U.S.credit rating downgraded


For first time in history,AAA rating drops to AA-plus
By Martin Crutsinger
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Credit rating agency Standard & Poors on Friday downgraded the United States credit rating for the rst time in the history of the ratings. The credit rating agency said that it is cutting the countrys top AAA rating by one notch to AA-plus. The credit agency said that it is making

the move because the deficit reducInvestors tion plan passed by look for answers Congress on after wild week Tuesday did not go See page 18 far enough to stabilize the countrys debt situation. A source familiar with the discussions said that the Obama administration feels the S&Ps analysis contained deep and fundamental aws.

S&P said that in addition to the downgrade, it is issuing a negative outlook, meaning that there was a chance it will lower the rating further within the next two years. It said such a downgrade to AA would occur if the agency sees less reductions in spending than Congress and the administration have agreed to make, higher interest rates or new scal pressures during this period.

The Cellar nightclub in downtown San Francisco was buzzing with energy. There was loud music, people socializing and ashing lights all before noon on a Sunday. It was the day the Bay Area music group The League took over the nightclub to lm the music video for their lat-

est hit Addicted to that 808 featuring the solo artist Nayelli. The video had a simple but tting theme: a party inside a giant speaker. The R&B/hip-hop/rap group is made up of singer/songwriter Allan Iida, 24 and rapper/songwriter Damon Santo, 20, known as Allan I and Hype to their fans. Santo said they chose the name The League because there were other groups from the Bay Area with names like The

Team and The Pack, and Iida said they wanted to make a bold statement. We were like, We want to be better than them, so what does the league do? The league owns teams, Santo said. We want to be the head honchos. The League released Addicted to that 808 July 12, but the song created buzz among DJs for about two months before,

Garden Golf was a popular game played in the early 1900s. Played with a putter on real grass, garden golf followed the rules of regulation golf. *** Miniature golf had a boom when a weatherproof carpet was invented in the 1920s. It created a smooth playing surface and made it possible to build a miniature golf course almost anywhere. *** In the 1930s, there were 150 rooftop miniature golf courses in New York City. *** The first miniature golf franchise was Tom Thumb Golf, which began in 1929. The courses had hazards and obstacles to challenge the players. Entrepreneurs could buy a prefabricated mini golf course for $4,500 and be open for business in six days. ***

maneuver in advance of next years primary season. A proposed rewrite of the California Republican Party platform retreats from opposition to same-sex adoption, domestic partner benets and child custody, avoids any mention of overturning Roe v. Wade and drops a demand to end virtually all federal and state benets for illegal immigrants. Alarmed conservatives say the partys core principles are under assault. Its castrating conservative ideas, said longtime party activist Mike Spence. The proposed changes suggest the Republican Party doesnt believe in anything. The proposed changes come as Washington conservatives have displayed new clout in the budget and debt debate and appear out of step with some ascendant leaders in the GOP who have been pulling the party to the right on scal and social issues. Yet advocates for the changes say the California party needs a makeover its outnumbered in registration and appears poised to lose control of more legislative and congressional seats after a once-a-decade recasting of district boundaries. To them, the platform should be primarily focused on the economy and jobs the top concern for voters. The draft does not erase opposition to abortion rights or support for traditional marriage and gun rights, but it gives them less visibility. The current platform, adopted in 2008, says state guns laws disarm law-abiding citizens and calls for the end to waiting periods to purchase rearms and inclusion of a right to carry concealed weapons in the state constitution.

End of an era for coastal post office?


San Gregorio location on closure list, locals unhappy
By Richard Duboc
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT

Financial difficulty is forcing the U.S. Postal Service to consider the closure of up to 3,700 locations nationwide. While several Peninsula locations are on the list, including South San Francisco and Colma, the potential closure of the San Gregorio location is of particular concern for residents of the small coastal town as it is one of the few businesses left there. If they close, its going to be very upsetting, said Scott H. of San Gregorio, who has had a P.O. Box there for 16 years. All my friends use it. Although the postal service is owned by the federal government, it acts as a revenue generating corporation, said U.S. Postal Service spokesman James Wigdel. This means that a 20 percent decline in mail volume coupled with a complete dropoff of in-store retail sales will almost assuredly force it to readjust in one form or the other. We operate as a business, Wigdel, adding that no taxpayer dollars are used to fund the postal service and that it lost $8.5 billion in revenue last year. For customers of the San Gregorio post ofce, that is exactly where the problem lies. Running on whether or not you have a prot, thats not the way you do it, said George Cattermal who has owned the San Gregorio General Store for the last 31 years. The store leases out the south end of its building to the very small post ofce which houses just over 50 P.O. boxes. Ironically,

RICHARD DUBOC/DAILY JOURNAL

The post ofce in San Gregorio is on the list of locations that may be closed.
Cattermal notes that if the ofce were to close, he would be able to easily rent it out to another business at possibly a higher rate. However, the independent-minded store owner said he is more interested in protecting his community and his most loyal patrons. They should be taking care of the rural people, he said. Kevin Miles of La Honda served as a deputy harbormaster in Half Moon Bay until retiring four years ago. He attests that he knows the inner-workings of government bureaucracy and believes the possible closure of the San Gregorio post ofce as well as a similar location in nearby Loma Mar represents a longstanding neglect of coastal residents by gov-

ernment ofcials. They treat this place like a big recreational park and forget that people live here, said Miles who frequents the General Store and uses its post ofce when passing through. A lot of elderly people use it, they dont use email, its the next generation, he said of people who would be affected if their access to what many now jokingly refer to as snail mail is limited. As the USPS continues to expand its online services, lack of Internet access will become increasingly difcult for those who may be already isolated from the world. It may seem like San Gregorio, a town with no main street to speak of, is a place that has been forgotten by time. A general store has existed there since settlers began arriving in the area around what is now State Route 84 in the 1850s, serving as a place locals could receive and send mail. Originally connected to Redwood City by railroad, it was believed that San Gregorio might possibly become a thriving coastal micro-metropolis. Locals say it is now at further risk of completely disappearing. Surveying his store from its bar as a live band begins to play for his weekend patrons, Cattermal feels less condent that local residents will once again organize and petition U.S. Rep. Anna Eshoo, D-Palo Alto, to keep the store aoat as they have before in the past. Im much more pessimistic this time, he said. Still, postal ofcials said even if the location is closed, delivery service will not be changed. Were doing as best we can, Wigdel said.

FAA shutdown ends


By Joan Lowy
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON With tens of thousands of jobs, more than $1 billion and their reputations on the line, Senate Democrats gave way Friday to a power play by House Republicans in order to end a partial two-week shutdown of the Federal Aviation Administration. With lawmakers scattered for Congress August recess, the consent of only two senators was required to pass a bill restoring the FAAs operating authority through Sept. 16. President Barack Obama signed it into law hours later. But partisan differences remain, and a repeat performance of the legislative standoff could come next month. The impasse had left hundreds of airport construction projects in limbo and idled tens of thousands of construction industry workers as well as nearly 4,000 FAA employees. One of the biggest costs was to the hard-pressed U.S. treasury, which lost about $400 million in uncollected taxes during the two-week standoff and stood to continue losing $30 million a day more than $1 billion in total if there had been no solution before Congress returns from its recess. For most of the stalemate, the nations attention and that of Congress was riveted on the debt crisis nally tackled this week. But that quickly shifted. Lawmakers were getting calls about unnished airport towers and construction companies

The public can attend or watch on either the city website or Comcast Cable TV channel 26. *** Paul G. McCarthy has been certied to run for the Redwood City Council in November. He joins incumbent Ian Bain in having his signatures certied.

in dire straits at home. Some unemployed workers found their way to Capitol Hill to complain. Democrats had been holding firm against the House legislation on FAA operations because it proposed cutting air service subsidies to 13 rural communities. In short, they feared getting steamrolled on similar legislation in the future if they gave Republicans their way. For example, spending authority for federal highway programs expires Sept. 30, another possible point of contention. But once the focus fell away from the deal to avert a federal debt default, Democrats began to waver and nally gave up the ght. Republicans achieved the subsidy cuts in the nal law but with a major caveat. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood has the authority to continue subsidized service to the 13 communities if he decides its necessary. Obamas signature means the nearly 4,000 furloughed FAA employees can return to work as soon as Monday. Work can also resume on more than 200 airport construction projects. This impasse was an unnecessary strain on local economies across the country at a time when we cant allow politics to get in the way of our economic recovery, Obama said in a statement.

The San Mateo County Community College District will consider placing a bond measure on the November ballot at its meeting next week. The board meets 6 p.m., Aug. 10 at the District Ofce Board Room, 3401 CSM Drive, San Mateo.

NASA begins L trip to Jupiter


By Marcis Dunn
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. A sun-powered robotic explorer named Juno is rocketing toward Jupiter on a fresh quest to discover the secret recipe for making planets. Hundreds of scientists and their families and friends among thousands of invited guests cheered and yelled Go Juno! as the unmanned Atlas rocket blasted into a clear midday sky Friday. It will take ve years to reach Jupiter, the solar systems most massive and ancient planet. Next stop is Jupiter, exulted Scott Bolton, Junos principal investigator and an astrophysicist at Southwest Research Institute in San Antonio. Its fantastic! said Fran Bagenal, a planetary scientist at the University of Colorado at Boulder, who is also part of the NASA project. Huge relief all around. Within an hour of liftoff, Juno hurtled out of Earths orbit at 24,000 mph on a roundabout course for Jupiter. It was expected to whip past the orbit of the moon in half a day, or early Saturday morning. It is the rst step in Junos 1.7 billion-mile voyage to the gas giant Jupiter, just two planets away but altogether different from Earth and next-door neighbor Mars. Juno is solar powered, a rst for a spacecraft meant to roam so far from the sun. The three huge solar panels popped open an hour into the ight, each one stretching as long and wide as a tractor-trailer. Previous spacecraft to the outer planets have relied on nuclear energy.

School Central, located in Redwood City, was participating a journalism project with the Public Broadcasting System News Hour Extra, UNICEF and IEARN. Working with teacher Tania Magana and Gabriel Lomelli, Peter Pheap, Diego Pettersen and Diana Ramirez of the Boys and Girls Club of the Peninsula, the students have developed a newsletter and a webcast to report the news on a local, national and international level. Completion of the project provides the students with certification as a Youth MD6 Reporter. In addition, four other students from Community School Central participated in the Adobe Youth Voices project that is sponsored by the U.S. Department of Education in support of President Obamas initiative to increase the number of college graduates by the year 2020. In collaboration with staff from the San Francisco AYV site, the Oakland Peapod AYV site and the Redwood City Peapod AYV site, the students created a music video entitled Vision 20/20. The song they wrote describes what families, schools and communities can do to help young people succeed in school. The

Syria claiming progress

High school solar project delayed


Solar panels at three high schools Burlingame, Capuchino and Mills were scheduled to go live July 1, just in time for the sunniest times of year. Getting the system up and running is crucial to the San Mateo Union High School Districts ability to generate power rebates. This years budget calls for $800,000 in revenue from such rebates. But the panels are not yet in use as the district and Pacic Gas and Electric debate a disconnect switch. All the panels are laid out, ready to go, but until we can get onto the grid and give energy back to the grid we cant generate rebates, said Elizabeth McManus, deputy superintendent of business services. The issue is the disconnect switch. Solar panels dont necessarily turn off as nature creates the power. PG&E, however, needs to be able to turn it off should work on the schools electrical system need to be completed, Project Manager Todd Lee explained. It allows the company to be sure solar-generated power doesnt backll the area someone is working on elsewhere and possibly electrocute a worker.

San Carlos considering new school


Could a two-story school at Laureola Park solve the enrollment issues at San Carlos schools? Maybe, but its only one of many options that will be studied by the school district and City Council. San Carlos Elementary School District ofcials say they must add capacity because of the growing number of children at all sites. How the space will be added needs to be studied. At a joint meeting between representatives of the school board and City Council Tuesday morning, the idea of partnering was raised. The two entities are entertaining the idea of creating a facility master plan to meet both the citys need for park space as well as the school districts need for educational space. The [school] board has not made a decision, but we dont see any option that doesnt include more space, said Superintendent Craig Baker. Assistant City Manager Brian Moura said the city could use its parks facility master plan as a jumping-off point for the conversation. Maybe, through sharing land, the two groups could nd solutions, he said.

BEIRUT Syrias government proclaimed Friday that it was succeeding in crushing the uprising in the city of Hama, the epicenter of anti-regime protests, showing TV images of burned buildings and rubble-strewn streets. Under a suffocating siege, residents of the city warned that medical supplies were running out and food rotting after six days without electricity. Across the country, tens of thousands of protesters marched through cities, chanting their solidarity with Hama and demanding the ouster of President Bashar Assad. They were met by security forces who opened re, killing at least 13 people, activists said. Their numbers were lower than previous Fridays, when hundreds of thousands nationwide turned out for protests likely because this was the first Friday in the holy month of Ramadan, when Muslims fast from dawn until dusk and go outside less, particularly in the summer heat. That could augur disappointment for protest leaders, who had hoped to escalate the uprising during the month and even mark a turning point in the quest to topple the 40-year Assad family dynastys rule. Government forces began their siege on Hama on Sunday, cutting off electricity, phone services and internet and

blocking supplies into the city of 800,000 as they shelled neighborhoods and sent in ground raids. It appeared to be an all-out attempt to take back the city which has a history of dissent after residents all but took over, barricading it against the regime. Rights group say at least 100 people have been killed so far while some estimates have put the number as high as 250. The tolls could not be veried because of the difculty reaching residents and hospital ofcials in the besieged city, where journalists are barred as they are throughout Syria. Tanks shelled residential districts starting around 4 a.m. Friday, just as people were beginning their daily fast mirroring a round of bombardment the evening before at sunset when they were breaking the fast, one resident told the Associated Press. If people get wounded, it is almost impossible to take them to hospital, the resident said by telephone, speaking on condition of anonymity for fear of retaliation.

Peace Corps condemns alleged abuse by volunteer
NEW HAVEN, Conn. The Peace Corps said Friday that a former volunteers alleged sexual abuse of young girls in South Africa is reprehensible and the agency supports the vigorous prosecution of the case. Thirty-one-year-old Jesse Osmun of Milford was arrested Thursday in Connecticut on federal charges of sexually abusing children at a center in Greytown, which helps AIDS victims. Authorities say Osmun molested ve children under the age of 6, some multiple times, and gave them candy during a period between 2010 and this year. Mr. Osmun is charged with a shocking breach of the power entrusted to him as a Peace Corps volunteer, Assistant Attorney General Lanny Breuer said upon Osmuns arrest.

Seven years for fatal crash


A highly intoxicated driver whose 2009 crash into another vehicle on Devils Slide killed a 32-year-old Italian tourist and injured her American hosts was sentenced to seven years in prison Tuesday for what even the defense called an absolute tragedy [that] could have been avoided. Thomas Harold Randall, 53, received just shy of the sevenyear, eight-month maximum he faced after pleading no contest in April to gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated and driving while under the inuence. Prosecutors say on Aug. 9, 2009 Randall drank beer and vodka all day in Pescadero before driving on Highway 1 and plowing into a Ford Escape carrying Paola Casara and three others. His blood alcohol level was .27.

NEW ORLEANS A federal jury on Friday convicted ve current or former police officers in deadly shootings on a New Orleans bridge after Hurricane Katrina, a high-profile victory for the Justice Department in its push to clean up the citys troubled police department. The case was a high-stakes test of the effort to rid the police department of corruption and brutality. A total of 20 current or former New Orleans police ofcers were charged last year

in a series of federal probes. Most of the cases center on actions during the aftermath of the Aug. 29, 2005, storm, which plunged the flooded city into a state of lawlessness and desperation. Sgts. Robert Gisevius and Kenneth Bowen, Officer Anthony Villavaso and former ofcer Robert Faulcon were convicted of civil rights violations in the shootings that killed two people and wounded four others on the Danziger Bridge less than a week after the storm. They face possible life prison sentences.

The African famine


Chicago Sun-Times

Other voices
In southern Somalia, where the UN declared a famine on July 20, millions are at risk, with scores dying daily. The famine is expected to spread, with drought also gripping Kenya, Ethiopia and Djibouti. The UN estimates at least 10 million people in this corner of East Africa need immediate food assistance. Among the most vulnerable are 2 million young children. As the images of emaciated toddlers stream out, their

t is tempting to look at the stories of famine from the Horn of Africa a region experiencing its worst drought in 60 years and think nothing can be done. Cycles of drought and famine repeat in East Africa, perpetuated by conict, rising food prices and dysfunctional governments, leaving an outsider wondering if its even worth trying. It is.

ribs protruding over concave bellies, its time to act, even if the next crisis is just around the corner. The real solutions to avoiding famine developing a functioning government and agricultural sector are elusive. This is particularly true in southern Somalia, where al-Shabab, an Islamist insurgent group, is largely blamed for the famine. Its preventing aid workers from entering and imprisoning starving Somalis who are trying to ee. But that is no reason to turn away.

What its all about P

Letters to the editor


Not art
Editor, I am disappointed in the choice for the rst public art for San Carlos (Time for art: City considers public display in the Aug. 2 edition of the Daily Journal). First, it is not really art; it is a decorative ornament. A clock on top of a kiosk? What an unimaginative public art choice, which could have and should have been something of a higher level of art achievement. What could have been an aesthetic civic accomplishment of really good public art has been reduced to barely anything at all: a clock-crown of leaves costing over $12,000 (Perhaps even a unique clock tower would have been better. One of contemporary design, steel, concrete or stone?) dren would get considerably less than a like-sized family with a father 10 years my junior. Nevermind that my contributions had matched every one of those from the other father, plus an additional 10 earlier years of maximum contributions. When I asked how such inequity could exist, I was told that it was an insurance policy. When I asked how I might cancel this insurance policy they suggested that I be serious. I am serious. As a candidate for U.S. Senate in 1982, I delivered a speech to the Republican Convention in Monterey (see: http://hickeyforsupervisor.com/CAPP/db ltree.htm) in which I said: Social Security, which ostensibly is an insurance program, conscates more than $4,000 per year from the average young American family. This loss of income makes home ownership an obscure dream and the housing industry suffers. Thats a crime! Today, it is a bigger crime which exacts more than $10,000 per year from many families. far from the clinic and El Camino Real would have been very dangerous for their employees to cross. The parking spaces should be on the same side and close to the clinic. Now Planned Parenthood has said they have an ongoing dialogue with Enterprise and that they are working with other businesses to nd alternative parking. Well, I can assure you that no other business in that area will offer them nine parking spaces. They know that if they do, there will be protesters in front of their business with signs and graphic posters. This is not blackmail, but only a friendly warning for them not to get involved with Planned Parenthood for the good of the neighborhood. Planned Parenthood has a location in Mountain View which is a 15-minute drive from the Redwood City site. They also have another clinic in San Francisco which is less than a 30-minute drive. Why do they want to saturate the whole Bay Area with their clinics that cause so many problems?

The truth about Social Security


Editor, It is not clear from Ken Hickmotts letter, The lies about Social Security in the Aug. 1 edition of the Daily Journal, whether he supports it or not. No matter. From my own experience, I can provide a truth about Social Security. In the early 70s, with a wife, ve children and a challenging lifestyle, I had occasion to query the SSA regarding the benets my children would receive in the event that fate rendered them fatherless. I suggested to the SSA that since I had paid the maximum into the system during my years of employment, that the benets should be the maximum. Their response was that it would be based upon my age. The bottom line revealed that my chil-

The truth about the Tea Party


Editor, I am appalled that you published a patently incorrect opinion about our president with an advertisement to visit a Tea Bagger website. The Tea Baggers, created and designed to destabilize the government, are funded exclusively by Koch Industries, the worlds largest air polluter. Their immediate goals are to discredit our president while defunding and dismantling regulations that protect us from them. Dixie cups, Brawny Paper Towels, Vanity Fair Tissues, Georgia Pacic paper products and Lycra are their products that you can choose to avoid as a local action with global effects.

Another setback for Planned Parenthood


Editor, I was happy to hear that Planned Parenthood has not met their deadline to conrm their nine off-site parking spaces with Enterprise Rent-a-Car (Planned Parenthood permit in question in the July 30 edition of the Daily Journal). It is very obvious that the contract was incomplete because two signatures were needed. In my own opinion, the off-site parking should not have been accepted by the Redwood City Zoning Commission in the rst place because of its location, which is across the street on El Camino Real. The location would have been too

olitical, economic and social changes do not happen at random. There are historical patterns and, if one is able decipher them, it is not difcult to predict those events. For example, philosophers such as Friedrich Hegel recognized that for any human initiatives, there are corresponding reactions, even over long spans of time. So what we are witnessing, now, in the struggle among national leadership, is an ongoing reaction to the vast shift in governmental responsibilities that emerged from the human tragedies of the Great Depression, and had continued uninterrupted until the dawn of the Reagan administration. Another philosopher, Gottfried Leibnitz, caused us to recognize that events in the world are like a vast complex of interlocking gears and if one gear is moved there is a whole chain reaction of other gears that shift in human affairs. What appears manifestly logical, such as saving during hard times, may be extraordinarily counterproductive in a consumerdriven economy. For example, there is a current concern about the government being too large and spending too much. But the gears that move by reducing such spending leads to a vast loss of government jobs, which then throws those employees onto the private sector job market and creates a concern whether that sector will even be able to absorb them all. Further, there is such a desperate need to repair our aging national infrastructure, especially in road and bridges, that require programs to correct that no private economy could possibly afford. Such a government program would absorb a huge number of the jobless, as did the Hoover Dam during the Great Depression. But such programs are being thwarted by conservatives as they almost accomplished with their opposition to the Tennessee Valley Authority in 1933, the power grid which did more to bring the economy of the Southern states into the 20th century and into national wealth than any private enterprise could ever afford to initiate. Also, the irritation of conservatives about extended unemployment benets, remove unemployed from the consumer market, the lifeblood of our American economy, an ongoing demand that would help to bring the two and a half trillion dollars on the sidelines in the hands of the wealthy back into an extended economy that would create new jobs. Cuts to Social Security and Medicare take more dollars away from the economy. Even welfare subsidies bring more demand. A political economist even suggested a negative income tax feature to help the economically disadvantaged to keep the dollars and demand owing. The historical developments of the past 30 years that have kept dollars bubbling up to the those wealthy few at the top has created the greatest wealth gap since the 1920s, innately counterproductive because there are less dollars for the economically disadvantaged and the middle class to spend. In my view, one of the only valid policies that George W. Bush ever expressed to the nation during a recession was: Spend, spend, spend! I described before, in my mind, historically, there have been two broad economic movements in our national polity, the Darwinists and the Bleeding hearts. The Darwinists, who embrace the survival of the ttest theory, look to the business community rst and the devil take the hindmost, no matter how the built-in bust cycles sorely affect the economically disadvantaged. And the bleeding hearts are those who try to build safety nets to keep those damned aoat during such bleak times. And, despite opinions to the contrary, Im not a spokesman for any political party. I confess only to just being a plain-old, shopworn, selfdeluded bleeding heart and support any candidate from any party who shares that weakness. For the past 80 years, it has been the bleeding hearts who have been prevailing most in that struggle while the Darwinists have been regularly trying to reverse all that legislation of the past. The fact is, as I have expected, they have been nibbling at the defenseless on the edges of the safely net and dont dare push to reduce the elephants in the economy: Social Security, Medicare and the military. They social programs are the third rails that could assure political defeat for them in the 2012 elections, as those are jealously guarded by the elderly, the ones who are most sure to vote. Which explains why U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wisc. took such a whacking from the elderly when he introduced a voucher system proposal for Medicare. We are still the wealthiest nation in the world and only appear nancially bankrupt because new revenue and government-sponsored jobs have been blocked. Who will win out in the end depends upon how hard the middle class is willing to ght to retain what it has gained in the past 80 years. And, I am not taking any bets on which will win in the 2012 elections.

motor of global growth for three years, are slowing. Brazilian stocks have dropped nearly 30 percent since Nov. 4 as the country tries to stem inflation. Manufacturing in China shrank in July for the first time in a year. In Europe, debt problems are spreading, threatening Italy and Spain, the continents third-and fourth-largest economies. In the U.S, a possible debt default was averted earlier this week, but concerns remain. Chief among them: less spending by consumers, which is leading to anemic growth by both manufacturing and service companies and too few new jobs to lower the unemployment rate significantly. Investors also worry that the federal government is more likely to hurt the economy than help it. Instead of more spending, the government is trying to reduce its budget deficits by spending less. Randy Warren, chief investment officer at the investment company Warren Financial Service, said markets were jittery over how leaders in the U.S. reacted to the debt crisis here and how leaders in Europe have reacted to the growing debt problems there.

Big movers
Stocks that moved substantially or traded heavily Friday on the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq Stock Market: NYSE Fluor Corp.,up $2.52 at $57.11 The engineering and construction company beat analystsexpectations when it reported its second-quarter earnings. CF Industries Holdings Inc.,up $5.07 at $146.66 The fertilizer producers second-quarter earnings beat estimates and it quadrupled its quarterly dividend to 40 cents.

NEW YORK If you looked away Friday, you missed a market rally. Or a plunge. A soothing government report on employment in July eased concerns that the U.S. might slide back into a recession, and the Dow Jones industrial average rose as much as 171 points soon after trading began. But fears that Europes growing debt crisis might threaten U.S. banks and the fragile economy ruled Friday. After its early rise, the Dow fell more than 400 points and was down 243 just before noon. Then it rose nearly 400 points in less than an hour and was up 135 points. The rest of the day, the blue-chip stock index bounced up and down, sometimes by as much as 100 points in less than half an hour. It ended the day up 61 points, or 0.5 percent.

Google, Microsoft goes public with spat


By Barbara Ortutay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Tech heavyweights Microsoft and Google are acting like a couple of feuding starlets in a public online spat over wait for it patents. Its not the rst time Microsoft and Google have gone at each others throats, nor is it likely the last. But with Twitter and blog posts, the dispute is playing out in public in a way that wasnt possible in 2005, when lawsuits over an employee Google hired from Microsoft revealed the bitter rivalry between the two. Now, Google is accusing Microsoft, Apple and others of launching a hostile organized campaign against its Android operating system, which runs smartphones that compete with iPhones, BlackBerrys and Windows-based mobile devices. At issue are thousands of patents from

Novell Inc., a maker of computer-networking software, and Nortel Networks, a Canadian telecom gear maker that is bankrupt and is selling itself off in pieces. Last month, a consortium that includes Microsoft Corp., Apple Inc. and Research In Motion Ltd. prevailed over Google Inc. with a $4.5 billion cash bid for the Nortel patents. Google lost out after a strange bidding process that included what published reports said was an offer for a billion times the mathematical constant pi. Their response seems to be to whine about the process, technology analyst Rob Enderle said. Enderle was referring to a scathing blog post by Google Chief Legal Ofcer David Drummond, who wrote on Wednesday that Microsoft was banding with others to acquire bogus patents to make sure Google cant get to them. They want to make it harder for manufacturers to sell Android devices,

Drummond wrote. Instead of competing by building new features or devices, they are ghting through litigation. Not so fast, says Microsoft, which brought the feud to Twitter. There, Microsofts communications chief, Frank Shaw, posted an image of an email from Googles general counsel, Kent Walker, declining to join Microsoft in the consortium to bid for the patents. The email was sent to Microsofts own general counsel, Brad Smith, who also chimed in. Smith wrote to his 2,000-plus Twitter followers that Google says we bought Novell patents to keep them from Google. Really? We asked them to bid jointly with us. They said no. Shaw offered a reason in another Twitter post: Why? BECAUSE they wanted to buy something that they could use to assert against someone else. Enderle says its no secret that Microsoft and Google dont like each other.

Man accused of mass spamming on Facebook


By Louise Chu

SAN FRANCISCO A Las Vegas man accused of sending more than 27 million spam messages to Facebook users faces federal fraud and computer tampering charges that could send him to prison for more than 40 years, according to a grand jury indictment. Sanford Wallace, the self-proclaimed Spam King, pleaded not guilty during an initial court appearance Thursday after being indicted July 6 on six counts of electronic mail fraud, three counts of intentional damage to a protected computer and two counts of criminal contempt.

The indictment led in San Jose federal court said Wallace compromised about 500,000 Facebook accounts between November 2008 and March 2009 by sending massive amounts of spam through the companys servers on three separate occasions. Wallace would collect Facebook user account information by sending phishing messages that tricked users of the social networking site into providing their passwords, the indictment said. He would then use that information to log into their accounts and post spam messages on their friends Facebook walls, the indictment said. Those who clicked on the link, thinking it came

from their friend, were redirected to websites that paid Wallace for the Internet trafc. In 2009, Palo Alto-based Facebook sued Wallace under federal anti-spam laws known as CAN-SPAM, prompting a judge to issue a temporary restraining order banning him from using the website. The indictment alleges he violated that order within a month, prompting the criminal contempt charges. The judge in the lawsuit ultimately issued a default judgment against Wallace for $711 million, one of the largest-ever anti-spam awards, and referred him for possible criminal prosecution.

Wells Fargo reaches $590 million Wachovia settlement


By Eileen AJ Connelly
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Wells Fargo & Co. on Friday said that it has agreed to pay $590 million to settle a class-action lawsuit led by investors in Wachovia securities. The settlement would end a suit led in 2008 in federal court in Manhattan, charging that Wachovia misled investors in its bonds and preferred securities by understating losses associated with risky

mortgages. Wells Fargo bought Wachovia that year at the height of the nancial crisis. The San Francisco-based bank said in a regulatory ling with the Securities and Exchange Commission that the deal needs court approval before it takes effect. Investors said in the suit that Wachovia repeatedly claimed that its mortgage loans were made with high underwriting standards and a conserva-

tive approach to lending. But they claimed that after the bank bought Golden West Financial Corp. in 2006, it started using that banks riskiest practices. That included companywide adoption of Golden Wests Pick-A-Pay mortgages, which gave borrowers options on the size of their payments, including an option for minimum payments that did not cover monthly interest, but instead added to the principal on a loan.

Little Giants offense, Phils run win streak to 8


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Philadelphias Shane Victorino and San Franciscos Ramon Ramirez and Eli Whiteside all were ejected after benches cleared in the top of the sixth inning of the Phillies 9-2 victory over the San Francisco Giants on Friday night. Tempers ared after Ramirez hit Victorino in the back with a pitch. Victorino began walking toward the

mound and Whiteside, the catcher, stepped in front of him. Placido Polanco raced in from second base and was tackled by Whiteside. These teams have become quite the rivals of late after the Giants beat the favored Phillies in six games of the NL championship series last fall on the way to capturing the franchises rst World Series since moving West in 1958. John Mayberry Jr. hit a two-run homer for his second clout in as

many games and Vance Worley (8-1) won his sixth straight decision as the Phillies ran their winning streak to a season-best eight games. Victorino and Hunter Pence also homered for the majors-best Phillies, who havent lost since the Giants took two of three from them last week. San Francisco has dropped seven of eight during the same span. Giants rst baseman Aubrey Huff was in the middle of the scrum and Phillies leadoff man Jimmy Rollins

shoved San Francisco bench coach Ron Wotus as they exchanged words. Victorino pushed plate umpire Mike Muchlinski trying to get back into the fray, then was held back by Wotus and Phillies hitting coach Greg Gross. The umpiring crew met for several minutes once things settled down, then made the ejections. Philadelphia led 8-2 at the time, then Pence homered for the second straight night in the seventh.

Whiteside hit a solo homer in the fth for the Giants before being tossed the next inning. Worley allowed two runs on seven hits, struck out six and walked one in seven innings, beating the Giants for the second time in three starts after tossing a three-hitter on July 26. Giants starter Jonathan Sanchez (4-6) lasted 4 2-3 inning in his return from biceps tendinitis that landed him on the disabled list for 36 games.

Buchanan captures title

Money players make money shots in highstakes situations. Menlo Schools Andrew Buchanan got the chance to prove he is such a player during the 11th hole in the nal round of the America Junior Golf Association Open Championships Thursday afternoon. Buchanan, an incoming junior for the Knights, came into the nal round with a comfortable 8-shot lead after shooting a 67 and 69 in days one and two of the tournament But come the 11th hole on the nal day, that cushion had dwindled down to a pair of shots following back-to-back bogies on nine and 10. I was a little frustrated after that, Buchanan said. But I was on the 11th tee and there was a lot of water on the right and the wind was really blowing to the right, he said, adding that he then chose to continue to be aggressive with his irons, reached into his bag and pulled out the 3. I hit a good shot and I ended up getting really close to the cup that was nice. Nice is an understatement. The move to go with the 3-iron proved to the difference. Buchanan not only eagled the hole, but he took that momentum and rode it to a threeshot win his rst victory in the AJGA Open Championships. Its this win and his ability to be clutch that

Quakes forward teams up with Street Soccer USA

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

STANFORD, Calif. The future of American sprinting may well lie in Texas, where Jimmy Feigen is the latest in a long line of speedsters to come out of the Longhorns program. Olympian Garrett Weber-Gale won the 100meter freestyle in 48.87 seconds Friday night at the U.S. national championships, defeating Texas training partner Feigen, who took second at 48.99. Scot Robison was third at 49.06. Feigen led after the rst lap before WeberGale surged from third to rst down the stretch. I have no endurance so the only way I have a chance is to go out fast, Feigen said. Im all about the y and die, I cant change my strategy now. I was happy with the place, not so happy with the time. In the 50 free a day earlier, Feigen was second behind Nathan Adrian and Weber-Gale was third. I love the fact that Jimmy and I did so well in the freestyles, Weber-Gale said. I want the Texas guys to always come out on top.

Weber-Gale has taken his 21-year-old teammate under his wing, giving him a pre-race pep talk before the 50. Hes smart about everything he does, Feigen said. Its kind of nice to get that oldschool knowledge and experience. Hopefully some of it will rub off on me. Weber-Gales time was slower than his 100 split of 48.33 in the 4x100 freestyle relay at the world championships. In Shanghai, he was slowest of anyone on the Michael Phelps-led U.S. relay, which took bronze. He blamed himself for the Americans upset loss to Australia. That really bothered me for several days. I felt sick about it, I felt embarrassed about it, Weber-Gale said. I guess everyone has an occasional swim like that. (Coach) Ed (Reese) says thats the kind of thing that happens once in a long while and youll never make that mistake again. Jason Lezak, the 35-year-old Olympian, and Adrian withdrew from the 100, both still recovering from the world meet.

The San Jose Earthquakes announced yesterday Wondolowski was named the National Ambassador for Street Soccer USA (SSUSA), an organization that teaches life and job skills to the homeless. The Quakes forward Chris will serve as the lead Wondolowski spokesman for SSUSAs efforts to rehabilitate the homeless. Wondolowski will be most heavily involved with Street Soccer USA-Bay Area, although he is expected to make appearances

nationwide. He has also pledged a $50 donation for each goal he scores during the remainder of the 2011 MLS campaign. The Earthquakes will also match Wondolowskis donation to bring the total to $100 per goal for the remainder of the season. I realize every day how lucky I am in every facet of my life, Wondolowski said via press release. I am blessed to be able to play professional soccer and the fact that I can play here in my hometown is beyond incredible. I could not be more excited about this opportunity to work with the Cann brothers and the entire SSUSA organization. With the help of the Earthquakes and Soccer Silicon Valley we hope to make a signicant contribution to SSUSA. What was amazing was that Chris reached out to us, said Rob Cann, Bay Area director for Street Soccer USA.

Prime Time for Hall of Famers


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

49ers CB Rogers eager for change


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CANTON, Ohio Deion, Marshall and Shannon. Three players who could get by with only their rst names, and soon to be known as Hall of Famers. Deion Sanders, Marshall Faulk and Shannon Sharpe (of course) will be inducted into the Pro Football shrine Saturday night. Sanders and Faulk were slam dunks in their rst year of eligibility. Joining that trio will be Richard Dent, Chris Hanburger, Les Richter and Ed Sabol. Sanders was one of footballs most versatile and entertaining players, earning the nickname Prime Time. According to Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, he also was a phony. Deion was a fraud a fraud, OK? Jones said. He wanted it to look easy, but he was a hard worker. He would give just enough at practice to be a team player in strength and conditioning, but when he went home he worked like a dog on his strength. He wanted everyone to think he was a natural. He was, but it wasnt only because he was born like that. He worked. Deion Sanders The teams Sanders played for generally worked their way into the playoffs. In 1994, he joined the 49ers and helped them win the Super Bowl. The next year, he was headed to Dallas, helping the Cowboys win their third title in four seasons. Deion was Prime Time, Neon Deion, always that ashy player that everybody wanted to be, said Mike Jenkins, the Cowboys cornerback who now wears 21. He always stood out and he let it be known that he was one of the best. He definitely made it exotic to play cornerback. Faulk wasnt quite so exotic. He was just as formidable, though, retiring with 12,279 yards and 100 touchdowns rushing, another 6,875 yards and 36 TDs as a receiver. His dominance in an 12-season career, the rst ve with Indianapolis, the last seven in St. Louis, earned him election to the hall over two other running backs who became eligible for the rst time in 2011. Both Curtis Martin and Jerome Bettis rushed for more yards than Faulk, yet fell Marshall Faulk short of enshrinement. People make a big thing about going in on the rst ballot, but its really more about getting in, Faulk said. They dont give you a target to shoot at. In baseball, you know what you have to do to make the Hall of Fame. In football, you start off, you dont really know what you have to do to make it. Theres no If you break these records as a tight end, youre going to get in or Shannon Sharpe would have got in his rst year. Thats hard to do. Sharpe retired in 2003 and missed out on making the hall in his rst two years of eligibility. He compiled 10,060 yards receiving and 62 touchdowns, monstrous numbers for a tight end, and won three Super Bowls two with Denver, one with Baltimore.

SANTA CLARA Carlos Rogers needed a change. The veteran cornerback is in the right place for that with the San Francisco 49ers, who are making big changes this summer on a defense that has lost ve starters. Rogers is in a Carlos Rogers position to ll one of those voids, but thats not the only thing that convinced him to start fresh on the opposite end of the country after spending his rst six NFL seasons with the Washington Redskins. I wanted something new, an environment that is not (revolving) around superstars and whos the next player coming to the team, Rogers said Friday. I needed a change out of Washington and just wanted a group of guys willing to work and get better. This team is hungry, and the attitude of this team, I want-

to improve on the teams No. 24 nish in the NFL rankings last year in passing defense. Guys are willing to work here, and everybody is on the same page, Rogers said. The whole team is being put in a new system where everybody has to learn. All of us together are helping each other out. Once we get on that same page, well all be equal. Rogers has landed in a duel with fthyear veteran Tarell Brown for the starting cornerback position opposite Shawntae Spencer, who has started 32 consecutive games for the 49ers at left cornerback. Its already shaping into one of San Franciscos closest competitions for an open starting job. Brown started four games in 2009 and punctuated San Franciscos season-ending blowout of Arizona in January with a 62-yard interception return for a touchdown. He has been practicing with the rst unit since training camp began and sees an opportunity to remain there with the new coaching staff. Brown doesnt expect that to change now that Rogers has arrived.

Brady ready to stop talking and start playing


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. Tom Brady is ready to stop talking about football and start playing some football. And thats usually bad news for NFL defenses. The reigning NFL MVP, who turned 34 on Wednesday and is in his 12th season, said he and his teamTom Brady mates didnt have a chance to watch the signing of the new

collective bargaining agreement on TV on Friday morning. But the reaction was unanimous. Its a great day for the NFL, he said. It was exciting news when we all got the word that it had been ratied and all the players got a chance to practice yesterday afternoon. We just want to play football. Thats all weve really wanted to do and we have the ability to do that now. Many are pointing to the Patriots continuity this is Bradys 12th season with the same coach, Bill Belichick, and the same system as a reason New England should come out of the blocks could be benecial to them and could help them better serve their clients, Cann said. Then we also had everyday soccer fans and people who love the game who saw the power of sports step forward in their community and say they wanted to be a part of it and so we brought those groups together, trained them in our curriculum which is transferring these job and life skills through sports, he said. Its a situation where it is effective. We work with well-respected social service agencies across the country and they see the power of what this type of outlet can do for folks, Cann said. SSUSA attempts to unite those who have hit a major snag, using participants and volunteers to transform a homeless persons environment. Participants are asked to set three-, six- and 12-month life goals and SSUSA empowers participants by providing access to services plus educational and employment opportunities through things like job academies.

fast this season. But Brady said there was much work to be done in a short time. The learning curve has to be so fast, he said. You cant come out here and have a bad practice. You dont have many of them. There have been several recent events that have buoyed Bradys spirits, including the signings of veteran offensive linemen Matt Light and All-Pro Logan Mankins and rst-round draft pick Nate Solder. The continuity we have over the years (on the offensive line) has been great, he said. What it really boils to is, homelessness is a symptom of a breakdown in community, Cann said. Folks that are homeless are isolated and dont have a support structure thats there for others. So, what we say is that ghting homelessness is a team sport, because what were doing is building that positive community in peoples lives where it doesnt exist. What were about really is creating trusting relationships with people, where youre playing soccer together, getting to know someone and then surrounding them with people who care about them and can help them and create a path back to reach their goals, Cann said.

thats what happened. Were thrilled that he wants to be a part of what were doing. Street Soccer USA works with the homeless in 20 cities across the country and, according to Cann, 75 percent of participants connect to jobs, housing or further education within a year of play. The program builds community and trust through soccer while empowering participants to set goals and transform their lives. SSUSA has experienced tremendous growth since its inception in 2007. By 2008, the program had expanded to 10 cities then, in 2009, 16 places had adopted the program.

Mullin impressed with GS As fall to Tampa Bay

Toronto on June 8, 2010. He was really good, Maddon said. Niemann struck out eight and walked one. Crisp cut the Oakland decit to 4-2 with a two-run homer in the sixth. Tampa Bay responded with three runs in the bottom half of the inning when Ben Zobrist drove in a pair on a single and B.J. Upton added a run-scoring single. Upton also had an eighth-innng RBI triple. Matsui hit a solo shot and Pennington had an RBI triple in the ninth. The Rays took a 1-0 lead on a bases-loaded RBI grounder by Robinson Chirinos that deected off Guillermo Moscoso with one out in the fourth. The Rays rookie catcher has driven in seven runs over his last three games after having none in his rst 11 big league games. Moscoso (4-6) gave up four runs and six hits in 4 2-3 innings. I thought his stuff was pretty good and he looked like he hit a wall, Melvin said. Oakland right fielder David DeJesus, slowed by right thumb soreness, returned after missing the previous three games. He struck out with a runner on second with two outs in the fourth, and wound up 1 for 4. NOTES: The Rays have scored at least seven runs in three straight games for the rst time this season. ...

Raiders sign TE Boss


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NAPA Free agent tight end Kevin Boss signed a $16 million, four-year contract with the Raiders on Friday. The deal includes $8 million in guarantees. Oakland had been looking for a tight end ever since Pro Bowler Zach Miller spurned the team that drafted him and instead signed with the Seattle Seahawks on Tuesday. Boss, who caught 119 passes with 18 touchdowns in four seasons with the New York Giants, gives the Raiders a 6-foot-6, 235-pound downeld target. He also won a Super Bowl ring with New York in his rookie season. Hes smooth, said quarterback Jason Campbell, who played against Boss Giants teams while Campbell was with the Washington Redskins. He has a lot of experience. We understand he knows what it takes to get to the next

level, and what its going to take for us to get to the next level this year. The Raiders brought in Boss for a workout Wednesday and signed him after restructuring contracts to get under the salary cap. He did not join the team at its training camp facilities on Friday but coach Hue Jackson expects Boss to be on the eld soon. I expect to get him here as soon as we can, Jackson said. Weve got work to do. There are quite a few things in our offensive system that a young man needs to do and he showed those characteristics on video tape. Miller led the Raiders in receptions each of the past three seasons and was the teams player rep during the labor dispute. He expected to return to Oakland but was wooed to Seattle by former Raiders coach Tom Cable, who is the Seahawks assistant head coach and offensive line coach.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. Jeff Niemann had no problem with being pulled one out away from a complete game. Niemann took a four-hitter into the ninth inning en route to winning his fth consecutive decision and the Tampa Bay Rays beat the Oakland Athletics 8-4 on Friday night. Niemann (6-4) allowed four runs and seven hits over 8 2-3 innings, and had the night end when his pitch count reached 119 and manager Joe Maddon went to the bullpen. The righthander was replaced by Kyle Farnsworth after giving up a pair of runs and three hits in the ninth. Its tough, you know, Niemann said. Joe gave me every chance possible, I think, to nish that game. It just wasnt in the cards. Niemann improved to 5-0 in eight starts since returning from a strained lower back on June 20. Evan Longoria and Casey Kotchman both had run-scoring doubles, and Matt Joyce hit an RBI single in the fth that put the Rays up 4-0. After losing nine of 12, Tampa Bay has now won six of eight. I think our players are really starting to believe again, strongly, Maddon said. Its kind of a nice vibe. Coco Crisp and Hideki Matsui homered for the Athletics, who have lost 30 of their last 37 games away from home. Oakland entered hitting an AL-low .232 on the road. We gave ourselves some holes on the road that we have to comeback from and its not a great recipe for success, Oakland manager Bob Melvin said. Athletics shortstop Cliff Pennington was back in the starting lineup after missing two games because of Bells palsy and tripled in four at-bats. He left Mondays game against Seattle because of the condition that can cause partial facial paralysis. Niemann has won all three of his career starts against Oakland. He was looking for his rst complete game since a two-hitter against

I started putting my approach shots close and made a lot of five-footers for birdie on the back, Buchanan said. Really, my iron play was solid on the back nine. I played a lot of shots close. It denitely gave me condence because theres a lot of water on that golf

course, to know that my swing was going good on the rst day was a condence booster for the rest of the week. It made me think that I could play well. Actually, Buchanans condence began to rise before he started the tournament. A couple days before, with my coach, I gained condence, so going into the tournament I felt good. I had a good practice round the day before. I had pretty high expectations but to be able to win wasnt my main concern. I just wanted a good solid nish to end the summer on the junior circuit.

New generation of Americas Cup yachts set sail


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CASCAIS, Portugal The latest generation of Americas Cup yachts is ready to set sail in a competition promising speed, stealth and uncertainty. The rst of three World Series events in 2011 begins Saturday off the Portuguese coast in Cascais. A new class of catamarans will streak though the Atlantic at speeds of up to 30 mph. The World Series is essentially a training exercise for the Louis Vuitton Cup, where boats will try to become the designated challenger to defending champion Oracle Racing in the Americas Cup, the oldest competition in international sports.

Both cups will be raced in 2013 from July to September in San Francisco. At Cascais, seven challengers from six nations are looking to give Oracle cause for concern. The nine-day event marks the rst stage on the way to San Francisco, where the American syndicate will defend the Auld Mug trophy. The AC45 wing-sailed class boats are 44 feet long, 71 feet high and sailed by a team of ve. They are a prelude to the massive 72-foot long multihulls that will be used come San Francisco. From a racing standpoint its going to be brutal at times. But thats part of the growing pains it doesnt come without hiccups, Emirates Team New Zealand skipper Dean
SAT SUN

Barker said Friday. These are so high-tech that when they are pushed to the limits thats where you can see mistakes. The fast cats, as Americas Cup organizers label them, certainly present a big jump for the competition, with Energy Team skipper Loick Peyron coining turbo engine feel to describe the new series. While Americas Cup sailing has been called Formula One on water before, the changes involve more than speed. Its quite physical, the boats are unbelievably high performing its just a new lease on life, Artemis skipper Terry Hutchinson said. What were getting ready to embark on here is something weve never
MON TUE WED THU FRI

seen before. Oracle Racing is the overwhelming favorite. It enters the series having made the most of technology to beat Alinghi in a one-off series against the Swiss in February 2010. The courts forced the pair to race after a long-running feud stemming from the Americas Cup in Valencia, where Alinghi beat Team New Zealand. Alinghi abandoned the Americas Cup after losing the title. At Cascais, Oracle Racing has brought two crews, for boats 4 and 5, just as it will in 2013 when it must train on its own while the challengers duel for a spot in the nal. Despite the technological advantage, Oracle Racing No. 5 skipper Russell Coutts knows the boats are

difcult to handle. His boat capsized in June, and the Kiwi skipper fell nearly 23 feet into the water. You have to get everyone up to speed as quick as you possibly can because you know that someone will get hurt. Its not a matter of if someone is going to get hurt but when, Hutchinson said. So everyone on the team has to be on pace with the boat to step in. Changes are apparent in Cascais marina, where temporary structures house the teams during this traveling roadshow: Green Comm Racing of Spain; Team Korea; China Team; French pair Aleph and Energy Team; Emirates Team New Zealand; and ofcial challenger of record, Artemis Racing.

Host Colombia tops group at U-20 World Cup
BOGOTA, Colombia Host Colombia asserted its claim to being among the favorites to win the Under-20 World Cup, defeating South Korea 1-0 on Friday to nish atop its group with a perfect record. Colombia finished with nine points in Group A, ahead of France, which defeated Mali to clinch second place with six points, with South Korea advancing as one of the best third-place teams with three points. Mali was eliminated. Two other teams advanced on Friday to the round-of-16 knock-out stage. Portugal defeated New Zealand 10 to win Group B, ahead of Cameroon, which had four points after a 1-0 victory over Uruguay. The loss eliminated Uruguay, a nation that had become accustomed to tournament success in recent times. Group play will wrap up on Saturday with Australia facing Spain and Ecuador playing Costa Rica in Group C. In Group D, Saudi Arabia will play Nigeria to decide rst and second, while Croatia is against Guatemala. Thirteen teams are already through to the round of 16: Colombia, France, South Korea, Portugal, Cameroon, Spain, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, Brazil, Egypt, Argentina, Mexico and England. Luis Muriel scored for Colombia in the 37th minute. Muriels goal came after a mistake by South Korea keeper No Dong-geon, who raced off his line for a loose ball in the area, but was beaten to it by Muriel who recovered and scored into the empty net with No stranded.

Whelan said at a news conference. A concept like EFLI presents a huge opportunity and the perfect platform for brands to get visibility and reach out to their potential customers. The league plans to add eight more teams during the second year and four in each subsequent season until 2022. By then, the league would have 52 teams representing all Indian cities with a population in excess of 1 million. American football is the latest sport to set up a pro league in India following the success of crickets multimillion dollar Indian Premier League. Football, volleyball and the indigenous game of kabaddi have already started leagues while field hockey, wrestling, tennis and badminton are among those in the works. The EFLI is confident of finding a niche despite being new to the country. We felt that India didnt have enough games or sport to watch on television and thus see a huge potential here, Whelan said We are training coaches from athletics, volleyball and wrestling and hope to be ready for the first season in time. He said the new league hopes to capitalize on the success of Indias victory in this years cricket World Cup on home soil. Its very fortunate that India has this cricket history because with the World Cup as the catalyst, all eyes are on the world of sport, he said. The EFLI will invite 600 companies to attend an orientation program to discuss strategy for long-term business affiliation. The league hopes to attract not just corporate backing but also support from the army, city municipalities and political parties. We will definitely have a pay structure in place soon. We will put up our complete business module in a month or so, Whelan said. Organizers plan to work with the Indian government to develop the first governing body for the game, similar to the Board of Control for Cricket in India. They will also use playing fields owned by the government. All of the games in the first season will be played in the western city of Pune at the government-owned Sports Authority of India center. Organizers said they would share 15 percent of their revenues with Indias sports ministry.

Sports brief
Haas, Huston take early lead at 3M Championship
BLAINE, Minn. Jay Haas often looks at the scoreboard during his round. What he saw with four holes to play Friday wasnt the most pleasing number. Coming off back-to-back bogeys after missing short putts, Haas birdied the nal four holes en route to an 8-under 64 to share the lead with John Huston after the rst round of the 3M Championship. Haas also recorded an ace during his round. He made a 30-foot putt at No. 15 to start his strong nish. That was huge because Id gone back to 4-under and I was a little disappointed to be only 4-under at that stage because I played pretty well, Haas said. Id been playing beautifully. I was frustrated that Id given two shots back, but at the same time I felt if I kept playing this way Im going to get some more chances. He hit a wedge to about 5 feet on No. 16, and a 6-iron to about 15 feet on No. 17 to set up more birdies. Haas settled for birdie on the par-5 No. 18 after two-putting from about 10 feet. It was a very, very eventful day, Haas said.

MUMBAI, India India, a country with a passion for the genteel game of cricket, is about to get a taste of the rough and tumble sport of American football. Organizers announced plans Friday for the Elite Football League of India, an eight-team pro league made up of Indian players and coaches that will open next year in this country of more than 1 billion people. The league said investors include former Green Bay Packers linebacker Brandon Chillar, an American of Indian descent, former Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Ron Jaworski, Hall of Fame wide receiver Michael Irvin of the Dallas Cowboys and Hall of Fame tight end and former Chicago Bears coach Mike Ditka. The inaugural season is to run from November 2012 to February 2013.

Fight for food in Mogadishu leaves seven dead


By Abdi Guled and Katherine Houreld
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MOGADISHU, Somalia A World Food Program handout of corn rations to Somalis trying to survive a famine turned deadly Friday after government troops opened re, killing at least seven, witnesses said. Residents of Mogadishus largest famine refugee camp accused government soldiers of starting the chaos by trying to steal some of the 290 tons of dry rations that aid workers were trying to distribute there. Then refugees joined in the scramble, prompting soldiers to open re, the witnesses said. They red on us as if we were their enemy, said refugee Abidyo Geddi. When people started to take

the food then the gunre started and everyone was being shot. We cannot stay here much longer. We dont get much food and the rare food they bring causes death and torture. The chaos underscores the dangers and challenges of getting help to a nation that has been essentially ungoverned for two decades and now has a severe famine sweeping through it. There are 9,000 African Union soldiers in the capital, but their main mission is to ght alQaida linked Islamists, not safeguard humanitarian aid. Aid workers are puzzling over how to help the starving without helping gunmen who either prey on the refugees, compete for security contracts to guard the food, or steal it and take a share of the prots when its sold at market.

The situation echoes the 1992 famine that prompted deployment of a U.S.-led multinational force to safeguard the delivery of food to Somalias starving. That international intervention collapsed in 1993 after two U.S. Black Hawk helicopters were shot down and 18 servicemen were killed in one single battle in Mogadishu. U.S. and U.N. ofcials acknowledge that some aid in Somalia is bound to be stolen during delivery. Will there be losses? Sure. Will there be some looting? Of course there will be. What we have to do is try to minimize it, said WFP spokesman David Orr. This is the highest risk environment in the world ... the safety of our staff and getting food into the right hands are our highest priorities.

that time. The Standard & Poors 500, a broader measure of the market, nished just under 1,200, down a fraction of a point. It was the Dows worst week since March 2009, down 5.8 percent. The S&P, down 7.2 percent, and the Nasdaq composite index, down 8.1 percent, had their worst weeks since November of that year. The gain of 117,000 jobs for the U.S. economy looked even better considering that 37,000 public jobs disappeared during the month. Most of those were from a temporary government shutdown in Minnesota. Subtracting those government layoffs, the private sector added 154,000 jobs for the month. And the economy added 56,000 more jobs than rst thought in May and June. Workers were paid more, too. Average hourly wages showed the biggest monthly gain since 2008. More jobs and better pay means people have more cash to spend, helping the economy grow. And manufacturing companies added 24,000 jobs, which suggests that the supply disruptions caused by the Japan earthquake may be almost over. Makers of cars and other products found themselves short of parts after the disaster. All told, the gures suggested a slower-growing economy but not one on the verge of a new recession, as some had feared. Some economists were impressed that the economy managed to add more than 100,000 jobs in a month when companies feared the government might default on its debt. Congress and the White House struck a deal with hours to spare. Other economists noted that corporations remain highly protable, stocked with cash, and can hire when needed. Theyre waiting for customer demand to come back in force. The economy is still too weak to produce the 250,000 new jobs a month that it takes to bring down the unemployment rate quickly. The rate has been above 9 percent in every month except two since the Great Recession ended in June 2009. Other recent data show the economy struggling. In June, consumers cut back term decit reduction plan and avoided a default on the countrys debt. After months of wrangling and negotiations with the administration, Congress passed this week a debt reduction package at the 11th-hour that averted a possible default.

The weakness has raised pressure on the Federal Reserve to take further steps to support growth. After they meet Tuesday, Fed policymakers could make clear that short-term interest rates will stay low indenitely. But analysts say the Fed probably wont signal any new action. The July job gains ranged broadly across industries. Retailers, factories and health care rms were among the many sectors that added workers. President Barack Obama used the jobs report to press Congress to extend a Social Security tax cut enacted this year that put an extra $1,000 to $2,000 in most workers pockets. Obama also called for a renewal of emergency unemployment benets, which provide up to 99 weeks of support. The tax cuts and extra benets are scheduled to expire at years end. Economists have cautioned that the end of the two programs could weaken growth in 2012. Economists arent expecting much improvement this year. Tom Porcelli, chief U.S. economist at RBC Capital Markets, foresees growth at a modest 2.4 percent annual rate in the last six months the same as he did before Fridays jobs report. These numbers are not great, Ian Shepherdson, an economist at High Frequency Economics, said in a note to clients. But they are a long way from recession territory.

He plans to keep doing so for the next year to year and a half. Business clients pay Schneiders rm to look over their bills and nd savings. The company keeps a cut.

Investors looking JOBS for answers after unnerving week


By Dave Carpenter and David Pitt
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

A nerve-wracking week punctuated by the biggest stock market plunge in three years has left investors with more questions than answers and considerably less money in their portfolios. Is the plummet in the Dow Jones industrial average of 10 percent since late July a short-term blip or a precursor of whats to come? Will investors who didnt inch, even during Thursdays 513-point drop, be rewarded for their perseverance or punished for not selling before the market gets worse? Most importantly, what should they do now? Concerns over the debt deadlock in Washington that brought the government to the brink of default were then overtaken by increasing evidence of anemic U.S. and global economic growth. Now economists are talking about the increased chances of another recession, though not imminently. Thats left many individual investors unnerved. It all adds to the overall uncertainty, the nervousness. You just really cant count on anything, said Jeff Hawkins, 52, of Gainesville, Va. Hawkins, a security director, and his wife, Jo, have most of their portfolio in stocks. He still believes stocks are the best way to invest in the long run, and he has decided to hang on rather than sell. But that faith is being sorely tested. The wild swing in the markets following a report that the unemployment rate declined in July, underscored just how jittery investors are. After shooting up 171 points, the Dow tumbled into triple-digit-loss territory for the third time this week before yoyoing back to close the session with a 61-point gain. The most important thing for people to do right now is to take a deep breath, whether youre reacting to the latest, pretty good job numbers or youre still in shell shock from everything else weve learned in the last week, said Jerry Webman, chief economist at Oppenheimer Funds in New York. Consider how far stocks have climbed from their lows following the 2008 nancial meltdown. The broader Standard & Poors 500 index is still up 77 percent from its bottom in March 2009, although its still 23 percent off the all-time high set in 2007. Investors, though, have been focusing more on the economic turmoil. And many are selling stocks or piling into cash and presumed safe havens like U.S. Treasury bonds and gold. Trading volume in the 401(k) accounts that Chicago-based human resources rm Aon Hewitt monitors reached $857 million Thursday, more than twice the normal volume on a typical day. Aon Hewitt, which tracks the accounts of 4.7 million workers, said the assets moved almost exclusively out of stocks and into xed income investments stable value funds, bonds and money market funds. Dan Nainan, 30, sees plenty of reasons for long-term optimism. Hes not touching his $120,000 in stock holdings and is shrugging off the daily drumbeat of bad nancial and economic news. Theres a lot of the sky is falling mentality out there, said Nainan, a standup comedian from New York City. People see in the media that everyones dumping stocks, and then they do it. Theyre acting as if the worlds going to collapse. It doesnt make sense.

unemployment rate, to 9.1 percent. But the jobs number beat the forecast of economists, who were expecting no more than 90,000. And it was an overwhelming relief for investors, who just lived through two of the most brutal weeks in Wall Street history. Nothing to pop Champagne corks over, said Diane Swonk, chief economist at Mesirow Financial, but a muchneeded shot in the arm for condence at a time when we have so little. But when they come back on Monday, investors will have to absorb another body blow: Late Friday, ratings agency Standard & Poors downgraded the United States debt for the rst time, saying the governments debt-reduction plans fall short. The downgrade could lead to higher interest rates and further hamper the economic recovery. The Dow Jones industrial average nished Friday with a gain of 60.93 points and closed at 11,444.61. It made up only a small fraction of the losses from Thursday, when the Dow dropped 512, its worst since the nancial crisis of 2008. Friday was not exactly quiet for the market, either. At the start of trading, investors were thrilled with the unemployment report, and the Dow rose 171. Ten minutes later, the gains were gone. Investors focused on Europe, which is struggling to keep Italy and Spain from being consumed by a growing nancial crisis, and the Dow fell 243. The fear was that they had no plan to deal with the situation, said Randy Warren, chief investment officer at Warren Financial Service. Later in the day, Italy promised to work toward a constitutional amendment to balance its budget. It was trying to calm investors around the world, who are worried that nancial problems are spreading in Europe. The Dows gain was only its second in the past 11 trading sessions.

Change-Upip-flops between raunch, sweetness

The Change-Up begins with a poop joke. And not just any poop joke this is projectile poop from a baby girl into her daddys mouth during a bleary-eyed, middle-of-thenight diaper change. Oh yes, it goes there. Early. Youd think that would be a frightening harbinger of whats to come over the next two hours, but its not which makes it even more frustrating when you realize that it didnt need to startle us off the top in such crass and obvious fashion. There was potential here. When youve got Ryan Reynolds and Jason Bateman two masters of deadpan improvisational comedy bouncing off each other, you should theoretically just be able to let the cameras roll and follow them wherever they take you. With a screenplay from Jon Lucas and Scott Moore, who wrote The Hangover the clever, original Hangover, that is, and not the lazy sequel you should already be in pretty good shape. But the overlong lm from David Dobkin (who also directed Wedding Crashers and, unfortunately, Fred Claus) is all over the place in tone, veering awkwardly from some daring comic moments to feel-good sappiness and back again in hopes of redeeming some semblance of edginess. Its as if The ChangeUp is trying to say, Just kidding! We didnt mean to be so sappy and square. Well, maybe we did, just a little. Whatever you guys like best. Learning lessons is what body-swapping movies are all about. The grass is always

Summers comedy king Bateman wants to direct


By Sandy Cohen
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES In Horrible Bosses and The Change-Up, which opens Friday, Jason Bateman plays a hardworking guy who loves his job but yearns for something new. In real life, Bateman is an actor with three decades of experience who loved starring in two fun summer comedies but really longs to direct. The 42-year-old stands to be the seasons comedy king with his two R-rated icks coming out just a few weeks apart. In Horrible Bosses, he plays Nick Hendricks, a management candidate so frustrated by his twisted supervisor that killing him seems like a good idea. In The Change-Up, Bateman is Dave Lockwood, an attorney about to make partner who loves his wife and two kids but envies the no-responsibility lifestyle of his best friend, played by Ryan Reynolds. One drunken night, the two buddies talk about switching lives with each other, and the next day discover that they have changed bodies. Bateman talked with the Associated Press about his big comedy summer and deep

desire to direct. AP: What drew you to The ChangeUp? Bateman: Its the R-rated version of the body-switching movie. No ones ever done that. And who better to write that than the guys who wrote The Hangover and who better to direct it than the guy who did Wedding Crashers, so its really an all-star execution of this kind of funny. From an acting standpoint, its every actors dream to be able to play two sides of the coin, Jekyll and Hyde, or what have you. In this case its sort of the conservative guy to the philanderer. So I sent e-mails to the studio, to (director) David Dobkin. I really, really, really wanted this. AP: Was the experience everything you hoped it would be? Bateman: It was more than what I wanted it to be... Fortunately, my instinct on how to play the character really matched everybodys expectations about how the character would be played so it was just very simple all the way through, and the end result is something Im incredibly proud of. Im pretty condent that people are going to really,

Edie Kiglatuk is an unlikely sleuth. In the rst place, what kind of mystery could need solving on her chunk of ice and rock in the Canadian Arctic? Besides, it would take a lot to stir up this quiet little woman. Edie would rather be hunting than poking her nose into the business of her fellow Inuit and the qalunaat, or white people, who hire her as a guide. Other times shes at home with a cup of hot tea watching a Buster Keaton or Charlie Chaplin movie on DVD and chewing a slice of fermented walrus gut. White Heat, M.J. McGraths solid rst novel, begins when an Edie-led trek goes wrong and a qalunaat ends up dead. She knows the ofcial nding of a self-inicted gunshot is bogus but is willing to let it go to maintain a sense of peace and privacy in her tightknit community. Later, another death raises questions that her conscience, and the spirit world around her, wont allow her to ignore. Edie struggles with more than the puzzling events at hand. In spite of her hunting skills, she is viewed warily in what is traditionally a mans profession. Her personal demons, including alcohol and depression, are common to Inuit. A mercurial ex-husband is at the center of the complicated relationships in her thirtysomething life. And all this in a world in which 10 degrees below zero is almost balmy and death is as close as a blizzard or a stretch of thin ice. McGrath is a London-based journalist who has written nonction about the Inuit, a native Arctic people once commonly called Eskimos. She weaves a strong strand of whodunit into a broader story about life in a 21stcentury community on Canadas Ellesmere Island. The plot is wholly satisfying, and McGraths portrait of a culture that uneasily blends yesterday and today is engrossing on its own merits. The Arctic is a big place big enough, one hopes, for Edie Kiglatuk to nd another mystery that needs solving between warm bowls of seal blood soup fresh from the microwave.

FLEMING SINGS BORGIA. Soprano Rene Fleming, one of the most acclaimed artists and celebrated musical ambassadors of our time, returns to San Francisco Opera after an absence of ten years for the Company premiere of Donizettis melodically rich bel canto masterpiece Lucrezia Borgia. Borgia, a femme fatale renowned for her ruthless pursuit of power, reveals poignant vulnerability when she comes face to face with her long-lost son. Fleming will be joined by mezzo-soprano Elizabeth DeShong (Mafo Orsini), tenor Michael Fabiano (Gennaro) and bass Vitalij Kowaljow (Alfonso dEste), led by conductor Riccardo Frizza. This Washington National Opera production, created for Fleming, marks the Company directorial debut of John Pascoe. HEART OF A SOLDIER. On Saturday, Sept. 10, the eve of the tenth anniversary of the World Trade Center attacks, the San Francisco Opera presents the World Premiere of Heart of a Soldier. What makes a hero? The question was never an academic one for Rick Rescorla, a British-born adventurer who fought in Vietnam before settling in New York as head of security for a brokerage rm based in the World Trade Center. On Sept. 11, 2001, his extraordinary courage and calmness in a crisis paid off: Rescorla led all of the 2,700 people under his care to safety literally singing them down the stairs before heading back into the burning building for one last check. He never emerged. To commemorate the tenth anniversary of the devastating terrorist attacks, San Francisco Opera honors Rescorlas extraordinary life. CARMEN. Thrilling but dangerous, the captivating, capricious Carmen is one of the most vivid characters in all of opera. Mezzo-soprano Kate Aldrich stars in the title role in this classic San Francisco Opera production of Bizets Carmen by Jean-Pierre Ponnelle, conducted by Nicola Luisotti. Tenor Thiago Arancam is Don Jos, the man who unwisely falls under Carmens spell. Baritone Paulo

Mammoth Cave tours reveal subterranean wonders


If you go
MAMMOTH CAVE NATIONAL PARK, Ky. Blasts of cool air offered a welcome reprieve from the scorching summer as a tour group descended into the depths of the worlds longest-known cave. Some visitors donned light jackets for the long hike past panoramic scenes of subterranean wonders. Heading underground at Mammoth Cave National Park is a sure way to escape the dog days of August. The celebrated cave that has lured the curious for thousands of years remains a temperate 54 degrees year-round. Its the rst time Ive been cool in I dont know how long, said Sarah Hyatt, who traveled from Maryland to marvel at the massive limestone formations with her parents and her 8-year-old daughter. Each year, about 700,000 people take the short trip off Interstate 65 to visit Mammoth Cave, with the peak time coming in summer. In winter, the caves temperate climate gives it a balmy feel, said that was certainly a career restart for me, a reidentication of who I am and the kind of thing that I do, the kind of humor that I do. So, understandably, those are the kind of roles that come my way. But the more chances I get to play characters like Mitch in The ChangeUp and if people like that character and the movie is well received, maybe Ill start getting roles that are a little more left of center, a little more obtuse, and any actor loves to mix it up. (That said, though, Bateman says hed be up to reprise his Michael Bluth character should the anticipated Arrested Development lm move forward. He had no update on the movies status other than to say creator Mitch Hurwitz was in negotiations about the project.) AP: You write, direct and act. Which is (Leslie Mann), with whom he has a sweet, 5year-old daughter and a couple of adorable, 2year-old twins. But he misses spontaneity and fun. His childhood best friend, Reynolds deantly single Mitch Planko, spends his days doing bong hits in his man cave. Sometimes, he goes out on auditions for commercials. At night, he beds as many random women as possible. But he longs to have someone to come home to, to feel loved and secure. One night, after too many drinks (which is also how Batemans character got into trouble in Horrible Bosses), Dave and Mitch relieve themselves in a fountain. Each park spokeswoman Vickie Carson. Tours cater to a range of visitors, from hardy adventurers to those looking for lessstrenuous outings. One tour suited for small children, the elderly and others who cant walk long distances covers a quarter-mile and includes just a dozen stairs. Other tours cover four to ve miles and put participants through vigorous workouts. On the popular Historic Tour, visitors take a winding two-mile hike that leads them some 310 feet below the surface. Its not a stroll in the park. Participants have to chug up and down 440 stairs. Wide walkways leading into expansive rooms give way to belly-scraping paths that take a serpentine route through the rock. For adults, theres stooping to maneuver past low rock ceilings and sideway squeezing to slip through a narrow passage in a part of the cave known as Fat Mans Misery. Theres a steep climb up a stairway at a majestic part of the cave known as Mammoth Dome. your favorite and why? Bateman: Writing, thats super hard but is very gratifying when you nish. Acting I nd the simplest, probably just because Ive been doing it a long time and its very gratifying. But, really, directing is the job I would most like to do because it would allow me to exercise all the things that Ive learned all these years. Its just ultimately much, much more challenging and Im at a place in my life where Im just very eager to challenge myself more. Im not feeling lazy or lethargic or that I want to wind things down. Im more ambitious than Ive ever been and feel more excited to contribute creatively than I ever have. Directing is denitely the position you want to ll on the set if you want to contribute fully. AP: Do you have a directing project coming up? insists the other guy has the better life. When they wake up the next morning, poof! Theyve switched bodies, which leads to some predictable but amusingly executed sh-out-ofwater scenarios. Mitch, as Dave, uses sheer bravado to navigate the uptight law firm where Dave is on the verge of making partner. Dave, as Mitch, gets an unexpected booty call late one night from one of Mitchs wild ings. As an actor, Bateman gets the better end of the deal here: Hes got Reynolds wild child trapped inside of him, so he gets the showier part. Reynolds has a fearlessness when it comes to physical comedy but hes got Batemans rigid, conservative character stuck in his body. Except for one scene in which Dave-as-Mitch makes a light porno lm (or a lorno, as they call it), he doesnt get as much How are those hour-long aerobic workouts working for you now, Hyatt asked her mother as visitors huffed their way upward. Dim lighting woven along points in the cave revealed a fascinating look at the tapestry of rock formations during the two-hour excursion. At one point, tour guide Nick Asher let visitors experience the cave in its purest form. He told them that on the count of three, they would be enveloped in darkness. On count one, they should close their eyes, he coached them. On count two, he would cut off his lantern. On count three, they should open their eyes. And if youre afraid of the dark, just skip count three, Asher advised. When the group opened their eyes, the only audible responses were wow. This is total and complete darkness were feeling down here, Asher said as visitors soaked in the feeling of being completely cut off from the world above. And the cave is one of the only places on earth where you can experience total silence. Bateman: Were irting with a few but its a tough thing to schedule. Its almost like trying to schedule doing a play. You have to commit way out in advance and that commitment is usually about a 12-month commitment. Im a very, very lucky boy right now that Im getting invites to participate in projects as an actor from some people that I respect and admire greatly, so its tough to pick and choose and to block out the time to do the directing, although theres nothing Id rather do. So dont be surprised if I disappear for 12 months and go off and direct something. AP: So whats next for you? Bateman: Were very close on a couple of things, but I cant say anything about them yet. Things look to remain busy, thank God, because I do love to work. of an opportunity to let loose. Olivia Wilde is sexy and charismatic no surprise there as the law associate Dave secretly lusts after and gets to go on a date with inside Mitchs body. Its nice to see The Change-Up esh her character out and give her some brains and personality, rather than letting her be eye candy as so many maledominated comedies might have. Its enough to make you wish the rest of the lm had taken the high road. We wont trouble you with a description of what happens to Manns character after too much Thai food. The Change-Up, a Universal Pictures release, is rated R for pervasive strong, crude sexual content and language, some graphic nudity and drug use. Running time: 112 minutes. Two stars out of four.

Miranda Julys whimsical Future Whistleblower paints


By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Rachel Weisz too saintly


By David Germain
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Ask me if Id like to see a precious movie that includes a narrating cat, a talking moon and a heroine that greets her boyfriend in the morning with Hello, person, and I will likely leave in my wake a wisp of smoke and a Roadrunner-shaped hole in the cinema wall. But whatever the precocious leanings of Miranda Julys The Future, the lm resonates primarily for its journey away from simple, irritating quirk, and toward originality of a more substantial kind. The Future, the second lm of director-writer-actor and performance artist July following 2005s Me and You and Everyone We Know, ultimately wins you over with its persistent curiosity. It matches glances at commonplace details with the tug of metaphysical confusion. The movie begins with the voice of a cat named Paw-Paw (voiced by July). In a scratchy, fragile voice, it wonders, Have you ever been outside? Rooted to their sofa and tethered to their laptops, the earnest, thirtysomething couple Sophie (July) and Jason (Hamish Linklater) treat outside as merely an option worth avoiding, like non-Apple products. Lounging next to each other, the two, both lanky and topped by shaggy dark hair, look like mops carelessly stored. In Los Angeles, Sophie teaches dance and Jason gives IT support by phone. Theyre planning to adopt Paw-Paw, but have to wait a month. This acceptance of responsibility (something of a furry stand-in for a child) sets off an early midlife crisis. By their anxious calculations, their lives will soon begin deteriorating. After 50, Jason says, its just loose change. Regret is massing; he says, I always

Theres a childlike sense of wonder, but its the adultness of The Future that makes it rise above.
thought Id be smarter. Faced with the onset of cat ownership (which is to say, death), they resolve to live the month like their last. They quit their jobs and, terror of all terrors, cut the Internet. Another movie, from here, might go on to celebrate maintaining a childlike naivety through adulthood, of rising above the mundane with whimsy. But in The Future, whimsy stands little chance against times relentless march. Jason begins volunteering for a tree-growing charity, Tree-by-Tree, and goes door-to-door for donations. He meets an old man, Joe (Joe Putterlik, also the voice of the moon), whose thoughts on life both peculiar and wise attract him. Joe advises that Jasons alarmist sense of time is off: Youre just in the middle of the beginning right now. Sophies chosen path is to create a daily YouTube video with a new dance. But her body is unable to contort to the hip-hop moves that go viral, and her boredom turns to an unlikely love interest (David Warshofsky). The father of a young girl and a factory-owner, hes emphatically more normal than Sophie and perhaps thats his appeal. These mixed results of Sophie and Jasons self-enforced trial is shown in variously mystical expressions: The moon talks, an emotionally signicant T-shirt travels on its own and Jason attempts to stop time. The dreamy music by Jon Brion adds to the sad, enchanted tone. These magical flourishes come alongside more prosaic observations, like the feel of a couchs felt. Theres a childlike sense of wonder, but its the adultness of The Future that makes it rise above. July, with her Chaplin eyes, perhaps knows too well how to play earnest and smart. But The Future feels progressively less adorned, even as it grows more magical. Hardship, fear, anxiety and death set it, and narcissism burns away. New worlds are explored, even if theyre just down the street. Pain proves far more preferable than utter stasis. Its a fancy feast. Cut the talking cat, next time, though. The Future, a Roadside Attractions release, is rated R for some sexual content. Running time: 91 minutes. Two and a half stars out of four.

The post-war Bosnia drama The Whistleblower earns high marks for its humanitarian intentions and for Rachel Weiszs steely performance as an American cop-turned-peacekeeper who exposes a sex-trafcking ring. Its a movie that sancties rather than satises, though. The featurefilm debut from director Larysa Kondracki is an oppressive sermon whose players are almost all wicked beyond contempt and whose hero is so saintly that an endorsement for canonization would not be out of place among the preachy text codas that conclude the movie. Grim as the subject matter is, Kondracki crafts a taut, technically skillful thriller, making the blackand-white storytelling from her and her co-writer Eilis Kirwan all the more disappointing. Yes, men who participate in smuggling and imprisonment of young women as sex slaves are scum who deserve far more than castigation by proxy in a movie dramatization. But The Whistleblower lacks the sort of subtlety needed to make the drama credible and, frankly, watchable. Viewers dont need to sympathize in the slightest with the bad guys, but the villains do have to be something more than the snarling, sneering animals presented here. Likewise, theres little nuance written into the character of Kathy Bolkovac, though Academy Award winner Weisz manages to infuse her with depth and temperament even as the script supercially casts her as some sort of superhuman do-gooder. The Whistleblower is based on the actual experiences of Bolkovac, a former Nebraska cop who served as story consultant on the movie. The story opens in 1999 as Weiszs Bolkovac takes a job with DynCorp,

a private contractor recruiting police monitors for the United Nations mission to restore order in Bosnia after the war. Bolkovac quickly discovers that the local police and their international advisers turn a blind eye to illegal trafcking of women to work in sleazy brothels. Worse, she begins to suspect that the authorities are active participants and her own colleagues are among the best customers. The movie plays out as almost a single-handed crusade by one woman against ruthless, innumerable swine. The movie does toss in Vanessa Redgrave as the compassionate head of the U.N. humanrights ofce in Sarajevo and David Strathairn as a sympathetic internalaffairs investigator, but pretty much everyone else Bolkovac encounters is a caricature of maliciousness. (A note of neutrality blandness, really is provided by Monica Bellucci in a tiny, robotic role as a stonefaced, by-the-book bureaucrat). Director Kondracki puts together some suspenseful sequences and delicately handles nasty moments of sexual abuse and other violence against the captive prostitutes, many of them still girls. Yet for nearly two hours, the tone lurches from gloomy to unsavory to despairing and back to gloomy. Like Erin Brockovich or Norma Rae, The Whistleblower aims to showcase how one dogged individual can expose institutional evil. But those lms were great dramas with complex, full-blooded characters at their core. The Whistleblower is a one-note affair that offers glimpses of the rich, broad life Bolkovac clearly lives but deies her into someone inaccessible and unbelievable. Even Hollywoods comic-book superheroes have their little aws and peccadilloes, but this woman drawn from real life doesnt.

808
Continued from page 1
said Jake Azevedo, the groups manager and Chubby Greens record label president. The number of stations playing the song have gone from 12 or 13 to about 80 in the past few weeks alone, Azevedo said, and even some places outside the United States are picking it up. Chubby Greens managing partner Danielle Germain, co-director of the Addicted to that 808 video, was the creative mind behind the idea. An 808 is a type of bass and she thought it would be cool to do a music video about a party inside a big speaker. Its not The Leagues first video, but Iida said its their biggest so far. They hope it will help break them out of the stereotype that all music from the Bay Area is part of the hyphy movement.

In the spotlight
Their first hit L.O.V.E was released in November 2009, putting the group in the spotlight for the first time. Santo and Iida agreed the best experience so far was last years Knowledge is Power School Tour where they spoke to kids about who they were and what they do better than performing for a thousand people, Santo said. It hasnt always been smooth sailing. Producer Clayton William was introduced to the band two and a half years ago by their official deejay Tommy Wheeler, or DJ Maniakal. The League joined Chubby Greens in January 2010 after Wheeler introduced them, William said. Thats when Azevedo and Germain got directly involved, William said. Their music wasnt a genre that Azevedo had a background in and Iida said it took some convincing to get Azevedo to originally take them on. It was a blessing on both sides, Azevedo said. We kind of rebuilt the whole concept in the creation behind The League we had to go backwards a little bit and start over as far as the imaging and website. At first, The League was making high school pop music but developed to appeal to the club scene. Iida and Santo have had the opportunity to meet or get the support of artists theyve listened to and admired Iida said theyve collaborated with one of his idols Silkk the Shocker. Now The League is performing and doing meet-and-greets around the Bay Area, and next month will go on a radio tour with Nayelli to visit regions where Addicted to that 808 is being played.

Getting together
Iida and Santo came together to form The League in summer 2009. They are both originally from the Bay Area, and were recording their own music at the same Sunnyvale studio. They decided to collaborate and Santo said theyve become best friends. Santo said hed always liked writing and eventually got into writing lyrics in high school. Iida started singing at the end of high school. Santo said he and Iida pull elements from many different musical genres to make their own. Iida said he and Santo mold each other Santo listens to more hip-hop and he is a big fan of country and R&B. Iida graduated from Notre Dame de Namur University in 2009 with a degree in communications, and Santo, originally from South San Francisco, graduated high school in 2008. Santo said their families response to their music ambition was get a real job. But that didnt stop them and they both said their families will support them soon enough. The people who arent in this industry will never understand, Iida said. They will never understand the struggle, they will never understand the value of what we do. Its more than just making music, theres a business involved with it too.

EP on the way
Theres no release date for the groups next album yet, Azevedo said. However, Iida said The League recently released three new songs and a new EP is on the way. The League has been compared to other groups like the Far East Movement or the Black-Eyed Peas, Santo said, but he doesnt think they sound like other groups at all. Iida said people will see soon that theyre not trying to follow in anyones footsteps. You want to keep growing you never want to feel like youre comfortable, said Iida. Our goal as artists that we want to showcase is that you can pop in a CD by The League and listen to every single song. School ofcials say the group were chaperoned by a teacher and an aide in accordance with the districts 10 to one ratio policy. The juveniles all belonged to an optional newcomers class for students whove been in the country less than one year. Redwood City Elementary School District didnt disclose if the students involved in the crime were separated from the others as part of the program or left the larger group on their own. Parents of the involved students were notied by phone and met with law enforcement. Parents of other Kennedy students were notied through a letter. The district launched an internal investigation of the specic incident and overall safety policies for eld trips. Citing condentiality of staff and students, district spokeswoman Naomi Hunter said she cannot disclose details of the investigation. The eld trip policy is still being reviewed and the school board will be discussing it at an upcoming board meeting, Hunter said. Thats a pretty big deal, Jensen said. Energy upgrades are improvements that work together for a whole house solution, incorporating heating, cooling, plumbing and all other components. The programs basic upgrade includes seven required measures, estimated to save approximately 10 percent of energy and carrying rebates up to $1,000. The advanced upgrade requires a combination of customized improvements achieving 15 percent to 40 percent in energy savings and bringing anywhere from $1,500 to more than $4,000 in rebates. Interested homeowners can learn more at EnergyUpgradeCA.org or the San Mateo County website www.co.sanmateo.ca.us. Questions can also be sent to EnergyUpgrade@co.sanmateo.ca.us or 7625440.

ASSAULT
Continued from page 1
said prosecutor James Wade. The sentence echoed that of two boys who admitted the same crime in late July while a third who admitted sexual battery received 60 days. The boys will also be ordered into counseling, Wade said. A fth boy has not settled his case and is scheduled in October for a pre-trial hearing on an undisclosed matter. The boys are 13 and 14, according to prosecutors, but their names are being withheld because they are minors. The attack occurred March 4 when 20 Kennedy Middle School students went to Stulsaft Park in Redwood City. Three months later, during the last week of school, the girls told a school counselor they were almost raped by the boys.

REBATES
Continued from page 1
vides an added incentive to cut both energy bills and carbon footprints. With up to $8,000 in rebates and incentives now available under the program, a residential energy upgrade will now be affordable for many more homeowners in our county, Pine said in a prepared statement. The rebates will be available until March 2012. In some cases, the rebates are 50 percent to 70 percent of improvements, With the average home investment $10,000 to $12,000, savings average $3,000 which is then matched by the county up to $7,000, said Deputy County Peggy Jensen.

SATURDAY, AUG. 6, 2011

It is quite likely that you will resurrect two endeavors that you shelved in the past, not from of a lack of interest, but because you ran out of steam. With some fresh energy under your belt, you should be successful this time around.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Although you readily tend to

get along with everybody most of the time, a lack of harmonious thinking could substantially reduce your chances for success. Try to be a good team player. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You should think things out thoroughly before tackling a major project. It

might take one massive, concerted effort to achieve your goal, so be sure to secure your footing before making a move. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Be far more careful than usual about your financial dealings, especially in commercial involvements with a good friend. You might assume one thing, while your pal supposes another. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Even if you think you know better, instead of telling others how things should be done, set the example yourself. Your cohorts will try to match your performance. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Although this is likely to be quite a pleasant day for the most part, theres a chance you could accidentally do something that could be disruptive. Dont trip over your own feet.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- There are all kinds

of possibilities for personal gain, but in order to realize something of value, you need to have the necessary dedication to achieve a big goal. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Strive to be very explicit regarding what you expect of others when you are put in charge of a project. Any fuzzy directives could deprive you and everybody else of success. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- It isnt likely that someone who owes you money will pay you back in a reasonable time frame, unless you prompt him or her to do so. Dont hesitate to speak up. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- A new, exciting investment about which youve heard some good things shouldnt be touted as a sure thing to friends. If

something should go wrong, your pals will hold you accountable. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- In order to be successful with a project that youre in charge of, a concerted effort will be required. Plus, if you should initially fail, you must be prepared to regroup and try again. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Take plenty of time to analyze a situation so that you dont make a wrongful evaluation about something important. Jumping to conclusions could take you completely off course. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Conditions could be totally topsy-turvy, inasmuch as what you thought would be a snap could turn out to be difficult, while what you thought would be tough will be easy.
