The countys property assess-
ments hit a historic high of
$164.9 billion in a year that also
saw the number of foreclosures
slashed in half and more proper-
ties retaining and restoring previ-
ously declined value.
The 2014-15
property assess-
ment roll certi-
fied Friday is
$164.9 billion,
an $8.8 billion
or 5.61 per-
cent increase
over last years
$156 billion
roll. Last year also had an $8.8
billion increase which was itself a
3.33 percent jump over the previ-
ous year.
Approximately 30,000 proper-
ty owners will receive their
assessed value notices in the next
few days.
The three-year run of historic
highs and the rolls fourth consec-
utive increase reects the vibrant
economic conditions of our coun-
t y, said Assessor Mark Church in
his announcement of the roll
value.
The property assessment roll is
the value of all properties as of
Jan. 1 of each year, summarizing
the additions, removals and
declines in value from the previ-
ous year. The roll has both a
secured and unsecured section. The
secured represents nearly 95.7
percent of the roll with commer-
cial and real estate property and
this year showed a 5.82 percent
increase.

The proposed land trade between
San Carlos and its elementary
school district for a charter school
campus died Monday night when
Councilman Bob Grassilli cast the
deciding vote that killed the pos-
sibility of rezoning of a North
Crestview park on the fall ballot.
Grassilli voted along with
Councilman Matt Grocott against
overriding the protest of residents
who believe the plan will increase
traffic, eliminate precious open
space and tax the citys coffers
building fields and fighting
expected litigation by neighbors.
Grassilli called it one of the most
difcult issues hes wrestled with in
his nine years
on the council.
I dont make
a decision in a
vacuum or with
preset preju-
dices, Grassilli
said.
The law
required a four-
fifths majority
to go ahead if
even one person led a written
protest. More than 600 did,
including about 25 percent from
non-residents.
Grocott has been the councils
most vocal opponent of the land
swap plan because he said the park

SACRAMENTO California voters could
weigh in this fall on the growing inuence
of money in politics under a bill that
advanced Monday.
The legislation calls for an advisory bal-
lot measure asking if voters want an amend-
ment to the U.S. Constitution clamping
down on corporate campaign giving.

a party-line 49-22 vote, with Republicans
in opposition. The bill is expected to pass
the Senate with amendments and head to
Gov. Jerry Brown.

Kitten travels 30 miles
in engine compartment
SUNNYVALE A San Francisco
Bay Area man had an unexpected pas-
senger in his car during the 30-mile
trip to his parents house: a small,
stray kitten that had somehow found a
place to ride in the engine compart-
ment.
Jim Michelotti says he heard meow-
ing after pulling into a gas station on
Saturday. Awoman next to him said it
was coming from his 1993 Mitsubishi
Diamante, so he began checking
around.
With the help of a flashlight,
Michelotti found the black kitten on a
bar between the engine and rewall,
just inches from the ground. The cat
was greasy and scared, but otherwise
OK.
It had apparently ridden from
Michelottis home in the Silicon
Valley city of Sunnyvale.
Michelotti says the cat appears to
be abandoned.
Nearly 4 tons of
marijuana seized from boat
SAN DIEGO Authorities in San
Diego say theyve seized a smuggling
boat loaded with nearly four tons of
marijuana.
The Coast Guard says a patrolling
aircraft spotted the suspicious boat
on Friday about 160 miles south-
west of San Diego.
Acutter intercepted it and three peo-
ple were detained. Authorities say the
boat held 257 bales of marijuana,
weighing about 7,600 pounds.
The boat was towed to San Diego,
where the pot and suspects were turned
over to a task force led by Immigration
and Customs Enforcement.
Yosemite celebrates
150th anniversary
YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK
Yosemite National Park on Monday
marked 150 years since President
Abraham Lincoln signed an act pro-
tecting the park for generations of
visitors.
The celebration included a ground-
breaking to launch a project restoring
the Mariposa Grove, which consists
of 500 mature giant sequoia trees that
are among the oldest living organisms
in the world.
National Park Service Director Jon
Jarvis said the anniversary should be a
reminder of the ancient treasures with-
in the park.
We stand in awe among these giant
trees that are thousands of years old
and are reminded about the importance
of protecting our natural resources so
that future generations can experience
what John Muir called natures forest
masterpiece, Jarvis said.
Lincoln signed the Yosemite Grant
Act on June 30, 1864, in the midst of
the Civil War. The act protected
Yosemite Valley and the Mariposa
Grove for public use, resort and recre-
ation. The law was the rst in the
nations history allowing for a scenic
natural area to be set aside.
The grove restoration project was
approved in December 2013. The $36
million project is paid for through
$20 million in private contributions
raised by the Yosemite Conservancy
and $16 million from the National
Park Service.
A parking lot that threatens the
trees roots will be moved to another
area and replaced with footpaths,
among other changes to the park. The
work will happen in phases over sev-
eral years.
Officials clash over beach
contamination warnings
TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. Federal
and state ofcials are clashing over
standards for warning the public about
water contamination at the nations
beaches.
The U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency awards grants to states in the
Great Lakes region and along the
ocean coasts to test beach waters for
fecal bacteria.
EPA wants state, tribal and local
governments to use tougher standards
this year for triggering warnings that
the contamination has reached unsafe
levels.

Community colleges could
offer more bachelors degrees
By Angela Swartz
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The 21st-century job market is demanding
more four-year degrees and as a result, the
some state legislators think its time for
California community colleges to be able to
add bachelors programs to meet this need.
The state Assemblys Higher Education
Committee passed Senate Bill 850, authored
by state Sen. Marty Block, D-San Diego, on
June 24. The bill, which still needs to make
its way through Assembly Appropriations
in early August and then to the Assembly
oor for vote, would permit community col-
leges to offer bachelors degrees in limited
circumstances through a pilot program with
a maximum of 15 districts included. The
local community college district is excited
about the potential to participate in the pro-
gram, which would need to commence no
later than the 2017-18 academic year and
students should complete their degrees by
the 2022-23 school year.
Were very pleased with that, said
Barbara Christensen, director of community
and government relations for the San Mateo
County Community College District. We
will denitely petition. The ones were con-
centrating on right now that could be candi-
dates for this are in allied health. Wed like
to ll in a need for respiratory therapy and
radiologic technology degrees.
The district does already offer some four-
year degree programs, including a nursing
program at College of San Mateo that offers
a registered nurse, RN degree. Caada offers
a bachelors of science degree in nursing
through San Francisco State University.
Allied health professions are now asking
applicants to have beyond the associates
degree. The difculty with only being able
to add one four-year degree is that the dis-
trict would like to add both respiratory ther-
apy and radiologic technology degrees to
separate schools in the district, but would
have to choose one, said Chancellor Ron
Galatolo.
The bill states that California needs to
produce 1 million more bachelors degrees
than the state currently produces to remain
economically competitive in the coming
decades. There is demand for education
beyond the associate degree level in specif-
ic academic disciplines that is not currently
being met by Californias four-year public
institutions, according to the bill. Each dis-
trict can have one bachelors degree pro-
gram through an accreditation body. Bill co-
author state Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo,
has been trying to get legislation like this
passed for a number of years. He notes its
an opportunity for students and will help
meet the workforce needs of the community.
San Mateo County has a tremendous
community college district, he said. From
a local perspective, I see the challenges
faced by students who want a four-year
degree. Theyve got to go south, theyve
got to go east or theyve got to north. If
youre working and you have limited time
with the trafc congestion youre faced with
today, its almost an impossible task just to
get to school when you need to for a four-
year degree. There are many areas where the
community colleges are capable of provid-
ing a baccalaureate degree without a great
deal of effort.
Still, Hill would like to see it open up
even more than this bill is doing.
These baccalaureate programs will be lim-
ited and will not in any way detract from the
community colleges traditional mission to
advance Californias economic growth and
global competitiveness through education,
training and services that contribute to con-
tinuous workforce improvement, nor will
these programs unnecessarily duplicate
similar programs offered by nearby public
four-year institutions, the bill states. The
limitation of one program per district is def-
initely a drawback, said Tom Mohr, trustee
on the San Mateo County Community
College District.
Its a denite step forward, he said.
There are some areas in the health eld
where its very important that more than
baccalaureate be made possible by a commu-
nity college. I dont think it is sufcient.
Under the legislation, districts would not
be able to offer a bachelors degree already
offered at California State University of the
University of California.
On the statewide level, Brice W. Harris,
California Community Colleges chancel-
lor, expressed his support for the bill.
I applaud the Assembly Higher Education
Committee for approving this bill designed
to address unmet workforce needs where
career entry requirements have progressed
beyond the associate degree level, he said
in a prepared statement. The legislation
would expand educational access and job
training opportunities for thousands of
Californians. Community colleges offering
baccalaureate degrees under this bill would
not duplicate those degrees that the
University of California or California State
University award.
The California Community Colleges has
72 districts and 112 colleges serving 2.1
million students per year.

Governor recognizes
use of bitcoins in California
SACRAMENTO Gov. Jerry
Brown has signed a bill into law
that recognizes
bitcoins and
other virtual
currencies in
California.
B r o w n
announced over
the weekend
that he had
signed AB129
b y
Assembl yman
Roger Dickinson.
Dickinson, a Democrat from
Sacramento, said his bill repeals an
outdated restriction on using any-
thing but the lawful currency of the
U.S. He says people already rou-
tinely use digital currency,
coupons, so-called community cur-
rency and reward points programs
such as Amazon Coins and
Starbucks Stars without legal
penalty.
Community currencies rely on
local merchants who agree to
accept the alternative currency, usu-
ally as a way of encouraging cus-
tomers to visit small businesses.
Senate approves restitution

along with payments in more than
300 other state claims. The 27-3

Democratic Sen. Kevin de Leon,
of Los Angeles, says Rocha was
wrongfully convicted in 1997 of
participating in a gang shooting at

in a gang.
Rocha successfully appealed his
conviction. After it was upheld, the
Los Angeles County district attor-
neys ofce declined to retry him.

WASHINGTON Conceding
defeat on a top domestic priority,
President Barack Obama blamed a
Republican year of obstruction
for the demise of sweeping immi-
gration legislation on Monday and
said he would take new steps with-
out Congress to x as much of the
system as he can on his own.
The only thing I cant do is
stand by and do nothing, the pres-
ident said. But he gave few hints
about what steps he might take by
executive action.
Even as he blamed House
Republicans for frustrating him on
immigration, Obama asked
Congress for more money and addi-
tional authority to deal with the
unexpected crisis of a surge of unac-
companied Central American
youths arriving by the thousands at
the Southern border. Obama wants
exibility to speed the youths
deportations and $2 billion in new
money to hire more immigration
judges and open more detention
facilities, requests that got a cool
reception from congressional
Republicans and angered advocates.
The twin announcements came as
the administration confronted the
tricky politics of immigration in a
midterm election year with
Democratic control of the Senate in
jeopardy. The fast-developing
humanitarian disaster on the border
has provoked calls for a border
crackdown at the same moment that
immigration advocates are demand-
ing Obama loosen deportation rules
in the face of congressional inac-
tion. Obamas announcement came
almost a year to the day after the
Senate passed a historic immigra-
tion bill that would have spent bil-
lions to secure the border and
offered a path to citizenship for
many of the 11.5 million people
now here illegally.
Despite the efforts of an extraor-
dinary coalition of businesses,
unions, religious leaders, law
enforcement ofcials and others,
the GOP-led House never acted.
Our country and our economy
would be stronger today if House
Republicans had allowed a simple
yes-or-no vote on this bill or, for
that matter, any bill, Obama said
in the Rose Garden. Theyd be fol-
lowing the will of the majority of
the American people, who support
reform. And instead theyve proven
again and again that theyre unwill-
ing to stand up to the tea party in
order to do whats best for the coun-
try.
Obama: Ill act on my
own on immigration

SACRAMENTO Californias
minimum wage will rise to $9 an
hour when a new law takes effect on
Tuesday and provides workers with
the rst such increase since 2008.
That amount will increase again
to $10 an hour starting on Jan. 1,
2016, under AB10, which Gov.
Jerry Brown signed into law last
fall.
This rst modest increase will
help put more money in the pock-
ets of hardworking Californians to
provide food, clothes and housing
for their families, Assemblyman
Luis Alejo, D-Salinas, said in a
statement. AB10 is one of several
laws that take effect in July. Others
will provide additional protections
to victims of domestic violence,
expand the states paid family
leave program, and give tax breaks
to manufacturers.
Californias minimum wage
increase comes amid a national
debate about low-wage workers
who have seen their purchasing
power decline in recent years.
President Barack Obama has
pushed Congress to raise the feder-
al minimum wage to $10.10 an
hour, but the proposal hasnt
gained much traction. Instead, he
has encouraged cities and states to
raise those wages on their own.
New York City, Chicago, San
Francisco and Oklahoma City are
among the municipalities debating
minimum wage increases. In early
June, the Seattle City Council
voted to raise the minimum wage
within the city to $15 an hour,
starting next April and phasing in
over several years.
Currently, the highest minimum
wage in the country is in SeaTac, a
Washington state town of about
25,000 that is home to Seattle-
Tacoma International Airport. The
$15-an-hour minimum wage
approved by voters took effect in
January for workers at major hotels
and parking lots, and the state
Supreme Court will decide whether
it also applies to workers at the air-
port, which is run by a separate
authority.

Man, 19, arrested for DUI
following head-on collision
A 19-year-old South San Francisco man
was arrested on suspicion of driving under
the inuence of alcohol following a head-on
collision near Junipero Serra County Park
in San Bruno early Sunday morning, police
said.
At 12:11 a.m., San Bruno police ofcers
and emergency crews responded to a report
of a vehicle collision on Crystal Springs
Road near Cunningham Way.
Based on the preliminary investigation,
the collision occurred when a black
Chevrolet Camaro traveling west on
Crystal Springs Road crossed over the cen-
ter line and struck a white Ford Explorer
traveling in the opposite direction head-on,
police said.
The drivers of both vehicles, as well as
the passenger in the Camaro, were all trans-
ported to San Francisco General Hospital
with serious injuries, police said.
The driver of the Camaro, identied as
Hugo Gutierrez, 19, was arrested under sus-
picion of driving under the influence,
according to police.
Half Moon Bay man pleads no
contest to child porn possession
A 70-year-old Half Moon Bay man has
pleaded no contest to felony possession of
child pornography, San Mateo County
prosecutors said Monday. Christopher
ODonnell entered the plea Friday in
exchange for a sentence of no more than
three years in prison, according to the
District Attorneys Ofce.
ODonnell was charged in 2012 after FBI
investigators came across posts he made on
an online message board concerning child
pornography. Search warrants revealed
binders of child pornography in his home
and more than 2,500 images and 200 videos
of child porn on his computer, prosecutors
said.
ODonnell, who remains in custody on
$100,000 bail, will return to court on Aug.
4 for sentencing.
Attempted robbery
at Belmont smoke shop
Two men attempted to rob a Belmont
smoke shop Friday night, but ed without
getting anything when a customer escaped
and called 911.
At approximately 9 p.m., the owner of a
smoke shop in the 300 block of El Camino
Real was in the store with a customer when
two men entered the shop through a rear
door that had been propped open for venti-
lation. One of the suspects brandished a
dark semi-automatic handgun at the store
owner and demanded money. The customer, a
70-year-old male, ran out the front door and
called 911. The suspects turned and ed back
out the rear door of the business without
getting anything, according to police.
Belmont police arrived on scene within a
minute of the call and conducted an area
search for the suspects, which included
assistance from a airplane from the San
Mateo County Sheriff's Ofce. Neither the
shop owner nor the customer were injured
during the incident, according to police.
The suspects were described as Hispanic,
approximately 5 feet 6 inches with medium
builds. Both were wearing dark clothing and
dark masks. A black air-soft type replica
handgun and a pair of black sweatpants were
found discarded a short distance from the
store, according to police.
Belmont police are asking anyone with
information on this incident to call them at
(650) 595-7400.
Oyster farm owners
eye options after ruling
The U.S. Supreme Court refused Monday
to consider the appeal of a popular oyster
farm that federal ofcials want to shutter and
return to wilderness along the coast of
Northern California.
The justices without comment left in
place lower court rulings against Drakes
Bay Oyster Co.
The owners said later at a news conference
in San Francisco that they would keep ght-
ing to stay in business.
Its not over until the last oyster is
shucked, Kevin Lunny said.
Lunny said he and his lawyers are consid-
ering several options but didnt specify
their next step to keep the oyster farm oper-
ating and its workers on the job along Point
Reyes National Seashore, north of San
Francisco.
Lunny said pursuing a legislative solution
is one option because Congress could over-
ride the Department of Interior and issue the
farm a permit.
Lower courts have allowed the farm to
keep operating through the appeals
process.
The case began in 2007 when the
Department of Interior made it clear it would
not renew the oyster farms 40-year lease
when it expired in 2012. The agency cited a
1976 Congressional decision to return the
waters of Drakes Estero to wilderness status.
The department also cited research critical
of the operations effects on harbor seals,
which use the estuary to reproduce.

NEW YORK Plastic junk is oating
widely on the worlds oceans, but theres
less of it than expected, a study says.
Such ocean pollution has drawn attention
in recent years because of its potential harm
to sh and other wildlife.
The new work drew on results from an
around-the-world cruise by a research ship
that towed a mesh net at 141 sites, as well
as other studies. Researchers estimated the
total amount of oating plastic debris in
open ocean at 7,000 to 35,000 tons.
Andres Cozar of the University of Cadiz
in Spain, an author of the study, said thats
a lot less than the 1 million tons he had
extrapolated from data reaching back to the
1970s.
The new estimate includes only oating
debris, not plastic that may reside beneath
the surface or on the ocean oor.
Of the plastic pieces caught by the ships
net, most were less than about a fth of an
inch long. Some oating pieces start out
small, like the microbeads found in some
toothpastes and cosmetics or industrial pel-
lets used to make plastic products. Other
small pieces can result when wave action
breaks up larger objects, like bottle caps,
detergent bottles and shopping bags.
The net turned up fewer small pieces than
expected, and it will be important to gure
out why, researchers said. Perhaps the tini-
est pieces are being eaten by small sh,
with uncertain effects on their health, Cozar
said in an email.
While the research showed plastic to be
distributed widely, concentrations were
highest in ve areas that were predicted by
ocean current patterns. They are west of the
U.S., between the U.S. and Africa, west of
southern South America and east and west of
the southern tip of Africa.
Plastic debris from land reaches the ocean
mostly through storm water runoff, the
researchers said in their report, released
Monday by the Proceedings of the National
Academy of Sciences.
Kara Lavender Law, who studies plastic
pollution at the Sea Education Association in
Woods Hole, Massachusetts, said the study
provides the rst global estimate she knows
of for oating plastic debris. The estimate
appears to be in the ballpark, given the
results of prior regional studies, said Law,
who didnt participate in the new work.
We are putting, certainly by any esti-
mate, a large amount of a synthetic material
into a natural environment, Law said.
Were fundamentally changing the compo-
sition of the ocean.
The impact on sh and birds is hard to
gauge because scientists dont understand
things like how much plastic animals
encounter and how they might be harmed if
they swallow it, she said.

WASHINGTON A sharply divided
Supreme Court ruled Monday that some
companies with religious objections can
avoid the contraceptives requirement in
President Barack Obamas health care over-
haul, the first time the high court has
declared that businesses can hold religious
views under federal law.
The justices 5-4 decision, splitting con-
servatives and liberals, means the Obama
administration must search for a different
way of providing free contraception to
women who are covered under the health
insurance plans of objecting companies.
Justice Samuel Alito wrote in his majority
opinion, over a dissent from the four liberal
justices, that forcing companies to pay for
methods of womens contraception to which
they object violates the 1993 Religious
Freedom Restoration Act. He said the ruling
is limited and there are ways for the admin-
istration to ensure women get the birth con-
trol they want.
But White House press secretary Josh
Earnest said the decision creates health
risks for women, and he said Congress
should take action to make sure they get
coverage.
President Obama believes that women
should make personal health care decisions
for themselves rather than their bosses
deciding for them, Earnest said. Todays
decision jeopardizes the health of the
women who are employed by these compa-
nies.
Contraception is among a range of pre-
ventive services that must be provided at no
extra charge under the health care law that
Obama signed in 2010. Nearly 30 million
women receive birth control as a result of
the health law, the government has said.
Benets experts say they expect little
impact from the ruling because employers
use health benefits to recruit and retain
workers. But one constitutional law scholar,
Marci Hamilton of Yeshiva University, cau-
tioned that more than 80 percent of U.S.
corporations are closely held and she said
they could now be able to discriminate
against their employees.
Two years ago, Chief Justice John
Roberts cast the pivotal Supreme Court vote
that saved the law in the midst of Obamas
campaign for re-election. On Monday,
Roberts sided with the four justices who
would have struck down the law in its entire-
t y, holding in favor of the religious rights
of closely held corporations, like the
Oklahoma-based Hobby Lobby chain of
arts-and-craft stores that challenged the
contraceptives provision.
Hobby Lobby is among roughly 50 busi-
nesses that have sued over covering contra-
ceptives. Some, like the two involved in the
Supreme Court case, are willing to cover
most methods of contraception, as long as
they can exclude drugs or devices that the
government says may work after an egg has
been fertilized.
But Mondays ruling would apply more
broadly to other companies that do not want
to pay for any of the 20 birth control meth-
ods and devices that have been approved by
federal regulators.
Alito said the decision is limited to con-
traceptives. Our decision should not be
understood to hold that an insurance-cover-
age mandate must necessarily fall if it con-
icts with an employers religious beliefs,
he said.
He suggested two ways the administration
could deal with the birth control issue. The
government could simply pay for pregnan-
cy prevention, he said. Or it could provide
the same kind of accommodation it has made
Court: Religious rights
trump birth control rule

SAN FRANCISCO The U.S. Supreme
Court cleared the way Monday for enforce-
ment of a rst-of-its-kind California law
that bars psychological counseling aimed at
turning gay minors straight.
The justices turned aside a legal challenge
brought by supporters of so-called conver-
sion or reparative therapy. Without com-
ment, they let stand an August 2013 appeals
court ruling that said the ban covered pro-
fessional activities that are within the
states authority to regulate and doesnt vio-
late the free speech rights of licensed coun-
selors and patients seeking treatment.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals
ruled last year that California lawmakers
properly showed that therapies designed to
change sexual orientation for those under
the age of 18 were outside the scientic
mainstream and have been disavowed by
most major medical groups as unproven and
potentially dangerous.
The Supreme Court has cement shut any
possible opening to allow further psycho-
logical child abuse in California, state
Sen. Ted Lieu, the laws sponsor, said
Monday. The Courts refusal to accept the
appeal of extreme ideological therapists
who practice the quackery of gay conver-
sion therapy is a victory for child welfare,
science and basic humane principles.
The law says professional therapists and
counselors who use treatments designed to
eliminate or reduce same-sex attractions in
their patients would be engaging in unpro-
fessional conduct and subject to discipline
by state licensing boards. It does not cover
the actions of pastors and lay counselors
who are unlicensed but provide such therapy
through church programs.
Liberty Counsel, a Christian legal aid
group, had challenged the law, as did other
supporters of the therapy. They argue that
lawmakers have no scientic proof the ther-
apy does harm. New Jersey Gov. Chris
Christie signed a bill outlawing the practice
in his state last year and Liberty Counsel
has been ghting that law as well.

WASHINGTON The Supreme Court dealt
a blow to public sector unions Monday, rul-
ing that thousands of home health care
workers in Illinois cannot be required to pay
fees that help cover a unions costs of col-
lective bargaining.
In a 5-4 split along ideological lines, the
justices said the practice violates the First
Amendment rights of nonmembers who dis-
agree with the positions that unions take.
The ruling is a setback for labor unions
that have bolstered their ranks and their
bank accounts in Illinois and other states by
signing up hundreds of thousands of in-
home care workers. It could lead to an exo-
dus of members who will have little incen-
tive to pay dues if nonmembers dont have
to share the burden of union costs.
But the narrow ruling was limited to par-
tial-public employees and stopped short of
overturning decades of practice that has
generally allowed public sector unions of
teachers, reghters and other government
workers to pass through their representa-
tion costs to nonmembers.

BAGHDAD A militant extremist
groups unilateral declaration of an
Islamic state is threatening to under-
mine its already-tenuous alliance with
other Sunnis who helped it overrun
much of northern and western Iraq.
One uneasy ally has vowed to resist
if the militants try to impose their
strict interpretation of Shariah law.
Fighters from the al-Qaida break-
away group Islamic State of Iraq and the
Levant have spearheaded the offensive
in recent weeks that has plunged Iraq
into its deepest crisis since the last
U.S. troops left in 2011. The groups
lightning advance has brought under
its control territory stretching from
northern Syria as far as the outskirts of
Baghdad in central Iraq.
In a bold move Sunday, the group
announced the establishment of its
own state, or caliphate, governed by
Islamic law. It proclaimed its leader,
Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, a highly ambi-
tious Iraqi militant with a $10 million
U.S. bounty on his head, to be the
caliph, and it demanded that Muslims
around the world pledge allegiance to
him.
Through brute force and meticulous
planning, the Sunni extremist group
which said it was changing its name to
simply the Islamic State, dropping the
reference to Iraq and the Levant has
managed to effectively erase the Syria-
Iraq border and lay the foundations of
its proto-state. Along the way, it has
battled Syrian rebels, Kurdish militias
and the Syrian and Iraqi militaries.
Now, the groups declaration risks
straining its loose alliances with other
Sunnis who share the militants hopes
of bringing down Iraqs Shiite-led gov-
ernment but not necessarily its ambi-
tions of carving out a transnational
caliphate. Iraqs minority Sunnis com-
plain they have been treated as second-
class citizens and unfairly targeted by
security forces.
Topping the list of uneasy allies is
the Army of the Men of the
Naqshabandi Order, a Sunni militant
organization with ties to Saddam
Husseins now-outlawed Baath Party.
The group depicts itself as a national-
ist force that defends Iraqs Sunnis
from Shiite rule.
Asenior Naqshabandi commander in
Diyala province northeast of Baghdad
told The Associated Press that his
group has no intention of joining
the Islamic State or working under it.
He said that would be a difcult thing
to do because our ideology is different
from the Islamic States extremist ide-
ology.
Till now, the Islamic State ghters
are avoiding any friction with us in the
areas we control in Diyala, but if they
are to change their approach toward our
ghters and people living in our areas,
we expect rounds of ghting with the
Islamic States people, said the com-
mander who goes by the nom de guerre
of Abu Fatima.
Islamic state declaration may
undermine Sunni alliance
Bodies of missing Israeli teens found in West Bank
JERUSALEM The Israeli military found the bodies of
three missing teenagers on Monday just over two weeks after
they were abducted in the West Bank a grim discovery that
ended a frantic search that led to Israels largest ground opera-
tion in the Palestinian territory in nearly a decade and drew
Israeli threats of retaliation.
Hamas is responsible and Hamas will pay, Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu vowed, referring to the Islamic militant
group that Israel has accused of carrying out the kidnappings.
The teenagers were kidnapped and murdered in cold blood
by human animals, the Israeli leader said as he convened an
emergency meeting of his Security Cabinet.
The three-hour session ended after midnight without any
decisions, and ofcials were expected to resume deliberations
on Tuesday.
Early Tuesday, Israel carried out an especially intense series
of airstrikes in Gaza, saying it had struck 34 targets across the
Hamas-controlled territory. The military said the airstrikes
were a response to a barrage of 18 rockets red into Israel
since late Sunday.
The IDF will continue to act in order to restore the peaceful
living to the civilians of the state of Israel. The Hamas terror
organization and its extensions are solely responsible for any
terror activities emanating from the Gaza Strip, said Lt. Col.
Peter Lerner, a military spokesman.
Ukrainian president ends unilateral ceasefire
KIEV, Ukraine Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko
said he was abandoning a unilateral cease-re in the conict
with pro-Russian separatists and sending military forces back
on the offensive after talks with Russia and European leaders
failed to start a broader peace process.
Poroshenkos decision, announced shortly after the much-
violated 10-day cease-re expired, raises the prospect of
renewed escalation of a conict that has killed more than 400
people.
Agrave Poroshenko made a televised address early Tuesday
vowing that we will attack, and we will free our country. The
cease-re expired at 10 p.m. Monday.
There was no immediate sign of a response from Russia
early Tuesday.
The idea behind the truce announced June 20 was to give
pro-Russian rebels a chance to disarm and to start a broader
peace process including an amnesty and new elections.
Poroshenko, a wealthy candy magnate elected May 25, had
already extended the cease-re from seven days.

Thanks to
Surfrider and Jerry Hill
Editor,
This may sound like a political
endorsement but believe me its any-
thing but. I would like to thanks two
groups that have put time and money
into keeping our coast open to every-
one. Im talking about the Surfrider
Foundation and state Sen. Jerry Hill,
D-San Mateo.
The Surfriders started this ght to
keep Martins Beach open to the public
and have stayed with it. The results of
this ght will affect all beaches in
California in the future. If you enjoy
the beach you need to appreciate this
group. Without them, billionaires like
Vinod Khosla would own are beaches
and keep them to themselves. The next
time you have sand between your toes
remember this group and support them.
They made it possible. Thanks
Surfriders.
As for Sen. Hill, for whom I am not
related or do I work for or volunteer for,
I also say thanks. I personally do not
like or trust politicians but I say with-
out reservation Jerry Hill has repre-
sented the public trust so far without
fault. I have requested and been seen in
his ofce on other matters such as
ood insurance and he addressed them
like he is addressing the Martins
Beach issue. I say thanks to Jerry Hill
and remind him that politicians can
survive doing, what he is doing, lis-
tening and supporting the general pub-
lic, what a novel idea. Thanks Jerry.

Free speech upheld
Editor,
I would like to give you an overview,
highlights, of the U.S. Supreme
Courts unanimous decision on the
unconstitutionality of the 35-foot
buffer zone in Massachusettss law
banning prolifers of a reasonably
right to free speech.
This could be the beginning of
another look at buffer zones, regardless
of any size, bubble zones, 7 or 8 feet
laws restricting prolifers from exer-
cising their lawful right of free speech.
The court declared that there are
already laws that are less restrictive of
protecting women from harassment.
There are criminal laws and civil
injunctions barring harassment of
patients and obstruction of clinics. So,
why all the increase of these unneces-
sary laws that are only a continuously
chipping away of our constitutional
right of lawful free speech? Well, I
think Justice Scalia statement that the
goal of such is protecting citizens
supposed right to avoid speech that
they would rather not hear. Another
strong statement that Mark Rienzi,
lead counsel for McCullen was that the
government cannot reserve its public
sidewalks for Planned Parenthood, as if
their message is the only one that
women should be allowed to hear.
Chief Justice John Roberts said the
plaintiffs who challenged the law are
not protesters, but seek not merely to
express their opposition to abortion,
but to inform women of various alter-
natives through personal, caring, con-
sensual conversations. He also said
that it deprives them of their two pri-
mary methods of communicating with
arriving patients: close, personal con-
versations and distribution of litera-
ture.
Lastly, I personally am looking for-
ward to challenging the 25-foot buffer
zone at Planned Parenthood on
Valencia Street in San Francisco.

Give Design Tech
High School a chance
Editor,
I wanted to write a letter in support
of the new charter school, Design Tech
High School.
Parents have long agreed that a one-
size ts all standard for education does
not t all. All parents should have the
right to choose a school that best
meets the needs of their child. Many
innovations made in traditional
schools were rst pioneered in charter
schools. Design Tech will incorporate
ideas from the Hasso Plattner Institute
of Design at Stanford University as
part of its curriculum.
Organizations such as SAP, The Bill
and Melinda Gates Foundation,
Electronic Arts, Jetblue Airways
Corporation and Intuit have worked
closely with the Institute of Design at
Stanford, acting as test cases for cours-
es or posting job openings on
d.school boards. Proctor & Gamble,
Google and Fidelity Investments all
are known to recruit heavily for stu-
dents with a design-thinking back-
ground.
AWall Street Journal article pub-
lished on June 7, 2012, entitled
Forget B-School, D-School is Hot
further hammers in the point that mod-
ern companies are looking for a differ-
ent skill set than traditional educations
provide. Why not give our students a
head start right in high school for the
careers of tomorrow? Charter schools
are highly accountable entities. The
amount of exibility is unprecedented
in terms of needed staff changes or cur-
riculum adjustments to meet student
achievement goals. Those with chroni-
cally poor performance are required to
close.
I encourage parents and all interested
parties to give the website
www.dtechhs.org a look. Lets give
DTHS a chance.

Coho salmon and the drought
Editor,
The story California drought helps
coho salmon migration in the June 25
edition of the Daily Journal makes
more sense when you consider the fol-
lowing:
Its more about when the rain fell
than it is about the drought. Amajor
limiting factor for recovery of these
salmon is the low survival rates of
tiny, young salmon that are unable to
nd refuge during large spring rain-
storms.
Suburbanization has destroyed the
historical oodplains where they once
found shelter and, simultaneously,
increased water velocity in our creeks
from water running off impermeable
roads, houses and parking lots. Before
suburbanization, creeks would overow
their banks into shallow, low-owing
oodplains carrying sh to safety dur-
ing storms. Today those storms leave
the salmon with nowhere to hide.
While we are delighted that an unusu-
al rainfall pattern allowed more juve-
nile salmon to survive and migrate to
sea, it is too early to uncork the cham-
pagne bottles.
Rather, we should work together to
save our salmon by restoring creekside
habitat. To accomplish this, SPAWN
has proposed a Community Salmon
Land Trust (C-SALT) program aimed at
restoring oodplain habitat to protect
salmon while simultaneously creating
affordable housing opportunities. C-
SALTgives baby salmon a long-term
chance at recovery, rather than bank-
ing on another lucky year.

Putting your money
where your mouth is
C
heap glue can soften the staunchest of political
stances. Astep back: My road to bended beliefs
began a few months back with a framing store
chains Sunday advertisement. The flier included an
artsy-looking industrial wall vase hanging thing, all
reclaimed wood and glass and metal. It also included a
price tag somewhere around $8 million plus a kidney.
When it comes to tangible creativity, Ill never be a
staple on Etsy but I am not half bad at imitation.
We can make this, I said to the other half in the
domestic decorating decisions. We had some extra beat-
up wood scraps from a deck
demolition. The metal fasten-
ers and Spanish moss were
easily fetched. Thank you,
dollar store. The real chal-
lenge was going to be find-
ing the perfect flowery,
branchy pieces to fill the
vases.
Two days later, I was sur-
prised by the art piece that
had been assembled in my
absence. Then the confes-
sion: I know were not sup-
posed to like Hobby Lobby
but I went in just to see. And it had so much. And so
much cheaper. Does this make me a bad person? came
the explanation.
True, we werent supposed to like Hobby Lobby. There
was the at-the-time pending U.S. Supreme Court case
over contraception. There was the companys backing
of Arizonas anti-gay law which would have allowed
businesses to refuse service. There was just the annoy-
ance that the company closed every Sunday although
that is more a personal than political bother. Who ever
decides they need framing and stencils on a Saturday?
But yes, the store is huge. And yes the store is cheap-
er. Its hard to go wrong with eight aisles of flower pos-
sibilities and a perpetual 40 percent off coupon. I under-
stood. I forgave. I helped hang the piece and did a men-
tal high-five at having escaped contributing any actual
labor.
Besides, the Supreme Court justices would rule that
Hobby Lobby had to fund contraception, right? I figured
then that even if the company was only doing the right
thing out of legal requirement at least I could justify
supporting the store employees who would now be
given the same right as any others under the umbrella of
Obamacare.
Lately, its been easy to actively boycott or at least
judge business and states that dont echo my opinions
of how the world should turn. Arizona was easy. I dont
live there and baseball season hadnt kicked in yet.
Chick-fil-A? Dont even know where one is located so
could easily calorie-load elsewhere and feel superior.
Even Hobby Lobby isnt located in the Bay Area so
those here dont have to think too hard to take their
business to any of the other national chains or local
shops offering assorted notions.
But wandering outside the bubble into regions where
Hobby Lobby has hoisted its shingle, it is theoretically
time to put ones money where ones mouth is. Frankly,
though, sometimes while my brain and heart say one
thing, my mouth says $4 for tacky glue? Youve got to
be kidding me.
Weeks later, armed with plans to build rather than pur-
chase an overpriced cookie-cutter front door wreath, no
ethical qualms stopped me from heading straight to
Hobby Lobby. The U.S. Supreme Court still hadnt
issued its ruling. There was yet time to enjoy discounted
ribbon without feeling like a complete hypocrite and,
darn it, I needed dried flower preserver.
Monday, however, the U.S. Supreme Court favored
Hobby Lobby, disappointing those of us who felt oppo-
site and potentially opening the door for future health
care omissions based on religious faith. Thank good-
ness Ive gotten the artsy streak out of my system
because in a mental battle between enjoying affordable
craft stuff and supporting affordable health care, the lat-
ter has to win out. Its hard to justify keeping a few
more pennies in my pocket when thanks to five male
justices, female employees will feel a lot less in theirs.

NEWYORK The stock market got
back on track in the second quarter.
After a bumpy start to the year, the
Standard & Poors 500 index resumed
its upward climb in the March-June
period. The index rose 4.7 percent, ver-
sus a 1.3 percent gain in the rst three
months of the year.
As the weather improved this spring,
investors received more encouraging
news about hiring and manufacturing.
Investors sold stocks in January as
they worried about the impact of an
unusually harsh winter on the econo-
my.
Stocks were also propelled higher by
a turnaround in some of the riskier
parts of the market. Internet, biotech-
nology and small-company stocks all
rebounded after dragging the market
lower in March.
Company earnings, already at record
levels, continued to grind higher. Even
an escalating conflict in Iraq that
pushed up oil prices in June wasnt
enough to stop stocks from rising.
Im not seeing anything thats
going to derail the overall upward
climb of the market, said Karyn
Cavanaugh, senior market strategist
with Voya Investment Management.
The economic backdrop is getting
better, so companies will make even
more money.
The Standard & Poors 500 index fell
0.73 points on Monday, less than 0.1
percent, to 1,960.23, just two points
from its record close of 1,962.87 set
June 20.
The Dow Jones industrial average fell
25.24 points, or 0.2 percent, to
16,826.60 and posted a gain of 2.4
percent in the quarter. The Nasdaq com-
posite rose 10.25 points, or 0.2 per-
cent, to 4,408.18, rising 5 percent in
the quarter.
Stocks ickered between small gains
and losses on Monday, keeping major
indexes close to record levels, as
investors assessed the latest data on
housing.
Home builders rose following news
that the number of Americans who
signed contracts to buy homes shot up
in May. The National Association of
Realtors said its seasonally adjusted
pending home sales index rose 6.1 per-
cent to 103.9 last month. It was the
sharpest month-over-month gain since
April 2010.
Gains for home builders were led by
D.R. Horton, which rose 75 cents, or
3.1 percent, to $24.58.
Utility stocks also did well. The sec-
tor rose 0.8 percent, making it the
biggest gainer of the 10 industry sec-
tors that make up the S&P 500 indus-
try.
The group has climbed 16.4 percent
this year as bond yields have fallen,
forcing investors to look elsewhere for
income.
General Motor was among the days
losers.
Trading in the automakers stock was
briey suspended in the afternoon after
the company announced that it was
recalling at least 7.6 million more
vehicles dating back to 1997 to x
faulty ignition switches.
Perhaps the biggest surprise for
investors in the second quarter was a
strong rally in government bonds.
At the start of the year, most analysts
and investors had expected bond yields
to rise as the Federal Reserve gradually
cut back on its economic stimulus and
wound down its bond-buying program
and the economy improved.
Instead, the opposite has happened.
Bonds have rallied, pushing yields
lower. Bonds have gained as ination
stayed low and as some investors
remained skeptical about the long-term
strength of the economy.
The yield on the 10-year Treasury
note, which falls as bond prices rise,
dropped to 2.52 percent on Monday
from 2.54 percent on Friday. It had
started the year at 3 percent.
Joe Hieder, a regional managing
principal at Rehmann Financial, a
wealth adviser, said he was surprised
that long-term interest rates were still
moving lower.
Stocks end mixed; S&P closes near high
By Josh Boak
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON The number of
Americans who signed contracts to buy
homes shot up in May. But the pace of buy-
ing this year remains slower than in 2013,
in part because of sluggish sales during win-
ter.
The National Association of Realtors said
Monday that its seasonally adjusted pending
home sales index rose 6.1 percent to 103.9
last month. It was the sharpest month-over-
month gain since April 2010. The index
remains 5.2 percent below its level a year
ago.
Pending sales are a barometer of future pur-
chases. A one- to two-month lag usually
exists between a contract and a completed
sale.
Lower mortgage rates and increased sup-
plies of homes on the market drove much of
last months gains. Signed contracts rose in
all four U.S. regions: the Northeast,
Midwest, South and West.
The housing market is nally showing
signs of momentum, though overall buying
remains slower than last year.
The sector continues to put the horrid
(winter) weather behind it and is moving
on, said Jennifer Lee, senior economist at
BMO Capital Markets. It certainly helps
that condence is higher, borrowing costs
are slipped from the start of the year and it is
reportedly becoming less strenuous to
obtain a mortgage.
In a separate report last week, the Realtors
said completed sales of existing homes rose
4.9 percent in May to a seasonally adjusted
annual rate of 4.89 million homes. Still,
sales are down 5 percent year-over-year.
The Realtors forecast that sales of exist-
ing homes will decline 2.8 percent this year
to 4.95 million, compared with 5.1 million
in 2013.
Sales of new homes jumped 18.6 percent
last month to an annual rate of 504,000, the
highest level since May 2008, the govern-
ment said last week.
Two sources of friction in the housing
market have recently eased: Mortgage rates
and supplies of homes for sale.
Sales began to slow in the second half of
last year as mortgage rates crept up from his-
toric lows and prices rose further, making it
less affordable for many Americans to buy.
There were also too few homes for sale,
which meant that would-be buyers had to
delay their purchases until they had more
options from which to choose.
Average rates for 30-year xed-rate mort-
gages declined to 4.17 percent last week,
down from 4.20 percent the previous week.
Mortgage rates are about a quarter of a per-
centage point higher than at the same time
last year.
The supply of homes for sale has also
risen. The number rose 2.2 percent in May
to 2.28 million. The supply is 6 percent
higher than a year ago, which analysts say
should help slow price growth and boost
sales.

DETROIT General Motors safety crisis
deepened dramatically Monday when the
automaker added 8.2 million vehicles to its
ballooning list of cars recalled over faulty
ignition switches.
The latest recalls involve mainly older
midsize cars and bring GMs total recalls in
North America to 29 million this year, sur-
passing the 22 million recalled by all
automakers last year. They also raise ques-
tions about the safety of ignition switches
in cars made by all manufacturers.
In the latest recalls, GM said keys may be
jostled or accidentally bumped, causing the
ignition to slip out of the run position.
The recalls cover seven vehicles, including
the Chevrolet Malibu from 1997 to 2005,
the Pontiac Grand Prix from 2004 to 2008,
and the 2003-2014 Cadillac CTS.
The company is aware of three deaths,
eight injuries and seven crashes involving
the vehicles, although it says theres no
clear evidence that faulty switches caused
the accidents. Air bags didnt deploy in the
three fatal accidents, which is a sign that the
ignition was out of position. But air bags
may not deploy for other reasons as well.
AGM spokesman couldnt say Monday if
more recalls are imminent. But this may be
the end of the recalls associated with a 60-
day review of all of the companys ignition
switches. At the companys annual meeting
earlier in June, CEO Mary Barra said she
hoped most recalls related to that review
would be completed by the end of the
month.
Karl Brauer, an industry analyst with
Kelley Blue Book, said the number of
recalls while huge may be a good
thing for the company in the long run.
I think theres a new standard for what
GM considers a potential safety defect, and
Mary Barra has no tolerance or patience for
potential safety defects that are unre-
solved, he said.
In a statement Monday, Barra said we
will act appropriately and without hesita-
tion if any new issues come to light.

CHICAGO An evacuation slide inated
inside a United Airlines plane as it ew from
Chicago to California, lling part of the
cabin and forcing the pilot to make an emer-
gency landing in Kansas, the airline and
passengers said.
Mike Schroeder said he was flying to
Orange County, California, late Sunday
when he heard a hiss and pop. Schroeder said
he turned around and saw the planes evacua-
tion slide which would normally go out-
side the plane during an emergency
inating inside the cabin.
United Airlines ofcials said in a state-
ment Monday that no one aboard Flight
1463 was injured.
Passengers remained calm and took pic-
tures of the inated slide with their phones,
Schroeder said. The Boeing 737-700 pilot
announced to passengers that they would be
landing at Wichitas Mid-Continent
Airport.
When the pilot came out right after land-
ing he said, Oh golly, Ive never seen that
before, Schroeder said.
Christen David, a spokeswoman for the
Chicago-based airline, said the slide acci-
dentally deployed and that all 96 passen-
gers were seated when the slide inated. The
airline provided passengers hotel rooms and
planned a flight Monday morning from
Wichita to California.
Uniteds maintenance team will inspect
the aircraft to nd out what happened, David
said.
Elizabeth Cory, a spokeswoman for the
Federal Aviation Administration, said
agency investigators were at the scene in
Wichita, but that the investigation would
take weeks.

Starbucks chair
co-writing book on military vets
NEW YORK Starbucks chairman
Howard Schultz is collaborating on a book
about veterans of the wars in Iraq and
Afghanistan.
For Love of Country: What Our Veterans
Can Teach Us About Citizenship, Heroism,
and Sacrice will be released by Alfred A.
Knopf on Nov. 4. The book will be co-writ-
ten by Washington Post correspondent and
editor Rajiv Chandrasekaran.
Given that less than 1 percent of our
country has served in the military conicts
of the last decade, this is a time in America
when its crucial to bridge the divide in our
society between our civilian and military
populations, Schultz said in a statement
issued Monday by the publisher.
The book will tell of deeds both on the
battleeld and back home, whether an ortho-
pedic surgeon who enlisted at age 60 and
saved numerous lives or a military spouse
helping wives of severely wounded soldiers.
Schultz has been a prominent advocate for
veterans, saying that too little has been
done for them once their service was com-
pleted. He has pledged to hire 10,000 veter-
ans and military spouses and earlier this year
donated $30 million for research into post-
traumatic stress syndrome and brain trauma.
According to Knopf, a majority of
author proceeds will be donated to veteran
services organizations.
Business brief

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
It was a game that was destined to end in a
cloud of dust.
The Pacifica Colts have been playing
them close all year. And Mondays San
Mateo County Colt League championship
game was no different. Pacica prevailed 3-
2 over the South City Mudcats in a game of
tactical small-ball which ended in a ourish
to thrill the 150 fans on hand at San Bruno
Parks Lara Field.
With South City trailing by a run in its
final at-bat, Tommy Pagan reached third
base with one out on a wild pitch by Pacica
reliever Anthony Trujillo. But the right-
handed Trujillo bore down for the second
time in as many innings to induce two
straight groundouts to strand Pagan at third,
including the nal out of the season in
which rst baseman Brendan Mauer nabbed
a sharp grounder and beat Jesus Jimenez in a
footrace to rst to end it.
[The ending] was pretty exciting,
Pacifica manager Manny Alonzo said.
Weve been playing close games all year.
All that hard work, it paid off in that one
ground ball.
The win marks Pacicas rst Colt League
championship in Alonzos six years at the
helm of the 15 and 16-year-old summer-
league squad. Pacica last advanced to the
championship game in 2011 only to lose 2-
1 to San Bruno.
This years road to the championship was
chock full of close games for Pacica. After
downing Burlingame 6-4 in the opening
round of the playoffs June 23, Pacica went
on to defeat the South City Indians 4-2 June
26 to advance to Mondays championship
game.
This group of kids, weve struggled with
them all year trying to play defense,
Alonzo said. But the one thing is they
never quit and the last three games weve
peaked and started to play defense.
Indeed, Pacica committed just one error
Monday. It proved costly as, with Pacica
leading 3-1 in the sixth, shortstop Wi l l
Brazils elding error allowed Jimenez to
reach base to lead off the inning. Jimenez
scored from rst when Mudcats cleanup hit-
ter Raul Callero followed with an RBI dou-
ble which split the gap in right-center.
But Trujillo emerged in relief to shut the
door, recording two consecutive ground-
outs. Then with two outs, K.C. Blas walked

Right-hander Matt Lavorini earned the win in Pacicas 3-2 win over the South City Mudcats in Mondays Colt League championship game
at San Brunos Lara Field. Lavorini went ve-plus innings before turning it over to Anthony Trujillo, who earned a gritty save.
Pacifica claims Colts crown
P
enalty kicks have certainly been
in the spotlight in this edition of
the World Cup. Acontroversial
call Sunday against Mexico defender
Rafael Marquez on a foul against
Netherlands Arjen Robben in the penalty
box led to Hollands
game-winning goal
in stoppage time to
send the Dutch
through to the quar-
ternals.
It was certainly not
the rst and it de-
nitely wont be the
last questionable call
that results in a spot
kick. This is soccer.
It happens.
What galls many fans and critics
alike is the use of a penalty-kick
shootout to decide a winner after 90 min-
utes of regulation and 30 minutes of over-
time. Many like to use the examples of
using free throws to decide a NBAplayoff
game or a home run derby to crown a
baseball winner in postseason.
Basically, the suggestion is that it is so
easy to score a goal from 12 meters away
with only the goalkeeper standing
between two posts 24 feet apart.
The fact of the matter is, its not that
easy. Ask Chiles Gonzalo Jara, whose
spot kick clanged off the right post,
enabling host Brazil to escape with a
shootout win in its round-of-16 game to
send the Brazilians into the quarternals.
The problem with the basketball or
baseball comparison is that its not
exactly fair. Its comparing apples to
oranges. The difference is this: there is
no defender in basketball trying to pre-
vent a free throw from going in or a
pitcher trying to get a batter out in the
case of a home run contest. In a soccer
shootout, the goalkeeper is there to
defend the goal.
If you truly want to level the compari-
son, take the basketball scenario: how
about stationing a defender just outside
the key who is then allowed to try and
block the free throw attempt? In the base-
ball situation, how about Aroldis
Chapman and his 100 mph fastball used
as the pitcher in a home run derby?
Suddenly, neither scenario becomes all
that easy.
Im not a big fan of PKs to decide
games. But for the health of the players,
it seems the only logical way to do it.
You cant have these players, who are

DETROIT The Oakland Athletics had
never given up a grand slam when leading
by three runs in the bottom of the ninth
inning that is until Monday night.
Rajai Davis connected with one out in the
ninth, lifting the Detroit Tigers to a 5-4 vic-
tory over the As .
Thats a tough loss, Oakland manager
Bob Melvin said. You have to get all 27
outs. Weve come back and won games like
that, and now weve lost one.
Melvin gave the ball to closer Sean
Doolittle with a three-run lead, but he only
managed one out.
Nick Castellanos and Alex Avila started
the inning with singles.
Eugenio Suarez struck
out, but Doolittle (2-2)
walked Austin Jackson
just the second walk he
has issued this season
to load the bases.
Jackson fouled off three
straight 2-2 pitches
before taking a pair of
fastballs inside.
That was a hell of a battle, Doolittle
said. You could really see him shorten up
his swing with two strikes, and he did a real
good job.
Doolittle missed the strike zone with a
curveball, then hung another one over the
middle of the plate.
I just hung the crap out of it, he said. I
threw some good pitches, but I threw some
bad ones, and the last one cost us the game.
Davis didnt miss, hitting the ball out
down the left-eld line for his third career
grand slam and his rst game-ending homer.
That was amazing, he said. Austin had
a great at-bat, and then I got a pitch that was
middle or middle-in. It didnt do much. I was-
nt sure if I got enough it I was just hop-
ing the wind would blow it out.
Scott Kazmir left the game in the sixth,
one pitch after appearing to grab at his hip,
but Dan Otero replaced him and kept the
game tied through seven innings.
My calf just cramped up, Kazmir said. I
was OK until I tried to push off.
Cespedes also cramped up his left ham-
string and Melvin said he didnt expect
him to play on Tuesday.
Oakland broke a 1-1 tie in the eighth,
helped by a Tigers defensive mistake.
Yoenis Cespedes led off with a routine
grounder to short, but Suarezs throw sailed
well over Cabreras head at rst. Brandon
Moss followed with an RBI into the left-
center eld gap, and Sanchez walked Josh
Donaldson.
Joba Chamberlain came in and allowed a
single to Stephen Vogt, loading the bases.
Jed Lowrie made it 4-1 with a single to left,

on a 10-pitch at-bat and stole second. But
Trujillo stranded the potential tying and go-
ahead runs in scoring position by notching
his only strikeout of the game.
Trujillo saved it for Pacifica starting
pitcher Matt Lavorini, who went ve-plus
innings to earn the win.
Mudcats left-hander Nico Delgado took
the loss, allowing two runs through ve-
plus innings. The southpaw got into trouble
in the rst, as Pacica jumped on the board
early. Brazil led off the game with a walk.
Mills Notmeyer promptly bunted him to
second. Then Felix Aberouette scorched an
RBI single to center to score Brazil, giving
Pacica a 1-0 lead.
Lavorini followed with a double to put
runners at second and third, but Delgado
buckled down through the one-out jam to
strand the pair. The lefty did not allow
another runner to reach scoring position
while he was on the hill.
Mudcats manager Brian Ghilarducci has
been forced to manufacture pitching all sea-
son to compliment his slugging offense.
But Delgado emerged with a big-game per-
formance in the biggest game of the year.
He was going to be on a short leash but
he threw well and kept us in the game,
Ghilarducci said.
South City evened the score in the third.
With one out, Mudcats leadoff man Ben
Santana took an aggressive chance by tak-
ing two bases on a liner to right-center. The
gamble paid off as, after Santana ew into
second, he moved to third base on a ground-
out then scored on a solid RBI knock to cen-
ter by Jimenez.
But Pacica won by virtue of some tactical
baseball in the sixth. Aberouette drew a
leadoff walk to knock Delgado out of the
game. Facing Jimenez in relief, Lavorini
reached on an ineld hit into the 5.5 hole.
Mauer bunted both runners over. Then Nate
Rumb who had a modest 1 for 5 showing
throughout the playoffs entering into the
at-bat lifted a clutch sacrice y to plate
Aberouette.
I was just relaxed and trying to get my
pitch and drive it in the outeld. When I did,
it drove in a run, Rumb said. That was my
best at-bat (of the year) for sure.
Miguel Villabuena followed with a boom-
ing double to center to score Lavorini with a
critical insurance run. Villabuena was 2 for 3
in the game, and hit .444 (4 for 9) through-
out the playoffs. Lavorini was 3 for 4 in
Mondays championship nale.
The loss by the Mudcats, who came in
with a chance to repeat as Colt League
champs, ends a prominent run for South
City teams. With two teams in the Colt
League, the Industrial City has twice staked
its claim to the league title in recent years.
In 2013, the Mudcats won an all-South City
championship game against the Indians. In
2012, the Indians won the crown.
We had a great season this year, Pagan
said. We couldnt come up on top. We just
fell short.

Haren 1-hits
Tribe, put L.A.
into 1st place
By JOE RESNICK
ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES Dan
Haren pitched one-hit ball
over seven innings a
single that was awarded to
Michael Bourn after a
video review and rookie
Clint Robinson had a
pinch-hit RBI single in
the seventh as the Los
Angeles Dodgers opened
their interleague series
against the Cleveland Indians with a 1-0 victo-
ry on Monday night.
The defending NL West champion Dodgers
took over sole possession of rst place in the
division by a half-game over idle San
Francisco. The Giants led them by as many as 9
1-2 games as recently as June 8. Since then, Los
Angeles has gone 15-6 and San Francisco 4-15.
The Indians couldnt do a thing against Haren.
Haren struck out ve and walked one on the
11th anniversary of his major league debut,
getting through seven innings for just the
third time in 17 starts this season. The right-
hander ended a streak of nine consecutive out-
ings in which he allowed a home run, one shy
of his career-worst stretch in 2012.
Brian Wilson pitched a perfect eighth and
Kenley Jansen a 1-2-3 ninth for his 25th save.
Corey Kluber (7-6) allowed a run and six hits
over 6 2-3 innings and struck out ve. The 28-
year-old right-hander, who has spent all four of
his big league seasons with the Indians, came
in 6-0 with a 2.29 ERA in his six previous
interleague starts.
The Dodgers had runners at second and third
in the fourth inning when Kluber struck out
Andre Ethier and retired Juan Uribe on a yball.
Ethier came up again in the seventh and led
off with an opposite-eld triple off the glove
of left elder Michael Brantley on the warning
track. Two outs later, pinch-hitter Hanley
Ramirez was intentionally walked and
Robinson worked the count full before smack-
ing a single up the middle for his rst major
league hit and RBI.
Dodgers shortstop Miguel Rojas made a
diving stop of Bourns smash behind second
base and got the out call at rst base from rst
base umpire Adrian Johnson before Cleveland
manager Terry Francona successfully chal-
lenged the ruling.

SALVADOR, Brazil They know the
eyes of the United States will be on them
from thousands of miles away, and they say
they are ready.
The Americans try to reach the World Cup
quarternals for the rst time since 2002
when they play Belgium on Tuesday.
For some of the guys, its the last oppor-
tunity, so we have to make the most of it,
U.S. captain Clint Dempsey said. And Im
sure if we play to the best of our ability,
well get a positive result.
There were two bits of news on the eve of
the match. Jozy Altidore has recovered suf-
ciently from his left hamstring strain to be
available, although it appears he is unlikely
to start. The forward has not played since
the Americans June 16 opener, when he was
taken off on a stretcher during the rst half.
Just having him with us tomorrow is
huge, U.S. coach Jurgen Klinsmann said
Monday, adding Altidores time on the eld
depends on how much work is in his legs.
Klinsmann created a stir by saying he
isnt happy with FIFAs choice of referee,
Algerias Djamel Haimoudi. His nation was
eliminated by the U.S. in 2010, and Algeria
played in the same first-round group as
Belgium.
Is it a good feeling? No, Klinsmann said
at a news conference.
Belgium coach Marc Wilmots dismissed
Klinsmanns comments, saying: If we start
going into this, it is looking for excuses
ahead of the match.

BRASILIA, Brazil Paul Pogba scored
with a late header to nally break Nigerias
stubborn resistance and Joseph Yobo added
an own-goal as France won 2-0 to reach the
World Cup quarternals on Monday.
Nigeria goalkeeper Vincent Enyeama had
just made a superb save to tip over Karim
Benzemas header, but he apped at the ball
from the ensuing corner and Pogba pounced
in the 79th minute to nod in his rst goal of
the tournament.
Pogba atoned for a scrappy rst half in
which he gave the ball away carelessly and
placed a volley too close to Enyeama.
Scoring such a crucial goal will boost his
confidence heading into the last eight
against either Germany or Algeria, who
played their match later.
Yobo turned the ball into his own net in
stoppage time under pressure from France
substitute Antoine Griezmann who made
a big difference after replacing the ineffec-
tive Olivier Giroud in the 62nd.
At the final whistle, Frances relieved
players danced in front of their fans as
dreams of a repeat run to the nal just like
in 2006 moved a step closer.
France started slowly and nished strong-
ly in the second round match.
African champion Nigeria had a goal ruled
out for offside in the 19th minute after
Emmanuel Emenike poked home Ahmed
Musas cross from the left, but wasted a lot
of second-half possession.
After Griezmann came on, Benzema nal-
ly came alive in the 70th, opening up the
defense after a clever one-two with the
France substitute. After Enyeama blocked
Benzemas initial shot, his follow-up effort
was hacked clear by Victor Moses. Video
technology conrmed that the ball had not
crossed the line.
Nigeria chose a very audacious lineup
with four attacking players and found a lot
of space behind Frances fullbacks, with
right back Efe Ambrose causing problems
with his overlaps.
Pogbas tendency to try and hit perfect
through-balls worked against his team as he
gave the ball away four times inside the rst 10
minutes alone. He often seemed in two minds
and this only slowed down the French attacks.
France failed to show the attacking air of
previous games, with Giroud skewing a shot
wide early on from the edge of the penalty area.
Giroud also appeared to elbow John Obi
Mikel in an off-the ball incident, having done
the same in last weeks 0-0 draw with Ecuador
after coming on as a second-half substitute.
Two chances were missed late in the half.
Full-back Mathieu Debuchy found space
on the right side of the area in the 40th after
collecting a pass from Mathieu Valbuena,
but his attempt smacked into the back of a
steward. Emenike saw his sharp drive from
the edge of the area palmed away by France
goalkeeper Hugo Lloris, with no Nigeria
player near the loose ball.
Center half Raphael Varane added much
composure to a nervous-looking France
team and hurt himself heading away a cross
before it could reach Emenike in the 53rd.
With French nerves fraying, midfielder
Blaise Matuidi was booked for a heavy chal-
lenge on Ogenyi Onazi, who was replaced
by Ruben Gabriel in the 59th.
The atmosphere quietened at the Estadio
Nacional in Brasilia, with the pockets of
French fans watching silently on as Nigeria
started to dominate possession. Coach
Didier Deschamps then made a key change,
taking Giroud off and bringing on
Griezmann, freeing Benzema to play
through the middle.
But Nigeria continued to push forward,
and Lloris did well to block a shot from
Peter Odemwingie, who was Nigerias most
dangerous player making runs from deep.
Center half Laurent Kocielny made a vital
interception to block Musas dangerous cross
from the right with 20 minutes left.
Then, it was all France as Griezmann
boosted the attacks with his mobility and
technique, and he almost made it 2-0 with an
effort in the 85th that Enyeama tipped over
brilliantly. Instead, it fell to Yobo to inad-
vertently add Frances second goal.

PORTO ALEGRE, Brazil Substitute Andre
Schuerrle and Mesut Ozil scored in extra time
Monday to lead Germany over an aggressive
Algeria 2-1 and into the World Cup quarter-
nals.
Thomas Mueller provided a cross from the
left ank that was slightly behind Schuerrle.
The Germany forward dragged his left leg and
backheeled the ball into the far corner in the
92nd minute, leaving goalkeeper Rais
Mbolhi with no chance.
Ozil added the second in the 120th, and sub-
stitute Abdelmoumene Djabou pulled one back
in injury time for Algeria.
Three-time champion Germany, which has
now advanced past the second round at nine
consecutive World Cups, will next face 1998
winner France on Friday at
the Maracana Stadium in
Rio de Janeiro.
With the temperature a
chilly 14 degrees Celsius
(57 degrees Fahrenheit)
and a light rain falling at
times, the pace was high at
the Estadio Beira-Rio but
the goals didnt come until
the end.
Ozil thought he had put the result out of
reach when he pounded in a rebound after a
shot from Schuerrle was cleared off the line by
defender Esseid Belkalem, but Djabou
volleyed in a minute later to make the last sec-
onds count.
Perhaps inspired by the Disgrace of Gijon
at the 1982 World Cup, when Germany and
Austria supposedly conspired to oust Algeria
in the group stage, the northern African
nation outmatched Germanys intensity for
long stretches in an entertaining match.
Algeria was playing in the second round of
the World Cup for the rst time and dominated
early on. Agoal from Islam Slimani was waved
off for offside in the 17th, one of many oppor-
tunities for the Algeria striker.
At the start of the second half, Germany put
Schuerrle on for Mario Goetze in an attacking
mideld and came out better organized.
In the 55th, Germany captain Philipp Lahm
unleashed a hard shot that an outstretched Rais
did well to push wide with his ngertips.
Still, Algeria continued to produce danger-
ous counterattacks. In the 72nd, Neuer had to
come out of his area to head away the danger
with Slimani chasing.
In the 88th, Germanys inability to nd the
target turned theatrical for a moment when
Mueller appeared to fall during a free kick.

AP source: Kidd to Bucks
after Nets agree to deal
NEWYORK A per-
son with knowledge of
the details says the
Bucks and Brooklyn
Nets have agreed to a
deal allowing Jason
Kidd to become
Milwaukees coach. The
Nets will receive a sec-
ond-round draft pick in
2015 and 2019.
The person spoke to The Associated Press
on Monday on condition of anonymity
because the deal has not been announced.
Kidd went 44-38 in his only season as
Nets coach, but then sought control of the
basketball operations department and was
denied. The Nets gave him permission to
talk to other teams about a job.

MILLBRAE I
recently read an
article in the trade
journal American
Funeral Director
about the famous
quote by the late
Sir William Ewart
Gladstone, the celebrated English four term
Prime Minister who was known for his
colorful oratories and speeches on the floor
of Parliament. This 19
th
century statesman
was renowned for many unique sayings, but
he is most noted among Funeral Directors
for saying this: Show me the manner in
which a nation cares for its dead, and I will
measure with mathematical exactness the
tender mercies of its people, their respect for
the laws of the land and their loyalty to high
ideals. This quote is very lyrical and well
thought out. It has become a long time
custom for many Funeral Homes to display
this quote on a plaque for all to see. The
meaning is obvious and is a direct
comparison between caring for our fallen
loved ones and the way we care for
ourselves, our community and our society.
To many observers it may appear that
weve lost the motivation to care for our
loved ones in a proper way, and that our
society has become misguided. Taking into
consideration the way our government
leaders sometimes act, without the maturity
to function unselfishly, is disturbing, and the
reasons they got elected can be alarming.
Also, in the eyes of logical people violence
should be against our nature, but seemingly
is embedded in our way of life. It is topsy-
turvy for a culture to view cruelty and tribal
brutality as a form of normality, and for love
to be viewed as an obscenity.
Yes, some say our society is falling apart,
but looking at the overall big picture I see
most people yearning to live a peaceful and
courteous life with those around them. Most
people are not violent. Most people want to
be accepted. Most people want to be happy.
Remember that hate is taught.
Wouldnt it make more sense for love to
be taught? Teaching youngsters to be
curious and to enjoy the differences of
those around them would be a good start.
They say that its hard to teach old dogs new
tricks. But old dogs will not be here forever,
and with effort every young dog could be
cultivated with ideals for supporting others
with respect. Putting this into practice may
seem daunting, but its not impossible and
over time could be valuable for our future.
Humanity has always been burdened with
a good percentage of bad guys. But, all in
all, the ideals that the majority of us value
and strive to promote, life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness, are shared in our core.
Going back to Gladstones quote, I see
the vast majority of the families we serve at
the CHAPEL OF THE HIGHLANDS
deeply committed to doing the right thing
for their loved ones. They come to us with a
desire for closure and to enact final tributes
for those theyve cherished. Whether public
or private their feelings are similar, and
showing one last bit of proper care is their
goal. For me this is a sign of hope, showing
that overall we are a society of good people
with a nature to live in harmony and peace.
If you ever wish to discuss cremation,
funeral matters or want to make pre-
planning arrangements please feel free to
call me and my staff at the CHAPEL OF
THE HIGHLANDS in Millbrae at (650)

in a fair and helpful manner. For more info

but Phil Coke replaced Chamberlain and
almost got out of the inning as quickly as
possible.
Castellanos grabbed Alberto Callaspos
grounder, stepped on third and threw to Ian
Kinsler at second for a double play. Kinsler
relayed the ball to first, hoping for a 5-4-3
triple play, but Callaspo beat the throw.
Detroits rally took Anibal Sanchez off
the hook he now hasnt lost in his last
10 starts. Blaine Hardy (1-0) picked up his
first career victory with a scoreless top of
the ninth.
Sanchez, who struck out his 1,000th
career batter in the fourth, lost his shutout
in the sixth on Lowries RBI single, but
Miguel Cabrera tied the game in the bot-
tom of the inning, crushing a 2-2 change-
up into the Oakland bullpen beyond the
left-centerfield fence.
NOTES: Tigers DH Victor Martinez was a
late scratch because of a sore side, and was
replaced by J.D. Martinez.
The Athletics have only allowed three
game-ending grand slams since World War
II, with two coming against Detroit. The
first for the Tigers was in 1983, when
Lance Parrish hit one off Jeff Jones, who is
now Detroits pitching coach.
1930, a 3-0 win by the Americans.
A lot more people are following now. The
U.S. averaged more than 18 million viewers on
ESPN and Spanish-language Univision for its
three rst-round games, and viewing parties are
scheduled for Tuesday ranging from Solider
Field in Chicago to Veterans Park in Redondo
Beach, California.
The country is paying attention in a way
that its never done before, and we have a
chance to make some history, U.S. Soccer
Federation President Sunil Gulati said.
President Barack Obama even watched last
week from Air Force One.
Avictory against Belgium would put the U.S.
in a Saturday quarternal against Argentina or
Switzerland. With kickoff at 4 p.m. EDT, peo-
ple are expected to leave work early, take
extended lunch breaks and sneak looks at
online streams from their mobile phones and
ofce desktops.
It means a lot to us, the energy that comes
from the United States, said Klinsmann, the
former German star striker who moved to
California in 1998. You see where the game is
going in the United States. You cant stop it
anymore. Its breaking through.
The 13th-ranked Americans are in the knock-
out rounds of consecutive World Cups for the
rst time. Belgium, ranked 11th after missing
the last two World Cups, has won three straight
games at soccers showcase for the rst time.
But the Red Devils are banged up. Central
defender Vincent Kompany (strained left
groin) is questionable and left back Thomas
Vermaelen (right hamstring) is out.
Midelders Moussa Dembele and Marouane
Fellaini known for his mop of bushy dark
hair have been slowed by calf injuries.
Fellaini is a former Everton teammate of
American goalkeeper Tim Howard, who
played with Belgian forwards Romelu Lukaku
and Kevin Mirallas last season. Howard is
also familiar with Eden Hazard, who was crit-
icized for his play during the rst round
despite setting up go-ahead goals against
Russia and Algeria.
Dempsey, 31, and 32-year-old defender
DaMarcus Beasley are unlikely to be on the
2018 roster. Howard, 35, hasnt committed to
another four-year cycle.
Belgium is quite familiar with Klinsmann: He
scored in Germanys 3-2 win over Belgium at
Chicagos Soldier Field in the second round of
the 1994 World Cup.
Klinsmann and Wilmots are friends, too.
They had scheduled a training session between
the teams June 12, but Wilmots called it off
because he didnt want to get caught in Sao
Paulos trafc jams.
The Americans know they have to boost
their offense, which was next to last in attacks
during the rst round.
Its all about who wants it more, Beasley
said. You cant leave anything on the eld for
these type of games.

Former Mets GM
Frank Cashen dies at 88
NEWYORK Frank Cashen, the general
manager who wore a signature bow tie and
fashioned a New York Mets team that rol-
licked its way to the 1986 World Series
championship, died Monday. He was 88.
He died at Memorial Hospital in Easton,
Maryland, the Mets said.
Cashen was a longtime sports writer in
his Baltimore hometown before joining the
Orioles and eventually becoming their GM.
The Orioles won two titles while Cashen
worked for them, but it was in New York
where he put his stamp on a franchise. Hired
in 1980, Cashen transformed a last-place
team into a team that became the most dom-
inant force in baseball.
Cashen made the trades that brought star
rst baseman Keith Hernandez and future
Hall of Famer Gary Carter to the Mets, and
oversaw the draft picks of Darryl Strawberry
and Dwight Gooden.
He also hired his former second baseman
in Baltimore, Davey Johnson, to be the
Mets manager.
In 1986, the Mets powered their way to
108 victories, won a tough playoff series
with Houston and then rallied past Boston
to win the World Series.
Former Dodgers pitcher
Bobby Castillo dies at 59
LOS ANGELES Bobby Castillo, a for-
mer Dodgers and Minnesota Twins pitcher
credited with teaching Fernando Valenzuela
how to throw a screwball, died Monday in a
Los Angeles hospital after a battle with can-
cer, the team announced. He was 59.
Castillo, also affectionately known as
Babo, pitched for the Dodgers from 1977-
81, including in the 1981 National League
Championship Series and the 1981 World
Series, and in 1985, his last season in the
majors. The right-hander was with the Twins
from 1982 to 1984.
Valenzuela called Castillo a great team-
mate and friend in a statement released
through the Dodgers, adding: Ill always be
grateful for his inuence on my pitching.
Castillo made his major league debut for
the Dodgers on Sept. 19, 1977, retiring
Hall of Famer Johnny Bench for his rst big
league out.
Funeral services are pending.

LONDON As Serena Williams began to
fall behind in what would become her earli-
est Wimbledon exit in nearly a decade, her
coach could tell something was awry.
Not the so-so serving. Or the bad back-
hands. This was a larger problem.
Right now, she doesnt have her usual
ability to respond and turn matches around,
said Patrick Mouratoglou, who has worked
with Williams since 2012. It was obvious
when she trailed 3-0 in the second set.
Nothing happened.
Unable to get back on track once she no
longer had control of the match, ve-time
Wimbledon champion Williams lost to
25th-seeded Alize Cornet of France 1-6, 6-
3, 6-4 on Saturday in the third round, the lat-
est in a recent series of surprising Grand
Slam defeats.
If Im not playing a great, great match,
these girls, when they play me, they play as
if theyre on the ATP Tour, Williams said,
rolling her eyes.
She hadnt left Wimbledon so soon since
2005, also beaten in the third round. The
No. 1-ranked and top-seeded Williams owns
17 Grand Slam titles, one fewer than
Martina Navratilova and Chris Evert, but
has departed before the quarternals at four
of the past ve majors. There were fourth-
round losses at Wimbledon last year and the
Australian Open in January, and a second-
round loss at the French Open in May.
It might be a bit premature to talk about
her decline, but when she plays someone
who nds the right tactics, she looks a bit
lost on the court, Cornet said. In my
opinion, there are more and more players
understanding how to play her.
Cornet also beat the 32-year-old American
at the Dubai Championships in February,
and watched video clips of that triumph
before playing Saturday.
I just knew that I could do it, because I did
it once, Cornet said.
Still, this result was rather unexpected,
given that Cornet never had been past the
third round at Wimbledon, and only once
before reached a majors fourth round.
I cannot say that I played my best tennis
today, really, Cornet said.
Perhaps, but it was good enough. On
match point, after one last drop shot drew a
netted response from Williams, Cornet
pounded a st on her chest, hopped around
Court 1, then knelt to kiss the turf.
Its very symbolic, because it means,
Now I love you grass, and I didnt before,
said Cornet, who had been 0-13 against top-
20 opponents at majors.
Saturdays match was halted in the third
game because of showers. When they
returned about 4 1/2 hours later the rain
delay killed me a little bit, Cornet said
Williams was terric, reeling off ve games
to grab the rst set.
Then everything changed, because
Williams couldnt nd the mark. She n-
ished with 29 unforced errors, 11 more than
Cornet. Two particular strokes let Williams
down: Her serve, with seven double-faults
and ve breaks; and her backhand, with 12
unforced errors.
I dont really know what I did wrong,
said a blank-faced Williams, whose sister
Venus lost Friday. Usually I do. Usually I
know I did this, this, and that.
It was by far the most signicant outcome
on a day full of starts and stops.
Three other past Wimbledon champions
won on Centre Court, where the roof was
closed and soccer star David Beckham was
in the Royal Box: Rafael Nadal, Roger
Federer and Maria Sharapova.
For his third match in a row, Nadal
dropped the rst set, this time beating 63rd-
ranked Mikhail Kukushkin of Kazakhstan
6-7 (4), 6-1, 6-1, 6-1.
All his shots just started to be much more
hard, powerful and more aggressive,
Kukushkin said. It was like a different
player.
Sharapova trailed 3-1, then won the next
11 games to top 44th-ranked Alison Riske
of the United States 6-3, 6-0.
Federer, who has collected seven of his 17
major trophies at Wimbledon, never faced
trouble and eliminated 35th-ranked
Santiago Giraldo of Colombia 6-3, 6-1, 6-
3.
Nadal next faces 19-year-old Australian
Nick Kyrgios; Federer meets No. 23 Tommy
Robredo; and No. 8 Milos Raonic, only the
second Canadian man in the Open era to get
to Wimbledons fourth round, plays either
No. 10 Kei Nishikori or Simone Bolelli,
whose match was suspended because of dark-
ness.
Cornets fourth-round opponent when the
tournament resumes Monday after the tradi-
tional middle Sunday off is No. 13 Eugenie
Bouchard, a 20-year-old Canadian who was a
seminalist at the years rst two majors.
It shows all of you who asked me if Im
ready to play Serena in Round 4, Bouchard
said. Thats one of the reasons I dont look
far ahead.

The San Francisco Giants free
fall seems to be complete as the
nine-and-a-half-game lead they
had over the Dodgers at the begin-
ning of June is now gone. The
only question is: can they turn it
around? That remains to be seen.
Despite losing 15 of their last
19, the Giants record during June
was only 10-16. Given how
poorly they played last month, a
10-16 record doesnt really look
all that bad.
Heres the good news: the start-
ing pitching, which was shaky
for most of the season, appears to
have rebounded in the last week,
with all ve starters giving the
team quality starts. Another good
aspect is Buster Posey has appar-
ently found his swing as his bat-
ting average creeps toward the
.300 mark.
The bad news? The clutch hit-
ting has disappeared. All those
two-out knocks that drove in
runs? Gone. The teams newfound
power? Also seems to have aban-
doned them. The bullpen, the
group that carried the team in the
seasons rst two months, is in
shambles, with closer Sergi o
Romo embodying those prob-
lems.
Injures to Brandon Belt and
Angel Pagan have been bigger
than initially thought. I still
cant get over how bad the Giants
are without Pagan at the top of
the lineup. We saw it last year and
its happening again this season.
All that being said, however,
the Giants are still 10 games over
.500 and are still, technically, in
rst place, just percentage points
ahead of Los Angeles, who has
played two more games. Now the
season enters to dog days of sum-
mer. Lets see if the Giants can
turn things around in July before
giving up on them.

Boy, the way he is rising up the
ranks, Jason Kidd may be a NBA
team owner in a couple of years.
Kidd, who has been fawned over
since being a freshman at St.
Josephs High School in
Alameda, retired following the
2012-13 NBAseason and walked
right into the role of head coach
with the Brooklyn Nets this past
season, without a lick of coach-
ing experience.
After guiding the Nets to their
rst playoff appearance since
2007, Kidd decided he wanted
more power within the organiza-
tion, with reports indicating he
wanted to run basketball opera-
tions. When the Nets billionaire
owner Mikhail Prokhorov balked,
Kidd instigated a trade to
Milwaukee. Apparently the Bucks
only got Kidd to coach the team,
but rest assured it wont be long
before he wants more power.

Sports Brief
By Doug Ferguson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BETHESDA, Md. Erik
Comptons runner-up nish in the
U.S. Open should be enough to get
him into the next major champi-
onship.
With only two weeks remaining in
British Open qualifying, there will
not be enough players to ll the 156-
man eld at Royal Liverpool. The
R&A then turns to an alternate list
that is almost certain to accommo-
date Compton, the two-time heart
transplant recipient who is having
his best year.
The alternate list is based on next
weeks world ranking.
With at least 12 spots available,
Compton currently is No. 4 on the
list and unlikely to fall much further.
Others closing in on spot, based
on this weeks ranking, are Kevin
Stadler, J.B. Holmes, K.J. Choi,
Charles Howell III and Brooks
Koepka, who tied for fourth at the
U.S. Open. Freddie Jacobson current-
ly is at No. 8. The Swede squandered a
chance to earn one of four spots
available to top nishers Sunday in
the Quicken Loans National.
As of Monday, 121 players who
intend to compete July 17-20 at
Royal Liverpool are exempt or have
qualied. There are 12 spots avail-
able Tuesday at four British links in
local nal qualifying. Eleven spots
have been set aside for leading play-
ers in the next two PGA Tour and
European Tour events.
That would put the eld at 144
players.
The Open changed its internation-
al qualifying this year, eliminating
the 36-hole qualiers in Europe and
America and offering spots to top
players in tour events.
Even so, that doesnt appear to be
the reason for the shortfall.
Several players have qualied in
more than one category. Some exam-
ples:
Martin Kaymer was exempt as
top 50 in the world and from winning
The Players Championship and U.S.
Open this year, and the PGA
Championship in 2010.
The winners of the BMWPGA
Championship on the Europe Tour
and The Players Championship on
the PGA Tour are exempt for three
years. All were already eligible
Luke Donald, Matteo Manassero and
Rory McIlroy in Europe, and
Kaymer, Tiger Woods and Matt
Kuchar on the PGATour.
John Senden and George
Coetzee each earned spots from
International Final Qualifying in
Africa and Australia in the start of the
year. Both later became exempt in
other category (top 50 for Senden,
top 20 in the Race to Dubai for
Coetzee).

Can e-cigs save
smokers money?
By Michael Felberbaum
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
RICHMOND, Va. Its difcult to say yet if electronic
cigarettes are less harmful than regular re-and-tobacco
smokes, but they can save smokers hundreds or even thou-
sands of dollars a year.
Some in the growing industry are touting the battery-
powered nicotine sticks as a way for smokers to save money
in the face of rising taxes and prices for tobacco cigarettes.
But it may not stay that way for long as states are increas-
ingly looking to tax e-cigarettes as they tax other tobacco
products.
Alook at the costs of smokes and e-cigarettes shows the
savings can vary a lot, depending on state cigarette taxes
and the brand and style of e-cigarette used. But the bottom
line is that e-cigarettes can generally make an expensive
addiction cheaper.
A note on health: None of this takes into consideration
the potential costs of any health effects from nicotine
addiction, which can be huge. Clearly, the way to save the
most money is to kick nicotine entirely. And taking up
either habit for the rst time isnt going to be good for your
wallet.
THE BASICS OF E-CIGARETTES: The devices heat a
liquid nicotine solution, creating vapor that users inhale.
Smokers like them because the vapor looks like smoke but
doesnt contain the thousands of chemicals, tar or odor of
regular cigarettes.
Scientists havent nished much research on e-cigarettes,
and the studies that have been done on their safety or abili-
ty to help smokers quit have been inconclusive.
Some e-cigarette users, known as vapers, use e-ciga-
rettes as a way to quit tobacco, or to cut down. Others want
to be able to get their nicotine x in places where regular

cigarettes arent allowed.
But cost is increasingly becoming part of
the equation as the average pack of ciga-
rettes around the country tops $6.15,
according to the Federation of Tax
Administrators.
DOING THE MATH: Smoking is
expensive. Apack-a-day smoker can spend
anywhere from $1,500 a year in a low-tax
state, all the way to about $5,000 in New
York City, where a pack can run $13. On
average across the country, the tab comes to
about $2,250 a year.
The rst consideration for someone look-
ing to switch is whether to use disposable
models or a rellable. The rellable models
promise more savings in exchange for a
bigger up-front investment.
Most disposable e-cigarettes say theyre
equivalent to about 2 packs of cigarettes and
cost $6 to $10 apiece, meaning theyd cost
about $1,100 to $1,800 a year, for savings
of several hundred dollars a year.
The savings are bigger for rechargeable e-
cigarettes with disposable cartridges. For
an initial investment between $10 and $35
and cartridges that cost $2.50 apiece, smok-
ers in an average state would save almost
$1,800 a year.
Theres also a more advanced option for
the dedicated vaper: a tank system that is
lled with vials of avored nicotine mix-
ture. They cost more up-front, from $35 up
to about $200, but $8 worth of liquid can
last about 10 days. That promises savings
of up to $1,900 a year for the average smok-
er.
The numbers for an individual smoker can
vary signicantly depending on their pre-
ferred cigarette brand, where they live, the
e-cigarette brand they choose and how much
liquid nicotine or cartridges they buy at a
time.
WHAT VAPERS SAY: Cigarettes were
getting horribly expensive. ... Ive thrown
endless thousands of dollars away, said 52-
year-old Jim Craig, of Salt Lake City, who
switched to an e-cigarette last year after
smoking since he was 18.
Craig, who was spending upward of $200
per month on cigarettes, said he now spends
about $45 a month with his e-cigarette after
an initial investment of $200 for a
rechargeable battery and refillable tank.
Hes been able to stash $100 per month in a
savings account.
What were going to do with that money
down the road, I dont know, he said. I
may save it for retirement ... or we might
decide to take a vacation or something like
that.
THE FUTURE: The savings may not
last. While many vapers just pay sales
taxes, states like Minnesota and North
Carolina place additional taxes e-cigarettes
and liquid nicotine. Other states have con-
sidered such taxes. Restrictions proposed
by the Food and Drug Administration in
April also may push costs higher as compa-
nies comply with new rules.
On the other hand, heavy competition
among e-cigarette sellers could push prices
lower as well, especially as the big tobacco
makers try to get into the business.

was created as part of a legal settlement and
cannot therefore be altered. On Monday, he
said hed be willing to change his mind on
abandonment if the city and school could
clear up misconceptions about what the
vote is and rst evaluate the citys general
plan. The council should not be swayed by
the districts timeline, he said.
The question of who should decide North
Crestviews fate drew a large crowd.
Meeting attendance spilled into two over-
ow rooms and many came with stickers or
signs imploring stop the swap and let us
vote.
Prior to voting, Grassilli said he could see
a four-month campaign leading up to a
November election being very divisive in
the city of San Carlos pitting groups
against one another.
Had voters been allowed to weigh in and
agreed in November to rezone the North
Crestview site, the tentative deal between
the city and district called for the building
of a new Charter Learning Center on the
land. In return, the district would have given
the city approximately 4 acres on the back-
side of Tierra Linda, a 2.9-acre open space
piece adjacent to Heather Elementary
School currently used as a dog park and $1.5
million to invest in a city-owned athletic
eld at Tierra Linda. If any of the three
parcels in play were ever used or sold for
development, the city and school would
have split the prot s.
Grassilli said the 50-50 split proposal
was troubling to him because the value of
the land traded may not be equal. The sale
may have left one entity reaping a better
nancial windfall.
School ofcials say they cannot use the
Tierra Linda land they own because they pre-
fer a separate campus and trafc is already
congested there.
Ofcials from both the city and district
hustled to reach a tentative deal so that resi-
dents werent weighing in blind on the
rezoning issue. However, several speakers
said even with an advisory measure, there
was nothing to guarantee the land, once
rezoned, wasnt sold or given an alternative
use.
Resident Bob Black called the possibility
highly unlikely but said the resolution as
written left the door open.
That is the essence of a disaster, he said.
Tamara Galanter, an attorney for the
opposing group Save North Crestview
Park, told the council the proposed moved
was not just a bad idea and bad policy but
also illegal because the city needs an envi-
ronmental review before going to voters.
She also argued that the council must aban-
don the park if voters lean that direction
which left last nights meeting its only time
to have a say.
Really, this is your last opportunity to
make a decision, Galanter said.
City attorney Greg Rubens said there is
nothing in the law that prevents the city
from putting the land back into park use.
Many who favored the land swap said they
understand neighbors opposition but said
that the bottom line is there is nowhere else
available to build a school in San Carlos.
Some who opposed said they understand the
need for a school but said the steep location
is not the spot.
Johnson said both perspectives are valid.
I think reasonable people can disagree
on this, Johnson said, adding that people
have a fundamental right to vote.

available to religious-oriented, not-for-prof-
it corporations.
Those groups can tell the government that
providing the coverage violates their reli-
gious beliefs. At that point, creating a buffer,
their insurer or a third-party administrator
takes on the responsibility of paying for the
birth control. The employer does not have to
arrange the coverage or pay for it. Insurers
get reimbursed by the government through
credits against fees owed under other provi-
sions of the health care law.
That accommodation is the subject of sep-
arate legal challenges, and the court said
Monday that prot-seeking companies could
not assert religious claims in such a situa-
tion.
Justice Anthony Kennedy, who was part of
the majority, also wrote separately to say the
administration can solve its problem easily.
The accommodation works by requiring
insurance companies to cover, without cost
sharing, contraception coverage for female
employees who wish it, Kennedy said. He
said that arrangement does not impinge on
the plaintiffs religious beliefs.
Houses of worship and other religious
institutions whose primary purpose is to
spread the faith are exempt from the require-
ment to offer birth control.
In a dissent she read aloud from the bench,
Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg called the deci-
sion potentially sweeping because it min-
imizes the governments interest in uniform
compliance with laws affecting the work-
place. And it discounts the disadvantages
religion-based opt-outs impose on others, in
particular, employees who do not share their
employers religious beliefs, Ginsburg
said.
Leaders of womens rights groups blasted
the decision by ve male justices, in the
words of Cecile Richards, president of the
Planned Parenthood Action Fund.

Guideline says most healthy
women can skip pelvic exam
By Lauran Neergaard
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON No more dreaded pelvic exam? New
guidelines say most healthy women can skip the yearly rit-
ual.
Routine pelvic exams dont benet women who have no
symptoms of disease and who arent pregnant, and they can
cause harm, the American College of Physicians said
Monday as it recommended that doctors quit using them as a
screening tool.
Its part of a growing movement to evaluate whether many
longtime medical practices are done more out of habit than
necessity, and the guideline is sure to be controversial.
Scientic evidence just doesnt support the benet of
having a pelvic exam every year, said guideline coauthor
Dr. Linda Humphrey of the Portland Veterans Affairs Medical
Center and Oregon Health & Science University.
There will be women who are relieved, and there are
women who really want to go in and talk with their doctor
about it and will choose to continue this, she added.
The recommendations arent binding to doctors or
insurers.
Indeed, a different doctors group, the American College
of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, still recommends year-
ly pelvic exams, even as it acknowledges a lack of evidence
supporting, or refuting, them.
Pelvic exams have long been considered part of a well-
woman visit, and some 62 million were performed in the
United States in 2010, the latest available data.
Heres what put the test under the microscope: Pap smears
that check for cervical cancer used to be done yearly but now
are recommended only every three to ve years. So if women
werent going through that test every year, did they still
need the pelvic exam that traditionally accompanied it?
During a pelvic exam, a doctor feels for abnormalities in
the ovaries, uterus and other pelvic organs. But two years
ago, scientists at the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention reported that the internal exams werent a good
screening tool for ovarian cancer and shouldnt be required
before a woman was prescribed birth control pills.
The American College of Physicians, specialists in inter-
nal medicine, took a broader look.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LONDON In the past decade, billions of dollars have
been spent trying to save the lives of mothers in develop-
ing countries using strategies usually inexpensive drugs
deemed essential by the U.N. health agency.
Yet two large analyses of maternal health programs
including one conducted by the U.N. itself report that the
efforts appeared almost useless, raising troubling questions
about why all that money was spent.
While critics are calling for the pricey global initiatives
to be signicantly overhauled, the programs are still being
implemented despite little proof they work. The practices
mainly involve things like ensuring women giving birth
get cheap drugs such as magnesium sulphate to treat labor
complications or pre-emptive antibiotics for those getting
a cesarean section.
Even public health ofcials acknowledge they were taken
aback by the studies.
Nobody could have been more surprised than I was when
we got the results, said Dr. Omrana Pasha of Aga Khan
University in Pakistan, who led a study of maternal health
interventions in six countries in Latin America, Africa and
Asia.
In clinical medicine, we would not prescribe a drug
unless multiple trials show that it works, she added. The
FDA wont allow a drug to be marketed without that evi-
dence. But things are different in public health.
At an international meeting of U.N. partners starting
Monday in South Africa, health ofcials are getting ready to
ask donors for even more money to pour into maternal
health programs. Since 2009, the U.S. has invested more
than $13 billion in maternal and child survival, hoping to
save lives by supporting high-impact health interven-
tions.
According to the research papers, including one done in
30 countries that tracked more than 300,000 women, scien-
tists found no link between the supposedly life-saving
interventions and the death rates of women giving birth.
Areas that used the interventions didnt have better survival
rates for mothers than areas that didnt .
The two papers published last year are the biggest to
assess the effectiveness of maternal health strategies,
although smaller studies have previously suggested the
methods help. But they gained little traction, perhaps
because there doesnt appear to be an easy x.
Experts, meanwhile, are largely stumped as to why their
methods failed to prevent deaths.
We assume that if women get these things, they will be
saved. But its too simple to say one plus one equals two,
said Dr. Marleen Temmerman, director of WHOs maternal
health department.
She isnt convinced the interventions dont work. She
suspects there were problems implementing the strategies.
Maybe the health facility has the medicine, but the man
who has the key to the cupboard is gone, she suggested.
Temmerman also said it would be dangerous if donors
abruptly slashed their support for maternal health initia-
tives.
The message is not to stop investing, its to invest
money more wisely, she said.
Some experts said existing plans should be adjusted.
These essential interventions are important but they are
not enough, said Sandrine Simon, a public health adviser
at Doctors of the World charity. This is about more than
buying the right medicines.
But others said major changes were required to save more
women.
We need to be more honest and serious about past failures
otherwise we will keep making the same mistakes, said
Bill Easterly, an economist at New York University.
Studies question U.N. health
strategies to save mothers
For symptom-free women, years of medical studies show
routine pelvic exams arent useful to screen for ovarian or
other gynecologic cancers, they dont reduce deaths, and
there are other ways, such as urine tests, to detect such
problems as sexually transmitted infections,the doctorsgroup
reported in the journal Annals of Internal Medicine.
In clinical medicine, we would
not prescribe a drug unless multiple trials
show that it works. ...The FDA wont allow a
drug to be marketed without that evidence.
But things are different in public health.

Hillsborough police Capt. Doug
Davis.
Hernandez stole items from a car
parked in the driveway and gained
access into the home from a garage
door opener left in the car, according
to police.
Asuspect has also been identied in
connection with at least one of three
residential burglaries that occurred in
Hillsborough on Tuesday, June 24,
Davis said.
Burglars who are taking advantage
of unlocked doors, windows and
garages, have overtly targeted homes
south of State Route 92 recently, said
Sheriffs Office Deputy Rebecca
Rosenblatt.
Throughout June, there have been a
total of 25 residential burglaries or
attempted burglaries just between San
Carlos, Woodside, Portola Valley and
the unincorporated areas of Redwood
City and Menlo Park, Rosenblatt said.
Last week alone, there were 11 resi-
dential burglaries and attempts in
these cities the Sheriffs Office
patrols, Rosenblatt said.
Its an unusual increase from previ-
ous years and in June 2013, there were
just 15 throughout the same area,
Rosenblatt said.
Although sheriffs deputies are still
investigating the incidents, the cir-
cumstances of the crimes are similar
and indicate it may be the work of the
same people, Rosenblatt said.
The commonality that were seeing
is its usually unlocked windows,
unlocked doors, unlocked garage
doors, Rosenblatt said. Its kind of
like why people that live in a certain
area go to a certain grocery market; so
its whats convenient for them. So for
some reason, these individuals have
found this portion of the community
attractive for this.
The criminals are using the common
tactic of knocking on front doors and
waiting to see if anyone is home
before walking around and checking
for unlocked entrances, Rosenblatt
said.
Generally speaking, most residen-
tial burglaries occur during the day as
criminals assume most people are at
work or school, Rosenblatt said.
Burglars may also be taking advantage
of people gone on summer vacation,
Rosenblatt said.
Two of the three Hillsborough
homes that were burglarized last
Tuesday were broken into through
smashed windows, according to
police. The suspect that is currently in
custody was apprehended by another
law enforcement agency in Santa Clara
County on an unrelated charge and a
search of motel room uncovered prop-
erty that had been stolen from one of
the Hillsborough burglaries, Davis
said.
It is unlikely that this suspect and
Hernandez were acting alone and the
investigation is still ongoing, Davis
said.
Residents are urged to protect them-
selves by securing their homes before
leaving and immediately reporting any
suspicious people or behavior to
police.
Were just really asking people to
be vigilant on closing windows and
doors and even locking doggie doors
and so forth, Rosenblatt said.
Because its those little things that
could make the difference.

saw increases although not all were
equally improved. San Bruno had an 8
percent change on one end of the spec-
trum while South San Francisco posted
a 4.43 percent hike on the other.
The roll is actually $1.9 billion less
than previously estimated because the
inflation factor was .454 percent
which is only the seventh time since
Proposition 13 passed that it fell less
than 2 percent. Most property owners
will see their assessments increase
only slightly over last year due to the
factor, Church said.
The unsecured roll includes business
and personal property including air
transportation property at San
Francisco International Airport. That
portion of the roll had a 2 percent, or
nearly $171 million, increase in value
from last year.
All of this spells good news for the
county and its special districts, cities
and school districts who share 1 per-
cent of the rolls $1.65 billion value.
The countys share will be roughly 22
percent or $363 million.
Church chalked up the growth to the
areas strong real estate markets.
The number of sales remains high
and new construction has more than
doubled from two years ago, restoring
most of the value to the roll that was
lost during the Great Recession,
Church said in a prepared statement.
The countys median home price in
May 2014 was $1.13 million which
represents an 18.9 percent increase
over the previous year, according to
the California Association of
Realtors.
The secured roll was also bolstered
by a continuing trend of properties
previously reassessed lower being
fully or at least partially restored. In
scal year 2014-15, 41 percent of res-
idential properties were fully restored
and 50 percent received some value.
The number of residential properties in
the countys decline in value program
has also plummeted from a high of
34,7000 in scal year 2011-12 to the
current 14,700. Brisbane and Colma
are the two cities with the greatest per-
centage of participant properties.
Commercially, 382 properties are in
the program.
Foreclosures are also on the decline.
In 2013, the number dropped 57 per-
cent from the 3,008 of 2012. The num-
ber of notice of defaults also dropped
59 percent.

PROPERTY
In 2010, the U.S. Supreme Court
gave a green light to unlimited cor-
porate spending in elections in the
case of Citizens United vs Federal
Election Commission.
The ruling has been decried by
Democrats for unleashing a torrent of
spending enabling the wealthy to
wield outsized influence in politics.
If signed by Brown, SB1272 by
Sen. Ted Lieu, D-Torrance, would
place the advisory measure on the
November ballot asking voters if
they want a federal constitutional
amendment overturning the Citizens
United ruling.
The Assembly vote came after the
Legislature petitioned Congress last
week to hold a constitutional con-
vention for such an amendment.
While this Legislature is on record
supporting an amendment, its time
to let the peoples voice be heard,
Assemblyman Das Williams, D-Santa
Barbara, said as he presented the bill.
All amendments to the U.S.
Constitution have been proposed
with two-thirds votes in both houses
of Congress. However, striking an
agreement on campaign spending
with supermajorities in the House and
Senate is unlikely given the divided
Congress and deep partisanship.
Another avenue for amendments is
a convention that can be called if
two-thirds of state legislatures ask
Congress, though that has never hap-
pened.
California became the second state,
after Vermont, to take that step last
week when Senate lawmakers voted
for AJR1, which petitions for an
amendment overturning the Citizens
United ruling.
Former Assembly Speaker John
Perez, a Los Angeles Democrat who
stepped down from the leadership
post in May, voted for SB1272 on
Monday but questioned whether hav-
ing a public vote is neces-
sary given that lawmakers
already took a substantive
step toward proposing an
amendment.
The movement faces long
odds. Thirty-two other state
legislatures need to sign
on, including ones con-
trolled by Republicans.
Vermont passed such a reso-
lution, and Illinois started
considering one after
Assemblyman Mike Gatto,
D-Los Angeles, first intro-
duced an amendment meas-
ure in 2012.
Gatto acknowledges an
uphill battle but said states
taking action also can pres-
sure Congress to amend the
Constitution. That was the
case when Congress intro-
duced the 21st amendment
repealing the prohibition
of alcoholic beverages in
1933, as state legislators
were petitioning for a con-
vention.

tate, or both, of: Gladys Y. Cretan, aka
Gladys Yessayan Cretan, aka Gladys

filed by Clifford V. Cretan in the Superior

bate. The willand any codicils are availa-
ble for examination in tehfile kept by the
court.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ister the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
203 Public Notices
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: July 11, 2014 at
9:00 a.m., Dept. 28, Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo, 400
County Center, Redwood City, CA

If you object to the granting of the peti-
tion, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hear-
ing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent cred-
itor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representa-
tive, as defined in section 58(b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal de-
livery to you of a notice under section
9052 of the California Probate Code.
Other California statutes and legal au-
thority may affect your rights as a cred-
itor. You may want to consult with an at-
torney knowledgeable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.
