Wanna-be gawker accused of post-fire fraud
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A man curious to see the aftermath of the
deadly San Bruno explosion lied about living
in the disaster zone in hopes of securing a
driver’s license that would allow him access
to the site, according to prosecutors.
David Liam O’Brien, 34, of San Francisco,
will appear in court Friday on charges of bur-
glary and perjury. Although the deadly fire
and O’Brien’s alleged crime were in
September, he wasn’t arrested on a $25,000
warrant until April. He posted bail and was
cited to appear today.
According to prosecutors, O’Brien went to
the victim center on Sept. 13, four days after
the Sept. 9 disaster that left eight dead and
dozens of homes destroyed, and applied for a
driver’s license using an address found on the
Internet which is located within the affected
neighborhood.
O’Brien didn’t seek money or food as
other convicted post-fire scammers did.

O’Brien was able to secure a license but

All the world’s a stage
Unique drama collaboration pairs high school,elementary students
By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A groom dealing with gender identity
issues, a soldier who isn’t keen on his wife
and Nicki Minaj made a visit to Laurel
Elementary School in San Mateo Thursday.
It wasn’t a career day gone awry nor a con-
cert by the fast-talking female rapper.
Instead, the lunchtime performance brought
to life the collaboration of a number of stu-
dents. Hillsdale High School drama students
paired up with fourth and fifth graders from
Laurel to create some unique plays.
Students from the San Mateo elementary
school collaborated to create their own
unique stories inspired by covers of The New
Yorker. Those stories were given to the
Hillsdale students who created short plays
from the work, some of which incorporated
numerous stories. On Thursday morning, the
drama students performed the plays for the
authors and a few Laurel parents.
Ten-year-old Ellie B. wrote the “Million
Dollar Bike Race,” a story in which a guy
enters a bike race against a world champion
in hopes of winning $900,000 — more than
enough to pay off his brother’s debt while
earning his respect.
Ellie thought the teens nailed the story.
From a director’s point of view, she may
have tweaked the ending, but had no criti-
cism for the actors who also adapted the
scripts.
The process was definitely collaborative.
The Hillsdale students met with Laurel stu-
dents who shared their stories, then worked
for several weeks to adapt and rehearse the
plays, adding props and costumes to help the
plots come alive, Hillsdale drama teacher
Allison Gamlen explained.
Gamlen was happy with the performance
and said it was a good lesson for her students
about what’s funny for kids. For some of the
high school students, Thursday was their first
performance ever.
Fifth-grade teacher Janet Chappell really
enjoyed the project. Chappell saw the origi-
nal stories produced by her students and also
Thursday’s performance, which had been
tweaked by the teens. Having the chance to
see both gave her an appreciation of the work
done by all students.
Students covered a variety of topics in their
stories from a monologue about the recent
success of the World Series champions San
Francisco Giants to Cupid’s real thoughts on

archery — here’s a hint, he’s against it.
Imagination was easy to spot as plays includ-
ed helicopter rides where the left side show-
cases Italian landmarks while the right
allows the passenger to see the Statue of
Liberty.
The performance was a trial run for the two
schools, which was modeled after a success-
ful partnership between Capuchino High
School and Green Hills Elementary School
that began last year.
The collaboration came up when fourth-
grade teacher Doe Newiger contacted
Capuchino drama teacher Cindy Skelton.
Skelton previously taught one of Newiger’s
children and the Capuchino teens used to put
on a childhood theater performance for local
elementary schools. When Newiger heard the
children’s performance wouldn’t happen last
year, she suggested the unique partnership.
Earlier this week, the Capuchino students
HEATHER MURTAGH/DAILY JOURNAL
performed seven stories from Trish Althaus’
fourth-grade class, said Skelton.
“The Greenhills students were a very atten-
tive audience and seemed to really appreciate
the effort, energy and silliness that my stu-
dents brought to the productions,” she said.
Capuchino students worked on the project
for about two months. This year’s story chal-
lenges included one that took place under
water, a space ship that crashes but gets
fixed, creating a jail cell, and deciding how
one would play Jet Ball — a game played in
the air while using jet packs, Skelton said.

Flames were coming through the roof of the

Madison Avenue when firefighters arrived
shortly after 12:45 p.m., Redwood City fire bat-

The duplex consists of two units separated by

Maupin said.
Firefighters confined the blaze to the garage
and had it under control in about 45 minutes, he
said.
Forty-six firefighters responded, and the
response included eight engines and two ladder
trucks.
No one was injured or displaced by the blaze,
Maupin said. One of the units was vacant at the
time of the fire.
S.F.bans unsolicited
Yellow Pages drop-offs
SAN FRANCISCO — San Francisco has
banned the unsolicited distribution of Yellow
Pages with the first such ordinance in the nation.
The San Francisco Chronicle reports that
Mayor Ed Lee quietly signed the ban into law
on May 19 to cut the number of unwanted
phone books being dropped into city neighbor-
hoods.
The Local Search Association, a commercial
phone book industry trade group, has threatened
to sue, saying the ban violates its members’
rights.
David Chiu, president of the city’s Board of
Supervisors, said the ban was needed because
the unsolicited books degraded the environment
and blighted neighborhoods.
The law is scheduled to take effect next year
and will bar companies from leaving unsolicit-
ed books on porches without the permission of
the residence or business.

California to change sex-offender tracking
By Don Thompson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO — Buried under a tidal
wave of electronic data, California parole
agents next week will significantly change
how they monitor and respond to alarms from
tracking devices that are affixed to released
sex offenders, the Associated Press has
learned.
An internal California Department of
Corrections report obtained by The AP found
that a typical parole agent spent 44 percent of
her workweek reviewing the computer-
tracked movements of parolees, and just 12
percent in the field.
They’ll get some relief Wednesday, when
the companies that provide the satellite-
linked ankle bracelets will begin screening
the tens of thousands of electronic alarms that
flood in each month. The companies will for-
ward the most serious alerts to parole agents
while weeding out those that signal more
mundane problems such a low battery or lost
cell phone signal.
Corrections officials fear parole agents’
Around the state
Assembly limits using
immigration check in arrests
SACRAMENTO — Democrats in
California’s Assembly joined other states
Thursday in questioning the federal system
that uses fingerprints to check the immigration
status of people picked up by police.
The Assembly approved AB1081 on a 43-
22 party line vote after heated debate over
public safety and whether the measure would
help or hurt it.
The bill would add new restrictions and let
counties opt out of the state agreement on use
of the Secure Communities automatic finger-
print program to screen for citizenship and
criminal background.
The legislation now moves to the state
Senate.
Other states have taken similar steps amid
complaints the program is supposed to help
deport convicted felons but has also swept up
crime victims, witnesses and people who were
arrested but never convicted.
Assemblyman Tom Ammiano, D-San
Francisco, argued that his bill would protect
public safety because immigrants would be
more willing to report crime if they didn’t fear
deportation.
The fingerprint program “has actually
harmed public safety and seriously undercut
community policing strategies,” he said.
LOCAL/STATE/NATION
“The whole purpose of trying
this out is to enable the parole
agents to focus more on direct supervision.”
— Corrections Department spokeswoman Terry Thornton
lack of personal contact can embolden
released sex offenders to harass their previ-
ous victims or commit new crimes. They are
seeking to minimize the sort of information
fatigue that inadvertently helped paroled
rapist Phillip Garrido keep a kidnapped
woman captive for 18 years.
“The whole purpose of trying this out is to
enable the parole agents to focus more on
direct supervision,” Corrections Department
spokeswoman Terry Thornton said.
The companies that provide the GPS equip-
ment also will screen the alerts in selected
areas and attempt to contact parolees if, for
instance, their bracelets have lost contact or
the battery has run low. Parole agents will be
contacted if the parolee cannot be reached or
if an alert signals a danger, such as a parolee
getting too close to a victim’s home.

Congress passes Patriot Act extension
House sends terrorism-fighting bill to President Obama billion defense bill
By Jim Abrams
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Congress on
Thursday passed a four-year extension
of post-Sept. 11 powers to search
records and conduct roving wiretaps in
pursuit of terrorists. Votes taken in rapid
succession in the Senate and House
came after lawmakers rejected attempts
to temper the law enforcement powers to
ensure that individual liberties are not
abused.
Following the 250-153 evening vote in
the House, the legislation to renew three
terrorism-fighting authorities headed for
the president’s signature with only hours
to go before the provisions expire at
midnight.
With Obama currently in Europe, the
White House said the president would
use an autopen machine that holds a pen
and signs his actual signature. It is only
used with proper authorization of the
president. Obama will be awakened by
5:45 a.m. in France so he can review and
approve the bill and authorize his signa-
ture, the White House said.
A short-term expiration would not
interrupt ongoing operations but would
bar the government from seeking war-
rants for new investigations.
Congress bumped up against the dead-
line mainly because of the stubborn
resistance from a single senator,
Republican freshman Rand Paul of
Kentucky, who saw the terrorist-hunting
powers as an abuse of privacy rights.
Paul held up the final vote for several

The measure would add four years to

WASHINGTON — War-weary Republicans and Democrats
on Thursday sent the strongest message yet to President
Barack Obama to end the war in Afghanistan as the com-
mander in chief decides how many U.S. troops to withdraw
this summer.
A measure requiring an accelerated timetable for pulling out
the 100,000 troops from Afghanistan and an exit strategy for
the nearly 10-year-old conflict secured 204 votes in the House,
falling just short of passage but boosting the hopes of its sur-
prised proponents.
“It sends a strong signal to the president that the U.S. House
of Representatives and the American people want change,”
Rep. Jim McGovern, D-Mass., said shortly after the vote.
Obama will begin drawing down some of the troops in July,
with all combat forces due out by 2014. McGovern and others
fear that the initial reduction will be a token cut of some 5,000,
numbers they argue fail to reflect that Osama bin Laden is gone
and the United States can’t afford spending $10 billion a
month on the war.
An Associated Press-GfK poll earlier this month found 59
percent oppose the war and 37 percent favor it, with significant
support for Obama’s plan to start removing troops this sum-
mer.
“Five thousand on July 1 and nothing else, that won’t fly,”
said Rep. John Garamendi, D-Calif. “That will create a great
deal of anger.”
Twenty-six Republicans joined 178 Democrats in backing
the Afghanistan measure. Eight Democrats and 207
Republicans opposed it. In the Democratic-controlled House
last July, a similar measure got 162 votes. The tally on
Thursday reflected the increasing exasperation in Congress
with the costly war, even among the typically more hawkish
Republicans.
But among the measure’s foes, Rep. Mike Coffman, R-
Colo., said the accelerated timetable “would pull the rug out of
the entire strategy,” and Rep. Mac Thornberry, R-Texas, said
“the sacrifice of blood and treasure will be thrown away for
considerable impatience.”
The divisive issue was part of three days of debate on a
broad, $690 billion defense bill that would provide a 1.6 per-
cent increase in military pay, fund an array of aircraft, ships
and submarines and increase health care fees slightly for work-
ing-age military retirees. The bill meets the Pentagon’s request
for $119 billion to fight wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Missile issue a sticking point for Obama,Medvedev By Nancy Benac
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DEAUVILLE, France — It is no simple
thing to push the “reset” button on U.S.-
Russian relations.
Trying to move beyond years of inherited
mistrust, President Barack Obama and Russian
President Dmitry Medvedev claimed progress
Thursday but achieved no breakthrough on a
U.S. missile defense plan that Moscow is con-
cerned could threaten its security.
The two leaders went out of their way to
stress — four times over — that their relation-
ship was good But Medvedev also acknowl-
edged: “It does not mean that we’ll have com-
mon views and coinciding views on all the
issues. It’s impossible.”
And a White House aide acknowledged that
on the missile defense question, for years the
single most confrontational issue in the U.S.-
Russian relationship, both sides still were try-
ing to overcome “old thinking,” and the
Russians, in short, “don’t believe us.”
The two sides have long been in negotia-
tions over U.S. intentions to station missile
REUTERS interceptors in Central and Eastern Europe.
Barack Obama,left,and Russia’s President Dmitry Medvedev arrive at the G8 summit. Russia believes the plan could threaten its own
missile arsenal despite U.S. assurances to the
contrary.
Medvedev expressed confidence the matter
would be resolved, though not anytime soon
— perhaps in the year 2020, he suggested.
Obama, for his part, said the two sides
would keep working to find “an approach and
configuration that is consistent with the secu-
rity needs of both countries, that maintains the
strategic balance and deals with potential
threats that we both share.”
Obama and Medvedev met for 90 minutes
on the sidelines of a two-day summit of the
Group of Eight industrial nations, the two
leaders touching on a range of issues including
the unrest sweeping the Mideast and North
Africa, and Russia’s efforts to gain entrance to
the World Trade Organization. The G-8
nations, in their sessions, are devoting consid-
erable attention to how best to support the
democratic stirrings of the Arab Spring.
In his meeting with Medvedev, Obama
pointed to U.S.-Russian cooperation on a
range of issues and said the two countries had
successfully “reset” relations during his
administration. But the missile dispute offered
fresh evidence that the reshaping requires
overcoming long traditions of mistrust.

Seven U.S.troops among dead in Afghanistan
By Deb Riechmann and Mirwais Khan
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KABUL, Afghanistan — Nine NATO serv-
ice members were killed Thursday in
Afghanistan, including seven U.S. troops
among eight who died when a powerful
bomb exploded in a field where they were
patrolling on foot, officials said.
Two Afghan policemen also died and two
others were wounded in the explosion in the
mountainous Shorabak district of Kandahar
province, 12 miles (19 kilometers) from the
Pakistan border, said Gen. Abdul Raziq,
chief of the Afghan border police in the
province.
“Two months ago, we cleared this area of
terrorists, but still they are active there,”
Raziq said.
The Taliban claimed responsibility for the
blast.
“A bomb was planted for them in a field,”
Taliban spokesman Qari Yousef Ahmadi told
the Associated Press in a telephone call.
A U.S. official, speaking on condition
of anonymity because he was not author-
ized to disclose the information, con-
firmed that seven American service mem-
bers died in the bombing.
The international military coalition report-
ed that one additional NATO service member
was killed Thursday when a helicopter
crashed in the east.
U.S. officials said seven American soldiers
were killed in the bombing. NATO said an
eighth soldier was also killed, but his nation-
ality was not immediately released.
It was the deadliest day for coalition forces
in Afghanistan since April 27, when a veter-
an Afghan military pilot opened fire at Kabul
airport and killed eight U.S. troops and an
American civilian contractor.

The meaning of Memorial Day
F
or many, Memorial Day marks
the beginning of summer. The
three-day weekend to break
out the barbecue, begin to wear white,
head to the beach with family and
maybe, just maybe, break out Old
Glory for a spin in the blustery winds
of May. For some, Memorial Day is
something to “celebrate” as it means a
day off from work and some sales at
local auto dealers or retailers. Over
the years, Memorial Day has shifted
in its meaning. Some believe it is a
day to remember all those who have
passed. That sentiment may be nice,
but it is not the true meaning of the
day.
Memorial Day is a day of remem-
brance for U.S. soldiers who died in
military service. It was first observed
in 1868, when flowers were placed on
graves of Union and Confederate sol-
diers at Arlington National Cemetery.

A recent article (“Water goals out of

End state commissions
— The (Riverside) Press-Enterprise
A
state in chronic budget trouble should not waste
money on unnecessary bureaucracy. Taxpayers will
never believe legislators are serious about fiscal
responsibility as long as the state protects needless boards and
commissions while cutting basic public services. The
Legislature should support the governor’s plan to eliminate a
host of state government panels.
Gov. Jerry Brown last week proposed to scrap 43 state
boards, commissions, task forces, offices and departments.
Some of the panels have outlived their usefulness, while others
are redundant or unnecessary, the governor argues. Brown said
the changes would save the state a total of $82.7 million
through next fiscal year, though only about half the savings
would come from the state’s deficit-ridden general fund.
The savings, of course, will not do much to close the state’s
remaining $9.6 billion shortfall through mid-2012. But such
cuts have a symbolic value beyond mere dollars to taxpayers,
who are deeply skeptical of the Legislature’s financial manage-
ment.
Brown clearly has an ulterior motive. He wants to show
Californians he is serious about cutting state costs, in hopes of
convincing voters to back his plan to extend temporary tax
hikes for five years. But regardless of political considerations,
the governor is also right to call for paring back an overgrown
state government.
Consider the Unemployment Insurance Appeals Board, one
of the panels targeted for extinction by the governor’s budget.
The board handles appeals in disputes over unemployment and
disability benefit claims. Six of the board’s seven members are
former legislators, now collecting $128,109 a year each —
more than they were paid in the Legislature. Administrative
law judges already hear unemployment insurance cases and
appeals. There is no need for a separate appeals board, other
than to provide termed-out politicians with a sinecure.
Backers of the boards and commissions contend that many
of the panels cost little, and are funded by federal money or
fees on industry. But that argument misses the point: If the
groups serve no necessary public purpose, it does not matter
who pays for them. The federal government and businesses
should not have to pay for needless government any more than
the average California taxpayer should. And any necessary
public functions of these bodies can be handled by existing
public agencies, without the need for additional bureaucracy.
If anything, the governor could go even further: Former gov-
ernor Arnold Schwarzenegger’s California Performance
Review in 2004 recommended consolidating or eliminating
117 of 339 state boards and commissions. Brown’s modest
plan still leaves plenty of state government fat to trim.
But even a start on streamlining state government is worth-
while. A state that struggles to pay its bills should not be
throwing money at nonessential bureaucracy.
Deficits? Go after
the local scofflaws
— Long Beach Press-Telegram
H
ere’s some easy money for cities strapped for cash:
Go after the slobs who park illegally in spaces
reserved for the handicapped.
They are easy to find. San Francisco has more drivers with
parking placards than it has parking meters, and loses an esti-
mated $15 million a year in parking revenue because of plac-
ard misuse. The same thing is going on in your city.
What’s worse is that people who need the parking often
can’t find it, and for some it’s more than an inconvenience. A
chronic heart ailment or severe breathing disability makes it a
serious matter to find parking near a doctor’s office.
Why not enforce the rules? Some public officials say they
have higher priorities, but if so, then do it for the money. Palo
Alto, for example, got serious a few years ago about writing
citations for violators and made it pay. According to Palo Alto
Online, the city was taking in a quarter of a million dollars a
year in ticket revenue for violations of the handicapped park-
ing law, an amount second only to overtime parking, which
rakes in about $800,000.
In recent years, the Department of Motor Vehicles has been
doing stings that accomplish three things: Scofflaws get
nailed; word gets around fast, and disabled parking spaces
start opening up; and then there’s the revenue from fines.
The penalty in California ranges from $250 to $3,500, and
jail time for up to six months. Students can be among the
worst offenders, as a sweep showed in March at Cal State
Northridge, where 15 violators lost their placards and paid
fines of $250 to $980, plus community service.
Some of the most obnoxious violators are at the race tracks.
The front row of disabled parking at Santa Anita always fills
up early, and you’ll rarely see a parking placard, much less
anyone in a wheelchair.
Maybe it’s expecting too much of business owners to
enforce parking rules. But there’s nothing to stop volunteers
from leaving nasty notes on placardless vehicles. Preferably
sticky ones.
Some people need more than a polite reminder. And cities
could use the cash.

WASHINGTON — High gasoline
prices, government budget cuts and
weaker-than-expected consumer spend-
ing caused the economy to grow only
weakly in the first three months of the
year.
The Commerce Department estimated
Thursday that the economy grew at an
annual rate of 1.8 percent in the January-
March quarter. That was the same as its
first estimate a month ago.
Consumer spending grew at just half
the rate of the previous quarter. And a
surge in imports widened the U.S. trade
deficit.

Auto versus manual
Mini Cooper and the Chevrolet Camaro compared — really
By Brian Grabionowski
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
There’s something to be said for the
part of a car that makes the difference
between an enjoyable journey, and a ride
that you want to end so badly you want
to rip your arm off and shove it into the
engine to make it jam up and explode.
It’s also the difference between driving
along the coast, soaking in the view, and
not constantly being bothered by revs
and extra pedals.
The transmission, automatic or manu-
al, tiptronic or SMG, is one of the most
important parts of a car, and should
always be considered ever so slightly
more than the engine. Transmissions are
expensive, complex machines, and
deserve the utmost respect. Depending
on how you work it, the transmission can
give you more or less power, and more
or less miles to your dollar.
The two cars in question: 2008 Mini
Cooper Clubman S and a 2010
Chevrolet Camaro SS.
The cars are polar opposites of each
other: The Mini, 172-horsepower, turbo-
charged, front-wheel drive, weighing
approximately one and a half tons; the
Camaro, 400-422 horsepower (depend-
ing on the transmission), naturally aspi-
rated, rear-wheel drive, weighing almost
two tons. How do they drive with either
transmission?
The manual Camaro is a sporty mus-
cle car, the perfect blend of performance
and style. It shifts smoothly with a
clutch pedal that depresses and expands
like a well oiled spring, has lots of power
in higher revs, everything you want in a
performance car. Driving the automatic,
however, is like trying to surf without a
board: Something’s not there.
The automatic version is almost exact-
ly the same in every way. It accelerates
the same, feels the same and looks the
same. However, there’s something miss-
ing. It feels lifeless to drive, almost bor-
ing. All in all, the automatic Camaro
leaves something to be desired — like a
spirit.
The Mini offers a different experience.
The manual Mini has some lack of
immediate throttle response. Pressing on
the pedal doesn’t make it go right away,
AUTO
there’s a second of hesitation. It’s almost
as if the car wants to make sure you
know what you’re doing; and it’s not
turbo lag, it’s straight acceleration. This
in no way suggests that the Mini isn’t an
absolutely brilliant car to drive. Once it
picks up and realizes you want to go fast,
it keeps you happy.
The automatic Mini takes care of that
problem with throttle response.
Acceleration is more fun and altogether
driving it isn’t necessarily better but def-
initely not worse. The automatic Mini
still lets you feel the limited slip differ-
ential kick in when taking corners at
high speeds, just like its manual brother.
You will hear a lot of debate on which
is better: Manuals give the car more
power, automatic is better to have in traf-
fic, etc. The absolute bottom line is how
you drive. Whether you think the manu-
al is harder to operate, or the automatic
is giving you worse gas mileage, the end
thing to consider is this: Driving style
and preference are the only factors that
go into deciding whether you want a
manual or an automatic; they are judge,
jury and executioner.

Honda sees near-normal
U.S.production in August
By Tom Krisher
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DETROIT — Honda’s North American factories will return
to near-normal production in August, the company said
Thursday, much faster than expected following supply disrup-
tions.
The flow of auto parts was interrupted after Japanese facto-
ries were damaged by a huge earthquake and tsunami on
March 11, or stricken by the power outages that followed.
Shortages have affected nearly every carmaker, but have
struck hardest at Honda Motor Co. and Toyota Motor Corp.
Last month, Honda cut production to about half the normal
level because of falling parts supplies. It warned dealers of
model shortages and said full production might not resume
until the end of the year.
But Honda now says that the situation in Japan is improv-
ing. Factories can ramp up to full production on a plant-by-
plant basis — except for those that build the new Civic com-
pact.
As a result, the severity of model shortages this month will
not be as bad as expected.
“This will go a long way toward alleviating the shortages at
dealerships,” said spokesman Ed Miller. “It’s very good news
for dealers.”
Toyota is also ramping up. Earlier this month it said that it
would be able to crank up North American production faster
than expected, returning to 70 percent of normal levels in
June. The company cut production to about 30 percent of nor-
mal in May by idling factories for several days or reducing
hours of operation. It had also warned dealers to expect short-
ages of some models well into the summer and said full pro-
duction may not come until late this year.
Rebecca Lindland, senior analyst for the IHS Automotive
consulting firm, cautioned that it will take a while for supplies
to be abundant again, especially for small cars and those made
only in Japan.
That also means automakers will be reluctant to offer deals,
at least for a month or two.

Marlins’ Sanchez out-duels Giants

By Antonio Gonzalez
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — Florida Marlins owner
Jeffrey Loria stood at the center of the visiting
clubhouse, holding a Marlins cap in his hand
and flashing a smile behind his sunglasses.
He was clearly the happiest person at AT&T

With the home fans still stunned and grieving
over the injury to star catcher Buster Posey,

A’s beat Angels to split four-game series

By Beth Harris
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ANAHEIM — The Oakland Athletics,
starved for runs most of the month, finally got
some, with every player notching a hit against
the Los Angeles Angels.
Brett Anderson tossed three-hit ball over
eight scoreless innings and Andy LaRoche
drove in three runs to help the last-place A’s
win 4-3 on Thursday.
The A’s split their four-game series with the
second-place Angels, who fell to 4-7 in their
past 11 games.
“It’s good to finish the series with two out of
three wins,” LaRoche said. “Hopefully, it will
give us some momentum going home and it
will carry over. We’re starting to see signs of
life from our offense. As long as our pitchers
continue to do the same job they’ve been
doing, hopefully our offense will start to liven
up a little bit.”
Anderson (3-4) struck out four and walked
A’s 4, Angels 3
three to beat the Angels for
the first time in six career
starts.
“My stuff wasn’t partic-
ularly better today than it
was on other days, I just
mixed and matched well,”
he said. “I can’t give
enough credit to my
Brett Anderson defense behind me, it was
unbelievable. The defense
was spectacular all day.”
The left-hander had been 0-3 in his previous
five starts. Anderson finally got some run sup-
port from his teammates, who had supplied
two runs or less in seven of his previous 10
starts this season.
“He’s not overpowering, but he can sneak
his fastball in there a little bit,” said Mark
Trumbo, who was 0 for 3 against Anderson.
“In the sixth, I was just a rally-killer — chop-
ping a ball to third base. I didn’t really stick
with my game plan, and that hurt us right
there.”
But Trumbo helped the Angels avoid the
shutout, hitting a three-run homer off Grant
Balfour with two outs in the ninth.
The Angels’ Torii Hunter, who had a hit and
an RBI in each of his previous six games,
failed to extend the longest such stretch of his
career, going 0 for 3 with a walk.
The Angels’ only hits off Anderson were a
single by Erick Aybar in the second inning, a
double by Maicer Izturis in the sixth and a sin-
gle by Alberto Callaspo in the seventh.
“Anderson pitched a good game and kept us
down all afternoon,” Angels manager Mike
Scioscia said. “He just was ahead in the count
all game. We had some opportunities to chip
into their lead and we just couldn’t get one or
two runs across early.”
Joel Pineiro (2-1) gave up 11 hits and four
runs in 6 1-3 innings — the same three totals
he had in his previous start against Atlanta.
The 11 hits are the most allowed by an Angels
starter this season. The right-hander struck out
three and walked none for the second straight
game while falling short in a bid to notch his
100th career victory.
“After he had given up a couple of runs, his
stuff picked up a little bit and he looked like
he got his second wind,” Scioscia said about
Pineiro. “But I just don’t know that he had the
command that he’s shown us, and he definite-
ly missed some spots in that inning where
they bunched those three runs.”
The A’s extended their lead to 4-0 with three
runs in the fourth. Josh Willingham led off
with a single before Mark Ellis singled with
two outs. LaRoche followed with a double to
left field, scoring Willingham and Ellis. He
scored on Cliff Pennington’s single.
Oakland led 1-0 in the second on LaRoche’s
groundout to third that scored former Angel
Hideki Matsui, who singled to lead off the
inning.

Raiders rookie Wisniewski, teammates pool efforts

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga. —
Rookie center Stefen Wisniewski is try-
ing to learn the Oakland Raiders’
offense without a playbook.
And if that’s not bizarre enough, the
second-round draft pick from Penn
State spent a couple of hours Thursday
working with teammates at an indoor
pool in suburban Atlanta.
Such is life during the NFL lockout.
“It’s crazy. I haven’t even been out
(to Oakland) because the lockout ended
the day I was drafted,” Wisniewski said.
“So it’s a blessing that (quarterback)
Jason (Campbell) has been here to go
over the blocking schemes and stuff
like that. Getting on the field has been
great.”
Defensive tackle Richard Seymour,
who lives in the metropolitan area,
organized the mini-camp.
Wisniewski would likely be working
at the Raiders’ team headquarters in
Alameda, Calif. — alongside his uncle,
assistant offensive line coach Steve
Wisniewski. Now Stefan Wisniewski
isn’t even allowed to talk to him.
“I haven’t tried to contact him and he
hasn’t tried to contact me,” Stefen
Wisniewski said. “It’s weird, but this is
a strange time in the NFL.”
Oakland linebacker Quentin Groves
can’t imagine what it’s like to be a
rookie under these circumstances.
No official mini-camp. No official
offseason training activities.
“It kind of takes away from the rook-
ie experience with the vets yelling at
you. ’Hey, rook. You got all that money.
Now it’s time to show up,”’ Groves
said. “Now you’re talking about these
rookies just getting thrown into the fire.
Mini-camp, OTAs — those things give
you a little bit of a chance to get adjust-
ed to the speed of the game, but if you
take that away, all you have is training
camp.
“And what if we don’t have training
camp? They’ll just get thrown out there
on the field. That’ll be tough.”
About 25 players participated in the
pool session, which was designed as a
cross-training recovery workout after
two days on the field and in the weight
room.
“It’s just getting them moving, get-
ting their heart rate up and then we fin-
ish off with the (heavy resistance rub-
ber) band work,” said Competitive
Edge Sports founder Chip Smith,
who’s hosting the camp with Seymour.
“Some of these guys can’t swim. That’s
OK. We put flotation devices on them,
but hopefully we teach them a life
skill.”
Wisniewski can swim, so that’s no
concern. Getting an understanding of
the playbook is a different matter.
That’s where Campbell comes in.
After playing last year under offensive
coordinator-turned-head coach Hue
Jackson, Campbell knows what’s
expected of Wisniewski on the field.

Miami closes out Chicago

Furious 18-3 run in the final minutes of regulation give
Miami’s Big Three a shot at their first NBA title,to face Dallas
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO — LeBron James,
Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh joined
to win a championship. Well, now they
have their shot.
James scored 28 points, Wade added
21, and they led a furious rally in the
final minutes as the Miami Heat elim-
inated Derrick Rose and the Chicago
Bulls 83-80 in Game 5 of the Eastern
Conference finals on Thursday.
James and Wade were simply spec-
tacular down the stretch, each scoring
eight during a game-ending 18-3 run
as Miami wiped out a 12-point deficit
to win the series.
Now, the Heat are headed back to the
NBA finals for the first time since
2006, and in a fitting twist, they’ll be
facing the Mavericks. Back then, with
Wade leading the way, Miami beat
Dallas to capture the championship.
This time, it’ll be James and Dirk
Nowitzki going for their first rings.
The Heat will host Game 1 on
Tuesday night.
For Miami’s Big

boasted the league’s MVP in Rose and
sent expectations soaring around
Chicago in a way not seen since
Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen
were racking up championships.
Rose led Chicago with 25 points but
hit just 9 of 29 shots. He fouled Wade
on a key four-point play and missed a
tying free throw with 26.7 seconds
left.
James had 11 rebounds and six
assists. Wade’s late surge helped
negate his nine turnovers. Bosh added
20 points and 10 rebounds as the Heat
pulled out a dramatic win.
The Bulls looked like they were in
good shape up 77-65 with about three
minutes to go, but Wade started the
deciding run with a runner and layup.
A 3 by James pulled Miami within 77-
72 with 2:07 left. Rose then scored on
a spin move in the lane, but fouled
Wade as he nailed a 3, resulting in a
four-point play.
Then, after a miss by Rose, James
tied it at 79 with another 3 with 1:01
remaining, sending a loud groan

Sharks looking to take Bruins, Lightning to

play Game 7 Friday
next step next season
By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN JOSE — From separated shoulders for
Joe Thornton and Ryane Clowe, to broken
pinkies, sprained ankles, wrenched knees and
broken noses, the injury report for the San Jose
Sharks is extensive after their quest for the
Stanley Cup ended in the Western Conference
final for the second straight year.
Those ailments are a sign that the Sharks have
learned the price it takes to make it through the
NHL playoffs. The task next year will be to use
that knowledge to make it to the Stanley Cup
final for the first time in franchise history and
win it all.
“This year more than any other year since I’ve
been here you can see the effects of a playoff
battle on our team,” said Clowe, who separated
his shoulder in Game 5 of the second round.
“That’s a good sign. Guys were laying it on the
line. Last year, the Chicago series when it was
over, I felt like we could have had a little more.
This year I felt like guys laid it out there. Guys
put their bodies on the line.”
The Sharks spent Thursday packing up their
lockers and saying their good-byes instead of
preparing for the Game 6 they had hoped to play.
San Jose was eliminated in five games on
Tuesday night on a fluky goal in double overtime
that gave Vancouver a 3-2 win.
“There’s pride and disappointment,” general
manager Doug Wilson said. “Those are the emo-
tions. Not playing tonight is going to take us a
while to get over that.”
While there’s been plenty of focus on the dis-
puted call that allowed the Canucks to tie Game
5 late in regulation, the odd bounce that led to
the game-winning goal and the seven-game
series against Detroit that appeared to wear San
Jose down, for Wilson the seeds of this loss
might have been planted in a slow start to the
regular season.
The lackluster opening left the Sharks in 12th
place in the Western Conference in mid-January
following a six-game losing streak and forced
them to push so hard in the final months of the
regular season just to make the playoffs.
“Did we drain our tank and leave ourselves
susceptible to injuries because we didn’t build
that margin for error?”
Wilson asked. “Everything
starts draining upon your
tank. Other teams got to rest
their players and we were
getting more mileage on the
odometer.”
The most notable injury
was Thornton’s separated
Doug Wilson shoulder that knocked him
out of Game 4. Thornton,
who was already dealing with a broken left
pinkie sustained late in the regular season,
returned to play more than 32 minutes in the
Game 5 loss.
He and Clowe were far from alone among the
injured. Defenseman Dan Boyle played through
an injured left knee that might require surgery
since late in the regular season; Jason Demers,
Dany Heatley and Joe Pavelski were either
slowed or sidelined by ankle injuries; Heatley
also broke his left hand late in the regular season;
and Scott Nichol needed 20 stitches on his knee
after being cut by a skate blade.
Then there are the normal bumps and bruises
that every player has after eight months of hock-
ey.
“We, like a lot of other teams, are banged up,
sore, tired, maybe more so this year than last
year after the final four,” coach Todd McLellan
said. “I think that’s a real positive sign for us. We
were involved in battles maybe a little bit more.”
This marked the second straight year the
Sharks were eliminated in the conference final
after getting swept a year ago by eventual cham-
pion Chicago.
The Sharks are the only team to make it this
far in each of the past two seasons, but that’s lit-
tle consolation for a franchise that has been near
the top of the league the past decade but is still
looking for its first trip to the final.
“It’s tough — top four teams two years in a
row,” center Logan Couture said. “It’s an accom-
plishment for our organization but it’s not where
we want to be. At the same time, there’s a lot of
organizations that would gladly switch places
with us. To be in the conference finals two
straight years is a great accomplishment. But it’s
not where we want to be. We want to win a
Stanley Cup.”

BEDFORD, Mass. — The Boston Bruins
thought they excised the specter of last sea-
son’s postseason collapse when they finished
off the Philadelphia Flyers in the Eastern
Conference semifinals this year.
Yet here they are again, one round later, try-
ing to turn back another comeback.
The Bruins will play the Tampa Bay
Lightning in Game 7 of the conference finals
on Friday night, with the winner earning a
chance to play the Vancouver Canucks for the
Stanley Cup. But Boston could have avoided a
winner-take-all predicament if it had merely
protected a three-goal lead in Game 4; scored
more than one power-play goal a week in the
playoffs; or kept Tampa Bay from scoring, as
often as not, in the first 90 seconds of the game.
“We’ve got a Game 7, it’s at home, and we’re
one game away from the Stanley Cup finals.
Why shouldn’t we be excited?” coach Claude
Julien said Thursday after stepping off the
team charter at Hanscom Field outside of
Boston. “Our guys are not discouraged or dis-
appointed. The past is the past. We’ve got an
opportunity to win a hockey game and get into
the Stanley Cup finals.”
Lightning coach Guy Boucher said he will
start goalie Dwayne Roloson, who is 7-0 in his
career in elimination games, instead of Mike
Smith, who twice came on in relief during the
series and started Game 5. Boucher also said
Thursday he didn’t expect Sean Bergenheim to
be able to play in Game 7.
The Tampa Bay forward had been leading
the league with nine goals during the playoffs
— after scoring 14 during the regular season
— but he missed the last two periods of Game
5 with an undisclosed injury.
“He’s seeing our doctors again today,”
Boucher said. “And he’s going to have another
evaluation tonight and tomorrow morning. And
we’ll see. But right now it doesn’t necessarily
look like something positive for us.”
The Bruins spent most of this season trying
to forget what happened in last year’s playoffs,
when the Flyers rallied from a 3-0 deficit to
force a seventh game and then trailed 3-0 in
Game 7 before winning to advance to the con-
ference finals. Boston swept Philadelphia this
year in Round 2, but that doesn’t mean Bruins
“We’ve got a Game 7,
it’s at home,and we’re one
game away from the
Stanley Cup finals.Why
shouldn’t we be excited?”
— Claude Julien,Boston coach
fans are ready to get comfortable when the
team gets a big lead.
In Game 4, with Boston already leading the
series 2-1, the Bruins opened up a 3-0 lead
before allowing five unanswered goals. The
Bruins also led 3-2 in the series, with a 2-1 lead
after one period of Game 6 on Wednesday
night, before the Lightning scored three in a
row and eventually won 5-4.
That sent the teams back to Boston for Game
7.
“When it all comes down to one game, I
think the pressure is on both teams,” Bruins
forward Patrice Bergeron said. “You shouldn’t
allow pressure to get into your head. Just go
out there and play your game.”
Although the Bruins can call upon their
experience in Game 7 against Montreal in the
first round, Tampa Bay is much more familiar
with elimination games. The Lightning fell
behind the Pittsburgh Penguins 3-1 in the first
round before winning three straight to
advance; Wednesday’s victory over Boston
made them 4-0 this season in elimination
games.
“Everybody’s a little bit nervous but it’s a
good nervous,” forward Vincent Lecavalier
said Thursday after arriving in Boston. “I’m
definitely happy that we have been through one
of those before. And I know this is for the
Stanley Cup final, but when you’re in the first
round against Pittsburgh and a lot of guys this
is their first playoffs, to win that first round is a
big deal.
“So it’s nice that we played that Game 7.
Played it so well and we’re composed. ... And
we won. So we’re going to take a lot from that
first series.”
Although the teams finished the regular sea-
son with identical 46-25-11 records, good for
103 points, the Bruins have the home-ice
advantage for Game 7 because they won the
Northeast Division while the Lightning fin-
ished behind Washington in the Southeast.

Clijsters stunned at French POSEY
By Howard Fendrich
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PARIS — There were plenty of excuses avail-
able for Kim Clijsters after a stunning collapse
in the second round of the French Open against
a woman ranked 114th.
In assessing her 3-6, 7-5, 6-1 loss to Arantxa
Rus of the Netherlands on Thursday, the sec-
ond-seeded Clijsters could have pointed to her
heavily taped right ankle, which she hurt while
dancing barefoot at her cousin’s wedding last
month.
In recounting how she managed to waste two
match points and drop 11 of the last 12 games
after leading 5-2 in the second set, the Belgian
could have mentioned that she last entered the
French Open in 2006, and had played a total of
five clay-court matches anywhere since.
And in explaining her 65 unforced errors —
43 more than her opponent made — and 10 dou-
ble-faults, Clijsters could have reminded every-
one that she hadn’t competed at all since late
March because of that bum ankle and previous
injuries to her right shoulder and wrist.
Instead, the winner of the last two Grand Slam
titles, and four overall, pointed a finger squarely
at herself and an odd crisis of confidence.
“I started doubting a little bit,” said Clijsters,
the French Open runner-up in 2001 and 2003.
“When you start doubting yourself on any sur-
face — but for me, definitely on clay — it’s the
wrong attitude to have.”
The 27-year-old Clijsters also gave credit to
the 20-year-old Rus, who entered the day with a
3-4 career record in major tournaments and only
twice before had been to Court Philippe Chatrier
— and those visits were as a spectator.
After delivering one of the most surprising
tennis results in recent years, Rus acknowledged
she was nervous at the outset, perhaps because
Clijsters is one of her favorite players, someone
she used to cheer for when watching on TV.
“She obviously started building up more con-
fidence, started playing a lot better, and was
really kind of putting me on my back foot all the

ranked Pablo Andujar of Spain 7-5, 6-3, 7-6 (4). “We should have won last year,” said
Capuchino coach Todd Grammatico. In the 2-1
loss to Valley Christian in 2010, he explained,
the Warriors were down to their last out when
they won the game.
“By what happened last year, we’re much bet-
ter prepared for this year. … They know what to
expect. Saturday is a much bigger game than a
weekday game.”
Grammatico said just not being as nervous is a
huge benefit in the championship game because
it allows players to just go out and do what
they’ve done all season long: play softball.
“I think it (experience) is a big part (of suc-
cess). I don’t think our kids are nervous. I think
they are excited,” said Menlo manager Craig
Schoof. “One of our advantages last year was,
we were so young. I don’t think they knew to be
nervous.”
Experience is not the only criterion for suc-
cess. The Daily Journal highlighted the opposite
ways two teams qualified for the playoffs:
Capuchino baseball relied mostly on its slugging
ability, while Half Moon Bay baseball leaned on
its pitching staff.
Ultimately, a championship needs both at
some point during the playoffs. Menlo pitched
and slugged its way through the first two rounds,
and when the pitching was shaky in the semifi-
nals, the offense — along with a slew of Carmel
mistakes — came through with a six-run sixth
to tie the game at 8, a game the Knights won in
nine innings.
Schoof said the offense’s ability to generate
hits and runs in bunches is a benefit to the pitch-
ing staff, especially.
“They don’t have to be perfect,” Schoof said of
his pitchers. “What I was most proud of this
team was not the win, but that they didn’t roll
over.”
THE DAILY JOURNAL
Francisco, lives in the Bay Area and had
almost a dozen friends and family in atten-
dance, apologized repeatedly for injuring
Posey. But he believes — as most Giants reit-
erated — that he made a clean baseball play.
Cousins was even more remorseful when he
heard the severity of the injury before the
series finale, saying he had to look away from
the replay that was shown repeatedly at the
team’s hotel. He said he tried calling Posey
twice overnight, left messages with Giants
trainers and sent his condolences to the other
clubhouse.
“The last thing I wanted to do was break a
guy’s leg,” he said, tears welling up in his
eyes.
The moment was as stunning as any San
Francisco has seen this season.
Posey lay in the dirt around home plate,
dazed, writhing in pain and curling up in a
ball. After several minutes of stunned silence,
fans began chanting “Posey! Posey!” as he
was helped off the field by two team trainers
holding up his left leg.
Posey had already taken several hard foul
tips off his mask and legs this season, even
leaving one game as a precaution to make sure
he didn’t have a concussion. Some observers
have argued a slugger of his caliber shouldn’t
be behind the plate, where hits can be routine,
and this injury surely won’t do much to quiet
that sentiment.
Posey himself has always shaken off those
remarks, saying he was born to play catcher
and loves the position. Bochy also shook off
questions that Posey should switch to first
base — where he played some last year — in
the future, saying it’s too early to be talking
about such plans.
“Right now,” Bochy said, “we’re just trying
to get over the shock of this a little.”
Capuchino pitcher Michele Pilster rolled
though the Mustangs first opponent, but the
offense picked her up in the semifinals as they
rallied from a 3-1 deficit and Pilster held Notre
Dame-Salinas in check the rest of the way.
Both Menlo and Capuchino showed some
serious intestinal fortitude in the semifinals.
While Menlo’s unbelievable rally Tuesday was
one of the biggest stories of the tournament thus
far, Capuchino, while not as dramatic, was
equally effective. Notre Dame-Salinas turned a
1-0 deficit into a 3-1 lead in the top of the third.
Instead of being knocked back on their heels,
the Mustangs, instead, dug their heels in and
went to hitting. They came back with a four-spot
in the bottom of the frame to wobble the Spirit
and take a 4-3 lead. They tacked on three more
runs in the late innings to finish off an 11-time
champion.
“The resiliency they showed last night, they’ve
never shown before,” Grammatico said. “The
kids almost feel, I don’t want to say invincible,
but I’ll say it — invincible. Whatever happens
this year, they’re going to take care of it.”
Menlo’s opponent, Santa Cruz, may seem a
surprise considering its No. 8 seed, but the

By Susan Cohn
DAILY JOURNAL SENIOR CORRESPONDENT
THE STEINS COLLECT. American
expatriates in bohemian Paris when the 20th
century was young, the writer Gertrude
Stein, her brothers Leo and Michael and
Michael’s wife, Sarah, recognized early the
talents of painters like Henri Matisse and
Pablo Picasso. Both Stein households —
Leo and Gertrude at 27 rue de Fleurus, and
Sarah and Michael a couple of blocks away
at 58 rue Madame — opened their apart-
ments every Saturday evening to all who
wished to see and discuss the wild new art
they were collecting. As gathering places for
artists, collectors, dealers, curators, friends
and even curiosity seekers, these salons
became pivotal in the unfolding of modern
art. This unconventional family became cen-
tral figures in the newly formed avant-garde
scene and through their friendship and
patronage helped spark an artistic revolution.
Sarah and Michael Stein’s return to San
Francisco with a cache of important Matisse
works in 1935, the same year the San
Francisco Museum of Modern Art was
founded, was instrumental in the advocacy of
modern art on the West Coast and the making
of the museum’s early collection.
The Steins Collect: Matisse, Picasso and
the Parisian Avant-Garde, the landmark exhi-
bition at the San Francisco Museum of
Modern Art, draws on collections around the
world to reunite the Steins’ unparalleled
holdings of modern art, bringing together for
the first time in a generation now famous
works by Matisse, Picasso, Paul Cézanne,
Pierre-Auguste Renoir and Henri de
Toulouse-Lautrec. Among some 40 works by
Picasso and approximately 60 by Matisse are
Matisse’s Blue Nude (Baltimore Museum of
Art), Woman with a Hat (SFMOMA), Self-
Portrait (Statens Museum, Copenhagen) and

Gertrude Stein: Five Stories, the first major
museum exhibition to fully investigate the
fascinating visual legacy and life of this
Jewish-American expatriate, American
celebrity, art collector and muse to artists of
several generations. Stein is perhaps most
famous as a modern writer and the creator of
such oft-repeated phrases as “A rose is a rose
THE DAILY JOURNAL
is a rose is a rose” and “There’s no there
there.” But Stein’s reach extended well
beyond literature to include collaborations in
opera and ballet, and to the exertion of
tremendous influence as a cultural networker,
bringing creative people such as Picasso,
Matisse and Hemingway together at leg-
endary salons held in her homes.
Connie Wolf, Director of the
Contemporary Jewish Museum, said, “This
exhibition offers a fascinating, new look at
one of the most influential Jewish women of
the 20th century whose reach across the arts
continues today. We are delighted to present
this exhibition that draws on exciting new
research and scholarship by our guest cura-
tors, who have uncovered and examined the
many sides of Stein.”
Seeing Gertrude Stein: Five Stories fea-
tures more than 100 artifacts and art works
by artists from across Europe and the United
States. It includes paintings, sculpture, pho-
tography, drawings, and artist’s gifts to Stein,
as well as items from her custom-designed
wardrobe, manuscripts, books, periodicals,
letters, journals and personal belongings. The
exhibition also features Alice B. Toklas,
Stein’s life-long partner and explores the aes-
thetics of dress, home décor, entertainment
and food that the two women created togeth-

Patricia Wells: A salad with it all...but fruit 2 tablespoons sesame

P
atricia Wells wants her salads to have
it all — fresh seasonal ingredients,
bright colors, crunch and a bit of lean
protein.
Well, almost all. “I generally do not like
fruit in my salads, though I do enjoy can-
taloupe or watermelon from time to time,”
Wells, author of numerous cookbooks,
including the just-released “Salad as a Meal”
(William Morrow, 2011), said in an e-mail
interview.
And for Wells, salads don’t just make the
meal, they can make it memorable.
“Any lobster or crab salad is delightfully
memorable. I remember the first time I sam-
pled the combination of crab and avocado at
L’Astrance restaurant in Paris. I thought I had
died and gone to heaven,” she said. “To this
day, it remains one of the greatest salad com-
binations I know.”
For AP’s 20 Salads of Summer series,
Wells offered a recipe for ginger-sesame
chicken salad with glass noodles.
“Ginger, sesame and glass noodles are a
classic Asian combination, and the addition
of chicken puts it in the healthy, lean protein
category for me,” she said. “The bright,
intense flavor of a good quality sesame oil
makes this an elegant dish that takes very lit-
tle effort, and the crunch of the scallions add
that essential crunch.”

A few cracks in hard-boiled ‘L.A.Noire’
By Lou Kesten
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The hard-boiled crime story has
become so ingrained in our culture
that most Americans know all the
cliches even if they’ve never read a
Raymond Chandler novel or seen a
Humphrey Bogart film: the world-
weary gumshoe and the calculating
femme fatale, the corkscrew plots
and existential gloom, the jazzy
soundtracks and bent camera angles.
From “The Maltese Falcon” to “Pulp
Fiction,” film noir continues to fasci-
nate.
Even video-game creators have
been drawn to these dark streets, dat-
ing back to ‘80s classics like “Deja
Vu” and “Police Quest.” “L.A.
Noire” (Rockstar Games, for the
Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, $59.99) is
the most ambitious attempt yet to
create interactive film noir.
Developed by the Australian stu-
dio Team Bondi, “L.A. Noire” is a
lavish tribute to the detective melo-
dramas of the 1940s and ‘50s. Its
epic tale of corruption and redemp-
tion draws from dozens of films
while being moving in its own right.
As a game, however, it’s not entire-
WEEKEND JOURNAL
ly rewarding.
The protagonist is Cole Phelps, a
World War II hero who signs on with
the Los Angeles Police Department
in 1947. Phelps moves up the ranks
quickly, from beat cop to homicide
detective, and ends up investigating a
series of murders that bear all the
signs of the notorious Black Dahlia
killing. He eventually stumbles
across a conspiracy involving
Hollywood, city hall and California’s
most powerful business tycoons.
The main story line has 21 cases,
and the action consists largely of two
activities. First, you examine crime
scenes for evidence. This involves
walking around the scene until your
controller vibrates, then peering at
whatever piqued your senses. It’s a
tedious process.
Second, you interrogate witnesses
and suspects based on the evidence
collected. This is somewhat more
intriguing, since you have to watch
other characters’ body language and
guess whether they’re telling the
truth, lying or doing something in
between. Guessing wrong won’t
necessarily prevent you from solving
a case; the worst penalty is a chew-
ing-out from the boss.
There are some fairly pedestrian
shootouts and car chases, but it’s the
interrogations that display the new
technology Rockstar has developed
for “L.A. Noire.” The developers
filmed actors with 32 cameras, trans-
lating every tic and twitch to their
virtual doppelgangers, resulting in
some of the most lifelike faces ever
to appear in video games.
Most of the dramatic burden is on
Aaron Staton — Ken Cosgrove on
AMC’s “Mad Men” — who creates
a believable character in the seem-
ingly virtuous, secretly tormented
Phelps. Other “Mad Men” actors,
including Vincent Kartheiser, Rich
Sommer and Patrick Fischler, pop up
THE DAILY JOURNAL
in supporting roles. But it’s John
Noble from Fox’s “Fringe” who
chews the most scenery as a rapa-
cious real estate developer.
Film noir fans will have a blast
playing spot-the-influence, with
scenes drawn from genre classics
like “Out of the Past,” “Double
Indemnity,” “The Set-Up” and “The
Third Man.” Two more recent films,
however, seem like the scriptwriter’s
main inspirations: 1974’s
“Chinatown” and 1997’s “L.A.
Confidential.”
The story in “L.A. Noire” is far
more sophisticated than what video
games typically offer. But much of
the drama is presented in non-inter-
active cut scenes, suggesting that
Rockstar is still wrestling with the
balance between storytelling and
gameplay. “L.A. Noire” doesn’t
deliver everything it promises, but it
does point in the right direction.
Three stars out of four.

Speedy meal that doesn’t rely on takeout
By Jim Romanoff
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Beautiful spring weather and
longer days often mean a good,
home-cooked supper falls by the
wayside. Who wants to be standing
around in the kitchen, right?
But don’t give in to the tempta-
tion of greasy takeout or frozen din-
ners. There are plenty of shortcuts
that can help you get a healthy meal
on the table in a surprisingly short
amount of time.
This rice and noodle pilaf with
edamame and grilled shrimp, for
example, is a one-pot meal that can
be on the table in around 35 minutes
— less time than it usually takes to
get a pizza delivered.
The secret to the ease of this tasty
meal starts at the market. The starch
portion of the dish consists of
quick-cooking fine egg noodles
combined with instant brown rice,
which has all the nutrition of its
conventional cousin, but cooks in
about a quarter of the time.
To build layers of great flavor, the
rice and noodles are browned with
sauteed red onion and smoky
Canadian bacon, then simmered in
dry white wine and chicken broth.
Vegetables come in the form of pro-
tein-rich edamame. But if you pre-
fer, you could use frozen baby lima
beans or even black-eyed peas.
While the pilaf is simmering,
throw some lemony, flash-marinat-

imagine it. “It would be opposite styles. ... I
think I have a longer reach.”
“I feel like you probably know 12 ways to
kill me,” Black replies. “I don’t really know
any ways, but I outweigh you, and they say
that is an advantage. My advantage would just
be crushing you. But you’re very lithe and lim-
ber. I don’t know. That would be a battle.”
In “Kung Fu Panda 2,” their characters do
wind up trading a few blows, though they’re
allies against a villain (voiced by Gary
Oldman) using gunpowder and cannons to end
the sway of kung fu and conquer ancient
China.
Black’s tubby panda Po now is accepted as
the “Dragon Warrior,” the leader of a kung fu
team that includes Jolie’s Tigress and returning
characters voiced by Dustin
Hoffman, Lucy Liu, Seth
Rogen, Jackie Chan and
David Cross.
Yet Po remains shaky as a
commander, troubled by
repressed memories of his early
childhood and pressing his
father, a goose,

character beyond the usual animated kids’
movie hero, but it also results in a crammed
narrative that’ll make you wish they’d stuck
with one story or the other.
In every way, it feels like there’s too much
going on — and that includes having too
many characters. This is especially true when
it comes to Po’s posse, The Furious Five.
if not better (are you listening, makers of the
“Hangover” movies?). “T2” was super high-
tech in its day, with seamless visual effects
that allowed Robert Patrick’s character, the
even deadlier Terminator known as the T-
1000, to shape-shift and heal itself instantly.
Schwarzenegger is back as the original
Terminator, who must now protect Sarah
Connor’s son. Of course, “T2” features yet
another of his classic lines — “Hasta la vista,
baby” — which he would use to cringe-
inducing effect in various real-world circum-
stances.

“They’re like the father and mother,” Jolie
says. “They’re like an odd married couple.”
“It’s very much about our relationships
with our parents,” Black says. “That’s, of
course, always a central part of every
kid’s joy and
angst at the
same time
growing up.
So it’s a cool,
primal thing
that we

of the Po journey.”
Black and Jolie
see clear similarities
between themselves
and their cartoon char-
acters. For Black, Tigress
and Jolie both show strength
and intelligence on the surface,
with a simmering danger underneath.
“There’s an unresolved longing inside of
Tigress. I’m not sure what it is. She’s holding
a secret, you definitely feel that,” Black says.
“I feel that from Angelina, that she’s got a
secret and a wonderful, mysterious danger that
is very attractive. Definitely part of the charis-
ma, the secret ingredient.
“I think it’s the perfect animated character
for Angelina. Tigress! Cool, got a nice sense of
Except for Angelina Jolie as the fierce Tigress,
the animals who comprise Po’s team —
Monkey (Jackie Chan), Mantis (Seth Rogen),
Viper (Lucy Liu) and Crane (David Cross) —
do plenty of fighting but only get a couple of
lines here and there, and they’re not fleshed
out terribly well.
Dustin Hoffman returns in a reduced role as
Po’s diminutive mentor, Master Shifu (and
there’s not nearly enough of him), with Jean-
directed by Paul Verhoeven, this is a brisk,
paranoid, violent and darkly funny adventure.
Schwarzenegger stars as Doug Quaid, a con-
struction worker living in the future who dis-
covers that his entire existence has been a
fabrication. His real identity (which has
something to do with Mars) has been erased,
but virtual reality trips help him unlock his
own mysteries. This vision of an efficient
future is meant to be startling in its soulless-
ness, but “Total Recall” also features plenty
of sleaze; this is, after all, from the man who
would go on to direct “Basic Instinct.”

you’re going into battle.”
Jolie says that Po shares Black’s unabashed
lust for life.
“As Jack says, when he does some-
thing, he does it all the way,” Jolie
says. “Po has that beautiful sense
of adventure and wonder and
openness to just say, ’However
you’re going to judge
me ... I’m
going to
live my
life the
way I
want to
live it. As
fully as I
can live it.

good person, and so be it.’”
Black had not yet taken his
two young sons to see “Kung
Fu Panda 2,” but Jolie arranged a
screening at DreamWorks
Animation for her and romantic
partner Brad Pitt’s six children.
Jolie figured their kids — three
adopted, three biological — might
have questions about the “Kung Fu
Panda” franchise’s family themes, which
include a revelation in the animated DVD
short “Secrets of the Furious Five” that Tigress
grew up in an orphanage.
In the drive home after seeing “Kung Fu
Panda 2,” though, Jolie’s children were far
more interested in knowing how Tigress came
to be captured and chained up in one scene.

The way to true inner peace comes from

rated PG for sequences of martial arts action
and mild violence. Running time: 90 minutes.

bad Arnold accent.) An early film from action
veteran John McTiernan, this sci-fi thriller is
about a group of commandos who are trapped
in a Central American jungle and hunted by an
extraterrestrial monster. Schwarzenegger, as a
special forces bad-ass named Dutch, is sent in
to save them but he also must fight this crea-
ture with deadly camouflage abilities. If any-
one could do it, it was Arnold at the height of
his powers.

BBQ — all about the sauce and skill at the grill
By Michelle Locke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Tangy or mellow, spicy or mild, barbecue
sauce is the icing on the steak — or ribs, or
whatever else it is you happen to throw on the
grill.
And just as in real estate, location is a big
deal, with new attention being paid to the var-
ious regional recipes for grilling success.
“It’s all about authenticity right now.
Everybody wants to stay true to the different
regions,” says Chris Lilly, vice president of
the renowned Big Bob Gibson Bar-B-Q
restaurants in Alabama and head of their com-
petition team.
And the differences aren’t always subtle.
This is, after all, barbecue. In Northern
Alabama, for example, there’s a white barbe-
cue sauce based on mayonnaise with black
pepper and a little lemon juice. While Kansas
City is home of a tangy, tomato and molasses-
influenced sauces, the inspiration for the
brand KC Masterpiece.
Overall, barbecue sauce sales in the U.S.
reached $660 million in 2010, gaining 21 per-
cent from 2005, according to a recent report
from market research company Mintel.
And that growth likely will continue. With
beef and pork prices on the increase, food
trend observer Phil Lempert, the
“Supermarket Guru,” expects sales of barbe-
cue sauce to increase as people look for ways
to improve the taste of cheaper cuts of meat.
But slow down before you slather it on.
Lempert notes that most people don’t use bar-
becue sauces properly. They should be
brushed onto the meat during the final min-
utes of cooking — not at the start — other-
wise they’ll probably burn.
And if you’re aiming to make meat more
tender, look for sauces that are high in acid,
not sugar. “I always make my own using
grapefruit, orange or tomato juices and add a
few spices,” says Lempert.

that overlooks the highway and for its past,
including a long-running dispute with a for-
mer caretaker that ended up in court.
The old rest stop was not compliant with the
Americans with Disabilities Act so Caltrans
added a third rest room specifically designed
for people with disabilities or elderly people
who are traveling with caregivers of the oppo-
site gender.
Other new features include a wheelchair-
accessible ramp, landscaping, vending
machines and security cameras. The space, at
the western edge of Hillsborough, has pay
phones, picnic tables and an area for pets and
a hiking trail.
Hillsborough Councilwoman Christine
Krolik praised Caltrans yesterday for bringing
the project in under budget and for the rest
area’s sustainable touches, including water-
conserving toilets and drought-resistant land-
scaping.
Caltrans spent $2.7 million sprucing up the
area.
“It is virtually a brand-new facility,”
Caltrans spokesman Dan McElhinney said at
yesterday afternoon’s grand reopening.
The rest area expects to serve more than
200,000 vehicles a year, he said.
It will be an area for big-rig drivers to per-
form safety inspections and to get much need-
ed rest after long hours of driving,
McElhinney said.
Caltrans has 87 rest areas in the state, with
three in the Bay Area.
“This is just drop-dead beautiful,” County
Supervisor Carole Groom said yesterday.
“You’ve given us a great gift and I assure you
we will take care of it.”
Nearly eight years ago, the rest area became

THE DAILY JOURNAL
the center of controversy as its former care-
taker Jerry Morissette refused to leave the
state-owned trailer he occupied on the land
after Morissette allegedly acted belligerently
toward 911 dispatchers.
Morissette moved onto the property, located
along northbound Interstate 280 in
Hillsborough in 1991. In 12 years, he turned a
plot of land favored by drug users and men
looking for casual sex into a mini-oasis replete
with gardens and various fruit trees. Giving
him a trailer to live in, Caltrans eventually
allowed Morissette to stay in exchange for
deterring the unsavory activities.
Caltrans, however, ultimately ended the
California Rest Stop Caretaker Program and
evicted Morissette from the land.
Now, CHP security cameras will monitor
the area for suspicious activity.
Construction on the rest area facilities began
in September 2009.

County has first dibs on prosecution because
its warrant is the one that caught Kioskli,
Wagstaffe said.
His alleged crime is unique, Wagstaffe said.
The District Attorney’s Office has prosecut-

at ATMS but a cash switch inside a bank
machine is a first, he said.
Kioskli remains in custody in lieu of

There is a good chance that some exciting develop-
ments spurred by welcome changes will be in the
offing for you in the next year. Once the chain of
events begins, a ripple effect of good fortune will
cascade through your life.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- This is not going to be
a good day for you if you decide to take a gamble on
something you know to be risky. Don’t blindly follow
a pal into dangerous waters. You’ll both founder.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Go ahead and be
self-serving, but know there will be a price to pay. In
striving to fulfill a personal ambition, you might win a
skirmish, but you aren’t going to win the war.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Watch your back, because
someone who is feeding you information might be de-

There is a good chance that some exciting develop-
ments spurred by welcome changes will be in the
offing for you in the next year. Once the chain of
events begins, a ripple effect of good fortune will
cascade through your life.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- This is not going to be
a good day for you if you decide to take a gamble on
something you know to be risky. Don’t blindly follow
a pal into dangerous waters. You’ll both founder.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Go ahead and be
self-serving, but know there will be a price to pay. In
striving to fulfill a personal ambition, you might win a
skirmish, but you aren’t going to win the war.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Watch your back, because
someone who is feeding you information might be de-
liberately giving you false data in order to throw you
off-course. Beware of schemers with forked tongues.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- There is a good chance
you could be manipulated into an argument after
which, if something goes wrong or it is mishandled,
you’ll be the one who is blamed. Don’t be left holding
the bag.
