One person remains unaccount-
ed for following a six-alarm apart-
ment building fire in Redwood
City that injured 21 people yester-
day morning, according to a re
ofcial.
Fireghter do not know whether
the missing resident remains inside
the building or left and reconnected
with family without checking in
with anyone, Fire Marshall James
Palisi said last night.
We just dont know, Palisi
said. But we will be looking for
him.
The re, reported shortly before
2 a.m. at the 72-unit Hallmark
House Apartments at 531
Woodside Road, displaced around
97 people and injured 21,
Redwood City spokesman
Malcolm Smith said.
Three of those injured were re-
fighters. However, all of the
injuries were mild to moderate in
severity, Smith said.
The re was under control last
night but reghters and equip-
ment remained on site. Smith said
reghters were expected to stay
overnight, and an investigation
into the res cause will not begin
until this morning.
Woodside Road was closed in
both directions from Bonita
Avenue to Hess Avenue due to the
re, and was expected to reopen
around midnight, Smith said.
The Red Cross opened an
overnight shelter expected to
serve more than 40 people at
the National Guard Armory at
939 Velota Road in Redwood
Ci t y. Volunteers and staff there
will provide shelter, prescription
medicine replacement and emo-
tional support.
Fire crews arriving on the scene
this morning found heavy ames
and smoke coming from the build-
ing and many residents standing
on balconies waiting to be res-
cued, Redwood City Fire Marshal
James Palisi said.
Fireghters climbed ladders and
entered burning homes to rescue
the trapped residents and helped
16 people who were suffering from
minor to moderate injuries get
to local hospitals, Palisi said.
More than 100 reghters, 20
engines and seven ladder trucks
responded to the disaster, Smith
said.

SAN FRANCISCO Pilots of Asiana
Flight 214 were ying too slowly as
they approached San Francisco airport,
triggering a control board warning that
the jetliner could stall, and then tried to
abort the landing seconds before crash-
ing, according to federal safety ofcials.
Investigators also said they were look-
ing into the possibility that rescue crews
ran over one of the two teenagers killed
in the crash on Saturday. Officials
released the details without explaining
why the pilots were ying so slow or
why rescue ofcials didnt see the girl.

speeds well below the target landing

Home price gains bring
sellers off the sidelines
SAN DIEGO Robert and Emerald
Oravec were itching to sell their con-
dominium late last year to move clos-
er to a favorite surng spot, but they
were stuck. They owed the bank
$194,000 and gured the most they
could get was $180,000.
When they put their San Diego
home up for sale a few months later,
they fielded five offers within two
weeks. It sold for $260,000 in May,
allowing them to invest prots in a
new home thats more than twice the
size on a large lot and 40 minutes clos-
er to the surng beach.
Were stoked, said Robert, 50, a
facilities engineer at Solar Turbines
Inc., a maker of gas turbines that has
employed him for the last 22 years. It
was better to be patient and wait it
out.
Soaring prices are leaving fewer
homeowners owing more money than
their properties are worth, bringing
them off the sidelines of the nations
surging housing market and offering
relief to buyers who are frustrated by
bidding wars. As more homes are put
up for sale, price increases are expect-
ed to moderate.
Mark Fleming, chief economist at
real estate data provider CoreLogic
Inc., calls it a virtuous circle.
The fact that house prices have
increased so dramatically ... has
unlocked a lot of that pent-up supply,
said Fleming, whose rm found that
markets with the largest percentage of
underwater or upside down mort-
gages often have the lowest supply of
homes for sale.
At the end of March, 19.8 percent of
the nations mortgaged homes were
underwater, down from 23.7 percent a
year earlier and 25 percent during the
same period of 2011, according to
CoreLogic. Gains spread across the
country, though regions that rose
high and crashed hard remained saddled
with homeowners who bought near the
peak.
Nevada had a nation-high 45.4 per-
cent of mortgages underwater, fol-
lowed by Florida at 38.1 percent,
Michigan at 32 percent and Arizona at
31.4 percent. Montana had a nation-
low 5.6 percent.
Among major metropolitan areas,
Tampa Bay had a nation-high 41.1
percent of mortgaged homes underwa-
ter, followed by Miami at 40.7 per-
cent. Dallas had a nation-low 8.3 per-
cent.
San Diego, at 19.5 percent, was
slightly better than the national rate
and Californias 21.3 percent. The
regions median home sale price hit
$406,500 in May, up 21.3 percent
from a year earlier amid brisk sales,
according to DataQuick.
Housing inventories remain unusu-
ally low. There was a 5.2-month sup-
ply of existing, single-family homes
for sale in May, compared to 6.4
months a year earlier, according to the
National Association of Realtors.
California had only a 2.6-month sup-
pl y, compared to 3.6 months a year
earlier and well below the six months
that is considered a balanced market.
San Diego broker Colleen Cotter
began knocking on doors this year
after scouring property records to nd
homeowners who didnt owe money. If
someone answers, she makes an all-
cash bid on behalf of investors who
dont even visit.
Nearly one of three homes sold in
Southern California is paid for in
cash, putting borrowers at a disadvan-
tage. Some buyers write sellers about
how they would cherish a home, hop-
ing to spark a personal connection.
Josh Martin, 26, discovered homes
he and wife considered buying had
changed hands less than a year earlier
at much lower prices. The rst-time
homebuyers lost nine bids since
August many to cash buyers until
nally landing a home in May for
$250,000 in the San Diego suburb of
Chula Vista.
It was very stressful because the
prices just kept going up, said
Martin, who recently left the Marine
Corps. Our lease was about to end and
we didnt want to sign another year.
Economists expect many homeown-
ers will continue to resist selling
because they think they can profit
more by waiting.

I
n the early 1900s, the gas engine was
being perfected with higher perform-
ance and safety. Diesel when he started
his rst diesel engine had forgotten to gure
out a way to stop it. It kept going faster and
faster until it exploded. He did gure out how
to stop this spark engine and perfected it
into one of the most important engines in
the United States. Motorcycles struck the
publics interest and, after adding them only
to bicycles, sturdier frames and larger more
powerful engines were invented.
The racing of motorcycles aroused the
publics interest until the Wright brothers
succeed in blending an engine with a new
combination called the airplane. The engine
produced 16 horsepower and ew 37 mph
with its four-cylinder water-cooled in-line
engine. Because of the complexities of
steering these machines, their progress was
slow until World War I started and the army
began taking notice of this new weapon of
war. During World War I, the Curtiss Aircraft
Company perfected a plane that was to
prove very successful and thousands of them
were produced The Jenny (Curtiss JN-
4). The power plant provided 90 horsepow-
er using a Curtiss OX-5 eight-cylinder V-
type that produced a speed of 75 mph at sea
level. After the war, the army didnt need all
of these airplanes and it began selling them
to the public. For $500, you could own a
plane and many did. The age of the barn-
stormer arrived and hundreds of pilots
began showing off their planes and skills
by doing ridiculous feats that ended up
killing many pilots.
On Feb. 4, 1902, Charles Augustus
Lindberg was born in Detroit, Mich. His
father became a Republican congressman
while the family lived in Minnesota.
Charles exhibited interest in motors and
mechanics and he worked on his fathers
Saxon Six Automobile and later on his
Excelsior motorbike. The fad was blending
a motor with a bicycle and racing them. This
interest in things mechanical was to
become a passion with Charles Lindbergh
and opened many doors of opportunity for
him.
In 1922, he enrolled as a student of
mechanical engineering and became fasci-
nated with airplanes although he had never
touched one. He quit college and enrolled as
a student at the Nebraska Aircraft
Corporations ying school and, on April
9, 1922, he ew in a plane for the rst time.
To make expenses while at school,
Lindbergh began barnstorming in the
Midwest as a wing walker and parachutist.
He acquired the name Daredevil Lindbergh
after he bought a Curtiss JN-4, Jenny, and
barnstormed again. He had several accidents
that summer but none serious. On March 19,
1924, he was ordered to Brooks Field by San
Antonio, Texas for a year of military ight
training with the U.S. Army Air Service. In
March 1925, he was awarded his Army
pilots wings and a commission as a second
lieutenant in the Air Service Reserve Corps.
In October 1925, Lindbergh was hired by
the Robertson Aircraft Corporation in Saint
Louis to deliver the mail between St. Louis
and Chicago. Although he had two accidents
during the 10 months he ew this route, he
survived and, in February 1927, he left for
San Diego, Calif. to oversee the design and
construction of the Spirit of St. Louis.
Agreat deal of competition had been gen-
erated by the appearance of the airplane in
the early 1900s. Everything that was done
could immediately become a first. So
many obstacles had to be overcome for the

Laurie Kraus Lacob had never read, or been
asked to read for that matter, a screenplay
when a friend suggested the Woodside moth-
er of four read The Hot Flashes.
Lacob found herself laughing aloud at the
story now turned into an independent
movie. The story is about women in their
late 40s who create a basketball team to
challenge the teenage state champs and
raise money to keep the mobile mammogra-
phy unit open. She had coffee with the
writer, San Francisco-based Brad Hennig,
before reading the script. The two hit it off
and Lacob found the story of women in a
small Texas town resonated with her. It was
the start of an effort that would bring
together a number of Silicon Valley women
to support the movie which opens Friday,
July 12 in San Francisco and Palo Alto.
Lacob, who worked for a consulting rm
for 10 years before taking time off to focus
on her family and volunteer work, had never
worked on a movie. But, for this project,
she found herself as a very involved execu-
tive producer networking to nd investors,
partnerships and even get the support of
singer/songwriter Sheryl Crow who
penned and performed an original song for
the movie.
Hollywood is not making lms targeted
at women at 35 or above, said Lacob, who
added women like stories.
Lacob had a gut feeling about The Hot
Flashes, which ended up featuring Brooke
Shields, Wanda Sykes, Daryl Hannah,
Camryn Manheim and Virginia Madsen.
Getting started included nding others who
saw the possibilities with the story.
One of the investors Lacob began work-
ing with was Meryl Seilg, also of
Woodside.
Many of the women who decided to invest
were like Lacob and Seilg with profes-
sional experience but focusing time more
recently on family and community service
projects. They would get together at meet-
ings and slowly learn about the skills of
others, many of whom helped with the lm,
said Lacob.
We had
s e v e r a l
group meet-
ings with
these talent-
ed women. It
was exactly
the way
women vol-
unteer to do
things. I
can do
that, Seilg
explained while raising her hand. It was
very organic.
Work to create the lm was very much a
grassroots effort supported by many women
in Silicon Valley.
Pooling resources and knowledge was a
successful venture for the local women who
thought the movie would be a hit to a tar-
geted audience that Hollywood doesnt real-
ly make movies for anymore women
over 35. The movie got an R rating, which
was surprising to them but also seems like
something that could boost the lm. While
it doesnt hit big screens until later this
week, the movie has already been viewed by
many through Comcast On Demand.
What the women are learning is that the
story has a greater audience. Both have
heard positive feedback from men and even
teenagers about it. While it is a comedy,
both women note that there are important
topics broached by the lm life after
being a mom, access to health care and
breast cancer awareness.

Passengers in plane crashes
today, such as the one in San
Francisco involving Asiana
Airlines Flight 214, are more like-
ly to survive than in past disasters.
Saturdays crash was the latest
where a big commercial airliner
was destroyed but most passengers
escaped with their lives. There were
plenty of cuts, bruises and broken
bones and some more severe
injuries but only 2 of the 307
passengers and crew onboard died.
Planes now are structurally
sounder. In the cabin, stronger
seats are less likely to move and
crush passengers. Seat cushions
and carpeting are re retardant and
doors are easier to open. Those
improvements allow people to exit
the plane more quickly.
The nature of crashes has also
changed. Improvements in cockpit
technology mean that planes
rarely crash into mountains or each
other accidents that are much
more deadly.
Crashes are denitely more sur-
vivable today than they were a few
decades ago, said Kevin Hiatt,
president and CEO of the Flight
Safety Foundation, an industry-
backed nonprot group aimed at
improving air safety. Weve
learned from the past incidents
about what can be improved.
Investigators are still trying to
determine the cause of the Asiana
crash. But whatever the reason, it
reects the trend of fewer people
dying in plane accidents.
The odds werent always in pas-
sengers favor. From 1962 to
1981, 54 percent of people in
plane crashes were killed. From
1982 to 2009, that gure improved
to 39 percent, according to an
Associated Press analysis of
National Transportation Safety
Board data. Those figures only
include crashes with at least one
fatality. There have been other seri-
ous crashes where everybody sur-
vived.
The most famous was a US
Airways ight in January 2009 that
lost engine power after striking a

Whats really important is for
people to understand that airplane
crashes, the majority of them are
survivable, Deborah Hersman,
chairwoman of the National
Transportation Safety Board, said
Sunday on the CBS News show,
Face the Nation.
Several advances in aviation
technology have made these feats
of survival possible. They include:
Stronger seats. Todays airplane
seats and the bolts holding them
into the oor are designed to
withstand forces up to 16 times
that of gravity. That prevents rows
of seats from pancaking together
during a crash, crushing passen-
gers.
Fire retardant materials.
Carpeting and seat cushions are
now made of materials that burn
slower, spread ames slower and
dont give off noxious and danger-
ous gases.
Improved exits. Doors on
planes are much simpler to open
and easily swing out of the way,
allowing passengers to quickly
exit.
Advances boost plane crash survival odds

WASHINGTON Republicans
and Democrats will put good will
to the test when Congress returns
this week to potentially incendi-
ary ghts over nominations, unre-
solved disputes over student loans
and the farm bill, and the uncer-
tainty of whether lawmakers have
the political will to rewrite the
nations immigration laws.
The cooperation evident in the
Senate last month with passage of
a bipartisan immigration bill
could be wiped out immediately if
Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-
Nev., frustrated with GOP delaying
tactics on judges and nominations,
tries to change the Senate rules by
scrapping the current three-fths
majority for a simple majority.
Republican leader Mitch
McConnell of Kentucky has indi-
cated its a decision Reid could
regret if the GOP seizes Senate
control in next years elections.
Once the Senate definitively
breaks the rules to change the
rules, the pressure to respond in
kind will be irresistible to future
majorities, McConnell said last
month, looking ahead to 2014
when Democrats have to defend 21
seats to the GOPs 14.
McConnell envisioned a long
list of reversals from the
D e mo c r a t i c
agenda, from
r e p e a l i n g
P r e s i d e n t
Barack Obamas
health care law
to shipping
r a d i o a c t i v e
nuclear waste to
Yucca Mountain
in Reids home
state of Nevada.
Recently elected Democrats have
clamored for changes in Senate
rules as Obama has faced
Republican resistance to his nom-
inations.
Two Cabinet-rank choices
Tom Perez as labor secretary and
Gina McCarthy to head the
Environmental Protection Agency
could be approved by the Senate
this month after a loud debate over
administration policies.
The GOP also has challenged
Obamas three judicial nominees
to the powerful U.S. Court of
Appeals for the District of
Columbia Circuit as theyve tried
to eliminate the vacancies.
Reid had served notice in April
that the Democratic majority could
change the Senate rules on any
given day, and he was willing to
do so if necessary.
In the Republican-controlled
House, courteous behavior, even
within the GOP ranks, has barely
been perceptible with the igno-
minious failure of the farm bill.
Some collaboration will be neces-
sary if the House is to move ahead
on immigration legislation this
month.
Conservatives from safe, gerry-
mandered House districts have
rebuffed appeals from some
national Republicans who argue
that embracing immigration over-
haul will boost the partys politi-
cal standing with an increasingly
diverse electorate, especially in
the 2016 presidential election.
The conservatives strongly
oppose any legislation offering
legalization to immigrants living
here illegally.
GOP, Dems to spar as Congress returns
By Don Thompson
SACRAMENTO California
prisoners have unprotected sexual
contact, forced or consensual,
even if both are illegal, and this
reality often leads to the spread of
HIV and other diseases in prisons
and in communities where felons
are paroled.
Setting up a difcult conversa-
tion, one state lawmaker says its
time to give inmates a way to prac-
tice safe sex behind bars to reduce
an infection rate that experts say
is much higher than that of the
general population.
The proposal from Oakland
Democratic Assemblyman Rob
Bonta comes despite a law pro-
hibiting any sex between inmates,
which creates a conict that con-
cerns both supporters and oppo-
nents of the legislation.
Its a felony for prisoners to
have sex while theyre in prison,
so I dont think its good govern-
ment for the state to encourage
inmates to break the law, said
Republican Assemblyman Dan
Logue of Marysville.
Bontas proposal would require
the California Department of
Corrections and Rehabilitation to
make condoms available in ve
prisons by 2015 and expand the
program to all prisons by 2020.

WASHINGTON The
Pentagons effort to account for
tens of thousands of
Americans missing
in action from for-
eign wars is so
inept, mismanaged
and wasteful that it
risks descending
from dysfunction to
total failure,
according to an
internal study sup-
pressed by military
ofcials.
Largely beyond the public spot-
light, the decades-old pursuit of
bones and other MIA evidence is
sluggish, often duplicative and
subjected to too little scientic
rigor, the report says.
The Associated Press obtained a
copy of the internal study after
Freedom of Information Act
requests for it by
others were denied.
The report paints
a picture of a Joint
P O W / M I A
A c c o u n t i n g
Command, a mili-
tary-run group
known as JPAC and
headed by a two-star
general, as woefully
inept and even cor-
rupt. The command
is digging up too few clues on for-
mer battleelds, relying on inac-
curate databases and engaging in
expensive boondoggles in
Europe, the study concludes.
In North Korea, the JPAC was
snookered into digging up
remains between 1996 and 2000
that the North Koreans apparently
had taken out of storage and plant-
ed in former American fighting
positions, the report said.
Washington paid the North
Koreans hundreds of thousands of
dollars to support these excava-
tions.
Some recovered bones had been
drilled or cut, suggesting they had
been used by the North Koreans to
make a lab skeleton. Some of
those remains have since been
identied, but their compromised
condition added time and expense
and cast doubt over all of the evi-
dence recovered in North Korea,
the study said.

OPINION 9
Mike Caggianos July 4 letter
Editor,
The Middle East is in chaos and we
hear from letter writer Mike Caggiano
(Israel and our independence day in
the July 4 edition of the Daily Journal)
about the burger war being waged in
Israel. It seems the guy who runs the
McDonalds franchise in Israel decid-
ed, as a citizen of a democracy, not to
open a store in the town of Ariel, just
east of Jerusalem. The folks who live
there will have to drive 10 miles to get
the Big Mac or as they call it in Israel,
a Big America. Or they can walk over
to the Burger Ranch thatll be opening
soon. Watch out Mac, a competitor is
on the horizon.
As a fully paid-up member of the pro-
Israel lobby that Mike nds so powerful,
Ive urged the Obama administration to
deal with the real issues of the region:
not an apartment complex in Samaria,
but the mass demonstrations in Ankara,
the mass murder in Aleppo, the coup in
Cairo, the refugee crisis in Amman, the
daily bombings in Baghdad, Teheran
near the bomb and maybe a few other
issues of war and peace.
Oh, and the Fourth of July is my
51st wedding anniversary, so Im on
my way to the Shoreline to watch
Mountain View celebrate this happy,
personal occasion.

Scary Israeli Lobby
Editor,
It was difcult to tell whether Mike
Caggiano intended for his letter,
Israel and our independence day in
the July 4 edition of the Daily
Journal, to be an anti-Israel parody or
a serious argument.
Perhaps the biggest suggestion of
ippancy was the writers hysterical
reference to the scary monster that is
the Israeli Lobby. Israels enemies
believe that there is a nefarious con-
spiracy to silence any criticism of the
Jewish state. In light of the hundreds
of published anti-Israel letters and
opinion pieces, the dozens of books
written by Jimmy Carter and other crit-
ics and the frequent appearances on
network and cable television programs
by pro-Palestinian speakers, the cog-
nitive dissonance needed to maintain
this delusion must be enormous.
And Caggiano expressed a puzzling
concern that Israeli ofcials warm
reception for Secretary of State John
Kerry was merely a pretext to reveal
new settlement expansion. Yet Kerry
rejected the idea that settlement activ-
ity prevents the Israelis and
Palestinians from meeting for peace
negotiations.
If I wanted to ridicule the anti-
Israeli campaign, I could hardly have
done better than Caggianos letter.
Well done, sir.

D
uring the recent Foster City
Council meeting, Assistant
City Manager Steve Toler con-
rmed that Foster City has achieved its
required 20 percent reduction in water
consumption and has 5.9 million gal-
lons of water available each day going
forward. Excellent news and congratu-
lations are in order. Last year, our City
Council set a $500,000 cap on the
water conservation rebate fund when it
approved current rates. Consumption
nes net of rebates for water conserva-
tion has increased this fund to
$900,000 during the past year. Mr.
Toler said this fund would be reduced to
$500,000 before water rates are set
next year.
During my unsuccessful campaign
for City Council in 2011, the two
retiring councilmembers took me aside
and asked that I drop the issue of water
availability as staff had determined to
their satisfaction that water should not
be a consideration in approving devel-
opment projects. I accepted their asser-
tion and no longer campaigned on this
issue.
Note that the water available to
Foster City is an absolute amount per
day, based upon average daily con-
sumption during a year.
Why does it matter?
Our city is considering develop-
ments, the 15-acre site, Gilead expan-
sion, continuation of Pilgrim-Triton,
Charter Square and the Chess Drive
developments and each will add con-
sumers of water. Within the 5.9 mil-
lion gallons per day, these new water
consumers will nec-
essarily take avail-
able water from cur-
rent residents, com-
mercial enterprises
and consumption
for our citys parks.
As an example, if
our city has 12,000
water consumers,
we add 1,000 new
consumers and we have an absolute
quantity of water available, we must
each reduce our water consumption by
an additional 8 percent beyond the 20
percent reduction already achieved.
This while many of us are paying con-
sumption penalties on current levels
of consumption as demonstrated by
the increase in the water conservation
rebate fund this past year.
These projects will provide our
citys budget with signicant revenue
though property taxes and fees. Such
taxes and fees would be used to fund
future city services. It is likely that the
council is considering the decit that
will again be faced in two years due
largely to the increased cost of pen-
sions for city employees, resulting
from prior underfunding and invest-
ment losses incurred by CalPERS, the
state pension fund.
I propose that all developments be
revisited with two goals to be posted
for all citizens to review with a reason-
able period of open public discussion.
First, disclose publicly the amount of
water expected to be consumed by each
project. Second, disclose to the public
how the developer will provide the
water required for the development. As
a partial contribution, the developer
should be contributing the penalties
presently funding the water conserva-
tion rebate fund, not existing water
consumers. This should also allow for
the return of the current rebate fund
($900,000) to existing residents
though water rate reductions.
I support staffs proposals to encour-
age water conservation, including the
recently approved increased rebates
limits and applaud the achieved 20 per-
cent reduction in daily usage. I do pro-
pose that a better recognition of water
consumption by homeowner associa-
tions that represent 60 percent+ of our
residents can improve the effective-
ness of Foster Citys incentive pro-
grams. Two areas that could be
explored are:
1). Irrigated common areas within
associations may represent 430,000
square feet and the current incentives
are capped at 5,000 square feet; and
2) Some associations do not have
water metered by unit but rather have a
single meter for several units that may
not encourage water conservation. I
suspect apartment complexes may
have these same opportunities.
As I offered during the council meet-
ing, our associations look forward to
working with staff and council to the
mutual benet of our city.
Increased water consumption result-
ing from new developments must be
explicitly considered and publicly dis-
closed in the overall project review
and approval process.

Water conservation and Foster City services
The extra
ordinary
A
reader suggests a column about those unknown
individuals who work tirelessly for change
and are not well-known politicians with built-
in cash reserves. Good suggestion. There are countless
numbers of these individuals in our communities. After
all, thats what makes a town or a school successful,
when it has citizen participation. The following is
about several extra ordi-
nary individuals who vol-
unteer not to get their
name in the paper but to
help others. They dont
seek recognition. They
dont want their name in
the newspaper. So they
will be identified by first
name only. If you happen
to recognize who they
are, give them a hug the
next time you see them.
After Stan retired as an
accountant, he decided to
use his time to volunteer
as a tutor at our local schools. He is now so busy help-
ing kids, he rarely has time to play tennis or walk the
dog. Joy went back to work while raising three teenage
girls. She taught math at a county school and then was
hired to be a principal at a middle school in another dis-
trict. There she made a name for herself as a first-rate
administrator who worked well with teachers and stu-
dents. When she retired, she decided to share some of
her expertise as a volunteer. She regularly helps illiter-
ate adults learn to read at the San Mateo Librarys
Project Read. She also tutors first graders each week at
one of San Mateos elementary schools. Once she had a
little boy who wasnt interested in reading but Joy dis-
covered he loved trains. At their reading session, she
brought a wooden train set her kids had played with. Her
pupil was entranced. She then found some books on
trains. From then on, it was no problem getting him to
concentrate on books. The lucky students Joy mentors
have the benefit of someone exceptionally skilled, kind
and patient, an educator extra ordinary.
Rochelle lives in Millbrae. Her grandchildren are not
close by. So she decided to volunteer at a special pro-
gram at Horrall Elementary School in San Mateo. For
the past three years, she has been making the trip every
morning twice a week to help first graders learn how to
read. She never misses a day unless shes sick. Penny
and Dick are retired attorneys. They attended a Peninsula
Speakers series where they heard former Florida gover-
nor Jeb Bush say the best thing he does all week is
tutor. They decided if he can do it, they can too. So they
signed up to work with first graders at George Hall
Elementary School. Thats the same program with which
Joy and Rochelle are involved. So is Sam. Sam and his
son Guy started tutoring at Horrall three years ago after
hearing a presentation at their Kiwanis Club. At the
time Guy, a contractor, was unemployed. The children,
especially the boys, always looked forward to the week-
ly visit from father and son. Sam was often called
Grandpa by his students. The good news for Guy is
that he now works full time. But Sam is still at it.
***
There are several excellent tutoring programs which
attract similar extra ordinary people. They include
grandmothers and grandfathers who want to do some-
thing worthwhile with their time, former teachers, nurs-
es, attorneys and firefighters. They do this unselfishly
but are ready to tell you its the best hour or hours they
spend all week. There are also the legion of volunteers
at Samaritan House who rise early, pick up and deliver
bread to the food kitchen; who serve meals to the needy
in our community. And the list goes on. You probably
wont find their name in the newspaper. And they wont
be fundraising for their political campaigns but
fundraising for local schools or nonprofits. There are
even a few people like Jan and Dave who are at every
San Mateo city fire to provide hot coffee and home-
baked cookies for the firefighters. There are the hun-
dreds of Rotary members who raise money for scholar-
ships so students can attend community college or a
four-year university. They dont get their name in the
paper either.
So as the reader suggests, lets celebrate the extra
ordinary people in life who make all our lives so much
better. They are certainly not ordinary.

BUSINESS 10
By Scott Mayerowitz
NEW YORK For Corporate America,
its the season of low expectations.
Companies have been scaling back their
earnings forecasts for weeks as part of a
quarterly cat-and-mouse game with nancial
analysts. Its not OK just to report a strong
second-quarter prot they also need to
beat analysts forecasts. And companies are
eager to do just that.
Earnings season gets started Monday,
when aluminum giant Alcoa Inc. reports
results after the stock market close.
Wall Street analysts now predict that
earnings for companies in the Standard &
Poors 500 rose 3 percent in the second
quarter compared with a year earlier, accord-
ing to a survey by S&P Capital IQ. But as
recently as April 1, they thought earnings
would rise nearly 7 percent. At the start of
the year; they forecast a 9 percent increase.
Companies that provide raw materials and
technology rms are expected to drag down
growth.
Another reason for the drop? Eighty
seven of the 111 S&P 500 companies that
offered guidance were negative.
You really have to take it with a grain of
salt, said Christine Short, associate direc-
tor at S&P Capital IQ. Last quarter, she said,
65 percent of companies beat nancial ana-
lysts estimates.
Quarterly growth over the past 15 years
has averaged 8 percent. In the last eight
quarters, analysts estimates have under-
played growth by about 4 percentage
points, according to Short. That would
mean earnings in the second quarter just
ended are more likely to rise around 7 per-
cent.
There are plenty of areas that could help
lift corporate prots. Americans condence
is up and they are willing to spend again.
The housing market rebound is also expect-
ed to push up earnings of home construction
companies such as DR Horton Inc., Lennar
Corp. and PulteGroup Inc. The consumer
discretionary sector, which includes retail-
ers like Target Corp., entertainment compa-
nies like Walt Disney Co. and the home-
builders, is expected to see growth of 12
percent.
The nancial sector is also expected to
see a jump, with 16 percent growth from a
year earlier.
An aggregate of the S&P 500s earnings
per share is estimated at $26.41, up from
$25.67 reported in the second quarter last
year. That would be the second-highest quar-
terly earnings, only topped by the all-time
high of $26.71 during this years rst quar-
ter.
Howard Silverblatt, a senior index ana-
lyst with S&P Dow Jones Indices, said the
earnings should propel the S&P 500 index
past its record close of 1,669.16 on May
21.
The guidance has been negative, but not
as much as historically, Silverblatt said.
Still, there are concerns. Short points out
that earnings are only part of the picture.
Shes scrutinizing revenue growth, which is
predicted to slow by 0.3 percent from last
years second quarter. If that holds true, it
would be the rst revenue slowdown since
the third quarter of 2009, just after the reces-
sion ended
Companies have gotten very good at
managing costs which is of course
important but its unsustainable, Short
said. At some point you need to grow that
top line.
Prots at mining and other companies
that provide gold, aluminum and similar
products are expected to slow because of
lower commodity prices. Growth for their
prots is expected to pull back by 4 per-
cent.
The technology sector isnt looking
promising either. Personal computer sales
have slumped, hurting Dell Inc. and
Hewlett-Packard Co. But the real drag is
Apple Inc. The company isnt launching
any new products and is expected to earn
$7.37 a share, down from $9.32 last year,
according to FactSet. Apple accounts for
about 15 percent of the sectors weight, so
its earnings drop brings down the entire
group. Growth in IT earnings will slow by 5
percent.

ers and consultants. Combined, these
workers number nearly 17 million
people who have only tenuous ties to
the companies that pay them about
12 percent of everyone with a job.
Hiring is always healthy for an
economy. Yet the rise in temp and con-
tract work shows that many employers
arent willing to hire for the long run.
The number of temps has jumped
more than 50 percent since the reces-
sion ended four years ago to nearly 2.7
million the most on government
records dating to 1990. In no other
sector has hiring come close.
Driving the trend are lingering uncer-
tainty about the economy and employ-
ers desire for more exibility in match-
ing their payrolls to their revenue.
Some employers have also sought to
sidestep the new health care laws rule
that they provide medical coverage for
permanent workers. Last week, though,
the Obama administration delayed that
provision of the law for a year.
The use of temps has extended into
sectors that seldom used them in the
past professional services, for exam-
ple, which include lawyers, doctors and
information technology specialists.
Temps typically receive low pay,
few benets and scant job security.
That makes them less likely to spend
freely, so temp jobs dont tend to
boost the economy the way permanent
jobs do. More temps and contract
workers also help explain why pay
has barely outpaced ination since the
recession ended.
Beyond economic uncertainty,
Ethan Harris, global economist at
Bank of America Merrill Lynch,
thinks more lasting changes are tak-
ing root.
Theres been a generational shift
toward a less committed relationship
between the firm and the worker,
Harris says.
A survey of 37 economists in May
found that three-quarters thought the
increased use of temps and contract
workers represented a long-standing
trend.
Typical of that trend is Latrese Carr,
who was hired by a Wal-Mart in
Glenwood, Ill., two months ago on a
90-day contract. She works 10 p.m. to
7 a.m., helping unload trucks and
restocking shelves. Her pay is $9.45
an hour. Theres no health insurance or
other benet s.
Temp jobs becoming a permanent fixture
SEATTLE For the past 18 years, the Boeing 777 has
been known as one of the safest commercial planes in the
air.
The twin-engine wide-bodied jet had only one major inci-
dent before a 777 crashed in San Francisco Saturday, killing
two passengers.
That came on Jan. 17, 2008, when a British Airways 777
lost power and crashed short of the runway at Londons
Heathrow Airport, The Seattle Times reported Sunday.
Alanding gear collapsed and a strut pierced the passenger
oor. Apart from one broken leg there were no serious
injuries. Investigators found a buildup of ice in the fuel
lines caused a power failure.
Boeing says since entering service in June 1995, the
long-range plane has own about 5 million ights, accu-
mulating more than 18 million ight hours.
The 777 has a fantastic record, said Tom Haueter, who
retired last year from the National Transportation Safety Board,
where he was the head of aviation accident investigations.
Saturdays crash at San Francisco International Airport of
an Asiana Airlines ight from Seoul, South Korea, bears
an eerie similarity to the 2008 crash, said John Nance, a
veteran airline pilot who lives in Washington state and
serves as an aviation expert for ABC News.

SAN FRANCISCO With the
Golden Gate Bridge looming to
his right, Emirates Team New
Zealand skipper Dean Barker hit
the starting line and immediately
got his 72-foot catamaran speed-
ing across the tops of the waves
on hydrofoils.
The Americas Cup challenger
trials were underway on San
Francisco Bay and the Kiwis were
clearly in control.
At one point, the boys from
Down Under hit 42.8 knots in
their high-performance cat, or
just more than 49 mph.
Of course, it helped that there
was no opponent.
Emirates Team New Zealand
sailed alone around the course
Sunday to collect the first point
of the regatta. Their scheduled
opponent, Italys Luna Rossa,
boycotted, saying it wont race
until an international jury hears
protests regarding rules changes
made after Andrew Bart
Simpson of Artemis Racing was
killed in a capsize May 9.
Did it feel like a victory?
No, Barker said, For us, its
just another day of practice in
terms of getting better for the
knockout stages in August.
While the Kiwis put on a show
for spectators lining the shore, it
was hardly what organizers had
in mind after software tycoon
Larry Ellison reclaimed the
Americas Cup for the United
States more than three years ago.
I feel sorry for people coming
down to watch to only see one
boat sailing around, Barker
said.
What needs to be done?
We need another boat to turn
up and go racing, he said.
This is supposed to be the most
eye-popping Americas Cup ever,
with the sleek, space-age catama-
rans sailing three times the speed
of the wind with a stunning back-
drop of the Golden Gate Bridge,
Alcatraz Island and the
Transamerica pyramid.
Its also the first time in the
regattas 162-year history that
its been contested inshore rather
than miles out to sea.
But the contest for the oldest
trophy in international sports
has been bogging down since
even before it started.
The accident that killed
Simpson led regatta director Iain
Murray to make 37 safety recom-
mendations, including changes
to the winglets on the rudders
that he says will make the cata-
marans more stable, particularly
as they speed downwind riding
only on hydrofoils.
Luna Rossa and Team New
Zealand protested, saying Murray
doesnt have the authority to uni-
laterally change the rules.

dressed quickly following yet another loss.
He then pulled his hood over his head and
briskly walked out of the clubhouse.
The usually jovial Giants closer perhaps
could not face another round of questions
regarding the state of the Giants.
Romo gave up a two-out, bases-clearing
double to A.J. Ellis to snap a tie and the Los
Angeles Dodgers beat the slumping San
Francisco Giants 4-1 on Sunday.
Theres no question this is a tough loss,
Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. Ninth
inning, two outs, in a tie game and just a
pitch away from getting out of it. These
guys are resilient and are handling this as
well as they can.
The Giants are 3-13 since their last win-
ning streak of any kind, a two-game stretch
over the San Diego Padres June 18-19. They
have not won more than two in a row since
beating the Atlanta Braves three straight
May 3-5.

team, Giants starter Chad Gaudin said. Its

homered and drove in four runs for the
Oakland Athletics on Sunday. Jed Lowrie

So when Eric Sogard went deep, who real-
ly cared?
There was no home run tunnel or any-
thing, the light-hitting Sogard joked of a
rather muted home run celebration that
awaited him after rounding the bases during
a 10-4 win over the Kansas City Royals.
They were probably surprised I hit one.

LONDON Andy Murray needed one
more point, one solitary point, to win
Wimbledon a title he yearned to earn for
himself, of course, and also for his country.
Britain had endured 77 years since one of
its own claimed the mens trophy at the
revered tournament referred to simply as The
Championships, and now here was Murray,
on the brink of triumph after 3 hours of gru-
eling tennis against top-seeded Novak
Djokovic under a vibrant sun at Centre
Court.
Up 40-love, Murray failed to convert his
rst match point. And his second. And then,
yes, his third, too. On and on the contest,
and accompanying tension, stretched,
Murray unable to close it, Djokovic unwill-
ing to yield, the minutes certainly feeling
like hours to those playing and those
watching. Along came three break points
for Djokovic, all erased. Finally, on
Murrays fourth chance to end it, Djokovic
dumped a backhand into the net.
The nal was over.
The wait was over.
Ayear after coming oh-so-close by losing
in the title match at the All England Club,
the No. 2-ranked Murray beat No. 1
Djokovic of Serbia 6-4, 7-5, 6-4 Sunday to
become Wimbledons champion in a test of
will and skill between a pair of men with
mirror-image defensive styles that created
lengthy points brimming with superb
shots.
That last game will be the toughest game
Ill play in my career. Ever, said Murray,
who was born in Dunblane, Scotland, and is
the rst British man to win the grass-court
Grand Slam tournament since Fred Perry in
1936. Winning Wimbledon I still cant
believe it. Cant get my head around that. I
cant believe it.
For several seasons, Murray was the out-
sider looking in, while Roger Federer,
Rafael Nadal and Djokovic collected 29 out
of 30 Grand Slam titles. But now Murray has
clearly and completely turned the Big 3 into
a Big 4, having reached the nals at the last
four major tournaments he entered (he with-
drew from the French Open in May because
of a bad back). And hes now a two-time
Slam champion, having defeated Djokovic

how you come out of it that matters.
Everybody in here is out there working hard
every game.
All-star Clayton Kershaw (8-5) and
Gaudin engaged in a tight duel, with Gaudin
working seven innings.
Yasiel Puig singled off Romo (3-4) to
open the ninth. Adrian Gonzalez followed
with a sharp single that rst baseman Buster
Posey initially knocked down. Posey tried
ipping the ball to shortstop Joaquin Arias
covering second but threw the ball into left
eld for an error
When San Francisco third baseman Pablo
Sandoval raced to retrieve the ball, Puig
alertly advanced to third. Hanley Ramirez
was retired on a comebacker, Andre Ethier
was intentionally walked to load the bases
and Juan Uribe struck out before Ellis lined a
two-out double into left-center.
Sergio had a good slider going, Giants
catcher Guillermo Quiroz said. He was get-
ting a lot of swings and misses. The slider
(to Ellis) was up in the zone and didnt do
anything. That was the only that got away.
Bochy said Posey did an admirable job
just getting to the ball Gonzalez hit.
Sure that put us in a tough situation but it
was a tough play, Bochy said. Buster made
a good stop and they had something going.
Once again we ran into a well-pitched game
from Kershaw. He shut us down.
Kershaw beat the Giants for the third time
this season. Hes 8-4 against them overall.
Kershaw allowed the Giants run in the third
after Quiroz doubled, took third on a wild
pitch and scored on Andres Torres sacrice
y. Gaudin, who had been out since getting
hit in the right elbow by a line drive from
Miamis Derek Dietrich on June 20, was just
as sharp as the Dodgers three-time All-Star.
He retired 12 of 13 during one stretch and
also worked out of a two-on, two-out jam in
the seventh by striking out Uribe before
departing. Gaudin nished with nine strike-
outs his most since June 28, 2009 and
one intentional walk.
NOTES: LHP Mike Kickham was
optioned to Triple-AFresno before the game
to make room for Gaudin. ... Giants RHP
Santiago Casilla will pitch at least twice
more in the minors before rejoining the
team, Bochy said. ... RHP Ryan Vogelsong

hits, and everybody in the starting
lineup except Chris Young had one
against the Royals haphazard pitch-
i ng.
We got some runs early, said Josh
Donaldson, who had a pair of hits.
Then it seemed like every time they
got a run our offense would answer
right back.
A.J. Grifn (7-6) rebounded from a
miserable start against the Cubs to go
ve innings for the As. The only dam-
age he allowed came on solo homers
by George Kottaras and Alex Gordon.
Jesse Chavez earned his rst career
save with four scoreless innings of
relief.
Saved the bullpen, thats all I was
trying to do, Chavez said.
Luis Mendoza (2-5) allowed ve runs
in the second inning for the Royals,
and was yanked to a round of boos after
retiring just four batters. It was the
right-handers shortest start in exactly
ve years since an outing on July 7,
2008, when he was still with Texas.
He fell behind early, which puts you
in a defensive mode, Kottaras said.
Once he falls behind, hitters can look
for a pitch in a certain zone and took
advantage of it. It happens.

in ve sets at the U.S. Open in September.
All this from a guy who lost his rst four
major nals, including against Federer at
Wimbledon in 2012. After that defeat,
Murrays voice cracked and tears rolled as he
told the crowd, Im getting closer.
How prescient. Four weeks later, on the
same court, he beat Federer for a gold medal
at the London Olympics, a transformative
victory if ever there was one. And 52 weeks
later, on the same court, he beat Djokovic
for the Wimbledon championship.
You need that self-belief in the important
moments, observed Djokovic, a six-time
major champion, and hes got it now.
Murrays mother, Judy, who is Britains
Fed Cup captain, agreed that the setback 12
months ago was a turning point in some
ways.
Every time you have a really tough loss,
a loss that really hurts you, she said, I
think you learn a lot about how to handle
the occasions better going forward.
Murray trailed 4-1 in the second set
Sunday, and 4-2 in the third, before wig-
gling his way back in front each time.
He won the last four games, breaking for a
5-4 lead when Djokovic ubbed a forehand,
setting off a standing ovation and applause
that lasted more than a full minute. When he
got out of his changeover chair, preparing
to serve for the title, an earsplitting roar
accompanied his trek to the baseline.
Djokovic missed a backhand, Murray
smacked a backhand winner and added a 131
mph (211 kph) service winner, and suddenly
one point was all that remained between
him and history. Thats where things got a
tad complicated.
On match point No. 1, Djokovic capped a
12-stroke exchange with a forehand volley
winner. On No. 2, Djokovic hit a backhand
return winner off an 84 mph (135 kph) sec-
ond serve. On No. 3, Murray sailed a back-
hand long on the ninth shot.
Now it was deuce.
I started to feel nervous and started think-
ing about what just happened, Murray said.
Theres a lot of things youre thinking of
at that moment.
The match continued for eight additional
points. Seemed to take an eternity.
Just how that last game went, my head
was kind of everywhere. I mean, some of the
shots he came up with were unbelievable,
Murray said.

The Bel-Mateo Babe Ruth team
had a little bit of unnished busi-
ness.
And a two days after they jumped
to a 6-1 lead in the Babe Ruth tour-
nament championship game
against Mountain View, they got
their chance to put the title to bed.
The Babe Ruth championship
game was technically played on
Friday afternoon at the Belmont
Sports Complex. But that battle
was stopped in the fth inning
when a tournament pitching rule
violation appeared to end the
game by forfeit.
After the incident, both teams
went home and after further review
by the Babe Ruth hierarchy, it was
determined that the pitching rule
had not been violated after all
The game was continued on
Sunday afternoon at a new venue,
Carlmont High School, where the
nal three innings were played to
determine the tournament champ.
And after building that ve-run
advantage, the Bel-Mateo team
added to it and came away with a 9-
1 nal for the game and tourna-
ment victory.
Adrien Beaulieu pitched the
complete seven innings for the
tournament win.
On Friday, Beaulieu allowed one
unearned run and two singles in
the rst inning and another single
in the second.
Although he hit two Mountain
View batters on Sunday, he did not
give up another hit in the nal 5
innings, utilizing 79 pitches (51
on Friday and 28 on Sunday),
striking out four and walking no
one.
In addition, Beaulieu was 2-for-3
at the plate with a walk and drove
in three runs, hitting an RBI sin-
gle in the third and a two-run sin-
gle in the fourth.
Andrew Yarak was 3-for-5 with a
double in the second inning. Tyler
Lyons single in second drove in
Bel-Mateos rst run and his RBI
double in sixth also drove in a run;
he was 2-for-3 and walked twice.
Shortstop David Badet hit sin-
gles in the game and second base-
man David Vizcarra hit a single
and walked twice with the bases
loaded to account for two RBIs.
The Belmont Sports Complex
was unavailable for Babe Ruth
games after Friday which led to the
change of venue to Carlmont High
School.
DISTRICT 52 UPDATE
The District 52 championship
games are just over the horizons.
And after last weekends games, a
trio of teams have locked up spots
in this weeks title games.
Over in the 9-10 Minors brack-
et, San Mateo National is in.
The talented group of young-
sters defeated Hillsborough 8-7
in the semifinals to secure a
place in Tuesdays title bout. The
game is scheduled for a 5:30 first
pitch at Burgess Park field No. 2
in Menlo Park. The San Mateo
offense is hot. Before beating
Foster City, San Mateo took
down Pacifica National 12-1.
In the 10-11 bracket, Pacifica
American is in.
Pacifica took down
Hillsboroughs other team 4-1 to
secure a place in the champi-
onship game. It appears that
Pacificas pitching is only get-
ting better. After allowing three
runs in the Game 1 of their tour-
nament, Pacifica has given up a
combined three in its next two
games.
In the Majors tournament,
Belmont Redwood Shores in is,
continuing their torrid pace.
Once again, the opposition
was no match and they took down
Pacifica by an unreal 26-9 score.
By virtue of its win, Belmont-
Redwood Shores has secured their
spot in the championship game
on Wednesday, July 10 at the
Belmont Sports Complex.
Belmont-Redwood Shores has
averaged 16 runs a game during
the Majors tournament.
On Sunday, Brad Shimabuku
added to his Player of the
Tournament resume with five hits
two singles, a double and two
home runs and 10 runs batted
in.
Dominic Susa also went yard
twice and added a pair of singles
for his seven RBIs.
Noah Marcelo also went deep.
Taylor Douglis drove in three,
Nicolas Lopez two and Ryan
Anderson drove in one as well.
Bel-Mateo wins Babe Ruth tourney title

LONDON When she was in
middle school, Marion Bartoli
would do homework in the car
while her father, who was also her
coach, drove the 100 or so miles
from their home in central France
to various junior tennis tourna-
ments.
During the week, when Dad
would nish his day job as a doc-
tor, they would head out for a cou-
ple of hours of practice, some-
times starting at 9 or 10 p.m.
Then coming back home and
waking myself up in the morning
to go to school and do it over
and over again, Bartoli said. So
that made me the person I am right
now on the court. Its coming all
from there.
Today, at 28, Bartoli is a
Wimbledon champion.
And when the 15th-seeded
Bartolis 6-1, 6-4 victory over No.
23 Sabine Lisicki in Saturdays
nal at the All England Club ended
with an ace, she climbed up into
the stands and gave her father a
hug.
To share this
moment with
my dad was
a b s o l u t e l y
a m a z i n g ,
Bartoli said,
and Im so
proud of it.
Speaking to
reporters after
the match,
Walter Bartoli acknowledged he
was tough on his daughter.
When she was a little girl, on
Sundays, she wanted to eat cook-
ies, but I kept telling her that if
she wanted to win Wimbledon one
day, she had to play two more
points before lunch, he said.
And as long as she did not win
those two extra points, she was
not allowed to eat cookies. She
was 13 or 14, but Im sure it had an
effect on her.
He was never a tennis player
himself; chess was his favored
pastime.
But from when little Marion was
about 6, he was determined to g-
ure out how to make her a success.
When she was 7 1/2, she
watched on television as Monica
Seles beat Stef Graf to win the
1992 French Open. Fascinated by
Seles two-handed grips for fore-
hands and backhands, Bartoli
decided she would play the same
way.
Her father liked the idea because,
as he put it Saturday, her forehand
was too weak.
I told her to try with both hands
and, after just a couple of hours of
practice, it was better. So we decid-
ed to keep working on it this
way, he added. The fact that she
plays with two hands on both
sides gives her a big advantage,
because she can hit the ball earlier.
Thats the key.
There were times that other
coaches urged her to change to a
more traditional forehand.
They tried to switch me back to
a one-handed forehand, she said,
laughing at the recollection. And
when they saw my one-handed
forehanded, they were like, OK,
thats ne. Just stick with your
(two-handed shots). Fine.
Took a while, but Bartoli and
her father nally can say they
knew what they were doing the
whole time.
Bartolis unusual methods pay off at Wimbledon
PASADENA Fabrice Reuperne
scored in the 92nd minute to lift
Martinique to a 1-0 victory over
Canada in the opening round of the
CONCACAF Gold Cup on Sunday
at the Rose Bowl.
Its a bit disappointing to lose
in the last minute, but I cant fault
the players for their attitude and
efforts, said Colin Miller,
Canadas interim coach. I felt that
we made things very difcult for
ourselves by giving the ball away
too easily.
The victory was a first for
Martinique in Gold Cup competi-
tion over Canada. The teams tied
in group play during the 1993
Gold Cup, but Canada got a 6-5
penalty-kick win in the 2002 quar-
ternals.
We still have bad memories
from that quarterfinal against
Canada, Martinique coach Patrick
Cavelan said through a translator.
(Reuperne) was the same player
that missed the penalty kick in that
game. We got revenge for him.
Martinique didnt bring an espe-
cially impressive resume into the
tournament. It qualied for its rst
Gold Cup entry since 2003 by n-
ishing fourth in the CFU
Caribbean Cup.
The team won its two prep match-
es, but those were against an ama-
teur selection squad from Oregon
and the Portland Timbers under-23
squad. Martinique controlled the
action through most of the rst half
but failed to score, partly because
of alert goalkeeping by Milan
Borjan but mostly because their
shots were missing the net.
Captain Kevin Parsemain was
the offensive leader for
Martinique, making passes to all
sides of the eld.
Canadas first scoring chance
came in the 10th minute when
Marcus Habers header, off a corner
kick, was saved by goalie Kevin
Olimpa. Martinique was spurred by
Parsemains scoring chance in the
20th minute. Frederic Piquionne
threaded a pass to Parsemain in the
box, but the shot was turned away
by Borjan.

LONG POND, Pa. Scott
Dixon felt like his losing streak
stretched as long as IndyCars
absence from Pocono.
After 24 years, the series
returned to the triangle track.
And it was a big welcome back
to Victory Lane for Dixon. Dixon
enjoyed it so much, he even had
two of his teammates tag along on
the podium.
Dixon led a monster day for
Chip Ganassi Racing, leading a
podium sweep for the team with a
win Sunday at the IndyCar Series
event at Pocono Raceway. He was
followed by Ganassi teammates
Charlie Kimball and Dario
Franchitti in IndyCars rst race at
Pocono since 1989.
Ganassi was waiting when
Dixon hopped out of the No. 9
Honda.
I said to him, This morning, I
didnt think wed be sitting here,
Dixon said. To say the least, it
was a little bit of a shock.
Dixon struggled this season to
make a serious run at wins and had
led only one
lap, at the
I n d i a n a p o l i s
500. He led the
final 27 at
Pocono for his
30th career
IndyCar victo-
ry. He snapped
a 13-race win-
less streak that
dated to the Aug. 12, 2012 race at
Mid-Ohio.
It has been a tough year,
Dixon said. Weve had some
great races and weve had a lot of
bad ones. Thats motor racing,
man.
He caught a big break when
Tony Kanaan clipped Dixons car
on a pass for the lead and was
forced to pit road. Dixon dominat-
ed down the stretch of the 400-
mile race and became IndyCars
eighth different winner in 11 races
this season.
Kanaan lost his bid at the Triple
Crown when he clipped his front
wing on Dixons car. Kanaan con-
nected with Dixon on a pass for
the lead on the 107th lap. Kanaan
had to pit three laps later and faded
to the back.
He lost the lead and a chance
for $1 million.
With Pocono back on the sched-
ule, IndyCar resurrected the Triple
Crown challenge, a three-race
competition for $1 million to the
driver that wins the Indianapolis
500, Pocono and the season nale
at Fontana. Adriver who wins two
of the three can win a $250,000
bonus from promotion sponsor
Fuzzys Vodka, leaving Kanaan
and Dixon still eligible for the
prize.
Kanaan had no idea he hit Dixon
and spent most of the rest of the
race a lap down. He nished 13th.
I made a mistake and it cost us
big, Kanaan said. I had a run on
Dixon but didnt really think that I
was closing that fast on him. We
had a car that was capable of win-
ning this race.
Andretti Autosport had three of
them after it qualied three drivers
on the front row. But James
Hinchcliffe and Ryan Hunter-Reay
were involved in accidents and
Marco Andretti battled fuel woes
over the nal laps.
Will Power was fourth and Josef
Newgarden fifth. Points leader
Helio Castroneves was eighth.
Dixons win helped push him to
fourth in the points standings. He
also moved into 10th on
IndyCars career wins list.
Considering the crazy and poor
results weve had throughout the
year, its still astonishing that we
are fourth in the championship,
he said.
This was the rst time Ganassi
swept a podium in any form of rac-
ing: IndyCar, CART, NASCAR or
Grand-Am. It was the 100th win
for Ganassis Target-sponsored
cars in all forms of motor sports
and the 200th in IndyCar competi-
tion for engine manufacturer
Honda.
I had no idea wed go 1-2-3,
Ganassi said. I was just hoping
for a decent nish today.
Kimball matched his career-best
nish and Franchitti had his rst
podium nish of the season.
When Franchitti walked into the
media center, he mused, Who saw
that one coming?
Certainly not the guys at
Andretti.
Andretti Autosports banner
qualifying effort that saw three
cars start on the front row was
wasted before the second lap.
Hinchcliffes bid for his series-
high fourth win was derailed when
he tagged the wall heading into
the rst turn of the rst lap.
Hinchcliffe, who started third,
limped as he walked out of his car.
He said he just banged up one of
his knees.
Hinchcliffe was cleared at the
ineld care center and worked the
rest of the race in ABCs broadcast

The car just snapped loose on
me, he said. We went a bit
aggressive on setup because we
had an understeering car all week,
and we didnt want that in the race.
Maybe we overstepped it a bit.

Dixon wins in return to Pocono
By Mark Long
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla.
Theres one certainty about racing
at NASCARs most unpredictable
tracks: a chaotic ending.
Jimmie Johnson dominated the
latest restrictor-plate race Saturday
night, winning at Daytona
International Speedway for the sec-
ond time this year and joining
another exclusive list at the famed
venue.
The ve-time Sprint Cup champi-
on became the rst driver since Hall
of Famer Bobby Allison in 1982 to
sweep both points races at Daytona
in the same season. Fireball
Roberts (1962), Cale Yarborough
(1968) and LeeRoy Yarbrough
(1969) also accomplished the feat.
Johnson joined them after lead-
ing 94 of 161 laps, including 55 of
the nal 57.
But like so many other races at
Daytona and Talladega, where
horsepower-sapping plates gener-
ally keep speeds below 200 mph, it
came with a frantic nish.
There were two multi-car wrecks
on the nal lap, the second one just
a few feet shy of the nish line.
Be glad you were sitting in the
stands and not in the cars, runner-
up Tony Stewart said.
Scott Speed and Carl Edwards got
together in turn 2, starting a six-car
pileup. Instead of ending the race
under caution, NASCAR decided to
let the cars race to the line.
With drivers maneuvering for
position through the nal turns,
David Gilliland and Danica Patrick
got tangled, turning Patricks car
into several others. Kyle Busch,
Ryan Newman, Ricky Stenhouse
Jr., Jeff Burton and other were
involved.
I asked my crew when the check-
ered fell to remind me why I do
this, driver/owner Michael
Waltrip said. Whats fun about it?
... I just know that 200 miles an
hour pushing and shoving this
is fun for the fans and its going to
be fun to watch back on TV. I wasnt
having any fun doing it.
I was too nervous. Id much
rather watch. Why dont I just watch
all the time? Ive got that option. I
dont know whats wrong with me.
Theres little drivers can do to
avoid all the turmoil that comes
with plate racing. It happens at just
about every race at Daytona and
Talladega, where drivers, fans and
everyone watching are always wait-
ing for the big one.
It usually happens late, too.
Two months ago at Talladega,
Stenhouse Jr. and J.J. Yeley trig-
gered a frightening crash in the
nal few laps that sent Kurt Buschs
car airborne and on top of
Newmans car.
On Saturday night, the race was
fairly clean until a six-car accident
with 11 laps remaining prompted a
red ag. That wreck included anoth-
er vicious hit for Denny Hamlin.
Hamlins car inexplicably turned
right and spun hard into the
frontstretch wall. It then turned
back into trafc and hit hard.
NASCAR plate racing yields another frantic finish

BAGNERES-DE-BIGORRE,
France The mighty mountains
of the Pyrenees offered at least two
important insights about Tour de
France leader Chris Froome: He
can land terrible blows to his
rivals with his grinding uphill
speed and can take their punches,
too. In short, if the Briton in the
yellow jersey perhaps isnt
unbeatable, he seems very close to
i t .
After nine hectic days of racing
over 1,513 kilometers (940
miles), the Tour luxuriates in its
rst rest day on
Monday. The
pause allows
the contenders
for victory in
Paris on July
21 to lick their
wounds and
regroup after
F r o o m e
knocked them
dizzy and grabbed the race lead
with a triumphant first day of
climbing in the Pyrenees on
Saturday. But theyll also be ruing
the opportunity they collectively
wasted the very next day on
Sunday to hurt Froome right back.
On what may well prove to have
been one of the toughest and deci-
sive days of this 100th Tour, and
certainly one of the most tactical
and interesting, Froomes rivals
isolated him from his Sky team-
mates and forced him to ride alone
one man against many up
four consecutive climbs as jagged
as sharks teeth. But they could
not make Froome crack.
That was one of the hardest
days that Ive ever had on a bike,
the 2012 Tour runner-up said after
defending his yellow jersey.
The rival who harassed Froome
most, with successive squirts of
acceleration on the last climb, was
Nairo Quintana. The lesson the
Colombian drew from this drama
amid pine forests and peaks with
stubborn patches of snow was:
That we can break down his team
a little, but that he can defend him-
self and is very strong.
Skys impressive climbing on
Saturday was in some respects
reminiscent of the way Lance
Armstrongs U.S. Postal Service
team would exhaust his rivals. But
the way Sky wilted on Sunday def-
initely was not. Doped up on hor-
mones, blood transfusions and
other performance-enhancers,
Armstrongs teammates rarely
looked human like this. This Tour
is the rst since Armstrong was
stripped last year of his seven
titles for serial doping.
Seemingly drained by their
monster efforts a day earlier,
Froomes support riders quickly
burned out. The day started badly
for Sky when Peter Kennaugh
crashed. He was treated for grazes
and continued. It also ended less
than ideally when Vasili
Kiryienka rode in too slowly and
missed the time cut, depriving
Froome of his services for the
Tours last two weeks.
Its quite nice to see that
theyre human, Froome said of
his teammates.

CAIRO (AP) Secular and lib-
eral factions in Egypts new lead-
ership worked Sunday to reach a
compromise with ultraconserva-
tive Islamists on a new prime min-
ister, with a liberal economist
emerging as a leading candidate
for the post to run the country
after the militarys ouster of
President Mohammed Morsi.
As the negotiations continued
over the post, the shows of
strength over the removal of
Egypts rst freely elected presi-
dent were far from ending, with
hundreds of thousands in the
streets Sunday from each side. The
military deployed troops at key
locations in Cairo and other cities
amid fears of renewed violence.
The Muslim Brotherhood
pushed ahead with its campaign of
protests aimed at forcing Morsis
reinstatement, bringing out large
crowds in new rallies. Its ofcials
vowed the group would not be ter-
rorized by arrests of their leaders
and the shutdown of their media
outlets.
The Brotherhoods opponents,
in turn, called out large rallies in
Tahrir Square and other squares in
Cairo and several cities to defend
against an Islamist counter-push.
The rallies took on a sharply
nationalist tone with effusive
praise of the military and strong
anti-American sentiment over per-
ceived U.S. support for Morsi and
his Brotherhood.
Military warplanes swooped
over the crowd lling Tahrir, draw-
ing a heart shape and an Egyptian
flag in the sky with colored
smoke. In the square, large ban-
ners read Obama, hands off, a
message to the USA. Obama sup-
ports the terrorists of 911 with a
picture of Obama with an
Islamists beard.
The tone appeared aimed at
drowning out cries from the
Brotherhood and its Islamist
allies that the armys toppling of
Morsi was a coup against democra-
cy. The anti-American slogans had
a double-edged message: painting
the Brotherhood as a tool of
Washington and pushing back
against U.S. concerns over the
militarys moves here.
Throughout Morsis year in
office, many of his opponents
accused the United States of back-
ing his administration.
Washington often underlined that
it was dealing with Morsi as the
countrys elected leader. Before
the wave of anti-Morsi protests
began on June 30, U.S.
Ambassador to Egypt Anne
Patterson said in a speech that she
was deeply skeptical protests
would be fruitful and defended U.S.
relations with Morsis Muslim
Brotherhood as necessary because
the group is part of the democrati-
cally elected Egyptian govern-
ment.
Since Morsis removal
Wednesday, it has tread carefully,
expressing concern without out-
right calling the armys move a
coup or denouncing Morsis
ouster.

LAC-MEGANTIC, Quebec As
reghters doused still burning oil
tanker cars, more bodies were
recovered Sunday in this devastat-
ed town in eastern Quebec, raising
the death toll to five after a run-
away train derailed, igniting
explosions and fires that
destroyed the downtown district.
With dozens of people reported
missing, authorities feared they
could find more bodies once they
reached the hardest-hit areas.
Quebec provincial police Lt.
Michel Brunet said Sunday that
about 40 people have been
reported missing, but cautioned
that the number could fluctuate
up or down.
We met many people who had
reported family members miss-
ing. Right now I can tell you
about 40, Brunet said.
Brunet confirmed two more
deaths early Sunday afternoon
after confirming two people were
found dead overnight. One death
was confirmed Saturday.
All but one of the 73 cars were
filled with oil, which was being
transported from North Dakotas
Bakken oil region to a refinery
in Saint John, New Brunswick.
The eruptions early Saturday
morning sent residents of Lac-
Megantic scrambling through
the streets under the intense heat
of towering fireballs and a red
glow that illuminated the night
sky.

PARATY, Brazil Brazils for-
eign minister said Sunday his gov-
ernment is worried by a report that
the United States has collected
data on billions of telephone and
email conversations in his coun-
try and promised an effort for
international protection of
Internet privacy.
The O Globo newspaper reported
over the weekend that information
released by NSA leaker Edward
Snowden shows that the number of
telephone and email messages
logged by the U.S. National Security
Agency in January alone was not far
behind the 2.3 billion reportedly
collected in the United States.
Foreign Minister Antonio
Patriota, speaking from the colo-
nial city of Paraty where he was
attending Brazils top literary fes-
tival, expressed deep concern at
the report that electronic and tele-
phone communications of
Brazilian citizens are being the
object of espionage by organs of
American intelligence.

AMMAN, Jordan A radical
Muslim preacher described as a
key al-Qaida operative in Europe
rejected terrorism charges Sunday
linked to alleged plots targeting
Americans and Israelis in Jordan,
his lawyer said, hours after Britain
deported him to bring an end to a
decade-long legal saga over his
extradition.
Jordan rst submitted an extradi-
tion request to U.K. authorities for
the militant cleric known as Abu
Qatada in 2001, but it was blocked
in British and European courts over
human rights concerns. Last month,
Britain and Jordan ratied a treaty
on torture aimed at easing those
worries, paving the way for the 53-
year-old preachers deportation.
Abu Qatada arrived at Ammans
civilian airport early Sunday on
board a British aircraft and was
immediately whisked away by
heavily armed anti-terrorism
police for questioning at a nearby
courthouse. Police sealed off the
area as the convoy drove against
trafc to the court building, just
across the street from the airport.
Armed policemen kept a crush of
journalists at bay.
After nearly two hours of ques-
tioning, Jordanian prosecutors
charged Abu Qatada with conspir-
ing to carry out terror attacks in
Jordan twice once in 1999 for a
foiled plot against the American
school in Amman and another time
in 2000 for allegedly targeting
Israeli and American tourists and
Western diplomats during new year
celebrations.
In both cases, Abu Qatada was
convicted in absentia years ago
and sentenced to life in prison.
With his return, those sentences
have been suspended and he will
receive a new trial.

O
ne need not look hard to nd a
humane society-written article
(anywhere in the United States!)
extolling the benets of opening your
home and heart to an older pet. You can call
animal welfare and shelter workers many
things, but age-ist isnt one! Our hearts go
out to all animals in our care, especially the
older animals we see being passed over just
because of their age. But today, I want to
make a plug for younger pets, specically
kittens. Kittens are adorable. Even a dyed-
in-the-wool dog lover couldnt disagree.
Kittens have boundless energy, and if you
bring them into your home at the right
time, they likely havent developed behav-
ioral issues or fears. Once kittens have
their vaccinations and a clean bill of health
from the adoption center youre visiting,
they should be healthy, which will keep
you away from vet bills. URI, or upper res-
piratory infection, which is like a kitty
cold, is the one condition to remain mind-
ful of with kittens. We all know that any
pets life is far too short. That said, adopt-
ing a kitten means you can enjoy their
companionship for many years. If you
have a resident cat or resident dog for that
matter, you may nd it easier to make the
new kitten a better playmate for your other
pets than an older cat who may not be as
eager for the company. The downsides of
adopting a kitten are probably obvious.
They might require too much of your time
or have too much energy for you. If you
have very young children and if these chil-
dren are especially grabby, a little kitten
may react more than a mature cat. For folks
who have weighed pros and cons and decid-
ed they would like to adopt a kitten, the
challenge can sometimes be nding one.
Im happy to say that Peninsula Humane
Society currently has close to 20 kittens
available for adoption.

NEW YORK The minions of
Despicable Me 2 ran away with
the July 4th box ofce, leaving
the Johnny Depp Western The
Lone Ranger in the dust.
According to studio estimates
Sunday, the Universal animated
sequel took in $82.5 million over
the weekend and $142.1 million
across the ve-day holiday win-
dow. Gore Verbinskis reimagin-
ing of the iconic lawman bombed
for the Walt Disney Co., opening
with just $29.4 million over the
weekend, and a disappointing
$48.9 million since Wednesday.
The trouncing for Disney was
especially painful because of the
high cost of The Lone Ranger,
which reportedly cost at least
$225 million to make. Made by
the same team that created the
lucrative Disney franchise
Pirates of the Caribbean (the
four lm series that grossed $3.7
billion worldwide) the Western
drew bad reviews and failed to cap-
ture the attention of younger
moviegoers.
We thought it would appeal to a
broader audience than it did, Dave
Hollis, head of distribution for
Disney, said.
Based on the long-running radio
program begun in 1933 and the TV
series that debuted in 1949, the
Lone Ranger brand proved a
musty one. The audience for the
lm skewed heavily toward older
moviegoers, with 68 percent of its
audience older than 25.
You think that you have every-
thing in place, said Hollis, list-
ing the proven box-ofce com-
modities of Depp, Verbinski and
producer Jerry Bruckheimer. Even
when you have all the ingredients
for what you think will be a four-
quadrant, everybody picture,
sometimes it doesnt work out that
way.
The poor performance of The
Lone Ranger called to mind a pre-
vious bomb for Disney: last years
similarly-budgeted sci- adventure
John Carter, which opened with
$30.1 million.
But The Lone Ranger, which
stars Armie Hammer as the masked
lawman, will likely fare better
than that disappointment, since
Depps international star power
should bring in better worldwide
business. It started with $24.3
million abroad, opening in about
30 percent of its planned interna-
tional market.
While critics skewered the lm,
it did earn a B+ CinemaScore grade
from moviegoers. But The Lone
Ranger is nevertheless likely to
be a sizeable write-down for
Disney and could impact the com-
panys stock price when markets
reopen Monday.
Everybody beat up on The
Lone Ranger pretty hard, said
Paul Dergarabedian, analyst for
box-office tracker
Hollywood.com. Everything was
just not going in its favor.
On the other hand, Universal
made Despicable Me 2 for the
comparatively small amount of
$76 million.

airplane to become a legitimate machine in
our society. Speed records were being
achieved almost every day; long-distance
races were very popular as well as achiev-
ing long-distance records across bodies of
water. French born New York hotelier
(Lafayette Hotel) Raymond Orteig offered
$25,000 to the pilot of the first successful
nonstop flight made in either direction
between New York and Paris within five
years of the prizes establishment. Five
years passed and the Orteig prize had not
been awarded. Anumber of pilots had tried
and, on Sept. 21, 1926, pilot Rene Fonck
crashed on takeoff from Paris. The plane
was too heavy and, although Fonck sur-
vived the crash, two other men died. Two
Naval aviators died in the plane they were
testing for the flight. Two other pilots
were never heard of after crossing the coast
of Ireland after leaving France in quest of
the $25,000.
The interest was high by the public to
see this record achieved. Mr. Orteig
extended the prize for another five years.
Twenty-five-year-old Charles Lindbergh
wanted this prize and he felt he could
achieve it. He had ordered a fabric-covered,
single-seat, single-engine Ryan NYP
high-wing monoplane designed by Donald
Hall and custom built by B. F. Mahoneys
Ryan Aircraft Company of San Diego,
Calif. It had one Wright J-5 Whirlwind
radial piston engine rated at 225 horse-
power with the maximum speed of 130
mph.
Burdened by its heavy load of 450 U.S.
gallons of gasoline weighing 2,710
pounds and hampered by a muddy field, the
Spirit of Saint Louis lifted off of Roosevelt
Field (by New York City) at 7:52 a.m.
Friday, May 20, 1927. The next 33.5 hours
tested Lindberghs endurance to the limit.
Almost crashing into the ocean, he pulled
the plane up as he skimmed the waves at
couple of times. Exhausted and unable to
eat the sandwich he brought along due to
the odor of the gas fumes in the plane, he
had to continually look through a
periscope to see over the gas tanks to nav-
igate by the stars. Icing on the planes
wings was a continual concern.
He made it though. He landed a Le
Bourget Airport at 10:22 p.m. Saturday
May 21, 1927. A crowd of more than
10,000 greeted him to the biggest celebra-
tion imaginable until the police could get
him to safety in a nearby hangar.
The little known former U.S. Air Mail
pilot was about to begin a virtually instan-
taneous world fame.

appears in the Monday edition of the Daily
Journal.
HISTORY
speed of 137 knots per hour, or 157 mph,
said National Transportation Safety Board
chief Deborah Hersman at a brieng Sunday
on the crash.
Were not talking about a few knots,
she said.
Hersman said the aircrafts stick shaker
a piece of safety equipment that warns
pilots of an impending stall went off
moments before the crash. The normal
response to a stall warning is to increase
speed to recover control.
There was an increase several seconds
before the crash, she said, basing her com-
ments on an evaluation of the cockpit voice
and ight data recorders that contain hun-
dreds of different types of information on
what happened to the plane.
And at 1.5 seconds before impact, there
was a call for an aborted landing, she said.
The new details helped shed light on the
nal moments of the airliner as the crew
tried desperately to climb back into the sky,
and conrmed what survivors and other wit-
nesses said they saw: a slow-moving airlin-
er.
Pilots normally try to land at the target
speed, in this case 137 knots, plus an addi-
tional ve more knots, said Bob Coffman,
an American Airlines captain who has own
777s. He said the brieng raises an impor-
tant question: Why was the plane going so
slow?
The planes Pratt & Whitney engines were
on idle, Hersman said. The normal procedure
in the Boeing 777, a wide-body jet, would
be to use the autopilot and the throttle to
provide power to the engine all the way
through to landing, Coffman said.
There was no indication in the discus-
sions between the pilots and the air trafc
controllers that there were problems with
the aircraft.
Among the questions investigators are
trying to answer was what, if any, role the
deactivation of a ground-based landing
guidance system played in the crash. Such
systems help pilots land, especially at air-
ports like San Francisco where fog can
make landing challenging.
Altogether, 305 of the 307 people aboard
made it out alive in what survivors and res-
cuers described as nothing less than aston-
ishing after a frightful scene of re burning
inside the fuselage, pieces of the aircraft
scattered across the runway and people ee-
ing for their lives.
Struck on the runway?
San Mateo County Coroner Robert
Foucrault said senior San Francisco Fire
Department ofcials notied him and his
staff at the crash site on Saturday that one of
the 16-year-olds may have been struck on
the runway.
Foucrault said an autopsy he expects to be
completed by Monday will involve deter-
mining whether the girls death was caused
by injuries suffered in the crash or a sec-
ondary incident.
He said he did not get a close enough look
at the victims on Saturday to know whether
they had external injuries.
Foucrault said one of the bodies was found
on the tarmac near where the planes tail
broke off when it
slammed into the runway.
The other was found on
the left side of the plane
about 30 feet away from
where the jetliner came to
rest after it skidded down
the runway.
The ight originated in
Shanghai, China,
stopped over in Seoul,
South Korea, before mak-
ing the nearly 11-hour trip to San
Francisco. The South Korea-based airline
said four South Korean pilots were on board,
three of whom were described as skilled.
Among the travelers were citizens of
China, South Korean, the United States,
Canada, India, Japan, Vietnam and France.
There were at least 70 Chinese students and
teachers heading to summer camps, accord-
ing to Chinese authorities.
As the plane approached the runway under
clear skies a luxury at an airport and city
known for intense fog people in nearby
communities could see the aircraft was y-
ing low and swaying erratically from side to
side.
On board, Fei Xiong, from China, was
traveling to California so she could take her
8-year-old son to Disneyland. The pair was
sitting in the back half of the plane. Xiong
said her son sensed something was wrong.
My son told me: The plane will fall
down, its too close to the sea, she said. I
told him: Baby, its OK, well be ne.
On audio recordings from the air trafc
tower, controllers told all pilots in other
planes to stay put after the crash. All run-
ways are closed. Airport is closed. San
Francisco tower, said one controller.
At one point, the pilot of a United
Airlines plane radioed.
We see people ... that need immediate
attention, the pilot said. They are alive
and walking around.
Think you said people are just walking
outside the airplane right now? the con-
troller replied.
Yes, answered the pilot of United Flight
885. Some people, it looks like, are strug-
gling.
When the plane hit the ground, oxygen
masks dropped down, said Xu Da, a product
manager at an Internet company in
Hangzhou, China, who was sitting with his
wife and teenage son near the back of the
plane.
When he stood up, he said he could see
sparking perhaps from exposed electri-
cal wires.
Gaping hole
He turned and could see the tail where the
galley was torn away, leaving a gaping hole
through which they could see the runway.
Once on the tarmac, they watched the plane
catch re, and reghters hose it down.
I just feel lucky, said Xu, whose family
suffered some cuts and have neck and back
pain.
In the chaotic moments after the landing,
when baggage was tumbling from the over-
head bins onto passengers and people all
around her were screaming, Wen Zhang
grabbed her 4-year-old son, who hit the seat
in front of him and broke his leg.
Spotting a hole at the back of the jumbo
jet where the bathroom had been, she carried
her boy to safety.
I had no time to be scared, she said.

downtown.
The latest rumors are fueled by two
independent actions rst, the citys
survey of downtowns parking invento-
ry and separately the shockingly large
numbers being painted onto parking
stalls without a clear-cut explanation.
The latter certainly alarmed
Councilman Matt Grocott a long-
time advocate of keeping parking free
who immediately headed to City Hall
to see if the numbering was a a covert
move by city staff toward eventually
installing a meter kiosk and charging
for parking.
Grocott said he was surprised to see
workers painting the large numbers on
a Thursday morning and was told at City
Hall it was for data collection and
enforcement. But Grocott said no
parking enforcement hes ever seen
requires numbers as opposed to street
addresses outside of paid parking. So
why would San Carlos, which currently
has free albeit time-limited parking,
need numbers?
The real answer to the numbers is a lot
less eyebrow-raising, according to city
ofcials.
The numbers are for sensors embed-
ded in the spaces for a year-pilot pro-
gram launched last year with company
Streetline which developed an app let-
ting motorists know real-time parking
availability in the downtown. Similar
parking app programs also exist in San
Mateo and Redwood City. But while
those cities already have numbered
spaces because of paid parking, the free
slots in San Carlos do not.
The enforcement is one of the citys
two-hour time limits, not of future paid
parking, Moura said.
On Tuesday, Public Works Director
Jay Walter met with community devel-
opment and police bureau staff about
how the wireless parking app can be
used to manage that.
As for the 12-inch lettering size? The
contractor got the instructions wrong,
Moura said. The letters were supposed
to be 4 inches.
After Grocotts trip to City Hall,
work was halted and the lettering
removed until after Walter and the oth-
ers nail down a more specic plan. The
City Council will get an update most
likely at a late August meeting.
Although city officials insist the
Parker app and space numbering has
nothing to do with paid parking,
Councilman Mark Olbert said he under-
stands why residents immediately jump
to that conclusion. He also said
motorists need to understand that the
cost of free parking still exists.
Parking is not free. Its all a question
of whos paying for it, he said.
The worry over the wireless projects
paint job comes as the city holds com-
munity meetings on its downtown
parking and surveys merchants and res-
idents. The Community Development
Department wants to know how much
parking is used and on what days and at
what times. The evaluation also looks
at how long cars are parking in key
locations throughout downtown.
The downtown parking study meting
is 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. Thursday, July
18 at the San Carlos Library, second
oor community meeting room, 600
Elm St., San Carlos. Parking surveys

of a series of presentations by groups
and agencies seeking a piece of
Measure A money. Measure A was
approved by voters last fall and the
half-cent sales tax is estimated to
bring in approximately $60 million
annually for the next 10 years.
The Board of Supervisors will also
hear a $6.5 million request to implement
the North Fair Oaks Community Plan
and more than $9 million for prevention
and early intervention of children at risk
of abuse, trauma or mental illness.
Even if the Board of Supervisors tenta-
tively approve the proposals, it must
still formally adopt the plans this fall
after all requests are vetted.
Presentations on two large funding
requests seismic upgrades at Seton
Medical Center in Daly City and a cash
infusion to SamTrans have yet to be
heard.
The request for the Community
Policing Units School Resource Ofce
Program may be joined by a three-year,
$125,000 grant from the federal
Department of Justice for the two
deputies. The unit currently has ve
deputies and one sergeant which provide
a 10 to 1 ratio; the addition of two more
school resource ofcers would drop the
rate to 7 to 1 and allow each ofcer to
focus on safety plans for each to which
they are assigned. The county estimates
40 safety plans will be in place in 2013-
2014, with the average number of week-
ly hours on campus by each ofcer jump-
ing from 16 to 24.
The ofcers investigate crimes, pro-
vide security and crowd control at school
functions and, if necessary, make home
visits. The program serves a total of 50
schools 19 in the unincorporated area
and 31 in the cities of Half Moon Bay,
Millbrae, Portola Valley, San Carlos and
Woodside and more than 19,000 stu-
dents annually.
One new deputy will help with pro-
grams targeting North Fair Oaks, East
Menlo Park and the countys coastside.
The new deputies will also be charged
with conducting lunchtime soccer pro-
grams, offering drug education and
teaching gang resistance, County
Manager John Maltbie wrote in a
report to the Board of Supervisors on
school safety.
Data implies crimes goes down with
these programs and a school resource
ofcer is an ideal position to break
the culture of silence that has existed
in many of our schools, Maltbie
wrote in the report.
Following in those steps of preven-
tion, county supervisors will also con-
sider the request to better the way
schools and county services collabo-
rate on averting crises for at-risk
youth. Childrens needs along with
school safety were priorities in the
early discussions of Measure Aalloca-
tions and, on Tuesday, the Board of
Supervisors will be asked to act by par-
tially funding a coordinator for
schools and the countys Child and
Youth System of Care committee
through the County Office of
Education. The money would addition-
ally fund six part-time regional
liaisons to deliver behavioral health
services at schools that could curb tru-
ancy, recognize mental health prob-
lems and respond earlier to those on
the edge of needing special education
or falling into crime.
At the same meeting, supervisors
will also switch gears to consider the
larger community, specically imple-
menting improvements in North Fair
Oaks ranging from land use and trans-
portation to health and wellness. The
requested funds $3.4 million the
rst year followed by $3.1 million the
next would be used to redesign
Middleeld Road to make it safer over
the next four years, add signs announc-
ing Welcome to the North Fair Oaks
Community at four spots, install
eight anti-dumping signs along the
rail corridor, outreach to the communi-
ty about the plan for the next three
years and fund site preparation for a
bike-share pod at the Fair Oaks
Community Center/North Fair Oaks
Library.
If the Board of Supervisors tenta-
tively approves the proposals, it will
also direct Maltbie to include a con-
struction schedule and nancing plan
for the ve projects in the scal year
2013-2015 recommended budget.
Nearly $16.3 million in Measure A
funds have been tentatively approved
for scal year 2013-2014 and just shy
of $9.55 million for the year after.
Those allocations include money for
county re vehicle replacement, uni-
versal preschool, summer library read-
ing programs and library capital needs, a
coastside mobile health clinic, home-
less outreach and re-establishing a
stand-alone Parks Department.
The Board of Supervisors meets 9 a.m.
Tuesday, July 9 in Board Chambers, 400

WASHINGTON San
Francisco International Airport,
with its tightly spaced runways
that extend right up to the water,
requires more skill for landing
than most of the nations big air-
ports, experienced airline pilots
say. That challenge was further
complicated by the shutdown of a
ground-based instrument landing
system and the movement of run-
way thresholds prior to the crash
Saturday of a Korean airliner.
The instrument landing system,
or ILS, uses radio signals to create
a three-dimensional glide slope
for planes to follow so they arent
too high, too low or too far to the
right or left. The ILS for runway 28
left, where the plane crashed, had
been shut down since June and the
beginning of the runway was
moved 300 feet to the west to
accommodate construction at the
airport, according to pilots who
use the airport.
National Transportation Safety
Board Chairman Deborah Hersman
said Sunday investigators will
look at what role, if any, the
absence of the ILS may have
played in the accident.
Airline pilots with experience
ying the Boeing 777 or ying
into San Francisco told The
Associated Press that the Federal
Aviation Administration notied
pilots in June that the ILS was
turned off. Pilots were also warned
that the beginning of runways 28
left and right had been moved.
Awhite line that previously des-
ignated the end of the runway was
blacked out and a new line painted
further west, said Rory Kay, a
training captain for a major airline
who landed a plane at San
Francisco the day before the crash.
The change in the runway line
might have added an element of
confusion to the landing, he said.
All Boeing 777s, like most
modern airliners, have cockpit
computers that use GPS to create a
glide slope for landing that is
nearly as good as the ground-based
ILS, said Bob Coffman, an
American Airlines captain who
formerly ew the 777.
It would be standard procedure
for pilots to create their own glide
path before landing, but the com-
puters database relies on where
the runway normally begins, he
said. Moving the runway thresh-
old would invalidate the computer-
generated slope, he said.
Without the ILS, and with infor-
mation in hand that the threshold
had been moved, its likely that
the pilots of the Asiana plane were
landing using other instruments
and a greater reliance on visual
cues, Coffman said.
Its standard procedure for pilots
to refer to FAA notices on ILS
shutdowns and movement of run-
way thresholds in a pre-landing
briefing, so the Asiana pilots
should have been aware that they
were going to have to rely more
heavily on visual cues, pilots
said. The challenge of landing a
wide-bodied airliner like the 777
using visual cues is greater than if
an ILS or a computer-generated
glide slope were available, pilots
said.
The Asiana plane was ying well
below its target speed of 137
knots during the landing attempt,
and in the last seconds before the
crash the pilots received an auto-
mated warning that the plane was
about to stall, Hersman told
reporters at a brieng.
Coffman said he could think of
no reason why the plane would be
flying that slowly unless the
pilots had turned off the autopilot,
which controls the aircrafts navi-
gational systems, or the
autothrottle, which controls
power to the engines. That would
be highly unusual, especially in a
wide-bodied jet like the 777, he
said.
