Santa Monicans react to new graphic cigarette warning labels

BY JESSICA JUNG Special to the Daily Press

MID-CITY Purchase a pack of cigarettes and get a blackened lung, rotten teeth or an oxygen mask — these are just a few of nine graphic warning labels the FDA unveiled recently in what was the most significant change to cigarette labels in the last 25 years.

While the bold new warning labels, which will cover 50 percent of cigarette packaging, won’t appear in packs of smokes until 2012, residents are already reacting to them, and those reactions are mixed.

Michael G. saw a sampling of the labels last week shortly after purchasing a Big Gulp at a 7-Eleven on Santa Monica Boulevard.

“I think they’re ridiculous,” he said.

“They’re no deterrent. Anyone who smokes already knows what it does to them. I’m hooked, I’m done and I’ve been smoking for a third of my life, so this isn’t going to do anything to me. I already know this.”

While the FDA is implementing these new warnings to help prevent children from smoking and help adults quit, he doesn’t have full hope about its purpose for children.

“It may be a deterrent for children, but unfortunately just like any other kid who started smoking, it’s through peer pressure,” said the 44-year-old carpenter, who was peer pressured into taking his father’s pack of Pall Malls when he was young.

For 29-year-old computer programmer Carlos Montes, the warning labels do exactly what the FDA is aiming for.

“If I were to buy cigarettes, I wouldn’t want to see that and would not buy them. I would not want that to happen to me,” said Montes, reacting to an image of rotten teeth.

Walking on Ocean Park Boulevard with his sandwich and headed back to work, Montes started to lose his appetite on the second disturbing photo he saw.

“I just don’t want to see it. I don’t like them at all. I guess I’m supposed to link that smoking is a cause of their death? I think this is a post-autopsy? Scary,” he said about a warning label depicting a man on his death

Achieving the dream

BY ASHLEY ARCHIBALD Daily Press Staff Writer

SAMOHI Consuelo Perez looked every inch the consummate professional that she is when she approached the podium to deliver her report on the English Learners’ Advisory Committee (ELAC) to the Board of Education.

In her native Spanish, she eloquently made the case for keeping whole the funding for Spanish-language classes for students who are still learning English so that they can succeed in their studies alongside their English-language classmates.

Perez was late to that meeting, said Aida Diaz, the education services coordinator for the district, because she had just returned from a meeting with officials at City Hall advocating on a similar topic.

“I don’t pay attention to the time,” Perez said over breakfast the week before. “I love what I’m doing.”

A bowl of oatmeal and fixings lay untouched in front of her as she described “what she’s doing” — forging a community of Spanish-speaking parents of Santa Monica High School students and making sure they SEE CP PAGE 7

GOP claims win in holding out against taxes

BY JULIET WILLIAMS Associated Press

ticket sales. That was a boost for 3-D business, which had slipped to 50 percent or less of revenues on some recent releases.

“On Stranger Tides” passed a global milestone, becoming the eighth movie ever to top $1 billion in worldwide ticket sales. It joined such billion-dollar-plus smashes as “Avatar,” “Titanic,” “The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King” and “Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest.”

While that’s good news for Disney on its “Pirates” franchise, the studio lost mileage in the second weekend for its Pixar Animation tale “Cars 2,” which slipped from the No. 1 spot to second-place with $25.1 million domestically from Friday to Sunday.

That marked a steep 62 percent decline from the movie’s $66.1 million opening weekend, a sign that “Cars 2” may not go the usual distance for Pixar films, whose revenues typically are down a modest 30 to 40 percent in the second weekend.

“Cars 2” received unusually poor reviews

SACRAMENTO Republican lawmakers are claiming victory after the state budget passed last week without a single GOP vote because the plan did not include the Democrats’ top solution — a renewal of the higher income, sales and vehicle taxes approved two years ago.

But not every conservative is popping a bottle of California sparkling wine in celebration: While they held fast to their no-tax pledge, GOP lawmakers also lost a historic chance to secure their top priorities: scaling back state employee pensions; imposing a state spending cap; and making businessfriendly changes to California’s regulatory and environmental laws.

Republicans hope to pin the blame for massive spending cuts to social programs and higher education on Democrats, while claiming credit for holding the line on taxes.

Assembly Minority Leader Connie Conway, R-Tulare, stressed that the budget was “not ours.”

“They’re the ones that chose who got cut.

They are the ones that made their priorities, and so if people are suffering and hurting, they need to contact the people that did that to them,” Conway said this week during an event to celebrate the expiration of a 1 cent addition to the state sales tax and another hike to the vehicle tax. “Our agenda was to put the money back in the taxpayers’ pocket.”

The majority vote budget came after Gov. Jerry Brown, a Democrat, conceded defeat in his attempt to persuade a handful of Republican lawmakers to support his plan to ask voters to extend for up to five years temporary increases in the sales, income and vehicle taxes.

In exchange for their votes to put the measure on the ballot, Republicans had hoped to put their own reform proposals before voters. But after nearly six months of negotiations, the two sides could not reach a compromise.

Instead, the deal Brown reached with Democratic legislative leaders contained billions of dollars in cuts to social programs and public universities and colleges, programs Democrats hold dear. They are

’Transformers’ shape up with year’s best weekend DAVID GERMAIN AP Movie Writer

LOS ANGELES “Transformers” robots have lost some of their money-making power but delivered the biggest opening weekend domestically so far this year.

Distributor Paramount Pictures said Sunday that “Transformers: Dark of the Moon” took in $97.4 million domestically in its first weekend. That beat the $90.2 million debut of Disney’s “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides.”

But the domestic haul for the sci-fi sequel was down from the $109 million first weekend for 2009’s “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.”

Since opening Tuesday night, the new “Transformers” pulled in $162 million domestically through Sunday, a drop from $200.1 million for “Revenge of the Fallen” in its first five days.

Paramount estimates “Dark of the Moon” will hit $180.9 million domestically by the end of the long Fourth of July weekend.

“Dark of the Moon” added $210 million overseas, giving the movie a worldwide total of $372 million through Sunday.

The movie broke the three-day Fourth of July weekend record for domestic revenue previously held by 2004’s “SpiderMan 2” at $88.2 million. But factoring in today’s higher admission prices, “SpiderMan 2” sold more tickets than “Dark of the Moon.”

The movie also set a record for IMAX releases, delivering the large-screen format’s first-ever $20-million-plus opening globally. The company estimates that “Dark of the Moon” will reach $22.5 million at IMAX theaters worldwide by Monday.

The third “Transformers” flick reunites Shia LaBeouf and director Michael Bay, who gave the franchise the 3-D treatment for the first time as NASA’s 1960s moon landing becomes a pivotal event in the ongoing war between the giant shape-shifting Autobots and their evil counterparts, the Decepticons.

Jews reconsidering circumcision Editor:

An estimated one-third of the world’s men are circumcised, with a declining trend in the more developed, enlightened, and less religious countries.

While the campaign against such barbaric rituals has focused on the basic human right to be left intact, not enough emphasis has been put on the risks and negative effects of circumcision.

Department of Epidemiology Research and National Institute of Public Health in Denmark, where about 5 percent are circumcised, examined associations of male circumcision with a range of sexual measures in both sexes. Circumcised men reported more partners and were more likely to report frequent orgasm difficulties. Female partners of circumcised men reported a range of frequent sexual difficulties, notably orgasm difficulties, dyspareunia (i.e. painful intercourse) and a sense of incomplete sexual needs fulfillment.

Thorough examination of these matters in areas where male circumcision is more common is warranted.

The Jewish Circumcision Resource Center, an educational organization in Boston that is connected with the Circumcision Resource Center, has released a statement on circumcision intended for Jewish Americans. The statement, which is signed by a Statement Task Force of Jews who are actively involved in the issue, raises questions about Jewish circumcision and encourages Jews to engage in critical thinking about the practice.

“We want Jews to know that in this country and abroad, some Jews do not circumcise their sons.

Circumcision is a choice, and now that we know the serious harm caused by circumcision, there are strong reasons to forgo it,” said Ronald Goldman, Ph.D., executive director.

Dr. Goldman is the author of “Questioning Circumcision: A Jewish Perspective,” endorsed by several rabbis. He also suggests that Jews think about the ethics of causing significant pain and cutting off a natural, healthy body part that has important functions.

“There are psychological effects of circumcision, too. Some Jewish men are very dissatisfied, angry, or distressed about being circumcised,” said Dr. Goldman.

Some adult males have sued parents and/or doctors for what was done without their consent. Deaths, accidental amputation, excessive bleeding, and Jewish infants contracting tuberculosis, herpes and other diseases from mohels are all too common.

Physicians who continue to perform routine circumcision are not only harming infants but are also harming the integrity of the medical profession.

It is hard to accept that these physicians, many of whom have been circumcised themselves, are using their medical licenses to continue this contraindicated practice.

This tragedy is perpetuating itself and a clear violation of the Hippocratic Oath of not doing harm.

District steps deeper into racial bullying quagmire A RACIAL BULLYING INCIDENT AT SANTA

Monica High School in May became a major regional news story last week.

The racially-tinged event was finally reported to the Santa Monica Police Department, which has opened an investigation. And, the Los Angeles County Sheriff ’s Department was brought in to determine if the district broke any laws by its handling of the event.

Concerned parents and community members have expressed themselves loud and strong.

Public commentary including postings on smdp.com and other websites have called the episode “a disgrace” and sharply criticized the school district for the way they handled it as well as for not reporting it to law enforcement, as required.

Outrage about the incident itself and how its handing by the usual school cheerleaders has been, at best, subdued although Debbie Mulvaney, Samohi PTSA president, voiced her concern about the lack of communication at Thursday night’s school board meeting.

How about our Board of Education? As usual, they’re now trying to figure out how to shut the barn door after the cows have bolted. That’s after expressing their disappointment and disgust during a packed board session.

Moving quickly into damage control mode, incensed board members apologized for the incident and directed staff to look into curriculum about diversity, tolerance and sensitivity training, review policies on student behavior and provide support for those “hurt” by the event. The board also promised to reinstate the Intercultural District Advisory Committee.

The Board of Education also discussed a recommendation by its chair, Jose Escarce, to commission an independent review by a third party not connected to the police department, the school district or any member of the administration to get to the bottom of the many versions of the events that allegedly took place on May 4. He told the Daily Press (“Police investigate racial incident at Samohi,” June 28, page 1), “We need to sort out what happened and why it happened to try to prevent it in the future.”

Sounds as if the board doesn’t trust the SMPD or the L.A. County Sheriff to do a thorough, unbiased and accurate investigation. So, they may spend scarce school funds on an independent “entity” for their own review?

While the board mulls squandering precious resources on another redundant and costly report, they’re also considering floating another “emergency” parcel tax ballot measure. What chutzpah!

Council voted Tuesday night to let Saint John’s Health Center off the hook for building a much needed, 450-car, on-site parking garage. As everyone had been saying for weeks, “It’s a done deal.” Now, Saint John’s can continue to spread its parking and traffic misery all over the Mid-City neighborhood — with impunity.

For the record, the vote was 5-0 with Pam O’Connor, Terry O’Day, Gleam Davis, Bob Holbrook and Richard Bloom voting for the amendment to the hospital’s development agreement. “No” votes (if any) would have most likely come from Kevin McKeown and Bobby Shriver, who were absent.

I’m not going to rant and rehash about how this vote went down along the side of council people who’ve pocketed tens of thousands of dollars in campaign contributions from developers, their attorneys and other real estate interests.

I’m just hoping that voters who are most impacted by the council’s decision remember it come election day in 2012. So, I’ll save my “sold out the residents, again” tirade for then.

That of course includes our mayor, Richard Bloom, whose campaign for a state Assembly seat has been lagging because all the key endorsements have gone to his strongest opponent so far, and that is Torie Osborn. It would appear Bloom needs all the developer money he can get if he expects to buy enough ads to move ahead of front-runner Osborn.

If you’re sitting at home with your slippered feet up on a chair, reading this newspaper, sipping coffee and scarfing down waffles and scrambled eggs — shame on you.

Why aren’t you down on Main Street waving flags, showing your patriotism and watching (or participating in) this year’s Independence Day parade?

Sponsored by the Ocean Park Association neighborhood group, the all-community parade will start promptly at 9:30 a.m. on July 4 in front of the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium and amble its way down Main Street to the Venice border.

The grand marshals of this year’s parade themed “Fourth of July at the Beach” will be the Santa Monica Lifeguards led by Capt.

Angus Alexander, a 41-year veteran of the service. Bands and musical entertainment will be featured. I hope the musicians know that 1965 Fontella Bass classic “Rescue Me.” Marchers, old cars and floats from private enterprises, neighborhood organizations, nonprofits, police and fire departments and other civic and governmental organizations will take part. I’ll be on the Santa Monica Police Volunteers float.

This Week’s NEW TITLES

Warming ocean could melt ice faster than thought AP Science Writer

WASHINGTON Warming air from climate change isn’t the only thing that will speed ice melting near the poles — so will the warming water beneath the ice, a new study points out.

Increased melting of ice in Greenland and parts of Antarctica has been reported as a consequence of global warming, potentially raising sea levels. But little attention has been paid to the impact of warmer water beneath the ice.

Now, Jianjun Yin of the University of Arizona and colleagues report the warming water could mean polar ice melting faster than had been expected. Their report was published Sunday in the journal Nature Geoscience.

While melting floating ice won’t raise sea level, ice flowing into the sea from glaciers often reaches the bottom, and grounded ice melted by warm water around it can produce added water to the sea.

“Ocean warming is very important compared to atmospheric warming because

LAUREL, Mont. Teams of federal and state workers fanned out Sunday along Montana’s famed Yellowstone River to gauge the environmental damage from a ruptured Exxon Mobil pipeline that spewed tens of thousands of gallons of crude oil into the waterway.

The break near Billings, in south-central Montana, fouled the riverbank and forced municipalities and irrigation districts to close intakes.

There were reports of oil as far as 100 miles downstream near the town of Hysham. But an Exxon Mobil Corp. executive said shoreline damage appeared to be limited to the Yellowstone between Laurel and Billings, which includes about 20 miles of river.

Exxon Mobil Pipeline Co. President Gar y Pruessing said company observers flying over the river had seen “very little soiling” beyond Billings. He said the oil appeared to be evaporating and dissipating into the river as the

302 Pico Boulevard | Santa Monica, CA | (310) 392-8508 water has a much larger heat capacity than air,” Yin explained. “If you put an ice cube in a warm room, it will melt in several hours.

But if you put an ice cube in a cup of warm water, it will disappear in just minutes.”

In addition, Yin explained, if floating ice along the coastal areas melts it will allow the flow of glaciers to accelerate, bringing more ice into the seas.

“This mean that both Greenland and Antarctica are probably going to melt faster than the scientific community previously thought,” co-author Jonathan T. Overpeck said in a statement.

Overpeck, co-director of the University of Arizona’s Institute of the Environment, said: “This paper adds to the evidence that we could have sea level rise by the end of this century of around 1 meter and a good deal more in succeeding centuries.”

The subsurface ocean along the Greenland coast could warm as much as 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit (2 Celsius) by 2100, the researchers reported. The warming along the coast of Antarctica would be somewhat less, they calculated, at 0.9 degree F (0.5 C).

flooded Yellowstone carries it downstream.

A representative of the Montana Disaster and Emergency Services Division said the company’s claim was reasonable but had not been independently verified.

State officials on Saturday had reported a 25-mile long slick headed downstream toward the Yellowstone’s confluence with the Missouri River, just across the Montana border in North Dakota. An estimated 1,000 barrels, or 42,000 gallons, spilled Saturday before the flow from the damaged pipeline was stopped.

“My guess is that as fast as that water is moving, it’s probably dissipating pretty quick,” said DES public assistance officer Tim Thennis.

Exxon Mobil also revealed Sunday that the 12-inch pipeline had been temporarily shut down in May because of concerns over the rising waters on the Yellowstone.

Pruessing said the company decided to restart the line a day later after examining its safety record and deciding the risk of failure was low.

ONWARD: A brave new world known as ‘green chemistry’ seeks to reduce or eliminate the use or

HarwoodHamilton@gmail.com

generation of hazardous substances in the design, use and disposal of products.

Dawn of ‘green chemistry’ Dear EarthTalk So many chemicals in everyday products are harmful to our health and the environment. Why aren’t we developing safer alternatives?

Donna Langston, Asheville, NC

RESEARCHERS TODAY ARE BEGINNING TO

question the safety of many chemicals used in consumer products. Studies have linked Bisphenol A (BPA), flame retardants, phthalates and many other chemicals found in everyday products to a wide range of health problems, including cancer, learning and behavioral problems and reproductive illnesses.

Despite the federal government’s slowness in calling for it, nonprofit labs and forprofit companies alike have been busy developing safer alternatives to some of these harsher chemicals. The brave new world of “green chemistry,” — in which reducing or eliminating the use or generation of hazardous substances is top priority in the design, use and disposal of products — is leading to a rash of new, safer ingredients.

Companies looking to put a “BPA-free” sticker on their bottles, for instance, can make them instead with Eastman Tritan copolyester, a plastic alternative that doesn’t disrupt hormones as Nalgene and CamelBak do.

Phthalates — used to soften plastic toys — can be replaced with a product called Grindsted Soft-N-Safe, made from acetic acid and castor oil from the castor plant. Formaldehyde adhesives used to make plywood and other wood products can be replaced with soy-based resins, wood fibers and plastic-wood fibers.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) supports the effort through its sponsorship of the Presidential Green Chemistry Challenge Awards. The annual awards program recognizes and helps fund efforts to reduce the amount of hazardous

substances released into the environment or entering the waste stream, and efforts that reduce the public health hazards associated with the release of such substances-.

But while the EPA has the power to spur green chemistry, it is powerless to ban many dangerous chemicals in widespread use. The 1976 law that still governs use of many chemicals, the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), presumes that chemicals are innocent until proven guilty. TSCA has failed to require basic testing for the toxicity of some 62,000 chemicals grandfathered in when the law was first passed.

“Once thought to pose little likelihood of exposure, we now know many chemicals migrate from the materials and products in which they’re used — including furniture, plastics and food cans — into our bodies,” reports the Safer Chemicals, Healthy Families campaign. The campaign warns that just about every American carries hundreds of these chemicals in their bloodstreams.

Senator Frank Lautenberg (D-NJ) recently introduced a bill, the Safe Chemicals Act, aimed at overhauling the outdated TSCA. It would require safety testing of all existing chemicals and would promote so-called green chemistry and the development of safe alternatives to unsafe chemicals. The Act would provide the EPA with the authority it needs to protect public health, while enabling the marketplace to innovate safe products, reports Richard Denison of the Environmental Defense Fund. The bill’s sponsors say it expects to have widespread support on both sides of the partisan divide.

CP FROM PAGE 1 have the information they need to support their kids as they work to achieve the goal of getting into a four-year university.

People who have migrated to the United States from Spanish-speaking countries, like Perez herself, have different ideas about what the role of parents in a child’s education should be, she said.

In those countries, parents drop their kids off at the school and come by to pick them up at the end of the day, with little need to involve themselves in the details of testing and process.

It’s a different story in the United States, where you must be educated on the process early to make sure critical deadlines like practice SATs, testing, applications to schools and even financial aid don’t get passed over.

“Parents were never involved at school,” said Board of Education President Jose Escarce, whose own family migrated to Florida from Cuba. “When they come here, they don’t know how.”

Perez has made it her mission to educate and empower Spanish-speaking parents that otherwise can become wallflowers at purely English-speaking PTA meetings, disengaged by dint of the language barrier and the unfamiliar role they’re being asked to play.

She knows all too well what they’re going through.

In the late 1980s, Perez found herself a single mother of four living in the Pico Neighborhood with a very limited grasp of the English language.

Her children were, one by one, enrolling in the Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District, with the eldest daughter set to graduate in 1994, and she was seeing that although kids were going into the schools, few were coming out prepared for the fouryear education that their parents dreamed would come next.

Part of the problem was that despite the large population of Spanish speakers, the system wasn’t prepared to meet the needs of those students in a real way.

Mailers only went out in English, and parents — some of whom couldn’t read Spanish either — were missing critical information and watching their children fail at getting into the universities that they viewed as being the best way up in the world.

“I could not go to school, and I wanted my kids to be able to go,” Perez said. “They were pioneers (of the Edison Language Academy bilingual program). Then, they get to high school and I find out there’s no communication in Spanish, there were gangs and kids were dropping out.”

Despite her own struggles with the language, Perez became a one-woman whirlwind of change in the district.

Her first issue was simply access to information in Spanish, but she did not stop there.

She revitalized ELAC, a parent support group, and took on the administration to get information from the school out in both English and Spanish.

Perez, understanding from her own experience how difficult it was to crack into the system, began lining up speakers who could give presentations to parents on a host of critical issues, like how to tell if your child was experimenting with drugs, or what classes students should enroll in for graduation and college applications.

MONDAY, JULY 4, 2011

As the years passed, the monthly meetings of ELAC became better attended, boasting up to 80 parents. As they began to come, she learned of new issues that needed addressing, such as providing childcare to make sure parents could come to the meetings, or addressing concerns about communicating with teenagers being raised in a different culture.

Perez found that many parents didn’t know until too late that their children were failing classes, so she went to the administration and got additional progress reports sent home so parents could see when they needed to intervene in their child’s schooling.

More recently, she developed computer classes specifically for Spanish-speaking parents to make sure they knew how to access information about their students’ grades through the school’s computer tracking system, called Pinnacle.

Her biggest accomplishment to date, however, has been the annual Spanish-language college fair that Perez organizes every year in September, over a month before the same event takes place for the wider Samohi population.

Parents and children can go and speak to recruiters in their own language, pick up materials and get some of their initial questions answered before they go to the October event.

“She wants the parents to go to the October one so that they can be part of the system,” Diaz said. “Then they already know about all of the colleges, the UCs and Cal States. Then it’s not a new experience for them.”

For the passion, time and energy she puts into the gig, you’d think she was getting something out of it, but not only is Perez’ work all volunteer, she no longer has any children in the district to benefit from her labors.

“She does this as a single parent. She’s so focused and so warm,” said Lauri Crane, a member of the PTSA that acts as a liaison between the main parent group and ELAC. “Her youngest graduated a year ago. She’s doing all of this because she sees a need.”

The needs of the Spanish-speaking community of Santa Monica are still very real.

Although gang-involvement is no longer the problem it was in the mid-1990s when Perez’ first child began at Samohi, the school district as a whole received a failing grade from an independent organization for the achievement gap between white and minority students.

Parents still struggle to raise their children around multiple jobs, and communication — never easy between parents and teens — is made even harder by the language barrier.

In short, Perez’ work is never done.

“She’s courageous, humble and impressive,” said Rochelle Fanali, who works with Crane and Perez as a second PTSA liaison.

To date, there’s no one in the ELAC parent community prepared to take over the role that Perez has played for the last 17 years. Although Perez hopes that there is an end in sight, she plans to keep going as long as she’s needed.

At the last meeting, a happy parent came to Perez with a small potted plant, a token of her gratitude for the work Perez had done on her behalf.

“She said, ‘I hope you can stay here forever,’” Perez recalled. “I told her if you want me, I’ll be here for you.”

BOX OFFICE FROM PAGE 3 for Pixar, which until now has had a perfect track record, scoring critical and commercial successes with such gems as “Up,” “Ratatouille,” “Finding Nemo” and the “Toy Story” films.

Still, “Cars 2” has cruised to hit status, taking in $116 million domestically and $198.3 million worldwide through Sunday.

Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts had a modest opening for their back-to-school romance “Larry Crowne,” which came in at

No. 4 with $13 million domestically.

The Universal Studios release was directed and co-written by Hanks and features him as a downsized retail worker who enrolls in community college, where he falls for his jaded public-speaking teacher (Roberts).

The weekend’s other new wide release, 20th Century Fox’s European adventure “Monte Carlo,” opened a weak No. 5 with $7.6 million domestically. The movie stars Selena Gomez, Katie Cassidy and Leighton Meester as American travelers who get the princess treatment in Monaco after Gomez impersonates a European heiress.

WARNING FROM PAGE 1 bed with a stapled chest.

Elizabeth Taubman is less hesitant and quick in her response to the FDA’s image of the man.

“Perfect. That would scare the … out of anyone,” said the 58-year-old musician.

Scaring people straight is the purpose, said Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius.

“These labels are frank, powerful depictions of the health risks of smoking,” she said.

If the labels are real images of the risks of smoking, then the FDA’s mission with these labels fulfills its purpose for Taubman.

“It’s disturbing, extremely disturbing because if that’s what cigarettes do to you, then I would never be interested,” said Taubman.

Store manager Ryan Marker, 32, also believes they are terrifying, but isn’t sure about how effective they may be.

“I think scare tactics are always a problem,” he said. “These facts have always been around for a while, pictures are always effective … granted, but fear tactics, well, they don’t work with me. Personally, I’m horrified by them but I don’t smoke and I don’t know how others will turn around on that.”

Marker is uncertain about the future for this bold measure in the U.S., but other countries like Canada that require these similar labels on cigarette cartons know the pos-

BUDGET FROM PAGE 3 assuming billions more in additional tax revenue than was forecast in January, but also built in immediate cuts if that money fails to materialize.

Union leaders and Democrats hope that as the deep spending cuts take effect, Californians will feel the impact and public opinion will shift toward supporting tax increases they hope to put on the ballot in November 2012. Those could include higher taxes on the wealthy and taxes on companies that pump oil in California, but there are no specific proposals yet.

Republicans could be saved by a rebounding economy. The Democratic budget relies on $12 billion more in revenue.

If that is realized, voters might be reluctant to raise taxes, as public opinion polls suggest they are.

Yet any rollbacks to public employee pensions might now be left to Brown and his fellow Democrats in the state Legislature, leading to reforms that are far less sweeping than those sought by Republicans.

“We were prepared to go to the table and negotiate in good faith on a pension-reform package. We believed that a legislative package could be put out that addresses the voters concerns’ about spiking and things like that and closed loopholes ... a reasonable package,” said Dave Low, president of a coalition of unions called Californians for Retirement Security.

“The Republicans appeared to not want

itive impact it’s had. Canada required tobacco manufacturers to include graphic warning labels in 2000.

According to a Canadian Community Health Survey from 2009, smoking rates in Canada declined; the smoking rate for men was 23 percent compared with 28 percent in 2001. Among women, the rate was 18 percent, down from 24 percent in 2001.

A Santa Monica worker and Venice resident who used to live in Canada a few years ago attributes the Canadian decline in cigarette smoking to the labels.

Bob, a 35-year-old film editor who didn’t want to give his last name, said he was a smoker before living in Canada and quit during his time there. He credits the labels.

“I think they’re effective,” he said. “I used to smoke when I lived in Canada a few years ago and seeing that versus the warning labels we have, makes a difference.”

In recent years, more than 30 countries or jurisdictions have introduced labels similar to those created by the FDA. The World Health Organization said in a survey done in countries with graphic labels that a majority of smokers noticed the warnings and more than 25 percent said the warnings led them to consider quitting.

The FDA estimates the labels will cut the number of smokers by 213,000 in 2013, with smaller additional reductions through 2031. news@smdp.com

AP contributed to this report. to support any reasonable package. They missed out on their opportunity to have a voice in this process, and now they don’t.”

Gary Toebben, president of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce, also feels it was a missed opportunity. His group supported Brown’s proposal to extend the temporary tax hikes in exchange for structural reforms.

“The Republicans are calling it a victory because they believe that not extending the taxes, the higher tax rates, was good for the average Californian,” said Toebben, a Republican. “Our feeling is that the cuts that had to be made in order to balance the budget will long-term negatively impact K-12 education and higher education, and that’s a long-term investment.”

He said the state needs excellent schools and universities to be competitive.

So can Republicans count the budget as a win, loss or draw?

Thad Kousser, an assistant professor of political science at the University of California, San Diego, said the GOP successfully leveraged its only remaining legislative power by letting temporary tax increases expire on July 1.

“They were able to get nearly exactly the same kind of all-cuts budget they would’ve got if Meg Whitman had won the governor’s race,” he said, referring to Brown’s Republican opponent in the 2010 gubernatorial race. “In some ways, they got the best of both worlds. They got the policy they wanted, trimming government, without having to take the political heat for it.”

Defense Department is grooming a new type of commander to coordinate the military response to domestic disasters, hoping to save lives by avoiding some of the chaos that plagued the Hurricane Katrina rescue effort.

The officers, called dual-status commanders, would be able to lead both activeduty and National Guard troops — a power that requires special training and authority because of legal restrictions on the use of the armed forces on U.S. soil.

No one commander had that authority in the aftermath of Katrina, and military and civilian experts say the lack of coordination contributed to the nightmarish delays, duplications and gaps in the huge rescue effort.

“It was just like a solid wall was between the two entities,” said Georgia National Guard Col. Michael Scholes, who was part of the Katrina response.

Top Defense Department officials believe dual-status commanders are the key to reducing at least some of those failures.

“We’re going to be able to conduct disaster response operations on a large scale much more efficiently and effectively than we have in the past,” said Paul Stockton, assistant secretary of defense for homeland defense.

Dual-status commanders will provide a “unity of effort that is going to save lives on

a large scale,” Stockton said in an interview with The Associated Press.

Katrina hit the Gulf Coast in August 2005, killing more than 1,600 people and causing more than $40 billion in property damage.

An unprecedented 70,000 military personnel poured into the region to help, but active-duty and Guard troops often didn’t know what the other was doing, according to William Banks, a professor at the Syracuse University law school who studied the response.

Banks likened the confusion to the Keystone Kops of slapstick movies, with too many troops bumping heads at some assignments while other tasks went undone.

The evacuation of New Orleans’ Superdome was delayed by 24 hours because of a lack of coordination among the Louisiana National Guard, active-duty troops and state and federal officials, Banks wrote in a 2006 critique published in the Mississippi College Law Review.

By contrast, Scholes said, active-duty and Guard troops worked together seamlessly during the 2004 G8 Summit on Sea Island, Ga., where a dual-status commander oversaw the military presence. Scholes was part of that effort as well.

The dual-status concept is simple but the execution is not. The active-duty military is limited in what it can do at home. The National Guard in each state is in charge of helping civilian authorities during emergencies.

SHEPARD

■ In September (2006), according to sheriff's officials in Buffalo, N.Y., Thomas Montgomery, 47, murdered a 22-year-old colleague in an online love triangle involving a West Virginia woman, except that two of the three people involved did not exist. Ostensibly, a young Marine flirted with an 18year-old woman, but unknown to each other, the "Marine" was actually Montgomery, and the woman was actually her mother, 45, pretending to be her daughter.

The workplace colleague (not pretending to be anyone else) had struck up an online conversation with the "daughter," also, making Montgomery jealous enough to kill him. Thus, in the make-believe "triangle," the only real person is now dead.

■ Somehow, upscale restaurateurs believe that diners will soon willingly pay more for a beef dish if it comes with disclosure of the DNA of the actual cow being eaten, according to a May Associated Press report. "People want to know where their food is coming from," said one excited chef, lauding the knowledge to be gleaned from a calf's upbringing.

(A more practical beef-supply executive added that DNA can help identify the "multiple animals" whose parts were used in hunks of ground beef -- a 10pound package of which may include contributions from "hundreds" of different cows.)
