Rent control impact weighed


Broad-level analysis dives into economic impact on San Mateo
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

In contemplating the financial


impacts to the city of San Mateo if
a ballot measure instituting rent
control passes in the November
election, officials will consider a
brief economic analysis Monday
night.
According to the study conducted by a Bay Area expert, over time
the proposed measure may slight-

ly reduce property tax revenue, and


fees charged to landlords would be
needed to support a requisite housing commission with an anticipated $2 million budget and
approximately 10 dedicated city
employees.
After the council adhered to its
legal requirement and placed the
citizen-initiated proposal on the
ballot Aug. 1, officials heeded
opponents request and sought a
study on the potential economic

impacts to the city.


Monday, Aug. 15, the council
will consider the report with information from staff and a review by
Dr. Stephen Barton the former
deputy director of the Berkeley
Rent Stabilization Program who
has authored several academic
studies and analyzed the economic
impacts of rent control in
Berkeley and East Palo Alto.

Alleged baby killer


faces eight felonies
A man accused of murdering his girlfriends 18-month-old son and lying to
cover it will head to trial
to face eight felonies.
Marco
Antonio
Alvarado-Cisneros, 25,
had a preliminary hearing Thursday on the
alleged 2014 murder
along with allegations
he abused his girlfriend,
according to prosecuMarco
tors.
AlvaradoAl v a r a do - C i s n e r o s
Cisneros
was caring for his girlfriends baby, Dante
Nava, on Aug. 12, 2014, at their apartment
just outside Redwood City as she went to
work. That night, the suspect called 911 to
report that the baby was not breathing and
may have had a seizure, according to prosecutors.
Alvarado-Cisneros claimed to paramedics
that the baby may have fallen off the bed
and had a seizure but an autopsy revealed
numerous injuries including several human,
adult bite marks, according to prosecutors.
He continued to live with his 21-year-old
girlfriend after the babys death and they
had another child together, according to
prosecutors.
In September 2015, the mother reported
numerous domestic violence attacks and
that the defendant had kidnapped and
robbed her. A subsequent investigation led
to his arrest for the murder of the child,
according to prosecutors.
A Stanford physician along with several
other witnesses were called during
Thursdays preliminary hearing. AlvaradoCisneros was held to stand trial for murder,
two counts of kidnapping, robbery, three
domestic violence charges and false

imprisonment, according to prosecutors.
He remains in custody on no bail and was

arraignment.

Police seize 100 marijuana plants


A Foster City man was arrested Thursday
on allegations he was manufacturing marijuana hash oil at his residence and running
an illegal grow operation out of a San
Mateo home where nearly 100 plants were
seized, according to police.
Carly Drake, 38, was arrested at his home
on the 300 block of Port Royal Avenue
after police served a search warrant around
7:30 a.m., said San Mateo police Sgt. Rick
Decker.
A two-month investigation sparked by a
tip to the citys Crime Reduction Unit led
police to Drakes Foster City residence
where equipment used to manufacture hash
oil a concentrated form of marijuana
with high levels of THC was found,
Decker said.
Police then descended on a home on the
1900 block of La Playa Street in San Mateo
where they discovered an indoor grow operation for which Drake was allegedly
responsible. Police seized more than 100
marijuana plants and as a matter of precaution, were joined by members of the countys health department and hazmat team,
Decker said.
No one lived at the home where the large
amount of marijuana was being grown and
it appears Drake used his Foster City residence to manufacture hash oil that he later
sold, Decker said.
Decker also dispelled initial rumors that
Drake was involved in money laundering.
Drake was arrested on at least four
felonies related to manufacturing and distributing hash oil, as well as the illegal

grow operation, Decker said.

Auto repair employee pleads


not guilty to drugging coworker
An employee at a San Mateo County auto
repair shop slipped methamphetamine into
his coworkers drink on Monday, sending
him to the hospital, prosecutors said.
Jose Daniel Calvillorios, 42, pleaded not
guilty on Thursday to poisoning his
coworker at Torres Auto Repair at 2905
Flood Ave., according to the San Mateo
County District Attorneys Office. He
remains in jail on $100,000 bail and is set
to return to court on Aug. 23.
His coworker bought a Snapple from a
nearby food truck at about 8 a.m. that day
and started drinking it, but at times left it
unattended. About 20 minutes later, he
started feeling sick; he felt warm, nauseous, sweaty and numb, prosecutors said.
The victim asked Calvillorios whether he
had put something in his drink, but
Calvillorios denied it. At about 5 p.m.,
feeling worse, he asked Calvillorios again
and he admitted to putting something in his
drink to help him relax and have longerlasting sex.
He wouldnt admit what it was, though.
The victim went home but kept feeling
worse that evening so he went to Stanford
Hospital. A urine test revealed the presence
of methamphetamine.
Another employee at the shop reported
that Calvillorios admitted putting something in the victims drink. When
Calvillorios was searched, he was found
with a small amount of meth and a pipe,
according to prosecutors.

Why the dolphin was not eating, which

Dream Dinners fights hunger


By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Hundreds of volunteers will gather in San


Mateo this weekend to help assemble meal
packages for thousands of families in need
locally and internationally.
Jenn Robinson, managing partner of
Belmont Dream Dinners, is hosting the
Fight Against Hunger event Saturday where
7,500 protein- and vitamin-rich meal packages will come together before being distributed to nonprofit Samaritan House and
internationally to families in Haiti.
The packages can feed 45,000 people and
will help provide the wholesome experience
of gathering a family around the dinner table
to those who might otherwise be unable to
afford a meal, Robinson said.
Food is such a basic need. If youre waking up and not knowing where your food is
going to come from, the whole day then
thats really all you can work on,
Robinson said. Food insecurity starts to
affect your body, you dont have the energy
that I think a lot of us take for granted.
Robinson and her husband own the local
franchise of Dream Dinners, a business that
helps families assemble weeks worth of
meals within an hour. Customers come in,
can have all of the ingredients available and
pre-portioned, complete the prep work for
multiple meals they then take them home to
cook later, Robinson said.
She initially got involved as a customer
of the Belmont franchise before opting to
purchase the business about four years ago.
Now, she hopes the fundraiser led in collaboration with Dream Dinners nonprofit
subsidiary the Living the Dream Foundation
and the nonprofit Friends and Family
Community Connection will provide the
experiences that attracted her to the company in the first place.
What brought me to become a customer
was that I really wanted to have those family dinners around the table as often as possible during the week, several times a week,
with at the time my young children. And I
just found it was so much work, but Dream
Dinners made it simpler and took a lot of the
planning and the chore of doing the grocery
shopping, finding the recipes, they helped
me finish those chores in a way that I
enjoy, Robinson said.
The Fight Against Hunger packaging

events are relatively new to the company


and nonprofit, but Robinson attended one
in Washington that sparked her interest.
I felt like it would be a great thing to
bring to the Peninsula. Its a fun event, its
very fast paced, everyones having a good
time. Its very serious in that youre packaging meals, but youre also having fun,
Robinson said. People of all ages can participate and in the other community service
Ive done, I love things that you can bring
your kids to. So I wanted to bring it back
here and share that.
They raised $14,000 to support the event
through a grant from the foundation, several large donations from local Episcopal
churches, as well as contributions from
friends and businesses, Robinson said.
About 250 volunteers have signed up
and theres room for another 20 or 30 people who want to participate, Robinson
said.
They partnered up with Samaritan House, a
San Mateo-based social services nonprofit,
through which about 250 of the meal packages able to feed 15,000 people will be distributed. The remainder will be sent to Haiti
and distributed by the Friends and Family
Community Connection, Robinson said.
The meals are designed to combat malnutrition and are comprised of rice, dehydrated
vegetables, soy protein and vitamins. Not
immediately perishable, they can last up to
three years and only water is needed to prepare them, she said.
Robinson said she was pleased to learn
from Samaritan House representatives how
the packages could help local families and
children.
Its just nice to hear from them how much
they think the food will help, Robinson
said. Its a nice food product, and since its
shelf stable, if families run out of other food
or theyre low on money, this can sit there
and be there for that emergency supply.
And it will feed kids that are in school with
all of our kids, they wont be hungry, theyll
be able to be a part of the classroom and be
able to participate.

Mississippi woman gets 12-year


sentence on terrorism charge
OXFORD, Miss. A Mississippi woman
who tried to join the Islamic State group
sought to apologize at sentencing
Thursday, tearful as a federal judge ordered
her to spend 12 years in prison on a terrorism charge.
Vicksburg native Jaelyn Young, who once
sought to disguise a planned journey to
Syria as her honeymoon, told U.S. District
Judge Sharion Aycock that she finds what
she did surreal, adding she felt shame over
her actions and sorrow for the humiliation
she caused her family.
I wasnt myself. I said and did things that
were so contrary to me, the 20-year-old
Young said, hunching her shoulders as she
broke down in sobs. Much of this remains
surreal to me.
When things really began to snap back
into place, then I began to feel shame,
Young added.
Aycock, in addition to ordering prison
time, also sentenced Young to 15 years of
probation, including a requirement that she
undergo mental health treatment and that
probation officers be allowed to search her
electronic devices to ensure she wasnt
engaging in any pro-terrorist activity
online.

Containment of big
California wildfires increases
BIG SUR Firefighters gained more
ground Thursday against two of Californias
big wildfires as forecasters predicted the
onset of statewide warming with high temperatures in interior areas.
The 109-square-mile blaze burning for
three weeks in the Big Sur region south of
Monterey Bay was 55 percent contained
after minimal overnight activity.

More than 400 structures remained threatened by the blaze that has destroyed 57
homes and 11 outbuildings and damaged
three residences.
One person has been killed in a bulldozer
accident and three other injuries have been
reported since the fire was ignited by an
illegal campfire on July 22.
In the inland region 60 miles east of Los
Angeles, firefighters established containment lines around 70 percent of a 12-squaremile forest fire between Lake Arrowhead in
the San Bernardino Mountains and the city
of Hesperia in the high desert to the north.
Voluntary evacuation advisories for areas
of Hesperia, Apple Valley and Summit
Valley were lifted but all mountain-area closures remained in effect. Pacific Crest Trail
also remained closed through the area.

California island foxes removed


from endangered species list
LOS ANGELES Not long ago, foxes
native to the Channel Islands off the
California coast teetered on the edge of
extinction.
They have rebounded to the point where
U.S. wildlife officials on Thursday removed
three subspecies of island fox from the roster of federally endangered species, hailing
their comeback as the fastest recovery of
any mammal listed under the Endangered
Species Act.
The diminutive foxes that roam San
Miguel, Santa Rosa and Santa Cruz islands
were placed on the endangered list in 2004
after their populations were nearly wiped
out by golden eagles.
Scientists credited the swift recovery to
an effort to relocate predators and breed
foxes in captivity so they can be reintroduced to the wild.

Gay high school students


raped, attacked more often
By Mike Stobbe
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Gay, lesbian and bisexual


high school students are far more likely
than their classmates to be raped or assaulted in a dating situation, according to the
first national survey of its kind.
The research also found gay teens were far
more likely to have attempted suicide, taken
illegal drugs and engaged in other risky
behaviors.
The finding echoes results of smaller surveys and findings from advocacy groups,
but it is the first government survey to look
at the issues across the entire country.
For years, advocacy groups have been
saying gay and lesbian kids are more often
bullied, ostracized and at high risk for many
other problems. But earlier research by the
government was limited to a small number
of states and cities. The new survey includes
students in rural areas and other parts of the
U.S.
This is the first time we can say that
nationwide these are consistent challenges
faced by lesbian, gay and bi- youth, said
David W. Bond of The Trevor Project, a
national suicide-prevention organization
focused on gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender youth.
Shontay Richardson says the survey
reflects her experience in high school.
Theres of course the physical bullying,
but also the emotional bullying that takes
place, she said.
Now 24 and a graduate student at Purchase
College in suburban New York, she says she
was lesbian but tried to hide it from her
classmates. Still, she was seen as different.

She was ostracized by her classmates and


sexually assaulted by a boy she knew, she
said.
The research results are based on responses from about 15,600 students to an anonymous survey conducted last year by the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The CDC released the report Thursday.
Of the survey participants, about 2 percent said they were gay or lesbian, 6 percent
said they were bisexual and 3 percent said
they werent sure of their sexual identity.
That suggests that of the 16 million students who attended public and private high
schools last year, roughly 321,000 were
gay or lesbian and 964,000 were bisexual,
CDC officials said.

Among the findings:

Nearly 1 in 5 of the gay, lesbian and Visitors walk through the Wynwood arts district of Miami, Fla.
bisexual students said theyd been raped at
some point in their lives, compared to 1 in
20 heterosexual students.
Nearly 1 in 5 who had gone out with
someone in the past year said their date had
hit them, slammed them against a wall, or
committed some other form of physical violence. That was more than twice what
straight kids reported.
About 1 in 3 said they had been bullied
at school, while 1 in 5 straight kids had.
More than 1 in 10 said theyd missed
school the past month because of safety
concerns. Less than 1 in 20 heterosexual
kids reported that.
More than 1 in 4 said they has attempted suicide in the previous 12 months. In
contrast, about 1 in 16 straight kids reported recent suicide attempts.

Florida Zika cases rise to 25


as back-to-school day nears
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MIAMI Floridas caseload of Zika


spread by Miami mosquitoes has risen to 25,
and U.S. health officials continue to warn
pregnant women to avoid the infection zone
despite the governors assurances that the
area of concern is shrinking.
Floridas Department of Health says active
transmission has been only happening in a
1-square-mile area encompassing Miamis
Wynwood arts district.
Scotts office also announced that the
health department has declared four blocks
in the southwest corner of Wynwood to be
clear of infections as preventative measures
continue, in addition to another 10-block
section cleared last week.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention, however, still advises pregnant
women to avoid the entire neighborhood.
All I can say is the travel advisory is still in
effect, CDC spokesman Tom Skinner said.
Zika is a mosquito-borne virus that only
causes mild, flu-like symptoms in most people. But it can cause severe brain-related

Back-to-school day is Aug. 22 in Miami,
and while students returning to class in
Wynwood will be allowed to wear pants and
long-sleeved shirts that dont match their
school uniforms, they still cant bring mosquito repellent to campus.
Miami-Dade County Public Schools
Superintendent Alberto Carvalho said at a
school board meeting Wednesday that
aggressive application of repellent should
be done at home, not at school where some
students may be allergic to the spray. Some
4,000 students attend six schools in the
Wynwood arts district.
The Miami Herald reports that state health
workers will be stationed at each school to
check for mosquito breeding sites and provide parents with repellent.
Aerial spraying of pesticides targeting
adult mosquitoes was scheduled Friday over
Wynwood as well as surrounding areas, and
tablets of larvae-eating bacteria are being
dropped into storm drains throughout
Miami-Dade County.

Clinton knocks outlandish Trumpian ideas in policy speech


By Catherine Lucey and Lisa Lerer
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WARREN, Mich. Her political fortunes


flourishing, Hillary Clinton attempted to
undercut Donald Trumps claim to workingclass voters Thursday, portraying her
Republican rival as untrustworthy on economic issues and pushing policies that
would only benefit the super-wealthy
himself included.
The Democratic presidential nominee
sought to seize momentum as Republicans
including Trump struck an almost
defeatist note about their Election Day
chances. As Republican leaders sounded
alarms about Trumps unconventional
approach, Clinton attacked what she dubbed
outlandish Trumpian ideas that have been
rejected by both parties.
Based on what we know from the Trump
campaign, he wants America to work for him
and his friends, at the expense of everyone
else, she said after touring a Michigan
manufacturing facility.
Appearing in a county known for socalled Reagan Democrats working-class
Democrats who voted Republican in the
1980s Clinton tried to win back some of
the blue-collar voters who have formed the
base of her rivals support, making the case
that she offers a steadier roadmap for economic growth and prosperity.
I can provide serious, steady leadership
that can find common ground and build on it
based on hard but respectful bargaining,
she said. I just dont think insults and bullying is how were going to get things
done.
Clinton, who frequently boasts about her
numerous policy plans, didnt offer any new,

major ideas to improve


the countrys economy in
her afternoon address.
She reiterated her strong
opposition to the TransPacific Partnership trade
deal, leaving herself little room for backtracking
should she win the White
Donald Trump House.
I oppose it now, Ill
oppose it after the election, and Ill oppose
it as President, she said, while also noting
that the U.S. should not cut itself off from
the rest of the world.
Clinton once called the TPP the gold
standard of trade deals when she served as
Obamas secretary of state, but she
announced her opposition to the deal last
year, saying it did not meet her standard for
creating jobs, raising wages and protecting
national security.
Hoping to keep the pressure on Trump,
Clinton is also planning to release her 2015
tax returns in the coming days. Trump has
said he wont release his until an IRS audit is
complete, breaking tradition with every
presidential candidate in recent history.
A source close to Clinton said she would
soon release her return, supplementing the
decades of filings she and her husband have
already made public. Her running mate,
Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine, and his wife will
also release the last 10 years of their taxes.
The source spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the plans in advance.
Clintons appearance followed Trumps
own speech on the economy, which he
delivered in Michigan on Monday. But his
scripted remarks were quickly eclipsed by
the latest in a series of blunders and contro-

REUTERS

versial statements that appear to have handed Clintons campaign a boost in the polls,
particularly with Republican women and
college-educated voters who make up a key
piece of the GOP base.
Just hours before her address, Trump
unleashed another round of attacks on
Democrats, calling Obama the founder of
the Islamic State militant group and
Clinton its co-founder.
The Republican presidential nominee
brushed off conservative radio commentator
Hugh Hewitts attempt to reframe Trumps
observation as one that said Obamas foreign policy created the conditions in Iraq
and Syria that allowed IS to thrive.

No, I meant hes the founder of ISIS. I


do, Trump said, using another acronym for
the extremist group that has wreaked havoc
from the Middle East to European cities.
The latest bit of controversy shook
Republicans, already rattled by polling
showing Trump losing support among
women and other segments of their partys
base.
Dozens of frustrated Republicans gathered
signatures Thursday for a letter to
Republican National Committee Chairman
Reince Priebus that urges the party chief to
stop helping Trump and instead focus GOP
resources on protecting vulnerable Senate
and House candidates.

U.S. government wont reclassify marijuana, allows research


By Alicia A. Caldwell
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The Obama administration has decided marijuana will remain on


the list of most dangerous drugs, fully
rebuffing growing support across the country for broad legalization, but said it will
allow more research into its medical uses.
The decision to expand research into marijuanas medical potential could pave the
way for the drug to be moved to a lesser category. Heroin, peyote and marijuana,
among others, are considered Schedule I
drugs because they have no medical application; cocaine and opiates, for example,
have medical uses and, while still illegal
for recreational use, are designated
Schedule II drugs.
The Drug Enforcement Administration
said the agencys decision came after a
lengthy review and consultation with the
Health and Human Services Department,
which said marijuana has a high potential

If the scientific understanding about


marijuana changes and it could change then
the decision could change. ... But we will remain tethered to
science, as we must, and as the statute demands. It certainly would
be odd to rely on science when it suits us and ignore it otherwise.
DEA acting administrator Chuck Rosenberg

for abuse and no accepted medical use.


The decision means that pot will remain
illegal for any purpose under federal law,
despite laws in 25 states and District of
Columbia that have legalized pot for either
medicinal or recreational use.
Advocates have long pushed for the federal government to follow suit.
If the scientific understanding about
marijuana changes and it could change
then the decision could change, DEA
acting administrator Chuck Rosenberg
wrote in a letter to the governors of Rhode
Island and Washington, who sought the

review of marijuanas classification in


2011. But we will remain tethered to science, as we must, and as the statute
demands. It certainly would be odd to rely
on science when it suits us and ignore it
otherwise.
Rosenberg said designating marijuana a
Schedule I drug does not necessarily mean it
is as dangerous as other drugs.
It is best not to think of drug scheduling as an escalating danger scale
rather, specific statutory criteria (based
on medical and scientific evidence) determine into which schedule a substance is

placed, Rosenberg wrote.


The Food and Drug Administration said
agency officials reviewed more than 500
studies on the use of medical marijuana,
identifying only 11 that met the agency
standards for legitimate testing. For various reasons, none of the trials demonstrated an accepted medical use, the agency
concluded.
The FDA last evaluated marijuana for
medical use in 2006 and said in its latest
review that the available research has progressed, but does not meet federal standards of safety or effectiveness.
While the DEA wont reclassify marijuana, the agency did announce plans to make
it easier for researchers to study pots possible medical benefits by expanding the
number of entities that can legally grow
marijuana for research purposes.
Currently only researchers at the
University of Mississippi are allowed to
grow marijuana, as part of a contract with
the National Institute on Drug Abuse.

Millbrae Community Center rebuild


By Marge Colapietro

here is no doubt that Millbrae


residents, our fantastic
employees who go above and
beyond the scope of their duties, community groups and businesses alike
are very resilient and for them we are
most grateful.
Our neighbors to the north, south,
east and west, including local legislators and public ofcials have stepped
forward to lend their services and support. The extremely well-prepared
reghters, law enforcement ofcers
and other rst responders are to be
highly commended for the exemplary
job they did while ghting the very
devastating re that destroyed one of
the most beloved and important gathering places in the community.
Throughout the many hours of
heavy winds, roaring ames, smoke
and exhaustion not one person was
injured. I truly believe it was due to
the Lords blessing, good fortune that
the center was closed and to the universal training of the rst responders
throughout San Mateo County. This is
yet another example of the tremendous value of shared services, single
source personnel training and everyone being on the same page at the
same time. Our community was a
leader in the county that recognized

the value of partnerships with our


neighbors for both
re and law
enforcement services. This horric
incident, the aftermath, the recovery
and rebuild will forever leave a scar
and wound in the mind and hearts of
our community and the history of our
city. We shall together recover,
together rebuild, and together always
be grateful for the Millbrae Miracle.
I wish to commend our Mayor Anne
Oliva and Vice Mayor Reuben Holober
for their leadership in convening the
City Council and residents together
for a special town hall meeting Aug. 8
with a specic goal to express
thoughts and desires for the resurrection and rebuild of a completely new
community center. What is most
important is that the entire council
made it very clear they were there to
listen and the end result will be the
resurrection of a center conceived by
the residents for the residents. I hope
and trust that will be the case.
Needless to say, the wish list was
mammoth spanning needs from our
most young to our most senior and
from the most simple to the most
extravagant. Reality set in when the
question arose from the audience
about how to pay for improvements

beyond what the insurance settlement
will be. Readers may read a more
detailed report in the Aug. 10 Daily
Journal and also utilize: mctv.tv,
ci.millbrae.ca.us, millbrae2040.com
and other social media sites.
We have city staff assigned to the
daily business of operating our city.
Those obligations must be continued
and expedited to keep us whole and
functioning as a thriving government
agency.
I very strongly encourage the
mayor and councilmembers to see to
it that they not lose sight of the
ongoing annual revenue stream that
will be generated by the two development projects that surround the
Millbrae BART Station. Please move
these development proposals forward
ASAP so construction can commence.
Time is of the essence. The current
economic conditions wont last forever.

Plans to urbanize El Camino
Editor,
Theres a plan to urbanize the old
Taxis Hamburgers site with one of
the denser housing projects the city
has received in some time, said San
Mateo senior planner Tricia Schimpp.
This is the rst project in the area
thats taking a stab at urbanizing this
portion of San Mateo and bringing
the building to the front of the
street, according to the architects
project manager. Its all in the Aug. 8
edition of the Daily Journal (Plans
for 74 new condos at Taxis site:
Hillsdale Terrace housing proposal
for El Camino Real in San Mateo).
It would be the only ve-story residential project on the El Camino Real
sidewalk for at least 5 miles north and
south. The most similar project is 73
units at 490 El Camino Real,
Belmont, the 7-Eleven location.
However, its one to four stories on 2
acres with green space. This proposal
is ve stories on 1 acre, stretching
from 27th to 28th Avenue.
Theres no room for greenspace; its
on the roof. Likewise, this transit-

and his followers that MuslimAmericans do, in fact, ght and die
for our country. A clear fact that the
Csaba Szerenyi has ignored.
As far as comparing apples to
oranges, the deaths of the brave
Americans working at the U.S.
Embassy in Benghazi, Libya, where
they were killed by local insurgents
or militia, and Hillary Clinton had
nothing to do with it. Asking Clinton
what did she sacrice for her country
doesnt make any sense and has nothing to do with Khan and the death of
his son. Please keep those facts
straight.

An adventure
in cable cars

hough I was born in San Francisco, I had never


ridden a cable car in my youth. The bus, heck
yeah. All over. But a cable car? No. In fact, the
first time was around 15 years ago, or jeez even longer
than that, and I just jumped on to catch a lift to Union
Square from the top of the hill. I didnt pay a fare, but
would have. But no one asked. Felt old-timey.
On a recent Monday, everyone in my immediate family
took the day off ostensibly to continue reorganizing the
house after the disruption of a new and comfy, albeit
larger, couch and with it a newish television to replace
the 20-year-old tube one that had planted itself on one
side of the living room for the seven years we have
called our house home. That process is itself its own column, but it involves storage solutions and finding new
spaces for our growing number of toys, and really could
be seen as rather boring to those who have either been
there, done that or hope to never get close. To put it simply, our house is in a transitional period.
And no one wanted to contend with that on this
Monday, what with the weather being nice and all. So we
decided to hit the city. Maybe
check out the new location of
the Exploratorium. You know,
science!
We thought we were being
smart by going on a Monday
since it wouldnt be crowded. I
know there are public transit
options, and weve done that.
But this was a spur-of-themoment thing and sometimes
just under 5-year-old legs dont want to walk all those
blocks. So we drove. Late morning, the traffic was
decent, but we couldnt find a suitable parking spot once
we arrived. The lots were $25 flat rate and all the street
parking was two hour only, which I suppose could have
been OK if we hustled. But we didnt want to hustle. And I
didnt want to pay $25. My local yokel spots all yielded
the same results. I dont think its always been like this
and if it wasnt, when exactly did this change?
Anyway, time for an audible. What about riding a cable
car?
Everyone was on board for that idea and so off to the
Cannery we went with fingers crossed that our parking
luck would be better. It was, though I like to think my
institutional knowledge helped. With a four-hour spot so
expensive it met our ashtray coin capacity, we trudged
over the Powell/Hyde turnaround.
And holy cow, will you look at that line! Granted it is
summer, and tourists are into cable cars, but I didnt
expect more than an hour wait. If it were up to me (and
my wife) we would have figured out something else to do
but once you ask a just under 5-year-old if she wants to
ride a cable car, you have to ride a cable car. So we waited, and waited. And waited. Listening to a bad singer
playing bad guitar and interspersing his sad set by asking typical tourist-oriented questions like who here is
celebrating an anniversary? Kill me.
But our daughter was a champ, waiting patiently for
the ride while the workers moved in slow motion. Im
thinking cable car operator is the cushiest MUNI gig
there is. So one hour and 15 minutes later and four oneway $7 tickets in hand (daughter is free for three more
months), we headed up the hill in more-than-140-yearold technology ricketing and racketing all the way. Im
not sure how long the whole trip took, but we had to
head back to line pretty much right away to ensure we
could make it back to our car all the way on the other
side of the city. The line at Market Street moved faster
and I was glad to see these MUNI workers had a bit of
pep to their step. Forty-five minutes later we were back
on another cable car ready to head back up the hill. I was
admonished for ripping the stub of the ticket before the
ticket taker arrived to ask even though the last ticket
taker told us to do exactly that. He also slammed the door
seemingly because he was annoyed by the loud tourist
chatter, which trapped us in the noise. But oh well. My
daughter still fell asleep amid the racket (and the ricket?). I was thinking how thirsty and hungry I was. We
made it back with a half an hour to spare on the meter
and headed off. Three-and-a-half hours for the round trip.
But we did it and my daughter said she loved it, even
though she fell asleep.
Now, she can say she rode a cable car, and I can say
Ive done it two times. Never again. I mean really, never
again. I left my heart for this kind of thing in San
Francisco.

Stock indexes close at record highs; oil up


By Alex Veiga

DOW JONES INDUSTRIALS

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Strong gains by energy companies and retailers helped nudge


each of the major U.S. stocks
indexes to a record high close
Thursday, erasing mild losses
from the day before.
The Standard & Poors 500
index and Nasdaq composite had
previously hit new highs last
Friday. The Nasdaq also notched a
record close on Tuesday.
Investors welcomed some better-than-expected
quarterly
results from Macys and Kohls,
which spurred gains for several
other big retail chains.
Energy stocks led the rally, getting a boost from a surge in oil
prices. An industry report
released Thursday projected a
more even balance in the supply
and demand for oil this year.
Its been such an oversupplied
market for a long period of time,
to get that supply-demand closer
to being in balance, or to be in
balance, is a huge driver, said
David Chalupnik, head of equities
for Nuveen Asset Management.

The Dow Jones industrial average climbed 117.86 points, or
0.6 percent, to 18,613.52. The
average is now up about 0.1 percent from its last record set July
20.
The S&P 500 index added 10.30

ite index gained 23.81 points, or


0.5 percent, to 5,228.40. It edged
up 0.1 percent from its previous
high.
The latest market milestones
reflect investors improved confidence in the U.S. economy of
late. Strong job growth, more
stable oil prices and a crop of better-than-expected company earnings have helped lift stocks in
recent weeks.
Still, overall earnings for com-

panies in the S&P 500 are expected to be down 2.2 percent for the
second quarter, according to S&P
Global Market Intelligence.
Were still looking at negative
earnings
growth,
albeit
improved, and negative revenue
growth, said Tim Dreiling,
regional investment director for
U. S. Banks Private Client
Reserve. In order for stocks to
continue to make new highs and
continue to grind higher, were

going to need to see some


improvement in revenues and see
some improvement in earnings in
the second half of 2016.
The major stock indexes got off
to a strong start early Thursday,
bouncing back from slight losses
a day earlier.
Traders bid up oil prices in
response to the International
Energy Agencys latest forecast.
The agency said it expects that
supply and demand for oil will be
more in balance the rest of this
year. It also projected that global
oil demand wont grow as much as
it previously expected next year,
citing a weaker global economy.
Benchmark U. S. crude rose
$1.78, or 4.3 percent, to close at
$43. 49 a barrel in New York.
Brent crude, used to price international oils, gained $1.99, or 4.3
percent, to close at $46.04 in
London.
Several oil and gas companies
got a boost from the rise in crude
prices. Devon Energy added
$1. 74, or 4. 4 percent, to
$41. 31,
while Chesapeake
Energy rose 23 cents, or 4.8 percent, to $5.03.

Department stores hope to recapture appeal, be destinations


Macys plans to close about 100
stores, boost online investment
By Anne dInnocenzio
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Macys plans to close


about 100 stores next year and boost its
online investments, the nations largest
department store chain said Thursday, as it
tries to become more nimble in an increasingly fierce market. The closures represent
close to 14 percent of its stores under the
Macys brand.
The
company,
which
operates
Bloomingdales stores as well, said it
would increase its exclusive products and
would prioritize its investments in the
stores that offer the highest growth potential.
That follows Macys move to shutter 40

stores this spring, and comes as Macys


reported another quarter of falling profits
and sales. But the results were better than
analysts feared. Summer weather helped
drive sales of clothing, and Macys says
its seeing results from efforts to add sales
staff and revamping its fine jewelry area.
Its shares rose 17 percent, or $5.80 to
$39.80 in midday trading.
The announcements we are making
today represent an advancement in our
thinking on the role of the stores, the
quality of the shopping experience we
will deliver, and how and where we reinvest in our business for growth, said
Macys President Jeff Gennette, who will
succeed Terry J. Lundgren as CEO early
next year.

NEW YORK Department stores trying


to recapture their appeal to consumers are
making plans to provide more experiences
like spas and restaurants, and offer exclusive
selections to transforms the store into more
of a destination.
With shoppers increasingly buying
online or from niche retailers and discount
stores, the onetime pillars of retail are trying to rethink their business to keep up with
consumers who want a different experience
in stores than they find on their phones.
That includes more attentive sales staff,
pampering guests with beauty treatments
and bringing in new kinds of merchandise.
Its all about creating the experience in
the store, said Saks Fifth Avenue president
Marc Metrick. Theyll shop here. Theyll
eat here. Theyll get their hair done here.
Theyll meet their friends here.
Macys announced plans Thursday for recreating Macys physical store presence to
adjust to customer tastes. It reported another quarter of falling profits and sales, though
it said some moves like sprucing up its fine
jewelry area and adding back some sales
staff are helping. It also said itll close 100
stores early next year on top of the 40 it
closed this spring.
The company, which is preparing for a
new CEO to take over, has also launched its
own off-price chain and is testing an artificial intelligence tool that would free up
sales assistants to provide higher levels of
customer service.
We operate in a fast-changing world, and
our company is moving forward decisively
to build further on Macys heritage as a preferred shopping destination for fashion,

Delta computer outage


included small fire at data center
NEW YORK As flight cancelations and
delays move into their fourth day, Delta Air
Lines isnt providing details on a small
fire Monday at its data center and whether
that fire or attempts to extinguish it
compounded the airlines troubles.
Deltas problems started early Monday
morning when a piece of electrical component at its Atlanta headquarters failed, CEO
Ed Bastian told the Associated Press on
Wednesday.
That led to a shutdown of the transformer
providing power to the airlines data center.
The system moved to backup power but not

quality, value and convenience, said Terry


J. Lundgren, chairman and outgoing CEO of
Macys Inc.
Macys had been a stellar performer after
the Great Recession but has seen slower
sales growth in the past year and a half.
Under Lundgren, the company looked for
growth opportunities like buying upscale
beauty brand Bluemercury and is adding
services like same-day delivery.
The changes come against the backdrop of
declining sales and customer traffic.
Kohls Corp., which saw total secondquarter sales drop 2.1 percent even as cutting expenses helped its profit, is similarly
testing off-price stores, smaller-format
stores, investing more in e-commerce and
sprucing up its beauty business.
Nordstrom, which reported revenue of
$3.65 billion for the second quarter, meeting Wall Street forecasts, has scaled back on
inventory to meet lower sales. But its also
focusing on brands that have limited distribution like Ivy Park and Madewell. Its also
personalizing its online services this
fall, its testing a mobile feature that lets
customers reserve products online and try
them on at the store. And J.C. Penney, set to
report Friday, has brought back major appliances, after abandoning that category 30
years ago, to lessen its dependence on
clothing.
Saks Fifth Avenue is renovating its
Manhattan flagship location, with a new
layout that encourages more browsing and
that makes room for expanded beauty offerings such as brow bars. Elements of that
renovation will be incorporated across
other stores, Metrick said. Saks also just
rolled out new technology from a startup
called Salesfloor that delivers personalized
service for its online shoppers.

Business brief
all of the servers were connected to that
source, which caused the cascading problem.
But that initial failure also caused a fire.
The airline is refusing to detail the extent of
that fire and the damage it caused.
The equipment failure sparked a small
fire. It was put out immediately and there
was no need to call the fire department,
Delta spokesman Trebor Banstetter said via
email Thursday.
The airline would not say how the fire was
extinguished or if the means of putting it
out damaged any other electrical equipment
or any of the computer servers.

Hillsdale football, once buried in the depths of the PAL, have worked its way to the Bay Division
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

When Mike Parodi took over the Hillsdale


football program prior to the 2009 season,
the Knights were among the dregs of the
Peninsula Athletic League.
From 2001 to 2008, the Knights compiled a
record of 12-65-2, with four wins being the
teams high-water mark in 2005. From 2006
to 2008, the Knights won a total of three
games.
When the PAL expanded to three divisions
in 2009 the Bay, Ocean and Lake
Hillsdale was one of the founding members
of the lowest division, the Lake.
Seven years later, the Knights transition is
complete. After moving up the ladder from the
Lake Division to the Ocean Division in 2013,
Parodi and the Knights have completed their
quest of moving into PALs toughest division
the Bay by winning the 2015 Ocean
Division title and advancing to the Central
Coast Section Division IV championship
game.
This was my goal when I came here in 09,
Parodi said. You want to be at the top (level).

But as Parodi said, be


careful what you wish for.
Moving into the Bay
Division is just the first
step. Now, Hillsdale has to
prove it belongs.
Weve earned the right
to be here, Parodi said.
Now we have to do someMike Parodi thing about it.
There is a new team in
the Bay Division nearly every year as the
Ocean Division champion, more often than
not, accepts the promotion to the Bay. The
challenge is, however, developing a program
that has staying power in the Bay, not a team
that constantly bounces back and forth. Its
not uncommon to see a newly-minted Bay
Division squad be one-and-done.
Thats what we dont want to be, Parodi
said. When I got to the Bay, I wanted it to be
for good.
Parodi realizes he needs to implement tactics and strategies program-wide if he wants to
play against the PALs top teams for years to

NFLs first female coach expects more to follow


By John Wawrow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PITTSFORD, N.Y. Reserved and unaccustomed to the spotlight, Kathryn Smith still
has difficulty putting into perspective what
its like to be the NFLs first full-time female
assistant coach.
Its crazy, Smith says when reminded of
the nationwide attention shes drawn
including a retweet by Chelsea Clinton in
the eight months since Rex Ryan promoted
her to be Buffalo Bills special teams quality
control coach.
Though it was Smiths intention to pursue a
career in athletics when choosing to major in
sports management at St. Johns in 2003, she
never knew where that path might eventually
lead. Football was an option. So was basketball.
And the 31-year-old three-sport high school
athlete from suburban Syracuse, New York,
never anticipated she would one day be recognized for breaking the gender barrier of North
Americas most popular sport.
If that makes Smith somewhat of a reluctant

Johnson hurt his right knee during the
second practice of training camp while getting up to run downfield after making a diving catch. The nine-year pro underwent surgery Tuesday and was told Wednesday that
his season was done.
Johnson, whos often used as a slot
receiver, missed six games last year with
hamstring and groin issues. He had 45
catches for three touchdowns and 497 yards.
The Chargers signed free agent James

Smith under his wing by promoting her to be
his administrative assistant. Ryan then
brought her to Buffalo when he was hired by
the Bills in January 2015. He elevated her to
the position of administrative assistant to his
assistant coaches, with a particular emphasis
on special teams.
Aside from working with coordinator
Danny Crossman, Smith also gained an
opportunity to interact with players. She did
such a good job that Crossman wasnt surprised in January when Ryan informed him of
his plan to promote Smith.
Coaching is teaching, and teaching is
communicating, Crossman says. So a hard
worker whos a good communicator and works
hard, yeah, why not?
Now, its on Smith to find her voice and
niche, Crossman said.
I think shes still finding it, he says, noting Smiths true development will start once
the Bills begin playing games.
That comes Saturday, when Smith will be on
the sideline for Buffalos preseason opener
against Indianapolis.

trail blazer, then so be it.


Thats not been my
focus, Smith says of generating headlines. But, at
the same time, if that
shows somebody if you
work hard that you can do
whatever you set your
mind to, and if thats the
Kathryn Smith message thats getting
across to girls, boys,
whoever it is, then I think thats a good
thing.
What would be even better is if Smith gained
some female company on NFL sidelines.
I dont think its as far down the road as
maybe other people do, she says. I might be
the first. But I dont think Ill be the only one
for very long.
Women have gradually made inroads in professional football, first at the executive and
ownership levels, and now on the field.
The first real glimpses began last summer
when Jen Welter served a six-week training
camp internship coaching Arizona Cardinals
inside linebackers. And then theres Sarah

Thomas, who last year became the NFLs first


full-time female on-field official.
Tony Dungy believes the trend will grow.
The future is unlimited, the former coach
said last week before his induction into the
Pro Football Hall of Fame. We will see female
coaches because they can coach the game. We
see females officiating in the NBA and the
NFL. Its just a matter of time that well see
more.
The key, Dungy says, is for head coaches to
begin thinking outside the box, as Ryan and
Arizonas Bruce Arians have done.
For so long, we had a characterization of
what we thought coaches were, and now a
number of coaches are going against the
grain, he said. Coaches should not be fit in
boxes.
Its not as if women dont follow football.
The NFL says 52.6 million female viewers
watched this years Super Bowl, the second
most behind last years game.
Smiths ascension into coaching is owed in
large part to Ryan. Upon taking over as New
York Jets coach in 2009, Ryan first noticed
Smiths potential when she worked as the

IRVINE No matter when Jared Goff


relieves starting quarterback Case Keenum or
how much the rookie plays, he will be the
focal point of the Los Angeles Rams preseason opener Saturday.
The No. 1 overall pick
in the 2016 draft got a preview of what kind of attention he can expect going
forward from the season
premiere
of
Hard
Knocks, the HBO documentary series that follows life in an NFL training camp. Goff was shown
Jared Goff
taking a ride on the
Goodyear Blimp, buying
electric fans so offensive players could stay
cool in their dorm rooms at UC Irvine, adjusting to a pro-style scheme, and not remembering where exactly the sun rises.
Goff said Thursday he hasnt heard back
from Taylor Swift after his interest in the pop
star became television fodder, but is hearing
about his sunrise gaffe.
Got a lot of grief from my friends and stuff,
but I thought it was funny, Goff said. I know
it is a TV show and they are trying to make a
story line whatever that may be. That doesnt

bother me. I think its funny and I think its


cool, something I can probably watch for
years to come.
Everything Goff has done during training
camp has drawn plenty of interest.
Goffs media availability attracted more
than a dozen reporters Thursday, while
Keenum spoke to less than half that number
on Monday. While he has been taking snaps
with the first team offense in closed walkthroughs, Goffs first public work with the
starters in a two-minute drill on Tuesday
resulted in a barrage of questions for coach
Jeff Fisher and offensive coordinator Rob
Boras.
That interest will only intensify, but Goff
said he isnt paying heed to the overwhelming attention from fans and media.
Whatever you guys say, take it with a grain
of salt. It doesnt mean much to me, Goff
said. I dont read anything. I dont look at
anything. I just try to do my best every day
out here and get better and do the best I can.
Goff said he believes the tempo of practice
and quality of the Rams defense has him prepared for his first NFL action. He expects to
treat it like every other game he has played in,
though there will be one notable difference as
he will be coming off the bench. Goff, a threeyear starter at California, didnt remember the
last time he did not take the first snap in a
game.

Retweets: College
coaches newest
recruiting tactic
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. A new


NCAA rule change is catching some
recruits by surprise while causing
coaches to debate how much time
they should spend on social media.
Under the change that took effect
last week, athletic department staff
members are allowed to retweet or
show their approval of social media
posts made by recruits. The policy
change has been nicknamed Click,
Dont Type because coaches still
arent allowed to add any sort of comment to a recruits post.
NCAA spokeswoman Emily James
said the Mid-American Conference
proposed the rule change.
Kristin Williams, the MACs associate commissioner for institutional
services, said the original idea from
the leagues coaches was a complete
deregulation of social media usage.
Williams said the idea was modified
to the proposal that eventually
passed because of administrative
concerns that the initial recommendation would turn into an absolute
free-for-all.
Many coaching staffs wasted no
time capitalizing on the new policy.
Tennessee football coach Butch
Jones smiled and shook his right
hand to jokingly symbolize how
tired it had become from all the
retweeting.

can and not let it interfere with our

retweet one of your tweets or favorite
one of your tweets because you know
theyre looking at you and seeing
what you put on social media, said
Rodgers, a 2017 receiving prospect.
Of course, that assumes the coaches are the ones actually doing the
retweeting rather than delegating the
responsibility.
Im sure they feel pretty good
when a college guy is retweeting
their stuff, but is it really the (coach)
or are they putting someone else in
charge of handling that stuff? said
Murfreesboro (Tennessee) Oakland
High coach Kevin Creasy, whose
team includes two seniors who have
committed
to
Southeastern
Conference schools. I dont know a
lot of Division I head coaches sitting around that have time to retweet
what a 16-year-old is putting out
there. I feel like maybe its helping
our unemployment rate go down
because somebodys being hired to
do that.
Different coaches have responded
differently to the new policy.
Mississippis Hugh Freeze said he
personally didnt plan to retweet any
posts from prospects, though a scan
of social media accounts shows that
some of his assistants have done so.
I think thats a poor reason to
choose a school, because a coach
retweeted something, Freeze said.
Im not going to partake in that.
Some of my coaches may, and I
havent instructed them one way or
another on it. I could end up doing it,
but Im indifferent today.

As cant complete sweep of Os


By Michael Wagaman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND The Baltimore


Orioles made a wise decision when
they avoided arbitration and
signed Mark Trumbo to a $9.15
million, one-year contract in the
offseason.
Its shaping up to be a huge bargain.
Trumbo hit a
grand slam for
his
major
l eag ue-l eadi n g
32nd homer and
drove in five
runs
as
Baltimore beat
the
Oakland
Mark Trumbo Athletics 9-6
on Thursday to
avoid a four-game sweep.
Hes had a good season,
Orioles manager Buck Showalter
said. Just because he hasnt been
perfect the last week or so ...
theres a lot of people that would
trade places with him right now
statistically. Were lucky to have
him or we wouldnt be where we
are.
The Orioles had been shut out for
17 straight innings and lost their
lead in the AL East following three
consecutive one-run losses before
Trumbo sparked them.
The All-Star slugger went into
the day mired in an 0-for-13 funk
but hit an RBI single in a three-run
fourth, then connected the next
inning for his third career grand

Orioles 9, As 6
slam.
Theres been a sprinkling of
hard contact but overall the at-bats
havent been that great, Trumbo
said. Thats something I try not
to look too far into. Made a little
bit of an adjustment today and it
worked out all right.
Chris Tillman (15-4) allowed
two runs over seven innings for
his first victory since July 21. He
is Baltimores first 15-game winner since Bud Norris and Wei-Yin
Chen in 2014.
Zach Britton retired three batters
for his AL-leading 35th save this
season and his 37th straight dating to last season. The As loaded
the bases in the ninth after a
replay overturn before Britton got
Danny Valencia to ground out to
end it.
Chris gave us seven solid
innings, Showalter said. I
thought it would be a good day for
us to be able to kind of back off
some guys but Oakland didnt
cooperate.
Andrew Triggs (0-1) was the
eighth starting pitcher in as many
games for the As.
Triggs was pressed into duty
because of Oaklands injury-riddled rotation. He gave up three
runs in four innings.
Adam Jones homered for the
Orioles and Pedro Alvarez drove in
three runs.
Ryon Healy and Max Muncy

homered for the As and Yonder


Alonso doubled in two runs.
Its easy to let down when
youre down by seven runs at one
point but that wasnt the case,
Oakland manager Bob Melvin
said. We continued to fight.

Stop, drop and roll


In addition to his home run,
Healy also made a stellar defensive
play. The rookie third baseman
made a diving stop of Manny
Machados hard-hit grounder in
the first, then tumbled and rolled
as he hit the infield dirt. Healy did
a second 360-turn as he stood up
and threw to first for the out. I
think that play ended up looking
more spectacular than it needed to
be, Healy said. The second spin,
I wouldnt say it was unnecessary
but ... I didnt really know where I
was. The second spin kind of just
happened.

At h l e t i c s : RHP Jesse Hahn

Belgian sailor sick after racing on polluted bay


By Bernie Wilson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

RIO DE JANEIRO A Belgian woman who


won a 2012 bronze medal has become sick,
the first Olympic competitor to fall ill after
sailing the polluted waters of Guanabara Bay.
Evi Van Acker reported feeling sick after
Wednesdays races, the governing body World
Sailing said. Her poor performances have put
her at risk of missing out on a medal in the
Laser Radial class.
Her coach told the Belgian VRT network he
believes Van Acker contracted a severe intestinal infection while training in Rio de Janeiro
last month.
Evi caught a bacteria in early July that causes dysentery, coach Wil Van Bladel said.
Doctors say this can seriously disrupt energy
levels for three months. It became clear yesterday that she lacked energy during tough
conditions. She could not use full force for a
top condition. ... The likelihood that she
caught it here during contact with the water is
very big.
The poor quality of Guanabara Bay was at
the forefront of the buildup to the Olympics.
An independent study by The Associated Press
has shown high levels of viruses in the water
as well as bacteria from human sewage.
Van Acker was evaluated by the chief medical
officer and the Belgian medical team, World
Sailing spokesman Darryl Seibel said. He
added that this appears to be an isolated case
and Van Acker is the only sailor who has
reported feeling ill in the opening days of the
regatta.
Van Acker had a serious gastrointestinal
infection a few weeks ago, the Belgian
Olympic Committee said in a statement. She

REUTERS

Belgian sailor Evi Van Acker, who won a bronze medal in 2012, complained of sickness a day
after Wednesdays races in Rio. During training in Rio in July, Van Acker caught dysentery,
which can affect those stricken by it for upwards of three months.
has not fully recovered. It makes it difficult for
her to go through long periods of sustained
effort. The committee said a physiologist is
working with Van Acker leading to the next
races Friday so she can get the most out of her
energy reserves.
Thursday was a day off for the Laser Radial
fleet.
Olympic officials have insisted that sailing
on the sprawling bay is safe, and sailing officials have said competitors have taken precautions. Even Brazilian sailors have said theres

no danger at least for those who compete


there regularly.
German sailor Erik Heil, however, was treated for several infections he said were caused by
polluted water during a Rio test regatta a year
ago. He sails in the 49er class in which the
two-man crew is splashed the whole race. That
class is also prone to capsizes. The 49er competition begins Friday.
Van Acker, a favorite to return to the podium
in Rio, has had consistently weak performances. She was second and 12th on Monday,

second and 29th Tuesday and then 16th and


15th in tough conditions on Wednesday. Shes
10th overall with four races left before the
medals race. Although that would get her into
the medals race, she has 47 points, currently
26 points out of medals position.
As the games approached, most sailors tried
to deflect talk from the foul water to the competition.
Thats a shame, Denmarks Allan
Norregaard said about Van Ackers illness. I
dont have much comment on that.
Norregaard had been outspoken about the
pollution in Guanabara Bay, particularly the
amount of trash in the water.
Its a lot better now than it was, said
Norregaard, who changed subjects and said the
weather conditions on some courses are just
not suitable for the games. ... Its scandalous.
At a test event a year ago, sailors complained about the stench of sewage flowing
into the harbor at the venue, the Marina da
Gloria, just yards from where the boats are
launched. That problem was fixed earlier this
year when a new sewage system was installed
to stop brown, untreated sludge from being
poured into the small harbor.
Seibel said that every morning World
Sailings medical and technical officials evaluate the latest water quality testing data provided by the government to make certain conditions acceptable.
The standard our team uses in assessing
water quality is the World Health Organization
standard for primary contact (even though
sailing is classified as a secondary contact
sport), Seibel said in an email. For every day
of competition thus far, and in the lead-up to
the games, the water quality has met this standard.

Olympic officer takes wrong turn, shot in the head


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

RIO DE JANEIRO A police officer was


shot in the head after he and two others
working security at the Rio de Janeiro
Olympics got lost near a slum and encountered gunfire.
The officers from Brazils national security force were using a GPS device to navigate
unfamiliar streets Wednesday afternoon
when they took a wrong turn off a highway
leading to Rios international airport. Their
truck was sprayed with bullets, and officer
Helio Vieira was shot. The Justice Ministry
said Vieira was recovering after a four-hour
surgery, and was in stable condition. The
other officers suffered minor injuries when
the windows of their vehicle shattered.

Dozens of heavily armed commandos


could be seen Thursday frisking residents
and going house to house in the Mare complex of slums, one of Rios most crime-ridden areas that is dominated by drug-trafficking gangs. Snipers took up positions on a
nearby highway, as a low-flying police helicopter circled overhead.
Justice Minister Alexandre de Moraes said
two suspects had been identified but were
not yet in custody. He denounced what he
called a cowardly attack.
The incident was the bloodiest of several
that have marred the start of South
Americas first Olympic Games.
On Tuesday, two windows were shattered
on a bus carrying journalists from an
Olympic venue in the impoverished

Deodoro district. Rio organizers said the


bus was hit by a rock, even though one passenger, who identified herself as a former
American military officer, believed the
cause to be gunfire. There were no serious
injuries.
The equestrian venue in Deodoro has had
two brushes with stray gunfire since the
games started. A bullet flew through the roof
of a media tent there Saturday; officials said
it had been fired from a hillside slum, and
that the intended target was probably a security camera on a blimp. A second bullet hit
Wednesday near the stables. Officials were
adding more security at the venue.
Muggings have also been reported among
Olympic athletes, officials and journalists.
Pervasive violence is an everyday part of

life in Rio. After declines in past years,


homicides have spiked again as Brazils
worst recession in decades fuels violence
and forces budget cuts. The number of homicides in the first five months of 2016
increased by 18 percent to 1,870 in greater
Rio.
Police killings are also on the rise, with
the vast majority of victims black residents
of impoverished slums that are fiefdoms of
the citys many criminal gangs.
More than 85,000 security forces double the number present in London in 2012
have been deployed to the city to keep
thousands of Olympic athletes and an estimated 500,000 tourists safe.

Fiji takes rugby gold for Harrison again


golden

judo
first-ever Olympic medal
By Maria Cheng

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

RIO DE JANEIRO Osea


Kolinisau didnt want merely to win
Fijis first ever Olympic gold medal,
he was determined to do it by showing the world how rugby sevens
should be played.
Done, and done.
With his prime minister among the
Fijians in the crowd, and knowing
900,000 more back in the Pacific
expected nothing less than a gold
medal, he kicked off a five-try, firsthalf barrage against Britain in the
gold-medal match by reaching his
arms back over his head as he was
being tackled to score an early try in
the corner.
The long-time entertainers of
rugby sevens peaked in perfect time,
running in for seven tries in a 43-7
win that showcased their fitness,
finesse, physicality and the famous
one-handed passing.
Its a massive achievement to get
a first medal for your country, especially a gold medal, said Kolinisau,
the most-experienced Fijian ever on
the international sevens circuit. The
achievement will be part of our history back home.
After ensuring the victory that had
been in the making since the
International Olympic Committee in
2009 added Fijis national sport to

the program for Rio de Janeiro,
Kolinisau and his teammates huddled
solemnly in the middle of the field
and sang a hymn.
The deeply religious Fiji captain
told his teammates before the match
that it all was all pre-ordained, that
theyd been gifted the countrys best
chance ever to end a six-decade medal
drought at the Olympics.
Its really emotional to lead
ones country, especially to be the
flag bearer, Kolinisau said.
Coming into the final, I knew it was
up for grabs. I told the boys, We
need to have fire in our heart, but
have ice in our mind be cool-headed.
They were smiling by halftime,

leading 29-0, and the dominance


wasnt just with ball in hand they
didnt let the British players cross the
halfway line while in possession.
When these guys are on fire, its
very difficult to combat, Britain
captain Tom Mitchell said. Theyre
very worthy champions.
Ben Ryan, the Englishman who
took over as Fiji coach in 2013 and
applied strict discipline to mold a
naturally-talented team into a consistent, professional unit, said it was
almost perfect.
We did say we wanted to show
people the way to play the Fijian
way, he said. And we were great that
we delivered that in fairly spectacular
fashion.

RIO DE JANEIRO Kayla


Harrison fought her way to judo history. Again.
Harrison became the first American
to defend an Olympic judo title when
she forced Frances Audrey Tcheumeo
to tap out in the final of 78-kg competition at the Rio Games on
Thursday. The victory in Brazil comes
after she won the first judo gold for
the U.S. in London.
With just six seconds left in an otherwise scoreless final, Harrison
trapped Tcheumeo in a move that
threatened to break her arm, forcing
the Frenchwoman to submit and
handing an automatic ippon victory
to the American. Harrison won each
of her fights Thursday with similar
match-ending techniques.
Harrisons coach, Jimmy Pedro,
said her achievement was enormous,
given that there have been no repeat
Olympic judo champions in Rio, and
there were none in London, either.
Harrison was in commanding form.
She won her first two preliminary
fights within minutes after pinning
her opponents to the mat for 20 seconds.
Shes on fire today, very confident
and aggressive, Pedro said.

Harrison and rival Myra Aguiar failed
to materialize. The Brazilian fighter

was beaten on penalties by Tchumeo
in their semifinal bout.
Judo is a sport where the margin of
error is slim to none, Pedro said.
For Kayla to (defend her title), really
is epic.
After Harrison won the Olympic
title in London, she vowed to retire
from the competitive grind of the
Japanese martial art. She wanted to
focus on other things, like becoming
a firefighter.
Harrison endured years of sexual
abuse by a previous judo coach who
was later sentenced to 10 years in
prison and expelled from USA Judo.
She credits training at Pedros judo
academy for her recovery and has said
she hopes her story will inspire other
victims of sexual abuse to speak out.
Harrison becomes only the second
American to take home two Olympic
judo medals after Pedro, himself a
double bronze-medal winner. Having
his protege follow in his footsteps is
an awesome legacy, he said.

Olympic tennis
Nadal assures self, Spain
of at least one medal

Phelps leaves Lochte in his wake


RIO DE JANEIRO Michael Phelps waggled four fingers, recognizing another historic achievement.
Now, hes the first swimmer ever to win the
same event at four straight Olympics.
Ryan Lochte was left in his wake every
time.
In what was billed as the final showdown
between two of Americas greatest swimmers,
Phelps blew away Lochte and everyone
else to win his fourth gold medal of the
Rio Olympics and 22nd overall with a victory in the 200-meter individual medley
Thursday night.
Phelps finished a full body-length ahead
of the field with total dominance on the
breaststroke and freestyle legs, finishing in
1 minute, 54.66 seconds.
Lochte didnt even make it to the podium
this time, after taking two silvers and a
bronze behind Phelps at the last three
Olympics in this event. Leading at the midway point, Lochte faded to fifth.
Japans Kosuke Hagino took the silver,
while Chinas Wang Shun claimed the
bronze.
But Phelps was in a league of his own.
As usual.

Hes got one more individual event at what he


insists will really be his
final Olympics remember, he already retired
once and will be looking to add a fourth straight
gold in the 100 butterfly
to his staggering resume.
Then, hell close out
Michael Phelps
these Olympics in the
4x100 medley relay.
There seems to be little doubt hell go sixfor-six.
Led by Phelps, it was quite a night for the
powerful American team, which picked up two
more golds when Ryan Murphy completed a
sweep of the mens backstroke events in the
200 and Simone Manuel tied 16-year-old
Canadian for the top spot in the 100
freestyle, stunning world-record holder Cate
Campbell of Australia. With the win, Manuel
became the first African-American woman to
win gold in swimming.
Campbell and her younger sister, Bronte,
were hoping to battle for gold after teaming
up to lead Australia to a victory in the 4x100
free relay.
Neither one of them made the podium by
themselves. Cate was under her own worldrecord pace at the turn, but had nothing com-

ing back and fell all the


way to sixth. Bronte was
second at the turn and slid
to fourth at the finish.
Murphy extended redwhite-and-blue dominance
of the backstroke events
that goes back to 1992.
The Barcelona Games
were
the last time the
Ryan Lochte
United States lost a mens
final in those events.
Three days after winning the 100 back,
Murphy touched first again in 1:53.62.
Murphy became the third American man in
the last five Olympics to take both races.
Aaron Peirsol pulled off the sweep at Athens
in 2004, while Lenny Krayzelburg claimed
both golds at the 2000 Sydney Games.
Australias Mitch Larkin grabbed the silver
in 1:53.96, just ahead of Russias Evgeny
Rylov with the bronze in 1:53.97.
The Olympics came to an end for another
U.S. backstroke champion.
Missy Franklin finished 14th in the semifinals of the womens 200 back beating out
only two other swimmers. It was a far cry
from the London Games, where Missy The
Missile became only the second American
woman to take four gold medals in a single
Olympics.

laugh and getting a measure of revenge after losing


bronze in the 2012 allaround final to Mustafina
on a tiebreaker.
It made me not think
about things too much
and made me more confident, Raisman said. I
Aly Raisman knew going into tonight
I was going to get the silver medal because I was going to hit four
events.
Thats because gold has been out of reach
for everyone but Biles for three years and
counting. She arrived in Brazil with 14 world
championship medals 10 of them gold
with routines astonishing in their mix of
ambition and precision.
One last test awaited in Rio, a contest not
so much between Biles and the rest of the
field but between herself and the outsized

expectations her dominance has created.


Anything less than heading back to her
familys home in Spring, Texas, with a fistful of golds would be seen as a disappointment. Biles earned the first one on Tuesday
while serving as the exclamation point to
retiring national team coordinator Martha
Karolyis going away party.
While Biles insisted shes never looked
ahead during her long run at the top, thats
not exactly true.
A portion of her floor exercise routine
the one that includes her signature tumbling
pass is set to Brazilian music that would
fit right at home in the street right outside
Olympic Park. Its not a coincidence.
The girl adopted along with her younger
sister by their grandparents as toddlers and
discovered by coach Aimee Boormans mother during a field trip to the gym is a wonder,
even if it always didnt seem that way.
Biles talent is unmistakable, but it took

time to harness. At one point Boorman


pulled Biles aside and gave her a choice.
Biles could continue to work out 20 hours a
week, attend high school and eventually
become a college gymnast or she could
explore the elite level, a move that included
more intensive training and being home
schooled.
Boorman asked more than once. And every
time the answer came back the same: lets go
for it.
I wanted to see how far I could go in this
sport, she said.
A decision that led to years of sacrifices
and ultimately, the biggest night of her life.
Though Mustafina led through two rotations, it was a mirage. Balance beam and
floor exercise where Biles is the defending
world champion lay in wait. She went
back in front with a 15.433 on beam and
capped it with a 15.933 on floor that Karolyi
called very close to perfection.

RIO DE JANEIRO What was shaping up as


a very long day of Olympic tennis for Rafael
Nadal began shortly after 11 a.m., when he
played the first point of what would become a
victory that put him in the singles quarterfinals.
Then, after a break of less than 2 hours, Nadal
went back out on court for a mens doubles semifinal Thursday and won that, too, assuring himself of leaving the Rio de Janeiro Games with at
least one medal for Spain.
Apparently, though, that was enough for the
14-time Grand Slam champion, who pulled out
of mixed doubles shortly before he was scheduled to pick up his racket yet again in the
evening for a first-round match in that event.
Nadal, the gold medalist in singles eight years
ago, missed the 2012 London Olympics with a
knee injury and spoke about making up for that
in Brazil.
After Wednesdays entire tennis schedule was
washed out because of rain, Nadal resumed his
pursuit of some hardware by beating 15th-seeded Gilles Simon of France 7-6 (5), 6-3 in singles.
Nadals next opponent will get plenty of
home crowd support: Thomaz Bellucci of Brazil.
The other mens quarterfinals: Andy Murray of
Britain vs. Steve Johnson of the United States;
Kei Nishikori of Japan vs. Gael Monfils of
France; and Robert Bautista Agut of Spain vs.
Juan Martin del Potro of Argentina.

Source: LeBron, Cavaliers Player dies at practice in South Carolina


agree on three-year deal
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LeBron James is going to hang


around home for a while.
Fresh off leading Cleveland to
an NBA title, the first for one of
the citys three professional
sports teams in 52 years, James
agreed Thursday to a three-year,
$100 million contract with the
Cavaliers, a person familiar with
the contract told the Associated
Press.
James, who said earlier this summer he intended to re-sign with
Cleveland, will soon sign the
deal, said the person who spoke to
the AP on condition of anonymity
because some details of the deal
need to be finalized.
ESPN. com first reported the
financial terms of James new deal.
The 31-year-old James had been
expected to accept the same oneyear deal he signed in each of his
two previous seasons since returning to Cleveland. However, hes
decided to stay longer to try and
win more championships.
Im re-signing back with the
Cleveland Cavaliers, man, my
hometown team, and I couldnt be

more excited
with
this
o p p o r t un i t y

man, to defend
our
crown,

We all know last year was magical, inspiring, all the words you
can come up with man. It was an
unbelievable season.
I just cant wait to get the group
back together man, the team, the
franchise, and more importantly
get everybody together.
The three-time champion also
used the opportunity to push the
Cavs to re-sign free agent J.R.
Smith, a good friend who is also
represented by James agent, Rich
Paul.
Lets get J. R. done, James
said, laughing. Its that time.
James wanted to rest and
recharge after the finals and
skipped playing in the Rio
Olympics. He won gold medals in
Beijing and London.

Still playing full-time on the PGA

Singh pushed his tee shot right
and bogeyed the par-3 17th. On the
par-4 18th, he hit his second shot to
4 feet. The three-time major champion hit 13 of 14 fairways and 16 of

Hillsdale has implemented a freshman team

if those teams win games or not. Hes more
concerned about players getting prepared to
play at the varsity level.

sity coaches also serves as the freshman and


JV staffs as well.
We do a lot of stuff program-wide. We lift
together, we run together. If we pull a freshman up to varsity, he should know the plays
because we run the same stuff (at all three levels).
While Parodi has an eye on the future as he
remains in the present, the teams focus is
only on this season. The players know they
still have a lot to prove.
We definitely know were capable of being
successful, said senior Matthew Roloff, a
three-year varsity offensive and defensive
lineman. Well need a lot of hard work and
trust in each other.
Senior wide receiver Isaiah Cozzolino,

entering his second season with the varsity


squad, has seen the Knights evolution first
hand. Since his freshman season of 2013, he
has seen the Knights rise from the Lake to the
Ocean to the Bay.
Its just gotten better every year,
Cozzolino said.
Part of sticking in the Bay is timing. In
many cases, the newest member of the division gets their hats handed to them because
the key members of the team that earned the
promotion have graduated, leaving the cupboard bare. The teams that stick in the Bay
figure out a way to reload instead of rebuild
every year.
The Knights may have to rebuild first. Gone
is 2,000-yard rusher Cameron Taylor and

2,000-yard quarterback Brett Wetteland. In


short, it may take some time for Hillsdale to
find its footing this season, but Parodi is prepared for it.
Of course we want to win every game, but
we want to be competitive too, Parodi said,
which is another key to staying in the Bay.
Whatever we did to win the Ocean is not
enough to win in the Bay. [All the other Bay
Division teams] have been there and done
that. We have to get bigger. We have to
stronger. Its on them (the players) to not just
be good athletes, but students of the game of
football.
(After last year) we got invited (to play in
the Bay). Now, we have to show that invitation was warranted.

your opponent. You always want to be that
guy setting the tempo but keep it under control and play with poise and not get out of
control with your emotions.
Kelly is a proponent of joint practices,
having done them a few times during his
tenure in Philadelphia. The 49ers will hold
another joint practice next week in Denver
before taking on the Broncos in their second exhibition game.
I think its always good, Kelly said.
Its a great way to gauge yourself. Ive done
it in the past a couple times with the
Patriots and once with the Ravens. We
thought it was quality work in the three
years that we did it.

The sessions require some pre-planning


with head coaches coordinating schedules
and offensive and defensive coordinators
trading ideas and scripts to make sure the
practices go as smoothly as possible.
Kelly said he has spent a lot of time talking to Texans coach Bill OBrien about how
the sessions will go. The coordinators for
both teams also have been involved, with
Niners offensive coordinator Curtis
Modkins trading ideas with Texans defensive head Romeo Crennel and defensive
coordinator Jim ONeil doing the same with
Houston offensive coordinator George
Godsey.
ONeil said he and Godsey have talked
about whether there are any different looks

they would like to see Friday in practice that


they arent able to see as much when they go
up against their own teams.

41-year-old Rodriguez has hit .284 with


351 homers and 1, 094 RBIs for the
Yankees, helping them win their 27th
Series title in 2009 but often failing in
other postseasons. He won AL MVP awards
in 2005 and 2007, raising his total to three.
The trade with Texas was a tremendous
move, Cashman said. We added one of the
games greatest players at a discounted price
because there were considerable offsets of
salary, and we got a lot of production from
him for quite some time.
A-Rod cost the Yankees $61 million in
salary from 2004-07 plus an additional $3.5
million in award bonuses. An additional

$22 million he earned over those four seasons was paid by New York and reimbursed
by the Rangers.
Rodriguez opted out of the remainder of
his deal to become a free agent, giving up
$72 million in salary over three seasons.
On Dec. 13, 2007 the same day the
Mitchell Report on drugs in baseball was
released Rodriguez finalized a $275 million, 10-year contract to remain with the
Yankees.
He was suspended by Major League
Baseball for the entire 2014 season for violations of the sports drug agreement and
labor contract, and an arbitrator cut his $25

million salary for that season to


$2,868,852, taking away 162/183rds of
the total.
Rodriguezs Yankees contract pays him in
monthly installments, and the last payment
is due on Dec. 31, 2017. However, he still
will receive money from the Rangers; at the
time of the trade, the $36 million in deferred
money from the $252 million, 10-year deal
he signed with Texas in December 2000 was
converted to an assignment bonus, which
accrues interest at a 2 percent annual rate.
His first payment from the Rangers was
due this June 15 and the last is owed him on
June 15, 2025.

For us defensively, its going to be huge


just from a player evaluation standpoint and
then its a totally different offensive
scheme, ONeil said. Itll be a lot more
two-back formations, stuff we need to see to
get ready for the season. So, itll be a big
test for our defense.
NOTES: QB Colin Kaepernick only took
mental reps at practice Thursday in what the
team described as a planned rest day. ...

Petes Dragon (pleasantly)


maintains a homespun feel
Films span generations
for Bryce Dallas Howard
By Lindsey Bahr
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES Bryce Dallas Howard


remembers as a child watching the 1977
film Petes Dragon on repeat until the
VHS was worn out. She even hung onto her
old Petes Dragon board book to read it
to her two children. So when she heard
there was a script for a new take on the fantastical story of a little boy and his dragon
friend, she actively sought it out.

What started as pure,


sentimental curiosity
led to a starring role in

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK After an exhausting summer buffet of set pieces, superheroes and
whatever s-word you might use for
Suicide Squad, the gentle Petes
Dragon is a welcome palate cleanser.
Where other summer movies are chestthumping, its quiet; where others are
brashly cynical, its sweetly sincere;
where others are lacking in giant cuddly
dragons, Petes Dragon has one.
Few may remember the 1977 Disney
original, in which a young boys best
friend was a bubbly dragon invisible to
others. As part of Disneys continuing
effort to remake its animated classics in
live-action, Petes Dragon has been
confidently reborn as an earnest tale of
green-winged wonder.

David Lowery, a veteran of the independent film world and the director of the
lyrical crime drama Aint Them Bodies
Saints, inherits a far bigger film. But his
Petes Dragon still maintains the homespun feel of an American fable. Spielberglight, you might call it.
The film begins, in the Bambi tradition, in parental tragedy. Petes family is
driving through a remote Pacific
Northwest forest with Pete nestled in the
backseat of the station wagon, reading a
childrens book about a dog named Elliot.
A deer sprints out and, in poetic slowmotion, the gravity of the cars interior is
upended. The car flips off the road and Pete
staggers from the crash.
Flashing forward six years, Pete (Oakes

METAMORPHIC: COLLAGE IN THE


DADA/ SURREALIST TRADITION.
WORKS BY JENNY HONNERT ABELL,
JOHN HUNDT, CATIE OLEARY,
SHERRY PARKER, FRANCESCA PASTINE AND VANESSA WOODS, AT
STANFORD ART SPACES THROUGH
SEPTEMBER. 2016 marks the centenary of
Dada, the anarchic art movement that signaled the end of 19th-century bourgeois naturalism and the beginning of the 20th-century
concept of the artist as miscreant and provocateur. Unlike Cubists like Picasso, Braque
and Schwitters, who used collage to seek
expression in abstract form, Dadaists like
Hannah Hoch, George Grosz, Raoul
Hausmann and Max Ernst employed collage
for the subversive critique of the hypocritical
European society that had slaughtered a generation in the Great War. The Surrealists a
decade later employed collage with equal distaste for social conformity, especially in the
areas of sexual desire and, following Freuds
discovery of the unconscious, the kingdom of
dreams. The prolically creative Max Ernst,
who was involved with both movements,
pioneered the use of cut-up and recombined
old engravings for his inuential collage
novel, La Femme Cent Tetes, The HundredHeaded Woman. The juxtaposition of unlikely elements to create a paradoxical or enigmatic narrative became one of Surrealisms
signature devices, nicely expressed in the
phrase from the visionary Uruguayan of the
1860s, Isidore Ducasse (aka the Comte de
Lautramont), whose Miltonic/satanic novel,
Lay of Maldoro, became something of a breviary for Surrealism: as beautiful as the
chance meeting on a dissection table of an
umbrella and a sewing machine.
SUBVERSIVE SPIRIT CONTINUES IN THE
BAYAREA. The subversive spirit of Dada and
Surrealism continues in the Bay Area, a traditional haven for independent-minded creatives. Metamorphic brings together six
practitioners of this resolutely low-tech but
still powerful medium for creating visual
poetry: Jenny Honnert Abell, John Hundt,
Catie OLeary, Sherry Parker, Francesca
Pastine and Vanessa Woods. Exhibit Curator
DeWitt Cheng said: I hope that the imaginative marriages of art and science (since much
of the imagery is taken from scientic publications) in these small, charged works will

nd resonance in the Stanford tech audience.


Andr Breton, known as the pope of
Surrealism because the movement, comprised of lapsed Catholics, was churchlike,
to the extent of including excommunications
dened Surrealism as pure psychic automatism without aesthetic concerns. Of course
no artists ignore aesthetics; to imply that
intellectual content precludes visual style is
a mistake that only non-artist theorists
make. These six Bay Area collagists explore
the creative imagination without limits or,
rather, they accept the limitations of the
medium and, in a judo-like reversal, transform them into strengths.
ABOUT STANFORD ART SPACES.

For healthy, forgiving cooking,


try foil pack tacos from the oven
By Melissa dArabian
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Social media tells me that in part of the country, kids are


already back-to-school. And so we are teetering between the
lazy days of summer and the impending promise of crisp
cool air, long sleeves and the desire to fire down the grill
and turn on the oven instead.
This is the perfect time to talk about one of my favorite
shoulder-season cooking strategies: the foil pack! Place
thinly sliced veggies with a little marinade or vinaigrette
(even store-bought will work) in a large sheet of heavy-duty
aluminum foil and fold shut into a packet, pinching the
edges, and this handy little guy will be equally delicious
whether cooked on the grill if you have a hot fall day, or in
the oven, if youre already in pumpkin latte weather.
Add some fish or chicken, and youll have a full meal, all
packaged and pretty in individual servings, a presentation
which thrills dinner party guests and kiddos alike. Foil
packet cooking is healthy little fat is needed to accomplish tender, flavorful results.
And, packet-cookery is incredibly forgiving you
(almost) cant overcook a foil packet. A few minutes extra
in the oven wont ruin packet-fish like it would dry out a fillet cooked on the stovetop, grill or even just roasted directly in the oven. As a mom of four, I appreciate that kind of
weeknight-meal flexibility.
Try my foil-pack fish tacos to master some of the basics,
like layering the ingredients in order of how quickly they
cook the bottom will cook more quickly since it will be
touching a direct heat source.

FOIL-PACK FISH TACOS


Start to finish: 30 minutes
Servings: 4
Juice of 1 lime, about 2 tablespoons
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
4 fillets of Alaskan cod, frozen, about 4-5 ounces each
1 yellow onion, sliced thinly (about 2 cups)
2 sweet peppers (red, yellow, or orange), sliced thinly
(about 2 cups total)
Spicy slaw topping:
2 cups chopped or sliced cabbage
1/4 cup plain Greek lowfat yogurt
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 chopped green onion
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
chopped tomatoes, for garnish (optional)
salt and pepper
8 corn tortillas, for serving
Cubed avocado, for garnish
Preheat oven to 400 F. In a large bowl, mix together the
lime juice, olive oil, chili powder, cumin and granulated
garlic. Cut four 12-inch-by-12-inch pieces of heavy duty
foil. Dip the fish into the marinade and set aside.
Toss the onion and peppers in the marinade to coat, and
divide among the foil squares. Place the fish on top of the
onions and peppers. Then toss the tomatoes into the marinade and then place on top of the fish, along with any
remaining marinade. Close the foil up into packets, crimping the edges together.
Place on a baking sheet and bake until fish is cooked
through and vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes.
(Subtract 10 minutes if using fresh fish).
Meanwhile, mix together all the ingredients for the spicy
slaw topping. Serve one foil packet per person, along with
corn tortillas, slaw for topping and avocado if desired.

Fish tacos are an excellent summertime favorite to take with you into colder weather.

they unearth the mystery of this so-called dragon who he
claims is his friend. The film is out Friday.
This movie is so sentimental for me because it reminded
me of a lot of those movies I loved growing up that had real
gravitas to them and real emotion, Howard said. You felt
transported.
As the progeny of two generations of entertainers, including her mother, actress and producer Cheryl Howard, and
father, actor, director and producer Ron Howard, its no surprise that movies have been a backdrop in Howards life for
as long as she can remember. In fact, her first sentence was
uttered at a showing of E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. (It was,
shes told, E.T. fly!).
Those films hold a special spot for Howard as reminders
of her family legacy, her emotional development and how
shes passing that on to her own children. Howard shares a
few of those stories:

Speegle Howard met as teenagers doing a touring childrens
production in Oklahoma of classic fairy tales like Snow
White and Cinderella. They even married on the tour dressed
in their costumes, with her grandmother as Snow White and
her grandfather as a huntsman.
I come from a family who has a very romantic notion of
fairy tales and that seeping into reality, Howard said.
Her grandmother imparted on her a love of classic Disney
animated films through repeated viewings and trips to
Disneyland. A talented seamstress, she would also make her
costumes from her favorites like Snow White,
"Cinderella, and Alice in Wonderland.

those monsters so that they can learn to face them in their
own way.

PASSING THE TORCH

In the films she loved growing up and in this new interpretation of Petes Dragon, Howard has always seen the
value in family films that dont shy away from trauma and
darkness.
The reality of life is that trauma exists and you can move
forward from trauma. You can heal from trauma, Howard
said. Thats the power of Disney. Its not just there to
entertain, its there to enlighten. I know they provided me
with a lot of growth ... Children are going to create monsters. If you try to shelter a child completely from all dangers, theyre going to be ill-equipped for the world. These
movies are kind of giving children the tools to deal with

While many parents cant wait to inundate their children


with the films they loved from their youths, Howard and her
husband, actor Seth Gabel, have a little more patience and
an overriding theory.
We mess this up all the time, but, if we can, we want to
space them out so that the movies come at a time in their
life when theyre asking themselves similar questions,
Howard said. My son is 9 1/2, hes going into fourthgrade, hes really coming into this place where there is independence and mischief and friendships independent from
the family, so we just showed him Aladdin.
For her 4 1/2-year-old daughter, its still all about
Frozen, which has meant a slew of questions about the
definition of words like fractal, "effigy and unconscious.
In delaying it, it doesnt just become something that
they watched when they were younger. Its something that
they really look forward to and understand and hopefully can
see the big picture, she said. My parents are always
encouraging (us) to be a little less precious, which is kind
of ironic. They were very precious!

chasing his own tail than breathing fire.


Hes also the subject of local folklore, mostly as told
by Robert Redfords wood-carving storyteller. But its his
forest ranger daughter Grace (Bryce Dallas Howard) that
first encounters Elliot and ultimately leads to the dragons
discovery.
Grace coaxes Elliot back into society and into the fold
of her family. She has a daughter, Natalie (Oona Laurence)
and lumber mill-running husband Jack (Wes Bentley). Its
the push by a logging company where Jacks brother,
Gavin (Karl Urban) is a gun-totting lumberjack into
the forest that simultaneously begins flushing out Pete
and Elliot from their home in the trees.
The lush forest (New Zealand, again, subbing for North
America) reigns over Petes Dragon, a tale scored with
soft bluegrass and exuding an environment-friendly love

for the beautiful and exotic splendors of nature. When


competing interests come for Elliot, they are really fighting for the soul of the forest.
There are Spielbergian gestures here of magic and family and faith, perhaps better orchestrated than Spielbergs
own recent try at a Disney film, The BFG. But its missing a spark, a sense of danger and maybe a little humor.
The lean simplicity of Petes Dragon is its greatest
attribute and its weakness. It doesnt quite achieve liftoff
until the films final moments. But it does at last catch
flight, finally soaring beyond its humble folksiness.
Petes Dragon, a Walt Disney Co. release, is rated PG
by the Motion Picture Association of America for action,
peril and brief language. Running time: 103 minutes.

IMPACT
Continued from page 1
The report, which is emphasized as a
broad-level review conducted on a tight
deadline, notes existing tenants would
be the ones to benefit and questions
whether the city will be affected.
It is possible that the San Mateo
ordinance would shift some or all of the
rent burden from longer-term residents
of the community to new residents but
have little or no effect on overall rents
and thus little or no effect on rental
property values and the citys
finances, Barton wrote. There is not
sufficient research on this to draw firm
conclusions.
The proposed ordinance would cap
rent increases at the consumer price
index, but no lower than 1 percent and
no higher than 4 percent. It would only
apply to multi-family complexes built
before 1995 and landlords needing to
fund repairs to the property could seek
exemptions. After a tenant moves out
of a rent-controlled apartment, the landlord could set the new market-rate rent.

A mild cost to the city


San Mateos rental housing commission which would be formed if the
ballot measure were passed could
cost between $2 million and $2.5 million to run and require 10 full-time
employees, according to the staff
report.
Rental registration fees paid by landlords, not the city, would cover the
costs of the commission. A comparison
of cities with these types of commis-

ly after opening.
The school eventually moved to
property rented from the San Mateo
County Office of Education on Rollins
Road in Burlingame, in advance of the
Oracle Corporation unveiling plans to
erect a new building for the school last
year.
Montgomery said the construction
of the new school would not have been
possible without the collaborative
effort of the school district and Oracle.
The building represents so many
entities working together to help
kids, he said.
The 64, 000-square-foot learning
space will be built to accommodate
550 students and 30 teachers in a building adjacent to the Belmont Slough,
according to Colleen Cassity, Oracles
director of education, who expressed
enthusiasm for the project to finally
get off the ground.

sions, such as Berkeley, Santa Monica


and East Palo Alto, indicate landlords
could pay between $175 and $242 per
unit each year, according to the report.
Based on state laws, only properties
built before Feb. 1, 1995, would be subject to rent control, which in San Mateo
would include about 11,769 rental units
that account for just 12 percent of the
citys property tax base, according to
the report.
A common concern raised by opponents is how such a law would affect
property values. Barton hypothesized
the impacts to the city wouldnt be felt
until roughly 10 years and even after
being in effect for 20 years, the reduction to the citys budget would be about
$135,000 a year, according to the
report.
The analysis considered the impacts
to the citys property tax revenue, of
which it receives about 15 percent of
the 1 percent a home is taxed. Because
of Proposition 13 which bases property taxes on the assessed value of when
the home was sold and doesnt reflect
market rates until a building is purchased the city may not notice any
changes until a new owner comes on
board, according to the report.

How much will tenants


save, landlords lose?
Barton looked at average 30- and 40year trends in the housing market prior
to 2015 when inflation-adjusted rents
averaged about 1.25 percent a year.
Although rents have clearly increased
at a much higher rate in recent years
some estimates cite rent hikes of 35
percent to 50 percent in the last four
years Barton notes its not realistic
to believe the rents will continue to rise
We are just tremendously excited to
be making this really definitive step
forward in a project that has been two
years in the making, she said.
Oracle Corporation is footing the
entire bill for constructing the school
open to students from both the San
Mateo Union and Sequoia Union high
school districts, as the companys
headquarters in Redwood Shores fall
south of the of the San Mateo Union
High School Districts boundaries.
D.tech students and teachers worked
with architects to design the building
in an effort to create a space best
addressing the specific needs of the
unique curriculum offered at the school,
said Cassity.
The two-story facility will include
both a maker space for students to
develop the vision of their projects
and a connected fabrication lab where
designs can be made into reality, she
said.
Employees from the company will
also be available to tutor students and
offer their expertise on projects, said
Cassity, further establishing the part-

at such a high rate indefinitely.


But based on the long-term historic
increases, Barton estimates rents may
be reduced 3.17 percent below the market rate increases for those in rent-controlled units.
The report also considered the average amount of time a tenant remains at a
property, which is about six years,
while noting recent property sales have
increased with about 40 percent of the
citys rental properties purchased in the
last five years.
Barton also applied the difference in
rent-controlled units and how long
theyre kept lower than market in
other words how long a tenant stays
to the average amount of market-rate
increase. He estimates tenants would be
protected against 3.17 percent of the
market-rate increase each year, saving
about $7.6 million a year in other
words, money landlords would not collect.
In exchange, the city could expect to
see a slight increase in sales tax, as tenants would have more disposable
income, according to the report.
The entire report emphasizes there is
limited information available to determine how rent control might impact a
city like San Mateo as few California
communities have enacted such provisions since the states Costa-Hawkins
Act limited rent control to sites built
before 1995.
The City Council will consider the
report Monday night and originally
considered including parts within a ballot opposition argument that it is no
longer likely to submit.

councils Aug. 15 agenda.
nership between the corporate giant
and the public school.
Montgomery said the mentorship
offered by Oracle employees is one of
his favorite components of the
schools new home in Redwood
Shores.
Our students having access to that
kind of expertise is something Im
particularly excited about, he said.
Cassity said she believed d.techs
future presence on the campus of a
globally recognized company is proof
of the collaborative spirit common in
the local technology marketplace.
This kind of partnership is an
example of the best of Silicon Valley,
she said.
Looking toward the groundbreaking
and eventually the building construction, set to begin Sept. 1,
Montgomery said he is thrilled for the
opportunity to see his dreams for the
project, and the school, become a reality.
It really is such a unique, historic
thing, he said. Its such an amazing
thing to be a part of.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
John J. Lagomarsino
Case Number: 16PRO00193
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of John J. Lagomarsino: A
Petition for Probate has been filed by Pamela Delnevo in the Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo. The
Petition for Probate requests that Pamela
Delnevo be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the
decedent. The petition requests the decedents will and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for examiniation in the
file kept by the court. The petition requests authority to administer the estate
under the Independent Administration of
Estates Act. (This authority will allow the
personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval.
Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal 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 objection 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: 9/14/2016 at 9:00
a.m., Department 28, Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo, 400
County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063.
If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor 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 representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the

Continued from page 1
Mayor David Lim agreed Wednesday
they would not recommend the council submit a ballot argument in opposition. The
city has historically opted not to weigh in
via ballot documents that will be presented
to voters, the duo said during the special
meeting.
Our recommendation is not to change
the precedent about having a recommendation come from us as a body of a council,
but rather those interested in putting an

said, noting the Aug. 19 deadline for arguments to be submitted.
Rebuttal arguments are due Aug. 29.
In contrast, Burlingame officials facing
a similar citizen-initiated ballot measure to
institute rent control plan to author a formal opposition, according to the citys
Mayor Ann Keighran.
Although the San Mateo City Council
will likely take a neutral stance, the heated
debate is expected to draw opposition from
groups such as the San Mateo County
Association of Realtors, which is raising
funds for its campaign efforts.
But San Mateo voters will be given alternate information directly from the city
ahead of the election, including a preliminary study on the financial impact to the
city and Goethals suggestion the city

the schools reopening.
Local residents had claimed the area was
unfit to accommodate students, as the narrow
roads and tight traffic patterns would cause
havoc among parents looking to drop off
their kids.
But residents last year dropped the lawsuit
in the wake of school officials agreeing to
install a variety of traffic calming alterations along Summit Drive, in an attempt to
ensure cars flow as smoothly and efficiently
as possible through the area.
Despite the rough road school officials
have traveled toward the first day of school
at the campus, MacIsaac said residents living near Hoover are looking forward to once
again having a neighborhood campus open.
There are a lot of fond memories for that
neighborhood and the community to have a
school near their homes, she said.
The district has paid roughly $13 million

reconsider a relocation assistance program.


Although the details have yet to be presented, Goethals prior proposal sought to
discourage huge rent hikes that often led to
tenants being displaced by requiring landlords who raise prices more than 10 percent to provide tenants with a certain number of months worth of the area median
rent.
A preliminary discussion on relocation
assistance, presentation of a report on the
financial impact to the city of the proposed ballot initiative, and the ballot arguments will be considered by the full council Monday night.

Tenants discuss concerns


Immediately after Wednesdays meeting,
Goethals met with nearly two dozen advocates for the ballot measure titled the San
Mateo Community Preservation and Fair
Rent Charter Amendment.
Residents and members of Faith in
Action Bay Area shared their individual
stories about what prompted them to seek
tenant protections that include capping
rents at the consumer price index and preventing evictions without just cause.
A teacher who faced an $1,100 per month
rent increase, a mother of two living in a
home with 10 people, a young social
worker who cant afford to not live with her
family and parents of recent college graduates who are considering moving outside
the Bay Area, spoke about the regions
housing crisis.
Having gathered the requisite more than
to reopen the school, which officials claim
is necessary to address sustained enrollment
growth over recent years. Hoover was founded in 1931, closed in 1979 and later sold,
then repurchased by the district for $4.8 million in 2010. The remainder of the cost was
for construction to bring it up to current
standards.
MacIsaac noted many of the other district
campuses have also undergone construction
this summer, adding to the enthusiasm of
officials offering new learning facilities to
local students.
To open Hoover is exciting but it is also
exciting to see work on our other schools,
she said.
In an effort to finance future school construction projects, the district Board of
Trustees approved floating to Burlingame
voters in the fall election a $56 million
bond officials designed to further address
campus overcrowding.
Beyond the substantial amount of work
already done to the Hoover campus, there are
still a variety of projects needed to improve
traffic and pedestrian flow through the area.

7, 000 signatures, organizers questioned


whether Goethals relocation assistance
proposal which he wants to consider
ahead of the election would water down
their efforts.
My concern is that if your ordinance for
relocation assistance is not complementary to our ballot measure, that people are
going to look at it like an either-or, said
Noelia Corzo, a 26-year-old woman who
has lived in San Mateo since she was 2.
Our ballot measure is so important
because it just makes more sense in terms
of stabilizing our communities and if people see there are now these relocation benefits that they dont get to vote on I feel
like its going to turn people away from
being involved with the decision making
for the city.
Goethals said his intent with the relocation assistance program was to find a path
toward helping the highest number of
renters, while also presenting something
more palatable to landlords who dont
issue steep rent increases or evict tenants
without cause.
He noted the limitations of the ballot
measure, under which rent control would
not apply to apartments built after Feb.
1, 1995, to any new construction, and
would likely only benefit existing tenants while possibly causing the rates to
projected $3.5 million bill will fall likely to
the city, as a majority of the identified work
needs to take place beyond the boundaries of
school district property.
Building new sidewalks, painting crosswalks, making the site compliant under the
Americans with Disabilities Act and other
improvements such as installing a new traffic island and stop signs are among the projects identified to improve access at the new
school.
City and school officials have convened
to discuss opportunities for cost sharing to
finance the work, but work on most of the
larger projects is not expected to begin until
school starts and traffic flow patterns can be
examined more closely.
In the meantime, the city will be implementing pilot traffic restrictions including:
no street parking on Summit Drive from

increase for newcomers.


Goethals acknowledged he did vote
against rent control when it came to the
council earlier in the year, and remains
unsure of what the next steps should be if
the tenants advocates oppose relocation
assistance.
As his earlier attempt narrowly failed
under a tense political climate in which the
council was confronted by tenants pleading for help and landlords gravely concerned their rights would be infringed upon
while bearing financial burdens, Goethals
questioned whether having any measures to
assist tenants would be palatable if the ballot measure fails during the election.
But with a crisis at hand, he emphasized
the need to keep up a variety of efforts such
as funding below-market housing projects
and considering linkage fees requiring
developers to contribute money toward
affordable housing initiatives. Another
possibility may be to broaden the citys
inclusionary zoning through which housing developers must incorporate a percentage of affordable units, Goethals said.
Weve done a number of things this
year, its not enough. I cant express to
you how different this [housing crisis] is
than everywhere else in the country right
now, Goethals said. Its scary to think
that the only thing that will be left, is the
affordable housing [the city] has preserved, and the market-rate housing that no
one can afford.

MacIsaac credited the hard work of city
officials in preparing the campus for opening day.
In all though, with the culmination of the
work soon on the horizon, MacIsaac said
officials and the community are ready for the
school to open its doors to students.
Everyone is very excited to open the
school, she said.
