MEXICALI, Mexico A U.S.
effort to discourage immigrants
repeated attempts to enter the
country illegally by dropping
them back in Mexico hundreds of
miles away from where they were
caught has been sharply scaled
back after producing relatively
modest gains.
U.S. authorities insist the Alien
Transfer Exit Program has con-
tributed to overall achievements
in border security and say the cut-
backs reflected a need to shift
resources to deal with Central
Americans pouring into Texas.
The govern-
ment has own
or bused hun-
dreds of thou-
sands of
Mexican men to
faraway border
cities since
February 2008, believing they
would give up after being separat-
ed from their smugglers.
But government statistics and
interviews with migrants in
Mexican shelters suggest the dis-
location is a relatively ineffective
deterrent, especially for immi-

In an effort to get with the
times, the Sequoia Union High
School District will be imple-
menting Google Apps for
Education, netting it $15,000 in
savings a year switching off of its
old email system.
Students, teachers and adminis-
trative staff will now have access
to Google
C a l e n d a r ,
Google Docs
and Google
Sites. In addi-
tion, all stu-
dents have
Gmail accounts
to allow for col-
laborative shar-
ing using
Google Apps for Education. The
transition over will happen in late
July and will likely go live Aug. 1.
These accounts will be used for
school-related projects inside and
outside of the classroom with the
signed permission of their parents
or guardians. Additionally, the stu-
dents may use their email address-
es to sign up for collaborative
Internet tools.
It was time for an update on our
internal email services its pret-
ty old stuff weve been using, said
school board Trustee Alan Sarver.
We need to bring the district for-
ward into current technology. A
key priority is modernization.
With a switch to the new
Common Core Standards, there
will be more emphasis on technol-
ogy in the classroom, along with
more group projects. Additionally,
adding a director of instructional
technology was one of the key
moves the district made after the
Great Recession, Sarver said.
Robert Fishtrom took over this
role in July 2013. The old email
system cost the district $15,000
per year and with the transition,
the district is paying $6,000 for
software migration that copies
emails and calendar items over.
The current system were on is

San Mateo. The Hillsborough private school is expanding from pre-K-8 to high school at the new campus.

Construction is well underway at
The Nueva School, which will be
opening the doors to its new cam-
pus at Bay Meadows in September
becoming part of one of the
largest transportation-oriented
developments in the state.
The private Hillsborough pre-
kindergarten to eighth-grade
school saw Bay Meadows in San
Mateo as the perfect opportunity
for it to expand into a high school
that teaches and models sustain-
ability, said Terry Lee, associate
head of school.
We really feel like we hit the
jackpot both in terms of nding a
city, San Mateo, that is so vision-
ary in terms of this idea of transit-
oriented development in such a
progressive part of the Bay Area
so theres this really wonderful
alignment between the school, the
master developer [of Bay
Meadows] and the city of San
Mateo, Lee said.
As part of Phase II for the old
race track off of Highway 101 in
San Mateo, Nueva began construc-
tion in early 2013 and its campus
is compacted into just 2.7 acres,
said Darcy Forsell, principal plan-
ner with the citys Planning
Division.
The campus has a relatively
small footprint with its buildings
totaling just 135,000 square feet
with a 39,300-square-foot-below-
ground-parking garage, Forsell
said. Construction of the main
building is currently ongoing but
will be ready by the time the
school year starts, Forsell said.
Nueva set for fall opening
High school campus at Bay Meadows to be transit-oriented, sustainable

Three years after its last try z-
zled, Daly City is renewing the
fight to regulate where payday
lending business can locate in the
city as a way of preventing an
overconcentration of them partic-
ularly in lower income areas.
The city cant legally regulate
the loans themselves such as cap-
ping the annual percentage rate
but is allowed to limit them to cer-
tain zoning
areas and require
a certain amount
of distance
between each
business to
keep a glut from
popping up in
one spot.
On Monday
night, the City
Council will consider both based
on an unanimous Planning
Daly City tries once more
to regulate payday lending

After 20 years, the San Mateo County
Sheriffs Ofce is still running its annual
S.T.A.R. Camp, aimed at bringing underpriv-
ileged youth outdoors while teaching them
about gang prevention, Internet safety and
other issues.
S.T.A.R. Camp was inspired by an Indiana
State Police Respect for Law camp. The rst
camp was held in 1994 at the Boy Scout
Cutter Scout Reservation. It hosted 60 fth-
graders from the unincorporated areas of San
Mateo County, Woodside and East Palo Alto
and only involved Drug Abuse Resistance
Education, or D.A.R.E., students during its
rst summer session. This summer, it had
almost 150 campers.
Combining Boy Scout traditional camp
activities with law enforcement topics and
programs, groups are led by deputy sheriffs to
show the children from our communities that
we are people too, said San Mateo County
sheriffs Deputy Rebecca Rosenblatt. We
present a positive image so the children could
connect with people in law enforcement and
to know the person behind the badge.
Today, Sheriffs Office personnel and
campers trek to YMCACamp Loma Mar for a
week-long camping trip. This trip provides
the children an opportunity to experience the
outdoors and enjoy a brief respite from the
stress of inner city life with activities like
ziplining and performing on stage. Programs
in the camp include gang and drug awareness,
Hug-A-Tree, the Explorer Program and cyber
safety.
Campers, ranging from fth- to eighth-
grade, come from a wide variety of socioeco-
nomic backgrounds and are recruited from the
middle schools in the unincorporated areas
and now the cities of San Carlos, Half Moon
Bay and Millbrae. Families pay a token fee
for the camp. The camp is underwritten by
donations from individuals, companies and
foundations to the Sheriffs Youth Programs
Fund as well as through proceeds of the North
Fair Oaks Community Festival.
Initially, law enforcement explorers were
used as youth staff, but this has been expand-
ed to former campers and other high school
leaders. Sheriffs Ofce staff get to be adult
leaders, including Correctional Officer
Patrick Lucy, who is also a trustee on the
South San Francisco Unied School District
board. He has been with the camp for about
13 years.
You literally you end up making new
friends with these kids, he said. Its a very
memorable experience. They get to be
themselves.
Lucy keeps in touch with past campers, he
added.
The camp occurs every summer. For more
information on S.T.A.R. Camp and other
Sheriffs Ofce community activities, go to

punching a Burlingame priest who asked him
to leave the grounds of St. Catherine of Siena
Catholic Church because he was smoking will

David Donald Lewis, 43, has pleaded not
guilty to the charges but was held to answer on

Oakland police headquarters
evacuated due to odor
OAKLAND Oakland police ofcials say
its downtown headquarters is closed to the
public after an evacuation due to a suspicious
odor.
Ofcer Frank Bonifacio, a police
spokesman, says the nine-story building was
briey evacuated after an employee thought
they smelled gas Friday morning. An alarm
was activated and about 200 employees quick-
ly left the building.
The California Highway Patrol briey
closed nearby streets and parts of Interstate
880 were shut down for a short period as well.
Bonifacio says after a oor-by-oor evalua-
tion, re and gas ofcials determined that the
foul odor came from the buildings heating and
air conditioning system which is being
repaired.
Employees were later given the all-clear to
go back inside the building around 2 p.m., but
it will remain closed to the public until further
notice.
Man set re at California airport
OAKLAND Aman is in custody on sus-
picion of arson after authorities say he set
re to cardboard inside a baggage claim area
at a San Francisco Bay Area airport.
The fire around 3:30 a.m. Friday at
Oakland International Airport charred a wall
but otherwise caused no damage. Airport
spokesman Brian Kidd says there were no
passengers in the area at the time, and air-
port services were not affected.
The fire was put out before fire crews
showed up.
Kidd says the man, who was in his 60s,
was not a passenger. It was unclear what led
him to start the re.
Alameda County Sheriffs officials
described him as a transient and told the
Contra Costa Times he tried to leave on a
bus before he was detained.
California court claries
three strikes law in ruling
SAN FRANCISCO The California Supreme
Court ruled that two felony convictions stem-
ming from a single act cannot be counted as sep-
arate strikes under the states three strikes sen-
tencing law.
The 1994 law requires the doubling of a sen-
tence if a defendant has a prior qualifying felony
conviction, and that the person be given a life
term if there are two such convictions.
The unanimous ruling on Thursday came in
the case of Darlene Vargas, who was sentenced
to 25-years to life for burglary on the basis of
two prior convictions.
The high court said those convictions for rob-
bery and carjacking stemmed from the same act
taking a car by force and should not count
as two separate strikes and prompt a tougher
sentence.

LOS ANGELES The president of
the nations second-largest teachers
union said Friday that President
Barack Obamas education chief has
turned his back on the concerns of
educators and parents, but she
stopped short of calling for his
ouster.
Teachers unions have been clashing
with the Obama administration over
its support for charter schools and its
push to use student test scores as part
of teacher evaluations, a relationship
that further frayed after Education
Secretary Arne Duncan spoke in sup-
port of a California judges ruling last
month that struck down tenure and
other job protections for the states
public school teachers.
We need a secretary of education
who walks our walk, and ghts our
ght for the tools and resources we
need to help children. And we are
deeply disappointed that this
Department of Education has not
lived up to that standard, American
Federation of Teachers President
Randi Weingarten said in a speech at a
union convention in Los Angeles.
She said the judges decision in the
California case presupposes that for
kids to win, teachers have to lose.
Nothing could be further from the
truth. She added that Duncan needs to
listen to parents and teachers rather
than dismissing their concerns.
Education Department spokes-
woman Dorie Nolt said in an email
that the transformation that educa-
tors and policymakers are leading to
prepare all students for college and
careers is incredibly difcult, and too
often the adults ght about how to
best help the kids.
Secretary Duncan has said before
that he doesnt get involved in union
politics, Nolt said. He is hopeful
that after AFT wraps up their meeting,
he and the organization can continue
to work together to prepare all stu-
dents for college, careers and life.
Earlier this month, delegates of the
largest teachers union the National
Education Association called for
Duncan to quit. That action under-
scored the long-standing tension
between the administration and teach-
ers unions, which historically are
strong Democratic allies.
The landmark California ruling by
Los Angeles County Superior Court
Judge Rolf Treu could inuence the
debate over tenure across the country.
Siding with the nine students who
brought a lawsuit, he ruled that
Californias laws on hiring and ring
in schools have resulted in a signi-
cant number of grossly ineffective
teachers currently active in California
classrooms. He agreed, too, that a
disproportionate number of these
teachers are in schools that have
mostly minority and low-income stu-
dents.
The judge stayed the ruling pending
appeals. The case involves 6 million
students from kindergarten through
12th grade.

SAN FRANCISCO The former head of
the nations largest pension fund admitted
Friday that he took bribes, including hun-
dreds of thousands of dollars stuffed in paper
bags and a shoe box, and helped an associ-
ate collect millions in a fraudulent invest-
ment scheme.
Fred Buenrostro Jr. pleaded guilty in San
Francisco federal court to fraud and bribery
charges stemming from his time as chief
executive of the California Public
Employees Retirement System from 2002
to 2008.
In his plea agreement, Buenrostro said
that in exchange for his help Alfred
Villalobos, a former CalPERS board mem-
ber, took him on a trip around the world,
gave him casino chips and paid for his wed-
ding in Lake Tahoe, California.
Villalobos denied the allegations through
his attorney Friday.
Buenrostros guilty plea arises from a
yearslong investigation into the role of
money-management rm
middlemen, called place-
ment agents, in helping
clients win investment
business from a
California pension sys-
tem that controls $300
billion.
CalPERS said the inves-
tigation has prompted it
to take aggressive steps
to implement policies
and reforms that strengthen accountability
and ensure full transparency.
Buenrostro said in his plea that he started
taking bribes in 2005 to use his inuence
with CalPERS to make investment deci-
sions to help Villalobos clients. He also
said he gave Villalobos, a CalPERS board
member in the mid-90s, access to conden-
tial investment information.
The 64-year-old former executive said he
forged letters allowing rms connected with
Villalobos to collect a $14 million commis-
sions on $3 billion pension fund invest-
ments. He said he started writing bogus
investor disclosure letters after CalPERS
legal and investment ofcials declined to
authorize them.
Further, Buenrostro said after he left
CalPERS and went to work for Villalobos
that he accepted $50,000 to lie to federal
investigators in 2010 about their relation-
ship.
Buenrostro faces ve years in prison and a
$250,000 fine when he is sentenced in
January. In exchange for a lesser sentence,
Buenrostro has agreed to cooperate with the
continuing investigation of Villalobos,
said Buenrostro lawyer William Portonova.
He got tired of lying, Portonova said.
Hes ready to tell the truth.
Villalobos has pleaded not guilty to fraud
charges and other related counts. His attor-
ney, Bruce Funk, said his client denies the
claims contained in Buenrostros plea agree-
ment. If hes truthful, there is nothing he
can say that will hurt Mr. Villalobos, Funk
said.
Buenrostro and Villalobos, 70, also face
two government lawsuits.
The state attorney general sued in 2010,
saying Buenrostro and Villalobos, along
with other former pension board and staff
members, participated in kickback scheme.
At that time, the attorney general
obtained a court order freezing assets of
Villalobos and his company in an attempt to
recover more than $40 million in commis-
sions. Villalobos led for bankruptcy later
in 2010. His assets included 20 bank
accounts, two Bentleys, two BMWs, a
Hummer, art worth more than $2.7 million
and 14 properties in California, Nevada and
Hawaii. None of Buenrostros assets were
seized.
State attorney general spokesman Nick
Pacilio said a trial is scheduled for Sept. 8 in
San Francisco Superior Court.
The Securities and Exchange Commission
has also led a lawsuit in 2012, which is
still pending.
In a related sanction, the states campaign
watchdog, the Fair Political Practices
Commission, fined other executives and
investment managers in 2011 for failing to
report gifts that included food, wine and
baseball and Rose Bowl tickets.

Fire in Californias
Sequoia forest spreading fast
BAKERSFIELD Firefighters aggres-
sively attacked a California wildre that
spread quickly after starting Friday after-
noon in a remote part of the Sequoia
National Forest, ofcials said.
The forest where the re started is south of
and separate from the Sequoia National Park
east of Fresno, which is famous for its giant
Sequoia trees.
The re broke out around 2 p.m., and with-
in a couple of hours it had burned more than
1 square mile of the Kiavah Wilderness area,
U.S. Forest Service spokeswoman Cindy
Thill said. The blaze east of Lake Isabella,
50 miles northeast of Bakerseld, burned
through shrubs and skipped across the tree-
tops in some places, she said.
No homes were evacuated or in danger
from the so-called Nicholls Fire, Thill said,
but reghters hit it with air tankers and
helicopters, and hundreds of firefighters
were called in to help slow it on the ground.
No roads cross through that part of the
forest, making it accessible only by foot
and air, Thill said, and the cause of the re
was not immediately known.
Fireghters from Kern County, the U.S.
Bureau of Land Management and the U.S.
Forest Service were converging on the
blaze, and a command team had been called
in to help manage the re, Thill said.
Drought shuts restrooms
at some California parks
SACRAMENTO Californias drought
is beginning to dry up water supplies at
state parks, including some of the systems
most popular sites.
Restrooms with ush toilets have been
closed at D.L. Bliss State Park at Lake
Tahoe, the Hearst Castle Visitors Center
and Hearst San Simeon State Park. Theyve
been replaced with portable toilets instead.
Meanwhile showers at D.L. Bliss, San
Simeon and Portola Redwoods State Park
have been shut down.
Each park relies on a local water supply,
and in some cases that is a creek or spring.
D.L. Bliss, which sees more than 12,000
campers a year, relies on a spring that
dropped just before the July Fourth week-
end.
District Superintendent Marilyn Linkem
said Friday that the remaining supply must
be preserved for potable water at campsites
and for reghting.
Former councilmember
sentenced in Bell scandal
LOS ANGELES A former Bell city
councilman has been sentenced to a year in
jail for corruption and ordered to perform
1,000 hours of community service.
George Mirabal was sentenced Friday for
misappropriating public funds from the Los
Angeles suburb. He also must pay the city
$242,000.
At the hearing, Mirabal apologized to the
city and its residents. Outside court, Mirabal
called his sentence fair.
Mirabal is the rst of ve former council
members to be sentenced for nearly bank-
rupting the small working-class town by
receiving inated pay and perks.
Prosecutors say Mirabals salary rose
from $434 a month when he was city clerk
to $100,000 a year on the council, where he
served for 17 years.
Robert Rizzo, mastermind of the pay
scheme, is serving 12 years in state prison.
County worker suspected
of helping inmate escape
MERCED Ofcials in Merced County
say a Central California man who works for
the public defenders ofce helped an inmate
escape from custody, landing him in jail
with criminal charges of his own.
Sheriffs Deputy Delray Shelton said the
county worker, 29-year-old Steven
Haywood, was driving three inmates from a
drug treatment program in San Francisco to
the Merced jail on Wednesday and let the 31-
year-old inmate out.
Shelton tells the Merced Sun-Star that
Haywood stopped the transport van in
Atwater for no clear reason and only later
told jail staff what had happened. The
inmate was picked up separately.

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)
588-5116 and we will be happy to guide you
in a fair and helpful manner. For more info

Who Or What Is Gladstone And
Why This Is Important
advertisement
By Erica Werner
WASHINGTON A key Republican said
Friday that President Barack Obamas multi-
billion-dollar emergency request for the bor-
der is too big to get through the House, as a
growing number of Democrats rejected poli-
cy changes Republicans are demanding as
their price for approving any money.
The developments indicated that Obama
faces an uphill climb as he pushes Congress
to approve $3.7 billion to deal with tens of
thousands of unaccompanied kids whove
been arriving at the U.S.-Mexico border from
poor and increasingly violent Central
American nations. And they suggested that
even as the children keep coming, any nal
resolution is likely weeks away on Capitol
Hill.
As House members gathered Friday morn-
ing to nish up legislative business for the
week, Rep. Hal Rogers of Kentucky, chair-
man of the Appropriations Committee,
which controls spending, told reporters:
Its too much money. We dont need it.
Rogers previously had sounded open to the
spending request for more immigration
judges, detention facilities, State
Department programs and other items. He
said his committee would look at the parts of
Obamas request that
would go for immediate
needs, but that others
could be handled through
Congress regular spend-
ing bills though no
nal action is likely on
those until after the
November midterm elec-
tions.
And asked whether the
House would approve the spending package
as-is, Rogers said no.
White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest
responded by saying that were open to
working with Democrats and Republicans in
Congress to get this done.
The president has moved quickly to be
very clear about what specically needs to be
funded, Earnest said. And we would like to
see Republicans back up their rhetoric with
the kind of urgent action that this situation
merits.
Rogers spoke shortly after the
Congressional Hispanic Caucus convened a
news conference to denounce efforts to attach
legal changes to the spending measure that
would result in returning the children home
more quickly to El Salvador, Honduras and
Guatemala. Those countries account for most
of the more than 57,000 unaccompanied kids
whove arrived since
October.
Republicans are
demanding such changes,
and White House ofcials
also have indicated sup-
port, while the House and
Senate Democratic leaders
left the door open to them
this week.
But key Senate
Democrats are opposed, and members of the
all-Democratic Hispanic Caucus added their
strong objections Friday that sending the
children home quickly could put them at risk.
I dont know of a man or a woman in the
Congressional Hispanic Caucus who is
going to vote to undermine the rights of
these children, said Rep. Luis Gutierrez, D-
Ill. It would be unconscionable.
Gutierrez said the lawmakers would make
that same case directly to Obama in a meeting
next week.
Meanwhile Homeland Security Secretary
Jeh Johnson visited a detention facility in
Artesia, New Mexico, where he said: Our
message to those who come illegally is we
will send you back.
Thats something that may not happen for
years, if ever, under current circumstances,
which is at the heart of the debate over
changing U.S. policy.
At issue is a 2008 law aimed at helping vic-
tims of human trafcking, which appears to
be contributing to the current crisis by ensur-
ing court hearings for the children now arriv-
ing from Central America. In practice, that
often allows them to stay in this country for
years as their cases wend their way through
the badly backlogged immigration court sys-
tem, and oftentimes they never show up for
their court dates.
Obama administration ofcials along with
Republican lawmakers want to change the
law so that Central American children can be
treated the same way as Mexican minors,
who can be turned around quickly by Border
Patrol agents.
If you want to stop the problem, treat the
children humanely and send them back. I
guarantee you it will work, Senate Minority
Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said Friday
in a speech in Louisville.
Democrats and advocacy groups say such a
change would put the kids in jeopardy.
We will oppose this link even if it means
the funding bill goes down, said Kevin
Appleby, director of migration and refugee
policy for the U.S. Conference of Catholic
Bishops. If the changes go through, Theyll
be sent back to their persecutors with no help
whatsoever, and possibly to their deaths.
House chairman: $3.7B border request too much
Anthrax scare reveals
more CDC lab safety problems
NEWYORK Citing an anthrax scare and
other safety problems, the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention on Friday said it shut
down two research labs and stopped shipping
highly dangerous germs to other labs.
An incident at one of the closed Atlanta labs
could have accidentally exposed workers in
three labs to anthrax last month. A second,
previously undisclosed problem earlier this
year involved deadly bird u.
The CDC also released a report that detailed
three other incidents in the past decade in
which mistakes or other problems caused
potentially dangerous germs to be sent out.
No lab worker or member of the public was
sickened in any of the incidents, the CDC
said.
The federal agency operates some of the
worlds most advanced and most secure labora-
tories for the handling of deadly germs, and
has enjoyed a reputation as a role model for
that kind of work. During a press conference
Friday, CDC director Dr. Tom Frieden said he
was upset by the carelessness.
Commanders: Benghazi rescue
hampered by lack of information
WASHINGTON Two of the four U.S. deaths
in Benghazi might have been prevented, mili-
tary leaders say, if commanders had known more
about the intensity of the sporadic gunre
directed at the CIAfacility where Americans had
taken refuge and had pressed to get a rescue team
there faster.
Senior military leaders have told Congress in
closed-door testimony that after the rst attack
on the main U.S. diplomatic compound on
Sept. 11, 2012, they thought the ghting had
subsided and the Americans who had ed to the
CIAbase about a mile away were safe. In fact,
they were facing intermittent small arms re and
rocket-propelled grenades around midnight and
had returned re. Then the attackers dispersed.
In hindsight, retired Gen. Carter Ham, then
head of the U.S. military command in Africa,
said he would have pressed Libyan contacts in
the defense ministry and other ofcials to help
speed up the evacuation of Americans from
Benghazi.

Hal Rogers Barack Obama
OPINION 9
Suggested payment
for college athletes
Editor,
The following proposal is an at-
tempt to solve the question of
paying college athletes. The pay
would apply to college football
Division I teams only. To qualify for
compensation, a varsity football
player must complete a four-year pro-
gram and must graduate with a degree.
On that basis, payment would include
a six-month season, starting with Au-
gust through January. Compensation
would include $2,000 per month for a
six-month season, totaling $12,000.
Completion of four years would total
$48, 000. The payment is in the form
of an insurance policy, payable at the
completion of four seasons. Atotal
of $48,000 insurance policy would
start at graduation time. The policy
must remain in force for 20 years. At
that time, the policy can be cashed
out. By this time, the cash can be
used for offset college expenses.
This compensation offer would only
apply to the football program. Other
sports would apply in the future,
based upon the success of this foot-
ball program. Of course, this plan
would be subject to fine-tuning. Also,
the legality of this program should
be established.

Government and
electric vehicles
Editor,
I read with interest the article Bay
Area governments make big electric-
vehicle purchase in the July 9
edition of the Daily Journal.
I am neither for nor against elec-
tric cars. But the numbers in the
article make the governments look
foolish for this purchase. They are
purchasing 90 EVs for $5 million.
That works out to $55,555 per car.
The Nissan Leaf costs around $34K
and the Ford Focus around $37K.
Lets round up to $40K each thats
still only $3.6 million for 90 cars. I
think I just saved the government
over $1.4 million if they buy these at
a car dealership.
Then there is the $500,000 in fuel
costs savings. Yes, no gas. But there
still is the well-to-wheel cost for the
electricity. Somebody pays for the
electric bill. Some not-so-green
process generates the electricity. But
Ill save that discussion for another
day.
Looking on KBB.com, the Focus
costs around 51 cents per mile over
five years for fuel, maintenance and
purchase price, less resale price. A
standard (stripped) Honda Accord LX
costs only 47 cents per mile. At a net
loss of four cents per mile per car
over a five-year period, Im hard-
pressed to see where that
half-a-million dollar savings is. In
fact, at 12,000 miles/year, a fleet of
Accords saves $216,000 over the
EVs. Im now up to over $1.6 million
in savings for the government by
simply buying 90 Accords off the lot
instead of whatever deal they got
on the EVs.
The government has my permission
to buy Accords from car dealers and
give the $1.6 million to teachers so
we are all better at using math and
recognizing tomfoolery.

Letters to the editor
Orange County Register
H
ow the mighty have fallen.
In a recent poll by
Quinnipiac University, a plu-
rality of voters declared President
Obama the worst man to hold the
highest ofce in the land since World
War II.
Thats a decidedly ignominious dis-
tinction considering the failings -
real or perceived - of several of the
presidents that preceded Obama.
George W. Bush steered the nation
into two separate wars, producing
nearly 5,300 U.S. combat deaths in
Afghanistan and Iraq and costing
American taxpayers more than $4 tril-
lion.
Bill Clinton disgraced himself by
having an adulterous affair with a
White House intern young enough to
be his daughter, which contributed to
his dishonor of being the second
president in U.S. history to be
impeached.
Jimmy Carter is remembered for his
impotence in securing the release of
52 American diplomats and others
held hostage 444 days by Ayatollah
Khomeini in Iran, and for presiding
over the worst economy since the
Great Depression.
Richard Nixon was brought down
by the Watergate scandal, becoming
the only president to resign from
ofce.
Yet none of those former presidents
is held in as low esteem as the current
occupant of the Oval Ofce.
Indeed, 53 percent of those sur-
veyed disapprove of Obamas job per-
formance; 54 percent say his adminis-
tration is incompetent in running the
government, and a 45 percent plurali-
ty said the county would be better off
if Mitt Romney was in the White
House.
So what explains the precipitous
decline in the presidents standing?
Well, we think it attributable in no
small part to Obamas almost com-
plete lack of statesmanship.
Yes, we understand the presidents
frustration that his second-term agen-
da hasnt gotten much traction on
Capitol Hill, where the House is in
the hands of Republicans.
But its almost as if Obama expected
the House GOP to rubber-stamp his
proposals as House Democrats during
2009-10, when they passed the so-
called American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act and so-called
Patient Protection and Affordable Care
Act with next to no Republican sup-
port.
Now Obama nds he needs he needs
the support of at least some members
of the loyal opposition to get legisla-
tion passed like immigration
reform. But the president has not bar-
gained with House Republican lead-
ers.
Instead, he has tried to bend House
Republicans to his will by demagogu-
ing those who differ with him on such
policies as climate change as he
did during his politicized UC Irvine
commencement speech and by
threatening to bypass the duly elected
representatives of more than half the
electorate by issuing executive orders
and directives.
Bush, Cinton, Carter, Nixon and
other of Obamas predecessors may
have left some presidential traits to
be desired. But, arguably, none were
less statesmanlike than the nations
current chief executive.
Obamas deficit in statesmanship
Water wars
I
n-N-Out and Chipotle have just raised their prices due
in part to the California drought. Thats right; our
lack of rain is making Double-Doubles and Burrito
Bowls more expensive. It just got real, didnt it?
The fact is, our water crisis has been building for a long
time. Most of the states water storage and transportation
system was built in the 1950s and 60s, back when the
population was around 16 million. Now the state has over
37 million residents and climbing. Outdated infrastructure
means that our water resources are not managed correctly
or delivered efciently.
Fundamentally, there simply
isnt enough water for our cur-
rent and future uses. Each drop
allocated to one use means that
other users are shut out, no mat-
ter how important water is to
them, our economy or to our
ecology.
There are no good choices in
our water wars. Use water for
agriculture and salmon runs suf-
fer. Direct water to wildlife
refuges and unemployment and
poverty increases in the Central
Valley. Water your lawn and
endangered Delta smelt are quickly turned into fertilizer by
the water pumps in Tracy.
Local governments too must make hard choices, as
Foster City Vice Mayor Art Kiesel pointed out in a recent
op-ed. Our lack of water directly affects local decisions,
from replacing playing elds with plastic grass to
restricting the kinds of trees residents can plant.
Even pot growers are involved. According to CNBC, pot
growers are sucking up water at an alarming rate. The
Department of Fish and Wildlife says that their unrestricted
water use will lead to, streams going dry, streams that har-
bor endangered sh species like salmon (and) steelhead.
Agriculture of all kinds uses the most water in
California, some 80 percent. That allows California to
grow almost half of our nations fruit and vegetables. We
also grow 100 percent of 14 specialty crops including all
of our nations almonds, dates, gs, olives, walnuts and
raisins. Yet this year, due to lack of water storage, about 2
million acres in the Central Valley will receive no water at
all from the State Department of Water Resources or the
federal Bureau of Reclamation.
That means higher prices for food, but it also means mis-
ery for tens of thousands of Latino farmworkers and those
who depend on them and their income. Unemployment in
Fresno County is running almost double the national aver-
age, while poverty dramatically increases. Three of the ve
most impoverished metropolitan areas of the country are
found in the Central Valley and many of the counties there
have poverty rates over 20 percent.
The crisis has nally awakened the political class, but
squabbling among various interests has made developing
a water bond a difcult task. Some want only storage and
transportation projects included, while others demand
environmental projects and dubious measures as their
price for acceptance.
However, even former foes of water projects recognize
that not building additional water infrastructure since the
1960s was a fundamental mistake. U.S. Sen. Dianne
Feinstein, D-Calif., told the Associated Press that popula-
tion growth comes anyway but then you dont have
enough water. Of building new dams, she says, this is a
different day now and that weve got to measure up to it.
As U.S. Rep. Jim Costa, D-Fresno, puts it, You cannot
recycle in enough quantities to irrigate half of the nations
fruits and vegetables. Its really that simple.
Some wing-nut enviros claim that even strict conserva-
tion measures or drinking recycled water will solve all of
our problems. These are some of the same people who two
years ago were voting to drain San Franciscos Hetch
Hetchy Reservoir where we get most of our countys
water. Clearly, their idea of sound water policy is to sim-
ply not use any, even for drinking, bathing or eating.
The rest of us know that while additional conservation
and efcient use is important, we need an all of the
above strategy to expand our storage and distribution
capabilities. Thats why getting special interests to come
together for the common good in a state water bond is so
important.
In August, the state Legislature will be back in session
and will be hashing out the details of a water bond for the
November ballot. Call state Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo,
and Assemblyman Kevin Mullin, D-South San Francisco,
and tell them to work on behalf of the people for com-
mon-sense solutions. Because if extremist enviros have
their way, water will stay scarce and more than your
lunchtime Double-Double will increase in price.

NEWYORK U.S. stocks stabilized
on Friday and ended with a small gain,
but it wasnt enough to prevent the mar-
kets biggest weekly drop since April.
Investors became more cautious this
week as corporate earnings for the
April-June period began trickling in.
Worrisome news about a Portuguese
bank also revived fears of another
European debt crisis. That weighed on
stocks, which had closed out the previ-
ous week at record highs.
Investors are now mulling whether
the stocks market valuations are justi-
ed by the outlook for company earn-
ings, or whether they have risen too far,
too fast.
As investors try to make sense of the
market, we could be in a holding pat-
tern, said Kristina Hooper, US
Investment Strategist at Allianz Global
Investors.
The Standard & Poors 500 rose 2.89
points, or 0.2 percent, to 1,967.57 on
Friday. The weekly decline of 0.9 per-
cent was the biggest since April 11.
The Dow Jones industrial average
climbed 28.74 points, or 0.2 percent,
to 16,943.81. The Nasdaq composite
rose 19.29 points, or 0.4 percent, to
4,415.49.
On Friday, investors absorbed corpo-
rate news and earnings.
Lorillard, whose cigarette brands
include Newport, Old Gold and Kent,
rose $2.92, or 4.6 percent, to $66.01.
Lorillard and rival Reynolds American
conrmed they are in talks to combine
a deal that would create a formidable
rival to Altria Group Inc., owner of
Philip Morris USA.
Investors also pored over company
earnings.
Fastenal, a maker of industrial fasten-
ers, fell the most in the S&P 500. Its
stock dropped $2.01, or 4.2 percent, to
$46.15 after reporting sales that missed
analysts expectations.
As U.S. companies start to report sec-
ond-quarter results, investors expect
more growth in prots. Earnings for
S&P 500 companies are forecast to
climb by 6.4 percent. That rise is big-
ger than the 3.4 percent increase in the
rst quarter and 4.9 percent in the same
period a year earlier, according to data
from S&P Capital IQ.
While earnings are rising, stock val-
uations have also climbed.
The price-earnings ratio for S&P 500
companies, which measures a compa-
nys stock price compared to next
years forecast earnings, has edged
higher to 15.7 from 15.1 at the start of
this year and 12.6 at the start of 2013.
With valuations where they are ...
we are pleasantly surprised at the
resilience of the market, said Colleen
Supran, a principal of Bingham,
Osborn & Scarborough an investment
management company. Investors still
seem to be able to nd reasons not to
panic.
Stocks opened on Thursday with a big
loss as investors worried about the
health of a holding company linked to
Portugals biggest bank. That revived
memories of Europes debt crisis. After
falling heavily in early trading the mar-
ket regained much of its losses.
In government bond trading, prices
rose. The yield on the 10-year Treasury
note, which moves in the opposite
direction to its price, dropped to 2.52
percent from 2.54 percent.
Oil had its biggest one-day drop since
April, as Libyan oil appears poised to
return to the market while global
demand looks to be muted. Oil fell
$2.23, or 2.2 percent, to $100.70.
Stocks stabilize to end down week
NEWYORK Astable housing market
and fewer bad loans helped lift Wells
Fargos quarterly prot 3 percent.
The countrys largest mortgage lender
said Friday that net income rose to $5.42
billion for the three months ending in
June, up from $5.27 billion a year earlier.
Thats after taking out dividends for pre-
ferred stock.
On a per-share basis, quarterly earnings
were $1.01, exactly what analysts had
forecast.
Still, revenue and a key measure of prof-
itability slipped.
As the rst major bank to post results
this earnings season, San Francisco-based
Wells Fargo & Co. sets the tone for the rest
of the industry. The third-largest U.S. bank
by assets has turned a prot in every quar-
ter since 2009.
Analysts expect banks to report weak
revenue for the second quarter as interest
rates remain at historic lows.
Wells Fargos revenue declined 1 percent
to $21.1 billion. That was slightly better
than the $20.8 billion analysts had
expected, according to the data provider
FactSet.
At the same time, Wells Fargo slashed
its losses on loans in the second quarter by
52 percent to $717 million. Thats down
from $1.2 billion the year before. The
bank said this increase in the credit quality
of its loans, along with rising home
prices, allowed it to free up $500 million
that had been set aside to protect against
losses.
The countrys biggest mortgage lender
is often seen as a bellwether for the overall
housing market. To judge by the banks
results, sales of new houses and renanc-
ing activity have cooled off. Wells Fargo
funded $47 billion worth of mortgages in
the second quarter, a steep drop from the
$112 billion in home loans made a year
earlier.
Wells Fargo has countered the decline in
home loans by turning to car loans,
investment services and other businesses.
As a result, total loans increased 4 percent
to $829 billion.
Meanwhile, customers put more money
into the bank, pushing total average
deposits up 9 percent to $1.1 trillion in the
second quarter. This wound up pinching
Wells Fargos prots, because the differ-
ence between what it paid to depositors and
what it received in interest payments
shrank. Net interest margin, a measure of
this prot, sank to 3.15 percent from 3.47
percent the year before.
The banks stock fell 51 cents, or 1 per-
cent, to $51.30. Wells Fargo has traded as
high as $53.08 and as low as $40.07.
Wells Fargo profit up three percent
UnitedHealth Group sues California over ne
SANTA ANA UnitedHealth Group has sued
Californias insurance commissioner to block a $173.6
million ne the insurer incurred for violations during a
botched acquisition.
The Los Angeles Times reports the lawsuit filed
Thursday in Orange County Superior Court accuses
Commissioner Dave Jones of setting a dangerous prece-
dent by seeking such stiff punishment for relatively
minor violations.
Insurance regulators said UnitedHealth committed more
than 900,000 violations after the takeover.
UnitedHealth has acknowledged its 2005 takeover of
PaciCare didnt go as planned. The company admits
numerous mistakes in processing medical claims and cus-
tomer applications.
In its decision, the insurance department said its pro-
posed ne appropriately reects the gravity of the
offenses.
An insurance department spokesman said Thursday the
agency hadnt had time to fully review the lawsuit.
Downside of low U.S.
mortgage rates? Less selling
WASHINGTON Would-be home sellers across the
country are grappling with a once-in-a-lifetime problem:
They have mortgage rates so absurdly low it would hurt
them nancially to sell.
Doing so would mean giving up an irresistible rate in
exchange for a new mortgage carrying a rate up to a per-
centage point higher. Their monthly payments would be
larger even for a house of the same price. That's discour-
aging some people from selling, thereby limiting the
supply of available homes and contributing to slower
home sales.
Its a signicant shift from the way the U.S. housing
market has worked for the past 30 years. For most of that
time, whenever a homeowner decided to trade up to a bet-
ter home, mortgage rates usually were lower than the last
time they had bought. That helped make a new purchase
seem more attractive.
But that is changing. The average rate on a 30-year
mortgage fell below 4 percent in late 2011 and reached a
record low level of 3.3 percent in November 2012. It did-
nt top 4 percent again until mid-2013. Homeowners took
advantage of the lower rates and a renancing boom
ensued.
Business in brief
By Michael Virtanen
ALBANY, N.Y. New Yorks attorney
general led a lawsuit Friday to block
Lyft, the on-demand ride-sharing app,
from operating in New York.
The lawsuit was led only hours before
San Francisco-based Lyft planned to
enter the New York City market. The suit
said the company actually operates as a
traditional for-hire livery service using
mobile technology, not a peer-to-peer
transportation platform as claimed.
The company operates in open de-
ance of state and local licensing and
insurance laws, according to the lawsuit
said led in state court in Manhattan. It
alleges that Lyft began operating in
Buffalo and Rochester without authori-
zations in April and currently violates
various laws.
Attorney General Eric Schneiderman
requested a court order to stop its New
York service until the suit is resolved,
plus a civil penalty and loss of prots.
Calls to the companys lawyer by the
Associated Press were not immediately
returned.
Aday earlier, the New York City Taxi &
Limousine Commission posted a notice
that, in light of Lyfts announced plans
to offer free rides in Brooklyn and Queens
starting Friday evening, its so-called ride
share service is unauthorized in the city,
that it has not complied with the com-
missions safety requirements and other
licensing criteria to verify the integrity
and qualications of the drivers or vehi-
cles used.
Lyft spokeswoman Erin Simpson told
the Daily News that the company was in
a legal process with local regulators on
Friday and will proceed accordingly.
The company seeks to work collabora-
tively with ofcials and has in cities and
states across the country, she said.
In April, the on-demand ride-sharing
app best known by the fuzzy pink mus-
taches on its cars, said it was launching
its service in 24 new locations, nearly
doubling the startups U.S. markets.
Meanwhile, its rival Uber agreed with
Schneidermans ofce on Tuesday to
limit prices during emergencies, natural
disasters or other unusual market disrup-
tions consistent with New Yorks law
against price gouging. Uber later said it
was adopting that policy in its other mar-
kets nationally. Its rates rise and fall with
demand. On Monday, Uber said it was
temporarily cutting New York City prices
in a bid to compete with taxis.
New York sues to stop ride-sharing Lyft
NEWYORK After years of fun-
neling cash to investors, companies
may be looking to spend more on
themselves. Mutual fund managers
are cheering, even if those dollars
could have gone directly to them
through dividends and stock buy-
backs.
Thats because increased corporate
spending on new factories, equip-
ment and computers could help push
the economy into its next, more sus-
tainable stage of growth. In the
short term, it means companies that
play a role in building the new facto-
ries or selling the new equipment
would benet from increased rev-
enue. In the long term, it means that
companies are investing in ways to
drive future sales growth. Both
would benet the entire market.
Consider Linda Bakhshian, one of
the managers of the $2.1 billion
Federated Capital Income fund,
among other funds. Shes a dividend-
focused investor who prefers not
only that stocks have high yields
but also that the companies are in
position to keep increasing their
payouts.
Given that approach, one might
expect she was disappointed when
Whirlpool, one of her funds hold-
ings, said this spring that it will
spend as much as $675 million on
new equipment and other capital
projects this year. That would be up
from the $578 million it spent last
year, and its money that could have
otherwise gone to increasing its div-
idend. Whirlpool on Friday said it
would spend $1 billion for a control-
ling stake in an Italian appliance
maker.
You dont want a company to pay
everything out in dividends or share
buybacks and not invest in their
own company, Bakhshian says.
Corporate eye on expansion could benefit funds

CLEVELAND If LeBron James was
going to win another NBAtitle, heal broken
hearts and continue building his legacy, he
knew there was only one place to go.
To Ohio. Home.
Four years after he left for Miami, a wide-
ly criticized departure that damaged his
image and crushed a long-suffering citys
championship hopes, James is coming
back to play for the Cavaliers to try and end
Clevelands half-century title drought. Hes
returning to his basketball roots, to the
people who know him best to make good on
a promise.
The talented kid from Akron, now a home-
coming king.
James made the announcement Friday
with a powerful essay written for Sports
Illustrated. His decision ended two weeks of
speculation about his future with teams
across the league waiting on his move.
In the end, he chose Cleveland over re-
signing with the Heat.
I looked at other teams, but I wasnt
going to leave Miami for anywhere except
Cleveland, he said to SI. The more time
passed, the more it felt right. This is what
makes me happy.
James had not yet signed a contract, but
he made it clear he will wear a Cavaliers jer-
sey next season.
When I left Cleveland, I was on a mis-
sion, James said in the SI first-person
story. I was seeking championships, and
we won two. But Miami already knew that
feeling. Our city hasnt had that feeling in a
long, long, long time. My goal is still to
win as many titles as possible, no question.
But whats most important for me is bring-
ing one trophy back to Northeast Ohio.
James is the leagues best all-around play-
er, a four-time MVP who was dubbed The
Chosen One as a cant-miss high school
star. At 6-foot-8, 260 pounds, he can score
from all over and is one of the games best
passers and defenders.

SAN FRANCISCO Tim Lincecum and
two relievers combined on a ve-hitter, and
Lincecum drove in a run with a safety squeeze,
helping the San Francisco Giants beat the
Arizona Diamondbacks 5-0 on Friday night.
Pablo Sandoval homered and drove in three
runs to break out of a slump that extended
back to late June. The Giants third baseman,
hitting just .222 over his previous 16 games,
also had an RBI-double and an ineld single.
Lincecum (9-5) allowed three hits over
seven innings and fanned Gerado Parra to end
a two-on, two-out jam in the seventh. The
two-time NL Cy Young Award winner, owner
of a no-hitter this season, struck out six and
walked two.
Even longtime nemesis Paul Goldschmidt
struggled against Lincecum. The Arizona rst
baseman went hitless in three plate appear-
ances against the right-hander.
It is the rst time Lincecum has won four
consecutive starts since April 5-23, 2010.
During his current streak, he has given up just
one run over 30 1-3 innings a remarkable
0.30 ERA.
Lincecum helped himself at the plate and
recovered after stumbling over the bag while
covering rst base on Aaron Hills ineld
grounder for the nal out in the third.
Juan Gutierrez pitched 1 1/3 innings and
Jeremy Affeldt got the nal two outs to com-
plete the shutout.
San Francisco had lost 15 of its last 19
games at AT&T Park before jumping on
Arizona starter Mike Bolsinger (1-6) for two
runs in the rst and two more in the second.
Sandoval got the Giants going with his
11th home run of the season, a two-run blast
to right.
Brandon Crawfords RBI single in the sec-
ond made it 3-0. Lincecum followed with a
safety squeeze to drive in Joe Panik, who
walked and took third on Crawfords hit.
Hunter Pence and Brandon Belt opened the
fth with consecutive singles before
Sandoval doubled down the left eld line to
extend the Giants lead to 5-0.
Bolsinger gave up ve runs and eight hits
over ve innings. The Arizona rookie struck
out ve and walked two but is winless since
April 24.
Before the game the Giants activated second
baseman Marco Scutaro from the disabled list.
RIO DE JANEIRO The most
entertaining World Cup in a genera-
tion comes down to a nal match
that pits the planets best player
against the tournaments best team.
Lionel Messi will lead Argentina
out against Germany at Maracana
Stadium on Sunday for a game that
will dene careers, cement legacies
and be watched by a global audience
of about a billion viewers.
And its a matchup that means
more to both sides than just a
chance to lift one of the most hal-
lowed trophies in sports.
For Messi, its a chance to rmly
make his case for
being perhaps
the greatest ever
to play the
worlds most
popular game.
For Germany,
its an opportu-
nity to make up
for a number of
n e a r - mi s s e s
over the last decade and re-establish
itself as the dominant force in inter-
national football.
And then theres the matter of set-
tling a historical score. Argentina
and West Germany played each other
in two straight World Cup nals in
1986 and 90, games that are well
remembered in the sports psyche of
both countries. Diego Maradona
and Argentina won the rst, the
Germans took the second. So call
this game the tiebreaker.
At this point who is favorite,
who is not, it doesnt make a differ-
ence, Argentina midelder Maxi
Rodriguez said. Both teams feel a
responsibility to go all the way.
Most would name Germany as the
favorite, especially after its
astounding 7-1 drubbing of host
Brazil in the seminals. Argentina
only reached the nal after eking out

MONCKS CORNER, S.C. Gone
are the days when Bruce Ellington
would rush from a basketball work-
out with South Carolina teammates
to a football meeting room to learn
the complex schemes of coach Steve
Spurrier. Ellingtons only focus is

It was fun, all the rushing
around, said Ellington, taken in the
fourth round by the 49ers. I thought
I could do and I went after it.
Ellington hosted a youth camp

SEATTLE Felix Hernandez outpitched
Jeff Samardzija, Robinson Cano hit a go-
ahead double and the Seattle Mariners beat
the Oakland Athletics 3-2 Friday night.
Fernando Rodney got his 27th save, get-
ting Nick Punto on a called strike three to end
it with a runner on third. Punto slammed his
batting helmet to the ground with both hands
and argued with plate umpire James Hoye,
and As manager Bob Melvin joined in, say-
ing the full-count pitch missed the strike
zone.
Hernandez (11-2) threw eight strong
innings. He reached 11 victories before the
All-Star break for the rst time in his career,
getting nicked for two early runs and then
shutting down the AL West-leading As the
rest of the night.
Hernandez made his 11th straight start
going at least seven innings and giving up
two earned runs or less. Its the longest
streak for an American League pitcher since
Gaylord Perry had 11 straight for Cleveland
in 1974.
Cano came through
with the clutch base hit
Seattle has lacked. James
Jones doubled with two
outs in the sixth and Cano
followed with a are that
landed inches fair down
the left-eld line to break
a 2-all tie.
Seattle had been 2 for
35 with runners in scor-
ing position prior to
Canos double.
Samardzija is 1-1 with Oakland after going
2-7 for the Chicago Cubs.
Samardzija threw eight innings, allowing
only ve hits and striking out ve.
Hernandez struck out nine and gave up six
hits. He rebounded following a shaky rst
inning to stop the team with the best record
in baseball.
Oakland scored a pair of rare rst-inning
runs off Seattles ace.
Stephen Vogts solo homer was just the
sixth allowed by Hernandez this season,
extending his hitting streak to 11 games.
Josh Donaldson followed with a double and
scored on Jed Lowries single that sneaked
through the ineld.
Hernandez had given up three rst-inning
runs all season.
But after Lowries single, Hernandez per-
mitted just four baserunners. He struck out
the side in the fourth and sixth inning and
needed just ve pitches to cruise through the
seventh.
Hernandez found himself in a jam in the
fth with runners on the corners and two
outs, but Donaldson ied out.
After Vogt led off the eighth with a single,
Donaldson grounded into a double play,
drawing a fist pump and scream from
Hernandez. He then got Brandon Moss to
ground out on his 101st pitch to end the
eighth and his night.
Seattle chipped away at Samardzija, start-
ing with Logan Morrisons homer leading
off the second. Seattle pulled even in the
third when Brad Miller doubled, advanced to
third on Mike Zuninos groundout and scored
on Endy Chavezs sacrice y.
NOTES: Hernandez won 10 games before
the All-Star break in 2009 and 2013. Oakland
rst baseman Alberto Callaspo left the game
in the second inning after straining his right
hamstring running out a ground ball.
Coco Crisp was out of Fridays lineup with
a sore neck and Melvin unsure of his avail-
ability for the series.

The 38-year-old inelder,
who played a pivotal role
in San Franciscos march
toward the 2012 World
Series championship, has
not played this season
because of a lower back
strain.
The Diamondbacks wel-
comed back one of their
key players but didnt get
the same spark. Outelder Mark Trumbo, side-
lined with a stress fracture in his left foot
since April 21, went 1 for 4 and grounded out
to third to end the game.
NOTES: Lincecum has pitched 27 consecu-
tive scoreless innings at AT&T Park.
Scutaro will make his rst start Saturday.
Arizona catcher Miguel Montero was named
to the NLAll-Star team as a replacement for
injured St. Louis catcher Yadier Molina. Its
Monteros second All-Star selection.
To make room for Trumbo, the
Diamondbacks optioned OF Roger
Kieschnick to Triple-A Reno. Left-hander
Wade Miley (4-6), Arizonas starting pitch-
er on Saturday, has a 3.63 ERA in seven
career games against San Francisco. Giants
right-hander Ryan Vogelsong (5-6) has lost
his previous three starts.

Tuivailala keeps racking up Ks
after promotion to Double-A
Sam Tuivailala recently made the jump to
Double-A and the right-handed reliever just
keeps mowing em down.
After an exceptional
strikeout showing for St.
Louis Cardinals High-A
afliate Palm Beach this
season, Tuivailala a
third-round draft pick out
of Aragon in 2010
debuted with Double-A
Springeld Thursday, r-
ing two perfect innings
while striking out three,
including the rst two batters he faced, in a 5-
4 loss to Royals afliate Northwest Arkansas.
Tuivailala entered the game with Springeld
leading 4-1 and protected the lead to earn a
hold. However, Northwest Arkansas rallied for
four runs in the ninth against Springeld reliev-
ers Lee Stoppleman and Justin Wright to win it.
Prior to his promotion, Tuivailala appeared
in 29 games, working 37 2/3 innings while
striking out 64 against 18 walks. He posted a
0-1 record and has yet to tab a career win
since converting to the mound in 2012.
At Springeld, Tuivailala joins former St.
Marys third baseman Patrick Wisdom. A
native of Murrieta, Wisdom continues to
show his power potential with 11 home runs
at Springeld this season. He hit 15 through
464 at-bats between two lower levels last
year in his rst full professional season.
Wisdom was a supplemental rst-round pick
by the Cards in 2012.
Harlan makes first start
of season in Double-A debut
Tuesday, San Bruno native Tom Harlan made
his Double-A debut as well. A 13th round
selection by the Pittsburgh Pirates out of
Fresno State in the 2012 draft, Harlan has
made his bones as a pro by virtue of steady
left-handed relief work.
Earlier this season at High-A Bradenton,
Harlan made 21 appear-
ances, all in relief, post-
ing a 3-3 record with a
2.49 ERA.
In his debut at Double-A
Altoona though, Harlan
tabbed his rst start of the
year, and just the second
of his career, with solid
results in an 11-5 loss to
Tigers afliate Erie. The
southpaw worked a career-high ve innings,
allowing two runs (one earned) on seven hits.
He walked off the mound after the top of the
fth with the game tied 2-2; but Altoona ral-
lied for two runs in the bottom of the inning
to put Harlan in line for the win.
However, Erie rallied for nine runs over the
nal two innings to win it.
Maffei making most
of limited playing time
Former Serra and College of San Mateo stand-
out Justin Maffei also garnered a recent promo-
tion for the Pirates, moving up to High-Aafli-
ate Bradenton on July 4. He has appeared in just
two games for the Marauders, but got in the hit
column Thursday with a 2-for-4 showing with a
stolen base and a run scored in a 4-1 win over
Mets afliate St. Lucie.
In his July 4 debut,
Maffei went 0 for 2 batting
out of the leadoff spot, but
tabbed the game-winning
RBI with a bases-loaded
walk in the ninth to help
Bradenton to a 7-4 win
over Cardinals afliate
Palm Beach.
Maffei was a 25th round
pick out of University of
San Francisco in 2013. He
hit for career .302 average while stealing 39
bases in two seasons with the Dons. Prior to
his promotion, he was hitting .239 through
226 at-bats at Low-AWest Virginia.

Giants have signed rst-round draft pick
Tyler Beede to a contract that includes a
signing bonus of more than $2.6 million.
Beede was the 14th overall pick in last
months draft. The pitcher met with team
ofcials and Giants manager Bruce Bochy
before Friday nights game against Arizona
at AT&T Park.
Beede went 8-8 with a 4.05 ERA and
struck out 116 in 19 starts while leading
Vanderbilt to its first
national championship.
In 2013, the right-han-
der led Division I with a

plans to have him take
part in a conditioning
and pitching program before putting him in
a game.

Staying in Miami would have been easy. He could have
made another run at a third title and fth straight NBAnals
appearance with the Heat and close friends Dwyane Wade and
Chris Bosh, the other members of a Big 3 who have been
the leagues team-to-hate since 2010.
Instead, James picked the young, unproven Cavs, with a
rookie coach who spent last year in Israel. Almost unbe-
lievably, hell again work for owner Dan Gilbert, who
torched James on his way out the door in 2010.
For Cleveland, a city accustomed to so much sports
heartache as the Cavaliers, Browns and Indians have
come close but failed to win it all news of James return
triggered a spontaneous downtown celebration during
Fridays lunch hours.
Car horns blared and strangers high-ved on the side-
walks outside Quicken Loans Arena, where James had so
many big moments during his rst seven seasons as a pro.
Four years ago, some fans burned his jersey. On July 11,
2014, all was forgiven.
The Cavs were considered a longshot when free agency
opened. But as the days went by, Cleveland improbably
emerged as a possible landing spot over Miami. While he
was in Las Vegas earlier this week, James met with Heat
president Pat Riley, the architect who assembled Miamis
back-to-back championship teams.
Riley made a nal pitch, but he had nothing to match the
overwhelming lure of home.
Before anyone ever cared where I would play basketball,
I was a kid from Northeast Ohio, James told SI. ... People
there have seen me grow up. I sometimes feel like Im their
son. Their passion can be overwhelming. But it drives me.
James exit ends an era in Miami, and will likely lead to
Bosh signing elsewhere. The Heat now face an uncertain
future after four straight Eastern Conference titles. Wade and
Bosh all opted out this summer, as did longtime Heat for-
ward Udonis Haslem.
I went to Miami because of D-Wade and CB, James told
SI. I believed we could do something magical if we came
together. And thats exactly what we did! The hardest thing
to leave is what I built with those guys.
James was scorned for turning his back on Cleveland in
2010, announcing his decision on a poorly conceived TV
special. His critics said he wasnt good enough to win a
championship by himself, and that he needed to surround
himself with All-Stars.
James may never surpass Michael Jordans six titles, but
his legacy could be being able to bring one to Cleveland,
devoid of a championship in any sport since 1964.

a penalty shootout win over the Netherlands
following a 0-0 draw through 120 minutes.
Germany also dismantled Argentina 4-0 in
the 2010 quarternals in South Africa.
Germany is a great team. What happened to
Brazil could happen to any team, Argentina
forward Sergio Aguero said. (But) we have
players who can create danger up front. Were
in the nal for a reason.
One thing speaks against Germany, too. No
European team has ever won a World Cup
played in the Americas. Whether thats
because of the climate, the fan support or
something else, Germany thinks it can buck
the trend.
We are looking forward to playing a South
American team in South America but we hope
the Brazilian fans will be supporting us,
Germany assistant coach Hansi Flick said.
We know the Argentina team very well,
weve played often against them. We know
what to expect.
The question is, what can Argentina expect
from Messi?
For Argentina to have a chance, the
Barcelona forward will have to perform con-
siderably better than he did against the
Netherlands, when he was hardly visible for
most of the game.
The four-time world player of the year
scored four goals in the three group games but
is on a three-game scoring drought in the
knockout stages including two extra time
periods. While fellow forwards Gonzalo
Higuain and Sergio Aguero are both capable of
deciding big games themselves, and the
teams defense has looked surprisingly solid,
its hard to see Argentina winning without a
big contribution from Messi.
For Germany, the equation is equally sim-
ple: If it can contain Argentinas biggest
threat, its superior strength in the rest of the
eld should make the difference. From goal-
keeper to center forward, Germany is a team
without a weakness. With the exception of an
erratic performance against Algeria in the sec-
ond round, Germany has played like a perfect
team machine, getting goals from defenders,
midelders and forwards alike.
Well have to keep with Messi constantly
and try to disturb him, Germany forward
Thomas Mueller said. It will be important to
act as a unit.
Germany has not won a major tournament
since the 1996 European Championship, los-
ing in the nal of the 2002 World Cup and
Euro 2008. It was knocked out in the semi-
nals at both the 2006 and 2010 World Cups,
and Euro 2012.
Forward Miroslav Klose, who scored his
record 16th World Cup goal against Brazil in
the seminals, is the only player who remains
from that 2002 team.
I dont want to lose another nal, Klose
said. I want to lift the cup.
Regardless of what happens, Kloses legacy
is already secure as the tournaments all-time
top scorer. To say Messis will be dened by
one game is an exaggeration, but the World
Cup trophy is the only thing that currently
separates him from the likes of Pele and
Maradona in the echelon of all-time greats.
If he lifts it on Sunday, hell join them for
good. Maybe even as the best of them all.

Instead, he decided his future was
solely on the court. He led the
Gamecocks in scoring as a freshman
in 2010-11, starting all 30 games.
But when South Carolina struggled
to win games, Ellington felt like he
was missing out not playing along-
side football standouts like Alshon
Jeffery, Marcus Lattimore and
Stephone Gilmore also Palmetto
State prep stars.
I didnt say much about it, Andre
Ellington said. But I knew he was
going to miss football.
So Bruce began a two-sport
odyssey that continued for three
years until January, when he gave up
his senior seasons in basketball and
football to jump to the NFL.
It took some time to realize what
I wanted to do, Ellington said.
This is it.
And Ellington believes hell con-
tinue improving in the pros. At 5-
foot-9, Ellington is tied for the
shortest receiver on the 49ers ros-
ter. But Ellingtons got a relentless
nature for nding open space and
holding onto almost everything
thrown his way, said his former
high school coach Jerry Brown.
Footballs played on a big eld
and its hard to track someone like
Bruce whos got so much agility,
Brown said.
Ellington found his football form
as a sophomore when he was South
Carolinas top receiver with 40
catches for 600 yards and seven
touchdowns, including a 32-yard
grab with 11 seconds left to beat
Michigan in the Outback Bowl two
years ago.
Ellington was again South
Carolinas top receiver in 2013. His
best regular-season showing came
at Missouri when he had 10 catches
for 136 yards and two touchdowns in
the 27-24, double-overtime victory.
Ellington saved the game in the rst
overtime with his fourth-and-goal,
15-yard TD catch to keep things
going.
I think that may have been my
favorite moment, he said, smiling.
Ellington capped his college
career with his most versatile game:
He had nine catches for 140 yards
and two touchdowns to beat
Wisconsin in the Capital One Bowl.
Ellington also threw a nine-yard TD
pass to quarterback Connor Shaw.
Ellington kept his football men-
tality while continually playing and
training with basketball teammates.
South Carolina basketball coach
Frank Martin never saw Ellingtons
intensity drop, no matter what he
had done to prepare for football.
Ellington, 22, swears he never
got worn down at playing or prep-
ping for two major college sports at
a Southeastern Conference school.
Im a young guy, he said. Its
hard to get tired.
Ellington believes he can bring
that drive to the 49ers. The team
hasnt put expectations on him and
he wont either, eager to prove his
worth when the games start. And no,
he says hes not planning a call to
the NBAs Golden State Warriors to
see if he can get in some hoops
action in his down time.
Im just going to work hard, give
it a hundred (percent) every time I
step on the eld and keep on chas-
ing the dream, he said.
NINERS
NANCY, France Matteo
Trentin of Italy won Fridays sev-
enth stage of the Tour de France in a
photo nish, after a group crash and
a hilly nal section split the pack.
Fellow Italian Vincenzo Nibali
retained the overall lead. U.S. rider
Tejay van Van Garderen, who
crashed within the last 17 kilome-
ters, was the big loser on the day
with his fall costing him more
than a minute in the title chase.
The sun nally broke through
clouds that had dumped rain over rid-
ers in recent days for the 234.5 kilo-
meter (146 mile) ride from Epernay,
the capital of Champagne country,
to the eastern city of Nancy.
Trentin, a 24-year-old rider who
won a stage in the Tour of Switzerland
earlier this year, beat Slovakias
Peter Sagan by what looked like no
more than a centimeter or two on the
nish-line photo of the nal sprint.
Trentin patted the Cannondale rider
on the back after crossing the line.
Sagan, who has come close several
times, has yet to win a stage this year.
Frances Tony Gallopin was third.
BMC leader van Garderen was not
the only American to have a bad day.
Andrew Talansky fell in the nal
sprint, rolling over and scufng up
his left arm after getting hit by
Australias Simon Gerrans.
But under course rules, Talansky,
the Garmin-Sharp team leader, did-
nt lose time in the title chase
because his crash happened within
the last 3 kilometers. He yelled in
frustration after crossing the line.
Overall, Nibali has a two-second
lead over Astana teammate Jakob
Fuglsang and is two minutes, 37 sec-
onds clear of Alberto Contador, his
main rival. Talansky is seventh 2
minutes, 5 seconds back.
There have really been a lot of
crashes this year, in the nal
sprints, Nibali said. We all knew
that Sagan wanted a win today ... The
end of the stage was very hard.
With about 16 kilometers left, a
Movistar rider bumped the back
wheel of van Garderen as he moved to
the right in the pack. They tumbled
to the asphalt, and van Garderen got
rolled over by another riders bike.
The BMC leader got up and back
into the race, but lost time to the
race contenders even after sever-
al of his teammates dropped back to
try to help him catch up.
Overall van Garderen trails 3
minutes, 14 behind Nibali, in
18th place, after starting the stage
only 2:11 adrift.
Trentin wins 7th Tour de France stage
AP Sources: Chris Bosh
agrees to max deal with Heat
Two people familiar with the sit-
uation say that Chris Bosh has
agreed to a maximum deal with the
Miami Heat.
The people said that Bosh will
be getting a ve-year deal worth
about $118 million. The people
spoke to The Associated Press on
Friday on condition of anonymity
because neither the team nor Bosh
had publicly announced the deal.
Boshs deal comes not long after
LeBron James announced earlier

JERUSALEM Asserting it has broad
international support for a erce military
offensive in the Gaza Strip, Israel is showing
no signs of ending the operation, vowing to
press on until there is a halt to rocket attacks
from the seaside territory.
But a mounting Palestinian civilian death
toll is beginning to draw international criti-
cism and could quickly put the brakes on the
campaign.
Israeli ofcials say they are pleased with
the results of the four-day operation so far.
Military ofcials say the round-the-clock
airstrikes have hit Hamas hard, taking out the
militant groups command centers, rocket-
launchers and storage sites, and knocking out
much of its long-range rocket arsenal.
A greater threat and gamble for the
Israelis would be sending ground troops
into Gaza.
Addressing a nationally televised news
conference Friday, Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu said the offensive was progressing
well and brushed off a question about a possi-
ble cease-re, suggesting the campaign will
continue for some time. He also refused to rule
out a ground offensive.
I will end it when our goals are realized.
And the overriding goal is to restore the peace
and quiet, Netanyahu said.
Israel began the assault Tuesday in what it
said was a response to weeks of heavy rocket
re out of the Hamas-controlled Gaza. It is the
heaviest ghting since a similar eight-day
campaign in November 2012. The outbreak
of violence follows the kidnappings and
killings of three Israeli teenagers in the West
Bank, and the kidnapping and killing of a
Palestinian teenager in an apparent revenge
attack.
In four days, Israel has pummeled more than
1,000 targets in Gaza twice the rate of the
2012 operation. More than 100 Palestinians
have been killed, including dozens of civil-
ians, according to the Health Ministry in
Gaza.
Adding to Israels technological edge, the
Iron Dome, a U.S.-funded, Israel-developed
rocket defense system, has intercepted more
than 100 incoming rockets, preventing any
Israeli fatalities so far. Palestinian militants
have red more than 600 rockets, most
falling in open areas.
Asked about reaching a possible cease-re,
Netanyahu evaded the question. Instead, he
said he has held phone conversations with
key allies, including President Barack Obama
and the leaders of Germany, Britain, France,
Canada and Russia.
He described the talks as positive and said
he had told his counterparts that no country
would tolerate rocket attacks on its citizens.
No international pressure will prevent us
from acting with all power, he said.
Israels ambassador to the U.S., Ron
Dermer, told reporters that Israel has strong
diplomatic backing for what its trying to
do.
For now, international criticism of Israel
appears to be muted. White House spokesman
Josh Earnest reafrmed Israels right to
defend itself, although he also called for the
sides to restore calm and to protect inno-
cent civilians.
Britain, another close ally, this week also
offered its staunch support for Israels right
to self-defense, while Canadian Prime
Minister Stephen Harper reiterated Canadas
steadfast support for Israel, his ofce said.
But the support has not been wall-to-wall.
France, home to Europes largest Jewish
and Muslim populations, has sent mixed mes-
sages. Early this week, President Francois
Hollande said Israel should take all meas-
ures to protect its population. But following
some criticism, he later deplored the numer-
ous Palestinian victims and said the escala-
tion must cease.
The European Union also has been meas-
ured, condemning the indiscriminate rocket
re from Gaza on Israeli population centers
but also deploring the growing number of
civilian casualties.

KABUL, Afghanistan The United States
struggled Friday to nd a path out of a presi-
dential election crisis in Afghanistan that has
jeopardized chances for a democratic transfer of
power, a central plank of President Barack
Obamas strategy to leave behind a stable state
after the withdrawal of most U.S. troops at
years end.
Secretary of State John Kerry held a series of
back-to-back meetings in Kabul that went into
the night, grappling for a plan acceptable to
all that would allow the
United Nations to audit
extensive fraud allegations
in last months runoff
vote.
Kerry met separately
with the rival candidates,
former Finance Minister
Ashraf Ghani Ahmadzai
and former Foreign
Minister Abdullah
Abdullah, and conferred
twice each with current President Hamid Karzai
and the U.N. chief in Afghanistan, Jan Kubis. A
deal remained elusive, according to senior U.S.
ofcials, though Kerry was to hold further dis-
cussions Saturday.
We are in a very, very critical moment for
Afghanistan, Kerry told reporters.
Legitimacy hangs in the balance. The future
potential of the transition hangs in the bal-
ance.
The bitter dispute over who is Karzais right-
ful successor has alarmed Afghanistans U.S.
and Western benefactors, creating a political
crisis that risks undermining more than a
decade of efforts to build an Afghan govern-
ment capable of ghting the Taliban on its own
and snufng out terrorist groups like al-Qaida.
Aprolonged crisis would have more immedi-
ate consequences for Afghanistan. If no
process is established and both Ghani and
Abdullah attempt to seize power, the govern-
ment and security forces could split along eth-
nic and regional lines.
And the winner amid all the chaos could be
the Taliban, whose battle against the govern-
ment persists despite the United States spend-
ing hundreds of billions of dollars and losing
more than 2,000 lives since invading the
country after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist
attacks.

The 2014 version of Godzilla, right, nally comes to Japanese movie screens in the next couple of weeks. There is trepidation, about its reception,
however, because of the loyalty many fans feel toward the original, left.
By Yuri Kageyama
TOKYO Tokyo is rolling out
the red carpet for Hollywoods
Godzilla remake although the
nation that gave birth to the re-
breathing monster is seeing the
latest movie after it opened every-
where else.
Godzilla, opening in the U.S.
May 16, has grossed more than
$488 million globally.
But trepidation remains about its
reception in Japan because of the
intense loyalty fans feel toward
the original. The lm opens in
Japan on July 25.
Director Gareth Edwards, present
in Tokyo for the gala Thursday,
stressed he had merely parented
what was the child of Japan.
It feels like a homecoming,
said Edwards. His home is Japan.
Ken Watanabe, whose
Godzilla role is one of several
appearances in Hollywood lms,
acknowledged pressure was high
for how the lm may be received in
Japan.
It might be a challenge for
Japanese to accept this movie, he
said after posing with a gure of
Godzilla on the red carpet.
He said some scenes show the
wreckage of a giant tsunami, evok-
ing painful memories of the March
2011 disaster in northeastern
Japan, which killed nearly 19,000
people and set off the worst
nuclear catastrophe since
Chernobyl.
I have a special feeling for this
film because of the disaster,
Watanabe said.
Edwards 3-D Godzilla, complete
with glistening scales, spikes
down its back and a terrifying roar,
pays homage to the original, trac-
ing the theme of the threat of radi-
ation, following Americas atomic
attacks on Japan in World War II.
Although Godzilla has grown to
be one of Japans most iconic
exports, along with sushi and
geisha, its status in mainstream
entertainment has waned here.
Toho Co., the creators of
Godzilla movies since the rst one
in 1954, stopped making them
after the 28th in a series in 2004.
Ofcials say times have changed
and an actor thrashing about in a
rubber suit, smashing miniature
models of buildings, just doesnt
cut it anymore.
Watanabe said the films late
opening in Japan was because of
technical reasons about summer
vacations coming later, and denied
it was intentional to avoid jinxing
it by having it possibly fail in the
land of Godzillas birth.
But he laughed and shook his
head when asked whether the best
was being saved for last.
Hard-core Godzilla fans think
nothing can live up to the charm
and pathos of the original, and
scoff at computer graphics and
other modern lmmaking technol-
ogy.
Akira Takarada, who played the
young diver in the rst Godzilla
and appeared in many sequels, said
he burst into tears when he
watched the new Godzilla in the
U.S., and the crowd began stomp-
ing on the oor, and then gave
Godzilla a standing ovation when
it nally appeared about an hour
into the movie.
A giant hero they had been
waiting for had arrived, he said
with emotion in his voice.
Edwards appeared condent his
movie would win over Japanese
fans.
Theyre the best fans in the
world, he said. Theyre crazy.

BEVERLY HILLS Foo
Fighters frontman Dave Grohl
brought a rock n roll sensibility
to the usually buttoned-down
atmosphere of the summer TV crit-
ics tour.
His enthusiasm for his new HBO
project Foo Fighters: Sonic
Highways was evident with F-
bombs sprinkled throughout his
description of the eight-part docu-
mentary series.
Later, Grohls cellphone rang
(Sorry, Im new to this, he said,
fumbling to sh the phone out of
his jeans pocket) and then the mic
clipped on his rumpled black jack-
et fell off in his lap Thursday.
Not quite the typical presenta-

groomed TV directors, producers,
writers and actors who come to the
well-heeled Beverly Hilton to talk
up their latest projects.
Grohl admitted his love of play-

him to a sit-in with a cover band at

DAILY JOURNAL SENIOR CORRESPONDENT
SUCH A FINE SIGHT TO SEE:
STANDING ON THE CORNER IN
WINSLOW, ARIZONA. Well, Im a
standin on a corner in Winslow, Arizona,
such a ne sight to see; its a girl, my Lord,
in a atbed Ford, slowin down to take a
look at me. The lyrics are from the 1972
song Take It Easy, written by Jackson
Browne and Glenn Frey, and made famous by
The Eagles. Life imitates art every day on
one particular corner in Winslow, Arizona
as travelers make a pilgrimage to this place
immortalized in song. All the pieces are
there: a life-size statue of a guitar-toting
young man standing on the corner and a re
engine red atbed Ford parked at the curb.
And the girl? Yes, shes there as well,
behind the wheel of the truck seen reect-
ed in a trompe-loeil store window.
IG7 WOM. Longtime Winslow resident
Dr. Greg Hackler said, Today it is difcult
to fathom how many people come to
Winslow to see the corner. Word got
around pretty quickly after a small opening
(which was only meant to be a one-time cel-
ebration) with a few hundred people on
Sept. 11, 1999. The [now] annual festival
has grown so large that the gathering place
had to be moved from the corner to a festival
area to accommodate the crowds who come
to celebrate again and again. Who would
have known that the bronze [young man] on
the corner watching a girl in a atbed Ford
would be photographed so many hundreds of
times a week. Little-known nuances of the
mural that may not register with some peo-
ple are: The license plate on the front of the
truck in the mural is not in reverse reection
as is the FORD lettering, but rather reads
IG7 WOM representing the lyrics I got 7
women on my mind. Also, if the girl were a
true reection, she would be driving from
the opposite side of the cab.
STAYING IN WINSLOW: LA POSA-
DA HOTEL. In the 1920s, hotel operator
Fred Harvey and the Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe Railway decided to build a major
hotel in the center of northern Arizona and
chose Winslow, which was then (as it still
is) ideally situated, since everything to see
and do in northern Arizona is within a com-
fortable days drive. Their undertaking
resulted in La Posada, a grand and now lov-
ingly restored 1929 hotel set in spacious
gardens. La Posada the resting place
was the masterpiece of the storied architect
Mary Elizabeth Jane Colter, who styled the
complex as a rambling 1869 Spanish
hacienda, with stone and tile oors, colon-
nades, red clay roofs and decorative iron-
work. The furniture, painting and decorative
objects resemble those that a wealthy
Southwestern ranching family would have
assembled over generations. Many guest
rooms (and no two are alike) feature hand-
made Ponderosa pine beds, hand-woven
Zapotec rugs and Mexican tin and Talavera
tile mirrors. There are views into the gar-
dens, into a Cottonwood Grove, and across
the lawn to the Santa Fe railroad.
THE TURQUOISE ROOM. La Posadas
elegant on-site restaurant, The Turquoise
Room, serves innovative contemporary
Southwestern cuisine under the direction of
celebrated Chef John R. Sharpe. For break-
fast, try a bowl of warm yellow corn polen-
ta topped with re roasted tomatoes, fresh
spinach, two poached eggs, Jalapeno jack
cheese and a fresh roasted corn salsa. Dinner
might start with a creamy sweet corn soup
with smooth and spicy black bean topped
with spicy chile cream, followed by an
entree of free range grazed White Tail Deer
medallions with a black currant sauce, wild
mushroom corn an and sugar snap peas.
Top off the meal with a dessert of Warm
Prickly Pear Cactus and Spice Bread
Pudding.
LA POSADA PARTICULARS: La
Posada is located at 303 E. Second St.
(Route 66) Winslow, AZ 86047. The gift
shop features a wide selection of fine
Navajo, Hopi, Zuni and authentic Fred
Harvey jewelry, Native American arts,
Mexican pottery, folk art and books. All
guests receive a copy of the self-guided
walking tour of the hotel at check-in. Three
hotel documentaries are available for view-
ing. For more information, call 928-289-
4366 or visit http://www.laposada.org.

gonna travel wild and free. Im gonna pack
my bags because this great big world is call-

SLOWIN DOWN TO TAKE A LOOK AT ME. Visitors from around the world come to Standin on the Corner Park in Winslow, Arizona, made
famous by The Eagles song. A bronze statute, a full wall trompe-loeil mural and a red atbed Ford bring the lyrics to life. The corner was
dedicated in 1999 as a tribute to the memorable 1972 song that brought international fame to this Route 66 town.

views musicians tied to a particular city, including Buddy
Guy, Dolly Parton, Chuck D, Gibby Haynes, Allen

Currently, the campus is one continuous
building made up of two three-story wings
connected by a single-story student center.
The architectural design achieves LEED, or
Leadership in Energy and Environmental
Design, Gold certication by the U.S. Green
Building Council and contains an athletic
center and gym, ne arts space, science lab-
oratories and an organic garden atop the stu-
dent center.
Eventually, Nueva plans to build an
indoor performing arts center and another
free-standing classroom building, Forsell
said.
Although transit-oriented residential and
commercial developments continue to
boom throughout the Peninsula, Forsell
said the Nueva School is one of the rst edu-
cational institutions following the trend.
To ensure it promotes transit-oriented
standards, Lee and Forsell said the school is
prohibiting students from parking on cam-
pus except under special circumstances and
providing Caltrain passes and shuttle serv-
ices instead. The campus is a 1,900-foot
walk from the Hillsdale Caltrain station,
Forsell said.
Our number one goal with the Bay
Meadows project is to have it be a success-
ful transit-oriented development with visi-
tors and employees and residents taking the
train. So I think Nueva was really able to
support that goal, Forsell said.
The development of the old race tracks 83
acres between the Hillsdale and Hayward
Park Caltrain stations is slated for 1,170
housing units, retail and ofce space and 18
acres of park. The development was part of a
wide-scale vision of the city when it passed
the second phase of the Bay Meadows
Transit-Oriented Development in 2005. The
rst phase, at the location of the practice
track for Bay Meadows, has single-family
homes and apartments, along with the head-
quarters of Franklin-Templeton and a shop-
ping center featuring a Whole Foods
Market. In both phases, with more than 160
acres, the city sought to capitalize on its
key location next to public transit and
Highway 101 and State Route 92.
The private school was founded 45 years
ago and holds classes prekindergarten
through eighth-grade at its Hillsborough
campus. Last year, it hosted its rst high
school class by temporarily using facilities
at the College of San Mateo, Lee said.
Although construction is still underway,
the school plans on having ninth- and
10th-grade class in the coming year and
eventually growing into a four-year private
high school, Lee said.
Last years tuition was $38,000 and Lee
said Nueva attracts students from San Jose
to Marin County. Lee said he anticipates
160 students at Bay Meadows next year with
full occupancy at 400.
The school promotes ride share services
by running 16 private buses through its
Hillsborough campus and Bay Meadows
students will have access to private buses as
well a host of public transit options, Lee
said.
In San Mateo, were really excited about
the proximity to Caltrain and other public
transit like SamTrans, Lee said. It wasnt
like were trying to t a model into an envi-
ronment that isnt already optimized for it.
With public transit being so accessible to
the school, with other amenities being so
accessible, people dont need cars to get
around.
Forsell said Nueva was one of the rst to
buy land from the Bay Meadows master
developer Wilson Meany, enabling it to cre-
ate a unique transit-oriented environment.
The level of green building and the fact
that its a private school thats really aspir-
ing to be very forward thinking, very
unique, very progressive, very environmen-
tally sensitive, thats just part of their mis-
sion, Forsell said. They had to design a
campus focusing on having the spaces
designed to achieve that type of educational
program that they embody.
Lee said the building has myriad attributes
that promote sustainability such as using
hundreds of overhead natural fans instead of
relying on air conditioning. One of the
campus courtyards will be landscaped with
ecology in mind and use plants native to
San Mateo, Lee said.
Nueva is extremely excited to become part
of the transit-oriented Bay Meadows com-
munity and continuing to represent its stu-
dent body, Lee said.
Were trying to create a school thats a
better reection of where our kids are today
and where theyre trying to go tomorrow
and our kids are extremely aware of the envi-
ronment of traffic, water, pollution,
etcetera, Lee said. What we really hope is
that we will become a real asset to and a
point of pride for not only our school, but
for San Mateo the city and the county.

Commission recommendation to amend the
zoning code. If passed, a denition of pay-
day loan business will be added to the code
rather than filed under the umbrella of
bank and they will be allowed to operate
without a use permit in four zoning areas:
ofce commercial, BARTofce commercial,
light commercial and Sullivan Corridor
Specic Plan District. The proposal also
calls for a 1,000-foot minimum distance
between new payday loan businesses and
other payday lenders.
The last caveat is meant to prevent future
concentration and keep space available for
more traditional nancial institutions like
credit unions or banks, according to a staff
report to the council.
Currently, the city says there are ve
licensed check cashing businesses in Daly
City some whose 1,000-foot boundary
overlap each other which are concentrat-
ed along the Mission Street corridor. City
staff say, based on 2010 census data, these
businesses are located mainly among Daly
Citys lowest income neighborhoods on the
east side.
Opponents of the short-term loans often
say the convenience for those who may not
have access to more traditional lending
options is outweighed by fees equivalent to
an annual interest rate of 460 percent that
can perpetuate a cycle of debt.
The idea of regulating payday lending in
Daly City was rst raised in 2011 but the
plan never came to fruition. Mayor David
Canepa, who championed the idea three
years ago, said there was not sufficient
appetite back then but a subcommittee he
appointed this year agrees this is good pol-
icy.
[S]ometimes its not the policy, but
rather just the timing, Canepa said in an
email to the Daily Journal.
The previous effort, though, targeted not
just the locations but the actual loan prod-
ucts. Canepa had proposed allowing short-
term loans up to $500 with a maximum APR
of 18 percent for residents and give users
the ability to build credit by paying off
loans over a period of up to a year. Canepa
also wanted a cap of three loans per person
per year and a nancial education require-
ment for borrowers.
State law and court challenges preempts
the city from targeting the actual loans
which is why this second attempt is focused
on the providers.
In June, the Planning Commission voted
5-0 in favor of the zoning changes but did
raise some questions about regulation. The
business license division will collect new
lenders information but there isnt a way to
stop existing businesses from adding pay-
day loan services.
The commissioners also recommend the
city proactively educate residents about the
pitfalls of payday loans through iers,
brochures and other advocacy.
Canepa agrees and wants to partner with
county nonprots on outreach.
As policymakers we should inform the
public of the exorbitant interest rates which
stem from payday loans, he said.
If the Daly City Council moves ahead, it
joins Redwood City in regulating where the
industry can set up shop. That city bans
check cashing businesses downtown and
some zoning districts and requires a use per-
mit in others. Pacica enacted a two-year
moratorium on them which it has voted to
extend. The city of San Mateo has recently
begun exploring the possibility of regula-
tions, too.
The Daly City Council meets 7 p.m.
Monday, July 14 at City Hall, 333 90th St.,

somewhat antiquated, Fishtrom said.
Novell GroupWise was not friendly
for the web and mobile interface. Many
schools are now going Google Apps
for Education.
The San Mateo Union High,
Milpitas Unied, Portola Valley and
Las Lomitas school districts all use the
free Google Apps service. The
Redwood City Elementary School
District is looking into adopting the
service. There are 35 million students,
teachers and administrators using the
education platform.
Teachers and students can collabo-
rate a lot more online and ofine, he
said. Change is never easy. The
younger teacher population was really
excited and some didnt care. Were
hoping the passwords and everything
sync. I hope people will stay the
course and see the long-term benets.
In addition to the increased collabo-
ration capabilities, the lower cost,
more familiar interface and ease of use
will benet the district, he said.
Other trustees are backing the new
Google Apps system.
My own experience with Google
Apps, albeit limited, has been quite
good, said Trustee Chris Thomsen. I
think Stanford [University] contracted
with Google Apps about two years ago
and things appear to have gone well.
Perhaps more importantly, Ive spo-
ken with a variety of education tech-
nology professionals who are devel-
oping new educational tools that run
on the Google Apps platform. That
work is quite promising.
All students who have access to
Google Apps for Education need to
sign an Acceptable Use Policy.

After being dropped off, many get on
another bus and head right back to where
they started. Once there, they reunite
with their smugglers for another attempt,
taking advantage of a standard practice
that they pay only when they cross suc-
cessfully.
Its a nuisance. Thats all, said Pablo
Hernandez, 50, who lingered in the hall-
way of a shelter in Mexicali, swapping
stories with other migrants after the U.S.
government took him on a ve-hour bus
ride from Tucson, Arizona.
He planned to take a commercial bus to
the Mexican town of Altar to reunite with
his smuggler, who provided a phone
number and said he wouldnt demand his
$3,400 fee until Hernandez made it.
The challenges illustrate the limits and
pitfalls of massive spending increases on
border enforcement.
Despite overwhelming numbers of
Central Americans crossing in Texas, the
Border Patrol is making strides by key
measures, including a drop in the percent-
age of migrants who are arrested entering
the country again after being caught.
The recidivism rate for all migrants
arrested on the Mexican border fell to 16
percent in the 2013 scal year from 17
percent a year earlier, 20 percent in 2011,
24 percent in 2010 and 27 percent in
2009.
But results for ATEP, as the program is
known, were higher: 25 percent last year,
up from 24 percent the previous year,
down from 28 percent the year before, 33
percent in 2010 and 34 percent in 2009.
Last years 9-point difference between
ATEP and the overall rate matched the
widest ever.
ATEP has barely fared better than vol-
untary returns, the term for migrants
who are simply turned around without
being charged. Criminal prosecutions
have yielded the lowest recidivism rates.
Without fanfare, the U.S. Immigration
and Customs Enforcement agency largely
withdrew from ATEPlast June after spend-
ing $15.2 million to y 50,295 Mexican
men on 421 ights from Harlingen,
Texas, to Californias Imperial Valley,
which neighbors Mexicali.
ICE virtually stopped providing deten-
tion space for ATEP and pulled back on
bus transportation.
Thomas Homan, ICEs executive asso-
ciate director for enforcement and
removal operations, told a congressional
panel in March that ATEP was a good
border enforcement strategy but that ICE
shifted money to ying home Central
Americans who cross in South Texas, the
busiest corridor for illegal crossings.
On Tuesday, President Barack Obama
asked Congress for $3.7 billion in emer-
gency spending to deal with that crisis.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection,
which oversees the Border Patrol, said in
a statement that ATEPhas disrupted smug-
gling networks and contributed to an
overall decline in recidivism rates. The
program, it said, was designed speci-
cally to create displacement and increase
time between entry attempts.
Asked to provide the cost, Customs
and Border Protection said ATEP uses
resources that were already in place ... and
cannot be separated from the normal cost
of doing business.
Until last year, ICE typically paid a
night of detention, which cost an average
of $119 a person.
