SAN FRANCISCO Sailors know the
risks and rewards that come with these new
space-age Americas Cup boats that speed
like race cars across the waves.
Still, the death of British Olympic cham-
pion Andrew Bart Simpson during a train-
ing session on San Francisco Bay gives
fresh urgency as they chase the oldest tro-
phy in international sports this summer.
How safe are the boats?
Authorities are hoping theyll have a
good answer once they complete an inves-
tigation into why the 72-foot catamaran
sailed by Artemis Racing of Sweden nose-
dived and capsized Thursday after complet-
ing a difcult maneuver. Simpson, 36, was
submerged under the 7-ton boat for more
than 10 minutes. Efforts to revive him were
unsuccessful, and he was pronounced dead a
short time later.
It wasnt the rst accident involving the
high-performance cata-
marans, which were
introduced as one of
many changes to make
the stodgy old sport of
sailing more appealing
to mainstream sports
fans after Oracle Team
USA, owned by software
tycoon Larry Ellison,
won the Cup in 2010
with a giant trimaran.
Since the new champions always get to
rewrite the rules, Ellison and his world-
class sailors tossed out the plodding sloops
that previously had been sailed in the
Americas Cup in favor of the fast catama-
rans.
Sailing on San Francisco Bay rather than
miles out on the ocean, Oracle envisioned
the 72-foot cats wowing both spectators
lining the shore and TV viewers alike by
skimming across the top of the waves.
The boats have everything to capture the
attention of landlubbers sleek, twin
hulls; a 131-foot sail that looks and acts
like a jetliners wing, improving speed and
stability; and, in a recent development, car-
bon-ber hydrofoils that lift the hulls out
of the water and make them go even faster.
When the boats hook into a breeze, the
ride is exhilarating. Make the slightest
mistake or push the boat too hard and it can
all go wrong.
Americas Cup organizers said Friday it
was unclear what impact the fatality might
have on the series of races scheduled to
begin on July 6.
Nothing is off the table, said Stephen
Barclay, chief executive of the Americas
Cup Event Authority. We need to know
what happened.
Another organizing ofcial, Iain Murray,
said conditions Thursday afternoon were
typical on San Francisco Bay, which often
sees hard-blowing winds. Artemis was
operating in winds of 15 to 20 knots, with
occasionally stiffer gusts.

OAKLAND After only two days in
the job, Oaklands acting police chief
stepped down on Friday and was
replaced by an interim chief as part of
a major management shake-up of the
beleaguered department.
Acting Chief Anthony Toribio said
he had voluntarily decided to leave the
top post and assume the rank of cap-
tain less than 48 hours after Mayor
Jean Quan named him to take over for
retiring Chief
Howard Jordan.
Toribio had been
a deputy chief and
took over when
Jordan made the
stunning announce-
ment on Wednesday
that he was taking a
leave and seeking a
medical retirement
after being named
chief less than two years ago.
Deputy Chief Sean Whent was quick-
ly sworn in Friday as interim chief.
Whent, a 17-year veteran, has served
in the departments internal affairs and
criminal justice divisions.
He became the third leader of the
department this week and the fourth in
less than two years.
The move came as the city continues
to deal with one of the nations worst
violent crime rates and with long-
standing skepticism about the police
departments performance as it tries to
avoid sanctions and a possible federal
takeover.

WASHINGTON Worldwide levels of the
chief greenhouse gas that causes global
warming have hit a milestone, reaching an
amount never before encountered by
humans, federal scientists said Friday.
Carbon dioxide was measured at 400 parts
per million at the oldest monitoring station
which is in Hawaii sets the global bench-
mark. The last time the worldwide carbon
level was probably that high was about 2
million years ago, said Pieter Tans of the
National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration.
That was during the Pleistocene Era. It
was much warmer than it is today, Tans
said. There were forests in Greenland. Sea
level was higher, between 10 and 20 meters
(33 to 66 feet).
Other scientists say it may have been 10
million years ago that Earth last encoun-
tered this much carbon dioxide in the atmos-
phere. The first modern humans only
appeared in Africa about 200,000 years ago.
The measurement was recorded Thursday
and it is only a daily gure, the monthly and
yearly average will be smaller. The number
400 has been anticipated by climate scien-
tists and environmental activists for years
as a notable indicator, in part because its a
round number not because any changes in
man-made global warming happen by reach-
ing it.
Physically, we are no worse off at 400
ppm than we were at 399 ppm, Princeton
University climate scientist Michael
Oppenheimer said. But as a symbol of the
painfully slow pace of measures to avoid a
dangerous level of warming, its somewhat
unnerving.
CO2 levels set record
RUETERS
Scientists are struggling to explain a slowdown in climate change that has exposed gaps in
their understanding and dees a rise in global greenhouse gas emissions. Often focused on
century-long trends, most climate models failed to predict that the temperature rise would
slow, starting around 2000.

Anew two-day festival to showcase down-
town San Mateo called SummerFest is
planned for next month that will feature
cooking demonstrations from the areas top
chefs, live music and bistro-style cafes.
It will be held on the same weekend in
June as the old Wine Walk was held before
the Downtown San Mateo Association
decided last year to push that event to
September after skipping it in 2011.
Going forward, the DSMA hopes that
SummerFest becomes a popular annual
event while it looks to hold at least two
Wine Walks or more a year on a much small-
er scale than in years past, said DSMA
Executive Director Jessica Evans.
SummerFest will be a family-friendly
event more akin to the former Festa Italiana
celebration than to the more adult-oriented
wine event, Evans said.
This is an event that will keep the focus
on downtown and I like the focus on fami-
lies, Mayor David Lim said. Its a great
idea.
Many merchants, vendors and food
booths have already signed up for
SummerFest, Evans said.
It will also feature a
large area with bounce
houses, small mechanical
rides, games and a play
area for children. It will
be held on B Street
between Baldwin and
Sixth avenues between
10 a.m. and 6 p.m. on
both Saturday and Sunday
and will be free to enter.
As SummerFest will be spread out over
two days over about 16 hours, the Wine
Walk is typically a one-evening event for
about four hours that charges an entry fee.
Wine Walk can attract several thousand
people to downtown but when so many peo-
ple do so much drinking in a short amount

Woman hits cop
to kick smoking habit
SACRAMENTO Think youve heard of
every way possible to quit smoking? Etta
Mae Lopez came up with a new one: slap a
cop and go to jail, where smoking isnt
allowed.
Lopez smacked Sacramento County sher-
iffs Deputy Matt Campoy in the face
Tuesday as he left the main jail at the end of
his shift. He grabbed her and took her inside
the jail, where she slapped his arm as soon
as he turned her loose.
Once she was handcuffed, the 5-foot 1-
inch Lopez told Campoy she picked him
because he was in uniform and she wanted to
make sure she struck a law enforcement of-
cer.
She waited all day for a deputy to come
out because she knew if she assaulted a
deputy she would go to jail and be inside
long enough to quit her smoking habit,
Campoy told The Sacramento Bee.
The deputy said he tried to sidestep Lopez
as he left the jail through the usual gather-
ing of family members who linger outside
the facility a few blocks from the state
Capitol.

WASHINGTON Caught between nerv-
ous Democrats and emboldened
Republicans, President Barack Obama on
Friday stepped up the sales pitch on his
health care overhaul as the nal elements of
his top domestic achievement go into effect.
With his legacy and the laws success at
stake, Obama said: The law is here to stay.
Behind the scenes, the White House read-
ied a campaign-style effort to get healthy
young people to sign up for the insurance
exchanges in order to keep premium costs
from skyrocketing. On Capitol Hill, House
Republicans are planning yet another vote
to try to try to repeal the law.
The insurance exchanges are the center-
piece of the landmark overhaul of the
nations health insurance system and the
White House mobilization is crucial to the
success of the health care law and, by exten-
sion, to Obamas place in history as the rst
president in decades to expand health care
coverage.
Theres a lot that this law is already
doing for Americans with insurance,
Obama said during a Mothers Day-themed
event at the White House. Theres a lot
more thats going to happen for folks who
dont have insurance.
But he cautioned: We still have a lot of
work to do in the coming months to make
sure more Americans can buy affordable
health coverage.
And he urged the public not to be swayed
by what he said were scare tactics from crit-
ics of the law who might blame it for rising
premiums.
Dont be bamboozled, he said.
Underscoring the policy and political
consequences, the White House plans to
employ both the resources of government
as well as those of his recongured political
operation as it aimed to enroll 7 million
people in health insurance exchanges
between Oct. 1 and the end of March. The
goal is to get 30 million people to sign up
within ve years.
Moreover, the composition of those
signing up for the new exchanges matters
just as much as the overall totals. In order to
keep premium costs down, ofcials say they
must register 2.7 million healthy people
between the ages of 18 and 35 in order to
counteract the costs of ensuring seniors and
people with health problems.

month, after weeks of largely treating the
blast as an industrial accident.
The announcement came the same day fed-

materials belonging to a paramedic who
helped evacuate residents the night of the
explosion. Bryce Reed was arrested early
Friday on a charge of possessing a destruc-
tive device, but law enforcement ofcials
said they had not linked the charge to the

WASHINGTON Political considerations
inuenced the talking points that U.N.
Ambassador Susan Rice used ve days after
the deadly Sept. 11 assault in Benghazi,
Libya, with State Department and other sen-
ior administration ofcials asking that refer-
ences to terror groups and prior warnings be
deleted, according to department emails.
The latest disclosures Friday raised new
questions about whether the Obama adminis-
tration tried to play down any terrorist factor
in the attack on a diplomatic compound just
weeks before the November presidential elec-
tion. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three
other Americans were killed when insurgents
struck the U.S. mission in two nighttime
attacks.
The White House has insisted that it made
only a stylistic change to the intelligence
agency talking points from which Rice sug-
gested on ve Sunday talk shows that demon-
strations over an anti-Islamic video devolved
into the Benghazi attack.
Numerous agencies had engaged in an email
discussion about the talking points that
would be provided to members of Congress
and to Rice for their public comments. In one
email, then-State Department spokeswoman
Victoria Nuland worried about the effect of
openly discussing earlier warnings about the
dangers of Islamic extremists in Benghazi.
Nulands email said such revelations could
be abused by members of Congress to beat
the State Department for not paying atten-
tion to (central intelligence) agency warn-
ings, according to a congressional ofcial
who reviewed the 100 pages of emails.
The ofcial spoke only on condition of
anonymity because the ofcial was not
authorized to speak publicly about the emails
that still have not been released.
The nal talking points that weekend
reected the work of several government
agencies CIA, FBI, State Department, the
Ofce of the Director of National Intelligence
apparently determined to cast themselves
in the best light as the investigation was just
getting underway.
Ascathing independent report in December
found that systematic failures and leadership
and management deciencies at senior lev-
els of the State Department meant that secu-
rity was inadequate for Benghazi and grossly
inadequate to deal with the attack that took
place.

WASHINGTON The Internal Revenue
Service apologized Friday for what it
acknowledged was inappropriate target-
ing of conservative political groups during
the 2012 election to see if they were vio-
lating their tax-exempt status.
IRS agents singled out dozens of organi-
zations for additional reviews because they
included the words tea party or patriot
in their exemption applications, said Lois
Lerner, who heads the IRS division that
oversees tax-exempt groups. In some
cases, groups were asked for lists of
donors, which violates IRS policy in most
cases, she said.
The agency led at the time by a Bush
administration appointee blamed low-
level employees, saying no high-level
ofcials were aware. But that wasnt good
enough for Republicans in Congress, who
are conducting several investigations and
asked for more.
I call on the White House to conduct a
transparent, government-wide review
aimed at assuring the American people that
these thuggish practices are not under way
at the IRS or elsewhere in the administra-
tion against anyone, regardless of their
political views, said Senate Republican
leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky.
White House spokesman Jay Carney
declared it was indeed inappropriate for the
IRS to target tea party groups. But he
brushed aside questions about whether the
White House itself would investigate.
Instead, Carney said the administration
expects a thorough investigation by the
Treasury Departments inspector general
for tax administration. The inspector gen-
eral has been looking into the issue since
last summer, and his report is expected to
come out next week, the IGs ofce said
Friday.
Carney said he did not know when the
White House rst learned that tea party
groups were being targeted.
Lerner acknowledged it was wrong for the
agency to target groups based on political
afliation.

Random act of kindness
Editor,
My wife and I went to Dennys on
Airport Boulevard for our 60th wed-
ding anniversary. We didnt realize
they were also celebrating 60 years.
When we told the waiter about that,
apparently the two lovely ladies sit-
ting across from us heard and we did
not realize it. When the two ladies
were leaving, they stopped by and
wished us happy anniversary. When
we asked the waiter for our bill, he
said the two ladies paid the bill and
the tip. In this day and age of disas-
ters and unhappiness, we were so sur-
prised that two strangers would do
this lovely thing. If people would
only realize how quick life is, we
could all be kind and helpful when
needed.

Spare us more
of Locastos history
Editor,
Joseph Locasto has again managed
to publish his misleading assertion
that 93 percent of Germans and
Austrians voted for Adolf Hitler
(Letters, from the April 16 edition of
the Daily Journal). Hitler got 37 per-
cent of the vote in the German presi-
dential election of 1932. He was made
chancellor by an aging and desperate
Hindenburg in 1933, but the Nazis
only received 44 percent of the vote
in the subsequent Reichstag election.
After a bloody consolidation of
power, Hitler received 90 percent of
the vote in a yes-no plebiscite fol-
lowing President Hindenburgs death
in 1934. Austrian voters had no say
in any of this.
I doubt that Mr. Locastos Hitler
gun control quote for the rst
time in history a civilized nation has
full gun registration has any more
foundation in fact. German citizens
had been subject to strict gun regis-
tration laws since after the Treaty of
Versailles (in 1919), so its unlikely
that Hitler would have been crowing
about doing it in 1935. Bernard
Harcourt of the University of Chicago
calls this quote infamous and says
that it has been the subject of much
research, all of it fruitless, and has
now entered the annals of urban leg-
end.

Support criminal background
checks on gun purchases
Editor,
While the Brady Law requires crimi-
nal background checks of gun sales at
gun stores, these checks are not
required at gun shows, online sales
and other venues where unlicensed
sellers operate.
Right now in most states, felons,
domestic abusers and the dangerously
mentally ill can walk into a gun
show, ea market or even log onto
the Internet and buy weapons from
unlicensed sellers, no questions
asked.
Congress should require a simple
criminal background check on gun
sales. The Brady Law has stopped
more than 2 million felons and
domestic abusers from getting guns at
gun stores. Now its time to nish the
j ob.
Completing the necessary paper-
work for a background check takes
mere minutes, and more than 91 per-
cent of these checks are completed
instantaneously.
I strongly support the Second
Amendment. However, this right also
requires basic responsibility, and as a
society we are responsible for keep-
ing guns out of the hands of danger-
ous people, like criminals, terrorists
and the unstable mentally ill.
In addition, there are exemptions
from a check between family mem-
bers and hunters and sportsmen who
temporarily want to exchange
rearms while hunting or participat-
ing in sports shooting activities.

S
ociety is only beginning to
understand transgender identi-
t y. For a young person who
feels at odds with the physical gender
that he or she sees in the mirror, there
are major obstacles to be faced in the
world at large, where acceptance is
just about where it was for gay people
30 years ago. Even for those trans-
gender children or teenagers who have
supportive parents and many dont
its not an easy existence.
The state of California and the
California Interscholastic Federation
have stepped up on behalf of these
young people in admirable ways. In
addition to banning discrimination
based on gender identity in jobs and
housing, state law broadly prohibits
discrimination against transgender
students. In February, the federation
adopted a progressive policy, which
takes effect in the fall, under which
transgender students must be allowed
to participate on sports teams of the
gender they identify with rather than
the teams of their physical gender
after a panel reviews each situation to
determine that the athlete truly is
transgender.
But these are still fraught questions
in some places. In some schools,
transgender students are now allowed
to use the bathrooms and locker
rooms of the gender with which they
identify rather than the ones that
match their physical gender; other
schools dont allow it. Transgender
students describe going on eld trips
to school-related camps and being
assigned to sleep in separate cabins.
New legislation would bring clarity
to the situation. Under AB 1266,
schools would be required to provide
transgender students with full access
to facilities and activities in confor-
mance with the gender that they feel
identies them. This wont necessari-
ly be easy; there undoubtedly will be
people who strenuously object to
having someone who is physically of
the opposite sex sharing locker
rooms and showers; others will cer-
tainly argue that if children with the
physical attributes of boys are
allowed to play on girls sports
teams, it will be unfair.
Obviously, these are uncomfortable
questions for some students and par-
ents. But discomfort is not a valid rea-
son to allow discrimination, just as it
would not have been acceptable for
schools to ban gay or lesbian stu-
dents from the bathrooms of their
respective genders 30 years ago.
In the end, this might play out as a
less controversial issue than some
people think; the Los Angeles Unied
School District already has a full-
access policy for its transgender stu-
dents and reports that it has gone
smoothly. Teenagers and young adults
are notably freer of biases about sexu-
al orientation and identity. If the
adults dont make trouble, chances are
that things will be ne.
A level playing field for transgender students
If you dont build
it, they wont come
By Coralin Feierbach
T
his is in response to the May 1 article in the
Daily Journal, What is Plan Bay Area? Region
Adopting Strategy for Future Growth. The arti-
cle states that San Mateo plans to add 10,000 new
housing units by 2040. To paraphrase futurist Paul
Saffo when he spoke before the Council of Cities 10
years ago, San Mateo County is in the
process of loving itself to death.
Peninsula cities are continually
inundated by pro-growth voices from
the San Mateo County Economic
Development Association, the
Association of Bay Area
Governments, building trade unions,
developers and Realtors, building
more new housing proponents, state
legislators and their lobbyists and the Metropolitan
Transportation Commission.
If it were only voices, that would be one thing. But
now the deck is being stacked so if cities dont build
more housing then grant money may not available for
road or other infrastructure improvements. In the post-
Proposition 13 era, property taxes on housing units
have not been sufficient to pay for all city services,
including infrastructure maintenance, used by residen-
tial property owners. So adding more housing comes at
a cost to cities infrastructures a cost that is not
funded by state or regional agencies.
ABAG issues mandates for each city for a number of
additional housing units they must enable via zoning
increases. These mandates have so far not been
enforced, but proposed state legislation may soon
change that. The very qualities that attracted us to
Belmont are threatened.
Will local cities be forced to convert suburban single-
family neighborhoods to urban multi-family condos
and apartments? Will we be forced to sell our open
space to developers to make up for sales tax money the
state can potentially deny us? Will we be forced to build
high-rise apartment buildings and condos along the
transportation corridor as ABAG and MTC wants,
destroying the view of the Bay for many Belmont
households?
With increased development on either side of
Belmont, El Camino Real will turn into a parking lot
while frustrated drivers will use our side streets and
severely impacted Ralston Avenue to get to their desti-
nation. Studies have also shown that residents living
on the transportation corridors are only slightly
more likely to use the available public transit, so even
transit-oriented housing will bring added traffic con-
gestion and an added burden on our infrastructure.
Thirty years ago, brave souls like San Mateo council-
woman Jane Baker and San Mateo County supervisor Ed
Bacciocco (both now deceased) turned down 1,000
housing units (only 280 housing units were allowed to
be built instead) on Sugarloaf Mountain, and created
permanent open space. What would happen today if
Sugarloaf was still on the butcher block? I would guess
that instead of the 280 units it would be more like 500-
600 units, destroying the ecosystem of this precious
piece of property now owned by the city of San Mateo.
And, in addition, the quality of life for surrounding
neighborhoods would be reduced.
Belmont has about 350 acres of open space. Previous
and present councils made that happen with strength,
courage and conviction. Yes, there will be some new
development in downtown Belmont on El Camino Real
but not the kind of massive development some cities
like Millbrae, Redwood City and San Bruno have gener-
ated and San Mateo is about to generate. Massive hous-
ing is not a sustainable solution. New Belmont devel-
opment will be done with care and with consideration
of long-term sustainability, consultation with residents
and in cooperation with neighboring cities as well.
We moved to the San Mateo Peninsula because it was
suburban, not urban. Yet outside agencies continually
pressure us to urbanize. Its time for our voices to be
heard in Sacramento. Let us not die of a thousand cuts.

Big movers

NEW YORK Small was beautiful
this week.
The Dow Jones industrial average
closed above 15,000 for the rst time
on Tuesday, then held above that mile-
stone for the next three days. But an
index of small-company stocks has
been putting the blue-chip gauge to
shame. On Friday, the Russell 2000
closed the week up 2.2 percent, more
than double the Dows gain.
Investors are in love with small
stocks because they stand a greater
chance of surging ahead than large,
global companies do if the U.S. econ-
omy continues to fare better than
Europe.
GDP growth was 2.5 percent in the
rst quarter not spectacular, but bet-
ter than Europe, said Joseph Tanious,
global market strategist of J.P.
Morgan Funds. Europe is sucking
wind.
On Friday, the Dow, an index of 30
large-company stocks including glob-
al giants like IBM and Caterpillar, rose
35.87 points to close at 15,118. 49
after itting between gains and losses
most of the day.
The Dows meager gain of 0.2 per-
cent was trumped by the 0.9 percent
advance in the Russell 2000. The
small-company index rose 8.90 points
to 975.16. Both indexes, as well as the
Standard & Poors 500, closed at
record highs. All three rose for a third
straight week.
The sharp increase in small-compa-
ny stocks is also a sign that investors
are more willing to take on risk. Small
stocks can offer investors greater
returns, but they are also more volatile
than large stocks.
Dow stocks were held back by
falling commodity prices. Exxon
Mobil, Caterpillar and Alcoa Dow
members whose fortunes are tied to the
prices of crude oil and other basic
materials closed down 1 percent or
more.
The price of commodities including
crude oil and gold fell sharply as the
dollar strengthened against other cur-
rencies, especially the Japanese yen.
When the dollar rises against other
currencies, it tends to weaken demand
for commodities. Since commodities
are priced in dollars, buyers using
other currencies get less for their
money when the dollar appreciates,
and they respond by buying less.
Stocks have beneted from record-
high corporate prots. Nearly all com-
panies in the S&P 500 have reported
rst quarter earnings. The average net
income for companies in the index is
expected to rise 5 percent, according
to S&P Capital IQ, a research rm.
The talk at the end of April was
company earnings are slowing and
investors might sell, said Gary Flam,
who manages stock portfolios at Bel
Air Investment Advisors. But clearly
thats not been the case in the rst ten
days.
The S&P rose every day since the
beginning of the month until
Thursday, when it fell six points. On
Friday it closed up 7.03 points at
1,633.70, an increase of 0.4 percent.
Flam speculates that stocks are ris-
ing partly because investors have
shifted from fear to greed.
The last few years, risk was dened
as losing money, he said. The last
few months, its been dened as not
making money.
In another sign that investors were
embracing risk, prices for ultra-safe
U.S. government bonds fell, sending
their yields higher. The yield on the
benchmark 10-year Treasury note rose
sharply, to 1.90 percent from 1.81
percent late Thursday.
The gains in the stock market were
broad. Nine of the ten industry groups
in the S&P 500 index were higher.
Health care stocks rose the most, 1.1
percent.
The Nasdaq composite index was up
27.41 points, or 0.8 percent, to close
at 3,436.58.
Stocks rise for third week in a row

TOKYO The dollar soared above 100
yen for the rst time in more than four
years Friday, driven by aggressive credit-
easing aimed at reviving Japans sluggish
economy and improved U.S. economic g-
ures.
The U.S. dollar rose as high as 101.30
yen, the rst time since April 2009 that the
greenback has traded above 100 yen. The
move lifted Japanese stocks to their high-
est level in more than ve years.
The weaker yen is a boon to Japans
major auto and electronics exporters. The
government said the yens fall signaled
that Prime Minister Shinzo Abes policy
mix of increased public spending and
aggressive monetary easing, dubbed
Abenomics, was proving successful.
Kick-starting the economy has been Abes
top priority since he took ofce late last
year.
With Abenomics, we hope that the
Japanese economy will grow and can con-
tribute to the global economy, said
Yoshihide Suga, the chief Cabinet
spokesman. Its better that stocks are
high than low. We believe this is a sign
that our policies are progressing well.
Japans Nikkei 225 stock average jumped
2.9 percent to 14,607.54, its highest close
since January 2008.
The central banks monetary easing, and
expectations it will help reverse persistent
deation, have helped drive the value of the
yen down by more than 20 percent against
the dollar since October, when it was trad-
ing at around 78 yen.
The yens sustained fall has riled some of
Japans trading partners but generally won
support from leaders of other major
economies eager to see the worlds third-
biggest economy recover from two decades
of stagnation. Abe has pushed both scal
and monetary stimulus strategies to help
Japan end a long bout of deation and sup-
port domestic demand.
Japanese officials have fought accusa-
tions that Tokyo may be manipulating its
currency to give its exporters a boost,
and so far international financial institu-
tions generally have backed Abes
approach.
The yens value is at a reasonable level,
since the accommodative plan of the Bank
of Japan is quite ambitious, Naoyuki
Shinohara, deputy director of the
International Monetary Fund, told
reporters in Tokyo. The easy monetary
policy will cause the currency to depreci-
ate. That is axiomatic, he said.
Optimism about the U.S. economy also
lifted the dollar after several positive indi-
cators were released. The Labor Department
said Thursday that unemployment claims
fell to the lowest level in more than ve
years. And last week, gures showed that
the U.S. economy had added 165,000 jobs
in April, lowering the unemployment rate
fell to 7.5 percent.
Worries began to grow that U.S. econo-
my wasnt doing so well, but in May the
gures improved. So with concerns about
the U.S. easing, the dollar is rising, said
Takuya Kanda, a currency analyst at
Gaitame.com Research Institute in Tokyo.
Dollar rises above 100 yen for first time in four years

NEWYORK The sophistication of
a global network of thieves who
drained cash machines around the
globe of an astonishing $45 million
in mere hours sent ripples through the
security world, not merely for the size
of the operation and ease with which it
was carried out, but also for the threat
that more such thefts may be in store.
Seven people were arrested in the
U.S., accused of operating the New
York cell of what prosecutors said was
a network that carried out thefts at
ATMs in 27 countries from Canada to
Russia. Law enforcement agencies
from more than a dozen nations were
involved in the investigation, U.S.
prosecutors in New York said Thursday.
Unfortunately these types of cyber-
crimes involving ATMs, where youve
got a ash mob going out across the
globe, are becoming more and more
common, said Rose Romero, a former
federal prosecutor and regional director
for the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission.
I expect there will be many more
of these types of crimes, she said.
Brooklyn U.S. Attorney Loretta
Lynch, who called the theft a massive
21st-century bank heist, announced
the case Thursday in New York.
Heres how it worked:
Hackers got into bank databases,
eliminated withdrawal limits on pre-
paid debit cards and created access
codes. Others loaded that data onto any
plastic card with a magnetic stripe
an old hotel key card or an expired
credit card worked ne as long as it car-
ried the account data and correct access
codes.
Anetwork of operatives then fanned
out to rapidly withdraw money in mul-
tiple cities, authorities said. The cells
would take a cut of the money, then
launder it through expensive purchases
or ship it wholesale to the global ring-
leaders. Lynch didnt say where they
were located.
True Religion Apparel
agrees to $826M buyout offer
VERNON True Religion Apparel,
best known for its high priced denim,
has agreed to a buyout offer of about
$826 million from the investment
management rm TowerBrook Capital
Partners LP.
The announcement Friday comes
seven months after True Religion said
it was exploring strategic options.
Like many high-end jean companies,
True Religions business suffered in
recent years as recession-scarred shop-
pers no longer wanted to pay $200 for
a pair of jeans.
In March, its CEO Jeff Lubell
stepped down and was named chairman
emeritus and a creative consultant.
TowerBrook Capital has previously
invested in companies including
designer shoe marketer Jimmy Choo
and athletic apparel retailer Odlo but
has since sold those stakes.
It has agreed to pay $32 per share for
True Religion, a 9 percent premium to
its closing price of $29.44 on
Thursday.
At this critical inection point in
our business, global growth and prod-
uct development effort, TowerBrooks
support and experience will be a true
differentiator, Lynn Koplin, the inter-
im CEO and president of True Religion,
said in a statement.

Carlmonts Matt Seubert slides safely into home, scoring on a Tanner Westmoreland double, during the Scots 12-2 win over Terra Nova.
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The Carlmont baseball team had already
scored three runs in the fth inning to take a
4-1 lead over host Terra Nova when Aaron
Albaum came to the plate. The sophomore
hit a routine grounder to shortstop, which
should have been the nal out of the inning.
But with Albaum hustling down the line,
the throw was in the dirt and Albaum was
safe with another run scoring. That one play
opened the oodgates. The Scots went on to
score seven more runs all unearned,
including back-to-back home runs from
Justin Fink and Jason Marley as
Carlmont went on to a 12-2 victory and
clinch the Peninsula Athletic Leagues Bay
Division title.
A hard 90 is what is expected, said
Carlmont manager Rich Vallero. By doing
all the right things, the byproduct is a W.
Carlmont (10-4 PAL Bay, 20-6 overall)
and Terra Nova (8-6, 19-7) came into the
week tied atop the Bay Division standings.
By the end of Fridays game, the Scots had
outscored the Tigers 24-2.
[The win] means a lot, Fink said. It
closed out the PAL title.
Early on, the game had the makings of a
tight affair. Both starting pitchers
Carlmonts Greg Hubbell and Terra Novas
Julius Raval gave up little through the
rst four innings.
The rst couple of innings in a big game,
youre going to be a little tight, Vallero
said. [Raval] had an unbelievable change-
up. They stymied us the rst three innings.
It was Terra Nova that got to Hubbell rst,
with an unearned run in the bottom of the
third inning. Kobe Christo led off the
inning with a single and went to second on
Victor Guilleras sacrice bunt. Following a
groundout, Anthony Gordon hit a grounder
that went under the glove of the Carlmont
shortstop, allowing Christo to score to
give the Tiger a 1-0.
Carlmont, however, came right back to tie
the game in the top of the fourth. Nick Rich
was hit by a pitch and went to second on a
Johnathan Corvello single. Both runners
moved up on Connor Sicks sacrice bunt
and Rich came home to score on Albaum
sacrice y to deep center eld.

Not too long ago, Serras baseball manag-

viewed the season as a series of chapters.
As of Friday afternoon, the entire West
Catholic Athletic League knows who the
protagonist of that story is.
Center fielder Jordan Paroubeck was
named the WCALPlayer of the Year, beating
out an incredibly talented group of players
in the Central Coast Sections top league.
Paroubeck enjoyed a spectacular offensive

Following Fridays 5-1 over San Joaquin
Delta College in Game 1 of the CCCAASuper
Regionals, College of San Mateo head coach
Nicole Borg was asked if everything had gone
according to plan.
Yeah, we won, she said, sporting an ear-
to-ear grin. That was the plan.
And frankly, thats all that really mattered to
the Bulldogs as they groomed the eld in
preparation for Game 2 of the California
Community College Athletic Association
tournament CSMs rst step towards its
rst appearance in the Final Four since Borg
took over seven years ago was a positive one.
I think we were a little too amped, said
CSM third baseman Selina Rodriguez. They
beat us this year and they beat us last year so
we wanted to beat them. We just kind of came
out too hard. We werent in our zone. We were
too above it, I guess.
We made a couple of mistakes that really
could have cost us, Borg said. Those things
can hurt you. I think overall, we played pretty
good but we have to get better for [Saturday].
The Bulldogs will face West Valley in a win-
ners bracket game at noon Saturday. West
Valley beat Cabrillo 3-1. Apair of elimination
games will follow. The Super Regional cham-
pionship game is scheduled for noon Sunday.
Fridays game against the Mustangs was
billed as a matchup that CSM should have
dominated. And for the most part they did.
behind the masterful pitching of Michelle
Pilster.
But having beat the Bulldogs already this
season, there was no sense of intimidation by
Delta. And for the rst three-plus innings, the
Mustangs carried themselves like they
belonged.
Come the bottom of the third, CSM took
control of the game on offense. Jenn
Davidson led off with a single and Rodriguez
followed with one of her own. CSM shortstop
Kaylin Stewart cashed in a couple of pitches

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The Peninsula Athletic League track and
eld nals begin Saturday at Terra Nova and
while the team titles wont be decided until
the end of the day, there are plenty of
intriguing events of which to keep track.
There are at least ve athletes who will be
going for two titles, while one will have a
chance at winning four championships.
Carlmonts Anaya Alexander could be the
PALs next track star and she is only a
freshman. Alexander was the top qualier in
the 100, 200 and 400, as well as a member
of the Scots 4x100 relay team.
Not that it will be easy. In the 100, her
time of 13.29 was just a few tenths of a sec-
ond faster than Terra Novas Mikalya
Miller 13.36. All nine 100-meter nalists
ran sub-14 second races.
In the 200, only Alexander and Sequoias
Willa Friedl Gruver posted sub-27 races,
with Alexander clocking a 26.13 and Friedl
Gruver coming in at 26.92.
Alexanders best event, the 400, is where
she is expected to shine. Her qualifying
time of 58.90 was over a second faster than
Aragons Alexa Smith. They were the only
two to post sub-minute races.
There are other events shes run for train-
ing, but those are her primary races, said
Carlmont coach Brent Cottong. We are
using the 200 to prepare for the 400. She
pretty much coasted to those times in tri-
als.
Cottong said Alexander will focus on the
400 at the Central Coast Section meet,
where she hopes to qualify for the state
meet. Her season-best of 56.48 is the
fourth-best time in CCS this season.
Westmoors Kylie Goo will be looking to
close out her high school career with a dou-
ble in the 800 and 1,600, where she is the
top qualier in both. Her season-best time
of 2:11.49 is the second-best time in the
section this year. Her main competition in
the 800 should be Menlo-Athertons
Annalisa Crowe, who qualied second with a
time of 2:20.90. Goo posted a time of
2:19.32. Goo should not be touched in the
1,600, however, as her time of 5:16.46 was
nearly six seconds faster than the second-
best time put up by Menlo-Athertons
Taylor Fortnam.
Aragons Savanna Kiefer is the girl to
beat in the 100 hurdles, with the top quali-
fying time and she had the third-fastest time
in the 300 hurdles. Her qualifying time of
16.41 in the 100 hurdles was the only sub-
16 time recorded and is over six-tenths
faster than Sequoias Emma Martino. To
complete the hurdles double, she will have
to chase down Burlingames Greer
Chrisman, who posted a time of 48.07. The
second-place qualier is Woodsides Abby
Taussig at 48.58 the only two runners to
post sub-49 times. Kiefer goes into the
nals with a time of 50.16.
On the boys side, San Mateos Michael
Beery will look to double in the 200 and
400, where he is the top qualier in both.
His qualifying time of 49.18 is nearly half a
second faster than Terra Novas Jeremy
Wrights 49.57. They were the only two
post sub-50 times.
The competition could be a lot tighter in
the 200, where Beery is one of three runners
to post qualifying times in the 22-second
range. Beery ran a 22.74, compared to a
22.88 posted by Menlo-Athertons Zack
Plante and the 22.95 ran by Terra Novas
Clark Tolero.
Menlo-Athertons George Baier will go
for gold in both the 800 and 1,600. He is
the top qualier in the 1,600, but Aragons
Rory Beyer is right on his tail, about half a
second behind. In the 800, Gerardo Castro
of El Camino was the top qualier, with a
time of 1:57.03. Second is Carlmont's Tim
Layten at 1:57.84. Baier will have to do
some work, as his time is nearly two sec-
onds behind those two.
Aragons Jimmy Garcia will join his
teammate Kiefer in trying to win both hur-
dles races. He is the top qualier in the 100
high hurdles and second-fastest qualier in
the 300 hurdles. Garcia was the only runner
to post a sub-16 time in the 100 hurdles,
with a time of 15.93. Hell have to chase
down Menlo-Athertons Kadri Green in the
300 hurdles. Green had the fastest qualify-
ing time of 40.51, the only sub-41 time in
qualifying.
PAL track finals have
intriguing story lines
By Doug Ferguson
PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. The
Players Championship already provides
plenty of theater because of its thrill-a-
minute golf course. Making it even more
compelling is the star attraction of Sergio
Garcia and Tiger Woods, playing in the nal
group on the weekend for the rst time in
nearly seven years.
Garcia made seven straight putts six of
them for birdie on his way to a 7-under 65
to match his best score on the TPC Sawgrass.
That gave him a one-shot lead over Woods,
who again made short work of the par 5s and
posted his second straight 67. Woods broke
his own 36-hole record at Sawgrass by six
shots and cant nd much wrong with his
game at the moment.
Its hard to call it a rivalry because its so
one-sided.
Not only does Woods have a 77-8 margin
in PGA Tour victories (and 14-0 in the
majors), in the previous ve times they were
in the nal group on the weekend on the PGA
Tour, Woods has gone on to win all ve
times.
Asked about the possibility of playing
with Woods on Saturday, Garcia said he
wouldnt see it as anything but another round
of golf.
I dont have to measure myself against
anybody, Garcia said. I know what I want
to try to do, and any given day I can shoot a
round like this and any other day he can
shoot a good round and beat me. Like we
always say, its not a sprint, its a marathon.
So there are going to be good days and not so
good days, so just got to enjoy the good
ones as much as possible.
This was a good day.
Garcia ran off ve straight birdies, ending
the streak with putts from 20 feet and 25 feet,
and then he added a 40-foot birdie putt on the
par-3 eighth. Garcia, who won The Players in
2008, was at 11-under 133.
Woods looks like hes having a good time
on the course that has vexed him more than
any other on the PGA Tour, and he could be
the greater threat on the weekend. He now is
8-under on the par 5s this week, including a
20-foot eagle putt on No. 2 that gave him a
share of lead. Woods took the outright lead
with a short birdie putt on No. 4 until Garcia
blazed by him with his string of birdies.
Woods was asked if there was any part of
his game that made him unhappy.
No, Im pretty pleased with where its at
right now, Woods replied.
The reporter looked at him, waiting for
more. Woods looked back and nally added
with a grin, Did I answer that?
Woods and Garcia have played together on
big stages Bethpage Black, Royal
Liverpool with a big edge for Woods.
They rst were linked when the Spaniard was
19 and gave Woods all he could handle at
Medinah in the 1999 PGA Championship.
They were paired in the nal round of the
2002 U.S. Open and 2006 British Open, the
year Garcia dressed all in yellow.
But with the tournament only halfway
over, this is far more than a duel between
Woods and Garcia.
The 18 players within ve shots of the lead
include three current major champions
Adam Scott, Webb Simpson and Rory
McIlroy along with Lee Westwood,
Henrik Stenson, Steve Stricker, Hunter
Mahan and Zach Johnson.
Westwood chipped in from 100 feet for
eagle on the 11th hole and was atop the
leaderboard until making pars on his last
eight holes. He had a 66 and was two shots
behind, along with Kevin Chappell (66) and
Stenson, who had two eagles on the front
nine in his round of 67.

by one shot over Tiger

By Joe Stiglich
SAN FRANCISCO Matt Cain pitched
eight strong innings and San Francisco
beat Tim Hudson for the rst time in seven
years in the Giants 8-2 victory over the
Atlanta Braves on Friday night.
Cain (2-2) allowed three hits and added an
RBI single during a six-run rally in the
fourth inning.
Hudson (4-2) was cruising until the fourth
when the Giants batted around and scored
six runs. Marco Scutaro had two hits,
including a two-run single during the
inning.
The Braves veteran right-hander had been
6-0 with a 2.48 ERA against San Francisco
since losing to them on April 8, 2006.
Buster Posey had an RBI double, Hunter
Pence a run-scoring infield single and
Brandon Belt an RBI double during the big
inning. Brandon Crawford was intentional-
ly walked with one out to load the bases for
Cain, who stepped to the
plate 0 for 11 on the sea-
son.
He grounded a single
through the right side to
make it 4-0, and Scutaro
capped the rally with a
two-run single to left to
drive Hudson from the
game.
The six runs and seven
hits were the most the Giants have collected
in any single inning this season. It was
Hudsons shortest outing of the season as
he only went 3 2-3 innings.
Brian McCann had a two-run homer in the
fth inning for the only blemish against
Cain. It marked the 26th time an opponent
knocked one into McCovey Cove on the
y, and it was the 88th splash hit overall
since the park opened in 2000.
Cain delivered his best start of the season
despite taking a liner off his hip from the
bat of McCann in the second. He recovered
and chased the ball down by the rst-base
line and got the out.
Not es: Struggling Giants right-hander
Ryan Vogelsong will make his next start as
scheduled Wednesday at Toronto, manager
Bruce Bochy said. There was speculation
that Vogelsong, 1-3 with a 7.78 ERA,
might be skipped for a turn. ... Carlos Tosca
served as the Braves interim manager
Friday in place of Fredi Gonzalez and will do

SEATTLE Hisashi Iwakuma retired 16
straight over one stretch of a solid seven-
inning outing, Raul Ibanez homered for the
rst time in nearly a month and the Seattle
Mariners beat the Oakland Athletics 6-3 on
Friday night.
Iwakuma (4-1) took a one-hitter into the
sixth inning before running into trouble,
putting together another impressive outing
to help cement himself and Felix Hernandez
as one of the top rotation duos in baseball.
Iwakuma has allowed ve earned runs over
his last ve starts, and the number could
have been even smaller if not for a scoring
change that ended up tagging him with two
earned runs against the As.
Iwakuma pitched ahead nearly from the
start after Seattle scored twice in the rst off
Oakland starter Dan Straily (1-1). Seattle
broke the game open with Ibanezs three-
run homer in the third inning that came with
two outs.
Oakland lost its season-high fifth
straight and dipped below .500 since start-
ing the season 1-2. The As fell to 2-6 on
their current 10-game road trip and only
once has Oakland scored more than three
runs.
Overshadowed by Hernandez, the ace of
the Mariners staff, Iwakuma has been nearly
as solid this season. Hes pitched at least
six innings in seven of eight starts despite
being bothered by a lingering blister on his
pitching hand, and has not allowed more
than three earned runs in any start.
Iwakuma gave up a solid leadoff single to
right eld to John Jaso and then was unhit-
table for the next ve innings. He set down
15 straight with remarkable ease, through a
combination of broken bats, weak ground-
balls and lazy ies. He struck out Yoenis
Cespedes to close the rst, struck out Derek
Norris and Jaso in the third and retired Josh
Donaldson and Daric Barton swinging to
end the fth.
Iwakumas streak finally ended at 16
straight retired when Eric Sogard reached on
an ineld single originally ruled an error
with one-out in the sixth inning. His
groundball bounced off the arm of shortstop
Brendan Ryan and Sogard reached without a
throw. Jaso followed with a bloop single,
and the As nally got to Iwakuma on Jed
Lowries two-out, two-run double into the
right-eld corner. Lowrie had just one RBI
in his previous 17 games before the double.
The scoring change cost Iwakuma a
chance to have his ERA dip below
Hernandezs for the best in the American
League. Instead, Iwakumas ERA rose from
1.61 to 1.74. He gave up four hits, struck
out nine and walked none. Tom Wilhelmsen
pitched the ninth for his 10th save.

Game 4 in the best-of-seven series is Sunday in
Oakland.
After falling behind by 10 points entering
the fourth quarter, the Warriors scored the rst
nine of the period in fewer than 2 minutes.
They capped the run by slicing San Antonios
lead to 79-78 when Bogut blocked Duncans
layup, and Draymond Green started a three-
point play by drawing a foul on Duncan with a
pull-up jumper.
Parker put San Antonio back ahead by seven
with a 3-pointer before leaving briey with an
apparent left leg cramp. Trainers wrapped his
leg while he was on the bench and he showed
no signs of slowing down when he returned.
With Parker on the bench, Duncan converted
a three-point play and Leonard added a layup to
cap an 11-1 run that gave San Antonio a 90-79
lead with 5:39 to play.
Most of Golden States yellow-shirt wearing
crowd of 19,596 silenced after Curry came off a
curl and his left ankle which he sprained in

breaking out.
The Warriors moved within ve points on
Harrison Barnes pull-up jumper with 2:48 to
play but never got closer. After starting 3-0 at
home in the playoffs, Golden State fell short
again in maybe the biggest basketball game in
the Bay Area in decades.
The Warriors have not held a series lead
beyond the rst round since the 1975-76 sea-
son, when they went up 2-1 and 3-2 against
Phoenix in the conference nals and lost. That
also was last time the Warriors made the con-
ference nals, though there were only three
rounds in the playoffs at that time.
After trailing for 95 of 106 minutes in the
rst two games of the series, San Antonio had
by far its best start behind its All-Star point
guard.
Parker scored 13 points in the rst quarter on
6-of-8 shooting, including a desperation bank
shot after getting fouled by Draymond Green
that gave the Spurs a 32-23 lead. The largest
lead for San Antonio, which went ahead by 11
points throughout the second quarter, had held
previously was ve all the way back in the
second overtime of its Game 1 comeback win.

the fth as they sent 15 batters to the plate.
Tanner Westmoreland got the party started
when he reached on an error. Kai Haake fol-
lowed with a single and Fink walked the
load the bases. Marley followed with a RBI
walk to give Carlmont a 2-1 lead. Rich fol-
lowed with a fielders choice as
Westmoreland was forced out at home, but
Corvello came through with an RBI single
to put the Scots up 3-1.
Sick also reached on a elders choice
with another out being recorded at the plate
to bring up Albaum. A run scored on the
throwing error to put the Scots up 4-1 and
then things fell apart for the Tigers. Matt
Seubert cracked a two-run single to right and
Westmoreland, in his second at-bat of the
inning, doubled home another pair of runs
to put the Scots up 7-1.
Haake singled to drive home a run for his
second hit of the frame to bring up Fink,
who jumped on the rst pitch he saw and
deposited it over the left-eld fence for a
two-run bomb and a 11-1 Carlmont lead.
Marley then punctuated the inning with a
solo shot, a no-doubter over the left-eld
fence and the Scots were well in command.
We were aggressive putting the ball in
play, making them make plays, put pressure
on them, Fink said of the seven-hit, 11-run
inning. We knew if we got Hubbell four
runs, hed shut them down. They werent
touching him.
Said Vallero: When you go ahead a few
runs and then you can extend it, everyone
takes a deep breath.
That was more than enough offense for
Hubbell, who worked six innings, allowing
just three hits while striking out seven and
walking four.
Hubbell must have cooled down during all
that time in the dugout in the fth because
he ran into his most trouble in the bottom
of the fth. Christo opened the inning by
reaching on an error before Guillera and
Jake Martinez drew back-to-back walks to
load the bases with no outs. He got the next
two batters out on a strikeout and popup,
but an error enabled the Tigers to score their
second run of the game. Hubbell then struck
out the nal batter he faced before Ryan
Hogan shut the door with a 1-2-3 seventh.
A really gutsy performance (by
Hubbell), Vallero said. Hes very poised,
mature beyond his years. Hes been on the
big stage before hes a 20-time world
champion animal caller. We were taking
pregame in practice [Thursday] and he said,
These next 24 hours are going to be bad
(waiting to pitch the title-clinching game).

Half Moon Bay 14, Hillsdale 7
What started as a complex series of poten-
tial tie-breakers at the beginning of
Fridays play wound up having a simple out-
come.
Half Moon Bay is in. Menlo-Atherton is
in limbo.
By virtue of the Cougars 14-7 win over
Hillsdale High School, coupled with
Menlo-Athertons loss to Aragon, Half
Moon Bay secures a fourth-place nish in
the Peninsula Athletic League Bay Division
standings. The top four teams in the divi-
sion earn automatic berths for the CCS
playoffs set for next week starting on
Wednesday.
It worked out great for us, said Half
Moon Bay manager Steve Terraszas.
The Cougars cruised past the Knights in
Fridays PAL nale. Half Moon Bay was
down 2-1 heading into the top of the third
inning.
It was then that the Cougars sent 15 bat-
ters to the plate en route to 10-run inning
that broke things wide open.
The Hillsdale defense committed five
errors in the frame and Knight pitchers
issued six walks.
The Cougars scored those 10 runs on just
two hits the biggest was a three-run
bomb courtesy of Mike Rupert.
SCOTS
on an opposite-eld line drive.
After an out, Talisa Fiame, arguably the
Bulldogs hottest hitter as of late, continued
her torrid pace with a double to the opposite
eld that plated Stewart easily. Fiame scored
two batters later when Natalie Saucedo singled
up the middle. Saucedos knocked sent the
Delta starter to the bench.
I think their intensity level and adrenaline
is exactly where it needs to be, Borg said.
Its not too high or too low. I think theyre
pretty comfortable where theyre at and they
really have a goal of making it all the way
though. They know they have to play their
best because its a really tough bracket.
From there, the lead was never really com-
promised thanks to Pilster. The CSM ace made
one mistake in her seven innings of work.
With one out in the fourth, Jazmine Berry
took her deep and out to make it 4-1.
But that was pretty much all the offense
Delta would muster the entire afternoon.
She did a good job, Borg said. You never
want to see a ball leave the park, especially
after your team gives you a four-run lead. That
changes the momentum real quick. But she
just has to continue to get better.
The CSM offense got that run back for
Pilster in the fth. It was then that Fiame con-
nected on a solo shot to left eld to make it 5-
1. The home run was the third in three games
for the former Terra Nova Tiger who has been
the revelation of the year for CSM.
Shes been on re for us, Borg said. Her
hand-eye coordination is simply amazing.
I thought we could have used a couple more
runs, Rodriguez said. You dont want to keep
them in it for too long.
At this point, its the playoffs, we want
every game. We were more excited than usual
because our goal this year, every win is one
step close to Bakerseld (and the Final Four).
CSM
his 32 runs scored.
Paroubeck also slugged at a .787 clip and
boasted a .540 on-base percentage. He also
stole 12 bases second on the team
behind Michael Tinsley.
Speaking of Tinsley, he one was of four
other Padres to make the WCAL First Team.
He was joined by shortstop Mickey
McDonald, third baseman Christian Conci
and utility man Paul Murray.
Tinsley hit .400 for the Padres and drove
in 20 hitting primarily in the lead-off stop.
His 23 steals were tops Serra. His .492 on-
base percentage was equally as impressive.
McDonald had a solid season for Serra.
His defense was sensational and he also hit
.321 from the two-hole in the lineup.
Conci was Mr. Clutch for the Padres. The
third baseman hit .323 on the year and
drove in 21 runs.
Murray was just behind Paroubeck in
extra-base hits. He had 16 and slugged .495.
Matt Gorgolinski and Orlando Razo, two
Serra pitchers, made the WCAL Second
Team. Razo led the Padres with an 8-1 record
in 12 appearances with 66 strikeouts. His
ERAsits at 2.80. He also has one save.
Gorgolinski is 7-2 this season for Serra.
Matt Blais, John Murray, Neil Sterling,
Anthony Ramirez and Sean Watkins made
Honorable Mention.
In WCAL softball postseason news,
young Lindsey Mifsud of Notre Dame-
Belmont was named to the First Team.
Only a sophomore, Mifsud hit .397 for
the Tigers and led the team with 16 runs bat-
ted in. She was also tops on the team with
seven extra-base hits.
In the circle, Mifsud pitched in 19 games,
compiling a 8-11 record with a 2.80 ERA.
She struck out 85 and pitched 10 complete
games.
Notre Dame teammates Danica Kazakoff
and Megan Cosgrave (freshman and sopho-
more respectively) were named to the WCAL
Second Team.
Julia Villanueva was named Honorable
Mention.
Menlo tennis makes it ve in a row
For the fth straight season and the 11th
time since 1998, the Menlo Knights boys
tennis team is king of the Central Coast
Section.
After polishing off three opponents and
dropping only ve points along the way,
Menlo took care of business against the
upstart Serra Padres, winning 13-5 at the
Courtside Club in Los Gatos.
Serra, who was making their rst ever
CCS boys tennis nals appearance, tested
Menlo more than Aragon, Leland or
Bellarmine could.
Menlo, SHP tie for
WBAL baseball crown
Menlo School did what they needed to do
on Friday as they won its nal league game
of the season over Harker 7-1 to clinch a
rst-place tie with Sacred Heart Prep giv-
ing the Knights their sixth league title in
team history.
By virtue of the win, the Knights head to
the Central Coast Section playoffs for 25th
time in the last 26 years. They made it to the
championship game last year falling just
short of a three-peat.
In the win against Harker, Chris Atkeson
picked up his sixth win of the season with
ve stellar innings giving up only two hits
and an unearned run. He struck out seven.
Juniors Wyatt Driscoll and Will King
pitched the last two innings for the Knights
who were led offensively, as they have all
season, by senior Adam Greenstein.
Greenstein had two hits, including a dou-
ble in the rst that knocked in the rst run
of the game.
Menlo awaits their seed for next weeks
CCS Division III playoffs where theyll
attempt to win their sixth CCS title and
reach the championship game for the fourth
consecutive year.

SANTA CLARA Lawrence
Okoye was one of the last players
to leave the pitch Friday after-
noon one of several things that
set the big Brit apart from other
newcomers at the San Francisco
49ers rookie minicamp.
Okoye is the only rookie there
who never has played a snap of
organized football. Hes the only
one who has competed in the
Olympics as a discus thrower.
And hes the only one speaking
with a British accent twice
referring to the practice eld as a
pitch, a term he knows from the
rugby fields of his youth in
England.
As he grew to 6-foot-6, 304
pounds, Okoye moved from rugby
to track and eld at age 18 and two
years later set a British record with
a discus throw of 68.24 meters.
Now hes trying to make it in the
NFL with the 49ers as a gridiron
novice, an undrafted rookie who
stands out among his peers this
week on size and reputation not
to mention potential.
Okoye made an impression dur-
ing his rst ofcial day as a foot-
ball player, appearing strong and
agile as he worked with his more
experienced rookie counterparts.
He also displayed a desire to
learn. Long after all other defen-
sive players had left the field,
Okoye remained with defensive
line coach Jim Tomsula, a man
Okoye considers pivotal to his
football development.
This is the rst step of many,
and Im just looking forward to the
whole process, Okoye said. I
believe in this organization I have
the best chance of fullling my
potential. They see my ambition
and they see me as someone that
didnt come here just for fun, but
who will really contribute to the
team when I can. And the best way
I can do that in the moment is to
work hard every day with coach
Tomsula to get to the next level.
Tomsula previously coached in
NFL Europe, where he worked with
prospects similar to Okoye who
had minimal experience playing
football at the professional level.
Okoye developed a bond with
Tomsula in the months leading up
to the NFL draft. Okoye twice
dined with the assistant coach and
said Tomsulas NFL Europe back-
ground was a big factor in Okoye
signing with San Francisco as a
free agent when he went undrafted
in April.
The 49ers obviously had their
reasons for grabbing Okoye, who
impressed scouts at regional com-
bines in March and April. During
those events, he displayed a 35-
inch vertical leap, a 10-foot-5
broad jump and ran the 40-yard
dash in 4.78 seconds.
His background as an Olympian
didnt hurt, either. Okoye qualied
for the discus nals at the 2012
London Olympic Games, a year
after he won a gold medal in the
event at the 2011 European
Championships at age 19.
He took up being a discus
thrower at 18 and two years later
hes throwing in the Olympics,
49ers coach Jim Harbaugh said.
So that bodes well. That was a
shift in what he did and he picked
that up and did very nicely at it.
Its a challenge for him and a chal-
lenge for us as coaches. Im excit-
ed about it and I know our coaches
are.

What is the deal with Off Market real estate sales? I have termed it the UN market!
This is an UNprecedented phenomenon which seems to be growing in popularity.
Why would somebody not want to expose their home to the entire real estate market
through the MLS?
Many reasons can go into this decision. One is having to prepare a home for sale.
Another is the seller may not know where they will live after the sale. In a HOT
market, its enticing to sell your home for a very nice price, yet the seller would have

to buy a home and might need time to find
the right home.
A sale on the UN market could provide
a buyer with the flexibility to provide a
seller time to secure another home
without having a condition of selling a

Baseball suspended umpire Fieldin
Culbreth for two games on Friday
because he was in charge of the
crew that allowed Astros manager
Bo Porter to improperly switch
relievers in the middle of an
inning.
Culbreth and the rest of his crew
Brian ONora, Bill Welke and
Adrian Johnson were also ned
an undisclosed amount, after MLB
admitted its umps goofed for the
second straight day.
The rule covering pitching
changes was not applied correctly
by the umpiring crew, MLB said
in a statement.
The problem in Houston came a
day after Angel Hernandez and his
crew in Cleveland failed to reverse
a clear-cut home run after looking
at a video review. MLB vice presi-
dent Joe Torre said the umpires
made an improper call.
Hernandez was booed when the
umpires were introduced Friday
night before the Washington
Nationals hosted the Chicago
Cubs.
Its recently been a rough run for
umps. Crew chief Tom Hallion was
ned earlier this month after get-
ting into a verbal spat with Tampa
Bay pitcher David Price.
The latest trouble occurred in the
seventh inning at Minute Maid
Park. And while baseball does
have video replay for some hard-
to-tell calls and has talked for a
couple of years about expanding
its scope there was no mistak-
ing what umpires saw.
With two outs and the Astros
ahead 5-3, Houston reliever
Wesley Wright came in from the
bullpen and threw several warmup
pitches from the mound. Porter, a
rst-year manager, then ran onto
the eld to stop him and brought
in another reliever, Hector
Ambriz.
Angels manager Mike Scioscia
argued, correctly contending
Wright was required to pitch to at
least one batter. But the umpires
permitted Ambriz to stay in and
Scioscia put the game under
protest it became moot when
the Angels rallied to win 6-5.
Scioscia wasnt surprised by
MLBs stern ruling.
One thing I have found is that
in the course of, especially with
Joe Torre and Major League
Baseball, that I think there is
accountability that is there, he
said Friday in Chicago, that
might not always show its face
but I know behind the scenes is
there and this is one example.
Pinch-hitter Luis Jimenez was
on deck when Wright entered.
Once Ambriz took over, Scott
Cousins came up as a pinch-hitter.
On Friday, Porter was upset that
he caused the problem.
Personally, I want to apologize
to their whole crew for putting
them in that position, he said.
Its unfortunate for the game of
baseball.
MLB suspends, fines umps after another mistake
By Rachel Feder
A
s rock band Cage the Elephant
once put it, rock and roll is dead, I
probably should have stayed in
school. And they were right. Rock and roll
is dead, and along with it
died the rock and roll
lifestyle. Its no longer
common to drop out of
school and follow the
Grateful Dead all over the
country. What was once
the music that dened a
generation and made the
older folks ears cringe is
now everybodys music. We all love classic
rock. And that makes it very uncool.
My generation needs a new type of
music, new tunes to dene who we are and
how we live our lives. At rst glance, it can
be difcult to tell what this new music style
is. Dub step? Rap? House music? Justin
Bieber? Or none of the above?
Its hard to tell what type of music denes
my generation, because its so under-
ground. This music is so deep underground
that it resembles mythological buried treas-
ure that no one quite knows what it is.
Indie, or underground music has become a
dening genre for this generation, so much
so that its becoming a lifestyle. Music
snobs pride themselves on knowing all the
coolest music, as long as no one else
knows about it. The most amazing bands
are the ones that have yet to be discovered,
and if a song is popular on the radio, then
it must not be very good.
We judge each others music tastes based
upon the bands we do and do not know. If
weve heard of the band, but most other
people have not, then its cool. Its social-
ly acceptable to like underground music,

LOS ANGELES Splat pack ringleader
Eli Roth takes his gory roadshow south in
Aftershock, a lively but formulaic
Chile-set chiller where a group of tourists
finds themselves bloodied, bludgeoned
and buried beneath a horrific earthquake.
With Roth playing one of the leads and
handing off directorial duties to Nicolas
Lopez (Santos), the film tends to feel
shoddier than the first two Hostel
movies, even if the team draws laughs
from the sight of spoiled hipsters getting
their comeuppance in the Third World.
Given how the torture-porn genre has
been waning, credited writers Roth, Lopez
and Guillermo Amodeo bring down the
ketchup count considerably here, and
Aftershock is less of an all-out blood-
bath than a throwback to hokey horror and
disaster flicks from the 70s and 80s.
Taking many of its ingredients from the
Hostel recipe, the film kicks off with a
goofy American tourist known simply as
Gringo (Roth) trying to enjoy the last
days of his Chilean vacation with acquain-
tances-cum-tour guides Pollo (Nicolas
Martinez) and Ariel (Ariel Levy). As
expected, the trio are much less interested
in local history than in bagging Latinas,
and they hop from bar to bar as Gringo
who we learn is a recently separated dad
strikes out with one chick after another

(including Selena Gomez in a brief
cameo).
Eventually the gang bumps shoulders
with American stepsisters Monica
(Andrea Osvart) and Kylie (Lorenza Izzo),
along with their Russian galfriend Irina
(Natasha Yarovenko), and they all head to
the seaside town of Valparaiso for some
more binge drinking. But just when
Aftershock is starting to feel like one
long Spanish-language spring break
video, disaster strikes in a crowded night-
club, leaving the group stuck between
collapsing ceilings, severed limbs and
all-out urban anarchy.
Strictly abiding by horror film scrip-
ture, the characters get knocked off more
or less in the order of transgressions
committed, beginning with Ariel, who
spent the first act annoyingly texting his
ex and justifiably gets his hand chopped
off.
The rest of the bunch seeks salvation in
the chaotic city, but their obnoxious atti-
tudes (Those are really cool favelas! I
want one for my backyard, Kylie says
earlier on) no longer hold sway in a place
where its every hombre for himself.
As the center of attention for much of
the time, Roth has a rather awkward
screen presence, but its at least partially
justified by his character, whos just a
nice guy looking for some local kicks.
The fate the filmmakers reserve for him
is one of the few genuine surprises in a
movie that tends to stick to formula,
offering up minimal scares amid scattered
moments of gross-out bliss.
Made for a purported budget of $10 mil-
lion, the production has more of a
schl ocky, Corman-esque quality to it,
although DP Antonio Quercia does make
decent use of the multiple Chilean loca-
tions. The omnipresent score by Manuel
Riveiro is standard B-movie chow.
Aftershock, a Radius/Wei nst ei n
release, is rated R for strong, bloody vio-
lence, including rape, language, drug
content and some nudity. Running time:
89 minutes.
HORROR
By Lauri Neff
NEWYORK Eli Roth says one of the
best things about his new movie
Aftershock is that it creates a real, new
business model that could help independ-
ent films hold their own against studio
blockbusters.
Roth co-wrote, produced and stars in the
horror film opening Friday about a group
of people who are in a Chilean nightclub
when a massive earthquake strikes, result-
ing in deadly chaos. It is inspired by real
events that occurred after the South
American country was hit by a magnitude
8.8 quake in 2010.
Roth has directed, produced and appeared
in his share of big-budget films including
The Man with the Iron Fists,
Inglourious Basterds and his Hostel
series, but in an interview Wednesday, he
said he and co-writer/director Nicolas
Lopez set out to make Aftershock in a
different manner. Roth said they decided,
instead of doing a $40 million movie,
lets do this as a $2 million movie and see
what we can do.
They opted not to film in Hollywood but
rather in Chile, where not many big
movies are shot. So theyre not thinking
about how to do stuff. Theyre figuring it
out. They dont know that you need 10
people to do this job, so two people do
it, Roth said.
Aftershock was filmed with inexpen-
sive SLR cameras fitted with very good
lenses. Roth said the result was footage
that looks just like what you see in a
Spider-Man movie and that audiences
couldnt tell the difference. You just need
to know how to light, you need to know
how to shoot, but the future is here and you
dont need all the bells and whistles that
Hollywood thinks they need, he said.
Roth noted that even the biggest block-
busters are in theaters for only weeks
before theyre released on video. So
instead of spending $40 million in adver-
tising, hoping it makes 80 million,
Aftershock is being released in theaters,
iTunes and Video On Demand on the same
day with minimal advertising, he said.
He predicted that if this everywhere
release works with Aftershock, others
will follow, allowing them to get their
films out to a targeted audience without the
backing or the budget of a big studio and
still turning a profit.
Roth says Aftershock new business model for film
Aftershock was lmed with inexpensive SLR cameras tted with very good lenses.
WEEKEND JOURNAL 19
By Lou Kesten
Video games came of age in the
1980s, a decade that was also the
heyday of cheesy Hollywood
action movies. Thirty years later,
you dont have to look hard to see
the inuence of one medium on the
other. The ultraviolent power fan-
tasies that seem so corny today
movies like Rambo,
Commando and The Delta
Force pretty much provided
the template for popular games
like Call of Duty and Gears of
War.
Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon
(Ubisoft, for the Xbox 360,
PlayStation 3, PC, $15) makes
that connection more explicit. Its
an affectionate tribute to a cine-
matic era in which one guy with a
lot of guns could solve all the
worlds problems.
The musclehead here is Rex
Power Colt, a cybernetically
enhanced supersoldier whos sent
to a remote island to prevent a
madman from building an unstop-
pable army. Rex is voiced by
Michael Biehn, a veteran of gen-
uine 80s classics like The
Terminator and Aliens, and his
growly one-liners contribute as
much to the atmosphere as the
games pulsing synth-heavy
soundtrack.
The story has everything you
could want from the genre, includ-
ing a painfully awkward sex scene,
a montage of Rex training and a
flamboyantly over-the-top cli-
max. The plot is laid out in pixe-
lated, minimally animated cut
scenes, although most of the
action takes place in the fully up-
to-date engine Ubisoft created for
last years Far Cry 3.
You dont need that game to play
Blood Dragon. Instead, your
$15 buys you a scaled-down ver-
sion of FC3 with a smaller map,
fewer weapons and a streamlined
leveling-up system. It takes just
six hours or so to play through,
which isnt necessarily a bad
thing if you felt FC3 dragged on
too long.
Blood Dragon is an intriguing
experiment in downloadable con-
tent from a big publisher like
Ubisoft. If you loved the parent
game, you get a fresh new adven-
ture using the same mechanics. If
you didnt play Far Cry 3, you
get a solid sample for one-quarter
of the price. Either way, its hard
to resist. Three stars out of four.
Here are a few more inexpen-
sive, downloadable releases that

whose daddy, naturally, doesnt approve.
Screenwriter and first-time director Tina
Gordon Chism (her previous scripts
include Drumline) crafts a predictable
Meet the Parents riff, though she fills it
out with a pleasant supporting cast of
kooks who, while not always interesting,
at least are not off-putting.
Robinsons Wade Walker is a childrens
entertainer who somehow landed gor-
geous, career-driven United Nations
lawyer Grace Peeples (Washi ngt on).
Theyve been together for a year, yet Grace
hasnt introduced Wade to her well-to-do
family (the chocolate Kennedys, Wade
calls them, staring at a photo of the
Peeples clan looking rich and beautiful).
After Grace ducks out for an annual gath-
ering at the familys Long Island vacation
home, Wade decides to force the issue,
crashing the party intending to propose to
Grace over the weekend, in the bosom of
her family. Yeah, thats a plan thats sure
to work out well for him.
From there, Chism just keeps piling up
dumb decisions, silly missteps and skele-
tons in the Peeples family closet, all
intended to wring maximum awkwardness
out of the weekend.
Of course, everything Wade does puts
him at odds with family patriarch Virgi l
Peeples (David Alan Grier), a stern federal
judge who thinks no man is good enough
for his daughter, especially not a guy
whose classroom repertoire includes a
ditty about saying it, not spraying it, to
discourage kids from peeing in their
pants.
The others in the Peeples fold matri-
arch Daphne (S. Epatha Merkerson),
daughter Gloria (Kali Hawk) and her best
pal Meg (Kimrie Lewis-Davis), and teen
son Simon (Tyler James Williams) gener-
ally take a shine to Wade. But they all have
secrets, which Wade, through his outsider
eyes, is able to penetrate, hindering his
efforts to ingratiate himself to the family.
As if we didnt have enough complica-
tions and inexplicable actions, Wades
brother (Malcolm Barrett) decides to pop
in on the Peeples, too. Chism already
strains credibility to have Wade show up
uninvited; shes pressing her luck having
his brother barge in.
Once she has the whole gang assembled
and all the dominoes set up to knock
down, Chism gradually makes her farce
pay off here and there, the pace picking up
and a few gags connecting as Wades week-
end from hell sinks to the lower depths.
Melvin Van Peebles and Diahann Carroll
drop in briefly as Virgils parents, he with
a couple of laughs, she sadly to little use.
These all are amiable people, decent
people, sometimes funny people. But
unfortunately, the peeps of Peeples just
arent very memorable people.
Peeples, a Lionsgate release, is rated
PG-13 for sexual content, drug material
and language. Running time: 95 minutes.
Two stars out of four.
PEEPLES
but once a group or artist goes main-
stream, they become dead to the very
same fans that got them to where they
are. I liked them before they were
cool is a phrase most commonly
overheard around the high school
scene. The music is only as good as
the amount of people who have yet to
discover it.
This leads to an underground
lifestyle that gives voice to a genera-
tion. Were not too over the top with
our protests, and our blatant disregard
for authority is much more subtle than
in past generations. Our music has
funky beats and makes use of eclectic
instruments. Thats our style. We like
to pretend were simple and down-to-
earth, much like our music of prefer-
ence. But hiding behind a bohemian
vibe is an intense use of technology,
editing the appearance and adding
intricate complications. Wed hate to
admit it, but wed be bored if our
music and lives were as simple as we
pretend to want them to be.
We dig tunes that throw back to an
earlier time, one we long for because
of its craziness, passion and laid-back
priorities. It seems as though weve
mastered the part about being laid-
back. Kickbacks, or small parties of a
few friends, are much more popular
than large house parties that dened
teen movies of the past. Yet the real
reason we seem nostalgic for a time of
passion and craziness is because we
pride ourselves on being blas.
The passion we strive for is in
direct contrast with the fact that we
thrive on not knowing anything
worth knowing at the time its rele-
vant. Though were a little under-
ground and most denitely independ-
ent, we should at least try to infuse
those qualities with passion. Our
lifestyle, like our music, should be
about showing others how independ-
ent we are, how self-sufcient weve
become and how individualistic we
are. It might seem contradictory that
as a whole we would strive to become
unique, but Indie music is all about
being different and a little offbeat.
And thats absolutely something we
are.

WEEKEND JOURNAL 21
By Susan Cohn
DAILY JOURNAL SENIOR CORRESPONDENT
THE IMMORTAL HIGHLANDERS:
BLACK WATCH AT THE MISSION
ARMORY IN SAN FRANCISCO. The
highly anticipated production of The
National Theatre of Scotlands interna-
tionally acclaimed production of Black
Watch premiered in 2006 at the Edinburgh
Fringe Festival and has been touring the
world ever since, playing to more than
200,000 people across three continents
and winning 23 awards, including four
2009 Laurence Olivier Awards. The Black
Watch is an infantry battalion of the
Royal Regiment of Scotland that began in
1725, with 540 Highlanders, gentlemen
sons of well-regarded clans. Over the cen-
turies, its accomplishments have been
legion, taking it through every major
international conflict from Fort
Ticonderoga in 1756 to Iraq in 2003. In
2009, the Black Watch was deployed to
Afghanistan under its current title: 3rd
Battalion The Royal Regiment of
Scotland, or 3 SCOTS.
The National Theatre of Scotlands
Black Watch is based on interviews con-
ducted by playwright Gregory Burke with
former soldiers of this legendary regiment
who served in Iraq. Viewed through the
eyes of those on the ground, Black Watch
hurtles from a poolroom in Fife to an
armored wagon in Iraq and reveals what it
means to be part of the war on terror and
what it means to make the journey home
again.
The production, brought to San
Francisco under the auspices of the
American Conservatory Theater, incorpo-
rates video sequences, traditional Scottish
song and expressive choreography from
Olivier Award winner Steven Hoggett,
artistic director of Frantic Assembly, one
of the U.K.s leading physical dance com-
panies. The audience sits in stadium style
seating on either side of the ground level
stage. Written by Gregory Burke. Directed
by John Ti ffany. Associate Director
(Touring), Joe Douglas. One hour and 50
minutes without intermission. Through
June 16.
TICKETS:
Tickets may be purchased online at act-
sf. org or by calling (415) 749-2228.
There will be no late seating. Please plan
appropriate travel and parking time when
making arrangements.
STAGE DIRECTIONS:
Black Watch is staged at the Armory
Community Center, 333 14th St. between
Mission and Valencia, the largest building
of architectural importance in San
Franciscos Mission District. The exterior
of the Mission Armory is designed to con-
vey the impression of a heavily armored
and forbidding Moorish fortress. The most
dramatic interior space element is the
exposed network of curved steel open-web
trusses supporting the roof of the 39,000
square foot Drill Court, which has been
converted by A.C.T. into the performance
space for Black Watch.
PARKING:
$15 at 344 14th St., between Valencia
and Mission streets, directly across from
the Armory Community Center, or at 1370
Stevenson at Duboce. These lots can sell-
out, so please arrive early.
AN ASIDE:
A.C.T. Artistic Director Carey Perloff
said, The minute I saw Black Watch I
knew A.C.T. had to be part of bringing
this monumental piece of majestic theater
to San Francisco, but its demands of set-
ting and size truly had us searching high
and low for the right venue. The Armory, a
building with a rich history of its own,
was the perfect fit to set the stage and
enhance the audiences experience and
understanding of what happened to the
Black Watch soldiers.
DINING NEARBY:
To welcome patrons to the Mission
District, A.C.T. has partnered with several
local restaurants that offer an array of
diverse pre-and post-theater dining and
cocktail options. The participating restau-
rants include Abbots Cellar, Andalu, Beast
and the Hare, Delfina, Ken Ken Ramen,
Locanda, Lolinda, Maverick, Tacolicious
and West of Pecos.

MAYHEM
By Jake Coyle
NEWYORK Tobey Maguire didnt have
to go far when Leonardo DiCaprio called
him about meeting to discuss an adaptation
of The Great Gatsby with Baz Luhrmann.
I happened to live next door to Leo at the
time, so it wasnt a far journey, Maguire
says. I was like, Oh, yeah. Sure. I can be
over in 30 seconds if thats good for you.
The Great Gatsby is the rst lm of note
co-starring the two longtime pals. Its t-
ting, too, because they play the classic tan-
dem of the desperate romantic Jay Gatsby
(DiCaprio) and his lone friend, the narrator
Nick Carraway (Maguire) who, not
unlike Maguire, lives adjacent to Gatsby.
Working together on a lm is a long time
coming for DiCaprio and Maguire. In a
recent joint interview at
the Plaza Hotel in New
York, the two cheerfully
reflected on their close
friendship, flashing
occasional glimpses of
the same boyish compet-
itiveness that first
brought them together as
child actors vying for the
same parts.
After I met Tobey at an audition, I felt
like I wanted this guy to be my friend,
recalls DiCaprio. I remember driving back
from school and he was doing Hot Rod
Brown Class Clown with Whoopi Goldberg
outside Hollywood High. It was a high
school. And I jumped out of my car in the
middle of the scene, as they were shooting,
practically. I was like, Tobey! Tobey!
Tobey! Give me your
number. He was like,
Yeah, who are you
again?
That began some 25
years of a friendship that
hasnt been warped by
time or fame. Theyve
remained steadfast while
their careers ascended
from frantically chasing
parts in Critters 3
(DiCaprios lm debut; Maguire got turned
down) to being among Hollywoods top
leading men.
Theyve taken different routes. DiCaprio
broke out as a teen idol in Titanic, star
power he then used to tackle ambitious roles
with top-tier directors like Martin Scorsese
(The Aviator, Shutter Island), Steven
Spielberg (Catch Me If You Can) and Clint
Eastwood (J. Edgar). Maguire built him-
self through acclaimed dramas (The Ice
Storm, Wonder Boys, The Cider House
Rules) before landing the Spider-Man
franchise.
Every project we do, we talk about, says
DiCaprio. Every single choice Ive made,
Ive talked to Tobey about and vice versa.
Weve had endless conversations about cer-
tain projects and argued with one another
and supported one another along the way.
Maguire, 37, and DiCaprio, 38, both
grew up in divorced families of modest
means in Los Angeles.
We both came from similar upbring-
ings, says DiCaprio. We had humble
beginnings, lets put it that way. We both
were these young, very enthusiastic, ambi-
tious young men that really wanted to get
Leo and Tobey, finally together in Gatsby
of Trustees.
It was love at rst sight. She looked like
perfection to me, Richard Holober said of
their first meeting, adding he recently
learned that she had similarly described him
after their rst meeting as the man she
would marry.
The pair have two grown boys
Reuben, 25, and Evan, 21. The younger son
will soon graduate from the University of
California at Santa Barbara.
Nadia was someone who believed very
passionately in social justice and peace,
said Richard Holober.
As a result, she became involved in poli-
tics throughout the county then focused her
efforts on Millbrae, where the family settled
in 1991. While the boys grew up, Holober
spent time working on the Millbrae
Schools PTA and Mills High School PTO
boards and Scouting Parent Committees,
and as a parent in AYSO and Lions
Baseball. Prior to her rst election to the
City Council, Holober represented Millbrae
and the First Supervisorial District on the
San Mateo County Planning Commission
for more than six years, including two terms
as chair. Holober became particularly inter-
ested in the issues being addressed by the
commission, which inuenced her profes-
sional work as a lawyer.
She was an active volunteer prior to run-
ning for council helping to plan the citys
50th anniversary as well as gathering vol-
unteers on short notice, said her husband.
Holober was rst elected to the council in
1999. Due to term limits, she took a two-
year gap from 2007-09 when she was re-
elected to the council. She served as mayor
in the 2003-04 scal year. During her time
as mayor, Millbraes landmark new library
opened. Richard Holober emphasized the
importance of the library to his wife, who
advocated for the bond money to build the
facility. Another passion for Holober was
the Millbrae Sister Cities Commission, on
which she served for 10 years helping to
promote the citys relationship with Mosta,
Malta and La Serena, Chile, and launched a
Sister City relationship with Kai Ping,
China.
Aside from politics, Holober was also
very active at St. Dunstan Catholic Church
where she served as a Eucharist minister.
A funeral will be held 10 a.m. Tuesday,
May 14 at St. Dunstan Catholic Church,
1133 Broadway, Millbrae. A vigil will be
held 7 p.m. Monday, May 13 also at St.
Dunstan.

Hungarian Heritage Foundation of the San
Francisco Bay Area, said Hungarians may
not make up a signicant portion of the Bay
Area population, but there are many people
who enjoy the culture even if their roots are
from a different country. In fact, about 30
percent of the group isnt Hungarian, she
said.
The one-day event will celebrate the his-
tory of the Hungarian people and also offer
some modern takes.
Those interested in dance will have the
opportunity to see a variety of outts, each
a bit different depending on the town of ori-
gin. The event will feature both adults and
children showcasing three different tradi-
tional dances. Want to get into the act?
There will be a tnchz, which literally
translates to dance house, with teaching cir-
cles for those who want to learn the basics
to traditional, improvisational dances.
Later in the day, 9 p.m. to midnight, a DJ
will be playing more current Hungarian
tunes a new addition to the festival this
year.
Food is a staple of the culture, particular-
ly sausages, pastries and lngos. Booths for
lngos, a deep-fried at bread, and sausages
were so popular last year that the number of
booths were increased this year, said Szabo.
Given the area, modern vegetarian takes on
classic dishes will also be available, she
said.
The family-friendly event will also feature
folk items inspired by Hungarian tradition
for sale.
The Hungarian Heritage Festival will be
held from 11:30 a.m. to midnight Saturday,
May 11 at Twin Pines Park, 1225 Ralston
Ave., Belmont. Tickets are $5 for adults, $3
for students ages 6 to 17 and free for chil-

reaching out to the community and hoping
their efforts plant the seeds for natural sod.
I dont think its a great idea at all,
mostly because we have so few parks with-
in San Carlos that to take a park with a
general purpose and make changes to
increase soccer play makes it a single-pur-
pose sport venue, said Mike Thompson
who manages the groups website and is
organizing a booth at Hometown Days
next weekend.
Its a shameful waste of a beautiful park
that does serve soccer purposes, he added.
Assistant City Manager Brian Moura
said the renovation calls for artificial turf
only on the playing field, not the entire
park, but Thompson said the field is a very
large majority of the space. The city does-
nt currently plan to add lights to
Crestview a significant ancillary worry
along with traffic that Highlands residents
had but Thompson doesnt see how it
can expand playing hours particularly in
winter without them.
And if they arent installed, he asked
why is the city investing millions of dol-
lars in a field that wont actually expand
soccer access?
The city is holding a community meet-
ing May 23 on the updated design followed
by Parks and Recreation Commission con-
sideration June 5. Thompson said resi-
dents are optimistic that other renovation
concerns like reconfiguring the volleyball
and basketball courts will be ameliorated
with the new proposals. The synthetic
turf, on the other hand, doesnt appear to
be going away.
In anticipation, dozens of neighbors
have met together and with Councilman
Mark Olbert. They are also hoping to
spread the word at Hometown Days and by
collecting signatures. As of Friday, the cir-
culated petition had more than 400 names.
But Thompson said he and the neighbors
hope residents from other areas of the city
also join the fight. The city wont stop at
Crestview for soccer space just like it did-
nt stop at Highlands, he said.
Moura said the city has heard worry
about turf from some residents but the big-
ger issues are concerns the track is disap-
pearing its not or that the hardscape
area is being diminished.
Any time you renovate a park, you real-
ly have to address all the different features
and people do get emotional, Moura said.
Emotions were never as high as the
seemingly never-ending quest to renovate
the citys other playing fields, as propo-
nents touted playing hours and water con-
servation and opponents argued about heat
and health concerns.
The tug-of-war over synthetic turf picked
up steam after a 28-member field commit-
tee formed in 2004 and recommended its
use on the lower field of Highlands Park
and Heather Elementary School. However,
the Parks and Recreation Commission
voted in favor of looking at Tierra Linda
Middle School. The council later ended a
two-night public hearing by voting to
install artificial turf at Tierra Linda and
Central middle schools and natural sod at
Highlands Park and Heather Elementary
School. Two weeks later, the council voted
again, deciding 3-2 in favor of analyzing
the idea of installing synthetic turf at
Heather. When the council couldnt reach a
30-year use agreement with the San Carlos
Elementary School District over Heather,
the city moved to Highlands Park on a nar-
row vote.
The original Save San Carlos Parks
group then sued over the scope of the envi-
ronmental review which resulted in the
city opting for an organic infill made of
coconut husk, peat and sand or a combina-
tion of coconut fiber, cork and sand.
Moura said the turf at Crestview would
likely be the same material. The park is on
Crestview Drive north of Brittan Avenue.
The community meeting is 7 p.m.

TURF
Joseph Patrick Kaufman, of San Carlos,
was initially held on $500,000 bail after
being arrested for assaulting Barney
Hanepen, 48, outside the Lariat Tavern on
April 29. After Hanepen died May 2, prose-
cutors upped the charges to murder and on
Friday his bail was also revoked.
Kaufman waived his right to a speedy trial
and returns to court May 29 with his
appointed attorney to set a preliminary
hearing date.
Kaufman and Hanepen were drinking sepa-
rately at the bar and, after closing at 2:15
a.m., reportedly got into an argument over
the victims female friend. Kaufman alleged-
ly punched Hanepen in the face, pushing
him to the ground and repeatedly kicking
him in the head and torso until the man lost
consciousness. Hanepen suffered broken
vertebrae, fractures to his orbital bones,
broken teeth and brain bleeding. Police
found him lying in the street and he
remained hospitalized in critical condition
until his death.

MILLBRAE Our
countrys economic
roller-coaster ride
has been interesting
and historic for
sure, but also very
troubling for many
families whove not
been as financially stable as others.
Recently though Ive been observing a
phenomenon with those we serve at the
CHAPEL OF THE HIGHLANDS. It may
be too early to confirm, but it appears that
there is a general state of confidence with
many families, along with the decisions and
choices they make during funeral
arrangements. Yes, I know you are thinking
that confidence is not a term you would
use to coincide with funeral arrangements,
but it appears to me that people I see are
tending to be more financially assured than
during the deepest years of The Great
Recession.
They say that the two things you cant
avoid are death and taxes. With that in
mind, during the economic downturn I saw a
very noticeable sense of thrift and
prudence with a lot of families who
experienced a death during that period.
Still, those who tended to cost shop at
various funeral homes selected CHAPEL
OF THE HIGHLANDS to handle funeral or
cremation arrangements. These families
found comfort with our service, and notably
with our more economic cost structure.
Now, lately the trend with families and
their funeral choices reminds me of the days
way before the recession hit. Its not that
people are utilizing their funds differently,
spending more or spending less, but that
they are more assertive and confident when
using their wallet. Seeing this over and over
gives me a good indication that something in
the economic climate is changing compared
to not that long ago.
Even though many of our honorable
elected officials in Sacramento and
Washington D.C. appear to be as inflexible
with economic issues as always, the air of
confidence with the families Ive been
dealing with means to me that these people
are feeling less pressured financially.
It is well known that when businesses do
well they hire more employees, and when
those employees are confident they will
spend their money on goods and services.
In turn, the companies that provide goods
and services will need competent employees
to create more goods, give more services,
and so onmaking a positive circle for a
healthy economy. In relation to that, after a
long period of U.S. manufacturing jobs
being sent over-seas there is news of a
growing number of companies bringing this
work back to the United States. Real Estate
values on the Peninsula remained in a good
state during the recession, but houses here
are now in demand more than ever.
Encouraging Hopeful and Positive
are words to describe the optimistic
vibrations that people are giving off. If the
community is becoming more comfortable
with spending, that indicates good health for
business and the enrichment of our
economic atmosphere. I hope Im right, so
lets all keep our fingers crossed.
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)
588-5116 and we will be happy to guide you
in a fair and helpful manner. For more info

Russia says it will keep
selling missiles to Syria
BEIRUT Russia defended its sales of
anti-aircraft systems to the regime of
Syrian President Bashar Assad, just days
after joining forces with the U.S. for a new
push to end Syrias civil war through nego-
tiations.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov
avoided saying whether those sales included
advanced S-300 batteries. Israel has asked
Russia to cancel what it said was the immi-
nent sale of the S-300 missiles, portrayed
by U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry as
destabilizing to Israels security.
The S-300s would make it harder for the
U.S. and other countries to even consider
intervening militarily or enforcing a no-y
zone in Syria. The U.S. has urged Russia
an Assad ally along with China, Iran and the
Lebanese Hezbollah militia to cut off
weapons supplies to Syria.
Despite such disagreements, Russia and
the U.S. decided this week to convene an
international conference to bring represen-
tatives of the Assad regime and the opposi-
tion to the negotiating table. Such talks
would aim at setting up a transitional gov-
ernment. No date has been set.
Around the world
By Julhas Alam
SAVAR, Bangladesh For 17 days, the
seamstress lay trapped in a dark basement
pocket beneath thousands of tons of wreck-
age as temperatures outside climbed into the
mid-90s F. She rationed food and water. She
banged a pipe to attract attention. She was
fast losing hope of ever making it out alive.
In the ruins of the collapsed eight-store
garment factory building above her, the
frantic rescue operation had long ago ended.
It had turned instead into a grim search for
the decaying bodies of the more than 1,000
people killed in the worlds worst garment
industry disaster.
No one heard me. It was so bad for me. I
never dreamed Id see the daylight again,
the seamstress, Reshma Begum, told
Somoy TV from her hospital bed after her
astonishing rescue on Friday.
The miraculous moment came when sal-
vage workers nally heard Begums bang-
ing. They pulled her to safety. She was in
shockingly good condition, wearing a vio-
let outt with a large, bright pink scarf.
I heard her say, I am alive, please save
me. I gave her water. She was OK, said
Miraj Hossain, a volunteer who crawled
through the debris to help cut Begum free.
The rescue was broadcast on television
across Bangladesh. The prime minister
rushed to the hospital, as did the womans
family to embrace a loved one they thought
theyd never again see alive.
On April 24, Begum was working in a fac-
tory on the second oor of Rana Plaza when
the building began collapsing around her.
She said she raced down a stairwell into the
basement, where she became trapped near a
Muslim prayer room in a wide pocket that
allowed her to survive.
Her long hair got stuck under the rubble,
but she used sharp objects to cut her hair and
free herself, said Maj. Gen. Chowdhury
Hasan Suhrawardy, the head of the local mil-
itary units in charge of the disaster site.
There was some dried food around me. I
ate the dried food for 15 days. The last two
days I had nothing but water. I used to drink
only a limited quantity of water to save it. I
had some bottles of water around me,
Begum told the television station, as doc-
tors and nurses milled about, giving her
saline and checking her condition.
