TENS OF THOUSANDS MARCH FOR OUSTED EGYPTIAN LEADER
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The Woodside man convicted of
shooting his wife twice in the
head and staging the bloody bed-
room of their foreclosed mansion
to look like a suicide to activate
more than $30 million in life
insurance policies that eradicated a
mountain of debt was sentenced
Friday to life in
prison without
the possibility
of parole.
But before
P o o r o u s h a s b
Peter Parineh,
67, received the
sentence, he
read a lengthy
handwritten let-
ter to his three grown children, by
turns telling them the monetary
value of family items, describing
his wifes facelift and blaming
them for what he said was his
wifes suicide.
You three pushed your mom,
my wife for over 35 years, over the
edge, Parineh said after offering a
litany of comments about their
self-entitled attitude and lack of
appreciation for their mother.
Jurors deliberated nearly full
four days in May before convict-
ing Parineh of rst-degree murder
with the special allegation he did
so for nancial gain. Prosecutors
opted against seeking the death
penalty but the sentence imposed
Friday means Parineh will die
behind bars.
But you three dont have the
right to put me in my cofn alive,
he said, in reference to his sen-
tencing.
Judge Lisa Novak, who had to
order Parineh to stand to receive
the sentence, called the defendant
a shameful, petty, little man who
has destroyed a family and
should be ashamed of everything

WASHINGTON A dramatic
tax-raising deal last New Years
looked like it might be a break-
through, signaling improved sec-
ond-term relations between newly
re-elected President Barack Obama
and a divided Congress. At least
thats what the White House
hoped.
But six months later, growing
uncertainty over a sweeping immi-
gration overhaul measure has
dimmed expectations for a big
summertime achievement and left
Obama still in search of a marquee
legislative accomplishment to
mark his second four years.
His advisers now concede that
their best shot at changing the
immigration system might come
in the fall, after
l a w m a k e r s
return from their
August recess.
But that could
be a long shot
during a period
already crowded
with other
issues.
During the
autumn months, Obamas adminis-
tration will be dealing with one of
the most challenging aspects of
the historic health care overhaul
signing up millions of
Americans for insurance coverage.
And if thats not enough, Obama
also will be locked in an unexpect-
ed battle over domestic food aid
while working through budget dis-

Answer: Stanford does not have an
ofcial mascot. Their unofcial mascot
is the Stanford Tree. From 1930 to
1972, the mascot was an Indian, but
that was dropped due to protest from
Native American students. Cals mascot
is Oski the Bear, represented by a per-
son in a bear costume. Prior to 1941,
live bears were used as the mascot.

The Burlingame man convicted of rst-
degree murder in the fatal beating of his 70-
year-old roommate had his verdict reduced and
was sentenced to 16 years to life for the mur-
der he claimed was sparked by repressed mem-
ories of sexual abuse.
The sentence means Lawrence Hoffman,
66, will be eligible for parole when he is 70
instead of 81 as he would have been if Judge
Jack Grandsaert let the jurys rst-degree mur-
der verdict stand. That charge carries 26 years
to life in prison.
But by his ruling, Grandsaert sided with
Hoffmans defense team which argued Friday
that the lesser charge is more appropriate for
the crime.
Anyone on Mars or outside this courtroom
looking at this case would consider it second
degree, attorney Geoff Carr said.
Hoffman conceded during trial to hitting
Joseph Consentino, 70, with a mallet but
claimed it was a self-
defense reaction based on
prior abuse after the victim
demanded oral sex.
However, the jury deliber-
ated two days in May
before convicting
Hoffman of rst-degree
murder, using a deadly
weapon and causing great
bodily injury of a person
over age 60. The prosecu-
tion had contended the killing was not
sparked by repressed sexual abuse memories
but him snapping Dec. 5, 2011 over feel-
ing that Consentino demeaned his family and
possibly over money.
Carr said he and co-attorney May Mar had
argued the case as though voluntary
manslaughter or second-degree murder were
the only logical results for what they said was
a non-premeditated crime and the jurys rst-
degree conviction was a result of our failure
to make it clearer.
Prosecutor Al Serrato said the murder only
appeared impulsive because it doesnt make
sense.
Consentino was struck at least nine times
in the back of the head until he died. Hoffman
then covered the body with three blankets and
ed, confessing to a friend in San Francisco
and eventually going in Southern California
where he surrendered.
Hoffman had moved into Consentinos
Garden Drive apartment in 2011 to make ends
meet and help Consentino sell his late wifes
belongings. Serrato said the two immediately
butted heads. Carr said Hoffman planned to
move out and was in the process of borrowing
money to do so at the time he killed
Consentino. According to the defense,
Consentino clad only in his boxers
brandished a mallet meant to dismantle furni-
ture and demanded oral sex from a surprised
Hoffman who had a towel in his mouth
because of panic attack-induced gagging.
Hoffman allegedly snapped because as a
child he was sodomized by his father while
forced to bark like a dog, then grabbed the
mallet and struck Consentino.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
Aformer custodian and coach at a Belmont
middle school accused of groping two female
students on campus was sentenced Friday to
nine months in jail.
Andre Edwards, 55, pleaded no contest to
two counts of felony false imprisonment and
one misdemeanor count of child annoyance to
avoid trial on multiple molestation charges
and in return for no prison. On Friday, he
received the jail time plus three years proba-
tion. He must attend sex
offender treatment but is
not required to register.
Edwards was alleged to
have put his hands down
the pants of a 13-year-old
girl in 2001 and cupping
the breast and buttock of a
second girl on Nov. 15,
2010 at Ralston Middle
School. After the rst
alleged incident, the girl contacted police but
the case was not prosecuted for lack of cor-
roboration. School ofcials reportedly cau-
tioned Edwards not to be alone in the janitor
ofce with any student prior to the second
allegation.
He has accused the girls of lying and claims
his accuser in the 2001 case has acknowl-
edged to her friend that her accusation was
false.
Edwards worked at the school from
September 1987 until February 2011, when
he retired.

Cargo at seven-year
high at Port of Redwood City
The amount of cargo moving through
the Port of Redwood City is up 13 per-
cent over last year which marks a
seven-year high.
Port Executive Director Mike Giari
credits a signicant increase in Bay
Area construction and quality of build-
ing materials from British Columbia
for the notable jump.
The high quality of the sand and
gravel aggregates from British
Columbia combined with the dwindling
supply of these materials in Northern
California because quarries are unable
to expand triggered a strong demand
that the port beneted from, Giari said
in a prepared statement.
For the scal year ending June 30,
cargo totaled 1,493,190 metric tons,
up from 1,319,918 metric tons the pre-
vious year and the highest amount at
the port since 2006.
Imports of sand and aggregates were
up 21 percent at 1,044,805 metric tons.
The increases helped offset a 2 per-
cent decline in exports of shredded
scrap metal by Sims Metal
Management. Sims exported 304,957
metric tons.
Other cargo at the port last scal year
included 46,825 metric tons of import-
ed gypsum, 63,555 metric tons of
imported bauxite and 30,049 metric
tons of domestic sand.
Ice cream vendor robbed
Three men, one brandishing a knife,
robbed an ice cream vendor on the 200
block of Ninth Lane in South San
Francisco 3:20 p.m. Monday, July 8,
police report.
The rst man pushed the vendor to the
ground, while the second brandished a
knife at him. The third took the ven-
dors wallet out of his pocket. When the
vendor called for help, some neighbors
chased the men away, according to
South San Francisco police.
The rst two are described as men
ages 15 to 25 of heavy build. The third
is described as a man with a skinny
build.
The rst man as wearing a black
hooded sweatshirt, light pants and a
blue bandanna over his face. The second
suspect was wearing a black T-shirt with
a white shirt wrapped around his head.
Two killed, suspect arrested
at S.F. shopping center
Two women were killed and a man was
wounded on Friday before a suspect cov-
ered in blood was arrested at a shopping
center in a crowded San Francisco
neighborhood that is home to police
headquarters and several tech compa-
nies, authorities said.
Investigators were trying to deter-
mine if the shooting was connected to a
botched robbery.
Responding ofcers encountered the
suspect outside the San Francisco
Giftcenter & Jewelrymart in the trendy
South of Market area. At rst they were
not sure if the man, who had blood on
his clothes, was a shooting victim or a
suspect, police Chief Greg Suhr said.
The man, whose name was not
released, opened re at ofcers while
retreating into a restaurant, Suhr said.
The man kept shooting until he appar-
ently ran out of ammunition and surren-
dered, Suhr said.
Ofcers did not return re because the
sidewalks were crowded with shoppers
and residents.

Belmonts Gloria Dei Lutheran Church planning anniversary celebration
By David Wong
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Constant turnover in membership can
spell the end for many institutions, but
Belmonts Gloria Dei Lutheran Church has
stood the test of time for 50 years.
The church and school will mark its 50th
anniversary with a July 21 celebration,
along with events in the fall.
The celebration is open to the public and
there will be two services that day: one at
the normal worship time of 10:30 a.m., as
well as a second service at 4 p.m., said
longtime member Dick McKee.
McKee, a San Mateo resident, is the
longest remaining member of Gloria Dei at
47 years. Hes a part of the churchs
anniversary committee helping to organize
the anniversary celebration. In this capaci-
t y, McKee has made a timeline chronicling
the congregation over the 50 years.
Since joining the church in 1966, McKee
has seen many in the congregation come
and go, because of their professional or
educational opportunities, but one con-
stant has been the multi-generational fami-
lies that have settled in the region.
There have been large families, in fact,
which have been here almost the whole
course of our history, and theyve formed
the core of our membership, McKee said.
The Peninsula church was established
after the Rev. Robert O. Waldschmidt
became pastor of his church in Santa
Clara County. The fluctuating member-
ship of the congregation stands in con-
trast to the long tenures of Gloria Deis
past four pastors, with only two vacan-
cies since 1963.
Other members of the committee have
their own responsibilities, such as Anne
Marquardt. She is the schools kindergarten
teacher of three years after moving from
Austin, Texas.
So as weve been digging through the
history [of the church], Ive learned more
about the congregation. Our church has a
history of strong leadership, lots of musi-
cal ability and 42 years of support for our
grade school, Marquardt wrote in an email.
She, along with the committee decided
on hosting three or four anniversary
events the centerpiece being the July
21 celebration and after-service meal,
organized by Marquardt.
We also came up with ideas for present-
ing the churchs history, selling anniver-
sary memorabilia and hosting concerts,
Marquardt said.
Preachers and special guests have yet to
be determined, but they hope to have for-
mer called workers of the congregation,
as well as former members here to cele-
brate.
The term called worker is used to refer
to all of their workers who are called to
work for the church, instead of being hired,
such as pastors and teachers.
According to the churchs pastor, Tim
Shrimpton, the congregation is a member
of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran
Synod. The synods Board for Home
Missions bought the parcel of land on
which the church currently sits between
Ralston Avenue and Belmont Canyon after
a small group of people got together in the
early 1960s.
Hes only been at Gloria Dei Lutheran for
a little over a year, but Shrimpton said he
has been involved with many facets of the
church from worship on Sunday morning,
including a weekly sermon and two weekly
bible classes to hospital visits, personal
counseling and catechism instruction for
our children in middle school.
For the anniversary celebrations,
Shrimpton has invited former pastors to
speak at worship services and publicized
the occasion to communities they want to
connect with in the future.
Our area is notorious for high turnover
and that has plagued or blessed this congre-
gation, depending on how you look at it.
As soon as one family moves to the area,
another one is transferred out. So while we
tend to lose members perhaps more quickly
than other congregations in our church
body, we also seem to have contact with
more people. ... So, while many of our
members are very, very thankful for these
50 years that we are celebrating, many of
them were not here for most of that,
Shrimpton said.
While we are certainly celebrating the
past 50 years this year, our focus is also in
the coming 50 years and beyond. ... I
believe that the best days for Gloria Dei are
ahead of her. I cant wait to see what God
has in store!

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO State and
University of California officials
praised the nomination of
Homeland Security Secretary
Janet Napolitano to lead
Californias flagship university
system, though critics pointed
out that she has little experience
in the education field.
Napolitanos nomination
announced by university offi-
cials on Friday follows a
rocky stretch for one of the
nations most prestigious public
school systems that includes the
University of California,
Berkeley and UCLA. UC has
recently faced tighter budgets and
raucous protests over tuition,
which has nearly doubled in the
last five years.
In addition to
her tenure as
homeland secu-
rity secretary,
Napolitano was
governor of
Arizona and
U.S. Attorney
for the District
of Arizona. But
she has never
served as head
of an academic institution or sys-
tem.
She might have a lot of back-
ground in government, but there
is concern about the depth of her
knowledge and experience in
higher education, said Bob
Samuels, president of the
University Council-American
Federation of Teachers, a union
that represents about 4,000 non-
tenured UC faculty and librarians.
Chair of the selection commit-
tee Sherry Lansing acknowledged
Napolitano is an unconventional
choice, but said in a statement
Napolitano brings management
experience and leadership to the
role. Lansing declined to com-
ment more on how and why
Napolitano was chosen through a
UC spokeswoman.
Gov. Jerry Brown said her out-
siders mind would be a boon.
Secretary Napolitano has the
strength of character and an out-
siders mind that will well serve
the students and faculty. It will be
exciting to work with her,
Brown said.
Bruce Varner, chair of the uni-
versitys board of regents, said in
a statement that Napolitano has a
track record for taking on and
tackling the toughest chal-
lenges.

SAN FRANCISCO Opponents
of same-sex marriage demanded
Friday that the California Supreme
Court immediately halt the prac-
tice that recently resumed in the
nations largest state after a nine-
year legal battle.
The group that sponsored voter-
approved Proposition 8, which
banned same-sex marriages in
2008, launched a new, two-
pronged legal attack in what one
expert described as a last-ditch
argument with little chance of suc-
ceeding.
In its petition, ProtectMarriage
argued that state officials who
began issuing marriage licenses to
gay couples had incorrectly inter-
preted a June 24 U.S. Supreme
Court ruling.
The high court ruled that
ProtectMarriage had no standing
to challenge a previous ruling by
the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of
Appeals that struck down
Proposition 8.
On Friday, ProtectMarriage
argued in its petition that
Proposition 8 remains California
law because the U.S. Supreme
Court didnt rule directly on the
constitutionality of same-sex mar-
riages in what is widely called the
Perry case.
The Ninth Circuits decision in
Perry has been vacated, the peti-
tion stated, hence there is no
appellate decision holding that
Proposition 8 is unconstitution-
al.
Therefore, the petition conclud-
ed, the Proposition 8 ban on same-
sex marriages is still in force.

SAN FRANCISCO Agirl who was
aboard the Asiana Airlines ight that
crash-landed died Friday, the same day
that authorities conrmed one of the two
Chinese teenagers killed in the disaster
was hit by a retruck.
The disclosure about the teen raised
the tragic possibility that she could
have survived the crash only to die in its
chaotic aftermath.
No one knows yet whether the two
teens lived through the initial impact at
the San Francisco airport. But police
and re ofcials conrmed Friday that Ye
Meng Yuan, 16, was hit by a retruck
racing to extinguish the blazing Boeing
777.
Her close friend Wang Linjia, also 16,
was among a group of passengers who
did not get immediate medical help.
Rescuers did not spot her until 14 min-
utes after the crash.
The other girl died Friday morning.
San Francisco General Hospital said she
had been in critical condition since
arriving Saturday after the accident.
Ofcials did not identify the girl at the
request of her parents. Her age was also
withheld.
Meng Yuans body was found covered
in reghting foam near a seawall at the
edge of the runway, along with three
ight attendants who were ung onto
the tarmac while still buckled in their
seats. Meng Yuan was not in her seat.
The retruck did go over the victim at
least one time. Now the other question
is what was the cause of death? police
spokesman Albie Esparza said. Thats
what we are trying to determine right
now.
San Mateo County Coroner Robert
Foucrault said the results of his initial
inquiry into the deaths would likely be
released sometime next week. He would
not comment on the police investiga-
tion.
Moments after the July 6 crash, while
rescuers tried to help passengers near
the burning fuselage, Wang Linjia and
the ight attendants lay in the rubble
almost 2,000 feet away. Agroup of sur-
vivors called 911 and tried to help them.
Members of the group martial arts
athletes and their families returning
from a competition in South Korea
said that after escaping the plane, they
sat with at least four victims who
appeared to be seriously hurt.

Zimmerman jury adjourns
deliberations for the day
By Mike Schneider and Kyle Hightower
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SANFORD, Fla. With police and civic leaders urging
calm, a jury began deliberating George Zimmermans fate
Friday after hearing dueling portraits of
the neighborhood watch captain: a cop
wannabe who took the law into his own
hands or a well-meaning volunteer who
shot Trayvon Martin because he feared
for his life.
As the jury got the murder case, police
in this Orlando suburb went on national
television to plead for peace in Sanford
and across the country, no matter what
the verdict.
There is no party in this case who
wants to see any violence, Seminole County Sheriff Don
Eslinger said. We have an expectation upon this announce-
ment that our community will continue to act peacefully.
During closing arguments, Zimmermans lawyers put a
concrete slab and two life-size cardboard cutouts in front of
the jury box in one last attempt to convince the panel
Zimmerman shot the unarmed black 17-year-old in self-
defense while his head was being slammed against the pave-
ment.
Attorney Mark OMara used the slab to make the point
that it could serve as a weapon. He showed the cutouts of
Zimmerman and Martin to demonstrate that the teenager
was considerably taller. And he displayed a computer-ani-
mated depiction of the fight based on Zimmermans
account.
He said prosecutors hadnt met their burden of proving
Zimmermans guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Instead, he
said, the case was built on couldve beens and maybes.
If it hasnt been proven, its just not there, OMara
said. You cant ll in the gaps. You cant connect the dots.
Youre not allowed to.
In a rebuttal, prosecutor John Guy accused Zimmerman of
telling so many lies. He said Martins last emotion was
fear as Zimmerman followed him through the gated town-
house community on the rainy night of Feb. 26, 2012.

Texas Dems question
abortion restrictions
By Chris Tomlinson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
AUSTIN, Texas Democrats in the Texas Senate on
Friday questioned whether proposed abortion restrictions
are constitutional and whether they would make it more dif-
cult for women in the state to obtain health care.
Democrats grilled the Republican author of a bill that has
prompted fervent demonstrations and put Texas at the cen-
ter of the nations abortion debate. Following Fridays
debate, the Senate was scheduled to vote on the tough abor-
tion restrictions and could send the bill to Republican Gov.
Rick Perry, who has said he will sign it.
As senators debated, they could clearly hear hundreds of
protesters outside of the chamber in the Capitol rotunda
cheering, chanting and singing, Were not going to take it
anymore.
The circus-like atmosphere in the Texas Capitol marked
the culmination of weeks of protests, the most dramatic of
which came June 25 in the nal minutes of the last special
legislative session when a Democratic libuster and subse-
quent protest prevented the bill from becoming law.
Abortion-rights advocates dressed in orange Friday, some
carrying gynecological devices and signs, while anti-abor-
tion activists wore blue and held images of fetuses and
Bible verses.
House Bill 2 would require doctors to have admitting priv-
ileges at nearby hospitals, allow abortions only in surgical
centers, limit where and when women may take abortion-
inducing pills and ban abortions after 20 weeks. Only ve
out of 42 existing abortion clinics meet the requirements to
be a surgical center, and clinic owners say they cant afford
to upgrade or relocate.
BART police probe porn video shot on train
Bay Area Rapid Transit police are investigating an ama-
teur pornographic video apparently shot on a moving train.
Deputy Chief Ben Fairow said the cellphone video shows
a partially disrobed couple having intercourse on a seat at
the end of a BARTtrain car.
The video was apparently lmed by a third party, and the
man and woman in the video appear to know that someone
is lming them. Fairow says the video does not show
whether other riders are in the car.
The video quality is good enough that investigators are
hopeful that theyll be able to identify the couple.
Fairow says lewd conduct on BART is a misdemeanor and
can result in a system-wide banning.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CAIRO Tens of thousands of
Islamists rallied Friday in cities across
Egypt, vowing to sustain for months
their campaign to restore deposed
President Mohammed Morsi to power.
Ten days after the military coup that
toppled him, however, Morsis
Muslim Brotherhood and its allies
appear to have failed to bring a signif-
icantly wider segment of Egyptian
society into the streets on their side.
The new military-backed administra-
tion of interim President Mansour
Adly, along with the grand imam of Al-
Azhar, the most prominent Sunni
Muslim institution, oated offers for
national reconciliation. Newly
appointed Prime Minister Hazem el-
Beblawi is reportedly promising to
nish assembling his Cabinet by next
week, a government official told
Egypts state news agency. Apresiden-
tial spokesman has said the Muslim
Brotherhood will be offered posts.
The Brotherhood remains steadfast
in its opposition, saying its support-
ers will stay in the streets for as long
as it takes to force the reinstatement of
Morsi, who was overthrown July 3
after four days of massive protests
demanding his ouster.
At the main Islamist rally in Cairo,
the crowd poured into a large boulevard
in front of the Rabaah al-Adawiya
Mosque, where Morsi supporters have
been camped for two weeks.
Egyptian ags, which were fewer in
their previous rallies, outnumbered the
usual green Islamic banners embla-
zoned with the Muslim profession of
faith a move to show their move-
ments broader appeal. Chants and slo-
gans focused on the military, many
branding the army chief a traitor.
We are ready to stay for a month,
two months, a year, or even two
years, ultraconservative Sala cleric
Safwat Hegazi told protesters from a
stage.
The demonstrators there seem to
have dug in for a long sit-in. Tents
have been erected and toilets have
been set up with brick walls for priva-
cy. Protesters with helmets, home-
made body shields and sticks guarded
the site, which has drawn Morsi sup-
porters from other provinces.
Army troops are staying about a
kilometer (half-mile) away to avoid
direct confrontations. On Monday,
there were clashes with security forces
near the Republican Guard headquarters
not far from the site, with more than
50 people killed. Both sides blamed
the other for the bloodshed.
Fridays call for demonstrations had
sparked fears of further clashes but no
violence was reported.
Tens of thousands march for Morsi
Snowden says he wants asylum in Russia
MOSCOW Edward Snowden emerged from weeks of
hiding in a Moscow airport Friday, still deant but willing
to stop leaking secrets about U.S. sur-
veillance programs if Russia will give
him asylum until he can move on to
Latin America.
Snowdens meeting with Russian of-
cials and rights activists cleared up
uncertainty about where the former
National Security Agency systems ana-
lyst is, but left open the big question:
What comes next?
Snowden said he was ready to meet
President Vladimir Putins condition
that he stop leaking secrets if it means Russia would give
him shelter that could eventually help him get to Latin
America. There was no immediate response from Putins
ofce, but speakers of both houses of the Kremlin-con-
trolled parliament spoke in support of Snowdens plea.
Suicide bomber hits Iraqi cafe, killing 38
BAGHDAD Asuicide bomber detonated his explosives
in a crowded coffee shop late Friday in the northern Iraqi
city of Kirkuk, killing at least 38 and wounding more than
two dozen in the latest in a string of bloody attacks pound-
ing Iraq since the start of the holy month of Ramadan this
week.
Iraq is being rocked by its deadliest and most sustained
wave of bloodshed in half a decade. More than 2,600 people
have been killed since the start of April, raising fears that
the country is once again edging toward the brink of civil
war a decade after Saddam Hussein was toppled in the U.S.-
led invasion.

Hotels and the Asiana crash
Editor,
We were extremely disappointed so
see Michelle Durands July 9 column
Price-gouging jerks alluding to
hotel rates for displaced passengers
following the recent crash. Our hote-
liers hearts went out to all involved
and they went out of their way to help
those left stranded. As correctly
reported in the Chronicle, our hotels
did offer the passengers discounted
rates immediately following the
crash.
The misinformation began when a
reporter went online to check hotel
room prices after the crash. Because it
was the week of Semicon West in San
Francisco, online prices were high,
reecting the tremendous demand for
rooms from San Francisco into Santa
Clara County. The online prices dur-
ing Semicon week, however, had
nothing to do with the rates being
offered to distressed passengers.
What was not reported is how
hotels work with displaced passen-
gers. Either the airlines themselves
or a company called Airport
Accommodations contacts our hotels
by phone when passengers are dis-
placed, securing rooms at greatly
reduced rates. Hundreds of rooms were
offered at lower rates, with our hotels
foregoing sales of those rooms at a
much higher Semicon week rate.
John Thackray, senior vice presi-
dent at Airport Accommodations, has
publicly stated that there was no price
gouging by our hotels during the
aftermath of the crash, noting that
hotels went far beyond expectations
to help.
It is time for all to give our hotels
the credit they deserve for their
incredible compassion for the dis-
placed passengers and their ongoing
generosity to our communities and
nonprot organizations.

Moral standards
Editor,
Ms. Dorothy Dimitre devoted an
entire column to expressing her
righteous indignation over the dis-
graced Republican Mark Sanfords
efforts to get reelected to a public
office (An impossible dream? in
the May 15 edition of the Daily
Journal.
Nothing wrong about her outrage,
but now I am anxiously awaiting her
article about two Democrats who fol-
lowed in Stanfords footsteps seek-
ing re-election after having to
resign due to personal scandals:
Congressman Anthony Weiner and
New York governor Eliot Spitzer.
Certainly, Dimitri does not have
different moral standards for
Republicans and Democrats to pre-
vent her form treating all by the
same measure.

Letters to the editor
By Rick Drain
M
ost of the past 20
Independence Days I have
watched the Redwood City
reworks, usually from a boat kept at
Petes Harbor. Petes is the marina all
the way at the Bay-end of the road,
many twists and turns and name
changes after Whipple Avenue crosses
Highway 101.
Each of those Fourths of July, Ive
seen hundreds of cars pull into Petes
Harbor, lling then overlling the
parking lots, and carrying hundreds of
families arriving for a picnic with a
view of the reworks.
Even the two recent years that the
reworks were canceled because of
city budget trouble, many cars came
and then went away disappointed.
This year, the disappointment was
much deeper. Yes, there would be re-
works, but no, there is no more Petes
Harbor.
Instead, they found a sign stating
private parking only, fences,
barbed wire and armed guards at the
new gate. The public was not allowed
in, even though the parking lots were
empty and the picnic spots were wait-
ing. The guards turned all the general
public away.
I was there starting late afternoon
on the Fourth to hand out iers for a
group (Save Petes Harbor,
www.savepetesharbor.net) working to
keep a public access marina open on
the state-owned part of the marina
known as the Outer Harbor.
I spent most of
the afternoon help-
ing confused and
frustrated families
and groups of
friends nd alterna-
tive picnicking and
viewing spots. At
rst, I gave direc-
tions to the Port of
Redwood City, until one driver said
that was already full and closed off,
then I pointed out the very limited
public access parking nearby and the
new footbridge onto partially
reopened Bair Island with its walking
trail. When those few parking spots
lled up, and with evening coming,
cars started parking where ever they
could nd room. It grew chaotic.
By dusk, there were many dozens of
people out on the island. One woman
struggled with the bridge and dirt path
in her walker. Another family ago-
nized over having to leave their dis-
abled grandfather in the car, when
theyd hoped to park in the harbor
where there was a view.
In addition to giving directions, of
course, I was able to give out the
iers. The revelers were horried to
hear what is happening to Petes
Harbor, which they have loved visit-
ing for up to half a century.
Aprivate developer, Pauls Corp., is
in the process of purchasing the land
to build 411 units of luxury apart-
ments. Petes widow has applied for
permits to completely remove the
docks, pilings and other marina infra-
structure. Pauls Corp.s plan calls for
removing the uniquely nautical
Waterfront Cafe (formerly Harbor
House) restaurant and including only a
token amount of new public access
parking, and only a walking/bike
path along part of the waterfront
instead of the former ample publicly
accessible open space.
Save Petes Harbor accepts Petes
heirs right to sell the private land,
and Pauls Corps right to develop
within zoning limits. However, we
object strenuously to the loss of pub-
lic access to publicly-owned resources
that destroying the marina causes.
The development can go on the land,
but the marina must stay open on the
water. Amarina will require a little
more parking to be added to the plan,
but as Independence Day showed,
more public access parking will be
enormously appreciated by the wider
community who love so much to visit
this spot.
The public deserves the right to
access their waterfront, as they have
for so many years. We hope that a
sensible compromise will prevent
this from being the end of the road for
iconic Petes Harbor.

Petes Harbor at the end of the road
One Bay means
one size for all
By Chuck McDougald
I
love San Francisco with its hill and views, piers and
beaches, stunning architecture and world-class arts
scene. The city is destination, perennially ranking as
one of the top cities to visit in the United States. Who
wouldnt love the fog, creeping in on little cats feet, the
Golden Gate, Coit Tower and the Marina Green. Yes, San
Francisco is a great place to visit. And yes, I wouldnt want
to live there.
Thats why I live in San Mateo
County. I can visit the city all I want but,
at the end of the day, I can come back
home to South City. The same is true for
more than 700,000 people who live
from Pacica to Portola Valley, from San
Carlos to San Bruno, and across our great
county. We can choose our lifestyles,
from beaches to horse country, suburban
housing tracts to farms and ranches, and
everything in between.
We live here because we have a choice, and weve chosen
not to live in a densely packed, high-rise city. Now that
choice is in danger. Now unelected, appointed commissions
with great power are about to cram a one-size-ts-all 25-year
plan down our collective throats. The Draft Plan Bay Area
with its restrictions, its coercive funding and its view that all
of us, and especially minorities, want to live in small,
cramped and closely packed quarters is only days from
becoming a reality.
The Draft Plan Bay Area arose out of the awed Assembly
Bill 32 and Senate Bill 375, which mandated that super
regional planning agencies (and not local, accountable gov-
ernments) draw up plans to reduce greenhouse emissions in
their areas. In our area, thats the nine-county Association of
Bay Area Governments, the Metropolitan Transportation
Commission and others. These bureaucratic behemoths saw
their chance, and they took it.
The draft plan is their attempt to remake the populated
areas of the nine-county region into clones of downtown San
Francisco, Oakland and San Jose. Their chosen weapon of
coercion what, you dont want to live in some rabbit-war-
ren of a high-rise? is funding to repair your roads, your
bridges and your highways. The MTC website makes it clear;
transportation funding will reward jurisdictions that accept
housing allocations through the Regional Housing Need
Allocation (RHNA) process.
Note the use of accept. These housing allocations (the
number of high-density and low-income projects a city is
required to build) are ginned up by unelected bureaucrats,
using spurious assumptions about population growth and
then dropped on cities on a take-it-or-leave-it basis. They
must accept, or their roads will deteriorate and their bridges
will crumble. But how can this be, since many of you reading
this may not have even heard of ABAG, MTC, RHNAor the
myriad other acronyms spewing from the regional planning
powers? Its because in their haste, these agencies have failed
miserably (or perhaps intentionally) in their duties to inform
the public of what they intend to do to us.
To comply with the California Environmental Quality Act,
the Environmental Impact Report for the Draft Plan Bay Area
must inform members of the public about the range of envi-
ronmental impacts of the proposed plan. The environmental
impacts of taking zoning decisions out of the hands of local
ofcials and vesting them in distant, unknowable and practi-
cally unreachable regional satraps will have an enormous
impacts on our local environment. Yet, virtually nothing has
been communicated to the public about the potential nega-
tive impacts of the Draft Plan Bay Area, as required by law.
Thankfully, some in our nine-county region have begun to
realize that the one-size-ts-all model of extending San
Francisco, Oakland and downtown San Jose into surrounding
suburbs and rural areas is, at best, wrong-headed, and at
worst, a scheme to remake our towns and cities into a vision
of conformity and uniformity. We know its time to put a
stop to this. We know its time for citizens to take back con-
trol of their communities from the fringe elements that have
captured the regional planning process.
Join with us to halt this plan before it is cemented in place
July 18. Only two public meetings remain between now and
then, both in Oakland and both during the day. Although
clearly planned to eliminate serious citizen input, they are
your chance to make your voice heard. Visit onebayarea.org
for details.
When you stand up to speak, tell them as a San Mateo
County resident how much you love to visit San Francisco,
but that you wouldnt want to live there.

Big movers

It was another record day on Wall
Street barely.
After spending most of Friday at or
down, stocks rallied at the last minute
and closed slightly higher, just
enough to post new record highs for
the Dow Jones industrial average and
the Standard & Poors 500 index.
The gains were tiny. And the new
record doesnt mean much for
investors, who hardly have any more
money now than they did a day earlier.
But it is a sign that investors believe
the markets rally this year may not be
over yet.
The S&P 500 has closed higher
seven days in a row. The last time it did
that was in March.
Investors had to look past a pes-
simistic outlook from UPS, which said
it was seeing a slowdown in U.S.
industry. And in the afternoon, Boeing
shares tanked after one of its 787s
caught on re in London, reviving
fears of the troubles that plane had
with smoldering batteries earlier this
year.
Other economic news was mixed.
Prots at big banks Wells Fargo and JP
Morgan came in better than expected,
and that helped nancial stocks. But a
University of Michigan measure of
consumer sentiment came in lower
than expected for this month.
Investors will get a lot more infor-
mation next week, when key reports
on ination and retail sales are due.
Thats also when the pace of company
earnings reports picks up sharply.
Results are due from the remaining big
banks as well as General Electric,
Intel, Microsoft and other industry
bellwethers.
This is the jump ball, this is the
Lebron James of the market, said
David Darst, chief investment strate-
gist for Morgan Stanley Individual
Investor Group, referring to the sec-
ond-quarter earnings rush. Its going
to determine where the market goes.
The Dow closed up 3.38 points, just
0.02 percent, at 15,464.30. The
Standard & Poors 500 index rose 5.17
points, or 0.3 percent, to 1,680.19.
Both indexes also closed at all-time
highs on Thursday.
The Nasdaq composite edged up
21.78 points, or 0.6 percent, to
3,600.08. Its still well short of its
record high of 5,048, set in March
2000.
The Russell 2000, which is made up
of smaller companies, rose 3.35
points, or 0.3 percent, to close at
1,036.52.
All the big indexes are ahead for the
week.
Stocks spent most of Friday down,
but not down much. Analysts believe
investors are waiting for several major
earnings and economic reports next
week before deciding whether the rally
has further to run.
Anthony Conroy, managing director
and head trader for ConvergEx Group,
thinks its likely that stocks will
move higher, as long as second-quarter
earnings reports at least match the low
expectations that investors have. The
three most important things in the
next couple of weeks are earnings,
earnings, and earnings, he said.
Cost-cutting boosted prots at Wells
Fargo, and its stock rose 74 cents, or
1.8 percent, to $42.63. JPMorgan
Chase reported a 32 percent jump in
prots, but its stock fell 17 cents to
$54.97.
Conroy said JPMorgans credit num-
bers were strong. That means the con-
sumers out there spending and bor-
rowing and propping up the whole
economy, and thats a good thing, he
said.
United Parcel Service sank $5.33, or
5.8 percent, to $86.12 after saying its
second-quarter and full-year earnings
will be less than analysts have been
expecting because the companys cus-
tomers are using cheaper shipping
options. UPS also said its seeing a
slowdown in U.S. industry.
Stocks inch higher, setting new records
Boeing stock tumbles
after fire on 787 Dreamliner
LONDON A re aboard an empty 787 at Heathrow
Airport spooked Boeing investors Friday, as they feared
the re-emergence of battery problems that grounded the
plane for months earlier this year.
Boeing shares lost $5.01, or 4.7 percent, to $101.87.
At its peak, the selling knocked off $7.89 a share, or $6
billion of market value. The stock recovered slightly as
speculation about the cause of the re shifted away from
the batteries.
The cause of the re on the Ethiopian Airlines plane
which broke out more than 8 hours after it had landed in
London remained under investigation. The location of
the re led some experts to surmise it wasnt the planes
lithium-ion batteries.
Meanwhile, an unspecified mechanical issue caused
another 787 own by Thomson Airways to return to
Manchester Airport, adding to concerns about the plane.
Runways at Heathrow were shut down for nearly an hour
as emergency crews put out the re. No passengers were
on the plane.
The 787, which Boeing dubs the Dreamliner, was
grounded in January following two incidents with its
lithium-ion batteries. One 787 caught re shortly after it
landed at Bostons Logan International Airport on Jan. 7.
FDA sets new limits on arsenic in apple juice
WASHINGTON Parents who have been fretting over
the low levels of arsenic found in apple juice can feel bet-
ter about buying one of their kids favorite drinks.
The Food and Drug Administration is setting a new limit
on the level of arsenic allowed in apple juice, after more
than a year of public pressure from consumer groups wor-
ried about the contaminants effects on children.
Nationwide, apple juice is second only to orange juice in
popularity, according to industry groups.
Studies have shown that the juice contains very low
levels of arsenic, a cancer-causing agent found in every-
thing from water to soil to pesticides. The FDAhas mon-
itored arsenic in apple juice for decades and has long said
the levels are not dangerous to consumers, in particular
small children who favor fruit juice.
But now the agency is putting in place a strict standard
on how much arsenic is acceptable in apple juice, limit-
ing the amount to the same level currently permitted in
drinking water.
JPMorgans profit surges on investment banking
NEWYORK Asurge in investment banking pushed
up JPMorgans second-quarter prot even as results at its
consumer business sagged.
JPMorgan earned a bonanza in fees from underwriting
stock and bond offerings in the rst three months of the
year as nancial markets thrived. The gain offset a slight
decline at the banks consumer business, which struggled
with lower mortgage fees.

LOS ANGELES AT&T Inc. said
Friday that it has agreed to acquire Leap
Wireless International Inc., the pre-
paid cellphone carrier that operates
under the Cricket brand, for about
$1.19 billion in cash, or $15 a share.
The purchase gives the nations No.
2 cellphone carrier a leg-up in serving
customers who prefer not to have
lengthy contracts. Leaps Cricket
service has 5 million subscribers. The
deal also gives AT&T the right to use
Leaps unused airwaves also known
as spectrum to expand its network.
Spectrum is the lifeblood of the wire-
less industry and the ght to grab more
of it has spurred a recent wave of con-
solidation. In April, No. 4 T-Mobile
completed its acquisition of pre-paid
carrier MetroPCS. The company plans
to shut down the MetroPCS network in
two years, so it can use the airwaves to
improve coverage and data speeds. On
Wednesday, Japans SoftBank Corp.
completed its $21.6 billion takeover
of No. 3 Sprint Corp.
As part of its deal, AT&T plans to
keep the Cricket brand name, but pro-
vide Cricket customers with a broader
range of devices and give them access
to AT&Ts 4G LTE high speed wire-
less network. AT&T says it plans to
expand Crickets presence in the U.S.
As of March, AT&T had 7.1 million
pre-paid customers through its
GoPhone and Aio brands. AT&T has
107 million wireless customers in
total.
The pre-paid market for us is rela-
tively untapped, said AT&T
spokesman Brad Burns. From a com-
petition perspective, this creates a
much healthier competitor in the pre-
paid space.
AT&T will buy all of Leaps stock
and wireless properties, including
licenses, network and retail stores.
Leaps unused spectrum covers por-
tions of the country that include 41
million people.
Leap shares skyrocketed in after-
hours trading on the news, more than
doubling to $17.30, well past the offer
price. The stocks movement suggests
the market believes a higher bid will
emerge. AT&T shares slipped a penny
to $35.80.
Leap, based in San Diego, had $2.8
billion of debt.
The nations sixth-ranked carrier had
been struggling. In the quarter through
March, Leaps net loss expanded to
$110 million as it lost a net 93,000
wireless customers. Its revenue in the
same period declined 12 percent from a
year ago to $685 million.
Senior management looked at (the
acquisition by AT&T) as our best path
forward for the companys long-term
success, said Leap spokesman Greg
Lund.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. Hyundai
Motor Co.s factories have reached
their maximum capacity to build cars,
and thats costing the company sales
in a growing U.S. market, its American
CEO said Friday.
Hyundais U.S. sales are up only 1.9
percent for the rst half of the year,
less than a quarter of the overall mar-
kets 8.4 percent growth rate, accord-
ing to Autodata Corp. Industry ana-
lysts are predicting that sales will rise
as high as 15.5 million cars and trucks
this year, a million more than last
year, and there are predictions of near-
ly 16 million in 2014.
A Hyundai factory near
Montgomery, Ala., that makes the
Elantra compact and Sonata midsize
car, the companys two top-selling
vehicles, is at capacity, as is a plant in
West Point, Ga., run by sister compa-
ny Kia where Hyundais popular Santa
Fe crossover utility vehicle is made.
Other models are made at factories in
Korea, which also are at capacity. U.S.
CEO John Krafcik said both U.S.
plants are on the maximum three shifts
with workers on maximum overtime,
yet they still cant keep up with
demand.
We have tapped everything at this
point, he told reporters at an event at
its U.S. research center held to show
off a refreshed 2014 Equus luxury car.
Theres nothing left.
Yet Krafcik says Hyundai has decided
not to build another U.S. factory at
this point, instead taking at least a
two-year break to concentrate on qual-
ity and customer satisfaction.
I dont know that theres another
example in another industry, in our
industry, where a company that so
clearly had growth potential decided to
pass, to make sure that everything is
OK, and to build stronger operating
systems so that in ve or 10 years
there would be a stronger company at a
higher volume level, Krafcik said.

Lower expenses and fewer bad loans
helped lift Wells Fargos second-quar-
ter prot by 20 percent, the company
reported Friday.
The cost-cutting and improved loan
quality helped the nations biggest

ger revenue growth.
Net income rose to $5.27 billion
from $4.40 billion a year earlier,
excluding dividend payments on pre-
ferred stock. On a per-share basis,
earnings were 98 cents, beating the 93
cents forecast by Wall Street.
Revenue edged up to $21.4 billion
from $21.3 billion and exceeded Wall
Street expectations.
The companys stock rose 74 cents,
or 1.8 percent, to $42.63 in trading
Friday.

Giants take a second game from Padres
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN DIEGO All-Star Buster Posey
drove in a season-high ve runs and Chad
Gaudin and three reliev-
ers combined on a ve-
hitter, leading the San
Francisco Giants to a 10-
1 victory against the San
Diego Padres on Friday
night.
Poseys two-run dou-
ble highlighted San
Franciscos ve-run sev-
enth inning, when
Padres manager Bud Black was ejected for
arguing an obstruction call during a run-
down.
Marco Scutaro and Brandon Crawford had
three hits apiece while Gregor Blanco
scored four runs for the Giants, who won
consecutive games for the rst time since
they beat San Diego June 18-19 at San
Francisco. Coming in, the defending World
Series champions had lost 16 of 20.
The Padres lost for the 17th time in 20
games and dropped a season-high 12 games
under .500.
Black was ejected by second base umpire
Laz Diaz for arguing after Kensuke Tanaka
was awarded third base on an obstruction
call against third baseman Chase Headley.
Tanaka was on the ineld grass when he and
Headley collided.
The Giants led 5-1 going into the sev-
enth, when Brad Brach allowed ve runs on
ve hits and a walk. Because of the obstruc-
tion call, four of the ve runs were unearned.
Scutaro and pinch hitter Andres Torres had
RBI singles and another run scored on a wild
pitch.
Posey also had a sacrice y in the third
and a two-run single in the sixth.
Gaudin (3-1) improved to 3-0 with a 2.70
ERAin six starts since joining the rotation
on June 2. He allowed one run and three hits,
struck out ve and walked four in ve-plus
innings.
The Padres were trailing 5-1 when they
chased Gaudin by loading the bases on a
single and consecutive walks. But left-han-
der Jose Mijares came on and retired the side
on eight pitches.
Sean OSullivan (0-1) lost his debut with
his hometown Padres. He threw 102 pitches
in ve innings, allowing two runs and six
hits. He also doubled leading off the third.
OSullivan, who graduated from Valhalla
High in suburban El Cajon in 2005, signed
a minor league deal in December.

First place As beat down by Boston Sox
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OAKLAND, Dustin Pedroia hit a
tiebreaking, two-run single in the eighth
inning, and the Boston Red Sox beat the
Oakland Athletics 4-2 on Friday night in a
matchup between the ALs top teams.
John Lackey (7-6) overcame a season-
high four walks in seven innings to carry
the AL-leading Red Sox to their fourth
straight victory. He allowed two runs and
three hits while striking out ve. He also
hit a batter.
Brock Holt drove in two runs in the sec-
ond before the As rallied.
John Jaso hit an RBI single in the fth
and Jed Lowrie added a tying home run in the
seventh for Oakland, which remains two
games ahead of Texas in the AL West. Sean
Doolittle (3-3) allowed one hit and hit a bat-
ter before Ryan Cook gave up Pedroias two-
out single.
Andrew Bailey, a two-time All-Star closer
for the As from 2009-2011, tossed a score-
less eighth. Koji Uehara pitched a perfect
ninth for his eighth save this season.
Jarrod Parker overcame a sloppy start to
retire his nal 16 batters and put the As in
position to rally. He gave up two runs and
three hits in seven innings, striking out
three and walking none.
The only runs off Parker came because of
two errors and a hit batter in the second
inning that also took out plate umpire CB
Bucknor and caused a brief delay.
Third baseman Josh Donaldsons errant
throw to first allowed Mike Napoli to
advance to second. Then Parkers pitch
clocked at 92 mph grazed Daniel Nava
and hit the right side of Bucknors mask.
Bucknor went down on one knee and
winced in pain. Second base umpire and
crew chief Bill Miller replaced Bucknor
behind the plate and the game resumed with
three umpires.
Holts two-out single gave the Red Sox a
2-0 lead. He advanced to third on the play
when catcher Jaso threw the ball into right-
center eld trying to nab him at second, but
Parker never allowed another baserunner.
The As offense nally got going when
Seth Smith doubled off the wall in left lead-
ing off the fth for the rst hit against
Lackey. After Coco Crisp walked, Jasos
single sliced Bostons lead to 2-1.
Crisp advanced to third when right elder
Shane Victorino bobbled Jasos hit. But
second baseman Dustin Pedroia made a spec-
tacular diving stop on Donaldsons
grounder to start an inning-ending double
play.
Lowrie sent a 1-0 cutter from Lackey over
the wall in right for the tying shot in the
sixth inning.

Only the best of the best remain.
So if youre San Mateo National, Pacica
American, Belmont-Redwood Shores
Majors and Half Moon Bay Juniors, your
summer-baseball fun isnt quite over yet. In
fact, its safe to say, its just beginning.
After winning their respective District 52
Little League Baseball tournaments, this
quartet of teams heads over to the Section 3
championships this weekend on elds all
across the Bay Area.
District 52 has a pair of reigning Section
3 champions Half Moon Bay in the
Juniors and Pacica American in the 10/11
tournament. The team from Half Moon Bay
is the one of the pair returning to the
Juniors sectional to try and defend their
championship. Pacica, on the other hand,
has moved up in the age bracket and takes
their 9/10 championship from a summer
ago to the 10/11 tournament that will be
hosted by San Mateo National Little Leage
at Lakeshore Park.
Half Moon Bay takes its repeat efforts to
Bill Payne Park Field in Livermore.
It was one heck of a championship run for
Half Moon Bay last summer with the high-
light being the title game against Mission-
San Jose of District 14.
In that game, Half Moon Bay blitzed San
Jose with a nine-run fourth inning only to
see that lead shrink. Tommy Nuno sweated
out seven errors and somehow his team held
on to a 13-12 win.

NEWYORK They run with a little less
speed, hit with a little less power and worry
less about shattering nearby windows, but a
graying crew of stickball enthusiasts is
keeping the urban sport alive and honoring
the legends who shaped the game.
Six players from around the country were
being added Friday to the 144 people
already in the Stickball Hall of Fame,
selected by a committee of so-called old-
timers who have followed the sport since
its heyday in the 1940s and 50s.
Their grading scale is not exactly scien-
tic. The games lore is passed on in stories
and arguments about whether the Pleasant
Avenue Boys were better than the 100th
Street Boys and which pitcher was harder to
hit, which batter most feared at the plate.
We dont have statistics; we have brag-
ging rights, said Carlos Diaz, 64, a hospi-
tal administrator who held the rst induc-
tion ceremony a dozen years ago and now
runs the Stickball Community Gallery out
of an old storefront in East Harlem.
When we were playing, if you broke a
window, you ran or the cop would come and
take the stick away from you and put it down
the manhole covers, Diaz said.
The game is played on city streets in New
York Citys neighborhoods and took off
around the turn of the 20th century. Its a
form of baseball with a twist: Instead of
bats, hitters use broomsticks; instead of
baseballs, pink rubber balls; instead of
three strikes, each batter gets just one
swing to hit the ball off the bounce; and
instead of a baseball diamond, the eld is
determined by street lamps, manhole covers
and parked cars.
Teams were largely reflections of the

By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Millbrae Joe DiMaggio has yet
to eld its roster at full strength
this summer. Yet the Mavericks are
one win away from a trip to the
Northern California champi-
onship tournament.
Millbrae walked off with a dra-
matic 5-4 win over San Bruno in
last nights Peninsula League
playoff opener at San Bruno Park.
With the win, the Mavericks
advance to Sundays league cham-
pionship game against San
Carlos. First pitch at Daly Citys
Marchbank Park is scheduled for
11 a.m.
With cleanup hitter Joey Carney
out of the lineup due to a summer
jaunt to Hawaii, Millbrae had to
scrap for runs against its archri-
val. Entering into its nal at bat in
the bottom of the seventh,
Millbrae trailed 4-3.
With the season on the line,
Millbrae rallied for two runs,
while loading the bases without
getting the ball out of the ineld.
But a elders choice RBI off the
bat of Sereno Esponilla to score
Kyle Vallans tied it, before a sacri-
ce y from Sean McHugh drove
home Andrew Casella with the
winning run.
At the plate weve been usually
stacking up runs, so I thought we
were going to bang those guys a
little bit today, Millbrae co-man-
ager Robby Garrison said. We put
up two in the rst, and then the
bats just died for the rest of the
game. We didnt really have a
legitimate hit in that last inning.
Acouple bunts borderline hits,
an error, and a sac y. But Ill take
it. Its a win.
Despite walking off the mound
in the top of the seventh trailing
by a run, Millbrae starter Bryan
Hidalgo earned the complete-game
win to up his record to 2-0. Its
only the second start of the season
for Hidalgo, who was limited to
shortstop duties for most of the
summer following a heavy work-
load in the spring as a freshman at
Skyline College. He debuted last
week with a three-hit shutout
against River City at the Napa
Tournament.
After a shaky start in which
Hidalgo surrendered three runs in
the rst inning, the right-hander
regained dominant form, ultimate-
ly allowing four runs on seven
hits while striking out seven.
I was just trying to keep my
team in the game and just do what I
could to give us a chance in the
seventh inning, Hidalgo said.
Hidalgo labored through a 40-
pitch rst inning, as San Bruno
got on the board with one-out sin-
gles from Kyle Patterson and
Lucciano Molina, before cleanup
hitter Tim Gretter drove them both
home with a loud single to center.
Gretter advanced to third on a pair
of ineld errors, and scored on an
infield single by Christian
Bautista.
Millbrae answered back in the
bottom of the rst off San Bruno
ace left-hander Gretter. Michael
Svozil drew a one-out walk.
Esponilla followed with a tower-
ing y ball down the left-eld line
which was dropped for a two-base
error. Hidalgo made the error hurt
with a sharp single to center to
plate Svozil and Esponilla, cut-
ting San Brunos lead to 3-2.
In the third, Millbrae tied it with
an unearned run. Svozil reached on
an ineld error, advanced to second
on a passed ball, then after a walk
to Esponilla, advanced to third on
a groundout. With one out,
McHugh hit a chopper to third, but
with Svozil dead to rights at the
plate, an errant throw by Molina
allowed the tying run to score,
with Esponilla advancing to third.
Millbrae threatened to take the
lead on the next play, when
Michael McWhirter grounded out
to Molina. Molina checked the
runner at third before throwing out
McWhirter, but as soon as Molina
released the ball, Esponilla took
off for home. But a perfect throw
to the plate from rst baseman
Jake Steenvorde allowed Bautista
to block Esponilla off the plate,
allowing the San Bruno catcher to
tag out the would-be go-ahead run
with a secondary tag.
San Bruno retook the lead in the
top of the fth. Gretter drew a one-
out walk, then advanced to third
on an ineld error. Ryan Davis fol-
lowed with a sacrice y to center
to give San Bruno a 4-3 lead.
On the mound, Gretter took a no-
decision through ve innings of
work, giving way to Molina, who
took the loss despite striking out
four through 1 2/3 innings.
However, Gretter and Molina get-
ting gunned down on the base
paths in the top of the seventh is
what proved most costly for San
Bruno.
San Bruno set the table in the
seventh, with Molina reaching on
an infield throwing error and
Gretter singling to put runners at
rst and second. A bunt by Rory
McDaid resulted in Molina getting
forced out at third. Before another
pitch was thrown, Gretter got
picked off of second base.
Nonetheless, San Bruno manag-
er Edgar Hernandez commended the
effort of both his pitchers. Gretter
a redshirt freshman at College of
San Mateo in the spring has
rebounded nicely after hyperex-
tending his elbow during his sen-
ior football season at Capuchino.
As a junior, the southpaw earned
Peninsula Athletic League Ocean
Division Baseball Player of the
Year honors as a two-way player.
Molina experimented with two-
way duties as a freshman at
Skyline this year, before focusing
solely on becoming a middle-of-
the-order power threat.
Youre going to ride or die with
them, and unfortunately today it
didnt work in our favor,
Hernandez said. But I wouldnt
hesitate to give them the ball
again.
The winner of Sundays
Millbrae-San Carlos matchup
advances to the NorCal champi-
onship tournament in Yountville,
slated for July 18-24. Pacica has
already earned an automatic berth
to the tourney for the Peninsula
League, while Daly City notched
the automatic berth for the San
Francisco League.

NEWYORK Just for fun, lets turn back
the baseball clock a few months.
A well-rested Stephen Strasburg and the
Washington Nationals are destined to face
Josh Hamilton and the Los Angeles Angels
in the World Series. The Houston Astros
have the best record in baseball. Manny
Ramirez is playing in Taiwan. And no one is
quite sure how to pronounce the name of this
Puig guy.
Well, a few things are still the same:
Homer Bailey remains the last guy to throw
a no-hitter, Miguel Cabrera swings the most
devastating bat in the majors and, well, the
drug cloud isnt going away anytime soon.
As the All-Star game approaches next
week at Citi Field, a look at the rst half of
the season:

EXTRA! EXTRA!
By the time Matt Harvey and the New York
Mets let the hovering seagulls take over
AT&T Park well past midnight, they were
wiped out. This weeks win at San Francisco
took 16 innings the Mets already had
lost a 20-inning game and a pair of 15-
inning contests.
Ive never heard of anything like this.
Its unbelievable, manager Terry Collins
said. At least were used to it.
All over, fans are getting way more than
their moneys worth. Going into this week-
end, 19 games had lasted at least 14
innings; there were a total of 20 last year,
according to STATS.
Is a lunar eclipse coming? Oakland out-
elder Josh Reddick wondered. I have no
idea. Probably more of a coincidence than
anything. Thats how the game goes some-
times.

WACKYWEATHER
Even in ski country, this was a bit
extreme: When the Atlanta Braves and
Colorado Rockies started up at Coors Field
in late April, it was 23 degrees. That made it
the coldest game-time temperature in
STATS records, dating back more than two
decades.
Braves pitcher Mike Minor threw six
innings and won in short sleeves, no
less. He gured long sleeves wouldnt help
much. He also got a trainer to rub his arms,
back and thighs with a heating ointment.
I was burning up there, he said, smiling.
Snow at Target Field, hail at Yankee
Stadium and buckets of rain from coast to
coast. More than 30 games postponed so
far, going in the weekend. Last year? Just
21, the whole season.
The crummy conditions have wreaked
havoc with the schedule. With interleague
games most every day, theres not a lot of
wiggle room for makeups. So theres been a
push to get the games in Tampa Bay wait-
ed out almost ve hours of rain delays in
Cleveland to win a game that started on a
Friday night in May and nished on an early
Saturday in June. The Mets, meanwhile,
played in three different time zones in three
days.
In St. Louis, there was a 4 1/2-hour rain
delay in the ninth inning before Kansas
City outlasted the Cardinals. The game
ended at 3:14 a.m. at Busch Stadium, and
created travel trouble for the umpires, too
they worked at Wrigley Field in Chicago the
next afternoon.
We worry about that game when we get to
that one, crew chief Joe West said. We had
to worry about this game tonight.
And recently, a Giants-Reds rainout in
Cincinnati had the teams talking about mak-
ing it up at Coors Field, of all places. Aneu-
tral site in Denver might indeed be the most
convenient spot for both clubs later this
year.

NEWWAVE
Be it Manny Machado, Bryce Harper or
Mike Trout, the face of baseball is chang-
ing. Young stars are dominating, and also
revving up the debate: Should Dodgers sen-
sation Yasiel Puig thats Pweeg be
on the All-Star team?
MLB first half highlights are many
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OKLAHOMA CITY Jessica
Moore thought she pitched only
OK on Friday night against
Australia in the World Cup of
Softball. At least as OK as one can
be throwing a one-hit shutout.
The Oregon standout handcuffed
the Australians while her team-
mates produced one big inning
offensively, enough to lift the
United States to a 4-0 win.
The U.S. improved to 2-0 in the
eighth World Cup and 41-4 all-
time in the event heading into a
Saturday showdown with Japan,
which beat the U.S. in the gold-
medal game at last years world
championships.
Id like to see it when shes
great, U.S. coach Ken Eriksen
said. If she said she pitched OK,
Im going to sleep really, really
well tonight. I have no problems
with that. When you have a
defense like that and you saw
the leather being thrown around
really, really neat tonight and
with a drop-ball pitcher like Jess
Moore, youre going to see a lot of
ground balls.
Moore, an Oregon standout,
threw a perfect inning of relief in a
U.S. win over Canada on Thursday.
She looked equally sharp against
Australia (0-2), not allowing a
baserunner until the fourth or a hit
until Stacey McManus smacked a
changeup to left eld for a single
to lead off the fth.
U.S. beats
Australia 4-0

SAINT-AMAND-MONTROND,
France Wily Tour de France rid-
ers who used the wind and worked
together to trap their rivals turned
a trek across the ats of central
France into a thriller on Friday, as
exciting and, for the most unfortu-
nate, as decisive as any spectacu-
lar day in the mountains.
Yellow jersey holder Chris
Froome lost a chunk of his race
lead but not enough to gravely
endanger the Briton heading
toward what is shaping up to be an
intriguing nale in the Alps. The
team of Alberto Contador dealt the
former two-time champion back
into the game, putting him close
enough to Froome to make the last
week interesting. A rear-wheel
failure at the worst time dropped
Alejandro Valverde from second
place to nowhere. And Mark
Cavendish got a 25th stage win to
lift the British sprinter to a third-
place tie on the all-time list of
cyclings premier race.
All this on a Stage 13 that, on
paper, looked beforehand as
though it might be a dud. But the
riders are ensuring theres no such
thing as a dull day at the 100th
Tour. Much of the media buildup to
this rst Tour since the fall of
Lance Armstrong focused on
cyclings fight against doping.
But from Stage 1 in Corsica two
weeks ago, the sporting drama and
the Tours stunning visuals have
come to the fore.
Much of Fridays mischief was
cooked up by two teams Belkin
and Omega Pharma-QuickStep
that simply happened to share the
same hotel the night before. With
two-thirds of the stage left to race,
a time when the pack often prefers
to take things easy and let break-
away riders speed ahead for a
while, Omega powered as a group
to the front and rode like furies.
They soon got additional support
from Belkin. Their sudden acceler-
ation and sustained high speed
caught dozens of other riders off
guard. The pack split into three
groups. The breeze blowing across
the long, undulating straights
made it impossible for stragglers
to catch up. Among them was
Marcel Kittel, winner of three
stages at this Tour.
Omega rider Jerome Pineau hint-
ed it was no coincidence that his
team and Belkin worked together.
Look at the list of hotels and
look who we were with yesterday,
he said.
His teammate, Sylvain
Chavanel, added: You need some
friends in the peloton.
Belkin rider Sep Vanmarcke said
his Dutch team long ago identied
this stage as a chance to spring a
trap.
We had planned this. The team
leaders knew exactly where we
would go, he said. We knew
there would be a lot of side wind
there and that would be the best
place to go.
When Valverdes rear wheel
broke with more than 80 kilome-
ters (50 miles) to ride, the
Spaniard could only look on help-
less as the pack sped on without
him. With a new rear wheel, he and
his Movistar teammates tried but
failed to catch back up. He lost
nearly nine minutes to Froome.
Now out of podium contention
entirely, in 16th place, Valverde
suggested he might seek to exact
revenge on teams he named
Belkin and Europcar that didnt
slow up for him, saying: Maybe
we can make the race tougher for
those who didnt help me today
and made it so I couldnt catch up.
Froome signaled his disap-
proval of the way Valverde was
eliminated.
I just hope that no team would
do that to me if I had a mechanical
problem, said the Team Sky
leader.
On this very tactical 173-kilo-
meter (107-mile) stage from Tours
in the Loire valley, Contadors
Saxo-Tinkoff team then pulled the
same trick as Belkin and Omega.
They hit the gas about 30 kilome-
ters (20 miles) from the crowded
nish in the town of Saint-Amand-
Montrond, again splintering the
pack. This time, Froome was
among those left behind.
At 100th Tour, no such thing as a dull day

cycling race from Tours to Saint-Amand-Montrond
them in Game 1 of the title series,
Pacica roared back and took them
down in a 10-0, four-inning, mercy-
rule decision.
The core of that Pacifica team
returned and after falling in similar
fashion to Belmont-Redwood Shores
during the 10/11 tournament this sum-
mer, the boys in green and yellow
came back and beat BRS to pick up
their second straight District 52 title.
Pacifica wont have to travel far.
Theyll play their tournament at
Lakeshore Park. District 52 hasnt had
a 10/11 Section 3 champion since
2007 when Hillsborough took the
title.
Pacifica starts its trek against
District 45 champion San Lorenzo
American a team that dominated in
its run to the title. San Lorenzo did not
allow a run, winning all their games by
at least 10 runs.
Danville who went unbeaten in
its District 57 run, scoring an average
of 11 runs a game and Mission San
Jose the District 14 champion
join Pacica and San Lorenzo in San
Mateo.
Taking the 9/10 mantle from Pacica
is the team from San Mateo National
a squad that looks to continue the
citys excellent Little League postsea-
son run. National completed its
District 52 run by taking down a scrap-
py Foster City team in seven innings.
San Mateo went unbeaten in its run,
taking down Belmont-Redwood
Shores, Half Moon Bay, Pacifica
National and Hillsborough to capture
the 52 championship.
Waiting for San Mateo at Hall
Ranch-Veterans Park Field in Union
City are teams from Centerville and
Danville.
History seems to be on San Mateo
Nationals side District 52 has cap-
tured the Section 3 championship in
six of the last 12 years, most recently
last year with Pacica American and
Belmont-Redwood Shores the year
before.
Arguably, the tournament to watch
will take place in San Lorenzo. The
District 52 representative there is the
thrice-champion boys from Belmont-
Redwood Shores. District 52 hasnt
had a 11/12 Majors champion in
Section 3 since 2006 when Palo Alto
National won. Locally, the history is
worse San Mateo county is without
a winner since 1994 when Alpine/West
Menlo took the title. Before then,
there was a 20-year gap 1974 with
San Mateo National.
Belmont-Redwood Shores might just
have the lineup and repower to end
the dry spell. They proved it in tearing
through the District 52 tournament to
the tune of 14 runs a game. They also
have the likes of Sean Lee and Nick
Lopez on the mound as a great righty-
lefty combination.
But for starters, Belmont-Redwood
Shores gets San Ramon Little League
a team that was just as dominant
over in District 57. They took down
Tassajera Valley 7-2 in the champi-
onship game. Before then, they tore
through four opponents by a combined
score of 55-6.
The team from District 14
Mission San Jose also went unde-
feated in its tournament run.
Sequoia High School in Redwood
City will be the backdrop for the
Section 3 Seniors tourney.
All tournament games start Saturday.

neighborhoods where they played: Italian players from
Queens, black players from Harlem, Spanish players from
East Harlem. Professional baseball players such as Rusty
Torres and former New York Yankees manager Joe Torre
played growing up in Brooklyn.
The game was more than a diversion, said Alfred
Jackson, who was still shagging y balls barehanded at
age 78. He proudly identied himself as from 112th and
Lexington, recalling a time when every block had a team.
Every Sunday youd see the kids out playing stickball
in the street, and the cops chasing us, he said. We played
for money. Its how we got money to pay for whatever we
needed food, clothes, rent. And not every Sunday was a
winning Sunday.
George Lolin Osorio, a Hall of Famer from Puerto Rico
who moved to Manhattan in 1945, told of watching the
older guys play when he was a kid. They would play for big
money, and give the kids a quarter to run up on the roof and
fetch the balls.
But the game has lost popularity with time, said Diaz.
Players moved away, rst to ght in wars overseas and later
as the ravages of drugs and crime stripped city neighbor-
hoods of their safety, their populations and their sense of
community. Asmall group of followers including George
Vega, who was being inducted Friday, kept the game alive
by playing in the late 1970s, 80s and 90s.
Im getting inducted because of the way I used to play,
not the way I play now, said Vega, now 58, who grew up
playing stickball on 104th Street in East Harlem but now
resides in Bayonne, N.J. The cataracts are getting in
there. Im a little slower, but I still run and I still hit.
Diaz estimates there are probably around 2,000 active
competitive stickball players, playing in leagues in the
Bronx and Manhattan; Miami; Tampa, Fla.; San Diego;
Puerto Rico; the Dominican Republic and Panama.
At a game prior to Fridays induction ceremony, a dozen
old-timers gathered in a weed-choked, concrete schoolyard
in Spanish Harlem.

LAS VEGAS Poker faces cracked
into grins Friday as the eld at the
World Series of Poker main event nar-
rowed to those who will take home a
minimum of $19,000.
After a tense day of play, just 648
gamblers -the top 10 percent who get a
payout - were left. Cheers went up and
men in sweatpants jumped on their
chairs as the final player was sent
home empty-handed.
That unlucky gambler was Farzad
Bonyadi, an Iranian pro who has
played in the world series for more
than 20 years, winning three
bracelets.
Its so disappointing, he said,
adding that he never would have
entered had he known he would be
knocked out so close to the money. It
takes it out of you.
Bonyadi was having a great run when
he decided instead to go all in. Cameras
zoomed in on his face as his ace and
jack lost to an ace and queen.
Tournament officials awarded a
stunned Bonyadi free entry into next
years $10,000 buy-in, no-limit Texas
Hold em main event.
His loss ended an unusually hushed
afternoon at the Super Bowl of gam-
bling.
Servers walked among tables offer-
ing Red Bull to preoccupied players
who watched countdown clocks on the
walls.
Gamblers with shorter stacks of
chips played cautiously and took full
minutes to think about their cards
while others at the table stared hard and
clacked their chips against each other.
Amonitor chastised Josh Prager, of
northern California, for hassling a
slow player. Prager wanted to get in as
many pre-money hands as possible.
Theyre being careful now. It does-
nt last that long, and then everyone
will start ghting again, he said, tall
stacks of blue and orange chips
arranged in a semi-circle around him.
As the countdown approached the
magic number, players put on their
sunglasses and threw up the hoods of
their sweatshirts.
Brian Kellogg , of Ohio, was literal-
ly chewing his ngernails when ESPN
cameras circled his table. He had
among the smallest stack of chips in
the room, which was two eliminations
away from the money.
Kellogg went all in, and was dealt a
king and a jack. Everyone at the table
folded save the player to his right, who
got a queen and a jack.

During my 30 years in this business, I think I've seen it all when the UN-thinkable happens. A
recent listing of mine, a gorgeous 2 story home, just 11 years old, had been on the market for just
over 3 weeks. An offer comes in and is accepted by the sellers. The buyers, now excited about
being the eventual new owners, come over right away to the home just after the offer is accepted.
Then the UNthinkable happened. UNfortuntely, for the 30 minutes that the buyers were at the
home, a group of scraggly looking
people gathered across the street,
perhaps meeting to go to a concert, or
who knows, but they were acting in a
way that gave this buyer a real
negative reaction to this scene.
This is the first time that any group
like this had ever gathered across the
street that the sellers and neighbors
and could ever recall. The buyers
agent thought this might be an
episode of Candid Camera or a good
practical joke. It wasn't . . . Regard-
less, the buyers couldn't UNsee what
they saw and decided that within 2
hours of being the buyers, to
UN-raveled. Now I think I've seen it
all... UN-til the next time!

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BEIRUT Al-Qaida-linked gunmen killed
a rebel commander in Syria aligned with the
Western-backed militias fighting against
Bashar Assads regime, the highest-prole
casualty of growing tensions between mod-
erate and jihadi ghters among rebel forces.
Observers worried Friday that the comman-
ders death will increase distrust and suspi-
cion between forces already at odds over ter-
ritory and leadership as the nearly three-year
civil war continues in Syria.
Loay AlMikdad, a spokesman for the Free
Syrian Army, said Friday that members of the
Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant a
group reportedly made up of al-Qaidas
branches in Iraq and Syria were behind the
killing of Kamal Hamami. Hamami, known
as Abu Basir, served in the Supreme Military
Council of the Free Syrian Army, a group
headed by a secular-minded moderate that has
the support of Western powers.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for
Human Rights said gunmen shot Hamami
dead late Thursday after militants tried to
remove a checkpoint he set up in the Jabal
al-Turkoman mountain in the coastal
province of Latakia. The observatory said
two of his men were seriously wounded in the
shooting.
AlMikdad told Al-Arabiya TVthat Hamami
was assassinated at the hands of the forces
of evil and crime at one of the checkpoints.
He added that the group that killed Hamami
should hand over those who carried out this
act to stand trial.
Activists monitoring the war previously
reported occasional clashes between rebel
groups and Islamic militants active in rebel-
held areas, especially in the north where the
opposition has control of a large part of the
region. There also has been infighting
between Kurdish and Arab groups over con-
trol of territory captured from government
along the border with Turkey in the past year.
That fighting subsided after a cease-fire
agreement early this year.
Hamamis killing marks the rst time a
commander from the Supreme Military
Council of the Free Syrian Army has been
killed by rebel jihadists. His death under-
lines a deepening power struggle between
moderate and extremist groups ghting in
the Syrian civil war.
Al-Qaida-linked gunmen kill Syrian rebel commander
martial arts he wanted to pursue.
I saw the lm with my roommates and lit-
erally the next day we were all in the gym
doing Muay Thai, Roberts said, laughing
as he realized he was the only one who stuck
with the sport.
According to Roberts, Muay Thai is a type
of martial arts from Thailand that incorpo-
rates kicks, punches, knees and elbow
attacks in a ring with gloves similar to
those used in boxing. It requires good phys-
ical preparation through mental and physi-
cal discipline, which Roberts has spent
years mastering.
He rst got his training under the tutelage
of Cedric Schwyzer and Jason Pietz at
StandAlone Mixed Martial Arts Academy in
Chico. It wasnt all fun and games at rst.
I remember the rst few times I was puk-
ing and questioning whether I wanted to
keep doing this, Roberts said. AMuay Thai
stance requires the left foot forward as a
shield leg and the right leg back to have
protection from leg kicks. Unfortunately
for Roberts, a natural right foot, adjusting
to the workout was the hardest thing. But he
kept going every single day, he said,
because he had the right amount of dedica-
tion to commit.
The body takes an enormous amount of
unwarranted punishment. Roberts has a bad
habit of not arranging his kicks, which
causes his toes and knees to crack all the
time.
Im always icing myself down by taking
ice baths, Roberts said with a grimace on
his face.
Thailand training
He decided that he needed to change his
training to take the next step in the art of
Muay Thai, so he investigated all the
forums and websites trying to decide where
he wanted to train. He chose Sinbi Muay
Thai Training Camp in Phuket, Thailand. To
make his dream a reality, Roberts sold his
Pontiac Firebird.
It was well worth it, because I had the
best time of my life, Roberts said.
In the summer of 2012 Roberts embarked
on a trip to Thailand. He was there for two
months training. His training session con-
sisted of six two-a-days a week. The rst
session started at 7 a.m.
I got up at 6 a.m. and ran for six miles
before I started my session, Roberts said.
The rst session consisted of ve rounds
of hitting the punching bags, shadowbox-
ing with heavy pads and ve rounds of spar-
ring.
I then eat and sleep until 3 p.m., because
it starts all over again, Roberts said.
The second session was structured the
same with the exception of clinch sparring.
According to Roberts, clinch sparring is
when a ghter grabs the opponent around
the head and pulls them in with their knees.
Each ghter takes turns clinching.
Roberts noted that there isnt enough
focus on clinch sparring in the states like in
Thailand. In Thailand, there is a full half
hour dedicated to clinch sparring, but
Roberts feels it is the most excruciating
exercise.
First fight
After two months of training, Roberts
nally got his rst Muay Thai ght. His
opponent had already 60 ghts under his
belt, but Roberts was ready to face his chal-
lenger head-on. Roberts was eager to ght ,
and the days leading up to the ght were
nerve-racking.
The night before, I could barely sleep
constantly playing this fight in my head,
Roberts said.
The fight went well for the first-timer, as
he wasnt knocked out.
I tried to knock the guy out by hitting
him so hard that it felt like his skull
bounced off my glove, but he still stood
up, Roberts said.
When he was not training at Sinbi,
Roberts was enjoying the beauty of
Thailand and its people.
What stood out about Thailand was just
how nice everyone is, Roberts said.
Everyone he met was generous and eager
to help him out, he said, and he enjoyed
the cuisine.
It was easy for him to make friends with
the other fighters at the training camp
since they were all there for the same rea-
son: Muay Thai. He hopes to return soon
for a six-month session.
Instructing
When he returned to the states,
StandAlone offered him a Muay Thai
instructor position.
I came back a different fighter with dif-
ferent training methods, Roberts said,
adding those werent previously offered at
StandAlone.
He teaches about 20 people six days a
week and finds the experience rewarding.
When he notices students use techniques
he just taught, it enhances the experience
for him.
All the trainers took me under their
wing and now I can help people on their
path to learn Muay Thai, Robert said. I
want to keep teaching and competing as
long as I can.

A
little more than two years ago, I
was looking for something produc-
tive to do with my summer.
Despite my desire to
spend each day having
Netix marathons with
friends and learning to
drive, I knew that those
activities would not be
enough to hold my
attention during two
months of free time.
Feeling too old for
camp, I looked through my schools list of
possible internships for students and took
notice of the countless now hiring signs
in yogurt shop windows. The internships
that my school provided, however, didnt
suit my interests and the yogurt-serving
positions were similarly unappealing at the
time.
Im not quite sure how I decided to con-
tact the Daily Journal about available posi-
tions, but it was a strong interest in writ-
ing and a general fondness for reading
newspapers that led me to apply. My high
school didnt (and still doesnt, for that
matter) have a school newspaper, so when I
was asked to supply writing samples, I sent
in analytical English essays that were
undoubtedly dull to read, as well as an arti-
cle on the San Francisco Giants that Id
written for my schools literary magazine.
The interview portion of the application
came next and I sat, nervous and intimidat-
ed, across a table from Jon Mays as he
asked for my opinion on current events and
to explain my interest in writing. Needless
to say, I was no less than shocked when I
received a call offering me an internship.
On my rst day interning at the Daily
Journal, the nerves from my interview had
not yet subsided. I had very little idea about
how a newspaper operated nor did I know

Theres nothing quite like young love,
especially as depicted by William
Shakespeare in Romeo and Juliet.
Focusing on that aspect of the play for
California Shakespeare Theater, director
Shana Cooper streamlines her production,
starting with the title, condensing it to
Romeo & Juliet.
She then reduces the cast to seven actors,
all of whom, except for the two leads, play
multiple characters. Some characters are
eliminated, and others are combined.
Finally, she pares the text to mostly good
effect, speeding the action while holding
the audience rapt.
The familiar story takes place in Verona,
Italy, where the Capulet and Montague fam-
ilies have been feuding for generations.
Street brawls are common.
Hence when young Romeo (Dan Clegg), a
Montague, and not-quite-14 Juliet (Rebekah
Brockman), a Capulet, fall in love at rst
sight, theres not much hope for their
romance. Nevertheless, they marry immedi-
ately, but Romeo is banished because he has
killed one of Juliets relatives.
They have one night of bliss before
Romeo must leave. When plans for them to
reunite go awry, their next meeting leads to
tragic death for both.
Both Clegg and Brockman embody the
youthful impetuousness of their characters.

how to properly abide by the style rules of
the Associated Press. However, despite my
initial anxiety, it mustve only taken half
an hour in the ofce until the Daily Journal
staff had, to my surprise and delight,
launched into a round of trivia. As I started
to regularly come into the ofce, I quickly
learned that trivia was commonplace and
that the members of the newsroom some-
times interacted more like family than like
coworkers, especially in the way they con-
stantly teased and joked with one another.
Throughout my rst weeks, I learned tidbits
about each of the writers as I overheard
their conversations. One writer would often
sing along to music he played at his desk
(which ranged from Madonna to the
Rolling Stones) and another writer began
to stop by my desk, greeting me with st
bumps. As the weeks went by, I was always
asked to weigh in on conversations, which
was often centered around a hilarious debate
over food preferences or a joking round of
suggestions for column topics. Eventually,
I was shown a shelf of odd objects that
contained content accumulated over the
years and got used to each staff members
routines, whether that was trying to throw
bouncy balls into trash cans or relaying
strange encounters theyd had at the most
recent City Council meeting. As I grew
fond of the newsroom antics, I became
increasingly impressed that the Daily
Journal staff could put out a newspaper
every day while still managing to take time
to laugh.
As I get ready to leave for college, its
struck me that the end of these columns and
the end of my time at the San Mateo Daily
Journal is the rst goodbye of many, and a
much more meaningful one than Id antici-
pated when I began there two years ago.
Im lucky enough to only be moving a
BARTride away, but theres no doubt that
Ill miss coming into the newsroom to a
group of people who made me feel incredi-
bly welcome, despite my being, for the
most part, about 15 years their junior. As I
leave the Daily Journal and soon my home-
town, Id like to thank the Daily Journal
staff for some of my favorite afternoons in
high school, my parents and friends for
their help brainstorming column topics
and anyone who ever ipped to Student
News in the weekend edition to take the
time to read my thoughts on school, the
Bay Area and growing up for the past two
years.

Brockman is outstanding as her Juliet expe-
riences a torrent of emotions.
Also representing the younger generation
are Nick Gabriel as Tybalt and Paris, Joseph
J. Parks as Mercutio and Arwen Anderson as
Benvolio. Donning glasses, Anderson also
plays Lady Capulet, Juliets mother.
Representing the older generation are Dan
Hiatt and Domenique Lozano. Hiatt plays
the kindly Friar Laurence as well as Capulet
servant Peter and Lord Capulet, Juliets
father. Lozano plays Juliets caring nurse
and Escalus, prince of Verona.
Romeos parents, Lord and Lady
Montague, are relatively minor characters
and do not appear in this version.
Therefore, a short but crucial scene at the
end is eliminated. In that scene, Lord
Capulet and Lord Montague discover
Romeos and Juliets bodies and nally rec-
oncile. They see how much their enmity has
cost them.
Design elements enhance the production,
starting with Daniel Ostlings spare set,
which is open to the scenic vista behind the
stage. Christine Crooks modern costumes
require only minor changes as the actors
switch characters. The sound and mood-set-
ting music are by Paul James Prendergast.
Lap Chi Chus lighting is impressive. On
opening night, for example, lights sur-
rounding the stage and beaming upward dur-
ing the tomb scene bounced off low clouds
to create a brightly glowing circle over-
head.
Dave Maier deserves credit for his ingen-
ious, scary ght choreography.
For people seeing the play for the rst
time, this production is crisp, easy to fol-
low, yet full of drama. Those who have seen
the play many times will nd much to enjoy
and even discover because of director
Coopers insights and creativity as well as a
rst-rate cast.
Romeo & Juliet will continue in Bruns
Memorial Amphitheater, 100 California

that piles small daily gestures and one
nal, heartbreakingly tragic one into an
inspiring reminder about basic human
decency.
That may sound trite, but Fruitvale
Station already a hit on the festival cir-
cuit resonates not just for its portrait of
injustice, but because its argument for treat-
ing strangers kindly, decently, comes at a
time when fear and presumption often
trump simple kindness, and the public
sphere is navigated in cellphone bubbles.
In a star-making performance, Michael
B. Jordan plays Oscar, the San Francisco
Bay Area ex-convict and former drug dealer
who, famously, was fatally shot by a transit
police ofcer early on New Years morning,
2009. The moment is glimpsed in raw cell-
phone footage at the start of Fruitvale
Station, before shifting back to the morn-
ing before and the start of Oscars last full
day.
On its surface, its a regular day of
errands. But all of the stops reflect Oscars
struggle to balance his past, his unem-
ployment and his family: girlfriend
Sophina (Melonie Diaz), 4-year-old daugh-
ter Tatiana (Ariana Neal) and mother Wanda
(Octavia Spencer, also a producer of the
film).
Hes hotheaded and imperfect, but he lis-
tens to his mom, helps strangers (like a
supermarket shopper in need played by
Ahna OReilly) and, in the surest sign that
a dose of martyrdom has crept into the por-
trayal, tends to a dying dog. Its a day, pre-
sumably like any other, of fraught improv-
isation for Oscar, a young black man trying
his best in circumstances stacked against
him.
Jordan, the talented young actor of The
Wire, Friday Night Lights and
Chronicle whos in nearly every scene
of the movie puts the lm on his shoul-
ders in an unqualied display of leading-
man charisma. Its a naturalistic, hoodie-
clad performance, with bruh warmly pep-
pered throughout his speech. His proud
posture is belied by friendly, intelligent
eyes and an awe-shucks smile.
Coogler intimately captures Jordans per-
formance with uid camera movement while
illustrating Oscars constant text messag-
ing on the screen. The Oakland-natives
passion for the story is evident as he trans-
fers with sure-handedness from the sunny,
day-in-a-life meandering to the frenzied
action of the devastating nighttime nale.
Though Coogler verges on ham-stedness,
hes crafted a lm not just heavy with racial
truths, but one whose humanism reverber-
ates.
For a movie about an unjust death,
Fruitvale Station is bursting with the col-
orful, messy striving of life. The fullness
of Jordans Oscar is as staggering as his end
is appalling.
Fruitvale Station, a Weinstein Co.
release, is rated R by the Motion Picture
Association of America for some vio-
lence, language throughout and some drug
use. Running time: 90 minutes. Three and
a half stars out of four.

release. The lm is about Hayward resident
Grant, 22, who was fatally shot on
Oaklands Fruitvale BART station platform
on New Years Day 2009 by former BART
police Ofcer Johannes Mehserle.
Screenings began Friday at the California
Theatre in Berkeley, the Grand Lake Theater
in Oakland and San Franciscos AMC
Metreon 16.
The movie, written and directed by Bay
Area native Ryan Coogler, focuses on the
day before the shooting and does not delve
into the police response, murder trial and
Bay Area protests that followed the death of
Grant, who was unarmed.
Mehserle was convicted of involuntary
manslaughter in 2010 and was sentenced to
two years in prison with credit for time
served. He was released the following year.
During the trial, Mehserle testied that he
meant to use his Taser but accidentally red
his service weapon instead.
The opening night premiere was held at
the Grand Lake Theater last month with the
movies leading actors, producers, director
and the Grant family attending.
Michael B. Jordan portrays Grant, while
Olivia Spencer plays Grants mother,
Wanda. Forest Whitaker produced the lm.
The Oscar Grant Foundation, an organiza-
tion founded by Grants uncle Cephus
Johnson, has been keeping supporters
updated on the lm and tracking its recep-
tion as it is released at more venues.
Fruitvale Station, which was lmed in
Oakland and other parts of the Bay Area,
earned top marks at this years Sundance
Film Festival and was acquired afterward by

center where he worked as a student. He
runs into a former classmate, who high-
ves and congratulates him, then asks
for a photo. Coogler sheepishly oblig-
es.
This is inspiring, right here! the
younger man says as he snaps an iPhone
shot of himself and Coogler. Thank
you, bro!
Coogler gives the student his email address, then looks
for his old boss, the equipment manager, who tells the 27-
year-old lmmaker that hes set a new standard for success at
USCs lm school, which counts Ron Howard and George
Lucas as alumni.
Theres no doubt he has. Cooglers Fruitvale Station
his rst dramatic feature and rst project since graduating
with a masters degree in 2011 won both jury and audi-
ence awards at the Sundance Film Festival, where the
Weinstein Co. outbid a dozen studios to distribute it.
Originally called simply Fruitvale, the lm opens Friday
in New York and Los Angeles, and around the nation later
this month. Oscar buzz has already begun.
But nothing like that was on Cooglers mind when he
decided to make the lm. Anative of Oakland, Calif., he was
home for Christmas break during his rst year at lm
school when 22-year-old Oscar Grant was shot by transit
police in the citys Fruitvale station on New Years Eve,
2009. Scores of witnesses lmed the fatal shooting of the
unarmed black man by white ofcer Johannes Mehserle on
their cellphones, and riots and protests exploded in
Oakland and around the country. (Mehserle was eventually
convicted of involuntary manslaughter and sentenced to
two years behind bars.)
Coogler was also 22 then, looked like Grant and came
from the same neighborhood. It could have been him that
night, he thought.
I wanted to do something that could potentially have a
proactive effect, that could maybe trigger a thought process
or a discussion that could possibly prevent things like this
from happening in the future, he said. And I thought a lm
could be effective in proving this persons humanity.
Coogler has the athletic build of the football star he was,
and a gregarious personality that leads him to greet several
students he passes on campus. But theres something deep-
er: Aprofound desire to tell stories that arent often heard,
stories of people like him, like Oscar Grant. Its a passion
that inspired him to abandon dreams of medical school to
pursue lmmaking.
Its that drive, along with Cooglers talent, that caught
the eye of USC professor Jed Dannenbaum, who contacted
producer Nina Yang Bongiovi, telling her theres someone
she had to meet.
Hes truly brilliant, Bongiovi remembers the professor
saying.
She met with Coogler, and he gave her some short lms
hed made at school. She watched them immediately and
told collaborator Forest Whitaker, whod been seeking a
young artist to mentor, that they just had to work with him.

you said here today.
Novak told Parineh he has no one to
blame for his circumstances but him-
self.
Your arrogance is exceeded only by
your greed which is exceeded only by
your cowardice, Novak said.
Parineh, who testied in his own
defense, steadfastly maintained his
innocence in his wife Parima Parinehs
April 13, 2010 shooting. Defense
attorney Dek Ketchum told jurors
Parima Parineh, 56, killed herself
because she was bipolar, depressed and
making a last-ditch effort to stave off
the collapse of the familys fortune
while her life insurance policies were
still valid. Ketchum also introduced
evidence that she had overdosed on
pills just six weeks before her death.
Prosecutor Jeff Finigan built a case
focused on the Parineh familys nan-
cial collapse, from real estate empire
to ve properties in foreclosure
including the Fox Hill Road mansion
where the crime happened a com-
mercial building that had been taken
over for lack of payment and a legal
judgment. The life insurance policies
on Parima Parineh wiped out the debt,
put an extra $600,000 in his pocket
and deposited the rest in his three
grown childrens trust from which he
immediately tried to borrow, Finigan
said.
Finigan also informed jurors about
Parinehs remaining close friendship
with a former mistress and question-
able behavior after his wifes death
like avoiding the memorial service,
staying in a hotel with the former para-
mour and hounding his children about
the money. Jurors also learned that the
March 2010 suicide attempt was possi-
bly a pact with her husband in which
he didnt hold up his end of the bar-
gain, Finigan said.
But the drama of the case came to a
head when the prosecution wanting
to dismiss the defense theories about
bullet trajectories and how the victim
could have shot the gun four times
including twice in her own head
reconstructed the actual bedroom set in
the middle of the courtroom. Coupled
with graphic photos of Parima
Parinehs body, Finigan contended the
blood splatter, bullet casings and odd-
ities such as Parima Parinehs tooth
lying underneath her arm and a clean
white pillow atop a blood smear
showed her body was moved after death
to more closely resemble a self-inict-
ed wound.
The defense experts, however, con-
structed a shooting in which Parima
Parineh held her husbands .380-cal-
iber gun in front of her head with both
hands and red.
Finigan said after the verdict that
jurors told him the totality of the evi-
dence swayed them rather than one or
two specic factors.
On Friday, Ketchum asked Novak to
delay Parinehs transfer to prison
because he has a very serious medical
issue that requires a doctor visit rst
but Novak denied the request.
Continued from page 1
PARINEH
said was a little higher than waist
height.
He was pronounced dead at the
scene after he was removed, Balton
said.
Cal/OSHA has sent an investigator
to the site and has removed the piece
of equipment for inspection, Melton
said.
Melton said the Redwood City
store does not have a record of pre-
vious problems.
A company spokeswoman said
Friday Udo had worked at the
Redwood City store for more than
five years, and that he was well liked.
The death has sent a shock through
the organization, Grocery Outlet
spokeswoman Melissa Porter said.
We are very dismayed, he was an
employee that had been with us for a
while, Porter said.
Company officials were on site
Friday working with OSHAand police
investigators while trying to comfort
employees, Porter said.
Porter said the machine involved in
the accident is commonly used in
retail outlets to compact cardboard
into a bale for recycling. She
described the machine as complicat-
ed and noted that it cannot be legal-
ly used by minors.
However, there were no witnesses
to the accident, so store officials can
only speculate on what happened,
Porter said.
Store employees were given the
choice of whether to open the store
Friday, and chose to open late in the
morning, Porter said.
Theyre a very tight family down
there, Porter said of the Redwood
City stores staff. Theyre being
together and supporting each other.

DEATH
putes with Congress as the new fiscal
year looms in October and the gov-
ernment approaches its borrowing
limit. Then theres overseas turmoil
in Egypt and Syria.
Already shadowing the president are
two major letdowns earlier this year
a gun control measure that
Republicans blocked in the
Democratic-controlled Senate and the
failure to avoid automatic spending
cuts that further trimmed the govern-
ments budget.
He has a Herculean task ahead of
him, Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, the past
chairman of the Congressional Black
Caucus, said hours after he and other
black lawmakers met with the presi-
dent this week. I am convinced he is
fully aware of the difficulties in his
path, difficulties that could reduce his
legacy.
Before his re-election, Obama liked
to tell supporters that a second term
would break the fever with
Republicans, arguing that they no
longer would need to routinely block
his agenda because he wouldnt be
seeking election again. By last
month, that optimism was gone.
When it comes to doing the things
that need to get done, were just not
getting a lot of cooperation from the
other side, he grumbled to donors at
a June fundraiser in Palo Alto, Calif.
Republicans maintain that Obamas
initiatives simply go further than
they are willing to go. Many refused
to support expanded background
checks for firearm purchases at gun
shows and online. They rejected
Obamas efforts to combine spending
cuts with more tax increases. And
now, on immigration, many oppose a
path to citizenship for immigrants
illegally in the United States a key
provision in the overhaul Obama
seeks.
To be sure, the legislative gridlock
has occasionally eased. In February,
Republican leaders allowed an expan-
sion to the Violence Against Women
Act by extending domestic violence
protections to gays, lesbians and
transsexuals. And Republicans and
Democrats are still trying to strike a
deal that would lower interest rates on
student loans.
But another trouble spot for Obama
emerged just recently on what histori-
cally has been a guaranteed bipartisan
achievement: approval of legislation
that includes money for agricultural
subsidies and food stamps. The Senate
passed a single measure. The House
defeated its version. And Republican
leaders this week divided that measure
into two. Obama, who opposes pro-
posed cuts to food stamps in the
House bill, has threatened a veto, sig-
naling the food fight could consume
the coming weeks.
