Legal wrangling over Lehman

Attorneys for school districts tweak lawsuit against county over multi-million dollar loss
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

San Mateo Countys second-highest attorney claimed more than a dozen school districts could destroy chances for a federal bailout of the county investment pool by ling a $20

million lawsuit over Lehman Brothers bankruptcy losses, according to an amended version of the lawsuit. The new complaint, led in response to a judges ruling that the original suit was not timely nor specific enough, claims any lack of timeliness is due to San Mateo County Chief

Deputy County Counsel Brenda Carlson. Farley Neuman, attorney for 12 county school districts and the superintendent of schools, documents several occasions beginning in February 2009 in which he said Carlson asked him to delay ling a claim or lawsuit. She

reportedly said public record of either would destroy the countys lobbying efforts to obtain a federal bailout to compensate the pool for all the losses it sustained in its Lehman investments. Neuman said when he questioned why that would happen, Carlson replied she and the countys lobbying

experts believed any public accusations of imprudent conduct by the county or former treasurer-tax collector Lee Bufngton would undercut the countys political prospects for obtaining federal relief.

Burlingame post office hits market

City officials weighing purchase of prime piece of downtown land
By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Burlingames downtown could include opening up a creek which runs through the U.S. Postal Service property land the city will discuss plans for Thursday since it may soon be on the market. Burlingame ofcials have long shown interest in purchasing the U.S. Postal Service property at 341 Lorton Ave. Talks of the site or a portion of it being put on the market revitalized Burlingames interest. In June, the City Council gave direction to study the property in preparation of a possible purchase which it will do in a special meeting Thursday.
KORE CHAN/DAILY JOURNAL

Its a big wide space. We dont have many of those, said Mayor Terry Nagel. In many public meetings over the years, residents expressed an interest in having an open space to gather in the downtown. This could be the answer. Cost is an issue, as Nagel wasnt sure how the city would pay for such a purchase. She is open, however, to the idea of a public/private partnership. While no nal decision to sell the property has been made, a conversation with Tina Moyer, U.S. Postal Service real estate disposition specialist for the Pacic and Southwest

Specialty Italian dessert sees surge in popularity

By Rachel Lew
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT

No matter the season or region, theres one Italian dessert that never fails to please: gelato. Gelato, meaning frozen in Italian, is an Italian-style ice cream made with endless variety of intense avors not typically found in ice cream or frozen yogurt. Gelato establishments in San Mateo remain popular throughout the frozen yogurt franchise boom by being committed to its customers.

Its like comparing apples and oranges, said Scott Dawe, coowner of Tasty Treats in San Mateo. There is simply no comparison between gelato and ice cream. Dawe and Lily Rongkhasiriphan are co-owners of Tasty Treats on De Anza Boulevard. Creating gelato crepes using Fiorellos Italian Ice Cream from San Rafael has become an instant hit, they said. Tasty Treats serves 13 gelato avors and three sorbets daily in an addition to smoothies. Flavors such as coconut almond joy, cookies and cream,

strawberry and espresso are a few. Although gelato is most often compared to ice cream, gelato is a lot creamier, denser and thicker by the way its made, Dawe said. Its whipped at a lower speed, which means less air goes into it as opposed to ice cream. On East Fourth Avenue in downtown San Mateo, Sergio Salazar and wife Bonni-Jo Salazar of Sergios Pasta Shop sells fresh homemade pasta, such as ravioli, fettuccine and

The rescue swimmer who plucked a stranded windsurfer from the San Francisco Bay Tuesday morning after she spent the night oating in the water said the woman was calm, cool and collected when he reached her. She was in really good spirits, U.S. Coast Guard Petty Ofcer 2nd Class Gabe Pulliam said of 62-yearold Los Altos resident Cathy Caton. Caton had headed out windsurng from the shoreline near East Third Avenue in Foster City on Monday afternoon and was supposed to meet her husband back there at 5:30 p.m.

When she didnt show up, he became worried, especially since Caton had recently undergone chemotherapy and didnt have her normal strength, he said. He called 911, and the Coast Guard was notied at 7:20 p.m. Caton had apparently become stranded after a sail on her board failed Monday evening, and crews searched more than 82 square miles overnight before spotting Caton around 6 a.m. about half a mile north of the San Mateo Bridge with her arms draped over her surfboard, Pulliam said.

Will Rogers (1879-1935), the cowboy philosopher, wrote a syndicated newspaper column from 1922 to 1935 titled Will Rogers Says. His humorous column had commentary on social and political scenes. *** Gene Autry (1907-1998) worked as a telegraph operator in Oklahoma after graduating high school. While sending a telegram, Will Rogers heard Autry playing guitar at the telegraph ofce and suggested he look for a job in show business. *** When Republic Pictures signed Gene Autry in 1935 as the rst singing cowboy they had huge success, and began a new formula for movies. Autry made eight movies per year and was paid $5,000 per movie. *** In 1940, Gene Autry was rated the fourth biggest box ofce attraction, following Mickey Rooney (born 1920), Clark Gable (1901-1960) and Spencer Tracy (1900-1967). *** The starring role in the 1938 movie Under Western Stars was intended for

Gene Autry. However, Autry left the studio because of a contract dispute. Newcomer Roy Rogers (1911-1998) got the part. *** Before Roy Rogers became a star, he formed the cowboy singing group Sons of the Pioneers in 1933. *** Lucille Wood Smith and Leonard Frank Slye, better known as Roy Rogers and Dale Evans (1912-2001), were married for 51 years, from 1947 until Rogers death in 1998. It was Rogers second marriage, and Evans fourth. *** Dale Evans married her rst husband at age 14. She had a child at age 15, and was divorced at age 17. *** The song Happy Trails To You was sung as a duet by Roy Rogers and Dale Evans at the end of every episode of The Roy Rogers Show (1951-1957). *** Roy Rogers has three stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame; a star each for his contributions to the motion picture industry, the television industry and radio. All of the stars are on Vine Street. *** Do you know the names of the horses of Gene Autry, Roy Rogers and Dale Evans? See answer at end. *** The Lone Rangers trusty white Stallion was named Silver. Before Silver, the Lone Ranger rode a chestnut mare named Dusty. *** Sterling silver tarnishes because of its exposure to sulfur and oxygen. If ster-

ling silver jewelry is worn regularly, the oils in the skin will keep it from tarnishing. *** The natural oil in the skin is responsible for ngerprints. *** Fingerprint patterns are classied into various types such as the arch, the left loop, the right loop, the tented arch and the whorl. *** The rst trial which used ngerprint evidence to help identify the criminal was in India in 1898. In the United States, the rst trial that used ngerprint evidence took place in 1910. *** The FBI maintains the Integrated Automated Fingerprint Identification System. IAFIS stores the ngerprints and corresponding criminal history information of over 47 million people. *** Answer: Gene Autrys horse was named Champion. Roy Rogers horse was Trigger. Dale Evans horse was Buttermilk. Trigger, a Palomino stallion billed as the smartest horse in the movies, died in 1965. Buttermilk died in 1972. Both horses were stuffed and put on display at the Roy Rogers-Dale Evans Museum. The museum was originally located in Victorville, Calif. In 2003, the museum and the horses were moved to Branson, Mo.

Bond would help pay for fourth school

By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Acquiring land and building a fourth elementary school in Foster City is a pricey proposition, and school ofcials are hoping it will be covered through a $25 million bond measure. On Thursday, the San Mateo-Foster City Elementary School District Board of Trustees will decide if a $25 million bond measure will go before Foster City voters in November. Originally, the board, which serves San Mateo and Foster City, was hesitant about splitting the district to fund a new elementary school. Since then, the board has taken steps to create a school facilities improvement district that allows it to tax only a portion of the district. Increased enrollment and a desire to offer neighborhood schools to families brought on the districts search for a home of a yet-to-be-built

fourth Foster City elementary school. Earlier estimates called for $40 million to cover the costs of purchasing land and building a school. Only a $25 million bond measure is being proposed, however. Purchasing land could be covered using funds from Measure L a 2008 $175 million bond measure, to make up the difference. Measure Ls bond language allows for helping with overcrowding issues, said Trustee Lory Lorimer Lawson. How much from Measure L would be needed is unknown since negotiations for land are ongoing and design of a possible school has yet to begin. A second bond measure paid for by Foster City residents only would cover the bulk of the needed funds. How much a $25 million bond measure would cost voters has yet to be decided. Previous estimates had the tax as costing $18 to $20 per $100,000 of a propertys assessed value. Gomez as the teen who had attacked him and taken his bike, police said. The stolen bike was recovered and Gomez was arrested the next day. Gomez was booked into San Mateo County Jail on robbery charges, and is being held on $50,000 bail. On July 9, a Daly City man was walking through the park at about 8:30 p.m. when three men wearing black hoodies and tan pants assaulted him and stole his cellphone, according to police. He was taken to a hospital to be treated for cuts and bruises on his face, police said. No arrests were made in that case, and no suspects have been identied. Nuclear Society for 59 years, he worked for Oak Ridge National Laboratories and ALCO before retiring from Bechtel Corporation as managing project engineer. His power plant projects included Ft. Belvoir, Greenland, Alaska, Jim Leslie Wisconsin and Seattle where he managed and mentored hundreds of engineers over his lengthy career. He consulted with power plant operators for several years following retirement. He was active in Bechtels Big Eat Retirement Club, Seniors in Retirement and Peninsula Ballet Theatre. A celebration of his life will be held 2 p.m.5 p.m. July 24 at Peninsula Ballet Theatre, 1880 S. Grant St. in San Mateo. In lieu of owers, donations may be made to American Heart Association, American Cancer Society,

In January, Godbe Research conducted a phone interview of Foster City voters. Sixty percent of those polled supported at tax rate of $19 per the $100,000 of a propertys assessed value. Support increased to 64 percent when the rate dropped to $14. Finding a home for a new school has been a challenge for the district. In recent months, the board has discussed four sites during closed session meetings. One lot at 400 Mariners Island Blvd. is located on a street which acts as the boundary between San Mateo and Foster City. It is valued at $2.2 million, according to the San Mateo County Treasurer-Tax Collectors Ofce. The six-acre parcel at 1164 Trinton Drive is valued at $20.6 million, according to the Tax Collectors Ofce. The 4.9-acre parcel at 551 Foster City Blvd. is valued at $5.4 million. An online search showed ofce or business rental Anyone with information is asked to contact South San Francisco police at (650) 877-8900.

space available at both locations. Lastly, the six-acre location at 1050-1064 Shell Blvd. is valued at $4.46 million. The post ofce is one of the services offered at the included addresses. This is not the rst time a district has singled out an area to fund a new school. Enrollment grew quickly in Redwood Shores about 10 years ago. Efforts to open a new elementary school in Redwood Shores gained momentum in November 2005 when voters approved a $25 million bond measure to pay for the costs of buying land and building a school. The hope was to open the new school by the fall of 2009. The school, Redwood Shores Elementary, just completed its rst year. The board meets 7 p.m. Thursday, July 21 at the District Ofce, 1170 Chess Drive, Foster City. Investigators believe that Banford was standing on the sidewalk and talking to someone in a vehicle when a white-colored sedan approached and stopped behind the other car, police said. The suspect left the car, walked toward Banford and shot him in the torso several times before eeing in the sedan, according to the East Palo Alto Police Department. Detectives could not immediately provide any further details about the suspect. Witnesses are encouraged to contact East Palo Alto police by calling or sending a text message to the anonymous tip line at (650) 409-6792. Anonymous tips can also be sent by email to epa@tipnow.org. of the Highlands, 194 Millwood Drive at El Camino Real in Millbrae. The funeral mass will be celebrated 11 a.m. Friday at St. Dunstan Catholic Church, 1133 Broadway in Millbrae where services will conclude.

Hearing to feature same-sex couples

WASHINGTON The White House on Tuesday threw its backing behind a bill that would repeal a 15-year-old law that denes marriage as between a man and a woman. The Senate Judiciary Committee will hold its rst hearing on the legislation Wednesday. The bill, which is sponsored by Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., would repeal the Defense of Marriage Act, a measure that makes same-sex couples ineligible for the many federal benets that accrue to married, heterosexual couples. White House Press Secretary Jay Carney reiterated President Barack Obamas support for repealing the Defense of Marriage Act. This legislation would uphold the principle that the federal government should not deny gay and lesbian couples the same rights and legal protections as straight couples. Carney said. Feinstein said she is under no illusion that Congress will act this year to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act. Still, she views the committee hearing as an important rst step. She said more people are open to gay marriage than in 1996. I think eyes have opened. More and more people across this land know people who are gay, Dianne who want to have a lasting Feinstein relationship, who look at marriage as an economic agreement as well as an emotional agreement, said Feinstein, one of 14 senators who voted against the Defense of Marriage Act. The hearing will give lawmakers the chance to hear rsthand from married, same-sex couples. They complain that the law generates several obstacles that they consider discriminatory. For example, gay couples who get married in New York, Iowa or any other state that recognizes same-sex marriage cannot le joint federal income taxes and claim certain deductions. Nor can they receive spousal benets under Social Security or take unpaid leave for certain family and medical reasons. Feinsteins legislation has 27 co-sponsors, but no Republicans. With the GOP in control of the House, she understands the political realities of repealing the bill anytime soon. If we dont succeed this session, we will try again next session, she said. Believe me, we will continue this effort until the battle is won. Feinstein spoke at the National Press Club on Tuesday along with three same-sex couples and representatives of an advocacy group called the Courage Campaign. The couples spoke about the disadvantages they experience because of the Defense of Marriage Act. For example, Beth Coderre and Beth Vorro of Rhode Island have to purchase individual health insurance instead of as a family, costing them thousands of dollars extra each year. I think, as Rosa Parks might say, its time to get up from the back of the bus and assume our seats among the rest of our fellow human beings, Coderre said.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT

As Silicon Valleys technology hub nds new growth and opportunity after the recession, workforce leaders must focus on ways to ready employees for future jobs, according to a new study of the transitional period. High-skill jobs will jump 15 percent over the next two years, as conrmed by hiring at tech companies like Google and Facebook, executives said. To make the most of the opportunities, job seekers need to show increased exibility and the ability to work together to remain relevant, said Stephen Levy, director of the Palo Alto-based Center for Continuing Study of the California Economy and author of the new evaluation. The eight-month study, entitled Silicon Valley in Transition: Economic and Workforce Implications in the age of iPads, Android Apps and the Social Web, offers recommendations culled from several workforce investment boards including work2future in San Mateo County. In general, the study concludes that scal struggles are threatening Silicon Valleys advantages like a pool of high-tech talent, a high quality of life and access to capital and great universities. Valley leaders wanting to protect their dominance as the worlds preeminent innovation site must invest in infrastructure and community as well as workforce, the study nds.

Study:Tobacco money sways state politics

CITY GOVERNMENT
The Redwood City Utilities Committee of the City Council will discuss expanding the recycled water program, current cash ow projections for the sewer system and the water master plan project. The committee meets 4 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. Wednesday, July 27 at the Public Works Services Department, 1400 Broadway, Redwood City.

SACRAMENTO The tobacco industry spent $9.3 million over the past two years to ght cigarette taxes, support candidates and inuence politics in California, an anti-smoking group said in a report issued Tuesday. The report by the American Lung Association in California said political spending by tobacco interests over the past decade totaled almost $100 million, with cigarette maker Philip Morris USA Inc. accounting for more than half the total. Altria Group Inc., corporate parent of Philip Morris, declined to comment. The report is the latest by the association documenting political spending by the tobacco indus-

try, which spikes when cigarette taxes or tobacco regulations are in play at the Capitol or at the ballot box. Researchers found that tobacco companies and distributors contributed more than $6.5 million to political committees and candidates for the Legislature and statewide ofce in 2009 and 2010. Most of that went to two tax-related ballot initiatives. Another $2.7 million went for lobbying on legislation. Big tobacco continues to use its vast nancial resources for campaign contributions and lobbying expenditures to oppose bills and ballot initiatives that would benet public health by reducing tobacco use, said Jane Warner, president and chief executive of the state lung association, in a prepared statement.

The group says smoking rates continue to drop in California, which contributes to better health and lower medical expenses, but the tobacco industry spends heavily to ght efforts that could cut smoking even more. It doesnt always work, though. About 60 percent of all industry contributions during the two-year period $3.85 million, all from Philip Morris went to political committees that were trying to inuence the results of two 2010 ballot measures. The tobacco company gave money to oppose Proposition 25, which changed the vote needed to pass a state budget from twothirds to a simple majority; and to support Proposition 26, which classied many fees as taxes so that a two-thirds majority vote is needed to change them. Voters approved both measures.

Herniated Disc? Severe Back/Neck Pain? Sciatica?

Spinal Decompression may be your answer to minimizing your chronic pain and restoring better motion and function back to your spine.
At Crossroads Health Center, your Satisfaction is Guaranteed. Let us help you get the quality of life back that you deserve.
y name is Dr. Thomas Ferrigno D.C., owner of Crossroads Health Center in Campbell and San Mateo. I understand what it feels like to live with chronic back pain. Due to several auto accidents and sports injuries, I have personally suffered from multiple disc herniations in both my neck and lower back and understand rsthand the severe pain and disability that comes with these types of injuries to the point where I was forced to sell all 3 of my practices. I did not want to have spinal surgery due to the high risk; instead I wanted a non-surgical non-invasive therapy that would help me manage my condition. That is when I turned to Spinal Decompression, not as a doctor, but as a patient and it completely changed my life. Within a few months my pain went from severe to mild and I was able to return back to my activities of golf, weight lifting and spending quality time with my family. It has been my mission ever since to share this great new technology with as many people as possible. While non-surgical spinal decompression is a rather new treatment, theres plenty of research to back up its claims. Give us a call and we will send you the studies or visit my website at www.BayAreaBackPain.Com. However its the results we see every day in our ofce that get us so excited about this new non-invasive treatment. Read what a few of our patients are saying. My severe lower back and sciatica pain have been reduced signicantly since receiving spinal decompression therapy. I am now able to walk, golf and do things without pain that I havent been able to do for years. Thank you, Dr. Ferrigno C.M. Allard During the 1 1/2 years of having constant daily lower back pain and spasms, I took anti-inammatory and pain medication, but nothing helped lessen the pain. Physical therapy didnt help. When an MRI showed that I had two degenerative discs, I went through a series of lumbar epidural injections. The rst one helped a tiny bit, but the others didnt do a thing for my pain. The only thing that made the pain and spasms go away was Spinal Decompression treatments at Crossroads Health Center. Four years later and I am still pain-free! Lisa K..

Severe back pain and sciatica puts a halt to any enjoyment in life. But now there is hope . . .

Rescue effort deserves praise

ne wouldnt expect the story of a windsurfer stranded in San Francisco Bay for more than 12 hours over night to have a happy ending. But it did, largely thanks to the efforts of the U.S. Coast Guard rescue crews who spent hours trolling the Bay in boats and searching from the air in helicopters. It was a full effort, with members of the Alameda, Foster City and Redwood City re departments water rescue teams lending a hand until light failed and the waters became too choppy. Cathy Caton, a 62-year-old Los Altos woman, entered the Bay to windsurf at approximately 5 p.m. and was expected back within a half an hour. The initial 911 call

Other voices
survival seemed grim as the search went on. But the situation should also telegraph caution to those who recreate in the Bay. It is a large body of water that one person can easily be lost in. And it still took rescue crews with the latest technology and large numbers at their disposal nearly 12 hours to nd Caton. She also had proper equipment, a wetsuit with gloves, boots, a hat, a personal otation device and a radio, though the batteries died in the middle of the night. There was also the benet of relatively warm conditions. Without any of that equipment, the exhaustive search and a lot of luck, the story could have been much worse.

went out at approximately 7 p.m. and rescue crews hit the water soon after. The regularity of such calls is lamentably on the rise, and local crews who spend hours training for such rescues were ready for the call. Though locals had to call off their search at approximately 9:30 p.m., the U.S. Coast Guard went through the night searching and eventually found her near the San Mateo-Hayward Bridge at approximately 6 a.m. The rescue was a well-coordinated team effort even though the chances of Catons

Letters to the editor

Pure democracy and mob rule
Editor, I oppose Assembly Bill 459, authored by our own Assemblyman Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo, because this country was founded as a republic and not a democracy. Pure democracy, or mob rule, is like two wolves and a lamb voting over what to have for lunch. As a republic with a constitution designed to protect individual rights and provide diversity in representation, we get a lively debate in most areas of the country and the politicians have to earn their votes. With only the popular vote counted, whole regions of the country would be disenfranchised fly-over territory. Lets get California back in the game by becoming more politically diverse and by not remaining a taken-for-granted one-party state. Sacramento e-mail on a request for his assistance and/or recommendation on a realistic method to contact an authority in the bureaucratic public school system has been without any response. I certainly understand that he relies on his staff to review requests from his district but if his staff is unable to at least reply with a boiler plate response, it must speak to his lack of capability to select proper staff and to manage their performance. My understanding is that local district level issues should be a priority to an assemblyman and higher level state issues should be more of a prime activity of the upper house state Senate. I dont believe that our local district issues are a priority with Mr. Hill. I do hope this lack of supportive service to his constituency will improve before he reaches a higher office. was not coming my direction at the time. Sorry, I digress. Well, if you ride the bike, be careful. If you sell it, do not be surprised if the person who buys it brings it back. On the other hand, if you would like to return it to me as quietly as Santa Claus puts gifts under the tree, similar to the way you took it from me, feel free to do so, no questions asked.

Start wasting
Editor, Our economy is built on waste. We need to buy more stuff, eat more food, drink more beer and travel to any place. One of our biggest wastes is war. It keeps our factories building guns and ammunition, killing lots of people, destroying cities and burning the landscape. So start wasting so that the economy will soar.

Disappointment with Hills office

Editor, Our district Assemblyman Jerry Hill seems to be a hard-working representative primarily on bills and activities that impact overall state issues. He has been successful in the passage of several authored bills and has received acclaim for such dedicated service. As the Majority Caucus Chair in the Assembly, it is obvious that he has the respect and support of his party. All of this seems to point to his ambition of reaching higher political posts within California and probably representing California on a national level or even higher. With all of this said, I now have a problem in voting for him again on future ballots. My attempt to contact him by letter and his

Word of caution
Editor, This is an open letter of caution to the person who cut the lock of and stole my red, Specialized Roubaix Pro bike from my carport; it has a serial number on the bottom bracket: STB54F004. Ever since I crashed it about a week ago, the bike has developed a high speed wobble on descents when going over 30 mph. I have been talking to the people at the shop where I bought the bike about looking it over for minute cracks in the carbon fiber frame. That might explain the abnormal vibration. When it went into a shimmy coming down Edgewood Road, it was pretty scary, especially when I could not steer it properly and crossed over into oncoming traffic. Good thing a car

he Internal Revenue Service is worried: Too many Americans are underreporting their income, either deliberately or by making mistakes on their tax returns. The net result, the IRS reports, is that there is a tax gap between whats owed and whats actually paid that amounts to as much as 16 percent of federal taxes going uncollected. The last survey of the problem is a full decade old, and estimates from 2001 say $345 billion was going uncollected then. Today, the amount could be between $410 billion and $500 billion, and the IRS is planning another study within a year or so. Naturally, the agency wants more money for compliance, a word that means hiring more agents and auditors to crack down on scofaws who may be inadvertently underreporting income or deliberately keeping it under the table or in offshore accounts. But IRS requests for another $240 million for tax enforcement initiatives that could raise ve times that amount in revenue encounter resistance in Congress, where efforts to trim federal spending, even if it yields a gain to government, remain popular. Very few ordinary Americans do their own taxes anymore, instead hiring professionals for the burdensome duty. And with thousands of pages of rules and laws, the code itself expanded yearly by politicians offering exemptions and subsidies for favored groups is nearly incomprehensible. The obvious conclusion is that compliance and revenues would be boosted signicantly if the code were simplied and made more comprehensible. A tax code in plain English may seem impossible, but we wont know it cant be done unless we try.

The irony of the American people

Editor, Casey Anthony was released from prison today amid outcries of murderer and baby killer as she was escorted from the jail steps to an awaiting vehicle. Yet George W. Bush, who murdered a million human beings, sits unmolested in his Texas mansion unscathed by his war crimes. As Stalin said, One death is a tragedy, a million is a statistic. How did America get to this point?

llegal immigration is one of those big problems that America has to solve. Solving it will require a bipartisan agreement on how to keep the nations borders secure while keeping its doors open to immigrants who can add value to the economy and our communities. That may not happen this year, in the run-up to a presidential election. But it will have to happen sometime. President Barack Obama was no doubt playing to his political base when he went to El Paso, Texas, earlier this year for his first visit to the U.S.-Mexico border. He was ostensibly there to restart the drive for comprehensive immigration reform. But this is what he had to say about the Republicans: You know, they said we needed to triple the Border Patrol. Or now theyre going to say we need to quadruple the Border Patrol. Or theyll want a higher fence. Maybe theyll need a moat. Maybe theyll want alligators in the moat. It got a good laugh from the campaign supporters in the crowd, many of whom later paid $50,000 a couple to dine with the president. Certainly, sneering and jeering res up the base. But, Obama neglected to explain why he didnt push through immigration reform when Democrats had full control of Congress. Perhaps the president sees immigration as a quintessential campaign issue that can be used to draw clear lines between the parties. That means little in the way of real reform can be expected until the year after the presidential election.

NEW YORK Strong prots and a bipartisan plan to lift the U.S. debt limit drove a stock market rebound Tuesday. Stock indexes rose after Coca-Cola, IBM and other companies reported better secondquarter earnings.

The Dow Jones industrial average gained 202.26 points, or 1.6 percent, to close at 12,587.42. Thats the Dows largest one-day jump this year. It looks like theres bipartisan support for a robust plan, said Burt White, chief investment ofcer at LPL Financial in Boston. The stock market had been looking for a reason to have a relief rally. And it looks like they got the start of one today. The ongoing deadlock in Washington over raising the countrys borrowing limit and Europes debt crisis have been weighing on markets this month.

Information technology stocks led industry groups higher after IBM Corp.s results beat analysts estimates. Corporate software spending held steady during the quarter. IBMs stock rose 5.7 percent.

Venture-cap investments rise in second quarter

By Rachel Metz
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Venture capitalists invested more in U.S. startups in the second quarter than they did during the same period a year ago, suggesting that investors are ramping up their search for the next Facebook or Twitter. In the April-June period, startup investments climbed 5 percent to $7.5 billion, up from $7.2 billion in the yearago quarter, according to a study published Wednesday. That funding went to 966 startups down 3 percent from the 998 startups that received funding in the second quarter of 2010, but up 19 percent from the 814 that were funded rst three months of the year. The study is conducted each quarter by the National Venture Capital Association and PricewaterhouseCoopers, and is based on data from Thomson Reuters. Starting last quarter, the NVCA made two changes to the way data are collected in an attempt to more accurately reect market trends. The study now includes nancing rounds to startups that have previously received funds ear-

marked for an acquisition, although though it wont count the funding round that enabled the acquisition. And it also includes corporate investments in startups that have received venture funding in the past. As usual, most of the funding for the quarter went to companies in the expansion and later stage of development. A total of $5.1 billion was divided between 502 companies, compared with $4.7 billion divided between 536 companies in a year earlier. Though some companies have been able to go public or be acquired by others like online professional networking service LinkedIn Corp., which went public in May the economy has forced many venture capital rms to keep more mature companies in their portfolios for quite some time before proting from them. Funding to companies in the seed and early stage of development dipped slightly to $2.4 billion, which was divvied up among 464 companies. But while that total amount declined a bit year over year, funding to early stage companies alone managed to climb to its highest level since ter, the company was struggling to make enough of the new iPad 2.

the first quarter of 2001. And more companies 310 received their first round of financing than had since the second quarter of 2008. The total that went to these companies $1.5 billion was the highest since the third quarter of that same year. As is usually the case, most of this funding went to companies in the seed and early stage of development. In an interview, NVCA president Mark Heesen said the increase in rstround nancings shows the market for IPOs and acquisitions is improving enough for venture capitalists to nd new companies to fund. Still, the market has moved from what he considered a grade of D last year to C this year. Things are better, but its not a report card you run home to mom and dad with, he said.

Apple results strong; record iPhone, iPad sales
NEW YORK Apple Inc.s results trumped expectations for yet another quarter, with iPhone and iPad sales setting new records. Its stock surged $19.85, or 5.3 percent, to $396.70 in extended trading after the results came out Tuesday. The stock was already at record highs. Net income in the scal third quarter, which ended in June, was $7.31 billion, or $7.79 per share. Thats more than double the $3.25 billion, or $3.51 per share, a year ago. Analysts polled by FactSet were expecting earnings of $5.82 per share. Revenue was $28.6 billion, up 82 percent from $15.7 billion a year ago. Analysts were expecting $24.8 billion. The results were lifted by the sale of 20.3 million iPhones, millions more than analysts had expected. IPad sales came in at 9.25 million units, also above analyst expectations. Last quar-

Yahoo 2Q earnings rise, net revenue sinks 5 percent

SAN FRANCISCO Yahoo Inc. plodded through another sluggish performance in the second quarter. The disappointing results, released Tuesday, may intensify pressure on Yahoo CEO Carol Bartz, who has spent the past 2 1/2 years trying to turn around the Internet company. Yahoo earned $237 million, or 18 cents per share, during the three months ending in June. Thats an 11 percent increase from $213 million, or 15 cents per share, at the same time last year. The earnings, bolstered by cost cutting undertaken since Bartzs January 2009 hiring, matched the projections among analysts surveyed by FactSet. But Yahoos revenue sank at a time when advertisers are pouring more money into the Internet. Revenue totaled $1.23 billion, a 23 percent decline from $1.6 billion at the same

NEW YORK The nations largest mortgage lender is turning to cost-cutting as the economy sputters and the grinding housing slump means waning prots from new mortgages. Wells Fargo & Co. on Tuesday posted a 30 percent leap in second-quarter prot, boosted by the release of a big chunk of the money set aside to cover defaulted loans and foreclosed mortgages. But the San Francisco bank reported a sharp decline in the number of new mortgages it wrote, reecting the ongoing weakness in the housing market and a drop in renancing activity. Bank executives detailed plans for cutting expenses to $11 billion per quarter by the end of next year. Expenses in the quarter were $12.48 billion.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. Abby Wambach is coming home to an anticipated full house in Rochester in the U.S. womens soccer stars rst game since a World Cup nal loss to Japan Abby Wambach last weekend.

The Sahlens Stadium ticket ofce reported Tuesday morning that there are about 100 tickets left for the Womens Professional Soccer league game Wednesday night between Wambachs magicJack and the Western New York Flash. The downtown Rochester stadiums

Hall of Fame defensive end Carl Eller thinks a deal to end the NFL lockout will be reached this week and says retired players wont stand in the way of an agreement. Eller and lawyers for retired NFL players joined labor talks for about seven hours Tuesday in New York as signs mounted the dispute might almost be over. After leaving the negotiations, Eller headed to a meeting with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. They want to get these games going, and they want to have a season. Thats their focus, Eller said. Our issues are very, very critical very important but they dont really have much to do with whether the game goes on or not. He said theres still a lot more to be done when it comes to benets for former players, but that could be resolved after the main dispute is settled. The court-appointed mediator, U.S. Magistrate Judge Arthur Boylan, also was at the session, his second consecutive day overseeing negotiations. Owners and players were trying to close a deal to resolve the NFLs rst work stoppage since 1987. The NFL Players Associations executive committee met in Washington on Tuesday to prepare for possible votes on an agreement in principle. Representatives of all 32 teams were supposed to arrive by Wednesday. The grass is cut, but the hay is not in the barn yet. Weve got a lot of work to do, NFLPA president Kevin Mawae said. Owners, meanwhile, are set to hold a special meeting in Atlanta on Thursday, when they could ratify a new deal. Executives from all 32 teams then would be briefed there Thursday and Friday on how the

SAN FRANCISCO Brandon Belt hit a tiebreaking two-run double in the seventh inning in his rst game back in the majors and the San Francisco Giants nally gave Madison Bumgarner some run support at home while beating the Los Angeles Dodgers 5-3 on Tuesday night. Belt, called up from Triple-A Fresno earlier in the day to give slumping rst baseman Aubrey Huff a rest, homered in his rst at-bat. He was retired his next two trips to the plate, then lined a bases-loaded double down the left-eld Brandon Belt line off reliever Hong-Chih Kuo. Andres Torres, Mike Fontenot and Pablo Sandoval, the first three batters in San Franciscos lineup, had two hits apiece to help the NL West-leading Giants to their ninth win in 11 games. Rafael Furcal singled in two runs for the Dodgers, who led early but couldnt score over the nal six innings and lost their sixth consecutive game to San Francisco. Bumgarner (5-9) struck out seven in eight innings, yielding three runs and four hits. The young left-hander retired his nal 16 batters and issued no walks for the second straight start. Its the rst time in 18 starts at AT&T Park that Bumgarner has received more than three runs of support. Brian Wilson pitched the ninth for his 29th save in 33 chances, helping the Giants increase their lead over Arizona to 4 1/2 games.

Make or break season for UFL

Sports brief
Racecar driver Juan Pablo Montoya changes crew chief
CONCORD, N.C. Juan Pablo Montoya will have a new crew chief when he returns next week to Indianapolis Motor Speedway because his team replaced Brian Pattie on Tuesday. Jim Pohlman will immediately take over as crew chief on an interim basis, Earnhardt Ganassi Racing announced. Pohlman has been with the organization since 2006 in various jobs. We are pleased to be able to have someone of Jims caliber to be able to place into this role, team owner Chip Ganassi said in a statement. Jim has been with us a number of years and I have condence in his abilities to move the team forward. Montoya, who is in a contract year with Ganassi, is 17th in the Sprint Cup standings, and 59 points out of 10th. The timing comes at a time when the schedule suits Montoya. The Cup Series is off this weekend, but returns next week to Indianapolis, where Montoya dominated the last two years. He should have won both races, but was agged for speeding on pit road in 2009 and crashed out of last years race after a four-tire stop mired him in trafc. The series also heads next month to Watkins Glen, where Montoya is the defending race winner. But Montoya has had two rough weeks he wasnt sure where he was supposed to line up during a late restart at Kentucky, and he ran out of gas on the nal lap of Sundays race at New Hampshire. Pattie had been Montoyas crew chief since the 12th race of the 2008 season. He guided Montoya to only one win and one appearance in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship, but their work together had been much better than their statistics show. Im going to help Jim get up to speed because the next three races are all races we can win, said Pattie, who was informed by Ganassi over the phone Tuesday.

OMAHA, Neb. With the NFL working to end its lockout and save preseason, the struggling United Football League announced Tuesday it would push back the start of its games from August to September. The schedule switch is another blow at a critical time to the second-tier pro league that has lost more than $100 million in its two years of existence. The UFL had hoped to gain exposure in the vacuum left by a locked-out NFL. It scheduled several early-season games on Sundays and aimed to ll television time slots normally reserved for NFL exhibition games. But Michael Huyghue Commissioner Michael Huyghue told reporters he was resigned to losing a windfall from the NFL. It seems nonsensical for us to play on Sundays when the NFL is there, Huyghue said. The only reason we did it was we hedged our bet and felt condent the labor situation was going to invade the traditional preseason, and that might be inducement for networks to want to ll that void with a highquality football product. That is not the case. The UFL has franchises in Omaha, Hartford, Conn., Norfolk, Va., Las Vegas and Sacramento. The league is made up of players who were cut in NFL training camps, veterans who want to get back to the NFL and free agents. Players earn about $40,000 a season. Even with the delayed start, the plan is for each team to play eight regular-season games, Huyghue said. This is considered a make-or-break year for

If the labor situation got solved on Thursday,I probably would be in their ofce Friday.Its a natural t.Were going to need a more powerful support behind us to assist with television and sponsorship.
Michael Huyghue,Commissioner,United Football League

the UFL, whose majority owners are Bill Hambrech, Paul Pelosi and Bill Mayer. Huyghue said the league projected that it would lose money the rst three years. But the $100 million in losses so far is considerably higher than Huyghue had reported previously. There also are $6 million in unpaid bills from UFL vendors. Huyghue said he twice recommended that the league suspend operations, in January and again last month. But he said each time the owners told him they believed in the UFLs mission and were committed to funding the leagues $50 million budget for this season. The commissioner said the UFLs long-term survival depends on bringing in new investors and landing a TV contract. He unsuccessfully negotiated with CBS and TNT in recent months. The best-case scenario would be for the NFL to come on board as a partner, he said. Huyghue said he had unsuccessfully approached the NFL the past two years about a partnership or a commitment to use the UFL as a developmental league. Asked if he would try again, Huyghue said, If the labor situation got solved on Thursday, I probably would be in their ofce on Friday. Its a natural t. Were going to need a more powerful support behind us to assist with television and sponsorship. If the UFL became a developmental league in the mold of the old NFL Europe, Huyghue said, the UFL would be willing to play in the more work to be done, Eller said. Its certainly something we want to keep going and continue the dialogue, continue to work until we have some kind of a solution. Owners locked out players on March 12, when the old collective bargaining agreement expired, leaving the countrys most popular professional sports league in limbo. The sides are trying to forge a settlement in time to keep the preseason completely intact. The exhibition opener is supposed to be the Hall of Fame game between the St. Louis Rams and Chicago Bears on Aug. 7. The regular-season opener is scheduled for Sept. 8, when the Super Bowl champion Green Bay Packers are to host the New Orleans Saints. The four-month lockout has resulted in pay cuts for non-playing employees around the league, and economic hardship for cities, like Cortland, N.Y., that hosted training camps in the past but wont this year. On Tuesday, the lower-level UFL which had been hoping to start its season in the void created by a lack of NFL preseason games announced it is delaying its season start to mid-September, a blow for a league that has lost $100 million in only two years. During lengthy negotiations last week, NFL owners and players came up with the framework of a CBA that addresses most of their differences. Areas theyve gured out include: How the more than $9 billion in annual league revenues will be divided, with somewhere from 46.5 to 48.5 percent going to players, depending on how much the total take from TV contracts and other sources rises or falls; A structure for rookie contracts that will rein in soaring salaries for high rst-round draft picks; Free agency rules that allow most fouryear veterans to negotiate with any team; A cap of about $120 million per team for player salaries in 2011, with about another $20 million per team in benets. Each team must spend at least 90 percent of the salary cap in cash each season, a higher gure than in the past.

spring or fall or a combination of the two. The NFL and UFL have had a cordial relationship, Huyghue said. Last season each 52-man roster included an average of 24 players with NFL experience. NFL teams signed about 60 UFL players last season, assigning them to either the active roster or practice squad. Our owners dont want to get out, Huyghue said. They want a system of support so theyre not shouldering all the nancial burden themselves. UFL games were shown on HDNet and Versus last year, with the league paying production costs for Versus telecasts. The league also spends about $9 million for workers compensation insurance and an additional $2 million on chartered ights and hotels, Huyghue said. The emergence of the Omaha Nighthawks as a signature franchise gave the UFL hope it could nd its niche. The team averaged about 23,000 fans for its four home games last season with a roster featuring NFL veterans Jeff Garcia and Ahman Green and former Ohio State star Maurice Clarett. Clarett is set to play for the Nighthawks again this season along with Nebraskas 2001 Heisman Trophy winner, Eric Crouch. The UFL is hoping to avoid the fate of other upstart pro football leagues that failed. You can only tell people youre doing your best, Huyghue said. The only crystal ball I have is the message I get from the owners, and they are supportive.

terms would affect league business. Clubs were told topics would include the 2011 NFL calendar, rookie salary system and guidelines for player transactions. Goodell and NFLPA head DeMaurice Smith planned to stay in regular contact. Still unresolved is what it will take to get the 10 plaintiffs including quarterbacks Peyton Manning and Drew Brees, Chargers receiver Vincent Jackson and Patriots guard Logan Mankins to sign off on a settlement to their antitrust lawsuit against the NFL that is pending in federal court in Minnesota. On Tuesday, lawyers for the NFL and the players suing the league submitted a joint ling to the court, asking for an extra week to le written arguments to allow them to focus on the continuing mediation. Tuesdays request, which was granted in the afternoon, noted that the parties have also been meeting regularly since April 11, 2011, in an effort to resolve their disputes. Also pending is the TV networks case, in which players accused owners of setting up $4 billion in lockout insurance. Another issue said to be standing in the way of a resolution to the lockout: Players want owners to turn over $320 million in unpaid benets from the 2010 season. Because there was no salary cap that season, the old collective bargaining agreement said NFL teams werent required to pay those benets. On a separate matter, a proposal under consideration would set up nearly $1 billion over the next 10 years in additional benets for retired players. That would include $620 million in pension increases, long-term care insurance and disability programs. Retired players complained to the court recently that they had been excluded from negotiations, which is why Ellers presence was signicant. We werent happy, and we hope it doesnt go back to that. We hope we stay active in the talks and we hope we continue to have meaningful talks. This clearly lets us know theres

The Dodgers, who were shut out a night earlier by All-Star right-hander Ryan Vogelsong and a pair of relievers, answered with three runs in the third. Tony Gwynn Jr. doubled in James Loney and Juan Rivera added a go-ahead two-run single. Rivera, though, was thrown out trying to scramble back to the bag after taking a wide turn at first. San Francisco opened the fifth with three straight hits off De La Rosa. Sandoval, who has reached base in 27 consecutive games, singled in Torres with the tying run.

The owner of south Florida-based magicJack, Dan Borislow, told the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle he expects Wambach to be tired, but will want to play. Wambach led the U.S. with four goals in Germany, upping her World Cup career

total to 13 which puts her third on the alltime scoring list. Shes had a busy schedule since returning to the U.S. on Monday. Joined by her U.S. teammates, Wambach was interviewed on ABC News Good Morning America on Tuesday. Later in the day, she and goalie Hope Solo were scheduled to appear on the Late Show With David Letterman. On Wednesday afternoon, Wambach, Morgan and Rapinoe are scheduled to attend whats billed as a homecoming rally at a mall outside of Rochester.

DETROIT Guillermo Moscosos worst inning as a starter led to another loss for the Oakland Athletics. Moscoso yielded two-run homers by Miguel Cabrera and Carlos Guillen during Detroits six-run fth inning, and Oakland lost 8-3 to the Tigers on Tuesday night. It is kind of frustrating, because we played very good baseball, and I lost the game in one inning, Moscoso said. It was really just three mistakes, but they did damage on all of them. You cant leave fastballs up when you are trying to get out of a jam. Moscoso (3-5) hadnt allowed more than four earned runs in a game this season, his rst as a starter. He allowed six in 4 2-3 innings Tuesday. The Tigers trailed 3-1 before they grabbed control in the fth. After Magglio Ordonez brought Detroit to within a run with a sacrice y, Cabrera hit his 20th homer of the season, putting the Tigers ahead to stay. Cabreras drive went an estimated 422 feet to left and gave him 600 career extra-base hits. Victor Martinez followed with a double, and Jhonny Peraltas RBI single made it 5-3. Guillen then hit a two-run shot of his own. It was his rst homer since Aug. 14 shortly before his 2010 season ended because of a left knee injury. Guillen didnt return to the lineup until Saturday. He reached base four times Tuesday. It stretches out your lineup any time you

get another hitter going in there, Detroit manager Jim Leyland said. Especially a switch hitter like Carlos and a proven hitter. Detroits Rick Porcello (9-6) allowed three runs and eight hits in six innings. Brennan Boesch hit his second double of the game in the sixth, driving in another run to make it 8-3. The Tigers might have gured this was their night after Martinez showed impressive agility while scoring in the fourth inning. Great feet, you know, Cabrera said. He can play soccer. Martinez was on rst with two out when Guillen hit a hard grounder that handcuffed rst baseman Conor Jackson for an error. The ball bounced over into foul territory down the right-eld line, and Martinez tried to come all the way around. David DeJesus throw was in plenty of time but a bit wide of home to the rst-base side. Suzuki caught it and dove back to tag Martinez, but the runner wasnt there yet. Rather than slide, Martinez sidestepped the plate entirely. When Suzuki, almost on all fours at the plate, reached out again to make the tag, Martinez reached back with his left arm and touched home. That was a very acrobatic I guess, to say the least slide, Leyland said. But he got in there and he was safe. It was a big play for us. Oakland manager Bob Melvin came out and argued the safe call to no avail. It was 1-0 Tigers.

Giants acquire infield help Contador looks

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HOUSTON The Houston Astros traded second baseman Jeff Keppinger to the San Francisco Giants for two Double-A pitchers on Tuesday. Houston also purchased the contract of inelder Jose Altuve from Double-A Corpus Christi, and Astros manager Brad Mills said he will get signicant playing time at second base. Keppinger, batting .307 with four homers and 20 RBIs in 43 games this season since his return from foot surgery, is looking forward to playing for a team in the playoff hunt. The defending World Series champion Giants entered Tuesdays game in rst place in the NL West.

I get to go to a team thats in contention, he said. This will be the rst time Ive ever actually been on a team thats been in rst place or even with a winning record. Its definitely exciting and thats what you want when you play this game. The Giants have had injury problems at second base this season with Freddy Sanchez out since June 10 with a dislocated right shoulder. They signed former Houston second baseman Bill Hall after Sanchez was injured, but he is on the disabled list because of a leg laceration. The 30-year-old Keppinger came to Houston in a March 2009 trade from Cincinnati. He is a career .284 hitter with 30

homers and 200 RBIs with the New York Mets, Kansas City Royals, Reds and Astros since his debut in 2004. The last-place Astros received right-handed starter Henry Sosa and right-hander reliever Jason Stoffel. You dont like to see a guy like Keppinger go, Mills said. Hes such a professional hitter. Im sorry to see him go, but Im happy for him. Its an exciting time, I think, for the organization. We got a couple good arms, it sounds like not just looking at their numbers, but the reports on them, as well. The two guys we got look to be pretty solid players.

Vick takes animal rights campaign to Congress

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick brought his anti-dogghting message to Congress on Tuesday, backing legislation that would penalize those who knowingly attend animal ghts and allow minors to attend. Vick, who served 18 months in prison on dogghting charges, said he wants to teach kids not to repeat

his mistakes and to take profits away from sponsors of these events. The football star has been speaking at churches and schools along with Wayne Pacelle, president and chief executive officer of the Humane Society of the United States. Pacelle told the news conference, I had a lot of soul searching to do before deciding to partner with Vick in efforts to stop animal ghting events. Baccei said. They play very loose and they play very condent. They think they can beat anybody at any time. Weve played South City four times and we split with them and theyre probably the best team were going to face. Theyre capable of beating any team on any day. With someone like Pagano on the mound for the Titans, that idea isnt too far-fetched. In last weeks regular season closer, the right-hander went 6 2/3 innings, picking up the win in a 9-5 win over Millbrae. But while Pagano has carried the majority of the load, it hasnt been just him. Austin Park and Stephen Pitts have both stepped up to pitch considerable innings for the Titans. Its been everybody, Baccei said, Almost everyone has gone at least 20 or 30 innings in the year.

Help us to reach out to these kids before they go down the wrong path, Vick said. The Hampton, Va. native said that while he became involved in dogfighting in his youth, he was unaware that more children are now attending these gruesome events. He said his own experience taught him that attending animal ghts has an impact on children. Its up to the parents to take Stacked with the arms on the mound, Baccei thinks the key to success lies elsewhere though. We have to hit the ball. We have to score runs, Baccei said. I know a lot of the teams that were playing, South City especially and Reno as well, they hit the ball really well. Were going to have to score 10 runs a game. Were not going to go out there and throw a shutout. Its not going to happen. But offensively, Baccei believes he has the repower. Sato has been leading the way, but players like Nick Serrata and JT Tawasha, have contributed all season long. Nobody is a superstar, Baccei said, everyone is working together. Thats whats good about the team. San Mateo Palomino and

responsibility and make sure it doesnt happen, he said. Sponsors of the legislation said the laws against animal fighting need to be strengthened. It is illegal in 49 states to be a knowing spectator at an animal ght, while 28 impose felony-level penalties on those attending. The bill would impose penalties of up to a year in prison and nes for attending an animal ght, and a American Legion Elsewhere in the county, two familiar faces will be making trips to the postseason. The San Mateo White Sox will try to duplicate the success of last years team that made it to within a win of the World Series title. San Mateo earned a No. 2 seed in the double elimination bracket. All games in the Palomino Zone championships will be played in at Washington Park in Santa Clara. I have never gone into the playoffs with a team that I have trusted more than this one, said Palomino manager Lenny Souza, who has led his team to a 24-8 record, 13-5 in league. The White Sox dodged a bit of a bullet as they enter the tournament, avoiding teams like Mountain

penalty of up to three years in prison and nes for bringing or allowing a minor to attend. The main sponsors of the legislation are Reps. Betty Sutton, D-Ohio, and Tom Marino, R-Pa., with Rep.

While Souza hasnt officially announced his starter for game one, he did say his staff was leaning towards left hander Pierce Precht in game one on Wednesday, followed by Mitch Labbie in game two. For the San Mateo Shockers, a two-game sweep of San Carlos stamped their ticket for Yountville and the Legion State Tournament. Ryan Strombom picked up the win in that game. Andre Mercurio had three hits, including a home run to go with his five RBIs. The Shockers nished league play at 102, 16-10-1 overall.

Sports brief
Blue Jays to retire Roberto Alomars No. 12
TORONTO The Toronto Blue Jays are retiring former second baseman Roberto Alomars No. 12 before their game against the Texas Rangers on July 31. It will be the first time the Blue Jays have retired a number worn by one of the teams players in the clubs 35-year history. Jackie Robinsons No. 42 was retired by Major League Baseball in 1997. Team President and CEO Paul Beeston said Tuesday that Alomar is arguably the best second baseman of all time. In five years with the Blue Jays, he helped them win the World Series in 1992 and 1993. This is an honor that I was not expecting, Alomar said in a statement. I knew my numbers were worthy of consideration for the Hall of Fame but for the Blue Jays to select my No. 12 to be the first number they retire is a great honor. I am truly blessed to be a Blue Jay and Im looking forward to the ceremony. Alomar and former Blue Jays general manager Pat Gillick will be inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame on July 24. Alomar said he was caught by surprise when Beeston called to tell him about retiring his number.

Burial or Cremation: Why does this matter?

By Paul Larson
MILLBRAE Are you ever asked the question: Burial or Cremation? Im sure youve thought about this but have you ever seriously thought about this? It is tough for some of us to give this topic the time of day but for many more of us this is a topic of curiosity, and also a topic we will need to deal with at some point in our lives. Burial or Cremation is always a personal choice but did you know that in the long run there is little difference between the two, also a BIG difference but not in the way you think? In the eyes of the state both Burial and Cremation are considered a form of final disposition. Still, it is not that simple. A basic explanation would be this: Burial is a final location; Cremation is a step to a final location. What does this mean? In scenario number one: following a visitation & funeral service the deceased is taken to a specific cemetery to be placed in either a ground burial location or a mausoleum space BUT in a second scenario: following that same visitation & funeral service the deceased would be taken to a crematory to complete the cremation process. When the cremated remains are ready a choice would be needed by the next of kin on whether the cremated remains are to be buried in a cemetery, scattered at sea, taken home, etc. So, when Cremation is selected, Burial can still be the final disposition following the cremation, among other choices. People dont deal with this topic every day, and I know that it is imagined by some that Cremation means the deceased is taken away and will just disappear. That is never the case, and there is always the necessity to properly give the deceased a final resting place. The state legally requires it, and the funeral home is mandated to complete & file necessary paperwork reflecting it prior to any final disposition. I know all this may seem complicated, but it is our job as Funeral Directors to make it all very simple and guide you every step of the way. It is our duty to support families as they maneuver through a sometimes daunting situation and unfamiliar territory, and to provide various options on what is available. Many prefer to make pre-need arrangements years in advance so choices can be made in a more relaxed atmosphere. Pause and imagine yourself as the next of kin following the death of a loved one and being asked the question Burial or Cremation?. Can you knowledgeably answer that? It may be a good idea to at least give the question some thought now. Ive served a few families in the past who couldnt answer that question and ended up making a quick decision they later regretted. It wont hurt to let this topic cross your mind, or even to discuss this question with your family, loved ones, clergy or those who give you support. Look back at your family traditions and use that as a guide. Its important for those who care to have a way to say farewell, and for many to have a place to go following the funeral as a way to visit and begin the healing process. If you ever wish to discuss cremation, funeral matters or want to make preplanning arrangements please feel free to call me and my staff at the CHAPEL OF THE HIGHLANDS in Millbrae at (650) 588-5116 and we will be happy to guide you in a fair and helpful manner.

NATION / WORLD
als average soared 202 points, the biggest oneday leap this year. Treasury officials say that without an increase in U.S. borrowing authority by Aug. 2, the government will not be able to pay all its bills, and default could result in severe conseJim Jordan quences for the economy. Yet a few hours after Obama spoke at the White House, supporters of the newly passed House measure breathed deance. Let me be clear. This is the compromise. This is the best plan out there, said Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, head of a conservative group inside the House known as the Republican Study Committee. The legislation, dubbed Cut, Cap and Balance by supporters and backed by tea party activists, would make an estimated $111 billion in immediate reductions and ensure that overall spending declined in the future in relation to the overall size of the economy. It also would require both houses of Congress to approve a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution and send it to the states for ratification. The amendment itself would require a supermajority vote in both houses of Congress for any future tax raises. With time dwindling, the days events did little to suggest a harmonious end was imminent in a dening clash between the two political parties. Senate Democrats have announced they will oppose the House passed-measure, although it could take two or three days to reject it. Yet there were signs that with Tuesday nights vote behind them, House Republican leaders might pivot swiftly. Even before the vote, Speaker John Boehner told reporters that it also was responsible to look at what Plan B would look like. And House Majority Leader Eric Cantor issued a statement saying of the Gang of Six proposal: This bipartisan plan does seem to include some constructive ideas to deal with our debt. Debate in the House was along predictable lines, and only nine Republicans opposed the bill and ve Democrats supported it on nal passage. Our bloated and obese federal budget needs a healthy and balanced diet, one that trims the fat of overspending and grows the muscle of our nations economy, said Rep. Reid Ribble of Wisconsin during debate on the measure. Ribble is one of 87 rst-term House Republicans determined to reduce the size of government.

House passes deficit-cutting bill

Around the world

Murdoch evades blame for hack scandal at hearing
LONDON Summoned by British lawmakers Tuesday to account for a phone hacking and bribery scandal, Rupert Murdoch said he was humbled and ashamed but accepted no personal responsibility, insisting he was at fault only for trusting the wrong people at a now-defunct tabloid that made up a tiny portion of his vast media empire. The 80-year-old media tycoon endured a three-hour grilling from lawmakers and escaped attempts to draw to tar him with individual blame for the scandal that has rocked his empire and embroiled Britains top police, politicians and many journalists. Murdoch appeared confused and ustered in the beginning of the parliamentary committee hearing, turning frequently to his son James for answers. But he regained his trademark cool and condently told the committee that he wasnt responsible for eavesdropping or bribing police. He also said he had no plans of resigning. He stayed seated when a prankster tried to throw a foam pie, splattering his suit jacket before Murdochs 42-year-old wife sprang to his aid, slapping the man, who was quickly arrested.

WASHINGTON Defying a veto threat, the Republican-controlled House voted Tuesday night to slice federal spending by $6 trillion and require a constitutional balanced budget amendment to be sent to the states in exchange for averting a threatened Aug. 2 government default. The 234-190 vote marked the power of deeply conservative rst-term Republicans, and it stood in contrast to calls at the White House and in the Senate for a late stab at bipartisanship to solve the nations looming debt crisis. President Barack Obama and a startling number of Republican senators lauded a decit-reduction plan put forward earlier in the day by a bipartisan Gang of Six lawmakers that calls for $1 trillion in what sponsors delicately called additional revenue and some critics swiftly labeled as higher taxes. The president said he hoped congressional leaders would start talking turkey on a deal to reduce decits and raise the $14.3 trillion debt limit as soon as Wednesday, using that plan as a roadmap. Wall Street cheered the news of possible compromise as well. The Dow Jones industri-

Pakistan: Shelling from Afghanistan kills 4 troops

ISLAMABAD Mortar shells and artillery red from Afghanistan killed four Pakistani paramilitary troops in a tribal region Tuesday, the Pakistani army said. It was the latest in a spate of cross-border attacks that have raised tensions between Kabul and Islamabad. Army spokesman Maj. Gen. Athar Abbas said the Frontier Corps soldiers died in the Angoor Ada area of South Waziristan, a northwestern region where the military has fought the Pakistani Taliban. The military relies heavily on paramilitary troops to police the lengthy, porous border. Abbas did not blame any particular faction, but Western forces, Afghan troops and Taliban militants all operate along various parts of the Afghan side of the border. There was no immediate response from NATO in Kabul. In recent weeks, militants have crossed the frontier on several occasions and attacked Pakistani villages, leaving dozens of people dead, according to Pakistani ofcials. Firing from across the border is also not unprecedented.

Mission Control to go quiet after shuttle lands

By Seth Borenstein
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HOUSTON In the geeky world of space engineering, this large, high-ceilinged room is close to holy. Inside, people speak in hushed tones and observe time-honored traditions. The place is Mission Control. Beginning moments after launch, ight controllers here choreograph everything astronauts do, from waking up and eating to walking in space. That building, we think of it as a cathedral of spaceight, said John McCullough, head of NASAs ight director ofce. Flight controllers are the keepers and enforcers of traditions that date back to the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo days. You just feel the ghosts when you are in that room, McCullough said. When Atlantis lands Thursday, the famous room will seem even more ghostly. After 30 years and 135 missions, shuttles will no longer need controlling. NASA plans to turn the space into a training

venue, mostly for astronauts going to the International Space Station and ight controllers working with the station. Over the next couple of months, 800 or 900 people in the mission operations division will be laid off, said Paul Hill, head of that division and a former ight director himself. As proud as we are of our success ... I have to keep that in perspective with the 90 percent of the workforce that will no longer be part of that effort, Hill said. Kwatsi Alibaruho, ight director for this nal mission, said the specter of so many ight controllers without jobs is kind of following us through the halls. Laura Slovey, a 29-year-old ight controller for contractor United Space Alliance, worked Atlantislaunch and will handle mechanical issues for landing. She got her pink slip, but then it was retracted. Once Atlantis lands, instead of trying to solve last-minute problems like a stuck shuttle hatch, shell be working on a new docking system

for the space station. Some of Sloveys colleagues also will move to Mission Control for the space station, which operates in a separate room in the same building. Its a slower pace than controlling the highly choreographed shuttle missions. The original Mission Control of the Apollo era with its bulky green computer terminals is in another part of the building and is a national historic landmark. The current Mission Control is a special shuttle-oriented control room built 16 years ago to supervise the last 65 missions. When it was unveiled, with its dark blue consoles, giant wallsized video screen in front and fake ferns in the back, it was lauded for its modern Star Trek look. It is the center of the space world. We make the decisions. We make the missions happen, Alibaruho said. This is a special room. John Muratore, a former ight controller instrumental in designing the room, laughed when asked about the church-like feel.

Sauce of inspiration: Ketchup goes artisanal

By Michelle Locke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Theres a seasonal shift going on in the condiment firmament. Ketchup, the big red staple of American pantries, is catching up with the cool crowd as chefs and food entrepreneurs seek new inspiration. Its a very exciting time to be making ketchup, says Scott Norton, who with Mark Ramadan founded the recently launched Sir Kensingtons Gourmet Scooping Ketchup. Organic ketchup, spicy ketchup, gourmet ketchup, curry ketchup, all have blossomed in recent years, a development that James Oseland, editor-in-chief of Saveur magazine, has noted with approval. Who doesnt love a good catsup? he points out. About the whole ketchup vs. catsup thing like tomato vs. tomahto, this seems to be a matter of personal choice. Oseland uses both depending on his mood. The big tomato in American sauce, of course, is Heinz, which launched its ketchup in 1876. Interestingly, this wasnt the companys rst venture; Heinz began with a horseradish sauce in 1869. Today, more than 650 million bottles of Heinz ketchup are sold worldwide, adding up to more than $1.5 billion in annual sales. Tradition is part of the appeal of

Heinz; this year the company brought back the classic glass bottles for a limited time in stores. This is the bottle with the 57 on the neck denoting the sweet spot one taps to get the ketchup to exit at maximum velocity of .028 miles per hour. But Heinz, the market leader, also has been part of the changing sauce scene, expanding its products to include a no added salt version, organic ketchup, a Hot & Spicy bottle with a kick of Tabasco sauce, and Simply Heinz, which uses sugar instead of high-fructose corn syrup. Hunts and Del Monte are two other big names in U.S. ketchup; additional brands that have found a place on the shelf include Annies Naturals Organic Ketchup, Muir Glen Organic Ketchup, Organicville Tomato Ketchup and Stonewall Kitchen Country Ketchup, a product described as ketchup all grown up. Norton and Ramadans ketchup chronicles began about three years ago when they started cooking homemade tomato ketchup as economics majors at Brown University. We love ketchup, explains Ramadan. They thought it was curious that there only a few dominant brands of ketchup, as opposed to mustard, for instance, and thought, wouldnt it be fun to try to make something in our own kitchen. They held tasting parties and came up with two avor proles, classic and spiced, now available

ketchup comes out. In fact, it doesnt seem inappropriate at all. It seems, At last ketchup has arrived, and rightfully so.

Start to nish: 1 hour Makes 7 cups 2 tablespoons pickling spice 1 tablespoon vegetable or canola oil 1 large sweet onion, sliced Two 28-ounce cans crushed tomatoes 1 teaspoon garlic powder 1/4 teaspoon cayenne 2 teaspoons smoked paprika 2 teaspoons mustard powder 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce 3/4 cup packed brown sugar 3/4 cup cider vinegar 2 teaspoons salt 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper Using a small square of cheesecloth, tie the pickling spice into a bundle with butchers twine or string. Set aside. In a deep saute pan over medium, heat the oil. Add the onion and saute until soft and beginning to brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the tomatoes, garlic powder, cayenne, smoked paprika, mustard powder, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, cider vinegar,

online and in stores including Williams-Sonoma and Whole Foods Market. The ketchup, billed as having less sodium and sugar than leading brands, is sweetened with agave nectar, honey and raw brown sugar and includes apple cider vinegar for a tangy kick. Other ingredients include coriander, lime juice, allspice, cilantro and cayenne pepper. In some ways the concept of gourmet ketchup sounds slightly oxymoronic. Ketchup, a burgers best friend, is unabashedly of the people and a product that tends to stir strong opinions. The question of eggs, to sauce or not to sauce, can be particularly thorny and describing someone as calling for ketchup in a fancy restaurant is shorthand for gaucherie. Oseland didnt much care for ketchup as a kid, but was won over as an adult, probably after trying french fries with the accompanying foil packet of sauce. Since then hes absolutely grown to appreciate ketchup as really one of the most blessed condiments. He notes that many overdo it and drown their food, not a good plan. But the idea that ketchup lacks cachet is just patent foolishness. Hes tickled when sitting in a posh, white tablecloth restaurant and a beautiful silver-plated tureen of

She draws her inspiration from living in the Bay Area, a multicultural community, and transforms traditional Italian avors to new avors such as chocolate bacon, cilantro lemon sorbet, taro and rose. A customer once requested Thai tea gelato, she said. Wong went to a Thai restaurant and ordered Thai tea to gure out how to recreate the avor. She reminds herself to try and perfect new avors. Each pan I create is almost like an artwork, Wong said. I compare it to fashion as being one of a kind.

In a moment of vacation desperation, my sons dream sandwich was born. It was late. My son was hungry, tired and cranky. Wed just arrived at our rental apartment and there was virtually no food in the refrigerator. All I could scrounge were a couple slices of whole-wheat bread, a bit of sliced ham and some cream cheese. So I combined them into what was a surprise instant (and much lauded by the 6-year-old set) hit that went on to become my sons new go-to sandwich. Now that were back home, I decided to play with it a bit and see if I could up the nutrition. After all, if hes going to eat this all the time, the bread shouldnt be the peak of its nutritional prole. So I added some baby spinach and oilpacked sundried tomatoes. Now it wasnt just delicious, but also ever-so-slightly more nutritious. The avors also were signicantly more sophisticated. Which meant I no longer mind-

ed indulging in one myself. Though I call for toasting the sandwich, you can skip that part. You also can toast it, then let it cool and pack it for lunch. The toasting adds a pleasant crunch that is nice even when the sandwich isnt warm.

areas, revealed its likely at least a portion of the site would be for sale, City Manager Jim Nantell wrote in a June 1 staff report. Thursdays meeting will act as a brainstorming session with discussion of the sites limitations, opinions from developers about potential use and input from the council. The grassy property fronting Lorton Avenue and parking lot could be for sale in the next few months sparking a need for the special meeting. Property could be sold with the intention of the government leasing back a portion of the building to meet postal needs. If the entire site were to be sold, it would be an estimated 52,500 square feet. While no price has been listed, the city estimated it to be worth about $5 million, Nantell

wrote in the staff report. Burlingame is only one of the interested parties. Calls have come as far away as the Middle East, according to the report. Some guidance for the area could be found in functions of the committee is immediate dismissal with prejudice. No other remedy exists to cure this misconduct, Brand said. Waters has repeatedly said she did nothing improper, and had no role in the Obama administrations decision to bail out Boston-based OneUnited Bank. The congresswomans husband, Sidney Williams, owns stock in the bank, and his investment was in danger of becoming worthless during the near-nancial collapse of late 2008. OneUnited received $12 million in bailout money in December 2008. But Treasury Department ofcials have told House investigators that Waters was not involved in that decision. Waters contended she had supported legislation to help all troubled, minority-owned banks like OneUnited and specically those, like OneUnited, that were

the citys downtown specic plan which was approved late last year. A creek runs under a portion of the property, which, under the plan, could one day be uncovered to create a unique town square-like space. If the lot including the building were to be put up for sale, the building could be used for civic purposes, according to the downtown specic plan. The plan also outlines possible uses for the area including retail, personal services, business, ofces and upstairs residential units. Before any development could occur, a historic assessment would need to be completed on the post ofce. The council meets 5 p.m. Thursday, July 21 in the Lane Room at the Burlingame Public Library, 480 Primrose Road, Burlingame.

Rep.Waters seeks dismissal of ethics case
WASHINGTON Rep. Maxine Waters on Tuesday sought dismissal of House Ethics Committee allegations that she tried to obtain a federal bailout for a bank where her husband is an investor. Her lawyer said misconduct and partisanship in the committee made a fair ethics proceeding impossible. Waters attorney Stanley Brand cited internal documents showing a close relationship between two former committee lawyers in the case and Republican committee members. Waters is a California Democrat and a senior member of the House Financial Services Committee. Based on the facts of the case and the record of committee misconduct, the only remedy that vindicates the principals of the quasi-judicial

hurt by their investments in the then-collapsing mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Brand said that the conduct of some committee members and staff violated Waters constitutional rights. Internal documents showed that the two former lawyers regularly corresponded exclusively last year with Rep. Jo Bonner of Alabama, then the ranking Republican and now the chairman. The two lawyers, C. Morgan Kim and Stacy Sovereign, were suspended last year by the previous Democratic chairman, Zoe Lofgren of California. Neither accepted Bonners offer earlier this year to reinstate them.

Calls for global actors rights

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

GENEVA In the 2008-lm No Country for Old Men Javier Bardems hitman character mercilessly collected unpaid debts with a deadly bolt gun. When it comes to movie pirates, the 42-year-old Academy Award winner is more understanding. People dont have money and movie tickets are sometimes too high, Bardem told reporters in Geneva on Tuesday. I understand that. Still, Bardem says freeloading off others hurts the nine in 10 actors who already struggle to pay the bills with

their work. What I dont agree with is the mentality of the people, that to do piracy is ne, the Spanish actor said. Bardem traveled to Geneva to support a Javier Bardem new international treaty protecting actors rights across the globe. He was joined by Egyptian actress Esaad Younis, British producer Iain Smith and Indian director Bobby Bedi. The World Intellectual Property plus not diversifying the pools holdings, violated the countys own policies and state law, according to the suit. The suit seeks $20 million plus interest. In June, San Francisco Superior Court Judge Richard Kramer ruled that state law protected the county from being sued for negligence and breach of duciary duty. Kramer also said the suit wasnt brought in a timely manner and wasnt specic enough about how the county allegedly breached its contract. Until October 2009, the county served as duciary agents for the districts, giving them no reason to be suspicious the county was guilty of improper or wrongful conduct, the suit states. In the amended complaint, Neuman states he informed Carlson he didnt mind delaying formal ling as long as we are moving forward. After Carlson indicated in March 2009 the county was not interested in Neumans proposal to begin voluntary said Caton was wearing a wetsuit with gloves, boots and a hat, and had a personal otation device. She also had a radio with her, but the batteries died in the middle of the night. As she oated in the dark, she could see rescue crews searching for her, but couldnt get their attention, her husband said. She was shouting and they went by, he said. Fortunately she got spotted before she got too cold.

Organization is currently hosting talks on a draft treaty that is expected to be approved by governments next year. Bardem called for actors to get the same protection as musicians and writers, including the right to earn money from the use of their performance beyond a lms original release. He also said he wants movie tickets to be cheaper that way even would-be pirates go to see a lm at the theater once in a while. Has he ever downloaded a lm or song illegally? I barely can put on my iPhone, Bardem said. discovery and mediation, he replied with an email notice that my clients will le a lawsuit. Neither Carlson nor anyone else from the county ever notied Neuman that the notice didnt comply with the legal requirements to rst le a claim, the suit states. The entities also agreed the window for ling a claim or suit would end Sept. 14, 2010. The districts led a claim Sept. 13, 2010 and it was rejected Oct. 19, 2010. The original suit was led Jan. 4, 2011. At the time of Kramers June ruling, attorney Stuart Gasner, who represents both the county and Bufngton, said the suit unfairly attacks the county for failing to predict the collapse of Lehman Brothers.

LAWSUIT
Continued from page 1
The lawsuit argues the county and Bufngton should have pulled investment pool funds prior to the Sept. 15, 2008 collapse of Lehman Brothers. The pool is a collection of 1,050 different accounts from cities, school districts and special agencies. The Lehman bankruptcy on Sept. 15, 2008 leeched approximately $155 million from the pool, including $25 million from the San Mateo County Transportation Authority. The school districts alone lost approximately $20 million because of what the suit called a high-stakes gamble. Lehmans stock was plunging and its nancial troubles were being widely recognized but the county and Bufngton held onto all nine of its Lehman notes, the suit states. Doing so,

RESCUE
Continued from page 1
Pulliam was lowered to her from the helicopter, and hoisted her to safety. It was a complete team effort, Pulliam said. It started with the survivor wearing the right gear. Catons husband, Steven Hamman,

Once she was back on shore, Caton opted to head home with her husband instead of going to a hospital. Shes ne now, though a little cold, he said. Pulliam said Caton was lucky, and was helped by the fact that the water in that area is about 70 degrees much warmer than some other parts of the Bay. Some of these situations dont turn out as well as we hope, Pulliam said.

WEDNESDAY, JULY 20, 2011

Dont give up too easily on your reasonable hopes and expectations, because, perhaps for the first time in your life, you should be able to get on a solid track to success. Keep the faith and play to win regardless of the circumstances.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Even if you believe

your way of doing something is superior to that of others, dont impose your ideas on them. Listen, because you may learn a better way of accomplishing the goal. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Unless you take some time

to study what is involved, you could make a commitment that youll regret. There might be a lot more to the job than you thought. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Borrowing something of value might be a bad idea, but, if for some reason you must, be extremely careful about how the object is handled, so that it isnt damaged or stolen. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- If youre entertaining at your place and a guest brings along an uninvited friend who turns out to be a jerk, graciously ignore it. It could ruin the whole affair if it becomes an issue. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Should a dirty job or a nasty responsibility be foisted upon you, take it in stride as best as you can. It will only make the situation worse if you air it out in front of others.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Circumstances

similar to ones that existed in the past when you made a bad mistake might be occurring again. Take your cues from what you learned and handle it differently this time. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- No one can live up to your expectations if your demands are unreasonable. Be honest about what you want, and dont ask another to do for you what you can do for yourself. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Should a co-worker who is usually easy to get along with be a little testy, be forgiving, not vindictive. Toss aside all thoughts of getting even. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- There is a good chance that an excursion that wasnt intended to be

expensive could quickly get out of hand. Dont be a tightwad, but dont be foolishly extravagant either. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- It isnt enough to have good intentions, you must think things through before simply reacting. Otherwise you could unintentionally do something that others would find offensive. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Keeping proper records could become imperative when you are called on the carpet to explain what and why you did something. If you want to win your case, leave nothing to memory. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Mixing business with pleasure might turn out to be a bad mistake when a member of your group overdoses on food or wine. It wont generate the impression you wanted to make.

If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within four months from the date of first issuance of letters as provided in Probate Code section 9100. The time for filing claims will not expire before four months from the hearing date noticed above. You may examine the file kept by the court.
