WASHINGTON Asurprisingly
robust job market is energizing
the 5-year-old U.S. recovery and
driving the economy closer to full
health.
Employers added 288,000 jobs
in June and helped cut the unem-
ployment rate to 6.1 percent, the
lowest since 2008. It was the fth
straight gain above 200,000
the best such stretch since the late
1990s tech boom.
The stock mar-
ket signaled its
approval. The
Dow Jones indus-
trial average
surged 92 points
to top 17,000 for the rst time.
The breadth and consistency of
the job growth are striking in
part because of how poorly the
year began. The economy shrank
at a steep 2.9 percent annual rate
in the January-March quarter as a
harsh winter contributed to the
sharpest contraction since the
depths of the recession.
Yet employers have shrugged off
that setback. Theyve kept hiring.
The unemployment rate dipped
from 6.3 percent in May to its
lowest level since the financial
crisis struck with full force in the
fall of 2008, when the Wall Street
rm Lehman Brothers went bank-
rupt.
This has now become a text-
book jobs expansion, said

OC ex-student awarded
$3.8M for metal shop injury
SANTA ANA An Orange County
jury has awarded $3.8 million to a for-
mer high school student whose hand
was badly injured in a metal shop
class.
City News Service says the award
was made Wednesday in Bryan
Zavalas lawsuit against the Newport-
Mesa Unied School District.
Zavala was 16 when three of his n-
gers got stuck between a sander and a
work table in a 2011 accident.
His lawsuit contended that the
machine was dangerous and improper-
ly placed and that the teacher taught an
improper grinding technique and failed
to supervise students.

woman werent immediately returned.
Fraternity suspended
after pledge dies during hike
LOS ANGELES A fraternity at
California State University,
Northridge, has been ordered to sus-
pend all its activities while the school
and sheriffs detectives investigate the
death of a 19-year-old pledge on a
hike, ofcials said.
An administrative probe of Pi Kappa
Phi was launched Wednesday, a day
after the death of Armando Villa in the
Angeles National Forest, school
spokeswoman Carmen Ramos
Chandler told the Los Angeles Times.
A Los Angeles County sheriffs
statement said Villa was in a group
hiking off Big Tujunga Canyon Road
and passed out along the trail after
they apparently ran out of water.
Temperatures were in the upper 80s for
much of the afternoon.
Homicide detectives were conduct-
ing an accidental death investigation
and have interviewed family members,
the statement said.
Villa, a Sylmar resident, was head-
ing into his second year at Cal State
Northridge. He and other pledges were
with some previously initiated mem-
bers for the fraternity-planned outing,
said Justin Angotti, the Pi Kappa Phis
assistant executive director of educa-
tion and accountability.
Villa participated in spring recruit-
ment and was scheduled to be initiated
sometime before students returned for
the fall semester, Angotti told the
newspaper.
The chapter has since suspended its
activities while local authorities and
the national fraternity investigate the
situation.
Pi Kappa Phis national ofce said it
is fully participating with investiga-
tors.
The fraternity chapter at Cal State
Northridge was chartered in 1989 and
has 40 members, the Times said. It
recruits students in both the spring
and the fall.
Man accused of setting
20 fires in Los Angeles
LOS ANGELES Prosecutors say a
man described as a transient has been
charged with setting more than 20
small trash fires throughout Los
Angeles this year.
Forty-three-year-old Salvador
Munguia pleaded not guilty this week
to the string of res.
The most recent res burned dry grass
in the Boyle Heights area. Prosecutors
say trash cans, discarded furniture and
piles of leaves were set ablaze between
April and June.
Munguia, whom authorities described
as a transient, was arrested June 27 near
the scene of a small re.
The res were small and caused no
signicant damage.
If convicted on all counts, he could
be sentenced to up to 20 years in state
prison.
California woman accused
of abducting grandchild
PHOENIX A California woman
has been arrested after allegedly abduct-
ing her infant granddaughter, who was
later found unharmed in Arizona.
Maricopa County Sheriffs ofcials
say 57-year-old Carolyn Ruth Ferguson
of Huntington Beach was located
Wednesday night along with the 6-
month-old girl at a gasoline station in
Tonopah, west of Phoenix.

Technology is helping enhance the educa-
tion of students at the Adult School in San
Mateo, with a new program that allows edu-
cators to post videos of their classes
online.
For some students who work full time and
take evening classes at the school to com-
plete their General Education Diploma,
making it to every class can be difcult, said
teacher Alesha Tovar.
Class videos began going up three
months ago and students like the extra sup-
port. So far, clips of lessons online are the
imperative, future conditional tense and
other English grammar exercises from about
ve teachers.
We were all talking about ways to reach
out to our students and connect with them,
she said. Its for students whove missed
classes, so they can stay up to date. Its
2014 everyones on the Internet and
social media. We needed to nd a way to con-
nect with students who fall behind and stop
coming. Once we get more videos up there,
it will help the students.
Tovar came up with the idea last summer,
while Carol Gonella, a teacher at the Adult
School since 2001 and former longtime
school board member, went through a spe-
cial seminar in September 2013. The two-
day training helps teachers develop tech-
nology and mentorship programs. This
training helped Gonella launch Tovars
vision for connecting with students. The
school provided Gonella with a camera and
wireless speakers and she helps lm the
courses.
You would be so amazed to see their (the
students) faces [when they see the videos],
said Gonella, an English as a second lan-
guage teacher. They say, Its you. Where
do we get this?
Gonella said shes found that every stu-
dent, even those who dont miss class,
review the videos, which she edits and posts
to a website she created. Videos are usually
posted two or three days after the class.
Its very useful as a supplement, she
said. The most important thing in learning
English is to learn to speak.
Gonella is no stranger to technology. She
got her rst computer in 1982 and has been
making other videos for the school since
2003. She and Tovar hope to expand the
videos to more classes.

LOS ANGELES Jurors who deadlocked
over whether to nd the Dodgers negligent
in the savage beating of a Giants fan failed
to reach a verdict again Thursday and must
return to work on Monday after a long holi-
day weekend.
Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge
Victor E. Chavez ordered the panel to keep
talking on Wednesday after being told that
the panel couldnt get at least nine of its 12
members to agree.
Bryan Stow, a 45-year-old former para-
medic from Northern California, is suing
the Dodgers and former owner Frank
McCourt, contending there was inadequate
security during the 2011 opening game
where he was injured.
Stow suffered severe brain damage when
he was attacked in the parking lot of Dodger
Stadium after the game with the San
Francisco Giants.
Stow was knocked down from behind, hit
his head on the pavement and then was
kicked in the head.
Dodger fans Louie Sanchez and Marvin
Norwood pleaded guilty in the attack.
Medical experts testied that Stow will
never work again and has suffered repeated
strokes and seizures. They said he will
always require around-the-clock care.
The lawsuit seeks $37.5 million for
Stows lifetime care and compensation for
lost earnings.
Stow attorney Tom Girardi has urged
jurors to award double that gure for pain
and suffering.

Man arrested one
day after leaving jail
Aman was arrested in Half Moon Bay for
leading police on a foot chase and commit-
ting a felony just a day
after he got out of jail on
bail.
Jose Monroy-Casillas,
a 32-year-old transient,
was driving on a suspend-
ed license when he was
stopped at Pine and
Pilarcitos avenues before
5:59 p.m. on Tuesday,
according to the San
Mateo County Sheriffs
Ofce.
Monroy-Casillas bailed out of jail June 30
after he was arrested June 19 for allegedly
being in possession of a controlled sub-
stance and bringing narcotics into jail.
Monroy-Casillas ran from his vehicle
after being pulled over and a foot pursuit
ensued, according to the Sheriffs Ofce.
A California Highway Patrol ofcer who
was conducting a trafc stop nearby joined
the deputy and they were able to detain
Monroy Casillas at the Cabrillo Unied
School District ofce parking lot at 498
Kelly Ave., according to the Sheriffs Ofce.
Monroy-Casillas reportedly admitted to
having methamphetamines in his pocket
and being under the inuence. He was arrest-
ed for being under the inuence and in pos-
session of a controlled substance, resisting
arrest, driving on a suspended license and
committing a felony while on bail, accord-
ing to the Sheriffs Ofce.
Half Moon Bay
stabbing defendant to trial
A 20-year-old alleged gangmember
accused of stabbing a landscape in his truck
at a Half Moon Bay shopping center will
stand trail for assault, a judge ruled after a
preliminary hearing on the evidence.
Francisco Manuel Miramontes, of Half
Moon Bay, has pleaded not guilty but was
held to answer for the May 22 attack.
Around 1:30 p.m. that day, the victim was
working with his fellow crew for Allied
Landscape Services at the Strawflower
Shopping Center. The man was driving the
company truck when prosecutors say
Miramontes and three others yelled Half
Moon Bay at him. When the victim
responded that they were in fact in Half
Moon Bay, Miramontes allegedly ran up and
stabbed him repeatedly in the arm through
the open truck window.
Deputies arrested Miramontes at home
hours later and the victim was treated for
non-life threatening injuries.
Miramontes remains in custody on
$100,000 bail and returns to court July 18 to
enter a Superior Court plea.
Former teacher wanted on
child porn charges caught at SFO
A former elementary school teacher who
ed after his 2013 arrest by San Jose police
on child pornography charges was captured
Wednesday at San Francisco International
Airport, federal ofcials said.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection of-
cers took Nathan Forstell, 45, into custody
on an outstanding warrant for possession of
obscene materials in San Jose after he
arrived at the airport from Vietnam, customs
ofcials said.
Customs had tracked Forstells interna-
tional travel by air to the United States
based on his status as a wanted fugitive and
turned him over to the San Jose Police
Department, according to customs ofcials.
San Jose police had arrested Forstell on
March 13, 2013, at the Martin Luther King
Elementary School in Seaside after nding
about 1,000 pornographic pictures of chil-
dren as young as 4 years old on a computer
in his East San Jose home in the 200 block
of La Pala Drive, accord-
ing to police.
The images included
pre-pubescent children
aged 4 to 9 engaged in
sexual acts that must
have been traumatizing
to the victims, according
to the Police
Departments sexual
assault unit. After San
Jose police arrested him
at the Seaside school, Forstell was released
on his own recognizance, according to
police.
Police had targeted Forstell after a routine
surveillance of Internet websites where users
swapped sexual images of children that
found his computers IP address on the site.
When he was arrested, Forstell was
employed full-time as a physical education
teacher for grades 1 to 5 at the Seaside
school, according to police.
Forstell also had worked as a substitute
teacher in San Jose for the Alum Rock Union
Elementary School District at 11 of the dis-
tricts 27 schools from 2009 to Feb.10,
2013, district ofcials said.
Detectives found no evidence that Forstell
manufactured digital images of sexual acts
involving children himself or that he phys-
ically abused any children, police reported.

Owner of adult-escort website pleads not guilty
The owner of a Northern California-based adult website
has pleaded not guilty to charges he facilitated prostitution
and laundered money.
Myredbook.com owner Eric Red Omuro entered the
plea in a San Francisco federal courtroom on Wednesday,
one week after he was arrested after being indicted by a fed-
eral grand jury.
Federal agents seized the website and raided the 54-year-
old Omuros house in Mountain View on June 25.
Authorities accuse the website of allowing sex performers
and adult entertainers to solicit clients for their services.
Omuros attorney, Nanci Clarence, said the government
is overreaching. She plans to ght the case on First
Amendment grounds.
Omuro is out on $500,000 bond. He is due back in court
on July 10.
Credit union robber gets three years prison
A man was sentenced to three years in prison on
Wednesday for a robbery at a Redwood City credit union,
according to prosecutors.
Carmen Polito, 30, pleaded no contest in March in con-
nection with the July 23, 2013, robbery of the Provident
Credit Union at 210 Redwood Shores Parkway, according to
San Mateo District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe.
No weapon was displayed in the robbery, in which the
suspect handed a teller a note ordering him to hand over the
money.
Polito was identied as a suspect in the robbery due in
part to his distinctive tattoos, Wagstaffe said.
In addition to the prison sentence, Polito was ordered to
pay restitution to the credit union of $454, Wagstaffe said.

policies with his criticism of the feder-
al governments efforts to handle the
thousands of immigrants, many of
them mothers and children, who have
ooded the Texas border.
Some of those immigrants were
own to California and were supposed
to be processed at a Border Patrol facil-
ity in Murrieta, a fast-growing commu-
nity in the conservative-leaning
Inland Empire region. But protesters
blocked the road, forcing federal of-
cials to take the immigrants elsewhere.
Asecond protest is planned for July
4, when another convoy of buses with
immigrants is rumored to arrive.
Weve had it, said Carol
Schlaepfer, a retired Pomona resident
who protested Tuesday in Murrieta. We
all want a better life. ... You cant come
to our country and expect American cit-
izens to dole out what you need, from
grade school till death.
People on both sides of the issue
want immigration reform, but immi-
grant rights advocates say anti-illegal
immigration protesters chastise the
mostly women and children crossing
the border.
California city is latest

WASHINGTON President Barack
Obama is facing mounting calls from
Republicans to take a rsthand look at
the immigration emergency at the
U.S.-Mexico border, putting him on
the spot concerning what he has called
the humanitarian crisis of tens of
thousands of unaccompanied children
ooding in from Central America.
If he doesnt come to the border, I
think its a real reection of his lack of
concern of whats
really going on
there, declared
Texas Gov. Rick
Perry, a possible
GOP presidential
candidate in 2016.
The White House
said Thursday that
Obama currently has
no plans to visit the
border when he travels to Texas next
week, primarily to fundraise for
Democratic congressional candidates.
Atrip to the border could result in awk-
ward optics for the president, who
would be unlikely to meet with young-
sters hes seeking to deport and would
risk upsetting immigration advocates
who oppose the deportations if he
were to meet with border patrol agents
or other law enforcement.
Administration officials say that
Perry and other Republicans are merely
trying to score political points rather
than working to resolve a major prob-
lem. But the political concerns arent
so easily dismissed for Obama.

JULIAN Crews scrambled
Thursday to corral a wildre that
burned two homes in Southern
California and threatened hundreds
of others as an older, larger blaze
endangered more homes in rural
Northern California.
Ablaze that erupted around 10:30
a.m. prompted the mandatory evac-
uation of 200 homes in central San
Diego County near the mountain
town of Julian.
Fireghters attacked the 150-acre
blaze in the air and on the ground.
The re destroyed two homes and an
outbuilding and was 15 percent
contained, state re Capt. Kendal
Bortisser said.
Julian, an historic gold-mining
town and popular tourist spot, can-
celed its Fourth of July parade and
celebration.
There was no immediate word on
what sparked the blaze.
The same area near Cleveland
National Forest is where an 11-
square-mile blaze destroyed more
than 100 mountain cabins just a
year ago.
Meanwhile, the re in Northern
Californias Napa County grew to
more than 6.5 square miles as the
re raced uphill. The steep and
rugged terrain also forced reght-
ers to build containment lines with-
out bulldozers, said Alicia Amaro, a
spokeswoman for the California
Department of Forestry and Fire
Protection.
The blaze had scorched more than
4,300 acres by its third day, state
re spokesman Daniel Berlant said.
It has damaged nine structures,
including the two homes. The re
was burning to the north, away
from the countys famed vineyards.
It has not come anywhere close
to what we consider Napa Valley
wineries, said Cate Conniff, a
spokeswoman for the Napa Valley
Vintners, a nonprot trade associa-
tion.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.
Arizonas largest city has gone
four months without any measura-
ble rain, and neighboring New
Mexico is in the midst of four
years of severe drought.
But youll still see and hear re-
works sparkle and pop during the
days around July 4, despite the
dangerously high threat of wild-
res.
While some places in the West
ban reworks altogether, or great-
ly limit what you can light off
when conditions are ripe for re,
other states are going in the oppo-
site direction.
Arizona actually loosened its
restrictions this year and is now
allowing residents of the two most
populated cities to set off fire-
works in the days around
Independence Day, and an effort
by the New Mexico governor to
impose tougher rules during dry
times has repeatedly fallen on deaf
ears in the Legislature.
Some lawmakers chalk it up to
statehouse politics, while others
say its politicians reluctance to
impose more regulations and take
away the cherished tradition of
setting off fireworks, even in
severe droughts.
Phil Griego, a northern New
Mexico rancher and a Democratic
state senator, said the pastures
around his village are so dry that
the grass crunches under the
hooves of horses and cattle when
ranchers move the animals from
one eld to the next.
Griego tried during this years
legislative session to pass a
measure that would have updated
New Mexicos fireworks laws to
give cities and counties more
authority to ban fireworks when
fire danger is high. Political
wrangling stalled the measure in
the Democrat-controlled Senate
despite bipartisan support from
lawmakers, fire chiefs around the
state and Republican Gov. Susan
Martinez, who has been pushing
since 2011 for changes to the
law.
This is critical because I dont
think this drought and this situa-
tion were in right now is going to
pass any time soon, Griego said.

SACRAMENTO The
Legislature adjourned for its sum-
mer recess Thursday without meet-
ing its top remaining priority:
overhauling the $11. 1 billion
water bond scheduled to go before
voters this fall.
The existing measure, which
will appear on the November bal-
lot as Proposition 43, passed in
2009 under then-Gov. Arnold
Schwarzenegger, but it has been
delayed twice. Most lawmakers
have agreed it is too large, lled
with special-interest pork and too
contentious to win voter
approval. But they have struggled
to nd a compromise.
The most difcult thing about
this whole discussion is it took
six years last time, said
Assembly Republican Leader
Connie Conway, who served dur-
ing the last negotiations. Its
like a telenovela with really ugly
actors: Its drama, drama, drama.
The deadline to change the bal-
lot measure is sometime in
August.
Areplacement water bond requires
support from Gov. Jerry Brown and
two-thirds of lawmakers in each
house, including Republicans in the
Senate, where Democrats are short
of a supermajority. All are under
pressure from environmentalists,
farmers, water exporters and trade
unions, among other interests.
Even within parties, lawmakers
have been divided among regional
lines for water needs.

How strong is that
drink? Calculator helps figure
WASHINGTON How strong is
that pina colada? Depending on
how its made, it could contain as
much alcohol as two glasses of
wine.
The National Institutes of Health
is trying to spread the word: Take a

tor to see how much youre really
drinking with those summer cock-

Astandard drink is the amount
of alcohol in a 12-ounce beer, 5
ounces of wine or 1.5 ounces of
distilled spirits. Its a useful way to
track alcohol consumption. But
the multiple ingredients of mixed
drinks make for a harder count.
Most people dont realize how
much alcohol is actually in a
drink, said Dr. George Koob,
director of the NIHs National
Institute on Alcohol Abuse and
Alcoholism.
Obviously it depends on the
bartender and whos mixing the
drinks, Koob adds.

Arthur threatens Fourth
of July plans along East Coast
KILL DEVIL HILLS, N.C. A strengthening Hurricane
Arthur forced thousands of vacationers on the North
Carolina coast to abandon their Independence Day plans
while cities farther up the East Coast rescheduled reworks
displays threatened by rain from the storm.
Arthur strengthened to a Category 2 hurricane Thursday
night, with winds of 100 mph as the storm neared North
Carolina. Little change was expected in the storms
strength Thursday night and Friday, and Arthur was expect-
ed to weaken as it travels northward and slings rain along
the East Coast.
The annual Boston Pops Fourth of July concert and re-
works show was rescheduled for Thursday because of poten-
tial heavy rain from Arthur, while reworks displays in
New Jersey, Maine and New Hampshire were postponed
until later in the weekend.
Either later Thursday or early Friday, Arthur was expected
to pass over or near North Carolina and its Outer Banks
a 200-mile string of narrow barrier islands with about
57,000 permanent residents.
We dont know for sure if the exact center of Arthur is
going to pass over land or not. The chances have been
increasing for that to occur with the last couple of fore-
casts. But even if the exact center doesnt go over you, you
will experience impacts tonight. The weather is going
downhill in North Carolina, even as we speak, said Rick
Knabb, the director of the U.S. National Hurricane Center
in Miami.
Positive numbers, but politicians hedge their bets
WASHINGTON Does anyone in politics dare talk up
the economy? Apparently not.
After ve months of steady job growth and with unem-
ployment hitting a six-year low, the reaction in
Washington Thursday was a collective Yeah, but ...
Across the political spectrum, liberals and conservatives
still found reason to despair and point ngers a function
of election-year politics, been-there-before skepticism and
honest perceptions by many Americans that the recovery
has yet to improve their lives.
Consider this from Democratic Sen. Amy Klobuchar of
Minnesota: Too many working families are still treading
water. Our focus now must be on solutions that strengthen
the middle class and give more hardworking Americans a
fair shot by raising the minimum wage, making college
more affordable, and investing in workforce training.
And this from Republican Party Chairman Reince
Priebus: Were glad to see some Americans found work last
month, but we cant rest until jobs are easy to nd. Thats
why Republicans have passed dozens of jobs bills in the
House of Representatives. Sadly, Democrats in
Washington, D.C., have other priorities.

BAGHDAD With large parts of
Iraq in militant hands, a top Kurdish
leader called on regional lawmakers
Thursday to lay the groundwork for a
referendum on independence, a vote
that would likely spell the end of a uni-
ed Iraq.
The recent blitz by Sunni militants
across much of northern and western
Iraq has given the countrys 5 million
Kurds who have long agitated for
independence their best chance ever
to seize disputed territory and move
closer to a decades-old dream of their
own state.
But the Kurds still face considerable
opposition from many in the interna-
tional community, including the
United States, which has no desire to
see a fragmented Iraq.
AWestern-established no-y zone in
1991 helped the Kurds set up their
enclave, which has emerged over the
years as a beacon of stability and pros-
perity, while much of the rest of the
country has been mired in violence and
political turmoil. The three-province
territory was formally recognized as an
autonomous region within Iraq follow-
ing the U.S.-led invasion in 2003 that
toppled dictator Saddam Hussein.
Speaking to the regional legislature
Thursday, the president of the
Kurdistan Regional Government,
Massoud Barzani, told lawmakers to
set up an electoral commission to
hurry up and prepare for a referen-
dum on self-determination.
We will be in a better position and
we will have better (political) weapons
in our hands. But how we will do this?
he said. What kind of steps will there
be? For this, you have to study the
issue and take steps in this direction. It
is time to decide our self-determination
and not wait for other people to decide
for us.
Barzani spoke behind closed doors,
but the Associated Press obtained a
video of his address.

JERUSALEM The Israeli military
rushed additional forces to its southern
border with the Gaza Strip on
Thursday, vowing to halt a growing
wave of rocket fire from the
Palestinian territory, while new clash-
es erupted in east Jerusalem in
response to the death of an Arab boy
who Palestinians say was killed by
Israeli extremists.
Israel said the show of force on the
Gaza border was a defense measure. But
persistent rocket fire raised the
prospects of a tough Israeli response,
with the military saying more than 40
rockets or mortar shells were red from
Hamas-controlled Gaza on Thursday.
Tensions have been high since three
Israeli teenagers were abducted in the
West Bank on June 12, sparking a
massive manhunt that ended with the
discovery of their bodies early this
week. Israel has blamed Hamas for the
abductions and launched a crackdown
on the Islamic militant group in the
West Bank, drawing rocket attacks out
of Gaza and Israeli airstrikes in a near-
daily cycle of retaliation.

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

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

OPINION 9
Oversize vehicles
Editor,
I can understand why San Mateo
residents on Mariners Island
Boulevard are frustrated with over-
size vehicles. When the new vehicle
code was passed, the neighbors in
North Central were excited. Nothing
has changed for us either, and in fact
we have more industrial trucks
parked on our streets than before.
Our city does not know the defini-
tion of eyesore to begin with. We
were told that at a City Council
meeting when the city was design-
ing this new code. I attended those
meetings and even had pictures of
industrial trucks that were more than
eyesores they were also over 7
and 1/2 feet. Not one of these trucks
are off our streets, and we now have
twice as many of these trucks
because they are under the code
requirement.
Because of the overcrowding that
this city has allowed, we no longer
have any parking for home resi-
dents. It also presents a safety issue
because in North Central some areas
do not have enough room for two-
way street traffic. Tow trucks are
parked on residential streets that
prevent two-way traffic from pass-
ing each other.
We have a Home Occupation code
that should prevent these businesses
from using residential street park-
ing. Again, this city has refused to
enforce this code and our City
Council never really took the time
to investigate what our parking
issues were about.
I suggest next time we have to
vote for any councilmember we have
city debates. We can have a repre-
sentative from each community ask
questions that would pertain to their
needs. Maybe with debates we can at
least vote for someone who will
take the time to help our communi-
ties.

Lawmakers hopeful
about state budget
Editor,
Thanks for reporting on the state
budget, what our local reps think
about it, and its eventual adoption
(Lawmakers hopeful about state
budget in the June 17 edition of the
Daily Journal).
It is interesting to note state Sen.
Jerry Hills interest in the high-
speed rail program and the funding
through this budget. I get that he is
interested but he lacks a bit, well a
lot, of clarity on what was passed in
2008, and why.
This helps to address the Bay
Areas transit woes, Hill said, as
Caltrains electrification project
hinges on high-speed rail funds.
Place money where we can get the
biggest bang for the buck and thats
really why I supported moving for-
ward with high-speed rail, if well
continue to see the benefit of those
funds locally and in very meaningful
transit improvements ... were not
just wasting money on a train to
nowhere. The money will be focused
on getting us some immediate utility
and benefit that will get cars off the
road, Hill said.
Proposition 1A passed to actually
partially fund the start of high-speed
rail. The irony here is that with poor
high-speed rail plans and planning,
and minimal financing (not enough
to complete the first segment as
required in the Proposition 1A bond
measure), lawmakers are eager to
claim high-speed rail funds while
starving high-speed rail. (In fact,
the initial high-speed rail segment
would wipe out the rainy-day fund,
nix paying down the deficit and dig
into the general fund ... but whos
counting?) Sort of having their cake
and eating it too.
If anyone claims to be in favor of
high-speed rail, they should at least
have the courage to admit no one in
the state is planning a system that
meets the voter-passed law. Guess
their courage stops when the gover-
nor offers them other peoples
money.

F
acebook is an extraordinary
tool, but its pitfalls have
become increasingly appar-
ent. Users personal information,
interests and habits are all fair game
for the company, which has little
compunction about analyzing the data
and selling them to advertisers. Now
Facebook has gone beyond capital-
ism and into creepy. For a week in
2012, it seems, the company manipu-
lated users news feeds as part of a
psychology experiment to see
whether happier or sadder content led
users to write happier or sadder posts.
The result? Facebook appears to have
altered peoples emotional states
without their awareness.
This was wrong on multiple levels.
It was unethical for Facebook to con-
duct a psychological experiment
without users informed consent. And
it was especially wrong to do so in a
way that played with the emotions of
its users. Thats dangerous territory.
Facebook, which employs a secret
algorithm to determine what users see
on their news feeds, conducted its
research by altering the feeds of some
700,000 users, increasing or decreas-
ing the number of positive and
negative messages they saw to
study the emotional contagion of
social networking. The company,
together with two academic
researchers, published the results this
month in the Proceedings of the
National Academy of Sciences. In the
study, Facebook asserted that users
had given informed consent, which is
standard protocol in psychological
research, when they agreed to the
companys terms of service, which
caution that users data can be mined
for analysis and research. But thats
disingenuous. Its hard to believe that
users who took the time to read
Facebooks 13,000-word service
agreements would have understood
they were signing on to be lab rats.
In response to the outrage, the
Facebook researcher who designed the
study apologized for any anxiety it
caused. He added that the company
will seek to improve its internal
review practices for future research.
Certainly Facebook needs to revisit
its policies to ensure that its users are
not unwilling participants in psycho-
logical research. If this research is so
valuable, the company should seek
true informed consent.
But Facebook also needs to address
its cavalier attitude toward its users.
This latest controversy sends a trou-
bling message to users that their per-
sonal information, their online activ-
ities and now even their feelings are
all data points to be analyzed and
manipulated according to the whims

What we celebrate today
H
appy Independence Day, or the Fourth of July.
Today, we celebrate the 238 years since the
Declaration of Independence was adopted by
the 13 colonies, which became the United States of
America.
The American experiment of democracy is alive and
well despite recent notions of its struggle. Not only
has the road since our Founding Fathers penned their
signatures to that document been long and involved,
so too was the road to get there.
We sometimes forget the origins of our democracy
and how incredible it was to establish a new nation on
that ideal.
Its root, of course, it the Magna Carta, which in
1215 was the first
document to wrest
power away from the
king of England. It
established English
Common Law, which
essentially stated that
no free man could be
punished except for
through the law of the
land established by
the Magna Carta. It
removed the arbitrary
nature of the kings
previous rule.
Sometimes unevenly
applied, it was by no
means a perfect docu-
ment.
That concept was
further explored
through the age of enlightenment in the late 17th cen-
tury, which placed further emphasis on science over
tradition. This movement spawned new ideas that
spread over Europe.
Around the same time, Thomas Hobbes, through his
book Leviathan, helped to establish the social con-
tract theory which outlined the legitimacy of the state
over the individual. Though it has been touted as the
mechanism of establishing a strong central state to
avoid the toils of war, it also outlines that the state of
nature without government would be unlivable thus cre-
ating the need for a social contract of a shared govern-
ment. Through this social contract, we all give up
some rights for a shared protection. Though he was
sometimes discounted as one who believed in the
absolute power of a monarchy, he set the stage for the
consideration of a governments role in the lives of its
people.
Likewise, John Locke helped establish liberalism, a
political philosophy rooted in the ideas of liberty and
equality, that was itself rooted in classical republican-
ism, or the public thing. Through liberalism, Locke
helped establish the idea of rejecting the divine rights
of kings which led to revolutions such as the American
Revolution, which is what in essence we celebrate
today.
Its most famous line is: We hold these truths to be
self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they
are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable
Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pur-
suit of Happiness.
There are other lines throughout history with equal
weight, but this one holds both promise and practicali-
t y. It acts as a mission statement for the collection of
our ideals regardless of our follies when we put those
ideals into practice.
We celebrate the day with fireworks, song, parades
and other pomp. And yes, for some it only means fly-
ing the flag and wearing certain clothing. And yes, it
is for some a hollow celebration of nationalism for a
nation itself plagued with troubles. But this declara-
tion that we remember today and to which we pay trib-
ute is a culmination of philosophy and ideals that were
rooted in humanitys desire for individuality, freedom
and liberty. It took us hundreds of years for the philos-
ophy to gain enough traction for our Founding Fathers
to put pen to paper and break free from the monarchy
that ruled us. And in the 238 years since, we have
fought and struggled and believed and evolved. The
American experiment is a great one, and it too is con-
stantly evolving. So today, we celebrate this declara-
tion of those who believed it would be better to be
tried for treason if they failed than remain under a
monarchs rule. Today, we celebrate our independence
and the events and ideas that led to it and the people
who brought us here.

NEWYORK The Dow Jones indus-
trial average topped 17,000 for the
rst time Thursday, another in a string
of records for the index that has lifted
portfolios in a ve-year bull market
for stocks.
The gain pushed the 118-year-old
Dow, the oldest gauge for tracking
stock prices, past its rst 1,000-point
milestone this year.
The record came after another day of
good news for the economy: The gov-
ernment reported surprisingly robust
job gains in June, underscoring a
recent trend of stronger hiring and
healthy manufacturing.
The Dows rise this year has been
built on tiny gains, barely noticeable
day by day, a stark contrast to last
years bigger moves that drove the
index up 27 percent. Thursday fol-
lowed the recent script. The index rose
from the start of trading, but ended the
day just half of percentage point high-
er. Trading was also extremely light.
The market closed early ahead of the
Fourth of July holiday.
Investors also pushed the Standard &
Poors 500 index within striking
range of its round-number milestone
just 15 points from 2,000.
Right now the story is onward and
upward, said Neil Massa, senior trader
at John Hancock Asset Management.
On Thursday, the government report-
ed that U.S. employers added 288,000
workers to their payrolls in June and
the unemployment rate fell to 6.1 per-
cent. The U.S. economy is now creat-
ing around 231,000 jobs each month
in 2014, compared to roughly
194,000 a month last year.
It topped even some of the most
optimistic of forecasts, Massa said.
The jobs report is the latest piece of
data to show the economy continues to
improve steadily. On Wednesday, pay-
roll processor ADP said private busi-
nesses added 281,000 jobs in June, up
from 179,000 in May. Also this week,
the Institute for Supply Management
said the U.S. manufacturing expanded
for the 13th consecutive month.
Also helping stocks are solid corpo-
rate earnings and continued support
from central banks. That has pushed
prices higher despite a harsh U.S. win-
ter and worries about fighting in
Ukraine and Iraq.
The Dow rose 92.02 points to nish
at 17,068.26. The S&P 500 closed up
10.82 points, or 0.6 percent, to
1,985.44 and the Nasdaq composite
gained 28.19 points, or 0.6 percent,
to 4,485.93.
While the Dows passing of 17,000
is notable, most Wall Street profes-
sionals dont focus on it. The vast
majority of mutual funds and investors
use the broader S&P 500 as their
benchmark for how they are perform-
ing.
The Dow has lagged behind the rest
of the stock market this year. The
index is up 3 percent compared with
the S&P 500s rise of 7.4 percent.
That said, investors should be feel-
ing good about Dow 17,000, Scott
Wren, a senior equity strategist with
Wells Fargo Advisors, wrote in a note
to investors. The stock market has
more than recovered from levels seen
during the nancial crisis more than
ve years ago. Slow and steady can win
the race; and it has.
The Dow has climbed more than
10,500 points since its Great
Recession low of 6,547.05 on March
9, 2009.
Among individual stocks, the pet
supply chain PetSmart rose the most
in the S&P 500 on Thursday. PetSmart
gained $7.48, or 13 percent, to
$67.28 after the activist investor rm
Jana Partners disclosed a 9.9 percent
stake in the company.
Investors sold bonds after the strong
jobs report. The yield on the 10-year
Treasury note rose to 2.64 percent
from 2.63 percent late Wednesday.
Bond yields rise when prices fall.

WASHINGTON The U.S. trade decit
fell in May as U.S. exports hit an all-time
high, helped by a jump in exports of petro-
leum products. Imports dipped slightly.
The trade decit narrowed 5.6 percent in
May to $44.4 billion after hitting a two-
year high of $47 billion in April, the
Commerce Department reported Thursday.
Exports of goods and services rose 1 per-
cent to a record $195.5 billion in May
while imports fell a slight 0.3 percent to
$239.8 billion.
A lower trade decit boosts overall eco-
nomic growth when it shows U.S. compa-
nies are earning more in their overseas
sales. Economists are looking for a smaller
trade decit in the April-June quarter which
will mean less of a drag on overall growth
than in the rst quarter, when the economy
shrank at an annual rate of 2.9 percent.
Paul Dales, senior U.S. economist at
Capital Economics, said he looked for the
trade decit to be just about half of the 1.5
percentage point drag it represented in the
rst quarter.
Many analysts are looking for overall
growth to rebound to a healthy rate between
3 percent and 3.5 percent in the second quar-
ter.
In 2013, the trade decit declined 11. 3
percent to $476.4 billion. That reected in
part a boom in U.S. energy production that
cut into Americas dependence on foreign
oil while boosting U.S. petroleum exports
to a record high.
The larger trade gap in the rst three
months of this year, compared to the fourth
quarter, shaved 1.5 percentage points from
growth. That was a big factor in helping to
push the economy into reverse. In addition
to a higher trade decit, the economy was
held back by severe winter which dampened
consumer spending.
In May, the U.S. trade decit with China
rose 5.4 percent to $28.8 billion. Through
the rst ve months of this year, Americas
decit with China is running 3.2 percent
ahead of last years record pace.
The rise in exports reected record sales
of U.S.-made autos and auto parts and an
11.3 percent jump in exports of U.S. petro-
leum products. The rise in U.S. production
has helped lower the need for imported oil,
which dropped by 5 percent in May to
$28.3 billion, the lowest monthly import
total since November 2010.
Total U.S. exports to Canada were the
highest on record while imports from
Canada were the highest since July 2008,
leaving a trade deficit of $2.8 billion with
Canada. America had a record $2.7 billion
trade deficit with South Korea in May as
imports from that country hit a record
hi gh.

DETROIT Subaru is recalling more than
660,000 cars and SUVs because the brake
lines can rust and leak uid, and that can
mean it will take longer to stop the vehi-
cles.
For about half the vehicles, its the second
recall for the same problem.
Affected are 2005 through 2009 Legacy
and Outback, the 2008 through 2014
Impreza and the 2009 through 2013
Forester.
It covers vehicles sold or registered in
Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana,
Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts,
Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New
Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio,
Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, West
Virginia, Wisconsin and Washington, D.C.,
where salt is used to clear roads in the win-
ter.
The company says in documents posted
Thursday by the U.S. National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration that salty
water can splash onto the brake lines
through a gap in the fuel tank protector,
causing rust. If they leak uid, it could take
longer to stop the car and increase the risk
of a crash.
Journal expresses
concern over Facebook study
SAN FRANCISCO The scientic jour-
nal that published a study by Facebook and
two U.S. universities examining peoples
online mood swings regrets how the social
experiment was handled.
In a note of contrition, the Proceedings of
the National Academy of Sciences concluded
that the decision to manipulate the content
appearing on the Facebook pages of about
700,000 people without their prior consent
may have violated some principles of aca-
demic research.

BRUSSELS Googles removal of some
search results in Europe is drawing accusa-
tions of press censorship.The U.S. rm has
to comply with a strict privacy ruling made
in May by the European Unions top court
that enables citizens to ask for the removal
of embarrassing personal information that
pops up on a search of their names.
At least three British media, including the
Guardian newspaper and public broadcaster
BBC, said they have been notied by Google
that links to some of their articles were
removed from search results in Europe.
The Guardian said six articles have been
removed in what the newspaper calls a chal-
lenge to press freedom. The BBC said one
critical blog entry by its economics editor
was removed, while the Mail Online saw four
articles hit. It is the equivalent of going into
libraries and burning books you dont like,
Mail Online publisher Martin Clarke said.
BBC Economics Editor Robert Peston said
Wednesday the removal of his 2007 blog
post, which was critical of Merrill Lynchs
then-CEO Stan ONeal, means to all intents
and purposes the article has been removed
from the public record, given that Google is
the route to information and stories for most
people.

Will the lights go
up in the district?
PHOTO ILLUSTRATION ERIK OEVERNDIEK
There is a new push to put lights on the elds on the ve elds in the SanMateo Union High School District which currently do not have them.
This is what lights on the eld at Hillsdale could look like.
SAN FRANCISCO Jhonny Peralta hit a
two-run homer among his two hits and Carlos
Martinez earned his second win as a starter,
and the St. Louis Cardinals beat the reeling
San Francisco Giants 7-2 on Thursday.
Martinez (2-3) also drove in a run for the
Cardinals, who won their second straight after
losing three in a row. Martinez allowed a run
and ve hits in ve innings. He walked one
and struck out six.
Madison Bumgarner (9-6) fell to 0-3 over
his past four home starts after allowing ve
runs four earned and six hits over ve
innings. He walked three and struck out six.
Bumgarner also drove in a run for the
Giants, who have lost 17 of 22 and fell out of
rst place in the NLWest.
Matt Carpenter continued ripping Giants
pitching, extending his hitting streak against
them to 11 games with a 2-for-4 effort. He has
a .519 (28 for 54) career average against the
Giants and has hit safely in 18 of his 20
games, including the postseason, against
them.

NEWYORK All-Stars from all over the
world are ticketed for the Twin Cities, where
hometown favorite Joe Mauer will be conspic-
uously absent from the lineup.
Still new to the majors, Masahiro Tanaka,
Jose Abreu and Yasiel Puig are just a few of the
foreign-born players almost certain to get
selected for the July 15 showcase in
Minnesota. All-Star rosters will be announced
Sunday night, and this years game at Target
Field gures to have a distinctive internation-
al avor.
I think it tells you something about how
hard theyve worked outside of our game to get
to this point, New York Yankees manager Joe
Girardi said.
I think it tells you the level of baseball
around the world and how good it is and the
competition and how hungry they are, in a
sense, to be one of the best. Not just being
happy with maybe signing a big deal and say-
ing, thats enough. They want to continue to
play and make a name for themselves. So its
pretty special what these guys have done.
Yu Darvish (Japan), Koji Uehara (Japan),
Yoenis Cespedes (Cuba) and Julio Teheran
(Colombia) also have impressive stats, put-
ting them in position to join familiar stars
such as Miguel Cabrera (Venezuela) and
Robinson Cano (Dominican Republic) from
more common talent pools outside the United
States.

A number of coaches and athletic direc-
tors, along with parent groups, are resur-
recting the call for eld lights at the ve
high schools in the San Mateo Union High
School District that currently do not have
them at their facilities.
Aragon, Capuchino, Hillsdale, Mills and
San Mateo high schools do not have lights
on their fields. Burlingame is the only
school in the district with such facilities.
We are the last school district with less
than 50 percent of lights on our elds, said
Jeff Scheller, football coach and athletic
director at San Mateo High, who is spear-
heading the effort. Our school district is
very proud of the stuff they x up. The thing
facilities are missing are lights.
Scheller, along with Aragon football
coach and athletic director Steve Sell and
Hillsdale football coach Mike Parodi, are
making serious efforts to get the situation
remedied. But all three are quick to point out
this does not have anything to do with foot-
ball. In fact, they say the sports most
impacted are the soccer teams and spring
sports such as lacrosse. Without lights,
sports such as soccer are at a disadvantage
because they are limited by day-time hours,
which are decreased during the winter
months. The Aragon football team, for
example, usually makes the playoffs and are
practicing until late November. That limits
the amount of time soccer teams have to
practice.
If you compare the number of hours a
soccer program with lights get, how many
hours they get to practice prior to their rst
game, compared to a school like ours, its
about 10 to 1, Sell said. Our schools,
prior to the rst (soccer) game, might get a
total of 10 hours before the rst game.
Burlingame will have 10 hours a week.
The issue, however, is not about practice
time. The main thrust of the push for lights
has to do with classroom time. Game times

Vision 18 Gold entered Tuesdays nal
round of the USAV Girls Volleyball Junior
Nationals knowing its medal hopes had
been dashed.
The Los Gatos-based
club team soldiered
through the silver-round
nals, the second tier of
four teams, on the nal
day of competition at the
Minneapolis Convention
Center to nish seventh
in the nation in the 18
Open tourney. And the
team almost had to go
without one of its top
players Christine Alftin.
Alftin the volleyball superstar who
recently graduated from Woodside, and as a
senior captured Peninsula Athletic League
Bay Division Player of the Year honors
awoke Monday prior to the third day of the
four-day event with tonsillitis. She missed
just one match to ll a prescription, howev-
er, and rejoined the team for the start of sec-
ond-round play.
With Alftin back on the court, Vision won
its rst seminal matchup before dropping
two straight to nish its season.
She played great, Vision head coach
Jason Manseld said. So, I was really proud
of her for staying up and overcoming adver-
sity. Everyone played well, but she kind of
gave us the shot in the arm we needed.
Through all its success on the club volley-
ball circuit in recent years, Visions main
nemesis has proven to be Minnesotas
Northern Lights.
Since last years Junior Nationals, also in
Northern Lights backyard of Minneapolis,
the volleyball powerhouse has held Vision
in check. Northern Lights got the better of
Vision last season as Vision failed to
advance past pool play. When the two teams
met earlier this year at the Denver qualier
in March, Northern Lights again prevailed
to take the gold medal, while Vision settled
for silver.

FORTALEZA, Brazil Brazil striker
Neymar and Colombia playmaker James
Rodriguez have led their teams to the World
Cup quarternals, dominating the attention
and the scoring.
The 22-year-old stars will go head-to-head
when Brazil plays Colombia on Friday, when
only one will get the chance to continue his
run at the tournament.
Wearing the No. 10 jerseys, both have lived
up to expectations so far, enough to be includ-
ed in discussions about the tournaments best
players along with established stars such as
Lionel Messi and Arjen Robben.
Neymar has been decisive for Brazil, scoring
four goals in four matches. Rodriguez has been
crucial for Colombia with his tournament-lead-
ing ve goals and creativity in attack.
I already knew that James was a great play-
er, Neymar said. And
now he has been showing
his talent at the World
Cup.
Rodriguez has been one
of the tournaments sensa-
tions so far and has helped
Colombia get over the
absence of star striker
Radamel Falcao, who
missed the tournament
because of a knee injury.
It didnt take long for Rodriguez to become
the focal point of a Colombia team that won
all of its four matches seemingly without any
real difculty.
Its not easy to achieve what Ive done,
but my view is that when you have a dream
and you really pursue it and picture things
like this happening, then it can become a
reality, Rodriguez told FIFA.com. If you
want something and you work hard for it,
then it can happen.
The Monaco player
scored in each match,
including two against
Uruguay in the second
round, and has been voted
player of the match three
times. One of the goals
against Uruguay is already
considered one of the best
of the tournament so far.
He chested the ball and
quickly turned to re a powerful shot over the
goalkeeper from the top of the penalty area.
Rodriguez had already scored a stunning goal
against Japan in the group stage, icking the
ball over the goalkeeper after getting past a
defender with a nifty move inside the box.
James is outstanding despite also being
young, Neymar said. He has been showing
that he is a great player and needs to be con-
gratulated for the tournament that he has been
having. But I hope his run ends now and that
Brazil advances.
The Brazilian forward came to the tourna-
ment amid a lot more hype than Rodriguez,
already knowing that he was carrying the
responsibility of leading his team to the title
on home soil.
Neymar scored twice in the difcult 3-1
opening win over Croatia, then added two
more in the 4-1 rout of Cameroon in the group
stage. The Barcelona star also showed his cool
by calmly converting his penalty in the tense
shootout against Chile in the second round.
I dont know who will play better, I just
hope that Brazil comes out on top, Neymar
said, referring to his duel with Rodriguez. Ive
already said before the World Cup started that I
dont care about being the best player or the
top scorer, all I want is to win the title. If I
dont play well but Brazil wins, Ill still be
happy.

OAKLAND Sonny Grays fastball
wasnt as sharp as it usually is, and the
Oakland Athletics young pitcher even
had a quirky replay go against him.
A rediscovered curveball, stellar
defense behind him and timely hitting
on offense made it all a moot point.
Gray allowed four hits over seven
innings to bounce back from his worst
start of the season and the As beat the
Toronto Blue Jays 4-1 on Thursday night.
Gray (8-3) wasand got some help from
Oaklands defense which turned three
double plays, including one in the
eighth after Josh Tholes leadoff single.
Jose Reyes hit a y out to deep right
and Oaklands Brandon Moss made a
strong throw back to rst baseman
Nate Freiman, who tagged out Thole
trying to get back to the bag.
Gray might have been in line for a
shutout were it not for an odd replay in
the second inning.
After Toronto loaded the bases against
Gray with one out, Anthony Gose hit a
grounder to Freiman. Freiman appeared
to tag Munenori Kawasaki as he ran for
second base, but umpire Vic Carapazza
ruled Freiman missed the tag and
Kawasaki was safe.
Freiman then threw to catcher Stephen
Vogt, who stepped on home plate for a
forceout with Edwin Encarnacion, the
runner on third, approaching.
Toronto manager John Gibbons
requested the review, arguing that
Kawasaki was out and that Encarnacion
should be allowed to score because there
wouldve been no force at the plate.
The call was overturned and the Blue
Jays were given a 1-0 lead.
We cant put runners back, crew chief
Bill Miller said. We have to go with
what happened on the eld, and what
happened on the eld was (Vogt) tagged
home plate but he did not tag the runner.
Unfortunately that was in direct relation
to the call on the eld at rst base.
The As came back though. Freiman
doubled in Brandon Moss in the bottom
of the inning, and Vogt scored on a
passed ball to put the As up 2-1.
Craig Gentry singled off Toronto starter
R.A. Dickey (6-8) in the eighth and scored
on John Jasos double. Alberto
Callaspos sacrice y made it 4-1.
Gray leads As
past Blue Jays
As finalize 10-year deal to remain at Coliseum
OAKLAND The Oakland Athletics have nalized an
agreement on a 10-year extension to play at the Coliseum
through the 2024 season.
The deal was approved Thursday by the Oakland-Alameda
County Coliseum Authority. The deal still needs to be for-
mally approved by the Oakland City Council and Alameda
County Board of Supervisors later this month.
The deal settles all outstanding issues between the two
sides, including a dispute of past rent owed by the As. The
As will spend more than $10 million on a new scoreboard
and the Coliseum Authority will pay for any structural
improvements that will be in place by opening day 2015.
The rundown Coliseum has had multiple sewage problems
in the past year and an outage affecting the outeld lights
on June 14.

Menlo Park Open 7 Days
would have chosen to play in this season, it
would have been the Northern Lights
rematch when the teams met in the nal
game of pool play Monday.
Fate, however, had other ideas.
Vision had posted a 5-1 record through
two days of pool play Saturday and Sunday.
But Monday at 4 a.m., Alftin awoke with a
sore throat. She said she camped out in the
bathroom of her hotel room as not to wake
up the teammates with whom she was room-
i ng.
Fortunately for Alftin, the father of
Vision teammate Lizzie Tardieu is a doctor,
and was in Minneapolis to watch the tourna-
ment. According to Alftin, he diagnosed her
with tonsillitis and wrote her a prescrip-
tion. She missed just one match as a result
the rematch with Northern Lights.
In the grand scheme of pool play, the
match was incidental. Vision had already
qualied for seminals. And after Northern
Lights downed Vision in straight sets,
Alftin rejoined the team for the rst semi-
nal match against Texas Advantage later
that morning.
Vision downed Texas Advantage in
straight sets, 26-24, 25-20.
Every point was a struggle because I
couldnt breathe, Alftin said. There were
so many people watching, so that was a lot
of pressure on us. Im pretty sure there were
ve or six times where I actually stopped to
untie and retie my shoe to buy time.
It would be the last victory of Visions
season, as the team was knocked out of
medal contention in a grueling match with
Indianas Circle City to complete Monday
play. Circle City triumphed 25-17, 27-29,
15-10.
It was a really great match, Alftin said.
I wouldnt say we lost the match. I would
say we got beat because they were a lot bet-
ter than us. They were so talented. That
was the match to get a medal so we were all
really, really bummed.
Circle City qualied for the gold-round
nals to compete for a medal and went on to
share third place with South Carolinas A5.
A pair of Southern California teams swept
the top two spots as San Diegos Wayne
Area Volleyball Enthusiasts took second
and San Diegos Coast took rst.
We had a great shot to win the whole
thing and we almost beat the eventual cham-
pion on Day 1, Manseld said. We were
denitely right there to do that. We didnt
nish the way we wanted to but overall it
was a great year.
Vision matched up with the eventual
champs in the rst day of pool play, with
Coast prevailing 28-26, 25-21.
We had a couple game points and just
couldnt close it out, Manseld said.
Alftin said she had one of those game
points in her sights and just missed long.
I actually hit it out because the nerves
got the best of me and I swung too hard and
it went long, Alftin said. [The point] was
totally there and I let it go.
Otherwise, Vision was awless through
the first two days of pool play. Alftin
brought her signature service prowess to the
line in Mondays opener, and along with
service runs from Tardieu and Maddy Dilfer
downed Metro American Volleyball Club of
Washington D.C., 25-13, 25-16. In the sec-
ond game against Southern Californias
Laguna Beach, Vision won convincingly,
25-7, 25-23.
Vision swept its three Sunday games,
downing Texas Skyline, 25-23, 25-14;
Texas Arlington Courts Elite 25-23, 25-
19; and Washington states Kent Juniors,
25-16, 26-28, 18-16.
Alftin won bronze two years ago with the
Vision 17 squad. And as she prepares to
move into the Cal dorms this weekend as
she embarks on a promising collegiate
career, she expressed pride in the closing of
her Vision career.
Anything top eight in the nation is
incredible, she said. This team, we were
kind of raw in the beginning. And
[Manselds] coaching was so incredible
and we worked hard every day at every prac-
tice and we got so much better.
Visions youngest player, 16-year-old
Ronicka Stone, who recently completed her
sophomore year at Valley Christian, was
named to the All-Tournament team. Vision
graduates eight players from this years
squad, including Alftin and Menlo grad
Maddie Huber, who will attend Princeton in
the fall.
All eight of them have a shot to con-
tribute to their teams next year, Manseld
said. Its rare that I say that about an entire
group of seniors.
COUTESY OF JENINE ALFTIN
Christine Alftin nished her career with Vision volleyball by helping the 18 Gold squad take
seventh place at the Junior Nationals in Minneapolis this week.

and most recently was the top assistant on
Doc Rivers staff with the Los Angeles
Clippers.
Adams has been an NBA assistant for 20
seasons after coaching at Fresno State and
Fresno Pacic. Walton spent 10 seasons in
the NBA after being drafted out of Arizona,
where Kerr also played.

pushed to 4 p.m. in most cases to limit the
amount of class time student-athletes have
to miss. Without lights, schools have to
move start times up to 3 p.m. to ensure both
varsity and frosh-soph teams can finish
their games before darkness falls. To do
that, players have to miss anywhere from
one to two periods of class time.
As an athletic director, its frustrating.
The league has done everything it can to
minimize the amount of time kids miss
class, Sell said.
Said Scheller: Our kids miss more class
time because of not having lights.
Because the schools are on such small
plots of land, there is no place to install
more eld space. The community would also
benet because of the communitys usage of
the facilities after school hours. As it
stands, the elds and tracks at the ve light-
less schools close the track at dusk.
We cant expand the amount of field
space we have, Sell said. Enrollment is
increasing, high-density housing is going
up. The only way to increase usage of the
elds is to expand hours.
The effort stalled over a decade ago
There was a movement by San Mateo
about 12 years to install lights on the eld,
but that progress kind of died on the vine
because the people who were pushing the
hardest for the change, all left the school or
the district.
We had tremendous support from
(SMUHSD superintendent) Tom Mohr and
(then-San Mateo principal) Jackie
McAvoy, said Steven Kryger, currently a
teacher and athletic director at Menlo-
Atherton, who was a teacher and AD at San
Mateo from 2001 to 2008.
Kryger said they had lined up a tremendous
amount of money through fundraising,
donations and grants for eld improvements
at San Mateo, with the lighting being the
last piece of the puzzle after installing a new
articial turf eld and all-weather track.
But when all three key members of the
movement moved on to different positions,
the drive for lights died.
We knew this would take a couple of
years, Kryger said. I think (the effort) lost
a little bit of momentum when Tom Mohr
left, when Jackie left, I left. Some of the
momentum was lost. For a lot of reasons, it
kind of lost steam.
Picking up the baton
Now, however, the effort is back on track
and those pushing for lights are slowly
chugging away.
Proponents appear to have some board of
trustee members on their side for installing
lights as well.
Im a total proponent of lights, said
Linda Lees Dwyer, president of the board of
trustees. I grew up in the Midwest. I was in
the marching band. Im a huge proponent of
school sports and I would like to see the
lights. I would like the surrounding commu-
nity to understand its a huge advantage for
them. I see them as a great public asset.
Lees Dwyer did say, however, there hasnt
been a lot of formal talks surrounding the
issue and admitted there are other projects
the board of trustees would like to do before
getting into serious talks about installing
lights on district elds.
The lights would never be on top of the
list because of things that need to be done to
schools to keep them safe and in good con-
dition, Lees Dwyer said.
Proponents went before the board of
trustees in February and while the board
appeared to be agreement that the proposal
should be looked at, they wanted more
information.
What we said was we wanted to them to
try to engage the surrounding communities
to make sure they didnt oppose it, Lees
Dwyer said. We would then have to see
where we could nd the funds.
Liz McManus, head of the districts facili-
ties, said the proposal is still in the research
mode and money to fund the project still
needs to be found.
Afunding stream still hasnt been identi-
ed yet, McManus said.
A lot of the legwork done
Supporters of the effort have already done
a lot of the leg work. All three coaches said
they have talked with several representa-
tives of communities surrounding their
respective schools and all three said there
appears to be a lot of support.
Weve met with homeowners associa-
tions, with the city of San Mateo. They all
sounded extremely supportive, Parodi said.
We want them to be informed.
Scheller said San Mateo High had a bit of
an unintentional stress test last football
season when a football game under portable
lights coincided with the opening of the
schools newly renovated performing arts
center.
We got no complaints about anything,
Scheller said. If [opponents] wanted to stir
things up, that would have been a perfect
time.
Kryger said when he was with San Mateo,
he experienced the same amount of support
from the surrounding community.
The community was tremendously sup-
portive, Kryger said. We took a communi-
ty group around to different venues (in the
county with lighted elds) to the atmos-
phere and technology improvements. After
that night, they were tremendously support-
ive.
Parodi said the advent of new lighting
technology makes todays eld lights less
intrusive to the surrounding community.
The big misconception is the lights will
ood this 12-mile radius, Parodi said. The
technology is so high-tech now. Theres
not going to be too much spillover.
Parodi has also worked on the numbers to
see how much it would cost to renovate all
ve elds. His rough numbers say it will
cost the district approximately $2 million.
Athletics complements academics
But the benets far outweigh the cost in
Parodis opinion.
I may be biased because Im a sports per-
son, but the changes in kids who become
involved in athletics (is tremendous). Its
fun to see them apply the skills from sports
to life. I get red up when people say sports
arent important. There are always going to
be a handful of people who are against
everything. This is not about a now deci-
sion, this is something that will be there
forever, that will benefit generations to
come.
While there is no imminent decision on
installing lights at the ve high schools,
the prevailing feeling is it will get done in
the next few years.
I think theres a really good chance it
happens within the next ve years. I think
the district cares about kids missing too
much class, Sell said. Its guaranteed to
benet. This is guaranteed to help kids aca-
demically, guaranteed to help with school
spirit.
I dont know how you put a price tag on
community and school spirit. Volumes of
research will show how important sports are
to the development of kids.
LIGHTS
And some of these players, such as Tanaka
(Japan) and Abreu (Cuba), have only been
here for a matter of months.
Its not surprising that some of these
guys are able to play at such a high level
right when they come over here, because
theyre just that good, said Tampa Bays
Ben Zobrist, a two-time All-Star.
You think of a rookie generally as a
young kid that is getting his rst experience
on a very tough stage, and these guys have
already played on high international stages
even if it wasnt the major leagues. And
theyre very polished players.
Derek Jeter is on track for one last trip in
his nal season; the Yankees captain led
American League shortstops in fan ballot-
ing when the latest update was released this
week.
But one big name now sure to be missing
is Mauer, the three-time batting champion
from St. Paul, Minnesota.
Tabbed as an All-Star ambassador to help
Major League Baseball promote the game,
Mauer was placed on the 15-day disabled list
Wednesday with a strained muscle on his
right side. And while its an unfortunate
injury for the Twins, it does save MLB and
American League manager John Farrell from
the Boston Red Sox the trouble of dealing
with a delicate situation.
Despite a recent hitting streak, Mauer is
having his worst season at the plate. And
since he moved from catcher to rst base
this year to protect his health, he now plays
the same position as several of the ALs best
hitters.
To put him on the roster only because the
game is in Minneapolis would have been
awkward and it would have cost some
other deserving player a spot.
However, it also would have felt strange
for the $184 million face of the Twins to be
left out of the festivities. Especially for
Minnesota fans.
Mauers injury eliminates all that. The
six-time All-Star and 2009 ALMVPcan play
some sort of role in the pregame ceremonies
and soak in a well-earned ovation without it
feeling forced.
Its tough to describe, Mauer said. I
denitely wanted to be a part of this as a
player, but I guess thats out of the question
now.
Other choices remain difcult, even for
fans and players who vote.

fellow Czech left-hander Lucie
Safarova 7-6 (6), 6-1.
Bouchard lost in the seminals at

Australian Open and French Open.
Shes projected to rise to No. 7
the highest ranking for a Canadian

ning the championship. Bouchard
would also be the youngest Grand
Slam champion since 19-year-old
Maria Sharapova won the 2006 U.S.

Ive put in a lot of hard work and
its been kind of years in the making
to me, Bouchard said. So I believe
in myself and I expect good results.
Sports brief
Joe Panik
Marco Scutaro
By Jocelyn Noveck
Meet Tammy. Boy, is she a mess.
Angry, profane and aggressive,
then suddenly shy and sweet.
Sometimes shes funny, sometimes
totally not. She cant gure out
what she wants to do or be, or
where to go. She has loads of peo-
ple around her, yet cant gure out
what to do with them. This ones in
desperate need of outside help.
And you thought we were talking
about Tammy, the character
played by lovable Melissa
McCarthy in her rst venture as
producer, star and co-writer with
husband Ben Falcone. Well, sure.
But really were talking about
Tammy the movie, about which
all of the above descriptions are
also true.
Especially the mess part. Oy.
Other recent comedies have been
described as elongated Saturday
Night Live skits, but its especial-
ly apt here, and not just because
McCarthy and Falcone, who also
directs, are veteran improv per-
formers. Exaggerated characters,
some wacky side plots, a couple of
famous faces sprinkled in, and
youre off. Some of its good, some
terrible, but you keep it all, cause,
hey, why not? Its a comedy sketch.
Only this is a much anticipated,
heavily promoted feature-length
lm, and as such, it can only be
deemed an unfortunate, though
ambitious and intermittently enjoy-
able, misfire for McCarthy, so
adorably entertaining in better
movies like Bridesmaids and
The Heat.
Part of the problem is miscasting.
Tammy is full of name actors:
Susan Sarandon, Allison Janney,
Toni Collette, Kathy Bates, Sandra
Oh, Dan Akyroyd. Most are mis-
used. (Bates is a happy exception.)
Tammy misses funny bone
By Jake Coyle
NEW YORK Theres the
Mooch, says Ben Falcone brightly
as his wife, Melissa McCarthy,
enters the room.
Its a term of endearment, a long-
used nickname between the two
who have been paired in love and
comedy since they were aspiring
performers at the Groundlings, the
Los Angeles improv school. Their
long partnership reaches a profes-
sional crescendo Friday with the
release of Tammy, a road trip
comedy they wrote together that
McCarthy stars in and Falcone
directs.
McCarthy and Falcone, who mar-
ried in 2005 and have two daugh-
ters, are incredibly sweet together
rifng easily and warmly com-
plimenting each other but you
wouldnt know their marital har-
mony from their movies. Their on-
screen relationship is far more
combustible.
Falcone was the undercover air
marshal in McCarthys breakout,
Bridesmaids, and he played
McCarthys clingy former lover in
The Heat. In Tammy, she hurls
put-downs and ketchup packets at
him after Falcone, playing her boss,
res her from a fast food joint.
Tammy was born when Falcone
woke up one morning, groggy from
a dream envisioning McCarthy and
her alcoholic grandmother (played
by Susan Sarandon) embarking on
a journey away from their small
Illinois town. After six years of
working on it (and buoyed by
McCarthys now considerable box-

LUMINOUS ESSAYS LIGHT UP THE
CALDWELLGALLERY. The Caldwell Gallery
at 400 County Center in Redwood City pres-
ents Luminous Essays, works by ne art pho-
tographers from the Peninsula Photographic
Arts Guild. The Guild is an organization of
Bay Area photographers dedicated to promot-
ing Fine Art Photography and exploring and

Cheryl Strong. One of Strongs photo-
graphs, Veil, pays homage to one of Strongs
favorite photographers. Strong said: The
back story on this photo is that I have a great
deal of admiration for photographer Imogen
Cunningham, 1883-1976. I was inspired by
a photo Cunningham took of Greta Garbo. I
am passionate about black and white lm
photography there is something magical
about watching an image come to life while
it sloshes around in the chemicals in the
darkroom. This portrait is very special to me
in that it evokes a lot of emotion. It makes
me wonder what truth lies in the depths of
these mesmerizing eyes, hiding safely
behind the veil.
Running currently with Luminous Essays
is a photography exhibit of works by
Frances Freyberg of Menlo Park and Ron
Ritz of Redwood City, located in the
Community Gallery on the lower level of the
400 building at the Community Center. Both

of nature and travel. The adjacent 555 County
Center buildings Rotunda Gallery holds a

WEEKEND JOURNAL
ofce clout), their personal little comedy
(both are from Illinois) is opening in the
heart of summer blockbuster season.
AP: Mel i ssa, you went to col l ege
i n Bens homet own, Carbondal e,
Il l i noi s. Di d you ever meet there?
Fal cone: I knew who she was. She went
through a Goth phase.
McCart hy: I didnt know it but he said
we were at the same parties together - which
I just nd the most bizarre thing. It wasnt
until 10 years later that we met.
Fal cone: After a year of being friends, we
started putting it together. She had blue hair
and clown makeup.
McCart h y: I pr ef er t o say kabuki
whi t e. Cl own has sor t of a nega-
t i ve connot at i on.
AP: Did you have similar upbring-
i ngs ?
Fal cone: She was probably more popu-
lar than me.
McCart hy: I dont know about that.
Fal cone: I denitely think so. I wasnt ,
like, unpopular. (McCarthy starts cackling.
Ben shifts into character.) Listen! Listen! I
was super popular! I storm out of the inter-
view and jump through the glass windows.
AP: So you actually met later i n
Los Angel es?
McCart hy: We met at a Groundlings
class. We immediately were improvising
with each other and immediately gravitat-
ing toward each other, writing-wise. The
rst day, everybodys doing their biggest,
probably most unrealistic, poorly done
characters. And Ben got up there and did this
very strange inmate that sat on a chair qui-
etly. I just thought it was the funniest thing.
I thought: I like that creepy
guy.
AP: Ben, do you remember the rst
time you saw Melissa perform?
Fal cone: It was in that class. ... Her
character kept going to the same Kinkos
and talking to a guy name Todd. She said the
name about forty hundred billion times,
like, Hey Todd. How you doin Todd?
Anyway, Todd, I just need a couple more
copies. And it was obvious she was not
there for copies at all. She was just there to
talk to Todd. It was a super funny and great
character spazzy and fun.
AP: Were you craf t i ng vol at i l e
characters from the start ?
McCart hy: I love to have a character
with a rm belief in their point of view, no
matter what it is. It doesnt always have to
be aggressive. It can be a really shy person
who really wants a cul-de-sac on the end of
her block.
Fal cone: She steals from everybody.
Bits and pieces and then she puts them
inside herself. People that she grew up with
or relatives.
McCart hy: The fun is, if you can justify
it, then it can make sense. I always think in
real life, people do so many strange things.
AP: In Tammy, you thro w
ketchup packets at your real -l i fe hus-
band.
Fal cone: Her suggestion.
McCart hy: You were screaming, My
eyes! because of those corners, which may
have kind of fueled my re. Which is terrible
because in real life, I would never do that. If
anything hurt, I would be like, Oh my god.
Fal cone: I would hope that youd never
be throwing ketchup packets at me in the
rst place.
AP: Given your success together,
these must be good ti mes.
McCart hy: Weve been doing it for 20
years for free, with cheaper wigs. We would
have kept doing it. If the opportunities that
we have now wouldnt have come up, I still
think wed be at the Groundlings doing the
same thing: building crazy costumes and
crazy sets that do or dont work.
Q&A
Most glaring of all: Sarandon plays
Tammys doddering grandmother,
Pearl, with whom Tammy goes on a
female-bonding road trip (yes, obvi-
ous echoes of Thelma and Louise).
Give her credit for trying, but really,
Sarandon as a doddering grandma?
McCarthy is 43. Sarandon is 67, but
we all know she looks great for 50,
maybe 45. They give her a dumpy
pants ensemble, an unattering gray
wig and fake swollen ankles, but we
dont buy it for a minute. Just look at
Sarandons glowing skin here she
should be doing a Dove commercial.
It still might have worked if these
two actresses had the comic chem-
istry (or the script) that made us
laugh at the rowdy McCarthy team-
ing with the uptight Bullock in The
Heat. No heat here, alas.
We rst meet Tammy on, arguably,
the worst day of her life. First, her car
hits a deer. That makes her late for her
job at Topper Jacks burger joint,
where shes promptly fired by her
sadistic boss Keith (Falcone), and
responds by licking all the hamburger
buns.
At home, she nds husband Greg
(Nat Faxon) romancing neighbor
Missi (Toni Collette, criminally
underused). Furious, she runs home to
her mother, Deb (Allison Janney, a
great-looking 54-year-old, and thus
also implausibly cast but whatev-
er.)
Tammy wants to hit the road. Thats
where Pearl comes in. Shes eager to
stave off the nursing home, and has a
huge wad of cash.
Misadventures ensue. Tammy totals
a jet ski. Pearl gets drunk shes a
serious alcoholic, and a diabetic and
ends up having sex in a car with a
randy old guy, while his son (Mark
Duplass, in a sweet performance) and
Tammy watch in disgust. Tammy and
Pearl get in trouble with the law.
Tammy needs bail money for Pearl, so
she robs a Topper Jacks with a paper
bag on her head.
Somehow the two end up and you
knew this was coming at a huge les-
bian July 4th party! The hosts are
Pearls friend Lenore, played by the
terric Bates, and girlfriend Susanne
(Sandra Oh, barely used at all.) This is
where things go seriously wrong
between Pearl and Tammy.
It all comes hurtling oddly, with
weird rhythm and pacing, to an equally
odd ending. At least Tammy the
character, not the movie seems to
know a little more about where shes
going.
Us? Were still scratching our heads.
Tammy, a Warner Bros. release, is
rated R by the Motion Picture
Association of America for language,
including sexual references. Running
time: 96 minutes. Two stars out of four.

y or explode. Fountains, sparklers,
wheels, smoke and snake items,
strobes, ground spinners, novelty re-
works that do not travel, snappers and
caps are usually considered safe.
We all share a concern for re safety
under these conditions, said Don
Revell, spokesperson for TNT
Fireworks. I think that historically
the average consumer and user of state
approved reworks has always acted
responsibly with these products.
The San Bruno Police Department
sent out a letter to reworks patrons
noting that there will be increased
patrols during the week prior to, and
on, July 4. The entire department will
be working on the Fourth of July and it
is taking a zero-tolerance stance on
the use of illegal fireworks, those
which dont have a state re marshal
label, and the misuse of Safe and Sane
reworks. Violators will be ned up to
$1,000.
Safe and Sane reworks can only be
used in San Bruno under the following
conditions: people can only discharge
Safe and Sane reworks between the
hours of noon to 10 p.m. June 28
through July 4 and from noon to mid-
night July 4. Safe and Sane reworks
are prohibited on or over anothers
private property, or within 10 feet of a
residence, dwelling or structure. Safe
and Sane reworks cant be used in
public lots, streets, semi-public or pri-
vate open areas without the written
consent of the owner. Adults must
supervise minors under 18 using Safe
and Sane reworks. All reworks are
prohibited in San Bruno parks and on
school property. To report violators
call 616-7100.
Theres always a high re danger
and always lots of open space in San
Bruno, said Commander Geoff
Caldwell of the San Bruno Police
Department.

perform at the MTV Video Music
Awards on Aug. 24.
MTV announced Wednesday the pop
singer is the rst performer for the

Everything, a day after the VMAs.
Grande was the star of the
Nickelodeon sitcoms Victorious and

SAFETY
The North County Fire Authority,
which Pacica is under, sent out tips
for people to follow when using Safe
and Sane reworks.
1. Inspecting all reworks;
2. Never use damaged or leaking
reworks;
3. Never give reworks to small
children;
4. Store reworks in a cool, dry place;
5. Light only one item at a time;
6.Drop any dudreworks into a pail
of water;
7. Keep spectators at least 10 feet
away and dont point reworks at
anyone;
8.Use reworks in a clear area at least
20 feet away from a house, wood
fence or brush;
9. Light reworks in a large safe area
of dirt,pavement or gravel at least 10
feet square in size;
10.Have a pail of water ready in which
to place used or malfunctioning
reworks; and
11. If someone is injured or a re is
started call 911 immediately.

Savages World comes
full circle with spinoff
By Alicia Rancilio
NEW YORK Ben Savage says that when production
wrapped on Boy Meets World in 2000 after seven seasons,
he and his young co-stars were ready to expand their own
worlds.
I think at that point all the kids on the show were kind of
looking forward to the next step in their lives, the 33-year-
old actor said. Boy Meets World was really our childhood,
and so when it ended, the cast was ready to say, OK, lets see
whats next.
He didnt have a clue that 12 years later Id be sitting at
home and get a phone call saying were starting again.
In Girl Meets World, airing Fridays on the Disney
Channel (8:30 p.m. EDT), Savages character, Cory, is still
married to Danielle Fishels Topanga (they wed in the origi-
nal shows seventh season), and they now have two children.
Fishel is back, along with many of the original crew mem-
bers and writers.
Its kind of like this nostalgic, deja vu thing for me,
Savage said. Every day I get to work ... I see so many of the
same faces that I spent my entire childhood with. ... Its like
youre re-creating your childhood. Not many people get to do
that.

nomic research at the consultancy
CohnReznick. It is both broad and
accelerating.
At least one nagging doubt is damp-
ening the enthusiasm: Can the stepped-
up hiring lead to higher incomes?
Wages have yet to outpace ination for
most workers. Eventually, analysts
say, the falling unemployment rate
should cause pay to rise more sharply.
But no one knows precisely when.
The jobs report did make clear that,
ve years after the recession ofcially
ended, the U.S. economy is showing
more vitality even as major economies
in Europe and Asia continue to strug-
gle.
Last months solid hiring followed
gains of 217,000 jobs in May and
304,000 in April, gures that were
revised upward by a combined 29,000.
Over the past 12 months, the econo-
my has added nearly 2.5 million jobs
an average of 208,000 a month, the
fastest year-over-year pace since 2006.
Economists say the steady U.S. hir-
ing should fuel more purchases of goods
from Asia and Europe and strengthen
those economies at least slightly.
Much of Europe is suffering from high
unemployment. And China is trying to
moderate its economys growth without
slowing it too much.
If we have some momentum going
into the second half of the year, it helps
the world economy because were big
consumers, said Stuart Hoffman, chief
economist at PNC Financial Services.
The U.S. job gains in June were wide-
spread. Factories added 16,000 work-
ers, retailers 40,200. Financial and
insurance rms increased their payrolls
by 17,000. Restaurants and bars
employed 32,800 more people. Only
construction, which gained a mere
6,000, reected the slow recovery of
previous years.
Local governments added 18,000 edu-
cation workers. But that might have
been a quirk: Many schools that had
been closed for snow days stayed open
longer than usual in June, said Diane
Swonk, chief economist at Mesirow
Financial in Chicago.
Over the past three months, job
growth has averaged a healthy
272,000. And in May, the economy sur-
passed the jobs total from December
2007, when the Great Recession of-
cially began.
Researchers at the liberal Economic
Policy Institute estimate that 6.7 mil-
lion more jobs would have been needed
to keep up with U.S. population
growth.
One key challenge is whether the job
gains will pull more Americans back
into the workforce. Many people who
lost jobs during the recession and were
never rehired have stopped looking for
work. Just 62.8 percent of American
adults are working or are looking for a
job, compared with 66 percent before
the downturn.
The number of long-term unemployed
has dropped 1.2 million over the past
year to just under 3.1 million. But the
government data suggests that numer-
ous people without jobs have given up
their searches a trend that could drag
on future U.S. growth.
And average pay has grown just 2 per-
cent a year during the recovery, roughly
in line with ination and below the
long-run average annual growth of
about 3.5 percent.
The lack of strong wage growth
means the Federal Reserve may not feel
pressure to start raising short-term
interest rates soon as a way of control-
ling ination.
We are still not seeing any signi-
cant pickup in wage growth, Paul
Ashworth, chief U.S. economist at
Capital Economics, wrote in a research
note. We suspect that Fed ofcials will
continue to cling to the view that there
is still plenty of slack in the labor mar-
ket.
However, the steady hiring means
businesses are increasingly competing
to nd workers.
Its becoming more difcult to nd
the candidates that were looking for,
said Brandon Calvo, chief operating
ofcer at Cosentino North America, a
Houston-based rm that sells materials
for kitchen counters and bathrooms.
The job gains have intensified
despite the slump that kicked off 2014.
The economys contraction in the
rst three months of this year was the
sharpest since the recession. Ferocious
winter storms caused factories to close
and prevented consumers from visiting
shopping malls and auto dealers.
Still, the frigid weather failed to
freeze hiring. Job gains ramped up with
the warmth of spring and summer.
Weve seen hiring growth out of the
winter because it was stagnant, said
Richard Bitner, vice president of mar-
keting for Visiting Angels, a home
health care services rm headquartered
in Havertown, Pennsylvania.
Most economists say annualized eco-
nomic growth likely reached a solid 3
percent to 3.5 percent in the April-June
quarter. Growth over the entire year
should be about 2 percent, they say,
similar to last years 1.9 percent expan-
sion.
Several other signs point to the econ-
omys brightening health.
Auto sales rose at the fastest pace in
eight years in June. Factory orders
picked up last month. And home sales
strengthened this spring after having
sputtered in the middle of last year when
higher mortgage rates and rising prices
hurt affordability.
RECOVERY
the hospital.
The three suspects were arrested and
appeared in court Thursday afternoon
on felony charges of robbery for gang
purposes and the commission of a
gang crime. Each asked for court-
appointed attorneys and pleaded not
guilty to the charges. They did not
waive their right to a speedy trial and
return to court July 16 for a prelimi-
nary hearing.
Bail was set at $100,000 for each
and they remain in custody.
Esqueda-Perez also has a no-bail
hold for allegedly violating his felony
probation with the new arrest. In
March, Perez was sentenced to 90 days
jail and three years probation for sell-
ing marijuana the previous December.
Anyone with additional information
about the incident should contact
police at (650) 877-8900 or the
anonymous tip line at (650) 952-
2244.
ATTACK
run off out of fear, according to the
SPCA.
If a pet panics even while at home
due to noise from the reworks, pet
owners can talk to their veterinarian
about ways to relieve anxiety, accord-
ing to the SPCA.
As summertime temperatures
increase, pet owners should be aware
of providing their dogs or cats with
plenty of water and access to shade,
according to the SPCA. Even hot
asphalt can hurt dogs sensitive paws.
Dogs should never be left alone in
cars, even with the windows down, as
temperatures can quickly rise to dan-
gerous levels, according to the SPCA.
And nally, pet owners should be
careful to keep certain foods, drinks
and substances away from pets during
parties and barbecues, according to the
SPCA.
Chocolate, coffee, avocado,
macadamia nuts, grapes, raisins and
raw meat can cause health problems,
and alcoholic beverages, matches and
lighter uid can poison pets if ingest-
ed, according to the SPCA.

FRIDAY, JULY 4, 2014
CANCER (June 21-July 22) You will be feeling
out of sorts. Spend some quiet time catching up on
reading or research. Most of all, distance yourself
from an emotional situation so that you can see
things differently.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You have a lot to be grateful
for. A lucrative job offer that interests you will pop up.
Look for an opportunity and you will nd one.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Work hard, but dont
ignore your health. Getting stressed or run-down will
damage your ability to be productive, erasing your
chances of progress.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) You are at your most
appealing, and someone is trying to get your attention.
You may have to make an adjustment if you want to get
all of your projects nished on time.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Aim to please by being
self-sufcient. Stay in control of your affairs rather
than depending on others to handle your nances or
career objectives for you.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) An idea you have
been rebelling against could be more lucrative than you
thought. This may be your lucky day, so make the most
of it. Stop criticizing and start contributing.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Dont shirk your
responsibilities. You will have a lot to answer for if you
havent been pulling your weight at home or in the
workplace. Cut your losses by taking care of business.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) With a few minor
adjustments, you can make great progress. If you let
your intuition and creativity lead the way, you wont be
sorry. Romance is highlighted.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) Think about your
future. Its time to lay the groundwork to obtain a
comfortable standard of living. Look into savings plans
that will help you reach your goals.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) Not everyone will be
open to constructive criticism. Be diplomatic, and
consider the feelings of others before you dole out
advice. Work on your own issues, not those of the
people around you.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You cant get ahead
by looking back. Stick to your game plan, ignore
your critics and nish what you start. Keep moving
forward; youre heading toward a brighter future.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) There will be
favorable developments in your personal life. If you
are attached, you will find a deeper connection with
your partner. If you are single, be prepared for an
exciting new chapter.
