WASHINGTON Beset by growing
evidence of patient delays and cover-
ups, embattled Veterans Affairs
Secretary Eric Shinseki resigned from
President Barack Obamas Cabinet
Friday, taking the blame for what he
decried as a lack of integrity in the
sprawling health care system for the
nations military veterans.
Obama, under mounting pressure to
act from fellow Democrats who are
worried about political fallout in the
fall elections, praised the retired four-
star general and said he accepted his

Man gets probation
for trying to throw
his wife off bridge
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The Marin County businessman who tried throwing his
wife off the San Mateo-Hayward Bridge after crashing his
car into a guardrail was sentenced to ve years supervised
probation and ordered to attend counsel-
i ng.
Prosecutors sought two years prison
for Xavier Jarrell McClinton, 48, but
Judge Jonathan Karesh imposed credit of
337 days served. He also ordered
McClinton to attend 104 hours of domes-
tic violence counseling, which can be
attended in his home county, and obey all
directions of his psychiatrist.
Thats the real key, said District
Attorney Steve Wagstaffe. Its very
important that this man stay on his medication.
McClintons wife of eight years, who was left with a
severe gash on her cheek from the struggle, asked Karesh
not to send her husband to prison.
As part of the sentence, McClinton was also ordered not
to harass his wife.
Although his ofce sought prison time, Wagstaffe called
Kareshs decision a reasonable alternative.
McClinton never claimed to be insane at the time of the
Dec. 13 incident but apparently began acting strange two
weeks prior, believing people were trying to break into his
house to harm him and the couples children.
Officers cleared
in fatal shooting

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Two Daly City police ofcers who killed a mentally ill
Pacica man that stabbed one in March were justied and, in
fact, showed enormous restraint in not shooting him ear-
lier, according to the district attorney.
Errol H. T. Chang , a 34-year-old diagnosed schizo-
phrenic, thrust a knife blade toward Busalacchis face and
stabbed him in the arm which prompted the two ofcers to
shoot approximately eight times at his chest. Chang died
and Busalacchi underwent two surgeries.
The District Attorneys Office investigated Changs
March 18 death and on Friday announced the case was justi-
ed and closed. In a May 27 letter to Daly City Police Chief

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
Jim Gallagher, a gifted newspaperman
whose skill at building relationships was
enormously inuential in the establishment
and flowering of the Peninsulas public
transportation system, died at his Redwood
City home Thursday.
Gallagher, who retired as deputy general
manager of the San Mateo County Transit
District in 2004, was 83 and died of
leukemia.
Gallagher grew up on the Monterey
Peninsula and spent 20 years working for
daily newspapers, including stints as a
sports writer and city editor of the Redwood
City Tribune.
Multi-talented, quick on his feet and well-
liked by his staff, Gallaghers rst love was
journalism and he knew how to spot a story
and run with it.
Working with him was fantastic, said
photographer Reg McGovern. You could
call in something and hed sit at his type-
writer and turn out a masterful job. If you
came up with a suggestion, he wasnt a
doubting Thomas. Hed go with it.
Longtime friend George Gananian, who
met Gallagher while working in his fathers
engraving shop, recalled coming to work
one Saturday to nd only two employees
had come to work in the editorial depart-
ment Gallagher and reporter John Kane.
They got the whole paper newspaper out
between the two of them, Gananian said.
They were almost gleeful about it.
In 1976, Gallagher became the edgling
San Mateo County Transit Districts fth
employee when General Manager John
Mauro hired him as public information of-
cer, and then promoted him two times the
same year. During his 28-year SamTrans
career, Gallagher was involved with key ini-
tiatives to expand public transit in two cor-
ridors, the extension of BART south from
Daly City and the transition of the Southern
Pacic commute service to public owner-
ship.
John Ward, a former San Mateo County
supervisors who served on the SamTrans
board, said Gallagher could be counted on to
script something appropriate when board
members needed to make a presentation.
Born in Fresno, Gallaghers formative
years were spent in Santa Cruz, where his
family lived for a few years at the light-
house, where his grandfather was superin-
tendent. As a teen, Gallaghers interest in
track and eld blossomed and he constructed
pole vault pits in the sandy areas around his
grandfathers ranch.
During his second year at Stockton
College, Gallagher transferred to Stanford
University and earned a letter as a member of
the 440-relay team. He married Nancy Fick
in 1952, reporting a few months later for
U.S. Marine Corps officer candidates
school, entering training in Quantico,
Virginia, in 1953. Gallagher subsequently
served in Japan and returned to the U.S. in
1955.
The Gallaghers have three children: Rob,
Kevin and Kathleen, and four grandchildren
Jennifer Gallagher and Turner, Ramsey and
Landon Baty. Gallagher is also survived by
a sister, Linda Vaughn of the Seattle,
Washington, area.
Services are pending.
Jim Gallagher, newspaperman
and transit pioneer, dies at 83

Alove of hiking and the outdoors is
part of what ultimately ended up earn-
ing Redwood Citys Mike Heard as the
national volunteer of the year by the
U.S. Forest Service.
The Los Padres National Forest of-
cials announced that the U.S. Forest
Service had selected Heard, 60, a long-
time Monterey Ranger District and
Ventana Wilderness Alliance (VWA)
volunteer, in late April. The recogni-
tion coincides with the 50th
Anniversary of the 1964 Wilderness
Act.
Im somewhat humbled and a little
bit intimidated, Heard said. Its a
fairly high ranking since its from
folks at the Forest Service. ... I did
work on a big project, getting 20
miles of a trail done, but thats not
something that a person does alone
theres a lot of moving parts to any-
thing like that.
Heard, originally from Oklahama,
moved to Redwood City in 2008.
Before that, in the late 90s, Heard
noticed the trail conditions in the Big
Sur area kept getting worse and worse.
I tried to volunteer with the Forest
Service, but that didnt work out, he
said. In 2000, I found Ventana
Wilderness Alliance.
Now, Heard repairs and maintains
remote wilderness trails overgrown by
brush or damaged by res, erosion and
debris slides. He also coordinated and
led extensive on-the-ground trail work
in the Cone Peak area of the Ventana
Wilderness. Over the last two years, he
volunteered nearly 3,700 hours of his
time to project work in the wilderness.
The volunteer work has become full
time for him; he decided to take a sab-
batical from his work as a software
engineer in 2008, but hasnt gone
back.
When I started doing it I really
loved hiking down in the Ventana
Wilderness (in Santa Cruz), its one of
the few national parks that has land
that goes all the way to coast. I really
like some of the mountain areas where
you have ocean views up and down the
coast.
As trails got worse, he decided to
volunteer to help x the situation.
Theres a lot of satisfaction in
working and doing a good job in
rebuilding a trail, he said. The big
payoff is being out there in that place.
I sometimes have to remind myself
thats the big payoff.
In addition to his trail work, Heard
also completed the necessary paper-
work to finalize the National
Environmental Policy Act process for
a trail reroute project. He recruited pro-
fessional botanists to conduct a volun-
teer survey of the trail project area,
gathering pertinent wildlife data and
ensuring the project was completed on
schedule, ofcials say. Mike was also
able to assist with capturing critical
data accomplishments for volunteer
reporting, Recreation Site Inventory
and the 10 Year Wilderness
Stewardship Challenge.
Mike exemplies what it means to
be a dedicated volunteer, said Ken
Heffner, Los Padres interim forest
supervisor. Mikes had an enormous
impact on our wilderness trail system,
and this national recognition validates
the importance of his work to the U.S.
Forest Service.
Overall, Heard is very thankful
Ventana and the Forest Service sup-
ported his work. The VWAwill hold its
Annual Gathering 11 a.m.-4 p.m. June
14 at Toro Park in Salinas to celebrate
the 50th Anniversary of the
Wilderness Act. Heards award will be
presented to him during this event. For

The May 19 attack at Oakland High
School was caught on surveillance
footage that shows the ofcer wheel-
ing the student down a hallway, lean-
ing down toward him and then winding
up and striking him three times before
pushing him to the ground. The ofcer
appears ready to strike the student
another time before another officer
grabs his arm and pushes him away.
The district identied the ofcer as
Marchell Mitchell and said on
Thursday he was red immediately after
the incident.

BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE
Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg and
his wife Priscilla Chan announced through
his social media site Friday a $120 million
donation to Bay Area schools.
Zuckerberg and Chan are distributing the
money to various schools to support high
quality public schools for underserved com-
munities through their Startup: Education
fund over the next ve years.
The rst $5 million of the fund will go to
several mid-Peninsula school districts,
including Redwood City and Ravenswood in
East Palo Alto, along with the San
Francisco Unied School District.
In the Facebook post on Zuckerbergs
page Friday morning, he wrote, The funds
were committing today will be used to sup-
port new district and charter schools that
give students more high quality choices for
their education, to encourage innovation in
the classroom, train a new generation of
education leaders and support student devel-
opment.
He said that despite economic prosperity
in most of the Bay Area there are many
schools lacking resources.
Improving public education in our coun-
try and our community is something
Priscilla and I really care about, he wrote.
Education is something worth investing in
and something we care deeply about.
Redwood City School District spokes-
woman Naomi Hunter said the K-8 district
has been working with Startup: Education
for the past few months ahead of Friday
mornings announcement.
She said the details about how the money
will be distributed are still being worked
out, but its great news.
She said based on conversations with
Zuckerberg and his organization, the fund-
ing will go toward closing the digital
divide and supporting parents in use of tech-
nology in education.
Ravenswood City School District
spokesman Rolando Bonilla said the dis-
trict has a strong relationship with the
social media behemoth.
Last summer, Facebook donated 100 com-
puters to eighth-graders at East Palo Altos
Cesar Chavez Academy.
He called the latest donation a tremen-
dous opportunity and validation of the hard
work happening throughout the district.
He said Facebook has been a great neigh-
bor to district schools and is a vital part of
the Palo Alto area community.
SFUSD Superintendent Richard Carranza
issued a statement Friday about the Startup:
Education donation, which he said would
bring in $1 million to early elementary lit-
eracy programs and close the digital divide
in low-income communities.
We are thrilled that Mark and Priscilla
have stepped up to support our vision by
focusing on the needs of students in San
Franciscos most underserved communi-
ties, he said.
Zuckerberg also gave a $100 million
donation to public schools in Newark, N.J.,
about four years ago.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
Athree-strikes parolee convicted of stalk-
ing a former girlfriend and eventually ring a
gun near her Redwood City home escaped a
potential life sentence when a judge struck
one of his prior convictions and imposed 11
years in prison.
Kirk Vernell Moore, 46, was looking at 25
years to life in prison after pleading no con-
test to the felony charges of stalking and dis-
charging a rearm. Moore has seven felony
convictions and has been to prison six times.
Instead, Judge Joseph Bergeron opted for
11 years and four months in prison with cred-
it of 1,800 days earned while in custody on
$65,000 bail.
Moore took the plea deal just as jury trial
was to begin in the incidents which spanned
between Nov. 14, 2011, and Dec. 12, 2011.
Moore, of East Palo Alto, reportedly dated
his victim for a few months before she ended
the relationship but he
continued calling, some-
times as often as 40 times
a day. In one message, he
reportedly threatened to
kill her and her family and
one December night was
spotted pacing back and
forth in front of the home
with a silver handgun.
The next day he
allegedly had owers delivered with a note
asking to see her, which she ignored, and
later that day appeared at the home. The
womans brother and girlfriend, who were
sitting outside the residence, spotted him
and the brother warned him to grow up
and leave. Moore red a shot in the air from
the silver handgun and responding police
found him hiding nearby. Aloaded gun reg-
istered to his mother was found in the open
bed of a truck near him.

T
he First Sunday in June has always been a significant day for
me. Growing up in San Bruno, the date marked the annual
Lions Club Posy Parade. Whether I participated as a 4 year old on
my tricycle dressed as Evil Kneivel, or marked the first Sunday
in June with my parents spending all hours of the evening prior
decorating a float with the Orloffs, my aunts and uncles, and my
cousins as we prepped our costumes for this monumental day. As
I got older, I helped my grandfather and Uncle BBQ at the Park
after or volunteered to drive a local dignitary in my convertible
when I was sixteen. My grandma even marked this day as her
favorite day every year of my Grandpas Mayoral career because
she got to ride the Firetruck.
I think what I love most about this day is the tradition that still
stands today in this community. The Posy Parade is not only the
one of the oldest parades west of the Mississippi, it is essentially
what San Bruno stands for. For me, nothing says The City with
a Heart more than locals and visitors alike lining the streets of El
Camino and San Mateo Avenue, cheering on their local children
and Princess Court, and coming together to celebrate what makes
this place so great; the people.
This Sunday, send us a wave as we drive a local politician at the
start of the Parade. My grandma will be there and my Uncles will
be driving and all of our favorite San Bruno council-members and
local children will be marching proudly, representing a city that
truly does exude heart.

ISLAMABAD Pakistani police said
Friday that they have arrested four more
people in connection with the killing of a
pregnant woman who was beaten and stoned
to death by her family for marrying without
their permission.
The police arrested the four men late
Thursday from their village in the Nankana
district, said Nayab Haider Rizvi, the police
spokesman in Lahore.
Police have already arrested the womans
father and say he has confessed to the
killing. They are looking for two of her
brothers.
The 25 year old was on her way to court
with her husband on Tuesday when they were
attacked by a group of her relatives who
objected to her marriage. During the assault
she was hit on the head with bricks from a
nearby construction site and died.
The shocking case has focused attention
on violence against women in Pakistan as
well as the countrys legal system.
Hundreds of women in conservative,
Muslim-majority Pakistan are murdered
each year in so-called honor killings by
their husbands or male relatives over
alleged sexual transgressions seen as bring-
ing shame to the family. Activists say those
who commit such crimes are often acquitted
or given light sentences.
In a strange twist, authorities said
Thursday that the womans husband,
Mohammad Iqbal, was accused of killing his
rst wife in 2009. But authorities and the
mans relatives said the case was dropped
after he was forgiven by the womans fami-
l y.

BANGKOK In his rst address to the
public since taking control of Thailand in a
bloodless coup, the head of the military
junta said it could take more than a year for
new elections to be held because peace and
reforms must be achieved rst.
Army commander Gen. Prayuth Chan-ocha
repeated warnings against protests or resist-
ance to the armys May 22 takeover, saying
they would slow the process of bringing
back happiness to the Thai people.
A return to democracy will not happen if
there are still protests without a true under-
standing of democracy, he said in his
speech Friday.
The speech was meant to reassure Thais
that the army has a plan to keep the country
stable and restore democracy.
But it was unlikely to win favor among
supporters of the ousted civilian govern-
ment because it laid out broadly the same
program advocated by anti-government pro-
testers who demonstrated aggressively for
seven months to try to topple it, clashing
with police and occupying government
ofces.
Prayuth said it would take the junta, called
the National Council for Peace and Order, at
least two to three months to achieve recon-
ciliation in the deeply divided country, then
take about a year to write a new constitution
and set up an interim government. Only then
could elections be held, he said.
Give us time to solve the problems for
you. Then the soldiers will step back to look
at Thailand from afar, he said.
Thai junta: Elections could take more than one year
Medicare ban on sex
reassignment surgery lifted
SAN FRANCISCO Medicare can no
longer automatically deny coverage
requests for sex reassignment surgeries, a
federal board ruled Friday in a groundbreak-
ing decision that recognizes the procedures
are medically necessary for some people
who dont identify with their biological
sex.
Ruling in favor of a 74-year-old transgen-
der Army veteran whose request to have
Medicare pay for her genital reconstruction
was denied two years ago, a U.S.
Department of Health and Human Services
review board said there was no justication
for a three-decade-old agency rule excluding
such surgeries from treatments covered by
the national health program for the elderly
and disabled.
Sometimes I am asked arent I too old to
have surgery. My answer is how old is too
old? the veteran, Denee Mallon, of
Albuquerque, New Mexico, said in an email
interview before the board issued its deci-
sion. When people ask if I am too old, it
feels like they are implying that its a
waste of money to operate at my age. But I
could have an active life ahead of me for
another 20 years. And I want to spend those
years in congruence and not distress.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Hillary Rodham
Clinton dismisses her critics and defends
her handling of the deadly 2012 terrorist
attack in Benghazi, Libya, in her new book,
offering fellow Democrats a guide for how to
talk about the fraught issue through the
2016 presidential race.
The former secretary of states Hard
Choices is a rebuke to Republicans who
have seized upon the Sept. 11, 2012, terror-
ist attack that killed U.S. Ambassador Chris
Stevens and three other Americans.
Should Clinton run for president in 2016,
her four years as secretary of state and the
Benghazi attack in particular are certain to
be the subject of driving criticism from
Republicans. Shes already trying to blunt
the issue.
Republicans have accused the Obama
administration of
stonewalling congres-
sional investigators and
misleading the public
about the nature of the
attack in the weeks before
the presidential election.
Republicans used the
attack to try to undermine
President Barack
Obamas re-election and,
now, to tarnish the still-uncertain Clinton
bid to replace him in early 2017.
Those who exploit this tragedy over and
over as a political tool minimize the sacri-
fice of those who served our country,
Clinton writes in a 34-page chapter,
obtained by Politico.
Clinton spokesman Nick Merrill said that
until the book is released, theres nothing
to say. And once its released, it will speak
for itself. The book comes out June 10.

Taking action for
seniors in Redwood City
Editor,
As a senior who has lived in
Redwood City most of my adult life, I
have a growing concern about the
indirect displacement of seniors and
others who are being priced out by
skyrocketing rents and inadequate
choices for remaining in our commu-
nity. The Redwood City Council and
Planning Commission will be
reviewing the citys plan for the
housing element 7 p.m. Tuesday,
June 3. This plan will directly inu-
ence how our housing needs are met
for the next eight years. The draft for
the housing element has just been
released and one thing it does not
include is a proposal for any kind of
rent stabilization policies that might
protect residents from further escalat-
ing rents.
I urge Redwood City residents who
are similarly concerned to come the
meeting on Tuesday or send coun-
cilmembers and planning commis-
sioners a note. It is important for
you to add your voice eight years
is too long to live with a plan that
does not address your concerns.

Call for more affordable
housing in Redwood City
Editor,
I am upset that 60 percent of the
workers in Redwood City come from
outside the area and have to commute
several hours a day. All the new hous-
ing only offers a few units to low-
income individuals and families.
Small businesses cannot keep good
employees and this effects my hair-
dresser, my cleaners and my favorite
restaurants. I hope more people will
attend the next City Council meeting
7 p.m. June 3 and join me in urging
the inclusion of housing for all
income levels in future develop-
ments.

Garratt for
Superior Court judge
Editor,
Part of the job of being a peace
ofcer entails spending a signicant
amount of time in court. This has
provided us the opportunity to work
with both Superior Court judge candi-
dates Stephanie Garratt and Ray
Buenaventura. Garratt is a former dis-
trict attorney and current commis-
sioner. Buenaventura is a defense
attorney.
Based on firsthand experience, law
enforcement in San Mateo County
chose to unanimously support
Garratt. In fact, Buenaventura is not
supported by a single active law
enforcement officer in California.
Garratt is supported by 24 of 25 cur-
rent judges, all 52 members of the
District Attorneys Office and
PORAC (parent organization that
represents every law enforcement
officer in San Mateo County).
Please join us in electing Garratt
for Superior Court judge.

Letters to the editor
Not just politics
L
ife isnt all political maneuvering, policy papers,
or Twitter ghts with utter strangers over the lat-
est Sacramento scandal. That might be hard to
believe coming from someone who writes about political
topics, but its true. I have a life outside of politics and I
suspect you do to.
Scrolling through my Twitter feed, visiting online
groups and chat rooms, and reading the comment sections
of blogs is a depressing chore. The ignorance displayed in
an era when we have virtually all of humanitys knowledge
in our pockets, and the venomous hate spewed by all sides
against anyone who is not in 100 percent agreement, is
hard to take.
Thats why its so great that summer is nally here!
Theres plenty to do that doesnt involve snarky com-
ments, hateful exchanges or public posturing. Instead, we
can just enjoy ourselves and our beautiful Bay Area.
On hot days, the smell of baking chaparral on our hill-
sides instantly brings back memories of summers long
gone. Hiking through the
Manzanita, Ceanothus and
Coyote Brush is something Ive
enjoyed ever since junior high
(middle school, for you young-
sters) summer school science
classes at Tierra Linda in San
Carlos. Most kids hated being
there, but I thought they were
great.
We hiked in the hills, learned
about plants and animals and
chased down sunbathing lizards
and snakes. Better yet, we went
coastside and splashed through
tidepools, marveling at the sea stars, anemones, urchins
and awesomely cool nudibranchs. Abig thank you to sci-
ence teacher Hal Strode, who put up with busloads of
screaming and squirrelly junior high students. I have no
idea how he did it.
The best part is, thanks to the San Mateo County park
system, anyone can still do all of that now. San Bruno
Mountain offers more than 2,300 acres of rugged land-
scape, hiking trails and outstanding views while
Fitzgerald Marine Reserve in Moss Beach has the rocky
tidepools lled with marine life. Moreover, there are plen-
ty of other parks and open spaces that highlight our
diverse county.
Summer means outdoor music too. One could go to
Bottle Rock in Napa, or Outside Lands in San Francisco,
but why do that when there is so much music that is fun,
free and local? The biggest, and in my mind best, outdoor
concert series is Music on the Square in Redwood City.
Every Friday evening throughout the summer, 1,500 or
more people turn out in front of the imposing historic
courthouse to party down with bands playing all styles of
music. Alternatively, for a slightly more sedate scene, try
the Sunday afternoon summer music series in Belmont and
Burlingame.
Who can forget county fairs? While diminished from its
former glory, the San Mateo County Fair still brings old-
fashioned, family fun to the Peninsula. Now held in early
June, the fair features 4-H animals, racing pigs, a concert
series, vendors of oddities and a large carnival fun zone.
Many of the vendors have been coming for years and set
up in the same location, including Hot Dog On AStick
with its workers clad in 60s throwback pillbox hats and
hot pants. Add in the deep-fried Oreos and Snickers Bars
and Im there!
Attending the San Mateo County Fair does something
else interesting as well. It brings together people and
families that dont encounter each other on a daily basis.
Whether gawking at lambs and piglets or screaming in
terror on crazy carnival rides, youll be next to a good
cross section of our county. Rich techies mingle on a peer
basis with fast-food workers, something that wouldnt
otherwise occur. It gives everyone, no matter who they
are, a chance to see how the other half lives.
I dont want to give the impression Im abandoning
politics or no longer advocating for honesty, integrity
and accountability both locally and in Sacramento. Far
from it! This weekend Ill be walking door to door on
behalf of candidates who will work for liberty, freedom
and a government that helps its citizens rather than hin-
ders them.
Nonetheless, its good to take time off, clear our heads
and remember the reason many of us are passionate about
politics is that we want a better life for our families,
neighbors and friends. If we abandon them for purely
political pursuits, what would be the point?
So, what better time is there to refresh, rethink and
reload than summer in San Mateo County?

Big movers

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK The stock market
closed out May mostly higher Friday,
sending two out of the three major U.S.
indexes to record highs.
Trading was uneven, and indexes
moved between small gains and losses
for most of the day. Alate push higher
left the Dow Jones industrial average
and Standard & Poors 500 at all-time
highs, but just barely.
May was the best month for
investors since February. The S&P
rose 2.1 percent for the month, while
the Dow rose 0.8 percent and the
Nasdaq rose 3.1 percent.
This market may have been choppy
earlier in the year, but the trend is
higher, said Karyn Cavanaugh, a mar-
ket strategist with Voya Investment
Management, formerly known as ING
Investment Management.
The Dow rose 18.43 points, or 0.1
percent, to close at 16,717.17, less
than two points above its previous
record high set on May 13.
The S&P 500 index rose 3.54
points, or 0.2 percent, to 1,923.57,
also closing at a record. The only
index to fall was the Nasdaq compos-
ite, which ended down 5.33 points, or
0.1 percent, to 4,242.62.
On Friday, investors had two some-
what disappointing reports on the
U.S. consumer.
The Commerce Department said con-
sumer spending unexpectedly fell 0.1
percent in April, the rst drop in that
indicator in a year. Economists expect
the drop to be temporary, however.
Consumer spending jumped 1 percent
in March.
It is obvious that after an unseason-
ably colder January and February, con-
sumers came out with a vengeance in
March, Chris Christopher, an econo-
mist at IHS Global Insight, wrote in a
note to clients. So, Aprils poor
showing on the spending front is pay-
back for a strong March.
In a separate report, the University
of Michigans consumer sentiment
index fell more than analysts were
expecting. The index slipped to 81.9
in May from 84.9 in April.
Economists had expected 82.8.
Key economic data comes out next
week, including the May jobs report
on Friday. Economists expect the U.S.
economy created 220,000 jobs in
May, and the unemployment rate fell
to 6.3 percent, according to FactSet, a
financial information provider. The
European Central Bank will also have
its interest rate policy meeting that
day.
Among stocks, Lions Gate
Entertainment was one of the biggest
decliners Friday. The movie studio slid
$3.40, or 12 percent, to $26.13 after
reporting a prot of 35 cents per share,
a 70 percent drop from the year before
and well below what analysts had
expected. Lions Gates movies include
the The Hunger Games series.
Sunglasses retailer Pacic Sunwear
dropped 52 cents, or 18 percent, to
$2.42. The company warned investors
that it would report a two-cent loss this
quarter, not the two-cent prot that
analysts had expected.
The yield on the 10-year Treasury
note was little changed at 2.47 per-
cent. Bond yields are the near their
lows for the year thanks to strong
demand from foreign and U.S. buyers.
If we were in a normal bond market,
these yields would signal weakness in
the U.S. economy, said Randy
Frederick, managing director of trad-
ing and derivatives at Charles Schwab.
But I think whats going on is more
of a temporary phenomenon.
Dow, S&P close out May at record highs
It is obvious that after an unseasonably
colder January and February, consumers came
out with a vengeance in March. ... So, Aprils poor
showing on the spending front is payback for a strong March.

AMSTERDAM As Google bowed to a
European court ruling to consider users
claims to remove embarrassing search
results, the company took the rst step
toward preventing any more such punishing
decisions acknowledging it has an image
problem in Europe.
The company was stunned in May when a
court said it would have to accept
Europeans right to be forgotten online
and eld their requests to delete links to per-
sonal information in search results. It
opened the doors to such applications on
Friday, and took the opportunity to offer a
new, humbler message to European authori-
ties.
I wish wed been more involved in a real
debate in Europe, Google CEO Larry Page
said in remarks published by the Financial
Times Friday. Thats one of the things
weve taken from this, that were starting
the process of really going and talking to
people.
Some would say Pages realization comes
not a moment too soon.
The company, which since its early days
has put a premium on keeping a positive
image, has taken a beating in Europe in
recent months. Its public relations machine
seemed to run completely off the rails in
May, when the European Court of Justice
enshrined the right to be forgotten a
concept Google had said amounted to cen-
sorship and which it had fought to under-
mine.
Criticism of Googles dominance in
search it enjoys a 90 percent market share
in Europe reached a fever pitch this year,
with competing search engines and major
publishers attacking the company, and even
consumer rights groups piling on.
Politicians, perhaps smelling a shift in
public attitude, began openly using the
company as a punching bag. Shortly before
European elections, German economic
affairs minister Sigmar Gabriel criticized
the company for its tax avoidance, privacy
policies, and dominance, and suggested it
might need to be broken up.
And in a development that should deeply
concern a company whose motto is Dont
Be Evil, some European online freedoms
groups are now identifying it as public
enemy number one.
That has boosted the case for the
European Commission, the EUs executive,
to demand Google change the way it dis-
plays its search results to allow for greater
competition. If the two cant reach a com-
promise deal, Google could face nes worth
billions of dollars, as Microsoft did in the
2000s.
Anti-Google sentiment used to be an
edge phenomenon, said Hans de Zwart of
Bits of Freedom, a Dutch digital rights
group. Now its slowly moving toward the
core, he said. More and more people are
feeling this.
Google faces up to image problem in Europe

Valeant Pharmaceuticals International has
sweetened its offer to buy Botox maker
Allergan for the second time this week.
The Canadian drugmaker said Friday it will
now offer $72 and a portion of its stock for
each Allergan share. Thats up from an offer of
$58.30 and a portion of stock per share that
Valeant extended on Wednesday.
The latest bid could be worth more than $53
billion, based on Thursdays closing price for
U.S.-traded shares of Valeant. But its contin-
gent on Allergan engaging in a prompt,
good-faith negotiation of a merger agree-
ment, Valeant said.
Shares in Allergan, based in Irvine,
California, jumped nearly 6 percent Friday,
while Valeant shares added 1.5 percent.
Earlier this month, Allergan rejected an
offer of nearly $46 billion, saying it under-
valued the company. On Wednesday, Valeant
increased its initial bid, throwing in a contin-
gent value right worth up to $25 per share,
based on future sales of a potential eye treat-
ment.
As part of Fridays offer, Pershing Square
Capital Management, Allergans largest
shareholder, agreed to receive no cash if the
deal goes through. That amounts to forfeiting
up to $600 million in value to other Allergan
shareholders, said Bill Ackman.

MOUNTAIN VIEW About four years
ago, the Google team trying to develop cars
driven by computers not people con-
cluded that sooner than later, the technolo-
gy would be ready for the masses. There was
one big problem: No state had even consid-
ered whether driverless cars should be legal.
And yet this week, Google said it wants to
give Californians access to a small eet of
prototypes it will make without a steering
wheel or pedals.
The plan is possible because, by this time
next year, driverless cars will be legal in the
tech giants home state.
And for that, Google can thank Google,
and an unorthodox lobbying campaign to
shape the road rules of the future in car-
obsessed California and maybe even the
rest of the nation that began with a game-
changing conversation in Las Vegas.
The campaign was based on a principle
that businesses rarely embrace: ask for reg-
ulation.
The journey to a law in California began
in January 2011 at the Consumer
Electronics Show in Las Vegas, where
Nevada legislator-turned-lobbyist David
Goldwater began chatting up Anthony
Levandowski, one of the self-driving car
projects leaders. When talk drifted to the
legal hurdles, Goldwater suggested that
rather than entering Californias potential-
ly bruising political process, Google
should start small.
Here, in neighboring Nevada, he said,
where the Legislature famously has an
impulse to regulate lightly.
It made sense to Google, which hired
Goldwater.
The good thing about laws is if they
dont exist and you want one or if they
exist and you dont like them you can
change them, Levandowski told students at
the University of California, Berkeley in
December. And so in Nevada, we did our
rst bill.
Up to that point, Google had quietly sent
early versions of the car, with a safety driv-
er behind the wheel, more than 100,000
miles in California. Eventually, govern-
ment would catch up, just as stop signs
began appearing well after cars rolled onto
Americas roads a century ago.
How Google got states to legalize driverless cars
U.S. consumer spending
down 0.1 percent in April
WASHINGTON U.S. consumers cut
back on spending in April for the rst time
in a year, taking an unexpected pause after a
big jump during the previous month. The
results, however, are unlikely to derail an
expected spring rebound in the economy.
Consumer spending, which accounts for
70 percent of overall economic activity,
fell 0.1 percent in April, the Commerce
Department said Friday. The drop was the
rst in 12 months. But it followed a 1 per-
cent surge in spending in March, which
marked the biggest increase in more than
four years.
It is obvious that after an unseasonably
colder January and February consumers
came out with a vengeance in March, Chris
Christopher, an economist at IHS Global
Insight, said in a note to clients. So,
Aprils poor showing on the spending front
is payback for a strong March.
The latest figure reflects reductions in
durable goods purchases such as autos and in
services such as heating bills. While disap-
pointed, analysts say the results dont
change the broader upward trajectory of the
economy and predict consumer demand to
bounce back in May.
An improving job market should support
stronger spending in coming months,
Jennifer Lee, senior economist at BMO
Capital Markets, wrote in a research note.

Miamis Dwyane Wade drives to the basket for two points during the Heats big win over
Indiana in Game 6 of the NBAEasternConference nals.With the win, Miami eliminates the
Paces and moves on to the NBAFinals.
By Tim Reynolds
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MIAMI For the entirety of the regular
season, the supremacy of the Miami Heat in
the Eastern Conference was brought into
serious question by the Indiana Pacers.
Then came the playoffs.
And the question was answered emphat-
ically.
The Heat became the third franchise in
NBAhistory to reach the title series in four
consecutive seasons, a laugher of a confer-
ence-title nale getting them there again
Friday night. LeBron James and Chris Bosh
each scored 25 points, and Miami eliminat-
ed the Pacers for the third straight year with
a 117-92 romp in Game 6 of the East cham-
pionship series.
Im blessed. Very blessed. Very hum-
bled, James said. And we wont take this
opportunity for granted. Its an unbeliev-
able franchise, its an unbelievable group.
And we know we still have work to do, but
we wont take this for granted. Were going
to four straight Finals and we will never take
this for granted.
Dwyane Wade and Rashard Lewis each
scored 13 points for Miami, which trailed 9-
2 before ripping off 54 of the next 75

San Benito has always had Carlmonts
number in Central Coast Section play. And
nobody knows that better than former Scots
pitcher Jerrica Castagno.
Carlmont squares of with San Benito for
the CCS Division I championship at San
Jose PAL Stadium Saturday at 3 p.m., as the
Scots look to capture their rst title since
2004.
Castagno was the winning pitcher almost
10 years ago to the day, as the Scots defeat-
ed Leland 3-1 for their seventh all-time CCS
crown. She red a one-hitter on that swelter-
ing hot May 29, 2004 afternoon, and actu-
ally came within one out of punctuating her
high school career with a perfect game, but
lost it on an error followed by a hit to
break up the no-hitter with two outs in
the seventh inning.
Its losing the perfect streak of CCS titles
that bugs Castagno more though. After
being called up from the frosh-soph ranks at
the end of her freshman year of 2001, the
Scots won CCS championships in 01, 02
and 04.
To go out on our senior year with a win,
making it three out of four (CCS titles), you
really cant complain, Castagno said. It
would have been nice to be four out of four,
but you cant have it all.
The team that prevented her clean sweep
was none other than San Benito, as the
Haybalers prevailed 1-0 in the CCS
Division I seminals to eliminate Carlmont
in Castagnos junior season of 2003.
It was the first time San Benito and
Carlmont ever met in the postseason. Since

Mike Ciardella has been coaching basket-
ball for more than 30 years, starting in
1982 as an assistant with the Oceana boys
varsity team. Other than his 12 years as the
athletic director at Sacred Heart Prep,
Ciardella has been involved with coaching
basketball at various levels and in various
capacities since then.
Next year, however, he will return as the
head man for the rst time in more than a
decade when he takes over the Hillsdale
girls varsity team for the 2014-15 season.
I kind of got the itch to do it (run a pro-
gram again), Ciardella said. This is pretty
much going to be it. I dont know how much
longer Ill go (this time). Maybe another
three to ve years.
Its not as if Ciardella has been away from
the game, however. He
has served as an assistant
coach at numerous stops
over the years, including
last season when he was
an assistant with the
Mills girls squad under
head coach Dave Matsu.
Before the Mills gig,
Ciardella was co-head
coach at Kehillah Jewish
School in Palo Alto. From 2009 to 2012, he
was an assistant at Notre Dame de Namur
University and, from 1997 to 2001, he was
co-coach for the Sacred Heart Prep boys
squad.

Oklahoma Baptist a team that includes
three former San Mateo County players
was eliminated from the Avista-NAIAWorld
Series in Lewiston, Idaho Wednesday with a
4-3 loss in 11 innings to Oklahoma
Wesleyan.
Bisons right-hander Julian Merryweather
took the loss after entering the game as a
reliever in the ninth inning. Aformer Serra
pitcher and Skyline College transfer,
Merryweather was the Bisons ace starting
pitcher this season. Wesleyan broke a 3-3
tie in the 11th inning against the senior
Merryweather when designated hitter Wi l l
Price doubled home pinch runner John
Davenport.
Merryweather emerged from the bullpen
in the ninth inning in an attempt to close
out a 3-2 lead to advance the Bisons to
Thursdays championship games. But with
inheriting the tying run on second base,
Merryweather surrendered a one-out double
to Garret Easton, tying the game and forc-
ing extra innings.
Julian has been our best all year, Bisons
manager Bobby Cox said. [Easton] sts a
little dying quail. [Merryweather] got in on
him and guy sts it over the third basemans
head. That ties it. Then we go extra innings
and just didnt get er done.
The loss punctuates a remarkable season
for Oklahoma Baptist. The team nished the
season with a 55-9 record, shattering the
program record for wins in a season.
Merryweather closes his career at the four-
year school with a 12-3 record this season.
His 1.07 ERAis the second best single-sea-
son record in Bisons history.
His nal win of the year came May 24 in
the Avista-NAIAWorld Series opener, ring
a three-hit complete game in a 3-1 win over
Tabor. Merryweather
struck out 14 in the game.
He was outstanding,
Cox said. I think his last
pitch in the ninth was 93
(mph). And we brought
him back [Wednesday] on
three days rest and he has-
nt relieved all year.
Hes been our best guys
all year, and at this point
it was either win or go
home. We didnt have
anyone else on the mound
that I wanted to go with
there.
After producing plenty
of offense this season
with a lineup built around
No. 3-hitter Matt Page
(Serra and Skyline
College) and cleanup hit-
ter Steven Knudson (El
Camino and Caada
College) Oklahoma
Baptist hitters scufed at
the plate through four
World Series games, bat-
ting just .203 as a team.
It was like wed been
swimming in sand all
week, Cox said. Just
the time it felt like were
about to break loose
well hit two line drives at the center elder.
Never quite got our offense on track and that
was kind of the difference.
The Bisons struggles were personied by
Page. While hitting .381 on the season
with 11 home runs and 84 RBIs, the senior
left-handed hitter went 2 for 15 with no
RBIs through four World Series games.
Matt hit some balls on the nose, Cox
said. He was one of the guys who really
couldnt get on track for us.
After winning the 2013 NAIA Player of
the Year as a junior, Page is one of the
favorites for the award this year, according
to Cox. And with Merryweather and Pages
collegiate careers ending Wednesday, they
are both candidates to be selected in next
weeks MLB First-Year Player Draft, held
June 5-7.
I think theyll both get a chance (to play
at the next level), Cox said. I think Julian
has a chance to be a fairly high draft choice,
from what I gather from the scouts and
Matt has a lot of interest.
The Bisons went 2-2 in the 10-team, dou-
ble-elimination tournament. After defeating
Tabor in the opener, Oklahoma Baptist took
down Faulkner 7-2 Monday before suffering
its rst loss of the tourney to Cumberland
13-5 Tuesday.
We felt like we should have won
[Wednesday], theres no question, Cox
said. That was a hard one. Weve won those
kinds of games all year.
Oklahoma Wesleyan was eliminated in
seminal play Thursday with a 9-5 loss to
Lewis-Clark State.
Another former local player will be
returning home with the NAIA national
championship, however, as Cumberland
captured its third ever title with a 3-0 win
over Lewis-Clark State Friday night.
On roster at Cumberland this season was
former Carlmont and Caada College stand-
out Garrett Treadwell. He tabbed seven
innings of relief as a senior right-handed
pitcher this season.
The championship is Cumberlands third
all-time, as the program previously won in
2004 and 10.
Lewis-Clark State advanced to the cham-
pionship game with a 9-5 win Thursday to
eliminate Oklahoma Wesleyan. With 16 all-
time titles, Lewis-Clark State owns more
national championships than any other
team at the NAIAlevel.

DUBLIN, Ohio Paul Casey expected to be
chasing someone Friday in the Memorial, g-
uring it would be Rory McIlroy.
After two holes, Casey had the lead to him-
self at Muireld Village, and that was only the
start of another big day. He took advantage of
the par 5s for another 6-under 66, giving him
a three-shot lead over Masters champion
Bubba Watson going into the weekend.
McIlroy, whose 63 was the lowest rst
round in the 39-year history of the tourna-
ment, was barely in the picture. He was 15
shots worse with a 78, courtesy of three
straight double bogeys and his fourth straight
PGATour event with a nine-hole score of 40 or
higher. McIlroy went from a three-shot lead to
nine shots behind.
To be honest, I thought I was going to be
playing a round to try and maybe catch a cou-
ple of guys, Casey said. I woke up checking
the scores to see what Rory was going to be.
Thats really what I was going to be doing --
see how many under I was going to have to try
to shoot to chase. Obviously, that didnt hap-
pen.
Casey, taking another step on a long road
back from injuries that nearly derailed his
career, was at 12-under 132.
He made his rst birdie with his best drive of
the day on the par-5 11th, setting up a 4-iron
onto the green for a two-putt birdie. He made
eagle on the par-5 15th hole for the second
straight day, and he stuffed it close around the
turn for birdies to start pulling away from the
eld.
Watson gave him a good run in an active
round that featured six birdies, ve bogeys and
an eagle. He only was angry at a few shots
where he failed to concentrate. Even so, a
bogey-bogey nish wasnt enough to entirely
ruin his day. Watson has never nished better
than 23rd in eight previous appearances.

ST. LOUIS Madison Bumgarner struck
out 10 in seven scoreless innings and Hunter
Pence hit a three-run homer off Adam
Wainwright as the surging San Francisco
Giants beat the St. Louis Cardinals 9-4 on
Friday night.
Bumgarner (7-3) allowed three hits and
matched a season high for strikeouts set in his
previous start against Minnesota. He walked
one.
San Francisco has won eight of nine and
owns the best record in the majors at 36-19.
Pence had two hits and scored twice. Pablo
Sandoval extended his hitting streak to 10
games with a single and a double, but his run
of nine straight games with an RBI was
snapped.
Hector Sanchez and Gregor Blanco each had
a two-run single for the Giants, who scored
seven runs with two outs. San Francisco has
scored 117 runs with two outs, tops in the big
leagues.
Angel Pagan had two hits and scored twice
for the Giants.
Jon Jay hit a three-run double off San
Francisco reliever David Huff in the eighth.
Allen Craig added an RBI double against Juan
Gutierrez.
Wainwright (8-3) entered with a 20-inning
scoreless streak and a major league-leading
1.67 ERA. He was trying to become the rst
nine-game winner in the National League, but
lasted just 4 1-3 innings and allowed seven
earned runs on eight hits. His ERAjumped to
2.32.
The Giants wasted no time ending
Wainwrights shutout streak. Pagan led off the
game with a double down the left eld line. He
moved to third on Pences yball to right and
scored on Michael Morses two-out single.
San Francisco then broke the game open by
scoring four times off Wainwright in the sec-
ond inning after the rst two batters were
retired.
Brandon Hicks kept the inning going by
coaxing a walk. Hicks went to third on
Bumgarners single to left and scored when
Pagan followed with a single to center. Pence
then hit a 447-foot shot into the third deck in
left eld to make it 5-0.
Wainwright was pulled after allowing a sin-
gle to Sandoval and a double by Morse with
one out in the fth. Sandoval and Morse both
ended up scoring on Blancos two-out single
off reliever Seth Maness.

Knights into title contender this season,
nishing third in the Peninsula Athletic
Leagues South Division with a 10-2 record,
one game behind co-champs Carlmont and
Mills, and earning a spot in the Central
Coast Section playoffs. In two seasons,
Hankins compiled a 12-12 record in PAL
play and 22-28 overall.
With a number of key players poised to
return over the next couple of years, the
Knights are on track for something special
and Hillsdale athletic director Brett
Stevenson believes Ciardella is the man to
take the Knights to the next level.
Coach Ciardella will continue the good
work coach Hankins has done establishing
our girls basketball program as a solid team
in the PAL, Stevenson said in an email. I
want Mike to come in and build on that suc-
cess and establish a tradition of a top-notch
girls basketball program. Mike has the
coaching pedigree and experience to do
this.
For those not familiar with Ciardella
resume, its impressive to say the least.
Hes had success at nearly every stop of his
coaching career, but he really made a name
for himself with the Sacred Heart Prep girls
program in the early to mid 1990s. From
1991 to 1996, his teams won four Division
V state championships and five Central
Coast Section titles, compiling a record of
168-13.
To Ciardella, however, that was a lifetime
ago.
I dont try to bring that stuff up. That was
a long time ago, Ciardella said. I met with
the (Hillsdale) team and I told them what I
expect. Im a big believer in we have to like
each other and get along.
When Ciardella was named athletic direc-
tor at Sacred Heart Prep in 1997, he gave up
the coaching reins. Ciardella wanted to con-
centrate on being the best athletic director
he could be.
Its tough to coach and be an AD. Youre
cheating something (if you do both). I
decided I just wanted to help [the SHP]
coaches. I wanted them to all succeed,
Ciardella said. I stayed out of coaching
while I was an AD. It was good for me to be
on the administrative end.
Stevenson believes Ciardellas experi-
ence as athletic director will help Hillsdale
as well.
Mike has the ability to help mentor
some of our younger coaches at Hillsdale,
Stevenson said.
When Ciardella retired in 2009, he began
a several-year trek as an assistant or co-head
coach. Ciardella said he did not get the itch
to run a program on his own again until he
saw the opening at Hillsdale. He gured if
he was going to do it, now was the time. At
67 years old, Ciardella is not getting any
younger, but he said being in good health
denitely factored into his decision.
When I saw the Hillsdale [opening], I
starting thinking about it. [The school] is
pretty close [to my home in Redwood
Shores] and theyre going to be a pretty
good team. I knew the team was in pretty
good shape. I thought, Maybe Ill try
this, Ciardella said.
Despite his resume and success, Ciardella
actually was not sure he was the right per-
son for the job.
I thought, Maybe Im not what theyre
looking for. Maybe Im too old, Ciardella
said.
Ciardella, after some prodding from
Stevenson, threw his hat into the ring and
he was chosen to coach the Knights.
If I didnt think it was the right t, I
would have bowed out, Ciardella said.
Said Stevenson: Hillsdale is excited and
honored that coach Ciardella has accepted
the position as head varsity basketball
coach at Hillsdale.

CIARDELLA
then, the Hollister-based program has dom-
inated the recurring matchup, defeating the
Scots six times in CCS play including
two championship-game matchups in 2007
and 12 while outscoring them 28-4
overall.
With a senior majority of starters in
2004, Castagno and the Scots were deter-
mined to return to prominence. And what a
talented group of seniors it was. Eight play-
ers from that squad have since been inducted
into the Carlmont Hall of Fame, ve of
which Bridgette Mason, Celina Castillo,
Lindsey Garenhime, Bernadette Pisano and
Castagno were seniors.
Our team I think seven or eight of the
starting nine were all seniors, Castagno
said. So, we were determined to win. It was
a good game. We did it as a team. Our fans
were always a hundred percent with us. And
having Ligg and the coaching staff that has
been through it for, gosh, how long now? It
was an awesome win.
Ligg, of course, is none other than leg-
endary Carlmont head coach Jim Liggett. In
his 39th year at the helm of the Scots,
Liggett is the winningest softball coach in
prep history with 962 career victories. He
has coached each of the Scots seven CCS
championship teams, in 1982, 84, 97,
99, 2001, 02 and 04.
Certainly, [Castagnos] pitching, at
times, was outstanding, Liggett said. I
know Jerrica was instrumental to our suc-
cess at that time. And she threw exception-
ally hard.
She sure did. Strikeout numbers like hers
dont lie. Castagno fanned 269 opposing
batters in 2004, ranking fourth on
Carlmonts all-time single-season leaders
list. She also ranks third all-time in single-
season shutouts (19) and fourth in single-
season wins (28), and is fth on the career
wins list with 60.
And like most all Scots players, Castagno
raves about her former coach with rever-
ence.
I love Ligg, Castagno said. When he
means business, he means business. He
was the one that was always going through
clipboards, out there cracking them over his
knee, throwing them on the ground, throw-
ing his hat. But at the end of the day he was
so much fun to play for.
Castagno is also one of three all-time
Scots pitchers to be named rst-team All-
California. Tori Nyberg earned the nod three
times in 1997, 98 and 99. And current
pitcher Rebecca Faulkner received the
honor in 2013.
Castagno and Faulkner are actually a lot
alike on the diamond. In addition to both
being three-time Peninsula Athletic League
Bay Division first-team pitchers, each
earned Division I scholarships. Castagno
went on to play at Santa Clara University.
Faulkner is bound for U.C. Riverside in the
fall.
Both also effectively shared time with
other standout pitchers. With Faulkner, the
Scots somehow found innings for junior
Mariko Kondo this season, which should
prove valuable when the right-hander takes
over fulltime pitching duties next season.
For Castagno, she emerged a year younger
than standout pitcher Monique Castillo, as
the tandem lled the void upon the departure
of Nyberg one of the greatest pitchers in
California prep history who went on to
pitch at Stanford.
Basically, you just figure out whos
throwing the best at the time and theyre the
one you pitch, Liggett said. And this year
its been Faulkner. Shes been dominant for
us.
And from 2001-04, it ultimately proved
to be Castagno, who was the centerpiece of
the most successful CCS run in Carlmont
history.
[Liggett] pushed us to the limit,
Castagno said. But at the same time, he
always wanted us to have fun. Its kind of
hard not to have fun when youre on such a
good team and youre always winning.

After California Chromes trou-
ble-free trips in the Kentucky Derby
and Preakness, the chestnut colt
with four white feet will be running
in the Belmont Stakes with a bulls-
eye on his back.
Trainer Art Sherman believes
California Chrome can become
horse racings rst Triple Crown
winner since Afrmed in 1978 when
he races at Belmont Stakes. Win and
the horse becomes racings next
superstar.
I feel more condent coming
into this race than I did any race,
said Sherman, who at 77 is training
the best horse of his long career.
Im getting pumped up.
So are those aiming to knock off
the champ and prevent history from
being made on June 7.
At least nine horses are expected
for the 1 1/2-mile Belmont; the
eld will be set Wednesday when
entries are due and post positions
drawn. The race appears to be a mix
of returning rivals and newcomers
to the Triple Crown trail.
Ride On Curlin will test
California Chrome again. The colt
nished second, beaten 1 1/2
lengths in the Preakness, and was
seventh in the Derby. He and
California Chrome will be the only
horses to run in all three legs of the
Triple Crown this year.
Ive gotten closer to California
Chrome more than anybody else
has this year, Ride On Curlins
trainer Billy Gowan said, and with

The Belmont is the longest of the
three races. The distance can tire out
a horse that has run on the com-
pressed ve-week schedule of the
Triple Crown. No 3-year-old has run
that far its life, and few will be asked
to ever do it again.
Some horses absolutely do not
want to go a mile and a half,
Gowan said, and some horses
thrive on it.

points to erase any doubt by halftime. The
Heat set a franchise record with their 11th
straight home postseason win, going back to
the nal two games of last seasons NBA
Finals, leading by 37 at one point.
Indiana led the East for much of the regular
season, one where the Pacers were fueled by
the memory of losing Game 7 of the East
nals in Miami a year ago. So they spent this
season with a clear goal: Toppling Miami as
kings of the East.
The Pacers were two games better in the
regular season.
They were two games worse in the postsea-
son. Game 7, this time, would have been in
Indianapolis. The Pacers just had no shot of
making it happen, not on this night.
The group loves to compete and loves to
compete at the highest level, and be pushed
to new levels, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra
said.
So now, the Celtics and Lakers have some
company.
Until Friday, they were the only teams in
NBAhistory to reach the Finals in four straight
years. The Heat have joined them, and their
quest for a third straight title starts in either San
Antonio or Oklahoma City on Thursday night.
Its all about 15 special men and what
theyve been able to accomplish these last four
years, said Heat managing general partner
Micky Arison, who handed the East title trophy
to Greg Oden. Just a little bit more work to do,
but Im really proud of the incredible job that
these guys have done.
The way they played in Game 6 made a
prophet out of Bosh, who predicted Miami
would play its best game of the season. The
numbers suggested he was right, and then
some.
Miamis largest lead at any point this sea-
son, before Game 6, was 36 points. Indianas
largest decit of the season had been 35 points.
After a layup by James with 3:39 left in the
third, the margin in this one was a whopping
37 86-49. Jamesnight ended not long after-
ward.
It was just one of those games that we want
to play from beginning to end, Bosh said.
Here on our home court, we wanted to make a
statement.
There were the now-requisite Lance
Stephenson events, adding intrigue to the rst
half. The Pacers guard walked over to James
and tapped him in the face in the opening min-
utes, stood over him after both got tangled
under the basket, and got whistled for a agrant
foul for striking Norris Cole in the head in the
second quarter.
It was the end of a memorable series for
Stephenson, none of which really had any-
thing to do with basketball. His string of news-
worthy moments from these East nals started
when he talked about the health of Wades
knees before the series and reached an apex in
Game 5 when he blew into James ear and
walked into a Heat huddle.
The Heat were bothered by it all, but got the
last laugh. Big Brother, again, reigned supreme
in this rivalry. And when it was over,
Stephenson went out and shook hands with
plenty of Heat players, as did the rest of his
teammates.
Pacers coach Frank Vogel was using the big
brother-little brother analogy earlier in the
series, telling the tale of how at some point in
every sibling rivalry the younger one has to
make a stand.
Indiana thought it would happen now.
The Heat, obviously, had other ideas.
Theyve won championships, West said
Friday when asked if the Pacers considered
themselves Miamis equal. No, were not
equal.
West said those words about eight hours
before game time.
They were in no dispute at nights end.
NOTES: James appeared in what became his
100th playoff victory. ... The Pacers are now 7-
12 against Miami in the last three postseasons,
and 20-10 against everybody else. ... Wade and
Udonis Haslem are going to the NBAFinals for
the fth time in nine seasons with a 15-67
season on their record during that stretch as
well. ... Chris Andersen returned from a thigh
injury, scoring nine points and grabbing 10
rebounds in 13 minutes for Miami.

n 2002, being the cool fth-graders
was the dream. That was the year we
graduated kindergarten. Entering mid-
dle school, the eighth-graders were the cool
ones the ones who
knew the ropes and the
ones who had all the
answers. Was it just yes-
terday that we entered as
freshmen and pictured
ourselves wearing our
caps and gowns, walking
across the stage to
receive our diplomas?
Ready or not, here we all are at the nish
line. This is what we have been thinking
about for four years, and intensely plan-
ning for (at least) the last semester. It is
crazy for me to think that high school is
over and that I will never walk the halls of
Burlingame High School as a student again.
Though it seemed as if we were stuck for
four years in a stagnant rut of writing
essays, taking tests, preparing for stan-
dardized tests and agonizing over AP
exams, I nd that we all have come a long
way, slowly, but surely, during our time
here.
Had someone told me back in my fresh-
man year that these four years would just y
by, the idea would have seemed ludicrous.
Yet, here I am, honestly with no clue where
all the time went.
Put your hand on a hot stove for a
minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with
a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a
minute. That was Albert Einstein on the
theory of relativity.
As I think back to my elementary school
days, I remember thinking that when I
graduated from high school I would be an
adult and never make mistakes. I suppose
that if I could tell 8-year-old me that even
adults make mistakes, it would come as a
huge shock to her.
High school, in many ways, has been a
sort of package deal for most of us. We
all have denitely made mistakes, learned
from them, formed new friendships, experi-

LOS ANGELES Sebastian Junger wants
84 minutes of moviegoers time, especially
civilian moviegoers.
In Korengal, the lmmaker employs
that amount of footage unused in his 2010
Afghanistan war documentary Restrepo to
paint a psychological portrait of soldiers,
not to re-chronicle the conict cunningly
captured in the Oscar-nominated original.
I really thought of it an inquiry, said
Junger, a journalist and author. Restrepo
wasnt an inquiry. Korengal is an inquiry
into the experience of war and how it affects
people. Civilians really need to understand
the experience. We sent them out there in
the rst place, and now we have to bring
them back. The more we understand about
what they went through, the better.
Junger is optimistic that the new lm will
have as much of an impact as Restrepo,
which was co-directed by the late documen-
tarian Tim Hetherington and told of the year
the two spent embedded with a U.S. platoon
in Afghanistans dangerous Korengal
Valley.
(Hetherington was killed by shrapnel
from a mortar round while covering ghting
in Libya in 2011.)
Junger nanced Korengal with partners
but turned to crowd-funding for distribution
of the lm, which opens in New York on
May 30. He said revisiting the hundreds of
hours of footage lmed in 2007 and 2008

WORD FOR WORD WEAVES A RICH
TAPESTRY OF SAM SHEPARD STO-
RIES. Word for Word, which has been creat-
ing theater out of short stories for more
than 20 years, presents 36 Stories by Sam
Shepard, an original adaptation of
Shepards ction and poetry by Word for
Word company member Amy Kossow. Five
actors are deployed in a stream of con-
sciousness depiction of extraordinary char-
acters (a talking severed head, a dangerous
female mercenary, a man-size hawk) who
collectively orbit around the writer who cre-
ates them. 90 minutes without intermis-
sion. Arranged for the stage and directed by
Amy Kossow. Through June 22.
CAST: Rod Gnapp The Writer; Delia
MacDougall The Mercenary/Dead
Mother/Sally; JoAnne Winter The
Waitress/Driver/Writers Mother; Patrick
Alparone The Musician/The Walking
Man/Dicky; Carl Lumbly The Head/The

Kossow and members of the cast immediate-

GO TO THE SOURCE: THE ORIGI-
NAL MATERIAL. 36 Stories by Sam
Shepard was adapted from Day Out of Days
(2011); Great Dream of Heaven: Stories by
Sam Shepard (2002); Cruising Paradise
(1997); Motel Chronicles (1992); and
Hawk Moon (1981).
AN ASIDE: Director Amy Kossow, who
adapted Shepards stories for this produc-
tion, said: Shepards prose is of the instant
moment. He plucks characters out of this
roadside diner or that nameless motel, and
makes us care about them within a few very
short paragraphs, before allowing them to
vanish. And yet them seem to exist in an
etched and permanent manner, and we may
encounter echoes of them just around the
next bend. His words often simple and
unadorned provoke instinctive, visceral
feelings colored with wild unexpected
humor.
MORE ABOUT SAM SHEPARD. Born
Nov. 5, 1943, Sam Shepard (born Samuel
Shepard Rogers III) received the Pulitzer

from our era stranded in the Old West.
Instead, his 1880s sheep farmer Albert Stark
simply talks like someone born in and trans-
planted from the 20th century. We live in a
terrible place and time, Albert tells friends
Edward (Giovanni Ribisi) and Ruth (Sarah
Silverman), assessing his surroundings as if
seeing medical and social realities through
our eyes. There are too many ways to die out
here, he laments though most of the
shock-violence gags the movie employs
demonstrate the risks not of living in an age
before modern medicine but of inhabiting a
world whose authors arent terribly gifted at
slapstick.
Dumped by his longtime sweetheart
Louise (Amanda Seyfried), Albert is about
ready to leave town when he meets Anna
(Charlize Theron), a newcomer who appre-
ciates his gentle personality in a way
locals dont. Perhaps thats because shes
secretly betrothed to the meanest cuss in
these parts, a bandit called Clinch (Liam
Neeson), who has sent her here to hide out
while he dodges the law for a spell.
(The preceding sentence contains more
Western-ese than the entire script
MacFarlane wrote with Alec Sulkin and
Wellesley Wild, which dates itself instead
with stuff like oh, snap, oh no I did-uhnt,
and douche.)
While Albert frets about Louises new
romance with fancy-pants shopkeeper Foy
(Neil Patrick Harris, whose vain moustache-
tonic merchant is a reliable laugh-getter),
Anna takes an inexplicable interest in help-
ing him stand up for himself. Why? Though
MacFarlane eventually demonstrates a knack
for low-key irty humor, Alberts appeal at
the start of their friendship is hard to see.
One assumes Anna knows how much money
Ted will make in 130 or so years and wants to
get in on the ground oor.
In a rare display of nerve, Albert chal-
lenges Foy to a duel; as Anna offers him the
gunslinger lessons that will inevitably lead
to love, the lms supporting cast all but
vanishes from the lm. (Just as well, per-
haps, as the screenplay is about to run out of
ways to poke fun at the fact that Alberts
buddy Edward is a virgin in a chaste relation-
ship with Ruth, the towns busiest whore.)
The romance plot could hardly be more famil-
iar, but at least it plays out against a land-
scape so dramatic one almost suspects the
lmmakers composited a few extra sandstone
formations into Monument Valley. Theron
carries almost all the weight here, given her
partners unexpected blandness, which
makes it vaguely insulting when the third act
turns her into a helpless damsel in need of his
rescue.
Though the lm is hardly laugh-free, its
uneven jokes appear to have breezed through
a very forgiving editing process. You really
shouldnt drink and horse, Edward tells a
soused Albert as he heads out on horseback
a bizarre turn of phrase that presumably
sounded funnier to somebody than the more
sense-making drink and ride. The leave-it-
all-in approach leads to a nearly two-hour
running time that looks all the more indul-
gent given how much invention Blazing
Saddles packed into an hour-and-a-half.
A Million Ways to Die in the West, a
Universal Pictures release, is rated R by the
Motion Picture Association of America for
strong crude and sexual content, language
throughout, some violence and drug materi-
al. Running time: 116 minutes.

mented (in more ways than one) and grown
as individuals.
All our highs and our lows have taken
place within the connes of this safe and
familiar environment. The buffers that our
school and surroundings have provided us
have been critical to our continued learning
in an unfettered fashion.
What distinguishes our learning and
growth from this point on is that the safety
and structure we are used to and which we
have taken for granted will no longer be
there with us. We move on to new adven-
tures, new challenges and newer avenues of
learning, all of which are essentially
uncharted territories for each one of us.
As I think of my own high schools gradu-
ating class, I see only enthusiasm, con-
dence and a little brashness that is character-
istic of every teenager. But we are not will-
ing to acknowledge, not yet, that change is
terrifying, hard and sometimes difcult to
live with. However, as the Greek philoso-
pher Heraclitis aptly put it, change is the
only constant.
So wherever we all are headed, be it col-
lege, work, the Marines, etc., we step out of
our comfort zones and face the real world,
condent in the education that our teachers
and parents have given us.

Ideas abound in Intelligent
Homosexuals Guide
By Judy Richter
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Theres no doubt that Tony Kushner is one of the
nations most brilliant, erudite playwrights. His acclaimed
Angels in America is the best example of his genius.
Now Berkeley Repertory Theatre is staging a more
recent work, The Intelligent Homosexuals Guide to
Capitalism and Socialism with a Key to the Scriptures.
While it doesnt equal the power and fascination of
Angels, it nevertheless is absorbing and often humorous
throughout most of its three hours and 40 minutes (includ-
ing two 15-minute intermissions).
The title reflects Kushners wide-ranging intellect, refer-
ring to playwright George Bernard Shaws nonfiction The
Intelligent Womans Guide to Socialism and Capitalism
and Christian Science founder Mary Baker Eddys Science
and Health with Key to the Scriptures.
The play, however, is a family drama set in the Brooklyn
brownstone of an Italian-American family in 2007. The
sister of the familys patriarch, 72-year-old Gus (Mark
Margolis), has gathered his three adult children and their
significant others because he wants to sell the house and
commit suicide.
He says hes developing Alzheimers. It later turns out
that Gus, a retired longshoreman, former Marxist and labor
leader, also has grown disenchanted with the 21st century.
Although his announced intention is the catalyst, the
story also focuses on relationships within the family and
between the children and others, starting with his son Pill
(Lou Liberatore). Hes a history teacher who recently
moved to Minneapolis with his longtime lover and now
husband, Paul (Tyrone Mitchell Henderson). The couple
moved from New York because of Pills romantic relation-
ship with a young hustler, Eli (Jordan Geiger).
Gus only daughter is Empty (her real name is Maria
Teresa, or MT), a lawyer played by Deirdre Lovejoy. Her
wife, Maeve (Liz Wisan), is eight months pregnant with
sperm from Emptys other brother, Vito (Joseph J. Parks),
a contractor, who is married to Sooze (Tina Chilip).
Emptys former husband, Adam (Anthony Fusco), lives
in the homes basement apartment.
Completing the family circle is Gus taciturn sister, Clio
(Randy Danson), a former nun who does social work in the
slums of nearby Patterson, New Jersey. The only outside
character is Gus friend Shelle (Robynn Rodriguez), who
appears briefly in Act 3 and details how he can kill him-
self.
Theres a great deal of angst, argument and political phi-
losophy as events unfold. Often everyone talks at once,
but does anyone listen?
Directed by BRT artistic director Tony Taccone, the act-
ing is excellent and most of the characters are sharply
etched, but Kushner hasnt developed some as well as oth-
ers.
Even though Taccone does his best to keep the action
flowing and Kushner has revised the play since its 2009
premiere in Minneapolis, it could benefit from revisions.
Some scenes, especially those involving Pill and Eli, are
too long. Some secondary characters, such as Sooze and
Maeve, need more fleshing out. Some plot developments
seem abrupt.
In short, Kushner weaves a rich tapestry, as he always
does, but this one has some loose threads.
The play will continue at Berkeley Repertory Theatre,
2015 Addison St., Berkeley, through June 29. For tickets
and information, call (510) 647-2949 or visit www.berke-
leyrep.org.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Mario Kart is one of those rare video
game series that truly everyone in the fami-
ly can enjoy. Little kids love its energy and
silliness, while even the grouchiest geezer
can gure out how to drive a go-kart. Heck,
even Tony Soprano played it.
Mario Kart 8 (Nintendo, for the Wii U,
$59.99) lives up to that tradition, keeping
the franchise high on any list of terric
multiplayer games. Beyond slicker graph-
ics, it doesnt represent a great evolution
from 1992s Super Mario Kart, but
Nintendo has never been a company that
tried to x things that arent broken.
This time around, there are 32 racetracks:
16 new ones and 16 repurposed from previ-
ous games and upgraded to high denition.
Some of the new tracks, like the high-tech
Electrodome, let you defy gravity, so youll
nd your vehicle clinging to walls and ceil-
ings. Its nothing new to fans of high-speed
racers like F-Zero and Wipeout, but adds
some unpredictability to the gooer courses
here.
Besides, theres more to Mario Kart
than keeping your foot (or thumb) on the
accelerator. Scattered across each track are
boxes containing weapons, which you need
to disrupt other racers momentum. As
usual, you can ing turtle shells and banana
peels at competitors; MK8 adds a
boomerang, a piranha plant and a super
horn you can use to deect shells hurtling
your way.
The cast includes 30 drivers, from super-
stars like Mario and Donkey Kong to obscu-
rities like Larry and Lemmy Koopa. The ros-
ter gets a little watered down with baby ver-

with Hetherington was invigorating after
working on the biographical HBO film,
Which Way Is the Front Line from Here?
The Life and Time of Tim Hetherington.
I had made a whole lm about Tims life
and his death, so I had sort of hacked my way
through that emotionally already, said
Junger. There were some poignant
moments looking at the footage he shot,
but it also felt like I was breathing new life
into the footage that he and I shot during
that amazing year, so he was living on a lit-
tle more.
With the influx of soldiers returning
home from the wars in Iraq and
Afghanistan, Junger hopes the film can
act as a bridge to understanding between
civilians and veterans. For instance,
Junger said a former military spouse
recently wrote to him and acknowledged
she wouldnt have divorced her veteran
husband had she first seen Restrepo.
The next big project, which will proba-
bly take longer and cost more money, is
reintegrating almost 3 million combat vet-
erans from the past two wars back into soci-
ety, said Junger. For me, Korengal is the
beginning of the process. Its about under-
standing who these people are coming
home and how theyve been affected by what
theyve been through.
Michael Cunningham, a member of the
platoon chronicled in Restrepo and
Korengal, agreed. Whether its watching
his fellow bored-out-of-their-skulls soldiers
play Guitar Hero, thanks to a generator
delivered to their mountainous outpost, or
gleefully engaging in a violent reght
with insurgents, Cunningham believes audi-
ences will learn from the lm.
I think people should go see this movie
out of respect for themselves, not because of
what I did or other soldiers are doing, said
Cunningham. Whether you like it or not,
youre an American citizen, this is your
country, so you might as well get the best
understanding you can from something that
I think aptly sums up the experience.

Finally, there are 26 vehicles karts,
bikes and all-terrain vehicles that you
can trick out with different tires as well as
gliders that let you oat across trickier parts
of the terrain. Most of the vehicle bodies
and accessories need to be unlocked, so
theres motivation to keep driving even
after youve seen all the tracks.
All this makes for fast-paced lunacy thats
best enjoyed with two or three friends. Sure,
more experienced drivers have an advan-
tage, but the ability to knock out the front-
runner with a well-timed shell helps even
out the playing eld. You can also compete
online with up to 11 other humans, but the
joy is more infectious if your pals are in the
same living room.
Unfortunately, the popular Battle Mode,
where the object is to eliminate other driv-
ers rather than beat them to the nish line,
is hamstrung by a puzzling decision to place
the battles on linear tracks. The tracks make
it much too easy to avoid getting struck,
unlike the crowded arenas featured in previ-
ous installments.
Still, if you crave a racing game where the
need for laughs is just as vital as the need for

By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
In Kelly Reichardts spare, eco-terrorist
thriller, the two spurts of violence that dis-
turb the placid pine forests of the Pacic
Northwest are each hazy with fog. One is a
misty nighttime bombing of a hydroelec-
tric dam, the other a fatal encounter in a
sauna.
A thick moral cloudiness hangs over
Night Moves, Reichardts fth lm. Three
disillusioned environmentalist radicals
conspire to send a message by blowing up a
dam that has upset the local ecosystem.
Clad in wet wool hats, theyre far from
romantic terrorists like Carlos the Jackal.
One, after all, is played by Jesse Eisenberg.
They can hardly articulate their extrem-
ism. Josh (Eisenberg), a taciturn organic
farm worker in Oregon, mumbles some-
thing about a local dam killing all the
salmon just so you can run your (expletive)
iPod every second of your life.
Hes joined by a reckless former Marine
named Harmon (Peter Sarsgaard), knowing
in matters of destruction, and Dena (Dakota
Fanning), an earnest college dropout
rebelling against her familys wealth.
What Reichardt captures in Night
Moves is the bitter despair of those ght-
ing the hydra-headed forces of rampant con-
sumerism and environmental destruction.
They may be tragically misguided in turn-
ing to violence, but theyre spoiling for
any kind of tangible action.
Their urgency warps their logic to the
point of violence, with unforeseen conse-
quences. Dena, though young and breezy, is
almost nihilistic: Itll all go fast in the
end, she says, predicting the end of days
with a shrug.
Amanic, stuttering awkwardness has long
been Eisenbergs stock in trade. But hes
been expanding (he also stars in the recent-
ly released doppelganger thriller The
Double), and in Night Moves, he has an
atypically quiet intensity. Reichardts
sparsely naturalistic dramas with Michelle
Williams the drifter tale Wendy and
Lucy and the Western Meeks Cutoff were
more bare, but Night Moves still gets
much of its drama from the currents of para-
noia and uncertainty that flicker across
Eisenbergs face.
Night Moves has a sure-handedness
that shows Reichardt is still growing as a
lmmaker. The scene at the dam, in particu-
lar, is suspenseful, and the rugged Oregon
landscapes are vivid. But the movie also
sticks mainly to familiar rhythms of such
thrillers the conspiratorial build up and
the fractious fallout.
Reichardt, lming the action objectively,
doesnt judge the actions of the three. But
the alternative in the lm living peace-
fully in yurts removed from the rest of the
world also doesnt feel like a satisfactory
answer for Reichardt.
If pressed, Id still take 1975s pulpy
Night Moves, with Gene Hackman as a
private eye, over Reichardts film. But
Night Moves has its own mournful mood-
iness, heavy with a bleak helplessness
about how to defend a Mother Nature beset
on all sides.
Night Moves, a Cinedigm
Entertainment release, is rated R by the
Motion Picture Association of America for
some language and nudity. Running time:
112 minutes. Three stars out of four.
Eco-terrorism grips in Night Moves
Night Moves has a mournful moodiness, heavy with a bleak helplessness about how to defend a Mother Nature beset on all sides.
resignation with considerable regret. But
the president, too, focused on increasingly
troubling allegations of treatment delays
and preventable deaths at veterans hospi-
tals around the country.
Emerging from an Oval Ofce meeting
with Shinseki, a stone-faced Obama said the
secretary himself acknowledged he had
become a distraction as the administration
moves to address the VAs troubles, and the
president agreed with him.
We dont have time for distractions,
Obama said. We need to x the problem.
One of Shinsekis last acts as secretary
was to hand the president an internal
accounting that underscored just how big
the problems have become. It showed that
in some cases, VA schedulers have been
pressured to fake information for reports to
make waiting times for medical appoint-
ments look more favorable.
It is totally unacceptable, Obama said.
Our vets deserve the best. Theyve earned
it.
The president appointed Sloan Gibson,
the No. 2 at the Veterans Affairs
Department, as temporary secretary as the
search for a permanent successor began.
Obama also asked Rob Nabors, a top White
House aide who has been dispatched to the
VAto oversee a broad review, to stay for the
time being.
Gibson, who has been Shinsekis deputy
for about three months, was formerly presi-
dent and chief executive ofcer of the USO,
the nonprot organization that provides
programs and services to U.S. troops and
their families. Gibson is the son of an Army
Air Corpsman who served in World War II
and grandson of a World War I Army
infantryman.
Republicans in Congress said the shake-
up wasnt enough to solve problems at an
agency that has been struggling to keep up
with a huge demand for its services some
9 million enrolled now compared to 8 mil-
lion in 2008. The inux comes from return-
ing Iraq and Afghanistan veterans, aging
Vietnam War vets who now have more
health problems, a move by Congress to
expand the number of those eligible for care
and the migration of veterans to the VAdur-
ing the last recession after they lost their
jobs or switched to the VA when their pri-
vate insurance became more expensive.
One personnel change cannot be used as
an excuse to paper over a systemic prob-
lem, said House Speaker John Boehner, R-
Ohio, who had held off in calling for
Shinsekis resignation. Our veterans
deserve better. Well hold the president
accountable until he makes things right.
The massive bureaucracy at the VA has
come under intense scrutiny over the past
month, following allegations that 40
patients died while awaiting care at a
Phoenix hospital where employees kept a
secret waiting list to cover up delays. On
Wednesday, the VAinspector general report-
ed that 1,700 veterans seeking treatment at
the Phoenix facility were at risk of being
forgotten or lost.
After that scathing report, a cascade of
Democrats on the ballot in the fall midterm
elections joined dozens of Republicans in
calling for Shinseki to step down.
Administration officials said the com-
bined pressure of the VAinvestigators trou-
bling ndings and the extreme focus on
Shinsekis status led Obama to conclude
that the secretary would probably need to
resign. But they said the president wanted to
rst allow Shinseki an opportunity to sub-
mit his own report to the White House, set
in motion a series of rings in the agency,
and speak to veterans at a long-planned
appearance Friday morning.
In his speech to the National Coalition
for Homeless Veterans, Shinseki said, I
extend an apology to the people whom I
care most deeply about thats the veter-
ans of this great country to their families
and loved ones, who I have been honored to
serve for over ve years now. Its the call-
ing of a lifetime.
The 71-year-old Shinseki said he had been
too trusting of some in the VAsystem. He
then headed to the White House to offer his
resignation to the president during a 30-
minute meeting.
Obama appeared to take no comfort in
ousting Shinseki, a disabled Vietnam veter-
an and former Army chief of staff who has
overseen the VAsince the start of the Obama
presidency. He called him a good person
whos done exemplary work on our behalf.
Shinseki is among the few high-level
ofcials pushed out a job by Obama, who
has shown a preference for sticking by
advisers during a crisis. He allowed Health
and Human Services Secretary Kathleen
Sebelius to stay on the job six months
while she faced similar management and
competence questions during the disastrous
rollout of the enrollment website for
Obamas signature health law.
Problems at the VAdate back well before
Shinseki took the helm. The VA inspector
general has issued 18 reports since 2005
that identied deciencies in scheduling at
both the national and local levels.
Congressional lawmakers are working on
legislation that would seek to address those
problems. Including a bill passed by the
Republican-led House that would give the
VA greater ability to re up to 450 senior
executives. The Democratic-controlled
Senate is likely to debate a different version
championed by Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt.
In his nal remarks as secretary, Shinseki
asked Congress to support Sanders legisla-
tion. He also announced that the govern-
ment would not give any VA performance
bonuses this year and would use all authori-
ties it has against those who instigated or
tolerated the falsification of wait-time
records.

RESIGN
By David Espo
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Republicans and
Democrats alike want it both ways when it
comes to any misdeeds at veterans hospi-
tals, each side accusing the other of seek-
ing unseemly political gain from the mis-
fortune of the nations warriors, while
simultaneously maneuvering for an advan-
tage in midterm elections.
The Democratic Senatorial Campaign
Committee jumped in on Thursday, charg-
ing Republicans in key races with politi-
cizing (a) horrible crisis for political
gain then accusing them of compiling
shameful, anti-veterans records.
The same two-sided tactic had previous-
ly occurred to Republicans and their allies.
One House committee chairman, Rep.
Jeff Miller of Florida, said the problems
now coming to light at VA hospitals
shouldnt be used for political gain.
Yet the Republican National Committee
announced it was making automated calls
to voters in 10 states with Democratic-
held Senate seats on the ballot. Veterans
deserve an independent investigation,
not another political cover-up, the calls
said.
An outside organization, the
Republican-supporting Crossroads GPS,
skipped the hand-wringing. It simply
sought to lay at least partial responsibili-
ty for the poor treatment of veterans at the
feet of Democratic Sen. Mark Begich of
Alaska.
Anational disgrace, it says. Veterans
died waiting for care that never came. Sen.
Mark Begich sits on the Veterans Affairs
Committee.
The Alaskan was among a dwindling
number of Senate Democrats in tough
races this year to refrain from calling on
Veterans Affairs Secretary Eric Shinseki to
step down.
A wounded veteran himself, Shinseki
resigned on Friday after issuing a public
apology to a veterans group for his
agencys performance. He had seemed to
be serving on borrowed time since allega-
tions surfaced that as many as 40 former
members of the service may have died
while awaiting care at the agencys facili-
ties in Phoenix.
The criticism intensified Wednesday
after agency investigators issued a searing
interim report that said 1,700 former
members of the service seeking hard-to-
get appointments at the Phoenix VAhos-
pital never had been placed on the ofcial
waiting list and were at risk of being for-
gotten.
For a time on Wednesday and Thursday,
the list of Democrats seeking Shinsekis
surrender seemed to grow hourly, despite a
series of phone calls from the embattled
Cabinet ofcer to key lawmakers. White
House support for the former Army general
seemed to be fading, and spokesman Jay
Carney said President Barack Obama was
awaiting a full investigation into the
agencys troubles before deciding who
should be held accountable.

mended both ofcers for their reaction
to the threat of death.
Ofcer Busalacchi faced a remark-
ably dangerous situation, knowing
that an angry, irrational and armed man
was now raising the knife to stab him
again, Wagstaffe wrote.
Changs death came after a six-hour
standoff at his familys San Pedro
Avenue home where theyd been called
by his mother to help get him to a hos-
pital. She described him as paranoid,
believing people were trying to assas-
sinate him and possessing a little ax
in his pocket.
The family told investigators they
believed Chang wanted suicide by cop
and had hugged them each before barri-
cading himself inside which they took
as his goodbye.
While trying to get Chang to leave
the house, he repeatedly threatened to
kill and chop the heads off ofcers,
Wagstaffe wrote in his letter. He raised
the ax at them several times but the
ofcers showed enormous restraint in
not shooting Mr. Chang at that time,
Wagstaffe said.
The ofcers tried several methods to
take Chang into custody include a
beanbag shotgun, a Taser and ash-
bangs which disorient a person
through a blinding light and noise.
After learning from Changs father a
gun was inside the home, the SWAT
team entered and found he had con-
structed barricades with furniture and
mattresses throughout the house. They
threw another flash-bang and saw
Chang emerging from the smoke with
a knife. Busalacchi jumped over the
barricade but, as Chang struck at him,
could not move. As Chang swung the
blade toward the ofcers face and into
his arm, Busalacchi red his weapon
twice and Woelkers red several times.
During the subsequent investiga-
tion, Changs father Thomas said his
son had a history of mental health
problems and criminal activity. Errol
Chang had experienced an extreme
mental breakdown the previous two
weeks and Thomas Chang said he bar-
ricaded his bedroom at night so he
could sleep without fear.

The fund generates its revenue from
inmate commissary sales, including
prepaid calling cards, and commis-

In fiscal year 2012-13, the total
gross revenue was $1,976,429 which
breaks down to $1,345,068 from com-
missary and $631,361 from telephone

After $1,960,136 in expenses and

Munks will deliver the fund update to

Obama met with Gibson after he met
with Shinseki and accepted his resig-
nation. The president said he had made
it clear to Gibson that reforms should
not wait. They need to proceed imme-
diately.
Before joining the USO, Gibson
spent more than 20 years in banking
in Charlotte, North Carolina; Atlanta;
Nashville, Tennessee; and
Birmingham, Alabama. In 2004, he
retired from AmSouth Bancorp., where
he was vice chairman and chief nan-
cial ofcer.
His chairmanship of the United Way
campaign in central Alabama in 2002
netted more than $30 million for char-
itable organizations.
Gibson is the son of an Army air
corpsman who served as a B-17 tail-
gunner during World War II. His grand-
father was an Army infantryman who
was wounded in World War I while serv-
ing in the 3rd Infantry Division at the
Second Battle of the Marne.
Gibson is a 1975 graduate of the
U.S. Military Academy at West Point,
New York, where he earned airborne
and ranger qualications and served as
an Army infantry ofcer.
He earned a masters degree in eco-
nomics from the University of
Missouri in Kansas City and a masters
degree in public administration from
the John F. Kennedy School of
Government at Harvard University.
Gibson and his wife, Margaret, have
been married for nearly 32 years and
have two grown daughters, Celia and
Laura.
He will run the department until
Obama nominates and the Senate con-
rms a permanent VAsecretary.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Vidyagauri Kantilal Khatri
Case Number: 123880
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: Vidyagauri Kantilal Kha-
tri. A Petition for Probate has been filed
by Pradeep Kantilal Khatri in the Superi-
or Court of California, County of San Ma-
teo. The Petition for Probate requests
that Pradeep Kantilal Khatri be appointed
as personal representative to administer
the estate of the decedent.
The petition requests the descedants will
and codicils, if any, be admitted to pro-
bate. The willand any codicils are availa-
ble for examination in tehfile kept by the
court.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ister the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: June 23, 2014 at
9:00 a.m., Dept. 28, Superior Court of
203 Public Notices
California, County of San Mateo, 400
County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063.
If you object to the granting of the peti-
tion, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hear-
ing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent cred-
itor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representa-
tive, as defined in section 58(b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal de-
livery to you of a notice under section
9052 of the California Probate Code.
Other California statutes and legal au-
thority may affect your rights as a cred-
itor. You may want to consult with an at-
torney knowledgeable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.
