DEVASTATION INCLUDES HABITAT FOR HUMANITY HOMES
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The former prominent child psy-
chiatrist being tried again on
charges he molested ve former
male patients under the guise of
medical exams abruptly changed
his plea to no contest to all counts
on Thursday afternoon, just hours
after a high court denied a renewed
defense bid to
nd him mental-
ly incompetent.
The surpris-
ing change of
heart by
W i l l i a m
Hamilton Ayres,
81, came a day
after jury selec-
tion. The settle-
ment comes four years after Ayres
rst criminal trial ended with a
hung jury and a year after doctors
at Napa State Hospital returned
him to San Mateo County saying
the former doctor had been faking
or exaggerating his Alzheimers-
related dementia to avoid another
prosecution.
Ayres entered the no contest
plea to eight counts of child
molestation without benet of any
sentencing promises although
Judge Beth Freeman indicated a
likely eight-year term. He faces up
to 22 years and, regardless of the
time imposed, will also be required
to register as a sex offender for
life.
This is an excellent outcome,
said District Attorney Steve
Wagstaffe. We had him so boxed
in. This case had better evidence
than it did four years ago. We had
one of my best prosecutors on the
case. I think the defense realized it
had nowhere to go.
Wagstaffe also emphasized the
resolution is not a plea bargain in
any fashion and, after hearing
from victims, his ofce may ask

President takes
action, but GOP
still unsatisfied
By Julie Pace
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON President
Barack Obama, seeking to regain
his footing amid controversies
hammering the White House,
named a temporary chief for the
scandal-marred Internal Revenue
Service Thursday and pressed
Congress to approve new security
money to prevent another
Benghazi-style terrorist attack.
The efforts did little to satisfy
Republicans, who see the contro-
versies as an opportunity to derail
Obamas second-term agenda.
House Speaker John Boehner sug-
gested the White House had violat-
ed the publics trust, and he prom-
ised to stop at nothing to hold
the administration accountable.

For many adults, building
blocks were a simple childhood
t oy.
Some interlocked while others
were simple surfaces to be stacked.
But today, curious souls wanting
to build can use blocks to build
robots, play interactive games or
digitally create an online world
which players in other countries
will enjoy once it goes live. Those
are all examples of ways people
can become makers that will be
showcased a the Maker Faire this
weekend at the San Mateo County
Event Center. Expected to draw
more than 100,000 people from

Maker Faire at the San Mateo County Event Center last year.
Court says They do
Californias Supreme Court declared
the week of May 17, 2008 that gay
couples in the nations biggest state
could marry a monumental but per-
haps short-lived victory for the gay
rights movement greeted with tears,
hugs, kisses and at least
one instant proposal of
matrimony.
In its 4-3 ruling, the
Republ i can- domi nat ed
high court struck down
state laws against same-sex marriage
and said domestic partnerships that
provide many of the rights and bene-
ts of matrimony are not enough.
Religious and social conservatives
were pressing to put a constitutional
amendment on the ballot in
November 2008 that would undo the
Supreme Court ruling and ban gay
marriage.
Husband convicted
of first-degree murder
The Daly City man who claimed his
wife was already dead in a pool of
blood when he returned home from a
night with his girlfriend was found
guilty of fatally stabbing her multiple
times before eeing with their three
young children, according to a jury
who deliberated six days before
returning its decision the week of May
17, 2008.
The rst-degree murder conviction
against Quincy Dean Norton Sr., plus
the additional allega-
tion of using a knife
in the crime meant the
33-year-old man was
t o
receive 26 years to life
in prison.
The verdict came after a three-week
trial which pitted Nortons story of
nding his wife against a prosecution
case including the testimony of his
two oldest children and his wifes fam-
i l y. The defense implied Nortons
girlfriend, Anitra Johnson, had a hand
in the death of Tamika Mack Norton,
33, but in the end jurors sided with the
prosecution theory that Norton killed
his wife after she led for divorce and
asked that he have limited contact
with their three children.
County urges
heat wave precautions
With a heat wave predicted in San
Mateo County and the Bay Area during
the week of May 17, 2008, local of-
cials were urging residents to take pre-
cautions against heat stroke and
exhaustion.
Oil sets record near
$128; pump price at high, too
News that Saudi Arabia
had boosted its oil output
by 300,000 barrels a day
was greeted as a non-
event on oil markets the
week of May 17, 2008 the move
wasnt anywhere near the kind of pro-
duction increase needed to bring
prices down.
And traders were equally unim-
pressed by the U.S. governments
plan to stop adding to the Strategic
Petroleum Reserve.
One day, two moves designed to
allay concerns about an overheated
oil market that was squeezing
motorists and inating the prices of
all sorts of goods.
The response in the oil trading pits?
Traders did what theyve been doing
for months now, and pushed crude oil
and gasoline futures to new highs.

Mikaela Kitaura grew up a tomboy with
an affinity for sport and a love of marine
life neither of those interests has
waned.
In fact, the 18-year-old from Redwood
City is graduating from the Middle
College high school program at Caada
College with 57 college units. She plans
to keep taking classes at the Redwood
City community college to finish the pre-
requisites needed to transfer to study
marine biology. In the meantime, Kitaura
plans to stay active in sports on her col-
lege campus a new challenge despite
taking classes there for two years.
Mikaela is the kind of self-motivated
and engaged student that makes teaching a
j oy, said Middle College teacher Jen
Buchanan.
While attending Henry Ford Elementary
School, Kitaura began taking piano les-
sons in her free time. But it was with
sports that shes spent most of her time.
Kitaura, the youngest of four children,
happily took part in a variety of sports
growing up basketball, tennis, volley-
ball, soccer, badminton and judo. Judo
was a lesson inspired by her grandfather,
who teaches the martial art. Other sports
came and went as Kitaura traveled through
Kennedy Middle School into Woodside
High School. Basketball was a consistent
focus for Kitaura throughout her 18 years.
More recently, tennis and badminton have
also taken top billing.
Despite attending school at Caada for
her last two years of high school, Kitaura
has played on the varsity basketball team
all four years at Woodside.
But sports werent enough for Kitaura.
One of her older sisters had attended
Middle College and Kitaura liked the idea
of having more control over her classes
while earning college credit which
would save her parents money.
Mikaela has been a joy to have in our
classes the last two years. Last year, she
impressed all of us when she made a video
for one of our class projects that was so
well done and showed off both her skills
in video production and her interest in
ocean ecology, said Middle College
Director Jen Petroelje.
Kitaura scheduled her day so that classes
ended at 3 p.m., when she would head over
to Woodside and take part in sports.
I definitely like to keep myself busy,
she said.
Outside of school, Kitaura, a Buddhist,
became active in a local high school
group connecting Buddhist youth around
the Bay Area. She also works part time
helping organize and input data for a
researcher at the U.S. Geological Survey.
The hands-on work with research data is
great experience for Kitaura who hopes to
someday focus her time on researching the
ocean.
The graduation for the Middle College
program at Caada College will be held at
3 p.m. Thursday, May 23 at the Main
Theater, 4200 Farm Hill Blvd., Redwood
Ci t y.
Great Grads is in its eighth year prof i l i ng
one graduating senior from each of our
local schools. Schools have the option to
participate. Those that choose to partici-
pate are asked to nominate one student
who deserves recognition.

A well-known rest stop off of
Interstate 280 just north of
Hillsborough will be ofcially dedicat-
ed today in the honor of a California
Highway Patrol ofcer murdered in a
Burlingame coffee shop.
CHP ofcer Dale M. Krings, 34, was
killed May 21, 1962 in a gunght at
the Hyatt House by shooter Edward
Lang Hargrove, 47, but not before
returning fire while protecting his
partner and other restaurant patrons.
Krings, a Navy veteran who left a
lumber job to join the CHP, was hav-
ing breakfast at the coffee shop with
his partner, Ofcer Vincent Bianchini.
About 20 others
were inside, includ-
ing Hargrove who
had reportedly been
heard mumbling the
previous week that
he hated cops. On
that early May
morning, Hargrove
left his table,
returned with a deer
rie and opened re. Before shooting,
news reports from the time stated that
Hargrove announced, This is it, gen-
tlemen.
One shot hit a waitress and, as he
red on Krings, the ofcer drew his
weapon and pulled the trigger on his
revolver. Hargrove, an unemployed
writer from San Mateo, died.
Krings, hit in the head, also died,
leaving behind his wife, Marjorie, a 4-
year-old son and 2-year-old daughter.
Last year, then-assemblyman Jerry
Hill introduced a resolution honoring
Krings on the 50th anniversary of his
last fateful shift. On Friday, Hill, CHP
Commissioner Joe Farrow and others
will take the added step of dedicating
the rest area on Interstate 280, just
north of State Route 92, between the
Bunker Hill Drive and Black Mountain
Road exits.
If you go, the dedication is 11 a.m.

of the State Route 92 intersection
between the Bunker Hill Drive and

Farmers market finds new home
With construction affecting a por-
tion of downtown Redwood City, the
Saturday farmers market that called the
area home for more than three decades
is likely moving to a section of
Arguello Street as early as this fall.
City staff and the Kiwanis Club that
operates the market have been looking
for a new home and yesterday
announced the move away from its cur-
rent location at the corner of Winslow
and Hamilton streets. The City
Council must still approve the move at
its May 20 meeting. If given the green
light, the move will happen to north
of Marshall Street as early as Sept. 7.
To accommodate the market,
Arguello Street will be closed from
Marshall Street north to about halfway
down the block toward Brewster Street
as well as a half-block of Bradford
Street from Arguello.
Parking is encouraged in the Perry
Street Caltrain lot and the San Mateo
County Center garage.
Downtown construction also
shelved the citys Tuesday night farm-
ers market operated by the Rotary
Club adjacent to Courthouse Square.

State fuels $550M
Powerball jackpot
SAN DIEGO The numbers sum up the frenzy that has
taken over the Golden State since it became the newest in
the nation to join the madness over Powerball, which saw
its jackpot soar Thursday to $550 million.
California has sold $83 million worth of Powerball tick-
ets since it started selling them in April and overall has
accounted for 11 percent of the games sales in the country,
fueling such fast-growing mega-jackpots like the latest one
that has the potential to be a record-breaker.
The state expects to generate well above the originally
estimated $50 million for public education, California lot-
tery director Robert ONeill told The Associated Press.
One thing California has brought Powerball is sunshine
and good fortune, he said.

Judge to hear lawsuit
over high-speed rail bonds
SACRAMENTO State officials on
Thursday agreed to drop a request to consol-
idate all lawsuits challenging Californias
use of voter-approved high-speed rail
bonds, allowing a trial seeking to prevent
the state from spending bond money to
begin later this month.
Opponents of the $68 billion bullet train
project and attorneys for the California
High-Speed Rail Authority submitted their
agreement to a Sacramento County Superior
Court judge.
That allows Judge Michael P. Kenny to
begin hearing arguments May 31 in a law-
suit led in 2011 by Kings County. The
county claims the current high-speed rail
plans do not comply with the requirements
voters approved in 2008, when they passed
Proposition 1Ato sell nearly $10 billion in
bonds for the project.
Its really in the best interests of justice
that we get it resolved before construction
starts, said attorney Stuart Flashman, who
represents Kings County and other plain-
tiffs.
Opponents of the project argue that it vio-
lates many facets of the ballot initiative,
including requirements that the state have
all the money in place and all environmen-
tal approvals secured for the rst phase of
construction before work begins. They want
a judge to prevent the authority from spend-
ing any of the bond proceeds on the current
project.
The state attorney generals ofce, repre-
senting the California High-Speed Rail
Authority, was seeking to consolidate all
lawsuits and potential future lawsuits chal-
lenging the states ability to sell and spend
the voter-approved bonds. Its request could
have delayed the trial.
To get a resolution about whether it is
legally entitled to sell more bonds, the state
this spring made a highly unusual ling
called a validation action, which essen-
tially invites anyone with a claim against
the bullet train to sue the state. Its that
action that high-speed rail ofcials had pre-
viously hoped to merge with the Kings
County lawsuit.
Rail ofcials hope to begin construction
this summer on the rst 30-mile segment of
track from Madera to Fresno, using $3.3 bil-
lion in federal money, but the state has said
it will not tap more bond money while the
legal action is pending. California previ-
ously sold $705 million in project-related
bonds.
Mans body retrieved
from base of cliff near Pescadero
The body of a man in his 40s was retrieved
from the base of a cliff near state Highway 1
in Pescadero Thursday morning, a San
Mateo County sheriffs spokeswoman said.
The man was dressed in jeans and a T-shirt,
and there were no obvious signs of foul
play, sheriffs spokeswoman Deputy
Rebecca Rosenblatt said.
The San Mateo County Coroners Ofce
will work to determine the mans identity
and the cause of his death.
Crews were called to the scene at about
8:20 a.m. when a backpacker noticed a body
about 90 feet down the cliff about two miles
north of Pescadero Creek Road.
Authorities found a truck nearby but it has
not been determined if the truck belonged to
the man, Rosenblatt said.

Firefighters extinguished a one-alarm

ing, according to re ofcials.
At about 2:40 a.m., re ofcials received a

hood.
Firefighters extinguished the blaze at

The measure from Assemblyman Tom

statewide standard for how local agencies
should comply with a federal program
requiring immigration status checks of any-
one arrested.
The federal Secure Communities program
requires people found to be in the U.S. ille-
gally to be held for immigration ofcials.
But Ammiano said the majority of the
95,000 people in California who have been
detained and deported did not have criminal
records, including some who were victims
of domestic violence.
Under AB4, known as the Trust Act, local
law enforcement would be able to detain
only people who were previously convicted
of a serious or violent felony.
California cannot afford to expend vital
resources on the prolonged detention of
people who pose no threat to public safety,
Ammiano said.
Supporters say the change would rebuild
trust of law enforcement in immigrant com-
munities, increasing public safety by
encouraging cooperation with police.
Opponents said it would remove a tool of
law enforcement. They also questioned
whether federal funding could be jeopardized
by not following national immigration pol-
icy.
Bill would limit immigrant detentions
Assembly advances
bill to ban lead ammo
SACRAMENTO Legislation that would
make California the rst state to ban the use
of lead ammunition in hunting has cleared
the state Assembly.
The bill from Democratic Assemblyman
Anthony Rendon of Lakewood would require
hunters to use non-lead ammunition.
Advocates have sought the ban because of
health risks associated with lead left in the
environment. Hunting with lead bullets
already is prohibited in eight counties that
are home to the endangered California con-
dor, which has been susceptible to lead poi-
soning.
Republicans say AB711 would create a de
facto ban on hunting. Some alternatives to
lead bullets may not be available because of
federal restrictions on armor-piercing
ammunition.
The Assembly passed the bill Thursday on
a largely party-line vote of 44-21. It now
heads to the state Senate.
Bill promotes
violence awareness in schools
SACRAMENTO The state Senate
approved a bill on Thursday that would
require education ofcials to create lesson
plans about violence in American culture
the Legislatures latest reaction to mass
shootings last year elsewhere in the nation.
Under SB552, individual schools could
decide whether to include the lessons in cur-
riculum.
The bills author, Sen. Ron Calderon, D-
Montebello, hopes to counter the mass mar-
keting of violence through video games,
television and movies.
Calderon said many children also are
exposed to real violence every day in their
neighborhoods or through media reports.
Schools can provide a counterbalance to
the ood of violence that our children are
exposed to daily, Calderon said.

WASHINGTON Companies that
drill for oil and natural gas on federal
lands will be required to disclose pub-
licly the chemicals used in hydraulic
fracturing operations, the Obama
administration said Thursday. The new
fracking rule replaces a draft pro-
posed last year that was withdrawn
amid industry complaints that federal
regulation could hinder an ongoing
boom in natural gas production.
The new draft rule relies on an online
database used by Colorado and 10
other states to track the chemicals used
in fracking operations. FracFocus.org
is a website formed by industry and
intergovernmental groups in 2011
that allows users to gather well-specif-
ic data on thousands of drilling sites.
The proposed rule also sets standards
for proper construction of wells and
disposal of wastewater.
Fracking involves pumping huge
volumes of water, sand and chemicals
underground to split open rocks to
allow oil and gas to ow. Improved
technology has allowed energy com-
panies to gain access to huge stores of
natural gas underneath states from
Wyoming to New York but has raised
widespread concerns about alleged
groundwater contamination and even
earthquakes.
Interior Secretary Sally Jewell called
the proposed rule a common-sense
update that increases safety while
also providing exibility and improv-
ing coordination with states and
Indian tribes.
Current regulations date back to
1982, when the Sony Walkman was
considered cutting-edge, Jewell said.
As we continue to offer millions of
acres of Americas public lands for oil
and gas development, it is important
that the public has full condence that
the right safety and environmental
protections are in place, she said.
But environmental groups said the
proposal was weaker than last years
plan and represents a nearly complete
capitulation to industry, which had
lobbied heavily against the earlier
rule. Interiors Bureau of Land
Management has held at least 11 meet-
ings this year with industry groups as
well as fracking opponents.
Comparing todays rule governing
fracking on public lands with the one
proposed a year earlier, it is clear what
happened: the Bureau of Land
Management caved to the wealthy and
powerful oil and gas industry and left
the public to fend for itself, said
Jessica Ennis, a spokeswoman for the
environmental group Earthjustice.

The vast Monterey shale formation is estimated by the U.S. Energy Information
Administration to hold 15 billion barrels of technically recoverable oil, or four
times that of the Bakken formation centered on North Dakota. Most of that oil is
not economically retrievable except by hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, a
production-boosting technique in which large amounts of water,sand and chemicals
are injected into shale formations to force hydrocarbon fuels to the surface.
Obama vows sustained
effort on military sex abuse
WASHINGTON President Barack Obama said Thursday
the nations military leaders told him they are ashamed of
their failure to end sexual abuse in the armed services.
Obama pledged to leave no stone unturned in the effort to
halt the abuse, which he said undermines the trust the mili-
tary needs to be effective.
Obama also said he has asked Defense Secretary Chuck
Hagel and Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Martin Dempsey
to lead a process to root out the problem.
They care about this and they are angry about it, Obama
said at the White House, after he summoned Hagel, Dempsey
and other top defense leaders to discuss a problem thrust to
the fore by recent misconduct cases and a Pentagon report
showing that up to 26,000 military members may have been
sexually assaulted last year.
I heard directly from all of them that they are ashamed by
some of whats happened, Obama said.
Earlier Thursday, the Armys top ofcer acknowledged that
his service is failing in its effort to stop sexual assaults.
Justice Department
faulted over terrorist identities
WASHINGTON The government allowed a small but
signicant number of terrorists into Americas witness pro-
tection program and then failed to provide the names of
some of them for a watch list thats used to keep dangerous
people off airline ights, the Justice Departments inspector
general says.
As a result of the departments failure to share information
with the Terrorist Screening Center, some in the witness
protection program who were on a government no-y list
were allowed to travel on commercial ights, the depart-
ments watchdog said.
The FBI-managed screening center is the clearinghouse
for information about known or suspected terrorists.
In a briefing for reporters Thursday, the Justice
Department said it had remedied the problem with a restric-
tive travel policy that prohibits program participants with
no-y status from traveling on commercial ights.

GRANBURY, Texas Habitat for
Humanity spent years in a North Texas sub-
division, helping build many of the 110
homes in the low-income area. But its work
was largely undone during an outbreak of 13
tornadoes Wednesday night that killed six
people and injured dozens.
On Thursday, authorities combed through
debris in Granbury, while residents awaited
the chance to see what was left of their
homes. Witnesses described the two badly
hit neighborhoods as unrecognizable, with
homes ripped from foundations and others
merely rubble.
Granbury, about 40 miles southwest of
Fort Worth, bore the brunt of the damage.
The National Weather Services preliminary
estimate was that tornado had wind speeds
between 166 mph and 200 mph. Other tor-
nadoes spawned from the violent spring
storm damaged nearby Cleburne and
Millsap.
I tell you, it has just broken my heart,
said Habitat for Humanity volunteer Elsie
Tallant, who helped serve lunch every week-
end to those building the homes in a
Granbury neighborhood and those poised to
become homeowners.
Hood County Commissioner Steve Berry
said Thursday he couldnt tell one street
from another in Granburys Rancho Brazos
Estates neighborhood because of the
destruction. Half of one home was torn away
while the other half was still standing,
glasses and vases intact on shelves. Trees
and debris were scattered across yards, and
fences were attened. Sheet metal could be
seen hanging from utility wires.
The weather service said the preliminary
storm estimate for the Granbury tornado was
an EF-4, based on the Fujita tornado damage
scale. An EF-5 is the most severe.
Of the homes in the Rancho Brazos
Estates, 61 of them were built by Habitat for
Humanity, according to Gage Yeager, execu-
tive director of Trinity Habitat for Humanity
in Fort Worth. He said most of those homes
were damaged, including at least a dozen
that were destroyed.
Raul Rodriguez was among the lucky
ones: His Habitat for Humanity home was
still standing. The 42-year-old mechanic
rode the storm out in a closet with his wife
and three children as he heard the windows
shattering outside, but realized their fortune
when they emerged to see a heartbreaking
scene.
Injured people, bloody people, started
coming to our house, asking us to call 911,
said Rodriguez, who has lived in the neigh-
borhood for more than two years. He
assessed his own home, nding only shat-
tered windows, lost roof shingles and a col-
lapsed garage.
My neighbors to the right, they lost
everything, he said.
Habitat for Humanity volunteer Bill
Jackson said the homes, built primarily for
low-income people, were insured and can be
rebuilt. But that doesnt alleviate Tallants
pain.

Afghanistan: Bomb kills
15, including six Americans
KABUL, Afghanistan A suicide car
bombing tore through a U.S. convoy in
Kabul on Thursday, killing at least 15 peo-
ple including six Americans in a blast so
powerful it rattled the other side of the
Afghan capital. U.S. soldiers rushed to
help, some wearing only T-shirts or shorts
under their body armor.
AMuslim militant group claimed respon-
sibility for the morning rush hour attack,
saying it was carried out by a new suicide
unit formed in response to reports that the
U.S. plans to keep bases and troops in
Afghanistan even after the 2014 deadline
for the end of the foreign combat mission.
The group, Hizb-e-Islami, said its ghters
had stalked the Americans for a week to
learn their routine before striking a claim
which raises questions about U.S. security
procedures.
Two children were among nine Afghan
civilians killed in the attack.
I cant nd my children. Theyre gone.
Theyre gone, their father screamed before
collapsing to the ground as neighbors
swarmed around to comfort him.

OPINION 9
Letter to the editor
By Melissa Lukin
T
he morning of April 22 wasnt at all
typical for what many would
describe as a bucolic and relatively
close-knit section of Redwood City: A72-
year-old woman lost her life with a gunshot
to the head at the hands of her 69-year-old
husband. While little is known at this time
about the motive in this case, and police
are still investigating it, it is a sad
reminder that such tragedies continue: On
average, more than three women and one
man are murdered by their intimate partners
in the U.S. every day.
In our experience at Community
Overcoming Relationship Abuse, or
CORA, people often do not reach out for
help because of misperceptions and even
misinformation about the level of danger
they, or a loved one, might be in. As the
countys only full-service domestic vio-
lence agency, we work with families from
all races, classes and ethnicities who seek
safety. While women between the ages of
18 to 34 are most at risk,
each victims experience
is entirely unique, and
the kind of violence
(verbal, physical, sexu-
al) varies. Indeed, abuse
of any kind is an equal
opportunity social ill.
It impacts children who
are witness to domestic
violence, and teenagers; it happens in East
Palo Alto and Hillsborough and, yes, it
even impacts the elderly.
Those seeking services to improve safety
have options in our county. CORApro-
vides a 24-hour hotline, ((800) 300-1080),
emergency shelter, transitional housing
and legal and counseling services. We also
partner with other agencies that provide
exceptional, free legal services as well as
medical and law enforcement personnel.
And in fact it would appear our collective
efforts are working. Thankfully, the rate of
homicides among domestic partners is far
less frequent in San Mateo County and
around the country than it was a decade ago.
The Federal Bureau of Justice Statistics
shows a decline from 2.1 million victims
to 907,000 victims. Though even one vic-
tim is one too many.
The heartbreak, physical harm, psycho-
logical damage and public cost sustained
by a loss of life, regardless of the circum-
stances looms large and its impact is
broad. There is still much work to be done
to ensure that those who know they might
be in danger know help is available, that
they are not alone and that the abuse is not
their fault.
Melissa Lukin is the executive director of
CORA, Community Overcoming
Relationship Abuse.
Money is not more
important than people
Editor,
Two of the letters in a recent issue of the
Daily Journal (Alex Phillips letter
Misguided PG&E nes and Warren
Gibsons letter Hoarding is not anti-
social in the May 10 edition of the Daily
Journal) are perfect examples of two letter
writers who believe money is more impor-
tant than people. In Phillips letter, he
states its more important for the share-
holders of Pacic Gas and Electric to make
a prot, no matter how many people PG&E
kills and no matter how many homes, fami-
lies and lives are destroyed as long as
PG&E makes a prot, its executives make
million-dollar bonuses and the sharehold-
ers make money on their investments.
Phillips doesnt understand that the $2.25
billion ne proposed against PG&E would
not go into the (states) general fund.
Instead, by law, this money is used to pro-
tect the public by paying for inspectors to
supervise PG&E in complying with the
PUC mandates to update its infrastructure
and maintain the safe level of operations.
Obviously, PG&E cant be trusted to do it
alone. Theyve already proven that. The
big ne is also punitive damages and a
warning to PG&E not to endanger the pub-
lic again.
The second letter, Hoarding in not anti-
social, is another example of money is
more important than people thinking.
Apparently, Warren Gibson, thinks that
when banks, corporations and people
hoard their money, the effect is lower
prices. Anybody with common sense, let
alone, an education in business or econom-
ics, knows that Mr. Gibson is incorrect.
When banks, corporations and people
spend their money on investments, expan-
sion and other projects, more money is cir-
culated in our economy. This isnt rocket
science.

W
e have fewer than ve months
until the October enrollment
launch when uninsured
Californians will be able to apply for cov-
erage through the state.
Depending on their income, uninsured
individuals can either buy insurance in the
states exchange, called Covered
California, or get coverage from expanded
Medi-Cal, the joint state-federal insurance
plan for lower-income people.
Yet big issues remain unresolved. The
state needs to decide them quickly so
providers, insurers, community groups,
state agencies and counties can prepare for
the October enrollment period.
In his January budget proposal, Gov.
Jerry Brown was undecided between a state-
based approach or a county-based
approach, and he is not tipping his hand
until Tuesday, when he presents his May
budget revision very late in the game.
Acounty-by-county piecemeal approach
makes no sense. The Legislative Analysts
Ofce recommends that the Legislature
adopt a state-based Medi-Cal expansion to
match existing statewide Medi-Cal benet
packages, provider networks and provider
rates. Get this done.
The state estimates that half of the unin-
sured will sign up for insurance in the
exchange or through Medi-Cal. But some 3
million to 4 million will remain uninsured
3 million citizens, plus 1 million
noncitizens who are not eligible for cover-
age.
Brown should heed the concerns of coun-
ties, but he should not issue the counties a
blank check.
Dollars should be distributed by actual
numbers of the remaining uninsured cared
for by the county safety net.
The LAO says that given the multitude of
issues the Legislature faces with health
coverage alone, the state should avoid
introducing additional issues such as
complicated shifts of authority over unre-
lated programs.
California has plenty to do to get the
Medi-Cal expansion and the state health
exchange going in time for the October
open enrollment period. The governor and
Legislature should focus like a laser on that
and get it done by June 15.
Health care reform wont be easy in this complex state
Other voices
Freedom of
the press?
U
.S. Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., is
proposing a revival of a 2009
media shield bill that would protect
journalists and their companies from having
to reveal information to anyone, including
the government. That includes the identity
of sources who were promised condentiali-
t y.
The proposal comes
on the heels of the
reports that the Justice
Department seized two
months of telephone
records of more than
20 phone lines associ-
ated with Associated
Press reporters. There
was no prior notice.
The seizure was
prompted by an AP
story that disclosed
details of an airline bombing plot planned
near the anniversary of the Osama bin
Ladens death.
The White House has backed Schumers
proposal but has limited its comments on
the situation because it is essentially a crim-
inal investigation of certain ofcials.
Schumers proposal is a good one but, in
reality, it should not be needed since there
should be a strong understanding of what
amounts to a primary tenet of a free press.
The press should be condent in its ability
to keep its information private and protect
its sources, many of whom may not be will-
ing to share critical information if there is a
chance their identity could be discovered
through government intrusion.
And thats just what it is, government
intrusion. I understand the need for secrets
when it comes to national security, but such
an effort undertaken by the Justice
Department should only be entertained if
there is no other way to get the information
required. The action itself is hostile, and it
just might be the modus operandi of this
administration. It is a high-level member of
this administration that threatened noted
journalist Bob Woodward in February that he
would regret if he pursued a story on
President Obama moving the goalposts on
the sequester. Obama is not a fan of press
conferences and will sometimes only speak
off the record on certain issues to the White
House press corps. Yet still, the administra-
tion has a cordial relationship with an over-
all supporting press.
Until the magnitude of the stories coalesce
in such a way that the sheer volume of crises
amounts to the story. In recent weeks, we
have seen the increased awareness of what
specically happened in Benghazi and the
administrations efforts to scrub its talking
points of any mention of terror, instead
pointing to an obscure video as the premise
for the death of four Americans, including
U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens. Then
there was the shocking revelation that the
Internal Revenue Service targeted conserva-
tive groups seeking tax-exempt status,
delaying paperwork and limiting their abili-
ty to raise money.
For his part, Obama is seeking to stay on
top of the controversies and even tried to
change the narrative this week by announc-
ing the departure of the acting IRS commis-
sioner and using stern language in describ-
ing the IRSs actions.
These three stories have been painted by
some as some sort of GOP pile-on, but even
if you dont care about Benghazi and are just
slightly concerned about the IRS targeting
certain groups for what seems like political
purposes, you should care about the assault
on the freedom of the press and its ability to
keep its information private since that is
outlined prominently in our rst and fourth
amendments. Schumer is right to pick up
this legislation. The freedom to keep sources
of information private should be protected.
But its a bit frustrating that there needs to
be a new discussion on key protections that
were at the very heart of our Founding
Fathers ght.

Big movers
By Matthew Craft
NEW YORK Signs of a slowing
economy combined with comments
from a Federal Reserve ofcial helped
pull the stock market down Thursday.
There was plenty of discouraging
news. Applications for unemployment
benets rose last week and manufactur-
ing slowed in the mid-Atlantic region.
Wal-Mart sank after warning that its
customers were spending less at its
stores.
The Dow Jones industrial average fell
42.47 points to 15,233.22, a loss of
0.3 percent. The Standard & Poors 500
index dropped 8.31 points to
1,650.47, down 0.5 percent. It was
only the third drop for the S&P500 this
month. Both indexes closed at record
highs the day before.
Weve had such a tremendous run,
said J. J. Kinahan, chief strategist at TD
Ameritrade. On a day with a bunch of
disappointing data, youre looking for
some good news to hold on to.
The manufacturing report from the
Philadelphia branch of the Federal
Reserve sent bond prices up and turned
stocks lower in morning trading. The
stock market recovered before noon,
then spent most of the day with slight
gains until shortly after 3 p.m.
Thats when news crossed that John
Williams, head of the Federal Reserves
San Francisco branch, told an audience
that the Fed could end its bond-buying
program this year. But Williams com-
ments made clear that the Fed would
only curtail its stimulus effort when the
economy looked strong enough.
Within the last hour of trading, the S&P
500 dropped 5 points.
Cisco jumped 13 percent, or $2.68,
to $23.89. The network-equipment
maker turned in quarterly results late
Wednesday that beat analysts expecta-
tions, with the help of better revenue
from the U.S. and emerging markets.
Ciscos performance is often considered
a gauge of the technology industrys
strength, and tech stocks fared better
than the rest of the market Thursday.
Technology was the only one of the 10
industry groups in the S&P 500 index
to close higher.
The Nasdaq composite index lost
6.37 points to 3,465.24, a drop of 0.2
percent.
Wal-Mart fell 2 percent. The worlds
largest retailer turned in weaker sales
and a dim forecast for prots. The com-
pany blamed bad weather and delayed
tax refunds for earnings and sales that
fell short of what analysts had expect-
ed. Wal-Marts stock lost $1.36 to
$78.50.
Companies have reported record quar-
terly profits this earnings season.
Seven of every 10 in the S&P 500 have
trumped analysts earnings estimates,
according to S&P Capital IQ. Earnings
have climbed 5 percent over the year
before.
But revenue has looked weak: six out
of every 10 companies in the S&P 500
have missed forecasts, and revenue has
edged up just 1 percent. Without higher
sales, companies are getting more of
their prots from laying off staff and
other cost-cutting moves.
Scott King, an investment adviser at
Unied Trust Co. in Lexington, Ky. ,
said that if the market is going to keep
climbing this year, sales will have to
start rising. Analysts are looking for
that to happen as economic growth
gains strength later this year.
Its hard to see how companies can
squeeze more earnings growth out of
cost savings, King said. At some
point, the economic numbers and rev-
enue have to pick up.
The Philadelphia branch of the
Federal Reserve reported that manufac-
turers in the region said business condi-
tions slumped this month. Orders for
manufactured goods and shipments
have been weak.
In Washington, the Labor
Department reported that the number of
Americans seeking unemployment
benets rose last week to 360,000.
That suggests companies are laying
more people off, just one week after
applications for benets hit a ve-year
low.
The yield on the 10-year Treasury
note dropped to 1.88 percent from 1.94
percent late Wednesday. Its a sign that
traders are shifting money into lower-
risk investments like U.S. government
debt.
Late fade on Wall Street; Wal-Mart, Disney slump
By David Koeing
FORTWORTH, Texas In a quest to speed
up the boarding process, American Airlines
is letting passengers board sooner if they
travel lightly.
The airline said Thursday that people car-
rying just a personal item that ts under the
seat no rolling suitcases will be
allowed to board before most other passen-
gers.
American said that the change will allow
ights to take off sooner, helping the air-
line improve its on-time performance.
Airline ofcials say boarding times have
increased in the last few years. The airlines
have created this problem by cutting back
ights, which makes planes more crowded,
and also charging fees for checking bag-
gage, which encourages passengers to haul
their luggage on board.
The result can be sharp-elbowed competi-
tion for scarce bin space that leads to short
tempers among passengers and ight atten-
dants.
American tested the new boarding proce-
dure at seven airports earlier this year and
began applying it to all ights Thursday.
Passengers carrying just a personal item
such as a purse, backpack or computer bag
that ts under the seat will board right after
Group 1 premium passengers and before
groups 2, 3 and 4.
The airline said that it will let passengers
check a carry-on bag at the gate at no
charge. That means savvy travelers will be
able to move up in the boarding order and
avoid checked-bag fees $25 for the rst
bag, $35 for a second on ights within the
U.S. although theyll have to retrieve
their bag at baggage claim after they land.
If it works as designed, light travelers will
be seated quickly. Fewer people will be stuck
behind the inevitable guy who takes too
long to hoist his rolling bag into an over-
head bin and position it to his liking.
Kevin Doeksen, director of customer plan-
ning for American, said the change will cut
boarding time by about two minutes per
ight, which doesnt sound like much, but
it adds up throughout the day.
If the change results in fewer big bags
being rolled on the plane, it could reduce the
number of ights on which the overhead
bins ll up. When the bins are stuffed, gate
agents or ight attendants must ask passen-
gers in the last boarding group to surrender
their bag for gate-checking an awkward
situation all around.
Competition for bin space has also made
travel more stressful. Passengers in the last
boarding groups often creep forward and
jockey for position to be the rst in their
group on the plane.
Theyre anxious because theyve got a
big roll-aboard (bag with wheels) and
theyre worried about having no space in the
bin, Doeksen said.
Travel experts think Americans idea can
speed up boarding if enough passengers
leave their rolling bags behind.
Chris Lopinto, president of
ExpertFlyer.com, said the key could be
Americans offer to check bags at the gate
for free.
American will favor passengers without roller bags

NEW YORK The legacy of J.C.
Penneys former CEO continues to cast a
dark cloud over the department-store chain.
Penney on Thursday reported that it
widened its loss in the rst quarter on a 16
percent plunge in revenue. It marks the fth
straight quarter that the struggling company
has posted massive declines.
The results show that Penney is still reel-
ing from the turnaround plan orchestrated
by its former CEO Ron Johnson, who was
ousted last month after less than a year and a
half on the job.
The plan included getting rid of most sales
and coupons in favor of everyday low
prices, bringing in hip brands like Joe
Fresh and remaking outdated stores. But the
changes that were meant to attract younger,
wealthier shoppers, wound up turning off
loyal Penney customers who like sales and
basic merchandise like loose-fitting
khakis.
Penney last month rehired Johnsons
predecessor, Mike Ullman, who is adding
back sales and bringing back some basics.
The company also conrmed that Goldman
Sachs will provide $1.75 million in nanc-
ing, a move that eases worries that Penney
could run out of cash this year.
But the Plano, Texas-based chain still
faces big hurdles. Penney lost $348 mil-
lion, or $1.58 per share, during the three
months that ended on May 4. That compares
with a loss of $163 million, or 75 cents per
share, in the year-ago period. Revenue
dropped 16.4 percent to $2.63 billion.
Wall Street had expected a loss of $1.06
per share on revenue of $2.65 billion,
according to research rm FactSet. Revenue
at stores opened at least a year one meas-
ure of a retailers health fell 16.6 percent.
That was worse than the 15 percent drop
analysts predicted.
Penney blamed the revenue declines,
which actually look better because they are
being compared with big drops in the year-
ago period, on old pricing and marketing
strategies under Johnson. But the 1,100-
store chain also said that construction to
revamp its home departments in some
stores also hurt sales.
J.C. Penney posts bigger 1Q loss than expected
By Anne DInnocenzio
NEWYORK The rst few months of the
year were tough for Wal-Mart Stores Inc.
The worlds largest retailer reported
Thursday that its rst-quarter prot edged up
just slightly, and the company struggled
with a sales slump in its namesake business
during the three-month period. The dis-
counter also offered a quarterly prot out-
look that came below Wall Streets projec-
tions. Its stock fell on the news.
Wal-Mart blamed a litany of factors affect-
ing its budget-conscious customers, includ-
ing a payroll tax increase, delayed tax
refunds, job worries and bad weather. It is the
latest in a string of big-name, consumer com-
panies from McDonalds to Macys, to cite
such hurdles in the rst quarter of the year.
Frankly, we had a more difcult quarter
than expected, said Wal-Marts President and
CEO Mike Duke in a pre-recorded call.
Wal-Mart is considered an economic bell-
wether because the retailer accounts for nearly
10 percent of nonautomotive retail spending
in the U.S. The latest results indicate that
many American households with lower
incomes continue to struggle even as the job
and housing markets improve.
This is a reality check for Wal-Marts low-
income shoppers, said Brian Sozzi, CEO and
chief equities strategist at Belus Capital
Advisers. The low-income shopper is even
more nancially stressed than people real-
ize.
Wal-Marts first quarter profit, sales disappoint
William Lyon Homes
rises in first day on NYSE
NEW YORK Shares of homebuilder
William Lyon Homes rose 2 percent after the
companys stock was sold to the public
Thursday.
The stock, which had been trading over the
counter before its debut Thursday on the New
York Stock Exchange, closed at $25.50, up
50 cents from its starting price of $25.
Shares of William Lyons that had traded
over the counter closed at $29.70 Wednesday
after a reverse stock split, which reduced the
amount of shares available. The reverse
stock split gave investors 1 new share for
every 8.25 they owned.
William Lyon Homes is the latest compa-
ny in the real estate industry to go public.
Last month, Taylor Morrison Home Corp.
began trading publicly. Before that, TRI
Pointe Homes Inc. went public in January,
real estate investor Silver Bay Realty Trust
Corp. in December and real estate services
provider Realogy Holdings Inc. in October.
William Lyons Thursday trading debut
came as the government released mixed
results for the housing market in April.
The Commerce Department said U.S.
builders broke ground on fewer homes, but
most of the decline was in apartment con-
struction, which can be very volatile on a
month-to-month basis. Applications for
new construction reached a ve-year peak,
evidence the housing revival will continue.

CSM has three big tests upcoming
Big weekend in CCS softball

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Dont call it an upset.
From Day 1, Burlingames base-
ball team has always shown their
talent to be great. And on Thursday
during the first round of the
Central Coast Section Division II
playoffs against Los Gatos, the
Panthers put together the game of
their season thus far.
No. 13 Burlingame beat No. 4
Los Gatos 2-0 behind a masterful
pitching gem by Tommy Cauleld.
The left-hander dazzled in throw-
ing the shutout. The win means
Burlingame will play No. 5
Willow Glen in the second round
of CCS Saturday at Bellarmine
College Prep. First pitch is sched-
ule for 10 a.m.
I cant say enough about how
well he pitched today, said
Burlingame head coach Shawn
Scott. He had a really loose arm
and his movement was outstand-
ing. He wasnt trying to throw the
ball past anybody, which is some-
thing we talked about before the
game. And he threw strike one all
day long.
The Panthers were the beneci-
aries of a Los Gatos error in the
third that led to a pair of runs. After
a drag bunt to start the frame and a
stolen base, Los Gatos committed
a throwing error that allowed a run
to score. Then, another ineld hit
gave the Panthers a 2-0 lead.
Their pitcher was outstanding,
too, Scott said. Thats our base-
ball game close game, good job
defensively, put the ball in play
and put the pressure on their
defense.
Burlingame will send Grant
Goodman out to the hill against
Willow Glen.
We are set up pretty good right
now, Scott said. Obviously, we
know Willow Glen comes from a
really tough league. Its not like

Dear CSM softball, be careful
what you wish for.
The College of San Mateo soft-
ball team is back in the California
Community College Athletic
Associations Final Four for the
rst time since 2000. With that
fact in hand, and as the consensus
No. 1 team in the state, youd
think CSM must be feeling pretty
good as they make it down to the
Dean and Adah Gay Complex over
at Bakerseld College.
But the truth is, the teams that
await the Bulldogs are of the rude-
welcoming variety. And now that
its nally on the states biggest
stage, CSM will need the perform-
ance of a lifetime to bring a state
title back to the 650.
Palomar, CSMs Friday evening
opponent, is the No. 2 seed from
southern California they n-
ished second in the Pacific
Conference and are undefeated at
neutral sites this year.
The Comets are a team with lots
of power. At 50 home runs, they
easily were the most long-ball ori-
ented in the Pacic Coast and that
total would have put them rst in
the Coast Conference North
Division 18 ahead of the
Bulldogs. Not only are they a
powerful team, theyre very selec-
tive in the strike zone. They drew
94 walks and struck out just 91

And then there were three.
What started as a seven-team
stand for San Mateo County has
dwindled down to three in the
Central Coast Section softball
playoffs. In fact, the only teams
to survive the rst round of play
were teams who earned early byes.
Sequoia, Woodside, Menlo
School and Notre Dame-Belmont
are gone.
Only Carlmont (Division I),
Hillsdale ((Division II) and Half
Moon Bay (Division III) remain.
If they were to survive the week-
end, the trio would head to the CCS
seminal round next week with
sites and actual dates yet to be
determined.
No. 3 Carlmont vs.
No. 6 Salinas
at Hawes Park, noon
After Los Gatos Kim Showalter
shut down Salinas for four
innings, the Cowboys finally
broke through in the top of fth
with two runs and then added six
more in the sixth to come away
with an 8-0 win.
Salinas denitely has the offen-
sive firepower to contend with
Rebecca Faulkner and the rest of
the Scots and theyre now riding a
stretch of softball where theyve
gone 5-1.

OAKLAND Slow at the start of the series and strong at the
end, the San Antonio Spurs wore out the Golden State Warriors
the way they have so many other opponents.
Tim Duncan had 19 points and six rebounds, Kawhi Leonard
added 16 points and 10 rebounds and the Spurs held off a furious
nal rally to beat the Warriors 94-82 in Game
6 on Thursday night and advance to the
Western Conference nals.
Theyve got great character. Theyre com-
petitive. They know theres not a million
chances to do this sort of thing. They wanted
it, Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said.
Tony Parker shook off a poor start to score 10 of his 13 points
in the fourth quarter and Tiago Splitter added a career-playoff
high 14 points for San Antonio, which had a 13-point lead in the
third quarter dissolve to two in the nal minutes.
Stephen Curry shot 10 of 25 from the oor to score 22 points
on a nagging left ankle, and Jarrett Jack had 15 points as the
injury-saddled Warriors nally tired. The Spurs outshot Golden
State 45 percent to 39 percent and outrebounded them 46 to 40.
Second-seeded San Antonio will open the conference nals at
home against Memphis on Sunday. The fth-seeded Grizzlies

As get insight from Hall of Famer Henderson
By Janie McCauley
OAKLAND Rickey Henderson bounced
through the Oakland clubhouse from one
player to the next, one corner to the other,
with a stop at the breakfast table to greet a few
more guys before moving
on to meet with Daric
Barton by his locker.
The high-energy
Henderson helped awaken
a tired group Wednesday
just 11 hours after losing
in extra innings to the
rival Texas Rangers.
The Hall of Famer sure
has been a positive inu-
ence in his role as roving
instructor for the reigning AL West champi-
ons. From offering instruction on the art of
baserunning and sliding technique to hitting
and even mental approach, Henderson is
doing a little bit of everything while back in
his old green and gold As uniform at age 54.
Baseballs career stolen base leader is lov-
ing this gig.
Its just basically about a comfort level,
going out there and believing in yourself,
Henderson said of enduring the tough stretch-
es. Youre going to go through a little bit of
an up and down, keep ghting. The games
always a battle. Make sure that you know who
you are and what youre doing, then go out
there with that approach and have some fun.
Theyre not worrying about the losing streak.
I dont think we ever worried about this los-
ing streak.
With all of his accomplishments in 2 1/2
decades as a major leaguer, Henderson is quick
to point to his failures along the way. The As
returned from a rough 3-7 road trip, then lost
for the eighth time in 10 games in a 6-2 defeat
to Texas on Wednesday.
Hes a Hall of Famer, he was a guy that
took ballgames over as a leadoff hitter,
power, speed, defense, said Rangers manag-
er Ron Washington, previously a longtime
As third base coach. When Rickey was on in
his day, he caused problems.
Before the series nale with rst-place
Texas, the animated Henderson waved his
right arm as he spoke and accidentally made
contact with A.J. Grifns chest as the pitch-
er walked by on his way outside.
Oh, Rickey! Grifn hollered.
Oh, Rickey! copied reliever Ryan Cook.
Rickeys here! yelled former catcher
turned broadcaster Ray Fosse from a few feet
away in the kitchen.
For a fun-loving, loose bunch, Henderson
ts in perfectly.
If those guys over in that clubhouse shut
off what Rickey has to say, then somethings
wrong with them, because when Im around
Rickey, we force him to talk, Washington
said. He gets excited about talking about
baseball. We want to hear the stories, and
once he gets started, he gets animated and we
just love it. Thats Rickey, its always been.
The stumbling As are determined to get
their winning, walkoff whipped-cream pie
swagger back in a hurry. They had a day off
Thursday before opening a weekend series at
home with the Royals on Friday night.
Manager Bob Melvin is eager to change the
franchises long trend of slow starts while
maintaining the traditional second-half
surges and if the energetic Henderson can
give these boys a boost, then all the better.
Henderson mentored Cuban defector Yoenis
Cespedes as a rookie last season, when he
made the shift from center eld to left.
We all know that he has so much experi-
ence in baseball, Cespedes said. We all
should listen to his advice because we can
learn a lot. Last year he was a big help with
my baserunning form, and how to do it.
Henderson said he often reaches out to the
players rst rather than waiting for them to
come to him.
Im here just to talk and ease their mind,
how to get rid of the frustration part, he said.
They put so much pressure on themselves.
Youve got to relax.
That upbeat attitude resonates with the
young As .
Washington, who left the As seven years
ago to become the Texas manager, credits
Hendersons work with Coco Crisps strides
as an aggressive baserunner in the leadoff
spot, and even the progress by departed
speedster Rajai Davis of the Toronto Blue
Jays.
Look how their base stealing prowess has
taken off. Rickeys presence has a lot to do
with that, because he was the best at picking
pockets, the very best, Washington said.
You knew he was running and you still could-
nt stop him.
And he was never satised with just get-
ting to second base. He was always satised
with one thing: crossing home plate. Thats
why he got to third so quick, so he could
touch home plate. Whether he hit it out of the
park, whether he walked, whether he got a
base hit, he got to third base. Talent. I love
Rickey.
With that constant smile and positive
approach, Henderson is a popular presence.
Not to mention the credentials he brings
to the job.

Cabrillo pitcher Julian Garcia got work in both games of
a May 11 postseason doubleheader, but his Seahawks
Cinderella run came to an end in the California Community
College Northern California Super Regional playoffs.
After triumphing 8-4 over Sierra in the May 10 opener,
Cabrillo lost two straight, dropping the May 11 morning
game 9-0 to Feather River, before being eliminated in the
afternoon game 5-3 against Sierra. Feather River ultimately
swept through the double-elimination tourney to advance to
the CCCBCA State Championship Series, which begins
today at Fresno City College.
Garcia a former Half Moon Bay standout worked 2/3
of an inning in relief against Feather River, then took the
start in the elimination nightcap. The sophomore right-
hander worked six innings against Sierra, allowing ve
runs on eight hits to take the loss.
After [Sierra] scored the fth run, and it was my last
inning, I was pretty disappointed about it, Garcia said. I
didnt really let that affect me, because I had a great season
overall. I really did give it my all. When I came out of the
game I was gassed. I was so tired. But I have no regrets about
that game, and Im proud of how far I got through that
game.
Cabrillo wrote quite the comeback story this season,
returning from the abyss of a 5-15 record to nish the regu-
lar season with an 18-18 record the minimum requirement
for a team to qualify for the postseason without an outright
conference championship. The Seahawks shared co-cham-
pion honors with Monterey Peninsula in the Coast Pacic
Conference.
With a win over Sierra in the Super Regional opener,
Cabrillo assured itself of nishing above the .500 mark this
year. The Seahawks close with a 21-20 overall record. And
they were riding high after their Super Regional Game 1
win.
We had the mentality that nobody could touch us, that we
had the momentum that nobody else had, Garcia said. We
just needed two more wins to make it to [the state champi-
onships], and that was a really big thing for us. That was
one of the goals. We didnt really expect to lose two games
in row, but we gave it our all. We dont have any regrets.
After falling to Feather River in Game 2, Cabrillo faced an
elimination-game rematch with Sierra. Cabrillo jumped out
to an early lead with a three-run rally in the second. But
Sierra drew within one run in the fourth, before taking the
lead on a squeeze play in the fth.
That was their momentum to come back, Garcia said.
The later innings they got the best of me, and got a few
hits. Before I knew it, it was 5-3 in the sixth inning.
Theyre a really good team. They have really good hitting,
and they knew how to hit good pitchers well.
Along with Feather River, Santa Rosa advances to the
State Championship Series. Santa Rosa owns the best over-
all record in the state at 33-7-1, and earned a co-conference
crown with Sierra in the Big 8. Cypress and Fullerton
advance from Southern California to round out the Final
Four.
Double-elimination play begins today between Santa
Rosa and Cypress at Fresno City College. First pitch is
slated for noon. All games are scheduled for radio broadcast
at www.socalcollegesports.com.
CCCAA baseball Final 4 set Late goals stun the Sharks, now down 2-0
LOS ANGELES Captain Dustin
Brown tied it with 1:43 left and Trevor
Lewis scored the tiebreaking power-
play goal 22 seconds later, propelling
the Los Angeles Kings to a stunning
4-3 victory over the San Jose Sharks
on Thursday night and a 2-0 series
lead.
Brown scored during a 5-on-3 advan-
tage and Lewis provided the winner on
a loose puck with 1:21 left, sending
Staples Center into shocked celebra-
tion. The defending Stanley Cup
champions won their 12th straight
home game since March and their
sixth straight postseason game.
Marc-Edouard Vlasic scored his rst
career playoff goal with 11:04 to play
for the Sharks, who were doomed by
two late penalties after rallying from
an early two-goal decit.
Jonathan Quick made 28 saves for
the Kings, and Antti Niemi stopped 27
shots for the Sharks.
Game 3 is Saturday night at the
Shark Tank.
Patrick Marleau and Brad Stuart
scored second-period goals for the
Sharks, who largely dominated the
rst two periods with another barrage
of superior speed and skill. Los
Angeles got rolling in the third period
and with two late goals, the Kings
landed one of the most amazing victo-
ries in their relatively thin playoff
history.
Jeff Carter scored on the Kings rst
shot and added an assist on Browns
goal in front of Niemi. Drew Doughty
scored an early power-play goal for
Los Angeles.
After Vlasics score on a rebound,
the Sharks seemed to be cruising to a
win until Stuart was whistled for
tripping with 2:41 to play. Just 22
seconds later, Vlasic joined him in the
box when he shot the puck over the
glass, although Vlasic claimed the
puck had deected off Carter.
The Kings scored a minute later,
with Brown pounding home his sec-
ond goal of the postseason. Lewis got
the winner shortly after the ensuing
faceoff, nding a loose puck on the
back side of a scrum in front of Niemi.
Lewis hadnt scored in the postseason,
but the depth forward scored two goals
in the Kings Cup-clinching win over
New Jersey last June.
The Kings played without veteran
center Jarret Stoll, who didnt return to
Game 1 after a hit from San Joses
Raf Torres late in the second period.
Torres was suspended for the rest of the
series Thursday by the NHLs
Department of Player Safety for his
illegal check to the head after a hear-
ing in New York.
Brad Richardson contributed a key
power-play assist while lling in for
Stoll.
Los Angeles has won six straight
home playoff games dating to last sea-
sons Stanley Cup clincher, but none
was more surprising than this victory.
The Sharks appeared to be sure Quick
couldnt steal another win after the
Kings took the opener despite getting
outshot 35-20.
Quicks streak of more than 125
minutes of shutout hockey ended in
the second period with two quick
goals.
SPORTS 14
times as a team. The Comets come into their
matchup with the Bulldogs hitting .361.
Breanna Parker leads the offensive
charge. The sophomore is hitting .492 on
the year with 14 big ies and 61 runs batted
in. Help comes in the way of Carlie Daniel
(.468/.484/.844, 11 HRs, 51 RBIs) and
Maren Lebsock (.400, 22 RBIs). The
Comets wont beat you with their speed
its about the long ball.
In the circle, the Bulldogs might see
either Parker or Daniel. Both have 14 wins
on the year and very similar earned run aver-
ages (3.41 and 3.30 respectively). Parker
has better strikeout stuff and doesnt walk
many. But Daniel, just a freshman, is very
capable as well.
If the Bulldogs make it past Palomar in
Game 1, they can see either Riverside City
College or Shasta College.
Shasta went 20-0 in winning the Golden
Valley and 39-7 overall. Two of those loss-
es came in a two-day stretch against the
College of San Mateo in early February (3-2
and 8-4 outcomes).
But the scouting report on Shasta is simi-
lar to Palomars the Knights can swing
the stick with power. They hit 38 homers in
2013, by far the most in the conference. As
a team, the Knights hit .354 and boast a
healthy .424 on-base percentage. They also
come in averaging 7.6 runs a game and have
a great deal of team speed 66 steals, good
for rst in conference.
Racie Carrel leads a balanced offensive
attack. Shes hitting .515 on the season
with a .547 on-base percentage. Stopping
her from wreaking havoc on the bases will
be important for CSM.
Carrel isnt alone. Noele Blake and Ally
Wimer are two other players to pay very
close attention to combined, theyve
driven in 75 runs for the Knights. Blake was
rst on the team with nine homers. And
while she only hit .303, Brianna Brothers
is not a player with whom the Bulldogs
want to relax.
In the circle, two freshmen lead the way.
The Bulldogs will most likely run into
Megan McColpin and her 2.05 ERA. She
struck out 126 in 133 innings. Kayla Spini
and her 2.72 ERA is a formidable No. 2
option for the Knights.
Riverside College is the Souths answer
to the College of San Mateo. At 42-4, they
possess the states most wins a distinc-
tion the Bulldogs had for the majority of the
season.
And if you thought Palomar and Shasta
were scary good at the plate, well, the Tigers
are horror-movie status.
Check this out: .392 team batting aver-
age, .459 on-base percentage, .649 slug-
ging, 69 home runs, 64 stolen bases, 155
walks, 104 doubles and almost 500 team
hits (491).
Whoa is right.
The Tigers have ve hitters who deserve
dangerous status. Chief among them in
Natalie Barrios and her .500 batting aver-
age. Shes got a scary 1.146 slugging per-
centage and accounted for 24 home runs.
Shes also got 25 steals.
But Katherine Macias (.455, 18 HRs, 50
RBIs), Gina Grijalva (.445, 7, 42), Alexus
Daniels (.411 average) and Courtney Brown
(.411, 10 HRs, 55 RBIs) can also give CSM
major problems.
Speaking of Macias, the bulk of the
pitching will probably fall on her shoul-
ders. Shes got a 2.20 ERA. Tori Sadiak is
more than capable as well.
As a team, the Tigers have only allowed
just 77 runs.
The CCCAA Final Four is a double elimi-
nation tournament with the championship
game to be played on Sunday at noon
with Game 2, if necessary, at 2 p.m.
Saturdays game will be a rematch of last
years CCS seminal when Carlmont came
away with a thrilling 2-1 win.
Keep an eye out for Carlmonts newest
addition to the PAL Bay Division Player of
the Year club: Taylor Yzaguirre.
The Cowboys are trying to reach their
rst CCS nal since 1998. That was also the
last time Salinas won it all.
No. 3 Hillsdale vs. No. 11 St. Ignatius
at Hawes Park, 10 a.m.
Apparently, the seedlings mean very lit-
tle to Carrie McKewan and the rest of the St.
Ignatius Wildcats. McKewan threw a com-
plete-game one-hitter in the rst round to
take down No. 6 Pioneer. The Wildcats took
advantage of three errors and scored all three
of their runs in the fth inning two of
them were unearned with Tara Fallahee pick-
ing up the other RBI.
No doubt the Wildcats are a dangerous
team right now. McKewan and Fallahee was
the tip of the iceberg. Katie Thomson and
Rachel Garrison are also dangerous. And in
that Pioneer win, McKewan added six strike-
outs to her years total bringing her to
193.
Heres the good news: Hillsdale has suc-
cessful, recent history against the Wildcats.
The Knights took down S.I. 2-1 in a game
played back on Feb. 26 with Hillsdale scor-
ing runs in the fourth and sixth. The
Knights were actually outhit 5-3 in that
game, and they committed two errors, but
somehow found a way to win. PAL Bay co-
MVP Courtney Tyler had an RBI in that
game. Eryn McCoy picked up the win.
No. 2 Half Moon Bay vs. No. 10 Carmel
at Hawes Park, 2 p.m.
Speaking of upset-minded teams, the
Carmel Padres pulled off a smaller shocker
by taking down No. 7 Scotts Valley in the
rst round.
As expected, Brittany File was sensation-
al for Carmel in the win. File picked up her
15th win of the year and will bring that
same dominant attitude (5.5 to 1 strikeout-
to-walk ratio, .125 opponents batting
average) to the game against the Cougars.
File is the biggest reason why a team like
Carmel can hit just .270 as a team and still
go 9-3 in league play. Offensively, Angela
Savoldi and Alexandra Franklin are two
solid weapons that complement File.
And just like Carlmonts game with
Salinas, this too will be a rematch of last
years CCS tournament. Half Moon Bay
came out on top 1-0.

Happy to be back on domestic soil;
Cain, Pagan lead Giants to the win
By Pat Graham
DENVER Angel Pagan hit a
tiebreaking two-run single in the
sixth inning, Matt Cain settled
down after a shaky start and the
San Francisco Giants won their
10th straight
over Colorado,
rallying from a
six-run deficit
to beat the
Rockies 8-6 on
T h u r s d a y
night.
B r a n d o n
Crawford added
a three-run dou-
ble to help San
Francisco and Marco Scutaro
extended his hitting streak to 15
games.
The NLWest-leading Giants also
extended their mastery over the
Rockies, improving to 31-9 since
2011.
Cain (3-2) struggled early, giv-
ing up homers on consecutive
pitches to Todd Helton and Nolan
Arenado in the second, along with
a three-run homer to Wilin Rosario
an inning later.
After that, Cain found his
rhythm before being pulled with
an out in the seventh. In 6 1-3
innings, he gave up nine hits but
still moved to 3-0 this month.
Jeremy Affeldt held the Rockies
hitless in two innings of relief
work before handing the ball over
to closer Sergio Romo, who got
two outs to earn his 13th save in
15 chances. The Rockies only had
one hit after Rosarios home run.
Jhoulys Chacin (3-3) was solid
early before the hard-throwing
righty fell apart. He yielded a sea-
son-high eight runs in 5 1-3
innings to a powerful Giants line-
up that came into the game hitting
an NL-best .267.
With this performance, Chacins
ERA soared
from 2.70 to
4. 07.
Trailing by
six, the Giants
climbed back
into the game
with a ve-run
fourth inning.
Brandon Belt
brought in a
run with a
walk, with Crawford later adding a
bases-clearing double. Cain also
got into the scoring act, driving
in Crawford with a single. It was
Cains second RBI of the season.
Gregor Blanco tied the game in
the sixth with a sacrice y to cen-
ter. Pagan gave the Giants an 8-6
lead with a two-out, two-run single
over the head of reliever Adam
Ottavino, who was brought in for
Chacin.
Cain struggled with his com-
mand early. He gave up three runs
each in the second and third
innings. Cain allowed back-to-
back homers to Helton and
Arenado. Helton stood at home
plate to watch his two-run homer
not so much to admire his hand-
iwork as see if it would curve foul.
It didnt and he trotted around the
bases.
On the next offering from Cain,
Arenado lined a 91 mph fastball
into the seats in left-center. It was
his fourth homer of the season.
Rosario had the big blow in the
third, hitting a three-run homer to
right. Cain has allowed 13 homers
this year. He gave up 21 all of last
season and just nine in 2011.
Instead of accompanying the
team to Toronto for a two-game
series, Cain arrived a day early in
Denver. His teammates gave him
grief over the move, but manager
Bruce Bochy insisted it made
sense.
Its the right thing to do,
Bochy said.
Before the game, Colorado jug-
gled its roster by placing left-han-
der Jeff Francis (groin) on the 15-
day disabled and designated
inelder Reid Brignac for assign-
ment. The team also recalled
inelder D.J. LeMahieu and right-
hander Rob Scahill from Triple-A
Colorado Springs.
LeMahieu had a pinch-hit single
in the sixth.
NOTES: Bochy said the plan
remains to pitch struggling RHP
Ryan Vogelsong on Monday. I
talked to Vogey for quite a while
and he said, Hey, if you need me in
the pen the next couple of days Im
available, Bochy said. Hes
earned some things, including a
longer leash. Thats something
hes earned. ... Giants LHP
Madison Bumgarner (4-1) will
take the mound Friday against the
Rockies, who will counter with
LHP Jorge De La Rosa (4-3). ...
Arenado made a diving grab at
third in the eighth to throw out
INF Brett Pill.

eliminated Oklahoma City in ve games.
The Spurs lost to the Thunder in the con-
ference nals in six games last season after
going ahead 2-0. They havent been to the
NBA Finals since 2007, when they won
their fourth title with a sweep of LeBron
James and the Cleveland Cavaliers.
The Spurs became the rst team to win
consecutive games in the series and hand
the Warriors consecutive losses in the play-
offs and they did it at just the right time.
The Spurs quieted a standing-room-only
crowd late in the third quarter and seemingly
seized control for good. Instead, the
Warriors roared back.
Klay Thompson, who had 10 points on 4-
for-12 shooting, made a 3-pointer early in
the fourth quarter that sliced San Antonios
lead to three. Then Currys pull-up jumper
brought the Warriors within 77-75 with
4:52 to play.
Parker was 1 for 13 before hitting a corner
3-pointer before Leonard followed with two
free throws to put the Spurs up seven.
Jack made a jumper and two free throws to
bring the Warriors back again. Then
Leonard hit another corner 3-pointer for the
Spurs to go ahead 85-79.
Curry and Thompson each had consecu-
tive 3s rim out on the same possession that
couldve kept Golden State close. But Parker
hit another 3-pointer to put San Antonio up
88-79 with 1:15 remaining and send some
of the yellow-shirted crowd of 19,596 head-
ing to the exits.
In the end, most still stuck around.
Fans serenaded the home team with chants
of Warr-i-ors! in the nal seconds. Curry
also grabbed the microphone after the game
and thanked fans at half court, breaking the
huddle with the crowd, Just us!
The Warriors had only made the playoffs
once since 1994 before this season and had-
nt won two games after the rst round since
1977.
Its inspiring to think of what we were
able to accomplish this year and the founda-
tion that has been laid, Warriors coach
Mark Jackson said.
The Spurs showed incredible ball move-
ment and had the Warriors playing from
behind most of the way. San Antonios rst
10 eld goals came on an assist, going
ahead by 10 points in the second quarter and
maintaining that cushion until late.

Beckham retires; has major impact on U.S. soccer
Ask someone in Asia or Europe a decade
ago what they knew about the Galaxy, and
odds are the answer would have been limited
to planets or stars. Nowadays, its likely to
include a reference to Beckhams team, the
Major League Soccer franchise in Los
Angeles.
By making the growth of soccer in the
United States his pet project, David
Beckham put the sport on a fast track, giv-
ing it the kind of legitimacy and visibility
it would have taken decades to reach on its
own. He spiked interest and attendance in
MLS among both fans and corporate
America, and sales of his jersey gave the
league visibility around the globe.
He brought relevancy and credibility,
which is something that U.S. soccer, and
maybe even moreso Major League Soccer,
has and continues to crave, said Alexi
Lalas, an ESPN analyst who was the general
manager of the Los Angeles Galaxy when
Beckham arrived in 2007. When people
think now about Major League Soccer, they
think about David Beckham. When people
think about Major League Soccer now, the
rst team they think of is the Los Angeles
Galaxy and that is because of David
Beckham and the power of that brand.
I think, many years from now, well look
back at the arrival of David Beckham as, not
the most important and one of many, but
certainly a very important platform from
which Major League Soccer and soccer in
general in the United States used to evolve.
And though Beckham said Thursday he
will retire when the French season ends May
26, his impact in the United States will con-
tinue. Beckham was given the right to pur-
chase an expansion MLS team, the second
team in New York excluded, and has said
repeatedly he plans to exercise that option
when hes done playing.
Contrary to the naysayers who dismiss
soccer as a game for kids to grow out of, the
sport had already established a solid
foothold when Beckham arrived. The United
States hosted a wildly successful World Cup
in 1994. MLS was more than a decade old,
and there was enough interest in the interna-
tional game to support three English-lan-
guage TV channels devoted almost exclu-
sively to soccer as well as another in
Spanish. American players were no longer
oddities in the top European leagues, and it
wasnt just goalkeepers.
were going up against a cupcake. Well go
play and see what happens.
WESTMONT 8, MILLS 3
A Cinderella-esque kind of year struck
midnight for the Mills baseball team.
Up 1-0 after one inning, the Vikings
could not figure out Westmont High
Schools starting pitcher after that point
and the wheels came off late. Thus, Mills
lost 8-3.
The Vikings had that 1-0 lead going into
the third, but a pair of unearned runs gave
Westmont the momentum.
It really changed the game, said Mills
head coach Tony Adornetto. We had to
ght back the whole time.
The ght proved too tough against Lucas
Erceg, whos headed to the University of
California at Berkeley.
Mills pushed two more runs across in the
seventh, but that was after Westmont
scored ve times in the sixth to break
things open.
We went 1-8 heading into league,
Adornetto said, which wasnt the start we
were looking for obviously. But, some-
thing clicked with these guys once league
started. We were in every game we played
this year. Its been a few years since weve
gotten to CCS. So, hopefully, itll start to
turn around for us and well keep it
rolling.

Just how involved, he says,

MENLO SCHOOL MOCK
TRIAL TEAM HONORED ON
LAWDAY. Law Day was celebrat-
ed May 1 at the Crowne Plaza
Hotel in Burlingame during a
luncheon that honored the winners
of the 29th Annual San Mateo
County Mock Trial Competition.
This years County champions
were from Menlo School in
Atherton, which also placed third
in the statewide competition. Law
Day Sponsors included the
Constitutional Rights
Foundation, the San Mateo
County Bar Association, the San
Mateo County Ofce of Education
and the San Mateo County Trial
Lawyers Association.
In 1980, the Constitutional
Rights Foundation (CRF) created
the Mock Trial program to help
students acquire a working knowl-
edge of the judicial system, devel-
op analytical abilities and commu-
nication skills and gain an under-
standing of their obligations and
responsibilities as participating
members of society.
Each year, CRF creates and pro-
duces a new set of Mock Trial
materials based on an important
issue facing Americas youth. The
materials include a hypothetical
criminal case (including sum-
maries of case law, witness state-
ments, ofcial exhibits and sim-
plied rules of evidence); lesson
plans on the central issues in the
case; and competition rules and
guidelines.
With the assistance of teacher-
sponsors and attorney coaches,
CRFs Mock Trial program
engages more than 8,000 student-
participants across the state of
California. Students actively
experience the excitement of
working in teams, exchanging
ideas, setting goals and examin-
ing issues, while interacting with
positive role models from their
communities. By studying the
case and preparing strategies and
arguments for trial, students also
develop presentation skills, ana-
lytic ability and team coopera-
tion.
Each year thousands of members
from Californias bar and bench
volunteer their time to make the
Mock Trial an educational and
exciting experience for students.
Attorneys serve in a variety of
roles, acting as team coaches,
scoring and presiding over trials.

CALIFORNIACELEBRATES
JUROR APPRECIATION
WEEK, MAY 1 3 - 1 7 . This year,
California celebrates the 16th
anniversary of Juror Appreciation
Week. In 1998, the California
Legislature designated the second
full week in May each year to
honor the important contribu-
tions of citizens who devote their
time and effort in making the
cherished right of trial by jury a
reality. 8,670,110 Californians
were summoned to jury service in
fiscal year 2010-11 and 164,512
were ultimately sworn to serve.
Hon. Tani Cantil-Sakauye Chief
Justice of California, said, Jury
service is the responsibility of
all qualified citizens, but it also is
an opportunity for us to partici-
pate directly in our system of jus-
tice and contribute to our commu-
nities. Trial by jury is one of the
fundamental ideals of American
democracy; serving as jurors
reminds us that these ideals exist
only as long as individual citi-
zens are willing to uphold them.

NEW YORK Loyalty pro-
grams at supermarkets used to be
as simple as getting access to the
cheaper advertised prices on
store shelves.
But as companies fight to hold
onto customers amid intensify-
ing competition, theyre using
shoppers purchasing histories
to offer more personalized deals.
Eventually, some say deals
could become so customized that
everyone is paying different
prices for the same item.
Theres going to come a point
where our shelf pricing is pretty
irrelevant because we can be so
personalized in what we offer
people, Safeway CEO Steve
Burd said in a call with analysts
earlier this year.
The company, which operates
chains including Vons and
Dominicks, rolled out its Just
For U loyalty program last year.
Other grocery store chains are
investing in more sophisticated
loyalty programs as well, given
the growing pressure they face
from big-box retailers, drug-
stores and dollar stores.
As companies step up their
loyalty programs, heres a look
at how they affect how much you
spend and what you buy.
BOOSTING SALES
Whenever you see any dis-
count, keep in mind that the
stores goal is always to get you
to spend more, not less.
Loyalty programs achieve this
in a couple different ways. To
start, your past shopping pat-
terns help companies better pre-
dict which new products you
might be inclined to buy. If
youre a natural food fan who
buys Kashi cereal, you might
start getting offers for a new
Luna bar flavor or Greek yogurt.
But its not just about convinc-
ing you to buy more stuff overall.
One of the problems facing the
supermarket industry is that peo-
ple are increasingly getting their
groceries from a variety of
sources. For example, someone
might get their dried pasta at
Target, meat at Whole Foods and
fruit at an independent, local
market.
The reality in the grocery
industry is that its very compet-
itive the average shopper
shops at five stores, said Mir
Aamir, president of customer
loyalty and digital technologies
at Safeway, which is based in
Pleasanton.
One of the goals of loyalty
programs is convincing you to
do more of your shopping in one
place. So a shopper whos buy-
ing baby wipes at a store but not
diapers might suddenly start get-
ting offers for the latter because
the company knows theres like-
ly a baby in that house.
By the same token, companies
can sense that theyve lost a cus-
tomer when you stop using the
loyalty card. The result might be
an uptick in special deal offers to
bring that customer back.
So even if you tend to get most
your groceries at a particular
store, it might be worth signing
up for loyalty programs at rival
stores or at least keeping an eye
on the prices theyre offering.
PERSONALIZED PRICING
All the data companies collect
when you use your loyalty card
helps them tailor their marketing
to you.
Kroger, the nations largest
traditional supermarket chain,
still has a traditional loyalty
program that gives shoppers the
special prices listed on shelves.
The Cincinnati-based company
also mails out personalized pack-
ets of coupons to its loyalty card
members several times through-
out the year.
The offers are based on past
purchases, meaning someone
who regularly buys Cheerios
might get offers for that cereal,
as well as milk and other related
items. But now, the company is
testing a program that also better
calibrates the exact level of the
discount offered to particular
shoppers.
Keith Dailey, a spokesman for
Kroger, declined to say where the
program is being tested and how
specific the offers get. But he
said the idea is partly to set more
consistent prices for shoppers
over a set period. So unlike a tra-
ditional coupon that is used only
once, you might be offered a dis-
count you can redeem multiple
times before a certain date.
The point is to encourage you
to become a regular shopper,
building a habit that leads to you
spending more money at a partic-
ular store over time.
Dailey says the pilot is an
extension of what weve been
doing for decades, because
coupons of any kind already lead
to people paying different prices
for the same items.
Still, the growing degree of
personalization is clearly res-
onating. Kroger, which also
operates Ralphs and Frys, notes
that 60 percent of customers cash
in at least one coupon from the
personalized packets theyre
mailed throughout the year. That
compares with less than 5 per-
cent for traditional coupon mail-
i ngs.
In addition to maximizing
sales, the benefit of such person-
alized pricing for companies is
that it becomes harder for com-
petitors to steal away customers
with better offers.
The price offered to the indi-
vidual customer is really between
the retailer and customer now,
said Euan White, senior vice
president of consumer markets at
Dunnhumby, which works with
Kroger and a wide range of retail-
ers to analyze shopping pat-
terns.
How loyalty programs influence the way you shop
Whenever you see any discount, keep in mind that the stores goal is always to get you to spend more, not less.

At heart, a quesadilla is pretty much a
Mexican grilled cheese. Take a tortilla,
stuff it with something savory, add some
cheese, fold it in half and toast it. Its also
pretty delicious.
I love any dish that includes melted
cheese, and its that much better when
Mexican ingredients are added to the mix.
But as much as I enjoy the standard recipe
for this widely loved treat, I was pretty sure
I could dream up a lighter version.
I quickly discovered that it doesnt take a
ton of cheese to avor and glue together
the llings of a quesadilla. as long as
you use full-fat cheese. I tried using 4
ounces of reduced-fat cheese, but I found the
avor to be so weak that my tasters didnt
know there was any cheese in the recipe. A
second attempt using 2 ounces of full-fat
sharp cheddar was an immediate hit.
The rest of the lling is vegetables. I
started by quickly cooking bell peppers
and onions over medium-high heat until
that magic moment when they were golden
at the edges but still retained their crunch. I
added mushrooms for two reasons depth
of avor and bulk. Carnivores like to think
of mushrooms as steak for vegetarians.
Any kind of mushroom would be welcome
here, but I favor a mix of cremini and shi-
itake.
Finally, as a big fan of chilies, I had to
toss in a jalapeno. But its your choice
whether to add the seeds and ribs, which
make the dish much hotter. Of course,
given that dairy and chilies tend to counter-
balance each other, the cheese in this
recipe will tamp down some of the heat.
A cast-iron skillet is the perfect pan in
which to cook this recipe or, if you happen
to own one, a Mexican comal, the pan usu-
ally used for making tortillas. If you use
your iron skillet often and care for it with
love, it becomes almost stick-resistant,
which means you wont need
much oil to cook the que-
sadillas. You also can grill
the assembled quesadillas
over low heat for a few min-
utes on each side to impart a
lovely smokiness.
These quesadillas also
would work well on a camp-
ing trip. Just chop all the
vegetables and grate the
cheese ahead of time and,
since there is no oven for
keeping them warm, you can
cook them and cut them up to share as they
are done. Finally, wherever and however
you cook these beauties, dont forget the
avocado, yogurt and cilantro garnish, an
important part of the nished product.
And if you throw together a quick
coleslaw to serve on the side dressing it
with lime juice and a tiny bit of vegetable
oil you can easily stretch this into a full
meal.
MUSHROOM, PEPPER
AND ONION QUESADILLAS
Start to nish: 30 minutes
Servings: 4
1 rm ripe avocado, diced
1 tablespoon lime juice
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
4 teaspoons vegetable oil, divided
1/2 cup chopped yellow onion
1/2 cup chopped red or green bell pepper
(or a mix)
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 1/2 cups assorted sliced mushrooms
1/2 fresh jalapeno, nely chopped (seeds
and ribs discarded, if desired)
2 ounces coarsely grated sharp cheddar
cheese
Four 8-inch flour tortillas, preferably
whole wheat
Nonfat plain Greek yogurt
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Heat the oven to 350 F.
In a small bowl, toss the diced avocado
with the lime juice and a bit of salt and pep-
per. Set aside.
In a large, preferably cast-iron skillet
over medium-high, heat 2 teaspoons of the
oil. Add the onion, bell pepper and a pinch
of salt, then saute until golden at the edges,
about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook,
stirring, for 30 seconds. Transfer the mix-
ture to a bowl.
Add the remaining 2 teaspoons of oil to
the skillet along with the mushrooms and a
pinch of salt. Reduce the heat to medium
and saute until the liquid the mushrooms
give off has evaporated, about 7 minutes.
Transfer the mushrooms to the bowl with
the onions and peppers. Add to it the
jalapeno, cheese and a bit of salt and pep-
per. Mix well.
Wipe out the skillet with a paper towel.
Coat it with cooking spray.
Set 2 of the tortillas at on the counter.
Divide the onion-pepper mixture between
them, spreading it evenly over each. Press
a second tortilla rmly over each.
Heat the skillet over medium. Add one
quesadilla and toast until golden, about 2
minutes per side. Transfer to a baking
sheet. Repeat with the second quesadilla,
placing it on the baking sheet when toast-
ed. Bake for 5 minutes, or until just heated
through. Cut each quesadilla into quarters,
then divide between 4 serving plates. Top
each serving with avocado, yogurt and
cilantro.

Walt Disney Co., which bought George
Lucas Lucaslm empire last year for $4.05
billion. The company is planning three
sequels and two stand-alone spinoff movies
focusing on characters from the Star Wars
universe.
Will Abrams direct the entire new trilogy?
Will he be involved in any of the spinoffs?
Will George Lucas play a mentoring role?
He cant say.
I never see myself doing anything more
than whats in front of me, Abrams said
one lm, due for release in 2015 and script-
ed by Little Miss Sunshine screenwriter
Michael Arndt.
What the approach is going to be
remains to be discussed, because its in
process, he said. So its a weird thing to
be talking about. If Im charging down the
court dribbling the ball, its hard to com-
ment on the layup thats about to take place.
I feel like the ball is just getting passed
to me now, to complete the annoying
metaphor.
But its a suitably energetic metaphor for
the prolic creator of TV shows, including
Felicity, Alias and Lost, director of
lms Mission: Impossible III and Super
8 and owner of Bad Robot, the lm and tel-
evision production company whose upcom-
ing projects include a movie about disgraced
cyclist Lance Armstrong.
Compact and voluble, in natty black-
framed spectacles and a dark jacket, 46-year-
old Abrams is the epitome of the geek made
good.
By his own admission, though, he has
never been much of a Star Trek fan.
Roberto Orci, a producer and writer on both
Abrams Star Trek movies, says with
mock-horror that the director didnt
even know that Spock was half-human.
Abrams distance may actually have been
an asset. The Star Trek reboot works
because it speaks to fans and newcomers
alike. Its the work of a director who was not
overawed by Star Treks mythology or
bogged down in its lore.
I think a lot of sequels make this weird
mistake, which is that they assume you
care, Abrams said. They assume you know
about the world or the characters.
The approach to Star Trek, especially
for Into Darkness, was to make a stand-
alone movie.
You never have to have seen our rst lm
or the original series. Its its own thing. If
you have, youll be rewarded, but you dont
have to.
Abrams characters are drawn directly
from the original series, led by impulsive,
cocksure Capt. James T. Kirk (Chris Pine)
and uber-logical Vulcan rst ofcer Spock
(Zachary Quinto). But the lmmakers gave
themselves freedom to play with character
and plot, thanks to some alternate-universe
sleight of hand.
Star Trek Into Darkness picks up where
the rst lm left off, with the crew of the
Starship Enterprise in the midst of a high-
octane outer space adventure. Then a per-
sonal crisis shakes Kirks condence, and a
terrorist attack shatters Stareet. Soon the
crew are off in pursuit of a villain played
with muscular menace by Sherlock star
Benedict Cumberbatch who may be an
ally, or the enemy within.
Treats for fans of the original series are
scattered about like Easter eggs theres
the return of an iconic character, even a trib-
ble.
Star Trek Into Darkness retains the
thread of social commentary that ran
through the 1960s original, asking how far
is it morally acceptable to go in waging a
war on terror. But the lm, shot in almost
overwhelming IMAX 3-D, also announces
its action credentials in a visually spectacu-
lar opening scene set on an alien planet of
crimson-red forests and roiling volcanic
eruption.
If the stakes were high rst in reviving
Star Trek, then in trying to outdo the rst
lms box ofce tally of almost $400 mil-
lion worldwide Abrams said he didnt
notice.
I was aware of the pressure but never real-
ly felt it, because I was not a Star Trek
fan, he said. Working on it didnt carry
the same sort of personal challenge of want-
ing it to meet a feeling that I had had since I
was a kid.
For Star Wars which he emphatically
has loved since childhood the stakes are
even higher. Abrams knows he has to nd a
new way to approach material that has
seeped into the global bloodstream. He also
has to erase the tang of disappointment that
clings to the inferior second trilogy,
released between 1999 and 2005.
Abrams says his approach will be similar
in some ways to the one he took on with
Star Trek.
No project can be or should be
approached assuming that the audience has
any investment, he said. If they do, thats
a bonus. But it doesnt preclude the required
steps of reintroduction.
He is fairly certain about one thing
the worlds of Star Wars and Star Trek
will never meet.
One is a long time ago in a galaxy far, far
away. And one is us in a few hundred years,
he said.
They could not feel more different to me.
I feel like in my mind there is no Venn dia-
gram overlap.
He hasnt ruled out directing a third Star
Trek lm, though he acknowledges, it
feels unlikely but its a very bittersweet
thing to admit.
Abrams, whose output suggests a fero-
cious work rate and a lack of sleep, insists
he almost turned down Star Wars because
he had enough on his plate already.
We had family plans, and I thought the
next movie I was going to do was a small,
very specic story that were working on, a
comedy-drama that I really love, he said.
And then this thing came along that was a
fairly unique opportunity and it sort of
interrupted every expectation of what the
next couple of years were going to be.
But colleagues scoff at the idea he could
ever have said no to his dream job.
I knew he loved Star Wars so much that
my rst thought was Oh my God, my friend
is going to get to do what hes always want-
ed to do, Orci said. On the other hand, Im
a Star Trek geek, and I was like, You trai-
tor!
Pine admits to being a little heartbroken
that he wont be back for the third to direct
us, because hes obviously gained all our
trust.
But, the actor said, Im excited for him
and cant wait to see what he brings to (Star
Wars), because as a kid from the Star Wars
generation, its something near and dear to
my heart. And I know what hes capable of
doing.
ABRAMS
Along the way, things of course, get
complicated.
Benedict Cumberbatch makes a terrific
villain, as John Harrison, who is ostensi-
bly a former Starfleet member turned bin
Laden.
Cumberbatch is a BBC It Boy whos been
showing up lately in many big Hollywood
productions, Warhorse, The Hobbit,
Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. He is
renowned for his work on British stage, as
well as the popular television series
Sherlock. He brings a familiar and wel-
come Shakespearean touch to the Trek vil-
lainy proceedings.
The good guys, too, are fantastic.
Abrams casting from the previous movie
was superb, and they all return. There is not
a weak spot in the entire crew, with extra
special kudos for Chris Pines Kirk and
Zachary Quintos Spock.
Also, the stuff surrounding the actors
the audio, the special effects, the 3-D ren-
dering are first-class, but thats just par
for most blockbusters priced at $200 mil-
lion. What sets this movie apart is the
ridiculously high degree of excellence that
Abrams showcases in the story, the dia-
logue and the pacing.
He makes it seem effortless. At turns the
movie is witty, suspenseful, exhilarating,
dramatic, emotional. All those countless
hours on long, multiple season television
series (Lost and Alias) have really paid
off for him. He has honed himself into
becoming become this generations
Spielberg.
Perhaps because he is a remake of
Spielberg, he does such a great job with the
Trek reincarnation. There have been very
few reboots where the filmmaker makes the
movie his own, yet can still give so much
homage to the original.
Abrams shows a special gift for making
Star Trek into something for everyone.
This movie plays well for passionate Trek
geeks, action movie lovers, science fic-
tion fans, eye candy seekers or teeny-bop-
pers who think Quinto or Zoe Saldana are
soooo hot.
This seems to bode well for the prospects
of the Abrams upcoming Star Wars
movies.
TREK
pendent, bipartisan commission formed to
examine what went wrong, who was
involved and why it was allowed to contin-
ue for so long.
Millers resignation was necessary but
insufcient, Speier said.
The conduct is outrageous and cant be
tolerated, she told the Daily Journal.
Just yesterday, Joseph Grant, the com-
missioner of the IRSs tax exempt and gov-
ernment entities division, announced his
resignation effective June 3 just as
President Barack Obama named Ofce of
Management and Budget official Danny
Werfel as the agencys acting commission-
er.
Obama also said yesterday that a special
prosecutor will not be needed but instead
investigations by Congress and the Justice
Department should be able to determine why
the IRS targeted tea party groups for addi-
tional scrutiny when they applied for tax-
exempt status.
Obama also said yesterday that he had no
idea the IRS was targeting the groups for
extra scrutiny.
If an independent commission is formed,
Speier also wants it to examine the dramatic
increase in the number of organizations
applying for tax exempt status as social
welfare organizations and whether more
clarity is needed on the use of tax exempt
status by organizations that engage in
political activities.
It is completely appropriate to examine
whether organizations claiming exemption
as exclusively social welfare charitable
and educational are actually charitable and
educational, Speier wrote in a statement.
Other groups, such as the Billy Graham
Evangelistic Association, and Samaritans
Purse, run by the Rev. Franklin Graham,
have complained to Obama directly that it
was no coincidence those groups were
audited after taking out ads urging people to
support biblical principles on marriage and
in choosing political candidates leading up
to the November 2012 presidential elec-
tion.
Speier said trust must be restored at the
agency.
I think all of us have lost condence,
she said. No one loves the IRS to begin
with.
Federal authorities have opened a criminal
investigation into whether IRS employees
actually broke the law.
SPEIER
Boehner said. And thats what the
American people are seeing today from the
Obama administration remarkable arro-
gance.
The targeting of conservative political
groups by the IRS and new questions about
the deadly attack on the U.S. diplomatic
mission in Benghazi, Libya, last year
along with the Justice Departments seizure
of journalists phone records have con-
sumed the White House for nearly a week. Of
the three controversies, the presidents
advisers see the IRS matter as the most like-
ly to linger. At least three congressional
committees are planning investigations
into the agency that touches the lives of
nearly every American.
Obama, who was criticized by both oppo-
nents and allies for his measured initial
response to the IRS targeting, vowed to
ensure the agency acts scrupulously and
without even a hint of bias.
I think were going to be able to x it,
he declared during a joint news conference
with Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip
Erdogan.
Soon afterward, Obama appointed senior
budget ofcial Danny Werfel to temporarily
run the IRS, one day after Acting
Commissioner Steven Millers forced resig-
nation. The White House is expected to
nominate a permanent commissioner later
this year.
However, the president knocked down the
prospect of appointing a special prosecutor
to investigate the IRS, saying the congres-
sional investigations and a separate Justice
Department probe should be enough to nail
down who was responsible for improperly
targeting tea party groups when they
applied for tax-exempt status.
Obama and Erdogan were questioned dur-
ing a light but steady rain during Thursdays
outdoor event. As the rain picked up, the
president summoned a pair of Marine guards
to provide umbrellas for Erdogan and him-
self, joking, Ive got a change of suits, but
I dont know about our prime minister.
The news conference marked Obamas rst
comments on the governments widely crit-
icized seizure of telephone records of
reporters and editors of The Associated
Press in an investigation of news leaks. The
president spoke of the importance of strik-
ing a balance between secrecy and the right
to know but said he would make no apolo-
gies for trying to protect classied informa-
tion that could put Americans at risk.
Ive still got 60,000-plus troops in
Afghanistan, and Ive still got a whole
bunch of intelligence ofcers around the
world who are in risky situations, he said.
Part of my job is to make sure that were
protecting what they do, while still accom-
modating for the need for information.
The president said he continues to have
condence in Attorney General Eric Holder,
who has been the target of intense criticism
from lawmakers after the phone record sub-
poenas were made public.
The IRS and Justice Department contro-
versies have coincided with a revival in the
GOP-led investigations into the September
attacks in Benghazi, which claimed the
lives of the U.S. ambassador to Libya and
three other Americans.
Obama, who angrily cast the investiga-
tions as a sideshow earlier this week, tried
to turn the focus Thursday to Congress. He
urged lawmakers to provide more money to
strengthen security at U.S. diplomatic mis-
sions around the world.
We need to come together and truly
honor the sacrice of those four courageous
Americans and better secure our diplomatic
posts around the world, Obama said.
Thats how we learn the lessons of
Benghazi. Thats how we keep faith with the
men and women who we send overseas to
represent America.
The State Department is seeking about
$1.4 billion for increased security; the
money would come primarily from funds
that havent been spent in Iraq. It would
include $553 million for 35 more Marine
Security Guard units, $130 million for 155
diplomatic security agents and $376 mil-
lion for security upgrades and construction
at new embassies.

Freeman to hand down more than eight
years.
Defense attorney Jonathan
McDougall did not return inquiries for
comment.
Ayres remains free on $900,000 bail
and will be sentenced Aug. 6 during a
half-day hearing at which the victims
are invited to speak.
Ayres is accused of molesting dozens
of patients but many fell outside of the
statute of limitations, leaving prose-
cutors originally ling charges stem-
ming from six patients between 1988
and 1996 when they were ages 9 to 13.
Ayres escaped conviction in his origi-
nal 2009 trial when the jury hung 11-1
on nine felonies and stalled a second
trial after McDougall, raised questions
about his competency. A jury trial on
that issue also ended with a mistrial
and prosecutors agreed Ayres could be
committed to Napa State Hospital.
However, the case took a dramatic
twist last year when doctors at the
facility concluded he was faking or
exaggerating his condition and
returned him to San Mateo County.
After Freeman on Tuesday denied
McDougalls latest request to stop the
trial for a mental evaluation of Ayres,
he turned to the appellate court. Late
Thursday morning, the appellate court
declined to hear the matter and three
hours later Ayres entered his new pleas.
The no contest pleas bring a close to
a case that has stretched over a decade,
and has included two defense attor-
neys, three trials, several civil law-
suits, the reprimand of the prosecutor,
the rehiring of a retired homicide pros-
ecutor to aid in the new trial and estab-
lishment of a website by victims and
advocates to track his prosecution and
movements while free on bail.
The case is the ofces longest-run-
ning ever, with only one current mur-
der case even approaching the same.
Victoria Balfour, a victims advocate
who contacted San Mateo police in
2002 on behalf of a friend and worked
doggedly to locate others, said she felt
darn good about the resolution.
[I] thought it would never happen!
she wrote in an email.
Prior to his 2007 arrest, Ayres was
well-known as president of the
American Academy of Child and
Adolescent Psychiatry and for hosting
the sex education series Time of Your
Life. Ayres received juvenile court
referrals up through 2004, two years
after police began looking at him in
2002 in response to a former patients
claim of molestation during the 1970s
when he was 13. After a U.S. Supreme
Court ruling on the statute of limita-
tions nixed criminal prosecution, the
victim and Ayres reached a condential
settlement in July 2005. In a deposi-
tion for the lawsuit, Ayres reportedly
admitted conducting physical exams of
patients as part of his care.
The evidence and witnesses of the
new trial was expected to largely echo
the rst aside from the exclusion of
one charged victim who was later
alleged to have either lied or exagger-
ated his testimony. Prosecutor Melissa
McKowan had also asked in pretrial
motions that this time jurors be
allowed to see evidence items seized
from Ayres medical ofce such as a
book including nude photos which
were kept from the rst trial but was
denied.
Prior to trial beginning, McDougall
unsuccessfully sought McKowans
recusal from the case, claiming in
court documents she knew the former
patient lied during the testimony and
was herself the subject of a State Bar of
California investigation based on
complaints she failed, during the rst
trial, to contact doctors who trained
with Ayres to show he was never taught
to administer physical exams.
McKowan stipulated to an act of pro-
fessional misconduct and a State Bar
Court judge ordered her privately
reproved and to attend a one-day ethics
course.
Wagstaffe said there is no way to
really put a price tag on the cost of
prosecuting Ayres but that it was worth
it.
It was a remarkably expensive run,
but we dont have any others like this
man. Whatever the expenditure, it is
worth it to have justice for the evil this
man perpetrated, Wagstaffe said.
AYRES
makers selling products. Within those
three groups is a growing number of
startups, which will be featured in their
own area this year.
Kids are particularly excited by the
idea of making, said Dougherty, who
added this years event kicked off
Thursday with an Education Day allow-
ing 2,000 Bay Area youth to be
exposed to the different things they
could make.
Robots are always a hit with kids.
Davis-based Barobo, Inc. will intro-
duce its Linkbot a modular robot
platform that also allows children to
learn coding at the Maker Faire. A
Kickstarter campaign to fund the prod-
uct will go live this weekend as well.
Graham Ryland, CEO and co-founder
of Barobo, was on hand during a press
preview Thursday showcasing how
people can learn and play with the
robot right out of the box.
Gamers may enjoy playing with the
Sifteo Cubes a set of wireless cubes
that can be moved as a player moves
through different games. The San
Francisco-based company is high-
lighting its new game release.
Those taking part in the online
world as players or designers may be
interested in the upgrades by San
Mateo-based Roblox. The online cre-
ative community with millions of
users enables its players to create their
own maps to be shared with other play-
ers. While those creating the maps are
given sophisticated tools, the compa-
ny released a lighting enhancement to
make the player-created maps more
realistic.
Hacker-friendly products are also
highlighted this weekend but in very
different ways.
The Handibot is a smart power tool
that can be told what to do using an
app. The open-sourced hardware
encourages others to get creative when
developing new ways to use the tool
from precision cutting to drilling.
Ted Hall, of ShopBot, which created
the Handibot, said showcasing at the
Maker Faire is a way to encourage oth-
ers to create new ways to use the tool.
Even Ford is getting into the act
with the OpenXC a non-production
open source interface designed to
allow people to experiment within
their cars. This could result in some-
thing like creating Bluetooth synch-
ing within an older model car but the
hope is for users to get creative.
The world of 3-D printing is ever
expanding. This years fair showcases
a variety of models as well as materials
to allow for such printing to happen.
Teachers may be interested in smaller,
portable 3-D printers being showcased
this year like the Bukobot by
Deezmaker. At 6 pounds, the smaller
durable printer was created to encour-
age sharing among users in any set-
ting.
Those who attend will get a chance
to try new products, talk to the design-
ers, get ideas for projects that can be
done at home and even buy pieces to
get started. Expect to learn something.
The Maker Faire will be held rain or
shine 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday, May
18 and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday, May
19 at the San Mateo County Event
Center, 1345 Saratoga Drive, San
Mateo. Tickets are $30 for adults, $20

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Richard M. Hill
Case Number: 123318
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: Richard M. Hill. A Peti-
tion for Probate has been filed by Julia E.
Hill. in the Superior Court of California,
County of San Mateo. The Petition for
Probate requests that Julia E. Hill be ap-
pointed as personal representative to ad-
minister the estate of the decedent.
The petition requests that the decedents
will and codicils, if any, be admitted to
probate. The will and any codicils are
available for examination in the file kept
by the court.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ster the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: June 14, 2013 at
9:00 a.m., Dept. 28, Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo, 400
County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063. If you object to the granting of
the petition, you should appear at the
hearing and state your objections or file
written objections with the court before
the hearing. Your appearance may be in
person or by your attorney. If you are a
creditor or a contingent creditor of the
decedent, you must file your claim with
the court and mail a copy to the personal
representative appointed by the court
within four months from the date of first
issuance of letters as provided in Pro-
bate Code section 9100. The time for fil-
ing claims will not expire before four
months from the hearing date noticed
above. You may examine the file kept by
the court. If you are a person interested
in the estate, you may file with the court
a Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.

BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding
on this property lien, you should under-
stand that there are risks involved in bid-
ding at a trustee auction. You will be bid-
ding on a lien, not on the property itself.
Placing the highest bid at a trustee auc-
tion does not automatically entitle you to
free and clear ownership of the property.
You should also be aware that the lien
being auctioned off may be a junior lien.
If you are the highest bidder at the auc-
tion, you are or may be responsible for
paying off all liens senior to the lien being
auctioned off, before you can receive
clear title to the property. You are en-
couraged to investigate the existence,
priority and size of outstanding liens that
may exist on this property by contacting
the county recorder's office or a title in-
surance company, either of which may
charge you a fee for this information. If
you consult either of these resources,
you should be aware that the same lend-
er may hold more than one mortgage or
deed of trust on the property. NOTICE
TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date
shown on this notice of sale may be
postponed one or more times by the
mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a
court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the
California Civil Code. The law requires
that information about trustee sale post-
ponements be made available to you and
to the public, as a courtesy to those not
present at the sale. If you wish to learn
whether your sale date has been post-
poned, and if applicable, the resched-
uled time and date for the sale of this
property, you may call 877-484-9942 or
800- 280-2832 or visit this Internet Web

very short in duration or that occur close
in time to the scheduled sale may not im-
mediately be reflected in the telephone

formation is to attend the scheduled sale.

NATION 31
650-365-1668
By Todd Dvorak
BOISE, Idaho Federal authorities in
Idaho said Thursday they have arrested an
Uzbekistan national accused of conspiring
with a designated terrorist organization in
his home country and helping scheme to use
a weapon of mass destruction.
The U.S. attorneys ofce said Fazliddin
Kurbanov, 30, was arrested at an apartment
complex in south Boise on Thursday morn-
ing after a grand jury issued a three-count
indictment as part of an investigation into
his activities in Idaho and Utah.
The Idaho grand jurys indictment charges
Kurbanov with one count of conspiracy to
provide material support to a foreign terror-
ist organization, and one count of conspira-
cy to provide material support to terrorists.
The indictment also alleges he possessed an
unregistered explosive device.
Aseparate federal grand jury in Utah also
returned an indictment charging Kurbanov
with distributing information about explo-
sives, bombs and weapons of mass destruc-
tion.
Kurbanov was being held in the Ada
County Jail and is scheduled to appear in fed-
eral court in Boise at 9 a.m. Friday.
Wendy Olson, the U.S. attorney in Idaho,
said Kurbanov is the only person charged,
and any potential threat was contained by
his arrest.
He was closely monitored during the
course of the investigation, she said. The
investigation has been underway for some
time.
Olson declined to share any other specics
of Kurbanovs alleged activities, including
whether any potential terrorist threat or tar-
gets were domestic or abroad.
A news release from the U.S. attorneys
ofce said Kurbanov is in the United States
legally, but Olson declined to give details
about his immigration status.
It was unclear when he moved to Idaho or
the extent of his activities in Utah. An Idaho
telephone number registered to Kurbanov
has been disconnected.
The Idaho indictment alleges that between
August 2012 and May 2013, Kurbanov
knowingly conspired with others to provide
support and resources, including computer
software and money, to the Islamic
Movement of Uzbekistan, a designated ter-
rorist organization. The groups purpose is
to overthrow the government of Uzbekistan,
said David B. Barlow, U.S. attorney in Utah.
The alleged co-conspirators were not
named.
In count two, the indictment alleges
Kurbanov provided material support to ter-
rorists, knowing that the help was to be used
in preparation for a plot involving the use of
a weapon of mass destruction.
The indictment also alleges that on Nov.
15, 2012, Kurbanov possessed an explosive
device, consisting of a series of parts intend-
ed to be converted into a bomb. Those parts
included a hollow hand grenade, a hobby
fuse, aluminum powder, potassium nitrate
and sulfur.
Meanwhile, in Utah, federal investigators
said that for a 10-day period in January 2013,
Kurbanov taught and demonstrated how to
make an explosive, destructive device, and
weapon of mass destruction.
The grand jury alleges that Kurbanov pro-
vided written recipes for how to make
improvised explosive devices and went on
instructional shopping trips in Utah show-
ing what items are necessary to buy to
make the devices, Barlow said. Kurbanov
also showed Internet videos on the topic,
Barlow said.
Authorities arrest man in Idaho in terrorism case
He was closely monitored during the course of the
investigation....The investigation has been underway for some time.
