The San Mateo Union High School
District is sitting on a ticking time bomb
because of three capital appreciation bonds
that will create nearly $1 billion in debt
when they become due in the next several
decades, according to the countys civil
grand jury.
The district, however, takes issue with the
report and said the debt service obligation
is signicantly less.
The countys school districts have 20 out-
standing CABs, of which three raised only
$65 million while generating nearly a half-
billion dollars in debt more than six
times the amount borrowed, the civil grand
jury concluded in its report issued Thursday
afternoon.
Unlike a typical bond which matures in
25 years, CABs can have terms up to 40
years and dont require any payment until
the due date. In the meantime, interest
accrues and compounds which creates a mas-
sive payment at the end and can prove a
challenge to future borrowing. The jury
stated the lengthy maturity also creates a
disconnect between those who borrow the
money and those who pay it back, essen-
tially meaning taxpayers are handing the
nal bill to children and grandchildren who
never voted on the bonds to begin with.
Specically, the jury calls out three bonds
issued by the San Mateo Union High School
District in 2010 and 2011. The bond total
of $190,109,353 will create nearly $1 bil-
lion in debt when they come due between

Children touch the wool theyve just seen sheared from a sheep at Elkus Ranch in Half Moon Bay during its annual Sheep to
Shawl event.The ranch offers ways for children to see the workings of a ranch and how food and bers are produced.
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Of the numerous coastal farms along
the winding hills of Half Moon Bay,
the nonprot Elkus Ranch stands out
as an educational resource.
Children have the opportunity to
learn rst-hand how food and bers are
produced through Elkus Ranchs edible
garden tour and by interacting with
farm animals.
The Richard J. Elkus Ranch was once
a commercial dairy and cattle farm
spanning across 600 acres. In 1975,
Richard J. Elkus donated the facility to
the University of California in hopes
of spreading awareness about the
Sheep to Shawl
Elkus Ranch offers chance to see from where wool, food comes

Speiers first bill
to lower speed limit
Drivers across the country would
have been forced to lower their
speeds in an attempt to save gas if
Congress passed a bill introduced the
week of July 12, 2008 by U.S. Rep.
Jackie Speier, D-San Mateo.
Speier introduced her rst bill,
The Gasoline Savings
and Speed Limit
Reduction Act, which
would have set a
national speed limit at
60 mph in urban areas and 65 on
less-populated stretches of highway.
Speiers introduction of the bill came
on the heels of a similar suggestion
by a Virginia senator the previous
week.
Americans need relief from the ris-
ing cost of gasoline now, Speier
said in a press release that week.
There is no need to wait for the
Organization of the Petroleum
Exporting Countries or the oil com-
panies to help us out. Every driver
can affect change simply by easing
up on their right foot.
City manager resigns
Millbrae City Manager Ralph
Jaeck, 63, announced his resignation
the week of July 12, 2008, after four
years with the city. His last day was
to be Sept. 30, 2008. Jaeck came to
Millbrae in October 2004 during a
time of numerous challenges, particu-
larly nancial.
The citys in good shape, said
Jaeck. Weve had a turnaround.
Adesire to spend more time with
his family inspired the decision
which was a surprise to Mayor Gina
Papan.
Ralph has been a
tremendous asset to the
workings of this city,
she said. He has worked
hard for us and at a signi-
cant personal sacrice in
that he has been separated
from his family. We are sorry to lose
him, but we understand his strong
desire to be with his family. We are
grateful for his dedicated service
these many years. He has been a
great asset to all of us. We will miss
his exceptional skills and his diplo-
macy. I, personally, will miss his
friendship and counsel.
Vacant market site no more
Foodville owners in San Carlos
inked a 30-year lease for the vacant
Bell Market site the week of July 12,
2008, allowing the development of
Bianchinis
Brothers Chris and Kevin
Bianchini, owners of Foodville on
Laurel Street, signed a 30-year lease
that week for Bell Market which
closed in November 2006. The
expanded space gave the family busi-
ness a chance to create a store per-
sonalized for San Carlos.
Bianchinis was the second loca-
tion for the family which opened the
rst in Portola Valley in 1998.
Murder case spans two cities
ATuesday morning shooting in
Millbrae led to the discovery of dead
body Thursday in Burlingame the
week of July 12, 2008.
Jack Chu, 27, of Millbrae,
was found Thursday morning
of that week slumped in a car
parked in a Burlingame
neighborhood near
Broadway. Police were following
multiple leads, but have yet to make
an arrest.
Burlingame police were called to

that week in Millbrae, according to
police.
On Wednesday of that week, police
were called to investigate an early-
morning report of a shooting at
Lincoln Circle in Millbrae.

The victim who died in the six-alarm
blaze that destroyed a Redwood City
apartment building and left nearly 100
people without a home early Sunday
morning has been identied as Darin
Michael Demello-Pine, 48, according
to the San Mateo County Coroners
Ofce.
Pine lived on the third oor in unit
no. 307.
Fire officials are investigating
whether the blaze started in Demello-
Pines apartment and have ruled out
arson saying it was likely an accident,
perhaps from cooking.
The building did not have sprinklers
but an internal re hose that reght-
ers never used.
Demello-Pine was initially unac-
counted for after the building on the
500 block of Woodside Road was evac-
uated early Sunday morning.
Almost 40 hours after the re was
rst reported, re crews were still in
the building knocking out windows
and attending to hot spots as police
diverted trafc away from the area.
Redwood City police, re and of-
cials with the Bureau of Alcohol,
Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives are
investigating the re that has left the
72-unit Hallmark House Apartments
uninhabitable. The building has been
red-tagged by the city.
Tuesday, former residents of the
complex stood in line for a chance to
recover any belongings remaining
from the blaze.
Much of the third oor of the com-
plex was completely destroyed by the
re and the rest of the building suffered
major water and smoke damage.
About 25 residents were briey hos-
pitalized and another 61 were housed at
the evacuation center at the Fair Oaks
Community Center by the Red Cross
following the re.
The countys mobile dental clinic
also helped many re victims get new
dentures that were lost during the re,
said Ann Marie Silvestri, dental direc-
tor at the San Mateo Medical Center.
Many of the residents also have other
dental needs that the mobile dental
clinic assisted them with, she said.

DA: Teacher had child porn at work
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A former science teacher at a private San
Mateo school for children with learning dis-
abilities exchanged online messages with a
14-year-old student about masturbation and
kept at work a CD of pornographic videos of
young boys, according to prosecutors.
Jefferey Michael Hicks, 35, of Campbell,
worked at Stanbridge Academy, a Poplar
Avenue school for students with mild to
moderate learning disabilities. The science
and sex ed teacher was placed on administra-
tive leave after another instructor discov-
ered he was exchanging the inappropriate
Facebook messages with the teen student,
said District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe.
During that time, the school head found
on Hicks desk a CD labeled Jeffs folder
that contained videos of child pornography,
Wagstaffe said.
Hicks was arrested in May and shortly
after posted $100,000 bail.
In court for his initial arraignment
Thursday, Hicks was formally charged with
one felony count of possessing child
pornography and one
misdemeanor count of
annoying a child under
18. He did not enter a plea
and was denied a court-
appointed attorney. He
returns to court Aug. 19 to
either identify his
retained lawyer or for
reconsideration of the
appointed attorney
request.
Ajudge also imposed a three-year no-con-
tact order between Hicks and the alleged vic-
tim.
Aconviction of felony child pornography
carries up to three years prison.
Marilyn Lynch, head of Stanbridge
Academy, did not return a call for comment.
Hicks joined Stanbridge in 2011, accord-
ing to his LinkedIn prole. He is also the
founding artistic director of the nonprot
Actors Theatre Center in Santa Clara.

Man to trial for hammer attack on brother
By Martha Mendoza
TH ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO
Investigators have found no evi-
dence of mechanical problems
with Asiana Flight 214, the head
of the National Transportation
Safety Board said Thursday, put-
ting the focus of the safety probe
into the crash landing at the San
Francisco airport squarely on the
pilots.
In her nal brieng before the
agency concludes its on-site
detective work, NTSB Chairman
Deborah Hersman said the air-
plane itself showed no signs of a
breakdown, and on voice
recorders, the pilots of the Boeing
777 fail to notice that their
approach is dangerously low and
slow until its too late.
There is no mention of speed
until about nine seconds before
impact when theyre at 100 feet,
she said Thursday. Just seconds
before impact, two of the pilots
call for the landing to be aborted.
The airliner itself, though heav-
ily damaged in the crash, had no
malfunctions in any critical sys-
tems, including the engines and
ight-control surfaces, the autopi-
lot, the autothrottles and the ight
director, she said.
During the rst ve days of the
NTSB investigation, Hersman has
said repeatedly that pilots Lee
Gang-kuk, who was landing the
big jet for his rst time at the San
Francisco airport, and Lee Jeong-
Min, who was training him, were
ultimately responsible for a safe
landing.
Investigators have stressed that
nothing has been definitively
ruled out and no rm conclusions
reached. The NTSB team will soon
head back to Washington with a
mountain of information to ana-
lyze and review, from pieces of the
airliner to interview transcripts,
and agencys nal evaluation is
expected to take more than a year.
Two people were killed and 180
of the 307 people on board were
hurt Saturday, most with minor
injuries, when the airliner
slammed into a seawall at the end
of the runway. The impact ripped
off the back of the plane, tossed
out three flight attendants and
their seats and scattered pieces of
the jet across the runway as it spun
and skidded to a stop.
The battered passengers, some
with broken bones, were told over
the jets public-address system to
stay in their seats for another 90
seconds while the cockpit con-
sulted with the control tower, a
safety procedure to prevent people
from evacuating into life-threat-
ening res or machinery.
And in this accident, authorities
are investigating whether one of
the two Chinese teens who died
may have been run over by a re
truck rushing to the burning jet.
A firefighter who scrambled
aboard the jet looking for victims
as fire was breaking out told
inspectors the seats in that sec-
tion of the aircraft were almost
pristine. He said it looked like
you just uff the pillows and turn
the airplane around it can go out
for its next ight said Hersman.
But that section soon erupted in
ames caused by oil spilling on
hot engines, although she said the
fuel tanks did not rupture.
Hersman claried Thursday that
the pilot trainee told investiga-
tors he saw a ash of light at about
500 feet, which would have been
34 seconds before impact and the
point at which the airliner began
to slow and drop precipitously.
She said he told investigators that
the light did not prevent him from
seeing his instruments, and that it
may have been a reection of the
sun. The other pilots made no
mention of a light, she said.
While the pilots were manually
ying the jet for the landing, as
expected on a clear, sunny day,
they told investigators they
thought the airliners speed was
being controlled by an autothrot-
tle set for 157 mph.

Have you ever
attended a funeral
or memorial service
and felt ill-at-ease,
uncomfortable or
awkward when
talking to the family
of the deceased? Have you ever stumbled
through your words and condolences
because you just didnt know what to say or
how to say it? Have you even decided to not
approach the family for fear of saying the
wrong thing or making a fool of yourself? If
so you are not alone. Many people in this
situation want to provide some kind of
comfort to the immediate family, but just
dont have the verbal tools to do so in an
assuring manner.
Learning Funeral Etiquette can be
useful. Using the right words at the right
time is an appropriate way to show that you
care, and in situations like this can be of
great help when provided correctly.
Standard condolences such as I am sorry
for your loss have become routine and
generic. A personalized phrase can be
welcomed such as John touched many
lives or I will miss John. DO NOT ask
the cause of death, offer advice or make
comments that would diminish the
importance of the loss such as Oh, youre
young and can marry again.
Other ways to demonstrate your support
include: 1. Listening. The family may feel
the need to express their anxiety, and giving
them that opportunity can be therapeutic; 2.
An embrace. This can show that you care
without the need for words; 3. Offering your
services. This shows the family that you are
willing to give extra time for them: Please
let me know if there is anything I can do to
help (be prepared to act if needed).
Even if you dont feel confident in
approaching the family there are other ways
to show that you care: 1. Attending the
funeral and signing the Memorial Book will
show the family that you took the time to be
there in support; 2. Dressing appropriately
for the funeral will demonstrate your efforts
to prepare for this special occasion (dark
colors are no longer a requisite for funerals,
but dressing in a coat, tie, dress or other
attire that youd wear to any special event
are considered a way of showing you care);
3. In certain cases friends are invited to
stand up and offer BRIEF personal feelings.
Prior to the funeral write a few key notes
and reflections which will help you organize
your thoughts. Even if there is no
opportunity to speak before a group you
may have a chance to offer your thoughts to
the family following the ceremony; 4. A
personalized card or note will help you
arrange your words better and can be kept
by the family. If you dont have their
mailing address you can send your envelope
to the funeral home and they will forward it
to the next of kin; 5. Providing flowers is a
long time tradition, or making a charitable
donation in the deceaseds memory will give
the family a strong sense of your regards; 6.
If appropriate a brief phone call can show
your immediate concern, but generally this
should be avoided to give the family the
privacy they may need.
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)

Gov.Jerry Brown initially sought to eliminate the states $750 million enterprise zone program,
which he called outdated and inefcient, but later compromised and agreed to revamp the
program after pushback from businesses.
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN DIEGO Gov. Jerry Brown signed
legislation on Thursday overhauling an eco-
nomic development program in an effort to
encourage manufacturing and job growth in
California.
The governor initially sought to elimi-
nate the states $750 million enterprise
zone program, which he called outdated and
inefficient, but later compromised and
agreed to revamp the program after push-
back from businesses.
This legislation will help grow our econ-
omy and create good manufacturing jobs,
Brown said in a statement after he signed
AB93 and SB90 at Takeda California, a
biotech rm, in San Diego.
The bills will extend a sales tax exemp-
tion for manufacturing and research-and-
development equipment for eight years and
provide hiring credits for businesses in
areas with high unemployment rates. The
legislation includes a tax credit to encour-
age businesses to expand and retain jobs in
California.
Local governments opposed the bills out
of worry over losing the economic develop-
ment program, but labor groups and some
businesses backed the changes.
Brown and supporters had said communi-
ties abused the incentive program by pro-
viding unneeded tax breaks to businesses
that pay low wages.
The enterprise zone program represented
some of the worst abuses of taxpayer money
this state has seen, California Labor
Federation Executive Secretary-Treasurer Art
Pulaski said Thursday in a prepared state-
ment. Instead of using taxpayer funds to
create jobs, the broken enterprise zone pro-
gram subsidized strip clubs, card rooms and
big corporations like Walmart.
Craig Johnson, president of the
California Association of Enterprise Zones,
said Brown was making a grave mistake in
signing the bills because the changes effec-
tively phase out a tool to help economical-
ly distressed areas.
Signing these bills eliminates the pro-
gram and greatly affects millions of
Californians who live in these regions as
well as minorities, veterans, displaced
workers, recipients of government assis-
tance and others in need of jobs, Johnson
said in a statement.
More than 12,000
California inmates on hunger strike
SACRAMENTO The number of
California inmates participating in a hunger
strike has dropped sharply, four days into
the protest over prison conditions.
California corrections ofcials say more
than 12,400 prison inmates have skipped at
least nine consecutive meals, a threshold
that led the department to label the protest
an extended hunger strike.
The tally is down from the more than
30,000 inmates who started refusing meals
this week. They are protesting conditions
for gang members held in solitary conne-
ment at Pelican Bay State Prison near
Eureka.
Additionally, more than 1,300 inmates
are refusing to go to work or classes, down
from about 2,300 on Monday.
The department said Thursday those par-
ticipating could face disciplinary action.
Corrections ofcials also threatened to con-
scate food some inmates have stockpiled
in their cells.
Two separate hunger strikes in 2011
involved between 4,000 and 6,500 inmates.
Stop frying eggs,
Death Valley officials say
DEATH VALLEY NATIONAL PARK It
gets so hot in Death Valley that you can fry
an egg with sun power.
Thats what one Death Valley National
Park employee did last week, when she took
a frying pan to the pavement and posted the
video online.
Park visitors park were quick to imitate
her, but they didnt use skillets and left
gooey messes. The park then issued a plea
on its Facebook page to crack down on the
egg-frying asco.
Death Valley highs have been hovering
around 120 degrees, and on Wednesday the
park marked the 100th anniversary of the
worlds hottest day on record 134 degrees
set there in 1913.
Park rangers say the egg frying has since
stopped due to rain and clouds that have
rolled across Death Valley.

Bald eagle chick
discovered in San Mateo County
Abald eagle has hatched and is learning to
y in San Mateo County.
The chick was rst spotted in early June in
a nest about 100 feet up a tree near Crystal
Springs Reservoir.
The San Francisco Public Utilities
Commission, which owns the watershed
surrounding the reservoir, says the eagle
took its rst tentative ight from the nest in
the rst week of July.
Since then the bird, which already has a
three-foot wingspan, has edged, or started
ying.
Watershed keeper Tim Sullivan says near-
by residents should expect to see the eagle
testing out its wings soon.
Sullivan says the chick will likely remain
in the same area as its parents for up to year.
10,000 pot plants found
in Santa Clara County
GILROY Authorities say theyve found
10,000 marijuana plants growing in a
Northern California state park.
The plants were found Wednesday in a
canyon inside Henry Coe State Park near
Gilroy. The operation was rst located in
June.
The Santa Clara County sheriffs ofce
says the farm probably was operated by a
Mexican drug cartel.
State and local authorities also found two
.22-caliber pellet ries.
Since 2006, the sheriffs ofce has been
involved in four ofcer-involved shootings
during pot-eradication operations on public
lands.

Reid, McConnell clash
harshly over nominations
WASHINGTON Triggering an
unusually personal clash,
Democrats threatened Thursday to
change Senate rules unilaterally if
Republicans block yes-or-no
votes on several of President
Barack Obamas top-level nomi-
nees, including some long in con-
rmation limbo.
Aseries of showdown votes was
set for next week on seven
appointees. But in classic Senate
fashion, as the rhetoric grew more
intense, the two sides constructed
an escape hatch in the form of a
rare private meeting set for
Monday evening where all 100
senators can seek a compromise
out of public view.
Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-
Nev., set the days events in
motion with a searing speech
accusing Republicans of trying to
deny Obama the right to have his
team in place. In a chamber where
senators routinely refer to one
another as my distinguished
friend, he accused the Republican
leader, Sen. Mitch McConnell, of
failing to live up to his commit-
ments to allow votes on all but the
most extraordinary circumstances.
Moments later, McConnell said
Reid was misquoting him and at
the same time failing to honor his
own word not to change the rules
of the Senate unilaterally. To do so
would be a violation of minority
rights, he warned, subject to be
repeated by any majority in the
future. When the drafters of the
Constitution gave the Senate the
power of advice and consent on
nominations, he said, I dont
think they had in mind sit down
and shut up.
Obamas ATF nomination

WASHINGTON President
Barack Obamas nomination of B.
Todd Jones to lead the Bureau of

mentary school where 20 children

SANFORD, Fla. In an unmis-
takable setback for George
Zimmerman, the jury at the neigh-
borhood watch captains second-
degree murder trial was given the
option Thursday of convicting
him on the lesser charge of
manslaughter in the shooting of
17-year-old Trayvon Martin.
Judge Debra Nelson issued her
ruling over the objections of
Zimmermans lawyers shortly
before a prosecutor delivered a
closing argument in which he por-
trayed the defendant as an aspiring
police ofcer who assumed Martin
was up to no good and took the law
into his own hands.
A teenager is dead. He is dead
through no fault of his own,
prosecutor Bernie de la Rionda
told the jurors. He is dead because
a man made assumptions. ...
Unfortunately because his
assumptions were wrong, Trayvon
Benjamin Martin no longer walks
this Earth.
Because of the judges ruling,
the six jurors will have three
options when they start delibera-
tions as early as Friday: guilty of
second-degree murder, guilty of
manslaughter and not guilty.
Zimmerman attorney Don West
had argued an all-or-nothing strat-
egy, saying the only charge that
should be put before the jury is
second-degree murder.
The state has charged him
with second-degree murder. They
should be required to prove it,
West said. If they had wanted to
charge him with manslaughter
... they could do that.
To win a second-degree murder
conviction, prosecutors must
prove Zimmerman showed ill will,
hatred or spite a burden the
defense has argued the state failed
to meet.

WASHINGTON More than
150 people face federal and state
charges after authorities disrupted
online wildlife trafcking opera-
tions involving tiger, leopard and
jaguar pelts, elephant ivory and
live birds.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service announced the arrests
Thursday after an undercover oper-
ation that included ofcers from
16 states, three federal agencies
and three Asian countries.
Items seized under Operation
Wild Web include the pelts of
endangered big cats such as the
Sumatran tiger, leopard and jaguar;
live migratory birds such as the
California scrub jay; whale teeth;
elephant and walrus ivory; and a
zebra pelt.
Our message is clear and sim-
ple: The Internet is not an open
marketplace for protected
species, said Edward Grace,
deputy assistant director for law
enforcement for the Fish and
Wildlife Service.
Working with counterparts in
California, Texas, New York,
Florida and Alaska and other
states, federal officials targeted
illegal wildlife sellers who oper-
ate through Craigslist, eBay and
other Internet marketplaces and
classied ads. Wildlife ofcers in
Singapore, Thailand and
Indonesia ran similar operations
at the same time.
The items were seized last
August, although charges are still
being brought in many cases. Six
Southern California residents were
charged Thursday with selling
endangered species and animal
parts, the U.S. Attorneys Ofce in
Los Angeles said.
As a major platform for the
illicit trade in wildlife, the
Internet has become a dangerous
place for animals, said Jeff
Flocken, North American regional
director for the International Fund
for Animal Welfare, an advocacy
group that worked with the federal
task force.
Wildlife crimes are not only
harmful to endangered species,
they also pose serious threats to
national and global security,
Flocken said.
Illegal wildlife trade generates
an estimated $19 billion a year
worldwide and ranks fourth on the
list of the most lucrative global
illegal activities behind nar-
cotics, counterfeiting and human
trafficking, the animal welfare
group said in a report last year.

Reporters notebook
By Adam Goldman
WASHINGTON Conned to the base-
ment of a CIA secret prison in Romania
about a decade ago, Khalid Sheikh
Mohammed, the admitted mastermind of the
9/ 11 terrorist attacks, asked his jailers
whether he could embark on an unusual proj-
ect: Would the spy agency allow
Mohammed, who had earned his bachelors
in mechanical engineering, to design a vac-
uum cleaner?
The agency ofcer in charge of the prison
called CIA headquarters and a manager
approved the request, a former senior CIA
ofcial told the Associated Press.
Mohammed had endured the most brutal of
the CIAs harsh interrogation methods and
had confessed to a career of atrocities. But
the agency had no long-term plan for him.
Someday, he might prove useful again.
Perhaps, hed even stand trial one day.
And for that, hed need to be sane.
We didnt want them to go nuts, the for-
mer senior CIA ofcial said, one of several
who spoke on condition of anonymity
because they were not authorized to talk
about the now-shuttered CIA prisons or
Mohammeds interest in vacuums.
So, using schematics
from the Internet as his
guide, Mohammed began
re-engineering one of the
most mundane of house-
hold appliances.
That the CIA may be in
possession of the worlds
most highly classified
vacuum cleaner blue-
prints is but one peculiar,
lasting byproduct of the
controversial U.S. detention and interroga-
tion program.
By the CIAs own account, the programs
methods were designed to psychologically
dislocate people. But once interrogations
stopped, the agency had to try to undo the psy-
chological damage inicted on the detainees.
In Romania, the prison provided books
for detainees to read. Mohammed, former
officials said, enjoyed the Harry Potter
series. The CIA apparently succeeded in
keeping him sane. He appears to be in good
health, according to military records.
Others havent fared as well. Accused al-
Qaida terrorists Ramzi Binalshibh and Abd
al-Nashiri, who were also locked up in
Poland and Romania with Mohammed, have
had mental issues.

Agree with Dorothy, mostly
Editor,
I agree with most of Dorothy
Dimitres column Faith-based? in
the July 10 edition of the Daily
Journal. As a gay man, I have a dif-
ferent view of the Pride flag. I also
have thought about the appropriate-
ness of the flag at government
buildings, but I wonder the same
thing when I see flags/banners etc.
for the 49ers or the Giants which are
profit-making private organiza-
tions. The Pride flag is about civil
rights for a segment of our popula-
tion. Until our faith-based Supreme
Court ensures the equal civil rights
of all citizens, the Pride flag and the
equal rights campaign will be neces-
sary. Fortunately, in California, the
transition to equality after 44 years
of enormous effort and legal expense
by equal rights advocates of every
orientation is happening. My part-
ner and I picked up our marriage
license and will complete that por-
tion of our journey later this month
on his 80th birthday.
As for the in-your-face parade,
the answer is, dont go. I dont
because the parade has been co-opted
by politicians and corporations who
want to sell something. The parade
has become like Mardi Gras, an
excuse for one hell-of-a-party and
will likely live on in that mode
because it brings an awful lot of
people with money to the city and is
very good for business.
The problem in Richmond is not
the flag but the faith-based igno-
rant, an epidemic problem in this
country, and thus the need for the
flag and continued legal action by
equal rights advocates.

Zimmerman guilty
until proven innocent?
Editor,
There are some who believe so
passionately Zimmerman was not
acting in self defense when he killed
Trayvon Martin. An example of this
is Jorg Aadahls July 10 letter to the
editor, The Zimmerman case. Mr.
Aadahls stated, What difference
does it make who cried for help dur-
ing the fight between George
Zimmerman and his murder victim,
Trayvon Martin? I dont recall Mr.
Aadahl being on the jury for this
case.
Last year on a television news
program, a baseless assertion was
spoken by U.S. Rep. Frederica
Wilson, D-Fla., She essentially
said, Im going to say it like it is.
Trayvon was hunted down like a
rabid dog. He was shot in the street.
He was racially profiled. I could
cite other examples of those who
proclaim Zimmerman guilty, but I
think Frederica Wilsons statement
is sufficient.
Mr. Aadahls and Ms. Wilsons
statements bring to mind Proverbs
18:17, New American Standard
Bible: The first to plead his case
seems right, until another comes and
examines him.

could be added to this discussion;
however, the electorate should zero
in and research more about her back-
ground.
Jack Kirkpatrick
Redwood City
Letters to the editor
W
hen a six-alarm re broke
out in Redwood City early
Sunday morning, the
emergency response was fast and
thorough. With nearly 100 people left
homeless, that response soon trans-
formed into an ongoing support sys-
tem that gathered resources from mul-
tiple sources.
Many of the people who lived at the
Hallmark House Apartments receive
some form of public assistance and
cant just check the want ads for a new
place to live.
And so the countys Human Service
Agency and housing ofcials jumped
to action to ensure no one falls
through the cracks. Staff from
Supervisor Warren Slocums ofce
also offered assistance as Slocums
district is focused on the area of the
re. For this week, residents were
sheltered at the National Guard
Armory and provided assistance by
the American Red Cross. That is not a
permanent solution and many will be
provided with motel vouchers until
permanent housing is located.
In the meantime, residents were
allowed a few minutes to gather their
belongings from the re site and have
received assistance from multiple
sources. This week, free socks and
shoes were lined up near the re site
while residents collected their
belongings and the Legal Aid Society
offered help with basic issues such as
getting their rent deposits back and
the remainder of their rent for the
month. One of the rst items of busi-
ness after the re was ensuring that
displaced residents could get replace-
ment prescription medication right
away. Another matter of importance
was nding a way to have mail deliv-
ered to displaced residents.
There is support available and,
while it is not perfect, there are plen-
ty of people willing to provide assis-
tance. The real task involves continu-
ing that assistance after the cleanup is
nished, the town hall meetings are
over and the motel vouchers have run
their course. The emergency Red
Cross shelter at the Armory is closing
today and the Client Service Center is
moving to the North Fair Oaks
Community Center on Monday.
The emergency response was quick,
and the secondary social service
response was also quick. Slocum said
he was impressed with how fast coun-
t y, nonprot and Redwood City of-
cials mobilized to offer assistance.
But once the urry of activity settles,
the real work really begins and county
ofcials, including Slocum, said they
will continue to work on it.
They still need help, Slocum said.
The residents may not feel like it,
but many are lucky to still be alive
and have the assistance they are
receiving. Its a tough road but, as
long as that support is there, they
wont be going it alone. It also
brings to mind the adage, there but
for the grace of God go I.
After the fire
Morsis overthrow
The Jerusalem Post
T
he speed of Mohammed Morsis fall, just a year
after his dramatic rise to power, underlines the
unpredictability of Egyptian politics. For Israel
there are both dangers and opportunities in the wake of
Morsis ouster.
The renewed dominance of the military could be a pos-
itive development for Israel. It is, after all, the military
that monopolizes force and is a stabilizing factor.
It was the Egyptian military, for instance, that was
instrumental in bringing about the cease-fire between
Israel and Hamas last November. It is the military that
seems most likely to protect the Camp David peace
agreement between Israel and Egypt. And it is the mili-
tary that has a vested interest and the capabilities to
maintain control in the near lawless Sinai Peninsula.
The humbling of the Muslim Brotherhoods seemingly
inexorable expansion not just in Egypt but also in
Tunisia and potentially in Syria and perhaps even in
Jordan is another positive development, at least in the
short term.
The U.S. could make its continued economic support
conditional upon concrete headway toward building a
more democratic, pluralistic government that does more
to defend embattled minorities such as the Coptic
Christian community and the smaller Bahai and Shiite
populations. More thought should be given to saving
Egypts catatonic economy. And aid in the form of both
funding and political know-how should be provided to
help harness the energies expended on the streets of
Cairo and channel them into political parties and insti-
tutions.
Unrest in Egypt has generated much unpredictability
and the potential for instability and even disaster.
Morsis fall, however, also presents new opportuni-
ties and can lead to positive developments in the Middle
Easts most populous country, and in the region in gen-
eral.
The outcome depends, at least in part, on the U.S.s
response.
The Korea Herald, Seoul, South Korea
T
he crash of Asiana Airlines Boeing 777 jet at
San Francisco International Airport is a wake-up
call for the Korean aviation industry, which
enjoys a good global reputation for safety.
In the mid-1990s, Koreas two flag carriers Asiana
and its bigger rival Korean Air suffered a string of
fatal incidents, which led to a downgrading of the
nations aviation safety rating in 1999.
The humiliation prompted the Seoul government to
undertake a comprehensive reform of its aviation regula-
tory system. It revised aviation laws, increased the num-
ber of government inspectors and enlisted the assis-
tance of the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration to
meet international safety standards.
The two airlines also made painstaking efforts to
upgrade their safety culture. For instance, Korean Air
invited two U.S. experts to help improve its safety
standards.
Thanks to these efforts, Korea had no fatal air crashes
for 12 years between 1999 and 2011. The long streak
was broken when an Asiana freighter crashed in waters
off the coast of Jejudo Island two years ago.
In 2008, the International Civil Aviation
Organization ranked Koreas aviation safety standards,
including its pilot training and maintenance, as the
highest among its 191 member countries.
This outstanding track record might have fostered a
dangerous sense of complacency among airline compa-
nies and regulators.
For flights to dangerous airports, they need to arrange
preflight sessions for the flight and cabin crew to alert
them to the obstacles and ensure that they follow safe
landing and takeoff procedures.
Carriers should take it to heart that safety comes
before anything else. It only takes one accident to wipe
out years of hard effort to establish a reputation as a safe
carrier.

Big movers

NEWYORK Call it the Bernanke
Boost.
The stock market, which has been
marching higher for a week, got extra
fuel Thursday after Federal Reserve
Chairman Ben Bernanke said the cen-
tral bank will keep supporting the
economy.
The Dow Jones industrial average
and Standard & Poors 500 surged to
all-time highs. And the yield on the
10-year Treasury note continued to
decline as investors bought bonds.
Stocks that benet most from a con-
tinuation of low interest rates, such as
homebuilders, notched some of the
biggest gains.
The chairman made the comments in
a speech late Wednesday after U.S.
markets had closed, saying the econo-
my needs the Feds easy-money policy
for the foreseeable future.
The U.S. economy needs help
because unemployment is high,
Bernanke said. His remarks seemed to
ease investors fears that the central
bank will pull back on its economic
stimulus too quickly. The Fed is cur-
rently buying $85 billion a month in
bonds to keep interest rates low and to
encourage spending and hiring.
Stock index futures rose overnight.
Stocks surged when the market opened
Thursday and stayed high for the rest
of the day.
The Fed has made it unequivocally
clear that they are not in any hurry to
do anything, said Alec Young, Global
Equity Strategist at S&P Capital IQ.
Its very bullish for stocks.
The S&P 500 index jumped 22.40
points, or 1.4 percent, to 1,675.02,
surpassing its previous record close of
1,669 from May 21. The index rose
for a sixth straight day, its longest
streak in four months.
The Dow rose 169.26 points, or 1.1
percent, to 15,460.92, above its own
all-time closing high of 15,409 set
May 28.
The Nasdaq composite rose 57.55
points, or 1.4 percent, to 3,578.30,
its highest level in nearly 13 years.
In government bond trading, the
yield on the 10-year Treasury note fell
to 2.57 percent from 2.63 percent
Wednesday. The yield was as high as
2.74 percent Friday after the govern-
ment reported strong hiring in June.
Many traders took that report as a sig-
nal that the Fed would be more likely
to slow its bond purchases sooner
rather than later.
The Fed has also said it plans to
keep short-term rates at record lows,
at least until unemployment falls to
6.5 percent. Bernanke emphasized
Wednesday that the level of unem-
ployment is a threshold, not a trigger.
The central bank might decide to keep
its benchmark short-term rate near
zero even after unemployment falls
that low.
Its back to the old accommodative
Fed, so the markets are happy again,
said Randy Frederick, managing direc-
tor of active trading and derivatives at
the Schwab Center for Financial
Research.
The market pulled back last month
after Bernanke laid out a timetable for
the Fed to wind down its bond-buying
program. He said the central bank
would likely ease back on its monthly
purchases if the economy strength-
ened sufciently.
On Thursday, Advanced Micro
Devices Inc. was the biggest gainer in
the S&P 500 after news that the com-
pany will make chips for two big gam-
ing devices. The stock rose 47 cents,
or 11.8 percent, to $4.45.
Homebuilders, which are sensitive
to the outlook for interest rates, were
also among top gainers.
Stocks surge after Bernanke allays taper fear

NEWYORK June sales heated up for
stores, in a sign that Americans likely
will continue to spend during the impor-
tant back-to-school shopping season.
U.S. retailers reported their strongest
sales gains since January, as shoppers,
enticed by warm weather and an improv-
ing economy, took advantage of summer
discounts.
Revenue at stores opened at least a year
- an industry measure of a retailers
health - rose 4.1 percent in June com-
pared with the same month a year ago,
according to a preliminary tally of 13
retailers by the International Council of
Shopping Centers. The mall trade group
had expected an increase of 3 to 3.5 per-
cent.
The data, released Thursday, offers pos-
itive signs for the back-to-school sea-
son, which is the second-biggest shop-
ping period behind the winter holidays.
June is when stores clear out summer
merchandise to make room for goods for
fall, so brisk sales mean that stores like-
ly wont be stuck with piles of summer
shorts and T-shirts that they need to get
rid of as the back-to-school kicks off
later this month.
Retailers report strong gains for June
Microsoft reboots
with sweeping reorganization
SAN FRANCISCO Microsoft Corp. has
decided its entire business needs a new oper-
ating system.
CEO Steve Ballmer is restructuring the
company to cope with a quickening pace of
technological change that has left the
worlds largest software maker a step behind
its two biggest rivals, Apple and Google.
In an effort to catch up, Microsoft is dis-
mantling a management structure that sepa-
rated the company into sometimes disjoint-
ed divisions and hatching a more cohesive
product line-up. The new set up revolves
around software, devices and services con-
necting those devices to applications stored
in remote data centers a concept that has
become known as cloud computing.
The move comes amid a lukewarm
response to the latest version of
Microsofts flagship Windows operating
system and a steady decline in demand for
personal computers as people increasingly
rely on more convenient smartphones and
tablets.
U.S. airlines on-time
rating drops again in May
Summer travelers should pack plenty of
patience: More ights are running late this
year than in 2012.
The U.S. Department of Transportation
says that only 79.4 percent of domestic
ights arrived on time in May, down from
83.4 percent in the same month last year.
Hawaiian Airlines was most likely to
arrive on-time, while American Eagle, the
regional-flying affiliate of American
Airlines, had the worst rate.
Five planes were stuck on airport tarmacs
for more than three hours, which is longer
than allowed by federal regulations.
Cancelations ticked up slightly from a year
ago.
U.S. unemployment benefit
applications rise to 360K
WASHINGTON The number of people
applying for U.S. unemployment benet s
rose 16,000 last week to a seasonally
adjusted 360,000, although the level
remains consistent with steady hiring.
The Labor Department said Thursday that
the less volatile four-week average
increased 6,000 to 351,750.
The weekly applications data can be
volatile in July because some automakers
briey shut down their factories to prepare
for new models and many schools close.
Those factors can create a temporary spike
in layoffs.

Caada College athletic director Mike
Garcia announced Thursday the school had
hired Mike Reynoso to become the new
mens basketball coach.
Reynoso take over for Matt Stanley who,
after two years with the Colts, headed down
Interstate 280 to take over the Foothill
College mens basketball program.
It was a whirlwind week. Reynoso said
Stanley left for the Foothill job the rst
week of July. Reynoso interviewed the
position Wednesday and
found out Thursday morn-
ing he got the gig.
Its good to be back at
the helm of a program,
said Reynoso, a 2002
graduate of Serra. Ive
missed it the last two
years. Its a great spot. I
really understand what
Caada means to the
community.
After a four-year stint at Woodside High
ended following the 2010-11 season,
Reynoso has spent the last two years as an
assistant with the Colts. Reynoso believes
his local connections will help him bring
in the right players to t his vision of
toughness, physicalness and discipline.
I know how to lead people. I know what
I want to do. Ive run a program before,
Reynoso said. I know what my base phi-
losophy is because I did it for four years at
Woodside.
The base philosophy is playing a physi-
cal style. Thats part of who I am. Thats def-
initely going to be ingrained in our philos-
ophy.
Working in Reynosos favor is the fact he
has already been on the recruiting trail as an
assistant so he wont be as far behind the
recruiting curve as a brand-new-to-the-area
coach.
I denitely think the recruiting (aspect)
had a big deal to do with it (getting the
job), Reynoso said. Plus my local con-
nections (from) playing and coaching
around here.
I have feelers out to a lot of guys. try-
ing to get guys who I havent heard from in

Americas Cup challengers Emirates TeamNew Zealand, above, and Italys Luna Rossa have been at odds with the regatta director over
proposed safety changes.
By Bernie Wilson
Tensions in the troubled Americas Cup
could be easing after an international jury
sided with challengers from New Zealand
and Italy in their arguments that regatta
director Iain Murray overstepped his author-
ity in making rules changes following the
fatal capsize of a third challengers catama-
ran two months ago.
One promising sign was that Italys Luna
Rossa ended its boycott and headed onto
San Francisco Bay on Thursday to sail
around the course alone and collect its rst
point of the Louis Vuitton Cup for chal-
lengers.
Luna Rossas scheduled opponent,
Swedens Artemis Racing, remains a no-
show while it works to get its second boat
up to speed following the capsize on May 9
that killed Andrew Bart Simpson and
destroyed its rst boat.
Simpsons death led Murray to make 37
safety recommendations. Among them was
a highly technical change to the winglets
on the rudders of the fast, space-age boats.
The Kiwis and Italians protested, saying the
changes were more about performance than
safety.
The syndicates said their boats were
designed and built under the old rules and
they didnt have time to build new rudders
and, perhaps more importantly, test them.
They also said they felt the change gave an
advantage to defending champion Oracle
Team USA, which doesnt have to race until

So much for Puig-mania sweeping the
country. Give this contest to Atlanta rst
baseman Freddie Freeman.
Freeman and Toronto reliever Steve
Delabar won the fan voting for the nal
spots in next weeks All-Star game, mean-
ing Los Angeles Dodgers sensation Yasiel
Puig is likely headed for a
few days off after a terric
stretch to begin his major
league career.
Freeman set a record
with 19.7 million votes,
and Puig was second.
Major League Baseball
did not release the vote
total for Puig, but did say
the Cuban defector also
surpassed the previous
record for the nal vote of
15.6 million for Shane Victorino in 2009.
Its unbelievable, Freeman said. Im
kind of speechless. I wouldnt be here with-
out the fans and I just saw that its 19.7 mil-
lion votes. Its incredible and its just a
dream come true.
Freeman was taking ground balls during
batting practice before Atlantas home game
against Cincinnati on Thursday night when
general manager Frank Wren called him over
and told him about his rst All-Star selec-
tion. The slugger is batting .307 with nine
homers and 56 RBIs in 78 games.
I never, ever thought that I would make
one, Freeman said. I just wanted to get to
the big leagues and when I got here I just
wanted to win ballgames. All-Star games
were not on my mind.
To win this is just beyond me.
Puig will not get to play in the July 16
game at Citi Field unless he is added as an
injury replacement. The outelder is batting

And while most teenagers ready them-

Sanders completed the Couer dAlene

NEW YORK Derek Jeter was
back, and the New York Yankees
felt a whole lot better.
The Yankees captain singled on
his rst pitch of the season, scored
a run and went 1 for 4 with an RBI
groundout in his return from a
nine-month layoff to help New
York beat the Kansas City Royals
8-4 Thursday for a four-game series
split.
Andy Pettitte (7-6) settled down
after another shaky rst inning to
win consecutive starts for the rst
time since April, and Lyle Overbay
hit a go-ahead, two-run single in a
four-run fifth against Ervin
Santana (5-6) as New York over-
came a 3-0 decit.
Jeter was the designated hitter
and batted second in his rst big
league game since he broke his left
ankle during the AL championship
series opener Oct. 13. He said after
the initial injury he would return
by opening day, then fractured the
ankle again in April during his
rehabilitation and missed the rst
91 games of the season.
New York cut short the 39-year-
old shortstops rehabilitation
assignment in the minor leagues
after just four games following
injuries Wednesday night to Travis
Hafner and Brett Gardner.
Jeter turned on a 95 mph fastball
in the rst and sent a three-hopper
up the third-base line that fell from
Miguel Tejadas throwing hand.
Jeter didnt acknowledge the crowd
of 40,381, which chanted De-rek
Je-ter! De-rek Je-ter! as he ran up
the line well past rst base, then
returned to the bag.
Jeters ankle got more tests
when he raced to third on
Robinson Canos single up the
middle and came home without a
throw on Vernon Wells sacrice
y to right.
The Yankees all-time hits leader
grounded out in the second and
again in the fth, when second
baseman Johnny Giavotella made
a diving stop to prevent an RBI
single. Jeter hit a sharp grounder
to shortstop with the ineld in dur-
ing the sixth. Alcides Escobar
bobbled the ball as Luis Cruz
scored from third, and Jeter was
thrown out as he jogged up the
rst-base line.
Jeter had not been introduced at
Yankee Stadium by Bob
Sheppards recording in 271 days,
since he sprawled onto his stom-
ach while trying to eld Jhonny
Peraltas 12th-inning grounder up
the middle, immobile on the
ineld dirt and yelled out in pain.
He hobbled off the eld on his
good ankle, one arm draped around
manager Joe Girardi and the other
around trainer Steve Donahue.
Yankees general manager Brian
Cashman made the decision to
bring back Jeter when he was driv-
ing home after New Yorks 8-1 win
Wednesdays and spoke with Jeter
by phone. Jeter went 1 for 9 in his
tuneup at Triple-A
Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, including
0 for 3 with a throwing error dur-
ing seven innings Wednesday
night.
I think its easy to say that you
would expect with his age and a
double break that I think hed lose
a step or two or half a step, but I
think hes moving extremely well
from what Im told, Cashman
said.
Girardi said Jeter is likely to
start at shortstop for Fridays
series opener against Minnesota.
I think Derek would run himself
out there the next 70 games if it
was up to him, Girardi said. I
mean, thats just who he is. He
expects to play every day. So from
that standpoint I think we have to
guard against rushing him back
too much, and we have to pick
days off, and we have to pick DH
days. In the perfect world, you
have a month of spring training,
but this has not been a perfect
world around here this year.
Jeter did not speak with
reporters before the game.
A 13-time All-Star with a .313
career average, Jeter hopes to jolt
a batting order that is next to last
in runs in the AL. The Yankees
started Thursday fourth in the AL
East at 49-42.
Six players have appeared at
shortstop in his absence, hitting a
combined .211 with two homers
and 25 RBIs, according to STATS.
Only Seattle shortstops had a
lower batting average.
New York hopes to get third
baseman Alex Rodriguez back this
month following January hip sur-
gery and center fielder Curtis
Granderson next month after his
broken pinkie has healed. First
baseman Mark Teixeira is out for
the season following wrist sur-
gery.
Rodriguez began Thursday 2 for
15 (.133) with one RBI in six
minor league games for Tampa and
Charleston, both Class A farm
teams.

SALTLAKE CITY Aman who allegedly
offered two Belize players large sums of
money to x a CONCACAF Gold Cup match
against the United States has been identied
by soccer ofcials, and hes believed to
have tried to x matches in other countries.
In a statement Thursday, CONCACAF said
it and FIFA, soccers world governing body,
are investigating the bribery allegations
made by Ian Gaynair and Woodrow West.
The two players said they rejected the offer,
made Sunday, and immediately reported it.
When a CONCACAF representative showed
them a photo of a man being monitored for
trying to x matches in other countries, the
Belize players conrmed it was the same
man who had approached them.
So this isnt just about our country or a
one-time thing, coach Ian Mork said after
the teams practice. This is something
much bigger.
Belize lost to the United States 6-1 on
Tuesday night in the Jaguars rst Gold Cup
appearance. It faces Costa Rica here on
Saturday night, and nishes Group C play
next Tuesday with a game against Cuba in
East Hartford, Conn.
CONCACAF, which is the federation of
North and Central American and Caribbean
nations, said it could not comment further
on the ongoing investigation. But Mork
said he doesnt believe the players were
asked to fix any other games beside
Tuesdays match against the U.S.
Match xing is a global problem in soc-
cer, with FIFA estimating that xers make
more than $5 billion in prots each year
from manipulating matches across all
sports. Stopping it is a priority, and CON-
CACAF said in its statement that, together
with FIFA and Interpol, it had three semi-
nars with its member associations in recent
months focusing on educating, identifying
and preventing match manipulation.

OAKLAND The Golden State Warriors
are a team that the most sought-after free
agents have avoided for most of the last two
decades, nothing more than loveable losers
with a faithful following and an ambiguous
name on the NBAmap.
Maybe no more.
Owner Joe Lacob, general manager Bob
Myers, assistant GM Kirk Lacob and coach
Mark Jackson already had started the
process of turning around the futile fran-
chise with last seasons playoff run. The
foursome saw the latest evolution when
they met with free agent Andre Iguodala and
his agent, Rob Pelinka, in his Los Angeles
ofce on July 1 the rst day of free
agency.
Before we could say too much, he was
telling us how much he admired our team, he
admired our coach and our players, Myers
said. We said, Do we have to sell you on
anything? He said, Look, I feel like this
is the place I want to
play. That moment was a
transformative moment
for our franchise.
That new perception is
nally reality.
The Warriors introduced
Iguodala at the teams
downtown Oakland head-
quarters Thursday, nearly
a week after he agreed to a
four-year, $48 million deal despite more
lucrative offers. Golden State believes
Iguodalas arrival puts the franchise on new
footing, going from a stopping point for
middling free agents to a desirable destina-
tion among the NBAs most prized players.
Iguodala said he wanted to come to the
Bay Area because he can connect with the
franchises vision. He got a glimpse of that
last season when the Warriors knocked out
his Denver team in the rst round of the
playoffs.
The experience left Iguodala wanting to
play with smart big men such as Andrew
Bogut and David Lee, promising rookie
Harrison Barnes and sharpshooters Klay
Thompson and Stephen Curry, whom he
jokingly said is like the second coming of
Jesus Christ. Hes like the most loved man
on earth right now.
I think they were missing one piece,
Iguodala said. And hopefully I can be that
piece to get that team to where we all want
to be, which is to try and win a champi-
onship.
Just the process of bringing Iguodala to
Golden State showed the commitment from
both sides.
The Warriors entered free agency with lit-
tle wiggle room. Keeping their own free
agents Jarrett Jack and Carl Landry, who
inked deals with Cleveland and Sacramento,
respectively seemed improbable.
Signing top-tier talent? Almost laughable.
Pelinka, who worked alongside Myers for
years as an agent, approached the Warriors
about Iguodala. At first, Myers never
thought the Warriors could make a deal hap-
pen.

SAN DIEGO Pablo Sandoval hit his rst
home run since May 21, and All-Star
Madison Bumgarner settled down to allow
just four hits in seven innings as the San
Francisco Giants beat the San Diego Padres
4-2 Thursday night in a matchup of the worst
teams in the weak NLWest.
The defending World Series champion
Giants, who snapped a four-game losing
streak, have been in a free-fall since June
15. They had lost 19 of 24 games coming in
and were a season-high 10 games under
.500. They started the night two percentage
points behind the Padres and ended it by
jumping past San Diego into fourth place.
Bumgarner (10-5) allowed two runs on
three hits in the rst inning and then retired
14 in a row before Carlos Quentin singled
with two outs in the sixth. The lefty struck
out six and walked one.
The Giants are 2-8 in July, with Bumgarner
getting both wins. Sergio Romo pitched the
ninth for his 21st save in 24 chances.
The Padres have lost 16 of 19.
Sandoval got San Franciscos weak
offense going in the fourth with a leadoff
homer to right-center off Jason Marquis, his
ninth.
It was Sandovals rst homer in 101 at-
bats. Sandoval, who was on the disabled list
from June 9-24 with a strained left foot, was
6 of 55 (.109) before that at-bat.
The Giants had the bases loaded three
times in the sixth and seventh innings but
scored only one run.
Marquis took a 2-1 lead into the sixth and
struck out Buster Posey leading off the
inning before loading the bases and allow-
ing Kensuke Tanakas RBI single up the mid-
dle. Marquis made way for Joe Thatcher, who
got Brandon Crawford to hit into a force at
the plate. Dale Thayer came on and struck out
Bumgarner to end the inning.
The Giants loaded the bases again in the
seventh on two singles and a hit batsman,
and Thayer again got out of trouble by strik-
ing out Belt to end it.
San Francisco nally broke through in the
eighth with two runs and three hits off Luke
Gregerson (4-5), including an RBI double by
Blanco that bounced over the fence in left,
and Poseys RBI single to left.
Bumgarner settled down after a rough rst
inning in which he allowed two runs on
three hits. Quentin hit an RBI double and,
after Jesus Guzman was intentionally walked
to load the bases, Kyle Blanks drove in a run
on a elders choice. Bumgarner got Logan
Forsythe to line out to second to end the
inning.
Marquis failed for the fth time to get his
10th victory. He allowed two runs and seven
hits in 5 1-3 innings, struck out three and
walked two.

The San Mateo Slammers 10-under B soft-
ball team will be going to the Western
National Championships in Peoria, Ariz. to
represent Northern California.
The girls from San Mateo are having an
extremely successful season. They started
off their season winning the Jan
McPhearson Memorial Tournament over
Memorial Day weekend going 6-0 in the
process. The following weekend they took
Davis-Dixon by storm by winning another
championship.The girls continued their
winning streak, taking rst in the George
Feely Classic in San Mateo and then the
Piece of The Rock tournament in Rocklin.
Going into NorCals in Sunnyvale, the
Slammers were undefeated. After beating the
LGSGSA Magic twice before, they faced
them again in the championship game. But
the third time proved to be the charm for the
Magic and the Storm unfortunately fell short
losing their rst game of their season 3-0.
The Slammers took another champi-
onship last weekend, winning the first
Foster City Invitational Tournament
improving their record to 30-1-1 for the
summer. They have two more tournaments to
play in before they head out to Arizona at the
end of the month.
The Slammers are coached by Vince
DeFriese and Steve Galliano.
The girls have not only been working hard

San Bruno Storm
The San Bruno Storm 16-under girls soft-
ball team is on a quest for the Western
National championships held in San Diego
the rst week of August.
The Storm took fourth place last year in
Stockton and is looking to come home with
the championship in 2013.
The last time the 16-under team took the
title was back in 2010 with a win in
Hillsboro, Ore. after a third place nish in
Lancaster during the 2009 tournament.
The team has played in several tourna-
ments this summer and captured a rst-place
nish in the NorCal Western Division.
The San Bruno Storm has a record of 21-0-
1 this summer.
South City Fog
After a tournament championship and a
couple of runner-up nishes, the South City
Fog is headed to Cooperstown, New York.
The boys from South San Francisco head
to the 104-team tournament the largest
in the U.S. on July 19. The Fog will
play in a guarenteed seven games.
South San Francisco Fog was founded in
2000 and has sent a team to Cooperstown,
New York ever since. The highest theyve
nished is second.
The Fog won the Burlingame Tournament
and nshed second at Santa Cruz and San
Bruno.
Local softball teams gearing up for nationals
TOURS, France Germanys Marcel Kittel
overtook Mark Cavendish at the line Thursday
to win the 12th stage of the Tour de France, and
Chris Froome avoided a late crash in the main
pack to preserve his big lead.
Cavendish moved in front but Kittel gained
ground and just beat him to the line to earn his
second stage win in three days and third of this
race.
As we say in Germany, good things come in
three, Kittel said. It was close. I dont know
what to say. It was a real sprint today, thats
why Im so happy.
German riders have won ve stages so far,
with Tony Martin capturing Wednesdays time
trial and Andre Greipel also winning a sprint
stage.
Its a big achievement for me, my team, and
for German sprinters as well, Kittel said.
Froome leads Alejandro Valverde by 3 min-
utes, 25 seconds and is 3:54 ahead of two-time
former champion Alberto Contador. Froome is
on track to become the second British rider to
win the race Bradley Wiggins won it last
year, with Froome runner-up.
At the moment Im trying to save as much
energy as possible for Mont Ventoux at the end
of the week and then the Alps next week, said
Froome, who dominated the rst big mountain
stage of the race in the Pyrenees last Saturday.
The eld rolled through vineyards and along-
side the Chinon forest on a 136-mile route
from Fougeres to Tours in the Loire valley, a
picturesque region dotted with imposing
French chateaus the spiral-towered Chateau
dUsse, which dates from the 11th century, and
the 16th century Chateau dAzay-le-Rideau,
which rests on the water.
About 20 riders were caught in a crash near
the end, with some stuck under the bikes of
others as wheels and frames jutted out at all
angles.
Froomes Sky teammate, Edvald Boasson
Hagen, broke his right shoulder blade and
dropped out of the tour.
Its a real shame for Edvald and a setback for
the team, Sky manager Dave Brailsford said.
But ultimately were still condent that, with
the riders weve got left, we can pull together
and see the race through.
Froome was close enough to hear the crash
but just far ahead enough to avoid it.
Its always like that at the end before a
sprint, Froome said. Its scary for everyone.
Kittel wins Tour stage; Froome keeps lead
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. Patriots corner-
back Alfonzo Dennard was arrested and
accused of drunk driving Thursday in
Nebraska while on probation for assaulting a
police ofcer, the second New England player
to get in serious legal trouble this summer.
Dennards early-morning arrest in Lincoln,
Neb., where he was a college star for the
Cornhuskers, came 15 days after Aaron
Hernandez was charged with murder and three
days after Patriots owner Robert Kraft said the
club will be looking at our procedures and
auditing how we do things with regard to
character reviews.
The New England Patriots are extremely
disappointed to learn of Alfonzo Dennards
arrest. We take this matter very seriously and
are working to get more information on the
incident, the team said in a statement.
Dennards arrest is his second in 15
months. He hasnt served a 30-day jail sen-
tence for the assault outside a Lincoln bar on
Apr. 21, 2012. That is scheduled to begin
next March. He also was sentenced to two
years of probation.
Hernandez, a star tight end, was arrested on
June 26 and charged with murder in the killing
of Boston semi-pro football player Odin
Lloyd. Hernandez has pleaded not guilty. The
Patriots cut Hernandez after he was arrested
and before the charges were announced.
Dennard and Hernandez both were highly-
touted college prospects whose draft stock
dropped because of character concerns.
Seven days after being charged with
assault, Dennard was drafted in the seventh
round last year out of Nebraska by the
Patriots. They drafted Hernandez in the fourth
round in 2010 after he violated the substance
abuse policy at Florida.
If this stuff is true, then Ive been duped
and our whole organization has been duped,
Kraft said Monday of the case involving
Hernandez.
The team did not respond to a request
Thursday for Krafts reaction to Dennards
arrest.
The legal issues are bound to hover over the
opening of training camp on July 25. Coach
Bill Belichick rarely comments on such mat-
ters and instructs his players to do the same.
Belichick has sometimes signed players
who had troubles elsewhere if he felt they
could help the team win, hoping his disci-
plined approach and leaders such as Tom
Brady and Vince Wilfork and now-retired
Patriots including Tedy Bruschi and Mike
Vrabel could keep them in line.

that accomplishment that fueled Sanders to
say she wanted to complete an Ironman one
day.
At some point, it became that way, but
in the beginning, not so much, Sanders
said. Its more like, thats a cool thing to
do. But eventually, about a year ago I said,
Im actually going to do this. Im going to
work really hard.
Work hard she did. Along with her father,
John Sanders, the two committed to some
intense training. Sherry said having her
father train alongside her and knowing
he had completed six of these such races in
the past helped her a lot.
I work harder. Work for a lot longer. And
I have different goals of what I want to
accomplish in my life, Sherry said when
asked what the difference is between Sherry
the Escape conqueror and Sherry, the young
woman who took down the Idaho course.
Ive worked a lot to just keep going. Its
never stopped coming. Alot of it was train-
ing with my dad, so I never wanted to stop
and have him see that. I thought about how
in two months, I wouldnt have to do it any-
more and Id have accomplished something
Ive wanted to for years.
The course began with a 2.4-mile, two-
loop swim, featuring a rolling swim start,
that took place in beautiful Lake Coeur
dAlene. Water temperatures ran about 60
degrees Farenheit. Sherry completed that in
1:22:42.
Then, Sherry and the other cyclists made
two loops through rural northern Idaho for
the 112-mile bike ride. Each loop began
with a scenic ride along the shores of Lake
Coeur dAlene and then entered the rolling
hills west of the lake. Sherry said the bike
ride was the most trying of the three disci-
plines. She completed the course in
7: 11. 33.
There was never a point when I thought
that I couldnt nish, Sherry said. I knew
I was going to nish all day.
The day nished with the highlight of the
course. Athletes ran parallel to the shore of
Lake Coeur dAlene for two loops, with one
steep climb at the southern turnaround
point. The 26.2-mile run took Sherry
6:01.35.

Colorado, helping the Dodgers shoot up the
NL West standings following a slow start.
But Puig has only been in the majors for
five weeks, leading some to question
whether he belongs on the NL team.
The nal vote for the AL team also had its
own share of controversy, with Tigers man-
ager Jim Leyland nominating ve middle
relievers for the spot. There was some talk
about whether the list should have included
more high-prole players, since the All-
Star game is essentially geared toward the
fans.
Delabar won with 9.6 million votes. The
right-hander is 5-1 with a 1.74 ERA in 37
appearances for the Blue Jays.
The Braves and Blue Jays had partnered up
in the process, asking their fans to vote for
each others player.
The other players on the list included
righties David Robertson of the Yankees,
Joaquin Benoit of the Tigers, Koji Uehara of
the Red Sox and Tanner Scheppers of the
Rangers.
Freeman and Puig nished ahead of San

were cast between the two leagues, easily
cruising past the previous record of 68.6

SELECTION
the start of the 34th Americas Cup on Sept.
7.
The jury ruled that a regatta notice issued
by Murray had the effect of changing the
class rule and was not in accordance with the
protocol. Murray was ordered to withdraw
that notice.
Last week, Murray said that if the jury
sided with the challengers, he would have
no choice but to go back to the U.S. Coast
Guard to discuss the permit it issued for rac-
ing on San Francisco Bay.
The jury ordered Murray to make the views
of all the competitors known to the Coast
Guard.
In a statement, Emirates Team New
Zealand said it was pleased the jury has
maintained the sanctity of the AC72 Class
Rule in ruling that it can be changed only by
unanimous consent of the competitors and
the Regatta Director.
The Kiwis added that they believe the
jurys decision does not affect the sub-
stance of the safety plan submitted with the
application to the U.S. Coast Guard for a
Marine Event Permit or the excellent work
the Regatta Director undertook with the
Review Committee.
The Kiwis also said theyd like to help
Artemis Racing, which has said it doesnt
have the proper rudders to comply with the
rules.
The Kiwis said they have proposed that
when Artemis is ready to race, it be given
dispensation from the class rule regarding
rudder elevators as long as it otherwise com-
plies with the class rule and safety recom-
mendations.
This would require the consent of the
other competitors and we would strongly
urge this be given, the New Zealand state-
ment said. Artemis Racing is making a
tremendous effort under difficult circum-
stances to get back on the race track and
deserve support to help them achieve this.
The Italians and regatta organizers
werent immediately available for com-
ment.
Oracle Team USA said in a statement that
it respected the decision of the jury, contin-
ues to support Murray and that it believes
all teams have beneted from his review.
Luna Rossa skipper Max Sirena said last
week that the Italians would not race until
the jury ruled, but that they would return
regardless of the panels decision. They
kept their word, refusing to show up for the
regattas opening race on Sunday against
the Kiwis.
Russell Coutts, the most dominant skip-
per in Americas Cup history and the CEO of
Oracle Team USA, responded by calling the
Italians a bunch of spoiled rich kids
dressed in Prada gear.
Luna Rossa is backed by fashion house
Prada.
Now, the regatta could see its rst real race
on Saturday, when Luna Rossa is scheduled
to face Emirates Team New Zealand.
The Kiwis have twice sailed around the
course alone, including the race the Italians
boycotted and on Tuesday when Artemis
Racing was the scheduled opponent. They
have shown remarkable speed, reaching
nearly 50 mph on Thursday.
Emirates Team New Zealand was practic-
ing on San Francisco Bay on Thursday,
appearing to shadow the Italians as they n-
ished their race.

a while, Reynoso said. I want guys who t
the culture. It doesnt matter what they did
last year. If they t the mold, we want to
have them.
Reynosos rst year as a Colts assistant
during the 2011-12 season was a bumpy ride
as Caada won only three games. Last year,
the Colts nished 10-16, but only 2-10 in
Coast Conference North play.
The Coast Conference North has three of
the best teams in Northern California in
City College of San Francisco, Foothill and
Ohlone. All three won more than 20 games
last season, with San Francisco going 12-0
in conference play.
Reynoso understands he wont lead the
Colts to a conference title his rst year.
Hell draw on his Woodside experience that
a coach has to build a foundation rst.
Those first two years are building
blocks, Reynoso said.
Reynoso guided the Wildcats to a pair of
15-win seasons his final two years at
Woodside. The Wildcats made the Central
Coast Section playoffs both years. They
advanced to the quarternals in 2010 but
lost in the rst round in 2011.
Reynoso compiled a 50-52 record at
Woodside.
We are very excited about what Mike
Reynoso stands for and feel the program
will continue to be lled with high charac-
ter student-athletes that represent Caada
College so well, Garcia said in a press
release.

IRONMAN
OKLAHOMA CITY U.S. softball coach
Ken Eriksen has watched Lauren Gibson
play for his team for three years and said hes
become a bit spoiled by her.
In the World Cup of Softball opener on
Thursday night, Gibson turned in one of
those performances that Eriksen has come
to love, going 2 for 3 with a home run, two
RBIs, two stolen bases and three runs scored
as the U.S. routed Canada 7-0 in six innings.
Sara Nevins and Jessica Moore combined
on a two-hitter for the U.S., which has won
the last six World Cups and is 40-4 all-time
in the event, one of the major tournaments
on the international softball circuit.
Its good to be positive about what went
on tonight, Eriksen said. Weve got to
build upon it. We went out and I thought we
executed well when we had to. I thought
some really, really good at-bats. . They are
so talented right now. Theyve just need to
trust themselves and well be in good
shape.
Gibson, the Southeastern Conference
player of the year at Tennessee this spring,
did a little bit of everything for the U.S.,
which jumped ahead quickly with four runs in
the rst two innings and never gave Canada
a chance to gain any momentum.
We see it every single day, so we dont
get excited, Eriksen said. In practice shes
like that, so we get spoiled, so we have to
learn to appreciate it a little bit more and
make sure she realizes we appreciate it. But
thats typical Gibson in this program. She
gets pretty jacked up when she puts the red,
white and blue on.
Gibson singled with one out in the rst
inning, and she and Michelle Moultrie
scored on a bases-loaded single by Valerie
Arioto off Canada starter Jenna Caira (0-1).
Gibson and her Tennessee teammate, Raven
Chavanne, successfully executed a double
steal in the second, with Gibson scoring to
put the U.S. ahead 4-0.
Gibson said the double steal wasnt
planned, which Eriksen conrmed.

G-Class is in class of its own
By Ann M. Job
Its easy to look down on Toyota Prius
drivers if youre driving the newest and
most special Mercedes-Benz G-Class sport
utility vehicle.
The unusual-looking G63 AMG, which
includes modest design changes made on all
G-Class models plus more luxury touches
and a more powerful V-8, puts passengers at
such seat heights that they tower over mini-
vans, most pickup trucks and, yes, Priuses
though gas mileage is another matter entire-
l y.
If the test drive was any indication, plen-
ty of Prius drivers speed up to try to keep the
tall, boxy G-Class from getting in front of
them in trafc and blocking their views.
Alas, the Priuses, ubiquitous on some
California thoroughfares, are no match for
the attention-grabbing, powerful G-Class.
Even the old Hummer SUVs that fuel-con-
scious drivers loved to hate years ago didnt
have the awesome 544 horsepower and
whopping 560 foot-pounds of torque that
come with the top-of-the-line G63 AMG.
This translates into a federal government

DETROIT Is that new set of wheels out
of your price range? Used cars have gotten
more affordable, especially if youre look-
ing for a small car or a hybrid.
Used car prices have been falling since
2011, and theyre expected to decline gradu-
ally for the remainder of this year. Thats
good news for those joining or re-entering
the workforce, or anyone else who might
nd a payment on a new car too steep.
There is some volatility. Prices for used
cars are typically higher at the start of the
year, when dealers buy cars at auctions in
advance of the spring selling season. They
decline as the year goes on. The price of a 3-
year-old car fell 4 percent between April and
June, estimates Alex Gutierrez of car-pric-
ing company Kelley Blue Book.
Used-car dealers get many of their cars
from auctions run by companies like
Manheim, a division of Cox Enterprises of
Atlanta. The average price for a used car at
auction was $11,031 in June, down 6 per-
cent from its peak in May 2011, Manheim
reported this week. The 2011 peak was the
highest price Manheim had seen since
1995, when it began collecting data.

mpg in city driving and 12.1 mpg in mixed
city/highway travel.
With just 1,330 sold in the United States
last year, the swaggering G-Class vehicles
are not seen much on our roads. But their
road presence, the intoxicating exhaust
sounds of the biturbo V-8 in the 2013 AMG
and the sumptuous alcantara- and leather-
clad interior make these vehicles unforget-
table.
They rank as the highest-priced SUVs
from Mercedes. The base, 2013 G550 with
388-horsepower V-8 has a starting manufac-
turers suggested retail price, including des-
tination charge, of $113,905. The starting
retail price for a 2013 Mercedes G63 AMG is
$135,205.
All 2013 G-Class models come standard
with seven-speed automatic transmission,
trendy light-emitting diode running lamps,
blind spot assist and front and rear parking
sensors with rearview camera.
Competitors include the 2013 Porsches
Cayenne SUV, which has a starting retail
price of $50,575 with 300-horsepower, six-
cylinder engine and goes to $146,975 for a
Cayenne Turbo S with 550-horsepower,
twin turbo V-8. Note that the 2013 Cayenne
S Turbo is rated by the federal government at
15/22 mpg.
Another competitor in the high-end,
high-power, luxury SUV segment is the
2013 Lexus LX, which has a starting MSRP,
including destination charge, of $82.425
with 383-horsepower, naturally aspirated V-
8. Government fuel ratings for the LX are
12/17 mpg.
But where the Cayenne and LX look like
the more mainstream SUVs on todays
roads, the G-Class retains an old, utilitarian
and quirky appearance.
The G-Class isnt rounded and aerodynam-
ic, for example. It has upright side windows
and an upright windshield that with a small
amount of glass area, comparatively. The
metal pillars at the sides of the windshield
are much narrower than those in other
SUVs, so they dont block views the way
they do in other SUVs. But the upright side
windows also mean it can take some getting
used to seeing reections of the driver, pas-
sengers and dashboard appear on the side
window glass in certain daylight and at
night.
There is a big climb up to get inside, so
the test G63 AMGs side rails, set next to
the pretty, shiny and illuminated door sills,
got lots of use, as did the big handles at each
doorway.
G-CLASS
At Manheim-run auctions, banks and auto
company nancing operations sell cars that
have come back after leases expire. Rental
car companies and car dealers also sell cars
there. Dealers buy the cars, mark them up
and sell them for a prot .
Auction values also help set prices for
individuals who want to sell their cars at the
market rate.
In 2009, new vehicle sales fell to a 30-
year low of 10.4 million. Two years later,
used cars were in short supply and prices got
so high that it made sense for consumers to
buy new.
Things have turned around. New car sales
picked up starting in 2010 and now there are
far more used cars in the pipeline. Buyers
shopping for a 3-year-old used car can
expect to pay 25 or 30 percent less than the
manufacturers suggested retail price for a
current new model.
The average retail price of a used car fell
by $1,000 per car in the last half of 2012.
Gutierrez expects a similar decline in the
second half of this year. Keep in mind that
used car prices vary widely based on the age
of the car and the miles it has been driven.
The price declines will be gradual. While
more inventory is helping to lower prices,
demand is rising as more people get jobs
and need vehicles for work.

For a nation that has never real-
ly been invaded in recent history
(with all due respect to Pearl
Harbor), we sure get our pop
culture and entertainment kicks
from invasion porn.
In the last handful of years, our
planet, nation, bodies, souls and
homes have been attacked
relentlessly by aliens, Islamic
terrorists, white supremacists,
demons, mutants, piranhas,
sociopaths, zombies,
Kryptonians, trees and, even
more implausibly than trees, the
Democratic Peoples Republic
of Korea.
Maybe this is social program-
ming in anticipation and prepa-
ration for a real invasion down
the line. Or maybe its a fun-
house mirroring of a society that
cant help itself from regularly
invading other countries.
This might make a ne doctor-
al thesis eventually for someone
but, for now, were enjoyably
under attack at the movies again
in Pacic Rim.
In this latest assault on our
freedom and our lives, giant,
quasi-reptilian monsters are ris-
ing from the bottom of the
Pacific Ocean through some
kind of inter-dimensional portal.
If you just absorbed that sen-
tence without laughing out loud,

SAN MATEO COUNTY SHER-
IFFS FORENSIC LABORATORY
SERVES THE CAUSE OF JUS-
TICE. Law enforcement agencies in
22 San Mateo County cities rely on
what takes place in a one-story, state
of the art building on Tower Road in
San Mateo. That is where the San
Mateo County Sheriffs Forensic
Laboratory does the detailed scientic
work that follows a case from crime
scene to courtroom. The results that
emerge from this agency can determine
whether or not a prosecution takes
place or whether a defendant is found
guilty or not guilty.
IT BEGINS AT THE CRIME
SCENE. The Forensic Laboratory
staff has to be methodical and meticu-
lous, beginning with crime scene work
that encompasses the recognition,
documentation, collection and preser-
vation of physical evidence. In order
to accomplish these tasks, the crime
scene team may be required to photo-
graph, sketch, diagram, take measure-
ments and collect biological material,
rearms evidence and impression evi-
dence, such as tool or tire marks and
footprints. All these and any other
items of evidence then need to be
processed at the forensics laboratory.
EVALUATING THE EVIDENCE.
Once evidence has been gathered, it
has to be evaluated. The San Mateo
County Sheriffs Ofce uses the most
modern of methods and instruments to
interpret blood stain patterns, deter-
mine bullet trajectories, compare
firearms to bullets and casings and
check for gun shot residue.
Technicians compare hairs and bers,
tire tracks and shoe prints. The labora-
tory also does calibration for breath
alcohol.
SEARCHING DATABASES FOR
ANSWERS. The search for evidence
often leads forensic scientists to major
data bases: A search of red cartridge
cases and bullets involves the
National Integrated Ballistic
Information Network (NIBIN); and
detection and identication of body
uids on items of evidence, DNA t yp-
ing and analysis and search of uniden-
tied DNA proles may bring in the
Combined DNAIndex System (CODIS)
and the National DNA Index System
(NDIS). Technicians also process evi-
dence for latent prints, make compar-
isons of latent prints to victim elimi-
nation standards and suspect standards
and search for unidentied latent prints
in various automated ngerprint iden-
tication systems (AFIS).

GARDINER, N.Y. With all the orchards
and corn fields that dot the Hudson Valley
landscape, Tuthilltown Spirits doesnt
have to look far for the grains and apples
to make their whiskey, vodka and gin.
The 10-year-old company crafts many of
their liquors from ingredients grown no
more than a few minutes away, the bounty
of the rolling hills that surround it.
The people who come to our distillery
and visit us and see our operation can then
drive down the road to the local orchard or
the local farm and actually see the materials
weve used in the ground, Tuthilltown co-
founder Ralph Erenzo said. Buy a basket
of the apples that weve made vodka or gin
from, and maybe get a couple of ears of
corn.
The process is sometimes referred to as
grain to glass the beer-and-whiskey
version of the foodie slogan farm to
table. Both phrases imply a connection
to fresh, local ingredients. Tuthilltown is
part of a larger hand-crafted booze move-
ment that has Wood Creek Distillers in
Colorado growing its own potatoes for
high-end vodka and Wigle Whiskey in
Pittsburgh using local, organic heirloom
rye.
These local distilleries are going to do
things again based on the local culture,
said Bill Owens, founder and president of
the American Distilling Institute. He said
the dizzying growth in craft distilleries to
about 500 now from around 200 five years
ago is driven in part by the desire to con-
nect to local crops and customs.
And hes not talking about farmers mak-
ing corn mash in a shed.
Tuthilltown is busy operation based in a
converted barn packed with three stills,
including one with a towering copper silo
with portals that makes it look part nauti-
cal, part steampunk. On a recent day, a
worker hoisted heavy bags of New York-
grown corn into a mill next to giant stain-
less steel fermentation tanks. Oak barrels
used for aging were stacked nearby.
Erenzo said their vodkas are distilled
from apples grown at local orchards and the
whiskeys typically start with local grain.
The arrangements not only lend
Tuthilltown some of the Hudson Valleys
cachet, but makes business sense: its a lot
cheaper to move a couple of tons of grain
across town than in from Indiana.
Its also good for farmer Leonard
Tantillo, who sells the hometown distillers
corn, rye and apples he grows at his family
farm nearby. Tantillo, who runs a farm mar-
ket in Gardiner, said it gives him yet
another market to sell what he grows.
And there are other side benefits.
They give me product at Christmastime
or whenever Im down there, Tantillo said.
Taste this. See how this is. This is from
your farm! And thats very nice.
Erenzo and Brian Lee started Tuthilltown
in 2003 in the shadow of the rocky
Shawangunk Ridge about 60 miles north of
New York City. They took advantage of a
change in state law that created a new, inex-
pensive license for small producers.

An already shaky marriage is shaken
even more when a third person enters
the scene in Neil LaButes searing This
Is How It Goes, presented by Aurora
Theatre Company.
The marriage is between Belinda
(Carrie Paff, whose character is called
Woman in the program), a white
woman, and Cody Phipps (Aldo
Billingslea), a black man. The third per-
son, called Man (we never learn his real
name), is a white man played by Gabriel
Marin.
The three of them were in high school
together 15 years ago, but Man left their
small Midwestern town after graduation,
served in the Army, got married and
became a lawyer.
He returns after losing his job and
wife. By chance, he runs into Belinda at
a shopping mall and winds up renting an
apartment over the Phipps garage.
Man also serves as the narrator.
Introducing the play, he cautions that
his descriptions arent necessarily reli-
able. He even has Cody and Belinda
enacting two versions of a scene for
which he wasnt present.
That rst meeting between Man and
Belinda is understandably awkward, but
theres a spark of attraction that for him
began in high school. When he asks
Belinda about her marriage, her vague-
ness signals that all is not right.
The reason becomes apparent when
Cody rst appears. One of the few black
people in town, hes a successful busi-
nessman whos proud of his status. He
also has a chip on his shoulder and
becomes jealous and suspicious of Man.
Soon racism becomes a major issue
that brings out even more negative
behavior and volatility.
This 2005, one-act play runs a swift
100 minutes, thanks to ATC artistic
director Tom Ross and his outstanding
cast.
Along the way it takes numerous
twists and turns, some predicated on
something as seemingly mundane in
the larger scale of things as a rare
Jackie Robinson baseball trading card.
With his imposing stage presence as
Cody, Billingslea embodies the charac-
ters ability to intimidate others, keep-
ing the audience on edge, too.
Paffs Belinda does her best to try to
placate him and cater to Man as their
guest, but Cody will have none of it.
Marins Man comes across as garru-
lous and not always sure of himself, but
he does a great job of propelling the
story and action.
This is not a play for the faint of
heart. It deals directly and sometimes
profanely with thorny issues, but its
also an intelligent, provocative exami-
nation of those issues.
This Is How It Goes will continue at
Aurora Theatre, 2081 Addison St.,
Berkeley, through July 28. Tickets and
information are available by calling
(510) 843-4822 or visiting www.auro-

Sometime in 2013, the rst of many of
the aforementioned monsters, called kaiju,
wreaks havoc on San Francisco. As more
kaiju (think Godzilla without the charisma)
start attacking Manila, Toyko, Sydney and
other cities along the Pacific Rim, the
nations of Earth put aside their differences
(except probably in the Gaza Strip), and
unite to ght back. They do so by building
equally gigantic robots called Jaegers to
stand toe-to-toe against the enemy.
Thats right, giant monsters battling
giant robots. Pacic Rim is a clich-rid-
den, heavily-CGId gargantuan of a movie,
and its also a heck of a lot of fun.
Director Guillermo del Toro (Pans
Labyrinth) has created a movie that is rm-
ly aware of its identity. Without any shame,
this movie is essentially a live action ver-
sion of a cartoon, with heavy inuences
from Japanese anime and manga.
The estimated $180 million budget is uti-
lized well the special effects are seam-
less, and the three major set pieces are well
worth the money. All the major CGI scenes
are lmed in 3-D, so there is none of the dis-
comt of a 2-D conversion. If youre going
to see the lm, you will denitely want to
pursue the largest possible screen you can
nd.
On the human aspects, del Toro employs
mostly a group of unknowns, most of whom
do not stand out, as their roles are essential-
ly caricatures. The best-known actors are
Ron Perlman, who del Toro directed in
Hellboy, and British actor Idris Elba (best
known for one of the greatest pop culture
television characters youve probably
never heard of, Stringer Bell from The
Wire). Elbas battle speech at the climax is
just about worth the entire price of admis-
sion.
The only character development in the
lm involves the Jaeger pilots. The robots
can only be controlled by at least two pilots
due the mental strain of moving 250-foot
tall machines. To properly unite the efforts
of the pilots, they have to sync their
brains, so each pilot can essentially get
into his or her partners minds.
In another sci- movie, they could have
gone to some interesting places with this,
but it really doesnt happen here. Perhaps in
the inevitable sequel that comes once
Pacic Rim becomes a huge sleeper hit,
they can explore this. For now, were happy
just rallying together to fend off the latest
invasion of our planet. Go us!

from the approximately 20 candidates that
applied in 2009. Not including the 2012
class since it is still in process and the 2013
class since they just started, there have been
12 students selected. Of the 12 students, 10
gained employment by a law enforcement
agency. One of the 12 students hadnt grad-
uated when she completed her commitment
to the program and continued her education
and the remaining one student chose not to
pursue forensics. Any college student or
college applicant may apply for the posi-
tion. As long as the potential candidate has
turned in a completed application packet
then he or she will be invited for an inter-
view. Every year in January, I email several
science department heads or post on the col-
lege career websites for the local colleges
and universities. In addition to contacting
the colleges and universities in our area, the
program is promoted on the Sheriffs Ofce
website, during the laboratorys annual

During her tenure, the department
approved 660 residential units in six differ-
ent development projects, approved more
than 10,000 building permits, selected a
new citywide permit tracking system and
oversaw the state-mandated dissolution of
the citys redevelopment agency.
The accomplishments took place during
an economic downturn, which resulted in a
third of the positions, 17, being cut from
the department.
She previously worked for San Mateo
County as the director of the Planning and
Building Department.
Before joining the county, she spent 11
years with Palo Alto, where she served for
six as a zoning administrator and ve as the

Shes a consummate professional and
Im sorry were losing her, said
Councilman Jack Matthews, who first
worked with Grote more than 25 years ago
when she worked for Palo Alto. Shes very
high caliber. She will be difficult to
replace.
Grote is the third retirement in the depart-
ment in recent months following the depar-

Scott.
All three played a role in the approval and
aftermath of the controversial 7-Eleven on
San Mateo Drive that the city erroneously
approved and for which it is currently being
sued.
Mayor David Lim requested an audit of the
Community Development Department back
in April following several gaffes it had.
Sadly, the decision to cut 17 staff mem-
bers in CDD over the past four years has
contributed to numerous high-prole gaffes
in CDD that have caused the City Council to
call for an independent audit of the CDD.
This audit is in no way a reection or indict-
ment on the hard work provided by Ms.
Grote or the hard work of the entire CDD
staff, Lim wrote in a statement.
City Manager Susan Loftus said Grote was
a tremendous asset to the citys executive
team.
Grote faced many challenges as San
Mateos Community Development director
as she implemented two major staff reduc-
tions due to both the huge drop in building
activity and the dismantlement of the rede-
velopment agency. She handled these chal-
lenges with professionalism and sensitivi-
ty and was able to accomplish a great deal
while she was here. Lisa will be missed and
we wish her all the best in future endeav-
ors, Loftus wrote in a statement.
Grote plans to retire Sept. 4.

2034 and 2050, the jury report stated.
But in a prepared statement, district of-
cials knock the report as containing
numerous factual errors, omission and
misstatements. Specifically, the district
said the jurys bond and debt totals are
wrong and that there were only two CABs
issued. The district said it issued Build
America Bonds, a federally-subsidized pro-
gram that saved taxpayers millions. The
total debt service is $592,731,659 and pay-
ments will end in 2042 and 2051, according
to the district.
The controversy over CABs came to a
head in May 2011 when the Los Angeles
treasurer warned against their use and recom-
mended Los Angeles County school districts
take a conservative approach. State
Treasurer Bill Lockyer and State
Superintendent Tom Torlakson also joined
the fray the following January by calling for
a moratorium on issuing CABS. Lockyer
told the New York Times at the time the
bonds are the school district version of
printing money.
Locally, the grand jury recommends the
school districts develop and follow prudent
loan parameters before issuing a CAB.
The district trustees began discussing
potential changes to school bond nancing
in February and remain committed to issu-
ing bonds in a way that is prudent, cost
effective and transparent for the taxpayers
and constituents, according to the district
statement.

Afus friends reported seeing him stabbed
by Ahio around 11:30 p.m. The next after-
noon, a bloodied backpack containing iden-
tication and a bloody knife was discovered
a block from the school, on the side of the
New Vision United Methodist Church on
Chadbourne Avenue. Ahio surrendered to
police that night.
Ahio killed Afu over jealousy involving
his wife who he was convicted in July 2010
of battering, according to prosecutors.
However, Wagstaffe said Ahio was mistak-
en and the woman was not having an affair.
Before Ahio could be tried, the defense
attorney questioned his competency and,
based on the conclusions of two court-
appointed doctors, he was committed to
Napa State Hospital in June 2012. The hos-
pital returned him in the fall, deeming him
restored to competency. In January of this
year, a judge conrmed the nding.
Had Ahio opted for trial on murder and
knife charges, he faced life in prison with-
out the possibility of parole if convicted of
those counts and the special allegation of
lying in wait. Prosecutors opted against
seeking the death penalty.
Ahio did not address the court at his sen-
tencing hearing but Afus mother did, say-
ing she forgave him for his actions and call-
ing the punishment appropriate, Wagstaffe
said.
In a pre-sentencing report, Ahio did
accept responsibility and expressed remorse
for the harm he inicted, Wagstaffe said.

everyday necessities we often overlook,
said Kathi Baxter, environmental science
educator at Elkus Ranch. The educational
programs started in 1978 and continued
throughout the years, even as the farm dwin-
dled to a more manageable 125 acres, Baxter
said.
The ranch welcomes about 8,000 kids a
year, most third grade or younger. But the
mission of the ranch has always been to
provide these types of experiences to all
ages, including high school students, adults
and those with special needs, Baxter said.
In early June, Elkus Ranch hosted its
annual Sheep to Shawl event that allowed
the public to wander about and marvel at the
facilities while watching wool be sheared,
spun and knit.
The majority of children dont know
where their clothing ber or food actually
originates from. So when theyre here and
they see the wool comes right off the sheep,
then its through a process thats knitted and
made into something they can wear, theres
that strong connection, Baxter said.
The ranch is also known for their hands-
on gardening tasting tour where visitors
have the opportunity to compost, plant and
taste fresh produce. Denise Kelly and mem-
bers of the University of California
Cooperative Extension Master Gardeners
program, help direct and sustain the ranchs
garden. Fruit trees, culinary herbs, edible
owers and root vegetables can be picked
and eaten. Similar to the ranchs overall
hands-on structure, the garden is both a talk-
ing and edible tour, Kelly said.
Discovery
Texas native Edie Kissko grew up farming
and gardening, but her California-born chil-
dren dont have regular access to such expe-
riences. She brought her kids to Elkus
Ranch to show them the signicance of
knowing where their consumables origi-
nate.
It was great to be in the garden and say
this is where the food we buy comes from.
Because we dont garden at home ... its neat
to show them growing food. I just think it
enriches their lives and its neat that theres
something like this so close to where we
live. I just think its another dimension of
our world for them to experience, Kissko
said.
Being able to walk up to a seemingly
plain green stem in the earth and pull out a
carrot and taste it is a rewarding experience
for children, particularly those who come
from low-income families, Kelly said.
Thanks to a recent donation from San
Mateos philanthropic Atkinson
Foundation, Elkus Ranch was able to install
raised garden beds, Baxter said. Enabling
children and those in wheelchairs to visual-
ize the plants at eye level has proven to be a
valuable teaching tool, Baxter said.
Donations and grants
Elkus Ranch is primarily supported by
donations and grants from the University of
California and individuals. The funds from
events like Sheep to Shawl go toward pro-
viding transportation for low-income stu-
dents to visit the ranch and participate in
their educational programs, Baxter said.
Elkus Ranch representatives seek out low-
income schools to which they can provide
scholarships, Baxter said. Being able to
waive program fees is why donations are so
critical, Baxter said.
Scholarship programs are typically held
from the middle of November to late
February. Tours tend to be fully booked from
March to June, sometimes hosting 90 kids a
day, Baxter said. Elkus Ranch has also
begun to host birthday parties and Girl
Scout camps.
And a llama named Spice
Participants can visit with Elkus Ranchs
30 chickens, 20 sheep, 10 goats, ve cows,
three rabbits, two horses and a llama endear-
ingly named Spice. The children are taught
about life cycles and food chains. By touch-
ing fur pellets and animal bones, they learn
about birth and decomposition. There are
also lessons about the differences between
prey, predators and scavengers, Baxter said.
Visiting children spend short periods of
time listening to informative talks before
they solidify their lessons with interactive
activities. Sarah Schillback has been taking
her 6-year-old son Lukas to Elkus since he
was 2.
Its just amazing, there are just so many
different animals. And the hands-on experi-
ence, you cant get that anywhere else short
of having your own ranch animals. And the
people who work here are so amazingly
helpful, Schillback said.
The dedication of the Elkus Ranch staff,
volunteers and community members allows
the facility to prosper. The reactions and
support they receive from those who visit
their farm helps solidify their mission to
educate, entertain and enrich the lives of
future generations.
When theyre eating broccoli and they
see that its growing and they relate that to
the broccoli their mom bought in Safeway,
they make that connection that theres
something important about the land and the
work thats gone into producing that food,
Baxter said. Wed like them to leave with a
sense of stewardship, that they have some
control over how they treat the land and the
water, because its necessary to produce all
of this.
Elkus Ranch is located at 1500 Purisima
Creek Road in Half Moon Bay. The ranch is
not typically open to the public but for

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Michael Gus Geraldi
Case Number: 123469
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: Michael Gus Geraldi. A
Petition for Probate has been filed by
Marie J. Cohn in the Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo. The
Petition for Probate requests that Marie
J. Cohn be appointed as personal repre-
sentative to administer the estate of the
decedent.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ster the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: July 31, 2013 at
9:00 a.m., Dept. 28,, Room , Superior
Court of California, County of San Mateo,
400 County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063. If you object to the granting of the
petition, you should appear at the hear-
ing and state your objections or file writ-
ten objections with the court before the
hearing. Your appearance may be in
person or by your attorney. If you are a
creditor or a contingent creditor of the
decedent, you must file your claim with
the court and mail a copy to the personal
representative appointed by the court
within four months from the date of first
issuance of letters as provided in Pro-
bate Code section 9100. The time for fil-
ing claims will not expire before four
months from the hearing date noticed
above. You may examine the file kept by
the court. If you are a person interested
in the estate, you may file with the court
a Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.

WORLD 31
By Hamza Hendawi
CAIRO Prosecutors will
investigate allegations that
Egypts ousted president escaped
from prison during the 2011 revo-
lution with help from the
Palestinian militant group Hamas,
ofcials said Thursday.
Chief prosecutor Hesham
Barakat has received testimonies
from a court in the Suez Canal city
of Ismailia that will be the base
for an investigation by state secu-
rity prosecutors into the jailbreak
by Mohammed Morsi and more
than 30 other Muslim
Brotherhood leaders, according to
the ofcials who spoke on condi-
tion of anonymity because they
were not authorized to speak to the
media.
The question of whether Hamas
helped them escape amid the chaos
surrounding the 2011 uprising
that toppled Hosni Mubarak has
been debated in the media for
months and proved a political
headache for Morsi during his one-
year rule as Egypts rst freely
elected president. Critics in the
opposition and judiciary have
suggested that proof of foreign
intervention on Egyptian soil
could lead to treason charges.
The issue has taken on more sig-
nicance since Morsi was ousted
on July 3 by the military follow-
ing a wave of protests in which
millions of Egyptians called on
him to step down. The toppled
Islamist leader has been kept at an
undisclosed Defense Ministry
facility and no charges against
him have been announced.
Hamas has denied any role in the
Jan. 29, 2011, jailbreak at Wadi
el-Natroun prison northwest of
Cairo. Morsi and other
Brotherhood leaders have said
local residents helped them escape
after most inmates left the facili-
t y.
The investigation stems from a
court case against a former inmate,
but judge Khaled Mahgoub turned
what was in effect a low-prole
trial into a public inquiry into the
escape by Morsi and the other
Brotherhood ofcials. A series of
prison ofcials, police and intel-
ligence agents testified, some
behind closed doors.
Egypt to investigate Morsi for 2011 jailbreak
Kremlin recipe for avoiding
leaks: Use typewriters
MOSCOW Got an old type-
writer in your garage? Call the
Kremlin, they need some.
Russias Federal Protective
Service, a KGB successor agency in
charge of protecting President
Vladimir Putin and his ofcials, has
placed an order for 20 typewriters
and is ready to pay $750 each for
them, according to Thursdays
report in Izvestia.
The Kremlin-connected daily said
the agency, known by its Russian
acronym FSO, believes its neces-
sary to expand the use of typewrit-
ers following disclosures of sweep-
ing U.S. National Security Agency
surveillance programs by leaker
Edward Snowden and earlier publi-
cation of classied documents by
secret-spilling website WikiLeaks.
Police: 24 bodies now
found in Quebec train crash
LAC-MEGANTIC, Quebec The
rst victim of a runaway oil trains
explosive derailment in a Quebec
town was identied Thursday, more
than ve days since the disaster,
which left behind a scorched scene
so dangerous that it slowed the
search for 50 people presumed dead.
Quebecs premier toured the trau-
matized town and sharply criticized
the U.S. railways chief for not
responding in person more quickly
to Canadas worst railway disaster
in nearly 150 years.
