The Daily JournalWith gasoline prices on the rise,

state Sen. Patricia Wiggins (D-SantaRosa) has introduced legislation thatwould require gas stations to displaythe price difference between transac-tions paid for with cash and with cred-it cards.

“Drivers should be clearly shown

what they’re paying, particularly withprices at the pump rising meteorical-ly,” Wiggins said. “And gas stationowners must do a better job of tellingconsumers that they will pay a lowerprice for gas if they fill up using cashinstead of plastic.”

Some gasoline stations are offeringdifferent prices for gasoline based on

the method of purchase, with somestation owners discounting the priceper gallon for cash transactions.Credit cards can add about 2 to 3 per-cent to the cost of the transaction – ahigher cost paid for the “conve-nience” of using a credit card at thepump. In many, if not most, instances,the cost differentials are not adequate-

ly disclosed to the public. Californians purchase, on average,

about 16 billion gallons of gasolineper year. As of May 2008, the averageprice of a gallon of gasoline hadtopped $4 per gallon in the state -- anincrease of more than 69 percent overthe last 12 months.

According to AAA, the average

price for a gallon of regular gasolinein California was $4.60 per gallon thisweek. In Ukiah, prices ranged from$4.55 to $4.63 per gallon.

Wiggins describes SB 623, whichhas yet to be scheduled for its firsthearing in the Legislature, as a “con-sumer information disclosure” mea-sure.

Legislation aims to clarify credit vs. cash gas prices

The Daily JournalOrganizers of the annual Independence Day

fireworks display in Gualala announcedWednesday that they have canceled the fire-works display for this year.

The news of the cancellation is the latestskirmish in a yearslong war over the display.

The decision to scrap the demonstrationcame exactly one week after the CaliforniaCoastal Commission issued a cease-and-desistorder barring the show from continuing.

“Because the Coastal Commission does nothave legal authority to regulate Gualala’s

annual Fourth of July fireworks display, attor-neys with Pacific Legal Foundation have fileda lawsuit challenging the Commission’saction, on behalf of the Gualala FestivalsCommittee,” stated the PLF in a releaseWednesday. “Today, a Mendocino CountySuperior Court judge declined to issue anemergency stay of the Coastal Commission’sorder while the underlying litigation proceeds.A court hearing on the merits of the PLF law-suit is unlikely to occur before July 4.Therefore, this year’s fireworks display can-not go on.”

Commission staffers had urged the panel toissue a cease-and-desist order against the fire-works program, claiming it disturbed birds inthe area.

“A threat to birds has not been estab-lished,” said PLF attorney Graham Owen.

In its now-approved staff recommendation,the Coastal Commission disagreed.

“These exposed areas are part of a narrowand important flight lane in the PacificFlyway, providing essential habitat for feed-

Gualala litigation goes on, fireworks canceled

‘I am convinced thathuman flight is bothpossible andpractical.’

Wilbur Wright, 1899

By CAROLE HESTERfor The Daily Journal

“Never say die” couldbe the watchword of thisretired educator. Or per-haps, “never stop flying”might be more represen-tative of the avid aviator.

In a recent ceremonyat the Ukiah airport,Bruce DeVries, 75,received the WrightBrothers Master PilotAward from the FederalAviation Agency for 50consecutive years of fly-ing. The award recipientreceived a certificate andlapel pin.

According to the FAA,the Wright Brothers Mas-ter Pilot Award recog-nizes the efforts of pilotswho have followed andcontinue to follow theprecaution and awarenessof safe operations. Mostof all, it recognizes pilotswho have contributedand maintained safeflight operations for 50 ormore consecutive yearsof piloting aircraft. Oneday, DeVries’ name willbe included in the Smith-sonian Institute.

DeVries and two part-ners own a local planeand he gets up in the airas often as he can, weath-er permitting.

His wife, Gayle, says,“Flying is in Bruce’sblood. His goal is toreach the same age as JimAggi, who is still flying at85 years old. Jim isBruce’s role model.”

A native Fresnan,DeVries began his flyingadventure at age 18, earn-ing his license at age 19while he was a freshman

at Coalinga College, out-side Fresno. Flyinglessons were part of hiscurriculum (he majoredin business) and for anominal charge he wasable to pursue flightinstruction.

While in the juniorcollege, DeVries joinedthe Naval Reserves andafter graduating with hisAA, he entered the Navyfor two years active duty,stationed at Pensacola.

After flying for theNavy, in 1955 he went toFresno State, graduatingin 1957 with an educationdegree.

DeVries began teach-ing for two years in 1957at a migrant school inFive Points for a whop-ping $3,600 a year. To

make ends meet, hedrove a school busbefore and after school.

He married his wife,Gayle, in 1956.

“All the children in themigrant school wereSpanish speaking,” shesaid. “They learned Eng-lish really fast and theywere smart. That was agreat experience.” Theywere there two years thenmoved on when Brucetaught sixth grade atCoalinga ElementarySchool.

Then the couplemoved to Cupertino in1962, where Bruce taughtsixth grade. DeVries wasasked to teach the giftedclass for a year, then be incharge of the gifted pro-gram at Cupertino Ele-

mentary School (hence,moving into administra-tion).

While this was goingon, DeVries returned toschool, going to San JoseState for his administra-tive credential and mas-ter’s degree.

The family moved toUkiah in 1976, whenDeVries was first at thedistrict office, where hewas in charge of the gift-ed program. Followingthat, he became principalat Yokayo ElementarySchool for 17 years, retir-ing in 1998.

According to Gayle,their interest in each otherbegan early, “a typicalolder brother/youngersister situation. Brucewas a friend of my broth-

er’s, but a year younger.My brother used toalways take me to churchyouth group. When mybrother went off to col-lege, Bruce took mehome. We kind of wenttogether off and on inhigh school and thenBruce went off to theNavy. When he cameback to the valley, and hewas in Fresno State, wegot together.”

He and his wife hadthree children: Keith, 51;Kevin, 47; Kori, age 38,and six granddaughters,two from each family.Gayle ended her educa-tion career in Ukiah asassistant principal atPomolita Middle Schoolafter serving 15 years,retiring in 2002.

By SPENCER BREWERSpecial for the Journal

On Sunday, June 29 inTodd Grove Park at 6 p.m.,The City of Ukiah andKWNE-FM are proud to pre-sent the second concert of the2008 Sundays in the Parkconcert series featuring thesearing blues band, The FordBrothers Blues Band withRobben Ford.

Growing up in Ukiah, theFord Brothers, Patrick,Robben and Mark did nothear much in the way ofblues music. Their father hadsung some old country bluestunes to them as small boys,but they had to listen to theAM stations coming out ofSan Francisco to hear whatwas current and happening.When Patrick and Robbensaw the first Butterfield BluesBand LP in a local store, theywere intrigued by its coverand asked the store ownerabout it. They were told itwas there by mistake, so theybought it, took it home,played it, and were blownaway by what they heard.Within a year all the brotherswere playing together in aband, performing blues theway they wanted it to beheard.

After high school, Robbenand his brothers Patrick (ablues drummer) and Mark (ablues harmonica player)formed The Charles FordBlues Band (named aftertheir father) and recorded forthe Arhoolie label. Robben(on sax and guitar) andPatrick went on to tour theU.S. with Chicago harmonicaplayer Charlie Musselwhite,again recording for Arhoolie.

Though the brothers wenttheir own ways eventually,they all stayed involved inmusic on one level or anoth-

er. Robben Ford gained thegreatest recognition of thethree brothers with his solowork in the jazz and bluesfields playing with greats likeMiles Davis, JimmieWitherspoon, Joni Mitchell,Bonnie Raitt, GeorgeHarrison, Little Feat, TheYellowjackets and countlessothers. Robben’s first attemptat forming his own jazz quar-tet was picked up by leg-endary blues singer JimmyWitherspoon, bringingRobben to L.A. He toured theU.S. and Europe withWitherspoon and was seen byTom Scott, and members ofThe L.A. Express, who were

about to begin a promotionaltour with Joni Mitchell forher recording “Court andSpark”. Ford was invited toplay guitar on the tour andplayed on two recordingswith Mitchell and The L.A.Express. “The two years Ispent with Joni were the mostformative of my musical life.Joni was just brilliant andvery accessible then, and themembers of The L.A. Expressbecame good friends andteachers to me. It was great.”

Patrick founded BlueRock’it records and beganworking with blues greatsCharlie Musslewhite,Brownie McGhee and Chris

Cain to name a few. Heformed the Ford Blues Band,which tours the world over asone of the premiere bluesbands today. Mark, one of thefinest blues harmonica play-ers performing today, hasrecorded numerous recordsfor Blue Rock’it usingRobben and the Blue Line forhis band. These recordingshave consistently been thelabels best sellers.

Always a big draw andgreat band for Sundays in thepark, the Ford Brothers willonce again heat up ToddGrove to a blazing level ofsome of the best blues musicanaywhere.

When people start killingthemselves in stages with nomeans of explanation as towhy can this mysterious cata-strophe be stopped?

While teaching a class he iscalled out with the rest of thestaff to be told that there hasbeen an airborne virus that hasbeen let out in Central Park,New York by possible terror-ists and has killed everyone inthe area. Since they are inPhiladelphia there isn’t toomuch of a concern, but theydo release everyone fromschool.

This then leaves Elliot totake Alma and his friendJulian’s (John Leguizamo)family away from the area incase it hits there too.

Now can they get out aliveand possibly solve the mys-tery of what is causing thisbefore the United States is lostby this tragic natural crisis?

Special for the JournalSaturday, June 28, the Ukiah Players

will bring The 24 Hour Play Festivalback to the UPT stage for its third con-secutive year.

The 24 Hour Play Festival is one ofthe most exciting and popular events ofUPT’s season, offering audiences achance to see brand new one-act playscreated by theatre groups throughoutNorthern California in less than a singleday.

Here’s how it works -- on Friday,June 27 all the “teams” will be gatheredat UPT to learn the theme of this year’s24-Hour Play Festival. The theme is

selected at random and revealed to allthe teams who then send their writersaway to incorporate that theme into a12-13 minute play. The next morning allplays are submitted to UPT staff, whomust review it for length beforeapproval. Once approved, the play isrehearsed by the various teams in loca-tions throughout Ukiah, and rehearsedat least once on the UPT stage to deter-mine each play’s individual technicalrequirements, such as lighting, soundand the set.

All actors must have their lines com-pletely memorized on stage. Costumesare hastily put together, makeup

applied, and the entire cast is absolutelyperfect by that evening at 8 p.m whenthe plays are then performed in random-ly selected order.

Well, maybe not absolutely perfect.Heck, this isn’t just live theatre...this istheatre that flies by the seat of its pants.Ask anyone who attended the last twoyears, The 24 Hour Play Festival is ablast for audience and cast membersalike.

The 24 Hour Play Festival begins at 8p.m., June 28 at the Ukiah PlayersTheatre, located at 1041 Low GapRoad. Tickets are $10 at the UPT BoxOffice the night of the performance.

The Ukiah Daily Journal

From the desk of...Know the corporate system

To the Editor:After my last letter, everyone knows that

they are part owners of most major corpo-rations. Just imagine, you own part ofGeneral Motors, IBM, and Exxon, just tomention a few. Some 25 years ago, wewent to a U.S. Steel meeting in SanFrancisco. Steel at the time was having ahard time. We noticed that the board ofdirectors all had very few or no shares inthe company. We put a proposal on the fol-lowing year, the first one, that each directorshould own two thousand shares each, andpart of their yearly pay be in stock, and thatthey should hold onto them until they leftthe board.

As I said, proposals are only advisory,but it apparently embarrassed them, andcorporations throughout America startedmaking sure that their boards of directorsowned some fair amount of shares. In theirown clever way they paid them the samecash and gave them shares with no restric-tions on keeping them until they leave.Then we also noticed that most big corpo-rations had only white men, no women, nominorities, and all from prestigious colleges-- Stanford, Harvard, Yale, etc. It doesn’tmater if the whole board and managementare all Eskimos, as long as they are themost capable people for the job.

These graduates of these colleges are avery small part of our population, whichleaves out thousands of smart men andwomen. It’s a club, where these schoolslike their graduates to go to the top ofAmerica’s corporations, so when they kickthe bucket, they will leave plenty of bucksto their alma mater. The colleges have donewell with this plan.

We put in a proposal saying the aboveabout women, minorities and colleges.Since again it is only advisory, it apparentlyagain embarrassed them. Today, throughoutcorporate America, there is almost always awoman or two and an ethnic minority, andthey never mention what college they camefrom, which they used to, generally.

Oh, yes, we called it educational bigotry.Why all this story about this undemocra-

tic system?Because it is a monopoly, and that is the

reason for the huge pay to management. Nomatter the shareholders, the owners, say,they thumb their noses and give themselvesobscene pay. If a company does poorly,management fires thousands of employees,which has to be done to survive, but doesnot cut management’s pay.

I am quite sure I am right saying thatprobably most of the cities and counties inCalifornia, and probably the nation, are onthe edge financially with this housing bub-ble that burst, which is causing them to bein the same straights as Vallejo, which justfiled for bankruptcy. We hear talk frompoliticians who want to balance their bud-gets with cuts, taxes and fees, but cuts arevirtually impossible, as no one wants togive up anything, including the top brass ofcities, counties and the state, who shouldlead the way by taking bigger cuts to them-selves than what they are asking theemployees to take. Each agency will saythey are vital and underfunded, and also bigprotests over cuts will occur. We need allthese vital protections, police, firemen,medical care, legal, service, education,housing, but all of it affordable and effi-cient.

There are 47 million people in the U.S.without medical insurance, and they can’tafford any of the above, either. You can betthat all kinds of taxes and fees are coming,but every time you add taxes and fees, youthrow another group of people into theuninsured and unable to afford the above.Another person that the state has to pay for.These are all monopolies., which as I havesaid time and time again, bring only poorservice and higher prices. No on any taxesand fees.

Thank youTo the Editor:As the Executive Director of Redwood

Children’s Services, I want to take thisopportunity to thank all of those who opentheir hearts and homes to children andyouth in need of temporary foster care. Iask our community to join me in showingour appreciation to these wonderful fami-lies who help our most vulnerable children.

Approximately 300 children inMendocino County were unable to remainsafely in their own homes, on any givenday last year. These children face the trau-ma of leaving their familiar surroundings;perhaps the only life they have known.Increasingly, relatives and others known tothe children and their families are taking onthe responsibility of caring for them, easingthis difficult transition period. We arethankful for these relative and kinshipproviders.

When this is not possible, there are fos-ter families waiting to take these childreninto their own homes. Foster families pro-vide so much more than just food and asafe place to live. They, and their own fam-ily members, provide a nurturing environ-ment to help ease the pain and anxiety a

child or youth may be experiencing bybeing removed from their home. Foster par-ents work with our agency, the biologicalfamily and other stakeholders to help chil-dren return home safely or achieve a per-manent home through adoption.

We owe a debt of gratitude to all fosterparents and their children, as all share theirhearts, homes, time and energy with chil-dren who find themselves in great need. So,foster parents, please accept my sincerethanks for taking on this challenging andrewarding responsibility. You are trulyinvesting in the future of these childrenwho need a safe and secure environment inorder to grow to be trusting adults capableof productive and meaningful lives.

P.S. If you enjoy children and have thetime to give one day a month to providerespite care so our foster parents can go tothe movies or out to dinner, please callRedwood Children’s Services 467-2000.Please ask about other ways you can helpsupport the foster parents in our communi-ty.

EJ DIONNE JR.

V i s i t o u r w e b s i t e a t u k i a h d a i l y j o u r n a l . c o me m a i l u s a t u d j @ p a c i f i c . n e t

Will everyone dismiss Barack Obama’s Father’sDay call to responsible parenting as a simple politicalploy?

After all, the man who would be our first African-American president is struggling for support fromwhite working-class voters, many of whom have tra-ditional views of family life and some of whom harbordeep suspicions about black men.

What could be more reassuring to them than his flatstatement that “too many fathers ... have abandonedtheir responsibilities, acting like boys instead ofmen”?

“You and I know how true this is in the African-American community,” Obama said, speaking at aChicago church more theologically conservative thanthe Trinity United Church of Christ he recently left.“We know that more than half of all black childrenlive in single-parent households, a number that hasdoubled -- doubled -- since we were children.”

For a campaign that wants to fight Republicanclaims that Obama is a down-the-line liberal, here is atheme he has been talking about for a long time thatsimply doesn’t fit into anyone’s parody of liberalism.

Yes, his speech spoke of what government could doto meet responsible fathers “halfway.” But Obama’semphasis was not on programs but on the personalresponsibility of fathers to “be there for their children,and set high expectations for them, and instill in thema sense of excellence and empathy.”

Moreover, Obama told his own story as the son ofa single mother. She “struggled at times to pay thebills; to give us the things that other kids had; to playall the roles that both parents are supposed to play.”Yet he was devoid of self-pity. “I was luckier thanmost,” Obama acknowledged.

For a guy accused of being an elitist, he didn’tsound like one in this sermon, a perfect volley in thatphase of the campaign when his imperative is to rein-troduce himself to an electorate that still doesn’t knowmuch about him.

This is all true. But it would be unfortunate ifObama’s words were read only as an attempt to winwhite votes. It actually matters that a presidential can-didate is taking the costs of fatherlessness seriously.

Every social problem is made much, much worseby the abandonment of children by their fathers. Yes,social justice depends upon what government does.Yes, government should do far more to relieve the bur-dens on those who struggle economically and workhard for little pay. And, yes, racism is a damaging real-ity that explains many of the problems faced byAfrican-Americans -- including family breakdownitself.

But government simply cannot replace absentfathers. Government cannot do all the things that par-ents ought to do. The reason Obama’s speech isimportant beyond all of the short-term political calcu-lations and analysis is that it reflects a hard-won con-sensus that family structure matters.

When Daniel Patrick Moynihan wrote about “theweakness of the Negro family” in 1965, he wasdenounced for “blaming the victim.” This was a mis-reading of what Moynihan was saying, and also of thepurpose of his words. Moynihan’s view was vindicat-ed years later when many of the most importantAfrican-American advocates of equality came to seestrengthening the black family as essential to the civilrights agenda.

All politicians should be required to readMoynihan’s 1986 book “Family and Nation.” It makeshis essential point that “no government, however firmmight be its wish, can avoid having policies that pro-foundly influence family relationships.” He contin-ued: “The only option is whether these will be pur-poseful, intended policies or whether they will beresidual, derivative, in a sense, concealed ones.” Itaugurs well that Obama clearly stands with Moynihan.

-- -- --Another of Moynihan’s good deeds was to discov-

er the talents of a young man from Buffalo, N.Y.,named Tim Russert, who died Friday at 58. Notenough can be said about Tim’s many random acts ofkindness (which our family experienced) or his down-to-the-precinct-level love of politics.

There are two things about Tim I particularlyadmired: his devotion to his roots in Buffalo’s work-ing class, which included a loyalty to his religiousfaith, and his devotion to fatherhood, as both a dad anda son. It made perfect sense that someone who tookfatherhood so seriously got his first big break workingfor Pat Moynihan. It is an accident of timing thatTim’s passing received so much attention on aFather’s Day. That is a great sadness because heshould have been granted so many more of them. Butthe honor was wholly right and just.

Tyler Scaturro finished a homershort of the cycle while leading hisMendo Joe Dimaggio League teamto a 9-5 win over Napa onWednesday evening.

Scaturro was 3 for 3 with a single,double and triple and an RBI fromthe plate. Then in the sixth, he cameon in relief of Jacob Smith andpitched the final two innings for thesave, striking out the side in the sixthin the process.

Mendo (4-0) fell behind quicklyas Napa put three runs across in thetop half of the first inning off of

starter Alex Delgado. After making ita 3-1 game in the bottom of theinning when an RBI single by MarkPedersen scored Scaturro, Delgadosettled in nicely as he put up zerosfor the next three frames.

Delgado left the game after pitch-ing four innings in which he allowedthree runs -- just two earned -- off oftwo hits and three walks. He alsostruck out three.

Mendo wouldn’t let him leavewithout some run support though,and in the third inning the offensebegan to come through.

It started with Delgado helping hisown cause with a one-out single. Eric

McBurney who was 1 for 4 with twoRBI’s followed with an RBI-doubleand after Scaturro was hit by a pitch,Pedersen was walked to load thebases. After a good at bat, MattMadrigal was also hit by a pitch withtwo outs to score the tying run.

For the next three innings Mendowould plate two runs each frame tostretch their lead out to the 9-5 mar-gin.

In the fourth, it was a McBurneysacrifice fly with one out and a RBI-triple crushed to deep left-center byScaturro. Then in the fifth, Mendomade it 7-5 after Napa had comeback to tie the game in the top half of

the inning when Larry Navarrocrushed a two RBI-double to scoreMadrigal and Michael York.

Napa was able to make a game ofit in the fifth after three scorelessinnings when they got to Smith whocame on in relief of Delgado. Smithfinished the game after one inning ofwork, three hits and two runs.

That would be all Napa couldmuster though as Scaturro came inand shut them down for the final twoinnings of the game. The defense byMendo also played a huge role intheir ability to hold the lead.

Mendo Coach Mario Scaturro wasextremely pleased with his team’s

effort after the game and praised thedefense when asked for the key tothe win: “Defense, defense, defense.That certainly sticks in my headtoday. That’s a quality team overthere...timely hitting from the rightspots in the batting order was alsohuge for us.”

In addition to the great game fromScaturro, Mendo was led byPedersen who finished 2 for 3 withtwo RBI’s; McBurney who was 1 for3 with two RBI’s and Navarro had a1 for 3 day with two RBI’s.

Mendo returns to action onSaturday with a double-headeragainst Kelseyville at MendocinoCollege beginning at 11 a.m.

BOSTON — When the BostonCeltics built a new practice facility,they surrounded the court withtheir 16 NBA championship ban-ners and left a blank space for No.17.

The message was a bit too sub-tle for Doc Rivers.

The Celtics coach turned a spot-light on the empty spot on the wallat the beginning of this season sothere would be no doubt about theteam’s goal.

“They can turn that thing offnow,” guard Ray Allen said earlyWednesday morning, his left eyestill red from the first-half face-raking and the postgame cham-pagne spraying that accompaniedBoston’s title-clinching, 131-92victory over the Los AngelesLakers.

Allen returned to the floor aftergetting poked in the eye and scored26 points, including an NBArecord-tying seven 3-pointers,Kevin Garnett had 26 points with14 rebounds and finals MVP PaulPierce scored 17 with 10 assists onTuesday night as the Celticssmoked the Lakers like one of RedAuerbach’s legendary victory cig-ars.

A year after winning just 24games, then drawing bad luck inthe draft lottery, the Celtics com-pleted the most dramatic turn-around in NBA history with aGame 6 blowout that was equallyimpressive.

It was the 17th title for theleague’s most-decorated franchise,but it was the first for Pierce,Garnett and Allen; for Rivers, afternine full seasons as a coach and 13as a player; and for the owners whonamed their group Banner 17 whenthey took over in 2002 and nowhave to consider whether they settheir sights too low.

“If I changed it I would changeit to Banner 20 to set the righttone,” owner Wyc Grousbeck saidin an e-mail on Wednesday. “ButRed always said the first one washis favorite, and in honor of ourfirst one we are going to stay withBanner 17.”

It was also the first title forCeltics general manager DannyAinge also since hanging up hissneakers and putting on a suit.

“I just feel happy for the play-ers,” said Ainge, who won twice asa Celtics player in the 1980s.“They put so much time and hardwork into it.”

So did Ainge.His was an oddly timed hire, in

the middle of the 2003 playoffs,and he immediately concluded thatthe team competing for a spot inthe Eastern Conference finals was-n’t good enough to go much fur-ther. He began dismantling the ros-ter, acquiring draft picks, prospectsand expiring contracts withoutapparent regard to how they wouldfit together.

The Celtics did what they couldlast season to improve theirchances in the draft lottery, butthey landed the worst-case fifthpick in a two-star draft. Unable toconvince Garnett to come to a

For The Daily JournalOn Tuesday afternoon, the Tournament

of Champions got underway inHealdsburg for South Ukiah LittleLeague’s (SULL) Taco Bell Angels ingrand fashion as they dispatchedHealdsburg 8-3 in their opening roundgame.

Jeff Piver, the Angels All-Star, hadanother outstanding performance to goalong with his All-Star season. Starting thegame on the mound, he retired 13 battersvia the strikeout in five innings of workand allowed just two runs before reachingthe maximum pitch count of 85 per outing.

His real highlight however, may havebeen at the plate when in the secondinning with the bases juiced, Piver con-nected with a fastball and drove it over thefence for a grand slam. That gave theAngels all the run support that they wouldneed as they cruised to the first-round win.

Dylan Steckter relieved Piver in thesixth inning. With just 20 pitches to workwith due to the pitch count rule (in whichhe could still be able to pitch the followinggame), he notched one strikeout andallowed Healdsburg’s third and final run

in his 2/3 inning of work before givingway to Jordan Shaw for the last batter ofthe game.

Steckter went 2 for 4 from the platewith a double and an RBI. Shaw also hada good game offensively, going 2 for 3 asdid Blake Kesler who was 2 for 4 with anRBI-double.

Also contributing for the Angels wasCorey James who although going just 0for 1, reached base three times after beinghit by two pitches and walking once.James took a pitch of the middle of hisback and another off of his head butseemed to be OK as he remained in thegame, he’s a tough kid and certainly itwould take at least three to remove himfrom a big game like this one. TeakLarwood was also 2 for 3, Kyle Tellstrom1 for 3 and Maclavio Romero 1 for 2 witha walk. Defensively Dmitri Curley-Holman did an outstanding job behind theplate holding the Healdsburg team to thebases.

The Angels move on to play Mark Weston Wednesday night at 6 p.m. inHealdsburg.

ALAMEDA — TheOakland Raiders expect newreceiver Javon Walker to beready for training camp whenhe recovers from injuriesincurred during a robbery inLas Vegas last weekend.

Raiders coach Lane Kiffinfinally spoke to Walker byphone on Wednesday morn-ing, more than two days afterWalker was discoveredunconscious and beaten on aback street near the Las VegasStrip following a night of par-tying. Walker was releasedfrom a hospital after treatmentfor a concussion and facialinjuries.

“The info that I have is he’sgoing to be fine,” Kiffin said.“Training camp won’t be anissue. ... But until our guyslook at him, I don’t want tosay (the extent of Walker’sinjuries).”

Kiffin said Walker wasscheduled to fly to Oaklandon Wednesday evening intime to attend the final sessionof the Raiders’ organized teamactivities on Thursday, thoughhe obviously won’t suit upwith quarterback JaMarcusRussell and his new team-mates. Oakland opens trainingcamp July 25 in Napa.

“We are aware that JavonWalker was the victim of arobbery,” Raiders spokesmanMike Taylor said in a state-ment. “We have been told thathe will make a full recovery inthe near future and resume hispreparation for the 2008 NFLseason.”

A Las Vegas policespokesman said a largeamount of cash and expensivejewelry were taken fromWalker, who was pho-tographed earlier in the fatefulevening spraying a nightclubcrowd with champagne. Hisagent, Kennard McGuire, saidWalker was “recovering in aprivate environment” onWednesday.

Walker signed a six-year,$55 million deal with theRaiders after the DenverBroncos released him inFebruary. The 29-year-oldformer Packers star has partic-ipated in some offseason workwith Russell, though Kiffinsaid two weeks ago thatWalker was “a little heavy”for workouts.

Russell has been a high-profile star since high school,and the former No. 1 draftpick is fully aware of the dan-gers inherent in such a high-profile profession.

“There’s people out there,”Russell said. “Just be carefuland watch your surroundings.Watch out, or always carrysomebody with you when yougo out. Just watch yourselfand know that you’re repre-senting a whole bunch of peo-ple when you’re out there.”

Details of Walker’s party

night still were sketchy, andthe Raiders weren’t expectedto make Walker available tothe media on the final day ofworkouts, with Thursdayscheduled to be closed toreporters.

But Walker knows the dan-gers of nighttime partying bet-ter than most athletes.

On Jan. 1, 2007, a still-unidentified gunman targeteda car carrying Walker and sev-eral Broncos teammates in adrive-by shooting outside adowntown Denver nightclub.Darrent Williams, a defensiveback, died in Walker’s arms intheir rented limousine after anapparent altercation between ahandful of athletes and otherpartygoers.

Nobody has been arrestedor charged in Williams’ slay-ing. Walker and other witness-es said Broncos teammateBrandon Marshall hadsprayed that crowd withchampagne, which mighthave sparked the confronta-tion that led to the shooting.

“All we can do is educate(players) the best that wecan,” Kiffin said. “We can’tbabysit them. ... Not manygood things happen after mid-night, and this is anotherexample of that, anotherreminder of how dangerous itis out there.”

PHOENIX — Dominatinghis former team, Dan Harenallowed one run and drove inthree as the ArizonaDiamondbacks routed theOakland Athletics 11-1 onWednesday night.

Haren (7-4) limited the A’sto four hits in seven innings,walking one and striking outeight. Haren also hit a three-run double as theDiamondbacks paid back theA’s for a 15-1 drubbing in theseries opener.

Chris Young and StephenDrew homered for theDiamondbacks, who snappeda three-game losing streak.Arizona had been outscored35-7 during the skid, but itsdormant attack awoke againstOakland’s Joe Blanton.

The Diamondbacks gaveHaren all the support he’dneed with five runs in the first.

Drew, Conor Jackson andOrlando Hudson each singled,and Chad Tracy doubleddown the right field line toscore Drew and Jackson.

Blanton (3-10) retired thenext two batters before Younghit a 1-1 pitch 412 feet intothe left field bleachers to givethe Diamondbacks a 5-0 lead.

It was Young’s 13th homer,and his first since May 31.

Drew, Hudson and Tracyeach had three hits forArizona, which matched aseason high with 15.

Haren, acquired fromOakland last winter in aneight-player deal, gave up aone-out single and walk in thefirst but then retired the next12 batters.

He cruised until the sev-enth, when Haren gave up atwo-out double to CarlosGonzalez and an RBI single toKurt Suzuki.

Haren, who entered hitting.133 (4-for-30), added to hislead in the third. With thebases loaded and two out, helined a double overGonzalez’s head in centerfield to clear the bases and putthe Diamondbacks ahead 8-0.

Three of Haren’s four hitsthis season have been dou-bles.

Drew added a two-runhomer in the fifth againstChad Gaudin.

NFL | RAIDERSRaiders expect Walker tobe ready for training camp

By DOUG FERGUSONAssociated Press

Tiger Woods walked ten-derly out of Torrey Pines witha U.S. Open trophy he wasdestined to win on a left legworse than anyone imagined.A group of children called outto him and Woods looked overand waved.

It turned out to be a mostsymbolic gesture.

So long, Tiger.See you next year.Woods revealed

Wednesday he has been play-ing for at least 10 months witha torn ligament in his leftknee, and that he suffered adouble stress fracture in hisleft leg two weeks before theU.S. Open. He said he willhave season-ending surgery,knocking him out of the finaltwo majors and the RyderCup.

“Now, it is clear that theright thing to do is to listen tomy doctors, follow throughwith this surgery and focusmy attention on rehabilitatingmy knee,” Woods said on hisWeb site.

He sure wasn’t listening todoctors by playing the U.S.Open, a victory that nowlooks even more impressive.

Out of competition for twomonths because of April 15surgery to clean out cartilagein his left knee, he suffered adouble stress fracture in hisleft tibia two weeks before theU.S. Open.

Hank Haney, his swingcoach, was with him inFlorida when doctors toldWoods the preferred treatmentwas three weeks on crutches,followed by three weeks ofrest.

According to Haney,Woods looked at the doctorand said: “I’m playing theU.S. Open, and I’m going towin.”

“And then he startedputting on his shoes,” Haneyrecalled. “He looked at meand said, ’Come on, Hank.We’ll just putt today.’ Everynight, I kept thinking therewas no chance he’s going toplay. He had to stop in histracks for 30 seconds walkingfrom the dining room table tothe refrigerator.

“He was not going to missthe U.S. Open at Torrey Pines.There just wasn’t any discus-sion.”

And it was a U.S. Open thatwill be talked about for years.

Despite a torn anterior cru-ciate ligament and a doublestress fracture, Woods man-aged to win a major thatrequired five days of flinch-

ing, grimacing and a long listof spectacular shots that havedefined his career.

He went 91 holes on a legthat got worse with each day,finally defeating RoccoMediate on the 19th hole of aplayoff.

“When I talk about golf, hedoesn’t count,” Mediate saidMonday after the playoff.“He’s not normal.”

Woods, 32, did not saywhen he would have surgery,but he canceled a clinic thatwas scheduled for Tuesday atComerica Park in Detroit.Haney said the typical recov-ery is six to eight months. Thiswill be Woods’ third surgeryin five years on his left knee.

“There will be debatewhether he rushed back forthe U.S. Open,” said MarkSteinberg, his agent at IMG.“But I don’t think there willbe any debate that he rushesback from his next surgery. Hewon’t need to. Augusta is inApril. And if things goaccording to plan, he’ll beable to play an event or two orthree.”

Woods first went to Haneytoward the end of 2002 tooverhaul a violent swing thatwas putting enormous pres-sure on his left knee. Haneysuspects the pain has beenincreasing, and Woodsstopped hitting balls after hisrounds at last year’s BritishOpen.

“He’s been playing wayless than 100 percent for along, long, time,” Haney said.“It has limited him a lot inpractice. He’s going to comeback better than he’s everbeen.”

Woods was already plentygood, with 65 victories thatrank third all-time on the PGATour, and 14 professionalmajors that are second only tothe record 18 won by JackNicklaus. This is the 500thweek Woods has been rankedNo. 1 in the world.

Even in his abbreviated2008 season, he won five ofseven tournaments world-wide. Dating to the discoveryof the torn ACL, Woods wonnine of 12 tournaments,including two majors, andnever finished lower thanfifth.

“While I am obviously dis-appointed to have to miss theremainder of the season, Ihave to do the right thing formy long-term health and lookforward to returning to com-petitive golf when my doctorsagree that my knee is suffi-ciently healthy,” Woods said.“My doctors assure me with

the proper rehabilitation andtraining, the knee will bestrong and there will be nolong-term effects.”

Woods will miss a majorfor the first time in his career— the British Open nextmonth at Royal Birkdale andthe PGA Championship,where Woods is the two-timedefending champion, inAugust at Oakland Hills inMichigan.

“Tiger is an enormousattraction, there’s no denyingthat,” Royal & Ancient chiefexecutive Peter Dawson said.“But the Open Championshiphas had many exciting finish-es which Tiger has not beenpart of, and I’m sure there willbe more. It’s very sad. We’revery sorry that he’s suc-cumbed to the injury and hewon’t be competing in theOpen.

“We hope he has the speed-iest recovery.”

Woods also will miss theRyder Cup in September,meaning the ninth player inthe U.S. standings will qualifyfor the team. Coincidentally,Woods had mathematicallyclinched a spot on the team bywinning the U.S. Open.

“We sent him flowers forwinning the U.S. Open. Now Iwish I had put in a note ofcondolences,” U.S. captainPaul Azinger quipped. “Butthis is not about Tiger and theRyder Cup. It’s about Tigergetting better and his march tohistory.”

The majors won’t missWoods nearly as much as thePGA Tour — and the net-works that televise it — espe-cially in the second year of theFedEx Cup, which Woodswon in a landslide last year.

He still might be leadingthe points race in August lead-ing to the playoffs. Even withWoods no longer playing therest of the year, he will keephis spot in the playoff eventsfor which he is eligible.

“Tiger is our tour,” KennyPerry said from the TravelersChampionship, which startsThursday at TPC RiverHighlands in Connecticut.“When you lose your starplayer, it definitely hurts.”

PGA Tour commissionerTim Finchem said his concernwas for Woods’ health andwell being.

“We wish him the besttoward a speedy recovery,” hesaid.

Woods is private about hishealth and personal life, nevermore so than at the just-com-pleted U.S. Open. He didn’tsay anything about the torn

ACL or the stress fractures,and wouldn’t say how he wastreating it, only that it wasmore sore as the week wenton.

Perhaps the biggest sur-prise was when the injury firsthappened.

Woods said he tore theACL while jogging at homeafter the British Open lastJuly. He played on, going on astreak that included sevenconsecutive victories, includ-ing Dubai Desert Classic inEurope and his Target WorldChallenge, an unofficialevent.

He did not play overseaslate last year for the first timesince 2003, hopeful that restcould allow him to play morethis year. But the pain intensi-fied through the Masters,where he finished second, andWoods said the cartilage dam-age developed from the ACLinjury.

He bypassed surgery on thetorn ligament April 15, hope-ful that by cleaning out thecartilage he could make itthrough the year. What he did-n’t anticipate were the stressfractures as he tried to getready for the Memorial.

“The stress fractures thatwere discovered just prior tothe tournament unfortunatelyprevented me from participat-ing and had a huge impact onthe timing for my return,”Woods said. “I was deter-mined, though, to do every-thing and anything in mypower to play in the U.S.Open at Torrey Pines, which isa course that is close to whereI grew up and holds many spe-cial memories for me.”

Woods won for the eighthtime at the public golf coursein San Diego — a U.S. Open,a record six times at the BuickInvitational, and a JuniorWorld Championship as ateenager.

He called his U.S. Openvictory “probably the bestever.”

On Wednesday, heexplained why.

Season-ending knee surgery for Tiger Woodsstruggling team, Ainge tradedthe No. 5 pick for Allen.

Suddenly, the Celtics’prospects look a whole lotbetter to Garnett.

After signing him to a con-tract extension that wouldkeep him in Boston through2012 — there was no dealwithout the extension —Ainge made an unprecedent-ed 7-for-1 trade withMinnesota GM KevinMcHale to complete the newBig Three that won it all in itsfirs try.

“It’s a team that’s easy tofall in love with,” Ainge saidafter the celebration. “Theyhave a lot of guys who arereal caring people, that carefor one another genuinely.They play together and playhard and I’m glad to be a partof it.”

Ainge and Rivers have allfive starters signed for twomore seasons, and all butAllen are in the fold for 2010-11. Sixth man James Posey isthe key free agent, thoughmidseason acquisitions P.J.Brown and Sam Cassell arealso unsigned for next year.

The bigger question iswhether the Big Three, sohungry after a decade ofwatching other teams cele-brate, can come back and do itagain.

The original Big Three ofLarry Bird, Robert Parish andMcHale — the same McHalewho handed Garnett to hisformer teammate — wonthree times in the 1980s,reaching the finals four yearsin a row from 1984-87, butnever repeated.

“I know what it means towin a championship as aCeltic, and the place champi-onships hold in the history ofthe franchise,” Bird, now anexecutive with the IndianaPacers, said Wednesday. “I’malso pleased for Danny Ainge,Doc Rivers and his staff,knowing where they were lastyear and then making thedecisions to put them in posi-tion to win the team’s 17thtitle.”

ten dreadfully. Most of M.Night Shyamalan’s moviesaren’t too bad and can havesome incredibly creativeideas, storylines and interest-ing writing, but this movie didnot live up to its potential.

Acting in this film didn’thelp much of anything. MarkWahlberg is generally a greatactor and has been in many hitfilms, but between the plotand the dialogue in this filmhe just couldn’t deliver a goodenough performance to saveit.

Finally, the plot in myopinion killed whatever wasleft of what could have been apossible film to watch. Thismovie has no real answersand gives the audience noth-ing to work with. The writingfor both dialogue and storyjust isn’t what it should be asa foundation for a film thateverything else must draw offof.

I highly recommend notwasting your money on thisfilm in theatres and seeing iton DVD, but even then I feelthat that would be a waste oftime.

Dear Annie: “Lynne” and I have been dat-ing for over two years, and her parents and Iget along very well, but a continuing situationwith her mother has me perplexed and angry.

Lynne, 17, has been working part time forthe last three years, trying to save for college.Several months ago, she confided that hermother has been taking money from her bankaccount. This amount now totals in the thou-sands of dollars. I do not feel this action is jus-tified or fair.

If her mother needed money so badly, whydidn’t she just explain the financial situationand ask for help instead of going behindLynne’s back? I think Lynne deserves to bereimbursed, but at the very least, she should getan explanation and apology. This money is cru-cial to Lynne’s academic future. Is there any-thing I can do? -- Mad in Michigan

Dear Mad: We don’t know why Lynne’smother is taking money from the account, orwhy she still has access. She certainly should

not be going behind her daughter’s back. Manyparents supply the seed money for a child’ssavings account, and it’s possible Mom hasbeen taking money she believes is her own. Or,Mom anticipates that she and Dad will pay forLynne’s college tuition and considers themoney an “advance.” In any event, this is trulynot your business. You should encourageLynne to discuss the matter with her parentsand visit the bank to set up an account in herown name.

Dear Annie: Well, it happened again. I havetrouble forgiving my dear women “friends”who beg to be introduced to my new beau andthen, in some offhanded way, remind him that

I’m older than he is. You can’t believe whatlengths they go to in order to make this point infront of him.

I’m so tired of comments like, “Fifty yearsago, when you and I graduated from highschool” or “Remember that women OUR agehave to consider ... blah, blah, blah.” They areotherwise really good ladies whose company Ienjoy -- but not when I’m with my men friends.

Please do me a favor and print this so theycan see why I don’t like to invite them to myparties. -- Fit and Beautiful from the Midwest

Dear Fit: If you think having youngerboyfriends is a sign of fitness and beauty, thiscould be part of the problem. Either you’repreening too much over your ability to attractthese men, or your female friends are jealous.By forcing your boyfriends to acknowledgeyour age, they are attempting to level the play-ing field. We suggest you ignore the not-so-subtle sniping.

Dear Annie: I had a different take on theletter from “Desperate in Illinois,” whose hus-band is friendly with a female co-worker. Shesounded quite insecure.

Men and women work together all the time.It is wrong to assume they will have affairs. Ifthe marriage is healthy, nothing will happen. Iwent through the same thing. After the indigni-ties of being escorted to work, having myhome phone tapped and my male friend treatedto a telephonic tirade, the result was, I lost adear friend and broke off a seven-year relation-ship that had deteriorated into accusations,mistrust and arguments over something thatnever would have happened.

Jumping to conclusions is the Olympic sportthat many of us, unfortunately, are pretty goodat. If “Desperate” continues to insult her hubbyby not trusting him and makes his home lifeunbearable, she will lose him and it will be herfault for driving him away. -- Secure andSingle Lady in Pennsylvania

Dear Secure: We believe in trusting one’sintuition. If nothing is going on, Hubby shouldhave no problem reassuring his wife by offer-ing to see this woman only under work-relatedcircumstances. But if he gives her a hard timeabout it, it means he values that friendshipmore than his wife’s feelings, justified or not.

ing, perching, nesting, andshelter,” stated a portion of thereport. “Gualala Point Islandis the home of several nestingseabird colonies, includingbut not limited to Brandt’scormorants, Pelagic cor-morants, pigeon guillemots,western gulls and black oys-tercatchers.”

Owen stated that even ifthis were to hold true, itshouldn’t be ruled on one wayor another by the commission.

“Birds are regulated by

California’s Department ofFish and Game and the Fishand Game Commission,” stat-ed Owen. “This is not withinthe Coastal Commission’sjurisdiction. IndependenceDay celebrates freedom fromarbitrary, overreaching gov-ernment power. Ironically, weare forced to fight in court,now, for the same principle.”

Owen stated that despitethe setback, the fight wouldgo on.

“The legal fight goes onagainst this abuse of power bythe California CoastalCommission,” he said.“Although the fireworkswon’t happen this year, our

lawsuit goes forward. We’llbe litigating to bring the fire-works back in future years –and to have the courts instructthe Coastal Commission onthe proper limits of its power.”

In other Independence Dayfireworks news, Fort Bragghas announced its display hasbeen scheduled at dark onJune 5 at Pomo Bluffs Park onTodd Point.
