BY SIMON WONG PHOTOS BY SIMON WONG The weather did not disappoint on August 13 when almost 400 visitors turned out to support “A Hot August Day,” the 11th annual car show at the Ralph & Mary Ruggieri Senior Center, Union City. Proceeds will benefit the facility and those whom it serves. Proud owners displayed 54 cars antique, custom, hot rod and original – all painstakingly restored, or customized, and beautifully maintained. continued on page 2 1951 standard-steel saloon, righthand drive Bentley

The scarcity of spare parts, dwindling number of craftsmen with the skills to produce coachwork and the need for ongoing, tender loving care mean either deep pockets, the ability to undertake auto maintenance or both. While this is not exclu-

sively a rich man’s hobby, it is certainly not for the fainthearted. “In 1979, I acquired my 1951 standard-steel saloon Bentley by accident,” said Floyd Nesper whose father sold Nash cars in North Dakota. “It belonged to my neighbor’s son who had left it with a body shop for repair. Before the work was completed, he passed away in a motorcycle accident. His parents eventually found his check, payable to the body shop, and discovered that the owner had sold the business and moved away. At first, the new owner denied all knowledge of the vehicle but after some argument and pressure, admitted it was sold with the business and agreed to finish the work. It was never completed.” Nesper, a mechanic with Chevrolet for 56 years, had just

restored his Model T Ford. His neighbors approached him and asked if he might be interested in purchasing the Bentley which is identical to a RollsRoyce of the period - parts and coachwork – but without the Rolls’ distinctive square-shouldered grille; the Bentley has a round-shouldered grille. “I told them I don’t know what the car looks like. They suggested that I accompany them on their next visit to the body shop and, if I was interested, I could pay them in monthly installments, make a down payment, whatever arrangement suited me, until the asking price was paid in full. It took 15 years to restore it to its former glory. I have the original owner’s manual and paperwork associated with this vehicle’s history.” “Production of left-hand drive models for the American and overseas markets began in 1949-50,” remarked Croft Jervis, a resident of Hayward’s Prospect Hill neighborhood and owner and driver of classic cars. This would mean Nesper’s right-hand drive, four-gear, stick-shift Bentley was purchased in England by the American owner. The Model T Ford and Bentley appear at car shows and take Nesper to church on Sundays. Driving them once a month keeps them in running order. He wishes to sell the Bentley and can be contacted on (510) 471-1640. Fremont Chapel of the Roses donated $200 to the event and was represented at the Ruggieri Senior Center’s car show by an original 1970 Oldsmobile white hearse, customized, complete with casket. continued on page 4

“The vehicle has been repainted, has a new roof, rims, engine and hydraulics. We converted it to a hot rod because we recognized that the friends and families of admirers of such vehicles would request it for funerals. Bikers, especially HarleyDavidson owners, like it because of the engine’s roar and process behind on their bikes,” explained Jeffrey Orozco, Chapel of the Roses. “Most funeral homes have black hearses but, as far as I know, Fremont Chapel of the Roses is the only establishment in the Bay Area that uses white equipment. We have three hearses and a limousine.” The customized hearse is also used for the police officerled Drug Abuse Resistance Ed-

Beating the Odds: Eddie Brown’s Investing and Life Strategies BY

Sell or stay? Stay or sell? In times like these, when the market resembles a cheap yoyo, you don’t know which to do. Should you sell your stocks before they drop further, or sit tight? Should you buy now that prices are down, or is that just throwing money away? The market’s a bear these days, which makes you madder than a bull. But when you read “Beating the Odds” by Eddie Brown (with Blair Walker), you’ll be reminded that it’s always best to keep your sight on the light. Life for Eddie Brown did not start out well. Born to a 13-year-old unmarried mother, Brown was just two years old when she abandoned him to the care of her parents and older brother in Apopka, Florida. Her decision turned out to be a good one: Brown’s grandparents raised him right, taught him values, educated him, and his uncle taught him not to fear money. At age 14, Brown’s idyllic childhood came to an end. His beloved grandmother died on the way to Pennsylvania to visit Brown’s mother, who was trying to rekindle a relationship with her family. Shortly thereafter, Brown was sent to his mother’s house permanently, which was another stroke of luck. Constantly hungry for knowledge (“Whenever I enter a learning environment,” he says, “I feel like a famished lion wandering into a butcher shop!”), Brown decided that he

EDDIE BROWN WITH BLAIR S. WALKER wanted to go to college but he didn’t know how it could happen. When a local community leader learned that Brown was eyeing Howard University, he arranged for the dream to come true by contacting an unusual benefactor: an anonymous

white woman who paid for Brown’s tuition, room, and board for four years. Brown craved an education, but more than that, he wanted his family to never worry about money. With an engineering degree in hand, Brown job-andcollege jumped from Washington DC to Florida to New York, then to St. Louis, Indiana, and to Baltimore. Along the way, he learned how to read the stock market, how the financial world works, and how to make money. He also learned four essential ways to protect a business.

Looking for some financial advice? You’ll have to be insightful here, because author Eddie Brown is subtle with suggestions in his book. “Beating the Odds” is really more of business biography than anything else but that’s okay you’ll be so entertained that you won’t care. From his moonshinerunning childhood in a heavily-segregated small town, to the making of Brown Capital Management in Baltimore and his lifelong dream of financial strength, Brown writes about his life and his path to success. What makes this book stand out amongst other business bios, though, is the dogged focus he’s displayed throughout his entire life and the way he shares it. Brown is a born storyteller and his tales are delightfully inspiring. Yes, advice is buried between the pages but once you start reading, you won’t mind digging. For entrepreneurs, investors, and businessbio buffs, “Beating the Odds” is a book to stay with. c.2011, Wiley $27.95 / $33.95 Canada 207 pages, includes index The Bookworm is Terri Schlichenmeyer. Terri has been reading since she was 3 years old and she never goes anywhere without a book. She lives on a hill in Wisconsin with two dogs and 11,000 books.

WHAT’S HAPPENING’S TRI-CITY VOICE

When is the last time your cat went to the vet? “Dogs come when you call them. Cats take a message and get back to you when they are good and ready.” –unknown author

ithout a doubt, cats are the number one pet in America. There are 82 million pet cats in the US compared to 72 million dogs. However, the number of veterinary visits for cats is declining every year compared to dogs. Veterinarians were alarmed to see a recent survey that showed that three times as many cats compared to dogs, had not seen a veterinarian within the past year. Dogs are pack animals preferring a pack of friends rather than be loners. Dogs spend a lot of time interacting with their owners and, as a result, people are very in-tune with their dogs. Cat fanciers admire the independent nature of cats. Cats are very good at hiding injuries and illnesses. For this reason, cats are in even more need of annual examinations to determine any hidden illness. A wellness examination conducted annually, or more often as needed, is the best insurance cat owners can have that their cat is healthy. Unfortunately, the disparity in care of dog and cat owners is

due to common myths such as: Cats are naturally healthier and more problem free than dogs Cats will display visible signs of illness like dogs do Health problems in cats come from going outdoors and they can’t get sick being inside These common myths do a great disservice to the proper care of cats. Cats are masters of disguise because they hide diseases so well. We tend to see our feline patients in more advanced states of illness than their canine counterparts. The disease usually has progressed further than the symptoms ex-

hibited by feline patients. The other reason many pet owners cite for not taking their cats to the veterinarian is the difficulty in getting cats into carriers and dealing with a stressed cat in the car and later at the veterinary clinic. It’s important to minimize stress for cats and desensitizing

Try to touch the ears, feet, tummy, etc. to get her used to being handled. Try dry runs to the veterinarian by placing your cat in a cat carrier, driving around the block to get used to the trip and desensitizing her. Cats are smart at hiding when they see the cat carrier. Get your cat used to seeing the carrier at least a few weeks before you visit the veterinarian. It may also be desirable to provide positive reinforcement by offering treats or other rewards in their cat carrier so they associate good times with the carrier. As a team, we can work collaboratively to ensure that our feline friends get the care they need; they deserve to live a long, happy, and healthy life.

SUBMITTED BY GWENDOLYN MITCHELL MARINA HINESTROSA The Santa Clara County Library District is announcing a one-day closure of all its libraries for Tuesday, August 23, 2011. On that day, none of the libraries and online services will be accessible, so the Library District’s technicians can install Horizon software, a major technology upgrade that will enhance the District’s Integrated Library System and public access computer system. Since District libraries will not be open for any onsite or online services, patrons are encouraged to use library resources before August 23, or wait until the next day before checking out or returning materials. “One of the benefits that this new system will bring is that in the future the Library District will have the ability to perform more maintenance, remotely from the Library District Information Systems Office,” said Melinda Cervantes, Library Director. “August is generally a slower time of the year, so this brief closure should have the least impact on Library patrons.

SUBMITTED BY FREMONT POLICE DEPARTMENT The Tri-City Animal Shelter experienced great success in the number of cats and kittens adopted during the month of July. In an effort to get more of our cats and kttens adopted, we are extending the 2 for 1 special through the end of August. In a desire to increase our adoptions, we are looking for permanent and loving homes for the 70+ cats and kittens that we currently have at our shelter or in foster care. Through the end of the month, we will offer a 2 for 1 discount on all second cats or kittens adopted by the same family. To view available pets, go to www.petharbor.com, type city name “Fremont”, check the box for Fremont Animal Services and finally scroll down and click "search". From there you can search the database of our available cats and kittens. You can also visit the Tri City Animal Shelter located behind the Fremont Police Department building and adjacent to the City's Dog Park at:1950 Stevenson Blvd., Fremont Hours: Tuesday – Friday: 12 Noon - 5 p.m. Saturday - 11 a.m. - 4 p.m. A typical adoption fee for a cat or kitten is approximately $125 and includes; adoption fee, spay or neuter, identification microchip, rabies vaccination, one year license deposit for Fremont residents and an optional FIV/FeLV test. Families living in Fremont would be required to pay the one year license fee of $12 and would have the option to pay the FIV/FELV fee of $29 for the second cat or kitten.

ew Mexico is a magical place. Go. Fly into the Albuquerque airport, rent a car with big windows, head north on Highway 25. The horizon stretches to infinity before you. Whether you’re from the east or the west

coast, the sky is so much bigger overhead that the clouds actually seem proud, afloat like masterpieces hung in the clear blue. Drive for about an hour and you’ll arrive in Santa Fe, an international destination for art, music and literature. You’ll find Native American carvings, opera, painting and writing. Like most historic cities, Santa Fe has its modern neighborhoods plus the old part of town surrounding the historic town center. The Santa Fe Plaza goes back to 1610. The oldest structures, the Palace of Governors and San Miguel Mission, were built in the1600s. Today the Plaza is home to restaurants, shops, art galleries, cafes, STILL LIFE - MORNING PEACE by Betty Nance Smith, OPA

and museums. Even if you are only here for 2-3 days, there will be plenty to do within walking distance of the Plaza. There are many beautiful hotels in Santa Fe, with an assortment of accommodations. On this trip, I stayed at La Posada de Santa Fe (a Rock Resort), located about two blocks

off of the town center. Lush landscaping and original sculptures create a garden of secrets in this oasis behind the hotel’s adobe wall. La Posada has nurtured an historic and yet personal quality that I have not experienced in other places.

Originally built as a private residence by Abraham Staab, a German immigrant merchant who made his fortune selling supplies to the Union Army, La Posada’s three-story main house was designed in the Second Empire French style, to mirror his bride Julia’s original home. Over the last 130 years it has been a private residence, an artist colony, a hotel, and now a world-class resort and art gallery. Each metamorphosis adopted a new vision or added new buildings. But Julia Staab’s love of the old house remains and some say her spirit still inhabits the rooms. One and two level adobe rooms, casitas and suites surround the now two-story brick building. Rooms are furnished comfortably, with first class sheets, lavender and lemongrass amenities, fluffy towels and bathrobes. Many have the indigenous kiva fireplace; free newspapers are delivered each morning, room service is available and Wi-Fi is included in a reasonable resort fee. Through the windows, paths are visible that wind through six acres where tall metal wind sculptures stand alongside flow-

LANDSCAPE – LA CIENEGA, by Kathleen Frank

ering fruit trees and stone statuary seems to spring naturally from the ground. But there is much more to La Posada de Santa Fe than the peaceful grounds and comfortably furnished rooms. The hotel houses a first-class rotating art collection, featuring the paintings and sculptures of established American artists. Multi-talented and elegant Sara Eyestone, artist and writer, is the resident curator. Her mission is to showcase emerging and recognized artists, to help them sell their work and make a name for themselves in the art world. Unlike commercial galleries, artists, whose work is hung throughout La Posada’s dining rooms, library, saloon, hallways, and offices, sell their pieces at studio prices. La Posada does not mark up the artwork. Thus, buyers are rewarded with affordable prices, painters and sculptors sell many more pieces, and the hotel is a gathering place for paying guests and regular gallery visitors.

Ms. Eyestone knows her artisans well; she can describe their style and mode of painting, as well as the story of their personal lives. For example, Kathleen Frank paints her entire canvas red before even starting her picture. She then pencils in a grid and fills in the details from a sketch she has made. The resulting work has a richness and warmth that is hard to identify, but definitely reaches out to the viewer. Another painter, Betty Nance Smith, OPA, sets up her still life and paints each item in the order in which it will wilt: flowers and fruits first, then backgrounds and foregrounds of vases, tables or drapes. Ms. Eyestone makes you feel “let in on the secret” so that each canvas comes alive, whether you “like” it or not. There is no pressure to purchase a painting, but if you do you’ll get a 50% discount on your next visit. Dining at La Posada was a satisfying experience. Eric Hall is a creative, veteran chef who

can twist a new dish out of an old standby. Though there is an upscale dining room, Fuego, the Patio Restaurant was always available and irresistible given the perfect weather. Chef Hall’s lunch menu included Green Chile and Carnitas Polenta Fries, Green Chili Kobe Cheeseburger, Bacon-Wrapped Scallops, and even a Club Sandwich for the unadventurous. A bevy of desserts competed with Mexican Chocolate Crème Brulee and a Summer Banana Split. If there had been a green chile sundae I would have ordered it. The wait staff, in fact the entire staff at La Posada, is exceptional. I travel quite a bit, but have never been treated with such kindness and competence. My needs seemed anticipated, “I’ll move this umbrella to shade your face. Of course I can give you a lift into town. A table will be here for you when you finish in the spa. I guarantee it (with a smile).” If you can pull yourself out of the La Posada cocoon, walk to town and around the Plaza. Any free guidebook from the hotel or the airport will point you toward the historical and cultural sights. For a “local” take on shopping, ask Ms. Eyestone for her private list of recommended shops. And be sure to hit Lucille’s clothing store, a totally “real folks” experience: good clothes, excellent prices, informal. And if you didn’t come in with friends, you will certainly leave with them. Lucille even gave us a ride back to the hotel! A stroll through the old town is as good as visiting a museum; art galleries on every block. But the museums are right there also – old adobe structures wonderful just for escaping the sun and cooling off. One of the most important cultural experiences in New

Mexico is seeing, touching and sometimes buying Zuni fetishes. It’s important to shop at authentic outlets. One such is KESHi (kay-SHE) on Don Gaspar Street. Established in 1981 as a co-op for Zuni arts and crafts, KESHi has carefully guarded their relationship with native carvers, jewelers, and potters. When you find a carving or piece of jewelry that won’t leave your hand, buy it, the Zuni are speaking to you. I promise you will be pleased. Though Santa Fe is known for its restaurants, you still have to be careful about where you eat and what you order. A recommended lunch place, the San Francisco Bar & Grill was disappointing. The Shed, a dinner destination with singing wait staff doing Broadway numbers was quite good, but stick with the local fare: deli-

cious green chile enchiladas and flan. For cooking aficionados, go to the Santa Fe School of Cooking for classes, ingredients or just useful kitchen supplies; it’s on the second floor at 116 W. San Francisco St. Finally. Don’t miss Doodlet’s, 120 Don Gaspar Street. It is a mecca for affordable funny-goodie fantasy delights, cards, toys, bumper stickers, silly books, and anything else that will make you laugh. I’m sure I could find a card that says, “How can I miss you if you don’t go away?,” a “No place like home” bag, or a tee shirt exclaiming, “We’re not in Kansas anymore, Toto.” And that’s the moral: Go away so we can miss you, you’ll be a more interesting person when you return, and let me know what it’s like in Kansas ‘cause I’m not going there soon.

SUBMITTED BY CITY OF HAYWARD Everyone knows recycling is good for the environment but it is also good for Literacy Plus, Hayward Public Library's adult literacy program, which is partnering with Planet Green, a recycling company that pays for old mobile phones and used inkjet cartridges. We need the community’s help. Each spent cartridge could earn the Literacy Plus program up to $5. Old cell phones can fetch up to $40. One phone might not seem much but if co-workers, friends and family band together, everyone can go green and raise money for a good cause. Taking part is easy – simply drop off used inkjet cartridges (inkjet ONLY) and old cell phones at Literacy Plus/Hayward Public Library 835 C Street, Hayward. Cell phone

batteries and even cell phone chargers can be included. Public participation in this recycling campaign will raise greatly needed funds for the Literacy Plus program. Let’s work together, one cartridge and cell phone at a time, to protect the planet and raise money for a worthwhile cause. Literacy Plus is looking for volunteer tutors to assist adults who wish to improve their basic literacy skills so they can achieve their goals, increase their knowledge and develop their potential. New tutor orientation will be held on August 29, September 13 and again on September 14, 2011. The next FREE training class begins September 17, 2011. Volunteers must be at least 18 years of age. For information and application, call (510) 881-7910.

Mystery inmate in US refuses to reveal name BY BRIAN SKOLOFF, ASSOCIATED PRESS

SALT LAKE CITY (AP), Jul 26 A mystery man believed to be his 70s has been locked up in a Utah jail for more than three weeks and has baffled investigators because he refuses to reveal his identity or provide any details about his life. The graying, disheveled man with blue eyes and a scruffy face was booked into the Utah County Jail as ``John Doe'' after being arrested for trespassing in the Provo Police Department parking garage. Since then, investigators have been publicizing his mug shot and reaching out to the media and public to figure out who he is. About 100 tips have led nowhere. “He's here on some misdemeanors but the fact is, we still don't know who he is. He could be wanted in another state. He could

just be a missing person,” said Lt. Dennis Harris of the Utah County Sheriff's Office. “For some reason, he just plain flat doesn't want us to know who he is.” Harris said the man was arrested July 1 in the underground police parking garage, about 45 miles (70 kilometers) south of Salt Lake City. He said an officer spotted the man peering into city vehicles. The man was asked to leave several times but refused and was arrested. The man faces three misdemeanor charges of interfering with an investigation, failure to provide information to a police officer and criminal trespass. He's been ordered held on $1,200 cash bond. He had no wallet when arrested, and Harris doesn't think the man can pay his bond. Meantime, the man sits in jail, practically silent, save for a few brief conversations with Harris and a deputy who have been trying to get

him to talk. Authorities ran the man's fingerprints through a state database but came up with nothing. They planned to submit them to an FBI database Tuesday. “The only thing that I can even elicit from him is he said that at some point in time, he would need to get out,'' Harris said. “That's the only thing he's given us. Whatever that means, I don't know.'' Harris said he has tried to get the man talking about family, his past anything at all - but he reveals nothing. “Sometimes he'll bring a smile to his face, but he's not giving us any indication of who he possibly could be,'' Harris said. “The guy appears to be fairly smart. He is kind and polite.” Harris said authorities don't believe the man is from Utah or has been homeless long, if he is homeless at all. The man has just about a week's worth of facial hair but did appear disheveled and dirty when he was arrested.

Fitch Ratings keeps US at top credit rating BY CHRISTINA REXRODE AP BUSINESS WRITER NEW YORK (AP), Aug 16 - Fitch Ratings said Tuesday it will keep its rating on U.S. debt at the highest grade, AAA, and issued a ‘stable’ outlook, meaning it expects the rating to stay there. That's better than the other two main ratings agencies: Moody's lists the U.S. debt at AAA but says its outlook is negative. And Standard & Poor's set off a maelstrom in the stock market last week after it took its rating on the U.S. down to the second-highest grade, AA-plus, for the first time. The S&P cited bickering in Congress over the debt ceiling earlier this summer, as well as the country's rising proportion of debt, for its downgrade. But Fitch said that it decided to keep its rating because the “key pillars” of U.S. creditworthiness remain intact, including its

“flexible, diversified and wealthy economy.” It also said that the country's flexibility in monetary policy gives it the ability to absorb economic shocks. The dollar's central role in the world economy allows the U.S. to hold a higher proportion of debt to gross domestic product. Fitch said it would revisit the rating after the congressional committee that is supposed to figure out how to cut government spending presents its findings, due by the end of November. The rating, which measures the possibility that the U.S. will default on its debt, has been a hot-button issue in the past two weeks. Standard & Poor's downgrade on Aug. 5 ignited a volatile week on Wall Street, with the Dow rising or falling by at least 400 points for four days. The government and some analysts have criticized the S&P's decision, calling it unjustified and

based on faulty math. The S&P has defended the move, and some analysts have said it is a necessary wakeup call for a government that has been spending too much. The S&P said its downgrade was based on political grandstanding this summer over the debt ceiling. The S&P analysts also said they predict that the country's debt a portion of output will continue to rise. The S&P has also pointed out that its downgrade is only to the second-highest rating, saying that the psychological effects are deeper than the practical ones. “It's like going from indigo to navy blue,” S&P analyst John Chambers said in a call after the downgrade. Moody's assigned a negative outlook to its rating of U.S. credit on Aug. 2. Analysts there said they were uncertain how much the congressional committee will be able to agree on cutting spending.

BY CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER, ANNE D’INNOCENZIO AND MARTIN CRUTSINGER AP BUSINESS WRITERS WASHINGTON (AP), Aug 12 - The economy might not be on the brink of another recession after all. Consumers, who drive most economic growth, spent more on cars, furniture, electronics and other goods in July - and more in May and June than previously thought. That burst of activity is encouraging because it shows many Americans were willing to spend despite high unemployment, scant pay raises, steep gas prices and diminished wealth. If it keeps up, the economy might rebound after growing at an annual rate of just 0.8 percent in the first half of 2011. That's a big if. Whether Americans remain willing to spend freely despite the stock markets' wild swings will determine whether the second half of the year is any better than the first.

Reports: BofA eyes sale of Merrill Lynch assets AP WIRE SERVICE NEW YORK (AP), Aug 16 - Two published reports say Bank of America Corp. is in talks with Blackstone Group LP over a possible deal to sell real estate assets previously owned by Merrill Lynch to the private-equity firm. The reports in the Financial Times and Wall Street Journal on Tuesday each cited unidentified persons familiar with the matter. The Financial Times' report said the deal could

reach up to $1 billion, but also noted that a definitive deal hasn't been signed yet. The Financial Times reported that the assets represent the bulk of Merrill Lynch's housing-boom era investments. Bank of America declined to comment on Tuesday. The Charlotte, North Carolina, lender has been selling assets in a bid to raise capital and clear up its balance sheet. An after-hours call to Blackstone was not immediately returned.

Bill adding privacy protection goes to Governor SUBMITTED BY TEALA SCHAFF Legislation by Senate Majority Leader Ellen M. Corbett (D-San Leandro) giving domestic abuse and sexual assault victims greater privacy protections passed the Senate on August 15, 2011, with a unanimous vote. “Victims of domestic and sexual violence suffer daily with the traumatizing reality of their abuse,” Corbett said. “This bill seeks to further protect these victims by safeguarding their personal identifying information on the Internet so that it is not available to stalkers seeking to do more harm.” SB 636, Privacy Protection for Safe at Home Participants, goes next to the governor, who has 12 days to sign or veto the bill after he receives it. Domestic violence, stalking and sexual assault affect millions of Americans each year, regardless of ethnicity, race, age, gender, religion, national origin, sexual orientation and socio-economic status. Survivors of these terrible crimes often continue to live in fear. Even after moving away from an abusive partner or predator, survivors can put themselves or their family members at risk with simple, everyday tasks, such as opening a bank account, getting a driver’s license or enrolling a child in school. SB 636 provides further protection to victims of domestic violence, stalking and sexual assault who enter into the state’s Safe at Home Program. The legislation prohibits participants’ personal information from being posted on the Internet and establishes crimes for sites that fail to comply. Safe at Home is a confidentiality program administered by the California Secretary of State’s Office that offers victims of domestic violence, stalking and sexual assault anonymity and a new start and, since 1999, has helped protect the personal information of more than 4,500 survivors of domestic violence, stalking and sexual assault.

Supervisors ratify contract with SEIU SUBMITTED BY GWENDOLYN MITCHELL/LAUREL ANDERSON The Santa Clara Board of Supervisors unanimously ratified an agreement with SEIU Local 521, on August 9, 2011, that will save nearly $78.1M from all County funds over two years. “Everyone worked together and wanted to make this happen,” said Santa Clara County Board President Dave Cortese. “I’m proud of the way our employees conducted themselves throughout the negotiations during these very difficult economic times. The tough times aren’t over but we’ll continue to talk and deal with each other with respect.” “When we use words like respect and dignified, we mean our employees have been astute enough to understand the difficulty the County faces and have done their part in making tremendous sacrifice,” Cortese continued. “The creative thinking, ideas, willingness to put forward opportunities of which the County can take advantage, to make the adopted budget work, were numerous and in some cases brilliant.” SEIU Local 521 represents 8,000 of the nearly 15,000 County employees in seven bargaining units. Among them are administrative, professional, clerical, blue collar, public health nurses, environmental health specialists, social service workers and the probation counselor continued on page 26 safety employees.

hough the summer days are waning, there is still time for an exotic vacation and the chance to experience another culture. Mexico? Perhaps China or the Philippines? But why stop at one? How about five? Journey across the globe in a single evening as Union City celebrates cultural relations with their 7th annual Sister City Festival. Established in 1987, Union City’s Friends of Sister Cities is an all-volunteer group comprised of 22 individuals, each representing and supporting one of five sister cities. They meet on a monthly basis, and many of the members also bring in additional support from their cultural and/or religious communities. A member of Sister Cities International, the

group serves to facilitate relationships between the sister city and

their own, bring people together and creating cultural understanding and harmony. Sister City relations first began after World War II when President Eisenhower proposed a “People-to-People” program, on the idea that if people wanted peace, it should be done on an individual, personal level, leaving the government out of it. He hoped that by people using various ways to learn about each

other, it would reduce world tensions and conflict. When considering possible locations for a sister city connection, the population of ethnic groups in Union City were taken into account, as well as finding a foreign city that shared a common denominator, such as a match in size or population. Union City has five sister cities: Pasay City, Philippines; Santa Rosalia, Mexico; Jalandhar,

India; Chiang Rai, Thailand; and Liyang, China. The public is invited to share in the celebration of culture and friendship on Sunday, August 21 with a dinner, raffle, and cultural entertainment. A buffet will offer a variety of ethnic food from local restaurants including Chow King, Federicos, Gerry's Grill, King Egg Roll, Mexico Lindo, continued on page26

Supervisors ratify contract with SEIU SEIU employees will take 10 unpaid furlough days off during the year. Also, County holidays will be reduced from 12 to eight in the first year. New hires will be paid at 10 percent below the current minimum salary for existing jobs. Employees will contribute two percent more of their salary towards retirement, for a total of six percent. Employees will now pay more for health plan copayments, depending on the health plan. Also, for the first time, existing employees are paying contributions towards future premiums for retiree health benefit costs. The first year’s savings amount to $45.2M for all County funds. In the second year, employees will be required to take four unpaid furlough days and only two holidays are eliminated. The second year’s savings amount to $32.9M for a combined total of $78.1M of all County funds, including the General Fund. “We celebrate our fabulous employees. It’s a very difficult financial time. It’s difficult to have concessions on the table. It’s very difficult for everyone to consider the stresses and challenges financially. I want to thank the members of SEIU. They have demonstrated they care deeply about the services they provide to the people of Santa Clara County. They care deeply about the County, so they came to the table and did their part. For that we shall be forever grateful. It’s a fabulous team effort,” stated Supervisor George Shirakawa.

The Sister City Festival is the group’s primary event, but they also serve the community by hosting events in relation to visiting dignitaries from the sister cities, and participate in the organization of the annual Asian American Heritage Festival in Union City. Money raised from the festival goes to support Sister City activities, such as transportation or housing for visitors from other cities and related social functions. While most other countries set aside funds to support visit-

ing groups, the U.S. does not, and all costs are paid by the Friends of Sister Cities. No city or festival money is used to finance member trips to sister cities; all travel is paid for using personal money. Treat yourself to a bounty of cultural tastes, sights, and sounds without leaving the tri-city area.

A sustained stock-market decline tends to slow consumer spending because it reduces wealth, especially for upper-income Americans. The richest 10 percent of Americans own 80 percent of stocks. And the richest 20 percent drive about 40 percent of consumer spending, analysts say. That loss of wealth may help explain a report Friday that consumer sentiment hit a 31year low in August. The Thomson Reuters/University of Michigan's survey, completed early this week, showed that market turmoil and the political strife over raising the federal debt ceiling rattled consumers. “The fact that retail sales held up over the last few months ... is a positive economic development,” said Joseph LaVorgna, chief U.S. economist at Deutsche Bank. “However, the true test will be to see if consumer activity held up in the face of recent financial market gyrations and slumping economic confidence. So the August data will be of much greater significance.'' The Dow finished Friday with a gain of 125.71 points, or

1.1 percent, to close at 11,269.02. That means the turbulent week in the end dragged the market down just 1.5 percent after it had plummeted as much as 6.3 percent. The Dow is still down about 11 percent since July 21. Worries about the markets and the economy already seem to have caused some shoppers to pull back. The International Council of Shopping CentersGoldman Sachs index, which tracks revenue at stores open at least a year, has shown two straight weekly declines. Claire Sanders Swift, a Washington media consultant, said that after the stock market plunged, she “sent her baby sitter home early and called her broker.” “I keep trying to remind myself we've been through this rodeo before,” she said early this week. “The fear is making me not want to spend.” It's a pivotal moment for the nation's retailers. They're in the midst of back-to-school season and are planning for Christmas sales. Together, the two shopping seasons represent up to half their annual revenue. Retailers are concerned that

the weak economy and stock market turmoil could cause shoppers to retreat as they did when the financial crisis hit in 2008. Back then, spending plunged so much that some retailers slashed prices up to 80 percent just to draw shoppers to stores. Others sold jewelry and clothing to liquidators for pennies on the dollar. Some went out of business. This time, retailers seem better prepared. They've kept inventories lean to avoid being stuck with huge piles of marked-down products. Jeff Landis of Chicago-based Montopoli Custom Clothiers said because business has been quiet the past few weeks, he's decided to delay stocking up on fabric for custom suits for fall. And Geoff Stern, owner of Toy Professor, a toy store in Summit, N.J., said sales this week were down about 25 percent from a typical August week. Until late this week, a batch of poor economic data and a gloomy outlook from the Federal Reserve set off fears that the economy might be about to slide into another recession. That threat appears to have diminished. But it's hardly gone away. Still overhanging the financial markets and the U.S. economy is concern that Europe's debt crisis will spread through the U.S. financial system. Investors worry that Italy and Spain, two of Europe's biggest economies, might be unable to pay all their debts. If they couldn't, big European banks that hold huge amounts of government debt would be at risk of failure. That

possibility, in turn, could harm many large U.S. banks with close relationships with their European counterparts. The mildly positive economic figures in recent days have at least given economists cause for hope. Layoffs are down. Retail sales are up. Gas prices have fallen. Employers added 117,000 jobs last month. That isn't enough to significantly lower the unemployment rate, now at 9.1 percent. But it was more than expected and was an improvement after two dismal months for hiring. Retail sales rose 0.5 percent last month, the Commerce Department said Friday. It was the best showing since March. The government also revised up its estimates of sales for the previous two months. Even after excluding gas station sales, which were boosted by a rise in gas prices, sales rose 0.3 percent in July. It was the second encouraging signal for the economy in as many days. On Thursday, the Dow rocketed up 423 points after the government said the number of people applying for unemployment benefits dropped below 400,000 for the first time since April. Consumers may feel better later this month as gas prices drop further, economists said. That would help increase their confidence. Gas prices have fallen 10 cents to $3.60 a gallon in the past week - down from nearly $4 a gallon in early May. In addition, stock prices have rebounded slightly since the consumer sentiment survey was completed early this week, said Paul Dales, an economist

at Capital Economics. “Confidence is very unlikely to stay this low for long,” Dales said. Most large retailers are remaining optimistic. Macy's Inc., Kohl's Inc. and Nordstrom Inc. have boosted their annual profit outlooks. Yet they're also concerned about the risk that conditions will worsen. J.C. Penney said Friday that it expects its earnings this quarter to trail Wall Street estimates. “The tumultuous last 10 days or so haven't given our core customer, the middle income family, any reason to be more confident,” said CEO Myron E. Ullman III. The retail sales report is the government's first read on consumer spending for the JulySeptember quarter. In June, consumers cut spending for the first time in 20 months, a troubling sign. Demand for cars has been low this year. But part of the reason is that dealers have had trouble stocking popular models because of parts shortages related to Japan's earthquake in March. Those disruptions are easing, which could boost auto sales in August. And that would confirm the optimism sparked by the retailsales report Friday. “At this point, a mild report is a good report,” said Chris Christopher, an economist at IHS Global Insight. --D'Innocenzio reported from New York. AP Business Writer Sarah Skidmore in Portland, Ore., contributed to this report.

Sobral prison warden Wellington Picanco tells the G1 news website the geese make a lot of noise when they sense “strange movements.” He says the geese roaming the prison grounds also will help alert guards to the outbreak of violence among rival gangs at the overcrowded facility. The prison was built to hold 153 inmates. It currently holds 255. Calls to the prison for more details went unanswered.
