    The alleged victim of a former socialworker facing more than 30 felonies forsexually assaulting minor clients filed acivil lawsuit against her abuser and SanMateo County for failing to protect her.

    To prot ect the mino r’s identity, her court-appointed guardian Jonathan McDougallfiled the suit Thursday on behalf of “JaneDoe” against the county and its formeremployee Manuel Sedillo-Messer, the for-mer social worker with the Human ServicesAgency.

    Sedillo-Messer, 38, has pleaded notguilty to his criminal charges in whichprosecutors allege he abused three younggirls who he was tasked with overseeing asa social worker.

    The first victim, who met Sedillo-Messerin 20 11, is now suing both h er alleged abus-er and the county with a range o f complaintsthat includes sexual assault, negligence andbreach of mandatory duty.

    “[Sedillo-Messer] preyed on minor girls,who were especially vulnerable because of their life circumstances and placement inthe dependency system of [the county], bycoercing them in to h aving sexual relation-ships with him,” according to the s uit.

    Sedillo-Messer began having sexual rela-tions with Jane Doe in J une 2014 when shewas 16 years old and in cluded encounters i nhotels, county-owned vehicles, at the vic-tim’s mother’s home and on various beach-es in the county, according to the suit.

    He would also send herexplicit text messagesand photographs in addi-tion t o disclosing detailsabout other sexualencounters and his extra-

    marital affairs, accordingto the suit.

    On one occasion,Sedillo-Messer took thegirl to a hotel roomwhere he proceeded to

    have sex ual in tercourse with h er four times,twice without protection, according to thesuit.

    The conduct of Sedillo-Messer “was sooutrageous in character and so extreme indegree as to go beyond all possible boundsof decency, and should be regarded as despi-cable, atrocious and utterly intolerable in acivili zed community,” according t o the suit.

    During the two to three months Sedillo-Messer allegedly engaged in the inapp ropri-ate contact with Jane Doe, he was visitingher almost daily. However, according tostate rules governing social services,Sedillo-Messer should have at least a two-week time frame between visi ts, the majori-ty of which should take place at the child’sfoster home, according to the suit.

    “Other employees of the county of SanMateo had concrete and credible evidencethat at least one of these relationships wasoccurring, yet all failed to meet their dutiesof mandatory reporting, thereby continuingto expose the victims to further abuse,”according to the suit.

    McDougall and Jane Doe are representedin the suit by the Emanuel Law Group.Neither McDougall, nor an attorney fromthe group were available to comment onwhat evidence county allegedly had.However, the suit alleges other county

    employees had enough information to rea-sonably form a suspicion of sexual abuseyet b reached their mandatory duty to repo rtit. The suit also claims the county failed toproperly oversee and train Sedillo-Messer.

    Chief Deputy County Counsel Paul Okadasaid his office hadn’t yet reviewed the caseas of Friday morning, but would proceedwith caution.

    “We’re not in a position to commentgiven the pending criminal matter,” Okadasaid.

    Sedillo-Messer is also charged with hav-ing s exual encounters with a second victim,who reported he was like a father to her, atan upscale San Jose hotel, according to theDistrict Attorney’s Office.

    Since Sedillo-Messer’s arrest lastOctober, a third victim came forward alleg-ing he sexually assaulted her in his person-al car and county-provided cars, accordingto t he District Attorney’s Office.

    Sedillo-Messer is scheduled to appear incourt Monday for a pretrial conference onhis criminal proceedings. He is scheduled toface a jury July 20, according to t he DistrictAttorney’s Office.

    A case management conference to discussthe civil suit is scheduled Oct. 28.

    Sedillo -Messer’s atto rney did not return arequest for comment.

    THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

    SACRAMENTO — California lawmakershave scheduled a vote Monday on a $117.5billion spending plan that increases social

    spending for the poor even though Gov. JerryBrown hasn’t signed off on that version of thebudget.

    The Legislature’s two Democratic leaderssay theirs is a responsible budget that setsaside money for a rainy day, pays down debtand boosts schools. They are hoping to getBrown’s blessing to spend an addition al $749million for the fiscal year that begins July 1.

    But Brown, also aDemocrat, is reluctant togo along with new spend-ing commitments in wel-fare, health care and childcare. He and Republicansare concerned that thestate won’t collect asmuch in t axes, leaving thestate more vulnerablewhen the next economicdownturn hit s.

    This means that even if a budget is passedMonday, negotiations will continue in thedays ahead.

    Brown, lawmakers continue budget talks ahead of deadline

    WHAT DO THE GOVERNOR

    AND LAWMAKERS AGREE ON

     There’s a lot of common ground between Brown and lawmakers.Both sides are calling for billions in additional spending forpublic schools,setting aside money in the state’s rainy day fund,

    paying down debt and adopting a new earned income taxcredit to help as many as 2 million Californians.In-state tuition at the University of California won’t rise for mostundergraduates for two years.In exchange,the state will increasethe university’s budget by $120 million,or 4 percent,and sendmore money to UC’s pension fund.

     The budget also calls for funding increases at the CaliforniaState University system to enroll more community collegetransfer students and get more students to earn their bachelor’sdegrees in four years.WHAT ARE THE STICKING POINTS

    Brown proposed a $115.3 billion budget,but Democrats have

    crafted a $117.5 billion spending plan by assuming the statewill collect more tax revenues than the governor estimates.Democrats are using that extra revenue to justify spending$749 million more next year on programs to help the poor.Theywant to boost child care, health care, welfare and higher

    education,among other programs.WHAT’S NOT IN THE BUDGET

     The governor and legislative leaders said they were unable toreach agreement on how to spend a growing pot of moneycollected from the state’s landmark effort to curb g reenhousegas emissions. Taking the cap-and-trade funding out of thebudget will give them more time to negotiate a way to spendthat money.WHY IS THERE A VOTE MONDAY IF THERE’S NO DEAL

    Lawmakers want to continue getting paid. Under Proposition25 passed by voters in 2010, state lawmakers have to pass abalanced budget by June 15 or forfeit pay.

    Where things stand

    By Juliet WilliamsTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

    SACRAMENTO — Federal agenciespledged another $110 million in aid Fridayto help s tates struggling with the cripplingdrought after President Barack Obama talkedto leaders from seven western st ates.

    The president met by phone and videolink for about an hour with th e governors of Arizona, California, Colorado, Montana,Oregon, and Wyoming and with the lieu-tenant governor of Utah, according to theWhite House.

    The funding announced Friday includes:— $18 million for a jobs program to help

    as many as 1,000 Californians who areunemployed because of t he drought get t em-porary jobs doing drought-related work oras part of programs to help make communi-ties more drought-resistant. The administ ra-tion cited a recent University of Californiastudy estimating 18,000 lost jobs inCalifornia.

    “It also provides a much needed infusionof economic support right back into th esecommunities that need it,” said AssistantSecretary of Labor for Employment andTraining Portia Wu on a conference callwith reporters.

    • $30 million to extend a program sofarmers who suffer one or two years of exceptionally low production because of the drought do not lose crop insurance.

    • $10 mi llio n to reduce the th reat of wild-

    fires by cleaning up landscapes so they areless prone to fires.

    • $6.5 million in grants for water man-agement improvement projects.

    • $7 mill ion t o address the drought-relatedneeds of water utili ties and households.

    Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack,Environmental Protection Administrator

    Gina McCarthy, Federal EmergencyManagement Agency Administrator CraigFugate, Deputy Interior Secretary MikeConnor and Wu were among those on thecall.

    Representatives of those agencies saidthe $110 million in new spending comes ontop of $190 million already pledged inshort-term help for the states and in addi-tion to other programs aimed at makinglong-term changes.

    California Gov. J erry Brown, a Democrat,said his state has already seen more thanhalf a million acres gone fallow and thou-sands of job losses.

    “This aid will provide new opportunitiesfor farmworkers and rural communities mostimpacted by the drought and make the statemore water-efficient an d drought resil ient, ”he said in a statement.

    Officials also used the call to promotelegislation by congressional Republicansto s peed up ti mber harvests and the removalof underbrush that the U.S. Forest Servicedeemed necessary, which the Obama admin-istration supports.

    The administration has warned of poten-

    tially catastrophic wildfires this summer inthe Southwest and Northwest, and is fore-casting costs of more than $200 millionabove th e budget for federal firefight ing .

    Forest Service officials say the budgetingsystem requires them to shift money fromfire-prevention efforts to firefighting,exacerbating fire problems.

    A man with o ne of the l onges t crim-inal records the San Mateo CountyDistrict Attorney’s Office has everencountered changed his plea to notguilty after he was caught with numer-ous baggies of methamphetamine hid-den in two pairs of underwear he woreinto county jail.

    Bobby William Wilcox, a 52-year-old Redwood City resident also knownas Bobb y Chung, has decided to face a

     jury despite pleading no cont est April29 to charges he smuggled nine bagsof drugs in a pair of men’s underwearand girl’s panties, according to prose-cutors.

    Wilcox, who has 53 prior convic-tions, was stopped by a sheriff’sdeputy who recognized him in SanBruno Jan. 17. Wilcox, who was onprobation and open to search andseizure, had two warrants for h is arrest,according to the District Attorney’sOffice.

    The deputy took Wilcox to jail and,as part of the no rmal bookin g process,was searched. Wilcox was allegedly

    wearing two pairs of underwear, aman’s pair that contained two baggiesof methamphetamine and a pair of lit-tle girl’s panties that had seven bag-gies of methamphetamine, accordingto the District Attorney’s Office.

    Wilcox said the drugs weren’t his,according to the District Attorney’sOffice.

    Wilcox’s 33-year criminal historyincludes 29 felonies and he has been tostate prison eight times — one of thelongest record District Attorney SteveWagstaffe said he’s ever encountered.

    Wilcox originally pleaded nolo con-tendere and was set for imposition of sentence Friday in front of San MateoCounty Superior Court Judge JosephBergeron, who originally promised no

    prison time in exchange for the plea.Instead, Wilcox decided he wanted togo to a jury trial and prove his inno-cence, according t o Wagstaffe.

    Got pot? San Francisco to hostmedical marijuana food fair

    SAN FRANCISCO — If a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down,imagine what a pancake breakfastmight do for medical marijuana.

    Marijuana is only legal for medicalpurposes in California, but that isn’t

    The “Get Baked Sale” happeningSaturday at a food truck hub in SanFrancisco comes as marijuana advo-cates are working to legalize recre-ational use of the drug through astatewide voter init iative in November2016.

    “It’s goi ng to be legal next year, soif we integrate it now, people can come

    see what it’s lik e and have fun, that it ’snot what they think and it’s definitelygoing mainstream,” event creatorJared Stratton said.

    Exp. 6/30/15

    By Charles BabingtonTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

    WASHINGTON — Led by union-backed Democrats, the House delivered astinging blow to President BarackObama on Friday and left his ambitiousglob al trade agenda in serio us doubt.

    Republican leaders, who generally

    support Obama’s trade objectives, sig-naled they might try to revive the pack-age as early as next week. But that couldrequire the shifting of at least 90 voteswithin either or both parties, a heavylift.

    Friday’s setback was deep and person-al for Obama, who made a surprise, last-minute trip to the Capitol to ask HouseDemocrats to back him.

    Not only did they reject him by thedozens, they were led by party leaderNancy Pelosi of California, who hasoften expressed deep admiration for thepresident. She joined in a tactic thateven so me Democrats called devious andcynical: voting against a favorite job-

    retraining program in order to imperilthe trade package’s main component:“fast track” negotiating authority forObama.

    Hours earlier, Obama had specificallyasked Democrats not to do that. But in acrowded House chamber, Pelosi urgedher colleagues to ignore him.

    “Slow down the fast track to get a bet-

    ter deal for the American people,” shesaid, drawing praise from labor unions,liberals and others who say free-tradedeals send U.S. jobs abroad. Pelosiadded possible new burdens to the leg-islative package, saying new highwayfunding and “environmental justice”should be linked to its passage if it’srevived.

    In a statement, Obama said the jobretraining p rogram “would give roughly100,000 American workers access tovital support each year,” and he urgedthe House to pass it as soo n as possib leand send the entire trade package for himto sign.

    Other presidents have had fast track

    authority, which lets th em propose tradeagreements that Congress can ratify orreject but not amend. The administra-tion currently is trying to concludenegotiations with 11 Pacific-rim coun-tries including Japan and Canada. Othertrade agreements could follow.

    One possible route for pro-trade forcesin Congress is to send revised legisla-

    tion back to the Senate. But senatorsapproved the larger package only nar-rowly last month after intense battles,and the White House desperately wantsto avoid giving oppo nents there anoth-er chance to strangle the legislation.

    White House spok esman Josh Earnestsaid Friday’s vote showed congression-al support for fast track, and “our work isnot done yet.” As for Democrats reject-ing th e retraining program, he said, theadministration will contend “they haveregistered their objections to (fast track)and it didn’t work.” Earnest said theadministration will urge Democrats to“support a policy that th ey have strong-ly supported in the past.”

    Officials say secondcyberbreach leakedmilitary, intel dataBy Ken Dilanian and Ted BridisTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

    WASHINGTON — Hackers linked to China have gainedaccess to the sensitive background information submittedby intelligence and military personnel for security clear-ances, U.S. officials said Friday, describing a cyberbreachof federal records dramatically worse than first acknowl-edged.

    The forms authorities believed may have been stolen enmasse, known as Standard Form 86, require applicants tofill out deeply personal info rmation about mental illn esses,drug and alcohol use, past arrests and bankruptcies. Theyalso require the listing of contacts and relatives, potential-ly exposing any foreign relatives of U.S. intelligenceemployees to coercion. Both the applicant’s SocialSecurity number and that of his or her cohabitant isrequired.

    In a statement, the White House said that on June 8,investigators concluded there was “a high degree of confi-dence that .. . systems containing information related to th ebackground investigations of current, former and prospec-tive federal government employees, and those for whom afederal background investi gation was conducted, may havebeen exfiltrated.”

    “This tells the Chinese the identities of almost every-body who has got a United States security clearance,” saidJoel Brenner, a former top U.S. counterintelligence offi-cial. “That makes it very hard for any of those people tofunction as an intelligence officer. The database also tellsthe Chinese an enormous amount of information aboutalmost everyone with a security clearance. That’s a goldmine. It helps you approach and recruit spies.”

    The Office of Personnel Management, which was the tar-get of the hack, did not respond to requests for comment.OPM spokesman Samuel Schumach and Jackie Koszczuk,the director of communications, have consistently saidthere was no evidence that security clearance informationhad been compromis ed.

    The White House statement s aid the hack in to t he securi-ty clearance database was separate from the b reach of feder-al personnel data announced last week — a breach that isitself app earing far worse than first believed. It could not belearned whether t he s ecurity database b reach happened whenan OPM contractor was hacked in 2013, an attack that wasdiscovered last y ear. Members of Con gress received classi-fied briefings about that b reach in September, b ut there wasno public mention of security clearance information beingexposed.

    Nearly all of the millions of security clearance holders,including some CIA, National Security Agency and mili-tary special operations personnel, are potentially exposedin the security clearance breach, the officials said. Morethan 4 million people had been investigated for a securityclearance as of October 2014, according to governmentrecords.

    MILLBRAE –Some say that

    science and religiondon’t mix. Some

    say that science isthe ultimate searchfor God. Some say

    religion supersedesscience, some say both have equal statureand others say both are hogwash. Everyone

    has their own personal assessment of thecorrelation between science and religion.

      The aspiration of religion along with theaspiration of science is to explain theuniverse and answer questions about life, in

    addition to satisfying human psychologicalneeds when dealing with the realities ofdeath. Religion is based on faith, science is

    based on observation, and both are based onhuman curiosity and the need to find

    answers. Whether a person is repetitivelyreading religious scripture, or fascinated byrepeatable scientific experimentations, both

    are searching for methods that answerquestions about the universe around us.

      It can be debated that early humans

    turned to religion as a way to alleviate theirfears and gain reassurance with the concept

    of life after death. This helped to give thema sense of order in a confusing world that

    often seemed mysterious. Eventuallyscientific realization evolved along sidereligion and the process of “trial and error”

    established itself as a way to solve some ofthese mysteries. Fire the wheel farming.

    The more humans observed the world theylived in, the more they leaned how thenatural world worked and how they could

    manipulate it to their advantage. Over thecenturies religious power came at odds with

    scientific discovery, which led to a period of

    scientific stagnation: “The Dark Ages”.Later at the dawn of “The Renaissance”science was again embraced leading to great

    advances in art, architecture, medicine,astronomy and other natural sciences. Over

    the ages science and religion have beenevolving together on a roller coaster ride ofacceptance, denial and equilibrium.

    We now appear to be at a crossroadswhere religion is not only viewing science

    with an evaluative broadmindedness, but isexploring hand in hand with scientificprocesses. One prime example is the

    Vatican’s “Pontifical Academy ofSciences”. Quoting John Paul II: “...today

    eminent scientists are members a visiblesign of the profound harmony that canexist between the truths of science and the

    truths of faith...”. Gregor Mendel, the fatherof Genetics, was an Augustinian Friar.

    Georges Lemaitre, who developed much ofthe Big Bang Theory, was a Belgian priest.Recently, Pope Francis, who has a Master’s

    Degree in Chemistry, insisted that there isno reason to believe that science and God

    are incompatible.With all this in mind, every human being

    is unique as a fingerprint, and every humanbrain has its own unique consciousness.

    Whether you analyze with your religious capor your science cap, matrimony between the

    two could be found by looking inward. So,close your eyes, examine your deepthoughts, and you may detect a rational

    enlightenment finely attuned to both.If you ever wish to discuss cremation,

    funeral matters or want to make pre-planning arrangements please feel free tocall me and my staff at the CHAPEL OF

    THE HIGHLANDS in Millbrae at (650)588-5116 and we will be happy to guide you

    Saudi airstrikesdestroy historicYemen housesBy Ahmed Al-HajTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

    SANAA, Yemen — Saudi-ledairstrikes targeting Shiite rebelsand their allies in Yemendestroyed historic houses onFriday in the center of the capital,Sanaa, a UNESCO world heritagesite. Rescue teams diggingthrough the debris pulled the bod-ies of si x civili ans from under therubble.

    The bombing drew swift condem-nation from the U.N. culturalagency, whose chief expressed sor-row at the loss of human life andthe destruction of priceless archi-tectural heritage.

    Yemen’s conflict has left mil-lions of the Arab world’s poorestnation in dire need of humanitarianassistance in just about everything— from fuel to water, food, elec-tricity and medical supplies — ascivilians are increasingly caughtin the crossfire.

    Also, early on Friday, randomshelling killed 12 civilians in thesouthwestern city of Taiz, whichwitnessed some of the fiercest bat-tles between rebels and southernfighters, witnesses and officialssaid.

    In the Sanaa airstrikes, residentsinitially believed the warplaneshad targeted a house occupied by asenior rebel commander, but offi-cials and witnesses later said there

    were no Shiite rebels among thevictims.

    The impact of the missiles flat-tened at least three houses andcaused cracks in surrounding build-ings, which are cemented to oneanother, leaving large sections of the old city’s district at the risk of collapse.

    At a destroyed four-story build-ing, an Associated Press reportersaw a pile of bricks, dust and woodmingled with clothes, kitchenwareand water tanks, which are tradi-tionally kept on roofs. An adjacentthree-story building was split inhalf, wooden window frames dan-gling from the upper floors. Rescueworkers were covered with dust asthey s earched for victims.

    Most of the old city’s three-to-four-story buildings had been emp-tied out weeks ago, as their resi-dents left in fear of the airstrikes.The Saudi-led coalition launchedthe campaign in March, in an effortto halt the power grab by Yemen’sShiite rebels, known as Houthis.U.N.-brokered peace talks are dueto start end of the week in Genevain an attempt to end the conflict.

    Mohammed al-Raddni, a neigh-bor whose grandfather lives n extdoor to one of the destroyedbuildings, said those killed inFriday’s airstrikes included threewomen and two men, one of whom was a doctor. A 16-year-oldteenager remains under the rub-

    ble, said al-Raddni.“What do they want from us?

    This is unfair. Why don’t they gosearch for Houthis somewhereelse,” shouted Zahwa Hammoud, anelderly woman dressed in tradition-al Yemeni clothing, as she lookedat the damage.

    Hammoud, one of few residentsremaining in the neighborhood,said there was a “deafening soundthat made me feel my ears explod-ing” when the missi les struck.

    A police car with a loudspeakerurged residents to stay away fromthe rubble.

    Online activists posted photo-graphs of the damaged parts of theold city of Sanaa, known as al-

    Qasimi. The old city dates back2,5 00 years and is one of the mostpopular and historic to urist attrac-tions in the Yemeni capital, famousfor its decorated buildings made of packed earth with burnt brick tow-ers.

    UNESCO’s general director con-demned the att ack that t argeted “theworld’s oldest jewels of Islamicurban landscape” and expressingsorrow for the loss of liv es.

    “I am shocked by the images of these magnificent many-storiedtower-houses and serene gardensreduced to rubble,” Irina Bokovasaid in the statement. She urged thewarring parties t o p reserve th e her-itage of Yemen, which “bears the

    soul of the Yemeni people” and“belongs to all h umankind.”

    UNESCO said that since thebeginning of the conflict, severalhistoric monuments across Yemenhave suffered damage. It said thaton June 9, the Ottoman era al-Owrdhi historical compound, out-side the walls of Sanaa’s old city,was severely damaged.

    In recent days, airstrikes dam-aged an eight-century Great Dam of Marib, in eastern Yemen, as well asthe ancient castle of al-Qahira inthe southwestern city of Taiz andthe Dhamar Museum, which ho usesthousands of artifacts, south of Sanaa, reported the state-run antiq-uities agency.

    DES MOINES, Iowa — The IowaRepublican straw poll, once a staple cam-paign event fo r GOP presidential candidates,is vanishing because of waning interestfrom 2016 hopefuls.

    The governing board for the Republican

    Party of Iowa voted unanimously during aprivate conference call Friday to drop theevent, said state GOP Chairman Jeff Kaufmann. It was scheduled to b e held in thecentral Iowa city of Boone o n Aug. 8.

    Republican officials wanted to make surenegativity surrounding the straw poll didn’thurt Iowa’s traditional place in holding thefirst votes of the presidential nominationcontest, with its leadoff caucuses.Kaufmann said he was particularly con-cerned that GOP candidates were feelingunnecessary pressure to participate in theevent.

    “You spend more time gaming your owncandidates rather than worrying aboutHillary Clinton,” he said, referring to theDemocratic Party’s front-runner for the pres-idential nomination. “That’s not how a

    first-in-the-nation state acts. A first-in-the-nation state has to roll out the welcomemat.”

    Since 1979, th e straw poll h as been heldevery summer before a contested presiden-tial caucus and grew from a county fundrais-er to a spl ashy event where candidates spentlavishly to bus in and entertain supporters.While the carnival-like event is beloved byIowa’s pol itical activists, critics say it hasbecome a costly sideshow, and many candi-dates fear the humiliation of a poor show-ing.

    For years, the po ll has b een considered anearly but unreliable test of strength in pres-idential campaigns. In the six polls con-

    ducted since its first year, the winner hasgone on to win the state caucuses threetimes. The eventual Republican nomineehas won the poll on ly twice.

    An indication of the poll’s demise thisyear was the reluctance of 2016 GOP hope-fuls to commit to attending it. FormerArkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, formerFlorida Gov. Jeb Bush and South CarolinaSen. Lindsey Graham were among thosewho said they would skip the event. Otherssaid they would not spend money to partici-pate.

    Jimmy Centers, a spokesman for IowaGov. Terry Branstad, said the state partyofficials “made a decision based on whatthey b elieved was best” for the party and thecaucuses.

    In fact, Branstad was a leading prop onentof ending the straw poll. He said inDecember the event was a turnoff for manycandidates and could diminis h th e impact of the caucuses. “The most important thing isto keep the Iowa precinct caucuses first inthe nation and the first real test of strengthof candidates,” h e said then.

    State party officials debated the event’sfuture in January but at t hat po int decided to

    keep it. In an effort to appease concerns, t heofficials told candidates they would nolonger have to bid up to $3 5,000 for spaceto pitch tents at the event.

    In 2011, about 17,000 people turned outfor the poll, far fewer than the roughly120 ,00 0 who voted in the January 2012 cau-cuses. Candidate Michele Bachmann spent$2 million on the straw poll and won, butshe left the race after a poor showing in theIowa caucuses. The eventual GOP presiden-tial nominee, Mitt Romney, did not partici-pate in the straw poll.

    Still, Kaufmann didn’t rule out a return tothe straw poll in coming years, if partyactivis ts want it and if candidates will come.

    KESSARRAT, Iraq — Ali Ahsan pacedback and forth carrying a rifle morethan half his height in the searing heatas his militi a convoy made a pit stop inthe Anbar desert to rest and pray.

    Unlike the rugged men in fatiguesaround him, his prepubescent face hasbarely sprung a whisker. Now thatschool is out, the petite 14-year-old isspending his summer break fightingthe Islamic State group with his fatherand other members of Iraq’s PopularMobilization Forces, which includesthe Shiite militias.

    “I’m here because it’s my duty,” thestone-faced boy in blue jeans said,

    referring to an edict from Iraq’s highestShiite religious authority last year.“The Popular Mobilization Forces arenot sectarian forces. They represent allof Iraq, and I want to h elp th em liberateIraq.” Despite concerns over height-ened sectarian strife, Shi ite milit iamencontinue to pour into Iraq’s Sunniheartland of Anbar province with theinitial hope of recapturing Fallujah,the first major Iraqi city to fall to theIslamic State group last year.

    As the U.S. prepares to send an addi-tional 450 personnel to Iraq, theIranian-backed militias say that coali-tion assi stance only hurts their efforts,contradicting statements by the Iraqigovernment that more internationalsupport is needed.

    IS fighters captured Anbar’s prov in-cial capital of Ramadi last month,prompting Defense Secretary AshCarter to lament that the U.S.-trainedIraqi troops lacked “the will to fight.”The Popular Mobilization Forces werecalled to battle in Anbar after the fall of Ramadi, despite concerns that theirinvolvement in the province wouldantagonize the Sunni population, andthey are now setting their sights onFallujah. “We think the liberation of Fallujah will allow us to enter Ramadiwithout any fighting, so the battle thatwe are preparing is the battle of Fallujah,” Hadi al-Amiri, the head of the Popular Mobilization Forces, told

     journali sts Friday at an outpost on theSalahuddin-Anbar border.

    Police said there were four or five peop le in the car when

    it exploded Friday afternoon in the district of Torslanda.The local rescue service could only say t here were multip leinjuries and possible fatalities.

    The cause of t he blast was not i mmediately clear.Rescue spo kesman Boss e Andersson said th e car explod-

    ed in a roundabout near a fire station. When rescuers fromthe fire station arrived at the scene they found the car“severely demolis hed,” he said.

    Eyewitness Janne Wollt in t old Swedish Radio that h e wasdriving into the roundabout when the explosion happened.

    “And I saw how, I th ink it was the roo f, flew up in the air,”he said. “It was a very strong blast.”

    Police said they were question ing witnesses and cordonedoff the area to allow experts to investigate the wreckage.

    Located on th e country’s southwestern coast, Goteborg isSweden’s second largest city. It’s seen a surge in violentshowdowns between rival criminal gangs, including arestaurant shooting in March that left two people dead andabout a dozen injured.

    Former IMF chiefStrauss-Kahn acquitted in pimping trial

    LILLE, France — Dominique Strauss-Kahn had a causticreaction as four years of legal battles involv ing sex charges

    on t wo continents ended without a singleconviction : “All that for this?”

    From a sordid New York h otel encounterto orgies in Paris, the formerInternational Monetary Fund chief hasadmitted to questionable behavior thatdestroyed his political career and onetimepresidential ambitio ns. He’s a sexual li b-ertine, by his own admission. But courtshave repeatedly found no grounds to con-

    vict him as a criminal.Friday’s ruling in the northern Frenchcity of Lille closed a sometimes surreal chapter for Strauss-Kahn and for France, where the unusual public airing of hisprivate life sent shockwaves through society and upendedhigh-level politics. Some Frenchwomen hoped the DSKscandal, as it became known, would make it easier to holdpowerful men accountable for sexual wrongdoing — a hopelargely unfulfilled.

    In a packed courtroom Friday, a p anel of judges acquitted allbut one of the 13 defendants o f accusations of invo lvementin a prostitution ring. Strauss-Kahn faced charges of “aggra-vated pimping,” but the judges said he was not involved inhiring th e prostitutes involved or paying them.

    That’s what Strauss-Kahn said all along: “All that forthis?” he scoffed as he rose to leave the courtroom with h isgirlfriend and adult daught er. “What a waste.”

    French airport police detain

    6-year-old girl in ID crackdownPARIS — Paris airport police held a 6-year-old French girl

    for three days on suspicion sh e had a fake passpo rt — until a judge ordered her released int o her mother’s arms, a l awyersaid Friday.

    Authorities i nsist that pol ice were just doing t heir jobs t oprotect children from trafficking, but the case has causedindignation in France amid sensitive debate over policetreatment of waves of undocumented migrants coming toEurope in recent months.

    The girl was detained Saturday at Charles de Gaulle ai rport,after arriving from Cameroon, said lawyer Sidonie Leoue.The girl was traveling as an unaccompanied minor carryingall necessary documents, and her mother was waiting at theParis airport to greet her, Leoue said.

    She waited three days.Police thought the girl’s passport photo didn’t resemble

    her, and suspected a fake, according to the lawyer and theFrench Interior Ministry.

    Attackers seize 10 employeesat Tunisian consulate in Libya

    TUNIS, Tunisia — An armed militia stormed into theTunisian general consulate in Libya’s capital on Friday, tak-ing 10 employees hostage, officials said.

    Mokhtar Chaouachi, a spok esman for the Tunisian ForeignMinistry, said it was not clear whether the attackers wereholding th e hostages o n sit e or had taken them elsewhere. Healso said he did not know whether the attackers had openedfire or had made any demands in exchange for the captives.

    NEW YORK — A setback in talksbetween Greece and its creditorshelped knock the stock market lower

    on Friday, amid renewed concernsthat the country could default on itsdebts.

    Despite the drop, the Standard &Poor’s 500 index managed to eke outa 1-point gain for the week, snap-ping a two-week slump.

    An unexpected decision by theInternational Mon etary Fund to walkaway from talks with Greece spurredthe selling. At a summit meeting inBrussels late Thursday, the IMFpulled its negotiators out of talkswith Greece, saying there had beenno progress and that major differ-ences remained on key issues.Without a deal by the end of themonth, Greece faces the prospect of going bankrupt and dropping theeuro currency.

    Markets are likely to make suddenturns until Greece and its creditorsreach a deal, s aid Ninh Chung, h ead of investment strategy at SVB AssetManagement. Earlier this week,stocks on both s ides of th e Atlanticrallied on reports of progress in thetalks.

    “There had been optimism over

    Greece,” Chung said, “and now itseems like we’ve had a complete 180 .”

    The S&P 500 slipped 14.75 poin ts,or 0.7 percent, to close at 2,09 4.11.The Dow Jones in dustrial average fell140.53 points, or 0.8 percent, to

    17,898.84, and the Nasdaq compos-ite lost 31.41 p oints, or 0. 6 percent,to 5,051.10.

    The losses were modest but broad:All 30 companies in the Dow and all10 in dustries in t he S&P 500 fin ishedwith losses.

    Speculation over Greece’s fate andthe Federal Reserve’s first interestrate increase have weighed on mar-kets over recent weeks. Many thinkan improving U.S. economy willpush the Fed to raise its benchmarkinterest rate later this year for thefirst time since the Great Recession.The Fed’s ultra-cheap interest rateshave helped fuel the six-year bullmarket in stocks.

    “I’m not sure the downside riskwith Greece is as big as investorsbelieve, but it’s caught investors’attention,” said Jack Ablin, chief investment officer at BMO PrivateBank. “It’s the same with the Fedtightening.”

    Major indexes in Europe slumpedon Friday, wipin g out gains from ear-lier in the week. Greece’s market fellthe most, with the main Athens i ndex

    down 6 percent. Germany’s DAX sank1.2 percent, and the CAC-40 inFrance finished with a loss of 1.4percent. Britain’s FTSE 100 lost 1percent.

    In Asia, J apan’s Nikkei 2 25 in ched

    up 0.1 percent. In China, theShanghai composite index advanced0.9 percent, and Hong Kong’s HangSeng rose 1.4 percent.

    Back in the U.S., shares of Wingstop vaulted 61 percent in theirfirst day of trading as a public compa-ny. The chicken-wings chain raised$110.2 million in its initial publicoffering late Thursday, sell ing sharesat $19 each. Wingstop soared $11.59to $30.59.

    Government bond prices wavered,finishing the day slightly lower. Theyield on the10 -year Treasury in chedup to 2.39 percent from 2.38 percentthe day before.

    In metals trading, gold fell $1.20to settle at $1,179.20 an ounce,while silver slipped 14 cents to$15. 83 an ounce. Copper picked up apenny to $2. 68 a pound.

    Oil fell for a second straight dayafter reaching a high for the year onWednesday. Benchmark crude oilsank 81 cents to settle at $59.96 abarrel. Brent crude, an internationalbenchmark, dropped $1.24 to $63 .87a barrel.

    Greek jitters upset stock markets

    By Stan ChoeTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

    NEW YORK — Diversify. The financialindustry says you have to do it with yourinvestments.

    But when it comes to who’s running mutu-al funds, diversity can be to ugh to find. Lessthan 1 0 percent of all managers are women,according to a recent tally b y Mornings tar.

    Women make up similarly small percent-ages across the sp ectrum of inv estment pro-fessionals, from money managers to ana-lysts to consultants, according to a study bythe State Street Center for Applied Research.After surveying hundreds of professionalsaround the world, the t hink tank found thatwomen approach investi ng in a complemen-tary way to men.

    Suzanne Duncan, the center’s global headof research, recently talked about why thatmeans better-balanced mutual fund manage-

    ment teams could lead to better results.Answers have been edited for clarity andlength.

    Q: Why should I care that so fewmutual-fund managers are women?

    A: It’s about the return on investment.Men and women approach inv esting very

    differently, but in a complementary way, sodiversification can make a difference when itcomes to managing money.

    It’s about how we’re wired biologically todefine and measure success. Male mutual-fund

    managers tend to focus on outperformingtheir benchmark or their peer group. Theywant to be in the top quartile. The female def-

    initio n of success is not that. It is to achievethe long-term goal. For the professional,that could be her organization’s long-termgoal. Or, for the individual investor, themost common long -term goal is to comfort-ably retire.

    There is no right or wrong answer. We doneed near-term metrics to evaluate success,but we also need to be focused on the long-term goal of what success should actuallyresult in. If you put those together, you canachieve a superior outcome.

    Q: It doesn’t s eem li ke there’s muchresearch sayi ng th at women are betterinvestors than men, in the short- orthe lo ng term.

    A: The more important question in ourview is: Are men, together with women, bet-ter investors? There isn’t research about that,specifically for investment performance,because the sample size is too small. Therearen’t many teams of men and women man-aging money. It just doesn’t happen intoday’s world. But research has been doneabout highl y s uccessful teams i n o ther areas,and it’s not about high IQ. It’s about diversi-ty. One of the characteristics of having ahigh-performing team i s gender diversity.

    Q: How else did you find that malefund managers differ from women?

    A: Men, on average, t end to take credit fortheir decisions when they’re successful. And

    when they’re not successful, they blame oth-ers. Women are the opposite. We don’t takecredit when we’re successful, and we blame

    ourselves when we fail.We asked portfolio managers around theworld: Tell us about a recent successfulinvestment that you made and why were yousuccessful. The No. 1 reason men gave was“my experience.” “My analytical abilities”was No. 2. “My ability to s trip out my emo-tions from my investment decisions” wasNo. 3. My, my, my. All factors that are inter-nal to them. The next question we asked was:Tell us about a recent investment you madethat was not so successful and why. The No.1 reason was “the markets took a turn for theworse.” No. 2 was “bad luck.”

    It’s a coping mechanism to deal with fear.We asked the portfolio managers how manymonths of underperformance it would take tobe fired. The average response was 18months, a very short-term basis. So we endup building this entire system, thi s machine,on a very short-term basis. And we are takingaway from the ability to focus on what weshould, which is the lo ng-term goal.

    Enter the female into the equation.Q: Are you seeing more of a push to

    get more women into these roles?A: Yes, there’s the 30% Club (a group that

    advocates getting more women on boards of directors). The CFA Institute just had theirfirst-ever Women in Investment conference.Gender diversi ty has picked up momentum ina pretty meaningful way. As we’re out there

    doing face-to-face interviews, we find that itis top of the list in terms of not only aware-ness but also execution on what to do about

    the issue. And that’s new. That’s largelysince the financial crisis.Q: Do yo u think it’s because o f the

    crisis?A: The crisis was a very powerful inflec-

    tion point. Everyone is taking a step back.It started with a conversation between

    spouses, and that’s trickling through thewhole system. Males have been mainlyresponsible for the decision making in cou-ples’ finances in this country, and after thefinancial crisis, couples said, “We just lost alot of money. Can we start talking aboutpartnering and making decisions together asopposed to the male making decisions inisolation?”

    That is trickling through the financialadviser community, where the first move-ment has been. Now the mutual-fund man-agers, who are selling their product to thefinancial advisers, now they’re paying atten-tion.

    Think about the DNA of this industry.Think about what these mutual-fund man-agers do on a day-to-day basis. They con-struct diversified portfolios. That’s what welive and breathe in this industry. We have yetto apply diversification when it comes to tal-ent. It i s a huge missed opportunit y. If we cando it for assets and securities, I h ave to thi nkwe can do it for talent. And diversity in g en-eral, not j ust gender but also ethnicity.

    Why it matters that so few mutual fund managers are women

    Court allows contestedcontact lens price-fixing law

    SALT LAKE CITY — A federal appeals court cleared theway for a hotly contested Utah law bannin g price fixing forcontact len ses Friday, a ruling that could have wide-rangin geffects on the $4 billion industry.

    The decision handed down from th e 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver comes after three of the nation’s largestcontact l ens manufacturers sued to halt the measure. AlconLaboratories, Joh nson & Joh nson and Bausch & Lomb con-tend the law is a brazen overreach written to give Utah-based retailer 1-800 Contacts and other discount sellers anillegal end run around minimum prices set by the compa-nies.

    But the Utah attorney general says the companies arewrongly driving up prices, and the law is a legitimateantitrust measure design ed to enhance competitio n and helpcustomers.

    CCS loss won’t define careerBy Nathan MollatDAILY JOURNAL STAFFAragon badminton p layer Candy Zhang was

    attempting to make history this season.As the three-time defending Central Coast

    Section girls’ singles champion, Zhang waslooking to close out her high school careerwith an unprecedented fourth consecutive sec-tion title.

    For Zhang, one of the top junior players inthe country, the only goal was winning CCStitles. She dominated play in the PeninsulaAthletic League and finds very li ttle competi -tion during the league season. Everything shedoes — at the high school level — is to pre-

    pare her for CCS.“Her big challenge was going to be CCS,”

    said Aragon coach Linda Brown. “It’s kind of the way it always is.”

    Unfortunately for Zhang, there would be nocrowning glory. After knocking off top-seed-ed Karen Ma in the winner’s bracket final, thesecond-seeded Zhang lost two straight match-

    es to Ma, ending Zhang’s 14-match winningstreak.

    Those two losses, however, do not diminishan otherwise outstanding season as she is theDaily Journal’s Badminton Player of t he Yearfor the second straight y ear.

    “ I don’t think she was frustrated,” Brownsaid. “She had graduated from high school twodays before (the CCS final). There was somuch going on. I’m not going to yell at herfor not winning.”

    After going undefeated in PAL play and win-ning her fourth straight PAL tournament title,Zhang entered the 2015 CCS tournament on a12-match winning st reak. She went undefeat-ed in her three previous CCS tournaments,

    dropping only one set during that span— winning most of the time in dominatingfashion. In eight o f those matches, h er oppo-nent failed to reach double digits in poin ts dur-ing the best-of-three matches.

    It was obvious during th e 2015 tournament,however, that the rest of the section appearsto be catching up to Zhang’s talents. After a

    first-round bye, she won her winner’s bracketsemifinal match over Gunn’s Angela Lin 21-12, 21-10 to move into the winner’s bracketfinals, where she faced off with Monta Vista’sMa.

    Zhang po sted a 21-17, 12-21, 2 1-14 win forher 14th CCS win in a row and sent her intothe finals for the fourth st raight year.

    Unfortunately, that would be Zhang’s lasthigh school win. With that initial loss, Madropped into the loser’s bracket final, whereshe won to advance to the championshipround against Zhang, who needed to be beatentwice to be denied the championship.

    Ma went on to win four consecutive sets toend Zhang’s reign .

    But given Zhang’s hectic schedule, she did-n’t have a lot of time to focus solely on bad-minton. Zhang was also the captain of Aragon’s robotics team and took a number of trips while deciding on which college shewanted to attend.

    It’s been 40 years since Golden State won a title, but Warriors fans havestuck by the team through the thin times. Many believe this is the yearthe Warriors end the championship drought.

    THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

    OAKLAND — Gary Liss sti ll hasthe ticket from Game 2 of the 1975NBA Finals in h is wallet. The seatcost just $10, but watching theGolden State Warriors win the titleremains a priceless memory.

    “World champions? That’s a hardthing to do,” said Liss, who hasbeen a season-ticket holder sincethe Warriors moved fromPhiladelphia in 1962.

    For many loyal fans like Liss, it

    has been a long and grueling waitto experience that moment again.

    The Warriors will play theirbigg est game in a generation whenthey host LeBron James and theCleveland Cavaliers on Sundaynigh t in Game 5 of th e NBA Finals.The best-of-seven series is tied attwo games apiece, and the antici-pation is equally exciting andexhausting in Oakland.

    It has been 40 years — thelongest span between finalsappearances in league history —since the franchise’s long-suffer-ing fans could feel such a rush.

    After decades of bad drafts, terribletrades and lots of losses, the mosthardened Warriors supporters aresoaking in every second of thisrun.

    “It’s just magical. There’s nevergoing to be another season likeit,” s aid Leslie Sosnick, a 61-year-old fan from Oakland. “All I’veever wanted is to have a go od prod-uct on the court.”

    Sosnick first saw a goo d productwhen her father, Peter, t ook her toa Warriors game in San Franciscoto celebrate her 9th birthday. Shewatched Wilt Chamberlain from

    the upper deck and thought t he BigDipper looked slow and small.

    She eventually found her waybehind the basket when the teamwarmed up before the second half and got an up-close lo ok at th e sizeand speed of NBA players. Sosnickhas been ho oked ever since.

    Her father died in 1978 and hermother passed away abo ut 15 yearsago, but she has held on to a cher-ished family heirloom for morethan 50 years: Warriors season-tickets.

    So much is brand new aboutAmerica’s oldest golf champi-onship.

    Not to worry. The U.S. Openhasn’t lost its reputation as thetoughest test in g olf. And it’s stillthe most democratic of the majors,with more than half the field —including a pair o f two-time cham-pions — having to go throughqualifying.

    Just about everything else at the115th U.S. Open is breaking newground, starting with where it isbeing played.

    Chambers Bay, a public courseperched along Puget Sound southof Seattle, for more th an a centurywas a sand and gravel pit used formining. Ten years ago, it was stillbeing built. And now it’s the firstU.S. Open in the PacificNorthwest, and the first major inthe area since Vijay Sin gh won t hePGA Championship in 1998 at

    Sahalee. No other golf course hasbeen awarded a U.S. Open so s oonafter it open ed.

    Also new this year: Fox Sportswas awarded a 12-year contractthat starts this year. JohnnyMiller no longer will be callingthe shots. That now falls to GregNorman. And Fox will be makingits debut in major championshipgolf with a course hardly anyonehas seen.

    SAN FRANCISCO — Chase Anderson losthis no-hit bid when he got hi t on t he right calf by Buster Posey’s sharp comebacker with o ne

    out in the seventh inning, and the ArizonaDiamondbacks beat th e San Francisco Giants1-0 Friday night.

    Anderson grimaced in pain after the ball ric-ocheted off his leg and rolled toward the third-base line, leaving the Diamondbacks withouta play on Posey’s infield single. But the right -hander finished the inning and outpitchedWorld Series MVP Madison Bumgarner as theGiants lo st their six th straight home game.

    Anderson (2-1) struck out two, walked oneand plunked No. 7 hitter Matt Duffy twicebefore giving way to Daniel Hudson in theeighth.

    Exhausted Giants shut down

    By Joe Resnick THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

    ANAHEIM — Mike Trout and Kole Calhoundrove in the tying and go-ahead runs witheighth-inning homers, leading the LosAngeles Angels to a seesaw 5-4 victory overthe Oakland Athletics on Friday night.

    Josh Reddick had given the A’s a 4-3 l ead inthe seventh with a two-run shot againstFernando Salas. That put starter Jesse Chavezin line for a victory after Brett Lawrie andJosh Phegley supported him with back-to-back homers in the fourth against HectorSantiago.

    But Evan Scribner (1-1) served up Trout’s18th of the season leading off the eighth,then retired Albert Pujols on a towering fly tothe warning track in left before Calhoundrove a 1-0 pitch deep into the seats in rightfor his sixth of the season. It was the fourthlead change o f the game.

    Jose Alvarez (1-1) pitched a perfect eighthfor the victory and Huston Street got threeouts for his 18th s ave in 20 attempts, retiringReddick on a fly ball to center with his 26th

    pitch of the ninth and runners at first and sec-ond.

    Trout led off the sixth with a single, Pujolsfollowed with a double and Calhoun drovethem both in with a single up the middle onChavez’s next pitch. Johnny Giavotella thenbarely beat out a grounder to third, but wascalled out by umpire Chris Conroy.

    Television replays confirmed that the runnerwas safe, but Angels manager Mike Sciosciawas out of challenges by then after burning anearlier one in which Oakland’s Mark Canha’ssteal of second base in the third inning wasupheld. Scioscia charged out of the dugout afterthe Giavotella ruling and had a lengthy one-way argument with Conroy before he wasejected.

    Santiago threw 106 pitches in 5 2-3innings, allowing two runs and seven hitswith six strikeouts and a walk before leavingwith a 2-1 deficit. He was 3-0 with a 1.01 ERAin his six previous career starts againstOakland.

    After stranding a runner at second base ineach of the first three innings, Santiago retiredthe first two batters in the fourth before Lawrie

    ended an 0-for-16 drought with his sixth homerand Phegley hit h is second four pitches l ater.

    It was the second time this season that anopposing team has gone back-to-back againstthe Angels. On May 3, Jered Weaver
