The California Department of
Education released the annual
Standardized Testing and
Reporting results yesterday,
showing dips in scores for the rst
time since 2003.
Scores are based on California
Standards Tests given to students
in spring 2013.
San Mateo County scores also
dipped slightly but continued the
trend of remaining higher than the
state average. County education
ofcials contend it shows an over-
all positive trend here while
schools prep for new state curricu-
lum standards.
Schools in San Mateo County,
as throughout the state, are in a
transitional period as they make
the shift to the Common Core
State Standards and prepare for a
new generation of assessments,
Gary Waddell, deputy superintend-
ent of the San Mateo County
Ofce of Education, said in a press
release. While transitional times
are difcult and sometimes come
with what is commonly referred to
as an implementation dip, the
shift to more rigorous, interna-
tionally-benchmarked standards
that address students readiness for
college and career is a good thing
for our students.
The California Standards Tests,
the major component of the STAR
program, were given to about 4.7
million students in grades two
through 11 in 2013. Statewide,
51.2 percent of students posted a
score of procient and above in
mathematics, which was 0.3 of a
percentage point lower than last
year. In English-language arts,
School STAR scores tick down

Shakespeare in the Park is pre-
senting a free showing of
Macbeth, starting this weekend at
Sequoia High School in Redwood
City.
The play is part of San
Francisco Shakespeare Festivals
31st year of production.
Emily Jordan plays Lady
Macbeth and said she has done
about 30 Shakespeare plays in
total. This is her fth or sixth
play with the San Francisco
Shakespeare Festival. This is her
rst performance in Macbeth.
Its very slick, Jordan said.
Its been cut down to 100 min-
utes. Its very fast moving and
violent. Its pretty creepy and
scary, but we have had really good
reception so far. Its hopefully
family friendly, as well as being
scary. Its an absolute classic play
that cannot be seen too many
times.
How did Jordan feel about play-
ing the part?
Lady Macbeth is bad woman,
Jordan said. But its a really good
role.

Insanity plea
for doctor in
office arson
AP score invalidations
court date canceled
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A doctor who allegedly vandal-
ized and torched his San Carlos
electronic ciga-
rette business
multiple times
after a mental
breakdown in
December was
insane at the
time, according
to his defense
attorney.
Dr. Noah
Mark Minskoff, 34, of Palo Alto,
entered a plea yesterday of not
guilty by reason of insanity.
We got reports from his treat-
ing psychiatrists that raised the
possibility and along with some
other things like the crimes as
theyre alleged involving weird
behavior about his own property,
said defense attorney Geoff Carr of
what sparked the secondary not
guilty plea.
The new plea vacated his Sept. 3
jury trial and requires two court-
appointed doctors to complete
evaluations of his mental state at
the time of the Dec. 15 and 17 inci-
dents. Regardless of the doctors
ndings, he will rst be tried on
charges of arson, vandalism,
resisting arrest, possessing metal
knuckles and committing a new
offense while out of custody for the
earlier case. If convicted, he then
has a secondary trial on sanity.
Minskoff, who is also an ex-
Army ranger, is co-owner of
Thermo Essence Technologies in
San Carlos. Thermo Essence
Technologies is billed on its web-
site as providing the most
Students protest legal proceedings
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
The court hearing for the lawsuit
brought by the San Mateo Union
High School District over 641
invalidated Advanced Placement
test scores at Mills High School
was canceled yesterday due to con-
cerns by the College Board and
Educational Testing Service about
an unfair trial in California.
College Board and ETS requested
to move the case to federal court
over fear of bias against New York
corporations in a California court
of law.
We believe that is where the
case belongs, said Thomas
Ewing, director of external com-
munications for ETS. As we have
indicated throughout this case, our
primary concern is ensuring that
the impacted students are able to
retest as soon as possible and earn
valid AP exam scores that can be
reported to colleges and universi-
ties. Because of the ongoing
ERIK OEVERNDIEK/DAILY JOURNAL
Charles Zhu, left, led a crowd of about 25 students in a chant to protest the College Board and to get the word
out about their invalidated AP scores yesterday at the county courthouse in Redwood City.

Mr. South San
Francisco, Joe Fernekes, dies
Joe Fernekes, the man referred to as
Mr. South San Francisco for his com-
munity service efforts, died from a
heart attack the week of Aug. 9, 2008
in Las Vegas. He was 58.
Fernekes was in Las Vegas for a
Sierra Point Credit Union Board of
Directors meeting
with his wife Denise
and her parents, Roy
and Rose Bava, when
he suffered a heart
attack Tuesday night of that
week. He died at 8 a.m.
Wednesday of that week, according to
the Clark County Coroners Ofce.
He loved his community so much
that that the community named him
Mr. South San Francisco, said Mayor
Pedro Gonzalez.
Fernekes had 26 years of public
service when he decided to take a
break and focus on his family rather
than run for re-election in 2007.
At the time, he predicted it would
not be the end of his work in commu-
nity service just a hiatus.
County creates ethics committee
Elected county ofcials suspected of
wrongdoing or unbecoming conduct
can be investigated by a ve-member
ethics committee with the authority
to recommend their removal, accord-
ing to an ordinance unanimously
endorsed the week of Aug. 9, 2008 by
the Board of Supervisors.
The board created the independent
citizens review panel on Tuesday of
that week after revisiting an earlier
proposal by supervisors Jerry Hill
and Adrienne Tissier. At its July 22,
2008 meeting, the board cautiously
backed the idea but asked for
some ne-tuning of lan-
guage to avoid the panel
embarking on what
Supervisor Mark Church
characterized as a witch hunt
against ofcials.
Foster Citys 11-acre
site plans moving forward
The all-encompassing environmen-
tal study of the proposed Mirabella
project on Foster Citys 11-acre site
near City Hall was set to begin the
week of Aug. 9, 2008 with a public
meeting seeking comments.
The Environmental Impact Report
was required by state law to examine
large developments and their poten-
tial impact on the area around them. It
kicked off with a scoping meeting in
which the public could make com-
ments and ask questions to be includ-
ed in the nal report.
Pacic Retirement Services, PRS,
asked the city to change its legal
agreement with the city to allow for
94 more residential units and a
reduced ground lease term. PRS cited
nancing challenges, increased con-
struction costs, ination and decline
in real estate values in San Mateo
County as factors for its request to the
City Council.
China starts Olympics
spectacularly
China didnt just walk onto the
world stage. It soared over it.
At last playing its long-
sought role as Olympic host,
China opened the Summer
Games in spectacular fashion the
week of Aug. 9, 2008 with an extrava-
ganza of reworks and pageantry
dramatizing its ascendance as a glob-
al power.
Disasters, environmental problems
and human-rights disputes preceded
the games, and questions abounded
about how they would unfold. But for
an evening, at least for the 91,000
people packed into the new National
Stadium, it was an interlude of fervor
and magic capped by the spell-
binding sight of a skywalking, torch-
bearing gymnast oating around the
stadiums top rim before sending a
torrent of re upward to light the
Olympic ame.

Wednesday, July 31.
Agas leak at 1354 Burlingame Ave. yes-
terday around 4:30 a.m. shut down busi-
nesses along the main avenue until it was
capped at 8:41 a.m.
At around 4:37 a.m., Pacific Gas &
Electric heard from a third party who
apparently punctured a 4-inch diameter gas
main during construction on the street,
according to PG&E spokeswoman
Brittany Chord. PG&E crews arrived
around 5 a.m. to work on the leak and can-
vass the area.
PG&E and fire crews shut down a one-
block radius around the site, closing
Burlingame Avenue between El Camino
Real and Park Road, and Primrose Road
was closed between Donnelly Avenue and
City Hall Lane.
Central County Fire Chief Mark Ladas
said there was no fire on the scene, but that
the department sent two engines and a
truck. He said the fire department arrived at
around 5:47 a.m.
Administrative Police Sgt. Don Shepley
said contractors called police around 5:30
a.m.
PG&E is most important to get there
first, Shepley said. Theyre the people
who shut off the gas.
Chord said shes not sure what the cir-
cumstances of the puncture were. She said
main gas line markings were present.
The street is under construction as part
of the beautification of Burlingame
Streetscape redesign. Construction is set
to wrap up next summer.

A 26-year-old Half Moon Bay man
accused of having a sexual relationship
with a 13-year-old girl hed met at a dance
the previous year pleaded not guilty yester-
day to three counts of child molestation.
Gregorio Padilla-Luis did not waive his
right to a speedy prosecution and returns to
court Sept. 30 for a jury trial if the case
does not first resolve at an Aug. 26 confer-
ence.
Padilla-Luis was 25 when he reportedly
met the girl, then 12, in
July 2012 and they dated
for a year before the rela-
tionship was discovered
in June. The girl alleged-
ly snuck out of her home
at 1 a.m. June 24, wak-
ing her father with the
shutting door and send-
ing the family searching
for a half hour before
they found her partially
undressed in the back seat of Padilla-Luis
truck. He told the girls father that he loved
her, according to prosecutors.
Defense attorney Geoff Carr said his
client and the victims family are from dif-
ferent parts of Mexico and the situation is
more frankly a cultural thing because the
vast age difference is more acceptable in
that country. The girls family was not in
love with the idea of her dating someone
so much older but also believes his prose-
cution is going overboard, Carr said.
Padilla-Luis remains in custody on
$300,000 bail.

A 36-year-old man accused of
savagely beating a friend with a
large bicycle U-lock because the
man is bisexual will learn late
next month if he will stand trial
for several crimes including the
allegation the brutal assault was a
hate crime.

skull, jaw,
orbital bone
and rib. He has
pleaded not
guilty and will
be back in

for a prelimi-
nary hearing

Prosecutors contend Marquez-
Montiagudo and another friend
met up with the victim on July 20
at a San Mateo taqueria where the
victim shared his bisexuality.
After the trio left the business to
drink elsewhere, Marquez-
Montiagudo told the victim not to

want others to mistake him as
gay.
When the man refused to leave,
Marquez-Montiagudo grabbed the
lock from his bike and began beat-
ing his head and body, according
to the District Attorneys Ofce.
San Mateo police found the badly
injured man near the 700 block of

the attack.
Marquez-Montiagudo remains in

Stoyanov, of
Hi l l sborough,
was a patient at
San Mateo Medical Center when he
reportedly began the first floor
blaze just before 11 p.m. After
hospital staff extinguished the
small fire, Stoyanov reportedly
blocked himself in a hospital
room with a chair and hamper.
When a nurse kicked the door
open, she reported seeing the bed
and floor on fire and Stoyanov
walking toward her swinging a
knife. Responding ofcers needed
nearly two hours and a Taser to
negotiate and eventually appre-
hend him.
The re caused the evacuation of
29 rooms and chaos but little other
damage to the hospital.
Prosecutors say Stoyanov has
terminal cancer and was generally
frustrated with life but hospital
ofcials have not released any for-
mal explanation for his hospital-
ization or agitation that night.
Stoyanov remains free in the
custody of his friends as long as
they transport him to and form
medical appointments and he
maintains contact with the court
ve times a week.

BEAUMONT A rapidly
spreading wildre chewed through
a rugged Southern California
mountain range on Thursday,
destroying at least 10 homes,
threatening more than 500 other
residences and forcing some
1,500 people to ee.
Five people were injured, while
more than 1,000 reghters, 13
helicopters and six air tankers bat-
tled the ames as they pushed east-
ward along the San Jacinto
Mountains, a desert range 90
miles east of Los Angeles, Cal
Fire Riverside Chief John R.
Hawkins said.
Aman near the origin of the re
suffered serious burns, Hawkins
said. Four reghters were also
injured, including two who suf-
fered heat exhaustion. Ofcials did
not have details to release on the
other two.
At least 10 homes have been
destroyed and Hawkins said that
number would likely triple as
authorities make their way into
the charred areas to assess the
damage.
Hawkins said the wind-fed re
that sparked at 2:05 p.m.
Wednesday is one of the most
rapidly spreading, dangerous res
that Ive seen in his 50 years as a
reghter.
The fire was estimated at 17
square miles Thursday, with 10
percent containment, but it was
growing, causing concern that the
direction could change in the area,
which is known as a wind tunnel.
The conditions at the front
right now are very dangerous,
Hawkins said.

BART management,
unions resume contract talks
SAN FRANCISCO Contract negotia-
tions between Bay Area Rapid Transits
management and employee unions have
resumed as Gov. Jerry Brown awaits a report
on the labor dispute.
The two sides restarted talks Thursday but
remained tens of millions of dollars apart on
wages, pensions and medical benet s.
A board appointed by Brown is expected
to present a report to the governor by
Sunday night. Brown can then petition a

Man with rifle not found,
Skyline College lockdown lifted
San Bruno police searched the area around
Skyline College and the San Francisco Jail
looking for a man spotted holding a rie
Thursday afternoon but did not locate him,
police said.
The San Francisco Sheriffs Department
received a report of a man with a rie in the
area around the jail at 3:55 p.m., San Bruno
police said.
Around 4:20 p.m., authorities alerted
school personnel that the man might be
heading toward the campus, located at 3300
College Drive, spokeswoman Barbara
Christensen said. The community college is
adjacent to the jail facility.
A lieutenant at the San Mateo County
Ofce of Emergency Services said he received
an alert advising people on campus to stay
away from windows and lock all doors.
Police and sheriffs deputies searched the
area including on the campus but did not nd
the man with a rie, described as a white man
in his early 40s wearing blue jeans, a blue
plaid shirt and a baseball cap worn back-
wards, police said.
The lockdown was lifted by about 6:30
p.m. but the campus was closed for the night,
Christensen said. Yesterday was scheduled to
be the last night of summer courses and it was
unclear if those classes would be rescheduled.

WASHINGTON Americans who have a
job may take comfort in knowing that com-
panies are laying off fewer people than at
any time since before the Great Recession.
The government said Thursday that week-
ly applications for U.S. unemployment
benets have averaged 335,500 over the
past month. Thats the lowest level since
November 2007, which was one month
before the recession began.
But while most companies have stopped
cutting jobs, many remain reluctant to hire.
Thats bad news for the roughly 11.5 mil-
lion Americans who are unemployed and a
major reason the unemployment rate is still
so high four years after the recession of-
cially ended.
We have seen a disconnect between the
level of hiring and ring, said Bricklin
Dwyer, an economist at BNP Paribas.
Unemployment applications are a proxy
for layoffs. At the depths of the recession,
in March 2009, weekly claims surged to
670,000. They have fallen steadily ever
since and are now half that level.
The number of rst-time applications did
rise slightly last week, to a seasonally
adjusted 330,000. But thats just 5,000
higher than the 5 1/2-year low reached two
weeks ago.
Most economists say small shifts like
that are normal and applications are essen-
tially at a point where they may not fall
much further.
Readings below 300K are rare and rarely
sustained, Jonathan Basile, director of
U.S. economics at Credit Suisse, wrote in a
note to clients.
The drop in layoffs helps explain why
job growth has increased this year to an
average of 192,000 net jobs a month, even
while overall economic growth has stayed
sluggish.
Net job gains show the number of people
hired minus those who lose or quit their
jobs. And when companies cut fewer jobs,
it doesnt take many new hires to create a
high net gain.

OPINION 9
Heartfelt but wrong
Editor,
Supervisor Warren Slocums call to
the public to subsidize a rental unit
for the public is certainly well-inten-
tioned (Just One guest perspective
in the Aug. 6 edition of the Daily
Journal). Our hearts go out to those
who lost their homes and posses-
sions in the re.
Unfortunately, his request shows a
lack of understanding of what a rental
unit represents to the owner. It often
represents their job, their business
and their income. Rental units come
with signicant expense to the owner
and in this area the expenses often
exceeds the rent. I did not hear the
supervisor ask the banks to reduce the
mortgage payment or Pacic Gas and
Electric to reduce the utility costs for
any owner providing a subsidized
unit.
When one looks past the supervi-
sors plea, he is basically asking one
person or company to subsidize a re
victim. If subsidies should occur they
should be borne by the entire commu-
nity they should come out of the
general fund. If we are to be a compas-
sionate people, the entire county
should chip in and it is up to our
political leaders to decide what trade-
offs need occur to make the funds
available. Before he asks others to
reach into their wallets, he should
reach into his own. I did not see any-
thing in his guest perspective where
he, the other supervisors and all
county employees were taking an
indenite reduction in pay to help
subsidize the re victims.
It is always easier to ask others to
provide the economic solution to
your problems but it is seldom the
right thing to do.

Our post office
Editor,
The post ofce, its property and art-
work are our common wealth
(Burlingame Post Ofce ofcially on
the market in the Aug. 8 edition of
the Daily Journal). We, the people,
own the post ofce and benet great-
ly form the work of the postal work-
ers. There is a false claim that the
post ofce is no longer needed and
cannot pay its expenses. This is not
true.
Congress voted a mandate that the
U.S. Postal Service must fund pen-
sion benets for 75 years into the
future. It must fund the pension bene-
ts for people not born yet. The cost
of this means the cutting of services
and the opportunity for greedy vul-
tures to shut down the post ofce and
replace it with a for-prot corpora-
tion.
There is a national movement of
the rich people to privatize every-
thing owned by the people. They can
make massive prots by taking over
public schools, the postal service,
the prison system and public hospi-
tals. As our public services are taken
over by corporations, the services
deteriorate and the wages of workers
decline. We must not allow this to
happen. We need to protect our com-
mon wealth.
If our Burlingame main post ofce
has extra space, the building could be
shared with other public services,
maybe an unemployment ofce, or
some services for our retuning troops
suffering with PTSD or an agency to
help our homeless people survive in
these hard times. We dont need more
high-priced condos.

Letters to the editor
Contra Costa Times
E
arly August signals the
approach of a new school
year, another football season
and the stretch drive toward baseballs
playoffs. It is an exciting time. But
make no mistake, there also is danger
in the air, especially in Sacramento.
You see, this is that special time of
year when our representatives in
Sacramento begin to display their true
colors as well as utter contempt for
the public process.
The Legislature is set to adjourn for
the year on Sept. 13. Having done rel-
atively little all year there will now
be a urry of activity requiring legis-
lators to work late into the night.
Some of the activity is caused by high
volume or procrastination, but much
of it is by design. The chaos creates
cover to use a practice known as gut
and amend for nefarious purpose.
The concept is fairly simple. It
allows a bill to be called to the oor,
have its contents gutted and entirely
replaced with amendments likely hav-
ing nothing to do with the original
bill and then passed without true leg-
islative process.
The practice was originally
designed to make emergency xes to
unexpected matters that need immedi-
ate attention, but it is seldom used for
that purpose. Instead, it is the tool of
special interests who cant get what
they want in any kind of fair and
deliberative process in the light of
day, so they have their minions in the
Legislature employ the gut and
amend.
The bill that emerges is nearly
always a disaster. The list of last-
night messes is a long one, but the
poster child is probably the so-called
energy deregulation bill in the late
90s that was the breeding ground for
parts of the Enron scandal. There have
been dozens of others.
We now hear persistent chatter that
many such efforts may be on the hori-
zon. Everything from special-interest
pension legislation to more runs at
thwarting public records access have
been bandied about.
These rumors are disturbing, but we
are particularly bothered by efforts
that could severely damage Contra
Costa Countys landmark Industrial
Safety Ordinance.
There are those who would cynical-
ly use last years re at Richmonds
Chevron Renery to damage an ordi-
nance that for 10 years has been a
model for industrial operations by
amending it to essentially make it a
jobs program for union workers. The
Legislature should summarily reject
any such attempt.
Yes, there was a re at Chevron. No
ordinance is perfect and some safety
changes to it are necessary, but this
ordinance has dramatically changed
the culture of how industrial work is
done in the county because its focus
has always been on safety, safety,
safety. That is where it should stay.
Legislature should keep hands off safety Just how heavy is the
lifting in Sacramento?
N
o one could contest that there has been some
heavy lifting in Sacramento in the past year. The
push for Proposition 30 to help raise $6 billion a
year for the next four years was a mighty task, then there
was balancing the budget on time
while also reconguring the states
educational funding system all
while keeping most people happy. So
now that this years legislative ses-
sion is nearly over and legislators and
Gov. Jerry Brown prep for re-election
and pending leadership change in both
the state Senate and Assembly, is the
heavy lifting over? Depends on your
interpretation of heavy. Signicant
pension and tax reform? Not going to
happen right now. Shifts in patient
care, the minimum wage and realign-
ment? Probably. Changes to the California Environmental
Quality Act and a ballot proposal for a water bond? Maybe.
Though the state Senate is not back in session until next
week, the Assembly got busy this week. On the agenda were
changes to patient care as preparation for the federal Patient
Protection and Affordable Care Act set to begin rollout in
mere weeks. Legislation that would have expanded the scope
of practices for medical professionals who are not doctors
was heard in the Assembly Committee on Business,
Professions and Consumer Protection this week. One bill,
which could expand the duties of pharmacists passed the
committee and was referred to the Health Committee.
Another more controversial bill, which would have broad-
ened the medical ability of nurse practitioners and allow
them to work outside the supervision of a physician, was
defeated but reconsideration was granted. Another, which
would have broadened the medical ability of optometrists,
was pulled from the agenda and will be heard next week. The
rst one may come up again in a hearing next week, and the
second one will also likely come up again. The idea behind
the bills is to accommodate the need for more medical pro-
fessionals with the pending implementation of the
Affordable Care Act and expansion of Medi-Cal. Is this
progress in that there will be more access to care, just not
doctors? Or is an indication that our overall health care is
being diminished? I see the pull for broadening care, but
there is something to be said for a doctors care. This is a
slippery slope.
Also coming soon will be a serious discussion on raising
the states minimum wage from $8 an hour in small incre-
ments to $10 an hour by 2018. Originally, the proposal was
based on the rate of ination but that portion has been taken
out, according to the ofce of Assemblyman Luis A. Alejo,
D-Salinas, the bills author. This issue has a philosophical
split. Do entry level workers deserve more pay? And can
businesses still feeling the effects of the Great Recession
absorb an increase without laying off workers or not hiring
new ones? Hard to say. But raising the minimum wage in
small increments is a solid path and its good the ination
adjustment requirement was amended out. Thats what merit
raises are for. The bill will be heard in the Senate
Appropriations Committee Monday.
This will lead us to September and the end of the legisla-
tive session. And the budget cycle and the ramp up to the
June primary will be here before we know it. Amulti-billion
dollar water bond has been pushed off for years, and though
Brown is serious about changes to the Bay/Delta and how
water is delivered, popular opinion may not be ready for it
in 2014. With Brown up for re-election, there may be some
tweaks to realignment, according to Assemblyman Rich
Gordon, D-Menlo Park. Realignment was the shift of state
prisoners to local jails and there have been some reports
about increases in crime that may cause state ofcials to
rethink portions of that, Gordon said. As far as any changes
to the states tax structure? Thats not something to cam-
paign on, Gordon said.
So any signicant changes may come if and when Brown
is re-elected and likely only in the rst two years of his new
term, said Assemblyman Kevin Mullin, D-South San
Francisco. And that is the time period about which Mullin is
excited. There might be a discussion about creating a sales
tax on services but denitely a comprehensive conversation
on budget and tax reform, Mullin said. Part of that may
entail a lower threshold for local revenue measures and a
serious discussion on the states pension obligations, he
added.
[Brown] can act as a truth teller to public sector unions,
Mullin said, adding that the governor has the keen ability to
say no to people.
Gordon also sees the possibility for heavy lifting by
Brown after the November 2014 election.
Hes looking for legacy, Gordon said.

Big movers
By Matthew Craft
NEW YORK Miners and other
companies dealing in commodities
helped pull the stock market out of a
three-day slump on Thursday.
News that Chinas trade rebounded
last month signaled the end of a six-
month slowdown for the worlds
biggest buyer of raw materials. The
report drove prices up for copper and
other commodities, and that helped
lift Newmont Mining, Freeport-
McMoRan and other stocks in the
materials industry.
The one thing that stands out today
is the better news out of China, said
David Joy, the chief market strategist
at Ameriprise Financial. It comes as a
pleasant surprise.
The Standard & Poors 500 index
edged up 6.57 points, or 0.4 percent,
to 1,697.48.
The Dow Jones industrial average
rose 27.65 points, or 0.2 percent, to
15, 498. 32. The Nasdaq composite
gained 15.12 points, or 0.4 percent,
to 3,669.12.
With little other news to drive trad-
ing, the stock market had meandered
lower this week. The S&P 500 index
fell three days straight and remains
down 0.7 for the week. Its still up 19
percent this year.
Brad McMillan, chief investment
ofcer for Commonwealth Financial
Network in Waltham, Mass., said a
number of concerns have weighed on
the market this week. Comments from
Federal Reserve officials have con-
vinced many investors that the bank
will begin pulling back its support for
the economy in the coming months.
In an interview on CNBC after the
market closed, Richard Fisher, head of
the Feds Dallas branch, reafrmed his
view that its time to wind down the
banks stimulus effort.
At the same time, companies are
warning of slower sales and turning in
tepid second-quarter results.
McMillan said its starting to look
like corporate earnings havent kept
up with the stock markets strong
pace this year.
I think people are realizing that
stock values are getting disconnected
from earnings growth, McMillan
said. For the rally to continue, peo-
ple will have to pay more for earnings
that arent growing that much.
Investors are paying more for prof-
its. A year ago, the price-earnings
ratio for the S&P 500 was 13.4,
according to the data provider FactSet.
Now its 15.6, which is still near the
long-run average.
Among companies reporting earn-
ings, the maker of Oreo cookies,
Mondelez International, turned in bet-
ter results than Wall Street had expect-
ed late Wednesday. The company also
announced plans to spend another $5
billion buying its own stock.
Mondelez International gained $1.44,
or 5 percent, to $32.70.
Tesla Motors jumped 14 percent fol-
lowing news that the maker of electric
cars blew past Wall Streets prot fore-
casts for its most recent quarter.
Revenue soared thanks to stronger
sales of its Model S. Tesla gained
$19.25 to $153.48.
In economic news, the government
reported that the average number of
people who applied for unemploy-
ment benets over the past four weeks
dropped 6,250 to 335,500. Thats the
lowest level since November 2007, a
month before the Great Recession got
underway.
Gradual but steady gains for the U.S.
economy and corporate prots have
lifted the stock market to record terri-
tory this year. The S&P 500 index
closed at an all-time high of 1,709.67
on Friday.
In other Thursday trading, the better
economic news out of China sent cop-
per, widely used for electronics and to
wire buildings, up 10 cents, or 3 per-
cent, to $3.27 a pound. Gold rose
$24.60, or 2 percent, to $1,309.90 an
ounce.
The yield on the 10-year Treasury
note fell to 2.58 percent from 2.60
percent late Wednesday.
Surging mining stocks end Wall Street slump
I think people are realizing that stock
values are getting disconnected from earnings
growth. ... For the rally to continue, people will have
to pay more for earnings that arent growing that much.

Retailers see slow start
to back-to-school season
NEW YORK Shoppers are hold-
ing off on back-to-school shopping,
and those who delay long enough
might be rewarded with some steep
discounts from desperate retailers.
Revenue at stores open at least a
year an industry measure of a retail-
ers health rose 3.5 percent in July,
the slowest pace since March, accord-
ing to a tally of 11 retailers by the
International Council of Shopping
Centers.
The figure, which excludes drug-
stores, was below a 5.5 percent
increase in June.
Costco Wholesale Corp., typically
a strong performer, was among the
retailers reporting disappointing fig-
ures.
Many stores were already offering
discounts and other come-ons to get
shoppers to spend on the new ship-
ments of fall clothing that started
flowing in mid-July.
JPMorgan faces criminal
probe over mortgage bonds
NEW YORK The U.S. Justice
Department is investigating
JPMorgan Chase over mortgage-
backed investments the bank sold in
the run-up to the financial crisis.
The New York-based bank said in a
regulatory filing that it is responding
to investigations by the civil and
criminal divisions of the U.S.
Attorneys office for the Eastern
District of California. In May, the
civil division informed JPMorgan
that it had preliminarily concluded
that the bank had violated federal
securities laws in connection with
certain mortgage-backed investments
it sold from 2005 to 2007.
AJPMorgan spokeswoman declined
to comment.
The disclosure is just the latest in a
swirl of mortgage-related lawsuits and
investigations that have hammered
big U.S. banks in the aftermath of the
financial crisis.

NEW ERA IN OAKLAND: RAIDERS NEW QB MATT FLYNN READY FOR HIS DEBUT >> PAGE 12
By Doug Ferguson
PITTSFORD, N.Y. Adam Scott began the
nal major of the year with a tee shot deep
into the trees. He ended the opening round of
the PGA Championship by having to gouge
out of deep rough. It was the golf in between
that was some of the best he has ever played,
even for an Australian with a green jacket.
Showing that hes not satised as only
being a Masters champion, Scott ran off ve
straight birdies early in his round Thursday on
soft and vulnerable Oak Hill, and a 15-foot par
putt at the end gave him a 5-under 65 and a
share of the lead with Jim Furyk.
Probably the best run Ive ever had, Scott
said of his ve straight birdies. I just hit real-
ly nice shots and didnt leave myself too much
work. You have to take advantage of that if
youre feeling that. It was a dream start after
kind of a nervous rst couple of holes.
It felt like an easy start to so many others.
Oak Hill has such a strong reputation that it
has yielded only 10 scores under par over 72
holes in ve previous major championships.
The last time the PGAChampionship was held
on this Donald Ross design in 2003, there
were only 12 rounds under par on the rst day.
But with overnight rain, humid conditions
and a 71-minute delay for storms in the after-
noon, Thursday might be as easy as it gets.
Scott and Furyk had plenty of company, two
of 35 players who broke par.
Tiger Woods was not among them.
The worlds No. 1 player made only two
birdies despite playing in the still of the
morning, and he watched his round fall apart
with a bogey on par-5 fourth and a double
bogey on his nal hole when his op shot out
of a deep rough oated into a bunker. Woods
had a 71, not a bad start at Oak Hill, except on
this day.
The round realistically could have been
under par easily, Woods said.

SAN FRANCISCO Tim Lincecum
pitched another gem, allowing only one hit
over eight shutout innings and leading the
San Francisco Giants past the Milwaukee
Brewers 4-1 Thursday.
Lincecum, who threw his rst career no-
hitter on July 13 at San Diego, permitted
just a double to Juan Francisco leading off
the third inning.
Lincecum (6-11) struck out eight and
walked one in eight innings before getting
pulled for a pinch-hitter. The two-time NL
Cy Young Award winner had been 0-2 in
three starts since throw-
ing 148 pitches in his
no-hitter.
Brandon Belt hit a
three-run homer in the
rst inning off Donovan
Hand (0-4). Marco
Scutaro and Brandon
Crawford each added three
hits.
Khris Davis doubled
off reliever Sandy
Rosario in the ninth and scored on Jean
Seguras single against Sergio Romo, who
recorded the nal two outs for his 28th save.
San Francisco had lost four of its previous
ve games in the latest skid during a sum-
mer-long slide from World Series champi-
ons to last place in the NL West.
With a postcard-like day along the bay,
San Francisco showed some heart and hustle
at the start. And Lincecum provided the rest
in a rare reprieve from a frustration season.
Scutaro singled on the 11th pitch leading
off the rst and Crawford followed by diving
head-rst into second for a double. After
Pablo Sandoval ied out, Belt hit his 12th

BEVERLYHILLS Manny Pacquiao will
be coming off the longest layoff of his
incredible career when he steps back into
the ring in Macau in November.
Itll also be two years since the former
pound-for-pound champions last victory.
Theres no reason to worry about any of
those ominous signs, according to the
genial Filipino congressman. His bout with
Brandon Rios will just be the start of his
comeback, not a retirement party.
I want to prove that I
can still fight, and my
boxing career is not done
yet, Pacquiao said
Thursday in a ballroom
jam-packed with interna-
tional media at the
Beverly Hills Hotel.
Pacquiao (54-5-2, 38
KOs) was his usual
serene, joking self in his
last public appearance in
North America before heading back to the
Philippines, where hell start training camp
in October. Pacquiao is training with
Freddie Roach for only six weeks, not the
usual eight, because Roach doesnt want to
burn out his ghter.
And for the rst time in the 34-year-old
Pacquiaos career, thats a legitimate con-
cern. The eight-division champion is com-
ing off losses to Timothy Bradley and Juan
Manuel Marquez, followed by roughly 11
months of inactivity.
I have confidence in my ability,
Pacquiao said. If you really look at my last
ght, my conditioning, my killer instinct
was still there. Everything was happening
until that punch.
Indeed, while Pacquiaos loss to Bradley
has been widely lampooned as a poor judg-
ing decision, his one-punch knockout loss
to Marquez was much more persuasive.
Seeing Pacquiao facedown and motionless
on the Las Vegas canvas was sobering, but
Roach remains publicly condent Marquezs
devastating punch is a hazard of their pro-
fession.
Manny is a realist, Roach said. If you
dont think you can get knocked out in this

SanFrancisco cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha brings down a Denver ballcarrier during the 49ers 10-6 loss in their preseason opener.
By Janie McCauley
SAN FRANCISCO On this rst night of
the exhibition season, Denver displayed the
opportunistic defense the 49ers lived by the
last two years, something that carried San
Francisco back to the Super Bowl in
February, 18 years after capturing their fth
championship.
The NFC champion Niners? They looked
sloppy in all phases in 10-6 loss Thursday
night.
A Super Bowl preview in August? Hardly
looked that way.
Shaun Phillips scooped up D.J. Harpers
second-quarter fumble and returned it 9 yards
for the games lone touchdown. Mike Adams
added a timely interception as the Broncos
began anew following that stunning double-
overtime loss to the eventual Super Bowl
champion Baltimore Ravens back in
Januarys AFC divisional playoffs.
Executive John Elway has vowed the play-
off disappointment will fuel his team.
With the star quarterbacks on either side
Broncos veteran Peyton Manning and third-
year pro Colin Kaepernick playing all of
one series each, it was impossible to gauge
just how good their given offenses will be.

NAPA Ever since arriving in Oakland in April, Matt
Flynn has proven on the practice eld and in the meeting
rooms that he is the most capable candidate to start at quar-
terback for the Raiders.
Unless that changes in the exhibition games that start
Friday night at home against Dallas, Flynn will be under
center when the regular season begins Sept. 8 in
Indianapolis.
Flynn will start against the Cowboys and will likely play
the rst quarter. Terrelle Pryor will follow and could play the
bulk of the next two quarters before rook-
ies Matt McGloin and Tyler Wilson nish
up the preseason opener for Oakland.
But the job is Flynns to lose.
Hes gotten a better grasp of what
were trying to do offensively, coach
Dennis Allen said. I think hes more in
command of what were doing. I think
obviously, from the process through
OTAs, through minicamp and now into
training camp, hes really progressed
well. Itll be good to put him in live action and see what he
does against another opponent.
This is the second straight year Flynn started the presea-
son opener. His hold on the starting job didnt last long in
Seattle last summer. An elbow injury and the emergence of
Russell Wilson relegated Flynn to a backup role before the
end of the preseason and led to his eventual trade to Oakland
in April to replace Carson Palmer.
After also serving as Aaron Rodgers backup for four sea-
sons in Green Bay, Flynn knows this could be his last shot
to seize a starting job in the NFL.
The mindset as a competitor, as a professional athlete, as
a football player, the mindset always has to be to improve
yourself, better yourself on the eld, he said. Thats kind
of the approach Im taking.
Dallas has no questions about who will start at quarter-
back this season after giving Tony Romo a six-year, $108
million contract with $55 million guaranteed in the offsea-
son.
Romo did not play in the Hall of Fame game against
Miami last Sunday as he is working his way back from sur-
gery in April to remove a cyst in his back. But he is expect-
ed to play briey against the Raiders as he works in a game
for the rst time under new offensive coordinator Bill
Callahan.
More than anything you just want to have good execu-
tion, Romo said. You want to be able to do things. Youre
not game planning per se and having the stuff that youre
really going to attack certain coverages and certain teams a
certain way. So you get a little vanilla with what you may
call. Youd like to get into a rhythm, but I just think we need
to go out there and execute the right way and do things that
we feel good about as far as doing our assignments right and
getting through stuff quickly and just not having any men-
tal errors.
Romos most trusted receiver, Jason Witten, is hoping for
a better trip to Oakland this preseason than the one he had
last year. Witten sustained a slightly lacerated spleen
when he was hit by Rolando McClain after catching a pass
in the rst quarter.
Witten remained in the game before the injury was diag-
nosed and missed the rest of the preseason before coming
back for the season opener. Witten recovered to catch a
career-high 110 passes last season.
That was just a situation that happened when you play,
Witten said. I dont think you worry about that. Its just an
unfortunate situation. But weve run that play a lot of times
and never had that come up. I cant really think about it. It
was a long three weeks. I know that. But Im a better person,
a better player because of it for sure.
Allen also isnt overly concerned about injuries, knowing
he needs to see his young team play games against an oppo-
nent to get a proper handle on what he has on his overhauled
roster.
Injury-prone running back Darren McFadden will play in
the preseason as will veteran Charles Woodson. Among the
key injured players who could miss the game are projected
starting defensive linemen Lamarr Houston and Pat Sims,
rst-round pick cornerback D.J. Hayden and receiver Jacoby
Ford.
There are a lot of young guys that weve got to get an
evaluation on, and really, there are a lot of veteran players
that weve got to get a good feel for, Allen said. Weve got
a lot of change, a lot of turnover on this football team.
Weve never been to battle with a lot of these guys, so we
want to put them in situations and see how they respond. So
this, for our football team, this preseason, is a big deal as
far as the evaluation process.

As reaquire 2B Rosales from Rangers
OAKLAND, The Oakland Athletics have reacquired
inelder Adam Rosales in a waiver deal with the Texas
Rangers.
The As made the move Thursday. Texas and Oakland are in
a virtual tie for the AL West lead.
Rosales hit .193 with four home runs and eight RBIs in 50
games with Oakland before he was cut on July 31. Texas
claimed him last week and he spent three days with the
Rangers but didnt get into a game.
Texas designated Rosales for assignment on Monday.
The NCAAis getting out of the memorabilia business.
NCAAPresident Mark Emmert said Thursday it would stop
the practice immediately after reports this week that team
jerseys and other items linked to individual schools could be
found on its own website by searching for specic player
names.
I think seeing the NCAAsell those kinds of goods is a
mistake, Emmert said during a conference call with
reporters. Its not what the NCAA is about. So were not
going to be doing that any longer.
The NCAAis being sued by former players and a handful of
current college players in federal court over the use of athlete
images and likenesses. And just this past week, ESPN report-
ed that the NCAAis investigating Heisman Trophy-winner
Johnny Manziel for allegedly being paid to sign memora-
bilia, which if true could jeopardize eligibility as a violation
of NCAAamateurism rules.
Emmert said the commercial site wont be completely
removed because there is still a market for generic NCAA
apparel. He said the NCAAhad hired another company to run
the site, ShopNCAASports.com.
Mark Lewis, the NCAAs executive vice president for
championships and alliances, also released a statement,
saying university merchandise would not be offered, either.
In the coming days, the stores website will be shut down
temporarily and reopen in a few weeks as a marketplace for
NCAAchampionship merchandise only, Lewis said. After
becoming aware of issues with the site, we determined the

Americas Cup champion Oracle Team
USA forfeited its overall championships
from the rst two seasons of the Americas
Cup World Series on Thursday after it was
determined that its yachts were modied
without the permission of the Measurement
Committee.
The violation occurred when Americas
Cup teams were sailing 45-foot training
yachts, before they launched the 72-footers
that are being used in this
summers competition
on San Francisco Bay.
While seemingly
insignicant in the big
picture, the violations
are another smudge on an
already troubled regatta.
At the very least, its
an embarrassing mistake
by the powerhouse syn-
dicate, which is owned
by software billionaire Larry Ellison.
While it wont affect the Americas Cup tro-
phy itself, Oracle will turn in some trophies
won during four ACWS training regattas last
year and earlier this year.
Syndicate CEO Russell Coutts, a four-time
Americas Cup winner, called the violations
adding about ve pounds of extra ballast
to each boat a ridiculous mistake that
didnt affect the boats performance.
This is a serious issue for us, Coutts
said in a conference call with reporters. It
may have had little effect on the perform-
ance, but its breaking the rules and the
international jury may be obligated to con-
duct an investigation as to how it happened
and establish whether people intentionally
broke the rule.
Oracle turned itself in after discovering
the violations while preparing the AC45
catamarans for teams that will sail in the
inaugural Red Bull Youth Americas Cup
later this month.
Coutts said he couldnt disclose who made
the illegal modifications. The syndicate
said in a news release that they were made
by a small number of team members
involved in the AC45 circuit, without the
knowledge of management or the skippers,
and without having followed standard inter-
nal procedures.
Coutts said the international jury could
penalize Oracle Team USA, but doesnt
think thats likely.
Late last year, Oracle was found guilty of
spying on Italys Luna Rossa Challenge
while it trained in New Zealand. Besides a
small ne, Oracle was docked ve days of
testing its 72-foot catamaran.
Coutts said the extra ballast was put into
struts near the front of the gennaker poles
in Oracles two AC45s, and in a boat skip-
pered by British star Ben Ainslie, who is
sailing with Oracle in this Cup campaign.
It was in some ways a ridiculous mistake
because it really didnt affect the perform-
ance, Coutts said. It was a ridiculous mis-
take to take the boat out of compliance any-
way.
He said a quick analysis showed that the
change affected the boats trim by one-hun-
dredth of a degree, and actually had a nega-
tive impact on the performance of the
boat.
The fact is, we didnt comply with the
rules, Coutts said. It doesnt matter
whether it helps you or not. If it doesnt
comply with the rules, your boats out of
measurement and you have to withdraw.
The Oracle boat skippered by Jimmy
Spithill won the 2011-12 and 2012-13 sea-
son championships. Additionally, Oracles
two boats, including the one helmed by
Coutts, won several match racing and eet
racing championships at the regattas.
We certainly dont condone breaking
rules, Coutts said. And even though the
events gone and past, if you do break the
rules, and you make a mistake, then we may
have to take some disciplinary action.
Oracle Team USAwill begin defense of the
oldest trophy in international sports on
Sept. 7.
In the challenger trials, Luna Rossa holds
a 2-0 lead over Artemis Racing of Sweden in
the best-of-seven Louis Vuitton Cup semi-
nals. Race 3 is Friday. The winner advances
to face Emirates Team New Zealand. The
winner of that series moves on to face
Oracle in the 34th Americas Cup.
The regatta was marred by the death of
British Olympic medalist Andrew Bart
Simpson when Artemis rst 72-foot cata-
maran capsized on May 9. That led regatta
director Iain Murray to recommend 37 safe-
ty changes, two of which were challenged
by Team New Zealand and Luna Rossa. The
Italians were so incensed that they boy-
cotted the opening race of the Louis Vuitton
Cup round-robins, forcing Team New
Zealand to sail around the course alone to
collect the point.

Jim Furyk red a 5-under 65 and is tied with AdamScott for the rst-round lead at the PGA
Championship at Oak Hill in upstate New York.
Open in 2003 at Olympia Fields, has gone
nearly three years since his last win at the Tour
Championship to capture the FedEx Cup and
win PGATour player of the year. Still fresh are
the four close calls from a year ago, including
the U.S. Open.
He was as steady as Scott, rarely putting
himself in trouble until the end of the round.
Furyk missed the fairway to the right and had
to pitch out because of thick rough and trees
blocking his way to the green. That led to his
only bogey, but still his lowest rst-round
score in 19 appearances at the PGA
Championship.
Usually disappointed with ending the day
on a bogey, Furyk said. But you know, 65,
PGA, is not so bad.
David Hearn of Canada, an alternate until a
week ago, had a 66 in the morning. Also at 66
was Lee Westwood, who had his best score
ever in the PGAand offered evidence that there
was no hangover from losing a 54-hole lead in
the British Open last month.
There were no record scores at Oak Hill
despite the soft conditions, just a lot of low
rounds.
If you dont hit it in the fairways, then you
wont score well, Westwood said. These
guys are good. There are a lot of good players
playing in the tournament. Somebody is
going to hit it straight, and somebody is
going to shoot a good score.
Scott certainly didnt start out that way. He
had to pitch out from the trees on No. 1, but
managed to get up-and-down from about 85
yards in front of the green, and after two more
pars, he began his big run of birdies.

The move overshadowed a news conference
that was intended to update reporters about
possible changes to the NCAAs governance
structure. Members of the board of directors
and executive had a preliminary discussion on
potential changes, though no vote is expected
until next August.
Instead, the hot topics became Manziel,
NCAArules and the website asco.
Board chairman Nathan Hatch was asked
whether some of the NCAA rules regarding
payments to college athletes should be modi-
ed.
I stand by the NCAAs commitment to ama-
teurism, and I believe the way weve done that
is the correct way, the Wake Forest president
said. So I believe the rules we have, we agree
with.
The NCAAs new enforcement chief,
Jonathan Duncan, later told The Associated
Press he does not anticipate modications to
those rules, either.
Based on my experience before coming to
the national ofce, I know that lots of member
groups, cabinets and committees have looked
over the years and that lots of changes have
been proposed and have not been approved,
he said. Its up to the membership and if they
change the rules, the enforcement staff will
follow their lead.
And, of course, back to more memorabilia
questions.
Were exiting it as soon as we feasibly
can, Emmert said. Again, I think it was inap-
propriate for us to be in that business, and we
wont be in the future.
NCAA
home run of the season.
The Giants hadnt hit a home run at AT&T
Park since Buster Poseys long ball on July
20.
In the second, Scutaro scored on
Crawfords two-out single. Hand, who
allowed seven hits and four walks in ve
innings, had not given up more than three
runs in any of his previous six starts this
season.
Brewers center elder Carlos Gomez had a
pair of sensational catches in center eld.
He ran to his right, made a dive and tumbled
twice on the ground afterward on Belts
looping liner in the fourth. Gomez also ran
down Sandovals fly near the 421-foot
marker in right-center to end the second.
One big swing from Belt was all Lincecum
needed.
The lanky right-hander, who walked four
in his no-hitter against the Padres,
mightve been even more efcient against
Milwaukee. He only walked one and tossed
108 pitches before getting lifted for pinch-
hitter Andres Torres in the bottom of the
eighth.
Lincecum faced just three hitters in six of
his eight innings. Francisco hit a liner that
skipped to the wall in right.
Lincecum even got Gomez to lose his hel-
met striking out on a breaking ball in the
seventh, and he received a standing ovation
from the announced sellout crowd of 41,219
after pitching the eighth.

sport, you picked the wrong sport. He
knows it can happen. It happened twice
before I met Manny Pacquiao. He showed me
those tapes. He wasnt embarrassed by it.
He knows its part of life in boxing. Thats
why he deals with it so well. It doesnt both-
er him.
Although Pacquiao is unshakably con-
dent, Roach acknowledges hell have to dis-
cuss retirement with Pacquiao if the brawl-
ing Rios (31-1-1, 22 KOs) pulls an upset at
the Venetian casino, the worlds newest
boxing hotbed after a series of ght cards in
its arena this year.
Ill even go so far as to say if I see aws
in training camp, Ill tell Manny, Its
over, Roach said. The thing is, until we
get there, we really dont know. We cant
really guess. If he doesnt respond to train-
ing camp, my No. 1 priority is to take care
of my ghter, no matter what.
Pacquiao also will train without longtime
strength coach Alex Ariza, who was recent-
ly red by Roach. Despite the upheaval in
camp and his typically chaotic personal
life, Pacquiao seems condent he can focus
on the ght long enough to take care of
Rios and his ferocious, defense-decient
style.
I didnt choose an easy opponent,
Pacquiao said. I didnt choose a tuneup
ght. I chose to ght a good ghter. ... I
love to ght. I love to throw a lot of punch-
es. I have to make sure Im in 100 percent
condition and the killer instinct is still
there.
Rios dispensed his usual happy-go-lucky,
profane personality to the Beverly Hills
gathering, jokingly holding up his name-
plate while posing for photos with Pacquiao
and Zou Shiming, the Chinese Olympic
gold medalist who will ght on the under-
card. While Rios is among the sports most
likable guys, Roach is more interested in
the challengers crowd-pleasing style.
He comes to fight. He wants to
exchange, Roach said. I think its a ght
that hell make us look great in. Hes the
perfect style for Manny Pacquiao.
After crossing the globe on a promotion-
al tour that included stops in China,
Singapore and the U.S., Rios is happy to be
home. Pacquiao will check in at Roachs
Wild Card gym only briey before heading
home, where hell get to work on revitaliz-
ing his career.
Its really important to win this ght,
Pacquiao said. Not just win, but to win con-
vincingly, either knockout or decision, as
long as the fans are satised.
FIGHT
This truly was a typical preseason opener
for what many consider the best two teams
in the NFL; San Francisco and Denver are 1-
2 in the AP Pro32 NFL power rankings.
Now, everybody realizes that if they were
to play a meaningful matchup it could really
be something.
Kaepernick completed all four of his pass-
es, two to Anquan Boldin in his 49ers debut
after being acquired in a trade from the
Ravens. Manning was 2 for 4 for 13 yards.
The 49ers kicked off their Farewell to
Candlestick season before they move into
their new stadium next to team headquarters
in Santa Clara in 2014. Fittingly for nostal-
gias sake, sprinkled among those suddenly
top-selling No. 7 Kaepernick jerseys were
some tributes to the old-school favorites:
Joe Montana, Jerry Rice, Ronnie Lott.
New 49ers kicker Phil Dawson made eld
goals of 32 and 38 yards, but missed wide
left on the nal play before halftime with
the flags whipping on a cool summer
evening by the bay.
Kaepernick begins his rst full season as
the starter after taking the job from Alex
Smith last November and leading San
Francisco to the Super Bowl. And the Niners
head to Kansas City for next Fridays game
against the Chiefs new play caller,
Smith.
A.J. Jenkins, one of Kaepernicks key tar-
gets, had a forgettable preseason debut.
Jenkins faces high expectations after the
rst-round pick went without a catch in his
highly scrutinized rookie season. The 49ers
are depending on him to produce while top
2012 wideout Michael Crabtree spends much
of the season recovering from surgery on his
torn Achilles tendon, and Mario
Manningham works back from knee surgery.
Only two plays after Phillips scored mid-
way through the second quarter, Jenkins
caught an 11-yard pass from Scott Tolzien
and fumbled. Denvers Rahim Moore recov-
ered.
A pass by Colt McCoy intended for
Jenkins late in the rst half was well over-
thrown and strong safety Adams easily
grabbed the interception against his former
team.
49ers rst-round draft pick Eric Reid had
six tackles in his professional debut.
Broncos backup quarterback Brock
Osweiler completed his rst six passes and
went 13 for 18 for 105 yards.

Howard says Everton
starting spot not in question
LONDON Tim Howard has no
doubts. Hes Evertons No. 1 goal-
keeper, and he doesnt feel threat-
ened by the arrival of Joel Robles.
Robles was one of new manager
Roberto Martinezs rst signings
at Goodison Park, with the pair
reunited after winning the FACup
with Wigan in May.
Howard, though, has three years
remaining on his Everton contract
and expressed condence that his
starting spot wont be taken by
Robles. The 23-year-old Spaniard
joined the club from Atletico
Madrid after spending part of last
season on loan at Wigan.
I dont think thats ever been in
question. ... I have never asked for
assurances (about my status),
Howard said Thursday during a
conference call launching NBCs
Premier League coverage in the
United States.
I know where I stand. I think
my performances over the last 450
games have merited my place
where I am right now. Unless I
have been asleep for a few months
and forgotten something I think
all is pretty well in my camp.
The 34-year-old U.S. interna-
tional described preseason train-
ing as intense under Martinez,
with fatigue setting in during
exhibition games.
That, though, is to be expected
and the team is now focused on the
Aug. 17 league opener at Norwich
Martinezs first competitive
game since lling the void left by
David Moyes going to Manchester
United.

New Nissan Sentra looks like Altima
By Ann M. Job
Restyled for a new, upscale look,
Nissans Sentra small sedan for 2013 is
more fuel efficient than ever and so roomy
inside the government no longer ranks it
as a compact sedan.
Some people even confuse the new, mid-
size Sentra with the larger, 2013 Nissan
Altima because from the outside, the
Sentra looks a lot like the more-expensive
Altima.
In fact, though the 15.2-foot-long
Sentra still handles like a small car and is
9.4 inches shorter in overall length than
the Altima, the Sentra has more rear-seat
legroom a surprising 37.4 inches. This
is more than the back-seat legroom of the
typical small-car competitors such as the
2013 Honda Civic and 2013 Toyot a
Corolla.
Add in affordable pricing and the
Sentras top 34 miles-per-gallon federal
government fuel economy rating for com-
bined city/highway travel, and its easy to
see why the Sentra is a noteworthy new
model.
And dont think that 34 mpg is an unat-
tainable figure. The test 2013 Sentra SL
averaged 34 mpg, even though the car was
driven in normal fashion and the travel
included a highway in the mountains and
foothill roads. The fuel economy was
enough to give the test car an impressive
range of 440 miles on a single tank of reg-
ular unleaded.
Starting manufacturers suggested retail
The 2013 Sentra earned four out of ve stars in overall crash testing by the federal government.The side crash test was good for the top, ve
stars, but the overall rating was pulled down by a four-out-of-ve-stars rating in frontal testing. See SENTRA, Page 17

LOS ANGELES Alawyer for plaintiffs
in a wrongful death lawsuit against Toyota
Motor Corp. told a jury on Thursday he will
ask for $20 million in damages for the fam-
ily of a woman who died when her Camry
suddenly accelerated and crashed despite her
efforts to stop.
The case involving the 2009 death of
Noriko Uno is the rst involving the issue
to go to trial in state court.
Toyota recalled millions of vehicles
worldwide after drivers reported that some
of its vehicles were surging unexpectedly.
The company agreed to pay $1 billion in
other suits.
In his opening statement, attorney Garo
Mardirossian said Toyota was at fault for the
death of Uno because it failed to install an
override safety system in the 2006 model
she was driving.
Toyota made a decision to leave out the
brake override system in the 2006 Camry,
he said.
Witnesses will testify that they saw
Unos car traveling at speeds up to 100 mph
as it careened the wrong way down a one-
way street, he said.
Toyota issued a statement at the court-
room saying the 2006 Camry had a state of
the art braking system and had earned top
safety and quality honors. It said an override
system would not have prevented the crash.
In his opening statement, Toyota attor-
ney Vincent Galvin told jurors the accident
was not caused by any problem with the
vehicle and instead was the result of driver
error. He said Uno had health problems
including diabetes that may have hampered
her judgment after she was hit by another
driver at an intersection before the crash.
She became hypersensitive to what was
going on and took off at 80 mph, Galvin
said.
He contended that Uno never hit the
brake, but he did not address the question of
whether she tried to use the hand brake.
In his opening statement, Mardirossian
showed photos of the hand brake in the
on position.
The 2009 accident occurred in Upland,
east of Los Angeles, when another driver
went through a stop sign and broadsided
Unos car at slow speed. Mardirossian said
the Camry spun around and started accelerat-
ing.
Uno was in control of the car and managed
to avoid other drivers, including a woman
with six children in her vehicle, the lawyer
said, but she was unable to stop before the
car hit a tree and light pole, killing her.
The trial is expected to last two months.

at $17,040 and with automatic starts at $18,990. The
Civic is powered by a 140-horsepower four cylinder,
while the Corolla has a 132-horsepower, four-cylinder
engine.
The new Sentra is upscale feeling, inside and out.
Even light-emitting diodes accent headlights and tail-
lamps on all 2013 Sentras, and chrome-look door handles
are standard on all models.
The dashboard has soft-touch plastic with a pleasant
appearance, and the center armrest between front seats in
the test Sentra SL was cushioned.
While leather-trimmed seats are available, the premi-
um, gray-colored, cloth-covered seats in the SL tester
provided good support and were cooler to the skin on hot
summer days.
The optional navigation package, which added voice
recognition control, hands-free text messaging, a
rearview monitor and colorful, 5.8-inch display and touch
screen, was only $650. This is an amazing price com-
pared with other carmakers pricing.
The Sentras electroluminescent gauges also were a
nice, upscale touch.
Nissan didnt scrimp on the front-seat legroom to add
space to the back seat. Front-seat passengers get a full
42.5 inches of legroom, and the front seat tracks are long
to accommodate many sizes of passengers.
The 15.1-cubic-foot trunk also is generously sized and
is 18 percent bigger than the Corollas trunk.
All this comes from a 2.3-inch longer car than last
years Sentra. The 2013 Sentra is a bit shorter in height
than last years model, but at 58.9 inches is still taller
than a 2013 Civic sedan and a 2013 Corolla.
In fact, the Sentras front headroom of 39.4 inches is
better than the Corollas and Civic sedans .
Intriguingly, while the Sentra has grown a bit larger,
its some 150 pounds lighter. The reduced weight, plus
improved aerodynamics, help account for the fuel econo-
my.
So does the smaller-displacement engine and the CVT,
which in the Sentra test car wasnt as onerous and fun-sap-
ping as some earlier Nissan CVTs have been.
The engine now is a 1.8-liter, double overhead cam four
cylinder that develops 10 less horsepower than last
years 2-liter unit.
Still, the test Sentra SL felt light, yet solid, and had
decent throttle response.
While not a sporty car, the Sentra moved well with traf-
fic. It seemed that Nissan engineers have found the right
combination to deliver adequate power and better-than-
expected, real-world fuel economy.
Certainly, with the eco button activated just a couple
times during the test drive to conserve fuel and the car
driven without a focus on gas mileage, the range was
impressive.
The suspension softened most road bumps for a com-
fortable ride, but the Sentra tester still handled mountain
curves at decent speed with poise.
The Sentra doesnt have the kind of sound deadening
and noise isolation thats found in more upscale cars, and
sounds from nearby trucks and engine droning came
through to the passenger compartment.
The 2013 Sentra earned four out of five stars in overall
crash testing by the federal government. The side crash
test was good for the top, five stars, but the overall rating
was pulled down by a four-out-of-five-stars rating in
frontal testing.
In contrast, the 2013 Civic earned an overall five out of
five stars.
The 2013 Sentra has been involved in two safety
recalls.
In one, Sentras were recalled because a sensor that
detected whether a passenger was sitting in the front pas-
senger seat had not been built to specification and might
suppress deployment of an air bag.
The other safety recall involved Sentra gas tanks that
might not have been fully sealed, resulting in potential
fuel leakage when the tank is full. This might cause a fire.
SENTRA
There is no doubt about it. When it
comes to Outside Lands, San Franciscos
premiere music, art, food and wine festi-
val, the ante is always high.
Having guratively tore the roof off
Golden Gate Park last summer with the
likes of Neil Young, the Foo Fighters
and Metallica, organizers know the only
way to properly and successfully keep
Outside Lands at the level theyve estab-
lished throughout its now six-year run in
the city is to continuously raise the bar
every year. So to do that in 2013, they
reached for rock n roll royalty.
Sir Paul McCartney headlines an eclec-
tic new lineup of music acts that are the
highlight of three days worth of music,
art and always sensational cuisine in San
Francisco starting Friday Aug. 9 and cul-
minating Sunday.
But as is accustomed with Outside

Cracking a not-so-perfect world
Action, strong directing
provide Elysium power
By Jerry Lee
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
In Elysium, its the year 2154, and the 1
percenters have come up with a foolproof
solution in separating themselves from the
riffraff. Money and blue bloodlines are no
longer the only gaps separating them and
the rest of us.
Elysium is the name of a giant space sta-
tion where the super duper, Id-use-hundred-
dollar-bills-to-light-my-Weber-grill-if-I-
actually-did something-as-plebeian-as-barbe-
cue rich live. Everyone else remains on a pollut-
ed, overcrowded Earth reminiscent of the worst that
third world slums have to offer. Imagine a dismal
mashup of slums in India, Brazil, Africa and Detroit
(Sorry, Motown, bad joke).
On Elysium, life is all champagne, manicured
lawns and idyllic weather. Folks can change hair
color or cure cancer instantly using advanced tech-
nology. Down on earth, not so much. The majority of
humans are no longer individuals, but rather treated as
a necessary evil needed to make life good for those on
Elysium.
To add insult to injury, they wont even let a few of the
Earthlings come over to do all the jobs the residents wouldnt
do (e.g. serve food, pick fruit, write movie reviews). Those
jobs have been droidsourced by robots. The only way onto
Elysium is to sneak in.

SEEKING CONTINUITY WITH THE
PAST: PASADENAS NORTON SIMON
MUSEUM REFLECTS ONE COLLEC-
TORS PERSONAL PASSION FOR
ART. Over a 30-year period, 20th-century
industrialist Norton Simon (19071993)
amassed European art from the Renaissance
to the 20th century, and South and
Southeast Asian art spanning 2,000 years.
Among the most celebrated works he
assembled are a bronze sculptures Buddha
Shakyamuni, c. 550; Madonna and Child
with Book, c. 1502-03, by Raphael;
Portrait of a Boy, c. 1655-60, by
Rembrandt van Rijn; Mulberry Tree, 1889,
by Vincent van Gogh; Little Dancer Aged
Fourteen, 1878-81, by Edgar Degas; and
Woman with a Book, 1932, by Pablo
Picasso. These are among the 12,000 items
that now comprise the collection of the
Norton Simon Museum in the urbane, art-
loving city of Pasadena.
WHO WAS NORTON SIMON? Norton
Simon, born in 1907, graduated from
Lowell High School in San Francisco at the
age of 16. In 1925, at his fathers insis-
tence, Simon enrolled in the University of
California at Berkeley, but left his pre-law
studies within six weeks. In 1929, he
invested $7,000 in a oundering juice bot-
tling company, which he turned into Hunt
Foods, Inc., eventually building a multina-
tional corporation that included McCalls
Publishing, Canada Dry Corporation, Max
Factor cosmetics and Avis Car Rental. His
commitment to art was lifelong and heart-
felt. In 1974, when Simon formed the muse-
um that now bears his name, he said, I am
not essentially a religious person, but my
feeling about a museum is that it can serve
as a substitute for a house of worship. It is a
place to respect mans creativity and to
sense continuity with the past. It is a place
to give us a feeling of the dignity of man
and to help us to strive towards our own cre-
ativity and fulllment.
THE BUILDING AND THE
GROUNDS. The 1969 structure, which ini-
tially housed the Pasadena Art Museum, was
designed by Pasadena architects Thornton
Ladd and John Kelsey. The curved exterior
walls are covered with earth-toned tiles by
noted Sausalito ceramicist Edith Heath. The
museums 79,000-square-foot garden, with
more than 180 species of trees, shrubs,
vines, ground cover and perennials, has a
meandering pond and a small waterfall.
Sculptures are integrated into the landscape
and monumental bronzes by Auguste Rodin
are displayed in the Museums front garden.
THE COLLECTION. The ltered natural
light of the galleries creates an inviting set-
ting for works by Claude Monet, Pierre-
Auguste Renoir and Edgar Degas, Vincent
van Gogh, Paul Czanne and Paul Gauguin.
Paintings by Jean-Auguste-Dominique
Ingres and Francisco de Goya hang near
Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot, Gustave
Courbet and douard Manet. Modern and
Contemporary Artists Pablo Picasso,
Georges Braque, Henri Matisse and Diego
Rivera are represented, as are Pop Art and
Minimal Artists Roy Lichtenstein and Andy
Warhol. Californian artists from the 1950s
through the 1970s include Sam Francis,
Richard Diebenkorn and Edward Ruscha.
Works by major sculptors of the early 20th
century, including Aristide Maillol,
Constantin Brancusi, Henry Moore and
Isamu Noguchi, are in the galleries and the
gardens.
ADVICE FOR FIRST TIME VISI-
TORS. Museum Educator Caroline Jones,
who regularly takes groups through the gal-
leries, said, I would tell a new visitor that
its a museum with a collection that runs the
gamut from 14th-century Italy to 20th-cen-
tury Europe and the United States AND to
Southeast Asia. Id recommend sitting with
a layout map to locate favorite kinds of art
and maybe taking a mid-visit break at 2:30
p.m. to check out a video of Norton
Simons life to learn how one man could
assemble a 12,000-piece collection in 40
years. And plan to come back! This is only
one-twelfth of the collection. My favorite
pieces are Cezannes Uncle Dominique
with its 3-D palette knife application of
paint; Pizzarros Landscape with a Flock of
Sheep, in pristine close-to-original shape,
never relined or varnished; and The
Aldrovandi Dog by Guercino, called the
best-known portrait of a dog from the 17th
century.
OH, AND DID YOU KNOW? The
Norton Simon Museum is at the intersec-
tion of Orange Grove and Colorado boule-
vards in Pasadena. This corner is the ofcial
start of the Tournament of Roses Parade
route and the museum can be seen during the
parade television broadcast.
MUSEUM PARTICULARS. The
Norton Simon Museum is located at 411 W.
Colorado Blvd. in Pasadena. The Museum is
open every day except Tuesday, from noon
to 6 p.m., and Friday until 9 p.m. The
Museum offers several tours, including
Audio Tours and Friday Evening Public
Tours. Parking is free. For more informa-
tion visit www.nortonsimon.org or call

By W. Wayt Gibbs
Something about ne wine invites mys-
tique, ritual and more than a little preten-
sion.
If you have ever ordered an old and expen-
sive bottle of red from a master sommelier,
you may have seen the ostentatious produc-
tion that goes into decanting the stuff. The
wine steward rolls out a gueridon (a little
table) on which the bottle is cradled gently
in a cloth-lined basket. Alit candle ickers
nearby. The sommelier tips the neck of the
bottle over the candle while pouring the
wine with the delicacy of a surgeon into a
broad-bottomed decanter so as not to dis-
turb the sediment that has fallen out of the
wine during years of aging and character
development.
Thus aerated, the wine is then allowed
to breathe for a while before it is
served. Oenophiles even those back in
Roman times have observed that wine
of many vintages and varieties improves
perceptibly when aerated for as little as a
few minutes or for as long as a day.
Oenologists have debated the chemistry
that might account for this shift in fla-
vor. Do the tannins change in ways that
soften their distinctive flavors? Or does
aeration simply allow stinky sulfides
enough time to evaporate away?
Whatever the science behind it, the tradi-
tional ritual makes for a ne show. But
when youre at home pouring wine for your-
self or guests, you can save time and gener-
ate entertainment of a different kind by tak-
ing a shortcut: dump the bottle in a blender,
and frappe it into a froth. (Sediment is less
common in wines today than it used to be,
but if you are concerned about that, pour the
wine very slowly into the blender, and stop
before you get to the last couple ounces.)
Less than a minute of hyperdecanting, as
we at The Cooking Lab have taken to call-
ing this modern method, exposes the wine
to as much air as it would see in an hour or
more of traditional decanting, and does so
far more uniformly. Wine acionados may
recoil in fear that such a violent treatment
will break the wine, but the proof is in the
tasting.
In carefully controlled, double-blind taste
tests conducted at our lab, we presented 14
experienced wine tasters seven somme-
liers, three vintners, two oenologists and
two wine writers with unlabeled samples
of hyperdecanted wine. The tasters also
received samples taken from the same bot-
tles but decanted the old-fashioned way. The
order of presentation was varied from one
trial to the next.
When we asked them which samples they
preferred, only two of the 14 judges were
able to distinguish a difference repeatedly,
and both of those tasters consistently pre-
ferred the wine that had gone through the
blender.
So the next time you uncork a well-mus-
cled syrah or even a rambunctious ries-
ling for your connoisseur friends, bring
a blender to the table, and have a camera
ready. The foam will subside within sec-
onds. But youll cherish that memory of the
look on their faces for the rest of your days.

Max, who, while trying to go on the
straight and narrow, gets into a horrible
accident and is left with just ve days to
live.
He determines that his only hope of sur-
vival is to get to Elysium and heal himself
in one of the miraculous machines to which
the rich are privy. He enlists the help of his
former criminal cohorts to nd a way onto
the space station.
Standing in his way is of course, the outer
space version of the Rio Grande and, if that
werent challenging enough, Elysiums
bulldog secretary of defense.
The take-no-prisoners defense secretary,
Delacourt, is played by Jodie Foster who
makes Dick Cheney look like Rachel
Maddow. Her job is to keep undesirables off
of Elysium to sustain a certain way of life.
She wants to keep Elysium safe from mortal
danger but, more importantly, safe from the
philosophical and political seepage of com-
passion and socialism.
Representing Delacourt in executing her
vision is an amoral, hyper-violent and com-
pletely psycho black ops henchman named
Kruger, played with maniacal verve by
Sharlto Copley (District 9). Max and
Kruger butt heads and many other body parts
throughout the lm, providing most of the
action scenes.
Meanwhile, those ex-con cohorts assist-
ing his passage to paradise have their own
agenda. While at rst, their desires seem
merely criminal, they evolve into some-
thing more along the lines of revolutionary.
They see Max (Marx?) as a means to level-
ing the playing eld.
Its a highly enjoyable setup. If you can
ignore the massive sledgehammer of a mes-
sage being pounded into you, its easy to
admire the utter competence and skill of the
lmmaking.
Director Neil Blomkamp knows how to
leverage special effects and combine them
with frenetic action sequences. The docu-
mentary style, hand-held feel works very
well, and Blomkamp generally avoids the
queasy, overly-cut editing style of many of
his contemporaries. More importantly, he
understands the need to leaven the superb
action with multiple dimensions of story
and character development.
The script has no wasteful moments. The
dialogue is sharp, with good use of incorpo-
rating Spanish into the conversations, as
you might expect in Los Angeles 141 years
from now.
Blomkamp is denitely a new director to
watch. After watching District 9, and now
this lm, I have not been as excited for a
new director since I noticed Christopher
Nolan doing incredible things in his early
years, with Memento and Insomnia.
While the story and perhaps casting
appear to have been inuenced a little bit by
heavy-handed Hollywood producers protect-
ing their financial investments, overall,
Blomkamps vision seems to remain intact.
If Blomkamp can show he isnt just a one
trick pony (District 9 was, too, a science
fiction movie with overt socio-political
themes), he has the potential to enjoy a
career as the next Nolan. And he may yet
get the chance to earn the trust of lm nan-
ciers to have full creative control.

Call us crazy, but maybe DAngelo get-

On Wednesday, the R&B crooner
announced that, due to a medical emergency,
he wouldnt fulll his Outside Lands obliga-
tion. The festival didnt panic and instead
called on the legendary CHIC and Nile
Rogers to fill DAngelos spot Friday
evening.
CHIC is a party band and one of the nest
purveyors of uptown disco and downtown
funk around. Rogers is the co-founder and
has an extraordinary history of collabora-
tions as producer and performer with many
artists including Madonna and David Bowie.
His most recent collaboration with Daft
Punk has the Outside Lands rumor boards
swirling with the possibility of an appear-
ance by the red-hot Punk.

Outside Lands has always embraced the
monster that is EDM by welcoming major
electronic dance music acts to Golden Gate

its a step in a local direction with the citys
own Kascade on Sunday night.
Sunday at the TP stage is actually lining
up to be quite the party. Along with
Kaskade, Matt and Kim, plus the U.K.s

ping as a quintet.
And, as is the case with all great things,
Jurassic 5s return to the stage will be well
worth the wait. No one throws a hip hop
party like the Jurassic 5.
1. Red Hot Chili Peppers Sunday, Lands
End Stage, 7:45 p.m.
In a word: Finally.
The Red Hot Chili Peppers have been
everyones favorite rumor every year the
Internet gets to throwing around names for
Outside Lands. And come last May, more
than a couple of people took the credit for
calling RHCPs presence at Outside Lands.
But the truth is, who cares who called it?
The Chili Peppers will most denitely cap

huge, beautiful, red bow.

advanced portable convection vaporizer
system available. Minskoff holds a patent
for personal vaporizer inhalers.
Minskoff was in the midst of a divorce and
had a court order prohibiting him from hav-
ing weapons. However, in December,
deputies removed weapons from the scenes
of two separate incidents at the San Carlos
business. On Dec. 15, deputies reported
nding $10,000 worth of vandalism to the
building and the property burned. Deputies
took Minskoff into custody for his bizarre
behavior and conscated a loaded gun.
Two days later, according to prosecutors,
deputies again responded to the business
and found it ransacked with the oor burned
and Minskoff, who was at the scene, asked
them if they were there seeking employ-
ment. They took him once more into psy-
chiatric custody and searched the business
with the co-owner. Inside, they reported
finding four assault weapons and high-
capacity ammunition magazines. They also
reported nding a pair of brass knuckles in
his car.
Carr said his client has some diagnosed
issues that he declined to specify but has
been in serious therapy at a psychiatric
facility since his last arrest and is in a better
mental place. Carr has no current concerns
about Minskoffs ability to aid in his own
defense.
District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said the
insanity defense is a logical step.
It is certainly a reasonable plea to enter
and to have doctors appointed to see if he
meets the legal standard, Wagstaffe said.
Minskoff remains free from custody on a
$150,000 bail bond as long as he remains
in a residential psychiatric treatment facili-
t y.

The Real,Exhale, take
new approach to TV talk
LOS ANGELES Five women sitting
around talking has become a TV staple. Five
women talking, each of whom is either
black, Asian or Latino, is something differ-
ent.
Its the approach tested by two shows:
The Real, airing on a handful of Fox-owned
stations, and the Aspire channels Exhale.
For The Real, concluding an experimen-
tal run Friday, the multi-ethnic panel of
Tamar Braxton, Loni Love, Adrienne Bailon,
Jeannie Mai and Tamera Mowry-Housley
isnt the point, said executive producer
SallyAnn Salsano.
Its something we dont really talk about.
... We just picked whos best for the show. We
didnt say, Wheres our white one? Salsano
said.
The difference in The Real, she said, is
generational. Other female-centric talk
shows like The View, the genre ground-
breaker when Barbara Walters launched it in
1997, tend toward older hosts with more set-
tled lives and perspectives.
As a 39-year-old woman with friends who
are single like her or dealing with the ups and
downs of married life, Salsano said, Theres
no one who represents me on any of those
other shows.
Relationships, child-rearing and other
challenges are topics these girls are living,
she said of The Real hosts.
Exactly, said Braxton, an R&B singer and
star of the WE channels reality show Tamar
& Vince.
Im a big fan of The View and The Talk,
but with The Real, its my generation,
whether the topic is pop culture or a candid
take on daily life, she said. In a discussion of
childbirth, We really got honest with the
audience. I didnt have the best experience.
... You only hear the good side elsewhere on
TV.

Wisely plays the lead role as Macbeth. He
notes that this is one of Shakespeares later
plays and one of his shortest.
Its the best poetry in Shakespeare,
Wisely said. Its a mature writer writing at
his best. Whats not to like about it? Its an
iconic role that requires quite a bit of the per-
son that plays it. Actors want to play great
roles and Macbeth certainly is one of the
great roles.
Wisely notes that theres no intermission,
so the show moves at a locomotive-like pace.
Kenneth Kelleher directs the play. Free
Shakespeare in the Park began in 1983, with
its debut production of The Tempest in Golden
Gate Park, San Francisco. This is the rst
time SF Shakes has produced Macbeth for

56.4 percent of students scored pro-
cient and above, 0.8 of a percentage
point lower than in 2012. In science,
59.1 percent scored proficient and
above, 0.4 of a percentage point lower
than the 59.5 percent achieved in
2012. Students showed gains in histo-
ry-social science, with 49.4 percent
scoring at least procient, an increase
of 0.6 of a percentage point over last
years 48.8 percent.
On a state level, scores on the annu-
al STAR assessments slipped by a frac-
tion of a percentage point this year as
schools dealt with ongoing budget
reductions and the transition to the
Common Core State Standards, State
Superintendent Tom Torlakson said in
a press release.
The STAR program assigns
California students one of ve per-
formance levels in each tested subject:
advanced, proficient, basic, below
basic and far below basic. Californias
target is for all students to score at the
procient or advanced levels. The test
is one of three used to compile the
Academic Performance Index, which
measures whether schools and districts
are meeting the requirements of the
federal No Child Left Behind Act.
In San Mateo County, 65.3 percent
of students scored proficient or
advanced in English-Language Arts
tests, while 58.7 percent scored pro-
cient on history tests this year. In
mathematics, 59.5 percent scored pro-
cient or advanced in tests. For sci-
ence tests, 65.3 percent of students
tested procient or advanced. Students
showed a slight improvement in histo-
ry scores while the percentage of stu-
dents scoring at the advanced or pro-
cient level in English-Language Arts
and mathematics scores remained rela-
tively at reecting decreases of 0.7
percent and 0.3 percent, respectively.
Science scores dipped slightly.
Compared to 2009-10 test results,
the four-year trend continues to show
overall progress for all students in the
San Mateo Union High School
Districts seven schools,
Superintendent Scott Laurence said in a
press release.
Laurence noted that the four-year
trend is positive.
Everyone has worked diligently to
make sure our programs, including
staff development, are designed to
encourage and assist all students, he
said in the release. The test scores
over four years indicate that those
mechanisms are producing some
strong results.
Nancy Magee, administrator for
Board Support and Community
Relations at San Mateo County Ofce
of Education, said you see a trend of
slight dips in scores across the state.
She said the county is pleased it still
continues to outperform the state in its
test score numbers.
Its so consistent, its fascinating,
Magee said. Typically its a little
more varied. Its interesting and it val-
idates the amount of effort and energy
going into Common Core implemen-
tation. Its also probably a response to
so many years that districts have had
cut after cut after cut to their budgets.
The new Common Core standards
shift to more project-based and team
collaborative learning, with less time
spent on lectures and more of an
emphasis on students using technolo-
gy in classrooms. New Smarter
Balance testing, which aligns with
these new standards, will go into effect
during the 2014-15 school year. Since
1998, California school districts
spent a significant amount of time
preparing for STAR tests, which were
unpopular among some for a variety of
reasons.
We understand that were shifting
our focus to the Common Core, so it
makes sense it would impact the way
students perform in STAR testing,
Magee said. We have more intensive
priorities too, like working with com-
munity partners on third grade reading
prociency and continuing to focus on
achievement gap issues.

Test scores
nature of these legal proceedings we
are not able to comment further.
A crowd of about 25 students, each
holding signs and chanting, came out
to protest the College Boards request
and to get the word out about their
invalidated scores from 1:30 p.m. to
3:30 p.m. yesterday at the county
courthouse in Redwood City.
Cotchett, Pitre & McCarthy, the
firm representing the San Mateo
Union High School District, filed a
lawsuit against College Board and
ETS, their test security provider that
administers the AP Exams, on Aug. 5.
The suit, filed in the San Mateo
County Superior Court, states that
there is no evidence of misconduct by
the students and no evidence that the
testing irregularities materially
affected the test scores. The main
objective of the suit is to get the
scores returned to the students.
Back on July 17, the district report-
ed that ETS invalidated tests in 11 AP
subjects taken by 286 students this
past May because of seating irregu-
larities.
ETS contends a thorough investi-
gation was initiated in response to
information voluntarily provided by
a Mills student who complained
school personnel failed to comply
with specific seating guidelines.
Both ETS and the College Board
expressed understanding of the frus-
tration and offered retests.
Nancy Fineman of Cotchett Pitre &
McCarthy and the districts counsel
Gregory Wedner of Lozano Smith
Attorneys are representing the dis-
trict. Christopher Casamassima,
Jonathan Paikin and Bruce Berman of
Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and
Dorr are defending College Board and
ETS.
The first set of AP Exam retests, in
English literature and physics, are
scheduled for today. AP chemistry and
AP English language are scheduled
for Monday.
As of press time, a federal court date
had yet to be set.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Your prospects for material
acquisition look to be especially encouraging,
especially in situations where you are doing
business with someone of the opposite gender.
VirGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- It could be a mistake to
delegate a critical assignment to someone who has
yet to be tested. If you cant give the job to anyone
else, youd be better off doing it yourself.
LiBra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- If you feel compelled
to do something for another without any thought of
whats in it for you, it could turn out to be a beautiful
experience. Follow your instincts.
sCOrPiO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Go out of your way to
express your gratitude to someone who has been
quite kind to you lately. Everyone likes to know that
he or she is appreciated. Itll mean a lot.
saGittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Situations that
have strong elements of friendly competition are
always your cup of tea, and today could offer you
just such an arrangement. Win or lose, do it with
grace, and everyone benefts.
CaPriCOrn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Dont get upset
if your ears start burning, because its likely that if
you could hear all the things being said about you, it
would make you happy, not upset.
aQuarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- If you havent been
as considerate as you should be toward a loved one
lately, go out of your way to make amends. Hugs
and kisses have a magic that works every time.
PisCEs (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Make your needs and
wants secondary to those of your special someone,
especially if the relationship has gotten a bit stale
lately. Its a great way to get it stirred up again.
ariEs (March 21-April 19) -- You should take
advantage of todays trends, which will have an
especially good effect on your work situation. Things
wont just happen, however; youll need to go after
what you want.
taurus (April 20-May 20) -- If youre an unattached
Taurus who would like to fnd a special someone,
it might be a better-than-average day in terms of
meeting promising new prospects.
GEMini (May 21-June 20) -- Theres a good chance
that youll have a knack for fnalizing contentious
matters to the satisfaction of everyone. Speak up to
get your ideas across.
CanCEr (June 21-July 22) -- Be sure to compliment
someone who deserves praise for a job well
done. As long as youre sincere, it will be far more

CITY OF HALF MOON BAY
File No. and Project Name/Description: File No. PDP-19-13. Coastal Development Permit
and Stream Alteration Agreement (Notification No. 1600-2012-0173-R3, Routine Ditch Mainte-
nance, Half Moon Bay) to allow routine ditch maintenance at B and C drainage facilities and
emergency clearing and clean-up at A drainage facilities located throughout Half Moon Bay .
The Citywide program would consist of : 1) Routine maintenance activities at seventeen B and
C drainages, including trimming of vegetation; removal of vegetation, debris and sediment;
bank stabilization; and in-kind replacement of culverts and other stormwater facilities to restore
drainage features to their originally constructed conditions to prevent flooding; and 2) Emergency
clearing and clean-up to prevent flooding at five A drainages, including removal of trash and de-
bris, removal of vegetation and fallen trees or limbs resulting in non-emergency steam flow re-
strictions, and removal of fallen trees that would cause flooding, bank erosion or other public
safety hazards.
The City has performed environmental review on the project in conformance with the require-
ments of the California Environmental Quality Act. Environmental review consisted of prepara-
tion of an Initial Study to examine the nature and extent of any adverse effects on the environ-
ment that could occur if the project is approved and implemented. Based on the review, the City
has prepared a draft Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) for this project. An MND is a state-
ment by the City that the project will not have a significant effect on the environment based on
protective measures (mitigation measures) included in the project.
The public is welcome to review this draft Mitigated Negative Declaration and Initial Study.
The Public comment period for this draft Mitigated Negative Declaration begins on August 9,
2013 and ends at 5:00 p.m. on September 9, 2013.
The draft Mitigated Negative Declaration and Initial Study and reference documents are available

NAIROBI, Kenya Ofcials in Kenya
investigating the massive airport re that
gutted the arrival hall at Nairobis main air-
port said Thursday that first responders
looted electronics, a bank and an ATM dur-
ing and after the blaze.
The ofcials said rst responders stole
electronics and money from an ATM.
Another ofcial said that police guarding
the site overnight attempted to a take a safe
from a bank in the burned-out arrivals hall,
which also houses several foreign currency
exchange shops.
All four officials who described the
alleged looting are close to the investiga-
tion. They insisted on anonymity because
they werent authorized to share the infor-
mation before the investigation is com-
plete.
The re-ghting response to Wednesdays
inferno was criticized as slow and inade-
quate, but the ofcials could not denitely
say the looting was carried out by reght-
ers. One ofcial said there was now behind-
the-scenes finger pointing taking place
between the police, fire department and
army. Another official said specialized
police units had attempted to steal the safe
overnight.
The criminal investigations policeman
for the airport, Joseph Ngisa, said he hasnt
received formal complaints of theft and that
police are waiting for affected institutions
to report what they lost in the re.
All public servants in Kenya, including
police, reghters and soldiers, are poorly
paid and frequently accused of corruption.
Police ofcers who guard the entrance to
Jomo Kenyatta International Airport are
well known in Nairobi for demanding
bribes from taxi drivers and other vehicles
with Kenyan drivers.
International ights, meanwhile, resumed
Thursday as ofcials improvised immigra-
tion and luggage routines.
Kenyan ofcials, assisted by members of
the FBI, investigated the cause of the re.
One of the security ofcials who spoke to
AP said the investigation had ruled out ter-
rorism and was now trying to determine if
the re was intentional or accidental.

SANAA, Yemen The U.S. has sharply
escalated its drone war in Yemen, with mili-
tary ofcials in the Arab country reporting
34 suspected al-Qaida militants killed in
less than two weeks, including three strikes
on Thursday alone in which a dozen died.
The action against al-Qaida in the Arabian
Peninsula, as the Yemen branch is known,
comes amid a global terror alert issued by
Washington. One Mideast ofcial says the
uptick is due to its leaders leaving them-
selves more vulnerable by moving from
their normal hideouts toward areas where
they could carry out attacks.
The U.S. and Britain evacuated diplomatic
staff from the capital of Sanaa this week after
learning of a threatened attack that prompted
Washington to close temporarily 19 diplo-
matic posts in the Middle East and Africa.
Thursdays rst reported drone attack hit a
car carrying suspected militants in the dis-
trict of Wadi Ubaidah, about 175 kilometers
(109 miles) east of Sanaa, and killed six, a
security ofcial said.
Badly burned bodies lay beside their vehi-
cle, according to the ofcial. Five of the
dead were Yemenis, while the sixth was
believed to be of another Arab nationality,
he said.
Yemen official says U.S. drones kill 12 in three airstrikes
