Public charters and public non-charters
need to communicate better to create better
student outcomes in all public schools in
the county, according to a San Mateo
County Grand Jury report released Monday.
The 2013-14 San Mateo County Civil
Grand Jury report entitled Educational
Frenemies: Can Charter Schools Inspire
Better Student Outcomes in Public
Schools in San Mateo? investigated the
of sharing of best teaching practices
between public charter and public non-
charter schools in the county and how
such sharing is currently hindered.
The grand jurys report showed, through
research and interviews, that charter
schools in the county are generally not
sharing information such as teaching
methodologies designed to promote better
student outcomes with traditional public
schools. No formal avenue exists to foster
sharing and the failure of charter schools to
fulll the legislative intent of the laws
authorizing their existence may be moot,
because in this county the organizational
freedoms allowed by charter status do not
seem to be a signicant determinative fac-

Belmont hills
to be named
high fire risk
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
With scorching summer weather
and re season here, Belmont is
considering the designation of a
large portion of its hills as very
high risk to ensure those who live
or own land in the area are working
to prevent forest res.
The Belmont Fire Department is
proposing an ordinance to estab-
lish the sprawling San Juan
Canyon and portions of the
Western Hills as wildland-urban
interface, or WUI. The designation
applies to areas where buildings
are in close proximity to heavily
vegetated open space, often on a
steep terrain, and could be chal-
lenging for reghters to manage
during a wildfire,
according to a
staff report.
Approximately
27 acres of the San
Juan Canyon will
be the citys obli-
gation after the
council purchased
the land in 2009 with the intent of
designating it as open space.
The department wants to desig-
nate hillside residential zones
between Hillcrest Drive and
Marsten Avenue, and Ralston
Avenue and Bishop Road as a very
high re hazard severity zones,
said Belmont Building Official
Mark Nol.

Ohio womans 100th
birthday wish: doing yard work
BOWLING GREEN, Ohio An Ohio
woman who lives at a retirement home
and turned 100 on Monday had just one
wish for her birthday: She wanted to do
some yard work and smell fresh-cut
grass.

University. She pushed one of the uni-
versitys mowers and then helped
plant owers near the student union on
campus.
She also sat atop one of the crews
riding lawnmowers.

Police: 2-year-old dies
after statue falls on him
SAN FRANCISCO A 2-year-old
Utah boy was killed when a 6-foot-tall
dolphin statue fell on him in the
Fishermans Wharf area of San
Francisco, police said Monday.
The toddler was apparently playing
on Friday when he climbed up and
wrapped his arms and legs around the
heavy statue outside Majestic
Collection Art Gallery, bringing it
down, police spokesman Officer
Gordon Shyy said.
The boy was initially treated for a
nose bleed by emergency crews. He
was taken to San Francisco General
Hospital, where he died from internal
injuries a few hours later.
The medical examiner identied the
boy as Kayson Shelton of Draper,
Utah, about 20 miles south of Salt
Lake City.
Its an unfortunate and tragic inci-
dent, Shyy said.
The boy was visiting San Francisco
with vacationing family members who
were staying at a nearby hotel.
The store violated a city code and
was cited for placing an object or mer-
chandise on a sidewalk where it
impedes pedestrian trafc, Shyy said.
Calls to the store on Monday were
not immediately returned. The family
has returned to Utah. A call to their
home was not immediately returned.

injured.
A California Highway Patrol ofcer
tells the Orange County Register that

to turn her upright so she didnt land
on her head. Its unclear how fast the
bus was moving.
The girl managed to get out of lanes
and onto the highways center divider.
She was treated for cuts and bruises

Moving a fire department ladder truck
from Foster City to San Mateo may decrease
its response time in Foster City, but doing
so will enable its costs to be shared between
the two cities and Belmont.
The three cities share re department man-
agement staff, which includes the re chief,
deputy chiefs and battalion chiefs. After
conducting a pilot study on how to best uti-
lize its resources, fire officials are now
approaching the three cities councils with
an opportunity to share in the approximate
$2.25 million it costs to operate a truck
each year, Belmont City Manager Greg
Scoles said.
During the four-month study, Foster
Citys Truck 28 moved from East Hillsdale
Boulevard to San Mateos Station 23 on
27th Avenue, according to a Belmont Fire
Protection District report.
The study concluded that although it took
the truck an additional two minutes and 17
seconds to respond to calls in Foster City,
the average response time throughout the
jurisdiction decreased, according to the
report.
By moving the truck to the San Mateo
location, it balances those response times
out to all three agencies and actually puts all
three agencies in alignment with response
times based on industry standards, said San
Mateo Fire Chief Mike Keefe, who oversees
operations for all three cities.
Also, re trucks typically dont respond
to calls alone and are often preceded by
another unit, according to the report. Each
vehicle has a distinct purpose, engines
respond with water, hoses and pumps; while
fire trucks carry the massive ladder and
heavy machinery like ventilation equip-
ment and the Jaws of Life.
About four years ago, San Mateo and
Foster City began to partner and Belmont
joined in January 2013, said Deputy Fire
Chief Michael Gaffney.
San Mateo County also pools resources
by running on a joint powers agreement in
which fire units respond based on their
proximity to a call, regardless if its outside
of the departments city boundaries.
There are only seven re ladder trucks in
all of San Mateo County. One is currently at
Station 28 in Foster City and the other at
Station 21 in San Mateo, Gaffney said.
Because there are three cities with just two
trucks, re ofcials conducted a pilot study
to determine where Truck 28 should be
placed to best serve the jurisdiction as a
whole, Gaffney said.
There was a need to look at having ef-
cient truck services throughout the entire
area between the three cities. So we looked
at where would be a good placement. We had
an idea where it was, but we didnt have any
statistics, so thats why we did the pilot
study, Gaffney said.
Foster Citys Truck 28 is currently
manned by just three people, Keefe said.
However, as another benet under the pro-
posed agreement, a fourth person would be
assigned to the truck and most of the time it
would be a paramedic, Keefe said. Because
tasks are always assigned to teams of at
least two, the trucks relocation and
increased stafng would allow it to do more
during an incident, Keefe said.
Yes, its going to have a little longer
response time, but when it gets here its
going to have an increased delivery of serv-
ice by having a fourth person, Keefe said.
Providing a four person [advanced life sup-
port] truck service to each of the agencies,
essentially for Foster City theres cost sav-
ings involved in that, for Belmont and San
Mateo theyre both going to contribute to
that service because its going to provide
them with a better level of service.
Because trucks are so costly to manage,
this new agreement would involve Belmont
paying for about one third of the necessary
staffing, Foster City would pay for two
thirds and San Mateo would contribute to
Belmonts portion of the cost and be
responsible for housing the truck.
When you have the opportunity to staff
that with multiple agencies and share in
some of those costs, its signicantly less
than if each individual agency had to do it
on their own, Keefe said. Part of the bene-
t of having a shared service agreement is
were able to share equipment in a way thats
scally responsible.
The Foster City Council approved the
proposal at a meeting last week and Mayor
Charlie Bronitsky said truck teams provide
support to engine teams that arrive rst and
that adding a member to the truck team, a
paramedic, provides additional life safety to
all three cities.
This continued collaboration effort will
provide enhanced safety services to all three
cities and will also do so at reduced cost to
the taxpayer, Bronitsky said.
The Belmont City Council will review the
Belmont Fire Districts proposal during a
6:30 p.m. meeting Tuesday, June 10 at City
Hall, One Twin Pines Lane, Belmont. The
San Mateo City Council will review the pro-
posal at a meeting Monday, June 16.

A 64-year-old man convicted of fatally stab-
bing his girlfriend 31 years ago because he
wrongly thought she was cheating on him was
granted parole on his sixth try.
A two-person Board of Parole Hearings
panel found James Harold Ward suitable for
release because he has not had a serious rule
violation since 1989, has programmed well
while incarcerated and has appropriate
parole plans like a place to stay and job leads,
according to the District Attorneys Ofce.
District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe, who
prosecuted Ward in 1983, said his ofce
opposed release because we thought he was-
nt ready.
The panels decision is next reviewed by a
parole board and then by the governors ofce
which can veto the release.
James Harold Ward is serving 26 years to
life for the Oct. 20, 1982, death of his girl-
friend. He pleaded no contest to rst-degree
murder and using a knife just after opening
statements were made in his 1983 trial.
Ward stabbed his girlfriend in her apartment
near Woodside Road because he thought she
was unfaithful, Wagstaffe said.
That was absolutely untrue. She was a
good person, he said.
Ward had been previously convicted of
assault with a deadly weapon for attacking a
prior girlfriend with a knife.
While the parole board gave Ward a chance
at freedom, it did not feel similarly about Jose
Timoteo Guevara who also came before them
at Solano State Prison. Guevara, 41, is serving
15 years to life for a pair of rapes on two dif-
ferent days in 1995.
Hes a real dangerous guy, Wagstaffe said.
Guevara, who was the rst San Mateo
County defendant convicted and sentenced
under the states one strike law for certain sex-
ual assault convictions, was found unsuitable
and denied parole for another ve years.
A jury convicted Guevara in October 1995
of two counts of forcible rape, false imprison-
ment and making felony threats. A multiple
victim allegation found true is what sent him
to prison for life.
Wagstaffe said there was the belief Guevara
committed more rapes but it was never
proven.

Girlfriend killer gets parole
Fire investigators are looking into what
caused a one-alarm re Saturday at a scrap
metal yard in Hayward that sent thick smoke
into the air and prompted nearby residents to
take shelter inside their homes.
The re was reported around 1:40 p.m.
Saturday at the Sims Metal Management
scrap metal yard at 30104 Industrial Parkway,
according to Hayward fire Capt. Don
Nichelson.
The blaze started in a pile of discarded
metal appliances that included washers and
dryers, refrigerators and a barbecue grill,
Nichelson said.
Crews had the re under control in about 20
minutes, he said.
The blaze sent a thick plume of smoke bil-
lowing into the air and prompted a shelter-in-
place advisory for residents in the surrounding
area.
No structures were damaged and no injuries
were reported.
Nichelson said re investigators still arent
sure what caused the re but said a review of
footage from the facilitys security cameras
didnt reveal any signs of foul play.
Jill Rodby, a spokeswoman for Sims Metal
Managements Hayward receiving yard, said
the re happened when the facility was closed
and no workers were around.
She said the company is conducting its own
investigation into the cause of the re and will
look at what needs to be done going forward
to prevent future res at the scrap yard.
Sims Metal Management came under
scrutiny after two res broke out in two
months at its Redwood City metal recycling
plant last year. The company agreed to imple-
ment new re prevention policies following
the blazes.
One of those res was determined to be
arson, according to Redwood City re and
police ofcials.
A 2009 re at Simss Hayward scrap yard
was also deemed suspicious, Rodby said.
In addition to the Redwood City and
Hayward facilities, the company also operates
a scrap metal recycling yard in Richmond.

Complaint: Trucker in
Morgan crash hadnt slept
NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J. A truck driv-

hadnt slept for more than
24 hours before the acci-

Monday as Morgan recov-

Wal-Mart trucker Kevin
Roper is expected to
appear in state court
Wednesday. It was unclear
if Roper, of Jonesboro, Georgia, had retained
an attorney. He remained free after posting
$50,000 bond.
Authorities said Roper apparently failed to
slow for traffic ahead early Saturday in
Cranbury Township and then swerved to avoid
a crash. Instead, they said, his big rig smashed
into the back of Morgans chauffeured limo
bus, killing comedian James Jimmy Mack
McNair and injuring Morgan and three other
people.
The accident occurred in a chronically con-
gested area of the New Jersey Turnpike where
a ve-year widening project is expected to n-
ish this year. A turnpike authority spokesman
said two of three northbound lanes had been
closed about a mile ahead of the accident for
road work, which likely slowed trafc.

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

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

Pistol shooting
neighbor detains drunk driver
A drunk driver was arrested for a hit-and-
run accident after two Belmont neighbors
red a gun while chasing
the criminal and detained
him until police arrived
Saturday night.
Spencer Nymann, a 25-
year-old Belmont resi-
dent, was drunk when he
hit a woman and her 5-
year-old daughter who
were driving at the inter-
section of Hiller Street
and Wessex Way around 8
p.m. June 7, according to
Belmont police.
Awitness followed Nymann as he ed the
scene in his truck through the Sterling
Downs neighborhood before abandoning
his car in the parking lot of a church,
according to police.
Nymann was allegedly running through
nearby backyards when two neighbors
detained him outside a home on Oxford Way.
One of the neighbors was armed with a pistol
and apparently discharged it into the ground
while chasing Nyman, according to police.
Nymann wasnt injured and was taken to jail
without incident and is charged with hit-and-
run causing injury and DUI, according to
police. The victims complained of pain but
were checked out and released at the scene,

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Up to 5 million
Americans struggling to make their
monthly student loan payments could find
relief under a program President Barack
Obama expanded Monday, part of an elec-
tion-year push by Democrats to paint
Republicans as blocking common-sense
steps that could help the middle class.
Dubbing it a no-brainer, Obama also
threw his support
behind legislation to let
some of those same bor-
rowers refinance their
student loans at lower
rates, in a move the
administration said
could save 25 million
borrowers up to $2,000
over the life of their
loans.
Im only here because this country
gave me a chance through education,
Obama said. We are here today because we
believe that in America, no hard-working
young person should be priced out of a
higher education.
With a group of student loan borrowers
looking on, Obama put his pen to a presi-
dential memorandum that will allow those
who borrowed through the federal govern-
ment before 2007 to pay no more than 10
percent of their income in monthly pay-
ments. Existing programs created by
Congress and Obama already offer that
benefit to recent borrowers; Obamas
memo will make it fully retroactive.
How much borrowers could save under
Obamas expansion depends on an array of
factors, including income and the size of
the loan. But under one possible scenario,
an unmarried individual who borrowed
$100,000 to pay for college and makes
$30,000 a year could see the monthly pay-
ment drop from more than $1,000 a month
to just a few hundred dollars.
Prodding Congress, Obama acts to ease student debt

SACRAMENTO As budget talks enter
the nal week, Democratic state lawmakers
have been pushing Gov. Jerry Brown to
accept higher revenue projections so more
money can go toward restoring social serv-
ices.
Akey disagreement has emerged over the
size of the 2014-15
spending plan for the s-
cal year that begins July
1. Lawmakers face a June
15 deadline set by the
state constitution to
pass a balanced budget.
Browns administra-
tion is using a more con-
servative revenue esti-
mate for a $107.8 billion general fund and
warns against paying for new programs
with temporary increases in tax revenue.
Lawmakers want to use gures from the
Legislative Analysts Office, which pre-
dicts the state will collect $2.5 billion
more.
H.D. Palmer, a spokesman for the state
Department of Finance, said the adminis-
tration believes those revenues are ques-
tionable, given what we are seeing in the
economy and remain a concern in budget
negotiations.
State leaders are dealing with surplus rev-
enues for the upcoming budget after years
of multibillion-dollar budget cuts to social
welfare and other state programs. Both
sides have agreed to a rainy day fund and
paying down liabilities for teachers pen-
sions.

Backers of a measure authorizing the
Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District
to issue million of dollars in bonds claimed
victory Monday after latest counts passed
the two-thirds voting threshold required.
As of Monday, 70,676 people, or 67.77
percent, cast ballots for Measure AAout of a
total 104,245 votes in the three counties,
with much of the narrow margin of victory
coming from Santa Clara County, according
to counties election websites.
In Santa Clara County, 49,687, or 68.73
percent, of the 72,298 people who voted
either at the polls or by mail backed
Measure AA, while San Mateo County fell
short of the two-thirds minimum with
20,998 or 65.7 percent, voting yes.
Peninsula residents have just made an
incredible investment in the future, preserv-
ing the beautiful open spaces that make this
region so special, said Walter Moore, pres-
ident of the Peninsula Open Space Trust, in
a prepared statement.
POST sponsored Measure AA with the
Sempervirens Fund.
Passage means Midpen can issue bonds of
up to $300 million for 200 new miles of
trails and restoration of open spaces,
forests, watersheds and farmlands through-
out its 550-square-foot district between Los
Gatos, East Palo Alto and north of Half
Moon Bay.
The funds will go to 25 specic projects
chosen in a public process and an independ-
ent oversight committee will keep an eye
on spending.
Measure AA supporters credit community
support and volunteers for overcoming the
two-thirds majority requirement for pas-
sage.
Now its our turn, were hitting the
ground running, and we look forward to the
day in the near future when we come togeth-
er again to celebrate the completion of the
first Measure AA-funded project, said
Midpen General Manager Steve Abbors.

An 8-year-old German shepherd died
Monday morning after being left in a truck
parked at a Belmont motel on the 1100

At approximately 10:30 a.m., Belmont
police responded to a call of a dog in dis-

found an unresponsive the dog named

with the windows rolled
up and without water,
San Mateo County

the scene. In spite of their
efforts, Elisha died en route to an veterinary
emergency clinic, according to police.
Elishas owner, Joseph Regis Jr., a 50-
year-old transient, was contacted in a motel
room by ofcers. Regis, who was asleep
when contacted, told ofcers he had checked
on Elisha at 3 a.m. and the dog seemed ne.

Jerad and Amanda Miller had been

very radical, according to the son of
rancher Cliven Bundy.
Assistant Sheriff Kevin McMahill said the
Millers had ideology shared by militia and
white supremacists, including the belief
that law enforcement was the oppressor.
Police believe the shootings were an iso-
lated act, not part of a broader conspiracy to
target law enforcement, McMahill said.

Issues with Millbrae budget
Editor,
I believe the residents of Millbrae
have been played a wag the dog by
Tai Wu and are forgetting other impor-
tant issues in our town.
On May 31, the Millbrae City
Council discussed the preliminary
budget for scal year 2013-14.
Information is readily available on the
city of Millbrae website. Highlights
include the General Fund balance drop-
ping $5.5 million and other funds drop-
ping $7.5 million. In other words, the
city will have expenditures of $13 mil-
lion greater than the revenue we take
in.
The budget also shows a drop in sales
tax revenue for the city. How can this
be possible with a thriving business
such as Tai Wu bringing in the trafc
and parking problems, but allegedly
lling the City Hall coffers as certain
individuals would have you believe.
The reality for the city of Millbrae is
grim despite ballooning costs every
year the city has employed the services
of Steven Tolbert who was earning
according to 2012 information a salary
of $173,469.45 in Foster City as assis-
tant city manager. How much is the city
of Millbrae paying for his additional
services, among other questionable
expenses detailed in the preliminary
budget?
The city of Millbrae has a crippling
spending problem stemming back for
years as Ive noted many times pub-
licly.
Your city government views the resi-
dents of Millbrae taxpayer as nothing
more than walking ATMs without as
much as a care about your quality of life
or opinion.

Bergdahl swap
should not cause panic
Editor,
Prisoner swap? Nothing new there.
Since before the ancient Greeks, pris-
oners and hostages have been traded for
a perceived mutual benet.
So what if he walked away from his
unit? He apparently wasnt given royal
treatment by his captors. Also, we look
at the folks we traded. None were tried
and convicted of anything. Were they
nice guys? Probably not, but as they
are Taliban not Al-Qaida, then they are
not afliates of the 9/11 attacks. Do we
remember why we invaded
Afghanistan? To get the guys responsi-
ble. The Taliban were just running the
country where they were hiding out.
Anyone remember?
Another ash, these guys have their
prints on le, their DNA, their facial
recognition, etc. If they showed up in a
battle zone I would imagine a drone
would be taking an interest. Lets not
let Fox News stampede us with their
usual panic.

A call to rental
property owners in Burlingame
Editor,
In response to the June 4 letter A
call to renters in Burlingame from
apparent socialist Cynthia Cornell: If
you are unhappy in Burlingame, then
move out.
Just because you want to live in
Burlingame, doesnt mean you are enti-
tled to live in Burlingame. Perhaps I
want to live in Hillsborough. Should I
demand that they build affordable and
senior housing? I think not.
I suggest that every time voters vote
in a new property tax increase, rental
property owners raise rents twice that
amount. If the taxes owners pay go up
$200 a year, then raise the rent an addi-
tional $400 a year. Make sure your ten-
ants know in advance that that will
happen.
Rental properties are an investment
and should not be restricted by the vot-
ers. Property owners make signicant
sacrices to ensure that they dont
become low-income seniors in the
future. Low-income seniors should have
put away money during their working
years and be using Social Security as a
supplement, as it was intended.
I do not want to see anymore low
income or subsidized housing any-
where in San Mateo County. If I wanted
to live in a socialist city, I would move
up north.

Coming back to reality
Editor,
Joseph Locasto says in his letter
dated June 4 that liberals use their
mouths instead of their brains. I think
that is an apt description of himself. He
makes a vague reference to my previous
letter entitled Here we go Again,
about guns. Then he says in a vial man-
ner Its not the method stupid its the
crime, He has a habit of attacking not
the things I say, but rather the person I
am. He compares terrorist attacks to
criminal behavior. So, Mr. Locasto if it
is the crime, and not the method then
how can someone commit the crime in
the rst place without any effective
method? In terms of coming back to
reality, I wish that you could come back
to the reality that most other of us in
society are experiencing.

San Carlos North Crestview
land swap with school district
Editor,
The city of San Carlos is consider-
ing a land swap of its North Crestview
site with the San Carlos Elementary
School District. The district would
build a school on that site. Thats a
terrible idea.
The best use of the North Crestview
site, now owned by the city of San
Carlos and designated as park land, is
to retain that designation but provide
an easement for Interstate 280 access.
That access should not be considered
without the simultaneous removal of
the CrestviewHallcrest barrier.
Access should accommodate both
northbound and southbound trafc. An
existing underpass for Sheep Camp
Trail could be utilized to enable south-
bound access.
Cooperation with the San Francisco
Water Department in providing ease-
ments through their watershed is
essential. Such cooperation should be
readily attainable when one considers
the 1969 Grant of Scenic and
Recreation Easement made by the
SFWD. They offered the grant for and
in consideration of ... the substantial
additional cost incurred by Grantee and
the state of California incident to said
relocation of Interstate 280 to the
Ridge Route, which added half a mile
to the commute.
The city of San Carlos has legal
standing to pursue enforcement of that
grant. They should put the SFWDs
feet to the re. It would not take
much of a study to show that the bene-
ts from such use of that land would be
enormous.

Vichy regime,
guess where else it is?
Editor,
Edward Suman (Daily Journal letters
June 7) wonders if the Vichy French
Regime (which collaborated with the
Nazis in World War II) is still alive and
well in France today in light of their
recent sale of aircraft carriers to
Russia. He may well be right on the
mark. But perhaps the Vichy Regime
is alive and well in America too. We
have just liberated ve of the most
vicious, dangerous Islamist terrorists
on the planet, and we are in the
process of giving our ofcial blessing
to the terror conglomerate of Hamas.
Yes the Vichy Regime may be alive
and well in America too. We call it
Team Obama.

Letters to the editor
The things that
make you go ugh
T
wenty years ago this week, O.J. Simpson
stopped being that former football guy running
through airports in the Hertz commercial and
began his transformation into the man who got away
with murder.
Twenty years! Twenty years since the media circus that
has become de rigueur in high-profile crimes. Twenty
years since the bloody glove, the if-it-doesnt-fit-you-
must-acquit. Twenty years since the Time
Photoshopping brouhaha. Twenty years since Judge
Lance Ito and his collection of clocks. Twenty years
since the name Kardashian meant a member of the Dream
Team and not the first family of reality entertainment.
The murder was all
over the newspapers
no viral Internet
and Twitter sharing
way back in those
dark ages. That slow-
speed chase in the
white Bronco hap-
pened the night
before the summer
break my freshman
year of college. The
trial was perpetually
blaring in the dorms
common TV room.
The verdict was read
while I sat in a
Women and Law sem-
inar, wondering what
the hell was wrong with my fellow female students who
were cheering the acquittal.
Man, Im getting old.
Last week marked the 30-year anniversary of the game
Tetris. I remember that clearly, too. I recall sitting in
front of the television, video game controller in hand,
listening to that irritating music grow faster and faster
as the small shapes refused to fit together and the stack
piled up toward failure.
This of course brings back the memory of those
months my brother and I drank Capri-Sun every day in
our school lunches so we could collect the specially
marked packages and earn money at KB Toys to buy the
Nintendo system on which the aforementioned Tetris
was played. I think the Maui punch flavor earned the
most and I never want to drink anything similar ever
again.
I must be even older than I thought.
Commemorations are an important way to ensure that
certain milestones never go forgotten. The assassina-
tion of President John F. Kennedy. Neil Armstrongs
walk on the moon. The Sept. 11 attacks. The birth of
the Twinkie. So maybe that last one isnt as momentous
but chances are pop culture dates capture the attention
just as much if not arguably more than the Big Moments
in history.
Or maybe its just that a lot of those ascribed Big
Moments dont have the same suckerpunch effect as
realizing so much time has passed since a key childhood
experience or a daily used object like the microwave or
cellphone came into being. And Google? Who remem-
bers life before Google?
Former President Ronald Reagans 2004 death just hit
its 10-year anniversary. Frankly, I didnt even read any
of the coverage. But when the movies WarGames and
Ferris Buellers Day Off reached the multi-decade mark
I certainly paid some attention. The Rubiks Cube turned
40. Those movies were from my younger days. Those
movies are now getting older. Hence, I felt a little
longer in the tooth, too.
Every year, Beloit College issues its Mindset List
which tries illustrating the world view of incoming col-
lege freshmen by describing their world. For the Class
of 2017 otherwise known as kids born in 1995
this means tidbits like they could always get rid of
their outdated toys on eBay or with GPS all they ever
need is an address rather than actual directions. Atablet?
Not just a pill anymore.
Historical anniversaries are kind of like that list a
reminder not only of what has happened but that some
of us have been around long enough to actually remem-
ber them.
And who knows what will actually be recalled in
another 20 years. Maybe O.J. will have finally tracked

Big movers

NEW YORK Call it the ho-hum
market. Another day, another record
high.
News of a handful of corporate deals
sent some stocks jumping Monday.
And Family Dollar climbed following
news that investor Carl Icahn has taken
a stake in the company.
With no major economic reports to
drive the market, U.S. indexes made
slight gains in the morning then
slouched back toward the breakeven
mark in the afternoon. The Standard &
Poors 500 index still managed to
close at another all-time high, rising
1.83 points, or less than 0.1 percent,
to 1,951.27.
The Dow Jones industrial average
edged up 18.82 points, or 0.1 percent,
to 16,943.10, while the Nasdaq com-
posite index gained 14.84 points, or
0.3 percent, to 4,336.24.
The S&P 500 has been on a steady
climb for three weeks, lifting the
benchmark for most investment funds
by 4 percent the last month.
Judging by some measures, that sud-
den success makes it look like the S&P
500 has moved too far, too fast, said
Joe Bell, senior equity analyst at
Schaeffers Investment Research.
But there are still plenty of traders
making bets against the market.
People have also taken billions out of
mutual funds that invest in U.S. stocks
week after week, according to the
Investment Company Institute.
We dont think theres an over-
whelming amount of optimism right
now, Bell said.
In corporate deal news, Hillshire
Brands rose $3.14, or 5 percent, to
$62.06 after Tyson Foods emerged as
the winner in a bidding war for meat
processor.
Merck announced a deal to buy Idenix
Pharmaceuticals for $3.85 billion, an
acquisition that would give the pharma-
ceutical giant Idenixs array of treat-
ments for hepatitis C. Idenix soared
$16.56, or 229 percent, to $23.79.
Apples stock rose $1.48 cents, or
nearly 2 percent, to $93.77. Thats
after closing at $645.57 on Friday. The
difference reects Apples 7-for-1 stock
split, which gave every Apple stock-
holder six additional shares for every
share they owned
In a disclosure led to regulators late
Friday, Carl Icahn said he and his afl i-
ates have picked up a 9 percent stake in
Family Dollar, a discount store, and
plan to look for changes to boost the
companys value. Family Dollars
stock jumped $8.09, or 13 percent, to
$68.62.
Some investment analysts have
been warning that the market is past
due for a 10 percent drop, known as a
correction, because there hasnt
been one since August 2011 nearly
three years. Since World War II, correc-
tions typically hit every 18 months
on average, according to S&P Capital
IQ.
Jim Paulsen, the chief investment
strategist at Wells Capital
Management, said he wouldnt rule one
out this year. But such a downturn
requires the right environment, one in
which investors get too greedy for
their own good. Right now, he said,
theres too much caution.
Its going to take some time before
people get so greedy that theyre going
to do stupid stuff and blow us up,
Paulsen said.
In the market for U.S. government
bonds, the yield on the 10-year
Treasury edged up to 2.60 percent from
2.59 percent late Friday. Yields rise
when bond prices fall. The price of oil
rose $1.75 to $104.41 a barrel.

greedy that theyre going to do stupid stuff and blow us up.

DEARBORN, Mich. Roofs made of car-
bon fiber. Plastic windshields. Bumpers
fashioned out of aluminum foam.
What sounds like a science experiment
could be your next car.
While hybrids and electrics may grab the
headlines, the real frontier in fuel economy
is the switch to lighter materials.
Automakers have been experimenting for
decades with lightweighting, as the practice
is known, but the effort is gaining urgency
with the adoption of tougher gas mileage
standards. To meet the governments goal of
nearly doubling average fuel economy to 45
mpg by 2025, cars need to lose some serious
pounds.
Lighter doesnt mean less safe. Cars with
new materials are already acing government
crash tests. Around 30 percent of new vehi-
cles already have hoods made of aluminum,
which can absorb the same amount of impact
as steel. Some car companies are teaming up
with airplane makers, which have years of
crash simulation data for lightweight materi-
als.
Ford gave a glimpse of the future last week
with a lightweight Fusion car. The proto-
type, developed with the U.S. Department of
Energy, is about 800 pounds lighter than a
typical Fusion thanks to dozens of changes
in parts and materials.
The instrument panel consists of a carbon
ber and nylon composite instead of steel.
The rear window is made from the same tough
but thin plastic that covers your cellphone.
The car has aluminum brake rotors that are
39 percent lighter than cast iron ones and
carbon ber wheels that weigh 42 percent
less than aluminum ones.
Because its lighter, the prototype can use
the same small engine as Fords subcompact
Fiesta, which gets an estimated 45 mpg on
the highway.
The car wont be in dealerships anytime
soon. For one thing, its prohibitively
expensive. Its seats, for example, cost up to
$73 apiece because they have carbon ber
frames. The same seats with steel frames are
$12.
Still, prototypes are helping Ford and
other companies gure out the ideal mix of
materials.
These are the technologies that will creep
into vehicles in the next three to ve years,
said Matt Zaluzec, Fords technical leader for
materials and manufacturing research.
Some vehicles have already made a light-
weight leap. Land Rovers 2013 Range
Rover, which went on sale last year,
dropped around 700 pounds with its all-alu-
minum body, while the new Acura MDX
shed 275 pounds thanks to increased use of
high-strength steel, aluminum and magne-
sium.
Ford has unveiled an aluminum-body 2015
F-150 pickup, which shaves up to 700
pounds off the current version. The truck
goes on sale later this year.
The average vehicle has gained more than
800 pounds over the last 12 years and now
tops out at just over 3,900 pounds, accord-
ing to government data. Not only have cars
gotten bigger, but safety features like air
bags and more crash-resistant frames have
also added weight. General Motors
Chevrolet Volt electric car has to drag around
a 400-pound battery.
Auto industry gets serious about lighter materials
By Candice Choi and Mae Anderson
NEWYORK Tyson Foods Inc. has won
a bidding war to gobble up Hillshire
Brands, the maker of Jimmy Dean sausages
and Ball Park hot dogs.
Tyson had been vying with rival poultry
producer Pilgrims Pride to acquire
Hillshire, which wrapped up its bidding
process Sunday. Tysons nal offer ended up
at $63 per share, about two weeks after
Pilgrims Pride made an initial bid of $45
per share.
Pilgrims Pride, which is owned by
Brazilian meat giant JBS, said Monday that
it was bowing out of the competition.
Still, the deal is not sealed yet. It is con-
tingent on Hillshire not going through
with its offer to acquire Pinnacle Foods
Inc., which makes Birds Eye frozen vegeta-
bles and Wish-Bone salad dressings.
Pinnacle could allow Hillshire to do its deal
with Tyson, leaving Pinnacle with a $163
million breakup fee. Or it could force
Hillshire shareholders to vote on whether
theyd prefer a merger with Pinnacle.
A Pinnacle representative didnt return a
call for comment.
In a conference call with reporters, Tyson
CEO Donnie Smith said he was condent
the $63 offer would end up being worth-
while for Tyson shareholders, despite how
high the price went.
Great brands like Jimmy Dean and Ball
Park just dont become available very
often, Smith said.
Hillshires stock closed at $36.95 on
May 9, the day before the company
announced the Pinnacle deal. On Monday it
closed up 5.3 percent at $62.06.
Tyson, like Pilgrims Pride, has been
looking to boost its presence in brand-
name, prepared foods like Jimmy Dean
breakfast sandwiches. Those types of prod-
ucts are more protable than fresh meat,
such as chicken breasts, where there isnt as
much wiggle room to pad prices.
While Tyson and Pilgrims Pride already
sell some brand-name products, their busi-
nesses have been more focused on supply-
ing supermarkets and restaurant chains.
In particular, Tyson said it was drawn by
Hillshires stable of breakfast foods, which
would better position it in the fast-growing
category.

Donaldsons 3 errors costly as As lose ground in West
By Joe Resnick
ANAHEIM Mike Trout drove in a run
with a double that originally was ruled a
homer, Garrett Richards pitched seven
strong innings and the Los Angeles Angels
beat the Oakland Athletics 4-1 Monday
night in the opener of a series between the
top two teams in the AL West.
The Angels fourth straight victory
reduced Oaklands lead 3 1/2 games, but it
did not come without some controversy.
Los Angeles manager Mike Scioscia was
ejected by rst base umpire Bob Davidson
in the fth inning for arguing after a call
was overturned on replay.
Oakland manager Bob Melvin challenged
Trouts towering drive to right eld, believ-
ing the ball was touched by a fan at the top
of the 18-foot wall. Originally ruled a two-
run homer, Trout was awarded an RBI double.
Hank Conger had bunted for a hit and con-
tinued to second on the rst of three throw-
ing errors by third baseman Josh Donaldson
two of which led to unearned runs
ahead of Trouts hit.
Richards (6-2) allowed a run and four hits,
struck out four and walked none. The right-
hander, who pitched four-hit ball through
eight innings last Wednesday in a 4-0 win at
Houston, gave up just two harmless singles
over his nal 5 1-3 innings against an
offense that came in leading the majors in
runs and on-base percentage.
Joe Smith pitched a perfect eighth inning
and Ernesto Frieri struck out the side in the
ninth for his 11th save.
Jesse Chavez (5-4) allowed three runs
two earned and eight hits in six innings
and struck out ve. It was the ninth time in
the right-handers 13 starts this season that
he yielded fewer than three earned runs, but
his record in those games is only 4-2.

Chicago White Sox, were out to avenge a

Life has been full of surprises for Vince
Arobio since he wrapped up his baseball
career at Burlingame in 2013.
After earning second-team All-Peninsula
Athletic League Bay Division honors as a
senior shortstop last year, Arobio seemed
destined to play at the College of San
Mateo. But that all changed after a victory
at Capuchino on May 8, 2013.
In the wake of the game in which he
went 1 for 3 at the plate,
but also fired 1 2/3
shutout innings to earn
the save Arobio was
approached by the
Division I program at
University of the Pacic
with a partial baseball
scholarship. And Arobio
jumped on it.
There was interest
that was brewing for a while, Burlingame
manager Shawn Scott said. It all kind of
fell into place. They reached out to him and
liked what he brought.
While he was recruited as an inelder,
Arobio quickly turned heads on the mound.
During fall ball, Arobios dynamic arm put
him in the mix as a two-way player both
an inelder and a pitcher. Once the regular
season rolled around, however, it quickly
became apparent the right-handers talents
were best suited for the bullpen.
And it was as a reliever that Arobio
excelled.
I was doing well pitching, Arobio said.
It was actually easy to accept no more posi-
tion playing because I was still playing. Its
not like I was stripped of everything.
While he received just 18 at-bats on the
season as a position player, Arobio proved a
late-inning xture out of the pen. He ranked
second on the Tigers with 22 appearances,
posting a 2-1 record with a 3.63 ERA. Ayear
after serving as Burlingames closer in

ith a career that revolves
around sports, I sometimes
forget to simply watch sports
as a fan.
When I spend most of my work week
tracking statistics for any number of
events, sometimes the last thing I want
to do is watch more sports in my free
time. Even worse, having to keep stats
just to keep me inter-
ested in a game or
match.
Saturday, however,
was one of those
days that reminded
me the only reality
television I really
enjoy watching is
the original reality
programming: sports
on television.
Let me apologize
right now to my wife and daughter for
doing nothing other than watching
sports Saturday. I did make up for it, how-
ever, on Sunday which Ill get into
later.
Anyway, for whatever reason I woke up
at 6 a.m. and couldnt go back to sleep. I
realized the French Open mens champi-
onship match was being played so while
it wasnt breakfast at Wimbledon, it was
coffee at the French as I watched Novac
Djokovic take the rst set from Rafael
Nadal. I saw the rst few breaks of the
second set, noticed Rafa won set No. 2
and was well on his way to his ninth
French Open title in 10 years. Nadal is
the best player to ever set foot on clay
and No. 2 is not even close.
I spent about two hours with the tennis
match before taking the dog out to play
fetch and run some errands. I brought
lunch back home and settled in for the
San Jose Earthquakes-Toronto FC Major
League Soccer game. Injuries blunted San
Joses attack and a dubious penalty called
against the Quakes led to the games only
goal in the rst half.

Jeff Carter, right, celebrates celebrates a rst-period goal with teammate Dwight King as the
Kings continue to dominate the Stanley Cup nals.Los Angeles is now up 3-0 in the series,one
win away from its second championship in three years.
By Ira Podell
NEW YORK Jonathan Quick and the
Los Angeles Kings are close to nishing off
the New York Rangers in a big hurry.
The All-Star goalie had his best game of
the nals by far, making 32 saves to put the
Kings on the cusp of another coronation
with a 3-0 victory over New York in Game 3
on Monday night.
Los Angeles escaped with two overtime
wins at home and then took complete com-
mand inside Madison Square Garden to take
a 3-0 series edge. The Kings are a win away
from winning their second Stanley Cup in
three years.
The Kings took their rst lead of the
series on Jeff Carters goal in the nal sec-
ond of the rst period and then stretched the
edge to three goals in the second some-
thing the Rangers failed to do in California.
New York will face elimination at home
Wednesday night in Game 4.
We got to make sure thats our best game,
the fourth one is always the toughest to
win, Quick said.
While there has been only one comeback
from a 3-0 hole in the nals, the Kings
erased such a decit in the rst round against
San Jose.
Defenseman Jake Muzzin scored a power-
play goal in the second period, and Mike
Richards pushed the lead to three with a goal
off a 2-on-1 in the middle frame.
Henrik Lundqvist was hardly at fault on
the goals, and nished with 12 saves.
But Quick was perfect.
The Connecticut native, who grew up a
fan of the Rangers and 1994 Stanley Cup-
winning goalie Mike Richter, made a bril-
liant save with his stick blade to deny
Derick Brassard with 8:40 left in the second
shortly after a Rangers power play. That
stop came on the heels of Brassard having
two chances during the advantage off a
rebound of Brad Richards shot. Brassards
rst attempt was blocked, and the second
Kings a win away

LOS ANGELES Los Angeles Clippers
owner Donald Sterling has pulled his sup-
port from a deal to sell the team to former
Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer and will pur-
sue his $1 billion federal lawsuit against the
NBA, his attorney said Monday.
We have been instructed to prosecute the
lawsuit, said attorney Maxwell Blecher. He
said co-owner Donald Sterling would not be
signing off on the deal to sell.
Donald Sterling issued a one-page state-
ment dated Monday titled The Team is not
for Sale and said that from the onset, I did
not want to sell the Los Angeles Clippers.
The $2 billion sale was negotiated by his
wife Shelly Sterling after Donald Sterlings
racist remarks to a girlfriend were publicized
and the NBAmoved to oust him as owner.
The lawsuit alleges the league violated his
constitutional rights by relying on infor-
mation from an illegal recording that pub-
licized racist remarks he made to a girl-
friend. It also said the league committed a
breach of contract by ning Sterling $2.5
million and that it violated antitrust laws by
trying to force a sale.
I have decided that I must ght to protect
my rights, Donald Sterling said. While
my position may not be popular, I believe
that my rights to privacy and the preserva-
tion of my rights to due process should not
be trampled. I love the team and have dedi-
cated 33 years of my life to the organiza-
tion. I intend to ght to keep the team.
Donald Sterling had agreed to ink the deal
and drop the suit last week assuming all
their differences had been resolved, his
attorneys said. But individuals close to the
negotiations who werent authorized to
speak publicly said he decided to not sign
the papers after learning the NBA wont
revoke its lifetime ban and ne.
There was never a discussion involving
the NBA in which we would modify Mr.
Sterlings penalty in any way whatsoever.
Any suggestion otherwise is complete fab-
rication, NBAspokesman Mike Bass said.
Shelly Sterling and her attorney Pierce
ODonnell declined to comment through
representatives.
Shelly Sterling utilized her authority as
sole trustee of The Sterling Family Trust,
which owns the Clippers, to take bids for
the team and ultimately negotiate a deal
with Ballmer. The deal would be record-
breaking if approved by the NBAs owners.
An individual familiar with the negotia-
tions who wasnt authorized to speak pub-
licly said Monday that there were two
options for Donald Sterling to either
sign or go to court. But even if he wins in
court, hes ultimately winning a judgment
against himself because his wife Shelly
Sterling has agreed to indemnify the NBA
against all lawsuits, including by her hus-
band, the individual said.
Donald Sterlings comments to V.
Stiviano included telling her to not bring
black people to Clippers games, specical-
ly mentioning Hall of Famer Magic
Johnson. They resulted in a storm of out-
rage from the public and players and even
prompted President Barack Obama to com-
ment on what he called Sterlings incredi-
bly offensive racist statements.
Donald Sterling said in his statement that
he was extremely sorry for the hurtful
statements he made privately but said them
out of anger and jealousy and didnt intend
for them to be public.
NBA Commissioner Adam Silver ulti-
mately decided to ban Donald Sterling for
life, ne him millions, and began efforts to
force Sterling to sell the team. Those efforts
ended with Shelly Sterlings deal with
Ballmer.
If this deal ultimately goes through, its
terms allow Shelly Sterling to remain close
to the organization by allowing for up to 10
percent of the team or $200 million to
be spun off into a charitable foundation that
she would essentially run.
Shelly Sterling and Ballmer would be co-
chairs of the foundation, which would target
underprivileged families, battered women,
minorities and inner city youths.
Under the deal Shelly Sterling would also
get the title of owner emeritus and be enti-
tled to continuing perks such as oor seats,
additional seats at games and parking.
One of the individuals said the deal also
includes conditions that allow Ballmer to
buy back the 10 percent portion of the team
for a pre-designated price upon Shelly
Sterlings death.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. Six-time
Olympic gold medalist swimmer Amy Van
Dyken was airlifted to a hospital over the
weekend after an accident on an all-terrain
vehicle left her with no feeling in her feet
or legs.
The 46-year-old swimmer, who goes by
her married name Van Dyken Rouen, was
injured Friday evening, according to a
Show Low Police Department report. The
ATV was driving hit a curb in a restaurant
parking lot and sent her ying over a drop-
off between 5 to 7 feet.
Rouen was found lying on the ground
next to the ATVand told EMS personnel she
could not move her toes or feel anything
touching her legs, the report said. She was
strapped to a backboard and airlifted to
Scottsdale Osborn Medical Center. Ahospi-
tal spokeswoman did not immediately
return calls for an update on her condition.
Awitness at the scene said he saw Rouen
launch over the curb and found her unre-
sponsive when he arrived on the scene, the
report added. Rouen was not wearing a hel-
met at the time, but apparently did not suf-
fer head trauma.
Her husband, former Denver Broncos
punter Tom Rouen, told police ofcers he
had changed the throttle mechanism on the
ATV from a thumb accelerator to a twist
accelerator a few days before the accident,
though wasnt sure if it was a factor in the
accident. He also said Amy had not been
drinking alcohol that evening.
Rouen was a huge star at the 1996 Atlanta
Olympics, where she became the rst U.S.
female athlete to win four gold medals in a
single games. She captured the 50-meter
freestyle and 100 buttery and also compet-
ed on the winning relay teams in the 400
free and 400 medley.

SAN FRANCISCO Ian Desmond had a
career-high ve RBIs and Stephen Strasburg
won his third straight decision for the
Washington Nationals in their 9-2 victory over
the San Francisco Giants on Monday night.
Denard Span added a triple and two doubles
to help the Nationals win for the eighth
time in 10 games. Desmond had three hits
and Jayson Werth drove in two runs.
San Francisco had its ve-game winning
streak snapped.
Strasburg (6-4) allowed four hits over six
innings and retired his nal 10 hitters. He
struck out seven and did not walk a batter,
improving to 3-0 against the Giants with
29 strikeouts in 25 innings.
Nationals starters have struck out 52 and
walked one in their last seven games.
Ryan Vogelsong (4-3) retired 10 of 11 bat-
ters during one stretch and pitched into the
seventh. But he gave up six runs and nine
hits, ending his three-game winning streak.
Desmond, who owns a .373 career batting
average against the Giants, also has an
impressive .434 mark (23 for 53) with 51
RBIs with the bases loaded.
His two-run single with the sacks full in
the third gave Washington a 4-1 lead.
Desmond tripled home a run in the second
and added a two-run double in the seventh.
Werth drove in the Nationals rst run in
the rst inning and added an RBI single in
the seventh. He also scored on an error.
The Giants scored their rst run in the sec-

Chisenhall tabs 9 RBIs for Tribe
Lonnie Chisenhall had nine RBIs and
three home runs in a ve-hit game, Michael
Brantley scored ve times and the Cleveland
Indians beat the Texas Rangers 17-7
Monday night.
Major League Baseball said it was the
first time a player went 5 for 5 with three
homers and nine RBIs, since the RBI
became a statistic in 1920. He also is only
the fourth big leaguer to have at least five
hits, nine RBIs and three homers in a game
first since Bostons Fred Lynn in 1975,
according to STATS.
Strasburg tames Giants
three-game sweep by the Athletics 1 1/2
weeks earlier at Oakland. They broke a 1-all
tie in the fourth with a bloop RBI single by
Raul Ibanez. Ibanezs hit drove in David
Freese, who drew a leadoff walk after walk-
ing all four times up in Sundays game.
Stephen Vogt and Yoenis Cespedes each
had two hits against Richards, who was 0-3
with a 7.50 ERA in his six previous career
starts against the As. Vogt opened the scor-
ing in the second inning with a two-out RBI
single after a double by Cespedes.
Chavez hit Conger on the right elbow with
his rst pitch of the third, after Richards
plunked John Jaso on the left foot with two
out and the bases empty in the top half.

was stopped by Quick.
The Kings goalie was also on his toes
just 8 seconds into the third period when
Chris Kreider came in alone but was
stopped in tight.
That eliminated the little hope the sold-
out, towel-waving crowd had of a big come-
back.
You make one save, and youre trying to
make the next one and go from there,
Quick said. They got a great team so
youre not trying to take anything for
granted while its going on. Youre just try-
ing to make one save at a time. The team
played great in front of me cleared out a lot
of rebounds that I left in front.
Los Angeles took its first in-game lead
in the series when Carter scored with 10th
of the playoffs on Los
Angeles fifth shot. Carter
came in and snapped a hard
drive that clipped the skate
of diving defenseman Dan
Girardi in front of
Lundqvist and caromed
inside the right post with
0.7 seconds on the clock.
The red and green lights behind Lundqvist
both ashed at the same time while the
Kings celebrated. At no point did Los
Angeles hold the lead at home in the rst
two games until they ended each contest
with an overtime goal.
The quick pace played into the Rangers
preferred style, but New York managed only
four shots in the period. The Rangers led 2-
0 in each of the rst two games but couldnt
hold on. They nearly took the lead again
when Mats Zuccarello faced an empty net at
the left post with 7:24 remaining, yet he
was stopped by Quicks lunging stick.
Playing with the lead didnt work for New
York in LA. The Rangers early 2-0 lead in
the series opener became a 3-2 loss when
Justin Williams scored in overtime. They
held three two-goal leads in Game 2, only
to be thwarted when Kings captain Dustin
Brown won it in double overtime on
Saturday.
Quick had plenty of support in front of him
to post his second shutout in these playoffs
and ninth overall in the postseason.
Muzzin made it 2-0 at 4:17 of the second
after former Rangers forward Marian
Gaborik and Anze Kopitar worked the puck
up the right wing wall to Muzzin at the
point for a shot that struck New Yorks
Martin St. Louis and found its way past
Lundqvist.
Richards nished a 2-on-1 with Trevor
Lewis when his attempted pass across

collegiate level, tabbing 24 strikeouts

Not bad considering Arobio only started
pitching as a high school senior.
I always had a really good arm from short-
stop and coaches would put me in because they
thought I could pitch, and Id be honestly ter-
rible, Arobio said.
With Burlingames stacked pitching staff in
2013, Arobio found his niche closing out
games. Arobio notched eight saves in support
of a starting rotation which featured right-
hander Grant Goodman, who this year earned a
spot in the starting rotation at USF, and left-
hander Tommy Cauleld, who took 2013 PAL
Bay Division Pitcher of the Year honors.
He started nding his pitching stroke sen-
ior year, Scott said. It was always there. It
was just a matter of condence for him. He
started getting his condence late in the year,
and we rolled with it.
Going back to his days of Hillsborough
Little League with Goodman, Arobio is still
amazed at the depth of pitching the Panthers
amassed in making a Central Coast Section
Division II quarternal run in 2013. But
Arobios importance in anchoring the
Panthers at shortstop was what dened his
role in high school.
We tried (pitching on the frosh-soph
team) his freshman year when I had him and
he just didnt have the condence, Scott
said. And he was too valuable up the mid-
dle at the time to take him away from short-
stop. We had plenty of pitching so we did-
nt need him as much.
Arobio was predominately a fastball
pitcher in high school, mixing in an occa-
sional lazy curveball to keep batters hon-
est. During fall ball at Pacific though, the
Tigers coaching staff allowed their pitch-
ers to only throw fastballs and changeups.
It was there he scrapped the lazy breaking
pitch altogether and refined his off-speed
offering with a split-finger grip. It was the
two-pitch combo which served him
throughout his freshman season.
In an attempt to add a third pitch to his
repertoire, Arobio is currently reworking
his breaking pitch with a slider grip.
Playing this summer with the Matsu
Miners of the Alaskan Summer League, he
has a rough timeline of two months to per-
fect the pitch. The Miners season got
underway this week, and they hosted their
home opener Monday night.
And while Arobio expressed the desire to
ultimately earn a shot at becoming a start-
ing pitcher, Pacific is poised to tout an
exceptional bullpen in the coming years.
The two standout freshmen on this years
team were Arobio and right-hander John
Jaeger, who took over as the Tigers closer
midway through the season.
I have an ambition to eventually be a
starter, because thats everyones dream,
Arobio said. But as of right now the
bullpen. It was fun getting to pitch, if not
every day, pretty often.
With former big-leaguer Ed Sprague at the
helm, Pacic nished the season with a 15-
12 record in West Coast Conference play,
but fell to sixth place by dropping two of
three games to Loyola Marymount in the
nal conference series of the season. Only
the top four teams in the WCC qualify for
the postseason tourney.
We came off a year that was really bad for
the team, Arobio said. So, this year we had
a bunch of great guys and all had a goal of
working hard. We had an absolute great
year. We came within one game away from
making the WCC tournament, which was our
goal from day one.

By Stephen Hawkins
FORT WORTH, Texas Kyle Bacak exe-
cuted a suicide squeeze bunt to send home
the tiebreaking run in the top of the ninth
inning and TCU rallied to beat Pepperdine
6-5 Monday and advance to the College
World Series for the second time in ve sea-
sons.
The Horned Frogs (47-16), the visiting
team in Game 3 despite hosting the super
regional, started the ninth with three con-
secutive hits off Pepperdine closer Eric
Karch (4-2) that included Dylan Fitzgeralds
tying RBI double.
There was an ineld popout before No. 9
batter Bacak bunted. Jerrick Suiter, who had
reached on a high-chopping ineld single,
charged home from third.
TCU closer Riley Ferrell (2-1) got the
nal six outs. Pepperdine (43-18) had two
runners on when Bryan Langlois struck out
to end the game.
The Frogs play their College World Series
opener Sunday against fellow Big 12 team
Texas Tech. A third Big 12 team, Texas, is
on the other side of the bracket in Omaha,
Nebraska.
The rst batter Ferrell faced in the eighth
with two men on was Brad Anderson, whose
sacrice y put Pepperdine up 5-4.
Brandon Caruso and Aaron Brown home-
red for the Waves, the West Coast
Conference regular-season champ trying to
get to the College World Series for the rst
time since winning the 1992 national
championship. Steve Rodriguez, their 11th-
year head coach, was then an All-American
inelder for Pepperdine.
TCU tied the game at 4-all with two runs
in the sixth. Boomer White, who had an
inning-ending strikeout in the third with
the bases loaded, had a two-out RBI single
and Kevin Cron followed with a run-scoring
double.
Cron led off the fth with his fth homer
of the season, getting the Frogs within 3-2
after they left eight runners on base the pre-
vious four innings.
Browns opposite-eld solo homer to left
with two outs in the fth put Pepperdine up
4-2.
It was the 13th homer of the season for
Brown, the two-way player who Friday was
drafted in the third round by Philadelphia as
an outelder. In Sundays must-win game for
Pepperdine, after TCU won the super region-
al opener 3-2 on Saturday, Brown pitched
seven scoreless innings and after moving to
center eld threw out the potential tying run
in the eighth inning of a 3-2 victory.
Brown was on deck when the game ended.
Caruso had a leadoff triple in the Waves
first, when right fielder Fitzgerald mis-
played the ball by stepping in before it
went over his head. Caruso scored on
Browns single.
Bacak had an RBI single in the second,
the third consecutive two-out single by the
bottom three batters in the TCU lineup.
Caruso hit a two-out, two-run homer in
the bottom of the second, putting
Pepperdine up 3-1.
Ole Miss heading to Omaha
for rst time in 42 years
LAFAYETTE, La. Pinch-hitter Holt
Perdzock hit a two-run double in the ninth
inning and Mississippi ended a 42-year
College World Series drought by punching
its ticket to Omaha with a 10-4 win over
Louisiana-Lafayette in the deciding game of
the Lafayette Super Regional on Monday
night.
A throwing error on Perdzocks double
allowed another run to score and J.B.
Woodmans sacrice y scored Perdzock to
complete the Rebels four-run rally.
Scott Weathersby (3-1) pitched two score-
less innings for Mississippi (46-19) and
Josh Laxer picked up his sixth save, allow-
ing only an unearned run in 3 1-3 innings.
Austin Anderson and Sikes Orvis homered
in the Rebels three-run fourth.
ULL (58-10) lost back-to-back games for
the rst time all season. Ragin Cajuns
starter Cody Boutte (9-1) went four innings,
giving up four runs on ve hits. ULL pitch-
ers issued eight walks and hit three batters.
Ole Miss will play Virginia on Sunday in
its rst game of the College World Series.
Virginia advances to CWS
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. Sophomore
Josh Sborz went seven shutout innings and

Series for the third time in six seasons.
Junior third baseman Kenny Towns went 3
for 4, driving in four runs on a triple and a
single to force Maryland starter Bobby Ruse
out of the game after 2 1-3 innings. Ruse (7-
3) gave up six runs on six hits and a walk.
Sborz (5-4) allowed four hits and three
walks while striking out nine.
The national No. 3 Cavaliers, the highest
remaining seed in the CWS, will play

California Chrome owner apologizes
NEW YORK California Chrome co-
owner Steve Coburn has apologized for his
bitter remarks after his horse failed to win
the Triple Crown.
On ABCs Good Morning America on
Monday, Coburn says he was very ashamed
of myself. Very ashamed. I need to apolo-
gize to a lot of people, including my wife,
Carolyn. She tried to intervene as
Saturdays interview got out of control.
He also apologized to the connections of
winning horse Tonalist, saying: I did not
mean to take anything away from them.
On Saturday, he had said that Tonalist
took the cowards way out by skipping
the rst two legs of the Triple Crown.
Coburn says he wanted this so much, for
this horse to win the Triple Crown for the
people of America.

communities into action to help families in need move into the economic
mainstream and put an end to poverty housing.
Thrivent Builds Homes volunteers work in local communities to help
build simple, decent, affordable homes. All building supplies are provided
on site. And no previous construction experience is needed. The Habitat
partner families themselves put in hundreds of hours of their own labor,
building their own home, as well as other Habitat homes. The homes
are then sold to partner families at no proft and fnanced with no-proft
mortgages. The homeowners monthly mortgage payments are used to
build more homes.
Fifty percent of the funding for each home will be contributed by Thrivent
Financial, its members and local chapters. The remaining funding will be
raised through the ongoing efforts of Habitat affliates, community and
business partnerships, and local congregations.

Belmont Stakes pregame pro-
gramming, while at the same
time, ipping over to the U.S.-
Nigeria soccer game.
The U.S. Mens National Team
was playing its nal tune-up game
ahead the World Cup and striker
Jozy Altidore looks ready to
break out as he snapped a long
scoreless drought to score both
American goals.
The Belmont Stakes had
California Chrome trying to make
the record books with a Triple
Crown campaign, only to fade
fourth and become the latest
hopeful to fall short.
But the race was a mere warmup
as Chromes co-owner, Steve
Coburn, gave one of the all-time
best sour grapes interview of all
time. He chastised and even
insulted a number of other horses
and their syndicates, saying by
not racing in the rst two legs of
the Triple Crown the Kentucky
Derby and Preakness Stakes
they were ganging up on Chrome
to deny him the win.
Cowards way out, was a
direct quote. Even better, howev-
er, was when the camera and
microphone captured Coburns
wife poo-pooing her husbands
acerbic interview, to which he
responded, I dont care!
Coburn nally came out with an
apology Monday, but I found it
refreshing for someone to nally
have the guts to say what was on
his mind. Coburn and his partner
had been lauded for their rough-
around-the-edges personas in the
decided prim and proper world of
high-stakes horse racing. Who
else would you expect to call
these blue-bloods cowards?
After the race, I spent a little
time watching the Oakland As-
Baltimore game, missing the
histrionics with Baltimores
Manny Machado, while also tak-
ing in some of Game 2 of the NHL
Stanley Cup nals. I left it with
the New York Rangers holding a
4-2 lead after two periods and was
shocked to learn the L.A. Kings
tied it and then won in overtime.
At this point, I jokingly told
my wife I could spend the rest of
the day watching sports and,
when she didnt balk at the idea,
it was on to the Giants-New York
Mets game. San Francisco start-
ing pitcher Tim Hudson struggled,
but the offense bailed him out
with a Michael Morse walk-off
single.
With nearly 14 hours of sports
under my belt, it was time to
chalk up Saturday to being a good
day, knowing there was more
Sunday.
***
After a day of watching sports
Saturday, I decided to become a
participant Sunday.
I oated the idea Saturday to my
wife Id like to go to the beach
Sunday and take my daughter
bodyboarding for the rst time. It
was triple digits by 1 p.m. at
home Sunday and took almost two
hours to get to Half Moon Bay,
where the temperature was nearly
40 degrees cooler than the valley.
I rented a wetsuit and a couple
boards and headed out to El
Granadas Surfers Beach, right
next to the jetty off of Highway 1.
The waves werent massive,
which was ne for my daughter,
who took to the board and water
like a natural. Faces were in the
four- to six-foot range at their
max, but pretty mushy and sur-
prisingly fast, making it difcult
to actually ride the waves.
Its the rst time in several
years that Ive actually been on a
bodyboard the last being about
seven years prior with my then-4-
year-old daughter. Before that, I
would say it had been about 25
years since Id been out there.
Both dad and daughter had a
great time and my daughter has
already asked about going again.
Maybe Im about to revisit my
youth again? This dad stuff is
alright.

HEALTH 17
By Mathew Daly
WASHINGTON More than 57,000 U.S.
military veterans have been waiting 90
days or more for their first VA medical
appointments, and an additional 64,000
appear to have fallen through the cracks,
never getting appointments after enrolling,
the government said Monday in a report
newly demonstrating how deep and wide-
spread the problem is.
Its not just a backlog issue, the wide-
ranging Veterans Affairs review indicated.
Thirteen percent of schedulers in the facili-
ty-by-facility report on 731 hospitals and
outpatient clinics reported being told by
supervisors to falsify appointment sched-
ules to make patient waits appear shorter.
The audit is the rst nationwide look at
the VA network in the uproar that began
with reports two months ago of patients
dying while awaiting appointments and of
cover-ups at the Phoenix VA center. A pre-
liminary review last month found that long
patient waits and falsied records were sys-
temic throughout the VAmedical network,
the nations largest single health care
provider serving nearly 9 million veterans.
This behavior runs counter to our core
values, the report said. The overarching
environment and culture which allowed this
state of practice to take root must be con-
fronted head-on.
Acting VA Secretary Sloan Gibson said
Monday that VA ofcials have contacted
50,000 veterans across the country to get
them off waiting lists and into clinics and
are in the process of contacting 40,000
more.
The controversy forced VASecretary Eric
Shinseki to resign May 30. Shinseki took
the blame for what he decried as a lack of
integrity through the network. Legislation
is being written in both the House and
Senate to allow more veterans who cant get
timely VAappointments to see doctors list-
ed as providers under Medicare or the mili-
tarys TRICARE program. The proposals
also would make it easier to re senior VA
regional ofcials and hospital administra-
tors.
House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio,
said the report demonstrated that Congress
must act immediately.
The fact that more than 57,000 veterans
are still waiting for their first doctor
appointment from the VAis a national dis-
grace, Boehner said.
The new audit said a 14-day agency target
for waiting times was not attainable,
given poor planning and a growing demand
for VA services as Vietnam-era vets age. It
called the 2011 decision by senior VAof-
cials to set the target, and then base bonus-
es on meeting it, an organizational leader-
ship failure.
Aprevious inspector generals investiga-
tion into the troubled Phoenix VA Health
Care System found that about 1,700 veter-
ans in need of care were at risk of being
lost or forgotten after being kept off an
ofcial, electronic waiting list.
The report issued Monday offers a broader
picture of the overall system. The audit
includes interviews with more than 3,772
employees nationwide between May 12 and
June 3. Respondents at 14 sites reported
having been sanctioned or punished over
scheduling practices.
Wait times for new patients far exceeded
the 14-day goal, the audit said. For exam-
ple, the wait time for primary care screening
appointment at Baltimores VA health care
center was almost 81 days. At Canandaigua,
New York, it was 72 days. On the other
hand, at Coatesville, Pennsylvania, it was
only 17 days and in Bedford, Massachusetts
just 12 days. The longest wait was in
Honolulu 145 days.
But for veterans already in the system,
waits were much shorter.
For example, established patients at VA
facilities in New Jersey, Connecticut and
Battle Creek, Michigan, waited an average
of only one day to see health care providers.
The longest average wait for veterans
already in the system was 30 days, in
Fayetteville, North Carolina, a military-
heavy region with Fort Bragg Army Base
and Pope Air Force Base nearby.
It was not clear whether all 64,000 veter-
ans who did not get appointments remained
interested in being seen by the VA.
Despite the long waiting list, the audit
said most veterans seeking care are able to
get timely appointments. About 96 percent
of the 6 million appointments scheduled at
VAfacilities as of May 15 were slated with-
in 30 days, the report said.
That reassuring statistic came with a
warning, however. Under VAguidelines that
have since been rescinded, veterans were
supposed to be seen within 14 days of their
desired date for a primary care appointment.
The inspector general described a process in
which schedulers simply selected the next
available appointment and used that as the
purported desired date. That allowed numer-
ous and false zero-day wait times, the
IG said.
Gibson, the acting VAsecretary, said the
department is hiring new workers at over-
burdened clinics and other health care facil-
ities across the nation and is deploying
mobile medical units to treat additional vet-
erans.
The VAbelieves it will need $300 million
over the next three months to accelerate
medical care for veterans who have been
waiting for appointments, a senior agency
official said in a conference call with
reporters. That effort would include expand-
ing clinics hours and paying for some vet-
erans to see non-VAproviders. The ofcial
said he could not say how many additional
health providers the VA would need to
improve its service.
The report said 112 or 15 percent of
the 731 VA facilities that auditors visited
will require additional investigation,
because of indications that data on patients
appointment dates may have been falsied,
or that workers may have been instructed to
falsify lists, or other problems.
Gibson also has ordered a hiring freeze at
the Washington headquarters of the Veterans
Health Administration, the VAs health care
arm, and at 21 regional administrative
ofces, except for critical positions per-
sonally approved by him.
Boehner said the House would act on leg-
islation this week to allow veterans waiting
at least a month for VAappointments to see
non-VAdoctors, and said the Senate should
approve it, too. An emerging bipartisan
compromise in the Senate is broader than
that, but senators have yet to vote on it.

SLEEP APNEA
& Snoring
Treatment
Dental mouth guard treatsSleep Apnea and snoring
tor in creating more successful stu-
dents, the report said.
Contention between administrators
and teachers at charter and traditional
public schools, as well as between
school administrators and teachers
unions, stand in the way of construc-
tive collaboration benecial to stu-
dents in this county. Studies across the
country have cited underlying tensions
between charter and non-charter
schools, according to the report.
These adversarial feelings were reg-
ularly conrmed by leaders of both
charter and non-charter schools in this
county, as well as by others familiar
with the relationships, the report
stated. The grand jury found that lead-
ers of charter and non-charter schools
expressed both their own eagerness to
open communication with the other
side, while at the same time acknowl-
edging a co-existing feeling that some
emotional component often blamed
on the other party prevented that
communication from occurring. Some
tensions between the two sectors
appear to be based on a fear by tradi-
tional public schools that charter
schools are stealing students.
One district leader quoted in the
report stated, it takes a lot of work.
and its all on top of what is already a
full-time job to work on communica-
tions between charters and non-char-
ters.
County Superintendent Anne
Campbell said she agrees with the
assessment that there could be
improvements in sharing information
and that the county Ofce of Education
is the logical entity to facilitate that
sharing.
Although the county Office of
Education promotes its professional
development offerings to educators
countywide both charter and non-char-
ter, we can always do more to explicit-
ly connect our local school leaders
with their peers, Campbell said in a
statement. We want to support shar-
ing of best practices at every level of
our educational system.
The Sequoia Union High School
District has two charter schools and
there is excellent communication
about practices with its charter
schools, said Trustee Carrie Du Bois.
Our entire board is committed to the
success of all of our charters, she
wrote in an email. I also believe that
innovation and best practices can be
found at both charter and traditional
schools throughout San Mateo
County. As a participant in the San
Mateo County Kent Awards for the past
nine years, I have seen amazing pro-
grams and outstanding teaching at tra-
ditional public schools.
She noted the Kent Awards are the
most powerful way to share best prac-
tices.
I have also observed both high-
quality and low-performing charter
schools, she wrote. One of my
favorite quotes is from the educational
journalist John Merrow, Never forget
that the name charter on a schoolhouse
door reveals no more about a schools
quality than the word restaurant tells
you about the food. There is no substi-
tute for transparency, high standards
and direct observation.
The study also found that longer
teaching cycles whether in the form
of longer school days or longer school
years are likely to benet students.
Longer teaching cycles have been
repeatedly cited as contributing to bet-
ter student outcomes in research stud-
ies, by local education ofcials, and
even by union representatives, accord-
ing to the report.
In conclusion, the grand jury found
many hurdles to the efcient ow of
information between charter and non-
charter schools in the county, the
report states.
The grand jury has four recommenda-
tions to county school districts due by
Dec. 31. The rst is that each district
needs to develop a plan to determine
the viability of extending the school
day. Each must develop a plan to deter-
mine the viability of extending the
school year. Each must also develop,
at a district level, detailed mission
statements, which include quantiable
goals designed to produce better stu-
dent outcomes. Mission statements
will be posted on a publicly accessible
website.

TRENTON, N.J. Merck & Co. will
spend about $3.85 billion for Idenix
Pharmaceuticals Inc., a small company
developing hepatitis C medicines that,
together with Mercks experimental drugs,
could produce lucrative combo therapies
that quickly cure most patients with the
blood-borne virus aficting tens of mil-
lions.
The price for the deal announced Monday
a per-share bid more than triple Fridays
closing price for Cambridge,
Massachusetts-based Idenix seems high.
However, the latest hepatitis C medicines
command very high prices, the number of
patients keeps rising and Merck was bid-
ding against rivals.
Hepatitis C has become one of the hottest
categories in drug research as companies
race to develop a combination therapy with-
out injections and debilitating side effects.
Some have had their promising candidates
fail after extensive testing, due to dangerous
side effects, but Gilead Sciences Inc. is
already raking in billions of dollars from its
groundbreaking new drug, Sovaldi.
Merck, based in Whitehouse Station, New
Jersey, said it will spend $24.50 in cash for
each Idenix share. Idenix closed at $7.23 on
Friday, then more than tripled at Mondays
opening bell.
The boards of both companies have
approved the deal, which should close in the
third quarter.
Idenix has established a promising port-
folio of hepatitis C candidates based on its
expertise in (certain) technologies,
Mercks research head, Dr. Roger
Perlmutter, said in a statement.
Three Idenix experimental drugs have
reached human testing and one, samatasvir,
is in mid-stage testing. Its in a new drug
class called NS5Ainhibitors, which disrupt
various stages of the virus life cycle. Two
other drugs, known as IDX21437 and
IDX21459, are in a class called nucleotide
prodrugs, which stop the virus from produc-
ing genetic material needed to copy itself.
Merck has been testing two drugs togeth-
er, MK-5172 and MK-8742, that the Food
and Drug Administration has deemed a
breakthrough therapy. Merck will soon
start late-stage testing of the two drugs
together and presumably will study them in
combinations with the Idenix drugs.
About 4.4 million Americans and an esti-
mated 170 million people worldwide have
chronic hepatitis C, the leading cause of
liver cancer and, in wealthy countries, the
top reason for liver transplants. In the U.S.,
it kills more than 16,000 people a year.
While most people infected dont know it
because there are no obvious symptoms, a
growing number have been identied and
started treatment in the last few years as
more effective medicines have been
approved. That number is expected to grow
as the U.S. population ages and patients
infected decades ago through intravenous
drug use, or from blood transfusions before
the early 1990s, are diagnosed.
Merck has been a major player in hepati-
tis C since acquiring Schering-Plough in
2009. Back then, treatment was limited to
twice-a-day pills called ribavirin and self-
injections of a long-acting, synthetic form
of immune system protein interferon.
Treatment often lasted 48 weeks, only about
40 percent of patients were cured, and u-
like symptoms and other side effects of the
interferon kept many patients from com-
pleting treatment.
In 2011, the FDAapproved two drugs in a
class called protease inhibitors, Mercks
Victrelis and Incivek from Vertex
Pharmaceuticals. Those are taken with rib-
avirin and interferon, work by blocking an
enzyme needed for copying the virus, and
boost the cure rate to about 75 percent.

WASHINGTON In one of the most
ambitious attempts yet to thwart
Alzheimers disease, a major study got
underway Monday to see if an experi-
mental drug can protect healthy seniors
whose brains harbor silent signs that
theyre at risk.
Scientists plan to eventually scan
the brains of thousands of older volun-
teers in the U.S., Canada and Australia
to nd those with a sticky build-up
believed to play a key role in develop-
ment of Alzheimers the rst time so
many people without memory prob-
lems get the chance to learn the poten-
tially troubling news.
Having lots of that gunky protein
called beta-amyloid doesnt guarantee
someone will get sick. But the big
question: Could intervening so early
make a difference for those who do?
We have to get them at the stage
when we can save their brains, said Dr.
Reisa Sperling of Bostons Brigham
and Womens Hospital and Harvard
Medical School, who is leading the
huge effort to nd out.
Researchers are just beginning to
recruit volunteers, and on Monday, a
Rhode Island man was hooked up for an
IV infusion at Butler Hospital in
Providence, the rst treated.
Peter Bristol, 70, of Wakefield,
Rhode Island, gured he was at risk
because his mother died of Alzheimers
and his brother has it.
I felt I needed to be proactive in
seeking whatever therapies might be
available for myself in the coming
years, said Bristol, who said he was
prepared when a PET scan of his brain
showed he harbored enough amyloid to
qualify for the research.
Just because I have it doesnt mean
Im going to get Alzheimers, he
stressed. But Bristol and his wife are
going into the situation with our eyes
wide open.
He wont know until the end of the
so-called A4 Study it stands for Anti-
Amyloid Treatment in Asymptomatic
Alzheimers whether he received
monthly infusions of the experimental
medicine, Eli Lilly & Co.s solanezum-
ab, or a dummy drug.
Solanezumab is designed to help
catch amyloid before it builds into the
brain plaques that are a hallmark of
Alzheimers. It failed in earlier studies
to treat full-blown Alzheimers but it
did appear to help slow mental decline
in patients with mild disease, raising
interest in testing it even earlier.
Scientists now think Alzheimers
begins ravaging the brain at least a
decade before memory problems
appear, much like heart disease is trig-
gered by quiet cholesterol build-up.
Many believe the best chance of pre-
venting or at least slowing the disease
requires intervening, somehow, when
people still appear healthy.
The $140 million study, funded by
the National Institutes of Health, Lilly
and others, will track if participants
memory and amyloid levels change
over three years.
Whether this particular drug works or
not, the Alzheimers study is being
watched closely as a chance to learn
more about how amyloid works and
how people handle the uncertainty of
knowing its there.
Amyloid we know is a huge risk fac-
tor, but someone can have a head full of
amyloid and not decline mentally,
Sperling said. We need to understand
more about why some brains are
resilient and some are not.
Before any brain scans, interested
65- to 85-year-olds will undergo cog-
nitive tests to be sure their memory is
normal. Volunteers also must be will-
ing to learn their amyloid levels, and
researchers can turn away those whose
psychological assessments suggest
they may not cope well with the news.
Sperling expects to screen more than
5,000 healthy seniors to nd the need-
ed 1,000 participants, who will be
monitored for anxiety or distress.
It is breaking new ground, said Dr.
Laurie Ryan of the NIHs National
Institute on Aging. We really do have
to understand how that affects people.
More than 35 million people world-
wide have Alzheimers or similar
dementia, including about 5 million in
the U.S., numbers expected to rise rap-
idly as the baby boomers age.
Alzheimers affects 1 in 9 people
over age 65, and about a third of those
85 and older, according to the
Alzheimers Association.
Todays medications only temporari-
ly ease some symptoms, and scientists
dont even know exactly how the dis-
ease forms. A leading theory is that
amyloid plaques kick off the disease
but tangles of a second protein, named
tau, speed up the brain destruction.
As scientists shift their attention to
the still healthy, a few studies are under
way to try blocking Alzheimers in
people genetically at risk to get a form
of the disease that runs in their fami-
lies.
The A4 study widens the focus
beyond a genetic link.
Like Bristol, the rst participant,
some people do want to know if theyre
at risk, said Dr. Jason Karlawish, a
bioethicist at the University of
Pennsylvania who helped design the
studys psychological precautions.
After all, many already get tested for
Alzheimers-related genes.
Healthy seniors tested in bid to block Alzheimers
Scientists plan to scan the brains of thousands of older
volunteers in the U.S.,Canada and Australia to nd those with
a sticky build-up believed to play a key role in development
of Alzheimers the rst time so many people without
memory problems get the chance to learn the potentially
troubling news.

case but said prosecutors are review-
ing the case submitted by Redwood
City police.
He said his office hopes to make a
decision this week about whether
charges will be filed against Scott.
The judge is scheduled to be
arraigned on Aug. 5 in the same
Redwood City courthouse where he
serves.
He was appointed as a San Mateo
County Judge in 2003 and is serving
a six-year term set to expire in 2017.
JUDGE
The issues of wildland fires
weighs heavily on the fire depart-
ments minds right now, what with
the drought and whats been going
on in San Diego. Local fire depart-
ments believe this area has been real-
ly lucky that they havent experi-
enced something like the Oakland
Hills fire. That could very easily hap-
pen to any of the WUI communities
in the Bay Area and there are several
of us. San Carlos, Belmont,
Hillsborough, these are areas that
were designated wildland-urban inter-
face by the state, by the state fire
marshal, Nolfi said.
After the devastating Oakland Hills
Fire in 1991, where 25 people were
killed and thousands of homes were
destroyed, the state passed legisla-
tion that directed the California
Department of Forestry and Fire
Protection to map areas of signifi-
cant hazards and devise various miti-
gation strategies to reduce the risk of
fires, according to the report.
Deputy Fire Chief Michael Gaffney
said the high risk zoning designa-
tion is two-fold. It would require new
construction to be built with materi-
als and construction practices that
are resistant to fire and it would
require landowners to maintain their
vegetation by keeping grass mowed
and trees trimmed, Gaffney said.
When Cal Fire was in the process
of mapping the state, this portion of
Belmont wasnt included, Gaffney
said. Cal Fire designated most of the
Western Hills, however, perhaps as
an oversight or because it was unfa-
miliar with local geography, the San
Juan Canyon and pockets of the hills
were skipped over, Gaffney said.
The majority of the Western Hills
are built out and only one property
has been constructed since Cal Fires
mapping, according to the report.
If the city decides the San Juan
Canyon faces a very high risk of
wildfires, building regulations would
only apply to new construction,
however, vegetation management
would be required for existing prop-
erty owners, Nolfi said.
There are at least 100 homes and
many undeveloped parcels within the
area and Nolfi estimates only a hand-
ful of new homes would be built in
the San Juan Canyon in the coming
years.
The city currently owns about 27
acres in the canyon after the council
approved the purchase of 35 acres for
$1. 5 million. After selling off 8
acres, the council has since worked
to try and preserve it as open space
in perpetuity.
City Manager Greg Scoles said the
zoning is about correcting Cal Fires
map but, with fire season approach-
ing, the fire department wants to
push the designation soon.
Gaffney said the department has
moved to designate this land because
its previous designation as high risk
expired at the end of 2013.
The new designation would con-
form the entire area and affect how
some will need to maintain their
properties, Gaffney said.
People will need to create a defen-
sible space between heavy vegeta-
tion and buildings, separate vegeta-
tion from fuels and other typical
landscape maintenance work,
Gaffney said. When planting new
landscapes its also best to pick
native species, he added.
Although its important for those
who live or own property in areas
that have a very high risk of wildfire
to maintain their landscape, it
requires uprooting vegetation,
Gaffney said. Trees and root systems
help prevent erosion so when it
rains, and it will rain, it helps pre-
vent landslides, Gaffney said.
Nolfi said staff came before the
City Council in 2012 to designate a
larger portion from Ralston Avenue
to San Mateo and Alameda de las
Pulgas to State Route 92 as very high
risk, however, the council felt the
area was too broad. This time, staff
has only incorporated areas that are
immediately impacted, Nolfi said.
We also feel that its a responsi-
bility that the city has to their citi-
zens, Nolfi said. That they protect
them as much as possible.
The City Council will hear the pro-
posed ordinance at a meeting 6:30
p.m. Tuesday, June 10 at City Hall,
One Twin Pines Lane.

RISK
included the developers as members.
The FPPC found that on April 9,
2012, Foust, attempted to use her
ofcial position to inuence a gov-
ernmental decision in which she had a
nancial interest by proposing that
the City Council place the Saltworks
development project on the November
ballot.
Foust is the paid president and CEO
of the San Mateo County Economic
Development Association and sits on
the Redwood City Council. Both
Cargill Corporation and DMB Pacic
Ventures, the Saltworks project pro-
ponents, were paying dues members
of SAMCEDA. SAMCEDA also
endorsed DMBs 50-50 Balance Plan
for retail, housing and open space on
the former 1,436-acre Saltworks site
just off Highway 101 but Foust was
not part of that decision.
Foust did not want to comment on
the conflict of interest violation
Monday but agreed in a proposed stip-
ulation to settle the case rather than
go through an administrative hearing.
The matter is on the FPPCs June 19
agenda for consideration. The FPPC
could still reject the proposal and
require a full hearing.
Redwood City resident Marsha
Cohen filed the complaint against
Foust in May 2012, a month after the
meeting at which she suggested seek-
ing an advisory vote on whether the
city should scrap the pending
Saltworks proposal or continue wait-
ing for a revised plan on which it
would ultimately vote. The council
indicated plans to deny both the vote
idea and the proposal which had sat
unmoving for three years. Anew plan
was never submitted.
In 2010, the FPPC launched a simi-
lar investigation into allegations
Foust violated the Political Reform
Act with her dual roles. The FPPC
warned Foust to abstain from
Saltworks-related matters from that
point forward. The FPPC also noted
Foust acted on the counsel of then-city
attorney Roy Abrams and issued her a
written warning that future violations
would carry up to $5,000 in nes.

Sexual assault on student
sparks outrage in Egypt
By Hamza Hendawi
CAIRO A string of sexual assaults on women during
celebrations of Egypts presidential inauguration includ-
ing a mass attack on a 19-year-old student who was stripped
in Cairos Tahrir Square prompted outrage Monday as a
video emerged purportedly showing the teenager, bloodied
and naked, surrounded by dozens of men.
Seven men were arrested in connection with the assault
and police were investigating 27 other complaints of sexu-
al harassment against women during Sundays rallies by
tens of thousands of people celebrating Abdel-Fattah el-
Sissis inauguration late into the night, security ofcials
said.
Sexual violence has increasingly plagued large gather-
ings during the past three years of turmoil following the
2011 uprising that ousted autocrat Hosni Mubarak, and
womens groups complained Monday that tough new laws
have not done enough.
Twenty-nine womens rights groups released a joint state-
ment accusing the government of failing do enough to
address the spiraling outbreak of mob attacks on women.
The groups said they had documented more than 250 cases of
mass sexual rape and mass sexual assaults from November
2012 to January 2014.
Combatting that phenomena requires a comprehensive
national strategy, said the statement signed by the
womens groups.
Last week, authorities issued a decree declaring sexual
harassment a crime punishable by up to ve years in prison.
The decree amended Egypts current laws on abuse, which did
not criminalize sexual harassment and only vaguely referred
to such offenses as indecent assault.
Sexual harassment has been one of Egypts enduring
social ills, embedded in the countrys patriarchal conserva-
tive culture, where women are seen as inferior to men.
Movies often portray women as sex objects, leaving them
vulnerable to men who feel empowered by the absence of a
strong legal deterrent.
Libyas top court rejects
appointment of new prime minister
TRIPOLI, Libya Libyas top court on Monday rejected
the Islamist-led parliaments appointment of a new prime
minister in a contested vote, ending one power struggle as a
renegade generals offensive against Islamist militias in the
east rages on.
The Supreme Constitutional Court declared Prime Minister
Ahmed Maitegs appointment unconstitutional, but gave no
further details or instructions. Islamists in parliament and
Maiteg said they would abide by the decision, thus leaving
interim Prime Minister Abdullah al-Thinni in ofce.
The top U.N. envoy to Libya called the decision and prom-
ises to abide by it a sign of hope.
This will not solve the political crisis but at least it would
open the way forward towards a resumption of a normal
political process, Tarek Mitri told reporters after brieng
the U.N. Security Council in New York.
Al-Thinni refused to give up his ofce after last months
vote in parliament, which saw a walkout by secular lawmak-
ers and Islamists secure votes from legislators that oppo-
nents said werent there. Maiteg, a businessman who owns a
luxury hotel in the capital, Tripoli, entered the governments
headquarters last week backed by an Islamist militia.

KARACHI, Pakistan The Pakistani
Taliban threatened more violence Monday
after a ve-hour assault on the nations
busiest airport killed 29 people including
all 10 attackers raising a new challenge
for a U.S. ally trying to end years of ghting
that has claimed thousands of lives.
With recently started peace efforts stalled,
the cautious government of Prime Minister
Nawaz Sharif may be dragged closer to a
decision on whether to take on the militants
in earnest across a country with a long his-
tory of ambiguity when it comes to dealing
with militancy.
A further weakening of stability in the
nuclear power whose tribal regions are
already a hotbed of foment could ripple to
neighboring Afghanistan as international
combat forces prepare to withdraw from that
country.
Everywhere is a threat, warned Interior
Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan. Every
area is a target, every building is a potential
target.
Such an attack in Karachi, Pakistans busi-
ness center, will likely discourage foreign
investment at a time when its economy is
struggling.
The Taliban said the assault on the Jinnah
International Airport in Karachi, Pakistans
largest city, was in revenge for the
November killing of the militant groups
leader in a U.S. drone strike.
In a telephone call to the Associated
Press, the groups spokesman, Shahidullah
Shahid, warned that such attacks will con-
tinue until there is a permanent cease-re.
The attack began late Sunday when 10
gunmen, some disguised as policemen,
stormed into a section of the sprawling air-
port where a terminal for VIP ights and
cargo is located. They opened fire with
machine guns and rocket launchers, spark-
ing a battle with security forces that lasted
until around dawn.
