Sport sociologist Jay Coakley argues that individuals in "power and perfor mance" sports such as football have accepted and reaffirmed an ethic that defines what it means to be an athlete. One of the major components of this ethic is the "Pain Principle," the voluntary acceptance of risk to one's body is a sign of mental and physical toughness. To endure pain is to be courageous; to endure pain is to be a man. Sports pages are replete with ex amples of athletes conforming to this norm. New Orleans Saints running back Ricky Williams explained that "every Sunday, an NFL player plays through pain that would make the average human cry and stay home from work for a few days ....

In the midst of growing gloom about the U.S. economy, San Diego County residents say they are feeling increasing ly insecure about the local job market, although they harbor a glimmer of hope for a turn around in the next six months. In a survey conducted in July by The .San Diego Union Tribune, a third of respondents said they thought there was a good availability of jobs in the county, down from 52 percent in July 2000. Similarly, only 34 percent rat ed business conditions in the county as "good," compared with 61 percent the previous year. Economists say consumers' fears may be misplaced. Kelly Cunningham, with the

HEADLINE: PUC conflict case off to rocky start;
Judge says court lacks authority to boot commissioner
SOURCE: Chronicle Staff Writer
BYLINE: Todd Wallack
BODY: A San Francisco Superior Court judge yesterday rejected a watchdog group's request to oust a state utility commissioner for investing roughly $27,000 in a mobile-phone company his agency helps regulate.
In a preliminary ruling, Judge A. James Robertson ruled that state law does not give the court the authority to boot a California Public Utilities Commission member for purposely buying stock in a verboten firm . The Chronicle first reported a year ago that PUC Commissioner Henry Duque violated state law by buying stock in Nextel Communications, the nation's fifth-largest wireless firm.
Though state law bars commissioners from investing in regulated companies, Duque's attorneys argued that only the state Legislature has the power to remove commissioners. "The constitutional scheme could not be more clear," Duque's attorney wrote.
Duque's attorney also argues the statute is "strange and ambiguous," bluntly stating that the commissioner's office "shall become vacant" if he or she inherits stock and does not sell it right away, but not stating any penalty for deliberately investing in a forbidden firm.
In addition, Duque said he didn't realize the investment was a problem until a Chronicle reporter asked him about the conflict last year. Duque said he sold the stock shortly afterward.
But the Foundation for Taxpayer and Consumer Rights, the Santa Monica (Los Angeles County) group that filed suit to oust Duque, said it would be a mistake for the court to do nothing.
"The judicial branch has to make sure the laws are enforced," Executive Director Jamie Court said. "The only remedy is removal."
Both sides are slated to give their arguments in more detail during a hearing this morning in San Francisco.
Robert Fellmeth, director of the Center for Public Interest Law at the University of San Diego, says Duque's argument is "viable," but he believes previous court precedents support the Foundation.
The case also has the backing of Attorney General Bill Lockyer. In a strongly worded opinion last year, Lockyer said that Duque forfeited his right to remain in office when he bought 700 Nextel shares. Though the Federal Communications Commission mainly regulates cell phone firms, Nextel is registered with the state as a utility and has weighed in on several recent proceedings at the PUC.

But if Robertson winds up tossing the suit, it is unclear whether the Legislature will take up the issue. To force Duque from office, two-thirds of each house would have to vote to remove him .
"There haven't been any big lines or calls to my office saying we need to scalp the guy," said Bill Morrow, vice chair of the Senate Committee on Energy, Utilities and Communications.
Anthony Pescetti, vice chairman of the state Assembly Committee on Utilities and Commerce, said the Legislature should wait until the court case is finished before deciding to weigh in.
But with appeals, Fellmeth said it's possible the court case won't be finished until after Duque's term ends on Jan. 1, 2003 .
Pescetti said the delays are a problem. "Conflicts of interest need to be dealt with expeditiously," he said.E-mail Todd Wallack at twallack£sfchronicle.com.

And the Spirit might not increase capacity next season, either. Crow said he has budgeted about $700,000 for stadium improvements, and with that money he could either add seats or widen the field. He'll do the latter, though, because according to its contract with USO the Spirit is obligated to widen the field from its current 66 yards, about 5 to 7 yards under international norms. After the WUSA season ends this month, USO will use the stadium for its football and soccer teams through November.

It's been complicated. No more. The Spirit plays the Philadelphia ( Charge tonight at Villanova Stadium in Philadel phia, and with only one other game left in the regular season it has come to this: ''We lose," Juarez says, "and we're done." Wm or tie, and the fifth-place Spirit stays alive for the WUSA's fourth and final playoff spot San Diego concludes the 21-game regular season Sunday at uso:s Torero Stadium against Caroli na. But tonight is the taller order, particularly when you consider that a) the Spirit is ().2 against the Charge this year; b) the Charge is coming off a 5-1 win Monday; and c) the game is on the dreaded artificial turl. The Spirit lost its season opener 2-0 to the Charge at home, then played probably its worst game of the season July 13 in a 3-0 loss at Villanova Stadium. It's not all doom and gloom, though. The lineup Juarez is expected to use tonight contains five different starters from the first game and four different starters from the second. And the trick to playing on artificial turl is playing on it - more than once. "It's 10 times easier to play on it the second time around," Juarez says. Another plus: Phila delphia likely will be without German defender Doris Fitschen, who broke her wrist last week. Fitschen scored three of the Charge's five goals against the Spirit There are three teams :fighting for two playoff spots.
