Former San Mateo County chief
probation officer Stuart Forrest
told jurors he lied to investigators
about having images of naked and
bound boys because he felt they
wouldnt believe his claims the
pornography was for work-related
research.
After repeat-
edly telling
D e p u t y
A t t o r n e y
G e n e r a l
Johnette Jauron
that his answers
about not own-
ing or purchas-
ing pictures and videos were not
lies, Forrest, 61, rested his head in
his right hand and admitted yes.
I no longer trusted them,
Forrest said, adding that he was
just trying to end the interview
and contact his attorney.
Forrest said he was shocked to
realize federal investigators sus-
pected him of possessing child
porn for his personal use because
he had purchased and downloaded
the images on his county-issued
electronic devices in an effort to
expand human trafficking train-
i ng.
I didnt think that anything
adequate was being done to address
male victimization, Forrest said,
adding that despite Jaurons con-
tention he focused on a narrow
type of pornography involving
bound and spanked boys he actual-
ly did a full spectrum of
research.
Forrest said he underwent sever-
al bouts of training on human traf-
cking but was particularly moti-

Grant Murphy was just like any
other recently graduated high
school student getting ready for
college. Savoring nal days with
friends, preparing for this college
cross country career and taking a
summer college preparation
course. But this all changed when
he learned the College Board
decided to invalidate the Advanced
Placement test scores from this
past spring at his high school,
Mills in Millbrae, due to seating
irregularities.
Now, Murphy, 18, is dedicating
much of his time to helping with
the community effort to retrieve
these scores. Meetings, confer-
ence calls with politicians and
researching similar past cases now
ll his days.
I just want my scores back,
said Hillsborough resident
Murphy, who only recently moved
out of Burlingame, which is why
he attended Mills. He lives with
his stay-at-home mom, younger
sister, dad and their 9-year-old dog
Dolce.
Rewind back to this spring and
Murphy could be found spending
about an hour a day studying for
each of his three AP tests in the
final weeks leading up to the
exams. Murphy said this doesnt
take into account the months of
work assignments and prep tests
leading up to the ofcial test days.
AP tests are unlike any other
tests, Murphy said. Theyre

Man injured when
bridge jumper lands on him
MISSOULA, Mont. A western
Montana man floating on an inner
tube suffered broken bones in his legs
and torn ligaments in his knees when
another man jumped from a bridge and
landed in his lap.
Andy Hill of Missoula and his wife
were floating under a bridge on the
Clark Fork River near East Missoula
Sunday when the man landed on him,
KECI-TV reported.
Suddenly I had intense pain and
was under water, Hill said.
There was a guy on my lap and he
rolled off my lap and he just kept
apologizing saying Im sorry, Im
sorry, Im sorry, Hill said.
The man swam Hill to shore, still
on the inner tube, and the mans
friend helped Hill as well.
Hill suffered broken bones in both
lower legs and a cracked femur in his
left leg and will likely spend the rest
of the summer in a wheelchair or on
crutches.
But hes been able to keep his sense
of humor.
Who does this happen to? asked
Hill, laughing. I dont know of any-
body this has ever happened to.
Missoula County authorities say
the man who jumped could be
charged.
Man swims across
Detroit River, prompts rescue
DETROIT A man who wanted to
prove he could swim across the
Detroit River from Canada to the U.S.
after a night of drinking ended up
prompting an international rescue
operation.
John Morillo told The Windsor Star
that Monday nights swim from
Windsor, Ontario, to Detroit, was
really stupid and said in retrospect
he shouldnt have done it. He was cited
for being intoxicated in a public place
and released from jail Tuesday.
I was drinking, but I wasnt really
drunk, Morillo, 47, of Windsor, said
Tuesday. The thing is, Ive been
telling people Im going to swim
across the river for years and theyre
like `yah, yah, blah, blah, you cant
make it. So, I dont know, last night I
just decided it was the time to go.
Morillo said he regrets causing
problems for authorities, including
Windsor police and Coast Guard crews
from the U.S. and Canada. Three boats
and a helicopter responded, The
Detroit News reported, and authorities
warn the rivers current makes a dan-
gerous place to swim.
As soon I saw the helicopters
going by and the boats looking for
me, I was like `oh, this is really stu-
pid, Morillo told The Windsor Star.
Police in Windsor initially respond-
ed around 11:30 p.m., when a neigh-
bor of Morillo called to say she had
lost sight of him about a half-hour ear-
lier.
Morillo made it across to Detroit,
getting out of the water near down-
towns Renaissance Center, and was
swimming back when he was found
about 12:50 a.m. Tuesday by the U.S.
Coast Guard. During his stop on the
Detroit side of the river he said people
wanted to take his picture.
There was one woman, she said she
was from Windsor and she thought I
was crazy, he said. She was right.
Morillo said he was told that hell
also likely be ned for swimming in a
shipping channel, which could be
$5,000 to $25,000.
Rare corpse flower to
bloom at UC Santa Barbara
SANTABARBARA An Indonesian
flower famous for its foul odor is
expected to unfurl its putrid blossom
within the next week at the University
of California, Santa Barbara.
The school says its greenhouse will
be open to the public during the one-
day blooming of the so-called corpse
ower.
Unlike other owers that rely on
bees for pollination, this one counts
on ies. It attracts them with the smell
of rotting flesh, and they in turn
spread its sticky pollen.

Larry Ellison and Steve Jobs will be
inducted into the Bay Area Business Hall of
Fame later this year, the Bay Area Council
announced yesterday.
Ellison, Oracles chief executive ofcer,
and Apple founder Jobs will be enshrined
alongside William Hewlett and David
Packard, Gap Chairman Donald Fisher,
George Lucas, Sun Microsystems Chairman
and co-founder Scott McNealy, Charles
Schwab, Intel co-founder Gordon Moore and
Adobe Systems founder John Warnock,
among many others.
Larry Ellison and Steve Jobs are transfor-
mational, larger-than-life business leaders
whose genius, determination and audacity
have dened and will continue to dene a
Bay Area culture of innovation, entrepre-
neurialism and success that is admired and
emulated around the globe, Bay Area
Council President and CEO Jim Wunderman
wrote in a statement.
Jobs, who died in October 2011, co-
founded Apple in 1977 and served as CEO
and chairman. Ellison co-founded Oracle in
1977 and built the Redwood Shores-based
company into one of the worlds largest
computer hardware and software companies.
Steve Jobs is no
longer with us, but his
influence as the co-
founder and visionary
force behind one of the
worlds most iconic com-
panies and brands places
him among the greatest
business leaders and most
brilliant thinkers of all
time, Wunderman wrote.
Larry Ellison through
his force of will and keen
intellect almost single-
handedly pioneered the
commercial software
industry, ushering in the
age of global e-commerce
and forever changing how
companies do business.
Ellison and Jobs will be
honored at the Bay Area
Councils Annual Dinner and Business Hall of
Fame gala Thursday, Nov. 7 in San Francisco.
The Bay Area Business Hall of Fame was
established in 1995 to celebrate the 50th
anniversary of the founding of the Bay Area
Council, which is a business-sponsored,
public-policy advocacy organization for the
nine-county Bay Area.

Obituary
By Carla K. Johnson
CHICAGO It will make you
stronger. It will give you peace of
mind and make you feel like a win-
ner. Health insurance is what the
whole country has been talking
about, so dont be left out.
Sound like a sales pitch? Get
ready for a lot more. As President
Barack Obamas health care law
moves from theory to reality in
the coming months, its success
may hinge on whether the best
minds in advertising can reach
one of the hardest-to-nd parts of
the population: people without
health coverage.
The campaign wont come
cheap: The total amount to be
spent nationally on publicity,
marketing and advertising will be
at least $684 million, according
to data compiled the Associated
Press from federal and state
sources.
About 16 percent of Americans
are uninsured, but despite years of
political debate and media atten-
tion, more than three-quarters of
them still know little about the
law known as Obamacare,
according to recent surveys.
Its not sugar cereal, beer and
detergent, said Brooke Foley,
chief executive officer of the
Chicago-based Jayne Agency, one
of the advertising rms crafting
messages to reach the uninsured.
The Obama administration and
many states are launching cam-
paigns this summer to get the
word out before enrollment for
new benets begins in October.
The targets are mostly the work-
ing poor, young people who are
disengaged, or those who gave up
their insurance because of the
cost. Three-quarters are white.
Eighty-six percent have a high
school education or less. Together
they make up a blind spot in the
nations health care system.
Theyve been shut out. Its too
expensive and its incredibly con-
fusing, said David Smith of the
advertising agency GMMB,
pitching the health laws benet s
in Washington and Vermont.
Their confusion might only
have been magnified by the
administrations surprise
announcement recently postpon-
ing part of the system that affects
businesses. But that change
should not affect many individu-
als. Abigger complication is that
in about half the states,
Republican governors are declin-
ing to cooperate, which will limit
the marketing.
The states that have been more
receptive to the health care over-
haul and are further ahead in their
planning will receive proportion-
ally more federal money for out-
reach, advertising and marketing
than Republican-led states that
have been hostile to the law.
AP research from all 50 states
shows the amount of government
spending will range from a low of
46 cents per capita in Wisconsin,
which has ceded responsibility
for its health insurance exchange
to the federal government, to
$9.23 per capita in West Virginia,
Marketing Obamacare a big challenge

SACRAMENTO Republican
Andy Vidak has a substantial lead
in the hotly contested race for a
San Joaquin Valley state Senate
seat, with county election offi-
cials reporting Wednesday that
nearly 9,500 ballots remain to be
counted.
While tallying those ballots is
expected to take until the end of
the week, Democrat Leticia Perez
ceded the contest late Wednesday.
The voters have spoken and I
want to congratulate Andy on his
victory, Perez
said in a state-
ment.
Perez also had
conceded the
May primary to
Vidak, only to
learn she had
earned a runoff
when all the
late ballots
were tallied.
Vidaks campaign issued a state-
ment in response, saying he looks
forward to representing the dis-
trict in Sacramento and to working
with Perez, a Kern County supervi-
sor.
Preliminary returns in the 16th
Senate District show Vidak with
54 percent of the vote to Perezs
46 percent. The candidates are sep-
arated by about 5,800 votes.
To overtake Vidak, Perez would
need to win roughly 80 percent of
the outstanding ballots.
Fresno County election ofcials
said they expect to report the
updated tally on Friday. Ofcials
in Kern, Kings and Tulare counties
said they are aiming to have fresh
totals sometime before the end of
the week.
About 5,700 of the outstanding
absentee and provisional ballots
are in Fresno County, where
returns slightly favored Perez. She
also led in Kern, where 2,345
votes remain.
Vidak, a cherry farmer, held wide
margins in his home county of
Kings and in Tulare County, where
a combined 1,433 ballots remain.
Democrats had hoped to hold the
seat to protect their supermajority
status in the Senate, prompting a
ood of campaign contributions
and a urry of negative ads in both
English and Spanish. Each cam-
paign reported raising roughly $2
million.

City employee arrested for stealing gas
Menlo Park police arrested a city employee Tuesday for
allegedly stealing about $1,800 in gasoline from the citys
corporation yard.
Arrested was Juan Alvarez, 51, who worked in the citys
Public Works Department, according to police.
In April of this year, police were advised by the Menlo
Park Public Works Department that there was a suspected
theft of fuel from the city gas pumps. The department initi-
ated an investigation into the possible thefts and discov-

WASHINGTON Borrowing for
tuition, housing and books would be
less expensive for college students and
their parents this fall but the costs
could soon start climbing under a bill
the Senate passed overwhelmingly
Wednesday.
The bipartisan proposal would link
interest rates on federal student loans
to the financial markets, providing
lower interest rates right away but
higher ones later if the economy
improves as expected. The measure
was similar to one that already had
passed the Republican-led House and
leaders from both chambers said they
predicted the differences to be resolved
before students start signing loan doc-
uments for the fall term.
This compromise is a major victory
for our nations students, President
Barack Obama said in a statement.
Undergraduates this fall would bor-
row at a 3.9 percent interest rate.
Graduate students would have access to
loans at 5.4 percent, and parents would
borrow at 6.4 percent. The rates would
be locked in for that years loan, but
each years loan could be more expen-
sive than the last. Rates would rise as
the economy picks up and it becomes
more expensive for the government to
borrow money.
Liberal members of the Democratic
caucus were vocal in their opposition
over the potentially shifting rates
included in the Senate measure, which
passed with support from both parties,
81-18. The bill passed with support
from 45 Republicans, 35 Democrats
and Sen. Angus King, the independent
from Maine who helped negotiate the
deal.
Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, joined 16
Democrats and Sen. Bernie Sanders,
the Vermont independent who caucuses
with Democrats, to oppose the legisla-
tion.
Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., did
not cast a recorded vote.
This permanent, market-based plan
makes students loans cheaper, simpler
and more certain, said Sen. Lamar
Alexander, the top Republican on the
Senate education panel. It ends the
annual game of Congress playing pol-
itics with student loan interest rates at
the expense of students planning their
futures.
Senate passes bill on
student loan rates
The White House and its allies said the new loan structure would offer lower rates
to 11 million borrowers right away and save the average undergraduate $1,500 in
interest charges.

DETROIT A federal judge on
Wednesday swept aside lawsuits chal-
lenging Detroits bankruptcy, settling
the rst major dispute in the scramble
to get a leg up just days after the
largest ling by a local government in
U.S. history.
After two hours of arguments, U.S.
Bankruptcy Judge Steven Rhodes made
clear hes in charge. He granted
Detroits request to put a permanent
freeze on three lawsuits led in Ingham
County, including another judges
extraordinary decision that Gov. Rick
Snyder trampled the Michigan
Constitution and acted illegally in
approving the Chapter 9 ling.
That ruling and others had threatened
to derail the bankruptcy.
Questions about Detroits eligibility
to turn itself around through bankrupt-
cy are within this courts exclusive
jurisdiction, Rhodes said.
He said nothing in federal law or the
U.S. Constitution gives a state court a
dual role. It was a victory for Detroit,
which had warned that it would be
irreparably harmed if it had to deal
with lawsuits in state courts while try-
ing to restructure $18 billion in debt
with thousands of creditors.
Widespread litigation ... can only
confuse the parties, confuse the case
and create serious barriers, attorney
Heather Lennox told the judge.
Creditors will have their day in
court bankruptcy court, she said.
The courtroom was jammed with
lawyers representing creditors as well
as rank-and-le city employees and
retirees eager to know the outcome.
Some wore T-shirts that said, Detroit
vs. Everybody.
Detroit emergency manager Kevyn
Orr, who recommended bankruptcy, sat
in the front row for part of the hearing.

WASHINGTON Door-to-door mail
delivery is about as American as apple pie.
With the Postal Service facing billions of
dollars in annual losses, that tradition could
be virtually phased out by 2022 under a pro-
posal in Congress.
The House Oversight and Government
Reform Committee on Wednesday approved
a plan to move to cluster box and curbside
delivery, which includes mailboxes at the
end of driveways.
The proposal is part of broader legislation
by Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., chairman of
the oversight and government reform panel,
designed to cut costs at the cash-strapped
agency by up to $4.5 billion a year. The
Postal Service had a $16 billion loss last
year.
The bill was approved on a party-line vote,
with 22 Republicans supporting it and 17
Democrats opposing it.
Postal Service spokesman David
Partenheimer said the agency would evaluate
Issas bill based on whether it would enable
the agency to make $20 billion in savings
by 2017.
The Postal Service looks forward to work-
ing with Chairman Issa and the committee to
improve the bill as it makes its way through
the legislative process, Partenheimer said.
The agency has been moving toward curb-
side and cluster box delivery in new residen-
tial developments since the 1970s. The
Postal Service in April began deciding
whether to provide such delivery for people
moving into newly built homes rather than
letting the developers decide.
Abalanced approach to saving the Postal
Service means allowing USPS to adapt to
Americas changing use of mail, Issa said.
Done right, these reforms can improve the
customer experience through a more efcient
Postal Service.
About 1 in 3 mail customers has door-to-
door delivery, Issa said. The shift would
include safe and secure cluster box delivery
areas, he said, especially for elderly cus-
tomers who receive Social Security checks
and prescriptions through the mail.
About 30 million residential addresses
receive delivery to boxes at the door or a
mail slot. Another 87 million residential
addresses receive curbside or cluster box
delivery.
The cost differences are clear. Curbside
delivery costs average $224 per year for each
address, while cluster box delivery averages
$160. Door-to-door delivery costs the
agency about $350 per year, on average.
Sue Brennan, a Postal Service spokes-
woman, said, While converting delivery
away from the door to curb or centralized
delivery would allow the Postal Service to
deliver mail to more addresses in less time,
doing so is not included in our ve-year
plan.
Google wants to bring

$600,000 grant to fund the initiative,
Supervisor Mark Farrell said. Another
group, the San Francisco Citizens Initiative
for Technology and Innovation, will install
and maintain the network with the San

By providing free Wi-Fi in almost every
corner of the city, we can further open up the
doors of education, innovation, and inclu-
sivity to every resident and visitor who
takes advantage of our world-class parks,

Florida woman arrested
in alleged voodoo scam
SUNNYVALE AMiami woman is facing

The 33-year-old
Peaches Miller is sched-

tion hearing.
Santa Clara County

counts of grand theft and one count of extor-
tion in connection with the alleged scam on
a Sunnyvale woman. She was arrested in
Florida on Saturday.
According to court documents, the

Authorities say she believed only Miller

checks for thousands of dollars from 2002
to 2010.

Prince William and his wife, Kate, selected the name George
Alexander Louis for their son.
By George!
Britains little prince gets a name
By Jill Lawless and Cassandra Vinograd
LONDON The little prince has a name: George
Alexander Louis.
The announcement Wednesday that Prince William and
his wife, Kate, had selected a moniker steeped in British
history came as royal ofcials suggested the new parents
are seeking quiet time away from the ashbulbs and frenzy
that accompanied the birth of their rst child.
While the news put to rest intense curiosity over what
name the couple would choose, the timing and interest
around it show how the 2-day-old future heir is already on
his way to a lifetime of fanfare and public glare.
Kensington Palace on Wednesday said William and Kate
were delighted to announce their sons name, adding that
baby will be known as His Royal Highness Prince George
of Cambridge.
The name George borne by six previous kings bet s
the boy now third in line to the British throne and was a
favorite among British bookmakers. It was the name cho-
sen for his reign by Queen Elizabeth IIs father, George VI,
who rallied the nation during World War II.
Alexander is a name shared by three medieval Scottish
kings, and the name Louis could be a tribute to Lord Louis
Mountbatten, uncle to the queens husband, Philip, and the
last British Viceroy of India before that nation gained its
independence in 1947. Williams father, Prince Charles,
was close to Mountbatten, who was assassinated by the
Irish Republican Army in 1979.
The announcement of the name, just two days after the
babys birth, was quick by royal standards. Elizabeth and
Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, took a month before set-
tling on the name Charles for the Prince of Wales. Charles
and his then-wife, Princess Diana, took a week before set-
tling on Williams four names.
While it is normally the case that a king rules under his
given name, precedent shows that the prince is not hide-
bound by George. The rst name of George VI was actually
Albert, but he picked his fourth name to use as sovereign in
honor of his father, George V.

NEW YORK Anthony Weiner
pressed ahead with his bid for mayor
Wednesday despite growing calls for
him to drop out over a new sexting
scandal, saying the campaign is too
important to abandon over embar-
rassing personal things becoming
public.
Rivals, newspaper editorial pages
and at least one former New York con-
gressional colleague urged the
Democrat to quit the race a day after he
acknowledged exchanging raunchy
messages and photos online even after
the same sort of behavior destroyed
his congressional career two years
ago.
I think he should pull out of the
race. I think he needs serious psychi-
atric help, Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-
N.Y.
Weiner brushed off such calls and
kept up his campaign schedule. He was
greeted with boos as he took the stage
to speak at a public housing meeting
Wednesday evening, but by the end of
his remarks, the crowd loudly cheered.
I thought these things would come
out by the end of the campaign, and
some of them have. Look, I am press-
ing forward, running a campaign about
the issues, and Im getting a good
response, he said afterward.
The latest scandal erupted Tuesday
after the gossip website The Dirty
posted X-rated messages and a crotch
shot it said he exchanged with a
woman last year while using the
online alias Carlos Danger.
At a news conference Tuesday
evening, Weiner, who has been a
favorite in the polls since he launched
his political comeback attempt in late
May, stood side-by-side with his clear-
ly uncomfortable wife, Huma Abedin,
and said he hoped the voters would
give him another chance.
Abedin, a longtime adviser to former
Secretary of State Hillary Rodham
Clinton, reafrmed her love and sup-
port for her husband and said the matter
was between us.
Two of the citys major newspapers,
The New York Times and the Daily
News, said the 48-year-old Democrat
had exhausted his opportunities for
forgiveness with his latest indiscre-
tions.

APARECIDA, Brazil Pope Francis
made an emotional plea Wednesday for
Roman Catholics to shun materialism
in the rst public Mass of his initial
international trip as pontiff, then met
with drug addicts and denounced the
dealers of death who fuel their suffer-
ing.
On his rst full day of activities in
Brazil, Francis traveled from one of the
most important
shrines in Latin
America, Our Lady of
Aparecida, to what
he called a shrine of
human suffering
a hospital in Rio de
Janeiro that treats
substance abusers.
Both encounters
had a common
theme that the humble pope has stressed
during his young papacy: a denuncia-
tion of the ephemeral idols of money
and power and a need for the Catholic
Church to focus on the poor and outcasts
of society.
Francis started his day traveling to
Aparecida, where thousands packed into
the huge Basilica of the Shrine of Our
Lady of Aparecida in an agricultural
region of verdant elds between Rio and
Sao Paolo. Tens of thousands more
braved a cold rain outside to catch a
glimpse of the rst pope from the
Americas returning to a shrine of great
meaning to the continent and to Francis
himself.

MADRID A passenger train
derailed on a high-speed stretch of
track in northwestern Spain on
Wednesday night, killing at least
35 people and leaving dozens
injured in the countrys worst rail
accident in decades, ofcials said.
Officials gave different death
tolls in the immediate aftermath of
the accident. Alberto Nunez
Feijoo, president of the region of
Galicia, said at least 35 people
aboard the train were killed.
Spains leading Cadena SER
radio station cited the president of
the Galicias main court, Miguel
Angel Cadenas, at the scene say-
ing 56 people were killed, but that
could not be independently con-
rmed. The station said three car-
riages had still to be inspected by
rescue workers.
State-owned train operator Renfe
said in a statement that 218 pas-
sengers and an unspecied number
of staff were on board at the time of
the accident. Renfe, which did not
give a death or injury toll, said the
derailment happened at 8.41 p.m.
(1841 GMT) along a high-speed
section that had been inaugurated
just two years ago.
The SER radio station cited
unnamed local government of-
cials as saying 100 people were
injured but there were no details on
the severity of the injuries.
Feast day festivities planned in
the city of Santiago de
Compostela, outside of which the
train derailed, were cancelled, town
hall spokeswoman Maria Pardo
told Spanish National television
TVE.
Sergio Prego, a passenger on the
train, told the SER, The train was
going at a very fast speed and in
the curve it went off the tracks, it
overturned. We were the lucky ones
that were able to get out on our
own feet.
Victims? For sure. I have no
idea but there must be an awful
lot, he said.
Aphotographer at the scene said
he saw dozens of what appeared to
be dead bodies being extracted
from the wreck by emergency
workers. TVE showed footage of
what appeared to be several bodies
covered by blankets alongside the
tracks next to the damaged train
wagons and rescue workers enter-
ing toppled carriages through bro-
ken windows.
The photographer, Xabier
Martinez, told the Associated
Press that he also spoke to two
injured train passengers who said
they felt a strong vibration before
the derailing.
The accident occurred near the
train station in Santiago de
Compostela, 95 kilometers (60
miles) south of El Ferrol, the nal
destination. Rescue workers were
also seen in the television images
caring for people still inside some
of the wagons.
Television footage showed one
wagon pointing upwards into the
air with one of its ends twisted and
disgured. Another carriage that
had been severed in two could be
seen lying on a road near the track.
The train, which belongs to the
state-owned Renfe company, had
started its journey in Madrid.
Although it was not an AVE high
speed train, it was a relatively lux-
urious version that uses the same
track as Spains fastest expresses.
It was Spains deadliest train
accident in decades. In 1944, a
train traveling from Madrid to
Galicia crashed and killed 78 peo-
ple. Another accident in 1972 left
77 dead on a track to southwestern
Seville, according to Spanish
news agency Europa Press.

I
f San Mateo County Manager John
Maltbie fully understood the role of
the civil grand jury and why and how
it functions, he would not be so quick to
criticize and conclude there is a cloak of
secrecy surrounding the civil grand jury.
Instead, he should welcome aid in ensuring
good government, which is precisely why
the California civil grand jury system
exists.
As former forepersons of the San Mateo
County Civil Grand Jury, it was dishearten-
ing to read the county managers wrong and
misinformed statements in his July 23
Daily Journal guest perspective Pull back
curtain on grand jury secrecy. They were
particularly perplexing considering he has
been the county manager for many years
and, thus, should be familiar with why the
California civil grand jury exists, the criti-
cal role it plays to ensure good government
and the processes used to help the grand
jury function as a citizens watchdog group.
Grand juries have existed in California
for more than 150 years since the adoption
of the original state Constitution in 1849-
50. Each grand jury is under the supervi-
sion of a local California Superior Court
judge. Throughout its one-year term of
ofce, the civil grand jury receives advice
and counsel from the County Counsel
Ofce. The County Counsels Ofce and the
presiding grand jury judge review every
nal report.
The county manager is correct that the 58
counties civil grand juries can be one of
the most potentially powerful civil institu-
tions in California. However, he is wrong
by saying that it is cloaked in a veil of
secrecy. Grand jurors are subject to court
rules and sworn to condentiality. If con-
dentiality is breached, they can be held in
contempt of court. Just because the county
manager does not control or like the rules
does not mean the grand jury is a discredit-
ed and ineffective body. In fact, the oppo-
site is true. The court rules by which the
grand jury abides enable and empower it to
do its best work, without the bullying
voice, political agenda, heavy hand or arm
twisting of government ofcials elected
or employed.
Many wonder how one is selected to be
on the civil grand jury. To be clear, grand
jurors are not chosen in secret, as incor-
rectly stated by the county manager. In
fact, nothing could be further from the
truth. Notices are publicized in newspa-
pers, inviting people to apply. Residents
are also recommended by elected ofce-
holders or contact the court. The presiding
judge of the grand jury interviews each
prospective juror, helping him/her under-
stand the expectations and time commit-
ments. The nal step in the one-year term
selection process is a summons issued by
the court for a random drawing of names in
the judges courtroom similar to jury
selection in a civil or criminal trial and is
open to anyone. The court reporter makes a
transcript, including grand jurors names,
recorded with the Superior Court. The civil
grand jury foreperson is chosen by the pre-
siding grand jury judge. To claim that the
civil grand jury is chosen in secret is
wrong and misleading.
Grand jurors come from diverse back-
grounds. As a truly independent body, each
grand jury is free to address any local gov-
ernmental entity or public ofceholder.
Under state law, at least one published
report must be written by the end of the
county scal year. With very limited excep-
tions, no one outside the grand jury can
direct it to conduct an investigation. Ideas
for investigations generally come from cit-
izen complaints, matters raised by grand
jurors and referrals from the preceding
grand jury.
The grand jury analyzes whether a gov-
ernment agency is operating in a busi-
nesslike manner and providing public serv-
ices effectively and economically. The
grand jury seeks to identify and interview
individuals with expert knowledge and
diverse views. There would be a chilling
impact without the guarantee of conden-
tiality. The grand jury typically provides
its data to the government agency being
investigated prior to publishing a report to
ensure errors have not been made. Also,
every proposed report is reviewed in detail
and must be formally approved by at least
12 of 19 jurors.
Relevant data is published along with its
recommendations. Written responses are
required from the agencies subject to grand
jury recommendations. If the county man-
ager is unhappy with a report or disagrees
with its ndings, he may simply respond
with his version of the facts. That response
is available along with the grand jury
report at
http://www.sanmateocourt.org/court_divi-
sions/grand_jury/.
We serve because we believe in furthering
good government. There is no more a cul-
ture of secrecy as the county manager
alleges, than exists with respect to any
function of local government itself.
Public agencies and elected ofceholders
may not like what they hear or read, espe-
cially when there is a hard, honest look at
how improvements must be made to ensure
good government. However, that does not
justify an incorrect depiction of civil grand
juries as cloaked in secrecy, especially
by a county manager who should know bet-
ter. Civil grand juries are beholden to the
people not to elected bodies, govern-
ment employees or public agencies.

Sex registration requirement
Editor,
There seems to be a clear pattern of
behavior between our San Mateo County
District Attorneys Ofce and defendants to
avoid or waive the sex registration require-
ments once a plea of no contest or guilt
has been established. The San Mateo
County Superior Court should not waive
the sex registration requirement. Aformer
custodian and coach at a Belmont middle
school accused of groping two female stu-
dents on campus was sentenced nine
months in jail. The defendant must attend
sex offender treatment but is not required to
register despite placing his hands down
the pants of a 13-year-old and fondling
another student, as reported in Former
Belmont middle school coach sentenced for
annoying children, in the July 13 edition
of the Daily Journal.
Other examples of waived sexual registra-
tion requirements: Asex offender arrested
in Menlo Park pleaded no contest to
charges he committed lewd and lascivious
acts with a child under the age of 14; a
Burlingame man who had consensual sex
multiple times with a 12-year-old girl he
met at a bus stop was sentenced to six
months in jail [and] does not have to regis-
ter as a sex offender; a 20-year-old taek-
wondo instructor who performed a sex act
with a 13-year-old girl he considered his
girlfriend told police he had performed a
sex act with the girl to celebrate their four-
month anniversary; a Foster City masseur
is not required to register as a sex offender
... [he] inappropriately touched and orally
copulated a female client.
The sex registration requirement should
not be negotiated out of a sentence.

The truth about the civil grand jury Stranger danger
I
n politics, there are losers and there
are winners.And then there is
Weiner.
Former U.S. representative and New York
City mayoral hopeful Anthony Weiner is at
it again, sharing with female fans more
than the naked truth about his health care
reform plan. Under the nom de plume
Carlos Danger, Weiner made good on the
adage that if at rst you dont succeed at
sexting women other than your wife, you
should resign, beg forgiveness and try
again.
However, this
ol college try
apparently didnt
extend to picking
a fake name that
doesnt bring a
batch of snickers
beyond those cre-
ated by his actual
moniker. Weiner
is a pretty unfor-
tunate surname
considering the
topic although
its been a boon
for headline writers and late-night comics
but Carlos Danger? Danger is certainly
tting but the complete handle sounds more
like a B-rate wanna-be spy rather than a
grown man masquerading as cool porno-
graphic superstar. Or, take a nod from foot-
baller and dog ghter Michael Vick. He
opted for Ron Mexico which should have
tipped off anybody he was up to no good.
Bobby Norway now thats an alias that
just screams being on the up and up.
But back to Danger, I mean Weiner. He
should know the porn name rule of using
the name of ones rst pet and the street
name of ones childhood. Heck, maybe he
had a puppy named Carlos and grew up on
Danger Street. He certainly travels down it
enough now.
Meanwhile, Eliot Spitzer is somewhere
either a) cheering because his tarnished rep-
utation suddenly has a new sheen in com-
parison to his nearest opponent in the sec-
ond-chance politician category, or b) sweat-
ing profusely and hoping nobody gures
out that Client Nine has moved on to being
somebody elses Client Ten or Twelve.
The real problem for Weiner is that he is a
politician for a different time. Atime, that
is, when taking a candid photo of ones
junk and sharing it with another person or
people took a little more effort and provid-
ed ample time for reection. Prior to camera
phones and the Internet, the process went
something like this: Have idea that some-
body else would actually want to see ones
man or lady parts up close and personal,
fetch camera, check for lm, snap photo,
actually snap a couple because there is no
immediate way to tell if the ash worked or
the shot was in focus, drop lm off at the
local drug store for developing an hour
at the fastest! pick up lm, again consid-
er the intelligence of this decision, put the
picture in an envelope, buy a stamp if per-
sonal drop-off is not an option and nally
deliver. Whew! The onerous multiple steps
alone was enough to give the sender pause
and decide a little heavy breathing on the
phone might do the trick instead. Even the
advent of the Polaroid didnt speed up the
process that much. Maybe thats why earli-
er sex scandals only involved interns, wide
stances or prostitutes. Much easier all
around.
But Weiner lives in the cyber world Al
Gore built and he better learn how to better
balance his fetishes with his aspirations.
Of course, if hes so hell-bent on remaining
in politics, perhaps Weiner should make a
beeline for San Diego because his foibles
look pretty vanilla compared to the allega-
tions of sexual harassment lodged at the
current mayor.
Or, maybe pack up and head to Missouri
where his predilections might be a perfect
t. After all, it is the Show-Me State.

Big movers

NEW YORK A gloomy outlook
from Caterpillar, the worlds largest
construction equipment company,
tugged the stock market lower
Wednesday.
The meager drop gave the stock mar-
ket two consecutive days of losses, the
rst time thats happened in an other-
wise strong month.
Caterpillars earnings fell 43 per-
cent in the second quarter as Chinas
economy slowed and commodity
prices sank. The company also warned
of slowing revenue and prot, and its
stock dropped $2.08, or 2 percent, to
$83.44.
Slight losses spread across a wide
variety of companies, with nine of 10
industry groups in the Standard &
Poors 500 index ending lower.
The holdouts were technology com-
panies, which got a lift from Apples
surging stock. Despite reporting lower
quarterly earnings Tuesday, the maker
of tablets, smartphones and computers
still managed to beat analysts esti-
mates, thanks to rising shipments of
iPhones. Apple jumped $21.52, or 5
percent, to $440.51.
The Dow Jones industrial average
fell 25.50 points, or 0.2 percent, at
15,542.24.
The Standard & Poors 500 index fell
6.45 points, or 0.4 percent, to
1, 685. 94. The technology-heavy
Nasdaq composite index edged up 0.33
of a point, or less than 0.1 percent, to
3,579.60.
Although far from a blockbuster
earnings season, the larger trend for
corporate prots looks good. Analysts
forecast that second-quarter earnings
for companies in the S&P 500
increased 4.2 percent over the same
period last year, according to S&P
Capital IQ. At the start of the month,
they were looking for earnings to rise
2.8 percent. More than six out of every
10 companies have surpassed Wall
Streets prot targets.
Yes, theyre beating expectations,
but expectations are so low, said Brad
McMillan, chief investment ofcer at
Commonwealth Financial. The overall
number masks some worrisome trends,
he said.
Financial firms, such as Goldman
Sachs and Capital One, have posted
the highest rate of earnings growth of
any industry. Pull their results out of
the total, however, and earnings are on
track to slump 3.5 percent, according
to FactSet.
You cant call this a blowout quarter
so far, McMillan said.
Another 25 big companies, includ-
ing Visa and Qualcomm, released
reports after the closing bell. Among
them, Facebook surged 14 percent to
$30.31 in after-hours trading after
reporting income and revenue that eas-
ily beat estimates.
Surging demand for pickup trucks in
the U.S. helped Ford Motor post high-
er quarterly prots. Sales in China also
jumped 47 percent in the first six
months of the year. The second-largest
car company in the U.S. raised its prof-
it forecast and its stock climbed 43
cents, or 3 percent, to $17.37.
AT&T dropped 41 cents, or 1 per-
cent, to $35.40. Higher costs hit
AT&Ts prots in the latest quarter.
The companys coffers were drained by
smartphone sales, which it subsidizes
in the hope of making money back
over the life of two-year contracts.
In Europe, a broad gauge of econom-
ic activity reached the highest level
since January 2012, sending stock
markets in Germany and France high-
er. Financial information company
Markit said Wednesday that its month-
ly purchasing managers index for the
countries that use the euro currency
increased for the fourth month run-
ning.
Frances CAC 40 rose 1 percent and
Germanys DAX gained 0.8 percent.
The report out of Europe pushed
prices for U.S. government bonds
down and their yields up.
Grim Caterpillar outlook tugs stocks mostly lower

LOS ANGELES Visa Inc. returned to a
prot in its scal third quarter, aided by
strong revenue growth as it processed more
charge and debit card transactions world-
wide.
The results topped Wall Street estimates
and its shares rose more than 2 percent in
after-hours trading on Wednesday.
The company also said its board author-
ized a share buyback program of $1.5 bil-
lion. And it raised its full-year adjusted earn-
ings and revenue growth outlook.
Visa doesnt issue cards. The company,
based in Foster City, Calif., is the worlds
largest processor of debit and credit-card
payments, and makes money from process-
ing card transactions. As such, it benet s
from heightened consumer spending.
This year, the U.S. economy is showing
more robust signs of growth, with employ-
ers having added an average 202,000 jobs
the past six months, up from 180,000 in the
previous six. The housing market is also
gaining strength. And consumer condence
last month reached the highest level since
January 2008, according to the Conference
Board.
Those factors have helped boost con-
dence among consumers, making them more
willing to spend. People have been slow,
however, to return to spending with credit
cards. There are signs, however, that that
may be changing.
Visa returns to profit in
3Q as revenue expands
By Barbara Ortutay
SAN FRANCISCO Facebooks stock is
ying high after the worlds biggest social
network posted higher revenue from mobile
ads and delivered a healthy second-quarter
prot that reversed a loss in the same period
a year ago.
The results, which come on the heels of
weaker-than-expected results from online
search leader Google Inc., signal that
Facebooks aggressive push into the mobile
advertising market continues to pay off. The
company began showing mobile advertise-
ments for the rst time last spring. On
Wednesday, Facebook said mobile ads
accounted for a whopping 41 percent of its
total advertising revenue.
The Menlo Park, Calif.-based companys
stock jumped $4.48, or 17 percent, to
$30.99 in extended trading. The shares had
closed the regular trading session at
$26.51. Facebooks stock priced at $38
when the company went public in May
2012, but hasnt hit that range since.
Im completely surprised, said Gartner
analyst Brian Blau, summing up the senti-
ments of many investors whove watched
Facebooks stock price stagnate over the
past year due in large part to concerns about
its mobile prospects.
I was actually thinking that maybe they
would have a soft quarter, he added, citing a
softening of display advertising revenue
Facebooks bread and butter across the
industry. That seems not to be the case.
Facebook Inc. it earned $333 million, or
13 cents per share, in the April-June period.
Thats up from a loss of $157 million, or 8
cents per share, in the same period a year
ago. Adjusted earnings were $488 million,
or 19 cents per share in the latest quarter,
above the 14 cents that analysts were
expecting.

With their hopes set on recaptur-
ing the prestige once held by the
city, the Millbrae Joe DiMaggio
head found itself on e win away
from winning the World Series.
But, it just wasnt meant to be.
The Millbrae Mavericks, co-
managed by Robbie Garrison,
were unable to handle the momen-
tum of the Tri-City Gamblers.
Having already beaten two
teams in back to back nights to
stay alive in the tournament, Tri-
City rode its heat and swept
Millbrae to capture the Joe
DiMaggio World Series.
After advancing to the champi-
onship series of the Peninsula
League tournament in 2012, only
to fall to San Carlos, Millbrae was
determined to not only win the
Peninsula League title, but make a
legitimate push for the Joe
DiMaggio World Series champi-
onship.
It nished with an 18-3 record
this season in league play, nish-
ing in a three-way atop the
Peninsula League standings with
Pacica and San Carlos. It then
captured the Peninsula League
tournament title to punch its tick-
et to the World Series.
In the World Series, Millbrae
rolled through the winners brack-
et and set themselves up nicely
come the Series final on
Wednesday.

Landon Donovan of the United States celebrates his goal during the USMNTs 3-1 over Honduras Wednesday night.The U.S.moves on to the
Gold Cup nals where they will face Panama who upset CONCACAF power Mexico 2-1.
ARLINGTON, Texas By even the very
high standards of coach Jurgen Klinsmann,
Landon Donovan is regaining top form
after taking a break from the national team.
Donovan scored two goals and set up
another on Wednesday night, helping the
United States beat Honduras 3-1 to advance
to the CONCACAF Gold Cup nal.
Klinsmann said the performance was
wonderful to watch.
I have told him in our conversations that
I measure you. Your benchmark is the best
Landon Donovan ever, Klinsmann said.
Im not taking anything less than that.
And he is trying to catch up with that. Give
him more games. Give him time.
While Klinsmann has declined to conrm
that Donovan will be rejoining the World
Cup qualifying team later this year, the top
goal scorer in U.S. history is leaving little
doubt that he belongs.
Donovan has ve goals in the tourna-
ment, tying him with teammate Chris
Wondolowski for most in the Gold Cup.
Donovan has set up seven goals, including
four in the last two games.
Entering the game, he was the only U.S.
player to play every minute of the tourna-
ment. He nally was subbed out in the 72nd
minute, having earned a rest.
Its the most relaxed Ive felt, Donovan
said. I feel good, and Im really enjoying
it.
The Americans will play the winner of the
Panama-Mexico match on Sunday in
Chicago. The U.S. has won a team-record 10
straight games.

The San Mateo White Sox, an 18-and-
under team that plays in the Palomino
Division of PONY Baseball, put together
one of the nest seasons in program histo-
ry this summer, yet fell short of the district
tournament title.
The teams 1-2 record in the tournament
did not dampen manager Lenny Souzas sat-
isfaction with a 25-5 regular season.
This is one of our better records and one
of our better summer seasons, Souza said.
We just struggled in the playoffs. In the
playoffs, we just didnt have the bats to do
it. When you get to the losers bracket, its
tough.
I compare it to March Madness. You have
to be prepared to reel off six or seven wins
in a row (to win a tournament title).
Bobby Seghal took the mound in San
Mateos tournament opener last week
against South Bay Legacy, one of the
strongest teams in the eld despite being a
No. 4 seed.
They had two losses in the regular sea-
son and we had three, Souza said. And we
beat them (during the regular season). I
was hoping to get a one or a two seed and
get an [easier] game to start (the tourna-
ment).
San Mateo was the No. 3 seed.
Legacy got its revenge despite a strong
outing from Seghal, a former Terra Nova
standout, beating San Mateo 3-2.
The White Sox rebounded in the losers
bracket, clubbing host Santa Cruz 8-0
behind a complete-game effort from former
South City High product Joey Marcucci.
San Mateo couldnt sustain that level of
play, however, and saw its season end with a

Commissioner Bud Selig
defended the leagues drug-test-
ing protocol a couple days after
Milwaukee Brewers slugger Ryan Braun
was suspended for the rest of the season
because of performance-enhancing drugs.
Many may look at Selig and see exam-
ple No. 1 of why, after years of battling
PEDs, the game of baseball is still not
clean. He has always been seen as a do-
nothing commissioner, one who is reac-
tive instead of proactive.
Baseball owners are the second-most
blamed culprit in the
failed war to rid the
game of PEDs. Why
would they want to
see players stop hit-
ting 500-foot home
runs or linebacker-
sized pitchers throw-
ing in the high 90s?
The fans love it.
They cant get
enough of it and
they will pay to
watch it.
In actuality, it is
probably the players who should have
their feet held to the re.
If the general rank and le of the MLB
Players Union the clean ones are
really intent of getting cheaters out of
the game, they need to speak up and start
demanding real, hard changes be made.
The rst one I can think of is make it a
rule of MLB that as a standard in any con-
tract, failing a drug test voids a contract
and, on rst failed test, an automatic one-
year ban. Asecond failed test? Two-year
ban. Athird test failure is a lifetime ban
from all professional baseball activi-
ties, which would include coaching, front
ofce, scout, broadcaster, anything.
Want to get tough on drug use in any
sport? Threaten the players with their
jobs. That will get their attention.
Granted, there would be a ton of legal
and logistical hoops to jump through and
a lot I mean ALOT of people would

SANTA CLARA Safety Donte Whitner
has already spoken to San Francisco 49ers
teammate Ahmad Brooks ahead of training
camp about the importance of making smart
decisions off the football eld.
Last week, the Santa Clara County district
attorneys ofce declined to pursue assault
charges against Brooks because of insuf-
cient evidence in an investigation into alle-
gations that the linebacker repeatedly hit
teammate Lamar Divens on the head with a
beer bottle in a June altercation at Brooks
home.
While Brooks wasnt made available to
media Wednesday when veterans for the
Super Bowl runner-up Niners reported to
team headquarters, Whitner said he expects
good things from Brooks and hopes every-
one can move forward
without this distraction.
Hes tremendously
sorry for what he did,
anybody would be embar-
rassed, Whitner said. I
talked to Ahmad. He
explained the situation, I
gave him my input on it
and we left it at that. ...
He just has to move on
and make sure he continues to make the right
choices from this point on, hell be OK.
General manager Trent Baalke wouldnt
say whether Brooks might face disciplinary
action from the team, and it is unclear what
action the NFL might take, if any.
Once again, the discussion we have with
Ahmad or any of our players is within the
team, within the building, Baalke said.
Brooks was never arrested. According to
police, he hit Divens
with the bottle three
times and then punched
him in the face during an
early morning argument
June 8. Divens was left
with a 3-inch cut on his
forehead, according to
police statements.
The police reports also
said Brooks, Divens and
others had been drinking and went to a bar
before returning to Brooks house. Divens
pretended to throw Brooks keys in the
grass, though he had actually held onto the
keys, prompting the attack, according to
the reports. Investigators were told Brooks
was intoxicated and had threatened to get a
gun.
You talk to those guys pretty much one
on one, private conversations, you dont
really put it out there for everybody to see or
everybody to know, Whitner said. Its just
choices that you make outside of here. Its a
bad choice that he made. Hes going to have
to pay for that. We dont know what its
going to be yet. He understands (making)
good choices. Were a good football team, a
lot of eyes are on us now, even more than
last year and the year before. You have to
make good decisions, hang out with the
right people, make good choices and hes
going to do that from here on out.
While Whitner has been supportive help-
ing Brooks through his off-eld business,
he is hopeful that his own unsettled contract
situation will in time work out so that he
stays with the 49ers beyond this season.
The eighth-year defensive back is begin-
ning the nal year of an $11.75 million,
three-year deal he signed before the 2011
season.

HOUSTON Coco Crisp hit a two-run
homer in Oaklands three-run seventh
inning to help the Athletics to a 4-3 win
over the Houston Astros on Wednesday.
The As trailed by two before an RBI dou-
ble by Eric Sogard with one out cut the lead
to 3-2 and chased starter Bud Norris. Crisp
launched his home run off Travis Blackley
(1-1) to the Crawford Boxes in left eld to
put Oakland on top.
John Jaso had a solo homer in the rst
inning for the As, who have won 11 of 12
against Houston this season.
A.J. Grifn (9-7) allowed six hits and
three runs and tied a season-high with eight
strikeouts in 6 1-3
innings for the win.
He continued to be
plagued by the long ball
though, giving up two
more on Wednesday to
give him 23 this season
which is tied for second-
most in the majors.
Jose Altuve tied it at 1
with a homer in the
fourth inning and Carlos Corporans two-
run homer gave Houston a 3-1 lead in the
sixth.
Norris yielded four hits and three runs
with seven strikeouts in 6 1-3 innings. It
could be the last start for Norris as an Astro
at Minute Maid Park with the trade deadline
approaching and Houston embarking on a
10-game road trip Wednesday.
As the highest paid player on this rebuild-
ing team with a $3 million salary, Norris,
who has spent his entire career with the
Astros, has been the subject of trade specu-
lation.
Norris pitched better on Wednesday than
he had in his last two tough starts where he
allowed 17 hits and 13 runs combined in
two losses.
The Astros had a chance to tie it in the
eighth inning with runners at rst and sec-
ond and one out. But Jesse Chavez retired
Corporan before Ryan Cook came in and
got Brett Wallace on a yout to end the
threat. Cook remained in for the ninth and
got his second save.
Jasos homer to with one out in the rst
inning gave Oakland a 1-0 lead. Norris got
right back on track after that and struck out
Josh Donaldson and Jed Lowrie to end the
inning.
Grifn didnt allow a hit until Marc Krauss
singled with two outs in the third inning.
Altuve opened Houstons fourth with his
fourth home run of the season to tie it.
Jason Castro hit a double with one-out in
the sixth before Corporans two-out shot to
the seats in right eld put Houston up 3-1.
Norris had retired seven in a row before
Jaso walked to start the sixth inning. Norris
then plunked Josh Donaldson, but he
escaped the jam by sitting down the next
three batters, ending the inning by striking
out Brandon Moss.

SAN FRANCISCO Mike Leake pitched
six-plus innings of wildly effective ball and
had the third three-hit game of his career,
leading the Cincinnati Reds past the San
Francisco Giants 8-3 on Wednesday night.
Leake (10-4) allowed a career-high 12 hits
but gave up just one run. He also snapped an
0-for-26 skid his longest hitless streak
with two singles and a double.
Joey Votto, Brandon Phillips and Devin
Mesoraco each drove in two runs to power
the Reds to another impressive win against
the reigning World Series champions. After
allowing San Francisco to rally from an 0-2
decit to win the NL division series last
October, Cincinnati nished 6-1 against the
Giants this season and most of the wins
werent even close.
The Reds outscored San Francisco 45-14,
including Homer Baileys no-hitter on July
2. They also outscored the Giants 31-11 in
four games this week at AT&T Park.
In the nale, the Giants had 15 hits
including ve singles by Hunter Pence
but were 4-for-16 with runners in scoring
position and stranded 15 on base. Adding to
the embarrassment, even the chalk that
makes up the batters box was off-center.
Buster Posey was out of the starting line-
up after playing rst base in the opener and
catching the second game of Tuesdays dou-
bleheader.
He grounded into a elders choice as a
pinch-hitter in the seventh, when the
Giants loaded the bases with no outs before
reliever Sam LeCure shut them down.
Chad Guadin (4-2) gave up six runs and
seven hits in 3 2-3 innings in his worst
and shortest start of the year for San
Francisco. He also allowed a season-high
ve walks.
In the last regular-season matchup of this
one-sided series, the formula remained the
same: early runs and patchwork pitching for
a runaway Reds win.
Shin-Soo Choo hit a leadoff double,
advanced to third on a groundout by Xavier
Paul and scored on Vottos yout to give
Cincinnati a 1-0 lead in the rst inning.
In the third, Votto scored from rst when
Pence missed Phillips two-out single to
right eld.

NAPA Second-round offensive tackle
Menelik Watson signed his rookie contract
with the Oakland Raiders on Wednesday
leaving rst-round cornerback D.J. Hayden
as the teams only unsigned draft pick.
Watson signed his deal hours after most of
the rest of the rookies, undrafted free agents
and other young players led off two buses
as they arrived for a one-month stay at
training camp in wine country.
Watson is a converted basketball from
England who played one year of junior col-
lege football and one year at Florida State
before being drafted by the Raiders. While
he is considered somewhat raw as a player
he will be given a chance to compete for the
starting right tackle job with incumbent
Khalif Barnes.
Hayden is the last of the 10 picks who
needs to sign a contract with Oakland before
the rst training camp practice starts on
Friday. It still remains to be seen whether
Hayden will be able to participate right
away even if he does sign after undergoing
offseason abdominal surgery.
Haydens offseason got cut short when he
needed surgery in late May to remove scar
tissue from the abdominal region. That
operation came months after a near-fatal
practice injury that ended his college career
at Houston early.
Hayden was rushed into surgery last
November for a tear of the inferior vena
cava, the large vein that carries blood from
the lower half of the body to the heart, after
a collision in practice. Doctors had to cut
through Haydens sternum to save him. The
injury is 95 percent fatal in the eld, accord-
ing to doctors, and is most commonly asso-
ciated with high-speed motor vehicle acci-
dents.
The Raiders still selected Hayden 12th
overall with their rst rst-round pick since
2010 after doctors cleared him to resume
playing football. The team said at the time
of the offseason surgery that Hayden was
expected to be back for camp but nothing
will be ofcial until after he signs his con-
tract.
The rest of the rookie class has signed,
including fourth-round quarterback Tyler
Wilson, who nalized his deal on Tuesday
and got to camp with the rest of his team-
mates a day later.
I knew it was going to be worked out,
Wilson said. Glad we got that nished.
Now its about moving on toward camp and
guring out a way to win games. So, thats
the exciting part. Were all ready to move
forward and get things going.
The Raiders are in the second year of a
major rebuilding project under general man-
ager Reggie McKenzie and coach Dennis
Allen. Most of the roster has been over-
hauled since they took over following the
2011 season and much of the focus has been
on shedding big contracts and former high
picks who failed to work out in Oakland.
About 40 percent of Oaklands salary cap
will be dedicated to accelerated bonuses for
players no longer on the team, leaving lit-
tle money for stars or depth.

have to sign off on it, but if clean players are so adamant
about signicant changes, these are the type of punish-
ments for which they need to push.
The thing about the current testing is there are no real
teeth in the punishment. Fifty-game suspension for rst
offense? Pssh. That still allows players to return that
same season if caught early enough. Braun getting 65
games? Heck, hell work out for the next eight months
and come back to a $12 million contract next season.
Where is the incentive not to try and push the envelope?
I think the deep, dark, dirty secret that no one in base-
ball will ever admit is that they kind of like PEDs in the
game. It keeps people interested and talking. There is a
lot more discourse about players, about the game on the
eld. And lets face it, people are still awed by the long
ball and pitchers who can blow smoke. They still want
to see it. They still pay to see it.
And when a big-name sh gets caught in the drug-test-
ing net, the sports world is up in arms, but there is no
denying the interest and intrigue that goes along with it.
So lets just accept the fact there are drugs in baseball.
MLB will continue to try and catch the cheaters, fans and
clean players will continue to be indignant and rattle
their swords but will continue to support the game, and
the cheaters will continue to try and stay ahead of the
testing.
Its standard operating procedure in the world of
American sports.

And while on the subject of PEDs, a story came over
the Associated Press wire Wednesday stating Tour de
France ofcials have determined 1998 champion Marco
Pantani and runner-up Jan Ullrich doped. To which the
world replied: duh!

6-0 loss to San Jose PAL.
We got down 4-nothing early and that pretty much was the
end of it, Souza said.
The White Sox offense was hampered by a new PONY rule
that went into effect during the regular season, costing San
Mateo three of its biggest bats. At the beginning of the sea-
son, Palomino teams were allowed as many as six 19-year-old
players on the team. Souza said in the middle of the season, the
PONYadministration amended the rule, cutting the number to
three. After some confusion and clarication, the rule was
adjusted to allow the six 19-year-olds during the regular sea-
son, but then had to cut that to just three for the post season.
We were missing our 4,5,6 (batters) from the regular sea-
son, Souza said.
Souza said some teams cut three 19-year-olds right away,
while other squads kept them on their roster through the entire-
ty of the regular season, including San Mateo.
We had told these (three extra 19-year-olds) they could play.
The bottom line is, we gave some kids 30 games playing with
guys they know instead of playing on a summer team they did-
nt like, Souza said of his decision to keep all six.
Souza said everyone was aware changes were coming for the
post season. While the three left off the roster might have
helped the White Sox offense, Souza remained loyal to the
players who had been in the White Sox program for several
years.
It was a moral decision, Souza said. And not [crap] on
guys who have been with us forever. Everyone knew what they
were getting into.
It just seemed like the right thing to do.
PALOMINO
The U.S. struck rst when Donovan found Eddie Johnson
running through the middle of the Honduran defense.
Johnson took a dribble and powered a shot past goalkeeper
Donis Escober, giving the U.S. a lead 11 minutes into the
game.
In the 27th minute, Johnson started another scoring
sequence with a pass to midfielder Alejandro Bedoya.
Donovan received Bedoyas short chip off his chest in the
middle of the goal box and poked a shot past Escober.
The rst 30 minutes was brilliant football. Brilliant,
high pressure, high tempo, Klinsmann said. We wanted to
move the football around and create chances, and thats
what we did.
Nery Medina of Honduras made it a one-goal game in the
52nd minute, heading in a cross from Marvin Chavez. The
Americans countered a minute later when Bedoya ran down a
long ball from Clarence Goodson and crossed it to
Donovan, who scored from a few yards out.
In the end, the U.S. was able to beat us in every aspect of
the game, Honduras coach Luis Fernando Suarez said.
After the game, it was uncertain whether Klinsmann
would be suspended for the nal after being ejected in the
87th minute for slamming a ball into the ground. ACON-
CACAF ofcial said the referee would le a report with
CONCACAFs disciplinary committee, which will
announce a decision in the next day or two.
Klinsmann said he was reacting to a number of hard fouls
over the games nal 30 minutes.
It was a reaction out of frustration, he said. It was not
meant against the referee, against anybody. It was just frus-
tration. I apologize for that.
GOLD CUP
But Tri-City inched out a 7-5 win in Game 1 of the series
and then ultimately rode that momentum to a Game 2 win.
Millbrae last captured a Joe DiMaggio World Series title
26 years ago.
BELMONT-REDWOOD SHORES FALLS
It turns out, the boys from the Belmont-Redwood Shores
Majors little league team arent invincible after all.
All it took was the No. 1 rated pitcher in all of Northern
California, Javier Felix.
Felix did what seems unreal. He shut down an offense that
had averaged nearly 12 runs a game during a 10-game post-
season winning streak this summer. It was his superb pitch-
ing and a home run that pushed Santa Cruz American
past Belmont-Redwood Shores 2-0.
The shutout was denitely BRS lowest run total of the
summer. Before then, Belmont scored double-digit runs in
seven of its 10 games. Their lowest run total was two
against San Ramon in the Section 3 championship game.
Nick Lopez and Luke Bugbee picked up hits for BRS.
Belmont-Redwood Shores must now venture into the con-
solation bracket. Theyll take on the winner of Thursdays
game between River Park National and West Sacramento on
Friday at 7 p.m.

BARCELONA, Spain Early
arrivals for the world championship
diving are getting an odd treat this
week: The chance to see eagles
skimming over the azure water
where divers will launch themselves
from up to 10 meters.
The birds mission: Patrol the air-
space to keep away pesky seagulls
and pigeons for the safety of the
divers.
I begin early so that everything
is clean and there are no seagulls,
said falconer Oscar Martos, the man
in charge of working the big,
brown-feathered birds.
Like most cities, Barcelona has a
pigeon problem. Because the
Montjuic Municipal pool is on a
hill with a side that falls into the
Mediterranean, seagulls have taken
a particular liking to its convenient
perches and inviting waters.
Martos said organizers of the
world championships contacted the
company he works for to clear the
unwanted visitors.
Every day before and after the div-
ing events, Martos releases one of
his birds to y back and forth from
his gloved st to the light towers on
the other side of the pool, with the
majestic views of the Catalan capi-
tal fanning out below.
Its not just about keeping it
clean, Martos said. Its also about
safety, so the divers dont land on
the birds.
Seagulls are not afraid and can
swoop down to get a drink or take a
bath, he said. If they do that when
a diver is in the air, it could be dan-
gerous.
Martos is using three female
birds, which are bigger and more
aggressive. He has two eagles,
Loba and Duende, and a falcon
called Dorada. Martos said he
selected these from the ock because
they are the calmest around peo-
ple.
He blows a whistle to order them
to turn, and a raised st means to
return to him.
He said he doesnt send them to
kill the gulls and uses birds of prey
as an alternative to poisoning or
capturing birds that are considered a
public nuisance.
Its a non-violent way to keep
them away, he said.

If they do that when a

Rookie linebacker helps
family from burning car
NASHVILLE, Tenn. Titans
linebacker Jonathan Tig Willard
says he helped rescue a family
from a burning vehicle on his way
to Tennessee training camp.
The rookie was driving on
Interstate 40 Tuesday near Oak
Ridge when he noticed a sports
utility vehicle smoking. He rst
told TigerNet.com that he ashed
his lights and honked his horn to
get the driver to pull over when he
saw ames shoot out the back.
As soon as I got to the car, I
saw three small kids in the back
seat and a dog, Willard said
Wednesday at the Titans headquar-
ters. So for me, Im thinking,
Hurry up and get the kids. Hurry
up and get everybody out and get
them away from the car. You could
see probably up under the engine,
all that was still on re. So Im
thinking that the car might go up
anytime.
Willard said he handed an infant
to the woman before pulling out
another child. A second man who
had stopped rescued a third child
and the familys dog, and they
were able to grab the womans
purse and a couple bags before the
SUVexploded into ames a couple
minutes later. He stayed long
enough for reghters to arrive
and put out the re.

ARLINGTON, Texas Roman Torres glancing header
off a corner kick helped Panama beat Mexico 2-1 on
Wednesday night and earn a spot in the CONCACAF Gold
Cup nal.
Torres goal in the 61st minute came off a corner from
teammate Gabriel Torres. With a one-goal cushion, Panama
was able to survive a Mexican attack that produced four
good scoring opportunities over the next 30 minutes.
Panama will play the United States on Sunday in Chicago
for the Gold Cup championship. The teams played in the
2005 Gold Cup nal, won by the U.S. on penalty kicks.
Blas Perez struck rst, giving Panama a 1-0 lead in the
13th minute when he blasted a shot to the near post, beat-
ing goalkeeper Jonathan Orozco.
In the 26th minute, Mexicos Marco Fabian faked a
defender deep in the box and then lofted a cross to the far
side of the goal. Luis Montes diving header sent the ball
into the far upper corner for the tying goal.
After Torres goal, Mexico squandered multiple scoring
opportunities. In the 70th minute, Panama goalkeeper
Jaime Pendo made a diving save on a shot by Jorge
Enriquez. Three minutes later, Montes missed just wide.
Pendo also made a ngertip save on Isaac Brizuelas
shot, pushing the ball on top of the net. In the 89th
minute, Javier Orozcos diving header missed wide by
inches.
Mexico was seeking a fourth straight nal against the
U.S. Mexico had won the last two by a combined score of
9-2.
It was just the second time in 15 matches that Panama
defeated Mexico.
Its frustrating. We fell short of one of our objectives,
Mexico coach Jose Manuel de la Torre said. We wanted to
be in the nal.
Brewers owner committed to keeping Braun
MILWAUKEE Milwaukee Brewers owner Mark
Attanasio is committed to keeping Ryan Braun on the team
and knows the suspended slugger has a lot of work to do to
repair his image.
The Brewers owner made his rst public comments
Wednesday since issuing a statement Monday when Braun
was suspended for the rest of the 2013 season for viola-
tions of Major League Baseballs drug policy.
Attanasio met with Braun in Milwaukee on Wednesday
and then spoke to reporters during the Brewers game
against the San Diego Padres.

Sports brief
STANFORD Agnieszka
Radwanska used to practice outside in
Poland during the winter, dodging
behind buildings to keep the wind
from becoming a problem.
That determination helped make her
one of the toughest competitors on
tour, and she demonstrated that
Wednesday night in a 6-4, 6-3 victory
over Francesca Schiavone in the sec-
ond round of the Bank of the West
Classic.
While I was going to school I prac-
ticed at 7:30 when there was still ice
on the ground, Radwanska said. It
was like this for years with the difcult
conditions. I can certainly appreciate
the good conditions.
Radwanska, the No. 1 seed in the
event and ranked No. 4 in the world,
won for the 10th time in her last 13
matches to improve to 34-10 this
year. She won a career-high 59 match-
es last season.
Its always fun to play Francesca
because she has a good touch and
tricky shots, said Radwanska, who
enjoys utilizing her own selection of
trick shots. The serve was not the key
in this match at all. I think we were
both struggling. I had to nd a differ-
ent way to win.
Radwanska, who simply outlasted
her opponent, continues to train in
Poland so she can have a chance to
lead a normal life for a few days. I
appreciate being home.
Italys Schiavone, ranked 59th,
entered the event on a three-match
skid, but beat former Stanford All-
American Mallory Burdette in her rst
match.
Radwanska beat Schiavone a fourth
straight time to even the series at 4-4.
They were playing for the rst time in
two years.
Earlier, fth-seeded Sorana Cirstea
beat American Coco Vandeweghe 6-3,
6-3 and No. 6 Varvara Lepchenko
advanced with a 6-4, 6-4 victory over
Austrias Tamira Paszek.
The 32nd-ranked Cirstea, Romanias
second-ranked player, reached the
semifinals last year. Shell meet
unseeded Olga Govortsova in the quar-
terfinal. Govortsova upset second-
seeded Samantha Stosur.
Im happy to be back, Cirstea
said. I played well here last year and
have many good memories. Its a good
start to what is to come.
Vandeweghe, who reached the nal
last year, went through qualifying to
gain a spot in the main draw.
Its not easy to play her, Cirstea
said. She serves big and has a big
game. You have to be there every sin-
gle point.
The 40th-ranked Lepchenko reached
her second quarternal of the season.
The American will face Radwanska.
I hope to play better in each
match, Lepchenko said. Im going
to focus on the things I need to do to
play well on the big stages.
Radwanska reaches Stanford quarters
TRUCKEE Qualifying medalist
Jim Liu advanced to the second round
of the match play in the U.S. Junior
Amateur on Wednesday, beating
Matthew Lowe with an 8-foot birdie
putt on the 19th hole.
The 17-year-old, the 2010 champi-
on and 2012 runner-up from
Smithtown, N.Y., needed the extra
hole to finish off the 17-year-old
Lowe, from Farmingdale, N.Y., after
losing the 18th with a bogey.
Thats golf. You cant expect to
play well every day, Liu said. Its
about the days where you dont have
your best game and you just grind it
out. I just tried to stay patient out
there. As long as you have more holes
to play you have a shot. Thats the
mindset I had.
Liu will face John Augenstein of
Owensboro, Ky., in the second round
at Martis Camp Club. Augenstein beat
Matthew Perrine of Austin, Texas, 5
and 4.
Second-seeded Cameron Young of
Scarborough, N.Y., also advanced,
beating fellow 16-year-old Matt
Echelmeier of Columbia, Mo., 3 and
1.

SUBURBAN LIVING 17

TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES
You should have seen my garden
last week. It was much better. I have
heard that phrase uttered countless
times while touring gardens, and I too
have said it more times than I care to
admit.
It always seems that visitors arrive
just after the last petal of some spec-
tacular flower has dropped to the
ground, or after a heavy rain has the
entire garden looking like a steam-
roller drove through it.
The truth of the matter is that other
people notice the areas of our gardens
that we often overlook or take for
granted. For me, its the variety of
trees on my property.
I hardly even notice my trees any-
more. Maybe its because they are
present in the garden all year long,
requiring little if any work.
We inherited many of the trees on our
property when we bought the house,
and many have been here for well over
half a century. Fortunately, the previ-
ous owner was a tree lover and planted
some interesting varieties.
Mature trees in a landscape are a gift
and provide incomparable structure for
a garden.
In addition to being mature speci-
mens, several of our trees are rather
unusual for a residential landscape. Our
house is nestled into a grove of Ilex
opaca, the native American holly.
These magnicent trees, seldom seen
as mature specimens, extend their
branches well above the roof of our
home. My sons second-oor bedroom
window looks directly into one trees
canopy, a haven for all sorts of birds
and a favored nesting spot. In the
spring the trees are covered in small
white flowers that attract so many
insects that a buzz can be heard when
walking past them. In the fall and win-
ter, the female trees are awash in scar-
let berries that provide food to a host
of migratory birds.
In our front yard grows a stately yew
tree seen more often in English
churchyards than in residential land-
scapes. Taxus x media hateldii is fre-
quently planted in American gardens,
but too often it is kept sheared into
rectangular hedges or pyramidal cones.
When allowed to grow naturally,
this beautiful evergreen will grow
upwards of 30 feet tall and equally
wide. I have removed the lower limbs
from mine, exposing the trees beau-
tiful reddish-brown, flaking bark.
Most visitors to the garden ask about
this tree, and are amazed when they
realize they have seen it used often in
foundation plantings.
Towering above both the hollies and
the yew is a mature specimen of
Magnolia kobus. Native to Japan, this
towering magnolia species is the rst
tree to bloom in my garden each
spring. It is covered with lightly fra-
grant white owers sometimes as early
as the rst week in March. Its large,
spreading canopy shelters a sizable
portion of my woodland garden from
the strong rays of the summer sun.
Another magnolia, Magnolia vir-
giniana, is one of my favorite garden
trees. Usually deciduous, this summer
blooming tree has one or two cultivars
that are evergreen. Mine is one of
them. Propagated from a single speci-
men found growing in Milton, Mass.,
Magnolia v. miltonii holds its leaves
all winter long. This graceful tree has
long, thin, ovate, dark green leaves
backed in a whitish green. When a
breeze blows through the tree, its
leaves shimmer, creating a silvery
effect. Its small, creamy owers are
produced on and off all summer and
have a lemony scent.
Unusual trees add something to gar-
dens that other plants cant provide:
structure, and a great deal of visual
interest when other plants are not at
their peak. I suppose I should stop
telling visitors that they have arrived
too late or too early to see some spec-
tacular plant or other in my garden, and
instead let them admire the stunning
arboreal backdrop that has been
decades in the making.
Dont overlook the subtle charms of trees
When owering plants arent blooming in your garden,
interesting trees, such as the holly pictured here, maintain
visual interest.

vated by realignment and conferences called
by U.S. Rep. Jackie Speier, D-San Mateo.
Jauron asked did Speiers training include
the collection of child pornography? To
which Forrest said no. He similarly indicat-
ed then backtracked on statements that San
Mateo County Superior Court Judge
Elizabeth Lee was aware he was developing
a new child exploitation protocol that
included such collection.
Forrest, the probation departments high-
est administrator until his investigation
and subsequent retirement in December
2012, said he ordered movies from distribu-
tor Azov Films because the covers were only
mildly suggestive and advertised them as
naturist lms highlighting youth. Forrest
said he needed to watch the footage to deter-
mine that they denitely are exploitive.
Forrest took the stand in his own defense
against two felony counts of child pornog-
raphy possession yesterday, a week after
the prosecution rested a case that included
several law enforcement ofcials called to
describe common pornography training and
viewing policies. Jauron ended her case by
playing for the jurors only a handful of
more than 400 graphic images and video
recovered from Forrests devices and his
parents San Mateo home.
During his testimony, Forrest described
himself as a hands-on administrator which
is why he delved into the alleged research.
I like to think of myself as a working
chief so I get as involved as I can, Forrest
said.
Forrest was named chief in 2009, oversee-
ing 460 employees, 5,500 adult probation-
ers and 1,800 juvenile offenders. The job
was his pinnacle, he said, and the accusa-
tions would destroy his career and life even
if exonerated. Forrest said that thought
played a role in his suicide attempt at a San
Mateo church during the investigation but it
was just the the capper on a miserable
existence compounded by the stress of
being named probation chief, feeling
under siege as he tried to change the
departments atmosphere and concerns
about his familys health and nances. He
was drinking to sleep and testied that he
twice tried to kill himself before he took a
knife to his throat at the church. Adefense
psychologist, Rahn Minagawa, testified
Forrest actually made ve attempts, includ-
ing stepping into trafc on Interstate 280
and playing Russian roulette.
Minagawa said Forrest has a major depres-
sive disorder and had been molested by a
teacher at age 5 but a full psychological and
psycho-sexual evaluation turned up no
predatory signs.
But while Forrest appeared calm and com-
posed during questioning by his attorney,
his exchange with Jauron over the taped
interview was marked by long pauses and
claims his explanations to investigators
were misunderstood. He said he didnt
remember the images he saw, disputed hav-
ing watched some more than once and
explained that Web searches on words like
boy links and scream were efforts to
better understand sex offenders under his
departments supervision.
The state Attorney Generals Office is
prosecuting the case because of Forrests
involvement with local law enforcement
ofcials. The judge, Robert Atack, is from
Santa Cruz County. Forrest remains free
from custody on $100,000 bail.

FORREST
store should stay open and how much the
city will have to possibly pay in damages if
the court does side with the city. Attorneys
for both 7-Eleven and PDP say they will
lose a combined $8 million if the store is
forced to close after buying the property for
$1 million and upgrading it from an old deli
into a modern market.
Earlier this week, San Mateo Mayor David
Lim sent an email to some of the neighbor-
hood residents who voiced the most opposi-
tion to the 24-hour market opening in the
mostly residential neighborhood that said
attorneys for PDP and 7-Eleven have used
numerous legal tactics to delay proceed-
ings.
Now, Lim wrote, the city will not face its
foes in court until Aug. 29 when a judge will
decide whether the cases should be thrown
out after both sides led demurrers.
PDP and 7-Eleven have also sought to
delay matters by failing to le their legal
briefs in a regular manner, and we expect
they will continue to use delaying tactics,
Lim wrote in the email.
At some point, two judges were assigned
to the multiple lawsuits but the city recent-
ly convinced the court to assign one judge
to hear all the issues, Lim wrote.
After the Aug. 29 hearing, the court will
determine what other hearings will be nec-
essary, Lim wrote.
Since the city led its original lawsuit
seeking to compel 7-Eleven to close, PDP
and 7-Eleven have led three separate law-
suits.
The original hearing date for the citys
request to close 7-Eleven was supposed to
have been heard July 18. However, PDP and
7-Eleven have each led a lawsuit against
the City Council, claiming our decision was
made in error, and asking the court to order
the City Council to reverse their decision.
This proceeding is called a Writ of
Mandate, Lim wrote in the email to
Christine Stiles, Nancy Chiappe and a few
others.
Since the council ruled the market use was
illegal and that building permits were issued
in error, two planners who worked on the
PDP application have quit the city and
Community Development Director Lisa
Grote has announced she will resign her
post this September. Grote has overseen the
citys Planning Division the past three
years.
Lim sticks by the councils decision to
rule the market use illegal.
Happily, the city has a top-notch legal
team that I believe will ultimately prevail. I
believe that the city acted properly within
the law in our decision, and will ultimately
be vindicated by the court, he wrote in the
email.
He also praised the residents who live
near the store for urging the council to chal-
lenge the Planning Divisions decision to
allow the 7-Eleven to open.

graded against other AP students. Youre
also taking them to get college credit.
Murphy took the AP economics, AP
government and politics and AP bi ol ogy
exams and hoped these would help him
graduate from college on time. He fears
not having the scores could cost him
thousands of dollars extra that the AP
credit would have covered. At Emory
University, where Murphy will begin at
the end of August, he plans to double
major in chemistry and economics. His
ultimate goal is to get into medical
school.
The truth is, Murphy was already facing
a bit of an uphill battle this summer after
an IT band injury left him out for the past
cross country season. His current training
involves running about 60-70 miles a
week, plus weightlifting and faster runs,
all in preparation for running at a
Division III level at the Atlanta universi-
t y. His mother Linda said his athletic
training has been that much more impor-
tant since he is coming off being hurt.
Ive been preparing for cross county,
but its been more difficult to do, Murphy
said. So far its been OK, but Ive been
getting up earlier and sleeping later.
Running trails is one of my biggest pas-
sions.
Even with the injury, Murphy won the
Athlete of the Year award at Mills this
year. Murphy said he would be willing to
give up running if he had to make a choice
between graduating on time or running.
So, what does Murphy see himself tak-
ing away from the experience so far?
Its given me a better idea of how to
deal with problems outside of my control
and the power of the media and politi-
cians, Murphy said. I had to take more
of a leadership role than ever before.
Legal action seems to be the next step
in dealing with the invalidations, but
with Murphy and other graduated seniors
leaving for school in the next month, his
mother Linda and other parents wonder
who will take on the lead. For now, those
are unanswered questions.

and liberal Democrats pressing for the
change against the Obama administra-
tion, the Republican establishment and
Congress national security experts.
The showdown vote marked the rst
chance for lawmakers to take a stand on
the secret surveillance program since
former NSA systems analyst Edward
Snowden leaked classied documents
last month that spelled out the monu-
mental scope of the governments
activities.
Backing the NSA program were 134
Republicans and 83 Democrats, includ-
ing House Speaker John Boehner, R-
Ohio, who typically does not vote, and
Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi.
Rejecting the administrations last-
minute pleas to spare the surveillance
operation were 94 Republicans and 111
Democrats.
It is unlikely to be the nal word on
government intrusion to defend the
nation and Americans civil liberties.
Have 12 years gone by and our mem-
ories faded so badly that we forgot what
happened on Sept. 11? Rep. Mike
Rogers, R-Mich., chairman of the
Intelligence Committee, said in plead-
ing with his colleagues to back the pro-
gram during House debate.
Republican Rep. Justin Amash of
Michigan, chief sponsor of the repeal
effort, said his aim was to end the indis-
criminate collection of Americans
phone records.
His measure, offered as an addition to
a $598.3 billion defense spending bill
for 2014, would have canceled the statu-
tory authority for the NSA program,
ending the agencys ability to collect
phone records and metadata under the
USA Patriot Act unless it identied an
individual under investigation.
The House later voted to pass the
overall defense bill, 315-109.
Amash told the House that his effort
was to defend the Constitution and
defend the privacy of every American.
Opponents of this amendment will
use the same tactic that every govern-
ment throughout history has used to
justify its violation of rights: Fear, he
said. Theyll tell you that the govern-
ment must violate the rights of the
American people to protect us against
those who hate our freedom.
The unlikely political coalitions
were on full display during a spirited but
brief House debate.
Let us not deal in false narratives.
Lets deal in facts that will keep
Americans safe, said Rep. Michele
Bachmann, R-Minn., a member of the
Intelligence committee who implored
her colleagues to back a program that
she argued was vital in combatting ter-
rorism.
But Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner, R-Wis. ,
a senior member of the Judiciary
Committee who helped write the Patriot
Act, insisted the time has come to
stop the collection of phone records
that goes far beyond what he envi-
sioned.
Several Republicans acknowledged
the difculty in balancing civil liber-
ties against national security, but
expressed suspicion about the Obama
administrations implementation of the
NSAprograms and anger at Director
of National Intelligence James Clapper.
Right now the balancing is being
done by people we do not know. People
who lied to this body, said Rep. Mick
Mulvaney, R-S.C.
He was referring to Clapper who
admitted he gave misleading statements
to Congress on how much the U.S.
spies on Americans. Clapper apolo-
gized to lawmakers earlier this month
after saying in March that the U.S. does
not gather data on citizens some-
thing that Snowden revealed as false by
releasing documents showing the NSA
collects millions of phone records.
With a urry of letters, statements
and tweets, both sides lobbied furiously
in the hours prior to the vote in the
Republican-controlled House. In a last-
minute statement, Clapper warned
against dismantling a critical intelli-
gence tool.
Since the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks,
Congress has authorized and a
Republican and a Democratic president
have signed extensions of the pow-
ers to search records and conduct roving
wiretaps in pursuit of terrorists.
Two years ago, in a strong bipartisan
statement, the Senate voted 72-23 to
renew the Patriot Act and the House
backed the extension 250-153.
Since the disclosures this year, how-
ever, lawmakers have said they were
shocked by the scope of the two pro-
grams one to collect records of hun-
dreds of millions of calls and the other
allowing the NSA to sweep up Internet
usage data from around the world that
goes through nine major U.S.-based
providers.
NSA
student encrypts chats and emails, say-
ing hes not planning anything sinis-
ter but shouldnt have to sweat snoop-
ers. And in Canada, a lawyer is rethink-
ing the data products he uses to ensure
his clients privacy.
As the attorney, Chris Bushong, put
it: Who wants to feel like theyre
being watched?
News of the U.S. governments
secret surveillance programs that tar-
geted phone records but also informa-
tion transmitted on the Internet has
done more than spark a debate about
privacy. Some are reviewing and
changing their online habits as they
reconsider some basic questions about
todays interconnected world. Among
them: How much should I share and
how should I share it?
Some say they want to take preven-
tative measures in case such programs
are expanded. Others are looking to
send a message not just to the U.S.
government but to the Internet compa-
nies that collect so much personal
information.
We all think that nobodys interest-
ed in us, were all simple folk, said
Doan Moran of Alexandria, La. But
you start looking at the numbers and
the phone records ... it makes you real-
ly hesitate.
Last month, former government
contractor Edward Snowden leaked doc-
uments revealing that the National
Security Agency, as part of its anti-ter-
rorism efforts, had collected the phone
records of millions of Americans. A
second NSA program called PRISM
forces major Internet rms to turn over
the detailed contents of communica-
tions such as emails, video chats, pic-
tures and more.
Morans husband, an ex-Army man,
already was guarded about using social
media. Now she is looking through her
Facebook friends to consider whom
to delete, because she cant know what
someone in her network might do in
the future. Moran said shes uneasy
because she feels unclear about what
the NSA is keeping and how deep the
agencys interests might go.
In Toronto, attorney Bushong let a
free trial of Googles business appli-
cations expire after learning about
PRISM, under which the NSA seized

203 Public Notices
NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Eric C. M. Ely
Case Number: 123537
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: Eric C. M. Ely. A Petition
for Probate has been filed by Diane A.
Ely in the Superior Court of California,
County of San Mateo. The Petition for
Probate requests that Diane A. Ely be
appointed as personal representative to
administer the estate of the decedent.
The petition requests the decedents will
and codicils, if any, be admitted to pro-
bate. The will and any codicils are avail-
able for examination in the file kept by
the court.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ster the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: August 16, 2013 at
9:00 a.m., Dept. 28, Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo, 400
County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063. If you object to the granting of the
petition, you should appear at the 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.
