U.K.S KATE GIVES BIRTH TO ROYAL HEIR
By Angela Swartz
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
How the federal Patient Protection and
Affordable Care Act will affect small busi-
nesses when it is implemented next year
was the main topic of conversation at an
informational forum in Redwood City yes-
terday morning.
The act will take effect in January 2014,
and require all Americans to have health
insurance. Currently, there are 5.3 million
uninsured Californians, according to
Covered California, the health care
exchange created as a result of the
Affordable Care Act.
Businesses with 50 employees or fewer
will not be mandated to provide their
employees with insurance, but experts on a
panel to discuss the act highlighted some of
the benets for businesses providing health
insurance, including tax credits. Larger
companies will pay fees for either not offer-
ing insurance or not offering affordable
enough insurance plans to their employees.
The forum was organized by state Sen.
Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo, Assemblyman
Rich Gordon, D-Menlo Park, and
Assemblyman Kevin Mullin, D-South San
Francisco.
Theres a lot of uncertainty surrounding
the act, Mullin said at the event. The
implementation is a large undertaking.
The Redwood City-San Mateo County
Chamber of Commerce was a co-host of the
forum. Amy Buckmaster, chamber president
and CEO, said in a press release that the
chamber hears from many small businesses

Grand jury questions
countys budget gap
Report claims deficit no longer exists
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
San Mateo County has not had a
structural decit for the last 10 years,
despite using the alleged gap and the
use of reserves to balance the budget as
reason for voters to favor four tax
measures, according to the civil grand
jury.
The jury report released yesterday
claims the Board of Supervisors sys-
tematically excludes some or all of its
extra property tax revenue when pen-
ciling out its budget to create the
impression of a decit despite having
a multi-million dollar surplus.
But board President Don Horsley and
County Manager John Maltbie counter that the jury is the
one that is wrong and that the countys habit of not includ-
ing excess Educational Revenue Augmentation Funds is s-
cally prudent.
Had we thrown all caution to the wind and spent every
cent then wed have real nancial trouble, Maltbie said.
Waste board change
set to move forward
More members signing on to elected
representation proposal for SBWMA
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
An idea that rst emerged in 2005 out of Belmont may
soon transform how the areas top waste agency conducts
its public business.
If three more agencies agree, the makeup of the South
Bayside Waste Management Authority board will shift from
being comprised of city staff to elected ofcials as recently
endorsed by a Blue Ribbon Task Force comprised of the
authoritys 12 member agencies.
Today, both the Belmont City Council and San Mateo
County Board of Supervisors will vote on whether to amend
the SBWMAs joint powers agreement to change the boards

Students and parents at the Mills High School gym gather to speak out about AP test invalidations at a community meeting
last night.
By Angela Swartz
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Hundreds of frustrated Mills High
School parents and students spoke out
at a community meeting last night in
Millbrae about the College Boards
decision to invalidate Advanced
Placement exams taken this May
because of seating irregularities.
And legal action seems the likely
next step.
Last week, the San Mateo Union
High School Districts reported that
test distributor College Board invali-
dated tests in 11 AP subjects taken this
May because of seating irregularities.
The decision affected more than 200
students and resulted in more than 600
AP exams being canceled because stu-
dents tested in multiple subjects.
Educational Testing Service, the
College Boards security provider that
administers the AP Exams, stated ETS
was notied by one student who com-
plained via email back in May.
During testing, Mills placed some of
the students in the library at tables sit-
ting diagonally across from each other
since Mills didnt have enough class-
room space. The College Board regula-
tion manual stated this may lead to
invalidations since the ideal seating
arrangement states students are sup-
posed to sit in individual desks, facing
the same direction. The school district
conrmed that the ETS had no suspi-
cions of cheating, but ETS views it as
a problem with the tests integrity.

Fisherman gets 230 pound
tuna despite capsized boat
LIHUE, Hawaii A 54-year-old
sherman is safe after his 14-foot boat
capsized as he was landing a 230-
pound tuna in the ocean off Hawaii.
The U.S. Coast Guard rescued
Anthony Wichman on Friday after
receiving a distress call from his wife.
Wichman was shing about 10 miles
southwest of Port Allen on the island
of Kauai Friday morning when he
hooked the Ahi tuna. Coast Guard Lt.
Jessica Mickelson tells Hawaii News
Now that Wichman was able to use his
cellphone to call his wife for help.
The Coast Guard dispatched a heli-
copter to rescue Wichman. Friends
arrived on another boat and were able
to right Wichmans boat. They towed
it and the sh back to port.
Dennis Farina, star of
Law & Order, dead at 69
NEWYORK Dennis Farina, a one-
time Chicago cop who as a popular
character actor played a TV cop on
Law & Order during his wide-ranging
career, has died.
Death came Monday morning in a
Scottsdale, Ariz., hospital after Farina
suffered a blood clot in his lung,
according to his publicist, Lori De
Waal. He was 69.
For three decades, Farina was a char-
acter actor who displayed remarkable
dexterity, charm
and toughness,
making effective
use of his craggy
face, husky frame,
ivory smile and
ample mustache. He
could be as dapper
as Fred Astaire and
as full of threat as
Clint Eastwood.
His gift has been described as wry,
tough-guy panache, and audiences
loved him for it.
Sometimes you can take those dra-
matic roles and maybe interject a little
humor into them, and I think the
reverse also works, Farina said in a
2007 interview with the Associated
Press. One of the funny things in life
to me is a guy who takes himself very
seriously.
Farinas many lms include Saving
Private Ryan, (1998), Out Of Sight
(1998), Midnight Run (1988),
Manhunter (1986), and his breakout
and perhaps most beloved lm, Get
Shorty (1995), a comedic romp where
he played a Miami mob boss.
He recently completed shooting a
comedy lm, Lucky Stiff.
Among his numerous TV roles was
Detective Joe Fontana on Law &
Order during the 2004-06 seasons,
replacing longtime cast member Jerry
Orbach in the ensemble.
Law & Order executive producer
Dick Wolf said he was stunned and
saddened to hear about Dennis unex-
pected passing this morning. The
Law & Order family extends sympa-
thy and condolences to his family.
Also on TV, Farina was a regular in
the star-studded though short-lived
2011-12 HBO horse-track drama
Luck.
He starred in the 1980s cult favorite
Crime Story, and his stylish pri-
vate-eye drama Buddy Faro (1998)
was warmly received if little-watched.
He followed that up with a 2002 sit-
com op, The In-Laws.
Last season he guest-starred on the
Fox comedy New Girl.
A veteran of the Chicago theater,
Farina appeared in Joseph Mantegnas
Bleacher Bums and Streamers,
directed by Terry Kinney, among other
productions.
Born Feb. 29, 1944, Farina was
raised in a working-class neighbor-
hood of Chicago, the seventh child of
Italian immigrants.
After three years in the U.S. Army,
he served with the Chicago Police
Department for 18 years, both as a uni-
formed ofcer (he was there for the
1968 Chicago riots) and a burglary
detective, before he found his way into
acting as he neared his forties.
His rst lm was the 1981 action
drama Thief, directed by Michael
Mann a future collaborator on
numerous projects as recently as
Luck whom he had met through a
mutual friend.

San Mateo County is now leasing both
Circle Star ofce towers to an offshoot of
Softbank, the telecom company which
owns a majority of Sprint Nextel and is
already committed to occupying one of the
San Carlos buildings.
In April, SoftBank Corp. contracted to
rent out the 103,948-square-foot tower at 1
Circle Star Way. On Tuesday morning, the
Board of Supervisors is expected to sign off
on a lease for its 103,904-square-foot sister
property, 2 Circle Star Way. The second
lease is estimated to bring in $3.25 million
annually after the county recoups its up-
front costs for improvements and $1.42
million broker fee. Taken with the first
buildings lease, the county stands to rake
in more than $6 million in yearly revenue.
It is absolutely a good deal. With both
leases running concurrently for seven years
we should net out more than $30 million,
said County Manager John Maltbie.
Softbanks lease for 1 Circle Star included
right of refusal for the second building
which it exercised after another rm in June
signed a letter of intent to lease three oors.
Softbank countered with a proposal to lease
all oors minus the 44-square-foot control
room for the electronic billboard.
Maltbie said he understands the second
building will be populated not with
Softbank itself but other technology rms
with which it is aligned.
The 82-month lease expires in May 2020
with the option of extending it another 34
months with the rent adjusted to 100 percent
of the prevailing market rate.
The county purchased 1 and 2 Circle Star
Way, two four-story ofce buildings plus
parking, for $40 million two years ago as a
way to escape pricey leases for several
departments and relocate 911 dispatch.
However, ofcials ultimately decided leas-
ing the buildings was a more nancially pru-
dent choice, particularly because making
Circle Star compliant for dispatch would
cost more than constructing an entirely new
building.
Maltbie said comparing whether the coun-
ty leasing the buildings or relocating its
own departments is the better nancial deal
is comparing apples and oranges. Maltbie
said the original plan for the buildings was
conceived when the county had much greater
space needs but has since downsized.
Our needs changed dramatically,
Maltbie said.
The lease with the county is actually
Starburst 1, Inc. a subsidiary of SoftBank
Corp. In October, SoftBank announced
plans to acquire 70 percent of Sprint Nextel
for $20.1 billion. CEO Masayoshi Son is
also rumored to have purchased a 9-acre
Woodside estate on Mountain Home Road
that at the time made it the most expensive
private residence on record in California and
potentially the nation.
The Board of Supervisors meets 9 a.m.

El Camino Real is the areas major
public transportation thoroughfare
and SamTrans has gured out a way to
better serve its customers along the
corridor by merging two routes into
one and have it run every 15 minutes.
Routes 390 and 391 will be replaced
by Route ECR starting Aug. 12.
The 390 and 391 routes are not inter-
changeable at some locations now and
each line runs only once every 40 min-
utes, according to a statement by
SamTrans spokeswoman Jayme
Ackemann.
With the new ECR line, every bus
goes to the same stops, so customers
do not have to worry about whether
they are on the right bus, according to
Ackemanns statement.
El Camino Real provides the transit
agency with almost 50 percent of its
riders.
Route ECR began weekend operation
as a pilot project in August 2012 and
the service has proved to be popular
among weekend customers adding new
riders nearly every month since its
launch. Weekend ridership has
increased 4 percent since the routes
launch last August.
The move is part of the SamTrans
Service Plan, which is a comprehen-
sive assessment of all bus service and
is intended to grow ridership and
improve efciency.
Route ECR will not go into San
Francisco but every bus will go into
Palo Alto and run every 15 minutes.
With ECR, customers can throw
away the schedule, Deputy Chief
Executive Ofcer Chuck Harvey wrote
in a statement. The service is intend-
ed to be spontaneous use, which
means that a customer can walk out to
El Camino and expect a bus every 15
minutes without consulting a schedule.
Route ECR will take them anywhere
they want to go along the corridor.
Additional SSP changes will be
rolled out in January 2014.
Route ECR will provide service to all
Caltrain and Bay Area Rapid Transit
stations along the route South San
Francisco and San Bruno BART can be
accessed via a short walk from El
Camino Real as well as other key
transit centers served by routes 390
and 391, according to Ackemanns
statement.
In other transit news:
Construction crews have begun
excavating and removing portions of
the road at the new San Bruno Caltrain
station to lower the streets and allow
for greater vehicle clearance under the
crossings. Once completed, the clear-
ance for each intersection will be
approximately 15 feet. The work will
require road closures on Angus, San
Mateo and San Bruno avenues between
now and Sept. 2.

NOGALES, Ariz. U.S. authorities
have detained eight activists who asked
to be allowed to re-enter the United
States from Mexico on humanitarian
grounds in a protest against American
immigration policies.
Customs and Border Protection of-
cials detained the activists Monday after
they led applications for humanitarian
parole at the Nogales border crossing to
try to return to the United States.
CBPofcials said they could not com-
ment on specic cases but under immi-
gration law all applicants for admission
bear the burden of proof to establish
they are eligible to enter the country.
Domenic Powell, a spokesman for the
National Immigrant Youth Alliance, said
the group hadnt been taken to a deten-
tion center as of Monday afternoon.
He said the alliance would continue to
pressure federal authorities to let the
eight activists go back home to the
U.S.
Margo Cowan, a lawyer for the group,
says she will le asylum applications
on behalf of the activists if they are
denied humanitarian parole.
On the U.S. side of the border, about
60 people waiting for the activists
chanted in Spanish, No papers, no
fear.
Three activists left the U.S. and trav-
eled to Mexico expressly to participate
in the protest. The group wants to draw
attention to the huge jump in deporta-
tions carried out under the Obama admin-
istration, and reafrm their attachment
to the country where they were raised.

BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE
Less than two weeks before BARTwork-
ers could resume their strike, union lead-
ers alleged Monday that managements
chief negotiator has a long history of
engaging in hardball tactics and accused
him of engaging in unfair bargai ni ng.
Roxanne Sanchez, the president of
Service International Union Local 1021,
which represents 1,430 mechanics, cus-
todians and clerical workers, said Thomas
Hock and his company, Professional
Transit Management, have been named in
47 complaints with the National Labor
Relations Board since 2001 and hes been
involved in negotiations that have result-
ed in seven transit strikes since 2005.
Speaking at a news conference outside
the Caltrans building in Oakland, where
contract talks have been taking place,
Sanchez alleged that Hock has engaged in
surface bargaining, which she said is a
technique designed not to make progress
and to create a public backlash against
BART workers.
Sanchez also alleged that Hock is
unavailable for 10 of the 14 days remain-
ing before the contract for BART employ-
ees expires on Aug. 4 and called for BART
General Manager Grace Crunican or
another top executive to come to the bar-
gaining table to try to reach an agree-
ment.
However, Crunican said she still sup-
ports Hock because hes a great negotia-
tor who has settled a lot of contracts.
She said Hock has negotiated more than
400 labor contracts since 1972 and in
that time only two unfair labor practice
charges alleging bad faith bargai ni ng
have been filed against him.
Crunican said one of those complaints
was withdrawn by the union that filed it
and in the second case there was no find-
ing of bad faith bargai ni ng.
Crunican also alleged that SEIU nego-
tiators havent been at the bargaining
table 40 percent of the time since con-
tract talks began on April 1.
The general manager said shes not at
the bargaining table every day but shes
fully informed about the talks and is
available at all times.
Members of SEIU Local 1021 and mem-
bers of Amalgamated Transit Union Local
1555, which represents 945 station
agents, train operators and clerical work-
ers, went on strike on July 1 but late on
July 4 they agreed to extend their previ-
ous contract for 30 days, until Aug. 4, and
return to work the afternoon of July 5.
The four-and-a-half day strike clogged
local highways and caused commuting
headaches for Bay Area residents.
BART management said state mediators
who brokered the 30-day contract exten-
sion were informed that Hock wouldnt be
available from July 24 to July 28 and
agreed there would still be ample time to
negotiate a contract.
The key issues in the contract talks are
wages, employee contributions for health
care and retirement costs, and safety.
Among those who joined Sanchez in
criticizing Hock were Josie Mooney, one
of SEIU Local 1021s lead negotiators,
and ATU Local 1555 spokesman Leo Ruiz.
Sanchez said theres still a huge divide
between the parties and very serious dif-
ferences at this late date.
But Crunican was more hopeful that a
settlement can still be reached, saying,
There are still two weeks to go and thats
a good amount of time.
She said, Were here to get a settle-
ment.
Labor leaders accuse BART
negotiator of hardball tactics
By Julie Pace
WASHINGTON If President Barack
Obamas new focus on the economy sounds
familiar, thats because hes done it before.
Since the rst year of his presidency,
Obama has been launching and re-launch-
ing initiatives on the economy. Some
came with new policy proposals, others with
catchy slogans.
Remember 2011s Winning the Future
campaign? Or the We Cant Wait initiatives
that followed later that year? Just a few
months ago, Obama was headlining the
Middle Class Jobs and Opportunity Tour.
So far theres no slogan attached to the
White Houses latest initiative, which kicks
off Wednesday in Galesburg, Ill. The presi-
dents advisers are billing his remarks as a
major address on the economy, though no
new initiatives are expected to be announced.
Im going to talk about where we need to
go from here, how we need to put behind us
the distractions and the phony debates and
nonsense that somehow passes for politics
these days, and get back to basics, Obama
said Monday as he addressed Organizing for
Action, the non-prot group backing his
agenda.
Obama said Wednesdays speech would
kick off a months-long effort to refocus on
the economy and start exploring some big
and bold ideas some hes offered previ-
ously, and some new ones, too. Aides said
those fresh policy proposals would come in a
series of follow-up speeches planned through
September, most of which will be narrowly
targeted on issues like housing, retirement
security and expanding access to education.
White House spokesman Jay Carney said
Obamas repeated attempts to orient his pub-
lic agenda on the economy should serve as a
reminder that the president has always been
focused on these issues.
That doesnt mean we dont need to con-
tinue to remind people that improving the
economic situation in America is the princi-
ple reason why our fellow citizens elect and
send people to Washington, Carney said.
But congressional Republicans, who con-
tinue to be a roadblock for many of the pres-
idents economic proposals, dismissed the
White Houses new public relations push as a
retread of old ideas.
Weve seen this song and dance before,
said Brendan Buck, a spokesman for House
Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio. Whether
its his health care law, his job-destroying
energy policies, or the mountain of regula-
tions piling up, its the presidents own poli-
cies that are responsible for this new normal
of weak economic growth and high unem-
ployment.
Obamas latest economic
push has a familiar feel

WORLD 8

Special:
4 Speakers
By Sylvia Hui and Gregory Katz
LONDON Champagne bottles
popped and shouts of Hip! Hip!
Hooray! erupted outside
Buckingham Palace on Monday as
Britain wel-
comed the birth
of Prince
William and his
wife Kates rst
child, a boy who
is now third in
line to the
British throne.
Hundreds of
Britons and
tourists broke
into song and
dance outside the
palace gates as
o f f i c i a l s
announced that
the future king
was born at 4:24
p.m., weighing
8 pounds, 6
ounces (3.75
kilograms), at
central Londons St. Marys
Hospital the same place where
William and his brother Harry were
born three decades ago.
The imminent arrival of the royal
baby was the subject of endless
speculation on social media and
was covered for days on live televi-
sion around the world, but in the
end the royal family managed to
keep it a remarkably private affair.
In line with royal tradition, a
terse statement announced only the
time of birth, the infants gender
and that mother and child were
doing well. It gave no information
about the babys name, and ofcials
would say only that a name would
be announced in due course.
Her Royal Highness and her
child are both doing well and will
remain in hospital overnight, it
said. William also issued a brief
statement, saying we could not be
happier.
Ofcials said William, who was
by his wifes side during the birth,
would also spend the night in the
hospital.
Williams press aides had talked
about preserving Kates dignity
throughout the pregnancy, and the
way the birth was handled showed
that the palaces impressive stage-
craft could give the royals a bubble
of privacy even in the age of Twitter
and 24-hour news broadcasts.
Just before 6 a.m., 31-year-old
Kate, also known as the Duchess of
Cambridge, entered the hospital
through a side door, avoiding the
mass of journalists camped outside.
Ofcials did not announce she was
hospitalized until more than an
hour later.
Later, as the world media gathered
outside lled hours of airtime with
speculation, the babys birth went
unannounced for nearly four hours,
allowing the royal couple the pri-
vate time they needed to act like a
regular family a goal 31-year-old
William has cherished.
He was able to tell his father,
Prince Charles, and grandmother,
Queen Elizabeth II, about the birth
and enjoy his wifes company with-
out having to cope with the over-
whelming media and public desire
for information.
By nightfall, the public still
knew very few details, but most
people seemed satised with the
days events. Londons landmarks,
including the London Eye, lit up in
the national colors of red, white and
blue, and the city had a party atmos-
phere unmatched since last sum-
mers Olympics.
Outside the hospital, a man
dressed as a town crier in traditional
robes and an extravagant feathered
hat shouted the news and rang a
bell.
Acar carrying the announcement
drove from the hospital to the
palace, where the news was greeted
with shrieks of Its a boy! and
strains of For Hes a Jolly Good
Fellow. A large crowd rushed
against the palace fences to catch a
glimpse of an ornate, gilded easel
displaying a small bulletin formal-
ly announcing the news.
The framed sheet of paper became
the target of a thousand camera
ashes as people thrust their smart-
phones through the railings. Hours
after the initial announcement,
crowds were still surging forward to
get near the easel. Some placed
presents and bouquets in front of
the palace, while others waved
Union Jack ags and partied on the
streets to celebrate.
Its a boy! U.K.s Kate gives birth to royal heir
HOMEBIRTHING
Most peopletakeahospital birthfor grantedthese
days, but just a few decades ago the custom
among royals as it was among commoners
was to give birth at home.
Queen Elizabeth II was born at 17 Bruton Street in
London,a private family home,and she gave birth
to her sons Charles, Andrew and Edward in
Buckingham Palace. Her only daughter, Princess
Anne, was born at Clarence House, also a royal
property.
That changed by the 1980s,when Princes William
and Harry were both born at the private Lindo
Wing of St. Marys hospital in central London.
William and Kates rst child a prince was
born Monday in the very same wing.
HOMESCHOOLING
For a long time, royals were educated in private.
The queen was taught at home by her father,
tutors and governesses, and never mingled with
commoners at a school, college or university.
Charles was the rst royal heir to have gone to
school, and William and Kate, who were both
educated at independent schools, will doubtless
have their son do the same.
DADSINTHEDELIVERYROOM
William said he would be there with Kate when
she gave birth, in line with the expectations of
many modern parents and he delivered on
that promise. He follows in the footsteps of his
father, Charles, who declared how much he
relished being in the delivery room in a letter to
his godmother, Patricia Brabourne.
I am so thankful I was beside Dianas bedside the
whole time because by the end of the day I really
felt as though Id shared deeply in the process of
birth,Charles wrote shortly after Williams birth.
Things were quite different when Charles was
born. When the queen (then Princess Elizabeth)
went into labor,her husband,Prince Philip,was off
playingsquashinthepalaceout of restlessness,
not indifference, noted Charles biographer
Jonathan Dimbleby.
OFFICIALINTRUDERS
In the early 1900s and probably before
custom dictated that government ofcials should
be present when a royal was born. When the
queen was born in 1926, for example, the home
secretary was present among the doctors.
The current home secretary,Theresa May,said the
centuries-old tradition required the ofcial to
attend as evidence that it was really a royal birth
and the baby hadnt been smuggled in.
Fortunatelyfor Katethepracticewasabolished
years ago by George VI.
The custom is thought to have been linked to the
so-called warming pan plot of 1688, when
rumors swirled that the supposed child of James
II was sneaked into the delivery room in a long-
handledbed-warmingpan.Some40to60people
were said to have dropped in to witness the birth.
HOWMANYNAMES?
Now that the babys gender is known,the biggest
guessing game surrounding the royal birth is the
name. Most royals have three to four rst names,
usually in a combination that honors previous
monarchs or relatives. The queens full name is
Elizabeth Alexandra Mary,after her mother,great-
grandmother and grandmother,and Williams full
name is William Arthur Philip Louis.
The bookmakers had the shortest odds on
Alexandra, Charlotte, Elizabeth for a girl, and
George or James for a boy. It could take a while
for the public to nd out the future kings name.
When William was born,it took a full week before
his name was announced.
ANDTHELASTNAME?
The royals dont require a surname. The correct
title when referring to the new prince will be His
Royal Highness Prince (name) of Cambridge. If
required,current membersof theroyal household
may use Mountbatten-Windsor, the surname
adopted in 1960 for all of the queens children.
(That name combines Windsor, the family name
adoptedbyKingGeorgeVin1917toreplaceSaxe-
Coburg-Gotha, and Prince Philips family name,
Mountbatten).

Wales,isknownasFlight Lt.Waleswhenonmilitary

CHRISTENING
Royal babiestendtobeofciallychristenedseveral
days to weeks after they are born, and there are a
few potential places this could take place for the
new baby.
The queen was christened in the private chapel at
Buckingham Palace, while both William and his
father Charles were christened in the palaces
Music Room.
APLAINOLDEASELVS. TWITTER
The traditional way the palace announces a royal
babys birth to the world is as quaint as it gets: A
messenger with the news travels by car from the
hospital toBuckinghamPalace,carryingapieceof
paper detailing the infants gender, weight and
time of birth. The bulletin is then posted on a
wooden easel on the palaces forecourt for
everyone to see.
This time, however, the Palace announced the
news by press release.
In the old days the announcement was made to
the wider public by a reader on radio, but today
thats replaced by the Internet and social media:
After the announcement was made, ofcials
postedthenewsonTwitter tomillionsof followers
worldwide.
TONANNYORNOT
William and Kate have not made any public
announcements about hiring a nanny to help
them bring up their son.Many expect the couple
to be more hands-on parents than earlier
generations of royals, and some have speculated
that because of the couples close ties with Kates
parents, Michael and Carole Middleton will also
have a big role in helping Kate with the baby.
Nannies have always been central to bringing up
royal babies. Charles was famously close to his
nannies, and William and Harry also enjoyed a
bondwiththeir former nannyTiggyLegge-Bourke
who was so well known that she herself
frequently appeared in the news.

Letters to the editor
By John L. Maltbie
T
he 21st century allows everyone
with an Internet connection or a
smartphone to access thousands
of public records and voice an opinion.
Have a strong feeling about a local issue?
Tweet it, Facebook it or Pin it. Well get
i t .
Online access builds upon long-estab-
lished laws and codes governing open
meetings and open data. The Brown Act
requires that the publics business be done
in public. The California Public Records
Act and the federal Freedom of
Information Act give you the right to
access information about your local, state
and federal governments.
State law requires that every candidate
for elected office and holders of key posi-
tions complete and file publicly available
disclosure statements with investments,
sources of income, property holdings and
other information. Openness and trans-
parency are the foundations of democracy.
So you might be surprised to learn that
one of the most potentially powerful civil
institutions in California is cloaked in a
veil of secrecy: the civil grand jury.
The civil grand jury consists of 19 men
and women who look into the functions of
local government and, ideally, root out
inefficiency or corruption. Yet they per-
form this watchdog function behind solid-
ly closed doors. They are chosen in secret,
meet in secret, question witnesses in
secret, deliberate in secret.
This culture of secrecy undermines the
grand jurys credibility and effectiveness.
In its most recent report on the countys
use of excess Educational Revenue
Augmentation Funds, the civil grand jury
demonstrates an abysmal lack of under-
standing of the principles and practices of
budgeting and financial management.
Either the grand jury was uninformed or
misinformed regarding
the countys use of this
funding source. Of
course well never know
because well never
learn about their deliber-
ations.
Whats the issue? The
civil grand jury criti-
cized the countys budg-
eting practices, coming to the bizarre
conclusion the county is somehow not
fully accounting for all revenue.
Had the civil grand jury taken the time
to read its own 2012 fiscal year audit
report, it would have discovered 10 sepa-
rate references to the use of excess ERAF
as well as a separate paragraph in the con-
trollers accompanying message. The
issue has been thoroughly discussed at
meetings of the Board of Supervisors
(archived online by video and text) and is
a matter of public record which the jury
was free to peruse had it chosen to do so.
(What is excess ERAF? In a nutshell, the
county and local cities get back some of
their property tax revenue used by the
state to meet its obligation to fund local
schools when this revenue is in excess of
the amount needed by the schools.
These additional funds are called excess
ERAF. As property tax revenue and
schools needs change from year to year,
the county budgets plans for about
half of what it expects to receive in excess
ERAF. The other half is used for reserves
or other one-time purposes.)
The civil grand jury can provide a valu-
able service in the investigation of gov-
ernment operations. To be effective, the
civil grand jury must conduct itself and
produce reports that are professional,
accurate and fair. To gauge these things,
the public should know something about
the civil grand jury and its business. At a
minimum, the applications for grand juror
should be made public the public has a
right to know whos conducting business
on behalf of the public.
Like office holders and key officials,
grand jurors should be required to fill out
financial disclosure forms and a conflict-
of-interest statement. How else is the pub-
lic going to know if conclusions reached
by the civil grand jury are a result of bias-
es or even the financial interests of cer-
tain jurors?
The civil grand jury does not need a
cloak of secrecy to conducts its work. The
U.S. Congress and the California
Legislature both have investigative func-
tions yet they manage to conduct their
business in public. Even such weighty
matters as the appointment of a Supreme
Court justice or the impeachment of the
president of the United States are conduct-
ed in public. Criminal grand juries issue a
transcript and it deals with the very
freedom of individuals, not accounting
functions.
San Mateo County is one of only two of
Californias 58 counties with AAAcredit
ratings from the nations two largest rat-
ings firms. Our controller and Office of
Budget and Performance have received
numerous awards for excellence in finan-
cial reporting. We take a conservative
approach to budgeting uncertain funding
sources, and few sources are more uncer-
tain than excess ERAF. In fact, the gover-
nors budget could strip San Mateo County
of tens of millions of dollars in excess
ERAF in its latest budget.
Good thing we didnt budget all of it.
John Maltbie is the county manager for San
Mateo County.
President Obama
Editor,
In his address to the nation last week
following the verdict in the Trayvon
Martin-George Zimmerman trial, President
Obama has asked us all to think about
what we have learned. The fact that there
has been such a passionate reaction to the
verdict, and the presidents subsequent
remarks, shows how our country continues
to wrestle with the entire milieu of race,
history, education, opportunity, justice
and how do we make all this work? Our
president brings an important perspective
to all these issues and his words resonate,
not just because he is the president, but
because he has spoken to us with the faith
and hope of a simple American citizen.

Fatwa
Editor,
Letter writer Patricia Gray has much
more faith in the Supreme Leader of Iran
than I do (Jackie Speiers town hall meet-
ing in the July 19 edition of the Daily
Journal).
Iran would not be the first Islamic coun-
try to have nuclear weapons. Pakistan has
had them for years and I dont believe that
they are any less devout than the Iranian
mullahs. No responsible person wants a
war with Iran. However, it is the height of
irresponsibility to base our security on a
fatwa. Iran is aiding the Syrian govern-
ment, fomenting trouble in Lebanon and
arming Hamas in Gaza. Do we really want
to take a chance and let them get nuclear
weapons? I hope not and I hope that they
will understand that a we will not tolerate
a terrorist state like Iran to have the ulti-
mate in weapons of mass destruction.

N
ext time a California Highway
Patrol Ofcer asks if I know why I
was pulled over, I have the perfect
answer.
Its so I can check
our your sexy uni-
form!
Let the ofcer mull
that over while I con-
template the speeding
or cellphone ticket Im
sure Ill still receive.
Perhaps there can still
be frisking.
Aperson in just
about any uniform has long made many a
person go weak in the knees although
frankly those associated with say French fry
technician or orderly dont quite carry the
same aesthetic quality as a sooty-faced re-
ghter or white-capped nurse. But for those
seeking a uniform that makes others hope
theyre packing a fully-loaded weapon, little
beats law enforcement. How else to explain
the penchant for police ofcer costumes by
Magic Mike and Village People wannabes?
Now, that long-held stereotype has moved
beyond sloshy bachelorette parties and
best-selling pin-up calendars because
www.uniformdating.com has conrmed it is
true. This site is sort of like eHarmony
meets Aramark. Out of 1,000 people sur-
veyed, California Highway Patrol ranks
number one for appealing law enforcement
uniforms. Maybe the agency should change
its name to the California Hotness Patrol.
The blue and khaki ensemble beat out
patrols in Texas, New York, Florida and
Massachusetts which is no small feat when
you consider that (and this is verbatim from
the press release) America is home to some
of the most iconic and may we add lust-
inducing cop uniforms in the world. And
apparently, the majority of those with a soft
spot for uniforms is still specically long-
ing for the days of Ponch and Jon.
The PR machine behind the dating site
has a different spin on the outcome, con-
cluding that the CHP uniform in lighter
colours is seen to be less threatening than
the more traditional paramilitary blacks and
blues of forces such as the NYPD. This
statement proves several things. First, the
companys ak is obviously British which
explains why any American force is alluring
enough to cross the pond. Bobbies might
be polite, help pedestrians across the street
and come equipped with an accent but the
helmet and club does little in the way to
induce toe curling and hair ipping. On the
other hand, this pat explanation also means
SWATmembers are out of luck at making the
masses want to, ahem, cop a feel.
Uniformdating.com acionados want their
law enforcement condent but not aggres-
sive, authoritative but not intimidating. In
fact, the public relations rm goes on to say
the California Highway Patrol outt sug-
gests that people want a partner who is
warm and easygoing. Because isnt that
what you immediately think when pulled
over hey, that ofcer approaching with
the ticket book in hand appears oh so warm
and easygoing!
The company further notes that all top-
ranked state forces wear hats which indicates
that, and again Im not making this up,
police in hats especially traditional hats
such as the Smokey Bear are seen to have
more authority. In other words, all a person
needs is the right headgear to jump-start
anybodys internal forest re.
Yet, www.uniformdating.com is shooting
itself in the foot with this proclamation
because those looking for a little love or
even the chance to earn a one-night badge
of dishonor should eschew the bars, the
churches and most certainly the website.
Love is in the air and lust is on the road so
get thee to the highway and put the pedal to
the metal. And when pulled over? Just claim
youre trying out speed dating.

Big movers
By Steve Rothwell
NEW YORK Mining companies
and banks helped the stock market
overcome some disappointing quarter-
ly performances on Monday.
Poor second-quarter results from a
handful of large U.S. companies
weighed on stocks. McDonalds Corp.
fell after its results missed expecta-
tions and it warned of a tough year
ahead. Media company Gannett
dropped after its revenue fell short of
nancial analysts expectations.
But gold and copper prices boosted
mining companies, and that helped
nudge the market to another all-time
high.
Investors are looking ahead a busy
week of corporate earnings. More than
150 companies in the Standard &
Poors 500 stock index are reporting
quarterly earnings over the next four
days.
For the most part, corporations have
reported results that have beaten ana-
lysts expectations, though there have
been some big letdowns. On Friday,
Microsoft plunged after it reported
declining revenue and a big write-off
on its new tablet computer. Coca-Cola
slumped last Tuesday after the compa-
ny said it sold fewer soft drinks in
North America.
Earnings are not stellar, said Brad
Reynolds, chief investment ofcer at
investment adviser LJPR. It just
seems that the market is OK with
that.
Investors were more than OK with
gold Monday. Its price climbed above
$1,300 for rst time in a month, giv-
ing mining stocks a big lift.
Gold gained $43.10, or 3.3 percent,
to $1,336 an ounce. Copper rose 4
cents, or 1.3 percent, to $3.19 per
pound.
Among mining companies,
Newmont Mining rose $1.66, or 5.8
percent, to $30.35. Freeport-
McMoran Copper & Gold gained 59
cents, or 2.1 percent, to $29.15.
Gold plunged last month because
investors thought the Federal Reserve
was close to ending its economic stim-
ulus. That pushed up interest rates. And
when rates rise, it costs investors
more to hang onto gold, which pays
no interest.
But with the Fed now willing to con-
tinue the stimulus, rates are falling.
The S&P 500 index rose three
points, or 0.2 percent, to 1,695.53 on
Monday. The index is at an all-time
high, though trading volumes were
lower than average.
Five of the 10 industry group in the
S&P 500 rose. Gains were led by nan-
cial companies, which have posted
some of the strongest earnings for the
quarter so far. They are expected to
report average earnings growth of 23
percent. Bank of America added 17
cents, or 1.2 percent, to $14.92.
The Dow Jones industrial average
rose nearly 1.8 points, or 0.01 per-
cent, to 15,545.55. The slump in
McDonalds stock weighed on the
index. The restaurant chains stock fell
$2.69, or 2.7 percent, to $97.58.
The Nasdaq composite climbed
12.77 points, or 0.4 percent, to
3,600.39.
One sector that struggled was home-
builders. Sales of previously occupied
homes slipped in June to an annual rate
of 5.08 million, the National
Association of Realtors said Monday.
As a result, Pulte Group fell 22 cents,
or 1.1 percent, to $19.14. Lennar fell
73 cents, or 2.1 percent to $34.80.
The stock market has surged in July
following a tough June. Fed Chairman
Ben Bernanke spooked investors on
June 19, when he seemed to signal that
the Feds tapering of bond purchases
would start later this year. Then, after a
couple of weeks of panic in stock and
bond markets, Bernanke dialed things
back on July 10. Thats when he told
the National Bureau of Economic
Research, in a speech in Cambridge,
Mass., that the economy still needed
help from the Feds low rates.
S&P edges higher, helped by gold miners
By Christopher S. Rugaber
WASHINGTON U.S. sales of previously
occupied homes slipped in June to a season-
ally adjusted annual rate of 5.08 million but
remain near a 3 1/2-year high.
The National Association of Realtors said
Monday that sales fell 1.2 percent last
month from an annual rate of 5.14 million in
May. The NAR revised down Mays sales, but
they were still the highest since November
2009.
Despite last months dip, home sales have
surged 15.2 percent from a year ago. Sales
have recovered since early last year, buoyed
by job gains and low mortgage rates.
Still, mortgage rates have surged in recent
weeks over concern that the Federal Reserve
could slow its bond-buying programs later
this year. The Feds bond purchases have
helped keep long-term mortgage and other
rates low.
Higher mortgage rates slowed sales last
month of higher-priced homes in states such
as California and New York, the Realtors
group said.
The average rate on a 30-year xed mort-
gage leapt to 4.46 percent by the end of June
from 3.81 percent at the end of May. The rate
was 4.37 percent last week.
That rate increase could hamper sales in
coming months, economists said. But most
expect housing to continue to recover,
though at a slower pace.
Theres little doubt the housing market
slowed in the summer as mortgage rates
rose, Dan Greenhaus, chief global strategist
at BTIG LLC, an institutional brokerage,
said in a note to clients. Housing is still
expected to grow and contribute to economic
output. It just may not be at the pace weve
seen of late.
Sales of previously occupied homes in
June reflect contracts that were mostly
signed in April and May, when mortgage
rates were lower. Rising rates can cause some
signed contracts to fall through if buyers no
longer qualify for mortgages at higher rates.
The one factor thats likely most holding
back sales is a limited supply of homes
available. Though more sellers put their
homes on the market in June, the supply
remained unusually low nearly 8 percent
less than a year ago.
At the current sales pace, the number of
homes for sale would be exhausted in 5.2
months. Thats below the six months sup-
ply thats consistent with a healthy housing
market.
U.S. home sales dip but remain near 3 1/2-year high
By Michael Liedtke
SAN FRANCISCO Netixs revival of
the comedy series Arrested Development
didnt reel in as many subscribers to the
Internet video service as Wall Street had
hoped, turning a solid second-quarter earn-
ings report into a reality check.
Even though Netixs prot more than
quadrupled, the report released Monday
opped among investors because it didnt
live up to the lofty expectations propelling
the companys high-flying stock. The
shares have nearly tripled since the begin-
ning of the year, raising the pressure on
Netix Inc. to deliver specular numbers.
That didnt happen during the three
months ending in June, despite the much-
anticipated return of Arrested
Development after a seven-year absence.
Netixs stock slid $15.11, or 5.8 percent,
to $246.80 in extended trading after the
numbers came out.
It was a very good quarter, by most stan-
dards, but that doesnt cut it when your stock
has risen by 200 percent, said Pacic Crest
analyst Andy Hargeaves.
Netflix picked up 630,000 U.S. sub-
scribers during the three months ending in
June. That performance was slightly above
the mid-range target set by Netix Inc.s
management in April. But the Los Gatos,
Calif., company also had predicted it might
end the period with as many as 880,000
more subscribers a goal that many
investors evidently were hoping would be
reached.
Expectations had been raised by the
Memorial Day weekend release of 15 new
Arrested Development episodes. The com-
edy starring Jason Bateman and Michael
Cera had built a cult following before its
cancellation by the Fox network in 2006,
after three seasons.
In a letter to shareholders, Netix CEO
Reed Hastings credited Arrested
Development for providing a small but
noticeable bump in subscribers. He praised
the company for being able to add more sub-
scribers during the rst half of this year than
it did last year, despite intensifying compe-
tition from other Internet video services run
by Amazon.com Inc. and Hulu.
Netix has added 2.7 million subscribers
so far this year, up from 2.5 million at the
same time last year.
Netflixs 2Q report flops despite soaring earnings
By Michael Liedtke
SAN FRANCISCO Apples latest quar-
terly results are likely to illustrate why
investors are clamoring for the maker of the
iPhone and the iPad to come out with anoth-
er trend-setting device.
The report, due out after the stock market
closes Tuesday, is expected to show that
Apple Inc. is making less money as more
customers buy its lower-priced iPhones and
iPads instead of the top-of-the-line models.
Other consumers increasingly are bypass-
ing Apple products altogether as smart-
phones and tablet computers running
Googles Android software win more fans.
Those dynamics have changed the way
that Wall Street and even parts of Main
Street view Apple. Once regarded as an
indomitable innovator, Apple now looks
vulnerable and perhaps a step behind
Google Inc. and the leading Android disci-
ple, Samsung Electronics Co.
If analysts projections pan out, Apples
earnings fell during the three months that
ended in June, marking the second consecu-
tive quarter of decline. The slump follows a
decade-long streak of earnings growth that
ended at the start of the year. Analysts sur-
veyed by FactSet are expecting, on average,
earnings of $7.34 per share, down from
$9.32 per share a year ago.
Meanwhile, analysts are forecasting little
or no revenue growth for the rst time since
the debut of the iPhone six years ago.
Analysts are expecting $35 billion in rev-
enue for the period, its scal third quarter. It
was $35 billion at the same time last year.
Those would be impressive numbers for
most companies, but the bar has been set
high for Apple since the introduction of its
iPhone triggered an upheaval that has
changed the way people engage with tech-
nology.
Will Apples latest results be latest letdown?
McDonalds predicts tough
year despite new items
NEWYORK McDonalds is mixing up
its menu with healthier, fresher sounding
items such as its chicken McWraps, but not
enough customers are biting.
The worlds biggest hamburger chain on
Monday reported a second-quarter profit
that rose 4 percent but fell short of Wall
Street expectations. It also said July sales
are expected to be relatively flat and
warned of a tough year ahead, given the
heightened competition and rough eco-
nomic conditions around the world.
We dont have as much pricing power,
said CEO Don Thompson, noting that the
company wouldnt be able to easily charge
more for its food without the risk of scar-
ing off customers.
Loeb to sell 40M Yahoo
shares as he leaves board
SAN FRANCISCO Activist investor
Dan Loeb is leaving Yahoos board with a
windfall after a 15-month stint that vindi-
cated his crusade to shake up the long-
slumping company under new leadership.
Yahoo Inc. is spending $1.16 billion to
buy back 40 million of the shares that
Loebs hedge fund, Third Point LLC, began
buying in 2011 around the same time
Yahoo was ushering out Carol Bartz as its
CEO.
Third Point is being paid $29.11 per
share, more than double the average of
$13.77 per share that it paid while accumu-
lating a 5.8 percent stake in Yahoo.

I
did something Sunday I never thought
would happen: I had a golf discussion
with my mom. Alegitimate, thought-
provoking talk about professional golf.
We were watching television and the
highlights of Phil Mickelsons rst British
Open win when my mom pointed out the
crawl at the bottom of the screen.
Did you see that? Mom asked.
When I said I missed it, she said, with the
right amount of amazement, It said
Mickelson birdied four of the nal six
holes!
The fact she knew
who Mickelson was
was impressive
enough, but when
she realized he had
a blazing nish,
that put her over
the top in my
book.
When we gured
out Tiger Woods n-
ished tied for sixth,
mom asked, Why
dont you think
Tiger wins anymore? Do you think its
mental?
Wow. Thats the bombshell of all ques-
tions when it comes to golf. Mom thinks
Woods Im-better-than-you attitude, his
hubris, has been his downfall. She won-
dered if all the prostitutes he was with
contributed to his downfall.

his extramarital affairs were just with nor-

NEWYORK Former National League MVP
Ryan Braun was suspended without pay for the
rest of the season and the postseason Monday,
the rst penalty from baseballs investigation
of players reportedly tied to a Florida clinic
accused of distributing performance-enhancing
drugs.
The Milwaukee Brewers star accepted the 65-
game penalty, 15 games more than the one he
avoided last year when an arbitrator overturned
his positive test for elevated testosterone
because the urine sample had been improperly
handled.
I am not perfect. I realize now that I have
made some mistakes. I am willing to accept the
consequences of those actions, he said in a

SAN FRANCISCO Cornerback Eric
Wright failed his physical with the San
Francisco 49ers, nullifying a trade to bring
him to Northern California from Tampa Bay.
He was subsequently released by the
Buccaneers.
San Francisco coach Jim Harbaugh
declined to say specically what portion of
the physical Wright failed and made just a
brief statement on the sit-
uation.
We dont ever talk
about that, Harbaugh
said Monday. The infor-
mation is he didnt pass
his physical, hes not on
the team.
Thus ends a quirky four-day stretch that
began after the 49ers appeared to have
acquired the former second-round draft pick
from Tampa Bay on Friday in exchange for a
conditional draft pick in 2014.
Shortly thereafter, reports surfaced that
Wright had been arrested a week earlier in
Los Angeles on an unspecied misdemeanor
charge. Its unclear if the 49ers were aware of
Wrights situation when they made the trade.
Wright was arrested in 2012 on felony
DUI charges and was suspended for four
games last season by the NFL for violating
the performance-enhancing drug policy in
his rst season with the Bucs. Wright signed
a ve-year, $35.3 million contract with the
Bucs prior to the 2012 season.

Back to reality: Lincecum
roughed up in loss to Reds
By Janie McCauley
SAN FRANCISCO Bronson
Arroyo pitched a seven-hitter for
his sixth career shutout, beating
Tim Lincecum and the San
Francisco Giants 11-0 Monday
night for his
rst victory at
AT&T Park and
No. 100 with
the Cincinnati
Reds.
Arroyo (9-7)
struck out six
and didnt walk
a batter in his
15th career
complete game, a 108-pitch gem
that ended in 2 hours, 45 minutes.
Derrick Robinson nished it with
a tough catch in deep center.
Devin Mesoraco and Shin-Soo
Choo homered in the second
inning off Lincecum, pitching for
the rst time since his no-hitter at
San Diego.
Jay Bruce also hit a solo homer,
Todd Frazier added a three-run dou-
ble and Robinson, a late addition
to the lineup, had three hits.
Lincecum (5-10) was roughed up
in his rst start since throwing his
rst career no-hitter in a 148-pitch
performance July 13.
The two-time NL Cy Young
Award winner received a rousing
ovation during pregame introduc-
tions, then immediately strug-
gled while pitching on eight
days rest after tossing the 15th
no-hitter in franchise history and
seventh since the club moved
West in 1958.
The Giants were handed their
most lopsided shutout loss since
getting beaten 11-0 by Arizona on
Aug. 27, 2009.
Cincinnati denied Bruce Bochy
his 1,500th career victory as a
manager. He is trying to become
the 21st skipper to reach the mile-
stone. Detroits Jim Leyland and
Cincinnatis Dusty Baker are the
only active managers with more
victories.
Lincecum matched his career
high by allowing three home runs,
the third time hes done it. He was
tagged for eight runs and nine hits
in 3 2-3 innings, hardly the way
the right-hander wanted to perform
after his gem at Petco Park.
Cincinnati opened an 11-game
West Coast trip that takes the Reds
to all three California NL West
cities with an emphatic win
against the defending World Series
champions. San Francisco rallied
from a 2-0 decit in the NL divi-
sion series last fall to stun the
Reds becoming the rst team in
major league history to rally from
three games down in a best-of-ve
series with three straight road
wins.
The teams will play a traditional
doubleheader Tuesday in which the
Reds will wear their Sunday home
uniforms white pants with red
tops as the visiting team and
bat last in the nightcap, a makeup
for a July 4 rainout at Great
American Ball Park.
Choo began the game with a
double and Robinson followed
with a bunt single, then Frazier
doubled three batters later.

The San Mateo National 9-10
Little League baseball All-Stars
know a thing or two about surviv-
ing.
And then thriving.
So, when they arrived in San
Jose on Monday knowing they
needed to win in order to stay alive
in the Division 2 Northern
California Little League tourna-
ment, the boys from San Mateo,
true to form, did not crumble under
the pressure.
Instead, behind some solid
pitching and big hits, San Mateo
beat Fresno 13-3 and continue
with its hopes of being a state
champion.
We bounced back today They
(Fresno) are a very good team,
said San Mateo National manager
David Villar. But today we hit the
ball well.
Well enough that it only took
San Mateo four innings to mercy-
rule Fresno and secure another
game which will take place
Thursday against Rocklin.
Theyre a scrappy bunch,
Villar said. They swing the bat
really well and they play defense
really well. They dont strike out.
They put the ball in play and they
make the other team make plays.
Its a very balanced team. From 1
through 12, theyre all inter-
changeable parts.
On Monday, Nico Button carried
the load for San Mateo from the
mound. He pitched three strong
innings and gave way to Connor
Brady, who got the last three outs
of the game.
At the plate, Jack Yuretich had a
huge day. He accounted for three
hits, including two doubles.
One of the biggest swings
belonged to Kai Lim, though. It
was his bases-loaded triple that
drove in three and got the offen-
sive ball rolling for San Mateo.
Jason Villar had a pair of hits, a
single and a double. His teammate
Tyler Berkson duplicated the feat.
They have a very strong mind-
set, David Villar said. Theyre
very condent. I cant say enough
about how well theyve played
together as a team and the chem-
istry they have. Its a very good
team to coach. Its a fun team to
coach because everyone does what
we ask them to do.
Looking forward to Thursday
against Rocklin, David Villar said
his team is ready to roll.
We have all of our pitching
together, he said, alluding to
Yuretich, San Mateos No. 1
starter. Everyone is available.
Everyone down the line is going
to be ready to battle.

STANFORD American teenag-
er Madison Keys wandered around
the Stanford University campus
wondering what it would have
been like had she chosen school
over tennis.
This would have been her fresh-
man year.
I could be going to college
soon, Keys said. Im pretty
happy where I am.
Keys, one of 11 Americans
ranked in the top 100, beat No. 8
seed Magalena Rybarikova 6-2, 6-
2, in the first round of the
$795,000 Bank of the West
Classic on Monday.
Her likely major? Something
that doesnt have math it, she
said.
Keys, ranked a career-high 44th,
played a typical match in topping
the 39th-ranked Slovakian for the
second time in three career meet-
ings.
Keys recorded four aces and had
three double faults.
She won 70 percent of her rst
serve points. In 40 previous
matches this season, the 18-year-
old phenom averaged 3.8 aces and
1.35 double faults per match while
winning 69.7 percent of her rst-
serve points.

The move to trade for Wright
immediately raised eyebrows after
Harbaughs comments during the
teams June minicamp when he
made it clear he wouldnt accept
players breaking the NFLs policy
on performance-enhancing drugs
for a perceived edge.
Even though Wright was never
officially on the 49ers roster,
Harbaugh emphasized his message
is still the same.
That hasnt changed, he said.
I think our guys do a good job of
playing within the rules.
Harbaugh avoided questions
about 49ers linebacker Ahmad
Brooks legal issues. Brooks
allegedly hit teammate Lamar
Divens in the head with a bottle
multiple times during an alterca-
tion on June 8 but avoided prose-
cution when the Santa Clara dis-
trict attorneys ofce declined to
le charges because of insufcient
evidence.
Brooks has met with team of-
cials regarding the incident but
Harbaugh declined to say what, if
any, discipline the veteran line-
backer will face.
Had conversations (with him)
but not that were going to talk
about out here, Harbaugh said.
Im not publicly discussing what
our conversations have been with
Ahmad or any of our players.
The 49ers held the third day of
training camp practice for rookies
onl y. Veterans report on
Wednesday, one day before the
rst full team workout.
Michael Crabtree, San
Franciscos leading receiver in
2012, wont be among them at
least not on the eld. Crabtree
underwent surgery on his right
Achilles tendon after tearing it
during a practice May 21 and is
still in the early stages of rehabil-
itation.
The 49ers arent ruling out
Crabtree returning at some point
during the season.
I wouldnt categorize it as
ahead of schedule because he is
just starting to move on it,
Harbaugh said. Its just been
healing but it looks great. Thats
from the words of the doctor.
The news on Kyle Williams is
more encouraging. Harbaugh said
he is very optimistic Williams
will be able to practice when the
veterans check in. Williams is
coming back from a knee injury
suffered late last season.
SANFRANCISCO49ERS (11-4-1)
OPENCAMP: July 25
LASTYEAR: 49ers returned to Super Bowl for
rst time in 18 years, chasing sixth champi-
onship, but fell to Baltimore, with second-year
coach Jim Harbaughs team missing multiple
chances from 5-yard line in waning moments.
Unlike last summer, when starting lineups on
both sides of ball remained nearly intact, there
are new faces at prominent positions as two-
time NFC West champions try to defend title in
much-improved division featuring Seattle and
St. Louis.
IMPORTANT ADDITIONS: WR Anquan Boldin, S
Craig Dahl, K Phil Dawson, QB Colt McCoy, CB
Nnamdi Asoumgha.
IMPORTANTLOSSES: QB Alex Smith, S Dashon
Goldson, TE Delanie Walker, K David Akers, WR
Randy Moss.
CAMPNEEDS: Third-year QB Colin Kaepernick
must nd groove with new wideouts in hurry.
Kaepernick, A.J. Jenkins and Ricardo Lockette
began that process with workouts in Atlanta
during offseason. Getting more snaps will cer-
tainly help Kaepernick after he began 2012 as
backup to Alex Smith. Top wideout Michael
Crabtree is sidelined after surgery on torn right
Achilles tendon in May, big blow to Niners. But
they had already acquired Boldin from Ravens
before Crabtree went down, and his role will be
even greater now. Several newcomers join sec-
ondary and must be integrated into system.
EXPECTATIONS: 49ers will count on more con-
sistency from kicking game as Dawson replaces
Akers. Dawson went 29 for 31 last season in
14th year with Browns, making all 13 of
attempts from 40 yards or beyond, including 7
for 7 from 50-plus. Akers missed 13 eld goals in
2012. All-Pro DL Justin Smith returns from par-
tially torn left triceps that required offseason
surgery. He anchors one of leagues top defens-
es past two seasons, aided by stars Patrick Willis,
Aldon Smith, NaVorro Bowman and Carlos
Rogers. With solid lines and big-time playmak-
ers, 49ers look to get that one more victory in
postseason.
SEATTLE SEAHAWKS (11-5)
OPENCAMP: July 25
LASTYEAR: Seahawks were seconds from play-
ing in NFC championship game in season few
expected when rookie Russell Wilson became
starting quarterback. Wilson proved right choice
by coach Pete Carroll, and Seahawks beat
Washington in wild-card round for rst road
playoff win since 1983. Somewhat lost in
Wilsons rise and performance and antics of cor-
nerback Richard Sherman were All-Pro seasons
from running back Marshawn Lynch and safety
Earl Thomas. Seattle had best scoring defense in
NFL.
IMPORTANT ADDITIONS: WR Percy Harvin, DE
Cliff Avril, DE Michael Bennett, DT Tony
McDaniel, CB Antoine Wineld, rookie DT Jesse
Williams, rookie DT Jordan Hill, rookie RB
Christine Michael, QBs Tarvaris Jackson and
Brady Quinn.
IMPORTANTLOSSES: RB/KR Leon Washington,
LB Leroy Hill, QB Matt Flynn, TE Anthony McCoy,
DT Alan Branch, CB Marcus Trufant.
CAMPNEEDS: Improving mediocre pass rush
that could be without sacks leader Chris
Clemons (knee) to start season. It was offseason
priority with additions of Avril, Bennett,
McDaniel, Williams and Hill, coupled with move
of Bruce Irvin to outside linebacker; Irvin is sus-
pended for rst four games for violating per-
formance-enhancing drug policy. Deciding who
will back up Wilson will be another training
camp competition, along with settling guard
positions.
EXPECTATIONS: Many feel Seahawks are in
select group labeled Super Bowl contenders.
New defensive coordinator Dan Quinn will try
and build on what Gus Bradley (now Jaguars
head coach) started, but with more pieces to
play with. Harvins addition to offense that aver-
aged nearly 33 points over nal nine games of
season makes trying to slow down Wilson and
Co. even more terrifying.
ST. LOUISRAMS (7-8-1)
OPENCAMP: July 25
LASTYEAR: Refreshed from one-year coaching
break, Jeff Fisher combined with GM Les Snead
on roster makeover. Franchise shook off worst
ve-year stretch (15 wins) in NFL history, as
leagues youngest team improved from two
wins in 2011, and went 4-1-1 in tough division.
QB Sam Bradford had best statistical season,
aided by strong showing from line. Rookies CB
Janoris Jenkins and DT Michael Brockers made
impact as starters, defense tied for NFL lead
with 52 sacks behind big years from Chris Long
and Robert Quinn, teams rst duo with double-
digit sacks since 2000.
IMPORTANT ADDITIONS: TE Jared Cook, OT
Jake Long, rookie WRs Tavon Austin and
Stedman Bailey, rookie OLB Alec Ogletree.
IMPORTANTLOSSES: RB Steven Jackson, WR
Danny Amendola, S Quintin Mikell, S Craig Dahl,
LB Rocky McIntosh.
CAMPNEEDS: Finding RB combination to
replace Jacksons workhorse contribution
among Daryl Richardson, Isaiah Pead and rookie
Zac Stacy. Develop chemistry between Bradford
and new crop of pass catchers led by Austin.
Fine-tune attack that could feature pass-catch-
ing TEs Cook and Lance Kendricks. Prepare
Ogletree to start alongside teams top two tack-
lers, James Laurinaitis and Jo-Lonn Dumbar. Find
replacements at both safety spots. Develop
chemistry on new-look OL, with Rodger Saffold
moving to right tackle to make room for Long.
EXPECTATIONS: Rams anticipate more growing
pains from roster that has gotten even younger.
Team has no winning seasons since 2003,
appears poised to end drought.
ARIZONACARDINALS (5-11)
OPENCAMP: July 25
LASTYEAR: Got off to surprising 4-0 start, then
lost 11 of last 12 thanks to worst offense in NFL.
Quarterback and line were main culprits. Kevin
Kolb had teams only success at QB, but went
down with season-ending torn cartilage. Unable
to pass or run effectively, Cardinals were blown
out more often than not. Coach Ken
Whisenhunt, who directed team to Super Bowl
in 2008 season, was red, as was general man-
ager Rod Graves.
IMPORTANT ADDITIONS: Coach Bruce Arians,
QB Carson Palmer, RB Rashard Mendenhall,
rookie OG Jonathan Cooper, LB Karlos Dansby,
LB Lorenzo Alexander, LB Jasper Brinkley, rookie
LB Kevin Minter, rookie S Tyrann Mathieu.
IMPORTANTLOSSES: S Adrian Wilson, QB
Kevin Kolb, QB John Skelton, RB Beanie Wells, S
Rashad Johnson, ILB Paris Lenon, S Kerry
Rhodes, OG Adam Snyder, CB William Gay, WR
Early Doucet, RB LaRod Stephens-Howling.
CAMPNEEDS: With camp moved from
Flagstaff to teams home stadium in Glendale,
emphasis will be on getting players comfortable
with new offensive and defensive system
brought by Arians. Plenty of work ahead
between Palmer and primary receivers Larry
Fitzgerald, Andre Roberts, Michael Floyd and
Rob Housler. On defense, with top LB Daryl
Washington suspended for rst six games for
violating leagues substance abuse policy,
adjustments in personnel must be made.
EXPECTATIONS: Arians, NFL Coach of the Year
for work as interim boss in Indianapolis, gets at
age 60 to nally run show, and hes relishing
opportunity. He even brought in longtime
Indianapolis offensive coordinator Tom Moore
as top assistant. Cardinals arent expected to do
much in tough division, but if line can keep
immobile Palmer on his feet, it could be exciting
offense with downeld game Arians loves.

PRESEASON CAMP CAPSULES
Continued from page 11
49ERS
HOUSTON Josh Reddick put
Oakland on top with a two-run
homer in the eighth inning and
the Athletics remained perfect this
season against the Houston Astros
with a 4-3 victory Monday night.
Chris Young hit a solo homer for
the As, who are 10-0 against their
new AL West foes this season and
15-1 all-time. The Astros have
lost six straight overall.
Houston took an early 3-0 lead
thanks in part to Oakland tying a
season high with three errors.
Youngs shot cut the lead to one in
the seventh before Reddicks drive
to right eld off Wesley Wright (0-
4) made it 4-3.
Young also tripled for another
big game in his hometown.
Three of Youngs nine homers
this season have come at Minute
Maid Park, and hes hit eight home
runs with 30 RBIs in 22 career
games in Houston.
Ryan Cook (3-2) pitched a per-
fect seventh for the win and Grant
Balfour did the same in the ninth
for his 26th save. Balfour has
converted his last 44 chances dat-
ing to last season, an Oakland
record.
Chris Carter drove in a run for
Houston and shortstop Jonathan
Villar singled, scored and had a
stolen base in his major league
debut.
Oakland starter Tommy Milone
allowed ve hits and three runs
two earned in six innings.
Dallas Keuchel yielded ve hits
and a run with ve strikeouts in six
innings for Houston.
Justin Maxwell doubled to start
the Houston second and stole sec-
ond base. Maxwell scored and J.D.
Martinez reached on an error by
shortstop Jed Lowrie to make it 1-
0.
Villar got his rst major league
hit with a bunt single in the third.
Villar, who stole 31 bases in
Triple-A this season, quickly
swiped second. Carters single to
center scored Villar to extend the
lead to 2-0.
Carter scored on an error by sec-
ond baseman Grant Green when he
couldnt make the catch on a rou-
tine y.
Josh Donaldson got to second
on a two-base error by Astros third
baseman Matt Dominguez in the
fourth and advanced to third on a
groundout. Keuchel then walked
Derek Norris, but retired the next
two batters to end the threat.
Keuchel struck out the rst two
batters of the fth inning before a
triple by Chris Young. He left
Young stranded when he fanned
Lowrie to end the inning.
Donaldson singled to start the
sixth before a double down the
right-eld line by Nate Freiman.
Reddick drew a walk with one out
to load the bases, and a sacrice y
by Green got Oakland within 3-1.
Keuchel escaped the inning
when he struck out Seth Smith.
NOTES:
The series continues Tuesday
when Houstons top pitching
prospect, Jarred Cosart (1-0), will
be recalled from Triple-A
Oklahoma City to make his sec-
ond major league start against
Jarrod Parker (6-6).
The 23-year-old Cosart took a
no-hitter into the seventh inning
and got the win in his debut
against Tampa Bay just before the
break, allowing two hits and no
runs in eight-plus innings. ...
Home Run Derby winner Yoenis
Cespedes was out for the fourth
straight game because of a sore
left wrist but is feeling better.
Oakland manager Bob Melvin said
Cespedes did a lot of work in the
cage and will take batting practice
Tuesday if he doesnt feel any sore-
ness. Melvin isnt sure if
Cespedes could play Tuesday. ...

opinion: Part of it is Woods is get-
ting older and has battled a number of
leg/knee/Achilles injuries over the
last several years, preceded by the
Thanksgiving Night incident with his
then wife, an SUV and a re hydrant.
Then there is the simple fact the
rest of the PGATour is no longer in
awe of Woods. Its almost as when his
personal life was crumbling around
him, the rest of the players on tour
thought, OK, this guy is human after
all.
Add in the number of young guns
coming up and were inuenced by
Woods and it equals a lot more guys in
contention who truly believe they can
win much like Tiger in his heyday.
Tiger Woods set the bar so high that
now that he is just a good golfer and
no longer extraordinary, people look
at it as a failure.
Take Mickelson, for example.
Sundays win was the fth major of a
hall of fame career, all of them won
since 2004. If Woods never came
along, Mickelson would be the golfer
of his generation, the one lauded and
scrutinized as the best player in the
game.
Woods? Hes won six majors since
2004, although none since that epic
2008 showdown with Rocco Mediate.
So while Lefty will bask in the glory
of winning another major, Woods will
wonder when his next one will come.
All eyes will be on him come PGA
Championship. And once again, he
will be among the favorites to win.
Unlike most of the competition, if
there is anyone expected to win, its
Woods even when he doesnt .
Unless it truly is what mom thinks
it is: golf karma.

Scott Kalush hit his rst profes-
sional home run Friday night for the
Aberdeen IronBirds of the New York-
Penn League. The IronBirds are the
Low-Aafliate of the Baltimore
Orioles.
It took Kalush the Aragon and
UC Davis graduate who was a 39th-
round draft choice of the Orioles in
2012 until his 50th game, in his
123rd professional at-bat to make the
traditional jog around the bases in a
regular-season game.
Kalushs drive to left in the top of
the sixth inning was the IronBirds
only run in a 5-1 loss to Vermont
Friday. It was the rst of only two
hits the IronBirds managed. After get-
ting the day off Saturday, Kalush, a
catcher, was back in the squat during
Sundays 8-3 win over Jamestown.
Although he ofcially went 0 for 2
from the plate, he did manage to drive
in a pair of runs. With the bases
loaded in the top of the fth, Kalush
was hit by a pitch to pick up an RBI.
In the top of the sixth, Kalush drove
in his second run of the game with a
sacrice y.
His three RBIs over the weekend
gives Kalush ve for the season,
which is the same number he had last
year in 36 games.
Kalush is essentially platooning
behind the plate for Aberdeen, along
with Austin Wynns, who has made 20
starts in 35 games. Kalush has made
14 starts for the IronBirds this sea-
son.

LOUNGE
Biogenesis of America, a now-closed
anti-aging clinic.
MLB Commissioner Bud Selig
announced the penalty Monday, citing
Braun for multiple unspecied viola-
tions of baseballs drug program and
labor contract. Braun will miss the
Milwaukee Brewers final 65 games
without pay, costing him about $3 mil-
lion of his $8.5 million salary.
Under the agreement reached by MLB
and the players association the
specics of Brauns admission wont
be made public. The sides also would-
nt say whether this counted as a single
violation or more under baseballs drug
agreement.
We commend Ryan Braun for taking
responsibility for his past actions,
said Rob Manfred, MLBs executive
vice president for economics and
league affairs. We all agree that it is in
the best interests of the game to
resolve this matter. When Ryan
returns, we look forward to him mak-
ing positive contributions to Major
League Baseball, both on and off the
eld.
Union head Michael Weiner said in a
statement: I am deeply gratied to see
Ryan taking this bold step. It vindi-
cates the rights of all players under the
joint drug program. It is good for the
game that Ryan will return soon to
continue his great work both on and off
the eld.
Brauns acceptance of a suspension
marks a 180-degree turnaround from
his deant spring training news con-
ference in Phoenix last year, after his
50-game ban was overturned.
We won, he said then, because the
truth is on my side. The truth is always
relevant, and at the end of the day, the
truth prevailed.
Braun became the latest star tripped
up by baseballs drug rules.
The sport was criticized for allowing
bulked up sluggers to set power records
in the 1990s and only started testing
in 2003. Since then, testing and penal-
ties have become more stringent and
last year San Franciscos Melky
Cabrera was suspended for 50 games,
just weeks after he was voted MVP of
the All-Star game.
Four All-Stars this year have been
linked in media reports to Biogenesis:
Texas outfielder Nelson Cruz, San
Diego shortstop Everth Cabrera,
Oakland pitcher Bartolo Colon and
Detroit shortstop Jhonny Peralta.
BRAUN
Timeline of events around
RyanBrauns drugsuspension
October 2011 Braun tests positive for elevated

testosterone levels. The result is not made public.
November 2011 Braun wins National League
MVP award after hitting 33 homers, stealing 33 bases
and hitting .332.
December 2011 ESPN reveals Brauns positive
test from two months ago. The Brewers slugger faces
a 50-game suspension, but is appealing it. His repre-
sentatives say there are highly unusual circum-
stances surrounding this case which will support
Ryans complete innocence.
February 2012 Brauns suspension is overturned
by baseball arbitrator Shyam Das, the rst time a
baseball player successfully challenges a drug-relat-
ed penalty in a grievance. During the hearings, ques-
tions are raised about the chain of custody for
Brauns urine sample. It was collected on Saturday,
Oct. 1, but not sent to the lab until Monday. Braun
reports to spring training.
March2012 After the sample collector releases a
statement defending his actions and saying that he
never tampered with the sample, Brauns lawyer criti-
cizes the statement by Dino Laurenzi Jr., saying that
Braun was properly vindicated.
September 2012 Braun nishes the season after
leading the NL with 41 homers. He hits .319 and
drives in 112 runs.
February 2013 Brauns name appears in records
from the Biogenesis of America LLC clinic, a defunct
business near Miami that allegedly provided per-
formance-enhancing substances to several players.
The original report about the clinic was published by
Miami New Times, and Brauns tie to the clinic was
rst reported by Yahoo Sports.
June 2013 Braun goes on the disabled list
because of a persistent sore right thumb.
July 2013 After missing 26 games, Braun returns,
but is ineffective in three games before accepting a
suspension for the rest of the season. He nishes his
2013 year with nine homers, four steals and a .298
average in 61 games.

Krzyzewski begins quest for third straight gold
LAS VEGAS Mike Krzyzewski thought he was done
with USABasketball. He said he was done, too.
After helping Team USAwin two straight Olympic gold
medals, there appeared little left for him to accomplish.
After the team won in London last summer, Krzyzewski
prepared to walk away.
It didnt take long for Jerry Colangelo to know that
Krzyzewski wasnt as resolute in his stance as he made it
seem. Just a couple of weeks after their triumph in
London, the two reconvened in Springeld, Mass., for the
Hall of Fame induction ceremony. And thats when
Colangelo, the managing director for USA Basketball,
knew there was still a chance.
He was having withdrawal already, Colangelo said.
He started talking about the future. No commitments, but
it was there.
I didnt have to plan it, but it was there. My attitude
was, I know what he said. I know what hes also said to me
privately. Im going to give him all the time he needs and
when the timing is right, well have that sit-down again.
Usually when I sit down with him, theres a good result.
And it happened again and it was a positive result and Im
thankful for that.
Ten months after Colangelo rst saw that gleam return
to Krzyzewskis eye, and two months after the coach made
his return ofcial, the two men are back to work at a four-
day camp that began Monday.

Have you ever
attended a funeral
or memorial service
and felt ill-at-ease,
uncomfortable or
awkward when
talking to the family
of the deceased? Have you ever stumbled
through your words and condolences
because you just didnt know what to say or
how to say it? Have you even decided to not
approach the family for fear of saying the
wrong thing or making a fool of yourself? If
so you are not alone. Many people in this
situation want to provide some kind of
comfort to the immediate family, but just
dont have the verbal tools to do so in an
assuring manner.
Learning Funeral Etiquette can be
useful. Using the right words at the right
time is an appropriate way to show that you
care, and in situations like this can be of
great help when provided correctly.
Standard condolences such as I am sorry
for your loss have become routine and
generic. A personalized phrase can be
welcomed such as John touched many
lives or I will miss John. DO NOT ask
the cause of death, offer advice or make
comments that would diminish the
importance of the loss such as Oh, youre
young and can marry again.
Other ways to demonstrate your support
include: 1. Listening. The family may feel
the need to express their anxiety, and giving
them that opportunity can be therapeutic; 2.
An embrace. This can show that you care
without the need for words; 3. Offering your
services. This shows the family that you are
willing to give extra time for them: Please
let me know if there is anything I can do to
help (be prepared to act if needed).
Even if you dont feel confident in
approaching the family there are other ways
to show that you care: 1. Attending the
funeral and signing the Memorial Book will
show the family that you took the time to be
there in support; 2. Dressing appropriately
for the funeral will demonstrate your efforts
to prepare for this special occasion (dark
colors are no longer a requisite for funerals,
but dressing in a coat, tie, dress or other
attire that youd wear to any special event
are considered a way of showing you care);
3. In certain cases friends are invited to
stand up and offer BRIEF personal feelings.
Prior to the funeral write a few key notes
and reflections which will help you organize
your thoughts. Even if there is no
opportunity to speak before a group you
may have a chance to offer your thoughts to
the family following the ceremony; 4. A
personalized card or note will help you
arrange your words better and can be kept
by the family. If you dont have their
mailing address you can send your envelope
to the funeral home and they will forward it
to the next of kin; 5. Providing flowers is a
long time tradition, or making a charitable
donation in the deceaseds memory will give
the family a strong sense of your regards; 6.
If appropriate a brief phone call can show
your immediate concern, but generally this
should be avoided to give the family the
privacy they may need.
If you ever wish to discuss cremation,
funeral matters or want to make pre-
planning arrangements please feel free to

MIAMI Alawsuit seeking $12
million from Los Angeles Dodgers
outelder Yasiel Puig says he and
his mother lied to Cuban authori-
ties about a plan to smuggle the
player out of the country.
The suit filed in Miami by
Miguel Angel Corbacho Daudinot
lists Puig and his mother Maritza
Valdes Gonzalez as defendants.
Corbacho Daudinot is serving a
seven-year sentence of prolonged
detention and torture, which he
alleges was caused by Puig and
Gonzalez saying he was trying to
hatch a plan to smuggle Puig out
of Cuba.
Corbacho Daudinot was convict-
ed in 2010.
Puig attempted to defect several
times before signing with the
Dodgers last year. The $12 million
Corbacho Daudinot seeks is equal
to the signing bonus Puig received
in his $42 million, seven-year
deal.
The suit was led in Miami in
large part because Puig and his
mother maintain their permanent
residence there, according to court
documents.
The Dodgers have said the team
will have no comment about the
allegations.
Corbacho Daudinot said Puig
and his mother conspired with ...
the Cuban government to tor-
tiously, intentionally, willfully,
wantonly, maliciously, knowing-
l y, recklessly and negligently
cause his prison sentence, some of
which was served under what he
described as inhumane conditions.
Hes serving the remainder of his
sentence at home with many
restrictions including limited trav-
el and monthly reports with peni-
tentiary ofcers.
Corbacho Daudinot said he once
lent an associate $100 in Cuban
convertible pesos, which that
associate gave to Puig. Corbacho
Daudinot said he never spoke with
Puig, and never heard of him again
until his arrest on human trafck-
ing charge.
Corbacho Daudinot said Puig
and his mother testied that he
offered to take the ballplayer out
of Cuba and to the Dominican
Republic. After he was convicted,
Corbacho Daudinot appealed to no
avail.
Corbacho Daudinot is para-
noid, he cannot sleep and he does
not enjoy life. He lives with the
constant awareness that he has no
rights, that anything he does can
be construed as evidence of a
crime, and that his very life can be
taken from him at any time,
according to the lawsuit.
Before his defection, Puig rarely
played outside Cuba, but he
excelled with the Cuban team
Cienfuegos during the 2010-11
season, batting .330 with 17
homers, 47 RBIs and a .430 on-
base percentage in just 327 at-bats
while mostly playing center eld.
The 6-foot-3 slugger sat out a
year for disciplinary reasons pos-
sibly related to his attempts to
defect.
Suit alleges that Puig
lied about smuggling

RIO DE JANEIRO A wrong
turn sent a humble Fiat carrying
Pope Francis into the thick of a
frenzied Rio crowd Monday, in his
first minutes back in South
America since becoming pontiff.
It was a nightmare for security
officials, but for the clearly
delighted pope just another
opportunity to connect.
Ecstatic throngs forced his
motorcade to repeatedly come to a
standstill, weeks after violent
protests against the government
paralyzed parts of Brazil. Francis
driver had turned into the wrong
side of a boulevard at one point,
missing lanes that had been
cleared. Other parts of the popes
route to the city center werent
lined with fencing, giving the
throngs more chances to get
close, with uniformed police
nowhere in sight to act as crowd
control.
The three dozen visible Vatican
and Brazilian plainclothes securi-
ty ofcials struggled to keep the
crowds at bay. Francis, however,
not only looked calm but got
even closer to the people. He
rolled down his back-seat win-
dow, waved to the crowd and
touched those who reached inside.
He kissed a baby a woman handed
to him.
His secretary was afraid,
papal spokesman the Rev.
Federico Lombardi said. But the
pope was happy.
Pope delights Brazilian crowds, frustrate security
By Maggie Michael

CAIRO The family of ousted
President Mohammed Morsi furi-
ously denounced the military
Monday, accusing it of kidnap-
ping him, and European diplo-
mats urged that Egypts rst freely
elected leader be released after
being held incommunicado for
nearly three weeks since being
deposed by the army.
The fate of Morsi, who has been
held without charge, has become a
focus of the political battle
between his Muslim Brotherhood
and the new military-backed gov-
ernment.
The Brotherhood has tried to use
Morsis detention to rally the
country to its side, hoping to
restore its badly damaged popular-
i t y. The interim government, in
turn, appears in part to be using it
to pressure his supporters into
backing down from their protests
demanding his reinstatement.
Those protests again turned
violent Monday, with clashes
breaking out between Morsi sup-
porters and opponents near
Cairos Tahrir Square, and between
pro-Morsi demonstrators and
police in a city on the capitals
northern edge. At least four peo-
ple were killed.
So far, however, the outcry over
Morsis detention seems to have
gained little traction beyond the
presidents supporters, without
bringing significantly greater
numbers to its ongoing rallies
around the country.
Millions of Egyptians lled the
streets starting June 30, demand-
ing the presidents removal after a
year in ofce and leading to the
coup that ousted him. Anti-
Brotherhood sentiment remains
strong, further fueled by protests
that block traffic in congested
city centers and by media that
have kept a staunchly anti-Morsi
line.

WASHINGTON Hair loss is one of
chemotherapys most despised side effects,
not because of vanity but because it fuels
stigma revealing to the world an illness
that many would rather keep private.
Now U.S. researchers are about to put an
experimental hair-preserving treatment to
a rigorous test: To see if strapping on a cap
so cold it numbs the scalp during
chemotherapy really works well enough to
be used widely in this country, as it is in
Europe and Canada.
The rst time Miriam Lipton had breast
cancer, her thick locks fell out two weeks
after starting chemotherapy. But when the
disease struck again, she used a cold cap
during treatment and kept much of her hair,
making her ght for survival seem a bit
easier.
I didnt necessarily want to walk around
the grocery store answering questions
about my cancer, recalled Lipton, 45, of
San Francisco. If you look OK on the out-
side, it can help you feel, OK, this is man-
ageable, I can get through this.
Near-freezing temperatures are supposed
to reduce blood ow in the scalp, making it
harder for cancer-ghting drugs to reach
and harm hair follicles. But while several
types of cold caps are sold around the
world, the Food and Drug Administration
hasnt approved their use in the U.S.
Scalp cooling is an idea thats been
around for decades, but it never caught on
here in part because of a concern: Could the
cold prevent chemotherapy from reaching
any stray cancer cells lurking in the scalp?
Do they work and are they safe? Those
are the two big holes. We just dont know,
said American Cancer Society spokes-
woman Kimberly Stump-Sutliff, an oncolo-
gy nurse who said studies abroad havent
settled those questions. We need to know.
To Dr. Hope Rugo of the University of
California, San Francisco, the impact of
hair loss has been overlooked, even belit-
tled, by health providers. Shes had
patients delay crucial treatment to avoid it,
and others whose businesses suffered when
clients saw they were sick and shied away.
With more people surviving cancer, we
need to make this experience as tolerable as
possible, so theres the least baggage at
the end, Rugo said.
Quite frankly, its the rst or second
question out of most patients mouths when
I tell them I recommend chemotherapy. Its
not, Is this going to cure me? Its, Am I
going to lose my hair? adds Dr. Susan
Melin of North Carolinas Wake Forest
Baptist Medical Center.
Later this summer, Rugo and Melin,
along with researchers at a few other hospi-
tals in New York and California, will begin
enrolling 110 early stage breast cancer
patients in a study of the DigniCap brand of
scalp cooling. The tight-tting, insulated
cap is attached to a cooling machine to stay
around a shivery 41 degrees as patients
undergo chemo. Participants hair will be
photographed for experts to assess, and
theyll be compared with a small group of
similarly ill patients who get chemo alone.
Lipton was among 20 U.S. patients who
pilot-tested the DigniCap in 2011, most of
whom kept more than half of their hair.
Liptons thinned quite a bit at the crown,
where the cap didnt t snugly. But because
her bangs and surrounding hair remained,
the mother of two covered the thinning
with a headband, not a wig. The side effect:
Pain and a headache as the cold set in.
It wasnt perfect, but it was easier, said
Lipton, whos healthy today.
I felt normal much more
quickly.
If the larger study is suc-
cessful, Swedens Dignitana
AB plans to seek FDA
approval to market the med-
ical device in the U.S. The
move could open the way for
other brands and insurance
coverage.
Clearly theres demand: Despite the lack
of FDAapproval, a growing number of U.S.
patients are renting a similar product,
called Penguin Cold Caps, from a British
company for $455 a month. Patients haul a
collection of caps to chemo sessions on
dry ice, or store them in special freezers
provided by about 50 hospitals. Its delib-
erately separate from doctors and nurses
care typically, patients bring a friend
to help them switch caps every 20 to 30
minutes when one loses its chill.
I know Im sick, but I dont want to
look it, said Vanessa Thomas, 57, of
Baltimore, who is using the Penguin caps
at the recommendation of her doctor at
MedStar Harbor Hospital. Halfway
through her breast cancer treatment,
Thomas says her hair feels only a little
thinner.
The FDA declined comment on the
Penguin caps.
Beyond breast cancer, advocates say the
caps may be useful with other solid tumors
as well.
Whats the evidence behind scalp cool-
ing? Arecent review by oncologists in the
Netherlands found numerous overseas
studies conclude scalp cooling can work
but its far from clear which patients are
most likely to benefit, even how cold the
scalp should be. Thats because most of
the research so far has been from observa-
tional studies that cant provide proof. But
it seems harder to save hair with higher
doses and certain types of chemo.
Researchers at New Yorks Weill Cornell
Breast Center reported at a recent meeting
of the American Society for Clinical
Oncology that among just over a dozen
Penguin cap users tracked so far, one lost
enough hair to use a wig.
Cold caps tested to prevent hair loss during chemo
While several types of cold caps are sold around the world,the Food and Drug Administration
hasnt approved their use in the U.S.

Obama enrolling star
power to promote health care
WASHINGTON President
Barack Obama is enrolling some
star power to promote health care.
Obama stopped by a private
White House meeting Monday with
celebrities including singer
Jennifer Hudson and actors Amy
Poehler, Michael Cera and Kal
Penn.
The White House says the artists
expressed interest in helping spread
the word about the health insurance
marketplaces opening Oct. 1.
The White House says Obama told
the artists they could help reach
young uninsured Americans who
will be vital to his signature laws
success. Insurers need healthy
young customers to help offset the
costs of older, sicker consumers.
Alarming rise in children
injured by falling TVs
CHICAGO Falling televisions
sent nearly 200,000 U.S. children
to the emergency room over 20
years and the injury rate has climbed
substantially for these sometimes
deadly accidents, a study found.
Doctors and safety experts say
better awareness is needed about the
dangers especially the risks of
putting heavier, older model TVsets
on top of dressers and other furni-
ture young children may try to
climb on.
Most injuries are in kids under 5;
head and neck injuries including
concussions are the most common.
This is a problem that is increas-
ing at an alarming rate, said lead
author Dr. Gary Smith, a pediatric
emergency specialist and president
of the Child Injury Prevention
Alliance in Columbus, Ohio.
Health briefs
about how the implementation of
the new act requirements will affect
their businesses. The forum, she
said, was a great way to assist these
businesses with a smooth transi-
tion.
Kate Comfort Harr, HIP
Housings executive director, was
pleased to learn at the forum her
San Mateo nonprot of less than
20 employees will be eligible for a
tax credit. According to the non-
prot Small Business Majoritys
research, there are more than
300,000 Californian businesses
eligible for tax credits for offering
health insurance.
Theres so much misinforma-
tion and it was tremendously help-
ful, Harr said. I have lots of
friends with really small business-
es, so I took notes for them. Im
left with a curiosity for how
exchanges will work and want to
get online because there seems to
be a log of stuff available to learn
about.
On Oct. 1, enrollment for
Covered California will be avail-
able and the program will serve the
largest population of insured citi-
zens in the country. Those without
health insurance will be able to buy
it through Covered California.
Michael Lujan is the director of
sales and marketing for Covered
California and said he sees many
benets to the implementation for
the uninsured.
Its a great experiment to get
everyone covered, Lujan said at
the forum. People take better care
of themselves when they go to the
doctor.
Rhea Aguinaldo, the North
California Outreach Manager for
Small Business Majority, said cost
is the number one issue as to why
small businesses havent offered
health insurance. She said its
important that Covered California
try to control costs.
Jimmy Sigona of the family-
owned produce store Sigonas
Farmers Market in Redwood City
and Palo Alto said he attended to
learn the impact of the changes on
business. His company employs
80 people.
We dont know the exact costs,
Sigona said. It could be $70,000
in expenses and this [forum] was
helpful. Were still trying to under-
stand what the actual costs will be.
Hal Anjo, Lyngso Garden
Materials human resources director,
came to the event to stay up to
speed on the latest health care
information since its important to
his eld. His company has fewer
than 50 employees and has a quali-
ty health care program.
Others brought up concerns
about physician shortages because
of the additional Americans added
to the health care system.
Solutions included video confer-
encing appointments and expand-
ing the roles of nurse practitioners.
Entrepreneurs are leveraging
technology, Barbara A. Vohryzek,
deputy director for Small Business
at the Governors Office of
Business and Economic
Development, said at the forum.
Were always on the cutting edge
of innovation in California.
The Affordable Health Care Act
passed its way through Congress in
2010. Rates for Covered California
will be announced on Aug. 1. In
2014, the penalty for not enrolling
in health insurance will be 1 per-
cent of annual income or $95,
whichever is greater.
The Redwood City-San Mateo
County Chamber of Commerce co-
hosted the event.

Horsley said he resents the
jurys statement that the county did-
nt paint an accurate picture of its
nances for voters faced with meas-
ures T, U and X in the June 5, 2012
election and Measure Ain the Nov.
6, 2012 election.
It is casting aspersions that are
unfair and unfounded, Horsley said.
The crux of the jurys report enti-
tled An inconvenient truth about
the countys so-called structural
decit is ERAF, the money left
after schools meet their funding
requirements. San Mateo County is
one of only three counties statewide
that have extra funds and, while the
money has come every scal year
since 2004, Maltbie said it cannot
be considered anything beyond one-
time amounts.
For instance, Maltbie said, the
governors new school funding for-
mula may mean the county loses
$20 million to $30 million in
ERAF.
The jury, though, said ERAF
should be included because it is
about 5 percent of the total budget,
was used to balance the budget for
ve scal years between 2009 and
2013 and paid for routine items like
adding positions and maintaining
the property tax system.
If the county actually counted
ERAF in its budget calculations,
there would be no actual decit
because the extra amount is actually
more than the structural decit, the
jury reported. The decrease in unre-
stricted funds from year to year is
not because of the structural decit
but extraordinary expenditures
like $57 million to buy the Circle
Star ofce buildings and new jail
land, the jury report states.
The jury recommends the Board of
Supervisors report all anticipated
revenue, including ERAF, and
inform the public the most current
assessment of it decit or surplus
when giving voters revenue meas-
ures. Had those procedures been in
place previously, voters would have
learned of the countys $26 million
surplus in scal 2012 prior to pass-
ing measures T and A, according to
the report.
Measure T placed a 2.5 percent
rental car tax in the unincorporated
areas. Measure Aincreased the coun-
tys sales tax by a half-cent for the
next 10 years. The Board of
Supervisors is currently in the midst
of tentatively allocating the $64
million annually and on Tuesday
will consider multi-million dollar
requests by private Seton Medical
Center in Daly City and SamTrans.
The report released yesterday is
the latest aimed at the county and its
nances; the last questioned the
countys unfunded pension liability
and concluded the debt is much
greater than presented. Horsley
thinks the focus on government
spending is a sign of the distrustful
times and that, while the criticism
keeps the county on its toes, it must
also be taken with a grain of salt.
Maltbie, who said he is not bash-
ful about questioning the grand
jurys methods, takes the skepti-
cism future in calling its report
completely untrue. Maltbie said
the county and public cannot know
what information the jury uses
because its proceedings are done in
secret and their members unvetted
publicly.
Regardless, the grand jury reports
carry no legal weight but recipients
are required to respond in writing
within 90 days.

ATLANTA Another reason to eat
breakfast: Skipping it may increase your
chances of a heart attack.
A study of older men found those who
regularly skipped breakfast had a 27 per-
cent higher risk of a heart attack than
those who ate a morning meal. Theres no
reason why the results wouldnt apply to
other people, too, the Harvard researchers
said.
Other studies have suggested a link
between breakfast and obesity, high blood
pressure, diabetes and other health prob-
lems seen as precursors to heart problems.
But no studies looked at long-term risk
of heart attack, said Eric Rimm, one of
the study authors at the Harvard School of
Public Health.
Why would skipping breakfast be a
heart attack risk?
Experts arent certain, but heres what
they think: People who dont eat breakfast
are more likely to be hungrier later in the
day and eat larger meals. Those meals
mean the body must process a larger
amount of calories in a shorter amount of
time. That can spike sugar levels in the
blood and perhaps lead to clogged arteries.
But is a stack of syrupy pancakes,
greasy
eggs and
lots of
bacon really
better than eating
nothing?
The researchers did not ask
what the study participants ate for break-
fast, and were not prepared to pass judg-
ment on whether a fatty, sugary breakfast
is better than no breakfast at all.
Other experts agreed that its hard to
say.
We
d o n t
k n o w
w h e t h e r
its the tim-
ing or content of
breakfast thats
important. Its probably
both, said Andrew Odegaard, a University
of Minnesota researcher who has studied a
link between skipping breakfast and
health problems like obesity and high
blood pressure.
Generally, people who eat breakfast
tend to eat a healthier diet, he added.
The new research was released Monday
by the journal Circulation. It was an
observational study, so its not designed
to prove a cause and effect. But when done
well, such studies can reveal important
health risks.
The researchers surveyed nearly 27,000
men about their eating habits in 1992.
About 13 percent of them said they regu-
larly skipped breakfast. They all were
educated health professionals - like den-
tists and veterinarians - and were at least
45.
Over the next 16 years, 1,527 suffered
fatal or non-fatal heart attacks, including
171 who had said they regularly skipped
breakfast.
In other words, over 7 percent of the
men who skipped breakfast had heart
attacks, compared to nearly 6 percent of
those who ate breakfast.
The researchers calculated the increased
risk at 27 percent, taking into account
other factors like smoking, drinking,
diet and health problems like high blood
pressure and obesity.
As many as 18 percent of U.S. adults
regularly skip breakfast, according to
federal estimates. So the study could be
important news for many, Rimm said.
Its a really simple message, he said.
Breakfast is an important meal.
Skipping breakfast may increase heart attack risk

governance to elected ofcials.
Back in 2005, then-Belmont mayor
Dave Warden sent a letter to each
mayor of the cities on the JPA that
urged them to consider putting only
elected ofcials on the board so that
they could make decisions regarding
policy and the naming of the executive
director.
The SBWMA is also known as
RethinkWaste and its members include
Atherton, Belmont, Burlingame, East
Palo Alto, Foster City, Hillsborough,
Menlo Park, Redwood City, San
Carlos, San Mateo, San Mateo County
and the West Bay Sanitary District.
Only three cities at that time
responded positively, some were even
negative, Belmont Councilwoman
Coralin Feierbach wrote the Daily
Journal in an email yesterday. Most
of the other mayors didnt even
respond. Finally now its coming to
pass and Im very glad it is.
Feierbach said the SBWMA should
be governed like the South Bayside
Systems Authority is with elected of-
cials. The SBSAis a JPAthat deals with
sewer issues for its south San Mateo
County members.
Overseeing taxpayer money should
be the job of elected officials, the
Belmont City Council urged years ago.
The ability of the SBWMA to com-
mit public funds should be the respon-
sibility of those of us who are elected
to represent the citizens of our respec-
tive communities, not appointed staff
as is the current structure, Warden
wrote to mayors back in 2005.
Today, both the county Board of
Supervisors and Belmont City Council
are expected to vote in favor of amend-
ing the JPAas Warden requested nearly
eight years ago. If they do, that would
be the sixth and seventh agencies to
agree to change the boards makeup.
San Carlos officials have offered
their own slightly different amend-
ment.
To change the joint powers agree-
ment, eight of the 12 agencies must
agree, which they are expected to do
considering the Blue Ribbon Task
Force recommendation for the change.
But switching the countys solid
waste board from senior city staff
members to elected ofcials has no
demonstrable advantage, according to
a civil grand jury report released just
last month.
The SBWMA negotiates waste rates
for its member agencies and oversees
the Shoreway Environmental Center in
San Carlos, which provides recycling.
The civil grand jury concluded the
SBWMAwould not benet signicant-
ly by doing so and that elected ofcials
already have sufficient influence on
major decisions such as contracts and
rate increases.
Last year, RethinkWaste suffered a
bit of a hiccup when one of its former
employees accused its executive direc-
tor of playing favoritism when award-
ing some contracts. The allegation
prompted an internal investigation
that also caused current state Sen. Jerry
Hill, D-San Mateo, to bring back the
idea of changing the boards makeup.
He said last year that elected ofcials
would be more accountable to the pub-
lic.
The Belmont City Council meets
7:30 p.m. tonight, City Hall, 1 Twin
Pines Lane, Belmont.
BOARD
ment period, many parents and students
brought up a desire to seek legal action
against ETS to release the scores.
Mills parent Paul Seto, a former
Millbrae councilman, said he thinks
ETS will not take the students appeals
seriously until a lawsuit is led. Seto
hopes the district decides to le a suit as
soon as today.
Otherwise, Seto and other parents will
likely seek legal action on their own.
Parent Ken Wong said parents and stu-
dents should have been able to get
involved back in May.
What are you going to do? Wong
said. ETS seems to hold all the cards.
One parent cited the 2011 Oaklands
Skyline High School case against ETS
that included testing irregularities. The
ETS conducted the statistical evaluation
and determined that only 30 students had
to retest, and not the entire school.
The only difference I can see between
our school and Skylines is a socioeco-
nomic difference, the parent said.
The crowd erupted in applause and
cheers when recent graduate Grant
Murphy said the test is more than just
the $90 fee.
Its not about the money, its about
our futures, Murphy said. It seems like
a rip-off.
Recent graduate Jessica Liang, who
will attend Yale University in the fall,
said signing up for a retake could hurt
their case if they took it to court. Liang
cited a 2008 case of AP score invalida-
tions at Trabuco Hills High School in
Southern California, in which all of the
students decided to sign up for retests
and the decision to invalidate the previ-
ous scores held.
Elizabeth McManus, deputy superin-
tendent of business services, represent-
ed the district at the meeting, as other
district ofcials were away at a confer-
ence.
McManus said the district became
aware of situation about seating irregu-
larities mid-May. The invalidations
were not warranted and the district didnt
expect such a harsh penalty, she said.
McManus recommended students
retake the test, but take an alternate
track as well that involves legal action.
The district legal counsel Lozano
Smith Attorneys said the district had a
teleconference with College Board on
Friday and yesterday.
College Board is resolute so far in
their decision, their counsel said at the
meeting. They believe a thorough
investigation was done and consider the
original test to be totally invalid. We
suggested statistical analysis to see if
seating irregularities made a difference
and they said they dont do statistical
analysis.
The College Board has identied 44
colleges for all students whose scores
were invalidated, the district stated. The
districts lawyers said the College Board
is offering to work with students to
expedite the retest and a write a letter to
any college students apply to that the
retest is not the fault of the student.
State Sen. Leland Yee, D-San
Mateo/San Francisco spoke at the meet-
ing and said his ofce has contacted
ETS. He is interested in this particular
issue and there is something to be said
about fairness, he said.
Students were taking the exam under
rules they were given, Yee said. Right
now we are at a point where I dont have
anything more we can say. It seems as if
the College Board has had different
results and conclusions depending on
what area.
Anew Change.org petition has a little
more than 1,000 signatures from sup-
porters asking the Board of Trustees of
the College Board to reconsider the can-
cellation of the schools AP scores.
Students, teachers and parents have con-
tinued posting on whyweneedourscores-
back.com to explain their reasons for
needing the test scores.
Overall, more than 4 million AP
Exams were administered in May 2013,
with fewer than 6,000 exams invalidat-
ed due to issues such testing irregulari-
ties, security problems and lost/miss-
ing answer sheets, ETS stated.
For now, the College Board is still
saying APtest takers need to sign up for
Aug. 5-12 retests by tomorrow, July 24.
There are no alternate retesting dates. A
refund is another option. The scores
were supposed to be released July 5.
Another community meeting is set for
tomorrow night at Mills, the location is
to be determined.

so in other areas. So, keep your mind on making
money, and dont worry about other things, today.
aQUariUs (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Dont be reluctant
to discard any old, unworkable methods in favor
of newer and better procedures. This might be
one of those days when it pays to switch horses in
midstream.
PisCEs (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Someone you treated
very considerately in the past has been very eager
to repay you, and today might bring that chance.
Accept this persons attempt at reciprocation with a
glad heart and open arms.
ariEs (March 21-April 19) -- It would behoove you
to socialize with some progressive thinkers today.
Youll easily recognize clever ideas when you hear
them, and youll know exactly how to put them to use.
TaUrUs (April 20-May 20) -- Be on the lookout for
some innovative ideas, especially some that may apply
to an area that has been causing you concern. Make
your move quickly, however; time may not be your ally.
GEmini (May 21-June 20) -- A person of foreign
heritage or one born in a distant place is likely to
play a constructive role in your affairs. Be alert, so
you can take full advantage of this persons help.
CanCEr (June 21-July 22) -- This could be an
exciting day, especially regarding a joint endeavor
of some kind. An extraordinary happening might
develop that youll want to be a part of.

DO YOU HAVE KNEE PAIN?
Experience relief with advanced, non-surgical treatments.
Do you wake up with knee
pain?
Does knee pain limit your
level of activity?
Has your doctor
recommended surgery?
Do you have pain when
walking up or down stairs?
Have you run out of options
to relieve your pain?
If you answered yes to
any of these questions,
you are a candidate
for our non-invasive
treatment program.
Meet Dr. Brian Mitchell
Millions of individuals give up their
active lifestyle to knee pain because
they feel they are too young for major
surgery. I am here to tell you theres an
effective and FDA approved alternative
to surgery. If you suffer from any de-
gree of knee pain, I invite you to regain
control of your life by visiting our state
of the art facility.
How Do We Treat Knee Pain?
We use a non-invasive, multi-disciplin-
ary approach to provide complete care
and dramatically improve patients
results. We customize our treatment
programs for every individual. This
may include visco-supplementation to
lubricate the joint, individualized reha-
bilitation to strengthen the muscles
surrounding the injury, or bracing for
stabilization and support.
What Is visco-
supplementation?
Visco-supplementation, also
known as joint therapy, supple-
ments the knee with a natural
occurring substance called hyal-
uronic acid that is often deficient
in arthritic knees. This lubricates
the knee joint to reduce friction
between the bones of the knee to
provide significant pain relief.
Why is individualized reha-
bilitation Important?
The muscles surrounding the
injury can become weak and stiff
making it difficult to do everyday
tasks. Individualized rehabilita-
tion reduces inflammation and
increases range of motion, flex-
ibility and strength.
Will I feel better right away?
Most patients feel relief in a matter
of weeks and can go back to their
daily activities.
Will insurance cover
the cost?
Yes, most insurance providers and
Medicare will cover treatment upon
approval of your benets.
Are the treatments
successful?
Weve treated thousands of patients
and over 90% have experienced
signicant pain relief and regained
mobility.
How will I know if this
is right for me?
If youre suffering from knee pain,
your rst step is an evaluation with
Dr. Brian Mitchell our Board Certi-
ed Physical Medicine and Rehabili-
tation doctor.
What are patients saying?
I arrived to my rst appointment in a wheelchair because I couldnt bear any weight on my right
leg. The physician and therapists worked together to create a plan specically for me. I quickly
progressed from a wheelchair, to a walker, to a cane, to full weight on my leg. The treatments and
one-on-one rehabilitation gave me my life back. Diana V., Huntington Beach, CA

What Is visco-
supplementation?
Visco-supplementation, also
known as joint therapy, supple-
ments the knee with a natural
occurring substance called hyal-
uronic acid that is often deficient
in arthritic knees. This lubricates
the knee joint to reduce friction
between the bones of the knee to
provide significant pain relief.
Why is individualized reha-
bilitation Important?
The muscles surrounding the
injury can become weak and stiff
making it difficult to do everyday
tasks. Individualized rehabilita-
tion reduces inflammation and
increases range of motion, flex-
ibility and strength.
Will I feel better right away?
Most patients feel relief in a matter
of weeks and can go back to their
daily activities.
Will insurance cover
the cost?
Yes, most insurance providers and
Medicare will cover treatment upon
approval of your benets.
Are the treatments
successful?
Weve treated thousands of patients
and over 90% have experienced
signicant pain relief and regained
mobility.
How will I know if this
is right for me?
If youre suffering from knee pain,
your rst step is an evaluation with
Dr. Brian Mitchell our Board Certi-
ed Physical Medicine and Rehabili-
tation doctor.
What are patients saying?
I arrived to my rst appointment in a wheelchair because I couldnt bear any weight on my right
leg. The physician and therapists worked together to create a plan specically for me. I quickly
progressed from a wheelchair, to a walker, to a cane, to full weight on my leg. The treatments and
one-on-one rehabilitation gave me my life back. Diana V., Huntington Beach, CA
