Jurors deliberated less than a day
before convicting Stuart James
Forrest, the countys former chief
probation officer heading up a
nearly 500-member department,
on two felony counts of possess-
ing child pornography.
The verdict came early Friday
afternoon, less than a day after
jurors began considering whether
Forrest was a personal porn col-
lector with a fetish for young nude
and bound boys, as the prosecu-
tion contended, or a dedicated
administrator conducting research
for a new human
trafficking pro-
tocol in his
department.
Forrest, 62,
shook his head
from side to side
when the first
verdict was read
but showed no
emotion with
the second,
according to courtwatchers.
He now faces up to three years
and eight months in prison and

sary of the armistice that ended the
Korean War. Sometimes called the
Forgotten War, it was a life-
changing experience for Ted
Pallas, of San Bruno.
Fighting for the United States,
Pallas, 85 spent almost his entire
in Korea as a prisoner of war by
China, who was stationed in Korea
at the time. Pallas, a San Francisco
native, was the rst U.S. soldier
photographed in the war by fellow

Wars U.S.legacies:
Permanent troops,
about 7,900 MIAs
By Robert Burns
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Sixty years
after it nished ghting in Korea,
the U.S. is still struggling with
two legacies that are reminders of
the costs political, military and
human that war can impose on
the generations that follow.
The rst is the leading role that
America still is committed to play-
ing in defending South Korea
should the 1950-53 Korean War
reignite.
Washington has tried for years
to wean its ally, South Korea, off
its dependence on the U.S. mili-
tary by setting a target date for
switching from American to
Korean control of the forces that
would defend the country in the
event North Korea again attacked
the South. That target date has
slipped from 2012 to 2015 and,
just this past week, American of-
cials said the Koreans are infor-
mally expressing interest in push-
ing it back still further.
The second is the seemingly
endless challenge of accounting
for thousands of U.S. servicemen
still listed as missing in action.
That mission, which competes for
Pentagon resources with demands
to also retrieve and identify MIAs
from the battleelds of World War

On Friday, Aragon
also tried firing his

ney but was denied.
Authorities say
Aragon entered the con-
venience store on El
Camino Real the morn-
ing of Feb. 2 and bought
some taquitos before
leaving. A few minutes
later, he reportedly came back and hid two
pieces of candy in his pants before trying
to leave without paying. When the clerk
confronted Aragon, police say he pulled up
his shirt to show a weapon that turned out
to be a BB handgun and said he had no
money.
A second clerk called police but, before
they arrived, Aragon purchased some more
taquitos before leaving in his car. He was
arrested nearby and, during his booking
into jail, authorities reported finding a bag
of methamphetamine concealed in his rec-
tum.
Competency is a persons ability to aid
in his or her own defense unlike sanity
which is the mental state at the time of an

A 36-year-old man accused of savagely
beating a gay man with a large bicycle U-
lock because of his sexual orientation
appeared in court Friday on three felony
charges.
Santos Manuel Marquez is charged with
assault with a deadly weapon, assault by
means of force causing great bodily injury
and battery causing serious bodily injury.
Prosecutors also allege Marquez commit-
ted a hate crime.
Hate crime charges are rare in San Mateo
County and arent always filed in assaults
because there is a higher standard of proof.
However, Chief Deputy District Attorney
Karen Guidotti said there
is no other apparent
motive for the early
Saturday morning beat-
i ng.
That is the subject of
why the defendant didnt
want to be seen with the
victim. He didnt want
people to think he was
gay, Guidotti said.
Santos was arrested
Wednesday night, a few days after police
found the 55-year-old victim suffering
from serious injuries to his head and face.
The man had been assaulted while walking
toward the 700 block of Santa Inez Avenue
in San Mateo, according to police.
When police arrived at Marquezs home
on the 300 block of North Humboldt
Street, he fled out a window but was
detained after a short chase. Police report-
ed finding the U-lock used in the attack.
Marquez remains in custody.
He has prior convictions for domestic
violence and disturbing the peace.

Hotel bomb scare
suspect nowfit for trial
A36-year-old Japanese man committed to
a state mental hospital after reportedly stuff-
ing a homemade bomb in the microwave of
his San Mateo hotel room in September is
now able to stand trial, according to doctors
at the facility.
Takumi Hombu, of Japan, appeared in
court Friday to certify his restoration of
competency and reinstate two felony
charges of possessing an explosive device
or substance. He was scheduled for a review
conference Aug. 1 followed by an Aug. 8
preliminary hearing.
San Mateo police arrested Hombu Sept.
25, 2012 after responding to calls from the
Comfort Inn manager about a customer who
had been there several days and refused to
leave when asked because of his mess.
Officers discovered a
homemade explosive
device inside the
microwave and called in
the bomb squad.
An explosives expert
concluded the device could
have detonated and started
a re if the microwave had
been turned on but
Hombu, who speaks little
English, claimed through an interpreter he
could not be arrested because the bomb did
not explode, according to prosecutors.
Hombu will now move toward trial unless
his defense attorney ghts the conclusion
by Napa State Hospital medical staff that his
client is now able to aid in his own defense.
Hombu remains in custody.

HAIRCUT (reg.$14)
By David Egan
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
In January 2011, Al-Qaida executed two
French volunteers in Northern Africa.
Hostility was at an all-time high in the cap-
ital city of Niger as it was inltrated by the
radical group.
Mike Mitchell, 56, was warned by family
members to avert the growing aggression.
They told me not to go, but I told them if
I didnt go, Al-Qaida wins, said Mitchell.
Brushing aside his familys cries, he trav-
eled to the troubled country with a helping
hand and a soccer ball.
Entering the city, he could sense the glar-
ing eyes piercing him.
I wanted to prove this theory I had, so I
went back to my car and grabbed a soccer
ball, said Mitchell.
He passed the ball to the men and he said
the tension evaporated with one kick.
According to Mitchell, he was able to nd a
common ground with these strangers,
because soccer helps alleviate violence.
Early years
Mitchell attended California State
University, Chico where he received his
bachelors degree in physical education and
played for Chico States mens soccer team.
He was selected for the United States
University All-Star soccer team and traveled
throughout Africa. After graduating, he
joined the Peace Corps as a volunteer in
Niger, West Africa.
I was there from 1983 to 1985 and they
asked me to play for their local team, said
Mitchell.
He played for Equipe Espoir, Team Hope,
that had never won a championship. The
team didnt even have a soccer ball with
which to practice. At the first practice,
Mitchell brought 15 soccer balls.
It literally went from a sad scenario to an
uplifting scene, said Mitchell.
In 1984, they won Niger National
Championship for the rst time.
The celebration was overshadowed by
Nigers worst drought ever.
Ababy died in my arms due to the starva-
tion, said Mitchell.
People were dying all around him, he said,
and the experience left an impression on
him.
I was hit hard physically, psychologi-
cally and mentally, said Mitchell.
He felt no one could relate to him when he
returned to the states, so he turned to alco-
hol to numb the pain.
I cant forget what I saw in Africa, said
Mitchell.
When he returned to school for his mas-
ters degree, he wrote a thesis on his experi-
ences in Niger. His professor didnt believe
a sport could change the course of human
aggression.
My professor said my paper was a
hypothesis, not a thesis, said Mitchell.
He shook his professors hand and told
him he would do his best to prove his the-
sis. This is how his journey began.
Project Play

his return from Niger in 1985. Mitchell
gave up drinking with the help of his fami-

You cant help others without helping

The beginning wasnt easy. From 1991-

He resorted to using his companys clients

Mitchell.
Afew of his clients obliged and donated to

Mom Recovered with Us
from her hospitalization and was
able to move back home.
Always Welcome!
OAKLAND One of the states biggest
health insurers, Kaiser Permanente, is draw-
ing complaints from employers who say
the companys policies are no longer the
quality care bargain they once were.
Kaiser ofcials reject the criticism, say-
ing its still a great bargain with prices that
are often 10 percent below its rivals, the
Los Angeles Times reported.
In recent weeks, though, ofcials in Los
Angeles, San Francisco and at the
California Public Employees Retirement
System bristled at Kaisers latest rate hikes.
Kaisers premiums for a family in Los
Angeles have increased 34 percent in the
past ve years. City budget ofcial Miguel
Santana said hes satised with the medical
care he receives, but the citys bill is anoth-
er matter.
Kaiser takes us for granted, and the frus-
trating thing is they are not willing to have
a discussion about their increases, Santana
said.
Many ofcials are calling for more trans-
parency on costs and pricing and are sup-
porting state legislation, SB746, because it
would require more disclosure. Other health
care providers across the country are facing
increasing pressure to explain rising costs
and spending.
For its part, Kaiser says it provides
employers detailed data on their medical
costs, but it cannot be compared with other
insurers because it operates so differently.
Employers and lawmakers are trying to
force us to report information in the same
fashion as every other health plan, which
basically breaks us apart at the seams,
Teresa Stark, Kaisers director of govern-
ment affairs, told the newspaper for a story
Wednesday. It is undoing everything about
Kaiser Permanente that does make us spe-
cial. The message is Kaiser, you are doing it
all wrong.
Unlike fee-for-service care, Kaiser col-
lects an upfront premium to cover all care.
Kaiser runs 37 hospitals nationwide and
employs 17,000 doctors.
Ofcials at CalPERS, the nations third-
largest health care buyer, say Kaisers pre-
miums have gone up 65 percent since 2007.
Other HMO premiums have gone up in that
time, but not as much. By comparison, Blue
Shield of California went up 50 percent and
Anthem Blue Cross increased by 43 per-
cent.
Public officials criticize Kaiser for rate hikes
Kaiser takes us for granted, and the frustrating thing is
they are not willing to have a discussion about their increases.

SACRAMENTO The nal ballots were
counted Friday in a special election for a San
Joaquin Valley state

Republican cherry farmer
Andy Vidaks defeat of
Democrat Leticia Perez in
a seat long held by
Democrats.
Vidaks victory in the
16th Senate district
shrinks the Democrats
supermajority in the
state Senate and provides a lift for
Californias struggling Republican Party.
Democrats had hoped to retain the seat as
they face a likely ght next year to maintain
their supermajority status in the Senate.
Vidak beat Perez by a margin of 52 percent
to 48 percent, according to the secretary of
states ofce. Perez, a Kern County supervi-
sor, conceded the race a day after Tuesdays
election.
Senate President Pro Tem Darrell
Steinberg, D-Sacramento, said in a written
statement that Democrats expect to win
another seat in a Southern California dis-
trict, where a primary is scheduled for
September and a general election for
November, if necessary.

Ariel Castro pleads guilty in Ohio kidnap case
CLEVELAND A man accused of imprisoning three
women in his home and subjecting them to rapes and beat-
ings for a decade avoided the death penal-
ty Friday, pleading guilty in a deal that
will keep him in prison for life.
The captor is now the captive,
Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Tim
McGinty said of 53-year-old Ariel Castro.
The womens escape from Castros
home two months ago at rst brought joy
to the city where they had become house-
hold names after years of searches, pub-
licity and vigils, then despair at revela-
tions of their treatment.
Their rescue brought shocking allegations that Castro
fathered a child with one of the women, induced ve miscar-
riages in another by starving and punching her, and assault-
ed one with a vacuum cord around her neck when she tried to
escape.
No death penalty for
Snowden if convicted, U.S. says
WASHINGTON Striving to get Edward Snowden back to
America, U.S., Attorney General Eric Holder has assured the
Russian government the U.S. has no plans
to seek the death penalty for the former
National Security Agency systems analyst.
In a letter dated Tuesday, the attorney
general said the criminal charges
Snowden now faces in this country do not
carry the death penalty and the U.S. will
not seek his execution even if he is
charged with additional serious crimes.
Holders letter followed news reports
that Snowden, who leaked details of top
secret U.S. surveillance programs, has
led papers seeking temporary asylum in
Russia on grounds that if he were returned to the United States
he would be tortured and would face the death penalty.
Manning arguments wrap up; judge to deliberate
FORT MEADE, Md. Army Pfc. Bradley Mannings fate
was in the hands of a military judge Friday after nearly two
months of conicting portrayals of the
soldier: a traitor who gave WikiLeaks
classied secrets for worldwide attention
and a young, naive intelligence analyst
who wanted people to know about the
atrocities of war.
Judge Col. Denise Lind started deliber-
ating on the 21 charges Manning faces,
but she did not say when she would rule,
only that she will give the public one
days notice before her announcement.
The most serious charge is aiding the
enemy, which carries a potential life sentence in prison.

WASHINGTON Someone splat-
tered green paint on the Lincoln
Memorial early Friday, but the statue
of the 16th president was reopened by
nightfall after the paint was washed
away.
The apparent vandalism was discov-
ered around 1:30 a.m. Friday on the
statue, the pedestal and the oor, U.S.
Park Police said. No words, letters or
symbols were visible in the paint.
The marble Lincoln statute had green
paint on its shin, coattail, chair and
base, as well as paint on the oor of
the memorial building.
Capt. Steven Booker said the paint
spill appears intentional based off of
the splatter. Police were reviewing
security camera footage to try to iden-
tify possible suspects, he said.
No suspects had been identied by
Friday afternoon. Police ofcials said
they would not release the security
footage because the investigation is
ongoing.
The memorial chamber was closed
all day to allow a National Park Service
crew to nish cleaning up the paint.
Workers spent hours using pressurized
hoses and a chemical paint remover to
try to wash away the paint.
National Park Service spokeswoman
Carol Johnson said the memorial will
be returned to the condition it was in
before the vandalism. She said the
work was going well by late Friday.
It is not permanent damage, she
said. Our historic preservation crew
knows exactly what they need to do.
The memorial, one of the most pop-
ular sites on the National Mall, was
dedicated in 1922 to President
Abraham Lincoln. The building was
designed by Henry Bacon, and Daniel
French sculpted the statue of Lincoln.
It sits at the opposite end of the
National Mall from the Capitol, facing
the Washington Monument.

WASHINGTON The Obama admin-
istration is planning to transfer two
Guantanamo Bay detainees to Algeria,
the rst movement of terrorist suspects
from the prison since the president
announced a renewed push to close the
contentious military-run facility in
Cuba.
The White House said Friday it was
starting the transfers as part of
President Barack Obamas goal to close
the prison, a campaign promise that
has eluded him since he took ofce. The
move signaled a new push to reduce the
population of 166 detainees at the
prison, where dozens are on a hunger
strike to draw attention to their inde-
nite detention.
The White House said the two
detainees will not be identied until
after the transfer, which cant come
until after a 30-day waiting period.
Administration ofcials also wouldnt
say what security assurances they had
from the Algerian government as part
of the arrangement.
An administration ofcial said the
detainees were chosen because Algeria
is a close U.S. ally that has successful-
ly managed detainees in the past
none of the previous 12 to be released
have returned to terrorist activities,
unlike some returned to other countries.
The ofcial, speaking on a condition of
anonymity without authorization to
publicly discuss the process, said it has
been in the works since several months
before Obama announced his intention
this spring to push anew for closure.
Pentagon Press Secretary George
Little said Defense Secretary Chuck
Hagel signed off on the transfer based
on the recommendation of an intera-
gency team after a monthslong review.
As part of the certication process that
has been required by Congress for more
than two years, Guantanamo detainees
can be transferred if the defense secre-
tary certies that the individual is not at
risk to engage in terrorist activities.
Thats a high bar that had slowed the
transfer process with 166 remaining at
Guantanamo, with the last transfer in
September 2012.

CAIRO Called out by the army,
the largest crowds in 2 1/2 years of
upheaval lled Egypts streets Friday,
while ousted President Mohammed
Morsi was formally placed under
investigation on a host of allegations
including murder and conspiracy with
the Palestinian militant group Hamas.
Morsis supporters also showed no
signs of backing down, though they
turned out in vastly smaller numbers.
The demonstrations in Cairo were
mostly peaceful into the evening. But
by late Friday night in Cairo, police
red tear gas to disperse hundreds of
Morsi supporters near a sit-in they
held for weeks, setting off clashes that
lasted into early Saturday morning
in a possible sign of a new intolerance
for marches that block city streets. A
eld hospital doctor said seven pro-
testers were killed and hundreds
injured.
In the city of Alexandria, seven peo-
ple were killed and over 100 were
injured in clashes between supporters
and opponents of Morsi, ofcials said.
The announcement by prosecutors of
the investigation against Morsi,
which is likely to pave the way to a
formal indictment and eventually a
trial, was the rst word on his legal
status since he was deposed by the mil-
itary July 3. Since then, the Islamist
leader has been held incommunicado in
a secret location.
Both sides tried to show how much
public support they enjoy. But the mil-
lions who turned out for the pro-army
demonstrations overwhelmed the
streets in multiple cities in Egypt,
including some that rarely seen any
rallies since the 2011 uprising.
Throngs of people turned out in
Cairos Tahrir Square and in other
cities, answering a call by army chief
Gen. Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi, who urged
them to give him a mandate to stop
potential terrorism by supporters of
Morsis Muslim Brotherhood.
Portraits of the smiling el-Sissi in
sunglasses dominated the crowd in
Tahrir and one near the presidential
palace across town. Posters with his
picture were emblazoned with the
words the love of the people, and
demonstrators wore small photos of
him around their necks or carried a pic-
ture of his face on an Egyptian one-
pound note.
Security was heavy after el-Sissi
vowed to protect the rallies from
attacks by rivals. Tanks guarded one
entrance to Tahrir and police were sta-
tioned at other parts.

Rios Copacabana stages show for pope
RIO DE JANEIRO Pope Francis presided over one of
the most solemn rites of the Catholic Church on Friday, a
procession re-enacting Christs crucixion that received a
Broadway-like treatment befitting its
improbable location, Rios hedonistic
Copacabana beach.
Copacabana, which hosts Carnival and
Rolling Stones concerts when bikini-
clad beauties arent sunbathing on its
white sands, lived up to its reputation by
staging a wildly theatrical, and very
Latin telling of the Way of the Cross,
complete with huge stage sets, complex
lighting, a full orchestra and a cast of
hundreds acting out a modern version of the biblical story.
The procession is one of the mainstay events of World
Youth Day, designed to remind young Catholics about the
root of their faith that Christ died to forgive their sins.
Francis tried to drive that home in remarks to the crowd,
huddled in jackets on a chilly but nally rain-free night,
telling them Jesus bears all the suffering of the world: of the
families whose children fall prey to the false paradise of
drugs, of the hungry in a world where tons of food are
thrown out each day, of those who are persecuted for their
religion, their beliefs or simply for the color of their
skin.
Bombings at busy market in north Pakistan kill 39
PARACHINAR, Pakistan Apair of bombs tore through
crowds of shoppers at a busy market in northern Pakistan
on Friday, killing 39 people, ofcials said.
The bombings struck in the town of Parachinar, which
sits in the Kurram tribal area that borders Afghanistan to the
west. The market was full of people hurrying to buy items
for their evening meal that breaks the day-time fast during
the holy month of Ramadan.
Riaz Massoud, a top government ofcial in Kurram, said
the bombs killed 39 and wounded at least 70.
Dead bodies quickly overwhelmed Parachinars hospital,
as more than 100 people sought medical attention after the
blasts, said Dr. Zahid Hussain, who works at the hospital.
We have no place to keep the wounded, Hussain said.
Many of them are lying on the hospital oor and on the
lawn.
Liaquat Ali, another doctor in Parachinar, said some of the
wounded were in critical condition.

OPINION 9
Stand up for test takers
Editor,
I understand and respect the opin-
ions of Wednesdays editorial
(Students with invalidated AP exams
should retest from the July 24 edition
of the Daily Journal). However, Id
like to offer input from the point of
view of an affected student.
Unlike other standardized tests, AP
exams are far more detailed and com-
plex. In addition, because AP exams
are graded on a curve, the slightest
disadvantage can have substantial
repercussion on ones score. No uni-
versity will accept a score of one or
two. Many do not accept threes. These
students have already put in time and
effort toward achieving a score they
deserve. Ayear of work and prepara-
tion cannot be replicated in a few
weeks. The impact on scheduling has
already happened in most cases. For
many students, their college deadlines
have past and they have already been
placed into lower courses. Retaking
the exams wont get them into higher
classes as it will be too late.
While rising seniors have the luxu-
ry of time for scheduling and can
afford to wait to receive their scores,
they have other priorities to full l
over the summer, including college
applications and summer homework.
Of course a retake is impossible for
many students as they are traveling
abroad or have vacation plans during
the scheduled retakes.
College Board is keeping students
in a perilous situation. The corpora-
tion has used retake signups to invali-
date past lawsuits. By not signing up,
a student may risk losing the scores
he or she worked so hard to achieve in
school. Signing up for retakes vio-
lates the principle of innocent until
proven guilty. Students should not
accept any punishment until such
actions are warranted. Its time to
stand up for test takers rights and not
let College Board continue to push
students around at their own whim.

Letter to the editor
By Kent Lauder
W
hat is the purpose of
anonymity when express-
ing opinion? Primarily it
is for protection; certainly in an
oppressive society it can be a neces-
sity. In an open one, it is more likely
a timid way of lashing out at people
or groups while avoiding the heat of
responsibility. Letter writers to local
papers are required to identify them-
selves, not so in blogs or other social
media.
Weve all seen those offensive,
anonymous posts on the Internet,
often bullying attacks of harsh lan-
guage and tough guy posturing. What
we are witnessing is a level of incivil-
ity unmatched to our heretofore con-
ventional methods of social dis-
course.
In societies where people live in
close proximity, the following of
social norms and constraints is
imperative. Under the protection of
anonymity, those constraints can all
but disappear. This leads to all sorts
of far-reaching consequences; one
being an enhanced level of fanati-
cism. But anonymity is only one
issue, albeit a conspicuous one, of the
growing detachment between individ-
uals.
By its very nature, the social medi-
um acts as a catalyst for isolation;
isolation breeds prejudice, contempt
and the typecasting of others into
simplistic black and white delin-
eations. Going further, it creates an
atmosphere for fundamental and abso-
lutist thought whose doctrines do not
allow for anything outside its own
jurisdiction; thus followers of dogma
are rigidly intolerant and unforgiv-
i ng.
The taking of sides and the result-
ing conicts that exclusivity creates
is innate to modern humans. We see it
manifested every-
where: from reli-
gious divisiveness
to nationalistic fer-
vor, from racial and
cultural divides to
any of a thousand
hairsplitting vari-
ances that people
fabricate for them-
selves.
Many had hoped that the great leap
in technological communication
would change all that; that new and
legitimate dialogue and the airing of
differing opinions would bring in a
new era of openness. But as is always
the case with starry-eyed predictions,
this new medium is proving to be
more antisocial than social.
Steinbeck once wrote that we do not
seek advice, only corroboration, for
the isolated individual is not an open
individual looking for new ideas;
merely a safe forum from where he can
air his own self-importance. He is a
fearful individual and, because his
beliefs are always in the minority, he
feels constantly persecuted that
can make him dangerous.
While that is an extreme example of
where this impersonal medium can
lead, it has a toxic effect on everyone.
The value of personal contact
should not be underestimated. What is
lost in this new medium is all the
body language, subtle facial expres-
sions, eye contact, and so on, that
personal interaction conveys. Even
simple phone dialogue, which adds
vital voice nuances so critical to har-
mony, has been replaced by bowed
head supplications to the texting
gods. Contrast this when one is deal-
ing directly one on one in which com-
monalties come to the fore, bonds
strengthen and restraints come into
play; all helping to lessen potential
discord.
The increase in cyber bullying
among teens is an example of the
destructive power of the electronic
medium. For the oftentimes fragile
psyches of adolescents, assaults on
them can be devastating. Recently,
experts have blamed this new medium
for the dramatic rise in suicides,
[Audrie Pott], using the term disso-
ciative anonymity to describe the
uninhibitedness of malicious cyber
attacks.
This is a great cultural evolution we
are experiencing. Natural evolution
the slow interplay of change and
adaptation takes millennia to
unfold. The accelerated pace of this
new technological innovation, how-
ever, has not allowed us the time to
adapt. It is a permutation without
precedent, and thus we have no guar-
antee of a successful outcome.
Despite all this, young people may
be able to adjust. Certainly they are
better equipped to change than those
of us of the elderly persuasion who are
set in our stubborn and prejudicial
ways; for wisdom is not a top-down
proposition, but arises from the
ground up. While we may have
insight from experience, they are not
burdened by the entanglements of
experience, and possess a more open
sense of fairness.
Hopefully, they will adapt to the
dangers of this social disconnect and
strive to rebalance the system. If not,
the consequences may be beyond res-
olution.

Washingtons poor
record on spending
O
n July 24, President Obama took to the podium at
Knox College in Galesburg, Ill., to deliver what
his team billed as a major speech to discuss his
vision for kick-starting the economy.
And the nation yawned, because the speech was just more
of the same tired, reheated proposals the president has
been pitching for years to little effect.
But one thing missing from Obamas speech was a dis-
cussion of the national debt. In fact, the word debt occurs
only twice in the published text, and only in reference to
household and student loan debt.
Meanwhile, our $17 trillion national debt, a product of
Washington overspending, is a long-term drag on the
economy and its clear this
president has no idea what to do
about it. Were paying the price
for Washingtons proigacy
and its only going to get worse.
Consider the words of Admiral
Mike Mullen, a retired Navy of-
cer and former chairman of the
Joint Chiefs of Staff, who has
warned repeatedly over the last
several years that the most sig-
nicant threat to our national
security is our debt.
Few would disagree with that
assessment. Yet you wouldnt
know that from reading the presidents speeches or watch-
ing our leaders in Congress, who continue to spend with
reckless abandon.
So far, the most signicant place theyve found to cut
spending is the defense budget, which runs the risk of
leaving our military unprepared to face future threats.
Of course, with the end of combat operations in Iraq and
Afghanistan, its natural and inevitable we would see some
reduction in defense spending. In fact, defense spending
had already begun to decline from the post-9/11 buildup,
even before the sequester began to take effect in March. No
rational person will argue we should never make serious
cuts to our defense spending.
But spending on defense should be determined by strate-
gic and security needs. Sequestration does not reect those
needs. Instead of Congress and the president getting seri-
ous about budget cuts, they are engaging in a game of
chicken to see which party will give in rst.
This is not the careful, considered approach to scal man-
agement the United States needs. But given the lack of lead-
ership in Washington, its the scal management were get-
ting.
If the federal government were serious about this prob-
lem, it would make a broad assessment of federal spending
to determine with care where spending reform is needed,
instead of relying on mindless automatic budget cuts under
sequestration.
An obvious area for reform is entitlement spending in
Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, which combined
are the biggest contributor to our decit and debt. These
programs are on a course to bankruptcy, and without
reform they wont be there for future generations.
Controlling spending in these programs today would pay
dividends tomorrow, while allowing us to maintain a rea-
sonably strong military force.
There was a time when President Obama understood these
facts. Shortly before he took ofce in 2009, Obama
pledged to tackle entitlement reform, because he recog-
nized we were on an unsustainable spending course. What
we have done is kicked this can down the road, Obama
said then. We are now at the end of the road and are not in
a position to kick it any further.
The president doesnt talk that way anymore; his recent
economic speeches make no mention of xing Social
Security or Medicare. Instead, hes joined Congress in con-
tinuing to kick the can by increasing the debt ceiling
and piling on more debt, while allowing entitlement
spending to continue mushrooming.
More spending and debt is not a solution to our scal
woes but, with another debt ceiling deadline looming this
fall, its a safe bet that Washington will continue to pile
on to our mountain of liabilities.
We must demand more from our leaders. Their dereliction
on the budget has major implications for the United States
when it comes to defending our national security and pro-
tecting freedom around the world.
Admiral Mullen had it right. Spending and debt are going
to leave our nation weaker in both economic and military
terms. We dont need another rehashed green jobs speech
from President Obama. We need him to get serious about
spending reform now because further delay will only
make the problems more difcult to address later.

Big movers
By Matthew Craft
NEW YORK A mixed batch of
earnings results gave investors little
direction on Friday as traders began
looking ahead to a packed schedule
next week.
The stock market slumped in early
trading, climbed steadily the rest of
the day, then ended little changed.
Volume was thin as traders prepared
for a deluge of potentially market-
moving events next week: a Federal
Reserve meeting, the governments
monthly employment report and
much more.
Traders seem to be erring on the
side of caution today, said Jeffrey
Kleintop, the chief market strategist
for LPL Financial.
Expedia plunged 27 percent, the
worst fall in the Standard & Poors
500 index. The online travel agency
reported earnings late Thursday that
badly missed analysts expectations.
Higher costs were the main culprit.
Expedia lost $17.80 to $47.20.
The Standard & Poors 500 index
inched up 1.40 points, or 0.08 per-
cent, to 1,691.65. The index ended
the week with a tiny loss, the first
this month.
The Dow Jones industrial average
rose 3.22 points, less than 0.1 per-
cent, to 15,558.83. The Nasdaq com-
posite index edged up 7.98 points, or
0.2 percent, to 3,613.16.
Its halftime in the second-quarter
earnings season, and corporate prof-
its are shaping up better than some
had feared.
Analysts forecast that earnings for
companies in the S&P 500 increased
4.5 percent over the same period in
2012, according to S&P Capital IQ.
At the start of July, they predicted
earnings would rise 2.8 percent.
Nearly seven out of every 10 compa-
nies have surpassed Wall Streets
profit targets.
The results arent exactly impres-
sive, said Sam Stovall, the chief equi-
ty strategist at S&P Capital IQ.
Investors often argue that analysts
set the bar for earnings so low that
most companies are bound to jump
over it. On average, more than six of
every 10 companies beat Wal l
Streets targets every quarter.
Starbucks posted results late
Thursday that beat analysts est i-
mates. Lower costs for coffee beans
and better sales of salads and sand-
wiches helped. Starbucks jumped
$5.19, or 8 percent, to $73.36.
The stock market hasnt ended the
week with a loss since June 21, when
speculation that the Federal Reserve
would start easing off its support for
the economy rattled financial mar-
kets.
Kleintop cautioned against reading
too much into the markets moves on
Friday or the weekly loss. The S&P
500 is still up 5.3 percent for the
month and 18.6 percent for the year.
Its just one week down after four
up, he said. If the market just goes
higher and higher week after week,
you would see a major swoon when it
runs into some disappointing news.
In the market for U.S. government
bonds, the yield on the benchmark
10-year Treasury note slipped to 2.56
percent from 2.57 percent late
Thursday.
Long-term interest rates have
swung in a wide range since early
May as traders attempt to anticipate
the Feds next move. The yield on the
10-year note went as low as 1.63 per-
cent on May 1 and as high as 2.74
percent on July 5.
Stocks eke out tiny gains on Wall Street
Its just one week down after four up. ... If the market just
goes higher and higher week after week, you would see a
major swoon when it runs into some disappointing news.

FRANKFURT, Germany After a year and
a half of recession, Europes battered econo-
my could nally be showing signs of life.
Its not the kind of recovery that calls for
a big celebration. Any upswing will be a
slow and arduous climb up a slope strewn
with high unemployment and scarce credit
for businesses.
But signs of improvement are there. On
Thursday, a German index of business con-
dence rose for the third month in a row.
Meanwhile, surveys of purchasing man-
agers in the euro area indicate manufacturing
activity edged back into growth territory in
July for the rst time in 18 months.
And there are other indications that
Europe has bottomed out.
Germanys central bank, the Bundesbank,
says the countrys economy Europes
biggest expanded strongly in the
April-June period. Automaker Daimler AG
says it expects to see the continents sag-
ging car market start to recover toward the
end of the year. In the No. 2 euro economy,
Frances Insee index of consumer condence
ticked up in July to 82 from 79 the month
before.
News like this has raised hopes that eco-
nomic growth gures could be at or slight-
ly positive when they come out for the
April-June period on Aug. 14.
Hedge fund pleads
not guilty to U.S. fraud charges
NEWYORK Anot guilty plea has been
entered on behalf of a large hedge fund
charged in a criminal indictment with let-
ting insider trading occur over a 10-year
period.
The plea was entered Friday morning in
Manhattan federal court by Peter Nussbaum,
longtime general counsel for SAC Capital
Advisors. It happened a day after the compa-
ny was charged with wire and securities
fraud.
A prosecutor says the evidence is volu-
minous.
Stamford, Conn.-based SAC said in a
statement after the charges were announced
that it will continue normal operations.
It said it has never encouraged, promoted
or tolerated insider trading and takes its
compliance and management obligations
seriously.

COLON KEEPS WINNING: THE OAKLAND PITCHER PICKED UP HIS 14TH WIN OF THE SEASON >> PAGE 13
Staring at elimination, the Belmont-
Redwood Shores 11-12 Little League All-
Star squad showed why it has been one of the
best in Northern California this season as it
advanced to the Division 2 championship
series with a 12-1 win over West
Sacramento in the consolation bracket nal
Friday night in Roseville.
BRS will face Santa Cruz in Game 1 of the
championship series at 11 a.m. Saturday. If
BRS wins, there will be a winner-take-all
nale at 11 a.m. Sunday. Santa Cruz is the
only team to have beaten Belmont-
Redwood Shores during the all-star season,
handing it a 2-0 loss in the winners brack-
et nal Wednesday.
Two wins over Santa Cruz would send BRS
to San Bernardino for the West Regional,
the winner of which advances to the Little
League World Series in Williamsport, Pa.
The first three innings against West
Sacramento Friday night was a tight affair,
with the team knotted at 1 after three. In the
top of the fourth inning, however, BRS
took control with seven runs. Noah
Marcelo hit a three-run homer to put BRS up
6-1 and Nick Lopez, who was celebrating
his birthday, followed with a solo shot.
Sean Lees RBI double gave BRS an 8-1
lead.
For icing on his birthday cake, Lopez
went deep again in the fth, this one a three-
run blast. Joining the home run party was
Brad Shimabuku, who followed Lopezs jack
with one of his own.
In the bottom of the fifth, West
Sacramento loaded the bases, but
Shimabuku shut it down. Shimabuku
pitched all five innings for Belmont-
Redwood Shores. He allowed just one run on
three hits and struck out six.

its season end Thursday with an 11-7 loss to

Redwood Citys Juan Hernandez went into
Friday nights ght against Payton Boyea
of Sacramento knowing it was a make-or-
break situation for his career.
He knew it, his trainer knew, his long-
time fans knew it. After battling through a
pair of hand and elbow injuries over the past
couple of years injuries that set back his
career after a promising ascent up the ama-
teur ranks Hernandez (3-1, 3 KOs) had a
lot more riding on his Friday Night at the
Fox bout than just another W.
And so, as the rst round counted down,
Hernandez went for broke and threw a punch
with the aforementioned left hand.
I threw it because it was the hand that I
had injured, Hernandez said. And once it
landed and it didnt hurt me, I gained con-
dence.
The left hook landed ushed and was the
catalyst to a rst round technical knock out
in Hernandezs return to the ring at the cruis-
erweight level. The stoppage came with
nine second left in the first round after
Hernandez landed a left-right combination
and rattled Boyea, sending him to the can-
vas for the second time.
Six seconds into the referees count, and
ght ofcials stepped in to put an end to the
bout.
Truthfully, Im just very pleased and
happy, especially after these injuries,
Hernandez said. Im back and thank God I
feel strong and now were moving on to
another weight class. Im just happy and
pleased in returning to the sport that I love.
Im just thankful to all my supporters from

On front of the batting cage at Serra are
the names of 58 former Padre baseball play-
ers who have gone on to sign professional
contracts with Major League Baseball
teams.
The likes of Barry Bonds, Gregg Jeffries
and Tony Renda are just a few of the names
that represent one of the best high school
baseball programs in the nation in the pro-
fessional ranks. Soon, the name of current
Serra star Sean Watkins could land on the
hallowed batting cage.
My goal at Serra is to someday bring my
kids over to school and show them my pic-
ture up on the wall for the Serra Hall of
Fame, Watkins said.
On the heels of a performance in which he
pitched a six-inning no-hitter with 14
strikeouts for the San Mateo Shockers,
Watkins has been the center of attention for
baseball on the Peninsula. His incredible
performance last Saturday resulted in him
receiving his sixth Division I baseball
scholarship offer this time from the
University of California-Berkeley, who
were on hand to witness Watkins absolutely
dominate the Redwood City Blues in the
championship game of the American
Legion Area 2 tournament.
Arriving at this sudden position of
intense admiration by college scouts hasnt
been easy. When Watkins isnt throwing a
baseball around, he spends his time in the
gym getting stronger, bigger and pushing
himself to be the best that he can be.
Im like a gym rat in the gym and Im
always getting myself stronger or faster

CULVER CITY Even with new coach
Mark Helfrich taking over for Chip Kelly
at Oregon, the expectations around the
high-flying Ducks havent changed a bit.
The media is picking Oregon to win the
Pac-12 football title, edging Stanford and
UCLA in the preseason media poll
announced Friday at the conferences
media day.
Oregon received 14 of the 25 first-place
votes for the Pac-12 North division in the
poll, earning 139 points. The defending
Rose Bowl champion Cardinal received
11 first-place votes and 134 points.
Oregons selection highlighted a busy
day for the conference, which also
announced new practice policies limiting
its teams to two full-contact workouts per
week during the regular season and spring
bal l .
The Pac-12s coaches helped to write the
new practice rules, which are designed to
keep players healthier and away from seri-
ous head injuries. Arizona coach Rich
Rodriguez said almost every coach in the
country already believes in the principles
set out in the Pac-12s new policy.
Oregon isnt expected to slip without
Kelly, whose departure for the Philadelphia
Eagles led to the promotion of Helfrich,
Kellys offensive coordinator. The new
coach is keeping much of the Ducks hall-
mark offense and innovative mentality,
since Helfrich believes theres little reason
to tinker with the formula perfected during
Kellys four wildly successful seasons.
If the guy that followed John Wooden
quoted him every once in a while, would that
have been a bad thing? Helfrich asked.

SANTA CLARA With so much talent returning on
defense, several San Francisco 49ers players have taken
advantage of an intriguing new resource in training camp.
That being Anquan Boldin.
The versatile wide receiver said Friday that curiosity has
simmered from his defensive teammates about how oppo-
nents scheme against the unit since he joined the 49ers
this offseason. And nobody in practice might know better
than Boldin, who caught six passes for 104 yards and a
touchdown to help the Baltimore
Ravens beat San Francisco 34-31 in the
Super Bowl.
A lot of guys came up to me and
asked me, What did the scouting report
have on it? What did it say? Boldin
said. Things like that. Ive had a
chance to communicate that to guys.
While hes not going to make those
schemes public knowledge, Boldin has
passed along that information to team-
mates while doing his own job catching passes from
Colin Kaepernick. Picking Boldins brain for ideas is just
one of many ways the 49ers defense among the NFLs
best the past two seasons is trying to improve from
within.
After all, San Francisco has almost everybody back on
defense again. That continuity helps build upon past suc-
cess, but it also allows little opportunities to improve
other than from within.
When youve done it so many times and youre OK at a
lot of positions, we try to nd little nitpicky things to get
better on, cornerback Carlos Rogers said.
The departures of All-Pro safety Dashon Goldson and
nose tackle Isaac Sopoaga left the most glaring vacancies
to ll among the starting unit. At the other nine posi-
tions, San Francisco still seems stacked.
The 49ers ranked third in total defense (294.4 yards),
fourth in yards rushing allowed (94.2) and fourth in yards
passing allowed per game (200.2) last season. The unit
still had aws, though, most notably going from No. 1 in
takeaways (38) two years ago to No. 6 (25) in the league
last season.
Defensive coordinator Vic Fangio spent time with play-
ers this summer reviewing what went wrong, particularly
late in the year and in the playoffs, when the 49ers fell
behind far too often and failed to create turnovers at the
same rate. He also outlined what they could improve upon
this season, pushing players who are highly decorated by
pointing out the one accolade theyre still missing: a
Super Bowl title.
We have guys who are willing to learn and willing to
hear any type of critique from your peers, and I think that
makes us a better team, All-Pro linebacker NaVorro
Bowman said. We have an ultimate goal to reach, and
thats the greatest thing about it. Were all working so
hard to reach that ultimate goal.
Among Fangios points of emphasis was for players to
practice the same technique and team principles in big
moments especially against elite talent such as Green
Bay, Atlanta and Baltimore that all had success against
them in the playoffs that carried the defense to consec-
utive NFC championship games and the Super Bowl last
season.
The other is to build some much-needed depth behind the
starters, who play as many minutes as any in the NFL.
That lack of depth was particularly evident when lineman
Justin Smith missed the nal 2 1/2 games of the regular
season with a partially torn left triceps and was somewhat
limited during the playoffs.
Its an area of concern, Fangio said.
The loudest sounding board for the defense besides
Fangio has been Boldin. The savvy wide receiver, who has
described himself as quiet and reserved most of the time in
his new surroundings, has been more than willing to help.
One of the tidbits Boldin revealed publicly about schem-
ing against the 49ers is that the Ravens were particularly
concerned about how much talent San Francisco had
throughout its defense that there wasnt just one or two
players to scheme against. Baltimore spread the 49ers out,
particularly in the rst half, allowing Boldin to run
through pockets over the middle and force Bowman and
fellow All-Pro linebacker Patrick Willis to chase faster
receivers and tight ends.
The benets have gone both ways.
Boldin said hes also taking advantage of going against
such a strong 49ers defense every day. He called the chal-
lenge the same as facing Baltimores vaunted unit the
past three years in practice.
You want a challenge every day, Boldin said. You
want guys that are going to make you work because in the
end that makes you better as an offense. Offensively, here,
we dont have any days off going against this defense.
They have a lot of studs on the other side of the ball, and I
think thats a plus for us.

NAPA D.J. Hayden was back out on the practice eld
taking part in individual drills and even covering receivers
in a few 11-on-11 sessions.
The main thing setting the Oakland Raiders rookie cor-
nerback apart from the rest of his teammates when training
camp opened was the color of his jersey.
Instead of wearing the usual black jersey for the defense,
Hayden was in a red one designated usually for quarterbacks
and kickers who are not supposed to be hit as he works his
way back from a near-fatal injury that cut his college career
short and offseason surgery that kept him out of most mini-
camps and organized team activities.
Im just happy to be out there, Hayden said. If I got to
have a red jersey on, thats what it is. Im cool with it.
Happy.
Hayden has plenty of reason to be happy after all that he
has gone through since being taken to the hospital last
November after colliding with a teammate during practice
while playing in college at Houston.
Hayden was rushed into surgery for a tear of the inferior
vena cava, the large vein that carries blood from the lower
half of the body to the heart. Doctors had to cut through
Haydens sternum to save him. The injury is 95 percent fatal
in the eld, according to doctors, and is most commonly
associated with high-speed motor vehicle accidents.
Hayden worked his way back to health
and was cleared by doctors before the
draft. The Raiders selected him 12th
overall and expressed condence that the
injury would not limit his NFL career.
Hayden took part in rookie minicamp
in May before needing surgery in the rst
week of OTAs to repair abdominal scar-
ring. Hayden missed the rest of the off-
season program, raising questions about
whether the Raiders took an unwise gam-
ble when they drafted Hayden.
I try not to even worry about it, Hayden said. People
are going to say stuff. I just focus on whatever my coverage
is. I focus on the man Im guarding. All the other outside
stuff, I have no control over it. I can control what I do on the
eld so thats what Im focused on.
Hayden is not missing much contact yet as the team is
unable to wear pads until the third day of practice on Sunday.
Hayden said it will be a relief when he can start hitting so he
can get past that hurdle.
But the Raiders want to be somewhat cautious with their
rst-round pick, considering he has not played football
since the rst week of November.
Hes really not limited from a physical standpoint,
coach Dennis Allen said. But, again, when a guy hasnt
played football in that long and now all of a sudden youre
asking him to start and stop and do all those kinds of
things, hes got to get into football shape and football con-
dition physically and mentally. When you draft a guy like
that, that has the talent that he has and we expect him to be
able to help our football team, we want to make sure were
smart and do the right things in bringing him along, let
him get acclimated.
Hayden is the rst rst-round pick made by the new
regime led by general manager Reggie McKenzie and he is
being counted on to be a major part of the rebuilding effort
for a franchise that has gone 10 straight seasons without a
winning record or playoff berth.
Hayden played 22 games at Houston, intercepting six
passes that he returned for three touchdowns. He also recov-
ered three fumbles and forced six before his senior season
was cut short by the injury.
NOTES: The Raiders had three players who have not been
cleared to practice. LB Miles Burris has not recovered from
offseason knee surgery and defensive tackle Pat Sims and
offensive lineman Menelik Watson had undisclosed injuries
preparing for training camp. ... DB Charles Woodson was
back to his familiar No. 24 jersey that he wore in his rst
stint with Oakland after wearing no number and 2 during off-
season workouts. Tracy Porter switched to No. 31. I got the
jersey back in large part because of the fans. Big thank you
to the fans for that, Woodson said. ... Allen said he plans
to have a fairly even division of snaps at quarterback
between Matt Flynn, Terrelle Pryor and Tyler Wilson at the
start of camp before honing in on a starter as it gets closer
to the season.

Tebows future could depend on versatility
FOXBOROUGH, Mass Tim Tebow had a rough day
throwing the ball in his rst training camp practice. But
he caught a short toss during a screen-passing drill.
His future with the New England Patriots, if he has one,
may depend on that kind of versatility rather than his ques-
tionable quarterbacking skills.
And the arrest of tight end Aaron Hernandez, of course,
his former teammate at Florida, could help his chances.
Coach Bill Belichick wouldnt commit Friday to using
Tebow only at quarterback, where his throwing mechanics
were faulty while with the Denver Broncos and New York
Jets.
I think that well use Tim wherever we feel like hes best
for the team, said Belichick. And I know thats what hes
committed to doing as well, whatever that is.
The 6-foot-3, 245-pound Tebow has the size to play
tight end and H-back but said hes only been in the quar-
terback room during positional meetings with the
Patriots.
But he departed from his insistence that he wanted to
play only that position.
Im going to do what coach asks me to do, he said.

NEWYORK Alfonso Soriano took one
look around Yankee Stadium and broke into
a big, familiar smile.
This is my house, this is my home, he
said. Im happy I have the opportunity to
come back to New York 10 years.
The New York Yankees reacquired Soriano
in a trade with the Chicago Cubs on Friday,
hoping the seven-time
All-Star can provide a
power boost to a team
that desperately needs
pop.
Soriano immediately
went into the starting
lineup, batting cleanup
and playing left field
against Tampa Bay. The
Cubs got minor league
pitcher Corey Black and
will send almost $17.7
million to the Yankees to cover the rest of
Sorianos rich contract.
Weve obviously been trying to improve
our offense, to no avail, throughout this
season, Yankees general manager Brian
Cashman said. By far, he is the best avail-
able bat to date.
Soriano outhomered the Yankees all by
himself (10-8) in the four weeks prior to the
deal. Overall, the 37-year-old was hitting
.254 with 17 homers and 51 RBIs with the
Cubs.
The Bronx Bombers led the majors with
245 home runs last year, but have become
the Bronx burn-outs this season, ranking
next-to-last in the AL with only 88. Banged
up, theyve played most of the year without
Curtis Granderson, Mark Teixeira, Derek
Jeter and Alex Rodriguez.
Their slump from the right side
Soriano hits righty is even more acute.
Its been a month since a right-hander
homered for the Yankees, with Jayson Nix
the last to do it on June 25.

SAN FRANCISCO Julio Borbon and
Junior Lake scored on an error by San Francisco
rst baseman Brandon Belt in the ninth inning
and the Chicago Cubs rallied for a 3-2 win over
the Giants on Friday night.
Borbon singled leading off the inning
against Giants closer Sergio Romo (3-5) and
moved to second when pinch-hitter Dioner
Navarro walked.
After David DeJesus struck out looking, Lake
reached on a elders choice. Anthony Rizzo
then hit a sharp liner that went through Belts
legs and into the right eld corner.
The Cubs, who earlier in the day completed a
trade sending slugging outelder Alfonso
Soriano to the New York Yankees, rallied for just
the fourth time when trailing after eight
innings.
Jeff Francoeur had two hits for the Giants,
who lost for the fth time in six games.
Matt Guerrier (4-4) retired four batters for the
win while Kevin Gregg worked the ninth for his
20th save.
Chicagos 14th come-from-behind win came
after Francoeurs two-run single off starter
Edwin Jackson in the seventh gave the Giants a
2-1 lead.
The wild ending was in stark contrast to the
pitching duel between Jackson and San
Francisco starter Matt Cain.
Jackson faced just one batter over the mini-
mum through four innings and carried a two-hit
shutout into the seventh until giving up two
walks and a double before Francoeurs two-run
single.
Cain allowed six hits, struck out seven and
walked one and was in line to win consecutive
starts for the rst time since early May until
Romos fourth blown save following the
Giants NL-leading 74th error.
The Cubs won only hours after the club com-
pleted the Soriano deal with the Yankees. Earlier
this month, the team also traded pitcher Matt
Garza to Texas and pitcher Scott Feldman to
Baltimore.
Cubs manager Dale Sveum said he isnt sure if
the team is done making moves, but doesnt
want it to become a distraction.
Im not exhaling yet, Sveum said before the
game. I dont really see anything else happen-
ing but until that 11th hour is here, I dont think
you can relax. We dont dwell on it anyway.
Nate Schierholtz, batting in the cleanup spot
with Soriano gone, doubled and scored
Chicagos rst run to continue a strong stretch
for the Cubs slugging right elder. He went 1 for
3 and is batting .428 (9 for 21) on the road trip.
Pablo Sandoval and Hunter Pence both dou-
bled and scored for San Francisco, which
dropped a season-high 10 games below .500
with the loss.
Sandoval walked with one out in the seventh
and took third on Pences double. After Belt was
intentionally walked to load the bases,
Francoeur blooped a two-run single that landed
in between second baseman Darwin Barney and
right elder Schierholtz to give the Giants a 2-1
lead. Belt was tagged out trying to score.

OAKLAND Bartolo Colon won his 14th
game for a share of the major league lead,
backed by Jed Lowries homer and two-run sin-
gle and a two-run drive by Stephen Vogt in the
Oakland Athletics6-4 victory against the Los
Angeles Angels on Friday night.
Colon, the 40-year-old All-Star, won his
third straight decision while facing his former
club. The right-hander earned the 2005 ALCy
Young Award with a 21-8 year for the Angels.
Mike Trout hit a two-run homer in the rst
on a ball he crushed into the elevated seats in
left-center, then Colon settled in nicely
against Los Angeles loaded lineup.
Colon (14-3) allowed two runs and seven
hits in six innings, struck out two and walked
two. He has won 11 of 12 decisions since los-
ing May 9 at Cleveland and has lost just once
since turning 40 on May 24.
After serving a 50-game suspension late
last year into this season for a positive testos-
terone test, Colon is among more than a
dozen players being investigated by Major
League Baseball for ties to a Florida clinic
accused of distributing performance-enhanc-
ing drugs.
On Friday, he helped the AL West-leading
As bounce back from an 8-3 defeat in
Thursday nights series opener.
Lowrie homered in the bottom of the rst to
get the As to 2-1, then singled home two runs
to put his team ahead in the second two batters
after Eric Sogards tying single. Vogt connect-
ed in the sixth.
Jerry Blevins walked the rst two Angels of
the ninth. Grant Balfour relieved and allowed
Albert Pujols two-run single. He struck out
Josh Hamilton to end it for his 27th save after
blowing his rst opportunity since April 29,
2012, Tuesday night at Houston snapping
his franchise-best streak of 44 saves in a row.
Jerome Williams (5-7) lost his second
straight start to the As while facing them for
the fth time this year.
He yielded four runs and six hits in ve
innings. The As pushed his pitch count up in
a hurry, and he threw 103 in all over ve
innings his fth straight outing of ve or
fewer innings.
Williams lost his fth straight decision and
has a seven-start winless stretch since beating
the Orioles in Baltimore on June 12.
Williams, who pitched for Oaklands Triple-A
Sacramento club in 2009, received a mound
visit after Coco Crisp followed Sogards tying
single in the second with a base hit.
Crisp started a nice double play in the third
when he caught Pujolsy and threw to second
baseman Sogard to get Trout after he reached
on an ineld single.
Angels C.J. Wilson, Jason Vargas and
Hamilton took Bay Area Rapid Transit to the
Oakland Coliseum after authorities temporari-
ly shut down the San Francisco-Oakland Bay
Bridge when a suspicious device was found,
snarling trafc on both sides of the crossing
on a busy Friday afternoon.

Do the assessor records always match what exists on the property site?
The answer is that sometimes the records can deviate from what exists
on a parcel. This could include the bedroom, bath and room count, the
amenities and square footage of the home and land.
When a property is
improved, the city or town
building department will
share the information with
the county. But sometimes
the information is not
communicated properly or
input correctly.
The best advice is to check
what the city or town has in
their records and then
compare it to the county
records. It is possible to have
the county update their
records. Just contact the
assessor in your county for
more information.

Los Gatos in the consolation
bracket of the Little League
Division 2 tournament in San
Jose.
It was an especially bitter pill to
swallow considering the Dawgs
held a 6-2 lead. But Los Gatos
scored nine runs in the top of the
fth inning.
We kind of blew up, said SMN
head coach Dave Villar. We were
up 6-2 and just could not get an out
(in the top of the fth).
After winning the District 52
championship and the Section 3
title, San Mateo National was
shooting for a 9-10 state crown.
There is no world series for the 9-
10 division and because California
is so large, there are two state
champions a Northern
California champion and a
Southern California champion.
San Mateo opened the Division
2 tournament with a 5-3 loss to
Mill Valley in the first round,
immediately dropping the Dawgs
into the consolation bracket.
They picked up their rst win of
the tournament, a 13-3 victory
over Riverpark American Monday,
before being eliminated by Los
Gatos Thursday.

Redwood City and across the Bay
Area.
Hernandez was part of a locally-
rich card at yet another sold out
Fox Night at the Fox Theatre.
Along with Hernandez, who boxes
out of the Redwood City Police
Activities League, Ricardo Pinell
of B Street Boxing in San Mateo,
and Bruno Escalante, of
Undisputed Boxing in San Carlos,
fought and won at the Fox.
Pinell outlasted and then
destroyed Stanley Harvey of
Norfolk, Va. with a devastating
left hand at the 1:26 mark of the
third round of their super welter-
weight bout.
Both ghters came in over the
allotted weight, but Pinell gave up
a signicant nine pounds. He used
that to his advantage by out-pac-
ing Harvey for two rounds and
then landing a hard left hook that
took down the Virginia native.
I knew he came in soft, Pinell
(5-0-1, 4 KOs) said. I knew I
wanted to establish that jab, thats
the key to everything. His body
was soft. That was going to set up
everything up top and thats what
we did.
Also victorious and arguably
the most impressive of the three
local victors was Escalante,
who is now 3-0 at the Fox.
The Aloha Kid scored a techni-
cal knockout after taking down
Mexicos Manuel Galaviz twice in
the rst round with big left hands.
Galaviz was not cleared by the
ringside doctor to come out for the
second.
Escalante showed tremendous
quickness and explosiveness.
After stalking and measuring
Galaviz for the bulk of the rst
round, he pounced and detonated a
straight left bomb on the
Mexican. From there, it was just a
continued onslaught on a fragile
ghter.
Escalante, ghting in the y-
weight division, is now 9-1-1
with ve knockouts.

the upcoming season.
Amidst all his sudden stardom,
Watkins remains focused on one
thing the team. Whether its on
the diamond for Serra or for the
Shockers, Watkins understands
the importance of being a team
player. Currently that team-rst,
winning mentality of Watkins
resides in the dugout of the
Shockers, a dugout thats feeling
extremely good about their play.
After a three game stretch in the
local regional playoffs in which
they dismantled their opposition,
outscoring them by a total of 47-
0, the Shockers and Watkins next
objective is to take home an
American Legion state champi-
onship.
The next step for the Shockers
is winning a state title, its that
simple, Watkins said.
While aspiring to win a champi-
onship is one thing, going out
and actually getting it done on the
eld is another. On that note, the
Shockers do have the capabilities
to go out and achieve their lofty
goal. With Watkins, an explosive
lineup and a consistent bullpen,
San Mateo will be a challenge for
any team that takes them on.
Whether its Derek Merryweather,
Nick Waldsmith or Jason Marley,
the entire Shockers lineup is
something opposing pitchers
dread to face.
The road to a state champi-
onship begins today at the
Veterans Home in Yountville
where leaving with anything short
of a state championship will be
considered unacceptable to such a
talented team.

Were going to talk the same, work the

that believe in what we do, and thats the
most important part.
Oregon won the Fiesta Bowl last season
in the Ducks fourth consecutive appearance
in a BCS bowl. The Ducks lost Kelly and
eight starters from last seasons team, but
theyve still got Marcus Mariota, the soph-
omore hailed by both Helfrich and Stanford
coach David Shaw on Friday as the best
quarterback in the nation.
Although the Pac-12 media poll has pre-
dicted the conference winner in 11 of the
past 13 seasons, Shaw isnt discounting his
Cardinals chances to break past Oregon
this fall, particularly with their Nov. 7
showdown being played at Stanford
Stadium. Stanford lost 10 starters from last
seasons team, which went 12-2 and beat
Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl, but the
Cardinal see no reason for their remarkable
football renaissance to end this fall.
This year we have gotten notoriety about
a national championship chase, Shaw
said. But I like to say three years ago we
were one game away, and (in 2011) two
games away, and this last year 10 points
away. This year we anticipate being in the
hunt, and for the foreseeable future. Thats
how we approach it, and to say that this year
is any different than any other, its just not
how we look at it.
Although UCLA faces a difcult schedule
under second-year coach Jim Mora, the two-
time division champion Bruins got 12 rst-
place votes and 130 points in the South
polling, edging Arizona States nine rst-
place votes and 124 points. Southern
California, last years preseason No. 1, got
four rst-place votes and 113 points in third
place.
We made some progress last year, but
were nowhere close to where we want to
be, said Mora, who cites a depleted defen-
sive secondary as the Bruins biggest area of
concern heading into practice next week.
Weve got a vision of where we want to
be.
Oregon State was third in the North bal-
loting, followed by Washington, California
and Washington State.
Arizona was picked fourth in the South,
followed by Utah and Colorado.

AMERICAN LEAGUE NATIONAL LEAGUE
By Tim Booth
SEATTLE Dana White can see
it coming, a day when the speed
and athleticism of the ghters in
the UFCs yweight division are
enough of a draw that the smaller
ghters can be the centerpiece of a
pay-per-view event.
For now, yweights like cham-
pion Demetrious Johnson will
have to settle for top billing on
network TV.
(Johnson) has been on a lot of
big cards and hes going to ght
on Fox again, White said. Were
in the building phase of that divi-
sion.
Johnson will make the second
defense of his yweight title on
Saturday night in front of a home-
town crowd when he faces John
Moraga as part of the UFC on Fox
card at KeyArena. Johnsons rst
title defense also came on Fox
when he dominated John Dodson
in a unanimous decision victory.
Now comes Moraga in a ght
that was delayed a few months after
Johnson needed shoulder surgery.
John Moraga possesses great
skills. He throws good, great com-
binations, but as far as me, when it
comes to my training and prepar-
ing for ghters, or ghts, we dont
bring anybody in to emulate my
opponent and we dont go out and
seek information on my oppo-
nent, Johnson said. We just
train hard. I believe in my training
partners and my coaching, and
thats what weve done and it has-
nt let us down yet.
The co-main event features ris-
ing welterweight stars Rory
MacDonald and Jake Ellenberger.
The rest of the main card to be
shown on Fox includes a fight
between welterweights Bobby
Voelker and Robbie Lawler, with
Voelker stepping in as a late
replacement, and a womens ght
between Liz Carmouche and
Jessica Andrade. Carmouche was a
headliner just a few months ago
when she lost by submission to
womens champ Ronda Rousey at
UFC 157.
Moraga is unbeaten in his last
seven ghts, including a submis-
sion victory over Chris Cariaso at
UFC 155 in December that set up
his shot at the title on Saturday.
That was just his second fight
under the UFC banner and Moraga
is well aware of Johnsons history
of taking ghts the distance and
using conditioning as much as
ghting techniques to his advan-
tage.
Probably the thing that Ive
been working on most is cardio,
making sure Im able to go hard for
all five rounds, Moraga said.
Thats what I think hes shown is
his best ghting ability or what-
ever, that he may tire people out.
So, thats not going to happen in
this ght.
While the title ght will get top
billing, the co-main event featur-
ing MacDonald will get just as
much attention. The last time
MacDonald walked into KeyArena
in December, he took apart former
UFC champion B.J. Penn with a
dominating unanimous decision
victory. Penn was so battered that
he had to be taken to a hospital
following the ght.
MacDonalds task now is trying
to slow Ellenberger, who comes
into the bout having won eight of
his last nine ghts. Ellenberger
needed just 13 strikes to stop Nate
Marquardt with a first-round
knockout at UFC 158 in March.
MacDonalds combination of
size, athleticism and martial arts
techniques have many in UFC
believing he can be the heir appar-
ent in the welterweight ranks to
his mentor and current champion
Georges St. Pierre.
Im just going to focus on this
ght for now. My whole career has
just kind of been going with the
ow, said MacDonald, who has
stated he has no desire to ght St.
Pierre. Everything changes after
each ght, so Ill see where I am
after this ght, and its just the
options from there. Nothings out
of the question.
To continue his ascent up the
welterweight rankings, hell need
to avoid Ellenbergers heavy sts
and knack for knocking out oppo-
nents.
Despite MacDonalds 14-1
record, Ellenberger has not been
impressed.
Im going out there to perform
and to win. Rory doesnt have a
choice where this fight goes,
Ellenberger said. This ght goes
where I want it to go, and Ive
shown that in past fights. Im
excited. He surely has potential,
but he has not faced anybody like
me, so Im stoked to get in there.
Johnson set to defend UFC yweight title

W
hat is the purpose of a student
newspaper? In asking this of all
applicants to the Aragon
Outlook, the responses are fairly pre-
dictable keeping the school community
informed, offering a
voice for the student
body, maintaining a
measure of accountabili-
t y.
Yes, yes and yes. I
couldnt agree more.
Still, these answers over-
look that student journal-
ism is an invaluable
learning opportunity as much as it may be
a professional obligation.
When I rst began writing for Student
News about a year ago, I asked Daily
Journal Editor in Chief Jon Mays about rel-
evant topics. I had ideas but was not entire-
ly sure what qualied as student news.
What are the expectations for this weekend
feature?
Tell us about what happens at school, he
said, and it soon became clear. In the past
year, I have discussed competition at the
expense of pedagogy, a remarkable friend
in the pursuit of service, anonymitys
effect on online behavior and a profession-
al athletes decision to afrm his identity.
From it all, I recognize that Student News
simply offers additional perspective,
expanding and diversifying the dialogue
already contained within the San Mateo
Daily Journal.
While we the authors of this column add

The incomparable wit of Oscar Wilde
takes center stage in Stanford Summer
Theaters production of his ever-popular
The Importance of Being Earnest. Wilde
delighted in skewering English society with
one bon mot after another.
Most ably directed by Lynne Soffer, a vet-
eran Bay Area actress who does double duty
as dialect coach, this polished gem features
Stanford theater students as four would-be
lovers and four more experienced actors as
their elders.
Taking place in 1895, the play features
Austin Caldwell as Algernon Moncrieff, a
dapper bachelor who lives in the London at
where the rst act is set.
His friend, Jack Worthing (David
Raymond), is in love with Algernons
cousin, Gwendolen Fairfax (Ruth Marks).
When in London, Jack calls himself
Earnest, but he goes by Jack at his manor
house in the country. Gwendolen wants to
marry him because shes always wanted to
be with an Earnest. Of course, there is no
Earnest.
Another obstacle is Gwendolens mother,
Lady Bracknell (the imperious, formidable
Courtney Walsh), who opposes the marriage
because Earnest (actually Jack) apparently
is an orphan.

PENINSULA MUSEUM OF ART INVITES THE
PUBLIC TO THE SATURDAY, JULY 27 OPENING
OF ITS SUMMER 2013 EXHIBITIONS: SCULP-
TURE BY HELEN MORRISON AND MEDITATIONS
WATERCOLORS BY SIM VAN DER RYN. For its
Summer 2013 exhibitions, the Peninsula Museum of Art
presents bodies of work in two different media: Sculpture
by Helen Morrison and Mediation Watercolors by Sim
Van der Ryn. The public is invited to the opening recep-
tion on Sat. July 27 from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.
Helen Morrison is a Bay Area sculptor who taught sculp-
ture on the Peninsula from the early '70s until May of
2012. Trained as a fine artist at the San Francisco and
Chicago Art Institutes, and at the Royal Canadian College
of Art in Toronto, Morrison produces work that ranges
from highly realistic to abstract. She considers her work
to be a protest against ugliness, confusion and imperma-
nence. Of note in this exhibit is Morrisons clay sculp-
ture Mexicana, recently donated to the Museums perma-
nent collection by collector Susan Blake. Also on display
are a selection of Morrisons signature works in hard-
woods and ceramics, in addition to three newer pieces she
calls her ceramic ships.
For Meditations, painter and architect Sim Van der Ryn
assembled a collection of watercolors he created at a con-
ference at the Rockefeller Foundation estate Bellagio on
the shores of Lake Como. The paintings are a study of the
Italian landscape affected by the almost daily bursts of
rain. Born in the Netherlands and a longtime resident of
California, Van der Ryn is one of the fathers of sustainable
architecture. He served as Californias first energy-con-
scious State Architect under Gov. Jerry Brown in the
1970s and is an internationally distinguished pioneer in
ecological design.
The Peninsula Museum of Art is located at 1777
California Drive, Burlingame. Sculpture by Helen
Morrison and Meditations Watercolors by Sim Van der
Ryn are on display Wednesday through Sunday 11 a.m. to
5 p.m. through Oct. 6. For more information regarding
exhibits, classes and events, visit www.peninsulamuse-
um.org or call 692-2101. Museum admission is free.
PENINSULA ART INSTITUTE PRESENTS CURI-
OUS MAPS OF IMPOSSIBLE PLACES BY NEIL
MURPHY. The Peninsula Art Institute showcases

tion for the exhibits at the Peninsula Museum of Art (in
the same building complex). Peninsula Art Institute, 1777

WEEKEND JOURNAL 20
from our rst and foremost expertise as
adolescents and high school students. I
hope the thoughts penned by Chloee
Weiner, Carly Bertolozzi, Rachel Feder and
me have allowed the readers of Student
News to consider the world in a slightly
different way. I hope reading our work has
effected some change in the audience, just
as the process of writing has enabled us to
grow and evolve. And most importantly, I
hope you keep alive this unique, precious
tradition that is Student News by continu-
ing to read and respond in turn. I cannot
wait to read next years student columnists
work and wish them all the best.
Looking forward, I nd it hard to believe
that the fall term starts in about a month.
Moving from California to Seoul to North
Carolina, the line between home and
away is not completely clear. At least not
just yet. In any case, I take many a colorful
lesson from the Daily Journal ofce and
know they will be well cherished at Duke
University, both in the lecture hall and
hopefully on the Chronicle staff.
In closing, I would like to extend the
warmest of thanks to editor Jon Mays and
the San Mateo Daily Journal team for a
tremendous two years: Working with you
all has been an extraordinary privilege. To
Outlook adviser Mr. Silton, thank you for
four solid years of journalism. To former
Daily Journal columnist and intern Philip
Dimaano, thank you for advising me in
high school and introducing me to this
very internship! To the faculty members at
Aragon and mentors in the community,
thank you for your guidance and many
hours of conversation. And to my parents
and friends, thank you for helping me
through 18 years of laughs and tears to
reach this moment.
Last but not least, thank you so very
much, reader, for taking time out of your
week to read these columns.

When Algernon hears about Cecily, he
goes to Jacks home pretending to be
Earnest. Its love at rst sight between him

out to everyones satisfaction.
Besides Lady Bracknell, the older genera-

Algernons manservant, and Merriman,
Jacks butler, with unflappable dignity
despite all the goings-on.
Besides the actors skill, this production
is notable for outstanding production val-
ues, starting with Erik Flatmos set design,
which is especially stunning for Algernons
flat with its elaborate Chinese motifs.

Gabriela Cowperthwaite to explore what
happened. SeaWorld rst claimed that the
trainer had slipped and fallen; later, it said
Tilikum had been spooked by Brancheaus
ponytail.
Tilikum did not attack Dawn, SeaWorld
said in a written response to the lm. All
evidence indicates that Tilikum became
interested in the novelty of Dawns pony-
tail in his environment and, as a result, he
grabbed it and pulled her into the water.
The director, who has made documentaries
for ESPN, National Geographic, Animal
Planet, and the Discovery and History chan-
nels, said it took two years to make the lm.
She procured footage from local and nation-
al newscasts, peoples personal archives,
and through the Freedom of Information
Act.
It was just perseverance when it came to
getting footage, she said in an interview.
I couldnt believe what I was seeing. Once
you see that, you cant unsee it. In my mind.
that gave me my directive. Now that I know
the truth, I have to tell the truth. I didnt
imagine that I was going to be making this
lm. I thought I was gonna be making a
completely different film about relation-
ships with our animal counterparts. So it
was really learning through interviews and
stuff and seeing footage.
Key footage became public after the
Occupational Safety and Health
Administration took SeaWorld to court and
the images became exhibits in the case, she
said.
She recruited animal-behavior experts,
marine park patrons who witnessed whale
attacks during performances and former
SeaWorld trainers willing to go on the
record.
Personally, I started learning stuff about
the animals I didnt know, and I was work-
ing there, said former SeaWorld orca train-
er Samantha Berg.
Tilikum, born in the wild near Iceland in
1983, was captured and sent to a marine
park near Vancouver before he was sold to
SeaWorld in Orlando. The lm shows divers
trapping and kidnapping baby whales for
shipment to theme parks while their moth-
ers watched and screeched in agony.
In its statement about the lm, SeaWorld
said it hasnt captured killer whales from the
wild in more than 35 years and that 80 per-
cent of its animals were born there or in
other zoological facilities.
The director says she sought comment
from SeaWorld, which owns parks in
Orlando, San Diego, and San Antonio. But
the company declined to appear in
Blacksh, opting instead to issue its July
12 statement, which characterized the lm
as shamefully dishonest, deliberately mis-
leading, and scientically inaccurate.
Another former SeaWorld orca trainer,
Carol Ray, said whale watching is a wonder-
ful way to see these majestic animals up
close.
If you could afford to take a family of four
to a SeaWorld Park somewhere around the
country, then you can also take your family
to a place where you can watch the whales
from the shore, Ray said. Those are great
opportunities for seeing them where theyre
supposed to be... When I have friends that
come to me and say things like, Yeah I real-
ly want my kids to see them up close, (I
say), You know your kids love dinosaurs
right? They do. They are fascinated by
them. They have never seen a dinosaur have
they?

To the long list of actresses
whove thrived in Woody Allen
films, its now time to add Cate
Blanchett. And in big, capital let-
ters, because her spectacularly
wrenching performance in
Allens latest, Blue Jasmine,
lives up to every bit of hype you
may have heard.
As his fans well know, Allen,
77, keeps up the incredible pace
of about a film a year, and had
lately been focusing on frothy
comedic fare the whimsical hit
Midnight in Paris, and the less
successful From Rome with
Love.
Blue Jasmine, surely one of
his meatiest films in years, finds
him in different territory, both
geographically were back on
U.S. shores and emotionally,
addressing serious issues like the
Bernard Madoff financial scandal
and its social ramifications.
Its also a fascinating character
study of a woman trying to keep
her head above water, financially
and mentally, and as such, its a
clear homage to Tennessee
Williams A Streetcar Named
Desire and his tragically unsta-
ble Blanche DuBois. Some might
quibble with how much Allen bor-
rows, thematically, from that
play. But in such expert and lov-
ing hands, do we really care?
And who better than Blanchett,
who played such a searing
Blanche onstage several years
ago, to bring a 21st-century ver-
sion of the character to life on the
big screen?
Blanche, as reimagined here by
Allen, is Jasmine, an upper-crust
Manhattan socialite whose life
has gone seriously wrong.
Jasmine had been living, you see,
on Park Avenue and shopping
on Madison as the pampered
wife of high-flying investment
broker Hal (Alec Baldwin, per-
fect in this smarmy, Madoff-
inspired role.)
But its all fallen apart,
in spectacular Madoff
style, and Jasmine is
now flat broke. She
flies to San
Francisco in first
class and carrying
Vuitton luggage,
because some habits
are hard to break
to move in with sis-
ter Ginger.
Ginger was adopt-
ed from a different set
of biological parents,
which helps to
explain why shes
everything Jasmine
is not. A divorced
mom of two boys, she
works bagging gro-
ceries and dates an auto
mechanic named Chili.
The guy is gruff, tempera-
mental, unsophisticated
Stanley Kowalski, anyone?
but he and Ginger sure
have chemistry. British
actress Sally Hawkins is huge-
ly touching as Ginger, and the
passionate Bobby Cannavale,
with a cowlick or is it a bang?
to remember, is spot-on as
Chili you can almost hear him
yelling, Ste-LLA!! (Or, Gin-
GER!!)
Allen uses flashbacks to tell
the story of Jasmines past, while
in the present, she tries desper-
ately to get back on her feet, with
a dream of becoming an interior
decorator.
Blanchett is luminous in Allens Jasmine
By Jake Coyle
NEW YORK When Cate
Blanchett was last in New York, in
between her nightly performances
in the acclaimed touring produc-
tion of Uncle Vanya, she would
slip uptown, to the East Side, to
stealthily research her role in
Woody Allens latest, Blue
Jasmine.
In it, Blanchett plays Jasmine, a
socialite in breakdown, a modern
Blanche DuBois (a role Blanchett
played a few years ago on stage,
the detritus of which she says
stays with her), distraught and
destroyed by the betrayal of her
Bernie Madoff-like nancier hus-
band (Alec Baldwin). On Jasmines
stomping ground, the Upper East
Side, Blanchett bent her ear to the
neighborhoods accents of afu-
ence.
I drank way too much wine sit-
ting in restaurants by myself,
says Blanchett, today sitting in a
midtown ofce in a sleeveless
emerald green top and skirt.
The polished renement,
though, is only a small element
a surface that cracks to
Blanchetts enormously layered
performance in Blue Jasmine.
Her Jasmine is, as she says, a
fragile, combustible cocktail of
rage and guilt and fear. Penniless
in San Francisco, where shes
forced to stay at the working class
home of her sister (Sally
Hawkins), Jasmine is a vodka-
swilling, Xanax-popping mess of
self-loathing, denial and panic a
woman in free fall who cant bear
to face herself in the mirror.
Like many of the 44-year-old
actress best performances, includ-
ing her Oscar-nominated turn as
Elizabeth I in 1998s Elizabeth,
Jasmine is a mix of ruthlessness
(shes brutal to those she considers
inferior) and quaking vulnerabili-
t y. The performance has been
called a lock for an Academy Award
nomination, which would be her
sixth.
The roles complexity is partly
in the lms A Streetcar Named
Desire structure, toggling back
and forth between before the down-
fall (in New York and the
Hamptons) and after (San
Francisco). Blanchett carefully
charted Jasmines unraveling
across the ashbacks: You dont
want to at line, she says.
Jasmine is thus many people, radi-
antly elegant for some (Peter
Sarsgaard, as a moneyed suitor) and
condescendingly bitter to others
(Bobby Cannavale, as her sisters
blue-collar boyfriend).
People talk about actors pre-
tending, but you watch people and
a certain person walks into a room,
that person whos speaking to you
one minute completely changes,
says Blanchett. Were constantly
morphing into different outward
manifestations of ourselves.
Thats what I nd curious about
people. Its just that as Jasmine
progress through the story and her
situation becomes increasingly
desperate, those social identities
become increasingly fractured and
theyre not able to be a cohesive,
functioning person.

residents and visitors. The task force
brought its ndings and recommendations
to the City Council on Wednesday night.
Recommendations included creating a
HOT team or Homeless Outreach Team,
modeled off of programs in Redwood City
and San Mateo, that would work with the
police department to nd long-term solu-
tions for homeless by creating a list of the
top 20 chronic offenders to help rehabili-
tate. Getting rid of the St. Vincent de Pauls
Safe Harbor Shelter waiting list and work-
ing on switching over to referrals to the
countys core agencies is another goal.
The Field Crisis Outreach Team is an
exciting and proven model, said
Supervisor Dave Pine. There was one
woman who slept under a bush in front of
the Draegers [market] in San Mateo, she is
a changed person because of this program.
We can get this thing going, then in time
knock off other goals.
Pine said the funding would come from
Measure A, the countys half-cent sales tax
increase passed in November, pending
approval by the county Board of
Supervisors in September. He also said he
sees funding as being very likely for the
funds to carry through the budget of
$300,000 from the 2013-14 county budget
for a two-year Field Crisis Outreach Team for
North County. It would help fund one full-
time case manager to work with chronic
offenders in South San Francisco.
The report notes that day-to-day case
management is the key to linking homeless
to housing, nancial assistance, job train-
ing and placement programs.
Lorraine Moriarty, executive director of
St. Vincent de Paul of San Mateo County,
said the plan is a good attempt to move the
community along, but its not a solution.
I think were all hobos, so as we walk
hand in hand with the hobos in our commu-
nity, the changes affect all of us, Moriarty
said at the meeting. There have been some
changes in the community since the task
force met six months ago, such as the
requirement for homeless people entering
shelters to get TB tests. Weve still got a lot
to do to address the homelessness prob-
lem.
Lisa Collins, also of St. Vincent de Paul,
said she is also concerned there are still not
enough beds in the community for the
homeless. Collins and Moriarty were both
members of the task force.
Councilwoman Karyl Matsumoto said at
the meeting that she had concerns about the
services could attract more homeless people
into South San Francisco.
Brian Greenberg, Ph.D., vice president of
programs and services at InnVision Shelter
Network, participated in the task force and
said his program is good at getting home-
less people rehabilitated. He said theyd be
careful to do an evaluation and keeping a
list of people who actually have roots in the
community to be eligible for housing.
Others see positive growth in their pro-
gramming through the task force recom-
mendations. This includes Jeff Bayer, exec-
utive director of North Peninsula
Neighborhood Services Center in South San
Francisco. The center provides social serv-
ices such as their food bank, discounted
minor home repair services and community
education. Bayer sees the task force as a
positive step toward combating homeless
and directing people to use his service.
Im hoping that collectively were all
moving in the right direction, Bayer said.
We cant close our eyes, its not an issue
thats going away. The rst tool is being
able to deal with it, rather than sending peo-
ple off.
The City Council will bring an update on
how recommendations have been imple-
mented at a future date.

GLEN ELLYN, Ill. It skipped tolls. It
had a Twitter hashtag and a GPS tracker. It
even posed for photos with groupies.
The 50-foot-wide, 15-ton electromagnet
attracted a sensation wherever it went dur-
ing its slow, delicate 3,200-mile journey
from New York to suburban Chicago. The
land-and-sea trip culminated when scien-
tists threw a rock stars welcome for the
mysterious, shrink-wrapped cargo on
Friday as it arrived at the Fermi National
Accelerator Laboratory to help study blaz-
ing-fast particles.
Oh look, they found a flying saucer!
retired software developer Chris Otis
recalled thinking when he saw the mas-
sive, disc-shaped device when it made a
pit-stop in a Costco parking lot.
Otis used his cellphone to take photos as
he and others marveling the contraption
wondered what would happen if it suddenly
went live. Electromagnets need an electric
current to work.
I figure somebody at Fermilab is going
to plug the damn thing in, turn it on and
my watch is going to stop running, every-
bodys hearing aides are going to sail
across the room, Otis said with a laugh. I
have no idea. Turn it on and the Martians
will hone in on it.
Fermilab officials plan to use the magnet
in a physics experiment called Muon g-2
that will study subatomic particles at their
lab in Batavia, outside Chicago. The
experiment will study the properties of
muons, subatomic particles that live only
2.2 millionths of a second.
The results of the experiment could cre-
ate new discoveries in the realm of particle
physics, said Chris Polly, manager of the
Muon g-2 project at Fermilab.
The hulking magnet is a hand-me-down
from New York, where it was built in the
1990s with aluminum and steel by scien-
tists at the Brookhaven National Lab on
eastern Long Island. It has superconduct-
ing coils inside and, at the time it was
built, was the largest electromagnet in the
world.

ness for our cause and the impact a soc-
cer ball can make in the lives of chil-
dren, said Mitchell.
Nigerian children are being motivat-
ed to attend and perform in school due
to the success of the newly formed soc-
cer leagues, he said.
Annual benefit
Now, Mitchell works with Pencil for
Kids, an organization providing class-
room supplies, programs, libraries and
schools to communities in need. With
its help, he is hosting the Sixth Annual
Benet at Behans Irish Pub 3 p.m. to 9
p.m. July 28.
The event will feature live music, all
kinds of food and door prizes. The grand
prize will be a 2014 Brazilian World
Cup adventure. Winners will lodge for a
week at the Paraty Beach, in Brazil,
where he currently lives. The prize also
includes hiking and kayaking excur-
sions.
This year we are doing Ph.D. work
on measurements and research over
what happened in the last six years, so
we can apply for big grants, said
Mitchell.
The next big project is to install a
solar energy unit to bring water from
the river.
The river is an hour away, so a buck-
et of water in the scorching Niger heat
is not worth it, said Mitchell.
To get the solar unit approved,
Mitchell needs the grants to proceed
with his research. That is why Pencil
for Kids along with Mitchell are host-
ing the Annual Benet for Kids. If suc-
cessful, the event will pay for the
research.
I dont want to go over there and
spend $7,000 on travel alone when we
could pay for someone who is over
there already, said Mitchell.
With the money he has raised in the
past, the organization has inserted the
Farmers of the Future program, built
three schools and organized a soccer
league for the children.
We are teaching children modern
agricultural technologies, because they
will learn how to grow sufficient
foods, said Mitchell. Looking at the
big picture, Im just connecting people
who are interested in helping out.

tion when sentenced Sept. 20. The
Santa Clara County Probation
Department will prepare the pre-sen-
tencing report.
Visiting Judge Robert Atack denied a
prosecution request to immediately take
Forrest into custody but referenced his
admitted history of attempts to take his
own life, calling suicide an awful solu-
tion.
My greatest concern is your own
safety, to tell you the truth, Atack said.
With its guilty decision, the jury
indicated it did not believe the defenses
contention the more than 400 porno-
graphic images and videos found on
Forrests county-issued electronic
devices were work-related. Defense
attorney Jaime Leanos had also told
jurors during closing arguments
Thursday that law enforcement rushed
to judgment after finding his name
among billing information conscated
from a raided lm distribution compa-
ny, Azov Films
Deputy Attorney General Johnette
Jauron, prosecuting Forrest before a
visiting judge to avoid any conict of
interest, methodically called other law
enforcement members to explain that
he did not follow any of the accepted
protocol for investigating child
pornography such as documentation
and not mixing personal and work busi-
ness on the same computer.
On Dec. 20, federal investigators led
by the U.S. Postal Service searched
Forrests juvenile hall ofce and the San
Mateo home of his parents where he
spent the majority of the work week.
Forrest disposed of one laptop bag and
allegedly removed the hard drives of his
bedroom computers before he was
detained but investigators conscated a
laptop, Blackberry and thumb drive
which contained photos arranged in
folders and PowerPoint les with names
like Feel the sting and my boys.
That same night, Forrest slashed a
three-inch cut into his neck on the
steps of a San Mateo church. He was
subsequently hospitalized in a psychi-
atric unit and, 10 days later, resigned
his post.
During trial, Leanos said the suicide
attempt was just one of ve for Forrest
and said the investigation was not the
only factor for a man dealing with major
depression and job stress that also led
him to drink. Although feeling miser-
able after being named chief probation
ofcer in 2009, Forrest testied it was
the pinnacle of his career and, despite
being an administrator, still remained
hands-on in investigation. Forrest was
so involved he often did his own
research and projects which is why child
pornography is no different, several for-
mer probation employees testied.
Forrest wanted to expand the depart-
ments human trafcking knowledge
and policy because of state criminal
realignment, a new push against the
crime and seeing non-inclusion of
exploited boys, he said.
He testied that county rewalls pre-
vented him from Internet searches at
work and the other workers said he
probably didnt have the questionable
lms sent to his ofce because county
mail is opened before delivery.
He purchased and watched videos like
Beach Bums 1 and 2 because the
movie covers were only mildly sug-
gestive and marketed as naturist lms
highlighting youth so he wanted to
conrm the material was exploitative.
However, the deputy probation ofcer
Forrest assigned to develop a protocol
on human trafcking the reason he
gave for buying five pornographic
lms and conducting thousands of Web
searches on key words like spanking
testied there was no direction to
focus on or research pornography like
that found on his devices.
Instead, Jauron told jurors Forrest was
a collector of pornography with a
narrow fetish rather than a committed
ofcial looking at a wide spectrum of
images. Once caught, she continued, he
tried manipulating investigators,
destroying evidence and acting as
though he was above the law.
Forrest remains free from custody on
$100,000 bail.
Leanos did not return a call for com-
ment.
FORREST
People cant afford to live here, and
not just people who are poor, said
HIPs executive director Kate Comfort
Harr in a press release. Anyone mak-
ing less than $85,000 a year is going
to struggle in San Mateo County This
affects the health and well-being of not
only our families but our community
and economy as well.
Harr said shes seen increases in rent
since 2006, but the most dramatic
shifts have been in the last three to ve
years.
She said the primary effect on her
services has been that she has very few
options for clients.
The only thing available is the
home sharing program, which matches
people with others that have space in
their homes, Harr said. Seniors like
to use this because they can get home
services in exchange for companion-
ship.
HIP is now hiring an outreach coordi-
nator to recruit more homes for the
home sharing program.
The countys homeless rate has risen
12 percent since 2011, according to a
report from the countys new Health and
Human Services Agency.
Meanwhile, the Silicon Valley
Community Foundation recently
announced it will be cutting all funding
to their Safety Net Service granting
program after this year. More than 37
food and shelter agencies in San Mateo
and Santa Clara counties are impacted
by the decision.

I give myself a pat on the back because
Im a survivor, Pallas said, an employee of
Chevron formerly Standard Oil until
1985.
Pallas said his time in Korea has affected
him throughout the years. He was just 22
went he was drafted into the war in 1951 and
returned home in April of 1953. He said he
adjusted well when he returned to the states,
but was left with no left toes, a bullet that
still remains in his knee today, a lost index
nger and a buzzing noise left from a con-
cussion still rings in his head.
As a former POW who lived with death
scenes and seizures, when you lose family,
you anticipate it and your mind goes back to
then, Pallas said. I go onto post-traumat-
ic stress. It puts stress on you.
Pallas said putting down his thoughts
on paper has helped him cope with the
trauma his faced while away in Korea. He
said his main reason for pushing to sur-
vive was because he didnt want his moth-
er Irene to go through more loss since he
had seen the effects of his fathers death
on her. Pallas did return home 78 pounds
lighter.
Talking about being a POW when I rst
came home was very tough, Pallas said.
My close friends would break down hearing
me, so a few years back I wrote a memoir and
that helped me get things out. I didnt want
to write too much of the hardships though.
In organizations hes joined, including
the American Legion and Veterans of
Foreign Wars USA, he said he nds he is the
only POW. He said his unique position
makes it hard to nd others with which to
relate.
On Nov. 7, 1951, Pallas job was to
observe the enemys forts. When an attack
came, he and his group were told to leave the
hill. When he noticed a couple of his friends
were missing, he went back to looking for
them, but was shot in the legs. He
approached the bunkers and a grenade was
thrown at him and the troops. Pallas said he
caught the grenade and threw it back, but the
explosion took off his right index nger.
This began his stint as a POW.
Pallas, a father to two stepsons, said he
kept in contact with the people he served
with in Korea up until last year.
You have things happening with fami-
l y, Pallas said. My wife Irma has
Parkinsons now.
Irma and Ted will celebrate their 37th wed-
ding anniversary on Tuesday, just 10 days
after Teds 85th birthday.
Pallas emphasizes that he was drafted into
the military.
I say a person who enlists loves war,
while a person who is drafted hates war,
Pallas said. When I got home I was treated
differently than other soldiers because I
wasnt a regular army person I was draft-
ed. I was treated more like more of a normal
vet once a general wrote a letter vouching
for me.
Pallas also touched upon the fact that the
Korean War is known as the Forgotten
War.
Korea, never heard of it. But got there in
spite of it ... I remember the wars in Bosnia,
Vietnam and World War II, I remember the
war in Korea, too, do you? Pallas wrote in
a poem entitled I Remember Korea.
Pallas worries about recent war veterans
today who he said are not getting the credit
or compensation they deserve.
Theyre treated poorly even though
theyve made huge sacrices, Pallas said.
Thousands are waiting at VAhospitals for
treatment. As a 100 percent disabled vet
myself, Ive had others call me a freeloader
for using veteran benets.
He is wary of American wars.
We really cant be the 911 for the rest of
the world; we could be destroying our coun-
try, Pallas said. People arent appreciat-
ing what were doing. The economy is
going busted and we need to take care of
whats ours rst. Why are we the only coun-
try ghting for other countries?
PALLAS
II and Vietnam, is beset with problems
including bureaucratic dysfunction,
according to an internal Pentagon report
disclosed July 7 by the Associated Press.
The common thread that binds these two
legacies is the lingering hostility
between the North and South and between
the North and Washington, which still
has no formal diplomatic relations with
the communist nation. What began as a
Cold War contest, with the former Soviet
Union and China siding with the North
and the U.S. and United Nations allies
supporting the South, remains one of the
worlds most dangerous flashpoints. In
some respects, the security threat from
the North has grown more acute in recent
years.
So the U.S. is stuck with a lead wartime
role in Korea and with a dim prospect, if
any, of building the kind of relationship
required to return to the former battlefields
of North Korea to excavate remains of
U.S. MIAs. The Pentagon says there are
about 7,900 MIAs, of which approximate-
ly half are thought to be recoverable.
President Barack Obama marks the
armistices 60th anniversary with a speech
Saturday at the Korean War Veterans
Memorial.
The U.S. has kept combat forces on the
Korean Peninsula since the ghting halted
on July 27, 1953, with the signing of an
armistice, or truce, and it still has 28,500
troops based in the South. They are a sym-
bol of a vibrant and important U.S.-South
Korean alliance, and few advocate even a
partial American troop withdrawal. But
some U.S. military ofcers believe their
permanence on the peninsula, with a singu-
lar focus on North Korea, is an anachronis-
tic arrangement that should have been over-
hauled years ago.
The armistice agreement itself did not
envision a long-term U.S. troop presence.
It contains a passage recommending that
within three months a high-level political
conference be convened to negotiate the
withdrawal of all foreign forces from Korea
and the peaceful settlement of the Korean
question. That has never happened.
Bruce Bennett, a Korea expert at the
RAND Corp., a federally funded think tank,
says he believes the argument for giving
Seoul wartime command of its own troops
loses ground as North Koreas nuclear ambi-
tions grow bolder. The North has tested
nuclear devices and may be capable of
mounting one on a ballistic missile a
worry not only for South Korea, Japan and
others in the region but also for the United
States.
