OFFICIALS REVEAL AMBITIOUS $24 BILLION PLAN FOR ENDING THE

Cities in California are ready to
sue the state over a redevelopment
trailer bill the Legislature passed
last month that opponents say con-
tains unconstitutional sales and
property tax clawbacks.
Last week, the League of
California Cities board unanimous-
ly voted to sue the state over the
constitutional validity of Assembly
Bill 1484, legislation that authorizes
the state Department of Finance to
clawback city sales taxes and city
property taxes to satisfy the states
funding demands imposed on legal-
ly separate redevelopment succes-
sor agencies by AB 1484.
The Legislature approved the bill
June 27.
The legislation demands local
successor agencies, formed after the
dismantling of RDAs, to make pay-
ments to local taxing agencies, such
as the county or schools, or have
sales tax payments suspended to
cities by the state Board of
Equalization.
A deadline was set for July 12 for
cities to make the payments but has
now been pushed back to the middle
of August. The state dissolved the
agencies to tackle its decit last
year and anticipates netting more
than $3 billion by the action.
Redevelopment agencies were
used by cities to build affordable
housing, clean up blighted areas
and create jobs.
The process has been more than a
little confusing, local ofcials told
the Daily Journal.
It is totally understandable the
confusion in this area. The changes
in redevelopment are unclear for all.
The deadlines keep changing, the

The Johnston House as it sat in 1965, top, and how it looks today.The Half Moon Bay landmark is open for free
tours the third Saturday of each month from 11 p.m to 3 p.m.
By Sally Schilling
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Residents of Half Moon Bay all
know that white house on the hill.
People cruising south of downtown
on Highway 1 can spot the Johnston
House nestled in the rolling hills to
the east.
Many people venture to these hills
for a peaceful walk or bike ride. But
they are often unaware of the mys-
tery, romance and long history of
the White House of Half Moon Bay.
Built around 1885, the Johnston
House was the rst wood house on
the coast south of San Francisco.
The house was originally the
romantic gesture of a wealthy
American man, James Johnston, to
his Californiano wife Petra de Jara.
After its short heyday from 1855
to 1861 the Johnston home
turned into a symbol of despair. The
house was abandoned some time
after World War II and over time it
became the mysterious haunted
house to passers-by.
A pair of Smithsonian historians
stumbled upon the house and vowed
to resurrect the glory and history of
the place. Today the house is a sense
of communal pride for many dedi-
cated volunteers.

Man charged for

Goat man in Utah
mountains identified as hunter
SALT LAKE CITY A man spotted
dressed in a goat suit among a herd of
wild goats in the mountains of northern
Utah has been identied as a hunter
preparing for a Canadian archery season.
After a hiker spotted the so-called goat
man on July 15 in the mountains above
Ogden, about 40 miles north of Salt Lake
City, wildlife ofcials said they wanted to
talk to the person to be certain he was
aware of the dangers as hunting season
approaches.
They speculated he might have been an
extreme wildlife enthusiast who just
wanted to get as close as possible to the
goats. A few days after the spotting, state
wildlife authorities received an anony-
mous call from an agitated man who
simply said, Leave goat man alone. Hes
done nothing wrong.
This week, however, the mystery was
solved.
Phil Douglass of the Utah Division of
Wildlife Resources said he received a call
Monday from a 57-year-old Southern
California hunter who explained he was
merely trying out his goat suit in prepara-
tion for a mountain goat hunt in Canada
next year.
He gave me enough details about the
area and the situation that it made me feel
condent this was him, Douglass said
Tuesday.
In talking to him, I felt he was very
knowledgeable, a very experienced
hunter. Hes hunted internationally,
Douglass added. My concern all along
was that this person needed to understand
the risks, and certainly after talking to
him, I felt he was doing the best he could
to understand and mitigate those risks ...
He was simply preparing for a hunt.
The man did not identify himself,
Douglass said, noting the hunter was con-
cerned for his safety after widespread
media coverage of the sighting, rst
reported by the Standard-Examiner of
Ogden.
Coty Creighton, 33, spotted the goat
man July 15 during his hike. He said he
came across a herd, but noticed some-
thing odd about one goat that was trailing
behind the rest.
I thought maybe it was injured,
Creighton said last week. It just looked
odd.
He said he pulled out binoculars to get
a closer look at the goats about 200 yards
away and was shocked. The man
appeared to be acting like a goat while
wearing a crudely made costume, which
had fake horns and a cloth mask with cut-
out eye holes, Creighton said.
We were the only ones around for
miles, he said. It was real creepy.
Douglass said 60 permits will be issued
for goat hunting season in that area,
which begins in September, and he had
worried the man in the goat suit might be
accidentally shot or could be attacked by
a real goat.

South Citys school serving expelled stu-
dents will be housed at the Boys and Girls
Club this fall a change both say will offer
more electives and nicer facilities for the teens
attending.
On Thursday, the South San Francisco
Unied School District Board of Trustees will
vote on an agreement with the Boys and Girls
Club of North San Mateo County to jointly
provide services for Foxridge Community
Day School at 201 W. Orange Ave. in South
San Francisco. Under the agreement, the pro-
gram for expelled students would move to the
Boys and Girls Club and the two groups
would split responsibilities. For the Boys and
Girls Club, it gives teens access to facilities
that would otherwise be unused during school
hours. For the district, the partnership will
give students access to improved facilities and
electives.
Its a match made it heaven, said Sharon
Dolan, executive director of the Boys and
Girls Club of North San Mateo County.
Trustee Maurice Goodman described it as a
welcomed change, adding the most recent facil-
ities and academic curriculum were subpar.
It was insulting, as a parent, as a board
member. Its always been on my radar,
Goodman said.
Foxridge Elementary opened in 1966. It was
one of two schools closed in 1992 after years
of declining enrollment and has since housed
students who were expelled from the districts
other schools.
Students in Foxridge have not had access to
a gym or electives, said Trustee Phil Weise.
Board President Judy Bush is also very
excited. The location is a more centralized
option for students.
I really believe (students) will be better
served, she said.
The Boys and Girls Club previously hosted
a county community school at the location. In
the fall, the county will be unveiling a newly
revamped, centrally located community
school. With that, Dolan said the facilities
would go unused, which she considered a big
loss. Over the spring, ofcials from both
organizations began to talk about using the
space.
We love having the teens around, said
Dolan, who said the facilities are most often
used after school.
After school, Foxridge students will also
have direct access to volunteer opportunities
often a requirement for high school stu-
dents. Together, the district and nonprot are
working to create elective opportunities for
students such as physical education, visual
arts and leadership.
Under the proposed agreement, which
runs from Aug. 1 through June 1, 2013, stu-
dents would attend school from 8 a.m. to 2
p.m. with 30 minutes for lunch at the Boys
and Girls Club of North San Mateo County
facility. Classes will take in the learning cen-
ter and the Foxridge staff will supervise stu-
dents at all times. Office equipment required
to run the school will be provided by the dis-
trict. The district will pay the Boys and Girls
Club $15,000 for the years use of the site,
$1,500 for supplies and $35 per hour for the
instructors salary starting Aug. 1. Foxridge
students will attend a get to know you
event with Boys and Girls Club staff. In
addition, students will be provided a club
membership and access to regular after-
school activities.
The agreement was previously approved by
the Boys and Girls Club board.
The board meets 7 p.m. Thursday, July 26 at
the District Ofce, 398 B St., South San
Francisco.

SACRAMENTO Californias ambitious
$24 billion plan for ending the states water
wars was unveiled Wednesday, but standing in
its way are unanswered questions and hurdles
that will take years to surmount if thats
even possible.
With fanfare, Gov. Jerry Brown and Interior
Secretary Ken Salazar touted a massive twin-
tunnel system to carry water from the
Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta to vast
farmlands and thirsty cities. The proposal also
includes plans for more than 100,000 acres of
oodplain and tidal marsh habitat restoration.
This plan is essential to stopping
California water wars, Salazar said about the
long-running ght among competing regions
for the essential resource.
But it seemed the plan only polarized
Californians, including some of Browns fel-
low Democrats.
Delta residents, environmental groups and
Northern California legislators said it calls for
costly construction before scientists can deter-
mine the impacts on the fragile delta ecosys-
tem, including its imperiled sh species such
as salmon and smelt.
Theres an effort to push this faster than the
science allows and before the facts and evi-
dence are developed, said Rep. George
Miller, D-Martinez.
During the announcement by Brown and
Salazar, dozens of opponents gathered on the
Capitol steps with signs reading kill the
canal and the tunnel will suck California
dry.

Two teens allegedly invade home,
bind 68-year-old man with duct tape
Two teenagers who allegedly bound and
robbed a 68-year-old man in his Daly City home
on Monday have been arrested, police said.
Just before noon, the suspects believed to
be a 14-year-old boy and an 18-year-old man
knocked on the door of a home in the rst block
of Poncetta Drive, Daly City police Sgt.
Michael Barton said.
When the victim answered the door, the sus-
pects knocked him down and bound him with
duct tape, Barton said.
The two suspects then stole an ATM card and
a laptop computer, and ed the scene in the vic-
tims car.
The victim was not injured in the robbery, and
was able to contact police after the suspects left,
Barton said.
The stolen vehicle was spotted later that day
by police in San Francisco. The two suspects,
who were inside the car, were taken into cus-
tody.
They were questioned by Daly City police
and arrested on suspicion of robbery, burglary,
elder abuse and car theft.
The 18-year-old was identied as Jose
Rodriguez, and was and booked into San Mateo
County Jail. The 14-year-old, whose name has
been withheld because of his age, was booked
into the San Mateo County Youth Guidance
Center.
Man wanted for exposing himself
Police are on the lookout for a man driving a
black Camaro who exposed himself to a female
walking outside of the Pep Boys auto parts store
on Old County Road in San Carlos Monday
evening.
At approximately, 5:40 p.m., sheriffs
deputies responded to the store at 1087 Old
County Road after a woman reported the man
pulled up next to her and exposed himself to her.
She yelled at the driver, which caused him to
ee west on Brittan Avenue, according to
police.
The man was described as white or Hispanic,
35 or 40 years old, with a shaved head. The
Camara was a newer model with a partial
California license plate of 6CTU, according to
police.

To ensure a vacant lot in a prime spot will be
developed into what San Bruno ofcials say is
a much-needed hotel, the City Council is mak-
ing moves toward purchasing the land.
During an update Tuesday evening, City
Manager Connie Jackson shared the details of
the citys bid to purchase the vacant lot south
of Jacks Restaurant, 1050 Admiral Court, and
north of Interstate 380. The city is moving for-
ward with a $1.4 million purchase. A $25,000
good faith payment was made, said Jackson.
The due diligence period ends Aug. 1 allowing
for the transaction to be completed by Aug.
15.
In the big picture, its better if we could
own that [land] ourselves to have total con-
trol, said Mayor Jim Ruane, who noted a
number of inquiries for hotel possibilities have
come in. I think its a good move for the city.
The city currently doesnt have any large
space for meetings or wedding receptions,
said Ruane. The city promised the public a
hotel, he added.
In December, the council voted against giv-
ing Riverside, Calif.-based Destination
Properties, LLC exclusive negotiating agree-
ments to develop a hotel. Instead, the city
learned another party was interested and
began entertaining the idea of purchasing the
land itself, which would give the city more
power in deciding what is ultimately built.
Jackson said acquiring the property will
allow the city more power in determining
which project ultimately lls the space. San
Bruno could benet from an all-suites hotel
with conference facilities, she said.
Paying for the site will come from one-time
funds like developer fees and taxes the city has
collected over the years, said Jackson.
Over the years, that area has been built up to
include the Crossings and then Jacks
Restaurant. A hotel has always been part of
the plan but the economic downturn slowed
possibilities.
Ruane previously said weighing the possi-
bility of purchasing the land would allow San
Bruno to nd the best t. He pointed to Jacks
Restaurant as a wonderful example of what
can happen when patient. Numerous restau-
rants were suggested for that site but never
quite t before a local family decided to open
Jacks, which has been well received since
opening last year.

The reportedly intoxicated driver who
collided into a disabled vehicle in
Millbrae last fall, killing a 19-year-old
college student and injuring himself and
several passengers, was sentenced to time
served Wednesday.
Dennis Dallas Leffew Jr., 43, previous-
ly pleaded not guilty to gross vehicular
manslaughter and drunk driving charges.
But on Tuesday, a different charge was
added misdemeanor driving under the
inuence. Leffew pleaded guilty to the
new charge and was sentenced to six
months in county jail but got credit for
eight months already served, said
Assistant District Attorney Morley Pitt.
An accident reconstruction specialist
hired by the defense found that even a
sober driver could not have avoided the
accident, said Pitt. Experts for the
California Highway Patrol came to the
same conclusion. As a result, Leffew
could not be consid-
ered negligent except
for the drunk driving
charge.
Sadly, what you
have is a drunk driv-
er with an unfortu-
nate outcome, said
Pitt.
Leffew surrendered
on an arrest warrant
in March in the
November 2011 death of Andrel Norcel
Gaines. Gaines mother spoke prior to
sentencing. While holding a photo of her
son, she asked Leffew to look at what was
taken from her and to consider her son
before ever drinking and driving, Pitt said.
Prosecutors took several months to
make a charging decision in the case
which is complicated by the fact the vehi-
cle carrying Gaines and several others was
in an accident just prior to Leffews car
striking it just after 1 a.m. Nov. 6.
Gaines, a student and basketball player
at Gavilan College in Gilroy, was a pas-
senger in a Cadillac traveling south on
Highway 101 north of Millbrae Avenue.
The group of four was heading home from
a night in San Francisco when the driver
lost control after swerving to avoid a tire in
the road, collided with the center divider
and stopped in the middle lane. Minutes
later, prosecutors say Leffew crashed his
Nissan 300ZX into the car, pushing it
down the highway for a distance.
Three other passengers inside the
Cadillac were injured. Gaines suffered a
traumatic head injury and remained on life
support until Nov. 18 when he was
removed. Leffew suffered a head injury,
severe facial cuts and broken bones,
according to his defense attorney Steven
Clark.
While in the hospital, a blood sample
placed his blood alcohol level at .12 per-
cent, according to the District Attorneys
Ofce. Leffew will also enter the rst
offenders program. He will be back in
court for a restitution hearing Oct. 16.

Three people connected with a San
Carlos marijuana growing operation
were sentenced to jail time and proba-
tion Wednesday.
Alexis Morgan Bennight, 58, John
Scott Breisch, 52, and Ryan Arthur
Schofield, 34, were sentenced
Wednesday in connection with growing
marijuana at 1340 Elm St. and 956
Terminal Way in San Carlos. Bennight
and Breisch were both given six months
in county jail and three years probation,
said Assistant District Attorney Morley
Pitt. Schoeld, who wasnt as involved
with the operation, was given 120 days
in county jail, he said. The trio will get
credit for time served, which ranges
from two to 12 days, and is due back in
court Aug. 31 for a
restitution hearing,
he said.
The marijuana-
growing operation
was discovered in
August 2011 after
tenants in a neigh-
boring warehouse
space on Terminal
Way in the industrial
area of San Carlos
notified the build-
ings owner about
the strong smell of
marijuana in the
area.
The owner then
contacted police to
conduct a civil stand-
by while he inspect-
ed the building,
according to the San
Mateo County
Sheriffs Ofce.
Upon entering the
building, officers
detained Breisch and
Schoeld who were
in the middle of dis-
mantling an indoor
marijuana grow
operation. As police detained the two
men, another suspect, Belmont spa
owner Bennight, arrived at the ware-
house and was also detained.
The San Mateo County Narcotics Task
Force then obtained search warrants for
both the warehouse and an associated
residence on the 1300 block of Elm

San Bruno school ofcials are hoping

The San Bruno Park School District

Wednesday on the discovery of hidden money at Californias
cash-strapped state parks department.

the scandal, saying it was the rst time hes

money.
When somebody comes and says, Hey,

here, thats better than saying, Whoops
we dont have the money, he said.
Nonprot groups were blindsided last

hold $53 million more than was previously disclosed, even as
they raised money to keep 70 state parks open past a July 1 clo-
sure deadline.

LONDON Mitt Romney a
one-term governor untested on the
worlds political stage faces
high stakes in the coming week
during visits to England, Israel and
Poland. Its a trip that amounts to
an international audition.
The Republican presidential can-
didate is seeking to persuade voters
back home to elect him their leader
in a complex, dangerous world.
And his trip will invite compar-
isons to Barack Obamas success-
ful overseas 2008 tour before he
won the White House.
Romney, whose decades in pri-
vate business gave him ample
exposure to international affairs,
hopes to prove that he is no novice
on foreign policy. At the same time
hell be highlighting a key part of
his resume the successful Salt
Lake City Olympics he managed
with a visit to the opening days
of the London Games. Hes also
planned a series of meetings and
photo events with political lead-
ers in the three countries hes visit-
ing in hopes of projecting an image
of leadership.
His itinerary is limited to a few
tightly controlled appearances in
countries that are close allies of the
United States, suggesting that
Romney knows there are risks as
well as potential benefits to his
trip.
Romney will be visiting two
countries in Europe, a region hes
spent most of his campaign criti-
cizing. Beyond that, hes certain to
face pressure to outline where he
stands on such weighty matters as
missile defense, Afghanistan troop
levels, violence raging in Syria, the
nuclear threat from Iran and the
Middle East peace process, putting
him on the spot to add details to a
foreign policy vision that so far has
been short on them.
He also faces the tricky task of
contrasting himself with Obama
while staying true to his promise
not to openly assail the president
while on foreign soil, honoring
longstanding tradition that
American politicians dont criti-
cize their government while
abroad.
Romney faces high stakes abroad

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Democrats
pushed a yearlong extension of tax
cuts for all but the highest-earning
Americans through the Senate on
Wednesday, giving President
Barack Obama and his party a sig-
nicant political victory on a meas-
ure that is fated to go no further in
Congress.
Senators approved the
Democratic bill by a near party-line
51-48 vote, with Vice President Joe
Biden presiding over the chamber in
case his vote was needed to break a
tie. Minutes earlier, lawmakers
voted 54-45 to kill a rival
Republican package that would
have included the best-off in the tax
reductions.
The $250 billion Democratic
measure would extend tax cuts in
2013 for millions of Americans that
otherwise would expire in January.
But it would deny those reductions
to the earnings of individuals
exceeding $200,000 yearly and of
couples surpassing $250,000.
With control of the White House
and Congress at stake in elections
less than four months off, passage
of the Democratic bill aligned the
Senate with Obamas tax-cutting
vision. Obama has made tax fair-
ness which includes tax increas-
es on the rich an overarching
theme of his re-election campaign,
and rejection of the measure would
have been an embarrassment for the
president and Senate Democrats.
The vote also served as a counter-
point to the GOP-run House, which
next week will approve tax cuts
nearly identical to the $405 billion
Republican plan the Senate rejected
Wednesday. And it lets Democrats
argue that only the GOP stands in
the way of tax cuts for millions of
Americans.
With the Senates vote, the
House Republicans are now the
only people left in Washington
holding hostage the middle-class
tax cuts for 98 percent of Americans
and nearly every small business
owner, Obama said in a written
statement after the vote.
House Speaker John Boehner, R-
Ohio, restated his plan for next
weeks vote, citing the Democratic
measures tax boosts on higher
earners.

House GOP rejects Obama
plan for offshore drilling
WASHINGTON In an elec-

Obamas energy policies, the
Republican-led House on
Wednesday voted to revoke Obamas
ve-year plan for offshore drilling,
replacing it with its own plan that
calls for more ambitious oil and gas
development off the U.S. coast.
The legislation will likely go
nowhere in the Senate and the White
House has issued a veto threat, but
as with the tax and regulatory bills
the House is also taking up this
month, it puts lawmakers on the
record on the issues that divide the
two parties.
Rep. Doc Hastings, R-Wash.,
chairman of the Natural Resources
Committee, said the bill would offer
lawmakers a choice between
Obamas restrictive plan and the far
more expansive Republican version
that opens up areas off the Atlantic
and southern California for drilling.
The Republican proposal passed
253-170 with 25 Democrats sup-
porting it. The House also voted
261-164 to reject the presidents
plan.

Breakaway Alawite state
may be Assads last resort
BEIRUT In the recent sectarian violence
in Syria, some observers see a grim pattern:
Alawite fighters from President Bashar
Assads minority sect, they say, are trying to
carve out a breakaway enclave for themselves
by driving out local Sunnis, killing entire fam-
ilies and threatening anybody who stays
behind.
The Alawite sect that makes up the back-
bone of Assads regime has historically been
centered in towns and villages of Syrias
mountainous Mediterranean coast. If the
regime falls, that heartland could become a
refuge for the community and even for
Assad himself from which to ght for sur-
vival against a Sunni majority that has long
resented their domination.
That would mean a bloody Balkanization of
Syrias 17-month-old conict, an ominous sce-
nario for a country that sits along the Middle
Easts most turbulent fault lines. Any attempt
to create a breakaway state could trigger a
wave of sectarian killings and have dangerous
repercussions in a region where many reli-
gious, ethnic and tribal communities have sep-
aratist aspirations.

WASHINGTON Relentless GOP criti-
cism of a 12-day-old remark about business
owners has taken a campaign toll on President
Barack Obama, forcing him to defend himself
and giving Republican Mitt Romney a break
from steady attacks.
The development has delighted
Republicans, who were eager to shift the cam-
paign focus from Romneys tax returns, over-
seas assets and Bain Capital record.
Acknowledging that the Republicans criti-
cisms were hitting a mark, Obamas team
rolled out two new TV ads this week in which
he employed for the rst time what many
Democrats consider a powerful tool: the presi-
dent talking directly into the camera and coun-
tering GOP claims.
Those ads taking my words about small
business out of context theyre at-out
wrong, Obama says in the newest ad.
Democrats say the direct to camera format
plays to the presidents strength, and they dont
think Romney can match it. But like any strat-
egy deployed 15 weeks before Election Day, it
might lose some of its impact over time.
In the immediate future, Democrats hope
Obamas response will help him move past the
ap about business owners. But Romney aides
kept up the pressure Wednesday, sponsoring
24 events on the topic while Romney was
overseas.
Democratic strategists acknowledged
Wednesday that Obama was being hurt, at
least a little, by Romneys repeated jabs at
comments the president made in Virginia on
July 13, which originally drew little notice.
If youve got a business, you didnt build
that, Obama said, in part. Somebody else
made that happen.
Most GOP attacks ignored the broader con-
text of the speech. In it, Obama discussed a
favorite theme: the claim that government-
assisted infrastructure including roads,
research and schools help sustain American
society, including private enterprise.
Romney and his allies have used the quote in
countless ads, videos, statements and confer-
ence calls, painting Obama as contemptuous of
hard-working entrepreneurs and business own-
ers.
Its a presidential topic so familiar that few
reporters or Obama critics took note of the spe-
cic remarks for a few days.
If you were successful, somebody along the
line gave you some help, Obama said in the
July 13 speech. He cited teachers and mentors
who helped create this unbelievable
American system that we have that allowed
you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and
bridges.
When we succeed, we succeed because of
our individual initiative, but also because we
do things together, he said.
Late on July 16, the Romney campaign
began a drumbeat of attacks quoting only the
line, If youve got a business, you didnt build
that.
Democrats responded cautiously at rst.
Eventually, aides began saying Obamas that
referred to the infrastructure he cited else-
where in the Virginia speech.
In an interview with a Florida TV station
that aired Friday a full week after the orig-
inal remarks Obama said: What I said was,
together we build roads and we build
bridges...Anybody who actually watched the
tape knows that was what I was referring to.
GOP puts Obama on defense

LONDON The widows of two Israeli
Olympians killed by Palestinian gunmen at
the 1972 Munich Olympics are urging spec-
tators to stage a silent protest during
Fridays opening ceremony for the London
Games.
Ankie Spitzer and Ilana Romano are
demanding that London organizers recognize
their husbands deaths and honor them at
Olympic Stadium 40 years after the slayings.
The two women have asked audience mem-
bers to stand in silence when International
Olympic Committee chief Jacques Rogge
rises to speak at Fridays ceremony. Since
Olympic organizers have rejected a moment
of silence for the 11 slain Israeli athletes and
coaches, the widows say the silent protest will
be a victory in their ght to have the men
remembered at the proper place and time.
They were not accidental tourists, Spitzer
told reporters Wednesday, her hoarse voice
rising with indignation. They came with
dreams and came home in cofns.
The 1972 Munich Olympics were the rst
held in Germany since the 1936 Olympics in
Berlin, and was designed to blot out the taint-
ed images of competition in Nazi Germany.
But in the second week, the Black September
militant group penetrated the laxly secured
village and took Israeli team members
hostage. Within a day of Sept. 5, 11 died.
The games were briey suspended, but the
Olympics were forever changed. Security
costs soared and just kept rising with every
games.
For Spitzer and Romano, it was a simpler
time. Ankie Spitzer and her fencing coach
husband, Andrei, had just had a daughter,
Anouk, who is also pressing the ght for the
silent protest. They say Andrei was thrilled to
be an Olympian and rmly believed in the
higher goals of the games.
Ilana Romano, meanwhile, had had a bad
feeling about her husband Yossefs trip to the
games.

Sequoia site of
laparoscopic hysterectomy
A Sequoia Hospital surgeon per-
formed the rst ever laparoscopic
hysterectomy procedure in which
no visible scar was left behind the
week of July 27, 2007.
RealHand High Dexterity instru-
ments allowed Dr. Kate OHanlan
to enter the patients abdomen
through a pre-existing scar the
belly button so that no addition-
al scars remained on the body. In
the past, laparoscopic surgeons
have used as many as ve incisions
to perform the operation.
It causes the patient less dis-
comfort, OHanlan said of the new
procedure, which has been termed
a Single Port Total Laparoscopic
Hysterectomy.
RealHand instruments were
designed with minimally invasive
surgery in mind. The RealHand
High Dexterity technology is
designed to mirror the surgeons
hand direction as well as provide
tactile feedback and greater dexter-
ity and precision, according to the
Cupertino-based Novare Surgical
Systems, which designed the
RealHand. When the surgeons
hand moves in one direction, the
tip of the instrument moves in the
same direction.
Its like having your own hand
inside the patients abdomen, said
OHanlan. I use the RealHand
technology as much as I can. It
allows for a lot more precision.
The hysterectomy was performed
in under 65 minutes; OHanlan also
removed the patients appendix
during the operation.

U-T San Diego
E
ven by Sacramentos appallingly low
standards, this scandal is a doozy:
The state Department of Parks and
Recreation has been sitting on $54 million in
untapped funds while claiming poverty and
seeking to close more than a quarter of the
278 state parks. The closings were averted,
mostly through painstaking, time-consuming
fundraising drives led by volunteer groups.
But its still awful that park supporters had to
do all that hard work because of bureaucrats
deceptions.
So far two top department executives have
been forced out over the scandal, which came
to light in an investigation of a secret,
improper vacation cashout program. More
heads could roll in coming days.
But now its time for the state investigation
to broaden to cover all 560 special funds in
the budget. Theyre believed to have more
than $33 billion. How many agencies, like
Parks and Recreation, have underreported
what theyre taking in from fees and various
sources? It seems extremely unlikely that
there is only one.
Given the cynical way Gov. Jerry Brown
has tried to rig passage of a tax measure on
the November ballot which would supply
billions in revenue that he needs to balance
the state budget he may not be inclined to
want to nd more evidence of an allegedly
broke state government sitting on cash
reserves. But we hope maybe against
hope that he wont stall this needed
inquiry.
A faux front
Editor,
I was recently considering all of the vacant
retail space in Burlingame, San Mateo and
other Peninsula cities. Many cities have ordi-
nances that prohibit retail space from being
converted to ofce space or some other non-
retail business.
I thought of a possible solution. A non-
retail business would be allowed to make the
conversion if it agreed to make a faux front
for actual retail businesses in the city. The
business would display the retailers mer-
chandise and address. The merchandise
would be rotated periodically, and neither
side would charge the other. This would be a
natural solution for book stores and clothing
stores but a challenge for restaurants and
those who sell perishable products.
It seems to be a win-win all around.
Retailers get increased visibility of their mer-
chandise. The new business gets street-level
ofce space. The city gets more sales tax rev-
enue from the increased pedestrian trafc
downtown.
I would be interested in what others think.

CalFresh in San Mateo County
Editor,
Thank you for focusing attention on
CalFresh (food stamps) in Michelle Durands
July 20 column (Getting carded). Over the
last ve years, CalFresh enrollment in San
Mateo County has increased from 14,500 to
41,000 individuals per year. Of these, more
than half are children. Despite this growth,
county residents are still going hungry and
relying on food banks and school lunches to
get by.
Some facts about hunger and CalFresh:
CalFresh can only be used to purchase
food. Alcohol, tobacco, even vitamins are off
the list, as are most prepared foods. A person
living in a vehicle or a rented room without
access to a kitchen cannot purchase hot soup
at a grocery store deli.
Since the start of the recession, the need
for food has increased sharply. Second
Harvest Food Bank provides food to one in
10 county residents and has seen the number
of people it serves monthly increase by near-
ly 50 percent over the last ve years. Since
2007, CalFresh enrollment has tripled in
Belmont, Burlingame, Millbrae and San
Bruno communities traditionally thought
of as middle-class communities.
Because of our countys high rents, our
friends and neighbors have even less money
for food than residents of less expensive
counties. Last year, Samaritan House staff
helped 11,000 individuals who were working
at least one job and often two or three, but
werent earning enough to keep food on the
table and a roof over their heads.
CalFresh helps the local economy. More
than 270 local grocery stores, markets and
mom and pop shops benet nancially from
CalFresh, as do all of their employees and
vendors.
In our wonderful county, where there is so
much afuence, there is also hunger and
we are committed to ensuring that every per-
son who is eligible, receives CalFresh so our
entire community can thrive. When the food
needs of a family or individual are met, they
lead healthier lives, learn more in school, are
more productive members of society and
contribute more to the local economy.

ongress has a plan, or at least has
arranged the steps, for dealing with
the countrys decit and debt prob-
lems. Come the end of the year, lawmakers
will send all of us over a scal cliff.
Among other things, cuts in income, divi-
dend and capital-gains taxes will expire.
Defense and domestic spending will be
whacked. All told, the approach would
reduce the countrys debt by a projected $8
trillion during the next decade, the federal
budget in balance by 2016.
A good thing? The word cliff points to
the likely pain, breaks and bruises.
The Congressional Budget Ofce reported
last week that in 2009, Americans paid the
lowest federal tax rate in three decades, an
average 17.4 percent. That points to the room
available for raising taxes. More, the Obama
White House hardly proposes going to excess
on higher taxes.
A strong case can be made for an even
split of spending reductions and tax increas-
es, including a step the president has
eschewed, taxing capital gains as ordinary
income. As it is, Republicans have been shar-
ing their fears about defense reductions (part
of a deal they brokered). Spare defense, and
other priorities, such as education, research
and parks, are vulnerable. These factors high-
light why a careful balance must be struck,
putting rst the recovery, anchoring long-
term decit reduction and avoiding the haz-
ards of a scal cliff.

Leading the way
in health reform
implementation
By Carole Groom and Adrienne Tissier
H
ealth insurance is not broccoli. That is
the essence of the U.S. Supreme
Courts landmark
decision to uphold the con-
stitutionality of the
Affordable Care Act,
President Obamas signature
legislative achievement to
date.
Heres the good news for
San Mateo County: 57,000
uninsured residents will
receive affordable health
coverage, young adults can
stay on their parents plans
until age 26 and individuals
can no longer be discriminat-
ed against by insurance com-
panies because of pre-exist-
ing conditions such as can-
cer, depression or even wom-
anhood.
Long before the Supreme Courts decision,
the County of San Mateo was hard at work
implementing the Act. We began by forming
the Community Health Reform Advocacy
Committee shortly after the bill was signed into
law by the president in 2010. To date, CHRAC
has created a website to educate residents about
health care reform, conducted an education and
outreach campaign to inform small businesses
about tax credits currently available to them if
they choose to offer insurance to their employ-
ees and written a white paper to inform
Californias Health Benet Exchange Board
about San Mateo Countys successful commu-
nity approach to enrollment.
Weve also taken advantage of federal incen-
tives to provide insurance now to those individ-
uals who will become eligible for it in 2014
under the acts Medicaid expansion. Eight-
thousand residents are covered under this early
enrollment program, which will help the county
and the state hit the ground running when the
law takes full effect.
Everyone will use health care services at
some point in their lives. Unless the uninsured
pay out of pocket, the uncompensated cost of
their care is picked up by everyone else through
higher insurance premiums and higher costs for
medical services. Thats the difference between
health insurance and broccoli: The decision to
forgo broccoli doesnt carry with it negative
consequences for others, which is one reason
why the Supreme Court upheld the Affordable
Care Acts provision requiring everyone who
can afford it to purchase health insurance.
To help individuals fulll this responsibility,
the state of California is creating a marketplace,
known as the Exchange, where individuals can
purchase affordable insurance and receive any
subsidies for which they are eligible. These
insurance offerings will be standardized to
cover the same basic health services, making it
simpler to compare different plans and premi-
um levels, and will have no lifetime coverage
caps. Pursuant to the acts consumer protec-
tions individuals in this marketplace cannot be
excluded due to pre-existing conditions, their
coverage cannot be rescinded retroactively and
excessive premium hikes will be subject to
review. We are actively working with the
Exchange Board to create an easy and efcient
consumer experience for residents who partici-
pate in this new marketplace.
The county of San Mateo is a leader in local
health care reform implementation. Weve
taken this proactive role because we believe
any law that expands health coverage to 30 mil-
lion people while reducing the federal budget
decit by $210 billion over the next 10 years is
worth supporting. Most importantly, we believe
health care is a basic human right that should
be accessible to all, not just the privileged few.
Carole Groom and Adrienne Tissier are mem-
bers of the San Mateo County Board of
Supervisors and co-chairs of its Community
Health Reform Advocacy Committee. Learn

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK Whipsawed by strong
earnings from some companies, weak
ones from others, including the once
infallible Apple, investors couldnt make
up their mind whether to buy or sell on
Wednesday. In the end, they mostly sold,
but barely.
The Standard & Poors 500 slipped
0.42 points, or 0.03 percent, to end
1,337.89. The tiny loss extended the
broad indexs losses to a fourth straight
day. A big reason was Apple, which
dropped $22.12 to $578.80, a loss of 4
percent. A sharp drop in new home sales
also fed the selling.
The Dow Jones industrial average rose
58.73 points, or 0.5 percent, to 12,676.05.
That snapped a three-day, triple-digit los-
ing streak for the index.
Helping the Dow were big gains from
two of its components, Boeing and
Caterpillar. The duo contributed 24 points
to the index, or nearly half of its gain.
Boeing rose $2, nearly 3 percent, to
$74.03 after reporting surprisingly strong
earnings. The aircraft maker also raised
its prot forecast for all of 2012.
Caterpillar, which makes mining and
construction equipment, rose $1.17, or
1.4 percent, to $82.60. The company blew
away analysts estimates with a 67 per-
cent surge in prots for the second quar-
ter. Caterpillar credited strong sales of
mining equipment overseas and a
strengthening housing market.
Shortly after Caterpillar announced its
results, the optimism about housing took
a hit. The Commerce Department said
sales of new homes plunged 8 percent last
month, the steepest drop since February
last year. Sales in the Northeastern U.S.
plummeted 60 percent. The decline sug-
gests a weaker job market is dampening
any pickup in the industry.
Housing is not really recovering, its
bottoming, said Steven Ricchiuto, chief
economist at Mizuho Securities, a broker-
age rm. Thats still a problem with the
economy.
Home builders were hit hard. Beazer
Homes fell 13 cents, or 5 percent, to
$2.35. KB Home lost 32 cents, or 3 per-
cent, to $9.31.
The biggest loser in the S&P was
Netix, the video subscription company.
It fell $20.11 to $60.28, a loss of 25 per-
cent. The company reported late Tuesday
that its net income plunged 91 percent in
the latest quarter. Investors are worried
about rising licensing fees and slowing
subscriber growth.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PALO ALTO Electric vehicle
maker Tesla Motors Inc. said
Wednesday that its second-quarter net
loss nearly doubled as it invested heavi-
ly to launch its second vehicle, the
Model S.
Shares of the Palo Alto company fell
3 percent, or 89 cents, to $28.95 before
the market closed. They fell another 3.2
percent, or 92 cents, to $28.03 in after-
hours trading.
The company said it lost $105.6 mil-
lion, or $1 per share, from April through
June. That compares with $58.9 million,
or 60 cents per share, a year earlier.
Revenue was $26.7 million, less than
half the $58.2 million reported in the
second quarter of last year.
Excluding stock-based compensation
expenses, the company lost 89 cents per
share for the quarter. That beat Wall
Street estimates. Analysts polled by
FactSet expected a loss of 93 cents per
share on revenue of $30.9 million.
Tesla, the brainchild of PayPal bil-
lionaire and SpaceX founder Elon
Musk, now has two all-electric models
on the market, the $109,000 Roadster
and the new Model S, which starts at
$49,900 after a federal tax credit. The
Model S went on sale last month, and
Tesla said it had more than 11,500 reser-
vations for the sedan by June 30.
Tesla has lost money since sales of the
Roadster began in 2008, and the compa-
ny is banking on the cheaper Model S to
expand its market. Tesla began selling
stock to the public in June 2010 at an
initial price of $17 per share.
The company said its maintaining
revenue guidance of $560 million to
$600 million for the year, and it still
plans to produce 5,000 of the Model S
this year. It expects a gross margin of 25
percent next year and has a goal of
20,000 deliveries in 2013.
Tesla second quarter net loss widens
European losses hurt Ford s 2Q profit
DEARBORN, Mich. Just three years after Ford revived its
American business, the company is planning an even trickier
turnaround in Europe, where mounting losses weighed down its
second-quarter results.
Fords net income fell 57 percent to $1 billion in the April-June
period, largely because of a $404 million loss in Europe. Car
sales there have tumbled to 20-year lows because consumers lack
condence in the economy. Ford expects to lose more than $1 bil-
lion in Europe in 2012, double its estimate from the beginning of
the year.
The company wouldnt give details about its turnaround plans
on Wednesday, but analysts say layoffs and plant closures are
inevitable. Europe is vital to Ford. A quarter of its sales and prof-
its come from the region, which is Fords largest market after
North America. Four straight quarters of losses in Europe are tak-
ing a toll.
This is a very serious situation, Chief Financial Ofcer Bob
Shanks said after Ford announced quarterly results Wednesday.
Its going to take quite a long time for Europe to work through
these issues.
Zynga stock tanks after weak 2Q report
NEW YORK Zyngas stock is tanking after the online game
maker reported a loss in the second quarter, with adjusted earn-
ings and revenue below Wall Streets already-low expectations.
The company behind games such as CityVille and
FarmVille also lowered its outlook for the year because of
delayed games, reduced expectations for its Draw Something
game and what it called a more challenging environment on the
Facebook Web platform.
Zynga derives nearly all of its revenue from games played on
Facebook, and a growing number of Facebook users are access-
ing the social network using mobile devices rather than comput-
ers. That hurts Web-based games such as Zyngas.
Zynga Inc. said Wednesday that it lost $22.8 million, or 3 cents
per share, in the April-June quarter. Thats down from earnings of
$1.4 million a year ago when it was still privately held. Its per-
share results last year were at breakeven.

One ghter is in the middle of her amateur

Morton would be the one to cut weight.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
GLASGOW, Scotland An early start to
the Olympics turned into an early hole for the
U.S. womens soccer team, which gave up
two quick goals before unleashing an attack
the rest of the world will nd hard to stop.
Abby Wambach used her size and strength
to put in a header, Alex Morgan applied her
speed to chip one over the goalkeeper and
Carli Lloyd broke the tie with a 25-yard rock-
et. All of which sent the two-time defending
goal medalists to a 4-2 victory over France on
Wednesday as they opened their London
Games far from London.
Morgan added an insurance goal created
by a nice run from Tobin Heath for the
Americans, which began play two days before
the opening ceremony and 400-plus miles
from the British capital. Soccer starts its
Olympics early so it has time to play a full
tournament of games.
The Americans allowed more goals in the
rst handful of minutes than they had allowed
in any game since the World Cup nal loss to
Japan last year. Gaetane Thiney (12th minute)
and Marie-Laure Delie (14th) found holes in a
supposedly impenetrable defense a poten-
tial cause for U.S. concern as the grueling
tournament progresses.
But Wambach scored in the 19th, Morgan in
the 32nd, Lloyd in the 56th and Morgan again
in the 66th. Wambach now has 139 interna-
tional goals in her pursuit of Mia Hamms
record of 158, and 23-year-old Baby Horse
Morgan the second-youngest player on the
team has a remarkable 19 this year alone.
While the Americans are favored to win
gold again and even though the U.S. is now
13-0-1 all-time against France it was hard-
ly a surprise to see the French make it a game.
The teams were tied late in the second half in
last years World Cup seminals before the
Americans nished off a 3-1 win, and France
entered these Olympics on a 17-game win-
ning streak.
The United States plays Colombia in its
second group game on Saturday. France will
face North Korea.
The French took the lead on a deected
long ball that ended up at the foot of Thiney,
who had plenty of time and space to unleash a
22-yard shot into the upper right corner of the
net, grazing the ngertips of leaping goal-
keeper Hope Solo.
Two minutes later, the Americans played a
dangerous game of pinball deep in their own
end, failing in ve separate chances to clear a
corner kick. Inevitably, the ball bounced to a
French player, Delie, who put the easy shot

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO Jesus Guzman hit two
home runs and Chase Headley had one to hand
Tim Lincecum another setback, powering the San
Diego Padres past the San Francisco Giants 6-3 on
Wednesday to avoid a three-game sweep.
Will Venable also hit a two-run double to help
the Padres chase Lincecum (4-11) after he allowed
ve runs in 4 2-3 innings. The two-time NL Cy
Young Award winner had shown signs of progress
in his previous two outings. Instead, hes still try-
ing to put three straight solid starts together and
turnaround the worst season of his career.
Jason Marquis (4-5) gave up three hits and one
earned run in 7 1-3 innings. He struck out eight
and walked one to send the NL West-leading
Giants to only their third loss in 12 games.
Huston Street extended his scoreless streak to
15 straight innings with a four-out save, including
striking out All-Star MVP Melky Cabrera with
two on to end the eighth. Street has converted all
16 save opportunities this season.
After allowing two runs in 15 innings over his
previous two starts, Lincecum and the Giants were
optimistic The Freak had nally snapped out of his
funk.
So much for that.
Headley hammered a 1-1 fastball over the wall
in center in the rst to match his career-high of 12
home runs and give the Padres a 1-0 lead. It was
the sixth home run allowed in the rst inning this
year by Lincecum, tying the mark he gave up all
of last season.
The Giants answered back in the bottom of the
inning when Gregor Blanco singled, stole second
and eventually scored on Cabreras y out to left.
The run did little for Lincecums condence.
Lincecum loaded the bases in the fourth with
one out. He struck out Marquis on three pitches
and almost escaped until Venables two-run dou-
ble landed in front of a diving Angel Pagan in left-
center, putting the Padres ahead 3-1 and extending
Lincecums season-long slump.
San Franciscos shaggy-haired starter slumped
around the mound, covering his face with his
glove, never regaining his composure. Lincecum
lofted a fastball clocked at 89 mph over the middle
of the plate in the fth that Guzman crushed over
the wall in left.
Guzman also hit a solo shot off Brad Penny
leading off the eighth for his sixth home run of the
season to give San Diego a 6-1 lead.
After Lincecum walked John Baker, manager
Bruce Bochy took that familiar trot to the mound
to relieve his former ace before the sixth inning
again. Lincecum left after giving up seven hits,
ve runs and three walks. He tossed 102 pitches
62 for strikes and struck out eight.
Lincecum now has a 5.88 ERA, the highest
among any qualifying National League pitcher,
and has only lasted six innings in nine of his 21
starts. The Giants are 6-15 this season when
Lincecum takes the mound.
San Franciscos nal effort to save Lincecum
from another loss fell short.
Brandon Belt reached on a throwing error by
shortstop Everth Cabrera that landed in the dugout
to start the bottom of the eighth. Joaquin Arias sin-
gled home Belt and Theriot delivered an RBI sin-
gle with two outs to slice San Diegos lead to 6-3.
Street entered and struck out Cabrera to end San
Franciscos best shot.
NOTES: Headley also hit 12 home runs in
2009. ... Giants 3B Pablo Sandoval sat out with a
strained left hamstring he injured Tuesday night
stretching for a catch to nish off a double play
when he was at rst base. The team will wait until
Friday to decide whether he needs to be put on the
disabled list. ... San Franciscos Hector Sanchez
(sprained left knee) is scheduled to catch ve
innings for Triple-A Fresno on Thursday. Sanchez
was put through catching and elding drills
Wednesday, including at rst base.

MIAMI Former NL batting champion
Hanley Ramirez was traded from Miami to the

what appears to be the third big re sale in
Marlins history.
Left-handed reliever Randy Choate also was
dealt to the Dodgers. The Marlins received right-

minor league pitcher Scott
McGough.
The trade came two days
after the Marlins sent pitch-

during the offseason to sign All-Stars Jose
Reyes, Mark Buehrle and Heath Bell. The team
agreed to star in a Showtime reality series, The
Franchise.
In their colorful new uniforms, the Marlins
were 31-23 through June 3, just percentage

in the NL East and 12 1/2 games out of rst

Blue Jays used catcher Jeff Mathis to pitch the
ninth inning, and he gave up two runs on an
RBI double by Brandon Hicks and an RBI sin-
gle by Brandon Moss.
Chris Carter homered and drove in three
runs. He drew a bases-loaded walk from Ricky
Romero during an eight-run second inning as
Oakland improved to 16-2 in July.
Grifn (3-0) gave up three hits in six innings.
The rookie struck out nine in winning his third
straight start and leaving with a 2.25 ERA.
Romero (8-7) lasted only 1 1-3 innings in the
shortest start of his career. He lost his sixth
decision in a row.
Crisp hit a leadoff drive to right in the third
and went deep to almost the same spot in the
fth, his rst multihomer game of the season
and the third of his career.
The As posted their fth 16-0 shutout in
franchise history and their rst since a lopsided
win over San Francisco on June 26, 2005.
Jonny Gomes reached base four times for
Oakland, now 10-1 since the All-Star break.
Mathis came into the game in the second
after Toronto lost catcher J.P. Arencibia to a
broken right hand after he was hit by Brandon
Inges foul tip. Arencibia stayed in the game
until the half-inning ended, and is expected to
miss six weeks.
Romero, who came in 4-0 with a 1.70 ERA
in six career starts against the Athletics,
allowed eight runs on four hits and six walks.
Already leading on Cespedes RBI double in
the rst, Oakland broke it open in the second.
Left elder Travis Sniders error on Crisps
single led to the rst run, and Gomes followed
with an RBI single. Josh Reddick added an
RBI double and, after an intentional walk to
Cespedes loaded the bases, Romero ended his
night by walking Carter to force home a fth
run.

way to end the summer campaign.
Serra went 7-0 over the tournaments two-
weekend schedule. The Padres went undefeat-
ed in pool play and then beat Menlo-Atherton,
American-Fremont, Half Moon Bay and
Riordan to capture the tournament title.
The Skyline tournament is one well try to
win. The other summer games, its more about
development, Rapp said.
Rapp said the Skyline tournament is a little
more personal than the other events his team
participates in during the summer. Its hosted
by a San Mateo County school and is attend-
ed by mostly San Mateo County teams. Even
during the casual run of summer play, there is
still a lot of bragging rights on the line when
county schools face off against each other.
You have built-in local rivalries in that
(tournament) and it is a San Mateo County
event, Rapp said. I think all the teams feel
that way.
And [Skyline coach Justin Piergrossi] runs
it as a championship. Other tournaments only
give you a certain amount of games. And we
want to defend our home turf.
It wasnt too long ago the summer was the
domain of baseball and softball while nearly
all other sports used those months as their off
season.
There is no such thing as an off season any-
more. In high school especially, if teams want
to have success during the regular season, it
starts during the months games arent played.
Rapp said the Padres will play 30 to 40 games
as a squad during the summer. They partici-
pate in a summer league run by City College
of San Francisco, which is two games once a
week, along with a couple of tournaments and
one-day camps on college campuses, such as
St. Marys and San Jose State.
But the main reason for the summer season
is to start melding together a team.
Its important to start to build chemistry,
Rapp said, especially among players in the
junior and senior classes, who get a bulk of
the playing minutes.
(The goal is to) just develop chemistry and
play with each other. Thats probably the most
important thing you do during the summer.
And thats just with the high school team. It
doesnt take into account a players commit-
ment to a club team or an AAU squad that
travels around the country and plays in show-
case events.
While attendance at Serras summer pro-
gram is not required, it behooves the athletes
to be there as much as possible.
Its important the kids make a commitment
to the Serra basketball program in the sum-
mer, Rapp said. Were not taking atten-
dance, but we expect them to be there when
they got nothing better to do.
We had, for the most part, good atten-
dance. When they missed (summer games),
they were usually out playing basketball.

reported by ESPN, showed how high the
stakes were as college sports governing body
considered how to respond to an internal
school investigation by former FBI Director
Louis Freeh that found former coach Joe
Paterno and three other top college ofcials
helped conceal reports that Sandusky was
abusing children.
NCAA president Mark Emmert said this
week that if a total football ban had been
imposed, other penalties would have accompa-
nied it.
If the death penalty were to be imposed,
Im quite sure that the executive committee
and I ... would not have agreed to just the death
penalty. It would have included other penalties
as well, Emmert said as the sanctions were
unveiled.
An NCAA spokeswoman declined further
comment Wednesday on negotiations with
Penn State.
Many alumni and some trustees were
incensed over the unprecedented NCAA
penalty which will cost Penn State tens of
millions of dollars and likely cripple its foot-
ball team for years to come and Penn
States quick acceptance of it.
A person with knowledge of the meeting
said earlier Wednesday that trustees were to
discuss whether Erickson had the authority
to agree to the sanctions without first getting
the boards approval. The person was not
authorized to discuss the meeting and spoke
on condition of anonymity.
Some trustees had expressed concern that
Erickson may have violated a board rule that
says the board must authorize the signing of
contracts, legal documents, and other obliga-
tions.
The board statement made no reference to
the proprietary of what Erickson had done,
saying trustees held a discussion but did not
take any votes.
The board nds the punitive sanctions dif-
cult and the process with the NCAA unfortu-
nate, the statement said. But as we under-
stand it, the alternatives were worse as con-
rmed by NCAA President Mark Emmerts
recent statement that Penn State was likely
facing a multi-year death sentence.
La Torre said Wednesday that Erickson had
authority to act without the approval of the full
board.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BARCELONA, Spain The question
sounded more like a concession.
The U.S. mens Olympic basketball team
had come to Barcelona and put a 100-78 beat-
ing on Spain, the country given the best
chance of stopping the Americans bid for a
second straight gold medal. It was such a
dominating performance over the nal three
quarters Tuesday that it was hard to imagine
what could be much different if the teams
meet again in London.
So, one Spanish journalist asked Chris Paul,
is this U.S. team invincible?
No, Paul said. I mean, I wish we were.
Wed get to live a long time.
OK, so theyre not immortal, either.
What the Americans have, after a ve-game
exhibition schedule, is a team that is unbeaten,
though not unbeatable. The Americans have a
weakness that can be exploited, though also
the ability to turn it into a strength.
They head to London as the clear favorites,
and maybe among the few who believe win-
ning gold again will require much more than
just showing up.
I think for us, its about going out there and
playing the right way and worrying about us,
Paul said. We go into games, fortunately we
know that were probably going to be the most
talented team there, but that doesnt always
win games for you.
It worked during this tour, which started
nearly three weeks ago in Las Vegas and
ended with an off day Wednesday in
Barcelona. The U.S. flies to London on
Thursday, then plays its Olympic opener
Sunday against France.
Games against overmatched Britain and the
Dominican Republic werent competitive, but
the Americans were challenged at times dur-
ing the three contests against medal con-
tenders. Brazil had a 10-point lead after one
quarter before the U.S. won by 11. Argentina
cut a 20-point decit to four in the nal min-
utes of the Americans 86-80 victory here
Sunday. And Spain was ahead by nine points
in the opening period before the U.S. got the
game under control.
We got better. We got better and at the end
of the day thats what its all about, LeBron
James said of the pre-Olympic schedule.
Weve got to continue to improve and it was
a good test.

of a normal person having to lose 20 pounds in
a short period of time.
We never know when were going to ght,
so its good to be ready (weight wise), Morton
said.
She said most of the extra pounds was water
weight so when she arrived in Indio, she went
to work dropping the weight.
[Indio, a small town in the desert near Palm
Springs] is a weight-cutters paradise, Morton
said. It was 118 degrees outside and I was in
the hot tub. I lost three pounds in 15 minutes.
Mentally, I was just so much meaner, I didnt
care (about all the hard work to cut weight).
Morton won her rst bout with relative ease
and thought she had won the championship
ght, only to see the decision go the other way.
It was tough not to come home with the
belt. It got me more red up for next week,
Morton said. It was exciting going up
against a much [more experienced] opponent.
I thought I did enough to win, but I should
have done more.
Morton now heads to Kansas City in a bit of
ux. Her regular trainer, B Street Boxings
Eddie Croft, is unavailable to work her corner
at the tournament, and her backup trainer who
cornered her in Indio, is promoting a show of
his own that week. So Morton is heading to the
Midwest without a coach or corner crew,
although she thinks she has someone lined up.
Dont expect that little speed bump to slow
her down.
At this point, Ive been working extra hard
so I want to keep going, Morton said. I dont
care I have to corner myself. If worse comes to
worst, Ill ask a random (coach to help me
out).
While Morton continues to bounce around
the country in search of ghts, Gumina returns
home for an Aug. 17 cruiserweight ght in
Richmond against an opponent to be deter-
mined. This will be Guminas fourth profes-
sional ght and he is 2-1 with a pair of rst-
round knockouts. With his exciting, knockout
style of boxing, he is a ghter in demand by
promoters.
The reason they like Joe here (in the Bay
Area) is, he draws, said Jim Gumina, Joes
father and co-manager. He sells lots of tick-
ets.
Others ghters, however, have not been
quick to step into the ring with Gumina.
Hes been turned down a lot (by other ght-
ers and managers). No one wants to [ght
him], Jim Gumina said.
Guminas bout Aug. 17 is on the undercard
of San Francisco native Karim Mayeld and
Mauricio Herrera junior welterweight bout,
which will be broadcast on ESPN2 as part of
the networks Friday Night Fights series.
Guminas bout, however, will not be tele-
vised.
It could only be a matter of time before
Gumina, a 2002 Capuchino graduate, nds
himself on television. Gumina is not one to
dance around and box. He has one thing on his
mind: knockout. He knocked out 16 of 26
amateur opponents quite a feat considering
knockouts in amateur bouts are rare given the
bigger size of the gloves and the head protec-
tion worn by ghters. Since turning pro, hes
still pounding opponents into oblivion.
In his pro debut at San Francisco
Longshoremens Hall last February, Gumina
knocked out Jose Jesus Hurtado in 60 seconds.
He followed that up with a 90-second demoli-
tion of Harry Gopaul a couple months later.
Last September, Gumina suffered his rst pro
defeat, losing a four-round decision to
Anthony Johnson.
Gumina spent about a year living, training
and sparring in Hollywood and is currently
trained by Jesse Reid, who has trained 23
world champions.
There are a lot more ghters down there
(with whom to train and spar), Jim Gumina
said.
Gumina now splits his time between the
Peninsula and Southern California. He trains
out of San Franciscos Ring of Fire boxing
club when he is not in training camp.
The elder Gumina said he has already lined
up a sponsorship deal with San Mateos Man
Cave Memorabilia, which allows Joe Gumina
to concentrate on ghting instead of dealing
with a full-time job.
If Gumina keeps trending upward, however,
sponsors may start coming to him.
Hes sparred with some of the best, Jim
Gumina said. He was a paid sparring partner
for Andre Ward, who liked his power.

FIGHTERS
past Solo, again off the goalies outstretched
left hand, to make it 2-0.
But the Americans are arguably stronger,
deeper and more diverse than theyve ever
been, and they have the repower to overcome
such a decit and quickly. Wambach, who
has the best header in womens soccer, started
the comeback by nodding in Megan Rapinoes
corner kick.
The goal awakened some of a crowd that so
far had behaved as if watching a BBC docu-
mentary. Chants of U-S-A! began to echo in
sections of Hampden Park, the 109-year-old
landmark that serves as Scotlands national
stadium.
The 52,000-seat stadium was perhaps one-
third full at kickoff, but the game needed to
draw only a couple of thousand to surpass the
all-time Scottish record for attendance at a
womens game. Organizers gave away some
30,000 tickets to schools and local clubs to
keep the stands from being embarrassingly
empty in a region where soccer is overwhelm-
ingly a mans game.
The American fans who made the trip had
their enthusiasm rewarded when goalkeeper
Solo got an assist when her long ball was
chased down on the rst bounce by Morgan,
who chipped it over goalkeeper Sarah
Bouhaddi to tie the score.
Lloyds tiebreaker was never in doubt, a
blast that left Bouhaddi helpless as it found
the left side of the net. Heath made the margin
a comfortable one with a long run down the
left side deep into the penalty area before run-
ning into interference. The ball slid over to
Morgan, who merely had to tap it in for the
games nal goal.

Street in San Carlos. A search of the Elm
Street residence uncovered nearly 1,300 mar-
ijuana plants, six pounds of processed mari-
juana and evidence related to sales, according
to the Sheriffs Ofce.
The plants were discovered in a backyard
shed and some of which had been apparently
moved from the Terminal Way warehouse,
according to the Sheriffs Ofce. A search of
the warehouse revealed evidence associated
with the cultivation of marijuana.
At both locations, evidence of an illegal
electrical bypass was also discovered. At the
time of the bust, police estimate the street
value of the entire haul to be more than
$922,000.
In May, Bennight and Breisch both pleaded
no contest to one count of maintaining a house
for narcotics while Schofield pleaded to
felony theft of utility services. All entered
pleas in exchange for no more than one year
in county jail, according to the District
Attorneys Ofce.

DRUGS
rules keep being altered and there is such
divergent interpretation of all aspects of the
dissolution, San Mateo City Manager Susan
Loftus wrote in an email to the Daily Journal.
In San Mateo, the city will likely lose some
properties it purchased with its redevelopment
funds such as the vacant Kinkos site at Fifth
Avenue and Claremont Street.
The city will not be able to afford to buy it
at fair market value, Deputy Mayor David
Lim said.
It is an already bad situation and we are
going to lose properties, he said. He does not
anticipate, however, the city losing any core
services due to the dissolution of RDAs.
In San Carlos, the citys Wheeler Plaza
mixed-use residential project is at risk
because two of the ve parcels in the down-
town project area were purchased by the citys
RDA, City Manager Jeff Maltbie told the
Daily Journal.
It has been difcult, Maltbie said about
winding down the agency. The laws imple-
mented are not very well thought out. It is dif-
cult to understand the specics of all these
actions although we understand the spirit of
it.
Cities contend the state cannot touch local
tax revenue after the passage of Proposition
1A in 2004 and Proposition 22 in 2010.
Questions on oversight
Linda Koelling, former mayor in Foster
City, is now on the citys oversight committee
for its RDA successor agency.
While she is no longer on the City Council,
she has fought the states actions against
raiding local tax revenue for the past two
years.
The whole process for dismantling is
absurd, Koelling told the Daily Journal.
She is also concerned by the extended pow-
ers the state Department of Finance has been
given with the legislation.
As she sits on Foster Citys oversight com-
mittee to nd ways to protect city assets while
meeting state mandates, she says that ulti-
mately the state will have nal say on dissolu-
tion and that local oversight boards will be
mostly ignored.
She questions why oversight boards are
even needed if the state continues on its cur-
rent path.
It is disappointing the way different taxing
agencies have tried to take from cities, she
said.
The states actions, she said, will cripple
Foster Citys ability to build affordable hous-
ing and create jobs.
What they are doing is making the rules as
they continue to play the game, Koelling said
about Gov. Jerry Brown and state lawmakers
as they tackle Californias $9.2 billion decit.
Local legislative support
The bill was supported locally in the
Assembly by Fiona Ma, D-San Francisco,
Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo, and Rich Gordon, D-
Menlo Park.
The bill went a long way toward helping the
state meet its budget this year, Gordon said.
AB 1484 was a trailer bill that included
over $3 billion in budget solutions, and was a
critical piece of the recently-signed state
budget, Gordon wrote the Daily Journal in an
email.
For Hill, the decision to support RDA dis-
solution will ultimately help the states
schools avoid drastic cuts.
We prioritized economic development
when times were good. But when times go
bad, that money is needed to maintain our
schools. The state decided it can no longer
backfill education, Hill told the Daily
Journal.
Cities in San Mateo County did well with
redevelopment, he said, and the Legislature
will work on restoring some of the housing
components lost with the dissolution of rede-
velopment.
In the state Senate, Leland Yee, D-San
Francisco/San Mateo, and Joe Simitian, D-
Palo Alto, also supported AB 1484.
Fall guys
The leagues Executive Director Chris
McKenzie contends the legislation will jeop-
ardize public safety and other critical city
services.
We also strongly believe the sales tax and
property tax clawback provisions violate the
Constitution and are inconsistent with other
parts of AB 1484 that declare that redevelop-
ment successor agencies are separate and
apart from city governments, McKenzie
wrote in a statement.
Koelling thinks the state needs to gure out
other ways to solve its decit rather than
raid local tax coffers.
Local government cannot be the fall guys
for the inept governing in Sacramento, she
said.
AB 1484 gives the state Department of
Finance the authority to divert local sales and
property taxes and impose $10,000 per day
nes, putting local public safety and other
vital services at risk while ignoring the state
Constitution, according to the League of
California Cities.
The states nonpartisan Legislative Analyst
Ofce reported that projections of redevelop-
ment revenue in the budget is overly opti-
mistic given the amount of local redevelop-
ment debts that must rst be paid.
Flawed measure
The LAO further characterized AB 1484 as
a signicant expansion of the authority of
Department of Finance, including the
unprecedented ability for it to delay and divert
local sales and property taxes to satisfy the
states cash demands.
In my opinion, this entire exercise brought
on by the governors decision to continue to
take funds from local government is terribly
confusing and a waste of time and money. It
takes from one agency and gives to another,
the old shell game, pass it back and forth. He
should concentrate on the pensions issue and
trying to encourage companies to do business
in California, not raising taxes, Koelling said
about Gov. Brown.
The states haste to pass the budget trailer
bill without consulting with cities will pro-
mote more conict and litigation, McKenzie
said.
We had hoped this year that state and local
ofcials could pull together and fashion a
trailer bill that truly worked for cities while
balancing state needs. Unfortunately, the pas-
sage of this awed measure ... without the
involvement of local ofcials in its drafting
will only perpetuate conict at a time when a
more collaborative approach would have pro-
moted unity, McKenzie wrote in a statement.
Redevelopment agencies were funded by
property tax revenue in designated areas. With
dissolution, tax revenue, unless obligated by
contracts such as bond payments, is supposed
to be distributed to other local agencies such
as school or re districts.

absence through June. Tonight, the board
will consider excusing Hoch through
December.
Hoch, who spoke with the Daily Journal
earlier this month, is on medical leave. Shes
going to physical therapy most days and has
worked hard to get back to health. Her doc-
tor has warned that the meetings might be
too stressful. Hoch said she hopes to return
as soon as she can citing a strong desire to
remain involved.
The conversation puts the sitting trustees
in a difficult position. Having only four
members means not having a tie-breaking
vote for split decisions.
Trustee Maurice Goodman is open to a dia-
logue thats respectful for both the health of
Hoch but also that her absence isnt imped-
ing the boards responsibilities.
Board President Judy Bush was also neu-
tral. She described Hoch as a big contributor
to the community whose presence and
knowledge are missed. Bush added she sim-
ply wants Hoch to get better.
Trustee Phil Weise will vote against
extending the excused absences.
I like Shirlee. I would like to see a five-
member board. The voters are entitled to
that, he said.
Even if the majority of the board votes
with Weise, the decision to vacate the seat is
with Hoch.
South San Franciscos policy allows for
trustees to be excused. In the bylaw cited for
the resolution going before the board
Thursday, there is no limitation for such
excuse. Other rules discussing reasons that
could cause a vacancy allow for up to a year
for someone called to serve in the military.
There is no time limit when it comes to med-
ical reasons.
The board meets 7 p.m. Thursday, July 26
at the District Office, 398 B St., South San
Francisco.

Ah, summer. Theres something about these
warm and languid days and nights that makes
many of us want to throw together a little
gathering.
Picking a cocktail party theme makes plan-
ning the menu and dicor more fun. Here are
just a few to get your creative wheels turning.
Invite your favorite people, add some fairy
lights and lanterns, and get the party started.
60s SOUTH BEACH
Showtimes new Magic City TV series,
set in mid-century Miami, is inspiration for
party dicor and music with a retro vibe, served
with Cuban-inuenced canapis.
At Pottery Barn, youll nd a collection of
melamine plates, serveware and coordinating
linens in muted vintage tropical prints.
Palm-leaf-patterned ceramic serveware in
deep blues and olive greens are part of Cindy
Crawford Styles Eden collection at JC
Penney.
And even if youre land-bound, craft stores
offer shells, coral and starsh you can add to
baskets and trays lled with store-bought play
sand to create table decor. Or place one dra-
matic tropical ower or frond in a tall slim
vase.
Serve appetizers with Latin air, such as
Cuban shrimp skewers, mini empanadas and
spicy popcorn. Play the Rat Pack music that
was popular in the era at Miamis big hotels
Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Sammy Davis Jr.
COCKTAILS IN CORTONA
You may not be under the Tuscan sun this
summer, but you can still set a similar scene
for your guests. Fill a large glass vase with
water, lemons and sunowers. Or take a cue
from London-based stylist Sania Pell and ll
clear vessels with untrimmed vegetables such
as radishes, celery and carrots for a rustic
look.
Pottery Barn has melamine versions of the
iconic Talavera pottery, while Williams-
Sonoma has unbreakable dishware in
Mediterranean patterns.
Small bites are the way to go with any
cocktail party; theyre easy for guests to han-
dle, and your food trays will be easier to
refresh. For this one, consider tiny tomato
tarts, a sampler of Italian ices, and shot glass-
es lled with cold soups like cucumber dill or
tomato basil.
TOKYO TERRACE
A city balconys the perfect place for a chic,
Asian-inspired cocktail party. Set up the Zen
zone with baby conifer pots or moss nestled
into interesting dishes. Wrap votives in origa-
mi paper.
Branchhome.com has Wasaras elegant
bamboo and sugarcane-ber disposable table-
ware thats great looking and eco-friendly.
CB2s Format orange enamel tray and an
array of colorful, user-friendly, clothespin-
style chopsticks would be stylish options.
Mini crabcakes, salmon satays and melon
ball lollipops, along with bowls of Japanese
crackers and wasabi nuts, will satisfy snack-
ing guests.
CABIN FEVER
Bring the woodsy cabin vibe home to the
city or suburbia with a few playful acces-
sories, and a comfort food menu. A few inex-
pensive bandanas, a plaid blanket, or an old
quilt make colorful table coverings; a wind-
downed branch or group of interesting rocks
wrapped in lights would look wonderful as a
rustic centerpiece.
Homegoods has a canoe-shaped condiment
server complete with paddle spoons. Youll
nd patchwork-patterned acrylic plates here
too, as well as coordinating drink pitchers and
utensils.
Set out mini sliders, roasted vegetable
skewers and paper cups lled with seasoned
fries. Consider a avored water or gourmet
soda bar; its a unique idea for any cocktail
soiree, and keeps things just as much fun for
teetotalers or designated drivers.
A theme adds punch to summer party

SEATTLE I feel like Alice in
Wonderland. Sprinting past an alli-
gator drinking a soda pop and a T-
Rex playing guitar, I lean toward a
family of colorful metal toadstools
that come to my knee.
Arent those great? asks Jim
Honold as he ushers me through a
forest of recycled oil drum statues at
his Home & Garden Art store.
Ive come to this Disneyland for
gardeners seeking inspiration for
easy ways to add whimsy to gar-
dens, and Honold is giving me the
rundown.
Adding art to your garden is an
extension of your identity, he says
as we brush past a murder of con-
crete crows. You decorate the
inside, why not the outside? Any
personality, any hobby, can be rep-
resented classical, funky, season-
al you name it.
Looking around, it appears hes
right. Theres the giant metal
umbrella coat-stand for a classy
infusion of humor; a multitude of
hobby-inspired birdhouses; 4-foot
metal lobsters for shing enthusi-
asts with no attachment to subtlety;
and an old tricycle planter box
aimed at the nostalgic set.
Everywhere, whimsy abounds.
But how do you actually start
adding lawn art to an outdoor living
space?
Instead of throwing stuff in the
attic or garage, put it out in the
open, Honold says.
He suggests displaying old gar-
den tools, metal toys, or wine glass-
es and decanters. Chipped plates
can nd new life in concrete step-
ping stones, and wooden kid-size
furniture always adds a nice touch.
Focus on whats readily avail-
able or representative of your area,
Honold adds. Coastal areas might
have shing nets and glass oats,
and places close to rural communi-
ties will have farm equipment. In
Washington state, he says, people
bring us old saws and ask us to
laser-cut their name or address on
them.
For a big splash, Honold recom-
mends an artistic gate. Whether
installing custom wrought-iron
doors with elaborate scenes on them
or simply taking a can of bright red
paint to a basic home-store model,
gates can reect personality and set
the tone for the rest of the house.
Think about all the things a gate
can say, Honold says. Stay out!
or Were fun people!
If the message youre trying to
send is Were magical, nd ways
to add fairy elements to your gar-
den. For kids and anyone with more
than a passing fancy for Harry
Potter, theres nothing quite as
charming as coming across traces of
pixies in the yard.
Greenspirit Arts Sally Smith
knows the power of a good fairy
house. She creates high-end custom
ones in her studio in Wadhams,
N.Y., that have inspired a calendar
and greeting card line.
While most of her houses arent
made for extensive outdoor use, she
says her calendars and online tutori-
al often serve as inspiration for peo-
ple to create their own more durable
models.
Making a fairy house is some-
thing we all innately know how to
do because of the child in us, Smith
says.
For a do-it-yourself fairy house
that can stand up to the elements,
Smith suggests working with stone
as a base, and attaching a stick and
moss roof and a wooden door.
Decorations can be found objects
beach glass, pine cones, welcome
mats woven from grasses or pine
even tiny dollhouse furniture.
And what about the garden itself?
Plant choices can add whimsy to
the garden as well, or simply com-
plement the art youve chosen, says
New Albany, Ohio, landscape
designer Nick McCullough.
He suggests incorporating
climbers like clematis, honeysuckle,
roses or golden hops to vertical art
and trellises, then adding lower
plantings at the base.
Climbers add a mystique to the
garden, McCullough says. They
make the garden feel established.
For other art, McCullough recom-
mends thinking about scale and
complementary colors.

Pitt. Should the finding be contested,
however, then the court would need to
hold a competency hearing. At the
same court appearance, a judge will
decide if bail should be set. Before
going to Napa, Ayres was out on
$250,000 bail, which was revoked
when he was sent to treatment, said
Pitt.
McDougall did not return a call for
comment.
Prosecutors efforts to convict Ayres
has spanned more than five years. He
was arrested in 2007 and tried in 2009
for allegedly abusing six former male
patients under the guise of medical
exams between 1988 and 1996 when
they were 9 to 13 years old.
The jury hung in varying amounts on
every count and his mental fitness was
called into question before he could
stand trial again. The jury deadlocked
and the prosecution agreed to allow
Ayres hospitalization rather than
launch another trial.
Ayres practice included private
clients and referrals from both the
juvenile justice system and school dis-
tricts. He also became known as presi-
dent of the American Academy of
Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and
for hosting the sex education series
Time of Your Life. Ayres received
juvenile court referrals up through
2004.
San Mateo police first began looking
at Ayres in 2002 after a former patient
accused him of molestation during the
1970s when he was 13. After a U.S.
Supreme Court ruling on the statute of
limitations nixed criminal prosecution,
the victim and Ayres reached a confi-
dential settlement in July 2005. In a
deposition for the lawsuit, Ayres
reportedly admitted conducting physi-
cal exams of patients as part of his
care.

If it happens to be raining hard
when you read this, my words might
make you want to pelt me with ripe
tomatoes if you had them yet.
Still, Ill say it: Timely watering can
eke the best plant growth from any
plot of ground in any season.
Even in wet seasons, watering usu-
ally helps, because the water that
falls then isnt all available to plants.
Roots need air to function, and a
cats and dogs rain temporarily
drives all the air out of the ground.
Roots start to breathe and function
again only after gravity has pulled
excess water deeper into the ground.
A timely watering will spur plant
growth in those drier periods
between rains.
WATERING TRIAGE
This doesnt mean you need to set
up elaborate irrigation systems to
water every maple, marigold, lettuce
leaf and lawn grass. Such a degree of
control would take too much of what
is natural out of gardening.
Too much perfection in watering
can even cause trouble in some set-
tings, such as when it spurs invasion
of aggressive grasses into a wild-
ower garden. Depending on what
you grow, how you take care of your
plants, and general rainfall patterns
in the region, most of your yard
might not justify being watered.
The part of the garden that cries
out most for timely watering almost
everywhere is the vegetable garden.
Most vegetables are annual plants, so
have their thirst quenched by just a
seasons growth of roots. Whats
more, we want our vegetables tender
and juicy, qualities that come from
cells plumped full of water.
Not all vegetables, though, are
equally demanding of water. Lettuce
and radishes do reach perfection
only in consistently moist soil, but
tomatoes actually taste best if kept
slightly dry.
Lets sidle over to the ower bed
now. Annual owers need water until
their roots establish themselves.
Beyond the establishment phase,
though, there are plenty of annual,
biennial and perennial owers that
grow well with little or no watering.
Some such owers that come to
mind are Russian sage, potentilla,
pinks, coneflower, lavender and
yarrow, as well as globe-
ower, strawower and
other owers known to
dry well after cutting.
Of course, if your goal
is an English ower gar-
den lush with roses and
spires of delphinium,
supplemental watering is
probably needed. In that
case, moving your garden
to England also might be
justied.
Like annuals, newly
planted or young trees,
shrubs and vines need to be watered
until they get established. These
plants also eventually get along ne
without supplemental watering if
plants are chosen that are adapted to
their locations.
Smaller plants establish them-
selves more quickly than larger
plants, so think twice before planting
a 10-foot-high tree; it will require
years of timely and abundant water-
ing.
MAKING THE MOST OF WATER
Whether youre growing vegeta-
bles, owers or trees, how you care
for the soil can have as much impact
on satisfying your plants thirst as
can watering itself.
Applying plenty of organic materi-
als, such as compost, leaves and
straw, makes any soil better able to
sponge up extra moisture.
Another way to preserve moisture
is to avoid digging or tilling these
activities disrupt capillary water con-
nections in the soil and burn up
those water-retaining organic materi-
als.
Laid on top of the ground as
mulches, those organic materials
prevent evaporation of water from
the grounds surface at the same time
they enrich the soil with organic mat-
ter and obviate the need for tilling to
control weeds.
Whenever some plants justify
watering because of a freak dry sea-
son or just because of the kinds of
plants they are, do it right. Figure, on
average, on plants needing a 1-inch
depth of water per week, as rainfall
or sprinkler-fall, measured into a
straight-sided container. If you use
drip irrigation, a watering can or a
hose, translate that gure into a half-
gallon per square foot of planted area
or estimated spread of roots. Double
or triple that amount for deep-rooted
plants, such as larger trees.
If youre going to stand there with
hose in hand, supplying that much
water is going to take you longer
than you think. No matter how you
water, dig down into the soil occa-
sionally and check for moisture
yourself.
Even when it rains, dont forget to water
Even in wet seasons, watering usually helps, because the water that falls then isnt all available to plants. Roots
need air to function, and a cats and dogs rain temporarily drives all the air out of the ground.

A new haunt
John Ryan remembers seeing the
Johnston House when he was driving out
from Redwood City to Half Moon Bay
as a kid.
Back then, it was the haunted house,
he said.
When Ryan later moved to Half Moon
Bay as an adult he remembers looking
up at the renovated house.
I couldnt believe it, said Ryan, who
is now president of the Johnston House
board. I was shocked at what they had
done.
Since Smithsonian historians Malcolm
and Joan Watkins stumbled upon the
architectural diamond in the rough,
almost all renovating has been done by
volunteers, said Ryan.
Its been a labor of love for a lot of
people, said Ryan, who frequently
comes up to the house from his ofce
down the road to work on the house and
enjoy the calm.
Johnstons love and loss
The New England saltbox-style home
brings Barbara VonGlahns local history
books to life. The house was built before
Half Moon Bay became a city, she said.
Johnston was trying to make a state-
ment with the house, said Barbara
VonGlahn, a Johnston House docent.
And he still is today.
Walking through the house, VonGlahn
constantly lights up with stories to tell.
Johnston built a chapel room in the
house for his Catholic mother-in-law
Molita, she said.
VonGlahn suspects that the Johnstons
were great hosts to more than just fami-
ly members. They fostered a community
of many races. In fact, their Chinese ser-
vant Sam ended up marrying a Mexican
woman, said VonGlahn. And Molita then
baptized Sam to be Catholic.
Its important to know about our
ancestors, said Carolyn Waring, who
runs the Johnston House holiday bou-
tique. There are not many buildings in
California that are this old, she said.
The inside of the house has been fur-
nished with pieces from the era when it
was built, with a few of the original
pieces. Much of the remaking of the
interior and south garden are based on
written accounts of a 14-year-old girl
who visited the Johnstons.
Waring, who moved to Half Moon
Bay a year ago, is captivated by the
romance and tragedy of the house.
Before starting to build the house,
Johnston asked two of his brothers to
bring 800 dairy cattle to California from
Ohio. The animals that survived the griz-
zly bears became the rst dairy cattle on
the West Coast. Johnston also owned a
popular saloon in San Francisco.
While the vision of a grand family
home came to life for James Johnston,
the dream realized was short-lived, said
Waring. Petra died after childbirth com-
plications in having their fourth child.
Unable to cope, Johnston left his
mother-in-law and four children and
moved to San Francisco where he later
died alone in a hotel room.
Waring and VonGlahn suspect that
Johnston lost his money in an 1873 eco-
nomic bust, which they explained was
similar to todays economic downturn.
Mysterious construction
The volunteers agreed that the houses
original construction is one of its many
marvels.
The mystery is who could construct
something like this, said VonGlahn,
adding that the surrounding habitants in
the 1850s were in mere adobe huts.
It was a momentous challenge to get
the timber transported to the site, said
Ryan. Logs from the Santa Cruz moun-
tains were loaded onto a ship and then
thrown overboard in the Bay.
The house has its original redwood
frame construction, said Ryan. The
frame is not nailed together, but made by
mortice-and-tenon construction fas-
tening of beams using holes and dowels.
Continued from page 1
HOUSE
The house is open for free tours the
third Saturday of the month 11 p.m
to 3 p.m. Private tours also available.
The Johnston House holiday
boutique is on the rst two weekends
in November.

If you go
creative in its cuts.
As proposed, the tax would be used to
sustain neighborhood schools, reduce
the number of combination classes,
attract and retain teachers, reduce the
cost of special education and fund cur-
riculum modernization, according to the
proposed measure language. It requires
two-thirds support to pass. If passed, the
tax would go into effect July 1, 2013.
Sanchez said the measure is not just
about this year. The district could lose
$1.17 million if the states sales tax
measures do not pass. Who knows what
the future years will require in terms of
cuts, he said.
We just know the cuts for this year,
said Sanchez. We need to take a strate-
gic planning approach to be ahead of the
curve.
Blanco, who generally favors the idea
of a parcel tax, shared concerns. She felt
the proposed language was too vague
and the timing was poor. The November
ballot, she said, has many measures
already.
I dont feel that the community trusts
the district enough to pass this parcel
tax, she said.
Board President Skip Henderson dis-
agreed. He felt the support was there and
it could pass. But that will require every-
one to work together, he said. Being
more specic about how the money will
support academic achievement will be
addressed in the future, he said.
San Bruno voters have not historically
been supportive of tax measures.
Measure O, a $40 million bond, failed
to achieve the 55 percent threshold need-
ed to pass in 2011. The board placed the
measure on the ballot in hopes of fund-
ing facility upgrades including nishing
upgrades at Parkside Intermediate
School.
While the district hasnt previously
gone to the voters for a parcel tax, it did
consider an $87 annual levy in 2008. In
fact, the board voted to put it on the
March 2009 ballot. But in November
2008, the measure was brought back
before the board after parents expressed
an understanding for the need, but did
not think the timing nor the approved
ballot language was right. The decision
was rescinded, in a 3-2 vote, with
trustees Jennifer Blanco and Kevin
Martinez dissenting.
San Bruno is the third district to place
a measure on the November ballot.
The San Carlos Elementary School
District Board of Trustees previously
placed a $72 million bond measure on
the November ballot, which could be
used for updating technology, repairing
schools, improving trafc safety, reduc-
ing overcrowding and upgrading energy
efciencies to create long-term savings,
according to the district.
On Tuesday, the Burlingame
Elementary School District placed a $56
million bond measure on the November
ballot to increase capacity and technolo-
gy.

TAX
THURSDAY, JULY 26, 2012
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- There is a possibility that
certain key elements might not be as advantageous
as you frst thought, so be smart and carefully screen
all proposals that are presented to you.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Although your percep-
tions and insights are quite sharp, the methods you
use to implement them might be impractical. Try to
execute your ideas as cleverly as they deserve.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- You might know what you
want, but if you are clueless about how to transmit
your ideas, you wont get anywhere. Try to do your
best to lucidly communicate your brainstorms.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- The possibilities for
achieving success look quite encouraging, but only if
you do not involve yourself with persons who have no
real interests in your aims. Stick with supporters only.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Honor all the
commitments youve made, even if you have second
thoughts. Though other alternatives may look promis-
ing, keeping your word will count the most.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Be sure to render
full service for what you are being paid to do. If your
performance fails to meet expectations, it could
damage your reputation.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- When risky involve-
ments are at stake, follow your instincts and dont
go against your prudent judgment. If your inner voice
warns you about taking a chance, heed it.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- If you do something
kind for another, do it without making the recipient
feel as if he or she is now obligated to you in some
manner. That would negate whatever nice thing
youve just done.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Dont hesitate to revive
some of your long-standing plans if they didnt
produce as hoped. Some kind of minor change might
turn out to be just what the doctor ordered.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Spend any small sur-
plus you might have on something you consider to be
worthwhile, instead of frittering it away. At least youll
have something to show for it.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- If you feel what is being
asked of you is unjust, dont make any concessions,
even if youre under pressure. Make sure to take a
frm position and stand up for what you believe.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Even though they might
not be as substantial as youd hoped, be appreciative
of any gains that come your way. Anything is better
than coming up empty-handed.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Elias Khenaisser
Case Number 122542
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: Elias Khenaisser. A Pe-
tition for Probate has been filed by Ste-
ven N. Khenaisser in the Superior Court
of California, County of San Mateo. The
Petition for Probate requests that Steven
N. Khenaisser be appointed as personal
representative to administer the estate of
the decedent.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ster the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This
athourity will allow the personal repre-
sentative to take many actions without
obtaining court approval. Before taking
certain very important actions, however,
the personal representative will be re-
quired to give notice to interested per-
sons unless they have waived notice or
consented to the proposed action.) The
independent administration authority will
be granted unless an interested person
files an objection to 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: August 20, 2012 at
9:00 a.m., Dept. 28, Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo, 400
County Center, 1st Floor, Redwood City,
CA 94063. If you object to the granting
of the petition, you should appear at the
hearing and state your objections or file
written 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.

DERS If you are considering bidding on
this property lien, you should understand
that there are risks involved in bidding at
a trustee auction. You will be bidding on
a lien, not on the property itself. Placing
the highest bid at a trustee auction does
not automatically entitle you to free and
clear ownership of the property. You
should also be aware that the lien being
auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you
are the highest bidder at the auction,
you are or may be responsible for paying
off all liens senior to the lien being auc-
tioned off, before you can receive clear
title to the property. You are encouraged
to investigate the existence, priority and
size of outstanding liens that may exist
on this property by contacting the county
recorder's office or a title insurance com-
pany, either of which may charge you a
fee for this information. If you consult ei-
ther of these resources, you should be
aware that the same lender may hold
more than one mortgage or deed of trust
on the property. NOTICE TO PROPER-
TY OWNER The sale date shown on this
notice of sale may be postponed one or
more times by the mortgagee, beneficia-
ry, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Sec-
tion 2924g of the California Civil Code.
The law requires that information about
trustee sale postponements be made
available to you and to the public, as a
courtesy to those not present at the
sale. If you wish to learn whether your
sale date has been postponed, and if ap-
plicable, the rescheduled time and date
for the sale of this property, you may call

assigned to this case 8325.20121. In-
formation about postponements that are
very short in duration or that occur close
in time to the scheduled sale may not
immediately be reflected in the telephone
information or on the Internet Web site.
The best way to verify postponement in-
