Plans are moving ahead to
replace the aging Burlingame
Community Center but funding
will be the biggest obstacle for a
new building.
The City Council will vote at its
Monday night meeting on a master
design plan for the center thats
been in the works for two years. A
two-story 35,500-square-foot L-
shaped building located slightly
west of the current location is the
front-runner. The current structure
is 25,000 square feet, but has a
slightly larger footprint than the
proposed structure. Costs, which
are a concern for many city of-
cials, are estimated to range from
$32.8 million and $35.4 million.
Despite the nancials of putting
in a new building, councilmembers
are happy the plan is nally com-
ing to them.
Weve wanted that for a long
time, said Councilman Jerry Deal
The hold up has been how do you
pay for it and priorities. Some
people want to do a downtown
parking garage rst.
In fact, the community center is
on the citys unfunded infrastruc-
ture list. The City Council will be
asked to prioritize that list on Aug.
18 so that staff can being crafting
funding strategies for the highest-
ranked projects. At this time, there
is no funding allocated for the cen-
ter so securing money for con-
struction would also be part of the
process.

Off to the side of Broadway in
Redwood City sits a small dance
studio with an open window and an
open door. Inside, Arthur Murray
Dance Studio holds one of its many
dance parties held every Tuesday
and Friday. Tonights Tony Awards
party is the last of the year and
many show up in extravagant dress-
es and slick suits. Others are simply
in their everyday clothes, but it
never takes away from their re to
dance. With the music booming in
the background, pedestrians outside
are drawn to the variety of dances.
All eyes are xated on the diverse
group as they glide through tango,
salsa, swing and fox-trot.
Since moving from Burlingame
six years ago, Arthur Murray Dance
Studio houses dancers of all back-
grounds and is just one of 250 stu-
dios across the globe. Priding itself
through its strong participation of
dancers, Redwood Citys Arthur
Murray has come a long way. This
year they were rated number one out
of all 250 of its studio branches,
said Director Jenny Lynn, adding
that anyone can really take up danc-
ing at their studio.
Classes are split up into begin-
ners, intermediate and advanced.
These classes are based on a struc-
tured syllabus and the number of
lessons you have determines the
group class you get placed in, said
Lynn. Dancers are instructed in pri-
vate classes rst and then move
onto group lessons with other stu-
dents.
All Arthur Murray Dance Studios
teach the same curriculum allowing
easy transitions between studios for
students. Redwood Citys studio
features 11 certied instructors that
go through six months of training
before teaching patterns, timing
and styling, Lynn said.

ties for couples keen on dancing

Man blows off
hands with fireworks
SAN JOSE ANorthern California
man igniting illegal reworks blew
off both of his hands when a device
exploded prematurely, police said.
Ofcer Albert Morales of the San
Jose Police Department said the man
in his 40s is expected to live. The
explosive went off in the mans hands
as family members stood nearby late
on the Fourth of July holiday.
It would have had to have been
something pretty powerful, Morales
told the San Jose Mercury News.
The newspaper also reported that
two other men were seriously injured
in Sunnyvale while lighting a mortar-
like explosive on Friday.
The Sunnyvale Department of Public
Safety said that at 10 p.m. the men
ages 41 and 32 were hurt at an apart-
ment complex when the illegal re-
work ignited prematurely. Witnesses
in a group of about 20 people said the
men had been trying to ignite the re-
work when it went off in their hands,
ofcials reported.
One man lost ngers on his left hand
and nger tips on the right hand, while
ofcials said the other man lost part of
his right hand.
In Southern California, a man lost
his thumb Friday after the recracker
he was holding exploded in his hand,
Long Beach police said Sunday.
Family maintains
hold on pit-spitting contest
EAU CLAIRE, Mich. When it
comes to pit-spitting in southwest-
ern Michigan, its tough to beat the
Krause family, who on Saturday
maintained their dominance in the
41st International Cherry Pit-
Spitting Championship.
Brian Krause took top honors with
a distance of 80 feet, 8 inches, said
Monica Teichman, who runs the mar-
ket at Tree-Mendus Fruit Farm in Eau
Claire, just north of the Indiana state
line.
Coming in second this year was
Brians father, Rick, with a spitting
distance of 77 feet, 7 1/2 inches.
Kevin Bartz took third with 64 feet, 8
inches.
Last years big winner was Matt
BB Gun Krause with a distance of
41 feet, 6 1/2 inches.
The Krause family has won 26 of
41 of the contests since farm owner
Herb Teichman launched the tourna-
ment in 1974 as a lark - but also to
mark the regions tart cherry harvest.
Brian Krause holds the record spit
of 93 feet, 6 1/2 inches, set in 2003.
More than 100 people tried to qual-
ify Saturday for the championship
round.
Astrong breeze may have account-
ed for the long distances after organ-
izers changed the direction of the
spitting, Monica Teichman said.
We had some really good spits
here, she added. The breeze felt
good, but ... it wasnt good for the
spi t t i ng. We needed to change
because we would have been spitting
into the wind.
This years winner received tee
time at a nearby golf course, a
plaque, a medal, work gloves, a drill
bit set and various gift certificates.
Performer drapes,
lights firecrackers on body
COOPERSVILLE, Mich. John
Fletcher gets a bang out of firecrack-
ers - especially those he wraps
around himself.
The 51-year-old Michigan per-
formers act includes setting off
10,500 firecrackers attached to his
body, The Detroit News reported
Saturday.
I guess Im a little nuts, said
Fletcher, who goes by the name
Ghengis John the Human Firecracker.
I got a little bit of `Hey, look at
me.
He performed last weekend before
300 people and four firefighters at a
motorcycle rally in the western
Michigan town of Coopersville. It
was one in a string of shows that
Fletcher said would be his last.
He has yet to keep those promises.
Hes getting too old, Sharon
Warner, a friend of Fletchers, told
the newspaper. Ive been telling
him that a long time.

I
n the 1850s, it was discovered that the
human eye could be deceived by a
process called persistence of vision.
Aperson can view one picture by itself and
the eye perceives no movement but if a num-
ber of single pictures are strung together and
the lm moved rapidly, the pictures appear to
be in movement because the past picture
image remains for a second in the brain (per-
sists), this is enough time to move the frame,
and movement of images seem connected and
moving.
The projection of the lm on a screen
became dependent upon a strong, bright
light of some sort and his light bulb t the
bill to produce this light. At rst, the cam-
eras were crude and the movies were very
short and unrened but time and many small
discoveries changed this problem.
Edison was also interested in sound being
recorded and transferred to over long dis-
tances. This interest may have come from
Edison losing his hearing at a very young
age. Many attribute this loss to a bout of
scarlet fever during childhood. Here his expe-
rience as a telegraph operator gave him the
insight that produced improved telegraphic
devices that he patented and eventually
resulted in the production of the phonograph
in 1877. His discoveries associated with
sound also became necessary to incorporate
sound onto the lm although this didnt hap-
pen for many years. Eventually these still
shots or pictures were incorporated on a
thin sheet of celluloid that could be projected
on a screen and a short movie was born. The
public went crazy after seeing the first
movies and a whole new industry was born
and produced the Roaring Twenties. The
rst movies were in black and white due to
the difcult road to understanding how color
could be added to the non-talking lm. The
explosion for building of movie houses
began in the late 1920s and lasted until the
new medium of television was unveiled.
The late 20s was a period of great changes
in the movie world. Talkies replaced silent
lms. Many of the big stars to the 20s
couldnt adapt to talkies because of the
accents and lack of a good speaking voice. Al
Jolson appeared in a part talkie -lm, he sang
songs in the Jazz Singer and electried the
public. All lms after this became talkies.
New theaters had to be built to adapt to this
new medium.
Bing Crosby appeared in his rst lm in
1932, The Big Broadcast. This was a begin-
ning of radio stars jumping into the new
media lm.
During the New Deal of the 30s, sweet-
ness and light lms were the rage with lms
such as: Little Women, 1933; David
Coppereld, 1935; Little Lord Fauntleroy,
1936; Love nds Andy Hardy, 1938; fol-
lowed by the grandest lms of all the
musicals. The Gold Diggers of 1933 (my
birth year), 100 pianos in Gold Diggers of
1935 capped by one of the most spectacular
lms Rosalie with Nelson Eddie (1937).
Anew type of lms with new stars arose in
the next few years. Films became more
sophisticated with better plots in most of the
lms. I especially liked going to the Dakota
Theater to see the rage of the time cowboy
movies. Stars like Roy Rogers and Dale
Evans, Gene Autry (and sidekick Smiley
Burnette), the singing cowboys. It was
miraculous how out in the middle of the
prairie, with nobody around for miles, these
actors could burst out in a song, with full
orchestra or a band, about the woes of the
cowboy. The original lm cowboys, Tom
Mix, Buck Jones, William Hart, etc., men
who could actually ride a horse, lost their
glamour and nally faded into obscurity.
Newer lm stars arrived on the scene. Men
like Gary Cooper (High Noon), Alan Ladd
(Shane), John Wayne (stagecoach and many
more) to name a few. I liked them all. The
movies affected our speech and thought.
Phrases like: Make my day, Smile when
you say that, Frankly, my dear, I dont give
a damn, I dont think were in Kansas any-
more, Toto. The lms that really excited me
and others were the slapstick type of lms.
People like Olsen and Johnson (their lms
might be lost or destroyed because I never
have seen any of their lms on cable or other
TV stations), Laurel and Hardy, The Marx
Brothers and the Three Stooges. All of these
groups were hilarious.
Horror movies with Lon Chaney as Dracula
left you with the goosebumps up your back.
For days you looked for Dracula in the shad-
ows. And who can forget Frankenstein? Its
hard to describe the impression these movies
had on us as children.
The Marx Brothers introduction of lms
was in The Coconuts. They improvised beau-
tifully and a script was usually unnecessary
and did no good for the producers. ADay at
the Races followed with ANight at the Opera,

Alert Safeway clerk
helps foil IRS phone scam
An alert grocery store clerk
helped foil a phone scam by stop-
ping a woman before she handed
over thousands of dollars to a fake
IRS agent, police said Saturday.
According to South San
Francisco police, several resi-
dents have fallen victim to the
phone scam in which someone
posing as an IRS agent contacts
victims and tells them they owe
the agency large sums of money.
Scammers threaten the victims
with arrest if they dont make
immediate payments.
On Tuesday afternoon, a South
San Francisco resident was told
that to avoid arrest, she was to
make an immediate payment of
$3,800 using a pre-loaded debit
card.
When the victim went to the
Safeway store located at 30
Chestnut Ave. to purchase the
debit card, police said a store clerk
overheard the victims cell phone
conversation and recognized she
was being victimized by the scam.
The clerk intervened and
stopped the victim from provid-
ing access to her pin number,
thereby foiling the fake agents
attempt to collect funds without
being detected.
Police are asking anyone who
believes they have been the vic-
tims of this type of scam to con-
tact them at (650) 877-8900.
DUI arrests during holiday

Law enforcement ofcers in San

the 17 arrests during the same time

Mountain lion sighted,
animal carcass found
A resident in the San Mateo
Highlands reported seeing a moun-
tain lion Friday night and then
found an animal carcass in the
same area Saturday morning,
according to the San Mateo
County Office of Emergency
Services.
At about 5:30 p.m. Saturday, the
San Mateo County Sheriffs Ofce
received a report of a mountain
lion sighting in the 2000 block of
Queens Lane near De Anza
Boulevard, ofcials said.
The Peninsula Humane
Society was notified of the inci-
dent and responded to the scene.
To avoid a mountain lion
encounter, residents should avoid
hiking or jogging through wooded
areas at dusk, dawn and at night,
when mountain lions are most
active, and should keep a close
watch over children.
Residents who see a mountain
lion, especially if it is feeding or
with offspring, should not
approach it.
Anyone who comes face to face
with a mountain lion is advised
not to run, and instead face the ani-
mal, make a noise and try to look
bigger by waving, throwing rocks
or other objects at the animal.

A consummate volunteer, the
obvious next step for Sema
Tosun was to start her own volun-
teer organization.
Tosun, who works at First Bank
on Fourth Street in San Mateo
and owns Trapeze restaurant in
Burlingame, started Fund A Need
just this February to help low-
income seniors by providing
them with the basic needs to
make them happier, more com-
fortable and more fulfilled for the
remaining years of their lives.
Through the bank and restau-
rant, Ive been exposed to local
nonprofits and schools, she
said. Ive always been very
active and involved. I woke up
one day and said Im going to
do it. My mot t o i s hel pi ng
low-income seniors one hand at
a time.
Low-income seniors are some
of the most underserved right
now despite the amount of wealth
in this region, she noted.
Theres so many people that
need help, she said. Working at
a bank, I see a lot of my cus-
tomers struggle and it made me
realize this was an area that need-
ed giving and funding.
Tosun has supported and volun-
teered at the Samaritan House,
Police Athletics League, HIP
Housing, CORA, Boys & Girls
Club, CASA & Second Harvest
Food Bank.
Having immigrated to the
Bay Area at age 7 from Turkey,
Tosun had struggles of her own
growing up.
It was scary to learn the lan-
guage, but I acclimated really
quickly because I was young,
she said. Growing up in anoth-
er country was scary. Bei ng
from Turkey, kids would always
say, gobble, gobble to me and
it was challenging trying to fit
in as a kid.
Her time as a child in Turkey
did have effects on her that have
affected her views on the elderly
today.
Growing up in Turkey, elders
are very much respected for and
cared for, she said. Here, there
are a lot more in homes and its
something we should bring more
awareness to giving them the
dignity, pride and honor they
deserve.
Her single mother, who helped
raise Tosun and her two brothers,
was also one of her biggest moti-
vations.
She worked so hard, she said.
She truly believes in giving
back.
Tosun plans on doing an event
at Trapeze soon to celebrate the
start of the charity. She notes
sometimes nonprofits are intimi-
dated by other nonprofits, but
she is happy to work with other
ones in the area. To start, she is
working with HIP Housing to
help the Edgewater Isle Senior
Apartments.

Investigators Friday said they
are searching for a possible wit-
ness in a series of unsolved mur-
ders in San Mateo Conty dating
to the spring of 1976 that they
believe were committed by the
same person.
Investigators announced in
March this year that the five
killings, known as the Gypsy
Hill murders, which occurred
over a four-month period in 1976
in San Mateo County, have been
connected through forensic evi-
dence with the murder of a 19-
year-old woman in Reno during
the same time period.
Now, investigators have
received information about a
possible witness and are hoping
to track him down.
The witness is described as a
white male who was in his late
20s to early 30s and living in
San Mateo County at the time of
the murders. He drove an automo-
bile with Nevada license plates.
A joint task force involving
the FBI and local law enforce-
ment agencies has been created
to focus on the six murders.
Authorities are hoping some-
one in the Bay Area or Reno will
remember a suspicious incident
or detail that could shed light on
any of the homicides.
The first Peninsula victim was
18-year-old Veronica Ronnie
Cascio, who was last seen Jan. 7,
1976, walking from her home to
a bus stop at Bradford Way and
Fairway Drive in Pacifica.
Her body was found the next
day at the Sharp Park Golf
Course.
Fourteen-year-old Tanya
Blackwell disappeared next, on
Jan. 24. She had left her home on
Heathcliff Drive in Pacifica,
reportedly to walk to a 7-Eleven
store at King Drive in South San
Francisco.
Her body was located months
later, on June 6, off Gypsy Hill
Road in Pacifica.
Next to disappear was 17-year-
old Paula Baxter, who was last
seen leaving the parking lot of
Capuchino High School in San
Bruno on Feb. 4.
Early the next morning, her
car, a bronze 1972 Chevy Vega
station wagon, was found parked
on a nearby residential street,
and the day after that Baxters
body was discovered hidden in
brush behind the Latter Day
Saints Church on Ludeman Lane.
The next Peninsula victim was
Carol Lee Booth, also known as
Beedy, a 26-year-old who was
last seen walking from the bus
stop on El Camino Real at
Arroyo Street in South San
Francisco toward her home.
Booth disappeared on March
15, but her body wasnt recov-
ered until May 4.
She was known to use a com-
mon shortcut across an open area
between Kaiser Hospital and
Mission Road near the former El
Camino Real Driving Range, and
her body was found hidden in
some vegetation in that area.
The fifth Peninsula victim was
19-year-old Denise Lampe, who
left Serramonte Mall in Daly
City on April 1 and returned to
her vehicle, never to be seen
alive again.
Her body was found that
evening inside her vehicle, a
1964-1/2 Mustang, which was
parked in the same location at
the mall, between Macys and the
Dennys restaurant.
Sandwiched between two of the
San Mateo County murders was
the killing of 19-year-old
University of Nevada-Reno stu-
dent Michelle Mitchell.
At about 8:10 p.m. on Feb. 24,
1976, Mitchells vehicle broke
down at the intersection of Ninth
Street and Evans Avenue in Reno.
Someone assisted her in push-
ing the vehicle, a yellow early
1970s Volkswagen Bug, into a
parking lot across from the uni-
versitys agricultural building on
Evans Street.
Her body was found later that
night in the garage of a nearby
home.
Based on forensic evidence in a
number of the cases, the time
frame of the murders and the
methods used by the killer,
investigators are confident
that all six murders were commit-
ted by the same person.
In addition to the FBI, agencies
involved in the task force include
the San Mateo County Sheriffs
Office, the Daly City Police
Department, the Pacifica Police
Department, the South San
Francisco Police Department, the
Reno Police Department and the
Washoe County Sheriffs Office.
Anyone with information about
the case is urged to call the FBIs
tip line at (415) 553-7400, then
press 0 and advise that the call is
in regards to the Gypsy Hill
cases. All calls are confidential.

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

MANHATTAN BEACH Steven Robles
was an hour into his regular weekend swim
off some of Southern Californias most pop-
ular beaches when he came face-to-face with
a great white shark Saturday morning.
The 7-foot-long juvenile had been trying
to free itself from a shermans hook for
about half an hour when it attacked.
It came up to the surface, it looked at me
and attacked me right on the side of my
chest, Robles told KABC-TV. That all
happened within two seconds, I saw the
eyes of the shark as I was seeing it swim
towards me. It lunged at my chest, and it
locked into my chest.
He tried to pry open the sharks mouth,
but it quickly disappeared.
Robles was familiar with the waters of the
Southern California coast. His Saturday
morning routine included a swim from
Hermosa Beach north to Manhattan Beach
with fellow amateur distance swimmers, and
last summer he completed a difcult swim
approximately 20 miles from Santa
Catalina Island to the Rancho Palos Verdes
peninsula to raise money for a school in
Nicaragua.
Robles had been going for 2 miles with
about a dozen friends Saturday when the
attack happened around 9:30 a.m., fellow
swimmer Nader Nejadhashemi said Sunday.
He said Ive been bit, and he was
screaming, said Nejadhashemi, who didnt
see the shark even though he was just 5 feet
away. Then I saw the blood.
Nejadhashemi reached his friend and
checked that all his extremities were
intact, then comforted him as others in the
group agged a nearby paddle boarder.
I dont know how we managed to push
him on the paddle board but we did, he said.
Once several surfers came over to help pull
the board in, Robles was on his way to the
shore, where paramedics treated his wounds.
He was taken to the hospital but by
Sunday morning had been released. Robles
did not return messages left Sunday at sever-
al numbers listed under his name.
The shark remained in the area for about
20 minutes and then disappeared into the
murky water, said Rick Flores, a Los
Angeles County Fire Department
spokesman. The beaches remained open,
but a mile-long stretch was temporarily off-
limits to swimmers. Police also prohibited
shing from the pier where the sherman
hooked the shark until Tuesday.
Its illegal to sh for great white sharks.
The sherman told several local media that
he was trying to catch a bat ray, not a shark,
and that he didnt cut the line sooner because
of how many swimmers were in the water. It
wasnt immediately clear whether the
wildlife officials were investigating; a
department spokeswoman did not return
calls seeking comment.
Shark sightings are on the rise at some
Southern California beaches, especially in
the waters off Manhattan Beach, which is a
popular spot for surfers and paddle boarders.
Large crowds were at the beach for the warm
holiday weekend.
Shark attacks are rare. Since 1950, there
have been 101 great white shark attacks on
humans off California 13 of them result-
ed in deaths, the state Department of Fish
and Wildlife said.

California shark attack

LOS ANGELES With the potentially
record-breaking $2 billion sale of the Los
Angeles Clippers hanging in the balance,
a trial beginning Monday will focus on
whether Donald Sterlings estranged wife
had the authority under terms of a family
trust to unilaterally negotiate the deal.
Shelly Sterling struck a deal to sell the
Clippers to former Microsoft CEO Steve
Ballmer after Donald Sterlings racist
remarks to a girlfriend were publicized and
the NBAmoved to oust him as team owner.
In order to do so, she had two doctors
examine her 80-year-old husband and they
declared him mentally incapacitated and
unable to act as an administrator of The
Sterling Family Trust, which owns the
Clippers.
The terms of the trust say incapacitation
can be determined by two licensed doctors
without ties to the family who are special-
ists in their field. Atrustee must cooperate
with such exams.
The judge must find that Shelly Sterling
acted in accordance with the trust and that
the deal still applies even though the
trust has since been revoked by Donald
Sterling for the sale to proceed.
Donald Sterlings attorneys say that his
wife blindsided him and he submitted to
examinations under false pretenses. They
allege there was undue influence in the doc-
tors findings, and that the exams and let-
ters regarding his mental capacity were
defective and incomplete.
They say that if hed been properly
informed, he would have participated at a
more convenient time instead of being
pulled out of legal meetings.
He would have also eaten properly and
have been well rested for the examinations
and focused on taking the exam with the
full and complete understanding what it
was for and the serious nature of the
exam, they wrote in filings.
But Shelly Sterlings attorney, Pierce
ODonnell, said that Donald Sterling vol-
untarily went to take scans of his brain and
there was no requirement to remind Donald
Sterling, who is an attorney, or his legal
team of the trusts conditions.
The trial will also focus on the question
of what happens to a deal that hasnt been
closed once a trust is revoked. Donald
Sterling revoked the trust on June 9
weeks after Shelly Sterling negotiated the
deal with Ballmer.

WASHINGTON How much dis-
tance from an immoral act is
enough?
Thats the difficult question
behind the next legal dispute over
religion, birth control and the
health law that is likely to be
resolved by the Supreme Court.
The issue in more than four
dozen lawsuits from faith-affiliat-
ed charities, colleges and hospi-
tals that oppose some or all con-
traception as immoral is how far
the Obama administration must go
to accommodate them.
The justices on June 30 relieved
businesses with religious objec-
tions of their obligation to pay
for womens contraceptives
among a range of preventive serv-
ices the new law calls for in their
health plans.
Religious-oriented nonprofit
groups already could opt out of
covering the contraceptives. But
the organizations say the accom-
modation provided by the adminis-
tration does not go far enough
because, though they are not on the
hook nancially, they remain com-
plicit in the provision of govern-
ment-approved contraceptives to
women covered by their plans.
Anything that forces unwilling
religious believers to be part of the
system is not going to pass the
test, said Mark Rienzi, senior coun-
sel for the Becket Fund for Religious
Liberty, which represents many of
the faith-afliated nonprot s.
Hobby Lobby Inc., winner of its
Supreme Court case last month, also
is a Becket Fund client.
The high court will be asked to
take on the issue in its term that
begins in October. Achallenge from
the University of Notre Dame in
South Bend, Indiana, probably will
be the rst case to reach the court.
The Obama administration
argues that the accommodation
creates a generous moral and nan-
cial buffer between religious
objectors and funding birth con-
trol. The nonprofit groups just
have to raise their hands and say
that paying for any or all of the 20
devices and methods approved by
government regulators would vio-
late their religious beliefs.
To do so, they must ll out a gov-
ernment document known as Form
700 that enables their insurers or
third-party administrators to take
on the responsibility of paying for
the birth control. The employer
does not have to arrange the cover-
age or pay for it. Insurers get reim-
bursed by the government through
credits against fees owed under
other parts of the health law.
Houses of worship and other reli-
gious institutions whose primary
purpose is to spread the faith are
exempt from the requirement to
offer birth control.
The objections by religious non-
profits are rooted in teachings
against facilitating sin.
Roman Catholic bishops and
other religious plaintiffs argue that
lling out the government form
that registers opposition to con-
traceptives, then sending the docu-
ment to the insurer or third-party
administrator, is akin to signing a
permission slip to engage in evil.
In the Hobby Lobby case, the
justices rejected the government
argument that there was no viola-
tion of conscience because the link
between birth control coverage and
the outcome the employer consid-
ers morally wrong was slight.
Just hours after the Hobby Lobby
decision, the 11th U.S. Circuit
Court of Appeals in Atlanta granted
a temporary reprieve to the
Alabama-based Eternal Word
Television Network. Judge William
H. Pryor Jr. said in a separate opin-
ion in that case that the administra-
tion turns a blind eye to the undis-
puted evidence that delivering Form
700 would violate the Networks
religious beliefs.
But the Supreme Court could
draw a distinction between subsi-
dizing birth control and signing
a document to deputize a third-
party to do so, said Robin
Fretwell Wilson, a family law
specialist at the University of
Illinois College of Law.
Think about how thinned down
that objection is, Fretwell
Wilson said. The court might say
that is a bridge too far.
Judge Karen Nelson Moore of the
6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals
in Cincinnati said the document is
a reasonable way for objecting
organizations to inform the insur-
er, but that the obligation to cover
contraception is in the health law,
not the form.
Self-certification allows the
eligible organization to tell the
insurance issuer and third-party
administrator, Were excused
from the new federal obligation
relating to contraception, and in
turn, the government tells those
insurance companies, But youre
not, the judge wrote.
People on both sides of this
argument are looking to the Hobby
Lobby case for clues about how the
justices might come out in this
next round.
Nonprofits contraceptive cases next for justices

BOSTON In the weeks after two bombs
exploded near the nish line of the 2013
Boston Marathon, prosecutors charged
three of the surviving suspects friends with
obstructing the investigation or lying to
authorities.
More than a year later, they charged a
fourth friend with deleting computer les
and lying about certain details of his rela-
tionship with a second
suspect.
As the rst friend heads
to trial this week, some
defense attorneys and
others are criticizing the
extent to which federal
prosecutors have charged
the men, who are not
accused of participating
in the attack or knowing
about it in advance.
Azamat Tazhayakov is
charged with conspiracy
and obstruction of justice
for allegedly agreeing
with another college
friend, Dias Kadyrbayev,
to remove Dzhokhar
Tsarnaevs backpack from
his dorm room after learn-
ing he was a suspect in the
bombing, which killed
three people and injured
more than 260. Opening
statements in his trial are
scheduled for Monday in
U.S. District Court.
Kadyrbayev, who faces
a separate trial in
September, is accused of
throwing out the back-
pack, which contained
reworks that had been
emptied of black powder,
a bomb-making ingredient. Tazhayakov,
according to an indictment, agreed with the
plan to get rid of the backpack but did not
participate in throwing it away. Athird col-
lege friend, Robel Phillipos, is accused of
lying to authorities.
No matter what the facts are, I think the
U.S. attorneys office may be a little
overzealous in how harshly they are treat-
ing these cases, said Christopher
Dearborn, a professor at Suffolk University
Law School.
Defense lawyers have reserved their
harshest criticism for the prosecution of the
fourth man, Khairullozhon Matanov, a 23-
year-old cab driver from Quincy who was
charged in May.
Prosecutors say Matanov was a friend of
Tsarnaevs brother, Tamerlan, who died in a
shootout with police.
Matanov is accused of lying to the FBI,
particularly about the contact he had with
the Tsarnaevs after the bombings, including
dinner at a restaurant the night of the attack
and multiple phone calls that week.
Matanov is accused of deleting les on his
computer after the FBI released the brothers
photos publicly three days after the bomb-
ing. He went to police the next morning and
gave authorities their names, address and
cellphone numbers. By that time, Tamerlan
Tsarnaev was dead, and Dzhokhar was the
object of a massive manhunt. He was later
captured inside a boat in a Boston suburb.
Some defense attorneys have criticized
the decision to charge Matanov.
Most people, in the course of being sub-
jected to an investigation and possible
accusation, will sometimes say things that
are not accurate but are nevertheless not
criminal because they arent material to the
investigation, said Randy Chapman, a for-
mer president of the Massachusetts
Association of Criminal Defense Attorneys.
Dearborn said he sees the charges against
Matanov as an attempt to impress the
public.
Its to send the message that were tough
on crime and very tough on terrorism, but at
what price? he said. How does that resem-
ble fairness?
Others say prosecutors are not only justi-
ed but also have an obligation to charge
anyone they believe impedes a terrorism
investigation.
Sometimes what happens is you end up
with people who may not have had any-
thing to do with the commission of the
crime, but either lied or obstructed in the
context of something that is extremely seri-
ous, said Gerry Leone, a former state and
federal prosecutor who led the prosecution
of shoe bomber Richard Reid.
You charge them to send a message: You
dont lie to investigators when they are try-
ing to solve a terror investigation.
Professor Jeffrey Addicott, director of the
Center for Terrorism Law at St. Marys
University School of Law in San Antonio,
said the charges against the Tsaranev friends
are typical in terrorism cases.
This complaint is nothing new that
the Department of Justice is being
overzealous, he said. On the other hand,
the DOJ has been very trigger happy
because they dont want another 9/11 or
another Boston Marathon attack.
Therefore, they are very aggressive in
casting as big a net as possible.
The U.S. attorneys office declined to
comment.

DONETSK, Ukraine Discouraged but
defiant, pro-Russia separatists vowed to
keep ghting the government in Kiev from
the largest city in eastern Ukraine, where
they regrouped Sunday after being driven
out of a key stronghold.
At a rally in a central Donetsk square, the
rebels were cheered on by thousands of sup-
porters waving ags from Russia and the
self-proclaimed independent Donetsk
Peoples Republic. Many urged Russian
President Vladimir Putin to quickly come to
their aid but there was no comment
Sunday from Russia.
While the rebel withdrawal Saturday from
Slovyansk, a city of 100,000 they had held
for months, was not a total victory,
President Petro Poroshenko said purging
the city of the insurgents had incredible
symbolic importance. It was unclear
whether the government after abandon-
ing a cease-re last week and going back on
the offensive was now winning the ght
that had sputtered for months.
Rebel ghters from Slovyansk could be
seen walking through Donetsk on Sunday in
groups of 10 to 15. Most were still wearing
camouage, but some sported identical new
bright-colored shorts and shirts. It was an
unsuccessful effort to blend in with the
civilian population, since they still carried
automatic weapons.
At one money-exchange ofce in the city
center, about 20 rebels lined up to trade U.S.
dollars for Ukrainian hryvnas. The dollar is
considered a more stable currency in
Ukraine and Russia, but it was not known
who had given them to the rebels. They
refused to speak with Associated Press jour-
nalists and their mood appeared black.
Igor Girkin, defense minister of what the
separatists call the Donetsk Peoples
Republic, told the Russian television chan-
nel Life News on Sunday that he would now
coordinate the ght from Donetsk.
We will continue the combat operations
and will try not to make the same mistakes
that we made in the past, said Girkin, a
Russian also known by his nom de guerre,
Igor Strelkov. Ukrainian authorities have
identied him as a veteran of the Russian
military intelligence agency.
Rhetoric soared Sunday afternoon at the
rally.
We will begin a real partisan war around
the whole perimeter of Donetsk, Pavel
Gubarev, the self-described governor of the
Donetsk Peoples Republic, told the crowd.
We will drown these wretches in blood.
But he said the insurgents could easily die
in Donetsk if Russia did not do more to help
them. Gubarev said rebels were forced to ee
Slovyansk because several commanders had
betrayed Girkin and left his forces there vul-
nerable to attack.
Despite the bravado in the city, the mood
was dire Sunday at a rebel checkpoint on the
outskirts of Donetsk.
We will ght to the end because we have
nowhere left to retreat, said a 32-year-old
former coal miner who would give only his
rst name, Artyom, due to fears of retalia-
tion. I dont want to fall into the hands of
the Ukrainian authorities.
Agreeing to speak on camera only after
putting on a black face mask, he said the
insurgents still hoped for help from Russia
but the hope grows weaker with every day.
Concentrating their forces in Donetsk
will both help and hinder the rebels, securi-
ty experts said.
Pro-Russia separatists
vow to keep up the fight

JERUSALEM Israel arrested six
Jewish suspects Sunday in the grisly slay-
ing of a Palestinian teenager who was
abducted and burned alive last week a
crime that set off a wave of violent
protests in Arab sections of the country.
Leaders of the Jewish state appealed for
calm amid signs the death was revenge for the
recent killings of three Israeli teenagers.
We will not allow extremists, it doesnt
matter from which side, to inflame the
region and cause bloodshed, Prime
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a
nationally televised statement. Murder is
murder, incitement is incitement, and we
will respond aggressively to both.
He promised to prosecute those responsible
to the full extent of the law.
The region has been on edge since three
Israeli teens one of them a U.S. citizen
were kidnapped while hitchhiking in the West
Bank last month. Last week, the teensbodies
were found in a West Bank eld in a crime
Israel blamed on the militant group Hamas.
Just hours after the youths were buried,
Mohammed Abu Khdeir, a 16-year-old
Palestinian from east Jerusalem, was abduct-
ed near his home, and his charred remains
were found shortly afterward in a Jerusalem
forest. Preliminary autopsy results found he
was still alive when he was set on re.
Palestinians immediately accused
Israeli extremists of killing the youth in
revenge. And on Sunday, Israeli authori-
ties said the killers had acted out of
nationalistic motives.
The suspects remained in custody and were
being interrogated, authorities said.
An Israeli ofcial said there were six sus-
pects and described them as young males,
including several minors, all of whom lived in
the Jerusalem area. The ofcial spoke on con-
dition of anonymity because the investiga-
tion was continuing.
He said police had located a car used by the
suspects. During the investigation, he said,
police learned of an attempted kidnapping the
previous day of a child in the same neighbor-
hood and concluded the cases were linked.
Israeli TV showed pictures of the 9-year-old
boy with red marks around his neck.
Abu Khdeirs family said that the arrests
brought them little joy and that they had little
faith in the Israeli justice system.
I dont have any peace in my heart, even if
they captured who they say killed my son,
said his mother, Suha. Theyre only going to
ask them questions and then release them.
Whats the point?
She added: They need to treat them the way
they treat us. They need to demolish their
homes and round them up, the way they do it
to our children.
Abu Khdeirs death triggered violence in his
neighborhood, as angry crowds destroyed
train stations and hurled rocks. The unrest
spread to sections of northern Israel over the
weekend.
On Sunday, the situation in east Jerusalem,
home to most of the citys Palestinians,
appeared to be calming down, as businesses
and markets reopened, and roads that had been
cordoned off were reopened to trafc.
Top Israeli ofcials expressed concern that
the charged atmosphere of recent days had led
to the boys killing.
After the Israeli teenagers were found dead,
several hundred Jewish extremists had
marched through downtown Jerusalem calling
for death to Arabs. Social media sites were
also ooded with calls for vengeance.
About 50 people were arrested in several
days of demonstrations following Abu
Khdeirs death, and 15 police ofcers and two
civilians were injured, authorities said.
A15-year-old Palestinian-American cousin
of Abu Khdeir was also injured in clashes with
Israeli security forces in east Jerusalem.
The boy, Tariq Abu Khdeir, who goes to
school in Florida, was ordered confined to
his home in Israel for nine days while
police investigate what they say was his
participation in violent protests a
charge his family denies.
The U.S. State Department said it was
profoundly troubled by reports that he was
beaten, and Israels Justice Ministry
launched an investigation.
As Tariq was released to his family, he was
crying and appeared badly bruised, with both
eyes and his mouth swollen. I feel better. I am
excited to be back home, he said.

Land swap issue
should have won
Editor,
The San Carlos land swap will not hap-
pen. So whose fault is that? This was an
issue that should by all rights have won.
In the front page article, District look-
ing for a land swap alternative of the
July 2 edition of the Daily Journal,
school district board members, the
school superintendent, and Mayor Olbert
voiced frustration and reiterated the wis-
dom of their stated position. Nowhere
was there any self-reection. So why did
it lose? Simple: Afailure of genuine lead-
ership. Instead of attracting what should
have been their natural allies, these civic
leaders alienated them almost from the
get-go through clumsy, heavy handed
and exclusionary tactics. Yet they con-
tinue to point a nger only at others.
Perhaps they should examine themselves
rst if they hope to learn from the expe-
rience. As Shakespeare wrote, The fault,
dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in our-
selves.

Black-robed hypocrites
Editor,
Do as I say not as I do. That should be
the motto of those black-robed shysters
in the Supreme Court. The nerve of the
court for taking away the buffer zone to
protect women from the murderous cra-
zies that hover around womens clinics.
The court says it was a free speech issue,
while the same court has no problem
denying free speech to the people when
they passed Regulation Seven:
"No person shall engage in a demon-
stration within the Supreme Court build-
ing and grounds. The term demonstra-
tion includes demonstrations, picket-
ing, speech making, marching, holding
vigils or religious services and all other
like forms of conduct that involve the
communication or expression of views
or grievances, engaged in by one or
more persons, the conduct of which is
reasonably likely to draw a crowd or
onlookers. The term does not include
casual use by visitors or tourists that is
not reasonably likely to attract a crowd
or onlookers. Approved and Effective
June 13, 2013.
The hypocrisy of this court is
impeachable.

Concerns about Fair
Labor Standards Act/OT
Editor,
I wanted to share with the public that
Governor Brown proposed that In-
Home Supportive Services (IHSS)
providers should have their hours
reduced to 40 hours a week and that this
would take effect in January 2015.
Many people with disabilities and old
age use family members for care, and if
the proposal goes through, many fami-
lies would have to step aside for other
providers to stay with the family, and
many families didnt plan on having
an extra person in their house. I have a
similar situation, as people who have
their family members often have work.
Currently, I have two providers, one in
the daytime and the other in the
evening through morning. If the pro-
posal passes, and I feel like it will,
then there would be more staff. Ive
experienced when a provider called in
sick and the agency couldnt nd a
backup; therefore, my evening
provider had to work straight until a
provider could be reached and could
come in as coverage. Where would the
additional providers stay if the family
has limited room? For those readers
who read this, I encourage you to reach
out to your assembly person and sena-
tor to put this to a stop. The state has
reduced IHSS hours by 7 percent, effec-
tive July 1 across the board. We, as
people, shouldnt allow legislators and
the governor run the lives of low-
income individuals with needs.

Letters to the editor
By Mark Olbert
L
ast week the San Carlos City
Council, on which I serve,
opted not to move forward a
proposal to swap properties with the
San Carlos Elementary School
District. The deal,
part of which
required voter
approval, would
have reduced school
site overcrowding,
better balanced rush
hour trafc conges-
tion and avoided
the loss of already
critically-short ath-
letic eld space.
Despite majorities of both the
council and the school board support-
ing the plan for technical reasons
moving forward required a four-fths
vote it died. We stepped up to the
line. And walked away.
Like any signicant public deci-
sion, parts of our community would
have beneted from the deal and parts
would have been impacted. Thats
inevitable in all but the most trivial
public actions.
But a critical responsibility for all
elected ofcials is to seek mitigations
and compromise, and to challenge
interested parties to do the same. That
was done on the Transit Village
multiple times! and in the evolu-
tion of the land swap itself. Yet
despite repeated calls to do so, that
approach was ultimately rejected by
the opposition. Instead, neighbor-
hood concerns many of which were
understandably magnied to excess
by fear and passion were used as
rationales to keep the community
from having its say at the ballot box.
That was an abdication of leadership.
Concerns over divisiveness, and
the potential for an election to tear
San Carlos apart, were also cited as
reasons for scuttling the deal. That
concern, however well-intentioned,
insults the people we represent. San
Carlos is a strong community, full of
adults who know how to disagree one
moment and collaborate the next. Our
council meetings on the swap were
lled to overowing with speakers
passionately holding beliefs on both
sides of the issue. Yet civility and
decorum prevailed. Because of the
expectations the Council set, and the
character of our community.
Elected leaders dont have to, and
shouldnt, sit idly by when big issues
go before voters. They have a role to
play beyond supporting or opposing
measures. They should set an example
through their behavior, challenge
misinformation and, when necessary,
call for decorum and reasoned debate.
Being unwilling to fulll that civic
responsibility is also an abdication
of leadership.
At the end of the day, killing the
swap did nothing to address the
issues it was designed to address. San
Carlos is on track to lose a major
athletic field, suffer worse traffic and
contend with overcrowded school
sites. Those problems will now have
to be dealt with in more difficult and
expensive ways.
Unless, of course, leadership
responsibilities get abdicated once
again. Lets hope that doesnt hap-
pen. But walking away from duty can
be a difcult habit to break.
Mark Olbert is the mayor of San
Carlosand a former member of the
school board.
Walking away The war to end all wars
T
his month we commemorate the 100th anniver-
sary of World War I. It began July 28, 1914. The
war was the result of miscalculation, misunder-
standing and miscommunication by the major European
powers. Decades later, the U.S. miscalculated and misun-
derstood what the Vietnam war was all about. Not to
mention the failure of our Iraq invasion from the very
start. But we were a hero to many people throughout the
western world when we entered the first World War.
President Woodrow Wilson was welcomed as a savior in
devastated post war Europe as he pledged to make the
world safe for democracy. He encouraged nationalistic
dreams of freedom from imperialism. But by 1919,
Wilson was telling the Senate he regretted uttering the
words all nations had a right to self-determination.
Instead the seeds were planted for future wars and eth-
nic conflicts as two major empires were destroyed-the
Austro Hungarian and Ottoman-and new countries
emerged in Europe and the Middle East. The Ottoman
empire included modern day Syria, Lebanon, Israel,
Jordan, Iran, Kuwait, the
Arabian Peninsula, and
Turkey. The war resulted in
the downfall of four
monarchies-Russia in
1917, Austria-Hungary and
Germany in 1918, and
Turkey in 1922. It con-
tributed to the Bolsheviks
take over in Russia in
1917 and the triumph of
fascism in Italy in 1922.
It also led to colonial
revolts in the Middle East
and Southeast Asia.
Apact between France
and Britain carved up the
Middle East into spheres
of influence. Syria and Lebanon went to France; Britain
took over Palestine and three Ottoman provinces of
Mesopotamia became the modern day Iraq. Many of the
worldwide conflicts of today were incubated in the after-
math of World War I. Questions of what makes a viable
nation ethnicity, culture, religion still haunt us
today.
***
The physical toll was devastating. Nine million sol-
diers died; 6 million civilians died from disease and star-
vation; one million civilians were killed as a result of
military operations. Overall, 16 million were left dead
and more than 21 million wounded. It was the first war
to use airplanes, tanks, long range artillery, submarines
and poison gas. President Wilson was blamed for not
entering the war earlier by former President Teddy
Roosevelt and some members of Congress; others
blamed him for entering Europes war. Yet the U.S. entry
was decisive. Without it the two sides were at stalemate.
But Wilson's 14 points and plans for a League of
Nations to end all wars was nixed by a republican
Congress.
***
President Barack Obama is faced with the unraveling
of Syria and Iraq because of corrupt governments, Sunni
Shia religious rivalries and the geopolitical agendas of
Saudi Arabia vs. Iran. He is urged by some to enter the
fray and by others to stay out. World War I provides
important history lessons. Number one: dont miscal-
culate or misunderstand or miscommunicate. Easier said
than done when there are no good guys, just bad. It is
easier said than done because there are no leaders in the
Middle East resembling Nehru, Nelson Mandela, even
Ho Chi Minh who put aside past hatreds to do what was
best for their country. And Obama has to deal with the
same naysayers in Congress as Woodrow Wilson. Faced
with a choice between siding with Iran and watching Iraq
slide into civil war, most republicans have decided that
it is easier to blame Mr. Obama (Economist
6/21/14). History does have a way of repeating itself.
***
As we emerge form the annual Fourth of July celebra-
tions we need to remind ourselves how lucky we were to
be blessed with great leaders and statesmen to lead our
country after the American Revolution. Their wisdom
enables us to enjoy democracy and freedom which is dif-
ficult to replicate in other parts of the world. Just imag-
ine if we had some of the characters thinking of running
for president in 2016 and some of the current members
of Congress locked up in some hot hall in Philadelphia
without air conditioning, and trying to piece together a
Declaration of Independence and Constitution by com-
promise for a common good. It wouldnt have happened.
Thank you, George Washington, John Adams, Thomas
Jefferson, James Madison and Alexander Hamilton for
being there at the right time in the right place.

BUSINESS 10
Monday July 7, 2014 THEDAILYJOURNAL
By Paul Wiseman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON How does the
U.S. economy do it?
Europe is floundering. China
faces slower growth. Japan is
struggling to sustain tentative
gains.
Yet the U.S. job market is hum-
ming, and the pace of economic
growth is steadily rising. Five full
years after a devastating recession
ofcially ended, the economy is
finally showing the vigor that
Americans have long awaited.
Last month, employers added
288,000 jobs and helped reduce
the unemployment rate to 6.1 per-
cent, the lowest since September
2008. June capped a ve-month
stretch of 200,000-plus job gains
the rst in nearly 15 years.
After having shrunk at a 2.9 per-
cent annual rate from January
through March largely because
of a brutal winter the U.S. econ-
omy is expected to grow at a
healthy 3 percent pace the rest of
the year.
Here are ve reasons the United
States is outpacing other major
economies:
AN AGGRESSIVE
CENTRAL BANK
The Federal Reserve acted
sooner and more aggressively
than other central banks in keep-
ing rates low, says Bernard
Baumohl, chief global economist
at the Economic Outlook Group.
In December 2008, the Fed
slashed short-term interest rates
to near zero and has kept them
there. Ultra-low loan rates have
made it easier for individuals and
businesses to borrow and spend.
The Fed also launched three bond-
buying programs meant to reduce
long-term rates.
By contrast, the European
Central Bank has been slower to
respond to signs of economic dis-
tress among the 18 nations that
share the euro currency. The ECB
actually raised rates in 2011 the
same year the eurozone sank back
into recession.
Its worth keeping in mind that
the Fed has two mandates: To keep
prices stable and to maximize
employment. The ECB has just
one mandate: To guard against
high ination. The Fed was led
during and after the Great
Recession by Ben Bernanke, a stu-
dent of the Great Depression who
was determined to avoid a repeat of
the 1930s economic collapse.
Janet Yellen, who succeeded
Bernanke as Fed chair this year,
has continued his emphasis on
nursing the U.S. economy back to
health after the recession of 2007-
2009 with the help of historically
low rates.
STRONGER BANKS
The United States moved faster
than Europe to restore its banks
health after the nancial crisis of
2008-2009. The U.S. government
bailed out the nancial system and
subjected big banks to stress tests
in 2009 to reveal their nancial
strength. By showing the banks
to be surprisingly healthy, the
stress tests helped restore con-
dence in the U.S. nancial system.
Banks gradually started lending
again. European banks are only
now undergoing stress tests, and
the results wont be out until fall.
In the meantime, Europes banks
lack confidence. They fear that
other banks are holding too many
bad loans and that Europe is vul-
nerable to another crisis. So they
arent lending much.
In the United States, overall
bank lending is up nearly 4 per-
cent in the past year. Lending to
business has jumped 10 percent.
In the eurozone, lending has
dropped 3.7 percent overall,
according to figures from the
Institute of International Finance.
Lending to business is off 2.5 per-
cent. (The U.S. gures are for the
year ending in mid-June; the
European gures are from May. )
A MORE FLEXIBLE ECONOMY
Economists say Japan and
Europe need to undertake
reforms to make their economies
more flexible more, in other
words, like Americas.
Europe needs to lift wage restric-
tions that prevent employers from
cutting pay (rather than eliminat-
ing jobs) when times are bad. It
could also rethink welfare and
retirement programs that discour-
age people from working and dis-
mantle policies that protect
favored businesses and block
innovative newcomers, the
Organization for Economic
Cooperation and Development
has argued.
Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has
proposed reforms meant to make
the Japanese economy more com-
petitive. He wants to expand child
care so more women can work,
replace small inefficient farms
with more large-scale commercial
farms and allow more foreign
migrant workers to fill labor
shortages in areas such as nursing
and construction.
Yet his proposals face fierce
opposition.
Europe and Japan remain less
well-positioned for durable long-
term growth, as they have only
recently begun to tackle their
deep-rooted structural problems,
and a lot remains to be done, says
Eswar Prasad, a professor of trade
policy at Cornell University.
China is struggling to manage a
transition from an economy based
on exports and often wasteful
investment in real estate and fac-
tories to a sturdier but likely slow-
er-growing economy based on
more consumer spending.

Kelly Parker was thrilled when
she landed her dream job in 2012
providing tech support for Harley-
Davidsons Tomahawk,
Wisconsin, plants. The divorced
mother of three hoped it was the
beginning of a new career with the
motorcycle company.
The dream didnt last long.
Parker claims she was laid off one
year later after she trained her
replacement, a newly arrived
worker from India. Now she has
joined a federal lawsuit alleging
the global stafng rm that ran
Harley-Davidsons tech support
discriminated against American
workers in part by replacing
them with temporary workers
from South Asia.
The firm, India-based Infosys
Ltd., denies wrongdoing and con-
tends, as many companies do, that
it has faced a shortage of talent
and specialized skill sets in the
U.S. Like other firms, Infosys
wants Congress to allow even
more of these temporary workers.
But amid calls for expanding the
nations so-called H-1B visa pro-
gram, there is growing pushback
from Americans who argue the
program has been hijacked by
staffing companies that import
cheaper, lower-level workers to
replace more expensive U.S.
employees or keep them from
getting hired in the rst place.
Its getting pretty frustrating
when you cant compete on salary
for a skilled job, said Rich
Hajinlian, a veteran computer pro-
grammer from the Boston area.
You hear references all the time
that these big companies ... cant
nd skilled workers. I am a skilled
worker.
Hajinlian, 56, who develops his
own web applications on the side,
said he applied for a job in April
through a headhunter and that the
potential client appeared interest-
ed, scheduling a longer interview.
Then, said Hajinlian, the head-
hunter called back and said the
client had gone with an H-1B
worker whose annual salary was
about $10,000 less.
I didnt even get a chance to
negotiate down, he said.
The H-1B program allows
employers to temporarily hire
workers in specialty occupations.
The government issues up to
85,000 H-1B visas to businesses
every year, and recipients can stay
up to six years. Although no one
tracks exactly how many H-1B
holders are in the U.S., experts
estimate there are at least 600,000
at any one time. Skilled guest
workers can also come in on other
types of visas.
An immigration bill passed in
the U.S. Senate last year would
have increased the number of
annually available H-1B visas to
180,000 while raising fees and
increasing oversight, although
language was removed that would
have required all companies to
consider qualified U.S. workers
before foreign workers are hired.
The House never acted on the
measure. With immigration reform
considered dead this year in
Congress, President Barack
Obama last week declared he will
use executive actions to address
some changes. It is not known
whether the H-1B program will be
on the agenda.
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg
is among the high-prole execu-
tives pushing for more H-1Bs. The
argument has long been that there
arent enough qualied American
workers to ll certain jobs, espe-
cially in science, engineering and
technology. Advocates also assert
that some visa holders will stay
and become entrepreneurs.
Critics say there is no across-
the-board shortage of American
tech workers, and that if there
were, wages would be rising rapid-
l y. Instead, wage gains for soft-
ware developers have been mod-
est, while wages have fallen for
programmers.
The liberal Economic Policy
Institute reported last year that
only half of U.S. college graduates
in science, engineering and tech-
nology found jobs in those elds
and that at least one third of IT
jobs were going to foreign guest
workers.
The top users of H-1B visas
arent even tech companies like
Google and Facebook. Eight of
the 10 biggest H1-B users last
year were outsourcing rms that
hire out thousands of mostly
lower- and mid-level tech workers
to corporate clients, according to
an analysis of federal data by Ron
Hira, an associate professor of
public policy at Rochester
Institute of Technology. The top
10 firms accounted for about a
third of the H-1Bs allotted last
year.
The debate over whether foreign
workers are taking jobs isnt new,
but for years it centered on low-
wage sectors like agriculture and
construction. The high-skilled
visas have thrust a new sector of
American workers into the fray:
the middle class.
Backlash stirs in U.S. against foreign worker visas

WASHINGTON When the
U.S. National Security Agency
intercepted the online accounts of
legally targeted foreigners over a
four-year period it also collected
the conversations of nine times as
many ordinary Internet users,
both Americans and non-
Americans, according to a probe
by The Washington Post.
Nearly half of those surveillance
files contained names, email
addresses or other details that the
NSA marked as belonging to U.S.
citizens or residents, the Post
reported in a story posted on its
website Saturday night. While the
federal agency tried to protect
their privacy by masking more
than 65,000 such references to
individuals, the newspaper said it
found nearly 900 additional email
addresses that could be strongly
linked to U.S. citizens or resi-
dents.
At the same time, the intercept-
ed messages contained material of
considerable intelligence value,
the Post reported, such as informa-
tion about a secret overseas
nuclear project, double-dealing by
an ostensible ally, a military
calamity that befell an unfriendly
power, and the identities of
aggressive intruders into U.S.
computer networks.
As an example, the newspaper
said the les showed that months
of tracking communications
across dozens of alias accounts led
directly to the capture in 2011 of a
Pakistan-based bomb builder sus-
pected in a 2002 terrorist bomb-
ing in Bali. The Post said it was
withholding other examples, at
the request of the CIA, that would
compromise ongoing investiga-
tions.
The material reviewed by the
Post included roughly 160,000
intercepted e-mail and instant-
message conversations, some of
them hundreds of pages long, and
7,900 documents taken from more
than 11,000 online accounts. It
spanned President Barack Obamas
rst term, 2009 to 2012, and was
provided to the Post by former
NSAanalyst Edward Snowden.
The daily lives of more than
10,000 account holders who were
not targeted were catalogued and
recorded, the Post reported. The
newspaper described that material
as telling stories of love and
heartbreak, illicit sexual liaisons,
mental-health crises, political and
religious conversions, financial
anxieties and disappointed
hopes. The material collected
included more than 5,000 private
photos, the paper said.
The cache Snowden provided to
the newspaper came from domes-
tic NSA operations under the
broad authority granted by
Congress in 2008 with amend-
ments to the Foreign
Intelligence Surveillance Act,
according to the Post.
By law, the NSA may target
only foreign nationals located
overseas unless it obtains a war-
rant based on probable cause
from a special surveillance
court, the Post said. Incidental
collection of third-party com-
munications is inevitable in
many forms of surveillance,
according to the newspaper. In
the case of the material Snowden
provided, those in an online chat
room visited by a target or mere-
ly reading the discussion were
included in the data sweep, as
were hundreds of people using a
computer server whose Internet
protocol was targeted.

LONDON Novak Djokovics large lead
in the rollicking Wimbledon nal was slip-
ping away, due in no small part to Roger
Federers regal presence and resurgent play.
No man has won tennis oldest major tour-
nament more often than Federer, and he was
not about to let it go easily. Djokovic went
from being a point from victory in the
fourth set to suddenly
caught in the crucible of a
fifth, and knew all too
well that he had come up
short in recent Grand
Slam title matches.
Steeling himself when
he so desperately needed
to, Serbias Djokovic
held on for a 6-7 (7), 6-4,
7-6 (4), 5-7, 6-4 victory
after nearly four hours of momentum shifts
Sunday to win Wimbledon for the second
time and deny Switzerlands Federer what
would have been a record eighth champi-
onship at the All England Club.
I could have easily lost my concentra-
tion in the fth and just handed him the win.
But I didnt, and thats why this win has a
special importance to me, mentally,
Djokovic said. I managed to not just win
against my opponent, but win against
myself, as well, and find that inner
strength.
Cradling his trophy during the post-
match ceremony, Djokovic addressed
Federer directly, saying: I respect your
career and everything you have done. And
thank you for letting me win today.
Even Federer had to smile at that line.

Shane Hawkins is mobbed by his teammates after a solo bomb during Pacica Americans 8-5 win over Belmont-Redwood Shores.
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Pacica American is the only unbeaten team
remaining in the District 52 Majors
Tournament.
With Saturdays 8-5 seminal victory over
Belmont-Redwood Shores at Red Morton
Park, Pacica is one win away from the
Section 3 tourney. It is familiar territory for
the team which won the section crown in 2012
as 10-year-olds. With a return well within their
sights, and the squad having outscored oppo-
nents 62-13 through four games, the thought
of Pacica being a contender for a run at the
Little League World Series in Williamsport,
Pennsylvania is fast becoming a reality.
I denitely think theyre well aware of
that, Pacica manager Steve Falk said.
Coach Falk isnt allowing his players to get
ahead of themselves though. The usually
straightforward manager is quite guarded at the
mention of Williamsport. Instead, he seems
more mindful of the task at hand. And at pres-
ent, the task is Tuesdays nal-round matchup
with one of San Mateo American, Palo Alto
American or Belmont-Redwood Shores.
Our district is one of the toughest districts
to get out of, Coach Falk said. There are ve
or six teams who can win it. So, its more
important to win our district and our team
has a chance to win it three (consecutive)
times, which is special.
In Saturdays win, Pacica relied on its usual
timely hitting. But the pitching matchup
between Pacica right-hander Christian Falk
and Belmont-Redwood Shores left-hander
Drew Dowd was particularly intriguing.
Falk dazzled through 3 2/3 innings to earn
the win. He was relentless to the strike zone,
allowing just one run on four hits while

Entering into Saturdays championship
round for the District 6 Babe Ruth 14-year-old
All-Star Tournament, Palo Alto needed two
wins to upset undefeated Bel-Mateo.
Backed by an epic performance from its
secret weapon Ole Erickson, Palo Alto did just
that. In making his debut with the team
Saturday, Erickson swung Palo Alto to a sweep
in the championship round with wins of 5-4
and 15-5 at the Belmont Sports Complex.
Erickson and his all-star teammate Niko
Lillios joined Palo Alto Saturday after return-
ing from a trip to Arizona with their travel-
ball team California Club Baseball. Both were
key components to Palo Altos success as
Lillios earned the win on the mound in Game
2. And Erickson was a force at the plate, going
5 for 6 with six RBIs throughout the decisive
doubleheader.
I was fortunate enough to have our [No. 1
and 2] guys get on base almost every time,
Erickson said. I was just trying to get a hit to
keep it going because I know I have guys hit-
ting behind me that can get it done.
Ericksons biggest hit on the day capped a
comeback in extra inning for Palo Alto in
Game 1. In Game 2, Palo Alto tabbed crooked
numbers in four of ve innings, cruising to a
mercy-rule win against a noticeably lack-
adaisical Bel-Mateo squad.
We were a little worn out, Bel-Mateo man-
ager Nic Bojarski said. Theres a little bit of
fatigue involved. I can not make excuses and
blame the loss on that though. Its baseball.
Bel-Mateo looked poised to capture the
championship in extra innings after breaking
a 3-3 tie in the top of the ninth on an RBI sin-
gle by Ryan McWilliams.
From there I was thinking, Holy smokes,
were going to state, Bojarski said. But

OAKLAND Jeff
Samardzija pitched seven
strong innings to win his
Oakland debut and the
Athletics beat the
Toronto Blue Jays 4-2 on
Sunday to complete a
four-game sweep.
Samardzija, acquired a
day earlier in a trade with
the Chicago Cubs,
received several standing ovations. He was
cheered during pregame warmups and again
after striking out the side in the seventh.
Samardzija gave up one run and four hits.
He struck out ve and walked one while earn-
ing his rst win since June 7.
With the Cubs, Samardzija was 2-7 despite
a 2.83 ERA.
Jed Lowrie had two hits and scored twice,
and leadoff hitter John Jaso added a pair of
hits and an RBI for the As, who won their
fourth straight following a three-game
sweep in Detroit.
Stephen Vogt singled and tripled to help
the As complete their rst series sweep of
the Blue Jays since taking a three-game
series in 2000. Oakland hadnt swept a four-
game series from Toronto since May 22-24,
1981.
Nate Freiman and Craig Gentry also drove
in runs for the As .
Lowrie doubled and scored in the second,
then Oakland added two more in the fourth to
extend their majors-leading record to 55-33.
Pinch-hitter Derek Norris added an RBI
double in the eighth for Oakland.
Steve Tolleson had a pinch-hit home run
off As closer Sean Doolittle in the ninth for
the Blue Jays, who have lost six straight on
the road. Doolittle got his 13th save.

D
id you know that 30 million Americans
suffer from back and neck pain every day?
Sciatica and herniated discs are often
misunderstood. They can cause pain and
numbness in the back, neck, legs, and feet. This
pain affects everything that you do, from work
to play, and ultimately your quality of life. We
are here to tell you that there is hope. We have
the technology and experience to help you fnd
relief from sciatica and back pain. At Bay Area
Disc Centers, we have helped thousands of pain
sufferers just like you. We offer only the most
advanced non-surgical treatments.
Are pain pills effective, long-term solutions
when dealing with Sciatica and Back Pain?
ABSOLUTELY NOT!
Until now, people have masked their pain by
frequently taking prescription pain pills. This
type of pain relief is temporary. Often these
treatments lead to even more health problems
or worse yet addiction. Many people innocently
fall into abusing prescription pain pills while
initially using them to alleviate real, constant pain.
Is Surgery the Answer?
It is true that surgery may be the answer for
certain types of back injuries. When considering
your options, ask yourself this question
If there is a solution to back pain that doesnt
require surgery, is it worth exploring?
The Solution: TDC
TM
Therapy
TDC TherapyTraction Decompression Combined
Therapyis a proven treatment exclusive to Disc
Centers of America doctors for the relief of neck
and lower back pain. By utilizing traction thats
isolated to the spinal segment involved, the
purpose is to create spinal decompression as a
result to specifc traction.
TDC Therapy offers a significant success rate
and patients have experienced dramatic pain
relief and healing. This non surgical solution
is changing the way doctors treat severe disc
conditions. TDC Therapy is a unique and
innovative approach for the relief of neck and
lower back syndromes, including:
Herniated or buging discs
De-generative disc disease
Posterior facet syndrome
Spina Stenosis
Sciatica
TDC Therapy is non surgical and non invasive. It is
a gentle form of traction and disc decompression.
The treatment is not only safe, but also
comfortable and relaxing. The goal is symptomatic
relief and structural correction.
How Does TDC
TM
Therapy Work?
TDC Therapy can isolate a specifc vertebra and
distract the vertebrae surrounding an injured
disc 5 to 7 millimeters. TDC Therapy treatment
isolates the specific vertebrae that are causing
the pain. The 25 to 30 minute treatment
provides static, intermittent, and cycling
forces on structures that may be causing
back pain. Negative pressure promotes the
diffusion of water, oxygen, and nutrients into
the vertebral disc area, thereby re-hydrating
the degenerated disc. Repeated pressure
differential promotes retraction of a herniated
nucleus pulposus.
The TDC Therapy treatment works to reduce
pressure on the vertebral joints,promote
retraction of herniated discs, and promote self
healing and rehabilitation of damaged discs,
thereby relieving neck or lower back pain.
Why Bay Area Disc Centers
Dr. Thomas Ferrigno D.C. and his team have vast
experience in treating patients suffering from
severe disc disease. Dr. Ferrigno has performed
over 25,000 decompression treatments and
is currently only 1 of 2 doctors in the state of
California who is Nationally Certied in Spinal
Decompression Therapy. Dr. Ferrigno is also part
of the Disc Centers of America Team who are a
national group of doctors that have gone through
extensive training that follow the protocols set up
by The International Medical Advisory Board on
Spinal Decompression, and utilizes the protocols
set forward by Dr. Norman Sheay the Honorary
Chairman, former Harvard professor, and probaby
the most published doctor in the world on spinal
decompression therapy.

youve got to give credit where
credit is due. Palo Alto played a
great game. They hit us where
it hurt.
Palo Alto made Bel-Mateo pay
for two costly errors to open the
bottom of the ninth. McWilliams,
Bel-Mateos second baseman, was
charged with an error on a pop-up
to shallow right eld to start the
inning. McWilliams had the ball in
his glove, but as the right elder
collided with him, the ball fell to
the turf allowing Palo Altos leadoff
man to reach base.
After a Bel-Mateo throwing
error put runners at rst and third
with no outs, Sean Young tabbed
an RBI single to tie it. Erickson
then stepped to the plate with run-
ners at first and second and
promptly laced a single to right-
center to score Tony Masetti with
the game-winner.
The ninth-inning letdown cost
Bel-Mateo reliever Zane Van
Arsdel. Van Arsdel entered at the
start of the seventh and pitched
through a rst-and-third, one-out
jam by inducing a groundball dou-
ble play. In the eighth, he stranded
another Palo Alto runner in scoring
position by pitching through
shoddy defensive play.
Van Arsdel headed into the bot-
tom of the ninth in line for a win.
But Palo Alto capitalized on Bel-
Mateos errors by touching the
right-hander for two unearned runs
and sticking him with the hard-
luck loss.
In Game 2, Palo Alto picked up
right where it left off with the bats
by rallying for three runs in the
rst to take a 3-1 lead. After adding
three runs in the third, Bel-Mateo
generated a four-run rally by send-
ing nine batters to the plate in the
fourth to close to within a run.
McWilliams sparked the Bel-
Mateo rally with a leadoff single.
Van Arsdel and cleanup hitter Casey
Williamson drew back-to-back
walks to load the bases. Josh
Vasquez then hit a comebacker
which saw McWilliams pegged at
the plate. But with the bases still
loaded, Sean Prozell launched a
two-run double to left-center. Asac-
rifice fly from Ben Carrithers
brought home Vasquez. And Zack
Smurthwaite singled home Prozell,
cutting Palo Altos lead to 6-5
before Matt Gursky came on in
relief to escape the jam with the
lead intact.
It was as close as Bel-Mateo
would get though, as Palo Alto
stormed right back with its third
three-run rally of the game in the
bottom of the fourth. Then in the
fth, Palo Alto sent 10 batters to
the plate amid a six-run rally to
invoke the 10-run mercy rule.
Zach Weseloh had the decisive
RBI knock, plating Timmy Goode
to end it.
The stars aligned for Palo Altos
pitchers en route to the champi-
onship triumph. Entering into
Saturday play, the team had
received two consecutive complete
games one from David Clarke in
a 3-2 loss Thursday to Bel-Mateo,
and a ve-inning effort Friday from
Shane Wallace in a mercy-rule
blowout of Mountain View.
Gurskys relief outing in
Saturdays nightcap also loomed
large. The right-hander faced the
minimum through 1 1/3 innings to
earn the save.
By the time we got to [Gursky],
we were probably down to our last
actual pitcher, Palo Alto manager
Rick Farr said.
With the win, Palo Alto advances
to the Babe Ruth 14-Year-Old All-
Star State Tournament in
Woodland. Play begins Saturday at
Clark Field.
The Babe Ruth 13-15-Year-Old
All-Star State Tournament will be
hosted by the Belmont Sports
Complex beginning July 19.

Okert rolls into Richmond
After his All-Star rst half at San
Francisco Giants High-Aafliate San
Jose, pitching prospect Steven
Okert was promoted to Double-A
Richmond in late June.
Since his June 25 debut at
Richmond, in which he earned a save
against Washington Nationals afli-
ate Harrisburg, the left-handed closer
has yet to surrender a run through ve
outings. Through seven innings he
has allowed just three hits while
striking out 10 against two walks.
Converting three saves for the
Flying Squirrels, Okert has totaled
22 saves on the year between High-A
and Double-A; and that doesnt
include the dramatic save he earned
June 17 in the
C a l i f o r n i a -
Carolina League
All-Star Game.
Richmond is cur-
rently employ-
ing a two-closer
system, with
r i g h t - h a n d e r
Cody Hall hav-
ing tabbed 10
saves in 34 appearances this season.
Right-hander Derek Law still paces
Richmond with 13 saves. The 23-
year-old prospect was placed on the
disabled list with tightness in his
right forearm on June 10, however,
and has since undergone Tommy
John surgery.
Okert is one of the three relief
pitchers in the Giants farm system
to be named to his respective All-Star
team this season. Okert earned the
honor in the California League,
while Triple-A Fresno closer Heath
Hembree was recently named to the
Pacic Coast League All-Star squad
for the upcoming Triple-A All-Star
Game July 16 in Durham, North
Carolina. Low-AAugusta right-han-
der Jake Smith was named to the
South Atlantic League South team
and pitched one shutout inning in the
June 17 Sally League All-Star Game.
Nunez on re at Stockton
With the Oakland As trading top
prospect Addison Russell to the Cubs
in a package deal for ace right-hander
Jeff Samardzija, the status of the As
top position prospect effectively
falls to Renato Nunez.
Ranked the fth overall prospect
in Oaklands farm system by
Baseball America
prior to the sea-
son and the
second overall
p o s i t i o n
prospect behind
s h o r t s t o p
Russell Nunez
has fullled the
hype by proving
one of the top
power hitters in the California
League at High-AStockton this sea-
son.
Nunez ranks second in the
California League with 18 home
runs, second only to Ports teammate
Matt Olson with 24.
After a slow start this season,
Nunez was not named to the
California League All-Star team. But
the 20-year-old has been on re ever
since. He hit .368 (32 for 87) with
seven home runs and 18 RBIs in the
month of June. The hot streak has
carried over into July, as he has hit
.350 (7 for 20) with two homers and
six RBIs through ve games.
The day prior to the announcement
of Saturdays blockbuster trade
which saw the As acquire Samardzija
and right-hander Jason Hammel in
exchange for Russell, minor-league
outelder Billy McKinney and right-
hander Dan Straily As shortstop
prospect David Robertson posted
quite a night for High-A Stockton.
Robertson prefaced the Fourth of
July reworks at San Joses
Municipal Stadium by going 3 for 4
with a home run and six RBIs. Nunez
and Olson each homered in the game
as well, as the Ports went on to a 17-
6 rout of the minor-league Giants.

NEWYORK The trade that put
Jeff Samardzija on a postseason con-
tender cost him a chance to pitch in
his rst All-Star game.
A day after Samardzija was dealt
from the Chicago Cubs to Oakland, a
big league-high six Athletics were
picked Sunday for the game at Target
Field in Minnesota on July 15.
That doesnt include Samardzija,
selected as an NL All-Star. Major
League Baseball said he is ineligible
to play because of the league switch.
The right-hander will be introduced
with the NLplayers. Still to be decid-
ed is whether he wears a Cubs or As
uniform or a generic NLjersey.
The former Notre Dame receiver
was 2-7 with a 2.83 ERA and 103
strikeouts for the Cubs. In his
debut for Oakland on Sunday,
Samardzija allowed one run in
seven innings for a 4-2 victory
over Toronto.
Oakland has its most All-Stars since
1975: left-handers Sean Doolittle and
Scott Kazmir; catcher Derek Norris;
rst baseman Brandon Moss; third
baseman Josh Donaldson; and out-
elder Yoenis Cespedes.

striking out eight, and needing just
53 pitches to do so. Dowd, for the
most part, kept pace. While the
southpaw got touched for three
runs through 3 2/3 innings, he
struck out eight on 67 pitches
while holding the top four hitters
in Pacicas order to a 1-for-7 day.
For what this team has done in
the past were going to see
everybodys top pitchers across
the board, Coach Falk said. But
were going to nd a way to manu-
facture runs. Arun here, a run there,
it adds up.
Indeed, Pacica got to Dowd by
utilizing the bottom half of its bat-
ting order.
In the second, No. 5-hitter
Andrew Harkness led of the inning
with a solid single to right. Chris
Rodriguez followed with a knock
to move pinch runner Mateo
Jimenez to third. With one out,
Spencer Karalus singled home
Jimenez to get Pacifica on the
board. After Pacifica loaded the
bases on a single by No. 9-hitter
Tyler Shaw, Elijah Ricks came
through with a clutch two-out sin-
gle to score Rodriguez, giving
Pacica a 2-0 lead.
In the fourth, Pacica ashed its
patented power when Shane
Hawkins subbing into the No. 8
spot in the order launched an
opposite-eld home run to right. It
was the 17th home run hit by
Pacica through the tournament,
but the only one of the game.
Every game, were not depend-
ing on our big hitters, Coach Falk
said. The bottom of our order has
been getting on and doing their
job. Rolling our order over and set-
ting it up for our big hitters, its a
big deal.
Belmont-Redwood Shores got
on the board in the bottom of the
fourth. With one out, Daylin
McLemore, Ben Fong and Aidan
Feeley had three straight singles to
load the bases. Then with Ricks
entering in relief of Falk, a wild
pitch allowed McLemore to score,
closing Pacicas lead to 3-1.
But Pacica got it back, and then
some, with two runs in the fth and
three more in the sixth. Facing the
Belmont-Redwood Shores bullpen,
Pacica loaded the bases before
Rodriguez walked to force home
Falk. Then Nate Azzopardi singled
home Justice Turner, giving
Pacica a 5-1 lead.
In the sixth, Shaw led off with a
walk and Cruise Thompson sin-
gled. Shaw advanced to third on a
y out by Ricks. Falk followed
with a sacrice y. Harkness and
Rodriguez then produced back-to-
back RBI singles, extending
Pacicas lead to 8-1.
The insurance runs loomed large
as Belmont-Redwood Shores
scored four times in the bottom of
the sixth. McLemore led off with a
walk. Fong switched places with
him on a elders choice. Feeley
singled. And Tyler McCabe singled
to score McLemore. With two outs,
Logan Snow walked to load the
bases. Then A.J. Paterra came
through with an RBI single to
score Feeley. Dowd capped the
days scoring with a two-run dou-
ble to score McCabe and Snow.
Rodriguez entered in relief of
Ricks in the sixth to save it.
The benet of Falks efcient
outing is he will be available for
full pitching duty Tuesday and, if
necessary, Wednesday. With an 85-
pitch limit per week on Majors
pitchers, Falks pitch count would
have rolled over from Saturday had
he surpassed the 50-pitch limit.
But because he had less than 50
pitches going into the last at-bat
of his outing, his pitch count qual-
ies as a relief outing and resets
after two off-days, according to
Coach Falk.
We have all our pitching going
into Tuesday and we have to be
beat twice, Coach Falk said. And
weve only ever been beat twice
(in a row) once, and that was two
years ago.
Adding intrigue to Falks
usage as a pitcher is it vacates
his usual shortstop position.
Pacificas alternate shortstop is
Thompson a hyper-athletic
and versatile player who just
happens to throw left-handed. A
natural center fielder who also
pitches, Thompson will contin-
ue to man the shortstop position
throughout the summer whenev-
er Falk is on the mound, accord-
ing to Coach Falk.
Hes been doing it all year,
Coach Falk said. So, weve got
condence in him.

SAN DIEGO Eleven
days after no-hitting the
Padres, Tim Lincecum
took a shutout into the
seventh inning against
San Diego to lead the San
Francisco Giants to a 5-3
victory Sunday.
Lincecum (8-5) extended
his scoreless streak to 23
1-3 innings before Brooks
Conrad hit a solo homer in the seventh to
knock him out of the game.
The streak started with his second career no-
hitter against San Diego on June 25. Lincecum
followed that with eight scoreless innings in a 5-
0 win over St. Louis on Tuesday.
The two-time Cy Young Award winner allowed
one run on three hits, walked four and struck out
six. Lincecum has won all three starts this sea-
son against San Diego and improved his mark
against the Padres to 16-6 in 29 career starts.
Lincecum threw his rst no-hitter at San
Diego on July 13, 2013.
The Giants, who had dropped 18 of 22 games
after they lost the opener Friday, won two
straight to win only their second series in near-
ly a month.
Brandon Belt drove in two runs for San
Francisco and Hunter Pence had three hits,
extending his season-best hitting streak to 11
games, and scored three runs.
Rookie Joe Panik and Michael Morse each
had an RBI.
Three relievers combined with Lincecum on a
four-hitter. Santiago Casilla pitched the ninth
for his third save in six chances.
Yasmani Grandal hit a two-run homer, his
seventh, off former closer Sergio Romo in the
eighth inning to cut the Giants lead to 5-3.
The Padres did not get their first hit off
Lincecum until there were two outs in the
fourth.
Belt singled in a run in the rst and had a sac-
rice y in San Franciscos two-run eighth.
Lincecum carries

Toronto got a stellar outing from starter
Drew Hutchison but for the fourth straight
game had little success offensively. The Blue
Jays went 0 for 18 with runners in scoring
position during the series.
They didnt have many opportunities against
Samardzija and two relievers. Toronto managed
just four baserunners over the nal eight
innings and had only two get past rst base.
Oakland general manager Billy Beane got
Samardzija and pitcher Jason Hammel for a
package of prospects that included the two
most recent rst-round draft picks by the As .
Samardzija pitched out of a two-on, one-
out jam in the rst by getting cleanup hitter
Jose Bautista to ground into an inning-end-
ing double play. Samardzija retired 13 of the
next 14 batters he faced until Jose Reyes sin-
gled with one out in the sixth.
Munenori Kawasaki followed with a double
and Melky Cabreras groundout scored Reyes.
Hutchison (6-7) struck out four and walked
two in his rst career start against the As .
The punchless Blue Jays went into the
game shorthanded. Edwin Encarnacion
strained his right quad legging out an ineld
grounder on Saturday and was held out of the
lineup. The Toronto slugger underwent an
MRI before the game, though the results
were not disclosed.

Yankees acquire McCarthy,
Soriano designated for assignment
ATLANTA The New York Yankees have
bolstered their rotation by acquiring right-han-
der Brandon McCarthy from Arizona.
The Diamondbacks, who are sending New
York cash in Sundays deal for left-hander Vidal
Nuno. The trade was announced by the Yankees.
The move comes after Yankees left-hander
CC Sabathia had a setback with a degenerative
cartilage problem in his right knee. New York
was unable to work out a trade for the CubsJeff
Samardzija, who instead was dealt to Oakland.
Also, the Yankees designated Alfonso
Soriano for assignment on Sunday.
Soriano returned to New York midway
through last season and sparked the offense
with 17 home runs in 58 games.
But Soriano hit just .221 this season with six
homers and 23 RBIs in 67 games. He has been
splitting time in right eld with Ichiro Suzuki
since Carlos Beltran was injured but has mostly
played sparingly in a crowded outeld. Soriano
has not homered since May 17 and has struck
out 71 times.

credit for guring out a way to raise his
Grand Slam total to seven titles and allows
him to overtake Rafael Nadal at No. 1 in the
rankings.
Novak deserved it at the end, clearly,
said Federer, who hadnt been to a Grand
Slam nal since winning his 17th major at
Wimbledon in 2012, but it was extremely
close.
Federer, who turns 33 next month, won 88
of 89 service games through the seminals
and produced 29 aces in the final, but
Djokovic broke him four times.
Federer went to the net aggressively, only
to see Djokovic zoom more than a dozen
passing shots past him. And with most of
the Centre Court crowd of about 15,000 rau-
cously cheering for Federer, the 27-year-old
Djokovic kept believing in himself.
That part might have been the most dif-
cult, given that Djokovic lost his past three
major nals, and ve of his past six, includ-
ing against Andy Murray at Wimbledon last
year, and against Nadal at the French Open
last month.
Started doubting, of course, a little bit,
Djokovic said. I needed this win a lot.
Boris Becker, the three-time Wimbledon
champion who began coaching Djokovic
this season, called the new champion the
biggest competitor and praised his sense
of not giving up, giving it always another
try.
It couldve gone either way in the fth
set, said Becker, whose former rival as a
player, Stefan Edberg, coaches Federer.
Novak nds another way. He digs deep and
nds another way.
Djokovic built a 5-2 lead in the fourth set
and served for the championship at 5-3. But
Federer broke there for the rst time all after-
noon, smacking a forehand winner as
Djokovic slipped and fell on a patch of
brown dirt.
Djokovic took a nastier tumble in the sec-
ond set, hurting his left leg and prompting
the rst of two medical timeouts; he got his
right calf massaged by a trainer in the fth.
With Federer serving at 5-4 in the fourth,
he double-faulted to 30-all, then netted a
backhand for 30-40 handing Djokovic a
match point.
Federer hit a 118 mph (190 kph) serve that
was called out, but he challenged the ruling,
and the replay showed the ball touched a line
for an ace. That was part of Federers ve-
game run to force a fth set. It would be
another 42 minutes until Djokovic again
stood so close to triumph.
Cant believe I made it to ve, Federer
said. Wasnt looking good there for a
while.
In truth, after so much drama, the ending
was anticlimactic. Trailing 5-4 but serving,
Federer missed four groundstrokes, pushing
a backhand into the net on Djokovics sec-
ond match point.
Victory his, Djokovic knelt on the most
hallowed tennis court in the world, plucked a
blade of grass and shoved it in his mouth,
just as he did after his 2011 Wimbledon title.
He dedicated this victory to his pregnant
ancee and our future baby, and to Jelena
Gencic, his rst tennis coach, who died last
year.
This is the best tournament in the world,
the most valuable one, Djokovic said. The
rst tennis match that I ever (saw) in my life,
when I was 5 years old, was Wimbledon, and
that image stuck (in) my mind.

SHEFFIELD, England Italys
Vincenzo Nibali outfoxed other Tour de
France contenders to win the second stage
Sunday, wresting the overall race leaders
yellow jersey.
The Astana team leader pointed a finger
skyward as he led a breakaway bunch to
finish first in the 201-kilometer (125-
mile) ride over nine rolling hills and
through the heath of Yorkshire, England.
Peter Sagan of Slovakia was second, and
Belgiums Greg van Avermaet was third
each two seconds behind.
Over the last six kilometers, several of
the pre-race favorites to win the three-
week race played a cat-and-mouse game,
quickly exchanging leadership of the
breakaway bunch. But Nibali, a 29-year-
old who won the Italian Giro last year,
timed an attack perfectly bursting
ahead with less than 2 kilometers to go,
and holding off surging chasers.
Marcel Kittel, a powerful sprinter who
often struggles on climbs, trailed far behind
and lost the yellow jersey that he had cap-
tured by winning Stage 1.
Massive crowds lined the route from York
to Shefeld. One of the British stars in the
race, Mark Cavendish, dropped out before
Stage 2 amid pain from a separated right
shoulder sustained in a crash Saturday.
While Yorkshire doesnt have ascents on a
par with the Alps or Pyrenees in France, rid-
ers faced nine low- to mid-grade climbs. The
hardest was the 4.7-kilometer Holme Moss
pass, and the steepest was also the shortest:
The 800-meter Jenkin Road pass, with an
average gradient of 10.8 percent just 5
kilometers from the nish line.
England is hosting the rst three stages of
the three-week race before it enters France.
New roads for cyclings greatest race also
mean new audiences, some of whom are so
enthusiastic and eager for a sele with the
pack that they dont realize the hazards of
getting too close to the riders as they whirr
by. There are simply too many people for
barriers that race organizers erect in crowd-
ed spots, making the course more treacher-
ous for the riders.
On the up-and-down, picturesque course, the
197-rider peloton scaled a narrow, cobble-
stone hill in Haworth, where the Bronte sisters
the famous 19th-century novelists lived
when their father was parson in the town.
Mondays stage should be a far less gru-
eling ride: Riders cover 155 kilometers
(96 miles) from university town
Cambridge to London, where the pack will
finish on the Mall not far from Big Ben
and Westminster Abbey.

SAINT-QUENTIN-EN-YVE-
LINES, France Graeme
McDowell of Northern Ireland
came from eight shots back to
retain his French Open title
Sunday, shooting a 4-under 67 in
pouring rain to win by one shot.
McDowell made the best of the
tough conditions, making five
birdies and a bogey for the lowest
round of the day to nish with a 5-
under 279 total.
That goes back to my upbring-
ing a little bit in my teens, play-
ing through all weathers and con-
ditions, McDowell said. Playing
golf in bad weather is an art form.
Some guys are good at it, some
guys are not.
Overnight leader Kevin Stadler
only managed a 76 to share second
place with Thongchai Jaidee, who
carded a 72. Stadler still had a
chance to win it on the on the last
hole, but he missed a long birdie
putt. He then failed to even force a
playoff when he missed a three-
footer for par.
I think its very hard to lose the
same tournament twice on the
same day and I managed to do it,
Stadler said.
McDowell had seven top-10 n-
ishes this year on the European
Tour and PGATour before entering
this tournament.
Ive pretty much thought of
myself a decent bad weather golfer,
until the last five years,
McDowell said. I feel like Im
spending a little bit too much time
in America. Im a little bit soft,
and I needed that type of a day.
Stadler went into the nal round
with a four-shot lead over
Thongchai and Victor Riu. He even
got a ve-stroke cushion when Riu
found water off the tee of the sec-
ond hole for a double bogey.
Soon, Stadler put himself in
trouble by missing short par putts
on No. 4 and No. 6. He then dou-
ble-bogeyed No. 7 by hooking his
tee shot into the rough before
missing the fairway with his sec-
ond shot.
Another errant tee shot from
Stadler on No. 8 gave Riu a share
of the lead.
It was absolutely miserable,
Stadler said about the weather. We
dont play in that stuff in the
States.
Four players then shared the lead
when McDowell and Jamie
Donaldson made birdies on the
13th and 14th, respectively, to
join Stadler and Riu atop the
leaderboard.
McDowell sank a birdie putt
from more than 20 feet on No. 16
to move three strokes clear. But
Stadler made a strong charge to get
back into contention, tying the
defending champion with a birdie
on that same hole.
After finishing his round,
McDowell was preparing for a
playoff with Stadler, but a huge
roar from the crowd told him the
American had missed his par putt.
Last night, I didnt think I had a
shot, McDowell said. I had a
glass of wine or two last night to
kind of drown my frustration.

Menlos Price claims Canadian
Junior National Championship
Recent Menlo School graduate Maddy
Price took rst place in the 400-meter
dash at the Canadian Junior Track and
Field National Championship Saturday
in St. Therese, Quebec.
Price set a personal record of 53.20 sec-
onds to set a new meet record in the event,
according to Menlo coach Jorge Chen.
Her previous best was
53.42.
With the win, Price
qualied for the IAAF
World Junior
Ch a mp i o n s h i p s
beginning July 22 at
Hamilton Field in
Eugene, Oregon.
Price will compete
for Team Canada. She
is a dual citizen of Canada and the U.S.,
as both her parents both are also dual
citizens are natives of Canada.
Sunday, Price nished fth in the 200,
a disappointing result considering she
entered the event as the No. 1 seed.
Competing at the international level
later this month will be Prices rst foray
into the global ranks. She has previous-
ly competed at the State
Championships, where she took second
place in the 400 earlier this year.
Over 1,800 competitors from around

I always had a split brain between liter-
ature and writing and engineering and sci-
ence, said Miller, who is running the
company out of a home office in
Burlingame for now.
Miller wondered when
the time would be right
for him to pursue writ-
ing. In 2012, he decided
to write Cline, which
took him about nine
months. He spent time at
Draegers Market in San
Mateo and the former
Bean Street on B Street
in San Mateo writing the novel about an
international art thief and femme fatale.
That was a very profound experience for
me, he said. Ive always been an entrepre-
neur. When I went to writing workshops, I
listened to and read how good writing was
the disconnect between the talent seen
and business. That gelled in 2013 and I said
nows the time and I started this compa-
ny.
Through the company, he wants to use
technology to enhance the experience of lit-
erature by exploring technology partner-
ships. When writers, who are from across
the country, sign publishing agreements
with Incanto, the publishing company
acquires all the rights to be able to adapt the
work for TV, movies, other performances
and other platforms. The startup is follow-
ing the Disney model of using the work in
various media.
Its unusual for a publishing company to
treat the work holistically as a package, he
said. Publishing tends to be a pretty con-
servative industry. It has traditions that go
back hundreds of years. Its going to go
through a hard transition, like all media.
More than one person has accused Miller
of being crazy for deciding to start his own
publishing company.
Why are you doing that? I heard a num-
ber of times, he said. From the heart, I
believe there is a juncture part where art and
technology meet. I debated very strongly. I
did my rst pitch on the tech side, but decid-
ed to start from the art side rst, then start
tech partnerships. One year from now I want
to say I found how to marry technology and
literature.
There are two important things in pub-
lishing still the properties you have and
how you promote them, Miller said.
The initial properties we have are good
properties, he said. I like them and think
they should do well. Its about how to get
your books above the noise. Were focusing
a lot of our energy on social media.
There is specic criteria that Miller does
look for in manuscripts submitted. Aside
from well-written stories, Miller likes to
see books that have potential in many
dimensions, such as lm or to be turned into
a series. The other three books coming out
in July are called Duet, Lost in Montreal
and Perverse Wonderland.
The books will be sold in Books, Inc. and
Miller is still soliciting other bookstores
across the United States. E-books should be
released in late fall. Miller will begin pitch-
ing for Series A funding once the books
come out. ANew York native, Miller hopes
to keep the company on the Peninsula if it
goes to the point in which he needs to
acquire ofce space.
I love the Peninsula, he said. I lived in
San Mateo and Burlingame and people are
friendlier here. The weather is better and its
close to the airport. You can zip down to Palo
Alto.
Miller is excitedly awaiting the books.
When your rst four books are about to
happen, its like giving birth, he said.
Its a dramatic moment in the history of the
company.
Each book Incanto publishes is part of a
themed series. The rst series, called the
Discovery Series, features stories that
explore the complex challenges of personal
discovery, growth and survival. The
Journey Series explores personal, spiritual-
ly-inspired and geographical journeys. The
Long Ago and New Again Series engages
readers with modern fairy tales, the romance
of special places and noir dramas in the
form of graphic novels. The Childrens and
Young Adult Series features both current and
retro stories in both picture book and pock-
et novel format.

County for a grade-appropriate talk (gen-
erally K-6). Presentations focus either on
the basic needs of companion animals or
on local wildlife. Our presenters usually
bring their own dog to help present.
Among the basic messages, we teach
kids how to react when approached by an
unfamiliar dog, especially one that is
off-leash. Be still, and act like a tree, we
explain. This led one concerned child to
ask, But what if the dog pees on me?
We can always count on kids to ask the
right questions! Its summertime, so
were not actively promoting this won-
derful resource for schools. But, we have
something even better for parents look-
ing for expert advice beyond the be still
like a tree message. This summer, were
offering Safety Around Dogs Awork-
shop for Children and Adults. The pro-
gram, open to kids age 5 and up, is 11
a.m.-noon Sunday, July 13. The seminar
will be done in a playful, fun atmosphere
inside our new Center for Compassion at
1450 Rollins Road in Burlingame.
Children must be accompanied by an
adult and will receive a certicate for
completing the one-hour program.
Topics to be covered include: safe han-
dling of dogs, dos and donts regarding
dogs; preventing dog bites and acci-
dents: responsible pet ownership. We
will also cover the importance of help-
ing dogs become child-proof and help-
ing kids become dog-proof; basically,
helping kids and dogs live safely with
each other. This is a fantastic resource
for young families whove just adopted
or are considering adding a dog to their
home. The cost is $20 per person, but
family discounts are being offered.
Please call 650/340-7022, ext. 667. We
ask that families to not bring their dog if
they already have one. Our instructor
will have her own dog present and kids
will interact with this dog.

I havent been able to attend many of
the community center meetings, so Ill
be interested to see the presentation,
said Vice Mayor Terry Nagel. Its one of
a number of capital improvement proj-
ects that we need to prioritize for our
city, since we cant do all of them at
once.
City staff, an architecture rm, con-
sultants and community members have
been working together to envision a
new community center in Washington
Park through meetings, surveys, mail-
ing, articles, ads, displays and commu-
nity events. Doing this community out-
reach was the most fun part about the
process, said Parks and Recreation
Director Margaret Glomstad.
Its exciting because its the rst step
to get to the next step, Glomstad said.
So much time has been spent on com-
munity input and keying into what
theyre looking for was the most impor-
tant thing. What we have is a good kind
of consensus trying to keep in mind
the neighbors around the park, as well
as the mature trees.
It has been great work and reects a
great deal of input from the working
group and from outreach and public hear-
ings, said Mayor Michael Brownrigg.
Its great to have a plan in place, and
then of course will come the more dif-
cult question of how well pay for it, he
said. If we had a strong partnership
with the high school district, I do won-
der whether a gym would be valuable or
not.
There are various options for parking
as well. Two possible parking strategies
are being recommended: 63 ground level
spaces and 80 under building spaces, or
65 ground level spaces and 80 spaces a
half level below grade under the tennis
courts.

together for their weddings. Arthur
Murray creates a comfortable environ-
ment for even the newest and shyest of
dancers. Couples can bring in their
choice of music at their ceremonies and
teachers can choreograph steps to a spe-
cic dance. Parties like the one tonight
provide not just a fun and a social gath-
ering, but a real-world experience that
allows dancers to be more comfortable
with their surroundings.
After breaking off into their respec-
tive groups to learn their dances, they
come back to show off what theyve
learned to everyone else. Dancers and
teachers alike provide an enthusiastic
sense of motivation to one another.
Teacher Chris Rhett is a bundle of
energy as he bounces to the thun-
derous music. When teaching class-
es, he emphasizes his approach to
addressing his students.
I really want my classes to be fun and
easy, because its simple; if its not like
that, students arent as likely to come
back, said Rhett. I love teaching new
students because most of the time
theyre just so green and its exciting to
watch them grow. They really come just
to enjoy it.
Rhett also mentioned that having
attainable checkpoints and goals was
important as it provides dancers with
more condence and poise.

oppose the rate increase, the council
may adopt increases that would take
effect in November.
Currently, the average single family
home pays about $638 for sewer rates
each year and that could increase to
$692, Alvarez said. These increases
would help fund bonds and set aside
reserves to cover expenses if revenue
decreases due to conservation efforts,
Alvarez said.
Until 2012, sewer rates only cov-
ered operating expenses, so the coun-
cil voted then to increase rates by
about 19.5 percent through this year,
Alvarez said.
Wed been deferring it for many,
many years. The city never did an ade-
quate job of planning for the future.
Previous rates were just maintaining
the system, but the city hadnt put
away any money to do actual replace-
ment of aging infrastructure, Alvarez
said. Back in 2012, the idea was
lets raise rates to at least have
enough money to take care of what
(infrastructure) we have and stabilize
that. Now were here, two years later
and that backlog is still there. So
these rates would be able to address
that backlog.
If the council approves staffs rec-
ommended 15-year maintenance plan,
the city will use the revenue from
increased rates to take out $9 million
in bonds every year for ve years,
Alvarez said.
Like several other cities including
San Mateo and Foster City, Belmont
must contribute toward a $500 million
Waste Water Treatment Plant upgrade.
The costs associated with those
repairs are already priced separately
from sewer service charges and each
household pays about $250.83 annu-
ally, Alvarez said.
The council will also consider
changing how sewer rates are
explained to residents in their bills. A
portion of the rates goes to the citys
internal costs and the other toward
costs associated with the treatment
plant managed by Silicon Valley
Clean Water, Alvarez said.
What we are doing this year is sep-
arating that out because the charges
from [SVCW] treatment facility are
different from ours. So those will be
shown now separate because we really
dont have control of those costs.
Previously, when those costs went up
it made it look like our costs went up.
So this will give people a better idea
of where that money is going,
Alvarez said.
Although the residential base rate
could appear to go down from $324.68
to $242.29, a $108.36 treatment base
charge will be added, according to a
Public Works Department staff report.
The council will only be voting on
a two-year rate adjustment. However
staff has looked at options for rate
increases over the next five years
and could choose to spread out costs
over 15 years, 20 years or more,
Alvarez said.
Another reason its important for
the council to consider raising rates in
the long term is because revenue could
decrease due to enhanced conservation
efforts in response to the drought,
Alvarez said.
The city was projected to take in
about $7.9 million in rate revenue
from 2013-2014 scal year but based
on customer billing data, the projec-
tion for the 2014-2015 scal year may
decrease to $7.6 million, according to
a staff report.
Other things in these rates is pro-
visions to start coming up with
reserves so if we do have a drought
year we have some money set
aside, Alvarez said. If we do have an
unusual year (because of conservation)
we would be able to use reserves to
cover our operating costs as opposed
to automatically raising rates.
The Belmont City Council public
hearing on sewer rates is 7 p.m.
Tuesday, July 8 at City Hall, One Twin
Pines Lane, Belmont.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEWYORK The Fourth of July went off
like a dud at the box ofce, as the Michael
Bay sequel Transformers: Age of
Extinction and the Melisa McCarthy come-
dy Tammy led the weakest summer holiday
weekend in at least a decade.
The North American box ofce was down a
whopping 44 percent over the July Fourth
weekend last year, when Despicable Me 2
and The Lone Ranger opened.
This weekend sputtered not because of an
oversized bomb like The Lone Ranger, but
because of numerous factors, including that
Hollywood simply didnt aim for big re-
works this year. The holdover Transformers
led all lms with an estimated $36.4 million,
while Tammy had a below expectations
Friday-to-Sunday haul of $21.2 million.
This ranks as one of the lowest Fourth of
Julys ever, said Paul Dergarabedian, senior
media analyst for box-office tracker
Rentrak. We always think of Fourth of July
being a big weekend. This year, we just
have to lick our wounds and look forward to
Planet of the Apes and some other lms to
get us back on track.
Paramounts Transformers, the fourth in
the series, opened the weekend prior to the
years biggest debut with $100 million. The
movie, with a rebooted cast led by Mark
Wahlberg, dropped considerably (63 percent)
in its second week of release despite relative-
ly little competition.
Overseas, Age of Extinction is perform-
ing exceptionally well. It added $95.8 mil-
lion from 37 territories for a two-week
worldwide gross of $575.6 million. Its set
to soon become the highest grossing lm
ever in China, with already more than $200
million in box ofce sales. Transformers
4 was partially shot in China, features local
star Li Bingbing and premiered at the
Shanghai Film Festival.
New Lines R-rated, Midwest road trip romp
Tammy boasts one of the most bankable
stars in movies McCarthy but is a small-
er, homespun movie made for just $20 million
and directed by McCarthys husband, Ben
Falcone. Despite being savaged by critics,
the Warner Bros. release made $32.9 million
in ve days since opening Wednesday.
Why the weekend was so weak in terms of
competition is hard to tell, said Dan
Fellman, head of domestic distribution for
Warner Bros., who said he was very pleased
with the performance of Tammy. Its just
the way things fell.
The other new wide release was the horror
ick Deliver Us From Evil, which had no
blockbuster ambitions. The Sony Screen
Gems release, starring Eric Bana, opened in
third with $9.5 million. Also debuting was
Relativity Medias animated release Earth to
Echo, which took in $8.3 million.
Such movies are a far cry from the usual
Independence Day fare, which has in the past
included the opening weekends of Spider-
Man 2, War of the Worlds, two earlier
Transformers releases and, naturally,
Independence Day.
But this years July Fourth fell on Friday, an
already lucrative movie-going day, and thus did
little to add incentive for blockbusters. The
World Cup, too, may have scared off some big
releases. Next week, Foxs Dawn of the Planet
of the Apes is expected to be one of the sum-
mers biggest hits.
The unusual holiday lull meant that for
the first time this summer, a movie
(Transformers: Age of Extinction) held
the top spot at the box ofce for two weeks
in a row.
Estimated ticket sales for Friday through
Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, accord-
ing to Rentrak. Where available, latest inter-
national numbers are also included. Final
domestic gures will be released on Monday.
1. Transformers: Age Of Extinction,
$36.4 million ($95.8 million international).
2. Tammy, $21.2 million ($2.5 million
international).
3. Deliver Us From Evil, $9.5 million
($2.5 million international).
4. 22 Jump Street, $9.4 million ($10
million international).
5. How to Train Your Dragon 2, $8.8 mil-
lion ($33.5 million international).
6. Earth to Echo, $8.3 million.
7. Malecent, $6.1 million ($17.3 mil-
lion international).
8. Jersey Boys, $5.1 million ($2.7 mil-
lion international).
9. Think Like a Man Too, $4.9 million.
10. Edge of Tomorrow, $3.6 million
($8.4 million international).

WASHINGTON Passengers at
some overseas airports that offer
U.S.-bound ights will be required
to power on their electronic
devices in order to board their
ights, the Transportation Security
Administration said Sunday.
The TSAsaid it is requiring some
overseas airports to have passen-
gers turn on devices such as cell-
phones before boarding. It says
devices that wont power up wont
be allowed on planes, and those
travelers may have to undergo
additional screening.
As the traveling public knows,
all electronic devices are screened
by security ofcers, the TSA said
in the release announcing the new
steps.
American intelligence ofcials
have been concerned about new al-
Qaida efforts to produce a bomb
that would go undetected through
airport security. There is no indica-
tion that such a bomb has been cre-
ated or that theres a specic threat
to the U.S.
Homeland Security Secretary Jeh
Johnson recently ordered the TSA
to call for extra security measures
at some international airports with
direct ights to the United States.
TSA does not conduct screening
abroad, but has the ability to set
screening criteria and processes
for ights ying to the U.S. from
abroad, according to a Department
of Homeland Security ofcial, who
was not allowed to discuss the
changes publicly and spoke on
condition of anonymity.
During an interview aired Sunday
on NBCS Meet The Press,
Johnson declined to speculate on
whether new security procedures
called for overseas will be required
at domestic airports in the future
We continue to evaluate
things, he said. The screening we
have right domestically from one
domestic airport to another is pret-
ty robust as the American traveling
public knows. In this instance we
felt that it was important to crank it
up some at the last point of depar-
ture airports and well continually
evaluate the situation.
TSA will not disclose which air-
ports will be conducting the addi-
tional screening, although it will be
at some airports with direct ights
to the U.S. Industry data show that
more than 250 foreign airports offer
nonstop service to the U.S.
Aviation remains an attractive
target to global terrorists, who are
consistently looking for ways to
circumvent aviation security meas-
ures, the DHS ofcial said. Some
details on specic enhancements
and locations are sensitive because
U.S. ofcials do not want to give
information to those who would
do us harm, the ofcial said.
American intelligence ofcials
said earlier this week that they
have picked up indications that
bomb makers from Yemen-based
al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula
have traveled to Syria to link up
with the al-Qaida afliate there.
Al-Qaida in the Arabian
Peninsula long has been xated on
bringing down airplanes with hid-
den explosives. It was behind
failed and thwarted plots involv-
ing suicide bombers with explo-
sives designed to be hidden inside
underwear and explosives secreted
inside printer cartridges shipped
on cargo planes.
TSA: Some on U.S.-bound flights must turn on phones
