Officer arrested for
allegedly selling marijuana
SAN JOSE A San Jose police
officer is out of jail following his
arrest on suspicion of dealing mari-
juana that he kept at a storage facili-
t y.
Police say officer Son Vu was
booked into Santa Clara County Jail
on Tuesday on suspicion of posses-
sion of marijuana for sale. The 20-
year veteran officer has been put on
paid leave.
San Jose police Sgt. Heather
Randol says police were called to a
storage facility by employees who
reported finding a substantial amount
of marijuana.
Randol says police later deter-
mined that the 42-year-old Vu had
rented the storage space.
Vu was released after posting
$20,000 bail on Wednesday. He is
due in court later this month.
A message at a listing for a Son
Vu in San Jose was not immediately
returned. KPIX-TV reports that Vu did
not come to the door of his home.
Principal gets mariachi
serenade in school prank
SANTA BARBARA Something
seemed a little bit different about
Principal John Becchio as he made
his rounds at Santa Barbara High
School this week.
Was it the trumpeter? The violin-
ist? Or the guitar and guitarron play-
ers? Probably all four.
The mariachi group that greeted
Becchio in his office Tuesday morn-
ing and followed him around for an
hour was a prank played by this
years senior class.
The Santa Barbara Unified School
District posted photos and video of
the prank on its website this week.
Its not the first such musical
prank. Last year, seniors at West
Linn High in Oregon hired a mariachi
band to follow their principal around
for a few hours.
Police use hidden GPS
unit to track stolen toy
ATHENS, Ga Police in Georgia
say they used a GPS device hidden
inside a teddy bear to track down the
toy and apprehend a suspect in the
theft.
Athens-Clarke County police say
Mid-Atlantic Clothing Recycling
had been experiencing thefts of
clothing from its collection bin at
Georgia Square Mall.
The Athens Banner-Herald reports
that a company manager concealed
the GPS device inside the bear, placed
it in a bag of clothing and tossed it
into the collection bin.
Around 5:30 a.m. Tuesday, the
manager called police to report that
the teddy bear was on the move.
Police said the manager worked with
the officer to update the stuffed ani-
mals location, and a 55-year-old
man was stopped and charged with
theft by taking, a misdemeanor.
Kia hamster actor
charged with disability fraud
LOS ANGELES A man who
played a dancing hamster in Kia car
commercials and was a backup dancer
for Madonna has been charged with
California disability fraud.
The California Department of
Insurance says 27-year-old Leroy
Barnes of Los Angeles collected
$51,000 in workers compensation
benefits in 2010 and 2011. Barnes
claimed he was disabled when a piece
of ceiling fell on him.
But the department says he made at
least one Kia commercial, performed
in a rap group, assisted in recording
the song Cat Daddy, and was a
backup dancer for Madonna, Kelly
Rowland and Chris Brown.
Barnes was arrested last month and
is free on bail. He couldnt be reached
for comment Wednesday.
Insurance department spokes-
woman Nancy Kincaid said she didnt
know if he had a lawyer.

Former longtime San Mateo County
Counsel Michael Murphy loved his family,
traveling and drinking good wine, accord-
ing to those who knew the West Point grad-
uate who spent nearly three decades advis-
ing county leaders on legal matters and
mentoring new generations in the ofce.
Murphy died Tuesday, June 5, 2014, of
brain cancer, a disease he battled for two-
and-a-half years before passing away sur-
rounded by family at his San Mateo home.
He never gave up, said Gayle Murphy,
his wife of 30 years this coming August.
Murphy was the countys second counsel
ever, helming the ofce from September
2007 to March 2011, after 25 years serving
in it. Murphy was one of the leading public
land lawyers and would have had a successful
private practice had he not felt the calling to
public service, said County Counsel John
Beiers who served as one of Murphys
deputies.
The county was very lucky to have him,
said Beiers who recalled Murphy as a
lawyers lawyer, super ethical, detail ori-
ented, very scholarly and with an epic work
ethic. But underneath that quiet and serious
exterior, Beiers and Gayle Murphy both said
he had a sense of humor, a love of baseball
and a great athletic streak that included
playing on a lawyers
softball team short-
stop, and he was very
good at it, Gayle Murphy
said coaching his now-
grown two daughters
soccer teams and enjoy-
ing the outdoors through
skiing and biking.
Murphy was born in
Yokohama, Japan, where
his military father was stationed and grew
up on the Monterey peninsula before head-
ing to the United States Military Academy at
West Point. After his 1970 graduation,
Murphy underwent ranger and parachutist
training before being assigned to Germany.
He rose to the rank of captain and earned an
Army commendation medal for meritorious
service.
After the Army, he earned a law degree
from the University of California at
Berkeley and briey joined a private rm
before coming to San Mateo County where
hed nish out his career. By 1998, he was
appointed as one of two chief deputies and,
in July 2006, named to the newly created
position of assistant county counsel. When
former county counsel Tom Casey retired in
August 2007, Murphy lled his shoes.
He was a quiet guy but had a lot of energy
and enthusiasm. He accomplished quite a bit
in his life and were grateful for that, Gayle
Murphy said.
Murphys accomplishments included
defending the countys local coastal pro-
gram and the Coastal Protection Initiative,
defending the measure authorizing the
Devils Slide Tunnel bypass, advising the
San Bruno Mountain Habitat Conservation
Plan, helping stop proposed disposal of
dredged spoils off the countys coast and
defending the countys financial privacy
regulations.
Murphy retired in March 2011 with plans
to travel and relax and maybe even teach.
Gayle Murphy said he was diagnosed with a
tumor that December, which didnt give him
as much time as they had expected to enjoy
his retirement but that they both made the
most of it. Gayle Murphy said they did a lot
of reading and lunch with friends. There
were wine trips including a river trip in
France. The excursion was a highlight and
full of memories, Gayle Murphy said.
Once Murphys medical options were
exhausted and he recovered from a broken
hip, he returned home in April where his
wife said he nished out his days with his
loved ones.
If he had to go, he left the way he want-
ed, she said.
Murphy is survived by his wife, two
daughters and three sisters.
Amemorial service is 2 p.m. Friday, June
20 at St. Pauls Episcopal Church in
Burlingame.

The intoxicated driver accused of killing
a Menlo Park couple walking their dog and
crashing into a car of teenagers before hit-
ting a tree was ordered to stand trial on two
counts of second-degree murder after pros-
ecutors upgraded her original charges.
Marjorie Ann Reitzell, 54, had been
charged with two counts of gross vehicular
manslaughter and two felony counts of
driving while under the influence causing
injury. On Thursday before a preliminary
hearing on the evidence, prosecutors
changed the homicide charges to second-
degree murder.
An awful lot of work was done, recon-
struction and investigation, and after
looking into her background and where
shed been that day it led to the conclusion
that we should go for the higher charge,
District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said.
Reitzell has a long
history of criminal con-
victions, including sev-
eral drug-related, and a
prior misdemeanor con-
viction of driving while
under the influence from
last November. She was
on probation for that
crime when she alleged-
ly caused the death of
Balbir and Kamal Singh,
50 and 45, respectively, just before 7 p.m.
Oct. 24 as they walked their dog on Chilco
Street in Menlo Park. Reitzell, who is on
probation for a 2012 DUI conviction,
r e por t e dl y
struck the
couple from
behind as
they walked
on the paved
s h o u l d e r
before going over a center divider and hit-
ting the second car head-on then coming
to rest against a tree. The couple died at the
scene and their Chihuahua was injured but
survived. The four teenagers in the second
car had minor injuries.
Reitzells blood alcohol content was .23
several hours after the incident.
After the preliminary hearing Thursday,
Judge Barbara Mallach ordered Reitzell to
stand trial on the murder and DUI charges.
She returns to court June 20 to enter a
Superior Court plea and potentially set a
jury trial date.
Reitzell now faces 30 years to life if
convicted.

Teacher sentenced for child
porn and annoying student
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Aformer science teacher at a private San Mateo school for
children with learning disabilities was sentenced Thursday
to a six months in jail for keeping child
pornography at work and exchanging
inappropriate messages with a 14-year-
old student.
Jefferey Michael Hicks, 36, of
Campbell, faced up to three years in
prison if convicted by a jury but pleaded
no contest in January to take the possi-
bility off the table.
Hicks was also given three years pro-
bation and ordered to participate for a
minimum of a year in an approved sex offender treatment
management program. He must register as a sex offender for
life and surrender to the county jail Aug. 9.
After Hicks was placed on leave from Stanbridge Academy
for allegedly exchanging Facebook messages with the teen
about masturbation, the schools head found on his desk a
CD labeled Jeffs folder containing pornographic videos,
according to prosecutors. He was arrested in May 2013 but
has been out of custody on $100,000 bail.
Hicks joined Stanbridge in 2011, according to his
LinkedIn prole. He taught science and sex education at the
school and is also the founding artistic director of the non-
prot Actors Theatre Center in Santa Clara.

Kings County challenges
rails environmental study
SACRAMENTO In the latest challenge to
Californias $68 billion high-speed-rail proj-
ect, Kings County and a group of its residents
led another lawsuit against the bullet train
Thursday, alleging continued violations of
Californias Environmental Quality Act and
several other state laws.
In the lawsuit led in Sacramento County
Superior Court, the county, Citizens for
California High Speed Rail Accountability
and the Kings County Farm Bureau allege that
the California High-Speed Rail Authority
abused its discretion and violated the law in
approving a massive environmental review of
the 114-mile segment from Fresno to
Bakerseld. Opponents say the review
approved in May is unquestionably inade-
quate and fails to address the serious effects of
the project on thousands of acres of farmland,
wildlife habitat, communities, businesses and
industrial facilities, as well as the potential
harm to existing roads, oil and water wells and
water delivery and drainage facilities.
By Juliet Williams
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO Preliminary figures
show that fewer voters likely turned out for
Tuesdays no-drama primary than for any
regular statewide election in California his-
tory.
At least 770,000 ballots have not yet
been counted from Californias primary elec-
tion, according to a partial tally posted
Thursday by the secretary of states ofce
that includes 24 of Californias 58 counties.
The ballots counted so far put turnout
about 18.4 percent, although that will cer-
tainly grow as elections ofcials count hun-
dreds of thousands of outstanding ballots,
including 166,000 in Los Angeles County.
Two voting experts, Paul Mitchell of
Political Data Inc. and Eric McGee of the
Public Policy Institute of California, predict
turnout will be 22 to 24 percent.
Turnout has been sliding over the last two
decades. The previous low for a non-presi-
dential primary was 33.1 percent in June
2010. Turnout hit 28.2 percent in June
2008, an anomaly when the state split the
presidential and primary elections.
Tuesdays contest had few scintillating
races to pull in less-regular voters, McGhee
said Thursday.
Theres no presidential contest, no U.S.
Senate contest, the gubernatorial race is a
snoozer and there are no citizens initiatives
on the primary ballot anymore, he said.
Many of the uncounted votes are from per-
manent absentee voters who receive their
ballots in the mail but do not return them by
mail. More and more of those voters appear
to be getting their ballots early, then sitting
on them and turning them in at a polling
place on Election Day, Mitchell said.
Those voters clog up the works, said
Mitchell, who is vice president of Political
Data Inc., a consulting rm that tracks voter
data.
Others are provisional ballots cast by vot-
ers whose names are not found on the rolls at
the polling place. Clerks must verify their
registration and ensure they have not voted
elsewhere before they can count the ballots.
Experts are also closely watching whether
who turns out to vote changes with the adop-
tion of the top-two primary, in which the
top two vote-getters advance to the general
election regardless of party affiliation.
Tuesdays contest was the rst statewide
election using top-two.
Turnout in Californias primary elections
has always skewed generally older, whiter
and more conservative than the general elec-
torate, and that appears to have been true on
Tuesday. But McGhee said that is more about
who the voters are than their political afl i-
ation.
Republicans are more reliable voters in
general, McGhee said. They tend to be
wealthier, a little better educated, and older.
These are all things that tend to make some-
body a more regular participant in politics.
They are more likely to be homeowners,
more established in their communities.

BRUSSELS President Barack Obama
and British Prime Minister David Cameron
laid down new markers for Russia Thursday,
giving Moscow a month to meet their con-
ditions in Ukraine or face further sanctions.
The new thresholds for action were
spelled out at a joint press conference, fol-
lowing a Group of Seven world leader sum-
mit that was re-arranged to exclude Russian
President Vladimir Putin after his aggres-
sive moves in Ukraine. The U.S. and Europe
also have imposed economic sanctions in
response.
To avoid even harsher sanctions,
Cameron said, Putin must meet three condi-
tions: recognize the Petro Poroshenkos
election as the new leader in Kiev, stop
arms from crossing the border and cease
support for pro-Russian separatist groups
concentrated in eastern Ukraine.
If these things dont happen, then sec-
toral sanctions will follow, Cameron said,
standing before a row of U.S. and British
ags. The next month will be vital in judg-
ing if President Putin has taken these steps.
And that is what I will urge President Putin
to do when I meet him later today.
Obama said the G-7 leaders unanimously
agree with the steps Cameron outlined. But
they were not so explicit
in written statements
issued after two days of
meetings, and an Obama
aide later described the
potential sanctions in
different terms than
Cameron.
If Mr. Putin takes
those steps, then it is
possible for us to begin
to rebuild trust between
Russia and its neighbors
and Europe, Obama said.
We will have a chance to
see what Mr. Putin does
over the next two, three,
four weeks, and if he
remains on the current
course, then weve
already indicated that
kinds of actions that
were prepared to take.
Obama acknowledged that so-called sec-
toral sanctions, which would hit key sectors
of Russias economy, could have a bigger
impact across Europe because of economic
ties to Russia, and said he didnt necessarily
expect all European countries to agree on
them. But, he said, its important to take
individual countries sensitivities in mind and
make sure that everybody is ponying up.
Obama, Cameron lay down conditions for Putin
By Julie Pace
BRUSSELS President Barack Obama
said Thursday he absolutely makes no
apologies for seeking the release of Sgt.
Bowe Bergdahl in a prisoner swap with the
Taliban, vigorously defending an
exchange that has caused a furor in the
United States and has dogged the president
on his European trip this week.
When it comes to getting soldiers back
from war, Obama said, We dont condition
whether or not we make the effort to try to
get them back.
He also said Bergdahls health had
been deteriorating and We were deeply
concerned about it.
We saw an opportunity and we seized it.
And I make no apologies for that, Obama
said during a joint news conference with
British Prime Minister David Cameron.
Bergdahl was released following a deal
between the U.S. and the Taliban that was
brokered by Qatar. Five Taliban detainees
held in Guantanamo were released as part of
the exchange. Republicans and Democrats
have objected to the swap.
Obama said his administration had dis-
cussed the possibility of such an exchange
with members of Congress in the past. But
he did not notify lawmakers in advance that
he planned to release Guantanamo
detainees.

SEATTLE Alone gunman armed with a
shotgun opened re Thursday in a building
at a small Seattle university, fatally wound-
ing one person before a student subdued him
with pepper spray as he tried to reload,
Seattle police said.
A student building monitor at Seattle
Pacic University disarmed the gunman, and
several other students jumped on top of him
and pinned him down until police arrived at
the Otto Miller building, police said.
A 19-year-old man died at the hospital.
Three other people were injured. Acritically
injured 20-year-old woman was taken to sur-
gery, Harborview Medical Center spokes-
woman Susan Gregg said. A24-year-old man
and a 22-year-old man were in satisfactory
condition. Gregg says one of those two men
was not shot.
None of the victims was immediately
identied
Police said they had arrested one man.
None of the victims at the hospital was the
arrested man, Gregg said.
The afternoon shooting came a week
before the end of the school year, and the
situation was particularly tense when police
initially reported that they were searching
for a second suspect. They later said no one
else was involved.
The university locked down its campus for
several hours, and it alerted students and
staff to stay inside. Some students were tak-
ing nals in the same building as the shoot-
er.

Caltrain adopts
balanced operating budget
Caltrains Board of Directors Thursday
adopted its a balanced operating budget
which requires no cuts in service and no fare
increases, according to the transit agency.
The budget depends on one-time-only
funds to achieve balance, as has been the
case for Caltrain budgets the last several
years. Caltrain still must address a structur-
al decit that leaves the agency vulnerable
in years of ridership decline or economic
downturn, according to the transit agency.
Ridership growth is contributing to
record-setting farebox revenue and its
$125.7 million operating budget allows
Caltrain to retain current service levels.
Fares cover $75 million of the projected
operating revenue; income from shuttles,
parking, grants and other sources make up
$18.1 million; member agency contribu-
tions cover another $19.8 million; the
remaining $12.8 million is covered by
using surplus farebox revenue from Fiscal
Years 2013 and 2014, according to the tran-
sit agency.
According to the budget, the city and
county of San Francisco will contribute
$5.2 million, the Santa Clara Valley
Transportation Authority (VTA) will con-
tribute $8.4 million and the San Mateo
County Transit District (SamTrans) will
contribute $6.3 million, according to the
transit agency.
Caltrain has not adopted its proposed
$109.1 million capital budget. The capital
budget covers the costs of improvements
driven by federal and legal mandates,
Caltrain Modernization and keeping the
railroad in a state of good repair, according
to the transit agency.
Man sentenced in Target
parking lot armed robbery
A man convicted of robbing a woman at
gunpoint in the parking lot of a Target store
in San Bruno last year was sentenced on
Wednesday in San Mateo County Superior
Court.
Dominique Jackson, 24, was sentenced to
two years in state prison and was ordered to
pay $11,000 in restitution to the victim,
according to San Mateo County District
Attorney Steve Wagstaffe.
On April 14, Jackson pleaded no contest
to felony robbery and admitted to posses-
sion of a deadly weapon.
Prosecutors said that on May 30, 2013,
Jackson and co-defendant Jason King Jr. ,
25, pointed a gun and demanded the purse of
a woman as she sat in her car in the parking
lot of Target.
The purse contained $12,000 worth of
jewelry. After taking the purse, the defen-
dants ed in an Oldsmobile. The victim was
able to get a partial license plate number,
which helped police trace the car to King.
The same car was used that night in a rob-
bery in Oakland and the next day, San
Francisco police stopped the vehicle after a
citizen told them the people in the car had
just tried to rob him. A search of the car
revealed the victims drivers license and
two BB guns that looked like handguns,
according to police.
In a separate hearing on Sept. 19, 2013,
King was sentenced to two years in state
prison and ordered to pay $11,000 in resti-
tution to the victim.
Vehicle burglary suspect arrested
A San Francisco man was arrested for
vehicle burglary Monday night in Daly
City after San Bruno police responded to a
report of two people breaking into a car in a
parking lot at 899 El Camino Real, accord-
ing to police.
At approximately 5 p.m., officers
responded to the scene where it was reported
the two people left in a gray car. About an
hour later, Daly City police reported stop-
ping a car that matched the description and
two people ed. Daly City ofcers were able
to detain one, identied as Steven Hawkins,
29, according to San Bruno police.
Police arrest auto burglary suspect
Police in Pacica said they arrested a man
on Wednesday suspected of a string of auto
burglaries throughout the city.
The suspect, 31-year-old Jose Herrera of
Antioch, is also suspected of auto theft and
drug possession, according to Pacifica
police.
At about 3:30 a.m. Wednesday, police
responded to a call about an auto burglary in
progress in the 200 block of Winwood
Avenue. Upon arrival, police observed the
suspect taking property from a vehicle, and
placing it in another vehicle that was
parked in the middle of Winwood Avenue.
Police determined that that vehicle had been
reported stolen in San Francisco.
When the suspect saw the ofcers, he ed
on foot, running west on Winwood Avenue.
Ofcers gave chase and took Herrera into
custody without incident, police said.
During an interview with officers,
Herrera admitted to burglarizing other
vehicles in Pacifica.
Herrera was booked into San Mateo
County Jail on suspicion of burglary, pos-
session of stolen property, possession of
methamphetamine, possession of drug
paraphernalia and delaying or obstructing
an ofcer.
Police said investigators might be able to
match victims of burglary or theft with
recovered property. To report a theft or bur-
glary call Detective Glasgo at (650) 738-
7314.
Six retailers cited for
selling alcohol to minors
Six Daly City retail businesses received
criminal citations on Saturday for selling
alcohol to minors, according to police.
Daly City police Sgt. Matthew Fox said
ofcers issued the citations during a com-
pliance check of 21 businesses in collabo-
ration with the North County Prevention
Partnership.
Fox said the goal of the checks is to
ensure local retailers are in compliance with
California State law by properly checking
identication of anybody purchasing alco-
hol, and that no alcohol is sold to anyone
under age 21.
A total of 21 business checks were com-
pleted, and during those checks, there were
six locations where an employee sold alco-
hol to a person under 21, Fox said.
In addition to the employee citations, the
owners of the six businesses where alcohol
was provided to minors will receive admin-
istrative action from the California
Department of Alcohol Beverage Control.
Fox said data shows that regular compli-
ance checks within communities are an
effective way of preventing youth access to
alcohol.
These details are an important part of our
overall partnership in educating businesses
as well as enforcing laws pertaining to
underage drinking, Fox said in a state-
ment.

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

funeral matters or want to make pre-
planning arrangements please feel free to

Who Or What Is Gladstone And

COLLEVILLE-SUR-MER, France
Ceremonies to commemorate the 70th
anniversary of D-Day are drawing thousands
of visitors to the cemeteries, beaches and
stone-walled villages of Normandy this
week, including some of the few remaining
survivors of the largest sea-borne invasion
ever mounted.
World leaders and dignitaries including
President Barack Obama and Queen
Elizabeth II will gather to honor the more
than 150,000 American, British, Canadian
and other Allied D-Day veterans who risked
and gave their lives to defeat Adolf Hitlers
Third Reich.
For many visitors, the Normandy
American Cemetery and Memorial, with its
9,387 white marble tombstones on a bluff
overlooking the site of the battles bloodi-
est ghting at Omaha Beach, is the emo-
tional centerpiece of pilgrimages to honor
the tens of thousands of men killed on D-
Day and the months of ghting afterward.
D-Day veteran Clair Martin, 93, said hes
come back to Omaha Beach three times in
the last 70 years four if you count the
time they were shooting at me.
The San Diego, California resident landed
on D-Day with the 29th Infantry Division
and said he kept ghting until he reached
the Elbe River in Germany the following
April. I praise God I made it and that weve
never had another World War, he said.
Ceremonies large and small are taking
place across Normandy, ahead of an interna-
tional summit on Friday in Ouistreham, a
small port that was the site of a strategic
battle on D-Day. Fireworks lit up the sky
Thursday night to mark the anniversary.
French President Francois Hollandes
decision to invite Russian President
Vladimir Putin to participate in the ofcial
ceremony despite his exclusion from the G-
7 summit in Brussels is being seen by some
as justified recognition of the Soviet
Unions great sacrice in defeating Hitler,
but by others as a distraction given the
Wests dispute with Russia over Ukraine.
Russian paratroopers joined the com-
memorations late Thursday, jumping down
onto the town of Arromanches waving a
Russian ag, in a reminder of their role
ghting the Nazis on the eastern front in
World War II and the millions of lives the
Soviet Union lost. The Russians participa-
tion comes despite tensions between the
U.S. and Russia over Ukraine.
With many D-Day veterans now in their
90s, this years anniversary has the added
poignancy of being the last time that many
of those who took part in the battle will be
able to make the long journey back to
Normandy and tell their stories.
Vets, visitors flock to Normandy to remember D-Day
By Matthew Daly and Terry Tang
WASHINGTON An additional 18 veter-
ans in the Phoenix area whose names were
kept off an official electronic Veterans
Affairs appointment list have died, the
agencys acting secretary said Thursday
the latest revelation in a growing scandal
over long patient waits for care and falsied
records covering up the delays at VAhospi-
tals and clinics nationwide.
Acting VASecretary Sloan Gibson said he
does not know whether the 18 new deaths
were related to long waiting times for
appointments but said they were in addition
to the 17 reported last month by the VAs
inspector general. The announcement of the
deaths came as senior senators reached
agreement Thursday on the framework for a
bipartisan bill making it easier for veterans
to get health care outside VAhospitals and
clinics.
The 18 veterans who died were among
1,700 veterans identied in a report last
week by the VAs inspector general as being
at risk of being lost or forgotten. The
investigation also found broad and deep-
seated problems with delays in patient care
and manipulation of waiting lists through-
out the sprawling VA health care system,
which provides medical care to about 9 mil-
lion veterans and family members.
Richard Grifn, the VAs acting inspector
general, told a Senate committee three
weeks ago that his investigators had found
17 deaths among veterans awaiting
appointments in Phoenix. Grifn said in
his report last week the dead veterans med-
ical records and death certicates as well as
autopsy reports would have to be examined
before he could say whether any of them
were caused by delays in getting appoint-
ments.

OPINION 9
FlightCar
Editor,
The article printed on the front page
Flightcar moves to South City (May
10-11 edition of the Daily Journal)
just goes to prove that Millbrae does
not encourage a business they dont
want. South City has opened their
arms and minds to FlightCar.
The city ofcials are willing to
work with FlightCar rather than run
them out of town. Millbrae contended
that FlightCar had three vehicles
stolen. Did they ever check the
records of car rental agencies and see
just how many vehicles they have
stolen? Millbrae said FlightCar had an
unapproved portable electric gener-
ator, re hazards and lack of landscape
maintenance. You mean to tell me that
Millbrae could not work with
FlightCar and have them install legal
electrical for the lights? What re haz-
ards could there possibly be on a
paved lot that could not be corrected?
Landscape maintenance? This is the
poorest excuse I have ever heard.
Lets look around the city for how
many properties are in landscape vio-
lation, especially in the alleys behind
the restaurants and businesses along
El Camino Real and Broadway.
Millbrae even revoked the conditional
permit issued to FlightCar.
The article stated South City was
working with FlightCar to help com-
plete their permit. Millbrae could not
extend themselves to go the extra
mile to keep this growing business?
Why? Was it because FlightCar is not
a restaurant? Millbrae is willing to
work with Tai Wu restaurant because
the violations were allowed by
Millbrae ofcials and now they want
to cover their butts. Why would a city
not want to help out a business that
has now expanded to four cities and
created employment and tax money?
How many more businesses is
Millbrae going to lose to satisfy city
ofcials that should all be removed
from ofce?

Snowden
Editor,
Traitor or patriot, green or blue,
good guy or scoundrel thats where
NBCs recent interview with Edward
Snowden left the discussion. Just
looking at the facts, we see a fairly
normal fellow with above average
brights throwing away an idyllic
lifestyle in Hawaii, making good
money, living the good life to go on
the run just one step ahead of the
Federalis with their bloodhounds
baying at his heels.
Before the interview, a majority
thought of him as a rascal and turn-
coat, but now we have a majority
agreeing with him as having been
someone who tried his best to blow
the whistle on illegal practices and
what he saw as clear violations of our
constitutional rights. It looks like
corporate media does come through
with real news coverage once there is
enough of a clamor.
Id say he earned a Nobel Prize on a
much greater weight of evidence than
a certain equally bright but more
compromised head of state who is
presently in possession of one.

Hill votes against GMO labeling
Editor,
Last week, state Sen. Jerry Hill
voted with the Republican Senate cau-
cus to prevent passage of the
Genetically Modied Organism food
labeling bill, SB 1381, in the state
Senate. The bill received the majority
of votes but fell two votes short of the
21 needed for passage. Hill, who is a
former Republican, was the only
senator from the Bay Area to vote
against GMO labeling. Any potential
negative political effect on Hill (and
the Republicans) was minimized by a
local media blackout of the story.
Since the majority of San Mateo
County voted to label GMOs in 2012,
some explanation by Hill is due to his
constituents.
In addition, the pesticide industry
was applying heavy lobbying pressure
to defeat the bill. Was Hill contacted
by pro-GMO industry and did they
inuence his vote?
Apparently, Hill thinks GMOs are
absolutely safe even though no scien-
tic consensus on the safety of GMOs
exist, no tests longer than 90 days has
been done on them, and the FDArelies
on voluntary testing done by the man-
ufacturers. Join the California Nurses
Association and the 65 nations that
have GMO labeling to urge Jerry Hill
to reconsider his position.

Letters to the editor
The Orange County Register
G
oogle, in a remarkable feat
of engineering, has unveiled
a prototype for a driverless
car. While we should celebrate and
encourage such technological innova-
tion, we must also be mindful of the
potential abuses and unintended con-
sequences of the technology.
In a post on Googles ofcial blog,
the company hailed its self-driving
car project and revealed a plan to build
about 100 copies of the prototype and
test them over the summer. Avideo
showed passengers, including an
apparently blind man, riding in a
small car with no steering wheel,
accelerator or brake pedals.
If all goes well, the post noted,
wed like to run a small pilot pro-
gram here in California in the next
couple of years.
The Google post states that the pro-
totypes have sensors that remove
blind spots, and they can detect
objects out to a distance of more than
two football elds in all directions.
Considering that human error
accounts for some 80 percent to 90
percent of trafc accidents, the more
driverless cars there are on the roads,
the more accidents may be reduced.
But, as with other new technolo-
gies, there is also great potential for
abuse. How secure will be the data and
wireless transmissions, for example?
Could someone track your every
movement, or even remotely take
control of your car? Would police (or
hackers/robbers with ill intent) be
able to force your car to a standstill?
Could governments prevent you from
going above a certain speed?
There also are social implications.
Google wonders at the possibilities
of driverless cars: (D)runk and dis-
tracted driving? History.
However, there are unintended con-
sequences whenever individuals give
up responsibility. It would be great if
driverless cars could keep someone
who had had a bit too much to drink
from getting behind the wheel, but it
also might encourage excessive
drinking since people would no
longer have to worry about driving
home.
These concerns are no reason to
restrain developing the technology,
however. It is only when people are
free to create, unhindered by govern-
mental mandate and regulation, that
the greatest inventions and improve-
ments to the quality of life of society
at large will occur. There also are the
circumstances that will best allow
others to solve the problems created
by the unintended consequences or
abuses of new technologies.
Whos really in the drivers seat?
Why did people
vote for Yee?
I
n San Mateo County, 5,851 people voted for
Leland Yee for secretary of state. In California,
287,622 people voted for Leland Yee for secre-
tary of state. He received so many votes that he was
the third highest vote-getter in both the county and
the state for this particular office.
I feel bad for the candidates who received fewer votes
than Yee, considering they took the campaign serious-
ly and actually had platforms and ideas. To think that a
state senator who was criminally indicted with some-
one named Shrimp Boy amid allegations of trying to
set up a gun-running deal with suspected terrorists
received more votes than five candidates is a bit
alarming.
So what exactly would
cause someone to vote
for Yee after these alle-
gations, and especially
after he dropped out of
the race after these alle-
gations? Stupidity?
Ignorance? Abit of
both? Deviousness?
They like him anyway?
It actually makes me
angry. Wi t h 70, 000

cent of registered vot-
ers), that means that
nearly 6,000 people
or just under 10 percent
voted for someone
facing pretty serious criminal charges and who
dropped out of the race (Yee remained on the ballot
even though he had dropped out because he dropped
out after the printing deadline for the ballots). Did
they miss the two weeks of straight coverage on every
Bay Area news outlet? Did they do any research at all?
If you voted for Leland Yee, please drop me a note to
tell me why. I just dont get it.

And now we pivot to something a little more fun.
After a few months focused on an election that many
didnt seem to care about, its time for a new summer-
time tradition. The San Mateo County Fair, which
once telegraphed the end of summer, now instead does
the same for the beginning.
The fair used to be in August, but switched a few
years ago to the beginning of June. Now I know
Memorial Day is the official summer kickoff, but it
seems to now begin in earnest with the county fair,
which begins Saturday.
This year will be like the last, although fair promot-
ers always try to keep up with the times with high-
tech features and all that. But there is nothing wrong
with it being like the year before, or the year before
that.
It seems to always have its mainstays. Really big
corn dogs, enormous bricks of French fries, large bar-
becued turkey legs along with award-winning jams,
cookies, bread, animals, art, flowers and pretty much
whatever else you can think of. And dont forget pig
racing. Or the fair bands, though I prefer the local
bands. And the games and rides. And the 4-H animals.
Big cows, pigs, rabbits and chickens live and right
there. And and and and and. You get the idea. Its fun.
And its kind of a social equalizer. Where else can
you mix it up with the people of your county in a fun
and open way? Its time for the fair.

The Redwood City Elementary School District just
finalized a raise for its teachers after saying for
months that there wasnt money for it. The raise
amounts to a total of 3.5 percent for teachers who
havent seen a pay hike since the 2007-08 school
year. Teachers, like the rest of us, deserve regular rais-
es just to keep close to the ever-rising cost of living,
particularly in these parts.
The timing of the deal is interesting, however. It
comes on the heels of Mark Zuckerbergs announce-
ment he would give $120 million to local schools and
pointed out the district would be one of the first recip-
ients.

NEW YORK New steps from the
European Central Bank to revive the
regions agging economy gave mar-
kets a lift Thursday, pushing the
Standard & Poors 500 index to anoth-
er record high.
In the U.S. market, the gains were
broad but modest. All 10 industries in
the S&P 500 crept higher, led by
industrial companies and banks.
The ECB cut two key interest rates,
pushing one of them below zero. The
unusual move means that the ECB will
charge banks to hold their money,
instead of paying them interest. The
goal is to arm-twist banks into lend-
ing money rather than stockpiling it.
Mario Draghi, the ECBs president,
said the bank was willing to take
more steps to support the regions
economy if needed, including buying
bonds.
Its a big step by Draghi, said
Jason Pride, director of investment
strategy at Glenmede Trust. I would
say its a big thing even though the
markets may have expected it.
The Standard & Poors 500 index
rose 12.58 points, or 0.7 percent, to
close at 1,940.46.
The Dow Jones industrial average
rose 98.58 points, or 0.6 percent, to
16, 836. 11. The Nasdaq composite
gained 44.58 points, or 1.1 percent,
to 4,296.23. Both the S&P 500 and
the Dow average are at record-high
levels.
Germanys main stock index, the
DAX, touched a record high before
pulling back and ending the day with a
gain of 0.2 percent. Frances CAC 40
surged 1.1 percent.
The world looks to be a safer place
today, said Chris Rupkey, chief
nancial economist at the Bank of
Tokyo-Mitsubishi in New York, in a
note to clients. If you lend money
out, the ECB has money for you.
The U.S. and Europe are tightly con-
nected through nancial markets, the
banking system and trade. Added
together, the countries in the
European Union make up the worlds
second-largest economy and buy
roughly a fth of all U.S. exports.
Coca-Cola and other large corpora-
tions have blamed Europes weak
economy for hurting sales.
The ECBs move to support the
regions economy came as welcome
news, said Hank Smith, chief invest-
ment ofcer at Haverford Trust. But it
wasnt a big surprise. In recent weeks,
research teams at big banks and strate-
gists on Wall Street have issued scores
of reports predicting just such a move.
It was on everyones radar screen,
Smith said.
Before the market opened, the Labor
Department said the number of
Americans applying for unemploy-
ment benets crept up last week to
312,000. The news heightened specu-
lation that the governments monthly
jobs report, due out Friday, could
reveal a modest slowdown in hiring in
May. It also followed a report from
payroll processer ADP on Wednesday
that showed private employers
pulling back on hiring last month.
Economists estimate that U.S.
employers added 220,000 jobs in May
and that the unemployment rate
inched up to 6.4 percent from 6.3 per-
cent as more people hunt for work.
Among other companies making
moves, PVH, the company behind the
Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger
brands, cut its profit forecast late
Wednesday, blaming the global econ-
omy and a rough winter in the U.S. for
weaker sales. The retailer put more
clothes on sale, which pinched prot
margins. PVHs stock sank $10.59, or
8 percent, to $120.09.
Joy Global, a maker of mining
equipment, reported a big drop in quar-
terly prots and sales as coal miners
scaled back operations. Joy Globals
results were still better than analysts
had expected. The companys stock
gained $3.85, or 7 percent, to $61.70.

Big movers
By Tom Krisher and Dee-Ann Durbin
WARREN, Mich. General Motors said
Thursday that it has forced out 15 employ-
ees for their role in the deadly ignition-
switch scandal and will set up a compensa-
tion fund for crash victims, as an internal
investigation blamed the debacle on engi-
neering ignorance and bureaucratic dither-
ing, not a deliberate cover-up.
GM took more than a decade to recall 2.6
million cars with bad switches that are now
linked to at least 13 deaths by the
automakers count.
Group after group and committee after
committee within GM that reviewed the
issue failed to take action or acted too
slowly, Anton Valukas, the former federal
prosecutor hired by the automaker to
investigate the reason for the delay, said in
a 315-page report. Although everyone
had responsibility to fix the problem,
nobody took responsibility.
GM CEO Mary Barra said more than half
the 15 employees forced out were senior
legal and engineering executives who
failed to disclose the defect and were part of
a pattern of incompetence. Five other
employees have been disciplined, she
said, without identifying any of them.
The automaker said it will establish a
compensation program covering those
killed or seriously injured in the more than
50 accidents blamed on the switches. GM
said not say how much money will be
involved, but a Wall Street analyst esti-
mated the payouts will total $1.5 billion.
Barra called the report brutally tough
and deeply troubling.
The report lays bare a company that
operated in silos, with employees who
didnt share information and didnt take
responsibility for problems or treat them
with any urgency.
Valukas also portrayed a corporate cul-
ture in which there was heavy pressure to
keep costs down, a reluctance to report
problems up the chain of command, a skit-
tishness about putting safety concerns on
paper, and general bureaucratic resistance
to change.
He described what was known as the GM
nod, in which everyone nods in agree-
ment to a proposed plan of action but then
leaves the room and does nothing.
Valukas exonerated Barra and two other
top executives, Mark Reuss, chief of glob-
al product development, and general coun-
sel Michael Millikin, saying there is no
evidence they knew about the problems
any earlier than last December.
Since February, GM has recalled 2.6 mil-
lion older-model Chevrolet Cobalts,
Saturn Ions and other small cars because
their ignitions can slip out of the run
position and shut off the engine. That dis-
ables the power-assisted steering and
brakes, making it difficult to control the
car, and deactivates the air bags.
Trial lawyers suing the company put the
death toll at more than 60.
Its somewhat comforting to realize
that they do know that some things were
done incorrectly and theyre aware of that.
They made the appropriate measures to
make sure it doesnt happen again, said
Ken Rimer, whose 18-year-old stepdaugh-
ter, Natasha Weigel, was killed in a 2006
Cobalt crash in Wisconsin.
Last month, GM paid a record $35 mil-
lion fine for failing to promptly report the
bad ignition switches to federal highway
safety regulators.
GM ousts 15 employees over ignition-switch scandal
By Christopher S. Rugaber
WASHINGTON Rising stock markets
and home prices helped lift U.S. household
wealth to a record in the rst three months
of the year.
The Federal Reserve said Thursday that
household net worth increased $1.5 trillion
in the rst quarter to $81.8 trillion. The
gain was driven by higher home prices,
which boosted Americans home values
$758 billion. A rising, if choppy, stock
market pushed up stock and mutual fund
holdings $361 billion.
Checking account balances, pensions
plan assets and retirement savings, such as
401(k)s, also rose.
The Feds gures arent adjusted for popu-
lation growth or ination. And the wealth is
flowing mainly to affluent Americans:
Roughly 10 percent of households own
about 80 percent of stocks.
Since the rst quarter ended, stock and
home prices have risen further, boosting
household wealth even higher.
Still, the rise in wealth could benet the
broader economy. Consumers who feel rich-
er because of larger stock portfolios or ris-
ing home values typically spend more.
Household wealth, or net worth, reects
the value of homes, stocks, bank accounts
and other assets minus mortgages, credit
cards and other debts.
The Great Recession battered Americansnet
worth. Overall wealth fell to $55.6 trillion in
the rst quarter of 2009, 19 percent below the
pre-recession peak of $68.8 trillion.
Since then, a surging stock market and
rising home prices have rebuilt the lost
wealth and pushed it to new highs. Thats
given many people more condence to bor-
row. Total household debt rose 2 percent in
the rst quarter, mostly because of rising
student and auto loans.
Household wealth hit high in first quarter
Oil barely changed ahead
of monthly U.S. jobs report
The price of oil barely budged for a
fourth straight day, as traders await the lat-
est report from the U.S. government on
the state of the jobs market.
Benchmark U.S. oil for July delivery fell
16 cents to $102.48 a barrel on the New
York Mercantile Exchange. For the week
oil is down 33 cents.
Brent crude, a benchmark for interna-
tional oils, rose 39 cents to $108.79 a
barrel.
The U.S. governments monthly jobs
report is due out Friday. Economists esti-
mate that U.S. employers added 220,000
jobs in May and that the unemployment
rate inched up to 6.4 percent from 6.3 per-
cent as more people hunt for work.
At the gas pump, the price of a gallon
averaged $3.66. That up 1 cent from a
week ago and up 4 cents from this time last
year.
In other energy futures trading on
Nymex:
Wholesale gasoline rose 2 cents to
$2.96 a gallon.
Natural gas rose 6 cents to $4.70 per
1,000 cubic feet.
Heating oil added 3 cents to $2.88 a
gallon.
Business brief
By Peter Svensson
NEW YORK Verizon Communications
Inc., the countrys fourth-largest home
Internet service provider, sent a letter to
Netix Inc. on Thursday, telling it to stop
blaming Verizon for bad video quality or face
a lawsuit.
Verizon is reacting to messages appear-
ing on the screens of some Netflix sub-
scribers, blaming Internet service
providers for poor video quality.
The cease and desist letter is a continua-
tion of verbal and technological sparring
between ISPs and Netix, whose streaming
service accounts for a third of U.S. Internet
usage during peak evening hours.
Internet service providers such as Comcast
Corp. and Verizon want to be compensated
for establishing fast links to Netix, either
directly or through intermediaries. Neti x
says ISPs should swallow the costs.
This is about consumers not getting what
they paid for from their broadband provider,
Netix Inc. said Thursday. We are trying to
provide more transparency ... and Verizon is
trying to shut down that discussion.
The impression that Netix is falsely giv-
ing our customers is that the Verizon network
is generally crowded and troublesome,
Verizon general counsel Randal Milch said in
the letter. Responsibility for its customers
experience falls squarely on Netix itself ....
The cost/quality trade-off is one Netix has
chosen.
Verizon to Netflix: Stop blaming us for bad video

RIO DE JANEIRO World Cup visitors,
welcome to Brazil, land of soccer, sun and sky-
high prices.
Unlike nearby Latin American nations where
a tourists U.S. dollar or European Union euro
seemingly stretches forever, Brazil is astound-
ingly expensive.
If ones budget isnt immediately busted by
the ight or the hotel, it will soon be done in
by the $10 caipirinha cocktail, the $17 cheese-
burger or the $35 pepperoni pizza. And those
are the prices city-dwelling Brazilians saw
even before the World Cup set off a new stan-
dard of sticker shock.
Prices in Rio are absurd, Maria Anda, a
Norwegian artist who has lived in Brazil for a
year, said while enjoying the sunset on
Ipanema beach. I still like it. Its worth being
here, but its not paradise.
The dizzying prices are referred to here as the
Custo Brasil, or Brazil Cost the mixture
of high taxes and steep import tariffs, com-
bined with bad infrastructure, a dose of inef-
ciency and a thick shot of bureaucracy.
Demand leading up to a big event like the
World Cup naturally raises prices. But, since
costs already were high to begin with, tourists
should prepare to dig deep into their wallets and
not be too miffed to receive goods or services
Going to Brazil? Prepare for sticker shock

Madison Bumgarner won his sixth straight game as the Giants beat the Reds 6-1 to win their rst regular-season series in Cincinnati since 2009.
By Joe Kay
CINCINNATI The Giants bid goodbye
to Cincinnati with high-ves. They havent
done that very often.
Left-hander Madison Bumgarner got his
career-high sixth straight win, and San
Francisco beat the Reds 6-1 on Thursday
afternoon, taking a series in Cincinnati for
the rst time in ve years.
San Francisco moved a season-high 18
games over .500 with its 11th win in 14
games. The Giants have the best record in
the majors at 39-21.
After making four errors in the series
opener and falling 8-3, the Giants were
reminded that theyve had a tough time in
Great American Ball Park the last couple of
years. They won the next two games and
moved on with smiles for a change.
Its been a tough park for us, manager
Bruce Bochy said. Gosh, between our
defense and our pitching, we hadnt had a lot
of success here. Of course we did bounce
back at a critical time in 2012 (playoffs),
but I know weve had some of our worst
baseball here.
So it was good, particularly after losing
the rst game the way we did, to bounce
back and play the type of ball we did the
next two days.
Cincinnati has been one of their most
dreaded stops.
The Giants won a series in Cincinnati for
the rst time since August 18-20, 2009.
Theyve dropped 11 of their last 14 in
Cincinnati during the regular season. The
one bright moment was their division series
win in Cincinnati in 2012, the starting
point for their World Series title.
Bumgarner (8-3) gave up three hits in
eight innings, including Todd Fraziers
A winning formula
By Ben Walker
NEW YORK John Jaso stepped to the
plate in the rst inning with a specic plan on
how to approach Masahiro Tanaka. Be
patient, get a good look at what he throws.
And then Jaso swung at the rst pitch and
sent it over the right-eld wall.
That was all Oakland got, though, as Tanaka
tamed the highest-scoring team in the majors
and the New York Yankees
ended the Athletics' ve-
game winning streak, 2-1
Thursday.
I know my rst at-bat I
hit the home run, but I
actually went up there
telling myself to see pitch-
es, Jaso said.
I think he was trying to
get ahead, because Im a
guy that likes to take pitches and kind of work
deep into the count. I think he was just trying
to get strike one on me, he said.
Facing the As for the rst time, Tanaka (9-
1) got a jolt when Jaso homered as the second
batter in the game. But that was the only run
the Japanese rookie allowed in six innings,
and he exited with an AL-leading 2.02 ERA.
Tanaka gave up ve hits, struck out four and
walked one as the Yankees stopped a four-
game skid. He retired 10 straight batters after
Jasos homer and left several As taking tenta-
tive swings.
As Tanaka has demonstrated during his rst
12 starts in the majors at least six innings
with three or fewer earned runs, all of them
he toughens up when theres trouble. He twice
escaped two-out, two-on jams, and threw 104
pitches overall to a team known for grinding
out at-bats.
As cant solve Tanaka, Yankees avoid sweep
Bumgarner deals, defense solid, and Morse and Crawford go deep

California Chrome, the thoroughbred
horse from Los Alamitos who will try to
become horse racings rst Triple Crown
winner since Afrmed in 1978, along with
his owners and trainer Art Sherman, are
thought of as this out-of-nowhere crew that
has burst on the horse-racing scene this
year.
That may be true for California Chrome,
who as a 3-year-old horse is only beginning
his racing career. Its also true for Chromes
owners Perry Martin of Yuba City and
Steve Coburn of Topaz
Lake, Nevada, who call
themselves DAP which
is short for Dumb-Ass
Partners.
Sherman, however, is
hardly new to the Sport
of Kings. The former
San Mateo resident, who
moved to Rancho
Bernardo in 2007, was a
longtime jockey before
becoming a trainer in 1980 and spending
most of his time training horses for Bay
Meadows and Golden Gate Fields. He saddled
his 2,000th winner in 2007 when Oneanwin
won the fourth race at Bay Meadows in
August of that year.
Sherman has tasted the Kentucky Derby
before winning it with California Chrome,
having served as the exercise rider for
Swaps, who won the 1955 Kentucky Derby.
He knew a lot about horses, said Sam
Spear, the director of media relations at
Golden Gate Fields and essentially the voice
horse racing in the Bay Area for nearly 40
years, and who has known Sherman since
the mid 1970s
[Sherman] had a passion for horses. He
had a lot of knowledge being a jockey and
then he learned from other mentors.
Being a jockey did help Art give him
an understanding of horses.
Sherman no
newcomer to
horse racing

SAN ANTONIO The San Antonio Spurs
handled the Heat, and the heat, during a
sweltering start to the NBAFinals.
Tim Duncan had 21 points and 10
rebounds, and the Spurs beat Miami 110-95
on Thursday night in Game 1 inside a
steamy AT&T Center.
With an air conditioning failure making it
feel like basketball in a sauna and causing
LeBron James to battle cramps that knocked
him out of the games decisive stretch, the
Spurs pulled away to win the opener of the
rst nals rematch since 1998.
Manu Ginobili had 16 points and 11
assists, and Tony Parker added 19 points and
eight assists for the Spurs, who shot 59 per-
cent and improved to 6 for 6 in NBA Finals
Game 1s.
James nished with 25 points but played
only 33 minutes, and Miami was outscored
36-17 in the fourth quarter.
Dwyane Wade scored 19 points and Chris
Bosh had 18 for the Heat, who wilted in tem-
peratures that soared to 90 degrees in the
second half.
It was tough on both teams, Spurs coach
Gregg Popovich said. They were pretty
dead. We tried to get guys in and out. ... It
was really hot out there.
James, who had cramping issues two
years ago in the nals, had to ask for a break
in the fourth quarter and was getting treat-
ment during a 15-4 Spurs run that turned
around the game.
He came back in and made a basket that cut
it to two points with about 4 minutes left,
but couldnt even run back on defense,
promptly putting his hand up and lingering
at the baseline until help arrived to take him
off for good.
Danny Green followed with 3-pointer to
trigger what became a 16-3 run to end the
game.
It felt like a punch in the gut when you
see your leader limping to bench like that.
But we still had a chance after that, Heat
coach Erik Spoelstra said.
The crowd chanted Beat the Heat! Beat
the Heat! in the fourth quarter, which was
just what the fans themselves were trying to
do.
The Spurs said an electrical failure for the
power that runs the air conditioning system
had occurred. They apologized for the
inconvenience but also seemed to poke fun
of it, playing songs with hot in the lyrics
over the sound system.
Fans were trying to cool themselves on
the hot night, a reminder of what it was like
in the old Boston Garden when the Celtics
and Lakers got together.
The Heat are the rst team since those
Celtics of 1984-87 to get to four straight
nals. They are well-rested after a relatively
easy roll through the Eastern Conference
playoffs, a key to keeping Wade healthy
entering the nals.
But they couldnt do anything about
James, the MVP of the series last year when
the Heat rallied from ve points down in the
nal half-minute of regulation to win Game
6 in overtime, then won a Game 7 that was
close the whole way for their second
straight championship.
Arematch was widely anticipated and was
close almost throughout. The Heat led 86-
79 after Boshs four-point play with 9:38
remaining in the game, but it was all San
Antonio from there.
The Spurs ended up extending their NBA-
record straight to eight straight home play-
off wins by 15 or more points.
Bosh, scoreless in Game 7 last year,
scored Miamis rst ve points in the Heats
7-2 start. But Ginobili came off the bench
ring, making consecutive 3-pointers for
an 18-13 lead.
Wade and James combined for six straight
points before Ginobili made another 3, and
Patty Mills added one to close the rst-quar-
ter scoring and give the Spurs a 26-20
advantage.
The Spurs committed nine turnovers while
managing only 20 points in the third quar-
ter, and Miami led 78-74 heading to the
fourth.
Not es: James joined Michael Jordan and
Kobe Bryant as the only players with 4,000
points and 1,000 assists in the postseason.
... Ray Allen moved past Bryant and Derek
Fisher into second place on the career list
with 49 3-pointers in the NBA Finals.
Robert Horry, a former Spurs forward, is the
leader with 56.
Miami cant handle Spurs heat

after a rare early exit from the Southeastern
Conference tournament. Now the Commodores
need just two more wins for only Vanderbilts
second trip to the College World Series and rst
since 2011.
And the Commodores swept Stanford, the
team standing in their way, early this season.
Obviously, right when the season starts in
January and February, its hard to look forward
to Omaha, said Vanderbilt pitcher Tyler Beede,
who will start Friday. But thats certainly the
reason why you play the game is to get to that
last day of college baseball and be playing and
to be two wins away, its sort of like, OK, were
here, but we need to nish business.
The Commodores had played for the SEC title
seven of the past 10 years. Well rested, they
needed only three wins to reach their fourth
Super Regional in ve years. Vanderbilt (44-
18) had three games of strong pitching and
freshman Ro Colemans walk off single for a 3-
2 win over Oregon put the Commodores into
their fourth Super Regional in ve years.
Stanford advanced to this best-of-three game
series on a walk off two-run homer by freshman
Tommy Edman against Indiana on Monday.
The Cardinal (34-24) are making their second
trip to Nashville this year, and that three-game
trip in late February and early March ended in a
Vanderbilt sweep with the Commodores
outscoring the Cardinal 13-4 over three games.
Coach Mark Marquess started three freshmen in
that early series and said the Cardinal werent
hitting either then.
Freshman pitcher Cal Quantrill said Stanford
was a completely different team then.
Im sure that theyve made some changes,
too, but I think this will be a great opportunity
to see how big of a difference a couple months
has made, Quantrill said. Weve been really
jelling as a group lately. Were getting runs
from everywhere in the lineup. Our teams
changed a lot, weve gotten a lot better and
were ready to go.

PARIS Might be easier said than done.
Still, Maria Sharapova offered a tidy apho-
rism to sum up the formula thats carried her
to a third consecutive French Open nal.
Its not how you finish a first set,
Sharapova said, its how you nish the last
set.
Right now, no one is a better closer than
she is on clay. Nearing a second champi-
onship at Roland Garros, and fth Grand
Slam trophy overall, Sharapova gritted her
way to yet another comeback victory, beat-
ing 18th-seeded Eugenie Bouchard of Canada
4-6, 7-5, 6-2 in the seminals Thursday.
If some things are not working out, I
dont just want to quit in the middle. Because
when you lose the rst set or a few games or
youre down a break, thats not the end of
the match, Sharapova said. Thats the
type of philosophy that I play with.
She famously described herself years ago
as feeling like a cow on ice on clay, but
Sharapova now has won her past 19 match-
es that went to three sets on the demanding
surface.
In Saturdays final, the No. 7-seeded
Sharapova will face No. 4 Simona Halep, a
22-year-old Romanian
who never before had
been past the quarternals
at a major. Halep turned in
a much more straightfor-
ward victory than
Sharapova, eliminating
No. 28 Andrea Petkovic
of Germany 6-2, 7-6 (4).
I have a lot of con-
dence in myself now,
said Halep, who a year
ago was ranked only 57th and lost in the
rst round in Paris for the third time since
2010. I played really well here; a few good
matches. But next round will be very tough.
I know Maria. Shes a great champion.
She is 0-3 against Sharapova. But Halep
has claimed seven titles since the start of
last season Impressive 12 months, she
called it and used her smooth movement
and smart angles to win all 12 sets shes
played these two weeks.
Sharapova took a more difcult route to
her ninth Grand Slam nal.
In the fourth round against 2011 U.S.
Open champion Samantha Stosur,
Sharapova trailed 6-3, 4-3, then won the
last nine games.
In the quarternals against 20-year-old
Garbine Muguruza, the woman who stunned
Serena Williams last week, Sharapova
trailed 6-1, 5-4, then won nine of the last 10
games.
That pattern continued against another
20-year-old, Bouchard. After dropping the
rst set, then standing two games from
defeat at 5-all in the second, Sharapova won
eight of the last 10 games.
She did it by playing aggressively in
crunch time, risking more but also coming
through more. After Bouchards ability to
take the ball early helped her build a 13-8
edge in winners in the rst set, Sharapova
had a 25-16 edge in that category over the
last two, celebrating most by shaking her
left st and crying, Come on!
She kind of elevated her game a little
bit, said Bouchard, who had been 9-0 in
Grand Slam matches when winning the
opening set.
This was only Bouchards fth major tour-
nament, her second in a row reaching the
seminals.
Less than two years ago, Bouchard was at
the junior level, winning the Wimbledon
girls title.
She is literally just scratching the sur-
face, said Nick Saviano, Bouchards coach.
She can play a much, much higher level as
she goes along. Shes going to get faster.
Shes going to get stronger.
The 27-year-old Sharapova already owns a
career Grand Slam, with titles at Wimbledon
in 2004, the U.S. Open in 2006, the
Australian Open in 2008, and the French
Open two years ago. And for someone who
used to have a hard time on clay, she is 53-4
with six titles on it since the start of 2012;
three of those losses came against
Williams, including in the 2013 French
Open nal.
Sharapova does a good job of trying to
stay in the moment, Saviano said. Shes
got a lot of experience and a lot of ght. And
shes been around a long time.
Sharapova put aside various problems she
had Thursday, including nine double-faults,
two that wasted set points at 5-3 in the sec-
ond. She showed terric defense and court
coverage when it counted most, forcing
Bouchard to hit extra shots.
Most important, at 2-1 in both the second
and third sets, Bouchard raced to 40-love
leads on her serve, only to have Sharapova
steel herself and wind up breaking.
I didnt feel that I was playing my best,
Sharapova said. I fought, I scrambled, and I
found a way to win.

SANTA MONICA Alain Vigneault
reviewed only portions of the video from the
New York Rangers Stanley Cup nals opener
before he sat down at their oceanside hotel to
explain how it got away.
The coach had already formed a few impres-
sions, and they made him even more wary of
the Los Angeles Kings.
Theyre one of the best teams Ive seen in a
long time, Vigneault said Thursday. Areas to
exploit, they dont jump out at you. Were
going to have to be better than we were.
The Rangers realize they missed a golden
chance to grab an early game from the weary
Kings, who were 72 hours removed from a gru-
eling, seven-game Western Conference nals
victory over defending champion Chicago.
New York jumped to a 2-0 lead in the rst peri-
od at Staples Center, but was soon over-
whelmed. The Kings tied it in the second, utter-
ly dominated the third and won early in over-
time on Justin Williams latest clutch goal.
The comeback was classic Kings and now
the Rangers realize exactly what theyre facing.
Were a team thats just never going to go
away, Kings forward Jeff Carter said. Were
going to play hard no matter what the score
is.
Game 2 is Saturday. The Kings enjoyed a rare
day off at home, while the Rangers tried to
relax near the beach on a splendid sunny day.
Despite Vigneaults lofty praise, the
Rangers dont seem intimidated by the 2012
Stanley Cup champions. Although New York
was outshot 20-3 in the third period, Carl
Hagelin was denied by Jonathan Quick on a
breakaway in the last minute of regulation,
barely missing a chance to steal it.
To be honest, I dont think they had that
many grade-A scoring chances in the third,
Hagelin said. They had a lot of puck-posses-
sion time. They had some shots. It wasnt real-
ly a lot of good chances. I mean, we cant look
too much into shots.
The Kings realize theyve also got work to
do after stumbling early in their rst series
opener at home in the entire postseason. New
Yorks speed on the wings surprised the Kings,
leading to numerous prime scoring chances for
the Rangers.

homer, and retired the last 16 batters he faced.
Hes 6-0 in his last seven starts, the best such
streak of his career.
Michael Morse hit a two-run homer, and
Brandon Crawford broke out of a slump with a
three-run shot off Mike Leake (3-5), who had
overwhelmed the Giants the last four times he
faced them.
Bumgarner was the NLs Pitcher of the
Month in May and carried it into June with
another stingy performance on the road.
Bumgarner has allowed three or fewer runs in
each of his last 20 road starts, a franchise
record.
The Reds came out swinging and got two of
their three hits in the rst inning. Once
Bumgarner saw what was happening, he
changed his approach early in the count and
got them hitting the ball on the ground.
They came out aggressive, said
Bumgarner, who retired 23 of the last 24 he
faced. After that rst inning, when they came
out swinging, I made some adjustments and
the defense was phenomenal. They made a lot
of good plays.
Today was the best you can hope for, real-
l y. I got a lot of quick outs and got the team
back in the dugout.
George Kontos retired the side in the ninth
as the nal 19 Reds went in order. Cincinnati
didnt have a base runner after Frazier singled
with two outs in the third inning.
They won the series by nally getting to
Leake, who was 4-0 in his last four starts
against the Giants while allowing only three
earned runs. Leake lasted only ve innings
and gave up eight hits, a walk and ve runs.
Morse homered for the second straight
game, connecting for his team-high 13th
homer in the second inning. That ended
Leakes streak of six straights without giving
up a homer.
Crawfords seventh homer in the fourth
inning was his rst since May 21. The short-
stop was in a 4 for 32 slump.
Pablo Sandoval singled three times and
scored a pair of runs, improving to 11 for 17
career against Leake with two homers. Hunter
Pence extended his hitting
streak to six games.
Frazier hit his team-high
12th homer in the rst
inning, his second homer
in two games. Hes got a
six-game hitting streak
that includes three homers.
NOTES: The Giants
open a 10-game homes-
tand against the Mets,
Nationals and Rockies on
Friday. Matt Cain (1-3) will be activated off
the DL to face Jonathon Niese (3-3). ... The
Reds continue their 10-game homestand
against the Phillies, with Johnny Cueto (5-4)
going against LHP Cole Hamels (1-3). ...
Reds manager Bryan Price won a challenge in
the third. Umpire Larry Vanover decided that
Brayan Pena pulled his foot off rst base while
reaching for a throw, leaving Buster Posey
safe. The call was overturned on review. ... The
Reds are undecided on whether RHPMat Latos,
who left a rehab start on Wednesday night after
67 pitches because of a calf cramp, will need
to make one more start in the minors before
hes activated.

Brandon
Crawford
Jaso had his chance in the fth and
popped up to end the inning.
After homering off Tanaka early, I
kind of knew he was going to come with
soft stuff, and he did, Jaso said. His
split-nger started working for him there
and he got me to pop up with runners on
base.
Before the game, As manager Bob
Melvin said there was some intrigue to
seeing Tanaka up close, kidding he
wouldve preferred Oakland miss the aces
turn.
We made him work some, maybe a lit-
tle bit more than hes had to, where his
pitch count got up and they had to get
him out, Melvin said. But you can see
why his numbers are the way they are.
Hes got a lot of pitches.
David Robertson worked the ninth for
his 13th save in 15 chances, helped by a
lucky bounce.
Stephen Vogt singled with one out and
pinch-runner Craig Gentry stole second.
Alberto Callaspo followed with a hard
grounder that deected off Robertsons
leg, and rst baseman Mark Teixeira cor-
ralled the carom and ipped to the pitch-
er covering the bag for an out. Pinch-hit-
ter Derek Norris looked at strike three for
the nal out.
I was probably the happiest guy in
the stadium that the ball hit me,
Robertson said.
Shortly after he was inserted for
speed and defense, Yankees right
elder Ichiro Suzuki blunted
Oaklands bid to tie it in the eighth
with a sliding catch on Brandon
Moss liner into the gap with run-
ners on rst and second. After a wild
pitch, Adam Warren struck out
Yoenis Cespedes to end the inning.
The Yankees broke a six-game
losing streak to Oakland. The As
own the top record in the AL, and
best road mark in the majors.
Brett Gardner hit a leadoff homer
in the third against Drew Pomeranz
(5-3) for a 2-1 lead.
Pomeranz pitched a season-high
seven innings and gave up six hits
and one earned run.
Jacoby Ellsbury almost had a
two-run homer for the Yankees in
the rst. He hit a drive to the top of
the right-eld wall, hustled around
the bases and slid into second.
The umpires, however, ruled it a
home run and Ellsbury got up and trotted
to the plate and into the dugout. Melvin
challenged the call and it was overturned
to a double.
Alfonso Soriano broke an 0-for-16
slump with an RBI single in the second,
set up when Brian McCann singled and
continued to second as the ball skipped
past Moss in left eld for an error.
NOTES: The As have homered in 13
straight games, connecting 23 times in
that span. ... Tanaka had gone ve starts
without allowing a homer. ... Cespedes
was Oaklands DH. Melvin gave the slug-
ging OF a lighter day after hitting 2 HRs
Wednesday night. Melvin also said
Cespedes was working through some
shoulder issue. ... RF Vogt made a nice
catch in his rst major league start in the
outeld. Hes normally a catcher. ...

Astros draft California high school lefty Aiken at No. 1
SECAUCUS, N.J. The Houston Astros have selected
California high school pitcher Brady Aiken with the No. 1
pick in the Major League Baseball draft.
The reballing left-hander from San Diegos Cathedral
Catholic High School is just the third prep pitcher to be
selected rst overall, joining fellow lefties Brien Taylor
(1991, Yankees) and David Clyde (1973, Rangers).
Aiken is also the rst high school lefty to be drafted in
the rst ve picks since Adam Loewen went fourth overall to
Baltimore in 2002.
The Astros are the rst team to select rst in three consec-
utive drafts, having picked shortstop Carlos Correa in 2012
and right-hander Mark Appel last year.

Sharks trade D Boyle to
New York Islanders for draft pick
UNIONDALE, N.Y. The New York
Islanders acquired the negotiating rights to
potential free agent defenseman Dan Boyle
from the San Jose Sharks for a conditional
pick in next years draft.
The 37-year-old Boyle can become an
unrestricted free agent on July 1. The Sharks
will receive a fth-round pick from New
York, but that will bump up to a fourth-
round selection if Boyle signs with the
Islanders before next season.
Boyle earned just under $7 million with
the Sharks this season. He led the clubs
defensemen with 36 points and 12 goals in
75 games and added four assists in San
Joses rst-round, seven-game playoff loss
to Los Angeles.
In 954 regular-season NHL games over 15
years with Florida, Tampa Bay and San Jose,
Boyle has 144 goals and 417 assists.
Sports brief
By Janie McCauley
SANTACLARA After a second
straight tumultuous offseason, Chris
Culliver could use another fresh
start.
Only 14 months after his Super
Bowl asco in which he made anti-
gay remarks quoted from coast to
coast, the cornerback was arrested
March 28 on suspicion of felony hit
and run and reckless driving after
police said he drove a car into a bicy-
clist near downtown San Jose and
ed the scene.
Back on the football eld for
organized team activities, Culliver
is pushing himself just enough to
ensure he is at full strength for the
start of training camp July 23. His
2013 season ended before it began
with a torn anterior cruciate ligament
in his left knee sustained during
training camp last August. He was in
line to be a starter.
Culliver wont specically address
his legal case, yet its clear he is
determined to turn things around and
set an example.
Its pretty fresh (starting over
now). Ive been here all my four
years, he said this week. Its a new
beginning but were just helping
people come along and helping
myself. Its going to be positive.
He also hopes to rediscover the
strides he made during 2012 while
emerging as a reliable defender in
coordinator Vic Fangios system.
Ideally, that would be at the start of
training camp next month.
I expect that, yes. God willing
and the creek dont rise, coach Jim
Harbaugh said. Yeah, hes been
working. Yeah, practicing.
He has been participating in the
offseason program, sometimes in a
more limited
capacity than
those not com-
ing back from
injury. Culliver
had more to deal
with this offsea-
son than he
might have
expected.
Im a guy
who likes to get out there and com-
pete and play, he said. You dont
want stumbles, you want to keep
progressing. Thats what Im doing
right now. I feel good, soon to be
feeling great.
He pleaded not guilty to misde-
meanor hit-and-run charges and
felony possession of brass knuckles
after the March arrest.
General manager Trent Baalke said
last month he holds his players to
high standards, and still believes in
them despite a recent run of off-eld
issues, which has included line-
backer Aldon Smiths legal trouble
that could lead to an NFL suspen-
sion.
Im adamant in my thoughts that
this is a good group of men. Have
they made some mistakes?
Absolutely they have. Im not going
to sit up and defend them, Baalke
said. There is concern. We hold our-
selves to a high standard. The com-
munity deserves that. We represent
the community.
Authorities said a witness fol-
lowed the 25-year-old Culliver, who
also drove into the car of the wit-
ness, and that vehicle blocked the
players car until police arrived and
arrested Culliver.
After searching Cullivers car, the
authorities found illegal brass
knuckles and booked him into Santa
Clara County Jail for felony hit and
run, felony reckless driving with
injury, felony possession of brass
knuckles, misdemeanor hit and run
and misdemeanor driving on a sus-
pended license.
In 2013, Culliver caused contro-
versy by expressing anti-gay senti-
ments in the lead-up to the Super
Bowl.
During Super Bowl media day at
the Superdome in New Orleans that
year, Culliver responded to ques-
tions from comedian Artie Lange by
saying he wouldnt welcome a gay
player in the locker room. He also
said the 49ers didnt have any homo-
sexual players and, if they did, those
players should leave. He later apolo-
gized, facing a large group of Super
Bowl media members for nearly an
hour.
Culliver underwent sensitivity
training as well and began doing out-
reach work with The Trevor Project,
an organization that provides crisis
and suicide intervention to lesbian,
gay, bisexual and transgender youth.
Culliver, a third-round draft pick in
2011 out of South Carolina, made 47
tackles with two interceptions and a
forced fumble during the 2012 sea-
son while starting six games for the
Niners. They lost in the Super Bowl
that season to Baltimore.
He would like to forget all of that,
though there will be constant scruti-
ny going forward.
Really were just focused on what
weve got going on in here, the new
additions we have, helping them
come along, all the corners weve
got coming in, Culliver said.
Theyre rookies and they dont
know, so we just try to do our best
and be the veterans in helping them
and pushing them and molding them
into what we need for this group to
become.

of inferior quality, said Rafael Alcadipani, a busi-
ness administration professor at the Getulio
Vargas Foundation, Brazils top think tank.
Anything you buy in Brazil will be more
expensive than in the United States or Europe,
but the quality is going to be worse, Alcadipani
said.
Hotel rates in many of the World Cup host
cities more than doubled ahead of the tournament.
Massachusetts-based TripAdvisor reports visi-
tors to Rio will face the highest prices, with
hotel rates averaging $445 per night. Add in
food, a ticket and other expenses, and solo trav-
elers to Rio should prepare to spend $682 each
day.
Next costliest are Fortaleza and Manaus, where
average daily expenses are estimated at $602 and
$554, respectively. Even the more affordable
host cities will set travelers back a good amount:
$457 per day in Cuiaba and $477 in Sao Paulo.
The Cup prices are ridiculous. Everything
shot up. The only thing you can buy in Brazil is
a bikini, a cachaca (Brazilian sugar cane liquor)
and a pair of Havaianas (sandals), said Gillian
Santos, a Brazilian who now lives in Belgium
and was back in Rio on a recent visit. How do
people afford things around here? As a Brazilian
living abroad, I think its outrageous.
Brazil tries to protect its local industries by
charging high tariffs on virtually all imported
goods. For travelers who lose or forget an item,
they might decide to do without rather than pay
local prices.
Everything is expensive, said Nadir Fraguas,
a retired bank employee who was at a Rio mall
pondering whether to spend the equivalent of
more than $100 on a Brazil national team jersey
for her grandson. Clothing, cars and food...
Here, you pay a lot and you get very little. Prices
were already high, but now theyre impossible.

Wally Souza, who helps run the San
Mateo Palomino summer baseball program,
used to work at Bay Meadows with his
father-in-law, Mario Spampinato, who was
relatively close with Sherman.
He was a good friend of my father-in-law.
I used to see him all the time. He stayed at
my in-laws house a couple times a year,
Souza said. He was a really popular guy
with the jockeys. I heard he was a really
good trainer.
Souza said he has a photo of his then 4-
year-old son Lenny, who manages the
Aragon baseball team and Palomino White
Sox squad, wearing Shermans silks in a
Christmas card the Souza family sent out
one year.
We didnt have any (jockey) silks, so
one of my friends, my father-in-laws right
hand man, ran into (Bay Meadows) and ran
into Art Sherman, Souza said. [Lenny]
was sitting on an escort pony in Art
Shermans silks.
Souza said Sherman lived with his wife,
Faye, in a home in the San Mateo Village
area of San Mateo and was well-liked.
He was a really popular guy, Souza said.
Spear has a radio show on Sunday morn-
ings on KNBR 680 and said hes had
Sherman on every Sunday since March as it
was becoming clear California Chrome was
going to be a favorite for the Kentucky
Derby.
Weve been chronicling this story since
March and we just keep adding a new chapter
every week, Spear said. Art is 77. Hes the
oldest trainer to win the Kentucky Derby.
(All this Triple Crown excitement) is kind
of the icing on the cake. At this point, hes
enjoying himself. He hasnt changed a bit.
Hes just very humble and feels very
blessed. Hes handling it very well.
Jim Fetter, the manager for the Jockey
Club on the grounds of the San Mateo
County Event Center, said the buzz has de-
nitely been building as California Chrome
makes a run at history Saturday. Fetter said
the combination of a former trainer from
Bay Meadows, along with a horse with
Northern California ties, has definitely
ramped up excitement around the satellite
wagering facility.
Adding to the Northern California vibe is
Chromes jockey, Victor Espinoza, who got
his start riding horses at Bay Meadows and
Golden Gate Fields.
[Espinoza] started at Bay Meadows in
1993, Spear said. He was here for a few
years before heading [to Southern
California].
SHERMAN
By Beth Harris
NEWYORK Three races in a ve-week
span at varying distances on different
tracks. Its so tough only 11 horses have
won the Triple Crown, and none in 36 years.
Its the longest span without a winner.
Now its California Chromes turn to try on
Saturday at the Belmont Stakes.
The striking chestnut colt with a blaze and
four white feet appears to have rebounded
well after two hard races in the Kentucky
Derby and Preakness, with the most
exhausting still to come. Hell run 1 1/2
miles around Belmonts sweeping oval with
10 rivals gunning to keep history from hap-
pening.
Before Afrmed swept the 1978 Kentucky
Derby, Preakness and Belmont, 25 years had
passed between Citation in 1948 and
Secretariat in 1973.
Few can agree on what makes winning the
Triple Crown so tough. Often its a combi-
nation of factors that help or hurt a horse,
including racing luck and jockey error.
In 2002, War Emblem nearly fell to his
knees when the starting gate sprang open,
and jockey Victor Espinoza knew right then
the colt was doomed. He straggled home in
eighth place, beaten 19 1-2 lengths by a 70-
1 shot.
Espinoza gets another shot on Saturday
aboard California Chrome, who, if he wins,
will have faced down the largest eld of any
Triple Crown winner.
It doesnt matter if there are 14 or six
horses. He needs to break clean, said Bob
Baffert, the only trainer to lose the Belmont
three times with horses that won the rst
two legs, including War
Emblem.
California Chrome had
been slow out of the start-
ing gate in some of earli-
er his races because of his
habit of shifting from
one foot to the other.
Espinoza will try to keep
his head pointed straight
and get him to show
some early speed leaving
the gate.
With a clean break, hes way better than
all the other horses, said Baffert, who will
be watching from Southern California on
Saturday.
Trainer Art Sherman often describes
California Chrome as a push-button
horse, meaning the colt can respond to
whatever Espinoza asks him to do.
Tactically, he can run on or near the lead or
make a move for the front in the latter
stages of a race, like California Chrome did
in the Derby and Preakness.
Hes going to probably be galloping on
the lead, Sherman said. He doesnt want
any horse passing him.
California Chrome is clearly the domi-
nant horse in the 3-year-old ranks, having
won six straight races and impressively
taken charge in the Derby and Preakness. He
has given every indication in his gallops
and one ofcial workout at Belmont Park
during his nearly three weeks in New York
that he likes the deep, sandy track.
Unlike at the Preakness, California
Chrome hasnt coughed and hes been eating
up all his feed both welcome signs that
he hasnt missed a beat in his preparations.
I just like what I see. He looks so darn
good, Sherman said. People have a lot
more respect for this horse than they did
going into the Derby. I really think hes the
real McCoy.
The 1 1/2-mile distance could catch up
with California Chrome, whose modest
pedigree suggests he cant do what hes
already done. Now its a question of whether
he can run an extra quarter of a mile in the
Belmont.
Of course, 10 other horses will have a say
in what happens Saturday.
California Chrome is a horse thats
going for history, and were all trying to
throw something in his way, said Rick
Violette, who will saddle Samraat.
Luck good or bad plays a big part in
winning the triple Crown. Bad luck could
befall California Chrome in the form of
stumbling out of the gate, getting squeezed
or bumped by his rivals or being ganged up
on by other horses.
Sometimes jockey error proves costly,
too. Riders arent used to 1 1/2-mile races in
the U.S., where the focus is on sprinting.
Some have mistakenly moved too soon and
burned out their horses before the 1,097-
yard stretch run. Others have moved too late
and let the leaders get away.
Some horses absolutely do not want to
go a mile and a half and some horses thrive
on it, said Billy Gowan, who will saddle
12-1 shot Ride On Curlin, who was second
in the Preakness.
California Chrome gures to control the
race when he moves his rivals will follow
and when he hangs back, so will the rest of
the eld.
Alittle bit of luck, a good trip and a fast
horse is what its going to take to beat
him, Gowan said.
Plenty of factors in winning Triple Crown

NEW YORK An upper-middle class
blonde from Brooklyn goes to jail for a
drug-related screw-up years before.
The womens federal prison of Orange Is
the New Black is a different world than
Piper Chapman had known, populated with
a wildly varied group of characters played
(alongside series star Taylor Schilling) by
TVs most diverse cast of actors.
As this Netix series shot its second sea-
son last fall on its Queens, New York,
soundstage, a visit to the all-too-gritty-
looking prison set found several of these
actresses delighted to be serving time on
this groundbreaking drama (whose 13 new
episodes are available for streaming Friday
on the Netix website):
TV veteran Kate Mulgrew (Star Trek:
Voyager, Warehouse 13) plays Red
Reznikov, a tough-as-nails inmate who was
once part of New Yorks Russian mob and
now runs the prison kitchen.
The hardest part of the show was nding
my character before they said Action! the
rst day, she says. You have to be able to
show her toughness and, through her tough-
ness, her heart and you had to show it
from the rst shot.
She did. Ever since, its been a blast for
Mulgrew.
This is not a vanity role, she acknowl-
edges. But Im of an age now (59) where
none of that is as important as it once was.
To nd a role this rich, nuanced and specic
is absolutely joyful for me. Its liberating.

WEEKEND JOURNAL
By Sandy Cohen
LOS ANGELES Whats more scary,
fighting aliens with Tom Cruise or singing
in front of Meryl Streep and Johnny Depp?
Both brought butterflies to Emily
Blunts stomach, which is how the 31-
year-old actress knows when to take a role.
I like asking myself, How on Earth am
I going to do this? Blunt said as she
sipped an iced latte at a coffee shop in the
artsy L.A. neighborhood of Los Feliz.
In her latest film, Edge of Tomorrow,
the lithe British beauty wields big guns
of the biceps and military-style variety
as Rita Vrataski, tasked with turning
Cruises character from a scared pencil
pusher to a skilled warrior.
In these male-fueled genres, its usually
the woman whos holding the hand of the
guy and hes running through explosions
leading her, and I wanted to be doing the
leading, Blunt said. This was the
extreme idea of what I ever thought Id
want to do.
Her background is in theater she made
her professional debut on a London stage
in 2002 opposite Judi Dench. Blunts big-
screen breakthrough came four years later
in The Devil Wears Prada as the chilly
magazine assistant who was just one
stomach flu away from her goal weight.
She has since appeared in more than 20
movies.
But none prepared her to be an action
star. What did was three months of rigor-
ous training in martial arts, weapons and
wire work; and working with Cruise, who
famously does his own stunts. (I didnt
want him to be the only one showing off,
she laughs.) Blunt wore a weighted vest to
prepare for the 85-pound armored Exo-
Suit she wears in the film. She nearly
broke her nose demonstrating for a
reporter how the on-set physician
straightened it with a finger in each nostril
and a quick, painful shift and may have
permanently damaged her thumb.
The training helped her become Rita,
and taught Blunt about herself.
I think it did toughen me up in a big
way, she said, because now I know what
Im capable of.
Director Doug Liman said Blunts charac-
ter is the hero of the movie.
Emilys performance is even more
impressive when you step back and see
that she dominates the screen against the
biggest movie star in the world whose
character also happens to have a super-
power, he said.
Blunts next role demanded a different
sort of bravery: singing on screen. Blunt,
Streep and Depp star in Rob Marshalls
dark musical fairy tale, Into the Woods,
due in theaters on Christmas Day. She
worked with a singing coach to prepare for
her role in the Stephen Sondheim adapta-
t i on.
Besides training, Blunt draws on her
deep love of people to inform the charac-
ters she plays. An avid reader, she finds
that discovering characters on the page
inspires her when she creates them on the
screen.
When I choose to play a character, its
because I love that human heartbeat that
they have and Ive found an in with
them, she said.
Disconnecting from Hollywood is part
of the process. Blunt recharges at home
with her husband, actor John Krasinski,
and their 3 1/2 -month-old daughter,
Hazel. The couple likes to entertain, and
Blunt cooks Italian dishes, and a few from
her homeland (English food is underrat-
ed, she said).
That source of off-camera love and sta-
bility allows Blunt to weather
Hollywoods whims and follow the butter-
flies when a challenging role beckons.
Its such an unknown, this business,
she said. You dont know when youre
next working, you dont know whore next
playing, you dont know who youll next
be working with, so I do believe youve
got to walk into each day with great
hope.
Blunt reveals new toughness in Edge

SAN MATEO COUNTY BARRIS-
TERS HELP SECOND HARVEST FOOD
BANK. San Mateo County Bar Association
Barristers sorted 9,081 pounds of food and
packed 900 grocery bags at the San Carlos
warehouse of Second Harvest Food Bank on
May 14. The barristers are a group of new
attorneys, or attorneys who are new to San
Mateo County. Second Harvest Food Bank
provides free food for people in need in
Santa Clara and San Mateo counties.
Sorting food helps the food bank keep track
of food donated, organize the food for quick
distribution, ensure the food being distrib-
uted is healthy and nutritious and helps
more people access the food bank.
Volunteers like the barristers sort food,
organize food for distribution, check food
for safety issues and help with inventory
and storage tasks. Since its inception in
1974, Second Harvest has become one of
the largest food banks in the nation, pro-
viding food to more than one quarter of a
million people each month. Tami Cardenas,
vice president of development and market-
ing for Second Harvest Food Bank of Santa
Clara and San Mateo counties, said: We
sincerely appreciate the support we receive
from the San Mateo County Bar
Association. Despite the improving econo-
my, the number of families struggling to put
food on the table remains stubbornly high.
In addition to performing philanthropic
services for the general San Mateo County
community, the young lawyers of the bar-
risters hold an Annual Judges Luncheon
that introduces new members of the bar to
the bench, offer new practitioners a meet
and greet that includes a tour of the court-
house and a panel discussion with the
judges, and present continuing education
programs that prepare new attorneys for the
practice of law. Membership in the barris-
ters is open to San Mateo County Bar
Association members 36 years old and
younger or those who have been in practice
for 10 years or fewer any new member
meeting these criteria is automatically a
member of the barristers. The barristers
holds a general meeting at noon the rst
Wednesday of each month. The meetings are
brown-bag sessions open to all barristers.
Information about barristers can be found

Its 1896, and a former whaling
ship is sailing from the United
States to Liberia with an all-black
crew in Christina Andersons
pen/man/ship, being given its
world premiere by Magic Theatre.
The only characters the audience
meets are the three black passen-
gers and a crew member. Chief
among the passengers is Charles
(Adrian Roberts), a land surveyor
who has chartered the ship and
hired the crew because he has a
project awaiting him in the
African nation. At rst, hes the
only one who knows the true
nature of the mission.
He is accompanied by his adult
son, Jacob (Eddie Ray Jackson),
who has brought along a woman
friend, Ruby (Tangela Large). The
crew member who befriends
Charles is the accordion-playing
Cecil (Tyee Tilghman).
Part of this psychological drama
focuses on the love-hate relation-
ship that Jacob has for his imperi-
ous, elitist father, who imbibes
regularly in gin.
The other part focuses on the
astute Ruby and her increasingly
contentious relationship with
Charles and closer relationship to
the crew, who are growing to dis-
like him.
The passage of time in this two-
act play is depicted by the journal
kept by the widowed Charles.
Many scenes take place on the
Sabbath, which father and son
have regularly observed with
hymns and the study of Bible vers-
es.
Ruby is invited to join them,
but shes not terribly receptive,
especially since Charles doesnt
trust her.
After the death of a crewman
who supposedly attacked Charles,
he refuses to tell the crew what
happened. Consequently, Ruby
orders the sailors to lower the
sails, leaving the ship adrift on
the ocean, until he agrees to talk
to them.
Director Ryan Guzzo Purcell
keeps the play moving fairly well
despite its talkiness and relative-
ly conned quarters. Still, it drags
in spots. Likewise, the actors do
well, but sometimes the charac-
ters reveal key information so
off-handedly that some in the
audience might not catch its
implications.
The play has undergone a long
genesis of workshops at several
venues, but it still could benet
from some tightening and clarify-
i ng.
It will continue at the Magic
Theatre, Building D, Fort Mason
Center, San Francisco, through
June 15. For tickets and informa-
tion call (415) 441-8822 or visit

first big role after graduating from the
Juilliard School. Hers is not a vanity role,
either.
There are times when Im like, Can we
please do my eyebrows? Can I get a little
more foundation? says Brooks with a
laugh. But I truly enjoy the freedom of
coming to work, not having to wear Spanx
or extensions, to just be me. You cant hide
behind anything here. Its really freeing.
She wants her audience to identify with
Taystee, no matter how unrelatable her char-
acter might seem at rst.
We all cry, we all bleed, we all hurt,
Brooks declares. I want everyone to see
Taystee, who they feel so far away from, and
realize: Ive felt like her before.
Growing up in Washington, D.C.,
Samira Wiley, who plays Taystees friend,
the jokester Poussey Washington, knew
from childhood she wanted to be an actress.
But I couldnt necessarily see where I
might t in, she says. It was clear there
werent a lot of black women snagging great
roles on TV. But theres something in you
so strong you cant suppress it: I want to do
this. This makes me happy.
Now, everything thats happening for me
with this show is more than I could have
dreamed of, she says. Its nice to be part of
that surprise.
Uzo Aduba didnt get the Orange role
she auditioned for. Then she learned she had
been cast as the unstable, sometimes feral
Crazy Eyes Warren.
That was exciting. But at the same time
Im wondering: What was it about my audi-
tion that made them think, Shed make a
great Crazy Eyes?
After all, this is a character, says Aduba,
who has an innocence about her like a child
except children arent SCARY! But when
I tried her on, it felt like the right part for
me. I felt right at home.
Lorraine Toussaint, whose credits
include Saving Grace and Friday Night
Lights, claims to have fallen in love
with the character she plays, Vee Parker, a
charismatic former drug dealer who used kids
as her mules.
Its an interesting love affair, she
allows. I get to dance with my shadow self.
I get to sit in the backseat watching Vee
drive the car, and she drives fast and danger-
ously. I get to be surprised by who she is and
what she does, because Im seeing her from
the inside out.
I think its more uncomfortable for the
people around me, she adds. I nd myself
apologizing to other people on the set when
Im in my prison garb.
Toussaint, who is joining Orange with
Season 2, admits she didnt know the show
when the role came along.
Im only now catching up on Season 1,
she reports. Its VERYgood.

hack character, Lt. Col. Bill Cage, butts
heads with the commander of Earths forces
and is promptly demoted and sent to join the
invasion. He wakes up in cuffs, breathing in
the hot air of a platoon sergeants screams.
He is forced onto the frontline, even though
his combat training has consisted only of
smiling at television cameras and a brief
stint in the R.O.T.C.
His rst foray into combat ends unsurpris-
ingly in an ignoble, violent death (not a
spoiler!). But a millisecond later, he nds
himself in cuffs again, breathing in the hot
screams of the same platoon sergeant. Its an
exact repeat of what has already occurred. He
shortly commences battle again and ends up
dead again, albeit in a slightly different way.
This happens again. It happens many
times. Many, many times. There may be a
perverse joy here for anti-Cruise fans to hate-
watch this movie simply to watch him get
shot, blown up, crushed, dismembered and
eviscerated (and thats just in the rst half).
This may actually help the studio recoup
some of its reported $178 million budget.
Cage keeps failing at his task, but he is
able to retain the critical memories of his
experiences. So he learns from his errors,
and avoids them the next time he re-enters
the repeat scenario. With such predictive
abilities, each of his subsequent attempts
gets him a little farther on his quest to beat
back the aliens.
Along the way, he meets not-sweetly with
Emily Blunts character, Rita Vrataski, a vet-
eran warrior who made a heroic name for her-
self at Verdun. They join together to stop the
alien menace. They bond in the heat of the
battle, although its a rather one-sided rela-
tionship. You see, for Rita, in every sce-
nario, she has just met him for the rst time.
For Cage, he has met her hundreds, if not
thousands of times in the loop and probably
is crushing hard on her.
Cruise does his usual yeomans work as
leading man. He consistently makes very
decent movies well worth the price of admis-
sion. His cachet as an A-lister affords him his
choice of scripts, but more importantly, he
knows how to pick them well. In recent
years, he seems to have found a solid niche in
science ction.
Blunt is a very special actor. But the
scripts attempts to give a little depth to that
beauty and perfect British diction, ultimately
fails. This is not a movie about character
depth. Its about a clever, funny time loop.
For a full Emily Blunt experience, watch
The Adjustment Bureau.
The action and special effects are accept-
able, with lots of computer graphics and
noise depicting the chaos of battle. One of
the main highlights of the production are the
battle armor suits that the foot soldiers wear
in the thick of it call it mech couture.
Doug Liman (Bourne Identity) earns
many laurels for taking a challenging lm
and making it seamless. He must have a seri-
ous attention to detail bordering on the OCD
to make sure the movie works as smoothly as
a time loop movie can work. He executes it
condently, humorously and repeatedly well.
And by repeatedly, I mean literally.

year. The final vote was 4-1, with
Commissioner Sabrina Brennan dissenting.
A main point of contention between the
staff, commissioners and the public is the
need to draw on more than $2 million of its
reserves to cover its estimated $10 million
in expenses for the coming scal year.
We are in very very good nancial shape
and those who say you go into reserves,
yes, thats what reserves are for and not only
do we have reserves, we have prudent
reserves, Commissioner Jim Tucker said.
The district, which oversees Pillar Point
Harbor in Half Moon Bay and Oyster Point
Marina in South San Francisco, has about
$11.5 million in unrestricted, yet designat-
ed, reserves from which the commission can
draw to cover its expenses, said General
Manager Peter Grenell. Those funds include
its emergency reserves, capital improve-
ment and building funds, short-term operat-
ing costs and a reserve for employee pen-
sions, Grenell said.
The district also has about $40 million in
xed assets, which includes the harbor and
its buildings as well as a vacant lot the dis-
trict is considering selling, Grenell said.
But members of the public caution against
the district drawing from its reserves set
aside for employee compensation without a
clear outlook on how it would repay it.
The district generates most of its revenue
from property taxes and berth fees, however,
the commission needs to consider alterna-
tive sources, Grenell said.
The questions of increasing and diversi-
fying the sources of revenue for the district
remain absolutely critical. Theres no fool-
ing around here. The fact is, the district
needs to try and expand its revenue and
diversify its sources so were not nding
ourselves relying only on rates and fees on
the one hand and property tax on the other,
Grenell said.
Most district ofcials remain hopeful that
working with a new consultant to develop a
strategic business plan in the coming
months will assist in making long-term
changes to support its infrastructure and
devise new income generators.
The districts primary responsibilities are
to maintain its infrastructure and provide for
those who it serves, such as shermen and
visitors. However, with turbulent nances
predicted in the coming year, projects such
as improving the sidewalks near Pillar
Point Harbor businesses are being post-
poned.
Commissioner Sabrina Brennan said the
district does need to be reducing expenses,
but the sidewalk project wasnt a big-ticket
item and could have helped generate revenue
for local businesses and the district.
We havent been managing what we have.
Our facilities are in disrepair due to deferred
maintenance over several decades and were
also not improving things to a point where
we can generate new revenue, Brennan said.
One of the biggest wastes, Brennan said,
is the district starting projects by hiring
consultants or making plans and then sim-
ply abandoning them.
Capital improvement projects that pro-
mote safety and support merchants shouldnt
be dismissed, Brennan said.
Some costly repairs are exacerbated due to
drought conditions, Grenell said. The cliffs
wrapping around Mavericks Beach, north of
Pillar Point Harbor, are eroding and the trail
needs to be improved, Grenell said. The dis-
trict had to front money to complete some of
the repairs that in total will cost $355,000.
However, Grenell said he expects it will be
reimbursed through grants.
Other costly repairs such as xing burst
sewer pipes and pump stations are further
examples of costs the district has needed to
support, Brennan said previously.
The district has steadily drawn from its
reserves to cover costs, yet hasnt devised a
way to increase revenue, local resident John
Ullom said. The way the district is doing
business isnt sustainable and deferring nec-
essary maintenance is unwise, Ullom said.
Robert Bernardo, president of the Board of
Commissioners, said the budget is compli-
cated and difcult to communicate to the
public. But there is a reason districts and
cities maintain reserves, Bernardo said.
The challenge with the term reserves is,
if you have too many reserves youre hoard-
ing and if you have less reserves its like the
sky is falling, Bernardo said.
One of the major draws from its funds is
the districts obligation to repay a $19.77
million loan, with interest, which it took
out in 1997 from the states Department of
Boating and Waterways to fund construction
at Pillar Point and Oyster Point.
The district must make an annual $1.3 mil-
lion payment toward the debt and must hold
$1.7 million in a restricted account, Grenell
said. Ofcials have said the district should
be able to dispose of its obligation by
2018, which should ease the strain on the
budget.
Commissioner William Holsinger said
hes condent property values in the county
are on the rise and the district can expect to
receive more tax revenue in the coming
years.
The budget is a dynamic and changing doc-
ument, Holsinger said, that will likely be
modied or amended as the year proceeds.
Im not saying we can be complacent,
Im not saying this budget is ideal,
Holsinger said. But we do have the
resources to weather this budget decit if it
truly is a decit.
In other business, the Harbor District
invited Pillar Point Harbors three sh buyer
lessees to approach the district and discuss
the terms of their leases. In 2012, Pillar
Point Harbor began to charge some of the
highest sh buying fees in the state and has
been at the center of upheaval between the
district and those in the commercial shing
industry.

father, who was already in the country.
Necochea came on a tourist visa and
decided to stay.
It was challenging trying to
speak, said Necochea, who moved to
Santa Clara before settling in Redwood
Shores. Being in this area, surrounded
with people who mostly spoke
English only, it helped me a lot. I was
encouraged as well by my teachers.
Hard work has also led to her getting
different scholarships that pretty much
cover the costs of school for all four
years. She applied to all the scholar-
ships, which include the Incentive
Awards Program from Berkeley for four
years, Pursuit of Excellence
Scholarship and the Kelly Kolozsi
Scholarship.
In high school, she got involved in
activities and was able to maintain a
4.0 GPA, while also taking seven
Advanced Placement classes and work-
ing 15 hours a week in an accounting
rm after school. For the past two sum-
mers, she attended summer programs
she applied for at nearby colleges. In
2012, she attended the COSMOS pro-
gram at University of California at
Santa Cruz for a month and studied
marine biology. In 2013, she attended
the Accounting Career Awareness
Program at the University of
California at Berkeley for one week
and learned about nance, accounting
and marketing. She plans to major in
business nance.
[I was able to get straight As by]
just being focused since ninth-grade
knowing what I wanted to do to con-
tinue working hard and know my
goals, she said. Berkeley was my
dream school. I thought wow this is
going to be tough.
She chose Cal, which is ranked as
the 20th best college nationally by
U.S. News & World Report, because it
has a really well-known program for
business. She said she visits the
school a lot and loves the campus.
Aside from the language, the new
culture in the United States and aca-
demic style were challenges for
Necochea.
I had to learn about policies and
strategies to go to college, she
said. Im the first one in the fami-
ly to go to college.
In addition to attending the summer
programs, Necochea was active in the
volunteer group Key Club
International for all four years of high
school and also was part of the Latinos
Unidos club. She also participated in
AVID Club support class.
Its (AVID) that really helped me
throughout high school, she said.
Its supported me and guided me.
Carlmont has so much to offer. It
was a great experience throughout.
Necochea said she will miss the
teachers she got really close to at
Carlmont and friends who are going
off to different colleges.
She hasnt been back to Peru in 10
years and hopes to go back in summer,
but shes not sure if it will happen
since she plans on taking two courses
at Berkeley this summer to get ahead of
the game.
Im looking forward to meeting
new people and having the experience
of college in general, she said. And
gure out what I want to do in my
future.

Grocott accusing him of always mak-
ing comments that color things,
before other members of the council
and board said they preferred not to
dwell on past actions.
I dont give a rats anything about
it. I want to deal with this issue,
Councilman Ron Collins said, refer-
ring to the city/school land proposal.
Otherwise were just wasting our
time.
The sparring effectively ended the
two bodies attempt to hold a joint
public discussion on the proposal
which was the rst time both had come
together fully to vet the districts
desire to find a new home for its
Charter Learning Center.
The plan had been for the council and
board to take public comment in the
library conference room and have a
short discussion before retiring into
closed session to discuss the possible
terms and negotiations. However, after
the agenda was changed to remove one
possible parcel for consideration and
add another, the members were told
legally they couldnt talk about those
options because they had not been
properly publicized beforehand. Left
with only the original North
Crestview property for consideration
in the closed session, the council and
school board agreed to table the closed
meeting until a tentative Tuesday
meeting.
Afterward, the two agreed to have a
general public sharing of perspectives
which is when Grocott and Rosenblatt
became heated.
Rosenblatt said plan opponents
cries about the loss of open space if a
school goes on the now-vacant
Crestview site is a red herring
because a new facility means space
will go away somewhere.
Earlier in the meeting, about two
dozen residents on both sides of the
debate listened to speakers by turn
praise the plan or argue that it would
add traffic and children to a steep
neighborhood where homeowners had
been assured of park space.
Charter third-graders Andy Clark and
Conner Cook were among the several
students who also addressed the coun-
cil and board.
Thank you for helping us nd a new
campus because ours is really crowd-
ed, Cook said.
At its last meeting, the council voted
3-2, with Grocott and Councilman Bob
Grassili dissenting, to abandon the
North Crestview property as park land
which is a legal requirement to chang-
ing its use. The council will hold a
public protest hearing June 30 and, if
any residents do oppose the idea, can
override them with a four-fths vote.
Once a protest is overridden, the coun-
cil will call a November election.
The council has yet to decide if a
possible ballot measure will include an
explanation of the lands future use if it
passes.

FRIDAY, JUNE 6, 2014
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) If you have been lazy
about performing your household chores, you will hear
about it. Do your part without complaint and avoid
squabbles. A little romance will go a long way.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) Show off your sociable
nature. Surround yourself with friends and family, and
share your positive attitude. An informal get-together
will lift everyones spirits. Share your memories.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Strike a better balance
between home and work issues. Let others do their
share without criticizing their efforts. You cant do it all,
but you also cant expect others to do things your way.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You have been on edge
lately, losing sleep over past mistakes and mishaps.
Avoid depression by making a clear plan for the
future. Your anxiety is holding you back.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Be careful who you
confide in. You may have inadvertently revealed
information that can be used against you. Minor
setbacks must be overcome swiftly. Put your best
interest first.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) A creative activity
will generate an interesting proposal. Be proud of
your talents, and new doors will open for you. Let
everyone know what you have to offer.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) Have faith in
your own judgment. Its important to stay in control.
Take advice from experts, but ultimately make your
decisions based on what works best for you.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Find out more about
whats going on in your community. Look into projects
and developments that you can contribute to. Valuable
connections can be made close to home.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) You need to better
organize your life. If you nd that youre spending too
much time looking for everyday items, set aside a few
hours to put everything in place today. Your frustration
level will decrease as a result.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) Be extra cautious. A
small injury will turn into a problem. Use your tools
carefully. Its how you interact with others that will
determine your success.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) Shake off the blues.
Find people who have the same passions, and plan
a joint project. Have some fun, lighten up and have
a laugh or two.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) It would be wise to
study wealth management and investment techniques.
Spending your time thusly will bring you long-lasting
benets and ensure that you will be less likely to be
conned by a self-proclaimed expert.

administer the estate of the decedent.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ister the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: July 8, 2014 at 9:00
203 Public Notices
a.m., Dept. 28, Superior Court of Califor-
nia, County of San Mateo, 400 County
Center, Redwood City, CA 94063.
If you object to the granting of the peti-
tion, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hear-
ing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent cred-
itor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representa-
tive, as defined in section 58(b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal de-
livery to you of a notice under section
9052 of the California Probate Code.
Other California statutes and legal au-
thority may affect your rights as a cred-
itor. You may want to consult with an at-
torney knowledgeable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.

TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are
considering bidding on this property lien,
you should understand that there are
risks involved in bidding at a trustee auc-
tion. You will be bidding on a lien, not
on the property itself. Placing the high-
est bid at a trustee auction does not au-
tomatically entitle you to free and clear
ownership of the property. You should
also be aware that the lien being auc-
tioned off may be a junior lien. If you
are the highest bidder at the auction, 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 encouraged to in-
vestigate the existence, priority and size
of outstanding liens that may exist on this
property by contacting the county record-
er's office or a title insurance company,
either of which may charge you a fee for
this information. If you consult either of
these resources, you should be aware
203 Public Notices
that the same lender 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, beneficia-
ry, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Sec-
tion 2924g of the California Civil Code.
The law requires that information about
trustee sale postponements 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 postponed, and if applica-
ble, the rescheduled time and date for
the sale of this property, you may call
877-484-9942 or 800-280-2832 or visit

ponements that are very short in duration
or that occur close in time to the sched-
uled sale may not immediately be re-
flected in the telephone information or on
the Internet Web site. The best way to
verify postponement information is to at-
tend the scheduled sale. Date: May 22,

FAIR
By Haruna Umar
MAIDUGURI, Nigeria When men wear-
ing military fatigues and carrying weapons
showed up in pickup trucks, villagers
thought Nigerian soldiers had nally come
to protect them from Boko Haram.
But it was a disguise. The gunmen rounded
up everyone in the village center and then
started shooting.
Altogether, Boko Haram militants slaugh-
tered hundreds of people in three villages in
the far northeast corner of Nigeria, witness-
es said Thursday, describing the latest attack
by the Islamic extremist group that drew
international attention for the kidnapping
of more than 300 schoolgirls.
A community leader who witnessed the
killings on Monday said residents had plead-
ed for the military to send soldiers to protect
the area after they heard that militants were
about to attack.
The militants arrived in Toyota HiLux
pickup trucks commonly used by the mil-
itary and told the civilians they were sol-
diers and that they had come to protect you
all, the same tactic used by the group when
they kidnapped the girls from a school in the
town of Chibok on April 15.
We all thought they were the soldiers
whom we earlier reported to that the insur-
gents might attack us, said the community
leader, who spoke on condition of anonymi-
ty because he feared for his life.
After the militants forced everyone into
the village centers, they began to shout
Allahu akbar, Allahu akbar, then they start-
ed to re at the people continuously for a
very long time until all who had gathered
were dead, he said. Allahu akbar means God
is great.
The killings took place in the villages of
Danjara, Agapalwa, and Antagara, part of
Gwoza district in Borno state. The communi-
ty leader said he ed to Maiduguri, the Borno
state capital, adding that some who escaped
the massacre crossed into the neighboring
country of Cameroon while others remain
trapped in the mountainous region.
They still see the gunmen going about
attacking villages and hamlets by setting
them on re, he said.
He said managed to survive because I was
going around to inform people that the sol-
diers had come and they wanted to address
us. As people were eeing, other gunmen
lurked outside the villages on motorcycles
and mowed them down.
The slaughter was confirmed by
Mohammed Ali Ndume, a senator represent-
ing Borno whose hometown is Gwoza, and
by a top security ofcial in Maiduguri who
insisted on anonymity because he isnt
allowed to speak to the media.
It took a few days for survivors to get word
of the massacres to Maiduguri because travel
on the roads is extremely dangerous and
phone connections are poor or nonexistent.
In another incident, gunmen killed 45
people in Bargari village on Wednesday after
gathering them in front of the village
mosque, a witness said.
We were scared because we knew that they
were Boko Haram members, said Abuwar
Yale, a witness who escaped the attack.
The gunmen who arrived at 9:00 p.m. told
the people they were there to preach Islam
and not kill and then asked them to go to the
village mosque. As soon as the men gathered
there, the militants opened re chanting
Allahu akbar.
Yale and the others who escaped hid in the
bush the whole night and returned to the vil-
lage in the morning. The houses in the vil-
lage were set ablaze and the livestock was
stolen, he said.
Wearing disguise, Boko Haram slaughters hundreds
Thai army government
captures protest leader
BANGKOK Thailands new military
government moved against two of its top
targets on Thursday, capturing a top organ-
izer of protests against its recent takeover
and launching a probe into the finances of
the former elected prime minister.
Protest leader Sombat Boonngam-anong
himself was the first to announce his own
arrest, posting a message Thursday night
on his Facebook account saying simply,
Ive been arrested.
Thai media later reported that Sombat,
also known as Nuling, was captured in a
house in Cholburi province, about two
hours east of Bangkok.
Sombat had defied an order from the new
military government to report to the
authorities, and went into hiding, going
online to organize anti-coup protests in
Bangkok.
The website of the newspaper Khaosod
reported that he was arrested by police offi-
cers of the Technology Crime Suppression
Division working with the army, and that
he had been traced on the internet by the
National Intelligence Agency.
