. Potts and the office staff; they went above and
beyond to make sure my back problem was resolved. I
couldn’t be happier!!
—C.M. Allard
During the 1½ years of having constant daily lower
back pain and spasms, I took anti-inflammatory and
pain medication, but nothing helped lessen the pain.
Physical therapy didn’t help. When an MRI showed that
I had two degenerative discs, I went through a series of
lumbar epidural injections. The first one helped a tiny
bit, but the others didn’t do a thing for my pain. The
only thing that made the pain and spasms go away was
Spinal Decompression treatments at Crossroads Health
Center. Four years later and I am still pain-free!

Women and girls wait to receive bread for their families at an assistance center for flood victims in Pakistan.
Pakistani Taliban hint at attacks
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MIR ALI, Pakistan — The Taliban
hinted they may launch attacks
against foreigners helping Pakistan
respond to the worst floods in the
country’s history, saying their pres-
ence was “unacceptable.” The U.N.
said it would not be deterred by vio-
lent threats.
The militant group has attacked aid
workers in the country before, and an
outbreak of violence could compli-
cate a relief effort that has already
struggled to reach the 8 million peo-
ple who are in need of emergency
assistance. Pakistani Taliban
spokesman Azam Tariq claimed
Thursday that the U.S. and other
countries that have pledged support
are not really focused on providing
aid to flood victims but had other
motives he did not specify.
“Behind the scenes they have cer-
tain intentions, but on the face they
are talking of relief and help,” Tariq
told the Associated Press by tele-
phone from an undisclosed location.
“No relief is reaching the affected
people, and when the victims are not

when the victims are not receiving help,then this
horde of foreigners is not acceptable to us at all.”

receiving help, then this horde of for-
eigners is not acceptable to us at all.”
He strongly hinted that the mili-
tants could resort to violence, saying
“when we say something is unac-
ceptable to us, one can draw one’s
own conclusion.” U.N. humanitarian
chief John Holmes said the U.N.
remained committed to helping flood
victims in Pakistan.
“We will obviously take these
threats seriously as we did before,
and take appropriate precautions, but
we will not be deterred from doing
what we believe we need to do,
which is help the people of Pakistan
... who have been affected by the
flood,” he told a news conference at
U.N. headquarters in New York.
Holmes noted that the Pakistani
Taliban carried out a suicide attack
against the office of the U.N.’s World
Food Program in Islamabad last

October, killing five staffers, and in
March, militants attacked the offices
of World Vision, a U.S.-based

quake survivors in northwestern
Pakistan, killing six Pakistani
employees. He said U.N. security
experts will be working with U.N.
agencies and international organiza-
tions “to assess what the risks are and
to minimize them.”
U.S. State Department spokesman
P.J. Crowley said Washington is also
taking the threat of attacks by mili-
tants seriously.
“We have information of the
potential targeting of foreign relief
workers in Pakistan, as well as gov-
ernment ministries,” Crowley told
reporters in Washington, adding, “It
just underscores the bankrupt vision
that these extremists have and we are
conscious of that threat.”
Fears Taliban expanding
in Afghan north and west
By Robert H. Reid
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KABUL, Afghanistan — Eight
Afghan police gunned down at a
checkpoint. Campaign workers kid-
napped. Spanish trainers shot dead
on their base.
A spurt of violence this week in
provinces far from the Taliban’s
main southern strongholds suggests
the insurgency is spreading, even as
the top U.S. commander insists the
coalition has reversed the militants’
momentum in key areas of the eth-
nic Pashtun south where the Islamist
movement was born.
Attacks in the north and west of
the country — though not militarily
significant — demonstrate that the
Taliban are becoming a threat across
wide areas of Afghanistan even as
the United States and its partners
mount a major effort to turn the tide
of the nearly 9-year-old war in the
south.
The latest example occurred
Thursday when about a dozen gun-
men stormed a police checkpoint at
the entrance to the city of Kunduz,
about 150 miles (240 kilometers)
north of the Afghan capital, Kabul.

Allied:Trash has chance
of regular day pickup
Those facing delays in their garbage pickup
are being asked to leave their cans out on their
regular delivery day as Allied brought in extra
workers from other locations and regular driv-

Allied Waste is asking customers to leave
their containers out until they are collected
because they may be able to pick up some of
the routes earlier than originally anticipated.
There is still a chance that garbage and recy-
cling may still not be collected until two days
later, however.
Allied Waste will also be running a clean-up
crew on Sunday to make sure they’ve collect-
ed everything and service should be back to
normal by Monday.
The 48-hour work stoppage by 13 workers
at the Ox Mountain Landfill was prompted by
stalled contract negotiations between Allied
bagged and the break hasn’t disrupted the
neighborhood’s remaining sewer system.
Wildlife appears unaffected and the sewage
that did escape into the lagoon is not heading
toward the Bay because the flushing is con-
trolled by gates and pumps that have not been
activated.
There have been no reported illnesses
because of the leak but people are being told
not to swim in, boat in or touch the lagoon
water in any way. Warning signs are posted at

State budget inaction is indefensible

T
his week, state officials
announced it would delay
$2.9 billion a month in
payments to school districts and
counties — a month earlier than
expected.
This means that several local
school districts must scramble for
cash to pay salaries and keep the
lights on. Last year, the Redwood
City Elementary School District
had to take out a loan and pay
$27,000 in interest costs because
the state pulled a similar move. The
instability makes borrowing the
money difficult and more expen-
sive. Other districts are faced with
borrowing from other funds. This
year doesn’t seem to be any differ-
ent.
School is in session and the state
still does not have a budget —
leaving everyone waiting to see
what the impact will be from state
legislators figuring out how to
bridge the state’s $19 billion budg-
et gap. Also on the way are state
IOUs to vendors, taxpayers and
anyone doing business with the
state just to make sure there is
enough cash flow.
Several proposals have been
floated — including a tax swap that
would increase the vehicle license
fee and the state income tax —
‘The bills that are being sent to the
governor are important and needed, but
they are nowhere near the ultimate priority.’
which can be deducted by those
who itemize their federal returns —
while reducing the state sales tax.
But the realization that such a pro-
posal would hit the middle class
the hardest is making it difficult to
get any traction. One proposal
everyone agreed to would swap gas
excise taxes without increasing
how much drivers pay at the pump.
The sum savings of that agreement
would be a mere $1 billion — not
nearly enough to bridge the gap.
There are plenty of ideas and
proposals being floated in
Sacramento but nearly all of them
are swaps and tricks that simply
would make the numbers work. It
is this type of accounting that led
to the demise of Enron and the
imprisonment of its leaders. And
yet this is another day at the office
for our elected officials.
Now that we are facing worker
furloughs, payments delays and the
looming specter of IOUs, the pace
of legislation out of the capitol to
the governor’s office for his
approval is quickening. Bill after
bill on a variety of topics are mak-
ing their way through the legisla-
tive process as if the looming
tragedy of the failure of the elected
body to pass a budget was merely
an afterthought.
Here the rest of California waits
while the Democrats and
Republicans in Sacramento remain
at an impasse over their primary
responsibility. The bills that are
being sent to the governor are
important and needed, but they are
nowhere near the ultimate priority.
Put simply, they can wait. Many
elected officials were smart enough
to keep a lid on their legislation
while the budget deadline neared
and was not met once again July 1.
But the budget still has not passed
and there is little indication there
has been any progress on it. In the
meantime, the severe impacts of
the Legislature’s failure is showing
itself. In San Mateo County, seven
school districts are scrambling to
find money to pay their bills and
some will have to pay interest on
low-quality loans because the state
finances are so unstable. That is
taxpayer money to be paid to bank-
ing institutions for interest that
would not be needed if the state
Legislature has simply done its job
and recognized that the budget is
the priority. The ripples from its
primary failure will only grow.
Legislators may say that the entire
state should not come to a standstill
because the budget is too compli-
cated to fix. They may claim that
Sacramento is broken and that they
are merely trying to get what they
can accomplished. The work on
other legislation should be consid-
ered secondary if its inaction on the
budget creates unneeded suffering
for those needing resolution.
Perhaps there should be a bill — or
a state proposition — that all other
legislation should cease if the
budget deadline is not met because
clearly the Legislature cannot
police itself. Now that’s legislation
that would make sense.
It is time for legislators to focus
not on other work, but on the budg-
et. It needs undivided attention.

Jerry Hill needs
to take a walk
Editor,
The bill authored by
Assemblyman Jerry Hill to reduce
the penalty for illegal right turns at
a red light makes no sense.
Apparently, Mr. Hill has not been
a pedestrian for the last few years.
When the light is red for a vehicle,
pedestrians are crossing on green.
My experience as a pedestrian is
that most drivers make little effort
to look for crossing pedestrians.
Making an incomplete stop on red
has persisted in allowing the pro-
posal to go through the planning
process despite numerous demands
by those who oppose is simply evi-
dence of good government. The
environmental impact review
process looks to be as transparent
as it is robust. The planned scop-
ing sessions will give residents of
Redwood City as well as those of
the region an opportunity to not
only make their wishes known but

Costco sees opportunity in Wash.booze initiative
OLYMPIA, Wash. — The cavernous stores in Costco’s home
state lack something you can find in its warehouses in
California, Alaska and many other places: bottles of Maker’s
Mark, Absolut vodka and other popular brands of hard liquor.
But two ballot measures on the November ballot — one
heavily backed by Issaquah-based Costco Wholesale Corp. —
would largely sweep away Washington’s post-Prohibition
restrictions on liquor.
Initiative 1100 would abolish the state liquor distribution and
sales system in favor of private businesses. It would also elim-
inate beer and wine price controls and bans against volume dis-
counts which have been in place since the 1930s. Retailers with
licenses to sell beer and wine would be eligible to add a liquor
license, and they would gain the ability to buy directly from
manufacturers. Currently, beer and wine are sold in thousands
of grocery and convenience stores, but customers can only buy
hard liquor by the bottle in the 315 state and contract stores.
“It’s a matter of convenience,” said Costco spokesman John
Sullivan. “People who move up from California really scratch
their heads over this system.”
Washington is among 18 so-called “control” or “monopoly”
states that exercise broad powers over wholesale liquor distri-
bution. Of those states, 13 — including Washington — are also
involved in retail alcohol sales through either state-run liquor
stores, outlets operated by private contractors, or both.
Opponents argue that I-1100 goes too far by eliminating the
three-tier system — producers, distributors and retailers —
basically allowing Costco to cut out the middle man distributor.
Yelp testing 1-day sales of local coupons
SAN FRANCISCO — Review website Yelp is testing out
“Yelp Deals” — large discounts at local businesses that site
users can buy on one day only.
The move comes as sites such as Groupon have gotten
extremely popular by combining social media with the power
of group buying, offering shoppers daily deals on products and
services in their communities. With Groupon, however, the
deals are only activated once a certain number of people in a
city have agreed to participate.
In Yelp’s case, there is no minimum participant requirement.
Yelp said Thursday it is just testing the service in San Diego and
it isn’t currently offering one deal each day. Yelp plans to test
Yelp Deals in San Francisco and New York in the coming weeks.

Wall Street slips
By Stephen Bernard
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Stocks fell Thursday
after early gains from a better report on
jobless claims ebbed. The Dow Jones
industrial average closed below 10,000
for the first time since early July.
The Dow lost 74 points, having been
up as much as 45 earlier. The market has
struggled to hold on to gains in recent
trading as many investors remain uncon-
vinced that the economic recovery will
hold.
Stocks have been on a generally
declining trend in August after charging
ahead in July. A bevy of poor indicators
on the economy, especially weak home
sales, has pierced a sense of optimism
brought about by a series of strong cor-
porate earnings reports the month
before. The Dow has lost ground in five
of the past six trading sessions, and has
shed 430 points over that time.
The market enjoyed a brief reprieve
from that malaise early Thursday thanks
to an encouraging sign on the job mar-
ket. The Labor Department reported that

More at risk of foreclosure

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The jobs crisis is
putting more Americans at risk of losing
their homes.
One in 10 households is facing fore-
closure, and more than 2 million homes
have been repossessed since the reces-
sion began. Few expect the outlook to
improve until companies start to hire
steadily again and layoffs ease.
And while there was some good news
Thursday — a modest decrease in the
number of Americans filing for jobless
benefits for the first time in a month —
the figure is still too high to bring down
the unemployment rate.
So the housing crisis goes on.
“Ultimately, the housing story,
whether it is delinquencies, homes sales
or housing starts, is an employment
story,” said Jay Brinkmann, the top
economist for the Mortgage Bankers

SEATTLE — Hewlett-Packard Co.
has again raised its bid for 3Par Inc.
above an offer from rival Dell Inc., sug-
gesting that the little-known data-storage
maker could be worth more with one of
the PC companies’ marketing muscle
behind it.
The latest offer from HP for $27 per
share in cash, or about $1.69 billion, is
nearly three times what 3Par had been
trading at before Dell made the first bid
last week.
Earlier on Thursday, Dell said 3Par
had accepted its second offer of $24.30
per share in cash, or $1.52 billion. Dell
made its first offer, $18 per share, for
3Par on Aug. 16, and HP responded
Monday with a bid of $24 per share.
HP and Dell, two of the world’s
largest personal computer makers, are
looking at 3Par as a way to build up their
“cloud computing” businesses, which
involve delivering software, data storage
and other services to customers over the
Internet. Either company would buy
3Par in part to cut data-storage costs.

Now, it’s up to Ben Bernanke to pro-
vide the next clues on the economy. The
Federal Reserve chairman is delivering a
speech early Friday that investors hope
will shed light on how weak the U.S.
economy really is and whether the Fed
may take more steps to revive it.
Peter Cardillo, chief market economist
at Avalon Partners Inc., said the market
wants to see whether “the pulse of the
Fed is beating at a fast rate with anxiety
over the economy.”
The Dow fell 74.25, or 0.7 percent, to
9,985.81. The Dow had traded below
10,000 several times this week, but had-
n’t closed below that level since July 6.
Broader market barometers also fell.
The Standard & Poor’s 500 fell 8.11, or
0.8 percent, to 1,047.22, while the
Nasdaq fell 22.85, or 1.1 percent, to
2,118.69.

ment as of June 30, according to a quar-

sion.
The percentage of mortgage borrow-
ers receiving foreclosure notices did fall
slightly from the previous quarter, the
first drop in four years. And the percent-
age of loans receiving their first notice of

But many experts say the situation is
getting worse. July was the worst month
on record for new home sales and the
worst in 15 years for sales of previously

Some analysts described even Dell’s ini-

But Andy Hargreaves, an analyst for
Pacific Crest Securities, said Thursday
that Dell and HP are willing to pay more
than twice 3Par’s previous value because
they believe they have the marketing and
distribution muscle to turn 3Par into a

ended in March, was $194 million —

bigger drop than analysts expected.
First-time claims had jumped ominously
the week before, going above 500,000
for the first time since November.
The latest jobless claims report sug-
gests that hiring remains weak. In a
healthy economy, weekly claims usually
fall below 400,000. At the height of the
recession in March 2009, weekly claims
peaked at 651,000.
Treasury prices rose, sending interest
rates lower, after the glow from the pos-

yield on the 10-year Treasury note
dipped to 2.48 percent from 2.54 percent
late Wednesday. Its yield helps set inter-
est rates on mortgages and other con-
sumer loans.
Long-term bond yields are hovering
around levels not recorded since early
2009, when the country was in the
depths of the recession and stocks hit 12-
year lows.
European markets got a lift from an

More than 2.3 million homes have
been repossessed by lenders since the
recession began in December 2007,
according to foreclosure listing service
RealtyTrac Inc. And 6 million more will
be lost to foreclosure over the next three
years, by some estimates.
If that happens, home prices will prob-
ably sink further, and the economy will
suffer. Builders will keep construction to
a minimum, and Americans will be less
willing to spend because of their lost
home values.
“Housing is certainly not going to help
the recovery,” said Michelle Meyer, a
Bank of America economist. “It threat-
ens to hinder it.”
A major problem is that many people

They face stiff storage competition
from NetApp and EMC.
Dell may have even made what it
knew was a low offer to start,
Hargreaves said, to take advantage of
turmoil at HP, where CEO Mark Hurd
had just resigned in the wake of a sexu-
al-harassment allegation against him.
Hurd had led HP through many acquisi-
tions aimed at broadening the business
beyond PC sales.
In an interview, Hargreaves said HP’s
first offered showed it “was still willing
to make a bid, even if there’s no CEO.”
A response to Dell’s second offer indi-
cates that HP is serious about a deal and
not just inflating the price to make Dell
rethink its pursuit.

Volkswagen revamps Jetta By Ann M. Job

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Remember the old saying, “If you

can’t beat ’em, join ’em”?
Officials at German automaker
Volkswagen may be taking it to
heart at long last.
Perhaps more than any previous
VW Jetta, the redesigned-for-2011
five-passenger sedan is built for
American tastes.
It’s a bigger car with a bigger back
seat for the kind of legroom that
Americans demand, new sheet metal
that makes the car look more
upscale than before, and a lower
starting retail price that puts the Jetta
closer to top-selling compact sedans
like the Toyota Corolla and Honda
Civic.
In fact, the new Jetta’s rear-seat
legroom of 38.1 inches is not only
greater than the 34.6 inches in the
back seat of the Civic, it surpasses
the 37.2 inches in the back seat of
the mid-size Honda Accord sedan.
Overall, the Jetta is nearly 2.9 inch-
es longer than its predecessor.
The base 2011 Jetta with front-
wheel drive carries a starting manu-
facturer’s suggested retail price,
including destination charge, of
$16,765 with manual transmission
and 115-horsepower, 2-liter, four-
cylinder engine.
With automatic transmission, the
lowest-priced 2011 Jetta starts at
$17,865.
These prices are still higher, by at
least $360, than the major 2010

Toyota recalls 1.33M Agency steps up probe of stalling Corolla cars
Corollas and Matrixes
By Dan Strumpf
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Toyota recalled 1.33 million Corolla sedans
and Matrix hatchbacks in the U.S. and Canada Thursday
because their engines may stall, the latest in a string of quality
problems at the Japanese automaker.
The recall covers vehicles from the 2005-2008 model years
sold in the U.S. and Canada. Three accidents and one minor
injury have been reported, though Toyota said a link to the
engine issue has not been confirmed.
Toyota’s latest recall is one of its largest since it began recall-
ing cars and trucks last October. The automaker has now
recalled more than 10 million vehicles worldwide for problems
that run from faulty gas pedals and floor mats that can trap
accelerators, to problems with its Prius hybrid.
Toyota said Corollas and Matrixes equipped with 1ZZ-FE
engines may contain a defective engine control module, the
computer that regulates the performance of the engine. In some
cases, a crack may develop on the module’s circuit board,
which could prevent the engine from starting or could cause
harsh shifting or an engine stall.
Separately, General Motors Co. is recalling 200,000 Pontiac
Vibes in North America due to the same problem, GM
spokesman Alan Adler said. The Vibe is similar to the Matrix
and was built under a joint venture between Toyota and GM at
a now-closed factory in Fremont, Calif.
Both automakers said they will replace the engine control
modules on the recalled vehicles at no charge. The companies
will begin mailing notifications to owners of the affected vehi-
cles in mid-September.
The engine control module with the possible defect was
manufactured by Delphi Corp., a large auto parts supplier
headquartered in Troy, Mich., according to documents filed
with federal regulators.
The automaker has been more aggressive in its pace of
recalls in recent months. Its last recall was in late July, when
the automaker said it would fix half a million cars, mostly
Toyota Avalon sedans, over a steering issue.
U.S. regulators hit Toyota with a $16.4 million fine earlier
this year for failing to promptly tell the government about its
car defects. Toyota has been working to overhaul its quality
controls and respond more aggressively to customer com-
plaints in the fallout of its recall crisis.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has
been investigating the possibility of engine stalling in the
Corolla and Matrix models since late November. On Tuesday,
the traffic safety agency said it had intensified its investigation.
NHTSA spokeswoman Olivia Alair said Thursday that the
probe is ongoing. Toyota spokesman John Hanson said the
automaker is cooperating with the safety agency on the probe.
He said it was the automaker’s decision to issue the recall,
adding it was not pressured by NHTSA to do so.

WASHINGTON — U.S. safety regu-

model price tags are a long way from the
starting retail price of more than $19,000
for last year’s model, which came with a
bigger, more powerful base engine.
The new exterior styling of the 2011
Jetta makes the car appear a bit more
mainstream. But it also looks more
upscale and is a welcome change from
the previous Jetta styling; it had grown
old.
Inside, the changes bring mixed
results. The dashboard plastic looks
more utilitarian than last year’s Jetta.
But controls and gauges are still attrac-
tively arranged.
There’s a new radio faceplate that

This also is the first year that the Jetta
is available with push-button start as an

VW’s Intelligent Crash Response
System, that automatically turns off the
fuel pump, turns on emergency flashers
and unlocks the doors after air bags are
deployed in a crash, is standard and is on
the Jetta for the first time. And six air
bags, electronic stability control and
antilock brakes are standard on all mod-
els.

Both could have happened during pro-
duction of the cars.
The new probe, called an engineering
analysis, covers 1.8 million Corolla and
Matrix cars from model years 2005 to
2007. It is a more in-depth investigation
of the vehicles than the preliminary
probe begun by NHTSA in December.
That probe covered vehicles from the
be happy to know the Jetta TDI — for
turbodiesel injection — is in the 2011
lineup with the same 140-horsepower,
four cylinder engine it had in 2010.
But the TDI won’t be in showrooms
until late this calendar year; trim levels
of the gasoline-powered Jettas — S, SE,
SEL and GLI — arrive starting in
October from the assembly plant in
Mexico.
The test car was the mid-range SEL
with 170-horsepower, five-cylinder
engine, automatic transmission and nice
standard features like 17-inch wheels,
chrome-finished grille and navigation
system with touchscreen.
Of course, VW is known for its road
handling and ride, and the test Jetta
wound its way through twisty roads and
back-and-forth switchbacks with poise. I
stayed in my lane on skinny two-lane
roads without fuss, even at good speeds
around curves. The more I drove, the
more comfortable the driving became.
Despite the fact this 2011 Jetta’s sus-
pension wasn’t tuned for sportiness, the
car’s handling was pleasing. And the
ride was not punishing or harsh for pas-
sengers, even on uneven pavement. All
in all, I didn’t miss the previous year’s
multilink rear suspension.
A second Jetta SEL with sport suspen-
sion offered more body control through
the switchbacks, but the ride became
fatiguing on bumpy pavement.
There was a good amount of road
noise from the SEL’s 17-inch tires with

NHTSA said it has received 163 com-

Toyota spokeswoman Monika Saito

didn’t notice wind noise.
The steering has shifted from electric
boost to hydraulic but the steering in the
test cars felt linear and comfortable.
To get to the lower starting price, VW
installs a single overhead cam four-
cylinder engine, generating only 115
horsepower and 125 foot-pounds of
torque, into the base S model.
This engine wasn’t in last year’s Jetta
but was in an earlier generation.
The base engine mileage estimates
from the federal government of 23 miles
per gallon in city driving and 32 mpg on
the highway aren’t impressive, since the
uplevel engine — a 2.5-liter five cylinder
generating 170 horses and 177 foot-
pounds of torque — has nearly the same
fuel economy rating, 24/31 mpg. Both
mileage ratings are for cars with auto-
matic transmissions.
The best Jetta for fuel mileage will be,
as expected, the one with the turbod-
iesel. Mileage rating for that car has not
been posted yet.
I have always liked VW’s supportive
seats, and the new Jetta has them, too.
The back seat, commodious compared
with last year’s Jetta, gave me enough
room to stretch and extend my legs,
though I still think driving with three
adults back there might be a good idea
for a short trip only.
Rear seatbacks fold down so long
items can slip through from the 15.5

Indians making strides Pieces in

By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

It’s only his second year as the head var-

sity coach, but Jefferson’s Ako Poti has
already made huge strides.
Coming into last season, the Indians gen-
erated a lot of buzz considering the bulk of
the squad was comprised of players who
went undefeated in league at the frosh-soph
level. That translated into a .500 overall
record and a winning record in Lake
Division play.
Now with a year of varsity experience,
combined with a group of frosh-soph play-
ers who went undefeated against last sea-
son, the Indians are hoping for big things.
Those hopes are tempered, however, by
the fact they will be playing in the Ocean
Division this season.
“It’s nice to get some recognition and
move up to the Ocean,” Poti said. “It’s nice
to move up and compete with those guys.
Hopefully we don’t embarrass ourselves.”
Jefferson had no problems moving the
ball last year as the Indians averaged 28
points per game. Despite losing a couple of
key pieces from last year’s offense, the
Indians, again, should not have trouble put-
ting points on the board. They do return one
of the league’s most explosive players in
Kyani Harris, who was named the Lake
Division’s Special Teams Player of the

What Half Moon Bay may have lost to
graduation, it is making up with more expe-
rience. The Cougars have a number of
returners at key positions which should
allow them to, once again, battle for the
Ocean Division title.
Dominic Sena returns for a senior year at
running back, after a breakout year last sea-
son, which gives the Cougars a bona fide
playmaker.
“That’s obviously a big deal,” said Half
Moon Bay coach Matt Ballard. “He’s an
explosive back. Dom really stepped up (last
year) and proved he could get 20 touches a
game and hang in there. We always knew he
was explosive.”
Helping out in the running game will be
returning junior fullback Jesus Huerta and
junior Wesley Walters, up from the frosh-
soph squad.
More importantly, however, may be the
maturation of junior quarterback Nate
Seaton. He split time as a sophomore last
year, but took over the starting spot toward
the end of the season. Ballard and the
Cougars’ coaching staff purposely kept
things close to the vest as Seaton got com-
fortable playing at the varsity level. Now,
Ballard is ready to let the reins out a little
bit.

Refs on front lines of brain-trauma detection

F
ootball referees have a tough
enough job simply calling the
game. Now, they’ll have an
even bigger responsibility starting this
year — judging whether or not a play-
er is showing concussion-like symp-
toms, with the discretionary power to
send him or her to the sideline and keep
them there.
Now, more than ever, there’s an
emphasis on sports-related brain
injuries. During the offseason, the
National Federation of State High
School Associations passed a new con-
cussion rule. Basically the rule states
that any player who exhibits signs con-
sistent with a concussion will automat-
ically be removed from the game and
unable to return to the field “until
cleared by an appropriate health-care
professional.”
But in California, the rules are even
more stringent. — after all, most kids don’t like coming

player out and the athlete is later deter-
mined to have suffered from severe
head trauma, the referees at the game
will be lambasted for falling asleep at
the wheel.
It’s a fine line. The bottom line is,
unlike other injuries, we can’t see dam-
age to the brain. That’s why when it
comes to head-related matters, it truly is
better to be safe than sorry. Mike King,
who is entering his 15th year as a refer-
ee, acknowledges he has an even bigger
responsibility now. However, King
feels things aren’t going to be too dif-
ferent than what he’s done in the past.
“In general as officials, we’ve always
been on the lookout for players who
have been injured or with concussion-
type problems,” he said. “Safety has
always been the most important item
on our agenda. Obviously, what we say
on the field now (regarding concus-
sions) stands, and by rule, we can a pull
a player from the game. It’s kind of one
of those things in that if we see a kid go
down and they show signs or symp-
toms of a concussion, we’re going to err
on the side of safety. We’re going to ask
the player to be removed from the
game.”
However, King said there will be
cases when a player gets up slowly and
doesn’t show signs of a concussion —
“He will be able to answer questions
fine and clearly,” King said — in which
case he can send an athlete to the side-
line to have a coach or trainer “take a
look at him.” In that situation, an athlete
can return to the game, as long as he or
she was not deemed to be displaying
signs of a concussion by a referee.

49ers defense pushing for results
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SANTA CLARA — For the past
three seasons, the San Francisco
49ers defense has been all about
potential. Now it’s about production
and results.
The emerging unit that carried the
team to an 8-8 record last season is
trying to take it a step further this
summer, and it appears the best is
yet to come.
“Man, we’re at the starting line
waiting for the gun,” linebacker
Takeo Spikes said Thursday. “That’s
the anxiousness we have right now.
That’s the excitement we have about
playing this game with each other.
We really don’t see a limit to what
we can do.”
The excitement has shown
throughout training camp and two
preseason games.

New coach makes big impact on Raiders
By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NAPA — There’s no missing new
offensive coordinator Hue Jackson
and his loud voice at Oakland Raiders
practice.
Whether it’s scolding his offense,
trash-talking the defense or offering
instructions, Jackson provides the
soundtrack to the daily grind of train-
ing camp practices.
“Everybody talks about my style.
I’m kind of an in-your face guy,”
Jackson said Thursday. “I coach with
a lot of energy. The most important
thing is I’m looking for a result.”
Whether that intensity and enthusi-
asm will lead to positive results on the
field is one of the biggest questions
for the Raiders this season.
Jackson spoke to the media on
Thursday for the first time since being
hired in January. He said he is looking
to run a balanced offense with
Oakland’s “prime-time” players, he
wants to create a “bully” of an
offense, and that he plans to turn the
Raiders back into the winning fran-
chise they are supposed to be.
The move to hire Jackson and give
established veteran starters at every
position and quality young depth
behind them, has allowed just 214
yards per game. The 49ers rank
fourth in the league in total defense
and are second in passing defense.
Even fourth-year defensive coor-
dinator Greg Manusky, never one
for hyperbole, admits that he’s feel-
ing pretty good about his unit head-
ing into Saturday’s exhibition game
against the cross-bay rival Oakland
Raiders.
Since switching to a 3-4 system in
2005, the 49ers have been gradually
building their defense to the point
they now feel it’s ready to push the
team back into the playoffs for the
first time since 2002.
“I feel comfortable that these
guys know exactly what I want
now,” Manusky said. “They under-
stand the system. Now we’re just
getting into the details of the way
him the play-call-
ing duties that
head coach Tom
Cable had last
year was one of
many this offsea-
son aimed at
turning around a
struggling unit.
Hue Jackson Perhaps the only
one more impor-
tant was the trade for Jason Campbell
to take over as starting quarterback
from former No. 1 overall pick
JaMarcus Russell.
“He’s brought so much to this team,
especially offensively,” Campbell
said. “His mindset. His attitude. He
pushes everybody each and every
play. There’s not a day off, there’s not
a play off. In order to be a champion
in life, you’ve got to work like one.
That’s what he preaches every day, to
work like a champion.”
Jackson pushed the defense as well
as the offense, as his trash-talking
serves as motivation for the defenders
who take great pleasure in stopping
Jackson’s group during practice.

now has the

sonnel to attack
Greg Manusky from all angles.
Though coaches
are keeping the game plan mostly
vanilla during the preseason, the
49ers still have shown glimpses of
the speed and aggression opponents
can expect to face this season.
Four different San Francisco line-
backers have preseason sacks, and
that unit as a whole — led by All-
Pro Patrick Willis — promises to be
one of the NFL’s best this year.
The defensive tone was punctuat-
ed on the third play from scrimmage
during last week’s 15-10 victory
back to Jackson while running it back.
“His impact has been great,”
Asomugha said. “It’s been great thus
far. The offense has really taken a lik-
ing to him as a leader. What he’s done
with Jason and the offense has been
great because what he does is he plays
to the player’s strengths. It’s not just
let’s throw anything out there and let’s
get it done, he’s going to put guys in
position to make the most out of their
talent.”
Jackson spent the past two seasons
as quarterbacks coach in Baltimore,
helping Joe Flacco develop into an
NFL starter. He also has been offen-
sive coordinator in Atlanta and
Washington and coached receivers in
Cincinnati during a long career as an
NFL assistant.
The players in Oakland welcomed
him immediately, offering praise all
offseason for his energy and the way
he holds them accountable for their
mistakes.
“Sometimes you can go places and
people put up a stop sign until they get
to know you,” Jackson said. “Our

for because the bottom line is we want
to win, and we expect to win here.
over Minnesota, when Willis blitzed
up the middle, bowled over a
would-be blocker and sacked quar-
terback Brett Favre for a 10-yard
loss.
“We’ve really changed up our
whole scheme,” Spikes said. “When
I first got here, teams didn’t have to
worry about having a blitz pickup
until third down. Now you never
know when it may be coming. We
can go three straight downs of
blitzes. We’ve got the guys and
schemes to do it. (Opponents) are
going to have to play it honest and
be aware of who’s coming at all
times. That’s the beauty of the 3-4
system.”
Lining up next to Willis at inside
linebacker, Spikes has been an inte-
gral part of that system since joining
the 49ers as a free agent in 2008. As
the oldest member of the defense at
age 33, the two-time Pro Bowler has
And that’s the difference. There is an
expectation here. The Raiders are sup-
posed to win. And that is our expecta-
tion and that’s what we are going to
do.”
That has not happened in recent
years as the Raiders have gone an
NFL-worst seven seasons with at least
11 losses. They had one of the worst
offenses in the league during a 5-11
campaign last season. They were sec-
ond-to-last in the league in scoring
with 197 points and gained the sec-
ond-fewest yards.
The team showed some improve-

midway through the season, scoring
5.8 more points and gaining more
than 100 additional yards of offense
per game in the final seven contests
started by Bruce Gradkowski and
Charlie Frye.
But the team acquired Campbell
from Washington during the draft to
take over the offense that Jackson
believes has plenty of talent with run-

seen a promising unit grow up
around him.
After four consecutive years of
finishing 24th or lower in the NFL
in total defense, the 49ers have
ranked 13th and 15th the past two
seasons and are poised for a climb
this year.
The talent is there to make it hap-
pen. Five defensive starters have
been to the Pro Bowl at some point
in their careers. Willis and defensive
end Justin Smith both made it last
year.
“Everybody dropped their egos at
the door and we all have a better
idea of what’s expected of us,”
Spikes said. “Everybody’s playing

what to do, and we’ve learned now

strong opening drive for a touchdown
last week in Dallas as the Raiders
showed signs of clicking.
Jackson is looking to see more
improvement this week against San
Francisco.
“We’re trying to build a bully here,”
Jackson said. “We want to go back
and take our football team and under-
stand what the Raiders tradition is. I
think every player that wears that hel-
met understands what we’re trying to
build here each and every day, and it’s
about competing. It’s about going out

taking that challenge.”
Notes: CB Chris Johnson (ham-

not play Saturday against the 49ers. ...
Coach Tom Cable said Campbell and
the starting offense will likely play
into the third quarter Saturday. Bruce

Oakland can’t finish off Cleveland sweep

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CLEVELAND — The dog days of summer
have been unkind to the Cleveland Indians,
who got a needed lift from slumping Matt
LaPorta and a couple hundred four-legged
fans.
LaPorta hit a go-ahead two-run homer to
help Justin Masterson (5-12) win for only the
second time in 10 starts as Cleveland broke a
five-game losing streak with a 3-2 win over
the Oakland Athletics on Thursday night.
It came on “Puppypalooza Night,” a promo-
tion in which fans bought tickets for their pet
dogs.
The Indians doggedly clawed back to avoid

a three-game sweep, snap a five-game losing
streak and win for the fourth time in 17
games.
LaPorta hit the first pitch thrown to him
from Vin Mazzaro (6-6) with two outs in the
sixth inning to put Cleveland ahead 3-2.
Trevor Crowe lined a two-out single to left.
Then LaPorta, 0 for 5 in his career against the
right-hander, broke a 4 for 44 (.091) slump
with his eighth homer.
A few woofs of approval along with a gen-
uine bark or two were heard from the crowd
of 11,826. That included 269 canines, accord-
ing to an Indians spokesman.
Chris Perez, the Indians’ fourth pitcher,
worked 1 2-3 innings for his 16th save in 20
chances.
Masterson gave up five hits and two runs
over six innings for his first win in four starts
since Aug. 4. The right-hander improved to 1-
3 in five starts against AL West opponents,
including an 11-0 defeat to Oakland on April
25 in which he gave up seven runs in four
innings.
Gabe Gross’ two-out bloop single to left put
the Athletics ahead 1-0 in the second inning.
Michael Brantley tied it with an RBI single
in the fifth, when the Athletics also played fine
defense.
Shortstop Cliff Pennington went into the
hole to backhand LaPorta’s sharp grounder,
then bounced a throw across the diamond that
was scooped up by first baseman Daric Barton
for the out.
Luis Valbuena followed with a sinking liner
that center fielder Coco Crisp caught at his
shoetops. With Brantley on second after a sin-
gle by Asdrubal Cabrera, left fielder Jack
Cust, normally a designated hitter, made a
diving grab of Shin-Soo Choo’s bid for a
bloop RBI single.
Kevin Kouzmanoff put Oakland ahead 2-1
with a two-out RBI double in the sixth.
Mazzaro gave up three runs and seven hits
over 6 1-3 innings to fall to 0-4 in six starts
since July 29.

could step up to the position,”

Ballard said.
Now, Ballard is hoping to open the
passing game. Last season, the
Cougars became predictable when it
came to the aerial attack. Ballard is
hoping an offseason working out
and working in the Cougars’ system
will give him the confidence he
needs to be a leader.
“[Seaton] knows our packages.
He’s worked a lot on the throwing
game,” Ballard said. “We’re looking
to expand [our passing game].
Throw it a little more.”
To that end, receivers Augustine
Arroyo and newcomer David Flores,
along with tight end Dominic Fama,
are expected to be more involved in
the offensive this year as well.

returning center Colin Williams.
While undersized, the Cougars’
front is very rarely pushed around.
Using superior technique and execu-

prising unknowing opponents.
“They’re coming around,” Ballard
said. “We’re undersized, but that’s
normal. … Size doesn’t matter. It’s
about playing with heart and charac-
ter.”

Ballard, however, is expecting big

“Nielsen is in between both of them

very accurate in his mid-range passes.
He reads the defense pretty well. I

If Nielsen is not playing quarterback,
Poti said he can line him up at tight end

move to a tackle position this season.
“He’s a pretty solid offensive line-

Fusimalohi may also spend some

“He has good hands, good feet.”

Naturally startling
By Christy Lemire
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
“The Last Exorcism” is one of the
scariest movies to come along in a
long time — until the last five min-
utes or so, when it completely falls
apart.
Really, that’s about how quickly it
all collapses. Director Daniel
Stamm’s faux documentary starts
out with deadpan delivery and a dry
sense of humor, then it turns rivet-
ing, then truly frightening, then just
plain silly. It’s like it morphs from
being a Christopher Guest movie to
“The Blair Witch Project” — as if
writers Huck Botko and Andrew
Gurland didn’t know where to go,
so they went over the top.
Until then, the filmmakers keep
you guessing as to what’s real and
what’s imagined, what’s a disturb-
ing mental disorder and what’s
actually demonic possession. And
the fact that this Eli Roth produc-
tion uses all unknown actors helps
us get sucked into this eerie world.
Evangelical Louisiana preacher
Cotton Marcus (Patrick Fabian) has
been performing exorcisms for the
past 25 years but he knows
they’re all a sham. He long
ago lost his faith — if he
ever had any, that is —
and for a while has
had no qualms about
taking money from
true believers in the
name of supporting
his own family. But
now, with his con-
science weighing
on him, he
decides to let

Grade:
come behind the scenes to expose
his tricks as he “performs” one last
exorcism.
And it truly is a performance.
Cotton is hugely charismatic, a nat-
ural showman, and he’s all too
happy to divulge how he uses his
iPod to make evil groaning sounds,
or how he gets a puff of smoke to
come out of his crucifix at a climac-
tic moment. But
he’s not arro-
gant about
i t ,
which is key: He’s engaging and
confident but never so full of him-
self that he’s off-putting. Fabian
finds the balance in his character’s
conflicting motivations, which is
crucial to allowing us to go along
with him on this tried-and-true one
last job.
Randomly, he selects a letter from
the Sweetzer family living in fic-
tional, rural Ivanwood. There,
teenage daughter Nell (the extraor-
dinary Ashley Bell) has been acting
strangely and the livestock are
being slaughtered. Her father, Louis
(Louis Hertham), a serious funda-
mentalist, begs Cotton to purge the
demon he thinks has possessed his
innocent little girl. Her younger
brother, Caleb (Caleb Landry
Jones, creepy in his stillness) isn’t
shy about telling the reverend and
his camera crew he wants them to
go away.
Cotton breezes in, works his
magic and breezes out. Or so he
thinks. In that classically frus- course, we have to go with this one

Films about
possession
By Christy Lemire
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — “The Last
Exorcism” follows the increasingly
disturbing behavior of a teenage
girl living on a remote Louisiana
farm who may — or may not — be
possessed by some sort of demon.
Strange things have been happen-
ing, prompting her deeply religious
father to call upon a famous preach-
er to rid her body of what he
assumes must be an evil spirit.
It’s some of the most startling
stuff you’ll see in scary movies. But
there are various kinds of posses-
sion, lots of examples in film of
people’s bodies being taken over,
often in the name of laughs instead
of thrills. Here are five movies
about possession — demonic and
otherwise — that’ll take hold of
you:
• “The Exorcist” (1973): Of
first. The imagery is iconic: the
soup, the rumbling bed and those
profane words coming out of sweet
little Linda Blair’s mouth. William
Friedkin’s film received 10 Oscar
nominations and won two (for
William Peter Blatty’s screenplay
and for sound), and it was the first
horror film to be nominated for best
picture. Even today, when horror
movies feature much more graphic
violence, “The Exorcist” chills to
the bone, mainly because the mere
idea of a 12-year-old girl being pos-
sessed by the devil is so disturbing.
This is still one of the scariest
movies ever made, if not THE
scariest. But it has tough competi-
tion from ...
• “The Shining” (1980): One of
Stanley Kubrick’s most visually
striking films, based on the Stephen
King novel (although King himself
was famously unhappy with it). The
sense of isolation out there at that
big, rambling Overlook Hotel — in
the snow, in the dead of winter — is
enough to make you feel uneasy,
but the idea that supernatural spirits
in the place could take over a man’s
body and prompt him to try and kill
his wife and young son is just terri-
fying. There’s nowhere to run.
Kubrick was a master at freaking
you out with camera angles, light-
ing and pacing, but the film’s surre-
al imagery — the look on Jack
Nicholson’s face alone — remains
haunting three decades later.
• “All of Me” (1984): A great
showcase for Steve Martin’s
extreme gift of physical comedy
and Lily Tomlin’s brainy zaniness.
Martin makes you believe he’s truly

THE DAILY JOURNAL
MUSEUM GOTTA SEE ‘UM
By Susan Cohn
DAILY JOURNAL SENIOR CORRESPONDENT
For many, tie-dyed fabrics are linked inextricably to the
'60s, hippies and Flower Power, but the tie-dye technique
existed long before it was considered groovy and is now
making its reappearance in high-end international fashion.
With "To Dye For: A World Saturated in Color," San
Francisco's de Young Museum explores the unique art of
tie-dye, honed from pre-historic to modern times by cul-
tures spanning the globe. Tie-dye is just one example of
the resist-dye method, an inclusive term used for the
process of dyeing textiles to form patterns by preventing
dye from reaching specific areas of the cloth. Methods of
resist dyeing include tie-dye, stitch-resist, batik or wax-
resist dyeing, stencil-resist, mordant-resist and ikat (warp-
or weft-resist dyeing).
The fabricated textiles on display are intriguing: a tunic
from the Wari-Nasca culture of pre-Hispanic Peru (A.D.
500–900), a Mongolian felt rug from the 15th–17th centu-
ry, a recently rediscovered ceremonial cloth (kumo) from
the T'boli people of Mindanao, Philippines, and a group of
20th-century kerchiefs from the Dida people of the Ivory
Coast. These historical pieces are contrasted with works
from contemporary Bay Area artists like Judith Content,
Ana Lisa Hedstrom, Angelina DeAntonis and Yoshiko
Wada. Also shown are an elegant tie-dye evening gown
from Rodarte's 2009 collection and an ikat trench coat
from Oscar de La Renta's 2005 collection, both looks fore-
shadowing the current spring/summer trend of tribal-
infused fashions such as Dries Van Noten's and Gucci's
ikats and Proenza Schouler's and Calvin Klein's tie-dyes.
Textile curator Jill D'Alessandro explains, "To Dye For
not only highlights the museum's impressive permanent
collection of textiles, but also shows how cultures across
the world have used similar techniques for centuries—
with results that are sometimes similar and at other times
startlingly different. The end result is a stunning array of
textures, patterns and color."

Govt.says Gulf seafood safe,now consumers decide By Michelle Locke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OAKLAND — Shawn Mattiuz, manager of
the Hapuku Fish Shop in Market Hall, a col-
lection of upscale food purveyors in
Oakland’s bustling Rockridge district, has
been watching the Gulf seafood saga play out
in the ice-cooled trays of his display cases.
For a few days after the oil spill turned into
a crisis this spring, demand stalled as “every-
body freaked out,” he said. Since then, he says
concern has died down and he’s selling about
the same amount of Gulf shrimp as he did pre-
spill.
“I get a lot of questions about it, definitely.
They want to know if it’s regulated,” says
Mattiuz. “The truth of the matter is from
everything that I’ve read, it’s more highly reg-
ulated now than it ever has been.”
More Gulf waters are reopening to fisher-
men, and government officials say seafood
cleared for sale has been thoroughly vetted.
Whether consumers are buying those assur-
ances — and the fish — remains to be seen.
Nationally, an Associated Press-GfK poll
that surveyed 1,007 adults nationwide
between Aug. 11-16 found that 54 percent did
not trust the seafood.

THE DAILY JOURNAL
a number of upscale restaurants in the San
Francisco Bay area and elsewhere, says his
business has begun to grow again after a few
lean months. “And the shrimp has been noth-
ing less than spectacular lately,” he said.
Ann Cashion, co-owner of Johnny’s
Halfshell in Washington, D.C., one of Galle’s
clients, sees concerns about Gulf seafood
safety fading.
“I find that people aren’t even asking right
now. It was more on top of people’s brains
when the oil was still flowing,” she said.
Cashion believes the testing is thorough,
particularly because state officials are
involved. “The state of Louisiana and the Gulf
Coast in general has so much to lose if there
is any kind of problem with any seafood that
gets through inspection, so I know the inspec-
tion is going to be thorough and is going to err
on the side of ’Let’s don’t take any chances,”’
she said.
Not everyone shares that confidence in Gulf
seafood, which accounts for about 2 percent
of overall U.S. seafood consumed.
“I would say that I always have a skeptical
eye toward government regulation and gov-
ernment certification of things,” said Genie
Gratto, an Oakland food blogger. “It’s been

Eggs in the raw? Experts say give them a pass
By Stephanie Reitz
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HARTFORD, Conn. — Experts
have some simple advice when it
comes to eating runny eggs these
days: Run away.
With salmonella concerns trigger-
ing the recall of more than a half-bil-
lion eggs in more than a dozen states,
warnings are becoming more dire
every day against eating undercooked
yolks and translucent egg whites.
But what’s a home cook to do,
especially when hit by cravings for
eggs Benedict, pasta carbonara,
homemade Caesar dressing or other
dishes that call for raw or only slight-
ly cooked eggs?
There’s no one answer for every
recipe, but cooking and food safety
experts agree on a few basics to help
keep foodies in the kitchen and out of
the hospital.
Don’t eat any questionable eggs —
cooked or otherwise — especially if
they’re part of the recall, but even if
they’re not on that list but are cracked
or have been sitting in the refrigera-
tor for a while (eggs remain fresh for
about a month after purchase).
“Eggs are cheap. Throw them
away. It’s that simple,” said Brad
Barnes, an associate dean at the
Culinary Institute of America in
Hyde Park, N.Y.
When frying or scrambling eggs,
they must be cooked to a temperature
of 160 F. This means about 2 to 3
minutes per side for a fried egg, or
until solid for scrambled. A digital
Eggs are pictured for sale at a Washington supermarket.
instant thermometer is the best way
of knowing when you’ve hit the
proper temperature. For fried eggs,
take a break from sunny-side up and
try eggs over hard: fried on one side,
then flipped and fried well on the
other.
Mopping up oozing yolks with
toast? Bad idea. Consider making
hard-boiled eggs rather than soft by
WEEKEND JOURNAL
gently simmering them for about 15
minutes. Hard-boiled eggs last about
a week in the refrigerator.
As for poached eggs, a little longer
is a little better. Though most recipes
suggest short cooking times in bare-
ly simmering water, for safety it’s
best to let the egg go for about 5 min-
utes at a gentle boil.
Drinking raw eggs for a protein
REUTERS
boost? Even worse idea, given the
risk of salmonella and its violent
nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain
and temporary residency in the bath-
room.
“We’ve got enough issues. Who
needs to be barfing because of raw
eggs?” asked Douglas Powell, an
associate professor of food safety at
Kansas State University and author
Friday • Aug. 27, 2010 21
of BarfBlog.com, which highlights
food-handling problems in the news
and in popular culture.
He advises cooks to use a food
thermometer in their frittatas, quich-
es and other egg dishes — and, in
fact, when preparing meat or any-
thing that poses dangers when under-
cooked.
But what’s a foodie to do when
raw egg is essential to a recipe, as in
mayonnaise and carbonara? Take a
tip from Paul Stern, who cooks for
the Hole in the Wall Gang Camp, an
Ashford, Conn., camp for seriously
ill children, many with compromised
immune systems.
Last year, they cracked about 300
shell eggs every morning. This year,
the camp switched (before the recall)
to pasteurized liquid egg product.
“I wouldn’t be consuming or serv-
ing raw eggs any more than I’d be
eating or serving raw chicken,” said
Stern.
As the name implies, pasteurized
egg product — usually sold in car-
tons near the milk — has been gently
heated to kill off pathogens, meaning
it should be safe to consume even
when not fully cooked. It’s not a per-
fect substitution, but for most home
cooks it should do the job just fine.
“It’s not exactly the same as a
fresh egg, of course, but certainly in
this instance — and I’m sure they’ll
have this situation cleaned up pretty
rapidly — I think everybody should
be able to make do for a few days,”
said Barnes.

“We’re not saying that the seafood is

ing questions about the government’s pro-
cedures, their scientific procedures and
their transparency.” One issue is whether
government standards are strict enough to
protect vulnerable populations, she said.
“We want to make sure that the govern-
ment is setting up a robust seafood safety
testing program that will be able to protect

that’s how long this problem is likely to

Because of strict adherence to proce-

Icy treats become sweet trend
By Dorie Turner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ATLANTA — The line of people
in the sweltering gas station parking
lot grows longer as the sun beats
down. They aren’t here for gas.
One-by-one, each person steps up
to a small cart festooned with a mul-
ticolored umbrella and is handed
what they’ve all come miles to get
— what they probably have been
craving all day: a frozen pop.
And not the red, purple and
orange sugary pops from childhood,
either. These sweets are full of
unexpected ingredients like car-
damom, cilantro, lavender and gin-
ger. They’re iced tea mixed with
lemonade — called an Arnold
Palmer — or banana pudding with
chunks of vanilla wafers.
Meet the King of Pops, as he’s
known to the throngs of people who
stop by his cart in Atlanta each
week to buy ice pops loaded with
fresh fruit in delectable combina-
tions. Some show up with out-of-
town guests, while other bring cool-
ers full of dry ice so they can tote
dozens home.
“My favorite thing right now is
talking to everyone,” said Steven
Carse, 26, who started the King of
Pops cart last year when he was laid
off from his job as an analyst with
AIG in suburban Atlanta.
“Everyone’s usually pretty excit-
ed, or at least in a good mood, if
they’re coming to get a popsicle,” he
said. “You don’t get too many peo-
ple that are super mad at the world,
so you get people at their best
instead of their worst.”
First, there was the cupcake.
Then, the doughnut. Now, fancy
frozen pops — both purchased and
homemade — are taking their turn
as the favorite sweet treat of adults
looking for a little nostalgia and
some tongue-tingling flavors.
Pop shops from Austin, Texas, to
Nashville, Tenn., to Brooklyn, N.Y.,
have developed cult followings,
while carts have become staples in
farmers markets in Portland,
Oregon and Los Angeles.
Shoppers at Williams-
Sonoma, Bed, Bath &
Beyond and Target can pick
up an array of pop molds,
from rocket ships to rab-
bits. And daring cooks
can select
recipes
from sev-
eral recent
cookbooks
or from
dozens of
recipes

sites such as

finalized working agreement.
Superintendent Craig Baker also supported
the idea.
All three emphasized while this separates
the school when it comes to liability, it does
not separate the two as partners in serving the
children of the community.
Reaching that decision is one of the least
contentious of the memorandum of under-
standing discussion. Fundraising has been a
driving factor in this conversation.
Working as a city to support all seven
schools has been a goal for numerous years
for the San Carlos Education Foundation. At
the same time, individual schools did smaller
fundraising simultaneously. The CLC’s suc-
cess in fundraising has caused concerns in the
community.
Currently before all the San Carlos schools,
including CLC, is an agreement that caps an
individual school’s fundraising at $100,000
done in the fall to benefit from the San Carlos
Education Foundation community-wide
effort.
Basically, the board has publicly announced
its desire to have the CLC, and all San Carlos
public schools for that matter, to leave large
fundraising to the San Carlos Education
Foundation. It encouraged the CLC to back

claims state they collected more material than
they really did.
“Tung Tai Group attempted to collect $1
million in fraudulent and fictitious state reim-

Jerry Brown said in a statement. “This brazen

off on its independent efforts in favor of pool-
ing efforts. If the CLC supports the agree-
ment, the board noted a willingness to work
more cooperatively when finalizing the agree-
ment.
Mahoney has been open to the idea.
While signing on could mean a loss of fund-
ing in the short term, he said the CLC could
benefit in the long run financially and from
continuing to work with the larger community
if the foundation aggressively raises funds as
planned.
In addition, the CLC Board recently agreed
to contract accounting services with EdTech
rather than the district. The change does come
with a $20,000 net increase in cost. Mahoney
noted the change will allow him to dedicate
more time to other school needs while it
should decrease stress in the working relation-
ship with the district. Accounting changes
should be in place by Oct. 1.
An estimated 909 charter schools are active
in California right now. Of those, an estimat-
ed 550 are incorporated as nonprofits, said
Vicky Waters, director of media relations for
the California Charter Schools Association.
The CLC governing board is scheduled to
vote on the agreement with the foundation
next week. A working agreement between the
school and the district is hoped to be finalized
by the end of September.

Investigators with the Department of Toxic

CalRecycle to discrepancies between Tung
Tai’s claims and the records kept by Golden
State Records and Recycling, a company that
collects and transfers electronics and metals to
Tung Tai.
An example provided by the attorney gener-
al’s office shows that Tung Tai submitted
reimbursement claims to CalRecycle for
555,000 pounds of material, but the collec-
tor’s records indicate it delivered 62,000
pounds to Tung Tai.
The state did not pay Tung Tai for the false

The recovered paintings were stolen in 1988

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
NORMA M. COLEY
Case Number 120359
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: Norma M. Coley. A Pe-
tition for Probate has been filed by: Mari-
lyn J. Budelov in the Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo. The
Petition of Probate requests that Marilyn
J. Budelov be appointed as personal rep-
resentative to administer the estate of
the decedent.
The petition requests the decedent’s will
and codicils, if any, be admitted to pro-
bate. The will and any codicils are availa-
ble for examination in the file kept by the
court.
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 14,
2010 at 9:00 a.m., Dept: 28, Superior
Court of California, County of San Mateo,
400 County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063. If you object to the granting of the
petition, you should appear at the hear-
ing and state your objections or file writ-
ten objections with the court before the
hearing. Your appearance may be in
person or by your attorney. If you are a
creditor or a contingent creditor of the
decedent, you must file your claim with
the court and mail a copy to the personal
representative appointed by the court
within four months from the date of first
issuance of letters as provided in Pro-
bate Code section 9100. The time for fil-
ing claims will not expire before four
months from the hearing date noticed
above. You may examine the file kept by
the court. If you are a person interested
in the estate, you may file with the court
a Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.
