County begins budget hearings

Health advocates protest cuts;Officials:We just dont have a choice
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF SCOTT LENHART/DAILY JOURNAL
Members of the California Nurses Association protested potential cuts at the courthouse square in Redwood City as the Board of Supervisors began hearings for the county budget.
As county ofcials wrestle with nalizing a $1.69 billion budget that includes $129 million in reductions, almost nothing is safe from the chopping block. Even the Health System, which received more than $4 million extra after preliminary budget hearings in March, included elimination of programs for youth. Honestly, we just dont have a choice. We have to cut some childrens services, said Jean Fraser, director of
the Health System, in explaining to the Board of Supervisors yesterday why hundreds of at-risk children no longer receive behavioral health services in her budget. Last year, the system cut $9 million, nearly all from adult services, and this scal years reductions cant be limited solely to them again, Fraser said. Instead, Fraser asked the board for $5.7 million more in general funds in addition to the $91.2 allotted in large part for information technology to establish e-health records. Doing so qualies the county for federal incentive pay-
ments and readies it for health care reform in 2014. The project will cost $5 million and Fraser expects $2.5 million from the federal government. If the county ponies up the $1.5 million, the system still needs to nd another $1 million. Although Supervisor Don Horsley joked that he doesnt trust IT projects, he conceded it seems like its probably worthwhile to do it. Board President Carole Groom suggested nding the money from other

The slated demolition of portions of a small native garden and the building next to it to make room for a parking lot spawned a lawsuit from College of San Mateo students and employees demanding a full environmental impact report be prepared. The building, known as Building 20, is home to programs like horticulture and oristry. Next door is a small garden with a variety of plants and three greenhouses. Most could be demolished as part of a larger bond-funded construction plan

THAT SCRAMBLED WORD GAME
by David L. Hoyt and Jeff Knurek
In 1834, Cyrus Hall McCormick received a patent for his reaping machine. In 1932, heavyweight Max Schmeling lost a title ght rematch in New York by decision to Jack Sharkey, prompting Schmelings manager, Joe Jacobs, to exclaim: We was robbed! In 1948, the Republican national convention opened in Philadelphia. (The delegates ended up choosing Thomas E. Dewey to be their presidential nominee.) In 1963, Cardinal Giovanni Battista Montini was chosen to succeed the late Pope John XXIII; the new pope took the name Paul VI. In 1964, civil rights workers Michael H. Schwerner, Andrew Goodman and James E. Chaney were murdered in Philadelphia, Miss.; their bodies were found buried in an earthen dam six weeks later. In 1970, former Indonesian President Sukarno died at 69. In 1981, ve members of a climbing party fell to their deaths while scaling Mount Hood in Oregon. In 1982, a jury in Washington D.C. found John Hinckley Jr. not guilty by reason of insanity in the shootings of President Ronald Reagan and three other men. In 1989, a sharply divided Supreme Court ruled that burning the American ag as a form of political protest was protected by the First Amendment. In 2005, 41 years to the day after three civil rights workers were beaten and shot to death, Edgar Ray Killen, an 80-yearold former Ku Klux Klansman, was found guilty of manslaughter in a Mississippi court. (Killen was sentenced to 60 years in prison.) Ten years ago: A federal grand jury in Alexandria, Va., indicted 13 Saudis and a Lebanese in absentia for the 1996 bombing of the Khobar Towers in Saudi Arabia that killed 19 American servicemen.

Rural Maine couple lives in two shipping containers
ELLSWORTH, Maine A rural Maine couple calls home a pair of former shipping containers bought online for $1,500. Trevor Seip and Jennifer Sansosti have spent a year modifying the containers on their 63-acre property in Ellsworth, where they hope to eventually build a conventional home. Each container measures 20 feet long, 8 feet high and 8 feet wide. One is insulated, plumbed and wired. It boasts a bed and table that fold against the wall, a sink, a camp stove, a propane heater, a shower and a composting toilet. The other has a closet and a folding futon. Sansosti tells the Bangor Daily News in Mondays editions every inch of the 160 square feet of oor space was used. Seip lived in Stroudsburg, Pa. Sansosti is from New York City.

He says the only other known copy of the map is in the Pioneer Museum in Hot Springs. ernment the owner of the logo and the clubs name, Assistant U.S. Attorney Steven Welk said. The prosecutions request marked the rst time in the U.S. the government has sought control of a gangs identity via its logo through a court order. The effort is part of a 2008 racketeering indictment that accused gang members of murder, drug trafcking and torture. More than 100 people faced charges in state and federal courts, and dozens have pleaded guilty to crimes ranging from drug possession to conspiracy. Prosecutors argued the logo should be forfeited because the trademarks were acquired and maintained by former Mongol president Ruben Doc Cavazos while the club was involved in criminal activity. Cavazos has pleaded guilty to racketeering conspiracy and is expected to be sentenced later this year. During his tenure as national president, Cavazos personally controlled the distribution and use of the registered marks, also with the knowledge and consent of the gang membership, prosecutors wrote in court documents led last week. However, attorney George Steele, who represents the Mongols club, said a person cannot own a collective membership insignia.

ate an on-campus business. Ultimately, the grand jury found that operating a private athletic club on campus was consistent with other college district enterprise activities, and that the private use of public facilities on a fee basis is a widespread and generally accepted practice in San Mateo County. The report also found the bond language to be vague, allowing for broad interpretation. In addition, it found the district needed clearer communication about the use of funds before approved projects. The report also came with a handful of recommendations which the boards draft response addresses. In the proposed response for the board, the district agrees clear communication is necessary and believes it has met this requirement through regular updates at meetings of the Board of Trustees and oversight committee along with published updates on its website. In addition, the board agrees timely reports should be released adding annual reports are made public normally around January. A detailed report and specic list of remaining projects are also available online. Lastly, the draft calls for the district to identify the oversight committee members by their term and afliation in the meeting minutes by the Aug. 4 meeting. The board meets 6 p.m. Wednesday, June 22 at the District Ofce Board Room, 3401 CSM Drive, San Mateo.

County to ratify local hire agreement

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
The Board of Supervisors Tuesday will ratify its end of an agreement with the city and county of San Francisco allowing an equal number of employees from the two jurisdictions to work for public works contractors otherwise limited by a newly enacted local hire policy. The ratification formalizes an understanding reached between the two counties earlier this month and ends months of debate over San Franciscos controversial policy. The city and county of San Francisco is expected to ratify its memorandum of understanding at the June 14 Board of Supervisors meeting. The understanding has no immediate fis-
cal impact on San Mateo Countys coffers but could provide more employment opportunities for residents in the future. The San Francisco ordinance, which became effective this year after then-mayor Gavin Newsom declined to sign or veto the proposal, mandates the hiring of local labor on city-funded construction projects in phases, beginning with 20 percent this year and ramping up to 50 percent within seven years. Proponents, like San Francisco Supervisor John Avalos, the author, said current labor agreements for sites outside San Francisco proper would protect them from the policy. However, San Mateo County officials worried that a 70-mile ratio caveat would impede work on the Hetch Hetchy pipeline
or San Francisco International Airport. Assemblyman Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo, picked up the battle and proposed statewide limitation on local hire policy projects that receive state money. The agreement between San Mateo and San Francisco counties was reached before a final vote on Hills bill. The agreement allows contractors to meet the local hire mandate by employing San Mateo County residents instead. Contractors can also apply for waivers from the percentage requirements if they sponsor apprentices from local programs. The Board of Supervisors meets 9 a.m. Tuesday, June 21 in Board Chambers, 400 County Government Center, Redwood City.

PG&E to pay $26M fine for Sacramento-area blast

By Adam Weintraub
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO Pacific Gas & Electric Co. has agreed to pay $26 million in penalties after acknowledging safety violations in a fatal natural gas explosion that destroyed one home and damaged several others in a Sacramento suburb on Christmas Eve 2008. The California Public Utilities Commission announced the proposed resolution Monday. If approved by the full com-
mission, it would be the largest safety-related fine assessed by the PUC in more than 10 years. The explosion killed 72-year-old Wilbert Bill Paana and injured five others in Rancho Cordova. Investigators found PG&E installed incorrect pipe and was slow responding to a leak report. PG&E did not immediately return a call seeking comment. It has faced intense scrutiny over the 2008 blast and another in 2010 that killed eight people in San Pablo.

Stolen dog returned to owner, dognapper arrested

A South San Francisco dognapping that occurred Friday morning appears to have been a case of mistaken identity, a police sergeant said Monday morning. Genesis Sicat, 47, of South San Francisco, is suspected of forcibly taking a womans brown Chihuahua and Pomeranian mix as she was walking on Eucalyptus Avenue at about 11:15 a.m., South San Francisco police Sgt. Joni Lee said. Sicat had apparently lost a dog that was similar in appearance about a year ago and was convinced the victims pet was his, Lee said. He allegedly took the dog off its leash and pushed the woman several times, then ran away with the animal in the 800 block of Second Lane, police said. Police went to Sicats home on Saturday and arrested him on suspicion of robbery and battery, Lee said. The dog was returned to its owner, who had paperwork proving she had adopted the animal from a local shelter.

Suspect in Giants fan beating to be held 10 months

LOS ANGELES The main suspect in the brutal beating of a San Francisco Giants fan outside Dodger Stadium was sent back to prison Monday for 10 months for a parole violation involving access to a gun. Giovanni Ramirez, 31, has been in custody since May 22, when police arrested him in connection with the attack on Bryan Stow then held him on the parole issue. No evidence was presented about the attack on Stow at Mondays closed hearing. Ramirez has not been charged in the beating, and police have been in no hurry to present a case to prosecutors while he is in jail on the weapons case. Typically when a suspect is arrested, police must present their case to prosecutors within two working days. Suspects can be held longer if the case involves suspected parole violations. Investigators have said they found a handgun in a laundry basket at the house where Ramirez was staying. A court commissioner found Monday there was cause to believe the convicted felon had violated his parole by having access to a weapon. That charge was amended from an initial allegation of being a felon in possession of a rearm. Ramirezs parole attorney said he would appeal the nding.

High court bars mass sex bias case versus Wal-Mart

City agrees to parking lot swap

By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
WASHINGTON The Supreme Court blocked the largest sex-discrimination lawsuit in U.S. history on Monday, siding with Wal-Mart and against up to 1.6 million female workers in a decision that makes it harder to mount large-scale bias claims against the nations other huge companies, too. The justices all agreed that the lawsuit against Wal-Mart Stores Inc. could not proceed as a class action in its current form, reversing a decision by the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco. By a 5-4 vote along ideological lines, the court also said there were too many women in too many jobs at Wal-Mart to wrap into one lawsuit. Because respondents provide no convincing proof of a companywide discriminatory pay and promotion policy, we have concluded that they have not established the existence of any common question, Justice Antonin Scalia said in his majority opinion. Theodore Boutrous Jr., Wal-Marts lawyer, said the decision also would affect pending class-action claims against Costco and others.
Feds halt private funds to study pipeline safety

A proposal to swap land between the city of Burlingame and St. Catherine of Siena Church, which raised concerns by those who live and work around the Primrose Road lot, was approved by the City Council Monday. Under the proposal, the city would acquire a 75 foot by 150 foot property at 161 Highland Ave., adjacent to city parking lot N. St. Catherine of Siena Church would acquire a 67.5 foot by 155.25 foot portion of parking lot G, located on Primrose Road between Howard and Bayswater avenues, adjacent to the property of the church, which plans to build a multi-purpose facility. Noting a net gain of downtown parking and more space in an area that could be developed for multi-use residential space, the council voted 4-0-1, with Councilwoman Cathy Baylock recusing herself, to move forward with the possible swap. The vote gives the city 10 days to work with St. Catherines to nalize the purchase. The option to purchase the Highlands Avenue parcel expires after
the rst week of July. Councilman Michael Brownrigg explained the council acknowledges the potential burden created for those who may need to walk farther to use amenities in that area now. When we can help schools its good for us to do so. And this, more than anything, helps a school become more robust, he said, adding its not a perfect switch but has a better benefit for Burlingame. Councilwoman Ann Keighran agreed, and added decisions need to be made to promote the downtown as a whole rather than support one area. The parking spaces, yes, will be moved a little farther but it also down the road allows us to do development to expand business, she said. The agreement will allow the church to build a multi-purpose facility, according to a staff report written by Planning Manager Maureen Brooks. No plans have been submitted thus far and St. Catherines will need to do a full environmental review before building on the site. Approving the land swap comes with no guarantees about that process,
said City Attorney Gus Guinan. Conversations to generate ideas began in 2009. St. Catherines applied for entitlements to make additions to the parish hall on Park Road. During the process, the parish hall was found to have historical signicance which would be impacted by the project. Then other ideas like building over the school playground, purchasing air rights over Lot G and building an elevated gym or buying all of Lot G were considered but not approved by the city. For the city, the switch could create a net gain in parking spaces in a different part of downtown. In addition, Lot N is zoned for residential with the possibility of building up to 55 feet without a special permit. Recently, the city put out a request for developer proposals on just such lots. The larger square footage could be more attractive to a private developer. Should the swap go through, St. Catherines representatives were amenable to allowing the public access to the parking for at least one year. Also, the city will study creating more shortterm spots in the lot.
SAN FRANCISCO Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood recently moved to prevent industry groups from funding federal safety studies of onshore pipelines following an investigation by Hearst Newspapers that revealed the practice. The investigation published Sunday found that over the last decade, two-thirds of the 174 safety studies of such pipelines initiated by the federal Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration received significant funding from pipeline operators or industry-controlled organizations. LaHoods decision overturns a Bush-era rule that required at least half the funding for federal pipeline safety research to come from outside sources, in most cases.
City approves business assessment

First Spare the Air Day called for Tuesday
The rst Spare the Air day of the season has been called for Tuesday throughout the Bay Area, an air district spokeswoman said. The Bay Area Air Quality Management District, or BAAQMD, issues Spare the Air days when air quality is unhealthy often coinciding with high temperatures and high pollution levels, BAAQMD spokeswoman Kristine Roselius said. The rst summer Spare the Air day in 2010 was called in August, much later than this seasons rst poor air quality day, which falls on the st day of summer, Roselius said. Forecasts show Tuesdays air quality will be unhealthy and people should try to avoid driving to reduce smog levels. People with respiratory problems, young children and the elderly should take extra precaution to avoid excessive exposure to smoggy air.
The San Mateo City Council voted last night to continue charging downtown businesses an annual fee for marketing and putting on community events such as the annual Wine Walk but not before offering up a good dose of criticism to the downtown groups leader. The council approved the Downtown Business Improvement Area (DBIA) assessment that charges business owners anywhere from $66.55 annually to $1,330.88 annually depending on gross receipts or the size of the business. It did not increase the assessment this year, however, as it has in years past. The assessment will earn the Downtown San Mateo Association about $120,000 next year but that number could climb as high as $162,000, according to a staff report. The DSMA, however, cancelled this years Wine Walk after 13 years so that Executive Director Rob Edwards could work on establishing a Property-based and Business Improvement District (PBID) for the downtown area.
Edwards was asked last night whether he intended to conduct the Wine Walk or a comparable event next year with assessment money and whether he had a good relationship with the San Mateo Area Chamber of Commerce or even city staff. The Wine Walk, which would have taken place next week, was cancelled primarily so Edwards can get the PBID approved by property owners downtown that would raise about $750,000 a year for the DSMA to help beautify downtown. Other factors also led to the Wine Walks cancellation, Edwards said, but his primary mission is getting the PBID formed. The Wine Walk also raised about $25,000 for other downtown programs during the holidays but the city is footing that bill this year with the events cancellation. Councilman David Lim offered hesitancy in approving the DBIA considering Edwards preoccupation with establishing another assessment for downtown. I want to make sure businesses are getting their bang for the buck, Lim said. Edwards said work needed to establish
the PBID prevented him from putting together the Wine Walk this year. Lim questioned Edwards as to what his relationships were with the chamber and city staff. Quite frankly, I havent heard very good things, Lim said. Mayor Jack Matthews said the Wine Walk was about more than just raising the $25,000 for other programs, it is also a good tool to getting people to come downtown. I think it was a good event, Matthews said. And Councilman John Lee asked Edwards whether he was opposed to having events downtown that serve alcohol. Edwards said one bad alcohol-related incident at the Wine Walk could derail 10 years of marketing efforts for downtown. I heard nothing but raves about our Wine Walk, Lee said. The $120,000 the DBIA raises goes toward promoting downtown. Edwards said, however, the DSMA will no longer market downtown through print advertising as it has in years past but rather through other avenues such as Facebook.

Obama yet to act on gun safety

By Erica Werner
WASHINGTON More than ve months after Rep. Gabrielle Giffords was shot in the head, the White House has yet to take any new steps on gun violence, even though thats what President Barack Obama called for in the wake of the shooting. The silence from the administration is drawing criticism from gun control activists and even some of Obamas Democratic allies. Sen. Frank Lautenberg, D-N.J., told the president in a letter last week that the administration has not shown the leadership to combat gun violence. Its in keeping with Obamas general stance on gun issues since taking ofce: Outspoken earlier in his political career in favor of tougher gun measures, hes treaded careful-
ly since becoming president, almost never raising the topic except when asked and offering, at most, tepid support for legislation he once embraced, such as re-enacting a ban on assault weapons. White House spokesman Eric Schultz said in a statement that the Justice Department is consulting with the key stakeholders to identify common-sense measures that would improve American safety and security while fully respecting Second Amendment rights. Schultz declined to comment beyond that, but whatever the administration produces is likely to fall well short of the steps activists would like to see, such as legislation banning the kind of high-capacity ammunition clips used in the Giffords shooting. Any signicant change of that kind would require legislation, but with Congress hostile toward any gun-control bills, the
administration sees that avenue as closed. A government ofcial involved in the talks said that suggestions under consideration include ways to improve the background check system dealers use to avoid selling guns to criminals, which activists say is ineffective and riddled with loopholes. The ofcial spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the private deliberations. Some improvements could be made administratively, such as by providing states clearer guidelines on how to get criminal information to the federal government for the background check database. Although such steps are not nearly as bold as activist groups, including the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, would like to see, they still hope to see something and soon.

CHICAGO Republicans hope voters fears about jobs and the economy will help them reclaim a handful of Mountain West and Southern states that were crucial to Barack Obamas 2008 presidential win. Obamas campaign appears just as determined to hold those states next year and force Republicans to spend precious resources defending places theyd like to consider safe. Every four years, political opera-
tives xate on the dozen or so states that always decide close presidential elections. This time, Obama hopes to play on as big an Electoral College map as possible, and his team insists it will compete for the rst time in traditionally solid Republican states like Georgia and Arizona. Republicans, conversely, want a compact map, hoping for wins in big, always-contested states such as Florida and Ohio, which were key to George W. Bushs victories in 2000 and 2004.
WASHINGTON President Barack Obama will announce the critical next steps in Americas decade-long war in Afghanistan on Wednesday, outlining both a plan to start bringing thousands of U.S. troops home next month and a broader withdrawal blueprint aimed at giving Afghans control of their own security in 2014. But even as Obama nalizes those plans, there are divisions in his administration, with military leaders favoring only a gradual reduction in
Administration officials say Obama is still working through the details on how many troops will start leaving Afghanistan in July, his selfimposed deadline for beginning the drawdown. He is considering a range of options presented to him last week by Gen. David Petraeus, the top U.S. and NATO commander in Afghanistan. Hes nalizing his decision. Hes reviewing his options, White House spokesman Jay Carney said Monday. Obama is expected to make

While much of the attention is focused on how many troops will leave Afghanistan next month, the more telling aspects of Obamas decision center on what happens after July, particularly how long the president plans to keep the 30,000 surge forces he sent in 2009 in the country.

Rare U.S.missile attacks kill 12 in Pakistan
PARACHINAR, Pakistan Suspected U.S. drones red missiles at a vehicle and a house in northwest Pakistan, killing 12 people Monday in a rare attack in an area where some of NATOs ercest enemies have reportedly traveled, Pakistani ofcials said. The rst attack in the Kurram tribal area hit a vehicle, killing ve people, said Noor Alam, a local government ofcial. As tribesmen rushed to the scene, the vehicle was struck again, killing two more people, he said. Minutes later, a suspected U.S. drone attacked a nearby house, killing ve people, Alam said. Seven of the 12 people killed in the attacks were Afghan militants whose bodies were taken across the border to be buried, Alam said.
Syria president vows reform

Tunisian ex-leader convicted in absentia

TUNIS, Tunisia Tunisias former ruler and his wife were convicted in absentia on embezzlement and other charges on Monday after $27 million ((euro) 18.97 million) in jewels and public funds were found in one of his palaces. Five months after being forced from power, Zine El Abidine Ben Ali and Leila Trabelsi were sentenced to 35 years each in prison and ned tens of millions of dollars in the rst of what is sure to be a long string of trials. However, the trial in some ways failed to live up to its billing. With the 74-year-old Ben Ali not present for his judgment, there was a sense of frustration among many.
BEIRUT Syrias president promised a national dialogue Monday to consider political reforms, but his vague overtures to a pro-democracy uprising fell at as protesters took to the streets shouting Liar! and demanding his ouster. In only his third public appearance since the revolt erupted in March, Bashar Assad returned to a now-familiar refrain: He blamed the unrest on saboteurs, offered modest potential reforms, but gave no sign hed move toward ending the Assad familys political domination. He clearly intends to try to ride out the wave of protests, showing the steely determination that has kept the Assads in power for 40 years. But the mobilized opposition appeared to be digging in as well, bracing for a showdown in one of the deadliest uprisings of the Arab Spring. We want only one thing: Toppling the regime! read one banner among marchers in several cities Monday.

himself as a secure and beloved leader intent on protecting his people. He likened some of the countrys troubles to a germ that must be fought off. He said a national dialogue would start soon and he was forming a committee to study constitutional amendments, including one that would open the way to forming political parties other than the ruling Baath Party. He acknowledged demands for reform were legitimate, but he rehashed allegations that saboteurs were exploiting the movement. A package of reforms was expected by September or the end of the year, he said. But along with his promises came a warning that his downfall could usher in chaos. We want the people to back to reforms but we must isolate true reformers from saboteurs, Assad said, speaking from a podium anked by six Syrian ags. He said the countrys economy might collapse unless the unrest ends, calling that the most dangerous thing we face in the coming period, a message aimed at his supporters in the business community.

Prison fight part of flawed budget debate

The Appeal-Democrat
Other voices
Brown said, in response to state prison ofcials complaints that they cant comply with the courts order without more money. The state will suffer. Yet it was Gov. Brown who just negotiated and signed a deal with the states prison guards union that provides costly raises and more. Here we see Brown in a nutshell. He is unwilling to make the tough choices he calls on everyone else to make. He rather goes for the easy choice of asking California taxpayers to hand over more of their hardearned cash. Republican legislators were right to call out Brown for such scare tactics, but they have a bit to answer for as well. Over the years, Republicans have been every bit as beholden to the guards union as Democrats, and Republican law-and-order politics have kept them from making sensible reforms that could reduce prison congestion.
ny Californian who wants to know what, fundamentally, is wrong with the way our state is governed need only look at the ongoing brouhaha over the states overcrowded prison system. For starters, the U.S. Supreme Court recently ruled that the state must signicantly reduce its state prison population because of cruel and unusual conditions. That, in itself, is a testament to years of failure by the states prison ofcials and legislators to deal with a core state responsibility. Now we see the Brown administration playing a crude form of politics with that decision. Gov. Brown has been stumping for a series of tax extensions for the September ballot necessary, he says, to close a budget gap currently estimated at $9 billion. If we dont get the taxes, we will have serious problems with our criminal justice system,
For example, the Assembly recently considered AB1017, which would have allowed prison sentences for marijuana-related offenses to be served in county or state facilities, not just state facilities, as is the case now. This would have reduced the state prison population for low-level non-violent people, yet only one Republican, Chris Norby of Fullerton, voted in favor. If both parties are unwilling to surgically reduce the prison population, then Californians might indeed face the broad release of prisoners that the courts ruling could require. Here we get back to the core problem. Neither party will do the right thing. The Democrats are beholden to unions and convinced that higher taxes are the answer to everything. Republicans dont want higher taxes, but their ideology makes it tough for them to consider alternatives to lock em up and throw away the key. At least none of us should wonder how the prison system became such a mess.
Budgetary beatdown
dont know if assemblymen Rich Gordon and Jerry Hill are better leaders than anybody else in Sacramento. Id like to think so; theyre ours, after all and neither one (so far) has proposed any hare-brained bills like bans on spanking or tanning beds just to appear busy and win re-election bids. What I do know is that these leaders can kick the butts of every other countys legislators. Think Im kidding? Do a quick Internet search for California budget and up pops what is currently my favorite photograph of Hill and Gordon. No, make that my favorite photograph of anybody in recent history. In the midst of a kerfufe over redevelopment agencies you know, the type of adult, civilized conversations in which ItalianAmericans are equated with television maa dramas and criminal insurance scams Gordon and Hill stepped up and stepped in to keep Assemblyman Don Wagner, R-Irvine, from having his words shoved back in his mouth by Assemblyman Warren Furutani, D-Gardena. Neither Wagner nor Furutani are Italian. I dont think Hill nor Gordon claim the lineage either. Perhaps thats what makes the righteous indignation and escalating tempers so much fun. No, actually, what makes the encounter entertaining is the image. The words in this space cant do justice to seeing Gordon standing behind Furutani with his hands squarely on the irate mans shoulders. Hill takes the front, creating a San Mateo County political sandwich for Furutani as Wagner looks on. The small American ag jutting from a desk in front of the exchange just adds to the all around warm and fuzzy feeling that my tax dollars are being well spent to keep the lights on in the Capitol. Go, Team San Mateo! Politics can be a blood sport, but frankly government bodies in other counties often put us to shame. The Ukrainian Parliament and the Japanese Parliaments alone would make for some hard-core cage ghting contenders. But here in the United States rarely do we have a punch thrown, a body shoved, a collection of words so offensive they could make a trucker blush. Constituents may accuse ofcials of not accomplishing too much but at least they do it with a smile and heavy layer of political correctness at least, until it comes to sexting and scandals. Then I cant say with certitude how any one leader will behave. What can be said, though, is that anybody picking teams for legislative dodgeball games or grudge matches after school er, make that committee meetings would do well to have Hill and Gordon in their corner. Likewise, constituents happy with either as their heavy had better pay special attention to pending redistricting. They wouldnt want to let these guys get away. Never again can someone say those in Sacramento refuse to ex a little muscle when necessary. Granted, this might not be the kind of brawn the majority mean, but something is better than nothing. And yes, the Legislature actually passing a budget by the deadline is certainly the big news of this years scal festivities. But the biggest highlight is Hill and Gordon showing that when you mess with Italian-Americans you mess with Furutani. And when you mess with Furutani you mess with San Mateo County. The six degrees of separation in that situation may make no sense, but then again little about the nickel-and-diming of the state budget ever really does. So if Hill and Gordon want to spice up the process with a little testosterone, so be it. I couldnt be prouder, aside, of course, if they and their peers actually sat down and penciled out a budget the governor wanted to sign.

Letters to the editor

Parents not doing their job
Editor, The editorial Thorough review of school policies in order published in the June 17 issue of the San Mateo Daily Journal is completely and totally off-base and misses the most important point. What the heck was the editorial staff of the Daily Journal thinking? It is the legal and moral responsibility of the parents of the children involved in the incident, not the teachers, not the city, county, school district or society as a whole, to teach their own children right from wrong, legal and not legal, proper behavior, manners and respect to others, including children of the opposite sex. Where are all the calls of the parents liability in all of this? It doesnt matter if these boys are new immigrants to this country. America is not a Third-World Country when it comes to a civilized society, rules of society, manners, respect, sex-education and criminal behavior. Besides the immigrant boys involved in this incident, maybe the parents of these boys should also receive sex education, criminal law regarding rape and other instructions on manners and respect. Both parents and the boys involved in this incident should be held legally responsible. Teachers and school employees are employed to instruct, teach and educate children from kindergarten to 12th grade (elementary school to high school). If these boys think it is OK to attack two girls, then it is the parents who arent doing their jobs right and not the teachers. Editorial staff, please get this important point correct. Mateo would even consider allowing food trucks, aka Roach Coaches into the city, especially when they will be taking business away from tax-paying businesses. Downtown restaurant owners pay taxes and rent for their business property and sales. The mobile food truck owners do not pay taxes nor do they pay rent, yet they park on city streets all day. Do they pay parking fees? No. Do they get cited for parking all day in time limited zones? No. This problem is growing rapidly in both San Bruno and Millbrae. The mobile taco trucks are located on El Camino Real parked in these cities directly adjacent to restaurants and other food vending properties, All of whom pay property, business and sales taxes. These taxes are what help the cities operate. Mobile food trucks do not pay anything but a business use tax (license). These mobile food trucks do not have rest rooms or the proper washing facilities that meet health department regulations for employees. The vehicles are usually driven to the site and an employee is stationed in the truck for the entire time, while the driver/owner leaves the scene. In many instances, the person stationed in the truck cannot drive the vehicle. It is time cities ban these trucks from operating any other way than what they were initially intended. They were designed to enter construction and business sites so workers would be able to purchase food and drinks without leaving the property during their breaks and lunch. Most of these places did not have any dining facility on site or in the immediate vicinity. It is high time the city residents, property owners and business owners unite and voice their concerns regarding the Roach Coach Invasion.
Trust in Redwood City

Editor, It is no surprise that the Redwood City Chamber of Commerce was fined by the California Fair Political Practices Commission for failing to disclose that it spent $25,000 to oppose a 2008 local ballot measure that would have restricted development on open space in Redwood City, including the controversial DMB and Cargill salt ponds development. However the real news in that story (Chamber fined over campaign contributions in the June 18 edition of the Daily Journal) was missed. It turns out that current and former Redwood City Council members Jeff Ira, Jeff Gee, Jim Hartnett and Rosanne Foust, are, or were, Chamber of Commerce board members. Nancy Radcliff, Redwood City planning commissioner, and John Bruno, a principal of DMB Associates, also serve on the chambers board. I doubt it is a coincidence that the chamber failed to disclose its $25,000 to defeat a measure directly opposed to DMBs interests. This is now the second time that Redwood City public officials have been either directly or indirectly found in violation of California state law (the first violation was in 2010 and involved Rosanne Foust). The decision to approve or reject DMB and Cargills massive development plan for the salt ponds is still pending before the Redwood City Council and Planning Commission. However, the public can no longer trust that they will make a fair and impartial decision free of undue influence.

largest gain among the 10 industry groups that make up the S&P 500 index. Financial companies like Morgan Stanley, which lost 1.9 percent, were the only group to lose ground. The S&P 500 notched its third straight day of gains, the longest stretch of increases in the stock market for nearly a month. The index eked out a tiny gain last week, breaking a six-week losing streak driven by concerns that U.S. economic growth would falter in the second half of the year and that Greeces debt crisis would spread. It was the S&Ps longest slide since 2002. Signs that the European nancial crisis may be contained helped ease investors concerns. European Union ofcials in Luxemburg said Monday that the EU would take steps to prevent Greeces debt problems from affecting other struggling countries like Ireland and Portugal. European leaders failed over the weekend to agree on releasing more nancial aid to Greece, saying the country must rst agree to more budget cuts. Greeces recent efforts to slash spending have led to street protests and political turmoil in Athens.

NEW YORK Investors largely put aside their concerns about the Greek financial crisis Monday and focused instead on value. Stocks rose broadly after the market shook off its longest weekly losing streak in nearly a decade. The downturn brought the S&P 500 close to its average level over the prior 200 days. So long as the index doesnt sink far below that level, many technical traders see it as a sign to start buying stocks again. The S&P is now 6 percent below the 2011 high it reached on April 29.

EU debt crisis shadows Fed meeting

By Martin Crutsinger
WASHINGTON If the U.S. economic slowdown werent enough to deal with, the Federal Reserve this week must consider a new threat: a resurgent European debt crisis that could imperil the global economy. Financial markets have been gripped by fears that Greece will default on its debt. Other European nations with heavy debt burdens, such as Ireland, Portugal, Spain and perhaps Italy, could be at risk, too. When they meet Tuesday and Wednesday, Fed ofcials will likely discuss what they might do to help shield U.S. banks and a still fragile U.S. economy if Europes crisis worsened. Some analysts suggest that a panic would
cause the Fed to intervene as it did during the 2008 nancial crisis, when it lent billions to banks. The European debt crisis has the potential to have as big an impact as the subprime mortgage crisis did in the United States, said Sung Won Sohn, an economics professor at California State University. If it spreads to Spain and Italy, then the global economy could be facing huge problems. Once its meeting ends Wednesday afternoon, the Fed will issue a statement thats likely to say it will leave a key interest rate at a record low near zero for an extended period. Many economists say the U.S. slowdown means the Fed wont start raising rates until the summer of 2012, about six months later than many thought when 2011 began. Later in the afternoon, the Fed will
update its economic forecasts. And then Chairman Ben Bernanke will hold a news conference his second session with reporters under his new policy of holding regular news conferences for the rst time in the Feds history. When the European debt crisis rst surfaced in the spring of 2010, Bernanke told Congress that it would likely have only a modest effect on the U.S. economy as long as Wall Street stabilized. He cautioned that the Fed would monitor the developments and their potential effects on the U.S. economy. At the time, the Fed opened a program to ship dollars overseas to pump more cash into the nancial system and give European central banks enough dollars to lend to commercial banks. In return, the Fed received European currencies to hold until the dollars were repaid.
Low-income prepaid-card users facing higher fees

By Daniel Wagner
WASHINGTON Millions of poor Americans who use prepaid debit cards could soon face higher fees. Under a rule to take effect in July, companies that issue debit cards must reduce the fees they charge retailers. To recoup their lost revenue, banks that offer the cards are raising fees for people who use them. People who use prepaid debit cards, typically low-income consumers and those collecting government benefits, are supposed to be shielded from the fee hikes. To protect them, the rule provided
an exemption: It let companies that issue prepaid cards keep charging retailers higher rates. But that exemption could take up to a year to enact. In the meantime, card companies will likely charge users of prepaid cards higher fees to recoup the lost revenue. About 70 percent of prepaid card users earn under $45,000, according to data from Aite Group, a research rm. The cards, preloaded with cash, give users easy access to their money. Others use them to receive government benets. Annual fees for the cards can run $108 to $320, according to data analyzed by the consulting rm Bretton Woods Inc. To make up the swipe-fee revenue theyd
lose while the exemption is phased in, card issuers would need to raise fees by up to $220. If prepaid-card companies cant collect high swipe-fees, lower-income people are going to get clobbered, said Todd Zywicki, a George Mason University law professor. Michelle Coppola, a sales consultant near Roanoke, Va., says she struggled with banks minimum-balance rules and overdraft fees before switching to prepaid cards.

one else. But its not like the three-sport thing is something new for Jacobs. Shes been doing it her entire life, juggling volleyball with soccer and then mixing in softball at the end of the year. Jacobs said thats been the routine since the fth grade when she decided to cut ties with her gymnastics career when she was told that, to take it to the next level, she would have to train year-round and give up all over sports. The idea did not y with Jacobs. She said good-bye to gymnastics and said hello to a world that sounds chaotic at times. And pretty tiring. Its just about being able to manage my time well, Jacobs said. This year, I had a free seventh (period) which gave me an hour and a half to go to the library and get some homework done because I dont like staying up late. On top of being a three-sport athlete, Jacobs time was spent racking up a 4.18 weighted GPA. When she was through with the books, shed don the orange and black and force the Peninsula Athletic League to take notes on the volleyball court as an outside hitter, the soccer pitch as the goalkeeper and the softball eld as the starting shortstop and lead-off hitter.
Size not a factor in volleyball

In volleyball, Jacobs was a starting outside hitter despite her size and still managed to have a successful season that landed her on the Ocean Division All-League second team. Its hard to be outmatched, Jacobs said, because a lot teams have tall girls up front. So
San Mateos Karyn Jacobs will be the rst to tell you, shes not very tall. In fact, the word she uses is short. And then she chuckles a bit. The essence of what makes Jacobs, who will be a senior in the fall, the San Mateo Daily Journal Female Athlete of Year lies in that laugh. Talking to her you get the sense that, over the span of a year while playing three different sports, many an opponent has underestimated what she is capable of based on that short stature. But in 2010-2011, Jacobs proved that there is a ton of athletic punch packed into her 5-foot, 5-inch frame more than enough punch to land her the Daily Journals top athletic honor. The truth is, if athleticism were measured the same way height is, the girl would be seven feet tall, because it isnt just that Jacobs landed on three different All-League teams this season, its that she did it playing positions that (a) are usually reserved for taller girls or (b) are given to the best players on the eld. It was her ability to take those challenges head-on that put her atop every-

Warriors dont expect to deal Menlos

By Antonio Gonzalez
OAKLAND The Golden State Warriors have made some splashy moves already this offseason. Just dont expect another one on draft night. At least thats what general manager Larry Riley predicts. With the trade talk surrounding leading scorer Monta Ellis only growing louder ahead of Thursday nights NBA draft, Riley said he isnt planning to send Ellis anywhere at least not yet. Its very likely that he will not be traded on draft night or even through the summer. Im not looking at that happening. It would take something that I dont see for that to happen, Riley said Monday. For all the changes the Warriors have made this offseason, theyve done nothing to improve the roster. Any conversation about overhauling a franchise that has made the playoffs just once since 1994 begins and ends with the talented tandem of Ellis and Stephen Curry. The two undersized guards are similar in style and stature, forming one of the highest scoring backcourts in the league but also one of the worst defensive duos. Curry is considered untradeable by the team because hes two years younger and has a more friendly contract than Ellis, the eighthhighest scorer in the league last season at 24.1 points per game. Riley, while acknowledging that he still gets far more trade inquiries for Curry, also knows his biggest bargaining piece is Ellis because of salary cap limitations. That doesnt make the decision any easier. How many two guards are better than
REUTERS
Golden State guard Monta Ellis has been the subject of trade rumors for months, but Warriors general manager Larry Riley says a deal during the summer is unlikely. The Warriors are looking to upgrade their roster through Thursdays draft,which is considered weak.
Monta Ellis? Its a short list, he said. Maybe two. Or you can talk to some people who will say three or four. I would say hes one of the top ve two guards in this league. Hes pretty special. We would be stupid to deny that we have a special player in Monta Ellis.
With the 11th pick in the draft, the Warriors arent likely to receive an immediate jolt. They are merely hoping to select a player who can become a rotation regular, and anything more next season would be a bonus. The Warriors biggest need in the draft is to bolster an undersized frontcourt, and that wont be easy in what is widely considered a weak collection of rookies. Among the most likely candidates that could still be available are power forwards Bismack Biyombo of Spain, Kansas Markieff Morris and Texas Tristan Thompson; and bigger guards such as Washington States Klay Thompson or Colorados Alec Burks. The likelihood of getting somebody that changes a team isnt very good, Riley said. And if you look at the history of guys, even in last years draft, in some cases guys go to teams high in the draft and they didnt win as many games as they did the year before. All the more reason the Warriors could take a gamble. New owners Joe Lacob and Peter Guber have shown they arent afraid to take risk since they bought the franchise last fall for a league record $450 million. They pulled Jerry West out of retirement to be a front-ofce consultant, hired sports agent Bob Myers as assistant general manager and future GM and broadcaster Mark Jackson as coach despite no previous experience. All have spoken highly of Ellis and expressed condence that the double point guard dynamic could work. They also have shifted directions at a moments notice. Theyre risk-takers, Riley said of ownership. But what they didnt tell you is theyre calculated risk-takers. Theyre not just going to Las Vegas. Theyll take a risk, and Ill go along with it. Im on board with that.

SAN JOSE The San Jose Sharks say they wont re-sign veterans Scott Nichol, Jamal Mayers and Niclas Wallin. General manager Doug Wilson said as much Monday, adding that the team will also replace top assistant coach Trent Yawney, who left to pursue a head-coaching job in the AHL. Nichol, Mayers and Wallin will become unrestricted free agents on July 1. Nichol appeared in 135 games for the Sharks with eight goals, 18 assists and 26 points, while Mayer spent one season with the Sharks, scoring three goals and adding 11 assists. Wallin played in 97 games for San Jose with three goals and ve assists. Yawney spent three seasons on Sharks coach Todd McLellans staff.

Pujols out six weeks with wrist fracture

By R.B. Fallstrom
ST. LOUIS Concluding a news brieng about Albert Pujols injury that killed the mood at Tony La Russas charity golf event, the St. Louis Cardinals manager let down his guard. Im going to go nd a place to cry, La Russa said. Pujols will be out an estimated six weeks with a fractured left wrist from a rst-base collision over the weekend. Baseball will be without a three-time NL MVP and the Cardinals, tied for rst in the NL Central, are left to absorb another devastating blow in a season
marred by injuries. You cant replace a player of his magnitude, general manager John Mozeliak said. It just seems like weve had to deal with one injury after another. We still have to nd Albert Pujols ways to win games, and thats what well do. The team announced the results of an MRI and CT scan Monday, one day after Pujols was injured during a home game against Kansas City. The injury is a non-displaced fracture of the left radius bone and his arm is in a splint.
Mozeliak said he hoped to have Pujols back by the beginning of August and the team anticipated no lingering effects from what the general manager described as a small fracture. Mozeliak said Pujols left shoulder was sore but no structural damage was found. Though his .279 average is 50 points below his career numbers, Pujols was starting to heat up after a slow start and went 3 for 3 with a homer in his last at-bat on Sunday. Hes among the league leaders with 17 homers and 45 RBIs. Pujols was hurt trying to make a tag after taking an off-line throw from second baseman Pete Kozma and the Royals Wilson Betemit

Venus,Nadal win Winbledon openers

By Howard Fendrich
WIMBLEDON, England Back on one of tennis top stages, Venus Williams cut a familiar figure Monday at Wimbledon, from her latest original, somewhat-see-through outfit to her trademark booming serves and aggressive groundstrokes. Williams smacked seven aces at up to 118 mph, totaled 23 winners to only ve unforced errors, and overwhelmed 97th-ranked Akgul Amanmuradova of Uzbekistan 6-3, 6-1 in the rst round at the All England Club. The seven-time major champion recently was off the tour for about ve months with a bum hip, including missing the French Open, and this is only her fourth tournament in nearly a year. Its a good place to start. And this is kind of like a home for her. She loves it, said Williams hitting partner, David Witt. She feels condent out here, and in womens tennis, condent goes a long way. There sure was nothing shy about a playsuit Williams called trendy: white and sleeveless, with a deep V neckline, a triangle cut out in the back, a gold belt and gold zipper. Jumpers are very now, she
explained, as is lace. Not as sensational as the corsetlike black lace number with skintoned undergarments that drew so much attention at the 2010 French Open, but Mondays romper looked something akin to a toga and surely would have won the approval of her Roman goddess namesake. She always has something interesting, said the 6-foot-3 Amanmuradova, a rare opponent taller than the 6-foot-1 Williams. Its good to have something different on the tour. I wear shorts, and everybody is criticizing that I look like a guy. ... If she feels comfortable, perfect. Personally, I wouldnt wear this, because its not going to look good on me. But if its white, you can play. Thats the rule. If everybody wears the same, its boring. Williams outt and, of course, superb play, which betrayed no lingering effects from her injury generated the most buzz on Day 1 in the 125th edition of the grass-court Grand Slam tournament. I do realize I dont have as many matches, said Williams, only 5-2 this season and only 9-3 since last July. So, yeah, for sure, I know I need to kind of come out ring. Been pretty good at that in the past

and today. Others reaching the second round included 10-time major champion Rafael Nadal, whose parents sat in the Royal Box during his 6-4, 6-2, 62 victory over 90th-ranked Michael Russell of Houston; No. 4 Andy Murray, and No. 10 Mardy Fish. It was Nadals rst chance to play the tournaments opening match on Centre Court, an honor given to the defending mens champion, and something he called a big emotion. Bad knees forced Nadal to withdraw in 2009, a year after he won Wimbledon for the first time. He was more blase about his parents special seats, saying: It doesnt make any difference to me whether I see them in my (guest) box or in the Royal Box. But I think it was a beautiful experience
for them. Nadal now faces another American, 69th-ranked Ryan Sweeting of Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., who dropped the first two sets against Pablo Andujar of Spain before coming all the way back to win 3-6, 4-6, 6-1, 7-6 (1), 6-1. Itll be Sweetings third match against Nadal this year. Nadal won the others in straight sets, including at the Australian Open. They keep putting me up in the top half of the draw. I dont know what the deal is, Sweeting said. What can I say? Hes obviously one of the toughest opponents to play on any surface. The second question at Nadals news conference concerned whether he believes Murray, Roger Federer or Novak Djokovic is likeliest to thwart his title hopes. My biggest opponent is Sweeting now. I am focused on my part of the draw. Im focused on myself. To play against Andy or Djokovic or Federer only can be in the nal; against Andy in the seminals, the Spaniard replied. So lets talk about today. Lets talk about tomorrow. ... Lets (not) talk about ... 10 days or 12 days (from now), because I dont know if I am here or I am shing in Mallorca.
Effort seems there in NBA talks, but is time?

By Brian Mahoney
NEW YORK The effort seems there in the NBA labor talks. Time might not be. Owners and players are scheduled to meet again Tuesday, a session that Commissioner David Stern indicated would be critical in gauging whether a new collective bargaining agreement can be reached before the current deal expires on June 30. This will be at least the sixth meeting this month. After Fridays 4 1/2-hour session, both parties left believing the commitment to getting a deal done was there, yet unsure if there would be enough time to avoid
a lockout. Theres a very clear sense of urgency, but were not sure between now and July 1 if we can make up the gulf that exists Derek Fisher between the two sides, players association president Derek Fisher of the Los Angeles Lakers said Friday. Although the league agreed last week to leave contract guarantees as is, major disagreements remain. Players argue that the current system doesnt need an overhaul. Owners disagree and seek a hard salary cap system and a reduction of
contract lengths, all part of their desire to slash player costs by about one-third, about $750 million of the approximately $2.1 billion spent on player salaries and benets last season. Owners also seek to change the split of revenues, of which players currently are guaranteed 57 percent. Players have offered to discuss a reduction in that percentage, but their gure was not acceptable to the league. Were very far apart still on some big items as well as some small items but not afraid of the July 1 deadline in terms of giving up on this process, Fisher said. Were still committed to trying to get something done between now and July 1.
Union executive Maurice Evans of Washington, however, was frustrated by the owners stance, saying theyre still pushing for items that were in an original proposal that players already believed was off the table. Theres still major changes to the system as we know it, and according to them, there is no system, Evans said. So were starting from scratch, and thats kind of hard to do in two weeks. On Tuesday, Stern expects a counterproposal relating to the economic issues of the league. Though both he and Fisher have said things can happen quickly once theres a breakthrough, its unlikely a deal will be reached this week, let alone Tuesday. Yet both sides might
be reluctant to call off the talks entirely, especially since that would overshadow Thursday nights draft. The best news then might be if they end the meeting by deciding to have another. We had today, well have Tuesday, Stern said last week. If Tuesday might turn into Wednesday and Wednesday might turn into Thursday and I know the union has all the player reps in on Thursday, and presumably if there were any signicant progress across an array of issues they could be sequestered into Friday. Weve even been known to work weekends around here. Its not called for yet, but everyone is exible.

as well, Tigno said. Karyn has a great team attitude. One of the things I enjoy about her is she was there to do what you ask her to do. She would never question it, she was there and performed just the way you asked her to. At times, Jacobs was asked to use pure athleticism to make some psychotic saves. Jacobs recalls a game against Aragon where on a corner kick, the ball came and I guess I passed the ball like I would in volleyball. But then (teammate) Jen Ticzon stopped and stared at me and was like, What did you just do?! Were playing soccer, but you saved that ball, I am so proud of you. Jacobs acknowledges that San Mateos momentum atop the Bay Division hit a wall at the end of the season. Still, the Bearcats nished in second place and received an invite to the Central Coast Section playoffs.
Utah Jazz in a jam when it JACOBS comes to drafting Jimmer

SALT LAKE CITY Jimmer Fredette has his own reality show, a song thats amassed nearly a million YouTube views and a legion of followers. He also has a legion of detractors, making him possibly the most polarizing player in this years NBA draft. Caught in the middle are the Utah Jazz, who with two rst-round picks very well may be in position to pull the trigger at No. 12 and draft the BYU shooter turned national sensation. The question is should they and will they? I dont envy Kevin OConnor on this one, Steve Kerr, a former NBA player and Phoenix Suns executive, said of the Jazz general manager. If they dont take him and he blows up and is really good, thats a problem. Now theyre the team that screwed up and didnt take Jimmer when he was right in their backyard. If (OConnor) does take him and Jimmer doesnt pan out, then its the opposite. You have to follow your gut. If you like him, take him. Either way its a lot of pressure. OConnor gets to make the nal decision Thursday on draft night. It wont be without input from Walt Perrin, the teams vice president of player personnel. Perrin knows what its like to draft a hometown hero. He was director of scouting with the Detroit Pistons in 2000 when they held the No. 14 pick. They used it on a guy who grew up in Flint, Mich., and starred at Michigan State, leading the Spartans to the NCAA championship just a few months earlier. But Mateen Cleaves would hardly become the all-everything player that LeBron James
was in Cleveland and Derrick Rose is in Chicago. Cleaves lasted one year in Detroit, averaging 5.4 points and 2.7 assists, before bouncing around and out of the league. It didnt work out that well, Perrin said. There was not that pressure with the team in Detroit as there is right now with Jimmer. Perrin doesnt live in Salt Lake City, so he doesnt hear what coach Tyrone Corbin and OConnor must deal with on a daily basis. But he saw the throng of media that ocked to Fredettes workout last week, and hears the endless speculation. If the Jazz go big with the No. 3 pick, a guard gures to be a top priority with the No. 12 pick. The guards most often mentioned for picks 10 to 15 are Fredette, Colorado sophomore Alec Burks and Washington State junior Klay Thompson. Fredettes squeaky-clean image gives him an advantage over Thompson, who has a black mark on his resume following a March incident in which he was cited for marijuana possession and suspended for Washington States regular-season nale. Burks could be the perfect t for the Jazz if they want an aggressive scorer with great court vision. Neither Burks nor Thompson, both of whom worked out for the Jazz on Monday, put up the kind of numbers Fredette did in leading the NCAA in scoring (28.9) and earning national player of the year honors. As for marketing, Fredette has plenty of appeal. Short-term, Jimmer no doubt would sell some tickets and create excitement and intrigue in Utah, said Jeff Robbins, president of the Utah Sports Commission.
So its more about being smart than getting kills 50 percent of the time. Thats what Im able to do. Shes got a pretty high reach and a pretty explosive jump, said San Mateo head coach Chris Tigno, who has seen Jacobs grow into an outside hitter in her two years on his varsity team and club squad. Out of all the girls, she was probably our most consistent player. Shes very athletic, she has the ability to adjust her swing and she has a lot of hang time, so she is able to nd the spots on the oor against some pretty tall blockers. She did a good job for us. She expends a lot of energy getting up there to get those kills. Somebody whos shorter just needs to have a lot more stamina and be a little more crafty about how theyre going to do it. If youre short, but you have good peripheral vision, you can nd ways to get the kills. Shes one of the most athletic players Ive coached in a while. Shes really agile. I was amazed at the way she could adjust.
No rest for the weary

But as soon as that season was over, Jacobs slid over to the softball eld. And by soon we mean a day. I called coach (Randy Boardman) and said, Ill be at practice tomorrow. On the Ocean Division winning softball team, Jacobs played the position usually reserved for the most athletic player: shortstop. And she batted lead off where she nished with a .345 batting average (third best on the team), driving in 10 while scoring 18 runs. She also boasted a .823 elding percentage. I denitely got burnt out. My whole body was tired, Jacobs said about the end of school year. But I had to push through, I had to nish the season. For Jacobs, the season ended with an AllLeague First Team selection. I denitely did better in all three sports than I did the previous year, she said. I was more comfortable being on the varsity (teams). That helped me to perform better. So, what will she do for encore? Despite the demands of a high school senior year, Jacobs intends to participate in all three sports again on top of applying for college and knocking out all the fun stuff that comes with ending her time at San Mateo. Its just another thing thatll have to t in the schedule, she said. It wont be a tall order not for Jacobs at least.
The right mentality for soccer

The weekend after concluding her volleyball season, Jacobs strapped on her goalie gloves and headed to the soccer pitch, where she was the last line of defense on a Bearcats team that surprised a lot of people in their rst season in the PAL Bay Division. While manning the posts, Jacobs was part of a defense that carried the team for the majority of the season. Its a position that Jacobs loves. She also knows it isnt the most sane to play, given the ups and downs. My philosophy is, if a goal goes in, it has to pass 10 other players before it gets past me, Jacobs said. So, its not my fault. Its a team effort, and Im a part of that team. Everybody has to work together. I mean, with a goalie, its a lot of judgment calls, its onthe-spot, its a lot of mental (strength) being a goalie being smart goes with that. I think one of the things that makes her a great three-sport player is, shes a goalie, so she needs to see the play developing in front of her. I think she uses that skill in volleyball

80-year-old LOUNGE McKeon takes over Marlins

By Steve Wine
MIAMI New Florida Marlins interim manager Jack McKeon sat listening as team president David Samson offered a spirited defense of the decision to give the job to an octogenarian. Samson said the 80-year-old McKeon works harder than many people half his age and seems even sharper mentally than in 2003, when he led the Marlins to an improbable World Series championship. In response to the comments, a grinning McKeon intentionally messed up Samsons name. Thanks, George, McKeon said. The new, old skipper drew some laughs at his re-introductory news conference Jack McKeon Monday, but the hiring was no joke. Nearly six years after McKeon retired as the Marlins manager, he returned to his former job on an interim basis and will lead the team for the rest of the season. He becomes the second-oldest manager in major league history. Connie Mack managed the Philadelphia Athletics in a suit, tie and straw hat until 1950, when he was 87. McKeon will wear a uniform with No. 25. Ive managed since I was 14 years old, he jokingly said. Ill probably manage until Im 95. The cigar-chomping McKeon succeeds manager Edwin Rodriguez, who resigned before Sundays loss at Tampa Bay. Last-place Florida took a 10-game losing streak into Monday nights matchup at home against the Los Angeles Angels. McKeons rst lineup card caused a stir, because it didnt include 2009 NL batting champion Hanley Ramirez, who has been in a slump all season.

collided with the glove hand. He hit me on my wrist and my shoulder, Pujols said afterward. He kind of jammed me back. Its the toughest play to make as a rst baseman. Its a bang-bang play. I saw the replay a couple of times, but I didnt really want to look at it. Betemit said there was no way to avoid the collision. I was running hard and the ball arrived at the same time I got to the base, Betemit said. Thats part of the game. I couldnt do anything about it. Mozeliak said he hadnt spoken with Pujols, who had been optimistic after the game that the injury wasnt serious. I was optimistic we were going to get better news, Mozeliak said. I really was.

Freese and utilityman Nick Punto have begun rehab stints and Mozeliak said they wouldnt be rushed back. Mozeliak didnt anticipate Allen Craig, on the DL with a knee injury, back for 3-4 weeks. Lance Berkman took over at rst base after the injury and could serve as the long-term llin at the position, although both Mozeliak and La Russa hedged on that. Berkman began the year as a full-time outelder for the rst time since 2004 and said earlier in the year that he anticipated outeld play to be easier on his legs because there would be fewer stops and starts. Getting Lance in a place where hes physically feeling the best is a really good answer for us, La Russa said.

Women 30 and older wait three years between screenings if theyve had a negative Pap and negative HPV test, or three consecutive clear Paps. If a Pap is inconclusive at any age, HPV testing may help rule out who needs further examination and who can just repeat a Pap in a year. Anyone whos been vaccinated against HPV, a relatively new vaccine, still must follow Pap screening guidelines for their age group. Higher-risk women, such as those with HIV or previous cervical abnormalities,need more frequent screening.
screen for cervical cancer. Now doctors know that certain strains of HPV, the human papillomavirus, cause most cervical cancer. HPV testing isnt a replacement for the Pap. But it can provide extra information to help determine if a woman is at higher or lower risk and thus guide her ongoing care if its used correctly. The new CDC study, part of a national survey of medical practices that included 600 providers of cervical cancer screening, examined how doctors are using it. The study found 60 percent of doctors and clinics say they give a routine Pap-plus-HPV test to women who are too young for that combination. Guidelines stress that so-called cotesting is only for women 30 and older. If both
Study finds that a child dies in portable pool every five days
By JoAnne Viviano
COLUMBUS, Ohio A child dies in a portable pool every ve days during warmweather months, according to the rst U.S. study on child drownings in such pools, a statistic that the studys senior author says demonstrates the need for consumer education and affordable protection devices. The research being published Monday in the journal Pediatrics shows 209 deaths and 35 near-drownings of children under 12 from 2001 through 2009. Most of the children, 94 percent, were under 5, and 81 percent of the accidents happened during summer months. The anecdotal evidence was suggesting that because portable pools are readily available in many convenience stores and malls, and theyre relatively cheap, parents would pick them up, take them home, quickly assemble them, and all this would be done without a lot of forethought about the safety aspects, said senior author, Dr. Gary A. Smith, director of the Center for Injury Research and Policy at
Nationwide Childrens Hospital in Columbus. The study focused on portable pools, from small wading pools less than 18 inches deep to inatable pools and other soft-sided pools that can reach depths of 4 feet. It was conducted by researchers at Nationwide hospital and Independent Safety Consulting in Rockville, Md. They say the ndings are comparable to drownings related to in-ground pools. Many safety methods used for permanent pools, such as fencing, pool alarms, safety covers and removable or lockable ladders, are too expensive or not available for families who purchase portable pools, said Smith, who also is a pediatrics professor at the Ohio State University College of Medicine. The Association of Pool & Spa Professionals supports layers of protection, and the study underscores the importance of active, undistracted adult supervision, said Carvin DiGiovanni a senior director at the Alexandria, Va.-based association. The primary layer of protection is constant
WASHINGTON Too many doctors are testing the wrong women, or using the wrong test, for a virus that causes cervical cancer. The days of one-size-ts-all screening for cervical cancer are long gone. How often to get a Pap smear and whether to be tested for the cancer-causing HPV virus at the same time now depend on your age and other circumstances. But a government study reports Monday that a surprising number of doctors and clinics arent following guidelines from major medical groups on how to perform HPV checks, suggesting a lot of women are getting unnecessary tests. That wastes money and could harm women who wind up getting extra medical care they didnt need, says Dr. Mona Saraiya of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, who led the research. Even she wasnt protected from the confusion. Saraiya was stunned to get a bill showing that her own doctor had ordered testing for HPV strains not connected to cervical cancer. The findings, reported in the journal Obstetrics & Gynecology, show women have to be savvy to ensure theyre getting the right checkups enough, but not too much. Its extremely discouraging, says Debbie Saslow, gynecologic cancer director at the American Cancer Society, whos had to argue with her doctor against testing too often. We have not been able to get that message across. Cervical cancer grows so slowly that Pap smears which examine cells scraped from the cervix usually nd it in time to treat, or even to prevent when precancerous cells are spotted and removed. For decades, Paps were the only way to

Cigarette makers have until the fall of 2012 to comply. Mandates to introduce new graphic warning labels were part of a law passed in 2009 that, for the rst time, gave the federal government authority to regulate tobacco, including setting guidelines for marketing and labeling, banning certain products and limiting nicotine. The law doesnt let the FDA ban nicotine or tobacco. The announcement follows reviews of scientific literature, public comments and results from an FDA-contracted study of 36 labels proposed last November, which included corpses of smokers, cancer over the past decade. In 2002-03, San Mateo had the equivalent of 766.26 full-time positions but that number has dropped signicantly over the years to 636.97 full-time equivalent positions for FY 2011-12. Parks and recreation has absorbed the most losses during that time, with the department losing an equivalent of 31 full-time equivalent positions. The police department has lost 20 full-time equivalent positions, the re department has lost nine full-time equivalent positions and the public works department has lost 15 full-time equivalent positions over the same period. In the past year, city staff have tried to project the citys revenues and expenditures over the next several years to see what services it can continue to offer its residents with the expiration of Measure L, a quarter-cent sales tax, which generates about $3.5 million a year. Measure L and a boost to the citys hotel understood the different HPV types, a test already was on the market that detects strains that can cause genital warts, not cervical cancer. The CDCs Saraiya says theres no reason to use that old test because learning you have a probably transient warts-causing strain doesnt alter your care. Yet her study found 28 percent of doctors and clinics say they order tests for both the cancer-causing and warts-causing strains, regardless of patient age. The study couldnt tell why, although Saraiya says some doctors percent of near-drownings, numbers that help show its time for us to begin requiring that people learn how to do CPR, perhaps by adding it to high school curricula, said Susan Baker, a professor at the Johns Hopkins Center for Injury Research & Policy in Baltimore. That to me is a reminder that every one of us ought to be knowledgeable about how to do CPR and willing to jump in and do it

FDA to issue new graphic cigarette warning labels

By Michael Felberbaum
RICHMOND, Va. Coming to a store near you: nine more reasons not to smoke. In the most signicant change to U.S. cigarette packs in 25 years, the Food and Drug Administration on Tuesday is set to release nine new warning labels that will depict in graphic detail the negative health effects of tobacco use. Among the possible images are rotting and diseased teeth and gums and a man with a tracheotomy smoking. The labels will take up the top half of a pack both front and back of cigarette packs.
Warning labels also must appear in advertisements and constitute 20 percent of an ad. maintain the citys sewer system. Amendments to the budget may be necessary, however, if the state decides to disband redevelopment agencies as proposed by Gov. Jerry Brown, said the citys Finance Director David Culver. The citys biggest expense is its police department with a budget of $28.5 million, up about $1 million more than last years budget. The public works budget for FY 2011-12 is $25.5 million, down about $1 million from last years budget. The re departments budget is up slightly from last year to $19.7 million and the parks and recreation budget is down slightly to $13.9 million. This next scal year, the city plans to reduce hours at the Martin Luther King Community Center because of budget constraints and will also not do any tree trimming, for example. The city has trimmed nearly $15 million from its budget and lost about 130 employees only a years-long infection is risky. Learning that a 20-something has HPV increases the odds of more invasive testing that in turn can leave her cervix less able to handle pregnancy later in life. Younger women are supposed to get HPV testing only if a Pap signals a possible problem and doctors really need the extra information. Then theres the question of which test to use. Only a few so-called high-risk strains of HPV cause cervical cancer, the strains doctors are supposed to test for. Before scientists them knowing that they would be more likely to use it. The study shows that children were supervised by adults in fewer than half, 43 percent, of the drownings and near-drownings, and that most, 73 percent, were at home. Among other data, the report shows CPR was administered before emergency crews arrived in 15 percent of the fatalities and 17
patients and diseased lungs. Some of the labels proposed last year include a mother blowing smoke in her babys face and cigarettes being ushed down the toilet to signify quitting. They include phrases like Smoking can kill you and Cigarettes cause cancer and feature graphic images to convey the dangers of tobacco, which is responsible for about 443,000 deaths in the U.S. per year. Whether the federal government chose to go with more hard-hitting images for the new labels or more subtle messages like illustrations of a smoker being controlled by strings like a marionette remains a question. tax was approved by voters in 2009. In April, top officials in the city gave up some benefits in an effort to curb the citys escalating pension and health insurance costs. The city manager, police and re chiefs and other top ofcials agreed to pay a portion of their own retirement pension and health insurance benet costs to save the city roughly $160,000 a year. The move was applauded by Mayor Jack Matthews as an example to the citys rankand-le employees, who continue to face furlough days to help meet the citys revenue. The citys general fund revenue is projected to increase by an average of just 2.5 percent annually over the next eight years, below the 5 percent historical average. Declines in property tax, property transfer tax and sales tax have led to the citys nancial woes. FY 2011-12 begins July 1. dont know theres a difference and some order forms for the lab tests dont differentiate. An HPV test costs $80 to $100, on top of a $40 Pap. Saraiya says labs can bill for two HPV tests when doctors order testing for both kinds of strains. So what does a woman need to know before her next checkup? The CDC has developed a consumer-friendly brochure to help women understand their options for cervical cancer screening: http://tinyurl.com/6g8de6v immediately, said Baker, who was not involved in the study.

Study says one in 13 children have food allergy

By Lindsey Tanner
CHICAGO Food allergies affect about one in 13 U.S. children, double the latest government estimate, a new study suggests. The researchers say about 40 percent of them have severe reactions a nding they hope will erase misconceptions that food allergies are just like hay fever and other seasonal allergies that are troublesome but not dangerous. Overall, 8 percent of the children studied had food allergies; peanuts and milk were the most common sources. That translates to nearly 6 million U.S. children. The most recent government estimate, from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, was based on in-home interviews and found that about 3 million children were affected, or about 4 percent. Other estimates based on different methods have ranged from 2 percent to 8 percent. The new study, funded by an advocacy group, is based on online interviews with parents of kids younger than age 18 and involved 40,104 children. Research firm Knowledge Networks conducted the survey. Families were recruited through random telephone dialing. Results were released online Monday in Pediatrics. The ndings suggest that food
Many children outgrow allergies to some foods, including eggs and wheat, but theyre less likely to outgrow allergies to peanuts and other nuts.
allergies affect two kids per classroom, said lead author Dr. Ruchi Gupta, a pediatrician and researcher with Chicagos Childrens Memorial Hospital. Dr. Calman Prussin, an investigator with the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said the study conrms that food allergy is a substantial public health problem. Prussin said differences in estimates are due to different survey methods and denitions of what constitutes a food allergy. He said the only way to know for sure how many kids are affected would be lab tests on scores of children, which isnt practical. Because the new gure is within the range of previous estimates, he
said the study doesnt mean prevalence has increased, although experts generally believe allergies including those to food are on the rise, Prussin noted. He said some people mistake food intolerances for food allergies. For instance, many people are lactose intolerant, meaning they cant properly digest milk. That can cause bloating and digestive problems, but not an allergic reaction. Typical signs of a true food allergy include skin rashes, wheezing, tightness in the throat or difculty breathing. The new survey asked parents whether their children had those symptoms - a big strength of the study, Prussin said. Many children outgrow allergies to some foods, including eggs and wheat, but theyre less likely to outgrow allergies to peanuts and other nuts. The study was funded by the Food Allergy Initiative, a nonprot advocacy group founded by parents of children with allergies. Mary Jane Marchisotto, the groups executive director, said the study paints a more comprehensive picture of food allergies, and should help raise awareness. The group, funded privately but without industry money, is working with the CDC on national guidelines on how to manage food allergies in schools, she said.

lion in the funds to be used in restoring three probation ofcers and maintain the Camp Kemp facility. Although the county recommends closing the all-girls juvenile camp, debt service and maintenance remains. The program is a victim of its own success, rehabilitating juvenile female wards to the extent the population has dwindled to less than eight and it costs too much per minor to keep up, said Chief Probation Ofcer Stu Forrest. An assessment center in which juveniles are evaluated before released or detained is also in the financial crosshairs although Forrest said the proposed 1.5 position reduction is actually right sizing the staff to where it should be. County supervisors were concerned about limiting the assessment center and losing any probation ofcers, particularly with the advent of state realignment. Probation has lost 75 positions since 2006. If we all start nibbling at the edges of programs that have been successful, then suddenly those programs dont exist anymore, Groom said. Supervisor Adrienne Tissier suggested Camp Kemp could become a revenue generator, perhaps as a center for unruly children or housing wards from other counties. But while none of the proposals or cuts are easy, according to the respective department heads, none drew public input on the level of the Health System. In particular, plans to cut three nurses, trim long-term care funds and eliminate to public education. Over the years hes taught at various elementary grade levels, held administrative roles including being a principal to a newly opened school, and has worked at the district level for more than 10 years. Hogan and his wife Vickie have three grown children. They currently live in Salinas but plan to move to South San Francisco. Hogan will ll the vacancy left by Howard Cohen, whose tenure as superintendent ended in December after the board unanimously voted in closed session to accept his resignation effective June 30. Until then, Cohen remains on administrative leave and retains his title while collecting his salary until his resignation takes effect June 30. Under his 2009 contract, Cohens annual pay is $171,289. The method in nding a replacement has come under re. Previously the board focused on two pre-selected candidates Associate Superintendent Adolfo Melara, who has taken over as acting superintendent in Cohens absence; and George Kozitza, who served as the districts superintendent from July 2000 through July 2003. Instead, the board voted hire a larger search rm in March. Hogan was among 17 applicants, seven of which were interviewed. A site visit was made last week with representatives of parents, employupon legal advice. Based on advice of our environmental attorney and consultants who completed the CEQA work for us, we believe we have acted lawfully, she said. Voters approved Measure A, a $468 million bond, in 2005. Those opposing the demolition previously attended board meetings to question how plans t with the proposed voter-approved work and the long-term master plans. Students argued the plan will create 125 to 200 parking spaces, a larger lot than needed. They had requested a smaller parking lot while maintaining the areas greenery. CSM President Michael Claire previously explained bond project plans are uid. Looking again at the plans, it didnt make as much sense to refurbish a building that wont be widely used. Also, parking on the north side of the campus is sparse. The lot is currently slated to be staff parking, but Claire said parking issues change often and it could be used by students in the future. The horticulture program has been on hiatus for two years, due to budget cuts, one psychiatric resident at the San Mateo Medical Center drew concern. Tricia Vinson, directing attorney for San Mateo County Legal Aid, suggested the cuts threaten the Health Systems preparation for federal health care reform because it will lose matching funds. Every 30 cents we cut is a dollar lost to the low-income residents of our community, she said. Horsley asked the board to consider adding back a public nurse in Pescadero and Supervisor Rose Jacobs Gibson said cutting the psychiatric residency by 25 percent makes me so uncomfortable. Although several omitted items were placed on a list for funding consideration Thursday, Tissier reminded the board not everything can be spared. I wish we could add everything back in, but the reality is we have to make some reductions, she said. The current scal year budget has the twin jobs of making ends meet now and carving a large chunk from the countys $82 million structural decit. This is the fourth of a ve-year plan to completely eliminate the gap which would drain the countys reserves by 2015 without action. The budget hearings continue 9 a.m. Tuesday with hearings including assessor-county-clerk recorder, controller, treasurer-tax collector, Board of Supervisors, county manager, county counsel and human resources. The hearings continue at 1:30 p.m. with the Department of Child Support Services and the Human Services Agency. ees, two trustees and a person from the community, Trustee Phil Weise said. Weise reported all had positive things to say about Hogan, who he described as someone who could bring the community together. A number of school districts will have a new superintendent this fall. Last week, the San Mateo-Foster City Elementary School District Board of Trustees named Cyndy Simms as the replacement for Pendery Clark, who is retiring after 10 years. Last month, Burlingame Elementary School District named Maggie MacIsaac, assistant superintendent of the Castro Valley Unied School District, as the new superintendent. In January, Ken Ranella, superintendent of the Menlo Park City Elementary School District, announced plans to retire. Maurice Ghysels, currently the chief schools ofcer at the Santa Clara County Ofce of Education, was named as the new superintendent. Woodside Elementary School District is searching for a leader after Diana Abbati was named the new superintendent of Los Gatos Union School District. The board meets in closed session 6 p.m. Thursday, June 23 at the South San Francisco High School library, 400 B St., South San Francisco. and the oristry program serves 4.3 fulltime equivalent students, according to the district. The remaining classroom is unneeded and most of the building systems are beyond their service life, according to the district. The district further claried only 13,500 square feet of garden (out of approximately 50,000 square feet of garden) will be destroyed. In addition, the district will transplant species critical to science classes or purchase new specimens. Those against the demolition still believe the plans will have unintended consequences like losing a beloved outdoor space. An excerpt from one employees letter included in the lawsuit said the garden is the only place left on campus where students, faculty and staff can go to get away from the concrete and rigid plots of monoculture plantings that have taken over the campus, where we can enjoy natures kindness, bounty and wonder, relax and sit on the grass and leisurely explore and experience its mini-climates and ecosystems so carefully nurtured over the past 40 years.

sources if necessary including capital improvement or the Educational Revenue Augmentation funds. The Health System priorities highlighted the choices before the Board of Supervisors this week as it hears three days of public hearings on the recommended budget. The board will vote on the proposals Thursday afternoon and adopt the nal budget in late September. The budget proposes using $47.5 million in reserves, cutting $129 million in spending and trimming 208 positions, of which 65 are lled. Some of those workers may nd slots elsewhere in the county. District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said hes held one receptionist position open in anticipation of another departments layoff. In comparison to some departments, the District Attorneys Ofce took a modest reduction. It, along with the Sheriffs Ofce, Probation Department and even the Health System, beneted from the use of public safety funds available under Proposition 172. For the District Attorneys Ofce, the extra $900,000 means operating the Keller Center, includes maintaining witness protection and prosecuting real estate fraud.

Knowledge youve gained from many of your past experiences is likely to play a big role in shaping your destiny in the year ahead. Most of the lessons youve learned will help you to avoid making the same mistakes again
CanCeR (June 21-July 22) -- If youre too easily influenced, spending too much time with people who dont know how to laugh at themselves could end up having a depressing effect on your attitude as well. Choose pals wisely. LeO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Tend to critical matters or
jobs that need doing as early as possible before moving onto anything else. The later it gets, the fewer chances youll have of contacting necessary parties. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- A discussion might be in order concerning something you either loaned or borrowed from a friend. Resolve the situation as amicably as you can. LIBRa (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- If you act contrary from what others have learned to expect from you, confusion and misunderstandings could easily occur. In order to stay in character, be extra mindful of your behavior. sCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- More than one friend will be disappointed if you appear hopeful of getting more from others than youre willing to give. Examine your motives for what you do or say.
saGITTaRIus (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Group contribu-
tions could create complications if certain people think they dont need to make the same effort as the others. Dont be one of the shirkers. CaPRICORn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- When discussing a subject of great importance, dont allow your attention to wander. Unless you pay heed to every little detail, a misunderstanding could easily manifest. aQuaRIus (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- If you can choose, try to engage in work that requires muscle power rather than mental concentration. This isnt likely to be one of your better days for sharp thinking. PIsCes (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Not everything will run as smoothly as you envision, but unless its vital, dont make a big deal out of it. Theres a chance you could
start blaming others who have tried to do their best. aRIes (March 21-April 19) -- The intentions of both friends and family are likely to be noble, but kin wont always be able to do what they promised, and you shouldnt expect it. It might be the time to look to your own house for aid. TauRus (April 20-May 20) -- Those you recruit to help you might make more work instead of easing your load. If you want things done properly, sometimes its better to do the job yourself. GeMInI (May 21-June 20) -- Unless you treat others the way you want to be treated, trying to profit at their expense would lead to losses instead of helping you make any gains.
