Foster City tries to tackle affordable housing

Council needs more time to consider options for developer impact fees, spending
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Foster City officials said they need more

time before outlining a plan on how to
address the lack of affordable housing and
related impacts as they consider new policies requiring developers to contribute.
The City Council met Monday to discuss
the results of its portion of a countywide

nexus study looking at how residential,

commercial and office space developers can
help offset their impacts by either paying
fees or building affordable housing units.
The city is the first among the San Mateo
County participants of the 21 Element
Nexus Study to consider implementing
new policies suggested by consultants.
Although city staff and consultants had a
range of recommendations regarding impact

fees, inclusionary zoning requiring units to

be built on site at new residential developments and different spending programs; the
council needed more time to consider its
options.
Without a firm plan as to how to spend the
money collected from impact fees, councilmembers opted to send their individual
comments to staff before reconsidering the
issue at a later date.

The loss of redevelopment agencies in

2012 has left many cities scrambling for
solutions to the regions growing jobshousing imbalance that contributes to traffic congestion and environmental impacts.
Councilman Charlie Bronitsky said hes
concerned the city is putting the cart before
the horse by not identifying how the money

The San Mateo County Law Library in Redwood City is open to the public but a drop in funding jeopardizes its fate.

Law librarys fate in doubt

Drop in funding limits services to local attorneys, the general public
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The San Mateo County Law Library

needs immediate support to continue
and maintain its resources and services
to local attorneys and the general public as its revenue from court filings has
dropped dramatically since 2011,
Director Andrew Gurthet said.
Per state law, California County Law
Libraries are funded by a portion of a
litigants fee on their first filing in
court, whether a complaint or answer,
which amounts to $38.50 per filing. A
Small Claims Court filing, however,
only generates $3 for the libraries.

The law librarys income in 2010-11

was $841, 000 but dropped to
$549,544 for the 2014-15 fiscal year.
It is expected to be $480, 000 for
2015-16, a 43 percent drop since
2010-11.
Gurthet has been forced to suspend
updating the librarys book collection, lay off four part-time employees,
cut evening and weekend hours and
suspend some of its electronic databases to reduce the budget.
Without this service, many will
have no access to justice, Gurthet
said.
Expenses for 2015-16 are expected
to be $596,200, a 33 percent reduction

over its high of $881,296 in fiscal

year 2013-14.
For now, the library is surviving off
its reserves but that is not sustainable
for too many more years, Gurthet said.
Book sales and fundraisers arent
enough to make up the difference.
Weve been living off reserves which
is fast coming to an end, he said.
In the meantime, the California
Council of County Law Libraries have
hired a lobbyist to find ways to get the
state Legislature to increase funding
for the libraries, most of which are suffering, Gurthet said.
It is unlikely, however, that the state

Care home owner pays back wages, damages

Seven facilities in San Mateo, Burlingame and South San Francisco
By Sara Gaiser
BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE

The owner of seven residential care facilities in San Mateo, Burlingame and South
San Francisco has paid more than $200,000
in back wages and damages after an investigation found she had failed to pay employees minimum wages or overtime, U. S.
Department of Labor officials said Tuesday.
Adora Ancheta has entered into an administrative settlement and paid $101,791 in
back wages and an additional $101,791 in
damages to 53 employees for a two-year
period between 2012 and 2014, according
to the labor department.
Ancheta owns facilities including Tricias
Care Home, Kellys Home, Cortez Home and
Shoreview Home in San Mateo; Albright
Home and Olympic Home in South San
Francisco; and Floras Home in Burlingame.
Investigators found that the employees,
who care for elderly, ill and disabled clients,
were paid flat monthly salaries that often

Comment on
or share this story at
www.smdailyjournal.com
amounted to less than the federal minimum
wage of $7.25 an hour. Some worked more
than 40 hours in a week without overtime
pay.
Ancheta also failed to keep accurate
records of work hours and pay and incorrectly classified some employees as independent contractors rather than employees,
labor department officials said.
The labor department has completed a
series of such investigations in the Bay
Area since 2011, resulting in orders to pay
more than $6.8 million in back wages to
more than 1,350 residential care workers.
These hardworking employees, who care
for our loved ones, must be paid what they
are due, said Susana Blanco, district director for the Department of Labors Wage and
Hour Division in San Francisco. The divi-

sion continues to fight this disturbing wage

violation trend in residential care facilities,
which harms workers and their families.
The workers included in the settlement
with Ancheta were all Filipino. Labor
department officials said it is common for
recent immigrants to be severely underpaid
in the residential care industry.
Recent immigrants are often extremely
vulnerable, both because of a language issue
and also because they dont know the local
law and dont know who they can go to for
help, said Michael Eastwood, assistant district director for the San Francisco office.
Eastwood said the industry historically
has operated by paying workers flat salaries
and keeping minimal records, but a recent
crackdown by federal officials has led to
significant change.
Were seeing a huge shift in the industry, Eastwood said. The folks who are still
continuing to pay folks wrong probably
know theres a problem.
Efforts to reach Ancheta for comment
Tuesday were unsuccessful.

California pension initiative awaits key legal description

By Judy Lin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO California Attorney

General Kamala Harris faced a Tuesday
deadline to issue key wording on a pension
initiative that could dramatically change
the way the state and local governments
provide pension benefits to public workers.
Harris, a Democrat, must issue the title
and summary on a ballot question before
backers can begin collecting the 585,407
voter signatures needed to qualify for the
November 2016 ballot.
The wording is considered crucial to

whether voters are likely to support the push to

require public votes on
defined benefits for new
employees and increased
benefits for existing
workers.
The initiatives proponents accused Harris
Kamala Harris in 2014 of using false
and misleading phrases
to create prejudice against another pension-reform proposal. Then-San Jose
Mayor Chuck Reed abandoned that attempt
to enable governments in California to cut
future pension benefits for current workers

after losing a court fight over the attorney

generals legal description.
Now Reed is partnering with former San
Diego Councilman Carl DeMaio on a new
tactic. Rather than allow cities, counties
and other California governments to
reduce future benefits through collective
bargaining or a local vote, the so-called
Voter Empowerment Act of 2016 requires
voters to approve any new pension benefits or upgrades to current ones.
The proposal would require voters to
approve defined benefits for new employees hired starting Jan. 1, 2019, as well as
pension enhancements for existing workers.

CALIFORNIA BLAZE GROWS

Brown signs bill letting

A Northern California blaze grew Tuesday, prompting more evacuations, many of them residents who had recently returned
home after a nearby massive blaze first threatened their homes.The wildfire had charred almost 22 square miles by Monday
evening. It was 5 percent contained, the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection said. The fire, which erupted
Sunday several miles from the community of Lower Lake, almost more than doubled in size overnight despite cooler
temperatures and higher humidity. For the second time in as many weeks, residents had to evacuate their homes because
of the uncontained fire lighting up rocky hills about 100 miles north of San Francisco. More than 1,100 firefighters are
battling the blaze that is threatening 50 structures. No homes have been destroyed, and no injuries have been reported.
Meanwhile, firefighters have nearly surrounded the larger nearby blaze that started about two weeks ago and has burned
109 square miles. That fire destroyed 43 homes.

No-fly list case could shed light on U.S. terror predictions

By Eileen Sullivan
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON A court challenge

over the difficult process for airline
passengers to remove their names
from the U.S. governments list of suspected terrorists banned from flying is
taking an unexpected twist, now focusing on the mysterious ways federal
agents add passenger names to the nofly list in the first place.

The latest filing in a five-year federal case challenges the governments

undisclosed method of predicting who
might commit a terrorist act in the
future.
The case could provide a glimpse
into the governments secret practices
based on details about an airline passengers friendships, travels, financial
transactions and more.
Plaintiffs in the case, represented by
the American Civil Liberties Union,

want the government to provide all the

reasons, including evidence, why they
are on the no-fly list, a roster of tens
of thousands of people banned from
flying to, from, within or over the
U.S. They want to challenge those reasons in a court hearing.
As a result of the lawsuit filed in
Portland, Oregon, the Obama administration came up with a new policy earlier this year to tell some Americans
whether and why they were on the list.

decision to expel a second-grader whose
mother was a domestic worker at a home

The Orinda Union School District
made news after it hired a private investigator to look into a second-graders
residency. She was living in the district
where her mother worked five days a
Jerry Brown week.
The Democratic governor signed
without comment SB 200 by Democratic Sen. Ricardo
Lara, which permits the children of live-in workers such
as nannies and maids to attend school in the districts
where their parents work at least three days per week.
Now, some parents wont be put in the unfair position
of having to choose between spending quality time with
their kids during the work week or spending that time
away at work, Lara said in a statement.
The Orinda district later changed course and determined
the 7-year-old could continue to attend school there.
Brown also signed a companion bill, AB1101 by
Assemblywoman Susan Bonilla, D-Concord. The new law
requires that schools have a set policy for investigating
students residency before hiring a private investigator to
look into residency. It also prohibits students from being
photographed or recorded by investigators and mandates
an appeals process.
Both bills received unanimous support in the Senate
and the Assembly.

California governor signs

two bills tied to police misconduct
SACRAMENTO Gov. Jerry Brown has signed two
bills relating to police misconduct in California as
debates about the use of excessive force by officers continue across the country.
The bills make clear that its legal to record or photograph police in public areas and prohibit using secret
grand juries to try officers in cases of lethal force.
The Democratic governor announced Tuesday that he
signed SB411 by Democratic Sen. Ricardo Lara of Bell
Gardens, clarifying that recording police is not sufficient
cause to charge people with obstruction of justice.
SB277 by Democratic Sen. Holly Mitchell of Los
Angeles prohibits using grand juries to probe police
shootings, which she says are too secretive. She cites the
decision by a Ferguson, Missouri grand jury not to indict
the officer who killed Michael Brown.

U.S. official: Clinton lawyer

turned over her emails to FBI
By Ken Dilanian
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The FBI has taken

possession of thumb drives containing
Hillary Clintons emails, some of
which have been deemed to contain
highly sensitive classified information, according to a U.S. official briefed
on the matter.
The official was not authorized to be
quoted publicly and spoke on condition
of anonymity.
Clintons lawyer, David Kendall,
turned over the emails after the FBI
determined that he could not remain in
possession of the classified information, the official said. The State
Department previously had said it was
comfortable with Kendall keeping the
emails at his Washington law office.

The news came as

Sen.
Charles
Grassley said two of
the emails, which
traversed Clintons

server, were deemed

Grassley said the inspector general of
the intelligence community had reported the new details about the higher classification to Congress on Tuesday.
Those two emails were among four
that had previously been determined by
the inspector general of the intelligence community to have been classi-

fied at the time they were sent. The State

Department disputes that the emails
were classified at the time.
The U.S. official said the FBI recovered at least two thumb drives containing the emails from Kendall. The drives
contain around 30,000 emails that
Clinton deemed work-related and turned
over to the State Department. She
destroyed thousands of others that she
said were not work-related.
The inspector general for the
Intelligence Committee told Congress
that potentially hundreds of classified
emails are among the cache that
Clinton provided.
Former Secretary of State Clinton, a
Democrat running for president, has
faced criticism over her use of a private
email address and home server for official business.

Colorado contested Superfund status for mine

By Ivan Moreno
and Ellen Knickmeyer
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DENVER The U.S. Environmental

Protection Agency took full responsibility Tuesday for the mine waste spoiling rivers downstream from Silverton,
Colorado, but people who live near the
idled and leaking Gold King mine say
local authorities and mining companies
spent decades spurning federal cleanup
help.

They feared the stigma of a Superfund

label, which delivers federal money upfront for extensive cleanups. They worried that corporations would kill a
hoped-for revival in the areas mining
industry rather than get stuck with
cleanup costs. And some havent trusted
the federal government, townspeople
say.
The EPA pushed anyway, for nearly 25
years, to apply its Superfund program
to the Gold King mine, which has been
leaching a smaller stream of arsenic,

lead and other wildlife-killing heavy

metals into Cement Creek. That water
runs into the Animas and San Juan
rivers before reaching Lake Powell and
the lower Colorado River, a basin serving five states, Mexico and several sovereign Native American nations.
As millions of gallons of spilled
sludge spread hundreds of miles downstream Tuesday, officials from the century-old mining towns of southwest
Colorado defended their opposition to
federal help.

Kerry, top Democratic

senator spar on Iran deal, sanctions
WASHINGTON Secretary of State John Kerry sparred
Tuesday with the lone Democratic senator to publicly
oppose last months historic Iran nuclear deal, saying there
was no way the U.S. could prevent American allies from
doing business with Tehran if Congress were to reject the
agreement.
Speaking across town in New York, Sen. Chuck Schumer
disagreed and suggested Washington still could force the
world into isolating the Iranians until they make deeper
nuclear concessions.
The dispute goes to the heart of the questions that
American lawmakers are considering as they prepare to vote
on the nuclear accord.
If they were to shelve the deal and override an expected
presidential veto they could severely complicate the
Obama administrations ability to honor its commitments
to roll back economic sanctions on Iran. In exchange, Iran
has agreed to a decade of tough restrictions on Irans nuclear
program and a far more intrusive inspections regime.

St. Louis chief regained control of Ferguson protests

By Jim Salter and Alan Scher Zagier
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

FERGUSON, Mo. As another protest

on Fergusons beleaguered West Florissant
Avenue began to turn rowdy, Jon Belmar was
among the first to confront protesters.
Wearing neither a helmet nor a shield, the
St. Louis County police chief strode directly
toward demonstrators, telling them to get
out of the street and urging calm.
Theyre not going to take the street
tonight, Belmar told an Associated Press
reporter standing nearby. Thats not going
to happen.
One night earlier, things turned dangerously violent when shots rang out and an
18-year-old black suspect was shot by
police after he allegedly fired a handgun into
an unmarked police van. Police used smoke
to disperse the crowd. Three officers were
injured.
The scene was markedly different on
Monday night and early Tuesday, after the
St. Louis County executive declared a state
of emergency, a move that gave Belmar
instead of interim Ferguson Police Chief
Andre Anderson control of security.
This time, the police presence was far
greater. Officers lined several blocks of
West Florissant, rather than staying confined to a smaller area. And each time protesters left the sidewalk for the street, police
converged.
Unlike Sunday, there was no gunfire, no
injuries and no reports of looting or property damage.
More than 20 people were arrested. Police
never deployed smoke or tear gas, though
they were at times pelted with water bottles
and rocks.
Reaction from protesters was mixed.
I think they took command out of the
hands of the new chief of Ferguson pretty
fast, Charles Mayo, leader of a moderate
protest group that has sought to improve
relations between protesters and police,

said Tuesday. They put the response in

Belmars hands. Me personally, I think
Belmar did a great job.
Ferguson resident and military veteran
Hershel Myers Jr. criticized the police
response as aggressive and unnecessary. He
said Ferguson police should have been in
charge.
This is treatment weve been putting up
with forever, Myers said. Its always St.
Louis County pushing us around and making
up rules.
Ferguson Mayor James Knowles III disputed the notion that the county taking over
was a negative reflection on Anderson and
Ferguson police. It simply marked a change
in tactic, he said.
County Executive Steve Stenger said the
state of emergency could be lifted as soon as
Wednesday, depending upon how Tuesday
night unfolded.
Events marking the anniversary of
Michael Browns death were peaceful until
Sunday night, when multiple shots were
fired and Tyrone Harris Jr. was shot. He is

returned fire. Harris was struck multiple
times and is hospitalized in critical condition.
Obviously, theres a point at which
youve got to put an end to it, Knowles
said. Property and life needed to be preserved. Their (police) tactics were going to
have to change.
St. Louis County police on Tuesday
released a 13-second clip of security camera
footage they say shows Harris minutes
before he fired at plainclothes officers. The
clip shows a person police identify as Harris
grabbing a handgun from his waistband and
running toward a parking lot, police say in
response to other shots being fired during
the protests.
Harris father disputed the police account
Monday but declined to discuss his sons
shooting Tuesday.

Japan committed to nuclear

power despite Fukushima fiasco
TOKYO With the pull of a lever, control
rods were lifted Tuesday from the reactor core
at a plant in southern Japan, ending a ban on
nuclear power following meltdowns at
Fukushima in the northeast that forced tens
of thousands of people to leave their homes,
most of them for good.
Crowded, energy-scarce Japan remains
committed to nuclear power despite the
March 2011 accident at the Fukushima DaiIchi plant and its messy aftermath, for economic, environmental and political reasons.
Polls show that most Japanese dont want
nuclear power, but public opinion has been
trumped by leaders who say keeping the
countrys 43 workable reactors offline forever would be too damaging economically.

School bonds must comply with state law

By Maxine Terner

s the November election

approaches, so do the number of school bond and
municipal tax measures that will
appear on the ballot. Do you believe
that voters have the right to know
what theyre voting for? Especially
for measures that ask for our hardearned money? Of course you do. Its
one of the foundations of our democracy to be able to trust the ballot.
Would you be surprised to find out
that no one appears responsible for
ensuring that the language on bond
measures is accurate and truthfully lets
voters know what in fact the money
will be used for? Sadly, not even our
elected officials who lend their good
names for endorsements and then
appear on the ubiquitous election
mailers asking us to trust their support.
The state Constitution requires that
school bonds provide the listing of
specific school facilities projects to
be funded from bond revenue. This
requirement was added after state lawmakers gave school districts a huge
gift by changing the 66.7 percent
majority vote required to pass bond
measures to 55 percent. The word
specific plainly means exact, precise, detailed, not vague, ambiguous or undefined.
Before voters (or politicians) decide
to support additional bonds, perhaps
it is worthwhile to examine how voters can be misled, by using the example of the San Mateo County
Community College District. Instead
of the legally required specific project
list, the college districts 2014 ballot
actually stated whenever specific
items are included in the following
list, they are presented to provide
examples and are not intended to limit
the generality of the broader description of authorized projects. Was the
bond measure even legal when it did

not comply with

the state
Constitution? Did
voters intend to
give the college
district a blank
check?
Nowhere on last
years ballot or in
election mailers
were voters informed about what
major projects the college district
really intended to build, although the
board had already identified which
projects to finance from the bond. No
election material mentioned that the
bulk of the $388 million bond would
fund a new social science/creative arts
theater building 150 percent larger
than the existing building at Skyline;
a new kinesiology and wellness building (gym and another private health
club) 200 percent larger than the
existing building plus two new 25meter pools at Caada; and a new
kinesiology and wellness building
(gym) 40 percent larger than the
existing building at CSM, which
already has a controversial private
health club funded by previous bond
money.
Are these projects really in sync
with their educational priorities? Are
these new, larger buildings necessary
given that enrollment at the three
campuses has stabilized for the foreseeable future, according to their own
environmental document. Or are they
wasteful and extravagant? In every
case, according to their own project
budgets, the cost for new construction
far exceeds the costs for modernization and renovation. Its the reason
people are saying the community colleges feel more like country clubs
rather than serving as educational
stepping stones to higher education
and skilled jobs.
No wonder voters feel deceived and
it adds to the distrust of government
felt throughout the country. It also

ures. How frustrating to see our local
elementary and high school districts
scramble to find a few hundred million
dollars when voters already have
given the college district over $1.5
billion under false pretenses.
Sadly, school bond deception is not
only a local issue. As columnist
Daniel Borenstein wrote in the Contra
Costa Times in 2014, we teach our
children to be forthcoming about the
truth. Sadly, school and county officials wont do the same. Its deception by omission. Its morally, ethically and possibly legally wrong. If
these officials wont do the right
thing, state lawmakers must unambiguously insist on it. Most school
bond measures merit public support.
But voters deserve full information
before deciding whether to raise local
taxes by hundreds of millions of dollars.
Its past time for our state lawmakers to ensure bond measures are truthful by mandating that the language
that appears on the actual ballot state
what big ticket projects the majority
of bond money will finance. Further,
the supporting ballot information
must include the specific list of projects to be funded as required by the
state Constitution.
Pay attention voters and insist that
our elected officials specifically tell
us what our hard earned tax dollars
will be spent on before we vote.
Otherwise, we only have ourselves to
blame.

My decision
By Steve Okamoto

have been honored to serve as

your councilmember for the past
four years. I was asked in 2011
to run for the council because Foster
City was facing a multi-million dollar
deficit. It was thought that with my
finance and business background that
I could possibly help reduce the
deficit. After four years, I am happy to
say that the 2015-16 budget is in balance and if projections hold true the
budget could be in balance for the
next five years. However, I feel that
my most revered work is Foster
Square, a senior/mixed use community
that will allow Foster City seniors to
stay in the city they love.
My first term is nearing an end so I
am asked frequently, Are you going
to run for re-election? My customary
answer is I still havent decided. I
have given four years to the city Ive
called home for the past 37 years and
watched it grow from a dusty, sleepy
town to a thriving and bustling city.
Many longtime residents have not
been happy with the growth, but after
four years working behind the scenes
I know that it is vital to continue to
grow in order to pay the bills so that
Foster City could be the best place to
work, live and play.

Many questions
need to be
answered before
deciding whether
to do this for
another four years.
Have I accomplished what I set
out to do? Is there
more that I need to
do? What else can I do if I am not a
city councilmember? How is my
health? How is this job affecting my
family?
The decision to run has been a very
difficult question for me. On one hand
I have many, many people hoping
that I would run again. They feel I
have been doing a wonderful job and I
have been a steadying influence on
the council. On the other hand, there
are folks out there who would like to
take on the duties of the council and I
certainly would want them to have
that opportunity.
However, my final decision is really
simple. It comes down to the fact that
an unhealthy environment has been
created on the council which has
caused, in my opinion, many good
staff members to leave or find
employment elsewhere. Our civic
leaders should be setting good examples of responsible behavior. It is my
opinion that some have not. The

Guest
perspective
actions of those members, again in
my opinion, are an embarrassment to
the city. I have lived with this shameful behavior for the past four years.
Therefore, I would like to announce
I will not be seeking re-election for
the 2015 election. I make this decision with a great deal of deliberation
with not only my family but with
people who I admire and trust. I will
certainly miss the staff that, in my
opinion, makes Foster City the best
city in the country. They really care
about their jobs, they are true professionals and I will always admire them.
However, I will not miss the dysfunction on the council.
Thank you for giving me the honor
of four years on the council. Good
luck to the three new members. I will
continue to work for Foster City in a
private capacity and I will stay busy
as I am on four nonprofit boards and a
pro bono consultant to three others.

Utterly devastated

ach time mental illness is cited as a possible

factor in high-prole mass killings, theres a
collective sigh among mental health professionals. Even as they see an opportunity for serious discussions of problems and remedies, they also worry about
setbacks to their efforts to destigmatize mental illness.
Mental health experts respond carefully to mass
killings Daily Journal, July 28, 2015.
If you have been reading my columns during the past six
years or so, you know that the health and welfare of children are foremost in my mind. When the story of the unbelievable, heartbreaking slaughter of Madyson Middleton
in Santa Cruz came out on July 27, we were all devastated
by the insanity of it and the impossibility of imagining
how terribly those who knew her and loved her are suffering.
This is another inconceivable news story that
involves obviously severely demented young men
who kill whether school
children and teachers at
Sandy Hook, Connecticut,
movie viewers in Aurora,
Colorado, church members
in Charleston, South
Carolina, drive-by shootings, or any of the other
unconscionable murders
that regularly haunt us.
When I think of my two
9-year-old granddaughters, I wonder how long we are
going to keep hearing these stories and convincing ourselves that they cant be prevented. Of course, strict gun
control would help a lot, but that wouldnt have helped
Maddy. What I want to ask today is: Where is our psychiatric establishment in all of this? I would like them to
please answer the following questions.
Have people who are considered experts in this eld
been studying why so many teens and young men turn out
to be psychopathic killers? If so, why havent we heard
about it? Have they been trying to nd out if something
had gone wrong in utero? Or what the mother has (or hasnt) ingested during her life and pregnancy (drugs-legal or
illegal, alcohol, nutrition, etc.)? Could child neglect,
parental violence, rigid and punitive home atmosphere, or
head injury have something to do with it? Were there
signs from the young mans past that he was unstable or
had serious adjustment problems? Is the penchant for violence and mental instability somehow hereditary? Is it
schizophrenia and if so, why do so many young men
fall victim to it?
At any rate, there is something terribly wrong with a
human being who will willingly go out and kill other
human beings without any conscience. I repeat: Has the
American Psychological Association looked into the similarities of such youth in their backgrounds, their heredity, the way they were raised (or not), and their behavior?
Is it more important to protect the mentally ill or the
mentally sane? As Lisa Silas who lives in the complex
where Maddys murder occurred commented: We dont
know what happened. This may have been there but we
didnt see it. I cant speculate for A.J. (the accused) or
his mental history, but to do something like that, he must
have had some history we didnt know about. Bay
Area News Group, July 30, 2015.
Why cant the APA or other related researchers come up
with a list of symptoms that we should all be aware of?
Shouldnt those with a history of mental problems be
taken seriously and some method of separating them from
society (before they commit heinous crimes) be devised?
Does the APA go too far in their attempts to protect those
who are mentally disturbed and prone to violence? Could
they possibly quit hiding behind rhetoric and face reality
so that such illness is diagnosed and treated more often
before such tragedies occur? Could some tests be devised
that would provide a clue as to which of the mentally ill
may be more likely to become murderers?
Has it gotten to the point that we in this country are
getting used to these things happening? Do we feel completely at a loss as to how we might prevent such outrageous slaughter? To protect some mentally ill people from
being unfairly stigmatized, are we supposed to put up with
an unprecedented number of such violent deaths? Are
teachers, coaches and other school employees taught
about the problem and how to spot those youngsters who
may show signs of future violence?
According to the July 29 editorial in the San Jose
Mercury News, Crime is down. But, as reported on the
PBS Newshour Aug. 4, the latest statistics indicate a startling increase in violent crime since the beginning of
2015, averaging 19 percent in 31 of our big cities. Yet the
Mercury was right about one thing. One look at Maddy
Middletons sweet smile reminds us what cold comfort statistics are. It breaks our hearts.

to weaken the yuan was a result of
reforms intended to make its exchange
rate more market-oriented. However,
most investors interpreted the action
as an attempt by authorities to stimulate a slowing economy. A cheaper
yuan will benefit Chinas exports by
making them less expensive overseas.
The move triggered a wave of selling. Oil, copper and other commodity
prices fell as traders anticipated weaker
demand from China. That led to big
drops energy and materials stocks.
Companies that derive a large part of
their sales from China, like Apple and
Yum Brands, also fell sharply.
China is the second-largest economy in the world, and they are certainly
going through a stage right now where
growth is not as robust as it has been,
said Michael Scanlon, a managing
director at John Hancock Asset
Management. China is one of the
biggest risks to the equity market as a
whole.

The Standard & Poors 500 index fell

20.11 points, or 1 percent, to
2,084.07. The Dow Jones industrial
average lost 212.33 points, or 1.2 percent, to 17,402.84. The Nasdaq composite index fell 65.01 points, or 1.3
percent, to 5,036.79
The Chinese government allowed the
yuan to fall 1.9 percent, the biggest
one-day drop in a decade. In recent
months, the yuan has strengthened
along with the U.S. dollar, hurting
Chinese exporters. Chinas exports
fell by an unexpectedly large 8.3 percent in July. The yuan was valued at
6.32 per dollar on Tuesday, compared
with 6.21 per dollar a day earlier.
Yum Brands, the owner of the KFC
and Taco Bell chains, was among the
biggest decliners in the S&P 500. The
fast-food company gets more than half
of its sales from China. The company
said last month that it was expecting a
strong second-half of the year in
China. Yum fell $4.28, or 4.9 percent,
to $83.54.
Apple, another company that makes
a lot of money in China, dropped
$6.23, or 5.2 percent, to $113.49 and
Wynn Resorts, which generates more
than half of its revenue from the
Chinese gambling hub of Macau,
slipped $2.39, or 4.3 percent, to
$54.36.
The price of oil had another big drop,
closing at its lowest level in six years.

Oil prices also fell after OPEC said its

production increased to a 3-year high,
adding further evidence of a global supply glut. U.S. crude fell $1.88 to settle
at $43.08 a barrel in New York, its lowest close since March of 2009. Brent
crude, a benchmark for international
oils used by many U.S. refineries, fell
$1.23 to close at $49.18 in London.
The losses for stocks on Tuesday
wiped out a large part of the gains from
a day earlier, when the market logged
its largest advance in three months as
the price of oil logged a big gain and
some corporate deal news boosted
investor sentiment.
Investors shouldnt be too worried
by the big moves in market prices, said
David Kelly, chief Global Strategist at
JPMorgan Funds, because the moves
were likely being exacerbated by low
trading activity during the summer
months.
Its another sign of softness in the
global economy and thats what is
hurting the market today, Kelly said.
But I wouldnt make too much of the
violent reaction because its a rather
thin market to say the least.
Google was one of the biggest gainers in the S&P 500 on Tuesday.
The tech giant gained after it
announced a new structure for the company that included separating its lucrative internet business from some of its
more speculative research projects.

Hackers accused of making $100M by peeking at press releases

By David Porter
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEWARK, N.J. An international web

of hackers and traders made $100 million on
Wall Street by stealing a look at corporate
press releases before they went out and then
trading on that information ahead of the
pack, federal authorities charged Tuesday.
Authorities said it was the biggest
scheme of its kind ever prosecuted, and one
that demonstrated another alarming vulnerability in the financial system in this age of
increasingly sophisticated cybercrime.
In a 21st-century twist on insider trading,
the hackers broke into the computers of
some of the biggest business newswire

Rite Aid stores no

longer shun Apple Pay
SAN FRANCISCO Rite Aid stores will
start accepting Apples mobile payment
system, Apple Pay, later this month after
initially shunning the service in favor of a
rival system.
The pharmacy and retail chain says it will
begin accepting Apple Pay and other tap
and pay services at its 4,600 stores on
Aug. 15. It also plans to accept Googles
revamped Android Pay service when its
released for mobile devices later this year.
Rite Aid was one of several retailers,
including Walmart, that have not worked
with Apple Pay since the digital service
launched last year, while they were part of a

services, which put out earnings announcements and other press releases for a multitude of corporations.
Nine people in the U.S. and Ukraine were
indicted on federal criminal charges, including securities fraud, computer fraud and conspiracy. And the Securities and Exchange
Commission brought civil charges against
the nine plus 23 other people and companies in the U.S. and Europe.
The case illustrates the risks posed for
our global markets by todays sophisticated
hackers, SEC chief Mary Jo White said.
Todays international case is unprecedented in terms of the scope of the hacking at
issue, the number of traders involved, the
number of securities unlawfully traded and

the amount of profits generated.

The nine indicted include two people
described as Ukrainian computer hackers
and six stock traders. Prosecutors said the
defendants made $30 million from their part
of the scheme.
Authorities said that beginning in 2010
and continuing as recently as May, the hackers gained access to more than 150,000 press
releases that were about to be issued by
Marketwired of Toronto; PR Newswire in New
York; and Business Wire of San Francisco.
The press releases contained earnings figures
and other corporate information.
The defendants then used roughly 800 of
those news releases to make trades before
the information came out, exploiting a time

gap ranging from hours to three days, prosecutors said.

A strong earnings report or other positive
news can cause a companys stock to rise,
while disappointing news can make it fall.
The conspirators typically used the advance
information to buy stock options, which are
essentially a bet on the direction a stock
will move.
In 2013, for example, the hackers got an
early peek at a press release from Panera
Bread Co. announcing that it was lowering
its earnings projections. The hacking ring
bet correctly the stock would fall when the
news came out, and turned a profit of about
$1 million the very next day, according to
the indictment.

The move was cheered by analysts who
said the under-performing division was a
drag on the company. But Symantecs stock
tumbled almost 7 percent after the company
reported revenue and earnings below estimates for the last quarter.
The Mountain View company said
Tuesday that the private equity investment
firm The Carlyle Group and Singapores
sovereign wealth fund, GIC, will acquire the
business in a deal expected to close Jan 1.
Shares of Symantec closed Tuesday down
$1.57 to $21.34. The stock is down almost
17 percent so far this year. The Standard &

about 1 percent.

Anderson to lead M-A volleyball program

By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

It was a bit of a surprise when MenloAtherton announced varsity volleyball head

coach Ron Whitmill was stepping down after
three successful seasons.
But the Vision carousel produced a promising replacement in new head coach Fletcher
Anderson.
Whitmill a coach at the prestigious
Vision Volleyball Club in Los Altos
resigned his post at M-A in June after his Lady
Bears won their second Central Coast Section

Division I championship
in three years. He will take
over as varsity head coach
at Valley Christian-San
Jose this season.
The position at Valley
Christian opened up when
another Vision coach, Jeff
Kim, resigned to relocate
to
Baltimore.
And
Fletcher
Anderson,
the
co-head
Anderson
coach of Vision 16-Blue,
was in line to take over at M-A per Whitmills
recommendation.

Ron liked him a lot, M-A co-athletic

director Paul Snow said. He told us hed be
interested and that he could help with the transition. So he was Rons recommendation, but
we still put him through the ringer to make
sure he can handle it.
Anderson had already come aboard at M-A as
an assistant coach. A personal trainer at Bay
Club Courtside in Los Gatos for the past four
years, Andersons initial varsity department
was as the strength-and-conditioning coach.
Two weeks later, Whitmill resigned with
Anderson in place to apply for the head coach
job.

I was a little bit apprehensive at first

because Ive never coached a high school program before, Anderson said. But now that
Ive accepted it, Im kind of running with it.
Anderson does have experience as a high
school assistant coach, having served two
seasons at M-A under former head coach
Jennifer Wilson. He also coached at the Bay to
Bay Volleyball Club before moving to Vision
four years ago.
Losing just two graduating seniors from last
years starting lineup, M-A looks to have a

Tinsley wraps up grueling season on the Cape

reports on everybody. I was able to have a
good season batting in the middle of the
order. So it will be interesting to see how that
gets broken down (by opposing pitchers)
going into next year.
A Menlo Park native, Tinsley didnt
encounter too many familiar faces upon
arriving in the Big 12. He did, however,
come across a former Serra teammate in the
Cape Cod League when the Commodores
took on Sean Watkins and the Orleans
Firebirds July 7.
It was an off-day for Tinsley, who was getting loose for bullpen catching duties when
he heard Watkins name announced as the
starting pitcher.
I was really mad [I wasnt playing] as
soon as I figured out he was starting,
Tinsley said.
As a high school senior, Tinsley caught
the then junior Watkins for one season at
Serra. Tinsleys evaluation of Watkins after
seeing him throw on the Cape is that the
right-hander out of Loyola Marymount has
really filled out.
He looked pretty big, Tinsley said. Its
been a few years since Ive seen him and hes
grown up as a player. [In high school] he
was just the typical two-way guy throw
hard and had a good breaking ball. From what
I saw when he was pitching against us, he
had a good changeup and his breaking ball

was better.
Tinsley isnt immune to the dream of going
pro next year, but said he is keeping his baseball career in perspective.
Every kids dream is to be drafted,
Tinsley said. I would love to be drafted. That
would be amazing. But I also know the coldness of the draft, so I cant really think about
that as the only option. Im keeping focus
on the college team because the only guarantee I have right now is playing for the
University of Kansas.
The Cape Cod League is slated to conclude
this week, with the Yarmouth-Dennis Red
Sox and the Hyannis Harbor Hawks currently
tied 1-1 in the best-of-three championship
series. The Red Sox leading hitter is
Stanford infielder Tommy Edman, who is batting .318 while anchoring the shortstop
position.
Hes a very fundamentally sound baseball
player in every respect, said Mikey
Diekroeger, Edmans fellow infielder at
Stanford. He does everything right. He
knows how to play baseball.
A Cape Cod All-Star this season, Edman
helped even the championship series after
Yarmouth-Dennis dropped Sundays opener
8-1. Monday in Game 2, Edman went 3 for 5
with a home run in a 9-3 Red Sox win. Game
3 was posted due to rain Tuesday and has been
rescheduled for Wednesday.

NFL brief
Judge pressures NFL, union,
Brady to settle lawsuit
NEW YORK A federal judge took a peacemakers role
Tuesday, urging New England quarterback Tom Brady and
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell to find common ground
to settle differences before he lowers the gavel on a controversy over deflated footballs.
U.S. District Judge Richard M. Berman asked Brady and
Goodell to engage in further good faith settlement
efforts a day before they meet in Manhattan federal court
for the first time.
Brady was not at Patriots training camp on Tuesday.
Two weeks ago, the NFL sued its players union, asking
Berman to declare that Goodell followed the leagues collective bargaining agreement with the NFL Players
Association when he suspended Brady for four games after
concluding the quarterback had to know balls were purposefully deflated.
The union countersued to block the suspension, saying a
June arbitration hearing Goodell presided over was a sham
and Brady was punished severely for something he was
never warned about and for which there was no precedent.
Berman directed lawyers, including Brady and Goodell,
to update him in private Wednesday about settlement negotiations a half hour before they appear in court.

Michael Tinsley working class hero.

After catching all but one Big 12
Conference game at the University of Kansas
in the spring, Tinsley got thrown into the
Cape Cod League fire with the Falmouth
Commodores.
At the outset of the season, in the most
prestigious collegiate summer league in the
nation, Tinsley spent the first week as the
teams only catcher. Before relief arrived in
Week 2, the former Serra star caught seven
games in six days, finishing with a flourish
by catching all 16 innings of a doubleheader
July 14 against the Chatham Anglers.
I had to catch almost all the games at
Kansas, but nothing really compared to
catching that volume of games in that
amount of time, Tinsley said. So, it was a
grind but it was fun.
The workload took its toll on the left-handed hitting Tinsley though. After a spring in
which he anchored the middle of the
Jayhawks order batting .337 with a teambest 39 RBIs, Tinsley struggled in his first
season on the Cape. He hit .228 with two
home runs and just three RBIs in 92 at-bats.
Before ending his season prematurely July
12 due to a wrist injury, however, Tinsley was
finally getting cooking. Over his final two

weeks, he hit .297 (11 for

37), including home runs
in back-to-back games
during what would be his
final weekend of the season.
Right
before the
injury, I was just getting
really hot after going
Michael Tinsley through the initial learning curve, Tinsley said.
Towards the end I was starting to get into a
groove, then it's like great, youre
injured.
Tinsley suffered two partial ligament tears
in his left wrist. The prognosis was a shortterm injury, he said. He expects to be back on
the field in two weeks, and ready for the fall
ball season for his junior year at Kansas.
Entering his first draft-eligible season,
Tinsley said hes more mindful of turning
around a Jayhawks team that finished in the
cellar of the Big 12 in 2015. After hitting
.362 in part-time action as a freshman in
2014, he knows opposing pitchers will be
gunning for him next year after ranking seventh in the race for the Big 12 batting crown
this year.
I feel like Ive made a good name for
myself, Tinsley said. The pitching in the
Big 12 is amazing just like the Cape is, but
the difference is you have a lot of scouting

holes. Mickelson responded by hitting his tee shot pin high,
to 8 feet, on the 223-yard par 3, then making the putt for birdie
to win the hole.
That set up some drama on 18, when Fowler drained a 20foot birdie putt, forcing Spieth to knock one in from about 5
feet to halve the whole, keep the lead in the overall game and
end up even in the betting.
Which, of course, is what really counts on days like this.
You dont want to lose and have to hand those guys whatever you play for, said Spieth, who goes for his third major of
the season when the real golf starts Thursday. Theres a little bit of nerves strictly because of bragging rights. And also
because it means something.
Nobody reveals the stakes. Suffice to say its not a $2
Nassau. The combined career earnings of the four players is
more than $135 million.
Thomas, a 22-year-old tour rookie making his second
appearance in a major, has won only $2 million of that. His
entry into this game is another longstanding tradition of
Mickelsons. In addition to getting sharp for the grinding
week ahead, Mickelson sets up these games to give the young
players the taste of pressure and, specifically, pressure in a
team game, the likes of which they play every year on the U.S.
side in the Presidents or Ryder Cups.
If I go out and play on a Tuesday, I dont get much out of it,
Thomas said. You lose focus. You kind of hit shots that dont
mean anything. Every shot means something on a day like
today. The nerves can get going.
Anticipating the showdown with Mickelson, Spieth suggested last week that he might bring the U.S. Open trophy he
won at Chambers Bay and place it on every green. Its the only
major trophy Lefty has yet to win. Its the first time I have
something on him, Spieth said.
But it never came to that.
Less is more, Spieth said, when going against Mickelson, a
Grade A trash talker who once made copies of the $100 bills he
won off Tiger Woods, drew smiley faces on them and placed
them in Woods locker, along with a note telling Tiger the
Benjamins were very happy in their new home.
He doesnt like it if youre quiet, Spieth said about
Mickelson. If you give it back to him, thats when he knows
its bothering you.
And so, after Thomas made the 20 footer on 16 to go 2 up
with two to go, he passed Fowler and gave him a nice slap on
the butt. That, along with Spieths shout, were the winning
teams most outward displays of emotion.
With money still on the line on the 18th green, Fowler made
his long putt, then high-fived and shared a Ryder Cup-esque
hug with Mickelson. Then, they stood almost directly behind
Spieth as he lined up a fairly simple 5-footer to ensure he and
Thomas would break even.
Spieth made it. Never a doubt.
Me making (my) putt was to save some money, Fowler
said. And it was nice to walk away with that.
After his final make, Spieth simply offered a meek bow
toward Mickelson, who brought him into these games a few
years back.
The four posed on the green for some pictures. A friendly
close to a bloodless, but still-entertaining day.
It was a great match, Spieth said. We had a good time with
it. And we kept Phil quiet most of the day.

Messi curled two direct free-kicks past Sevilla goalkeeper Beto in the seventh and 16th minutes and was a
constant threat in attack with throughout the first half,
though he made less of a mark after the break.
Barcelonas third came shortly before halftime when
Luis Suarez pounced on the rebound after his shot was parried by Beto and crossed for Rafinha to score.
Suarez grabbed a goal in the 52nd minute following a

Jays end As win streak

By Ian Harrison
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

TORONTO Matched up against the hottest

team in baseball, one inning of bad defense
turned into big trouble for the Oakland
Athletics.
Jose Bautista hit a solo home run, Drew
Hutchison pitched seven strong innings and the
streaking Toronto Blue Jays took advantage of
two Oakland errors to win their ninth straight
game, 4-2 over the Athletics.
Toronto scored three times in Oaklands sloppy second inning, which saw a throwing error,
a fielding error, and a ball that bounced over the
head of outfielder Coco Crisp.
That might be the worst inning weve played
this year, Oakland manager Bob Melvin said.
All the way around, we basically gave them the
whole inning. It should have been a different
game if we played any kind of defense that
inning.
Oakland was off Monday after winning the
previous three days, but the rest didnt seem to
do much good.
We had a day off, Melvin fumed. It looked
like we had about five off in the first couple
innings.
Its the first time in Blue Jays history the team
has recorded two nine-game winning streaks in
a season. Toronto won a season-high 11
straight in June.
Blue Jays starting pitchers have held the
opposition to three earned runs or fewer in 15
consecutive games.
Hutchison (11-2) allowed two runs and four
hits in seven-plus innings. The right-hander
hadnt completed seven innings since a complete-game victory over the Chicago White Sox
on May 25.
Oaklands Marcus Semien said Hutchison
got quick outs when he needed to against the
last-place Athletics.
I had one at-bat where I got 0-2 pretty quick
and it seemed like he had the ability to do that all
night, Semien said.
Hutchison is 9-1 with a 2.68 ERA in 12 home

starts and 2-1 with a 9.00 ERA in 11 road outings.

After the first two Oakland batters singled in
the third, Hutchison got Crisp to ground into a
double play, starting a streak in which he set
down 14 of 15.
Hutchison left to a standing ovation after
Semiens infield single to begin the eighth
inning. Aaron Sanchez came on and surrendered
an RBI single to Billy Burns but escaped by
striking out Crisp looking and getting Josh
Reddick on a comebacker.
Roberto Osuna finished for his 11th save.
The Blue Jays thought they had turned a double play to end the top of the first but a replay
challenge showed Reddick beat out shortstop
Troy Tulowitzkis relay throw. Former Toronto
infielder Danny Valencia followed with an RBI
double past a diving Kevin Pillar in center, giving the Athletics a 1-0 lead.
Oaklands run snapped a stretch of 26 consecutive scoreless innings by Blue Jays pitchers, a
streak that began in the third inning of Fridays
10-inning victory over the New York Yankees.
The Brewers are in last place in the NL
Central.
Milwaukee is rebuilding, having fired manager Ron Roenicke in May and replaced him with
Craig Counsell.
The Brewers are 48-65, with the second-worst
record in the NL. This follows the late-season
collapse in 2014 when the Brewers fell out of
first place and the playoff race.
Melvin joined the Brewers on Sept. 26, 2002
as the eighth general manager in the teams history. A team starving for success won the NL
wild card in 2008 and the NL Central in 2011.

he has treatable lymphoma
MINNEAPOLIS Flip Saunders
had quite a challenge on his hands
when he returned to Minnesota two

was starting to turn the corner, a
new challenge has presented itself.

stable core of experience returning to the varsity squad.
Of course, one of the graduates was Peninsula Athletic
League Bay Division Most Valuable Player Devin Joos,
who is now on roster as a freshman at UC Santa Barbara.
Anderson coached one M-A player at Vision over the
summer in first-year varsity junior Casey Olsen.
Otherwise, he said he expects the nine returning players
highlighted by third-year starting varsity setter, junior Kirby Knapp to continue to run like clockwork.
I expect to do pretty well, Anderson said. I dont
know if I can fill Rons shoes completely, but weve
got some good talent too, so as long as I dont screw
anything up, (the team will be fine).
The one change Anderson said he plans to implement
is a more extensive strength-and-conditioning program.
If anything else, we should be the hardest working
team, Anderson said.
Anderson knows about hard work after an extensive
playing career. He was a star outside hitter in high
school, ranking in Volleyball Magazines Fab 50 coming out of Los Gatos in 2004. He played two years as
Golden West College-Huntington Beach, earning team
MVP honors both years, including a freshman season in
which the team advanced to the state final four.
As a transfer to Long Beach State, he advanced to the
NCAA final four as a senior in 2007. But his claim to
fame came when he and a teammate appeared in a quick

ing chemotherapy. He plans to

remain the Timberwolves head
coach and top executive while being
treated.
The 60-year-old Saunders returned
to the Timberwolves as team president in 2013. Last year, he replaced
the retired Rick Adelman on the
bench and the team finished 16-66.
Even while undergoing treatment,
Saunders remained active with the
team, overseeing draft workouts,
selecting Karl-Anthony Towns at
No. 1 overall and trading for Tyus
Jones on draft night in June.

After graduating in 2008, he played professionally for
two seasons in Europe.
Snow said he anticipates a seamless transition
Anderson taking over the accomplished Bears squad. Of
the five applicants M-A considered for the job, two were
brought in for a practice session with many of the current players. A few days after Snows audition, he was
offered the job.
Of course we want to keep the competitive edge,
Snow said. We have some good talent and some young
players still. We feel like we can qualify and still compete for a CCS title again.
At Valley Christian, Whitmill takes over a program
that has won three consecutive CCS
Division III championships.
We have no hard feelings towards
him, Snow said. He was definitely a
great coach for us and we wish him
well at Valley Christian.
Whitmill called a team meeting at
M-A in late May to tell his players he
and assistant coach Sammi Miller
would not be returning for the 2015
season. Knapp said every player shed
some tears at the announcement in
the M-A gymnasium.
We were all really sad, Knapp
said. We just loved having Ron and
Sammi as coaches. We all just really connected as a family. So we felt
like were losing a family member.

Dawson enjoys role as mentor to rookie punter

By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SANTA CLARA Ones the oldest on the team by a long

shot at 40 and entering his 17th NFL season. The other is a
poised rookie and the 49ers youngest player who just
turned 21 in June.
Veteran placekicker Phil Dawson is thoroughly enjoying
his role as mentor for strong-legged punter Bradley Pinion,
and the two have spent their time early in training camp
finding a rhythm and learning each others tendencies.
During practice, Dawson and Pinion slap hands after a
field goal before moving back and trying again from farther
out. They have lockers next to each other in Levis Stadium.
Were building camaraderie, Dawson said after a recent
workout. Its going to take some time, but man, hes super
talented. Hes got a great attitude. Its just going to come
with reps and reps and he understands that. I understand that,
so its just every day we come out, put a little more work in.
The goal is to be ready Week 1. If we have a hiccup here or
there in preseason, thats not what were aiming for, but the
goal is Week 1, be ready to rock and roll.
In the months since the 49ers selected him in the fifth

round of the draft, Pinion has done just

about everything possible to show he
belongs as a rookie: He has a strong
foot, his punts have serious hang time
and theyre tricky to catch with plenty of
spin, and he has clicked with Dawson
since Day 1.
The 49ers felt so confident in Pinion
they traded three-time All Pro Andy Lee
Phil Dawson to Cleveland.
Coach Jim Tomsula guards against
becoming too giddy observing the impressive young
punter and he is awfully fun to watch.
Again, Bradleys not done a thing with a live rush or
anything. So, I want to make sure we temper that, Tomsula
said. But yes, we all see the same things on the field with
the talent. Its there.
Dawson and Pinion have worked tirelessly to find their
timing together, striking a bond in the process.
I enjoy still learning, Dawson said. I get a super talented kid who can do some special things with the football,
and as someone who studies kicking and punting and is
always looking to learn, its a new guy to learn from and

another new friend to make.

Pinion spent the mandatory June minicamp working to
find a rapport with Dawson, who didnt attend optional
organized team activities this offseason.
The 6-foot-5, 229-pound Pinion returned home to North
Carolina after minicamp to work with kicking coach Dan
Orner, and believes he made strides in his holding.
That was something I want Phil to feel as comfortable as
possible. Hes an awesome guy, hes really taught me a lot,
Pinion said. Im looking forward to getting out there and
doing what I know I can do. Hopefully, the coaches like it.
Special teams coordinator Thomas McGaughey Jr. said
the two will compete to handle kickoff duties, perhaps a
way to keep Dawson focused strictly on his field goals.
Dawson converted all 33 of his extra points last year and hit
25 of 31 field goals.
Theres nothing new under the sun. Theyre both very
talented. Phils done it for a long time, McGaughey said.
Bradley has a great, young leg and well see how it shakes
out.
The returners have been challenged to catch Pinions
punts.
He has a boot, he can really kick it. In the spring there
was a punt, it was like 65 yards before it even hit the
ground, linebacker Nick Moody said.
As so many other 49ers walked away from football during
the offseason, Dawson never considered it.
Not one second. When I signed this deal two years ago, I
told you guys I expected to perform at an elite level for the
term and then some, he said. Im more encouraged now
that I can do that than I was two years ago when I signed it.
I feel better, I feel stronger. I expect big things and Im really excited to let it rip this fall.

DAVIS
Continued from page 11
home following a cross-country flight from New York in
November despite feeling loopy from a concussion he didnt initially realize was so severe. Davis was experiencing
symptoms after he took an elbow to the head during the
Nov. 16 victory over the Giants. He missed the next four
games before returning for the Niners last two contests.
Davis started all 71 games in which he had appeared, as
well as eight playoff games.
Davis was followed in the draft by fellow 49ers first-round
pick offensive lineman Mike Iupati, who joined the NFC
West rival Arizona Cardinals in free agency for the 2015
season.

A little quinoa can improve almost any dish

By Melissa DArabian
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

To know me is to know that I love quinoa.

This little seed masquerades as a grain,
which means you get a complete, lean, vegetarian protein that you can make the star of
a meal or serve as a side dish.
Parenting tip: If your kids dont warm up
to quinoas nutty flavor and texture right
away, start by introducing them to brown
rice, then whole-wheat couscous and then
try quinoa again. My kids love to top quinoa
with marinara sauce and Parmesan cheese to
shake things up on spaghetti night.
You can cook quinoa on the stovetop or in
a rice cooker, but nothing beats the
microwave for convenience. For every cup
of dry quinoa (a brief rinse will remove any
bitterness), add 1 1/4 cups of water and
cook, covered, for approximately 12 minutes on high. I like to cook up a big batch of
quinoa once and keep it in the refrigerator
for recipes all week.
Need ideas? Toss it with chopped fresh
herbs, shallot, cucumber, lemon juice and
olive oil for a refreshing tabbouleh; saute
with sweet peppers and onion, chicken or
shrimp, soy chorizo and a dash of saffron
for the worlds easiest take on paella; or
grill up fish and veggies at your next barbecue and serve them on a large platter lined
with herbed quinoa and drizzled with a mustardy vinaigrette.
Quinoa also can be used as a nutritionboosting accessory. Toss a few spoons of
cooked quinoa into your smoothie, pancake
or waffle recipes, oatmeal or even omelets.
And I almost cant think of a salad that
wouldnt benefit from a sprinkling of
quinoa! In this weeks recipe, quinoa shares
the spotlight with another healthy choice

broccoli. Its picnic perfect.

HEARTY QUINOA AND BROCCOLI SLAW

Start to Finish: 20 minutes
Servings: 4
For the dressing:
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon light mayonnaise
1 tablespoon red or white wine vinegar
1 to 2 tablespoons orange juice (reserved
from cutting the oranges)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup low-fat plain Greek yogurt
For the slaw:
1 small head broccoli, chopped into very
small florets (about 3 cups)
1 Italian turkey sausage, casing removed,
cooked, cooled and crumbled (about 1/4 cup
crumbles)
1 1/2 cups cooked quinoa
2 scallions, chopped
1/4 cup chopped toasted almonds
1 orange, skin trimmed and cut into segments (cut over a bowl to reserve juice)
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
To make the dressing, in a small bowl
whisk together all ingredients. Set aside.
To prepare the slaw, in a large bowl, combine the broccoli, sausage, quinoa and scallions. Pour the dressing over the slaw and
toss well to coat. Add the chopped almonds
and orange segments, then gently toss.
Season with salt and pepper, then let stand
for 15 minutes (refrigerated, if desired) to
allow flavors to meld.

Burger King: One Direction, Buzzfeed spurred chicken fries

By Candice Choi
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Fans of Burger Kings

chicken fries may have the boy band One
Direction and the website Buzzfeed to thank
for the return of the skinny fried sticks.
At an event to hype a spicy version of the
chicken fries coming out this week, Burger
King said it decided to resurrect the fries last
year after seeing the enthusiasm they generated on social media.
Eric Hirschhorn, chief marketing officer
for Burger King North America, said the company noticed a spike in chicken fry mentions
in January 2014 that was traced to a Buzzfeed
post titled 35 Foods From Your Childhood
That Are Extinct Now.
One of the items on the list was chicken
fries, which Burger King sold between 2005
and 2012.
A few months later, Hirschhorn says there
was an even bigger surge when a One
Direction member mentioned them. The company pointed to a tweet by Liam Payne that
reads, Im so fulllllll!!! Think I just ate my

body weight in chicken fries and sides

owwwwww.
The tweet, which has more than 94,000
retweets, is confusing because Burger King
hadnt yet brought back chicken fries. That
raises the possibility that Payne just left out
a comma, and meant to say he ate chicken and
fries not chicken fries.
A preceding tweet also made it appear that
Payne was eating at KFC, noted business
news outlet Entrepreneur. That tweet included
an image of Colonel Sanders and the words
the kernel god bless you and your original
recipe.
A representative for Payne said the singer
wasnt available for comment. A Burger King
representative said in an email: Whatever he
meant, it certainly helped catapult Chicken
Fries into pop culture consciousness as a follow up to the Buzzfeed story.
Even if Burger King misinterpreted Paynes tweet, it worked out
for the company. The return of
chicken fries as a limited-time
offer last summer was successful
enough that Burger King added them to its

permanent menu this March. A nine-piece

box costs around $3.
Hirschhorn said people tend to get them as
an extra, which drives up the amount people
spend. Last month, Burger Kings parent
company Restaurant Brands International
said sales rose 7.9 percent at established
stores in the U.S. and Canada for the latest
quarter.
Burger King may have
brought back chicken fries
even without the social
media encouragement.
Since being taken
over by investment
firm 3G
Cap i t al ,
the chain

has leaned heavily on its past for ideas. In

addition the King and Subservient Chicken
characters, it has resurrected its Big King
sandwich and

should be spent prior to considering new
ordinances.
The issue of affordable housing is critical for San Mateo County, more than perhaps anywhere else. I think its probably
the wealthiest county there is overall and we
have a huge shortage of affordable housing.
But even our affordable housing programs
really dont deal with folks who need it more
than anything else, Bronitsky said.
Whats now considered below-market-rate
rent is still extremely costly, particularly
for those making minimum wage,
Bronitsky said. According to the study, a
typical market-rate rent for a two-bedroom
Foster City unit is about $3,700. Those
who would be considered as very lowincome earners typically make about
$50,000 a year and can only afford about
$1,220 per month, according to a staff
report. Currently, there are thousands of
households on the waiting lists for just a
few affordable units in the city, according to
the report.
Even while the council may be considering how the booming business of residen-

will approve increasing the portion of filing fees that fund the libraries, Gurthet said.
In 2014-15, the library was funded
through 14,165 filings, the lowest number
of filing since 1974.
In 1988, the library was funded by a record

tial and office space development could

assist, numerous Foster City residents have
raised concerns about more units being constructed while adamantly opposing several
recent proposals.
Theyre concerned about housing, which
is a valid concern, but if we create more
affordable workforce housing, that would
keep some of those cars off the road,
because they would be living and working
here in Foster City. So I think thats something that residents have to start understanding, Councilman Steve Okamoto
said.
With large corporations like Visa Inc.
headquartered in the city and biotech booming with Gilead Sciences and Illumina Inc.
slated to bring thousands of new employees
to Foster City, some note there will be
inevitable impacts if more housing isnt
available.
You have all these new developments
that are going to increase traffic and the
only way youre going to ameliorate that is
for those people to live and work in the
city. But there isnt any new inventory and
the residents in the city dont want any new
inventory, Councilman Herb Perez said.
With traffic another common concern
among Foster City residents who are bordered by State Route 92 and Highway 101,
addressing the lack of affordable housing

could help, Bronitsky and Perez said.

Its a bigger systemic issue we need to
deal with you see the impact today every
time you drive across the San Mateo Bridge
because people cant afford to live on the
Peninsula, Bronitsky said. We have limited freeway access, almost nonexistent public transportation; so youve got to factor
all those things in to the long-term plan if
you want to build more housing, more
office, more anything.
While some would like to promote inclusionary zoning for new residential developments meaning the affordable units must
be built on site and integrated into a project
collecting fees for smaller housing
developments and commercial projects is a
big component of the proposed policy
changes.
Staff suggested a range of programs on
which the money could be spent, such as
subsidizing rents or creating homebuyer
loan programs. While the funds may be used
to construct new units, the city no longer
owns undeveloped property and it could take
years to collect enough impact fees to make

number of filings at 27,800.

It is unclear why there is a drop but there
is speculation, Gurthet said.
Some theories include that more people
are opting to take the mediation or arbitration route rather than solving disputes
through the courts. Court consolidation,
the increase of Small Claims limits to
$10,000 and an improving economy may
also be a factor.
In decades past, the library was mostly

used by practicing attorneys but now about

50 percent of the librarys users come from
the general public, Gurthet said.
Law libraries are looking to find a longerterm solution that is not tied to the ups and
downs of court filings, which has forced
Gurthet to trim about $120,000 from the
budget.
The Redwood City law library will celebrate its 100th anniversary in 2016.

a dent in the high cost of development.

Instead, Okamoto said hed be interested
in having the city contribute funds to San
Mateo County nonprofits that focus on
affordable housing such as the Housing
Endowment and Regional Trust, or HEART,
as well as HIP Housing.
Bronitsky said hed like to see a more
thorough plan outlining the need, exactly
where the money would be spent and engage
with stakeholders such as developers and
the Foster City Chamber of Commerce for a
more comprehensive solution.
Perez said he hopes the City Council will
take a broader look at what can be done during its annual priority setting session in
January.
Before we see all this stuff piecemeal, we
need a plan. This community needs to sit
down with all the stakeholders and talk
about every issue thats before us and talk
about a global plan, Perez said.
Everybody needs to be involved in the
conversation and everybody needs to do
their part. And if everybody does their part,
it works. But if you look at just the city to
solve it, or the developers to solve it or the
corporations to solve it; it wont work.

BUDGET
Continued from page 1
services, as officials believe the program can be run in a more cost-efficient fashion by using district personnel.
While faced with a potentially devastating deficit last year which caused
officials to bandy a variety of difficult
budget decisions, alternatives for the
special education transportation system were discussed as a way to cut
costs.
Under a recommendation to the
board, the district stands to trim
$60, 000 off its special education
transportation costs in the upcoming
year, and later add $90,000 in savings
over subsequent years.
Purchasing three vans, hiring parttime drivers and changing the route
system could reduce the districts annual expenditures on special education
transportation from $450,000 down to
$300,000 by next school year, according to a district report.
Sean McGinn, assistant superintendent of business services, said the district is hoping to find savings by
streamlining the transportation system.
Our focus at this point is cost efficiency, he said.
The cost of outsourcing special education transportation has nearly doubled in the past three years, according
to the report, and implementing the
recommended changes could drive the
expense down to levels near what the
district paid in 2012.
Keeping the amount of routes taken
by drivers as low as possible is the
most integral factor in keeping costs
down, according to the report, and
adding the new vans will allow
increased flexibility for creating more
efficient trips.
A portion of the districts special
education transportation service would

I cant really imagine what could be

act.

continue to be outsourced, but hiring

the recommended six part-time drivers
would enhance the districts ability to
control its costs.
The district is responsible for transportation of about 40 students enrolled
in the special education system, which
sends students to a variety of nearby
cities
such
as
Pacifica and
Hillsborough, said McGinn.
While facing a deficit which required
nearly $2.5 million in cuts last year,
maintenance personnel suggested the
district operate the special education
transportation service, rather than hiring a third-party company to run the
system.
Thanks to an influx of state funding
in May, officials were able to back
away from an additional round of
severe cuts which had included possibly shuttering a campus in coming
years.
Ultimately, the district was able to
finish the previous fiscal year with a
deficit near $1 million, but projections are rosier going into the immediate future, as officials anticipate the
next fiscal year will allow for a salary
hike worth about 6 percent to district
staff while showing a surplus of more
than $200, 000, according to the
report.
Teachers had threatened to strike last
year, due to what they claimed was
insufficient pay comparable to the rest
The toddler, Evelyn Castillo, was
found unconscious and unresponsive
in an apartment in the 400 block of
Madison Avenue around 2:30 p. m.
Thursday after police and medics were
called to the scene.
Contreras claimed the toddler fell
from a table but an autopsy on Friday
determined the death was a homicide.
In a rare move, Judge Hugo Borja
allowed two television cameras into
the courtroom as Contreras was being
arraigned.
Contreras said he understood the
complaint against him and will be represented by the countys Private
Defender Program. The arraignment

of the region, but backed down after

accepting a salary hike contingent on
the amount of additional state revenue
offered to the district.
The district is not out of the woods
financially yet, as a deficit worth more
than $700,000 is projected next year,
and $500,000 in the subsequent year,
according to a district report.
Officials will continue searching for
additional sources of cost efficiency,
with the intention of being able to
compensate teachers and other
employees at a rate comparable with
other nearby districts, said McGinn.
Weve got to get where we are competing as just another district, and San
Bruno is viable not just for employees, but for the kids, he said.
The current projected surplus is the
only the district has enjoyed since the
2012-13 fiscal year, according to the
report.
As the districts financial footing
improves, the board will also consider
reinstating the monthly stipend
trustees are paid for their service.
Trustees stopped receiving payments in 2008, when they received
$240 per month for one meeting.
The board has the option to approve
reinstating a maximum monthly compensation of $240, set its own lower
rate, or continue to offer service voluntarily.
The district also has the option of
providing health and welfare benefits
to board members, and there is flexibility allowed in selecting the types of
coverage and the methods of payment.
Benefits for trustees cannot be more
than what district employees with the
most generous schedule of benefits
receive, according to the state education code.
The board will meet Wednesday, Aug.
12, in the district office, 500 Acacia
Ave. The meeting begins at 7 p.m.

Acquaintances of Contreras attended
the court proceeding but declined to
speak to the press.
Contreras, who was dating Evelyns
mother, had been caring for the toddler
at the time of her death, according to
prosecutors.
He is being charged with five felony
counts including murder with special
circumstance of murder during child
molestation; assault on a child resulting in death; oral copulation on a
child; lewd act with a child; and sexual
assault on a child under 10 years old.
He faces a maximum of life without
parole or death, Wagstaffe said.

Terror attacks in Nigeria, Cameroon Cubas tourism

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

the groups spokesman Abbas Gava. Almost all victims are

believed to be traders at the market, Gava said.

MAIDUGURI, Nigeria A bomb blast killed at least 24

people in northeastern Nigeria and hundreds of fighters
invaded a town across the border in Cameroon in attacks
Tuesday that witnesses and officials blame on Boko Haram
Islamic extremists.
These are the latest in a string of bombings and village
raids that have killed hundreds in recent weeks as officials
promise the deployment of a regional army to halt the
Nigerian-born Islamic uprising that has killed some
20,000 in six years and spilled across the West African
nations borders.
In Cameroon, troops repelled an attack on Ashigashia,
killing 10 and forcing the insurgents to retreat, said military spokesman Col. Jaco Kodji. Two soldiers were wounded but no civilians were reported injured, he said.
In the northeastern Nigerian village of Sabon Gari,
civilian defense volunteers collected bodies and body parts
of 24 people who died in an explosion around midday, said

A nurse at Biu hospital 25 miles (40 kilometers) away

said they received more than 20 bodies burned beyond
recognition and are treating 41 survivors.
A regional army of 8,750 troops from five nations was
supposed to be deployed in November but has been
delayed. Nigerias new President Muhammadu Buhari, who
was inaugurated at the end of May, had pledged the force
would be active by the end of July. Delays have been
blamed on funding and uneasy relations between Nigeria
and its neighbors.
The U.S. strongly condemns the attack on the market
and believes the eople of northern Nigeria deserve to live
free from violence and from terror, State Department
spokesman John Kirby said in a statement. Kirby said the
U.S. would continue to provide a range of counter-terrorism assistance to help Nigeria and its regional partners
fight against Boko Haram.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SANTIAGO, Cuba This 500-year-old city smells of fresh

paint and varnish.
Residents stroll along a recently completed harbor promenade under gleaming new streetlights, enjoying sea breezes
while relaxing on newly installed metal benches.
Missing are the tourists. As foreign visitors flood Havana
and a select group of other colonial cities and beach resorts,
Cubas second-largest city is suffering a tourist drought.
Santiago saw less than a tenth of the tourist traffic in
Havana last year and less than a 20th of the visitors to the
beach resort of Varadero even amid large-scale government
investment in renovating the city for its 500th anniversary
this summer. Other Cuban cities are seeing similarly stagnant visitor numbers despite the dramatic surge in overall
tourism set off by the announcement of detente between the
U.S. and Cuba.
Thats raising concerns that a rising tide of tourist dollars
will leave some areas of Cuba booming and others struggling
against a backdrop of broader economic stagnation.
Theyre promoting Havana and the center of the country
but theyve forgotten about Santiago, said Gladys
Domenech, who rents tourists a room in her home in the historic center that features a terrace with a sweeping view of the
Caribbean.
The city sits about 500 miles (800 kilometers) east of
Havana on highways that narrow outside the capital to horrifically rutted roads clogged with horse carts, bicyclists and
stray cows. The journey by road can last 15 hours, and far
longer in Cubas notoriously unreliable and uncomfortable
inter-city buses. Train and domestic plane tickets are virtually impossible to obtain without waiting hours in lines that
may or may not end in satisfaction. There are only three
flights a week from the U.S.
Cruise ships provide a promising new potential source of
visitors, although dockings here remain relatively rare.
