Gay marriage before appeals court
By Paul Elias
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — The judge who over-
turned California’s gay marriage ban was
unrelenting in his repudiation of the measure,
saying such laws are mean-spirited and uncon-
stitutional to the core.
It was a harsh yet carefully worded ruling
that some experts said would be tough to over-
turn as the landmark legal debate goes to the
appeals court and then possibly to the U.S.
Supreme Court. Others say the power of con-
servative judges on those courts could be
enough to thwart gay marriage and stop the
movement in its tracks.
Sure to be at the center of the debate is
whether California’s Proposition 8 violates the
14th Amendment, which guarantees equal pro-
tections for all and declares that government
won’t take away “life, liberty or property”
without due process.
U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker said on
several occasions in his ruling that he believes
gay marriage bans clearly deprive people of
those rights.
“The evidence at trial regarding the cam-
paign to pass Proposition 8 uncloaks the most
likely explanation for its passage: a desire to
advance the belief that opposite-sex couples are
morally superior to same-sex couples,” he said.
Walker’s ruling offers a preview of some of
the arguments that will play out on the 9th U.S.
Circuit Court of Appeals — the nation’s largest
and most unpredictable federal appeals court.
Experts say the court will play a huge role in
determining the future of the case.
A randomly selected three-judge panel of
the court will consider the case next. The 9th
Circuit is viewed as a liberal court, but its
sheer size of 27 active judges and the many
cutting-edge legal issues it receives from west-
ern states leaves it with an inconsistent track
record.
And there’s no disputing that the court has
some hot-button social issues in front of it
right now. Just last week, the controversial
Arizona immigration law landed at the court.
The court is routinely rebuffed by the
Supreme Court and federal lawmakers for
striking down the Pledge of Allegiance,
upholding California’s medical marijuana law
and other decisions viewed as resting outside
the mainstream.
Legal experts such as Stanford University
law professor Michael Wald said that Walker’s
opinion was strongly worded, well-reasoned
and could be difficult to overturn.

Mexican court upholds
same-sex marriage law
By Mark Stevenson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MEXICO CITY — Mexico’s Supreme
Court ruled Thursday that a law allowing
same-sex marriages in Mexico City is con-
stitutional, rejecting an appeal by federal
prosecutors who argued it violated the char-
ter’s guarantees to protect the family.
The justices’ 8-2 ruling handed a legal
victory to hundreds of same-sex couples
who have been married in Mexico’s capital
since the landmark law took effect March 4.
When approved last December, it was the
first law in Latin America explicitly giving
gay marriages the same status as heterosex-
ual ones, including adoption.
The court, however, must still rule on the
adoption clause and whether the ruling will
affect states outside of the capital. It is
expected to address adoption on Monday.
“We are very happy,” said Mexico City
lawyer Leticia Bonifaz, who argued Mexico

City’s case. “It fell to us to carry to a con-
clusion a struggle that has taken a long
time.”
Justices who voted on the majority side
stressed that while Mexico’s constitution
enshrines protection for families, it does not
define what a “family” is.
“It does not appear to me to be unconsti-
tutional,” Justice Jose Gudino said during
Thursday’s session. “The concept of the
family established in the constitution ... is
an open concept.”
Jaime Lopez Vela, a leader of the group
Lesbian, Gay, Transsexual and Transgender,
was among a group of activists who cele-
brated the ruling outside the court.
“Now we hope that the final ruling
declares it all constitutional,” he said, refer-
ring to adoption.
The law was opposed by Mexico’s
Roman Catholic Church and the conserva-
tive government of President Felipe
Calderon.

On a 12-5 party line vote, the committee

times travels in a turboprop airplane operated
by the state attorney general’s office, despite
recently saying that as governor he would cut
back on expenses including private jets and
“things considered luxuries.”
Records reviewed Thursday by the
Associated Press show the plane has been
used on at least nine days over the last year.
Christine Gasparac, a spokeswoman for the
attorney general’s office, said Brown used the
Beechcraft Super King Air 200 just three
times since July 2009, all on official state
business: to attend the funeral for a California
Highway Patrol officer on March 8; for a gang
takedown and press conference in Salinas on
April 22; and to attend a meeting with local
sheriffs in Truckee on June 17.
Gasparac said all flights included only
Department of Justice personnel, except on
the Fresno flight, when California Highway
Patrol Commissioner Joe Farrow accompa-
nied them.
“It’s a law enforcement plane, and they only
use it for law enforcement purposes,” she said.

The Senate confirmed Elena Kagan Thursday as the Supreme Court’s 112th justice.
Senate confirms Elena
Kagan as 112th justice
By Julie Hirschfeld Davis
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The Senate confirmed
Elena Kagan Thursday as the Supreme
Court’s 112th justice and the fourth woman in
its history, granting a lifetime term to a lawyer
and academic with a reputation for brilliance,
a dry sense of humor and a liberal bent.
The vote was 63-37 for President Barack
Obama’s nominee to succeed retired Justice
John Paul Stevens.
Five Republicans joined all but one
Democrat and the Senate’s two independents
to support Kagan. In a rarely practiced ritual
reserved for the most historic votes, senators
sat at their desks and stood to cast their votes
with “ayes” and “nays.”
Kagan watched on TV in the conference
room at the solicitor general’s office, with her
Justice Department colleagues looking on.
She’s to be sworn in Saturday afternoon at the
court by Chief Justice John Roberts.
Obama, traveling in Chicago, said Kagan

will make an outstanding justice who under-
stands that her rulings affect people, and
called the addition of another woman to the
court a sign of progress for the country. He
invited Kagan to the White House Friday for
a ceremony marking her confirmation.
The vote, Obama said, was “an affirmation
of her character and her temperament; her
open-mindedness and evenhandedness; her
determination to hear all sides of every story
and consider all possible arguments.”
Kagan isn’t expected to alter the ideological
balance of the court, where Stevens was con-
sidered a leader of the liberal wing. But the
two parties clashed over her nomination and
the court itself. Republicans argued that
Kagan was a politically motivated activist
who would be unable to put aside her opin-
ions and rule impartially. Democrats defended
her as a highly qualified trailblazer for women
who could bring a note of moderation and
real-world experience to a polarized court
they said was dominated by just the kind of
activists the GOP denounced.
Fourteen charged
with supporting
Somali terrorists
By Pete Yost and Amy Forliti
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The government
announced Thursday that it has charged 14
people as participants in “a deadly pipeline” to
Somalia that routed money and fighters from
the United States to the terrorist group al-
Shabab.
The indictments unsealed in Minneapolis,
San Diego and Mobile, Ala., reflect “a disturb-
ing trend” of recruitment efforts targeting U.S.
residents to become terrorists, Attorney
General Eric Holder told a news conference.
In one case, two women pleaded for money
“to support violent jihad in Somalia,” accord-
ing to an indictment.
The attorney general credited Muslim com-
munity leaders in the United States for regu-
larly denouncing terrorists and for providing
critical assistance to law enforcement to help
disrupt terrorist plots and combat radicaliza-
tion. “We must ... work to prevent this type of
radicalization from ever taking hold,” Holder
said.
Of the 14 people charged at least half are
U.S. citizens and 12 of them are out of the
country, including 10 men from Minnesota
who allegedly left to join al-Shabab. Seven of
those 10 Minnesota men named in one of
Thursday’s indictments had been charged pre-
viously in the probe.
Al-Shabab is a Somali insurgent faction
embracing a radical form of Islam similar to
the harsh, conservative brand practiced by
Afghanistan’s Taliban regime. Its fighters,
numbering several thousand strong, are bat-
tling Somalia’s weakened government and
Friday • Aug. 6, 2010 7
have been branded a terrorist group with ties to
al-Qaida by the U.S. and other Western coun-
tries.
Terrorist organizations such as al-Shabab
continue to radicalize and recruit U.S. citizens
and others to train and fight with them, said
Sean Joyce, the FBI’s executive assistant
director for the national security branch.
One of two indictments issued in Minnesota
alleges that two Somali women who were
among those charged, and others, went door to
door in Minneapolis; Rochester, Minn., and
elsewhere in the U.S. and Canada to raise
funds for al-Shabab’s operations in Somalia.
The indictment says the women — the only
two people indicted Thursday who remain in
the United States — raised the money under
false pretenses, claiming it would go to the
poor and needy, and used phony names for
recipients to conceal that the money was going
to al-Shabab.
Omar Hammami, who is now known as Abu
Mansour al-Amriki, or “the American,” was
charged in Mobile, Ala. He has become one of
al-Shabab’s most high-profile members. He
appeared in a jihadist video in May 2009.
At the news conference, Holder said
Hammami has appeared in several propaganda
videos for al-Shabab and “has assumed an
operational role in that organization.”
Hammami grew up in the middle-class town
of Daphne, Ala., and attended the University
of South Alabama in Mobile, where he was
president of the Muslim Student Association
nine years ago. Hammami, 26, enrolled at the
university in 2001 but left in 2002; school offi-
cials said they have been unaware of his
whereabouts since then.

Senate approves jobs bill to stop teacher layoffs
By Andrew Taylor
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Congress is
moving rapidly just weeks before the
start of the school year to speed bil-
lions of dollars in emergency educa-
tion aid to states in hopes of reversing
the layoffs of tens of thousands of
teachers.
Some $10 billion in aid to school
districts is set to flow after a 61-39
Senate vote Thursday — to be fol-
lowed quickly by a House vote next
week — in hopes that it will come in
time for many school districts to
reconsider teacher layoffs.
Thursday’s vote was a hard-earned
but partial victory for Democrats and
President Barack Obama. Advocates
said it could save the jobs of up to
300,000 teachers, police and other
public workers.
The measure would provide anoth-

such as avoiding tax increases and
preserving the jobs of state employ-
ees. About three-fifths of state gov-
ernments have already factored in the
federal help when drawing up budg-
ets for the ongoing fiscal year.
The vote caps months of effort by
governors of both parties, public
employee unions and others seeking
to extend programs enacted in last
year’s economic stimulus law. That
measure provided budget relief to
states and local school districts hurt

Two killed, dozens hurt in school bus crash in Mo.
GRAY SUMMIT, Mo. — Two buses packed with members
of a high school marching band slammed into a freeway wreck
that happened right in front of them on Thursday, crushing a
pickup truck and killing its driver — the son of a political
hopeful — as well as one of the students.
Dozens of other students from the John F. Hodge High
School in St. James were taken to hospitals for treatment after
the crash, which happened on a highway near Gray Summit,
about 40 miles west of St. Louis. Most of the injuries were
minor, and only two students remained hospitalized Thursday
evening.
The students were traveling to a Six Flags amusement park
about 10 miles from the crash site.
According to the State Highway Patrol, a pickup truck driv-
en by 19-year-old Daniel Schatz, a former reserve quarterback
for the University of Missouri football team and the son of
Republican state House candidate Dave Schatz, slammed into
the back of a semi cab that had slowed approaching a con-
struction zone.
The forward-most of the two buses carrying the St. James
students slammed into the back of Schatz’s truck, then landed
on top of it after it was rammed from behind by the other bus,
said Highway Patrol Cpl. Jeff Wilson.
Jessica Brinker, a 15-year-old student who was sitting in the
back of the first bus, was killed, the Patrol said.
Kolby Griffith, 17, said he was chatting with friends on the
second bus when it crashed, and that everything happened so
quickly it was a blur.
“It was all very, very quick,” Griffith said. “I was trying to
get away, trying to get everyone away from the bus because I
could smell gas.”
Griffith, who was evaluated and released at SSM Cardinal
Glennon Children’s Medical Center in St. Louis, was among
about three dozen students who were called into a room at the
hospital and told about Brinker’s death.
U.S. hiker in Iranian jail allowed brief call to mom
ST. PAUL, Minn. — One the three American hikers jailed in
Iran told her mother in a brief telephone call this week that
prison officials have denied her requests for medical treatment
and a cellmate, her mother said Thursday.
Sarah Shourd’s mother, Nora, said her daughter was allowed
to call her cell phone on Monday and the two talked for three
or four minutes. It was only the second phone call her 31-year-
old daughter has been permitted to make since she was jailed
in Iran more than a year ago.
The mother said they talked about her daughter’s medical
problems, including a breast lump and precancerous cervical
cells, and her solitary confinement in Tehran’s Evin prison.
She said her daughter has asked jailers for medical treatment
and a cellmate — but her requests have been ignored.
Nora Shourd said her daughter told her, “They won’t listen
to me.”
Sarah Shourd, Shane Bauer and Joshua Fattal were seized
by Iranian authorities while they were on a hiking trip in the
mountainous Kurdistan region of northern Iraq in July 2009,
according to their families. The Iranian authorities accused
them of illegally crossing the border. Their families have said
they may have been captured on the Iraqi side of the border,
and the U.S. government has called for their release.
“Of course it’s always wonderful to hear your daughter’s
voice,” Nora Shourd told the Associated Press. “And she did
sound strong. She sounded positive and strong in a way but at
the end of the phone call it all broke down, when you have to
say goodbye at the end of the phone call.”

Not a perfect path,but an important step for equal rights
T
he joy on the faces of
those who supported Chief
U.S. District Judge Vaughn
Walker’s decision to overturn
Proposition 8 was certainly evident
Wednesday. For many, it was
another step toward victory in a
long battle to allow them to marry
who they choose regardless of gen-
der. For others, it was a validation
that the legion of those who believe
they should have equal rights is
growing and the arguments against
them are weakening.
There are others who do not like
the decision and their reasons are
varied. Some simply find the idea
of same-sex marriage offensive,
reprehensible or simply unnatural.
Others argued that Proposition 8
was needed as a safeguard for the
tradition of marriage.
There are still others who may
support same-sex marriage rights
but take issue with the judicial sys-
tem overturning the will of the peo-
ple. California’s electorate passed

others in the future. What those
cases may be is not for us to know
right now and the impact of this
particular decision on others cannot
currently be concluded. However,
any time the democratic process is
sidestepped should be cause for
hesitation.
But that is of little importance
for those who believe this issue is
too important right now and who

holds for this case is not known but
it certainly will not be a gilded
path.
A better tactic invulnerable to the
dangers of the judicial system over-
turning the will of the people
would be to present the issue back
to the voters and see if the elec-
torate had changed its mind. It is
clear that public sentiment is slow-
ly shifting on this issue and eventu-
ally such a proposition would pass
and become the law of the land.
There will be a time in which cer-
tain viewpoints — some say tradi-
tional, others say archaic — will be
extinguished. It is unfortunate that
this path through the courts was
taken considering the unknowns as
it makes its way to the Supreme
Court. However, this is not a per-
fect world and any step toward
equality — however flawed — is
one that we as a collective people
should take.
There may be a time in the future
in which our descendants look back
and wonder why people who loved
each other could not enjoy the
same rights as others. And they
may wonder what the big deal was.
It will be a time in which people
can choose who they wish to marry
without fear of having that right
taken away or of facing the scorn
of those who believe what they are
doing is somehow wrong. It will be
a time in which all enjoy the bene-
fits of the institution of marriage
without recourse and fear. That
time will come and the joy on the
faces of those emboldened and
cheered by Walker’s ruling will be
the image of another time — a past
in which tolerance and acceptance
gained further footing.

High-speed rail faulty
recommendations
Editor,
On Thursday, Aug. 5, the
California High-Speed Rail
Authority decided that it would
ignore the plainly stated wishes of
the city and citizens of San Mateo to
construct the new high-speed rail in a
tunnel or covered trench through
downtown San Mateo. In doing so, it
based its decision on flawed findings
in its Supplemental Alternatives
Analysis Report. Among these, I
would briefly point to three:
• That the aerial viaduct option is
consistent with currently adopted
land use policies while the tunnel or
covered trench is not (p. 4-21);
• That there will be no disruption
to existing railways, i.e. Caltrain and
freight service (p. 4-21);
• And that the visual impact por-
tion of the analysis considers only
the residential properties immediate-
ly adjacent to the tracks, with no
consideration of residences further
away, or the effect on businesses and
the heart of downtown San Mateo
(p.4-23).
And lastly, the details of estimates
of costs for the various options are
not included in the report, nor are
any efforts made to include cost/ben-
efits not directly related to construc-
tion. Two examples are: The disrup-
tion to our downtown businesses dur-
ing construction, and the potential
benefits of ground level area made
available for use to the community
by a covered trench or tunnel.
I urge the San Mateo City
Council to quickly and forcefully
address the faulty conclusions
arrived at by CHSRA.

‘Peninsula high-speed rail’
Editor,
The idea that there must be 200
mph trains running all over the place
is a little ridiculous. In fact, within
the Bay Area passenger trains with
speeds of 125 and 150 mph would
be more than fast enough. Even if
the high-speed rail fanatics managed
to cause trains of very high speeds to
be initially specified, their adverse
noise effects would soon lead to
speed restrictions. As an international
city of renown, San Francisco would
be a logical HSR end point.
However, this does not mean that the
trains must run up and down the
Peninsula at 200 mph. Oakland does
not need its own private high-speed
trains any more than Palmdale or
Anaheim or Bakersfield do. What
these cities do need are reliable and
frequent 125 mph or 150 mph trains.
In the case of Oakland and other
East Bay cities, this translates to a
sped up and otherwise beefed up
Capitol Corridor rail service, linked
efficiently to BART, HSR and other
rail and bus lines.

ter at ground-zero? I thought it was
a sick, insensitive effort to cause
more pain and drive a wedge
between decent Muslims and the
rest of the American people. In addi-
tion, we are coming up on the ninth
anniversary of our generation’s
Pearl Harbor: 9/11. Would the
Greatest Generation have allowed a
monument honoring the emperor of
Japan to be built nine years after the
sneak attack, three blocks away from
Pearl Harbor? Or would it be con-
sidered building a Hitler cultural
center in Paris only nine years after
War World II ended? It would have
been unthinkable to even suggest it.
It would have been an insult to
humanity. In like manner, building a
mosque near ground zero would be
like building a monument to the
murderers on top the bodies of the
victims of the attack. Building a
ground-zero mosque would cause
emotional and spiritual harm to
everyone. Decent Muslims would
agree it would be seen as an perpet-
ual insult.

NEW YORK — A surprisingly poor
signal on the jobs market sent stocks
slightly lower Thursday as investors
remained worried about a lack of hiring.
The modest drop came after the Labor
Department said first-time claims for
unemployment benefits rose unexpect-
edly last week.
Investors tried to muster a late-day
rally, but there wasn’t enough momen-
tum to push the Dow Jones industrial
average back into positive territory. The
Dow closed down 5 points after drop-
ping as much as 68 points earlier in the
day. Broader indexes also fell modestly.
Trading volume on the New York
Stock Exchange fell to its second-lowest
level of the year as many traders avoid
the market altogether.
The Labor Department said initial
claims for unemployment benefits
jumped to 479,000 last week from a
460,000 a week earlier. Economists
polled by Thomson Reuters had forecast
new claims would fall modestly.

deep discounts because they can’t shake
uncertainty about their jobs.
Retailers around the country posted a
sales increase of just 2.8 percent for July
over a year earlier — and at that time,
the economy looked much bleaker than
it does today.
The July figure, released Thursday by
the International Council of Shopping
Centers based on results from 31 chains,
was the fourth straight month of weak
retail numbers. For the most part, econo-
mists were disappointed.
Without more jobs, Americans are

SAN JOSE — In a surprise twist in a

Activision 2Q revenue,
3Q outlook disappoint
NEW YORK — A weaker-than-expect-
ed outlook for the current quarter sent
shares of Activision Blizzard Inc. lower in
after-hours trading Thursday, though the
video game publisher reaffirmed its out-
look for the full year.
The publisher of the blockbuster “Call
of Duty” and “Guitar Hero” games report-
ed a higher net income for the second
quarter as development expenses and
other costs declined, but fewer game
launches pushed revenue lower, shy of
Wall Street’s expectations.
Activision, which has a history of beat-
ing analysts’ forecasts, saw its shares fall
75 cents, or 6.4 percent, to $11 after-hours
trading Thursday after posting the results.
The company earned $219 million, or
17 cents per share in the April-June quar-
ter, up 12 percent from $195 million, or 15

growth the coming months.
“The trend is going exactly in the
wrong direction,” said Phil Orlando,
chief equity market strategist at
Federated Investors. However, Orlando
cautioned that layoffs of temporary cen-
sus workers might have skewed results
somewhat, and that’s why the market
didn’t fall that much.
Traders will get a stronger reading on
the jobs market Friday when the govern-
ment releases its closely watched month-
ly tally of payrolls and the unemploy-
ment rate. Investors have been getting
mixed signals on the economy in recent
weeks, and sent stocks higher on
Wednesday after payroll company ADP
reported that private employers slightly
increased hiring last month.
In other news, monthly retail sales
reports showed shoppers remain skittish
about spending as hiring remains scarce.
Costco Wholesale Corp. and Limited
Brands Inc. both reported big jumps in
July sales, but that was compared with
weak results a year ago.

rebound, they said. But without more
spending, companies will likely be slow
to hire.
“To break out of this, we need both
employment and consumption to come
up together,” said Nigel Gault, an econ-
omist at IHS Global Insight.
On Friday, the government will
release its snapshot of the nation’s job
market for July, and no one expects any-
thing strong. Private companies are
expected to have added 90,000 jobs for
the month, not nearly enough for healthy
economic growth.
The overall figure is expected to show
a loss of 65,000 jobs for July, because of
the end of temporary positions with the
U.S. Census Bureau. Unemployment is
not expected to budge much from its
current 9.5 percent, and may actually
rise.

Its net revenue fell 7 percent to $967

On an adjusted basis that excludes spe-

cents per share in the latest quarter. This is
a penny above Wall Street’s expectations.
Adjusted revenue, meanwhile, fell 15
percent to $683 million from $801. This
is below the $719.8 million that analysts
polled by Thomson Reuters had expect-
ed.

Thursday’s jobless claims report
added to a murky picture on the econo-
my heading into the monthly employ-
ment survey. The Labor Department is
expected to say private employers hired
90,000 workers in July, a slight increase
from the 83,000 hired in June. But
because of government layoffs tied to
cutting temporary census jobs, the
unemployment rate is expected to rise to
9.6 percent from 9.5 percent.
“With limited hiring by the private
sector, it is becoming increasingly diffi-
cult for the recovery to be sustained,”
said Andrew Gledhill, an economist at
Moody’s Economy.com.
The stock market finished just about
flat a day ahead of the jobs report.
In a reminder of how weak the job
market is, the government said Thursday
that first-time claims for unemployment
benefits rose last week to their highest
level in four months.
Claims rose by 19,000 to a seasonally
adjusted 479,000. Analysts had expected
a small drop. Claims have now risen
twice in the past three weeks.
Economists closely watch initial job-
less claims because they are considered
a gauge of the pace of layoffs and an
indication of employers’ willingness to
hire. And even at a time when profits are
coming back, businesses aren’t very
willing.

Scion xD still looking for attention By Ann M. Job

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The Scion xD is a thrifty, nimble, small hatchback made by

Toyota. It has more horsepower than its major competitors, and
for 2010, it’s a Consumer Reports recommended car with a
strong reliability record.
But the five-door, five-passenger xD can’t seem to shake the
image as the Rodney Dangerfield of small hatchbacks. Sales
are down 25.5 percent through the first seven months of 2010,
and the xD is the slowest-selling of all non-luxury Toyota cars.
It’s easy to overlook the xD at Toyota’s youth-oriented car
brand, Scion, where attention goes to the boxy-styled Scion xB
and the sporty-looking Scion coupe, the tC. But the xD, with
odd styling, also is no bargain.
The front-wheel drive, 2010 xD has a starting manufacturer’s
suggested retail price, including destination charge, of $15,620
with manual transmission and 128-horsepower, 1.8-liter four
cylinder. With automatic transmission, the lowest-priced 2010
xD starts at $16,420, and the test model with stylish alloy
wheels, rear spoiler, upgraded audio and other options topped
out at nearly $20,000.
The 2010 Nissan Versa, another small, four-cylinder-pow-
ered hatchback, has a starting retail price of $14,140 with man-
ual transmission and 122 horsepower. And the 2010 Toyota
Yaris hatchback, whose platform is used under the xD, starts at
$13,665. The Yaris, however, gets just 103 horses from its four-
cylinder engine and is a bit smaller than the xD. Even the 117-
horseower, 2010 Honda Fit, whose starting retail price of
$15,650 is on par with the xD, is outselling the xD by 5-to-1
this calendar year.
Introduced in 2007 as the replacement for the often over-
looked Scion xA, the xD is still searching for an identity.
It’s true the xD has the lowest starting retail price of all the
Scions for 2010. But the difference between the base xD and
the base MSRP, including destination charge, of the larger xB
is less than $1,000.
Still, the xD is a capable little car with some nifty features.
The back seat slides forward and aft to help accommodate the
needs of passengers and cargo. This is something not always
found in this segment. Rear seatbacks also recline. The xD’s
seat fabric looks pricier than buyers might expect in the seg-
ment. The split, folding rear seats go down for a flat cargo
space that maximizes at a decent 35.7 cubic feet.

Medicare fund
will last extra 12
BP has options on remaining oil
By Harry R. Weber
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

years — maybe NEW ORLEANS — The vast oil reservoir

By Stephen Ohlemacher
and Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Medicare is in better
shape because of President Barack Obama’s
sweeping health care overhaul and will stay
afloat a dozen years longer than earlier pro-
jected, trustees forecast Thursday. But that
depends on cuts in care that the system’s top
analyst says are highly doubtful.
The annual report by the trustees who over-
see Medicare and Social Security, led by
Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner, gives
backers of the new health care law evidence of
a positive impact on government entitlement
programs, but it also undercuts the findings
with a host of caveats.
In what amounted to a dissenting opinion,
top Medicare actuary Richard Foster warned
that the report’s financial projections “do not
represent a reasonable expectation” for the
hospital fund for America’s elderly.
Kathleen Sebelius, secretary of health and
human services and one of the trustees, said
they were required to assume current law in
making their projections, including a cut in
Medicare payments to doctors. She, too, doubt-
ed the cuts would ever happen, “which is why
we continue to provide cautionary notes” in the
report. The trustees projected the Medicare
Hospital trust fund would be exhausted in
2029, or 12 years later than estimated last year.
The news wasn’t as rosy for Social Security,
which will pay out more in benefits than it col-
lects in taxes for the first time in decades this
year and next year. The Social Security trust
funds are expected to be exhausted in 2037, the
same date as in last year’s report.
beneath BP’s blown-out well could still be worth
billions of dollars even after it spewed crude into
the Gulf of Mexico for more than three months
— but the multinational company blamed for
causing the disaster isn’t saying whether it plans
to cash in on this potential windfall.
As BP on Thursday finished pumping
cement into the blown well in hopes of sealing
it for good, it insisted it had no plans to use it
or its two relief wells to produce oil. But the
company won’t comment on the possibility of
drilling in the same block of sea floor some-
day or selling the rights to the entire tract to
another oil company.
None of this is likely to sit well with the
people who lost their livelihoods from one of
history’s worst oil spills — and who might

gearshifter felt a bit notchy, and the 1.8-liter,
four-cylinder engine could get raucous when
pressed. Torque peaks at 125 foot-pounds at
4,400 rpm. This compares with 127 foot-

But I mostly noticed inside the xD the near-
deafening sounds of road noise on certain

alloy wheels that young people favor these
days. The ride was a bit rough, too, in large
part because the low-profile tires had little
sidewall to absorb bumps. Note that standard
tires and wheels are 16-inchers.
Because of the short distance — less than
100 inches — between front and rear wheels,
the xD had a tendency to bob up and down on
some road surfaces, such as over bridge
expansion joints. But the little xD got me
around without a hiccup, and I parked with
ease in almost any parking spot that I saw.
Yes, the xD can be an excellent, no-fuss urban

39 inches in the back seat of Honda’s Fit, and
rear-seat legroom in the xD measures 33.9
inches compared with 34.5 inches in the Fit.
No one looked at the xD during the test
drive. It’s neither sleek and sporty nor cute.
Rather, the thick pillars around the windows,
front and rear, and an overall shape that’s akin
to a short wagon make the xD look a little
odd.

Female football coach ready for first practice

By Joseph White
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — On the eve of
her practice debut as a female head
coach of a high school team, Natalie
Randolph put a black visor over her
dreadlocks and got a close-up look at
the big time on the sidelines Thursday
at Washington Redskins training
camp.
Did the petite biology and environ-
mental sciences teacher with the soft
voice need tips on how to keep over-
sized men under control? Not at all. In
fact, she’s already “cursed” at some of
her players for breaking rules at a
team building camp just a few days
ago.
Randolph was as much interested in
tips on how to deal with the nonstop
attention she’s received since March
12, when she was put in charge of the
Coolidge Colts at Coolidge Senior
High School in Washington, D.C..
She is believed to be the nation’s only
female head coach of a high school
varsity football team.
“When it comes down to it, I’m just

“So all of this is so foreign to me.”

Two runs not

Giants’ ace

ATLANTA — Teammates quietly wished

Eric Hinske a happy birthday before the game.
The celebration came afterward.
Hinske snapped an 0-for-17 hitless streak
with a tiebreaking, sixth-inning home run off
Tim Lincecum to help the Atlanta Braves to a 3-
2 victory over the San Francisco Giants on
Thursday night.
Alex Gonzalez hit a two-run homer in the sec-
ond inning — his second as a Brave — for the
only other runs off Lincecum (11-5).
Hinske talked more about the home run by
Gonzalez than he did about his own game-win-
ner.
The Giants had taken a 2-0 lead on single runs
in the first two innings before Gonzalez tied it.

ara Davis thought it was a joke. In
July of 2008, the incoming Notre
Dame-Belmont junior was diagnosed
with acute lympoblastic lymphoma, a type of
leukemia.
Of course, the news was anything but a
joke. But the lifelong Moss Beach resident
was in such a state of shock that it took her a
full month before she fully accepted the fact
that yes, she did have cancer.
When Davis’ pediatrician gave her the
news, she went into a restroom and stared into
the mirror for 10 minutes. One could only
imagine what she was thinking.
“I just stood there and took a picture in my
head,” said the 16-year-old Davis, who will be
competing in the U.S. Pony Club Western
Championships in the discipline of Dressage
at the Horse Park at

ending. On Nov. 11,
Davis will complete her final chemotherapy
treatment. It will certainly be an emotional
day, and Davis’ family and friends are going
to celebrate the moment “with a huge party
somewhere.”
At the time of her diagnosis, Davis didn’t
know what it all meant. She knows now.
Cancer means having your world turned
upside down. It means enduring painful
chemotherapy treatments, which sap your
energy levels, and worse yet, drains your soul.
It means losing weight — the 5-foot-1 Davis
went from her normal 110 pounds to a low of

“I knew I had to be strong not only for
myself but for them,” she said. “I had a lot of
people rooting for me and when you see that,

49ers counting on deep receiving corps
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SANTA CLARA — When Alex
Smith drops back to pass these days,
the quarterback sees the most talent-
ed and promising collection of wide
receivers since he joined the San
Francisco 49ers five years ago.
That’s quite a difference from the
unsettled group Smith has worked
with since he became the NFL’s No.
1 overall draft pick in 2005, and it’s
the reason the 49ers are confident
their passing attack this season can
lift an offense that has been among
the NFL’s worst over the past six
years.
For the first time in his career,
Smith came to training camp this
week with the same two starting
wideouts who lined up beside him
last year: Michael Crabtree and Josh
Morgan.
There also is plenty of potential in
other candidates competing for
roles in the receiver rotation.
“It’s fun being a quarterback and
having all those weapons outside,”
Smith said. “There’s a lot of possi-
bilities there. We have a lot of ver-
satility and a lot of different guys
that are capable of a lot of different
things.”

Head coach Mike Singletary
already has mentioned multiple
times since camp began that he is
pleased with the progress of his
offense. Much of that has to do with
the way Smith is collaborating with
his familiar wideouts and connect-
ing with deep threats Ted Ginn and
Brandon Jones.
The 49ers traded for Ginn during
the offseason and are looking for a
breakout this season from Jones
after giving him a $16.6 million deal
in free agency last year. Jones broke
a bone in his shoulder early in train-
ing camp last year and finished the
season with just one reception.
Raye has had no problem working
Ginn and Jones into his playbook
this summer.
“We’re excited about both of
them,” Raye said. “(Ginn) has come
into this training camp and he’s
been outstanding. If he continues to
improve the way he is, we will be
very pleased. Brandon’s situation
has changed from this time a year
ago because the people in the lines
and the emotional return home, cou-
pled with the victory, seemed to
enhance Gradkowski’s stock.
He compiled a 91.4 rating in his
four starts but missed the final three
games due to a knee injury.
He hurt himself again this offsea-
son when he tore a pectoral muscle
while lifting weights. The injury
required surgery that forced
Gradkowski to miss all the team’s
OTAs and minicamps.
That’s one of the reasons the
Raiders traded for Campbell. The
team also severed ties with Russell
after three disappointing seasons.

Gradkowski chuckled.

that will spill over into his play.”
Smith, coming off his best season,
also has Pro Bowlers around him in
running back Frank Gore and tight
end Vernon Davis. Gore had 52
receptions last season, and Davis
led the 49ers with 78 receptions for
965 yards while tying the NFL
record for touchdown receptions by
a tight end with 13.
San Francisco has finished 26th or
worse in the NFL rankings for total
offense five of the past six seasons.
The 49ers ranked 27th last year.
“It’s not only Crabtree, it’s also
Vernon, Frank and myself and oth-
ers,” Morgan said. “There are so

almost exclusively with the second-
team offense while Campbell has
taken the majority of reps with the

Oakland also has Kyle Boller and

asserted himself as vocally as
Gradkowski.

Pedro rejects offers to return to majors
By Ronald Blum
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Pedro Martinez’s
phone has been ringing during the
last two weeks.
Several major league teams — the
three-time Cy Young Award winner
won’t say which ones — called with
offers to pitch. He was flattered by
the invitations but turned them all
down.
“Very tempting,” he said
Thursday during an interview with
the Associated Press, “but I have
already committed to my kids for
the rest of the year and going on
vacations, and made plans already
with the family.”
Martinez signed in July 2009 with
Philadelphia, his fifth team in a big
league career that began in 1992. He
went 5-1 with a 3.63 ERA in nine
starts down the stretch and reached
the World Series for the second
time.
“He knows his body,” Los
Angeles Dodgers manager Joe Torre
said. “I think if he felt that he want-

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ARLINGTON, Texas — Add one
more win for Big Tex.
Nolan Ryan became the first for-
mer big leaguer to own a ballclub
when his group emerged from an
all-night bidding war early
Thursday with control of the Texas
Rangers.
“Did I ever think I’d be in a posi-
tion to be an owner of a major
league team?” the Hall of Fame
pitcher said, repeating the question.
“Not at all. But I never thought I’d
throw seven no-hitters, either.”
The auction came 17 years to the
day after Ryan’s memorable tussle
with Chicago White Sox star Robin
Ventura on the mound at old

“Usually when you give the two-
time Cy Young Award winner a two-
run lead, it’s over. It was a huge win
for us. You can’t underestimate getting
a win against their No. 1,” Hinske said.

the best pitchers in the National
League. We hit at the right time,”
Gonzalez said.

ence in the game,” Lincecum said.
that he’d come back if something
made sense for him.”
The 38-year-old righty has spent
most of this summer in the
Dominican Republic.
“It feels real good to be able to be
at home and get to hug mom every
time you want, see her every time
you want,” he said. “To be able to go
to the baseball field and see your
kids playing is really something.”
Still, it’s been trying in some
ways. He called this summer a test
for him, adjusting to “a different
life.”
“I do miss competing, being out
there — the atmosphere, I do miss
it,” he said. “Some other things I
don’t miss: the media and the pres-
sure of just being asked to do, and
being asked questions every day.
And actually just the load, six
months just working, not being able
to stop, not being able to really do
anything or behave like a normal
person.”
He came to New York this week
for an event with Gillette, helping
promote the company’s Ultimate
Summer Job Tour. While at home,
he finds himself surrounded when-

“It’s funny how dates coincide,”
Ryan said with a chuckle.
Just as Ryan and sports attorney
Chuck Greenberg were submitting
their final bid in bankruptcy court in
Fort Worth, Michael Young was hit-
ting a grand slam to seal the AL
West-leading Rangers’ 11-6 win at
Seattle.
“Except for two pitches, I would have
been OK.”
He didn’t think either home run
would go out, though.
“They had enough to clear the
fence, and that’s all that matters,” he
said.
Jair Jurrjens (4-4) went six innings
for the Braves, allowing seven hits,
two runs and three walks. He struck
out three.
“A huge lift,” Atlanta’s Chipper
Jones said of the home runs as well as
the pitching.

hit his 600th home run. Especially,
he said, because the New York
Yankees star is Dominican-
American. Unlike some, he doesn’t
have any qualms about A-Rod one
day making the Hall of Fame. He
thinks many of the sluggers under
the cloud of actual or alleged steroid
use, such as Rodriguez, Mark
McGwire and Sammy Sosa, belong
in the Hall.
“I think whoever did what they
did still deserves, just like Pete
Rose. He belongs,” Martinez said.

said.
Around 1 a.m., the Greenberg-
Ryan group won out over Dallas
Mavericks owner Mark Cuban.
Ryan declined to disclose per-
centages of ownership, but said he
is a minority owner. He will remain
team president and Greenberg will
serve as CEO.
“It was a long night, but a very
productive night,” Ryan said.
Someone offered Ryan a bottle of
champagne after this victory, but the
63-year-old former ace was drained.
“I had a small sip of it, but I was
so tired I wanted to go home,” he
said.
Major League Baseball could for-
one run in each and gave us a chance,
then turned it over to our bullpen,”
Jones said.
Billy Wagner picked up his 26th
save in 31 attempts with a scoreless
ninth.
Lincecum, who had won six of his
seven previous starts against Atlanta,
gave up six hits and three runs in 6 1-
3 innings, walking three and striking
out seven.
The NL East-leading Braves, who
have won three of four, own the best
home record in the majors at 37-14.
The Giants took a 2-0 lead on
Aubrey Huff’s RBI groundout in the
first and Andres Torres’ run-scoring
in the Hall of Fame. Those guys, it’s
going to take them a while, but
sooner or later they’re eventually
going to make it. I hope they make
it.”
It’s harder for Martinez to evalu-
ate his own chances. He compiled a
219-100 record and a 2.93 ERA in
18 seasons, won five ERA titles and
three strikeout crowns.
“I haven’t really stopped to see
what kind of numbers I have, but I
think I have a chance, a legit
chance,” he said. “Some of the
things I’ve done are really special.”
In his hometown of
Manoguayabo, a Santo Domingo
suburb, he’s donated land for a
youth baseball field that he’d like to
call “Little Fenway” in honor of the
Boston Red Sox, his team for seven
of his best seasons. He hopes to sur-
round the field with tennis and vol-
leyball courts.
Martinez’s foundation is working
with poor kids from the community.
“Those are the ones I’m embrac-
ing because I was like this, so I’m
taking a lot of those kids and being
a father to 800, 1000 kids and, hope-
fully, many more,” he said.

Ryan said he never thought of the
consequences of not being a part of
the Rangers — where he pitched his
final five seasons — or whether he
would have worked for Cuban.
“I hadn’t gone there mentally,”
Ryan said. “I had not allowed
myself to do that because I was very
concerned about our employees and
what we’re doing and the direction
we’re going.”

Hinske hit a 2-1 pitch over the right-

“The baseball would be a piece of

pretty sure they don’t regret it now,
but back then it was a big deal,” he
said.
He has a ready smile and a laugh,

— except when he was pitching.
Martinez had a different personality
when he took the mound,
“To me it was a great honor to
have 60,000 people just chant my

“I’m not a baseball player when I’m

But, oh, on the mound.
“That’s business,” he said. “I’m in
a jungle, and I consider myself a
lion. So I’m going to kill you if I’m
hungry. And I was always hungry to

Ryan said his group didn’t
increase its bid at the expense of
some “other aspect of the game or
organization, so we anticipate put-

Can Sonnen back up his brash talk vs.Silva?

Anderson Silva speaks spotty English, and
his Portuguese hasn’t been much better while
he’s supposed to be promoting his record sev-

Chael Sonnen at UFC 117.
The Brazilian mixed martial arts star’s aloof
silence is just one of many things annoying
Sonnen these days, but the rough-and-tumble
wrestler from Oregon has done enough talk-

of promotion.

Olympic team for the modern pentathlon,
which consists of running, fencing, swim-
ming, shooting and showjumping — all of
which is contested in one day.
Davis certainly has the pedigree to aim for
such a lofty goal. Before Davis was diagnosed
with cancer, she was the No. 1-ranked female
modern pentathlete in her age group in North
America, a winner of three national competi-
tions and one international event.
Four years ago, Davis was invited to a mod-
ern pentathlete camp at the U.S. Olympic
Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colo.,
having been spotted by a talent scout at a
competition in Southern California. From
there, Davis’ Olympic dreams were born.
Of course, those dreams were put on hold a
year later after Davis was diagnosed with can-

his wardrobe. He says Silva has “no fans and
one sponsor” after four years as a UFC cham-
pion. He thinks Silva has chosen easy fights to
defend his title, avoiding top wrestlers.
And though Sonnen is a heavy underdog at
Oakland’s Oracle Arena, he thinks the UFC
will be much better off if he manages an upset
victory Saturday night.
Silva’s strange behavior in the octagon and
taciturn nature outside it have exhausted even
UFC president Dana White, who calls him the
world’s pound-for-pound best fighter.
“I just don’t like him,” Sonnen said. “I don’t
have to have a reason. Not everybody can like
everybody. I’m going to go out there and take
his belt on the 7th, and Dana is going to fire
him on the 8th.”
Silva’s last title defense was a disastrous
or not remains to be seen. But one thing is cer-
tain: Her willpower alone will carry her a long
way.
To wit: Despite attending only three months
of classes during her freshman year due to her
treatments, Davis still maintained a 4.0 GPA.
And she even managed to practice — albeit on
a limited basis — with the school’s cross-
country and swimming teams.
Running has always been Davis’ strength,
but she also has a passion in the other disci-
plines of the modern pentathlon. Although
most girls in the U.S. grow up playing basket-
ball, soccer and volleyball — just to name a
few — Davis was drawn to the modern pen-
tathlon because of its diversity of events, her
love of horses and the unique aspect of the
sport.
“I thought shooting a gun was really cool,”
she said.
Davis can’t wait for the Western
Championships to begin. Dressage basically
tests a rider’s ability to communicate with the
horse and make the performance look seam-
less. Davis will be competing on Walk-about,
a horse that was given to Davis from the
Make-A-Wish Foundation in April to help

jumping portion of the modern pentathlon.

Bolt set the world record

As well as his performances, Bolt’s reputation

Walk-about and L.J., a horse she’s had since
age 7. Just thinking about her beloved horses
gave Davis an outlet from the daily grinds of
her treatment, which included painful shots
into her spine.
Although making the Olympics is a big goal
of hers, Davis plans on making an even more
significant difference in the game of life.
She’s already given a couple of speeches for
the American Cancer Society, and she plans
on raising awareness and money for cancer-
related programs for the rest of her life. Davis
feels giving back is the least she can do.
“One day I want to see a world where there
is no more cancer,” she said. “I want to make
sure (in the future) no one else has to go
through this.”
Long before Davis got cancer, she displayed
a generous spirit. When she was in the sixth
grade, Davis gave up plenty of her hair for
Locks of Love, a public non-profit organiza-
tion that provides hairpieces to financially dis-
advantaged children in the U.S. and Canada.
“I had really long hair at the time and fig-
ured if I didn’t need it, someone else could use
it,” she said.

she’s done for most of her life, Davis has con-

affects everyone, because everyone knows
someone who has or have had cancer.
But no matter the circumstances, it doesn’t
have to control you. Davis certainly hasn’t let
cancer own her. It’s been a long road, but
Davis sees the finish line. Come Nov. 11,
Davis will reflect on the day she was diag-

Sometimes, real life does imitate
Hollywood, and Davis’ inspirational journey
certainly has a too-good-to-be-true feel to it.
Perhaps radio talk-show host T.J.

Davis to his online radio show in an interview

said.
Indeed, Davis has given all of us a lesson on

Search for Pluto

fails to take off
By Patrick Condon
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

For a historical novel about the search for

Pluto, “Percival’s Planet” is a strangely earth-
bound book — a long, dry ramble through
Depression-era America likely to frustrate
readers expecting an exciting tale of man’s
skyward longing.
Michael Byers’ timing is good for a book
about Pluto. The release of “Percival’s
Planet” coincides with the 80th anniver-
sary of Pluto’s discovery, and comes
just

four
years after
t h e
International
Astronomical
Union made
headlines
worldwide by
demoting it to
the status of
dwarf planet.
Byers is the
author of two previous books, the well-regard-
ed story collection “The Coast of Good
Intentions” and the novel “Long for This
World,” a family saga and medical drama that
continues to deserve a wider readership.
But he stumbles here, miring
“Percival’s Planet” in superfluous
characters and subplots, and
never bothering to put the search
for what astronomers in the 1920s
called “Planet X” into any sort of
larger context.
“Percival’s Planet” is largely the Band’s

THE DAILY JOURNAL
MUSEUM GOTTA SEE ‘UM
By Susan Cohn
DAILY JOURNAL SENIOR CORRESPONDENT
There’s something happening here.
San Francisco’s Museum of Performance and Design
celebrates the Bay Area rock scene with its multi-media
exhibit “Somethin’s Happening Here: Bay Area Rock ‘n’
Roll 1963-1973,” charting the magic time from the rock-
infused early ‘60s to the last days of the Fillmore West.
What it is ain’t exactly clear.
Co-curators Melissa Leventon and Alec Palao evoke
this rich era using a wealth of rarely seen footage, posters,
images and costumes from private and public collections
and from the artists themselves. Palao said, “It was an
important caveat of ours in the assembly of the exhibit to
avoid the stereotypical “tie dye” approach of similar ret-
rospectives, and present a more balanced and objective
view of this magical period within the Bay Area’s cultur-
al past.”
There’s a man with a gun over there.
Original items on display include costume pieces worn
by Janis Joplin, Carlos Santana, Sly Stone; the full-sized
original painting featured on the Grateful Dead’s anthem
of the Sun album cover (3-D glasses provided); the famed
“Captain Trips” hat worn by Jerry Garcia; and original
posters from classic Bay Area venues, including the
Avalon Ballroom and the Fillmore Auditorium.
Telling me I got to beware.
Seminal local bands like The Beau Brummels, The
Charlatans, Country Joe and the Fish and Quicksilver
Messenger Service receive their due alongside better-
known Bay Area names like The Jefferson Airplane,
Santana, Grateful Dead and Sly and the Family Stone.
Above all, the show celebrates the timeless appeal of this
signal moment in 20th-century popular culture.
I think it’s time we stop, children, what’s that sound.
Five listening stations around the exhibit area allow vis-
itors to hear dozens of extremely rare audio clips, some of
them drawn from the important archive of recordings
from San Francisco’s KSAN that are now in MPD’s per-
manent collection. The breadth of the songs give a sense
of the depth of the show: We Five - You Were On My
Mind; Country Joe & The Fish - I Feel Like I’m Fixin To

People in the news
Lythgoe returning as executive producer of ‘Idol’
LOS ANGELES — A familiar face is coming back to
“American Idol,” and it’s not Paula Abdul or Simon Cowell.
Fox announced Thursday that British TV personality Nigel
Lythgoe is returning to the singing competition in the produc-
ing role he left two years ago.
Lythgoe originally served as “Idol” producer when it
debuted in 2002. He left to focus on “So You Think You Can
Dance,” the Fox dancing contest he executive produces and
judges. Fox said Thursday that Lythgoe will continue on that
show.
Lythgoe will rejoin “Idol” executive producers Cecile Frot-
Coutaz, Ken Warwick and creator Simon Fuller on behalf of
CKx Inc., which shares rights to the show with
FremantleMedia North America. His return had been widely
rumored the past week.

Truck foodies keep their wheels as they open shops
By Leanne Italie
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HOBOKEN, N.J. — Along the waterfront,
with postcard views of Manhattan across
the Hudson River, sweaty devotees of
The Taco Truck line up to order lunch,
scooting back to cooled-off jobs to eat
their slow-braised sweet pork or
long-grain rice and beans.
They were lucky. The bright
orange beast on wheels doesn’t
come around to their spot quite so
often since a new brick-and-mortar
sister restaurant opened just up the
street.
“I like being outside, but you’ve
got the AC at the store — oh yeah,”
said Michele Ward, a health club
fitness director.
Office workers here have been
feasting on the truck’s Mexican
street fare as food on the move has
taken off around the country. Food
WEEKEND JOURNAL
trucks have grown so popular in some areas
that a growing number of young operators
like Jason Scott in Hoboken are becoming
less, er, mobile.
“If your biggest dream is to keep a truck out
on the road forever,
I think
that’s great, but I knew that we wanted to do
this,” said Scott, who left behind a sales job
for a fly fishing equipment company. “I knew
that the truck was going to be the first step to
getting a restaurant open.”
With no formal background in food, Scott
partnered with Le Cordon Bleu-trained Chef
Roberto Santibanez, former culinary
director of New York City’s Rosa
Mexicana restaurants, to build an
authentic taqueria menu. The Taco Truck —
the restaurant — opened July 9 with the
same food, its metal logo out front a pro-
file of their big rolling baby. Inside,
floors resemble sidewalks and ban-
quettes look like park benches.
In west Los Angeles, Chef Roy
Choi — a phenom in mobile food
— changed concepts altogether
from his often-imitated Kogi
Korean barbecue taco trucks
when he opened his restaurant,
Chego, in a strip mall April 7.
He’s doing affordable rice bowls indoors
THE DAILY JOURNAL
without tampering with the truck menu that
earned him a best new chef mention from
Food and Wine magazine earlier this year.
“They get bored,” Kate Krader, the maga-
zine’s restaurant editor, said of the trucks-and-
bricks business model. “They keep having
ideas and keep wanting to test them out. He’s
flexing new muscles.”
Greg Drescher, the Culinary Institute of
America’s executive director of strategic ini-
tiatives, invited Choi (he’s a CIA grad) to
cook at a conference last year that focused on
the fast-growing street food culture. Trucks,
he said, are a way to establish brands quickly
and build communities of fans with fewer
costs.
Feedback from the hungry is instant and
welcome, but mobile operators can face
unique logistical problems. Some, including
The Taco Truck and Kogi, tweet locations
daily as they search for spots that won’t result
in fines. Health rules differ from town to town
and often require off-road commissary
kitchens that add to expenses.

A little fat makes a difference on the grill
By Jim Romanoff
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
A smoky grill is a great way to add
loads of flavor to food without added
fat. But it comes with some risk.
The high and dry heat of this favorite
backyard cooking method can suck the
moisture (and flavor) from your dinner
faster than you can say shoe leather.
This is especially true when cooking
lower-in-fat meats such as boneless,
skinless chicken breasts and pork or
beef tenderloin, which have less flavor
to begin with.
Marinades and flavored brines, which
pump moisture into meats, can definite-
ly help in the battle against dryness. But
care still needs to be taken not to over-
cook.
An easier option is to go for a protein
that’s a bit less lean, such as boneless,
skinless chicken thighs, which are fla-
vorful, economical and cook quickly.
True, chicken thighs are somewhat
fattier than the breasts — about 7 grams
per 3-ounce cooked portion. But that fat
brings extra flavor and moisture that
chicken breasts lack.
That extra fat also means your recipe
will be harder to mess up, even with
fast, high-heat cooking. Unlike with
chicken breasts, it’s difficult to end up
with a flavorless, overcooked, dry
chicken thighs.
For this recipe, chicken thighs get a
double dose of intense flavor from a
tangy, apple cider vinegar and herb-
WEEKEND JOURNAL
based marinade, plus a blast of hard-
wood smoke on the grill.
By placing either a pierced foil pack-
et of damp wood chips or a smoker box
directly on the heat source, it’s easy to
use a gas grill to add a pleasant smoked
flavor to foods. If you like, prepare this
recipe on a charcoal fire and scatter the
dampened wood chips directly on the
coals.
CIDER VINEGAR
AND HERB MARINATED
GRILLED CHICKEN THIGHS
Start to finish: 1 hour 10 minutes (40
minutes active)
Servings: 6
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup chopped shallot (about 2
medium)
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
3 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon
3 cloves garlic, chopped
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken
thighs, trimmed of fat
1 cup wood chips for smoking, such
as apple, oak or hickory
In a medium bowl, whisk together the
vinegar, oil and salt. Stir in the shallots,
parsley, tarragon and garlic. Add the
chicken and turn to coat. Cover and
marinate, in the refrigerator, for at least
30 minutes or up to 4 hours.
Meanwhile, soak wood chips in a
bowl of water for at least 20 minutes.
Friday • Aug. 6, 2010 21
Fold a 12-by-24-inch piece of heavy-
duty foil in half to create a 12-by-12-
inch double-thick piece. Drain the
soaked wood chips thoroughly and
transfer to the center of the foil. Create
a packet by folding two ends of the foil
over the wood chips and then folding
the open ends to seal them. Using a
skewer or the tip of a sharp knife, poke
several holes in one side of the packet
Place the packet of soaked wood
chips, pierced-side up, under the grill
rack and on top of the burners of a gas
grill. Light the grill and turn the heat to
high. Close the lid and heat until the
chips smell smoky and smoke begins to
billow from under the lid, about 10
minutes (the packet may temporarily
catch fire).
To oil the grill grates, oil a folded
paper towel, hold it with tongs and rub
it over the grates.
Transfer the chicken to the grill,
allowing any excess marinade to drip
back into the bowl. Discard the mari-
nade. Grill the chicken, turning once,
until cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes per
side. Serve immediately or chill, cov-
ered in the refrigerator, and serve cold
later.

cliche that the bad guys always have crazy
amounts of automatic weaponry but still
manage to miss our heroes, even when fir-
ing from a helicopter. There’s also an
homage to John Woo that takes place in a
glassed-off conference room with docu-
ments and bullets and bodies flying in art-
ful slow-motion; again, because it’s chore-
ographed so well and not played cartoon-
ishly, it’s more effective.
The comedy similarly has a deadpan
tone; it’s self-aware but not tongue-in-
cheek. This is not over the top like a
“Scary Movie” parody, and that makes it
more appealing, too. The tossed-off pop
culture references feel naturally like a
part of the fabric. Like the previous
movies Ferrell has collaborated on with

Burgundy,” “Talladega Nights: The
Ballad of Ricky Bobby” and (with lesser
success) “Step Brothers,” “The Other

Grade:
Guys” comes from a realistic, often
understated place, which makes the wild
moments pop out that much more.
(Chris Henchy co-wrote the script, but
Ferrell obviously had lots of room to
improvise.)
Ferrell stars as Allen Gamble, a New
York police detective with the demeanor
(and wardrobe) of an accountant. He’d
rather solve crimes from the comfort and
a plodding narration lacking in much
wit or spark.
When Byers does offer up the rare
set piece, such as an ill-fated boat trip
off the western coast of Mexico or a
disastrous dinner party hosted by the
clueless widow of Planet X’s original
pursuer, the book briefly gets more
entertaining and vibrant; you’ll find
yourself wishing for more of it.

to support his colleagues with some
hearty words of encouragement.
Wahlberg plays his partner, Terry Hoitz,
who used to be out on the streets and is
itching to get back, but is stuck in the
office with Allen because of an acciden-
tal shooting. (There’s a flashback to it,
and if you’re a Red Sox fan, you’ll enjoy
it.)
The city’s hotshot detectives (Samuel
L. Jackson and Dwayne Johnson, also
toying with their larger-than-life person-
ae) dominate by solving the most high-
profile cases. But Allen and Terry stum-
ble across something that looks shady
involving corporate financial guru David
Ershon (Steve Coogan), a sort of British
version of Bernie Madoff. Coogan adds
his own style of dry humor to the mix
and is among a strong supporting cast
that includes Michael Keaton, Rob
Riggle and Eva Mendes.
And speaking of Mendes, she’s crucial
to a running joke that, surprisingly,
works the whole time. We won’t say
much more about it, though. You should
really meet and get to know these guys
for yourself.
about astronomy he tends to dwell on
boring details — the mechanics of tel-
escopes, the mathematics of calculat-
ing planetary mass. Upon finishing the
novel, it’s difficult to answer what
should have been a few of the book’s
chief concerns: Why did Clyde
Tombaugh care so much about astrono-
my? Why was the search for a ninth
planet so important at that point in his-
tory?
Seems like there’d be a great book in
those questions. Unfortunately,
“Percival’s Planet” isn’t really it.

of an elevated viaduct in Burlingame.
Design option “B” includes aerial, trench
and tunnel designs for parts of the segment,
including the possibility of a covered trench in
downtown San Mateo that would replace an
existing street.
Option “B” also includes an open trench
from the Millbrae Caltrain station through
Burlingame and downtown San Mateo. An
open trench option is also being considered for
Atherton.
Bored tunnels and cut-and-cover trenches,
however, are not part of the final alternatives
for Burlingame, a decision that does not sit
well with city leaders.
“We are opposed to an aerial structure,” said
Burlingame Vice Mayor Terry Nagel, who
spoke during 90 minutes of public comment at
the meeting. “We are hoping a cut-and-cover
alternative is still available to us.”
Burlingame Councilman Michael
Brownrigg also attended the meeting and blast-
ed the authority for considering the construc-
tion of an aerial viaduct through the city.
“I don’t believe President Obama wants to
create blight,” Brownrigg said about the aerial
design option. He was also critical of the
authority for building the project without
knowing who will run it.
The authority has indicated it will seek pri-
vate investment after construction starts on the
project.
Burlingame residents have expressed con-
cern about a viaduct dividing the city and its
impact to the Burlingame Caltrain station and a
grove of eucalyptus trees that line the track
adjacent to the high school.
Meanwhile, the authority submitted four
separate federal grant applications today to
help jump-start construction on parts of the
project, including the San Francisco to San
Jose segment of the line. The authority is seek-
ing $1 billion from the U.S. Department of
Transportation to build a new station at
Millbrae and to electrify the Caltrain line in its
funding request.
The rail authority is planning a route with
electrified bullet trains traveling from Los
Angeles to San Francisco and has been criti-
cized for speedily getting the project shovel-
ready to secure more federal funding. The proj-
ect was awarded $2.5 billion in federal funding
in May and state voters approved a nearly $10
billion bond in a November 2008 election to
build the project. The estimated cost is expect-
ed to be more than $40 billion, although, crit-
ics say that number could double.
In San Mateo, the city has spent years devel-
oping its transit-corridor plan and has indicated
tracks must be buried through downtown.
Support is high for the project with the
underground option, said San Mateo
Councilman David Lim.
“Support for an aerial structure drops to
zero,” Lim told the authority’s board of direc-
tors.
More than 30 people addressed the board on
Doty’s presentation.
The meeting opened with 90 minutes of pub-
lic comment that included state Assemblyman
Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo, criticizing the Bay
Area Council’s Jim Wunderman for calling
members of the Peninsula Cities Consortium
“obstructionist” in a letter sent out earlier this
week.
The consortium is made up of city coun-
cilmembers from Burlingame, Belmont,
Atherton, Menlo Park and Palo Alto. Atherton,
Menlo Park and Palo Alto have sued the
authority in an effort to force the reconsidera-
tion of taking the train over the Altamont Pass
as opposed to the Pacheco Pass, the authority’s
preferred route.
Wunderman also addressed the board and
said detractors on the Peninsula jeopardize the
whole project.
Belmont Mayor Christine Wozniak urged the
board to reconsider placing the tracks through
the city underground.
Caltrain runs on an elevated berm through
Belmont, which Wozniak called unpopular.
Wozniak is concerned of the potential impacts
to Ralston Avenue, Old County Road and El
Camino Real where the city intends to one day
redevelop.
“Keep the tunneling option in Belmont,”
Wozniak urged the board.
San Carlos Councilman Omar Ahmad
praised the safety of grade separations but said
the authority’s local outreach effort has failed.
Ahmad suggested the authority fire the pub-
lic relations firm that provides outreach to
Peninsula residents on rail issues.
“You should consider a change,” Ahmad
said.
He also offered support for phased construc-
tion of the project on the Peninsula, which
would give the authority more time to secure
federal grants for constructing the line.
Board Chairman Curt Pringle, the mayor of
Anaheim, reminded attendees of the meeting
that the authority will continue to seek federal
grants every year and that the environmental
process must be completed before any money
will be spent on construction.
“We have to consider all options. Asking for
federal money doesn’t eliminate any alterna-
tives,” Pringle said.
A modification to option “B” includes an
open trench through Redwood City, Palo Alto,
Mountain View and south to Sunnyvale.
The California High-Speed Rail Authority
board conducts monthly meetings at various
locations across the state. The board may make
a decision on the two alternatives at its next
meeting if the Peninsula Rail Program makes a
recommendation on the two options.

Friday, Aug. 6, 2010
In order to advance a special interest in the year ahead, you
might have to make several significant changes in your life.
Although the moves you make are likely to be good, they still
may need plenty of time to work.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) - Even if you know you can do some-
thing that would publicly embarrass an annoying individual,
restrain yourself. This person would try to get even later on
down the line.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) - It would be far better not to use
anything belonging to another family member without his/her
permission. If what you borrow is lost or broken, the sparks
would fly in all directions.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) - If a disagreement should arise
between you and your mate while out in public, wait until
you are alone to air it out. Doing so in front of others would
add fuel to the fire in the way of further embarrassment and
humiliation.
However, those little differences over trivial things can easily
generate an angry exchange if you’re not careful.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) - Upon occasion we all can
treat life more indifferently than we should. If you’re not care-
ful, playing things too loose could get carried to extremes,
and would cause you to miss something important.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) - Having strong desires for
personal gain could cause you to take some chances or risks
that you normally wouldn’t. Keep in mind all the reasons why
a long shot is so precarious and dangerous.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) - It’s one of those days when the
people you try to please the most are likely to be the least
appreciative of your gestures. You can’t be all things to all
people, so don’t even try.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) - When racing around town,
keep your eye on your fellow athletes. One could give you a
run you never intended to take, with both of you fighting for
the same space.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) - Strive to be a positive thinker,
or you will adopt a negative attitude and generate all types
of ways and means to fulfill your belief that life is a bummer.
You’ll have no one to blame but yourself.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) - Unless you are careful,
a gossipy friend will probe into your affairs in order to unearth
something you want kept secret. Be careful this skillful inves-
tigator doesn’t catch you off-guard.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) - You and your mate
are likely to be in accord when it comes to major issues.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) - Be careful not to jump to con-
clusions and get into a squabble with another who is just as
off-course as you. To rectify any misunderstanding you must
maintain your composure.
Previous
CANCER (June 21-July 22) - Appropriate self-esteem is
essential, as you know, but not to the point of thinking you Sudoku
are superior to everybody else. It usually takes a large dose of
humility to keep us thinking straight. answers

Army flies flood relief missions in Pakistan
By Sherin Zada
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KALAM, Pakistan — U.S. Army
choppers flew their first relief mis-
sions in Pakistan’s flood-ravaged
northwest Thursday, airlifting hun-
dreds of stranded people to safety
from a devastated tourist town and
distributing emergency aid.
In the country’s south, authorities
began evacuating half-a-million
people as the worst monsoon rains
in decades threatened new destruc-
tion.
The floods have already killed an
estimated 1,500 people over the past
week, most in the northwest, the
center of Pakistan’s fight against al-
Qaida and the Taliban. An estimated
4.2 million Pakistanis have been
affected, including many in eastern
Punjab province, which has seen
numerous villages swallowed by
rising water in recent days.
The flooding is one of several
crises that has hit Pakistan since
mid-July, including a suicide bomb-
ing in the northwest city of
Peshawar, a plane crash that killed
152 people in the capital, and a
spurt of politically motivated

waters in Sanawa,a town located in the Muzaffar Ghar district of Pakistan’s
Punjab province.
killings that have left dozens dead in
the southern city of Karachi.
Foreign governments and aid
agencies have stepped into help the
beleaguered government. It has
been toughest in the northwest,
which has not seen such flooding
since 1929, and where many bridges

and roads are washed out.
Four U.S. Chinook helicopters
landed in the resort town of Kalam
in the Swat Valley, which has been
cut off for more than a week,
according to an Associated Press
reporter there. They flew hundreds
of people — many of them vaca-
tioning there — to safer areas lower
down, he said. The northwest valley
is a former Pakistani Taliban strong-
hold.
A U.S. Embassy spokesman said
800 people were evacuated and
relief goods distributed.
The United States is unpopular in
Pakistan, and Washington will be
hoping the relief missions will help
improve its image, however margin-
ally. But the mission could draw
criticism from nationalist politi-
cians and others in Pakistan who are
hostile to the idea of American
boots on the ground, even if they are
helping after a disaster.
Islamist groups have staged their
own relief efforts in the northwest.
One, Falah-e-Insaniat, is a charity
with alleged ties to Lashkar-e-
Taiba, the militant group accused in
the 2008 attacks in Mumbai, India
that killed 166 people.
The U.S. military carried out larg-
er operations in the aftermath of the
2005 Kashmir earthquake, as it did
in predominantly Muslim Indonesia
after the 2004 tsunami. Those mis-
sions went smoothly and were cred-
ited with boosting Washington’s
reputation there.

Singer Wyclef files to
run for Haiti’s presidency
PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti —
Singer Wyclef Jean submitted the
paperwork Thursday to run for pres-
ident of Haiti,
formally thrust-
ing himself into
what is expected
to be a highly
competitive race
and ending years
of speculation
about his politi-
Wyclef Jean cal ambitions.
Several hun-
dred supporters of the hip hop artist-
turned-politician cheered as he
arrived by motorcade in a dark suit
and tie at an electoral office in this
capital city still largely in ruins from
the devastating Jan. 12 earthquake.
Jean, who was born in Haiti but
raised in Brooklyn, N.Y., stood on
top of an SUV and bowed to the
crowd.
“It’s a moment in time and in his-
tory,” Jean, who was accompanied
by his wife and daughter, told The
Associated Press as he went to hand
in his candidacy papers, 10 minutes
before the office closed. “It’s very
emotional.”

MURDER
Continued from page 1
nis courts, was pronounced dead at
the scene, police said. A motive is
still unknown.
Kirk Black, spokesman for the
San Mateo Union High School
District, said the victim was appar-
ently stabbed near the on-campus
tennis courts. The tennis courts abut
a public skate park and bicycle path
that is a gathering place for youth.
The body was found between the
tennis courts and soccer field, said
Millbrae police Officer Jim Aboud.
Witnesses were being interviewed
Thursday morning.
Police are looking for two sus-
pects. The first is an 18- or 19-year-
old Samoan man, 6 feet 2 inches
tall, about 130 pounds. He was
wearing a black-hooded sweatshirt,
a white T-shirt, black shorts and
low-top shoes. The second suspect
is described as a Pacific Islander
between 22 and 23 years old, 6 feet
1 inch tall, 180 pounds with a mus-
cular build and a black beard. He
was wearing a beanie, vest and a
black hooded sweatshirt with black
pants, basketball shoes and carrying
a backpack.
The incident is not affecting the
school, which is out for the summer.
Classes are scheduled to resume
Aug. 16.
Evidence was also found in front
of the New Vision United Methodist
Church, located at 450 Chadbourne
Ave., a block away from the school.
This is the first homicide in
Millbrae since 27-year-old Jack Chu
was killed in 2008. The murder
ended up being in Burlingame’s
jurisdiction since Chu was found
slumped in a car in a Burlingame
neighborhood north of Broadway.
Police quickly connected the car in
which Chu was found with an early-
morning shooting reported July 8 in
Millbrae. Teyseer “Terry” Zaid
Najdawi, who is accused of fatally
shooting Chu, was found incompe-
tent to stand trial on May 15, 2009.
The last official Millbrae murder
occurred in 2006 when 54-year-old
Joseph George Cua killed Fernand
and Suzanne Wagner, a 78-year-old
investor and his 68-year-old part-
time hairstylist wife. In 2008, Cua
was convicted of two counts first-
degree murder and the special alle-
gation of committing multiple mur-
ders which came with a sentence of
life without parole.
Anyone with information is
encouraged to call the Millbrae
Police Department at 259-2300.
