Pressure to reopen
beach could sway
billionaires decision
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Although the legislative pro-
posal to reopen Martins Beach
was amended to carry a little less
weight Tuesday, coastal access
activists remain hopeful the atten-
tion appears to be swaying the
wealthy landowner to nally start
negotiating.
In response to mounting public
outcry against billionaire proper-
ty owner Vinod Khosla, state Sen.
Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo, proposed
Senate Bill 968 in February, which
would require the State Lands
Commission to step in and nego-
tiate to reopen the secluded strip of
coast just south of Half Moon Bay.
After easily passing the Senate
last month, the bill suffered a set-
back in the Assembly due to lob-
bying efforts allegedly afforded by
Khosla. It culminated Tuesday
morning when the bill was amend-
ed to encourage, but not require,
the commission to use its authori-
ty to take an easement in the inter-
ests of public beach access.

For some students, the only
nutritious meal they receive is at
school, so with summer vacation
in full swing, a number of Bay
Area groups are working to pro-
vide food.
One such program, which is
new, is the Burlingame CALL
Primroses summer lunch program
that runs June 15-Aug. 30. The
program is open to all families,
not just clients of the nonprot .
Current CALL Primrose clients
with children under 18 will be
offered an additional bag/box of
groceries lled with items speci-
cally geared toward the nutritional
needs and taste preferences of chil-
dren. These extra groceries will be
available to families on the same
bi-monthly schedule as groceries
that are currently offered.
It was spurred by the fact that
weve been nding out that chil-
dren on free and reduced lunch pro-
grams need support when the
school year ends, said Terri
Boesch, who recently took over as
interim director of CALL. We felt
like there is such a need there. I
think sometimes we think it does-
nt exist here, but it does. The big
challenge is to make everyone
aware because this is the rst time
weve done this.
Families are sometimes afraid to
provide a lot of information, so
this is why non-clients are being
allowed to participate in the sum-
mer program, she said.
Groups offer summer lunches
Programs hope to ll the gap meals students receive during school year

***
In 1893, the Supreme Court ruled that

CHICAGO Star Wars creator George
Lucas announced Tuesday that he has
picked Chicago to host his much-antici-
pated museum of art and movie memorabil-
ia, in a major victory for the nations third-
largest city.
San Francisco and Los Angeles also had
sought the museum. Lucas said in a written
statement that he hopes to open the Lucas
Museum of Narrative Art in 2018.
I am humbled to be joining such an
extraordinary museum community and to be
creating the museum in a city that has a
long tradition of embracing the arts, the
statement said.
The selection was somewhat of a sur-
prise, given Lucas close ties to California:
He is a native of the
state, Lucasfilms visual
effects division is based
in San Francisco and the
headquarters for
Lucasfilm and Skywalker
Sound is across the
Golden Gate Bridge in
Marin County.
But Chicago Mayor
Rahm Emanuel pushed
hard for his city. And Chicago was always
given a good chance at the Lucas museum,
in large part because Lucas wife, Mellody
Hobson, a prominent businesswoman, is
from Chicago and the city closed down
Promontory Point along the Lake
Michigan shore so the couple could host a
star-studded party to celebrate after the cou-
ples California wedding.

Man found guilty
in burglary spree
ASan Mateo County Superior Court
jury convicted a Redwood City man
Monday for a string of burglaries dat-
ing back to July 2013, prosecutors

Justin Mitchell, 27, was found
guilty of 20 felony counts ranging
from residential burglary to identity
theft, according to the District
Attorneys Ofce.
Mitchell was initially arrested in
October in connection with a vehicle
burglary in Redwood City and was later
identied by investigators as a suspect
in a string of residential, commercial
and vehicle burglaries dating back to
July.
The crime spree involved 10 victims

$405,000 bail, will return to court on
Aug. 27 to set a sentencing date.

around 275 pounds. He was seen wear-
ing a yellow T-shirt, an unknown type
of pants and blue hospital shoe cov-
ers.

warn of IRS phone scam
San Bruno police are investigating a

callers tell their victims that if they do
not pay the amount owed to the IRS
immediately, they will be arrested by
sheriffs deputies.
Victims are told that to avoid arrest,
they are to immediately process pay-
ments over the phone via a wire trans-
fer or pre-loaded debit card.
Police stressed that the IRS does not
contact taxpayers via telephone and
does not request tax payments in this
format.
Local authorities and the IRS are
aware of the calls and are actively
investigating the scam.

such calls to contact Lt. Troy Fry at

Grand jury: Inmate
fund generally good
Medical charges deposited in wrong place
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Money collected from county jail inmates for commis-
sary purchases and telephone calls is generally well-man-
aged and spent but withholdings for
medical and dental visits have been
deposited in the wrong fund, according
to the civil grand jury.
The jury issued a report Tuesday on the
inmate welfare trust fund which was
generally positive but noted that the
county could better outline where that
revenue is spent and consider partici-
pating in a pilot program allowing the
money to cover re-entry assistance.
The jury also found that the $3 charged inmates for
requested medical and dental appointments are being
placed in the welfare fund rather than the county general
fund as mandated by the state penal code. For fiscal year
2013-14, that total was $13,352.
Sheriff Greg Munks said he was unaware of that code and
is now waiting to learn if anyone in the office knew.
Munks said a fix might just be a matter of setting aside
that money in the future but he questions once it goes into
the general fund does it go to the Health System or else-
where and can it be appropriated back to the Sheriffs
Office.
The Sheriffs Office uses the fund to buy recreation
items like televisions and stand-alone computers, operate
the library system and provide a variety of inmate servic-
es like education, drug and alcohol treatment and account-
ing.
The grand jury concluded the county could better delin-
eate how the fund money is spent to ensure it isnt used on
services not allowed by the penal code which limits it to
inmates and not released individuals. Eleven counties par-
ticipate in a pilot program allowing inmate welfare funds
to be spent on re-entry needs but San Mateo County is not
among them.
Munks said the county spends $200,000 from the sher-
iffs general fund on a Service League contract to provide
those needs so joining the pilot wouldnt offer much
advantage.
Last month, Munks gave the Board of Supervisors an
annual report on the fund which showed that inmates
spent more than $1.9 million the previous fiscal year
which is part of an ongoing spending decline.
Grand jury reports carry no legal weight but recipients
must respond in writing within 90 days.
The full report can be found at

Former Redwood City council candi-
date James Lee Han stiffed the city on a
$73.73 election-related bill which
could send him into collections.
The Redwood City Council Monday
decided to pick up the tab with taxpay-
er funds to clear the books of the city
and the Elections Office but
Councilwoman Diane Howard suggest-
ed also forwarding the unpaid bill to a
collections agency. Howard conceded
the city would be required to pay a 25
percent commission to collect a small
amount of money but said it is a matter
of principal.
My concern is setting a precedent
for forgiving bad debt, Howard said.
Councilman John
Seybert, who ran
again Lee and four
others in the 2013
council race, said
his support of using
a collections
agency has nothing
to do with money.
This has to do
with the realm of
fairness and decency, Seybert said. It
sends a message to young people and
to all of us that we expect people to
play by the rules.
Mayor Jeff Gee asked that the coun-
cil pay the bill and discuss the collec-
tions option after rst hearing from
the city attorney at a later date.
Hans bill is a portion of costs for
publishing and printing a candidate
statement. The total $564.91 price tag
is divided by the number of candidates,
in this case six. The ve others have
all paid but the city clerk said she can-
not reach Han despite trying through
e-mail, voice message and two formal
letters including one with a return
receipt request. Attempts were made on
March 13 and 27, April 7, 21 and 24
and May 20.
Han did not respond to inquiries by
the Daily Journal.
City staff told the council they were
uncertain how to proceed because there
is no established precedent in recent
history.

the National Transportation Safety Board

director two of the planes key systems

The 777 has been in service 18 years and is
one of the worlds most popular wide-bodied
airliners, especially for international travel.
Until last years accident, it had not been
involved in a single fatal crash.
The boards acting chairman, Chris Hart,
warned that the accident underscores a prob-
lem that has long troubled aviation regula-
tors around the globe that increasingly
complicated automated aircraft controls
designed to improve safety are also creating
new opportunities for error.
The Asiana ight crew over-relied on
automated systems that they did not fully
understand, Hart said.
In their efforts to compensate for the
unreliability of human performance, the
designers of automated control systems have
unwittingly created opportunities for new
error types that can be even more serious
than those they were seeking to avoid, he
said.
The South Korea-based airlines pilot
training also was faulted.
Of the 307 people on board Flight 214,
three Chinese teens were killed in the July 6,
2013 crash. Nearly 200 were injured, includ-
ing 49 seriously. It remains the only fatal
passenger airline crash in the U.S. in the
past ve years.
Asiana Airlines said it has already imple-
mented the NTSBs training recommenda-
tions, and that it agreed with the NTSBs
nding that one factor was the complexity of
the autothrottle and autopilot systems, as
well as their descriptions in Boeing training
manuals.
Boeing immediately rejected the notion
that the 777s automated systems con-
tributed to the accident, pointing to the air-
crafts safety record.
The auto-ight system has been used suc-
cessfully for over 200 million ight hours
across several airplane models, and for more
than 55 million safe landings, the compa-
ny said in a statement. The evidence col-
lected during this investigation demon-
strates that all of the airplanes systems per-
formed as designed.
The board, which made 27 recommenda-
tions to prevent future disasters, didnt say
that the autothrottle failed to perform as
designed. But rather that its design, under
certain circumstances, could lead to confu-
sion as to whether it was controlling speed
or in an inactive state.
The safety board did the right thing, said
Ilyas Akbari, a Los Angeles attorney repre-
senting 16 of Flight 214s passengers. It
took courage to call out Boeing because its
an American manufacturer and one of the
nations largest employers and exporters.
But most of the fault lies with Asiana and
its pilots, Akbari said.
Investigators said the ights three veter-
an pilots made 20 to 30 different errors,
some minor and others signicant, during
the landing approach on July 6, 2013.
Among the errors were that pilots didnt
follow company procedures when they failed
to call out notications about the planes
altitude, speed and actions they were taking
during the landing approach. They also
werent closely monitoring the planes air-
speed a fundamental of ying.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
After announcing Bay Area con-
sumers hadnt conserved enough water
to make much of a dent in an 8 billion
gallon year-end savings goal, ofcials
urge the public to increase efforts over
the summer or potentially face manda-
tory rationing.
Based on a mid-year supply update
released Monday, the San Francisco
Public Utilities Commission and the
Bay Area Water Supply and
Conservation Agency have decided to
evaluate monthly whether consumers
will be required to conserve or possi-
bly pay penalties.
In response to a three-year dry spell
and the state reeling from 2013 being
the driest year on record, the SFPUC
issued a 10 percent voluntary
rationing request in February.
Conservation proved to be minimal
until a few weeks ago and if the efforts
dont stay consistent, consumers could
see a spike in their water bills, said
BAWSCA CEO Nicole Sandkulla.
Specics on any increase have yet to
be determined, she said.
If we dont continue to see the trend
weve seen in the last couple weeks
[the SFPUC] could make that decision
and I would support them making that
decision as early as the middle of July.
Its that critical that we need to keep
these savings happening, Sandkulla
said.
BAWSCA represents the interests of
24 cities and water districts as well as
two public utility companies along the
Peninsula that purchase wholesale
water from the SFPUC. Nearly 2.6 mil-
lion Bay Area residents receive water
from the SFPUC, which sources its
supplies from the Hetch Hetchy
Reservoir.
As part of its mid-year review, the
SFPUC announced the Hetch Hetchy
storage system stands at just 64.5 per-
cent of its 117 billion gallon maxi-
mum capacity and any available snow-
pack that would have contributed has
already melted.
Nearly halfway through the year,
customers have only saved 1.4 billion
gallons of water or just 17 percent of
the suppliers year-end goal, according
to the SFPUC.
We are not out of the woods yet.
Mandatory rationing is still on the
table, SFPUC General Manager
Harlan Kelly said in a press release.
Every customer needs to redouble
their conservation efforts so we can
stretch water supplies into 2015 and
beyond.
In previous years, once the SFPUC
decides to make rationing mandatory,
BAWSCA and its distributors would
agree to comply and ultimately enforce
its customers to as well by either
charging penalties or restricting water
ow, Sandkulla said.
Officials are hopeful that after
increasing the message to the public
highlighting the severity of the
drought and offering incentives for
conserving, the SFPUC will be able to
succeed its goals, Sandkulla said.
As we look at the numbers, were on
track with where we should be for right
now, but thats assuming that we can
get the largest amount of savings in
the summer which is really where were
targeting right now, Sandkulla said.
As summer can be the most difcult
and yet critical seasons for the public
to increase conservation efforts, the
SFPUC and BAWSCA have decided to
enhance incentives, Sandkulla said.
BAWSCA has removed restrictions
on the amount a consumer can collect
through rebate offers and has started a
new Lawn Be Gone! program,
Sandkulla said.
The biggest conservation savings
is reducing outdoor water use,
Sandkulla said. As of July 1, well
provide someone a dollar a square foot
to remove their turf and replace it with
water-efcient landscaping. So were
really trying to recognize, we dont
want concrete-scape we really want
communities that look beautiful but
are just more water efcient.
The same indoor conservation
strategies such as turning off the water
when lathering, only washing full
loads, meticulously checking for and
repairing any leaks and installing
water-efcient devices is still critical,
Sandkulla said. The SFPUC also rec-
ommends the public minimize using
water to clean outdoor surfaces, avoid
washing ones car at home by using a
commercial car wash instead and
restaurants have also been advised to
only serve water when requested.
At a certain point, theres only so
many behavioral changes an individ-
ual can do short of not showering,
thats why focusing on outdoor water
consumption is critical during the
summer, Sandkulla said. People should
only water their plants, trees and
lawns just enough to keep it alive,
Sandkulla said. Although it may not be
as aesthetically appealing to see a
brown lawn, ensuring theres enough
supply for critical human uses is worth
eyesore, Sandkulla said.
This is a serious drought unfortu-
nately, which means were going to
have to take some serious actions.
And while its visually hard to look at
sometimes, it doesnt affect your
lifestyle as much, Sandkulla said. If
it means to continue to have drinking
water and you have a brown lawn, to
me thats an easy thing to do.
Individuals should check with their
local water supplier for various rebate
offers. For more information about
BAWSCA and to learn more about the
Lawn Be Gone! Program visit

tion about the SFPUC visit www.sfwa-
ter.org/conservation.

California drought helps
coho salmon migration
SAN RAFAEL Californias massive drought has spelled
bad news for many of the states sh. But in a strange twist,
it appears to have been a boon to coho salmon migrating
from a Northern California creek.
Nearly 20,000 juvenile coho swam out of the Lagunitas
Creek in Marin County into the ocean this spring, the
largest salmon migration since scientists started tracking
sh outow from the creek in 2006.
The migration bump is due to the lack of rain this year,
scientists say. Juvenile coho, also known as silver salmon,
normally gather in the lower reaches of the Lagunitas before
heading to sea.
But the abundance of coho there means some get bumped
out.
This year, the fish were trapped in small tributaries
because of the drought. Since they didnt make it to the
lower Lagunitas, they werent driven away.
This was an unexpected silver lining to the dry condi-
tions this year, and it is related to the unique habitat limita-
tions in this watershed, said Eric Ettlinger, the aquatic
ecologist for the Marin Municipal Water District, which
helps with the annual salmon count.
Immigrants want more bend in driver license rules
LOS ANGELES As California prepares to issue drivers
licenses to immigrants in the country illegally, residents
sounded off Tuesday on what documents should be accepted as
proof of identity and residency in the state.
At a packed hearing in Los Angeles, scores of immigrants
urged the Department of Motor Vehicles to expand the list of
acceptable documents to include church and childrens school
records, which may be easier for some people to obtain.
As a homemaker, we dont get a membership card or a pay
stub, said Martha Escandon, 42, whose Mexican immigrant
family obtained legal papers in the 1980s. Escandon said she
volunteers at her South Los Angeles church and knows many
mothers who could face a hard time obtaining proof of resi-
dency to apply for a license.

KFC: No proof worker
asked scarred child to leave
JACKSON, Miss. Fried chicken chain
KFC said two different investigations have
not found any evidence that an employee
asked a 3-year-old girl and family members to
leave because injuries she suffered in a pit bull
mauling disturbed customers.
KFC spokesman Rick Maynard said
Tuesday the company considered the matter
closed after an internal investigation by the
franchise restaurant in Jackson and an inde-
pendent probe. Maynard said the company
would honor its commitment to donate
$30,000 to help with medical bills for
Victoria Wilcher.
Like the rest of America, the KFC family
has been moved by the story of Victorias
injuries and recovery, Maynard said. We
hope everyone keeps Victoria in their
thoughts and prayers. She will certainly be in
ours.
Allegations that Victoria was asked to leave
the restaurant were made earlier this month on
the Facebook site Victorias Victories, which
has followed her recovery from the April
attack.
In a statement, Hannon Food Services,
which operates the restaurant, said the compa-
ny was deeply troubled by the allegation.
As part of its investigation, Hannon said it
spent hundreds of hours reviewing surveil-
lance video, interviewing employees and
hired the outside investigator. The company
said it would reach out to the childs family for
additional discussions.
Jackson attorney Bill Kellum, in a state-
ment Tuesday afternoon on behalf of the
childs family, said Victorias grandmother,
Kelly Mullins, stands by her claim of what
happened at the restaurant.
Washington prepares
for marijuana retail sales
OLYMPIA, Wash. As Washington state
prepares to issue the rst licenses for marijua-

state leaders on Tuesday announced a coordi-
nated campaign to make sure pot stays out of
the hands of minors once products start hit-
ting store shelves next month.
Those who have led the effort to legalize
this product understand that weve got to
make sure that parents roles are respected and
emphasized and that the health of our children
is of our paramount concern, Inslee said.
Different state agencies are working together
to make sure the public has the information
they need to make healthy decisions and the
tools that they need to keep our kids safe, he
said.

WASHINGTON Homeland Security
Secretary Jeh Johnson told Congress on
Tuesday he would consider every conceiv-
able, lawful option to deal with a continuing
ood of immigrants crossing the U.S. border
illegally in South Texas.
Johnson told the House Homeland
Security Committee that he wont rule out
using National Guard troops, as several law-
makers have suggested, but he warned that
there are limitations to using troops to help
manage what has become a humanitarian cri-
sis at the border.
Ive heard the calls from some that we put
the Guard on the border. Id want to under-
stand better what the options are for the use
of the Guard, Johnson told lawmakers dur-
ing more than two hours of questioning.
But there are denitely some limitations on
the use of the Guard in this respect, I think,
and we have to be mindful of those.
The White House indicated later in the day
it wasnt interested in the proposal to
deploy troops.
There has already been a historic commit-
ment of resources to the border, White
House spokesman Josh Earnest said.
Since the start of the budget year last
October, Border Patrol agents have appre-
hended more than 52,000 immigrant chil-
dren crossing the border alone. Most of the
young immigrants are from Honduras, El
Salvador and Guatemala and have been
caught in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas.
At the same time, the Border Patrol has
arrested more than 39,000 adults with chil-
dren. An unknown number of those immi-
grants have been released with notices to
report to Immigration and Customs
Enforcement ofces near their nal destina-
tions inside the United States.
The administration has refused to say how
many of those people have been released or
how many have reported as ordered. Earnest
told reporters Tuesday that he did not have
the number but added, Without knowing
what that number is and without having seen
it, I think we can all stipulate that that num-
ber is too high.
In the mid-2000s, President George W.
Bush twice deployed National Guard troops
to the border to help augment the Border
Patrol as it bolstered its ranks. The agency
has more than doubled in size since then,
with more than 21,000 agents.
While troops were deployed, they were
prohibited under federal law from performing
law enforcement duties and instead conducted
surveillance and helped with maintenance
issues.
Border Patrol Deputy Chief Ronald
Vitiello testified Tuesday that while the
inux of children traveling alone and adults
crossing the border illegally with children
has strained resources in South Texas, it has-
nt necessarily created a security problem.
Its not a challenge to arrest people who
come as children or families with children,
Vitiello said. Many illegal border-crossers
dont try to elude border agents and quickly
surrender once they encounter agents.

WASHINGTON The Internal Revenue
Service did not follow the law when it
failed to report the loss of records belong-
ing to a senior IRS executive, the nations
top archivist told Congress on Tuesday, in
the latest development in the congression-
al probe of the agencys targeting of con-
servative groups seeking tax-exempt sta-
tus.
In June 2011, IRS executive Lois
Lerners computer crashed, resulting in the
loss of records that are sought in investi-
gations into the agencys actions. At the
time, the agency tried to recover Lerners
records, but with no success.
When it was determined later in the sum-
mer of 2011 that the records on the hard
drive were gone forever, the IRS should
have notified the National Archives and
Records Administration, U.S. Archivist
David Ferriero told members of the House
Oversight and Government Reform
Committee. But Ferriero learned of the lost
records on June 13 when the IRS notified
Congress.
Any agency is required to notify us
when they realize they have a problem,
Ferriero said.
Lerner is at the center of the controversy
and has refused to answer questions from
Congress, citing her Fifth Amendment
right not to incriminate herself. In May,
the House voted to hold Lerner in contempt
of Congress. She retired from the IRS last
fall after having been placed on paid leave.

SACRAMENTO Abill responding to
the sexual assault of a Northern
California teenager who committed sui-
cide after a photo of the attack was post-
ed on social media was amended Tuesday
to remove a mandatory two-year sen-
tence for juvenile offenders.
Members of the Assembly Public Safety
Committee objected to requiring a minimum
of two years punishment outside the home
for young people convicted of sexually
assaulting someone who is unconscious.
The parents of 15-year-old Audrie Pott of
Saratoga expressed outrage after the three
teenagers who had assaulted their daughter
in 2012 received sentences of 30 to 45 days.
Sen. Jim Beall, D-San Jose, dropped the
mandatory punishment from his bill,
prompting the public safety committee to
approve the compromise and send the bill
to the Assembly Appropriations
Committee.

MOSCOW The shaky cease-fire in
Ukraine was thrown into peril Tuesday when
pro-Moscow separatists shot down a
Ukrainian military helicopter, killing nine
servicemen.
Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko
warned he may end the weeklong truce ahead
of time. The deadly attack came a day after
the rebels vowed to respect the cease-re,
which began last Friday.
Russian President Vladimir Putin, mean-
while, played the peacemaker, urgi ng
Ukraine to extend the truce and sit down for
talks with the rebels. He also moved to
rescind a parliamentary resolution authoriz-
ing him to use the Russian military in
Ukraine.
Poroshenko declared the cease-re as part
of a plan to end two months of ghting
between government troops and pro-
Russian insurgents in the east. The vio-
lence, which erupted after the Kremlins
lightning annexation of Crimea in March,
has left hundreds dead.
The cease-re has been repeatedly broken
by sporadic clashes, and it was violated
again Tuesday when rebels used a shoulder-
fired missile to down a helicopter in
Slovyansk, a key ashpoint in the insur-
gency.
Poroshenko said in a statement that the
insurgents had red on Ukrainian positions
35 times since the cease-fire was
announced, and he instructed Ukrainian sol-
diers to re back without hesitation if
attacked.
The president doesnt exclude that the
cease-re could be lifted ahead of time, tak-
ing into account its constant violation by
the rebels controlled from abroad,
Poroshenkos ofce said.
It added that Poroshenko expects that his
phone call, set for Wednesday, with Putin,
German Chancellor Angela Merkel and
French President Francois Hollande would
lead to practical steps by Russia to disarm
and recall mercenaries from Ukraine and
ensure the reliable protection of the bor-
der.

PESHAWAR, Pakistan Authorities in
Pakistan were looking for a gunman who
opened fire at a plane Tuesday evening just
as it was landing in the volatile north-
west, killing one person and wounding
two others, officials said, casting fresh
doubts about security at the countrys air-
ports.
The violence in Peshawar comes just
two weeks after gunmen laid siege to the
countrys busiest airport in Karachi in an
attack that shocked Pakistanis and the
international community and helped trig-
ger a long-awaited military offensive
against militants in the northwest.
A female passenger on board the plane
died on the way to the hospital, said
Mashood Tajwar, a spokesman for the
national carrier, Pakistan International
Airlines. He said 178 passengers and an
undetermined number of crew were on
board.
Two other people on the flight were also
wounded, said Dost Muhammad Khan, the
station house officer in charge of the area.
The plane was coming from Riyadh, Saudi
Arabia, said Khan and the passengers were
believed to mostly be Pakistanis who go
to Saudi Arabia to work. He said the
woman had been visiting her husband and
had also gone on a religious pilgrimage.
When the plane was about the land, we
heard shots and suddenly there was chaos
in the flight, said an unidentified male
passenger, speaking to Dunya TV outside
the airport.
Khan initially said five bullets hit the
plane as it was coming in to the airport,
but the Senior Superintendent of Police,
Najeeb ur Rehman Bhagvi, said when he
and other authorities later inspected the
plane they found at least ten bullet holes.
The plane was about 300 feet (90 meters)
off the ground when someone opened fire
on it from below with a sub-machine gun
or an AK-47, Bhagvi said.
Authorities were scouring the area
around the airport to find whoever is
responsible, Khan said.
There was no immediate claim of
responsibility but suspicion will likely
fall on militants that the government has
been fighting in the countrys northwest.
The Pakistani Taliban has been attempt-
ing for years to overthrow the government
and establish their hardline form of Islam
across the country.

OPINION 9
Immigration
Editor,
The immigration crisis with tens
of thousands of child immigrants
detained highlights the problem we
are having securing the border. Its
not often I agree with some of your
conservative letter contributors, but
we cannot have unfettered and undocu-
mented immigration on this scale and
they should be sent back.
I have to agree that the policies of
the administration exacerbated this
situation with the perception there
are no consequences. I am an inde-
pendent voter that generally sides
with the Democrats due to the percep-
tion conrmed by national poll num-
bers of the stupidity and lack of ideas
coming from the tea party types run-
ning the Republican Party. When
folks like me are in agreement that
the system is broken and current
immigration numbers cannot and
should not be tolerated, then
Democrats who ignore the border
enforcement aspect of immigration
and only concentrate on the percep-
tion they are welcoming future
Democratic voters will have a rude
awakening at the polls.

IRS scandal
Editor,
Incredulously the IRS is informing
Congress that the computer hard
drives of seven employees all crashed
during this critical episode, where
decisive emails were lost from the
server where they were stored and that
forensic techniques for recovering
data from all hard drives failed.
I supported networks, servers and
computers at a major mutual funds
company for years and obviously
their resources were far less substan-
tial than the IRS. Countless numbers
of times, I retrieved essential les,
including emails from off-site backup
tapes ... such retrievals were neces-
sary due to le age or server crashes,
but they could easily be recovered,
even decades later.
Analogous to Lois Lerners lies and
pleas to the fth, this story of lost
emails is simply high-order deceit
and participants of this charade
should all be indicted or impeached
for permitting such a travesty of
deception appropriate only for a
Third World tyrannical nation.

B
y any measure, San Carlos is
ourishing. Property values
are rising, new businesses are
moving into downtown, our city budg-
et is balanced and, in a recent survey,
98 percent of residents described our
quality of life as very good or excel-
lent.
Young families are moving to San
Carlos in droves, looking for a place
to put down roots and raise their chil-
dren. They are drawn by our outstand-
ing quality of life, access to great job
opportunities and the excellent reputa-
tion of our schools.
As anyone who has walked down
Laurel Street recently can attest, our
child population is on the rise, and the
San Carlos Elementary School District
estimates that student enrollment will
grow close to 20 percent by the end of
the decade.
To maintain our excellent quality of
life, and meet the rising demand, we
need to provide the facilities our kids
need to learn and play. With budgets
tight, and little available land, the
school district and the city have been
working together to nd a creative
solution to that challenge on behalf of
our community. We believe we have
found that solution.
Our joint plan will create more class-
rooms, increase playing eld space
and protect trails and open space.
First, the plan calls for relocating
San Carlos historic Charter Learning
Center to a parcel of undeveloped open
space on Crestview Drive. This will
free space to build two new schools,
one on the Tierra
Linda campus and
one on the Central
Middle School cam-
pus to meet growing
enrollment in the
school district.
Second, the city
and school district
will partner to build
a new athletic eld,
open to the public,
behind Tierra Linda.
In addition, the
playing field at
Heather School will
be protected and a
new field at the
Charter School will
be available.
Third, the trails
and dog park locat-
ed on the hillside to
the west of Heather
School will be pro-
tected and main-
tained.
This plan has
been the result of
extensive discus-
sion and public
input. We respect
the members of our
community who
have voiced con-
cerns about locat-
ing a school on
Crestview and
appreciate their
thoughtful engage-
ment in the public
dialogue.
There are still
several steps in the
process to make this plan a reality.
Because the open space on Crestview
Drive was originally intended to be a
park, California state law requires a
vote of the people to build a school. It
is our hope that this will be placed on
the ballot in November. To do so
requires a four-fths vote of the City
Council. That vote will occur June 30.
Because this proposal has received
such widespread interest from so
many, we believe that the people of
San Carlos deserve to have the oppor-
tunity to decide its fate. To do other-
wise would be disrespectful not only of
our citizens but of the democratic
process itself.
San Carlos is built around families,
and the bedrock belief that our kids
deserve a hometown where they can
learn, grow, play and chase their
dreams. As a new generation of fami-
lies take root in San Carlos, this plan
will make sure our kids have the
schools and elds they need for years
to come.
Ron Collins is the vice mayor of San
Carlos, Cameron Johnson is member
of the San Carlos City Council, Adam
Rak is the president of the San Carlos
Elementary School District Board of
Trustees and Nicole Bergeron is a mem-
ber of the San Carlos Elementary
School District Board of Trustees.

It seems that House Republicans, who have repeatedly
delayed votes on the controversial waiver of school lunch
rules, may now realize that they cant win the ght. The
waiver would delay the requirements that the schools
serve more fresh produce, more whole grains and less
sugar, trans fats and salt. Far be it for those who have
been trying to end the crusade should favor the improve-
ments. Far be it for them to gure out ways to make such
foods more palatable for children and to give it more
time.
As Michelle Obama argued: It is our job as adults to
make sure that our kids eat what they need, not what they
want. ... If I let my kids dictate what we have for dinner
every day, it would be french fries, chips and candy. But
we dont run our house-
holds like that, and we
cant run our schools like
that.
Of course, the problem
stems from the contribu-
tion that the food industry
has had in relation to chil-
drens health problems. It
goes back to the rene-
ment of wheat our and on
up to todays plethora of
fabricated and junk foods.
Its not only what has been
removed from foods, but
what has been added like
articial colors, HFCS and BPA. You wonder how many of
the ailments of children from ADHD to diabetes to can-
cer are the result of the industry adulteration of foods.
As Mr. Pollan also wrote: What an extraordinary
achievement for civilization to have developed the one
diet that reliably makes people sick.
In spite of Pollans book, many people feel that the
nutrition issue has become so complicated that it makes
them throw their hands up in dismay which, no doubt,
the industry is counting on. And with most parents so
busy, even if they want to do the best nutritionally for
their children, the tide has rapidly risen against them. If
children can be better fed at lunchtime at school, wouldnt
that be a big step in the right direction?
We know that the obesity rate of children (and adults)
in the United States is alarming for many reasons. For
one, there have been no health and nutrition classes in
most schools for years. Too many parents are ignorant
about good nutrition and think eating healthfully is too
complicated and expensive. Two: Overscheduled or indif-
ferent parents too often rely on ready prepared foods,
whether from fast-food outlets, those that can be nuked in
the microwave or are pre-packaged. No one is monitoring
the familys eating habits. And three: Mom and Dad are
hooked on fast-food burgers, pizza, hot dogs, highly
sweetened drinks, chips and many other unhealthy indus-
try-promoted products and, sadly, but true, are not willing
to give them up. No concern about their own or their
childrens future health. Seems this should be considered
a form of child abuse.
The food industry isnt worried. As Marion Nestle wrote
in Food Politics: Food companies are not health or
social service agencies, and nutrition becomes a factor in
corporate thinking only when it can help sell food. The
ethical choices involved in such thinking are considered
all too rarely.
When legislation comes up to label products contain-
ing genetically modied ingredients or to indicate the
amount of added sugar, or the chemical ingredients, those
corporations keep busy counteracting these plans. And
they know that their ploys to make products more appeal-
ing and to encourage more people to consume them, will
win out with the great majority of consumers.
Of course, responsible, caring, determined parents can
vow to never have soft drinks in the house, to stay away
from fast-food places, to use canned foods as little as
possible and prepare food at home from the best ingredi-
ents they can nd to give their children a good start in
life. And when the kids get older and are often out buying
their own food, well, they did the best they could.
So lunch at school may be the best chance for some
kids to eat healthfully. But the effort by Michelle Obama
and the school districts that have gotten with the pro-
gram is dismissed and opposed by people who should
know better. As a recent editorial in the San Jose Mercury
reminded us: The agenda of conservatives who are
backed by food-industry behemoths such as Pepsi,
General Mills and Dominos Pizza is ghting the Obamas
even on good causes and doing corporate Americas bid-
ding. It will be interesting to see what the House
Republicans next move will be.

Big movers
By Ken Sweet
NEWYORK The stock market had
its biggest decline in two weeks
Tuesday, led by a sell-off in blue-chip
bank and energy stocks. Homebuilders
rose after the government reported
sales of new homes rose in May to the
highest level in six years.
The late-afternoon selling came dur-
ing a relatively quiet week for Wall
Street. Traders said the selling might be
tied to large mutual funds having to
rebalance their portfolios ahead of the
end of the quarter next week. Other
traders pointed to the ongoing violence
in Iraq as a reason to pull out of the mar-
ket ahead of the end of the quarter.
The Dow Jones industrial average fell
119.13 points, or 0.7 percent, to
16,818.13. The Standard & Poors 500
index lost 12.63 points, or 0.6 percent,
to 1,949.98 and the Nasdaq composite
fell 18.32 points, or 0.4 percent, to
4,350.36.
The Dow fell more than the S&P 500
and Nasdaq as investors sold large,
brand-name stocks. Exxon Mobil,
Boeing, American Express and
JPMorgan Chase all fell 1 percent or
more.
The selling in blue-chip stocks
marks a recent and notable change in
trader behavior. Stocks of large, diver-
sied companies have been among the
most popular with investors this year.
With the quarter end and mid-year
approaching, its not uncommon for
investors to sell some of the best per-
forming names to rebalance their port-
folios.
Vertex Pharmaceuticals was a bright
spot in the S&P500. The drug company
soared $26.92, or 40 percent, to
$93.53 after Vertex said its treatment
for cystic brosis appeared to work bet-
ter than a placebo in a late-stage study.
Vertex plans to seek approval for the
treatment in the U.S. and Europe.
Traders say its a positive sign to see
investors heading back into biotech-
nology stocks. The sector was among
the hardest hit in March and April. Even
with todays declines, the S&P 500
Biotechnology index rose 1.3 percent.
That was a growth area that worried a
lot of people, but the news out of Vertex
is very bullish, said Ian Winer, director
of stock trading at Wedbush Securities.
The news has renewed a risk appetite
in that space we have not seen in
months.
Micron Technology jumped $1.24, or
4 percent, to $32.50, making it the sec-
ond-biggest advancer in the S&P 500.
The semiconductor maker reported bet-
ter-than-expected earnings and raised
its forecast for the next quarter. Dow
component Intel, another major chip-
maker, rose 27 cents, or 0.9 percent, to
$30.50.
Homebuilder stocks also did well
Tuesday after the Commerce
Department said sales of new homes
jumped 18.6 percent in May to an annu-
alized rate of 504,000. Thats the high-
est level since May 2008.
International concerns remain an
issue for investors as well. The United
Nations said Tuesday that more than
1,000 people, mostly civilians, have
been killed in Iraq so far this month, the
highest death toll since the U.S. mili-
tary withdrew from the country in
December 2011. In the United Arab
Emirates, Dubais stock market fell 6.7
percent Tuesday and Abu Dhabis fell
3.3 percent.
Bond prices rose as investors sought
safety amid the stock market declines.
The yield on the 10-year Treasury note
fell to 2.58 percent from 2.63 on
Monday.

risk appetite in that space we have not seen in months.

The price of oil was steady Tuesday as
investors monitored the insurgency roiling
Iraq for any signs it could affect its oil pro-
duction and exports.
Islamic militants have been steadily
expanding their grip on the countrys
north, where they control a broad swath of
territory. But the bulk of the countrys pro-
duction and export operations are in the
south, which have so far been spared in this
months advance by the al-Qaeda-inspired
group. Iraqs daily oil production hit 3.5
million barrels this year, up from nearly
2.4 million a day in 2009.
Benchmark U.S. crude for August delivery
dropped 14 cents to $106.03 per barrel on
the New York Mercantile Exchange. Brent
crude, used to price international oils, rose
34 cents to $114.46 a barrel in London.
The head of OPEC, the group of major oil
exporters, on Tuesday said the recent rise in
crude oil prices is to blame on market fears
and speculation, rather than any drop in
output from Iraq.
Secretary General Abdullah Al-Badry said
Iraq is still producing as normal, with 95
percent of its capacity in the countrys
south being unaffected by the violence.
On Wednesday, traders will get the latest
U.S. supply data from the Energy
Department. Analysts are expecting the
report to show that oil supplies fell by 2
million barrels last week, according to a
survey by Platts.
In other energy futures trading on the
Nymex:
Wholesale gasoline rose 2 cents to
$3.13 a gallon.
Natural gas rose 9 cents to $4.54 per
1,000 cubic feet.
Heating oil rose 1 cent to $3.04 a gal-
l on.
Fox to own San
Francisco TV station in Cox swap
LOS ANGELES Fox is taking over San
Francisco Bay Area TV station KTVU-TV i n
a two-station swap with Cox Media Group.
The broadcast network, part of Rupert
Murdochs Twenty-First Century Fox Inc.,
said Tuesday it is acquiring the Oakland-
based station along with independent sta-
tion KICU-TV.
In exchange, Fox is giving Cox control
of WHBQ-TV in Memphis, Tennessee, and
WFXT-TV in Boston. After the deal,
WHBQ-TV and WFXT-TV will remain Fox
affiliates.
Fox Television Stations Inc. CEO Jack
Abernethy said in a statement the deal gives
Fox a compelling growth opportunity in a
top-10 market. Fox didnt previously own
a Bay Area station.
Cox Media President Bill Hoffman said
the swap gives Cox a presence in Memphis
and Boston for the rst time. The swap is
subject to regulatory approval.
New York-based Fox has 28 stations.
Atlanta-based Cox has 14.
AT&T says DirecTV
deal could slow price hikes
NEW YORK AT&Ts CEO has told
Congress that his companys purchase of
DirecTV will help slow increases in pro-
gramming prices, but wont lead to a
decrease in prices.
CEO Randall Stephenson spoke to two
Congressional committees Tuesday to
defend AT&Ts $48.5 billion deal to buy the
countrys largest satellite TV broadcaster.
Stephenson was pressed on the cost issue
at a hearing of the Senate Commission of
the Judiciary. He said pay-TV costs are ris-
ing because of programming costs driven
by TVstudios and sports networks, and said
he couldnt promise a decline in prices.

LOS ANGELES Whole Foods will pay
about $800,000 in penalties and fees after
an investigation found the grocery retailer
was overcharging customers in California.
State and local inspectors discovered that
purchased foods weighed less than the label
advertised and the weight of salad bar con-
tainers wasnt subtracted at checkout, pros-
ecutors said. In addition, the grocer sold
prepared foods like kebabs by the item
rather than by the pound as mandated by
law.
The pricing discrepancies violated con-
sumer protection laws regarding false
advertising and unfair competition, prose-
cutors said.
Whole Foods must pay $210,000 to each
of the city attorneys of Santa Monica, Los
Angeles and San Diego, who brought the
case against the retailer. Whole Foods must
also reimburse county and state agencies
that conducted the pricing investigation
and pay $100,000 to a weights and meas-
urements enforcement fund.
As part of an agreement covering ve
years, the grocer must appoint state- and
store-level pricing accuracy managers, and
each of the 74 Whole Foods stores in
California will face random quarterly audits.
The consumer protection case was
brought against Whole Foods Market
California Inc. and Mrs. Goochs Natural
Food Markets Inc., the two subsidiaries of
Whole Foods Market Inc. that operate its
California stores.
Whole Foods issued a statement noting
that the company cooperated with the year-
long investigation and prices were accurate
98 percent of the time. The Austin, Texas-
based retailer vowed to improve internal
procedures to reduce human error, according
to the statement.

Pacica Americans Andrew Harkness drives in a pair of runs with a single in the top of the fth inning to give his team a 12-10 lead during
the Mets 13-10 win over the Foster City Red Sox in the nals of the District 52 Tournament of Champions. Harkness also picked up the win
on the mound with 2 1/3 innings of one-hit ball.
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
There were two interesting story lines at
District 52 Little League Tournament of
Champions championship game Tuesday
afternoon at Foster Citys Sea Cloud Park.
On one side, there was the Foster City Red
Sox, which nished last in the Foster City
Little League regular season, before catch-
ing re and reeling off nine straight wins to
capture the league tournament and advance
to the TOC nals.
On the other side was the Pacifica
American Mets, which needed a win in the
TOC nals to complete an undefeated sea-
son.
In a game that went back and forth all
game long, it was the Mets that nally shut
down the Red Sox to record a 13-10 victory
and complete a perfect 18-0 season.
Mets head coach Len Harkness admitted to
feeling the pressure of going through the
entire season without a loss.
You never want to lose in the champi-
onship game, Harkness said. I knew
[Foster City] had a team that could come out
here and play.
It was Andrew Harkness who finally
cooled off the Foster City bats. He came on
in relief of Mets starter Nate Azzopardi with
two outs in the bottom of the fourth inning
and his team trailing 10-9. Andrew
Harkness got the nal out of the fourth, the
Mets scored three runs in the fth to take a
12-10 lead, added an insurance run in the
fth and Harkness limited the Red Sox to
just one hit over the nal two innings to
record the victory.
[Andrew] would be my ace, but hes had
arm problems. Ive been babying him along
all season, Len Harkness said. I didnt
really feel comfortable going to my son (in
that situation), but he asked for the ball.
Andrew Harkness was the only pitcher of
the game to shut down the opposition.
Before he came into the game, it was a
slugfest. Foster City scored 10 runs on 13
hits. The Red Sox had four batters with two
hits and three drive in two runs or more.
Jonathan Scofield had a pair of hits
including a three-run bomb in the fourth
inning and drove in three runs while scor-
ing twice. JC Ng added a pair of hits, includ-
ing a double and scored twice. Jeremy
Chong hit his rst home run of the season,
a two-run shot in the bottom of the rst. He
nished with three RBIs. Lopeti Pierce hit a

NEWYORK Scott Kazmir has been so
good for the Oakland Athletics, manager
Bob Melvin wasnt prepared to see his ace
op so badly.
Kazmir was tagged for three homers and
allowed a season-high seven runs in the As
10-1 loss to the New York Mets and Bartolo
Colon on Tuesday night.
Its almost a shock
when you see him give up
some runs but he just got
some balls up, missed
locations with a few of
them and they didnt miss
them, Melvin said.
Usually hes so unpre-
dictable in his pitches
that if he does get a ball
up sometimes he gets
away with it but he didnt today.
A rst-round draft pick by New York in
2002 but sent to Tampa Bay in a very unpop-
ular trade two years later, Kazmir struggled
from the start in his first start ever in
Queens.
He entered with the ALs best ERA (2.08)
and on a four-game winning streak, but was
out after just three innings. His ERArose to
2.66.
Kazmir (9-3) gave up consecutive homers

FIFAhas ofcially charged Uruguays Luis
Suarez with biting Italy defender Giorgi o
Chiellini in the teams World Cup match, a
process that could lead to a suspension for
Uruguays best offensive player.
FIFA announced early Wednesday that its
disciplinary committee has opened proceed-
ings against Suarez, just
hours after the end of
Tuesdays match.
If the panel nds Suarez
guilty of assaulting an
opponent, FIFArules call
for a ban of at least two
matches up to a maximum
of 24 months.
FIFAasked the team to
present evidence, which
can include video recordings, by 5 p.m.
local time (2000 GMT) Wednesday.
A decision must be published before
Saturday, when Uruguay plays Colombia in
a round-of-16 match at Maracana stadium.
Uruguay advanced by beating Italy 1-0 on
Tuesday in Natal. One minute before the
decisive goal, Suarez clashed with Chiellini
and was caught by television cameras appar-
ently biting his shoulder.
Match referee Marco Rodriguez of Mexico
appeared not to see the incident and took no
action.
Brazils World Cup has been a high-scor-
ing tournament featuring late goals, come-
backs, full stadiums and underdog stories,
but the bite was got much of the global
attention Tuesday.
Earlier in his career, the 27-year-old
Suarez was suspended in the Netherlands and

Zach Harte just battled, and battled, and
battled some more.
San Mateo Americans starting pitcher
turned in a gutty performance in Tuesdays
District 52 Minors Superbowl Tournament
championship game. Although Harte took a
no-decision, he set the stage for his teams
7-2 victory over San Mateo National in a
rematch of last years championship game.
It is the second straight year American has
prevailed.
These boys put in a lot of hard work and
dedication, American manager Nick Corey
said. They deserve it.
Harte worked four innings to keep it
close. Then in the bottom of the fifth
inning, American broke open a 2-2 tie with
a ve-run rally. Kevin Sanchez plated the
go-ahead run, scoring from second base on a
heads-up play after an ineld error.
Sanchez sparked the rally with a one-out
single to right. After he advanced to second
on a passed ball and Alan Tanelieu walked,
Lorenzo Vasquez hit a two-out grounder on
the ineld. The grounder was bobbled which
led to confusion on the ensuing throw to
rst, and Sanchez reacted to Coreys direc-
tion from the third-base coachs box by
streaking home to give American a 3-2 lead.
My coach told me the ball dropped; then
I got excited that we scored, Sanchez said.

Graduation seems to agree with former
Stanford outelder Austin Wilson.
Now a prospect in the Seattle Mariners
organization, Wilson has really hit his stride
in June. The right-handed slugger entered
play Tuesday with Mariners Low-A afliate
Clinton hitting 20 for 59 with six home runs
and 20 RBIs on the month.
Sitting on a four-game hitting streak in
which he tabbed two hits in each game
Wilson took a break to y back to the Bay
Area to attend his commencement at
Stanfords graduation June 15. When he
returned to action with the LumberKings
June 20, he picked up right where he left off
with a two-hit game with a homer and three
RBIs.
Its just getting back into the grind,
Wilson said. You cant really act like a
break would hurt you or affect you.
Its no surprise Wilson has settled in as a
consummate pro. He has been under the spot-
light since before he even
set foot on Klein Field at
Sunken Diamond.
Achieving superstar sta-
tus as a two-time All-
American at Harvard-
Westlake High School in
Los Angeles, he even hit a
monster home run at the
2009 Under Armour All-
American Game at
Wrigley Field.
Entering his freshman season at Stanford
having already achieved some modicum of
celebrity status, Wilson said the attention
was of no concern him.
I really cant care about that stuff,
Wilson said. As soon as you care what other
people think about you thats when your suc-
cess goes away.
What was of concern to him was being
mindful of growing into his 6-4 frame.
Wilson said he grew two inches and added 20-
25 pounds between his senior year of high
school and the start of his collegiate career.
I was still working on my swing, Wilson
said. Its still a task. Im still working on
my hands.
Since posting a career .294 average with
20 home runs and 107 RBIs through three
years at Stanford, Wilson seemed to have
reined in high big body. But an injury head-
ing into his junior year cost him precious
playing time going into his draft year. After
experiencing signicant pain the week prior
to opening day of his junior season, he was
soon diagnosed with a stress fracture in his
throwing elbow.
The injury put Wilson out of action for
seven weeks. However, he was able to avoid
surgery and rejoin the team for the stretch run
despite Stanford falling out of contention for
a postseason berth in the nal weekend of
the regular season.
Its going under the knife and we didnt
want to do that, Wilson said. We looked at
the season and if I came back after seven
weeks, we were at a time when we could have
made a push for Omaha. And I thought
myself, at 75 percent, could help the team. I
came back and we didnt make it, but it was
good to be a part of that experience.
It was also the end of Wilsons college
career, as he was drafted in the second round
by the Mariners. It was a high-prole draft
class for Stanford, as it also included the rst
overall pick in the draft in pitcher Mark
Appel.
And this season, Wilson attended his rst
minor-league spring training camp. He also
had the opportunity to sub into a handful of
Cactus League games with the big-league
club.
Since being assigned to Low-A Clinton,
all he has done is hit .302 with 11 home runs
and 52 RBIs on the season entering play
Tuesday. Add to that, he got to graduate on
stage last week with some of his former
Cardinal teammates: Sam Lindquist, Danny
Diekroeger, Lonnie Kauppila, Brant
Whiting, Brian Guymon and A.J. Vanegas.
I was able to walk with my class and get
my diploma and see some of my class-
mates before we all go off on our own path,
Wilson said. So, that was pretty awesome.

OMAHA, Neb. A night after one of
Virginias worst pitching starts of the season,
the Cavaliers got one of their best to force a
winner-take-all game for the national champi-
onship.
Brandon Waddell limited Vanderbilt to ve
hits in his rst nine-inning complete game,
Virginia knocked out rst-round draft pick
Tyler Beede in the seventh, and the Cavaliers
evened the College World Series nals with a
7-2 victory Tuesday night.
Each team will be playing for its rst
national title in baseball on Wednesday night.
I know the bounce back this team has
shown all year long, Cavaliers coach Brian
OConnor said. You know when you go
through a season with a team, you start to learn
and understand what theyre made of and what
the ber of a team is. I told the team after the
game last night that there is no panic in this
ballclub. Come out tonight and play a great
ballgame, and wed have a chance to win.
Virginia (53-15) forced the third game after
Vanderbilt (50-21) rode a nine-run third inning
against Nathan Kirby to a 9-8 victory
Monday. Projected starting pitchers are Josh
Sborz (6-4) for Virginia against Carson Fulmer
(7-1).
Waddell (10-3), who pitched a solid seven
innings with no decision against TCU a week
ago, was even better against the Commodores.
He basically suffocated our offense for most
of the night, Vandy coach Tim Corbin said.
The sophomore left-hander didnt allow a hit
in the fth through eighth innings and retired
12 in a row before he issued a walk with two
outs in the ninth.
I didnt know how long Id be in the game,
Waddell said. I tried to keep going until they
told me to stop.
Waddell didnt stop until he threw 115 pitch-
es and Rhett Wiseman had grounded out to end
the game. Teammates rushed out of the dugout
to congratulate him for his rst conventional
complete game. He was credited with one for
going six innings in a rain-shortened game
against Monmouth in March, and it was the
Virginia staffs third of the season.
I felt good from the start, Waddell said. I
felt in the beginning I was trying to do too
much, put too much behind the ball, spraying
it here and there. I settled in later in the game.
I put the pitches where I needed to.
Kenny Towns and John La Prise drove in two
runs apiece, and the Cavaliers nished with 13
hits against Beede (8-8) and three relievers.
Virginia has a total of 15 runs and 28 hits the
last two games.
There is a lot of real athletic skill in that
lineup, OConnor said. Just the ability of
guys to get down the line and the pressure that
puts on inelders through most of our lineup.
The Cavaliers turned a 2-1 decit entering
the sixth inning into a 6-2 lead at the end of
the seventh.
Brandon Downes drove in Virginias third
run of the sixth when his y ball to center
glanced off the heel of John Norwoods glove
for a triple. Towns third two-out single of the
game brought in two more runs in the seventh.
Through ve innings, Beede looked sharp in
limiting the Cavaliers to one run on three hits
and two walks. The 14th overall draft pick by
the San Francisco Giants had been struggling
with his control and didnt make it out of the
fourth inning in his previous CWS start
against UC Irvine.
He left with two outs in the seventh after
allowing six runs on 10 hits and three walks.
Execution was a little poor the third and
fourth times through the lineup, Beede said.
I was working with only two pitches, fastball
and changeup. It was kind of 50-50. They were
nding holes. Theyre a talented hitting
team.
Vanderbilt third baseman Tyler Campbell
sustained a mouth cut when Mike Papi put a
hard shoulder into him as he was tagged out
during a ninth-inning rundown. After Papi
jogged back to his dugout, Vanderbilt fans
chanted Throw him out! Papi stayed in the
game.
The Cavaliers will be playing for the
Atlantic Coast Conferences rst national title
in baseball since Wake Forest in 1955.
Vanderbilt will be going for the Southeastern
Conferences fourth championship in six
years.

ble digits. Justise Winslow of Houston had
20 points and 10 rebounds for the United

Overall, the U.S. won its ve games by an
average of just under 57 points.
Big Ten advocates
four-year scholarships
The Big Ten says it supports guaranteed
four-year scholarships and improved med-
ical coverage for its athletes.
The league announced in a statement
signed Tuesday by its 14 presidents that it
proposes working within the NCAA struc-
ture to provide greater academic security for
its athletes by guaranteeing scholarships
for four years, even if an athlete can no
longer compete or has left for a profession-
al career.
The Big Ten also would like to provide
more consistent medical coverage and
ensure its athletes are compensated for the
full cost of their college education rather
than just tuition, fees and room and board.

MIAMI LeBron James delivered his mes-
sage loud and clear, without actually saying a
word.
Hes willing to leave Miami, if thats what
it will take to win more championships. And
what happens next will likely be up to not
just the Heat, but Dwyane Wade and Chris
Bosh as well.
Through his agent, James informed the
Heat on Tuesday that he has decided to opt out
of the nal two years of his contract, a move
that means he becomes a free agent on July 1.
He will be able to sign with any team, includ-
ing Miami, and Heat President Pat Riley said
he fully expected James to take advantage
of his early termination option.
We look forward to sitting down with
LeBron and his representatives and talking
about our future together, Riley said.
The Heat have been preparing for this for
some time. James, Wade
and Bosh all got six-year
contracts when they
teamed up in Miami in July
2010, the last time free
agency was accompanied
by the sort of frenzy that
will envelop the league
over the next few weeks.
But each of those deals
came with options to
leave either this summer or in 2015, in part to
allow both the players and the team to have
nancial exibility.
James who averaged 27.1 points this
past season was owed $42.7 million for the
next two seasons, though that seems irrele-
vant in the sense that hell be getting plenty
of money from the Heat or someone else for
years to come. If he stays with Miami, he
could sign a deal that would give the team
room to maneuver within the structures of the
salary cap and luxury-tax threshold.
So could Wade and Bosh, if they choose to
opt out as well and if both do, Miami would
potentially have plenty of cash to spend on
roster upgrades. Neither has announced their
plans, though both have previously said they
want to remain in Miami.
No news here yet, Wade said Tuesday.
James stayed silent as well, with agent Rich
Paul being the one who informed the Heat of
the four-time NBAMVPs plan. But last week,
while still dealing with the sting of losing the
NBAFinals to San Antonio, James expressed
how enticing the idea of exibility is to him.
Being able to have exibility as a profes-
sional, anyone, thats what we all would like,
James said last week. Thats in any sport, for
a football player, a baseball player, a basket-
ball player, to have exibility and be able to
control your future or your present. I have a
position to be able to do that. ... Theres a lot
of times that youre not in control of your
future as a professional.
Hes in control now. He turns 30 next sea-
son. He might just be entering his prime.
James said last week that he, Wade and Bosh
owed it to one another to have a conversation
before deciding where to play going forward.
It is unclear if those discussions have taken
place.
And while James opting out was largely
expected, the ripple effect of the move was
seen all over the sports world.
The NFL, on its Twitter account, posted a
photo of James dunking a football over the
crossbar at the stadium his beloved Dallas
Cowboys call home, light-heartedly asking
him if he wanted to pass some time in a train-
ing camp while making his decision. And
U.S. Soccer, also in a tweet, said it has a new
team for him then attached a photo of
mens national team jersey bearing James
name and No. 6.
Even hockey got into the act.
You know, youd be 6-10 on skates,
someone posted to the Carolina Hurricanes
Twitter account, in a message to James.
For now, all that seems certain is James
sticking to basketball. What team, thats now
up for debate.
James opts to become free agent

solo homer for one of his two hits
and later added a double. Leo
Mendoza also had two hits, driv-
ing in two runs with a double in
the third.
It was a special time for all of
us, said Foster City head coach Ed
Pierce of his teams season. They
fought to the end. I was proud with
what we brought at the end of the
season.
Pacica Americans offense was
just as deadly as the Mets scored
13 runs on 10 hits. Cam Myer had
a huge game, going 3 for 4 with
four RBIs. In addition to his work
on the mound, Andrew Harkness
also had a big day at the plate,
going 3 for 4 with two doubles and
three RBIs. He just missed a three-
run homer in the top of the fth
when his shot to center eld hit
high off the fence, but bounced
back into the eld of play. Thomas
Arnest drove in a pair of runs with
a double, while Payson Jones and
Sam Gonzales each drove in a run
as well.
Despite it being a champi-
onship, both coaches believed the
conditions were ripe for a high-
scoring game.
I kind of gured with a four-
game (single-elimination) tourna-
ment, a lot of pitching gets used,
Len Harkness said.
Said Ed Pierce: I think we kind
of anticipated [a high-scoring
game] a little bit.
Both coaches feelings came to
fruition early. Pacica American
jumped out to a quick 3-0 lead in
the top of the rst inning. Cruz
Thompson led off with a walk and
went all the way around to third on
a wild pitch, scoring when the
throw to third got past the Foster
City third baseman. With the
bases loaded, Myer came to the
plate and roped a two-run single
down the left-eld line for a 3-0
lead.
It was short-lived, however, as
Foster City came back with three
of its own in the bottom of the
inning. With two outs, Ng singled
and Chong followed with a two-
run blast to straight-away center
eld to cut the Mets lead to 3-2. It
was tied two pitched later when
Lopeti Pierce launched a solo
homer to almost the exact same
spot as Chongs .
They [the Red Sox] were on
re, Len Harkness said. When
they scored three in the rst I said,
Wow! Were going to have to earn
this thing.
Pacifica American retook the
lead in the top of the third, with
Arnest driving in Evan Ansgarius
and Myer with a double to the
right-center eld gap.
Foster City came right back to
take the lead in the bottom of the
inning with three runs. Scoeld
scored on a Chong groundout,
while Lopeti Pierce and Joey
Borges scored on Mendozas dou-
ble to the fence in left to put the
Red Sox up 6-5.
The Mets responded with a four-
spot in the fourth inning to take a
9-6 lead. Andrew Harkness drove
in the rst run of the inning with a
double, Jones hit a sacrice y to
drive Azzopardi and Myer drove in
Harkness and Ansgarius with a sin-
gle to center.
The Red Sox came back with four
runs of their own in the bottom of
the frame. With two outs, Louis
Alvarez reached on an ineld hit
and Josh Dehoff reached on an
error. Scofield followed with a
three-run homer to left tie the
score at 9. The Red Sox went ahead
when Ng doubled, went to third on
a wild pitch and scored on another
wild pitch to give Foster City a
10-9 lead.
But the Mets would not be denied
their undefeated season. They took
the lead for good with three runs in
the top of the fth to take a 12-10
lead, the big blow being Andrew
Harkness two-run single. The
Mets added an insurance run in the
top of the sixth on a Sam Gonzales
double to right-center eld, driv-
ing in Myer in the process.
It was a good back-and-forth
battle, Len Harkness said. It was
a fun game.

SAN FRANCISCO Alexi
Amarista drove in three runs on
three hits and San Diego handed the
stumbling San Francisco Giants
their 12th loss in the past 15 games,
7-2 Tuesday night.
Will Venable drove in two runs
and Jesse Hahn (3-1) earned his third
straight victory for the Padres, who
won their fth in the last seven
games.
Tim Hudson (7-4) lost for the rst
time at home this season, allowing
six runs four earned on nine
hits over 5 2/3 innings. He walked
two and struck out four.
Hudson has allowed a combined
13 runs over his last two starts after
giving up 19 over his rst 13.
Hudson was 6-0 in his rst 11 starts
against San Diego and has since lost
three of four.
Hahn allowed his rst earned run
in 18 innings when Pablo Sandoval
scurried home on Tyler Corbins
ineld groundout in the fth. He
allowed two runs on four hits over
six innings. Hahn walked one and
struck out a season-high eight.
Hahn retired the rst 12 hitters
before giving up back-to-back sin-
gles to Sandoval and Michael Morse
opening the fth.
Amarista, 1 for 9 against Hudson
entering the game, was hitless in
his eight previous at bats, though
hes 9 for 25 (.360) in his last eight
games.
Cameron Maybin added two hits
and drove in a run for the Padres.
Hudson got three double plays in
the rst four innings before a fth-
inning error on rookie Joe Panik,
his second of the game, helped the
Padres score twice to open a 3-0
lead.
Jake Gobbert, in his rst start
since being recalled Thursday, sin-
gled and Maybin was safe on
Paniks miscue. Amarista doubled in
a run and Venable, who hit a sacrice
y in the third, drove in a run on a
groundout.
Amarista singled home a pair of
runs and Maybin delivered an RBI
single. Tommy Medica added a
pinch-hit home run, the rst of his
career, with two outs in the eighth.
Buster Posey doubled home a run
in the bottom of the sixth to make it
6-2.
NOTES: RHPTim Lincecum (5-5,
4.90) makes the start for the Giants.
Hes 14-6 with a 2.47 ERA in 27
career starts against the Padres. .
Giants IF Brandon Belt (broken left
thumb) ran the bases and will likely
start his rehab assignment Thursday
with the San Jose Giants.

to Curtis Granderson and Chris Young in the
second inning and a three-run shot to Travis
dArnaud in the third. The left-hander went
22 starts without giving up more than one
homer in a game since Aug. 18, with the
Indians.
Kazmir blamed his lack of command on
his troubles, not his rst outing against the
Mets in New York he beat the Mets in
September in Cleveland.
Ive never played in Shea Stadium. Id
never played in Citi Field so its not really
coming back for me, Kazmir said. I think
itd be a little bit different if I had actually
played at the big league level with the Mets
and had a little bit of history in that regard,
but it was just going out here today to take
care of business.
The As second straight loss ended with
reliever Jeff Francis striking out. Melvin
had Derek Norris and Craig Gentry on the
bench but Gentry was given a cortisone
shot in a knee. Norris was out of the lineup
after being hit by a backswing on Sunday.
I wasnt going to use him in that type of
game, Melvin said of Norris.
Colon (8-5) shut down the team that didnt
want him back this year despite an 18-win
season, pitching four-hit ball for eight
innings against the AL West leaders.
Signed by the Mets 10 days after the As
inked Kazmir in December, Colon won his
sixth straight decision. He also singled for
his second straight game, much to the
delight of the 25,751 in attendance.
Just when you think youve got him g-
ured out hes going to throw something that
you have no idea hes going to throw and
thats just a testament to how good he is,
Stephen Vogt said of Colon. Obviously
Im frustrated that we didnt beat him but
obviously it was great to see him.
Colon only faced trouble in the rst when
Yoenis Cespedes followed Brandon Moss
single with a double to the wall in center
eld for the early lead.
Colon gave up a hit to Cespedes in the
fourth and another single in the fth to
Coco Crisp, but he otherwise cruised
through the best run-producing lineup in the
majors.
It feels really good in particular because
its a team like the Oakland As, which for
me right now is the No. 1 team, Colon said
through a translator.
Slumping Mets outfielder Chris Young
also homered off failed closer Jim Johnson
in the fth for only the Mets fth four-
homer game at Citi Field since it opened in
2009, according to STATS.
Granderson and David Wright had RBI
groundouts, and Daniel Murphy added a run-
scoring single for the Mets, who scored at
least 10 runs in consecutive games for the
first time since June 28-29, 2011, in
Detroit. They beat Miami 11-5 on Sunday.
The Mets have won a season high-tying
three straight.
NOTES: The As activated right elder
Josh Reddick before the game. He was 0 for
2 with a walk. Oakland placed first
basemanKyle Blanks on the 15-day disabled
list with a left calf strain. Wright tied a
career high with an RBI in his seventh
straight game. .First base umpire Joe West
was hit in the chest by a line drive but he
barely inched. Up next: Oakland left-hand-
ed Brad Mills (0-0) vs. New York right-han-
der Zack Wheeler (3-7).
OAKLAND
Kershaw pitches Dodgers to 2-0 win over Royals
CITY, Mo. Clayton Kershaw followed his rst career
no-hitter with eight marvelous innings, Adrian Gonzalez
and Andre Ethier drove in a run apiece and the Los Angeles
Dodgers beat the Kansas City Royals 2-0 on Tuesday night.
Kershaw (8-2) allowed six hits and a walk while striking
out eight. The two-time Cy Young winner hasnt allowed a
run in 21 1-3 innings, spanning his near-perfect game
against Colorado on Wednesday the only runner occurred
on an error and his previous start against Arizona.
Kenley Jansen pitched a perfect ninth for his 23rd save.
Danny Duffy (4-7) dueled admirably with Kershaw for six
innings, allowing one run on four hits and four walks. But
the left-hander was done in by a high pitch count, needing a
season-high 105, and was eventually lifted to protect his
surgically repaired shoulder.
Eric Hosmer had a pair of hits for the Royals, the rst with
one out in the rst inning to end any thought of Kershaw
tossing consecutive no-hitters. Otherwise, their offense
was sporadic, unable to string together enough runners to
pose much of a threat.
The Dodgers plated their rst run after Justin Turner tripled
to lead off the game. He scored on a hard grounder by
Gonzalez, which deected off Duffy and toward second base
for what nearly ended up being the games only run.
Ethiers RBI single came off reliever Kelvin Herrera in the
ninth inning.
Duffy needed 29 pitches to survive the rst, and he wig-
gled out of jams each of the next four innings, too. But
while he was gritty enough to keep Kansas City in the
game, a lineup that has struggled to put up runs for the last
week failed him again.

NL GLANCE AL GLANCE
Both starting pitchers showed
up with championship-caliber
stuff. National starter Frankie
Attard went four innings, cruising
through the rst two frames before
yielding single runs in each the
third and fourth.
Hes an outstanding player,
National manager Gavin Sierra
said. Hes a great pitcher hits
his spots. That kids been coming
up for us really big.
National came out swinging in
the rst inning to take an early
lead. Jackson Sierra drew a leadoff
walk and moved to second on a
wild pitch. Then Jake Ratcliffe
promptly delivered a line shot
over the third-base bag for an RBI
double, giving National a 1-0
lead.
Harte quickly overcame his early
bout of wildness though, retiring
the next three National batters in
order to strand Ratcliffe at third
base.
In the third inning, Harte once
again got into hot water. But
Americans ace right-hander sol-
diered through a bases-loaded jam
with some serious strikeout stuff
and a sweet play by his short-
stop Joey Sinclair. Nationals
Dylan Glass led of the inning with
a booming shot high off the left-
field fence for a double. Troy
Condon then singled on a Texas
Leaguer to left to put runners at
rst and second.
Harte buckled down though,
striking out two consecutive
National batters. With the danger-
ous Ratcliffe hitting an infield
pop-up, it looked as though
American was out of the inning.
But the ball was dropped for an
error to load the bases. So,
Sinclair responded by turning in
the play of the game on a cue shot
past the pitchers mound off the
bat of Attard. Sinclair charged hard
on the ball, then had to dive to his
left when the bounder caught a
divot. Sinclair snowconed it; then
from his knees he shot-putted a
throw to second to peg Ratcliffe
on a bang-bang play to end the
inning.
Americans offense then got on
the board in each of the next two
innings. Each run plated by way of
a wild pitch.
In the bottom of the third,
American drew three walks to load
the bases. Then on a wild pitch
that didnt get all too far past
Nationals catcher, Tanelieu raced
home to score the tying run. In the
fourth, Americans Chris Carias
led off with an ineld single. After
Damian Barazza switched places
with him at first on a fielders
choice, Eric Myers doubled to left
to move Barazza to third. Then
with a two-strike count on Trent
Corey, the next pitch went to the
backstop to allow Barraza to
score, giving American a 2-1 lead.
National came right back to tie
it off Americans bullpen in the
fifth though. With right-hander
Trent Corey on in relief, Glass led
off by crushing his second double
of the game. He advanced to third
on a wild pitch and later scored on
an infield single by Jackson
Sierra.
Every game that weve played
[in the tournament] was really
close, Gavin Sierra said. Thats
probably the one thing about this
[team]. The games that weve
played have been really close and I
was pretty surprised we were able
to stay so close with this team.
Because they had the rst bye so
they had a lot of pitchers.
Of the three games National won
through the tourney bracket, two
were one-run wins. It won by
scores of 10-9 over Belmont-
Redwood Shores, 6-3 over Pacica
American and 4-3 over
Hillsborough.
American ran away with the
championship game in their nal
at-bat though. After Sanchez
scored the go-ahead run, American
loaded the bases. Sinclair then
came up with a clutch two-RBI sin-
gle to score Tanelieu and Vasquez.
It was the rst pitch of the at-
bat, Sinclair said. It was right
down the middle at the perfect
speed. I swung at it and I barreled it
up. I hit it opposite eld and two
runs came in.
Samuel Ayeung and Sinclair later
came around to score on a pair on
two more National errors.
With American winning back-
to-back titles, Sinclair enjoyed
his second straight Superbowl
championship. For Harte, howev-
er, it was his rst. Last season he
was elected to the All-Star team,
but could not play because of a
family vacation to Seattle.
I was sad, Harte said. I had to
go to Seattle. We had fun. We saw a
Phillies vs. Mariners game.
But which was better, the
Mariners game or the Superbowl?
Probably this one, Harte said.
We actually got to play in this
one.

England for biting opponents. He didnt conrm or deny bit-
ing Chiellini, but said he was angry that the Italian defender
had hit him in the eye during the game.
These are things that happen on the pitch, we were both
in the area, he thrust his shoulder into me, Suarez said in
Spanish. These things happen on the pitch, and we dont
have to give them so much (importance).

SUAREZ
By Raf Casert
Underscoring a power shift away from
Europe, Uruguay fought and apparently
even bit its way to a 1-0 victory over Italy
Tuesday to move to the World Cups next
round with Costa Rica, which sent England
home without a single victory after a goalless
draw.
South Americas strength was further high-
lighted when Colombia capped its perfect
record in Group C with a 4-1 win over Japan.
Europe did get one team through when Greece
converted an injury time penalty for a 2-1 vic-
tory over Ivory Coast which eliminated the
African team.
The evening excitement though could hard-
ly match yet another controversy to haunt
Uruguay striker Luis Suarez. Around 80 min-
utes in, Suarez and Giorgio Chiellini tangled,
with replays showing Suarez seemingly bit-
ing the shoulder of the Italian defender. It
would make Suarez, amazingly, a triple car-
nivorous offender on the pitch in four years.
It was absolutely clear. There's even a
mark, Chiellini said.
The referee didn't see a bite, and no foul was
called. Uruguay coach Oscar Tabarez only had
eyes on the result. For me, and for all the peo-
ple in Uruguay, we had more important
things, he said.
About a minute later, the decisive goal was
scored on a powerful thrust of head and shoul-
der from captain Diego Godin that somehow
had perfect direction. Italy was down to 10
men since the 59th minute, when Claudio
Marchisio received a red card for putting his
boot into Egidio Arevalo's knee.
It was the second straight time that Italy, a
four-time champion, went out in the rst
round.
Uruguay will now play Colombia in an all-
South American encounter, with Costa Rica
taking on Greece. If anyone had said before
the World Cup that either Greece or Costa Rica
would be a quarternalist, there would have
been precious few believers.
But beyond goals, it also takes upsets like
the runs of Costa Rica and Greece to make a
World Cup truly great. And with each passing
day, the 2014 edition is drawing nearer.
Often chided for being super defensive,
Greece needed to go out looking for a win over
Ivory Coast and did so from start really right
up to the nish. It doubled its total scoring
tally at World Cup tournaments with two
the second coming through an injury-time
penalty that secured a 2-1 victory and sent
much of the crisis hit country into a frenzy,
celebrating its rst passage ever in the second
round.
After Spain already landed back home after a
disastrous defense of its title, Tuesday was
also the day to wave England out, and not even
with a victory. It lost its rst two games and
also failed to deate an ebullient Costa Rica in
a 0-0 draw. The English created several
chances, but the end result was another bitter
setback.
We are so disappointed not to nish with a
victory, but I dont think I have asked for a
much better performance, said coach Roy
Hodgson.
And nally, showing that high-stakes foot-
ball still has time for sentiment, Colombia
gave a few minutes of play to 43-year-old sub-
stitute goalkeeper Faryd Mondragon, making
him the oldest player to compete at a World
Cup.
Faryd has been a very important player for
us ... so we gave him the chance, said
Colombia coach Jose Pekerman.
Mondragon broke the record set by
Cameroon striker Roger Milla, who was 42
when he played in the 1994 nals in the
United States.
Colombia already had a safe two-goal cush-
ion over Japan. And Pekerman needn't have
worried. Even at 43, Mondragon still made
one good save.
Uruguay KOs Italy; Greece, Colombia advance
Prandelli quits as coach after Italys exit
NATAL, Brazil Italy coach Cesare Prandelli says he is
resigning after his team was eliminated from the World Cup
following a 1-0 defeat to Uruguay.
Italy was reduced to 10 men by a red card for midelder
Claudio Marchisio in the second half and Uruguay went on to
score the winner in the 81st minute of Tuesdays Group D
match.
Prandelli, who criticized the red card decision, announced
his resignation at the start of his post-match news confer-
ence.
Minutes later, Italian Football Federation president
Giancarlo Abete, sitting next to Prandelli, announced he was
also resigning.
FIFA needs more vigilance of discrimination
RIO DE JANEIRO FIFAs discrimination task force leader
has called for better prevention of mocking and insulting
incidents at World Cup stadiums.
FIFAvice president Jeffrey Webb tells the Associated Press
we have to be more vigilant and more aggressive monitoring
this situation.
Germany fans were photographed wearing black face make-up
at a match against Ghana.
Fans monitoring group Fare questioned how the fans entered
the stadium with blackened fans, and reported similar incidents
involving France and Belgium supporters.
FIFAs disciplinary committee is deciding whether to proceed
with action against national federations, which are responsible
for fans behavior.
Holyeld weighs in on Suarez
NATAL, Brazil It was inevitable: Evander Holyeld has
weighed in on Luis Suarezs bite.
Television replays appeared to show the Uruguay striker dig-
ging his teeth into the shoulder of Italys Giorgio Chiellini late
in their group stage nale. About a minute later, Uruguay scored
the go-ahead goal in the 81st minute and went on to win 1-0 to
advance at the World Cup, eliminating the Italians.
It may be the most famous sports bite since Mike Tyson
chomped on Holyelds ear during their 1997 title ght.
Holyeld, who has since made up with Tyson, tweeted
Tuesday: I guess any part of the body is up for eating.
Tyson hadnt chimed in yet.

felt comfortable amending the bill was
because he spoke with Khosla, who indicated
he was open to negotiations.
Even amended, the semantics of the bill
stand and if passed, the State Lands
Commission could still acquire a right-of-
way access through condemnation if a com-
promise cannot be met by Jan. 1, 2016.
Hill said he will continue to push the bill
and, although compromises were made, the
goal to reopen Martins Beach to the public
is as strong as ever.
I think the recent events have prompted
maybe a more hands-on approach by
[Khosla,] Hill said. I think its an ongoing
effort and we need to make sure the bill stays
alive and is certainly part of the equation of
Martins Beach.
Khosla bought the property, previously
open to the public for more than 100 years,
in 2008 for $37.5 million and quickly closed
the only access road to the public.
Access battle
The battle to reopen the beach began about
three years ago when a group of surfers were
arrested for trespassing. It went on to include
a civil lawsuit that claimed closing Martins
Beach violated the state Constitution but
shed light on the property originating from a
Mexican land grant favoring Khosla. Apend-
ing lawsuit led by the Surfrider Foundation
alleging Khosla violated the California
Coastal Act by failing to garner permits
before posting signs is set to receive closing
arguments July 16.
Rusty Areias, a former assemblyman and
coastal commissioner who was allegedly
hired by Khosla, has been lobbying against
SB 968 in Sacramento and testied in front
of the Assembly Committee on Natural
Resources last week and in the Judiciary
Committee Tuesday.
Hill said Areias claims theres no need for
eminent domain, as his client wants to nego-
tiate. However, Pete McCloskey, a former
congressman and attorney who testied in
favor of reopening the beach in the
Legislature and in court, said based on four
years of attempts to contact Khosla and his
refusal to testify until Surfrider was forced to
subpoena him in court make Areias claims
hard to believe.
[Areias told] the committee [Khosla]
always wanted to talk. Well that isnt true.
Until this lawsuit was led and this bill, law,
is in front of the Assembly, he hasnt talked
to anybody and hadnt wanted to talk. And I
think the pressure of Sen. Jerry Hills bill or
the lawsuit may have crossed him to, at least
Rusty says, he is now talking to the Coastal
Commission, McCloskey said.
Neither Areias nor Khoslas attorney
Jeffery Essner returned requests for com-
ments.
Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo
Hill said Khosla seems amenable to rein-
stating the same level of access as provided
by the previous Martins Beach landowner;
however, he added Areias and Khosla remain
adamant his property rights as established
by a ruling handed down in a civil court case
last year be acknowledged.
[Khosla] indicated that hes not opposed
to creating access or opening the gate and
creating access to the beach. But hes very
concerned about his property rights and feels
very strongly that the Treaty of Guadalupe
Hidalgo applies, Hill said.
Essner defended an accusatory civil case
led against Khosla last year by establishing
Martins Beach as subject to the Treaty of
Guadalupe Hidalgo, which ended the
Mexican-American war and requires the
United States to recognize Mexican land
grants.
Essner previously said San Mateo Superior
Court Judge Gerald Buchwalds ndings last
year set precedence.
[Buchwald] ruled as a matter of law, that
there is no public right of access to Martins
Beach, Essner said after the ruling.
That case hinged on the property originat-
ing from a Mexican land grant, which was
conrmed by a federal patent and the U.S.
Supreme Court in the 1800s, Essner said pre-
viously. Therefore, Martins Beach never
came within Californias domain, Essner said
previously.
It is unclear if the treaty, that exempted
Martins Beach from the state Constitution,
will have an affect on the California Coastal
Commissions or the State Lands
Commissions ability to forcefully negotiate
to reopen the beach.
Hill said he will take Khosla at his word
and sincerely hopes he continues to work
with the commissions to avoid the possibil-
ity of eminent domain.
Next steps
SB 968 will be heard in the Assembly
Appropriations Committee either July 2 or
Aug. 6. Should it pass, it will then go to the
Assembly oor where it will need at least 41
votes to pass.
If the California Coastal Commission
nds Khosla violated the Coastal Act by fail-
ing to earn mandated permits, Khosla could
be subject to penalties of up to $15,000 per
day for up to ve years.
McCloskey said Khosla forced Surfriders
lawsuit and Hills legislation by failing to
negotiate from the onset. Its about time he
nally consider the publics interests instead
of throwing money at the problem,
McCloskey said.
I think [Khoslas] been accustomed to the
belief that money could buy anything,
including the state Legislature, McCloskey
said. He spent more money hiring lobbyists
and defending lawsuits than talking. And the
arrogance of refusing to go talk for ve years
is of course whats hes up against in court
and the public opinion.
BEACH
sold for development, the city and school
will split the profits.
This is a win-win on both fronts and a
giant win for the community, said Mayor
Mark Olbert.
Olbert and district board President Adam
Rak both said they were excited the two
agencies were able to work together
although each conceded there are still
many steps ahead.
The decision comes ahead of the City
Councils planned June 30 protest hearing
on plans to abandon Crestview as park
land and allow it rezoned for other uses
including possibly a school campus.
Although yesterdays announcement is
tentative, Olbert said it gives the City
Council and residents something more
concrete to discuss Monday night rather
than a less defined idea.
Superintendent Craig Baker formally
proposed an even land trade earlier this
year but city officials balked because the
Crestview site was appraised at $13.4 mil-
lion while the school land was appraised at
$12.4 million. The city also noted that it
did not have the money to improve the
school site into a usable park and field
which would leave it with a less valuable
parcel and no greater playing space.
The city counter-offered that the district
purchase the land for $12.4 million but
was declined.
The last few weeks saw both the City
Council and district board meeting in
numerous closed sessions with vocal
opponent Councilman Matt Grocott
abstaining trying to reach yesterdays
agreement which members describe as a
compromise.
Im generally pleased. Nobody gets
everything they want in this, Councilman
Ron Collins said.
The school district wants to relocate the
charter school to free up space at Tierra
Linda as enrollment grows. Rak said build-
ing on the 4 acres it is now offering the
city was not an option because the district
wants a separate campus and there is
already challenging amounts of traffic in
the area due to Tierra Linda and Carlmont
High School across the street. While traf-
fic is a city issue, Rak said student safety is
the districts purview.
Traffic is one issue Crestview residents
raised at previous city meetings in oppos-
ing a school in the steep neighborhood.
Rak said there is outreach to SamTrans
about a possible bus route and Charter has
talked about encouraging more carpools to
cut down on congestion.
Councilman Cameron Johnson said he
respects the concerns about traffic and loss
of open space and might share them if he
lived near the property but that the City
Council has to look at the good of the
entire community.
Ultimately, though, this decision is up
to the voters, he said.
If four of the five councilmembers
Monday night vote to override any
protests of its plans to abandon Crestview
as park land, the council will place the
question on the November ballot.
The school district must also find a way
to recover the $1.5 million it gives the
city. Rak said the district is speaking to
sports groups about donations.
Rak said the district also needs to con-
tinue talking about alternative campus
locations in case the council doesnt over-
ride protests Monday night or voters in
November dont pass the zoning measure.
The city and school district will split the
cost of the $50,000 election.

Chinese Cuisine
By Sara Moulton
My all-time favorite dessert is cherry pie.
Yes, I rank it higher than any chocolate
concoction you can name. I even like the
gluey, over-thickened versions served up in
diners.
But I admit I felt slightly virtuous when I
discovered recently that cherries are such a
healthy ingredient, rich in vitamins, miner-
als and ber. Naturally, then, I had a lot of
fun whipping up a new version of this
American classic, one that swaps out the
buttery crust for less-caloric phyllo dough,
a strategy that allows the eater to concen-
trate on the succulent fruit.
It wasnt until I began my life as chef that
I understood that cherry pie is supposed to
be made with sour cherries, not the sweet
ones we pop into our mouths like candy.
Why? Because sour cherries boast more a-
vor. Unfortunately, the season for sour
cherries is very short, roughly two weeks a
year.
And then there are those darn pits. Sweet
or sour, you have to pit cherries. But you
have to pit more of the sour ones to ll up a
pie because theyre smaller than the sweet
variety. Back in my restaurant days, Id
have a prep cook do all the pitting. On my
own now, developing recipes for home
cooks, I reach for the sweet cherries, adding
lemon juice and lemon rind to tart up their
avor.
There are of course plenty of kitchen giz-
mos for making easy work of pitting lots of
cherries. Im partial to the kind that does
double duty as an olive pitter. If you dont
own one of these little wonders, the best
method is to whack the whole cherry with
the side of a chefs knife, after which the pit
slides right out. Youve seen chefs on TV
perform a similar operation with garlic.
They whack the whole clove, then easily
pull off the peel. Believe me, it beats using
a paring knife and ending up with all that
cherry esh under your ngernails.
I thicken the filling with cornstarch
rather than flour because I prefer the for-
mers translucence to the latters muddi-
ness. The only trouble with cornstarch is
that it breaks down and thins out if you
boil it for too long, so youve got to
keep an eye on the cooking time. Also, if
you end up using frozen cherries, which
tend to be watery, youll probably need to
increase the thickener.
As mentioned, I kissed off the usual pie
crust in favor of phyllo dough, but I kept
some of the butter, which adds avor and
crispiness. For extra crunchiness, I layered
in almonds ground up with a bit of cinna-
mon-sugar. The nished crust, then, is less
doughy and more akey than the traditional
kind.
Finally, as advertised, these pies arent
served by the slice. Rather, they are mini-
pies, each the size of a mufn cup and
served one per customer. Still, it turned out
that a single cup was a little too mini, so I
ipped the tin over and draped the phyllo
squares on the backside, not the inside, of
each cup. Now theres ample room for
those cherries.

Start to nish: 45 minutes
Servings: 8
For the lling:
1 pound sweet cherries, pitted
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon lemon zest

2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
8 sheets phyllo dough
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Lets talk potato salad. Everyone knows
its good theres a reason its a summer
perennial but that doesnt mean its good
for you. Heres a crafty version that swaps in
sweet potatoes for the more traditional white
potatoes and loses the standard recipes
abundant mayonnaise in favor of a dressing
high in avor and low in fat.
White potatoes have plenty of nutritional
value, but sweet potatoes a good source of
ber thats also high in calcium, folate,
potassium and beta-carotene have them
beat. One caveat: steam your sweet potatoes
just until they become tender. Overdo it and
theyll turn to mush.
Ive cast black beans and corn in support
of the sweet potatoes. I like black beans for
their robust taste and their staying power.
(They do a ne job of lling you up.) Like all
legumes, black beans are low in calories and
high in protein and ber, and they boast an
assortment of important nutrients.
Corn, of course, is in no need of hype. Its
just about everyones favorite summer veg-
etable. But corn is at its best when its fresh,
fresh, fresh! Corns natural sugars start to
turn into starch the minute its harvested.
The challenge is to safeguard its natural
sweetness. If you live near a farm stand or a
farmers market, buy your corn in the morn-
ing, then refrigerate it as soon as you get
home and cook it as soon as possible.
Typically, truly fresh corn is so good you
can eat it raw. Boil it and brush it with butter
and you have a dish t for a king. But
grilling the corn, as we do here, takes it to
an even higher level. Somehow this process
amps up the avor and decreases the need for
fat.
In fact, with the exception of the spray
used to coat the corn before grilling, theres
no oil in this recipe. Howd I manage that
little trick? By composing a dressing so a-
vorful the keys are chipotle, cilantro and
garlic no one notices the lack of fat. The
chipotles (or smoked jalapeno chilies) are
the crucial ingredient. You can nd them in
your supermarket simply dried or in an
adobo sauce. I prefer the adobo, made of
tomato and vinegar, because it adds a lovely
avor of its own. The chilis heat is counter-
balanced with the slight sweetness of the
seasoned rice vinegar and by the sweet pota-
toes. (If you happen to be a cilantro hater,
substitute basil or mint.)
One nal note: Toss the sweet potatoes
with the dressing while theyre still warm,
which helps them to absorb the dressing and
become deeply avored.
SWEET POTATO, GRILLED
CORN AND BLACK BEAN SALAD
WITH SPICY CILANTRO DRESSING
Start to nish: 45 minutes (30 minutes
active)
Servings: 6
1 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and
cut into 1/2-inch chunks
1 clove garlic
1/2 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce
1 small shallot, coarsely chopped
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 cup seasoned rice vinegar
Salt
4 ears corn, husked
15 1/2-ounce can black beans, drained
4 scallions, white and green parts, thinly
sliced
Heat the grill to medium.
In a medium saucepan tted with a steamer
basket, bring 2 inches of water to a boil. Add
the sweet potatoes, cover and steam until
just tender, about 8 minutes. Transfer the
potatoes to a bowl.
Meanwhile, in a blender, combine the gar-
lic, chipotle, shallot, cilantro and vinegar.
Puree until smooth. Taste, then season with
salt. When the potatoes are done, pour half
of the dressing over them, then toss well.
Set aside to cool.
While the potatoes cool, prepare the corn.
Mist the corn with cooking spray, then
grill, turning often, until the ears are lightly
browned in spots on all sides, about 10 min-
utes. Remove the corn from the grill and set
aside to cool until easily handled. Cut the
kernels from the cobs. To do this, one at a
time stand each ear on its wide end, then
carefully saw down the length of the cob on
all sides. You should have at least 2 cups of
kernels.
Stir the corn kernels, beans and scallions
into the potatoes, adding additional dress-
ing as desired. Taste, then adjust seasoning.

The Fourth of July is one of those
holidays when it is hard to resist
playing up the theme in the food. Its
why we make sure plenty of red, white
and blue fruit tarts, flag-inspired cup-
cakes and brightly colored juices and
cocktails always accompany our buf-
fet of the usual hot dogs and burgers.
This year, we decided to carry the
color scheme to our potato salad, too.
And thanks to red and purple pota-
toes, roasted red peppers, cubes of
white goat cheese, and several cups of
blueberries, the American flag is well
represented. This salad also would be
delicious with the addition of chicken
or crumbled bacon. Alternatively, if
tarragon isnt your favorite herb,
cilantro or basil would play nicely.
RED, WHITE AND
BLUE POTATO SALAD
Start to nish: 45 minutes
Servings: 10
24 ounces small red potatoes, halved
or quartered
24 ounce small purple potatoes,
halved or quartered
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
4 tablespoons red wine vinegar,
divided
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/4 cup chopped fresh tarragon
8 ounces goat milk cheddar or gouda,
diced
2 cups fresh blueberries
1 cup diced roasted red peppers
Place the potatoes in a large pot. Add
enough water to cover the potatoes by
1 inch. Add a hefty pinch of salt, then
bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer,
cover and cook until fork tender, but
not falling apart, 12 to 15 minutes.
Drain the potatoes, then spread them
on a rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle
with salt and black pepper, then sprin-
kle with 2 tablespoons of the vinegar.
Set aside to cool completely.
In a large bowl, whisk together the
remaining 2 tablespoons of vinegar,
the olive oil, mustard and tarragon.
When the potatoes have cooled, add
them to the bowl, as well as the ched-
dar, blueberries and roasted red pep-
pers. Stir gently to coat with the dress-
ing. Chill for 1 hour to let avors
develop.

8 small scoops frozen yogurt (optional)
Heat the oven to 350 F.
In a medium saucepan over medium-high, combine the
cherries, sugar, lemon zest and juice. Bring the mixture to
a boil and simmer gently for 5 minutes. In a small bowl
whisk together the cornstarch and water. Add the corn-
starch mixture to the cherries in a stream, whisking con-
stantly. Return the mixture to a boil, then remove from the
heat. Let the filling cool to room temperature.
Meanwhile, in a spice grinder, small blender or the small
bowl of a food processor, pulse the almonds with the sugar
and cinnamon until finely chopped but not pulverized.
Transfer to a small bowl.
Fold the stack of phyllo sheets in half, then fold it in
half again and trim off the edges (reserving the trim-
mings), to produce a stack of 32 squares, each 4 1/2-inch-
es across.
Lay one phyllo square on a work surface, then use a pas-
try brush to lightly dab the square with a little of the melt-
ed butter. Sprinkle a teaspoon of the almond mixture on
top, then set a second square over it. Brush the second
square with a little more butter and sprinkle with another
teaspoon of almond sugar.
Set a third square on top of the second at a 45 degree
angle, forming an 8-pointed star. Top with one last square,
brushing it lightly with butter. Drape the stack of phyllo
over one cup of an overturned muffin pan. Mist the stack
with cooking spray. Repeat this layering process to form
another 7 stacks, also setting them over the muffin cups.
Reserve a little of the almond mixture and butter.
Lay the phyllo trimmings flat and brush them with the
remaining butter. Sprinkle them with the remaining
almond mixture, then transfer them to a small baking pan.
Bake the phyllo shells and the scraps on the ovens mid-
dle shelf until golden brown, about 6 minutes. Remove
from the oven and let cool.
To serve, spoon the cherry filling into the shells, then
top with the crispy scraps and the frozen yogurt, if using.

Student volunteers help assist in the
summer program. The centers volun-
teer coordinator, Kit Rhoades, said the
program is good for kids to get
involved in the community.
Theyre learning the value of giv-
ing back, he said. Theyre coming
here to a place where we really do
good.
Volunteer Daniel Camou agrees with
Rhoades.
I like how they make the people in
need feel like theyre human and nor-
mal, he said. Its not unlike going to
the grocery store.
In conjunction with the summer
lunch program, CALL is offering
Saturday hours at the center, from 9
a.m.-noon, on the first and third
Saturday of each month during the
summer. Pre-registration is not

that might not have better program
than that already exist in the district.
The biggest concern is that theyre
whitewashing what the district already
does, said parent Michele Haussler.
Its just opening up a school that is
actually enriching their investors and
ends up taking public funds away from
local public schools. What theyre
producing, if it was outstanding than I
would be very open to them coming
in, but so far from what Im seeing,
its not happening.
Although the district doesnt know
the full nancial impact, it does know
that if per student funding is $10,000
in the 2019-20 school year, the loss
of 925 students to KIPP will cost the
district about $9.25 million per year,
and the loss of 650 students to
Rocketship will cost the district
approximately $6.5 million per year.
The law requires that district students
have top priority for admission to a
charter school approved by our dis-
trict, but students from other districts
are also permitted to enroll in charters
we approve. It is possible that some
charter average daily attendance
(ADA) will be students from other dis-
tricts, which would reduce the total
loss of ADA from the district, accord-
ing to the district website.
Its a totally valid question to look
into the nancials of the situation,
said Trustee Shelly Masur.
We looked at it at our last board
meeting, she said. Well talk about
it again [Wednesday]. You do your best
to project, but you really have to wait
and see what happens.
The districts superintendent, Jan
Christensen, noted that community
members have a wide variety of opin-
ions about charter schools and that the
district does have concerns about the
nancials.
We have heard local parents testify
in favor of the charters and we have
also heard from community members
who have expressed concern about the
financial impact of the charters,
Christensen said in a prepared state-
ment. We do have concerns about the
nancial impact, but under the law, we
must accept and review charter school
petitions according to certain legal
criteria; current law does not allow for
a school board to deny a charter due to
a negative nancial impact.
Charter support
Meanwhile, charter supporters dis-
agree with Haussler and those
opposed, with Redwood City parents
with children who attend charters in
San Jose noting that the schools have
improved their kids academic per-
formance. Some parents started push-
ing for charter alternatives after com-
ing to the conclusion that the dis-
tricts offerings were not sufcient.
My daughter Sophie got really
behind in school after the stress of
losing her mom to leukemia, said
parent Dennis Aguilar. The teachers
and principal said it would take her
three years to get back on track with
her literacy. Ive worked for two years
to bring these schools to Redwood
City. The district has had plenty of
time to x whats broken.
Another parent, Martiza Leal, start-
ed the campaign to bring charters to
Redwood City after looking for more
school options for her children in
Redwood City.
I found the schools were not per-
forming as well, especially for
Latinos, she said. At North Star
Academy, its very sad when kids are
not allowed to get into the school
because theyre not smart enough. I
took my daughter to Rocketship in
San Jose and tangentially saw the dif-
ference between my daughter being a
district student and a charter school
student. Theyre proven schools
thats what we need here in Redwood
City.
San Mateo parent Ernesto Garcia
pulled his son out of Rocketship in
San Jose because the commute was too
much.
I have to have him back at Park
[Elementary] School, he said. I saw
his way of thinking was different a
Rocketship. He was talking about
going to college.
Concerns
But others are not so keen on the
charters and their potential effects on
the district, including the Redwood
City Teachers Association, which
issued a statement in opposition to
the two charters, noting the district
has proven academically successful
programs which enrich students but
are currently unavailable to all stu-
dents. Former district teacher of 35
years, Gloria Maldonado, who has
concerns that former San Jose mayor
Ron Gonzalez, and a board member for
KIPP, brought the summer and after-
school programs Elevate
[Math]/Elevate [Math] Plus, formerly
known as Stepping Up to Algebra, to
the school district through the
Hispanic Foundation of Silicon
Valley, which received funding for the
programs through the Silicon Valley
Community Foundation. School of-
cials noted that no funding was pro-
vided to the district.
I wish I could have more condence
in the board doing into the right
thing, she said. My greatest con-
cern is Ron Gonzalez is a politician
and I know hes brought a special pro-
gram into the district. Im concerned
there is a quid pro quo there. Im won-
dering if he has investments. Many of
the parents who came to ask for more
choices have already been fortunate to
get their choice in a school. Those
other children will have even less
choice the one choice they have is
to hope they are accepted to the char-
ter.
Although Masur said Tuesday it
would not be appropriate to comment
before going into the meeting since
the board is voting Wednesday, she
refuted Maldonados concerns about
Gonzalez.
Its a separate issue, she said. Its
completely unrelated to the charter
school issue.
Still, Maldonado noted the thing
she knows has happened is that char-
ters can drain the district of millions
of dollars. She predicts 40 teachers
will be cut from the district as a result
of the new schools.
Charters come in and promise a
lot, she said. They drain the district
of money and the results are not what
they say theyre going to be. People
have a right to choose. My concern is
theres always someone who is going
to be a gatekeeper keeping kids out.
Youre in a sense resegregrating. I
dont think they will take special
needs students; research shows they
eliminate those students from their
schools.
Space needs
In addition to the loss of per student
funding, the district is required by law
to provide physical space for the
schools if they request space in accor-
dance with a specic legal process.
The district may impose certain
charges for use of the physical space
provided. While these amounts are
less than fair market rent, they do off-
set some of the costs to the district.
Exact costs would have to be deter-
mined. Rocketships petition states
that it does not intend to request space
from the district; nonetheless, if
requested, the district would have to
provide it. KIPP plans to request space
from the district.
If the district approves the charters,
it has until November to submit a
request for a district facility for the
following school year. The district
would then conduct an analysis of
space options, and work with the char-
ter to identify an appropriate space.
Although the district is not required to
provide a specic facility requested by
a charter school, it must provide space
that is sufcient to house the resident
district students who attend the charter
in space that is reasonably equiva-
lent to the type of space they would
have in a regular district program.
The votes take place 6 p.m.

could lose out on an opportunity if you are too quick to
accept the rst opinion that comes along.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You have great ideas, but
you may nd your estimates way off target. Before you
do any spending, make a realistic outline to determine
what your budget can withstand.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Your ideas will not go
over well with everyone. Be prepared to defend your
actions and prove your methods to all opponents. Dont
hesitate, or you will be questioned.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Travel and learning
experiences will go hand-in-hand today. Life-altering
changes can be made if you are open to new and
untraditional concepts, information and philosophies.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Get serious about your
nancial situation. You can make the most of your
future by building a solid base. Go back to the drawing
board and nd new ways to bring in more cash.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) Dont use
past problems as an excuse for current difculties.
Whats done is done, so face the facts and deal with
whatever is holding you back.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You will have to
protect your reputation and your assets. Be wary of
someone who tries to take advantage of your good
will. Charity begins at home.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) Its a great day to
spice up your life. Spend time shopping for something
that will make you feel and look good. A little
condence can go a long way.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) Problems with a
personal or professional partner will escalate if left to
fester. Make the rst move by being honest and direct
about your feelings or concerns.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) Love and romance
should highlight your day. You will receive some
compelling new information that will help you make an
important, life-changing decision.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Dont spend a lot of
money on over-the-counter enhancement products.
A condent air and a pleasing disposition will get you
further ahead than anything you can buy.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) If you dont have a full
grasp of what is going on, ask someone who does.
Trying to guess your way into or out of a situation will
get you nowhere.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
ANNE M. PAYE
Case Number: 124554
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: Anne M. Paye. A Peti-
tion for Probate has been filed by Amy
Paye Venuto in the Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo. The
Petition for Probate requests that Amy
Paye Venuto be appointed as personal
representative to administer the estate of
the decedent.
The petition requests the descedants will
and codicils, if any, be admitted to pro-
bate. The willand any codicils are availa-
ble for examination in tehfile kept by the
court.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ister the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: July 11, 2014 at
9:00 a.m., Dept. 28, Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo, 400
County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063.
If you object to the granting of the peti-
tion, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hear-
ing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent cred-
itor of the decedent, you must file your
203 Public Notices
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representa-
tive, as defined in section 58(b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal de-
livery to you of a notice under section
9052 of the California Probate Code.
Other California statutes and legal au-
thority may affect your rights as a cred-
itor. You may want to consult with an at-
torney knowledgeable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.

WORLD 31

MILLBRAE I
recently read an
article in the trade
journal American
Funeral Director
about the famous
quote by the late
Sir William Ewart
Gladstone, the celebrated English four term
Prime Minister who was known for his
colorful oratories and speeches on the floor
of Parliament. This 19
th
century statesman
was renowned for many unique sayings, but
he is most noted among Funeral Directors
for saying this: Show me the manner in
which a nation cares for its dead, and I will
measure with mathematical exactness the
tender mercies of its people, their respect for
the laws of the land and their loyalty to high
ideals. This quote is very lyrical and well
thought out. It has become a long time
custom for many Funeral Homes to display
this quote on a plaque for all to see. The
meaning is obvious and is a direct
comparison between caring for our fallen
loved ones and the way we care for
ourselves, our community and our society.
To many observers it may appear that
weve lost the motivation to care for our
loved ones in a proper way, and that our
society has become misguided. Taking into
consideration the way our government
leaders sometimes act, without the maturity
to function unselfishly, is disturbing, and the
reasons they got elected can be alarming.
Also, in the eyes of logical people violence
should be against our nature, but seemingly
is embedded in our way of life. It is topsy-
turvy for a culture to view cruelty and tribal
brutality as a form of normality, and for love
to be viewed as an obscenity.
Yes, some say our society is falling apart,
but looking at the overall big picture I see
most people yearning to live a peaceful and
courteous life with those around them. Most
people are not violent. Most people want to
be accepted. Most people want to be happy.
Remember that hate is taught.
Wouldnt it make more sense for love to
be taught? Teaching youngsters to be
curious and to enjoy the differences of
those around them would be a good start.
They say that its hard to teach old dogs new
tricks. But old dogs will not be here forever,
and with effort every young dog could be
cultivated with ideals for supporting others
with respect. Putting this into practice may
seem daunting, but its not impossible and
over time could be valuable for our future.
Humanity has always been burdened with
a good percentage of bad guys. But, all in
all, the ideals that the majority of us value
and strive to promote, life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness, are shared in our core.
Going back to Gladstones quote, I see
the vast majority of the families we serve at
the CHAPEL OF THE HIGHLANDS
deeply committed to doing the right thing
for their loved ones. They come to us with a
desire for closure and to enact final tributes
for those theyve cherished. Whether public
or private their feelings are similar, and
showing one last bit of proper care is their
goal. For me this is a sign of hope, showing
that overall we are a society of good people
with a nature to live in harmony and peace.
If you ever wish to discuss cremation,
funeral matters or want to make pre-
planning arrangements please feel free to
call me and my staff at the CHAPEL OF
THE HIGHLANDS in Millbrae at (650)

in a fair and helpful manner. For more info

Who Or What Is Gladstone And
Why This Is Important

BAGHDAD Prime Minister
Nouri al-Maliki is ready to con-
cede, at least temporarily, the loss
of much of Iraq to Sunni insur-
gents and is instead deploying the
militarys best-trained and
equipped troops to defend
Baghdad, Iraqi ofcials told the
Associated Press Tuesday.
Shiite militias responding to a
call to arms by Iraqs top cleric are
also focused on protecting the
capital and Shiite shrines, while
Kurdish ghters have grabbed a
long-coveted oil-rich city outside
their self-ruled territory, ostensi-
bly to defend it from the al-Qaida
breakaway group.
With Iraqs bitterly divided
sects focused on self-interests,
the situation on the ground is
increasingly looking like the
fractured state the Americans have
hoped to avoid.
We are facing a new reality and
a new Iraq, the top Kurdish
leader, Massoud Barzani, told
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry
on Tuesday in Irbil, capital of the
self-ruled Kurdish region in north-
ern Iraq.
Two weeks after a series of dis-
astrous battleeld setbacks in the
north and west, al-Maliki is strug-
gling to devise an effective strate-
gy to repel the relentless
advances by militants of the
Islamic State of Iraq and the
Levant, a well-trained and mobile
force thought to have some
10,000 ghters inside Iraq. The
response by government forces
has so far been far short of a coun-
teroffensive, restricted mostly to
areas where Shiites are in danger
of falling prey to the Sunni
extremists or around a major
Shiite shrine north of Baghdad.
These weaknesses were high-
lighted when the government
tried but failed to retake Tal Afar, a
mixed Shiite-Sunni city of some
200,000 that sits strategically
near the Syrian border. The gov-
ernment claimed it had retaken
parts of the city but the area
remains under the control of the
militants after a battle in which
some 30 volunteers and troops
were killed.
Government forces backed by
helicopter gunships have also
fought for a week to defend Iraqs
largest oil renery in Beiji, north
of Baghdad, where a top military
ofcial said Tuesday that Sunni
militants were regrouping for
another push to capture the
sprawling facility.
In the face of militant advances
that have virtually erased Iraqs
western border with Syria and
captured territory on the frontier
with Jordan, al-Malikis focus
has been the defense of Baghdad,
a majority Shiite city of 7 mil-
lion fraught with growing ten-
sion.

WASHINGTON Nearly half
of the roughly 300 U.S. military
advisers and special operations
forces expected to go to Iraq are
now in Baghdad and have begun
to assess Iraqi forces in the ght
against Sunni militants, the
Defense Department said Tuesday
as the U.S. ramped up aid to the
besieged country.
On Capitol Hill, senators who
left a closed brieng with senior
Obama administration officials
expressed hope Iraq could soon
form a new government, perhaps
in the next week, facilitating
greater U.S. military action
against the Islamic State of Iraq
and the Levant. Sen. Lindsey
Graham, R-S.C., who attended
that meeting, backed what he
described as an advancing
American strategy.
At the Pentagon, Navy Rear
Adm. John Kirby told reporters
the troops in Baghdad included
two teams of special forces and
about 90 advisers, intelligence
analysts, commandos and some
other support personnel needed
to set up a joint operations center
in the Iraqi capital. Another four
teams of special forces would
arrive in the next few days, Kirby
said.
Those troops, added to the
approximately 360 other U.S.
forces that are in and around the
embassy in Baghdad to perform
security, would bring the total
U.S military presence in Iraq to
about 560.
Kirby also said the U.S. was
conducting up to 35 surveillance
missions over Iraq daily to pro-
vide intelligence on the situation
on the ground as Iraqi troops bat-
tle the aggressive and fast-mov-
ing insurgency.
President Barack Obama last
week announced he would send as
many as 300 advisers into Iraq to
assess and advise Iraqi security
forces. Part of that plan involved
setting up two joint operating
centers one in Baghdad and the
other in northern Iraq, where a lot
of the ghting has taken place.
The teams, largely made up of
Army Green Berets, will evaluate
the readiness of the Iraqi troops
and their senior headquarters
commanders in an effort to deter-
mine how best the U.S. can bol-
ster the security force and where
other additional advisers might
be needed.
Kirby said the initial assess-
ments from the teams could be
completed in the next two weeks
to three weeks, but he said there
was no timeline for how long the
troops would be in Iraq.
I dont have a xed date for
you as a deadline or an end date,
but its very clear this will be a
limited, short-term mission, he
said.
