million in damages on behalf of a 17-year-old
San Mateo girl left in a vegetative state after a
driver hit her in a crosswalk on El Camino
Real in 2006.
After a four-week trial, the jury found the
driver 30 percent responsible but gave 50 per-
cent of the fault to Caltrans which controls the
roads. The remaining 20 percent fault was
apportioned to the victim, Emily Liou.
On the evening of March 28, 2006, Liou
was walking home from karaoke when a
woman driving a slow-moving Toyota sedan
knocked her to the ground, according to her
lawyer, Douglas S. Saeltzer who filed suit
along with his law partner, Rich Schoenberger
of Walkup, Melodia, Kelly & Schoenberger.
Liou received a traumatic brain injury that left
her in a permanent vegetative state. The cross-
walk is marked but located in a crest of the road
which is out of view until a driver is approxi-
mately 100 feet away and has no lights or stops
signs controlling traffic, according to Saeltzer.
In the 15 years prior to Liou’s accident, three
other pedestrians have been killed in the same
crosswalk, according to the law firm’s research.
Caltrans representatives did not return an
inquiry for comment.

Tiki carver finds natural locale for his work
By William Jeske
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Tualau Tauheluhelu would be hard-pressed
to tell you when, in his more than 40 years of
wood sculpting, that a mallet and chisel felt
like foreign objects to his well-toned, chapped
and calloused hands. The extensive wood carv-
ing collection of this soft-spoken 56-year-old
from the South Pacific island of Tonga tells of
a lifetime focusing on perfecting his craft.
“I’ll carve anything, you name it,” chuckles
Tauheluhelu between tapping his mallet and
ferule on his current project. He’s making a
series of Tiki idols to adorn the walls and ban-
isters for a soon-to-open bar and grill on B
Street in downtown San Mateo.
Examples of his work, which he makes from
his workshop and sells at street corners or art
fairs, include traditional big-headed, small-
bodied Tiki idols, as well as ornamental shark-
toothed clubs and animals.
Tauheluhelu markets himself as a custom
Tiki carver. For a negotiated price, he’ll carve
a Tiki version of his customers.
“I’ll give you a man’s or lady’s body,” he
said, “but I’ll give you a big face.”
“This one time, I even carved a man wearing
a tuxedo,” Tauheluhelu recalled with a wry
smile.
Tauheluhelu taught himself to carve when he
was a bored schoolboy in Tonga. He’d carve
small dolls between classes and his skill with
tools ultimately led to a number of carpentry
jobs.
“I began selling the dolls in 1977 but my
trade was as a builder,” he said.
He left Tonga for the United States when he
was 18 years old and worked a series of odd
jobs and carpentry projects to get by.
Ultimately, he settled in San Mateo, and
soon decided to make carving his full-time
profession, with the occasional carpentry proj-
ect. That was nearly 30 years ago.
In taking his carving from hobby to profes-
sion, he’s learned that carving begins well
before he reaches for his tools. When he stud-

ies an untouched piece of wood, it’s its dimen-
sions that dictate what carving it should reveal.
“I’ll look at a log and think, ‘this is a whale,’
or ‘this is a dolphin,’” he said. “All my carv-
ings look like what the wood looks like.”
He does insist, though, on using hardwoods.
“I prefer exotic woods, like rosewood,” he
said.
Rosewood typically is a strong, heavy brown
wood that takes well to stains and polishes.
Tauheluhelu also tries to avoid using power
tools on his carvings, he said, instead relying
on his collection of mallets, chisels, ferules
and gouges. Though he has, on occasion, used
a chain saw to cut large pieces, and sometimes
a power sander.
A myriad of Tauheluhelu’s carvings, mostly
Tikis, stare or greet passersby from the win-
dow at what will be the Downtown Tiki
Lounge Bar & Grill at 144 B St.
Dennis Romero, a lifelong resident of San
Mateo, decided to open a Tiki-themed bar with
his friend soon after Romero’s courier job with
DHL Express disappeared. The company
DIANA CLOCK/DAILY JOURNAL
ceased operations in the United States in
November 2008 because of the economic
downturn. Romero hopes to open the lounge
by the end of this month pending the approval
of a liquor license.
“I’d always wanted to open a bar,” Romero
said, “and one day my friend says we should
open a Tiki bar.”
The two pooled their resources and began
refurbishing the B Street location to resemble
a traditional tropical lounge, with bamboo
shoots, palm tree canopies and a red-lit bar
counter that resembles a lava flow.
And, of course, plenty of Tauheluhelu’s
Tikis.
“I’d seen this guy selling his Tikis on
Shoreview (Avenue),” Romero said, “and it
just made sense to hire him.”

Report claiming oversight
committees need training
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
Citizens charged with overseeing voter-
approved bond funds for local school districts
have little power to ensure money is spent prop-
erly and often are not well-informed about the
financial documents which they are given,
according to a San Mateo County Civil Grand
Jury report released yesterday.
Proposition 39, passed in 2000, allows school
districts the ability to pass bond measures at 55
percent while requiring a citizens’ oversight
committee is created to audit purchases.
Citizens in the committee are specified to rep-
resent certain people within the community, to
guarantee various points of view. Over the past
five years, two school districts have had serious
financial problems regarding bond measures.
As a result, the civil grand jury researched if the
citizens’ oversight committee is really able to

Nine school districts within the county have

committees, according to the six-page report.
Some members interviewed shared that their
function was irrelevant since purchases and
decisions were already made. Others noted hav-
ing little real understanding of projects and
financial projects which they were looking over.

WASHINGTON — Facing criticism from
House Democrats, President Barack Obama
promised their leaders Wednesday night that
he’ll actively support their agenda and
Democratic lawmakers as they head into tough
midterm elections this fall, according to a con-
gressional leadership aide.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Majority
Leader Steny Hoyer were among those in the
Oval Office meeting. The aide, who was briefed
on the meeting, spoke on condition of anonymi-
ty because the conversation was private.
The meeting came as congressional
Democrats, fearing disaster in the fall elections,
have expressed frustration with the Obama
team and its efforts to help Democrats. They
also were angered when White House press
secretary Robert Gibbs said over the weekend
that enough seats were in play for Democrats to
lose the House.
Obama was told of the concerns of rank-and-
file lawmakers, some of whom think the presi-
dent hasn’t been doing enough to use his bully
pulpit on their behalf, considering that they are
all up for re-election in November, the aide
said. Obama won’t face voters again until 2012.
Obama said that he understood the criticism
and promised full engagement and support on
substance and message through the fall, the
aide said. With high unemployment dragging
down incumbents, a key focus will be on jobs
and how individual congressional districts are
helped by Democrats’ policies.
Pelosi told reporters it had been a “very pro-
ductive meeting” and said that Gibbs’ comment
about Democrats possibly losing the House
never came up.

Experimental diet pill Some preventive care is free
has promise,little risk
By Mike Stobbe
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ATLANTA — An experimental
diet pill helped about half the people
who tried it lose some weight and
keep it off a year later, without the
heart problems that some earlier
drugs caused, a study found.
Arena Pharmaceuticals’ lorcaserin
is one of three drugs that are boost-
ing hope for a new generation of
more effective weight-loss medi-
cines. One gets a Food and Drug
Administration review on Thursday
and the others, later this year.
In the study, lorcaserin (lore-
KASS-ah-rin) caused more people
to lose at least 5 percent of their
body weight over one year, more
than twice the rate achieved by
those on dummy pills.
Most people don’t stick to diets.
And diet pills have had bad side
effects or can’t be taken long-term.
A low point came in 1997 when the
popular “fen-phen” was pulled from
the market after it was tied to heart
valve problems.
But now comes lorcaserin, a
round blue tablet that would be the
first truly novel weight-loss pill in a
dozen years if it wins approval. The
drug targets the same appetite path-
way fen-phen did but in a more
selective, and perhaps safer, manner.
Results of a large company-fund-
ed study of it are in Thursday’s New
England Journal of Medicine.
The study involved more that
3,100 obese or overweight people
given either the drug or dummy
pills.
FDA: Diabetes

WASHINGTON — mates that 41 million Americans will
GlaxoSmithKline’s drug Avandia
should stay on the market, federal
health experts voted Wednesday,
but the controversial diabetes pill
should be subject to new restric-

effects.
A panel of Food and Drug
Administration advisers voted 20-
12 to keep the once blockbuster
pill available for diabetics. But 10
panelists also called for limiting
who can receive and prescribe the
much-debated medication.
The vote marks a tough win for
British drugmaker Glaxo, which is
facing thousands of lawsuits from
patients who say Avandia caused
their heart attacks or strokes.
While the company may fare bet-
ter in court due to the panel ruling,
sales of Avandia are likely to
shrink to minuscule levels.
The FDA is not required to fol-
low the advice of its panelists,
though it usually does. FDA offi-
cials said they would review the
recommendations and make a
decision on Avandia as soon as
possible.

A different path for city services the MidPeninsula.

By Jim Hartnett
It is time for all cities to move
toward a different way of provid-
ing public safety services. For the
southern part of San Mateo
County, closing down police
departments and contracting with
the San Mateo County Sheriff’s
Office for police services could be
a natural fit. Closing fire stations
that are close to their neighbors
who could provide good service
on a contract basis would provide
substantial cost savings as well.
To start with, Redwood City
should consider contracting for
police services with the San
Mateo County Sheriff’s Office
and working with the Woodside
Fire Protection District to close
one fire station and share another.
Fiscal crisis or not, cities have
to look at different ways of pro-
viding services. There is nothing
like a financial disaster that is
unprecedented in the lives of most
Americans to motivate a careful
look at how government spends
and receives money. Virtually
every city revenue source is down,
and may not come back up for
years or ever, while contracted for
expenses continue to rise. Even if
cities are able to further control
costs, primarily employee wages
and benefits, and contributions to
pensions, there still will likely be
structural imbalances. Change is
needed.
Since public safety generally
takes up more than 50 percent of
a city general fund budget and
sometimes more than 60 percent,
shouldn’t we be looking toward
more efficient, cost-effective ways
of providing those services?
Police and fire personnel should
always be paid
well and have
good pensions,
but in a rela-
tively small
county that has
20 towns and
cities, there
should not be
any question as
to whether efficiencies can be
found.
The contract model is well test-
ed. The Sheriff’s Office, which
already patrols all unincorporated
areas of the county, provides con-
tract police services to Woodside
and Portola Valley, is the “transit
police” for SamTrans and
Caltrain, and is in serious negotia-
tions with San Carlos. The San
Carlos commissioned consultant
study on police services reported
that nearly half of the cities in
Los Angeles County contract with
their sheriff’s office (including
such cities as diverse as Malibu
and Lynwood) and that most
newly formed cities throughout
the state are contract cities.
Cupertino, Saratoga and Los Altos
Hills contract with the Santa
Clara County Sheriff’s Office.
The San Carlos study also con-
cluded that mergers of police
departments and formation of
joint power authorities for police
services have proven to be prob-
lematic. Based on my experience
spanning more than two decades
as a mayor, councilman and chair
of six county and regional boards
that have included elected city
councilmembers and members of
the board of supervisors of the
counties of San Mateo, Santa
Clara, San Francisco and
Alameda, I know how difficult it
is for cities to give up their per-
ceived turf and work together. The
success of joint power agencies is
highly dependent upon elected
city councilmembers from neigh-
boring cities having long-term
mutual trust and respect. That
clearly proves difficult.
There are additional challenges
for combining fire/paramedic first
responder services but there are
great examples in San Mateo
County of departments working
together, or merging. The union
representing firefighters through-
out the county has long been
interested in looking at having
one county fire department but
that is unlikely to ever occur.
Fire/paramedic first responder
service is extraordinarily success-
ful but expensive and not always
efficient. The failed San Carlos
Belmont Joint Powers Agency for
fire services provides a model that
I think few would want to emu-
late. But even contracts for limit-
ed services with adjoining cities
can make a real difference. The
Redwood City fire chief reported
during budget deliberations that
there is a Redwood City fire sta-
tion and a Woodside Fire
Protection District fire station
about one mile apart from each
other which together average
about two calls a day. Redwood
City and the Woodside Fire
Protection District should consid-
er contracting in which either one
of the two stations closes, or they
open on a rotating basis, with
services and cost savings shared.
Change is tough. The San
Carlos Police Officers Association
opposed contracting with the
Sheriff’s Office, but their attempt
to thwart the plan by placing an
initiative on the ballot fizzled and,
according to media reports, the

Of course it’s the federal government’s

The argument, which we acknowledge may
prevail in court, is a laugher in the court of
public opinion because it’s undercut by the
historic failure of federal lawmakers and suc-

NEW YORK — A weaker economic

chilled the stock market’s winning
streak.
Stocks closed mixed Wednesday, with
the Dow Jones industrial average rising

prices rose as investors, again uneasy
about the strength of the economic
recovery, went in search of safe invest-

The Fed’s economic forecast was only
slightly more downbeat than the outlook
issued in April. And investors have been

Fed paints weaker picture
By Martin Crutsinger
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Federal Reserve
officials have a slightly dimmer view of
the economy than they did in April,
reflecting worries about how the
European debt crisis could affect U.S.
growth and job prospects.
Fed officials said Wednesday in an
updated economic forecast that they
think the economy, as measured by the
gross domestic product, will grow
between 3 percent and 3.5 percent this
year. That’s a downward revision from a
growth range in their April forecast of
3.2 percent to 3.7 percent.
The Fed’s latest forecast sees the
unemployment rate, now at 9.5 percent,
possibly staying at that figure or in the
best case falling to 9.2 percent. In the
April forecast, the Fed had a slightly
lower bottom number of 9.1 percent.

The Fed lowered its projection for the
gross domestic product, the broadest
measure of the economy, and said GDP
will grow between 3 percent and 3.5
percent this year. That’s down from the
3.2 percent to 3.7 percent forecast in
April.
The central bank also said the unem-
ployment rate, now at 9.5 percent, will at
best fall to 9.2 percent. In its April fore-
cast, the Fed had a slightly lower bottom
number of 9.1 percent.
The Fed also released minutes from its
June 22-23 meeting, at which it found
that “economic developments abroad”
could hurt the U.S. economy. That’s a
reference to the debt crisis that began in
Greece and threatened to spread to other
European countries.

no real surprises, investors are particu-

Fed eyes steps to bolster recovery

No new specific steps were disclosed

However, if the recovery were to
deteriorate, Fed policymakers have
options. They could revive programs to
buy mortgage securities or government

pay for emergency Fed loans. The Fed
also could create a new program to
spark more lending to businesses and
consumers in a bid to lure them to

Consistency

Giants ready to make playoff push

By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — Aubrey
Huff is ready for the San Francisco
Giants to start hitting consistently. If
not, he realizes they could play
themselves right out of the playoff
race.
San Francisco sure showed signs
of getting back on track during its
recent 7-3 road trip to finish up a 47-
41 first half. The Giants sit four
games back of the NL West-leading
San Diego Padres at the midpoint.
They scored 36 runs in sweeping
a four-game series at Milwaukee
last week, then took two of three
from Washington. Right away
they’ll get four games with the New
York Mets, beginning Thursday
night at AT&T Park.
“It’s that time of the year we need
to hit,” Huff said. “The pieces are
here. If we can figure out where they
all fit we’ll start to roll. We’re start-
ing to find the slots now and where
everybody fits.”
San Francisco needs to play better
in the season’s second half to keep
up with San Diego and surging
Colorado to stay in contention for
the club’s first postseason berth
since 2003. The Giants were in the
NL wild card race until mid-
September last year and everybody
involved has high hopes for finally
getting over the hump in 2010.
It would be a major disappoint-
ment for this club not to do so.
Manager Bruce Bochy and GM
Brian Sabean had to exercise some
patience early, waiting for key play-
ers like second baseman Freddy
Sanchez, shortstop Edgar Renteria
and center fielder Aaron Rowand to
“ The pieces
are here.If
we can

all fit we’ll

recover from injuries that required
disabled list stints — and in
Renteria’s case, two trips to the DL.
“Getting Freddy and Edgar back,
they’re good players,” Bochy said.
“It’s nice to have them back to add
to the offense and give the offense a
sense of confidence, too.”
Then there were the additions of
23-year-old catcher Buster Posey,
the highly touted rookie called up in
late May, and veteran Pat Burrell.
Posey, the Giants’ No. 5 pick in the
2008 draft, is batting .350 with
seven homer and 25 RBIs in his 38
games so far.
“I’m pretty pleased now,” Sabean
said. “We have some semblance of a
lineup. We have experience in the
lineup and depth coming off the
bench. You have to let it sort itself
out and exercise some patience. We
all did. Boch was good about know-
ing that.”
Free-swinging slugger Pablo
Sandoval, among the last players
left off the 2009 All-Star team, has
struggled to a disappointing .263
batting average with only six
homers and 34 RBIs. Not the kind
of start the Kung Fu Panda was
counting on last winter during his
well-publicized offseason shapeup.
The Giants need more from their
big guy in the second half.
“It’s surprising,” Dodgers manag-
er Joe Torre said. “We know he
doesn’t necessarily have a strike
zone but that doesn’t keep him from
being a menacing guy up there. It’s
early.”
Perhaps it is, but players know
that when they turn the corner into
the second half the pressure is on.
Bochy stresses to his club the
importance of winning series.
“That’s what it’s all about,” he
said. “We’ve got to pick it up. San
Diego’s playing well. The last thing
you want to do is get too far
behind.”
After the four games against the
Mets, the Giants play 12 of their
next 16 against the division with
only one off day during that stretch.
“You don’t want to get seven or
eight games out,” Huff said. “You
want to stay afloat.”

Patrick finding stock cars tough to handle

By Chris Jenkins
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
JOLIET, Ill. — Those who know
Danica Patrick mainly for racy
photo shoots and commercials are
seeing something decidedly differ-
ent in her public persona these days:
humility.
For a high-profile driver trying to
make the transition from IndyCar to
NASCAR, responding to high
expectations by running outside the
top 20 is a formula for modesty.
“I just have a lot to learn,” Patrick
said. “I don’t want to make excuses.
It’s hard. So I think it’s been OK. I
don’t know what else to say. I’m
learning. I’m learning what I’m sup-
posed to be doing, I’m learning with
people watching — which is hard.
But it’s just the way it is and I’m
lucky that people are watching.”
Patrick finished 24th in Friday
night’s Nationwide series race at
Chicagoland Speedway, her best
finish in five starts in NASCAR’s
second-tier series this season.
Despite her tough transition, Patrick
remains upbeat that she’ll eventual-
ly have success. Even if it’s going to
take more time than she might have

that’s what you need to win ball games. The
kids are already looking forward to playing
again, so it’s going to be interesting to see
what happens.”
Wednesday’s contest was close until things
got away from San Mateo in the bottom of the
sixth inning. San Mateo trailed only 2-1 enter-
ing the stanza only to see things go awry in a
hurry. After Anthony Higuero and Jake
Steenvoorde drew walks, Dominic Fonseca,
Ian Sanchez and Oscar Gutierrez all hit slow,
bouncing balls — the latter two coming on
bunts — back to San Mateo starting pitcher
Alan Katz.
But all three balls turned golden for San
Bruno. Fonseca reached on a throwing error to
score one run, Sanchez reached on a fielder’s
choice after Steenvorde beat Katz’s throw to
home plate and Gutierrez reached on another
San Mateo throwing error that allowed two
more runs to score to make it 6-1.
Gutierrez advanced all the way to third base
on the play, and moments later scored on Tim
Gretter’s sharp single to right field to cap the
uprising. All told, San Mateo committed five
errors that led to five San Bruno runs.
“(Making key mistakes at crucial moments)
has been something that has shot us in the foot
the whole tournament,” San Mateo manager
Wesley You said. “(Whether it’s) bunt cover-
age or communication, we’ve been having
problems in those areas at the wrong time in
the game. We definitely didn’t help ourselves
out.”
Indeed. The White Sox outhit San Bruno, 7-
6, but was undone by their shoddy defense.
San Bruno, meanwhile, finished with only one
error to back up a stellar start from Ryan
Brown, who allowed just one earned run over
6 1/3 innings. Gretter came in and recorded
the final two outs.
“Ryan just got back from vacation and it’s
great having him back,” Stagnaro said. “He
always starts a little slow and we wish we
could just start the game in the second inning.
But once he gets going, he usually does well.”
Up until the sixth, both teams failed to pro-
duce in key situations. The squads combined
to leave 14 runners on base — seven each —
as Brown and Katz (5 innings, two earned
runs) were at their best when the opposing
team threatened to score.
San Bruno went up 1-0 in the first on a J.J.
Desanto single before San Mateo tied things
up in the top of the second on a single from
James Egan. However, San Bruno took the
lead for good on Fonseca’s run-scoring
groundout in the fifth. The White Sox added a
run in the seventh, but it wasn’t nearly enough
after they let things slip away in the sixth.
“It seems like we were coming from behind
the whole tournament and today we just put
ourselves too deep in the hole,” You said.
Alex Tyler led San Mateo with two singles,
while Gretter had two hits for San Bruno.
There was only one extra base hit — a double
from San Bruno’s Lucy Molina with two outs
in the fifth inning.

seasons, the Giants’ pitching staff has
endured periods of little offensive support,
putting all the pressure on the arms. When
the Giants aren’t swinging the bats, the pitch-
ing has to be almost perfect. Once again,
Matt Cain is having a superb year ERA wise,
but as has been the case for most of his
Giants’ career, run support has been lacking.
Tim Lincecum went through a funk, but
appears to coming out of it. Newcomer
Madison Bumgarner is arguably the best
pitcher over the last couple of weeks, Barry
Zito has been solid, while Jonathan Sanchez
has been the usual headcase he’s been since
coming up. But, the Giants do have the third-
best team ERA in the National League.
The hitting has been more problematic.
Between grounding into a league-leading
number of double plays and their penchant
for leaving runners on base, the Giants need
to pick up their offensive game. Driving in a
few more of those base runners, as well as
limiting the double plays would do wonders
for the offense.
So would a re-energized Pablo Sandoval.
Perhaps he’s just going through a sophomore
slump, but he appears to be thinking too
much and lunging too often at the plate. If he
can approach the player who was one of the
rising stars in the game last season, the
Giants have a legitimate shot at winning the
National League West.
To do that, however, the Giants have to
play better against division opponents. In the
first half, the Giants went 9-20 against the
West, which is completely unacceptable.
They’ll have a chance to turn it around,
beginning with the second series of the sec-
ond half, when they travel to Los Angeles to
play the Dodgers for a three-game set.
If the Giants do decide they need to make
a move, here’s hoping it’s a “Wow!” move. If
they’re going to trade one of their front-line
pitchers, it better be for an impact player. No
more Shea Hillenbrands or Ryan Garkos. It’s
time the Giants get value for value, and it’s
time they start valuing their players more
than they value the player they’re trying to
get.
Unless it’s a knock-your-socks off kind of
deal, I believe the Giants dance with who
they brought.

Henry signs with MLS’s Red Bulls
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SECAUCUS, N.J. — Stop the rumors about
French forward Thierry Henry joining the New
York Red Bulls. He’s here.
The 32-year-old former Arsenal and Barcelona
player signed a multiyear contract on Wednesday
and he is expected to make his Red Bulls’ debut
on July 22 in an exhibition against Premier
League club Tottenham.
“Some people might think I am going to go
there for vacation — I do actually go there for
vacation — but it won’t be for vacation this time,”
Henry said in a video interview on the club web-
site. “I’m a competitor and I don’t like to lose.”
Henry was released by Barcelona last month
after scoring just four goals last season.
“This marks an exciting new chapter in my
career and life,” Henry said.
Henry will be introduced at a news conference
on Thursday at Red Bull Arena in Harrison, N.J.

Coconut lights add an exotic touch
By Sean Conway
TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES
As most people know, the food we call
coconut is the white interior flesh of the
coconut palm tree seed. What may surprise
you, though, is how valuable this tree has
been to the societies that cultivated it. It has
been called the tree of life because it supplies
materials to meet so many basic human needs,
from food to shelter and much more. Palm
fronds are used for thatching roofs and mak-
ing mats. Coconut shells are used to make
bowls, buttons and utensils. They’re also
ground into a fiber called coir that is added to
potting soil to aid drainage.
Whether you love the taste of coconut flesh
or hate it — as with Slim Jim, opinions tend
toward the extremes — if you’re interested in
craft projects, coconuts offer a range of inter-
esting possibilities. A recent guest on
“Cultivating Life,” floral designer and set dec-
orator Aaron Caramanas, showed me two
innovative projects using coconuts: String
lights and candles. Both of these projects
would be perfect for a tropical themed party,
or for everyday use all summer.
To make the string lights, you’ll need 7 to 9
fresh coconuts or coconut shells; about 20 feet
of plain brown electrical cord; a paint pen; a
set of carnival light sockets with candelabra
bases and plug-and-cap hardware; and add-a-
tap male and female plug parts (similar to the
hardware found on the ends of strings of
Christmas lights). You can find all of these
things at a hardware or lighting-supply store.
You’ll also need a large bowl, a drill and 1/4-
inch bit and a chop saw (or hand saw with
vice).
Place a coconut in a wide-mouthed cup or
bowl with the three “eyes” pointing up. Drill

two 1/4-inch holes about 1 inch apart centered
on the top of the coconut, then drain the nut of
its liquid. Using a chop saw (or hand saw and
vice) slice off the non-drilled end of the nut,
giving you a cup about 4 inches deep.
Remove the coconut meat with a pairing
knife. Repeat for all the coconuts
Now prepare the cord. Give yourself about
8 to 10 feet of slack for plugging in the lights,
then mark the cord every 18 inches with a
paint pen. Weave the cord in and out of the
shells, with each pen mark centered inside a
cup. Individually attach the lantern light sock-
ets at the pen marks by sandwiching the cord
between the plug-and-cap hardware and
screwing it together. No splicing is necessary;

Go native with fruit

By Lee Reich
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Take a walk through the woods in many parts of the country in

coming months and you may find some tasty fruit dangling from
the branches of wild trees.
Some of these trees are also available through nurseries
because they are such ideal landscape plants, naturally blending
with their surroundings to provide beauty as well as food.
Native tree fruit are rugged plants, usually able to thrive with lit-
tle care. Some people are surprised to learn that apples, peaches,
cherries and most other common tree fruit are not native. Unlike
these common tree fruit, which generally require rigorous atten-
tion to insect and disease problems, native tree fruit are rarely
bothered by pests. Native fruit have long been part of the diet of
raccoons, possums and birds, so you might be forced to share your
harvest with these and other animals. My experience, though, has
been that once these trees get some size to them, they yield enough
to satisfy winged, four-legged and two-legged creatures alike.
Native fruit also are easy to prune. In their youth, they need
only enough pruning to shape them into a sturdy framework of
well-positioned main branches. With age, these plants require lit-
tle or no pruning. Occasional dead or wayward branches need to
be cut away, but what’s required is nothing like the combination
of science and art required to prune, for example, an apple tree.
Like any plant, native fruit trees grow well only if given a suit-
able site. They bear the best crops in full sun, yet will grow well

Flowers benefit from pruning

and bear some fruit even in partial shade. Especially the first sea-
son, give them the same care you would any other young plant,
keeping weeds at bay and watering when necessary.
Here are my favorite native fruit:
• Pawpaw has also been called the Hoosier banana, the
Michigan banana, the whatever-state-it-grows-in banana. It is
native throughout the East, as far west as Nebraska. The fruit
tastes similar to banana, with some vanilla custard, mango and
pineapple mixed in. The texture is smooth and creamy, also
banana-like, except for the inedible, lima-bean-size seeds in the
flesh. The medium-size tree has a pyramidal form and long, lush
green leaves that turn a clear yellow in autumn. Although paw-
paw looks and tastes tropical, it can grow anywhere that winter
temperatures stay above about minus 20 degrees!
• Juneberries are native from coast to coast. Juneberry is com-
monly planted as an ornamental, primarily for its blossoms —
white or reddish, and opening early in the season — and for its
leaves, which turn vibrant shades of purple, orange and yellow
in autumn. The fruit are the size of blueberries and usually dark
blue, but that’s where blueberry and juneberry part company.
Juneberry fruit are sweet and juicy, with the richness of cherries
and a hint of almond.
• Mulberry fruit resemble those of blackberry in shape, but
range in color from deep black to red to lavender to pure white.
Fruit on wild trees often are syrupy sweet, endearing them espe-
cially to children. The best varieties, such as Illinois
Everbearing, have a refreshing dash of tartness. Illinois
Everbearing, like many of the wild mulberry trees you may find,
are actually hybrids of our native red mulberry with the white
mulberry, which was introduced from China over 150 years ago
for raising silkworms.

Flowers are the ephemerals of the gar-
den. They vanish without a trace at the end
of each season, so you would hardly think
them worth pruning during their brief stay.
Yet pruning can help make more flowers,
make the plants bushier or increase the
size of individual flowers.
So grab your hand shears and sharpen
your thumbnail for a stroll among the
flowers.
START WITH A
PINCH,FOR BUSHINESS
Pinching out the tips of growing stems
stops, at least temporarily, their growth, in
so doing coaxing growth of side shoots.
The result: bushier plants. Even though
plants such as lavatera, marigold and zin-
nia are naturally bushy, pinching out the
tips of their stems makes them more so.
Don’t carry pinching to excess, though,
because it does delay flowering; pinching
is something you want to do mostly at the
beginning of the growing season. And
plants with more side shoots will have
more — but smaller — flowers.
A single pinch is usually sufficient for
marigolds and other naturally bushy flow-
ers. Certain chrysanthemums look best
with repeated pinching. With snapdragon
and some other spiky flowers, you have a
choice: Do you want a single large spike,
or several smaller ones?
A PINCH MIGHT
MAKE BIGGER FLOWERS
Just as pinching the tips of stems makes
bushier plants with more but smaller flow-
ers, limiting the number of stems or flow-
ers has the opposite effect. This is how
you grow “football” ’mums and “dinner-
plate” dahlias. Create a plant with fewer
but larger flowers by pinching off side
shoots, pinching off flower buds forming
along a stem, or reducing the number of
stems sprouting from ground level.
Remove a side shoot or lateral flower
bud while either is still young and succu-
lent. The best time to limit the number of
stems growing from ground level — New
England aster and perennial phlox are two
that put on a better show with this treat-
ment — was earlier in the season, just as
growth was beginning.
DEADHEAD FOR MORE FLOWERS
Removing spent flowers — called dead-
heading — is yet another way pruning
gets the best out of your flower plants.
Deadheading does double duty, keeping
plants tidy and preventing seed formation.
Seed formation can drain enough energy
from a plant to slow or stop flowering.
Deadheading is especially effective at
keeping annuals energetic because all they
live for is to flower enough to set some
seeds. Then these plants slow down or die,
all in one season.
However, even some perennials will
come back for a repeat performance later
in the season if you cut back their flowers
after the first show. Try it with delphinium
and Canterbury bells.
Cutting individual, spent flowers from
mounded plants bearing small flowers
would be much too tedious. Deadhead
alyssum, nasturtium, petunias and other
such plants by shearing the whole plant
back with either grass or hedge shears
after a flush of bloom. Give mounded
perennials like basket-of-gold, cottage
pink, edging candytuft and spike speed-
well similar treatment. All these plants
will look ragged for awhile, but soon
cover shorn stems and leaves with new
growth and flowers.
Deadheading also keeps plants tidy by
preventing unwanted self-seeding.
Especially fecund plants include feverfew,
perennial phlox, thick-leaf phlox and,
with a name to scare any fastidious gar-
dener, giant hogweed hogweed (consid-
ered an invasive weed in many places).
Lop off their spent flowers before they
make seeds, or these flowers are apt to
become “weeds,” that is, any plant in the
wrong place.

DATEBOOK
Old-school ‘Dragon Quest IX’soars
By Lou Kesten
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The role-playing game has undergone a
remarkable evolution over the last decade.
Once, the genre was defined by its pseu-
do-medieval settings and slow-paced
action. But recent RPGs like “Mass
Effect” and “Fallout 3” have shifted the
storytelling into the future while making
fighting more visceral, demanding reflex-
es as much as strategy.
“Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the
Starry Skies” (Nintendo/Square Enix, for
the DS, $34.99) ignores all that. It’s a
complete throwback to classic sword-and-
sorcery RPGs like “Wizardry” and
“Ultima.” And it’s delightful.
The essence of “DQ IX” is as old-
school as it gets: You round up a posse of
diverse characters — say, warrior, mage,
thief and priest — and venture into the
wilderness. There are castles to explore,
dungeons to loot and hundreds of mon-
sters to slay.
The most old-fashioned element is the
combat. Each time your party runs into a
monster, the screen reverts to a series of

a significant drop in examining potential
victims of sex crimes.
Suspected victims of child sexual
abuse and assault in the county are taken
to The Keller Center for Family Violence
Intervention in the San Mateo Medical
Center for forensic examination. While
the total number of exams conducted at
the Keller Center from 2004-2009
referred by city police departments
remained approximately constant,
according to the report, the number of
potential victims taken for exams by
sheriff’s deputies declined more than 50
percent following budget prioritization
changes in 2007.
The civil grand jury recommends that
the Sheriff’s Office should reinstate its
permanent, dedicated three- to four-per-
son sexual investigation unit, including
all SHOP activities. It also recommends
the SAFE task force should be reinstated
and that the cost to support the unit
should be split between the Sheriff’s
Office and cities within the county.
“All law enforcement and particularly
those of specialized units are very much
dependent on funding. This is dramati-
cally evident in the current fiscal year
budget, when a total of 21 positions had
to be cut to meet budget requirements,”

ilar offering for some time.
Selling homes on unused property
could be a different approach. Another
idea is selling land from currently-
closed school sites, according to a five-
page staff report filled with ideas.
Trustee Maurice Goodman called dis-
cussing the out-of-the-box ideas the
responsibility of the board.
The district is poised to place a bond
measure before voters on the November
ballot.
“Not only are we asking the commu-

character to attack (physically or with

about a dozen other operations. While

developer
Level-5 has
stuck with it.
The pri-
mary quest is
suitably epic. Your character is a
guardian angel who plummets to
the mortal world after a cataclysm dis-
rupts the heavens. Your assignment is to
reclaim seven mystical “fyggs” that have
fallen into human hands, creating all sorts
of havoc. There’s an absorbing variety to
these seven missions, ranging from ghost
story to detective drama to a nifty Harry
Potter parody set at a boarding school
called Swinedimples.
That droll sense of humor pervades
according to Munks.
Munks said he sought support from
the county police chiefs but, due to their
own fiscal limitations, they were unable
to add staff to the SHOP unit.
Currently, the top priority for the
Sheriff’s Office is the construction of a
replacement jail to ease overcrowding,
according to Munks.
In response to a civil grand jury sur-
vey, 16 of 19 city police chiefs in the
county said that reinstating a county-
wide task force to coordinate sexual
offense prevention and enforcement
efforts would be of great benefit to their
communities.
There are 750 sex offenders who have
registered with San Mateo County law
enforcement agencies after their release
nity for money, we are willing to share in
the pain,” said Goodman, who added
exploring the ideas is the start of such a
conversation.
Goodman requested a list of possible
revenue-generating ideas a few months
back, adding there had to be unique
ideas that weren’t brand new.
Creating partnerships with other dis-
tricts, like offering lunch services and
hiring a grant writer were possibilities
that interested Goodman.
Other ideas include selling the naming
rights to buildings, partnering with pro-
fessional athletic teams, allowing com-
munity groups to “adopt” certain
schools by providing supplies, sharing
sales tax revenue with the city, charging
students for transportation to athletic
handgun while yelling to “shut the f—
up.” The men told Wilson they lived in
the same complex and to go back to his
unit. Prosecutors say Wilson retaliated
by asking “Who the f— do you think
you are talking to? You can’t talk to me
like that” and lowering his weapon. One
man charged at Wilson and was shot in
the upper left back, collapsing a lung.
The second man also ran at Wilson and
was shot in the abdomen but was able to
punch him several times in the face

from prison, jail, probation, parole or
mental hospital, according to the civil
grand jury report.
The civil grand jury report states that
the average sex offender will victimize
between 50-150 children before coming
to the attention of law enforcement and
that at least 50 percent of all convicted
sexual predators will re-offend.
The report also details the use of the
Internet by sexual predators. The
Sheriff’s SHOP unit in early 2007 esti-
mated that in the county, 3,000 minors
received online sexual solicitation dur-
ing 2006; 4,300 minors met face to face
with a stranger they first met online in
2006; and 3,000 minors have been asked
by Internet strangers to keep their rela-
tionship a secret in addition to having
been fooled about the age of the stranger
the first time online.
In the county, Redwood City has the
most registered sex offenders residing in
the city with 142. South San Francisco is
second with 132 registered sex offenders
and Daly City has 98 registered sex
offenders.
Of the 196 sex offenders currently on
probation in the county, 76 percent com-
mitted crimes against children, including
49 who were convicted of having sex
with a minor under the age of 14.

Some adjustments concerning your objectives might have
to be made from time to time in the year ahead. However,
because of your ability to perceive the value of that change,
you’ll not break your stride one iota.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) - If you truly believe that your
ideas or concepts are superior to your peers, don’t hesitate
to push them onto others. If you are right, in time events will
verify your beliefs.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) - Utilize your talents to the fullest by
being imaginative, enterprising and resourceful in all your
activities, regardless of their importance. The results will be
most gratifying and may even be profitable.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) - Hang out with companions who
are both physically and mentally active. You’ll be far happier
utilizing what you have going for you than you would be wast-
ing your time doing nothing.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) - That significant objective you’ve
been eyeing can be achieved if you have the tenacity and
grit to pursue it. Lock in on your goal and proceed forward
without looking back.

which has you completely captivated and absorbed, and you
will seize the imagination of your listener as well. If you show
passion, they’ll respond.

you, including yourself.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) - Show the courage of your
convictions today by not ducking any challenges or mak-
ing difficult decisions and even your close friends will have
greater respect for you.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- A greater portion of your
time is likely to be devoted to helping others sort out their
problems or complications. However, being able to do so will
give you wonderful feelings of self-worth.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) - Overall conditions appear to
be rather promising for you, but even if something disturbing
should occur, you’ll be able to handle it just fine and without
breaking your stride.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) - Find more reasons to compli-
ment your co-worker than to complain and you’ll discover the
magic formula for not only getting along with him/her, but
getting that person to work even harder.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) - It just might be that time of the
week when a break is needed. Your energies are more likely
to be directed towards fun activities than they are to mundane
or industrious jobs.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
BETTY R. SCHULTZ
Case Number 120244
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: BETTY R. SCHULTZ. A
Petition for Probate has been filed by:
Martin C. Schultz and Malania A. Schultz
DePaul in the Superior Court of Califor-
nia, County of San Mateo. The Petition
of Probate requests that Martin C.
Schultz and Malania A. Schultz DePaul
be appointed as personal representative
to administer the estate of the decedent.
The petition requests the decedent’s will
and codicils, if any, be admitted to pro-
bate. The will and any codicils are avail-
able for examination in the file kept by
the court.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ister the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal represenative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection of the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: August 16, 2010 at
9:00 a.m., Superior Court of California,
County of San Mateo, 400 County Cen-
ter, Redwood City, CA 94402. If you ob-
ject to the granting of the petition, you
should appear at the hearing and state
your objections or file written objections
with the court before the hearing. Your
appearance may be in person or by your
203 Public Notices
attorney. If you are a creditor or a con-
tingent creditor of the decedent, you
must file your claim with the court and
mail a copy to the personal representa-
tive appointed by the court within four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters as provided in Probate Code sec-
tion 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. If you
are a person interested in the estate, you
may file with the court a Request for
Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing
of an inventory and appraisal of estate
assets or of any petition or account as
provided in Probate Code section 1250.
A Request for Special Notice form is
available from the court clerk.
